| andar4 | yeah.. my manufacturer is compaq.. they don't exactly make stuff like that readily available | 00:00 |
| tronyx | it's 2point0 NSN|Brainstorm | 00:00 |
| Fryguy-- | rahduke: as a question | 00:00 |
| Xuc | gregory: I want to run Proxomitron (with wine), and after it loads, to run Tvxb. Problem it halts after proxomitron. Only continues after I close it | 00:00 |
| ani1 | !ask | rahduke | 00:00 |
| ubotu | rahduke: 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. :-) | 00:00 |
| NSN|Brainstorm | ah ok, was waiting for ya | 00:00 |
| tronyx | are you registered? | 00:00 |
| tronyx | i sent you a private message, i wasn't sure if you got it | 00:00 |
| Fryguy-- | Xuc: wine support is outside of the scope of this channel | 00:00 |
| andar4 | fryguy is there some other way i can run the fsck? like from a live disk or something? | 00:00 |
| rahduke | I lost access to my second desktop after installing compiz fusion | 00:00 |
| NSN|Brainstorm | in this channel? no think not | 00:01 |
| rahduke | i can drag things to it but i cant get to it | 00:01 |
| Fryguy-- | andar4: run a hard drive diagnostic first | 00:01 |
| rahduke | if that makes any sense | 00:01 |
| Fryguy-- | rahduke: "my second desktop" what do you mean | 00:01 |

| Xuc | Fryguy: wine works.. I am lost with a script... can you give me directions to some channel? | 00:01 |
| Fryguy-- | sorbazz: wrong channel | 00:01 |
| ani1 | !ot | sorbazz | 00:01 |
| ubotu | sorbazz: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 00:01 |
| noble- | sorbazz, why even ask that in a ubuntu channel? | 00:01 |

| === Snoman^ is now known as Snoman`` | ||
| ani1 | rahduke: control alt left or right see if you can switch desktops that way | 00:02 |
| Fryguy-- | xb3rt: then that's apparently what you have to do. hotmail business issues are outside of the scope of this channel | 00:02 |
| rahduke | thats the 1st thing i tried | 00:02 |
| andar4 | fryguy if my disk were dead it wouldn't work right in windows would it? | 00:03 |
| Fryguy-- | andar4: it migth | 00:03 |
| Fryguy-- | andar4: will you just go and run a hard drive diagnostic | 00:03 |
| gregory | Xuc: can you pastebin the script? | 00:03 |
| freak124 | does kde have an alternative for system-->preferences->sessions in gnome? | 00:03 |

| tronyx | NSN|Brainstorm, type, /join #ubuntuforums-beginners please | 00:03 |
| NSN|Brainstorm | Im there | 00:03 |
| ani1 | andar4: it could be a dead sector on the partition where your installing ubuntu i would follow the advise :) | 00:03 |
| Xuc | gregory: pastebin? | 00:03 |
| eisenhower | hey where is firefox located by default? | 00:03 |
| Fryguy-- | eisenhower: type whereis firefox | 00:04 |

| andar4 | ok.. can you maybe tell me how i can find out what hard drive i have so i can get a diagnostic -- because the laptop manufacturer doesnt believe in making tools like that available it seeems | 00:04 |

| rahduke | anyone? | 00:05 |
| Fryguy-- | !repeat | freak124 | 00:05 |

| Fryguy-- | rahduke: probably just edit your xorg.conf file to get the second monitor back, or dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 00:05 |
| Xuc | gregory: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60475/ | 00:05 |

| jga23 | anybody have debs of the newest version of gstreamer and plugins? | 00:07 |

| andar4 | this one from fujitsu is a windows executable :( | 00:07 |

| gregory | Xuc: oh, you might ask in #bash - give them also the pastebin url | 00:07 |

| ani1 | a1fa: you can change the settings when you run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg hit the space bar in the resolutions you want | 00:09 |
| a1fa | i want to run 1024x768 and scale i | 00:09 |
| andar4 | do i have to mount the disk somehow? or how does the command see the disk? | 00:09 |
| a1fa | ani1 : dude, i know.. thats not a solution | 00:09 |
| Fryguy-- | alfa: you'll have to edit xorg.conf manually to get that | 00:09 |

| whileimhere | hi. I'm trying to figure out how to make ubuntu boot into X and then auto open my Wah!Cade program. I do not need a desktop of any kind once it boots so I can save on resources. Anyone know how to do any of this? | 00:15 |
| Fryguy-- | zach382: so what is this about windows bootloader and keeping that. you'll need to explain yourself some more before I can give you meaningful advice | 00:15 |
| amenado | jessica-> were you configuring this with network manager? did you set the ESSID ? | 00:16 |
| rahduke | hey hate to be a pain, but reseting xorg settings didnt help :( | 00:16 |
| TuTUXG_ | Malik_, here is ubuntu channel, ur question should be asked in the compiz channel, what irc client ur using xchat? | 00:16 |
| jessica | yes i have filled in everything correctly | 00:16 |
| ani1 | whileimhere: you can set programs to auto start under sys -> prefs -> sessions | 00:16 |
| keith__ | "sudo ./program > /etc" doesn't work. How do I apply the sudo to the redirection? | 00:16 |
| rahduke | any other tips? | 00:16 |
| Malik_ | TuTUXG_: iam on it | 00:16 |
| WAKD | jessica - check out http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=571046&page=3 | 00:16 |
| jessica | ok thanks | 00:16 |
| Fryguy-- | rahduke: edit xorg.conf manually | 00:16 |
| rahduke | any settings specifically? | 00:17 |
| Fryguy-- | rahduke: and google xinerama for some help on configuring it right | 00:17 |
| rahduke | ok thanks | 00:17 |
| amenado | jessica-> can you paste the results of iwconfig; also if you can iwconfig wlan0 scan if it scans AP in your aread | 00:17 |
| amenado | area | 00:17 |
| whileimhere | ani1: Cool but will that help if I get it to boot into X or will that only work with a given desktop like GNOME? | 00:17 |
| zach382 | Fryguy: Okay lets see. I want to keep the vista bootloader and i have a program on windows that lets me edit the vista bootloader and add options for grub and such. so today i installed ubuntu and i chose not to install grub in the options. I thought i could just install grub onto the same partion ubuntu sits on and not to the mbr. the problem is that now I cant get grub to install at all. | 00:17 |
| Fryguy-- | keith__: probably easier to just become root first complete with sudo su | 00:17 |
| Skiessi | mus4shiii are you here? | 00:18 |
| ani1 | whileimhere: i cant speak for fluxbox or KDE i know for GNOME it will but surly they have the same sort of settings | 00:18 |
| rahduke | hey fry-guy i wasn't talking about dual monitors i was talking about the other desktop u can get to inside ubuntu | 00:18 |
| Fryguy-- | zach382: grub isn't going to work like that, use grub to boot windows, windows bootloader supports basically nothing | 00:18 |
| plux | Fryguy--: to become root use either sudo -s or sudo -i | 00:18 |
| Fryguy-- | rahduke: ?? | 00:18 |

| Fryguy-- | plux: i'm well aware of the various ways of becomming root | 00:18 |
| rahduke | haha you know the extra desktop space dealy where u can drag apps to | 00:18 |
| ani1 | Joe__: is it on any other desktops? | 00:18 |
| whileimhere | ani1: now can you tell me how to stop Ubuntu from booting into the GDM or into a desktop? I just want it to boot directly in Wah!Cade. | 00:18 |
| Joe__ | nope | 00:18 |
| zach382 | Fryguy: no grub will work like that. Ive had it working before i just cant remember or recreate how i did it. And even what you just said would be fine. Except i cant get grub to install at all | 00:19 |
| === Pici` is now known as Pici | ||
| Fryguy-- | rahduke: install compizconfig-settings-manager and edit the keybindings for it i guess | 00:19 |
| amenado | jessica-> try sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart and lets see if your nic responds | 00:19 |
| ani1 | whileimhere: i have no idea what Wha!Cade is if its a WM then you should be able to selection the session at the login screen | 00:19 |
| WAKD | whileimhere - you do need a X server and a window manager to do that mate | 00:19 |
| Joe__ | anil: Checked other desktops, checked wmctrl and it doesn't see it either | 00:19 |
| whileimhere | Wah!Cade is a MAME arcade frontend. | 00:19 |
| Fryguy-- | zach382: no idea why you are doing it the hard way, but ok if you insist. That type of install isn't supported by ubuntu, so nobody in here is going to be able to provide support for you on that. Go google. | 00:19 |
| ani1 | Joe__: hm thats pretty weird have you tried to kill -9 the process and reopen? | 00:20 |
| Joe__ | anil: restarted X as well, was about to restart the whole thing but figured I'd ask here first | 00:20 |
| zach382 | Fryguy: can i be supported on how to reinstall grub? | 00:20 |
| keith__ | Fryguy--: Way to be logical... ;-D That works for now but there has to be a better way | 00:20 |
| jessica | ive tryed restarting my nework and nothing happens | 00:20 |
| whileimhere | I just don't want to waste system resources booting into a full desktop when all I really need is X. | 00:20 |
| Joe__ | anil: yup, a few times... it's quite odd | 00:20 |
| rahduke | hey fryguy i already have it, how do i run the setting program... sorry im retarted | 00:20 |

| ani1 | Joe__: thats pretty weird hopefully someone else in the chan has input i dont have any other ideas :\ | 00:21 |
| Fryguy-- | rahduke: it's in your menu somewhere, or it's probably called compizconfig-settings-manager if you want to press alt-f2 to run it (i'm guessing, i don't use compiz or gnome so) | 00:21 |
| rahduke | i tried | 00:21 |
| rahduke | no go | 00:21 |
| amenado | jessica-> i dont use ndiswrapper..but can you what you have in /lib/modules/`uname -r`/ubuntu/wireless | 00:21 |
| zach382 | Fryguy--: now what happens when "find /boot/grub/stage1" does not work? | 00:21 |

| Joe__ | anyone here been in any of the testing for 8.04? | 00:25 |
| Fryguy-- | Joe__: #ubuntu+1 for hardy issues | 00:25 |
| fbc | bastid_raZor, I'll check them out thanks | 00:25 |
| dda | Fryguy--, thanks! Is there a way to make sure that that is the reason? | 00:25 |
| ani1 | Joe__: #ubuntu+1 | 00:25 |
| Fryguy-- | dda: no idea | 00:25 |
| Joe__ | thanks | 00:25 |
| tators | I installed gparted | 00:26 |
| tators | I can't find it tho to use it | 00:26 |
| dda | Fryguy--, okay :). I'll try a data CD now... I did not rip, just created image. | 00:26 |
| tators | how do you actually partition the drive | 00:26 |
| Fryguy-- | tators: press alt-f2 to run it if it's not in your menu (assuming you are running gnome) | 00:26 |
| askand | Is there a way to mount or convert ISZ files in ubuntu? | 00:26 |
| dem0nk1d_ | how do i disable from boot into X | 00:26 |
| dem0nk1d_ | ubuntu doesn't use a initrd, how can i set boot to runlevel 3 | 00:26 |
| ani1 | tators: gksudo gparted | 00:27 |
| dem0nk1d_ | the box i have is having video card issues/drivers and hits a black screen when done fully booting. so i managed to boot it into single user mode under grub. then installing openssh server/client | 00:27 |
| Fryguy-- | dem0nk1d_: my ubuntu uses an initrd, not sure why you don't | 00:27 |
| dem0nk1d_ | nothing located in /etc | 00:27 |
| dem0nk1d_ | like most of all other distros | 00:27 |
| Fryguy-- | dem0nk1d_: ? | 00:27 |
| dem0nk1d_ | running fluxubuntu | 00:27 |
| dem0nk1d_ | alix1c board | 00:27 |
| amenado | dem0nk1d_-> you are getting /etc/inittab confused | 00:27 |
| Fryguy-- | dem0nk1d_: initrd is a ramdisk loaded at startup alongside the kernel, it has nothing to do with /etc what are yo utalking about | 00:28 |
| xb3rt | does anyone know what 0xa1 means on the keyboard shortcuts | 00:28 |
| dem0nk1d_ | fry: ok you maybe right lol | 00:28 |
| WAKD | xb3rt looks like a hex code for a key mate | 00:28 |
| Fryguy-- | xb3rt: i think it's left control, not sure, i dont' really have the keyboard map memorized :9 | 00:29 |
| peleg | I am looking for a software that knows how to create nice picture-slideshows with music in the background (ogg?), and export it to a movie format of some kind. Do you know any one which is good? | 00:29 |
| dem0nk1d_ | inittab doesn't exist | 00:29 |
| Bossmanbeta | For some reason, when I use nautilus within the last day or so, it locks up when I try to show my HOME dir, when I force it to quit, it pops up again, but freezes again ... any ideas? (I tried to pkill nautilus) and reboots dont work... (Ubuntu Gutsy) | 00:29 |
| amenado | peleg-> you can take a look at wink, a tool to create slides for tutoring | 00:29 |
| dem0nk1d_ | i just need the box to boot into level 3, i have to ssh into to get it to 1/2 ass work | 00:30 |
| dem0nk1d_ | lol | 00:30 |
| dem0nk1d_ | sucks | 00:30 |
| Fryguy-- | Bossmanbeta: put anything strange in your home directory recently? | 00:30 |
| peleg | amenado: thanks! | 00:30 |
| Bossmanbeta | Fryguy--, I had trouble ripping a DVD last night | 00:30 |
| amenado | dem0nk1d_-> you have to understand level 2-5 is same level in ubuntu.. | 00:30 |
| WAKD | Bossmanbeta check for any wierd filenames and any '.' files too :-) | 00:30 |
| Pici | dem0nk1d_: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm remove stops the gdm from starting up, or if you can ssh in, you could just do sudo invoke-rc.d gdm stop to temporarily stop it. | 00:30 |
| Fryguy-- | Bossmanbeta: i'd take a look at the contents of your home directory using terminal or whatever and see if there is anything weird in there | 00:30 |
| Bossmanbeta | Fryguy--, what tyype of weird stuff should I be looking for? | 00:31 |
| dem0nk1d_ | ok so then how do i not get it to boot into X | 00:31 |
| Pici | dem0nk1d_: er, no invoke-rc.d gdm remove, update-rc.d gdm remove | 00:31 |
| dem0nk1d_ | runlevel 0 then | 00:31 |
| Fryguy-- | Bossmanbeta: should be somewhat obvious I guess | 00:31 |
| Fryguy-- | Bossmanbeta: files with null characters, super huge files, etc. | 00:31 |
| Apac | Anyone here familiar with setting up a pptp connection in Kubuntu? | 00:31 |
| === automat_ is now known as automat | ||
| Fryguy-- | Apac: ask questions, don't ask to ask | 00:32 |
| Bossmanbeta | Fryguy--, would it have to be something in HOME itself, not a subdirectory | 00:32 |
| Fryguy-- | probably home itself, i dunno | 00:32 |
| Fryguy-- | Bossmanbeta: use some common sense and look around for yourself | 00:32 |
| peleg | hmmm.. wink is not open source, it seems | 00:32 |
| Apac | Well, hows this one for you, I've been trying to get a ptpp connection going, I get an error for the DNS routing, yet the DNS is set properly. | 00:32 |
| WAKD | Apac what's the DNS error? | 00:33 |
| Fryguy-- | Apac: are you doing peerdns or something? | 00:33 |
| Apac | Cant resolve. | 00:33 |
| Bossmanbeta | Fryguy--, but if there were afile like that, it would have to be in the home dir itself, right? not a sub dir, so I can limit where I'm looking | 00:33 |
| Fryguy-- | Bossmanbeta: yah sure whatever | 00:33 |
| ani1 | Bossmanbeta: as it was explained look in the home dir first if you dont see anything unusual then look in subdirectories | 00:33 |
| dem0nk1d_ | PICI: invoke-rc.d: unknown initscript, /etc/init.d/gdm not found. | 00:34 |
| peleg | so in that case, I'll give it another shot: do you know about any nice slideshow-making software? | 00:34 |
| ColdFyre | when you plug in an sd/cf card from a digicam, what is the name of the program that pops up to import photos from the card? | 00:34 |
| Apac | pptpconfig | 00:34 |
| Fryguy-- | Apac: like i asked before, are you using peerdns or anything? | 00:34 |
| ani1 | ColdFyre: gthumb is the default for camera but its just a picture viewer | 00:35 |
| bastid_raZor | ColdFyre; if you don't mind KDE apps you could use something like digiKam.. for my picture transferring needs i use CLI.. to me much faster and easier | 00:35 |
| Apac | Fryguy, not really sure what you mean. | 00:35 |
| Fryguy-- | Apac: and do you have the right static route set up to whatever network you are connecting to | 00:35 |
| swaj | peleg: have you tried OpenOffice.org Presenatation? or will that not accomplish what you need? | 00:35 |
| Stroganoff | ColdFyre: there gtkam | 00:35 |
| Apac | It auto configures the resolvers | 00:35 |
| bastid_raZor | ColdFyre; digiKam 'will' automatically detect the card and ask you where to import. | 00:36 |
| swaj | peleg: I think the exact program is called "Impress" -- it's basically a powerpoint clone | 00:36 |
| Fryguy-- | Apac: and where are the resolvers located physically? | 00:36 |
| ColdFyre | i remember i had it in ubuntu in gnome, it was just to show thumbnails/import/delete pics from the cam | 00:36 |
| Bossmanbeta | Fryguy--, I guess i got it........... I think... I deleted some of the files that the dvd rip (failed rip) had created | 00:36 |
| Apac | On another network, in Dallas Texas | 00:36 |
| Fryguy-- | Apac: on your network segment or the network segment that you are connecting to | 00:36 |
| Stroganoff | ColdFyre: sudo apt-get install gtkam | 00:36 |
| Fryguy-- | Apac: ok, and do you have the proper static route set up? | 00:36 |
| oriez | how long does it take to shrink an hard-drive? | 00:36 |
| Apac | Using interface ppp0pptpconfig: monitoring interface ppp0 | 00:37 |
| Apac | Connect: ppp0 <--> /dev/pts/2 | 00:37 |
| Apac | CHAP authentication succeeded | 00:37 |
| Apac | MPPE 128-bit stateless compression enabled | 00:37 |
| Apac | Cannot determine ethernet address for proxy ARP | 00:37 |
| FloodBot2 | Apac: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 00:37 |
| Fryguy-- | oriez: depends on the hardware and the specific operation. i've had it take anywhere from 5 seconds to 3 days | 00:37 |
| Apac | Whoops, didnt mean to post all that | 00:37 |
| Fryguy-- | Apac: you need static route set up to route to the new network | 00:37 |
| peleg | swaj: impress? it looks much too complicated for my needs, and I don't know if I want to invest so much time creating full presentations; what I need is even a command-line software that will get a list of pictures + some parameters, place them one after another, place an ogg on the background, and create a nice mpg video file of 4-10 minutes... Windows had something similar to this, back in the black days. | 00:37 |
| daCh | hola | 00:37 |
| Apac | What do you mean? | 00:37 |
| daCh | hi | 00:37 |
| oriez | it's laptop with 180GB hard drive and i'm gonna be dividing it equally | 00:37 |
| Fryguy-- | Apac: i mean basic cross segment networking. | 00:38 |
| daCh | do you speek spanish? | 00:38 |
| Fryguy-- | Apac: a static route that maps the IPs of the network segment you are connecting to to your local segment | 00:38 |

| bastid_raZor | oriez; by shrink do you mean partitioning to different sizes? | 00:38 |
| Apac | Fryguy, you mean like I need to have my resolvers set properly? | 00:38 |
| andar4 | ok.. im trying to run hdparm from an ubuntu live cd but it needs root permission... is there a password for the live cd's root or some other way i can do this? | 00:38 |
| Fryguy-- | Apac: probably not | 00:39 |
| subsume | how can I tell how powerful my server is? | 00:39 |
| ani1 | whoa lagggggy | 00:39 |
| daCh | ok tanks. | 00:39 |
| oriez | yes from 180 to 90 GB | 00:39 |
| m-c | Fryguy--: how can I send you a private message? ... not a technical question | 00:39 |
| Fryguy-- | subsume: ? | 00:39 |
| subsume | The specs, etc. | 00:39 |
| Fryguy-- | m-c: don't message me | 00:39 |
| Stroganoff | peleg: have you tried "dvd-slideshow" | 00:39 |
| Stroganoff | it creates a VOB file | 00:39 |
| Slasher` | night everyone | 00:39 |
| Skiessi | night | 00:39 |
| Apac | Fryguy--, well, in short, it changes my resolvers to the resolvers they should be, I can see the change when I cat /etc/resolv.conf | 00:40 |
| Devourer | How do I get the vim-tutorial command? | 00:40 |
| Fryguy-- | Apac: ok, so now add a static route so that the IPs that those resolves give you route to meaningful locations | 00:40 |
| Fryguy-- | Devourer: join #vim for vim help | 00:40 |
| peleg | Stroganoff: I have installed it, but I am not sure what to do with it. is it only for dvd? I need something that I'll be able to put on the internet | 00:40 |
| oriez | Fryguy--: it's an 180GB partition and i'll make it 90GB | 00:40 |
| bastid_raZor | oriez; if it is the drive you are using then you'll have to partition it from a Live CD.. if not should take no more than 4 or 5 minutes.. possibly less according to your CPU/RAM | 00:40 |
| Fryguy-- | oriez: i heard you the first time, and i already answered your question, the answer is "it depends" | 00:41 |
| Apac | You mean like adding a route to the routing tables? | 00:41 |
| Fryguy-- | Apac: yes | 00:41 |
| Apac | It does that already. | 00:41 |
| oriez | yes i'm using live CD | 00:41 |
| janusDK | how do I upgrade Ubuntu 8.04 alpha6 -> beta1? | 00:41 |
| Stroganoff | peleg: you could convert the .vob to xvid.avi | 00:41 |
| Stroganoff | peleg: read the docs at http://dvd-slideshow.sourceforge.net/wiki/Main_Page | 00:41 |
| Flannel | janusDK: #ubuntu+1 for hardy support, but just regular updates. | 00:41 |
| peleg | Stroganoff: thanks! | 00:41 |
| bastid_raZor | janusDK; by doing the updates via apt-get or synaptic.. | 00:41 |
| Fryguy-- | Apac: if you have dns, a pptp connection, and a route, then your connection works unless there are some extra limits/needs of your connection that are more than usual, and that is even more outside of the scope of this channel than this conversation already is | 00:41 |
| Fryguy-- | janusDK: #ubuntu+1 | 00:42 |
| janusDK | ok - thanks | 00:42 |
| Apac | Thanks. | 00:42 |
| oriez | i'm using the drive and a Live CD | 00:42 |
| Fryguy-- | Apac: if you are routing to ltsp on windows or something you'll probably need to enable windows specific options. Covered in pretty much every pptp tutorial i've ever seen | 00:42 |
| Tuv0k | I forgot the cmd to start the preset server package managment program | 00:42 |
| Fryguy-- | Tuv0k: synaptic? | 00:43 |
| amenado | Apac-> paste in pastebin your route -n results; and ifconfig; and cat /etc/resolv.conf | 00:43 |
| Tuv0k | you know where I can select xubuntu-desktop LAMP | 00:43 |
| Tuv0k | etc | 00:43 |
| Tuv0k | not synaptic | 00:43 |
| Apac | Yeah, I've tried everything I can think of. | 00:43 |
| Tuv0k | this is cli | 00:43 |
| WAKD | BTW anyone know a good channel for networking specifcs talk? | 00:43 |
| Apac | And everything I've seen | 00:43 |
| Fryguy-- | WAKD: #networking | 00:43 |
| Tuv0k | I hate I keep forgetting it | 00:43 |
| bastid_raZor | Tuv0k; apt-get or aptitude? | 00:43 |
| Tuv0k | no | 00:43 |

| iGadget | I sent an email to webmaster@canonical.com, but is this the way to go? | 00:45 |
| BorisDmitri | Tuv0k, is to reconfigure some package? | 00:45 |
| oriez | so most of the times making the partition takes more time than installing ubuntu? | 00:45 |
| Tuv0k | no0tic, to reconfigure the install | 00:46 |
| Fryguy-- | oriez: usually not | 00:46 |
| Tuv0k | sorry | 00:46 |
| bastid_raZor | oriez; no | 00:46 |
| Tuv0k | to reconfig the install | 00:46 |

| iGadget | well... let's see if we get any response | 00:47 |
| bastid_raZor | Tuv0k; you're not giving very much info to help you. | 00:47 |
| oriez | so only in my case? cuz i'm doing it on the drive that i'm using via a Live CD? | 00:47 |
| Tuv0k | I have | 00:47 |
| newtubuntu | I need to know how to get the mount point (or path) to a FireWire drive so I change it's ownership in order to be able to change permissions on it | 00:47 |
| Tuv0k | I'm trying to install a preset configuration | 00:48 |

| Tuv0k | Fryguy--, doubt it after I show you | 00:48 |
| Fryguy-- | Tuv0k: ? | 00:48 |
| patrick_ | i need a good, easy on the eyes, easy to download theme for gutsy, got any suggestions? | 00:48 |
| BorisDmitri | newtoubuntu run mount from the command line | 00:48 |
| Fryguy-- | Tuv0k: what? | 00:48 |
| Tuv0k | if you run this cmd from cli it will do exactly as I have described | 00:48 |
| Fryguy-- | Tuv0k: you obviously want to do something more than see a blue screen with options, what | 00:48 |
| Tuv0k | I'm not making this up | 00:48 |
| newtubuntu | BorisDmitri, how do I get the path to it ? | 00:49 |
| Tuv0k | read above | 00:49 |
| bazhang | gnome-look.org patrick_ | 00:49 |
| Fryguy-- | Tuv0k: i missed it, please repeat | 00:49 |
| Tuv0k | preset install via cmd line | 00:49 |
| bastid_raZor | kazol_; i don't run k3b as root.. never have. gnome has brasero now.. looks/works very nice | 00:49 |
| WAKD | newtubuntu you can also cat /etc/mtab to see what is mounted at the moment | 00:49 |
| Tuv0k | I have 4 times now | 00:49 |
| WAKD | Tuv0k so it reconfigures a running system on the fly or on new install? | 00:49 |
| Fryguy-- | Tuv0k: you don't care about the blue screen, you obviously want to bring up uthe blue screen to select an option on it, what option do you want to select | 00:49 |
| patrick_ | bazhang in that site, on the side bar which link do i want? compiz or metacity or what idk | 00:49 |
| oriez | yes it's 15 minutes now i think... it's my second time that i'm installing ubuntu so i was just wondering if it's normally can take so long | 00:50 |
| === Bidou` is now known as Bidou | ||
| Fryguy-- | oriez: gparted is overly protective of your data, so it can take a while if you are shifting a partition over | 00:50 |
| bazhang | patrick_: well that depends on you? do you want static themes? or something to use with compiz that is more 3D-ish; in that case you might check out screenlets and the widgets they have | 00:50 |
| BorisDmitri | Tuv0k: you want to install xubunto desktop and lamp? i you could install them using sudo aptitude xubuntu-desktop | 00:51 |

| patrick_ | bazhang i really just want something to change the window bars and panels and stuff | 00:51 |
| oriez | i think it's finishing | 00:51 |
| BorisDmitri | Tuv0k: aptitude? | 00:51 |
| Fryguy-- | patrick_: art.gnome.org or gnome-look.com then for themes | 00:51 |
| Tuv0k | BorisDmitri, tasksel | 00:52 |
| Tuv0k | looks blue huh? | 00:52 |
| Tuv0k | ;) | 00:52 |
| bazhang | patrick_: metacity would be the non compiz ones--so if you avoid the eye candy (like I do) then that would be the way to go; or the reverse | 00:52 |
| BorisDmitri | yes | 00:52 |
| BorisDmitri | Tuv0k: ok... glad to help you... | 00:52 |
| Moduliz0r | how would I export the audio track of a video? | 00:52 |

| newtubuntu | how do you refer to 'long names' with spaces in them in console mode ? | 00:54 |
| Moduliz0r | Rprp: maybe you pressed never save my password there once before | 00:54 |
| WAKD | Rprp - bad idea mate - if you computer get's nicked they get your accounts. | 00:54 |
| Starnestommy | newtubuntu: put a \ before the space | 00:54 |
| bastid_raZor | Fryguy--; compiz-fusion with emerald and a OSX theme with OSX mod (for icons ) avant dock.. all looks well | 00:54 |
| Moduliz0r | newtubuntu: a space is a "\ " | 00:54 |
| Fryguy-- | Rprp: banking institutions don't give you the opportunity to save your info for security reasons usually | 00:54 |
| Rprp | Moduliz0r: there was never a popup like that | 00:54 |
| newtubuntu | for example: My Pictures Folder ... ? | 00:54 |
| anteaya | i have been instructed in #alsa to install the beep package. Is the command sudo apt-get install beep ? | 00:54 |

| mcopple | newtubuntu: There are two ways to do it -- a) your\ long\ name\ here | 00:54 |
| Moduliz0r | newtubuntu: Then it would be My\ Pictures | 00:54 |

| Fryguy-- | bastid_raZor: full keyboard control of everything, auto-tiling, uses too large window borders and wastes screen space, doesn't support any sort of window profiling, and has no mechanisms for dealing with overlapped windows easily | 00:57 |
| bazhang | patrick_ but Vista? oh noe! | 00:57 |

| tnkie | hi what kernel version is ubuntu 7.10, and/or does it contain the iwlwifi drivers? | 01:03 |
| TaRDy | he said he will almost never use a GUI unless he must | 01:03 |
| WAKD | TaRDy - I learnt my *nix on Solaris from guys like that :-) | 01:03 |
| Fryguy-- | tnkie: 2.6.22-14 | 01:03 |
| tnkie | cheers mate | 01:03 |
| WAKD | tnkie - uname -a will tell you the kernel you're on mate | 01:03 |
| Fryguy-- | pretty much only gui i use is web browser | 01:03 |
| hellues | hey | 01:04 |
| TaRDy | WAKD, I'm learning unix on Solaris now for work, as well as starting to learn with ubuntu at home | 01:04 |
| ani1 | hellues: the more specific you are about your alsa problem the better and quicker somebody will help saying you have a problem with alsa isnt enough information | 01:04 |
| hellues | i installed alsa-utils and alsa-base | 01:05 |
| bazhang | hellues: there is also a channel for that #alsa | 01:05 |
| greasy_leftwing | hellues: are you running ubuntu as packaged with the gnome gui? | 01:05 |

| WAKD | Fryguy-- yeah I know but - I dunno - there's just something about solaris that speak to the soul you know? I dunno what or why! | 01:06 |
| Fryguy-- | WAKD: i feel differently | 01:06 |
| TuTUXG_ | bastid_raZor, altho i was kidding, but thank you! | 01:06 |
| TuTUXG_ | ;P | 01:06 |

| TaRDy | WAKD, I am not too familiar with them although I heard somebody mention ZFS at work as I intern at SMI | 01:07 |
| Fryguy-- | ask a stupid question, get a stupid answer | 01:07 |
| greasy_leftwing | hellues: then there possible answers - 1.. you arent typing the right name for the command that opens the config dialog, 2.. it hasnt installed correctly, 3.. it isnt in the command interpreter path and you need to locate the directory where it is located and type the command for the prog preceded by './' | 01:07 |

| Moduliz0r | anyone know how to use transcode to extract the audio stream from a video? | 01:07 |
| bazhang | Fryguy--: that was uncalled for | 01:07 |
| WAKD | Fryguy-- yeah lots of folks do - don't get me wrong I love Debian and Ubuntu but there's something really special for me with Solaris. maybe because I learnt my *nix on them :-) | 01:07 |
| ani1 | !ot | WAKD | 01:07 |

| === proxie is now known as bryanray | ||

| greasy_leftwing | I need to get developing | 01:11 |
| TuTUXG_ | ya, windows "slow me up" too | 01:11 |
| WAKD | greasy_leftwing - oh right - your coding for windows? | 01:11 |
| Fryguy-- | lol at switching from *nix to windows for development purposes | 01:11 |
| subsume | har har guys. | 01:12 |
| subsume | greasy_leftwing: whatcha developing? | 01:12 |
| Fryguy-- | oh SURE, ask him :/ | 01:12 |
| greasy_leftwing | why you laughing? development is about how fast you can create something sustainable, treliable and useable | 01:12 |
| TuTUXG_ | haha | 01:12 |
| TuTUXG_ | oops | 01:12 |
| subsume | greasy_leftwing: I don't know that windows has the clear advantage. | 01:12 |
| subsume | greasy_leftwing: _what_ are you developing? =) | 01:12 |
| Fryguy-- | greasy_leftwing: and believing that windows is faster at that than linux is a pipe dream in most circumstances | 01:12 |
| bastid_raZor | and we see how quick vista was put together and tossed out to the computing world | 01:12 |
| ani1 | !ot >< | 01:12 |
| WAKD | greasy_leftwing - actually that's called productization. developing is about creating something beautiful and getting is as 'right' as possible without time or money pressures. ;-) | 01:13 |

| subsume | greasy_leftwing: you're being totally vague. | 01:18 |
| TheViLliN | what can you do if you forgot your root password? | 01:18 |
| Pelo | pros978, just open synaptic and do a search for voice , or voice recognition , a list of packages will turn up, I know there is one in there | 01:18 |
| Fryguy-- | TheViLliN: use sudo to reset it | 01:18 |
| bastid_raZor | Fryguy--; and to think you could be doing so much more if you had windows | 01:18 |
| Fryguy-- | TheViLliN: or log into a recovery console and reset it that way | 01:18 |
| subsume | TheViLliN: sudo if you got it. =) | 01:18 |
| greasy_leftwing | kk, fine, goin off-topic | 01:19 |

| TheViLliN | odd, i try switching to another terminal and logging in but it tells me its wrong. | 01:20 |
| Fryguy-- | komputagr: using compiz-fusion, not beryl, beryl is long deprecated | 01:20 |
| Fryguy-- | Tuv0k: haven't used it, why | 01:20 |
| bastid_raZor | komputagr; that would be a negative. | 01:20 |

I copied my exact config file (except for the shares) and it now doesn't work. I can connect to the apache2 server on the same machine. Why could it not be working? | 01:26 |

| pros978 | Mint Linux | 01:26 |

| komputagr | patrick_ do i have to install ubuntu, i would like to run it from the cd | 01:27 |
| komputagr | is it possible? | 01:27 |
| Fryguy-- | komputagr: that's the point of a livecd... | 01:28 |
| amenado | TaRDy-> then you must assign an ip address to your ps3..to be in same subnet as your ubuntus eth1 | 01:28 |

| Fryguy-- | ani1: wouldn't that speak more towards running a livecd? | 01:29 |
| TheViLliN | Flannel: ya , i know. I was trying to use a program that would not run for some reason even though i prefixed sudo. just trying stuff :) | 01:29 |
| Fryguy-- | komputagr: then there is probably not proper driver support for your hardware on the cd | 01:29 |
| bastid_raZor | komputagr; System>Appearances>Appearances then goto the Visual tab.. see if you can enable that. | 01:29 |

| shawnharn | ok | 01:35 |

| ani1 | errrr !hardy > Timmy | 01:35 |
| ani1 | read the topic | 01:35 |
| rectec794613 | i did, it didn't help | 01:36 |
| Fryguy-- | rectec794613: what happened | 01:36 |
| hischild | rectec794613, he said: hit alt+f2 and type the command there. | 01:36 |
| ani1 | Fryguy--: im lagging horribly :\ | 01:36 |
| rectec794613 | it said no such file exists or something | 01:36 |
| jrib | rectec794613: you need to be precise, don't paraphrase errors | 01:36 |
| rectec794613 | Could not open location 'file:///~$ SKIP_CHECKS=yes compiz' | 01:37 |
| Pelo | shawnharn, you'll need to ask in #compiz to figure out what might be wrong , i'm not all that familiar with the ati cards and compiz, they will know better | 01:37 |
| rectec794613 | The location or file could not be found. | 01:37 |
| shawnharn | okay | 01:37 |
| shawnharn | thanks | 01:37 |
| rectec794613 | thats what it says | 01:37 |
| jrib | rectec794613: did you include the "~$" for some reason? | 01:37 |
| ani1 | heh | 01:38 |
| rectec794613 | uhhh | 01:38 |
| crdlb | you can't put an environment variable in the run dialog | 01:38 |
| rectec794613 | :? | 01:38 |
| Fryguy-- | rectec794613: just run compiz, don't append skip_checks to it | 01:38 |
| Fryguy-- | err, prepend | 01:38 |
| crdlb | presumably, he has a blacklisted card | 01:38 |
| elkbuntu | which will be blacklisted for a reason | 01:39 |
| Fryguy-- | rectec794613: or use nohup in a terminal to run what you want | 01:39 |
| subsume | I'm trying to setup a fat client and its saying /proc is busy when I try to unmount it. What can I do to umount this thing!! | 01:39 |
| * Fryguy-- has no idea what everyone's obsession with compiz is anyway | 01:39 | |
| komputagr | how to install install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' | 01:39 |
| hischild | Fryguy--, it looks great ... | 01:39 |
| komputagr | ? | 01:39 |
| Starnestommy | subsume: leave it mounted. It's used for process management | 01:39 |
| rectec794613 | no, thats not it, my effects are already enabled, it's just that i used terminal to do that and i cant close the terminal or my effects will be lost | 01:39 |
| Fryguy-- | komputagr: apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager | 01:39 |
| amenado | subsume-> i dont believe you can unmount it while it is in use | 01:39 |
| subsume | Starnestommy: its necessary. I'm chrooted | 01:39 |
| jrib | crdlb, Fryguy--: sh -c "FOO=bar COMMAND" might work in the run dialog? | 01:39 |
| Fryguy-- | hischild: i use my computer to get work done, not to look at fancy window effects | 01:39 |
| crdlb | elkbuntu: indeed, but "not stable enough for default in ubuntu" isn't always the same as "not stable enough rectec794613" :) | 01:40 |
| Fryguy-- | jrib: probably, nohup in a terminal will work too | 01:40 |
| subsume | amenado: don't I owe you one? | 01:40 |
| jrib | Fryguy--: true | 01:40 |
| subsume | amenado: =) | 01:40 |
| Rugg | rectec794613: try adding & at end of command. ie: firefox & | 01:40 |
| yowshi | ok thats crap apparently when i installed virtualbox i installed a server kernel | 01:40 |
| ere4si | rectec794613: shut the terminal by typing exit | 01:40 |
| rectec794613 | ... | 01:40 |
| amenado | subsume-> owe me? only a few thousands...hehe | 01:40 |
| rectec794613 | :S | 01:40 |
| hischild | Fryguy--, i understand that. But some of us also use it for relaxing and it's nice to have some nice window effects. | 01:40 |
| jrib | Rugg: that will still get closed when he closes the terminal though | 01:40 |
| jrib | rectec794613: Fryguy--'s nohup suggestion should work | 01:40 |
| crdlb | rectec794613: if you want to permanently override the blacklist, please join #compiz-fusion | 01:40 |

Now instead of insisting on my need for a plugin, it just doesn't play the stream. It shows me a blank frame. Help? | 01:41 |

| lewis2 | can someone help me get sound working on my new ubuntu install? Something about the wrong Gstreamer plugins. | 01:42 |
| Felonious | Is there an easy way to reinstall ubuntu over my old install | 01:43 |
| hischild | Fryguy--, I use metacity on my laptop due to it's smaller strain on resources and longer battery time. But it's fun if you're showing off at friends that you can write with fire, windows wobbly or fishes swimming inside of you cube. | 01:43 |
| datakid | hi, i've just put a d-link dwl 520 wireless network adapter in my box running gutsy. the device appears when i lspci but doesn't appear in network tools. Network manager has found my wireless network, but it's asking for a leap wireless security login and password - my network has no security on it at all (at teh moment) | 01:43 |
| seismicmike | lewis2: do you have any sound at all? Like in flash movies online? Or is it only when you try to play mp3s? | 01:43 |
| Felonious | I want to start fresh... I installed so much crap with synaptic and now I dont know what came with the distro or not | 01:43 |
| WAKD | komputagr - apt-get install xserver-xgl ..... | 01:43 |
| datakid | how can I get it to connect without the leap pass? | 01:43 |
| komputagr | ok and how can i start compiz ? | 01:43 |
| Fryguy-- | hischild: I'm not sure why you'd want to show off 3d effects to friends, or what kind of friends would be impressed by that, but ok. | 01:43 |
| rhineheart_m | how to quit iperf\ | 01:43 |
| WAKD | System -> Appearance | 01:43 |
| Fryguy-- | komputagr: run "compiz" | 01:43 |
| komputagr | i did and it didnt start | 01:44 |
| komputagr | in appearance last 2 ones are inactive | 01:44 |
| Fryguy-- | komputagr: then you need to make sure you have 3d stuff enabled | 01:44 |
| bastid_raZor | komputagr; system>preferences>appearances then the visual tab. enable it | 01:44 |
| hischild | Fryguy--, do you want an answer on that or was it more of a statement? (no hard feelings, i do understand your point of view) | 01:44 |
| lewis2 | seismi, no sound what so ever. | 01:44 |
| og_ | Fryguy--: compiz serves two purposes, one it impresses those who dont 'use' computers | 01:44 |
| Felonious | Can I just pop the install disc in and format and install again or will grub cry when the original install has been changed? | 01:44 |
| Fryguy-- | hischild: i didn't see a question mark | 01:44 |
| og_ | Fryguy--: t2o, its acutally useful | 01:44 |
| komputagr | when i try to enable them i get a box "desktop effects could not be enabled" | 01:44 |
| seismicmike | hmm... I had a similar problem and had to fiddle around with all my settings. | 01:44 |
| hischild | Fryguy--, you can interpret "What kind of friends would be impressed" as a question | 01:44 |
| komputagr | bastid_raZor it doesnt work | 01:44 |
| Felonious | hmmmm | 01:45 |
| bastid_raZor | Felonious; do you have /home on a seperate partition or are you going to let the liveCD automatically partition your drive? | 01:45 |
| Fryguy-- | hischild: i typed a complete sentence, with no question mark, can't really interpret it like that, but ok | 01:45 |
| Fryguy-- | og_: i guess :/ | 01:45 |
| rectec794613 | it didn't work.. and i had to reboot | 01:45 |
| yowshi | how do i add myself to vboxusers group? | 01:45 |
| og_ | Fryguy--: it does have useful features | 01:45 |
| Felonious | I made my own bastid_raZor | 01:45 |
| lewis2 | seismicmike, no sound at all. | 01:45 |
| Felonious | home is its own partition | 01:45 |
| bastid_raZor | komputagr; #compiz-fusion would be a better channel to ask .. they will have much more experience in this.. | 01:45 |
| Fryguy-- | yowshi: edit /etc/group or user the users and groups administration tool in system | administration | 01:45 |
| og_ | Fryguy--: the windowgrouping, the expo for starters | 01:46 |
| Felonious | I have system, home and, a swap partitions | 01:46 |
| Fryguy-- | og_: and those useful features pale in comparison to other window managers, and it lacks some major features | 01:46 |
| subsume | grr..why in god's name do I get Gnome errors from a fresh 7.10 CD | 01:46 |
| seismicmike | lewis2: My first suggestion is to double click on the volume control manager. This should get you a full sound mixer. Make sure everything is up. Also click Edit > Preferences and click on all the check boxes | 01:46 |
| og_ | Fryguy--: Which has better? | 01:46 |
| Felonious | Im just scared of grub really... i dont want to bork my mbr | 01:46 |
| bastid_raZor | Felonious; the new install will want to use your /home you have now.. if you want a true fresh install reformat the partitions while in the install partition stage. | 01:46 |
| Felonious | ok... | 01:46 |
| seismicmike | make sure all the sliders are up, and nothing is muted. | 01:46 |
| Fryguy-- | og_: xmonad, pekwm, sawfish, dwm, ratpoison, ion3 off the top of my head | 01:46 |
| Felonious | but what about grub that I have installed now | 01:46 |
| seismicmike | Are you on a laptop or a desktop? | 01:46 |
| danand | yowshi - use the adduser command - something like adduser USER GROUP - check man page though | 01:47 |
| og_ | Fryguy--: *box style ones come close | 01:47 |
| subsume | desktop | 01:47 |
| rectec794613 | oh well | 01:47 |
| Fryguy-- | og_: I find *box wms to be very lacking as well | 01:47 |
| bastid_raZor | Felonious; do you dual boot? | 01:47 |
| Felonious | yes sir | 01:47 |
| datakid | actually the wireless card has just turned up in network tools, but it's 'unrecognised' and I can | 01:47 |
| datakid | t configure it | 01:47 |
| og_ | Fryguy--: I actually like *box, (after heavy configuration) | 01:47 |
| lewis2 | audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Could not open resource for writing. | 01:47 |
| Fryguy-- | og_: I use xmonad | 01:47 |
| og_ | Fryguy--: not tried xmonad | 01:48 |
| bastid_raZor | Felonious; if the only affect partitons are the ubuntu ones then you should have no issues. grub will detect windows and add it to the menu.lst | 01:48 |
| danand | yowshi - sudo adduser yowshi vboxusers should do the trick | 01:48 |
| og_ | Fryguy--: I'll look it up in a sec | 01:48 |
| seismicmike | lewis2: is that the error you got? | 01:48 |
| Felonious | I understand that... but will it autodetect my current instal of ubuntu has been removed? | 01:48 |
| og_ | Fryguy--: The other advantage of compiz is the composite extension take thework load off the process and putsit onto the graphics card | 01:48 |
| lewis2 | yes | 01:48 |
| seismicmike | lewis2: in a terminal do: lspci | 01:48 |
| og_ | Fryguy--: Improoving performace, (that is if you have a decent card) | 01:49 |
| bastid_raZor | Felonious; if you format your ubuntu partitions.. there is no former install of ubuntu | 01:49 |
| Fryguy-- | og_: which isn't an issue for me, since all of my windows except for firefox and a media player are terminals | 01:49 |
| og_ | Fryguy--: fair comment | 01:49 |
| lewis2 | now what seismicmike? | 01:49 |
| dryder | Hi - newbie to irc - are questions about XSANE allowed in here? | 01:49 |
| seismicmike | does one of them list a sound card? | 01:49 |
| og_ | Fryguy--: sorry that wm again? | 01:49 |
| yowshi | already a member added from one of the other methods and it still says i am not a member | 01:49 |
| Fryguy-- | og_: xmonad | 01:49 |
| Felonious | I know... but what happens with grub is what I am saying... I do not want to damage my mbr | 01:49 |
| og_ | Fryguy--: checking it out | 01:49 |
| yowshi | and i cant use virtualbox until i fix this problem | 01:49 |
| WAKD | dryder ask away mate | 01:49 |
| Fryguy-- | yowshi: after you add yourself, you need to log out and log back in | 01:50 |
| bastid_raZor | Felonious; your grub will be fine.. | 01:50 |
| Felonious | ok | 01:50 |
| Felonious | because if I bork my mbr I have no way to get back online to resolve my problem | 01:50 |
| danand | yowshi - log out and then back in again | 01:50 |
| datakid | how can I make it recognise teh card? ATM it comes up as 'unknown interface' | 01:50 |
| yowshi | ok brb | 01:50 |
| amenado | Felonious-> you can make a backup copy of your mbr | 01:50 |
| amenado | Felonious use dd | 01:51 |
| Felonious | mbr scares me | 01:51 |
| lewis2 | seismi cmike, done. now what? | 01:51 |
| WAKD | datakid - you mean network card? | 01:51 |
| datakid | yeah | 01:51 |
| lewis2 | seismicmike, done. now what? | 01:51 |
| seismicmike | lewis2: is your sound card listed in lspci? | 01:51 |
| bastid_raZor | Felonious; look up some howto's before you do the reinstall.. | 01:51 |
| datakid | WAKD yes. | 01:52 |
| yowshi | all this rebooting and i am trying to convert all my mp3's into ogg format using sound converter this is only slowing that down :( | 01:52 |
| bastid_raZor | Felonious; print them out.. grub isn't all that hard to work with | 01:52 |
| lewis2 | 00:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia | 01:52 |
| Felonious | well if you say I can just reinstall the same way I installed them the first time I should be ok | 01:52 |
| WAKD | datakid - it's a PCI card right? | 01:52 |
| danand | yowshi - no need to reboot | 01:52 |
| datakid | yes | 01:52 |
| lewis2 | seismicmike, 00:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia | 01:52 |
| WAKD | so what does lspci -vv show? | 01:52 |
| WAKD | !paste | datakid | 01:52 |
| ubotu | datakid: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 01:52 |
| dryder | I'm using xsane to scan - can copy, save, email OK. But the efax settings don't send the fax only 'queue' it. If I use -d /dev/ttys0 (instead of the default FAX SEND) it sends it without waiting for a dialtone or dialling the number - ergo the fax doesn't get sent. Any ideas please (I want to avoid saving as documents) | 01:53 |
| yowshi | log out retsrat rbeoot all thbe same to sound converter | 01:53 |
| bastid_raZor | Felonious; if you format your ubuntu partitions it is as if you've never had ubuntu at all. | 01:53 |
| stephen | hello | 01:53 |
| Fryguy-- | bastid_raZor: except for mbr | 01:53 |
| yowshi | woot i can finally try and install windowsxpblack to this thing | 01:53 |
| datakid | WAKD it appears in lspci as teh d-link dwl 520 wireless card, which it is | 01:53 |
| seismicmike | lewsi2: OK. I think you need to install a driver for that. | 01:53 |
| danand | yowshi - think theres a way to background them processes so they still run when you log out | 01:53 |
| seismicmike | here's a link, but it's for dapper so it might be out of date: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Dapper_Installation_Guide | 01:54 |

| blbrown | is it safe to say that you still shouldn't use apt for java applications. I tell people this all the time, am I the only one? | 02:05 |

| Fryguy-- | lancerocke: what are you trying to do exactly | 02:07 |
| Malik_ | datakid: how far hav u gotten | 02:07 |
| datakid | Malik_ you will at least need to let people know what version of ubuntu, what card/laptop you are using etc | 02:07 |

| Fryguy-- | lancerocke: system | preferences | appearance will get you where you wan to go i think | 02:08 |
| lancerocke | Fryguy: I just wanna edit GTKRC themes with a GUI | 02:08 |
| datakid | Malik_ ive got my box recognising teh card, but not installd i think | 02:08 |
| Malik_ | datakid: thats simple | 02:08 |
| amenado | CRINGO-> yeah it looks okay, can you get into single user mode and do an fsck of your /dev/sda3 and see if it will fix anything? | 02:08 |
| lancerocke | Fryguy: I want to make my own GTKRC theme | 02:08 |
| seismicmike | OK. Since I haven't heard from lewis2, I'm going to assume that I helped him sufficiently. And since I solved my own problem (FIREFOX ADDON: Media Player Connectivity) I'll catch you guys later. This place rocks! | 02:08 |
| Fryguy-- | lancerocke: and if it's really gtkrc you want to edit, just edit it, it's a file in your home directory | 02:08 |
| CRINGO | amenado, what does it mean really to "get into single user mode"? | 02:08 |
| WAKD | Fryguy-- I take it I can just get the FreeBSD boot CD and install from network from there? | 02:09 |
| nich0s | Anyone know of a wiki for the new nvidia-glx-new? | 02:09 |
| lancerocke | Fryguy: you know how Dreamweaver enables you to edit in preview mode? | 02:09 |
| Fryguy-- | WAKD: yep. i got the first disc so I could get a running system without internet, but yes | 02:09 |
| Fryguy-- | lancerocke: no, i don't use gui tools for html editing | 02:09 |
| lancerocke | Fryguy: Thats what I want to do with GTKRC | 02:09 |
| CRINGO | amenado, I'll look it up and come back when I figure it out | 02:09 |
| amenado | CRINGO-> no network access, only root is able to get on.. | 02:09 |
| lancerocke | Anyone know of any GTKRC Editor apps? Is there any such thing? | 02:09 |

| piff | ed_ed: Well, your other distribution might also auto-detect it. If not, if your network card is pretty common, there should be drivers available for it. | 02:29 |

| pike_ | anteaya: the pcspkr module is supposed to take care of that is it loaded? lsmod to see | 02:32 |

| newtubuntu | guitrokr: my disk WAS full, so it warned me that it could not place the contents of my folder to the Trash. It asked if I wanted to delete anyway. So it's not in .Trashes | 02:35 |
| anteaya | pike_, : i want to write a little notification script with it, and i have looked in the sound settings and tinkered with what i could find to no avail thus far | 02:35 |
| efirewic2 | poseidon: a good partition editor | 02:35 |
| poseidon | O, if I use the partitioner that is on the live cd to shrink my windows partition, will that affect it? | 02:35 |
| ed_ed | piff: Sorry, it is intel | 02:36 |
| piff | no problem | 02:36 |
| anteaya | pike_, : the terminal bell is enabled in terminal preferences | 02:36 |
| poseidon | It gives me the choice of using x amount of a partiton. Does it auto shrink it before it uses it? | 02:36 |
| dryder | thanks ppl - I will try another day. :) | 02:36 |

| anteaya | pike_, : no sound | 02:39 |
| mbt | anteaya: Did you enable the system beep in System->preferences->sound? | 02:39 |
| efirewic2 | poseidon: what is your sys specs? | 02:39 |

| poseidon | efirewic2, so should I try the installation again? | 02:43 |
| ghostnob | someone help! | 02:43 |
| efirewic2 | poseidon: well, what I would do is download the gparted iso file burn it, then boot off it. Create your partitions, after your done make your ntfs hidden and unmark it for boot. boot your live cd and you should be able to install ubuntu. | 02:43 |
| ed_ed | piff: Sorry again, ok what type of work would be involved? Like writting your own drivers and stuff? | 02:43 |

| HardyOne | MasterScript, what port ? | 02:52 |
| FreewareFan | yaro: How you doing tonight? | 02:52 |
| piff | monkey: Booting and running from the liveCD will be MUCH slower than a hard drive install | 02:52 |
| xtknight | that was easy :) | 02:52 |
| yaro | FreewareFan: I am great, thanks for asking. Havew you a problem? | 02:52 |
| BlackChaos | is usbhostfs available for linux | 02:52 |
| efirewic2 | np, just had to do it yesterday... | 02:52 |
| MasterScript | HardyOne: what do u means? | 02:52 |
| magmack | xtknight: I have an ext3 driver for windows and I just verified that the partition does in fact have /sbin/init | 02:52 |
| monkey_guru | piff: how fast do you boot? | 02:52 |
| piff | monkey: If you installed Ubuntu on your HD, it will be very quick. | 02:53 |
| HardyOne | MasterScript, port 6667 6668 6669? | 02:53 |
| Malik_ | WAKD: r u doing it?? | 02:53 |
| FreewareFan | yaro: No, this is my first time on IRC, just getting the feel of things. | 02:53 |
| MasterScript | HardyOne: yes | 02:53 |
| xtknight | magmack, yeah that is probably the case. (btw how did you read a raid drive with ext3 ifs?) | 02:53 |
| piff | monkey: Haven't timed it in a long time, but it's quicker than my Windows boot (dual boot system). | 02:53 |
| monkey_guru | piff: thanks | 02:53 |
| WAKD | Malik - '/join #Malik_' | 02:53 |
| xtknight | magmack, i guess your raid is a true hardware implementation then? i'm surprised it lets you do that | 02:53 |
| piff | monkey: Sure. | 02:53 |
| magmack | xtknight: the drive with all operating system files is not a raid partition | 02:53 |
| FreewareFan | yaro: Thanks for asking, though! | 02:54 |
| xtknight | magmack, oh? | 02:54 |
| GuyFromHell | Is it possible to install a deb built for hardy (specifically beta nvidia drivers) on gutsy? | 02:54 |
| xtknight | magmack, /boot and / are not RAID? | 02:54 |
| HardyOne | MasterScript, have you opened port for irc in your router? | 02:54 |
| Malik_ | WAKD: ur not replying.. | 02:54 |
| magmack | xtknight correct | 02:54 |
| xtknight | magmack, which partitions are raid? | 02:54 |
| tux97 | hi | 02:54 |
| MasterScript | HardyOne: #MS | 02:54 |
| magmack | just my ntfs archive drive (video, music, games, etc) | 02:54 |
| xtknight | magmack, ah ok. this is just a mount point then? like /videos or something? | 02:55 |
| Malik_ | can some1 plz help me out??? | 02:55 |
| xtknight | magmack, it's not your home folder is it? | 02:55 |
| FreewareFan | tux97: hi | 02:55 |
| magmack | no, it's not | 02:55 |
| Fryguy-- | Malik_: are you paying attention at all? | 02:55 |
| tux97 | hi freewarefan do i know u lol | 02:55 |
| Malik_ | wat...? | 02:55 |
| Fryguy-- | Malik_: he's been telling you what to do for a while now | 02:56 |
| FreewareFan | tux97: Nope, this is my first time on IRC. But you do now.. hehe | 02:56 |
| Kira | what does the '>>' redirection in bash mean again? | 02:56 |
| Malik_ | Frguy: who is? | 02:56 |
| xtknight | magmack, have you tried rebooting ubuntu without installing dmraid? | 02:56 |
| Fryguy-- | Malik_: wakd | 02:56 |
| xtknight | magmack, doesit even reboot once? | 02:56 |
| efirewic2 | malik: what are you trying to do? | 02:56 |
| Malik_ | WAKD: he is not replying | 02:56 |
| Malik_ | WAKD: iam on his channel he otold me to join | 02:56 |
| Fryguy-- | Kira: append to file | 02:56 |
| smallfry | how do i get the bass on my subs to work in ubuntu? | 02:56 |
| magmack | xtknight: no, after installing dmraid, after even one reboot, system becomes unbootable | 02:56 |
| tux97 | ok freewarefan lol | 02:56 |
| monkey_guru | i have a sony with intel centrino core duo. which chipset should i download for ubuntu? | 02:57 |
| Malik_ | frguy: i joined his channel and he isn't talking | 02:57 |
| Kira | thanks Fryguy-- | 02:57 |
| Fryguy-- | Malik_: that's unfortunate | 02:57 |
| Malik_ | Frguy--: can u help me out? | 02:57 |
| FreewareFan | tux97: Just checking out this whole IRC thing.. Seems like conversations go by real fast! | 02:57 |
| xtknight | magmack, (rather, are you sure it is due to dmraid? have you tried rebooting without installing dmraid? what i am thinking is that you install ubuntu and on the first boot install dmraid, then reboot and it doesn't work. but need to make sure it's dmraid that's the problem) | 02:57 |
| tux97 | yep freewarrefan lol | 02:57 |
| Fryguy-- | Malik_: stop spamming in here asking for help every 15 seconds. if nobody can answer your question, then nobody can answer your question. asking it again isn't going to help | 02:57 |
| efirewic2 | malik: what are you trying to do? | 02:57 |
| magmack | xtknight yes. it reboots fine without dmraid installed | 02:57 |
| Fryguy-- | Malik_: and yes i could probably help, but I refuse to help complete dumbasses | 02:57 |
| smallfry | how do i get the bass on my subs to work in ubuntu? | 02:58 |
| Malik_ | Fryguy--: come on its my firts day in ubuntu and i already got liek 2 problems solved | 02:58 |
| xtknight | magmack, ok how did you create the drive array to begin with? | 02:58 |
| [agatha] | hi here guys :) i have lost my buttons to reboot and turn off the computer... any ideas? | 02:58 |
| HardyOne | !patience | smallfry | 02:58 |
| ubotu | smallfry: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 02:58 |
| Malik_ | Fryguy--: and i was a hardcore vista user jus 1 day ago giv me a break | 02:58 |
| Fryguy-- | smallfry: too vague, what subwoofer, what isn't playing with it, how is it connected, etc | 02:58 |
| snypzz | IRC has been around a long time !!! | 02:58 |
| Fryguy-- | Malik_: that's not an excuse for lacking common sense and spamming the channel | 02:58 |
| tux97 | freewarefan what version do u have? | 02:59 |
| Malik_ | Fryguy--: iam sorry | 02:59 |
| FreewareFan | tux97: Gutsy 7.10. Why? | 02:59 |
| smallfry | fryguy: what do you mean? | 02:59 |
| Fryguy-- | [agatha]: did you disable the powernow daemon by any chance? | 02:59 |
| tux97 | just wondering freewarefan | 02:59 |
| [agatha] | not intentionally Fryguy-- ... i don't even know what is it | 02:59 |
| FreewareFan | tux97 And you? | 02:59 |
| tux97 | freewarefan same | 02:59 |
| Fryguy-- | smallfry: well, is your sub connected directly to a soundcard, or is it connected to other speakers? is it on a receiver? what sound card is it? what makes you think it's not working? | 03:00 |
| magmack | xtknight: I have an array manager in the bios. I created a RAID-0 array and made the whole thing (1TB decimal: 2x500GB drives) one NTFS partition. It mounts, reads and writes fine under linux, but as soon as I reboot...death | 03:00 |
| WAKD | Malik_ I create a chan with your user name and am in there waiting mate... | 03:00 |
| [agatha] | any way to get it? i have all options to log out and change users and so on, but not to turn off the computer, which is weird (in caps) | 03:00 |
| FreewareFan | tux97: Just got it installed about two weeks ago, and I've been loving it since! | 03:00 |
| Malik_ | WAKD: dude ur not answering | 03:00 |
| xtknight | magmack, i see. are you using any particular howto for setting up dmraid. i'm trying to get a picture of how it works and what goes on | 03:00 |
| Malik_ | WAKD: i went on the channel | 03:00 |
| Fryguy-- | xtknight: dmraid isn't applicable to him at all | 03:00 |
| tux97 | cool freewarefan | 03:00 |
| Fryguy-- | xtknight: he's using real hardware raid | 03:00 |
| yoand1 | hi, is any plan on ubuntu/oracle to support oracle/ubuntu? | 03:00 |
| FreewareFan | Tux97: Never used linux at all before, not in all my computing days, since the Commodore64. | 03:01 |
| Malik_ | WAKD: i was there trying to chat with you but u weren't answering...there must be a problem | 03:01 |
| [agatha] | see Fryguy-- i can suspend, hibernate, logout, switchuser and lock screen. nothing like reboot or simply turn ff :S | 03:01 |
| xtknight | hmm | 03:01 |
| sFEARs | this might not be the correct room, but i'll ask anyway. files that i drag onto my mp3 player from ubuntu play fine but when i go to transfer them onto a windows machine they're not shown. Any idea why? do i need to mount the mp3 player as a different file system type? | 03:01 |
| tux97 | dont feel bad freewarefan i'm just been using linux for a a month or so regualarly | 03:01 |
| Ohm | Hi! How can I see which xmodmap.<something> is used at the moment? | 03:01 |
| Malik_ | Fryguy--: do u know wat mite be the problem with our communication? | 03:01 |
| Fryguy-- | [agatha]: are you logged into your normal user account | 03:01 |
| xtknight | magmack, didi read wrong or were you using dmraid? that is probably a problem since dmraid is SOFTWARE raid only | 03:01 |
| smallfry | fryguy: its connected directly to a sound card. the sound card is called sound blaster. i think its not working because in windows i needed a driver. but i cant find any drivers compatible with ubuntu. | 03:01 |
| [agatha] | yes Fryguy-- it's the only one i have in the computer | 03:01 |
| Fryguy-- | Malik_: no, and please learn to type and spell | 03:01 |
| FreewareFan | tux97: What made you want to start using it? | 03:01 |
| magmack | xtknight yes, I am using dmraid | 03:02 |
| Fryguy-- | smallfry: so the subwoofer is separate from your speaker system? | 03:02 |
| WAKD | Malik_ - you are in channel #Malik_ ?? | 03:02 |
| efirewic2 | sFEARs: what format is your mp3? | 03:02 |
| unop__ | Fryguy--, you're being harsh on him -- have a little patience | 03:02 |
| WAKD | Malik_ I am there now! :_) | 03:02 |
| tux97 | well i was kinda using it when i went to school and then i want server stuff so thats what made me use it lol | 03:02 |
| tux97 | and u freewarefan | 03:02 |
| sFEARs | they're mp3 format | 03:02 |
| Fryguy-- | unop__: have you been paying attention to his conversation. he is borderline retarded | 03:02 |
| xtknight | magmack, ok how exactly are you installing it? | 03:02 |
| xtknight | magmack, sorry im a little confused because dmraid is for software raid, and you have a hardware raid implementation so i'm not sure why it works | 03:03 |
| yoand1 | hi again, does anyone knows if there is a plan on ubuntu to support oracle or vice ? | 03:03 |
| nDuff | xtknight, dmraid is for software raid that pretends that it's hardware | 03:03 |
| regeya | !patience | 03:03 |
| ubotu | The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 03:03 |
| unop__ | Fryguy--, you should keep those opinions to yourself -- it makes the channel more professional (as it should be( | 03:03 |
| nDuff | xtknight, ...or, rather, it's a software raid implementation that's compatible with several fake hardware raid formats... | 03:03 |
| xtknight | i see | 03:03 |
| Fryguy-- | unop__: this channel is hardly professional | 03:03 |
| icesword | ! oracle > icesword | 03:03 |
| FreewareFan | tux97: I just ran across a version of it on usenet, and thought that I'd try it out. Once I did, I found that I like it very much. And it goes along with my lifelong view of free software. | 03:03 |
| nDuff | xtknight, ...so I don't think there's necessarily a contradiction. | 03:03 |
| efirewic2 | sFEARs: I know the mp3's are is the player formatted? | 03:03 |
| [agatha] | hmmm Fryguy-- i was thinking, is there any way to reboot the computer from the commandline? maybe rebooting will be fixed i just don't think pushing the power button is going to be any good... | 03:03 |
| magmack | xtknight I install the packages (dmraid and ntfs3g), activate the array, mount it to /media/win (adding it to fstab), and it works until reboot | 03:03 |
| unop__ | Fryguy--, it tries to be | 03:03 |
| regeya | yeah, not nice to call people retarded; okay to keep it to yourself tho | 03:03 |
| xtknight | lol | 03:04 |
| xtknight | yeah.. | 03:04 |
| Fryguy-- | [agatha]: there is a reboot command yes, and a shutdown command | 03:04 |
| smallfry | fryguy: like all the speakers connect to the box where the subwoofer is mounted with rca jacks. but then theres an input for the with a different end. | 03:04 |
| tux97 | good idea freewarefan | 03:04 |
| yoand1 | icesword: ? | 03:04 |
| Fryguy-- | smallfry: so it's a standard pc speaker setup? | 03:04 |
| efirewic2 | sFEARs: Does windows see the drive and not the files? | 03:04 |
| [agatha] | do you think it may fix something?? i can give it a try and if not maybe we can see more things... to be honest, i dunno what i did | 03:04 |
| smallfry | fryguy: yes | 03:04 |
| magmack | xtknight actually, since the ntfs driver that comes with ubuntu has write by default, I dont think I even installed ntfs3g this last time | 03:04 |
| nDuff | magmack, well -- a few things. you want to be very sure that you're actually mounting the dmraid device, not one of the raw partitions | 03:04 |
| icesword | yoand1, what? | 03:04 |
| Fryguy-- | smallfry: how many connections are made to your sound card? | 03:04 |
| sFEARs | i don't know efirewic2 how do i format it? | 03:04 |
| FreewareFan | tux97: well anyways, nice to meet you. Maybe I'll see you on the fourms one day. Gotta go for now. Later. | 03:04 |
| yoand1 | icesword: oracle? | 03:05 |
| nDuff | magmack, ...and you want to be sure that dmraid actually detected all the relevant partitions. | 03:05 |
| snerfu | Is there some kind of list of wireless cards that are working in either gutsy or hardy kernels without having to use restricted drivers like madwifi? I couldn't find much in the way of that on the wiki. | 03:05 |
| icesword | yoand1, http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/linux/install/xe-on-kubuntu.html | 03:05 |
| tux97 | later freewarefan | 03:05 |
| xtknight | his boot and / aren't raid | 03:05 |
| xtknight | nDuff, ^ | 03:05 |
| xtknight | just one exeternal mount | 03:05 |
| sFEARs | i can't see the files i put on there from windows on ubuntu & i can't see files i put there from ubuntu on windows | 03:05 |
| nDuff | xtknight, isn't it the win32 partition where this is an issue? | 03:05 |
| smallfry | fryguy: there are 3 connections. one for the front speakers. one for the subwoofer. and one for the surround speakers. | 03:05 |
| magmack | nDuff: as I said, dmraid works as expected for all intents and purposes until I reboot | 03:05 |
| * nDuff not sure -- too much traffic in this channel to go through the backtrace. | 03:05 | |
| nDuff | magmack, that doesn't surprise me at all. | 03:05 |
| [agatha] | ok Fryguy-- just "reboot" in the commandline? | 03:05 |
| c-ron | what's a nice bittorrent client for x? i'm not liking ktorrent | 03:06 |
| xtknight | nDuff, well basically he has linux and / and /boot are not raid. then he has a 1gb ntfs dmraid he's installing | 03:06 |
| sensae | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60493/ <-- A pastebin of my xorg.conf. The resolution I want (1680x1050) is listed but I can't change to it. | 03:06 |
| nDuff | ohhh. | 03:06 |
| Fryguy-- | small, you'll only hear the subwoofer then on content that contains a subwoofer channel (movie soundtracks and such). you'll need specialized drivers/config to mix the channels together in other modes | 03:06 |
| pike_ | c-ron: deluge or transmission or utorrent+wine | 03:06 |
| xtknight | nDuff, and the 1gb ntfs mounts and works fine, then he reboots and he can't even boot. | 03:06 |
| icesword | c-ron, utorrent | 03:06 |
| unop__ | snerfu, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCards | 03:06 |
| xtknight | which doent make sense cuz his / and /boot are not raid | 03:06 |
| yoand1 | icesword: sure, it may work, it actually work, but does oracle officially recogn ubuntu as a certified os ? | 03:06 |
| unop__ | snerfu, courtesy !google :) | 03:06 |
| efirewic2 | sFEARs: r u using it through your usb? | 03:06 |
| snerfu | unop__: thanks a bunch. | 03:06 |
| sFEARs | yes efirewic2 | 03:06 |
| smallfry | fryguy: how do i do that? | 03:06 |
| xtknight | magmack, ok. well we might have to make it fail in order to debug it again. it could be a number of things really. it would be helpful if you somehow had access to the ubuntu shell, probably thru recovery mode to try and mount your root. | 03:06 |
| icesword | yoand1, you beat me,ask oracle | 03:06 |
| Fryguy-- | smallfry: no idea | 03:07 |
| nDuff | magmack, re what I was thinking -- dmraid will work fine if it's a RAID-1 and it only mounts one of the two partitions, except that any write operations will be corrupting the store by bringing the two disks out of sync... but as long as they're initially in-sync, whichever of the two disks you mount will be internally consistent so you won't notice until you reboot. | 03:07 |
| smallfry | fryguy: thanks for the help | 03:07 |
| Fryguy-- | smallfry: I use dedicated sound hardware in my audio setup, and my sound card doesn't really do anything, so I can't offer any meaningful advice | 03:07 |
| icesword | yoand1, they charge for service only,right? | 03:07 |
| yoand1 | icesword: ok, thanks! do you know if ubuntu heads have any interest on that? | 03:08 |
| magmack | xtknight: that's what I was thinking. I also have an update for my mb's bios I can install. I'm going to try to install the latest version of ubuntu and install it, see if it still fails. this will take about an hour. will you still be on in an hour? | 03:08 |
| xtknight | magmack, probablyh | 03:08 |
| === theseus is now known as anaxagoras | ||
| icesword | yoand1, maybe you could go to #ubuntu-ops | 03:08 |
| Frogzoo | I get occassional hangs running on battery power, when nothing will do but power off - any suggestions? | 03:08 |
| xtknight | magmack, i will be here but can't guarantee i will know what to do. but ill try anyways ;) | 03:08 |
| nDuff | xtknight, is what I just described (bringing the RAID out of sync, leading to a failure on reboot) believable to you? | 03:08 |
| yoand1 | icesword: mmmm nope, not just for service, they charge every thing, and very expensive! | 03:08 |
| xtknight | nDuff, well this is a mount point noncrucial to booting so i dont really tihnk so | 03:08 |
| bluefox83 | alt + f2 should start that little "run application" dialog thingy, right? | 03:09 |
| magmack | xtknight: ok. i'll get started then. brb. and thanks for the help regardless :) | 03:09 |
| icesword | yoand1, it worths ,i think | 03:09 |
| Fryguy-- | bluefox83: assuming you are running gnome and haven't changed the keybinding, yes | 03:09 |
| smallfry | fryguy: do u think that if i use dedicated sound hardware it will work for me? | 03:09 |
| Fryguy-- | smallfry: yes | 03:09 |
| PurpZeY | Good evening to all. | 03:09 |
| bluefox83 | to my knowledge i haven't, but it's not working! | 03:09 |
| KiTsUnE | oh boy... | 03:09 |
| smallfry | fryguy: how would i do that? | 03:09 |
| Fryguy-- | smallfry: buy a lot of stuff heh | 03:10 |
| PurpZeY | Seems that no one around here knows who I am. That's OK though | 03:10 |
| KiTsUnE | i have messed up something completely Fryguy-- ... mouse won't work over anything at all | 03:10 |
| sensae | Fryguy--: Alt-F2 works on KDE as well | 03:10 |
| smallfry | fryguy: ok thanks | 03:10 |
| yoand1 | icesword: sometimes, :) sometimes not, i mean, its just software, and like any other soft, is buggy :) | 03:10 |
| Fryguy-- | smallfry: talking about audio setups is outside the scope of this channel, and talking to me about it is going to make you feel depressed | 03:10 |
| smallfry | fryguy: i c | 03:10 |
| Fryguy-- | (i've got tens of thousands of dollars worth of audio equipment in my house) | 03:10 |
| Fryguy-- | KiTsUnE: why did you pick my nick lol | 03:11 |
| icesword | yoand1, not only buggy,what we say is "right one for us",but it basically is the universal one | 03:11 |
| dataki1 | I seem to have driver=hostap for my wireless card, but synaptic says it's not installed? | 03:11 |
| sensae | Does anyone know why Xorg is seemingly ignoring xorg.conf? | 03:11 |
| Fryguy-- | sensae: doesn't ignore mine | 03:11 |
| Frogzoo | sensae: /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 03:11 |
| piff | sensae: You need to kill X and then restart | 03:12 |
| bruenig | xorg has taken its cues from xorg.conf for far too long, it's tired of it. It wants to be its own boss. | 03:12 |
| piff | I for one, welcome our new Xorg overlords | 03:12 |
| nikrud | Free X! Free X! | 03:12 |
| sensae | bruenig: Well it's horrible at managing resolutions without it. | 03:12 |
| piff | Free X! | 03:12 |
| piff | <riot!> | 03:13 |
| bruenig | don't you manage it, that is what it is pissed off about | 03:13 |
| bruenig | it wants to be its own manager | 03:13 |
| icesword | nikrud, what makes you so happy | 03:13 |
| unop_ | less power to the people!! | 03:13 |
| piff | is that /bin/less power to the people!!? | 03:13 |
| yoand1 | icesword: let's move to #ubuntu-ops, i would like seen ubuntu as a certified os for oracle, to cut my company's cost :), $1K annual per redhat server... uff | 03:13 |
| nikrud | icesword in a word, Friday. | 03:13 |
| yoand1 | icesword: thanks. | 03:13 |
| === [2]TheDarkBGM is now known as TheDarkBGM | ||
| sensae | Well /var/log/Xorg.0.conf shows it's using xorg.conf. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60493/ But I can't get it to switch to 1680x1050, it demands to be in 1280x1024 | 03:14 |
| icesword | nikrud, yeah,good day | 03:14 |
| * Fryguy-- wonders why he doesn't have any problems with linux like these people do :/ | 03:14 | |
| nikrud | sensae the log would be interesting, but also: did you by any chance set the resolution with system->prefs->screen resolution? It overrides xorg.conf | 03:15 |
| efirewic2 | sFEARs: I "im'd" you... I was trying to figure out that little pblm... | 03:15 |
| unop_ | sensae, is 1680x1050 a valid mode supported by your adapter?? verify using this command -- xrandr -q -s 0 | 03:15 |
| newtubuntu | anybody know how to recover data from an ext3 filesystem folder ? | 03:16 |
| sensae | nikrud: I may have set it to what it was already set to, lol. However, it doesn't even list the proper resolutions there | 03:16 |
| sensae | unop_: Works in Windows. Let me test the command. | 03:16 |
| icesword | newtubuntu, did you overwrite,try testdisk | 03:16 |
| nikrud | sensae then the log would be even more interesting | 03:16 |

| h3xis | i'm trying to format a disk to fat32 using gparted, however fat32 is grayed out in the list of filesystems that i can choose from. anyone know why this may be? | 03:16 |
| unop_ | sensae, works in windows - because you might have the right drivers loaded in windows .. | 03:16 |
| newtubuntu | what is testdisk ? | 03:16 |
| sensae | unop_: It says maximum is 1280x1024, though my card + monitor supports it. I'm using VESA. This is a fresh install | 03:16 |
| nikrud | !recover | newtubuntu | 03:16 |
| ubotu | newtubuntu: Some tools to recover lost data are listed and explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery - Remember that it's tricky to recover deleted files from your journalled !filesystem, and you should keep !backups of important data. | 03:16 |
| Fryguy-- | newtubuntu: any other recommendation you follow is only going to lower the chance of data recovery | 03:16 |
| nikrud | ouch!! | 03:17 |
| Fryguy-- | sensae: vesa maxes out at SVGA, you need to use a real adapter | 03:17 |

| overridex | is there an easy way to remove all my old kernels/kernel modules? | 03:18 |
| sensae | nikrud: Running KDE, no restricted manager. #kubuntu wasn't being any help at all :/ | 03:18 |
| sensae | Unless I just can't find it | 03:18 |
| Fryguy-- | sensae: run "restricted-manager" | 03:18 |
| icesword | newtubuntu, http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk | 03:18 |
| nikrud | sensae sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules$(uname -r) xorg-driver-fglrx , edit vesa to fglrx , and reboot | 03:19 |
| nikrud | sensae typo in my line, did you try Fryguy-- 's thing (quicker, easier) | 03:21 |
| sensae | nikrud: Yeah I'm just using restricted-manager | 03:21 |
| sensae | Wish me luck - restarting Xorg | 03:21 |
| Fryguy-- | heh, i guessed that that program existed | 03:21 |

| hexon | I am trying to run wine /home/hexon/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Microsoft Office/OFFICE11/WINWORD.EXE but the spaces in the folder names wont allow it...How do i fix it? | 03:24 |
| Fryguy-- | monkey_guru: 32bit versus 64bit | 03:24 |
| Fryguy-- | dthacker: log in as root and create/fix the account | 03:24 |
| sensae | That didn't go so well.. | 03:24 |
| lucretian | hexon: try quoting the executable? | 03:24 |
| monkey_guru | Fryguy--: and duo isnt 64 bit then huh | 03:24 |
| xtknight | dthacker, he can go into single-user(Recovery Mode) and type "passwd username" to get a prompt to reset "username"'s password | 03:24 |
| sensae | It boots to a completely black screen. I'm glad I have a second system | 03:24 |
| Fryguy-- | monkey_guru: it is, but 64bit has some weird quirks in linux, and it's slower than 32bit | 03:24 |
| dthacker | xtnight: boot with the live CD? | 03:24 |
| yowshi | Fryguy--: heh i have the 64 bit version since i have a 64bit processor. i originally tried to install the 32bit version of 7.06 but it wouldnt even boot | 03:24 |
| xtknight | dthacker, recovery mode appears at the GRUB start. standard boot | 03:24 |
| unop_ | hexon, wine "/path/to/exec with spaces" | 03:24 |
| hexon | lucretian: should i put the entire thing in "quotes"? | 03:24 |
| hexon | oh | 03:24 |
| hexon | let me try it | 03:25 |
| monkey_guru | Fryguy--: i see, thanks for the advice. for other stuff in the future, i should choose 64 bit then right? | 03:25 |
| lucretian | hexon: like this: wine "/home/hexon/.wine/drive_c/blahblahblah/" | 03:25 |
| piff | the entire path, hexon | 03:25 |
| yowshi | Fryguy--: the 32bit install cd spat out an invalid archetecture kind of message | 03:25 |
| Fryguy-- | monkey_guru: no | 03:25 |
| efirewic2 | sensae: you are probably going to have to edit the xorg.conf manually. | 03:25 |
| xtknight | dthacker, sometimes you need to press ESC at bootup to show the grub menu. Recovery Mode is there. | 03:25 |
| monkey_guru | Fryguy--: ok cool thanks. | 03:25 |
| sensae | efirewic2: Control / Alt + Fkeys (Don't remember the virtual terminal keys) does nothing. | 03:25 |
| overridex | unop_: yeah | 03:26 |
| unop_ | sensae, it's F7 -- but you might like to try this -- sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart | 03:26 |
| lucretian | 1-6 is vtty, 7 is X:0, f8 is X:1 | 03:26 |
| Possu2 | if i downloaded 7.10 now, would I be safe to keep it on my computer and just install the OS update to Heron when it comes out? I don't want to have to reload everything and do a new install | 03:26 |
| sensae | I can't get it to switch out of 7. I don't even have a bash prompt. | 03:27 |
| Fryguy-- | Possu2: yes ubuntu upgrades in place just fine | 03:27 |
| yowshi | Possu2: yes | 03:27 |
| unop_ | overridex, you enabled the resitricted modules? see !nvidia if you havent | 03:27 |
| Fryguy-- | sensae: use the other ctrl and alt keys | 03:27 |
| jrib | Possu2: yes, as long as you stick to official repositories for your software | 03:27 |
| efirewic2 | sensae: when you restart your machine do it in recovery mode and run sudo nano -w etc/X11/xorg.conf | 03:27 |
| sensae | Fryguy--: No dice. Restarting | 03:27 |
| efirewic2 | change the driver to ati | 03:27 |
| overridex | unop_: yeah, i have... shows up in use there, and it's running, just not the glx part of it | 03:28 |
| Possu2 | will they have more servers hosting the update? I remember that on the last OS update it took me 3 days to actually get a decent speed | 03:28 |
| Fryguy-- | Possu2: probably not | 03:28 |
| jrib | Possu2: did you use a local mirror? | 03:29 |
| sensae | efirewic2: Okay, changed it from fglrx to ati. Restarting and crossing fingers | 03:29 |
| poseidon | wubi says that it installs ubuntu 8.04 beta, but when I download the installer it says it's going to install ubuntu 7.10 | 03:29 |
| nikrud | Possu2 find a fast local mirror | 03:29 |
| unop_ | overridex, try this -- sudo aptitude install nvidia-glx linux-restricted-modules$(uname -r) xorg-driver-fglrx | 03:29 |
| overridex | what does "pn" mean in dpkg -l for a package? | 03:29 |
| Possu2 | ok, being in wyoming I woudl probably have to look to Colorado? | 03:29 |
| jrib | !mirror > possu2 (read the private message from ubotu) | 03:30 |
| overridex | unop_: for some reason hardy intalled nvidia-glx-new instead of nvidia-glx for me... | 03:30 |
| mcopple | possu2: If you try to upgrade immediately after release, it will be horribly slow. But if you give it a week, it should be much faster. | 03:30 |
| sensae | efirewic2: A slight improvement. It now boots to a text only login | 03:30 |
| jrib | Possu2: or just use the System -> Administration -> Software Sources to find one for you | 03:30 |
| efirewic2 | sensae: that's not all... | 03:30 |

| Daisuke_Ido | belkinhelp2, you're best using deluge or azureus | 03:32 |

| Daisuke_Ido | Fryguy--, oh, most definitely, for a terminal client. | 03:34 |

| nich0s | Starnestommy: YAY! This is exactly what I remember. Thank you. | 03:34 |

| dontpanic | For some reason samba just got uninstalled by itself somehow | 03:34 |
| sFEARs | BorisDmitri, in your mixer make sure IEC958 switch is turned on.. and sometimes the volume slider for IEC958 playback has to be turned to 0 to activate extra features on higher end audio cards | 03:34 |
| Fryguy-- | Possu2: i think every single client in existance supports that | 03:34 |
| downstairs | quick question: anyone know of an inexpensive pci-e graphics card? | 03:34 |
| Possu2 | i am not finding that on bittorrent | 03:34 |
| downstairs | that's at least 128MB | 03:35 |
| xtknight | dthacker, why, did "passwd username" not work for changing username's password | 03:35 |
| unop_ | dontpanic, perhaps -- aptitude why-not samba | 03:35 |
| sensae | efirewic2: I see the Virtual command on the xorg documentation. It's not clear what it does, and setting it / trying to start Xorg did nothing. | 03:35 |
| lucretian | downstairs: look on newegg | 03:35 |
| lucretian | downstairs: well, are you europe or north america? | 03:35 |
| xtknight | dthacker, you just need to change a passowrd right? but ya useradd works | 03:35 |
| downstairs | North america | 03:35 |
| dontpanic | unop_: I already installed it | 03:35 |
| dontpanic | unop_: (again) | 03:35 |
| efirewic2 | sensae: add it in the "display" section? | 03:36 |
| sensae | efirewic2: Yes I did | 03:36 |
| BlackChaos | please im trying to extract rar files | 03:36 |
| unop_ | dontpanic, i dont think there's a way then -- does it matter now? | 03:36 |
| Daisuke_Ido | downstairs, a 7300gs would be a good choice | 03:36 |
| dthacker | xtknight: I'm not sure if he remembers his username, so I thought I might have him add one. thanks | 03:36 |
| lucretian | downstairs: look here http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&N=2010380048+1069609641&name=PCI+Express+x16 | 03:36 |
| dontpanic | unop_: Well... It would be best if random packages weren't removing themselves | 03:36 |
| dontpanic | unop_: I was just wondering if theres a kind of history | 03:36 |
| xtknight | dthacker, oh. you can list usernames | 03:36 |
| dontpanic | unop_: The why-not thing is still very useful though, thanks | 03:36 |
| xtknight | dthacker, just type "cat /etc/passwd" | 03:37 |
| sensae | efirewic2: It's dying with no screens found | 03:37 |
| efirewic2 | sensae: below the default depth it lists out modes. leave 1024x768 and 800x600 | 03:37 |
| xtknight | dthacker, and you will probably recognize a username somewhere in there | 03:37 |
| downstairs | daisuke_ido:thanks, but what brand is that? | 03:37 |
| Fryguy-- | more specifically, though it's not 100% would be 'grep bash /etc/passwd' | 03:37 |
| BorisDmitri | sFEARs: iec 958 is tyrned on, bot no level for IEC on the mixer | 03:37 |
| xtknight | ya that's better | 03:37 |
| unop_ | dontpanic, it was probably uninstalled because something conflicted with an installed package but you required the conflicting package to be installed -- pay more attention to warnings and errors :) | 03:37 |
| nikrud | unop_ when in the world did why-not appear? that is so cool ;) | 03:37 |
| xtknight | dthacker, follow Fryguy-- 's suggestion "grep bash /etc/passwd" it will list any worthwihle users | 03:37 |
| dthacker | xtknight: ok, will do | 03:38 |
| unop_ | nikrud, sometime in the last release -- i dunno when -- it doesn't appear to be in debian's aptitude | 03:38 |
| dontpanic | unop_: Ok, thanks | 03:38 |

| Daisuke_Ido | downstairs, no clue | 03:38 |
| Daisuke_Ido | it's an nvidia card | 03:38 |

| BorisDmitri | sFEARs: also, the mixer only shows front channel | 03:39 |
| Daisuke_Ido | i just named a particular chipset/model that would be a good price | 03:39 |
| dontpanic | unop_: Wouldn't /var/log/apt/ have all the info in? | 03:39 |
| efirewic2 | sensae: what pci port is the ati card on? | 03:39 |
| AndA1-2-3 | sensae you need to reconfigure your xorg.conf to include the refresh rate and supported resolutions for your video card / monitor combo. | 03:39 |
| belkinhelp2 | ok, so going to the bittorrent site an downloading another client and attempting to install it wont work. The error msg given is that there is already a client installed. What to do? | 03:40 |

| sensae | AndA1-2-3: Now the x server just dies with no screens found | 03:41 |
| AndA1-2-3 | Yes, then you need to reconfigure it. | 03:41 |
| sFEARs | BorisDmitri, you may have to display the other channels.. just because they're not shown doesn't mean they're not there | 03:42 |

| melhiser | ok, million dollar question... is there ANY way to make the ubuntu install CD only install the basic desktop... not all the nice bits (since all I really need is a VERY basic X desktop) | 03:45 |
| unop_ | GTduffman, I can't think of anything but to check the default application in the file's properties -- i dont use gnome, so, i cant be very helpful | 03:45 |
| sFEARs | i know BorisDmitri, but the IEC958 has to do with higher end audio cards.. so if you audio card process true dolby 5.1 it's a higher end card | 03:45 |

| GTduffman | bummer... in the nautilus properties it's set to use MS office, but when I double click it still opens in OO | 03:45 |

| tux97 | hi | 03:46 |
| Goldstein | Yay I'm using ubuntu | 03:46 |
| WAKD | melhiser - what you are looking for is best done by installing from server and then adding what you need. but you will also need to know what from the server packages you will need mate. there's no 'click here' solution for you. | 03:46 |
| melhiser | Fryguy: the catch is, I need the Ubuntu dist... cause the "binary" only driver I need only recoginizes the ubuntu 7.10 signature... I've tried faking it with others... but no luck. I only have a 2gb flash rom to work with. | 03:46 |
| sensae | AndA1-2-3: No screens found | 03:46 |
| GTduffman | congrats on using ubuntu.... first time? | 03:46 |

| melhiser | WAKD: this sounds like what I want... | 03:47 |

| AndA1-2-3 | sensae, try going through it manually then. "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" | 03:47 |

| AdemoS | unop_, will paste entire thing when it's done...failing | 04:19 |
| unop_ | AdemoS, ok, i'll wait | 04:19 |
| AdemoS | unop_, thanks | 04:20 |

| GoldeNArX | hey guys. attempting to use the vnc function (over internet) its on a test box so no data worries. the ports are forwarded but is the vnc server that comes with ubuntu listening on the generic vncports? | 04:20 |
| AdemoS | unop_, current failure: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60499/ | 04:20 |
| belkinhelp2 | ok, i started remote desktop. On my windows machine the vnc client is asking for the server name. What would that be? Or better question is, where on ubuntu can i find the machine name? | 04:21 |
| === willis__________ is now known as Dr__Willis | ||
| GoldeNArX | belkinhelp2 : the RDP client wont work for you. you have to get a vnc client | 04:21 |
| belkinhelp2 | Ugh | 04:21 |
| belkinhelp2 | ok | 04:21 |
| GoldeNArX | its free | 04:21 |
| belkinhelp2 | thats even better | 04:21 |
| Dr__Willis | belkinhelp2, use the ip # of the machine - is easiest | 04:21 |
| GoldeNArX | get tightvnc and install the viewer only. | 04:21 |
| DCLXVI | sorry about the confusion, thanks for the quick fix | 04:22 |
| unop_ | AdemoS, ok, this should do it - sudo aptitude install openoffice.org openoffice.org-core openoffice.org-common openoffice.org-java-common | 04:22 |
| technolab | hi | 04:22 |
| AdemoS | unop_, hmm the java eh? | 04:22 |
| AdemoS | unop_, trying now | 04:23 |
| AdemoS | unop_, run purge first? | 04:23 |
| DarthJim | When trying to install (at the partition phase) I get an error: "Failed to create a swap space. Creation of swap space in partition #5... failed" It's a 40GB drive; AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core | 04:23 |
| unop_ | AdemoS, no no- not necessary -- it's a no-op anyway, it wouldnt do anything since everythings already purged | 04:23 |
| AdemoS | unop_, affirmative, running most recent command | 04:24 |
| Meshezabeel | if I install hardy testing 6, will there be any problems upgrading to the full version when it comes out? | 04:24 |
| unop_ | Meshezabeel, shouldnt be -- but best to ask for hardy support in #ubuntu+1 | 04:25 |
| Meshezabeel | tx :) | 04:25 |
| unop_ | AdemoS, any luck? | 04:25 |
| AdemoS | unop_, nope, new error though http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60500/ | 04:26 |

| bluebanana | Do i have to create anything special? | 04:26 |
| Fryguy-- | bluebanana: no idea | 04:26 |
| GeraldBurns | excuse me, but why isn't there a ubuntu version called "Swarthy Swashbuckler"? | 04:27 |

| unop_ | AdemoS, for some reason the openoffice.org-core package is failing to be installed -- one sec | 04:28 |
| AdemoS | unop_, btw, OpenOffice used to work in the past. It did upgrade recently and I haven't used it till now, with issues. But I the upgrade was done from the update manager, from the official repos, so...I think I'm stuck with this one | 04:28 |
| AdemoS | unop_, thanks | 04:28 |
| GeraldBurns | my phone number is 911, and when you call, say "i'm looking to buy an ounce of yeyo" | 04:28 |

| mark[oz] | GeraldBurns, I'm in australia.. 911 won't work.. | 04:28 |

| GeraldBurns | i don't have to do that with my windows machine | 04:29 |
| Daisuke_Ido | what? | 04:30 |
| unop_ | AdemoS, ok, can you issue this command first and then the last one again -- sudo apt-get install --reinstall util-linux | 04:30 |
| GeraldBurns | sounds superior in my opinion.. | 04:30 |
| fxd | melhiser: uh, i'll try | 04:30 |
| Daisuke_Ido | no, no you don't have to reboot after ubuntu updates. | 04:30 |
| GeraldBurns | yes you do | 04:30 |
| mark[oz] | lol, GeraldBurns go buy a mac | 04:30 |
| Fryguy-- | GeraldBurns: ubuntu users don't have to do it either, unless it's a kernel update | 04:30 |
| AdemoS | unop_, what is util-linux? sounds important | 04:30 |
| unop_ | AdemoS, and we are installing the same packages you installed via synaptic, just using a different method | 04:30 |
| GeraldBurns | macs are for black people | 04:30 |

| blbrown | makes sense | 04:32 |
| melhiser | fxd: to top it off... VIA doesn't want to play nice and talk about how their chips work on the mini-itx boards they're planted on. | 04:32 |

| Fryguy-- | Phoebus: yes | 04:32 |
| * melhiser runs around poking random peoples eyes out | 04:32 | |

| bluebanana | someone here told me about xubuntu server iso. where is that? I'm looking for 2008 edition | 04:33 |
| mark[oz] | Phoebus, if the host is windows, you won't get the true ubuntu experience | 04:33 |
| unop_ | AdemoS, any luck? | 04:33 |
| yowshi | Fryguy--: what is pebkac | 04:33 |
| Fryguy-- | bluebanana: there is ubuntu server, it's right on the main ubuntu page | 04:33 |

| AdemoS | unop_, sorry got delayed, trying now | 04:33 |
| blbrown | fxd: something wrong with your via graphics card? I hate to say it, but you probably want a nvidia 5200-6200 or something. very common and work well with ubu | 04:33 |
| yowshi | sorry not using chair LOL | 04:33 |
| * yowshi is sitting on head thats problem | 04:34 | |
| LSD|Ninja | is there anything _right_ about a VIA graphics card? :P | 04:34 |
| melhiser | blbrown: sorry... not an option... needs to be an embedded system | 04:34 |
| GoldeNArX | ok so I have confirmed that the built in vnc server isnt listening on 5900. does anyone know what port it is listening on? | 04:34 |
| blbrown | LSD|Ninja, nothing, my sound card is working and that is about it | 04:34 |
| fxd | blbrown: any way to watch video without having to get new hardware? | 04:34 |
| melhiser | blbrown: been down this path... I'm just here for bitching at VIA in a public forum | 04:34 |
| Alives | i cant figure out how to get lm-sensors to load the right modules at boot... every boot i have to run sensors-detect to get the modules loaded. lsmod lists lm90 loaded at boot, which is what sensors-detect says to modprobe, but it only works after i run sensors-detect... any ideas? | 04:34 |
| Fryguy-- | GoldeNArX: it's listening on 5900, if it isn't then you don't have it set up correctly | 04:34 |
| Phoebus | mark[oz], I see... well I've been trying all day to get betrayal in antara to work... with a xp 64-bit host. I tried compatibility: failed. I tried windows 98: sound wouldn't effing work, drives gave me blue screen. Tried windows 3.11 even, and doh.. I give up. I'm going to vmware linux and run betrayal in antara in WINE lol. | 04:34 |
| AdemoS | unop_, another error: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60501/ | 04:35 |
| unop_ | GoldeNArX, could be any one of the ports in the 590X range | 04:35 |
| bluebanana | Fryguy--: is Server edition = alternate CD? | 04:35 |
| xtknight | GoldeNArX, well it is listening on 5900. it's tcp i think | 04:35 |
| Fryguy-- | bluebanana: no | 04:35 |
| GoldeNArX | ok. is there a way for me to specify that is listens on port 5900 only | 04:35 |
| GoldeNArX | ? | 04:35 |
| melhiser | blbrown: I wish NVidia would hurry up and join the mini-itx market space... but their shit runs TOOO damn hot | 04:35 |
| blbrown | fxd: maybe, there are sometimes flags to set, if I remember that via site wasn't that bad, and had linux information | 04:35 |
| mark[oz] | Phoebus, the free vmware-server doesn't work on a 64 bit machine.. you'll need to purchase esx | 04:35 |
| Fryguy-- | GoldeNArX: if it's set up correctly then it is listening on 5900 | 04:35 |
| tritium | melhiser: watch the language, please | 04:35 |
| GoldeNArX | Fryguy-- : i've changed no settings. this is default | 04:35 |
| mark[oz] | Phoebus, we had the same problem at work on our dell1950's.. | 04:35 |
| melhiser | blbrown: true dat... just not for anything after 2.6.22 | 04:35 |
| blbrown | melhiser, now that you mention it I have two cards. I probably need to cool my box | 04:35 |
| Fryguy-- | GoldeNArX: then it isn't running | 04:36 |
| Phoebus | mark[oz], I'm using workshop 6, that doesn't work..? | 04:36 |
| Phoebus | hmm | 04:36 |
| bluebanana | Fryguy--: i click the server ed pic, it brings me to http://www.ubuntu.com/products/WhatIsUbuntu/serveredition. then i go to http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download, but server ed is n't there | 04:36 |
| GoldeNArX | yes it is because I can connect to it within the lan. I need to conenct to it outside of the lan | 04:36 |
| unop_ | AdemoS, we're running around in circles -- purge oo.org again and run this - let me know when it completes-- sudo aptitude purge $(dpkg -l | grep -i openoffice | cut -c 3-30); | 04:36 |

| tonyyarusso | !firewall | GoldeNArX | 04:40 |
| ubotu | GoldeNArX: 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). | 04:40 |

| * melhiser give the point to McEnrow | 04:41 | |

| tritium | melhiser: cool it, please, with the channel spam | 04:42 |
| Phoebus | I tried running it on the xp laptop in compatibility also, fail, fail faiiil! :( | 04:42 |
| tonyyarusso | Fryguy--: It doesn't. The ssh server isn't installed out of the box. | 04:42 |
| Daisuke_Ido | melhiser, would you like a piece of Cake? | 04:42 |
| Daisuke_Ido | and now it's bedtime | 04:42 |
| AdemoS | unop_, okay, but please, use the right nick so I can find your commands later, highlighted | 04:42 |
| brent113 | phnoebus: xp doesn't run dos, that's why | 04:42 |
| melhiser | daisuke: nice obsequious reference pick up | 04:42 |
| legend2440 | !cake | 04:42 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about cake - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 04:42 |
| brent113 | phoebus: i've tried scorched earth, you have to run it in a dos vm | 04:42 |
| unop_ | AdemoS, my bad | 04:42 |
| Fryguy-- | tonyyarusso: it was on my system. And arbitrary programs I write that listen on INET sockets worked fine too with no configuration necessary | 04:42 |
| Skitzo | Fryguy--: 7.10, sorry | 04:43 |

| Phoebus | brent113, if I could figure out how to install it and make it use the cd... hmm. | 04:43 |
| Radiobuzz | Hi all! I'm having some issues and I was wondering if someone here would be kind enough to help me :) | 04:43 |
| * melhiser informs ubotu | 04:43 | |
| Daisuke_Ido | !dosbox | brent113. Phoebus | 04:43 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about dosbox - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 04:43 |
| Daisuke_Ido | aww | 04:43 |
| brent113 | phoebus, you can yuo have a lot of options | 04:43 |
| Fryguy-- | Radiobuzz: we can't help you until you ask a meaningful question | 04:43 |
| AdemoS | unop_, same error, pasting | 04:43 |
| tonyyarusso | Fryguy--: Sorry, but you're quite mistaken. The ssh client is installed, but not the server. There are NO open inbound ports on a default install. | 04:43 |
| Dr__Willis | dosbox is a very well done tool. :) | 04:43 |
| Phoebus | I know, I used it to play death rally :P | 04:43 |
| bluebanana | where can i get xubuntu alternate 2008 iso? | 04:44 |
| AdemoS | unop_, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60503/ | 04:44 |
| Radiobuzz | Fryguy, but what if the question is "could somebody help me"? :P | 04:44 |
| Phoebus | You should try out death rally, its addictive :P | 04:44 |
| Fryguy-- | tonyyarusso: so then why can i write a simple 20 line C program that listens on a socket and receives connections? If iptables was configured as deny all this wouldn't be the case | 04:44 |
| bluebanana | Does Xubuntu have an 2008 alternate iso? | 04:44 |
| xtknight | iptables is empty on ubuntu by default | 04:44 |
| Fryguy-- | Radiobuzz: that's not a meaningful question | 04:44 |
| Radiobuzz | just kidding, you can find the question here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4559556 | 04:44 |
| xtknight | there is no firewall on ubuntu | 04:44 |
| Flannel | bluebanana: 8.04, not 2008, and most likely. | 04:44 |
| Fryguy-- | tonyyarusso: you are very mistaken about the default security of an ubuntu install | 04:44 |
| Daisuke_Ido | xtknight, no rules != no firewall | 04:44 |
| xtknight | Daisuke_Ido, at least effectively i mean | 04:45 |
| bluebanana | Flannel: i tried searching for it. Xubuntu is harder to find then ubuntu | 04:45 |
| tonyyarusso | Fryguy--: I don't know what program you're referring to... | 04:45 |
| xtknight | at least on my Gutsy iptables is empty and i can connect vnc or w/e | 04:45 |
| Fryguy-- | tonyyarusso: a hand written 20 line C program that just opens up a socket and accepts connections | 04:45 |
| tritium | Fryguy--: openssh-server is *not* intsalled by default | 04:45 |
| Flannel | bluebanana: Let me grab one for: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/8.04/beta/ | 04:45 |
| xtknight | but openssh server is not installed no | 04:45 |
| Fryguy-- | tritium: it was on my machine | 04:45 |
| unop_ | Fryguy--, what tonyyarusso means is that there are no open and listening ports on a default install -- and i dont think iptables is configured to an implicit deny | 04:45 |
| BorisDmitri | ok | 04:45 |
| tritium | Fryguy--: no, it wasn't | 04:45 |
| Daisuke_Ido | no it wasn't. | 04:45 |
| bluebanana | Flannel: thank you!@!! | 04:46 |
| BorisDmitri | Fryguy | 04:46 |
| Daisuke_Ido | it has to be manually installed. | 04:46 |
| brent113 | wow, everyone flame fryguy hahaha | 04:46 |
| Fryguy-- | unop_: no applications listening on a port has nothing to do with the default firewall configuration | 04:46 |
| Flannel | xtknight: iptables is installed, but no rules exist by default. | 04:46 |
| Stroganoff | bluebanana: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/hardy/beta/ | 04:46 |
| tritium | openssh-client is installed by default, but the the server | 04:46 |
| tritium | s/the/not | 04:46 |
| Fryguy-- | tritium: I installed ubuntu on a headless server and never plugged a keyboard or mouse or monitor into the machine... | 04:46 |
| bluebanana | Flannel: i found the main iso pages, but i hope the link you sent me has the alternate/"server edition" isos. | 04:46 |
| Josdell | Hey everyone I just wanted to ask if the reason most games I download on Ubuntu won't start is because I have an ATI graphics card. | 04:46 |
| Fryguy-- | tritium: that's a hell of a trick of openssh isn't installed by default | 04:46 |
| unop_ | Fryguy--, ok, so there are no applications that have ports open, listening for connections on a default install - is that clear now? | 04:46 |
| oriez | i'm installing ubuntu from the live CD and i get the following error "No root file system is defined. Please correct this from the partitioning menu." when i try to to select the partition | 04:47 |
| Daisuke_Ido | Josdell, that depends on what games they are | 04:47 |
| sbingner | Josdell, uh... we have no idea | 04:47 |
| Dr__Willis | Josdell, depends on the game. You do have the fglrx drivers installed. | 04:47 |
| brent113 | josdell: not sure, but personally I have had 0 luck with ati cards, so i think so | 04:47 |
| Daisuke_Ido | examples, perhaps? | 04:47 |
| sbingner | my ATI card works great with fglrx | 04:47 |
| sbingner | I can play WoW on it | 04:47 |
| tritium | Fryguy--: I'm referring to the desktop CD. Evidently, you're talking about the server intsall. | 04:47 |
| Fryguy-- | unop_: yes that's what I was saying indirectly, and everybody seems to not believe me | 04:47 |
| brent113 | depends on the card, but mine doesn't support compositing so it's terrible | 04:47 |
| Fryguy-- | tritium: server install is still ubuntu, no? | 04:47 |
| malakhi | I can play WoW with the open source ati driver. | 04:47 |
| Josdell | yeah i have downloaded Urban Terror, Nexuiz, and I downloaded World of Padman but they all freeze when I'm about to begin playing | 04:47 |
| * Dr__Willis dosent play WoW at all.. he has a life. | 04:47 | |
| Dr__Willis | :) | 04:47 |
| sbingner | malakhi, the open source is useless to me I think... I have Radeon X1800 | 04:47 |
| sbingner | Dr__Willis, I don't really either ;) | 04:48 |
| tritium | Fryguy--: yes, but not the standard install for the vast majority of its users | 04:48 |
| malakhi | sbingner: quite likely. Mines an R250. fglrx doesn't support it. | 04:48 |
| Dr__Willis | Josdell, be sure you have the fglrx drivers installed properly. | 04:48 |
| BorisDmitri | Fryguy, and all of you, i want to share this, for anyone using some hd audio card | 04:48 |
| brent113 | josdell, what card do you have? | 04:48 |
| Josdell | I do, i"m pretty sure I do | 04:48 |
| Josdell | I have a Radeon 1100 i think | 04:48 |
| Daisuke_Ido | get a cheap $20 card that will actually work by default without having to recompile alsa? | 04:48 |
| * Daisuke_Ido grumbles | 04:48 | |
| brent113 | josdell, are you using the newest drivers off the ati site? they fixed a lot of issues with that release | 04:49 |
| Daisuke_Ido | worst problem i've ever had to help someone with... | 04:49 |
| BorisDmitri | i just edited the /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base and added options snd-hda-intel model=3stack-6ch, and voila!! i have 5.1 audio | 04:49 |
| unop_ | AdemoS, can you try this -- sudo aptitude clean | 04:49 |
| unop_ | Ademan, then -- sudo aptitude install openoffice.org-core openoffice.org-common | 04:49 |
| Josdell | brent113: what site is that, just ati.com? and how would I install the drivers | 04:49 |
| Fryguy-- | BorisDmitri: blog about it | 04:49 |
| unop_ | AdemoS, ^^ | 04:49 |
| brent113 | josdell: one second and I'll send the link, have to find it | 04:49 |
| Dr__Willis | !restricted-manager | 04:49 |
| BorisDmitri | i will ! for sure!!! | 04:49 |
| brent113 | it's not restricted manager | 04:49 |
| Josdell | in the Screen and Graphics right? | 04:50 |
| brent113 | no | 04:50 |
| AdemoS | unop_, sorry sorry | 04:50 |
| AdemoS | unop_, someone come in and distracted me | 04:50 |
| Josdell | how? thanks for the help. | 04:50 |
| AdemoS | unop_, trying now | 04:50 |
| unop_ | AdemoS, likewise | 04:50 |
| fushorts | is there a way to just install grub i have a perfectly good install of linux on my machine but the grub is giving me a error 17 | 04:51 |
| AdemoS | unop_, done | 04:51 |
| Fryguy-- | so tritium, that justifies "correcting" me with something that is blatantly wrong? | 04:51 |
| Flannel | !grub | fushorts | 04:51 |
| tritium | Fryguy--: even on 7.10, the server install require openssh-server to be installed: https://help.ubuntu.com/7.10/server/C/openssh-server.html | 04:51 |
| unop_ | AdemoS, then -- sudo aptitude install openoffice.org-core openoffice.org-common | 04:51 |
| ubotu | fushorts: 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 | 04:51 |
| bluebanana | Flannel: i went to the links you sent me, but all the ISOs are for desktop. The reason I want an alternate / [server ed] of Xubuntu 2008 is because I want to have less "cruft". | 04:51 |
| Flannel | Fryguy--, tritium, take it somewhere else please. #ubuntu-offtopic is a good choice | 04:51 |
| brent113 | josdell: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=588383 | 04:51 |
| Josdell | thanks alot brent | 04:51 |
| Fryguy-- | Flannel: how is discussing packages that are installed in the operating system this channel is named after offtopic? lol | 04:51 |
| tritium | Fryguy--: warning. | 04:51 |
| Flannel | bluebanana: there is no "xubuntu" server edition, as the server edition is GUI-less | 04:51 |
| brent113 | josdell: it's my pleasure | 04:52 |
| Fryguy-- | tritium: for what? | 04:52 |
| tritium | Fryguy--: your last comment | 04:52 |
| Fryguy-- | tritium: which one? the one that I ask a question? | 04:52 |
| Josdell | I'll come back if I need anything else, thanks, see ya. | 04:52 |
| AdemoS | unop_, trying now | 04:52 |
| bluebanana | Flannel: um, i don't think i follow. isn't there a Ubuntu server edition? | 04:52 |
| shonen | ok, xtknight, so far so good | 04:52 |
| tritium | Fryguy--: scroll up. Need I define "last" for you? | 04:52 |
| shonen | i'm about to install dmraid | 04:52 |
| xtknight | shonen, hmm ok | 04:52 |
| onefunk | onefunk | 04:52 |
| Fryguy-- | tritium: if you don't want me contributing 5 hours a day to this channel, just say so, I don't mind not helping people. I'm here more than you, if you'd like to take over for me and help these people out, just let me know. | 04:52 |
| Flannel | bluebanana: Ubuntu is a distro. Theres also an Ubuntu flavor for that distro. Xubuntu is a flavor of Ubuntu. But you're right, there's no alternate CD there. Thats odd. | 04:53 |
| onefunk | hi | 04:53 |
| tritium | Fryguy--: i.e., the one where you claim that https://help.ubuntu.com/7.10/server/C/openssh-server.html is offtopic. Hard to imagine how ubuntu support is offtopic here. Check the /topic | 04:53 |
| bluebanana | Flannel: ok. i'll just go with desktop.iso | 04:53 |
| bluebanana | thanks!! | 04:53 |
| Fryguy-- | tritium: uh, please scroll up, i never said that | 04:53 |
| Phoebus | Fight, fight! | 04:53 |
| Fryguy-- | tritium: I would demand an apology for that right now | 04:53 |
| xtknight | bluebanana, xubuntu alternate CD http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/gutsy/release/ | 04:53 |
| Phoebus | Don't be wussies, start swinging, not flinging :P | 04:53 |
| Daisuke_Ido | that really sounded like a "fine then, i'll take my ball and go home if you don't agree with me" comment... | 04:53 |
| mrynit | is there an easy way to roll back update installs? | 04:54 |
| brent113 | fryguy, you've helped me solve my 3 major problems, yuo gotta stick around | 04:54 |
| Alives | i cant figure out how to get lm-sensors to load the right modules at boot... every boot i have to run sensors-detect to get the modules loaded. lsmod lists lm90 loaded at boot, which is what sensors-detect says to modprobe, but it only works after i run sensors-detect... any ideas? | 04:54 |
| Flannel | xtknight: looking for hardy | 04:54 |
| xtknight | Alives, ya [put them in /etc/modules | 04:54 |
| xtknight | Flannel, ahh | 04:54 |
| Phoebus | And we have helper's competition ^^ | 04:54 |
| Fryguy-- | tritium: http://rafb.net/p/H1AjKO85.html | 04:54 |
| Alives | its in /etc/modules | 04:54 |
| Alives | the module gets loaded | 04:55 |
| Fryguy-- | brent113: apparently my help isn't welcome here | 04:55 |
| onefunk | error messsage keeps popping up at bout about Gnome daemon not loading any solutions? | 04:55 |
| xtknight | Alives, ohh sorry didn't see | 04:55 |
| squizzi | Hey guys.. I'm getting the infamous VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0) kernel panic ... and I'm pretty new to Linux in general. Sooo, yeahhh, any ideas would be helpful, I'm currently burning a live CD so I can get in to my kernel, somehow. | 04:55 |
| brent113 | well i appreciate it | 04:55 |
| JohnMM | Alives, put sensors-detect in /etc/rc5.d script | 04:55 |
| Flannel | bluebanana: It's possible, although seems sort of odd, that xubuntu doesn't provide alternate editions for development version at this time. You could use the server CD and then add xubuntu easily enough (or any of the other two alternate CDs, at that) | 04:55 |
| tritium | Fryguy--: saw the nick highlight, and your nick, but it was from Flannel. Nevertheless, your comment about "blatantly false" was unnecessary, and incorrect. | 04:55 |
| Alives | sensors detect isnt a daemon etc... it just figures out what module you need and edits the appropriate file | 04:55 |
| Fryguy-- | squizzi: did it just start happening out of the blue? are you using raid or anything else "exotic" for your hard drive setup | 04:55 |
| squizzi | no, just started out of the blue | 04:55 |
| AdemoS | unop_, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60504/ | 04:56 |
| squizzi | I was messing with Usplash recently though | 04:56 |
| AdemoS | unop_, thoguh nothing in the Main Menu... | 04:56 |
| Fryguy-- | tritium: great job dodging blame and responsibility there | 04:56 |
| squizzi | So that could be the issue | 04:56 |
| tritium | Fryguy--: again, lose the attitude, please. | 04:56 |
| bluebanana | Flannel: the comp will be used as a desktop. but the reason I was asking for "server edition was because someone told me installing with the server edition will give me less cruft. | 04:56 |
| bluebanana | true or false? | 04:56 |
| brent113 | tritium, fryguy is very helpful to this channel, can we maybe let this 1 misunderstanding go? | 04:56 |
| * Phoebus is now taking bets: tritium vs Fryguy-- | 04:56 | |
| unop_ | AdemoS, ahh paitience -- we still have a few packages to install | 04:56 |
| Daisuke_Ido | Phoebus, no bet. | 04:56 |
| Fryguy-- | tritium: i'm sitting here helping people out, and you and I are having a conversation (that at this point has veered way off topic). Besides the parens, what exactly is the problem? | 04:56 |
| unop_ | AdemoS, sudo aptitude install openoffice.org | 04:57 |
| Fryguy-- | tritium: like I mentioned before, if I'm not welcome here just say so and I will leave. | 04:57 |
| Phoebus | Daisuke_Ido, you sure? Its X1,25 :P | 04:57 |
| charles___ | I just upgraded to the hardy heron beta; my soundcard no longer works, I have an maudio delta that uses the ice1712 driver; when I do an lsmod it isn't loaded, and when I do modprobe ice1712 it says not found, however locate ice1712 yields several snd-ice1712.ko files | 04:57 |
| AdemoS | unop_, oh I'm not annoyed, just curious :P | 04:57 |
| squizzi | Fryguy--: Any ideas? .. | 04:57 |

| Jman | hey can have XP and ubuntu on my computer at the same time? | 04:57 |

| charles___ | Flannel, opps, sorry | 04:57 |
| Phoebus | Jman, yes with vmware-- running at the same time, or with dualboot. | 04:57 |

| kanadian | Jman: search for linux and windows xp dual boot articles on google | 04:58 |

| Jman | haha phoebus | 04:58 |

| zachstar | I am wondering how to install a theme for the boot manager that comes with the latest ubuntu beta | 04:58 |
| Alives | like rdp for linux | 04:58 |
| Radiobuzz | I didn't know this channel was so chaotic so I understand that you don't have the time to go through my thread, so I'll write my questions directly | 04:58 |
| Fryguy-- | Phoebus: nx is software that allows multiple shared x sessions | 04:59 |
| shonen | xtknight: dmraid has been installed, the partition has been mounted, and both read and write work | 04:59 |
| Phoebus | Alives, are there clients for other OS's? | 04:59 |
| Fryguy-- | Phoebus: see a product called FreeNX | 04:59 |
| xtknight | shonen, ok | 04:59 |
| Alives | yes | 04:59 |
| xtknight | shonen, well how did you install dmraiad up to this point | 04:59 |
| xtknight | shonen, like what commands | 04:59 |
| Phoebus | Last q, does the server work on windows? :P | 04:59 |
| Fryguy-- | Phoebus: and see newer substitutes like xpra. Also see related items X11 forwarding and xdmcp | 04:59 |
| fushorts | if i am using a sata drive as my main drive would linux say that is an hd or would it say sd? | 04:59 |
| Radiobuzz | what does this error I get in Nautilus mean and what can I do about it? --- Hash table keys for warning below: | 04:59 |

| brent113 | fushorts:sd | 04:59 |

| AdemoS | unop_, appeared....to work. Paste? Attempt to run? | 05:00 |
| shonen | then sudo mount /dev/mapper/nvidia_bjgfdead1 /media/arc | 05:00 |
| tritium | Fryguy--: of course, and I have for years, but I have a job. How is that question on topic? | 05:00 |
| unop_ | AdemoS, attempt to run | 05:00 |
| AdemoS | unop_, affirmative | 05:00 |
| Fryguy-- | Alives: if you want to mimic that, take a look at the x server xrdp. i'm not sure how complete it is, but it is certainly worth looking at | 05:00 |
| fushorts | when i do the find /boot/grub/stage1 it is telling me that it is on hd2,0 but i have linux on my sata drive | 05:00 |
| Alives | sounds cool | 05:00 |
| Fryguy-- | tritium: it's not, but since i'm helping people and you aren't, i figured i'd ask out of curiosity. since, frankly, you seem useless | 05:01 |

| shonen | xtknight: got all that? | 05:02 |
| AdemoS | unop_, should I get rid of other java jres? | 05:02 |

| Alives | Fryguy--: im having issues with lm-sensors ... the lm90 module is loaded at boot but `sensors` says it cant detect any sensors until i run `sensors-detect` everytime i boot (which just modprobes lm90 anyway)... ideas? | 05:02 |
| Phoebus | Nx server doesn't seem to run on windows, so still not as good as vnc (accessibility), but good to see more in this field. | 05:02 |
| brent113 | fushorts: that is determined by the bios which drive it boots to, and secndly by the grub menu | 05:02 |
| Phoebus | nich0s, noted! ;) | 05:02 |
| shonen | xtknight i used synaptic to install the dmraid package | 05:02 |
| brent113 | fushorts: do you need help configuring grub? | 05:02 |
| shonen | xtknight then sudo mount /dev/mapper/nvidia_bjgfdead1 /media/arc | 05:02 |
| unop_ | AdemoS, i dunno really -- have you tried a reboot? | 05:02 |
| xtknight | shonen, ok and you're saying at this point when you reboot (after mount /media/arc) it wont work? | 05:02 |
| AdemoS | unop_, hmm I did before. I'll try another | 05:02 |
| shonen | xtknight yes | 05:02 |
| xtknight | shonen, let's check a few things. look at your fstab | 05:03 |

| unop_ | ok | 05:03 |
| Zack1403 | hey can anyone help me out with how to deselect packages marked for install | 05:03 |
| Zack1403 | ? | 05:03 |
| fushorts | brent113, possibly | 05:03 |
| shonen | ok, what am i looking for | 05:03 |
| brent113 | !grub | fushorts | 05:03 |
| ubotu | fushorts: 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 | 05:03 |
| shonen | xtknight ok, what am i looking for | 05:03 |
| Flannel | Zack1403: in synaptic? or what? | 05:03 |
| fushorts | i am reading this link that was given to me however i dont know that hd2 is the proper drive for grub | 05:03 |
| xtknight | shonen, hmm. im not surebut i was thinking maybe dmraid modified your fstab somehow, preventing boot | 05:03 |
| Possum234 | I ran into the infamous grub error 17. Can anyone help me? | 05:04 |
| squizzi | Anyone else? I'm getting the infamous, VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0) kernel panic ... and I'm pretty new to Linux in general. I was messing with uSplash, and customizing my uSplash a bit and rebooted after customizing it to be welcomed by that kernel panic. | 05:04 |
| shonen | xtknight: fstab is still using the uuid to mount the root partition | 05:04 |
| Possum234 | or point me where to start looking fo a solution? | 05:04 |
| fushorts | OOH possum234 that is what i am talking about lol | 05:04 |
| shonen | xtknight and the raid is not in the fstab | 05:04 |
| Possum234 | yes. lucky I have xp that magically appeared | 05:05 |
| xtknight | shonen, ok. do you know if dmraid modifies the kernel at all | 05:05 |
| brent113 | fushorts: if you are not positive which drive is which, type df -H into a terminal to list the drives and their sizes to get the names | 05:05 |
| Zack1403 | Flannel: well i was using apt-get | 05:05 |
| xtknight | shonen, i know md does | 05:05 |

| Solari1 | hey, anyone able to help me out with a quick question re: triple booting (ubuntu/fedora/xp) and the highest number of partitions available? (i'm pretty much brand new at this) | 05:05 |
| Possum234 | or else i would still have the live cd to go off of | 05:05 |
| Zack1403 | Flannel: new to ubuntu | 05:05 |
| Daisuke_Ido | rule one; never taunt ops | 05:05 |
| shonen | xtknight I do not know | 05:05 |
| fushorts | Possum234, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows | 05:05 |
| Possum234 | no, I had windows before ubuntu | 05:05 |
| shonen | xtknight it did not install a new image or anything, so at most it is just loading some new modules | 05:05 |
| Solari1 | facepalm.jpg? | 05:05 |
| Flannel | Zack1403: I don't understand your problem then. You had something installed and now you want to remove it? or what? | 05:05 |
| xtknight | shonen, do you know if recovery mode booted fine | 05:06 |
| xtknight | shonen, (dont try it yet) | 05:06 |
| Possum234 | I would like to know how to solve grub error 17 | 05:06 |
| brent113 | fryguy, if you want to jump in here, by all means, you probably know more about grub than I do | 05:06 |
| shonen | xtknight recovery mode did not work before | 05:06 |
| Possum234 | so that I can begin to ween myself off of windows and go to linux | 05:06 |
| xtknight | shonen, same error right? | 05:06 |
| shonen | xtknight correct | 05:06 |
| Daisuke_Ido | brent113, fryguy has left the building | 05:06 |
| xtknight | shonen, you're on gutsy? | 05:06 |
| Solari1 | hey, anyone able to help me out with a quick question re: triple booting (ubuntu/fedora/xp) and the highest number of partitions available? (i'm pretty much brand new at this) | 05:06 |
| Phoebus | Possum234, that will happen for me when Adobe goes Linux.. or fully supports it. Wining CS 3 doesn't work well, tried it. | 05:06 |
| squizzi | Yeah, so starting my LiveCD gives me a PCI-BIOS Bug Found, could this be connected with my kernel panic? | 05:06 |
| Radiobuzz | Hey, can I re-ask my question? Are there any rules against repeating lines? | 05:06 |
| brent113 | daisuke, o snap | 05:06 |
| Zack1403 | Flannel: by accident i did apt-get install b43*, it said a bunch of stuff is marked for install, will this stuff get installed on like a apt-get upgrade? | 05:07 |
| AdemoS | unop_, *sigh* still not working, but new errors, panel....errors: http://img87.imageshack.us/img87/7043/twopanelerrorsqf4.png | 05:07 |
| Solari1 | if there are, i'm about to be kicked radiobuzz | 05:07 |
| shonen | xtknight yes, the latest gutsy | 05:07 |
| Radiobuzz | hehe | 05:07 |
| Zack1403 | Flannel: i was looking for the fc equivilant like yum search b43* | 05:07 |
| Newbuntu2_ | I'm having problems reading a file: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60369/ How can I recover it?? | 05:07 |
| squizzi | Yeah Solari1 and Radiobuzz ... I would of been megakicked :O | 05:07 |
| fushorts | brent113, right now i am running off the live cd of linux so it is not giving me a very accurate display of what i was hoping to see | 05:07 |
| Flannel | Zack1403: did you hit 'n' to cancel it? you want apt-cache search [stuff], but, why not use synaptic? | 05:07 |
| brent113 | fushorts: for a grub error 17: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=442945 | 05:07 |
| shonen | xtknight I just modified my menu.lst to disable the splash screen and quiet so that we will get messages on the next boot | 05:07 |
| nich0s | Question: Is there a recommended C++ environment for Linux? | 05:07 |
| xtknight | shonen, try "sudo update-initramfs -k `uname-r`" ( i believe this is the cmd) | 05:07 |
| brent113 | fushorts, I'm not exactly certain what your problem is | 05:07 |
| xtknight | shonen, this updates initrd i think. i dont know but sometimes thats a fix for the other sw raid | 05:08 |
| unop_ | AdemoS, hmm .. do they restart if you ask them to? | 05:08 |
| xtknight | shonen, dont have much to lose | 05:08 |
| Possum234 | nich0s, do u mean IDE? | 05:08 |
| fushorts | ok i will read more into the links you have provided thank you | 05:08 |
| AdemoS | unop_, what command should I use for that? | 05:08 |
| Daisuke_Ido | nich0s, vim. although eclipse with the c++ plugins is a good option | 05:08 |
| brent113 | nich0s: I have used anjuta before and liked it a lot | 05:08 |
| Daisuke_Ido | assuming that's available | 05:08 |
| Flannel | Zack1403: sudo apt-get -s update, will simulate, so you can double check that it wont | 05:08 |
| AdemoS | unop_, and should I click delete or don't? | 05:08 |
| Possum234 | devc++ is good although I am not sure its available for linux | 05:08 |
| xtknight | shonen, maybe same problem here http://sudan.ubuntuforums.com/showthread.php?page=2&t=630645 | 05:08 |
| Daisuke_Ido | i should have checked before spewing info | 05:08 |
| nich0s | I guess I'll have to try them all! Thanks. :) | 05:09 |
| Flannel | Zack1403: er, upgrade. update refreshes your package.litss | 05:09 |
| Radiobuzz | what does this error I get in Nautilus mean and what can I do about it? | 05:09 |
| Radiobuzz | --- Hash table keys for warning below: | 05:09 |

| AdemoS | brb | 05:09 |
| Zack1403 | Flannel: it said that there were broken packages and ended, would i have to confirm before any install? | 05:09 |
| shonen | xtknight: "You must specify at least one of -c, -u, or -d." | 05:09 |
| Zack1403 | Flannel: but it still said a bunch of packages were selected | 05:09 |
| Solari1 | NEED HALP... i'm trying to triple boot ubuntu/xp/fedora and currently have a swap partition and two ext partitions set up with ubuntu and fedora on installed... i tried to install XP now and when i tried to partition the extra space, it said it was impossible due to there being too many partitions... is there any way around this? | 05:09 |
| Zack1403 | Flannel: ill run the simulation | 05:09 |
| xtknight | shonen, try "sudo update-initramfs -u -k `uname-r`" | 05:10 |
| AdemoS | unop_, indentical errors on re-login....on a side note, updater wants to install gnome-panel *laughs* | 05:10 |
| brent113 | radiobuzz: http://tinyurl.com/22qwzv is this applicable at all? | 05:10 |
| xtknight | shonen, maybe when you add the dmraid it creates another drive. potentially drive order problems in grub? i dont know what sense this makes but it's possible. i didn't think dmraid was loaded that quickly | 05:10 |
| lucretian | Solari1: reinstall one of the linux installations as non-primary drive (logical partition) | 05:10 |
| Flannel | Solari1: you need to create an extended partition, and then put logical partitions inside of it for additional ones | 05:10 |
| Solari1 | ah... thanks to both of you flannel and lucretian... i'm very new to this | 05:10 |
| shonen | xtknight: "No arg for -k option" | 05:10 |
| Solari1 | time to start over! | 05:10 |
| unop_ | AdemoS, you probably need to install that update -- it might fix the issue -- and i dont think this has anything to do with openoffice, its a completely different issue | 05:10 |
| Zack1403 | Flannel: ok so it said 0 for everything, that means nothing will be installed right ? :) | 05:10 |
| xtknight | shonen, sudo update-initramfs -k `uname -r` -u | 05:11 |
| AdemoS | unop_, well I remember during the purge it mentioned panel....not sure why. Installing from updater now | 05:11 |
| xtknight | that works here | 05:11 |
| Phoebus | Wow the nx testdrive is impressive :D | 05:11 |
| xtknight | shonen, sudo update-initramfs -k $(uname -r) -u | 05:11 |
| shonen | xtknight: wait now its working... you missed a space between uname and -r | 05:11 |
| xtknight | is also the same thing | 05:11 |
| xtknight | ahh sorry | 05:11 |
| Flannel | Zack1403: uh, I don't know what '0 for everything' means, but sounds like it, yes. | 05:11 |
| shonen | xtknight: the command seems to have worked | 05:11 |
| Zack1403 | Flannel: 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded. | 05:12 |
| Flannel | Zack1403: aye. Looks good. | 05:12 |
| xtknight | shonen, alright. well how about we try something else. type grub. yes, grub | 05:12 |

| gregcha117 | when i type alsamixer i get "alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default" | 05:12 |
| shonen | xtknight now what | 05:13 |
| Flannel | Zack1403: well, if its a fresh install, you can always reinstall. But yeah, check synaptic out. | 05:13 |
| SkinnypuppY34 | Anyone know a good deal online for 22 + inch lcd monitors other than pricewatch? | 05:13 |
| unop_ | gregcha117, I think all you might need to do is set the default sound device | 05:13 |
| Flannel | !offtopic | SkinnypuppY34 | 05:13 |
| unop_ | !sound | gregcha117 | 05:13 |
| ubotu | SkinnypuppY34: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 05:13 |
| Zack1403 | Flannel: thanks! | 05:13 |
| ubotu | gregcha117: 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 | 05:13 |
| xtknight | shonen, sorry. exit. then "sudo grub" | 05:13 |
| Radiobuzz | brent113, no, I don't think so, for some reason my password doesn't work when I call "su" :S | 05:13 |
| shonen | xtknight i did now what | 05:13 |
| Radiobuzz | but in any case seems like a different problem... | 05:13 |
| xtknight | shonen, um now we're going to do some detective work | 05:14 |
| gregcha117 | when i doubleclick on the volume i get "no volume control Gstreamer plugins and/or devices found" | 05:14 |

| AdemoS | unop_, hmm same error. Will try deleting and re-installing the pannel aps from menu | 05:14 |
| xtknight | shonen, you have to type this exactly. type "cat (hd0," and then press TAB. it shold list devices under hd0 | 05:14 |
| AdemoS | unop_, urgh....every time I try to drag out a new panel app, same error | 05:14 |
| AdemoS | unop_, >_< | 05:14 |
| xtknight | shonen, then you'll want to open your /boot/grub/menu.lst in another text editor or something. we are going to make sure that the HD numbers haven't changed for some reason. | 05:15 |
| unop_ | AdemoS, hmm, not sure i can help much with this -- i dont use gnome | 05:15 |

| dryder | install method - is there a way to do this? I like to boot via f12 if I don't want my default. I install ubuntu versions on separate hdds - unplugging all others so grub gets installed on that one drive. Problem: when I plug in the other drives the original "sd" designations in my fstab file are wrong - which means it doesn't 'line up with mtab and the Disk Analyzer is wholly inaccurate. Do I have to unplug other drives when installing | 05:16 |
| xtknight | hmm that's interesting. i just noticed that in menu.lst | 05:16 |
| fushorts | brent113, would sda1 be (sd0,1) | 05:16 |
| jeff__ | cvbvb vc | 05:17 |
| xtknight | sda1 should be (hd0,0) | 05:17 |
| Captain_Asshat | hey quick question, the swap partition has to be twice my ram it says | 05:17 |

| AdemoS | unop_, what the heck. OTHER panel apps work, but volume and trash are broken X_X | 05:17 |

| AdemoS | unop_, will try to completely remove gnome-panel and reload it | 05:17 |
| === Captain_Asshat is now known as Jman | ||
| fushorts | i have 1 sata and 2 ata and it says that (hd2,0) is grub but i think that is wrong that is why i ask | 05:18 |
| unop_ | AdemoS, yea, it's probably because they are seperate process on their own -- and the processes might be failing to stay alive | 05:18 |
| xtknight | shonen, so i assume hd(0,4) is your /boot and hd(0,1) is your / | 05:18 |
| Jman | It says my ram should be 2x my ram, is there a max size to that cuz i have 2 gigs of ram, should i really make it 4 gigs? | 05:18 |
| unop_ | Jman, is this regarding swap size? | 05:18 |
| Jman | yes | 05:18 |
| xtknight | fushorts, sda1 is (hd0,0) | 05:18 |
| Jman | excuse me i meant to say that | 05:18 |
| AdemoS | unop_, still stuck.....trying re-loging then rebooting | 05:19 |
| shonen | xtknight: no, 0 is my windows partition, 1 is my root and 4 is my swap | 05:19 |
| unop_ | Jman, well, it can be as big as possible -- but atleast 2x size of ram | 05:19 |
| xtknight | fushorts, sometimes grub can diff from linux notations though because of drive order and recognition | 05:19 |
| xtknight | shonen, oh ok. so /boot is on root | 05:19 |
| Jman | ok so for gigs isn't gonna freak anything out | 05:19 |
| shonen | xtknight: commented out one instance of savedefault on my windows partition line | 05:19 |
| Jman | four* | 05:19 |
| shonen | xtknight: correct | 05:19 |
| xtknight | my swap is 8 | 05:19 |
| xtknight | ;) | 05:19 |
| Jman | ok lol | 05:19 |
| Jman | thank a lot guys | 05:19 |
| xtknight | shonen, alright so (hd0,1) is / | 05:19 |
| xtknight | shonen, and do you see that in menu.lst | 05:20 |
| xtknight | shonen, for root | 05:20 |
| shonen | xtknight: lets open a private chat window so that i dont have to keep typing xtknight | 05:20 |

| unop__ | zer0ne, the only thing that works in a fluxbox session firstly is the menu -- right click on the desktop and you should see it | 05:25 |
| unop__ | zero88, ^^ | 05:26 |
| zero88 | unop_, I do rigt-click on desktop but nothing happens at all | 05:26 |
| zero88 | :) | 05:26 |
| lucretian | is your mouse configured correctly? | 05:26 |
| unop__ | zero88, thats not normal -- reinstall fluxbox?? | 05:26 |
| lucretian | try some other mouse buttons first | 05:27 |
| Radiobuzz | Ok, I'll ask another related question: do you know those files called %gconf-tree-x? 1) Where do they go? On /var/lib/gconf/defaults or on a folder inside that? 2) What are they? Because the real problem is that I think I've lost my Gnome settings since everything is working weird, the desktop, the start menu, the mouse... | 05:27 |
| zero88 | unop_, ya i guess i could try that | 05:27 |
| ere4si | zero88: you need to make a menu file in .fluxbox | 05:27 |
| zero88 | unop_, thanks | 05:27 |
| zero88 | ere4si, Really? Before i use fluxbox? How do i go about doing that? | 05:28 |
| tux97 | whats the program name for rar files? | 05:28 |
| ere4si | zero88: I'll get you a link | 05:28 |
| AdemoS | unop_, yeah I asked, we'll see | 05:28 |
| zero88 | ere4si, k thanks. all the tuts ive seen just say apt-get install fluxbox | 05:29 |
| ere4si | zero88: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=371144 - is the one I used for the box I'm on now :) | 05:29 |

| LimCore | ubuntu sucks about security, can this be changed? | 05:30 |
| PriceChild | LimCore: what is wrong? | 05:30 |
| unop | LimCore, what's bad about ubuntu's security? | 05:30 |
| amenado | LimCore-> how did you come to that conclusion? | 05:30 |
| squizzi | w00t I fixed my issue on my own | 05:30 |
| lucretian | dryder: you don't need to take out the drives | 05:30 |
| tux97 | what do you guys use to open rar files? | 05:31 |
| tritium | LimCore: could you please give an example of what you mean? | 05:31 |
| LimCore | PriceChild: -did you know about this cool program called "scponly" -no.. hmm ok I will install it. [3 minutes] -omg, how you hacked into my box? I never run an sshd server WTF | 05:31 |
| unop | tux97, unrar | 05:31 |
| belkinhelp2 | is there a client VNC on ubuntu. I have found Remote Desktop but thats server...i need a viewer | 05:31 |
| zero88 | ere4si, thanks this is EXACTLY what i need | 05:31 |
| PriceChild | LimCore: so ubuntu's security sucks because you install something, don't know what you're doing, and get rooted? | 05:31 |
| LimCore | simply INSTALLING scponly security tool, results in EXECUTION of SSH server! (and with root permit!) so its trivial to hack in | 05:31 |
| tux97 | unop where do i get unrar from? | 05:32 |
| dryder | lucretian - just about to leave ... may i re-ask another day without offending any1? | 05:32 |
| ere4si | zero88: good luck - fluxbox is excellent :) | 05:32 |
| lucretian | dryder: you just need to be able to figure out which drive is which, which you can test during the install by switching to a console (ctrl+alt+f2), mounting the different /dev/sd*# devices and finding the one you wish to install onto next | 05:32 |
| unop | tux97, apt-get install unrar | 05:32 |
| LimCore | PriceChild: yes. this is less secure then windows. on windows you have to install and RUN a server to get owned | 05:32 |
| tux97 | ok ty | 05:32 |
| orudie | is there a way to create a new database user in phpmyadmin ? | 05:32 |
| lucretian | dryder: probably | 05:32 |
| mrynit | unrar out dated | 05:32 |
| mrynit | nvm | 05:32 |
| zero88 | ere4si, ya it is. alot cleaner | 05:32 |
| SeveredCross | orudie: Use the Permissions section. | 05:32 |
| belkinhelp2 | speaking of server...i need a viewer for VNC | 05:32 |
| belkinhelp2 | not server like remote desktop | 05:32 |
| TuTUXG_ | vncviewer | 05:33 |
| unop | LimCore, that depends if the installer chooses to run the server when it completes -- most ubuntu package installers do that | 05:33 |
| lucretian | LimCore: is there some vulnerability in sshd? | 05:33 |
| dryder | thanks - sorry to cut n run ... - nite all .... | 05:33 |
| TuTUXG_ | i thought it's default in gusty | 05:33 |
| belkinhelp2 | right....is vncviewer already on ubuntu? | 05:33 |
| belkinhelp2 | if so, where | 05:33 |

| lucretian | "mount" will show active partitions | 05:38 |
| tritium | kenboo: 256MB is recommended | 05:38 |
| Infest | lucretian, just need it for the grub configuration.. | 05:38 |
| kenboo | uh i just have 256MB ;-) barely passed the minimum. haha | 05:38 |

| unop | lucretian, are there passive partitions too?? j/k :) | 05:38 |
| lucretian | Infest: be careful, IIRC gurb uses 0-indexing and udev uses 1-indexing | 05:38 |
| lucretian | so /dev/hda1 is actually (hd0,0) in grub | 05:39 |

| unop_ | Belkinhelp3, you working on ubuntu here right? not windows? | 07:01 |
| xjjk | has anyone used encrypted disks? how is it? | 07:01 |
| unop_ | Belkinhelp3, because netstat -rn is valid on windows too | 07:01 |
| Belkinhelp3 | route -n also shows nothing | 07:01 |
| Belkinhelp3 | IRC right now with windows | 07:02 |
| Belkinhelp3 | since both NICs are down on ubuntu | 07:02 |
| Belkinhelp3 | now im going to bring only one up at a time | 07:02 |
| Zack1403 | Parsec300: are you able to connect using the normal wireless tool in the upper right hand corner? | 07:02 |
| bazhang | solid_liq: well no info then no help; if you can give a clear idea of what is wrong then this is a good place for it; if not then no idea ;] | 07:02 |
| unop_ | Belkinhelp3, did you say both computers are connected via a router? | 07:02 |
| Belkinhelp3 | yes | 07:03 |
| unop_ | Belkinhelp3, can both machines ping the router? | 07:03 |
| Parsec300 | Yes, I was able to do that. Zack1403, the best advice I can give you is to use 7.10 for the time being as that card I mentioned works flawlessly in 7.10. Then wait until sometime in April for the actual release version to come out. I think it all should work fine by then. | 07:03 |
| Belkinhelp3 | windows can ping the router | 07:03 |
| Belkinhelp3 | ill see if ubuntu can now that the other card is disabled | 07:04 |
| Belkinhelp3 | roaming mode means DHCP im assuming? | 07:04 |
| Belkinhelp3 | That was teh problem the whole time i think | 07:04 |
| Zack1403 | Thank you Parsec300 | 07:04 |

| bullgard4 | unop_: Please tell me what 'the messagebus user' is. I do not understand. | 07:10 |
| unop_ | belkinhelp2, no, that wont work -- try 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.0.1:0 or 192.168.0.1:1 | 07:10 |
| xJPM100x | could someone tell me how to upgrade Gnome 2.20.1 to Gnome 2.22? | 07:10 |
| belkinhelp2 | !unop the entire network is on 192.168.1.X | 07:10 |
| belkinhelp2 | OH | 07:10 |
| bullgard4 | xJPM100x: My recommendation: Wait for the new Ubuntu release in April. | 07:11 |
| unop_ | belkinhelp2, ok, substitute the right address there, you get my point | 07:11 |
| tsukasa__ | okay, i installed ubuntu-xen-server using default settings and my networking doesnt work anymore. After playing around with the settings i figured out how to enable nat networking in Xen, but all these bridges are still around messing with my system. I already cleaned up /etc/network/interfaces, doesnt really help | 07:11 |
| unop_ | bullgard4, the messagebus user is the user that the dbus daemon run under | 07:11 |
| xJPM100x | bulgard4, yes I was thinking about that, but was wanting to try it out before its release with hardy heron XD | 07:11 |
| belkinhelp2 | hmm...how do i force VNC to close...the application crashed | 07:12 |
| unop_ | belkinhelp2, the client or the server? | 07:12 |

| belkinhelp2 | unop shouldnt the windows IP be sufficient? | 07:17 |
| bazhang | language RoBzZ | 07:17 |
| unop_ | belkinhelp2, you might need to append :0 or :1 after the hostname/ip address | 07:17 |
| crucified_ | bazhang, so you want me to apt-get right? | 07:18 |
| unop_ | belkinhelp2, thats to distinguish different sessions running on the vnc server | 07:18 |

| aicou | yes sry | 07:21 |
| belkinhelp2 | unop...that works for entering files into emule but when I archive across the several disks i would need more access | 07:21 |
| belkinhelp2 | let me try somthing geeky here | 07:22 |

| ThreeFingerPete | can someone recommend me a KVM Switch that is 'buntu and xp friendly? | 07:23 |
| bullgard4 | unop_: I understand that top's 'messageb' is short for /etc/passwd's 'messagebus'. Why have people included messagebus as a _user_ of of my computer? | 07:23 |

| xJPM100x | how woudl I go about removing all files associated with pidgin from my system? | 07:24 |
| unop_ | bullgard4, the reasoning is that you dont want a system service (like a messagebus) to be running with root's privileges, so you enforce the policy of least-privilege by creating a user with limited rights and running the service under the context of the user | 07:25 |
| bazhang | polish oZmO-x? | 07:25 |
| oZmO-x | bazhang: yes | 07:25 |
| Starnestommy | xJPM100x: try sudo apt-get remove --purge pidgin | 07:25 |
| bazhang | #ubuntu-pl oZmO-x | 07:26 |
| oZmO-x | Panowie.. jak usunac skrot kosza z kosza ? :)))))))) | 07:26 |
| unop_ | bullgard4, that way if the service is compromised, it has little capability to ruin the system | 07:26 |
| oZmO-x | ok | 07:26 |
| unop_ | belkinhelp2, if ever i need anything from your download collection -- i'll ask :) | 07:26 |

| sheleztt | hi people) how can i watch xvid movies? i've already installed all codecs i'm probably in need. Lastly i installed mplayer and codecs via automatix) help, please) | 07:27 |
| bullgard4 | unop_: I understand that this is a security measure. Why didn't the programmers create a messagebus _group_ instead? | 07:27 |
| bazhang | sheleztt: automatix uh oh | 07:28 |
| === crucified_ is now known as infest | ||
| sheleztt | what? )) automatix is bad?) | 07:29 |
| unop_ | bullgard4, a group is only necessary when you have 2 or more users with some common trait or function -- but only one user is needed here, therefore it makes no sense to have a group (although one could have been created, it'd remain redundant) | 07:29 |
| bullgard4 | sheleztt: Yes, automatix is evil. | 07:29 |
| bazhang | sheleztt: may as well back up and reinstall | 07:29 |

If I don't have the card in, it works just fine. The card works on other systems. Looking in the forums, it says I need to install the nvidia-glx restricted driver. how do i do that from the recovery prompt? | 07:53 |

| yowshi | i do have the restricted drivers enabled for my nvidia card | 07:55 |

| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about epson - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 07:55 |

| xJPM100x | well I redownloaded the source | 07:58 |
| bazhang | Guest41828: anywhere but here | 07:58 |
| xJPM100x | have it extarcted | 07:58 |
| xjohnthomasx | unop_: besides this, gnome runs better than kde for me.. what do you run? can anyone else help me? unop, do you recommend anyone in particular in here who might be able to help?? | 07:58 |
| ethan961 | xJPM100x, cd to the source directory, and perform "sudo make uninstall" | 07:58 |

| _doolzz | lol | 07:58 |

| Thkaal | Any ideas on how to handle a geforce2? | 07:59 |
| unop__ | xjohnthomasx, i run some parts of gnome on fluxbox | 07:59 |
| Guest41828 | ok. never mind..... | 07:59 |
| Starnestommy | xJPM100x: try make deinstall | 07:59 |
| brent113 | make remove maybe? | 07:59 |
| xjohnthomasx | unop_: i already tried deleting the panel files and cleaned them completely.. and then restarted.. and it still didn't work.. | 07:59 |
| artenius | Guest41828: you got mad at someone on dalnet, so you want a hacker to do your dirty... | 07:59 |
| artenius | ahh he left | 07:59 |
| xJPM100x | same thing | 08:00 |

| Thkaal | Hi all, got a question here. I have a geforce2 mx 400 video card that won't let me load up ubuntu. it just goes black from the usplash screen and then dies. If I don't have the card in, it works just fine. The card works on other systems. Looking in the forums, it says I need to install the nvidia-glx restricted driver on 7.04. how do i do that from the recovery prompt? | 08:00 |
| icesword | murlidhar, i would say,maybe it isn't ,you know linux has a universal support for print | 08:00 |
| pretender | Can anyone point me to where i might find a DVD Case Template for the Gimp | 08:00 |
| xJPM100x | tried make remove, same thing | 08:00 |
| artenius | I apologize, I've no tolerance for that type of stuff | 08:00 |
| brent113 | thkaal: do you have dpkg or apt-get in recovery mode? | 08:00 |
| yowshi | . | 08:00 |
| yowshi | oops | 08:00 |
| artenius | we're here to help and be helped with Ubuntu, not hacking | 08:00 |
| icesword | murlidhar, if you cannot find the specific one,just use the common way to try it | 08:01 |
| bazhang | artenius: me either; just send them to ##windows ;] | 08:01 |
| unop__ | xjohnthomasx, can you try this -- create another user -- log on that user and see if they experience the same problem | 08:01 |
| artenius | ahaha | 08:01 |
| xjohnthomasx | artenius: can you help me? i dont know why my applications drop down menu doesn't appear.. i can't see my programs! | 08:01 |
| xjohnthomasx | unop_: same problems. tried that. no luck. | 08:01 |
| artenius | xjohnthomasx: using gnome? | 08:01 |
| xjohnthomasx | artenius: yes | 08:01 |
| bazhang | xjohnthomasx: you have some suspect repos? | 08:01 |
| xjohnthomasx | bazhang: what do you mean? i dont think so.. it's possible.. how do i know, and what would that do? | 08:02 |
| artenius | xjohnthomasx: have you tried logging out and changing sessions to KDE or another desktop environment? | 08:02 |
| yowshi | grrr i completly lost the cube thing after using atl+tab | 08:02 |
| bazhang | xjohnthomasx: well that would break your system perhaps | 08:02 |
| xjohnthomasx | artenius: dont have kde on here. tried logging out. tried clearing panel files. tried new user. all same problem. | 08:02 |
| artenius | hmm | 08:02 |
| murlidhar | icesword, my printer is not there. | 08:03 |
| artenius | lspci | grep vga | 08:03 |
| xjohnthomasx | artenius: it's just the applications drop down menu. the places and the system drop down menus appear fine. | 08:03 |
| artenius | sounds like a video card issue maybe | 08:03 |
| bazhang | xjohnthomasx: how about pastebinning your sources.list | 08:03 |
| xjohnthomasx | bazhang: ok, one sec. | 08:03 |
| artenius | xjohnthomasx: installed any new themes in gnome lately? | 08:04 |
| icesword | murlidhar, is your printer recognized? | 08:04 |
| xjohnthomasx | artenius: dont think so.. | 08:04 |
| xjohnthomasx | bazhang: where do i find said file | 08:04 |
| murlidhar | icesword, yes | 08:04 |
| artenius | /etc/apt/sources.list | 08:04 |
| icesword | murlidhar, then what doesn't work | 08:04 |
| xjohnthomasx | where's "sources.list"? | 08:05 |
| Starnestommy | xjohnthomasx: in /etc/apt/ | 08:05 |
| Thkaal | Alright, can someone tell me how to load up my desktop so I can get the right drivers installed? | 08:05 |
| unop__ | xjohnthomasx, you could try reinstalling all the gnome components -- sudo apt-get install --reinstall $(dpkg -l | grep -iE "gnome|gtk" | cut -c 3-30) | 08:05 |
| murlidhar | icesword, it shows me a list of printer's driver but there i can't find this printer's name. | 08:05 |
| unop__ | xjohnthomasx, /etc/apt/sources.list | 08:05 |
| brent113 | thkaal:ctrl-alt-backspace will restart x, ctrl-alt-f7 to switch to graphical, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop if it's not installed | 08:06 |
| brent113 | thkaal: what specific issue are you having? | 08:06 |
| icesword | murlidhar, you said your printer is recognized? | 08:06 |
| Thkaal | Hi all, got a question here. I have a geforce2 mx 400 video card that won't let me load up ubuntu. it just goes black from the usplash screen and then dies.

Looking in the forums, it says I need to install the nvidia-glx restricted driver on 7.04. how do i do that from the recovery prompt? | 08:06 |
| Thkaal | that one | 08:06 |

| xjohnthomasx | bazhang: here you go: http://pastebin.ca/952533 | 08:07 |
| murlidhar | icesword, it shows that i have CX2800 but it asks me for drivers | 08:07 |
| brent113 | thkaal: like i said earlier, do you have access to apt-get from wherever you're at? | 08:07 |
| Thkaal | i think so | 08:07 |
| g3istie | Could someone please help me with a "GRUB Hard disk error" during boot up? | 08:07 |
| Thkaal | sorry, i didn't see you ask that. | 08:07 |
| artenius | Thkaal: try sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx | 08:08 |
| brent113 | thkaal: sudo dpkg-reconfigure nvidia-glx-new | 08:08 |
| icesword | murlidhar, ohhh,ask you for drivers?what about you try other empson driver? | 08:08 |
| brent113 | nice thinking artenius :) | 08:08 |
| xjohnthomasx | bazhang: what do you think? you see? | 08:08 |
| artenius | brent113: I could be wrong | 08:09 |
| artenius | heh | 08:09 |
| murlidhar | icesword, u mean some other model of epson ? will it work? | 08:09 |
| CRINGO | how do you rename something? I can't remember. Is it with mv? | 08:09 |
| bazhang | xjohnthomasx: well artenius seems to have the right idea; did you install some themes of late? they might be causing this | 08:09 |
| musikgoat | CRINGO: yes | 08:09 |
| musikgoat | mv oldname newname | 08:10 |
| xjohnthomasx | artenius: dont believe i installed any themes of late.. though i would eventually like to try that.. ha. | 08:10 |
| bazhang | mv is move | 08:10 |
| CRINGO | you dont' have to use any special arguments | 08:10 |
| xjohnthomasx | bazhang: no new themes, i dont think | 08:10 |
| CRINGO | okay | 08:10 |
| rym | Is there a possibility to restrict flash from occupying my sound device ? | 08:10 |
| xjohnthomasx | still have the original "human" | 08:10 |
| rym | *way | 08:10 |
| Thkaal | okay, going to test that brett, thanks. | 08:10 |
| yowshi | hmmm ctrl+L is supposed to make virtualbox "seemless" with my ubuntu desktop. but i dont find this the case. it seems to just make it glitch out and show part of a ubuntu thing and part of the windows thing. anyone able to help me with this? | 08:10 |
| g3istie | after install, without any errors, i get a "GRUB Hard Disk Error" does anyone know what this means? It is a relativly hold HDD will this matter/be the reason? | 08:10 |
| brent113 | yowshi: sure, i'm running vbox right now :) | 08:10 |
| bazhang | yowshi: ubuntu on windows? | 08:10 |
| murlidhar | icesword, http://www.picturewizard.com/pic.asp?u=13266C2/0/Screenshot-NewPrinter.png | 08:10 |
| CRINGO | oh, what if i'm renaming a directory? | 08:11 |
| yowshi | windows on ubuntu | 08:11 |
| CRINGO | and I'm in the directory? | 08:11 |
| artenius | xjohnthomasx: out of curiosity have you tried rebooting? | 08:11 |
| yowshi | i would never boot into windows | 08:11 |
| xjohnthomasx | artenius: yes | 08:11 |
| CRINGO | can i say mv . newname? | 08:11 |
| artenius | hmm | 08:11 |
| yowshi | vista ruined it for me :( | 08:11 |
| musikgoat | CRINGO: yes | 08:11 |
| brent113 | yowshi: and it works for me perfectly, what's it do for you | 08:11 |
| CRINGO | okay | 08:11 |
| unop | CRINGO, you cant rename something you are currently in | 08:11 |
| CRINGO | oh | 08:11 |
| CRINGO | :/ | 08:11 |
| musikgoat | CRINGO: mv oldfoldername/ newfoldername/ | 08:11 |
| artenius | xjohnthomasx: and when you click applications does a box still come up? just empty? | 08:11 |
| musikgoat | CRINGO: mv oldfoldername/ newfoldername | 08:11 |
| CRINGO | okay | 08:11 |
| yowshi | well for me is removed the entire bottom panel and most of the top and then imposes one of my open ubuntu folders onto the windows desktop | 08:11 |
| xjohnthomasx | artenius: it highlights, and there appears a tiny square, but no real drop down menu | 08:12 |
| unop | CRINGO, you'll need -- cd .. first | 08:12 |
| murlidhar | icesword, and then when i press forward it shows me a list of all epson printer except the required one. | 08:12 |
| icesword | murlidhar, when i once visit epson site,i remember they offer linux drivers,i am not sure | 08:12 |
| J-_ | How can I add a CUPS user with admin privs that won't be a security risk with no GUI? | 08:12 |
| CRINGO | yeah, i just cd .. | 08:12 |
| brent113 | yowshi: I'm not sure why it would do that. are you running any programs that might cause that? | 08:12 |
| yowshi | brent113: it happens to pop up what ever window i last used before switching to the windows virtual machine ontop of the windows desktop | 08:13 |
| artenius | xjohnthomasx: that is very odd | 08:13 |
| minion_ | hey anyone got a few secs, need some info about running aps with term | 08:13 |
| yowshi | brent113: i dont think so | 08:13 |
| xjohnthomasx | artenius: yes | 08:13 |
| murlidhar | icesword, i didn't see any . moreover it they give it on site . then they would surely included it in the cd given along with macosx and windows drivers | 08:13 |
| CRINGO | thanks musikgoat, unop | 08:13 |
| artenius | xjohnthomasx: did it ever work right? I assume so | 08:13 |
| brent113 | yowshi: | 08:13 |
| xjohnthomasx | artenius: yes | 08:13 |

| artenius | xjohnthomasx: I could, yes, but I'm not sure I'm skilled enough to solve your problem | 08:15 |
| xjohnthomasx | artenius: whom do you recommend? | 08:15 |
| cq | where is the transition from the debian to ubuntu archives controlled, i.e. which debian packages make it over and which don't? | 08:15 |
| brent113 | yowshi: sorry, hit a wrong key. From what you described it sounds like the intended behavior. can I get some clarification on exactly what you don't think it should be doing? | 08:15 |
| artenius | xjohnthomasx: are you able to atleast see Add/Remove ? | 08:15 |
| xjohnthomasx | artenius: where? | 08:15 |
| unop | xjohnthomasx, did you try my suggestion of reinstalling all of the gnome components? | 08:15 |
| bazhang | cq the developer level (not here) | 08:15 |
| xjohnthomasx | unop: what do you mean | 08:15 |
| unop | xjohnthomasx, run this command from a terminal -- sudo apt-get install --reinstall $(dpkg -l | grep -iE "gnome|gtk" | cut -c 3-30) | 08:16 |
| yowshi | brent113: hmmm i dont exactly know but i cant use the windows desktop like this, i didnt think it was meant to disable that | 08:16 |
| yowshi | brent113: if i click on the window it pulls me out of the virtualbox and into ubuntu's desktop proper | 08:17 |
| brent113 | yowshi: when it acts like that, if you press host key+ home, does that fix it? | 08:17 |
| icesword | murlidhar, total name of it,model is cx2800? | 08:17 |
| yowshi | brent113: yes it does | 08:17 |
| xjohnthomasx | unop: couldn't find package.. gnome..-en-bas.. ? | 08:17 |
| murlidhar | icesword, epson stylus cx2800 | 08:18 |
| unop | xjohnthomasx, where are you seeing this? | 08:18 |
| brent113 | yowshi: that's a workaround I found, but I'm not sure how to permanatently fix it | 08:18 |
| xjohnthomasx | unop: in the command, where i ran your command | 08:18 |
| unop | !pastebin | xjohnthomasx | 08:18 |

| murlidhar | icesword, it is all-in-one printer. | 08:18 |
| unop | xjohnthomasx, can you pastebin that please? | 08:18 |
| xjohnthomasx | unop: pastebin what? | 08:18 |
| yowshi | hot key + home brings up a drop down menu | 08:18 |
| unop | xjohnthomasx, what you are seeing | 08:18 |
| artenius | unop: he's in revovery mode I think, will that still work there? | 08:19 |
| brent113 | that's true, and I think it resolves some focus issues too. if that's not the problem though please correct me | 08:19 |
| yowshi | hmmm now it works.... kind of | 08:20 |
| xjohnthomasx | unop: how do i copy from the xterm? it isnt letting me.. | 08:20 |
| unop | artenius, recovery mode? do you mean runlevel 1? or a failsafe gnome session? | 08:20 |
| artenius | control + C | 08:20 |
| xjohnthomasx | unop: i just ran your command, and it said ... couldnt find package language-pack-gnome-en-bas | 08:20 |
| artenius | unop: I'm not sure exactly what he's in, he just said recover mode | 08:20 |
| yowshi | i have no alt+tab with the virtual box in focus | 08:20 |
| unop | xjohnthomasx, select the text you want to copy -- open the firefox window -- and middle click | 08:20 |
| yowshi | nor do i have access to the cube effect either | 08:20 |
| xjohnthomasx | unop: have no middle button to click | 08:21 |
| yowshi | brent113: i had to hide both top and bottom ubuntu panels and the windows panel | 08:21 |
| unop | xjohnthomasx, ok -- then your middle click is both buttons at the same time (left click + right click) | 08:21 |

| yowshi | brent113: my mistake it didnt fix anything selecting seemless mode from the drop down menu just cut me out of seemless mode | 08:22 |
| brent113 | yowshi: when windows has focus, you cannot use the desktop effects. also, all commands such as alt+tab will be directed to the guest and not the host | 08:22 |
| |Cain_| | can someone tell me how to change the color of the kicker? (KDE{ | 08:22 |
| yowshi | brent113: yeah i kind of figured that was the case | 08:22 |
| CyberCod | !respin | 08:23 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about respin - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 08:23 |
| brent113 | yowshi: you should notice though that if you click something on the ubuntu desktop, then these features will work again | 08:23 |
| icesword | murlidhar, seems they don't offer any linux drivers,damn.then have wish for the universal driver for printer of linux | 08:23 |
| yowshi | brent113: i also thought just maybe seemless mode kind of was a work around for that | 08:23 |
| CyberCod | !:( | 08:23 |
| unop | artenius, it should work anywhere thats not runlevel 1 -- he seems to have a GUI up, it shouold work | 08:23 |
| xjohnthomasx | unop: you see? | 08:23 |
| icesword | murlidhar, i am sorry | 08:23 |
| unop | xjohnthomasx, pastebin.ca seems to be timing out on me -- can you use pastebin.com please? | 08:23 |
| artenius | seems like a repo isn't set correctly? | 08:23 |
| brent113 | yowshi: i see what you're saying. yes, in my opinion seemless mode is useless, it offers nothing fullscreen doesn't | 08:24 |
| murlidhar | icesword, well i guess then i have to continue using printing in windows only. | 08:24 |
| icesword | murlidhar, try it out,every way you can | 08:24 |
| unop | artenius, why do you suppose that is? | 08:24 |
| xjohnthomasx | unop: http://pastebin.com/m41fc4e0b | 08:24 |
| yowshi | brent113: i think of it as alot more then useless considering it doesnt do a damned thing for me | 08:25 |
| artenius | unop: I'm guessing that since it couldn't find the package | 08:25 |
| Possum234 | i would like to know if someone could describe a grub 17 error? | 08:25 |
| unop | artenius, but it used to work before -- so obviously the package was (and still probably is) installed | 08:25 |
| brent113 | yowshi: I usually stick to the fullscreen mode personally. remember virtualbox isn't the only virtualization software out there. vmware and one other that escapes me are possibilities worth trying too | 08:26 |
| unop | xjohnthomasx, try this -- sudo apt-get install --reinstall $(dpkg -l | grep -iE "gnome|gtk" | grep -vi "lang" | cut -c 3-30) | 08:26 |
| murlidhar | icesword, u might get interested in this. http://www.linuxprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Epson-CX2800 | 08:26 |
| yowshi | anyway onto something else thats bugging me. brent113 in vids i have seen of this each side of the cube had a window fullscreened but my cube doesnt seem to do this. i get three blamnk desktops instead | 08:26 |
| Starnestommy | Possum234: it can't read the filesystem | 08:26 |
| artenius | unop: I learn as much from helping people as I do from getting help, so I'm just trying to guess at this point. I have no clue why it wouldn't find the package | 08:26 |
| yowshi | brent113: meh virtualbox works i was just trying to get a little fancy with it :) | 08:26 |
| icesword | murlidhar, what you mean,there is a guide in there,right?just follow it? | 08:27 |
| artenius | makes no sense to me | 08:27 |
| xjohnthomasx | unop: it's asking for media in cd drive. i dont have media for cd drive. | 08:27 |
| artenius | ahh | 08:27 |
| brent113 | yowshi: in advanced desktop config doohickey, genreal settings, 3rd tab, what do your options read from top down (hor., vert., # desks) | 08:27 |
| artenius | xjohnthomasx: open /etc/apt/source.list and put a # before the line with the CD ifo | 08:27 |
| murlidhar | icesword, perhaps this driver can help but i don't know how to install it. | 08:27 |
| artenius | info* | 08:27 |
| yowshi | 4 2 4 | 08:27 |
| brent113 | yowshimine reads 2,2,1, try that | 08:28 |

| unop | artenius, yes, sure, me too - what i think is, the menu files for the particular menu might be corrupted/missing | 08:28 |
| brent113 | yowshi: change # desks to 1, and try 2x2 or 4x1 for hor. and vert sizes | 08:28 |
| bluebanana | Hello. I'm installing Xubuntu 8.04 beta on a computer. In final stage (Step 8 of 8), the advanced option has a check mark on the box beside "Install Boot Loader". The following line has "Device for Boot loader installation.". In the dropdown list, "(hd0)" is what was preselected. Is this correct? Or should I change from (hd0) to "/dev/sda" or to "dev/sda1". Please help! Thanks | 08:28 |
| yowshi | oh wait thats right 2x2 just gives me no cube and a coin flipping effect when i try to show the cube | 08:29 |

| bluebanana | Gnea: ok. Why then do they allow a user to remove the check by the checkbox "Install the boot loader"? | 08:30 |
| Possum234 | and i haven't even done anything with linux yet | 08:30 |
| yowshi | new question is on a 4x1 how do i spread windows about | 08:31 |
| TtyS2 | i see that my cpu is stucked on 99-100% constantly, but i dont find whats keeping it upp there, is this normall that it is this high?? | 08:31 |
| Gnea | bluebanana: depends on the setup - i fyou know what you're doing, you could uncheck it. best just to let it install :) | 08:31 |
| unop | bluebanana, because the windows bootloader can be used instead | 08:31 |
| bluebanana | unop: i see. | 08:31 |
| unop | bluebanana, or any other bootloader that you might have | 08:31 |
| bluebanana | so i'll set it to (hd0). | 08:31 |
| bazhang | yowshi: control alt down | 08:31 |
| brent113 | yowshi: you can drag windows onto different desktops, or ctrl+alt+shift [arrow] brings the window with you | 08:31 |
| yowshi | that gives me access to them so i can lopen stuff in the, but doesnt let me move an already opened window | 08:31 |
| xjohnthomasx | unop: im getting a lot of .. error.. coudlnt raise bookmark file.. etc.. then it keeps going. | 08:32 |
| Black_Magic | Can Someone Please Help me My Ubuntu install is giving false readings about Space left it says its 4gis (the real one) then a couple mins Later it says about 36.0KB | 08:32 |
| unop | xjohnthomasx, ok, let the command complete -- and then pastebin again | 08:32 |
| bluebanana | what happens if i change device from (hd0) to "/dev/sda"? | 08:32 |
| yowshi | brent113: thanks | 08:32 |
| bazhang | Black_Magic: how about deleting that dir? does that do it? | 08:32 |
| yowshi | voila | 08:32 |
| Black_Magic | bazhang: It was '/' | 08:33 |
| Starnestommy | bluebanana: grub probably wouldn't recognize it | 08:33 |
| yowshi | i never ever thought i would like something that was so purely eyecandy as much as i love this cube | 08:33 |
| unop | bluebanana, grub uses the (hdx) syntax -- it doesnt recognize linux devices | 08:33 |
| Black_Magic | bazhang: You really wont me to delete that..? | 08:33 |
| bazhang | Black_Magic: then do not delete ;] | 08:33 |
| xjohnthomasx | unop: this is a pretty darn long, crazy command.. what exactly is it doing? : ) | 08:33 |
| zachstar | What is the command to close down X server? | 08:33 |
| yowshi | and i have room for 2 more desktops | 08:33 |
| unop | xjohnthomasx, reinstalling everything pertaining to gnome | 08:33 |
| Black_Magic | zachstar: ctrl+alt+f2 | 08:33 |
| brent113 | yowshi: try the desktop wall too, it's pretty cool too | 08:33 |
| zachstar | Thank you | 08:33 |
| yowshi | bazhang: thanks for you help as well man | 08:33 |
| bluebanana | Starnestommy: unop, thanks. but why then are "/dev/sda" and "dev/sda1" in the dropdown list for "device for boot loader installation"? | 08:33 |
| bazhang | yowshi: try the scale plugin too | 08:34 |
| bazhang | its the expose effect | 08:34 |
| yowshi | brent113: is there a way to save the current setup to some kind of profile? so i can try different stuff without everything resetting on me? | 08:34 |
| Black_Magic | bazhang: Err so what you want me to do..? it may have to dow ith a Supybot... let me scan home again | 08:34 |
| Ademan | zachstar: to actually kill the xserver permanently or restart it? cause ctrl+alt+backspace will restart it, you'll wanna kill gdm if you want to get rid of Xorg totally ( sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop ) | 08:34 |
| nighter | someone have a good apt source for beryl? i use gutsy. Got problem to find a good apt source | 08:34 |
| nickrud | !beryl | nighter | 08:35 |
| ubotu | nighter: Beryl has been merged with Compiz to form Compiz-Fusion. New Beryl installs are discouraged. See also !compiz | 08:35 |
| unop | bluebanana, thats probably where grub installs itself -- but grub would then be configured to use (hdx) behind the scenes | 08:35 |
| icesword | murlidhar, it said there is no such a driver in their database,google it,then | 08:35 |
| unop | bluebanana, where are you seeing this? when installing ubuntu? | 08:35 |
| nighter | !compiz | 08:35 |
| brent113 | yowshi: sure, you can do this many ways. probably the easiest would be to create a new user or backup your ~/ (home directory) | 08:35 |
| bazhang | bluebanana: that is advanced right? and this is Hardy, so the channel you want is #ubuntu+1 thanks | 08:35 |
| ubotu | Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - help in #compiz-fusion | 08:35 |
| nighter | thanks | 08:35 |
| test01 | !compiz | 08:35 |
| artenius | xjohnthomasx: you're using Ubuntu 7.10? | 08:35 |
| bluebanana | unop: yes, when installing hardy xubuntu beta. I asked at ubuntu+1, but no one is helping. you are more helpful | 08:35 |
| xjohnthomasx | artenius: yes | 08:35 |
| Possum234 | I have a question. How do I fix grub 17 error? I have 2 hd's, one with Windows XP and one with Ubuntu. When I restarted my comp I recieved a grub 17 error. I am using 7.10 | 08:35 |
| Black_Magic | nickrud: Erm Could you help me i think my Supybot is triggering things that make the system think that it only has 36.0KB of Memory left.. | 08:35 |
| yowshi | bazhang: what exactly does this scale plugin do. the only thing i can currently do is shift+a;t+up | 08:35 |
| bazhang | yowshi: you mean the session | 08:35 |
| J-_ | Where is cupsd.conf located in 6.06? | 08:36 |
| nickrud | Black_Magic never messed with irc bots | 08:36 |
| unop | bluebanana, do you have windows installed too? are you trying to dual-boot? | 08:36 |
| yowshi | bazhang: i mean save my settings so i can load them up later once i decide which set of effects i like best | 08:36 |
| bluebanana | unop: no windows. actually, windows and everything on the hd has been wiped clean by xubuntu installer. | 08:36 |
| unop | !grub | Possum234 | 08:36 |
| ubotu | Possum234: 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 | 08:36 |
| bluebanana | i'm just having problems installing the xubuntu. | 08:36 |
| nickrud | Black_Magic and are you sure you only have that much left, you are accounting for the disk cache, right? | 08:36 |
| Black_Magic | nickrud: Well i get this from the bot it could just be reporting the error Anyway, here's the exception: IOError: [Errno 28] No space left on device | 08:36 |
| Black_Magic | Exception raised in log.exception. This is *really* | 08:36 |
| bluebanana | like it won't install onto the hard drive. | 08:37 |
| unop | bluebanana, in that case, it might be ok to use /dev/sda1 as the location for grub | 08:37 |
| bluebanana | if i remove the cd, and then reboot, the computer says "No operating system found." | 08:37 |
| brent113 | yowshi: in the settings manager, click preferences, then save a profile | 08:37 |
| Possum234 | but I didn't install Windows last. I installed Ubuntu after windows | 08:37 |
| bazhang | yowshi the scale effect spreads all open windows on that desktop out like the OS X expose effect. and you save that session in gnome | 08:37 |
| xjohnthomasx | unop: ok, it just finished.. now what should i do? should i retry things, or reboot? | 08:37 |
| nickrud | Black_Magic nope not a clue | 08:37 |
| bluebanana | unop: ok. i'll try /dev/sda if it does'nt work for now | 08:37 |
| zachstar | Who the heck told me Ctrl alt F2 was the X close key? | 08:37 |
| unop | xjohnthomasx, a reboot would be good, indeed -- but you might want to save a copy of this command's output if i have to review it later -- paste the contents into a text file or something | 08:38 |
| yowshi | bazhang: oh fudge now thats handy | 08:38 |
| Black_Magic | Ok then | 08:38 |
| nickrud | that was cruel | 08:38 |
| bazhang | zachstar: no one; they said control alt backspace did that | 08:38 |
| Black_Magic | nickrud: I have a WD Passport and Ubuntu doesnt notice if i plug it in. | 08:38 |
| harry_ | hi, I'm migrating an office to LTSP / Gutsy but having a bit of problem, could someone please help. The LTSP server is setup, I tried connecting from my laptop and it's ok. But when it's on my friend's office, none of their computer will show the GUI. The GUI seemed to be about to come up at first, but then all went back to the console. No /var/log/ldm.log, so I'm at loss. Any idea where else I can look for clues ? | 08:38 |
| brent113 | (1:33:33 AM) Black_Magic: zachstar: ctrl+alt+f2 | 08:38 |
| xjohnthomasx | unop: how do i copy it all? i dont think i can even see it all.. it was so many lines.. | 08:38 |
| nickrud | Black_Magic the syslog doesn't see it? | 08:38 |
| danny | what is .ace? | 08:38 |
| unop | xjohnthomasx, ok -- well, copy as much as you can see | 08:38 |
| nickrud | Black_Magic hm, why'd you tell him that? | 08:38 |
| === nobblynu is now known as sobblysu | ||
| zachstar | So just to be sure CTRL ALT backspace will CLOSE not restart X? | 08:39 |
| brent113 | NO | 08:39 |
| sbingner | zachstar, CTRL-ALT-BKSP will KILl X | 08:39 |
| nickrud | zachstar close and restart | 08:39 |
| brent113 | sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop closes x | 08:39 |
| sbingner | something else may well restart it | 08:39 |
| sbingner | but that has nothing to do with ctrl-alt-bksp | 08:39 |
| Black_Magic | nickrud: huh...? | 08:39 |
| yowshi | brent113: you were suggesting the wall? what all would go good with that? | 08:39 |
| xjohnthomasx | unop: i can't get it to scroll up while highlighting?? | 08:39 |
| nickrud | Black_Magic the clt-alt-f2 above. | 08:39 |
| === sobblysu is now known as chickbot | ||
| zachstar | brent why must one do such a command to close X? | 08:40 |
| Black_Magic | nickrud: Well CTRL+ALT+Backspace closes Xserver | 08:40 |
| nickrud | sbingner in the context of ubuntu, that's the end result. | 08:40 |
| brent113 | yowshi: the wall lets you slide in 2 dimensions, I find it easier to access the various desktops | 08:40 |
| bazhang | ctrl alt f7 gives it back zachstar | 08:40 |
| === Basil is now known as bakom | ||
| sbingner | X closes with ctrl-alt backspace... the daemon that is running to start X for logins, notices it was killed and starts it again. | 08:40 |
| nickrud | zachstar it's a quick way of shutting X down if it's runaway | 08:40 |
| brent113 | zachstar: that's simply the control script for gdm | 08:40 |
| brent113 | sbinger: ctrl alt bkspc does not close x | 08:40 |
| Black_Magic | nickrud: No it doesnt also it doesnt get listed in /dev/ | 08:40 |
| unop | xjohnthomasx, what you could do is -- scroll the xterm window right upto the top -- start selecting and then drag the mouse-pointer towards the bottom .. it should scroll and select text at the same time | 08:41 |
| sbingner | brent113, it does. | 08:41 |
| brent113 | sbigner: no, it's equivalent to sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart | 08:41 |
| sbingner | brent113, check the PID of your X server before and after. it will be different | 08:41 |
| nickrud | Black_Magic there's going to be something in syslog. tail -f /var/log/syslog , and plug in the device | 08:41 |
| sbingner | brent113, not even close | 08:41 |
| zachstar | Just to understand here I am having a massive issue where a Compiled Mesa 3D has taken over my config file and using the ubuntu drivers method is not reseting it back to the card | 08:41 |
| bazhang | sbingner: restarts it different from dropping to a virtual term | 08:41 |
| yowshi | desktop wall doesnt wanna stay active | 08:41 |
| sbingner | brent113, what you said will restart gdm | 08:41 |
| brent113 | and so does ctrl alt backspace | 08:42 |
| zachstar | So I went to the Nvidia site and got their installer but it says it has to have X CLOSED | 08:42 |
| nickrud | sbingner and since gdm is running in X ... | 08:42 |
| sbingner | omg, this is linux not windows... it would be nice if you guys understood a little of the mechanics behind the scenes if you feel you need to correct me | 08:42 |
| brent113 | zachstar: use the /etc/init.d/gdm stop, that's what you want | 08:42 |
| zachstar | ok will do | 08:42 |
| bazhang | sbingner: well it is linux during a full moon ;] | 08:42 |
| nickrud | oh. nvidia install. Context is everything :) | 08:43 |
| sbingner | baz, lol | 08:43 |
| zachstar | ya | 08:43 |
| CyberCod | I tend to use envy for the nvidia installs | 08:43 |
| CyberCod | much easier | 08:43 |
| zachstar | Im about to do this command is there anything else I need to know? | 08:43 |
| bazhang | CyberCod: no! | 08:43 |
| CyberCod | no? | 08:43 |
| unop | brent113, CTRL+ALT+Backspace is useful for when you might not have a display manager running -- i.e. you dont run the GDM (or KDM or whatever) and launched X via startx .. its definitely not the same as restarting the display manager | 08:43 |
| brent113 | zachstar: use the /etc/init.d/gdm start to start it | 08:43 |
| CyberCod | is it bad now? | 08:43 |
| nickrud | zachstar sudo invoke-rc.d gdm start to get it back | 08:43 |
| brent113 | unop: thanks for the clarification, my mistake | 08:44 |
| bazhang | CyberCod: ask nickrud | 08:44 |
| zachstar | ok thanks but I will just restart | 08:44 |
| zachstar | when the install is done | 08:44 |
| zachstar | That will bring it back right? | 08:44 |
| CyberCod | nickrud: whassup with envy? I used to hear good things about it... I've never had a problem out of it | 08:44 |
| nickrud | CyberCod an unsuspecting user will have issues when he gets a kernel upgrade | 08:44 |
| === desti_T2 is now known as desti | ||
| CyberCod | yeah, but then you just run it again via command line | 08:45 |
| CyberCod | no biggie | 08:45 |
| nickrud | CyberCod unsuspecting, CyberCod . If you're comfortable, use it. But please don't recommend it to someone who's still low on the learning curve | 08:45 |
| CyberCod | true true | 08:45 |
| Black_Magic | nickrud: Nope t doesnt show anything just stuff about ath0 aka my network dvice but thats there as soon as i do tail -f | 08:45 |
| CyberCod | it SHOULD come with a warning label | 08:46 |
| CyberCod | it was scary the first time | 08:46 |
| bazhang | it does | 08:46 |
| nickrud | Black_Magic have you tried plugging in the device with the tail -f running? | 08:46 |
| Black_Magic | *device it | 08:46 |
| Black_Magic | nickrud: i just did that | 08:46 |
| nickrud | Black_Magic then if the kernel isn't even seeing it ... | 08:46 |
| CyberCod | my mother-in-law is pretty comfortable getting thru kernel upgrades with envy now | 08:46 |
| nickrud | heh. My boss would have a heart attack | 08:47 |
| Black_Magic | nickrud:It worked when i first got it about 3 days ago >.> something happend between there and now i dunno | 08:47 |

| Thkaal | Brent113: Remember me? | 08:48 |
| Black_Magic | nickrud:Err its not ntfs | 08:48 |
| brent113 | thkaal: that I do, how'd it go? | 08:48 |
| Black_Magic | nickrud: its formatted is fat32 | 08:48 |
| nickrud | Black_Magic then possibly it's broken. Or, the cable at the other end is loose. | 08:49 |
| Black_Magic | nickrud: windows can read it and other windows machines can read it | 08:49 |
| Black_Magic | nickrud: and backtrack sees it | 08:49 |
| nickrud | Black_Magic without any stuff from syslog, I'm clueless | 08:49 |
| Black_Magic | nickrud: also the blue light comes on and it makes noise also | 08:49 |
| Thkaal | well, lost connection four times, but finally got it installed. The black screen shows up right after the usplash. Now, if I do it in recovery, things go fine. And if I remove the card, things are fine. But I can't seem to get it to go just far enough for me to use the restricted devices activator | 08:49 |

| Odd-rationale | How do I find out my DNS ip address? | 09:08 |
| nickrud | Odd-rationale should be in /etc/resolv.conf | 09:09 |
| Odd-rationale | via cli | 09:09 |

| Thkaal | but it's a 1.2 ghz, with 383 mb ram, with geforece2 mx400 card. with card, it goes from usplash to blank screen. without card, just fine. but the card works in my other systems. | 09:09 |
| unop_ | Odd-rationale, cat /etc/resolv.conf | 09:09 |

| artenius | rym: try /join #winehq | 09:11 |
| rym | allright, ty | 09:11 |
| Thkaal | nickrud: okay, trying that. | 09:12 |
| nickrud | Thkaal actually, try sudo dpkg-reconfigure -pcritical xserver-xorg , that will make that change to nv for you, and set up some other stuff for compatibility. | 09:13 |

| ProbeDot | unop exact way? | 09:14 |
| Thkaal | pcritical? | 09:14 |
| ProbeDot | ya | 09:14 |
| ProbeDot | unop i meant like with an example? | 09:15 |
| nickrud | Thkaal yes, it resets the driver to what ubuntu/X thinks is best for your card. The mx400 is a well known, tested card | 09:15 |
| nickrud | hmm | 09:15 |
| nickrud | ProbeDot that was an example, just substitute your file name for file in that line | 09:16 |
| ProbeDot | nickrud and it will be have duplicates deleted? | 09:16 |
| unop_ | ProbeDot, echo -e "foo\nbar\nfoo\nquuz\nbar" | perl -nle 'print unless $seen{$_}++' | 09:16 |

| unop_ | nickrud, it works no? :) | 09:17 |
| nickrud | I'll take your word for it. Perl is an abomination unto humans :) | 09:17 |
| unop_ | ProbeDot, put whatever you want there -- cat file | perl ... | 09:17 |

| artenius | chuy_max: /join #ubuntu+1 | 09:18 |
| ProbeDot | nickrud if there are sentences on each line instead of words. then what will this do. cat /home/a.txt | sort | uniq ? | 09:18 |
| unop__ | ProbeDot, as long as the sentences match exactly yes | 09:18 |
| chuy_max | oks nickrud, :D | 09:18 |
| nickrud | ProbeDot remove duplicate lines I believe | 09:18 |
| ProbeDot | nickrud hm. only the exact maching duplicate lines? | 09:19 |
| unop__ | ProbeDot, the only problem is that the output will be sorted -- something you might not want -- use the perl example if not | 09:19 |
| === Ghoster is now known as xoRock | ||
| ProbeDot | unop_ sorted.. what problem will it give | 09:20 |
| nickrud | ProbeDot unop_ is the real sysadmin here, I ask him about stuff like this | 09:20 |
| Thkaal | nickrud: booting now. | 09:20 |
| Odd-rationale | How do I remove a DNS from the list in /etc/resolve.conf ? | 09:20 |
| nickrud | ProbeDot that would depend on your use case, you would know the answer to that | 09:20 |
| unop__ | ProbeDot, echo -e "foo\nbar\nfoo\nquuz\nbar" | sort | uniq -- will give you "bar foo quuz" instead of "foo bar quuz" .. | 09:21 |
| nickrud | Odd-rationale it's normally placed there by your dhcp | 09:21 |
| brent113 | unop, can I get some clarification on the differences between ctrl+alt+backspace and the gdm stop/restart scripts? | 09:21 |
| Thkaal | nickrud: Nice blue screen that says, "failed to start the x server" | 09:21 |
| unop__ | brent113, sure | 09:21 |
| Odd-rationale | nickrud: Is there a way to remove one of them? | 09:21 |
| ProbeDot | unop_ nickrud ic. but something tell me i should not go with echo thing. shoud i? | 09:22 |
| ProbeDot | unop_ nickrud this will not be sorted? 1. helo how are you 2. helo how @are you (both lines will be untouched)? | 09:22 |
| unop__ | ProbeDot, they dont match exactly - therefore they will pass through untouched | 09:22 |
| ProbeDot | unop_ thanks ! | 09:23 |
| nickrud | Thkaal you sure it's an mx400? The nv driver is supposed to support that. Hm. this time, do sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg , it should ask you for a driver and resolution. Pick vesa as the driver, and a resolution you are certain the monitor can handle | 09:23 |
| unop__ | brent113, did you want me to explain? or were you going to ask some questions? | 09:23 |
| nickrud | ProbeDot they would be sorted if you used sort, but neither would be deleted | 09:23 |
| Thkaal | and yes i'm certain, i did a part check before i went looking for fixes | 09:23 |
| ProbeDot | unop_ nickrud thanks | 09:24 |
| brent113 | unop, oh sorry. yes, from earlier I still had a few lingering confusions I wanted to iron out. 1) how do you stop x (properly), and is that different from the /etc/init.d/gdm stop, and how is all that different from the ctrl+alt+backspace hotkey | 09:24 |
| nickrud | Thkaal ok. Just I don't remember anyone ever having issues with one. lspci | grep -i vga will tell you for sure | 09:24 |
| ProbeDot | nickrud unop_ i have another small txt files. each line with one word. how do i delete the words in a.txt that match with words in the small file b.txt ? | 09:25 |
| [hardy]ogre | im setting up kttsd for a blind friend and I have festival installed. when I try to add "talker" it doesnt appear to go to the right directory. any suggestions? | 09:26 |
| Yancho | how much normally does an upgrade of ubuntu need free space pls? | 09:26 |
| unop__ | brent113, the CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE combination is hardcoded into X/Xorg -- this is so that you can exit the current X session if you dont have a button or menu entry that can do this -- e.g. some esoteric window manager like fluxbox/openbox -- the gdm script control the daemon, if you stop the daemon -- any processes it has spawned will also stop -- which is why you are returned to the GDM when you CTRL+ALT+BS under gnome | 09:27 |
| Thkaal | nickrud: I can't do anything with the card in the slot. Well, I can go to recovery, but that's it. | 09:27 |
| === SpEcTr0 is now known as Estimo | ||
| nickrud | Thkaal ah, you have onboard!!! | 09:27 |
| Pirate_Hunter | where cna i download the alpha/beta version of the next ubuntu? | 09:27 |
| brent113 | unop__: so fundamentally to stop x you should use the control script? | 09:27 |
| ani1 | !hardy > Pirate_Hunter | 09:28 |
| Thkaal | nickrud: um...yeah. | 09:28 |
| nickrud | Thkaal in your bios, disable the onboard. | 09:28 |
| Thkaal | nickrud: can't find it. i thought of that first. | 09:28 |
| Pirate_Hunter | ani1: nothing popped up | 09:28 |
| nickrud | oh, that sucks. | 09:28 |
| ani1 | Pirate_Hunter: read the topic and join #ubuntu+1 | 09:28 |
| ProbeDot | i have another small txt files. each line with one word. how do i delete the words in a.txt that match with words in the small file b.txt ? | 09:29 |
| unop__ | brent113, though it appears that CTRL+ALT+BS and "/etc/init.d/?dm restart" do the same thing under gnome -- they dont actually -- one stops the gnome session, another restarts the display manager, but both take you to the GDM screen | 09:29 |
| Pirate_Hunter | ani1: yeah the bot opened separately | 09:29 |
| brent113 | unop: so how do you stop x then | 09:29 |
| brent113 | do you use the control script? | 09:30 |
| unop__ | brent113, it depends on how you want to stop X -- if you stop X via the key combination -- GDM will see that the process it spawned exited, and will take control and take you to the login screen -- if you stop the GDM, you are taken to a virtual terminal | 09:30 |
| nickrud | brent113 to completely stop X (including the gdm login screen) yes, use the control script. | 09:30 |
| Thkaal | nickrud: oh, and now.... i can't get any image. i can login, but after usplash, even without card, screen is blank. but i can log in and get the sounds and everythign. and the ctrl-alt-backspace and ctrl-alt-f7 don't work | 09:31 |
| unop__ | brent113, it depends what i am doing -- if my gnome session failed and the menus werent working -- i'd use the key combo .. if i wanted to make changes to how the GDM/gnome behaved .. i'd stop the GDM using the control script | 09:31 |
| brent113 | unop: so which program runs first. x runs gdm within it, correct? | 09:32 |
| nickrud | Thkaal with vesa as the driver? I'd bet if you hooked up a monitor to the onboard, you'd see the desktop | 09:32 |
| Thkaal | i couldn't get to change it to vesa | 09:33 |
| Thkaal | um....it WAS to the onboard | 09:33 |
| unop__ | brent113, errm .. i'd say the GDM invokes X for its functions and the GDM needs X .. so i'd say they cohabit | 09:33 |
| bullgard4 | unop__: Why did /etc/passwd choose the identifier 'messagebus' and not 'dbus'? | 09:33 |
| nickrud | Thkaal In your shoes I'd check for arguing video output | 09:34 |
| unop__ | bullgard4, i'd suppose its because you could use another messagebus daemon thats not dbus -- then you dont have to create another user for that service | 09:34 |
| lesshaste | what's the easiest way to make flash animations in linux? | 09:34 |
| brent113 | unop: thanks for sticking with me here. So gdm executes x for its functions, which is why the gdm control script will shut down x completely. likewise, startx is dependent on gdm, so it will execute gdm. Is this a correct statement? | 09:34 |
| bullgard4 | unop__: Ok. thank you. | 09:35 |
| Thkaal | nickrud: shoes? I'm a newb | 09:35 |
| unop__ | brent113, startx doesnt need the GDM -- startx starts a new X session from the command line, so your logon screen here is technically the shell you use | 09:35 |
| ani1 | ProbeDot: i think this is what your looking for http://www.unix.com/shell-programming-scripting/10416-delete-lines-file2-beginning-w-file1.html | 09:35 |
| nickrud | Thkaal if you have two monitors, hook up to both outputs. | 09:35 |
| nickrud | looks like ani1 has the google fu | 09:36 |
| unop__ | brent113, i'd say this -- the GDM like startx starts a new X session -- the difference is the GDM is a GUI, startx is a cli | 09:36 |
| Thkaal | well, that'll take me about thirty minutes. so we'll go with one monitor | 09:37 |
| brent113 | unop: alright, thanks for the clarification. one last. what would be a situation when you would need to use /etc/init.d/?dm restart? I can't think of one. It seems either you need to restart x with the hotkey or just stop ?dm. | 09:37 |
| Thkaal | i'll try a few other things and see what happens. | 09:37 |
| nickrud | Thkaal then switch outputs, and reboot. See what happens | 09:37 |
| Thkaal | that's what i do every time i try something. | 09:38 |
| unop__ | brent113, i'd use /etc/init.d/?dm restart after having made changes to something like xorg.conf | 09:38 |
| broken | What package contains the libz headers? | 09:38 |
| brent113 | unop, and why wouldn't ctrl+alt+backspace work for that? | 09:38 |
| unop__ | brent113, although i suspect using the key combo would achieve the same effect | 09:38 |
| brent113 | unop: i'm about 99% there, enough to explain it to someone I think, just have to mull it over I guess | 09:39 |
| brent113 | thanks so much for the help | 09:39 |
| nickrud | unop__ logging out is sufficient, since gdm starts a fresh X session for itself each time a child X process exits, it will see the new xorg.conf | 09:39 |
| unop__ | brent113, i'm not sure if the xorg.conf is reread once you logout from your X session -- therefore the GDM that appears then might not have all the xorg.conf directives loaded | 09:39 |
| unop__ | brent113, it's a guess, i'm not sure on that | 09:40 |
| unop__ | nickrud, makes sense | 09:40 |
| ProbeDot | ani1 thx | 09:40 |
| nickrud | unop__ for a while it didn't, then it started doing so | 09:40 |
| unop__ | brent113, see nickruds last statement -- restarting the GDM would work no matter which version of it you used .. logging out might not guarantee that | 09:41 |

"This package is a meta-package that, when installed, gaurantees that you have at least one of the four server-side versions of the PHP5 interpreter installed. Removing this package won't remove PHP5 from your system, however it may remove other packages that depend on this one." | 10:43 |

| unop__ | wizo, well, as the description also says "This package is a meta-package that, when installed, guarantees that you have at least one of the four server-side versions of the PHP5 interpreter" -- meaning, it depends on the real php packages, so when installed, it pulls them in -- but the real php packages dont depend on it, so when you remove it, they remain behind | 10:53 |

| wizo | i'm getting kinda confused | 10:55 |
| unop__ | amerio, i think you need to ask the guys in #ubuntu+1 -- hardy is still prerelease and has bugs for sure | 10:55 |

| foldart | !info freevo | 10:57 |
| ubotu | Package freevo does not exist in gutsy | 10:57 |
| unop__ | wizo, the former is the actual interpreter -- the second is the module that gets installs mod_php (php in the apache environment to give data/state persistence across multiple runs of the interpreter) | 10:57 |
| danand | XiXaQ - or not use NVidia's driver - switch to nv driver.... think there were some suggestions on the net ie workarounds. Check through your kern.logs first to see if your getting similar problems | 10:57 |
| Chad | since alsa doesn't allow xmms and games to access it at once | 10:57 |
| foldart | msingh: hm, not an ubuntu package, so you're probably right. Better to report it to the package provider. | 10:57 |
| wizo | unop__: oh, so i need to install both? so the mod actually calls the interpreter? | 10:57 |
| msingh | foldart, no idea who he is | 10:58 |
| unop__ | wizo, you dont need both -- you can run use php in CGI/ISAPI scripts -- or you can get apache to handle requests and content via a special php configuration | 10:59 |
| foldart | msingh: 'apt-cache show freevo | grep Maintainer' (guessing freevo is the package name) | 10:59 |
| XiXaQ | danand, yes, that might be a solution if only I could get a decent resolution. I've tried and tried again, but I cannot get higher resolution than 800x600. | 10:59 |
| wizo | unop__: hmm alright, i'll play around with it, thanks! | 11:00 |

| fluxy | Hello people - I heard reiserfs / jfs / xfs could be 'better' than ext3. Anyone got any experiece/an opinion regarding this? | 11:14 |
| erUSUL | !info ffmpeg > Ardin | 11:14 |
| bazhang | boebi: did you check the md5 sum? perhaps the iso was corrupted; also might either try burning at a lower speed or the alternate installer--would this be for a dual boot or ubuntu only? | 11:15 |
| Ardin | erUSUL: preferably something that already has the work done in it.. i know someones had to have written one already | 11:15 |
| danand | boebi - have you tried partitioning and creating the filesystems for ubuntu with gparted on the live cd, then trying the install? | 11:15 |
| erUSUL | fluxy: i use jfs it is faster but a little bit less robust on power outage | 11:15 |
| ani1 | linggz: http://www.google.com/linuxrepositories/ | 11:15 |
| boebi | baz: dual boot, and the md5 is alright | 11:15 |
| boebi | and i have tried creating the partition in the installation process | 11:16 |
| vincen1 | Allright, here comes a question: I'm unable to succesfully install new fonts under 8.04 BETA. I can install the fonts through 'sudo nautilus' and drag them to the fonts folder. I have also changed the permissions, so that ROOT can acces them. In 7.10, that worked fine. But now it doesn't. Does anybody have a clue? | 11:16 |

| NaViBorN | Hi people! | 11:18 |
| danand | boebi - that is odd; try creating partitions and filesystems using gparted on the live cd first. Then install. That way you can just point to the partitions you want to use in the installation setup | 11:18 |
| fluxy | hello NaviborN | 11:18 |
| === Diamond is now known as Di | ||
| boebi | dan: i sortoff already tried that, by creating the partitions using disk director, a program in windows | 11:19 |

Can somedoby please take a look at it and tell me what I did wrong ? | 11:27 |
| Hobbsee | NaViBorN: if you want to stay here, you need to ask good questions, and not spam the channel with characters. | 11:27 |
| jin | fluxy: if there is another solution to do that other then creating multiple application menus, will do too :-) | 11:28 |

| fushorts | cew27, may want to take it into a pm it is sort of lengthy even though it is only a few commands dont wan to spam the cahnnel with commands | 12:20 |
| Sludge321 | Frogzoo: Firefox 3 b3 is available in the "backports" repository. You can enable this from "Software Sources" in the Administration menu. | 12:21 |
| Sludge321 | Frogzoo: You will probably want to disable the backports repository once you have installed Firefox 3. | 12:21 |
| jin | Sludge321: why should a user disable the backport repo? | 12:24 |
| Sludge321 | jin: If they just want to install Firefox 3, then keeping the backport repo enabled would also upgrade a load of other software. | 12:24 |
| Sludge321 | jin: Which may not be as stable / supported - and could confuse the user. | 12:24 |
| jin | Sludge321: if you disable it, wouldn't the depencies break after that? | 12:25 |
| Sludge321 | jin: If the user enables it only to install Firefox 3, then this will be fine (as long as no other software is upgraded). The backports repository is disabled by default, and updates in it are unsupported. | 12:26 |

| zth | mad_goldfish: yes it does show, but it cant be entered through the link. it's not in /media so where do i find it u think? | 13:19 |
| mad_goldfish | zth, does it turn up in /media when you're using Gnome? If show, what does it show as? | 13:21 |
| ilh700 | hi everybody | 13:24 |
| Squa7ch | hi | 13:24 |
| ilh700 | i have a question: how can i boot ubuntu to don't load the auto-resizing geometry? thanks | 13:24 |
| artti | I'm searching help how to get x server version to the latest available version. | 13:25 |
| jrib | artti: why? | 13:25 |
| zth | mad_goldfish: yes, it does show up when i use gnome. It shows as a folder called Walhalla | 13:25 |
| jrib | !timebasedreleases > artti (read the private message from ubotu) | 13:25 |
| gnuskool | cory_,seems to me you may have overwritten your partition, but to be dubbly sure get partition magic or other 'pro' software to see if the partition is lurking there, try use live cds cause the more you write to the disk, the less chances you have of recovering stuff, then get a cd of power data recovery 4 or similiar | 13:26 |
| artti | Because i can't install matrox g200 video card. | 13:26 |
| desna | vick | 13:26 |
| ilh700 | artti i have a matrox g200 millennium and it works fine with vesa | 13:27 |
| mad_goldfish | Can you mount that folder from the command line in E? | 13:27 |
| artti | During install it says: Can't find the X Server version you are currently running (1.3.0) in | 13:27 |
| artti | this installers database, so for your convenience, I'll try to install | 13:27 |
| artti | the latest available version (7.1.0) onto your system. | 13:27 |
| zth | mad_goldfish: solved it, started metacity and then it worked through checking Computer in Nautilus. thank you very much for your help, now i will go see Sopranos xD | 13:27 |
| artti | ilh700, vesa is general, and i can't then right resolution. | 13:27 |
| Curtman | I tried upgrading to Hardy beta from Gutsy, and now when I try to log in with Gnome it just hangs. If I run 'strace gnome-session' it seems to be hanging while reading from the Gnome keyring socket. | 13:27 |
| Curtman | Anyone know why? | 13:27 |
| jrib | !hardy | Curtman | 13:28 |
| ubotu | Curtman: 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 BETA SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu | 13:28 |

| Mushrooms | has anyone had problems with youtube, firefox and ubuntu 7.10? as soon as i install the gnash plugin, it hangs my system forcing me to do an alt-sysrq-reisub | 13:35 |
| Crusader_Tech | Hello All. New Linux user, and I've been running Ubuntu 7.10 in Virtualbox on Windows. I downloaded the 8.04 beta, but when I install it in it's own virtual machine, I cannot get any resolution higher than 800 x 600. Any thoughts? | 13:35 |
| jrib | artti: it's not really going to be straightforward for you to upgrade X on ubuntu. Ubuntu makes a stable release every 6 months and then freezes the repositories (with exceptions for things like security bugs). You should look to how you can get your card working on the current version of X imo and wait about a month for the release of hardy which should have a later version of X | 13:36 |
| finek | Crusader_Tech, try to install grapic drivers | 13:36 |
| jrib | Crusader_Tech: hardy support is in #ubuntu+1 | 13:36 |
| Crusader_Tech | Got it. thx all. | 13:36 |
| mnemo | jrib: i dont want to know how to unpack rar files, I want to know how to find the command that nautilus runs when I extract from GUI... this is because I want the binary name of the archieve manager.. | 13:38 |
| myth_ | i mean unrar x file.rar | 13:38 |
| myth_ | GUI sucks :) | 13:38 |
| Mushrooms | so i guess no one else has had the same problem here? >.< it does look like (from the bugs.launchpad.net) that i'm not the only one who's had this problem.... | 13:38 |
| jrib | mnemo: file-roller is the gui. unrar is probably what actually extracts it | 13:39 |
| mnemo | jrib: aha thanks, that's exactly what I wanted to know... | 13:39 |
| gnuskool | Mushrooms: mine works mint, bt with adobe flash, dunno bout gnash | 13:39 |

| rodrigo | jrib: =/ | 13:43 |
| gnuskool | Mushrooms: in terminal, sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 13:43 |

| ere4si | Mushrooms: I'll get you the link | 13:44 |
| asdfefn | nl | 13:44 |
| Mushrooms | gnuskool: :o is that all? i read in the bugs.launch.net that one had to go and download the .bz.tar file or something directly from adobe... | 13:44 |
| Mushrooms | oh dear, i'm so confused >_< | 13:45 |
| gnuskool | Mushrooms: try that | 13:45 |

| jrib | Mushrooms: if you get an error, do *not* follow the fix on that link you were just given, just tell us here | 13:46 |
| WAKD | Armedking_laptop - untar the source and do ./configure --help or read the README files that come with the source mate. | 13:47 |
| Mushrooms | O_O this sounds exactly like it, when i tried to install the plugin by clicking "install plugin" from firefox, it kept saying to me that it wasn't installed | 13:47 |
| Mushrooms | this is what i get: Download done. | 13:48 |

| wrez | hi can someone help me to setup ubuntu-desktop on a ubuntu server machine ? i only have root/ssh access... so i need to setup a vncserver aswell | 13:50 |
| gnuskool | Mushrooms: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4073291 i see what you mean te fix is there | 13:51 |
| WAKD | Armedking_laptop - In a terminal'modprobe ath_pci'tThen do lsmod |grep ath to make sure that worked. Also do 'dmesg |grep HAL' if you get nothing back, that's a good sign. If you get back something like HAL error 3 or error 13 or something else, that's not a good sign. | 13:52 |

| unop__ | wrez, you can install the ubuntu-desktop package and use the Xforwarding option of ssh to get the remote display locally | 13:53 |
| Mushrooms | jrib: I did that, but i'm not sure what to do with it, i chose to use "bash" and pasted it.. what do i do after that? | 13:53 |

| alanbshepard70 | Sometimes when I lose a wifi signal and my computer tries to reconnect everything freezes up. First the keyboard stops working then when I try to reboot or shut down after clicking the shut down icon the window never shows up and finally the only thing left working is the mouse though it can't be used for anything. It forces me to do a hard reset and I lose data. How can I investigate this problem? | 13:57 |
| jrib | jake2point0: deserve what? | 13:57 |
| jake2point0 | your bot didnt tell me anything at all | 13:57 |
| unop__ | wrez, i think you might be seeing the twm -- thats normal -- if you want gnome displayed in a VNC session, you'll need to configure your ~/.vnc/xstartup file -- see http://skullbox.net/vncserver.php | 13:58 |
| jrib | Mushrooms: k, go to System -> Administration -> Software Sources in your menu and enable "Recommended updates (gutsy-updates)" and "Important security updates (gutsy-security)" | 13:58 |

| amenado | alanbshepard70-> i can only confirm same events happens to mine if the system attempts to re-associate to the AP sometimes, not all the time just some time..specially if firefox is also attempting to connect to a remote site | 13:58 |
| unop__ | wrez, but beware of this setup tho -- you can only use the gnome session from one source -- the console or vnc -not both | 13:58 |
| Mushrooms | jrib: ok done, reloading the list now | 14:00 |
| alanbshepard70 | amenado: Sorry to say that I'm glad I'm not the only one having this issue. I'll see if there is a bug report for it. | 14:00 |

| commonidiot | is there way to remove one and only one package | 14:00 |
| WAKD | gnuskool joomla! | 14:00 |
| commonidiot | without removing related stuff too? | 14:00 |
| yowshi | grrr somehow my windows have begun maximizinv to take up the entire screens | 14:00 |
| jrib | commonidiot: be more specific | 14:00 |
| commonidiot | jrib, i want to remove nvidia-kernel-common package without also removing linux-generic and a host of other essential stuff without which i am screwed | 14:01 |
| Mushrooms | jrib: wow! magic it installed | 14:01 |
| gnuskool | WAKD: i tried installing joomla yest'day but when i click the php file to install, it just keeps opening new tabs, but im suspecting my php install, | 14:01 |
| amenado | alanbshepard70-> its related to i/o interrupt failure..and am not sure any software can handle that level of failure..when one attempts to establish connection with AP, the system does i/o interrupts and am not sure a driver can handle that if the i/o faults | 14:01 |
| gnuskool | WAKD: myphp loads just fine reads mysql, php --info shows the php packages are installed, how do i check a php install? | 14:02 |
| Schangin | hi | 14:02 |
| unop__ | commonidiot, what other stuff is being removed? | 14:02 |
| jrib | commonidiot: if nvidia-kernel-common package is a dependency of those other packages, then no (not in a straightforward way). Why do you want to? | 14:02 |
| Cew27 | hey people ! i need help i havew yellow caps on my compiz cube and i cant figure out how to get rid of them | 14:02 |
| Mushrooms | jrib, gnuskool: thanks for your help today, it is greatly appreciated | 14:03 |
| b47619 | should I use the alternate install cd? | 14:03 |
| commonidiot | UnFred, it removes restrictedw hich i need for wireless | 14:03 |
| yowshi | oh it is just this one window that is so maxxed | 14:03 |
| jrib | Cew27: try #compiz-fusion | 14:03 |
| unop__ | b47619, if you are confident enough using it -- if this is your first time installing linux, then its probably not a good idea | 14:04 |
| amenado | b47619-> whats the problem with the other cd? | 14:04 |
| b47619 | maybe it will fix the no /etc/gnome/config error and the system sumping me back at the login screen in a normal session? | 14:04 |
| b47619 | mentioned above | 14:04 |
| b47619 | this is not my first time installing linux | 14:04 |
| ompaul | commonidiot, so you need to hack the kernel all by your loansome | 14:04 |
| gnuskool | Mushrooms: no probs | 14:04 |
| commonidiot | uh | 14:05 |
| ompaul | commonidiot, or the answer no, you can't get there from here | 14:05 |
| commonidiot | this is extremely retarded of apt | 14:05 |
| unop__ | commonidiot, the only packages i see that depend on nvidia-kernel-common are the linux-restricted-modules -- which shouldnt really have anything to do with your wireless | 14:05 |
| commonidiot | unop__, my wireless drivers are obviously restricted ones | 14:05 |
| ompaul | unop__, depends on his cards :-( | 14:05 |
| unop__ | ompaul, hmm, didnt know that | 14:06 |
| amenado | yeah, someone mentioned nvidia network chips.. | 14:06 |
| commonidiot | i dont have a nvidia network chip | 14:06 |
| unop__ | commonidiot, i guess you are stuck with nvidia-kernel-common then -- why is it so itching that you have to have it removed? | 14:06 |
| b47619 | I have no /etc/config/gnome and also whenever I try to login to a normal session the xserver restarts (system stops outputting video and dumps me back at login) I also have 2 sound cards and 2 network cards 1 onboard of each (built in to mainboard) and also an add-on card for each if that could be a cause this issue is only present in 8.04 alpha and beta onboard ATI card restricted driver for it causes more issues... | 14:06 |
| commonidiot | unop__, because as soon as i reboot after installing and testing the nvidia drivers using the nvidia installer script ... it will no longer work | 14:07 |
| Cew27 | hey people ! i need help i havew yellow caps on my compiz cube and i cant figure out how to get rid of them | 14:07 |
| commonidiot | ie, X wont start, gives some module error | 14:07 |
| commonidiot | which goes away once nvidia-kernel-common is removed | 14:07 |

| scraga1 | opera's broke since the latest update, anyone know what the problem may be? | 14:08 |
| unop__ | Ashfire908, you could use cygwin for that -- but it's probably overkill -- i think the best way is via VNC | 14:08 |
| Ashfire908 | unop__, VNC is too slow. | 14:09 |

| ailean | is it easy to build ubuntu from source? | 14:18 |
| rsk | ailean: no | 14:18 |
| ompaul | ailean, not overly | 14:18 |
| amenado | ompaul-> if you run X -query serverhost thats insecure right? so you use that only locally on local lan? | 14:19 |
| ompaul | ailean, you can if you want | 14:19 |
| ailean | ok :) are there any advantages to doing it? | 14:19 |
| edu_ | 14:19 | |
| ompaul | amenado, correct | 14:19 |
| edu_ | You goodbye | 14:19 |
| rsk | ailean: not really. some 1% or soo speedup | 14:19 |
| ompaul | ailean, no | 14:19 |
| rsk | and it takes days if you haven't done it before | 14:19 |
| ompaul | ailean, you will not see that difference | 14:19 |
| ompaul | it will take days for a full desktop rebuild anyway | 14:19 |
| rsk | and if you want all packages optimized | 14:19 |
| rsk | heh then it will take more than a year | 14:19 |
| ailean | really? wow | 14:20 |
| rsk | to build over 20.000 packages | 14:20 |
| amenado | ailean-> maybe your advantage will be learning packaging process? | 14:20 |

| ompaul | ailean, not overly as only the modules needed are loaded | 14:21 |
| wrez | does anyone know how to restart vncserver ? | 14:21 |
| amenado | alterune-> i suggest perhaps going over same tutorial you used to load the codecs, and other libraries for a re-install of those? | 14:21 |
| ompaul | ailean, if you want to build it don't justify it to yourself just do it ;-) | 14:22 |

| amenado | ailean-> if you are interested in doing that kind of thing, maybe look into embedded linux? like ucLinux ? gets you to build everything | 14:22 |
| alterune | amenado, never used a tutorial to load a codec or anything, I did install XFCE and KDE before I saw this problem, though | 14:23 |

| goose_ | I have a memory card that will only mount as read-only; how can I format it so I can get it to mount as read/write? | 14:23 |
| amenado | ailean-> then ideal to learn is the embedded linux... | 14:23 |
| ailean | embedded linux, isn't that for mobile phones etc? | 14:24 |
| tarkus | im trying to think of a good community website to build, something to do with opensource and design. any recomendations? | 14:24 |
| amenado | ailean-> one of the apps is mobile phones, network appliances, sbc..etc | 14:24 |
| ailean | amenado, but i wouldn't get any real use from it other than learning about linux, true? | 14:25 |
| ailean | amenado, so i could set up a wee partition just to play with | 14:25 |
| amenado | ailean-> off course you'll get plenty of use, and some may even hire you for knowing how to build kernels...progression is to building drivers after | 14:25 |

| ailean | amenado, linux would be used in a lot of that | 14:30 |
| amenado | ailean okay..so you know they been using that for that special purpose..so you are in-tuned | 14:31 |
| ailean | hehe | 14:31 |
| ailean | amenado, right i'm convinced | 14:31 |

| Sancho- | yes jtravnick | 14:34 |
| roychri | When installing 7.10, on the prepare disk space screen, it asks you between guided - resize, guided - use entire disk, or manual. Which one should I choose if I want my /home partitions intact (not format, not resize) ? | 14:34 |
| roychri | I think Manual, but I want to make sure... | 14:35 |

| SubMiSSi0n | unop , when in grub i do the command 'find /boot/grub/stage1' i get Erroe 15: File not found | 15:03 |
| gregory | ConstyXIV: no | 15:03 |
| SubMiSSi0n | Error* | 15:03 |
| Sancho- | i just looked under system > administration and there printer | 15:03 |
| ConstyXIV | oh well | 15:03 |
| amenado | SubMiSSi0n-> means it can not find it..no stage 1.5 files | 15:03 |
| Sancho- | (i work in dutch, so administration can be wrong :p) | 15:03 |
| ConstyXIV | "nuke it from orbit, only way to be sure" | 15:03 |
| SubMiSSi0n | So how do i continue the GRUB install then amenado ? | 15:03 |
| ichat | ConstyXIV - why whould you want to use a linux live cd to try and hack-together a way to fix a win box | 15:04 |
| amenado | SubMiSSi0n-> do you have the rest installed and only trying to clean up with finishing touches of grub install? | 15:04 |
| ConstyXIV | ichat: well, if said windows machine up to it's eyes in malware, it'd be nice to have a clean, immune enviroment to work from | 15:05 |
| SubMiSSi0n | amenado, i installed a Slackware based distro, wich came with LILO, but LILO doesnt seem to work (at boot i get: Could not find operating system) so i want to get rid of LILO and install GRUB | 15:05 |
| kevin_ | ConstyXIV: you could probably boot from the live cd and install clamav | 15:05 |
| speps | hey guys how can substitute an audio track with another one on a video with ffmpeg? | 15:05 |
| SubMiSSi0n | amenado, i am now with a Ubuntu 7.04 LiveCD | 15:05 |
| amenado | SubMiSSi0n-> you have to have the correct files in /boot and /boot/grub | 15:06 |
| Skiessi | speps, you add or replace? | 15:06 |
| amenado | SubMiSSi0n-> i am not familiar with slackware's name for initrd and vmlinuz files | 15:06 |
| ichat | ConstyXIV: - windows have all sorts of crap closed protocols and stuff - verry not fun to work with from a linux box on... id not recoment it ... rather use a windows live cdrom instead - but thats a non ubuntu topic i feal :P | 15:06 |
| krisbo9000 | amenada, i checked a guide - but im not sure what my usb stick is in boot cood - i dont want to install grub to hd0 | 15:07 |
| krisbo9000 | boot code | 15:07 |
| amenado | SubMiSSi0n-> ubuntu uses those two plus System.map and config files in /boot | 15:07 |

| Sancho- | anyone here who has bluetooth working with an Acer laptop??? | 15:07 |
| amenado | krisbo9000-> read up on more tutorials regarding putting together a bootable usb disk, am not 100% in-tune with it | 15:08 |
| SubMiSSi0n | amenado, then how do i 'copy' them to the right location? I am a linux beginner , i need grub installed on my HD, do i have to run the command grub-install ? | 15:08 |
| krisbo9000 | ok thx | 15:08 |
| jmccarth_nl | join wiili | 15:08 |
| mohi | hi :) | 15:08 |
| SubMiSSi0n | amenado, i read that if i install GRUB, it simply overwrites LILO, thats why i dont bother the lilo install | 15:08 |
| amenado | SubMiSSi0n-> may i suggest using ubuntu liveCd to install? and not mixed and match slackware and ubuntu stuff? | 15:08 |
| gregory | Sancho-: just ask your specific error message question and people will answer if they know | 15:08 |
| SubMiSSi0n | amenado, well i am in the LiveCD ubuntu on my main computer now... | 15:09 |
| amenado | SubMiSSi0n-> yes you can install grub but i believe it looks for other files like i said, vmlinuz and initrd | 15:09 |
| Sancho- | gregory: thats the problem :p my bluetooth doesnt work on my Acer laptop :( | 15:09 |
| Sancho- | how can i make my bluetooth work on an Acer laptop, better? :D | 15:09 |
| Cew27 | hey people i really need help i am getting frustrated, compiz wont work, i reconsifureed my xorg and now i cant launch compiz | 15:09 |
| Shubbar | Sancho: i used drivers provided by canon, but still cannot print, it says Not connected | 15:09 |
| amenado | SubMiSSi0n-> then just go ahead and click the install to install ubuntu...well talk to you after what 45 minutes of installation? | 15:10 |
| Sancho- | did you check in system > admin > print? | 15:10 |
| SubMiSSi0n | amenado, the problem is that i really need that slackware based distro i have.. with GRUB | 15:10 |
| mohi | can anyone help me about this http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/5995/ | 15:10 |
| gregory | Sancho-: so its a problem of "ubuntu kernel does not recognize hardware". try to find a tutorial on how to investigate. its a routine of manual steps (which i dont know, sorry) | 15:10 |
| SubMiSSi0n | amenado, cant i just install grub with the LiveCD like in the guide here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351 | 15:10 |
| amenado | SubMiSSi0n-> the thing is this is not slackware support, am not familiar with slackware..so im not able to assist, maybe #slackware channel | 15:11 |
| maney | Hardy looks pretty good so far, but where the heck did they hide the control so that some accidental "gesture" doesn't switch workspaces on me? | 15:11 |
| === master_o1_master is now known as master_of_master | ||
| Sancho- | mmm gregory, i looked around on the net, but havent found anything yet :( | 15:11 |
| SubMiSSi0n | amenado, thx for the channel, but i think it haves nothing to do with slackware, because i dont have to do something with the slackware files, just installing GRUB | 15:11 |
| Jack_Sparrow | maney, they hid it in #Ubuntu+1 | 15:11 |
| amenado | SubMiSSi0n-> you can try that, but as you can read from the guide, the first thing is to find menu.lst which apparently you dont have? or the /boot/grub dont exist on yours? | 15:12 |
| maney | Jack_Sparrow: sorry, what does that mean? | 15:12 |
| amenado | SubMiSSi0n-> rather, its looking for /boot/grub/stage1.5 ? | 15:12 |
| Jack_Sparrow | maney, You need to ask questions about Hardy.. in the hardy room /j #Ubuntu+1 | 15:12 |
| amenado | man i cant type, with no coffee yet...brb | 15:12 |
| SubMiSSi0n | amenado, its looking for stage1 yes | 15:13 |
| SubMiSSi0n | But i dont need that, i have NO grub installed, i just want it to be isntalled from scratch | 15:13 |
| Jack_Sparrow | SubMiSSi0n, are you also running ubuntu dual boot or something | 15:13 |
| gregory | Sancho-: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=acer+laptop+bluetooth+on+gutsy&btnG=Search could help you, try to change acer to acer model xyz | 15:14 |
| unop | SubMiSSi0n, it might be easier just to use the grub-install command | 15:14 |
| SubMiSSi0n | Jack_Sparrow, i have 3 OS's , the linux one is a slackware based one | 15:14 |
| SubMiSSi0n | unop, ok, i will try it out | 15:14 |
| unop | SubMiSSi0n, i had to go afk, did you manage to get the output of that command i asked you to run | 15:14 |
| Sancho- | lets see gregory, thx in advance | 15:14 |
| SubMiSSi0n | unop, no i didnt manage.. | 15:14 |
| maney | Jack_Sparrow: oh, okay. I see the reference to the "alpha" release in that absurdly long topic now that I look for it. Since I was getting advice last evening based on someone else's Hardy setup I assumed it wasn't inappropriate here | 15:14 |
| unop | SubMiSSi0n, can you pastebin the output of this command -- cat /etc/fstab; sudo fdisk -l | 15:14 |
| Jack_Sparrow | SubMiSSi0n,If you are not running ubuntu please see the channel of the distro that you are running the differences are subtle but signigficant in therms of support | 15:15 |
| ompaul | Ashfire908, ok - for restricted drivers a restart in full needed, for xdmcp then gdm/kdm/xdm needs to be restarted, resolution changes can be done in different ways but that is beyond the scope of this tutorial ;-) my preferred method being sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 15:15 |
| Ashfire908 | ompaul: i restarted the comp and it's now responding to XDCMP, but it won't login | 15:15 |

| postman | urthmover - go to the terminal and run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 15:16 |
| ompaul | Ashfire908, suggest you test with a test user and a simpler password | 15:16 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Urthmover, 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 res. Use tab or enter to accept all other defaults | 15:16 |

| Jack_Sparrow | lesshaste, compiz --replace comes to mind | 15:20 |
| spudratic | is there a fire wall gui section on freenode | 15:20 |
| lesshaste | Jack_Sparrow: does that make it the default at startup? | 15:20 |
| amenado | spudratic-> here's what i would do, open the firewall, and run your shoutcast, see which ports are used, then make note of it, then enable those in your firewall and activate your firewall | 15:20 |
| Jack_Sparrow | lesshaste, It should be yes | 15:20 |
| ompaul | Ashfire908, hmm I don't have that issue with any of my boxes (running iit on a few different versions) | 15:20 |
| lesshaste | Jack_Sparrow: cool.. let me test that out | 15:20 |
| Jack_Sparrow | lesshaste, You are running gutsy correct? | 15:20 |

This is true in all applications that play audio, including all the TEST buttons in the Sound Preferences dialog in Gnome. I have a Asus F3T notebook, which uses ALC861VD Analog.

| lesshaste | Jack_Sparrow: I should install that? | 15:26 |
| funalien | I need your help! I can't configure any programs in Ubuntu, because /usr/bin/ld cannot be found. How can I solve this problem? | 15:26 |
| ompaul | xlrr, sudo apt-get install openssh-server << step one - two is >> make sure you have a hole punched though any routers to allow traffic hitting the router go to port 22 on the box you want to attach to | 15:26 |
| ompaul | or some other port | 15:26 |

| Jack_Sparrow | lesshaste, You should have already done that.. verify you have it installed | 15:26 |
| ompaul | xlrr, ok? | 15:27 |
| lesshaste | Jack_Sparrow: got it.. I should say it is pretty much all working now | 15:27 |
| unop_ | funalien, what does this command give you? ls -l /usr/bin/ld | 15:27 |
| Ashfire908 | ompaul: this thing is not working very good. | 15:27 |
| gregory | nevoeiro: it has status importance undecided. this means that it is not of high priority know. try to contact someone of kernel team politely and ask if they can shift priority (maybe they are just overloaded with issues in launchpad) | 15:27 |
| spudratic | amenado will do but I was on this last night for 4 hours lol reading and I still don't get it lol oh well let me look some more | 15:27 |
| Jesiegmann | nich0s, the partion numbers have changed and I can't fix it | 15:27 |

| ompaul | Ashfire908, hmm, it should be flying if they are on the same lan | 15:28 |
| amenado | spudratic-> things sometimes takes time to learn... | 15:28 |
| nevoeiro | gregory? having 30% of cpu running all the time is not considered important? ok...... | 15:28 |
| lesshaste | Jack_Sparrow: the only annoying thing is (EE) AIGLX error: dlsym for __driCreateNewScreen_20050727 failed (/usr/lib/dri/fglrx_dri.so: undefined symbol: __driCreateNewScreen_20050727) | 15:28 |
| lesshaste | (EE) AIGLX: reverting to software rendering | 15:28 |
| unop_ | funalien, so ld exists -- can you show us some text/output of a command that says /usr/bin/ld cannot be found | 15:28 |
| Ashfire908 | ompaul: it's like i'm running a beta or alpha or something | 15:28 |
| unop_ | ? | 15:28 |
| amenado | xlrr-> install openssh ... sudo apt-get install openssh-server | 15:28 |
| nich0s | Jesiegmann: Are you having errors editing it? What do you mean that you can't fix it? :P | 15:28 |
| ompaul | Ashfire908, of cygwin? | 15:28 |
| gregory | nevoeiro: no, there just was no decision yet | 15:28 |
| nich0s | Hey all! Being the slave to asthetics that I am, I was curious if there is anyway to install system transparency? | 15:29 |

| nevoeiro | ... | 15:29 |
| xlrr | amenado: oh ok let me try openssh-server | 15:29 |
| nevoeiro | thx gregory for the info | 15:29 |
| Ashfire908 | ompaul: i assume it's cygwin and not the comp i'm not connecting to | 15:29 |
| unop_ | funalien, use the pastebin to post that output | 15:29 |
| ompaul | xlrr, scroll back I told you this stuff already ;-) | 15:29 |
| spudratic | amenado yes I agree been fighting and just starting to win a little at a time I come across things that i need to know from time to time | 15:29 |
| funalien | unop, I know. One a minute | 15:30 |
| spudratic | ok later all Happy Easter | 15:30 |

| amenado | xlrr-> what is the ip address of your host? the remote host? | 15:31 |

| Aval0n | hey guys if I want to start a program on startup as a non-root user how would I go about doing that? | 15:31 |
| xlrr | amenado: Host is my own computer? | 15:31 |
| Jesiegmann | nich0s, i try to eplain the best i can, when grub is loading i get an error 17, i already new that my partion numbers have changed after i edit one of them, i just tried to change the numer to the number i thougth its right but nothing changed. now I#m running the system with a slackware cd but i cant excute grub, so i can't simly use the grub console | 15:31 |
| Jesiegmann | i hope you understand what i'm trying to say | 15:31 |
| unop_ | xlrr, if you want to use username@computername - you'll need to add an entry to /etc/resolv.conf for it | 15:31 |
| funalien | unop, http://pastebin.mozilla-russia.org/91065 | 15:31 |
| unop_ | xlrr, sorry, /etc/hosts not /etc/resolv.conf | 15:32 |
| amenado | xlrr host is generic term to be any pc..thats why i said your host and then remote host | 15:32 |
| ompaul | Ashfire908, perhaps I am happy enough with the way it is here - on that other platform you don't do some of the stuff you would do in a native situation, for instance X -query boxrunningxdmcp on a native platform is sudo X :1 -query boxrunningxdmcp .. there 1 is a viewing terminal ctrl alt F7 / 8 / 9 depending on how you are set up | 15:32 |
| xlrr | unop_: Do you know where I can find more details on how to accomplish that? | 15:32 |
| Aval0n | hey guys if I want to start a program on startup as a non-root user how would I go about doing that? | 15:32 |
| Aval0n | I'm using feisty | 15:32 |
| unop_ | xlrr, simple really -- examine /etc/hosts -- and follow the format for one of the existing entries -- gksudo gedit /etc/hosts | 15:33 |
| ompaul | Aval0n, what program - ? | 15:33 |
| Sancho- | gregory: no new or better answers, but ill keep on searching :) | 15:33 |

| pip | Hello,I installed ubuntu within vmware running on windows OS,can I mount windows partitions winthin that ubuntu ? | 15:33 |
| gregory | Aval0n: maybe sudo -u username, see man sudo | 15:33 |
| amenado | Aval0n-> daemons are owned by root..what happens when the daemon dies..? | 15:33 |
| Aval0n | gregory: I'm talking about an automated startup script | 15:33 |
| ompaul | Aval0n, then you could use rcconf and stick it in /etc/init.d/ | 15:34 |
| Aval0n | that only works on user name | 15:34 |
| funalien | unop, any suggestions? | 15:34 |

| unop_ | funalien, you shouldn't really censor output like that - the problem is not with /usr/bin/ld not being found -- but crtl.o not being found by /usr/bin/ld -- post the entire output, let's see what the reason is | 15:34 |
| ompaul | Aval0n, so you use runas in your startup script | 15:35 |
| funalien | unop, from config.log? | 15:35 |
| xlrr | unop_: Thanks for your help. I'm in gedit now, but I think I need more help as to what exactly add there? An ip address and some sort of name? How do I find those values? | 15:35 |

| bullgard4 | What is the main difference between sql-lite and mySQL? | 15:36 |
| Aval0n | because rcconf is not even on my machine | 15:36 |

| yowshi | anyone know how to get flash installed on a 64bit os? | 15:38 |

| unop_ | kebinusan, technically you can -- but you'll end up with such a broken system, you'll pull your hair out | 15:47 |
| dubbydubby | fabouney: reinstall and delete swfplayer because the two must be conflicting, check about:plugins in mozilla to see which one is being used | 15:47 |

| * yesttom still has sound problems. | 15:47 | |
| unop_ | fabouney, that looks like swfplayer is poorly coded, you might look into another player | 15:48 |
| unop_ | funalien, what is cs? | 15:48 |
| Jesiegmann | amenado, nope how do i do this and i can't excute grub because I'm running a slackware cd :/ | 15:48 |
| amenado | jimmygoon-> its possible, depends on how you have the network config of the vmware, or vbox.. | 15:48 |
| maney | just a quick observation: #ubuntu+1 migt be a great idea, but it seems to have little useful content. maybe everyone's napping... | 15:48 |

| dury | NIghtFire: and which additional packages | 15:49 |
| kebinusan | Jack_Sparrow: yeah, I was trying to compile an app but it requires libasound2 1.0.16 | 15:49 |
| BorisDmitr1 | funalien: it will download, to your /var/cache/apt/archives | 15:49 |
| jetscreamer | you don't get the shutdown options in gnome if you don't use gdm | 15:49 |
| jetscreamer | if that helps | 15:49 |
| amenado | jimmygoon-> there are network settings on vmware or vbox that guest can not access the host.. | 15:49 |
| funalien | unop_, says, that they aren't installed yer | 15:50 |
| Jesiegmann | amenado, ?hm ok i will read | 15:50 |
| xlrr | unop_: I setup ssh on Comp A (the comp I am on right now). Now the username@compname method aside, I used 'ssh username@ipaddressofcompA' from comp B and got connected, but it prompts me for a password which I don't know of. I tried all of my passwords but it returns 'Permission denied...'. What did I do wrong? Thanks again. | 15:50 |
| unop_ | BorisDmitr1, that could technically download the file from the CD if the CD is the main source for the package (as per apt-cache policy ..) | 15:50 |
| ricosecada | I am messing around with ucarp a bit, and I have got the two machines setup up so one is the master and the other is the backup, and they switch state if I unplug one. I have one problem, if I ping the virtual IP from a third machine, I don't get any responds, what can I be missing? | 15:50 |
| jimmygoon | amenado, wait. are you saying the virtual box could interfere with ubuntu's native ability to connect to FTP... thats not acceptable | 15:50 |
| Jack_Sparrow | kebinusan, chasing dependencies on outside programs is enough to make you crazy.. Just make sure you backup before you do something very hard to fix | 15:50 |
| dury | NIghtFire: what's the command to know which ubuntu I have | 15:50 |

| funalien | unop_, it's in russian | 15:51 |
| dury | NIghtFire: uname -a probably | 15:51 |

| Jack_Sparrow | dury, lsb_release -a | 15:51 |

| jimmygoon | amenado, I know that. I'm literally just connecting from my ubuntu machine to a machine half way across the country that is just a plain windows box w/ ftp... | 15:57 |
| J1MB0 | x0x: I did read an forum post or launchpad question where some guy got one of the UK Three Mobile dongles working on Ubuntu.. so I am sure there is a good chance you can get yours working | 15:57 |
| unop_ | funalien, because you can remove the CD repo from the picture totally | 15:57 |
| jimmygoon | the vmware machine was a machine on MY computer testing the ftp client as well to see if I could connect... | 15:57 |
| funalien | unop_, yes i still need the CD | 15:57 |
| unop_ | funalien, are you asked for the CD then you run the command? | 15:58 |
| amenado | Jesiegmann-> tell you what, can you paste in pastebin the contents of your /dev/sda8 /boot & /boot/grub ? | 15:58 |
| dubbydubby | hey what day does hardy become full release | 15:58 |
| funalien | unop_, yes, I'am | 15:58 |
| unop_ | dubbydubby, ~26th april | 15:58 |
| [agatha] | so this is basically the thing http://img156.imageshack.us/my.php?image=whereisitcs2.png and the whole problem :P | 15:58 |
| amenado | jimmygoon-> your guest has an ip address of what? your host is what? does your front router forwards connection to both? | 15:59 |
| unop_ | funalien, hmm, have you updated the package list lately? | 15:59 |
| Shizuo | Does this no-partition thingy from Ubuntu 8 works? | 15:59 |
| gregory | dubbydubby: : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyReleaseSchedule is the page where you can track the status in case there might be delay | 15:59 |
| dury | so better to download the package through skype site and install it, is it right? | 15:59 |
| fole | how can i set a bug to "triaged". I cannot confirm the bug because i do not have the same version, but believe all information needed is available | 15:59 |
| dury | but needs dependencies | 15:59 |
| amenado | !hardy folks visit #ubuntu+1 please | 15:59 |
| jimmygoon | amenado, I'm sitting in the DMZ here. the host is remote at Cox Hosting... the guest VM doesn't matter. I was just testing. I can leave it out of the picture completely and have the same problem | 15:59 |
| Jesiegmann | amenado, sure but what is pastebin | 16:00 |
| Shizuo | What is Hardy? | 16:00 |
| jimmygoon | !pastebin | Jesiegmann | 16:00 |
| ubotu | Jesiegmann: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 16:00 |
| Jesiegmann | thx | 16:00 |
| funalien | unop_, I don't. I'll try to download with synaptic | 16:00 |

| xlrr | i'm sorry | 16:00 |
| ubotu | Shizuo: 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 BETA SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu | 16:00 |
| Shizuo | What IS hardy? | 16:00 |
| amenado | jimmygoon-> the remote host has the vmware or your host in the DMZ? | 16:00 |
| bazhang | Shizuo: Hardy is the next release-- #ubuntu+1 please | 16:01 |
| jimmygoon | amenado, neither have vmware | 16:01 |
| xlrr | unop_: It still doesnot work. Can I confirm with you that the IP address of comp A is what follows 'inet addr' in the eth0 row from a '/sbin/ifconfig' and that my username on compA is the same as what appears in front of every line in my terminal, i.e. 'username@compAName:~$'? | 16:01 |
| Shizuo | What a lame name | 16:01 |
| amenado | jimmygoon-> if not vmware ..vbox? | 16:01 |

| jimmygoon | amenado, my machine here. plain ole ubuntu with filezilla can not connect to Cox Hosting servers... but my windows machine downstairs can | 16:01 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Shizuo, It isnt the name that counts.. it is what you find under the hood | 16:01 |

| funalien | unop_, everything is ok. I've turned off Ubuntu CD's repository | 16:02 |

| Jack_Sparrow | Shizuo, Please stay on topic | 16:02 |
| Shizuo | gregory: No | 16:02 |
| bazhang | Shizuo: this is not the chit chat channel please visit #ubuntu-offtopic thanks | 16:02 |
| Shizuo | What a bunch of polite folks, here | 16:02 |
| jimmygoon | amenado, correct. and my plain ole ubuntu is sitting in my networks' DMZ | 16:02 |
| Shizuo | I guess the marketing department is off atm | 16:02 |
| gregory | Shizuo: this is international irc behaviour | 16:03 |
| irelinquish | hey whats ther terminal command to identify drives like /dev/sda1 or sda2? | 16:03 |
| bazhang | Shizuo: you have been asked several times | 16:03 |
| knweiss | uboto: FWIW the Hardy release notes refer to #ubuntu not #ubuntu+1. | 16:03 |
| Kevin` | does the ubuntu oem install do hardware dection on the first boot (for device names and such) | 16:03 |
| amenado | jimmygoon-> okay, just for confirmation, from dmz ubuntu can you ping www.ibm.com ? | 16:03 |
| jimmygoon | amenado, yes. In fact. I can even get on #ubuntu on freenode :P | 16:03 |
| Jesiegmann | amenado, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60551/ | 16:03 |
| funalien | unop_, thanks, I've installed build-essential. But now I've another problem installing leafpad | 16:04 |
| bazhang | Kevin`: no need to use the oem install the regular does fine in that department | 16:04 |
| irelinquish | can anyone help me? | 16:04 |
| unop_ | funalien, wow, whats the problem? | 16:04 |
| bazhang | please ask irelinquish | 16:04 |

| jimmygoon | irelinquish, see if that does what you want? | 16:04 |
| unop_ | Lainy, do you see me chatting to you? | 16:04 |
| amenado | jimmygoon-> you do have firewall activated on your dmz ubuntu yes? | 16:04 |
| Lainy | unop_: Yes. | 16:04 |
| Kevin` | bazhang if I move it to a different computer the mac address and similar unique ids will change and it will get a new device name | 16:04 |
| dury | anyone could help me to install SKYPE please | 16:04 |
| jimmygoon | amenado, no. I turned of ufw | 16:04 |

| Jack_Sparrow | dury, wait for it the bots are sleepy this am | 16:07 |
| unop_ | funalien, you probably need this packages -- aptitude install libgtk2.0 libgtk2.0-dev | 16:07 |
| jimmygoon | amenado, nah, different hosting company | 16:07 |
| Possum234 | can someone explain to me how to fix grub error 17? I have an xp drive and a ubuntu drive. Somehow after recieving that error after a few restarts my xp MBR came back | 16:07 |

| Jack_Sparrow | !grub > Possum234 | 16:07 |
| Possum234 | I know I need to use my live cd again | 16:07 |

| amenado | jimmygoon-> what do you mean no ports to connect to? whatever port you have available at Cox..80? 23? 22? | 16:08 |
| Jesiegmann | so the line should be (hd0) /dev/sda8 ? | 16:08 |
| jac0b | I am having a problem with gusty. I can't open nautilus I can open programs but can't go to harddrives or folders its like the file browser is dead | 16:08 |
| unop_ | Lainy, you there mate? | 16:08 |
| commonidiot | does backports mean older versions/ | 16:08 |
| Possum234 | no but i installed ubuntu after xp | 16:08 |
| Jesiegmann | amenado, so the line should be (hd0) /dev/sda8 ? | 16:08 |
| jimmygoon | amenado, thats the output from netcat | 16:08 |
| funalien | unop_, how can I get know what I should install? | 16:09 |

| fabouney | when i try to launch a flash application, i've got thiserror message http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60550/ | 16:09 |
| amenado | jimmygoon-> what is the exact command you tried with netcat? | 16:09 |
| Lainy | unop_: From compB that is. Thanks for your help and patience. | 16:09 |
| dubbydubby | does anyone know if there is a way to use hamachi logmein without downloading their client | 16:09 |
| unop_ | Lainy, strange, well well, all good | 16:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | fabouney, Dont have both installed at the same time or neither will work right | 16:09 |
| jac0b | I try to open nautilus via the terminal but it just sits there and nothing happens | 16:10 |
| Lainy | unop_: :) | 16:10 |
| dubbydubby | I have vpnc and openvpn installed | 16:10 |
| jimmygoon | amenado, I typed "netcat 123.123.123.123" with the correct ip address | 16:10 |
| Jesiegmann | amenado, could i show u the content of my menu.lst just to make sure i didn't screw it up | 16:10 |
| David[A] | I'm eating cheesy grapes. | 16:10 |
| amenado | jimmygoon-> try netcat 123.123.123.123 23 | 16:10 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Jesiegmann, sudo apt-get install pastebinit && cat /boot/grub/menu.lst | pastebinit (Provide Pastebin link in channel) | 16:10 |
| unop_ | fabouney, you could try this package -- libflash-swfplayer | 16:10 |
| fabouney | Jack_Sparrow, i have only swfplayer installed | 16:10 |
| amenado | Jesiegmann-> sure, paste it in pastebin | 16:11 |
| dury | jimmygoon: may it will require dependencies | 16:11 |
| jimmygoon | amenado, (UNKNOWN) [ip address here] 23 (telnet) : Connection refused | 16:11 |
| fabouney | unop_, i use it | 16:11 |
| jimmygoon | dury, maybe? if you double click the deb it will install them | 16:11 |
| amenado | jimmygoon-> use a known port you have at Cox end, 80 maybe? | 16:11 |
| === fangwithu_ is now known as fangwithu | ||
| funalien | unop_, i need to have some experience to install software easy? | 16:11 |
| unop_ | fabouney, it's different from swf-player -- have you tried that too? | 16:11 |
| jimmygoon | amenado, I tried 80... It "took it" I guess and is just sitting there on a new line | 16:11 |
| Nameless_one | hello, I am trying to use aptitude's search function but not everything seems to work as written on the manual, unless I am doing something wrong | 16:12 |
| snerfu | I didn't know cox hosting to have telnet, weird. | 16:12 |
| jac0b | got it I just killed all the running nautilus processes | 16:12 |
| dubbydubby | everyone loves cox .. hosting | 16:12 |
| Jack_Sparrow | jac0b, Were you running Nautilus as root by chance.. | 16:12 |
| unop_ | funalien, knowing what to install is tricky -- if you are compiling something from source and it complains it's missing some package -- you need to have the -dev of that particular package installed -- which is why in this case we install libgtk2.0-dev for Gtk+2 .. | 16:12 |
| jimmygoon | no I hate their isp service and their host is slooow | 16:12 |
| J1MB0 | Does cox hosting not use SFTP/SSH as opposed to FTP? | 16:13 |
| dubbydubby | look at their name... it says it all | 16:13 |
| Nameless_one | I am trying to search for packages that anjuta depends on and aren't installed, so I probably have to use the terms ~Rdepends: and !~i. I can't find a way to search for packages that match both | 16:13 |
| Nameless_one | can anyone help? | 16:13 |
| unop_ | Nameless_one, whats not behabing as it should? | 16:13 |
| funalien | unop_, :) | 16:13 |
| jimmygoon | J1MB0, no. I can connect FTP from a windows machine in my basement | 16:13 |
| unop_ | behaving | 16:13 |
| Nameless_one | unop_, PM? | 16:13 |
| unop_ | Nameless_one, better in here -- other people can help and learn | 16:14 |
| fabouney | UnFred, when i try to install it i have this message : Dépend : libgtk2.0-0 must be not installed | 16:14 |
| J1MB0 | jimmygoon: but no SSH? | 16:14 |
| jac0b | I did but I closed that session | 16:14 |
| fabouney | unop, when i try to install it i have this message : Dépend : libgtk2.0-0 must be not installed | 16:14 |
| amenado | jimmygoon-> you are good to go? | 16:14 |
| jimmygoon | J1MB0, bope. I'm on a windows machine | 16:14 |
| fabouney | unop_, when i try to install it i have this message : Dépend : libgtk2.0-0 must be not installed | 16:14 |
| J1MB0 | jimmygoon: WINSCP? | 16:14 |
| jimmygoon | amenado, ... no :( I still can't ftp to it :S | 16:14 |
| jimmygoon | J1MB0, doubt it | 16:14 |
| jac0b | Jack_Sparrow: I did just too see if natilus was still working | 16:14 |
| Jesiegmann | amenado, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60555/ | 16:14 |
| amenado | jimmygoon-> whats the ftp port? try using that with netcat to test | 16:14 |
| dury | jimmygoon: installing it... how can I run it now | 16:14 |
| artifice | jolas | 16:14 |
| Nameless_one | the manual states that aptitude search term1 term2 will match packages which match both terms, but in practice, I get packages which match either term | 16:14 |
| J1MB0 | jimmygoon: fair play | 16:14 |
| dubbydubby | I think I hosed my comp... | 16:14 |
| keshavkhera | i have a problem regarding graphic drivers..please help | 16:15 |
| dury | jimmygoon: here it is | 16:15 |
| jimmygoon | amenado, ok | 16:15 |
| Nameless_one | and somewhere else in the manual, it says that aptitude search term1 term2 will match packages with either term | 16:15 |
| unop_ | fabouney, ouch -- what happens when you try and remove libgtk2.0-0 ? | 16:15 |
| Jack_Sparrow | jac0b, I was just checking as that could have been the source of your problem | 16:15 |
| dubbydubby | everything is getting errors | 16:15 |
| jimmygoon | dury look in the menu or hit Alt+F2 and type "skype" and hit enter | 16:15 |
| renfrew | greets all, does anyone know of a command to list infrequently used apps/packages? | 16:15 |
| jimmygoon | amenado, same thing. it seems to work and then just sits there after I hit enter | 16:15 |
| unop_ | Nameless_one, search term1 term2 will match either term1 or term2 -- if you want to match both -- you need to use a regular expression -- aptitude search "term1.*term2" | 16:15 |
| dury | jimmygoon: got it, thanks I really appreciate your help and support | 16:16 |
| jac0b | Jack_Sparrow: I think it has to do with the too many threads problem | 16:16 |
| Nameless_one | so if I want to search for packages that anjuta depends on and aren't installed, I can't combine the two patterns | 16:16 |
| jac0b | Jack_Sparrow: have you heard of that? | 16:16 |
| jrib | Nameless_one: what exactly did you try? | 16:16 |
| unop_ | Nameless_one, give me an example of what you are trying so far? | 16:16 |
| amenado | Jesiegmann-> i am not a fan of using UUID in grub, use /dev/sda8 instead and remove quiet and splash to see everything while booting | 16:16 |
| fabouney | unop_, i try, but it's a critic package no ? | 16:16 |
| Jack_Sparrow | jac0b, not really, but it is still early here... not entirely awake | 16:16 |
| === theseus is now known as bonhoffer | ||
| Nameless_one | unop_, I can't because the terms aren't string patterns, they are aptitude's search terms which match packages relating to their state, eg, ~Rdepends:anjuta returns all packages that anjuta depends on | 16:17 |
| Jesiegmann | amenado, ok i post it again after the changes | 16:17 |
| dury | thanks channel :) | 16:17 |
| Jack_Sparrow | enjoy | 16:17 |
| dury | bbl | 16:17 |
| amenado | jimmygoon-> netcat is just to test a port if its active, not to interactively correspond to it..unless you write a script, thats use ftp client or telnet for interactivity | 16:17 |
| unop_ | fabouney, i suspect yea -- but it's strange a package conflicts with it, so i am interested to see what happens -- you dont have to remove libgtk -- just see what happens | 16:17 |
| jimmygoon | amenado, oh | 16:18 |
| dury | really appreciate it | 16:18 |
| dury | :) | 16:18 |

| gregory | dt84: did you burn it as iso or as a data cd? | 16:18 |

| dt84 | jimmygoon: I can hear that it's loading the | 16:19 |

| unop_ | Nameless_one, can you repeat please? :) | 16:19 |

| gregory | dt84: yeah, i figured out that i misunderstood your question. you already have ubuntu installed, right? | 16:20 |
| unop_ | Nameless_one, i guess you might need to use pipe and grep then -- aptitude search .. | grep blah | 16:21 |
| dt84 | gregory: Yes, I'm on ubuntu 7.10 right now. | 16:21 |

| Tu13es | is this tutorial still applicable for Gutsy/Hardy? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=122402 | 16:22 |
| amenado | Jesiegmann-> its not hd0,8 its hd0,7 for /dev/sda8 | 16:22 |
| unop_ | Nameless_one, aptitude search ... | grep -iE "p\t" perhaps?? | 16:22 |
| amenado | Jesiegmann-> also your device.map you have changed? | 16:22 |
| Jesiegmann | amenado, kk and than it should work again? | 16:23 |
| unop_ | Nameless_one, that is if you meant <tab> as in whitespace | 16:23 |
| Jesiegmann | amenado, yeah i cnahed it to (hd8) /dev/sda | 16:23 |
| amenado | Jesiegmann-> you still have to run that grub-install or grub-update i believe | 16:23 |
| unop_ | fabouney, if you didnt uninstall libgtk, there should be nothing to reinstall | 16:23 |
| Nameless_one | unop_, yeah, that's what I though, thanks. I actually want to learn how to do it with aptitude to have more control over my system. The people at #debian sent me away :-S | 16:23 |
| bthornton | Does Ubuntu 7.10 use the same kernel for both the 32-bit and 64-bit distros? | 16:23 |

| ubotu | server1: End-Of-Life is the time when security updates for an Ubuntu release stop. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Website/LifeCycle | 16:35 |
| bazhang | server1: upgrade as that is no longer supported | 16:35 |
| gregory | server1: 5.x why not use 7.1? | 16:35 |

| Jack_Sparrow | server1, Please install nothing older than 6.06 | 16:36 |

| gregory | fabouney: ubuntu takes care of that with dependencies | 16:36 |
| server1 | alright | 16:36 |
| Jack_Sparrow | server1, Dapper Drake... even that is ancient compared to Hardy | 16:36 |
| bazhang | Eythan: that is something that takes some tries and a bit of patience--you really should read up on the site I gave you | 16:36 |
| fabouney | unop_, For example icon of filezilla disappeared | 16:37 |
| unop__ | fabouney, you look at the output of the command and ascertain what has been removed | 16:37 |
| bazhang | Eythan: one other alternative is that your computer bios does not allow that sort of boot | 16:37 |
| server1 | I bet | 16:37 |
| Eythan | bazhang> i am reading it and looking for another way | 16:37 |
| fabouney | unop_, can you tell me the command ? | 16:37 |
| fabouney | unop_, APTITUDE SHOW LIBGTK-2.0-0 ? | 16:38 |
| Eythan | bazhang> the BIOS allows that kind of boot | 16:38 |
| danny | so i do 'unace x file_name.ace' and it says it's extracting, creates the folder, then nothing else. :/ | 16:38 |
| server1 | can I upgrade from 5.xxx? | 16:38 |
| === warlock_ is now known as warlock_handler | ||

| bazhang | jkliff: #ubuntu+1 please thanks | 16:41 |
| unop__ | AlienX, i'm not sure of the answer to your question but when doing something as significant as upgrading a system, it'd be best to ensure all data is backed up first, thats a responsibility | 16:41 |
| jkliff | bazhang, thanks ;) | 16:41 |
| AlienX | unop_, yeah, that's not really an issue, I'm simply more curious as to what to expect. | 16:41 |

| unop__ | Lainy, the hostname is what you gave it -- the full hostname is that name + the domain name of the local network -- that can usually be found by issuing hostname (on compB in this instance) | 16:52 |

| bazhang | Jesiegmann: ah then you can get the super grub live cd for that | 16:54 |

| tanner | whats wrong? | 17:03 |
| bazhang | Jesiegmann: Jack_Sparrow recommends using something else so I must defer to him; do you have a fast internet connection? | 17:04 |
| coleosis | There was a page in the ubuntu wiki for MacBook Pro, using daily snapshots to install | 17:04 |

| Yancho | unop_ testing in which sense? | 17:04 |
| nonix4 | fridge: well given that the kernel uses the part of checksums that actually is there... you should be able to use ddrescue | 17:04 |
| fridge | it is a bad cd, kind of scratched, but I am able to list the contents of the CD, when I try to copy a big file in particular it throws IO errors, I tried dumping the cd with dd & conv=noerror, but that didn't work either | 17:04 |

| Jesiegmann | tanner i'm sitting here for hours and i'm srting to starv | 17:10 |
| tanner | lol | 17:11 |
| unop_ | tanner, OS X has a BSD unix core -- whats common between unix and linux is some of the command -- so yes, some stuff you learn here applies, but there are differences not all applies | 17:11 |

| Yancho | reading it danand_ :)) | 17:13 |
| unop_ | tanner, there's no way of telling because there's no standard -- dir could list contents of a dir. or take you to the moon .. it just depends on the individual system/shell | 17:13 |

| tanner | bullgard4: i uess it is the GUI over the kernel that allows for easy acess of "commands" and starts when you log in. think of it as a GUI over a command line. | 17:23 |
| danand_ | Yancho - that should identify your disk ok to udev | 17:23 |
| Yancho | danand_ / unop : so which one should i call? the host / the hdd itself? because u both suggested different | 17:23 |
| TooSad | what is the file with the links of program in menu of xfce 7.10? | 17:24 |
| tanner | thats what i think anyway | 17:24 |
| rryan | fw0127: 'dmesg | more' will make it so you can see things one page at a time | 17:24 |
| fw0127 | thank you rryan | 17:24 |
| unop | fw0127, or examine /var/log/{syslog,dmesg} | 17:24 |
| tanner | not the actual definition | 17:24 |
| danand_ | Yancho - disk, you cant mix controller and disk in one rule | 17:24 |
| tanner | but hopefully informative enough | 17:24 |
| fw0127 | thanks, i will try.. | 17:24 |
| danand_ | Yancho - see in that tutorial | 17:24 |
| Yancho | oki danand_ :) | 17:24 |
| bazhang | TooSad: many here likely run gnome; you could try in #xubuntu | 17:24 |
| TooSad | k | 17:25 |
| danand_ | Yancho - then again i could be wrong :) | 17:25 |
| Yancho | danand_ this is how it is : SYSFS{vendor}=="ST316081",KERNEL=="sd*",SYMLINK+="usbhd%n" | 17:25 |
| tanner | edu and regular ubuntu all have gnome prepacked | 17:25 |
| gyaresu | fw0127: If it's a graphics error you might also look in /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 17:25 |
| tanner | so, unless you changed it, we pretty much all have gnome | 17:25 |
| danand_ | Yancho - that looks ok to me... give it a try... | 17:25 |
| bullgard4 | tanner: I disagree. I believe a definition should allow to determine the begin and the end of a session. | 17:25 |
| kkerwin | Hi. I upgraded to 8.04, only to find that it broke my wireless network. Unfortunately, I don't have the time to figure out what went wrong. I was wondering if there was an easy way to downgrade back to Gutsy? | 17:25 |
| tanner | hmm | 17:25 |
| tanner | let me see if i can find you a def. bullgard | 17:26 |
| bazhang | kkerwin: sadly no | 17:26 |
| danand_ | Yancho - rather than rebooting try out udevtest... you dont need to reboot for udev to pick things up ... | 17:26 |
| kkerwin | bazhang: Is there a hard way to downgrade to Gutsy? :-) | 17:26 |
| jrib | kkerwin: back up data and reinstall is the easy way | 17:26 |
| bazhang | kkerwin: well you know that one I would wager ;] | 17:26 |
| fw0127 | there is no such infor | 17:26 |
| Yancho | danand_ does this looks ok? : http://yancho.pastebin.com/d65d03a3a | 17:27 |
| gyaresu | fw0127: ? | 17:27 |
| kkerwin | Hmm. Curse words are verboten on this channel, yes? | 17:27 |
| HetaUma | is there any known issues with wifi cards and hardy? I have the same problem with kkerwin | 17:27 |
| tritium | kkerwin: yes | 17:27 |
| Jesiegmann | Jack_Sparrow, can i bother u again? | 17:27 |
| Yancho | sorry i pasted the wrong danand_ | 17:27 |
| tanner | ahh g2g | 17:27 |
| tanner | bye | 17:27 |
| bazhang | #ubuntu+1 please HetaUma | 17:27 |
| danand_ | Yancho - yeah. I think so. try and mount it | 17:27 |
| fw0127 | i mean with dmesg, i cannot see the error after bootup message "loading...." | 17:27 |
| Yancho | danand_ : http://yancho.pastebin.com/d67ac6cb8 | 17:28 |
| === PmDematagoda_ is now known as PmDematagoda | ||
| gyaresu | kkerwin: you could always change your source.list back to gutsy repos. Worse that could happen is that it's a massive mess. Backup ~ then reinstall. | 17:28 |
| === stoian is now known as dns-away | ||
| gyaresu | fw0127_s: What is the problem? Errors happen sometimes because installed packages that you don't even use aren't configured properly. | 17:28 |
| kkerwin | gyaresu: I tried that, but it didn't cause a downgrade. | 17:28 |
| danand_ | Yancho - :) Can you mount the disk though?? | 17:29 |
| Yancho | danand_ this is my line in fstab : /dev/usbhd1 /media/dbhdd ext3 defaults,rw 0 0 .. now im trying to sudo mount - a | 17:29 |
| fabouney | I have this error message when i try to launch flash application with sxfplayer : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60570/ | 17:29 |
| gyaresu | kkerwin: If you do reinstall make sure you take all the packages with you | 17:29 |
| fw0127 | i think something with resume, i am not sure... | 17:29 |
| kkerwin | gyaresu: That's the cache, yes? | 17:29 |
| Yancho | danand_ seems it worked :D | 17:29 |
| gyaresu | kkerwin: aye. | 17:30 |
| fw0127 | gyaresu, how can you send private message | 17:30 |
| danand_ | Yancho - :D COOL!! | 17:30 |
| Yancho | danand : /dev/sdb1 79G 939M 75G 2% /media/dbhdd | 17:30 |
| Yancho | but problem is in desktop i have dbhdd and dbhdd(2) lol | 17:30 |
| AlexLatchford | Hey guys, anyone have any ideas on how to stay connected to a Netgear Wireless Card after a restart? I have the card working using ndiswrapper, but every time I reboot it appears as though ndiswrapper is not loaded.. | 17:30 |
| bullgard4 | Using gconf-editor 2.20.0 > / > apps > metacity > global_keybindings I created a run_command_15. This works well. But why does the Configuration editor warn: "This key is not associated with any schema." What do I need here a schema for? | 17:30 |
| gyaresu | fw0127: Generally don't send pm. use the group knowledge to help you. | 17:30 |
| danand_ | Yancho - noooooo..... | 17:30 |
| gyaresu | fw0127: Sometimes people give bad advice. | 17:30 |
| Ramunas | hello, I have a 5.1 soundcard and I'm trying to connect regular earphones to it, but when I do connect them, only one channel plays, if I connect them to anothe socket, there is no bass. How do I get it to work normally? | 17:30 |
| fw0127 | yes | 17:30 |
| gyaresu | Ramunas: We need more information. What card? What have you done already? | 17:31 |
| danand_ | Yancho - another few hours trying to get rid of dbhdd(2) :) | 17:31 |
| Ramunas | gyaresu: c-media pci cmi8738-mc6 | 17:31 |
| Yancho | danand_ please look at this : http://yancho.pastebin.com/d3a367532 | 17:31 |
| gyaresu | Ramunas: Checked that the channel is up? | 17:32 |
| fw0127 | there is a erro | 17:32 |
| eradicus | ubuntu rocks | 17:32 |
| gyaresu | eradicus: That's great but you need to say that in #ubuntu-offtopic :) | 17:33 |
| fw0127 | after the x windows launched, the terminal is black, and there is something with resume | 17:33 |
| danand_ | Yancho - ok, that looks fine to me ... what are you worried about? | 17:33 |
| bpitch | grüß gott :) | 17:33 |
| patrick_ | pbugni | 17:33 |
| eradicus | gyaresu, oops, my apologies | 17:33 |
| Yancho | danand_ the second dbhdd(2) and also the fact that the second partition it did not mount | 17:33 |
| pbugni_ | hi patrick_ | 17:33 |

| bpitch | thx | 17:34 |
| fw0127 | woher kommst du, bpitch? | 17:35 |
| gyaresu | Ramunas: (I don't use gnome so I'm very command line oriented but...) If you run 'alsamixer' from the command line it will show you the soundcard levels. Just check that you have both right & left up on the PCM & MASTER channels | 17:35 |

| Zack1403 | hey can anyone help me out as to what the reverse to alt+tab is (windows was alt+shift+tab)? | 17:37 |
| jrib | Zack1403: same | 17:38 |
| fw0127 | come back | 17:38 |
| danand_ | Yancho - I only see one /media/dbhdd in the output ... that dbhdd(2) may dissapear when you restart x .... As for the other partition have you tried to mount it yet? mount -t ext3 /dev/usbhd2 mountpoint ?? You'll need a second entry in /etc/fstab for that partition | 17:38 |
| Zack1403 | jrib: hmm is there a reason i would get no response to alt shift tab? | 17:38 |
| jrib | Zack1403: what window manager are you using? | 17:38 |
| fabouney | "Your X server expects RGB24 pixmap data for standard mode." | 17:38 |
| fabouney | What does this mean? | 17:38 |
| Zack1403 | jrib: whatever the default is for 7 | 17:39 |
| Yancho | danand_ im trying to put the 2nd partition to mount also on fstab but im getting : mount: mount point /media/extrahd does not exist | 17:39 |
| boebi | hey | 17:39 |
| jrib | Zack1403: do you have effects enabled? | 17:39 |
| melvster | is there any rdc alternative to krdc on ubuntu (im running kubuntu 7.10) | 17:39 |
| danand_ | Yancho - you need to create that folder in /media first | 17:39 |
| fw0127 | why my tty1 is blank after x up? | 17:39 |
| Zack1403 | jrib: when i enabled my restricted graphics card it looks like they got turned on by default | 17:39 |
| boebi | when i try installing ubuntu, it gives an error when installing grub 'error: GRUB cannot be installed (hd0), this is a fatal error' | 17:39 |
| fabouney | unop, y problem comes from the server xgl (What does this mean?) | 17:39 |
| Yancho | danand_ : a yes stupid me :) | 17:39 |
| fabouney | unop, my* | 17:40 |
| Zack1403 | jrib: *restricted driver | 17:40 |
| danand_ | Yancho - long day?? You've been at this a while :) | 17:40 |
| jrib | Zack1403: seems to be ctrl-alt-shift-tab in compiz-fusion (the thing that gives you effects) | 17:40 |
| gyaresu | Ramunas: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-385794.html Is this similar? | 17:40 |
| fabouney | unop, Your X server expects RGB24 pixmap data for standard mode. i have this message when i launch flash application | 17:40 |
| No1CaNTeL | hello all, hopefully this is q will be easier for you guys then me :P How can I find out which process is keeping my dvd drive in use? I currently share via samba my dvd drive on the network so that my xbox can connnect and play media using my PC's DVD drive. Now I have the share working just fine, the movies/music play, but the dvd drive refuses to release saying that it is still in use when it is not. This only ha | 17:40 |
| Ramunas | gyaresu: that guy is trying to get surround, I'm trying to get rid of it, and use normal earphones | 17:41 |
| No1CaNTeL | I've checked if it was virtual box, but that didnt get me anywhere, and now I was going through the processes and, well, I'm still a bit new to linux so I haven't a clue what is what :P | 17:41 |
| Zack1403 | jrib: excellent thank you, where can i mess with my window manager settings? (possibly to change this) | 17:41 |
| Yancho | danand_ worked fine .. except that i got extrahdd(2) too now :| its like the rule is being called twice :( | 17:41 |
| pianoboy3333 | Anyone know about setting up a Philips web cam? Mine works, but I was wondering how to optimize it, maybe make it so my flash isn't on all the time, etc | 17:41 |
| gyaresu | Ramunas: Cool. This? http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php/Cmipci | 17:42 |
| danand_ | Yancho - thats on the desktop only right? | 17:42 |
| Yancho | yeps | 17:42 |
| Yancho | should i restart to see whta happens? | 17:42 |
| jrib | Zack1403: if you install the compizconfig-settings-manager package, you will be able to use "custom effects" in your System -> Preferences -> Appearance -> Effects tab. You should be able to change it there. If you need more details, the folks at #compiz-fusion can probably help | 17:42 |
| arooni | i just plugged in a creative webcam.... it seems ubuntu sees it but i cant use it with skype (all i see is black background)....... any ideas? | 17:42 |
| leladia | please i am wondering if anyone here knows of a chat room where function point counting is discussed? | 17:43 |
| danand_ | Yancho - yeah, was gonna suggest that... Desktop may have got itself in a pickle. I'm betting those duplicates will dissapear with restart. | 17:43 |
| bullgard4 | Using gconf-editor 2.20.0 > / > apps > metacity > global_keybindings I created a run_command_15. This works well. But why does the Configuration editor warn: "This key is not associated with any schema." What do I need here a schema for? | 17:43 |
| Yancho | restart it is :D | 17:43 |

| Skiessi | boebi, do you have boot sector protection set enabled in BIOS? | 17:45 |

| gyaresu | boebi: Which version are you installing? | 17:46 |
| Ramunas | gyaresu: its about this card, but again, it talks about enabling surround, not how to use the card in normal mode | 17:46 |

| r0land | Skiessi, ya.. i tried the ones existing in add/remove.. they didnt work! | 17:47 |
| fabouney | unop, yes | 17:47 |
| Yancho | danand_ defaults by itself is not enough | 17:47 |
| Yancho | ? | 17:47 |
| fabouney | unop, VLC | 17:47 |
| gyaresu | Ramunas: Sorry man. I'm just trying to find appropriate documentation. I don't know exactly what might be the problem. | 17:47 |

| ConstyXIV | boebi: when you're installing, on the last step (7 of 7), find an (advanced) button. where it says (hd0), replace with "/dev/hda" if you have a IDE drive, or "/dev/sda" if you have a SCSI, USB, or flash drive | 17:50 |
| Gralco | does anyone know where i can get some good skydomes for compiz | 17:51 |

| No1CaNTeL | I'm a bit new to nix so I need a bit more then that if ya can :P | 17:55 |
| Benandro | No1CaNTeL: try '/sbin/lsof /dev/dvd' | 17:55 |

| ythe1300 | Hey I am having trouble configuring my wireless. I have the driver installed and it says it sees the hardware but I can't change it. ( the driver is netwm126) | 17:55 |
| justsee | hi, can't remember the package to install which has all the basics: java ttffonts etc all in one? | 17:55 |
| r0land | lordleemo, lemme try | 17:56 |
| themime | gralco: that might be a router/port forwarding issue, are you behind a router? | 17:56 |
| Skiessi | Gralco, what says that? | 17:56 |
| themime | skiessi: the "blizzard downloader" is what hes using | 17:56 |
| Gralco | skiessi, the wow downloader | 17:56 |
| themime | skiessi: it uses bit torrent technology | 17:56 |
| r0land | lordleemo, no blues gnome werent installed.. installign now | 17:56 |
| Gralco | themime, my router isnt under a fire wall i dont think | 17:56 |
| Skiessi | :I I had no problems with that when I tried it once | 17:57 |
| No1CaNTeL | Benando: still no luck :( | 17:57 |
| Gralco | themeime, if it is i might just connect my modem | 17:57 |
| themime | gralco: if you have the ability to do that, that would be a good temporary fix | 17:57 |
| unop_ | fabouney, you there? | 17:57 |
| Benandro | what is the erropr msg, No1CaNTeL? | 17:57 |
| ythe1300 | err I meant netmw125 | 17:57 |
| Gralco | themime, what is that you mean | 17:57 |
| Skiessi | r0land, check the menu there should be a bluetooth filesharing thing if you have gnome-bluetooth installled | 17:57 |
| gyaresu | Gralco: You have an adsl router? Do you know what ports you need open? | 17:57 |
| Skiessi | brb | 17:57 |
| ConstyXIV | you can't "install" software from the livecd, can you? | 17:57 |
| fabouney | unop, yes, you don't see my private message ? | 17:58 |
| themime | gralco: i think its the router though. im new to ubuntu but 99% of the time its a router issue. idon't think ubuntu has a firewall like you think, like windows does | 17:58 |
| r0land | Skiessi, k found it after instalation.. now wht | 17:58 |
| Gralco | gyaresu, netgear | 17:58 |
| No1CaNTeL | it gives me a msg saying cannot eject volume, An Application is preventing the volume from being ejected | 17:58 |
| unop_ | fabouney, are you registered on freenode ? | 17:58 |
| fabouney | yes | 17:58 |
| No1CaNTeL | but no reference to which app | 17:58 |
| themime | gralco: if you can just directly connect to the router, itll be a lot faster. but it would be more of a permanent fix to forward the ports | 17:58 |
| unop_ | fabouney, hmm | 17:58 |
| Gralco | gyaresu, its still downloading but a firewall may be slowing it down | 17:58 |
| gyaresu | Gralco: And there must be a WoW support site that mentions necessary open ports? | 17:58 |
| themime | gralco: http://portforward.com/ | 17:58 |
| r0land | Skiessi, lordleemo k i turned bluetooth on my cell... now how do i send a file to it or recieve from it | 17:58 |
| adorablepuppy | Someone please tell me why my sound juicer MP3 profile isn't working. It doesn't even show up in the list of things to choose even though it's marked active and i've got lame installed. | 17:58 |
| themime | gralco: that site has everything, find your router, and choose the game (wow obviously) and itll tell you everything | 17:59 |
| No1CaNTeL | and all apps I have used with the drive have been shutdown, including powering off my xbox which is what is accessing the drive | 17:59 |
| gyaresu | themime: You can type the first couple of letters of a name and then hit TAB to autocomplete. | 17:59 |
| Skiessi | r0land, you know how to send files with your cell phone, right? | 17:59 |
| themime | gyaresu: i think you have me mmistaken for someone else | 17:59 |
| Benandro | in fact it depends: when I said '/sbin/lsof /dev/dvd', I assumed that your dvd drive is on '/dev/dvd'. you have to change '/dev/dvd' by '/dev/YourDVD_device' | 17:59 |
| unop_ | fabouney, are you getting my private messages? | 17:59 |
| r0land | Skiessi, ya of course.. i search for available bluetooth devices... nothing shows | 17:59 |
| gyaresu | < themime> gralco: that site has everything, | 17:59 |
| fabouney | unop_, yes | 17:59 |
| No1CaNTeL | kk, one sec | 17:59 |
| fabouney | unop_, are you identify on freenode ? | 17:59 |
| lordleemo | r0land: aplications accesories bluetoothe file sharing | 17:59 |
| Gralco | themime, actually ubuntu has a firewall update | 18:00 |
| themime | gyaresu: what does that have to do with autocomplete? | 18:00 |
| Skiessi | r0land, do you have the bluetooth icon upper right corner? | 18:00 |
| r0land | lordleemo, it just opens an icon in the bar next to the clock.. thts it | 18:00 |
| themime | gyaresu: we're talking about port forwarding for a router, not autocomplete | 18:00 |
| Skiessi | *icon there | 18:00 |
| r0land | Skiessi, the bluetoth file sharing.. yes | 18:00 |
| themime | gralco: ah, then that could also be an issue as well, im not sure about the ubuntu firewall | 18:00 |
| gyaresu | you typed gralco which is different to Gra* etc. Case sensetive. | 18:00 |
| lordleemo | r0land: what are you trying to connect to ? | 18:00 |
| themime | aah ok | 18:01 |
| Gralco | gyaresu, ubuntu has an update in which there is a firewall | 18:01 |
| r0land | lordleemo, wht do u mean! i just search.. and when i find my pc i send to it.. | 18:01 |
| fabouney | unop_, i see ur message and you ? | 18:01 |
| unop | fabouney, allez a #ubuntu-fr, je vais la bas | 18:01 |
| fabouney | unop, ok | 18:01 |
| gyaresu | Gralco: yeah but you haven't installed it right? | 18:01 |
| lordleemo | r0land: thats what i did | 18:01 |
| r0land | lordleemo, well the pc doesnt show | 18:01 |
| sensae | Hello | 18:01 |
| Gralco | gyaresu, yes i alway install that attachment | 18:02 |
| themime | Gralco: even if you have the firewall installed, the router would still be an issue as well | 18:02 |
| Benandro | No1CaNTeL: first of all, you have to know which (file) device represents your DVD hardware. Usually it's /dev/dvd. So, the 'lsof' command will show you the apps using this (file) device (lsof = LiSt Open Files) | 18:02 |
| Skiessi | r0land, rightclick the icon, open settings and make your pc visible if it isn't already | 18:02 |
| lordleemo | r0land: system administration sessions do you have bluetooth in there | 18:02 |
| gyaresu | Gralco: what netgear do you have? | 18:02 |
| r0land | Skiessi, theres no preference.. theres just "about and Quit" | 18:02 |
| r0land | lordleemo, lemme check | 18:02 |
| Gralco | themime, yes, i will most likely directly connect the modem soon | 18:02 |

| lordleemo | r0land: do you use usb card or is bluetooth in built | 18:05 |
| No1CaNTeL | when I check properties I get my drive at /media/cdrom0 | 18:05 |
| Benandro | No1CaNTeL: try this one: 'cat /etc/fstab |grep cdrom' (without the apostrophes) | 18:05 |
| r0land | Skiessi, 7,10 | 18:05 |
| hyw | is there a way to list all the boot partitions in my pc for example hd0,1 hd1,1 the ones which are used | 18:05 |
| Benandro | yeah! ok! | 18:05 |
| Gralco | byaresu themime, ill be right back guys im going to directly connect my modem | 18:05 |
| No1CaNTeL | nothing happened :( | 18:05 |
| Benandro | so the command 'cat /etc/fstab |grep cdrom' will give you something like '/dev/hdd /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto 0 0' | 18:06 |

My ubuntu machine no longer recognises my dvdrom, nor a cdrw I transplanted in this morning. Both devices work elsewhere. Can anyone advise me how to proceed? | 18:07 |
| sensae | gyaresu: ATI card :/ | 18:08 |
| No1CaNTeL | I'm a programmer, just new to nix ;) those things I am aware of :P | 18:08 |
| DualBoot | thanks, gregory | 18:08 |
| Benandro | huh... try '/sbin/lsof /media/cdrom0' | 18:08 |
| lordleemo | r0land: ok has the bluetooth symbol appeared on your desktop top right corner | 18:08 |
| gyaresu | sensae: Ah. Well AMD is making them better. There's that. At least they're not completely useless anymore. | 18:08 |
| r0land | lordleemo, ya the file sharing tht exists in accessories | 18:08 |
| No1CaNTeL | are these supposed to be sudo'ed? | 18:09 |
| r0land | lordleemo, just when i click on it.. | 18:09 |
| sensae | gyaresu: Yeah, doesn't change the fact my next purchase will be NVidia. Oh well, I'll just forget dual monitors, don't need em that bad | 18:09 |

| === nomi1 is now known as nomic | ||
| Benandro | huh, sorry! it's not '/sbin/lsof'. The right one is '/usr/bin/lsof' | 18:10 |
| lordleemo | r0land: ok exit that one ie file sharing . then turn off and on your bluetooth | 18:10 |
| No1CaNTeL | lol | 18:10 |
| No1CaNTeL | kk, one sec ;) | 18:10 |
| nomic | fredreichbier there are perl scripts which do conversions like that | 18:10 |
| Benandro | so: /usr/bin/lsof /media/cdrom0 | 18:10 |
| fredreichbier | nomic: where? :) | 18:10 |
| nomic | google it | 18:10 |
| r0land | lordleemo, done | 18:10 |

| fredreichbier | thanks gyaresu, nomic, i'll use http://pacpl.sourceforge.net/downloads.html | 18:12 |
| RobD | ok - have managed to mount the RAID partition (or at least it looks like I have) Anyone know which linux-*** package is best to install for old hardware compatibility? | 18:12 |
| gyaresu | No1CaNTeL: Might not be an open file. Might be samba. | 18:12 |
| lordleemo | r0land: you installed gnome-bluetooth | 18:12 |
| gyaresu | fredreichbier: np | 18:12 |
| r0land | lordleemo, yes | 18:12 |
| No1CaNTeL | is there a way to disable then re-enable samba with0ut rebooting? | 18:12 |

| mescon | Sorry, but I just upgraded to the Hardy Heron beta from 7.10... now the soundcard doesn't seem to be loaded, lshw -C sound gives me 828001G ICH7 HD Audio Controller (UNCLAIMED)... what module needs to be loaded for it to work? | 18:21 |
| mescon | ive googled everywhere | 18:21 |
| LjL-Temp | !hardy | mescon | 18:21 |
| ubotu | mescon: 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 BETA SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu | 18:21 |
| zero88 | Does anyone know how to hide the borders or Eterm Terminal? | 18:21 |
| gyaresu | No1CaNTeL: Humour me :) if it's not mounted then type 'eject' (or 'eject /dev/dvd') | 18:21 |
| mescon | ok | 18:21 |
| mescon | thanks | 18:21 |
| maghetto | ciao ciao | 18:21 |
| artti | spidefire, when i insert cd or dvd for installing something, then popup doesn't appear. | 18:21 |
| geektasticgirl | thanks sir sparrow :) | 18:22 |
| lordleemo | r0land: same as me should not make a difference though. can you turn off bletooth ie hit the switch and try turning on again | 18:22 |
| Jack_Sparrow | np | 18:22 |
| r0land | lordleemo, ill have to dc.. | 18:22 |
| No1CaNTeL | I am :P and I think it is mounted | 18:22 |
| No1CaNTeL | /dev/scd0 on /media/cdrom0 type iso9660 (ro,nosuid,nodev,user=me) | 18:22 |
| gyaresu | there you go. 'umount /media/cdrom0' | 18:22 |
| boebi | Executing 'Grub-install (hd0)' failed. This is a fatal error. | 18:22 |
| boebi | help? | 18:22 |
| lordleemo | r0land: why disconnect | 18:22 |
| r0land | lordleemo, wht do u do if u wanted to send a file from ur pc to a cell! | 18:23 |
| r0land | lordleemo, bluetooth/wirless are in the same button | 18:23 |
| proximo | ive got a comp with 210GB data on NTFS partitions that i need to move over to another comp running Vista, would it be possible (and not extremely complicated) to boot from ubuntu livecd and find the Vista comp on the network to transfer files ? | 18:23 |
| gyaresu | boebi: Did you try the 'advanced option' and set it to hda or sda? | 18:23 |
| boebi | i tried '/dev/hda' yes | 18:23 |
| Stroganoff | proximo, yes though i would use Knoppix | 18:23 |
| boebi | should i try '/dev/sda' ? | 18:23 |
| artti | spidefire, and when i go /media/ and there watch the contents of disk, then there are questionmarks replaceing filenames. | 18:23 |
| No1CaNTeL | :P ty, but my pc does seem to be done with you guys yet, sorry :( | 18:23 |
| No1CaNTeL | says device is busy | 18:23 |
| gyaresu | proximo: No. It would be fairly easy if the network device etc. is recognised. | 18:23 |
| Benandro | ok so it's mounted. | 18:24 |
| boebi | should i try '/dev/sda' ? | 18:24 |
| lordleemo | r0land: normally when i turn on bluetooth an icon appears i can then scan send etc | 18:24 |
| gyaresu | boebi: No. You should find out what your drive recognised as first. | 18:24 |
| proximo | Stroganoff: why knoppix ? not used to knoppix at all | 18:24 |
| r0land | lordleemo, :s | 18:24 |
| boebi | gya, how do i find that out? | 18:24 |
| proximo | gyaresu: i reckon it should be, im running on that comp using pclos livecd right now | 18:24 |
| Stroganoff | proximo: just because it specializes on being a livecd | 18:24 |
| r0land | lordleemo, u think it might b a driver prob! | 18:25 |
| spiderfire | artti: no idea what that is | 18:25 |
| Stroganoff | proximo: it's very easy to use, debian and kde based. | 18:25 |
| gyaresu | boebi: open a terminal and type 'sudo fdisk -l' | 18:25 |
| Adys | hmm, how do i change the default icons for specific mime type or extension? | 18:25 |
| No1CaNTeL | anything else I can try? | 18:25 |
| Stroganoff | proximo: ntfs and samba support are built in | 18:25 |
| boebi | gya, ok and then what? cause im in windows and need to reboot everytime, i have no internet in ubuntu yet | 18:25 |
| lordleemo | r0land: im not sure maybe someone else has same laptop. are you sure there is only one button | 18:26 |
| proximo | Stroganoff: hmmm ok, ill give it a look then, just hate to start using something ive never seen before =P | 18:26 |
| r0land | lordleemo, ya ya i use it on both vista and xp.. am sur eof it | 18:26 |
| gyaresu | Stroganoff: proximo and knoppix has the command 'sambastart' which is a script for sharing your hard drives over samba. very friendly | 18:26 |
| jacob | can somebody assist me in having my wireless connections work? | 18:26 |
| lordleemo | r0land: what make is it ill have a look on net | 18:26 |
| gyaresu | boebi: This sort of thing is always easier with a second machine to irc/surf with. | 18:27 |
| r0land | lordleemo, dunno as i said its built in.. as for my laptop is toshiba tecra a9 | 18:27 |
| boebi | gya, i know but everything is packed since im going on holiday tomorrow lol | 18:27 |
| boebi | ill see, thanks | 18:27 |
| proximo | Stroganoff: hehe sounds fairly easy, have been put off by knoppix reputation for not being "the beginners distro" =P | 18:27 |
| IndyGunFreak | r0land: what kidn pf problem are you having on that?.. no sound? | 18:27 |
| gyaresu | boebi: if it's /dev/sda then select that. if it's /dev/hda then you put that in... if it's /dev/sdb etc. | 18:28 |
| Stroganoff | different distros for different purposes, proximo | 18:28 |
| Stroganoff | and its debian based so no harm is done ;) | 18:28 |
| hyw | Can one help, I cant boot windows only linux | 18:28 |
| r0land | IndyGunFreak, no.. sound is working perfectly.. but no bluetooth | 18:28 |
| lordleemo | r0land: ok give me 5 ill have a look please ask again though maybe someone else can help with why its not working | 18:28 |
| IndyGunFreak | r0land: oh ok | 18:28 |
| gyaresu | jacob: I can help. | 18:28 |
| artti | When i watch cd content, then it is empty. | 18:28 |
| r0land | lordleemo, sure thing.. thank u :) | 18:28 |
| No1CaNTeL | I'm not sure if this detail helps but when I use a paper clip to eject the drive, then instert a new disc, Ubuntu does not register that a new disc was inserted but in VirtualBox/XP it does | 18:28 |
| ZiRo`osx | is there anyway to have ubuntu announce bonjour services>? | 18:28 |
| r0land | IndyGunFreak, but now tht u mention it.. if i plug in a headset the sound from the builtinspeakers keep on playing | 18:28 |
| No1CaNTeL | I cant eject the drive from within the vbox though | 18:28 |
| No1CaNTeL | as well as ubuntu | 18:28 |
| Benandro | your '/dev/scd0' device is mounted on '/media/cdrom0'. | 18:29 |
| Benandro | try 'umount /media/cdrom0' | 18:29 |
| Benandro | (better: 'umount -l /media/cdrom0'). | 18:29 |
| IndyGunFreak | r0land: you probably hav IntelHDA, which support sucks for in Feisty/Gutsy.. i think its fixed in Hardy | 18:29 |
| r0land | IndyGunFreak, hmmm then i have to wait for the next stable release of hardy and upgrade | 18:29 |
| Benandro | No1CaNTeL: what you are describing is an automount problem. | 18:30 |
| lordleemo | r0land: please type this in a terminal sudo toshset -bluetooth on | 18:30 |
| jacob | gyaresu, ok let's get started | 18:30 |
| jacob | gyaresu, thank you | 18:30 |
| No1CaNTeL | Benandro ------ THANK U!! | 18:30 |
| vydraWP | join taintedbagel.net | 18:30 |
| No1CaNTeL | it is open, and for once I didnt have to reboot! | 18:30 |
| r0land | lordleemo, result "bluetooth attached" | 18:30 |
| themime | i just ran apt-get install vim-full, it looks like its installing some gnome stuff....is it doing a full gnome install? | 18:30 |
| No1CaNTeL | thank all of you :D | 18:30 |
| themime | there is no GUI at the moment by the way | 18:31 |
| gyaresu | jacob: much linux experience? | 18:31 |
| Benandro | No1CaNTeL: so it worked. but... which command? ;) | 18:31 |
| No1CaNTeL | the last one, umount -l /media/cdrom0 | 18:31 |
| LHoT10820 | hi everyone | 18:31 |
| jacob | gyaresu, about one year of experience | 18:31 |
| No1CaNTeL | the second it didnt say device is busy :P | 18:31 |
| No1CaNTeL | I knew something was working | 18:31 |
| jacob | gyaresu, or about 7 months | 18:31 |
| LHoT10820 | I need to normalize the volume of an ogg track so I can hear it on my arcades ITG2 machine. | 18:31 |
| lordleemo | r0land: apparently on your model bluetooth is turned off on reboot u must use that command to start it see here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/ToshibaTecraA9 | 18:31 |
| gyaresu | jacob: K. well i'm a command line guy so. what's the card (lspci)? | 18:31 |
| LHoT10820 | Can anyone help me | 18:31 |
| nagarajan | wat is the channel for compiz fusion? | 18:32 |
| spiderfire | what steps can i take to save the process? | 18:32 |
| LjL-Temp | nagarajan #compiz-fusion | 18:32 |
| artti | What every dvd or cd is empty, when i insert it to dvd-rom!!1 | 18:32 |
| r0land | lordleemo, thank u | 18:32 |
| r0land | ill give it a look | 18:32 |
| Benandro | type 'man umount', it'll explain you what's the meaning of the '-l' option. | 18:32 |
| Flannel | themime: You want just plain "vim" to install the non-GUI stuff too | 18:32 |
| gyaresu | lazy | 18:32 |
| lordleemo | r0land: got there in the end your welcome | 18:32 |
| Stroganoff | themime: you want to use "nano" instead of "vim" | 18:32 |
| No1CaNTeL | I will look that over is a sec, right now I want to get that line in a launcher on my desktop :P | 18:32 |
| Traveler3 | hi, whats the latest version of ubuntu that is actually released? 7.04? | 18:32 |
| jacob | gyaresu, it says 'Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 | 18:32 |
| Benandro | and... try not to force an eject, as it doesn't work well with automount features | 18:33 |
| Flannel | Traveler3: 7.10 | 18:33 |
| jacob | gyaresu, i'm using ubuntu 8.04 by the way | 18:33 |
| themime | Stroganoff: i don't have gnome installed, and i don't want full gnome installed. is full gnome apart of vim? | 18:33 |
| Adys | how do i change the default icons for a specific mime type or extension? | 18:33 |
| Stroganoff | themime: nano is a console based editor | 18:33 |
| gyaresu | jacob: DUDE. | 18:33 |
| themime | Stroganoff: so is vim | 18:33 |
| Stroganoff | yes | 18:33 |
| jacob | gyaresu, the hardware drivers in the admistration menu has a firmware but it freezes my computer everytime | 18:33 |
| Flannel | themime: No, but vim-full installs gvim, which will drag in some gnome libs | 18:33 |
| LHoT10820 | Hi, I need to normalize the volume of a song, can anyone help? | 18:34 |
| gyaresu | jacob: You broke my heart. Wrong channel :) https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/203819/+viewstatus | 18:34 |
| Jay_Levitt | All: apologies for the netiquette, but the wiki is dead. Anyone know *anything* about locales? I went from Dapper to Gutsy, my locale went from "" to (I guess) "en_us.UTF8", and now Postgres is complaining. | 18:34 |
| Flannel | Jay_Levitt: Did you go straight from dapper to gutsy? | 18:34 |
| themime | Flannel: bah, im following "the perfect server" ubuntu install and it said to do that, grr | 18:34 |
| Jay_Levitt | Flannel: fraid so | 18:34 |
| Jay_Levitt | Flannel: Actually, what I really did is a fresh install of gutsy | 18:34 |
| themime | http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_server_ubuntu7.10_p3 | 18:34 |
| Flannel | themime: HowToForge is a load of rubbish. Don't touch it. | 18:34 |
| spiderfire | LHoT10820: audacity | 18:35 |
| LjL-Temp | themime: no, full GNOME is a part of emacs, not of vim | 18:35 |
| jacob | gyaresu, this bug reported was for ubuntu 8.04? | 18:35 |
| Flannel | Jay_Levitt: Ah, that's not so bad then. What exactly is postgres complaining about? | 18:35 |
| Daniel^ | yay 4 ubuntu | 18:35 |
| LHoT10820 | spiderfire: Okay. | 18:35 |
| themime | ok, as long as its no wasting a ton of time with full gnome, i guess itll be alright, thanks | 18:35 |
| jacob | gyaresu, i made it work for ubuntu 7.10 by the way | 18:35 |
| Jay_Levitt | Flannel: It says " Error: The server must be started under the locale : which does not exist any more." | 18:35 |
| No1CaNTeL | yeah, I was hoping I wouldn't hav eto force eject, I prefer to do it right instead of just hacking a way that just works | 18:35 |
| Flannel | themime: well, for future reference (and probably today too) stop reading HowToForge, and use the Ubuntu wiki intsead | 18:36 |
| No1CaNTeL | thanks again guys, gonna try this a few times, make sure I am set :P | 18:36 |
| Jay_Levitt | So I'm guessing my database files say "Hi! My locale is blank!" and Ubuntu says "My locale is en_us.UTF8!" and so the database protects me from me. | 18:36 |
| Flannel | Jay_Levitt: sounds like you'll need to migrate your DB from the old postgres to the new one. | 18:36 |
| Jay_Levitt | Flannel: Yep. Unfortunately, the only way to migrate Postgres (that I can tell) is to export it... which requires Postgres to be running.. | 18:37 |
| hyw | Can one help, I cant boot to windows only to ubuntu | 18:37 |
| Jay_Levitt | Flannel: Don't suppose you know how to change a system locale? I don't even know what determines that on Linux | 18:37 |
| Flannel | Jay_Levitt: hmm, You might ask in #postgresql, they're far more likely to be able to help than I am | 18:37 |
| Jay_Levitt | Flannel: Hah. They sent me over here, since locale is OS-level :) | 18:38 |
| jamewill_ | hyw, post your /etc/fstab file to pastebin | 18:38 |
| Jay_Levitt | I refuse to be transferred again!! Let me speak to a.. oh, wait, this is IRC. | 18:38 |
| Flannel | Jay_Levitt: They can't tell you how to migrate though? Locale is a subissue, I would think. Its just a symptom of the DB version mismatch. But, lets see.. | 18:38 |
| Jay_Levitt | Flannel: Oh, no, sorry - I'm using 8.1 in both cases | 18:38 |
| hyw | jamewill_: how do I type it sudo /etc/fstab? | 18:39 |
| Jay_Levitt | (I *did* build 8.3 by hand, but quickly uninstalled it when I realized I needed 8.1 to do the export.. so I installed the standard 8.1 packages) | 18:39 |
| danand_ | Jay_Levitt - you want to set the default locale on your linux box? | 18:39 |
| Jay_Levitt | danand_: Yep! | 18:39 |
| jamewill_ | hyw, in a terminal window type cat /etc/fstab | 18:39 |
| gyaresu | hyw: (without quotes) in a terminal: 'cat /etc/fstab' | 18:39 |
| danand_ | Jay_Levitt - hold on ... i'll pastebin a text note i wrote for myself ... | 18:40 |
| Jay_Levitt | Byooful. | 18:40 |
| pianoboy3333 | what's the name of the graphical xserver configure program? | 18:40 |
| hyw | thanks | 18:40 |
| gyaresu | pianoboy3333: for what card? | 18:40 |
| No1CaNTeL | sorry guys, one more q for yas :P is there a way to add more then one command line to a launcher?? I would like to the line you guys gave me followed by an eject command in one launcher if it is possible | 18:41 |
| acke | hey im installing ubuntu on my ps3 and im getting this error: (in swedish) error in archivemirror. ubuntu-archive not availible or not correct release file. what should i do? | 18:41 |
| Traveler3 | thanks flannel, i guess its a better version | 18:41 |
| pianoboy3333 | gyaresu: I have a nvidia, but it shouldn't matter... there was a new program to ubuntu in the current version which was a graphical way of configuring X, vs. dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 18:41 |
| Yancho | Anyone can please link me to a how to upgrade from 6.06 to a newer version please? I need 20.5 : xserver-xephyr: Depends: libc6 (>= 2.4-1) but 2.3.6-0ubuntu20.5 is to be installed | 18:41 |
| gyaresu | No1CaNTeL: && | 18:41 |
| saxofoner | anybody know how to change sound channels per application? Ideally, I'd have skype working through the headset while I output sound through the speakers | 18:42 |
| No1CaNTeL | sweet, so 'umount -l /media/cdrom0 && eject' | 18:42 |
| No1CaNTeL | ? | 18:42 |
| gyaresu | No1CaNTeL: "ls && pwd && fortune" | 18:42 |
| spiderfire | pianoboy3333: nvidia-settings | 18:42 |
| Benandro | No1CaNTeL: shell scripts. The power of a real OS ;-) | 18:42 |
| pianoboy3333 | I did something to X and now I can't get out of 800x600 | 18:42 |
| Jay_Levitt | saxofoner: My knowledge on that is about two years out of date, and more Mac-oriented, but: There was this thing called "JACK" that was a low-latency audio routing system | 18:42 |
| acke | My install process halts at 82% while configuring apt. can i discontinue the install application and have a working system anyways? | 18:42 |
| No1CaNTeL | yes :P I'm still learning though.. | 18:42 |
| gyaresu | saxofoner: skype has settings for that. | 18:42 |
| OonSuomesta | Could someone help me to change the keyboard driver to evdev? I tried this: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-409870.html but it didn't work | 18:43 |
| ace_ace121 | When i login, i get a dialog saying: HAL not started. I have to manually start it each time. how to start HAL at startup?? | 18:43 |
| ace_ace121 | i tried sudo update-rc.d hal defaults | 18:43 |
| ace_ace121 | which gives this message " System startup links for /etc/init.d/hal already exist" | 18:43 |
| Benandro | yeah! this one too! '&&' if you want the second command to be launch after the first one suceeded, or ';' if you want it to be launch whatever results the first one gave. | 18:43 |
| saxofoner | gyaresu: but I have a headset plugged in, I'd have to tell the OS that, say, audacious should still use the speakers | 18:43 |
| pianoboy3333 | brb... | 18:43 |
| OonSuomesta | k | 18:44 |
| gyaresu | saxofoner: two sound cards? (one onboard or whatever) | 18:44 |
| Flannel | Yancho: you can upgrade to 6.10 (and then to 7.04 then 7.10) or you can upgrade directly to 8.04. which, at the moment is still beta software, but if you wait for a month, will be final. | 18:44 |
| No1CaNTeL | so ; is like an OR? | 18:44 |
| danand_ | Jay_Levitt - http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60578/ hope that helps | 18:44 |
| saxofoner | gyaresu: no, just one... I think I'll give up for now | 18:44 |
| No1CaNTeL | or like a if? | 18:44 |
| Flannel | No1CaNTeL: No, it's "do this, then do this" || is an or (if the first one fails, do the second one) | 18:44 |
| OonSuomesta | Could someone help me to change the keyboard driver to evdev? I tried this: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-409870.html but it didn't work | 18:44 |
| Yancho | Flannel i just need to update so i make use of that package .. which is the ubuntu i need from those please? | 18:44 |

| No1CaNTeL | infact I have a use for them all ;) | 18:45 |
| danand_ | Jay_Levitt - np | 18:45 |
| fw0127 | why i cannot use system menu? | 18:45 |
| Flannel | Yancho: Xserver-xephyr is in dapper. Is there something wrong with that version? | 18:45 |
| Benandro | No1CaNTeL: ';' is just in pascal language | 18:45 |
| hyw | jamewill_: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60577/ | 18:46 |
| No1CaNTeL | I'm only familiar with python :P I havent really worked with pascal to know it :P | 18:46 |

| gyaresu | titon: Resize? imagemagick | 18:49 |
| Benandro | No1CaNTeL: IMO, a shell script is better. For example, create a 'bin' directory within your home dir. create a new file which'll countain all your 'commands'. First line is '#!/bin/sh'. Put this script within the desktop properties. Advantages: can be easily modified and used within other commands or within a shell ;-)) | 18:49 |
| titon | yea resize as in changng from a massive resolution to a smaler one in one command line for all pictures | 18:49 |

| gyaresu | not a gui | 18:50 |
| No1CaNTeL | Benandro: sounds like the right way to do it but for now I think a few more baby steps are in order, I do not want to get too far ahead of myself as that is where you start mucking things up more then learning :P | 18:50 |

| Flannel | acke: deb-src if you're planning on grabbing source from stuff. backports are actually a little dangerous to have in your sources.list | 18:54 |
| TaRDy | shows lo, eth0 and eth1 all with "no wireless extensions" after each | 18:54 |
| TaRDy | gyaresu, forgot to say your name: shows lo, eth0 and eth1 all with "no wireless extensions" after each | 18:54 |

| RobD | Stroganoff - well that kind of worked but I have a few modules / init scripts that fail to run - still looks pretty good to me! | 19:20 |

| boebi | how can i install a bootloader for ubuntu from the windows side? | 19:22 |
| boebi | grub always errors | 19:22 |
| gyaresu | OonSuomesta: Yeah but how. Does it just adjust your main volume or is it a second card. What's the exact model of this keyboard? | 19:22 |
| OonSuomesta | But there happened a strange thing: All the rest of the special buttons stopped working but the volume knob didnt | 19:22 |
| Stroganoff | RobD: you can disabe app armor with "sudo update-rc.d -f apparmor remove" | 19:23 |

| ar0n | you can download the grub bootloader iso and burn it off and use THAT as a boot loader isntall | 19:23 |
| RobD | Stroganoff - done | 19:23 |
| Stroganoff | i dont know about the other one | 19:23 |
| Benandro | boebi: I don't think so. windows is 'really' windows centric. Linux let you boot other OSes. IMO you have to make your multi-boot within Linux (grub, or lilo) | 19:23 |
| Stroganoff | theres always "bum" (boot up manager) | 19:23 |

| Cpudan80 | mademoisl: If so you should really ditch it and just mac filter it | 19:48 |
| HtooO | how do i start a second x-session? | 19:49 |
| Cpudan80 | No - mac filter is not secure - but it at least keeps the morons next door out | 19:49 |
| utarpradesh | where documentation? what is the mount option i use for mounting of iPod | 19:49 |
| internet_ | Stroganoff: Still does not work, how can I reset firefox? Maybe that is the problem. Before when I clicked on a link it would open up another small window asking me what app I wanted to use to download a file and I would say xchat. I told firefox to always use xchat but it no longer launches xchat like it used to | 19:49 |
| mademoisl | Cpudan80, I have no acces to the modem | 19:49 |
| gyaresu | gylan1979: You use a passphrase. cool. then the command would be 'iwconfig wlan0 key s:99io3i4io23' | 19:49 |
| mxartesano | Hola a todos! | 19:49 |
| GreenChai | gyaresu so i nano /etc/fstab | 19:49 |
| Cpudan80 | mademoisl: Ok.... but then how do you know the WEP key (or whatever it is) | 19:49 |
| gyaresu | gylan1979: the "s:" is to show the next bit is the password. | 19:49 |
| GreenChai | gyaresu in terminal whats next | 19:50 |
| utarpradesh | where do i find the mount option for mounting an ipod?? | 19:50 |
| mxartesano | alguien que hable español? | 19:50 |
| gyaresu | GreenChai: are you sure it mounts yet. i posted that you should try it first. did you? | 19:50 |
| GreenChai | gyaresu should i reinstall or remove ntfs??? and the settings | 19:50 |
| ompaul | !es | mxartesano | 19:50 |
| ubotu | mxartesano: En el canal donde esta solo se premite hablar ingles. Si busca ayuda en español por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es, allí obtendrá más ayuda. | 19:50 |
| duffbeer | ubuntu won't install with my 8800gt :( | 19:50 |
| GreenChai | gyaresu it mounted one hard drive the others none | 19:50 |
| gyaresu | GreenChai: don't worry about the native ntfs driver. | 19:50 |
| mademoisl | Cpudan80 its a friends computer thats connected with windows, i try to conect to the same network with her passwd on my ubuntu but it doesnt work | 19:50 |
| gyaresu | GreenChai: How many ntfs partitions do you have? | 19:51 |
| mxartesano | thanks | 19:51 |
| Benandro | spunkloaf: AFAIK, you have to add some options into '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'. I don't own a Radeon, but even my Intel 965 works ;) | 19:51 |
| Benandro | google is your friends | 19:51 |
| whileimhere | I have heard that Python is a really simple language to start off with and it has gui programming does anyone know about this? | 19:51 |
| Cpudan80 | mademoisl: Are you sure you have the encryption type set correctly and stuff? | 19:51 |
| internet_ | How can I reset firefox? Maybe that is the problem. Before when I clicked on a link it would open up another small window asking me what app I wanted to use to download a file and I would say xchat. I told firefox to always use xchat but it no longer launches xchat like it used to | 19:51 |
| Benandro | (or the Ubuntu doc wiki ;-)) | 19:51 |
| duffbeer | yeah whilei, it's a great starting language | 19:51 |
| gyaresu | whileimhere: Try the python channel | 19:51 |

| dshock | Hey, I've been wanting to install ubuntu on my pc, which currently has fedora - but when i insert the disk (ive used both x86 and 64 bit versions) i get no response for ubuntu install even on system reboot, how can i get it to install over fedora? | 19:51 |
| mademoisl | Cpudan80 how can i check that ? i use wlassistant | 19:51 |
| gyaresu | whileimhere: http://tryruby.hobix.com/ ruby too. | 19:52 |
| whileimhere | Ahh but of course it will nothing but how wonderful python is there that is why I asked here. | 19:52 |
| duffbeer | I would reccomend python before ruby | 19:52 |
| ka2 | python! | 19:52 |
| Cpudan80 | mademoisl: look on the windows computer and figure out what encryption it uses | 19:52 |
| duffbeer | I've learned both, and although python syntax is a little confusing at first, it's much more uniform than ruby | 19:52 |
| Cpudan80 | that's the easiest way | 19:52 |
| GreenChai | gyaresu in the program ntfs shows none but in my desktop view its only one harddrive showing | 19:52 |
| gyaresu | whileimhere: That's fine but see what happens. Best to take this to offtopic :) | 19:52 |
| internet_ | How do I reset firefox? | 19:52 |
| duffbeer | later on though, ruby has some awesome metaprogramming stuff that's loads of fun to learn and introduces some advanced techniques really well | 19:53 |
| GreenChai | gyaresu one is mounted | 19:53 |
| gylan1979 | gyaresu: thx, do i have to disable the gui setting 1st? then wht should i do next | 19:53 |
| dshock | I guess I'll assume noone here knows? lol | 19:53 |
| gyaresu | GreenChai: 'mount' | 19:53 |
| kafi | Quick question - I need to resize the /home partition, how would I go about doing this? | 19:53 |

| gyaresu | gylan1979: Well if you've correctly set it you should be able to 'iwconfig wlan0' and see that it's associated. | 19:53 |
| dshock | yes Flannel, indeed | 19:53 |
| Flannel | kafi: reboot to a liveCD and use gparted | 19:53 |
| dshock | I have it set as top priority | 19:54 |
| spunkloaf | Benandro: Got that file up in terminal, what options do I add and how? | 19:54 |
| kafi | ah, thanks | 19:54 |
| mademoisl | Cpudan80 its WPA encryption | 19:54 |
| Flannel | dshock: Did you burn it properly? (a bunch of files on the CD, as opposed to a single iso file) | 19:54 |
| duffbeer | can I get some help with getting ubuntu installed with my graphics card? | 19:54 |
| whileimhere | yep I see. | 19:54 |

| dshock | lol | 19:55 |
| Cpudan80 | mademoisl: ok - so set the settings in ubuntu to mirror the settings of her pc | 19:55 |
| mademoisl | Cpudan80 I have WEP on ubuntu, so i guess thats the problem, how can i change that ? | 19:55 |
| ka2 | duffbeer: what graphics card? | 19:55 |
| dshock | what do you mean? i made it the iso file i burnt that | 19:55 |

| Cpudan80 | mademoisl: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo is the page | 19:56 |
| Flannel | dshock: The iso file burns to a CD as a bunch of files (the iso is an image, you burn the contents of the image to the CD). Some people burn the actual iso file to the CD, so it has one file as its contents (it contains so-and-so.iso) | 19:56 |
| yigal | Masticore_: use cpufreq-set | 19:56 |
| Cpudan80 | not sure why ubotu didn't just hand you that one directly | 19:56 |
| gyaresu | gylan1979: I don't see private messages. | 19:56 |

| gyaresu | GreenChai: Well what other drives are you trying to connect to? | 19:57 |
| Cpudan80 | mademoisl: Start with the wpasupplicant step -- ignore the ones before it | 19:57 |
| dshock | i can check, one moment | 19:57 |
| duffbeer | lol, sorry. I've got a GeForce 8800GT that I just installed and works flawlessly with windows, but I can't get ubuntu installed with it. Even form the alt CD, I get the error PCI: failed to allocate mem resource at address [address] and I get kicked to an initramfs prompt.. apprently the gui doesn't want to work for me | 19:57 |

| keithclark | Cpudan80, yes, I've done that one already | 20:07 |
| nDuff | ubuntu, I'm very surprised that "cat /proc/partitions" is empty -- at least your CD-ROM drive (or whatever you're booting off of) should be there. | 20:07 |

| odysseybmx | I hit random keys and got an error that X couldn't be started | 21:26 |
| Buggeredfstab | clover2203: ok, that sounds like xorg.conf is thinking the Nvidia driver is installed already | 21:26 |
| odysseybmx | is there a key combo to try to start it? | 21:26 |
| jordilin | gullstad, go to Places, connect to server | 21:26 |
| saminthemiddle | musikgoat, yeah, Intel was very careful about that, I think them 64bit kernels can run 16 and 8 bit programs natively in a 64bit environment too! | 21:26 |
| saminthemiddle | musikgoat, why you would want to run an 8 bit program at all, dunno | 21:27 |
| clover2203 | buggeredfstab: so delete xorg.conf for misbehavin ?? :) just jokin.. what should i edit in that ? | 21:27 |
| Buggeredfstab | clover2203: go to a command prompt and type the following: gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 21:27 |

| nikrud | NW2190 you need to add that user to the audio group | 21:28 |
| bob_ | anyone know how to get ie to run in wine? | 21:28 |
| saminthemiddle | [BT]JaC, from your reports you're never going to get this thing fixed right; you should do a clean install. and while you are at it, check the disk and memory for errors | 21:28 |
| nikrud | NW2190 then log that user completely out and back in | 21:28 |
| odysseybmx | how can I boot into shell or whatever the CLI is? | 21:28 |
| NW2190 | nikrud: ok thanks, is the group called 'audio'? | 21:29 |
| Buggeredfstab | clover2203: once you get that up, let me know | 21:29 |

| rpj8 | Hey guys. I installed nvidia drivers from nvidia's site instead of through the repos. How do I compeltely remove the newly install nvidia drivers so that linux will use the older one? I'm pretty sure my kernel still thinks it's using the new one, so there's a version mismatch causing x to not start. | 21:30 |
| Deusdies | saminthemiddle, that means that there is solution, right? :S | 21:30 |
| gullstad | Hello. I was wondering how I can connect to a samba fileserver whit ubuntu? | 21:30 |
| Buggeredfstab | rpj8: you'll need to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 21:30 |
| saminthemiddle | Deusdies, no, I'm saying that support for TV cards is weak at best | 21:31 |
| saminthemiddle | Deusdies, are you sure that it is a supported model? what is the chipset? | 21:31 |
| musikgoat | nikrud: didn't you make op? do you know where i send an email for a problem on the ubuntu.com site? | 21:31 |
| rpj8 | Buggeredfstab: uh.. | 21:31 |
| Deusdies | saminthemiddle, but it used to work! Chipset is SAA7131 | 21:31 |
| Deusdies | Philips | 21:31 |
| rpj8 | Buggeredfstab: No. See, it's trying to use a different version of the nvidia kernel driver. | 21:31 |
| saminthemiddle | Deusdies, hmm, have you tried to manually modprobe the modules? | 21:31 |
| rpj8 | Buggeredfstab: I want to remove the newer version's nvidia module from my kernel and replace it with the older version | 21:31 |
| nikrud | musikgoat what problem? | 21:32 |
| spunk_loaf | noob here--how do I add a line to my /etc/apt/sources list? | 21:32 |
| nikrud | musikgoat and mini-op , by the way. | 21:32 |
| musikgoat | nikrud: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/countdown | 21:32 |
| Deusdies | saminthemiddle, yes. I've tried modprobe saa7134 card=65 tuner=54, no success | 21:32 |
| Buggeredfstab | rpj8: yeah. likely still looking for the driver named Nvidia - you want to roll it back to Nv | 21:32 |
| musikgoat | nikrud: well thats good in and of itself | 21:32 |
| [BT]JaC | ok thank you for all your help saminthemiddle and musikgoat and anyone else that helped. | 21:32 |
| Chris_____ | How can I install without my installer dropping me into BusyBox? | 21:32 |
| rpj8 | Buggeredfstab: No no, the nv is the open source one. I still want to use the proprietary nvidia drivers. but I DON'T want to use the new ones that I installed from the nvidia main site. | 21:32 |
| saminthemiddle | [BT]JaC, you're welcome | 21:33 |
| Chris_____ | I've tried noapic, and linux acpi=off... | 21:33 |

| Deusdies | Yup :S | 21:33 |
| Buggeredfstab | rpj8: ah well, your best bet would be to roll it to Nv, uninstall the current Nvidia, then install the preferred one. | 21:33 |
| mebaran151 | I'm doing a lot of python dev now | 21:34 |
| Arrick | nvmnd, got it | 21:34 |
| mebaran151 | and I was wondering what you guys would recc for a good python ide | 21:34 |
| rpj8 | Buggeredfstab: Yeah I did actually try that, but that didn't work. I asked in #nvidia and they gave me an answer: nvidia-installer --uninstall | 21:34 |
| nikrud | musikgoat heh. Not sure otherwise. Maybe when you see mneptok ask him | 21:34 |
| saminthemiddle | Deusdies, because LSPCI should show ALL PCI cards whether or not they are supported | 21:34 |
| mebaran151 | gedit is a little bit basic | 21:34 |
| rpj8 | Buggeredfstab: Thanks for the help, mate. | 21:34 |
| saminthemiddle | Deusdies, maybe you have a dead card, sometimes they break | 21:34 |
| musikgoat | nikrud: ok, thanks | 21:34 |
| Chris_____ | Why does my Gusty install drop me into Gusty? | 21:34 |
| Deusdies | No, it might be because I've changed a PCI slot a minute ago...I'll switch back to the old one now | 21:35 |

| propdude2000 | whileimhere: you can write a shell script to uncompress them and then recompress them as .zip | 21:39 |

| deuryte | Starnestommy: im outta here, thanks again, you guys r bug help | 21:59 |
| dark_harmonics | and add those parameters onto the string | 21:59 |
| gregory | morh: these are boot parameters for the installer that disable portions of hardware which _tend_ to cause problems | 21:59 |
| dark_harmonics | its not as hard as it sounds actually | 21:59 |
| Buggeredfstab | morh: I got a 64bit chip, but I run 32bit. That works great for me. But, I'd still give what gregory is saying a shot | 22:00 |
| morh | gregory so, where to put them ? | 22:00 |
| gregory | morh: in the installer scrolldown menu go to the entry where you can add those parameters. in hardy its f6, but i dont know about gutsy. people in channel will correct me | 22:01 |
| morh | Buggeredfstab: i've tried both Gutsys: for 64 and for 32bit, the only strange thing is: mandriva and knoppix are installing without any problems | 22:01 |
| morh | gregory: thanks a million, lad | 22:01 |
| Buggeredfstab | morh: sometimes that happens | 22:01 |
| gregory | morh: just try, nothing can break, sucess _not_ granted ;-) | 22:02 |

| Buggeredfstab | morh: exactly :) | 22:02 |

| sap | Hi, is there a method to update some of my favourite applications automatically , instead of having to build from source each time a new version is released (for example Pidgin , openoffice etc). ? | 22:04 |
| JoCo | guys i just installed ubuntu but when i try and enable the gfx driver i click 'enable' then it says "The software source for the package nvidia-glx-new is not enabled." my internet is connected and everything | 22:04 |
| Buggeredfstab | JoCo: you need to enable the repository in Synaptic | 22:04 |
| nikrud | sap if you're dedicated to running the latest right after it's released, ubuntu is not the right distro for you | 22:05 |
| JoCo | Buggeredfstab: how would i go about that? | 22:05 |
| obiwannekody | odysseybmx, if you have your /home directory on a different partion you can(if you are lazy like me) just do a clean install and re-use the /home directory | 22:05 |
| odysseybmx | it's on the same partition | 22:05 |
| yeonhoo_ | on "displayconfig-gtk" menu there is 1280x800 monitor but there is not option for 1280x800. there are inferior resolution.... | 22:05 |
| Buggeredfstab | JoCo: fire up Synaptic Package Manager | 22:05 |
| odysseybmx | I know there's a way to repair the installation | 22:05 |
| odysseybmx | but how do I go about it? | 22:05 |
| renfrew | is anyone running heron alpha 6? | 22:05 |
| tsukasa__ | renfrew, sup | 22:06 |
| Buggeredfstab | JoCo: Then go to Settings -> Repositories | 22:06 |
| sap | nikrud, hmm... i've been using ubuntu only for many months now , but maybe not right after its realeased , say a few months after it is released | 22:06 |
| JoCo | Buggeredfstab: ok then what | 22:06 |
| obiwannekody | odysseybmx, what is broken? (everything?) | 22:06 |
| renfrew | not having a problem as such.. just thinking of switching before the stable relaese.. are you running aplha 6? | 22:06 |
| gregory | renfrew: try #ubuntu+1 alpha is beta 1 now | 22:06 |
| odysseybmx | obiwannekody: X | 22:06 |
| JoCo | Buggeredfstab: check off all the boxes? | 22:06 |
| tsukasa__ | renfrew, im running beta | 22:06 |
| tsukasa__ | renfrew, it works fine on a direct installation, id hold off on wubi'ing it though | 22:07 |
| styrman | how do i turn off energy savings on monitor | 22:07 |
| renfrew | are you finding it prety stable? | 22:07 |
| styrman | i got laptop | 22:07 |
| tsukasa__ | renfrew, yeah | 22:07 |
| Buggeredfstab | JoCo: Make sure you have main, universe, restricted, and multiverse all checked | 22:07 |
| gregory | renfrew: _if_ hardware and ubuntu cooperate | 22:07 |
| Malik_ | hey everybody | 22:07 |
| renfrew | I've got the standard dsktop install.. gonna give it a go... can I just do a dist-upgrade? | 22:07 |
| ed_ed | styrman: Right click on the battery icon, and go into preferences. | 22:08 |
| tsukasa__ | renfrew, no, dont. if youve kept to convention just back up your home folder | 22:08 |
| Buggeredfstab | JoCo: after that, it'll ask you to restart your Package Manager. Then, once you do that, you should be able to install | 22:08 |
| JoCo | Buggeredfstab: Thank you sooooooo much your a great help I really appreciate it!!!!! | 22:08 |
| sap | Isn't there a way I can add a line to the repos for it to check for program updates when it is released (like I remember reading something similar for WINE ) ? | 22:08 |
| Malik_ | TuTUXG_: u there | 22:09 |
| tsukasa__ | renfrew, you can even make your home folder its own partition before the reinstall so you dont have to mess with recopying stuff | 22:09 |
| obiwannekody | odysseybmx, i'm sorry, i don't know enough about how ubuntu goes togeather to assist you there, although you could try editing your xorg.conf from the live cd | 22:09 |
| renfrew | home is a separate partition :).. I can always scrub '/' and go back to 7.10 if any problems with 8.04.. | 22:09 |
| Buggeredfstab | JoCo: You're welcome. Just doing my duty as a member of the Ubuntu community :) | 22:09 |
| gregory | sap: you can install a cron job | 22:09 |
| tsukasa__ | yup, there you go | 22:09 |
| nikrud | sap if someone provides the repos. You might want to look around ppa.launchpad.net . Those are *use at your own risk* , of course | 22:09 |
| SeanInSeattle | Hey all, any thoughts on how to change the CLI (command line interface) resolution from its default (really HUGE) to something that better fits my monitor / graphics card capabilities? | 22:10 |
| nikrud | SeanInSeattle sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup | 22:10 |
| SeanInSeattle | I tried using different kernel options in /boot/grub/menu.lst | 22:10 |
| sap | gregory, how do i install cron job? and what'll it do? | 22:10 |
| SeanInSeattle | nikrud: So, that's a gui-way of configuring the CLI? | 22:10 |
| dark_harmonics | no thats from the command seaninseattle | 22:10 |
| renfrew | thanks for the input tsukasa__ and gregory... I'm gonna give hardy a go... | 22:11 |
| nikrud | SeanInSeattle it's not a gui, it's an ncurses interface that will run on the console (near greenlake, by any chance?) | 22:11 |
| sap | nikrud, for example I'd like to update Pidgin messenger, so could that be possible with adding a line or something in the repo ? | 22:11 |
| srm | well, i now changed breezy to gutsy in the sources file and now crossing fingers while dist-upgrade is running :) | 22:11 |
| gregory | sap: cron job is a meta facility to program your computer to do certain things on a fixed time. like a sceduler-calender program | 22:11 |

| * dark_harmonics agrees with scunizi | 22:16 | |
| Scunizi | goose_, although on Dapper I had to compile it myself to get it working correctly. | 22:16 |
| druke | xZEXx, thats more a part of the remote login stuff, beyond vnc | 22:16 |
| gregory | Malik_: gnome | 22:16 |
| hanevar | i got font problem on ubuntu | 22:16 |
| Malik_ | but KDE looks better rite | 22:16 |
| sap | gregory, but can it update manually installed programs also like openoffice Pidgin etc? | 22:16 |
| hanevar | when i connect a to website | 22:16 |
| Scunizi | hanevar, that's a statement not a question | 22:16 |
| Malik_ | and has a beter apperences and effects | 22:16 |
| microwaver | Dang it, always get a hard lock when I try and run WoW.exe | 22:17 |
| mokkpr01 | can anybody tell me where i can get wubi for ubuntu 7.10.. | 22:17 |
| gregory | Malik_: so you can choose Kubuntu = KDE+ubuntu | 22:17 |
| Cew27 | hey all i have a problem i have cod 4 mounted on the desktop twice, one does nothing the other is the original mounting | 22:17 |
| Scunizi | !ask | hanevar | 22:17 |
| ubotu | hanevar: 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. :-) | 22:17 |
| nikrud | SeanInSeattle just accept the presets, you'll get to some character resolutions later. Not as nice as a framebuffer, but they work. | 22:17 |
| evand | mokkpr01: you can't. There was no 7.10 version. Your best bet is the version on the Hardy Beta CD. | 22:17 |
| gregory | sap: manually installed programs - no. thats a limitation of the update manager. it only watches for debs designed for ubuntu | 22:17 |
| schultza | i have a friend who is getting a message when installing sun-java6-jre and sun-java6-bin and other packages.... but gets cannot resolve depencies due to virtual packages. what are we missing? | 22:17 |
| hanevar | ok | 22:18 |
| niketas | Guys, what is the best choice of plugins to play avi/wmv/mpeg4 etc? | 22:18 |
| mokkpr01 | i did with the one inside Hardy Beta CD, the wubi 8.04 but it just picks up the Hardy version.. | 22:18 |
| Cew27 | hey all i have a problem i have cod 4 mounted on the desktop twice, one does nothing the other is the original mounting how can i fix it | 22:18 |
| liquid1033 | Scunizi: i can't find it, what package is it? | 22:18 |
| nikrud | !gutsysources | schultza (try this first) | 22:18 |
| ubotu | schultza (try this first): gutsysources is in System->Admin->Software Sources, enable (main) (universe) (restricted) and (multiverse) and disable the Cdrom on the Ubuntu Software tab. On the Updates tab, enable (gutsy-security) and (gutsy-updates). | 22:18 |
| Slart | niketas: I use vlc, no pluings required | 22:18 |
| evand | mokkpr01: why is that a problem? | 22:18 |
| sap | gregory, even if I had used "checkinstall" option when manually installing? | 22:18 |
| Scunizi | liquid1033, evtest | 22:18 |
| === peanuter is now known as pnut | ||
| mokkpr01 | i got an iso download of the 7.10 version, i was actually trying to install that.. | 22:18 |

| gregory | sap: which program are you talking about exactly? | 22:19 |
| dark_harmonics | niketas: i usually just do the sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 22:19 |
| evand | mokkpr01: trust me, you don't want to use any 7.10 version of Wubi that you find. | 22:19 |
| sap | gregory, Pidgin and openoffice :) | 22:19 |
| dark_harmonics | has java, flash, and codecs | 22:19 |
| styrman | ed_ed: dont have battery icon | 22:19 |
| SeanInSeattle | nikrud: does it take forever to reconfig the kernel and stuff after choosing all the appropriate options? | 22:19 |
| SeanInSeattle | nvrmind | 22:19 |
| niketas | Slart: is it a player or plugins pack? | 22:19 |
| kavelot | my video card (8086:2a02) it blacklisted to compiz... is there some alternative? | 22:19 |
| SeanInSeattle | it just finished.... I'm not patient. | 22:19 |
| tobi | I've got an atheros wlan card. | 22:19 |
| tobi | When I install linux-restricted-modules the wlan device comes up as expected. | 22:19 |
| tobi | The problem is: linux-restricted-modules installs nvidia-kernel-common | 22:19 |
| tobi | which makes my previously installed nvidia driver to stop working. | 22:19 |
| tobi | Is there a way to install linux-restricted-modules without nvidia-kernel-common | 22:19 |
| tobi | or to install the module ath_pci directly? | 22:19 |
| FloodBot3 | tobi: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 22:19 |
| niketas | Slart: afaic it's a player | 22:19 |
| Slart | niketas: it's a player | 22:19 |
| gregory | sap: sorry, which packet-manager-program are you talking about exactly? | 22:19 |
| Slart | !info vlc | niketas | 22:19 |
| ubotu | niketas: vlc (source: vlc): multimedia player and streamer. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.8.6.release.c-0ubuntu5.1 (gutsy), package size 1135 kB, installed size 3228 kB | 22:19 |
| Scunizi | liquid1033, sorry it's part of another package called dvb-utils | 22:20 |
| yeonhoo_ | i dont have modeline 1280x800 where can i find it?? | 22:20 |
| mokkpr01 | okay, thanx evand.. i have the hardy version on one of my laptops.. i was trying to put the gutsy gibbon on another.. | 22:20 |
| yeonhoo_ | i dont have modeline 1280x800 where can i find it?? for xorg 7.3 | 22:20 |

| DeadLy_sp | i need print some info of df -h but for root info ? | 22:20 |
| dark_harmonics | kavelot: if you think that it is supported, then do a sudo gedit /usr/bin/compiz and add it to the whitelist | 22:20 |
| niketas | Slart: thanks! | 22:20 |
| mysterycool | any good c/c++ compiler for linux? | 22:20 |
| hanevar | is it really the official chatroom | 22:20 |
| liquid1033 | Scunizi: just found it.. thnx | 22:20 |
| gregory | sap: yes | 22:20 |
| hanevar | ??? | 22:20 |
| druke | mysterycool, gcc | 22:20 |
| sap | gregory, k | 22:20 |
| Slart | mysterycool: the gnu compiler | 22:20 |
| evand | mokkpr01: understandable, but the 7.10 version was never finished. So I imagine the Hardy version is more stable than that now. | 22:20 |
| hanevar | hellloop | 22:20 |
| Cew27 | hey all i have a problem i have cod 4 mounted on the desktop twice, one does nothing the other is the original mounting how can i fix it | 22:21 |
| evand | mokkpr01: best of luck going forward | 22:21 |
| dark_harmonics | kavelot: sometimes you need to do this for the FGLRX driver (ati) | 22:21 |
| home_ | !patience | hanevar | 22:21 |
| ubotu | hanevar: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 22:21 |
| mysterycool | druke: a compiler that is in gui plz? | 22:21 |
| mokkpr01 | okay, evand i get the picture now; i thought so looking at the sourceforge repository.. | 22:21 |
| ed_ed | styrman: Plug in your charger and it should appear. | 22:21 |
| tobi | I've got an atheros wlan card. When I install linux-restricted-modules the wlan device comes up as expected. The problem is: linux-restricted-modules installs nvidia-kernel-common which makes my previously installed nvidia driver stop working. Is there a way to install linux-restricted-modules without nvidia-kernel-common or to install the module ath_pci directly? | 22:21 |
| JoCo_ | eyy guys im having another severe problem, just finished the install of ubuntu and enabled the graphics driver but when i restart the loading bar loads then the screen goes idle and black and nothing happens | 22:21 |
| mokkpr01 | thanks evand, i think i will just go ahead with the hardy version then. | 22:21 |
| ompaul | !bootoptions | JoCo_ | 22:21 |
| ubotu | JoCo_: For a list and explanation on some of the boot options, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions | 22:22 |
| dark_harmonics | tobi: did you try madwifi? | 22:22 |
| druke | mysterycool, you want an ide, not a compiler anjuta is good | 22:22 |
| hanevar | when i connect to a website like chinese website etc ... the page not display correctly | 22:22 |
| Malik_ | o man i dk wats going on...all my files r gone in ubuntu | 22:22 |
| dark_harmonics | maybe you should lay down the wifi driver | 22:22 |
| hanevar | when i connect to a website like chinese website etc ... the page not display correctly | 22:22 |
| Malik_ | and aim gettign so many messages | 22:22 |
| home_ | Wow, it's even busier than last time here | 22:22 |
| liquid1033 | Scunizi: similar to xev | 22:22 |
| sylvain | helo | 22:22 |
| hanevar | hwo to display it correctly | 22:22 |
| tobi | i installed madwifi-tools if u mean that | 22:22 |
| home_ | !intel graphics | 22:22 |
| Slart | hanevar: you might want to explain a bit more about your problem.. be specific.. what is wrong.. what did you expect.. what results did you find when googling for a solution.. in your case.. url of page that didn't work would be one thing | 22:22 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about intel graphics - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 22:22 |
| evand | mokkpr01: you're welcome :) | 22:22 |
| dark_harmonics | and then install the nvidia driver on top of that -> tobi | 22:22 |
| sap | well gtg get a dose of tremulous :D | 22:22 |
| sap | thanks all | 22:22 |
| Scunizi | liquid1033, yes.. however xev couldn't see the codes from the keyboard I was trying to use evtest did. | 22:23 |
| gravemind | hey - system monitor says my network is doing things -- is there a tool I can download to find out what exactly it's doing? | 22:23 |
| dark_harmonics | i have an nvidia card and madwifi working with no problems on a macbook pro santarosa | 22:23 |
| druke | mysterycool, under add/remove applications in the applications menu, goto programming and type in c++ anjuta is under there, there are also other apps if you feel adventurous | 22:23 |
| hanevar | i just ask where is location to put the font file | 22:23 |
| gregory | sap: i cant find this option in the manpage and via ./program --help. generally: i recommend just sticking with the debian repos. they also provide fast updates. other then that you would have to use a different distro, which will not be as comfortable as ubuntu regarding user experience | 22:23 |
| hanevar | like in window s ? | 22:23 |
| tobi | i already tried to install the nvidia driver(downloaded from nvidia) after installing nvidia-kernel-common, but it only works correctly when i have no nvidia-kernel-common installed | 22:24 |
| dark_harmonics | tobi are you using the drivers from nvidia for your display? | 22:24 |
| liquid1033 | Scunizi: i think the problem isn't the assignment but that 3 keys are "activated" at the same time | 22:24 |
| frost0 | hello all, i just messed with a partition, and when i boot into ubuntu, the screen looks a little stretched and the font is mushed...what is wrong/ | 22:24 |
| druke | mysterycool, though, are you doing things for school or other very small scale projects? | 22:24 |
| frost0 | ? | 22:24 |
| pushpop | When I boot up my Ubuntu box I get a Grub error 22, anyone know how to resolve that? | 22:24 |
| sap | gregory, hmm.. ok. well thanks for your efforts; will then stick to manual updates for now I guess , if necessary . | 22:24 |
| gregory | sap: sorry, i meant stick with the ubuntu repos | 22:24 |
| dark_harmonics | tobi you could try finding the windows driver and using ndiswrapper to install it | 22:24 |
| sap | gregory, k | 22:25 |
| Cew27 | can anyone tell me why my pc is mounting my media twice | 22:25 |
| Scunizi | liquid1033, is it like a shift keystroke function? | 22:25 |
| dark_harmonics | i do reccomend the NVIDIA custom drivers so i think you did that right -> tobi | 22:25 |
| mysterycool | druke: ? er, my own projects, but what does that matter? | 22:25 |
| liquid1033 | Scunizi: yes | 22:25 |
| tobi | ye i know, but i wanted to try it without ndiwsrapper | 22:25 |
| Slart | pushpop: did you change anything to your box? added a hard drive? repartioned a drive? anything else? | 22:25 |
| liquid1033 | Scunizi: control_l shift_l and d | 22:25 |
| pushpop | Slart: I may have changed the sata port on the mobo of a hd thats it! | 22:25 |
| schultza | thanks, he didnt have two of them checked out of the four... other screens were fine | 22:26 |
| johnny2008 | is latest Ubuntu out yet? | 22:26 |
| dark_harmonics | if you have already laid down madwifi and the NVIDIA driver correctly i am at a loss bud :( | 22:26 |
| tobi | my nvidia driver(downloaded directly from nvidia) are working ... until i install the nvidia-kernel-common package :-) | 22:26 |
| === wobblywu is now known as chickbot | ||
| dark_harmonics | do you need that package? | 22:26 |
| johnny2008 | !latest version | 22:26 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about latest version - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 22:26 |
| druke | mysterycool, well you may want to just beef up gedit alot, thats what I use for college and such, if you care for a link | 22:26 |
| dark_harmonics | is that part of the download from them? tobi | 22:26 |
| stephen | hello | 22:26 |
| Slart | pushpop: I'm not sure about that error code.. but I think you may have changed the order of the drives.. so drive 2 isn't drive 2 any more.. and then grub doesn't find the boot files.. | 22:27 |
| Scunizi | liquid1033, same issue on my keyboard.. it had an Fn button.. push one button individually at a time to find the scan code for each one. then do the combo and compare the output. if you're lucky you'll discover a new number. that will typically be it.. also hitting the combo then type dmesg in a terminal SOMETIME will reveal it. | 22:27 |
| gravemind | johnny2008: it' | 22:27 |
| gravemind | it's coming out in april | 22:27 |
| tobi | no, its part of the linux-restricted-modules package | 22:27 |
| pushpop | Slart: how would I resolve that | 22:27 |
| johnny2008 | gravemind: it? | 22:27 |
| kbrooks | ummm | 22:27 |
| kbrooks | queestion | 22:27 |
| johnny2008 | gravemind: what happened to March release? | 22:27 |
| dark_harmonics | ok maybe what you really need is to find out what part of the linux-restricted moduels you actually need | 22:27 |
| dark_harmonics | and then install only that | 22:28 |
| === acx_ is now known as acx | ||
| gravemind | johnny2008: hardy is 8.04-- it comes out in april | 22:28 |

| === CaNeS992 is now known as CaNeS | ||
| dark_harmonics | i dont have have it on any of my computers | 22:28 |
| Slart | pushpop: there are many ways.. you can reinstall grub.. or just change the boot drive number setting (not sure exactly how to do this) | 22:28 |
| liquid1033 | Scunizi: i try | 22:28 |
| kbrooks | i see a plug icon in my taskbar not a battery icon - gnome power manager - and i want a battery icon | 22:28 |
| johnny2008 | gravemind: what happened to March release? | 22:28 |
| kbrooks | when i click on it it shows only "ac power"? | 22:28 |
| Slart | pushpop: here's one guide.. it might work https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows | 22:28 |
| druke | mysterycool, http://ca.rroll.net/2008/02/05/ruby-on-rails-development-with-gedit/ is a guide for ruby onr ails but it works just as well for toher progamming languages | 22:28 |
| kbrooks | when i click on it it shows only "ac power". | 22:28 |
| Scunizi | kbrooks, is the laptop plugged in? | 22:28 |
| dark_harmonics | maybe install that and then remove the nvidia package that is screwing you up? tobi | 22:29 |
| dark_harmonics | just guessing really | 22:29 |
| kbrooks | Scunizi, um? | 22:29 |
| kbrooks | Scunizi, why ask? | 22:29 |
| Scunizi | kbrooks, is it a laptop? if it is and it's plugged in then it's letting you know it's plugged in.. | 22:29 |
| tobi | when i remove the nvidia-kernel-common package, the linux-restricted-drivers package is removed too | 22:30 |
| kbrooks | Scunizi, ummmm, it is a laptop. when it is plugged in, it shows the battery icon, with a very small plug in the battery icon. | 22:30 |
| kbrooks | Scunizi, i mean normally | 22:30 |
| Scunizi | kbrooks, oh .. ok.. sorry I don't do laptops..don't really know the power manager. | 22:31 |

| distatica | great, thank you | 22:33 |
| Scunizi | distatica, although if they are use to excel typically the OOo version is easier to move to. Not that gnumeric is hard. they all have slight differences. | 22:33 |

| Slart | cookie: I think there is a file called .bashrc in your home folder.. it might be useful for this | 22:34 |
| obiwannekody | odysseybmx, ie sudo mkdir /hda && sudo mount /dev/hda1 /hda would mount it there | 22:34 |
| liquid1033 | Scunizi: is there any file, in which a key can be assigned to a couple of keycodes | 22:34 |
| cookie | thanks artenius, thanks Slart | 22:35 |
| Slart | cookie: the motd file might be a better choice though | 22:35 |
| clover2203 | *pretty lame this is .. but can i store files in my 'root file system' partition or i need to create a fat partition for that ?* | 22:35 |
| Scunizi | distatica, if you are looking for lighter weight stuff then gnumeric | 22:35 |
| distatica | ok | 22:35 |
| Scunizi | liquid1033, I'm not sure.. I just started diving into this type of thing in the last couple of days... it's frustrating! | 22:35 |
| Slart | clover2203: you can store files in your root file system.. but you'll be a happier person at the end of the day if you store them in your home folder | 22:36 |

| dark_Harmonics | clover2203 its hard drive space that your computer uses as an overflow when it needs extra ram | 22:40 |

| dark_Harmonics | better to have it then to run out of memory clover2203 | 22:40 |

| ubotu | LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 23:04 |
| Scoldog | Pelo, It's not a problem, just more of an annoyance. I love Ubuntu but hate the default brown theme | 23:04 |
| tritium | sean2000: the short answer is that you'll need the libdvdcss2 package from the medibuntu repositories. Also, read the URLs I had ubotu paste for you above. | 23:04 |
| Pelo | sean2000, you can play with it a bit , mine isn't so brown anymore , just a bit more orangy , I kind of like orange, | 23:05 |

| tritium | sean2000: no, I gave you a URL to read. | 23:06 |
| Jaymac | then just don't start gdm | 23:06 |
| Pelo | sean2000, because of copyright restrictions in some countries, the ubuntu team cannot include dvd support right out of the box , so you need to install a few pacakges to get it going, just follow the instrucions in the links we gave you , if you get stuck at one of them just ask us how to do that one and we'll help yo9u out | 23:06 |

| Anderson | Pelo, what do I use for the boot device emulation.. i.e. bootable floppy (I changed back to old nick) | 23:08 |
| sean2000 | ubotu, thank you..... I'm reading now | 23:08 |
| Jaymac | gew1, you could install boot-up manager (bum) and deselect gdm | 23:08 |
| Pelo | Malik_, I just think it will be simpler, plug the cdrom back in , boot hte live cd and copy your /home to a seperate partitons, you can then mount the /home where it is when you install | 23:08 |
| druid_ | hello just testing | 23:08 |
| tritium | sean2000: ubotu is a bot. I had him send you those URLs. | 23:08 |
| underdawg | how do I diagnose why my network just stopped working on my ubuntu all of the sudden (using active windows computer on network now) | 23:08 |
| EugZol_ | hi all | 23:08 |
| Jaymac | gew1, the command to start gdm from a commandline is sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start | 23:08 |
| gew1 | Jaymac: thank u! | 23:08 |
| panicbyte | hey could someone explain what the heck "Internet Time" means on the gnome clock applet... where it displays some number like "@6.03" | 23:08 |
| Pelo | Anderson, what was your original nick ? | 23:08 |
| CopyWriter | hi EugZol_ | 23:08 |
| Malik_ | Pelo: do wat with home ???? | 23:08 |
| dryder | good morning ever1 | 23:09 |
| Malik_ | Pelo: and wat is home? | 23:09 |
| sean2000 | tritium, ok thanks | 23:09 |
| Anderson | Pelo, jon_ | 23:09 |
| CRINGO | How do you search for a file in your filesystem if you don't know where it is? What command? | 23:09 |
| [agatha] | is there any way to format an ntfs partition to ext3 without losing some stuff?? | 23:09 |
| Jaymac | Malik_, /home is your personal directory | 23:09 |
| Malik_ | Pelo: wat does thats hav to do with reinstallation | 23:09 |
| CRINGO | [agatha], when you format, it wipes it clean | 23:09 |
| Pelo | Malik_, your /home folder, create a new partiton on your hdd, copy the /home folder from your current ubuntu installation to that new partiton , then reinstall ubuntu on it's original location , that way you won't lose any data or settings | 23:09 |
| wsv123456 | How do I mount ipod for gtkpod? | 23:09 |
| Anderson | Pelo, when I burn my dvd iso image for linux, it will automagically be bootable? | 23:09 |
| [T]ank | anyone here able to help me with pppd in ubuntu gutsy? | 23:10 |
| tritium | CRINGO: which and whereis are two you can try. | 23:10 |
| Jaymac | CRINGO, you could try whereis or locate | 23:10 |
| sensae | I can't get my X server to work with ati or radeon drivers. It's complaining "No matching device section for instance (PCI:1:0:1)" | 23:10 |
| [agatha] | that is a great idea... i want to delete the whole windows up... but there are some things i wouldnt like to lose, yet they are not really important... i can get them again | 23:10 |
| [T]ank | i am connecting a verizon evdo card using kppp and it connects for about 1.5 minutes and then it dies with an error status 15 | 23:10 |
| CRINGO | thank you tritium and Jaymac | 23:10 |
| Pelo | Anderson, when you burn an iso you get an exact copy of the original cd the iso was made from , no need to select anyother details | 23:10 |
| sensae | My device section is set to PCI:1:0:0. If I change it to 1:0:1 it complains it can't find 1:0:0 | 23:10 |
| Malik_ | Pelo: its okay i didn't hav any important data | 23:10 |
| dryder | verbose question about my install requirements - may I ask it? | 23:10 |
| [T]ank | i have read that there are bugs in ppp but have not found a way around this. | 23:10 |
| [agatha] | just wondering if i convert the partition from ntfs to ext3 with gparted will delete the things, i think the change from ntfs to fat does not delete the files. what a mess | 23:10 |
| [agatha] | -.- | 23:10 |
| EugZol_ | I want to play Laser Age game on wine. But when I do 'wine LaserAge.exe' I get error: 'Beatnik did not initialize, please make sure that a Beatnik Soundbank has been loaded properly'. There are some .RMF files in the game folder and so it seems wine could load proper codec for them. Could somebody help me with this issue? | 23:11 |
| Pelo | Malik_, your settings for aps are also in the /home fodler but if you don'T care , just clean install the regular way | 23:11 |
| Anderson | Pelo, gotcha, I must have been looking at a different project earlier or something. | 23:11 |
| cookie | HELLO AGAIn | 23:11 |
| EugZol_ | *wine could not load | 23:11 |
| cookie | I have a big problem | 23:11 |
| Flannel | EugZol_: Have you tried #winehq? They're more apt with wine than we are. | 23:11 |
| Jaymac | [agatha], i'm pretty sure changing a partition from ntfs to ext3 will completely format it | 23:11 |
| Pelo | [agatha], all data will be lost | 23:11 |
| sensae | Could anyone help me with my X server / ATI card? | 23:11 |
| EugZol_ | Flannel: I will | 23:11 |
| Jaymac | EugZol_, try http://appdb.winehq.org | 23:11 |
| cookie | In the log files...it only tells me if a user logged in...if he tried a wrong password or if he failed to guess a username(sshd) | 23:12 |
| Slart | panicbyte: might be this one http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swatch_Internet_Time | 23:12 |
| Anderson | If I was using ubuntu, and I switch to fedora, will my home partition still be mountable? | 23:12 |
| Flannel | cookie: yes | 23:12 |
| cookie | is there any way to find out what passwords he actually tried? | 23:12 |
| Flannel | er, Anderson, yes | 23:12 |
| Flannel | cookie: No, that's a security risk | 23:12 |
| fr500 | arghh | 23:12 |
| [agatha] | hmm ok so before making it i need to move a few things... but just in case so later i save the questions, i open gparted and unmount the partition and change to ext3 and that's all? it's dev/sda1 will it be a problem? | 23:12 |
| fr500 | where is the sdlmame executable located | 23:12 |
| [agatha] | what a mess -.- | 23:12 |
| fr500 | ? | 23:12 |
| Anderson | Flannel, Thanks | 23:12 |
| Pelo | Anderson, yes but there might be some issues if the aps you use are not the same versions | 23:12 |
| vasyl | hello, can someone tell me if gparted that comes on ubuntu live cd can resize ntfs partitions without data lossÉ | 23:12 |
| cookie | Flannel: Why? I want to know what passwords my user tried to login with(me being an admin) | 23:13 |
| panicbyte | slart, thanks | 23:13 |
| Pelo | vasyl, yes it cna but defrag and backup first just to be safe | 23:13 |
| [agatha] | vasyl, resize them probably yes, i did already, but not convert them :P | 23:13 |
| CopyWriter | this place is great | 23:13 |
| Slart | vasyl: most of the time it can.. but backup your data first | 23:13 |
| panicbyte | slart, and you are correct, thats the one | 23:13 |
| Pelo | CopyWriter, we try our best | 23:13 |
| TaRDy | wsv123456, i may have a solution to my networking problem from earlier, (testing now) | 23:13 |
| * CopyWriter absorbing knowledge | 23:13 | |
| vasyl | Slart: well it a new pc so nothing to backup :D thanks | 23:13 |
| Flannel | cookie: because other users would be the same, (you'd be able to see their failed password attempts) and that would give you hints as to their password (here, or otherwise). | 23:13 |
| martyn | Alright everyone. Can anyone point me to a howto or similar that will help me obtain an IP address from my router. Using Gutsy and RT2500 driver with Ndiswrapper (thought the provided RT2500 might be the cause. Anyway - card is running well and can see all the Wireless NW in the area - but cannot obtain an IP address. Any ideas? | 23:14 |
| [agatha] | and your best is really good Pelo :) keep on the good job you all, i'm gonna mess with my partitions a bit :P | 23:14 |
| CopyWriter | i'm gonna reformat using ubuntu right now | 23:14 |
| Anderson | martyn, do you have dhcp enabled on the router? | 23:14 |
| CopyWriter | tried kubuntu but didn't like kde | 23:14 |
| * Pelo pumps more info into CopyWriter 's brain in the hope of triggering some kind of helpfull regurgitation | 23:14 | |
| napii | Hey all. Could some one help me with getting emails to work please. Have made several attempts at setting up postfix but not getting very far. Read a load of setup guides to see about the options and different ways, and went with virtual users & domains (best matches my setup) | 23:14 |
| napii | I followed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixVirtualMailBoxClamSmtpHowto - but when I test it by sending an email, it just gets queued, and the directories don't get created. | 23:14 |
| napii | Tried making the directories myself then sending another email, but again just gets queued. Not entirely sure what to try next. Theres no errors or anything getting in the logs (apart from postfix-hast dictionary package) | 23:14 |
| cookie | Flannel: Exactly. So could it be possible to modify the sshd logging system to give passwords too? | 23:14 |
| martyn | Anderson - Yes. DHCP - plenty of 'free' addresses. (using 3 out of 20). | 23:14 |
| Anderson | martyn, did you run dhclient? | 23:15 |
| CopyWriter | anytime i boot it gives me out of range monitor error | 23:15 |
| Malik_ | Pelo: alrite aim reinstalling it after it installs can u help me configure my wirless internet | 23:15 |
| CopyWriter | but works when gnome loads, any ideas | 23:15 |
| Flannel | cookie: I would hope not. Since that's really a bad idea. What do you hope to gain from doing so? | 23:15 |
| martyn | Anderson - No - will give that a blast. Thought it might be WPA issue but same problem with no security. | 23:15 |
| dryder | here goes --- 5 HDD system - 2 sata, 3 ide. My OS' are each on a different drive - I installed Feisty (and earlier versions) by unplugging all other drives to force grub onto the feist hdd and not interfere with the mbr. I don't want multiple OS grub/mbr or chainloaders. I have a default boot (Feisty) but can choose via F12 which disk to boot from. Useful for Windows which runs what Ubuntu can't - Garmin GPS and a few media apps. I want | 23:15 |
| katsu_mooo | anyone have gnome-settings-manager issues after updating to all newest packages? | 23:15 |
| atlantis | anyone know of a good 64bit filesharing app.... limewire/frostwire no go. emule too slow. | 23:16 |
| Anderson | martyn, it could be because I think ndiswrapper only supports wep | 23:16 |
| tritium | katsu_mooo: they have not been updated recently | 23:16 |
| cookie | Flannel: Well, for the past 2 days...some fuckers try to connect to my box with users like admin, root and fluffy(wtf?). they connect to me from firewalls and switches | 23:16 |
| Pelo | CopyWriter, look at the lable on the back of your monitor , fine the horizontal refresh rate , often listed as just H , note it , the edit the xorg.conf file , find the horiz sync value and extend the range so your montiors value is in the range | 23:16 |
| martyn | Anderson - same problem with no security. | 23:16 |
| cookie | Flannel: all the ip's come from italy | 23:16 |
| danand_ | martyn - why ndiswrapper? Think that card is supported - see http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page | 23:16 |
| Anderson | martyn, try dhclient with out security. | 23:16 |
| katsu_mooo | tritium: damn.. i am not having any luck fixing it -- i just went straight from alpha 6 to beta | 23:16 |
| CopyWriter | thanks Pelo | 23:16 |
| * Pelo ' s brain will explode | 23:16 | |
| tritium | katsu_mooo: you need to be asking in #ubuntu+1, then. | 23:17 |
| Flannel | cookie: knowing the passwords they're trying won't really help. You should look into denyhosts | 23:17 |
| katsu_mooo | atlantis: mldonkey / mlnet is the best -- you must tune it a little to make sure your main firewall forwards your ports properly tho | 23:17 |
| tritium | katsu_mooo: hardy isn't released (or supported in this channel) quite yet. | 23:17 |
| Jaymac | i've got an annoying network-manager bug - connecting to a 64/128 Hex WEP network, it connects fine first time, then fails immediately the next time it tries to connect - only solution is to click Connect to Other Network, and then re-enter the information - rather annoying | 23:17 |
| sensae | I'm trying to switch to the ati drivers and X dies with "no screen found" | 23:17 |
| danand_ | martyn - also see the output of modprobe -l | grep rt2 | 23:17 |
| atlantis | thks | 23:17 |
| [agatha] | ok... another one... http://img297.imageshack.us/my.php?image=whereisitvj6.png can anyone workout what i've messed for the reboot and turn off options to disappear?? | 23:17 |
| katsu_mooo | tritium: thank you :) | 23:17 |
| martyn | danand - yes, card is supported. I "upgraded" from Xubuntu when all was well - when using Ndiswrapper. As Gutsy has the drivers included thought that that could be a problem.... | 23:17 |
| cookie | Flannel: Yes. And leave them a nice little message. GET THE F*** OUT | 23:17 |

| odysseybmx | err crap | 23:33 |
| odysseybmx | it looks like it's empty | 23:33 |
| gyaresu | kakoonia: Like mini usb does but a bit different. F | 23:33 |
| jonalegend | bobesponja: so your 5th partition would be actually hda0,4 | 23:34 |
| xjohnthomasx | does anyone have any ideas ?? i can't see my programs in the application drop down menu. the application menu doesn't drop down! the places and system menu appear fine, though...??? | 23:34 |
| danand_ | odysseybmx - :( | 23:34 |
| receptor | thats really weird, no killall in a unix system? | 23:34 |
| odysseybmx | where are the FF bookmarks stored? | 23:34 |
| JoCo | gyaresu: installed, i dunno everything was working when it was first installed but now im having more problems with ubuntu than i would have hoped for, black screen after splash screen, dl'ing grapchics card ruins things and now network | 23:34 |
| odysseybmx | if they aren't in .mozilla | 23:34 |
| JoCo | it just doesnt list any | 23:34 |
| JoCo | gyaresu: and i just tried rebooting to see if that was the problem but now im getting a black screen right after the boot (again) | 23:34 |
| bobesponja | ok thanx jonalegend | 23:35 |
| nikrud | xjohnthomasx try alt-f2 killall gnome-panel , should cause it to reload/reset | 23:35 |
| JoCo | so i guess i dont need the network help lol | 23:35 |
| ere4si | help with iptables rule to limit clients to 2 connections per 300 seconds please | 23:35 |
| kakoonia | gyaresu: yeye!! i just googled it.. i got it.. theres a number written on it (1394) well.. damn i dont have the frickin' wire here.. | 23:35 |
| xjohnthomasx | nikrud: i've cleared the panels. same. i tried a new account. same. i tried reinstalling everything gnome related.. same thing.. | 23:35 |
| gyaresu | JoCo: :( that's annoying. Is it a base install or have you enabled repos? | 23:35 |
| gyaresu | kakoonia: At least that's a start :) | 23:35 |
| kakoonia | i thought it would work with my usb cable | 23:36 |
| kakoonia | ye | 23:36 |
| xjohnthomasx | nikrud: when i go to control center, and click main menu there, it processes, and then no configuration applet appears... ?? | 23:36 |
| nikrud | xjohnthomasx try clearing out ~/.local/share/applications | 23:36 |
| odysseybmx | danand_: I CD'd to it and it didn't open in filebrowser this time | 23:36 |
| JoCo | gyaresu: i enabled repos anfter the fresh install, the repos got my nvidia driver and ever since i dled that driver and restarted ive been having sooo many problems | 23:36 |
| danny_ | when I try to login to root, if I am even doing this right by type su it will not take my password says authentication failure. Wouldnt it be the same password I login with? | 23:36 |
| MoKor_899 | Once you recompile your kernel, what is the best way to re-install the nvidia drivers? On ubuntu 7.10 you cannot change the run level to 3. What other options are there? | 23:36 |
| gyaresu | JoCo: Since the nvidia driver? | 23:36 |
| srm | *doh* looks like I totally screwed up. When trying to upgrade from breezy I'm now stuck with the following error everytime I try to invoke apt-get: "E: Malformed 3rd word in the status line" "E: Problem with MergeList /var/lib/dpkg/status" ... | 23:36 |
| JoCo | gyaresu: yea | 23:36 |
| nikrud | !sudo | danny_ | 23:36 |
| ubotu | danny_: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. | 23:36 |
| xjohnthomasx | nikrud: will that really have anything, if i already tried reinstalling everything gnome related? | 23:37 |
| nikrud | danny_ the root account is disabled by default | 23:37 |
| odysseybmx | danand_: how would I copy the files in the folder to my flash drive? | 23:37 |
| danny_ | how do i enable it? | 23:37 |
| nikrud | xjohnthomasx it's where any custom menu stuff would be placed. Just the first place to look | 23:37 |
| nikrud | danny_ sudo -i for root terminal | 23:37 |
| gyaresu | JoCo: Well if that's all you've done different. You could manually install the latest nvidia driver (with the knowledge that it'll break things when you upgrade to hoary). But if it gets you going then a reinstall for the new release is a good thing anyway. | 23:38 |
| danand_ | odysseybmx - have you plugged in your flash drive? | 23:38 |
| odysseybmx | yeah | 23:38 |
| xjohnthomasx | xjohnthomasx: i havent modified anything custom. it was all freshly reinstalled last night, to try to alleviate this problem.. didnt work.. | 23:38 |
| danny_ | k thanks that worked so how do runa file in root now jsut sh then file name? | 23:38 |
| odysseybmx | well, more or less I need to open the bookmarks file | 23:38 |
| danny_ | dir | 23:38 |
| odysseybmx | would it be bookmarks.html? | 23:38 |
| danand_ | odysseybmx - do you know where its mounted - ie /media/....? | 23:38 |
| CopyWriter | lol, ok i changed the horizontal and vertical sync but now it doesn't go farther than running local boot script | 23:38 |
| nikrud | danny_ yes, you are in the equivalent of su - | 23:38 |
| JoCo | gyaresu: wait so should i reinstall ubuntu? | 23:38 |
| odysseybmx | danand_: no, how do I check? | 23:38 |
| gyaresu | srm: from breezy? You would be very well advised to do a backup and fressh install. | 23:38 |
| CopyWriter | i love playing around with this | 23:38 |
| LjL-Temp | srm, erm, i think i really should suggest installing a more recent version from scratch, rather than upgrading from breezy. breezy has been unsupported for a long time | 23:39 |
| odysseybmx | danand_: I know what it is now | 23:39 |
| srm | gyaresu: I know, but I wanted to give it a try without the ISO | 23:39 |
| danand_ | odysseybmx - k | 23:39 |
| Sonderblade | what does mdadm do and do you need it? | 23:39 |

| dryder | may I re-ask, pls? I want to install another ubuntu on a separate hdd without interfering with any other grubs or mbr - but I don't want to unpolug drives to do it? | 23:39 |
| danny_ | argh, i ran sh instal.sh and it just gives me areadme type file is that normal? IM installing the divxlabs for linux | 23:39 |
| LjL-Temp | srm: i think i'd declare the try failed :) | 23:39 |
| danand_ | odysseybmx - then cp * /path/to/flash/disk | 23:39 |
| gyaresu | Sonderblade: RAID programme. | 23:39 |
| kakoonia | gyaresu : Thanks budd.. but just one more little question, lets say i got the firewire cable and all is pluged.. what should i do to make it show/download content? | 23:39 |
| srm | LjL-Temp: :) *leave no man behind!* | 23:40 |
| gyaresu | JoCo: You should pastebin the /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 23:40 |
| nikrud | danny_ it would really depend on what the .sh file does. | 23:40 |
| amenado | dryder-> possible, go and install -- just select the different partition to mount as / | 23:40 |
| odysseybmx | danand_: the flash drive is two words with a space, and I get an error when I try to copy to it | 23:40 |
| gyaresu | kakoonia: Well you would probably run 'kino' | 23:40 |
| JoCo | gyaresu: how the hell would i go about that lol? | 23:40 |
| danny_ | well it said to run it in root and it would install the codec | 23:40 |
| gyaresu | kakoonia: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Firewire | 23:40 |
| danny_ | maybe it did let me see if its in acidrip | 23:41 |
| kakoonia | ok! Thanks dude.. ;) | 23:41 |
| gyaresu | kakoonia: start there. get cable. come back with questions :) | 23:41 |

| pimplife | hey how can i change screen resolution in live cd so i can install ubuntu | 23:41 |
| oriez | how can i restore the default for the x config | 23:42 |
| gyaresu | JoCo: install programme pastebinit (if you have a connection) | 23:42 |
| JoCo | gyaresu: alright i think i have a start it might be like a 64-bit version that is screwing things up and i might reinstall 32 bit and see if that works | 23:42 |
| gyaresu | underdawg: best to keep questions in channel as you'll get more help. is it wired or wireless? | 23:42 |
| oriez | i change it and now i see green screen when i'm trying to boot ubuntu | 23:43 |
| gyaresu | JoCo: 32bit is the way to go. 64 just doesn't have accross the board support and really doesn't do anything better. | 23:43 |
| danny_ | nope didnt put it in there unless livdv is the same as divx? | 23:43 |

| pimplife | how can i change screen resolution in live cd so i can install ubuntu | 23:43 |
| themime | what is this asking in laymans terms -> "Continue installing libc-client without Maildir support" | 23:44 |
| JoCo | gyaresu: how do i install 32 bit version, do i reDL the iso or is there an option on the livecd? | 23:44 |
| rahduke | please help, big problems: after a ctrl+alt+bksp i lost access to xserver, I get the following error when trying to boot ""Could not start Xserver due to some install error, contact system admin restart when problem corrected"..... so far i have tried to reconfigure xserver via dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg..... needless to say it didnt work | 23:44 |
| gyaresu | pimplife: You can always try the 'alternate' ubuntu install disk. It's the same but doesn't get you to a 'desktop' session so no gfx problems. | 23:44 |
| rahduke | im on a live cd right now | 23:44 |

| pimplife | which is that | 23:45 |
| nikrud | danny_ I don't know anything about that app. Since it's not in ubuntu you'd probably have better luck finding out about it on it's site or irc channel if it has one | 23:45 |
| rahduke | can u giv me instructions please? | 23:45 |
| rahduke | im on a live cd and im pretty new to linux | 23:45 |

| nikrud | themime maildir is very nice, each mail is in it's own file in real directories. Makes it easy to manipulate with tools other than your mail program. | 23:51 |
| underdawg | gyaresu: did you get that last one? | 23:51 |
| gyaresu | underdawg: k. well let's see if the router is talking to you. let's ask for an ip address 'sudo dhclient eth1' (if it's on eth1 it may be eth0) | 23:51 |

| shouden | Hey all, is anyone able to give me some tips on getting my USB headset working? I have it working on 7.10 but not 8.04. It records fine, but audio output still comes out my laptop speakers. | 23:52 |
| pimplife | how can i install ubuntu without having to use the live cd | 23:52 |
| mosty | i am having trouble booting the 7.10 live cd on my old duron machine, it boots and goes ok for a while, but when it's almost about to start X (i think- i can't see logs or anything...) it reboots and starts again. how can i find out why it's rebooting? | 23:52 |
| nikrud | themime could be it's a brain dead howto or program. That is, it depends on the context | 23:52 |
| hydrology | I'm going to describe a problem in the shortest manner as i know off :P) | 23:52 |
| hydrology | Used hardware: http://www.lex.com.tw:8080/product/CV700A.htm | 23:52 |
| hydrology | Setup: Diskless running of modified slackware 11.0. NFS mounted root on NAS trough nfs v3 TCP | 23:52 |
| igorgue | SupaFly: I had to install bash-complation | 23:52 |
| igorgue | :) | 23:52 |
| hydrology | Problem: cron does not execute any of it's jobs when it gets executed from the rc scripts during init 3. Whenever it get's 'restarted' by hand after init finished (so after bootup) cron does execute the jobs as it should do, but only after you manually restart it. | 23:52 |
| igorgue | thanks anyway | 23:52 |
| SupaFly | ah ok | 23:52 |
| hydrology | Tested software: fcron, dillons cron (dcron) and ucrond. | 23:52 |
| themime | hmm ok, thanks | 23:52 |
| hydrology | Okay, Does anybody have any clue? :) | 23:52 |
| nikrud | themime I keep all my mail in a maildir, and access it via imap. I can use any client and they see the same mail, I can move/rename folders on the command line and the clients respect it ... all kinds of nice things come from maildirs | 23:53 |
| underdawg | gyaresu: what do you want to know? | 23:53 |
| pimplife | were is the alternate ubuntu install disk | 23:53 |
| rahduke | gyaresu: are you checking that log out? | 23:54 |
| gyaresu | underdawg: did you run the 'sudo dhclient eth0' ? | 23:54 |
| underdawg | gyaresu: yes | 23:54 |
| gyaresu | rahduke: Yeah. No errors. Does the screen go completely black after startup? | 23:54 |
| underdawg | gyaresu: it said that there's no dhcpoffers received | 23:54 |
| rahduke | yes | 23:54 |
