[00:02] <stefg> Odd-rationale: one thing coming to my mind is: there's a hidden file  /media/.hal-mtab that might contain outdated info. Unmount the drive and delete that file
[00:02] <kindofabuzz> whats up with grub2?  anyone messed with it?
[00:02] <coincoin169> have you any troubleshooting with the sound in hardy heron beta ?
[00:02] <Odd-rationale> stefg: will look. Reboot after?

[00:03] <Canaris_> hey
[00:04] <chris710> aeratic>sorry^^
[00:04] <Canaris_> I am currently running Ubuntu 7.10 alpha and I was wondering If installing Ubuntu Server (7.10) would give me the possibility to end up with a more minimal system after the installation?
[00:04] <chris710> aetaric
[00:04] <Canaris_> oops...forget the 'alpha'
[00:04] <fk7_se> anyone here using google adsense
[00:04] <Odd-rationale> stefg: brb
[00:05]  * Canaris_ does
[00:05] <stefg> !minimal | Canaris_
[00:05] <ubotu> Canaris_: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[00:05] <kindofabuzz> Canaris_: server edition is ubuntu without the GUI
[00:05] <kindofabuzz> plus some more stuff can be added at install
[00:05] <aetaric> its all good...run cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep mouse
[00:05] <Canaris_> well I cant use the minimal cd, because i only have a wifi connection (WPA) available
[00:05] <Canaris_> so netinstall CDs are pretty much out of the question
[00:06] <Canaris_> fk7_se, what do u wanna know abbuot adsense?
[00:06] <subsume> I used the ubuntu upgrade instructions from Feisty to Gusty and now my computer starts up and only shows a blinking underscore.
[00:06] <fk7_se> well one thing i want to know is can you put it on a googlepage page
[00:06] <chris710> aetaric>grep mouse?
[00:06] <fk7_se> and is it worth it?
[00:06] <Canaris_> googlepage page??
[00:07] <stefg> Canaris_: you can still use a repo on CD...
[00:07] <aetaric> | grep mouse
[00:07] <Odd-rationale> stefg: nope
[00:07] <Stroganoff> subsume: do you see the grub "loading.." screen beforehand?
[00:07] <stefg> !install | Canaris_
[00:07] <ubotu> Canaris_: Ubuntu can be installed in a lot of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall. Don't want to use a CD? Try http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate

[00:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about suspend - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[00:11] <pantaloon> duh, i'm talking about a single file larger than 4gb
[00:12] <Stroganoff> kindofabuzz: yep, me. i'm using ibm thinkpad though.

[00:13] <c-ron> chris710, what did it say?
[00:14] <chris710> Driver   "mouse"
[00:14] <kindofabuzz> is there a linux utility or command that will list my motherboard make and model?
[00:14] <stefg> kindofabuzz: usually this is caused by restricted drivers misbehaving, or half-broken acpi (which is mended by dirty hacks in other OS's). but the gutsy kernel isn't the best one anyway, so wait for hardy
[00:14] <aetaric> chris710: hmmmmm..let him help you i haven't the slightest idea...did you restart?
[00:14] <eisenhower> how do i move something in root?
[00:15] <kindofabuzz> stefg: thanks
[00:15] <eisenhower> well to /etc   keeps saying i dont have permission
[00:15] <gail> Is there a way to check if a wifi link is up and running from the command line in ubuntu?
[00:15] <chris710> aetaric>how can i restart(do you wanna say reboot?
[00:15] <kindofabuzz> eisenhower: mv or cp
[00:15] <eisenhower> ty
[00:15] <FearedBliss> how do i say "end of disk" in part : mkpart primary reiserfs 1 <end>
[00:15] <zcat[1]> !sudo | eisenhower
[00:15] <ubotu> eisenhower: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information.
[00:16] <eisenhower> nono kindofabuzz: ansered my question. =)
[00:16] <aetaric> chris710: run sudo init 6 or sudo reboot or sudo shutdown -r now
[00:16] <kindofabuzz> mv is move cp is copy

[00:22] <bune> what kind
[00:23] <amias> wantE17style, whos ? how ?
[00:23] <wantE17style> my ubuntu lamp server is being pinged and syn flooded constantly
[00:23] <bune> oh
[00:23] <bune> whod you piss off
[00:23] <Odd-rationale> stefg: Found the solution in the forums. New I should have gone there first but I was kind of lazy... :P
[00:23] <Odd-rationale> *knew
[00:23] <wantE17style> it's a tor/freenet server
[00:24] <aetaric> wantE17style: sounds like a DDOS attack
[00:24] <stefg> Odd-rationale: so solve the mystery ... for the log
[00:24] <bune> maybe someone on tor decided to flood you?
[00:24] <wantE17style> are syn flood attacks /pings of death directed attacks?
[00:24] <wantE17style> aetaric yes I agree
[00:24] <wantE17style> yes but why?
[00:24] <amias> wantE17style, they can happen , is it one particular ip or lots ?
[00:24] <pimplife> i cant get an internet connection to my router
[00:24] <wantE17style> is it some general attack by a repressive government?
[00:24] <pantaloon> Stroganoff, I installed K3b and it says "It is not possible to add files bigger than 4GB"
[00:24] <pimplife> help
[00:24] <bune> maybe a botnet owner
[00:24] <wantE17style> only one
[00:24] <bune> oh
[00:24] <bune> then no
[00:24] <Odd-rationale> stefg: Let me pull that link up again...
[00:25] <amias> wantE17style,  what does the server do , where is it hosted ?
[00:25] <Stroganoff> pantaloon: that seems to be an UDF limitation
[00:25] <Strife89> When I run certain programs, the application "taskbar" says it's starting the program, but soon after, it stops. This happens especially with games, so I assume that Ubuntu is stopping them from running because it fears the graphic load will slow it down too much. Any suggestions to force it to let the app run anyway?
[00:25] <fredmv> running into a weird problem here guys...
[00:25] <wantE17style> it's only a Tor/Freenet server currently
[00:25] <stefg> pantaloon: thats a restriction of ISO9660 .. you need UDF for files > 4 GB
[00:25] <fredmv> I'm running 7.10/gutsy, booted into a supposed Xfce session, but it's acting like gnome (context menus, etc.).
[00:25] <pantaloon> how do I burn UDF in ubuntu?
[00:25] <fredmv> first time I've ever seen this happen
[00:26] <Stroganoff> pantaloon: dont mind my last remark
[00:26] <aetaric> SYN packet flooding is a tale tale sign of DDOS attacks. setup shorewall or another firewall to drop packets from an IP after X number of SYN packets are recieved
[00:26] <wantE17style> does ubuntu linux protect automatically against syn floods?
[00:26] <pimplife> i cant get an internet connection
[00:26] <stefg> pantaloon: check the k3b howto... i never used that, but i'm pretty confident that k3b can do it
[00:26] <Strife89> By the way, I'm using an NVidia TNT2 graphics card, and I'm using restricted drivers for it.
[00:26] <astheglorious> hey guys
[00:26] <Stroganoff> pantaloon: http://answers.google.com/answers/threadview?id=414797
[00:26] <wantE17style> ok , I use firestarter
[00:26] <Stroganoff> use google, pantaloon
[00:26] <stefg> !k3b | pantaloon
[00:26] <ubotu> pantaloon: k3b is a feature-rich and user-friendly burning application for KDE (and, as all KDE applications, works fine on GNOME). For a guide, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/K3BHowto
[00:26] <Strife89>  I tried running some of the programs in an XFE session. They won't even try to start.
[00:26] <astheglorious> ndiswrapper is choking on 64 bit drivers
[00:26] <kindofabuzz> i use a router =)
[00:27] <Strife89> Some programs I try to run SHOULDN'T even slow things sown much. Anyone heard of Cave Story (2D platform-style game)?
[00:27] <wantE17style> but won't I stop tor and freenet from working if I tell the firewall to block after a certain number of syn packets??
[00:27] <Strife89> The program I'm trying to run has a configuration program (which is separate). In addition, I have a copy of the Windows version. The Windows config runs under Wine, but when I start the main program, it quits a second later.
[00:27] <honkkopf> HELLO i am just instaling vmware server and i dont know how i accept the konfiguration through the eula could you help me?
[00:27] <aetaric> no you want it to block 1 ip the source
[00:28] <aetaric> i'll find you a site
[00:28] <Strife89> Back to my question: I assume Ubuntu stops programs when it thinks they'll tax my system. Can I force it to let them run anyway?
[00:28] <pimplife> i cant get an internet connection?
[00:28] <Stroganoff> honkkopf: is this an ubuntu issue?
[00:28] <stefg> honkkopf: #vmware
[00:28] <honkkopf> yes
[00:28] <wantE17style> but I read that spoofing ip addresses is common for pings of death and syn floods

[00:29] <wantE17style> there is no option in firestarter for stopping syn floods :( does it do it as a standard function??
[00:29] <stefg> wantE17style: you might consider joining #ubuntu-server or some channel specialized in server security. This isn't exactly an ubuntu support issue

[00:36] <subsume> stefg: If I boot into debug mode I can get to a login prompt but if I attempt to login it hangs forever
[00:36] <aetaric> it should drop packets for the offending ip addresses
[00:36] <wantE17style> ok.......thank you
[00:37] <stefg> subsume: so i take it that your xserver died. ATI card ?
[00:37] <aetaric> if you need more help im sure the people in #ubuntu-server know iptables pretty well you could ask them
[00:37] <subsume> stefg: ...no, because debug mode just goes to prompt....
[00:37] <kindofabuzz> wantE17style: just get a good router and don't worry about it =)

[00:38] <kindofabuzz> replace the firmware with dd-wrt and you'll be alright
[00:38] <stefg> subsume: yeah... so you got a new kernel, but probably the restricted driver failed to upgrade. Can you boot with the old kernel?
[00:38] <wantE17style> kindofabuzz: good routers are expensive :P I am searching for a cisco router on ebay

[00:38] <wantE17style> no my cheap router is awful :P
[00:38] <subsume> stefg: sure but how do i get those restricted drivers back?
[00:38] <kindofabuzz> $60 is expensive?
[00:39] <subsume> stefg: they must be available because a clean desktop install of ubuntu installs the card just fine
[00:39] <RockmanDensetsu> Hello

[00:40] <kindofabuzz> dd-wrt is the best thing i've ever done to my router
[00:40] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> RxDx, nvidia-glx-new
[00:40] <wantE17style> it seems great

[00:41] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> !envy | RxDx
[00:41] <ubotu> RxDx: envy is an unsupported tool to install newer versions of binary video drivers than provided by the official repositories. Use at your own risk, and remember that the latest version is not necessarily the "best". See « /msg ubotu binarydriver »
[00:41] <wantE17style> :P no - I am a newbie to linux :P what is IOS? :-/
[00:41] <askand> Hi! I dont really know how this works..but on the ALSA site one can read about the Creative Labs X-Fi this: "Card delivered to developers. Completely new architecture. Creative actively preventing support due to no datasheets being released to ALSA developers. Reverse engineering work not started due to lack of time.". However the OSS-driver do support this card, cant ALSA use the OSS-code?
[00:42] <aetaric> IOS is the cisco systems firmware...it is cli
[00:42] <subsume> stefg i don't think its restricted because an identical hardware machine doesn't have the wifi card in the device manager
[00:42] <subsume> not as restricted anyway
[00:42] <subsume> how can i tell what the card is?
[00:42] <wantE17style> ohhh , I planned to install dd-wrt on the cisco router :P
[00:42] <rsk> askand: kinda like saying, can't IE use FF code?
[00:42] <wantE17style> can I do that?
[00:42] <stefg> subsume: lspci | grep VGA
[00:42] <aetaric> no GUI there and you have to buy a router online off the cisco site to get IOS
[00:42] <astheglorious> hello, a little help
[00:42] <aetaric> no
[00:42] <michealPW> I volunteered to deploy Ubuntu v7.10 on my friend's Audio Recording computer. I was hoping to get 2 audio cards working,
[00:42] <aetaric> IOS is the only thing that will run
[00:42] <wantE17style> oh, damn :(
[00:42] <michealPW> Which I have, hehe... My problem is Cakewalk SONAR and WINE:/
[00:43] <subsume> stefg oh thaty
[00:43] <moogmusic> when i suspend ubuntu 7.10 at my laptop, i dont have a network connection anymore after resuming from suspend. wny help ?
[00:43] <subsume> stefg: i thought we were talking about the wifi card?
[00:43] <askand> rsk: hmm..but isnt there a difference between drivers and programs?
[00:43] <michealPW> Has anyone had success? Anyone know of good alternatives or advice to SONAR with Ubuntu?
[00:43] <wantE17style> there are lots of cisco routers for sale on ebay tho :-/ but no software included
[00:43] <kindofabuzz> wantE17style: http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Supported_Devices
[00:43] <michealPW> askand: Technically, wouldn't drivers be considered programs or "software" ?:)
[00:43] <mad_max02> can any of you guys tell me does Cedega work as good or better or wors than wine ??
[00:43] <subsume> stefg its nVidia Corporation NV6 Vanta/Vanta LT
[00:43] <subsume> rev 15
[00:43] <stefg> subsume: no... obviously your x server (the part which does the gui) doesn't work
[00:44] <wantE17style> kindofabuzz - I checked already - my router isn't supported :(
[00:44] <subsume> stefg well the wifi stopped working too
[00:44] <askand> michealPW: yea..ok I see
[00:44] <stefg> subsume: so did you use automatix/envy ?
[00:44] <FearedBliss> does debian etch 4.0r3 have WPA support for Original Airport out of the box ?
[00:45] <FearedBliss> I know 8.04 alpha 6 has it
[00:45] <michealPW> askand: Basically, drivers are software libraries that expose functions, which the operating system uses to interact with your hardware at the kernel level, IIRC.
[00:45] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> !debian FearedBliss
[00:45] <subsume> stefg: no idea what you are talking about
[00:45] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> !debian | FearedBliss
[00:45] <ubotu> FearedBliss: Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu!
[00:46] <FearedBliss> [Hardy]TuTUXG, I already know that its based on it.. the question is does debian have WPA support.. Ubuntu tends to go custom kernel on everyone
[00:46] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> #debian?
[00:46] <FearedBliss> lets c
[00:47] <stefg> subsume: try 'sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r) && sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-legacy' then 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start'
[00:48] <subsume> stefg: that computer is tanked man. no wifi. no eth0. no way to apt-get
[00:48] <subsume> man/woman =)
[00:48] <stefg> subsume: ah yes... forgaot
[00:48] <subsume> stefg: its weird because I updated another machine just fine
[00:48] <subsume> (not just fine, its can't do 1200x)
[00:49] <michealPW> Perhaps I could use my friends system to test the latest build of Ubuntu Studio, then:/
[00:49] <stefg> subsume: so check in /etc/X11/xorg.conf if the driver is set to 'nvidia'. change it to 'nv' temporarily and see if that gives you a gui for starters
[00:49] <michealPW> I really hope I can get SONAR to work, or at least find something of comparable quality, else I'll have a real hard time preaching the Ubuntu gospel:(
[00:50] <laptor> hello
[00:50] <flick> after i suspend to ram, my eth0 connection does not wake up - did anybody face this problem?
[00:50] <laptor> what's the different between ubuntu dvd and ubuntu cd?
[00:50] <fa1sal> hello
[00:50] <aetaric> laptor: one is a cd the other is a dvd
[00:51] <flick> laptor, dvd contains more packages, which you have to download (if you want to install) if you have a cd
[00:51] <meteor> witam
[00:51] <Stroganoff> flick: does it wake up with sudo if-up
[00:51] <barslow> is it possible to make a .iso bootable backup of exactly how i have ubuntu setup right now?
[00:51] <barslow> including all the packages
[00:51] <subsume> stefg: do I need to restart...?
[00:51] <subsume> stefg: it was nvidia
[00:51] <flick> Stroganoff, nope - it says unknown device eth0=eth0
[00:51] <[dcr]> How can I set a user to automatically login again and remove the password?
[00:51] <laptor> good
[00:51] <stefg> subsume: just 'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart'
[00:52] <laptor> on ubuntu dvd kde package
[00:52] <fa1sal> استفسر زياده
[00:52] <laptor> or just gnome
[00:52] <subsume> stefg: bingo
[00:52] <[Hardy]TuTUXG> fa1sal, what?
[00:52] <subsume> stefg: why not just stick with nv?
[00:52] <frank23> Windows installer royally screwed up my partition table. Please read here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60815/   I just want to know if rewriting the partition table as I suggest will work and if there is anything I should watch out for.  Right now I'm in a ubuntu livecd.
[00:53] <fa1sal> no thing
[00:53] <aetaric> i don't even know which channel to send him too
[00:53] <subsume> stefg: oh wait. login is hanging. =)
[00:53] <barslow> is it possible to make a .iso bootable backup of exactly how i have ubuntu setup right now?
[00:53] <subsume> 'failed to initialize HAL'
[00:53] <stefg> subsume: something with the restricted modules went wrong. so you are now on the (non 3D) free nvidia driver.
[00:53] <flick> Stroganoff, it actually says "Ignoring unknown interface eth0=eth0"
[00:53] <laptor> one more on ubuntu dvd kde package or just gnome

[00:54] <jedi-alex> hello, im a newbie and im tring for over 4 hours to install ubuntu 7.10 (stable) but without results... im booting with cd and choosing installation but it always freezes (same with v8 beta)

[00:55] <subsume> stefg: someway i can upgrade and default to these restricted drivers?
[00:55] <jedi-alex> it seems that there is an incompatibility issue but how can i know the reason?
[00:55] <kindofabuzz> jedi-alex: try the alternate cd
[00:55] <FullMon-T> help.
[00:55] <kindofabuzz> !alternate
[00:55] <ubotu> The Alternate CD is a classical text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD.  Look for the alternate checkbox on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal
[00:55] <jedi-alex> it doesnt give any message, just freezing at the logo and the progress bar
[00:55] <FullMon-T> I need help building my message.lst
[00:55] <astheglorious> with wpa supplicant, how do you specify a hex key?
[00:55] <madman91> hello all
[00:55] <stefg> subsume: yeah... gutsy can be a pita. why not take a neat backup, do a fresh hardy beta install, (hardy works exceptionally well already) and just skip gutsy? It's not worth the effort with all the troubleshootung, to be honest. gutsy is/was a dud
[00:56] <Schmeiz> hello
[00:56] <jedi-alex> kindofabuzz thanks man
[00:56] <amortvigil> is there a ogg to mp3 converter wich converts all files in specified directories?
[00:56] <madman91> is it possible to set SSH up in such a way that certain users can use passwords to login, but others can only use ssh-keys?
[00:56] <laptor> falsal he ask about ubuntu dvd
[00:56] <laptor> kde package on ubuntu dvd
[00:56] <laptor> or no
[00:56] <fa1sal> والله مدري وش تقول
[00:57] <danand> jedi-alex - try editing the kernel options at the boot screen - press f6 and remove "quiet splash" - then boot. You should see where and what is causing the install or boot to hang
[00:57] <michealPW> laptor: I don't believe KDE is on the Ubuntu DVD, unless you mean the Kubuntu DVD. It's in the repositories, however.
[00:57] <michealPW> Are they called repositories? I mean to say, you can install it with the Synaptic Package Manager:)
[00:57] <kindofabuzz> amortvigil: check out http://sox.sourceforge.net/
[00:57] <michealPW> 8giggles8
[00:57] <subsume> stefg: will hardy play well with a gusty server?
[00:58] <subsume> stefg: I'm in a 40 computer lab. i can move one to hardy and see how it goes.
thanks
[00:58] <subsume> stefg: can I dist-upgrade to gusty?
[00:58] <michealPW> laptor: Honestly, though.. I had bad experiences with KDE:(
[00:58] <subsume> errrr hardy
[00:58] <GullyFoyle> I would feel like such a wanker if I used wmii. Please help me get past this.
[00:58] <michealPW> laptor: I mean, a lot of them... Straight out the box there were a number of issues that plagued Kubuntu v7.10 for me, including missing MIME types.
[00:58] <subsume> stefg: this machine is still hanging at promtp.
[00:59] <laptor> no I mean ubuntu
[00:59] <stefg> subsume: just to get things straight: From which version did you upgrade to what new version?
[00:59] <laptor> but now I understand you
[00:59] <subsume> stefg: feisty to gusty
[00:59] <laptor> thanks
[00:59] <subsume> whole lab is feisty
[00:59] <nich0s> Does anyone have a reccomendation for a p2p client for ubuntu
[00:59] <subsume> some of the lab is edubuntu
[01:00] <danand> subsume - can you check your logs to see whats causing the hang? look in /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[01:00] <kindofabuzz> nich0s: i just use limewire and for totrrents i use deluge
[01:00] <kindofabuzz> torrents*
[01:00] <michealPW> Laptor: Don't let me discourage you from *trying* KDE, I mean, it's got a lot to brag about, I love Kate (KDE Advanced Text Editor.)
[01:00] <michealPW> I miss it on GNOME:)
[01:00] <subsume> danand: how do you know its X? it happens right after GRUB
[01:00] <danand> subsume - or /var/log/gdm ...
[01:00] <michealPW> Other than that... KDE re-invents the GNOME wheel, with a "K", in my personal opinion.
[01:00] <nich0s> kindofabuzz: THanks :)
[01:01] <costi> hi everyone, whats the name of this nice OSX looking taskbar?
[01:01] <stefg> subsume: ok... so you ended in desaster (like many others). you can spend 6 hours in troubleshooting now, or 2 hours for taking a backup of your data, wiping the disk, install hardy beta from scratch, and restore your personal files
[01:01] <GullyFoyle> I would use Limewire if I were a knob-gobbling tool
[01:01] <michealPW> haha GullyFoyle.
[01:01] <kindofabuzz> GullyFoyle: ?
[01:01] <x1250> If I want to use the new beta ubuntu release, do I have to replace "gutsy" by "hardy" (in sources.list) ?
[01:01] <danand> subsume - oh.. sorry ... kinda confused between eveyones probs then.. :)
[01:01] <subsume> stefg: no backup necessary
[01:01] <subsume> wow. i see error output now
[01:01] <michealPW> LimeWire's good at finding search results, if you're searching for malware.
[01:01] <x1250> is it hardy the new upcoming release?
[01:01] <subsume> device mapper linear dm-linearr device lookup failed
[01:02] <subsume> its just spamming that
[01:02] <GullyFoyle> oops did I say that out loud?
[01:02] <michealPW> Other than that, it struggles to find anything, in my experience.
[01:02] <costi> x1250: yes
[01:02] <stefg> subsume: so just scrap that... not worth the effort. take a fresh hardy install from scratch
[01:02] <subsume> stefg: can i do it from the command line or must i get disk?
[01:02] <x1250> costi: ok, thanks
[01:02] <ThreeFingerPete> by hand i edited xorg.conf to add a resolution to my monitor(it supports it). however, i cannot get it to show up in preferences. how do i cause it to reload that list?
[01:02] <stefg> subsume: you need a disk. you don't upgrade, you completly reinstall
[01:03] <kindofabuzz> GullyFoyle: are you calling me a tool?
[01:03] <subsume> stefg ok
[01:03] <c-ron> maynards-girl, tool fan?
[01:03] <maynards-girl> c-rom, yep
[01:03] <c-ron> rawk
[01:04] <ThreeFingerPete> it seems using control alt backspace doesnt reset my xorg
[01:04] <kindofabuzz> tool is the only "metal" band i can listen to
[01:04] <GullyFoyle> kindofabuzz: sorry, I forgot which channel I was in. No offence intended.

[01:07] <c-ron> *for that
[01:07] <subsume> stefg: i'm sorry i meant Hardy!
[01:07] <cost1> RockmanDensetsu: did you look if the configuration on alsamixer is right?
[01:07] <michealPW> c-ron: I don't like Windows, and me and Microsoft don't get along anymore.
[01:07] <subsume> stefg: is there a lightweight install of hardy?
[01:07] <atg_> ok man, this is it, I'm reinstalling windows :(
[01:07] <stefg> subsume: what do mean by lightweight?
[01:07] <RockmanDensetsu> cost1> yeas, alsa mixer its right, i try with all configurations
[01:07] <jrgp> how well does compiz work with dual monitors under hardy? I'm using a gfc 6600 with the restricted drivers.
[01:07] <stefg> subsume: what machine/hardware and what purpose?
[01:07] <cost1> RockmanDensetsu: perhaps a hardware error?
[01:08] <michealPW> c-ron: I'd like to deploy Ubuntu on my close friends home audio studio. I've gotten the hardware setup (2 audio cards) and such,
[01:08] <subsume> stefg: apt-get install edubuntu-addon-light gives you a smaller version of edubuntu
[01:08] <michealPW> But SONAR's a non-starter so far, aheuheuH!~
[01:08] <skavez> would connecting an ubuntu server box via ethernet to my mac give ubuntu internet access? i'm considering installing ubuntu server on an extra pc
[01:08] <cost1> RockmanDensetsu: does it work on a other os?
[01:08] <RockmanDensetsu> cost1>in the audio settings the error its with the pipeline

[01:09] <cost1> RockmanDensetsu:  sorry, i do not know what to do )-;
[01:09] <michealPW> subsume: Seriously, have you looked at Gobuntu for that? It's intended for people who want to build Ubuntu-based distributions, IIRC.
[01:09] <stefg> subsume: so how much ram has the typical machine?
[01:09] <RockmanDensetsu> cost1> thanks for you attencions (:
[01:09] <cost1> RockmanDensetsu: np

[01:10] <c-ron> michealPW, have you check winehq to see if anyone has been able to run it?
[01:10] <michealPW> cost1: So, basically SONAR's a no go? Is there anything of comparable quality?
[01:10] <subsume> stefg: says total 376
[01:10] <michealPW> c-ron: Nothing on WineHQ was pleasing. The closest anyone has gotten and documented was getting it to *play* audio, aheuheuH!~

[01:15] <kindofabuzz> hmm
[01:15] <Stroganoff> tifine_: try mplayer or vlc
[01:15] <subsume> michealPW: gobuntu uses only open source drivers, etc?
[01:15] <tifine_> Stroganoff, try both same happening
[01:16] <stefg> subsume: the idea behind edubuntu is that you have only one powerful machine in the lab, and use old and obsolete computers just as terminals. all the actual work is done on the powerful machine. But if you have halfway decent machines, you should rather go for ubuntu, it's less complex
[01:16] <ryrys> tifine_, with vlc u play mkv's. videolan.org :)

[01:16] <subsume> stefg: bah, edubuntu doesn't even do that well. in order to get a good setup you have to customize it
[01:16] <tifine_> cost1, okie what codecs i needed to install for mkv movie
[01:16] <subsume> nikrud: what didn't?
[01:17] <c-ron> mp3 != free
[01:17] <subsume> nikrud oh
[01:17] <subsume> nikrud yeah, that's a little too hardcore OS for me =)
[01:17] <zcat[1]> !upgrade
[01:17] <ubotu> For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[01:17] <cost1>  tifine_: moment, i will check the wiki
[01:17] <michealPW> Thanks for the read, c-ron
[01:17] <ryrys> tifine_, hmmm alsa problems maybe....
[01:17] <michealPW> brb
[01:17] <Stroganoff> tifine_: try without binary video drivers
[01:17] <mike__> how can i install this VMware-workstation-6.0.0-45731.i386.tar.gz PLZ ...
[01:17] <nikrud> subsume I'm talking about ubuntu. Still doesn't come with mp3 support. You have to add it
[01:17] <tifine_> Stroganoff, without binary drivers ??
[01:17] <subsume> nikrud: yeah, i got that.
[01:18] <Stroganoff> tifine_: i cant find any confirmation at google related to your specific problem. just many people with movie playing without sound
[01:18] <subsume> nikrud: that's easy enough to add. a monitor driver can be hell =)
[01:18] <mike__> how can i format my Slave IDE hdd thata NTFS into a linux fileSys ?
[01:18] <tifine_> Stroganoff, i can hear the sound but why movie sometimes go to still and then play then still
[01:18] <Stroganoff> tifine_: i mean the closed source drivers coming directly from ati/nvidia/matrox/s3
[01:19] <tifine_> tifine_, but i dont exactly know which drivers i need for it
[01:19] <Stroganoff> tifine_: is it just one .mkv file or any?
[01:19] <kindofabuzz> is no one talking or is something messed up on my end?
[01:19] <izzy_> what does the echo command do ?
[01:20] <kindofabuzz> send me a msg please
[01:20] <tifine_> Stroganoff, just only one file
[01:20] <tifine_> Stroganoff, just only one file
[01:20] <Stroganoff> tifine_: it may be related to the codec. "mkv" ist just a container format
[01:20] <tbwnoob> hello room
[01:20] <tbwnoob> my graphics are flickering using ati?
[01:20] <Stroganoff> tifine_: you could try to convert that file to xvid.avi or something
[01:20] <incugus> Hello everyone, im a new ubuntu user, and im having some dificulties, i was wondering  if anyone has some spare time to help me out.
[01:21] <cost1>  tifine_: sory, i did not found anything
[01:21] <subsume> stefg: I'm just curious but why doesn't this darn computer start without being in recovery mode?
[01:21] <kindofabuzz> hello?
[01:21] <tifine_> Stroganoff, any idea how should i convert .mkv file to avi file
[01:21] <subsume> stefg: even though I can go into recovery mode and then start GDM just fine.

[01:25] <tbwnoob> ok
[01:25] <tbwnoob> im there
[01:25] <Stroganoff> tbwnoob: ctrl+W... search for "defaultdepth" and set it to 16
[01:25] <cyntek_> I am now recieving a problem with gutsy gibbon 7.10, the playback of audio cd's are playing way too fast. Is there a solution to fix this bug.
[01:25] <Stroganoff> instead of 24
[01:25] <stefg> subsume: no CD burner inreach ?
[01:26] <subsume> stefg: I have a burner. I just want to use it as a thin-client
[01:26] <subsume> stefg: (as well as burning the iso i am downloading)
[01:26] <nathan42100> welllll.....anyways, I can't write linux scripts for my life...can someone help me make a login script that a) mounts both hard drives and b) asks whether or not the user wants to boot into xubuntu or ubuntu (xfce vs GNOME)
[01:26] <tbwnoob> <Stroganoff ok
[01:26] <tbwnoob> <Stroganoff i set it to 16 from 24
[01:26] <Stroganoff> nathan42100: use gdm session vor xfce vs. gnome
[01:26] <stefg> subsume: i see... you can do a minimal install then... but that's a different CD :-)
[01:26] <tbwnoob> <Stroganoff : shouls i save?
[01:27] <subsume> stefg: what is the source package name for the min install?
[01:27] <Stroganoff> for choosing desktops i mean
[01:27] <Stroganoff> tbwnoob: yes. ctrl+alt+bckspacke
[01:27] <stefg> subsume: it's no package.. it's an .iso
[01:27] <Stroganoff> after safing
[01:27] <subsume> stefg: its a package too, i bet
[01:27] <LumberCartel> I've been setting up some old machines for people with Ubuntu Linux on them (they were previously Windows boxes from a school that upgraded their hardware, but the licenses weren't transferrable), and the few people who received them are very happy with them.
[01:27] <tbwnoob> <Stroganoff restart x server?
[01:27] <cyntek_> I am now recieving a problem with gutsy gibbon 7.10, the playback of audio cd's are playing way too fast. Is there a solution to fix this bug.
[01:27] <Stroganoff> yep
[01:27] <Schmeiz> how do i get ATI drivers working on ubuntu
[01:27] <stefg> subsume: but you have a harddrive inside the client, don't you?
[01:27] <tbwnoob> ok
[01:28] <subsume> stefg: well..yeah
[01:28] <gleblanc_> I'm not sure if anybody here would know, but I'm having trouble with soundconverter not recognizing my mp3 libraries on ubuntu
[01:28] <hischild> Schmeiz, enable the restricted drivers under system->adminstration->restricted drivers
[01:28] <nathan42100> stroganoff: how do I do that? I want it to actually pop up a box and not have to go into options each time to change it
[01:28] <gleblanc_> Any thoughts on how to debug?
[01:28] <LumberCartel> I've been using g4u to replicate Ubuntu installs, and all is working well, but some of these machines have larger drives and I'd like to know how to set up a partition using the extra disk space.
[01:28] <eduardo> Hey kids - another question... When upgrading my Ubunty, apt asked me if i wanted to use a new config or keep an existing now... so I said use new. I THINk that was in regards to "initramfs"... anyway my system doesn't boot now due to initramfs issues. is there any recourse?
[01:28] <stefg> !minimal | subsume
[01:28] <ubotu> subsume: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[01:28] <subsume> stefg: but I have a NFS loading /home drive
[01:28] <LumberCartel> Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[01:28] <sjovan> got a teamspeak isntall issue. I can't se the problem. http://pastebin.com/d222b358a <--- can you guys?
[01:29] <cyntek_> I am now recieving a problem with gutsy gibbon 7.10, the playback of audio cd's are playing way too fast. Is there a solution to fix this bug.
[01:29] <Stroganoff> nathan42100: there may be a hotkey for switching sessions. anyway you could create a blank session with your choosing script and your mount stuff
[01:29] <LumberCartel> I've found a few other poor families without computers -- the kids will be using Ubuntu with OpenOffice.org for their homework.  I've been giving these machines away for free.
[01:29] <stefg> subsume: so are you going to vnc/rdp/xdmcp into the server, or do you run apps locally?
[01:29] <c-ron> LumberCartel, nice. :)
[01:29] <cyntek_> good cause!
[01:29] <nathan42100> Stroganoff...i have no clue how to do this stuff, which is why I am ehre
[01:29] <nathan42100> here*
[01:29] <Stroganoff> nathan42100: you have to look into the necessary command yourself. the sessions are at /usr/share/xsession or somewhere (im not on linux right now)
[01:29] <subsume> stefg: run apps locally
[01:29] <LumberCartel> c-ron:  Ubuntu has been great for this.
[01:29] <kindofabuzz> LumberCartel: can i have one? i'm poor
[01:29] <cyntek_> good cause!
[01:30] <cyntek_> I am now recieving a problem with gutsy gibbon 7.10, the playback of audio cd's are playing way too fast. Is there a solution to fix this bug.
[01:30] <stefg> subsume: so just use the standard install, except tjat you mount /home via nfs
[01:30] <LumberCartel> c-ron:  I've already promised these machines to other -- they're 1 GHz AMD Durons so they're quite slow.  When I get more I'll ask around here though if I can't find good homes for them.
[01:30] <nathan42100> Thanks stroganoff
[01:30] <intarwebz> what's the difference between a windowing system and a window manager?

[01:30] <RockmanDensetsu> hello
[01:30] <c-ron> I pulled an old p2 out of a dumpster and put xubuntu on for my broke ass roommate

[01:30] <RockmanDensetsu> with my SO
[01:30] <RockmanDensetsu> ubuntu 7.10
[01:30] <stefg> subsume: so that's not exactly a thin client, but a fat clinet
[01:31] <RockmanDensetsu> the trouble its with my micropone
[01:31] <RockmanDensetsu> :(
[01:31] <subsume> stefg:  yes a fat client a la https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuLTSP/LTSPFatClients
[01:31] <Stroganoff> nathan42100: you will have to find a little program that lets you create custom graphical message boxes
[01:31] <LumberCartel> I'm fairly new to Linux, and am wondering:  How can I get a list of partitions, and how can I create a new one?  I know how to mount partitions from separately mounted drives already.
[01:31] <michealPW> Excellent read, c-ron.
[01:31] <navetz> hey guys, what do I download to be able to watch wma streamed videos?
[01:31] <nathan42100> how do I edit the files....
[01:31] <nathan42100> stroganoff: how do I edit the files
[01:31] <michealPW> Cleared a couple of things up, helped a lot as well.
[01:31] <navetz> or quicktime videos
[01:31] <michealPW> Ubuntu Studio it is!
[01:31] <michealPW> 8giggles8
[01:32] <c-ron> michealPW, do you make music?
[01:32] <Stroganoff> nathan42100, i mean for creating your custom DUAL CHOOSE box. then you have to start gnome-session or xfce-session (or is it xubuntu-session) with that dialogue box
[01:32] <Kubuntu-user> Hi all
[01:32] <c-ron> howdy Kubuntu-user
[01:32] <nathan42100> stroganoff: I still need to know how to edit them...they won't open in gedit even with sudo
[01:33] <Stroganoff> !bash | nathan42100
[01:33] <ubotu> nathan42100: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[01:33] <stefg> subsume: but these fat clients don't have a local harddrive. if you have harddisks inside your clients i would just use them as plain network clients, all apps installed locally and save lots of network traffic
[01:33] <navetz> !quicktime

[01:33] <Stroganoff> nathan42100: use "sudo nano file" for a starter
[01:33] <LumberCartel> Google hasn't been very helpful for partition management solutions in Ubuntu -- all I keep finding is stuff about Windows partitions, which is what I'm trying to get the world to get away from.
[01:33] <nathan42100> I have to edit them in nano is what you are saying stroganoff?
[01:33] <tbwnoob_> that crashed me
[01:33] <Stroganoff> yep
[01:33] <Stroganoff> and create new ones
[01:34] <Stroganoff> and understand what your doing (the hard part for a noob)
[01:34] <tbwnoob_> <Stroganoff that crashed my xserver
[01:34] <Stroganoff> so read some wesbites
[01:34] <Dr_willis> LumberCartel,  'sudo fdisk -l' for a list, to make/move/alter them - i normally use gparted.
[01:34] <Stroganoff> tbwnoob_ sure you did nothing wrong except change the defaultdepth?
[01:34] <LumberCartel> Ah, fdisk.  Thanks Dr_willis.
[01:34] <Stroganoff> let me have you ati card then
[01:34] <vlt> Hello. I fetched the source of a package (`apt-get source pkgname`), extracted it (`tar -xzf pkgname-version.tar.gz`) and modified a .cpp file. What's the easiest way to get an installable .deb file?
[01:34] <tbwnoob_> yup
[01:34] <tbwnoob_> what version of ati should i install
[01:34] <Dr_willis> LumberCartel,  same name as the command under windows. :) well used to be under windows.
[01:35] <tbwnoob_> 8.3 8.4 or 8.2?
[01:35] <Stroganoff> plus tbwnoob: paste your /var/log/Xorg.log into !paste
[01:35] <tbwnoob_> okay
[01:35] <Dr_willis> LumberCartel,   gparted will show them also - of course.  but fdisk -l is a good command to get a list of all the disns on a system
[01:35] <stefg> subsume: bedtime for me... good luck with hardy
[01:35] <kindofabuzz> i think i'm gonna go install Debian on my other hard drive just to try it out
[01:35] <Dr_willis> Testing out SIDux right now on some of my machines
[01:36] <tifine_> Stroganoff, any idea how long does that gonna take to convert ?
[01:36] <LumberCartel> Dr_willis:  I see hda1, hda2, and hda5 only.  Seems others are left out of the list?
[01:36] <kindofabuzz> what is Deb's default gui?
[01:36] <tbwnoob> even now because i have vesa enabled now
[01:36] <tbwnoob> as my driver
[01:36] <tbwnoob> should i change it back to ati then to my car log?
[01:36] <Dr_willis> LumberCartel,  what others?  It should list all that are seen by the bios.
[01:36] <tbwnoob> var log?
[01:36] <Stroganoff> tifine_: shoudlnt take more than 10 minutes with average settings
[01:36] <Stroganoff> if it's just 700mb
[01:36] <Vorodie> greetings every one
[01:36] <LumberCartel> Oh.  So the numbers aren't consecutive then.
[01:37] <tifine_> Stroganoff, no its 8gb :P
[01:37] <c-ron> this may be inappropriate, but is hardy heron a rip on hairy hardon?
[01:37] <Stroganoff> k that will take some time
[01:37] <Dr_willis> LumberCartel,   thats how extended and logical and primary partitions are named. 1-4  = primaries, 5+ = logicals/extendds
[01:37] <Stroganoff> tifine_: i hope your output file is not 700mb ;)
[01:38] <kindofabuzz> c-ron: LOL never thought about that
[01:38] <Schmeiz> hmm
[01:38] <tbwnoob> hello?
[01:38] <Schmeiz> every time i plug in my ATI video card, i can't get Ubuntu to start up
[01:38] <Itaku> !lol | kindofabuzz
[01:38] <ubotu> kindofabuzz: Please don't use "LOL" and "OMG" and so forth on a regular basis. This is IRC, not IM, and using those lines on their own is not required, and it is rather annoying to the rest of the people in the channel; thanks.
 okay im going to try different drivers and see if any one is better
[01:39] <Vorodie> i have a question: the Fridge page say that 8.04 is going to be LTS, while the Kubuntu announce say that it is NOT. what is correct?

[01:42] <c-ron> Stroganoff, mplayer plays it. i just checked
[01:42] <crackheadjunky> Schmeiz, use synaptic
[01:42] <Stroganoff> navetz: install mozilla-mplayer with those medibuntu repos
install envy
[01:42] <crackheadjunky> Schmeiz, type in ati in the search in synaptic
[01:42] <navetz> Stroganoff: alright, thanks.
[01:42] <Dr_willis> Schmeiz,  some people use the ati installer (which is that .run file)  - but its not reccomended.. envy is not recomended either. :) but good luck
[01:42] <LumberCartel> Dr_willis:  Thanks.  I'm familiar with some of this stuff from NetBSD.  It seems that Linux does things quite differently.
[01:42] <urthmover> I have manually compiled the nvidia drivers and everything looks good (resolution etc.) when I reboot ubuntu says that it can't detect the graphics adaptor and then boots in a low graphics configuration.  How do I get the new nvidia drivers to stick after a reboot? (/etc/modules HAS nvidia in it)
[01:42] <revned> Hello. I'm having trouble setting up Twinview. Whenever I set the settings and hit apply and save file.  The changes dont take affect after I restart the X Server
[01:42] <LumberCartel> Dr_willis, thanks again for all your help.  I'll be reading for a while then I'll return if I have any more questions.
[01:43] <Dr_willis> LumberCartel,  bsd names the drives in a different way also.. GRUB also names them in a different way also. :)
[01:43] <tbwnoob> <Stroganoff any luck on which version of driver i should use
[01:43] <LumberCartel> Yup.
[01:43] <navetz> Stroganoff: i notice in the repos that there is also kaffiene-mozilla, would that work as well?

[01:47] <alan_m> Guys, this is a support room, keep the random chatter in #ubuntu-offtopic as ubotu has informed, thanks :)
[01:47] <kindofabuzz> urthmover: try Envy
[01:47] <Dr_willis> urthmover,  you are probelry on ignore by 90% of the channel now.
[01:47] <c-ron> urthmover,
[01:47] <tbwnoob> <Stroganoff okay ive got version 8.4 ubnstalled now
[01:47] <urthmover> oops
[01:47] <urthmover> sheesh  so sorry guys
[01:47] <subsume> crackheadjunky: just msg me?
[01:47] <urthmover> :-S
[01:47] <tbwnoob> <Stroganoff i need to restart then i will get you me my var .log
[01:47] <tbwnoob> brb
[01:47] <Dr_willis> urthmover,  :) is there some reason you dident use the restricted-manager tools and used the nvidis installer?
[01:48] <urthmover> I was scrolled down all the way
[01:48] <digitalslave> anyone know why msn support would suddenly stop working with pidgin and how i can fix it?
[01:48] <crackheadjunky> subsume, i thought you could get another room here, guess not...
[01:48] <urthmover> that is what I did Dr Willis
[01:48] <subsume> crackheadjunky: =)
[01:48] <urthmover> using the restriced tools
[01:48] <urthmover> I do both
[01:48] <peter-> I did update my ubuntu to hardy beta. Its good but when i launch compiz, it wont show borders. I have installed emerald. I have ati's graphic card.
[01:48] <crackheadjunky> subsume, ifconfig sees it?
[01:48] <peter-> Hi!
[01:48] <peter-> I did update my ubuntu to hardy beta. Its good but when i launch compiz, it wont show borders. I have installed emerald. I have ati's graphic card.
[01:48] <c-ron> urthmover, tried envy?
[01:48] <crackheadjunky> subsume, do you see your network in the list?
[01:48] <peter-> Sorry spam :S
[01:48] <subsume> crackheadjunky: the device? yeah? but the device ahs no IP or anything
[01:48] <subsume> crackheadjunky: yeah, its there.
[01:48] <urthmover> and it works...but when I reboot nothing sticks...and yes I havve Envy installed
[01:48] <Integration> hey guys i'm using drupal6 when I try to do changes to the navigation like disable or drag and move an item and then save it won't make the change. Any ideas?
[01:49] <subsume> crackheadjunky: i just can't connecto internet
[01:49] <Dr_willis> urthmover,   thats what you said. :) or  thats now how i read it..   -   'I have manually compiled the nvidia' is not using restricted-manager
[01:49] <poseidon> For somereason I can't get a wireless connection anymore.  When I click on the network manager the wireless netowkrs don't show up anymore.  and when I click on manual configuration wireless networks still doesn't show up as an option.  However if I go to the network editor I can see the last reuter I was on, and it's info
[01:49] <BysmuthMage> if i'm out of CDs can I just burn the ubuntu live cd image to a DVD and use that?  (the target machine does have a DVD drive)
[01:49] <poseidon> In hardy Heron.  I'm in xp right now
[01:49] <crackheadjunky> subsume, ok, have you configured wep or anything?
[01:49] <digitalslave> complains of ssl support and im assuming its tied to the firefox install but the libs seem to be there
[01:49] <subsume> crackheadjunky: lots of other computers are using web just fine (including me now)
[01:49] <urthmover> well I meant that the nvidia precompile kernel program from a CLI was done
[01:49] <Dr_willis> urthmover,  check your kernel versions,  also check your xorg.conf to see if its some how getting changed. I guess.  Its possible by trying envy, or other tools. you may have confused some things.
[01:49] <subsume> crackheadjunky: fresh install of ubuntu didn't get the network right
[01:49] <crackheadjunky> subsume, do you have the network encrypted?
[01:50] <subsume> crackheadjunky: no
[01:50] <urthmover> possibly I'll look there  thanks
[01:50] <crackheadjunky> subsume, what version of ubuntu are you running?
[01:50] <tcpdumpgod> Hey, can anyone get the Fasttrack plugin for GiFT to connect?
[01:50] <subsume> crackheadjunky: setting dns addy worked =)
[01:50] <subsume> 192.168.1.1
[01:50] <crackheadjunky> subsume, got it?
[01:51] <subsume> crackheadjunky: yeah
[01:51] <crackheadjunky> subsume, sweet
[01:51] <Stroganoff> peter-: you dont upgrade with ATI and compiz to beta.
[01:51] <digitalslave> kopete msn works fine just pidgin is messed up
[01:51] <Stroganoff> peter-: open a terminal (alt+f2 -> xterm) and type compiz --replace
[01:52] <peter-> Stroganoff, How i can upgrade to beta?
[01:52] <Stroganoff> peter-: see if there are errors
[01:52] <BysmuthMage> oh 8.04 for ati cards just do "SKIP_CHECKS=yes compiz"
[01:52] <kindofabuzz> kopete rocks
[01:52] <Stroganoff> peter-: you HAVE upgraded to beta (HARDY is beta)
[01:52] <BysmuthMage> in terminal
[01:52] <digitalslave> firefox is installed in /usr/lib/firefox and the firefox beta has been placed in /usr/bin/firefox3
[01:52] <crackheadjunky> anyone using firefox 3?
[01:52] <peter-> Stroganoff, I mean compiz and emerald
[01:53] <c-ron> kubuntu hardy has kde 3.5, but remix has 4?
[01:53] <digitalslave> err /usr/lib/firefox3 that is
[01:53] <Stroganoff> peter-: noobs shouldnt go beta. post you logfiles with http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org into #ubuntu+1 or just give up on compiz for now ;)
[01:53] <digitalslave> firefox3 is great but seems its borked my ssl support in pidgin?
[01:53] <Stroganoff> i see, peter-
[01:54] <kindofabuzz> what does firefox have to do with pidgen?
[01:54] <crackheadjunky> digitalslave, thats weird
[01:54] <crackheadjunky> digitalslave, i dont believe that is the problem with pidgin...
[01:54] <Stroganoff> digitalslave: install firefox-2
[01:54] <digitalslave> ive read the ssl libs are contained in the firefox folder?
[01:54] <crackheadjunky> digitalslave, not for pidgin, i dont think
[01:54] <digitalslave> ive removed and reinstalled both firefox and pidgin from repos and its still borked
[01:55] <kindofabuzz> digital: try the firefox forums, forums.mozillazine.org
[01:55] <Stroganoff> digitalslave: or have you installed firefox3 manually over your old firefox?
[01:55] <Stroganoff> are you on gutsy?
[01:55] <mannex> Every time I try to update or install a package it additionally tries to install "sun-java6-doc (6-03-0ubuntu2)". I think the reason for this is because I tried to install the sun-java6-doc in the past and it failed, now it tries to perform this operation every time, and it always fails. How can I remove this package from the list so it does not try to update at all?
[01:55] <digitalslave> no firefox3 is kept seperate in /usr/lib/firefox3 - yes gutsy
[01:55] <tifine_> Stroganoff, when its gonna do the conversion does it gonna make the 8gb .avi file or 700mb file ?
[01:55] <bluecake> how to config ubuntu, so i can use wireless card for internet, and config eth0 to be 10.0.1.100 and use both interfaces the same time? when i plug in wired eth0, wirelss turns off automatically
[01:56] <Stroganoff> digitalslave: still, you should install fx3 with the swiftfox repos for now
[01:57] <whyameye_> is there a way in the Gnome environment to prevent applications from stealing focus?
[01:57] <digitalslave> all i know is shortly after running firefox3 msn disconnected and hasnt been able to utilize ssl since
[01:57] <Stroganoff> tifine_ that depends on your settings in that conversion manager and of the bitrate of the mkv. you should use a bitrate between 900 and 1100 kbit/s for your output file
[01:57] <Stroganoff> if its not HD
[01:57] <kindofabuzz> digitalslave: does this help any? http://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/FAQssl
[01:58] <digitalslave> i read that it just says to build it yourself
[01:58] <Stroganoff> digitalslave: sudo apt-get purge firefox
[01:58] <tifine_> Stroganoff, I just installed the mencoder and use the simple command i.e. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MEncoder
[01:58] <digitalslave> but ssl should be included in the gutsy repo no?
[01:58] <Stroganoff> and remove ~/.mozilla
[01:58] <xp_prg_> can anyone help me with port forwarding?
[01:58] <Stroganoff> thats right digitalslave, i have no real clue what the source of the problem might be
[01:58] <warriorforgod> What would be the easiest way to migrate an ubuntu server off a VM to a physical machine.
[01:58] <tifine_> xp_prg_, on router, which one do you have ?
[01:58] <kindofabuzz> Libpurple needs to be compiled with SSL support in order to work with MSN, Novell GroupWise, and some Jabber/XMPP servers which support or require it, such as Google Talk. You will need either GNUTLS and all its dependencies or Mozilla NSS and NSPR.
[01:58] <digitalslave> doing the purge - didnt do that before just removed
[01:59] <Stroganoff> xp_prg_: read the manual of your router
[01:59] <peter-> Stroganoff, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60818/
[01:59] <xp_prg_> I am trying to do an ssh tunnel
[01:59] <xp_prg_> can anyone assist me?
[01:59] <AnthraxDream> Can anyone tell me why my NTFS drive is no longer showing up on ubuntu but it shows up on vista?
[01:59] <tifine_> xp_prg_, here it is http://portforward.com/
[01:59] <Schmeiz> ok
[01:59] <Schmeiz> uhm
[02:00] <Schmeiz> how long does it normally take samba to send a document to the printer?
[02:00] <Schmeiz> cuz i've got almost a 1 minute delay from when i hit the print button, to when it actually prints
[02:00] <pretender> Can anyone help with making DVD Case Cover in ubuntu with GLabels
[02:00] <h0ax> I am a total n00b at linux and am trying to get my wireless working I have a linksys wpc11 ver 4 card can someone help me please
[02:00] <Stroganoff> peter-: use gconf and remove that path that is indicated in the gconf line of that error log
[02:01] <peter-> Can you copy it to me, so i know what of them?
[02:01] <kindofabuzz> !wireless
[02:01] <peter-> Stroganoff, Can you copy it to me, so i know what of them?
[02:01] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[02:01] <digitalslave> purge and removing .mozilla did nothing same error
[02:01] <h0ax> !wireless
[02:01] <digitalslave> if tried LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to the lib and that didnt work either just as a test
[02:02] <kindofabuzz> digitalslave: did you see that ssl link i posted? did that help any?
[02:02] <Stroganoff> peter-: /apps/compiz/plugins/scale/allscreens/options/initiate_edge and
[02:02] <Stroganoff> expo_edge
[02:02] <AnthraxDream> Can anyone tell me why my NTFS drive is no longer showing up on ubuntu but it shows up on vista?
[02:02] <phoenix24> Is there any utility, that can generate call graphs from the source-code ?
[02:02] <digitalslave> no thats for compiling yourself with ssl support which i shouldnt need to do for gutsy
[02:02] <crackheadjunky> AnthraxDream, check your fstab file
[02:02] <AnthraxDream> Where can I find that?
[02:03] <crackheadjunky> gedit fstab
[02:03] <Stroganoff> digitalslave: open pidgin from command line and giev ssl errors
[02:03] <Schmeiz> is samba really supposed to take this long to communicate?
[02:03] <prince_jammys> AnthraxDream: check the output of: grep ntfs /etc/fstab
[02:03] <kindofabuzz> digitalslave: Uninstall any previous versions of Pidgin using apt, Synaptic, or similar. Then install the libnss3-dev package with Synaptic or apt-get install libnss3-dev. Now re-run ./configure, make, make install. Alternatively, use apt-get build-dep gaim (or pidgin on Gusty, although gaim will work) to get all of Pidgin's dependencies, then rebuild Pidgin.
[02:03] <Schmeiz> i sent a job to the tray over 2 minutes ago
[02:03] <prince_jammys> AnthraxDream: and you will see the line, if it's there
[02:03] <AnthraxDream> Well it was showing up before. It just stopped like 20 minutes ago
[02:03] <crackheadjunky> AnthraxDream, you could do what prince says, or you could just gedit fstab
[02:03] <kindofabuzz> taken from http://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/FAQssl
[02:03] <digitalslave> kindofabuzz, it should be in the repo already
[02:03] <warriorforgod> What would be the easiest way to migrate an ubuntu server off a VM to a physical machine.
[02:04] <Stroganoff> crackheadjunky: gedit + config files sucks, even non sudo :p
[02:04] <crackheadjunky> Stroganoff, it works...
[02:04] <digitalslave> it was working and just stopped after running firefox3
[02:04] <Stroganoff> on the other hand. nvm
[02:04] <peter-> Stroganoff, Did the line end on and or are you pasting new line?
[02:04] <Stroganoff> peter- yes there was more to this line
[02:04] <Stroganoff> you log is not that long
[02:05] <Stroganoff> you are able to ctrl+f gconf
[02:05] <peter-> ok
[02:05] <crackheadjunky> AnthraxDream, you could also go to terminal and type in fdisk -l
[02:05] <digitalslave> Stroganoff, they trapped the error so it just says there is no ssl support
[02:05] <MFen> how do i change the player that runs when i insert a dvd?
[02:05] <crackheadjunky> AnthraxDream, and give us the output
[02:05] <Stroganoff> who are they?
[02:05] <michealPW> Stroganoff: Alt+F2 > gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:05] <MFen> i want to use vlc instead of totem, which always plays the director's cut trac
[02:05] <michealPW> Stroganoff: Gedit loves you!:)
[02:05] <digitalslave> pidgin dev?
[02:05] <michealPW> 8giggles8
[02:05] <michealPW> even for configuration modifications.
[02:05] <peter-> Stroganoff, Thanks. Im asking again if i have an problem :p
[02:05] <Stroganoff> michealPW, creating root owned .gedit files in ~?
[02:05] <eraemaajaervi> somebody know if there is q function in Amarok equivalent to Winamps Jump to Track?
[02:05] <eraemaajaervi> q=a
[02:06] <MFen> i've already tried right-clicking the dvd icon to see whether i could change the app the same way you would change the app for an .mp3 file or something.  no option in that properties dialog would do it, though
[02:06] <Schmeiz> can i disable the login for ubuntu at the start?
[02:06] <michealPW> Stroganoff: Yea, well, in Gedit's configuration you can disable the creation of the ~ backups, IIRC.
[02:06] <MFen> it's also not in system > preferences > preferred applications
[02:06] <michealPW> Stroganoff: Added fileIO weight anyways, right?:)
[02:06] <method1> how do i sign up for the weekly news letter ?
[02:06] <subsume> lets say I have a little script which mounts my nfs /home drives. where can I put this to instantiate it?
[02:06] <subsume> lts.conf?
[02:06] <Stroganoff> michealPW well you can? thats nice. are you giving me noob commands (alt+f2) plus special knowledge?
[02:06] <Stroganoff> thanx
[02:07] <michealPW> Stroganoff: Of course! Kate > Gedit, too.
[02:07] <crackheadjunky> subsume, sorry, no good there...
[02:07] <subsume> crackheadjunky: =)
[02:07] <Stroganoff> whatever
[02:07] <Stroganoff> emacs
[02:07] <GEIS> Hi, im going to install ubuntu for my server, however how do i have a gui access instead of sshing into the server since i will be installing ubuntu-desktop as well?
[02:07] <michealPW> Stroganoff: I'm newbie, but I have a feeling Gedit and Kate build from the same OSS project, heehee:)
[02:07] <crackheadjunky> GEIS, just boot the disk, it is a live cd, then install it with the install icon
[02:07] <peter-> Stroganoff, So do i remove that line what you said?
[02:07] <peter-> initiate_edge
[02:08] <Stroganoff> with the gconf editor tool, yes
[02:08] <Stroganoff> and the other line, too
[02:08] <peter-> yes
[02:08] <peter-> hope it works
[02:08] <Stroganoff> i wouldnt think so, peter-
[02:08] <peter-> Stroganoff, Why?
[02:09] <Stroganoff> peter- feeling ;)
[02:09] <peter-> Stroganoff, And what other line?
[02:09] <peter-> Stroganoff, Ok.
[02:09] <sourcemaker> how bad is the performance when I use an encrypted file system? It's is maybe better to create a encrypted patition for the user home?
[02:09] <peter-> i remove that initiate_edge key
[02:09] <Stroganoff> peter-: you are on fglrx, right?
[02:09] <peter-> then?
[02:09] <peter-> YYepe.
[02:09] <Stroganoff> then retry?
[02:09] <peter-> k
[02:10] <GEIS> Hi, im going to install ubuntu for my server, however how do i have a gui access instead of sshing into the server since i will be installing ubuntu-desktop as well? (what i mean is how to i connect it with a gui access instead of sshing)
[02:10] <Stroganoff> GEIS bad idea to install the desktop
[02:11] <Stroganoff> if you dont want to surf and watch movies on the server
[02:11] <Stroganoff> there are web interface projects for servers
[02:11] <izzy_> not much has changed with ubuntu server since 5.1 has it ?
[02:11] <Stroganoff> for basic/ultimate remote access you have to install the "ssh" package, you can access it from windows with "putty"
[02:12] <Stroganoff> GIES
[02:12] <Stroganoff> GEIS
[02:12] <GEIS> ?
[02:12] <jbinder> Yes it has..
[02:12] <peter-> Stroganoff, Was there that other line?
[02:12] <Stroganoff> GEIS, read my messages.
[02:12] <Stroganoff> above
[02:12] <GEIS> i know
[02:12] <Stroganoff> k
[02:12] <GEIS> but i need the use of amule
[02:12] <Stroganoff> use mldonkey, GEIS
[02:12] <GEIS> and amule nongui version doesn't work perfectly
[02:13] <GEIS> Stroganoff, nongui?
[02:13] <Stroganoff> yep
[02:13] <h0ax> when i try to install ndisgtk it says   some of the packages could not be retrieved from the server
[02:14] <MFen> where do i change the preference that causes totem to launch when i insert a dvd?
[02:14] <Stroganoff> GEIS: if you really want to install a desktop you should use xubuntu + the "vino" vnc server
[02:14] <moogmusic> when i suspend ubuntu 7.10 at my laptop, i dont have a network connection anymore after resuming from suspend. wny help ?
[02:14] <GEIS> Stroganoff, using a web interface to control mldonkey?
[02:14] <moogmusic> how can i restart my wifi after resuming (and it doesnt work)
[02:15] <moogmusic> ifconfig up/down doesnt work
[02:15] <Stroganoff> GEIS, web interface is built into mldonkey
[02:15] <Stroganoff> read some docs about mldonkey...
[02:16] <GEIS> only vnc server works with gui access? no inbuild applications that allows me to setup gui control?
[02:16] <Stroganoff> GEIS, you can use X forwarding
[02:16] <Stroganoff> rather complicated and doesnt work with windows
[02:16] <Kubuntu-user> I've installed commercial drivers for nvidia tnt2.after that i ran my os once more.my ubuntu 7.04 is up to date.problem:hi-res=800x600
[02:16] <HinHin> Stroganoff, X11 forwarding is really simple
[02:17] <HinHin> and you can SSH the remote machine using windows too
[02:17] <Stroganoff> anyway GEIS, you may not want to install a desktop but keep it nice and easy with mldonkey
[02:17] <HinHin> (via something like putty)
[02:17] <Stroganoff> HinHin, thanks for the heads up
[02:17] <HinHin> hmm... if memory serves you need to enable it in the sshconfig file
[02:18] <GEIS> how do i install mldonkey if i have no gui in the first place to control the web interface?
[02:18] <Stroganoff> GEIS, you set up mldonkey with the command line
[02:18] <Stroganoff> and config files
[02:19] <Stroganoff> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CommandlineHowto
[02:19] <Stroganoff> and read the manpage or a beginner tutorial about mldonkey
[02:19] <peter-> Stroganoff, Can you help me with this compiz?
[02:19] <Jangari> Is there a way to restart to a particular entry of the menu.lst from a command line?
[02:19] <Stroganoff> peter-, i have almost no own experience with compiz
[02:19] <HinHin> Stroganoff, and GEIS you might want to look into X11 fowarding
[02:19] <HinHin> http://thebadness.org/2007/09/x11-forwarding-in-ubuntu/
[02:19] <peter-> Ok
[02:19] <peter-> Then
[02:20] <HinHin> i do recommend a fast connection though...
[02:20] <Stroganoff> HinHin: always promoting the cause? ;)
[02:20] <Kubuntu-user> Help me
[02:20] <Stroganoff> nope
[02:20] <HinHin> the cause?
[02:20] <Stroganoff> nvm ;)

[02:37] <redbrain> <3 ubuntu
[02:38] <nebnav> anyone know how progress is on maemo desktop for ubuntu mobile and embedded? worth porting to devices?
[02:39] <digitalslave> for the ssl in pidgin i have found that ldd of ssl-nss.so finds libnssutil3.so not found anyone know how to fix?
[02:39] <rsk> i heard redbrain is the last windows user
[02:40] <nebnav> can i use pidgin for IRC? xchat kinda sucks.
[02:40] <h0ax> I cannot tell if my issue is with wpa or with the wireless card   I went to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsLinksys and some people have had this card work out of the box not sure what to do
[02:40] <Starnestommy> nebnav: you could, but pidgin's irc support isn't very good
[02:40] <digitalslave> nebnav, yes you can
[02:40] <kindofabuzz> rsk: use chatzilla!
[02:40] <kindofabuzz> firefox addon
[02:40] <daved> kindofabuzz, that's kinda like saying "that hammer sucks, here have a rock"
[02:41] <nebnav> what are you using? i presume your on a linux based os(ubuntu).
[02:41] <kindofabuzz> what's wrong with chatzilla?  better tha an im plugin and xchat
[02:41] <daved> i use xchat with a bunch of preferences tweaked
[02:41] <daved> and blacktheme
[02:42] <Starnestommy> kindofabuzz: if firefox crashes, so does chatzilla, and you have to restart chatzilla when firefox has to restart
[02:42] <digitalslave> anyone know what the libpurple2 package is called?
[02:42] <daved> but i agree it's really not that great, just the best of the crap
[02:42] <Dr_willis> I will stick with xchat.
[02:42] <kindofabuzz> i've never had firefox crash so...
[02:42] <ythe1300> I have
[02:42] <digitalslave> kindofabuzz is NOT a myspace user ;)
[02:42] <Dr_willis> we need a flash based irc client.....
[02:42] <Dr_willis> :)
[02:42] <daved> i've never had firefox not crash at least once a day
[02:42] <Starnestommy> digitalslave: it might be libpurple0 or libpurrple-dev
[02:42] <digitalslave> ouch not flash
[02:42] <Starnestommy> *libpurple-dev
[02:42] <ythe1300> nither am I
[02:43] <ythe1300> @ David: ouch
[02:43] <nathan42100> so....I just deleted some things and they aren't in the trash....
[02:43] <ythe1300> ..?
[02:44] <digitalslave> there IS a difference between delete and send to trash ;)
[02:44] <Schmiez> i still cant freakin get my ATI Raedon 9250 PCI card working with ubuntu
[02:44] <Schmiez> i dunno what i'm doing wrong
[02:44] <nathan42100> ....I thought the delete key sent it to the trash, like windows...
[02:44] <daved> nathan: delete like hit the delete key or delete like 'rm -rf /'
[02:44] <nathan42100> delete key daved
[02:45] <pantaloon> has anyone actually burned a file >4gb? I've got k3b 1.04 installed with mkisofs and genisoimage and I get an error every time I try to add a file larger than 4gb
[02:45] <nathan42100> would the fact that I am deleting them in xubuntu make a difference?
[02:45] <daved> nathan42100, it could
[02:45] <daved> nathan42100, it's all up to your windowmanager to deal with trash
[02:46] <pantaloon> tried both udf and rockridge udf
[02:46] <Dr_willis> pantaloon,  dont you need to use the udf filesystem for that? I seem to recall some other burner app warning me of this.
[02:46] <ythe1300> Schmiez: even with the nos drivers?
[02:46] <Schmiez> can anyone help? i've got an ATI Raedn 9250 PCI Graphics card and when its hooked up to my pci slot, and boot my pc, ubuntu doesn't even load up
[02:46] <digitalslave> ugggg f pidgin i say i dunno what the deal is reinstalled purple and pidgin and still no ssl
[02:46] <pantaloon> yes, you do, but it still doesn't work :(
[02:46] <Schmiez> ythe1300: nos drivers?
[02:46] <ythe1300> Non-Open Source
[02:46] <daved> Schmiez, buy an nvidia card
[02:47] <ythe1300> daved: :P
[02:47] <nebnav> how do i convert from .avi to dvd file structure? mencoder or something? 7.10
[02:47] <Schmiez> i dunno how to get the drivers to work
[02:47] <ythe1300> Schmiez: is it booting at all?
[02:47] <daved> well i was only half-joking.. if he values his time at all it will be worth it in the end to just suck it up and buy the better-supported card :)
[02:47] <Nasra> Can you tell me ....how Bittorent is used for?
[02:47] <kindofabuzz> pantaloon: does this help? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=352386
[02:47] <Schmiez> it gets to the point with the ubuntu logo, and the bar, the bar fills up, then the screen goes black and nothing happens
[02:48] <daved> nasra: downloading files
[02:48] <ythe1300> Daved: true

[02:49] <Schmiez> ythe1300: what can i do to get it to work?
[02:49]  * w30 wants to apologize to all the MS Vista users for gloating. I just upgraded my laptop to the latest and greatest ultimate operating system and had no driver or application problems whatsoever. Suspend and hybernate work perfect, the wireless connection is rock solid. What more can I say. (Upgraded Feisty to Gutsy Gibbon).
[02:49] <ythe1300> got to give me more info.
[02:49] <Nasra> ok...kind of understanding
[02:49] <Schmiez> like what?
[02:49] <nathan42100> daved, any other ideas?
[02:49] <ythe1300> Schmiez:
[02:49] <daved> pici: ah thanks, been looking for something like bum :)
[02:50] <pantaloon> kindofabuzz, not really...i've already tried K3b v1.0.4 and it's a no go...i've managed to create an iso file using genisoimage from the command line, but i was hoping there'd be a more graphical method if you know what I mean
[02:50] <tehquickness> Anyone notice that 8.04 is much slower than 7.10?? is this due to Gnome 2.2??
[02:50] <Stroganoff> w30 wait until you run into problems ;)
[02:50] <themoebius> daved: it says update-rc.d: /etc/init.d/boinc-client exists during rc.d purge (use -f to force)
[02:50] <nebnav> Stroganoff: thanks but is there some sort of batch script that will install deps and then convert?
[02:50] <ythe1300> Schmiez:  does it boot with onboard?
[02:50] <daved> nathan42100, not sure what wm you're running under xfce4 but it may use a different system for "trash"
[02:50] <kindofabuzz> digitalslave: Why can't I use OpenSSL for SSL support in libpurple? ¶
[02:50] <kindofabuzz> The OpenSSL license is not compatible with the libpurple license (GPLv2). The Free Software Foundation maintains a list of open-source licenses and details their compatibility or incompatibility with the GPL. The OpenSSL license is discussed there.
[02:50] <Schmiez> ythe1300: yah it boots with onboard
[02:50] <kindofabuzz> In summary: you need GNUTLS or Mozilla NSS and NSPR; OpenSSL will not do.
[02:50] <daved> themoebius, update-rc.d -f boinc-client remove
[02:51] <nathan42100> daved, is it still trash:///
[02:51] <GEIS> Stroganoff, i cant find installation guide for mldonkey webui version
[02:51] <w30> Stroganoff: No worry, you guys in here will help me fix 'em.
[02:51] <Schmiez> ythe1300: yah it boots with onboard
[02:51] <ythe1300> Schmiez: Have you tried booting with the Onboard turned off in the BIOS
[02:51] <Stroganoff> GEIS: just install mldonkey with sudo apt-get install mldonkey
[02:51] <daved> themoebius, technically you need to set it to kill at runlevel 3, but the link or software pici linked will be much more helpful to you if you're not sure what i mean by that
[02:51] <Schmiez> no i havent. i'll try that real quick
[02:51] <Stroganoff> then read the manpage with: man mldonkey
[02:51] <digitalslave> then why is libpurple0 a dependency of pidgin?
[02:51] <pantaloon> kindofabuzz, I'm trying to burn said iso file now
[02:51] <daved> themoebius, but running that command will disable it for now (though it may begin autostarting again if boinc-client package upgrades)
[02:52] <daved> nathan42100, im really not sure, i dont run xfce4
[02:52] <daved> nathan42100, it may not use the trash at all
[02:52] <nathan42100> try it in GNOME
[02:52] <ythe1300> k
[02:52] <ythe1300> k
[02:52] <Stroganoff> w30: first help urself with wiki, google and obtaining debian/linux background knowlege ;)
[02:52] <digitalslave> which also brings me back to the fd up firefox!
[02:52] <themoebius> daved: thanks
[02:52] <nathan42100> i know it does the Icon is still in the bottom right corner...
[02:52] <daved> nathan42100, my trash works fine in gnome
[02:52] <daved> themoebius, np
[02:52] <Dr_willis> daved,  i seem to recall xfce doing somthing differently with trash.. but i dont use it either.
[02:52] <fab4fan> hi
[02:53] <nathan42100> daved
[02:53] <Schmiez> ythe1300
[02:53] <kindofabuzz> digitalslave: here's that link again in case you didn't read it earlier: http://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/FAQssl
[02:53] <nathan42100> fixed, but kinda
[02:53] <nathan42100> not really
[02:53] <digitalslave> anyone know the nss and nspr package names?
[02:53] <Schmiez> ythe1300: disabled and trying it now.
[02:53] <GEIS> what does mldonkey stands for anyway
[02:53] <ythe1300> k
[02:53] <Stroganoff> GEIS, wtf?
[02:53] <w30> Stroganoff: doing it that way is much better because you learn something by doing it yourself if possible.
[02:53] <Stroganoff> GEIS: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mldonkey
[02:53] <Scunizi> nathan42100, in Gnome if you delete something it's gone.. If you send it to trash it lands in the "trash can"
[02:53] <nathan42100> daved, there is a difference between trash: (where it all went to) and trash:/// (which is what the shortcut in the bottom right brings me to)
[02:53] <Schmiez> the ubuntu logo shows up. and the bar is loading.....
[02:53] <digitalslave> ive read if over and over and it has nothing to solve the problem and you dont understand the problem or you wouldnt be posting the link ovekr and over
[02:53] <Schmiez> once it completely fills the screen goes black
[02:53] <ythe1300> I know that I had a PC that would not boot with my 5200 unless the onboard GFX was disabled.
[02:54] <ythe1300> Schmiez:
[02:54] <Schmiez> and then nothing happens at all
[02:54] <nathan42100> daved, doesnt do that for me...
[02:54] <ythe1300> :(
[02:54] <Schmiez> T_T

[02:54] <fab4fan> Schmiez: and ?
[02:54] <nathan42100> :-/ no restore button
[02:54] <nathan42100> Shmiez, whats the problem?
[02:54] <Nasra> ...just started like a week ago....I love it...
[02:55] <Schmiez> ythe1300: how do i do that
[02:55] <Nasra> real learning big time....by asking alotof questions...
[02:55] <Schmiez> the problem is i cant get my ATI Raedon 9250 to work with ubuntu
[02:55] <ythe1300> Schmiez: booting off the live CD?
[02:55] <daved> my first copy of linux came on a 1.4m floppy :P
[02:55] <Stroganoff> Schmiez, it should run using the open source "ati" drivers
[02:55] <Schmiez> the onboard vid card works, but when i have my monitor hooked up to my ati, or if i have my Ati in my pc at all, it doesn't work
[02:55] <kindofabuzz> david: DSL?
[02:56] <daved> kindofabuzz, slackware
[02:56] <nathan42100> schmiez, did you try the safegraphics boot?
[02:56] <ythe1300> :)
[02:56] <kindofabuzz> k
[02:56] <fab4fan> Schmiez, is there a BIOS setting to disable your onboard video card ?
[02:56] <Schmiez> fab4fan: i did that already just tried it
[02:56] <ythe1300> fab4fan: already tried that
[02:56] <fab4fan> ok, just checking
[02:56] <ryan> @daved wow and to make matters worse it was metric
[02:56] <w30> daved: I am a new user then; I started with RedHat 4.6 on a cd. *smile*
[02:56] <Schmiez> i can get a safegraphics boot to work, but its just gives me the terminal
[02:56] <Lleumas> The thumbnail previews to my videos aren't showing up. Any ideas? I have xine installed.
[02:56] <ythe1300> that's fine
[02:57] <kindofabuzz> yeah i think my first install was red hat
[02:57] <kindofabuzz> i love Debian distros though now
[02:57] <w30> no live cd's though.
[02:57] <ythe1300> Schmiez: you should be able to edit the video config file from there.
[02:57] <cory__> hey guys im thinking about dual booting Windows XP, can i do this with Ubuntu installed first?
[02:57] <Stroganoff> i started with suse 7.3 on ten cds ;)
[02:57] <Schmiez> ythe1300: how do i go about doing that?
[02:57] <ythe1300> Schmiez: giv e me a sec and I'll remember how too.
[02:57] <fab4fan> cory__, I had better luck with XP installed first
[02:58] <fab4fan> cory:  that's what I'm doing now
[02:58] <kindofabuzz> cory__: yeah it's possible, google it though, unless someone here knows what to do
[02:58] <Schmiez> ok
[02:58] <daved> cory: you can, but you'll need to fix the boot-loader after windows clobbers it
[02:58] <daved> cory: there are about a gajillion hits on google for that very topic i'd imagine
[02:58] <kindofabuzz> why would you wanna install it though? =)
[02:58] <cory__> to play games
[02:58] <h0ax> ah
[02:58] <Stroganoff> cory__: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoverGrub
[02:59] <w30> cory__: windows likes the first partition on the first hard drive so watch out and also windows will redo the mbr.
[02:59] <kindofabuzz> have you looked at www.winehq.com to see if possible to play uneder wine?
[02:59] <daved> cory: may want to give wine/cedega a shot with your games first.. could possibly save yourself the trouble of dualboot
[02:59] <ythe1300> it's like edit x.org config
[02:59] <ythe1300> :/
[02:59] <cory__> I did try wine, It doesnt play sound from my USB headphones
[02:59] <Stroganoff> rather quake3 for ever than using wine for games ^^
[02:59] <fab4fan> can you rename a mount point after it's been created ?
[02:59] <ythe1300> Schmiez : let me boot my box up brb
[02:59] <Schmiez> ok
[03:00] <kindofabuzz> so you're gonna install windows just so your usb headphones will work?
[03:00] <kindofabuzz> i'm ure there's a fix for it
[03:00] <cory__> cedega sounded like a good idea, but i dont wanna pay
[03:00] <daved> cory: you have to pay for windows
[03:00] <cory__> i dont
[03:00] <cory__> it comes free for me
[03:00] <kindofabuzz> cedage cheaper than windows
[03:00] <icesword> you ve payed to it
[03:01] <Stroganoff> ok all, lets move this cedega-vs-windows talk to #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:01] <Stroganoff> cory__: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoverGrub
[03:01] <kindofabuzz> anyone tried Mepis?  any good?
[03:01] <w30> kindofabuzz: Does ndiswrapper work with all windows drivers or just with a few like wireless and winmodems?
[03:01] <cory__> well i tried to dualboot ubuntu from windows XP, but my partition with windows on it dissapeared
[03:01] <kindofabuzz> w30: dunno =)
[03:01] <cory__> so i cant access that. and my hd is 100gigs smaller according to Gparted
[03:01] <fab4fan> cory:  you have to be careful when you set up the partition for ubuntu to not write over the windows partition
[03:02] <digitalslave> and you dont HAVE to pay for cedega - build it yourself or use wine
[03:02] <neosix> Hello! I'm using Fluxbuntu and I don't know how to change cursor theme?
[03:02] <cory__> and fdisk -l says its only 200g harddrive
[03:02] <ythe1300> Schmiez:  booting into safe GFX now :)
[03:02] <neosix> can anybody help me?
[03:02] <Schmiez> ythe1300: already there
[03:02] <w30> kindofabuzz: it would be kool if ndiswrapper would make some of these laptop cameras work.
[03:02] <Schmiez> lol
[03:02] <ythe1300> Schmiez: me :P
[03:02] <Schmiez> ooh
[03:02] <Schmiez> heh
[03:02] <fab4fan> I could use some help with renaming mount points and getting them to automount at startup so they appear on my desktop
[03:03] <ythe1300> can you start X?
[03:03] <Stroganoff> neosix: sudo apt-get install xfce4-mcs-plugins
[03:03] <Stroganoff> thats the easy way
[03:03] <Schmiez> start X?
[03:03] <ythe1300> (   startx   )
[03:03] <ythe1300> Schmiez
[03:03] <Schmiez> what do i type?
[03:03] <ythe1300> Schmiez just startx
[03:04] <Schmiez> oh lol
[03:04] <Nasra> !azureas
[03:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about azureas - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[03:04] <Schmiez> startx gave me a black screen
[03:04] <ythe1300> :(
[03:04] <ythe1300> would have been to easy ;)
[03:04] <DG19075> !azureus |Nasra
[03:04] <ubotu> Nasra: azureus is a popular bittorent client written in Java, installation instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AzureusHowTo
[03:04] <nebnav> help! if i dd'd my hard drive and created an .img (compressed it) could i somehow mount a partition with this image? plz help!
[03:05] <Schmiez> lol yeah of course, its never that easy :P
[03:05] <kindofabuzz> Schmiez: gnome?
[03:05] <w30> fab4fan: you need to edit /etc/fstab. If you don't know how then check out google and see what advice comes up there.
[03:05] <daved> nebnav: (as root)   mount -o loop /path/to/.img  /mnt/point
[03:05] <Schmiez> kindofabuzz: hmm? what about gnome?
[03:05] <kindofabuzz> what WM are you trying to start?
[03:05] <Schmiez> ubuntu
[03:06] <Schmiez> i've got an ATI Raedon 9250 PCI card
[03:06] <kindofabuzz> so gnome?
[03:06] <Schmiez> and i can't get ubuntu to show up with it
[03:06] <Schmiez> yea gnome
[03:06] <ythe1300> Schmiez: try this dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:06] <nebnav> daved: i know about loop devices, but could i mount the image as the main hard drive and use it.
[03:06] <kindofabuzz> try sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[03:06] <w30> fab4fan: "/dev/hda3       /diri           ext3    defaults 1 1"; thats opne of mine
[03:06] <w30> opne/one
[03:06] <daved> nebnav: you want to boot off of it?
[03:06] <fab4fan> can i rename a mountpoint in Gparted ?
[03:06] <kjp2> so I've followed the instrucitons on the wiki, to get zfs working through FUSE but it fails, restarting with a error found at pastebin: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60821/
[03:07] <kjp2> any thoughts ?
[03:07] <Schmiez> ythe1300: i tried doing that :/
[03:07] <ythe1300> :(
[03:07] <ythe1300> nothing?
[03:07] <fab4fan> w30:  in your fstab file ?
[03:07] <Schmiez> it walks me through the whole procedure
[03:07] <kindofabuzz> Schmiez: try sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[03:07] <nebnav> daved: yeah i know it sounds crazy but some sort of netboot or configure grub or something. pxe maybe.
[03:07] <Schmiez> alright give me one moment
[03:08] <daved> kjp: pastie the contents of /etc/init.d/zfs-fuse
[03:08] <redbrain> hey join #linuxoutlaws :)
[03:08] <w30> fab4fan: yep! "/dev/hda5       /mnt/win_c      vfat    user,exec,rw,noauto,iocharset=utf8,umask=0      0 0"; another example
[03:08] <redbrain> or listen to the podcast bring linux user community closer together
[03:08] <redbrain> :)
[03:08] <daved> nebnav: it's technically possible, and you want to look towards advanced grub configs.. pxe and netboot arent going to help you
[03:08] <Schmiez> kindofabuzz: i just get a black screen like always
[03:09] <kindofabuzz> yeah your xorg.conf is screwed
[03:09] <Schmiez> what can i do to fix it?
[03:09] <w30> fab4fan: the mount point has to exist. like /diri and /mnt/win_c
[03:09] <kindofabuzz> did you do what ythe1300 suggested?
[03:09] <Schmiez> yeah
[03:09] <kindofabuzz> hmm
[03:10] <ythe1300> Schmiez: the command I gave you earlier should have worked :(
[03:10] <Schmiez> i finish it and i dont know what to do afterwards
[03:10] <kindofabuzz> reboot?
[03:10] <fab4fan> w30: so I create the mountpoint first ?
[03:10] <Schmiez> yeah i try that and i still have the same problem
[03:10] <w30> fab4fan: the command mkdir works for that if you don't know.
[03:10] <w30> fab4fan: yep.
[03:10] <ythe1300> Schmiez: can you boot with the live CD?
[03:10] <fab4fan> w30:  thanks, I know the command mkdir
[03:10] <Schmiez> no
[03:10] <ythe1300> (make sure you have the onboard off)
[03:10] <kindofabuzz> hit trl-alt f7
[03:11] <kindofabuzz> ctrl
[03:11] <nebnav> daved: replace the ramdisk or something? probably not.
[03:11] <Schmiez> me?
[03:11] <fab4fan> w30:  about 7 years ago I used Unix on the job, but it's been a w hile
[03:11] <kindofabuzz> just to make sure you're not in a vt
[03:11] <Schmiez> nothin happens when i do that
[03:11] <kindofabuzz> yeah Schmiez
[03:11] <daved> nebnav: the "easiest" (and take that with a grain of salt) way would be to resize partitions to make room for a paritition the same size or bigger than your .img,  dd the .img on to it and boot from that
[03:11] <w30> fab4fan: in fstab be sure and use the complete path with / and everything for clarity.
[03:11] <fab4fan> w30:  what are the parameters "1  1" in the fstab mean ?
[03:11] <Schmiez> i couldn't get the live cd to work either, so i used the alternate
[03:12] <daved> kjp2: paste the contents of /etc/init.d/zfs-fuse onto paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[03:12] <kjp2> daved:  coming.
[03:12] <tehquickness> Has anyone notice that gnome 2.22 is slow?
[03:12] <w30> fab4fan: look at man fstab for that stuff
[03:12] <Schmiez> kindofabuzz: nothing happens when i do that
[03:12] <rick_> hi im having trouble with gnome, http://pastebin.com/f7da51a6e
[03:12] <fab4fan> w30: got it, forgot about "man"
[03:12]  * RabidWeezle looks at his dvd::rip
[03:12] <kindofabuzz> Schmiez: is this a fresh install?
[03:12] <darkcrab> Problem: if I try to run my games in fullscreen while desktop effects and emerald is enabled, I get a blinking box on the screen, is there a fix?
[03:13] <daved> rick: i have to say that's the first textual rickroll ive seen
[03:13] <Schmiez> kindofabuzz: yeah, i installed it just a few hours ago
[03:13] <RabidWeezle> oh great, I ripped it in spanish
[03:13]  * RabidWeezle smacks head
[03:13] <rick_> daved: :)
[03:13] <Schmiez> i've been using ubuntu with my onboard gfx
[03:13] <ROMES> help
[03:13] <kindofabuzz> Schmiez: so when you boot up you just get a black screen from the beginning?
[03:13] <ROMES> !help
[03:13] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[03:13] <kjp2> daved: here's the file. (after the **** line) http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60823/
[03:14] <Schmiez> when i boot up, it gets to the ubuntu logo, and the bar, the bar fills up, then right afterwards (where ubuntu would start ) i just get a black screen
[03:14] <Stroganoff> lol @ ROMES
[03:14] <RabidWeezle> anyone good with dvd::rip?
[03:14] <ythe1300> :/
[03:14] <kindofabuzz> hmm
[03:15] <darkcrab> Problem: if I try to run my games in fullscreen while desktop effects and emerald is enabled, I get a blinking box on the screen, is there a fix?
[03:15] <nebnav> daved: thanks!
[03:15] <Schmiez> when i boot up, it gets to the ubuntu logo, and the bar, the bar fills up, then right afterwards (where ubuntu would start ) i just get a black screen
[03:15] <RabidWeezle> darkcrab, I always shut down compiz for fullscreen games
[03:15] <Schmiez> oops
[03:15] <Schmiez> sorry
[03:15] <yowshi> grrr virtualbox is useless for games
[03:15] <darkcrab> so it is a known bug rabidweezle?
[03:16] <Stroganoff> yowshi, monkey island 2 runs well in vbox ;)
[03:16] <sap> Hi, would someone be knowing a quick (easier) method of converting ~ 30 images from .GIF to .JPEG ? ( i.e. without having to open each individual image in GIMP and choosing "save as" option individually for each of those images , which is time consuming)
[03:16] <daved> kjp2, change the line   if [ $COUNTER = 10 ]; then   to have   == instead of =
[03:16] <Stroganoff> one should use scummVM though
[03:16] <yowshi> Stroganoff: i just tried to run starcontrol 2
[03:16] <RabidWeezle> darkcrab, it's something to do with glx and compositing, it's ALWAYS alot faster to disable compositing before you run a gl/glx game
[03:16] <yowshi> and before that starcraft
[03:16] <cyclonut> need some bash help with the following script: http://pastebin.com/d6b561960
[03:16] <Schmiez> :(
[03:16] <darkcrab> k thank you Rabidweezle
[03:17] <yowshi> Stroganoff: it just runs so freaking slow
[03:17] <justinmiller87> Is there a service I can stop and restart in order to have my user groups refresh without logging out and back in?
[03:17] <Schmiez> you have any other ideas kindofabuzz, or ythe1300?
[03:17] <cabrioleur> Stroganoff, it runs well in dosbox too.
[03:17] <cyclonut> lines 13-19 are the issue. if its parmater set to stacked, it does not work properly
[03:17] <Stroganoff> yowshi: use dosbox
[03:17] <w30> darkcrab: do you have a nvidia propriatory driver?
[03:17] <yowshi> starcraft is a windows game starcontrol 2 is a dos
[03:17] <ythe1300> Schmiez: no man that's kind of messed up
[03:17] <kindofabuzz> Schmiez: try rebooting into recovery mode, hit esc so you get the grub
[03:17] <Stroganoff> cabrioleur, i like you lurking factoid bots
[03:17] <cyclonut> ooops replace line 19 with xrandr --output VGA --$movetoside LVDS
[03:17] <kindofabuzz> if you don't already get it
[03:17] <cattellar> hi, I have a network with Uubuntu 7.10 and Windows Vista, I want to print from my vista laptop, I can but I have to click in the network and put a username and password to do it. Is there a way to do it automatically without submitting a password?
[03:17] <Schmiez> ok
[03:18] <darkcrab> no w30, I have a integrated intel chipset with an intel graphics card.
[03:18] <yowshi> and yeah i would normally use dosbox for starcon 2 but for starcraft wines gotten a little screwy for starcraft
[03:18] <cyclonut> wouldnt ya know it, as soon as I ask it works
[03:18] <kjp2> daved: same error.
[03:18] <cabrioleur> Stroganoff, I'm a long term dosbox user, as well as dosemu. I need my Betrayal at Krondor from time to time and dosbox is a lifesaver.
[03:18] <darkcrab> dosbox is amazing
[03:18] <Schmiez> alright i'm in recovery mode
[03:18] <Stroganoff> didn't mean or wanted to know that, cabri.
[03:18] <Schmiez> now what?
[03:18] <kindofabuzz> Schmiez: now do the dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[03:19] <yowshi> cabrioleur: yeah but i want virtualbox to run xo so i have a sure fire way to run any windows game i want
[03:19] <yowshi> wine is buggy and breaks from release to release
[03:19] <kindofabuzz> Schmiez: i'm not a pro at this, i'm pretty much googlin' for ya lol
[03:19] <daved> kjp: does "stop" work and "restart" not work?
[03:19] <cabrioleur> yowshi, invest in vmware.
[03:19] <justinmiller87> Can I refresh my group memberships without logging out and back in?
[03:19] <yowshi> i like wine it just isnt as reliable as i would like
[03:19] <kjp2> daved: stop fails as well.
[03:20] <yowshi> cabrioleur: why should i pay twice to run an os?\
[03:20] <RabidWeezle> dosbox is great, but you know, I noticed though that the windows version runs descent better, maybe I need to use their svn :/
[03:20] <kindofabuzz> the newest wine is pretty good compared to other versions
[03:20] <cabrioleur> yowshi, you pay 1 for os, and 1 for virtualization that works.
[03:20] <tbwnoob> #winehq
[03:20] <RabidWeezle> wine is getting better by the day it seems, I can't wait for their 1.0 release
[03:20] <mackid> yowshi, if you want a sure-fire way to run any windows game you want, then buy cedega
[03:20] <w30> darkcrab: the binary driver from Nvidia is causing problems like that and also loosing f7 when switched from one of the other f(n) consoles. I used flglx or whatever it was in beryl to get away from that.
[03:20] <yowshi> RabidWeezle: i found that the windows version ran sloooooow. but i was using a p2 450 at the time
[03:20] <yowshi> mackid: wine > cedega
[03:21] <tbwnoob> How do you change your ati depth to 16 without crashing your xserver
[03:21] <cabrioleur> mackid, cedega doesn't work for all games.
[03:21] <orudie> what is a name of a graph library ?
[03:21] <RabidWeezle> I'm running a 2.1 ghz, but did you try frame skipping yowshi ?
[03:21] <CRINGO> I have an extra internal hdd that I've been trying to add to fstab under a different directory, but it won't mount, I have to mount it with root and it calls it "disk" like it's an external hdd, and each time I boot, it has a different UUID, anyone know why this may be?
[03:21] <mackid> yowshi: or install windows, then, i guess. and yes, you're right cabrioleur
[03:21] <RabidWeezle> frameskipping can mean a world of difference in dosbox
[03:22] <MrVirus> Hey is anyone useing proftpd?
[03:22] <Schmiez> kindofabuzz: is their anyhing specific i should put in the reconfigure when i'm going through this?
[03:22] <zachwlewis> I've been trying to install cnet (a network simulator), but every time I try to run make, I get the same error: warning: cast from pointer to integer of different size. What should I look for in changing the default int size to match the one on my 64-bit machine?
[03:22] <ythe1300> Schmiez: you may want to post this one up in the forums and see if a mod can help out
[03:22] <kindofabuzz> not that i can think of, maybe try vesa?
[03:22] <mackid> zachwlewis: it's not an error if it's a warning
[03:22] <calc> zachwlewis: good luck with that
[03:22] <ythe1300> Schmiez: just the video
[03:22] <MrVirus> Im having a permissions problem with proftpd, I cant amend/reset any files
[03:22] <wenceslao> hello every one
[03:22] <calc> zachwlewis: its probably not 64bit clean
[03:22] <cabrioleur> RabidWeezle, It's strange, but my dosbox on slackware (from linuxpackages) runs times faster that on anything else. Never understood why. Must be the config.
[03:23] <zachwlewis> calc: The way it's set up, it treats all warning as errors and fails to compile.
[03:23] <wenceslao> new to lenux and this chat
[03:23] <wenceslao> can some one please teach me more
[03:23] <calc> zachwlewis: its probably not really a warning for a 64bit machine
[03:23] <zachwlewis> calc: I've not got a 64-bit version of Ubuntu installed.
[03:23] <cabrioleur> wenceslao, you need a book!
[03:23] <calc> zachwlewis: an int and a pointer are different sizes on 64bit systems
[03:23] <wenceslao> i have one
[03:23] <kindofabuzz> man Gov't Mule rocks =)
[03:23] <calc> zachwlewis: oh i see
[03:23] <ythe1300> kindofabuzz:  sounds like a good Idea, I know that my 3870 won't boot with the Ati driver.
[03:23] <wenceslao> but i also want to make more friends cabrioleur
[03:23] <mackid> zachwlewis: you should... consider.. installing amd64 ubuntu if you have a 64bit machine
[03:23] <RabidWeezle> cabrioleur, probably was compiled better by the packager
[03:23] <calc> zachwlewis: so you are running ubuntu i386 then?
[03:24] <CRINGO> I have an extra internal hdd that I've been trying to add to fstab under a different directory, but it won't mount, I have to mount it with root and it calls it "disk" like it's an external hdd, and each time I boot, it has a different UUID, anyone know why this may be?
[03:24] <zachwlewis> calc: How can I check that? I'm actually not 100%.
[03:24] <wenceslao> how can i update my fire fox software
[03:24] <Schmiez> all done and now rebooting
[03:24] <donkey7186> How do i get someone to remote desktop my computer??????????
[03:24] <mackid> zachwlewis: $ uname -a
[03:24] <ythe1300> Schmiez: Crosses fingers
[03:24] <cabrioleur> wenceslao, then ask questions if you don't understand something. Beside, I'm glad you are trying Linux out.
[03:24]  * Schmiez crosses finger
[03:24] <Schmiez> s
[03:24] <kindofabuzz> zachwlewis: what is your processor? if just a pentium then yeah you have i386
[03:24] <calc> zachwlewis: assuming you are running the 32bit verison of Ubuntu then removing the -werror from the compiler options should let it compile
[03:24] <fk7_se> hello everyone
[03:24] <wenceslao> i have already downloaded the newest version
[03:25] <wenceslao> but the comp is still running the old version
[03:25] <kindofabuzz> Schmiez: hehe
[03:25] <zachwlewis> Linux cottontail 2.6.22-14-generic #1 SMP Sun Oct 14 21:45:15 GMT 2007 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[03:25] <calc> kindofabuzz: some pentium 4's can run amd64 version
[03:25] <wenceslao> can some one help me with that
[03:25] <nikrud> CRINGO the only reason it could have a new uuid is if you manually changed it, or the partition definition somehow got changed.
[03:25] <calc> zachwlewis: you are using the 64bit version
[03:25] <mackid> zachwlewis: that's amd64. hence x86_64
[03:25] <Schmiez> i got a bunch of text
[03:25] <fk7_se> i just got apache to work but i can't view any jpgs on my server, it says forbidden
[03:25] <RabidWeezle> wenceslao, is it a .run file or a tar.gz?
[03:25] <zachwlewis> calc: Okay, I see.
[03:25] <Schmiez> asking me to type in my ser login
[03:25] <ythe1300> calc: ?
[03:25] <kindofabuzz> calc: didn't know that, but why would you wanna do that?
[03:25] <calc> zachwlewis: so you can't make that code work as is, because its not written properly and won't work on 64bit
[03:25] <wenceslao> run file
[03:25] <w30> wenceslao: there are books out there now for you distribution if it's a major one.
[03:25] <kjp2> daved: any other ideas ?
[03:25] <donkey7186> How do i get someone to remote desktop my computer??????????
[03:25] <wenceslao> is ubuntu
[03:25] <calc> ythe1300: ?
[03:25] <fk7_se> vncviewer
[03:26] <cabrioleur> wenceslao, "chmod +x *.run", "./nameofthefile.run"
[03:26] <zachwlewis> calc: Any way to force it to run in 32-bit mode, or run a 32-bit emulator on my machine?
[03:26] <ythe1300> calc: there where no 64bit P4's
[03:26] <calc> zachwlewis: not easily
[03:26] <fk7_se> donkey: vncviewer
[03:26] <donkey7186> fk7_se how do i get that
[03:26] <wenceslao> thx cabrioleur i will try it
[03:26] <w30> wenceslao: Also play around on Ubuntu.com and their forums and wiki's and howtos
[03:26] <Schmiez> ythe1300, kindofabuzz: i did it, rebooted, boot normally, and now i've got a text based login
[03:26] <RabidWeezle> wenceslao, right click the file, set the attributes that it can be executed, then in a terminal run it like: sudo ./nameoffile.run
[03:26] <calc> ythe1300: oh i think i am getting confused there were 'Pentium D' that were 64bit
[03:26] <fk7_se> type it into terminal, are you using ubuntu?
[03:26] <donkey7186> yes
[03:26] <ythe1300> Schmiez:
[03:26] <kindofabuzz> Schmiez: so making progress?
[03:26] <Schmiez> i hope this is
[03:26] <ythe1300> Schmiez: try start X now?
[03:26] <Schmiez> lol
[03:26] <wenceslao> ok rabidweezle let me do that
[03:26] <fk7_se> if you type vncviewer in terminal it will ask to the ip to connect to
[03:27] <kindofabuzz> Schmiez: is that the server ubuntu?
[03:27] <ythe1300> Schmiez: good chance it won't work but..
[03:27] <RabidWeezle> wenceslao, I would uninstall firefox from synaptic first
[03:27] <calc> ythe1300: actually the Pentium 4 620 was 64bit iirc
[03:27] <calc> http://processorfinder.intel.com/details.aspx?sSpec=SL8AB
[03:27] <RabidWeezle> since you are breaking away from apt-get when you install like that
[03:27] <justinmiller87> I did sudo adduser $USER groupx and I don't want to log out because I'm in the middle of something. Is there any way to refresh my group memberships without logging out?
[03:27] <calc> ^ evidence of 64bit P4's
[03:27] <calc> the Pentium D's were 64bit and so were the Pentium 4 6xx series
[03:28] <fk7_se> donkey: did it work?
[03:28] <Dr_willis> justinmiller87,  you could 'ssh in' or start a xterm with a login shell..perhaps.. but that would do it just for that one shell
[03:28] <kindofabuzz> Schmiez: status?
[03:28] <otg> wehjkbfjih
[03:28] <cabrioleur> Does anybody remember an easy book about linux? It was about magic, and using Linux was described as using magic, commands were spells etc? My little brother became a guru (on mac x) thanks to this book.
[03:28] <Dr_willis> justinmiller87,  its a bit of a pain :)
[03:28] <donkey7186> fk7_se i got the box to pop up
[03:28] <justinmiller87> Hmm, ssh into my localhost. Interesting.
[03:28] <zachwlewis> calc: I've got an install of Ubuntu on a vmWare machine on Windows. Do you think it would work there?
[03:28] <calc> zachwlewis: you could setup vmware or something like that to run a 32bit version of Ubuntu
[03:28] <Schmiez> it says fatal server error: no screens found  XIO: fatal IO error 104 (connection reset by peer)......
[03:28] <Schmiez> ect
[03:28] <zachwlewis> calc: hivemind.
[03:29] <donkey7186> fk7_se how do you get it to connect. when it asks for server do you type the ip? cause my ip isnt working if so
[03:29] <RabidWeezle> cabrioleur, best book I ever got was the dummies books
[03:29] <calc> zachwlewis: yes that might work, the code is buggy though in general so it might have other issues
[03:29] <cabrioleur> zachwlewis, sure it will.
[03:29] <zachwlewis> calc: What code is buggy in general?
[03:29] <calc> zachwlewis: casting int to pointer is a bad thing to do and shows that the person who wrote the code didn't know what they were doing
[03:29] <M4rotku> hello, i've been having a bit of a problem with my sound, in that it stopped working completely. =(
[03:29] <fk7_se> well you also have to turn desktop sharing on, on the computer you are connecting to
[03:29] <kindofabuzz> Schmiez: keep messing with the dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, change stuff around, try VESA
[03:29] <RabidWeezle> cabrioleur, the "secrets" books are really good too
[03:29] <Schmiez> try VESA?
[03:29] <zachwlewis> Okay, time for a new query.
[03:29]  * calc got to run, wife is nagging him to go to bed
[03:30] <cabrioleur> RabidWeezle, it was for kids, or with some kind of charm. I used manpages, but I wish I remember the name.
[03:30] <mackid> calc, zachwlewis: what about using 32-bit libraries? I run a 32-bit version of firefox, for example, on my amd64 install of ubuntu (so flash works)
[03:30] <Schmiez> kindofabuzz: what is VESA
[03:30] <fk7_se> it is under System-->Preferences-->Remote Desktop
[03:30] <zachwlewis> I have an nVidia 8800GT, and since I've installed it, I can't get any advanced graphics effects working. How can I install new drivers for it?
[03:30] <UncleChevitz> I want to access a directory that I don't have permission for (/var/lib/php4 wants root) I pointed my CLI there, but "ls" gives a permission denied, should I just change the directories permissions? or can I sudo and just don't know how?
[03:30] <kindofabuzz> you should have the VESA option when re configuring
[03:30] <Schmiez> where
[03:31] <ythe1300> calc: I stand corrected 620 does appear to be 64bit enabled
[03:31] <yowshi> RabidWeezle:  how do you adjust frame skipping in virtualbox?\
[03:31] <kindofabuzz> wait, wehn you rebooted you didn't do recovery again did ya?
[03:31] <RabidWeezle> cabrioleur, I started with Redhat 6 for dummies, linux in a nutshell (more complicated by oreilly), and linux secrets 13 years ago
[03:31] <cabrioleur> zachwlewis, you can install the newest ones from the official website. Just download them, uninstall what you have, and run the script.
[03:31] <Schmiez> kindofabuzz: no
[03:31] <RabidWeezle> yowshi, it's all in the man page "man dosbox"
[03:31] <yowshi> not dosbox
[03:32] <yowshi> i am not running starcraft in dosbox
[03:32] <RabidWeezle> oooh
[03:32] <zachwlewis> cabrioleur: What official site? nVidia? How do I uninstall my current drivers?
[03:32] <mackid> cabrioleur: is that the best way? I just checked "use restricted drivers" in some preference or system config program
[03:32] <RabidWeezle> I run starcraft in wine
[03:32] <Schmiez> kindofabuzz: no
[03:32] <cabrioleur> zachwlewis, find them in the synaptic tool. Yes, they have a nice, user friendly installer on nvidia.com.
[03:32] <kindofabuzz> what vid card you got Schmiez ?
[03:32] <zachwlewis> I installed some package from nVidia and have "use restricted drivers" checked, but it still doesn't work.
[03:32] <yowshi> RabidWeezle: lets see i have issues with how wine handles starcraft like the bnet problems
[03:32] <yowshi> screens not refreshing and stuff
[03:33] <ythe1300> kindofabuzz 9250
[03:33] <RabidWeezle> oh ouch
[03:33] <RabidWeezle> hrm
[03:33] <Schmiez> kindofabuzz: ATI Radeon 9250
[03:33] <mutantman> i have a problem guys
[03:33] <mutantman> can you help me?
[03:33] <RabidWeezle> I donno if virtual does frame skipping, I've never touched it
[03:33] <mackid> zachwlewis: go to system > preferences > display/graphics and see what driver you're using
[03:33] <kindofabuzz> try this, get back to your prompt
[03:33] <cabrioleur> zachwlewis, before you do that, I'm gonna ask you something.
[03:33] <yowshi> so i installed windows xp in virtualbox with the hope of being able to run games fluidly
[03:33] <Schmiez> ok
[03:33] <Schmiez> recovery mode?
[03:33] <cabrioleur> zachwlewis, do you have a 3d acceleration?
[03:33] <mutantman> i need to know how to make an urban terror dedicated server!!!
[03:33] <mutantman> i need to know how to make an urban terror dedicated server!!!
[03:33] <yowshi> but games run horribly slow in wirtualbox
[03:33] <mutantman> i need to know how to make an urban terror dedicated server!!!
[03:33] <kindofabuzz> i don't think it matters
[03:33] <Flannel> !repeat | mutantman
[03:33] <mutantman> i need to know how to make an urban terror dedicated server!!! ^1please help meh
[03:33] <ubotu> mutantman: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[03:33] <cabrioleur> mutantman, go to their website.
[03:33] <donkey7186> fk7_se i did the remote desktop but what is my ip? the one where it says user can view desktop using this command?
[03:33] <mutantman> i need to know how to make an urban terror dedicated server!!! ^1please help meh
[03:33] <talcite> does anyone know where firefox stores security certificates that get verified? I want to use one with wget, but I can't find the certificates
[03:34] <aoupi> mutantman: calm down
[03:34] <Schmiez> ok
[03:34] <zachwlewis> cabrioleur: No, it will only let me keep the "none" setting in the appearance manager.
[03:34] <RabidWeezle> first stop spamming, then I'll tell you
[03:34] <RabidWeezle> lol
[03:34] <mutantman> im sorry
[03:34] <aoupi> mutantman: no one will help you when you spam, better luck next time
[03:34] <w30> zachwlewis: us synaptic and type in nvidia in the search box and look for the nvidia drivers. After that you need to enable the propriatory drivers in the preferences>non-free drivers or whatever it is.
[03:34] <mutantman> i never used this bfore
[03:34] <cory__> This is lame!!!
[03:34] <Schmiez> well i'm already in recovery mode
[03:34] <Schmiez> so i'll do it here i gues
[03:34] <kindofabuzz> mutantman: have you tried the urban terror forums??
[03:34] <Schmiez> guess
[03:34] <mutantman> yes
[03:34] <mutantman> i looked everywhere
[03:34] <mutantman>  i cant find anything!!!
[03:34] <cabrioleur> zachwlewis, open a terminal, and type glxgears, and tell me if you can see the wheels.
[03:34] <rfiatt> guys, i need help from someone that runs World of Warcraft on Wine
[03:34] <RabidWeezle> I'll pm you
[03:34] <cory__> is urban terrorist any good?
[03:34] <zachwlewis> cabrioleur: What drivers should I look for to uninstall?
[03:34] <kindofabuzz> if i find how to do it, you owe me $20
[03:35] <calc> mackid: that might work but he would have to make it compile as 32bit code as well instead of native (64bit)
[03:35] <Schmiez> me or mutantman? lol
[03:35]  * calc really has to go now, bbl
[03:35] <zachwlewis> zachwlewis@cottontail:~$ glxgears
[03:35] <zachwlewis> Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".

[03:35] <kindofabuzz> mutant
[03:35] <ythe1300> @ kindofabuzz lol
[03:35] <Schmiez> ok
[03:35] <mackid> calc yeah exactly. ok bye
[03:35] <mojo> Hi - Does anyone know the status of pulseaudio and jack?  i asked in the ubuntustudio chat but everyone seems to be afk atm.  I am trying to figure out from the forums, but a link to a project status page or something would be appreciated, or an answer if someone happens to be up on that
[03:35] <mutantman> PLZ HELP
[03:35] <mutantman> i need to know how to make an urban terror dedicated server!!! ^1please help meh
[03:35] <cabrioleur> zachwlewis, the problem is that the drivers are rarely a problem. 95% it's your xorg.conf file or compiz itself.
[03:35] <kindofabuzz> mutantman: http://www.urbanterror.net/urt_manual/server.htm
[03:35] <UncleChevitz> I want to access a directory that I don't have permission for (/var/lib/php4 wants root) I pointed my CLI there, but "ls" gives a permission denied, should I just change the directories permissions? or can I sudo and just don't know how?
[03:35] <mutantman> k brb
[03:35] <bazhang> !helpme | mutantman
[03:35] <ubotu> mutantman: Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience
[03:35] <kindofabuzz> mutantman: you didn't look very hard
[03:35] <Flannel> mutantman: please stop repeating your question.  Wait at least 15 minutes between repeats.
[03:35] <mackid> zachwlewis: system menu > administration > screens & graphics > graphics card tab, what is listed under driver
[03:36] <Schmiez> lol
[03:36] <Schmiez> alright
[03:36] <Schmiez> so i'm in the recovery mode now
[03:36] <cabrioleur> UncleChevitz, "sudo ls /var/lib/php4"
[03:36] <mutantman> i was at this site!!!
[03:36] <mutantman> it doesnt say anything...
[03:36] <CRINGO> oh, nikrud, you were helping me earlier before I passed out :p, my /home wasn't mounting by itself, so you told me to do fsck in safe mode, i did with -n just to see what would happen and it said there were errors, but it said I was mounted to /, so i did umount / and then ran fsck and it said there weren't any errors
[03:36] <Flannel> !enter | mutantman
[03:36] <ubotu> mutantman: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[03:36] <zachwlewis> vesa
[03:36] <UncleChevitz> k thnx duh I guess
[03:37] <kindofabuzz> Schmiez: do a sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:37] <mackid> zachwlewis: click the menu and try to change it to nvidia, is nvidia listed?
[03:37] <nikrud> CRINGO so, did you do the check on home and it work aftewards?
[03:37] <CRINGO> nikrud, my fstab had 1s and 2s on multiple fs's for fsck, so i took them all to 0 for all except / and /home and it boots fine
[03:37] <RabidWeezle> mutantman, check your pm
[03:37] <mutantman> lol how?
[03:37] <Volkodav> when pidgin 2.4.0 will be in repos?
[03:37] <RabidWeezle> what irc client?
[03:37] <zachwlewis> mackid: Should I use the "Choose driver by model" radio button?
[03:37] <mackid> zachwlewis: under "choose driver by name"
[03:37] <kindofabuzz> mutantman: http://www.urbanterror.net/urt_manual/server.htmhttp://www.urbanterror.net/urt_manual/server.htmhttp://www.urbanterror.net/urt_manual/server.htm
[03:37] <zachwlewis> mackid: Or, in the choose driver by name>
[03:37] <nikrud> cool, now I remember, the fsck stuff in fstab
[03:37] <mutantman> IT DOESNT HELP
[03:37] <Flannel> mutantman: Looks like it says *everything* you need on that page.  What are you having trouble with?
[03:38] <zachwlewis> One is just called "nvidia". Is this it?
[03:38] <mutantman> i cant make a dedicated server
[03:38] <rfiatt> does anyone runs WoW on Wine, pm me plis i have some questions
[03:38] <mackid> zachwlewis: yes that's the one
[03:38] <kindofabuzz> Schmiez: get it open?
[03:38] <ythe1300> Good Night all
[03:38] <CRINGO> nikrud, i think i thought that if i did fsck / it would include /home, i was real tired XD
[03:38] <mutantman> it wont pull one up
[03:38] <Schmiez> kindofabuzz: ok i did it
[03:38] <zachwlewis> I hit Okay.
[03:38] <zachwlewis> Nothing really changed.
[03:38] <mackid> zachwlewis: ok, is it still selected under "driver" now?
[03:38] <ythe1300> Schmiez: if you can't figure it out post in the forums :)
[03:38] <nikrud> CRINGO lol, being tired is not good for the old attention thingy
[03:38] <Flannel> !doesntwork | mutantman
[03:38] <ubotu> mutantman: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[03:38] <kindofabuzz> look for defoptions=vga
[03:38] <mutantman> it wont pull up a ded server
[03:38] <Nasra> sudo upt-get install .....to install about for uninstall?
[03:38] <kindofabuzz> or something like that
[03:39] <mutantman> !doesntwork
[03:39] <mackid> zachwlewis: let me rephrase, does "driver" in the screens & graphics admin pane say "nvidia" now?
[03:39] <sjovan> any one that knows the command for seeing what port a prog uses?
[03:39] <daved> kjp2: still around?
[03:39] <mackid> sjovan: google it
[03:39] <CRINGO> nikrud, but in fstab, the last numbers, they're for the order fsck does right? So there shouldn't be two different filesystems with 1 or 2 correct?
[03:39] <kjp2> daved: yes.
[03:39] <Flannel> mutantman: Have you tried their IRC channel?  They're actually be able to help you.
[03:39] <zachwlewis> mackid: After I clicked okay and closed the thing out, I reopened it and it went back to vesa.
[03:39] <Nasra> what is the command for installing a program?
[03:39] <cabrioleur> mutantman, did you try to set up your server.cfg correctly?
[03:39] <daved> kjp2: try changing /bin/sh to /bin/bash at the top
[03:39] <mutantman> yes
[03:39] <mutantman> i have a good server.cfg
[03:40] <RabidWeezle> sjovan, sounds like a usefull app for sure if you find one
[03:40] <mutantman> it wont start the server is the prob
[03:40] <zachwlewis> mackid: Before I close it, it says it right now.
[03:40] <sjovan> mackid: yes, that was the plan if no one gave me the awnser
[03:40] <nikrud> CRINGO it doesn't matter, I have two with 1 and two with 2
[03:40] <CRINGO> nikrud, i think that's what was throwing it off
[03:40] <cabrioleur> mutantman, what's the error.
[03:40] <Schmiez> wait
[03:40] <Schmiez> how do i look for it
[03:40] <CRINGO> ah

[03:40] <zachwlewis> mackid: I just clicked "test" and it closed the window down. :(
[03:40] <mackid> zachwlewis: try system menu > administration > restricted drivers manager
[03:40] <kindofabuzz> move the cursor up and down?
[03:40] <mutantman> When i go to start server, and dedicate to internet, it wont bring up the ded server windows
[03:40] <CRINGO> nikrud, is there a 3,4,5, or does that number only go to 2?
[03:40] <kindofabuzz> arrow keys?
[03:40] <mutantman> When i go to start server, and dedicate to internet, it wont bring up the ded server window*
[03:40] <kjp2> daved: woah. that worked. why the hell did that work ?
[03:40] <CRINGO> that's what i was wondering
[03:40] <kindofabuzz> wait just close that
[03:40] <mackid> zachwlewis: is there anything listed in the restricted drivers manager?
[03:40] <Schmiez> i got a screen with a grey bar up top, absolutely nothing in the middle, then a list of commands at the bottom
[03:41] <kindofabuzz> ctrlx
[03:41] <daved> kjp2: you on hardy beta?
[03:41] <RabidWeezle> what's the port or program in question?
[03:41] <kindofabuzz> just close it
[03:41] <cabrioleur> mutantman, server windows? there is no server windows...
[03:41] <zachwlewis> mackid: The only one is Atheros HAL. It is enabled and in use.
[03:41] <RabidWeezle> sjovan,
[03:41] <nikrud> CRINGO 2 as far as I've ever seen. I will say that I'm fuzzy on those, just know enough to know that they don't affect mounting ;)
[03:41] <kjp2> daved: no 7.10
[03:41] <Schmiez> oh
[03:41] <Schmiez> closed
[03:41] <mutantman> i mean like
[03:41] <mutantman> the console
[03:41] <daved> kjp2: looks like at some point ubuntu started symlinking /bin/sh to /bin/dash instead of /bin/bash
[03:41] <mutantman> the server running u know?
[03:41] <daved> so bash-only crap doesnt work
[03:41] <daved> took me forever to figure out what that == wouldnt work
[03:42] <mackid> zachwlewis: weird, nvidia should be listed.. i don't really know at this point, try googling for ubuntu nvidia driver
[03:42] <kindofabuzz> actually i'm just gonna give you the link i'm reading, i gotta piss, look at the responses towrds the bottom
[03:42] <mackid> zachwlewis: or maybe someone else can help you
[03:42] <Schmiez> ok
[03:42] <cabrioleur> mutantman, what you have when you execute ioUrTded.i386?
[03:42] <sjovan> RabidWeezle: found it :D netstat -anp|grep <id or name>
[03:42] <kjp2> daved: ah. great.
[03:42] <kindofabuzz> Schmiez: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usplash/+bug/63558
[03:42] <CRINGO> nikrud, okay, well... I'm not sure what's going on then, maybe I'll run fsck on /home and I'll do that other hdd too, not sure why it won't mount it with fstab
[03:42] <mutantman> it wont execute
[03:42] <zachwlewis> mackid: Okay. Thanks for all your help. :)
[03:42] <RabidWeezle> nice
[03:42] <sjovan> that was one lucky google :D
[03:42] <mackid> zachwlewis: no problem :)
[03:42] <cabrioleur> mutantman, "sudo chmod +x ioUrTded.i386"
[03:42]  * RabidWeezle copies that to a notepad for later use
[03:42] <mutantman> kk one sec
[03:42] <nikrud> CRINGO it's happening to someone else tonight, can't figure it eather
[03:42] <Flannel> mutantman: Go to the Urban Terror IRC channel, and ask there.  We have no idea how that server works, they'll have a much better chance of helping you.
[03:43] <mackid> sjovan: excellent
[03:43] <CRINGO> nikrud, what's their name?
[03:43] <yowshi> anyone know how to get games to run at decent speeds in a virtualbox os?
[03:43] <nikrud> CRINGO steven1
[03:43] <cabrioleur> yowshi, pac man
[03:43] <RabidWeezle> mutantman, Flannel is right, with specific software problems, it's always best to ask the people who make the software
[03:43] <CRINGO> okay
[03:43] <mutantman> ok
[03:43] <daved> kjp2: that script also has numerous bugs in it btw :P
[03:43] <yowshi> cabrioleur: pac man?
[03:44] <daved> kjp2: but i fixed them all and it still wouldnt run, was driving me mad
[03:44] <RabidWeezle> mutantman, I wouldn't goto a windows help channel to ask about problems with EZ Cd creator
[03:44] <kjp2> daved: I didn't write it.
[03:44] <cabrioleur> mutantman, it's everywhere on the internet now. Abandonware they say.
[03:44] <mutantman> ?
[03:44] <cabrioleur> mutantman, did you try to run it now?
[03:44] <mutantman> it said
[03:44] <mutantman> chmod: cannot access `iourtded.i386': No such file or directory
[03:44] <daved> kjp: *nod* just saying :)
[03:45] <CRINGO> nikrud, maybe with my other hdd, the slave master jumpers aren't set right? I could pull it out and double check but blah if I don't need to.
[03:45] <cabrioleur> mutantman, use capital letters.
[03:45] <nikrud> CRINGO not sure
[03:45] <prince_jammys> mutantman: case sensitive
[03:45] <cabrioleur> mutantman, ioUrTded.i386
[03:45] <unkhot> Hello, on a chroot, what is the way to use locales too, wich files do I need? /usr/share/locales only does not work, any idea? thanks
[03:45] <cabrioleur> mutantman, I want you to run this server because I really enjoy this game :-)
[03:45] <Nasra> what is the program to uninstall a program?
[03:45] <Nasra> thanks...
[03:45] <mutantman> one sec
[03:45] <zachwlewis> Where is the default runlevel stored in Ubuntu 7.10?
[03:46] <mutantman> o ty =)
[03:46] <Nasra> I mean the command
[03:46] <prince_jammys> Nasra: sudo apt-get remove progname  (if you installed with apt)
[03:46] <CRINGO> okay nikrud, Steven1, I'll be back once I figure out what's going on and let you know
[03:46] <Dr_willis> zachwlewis,  ubuntu dosent really use runlevels like other disrtos do.
[03:46] <Flannel> zachwlewis: /etc/event.d/ [something]
[03:46] <lemcott> I need help uninstalling ubuntu
[03:46] <Dr_willis> !upstart | zachwlewis
[03:46] <sjovan> but this i don't get ---> http://pastebin.com/d68cd9040 <--- the tut talked about port 14534, but what with all the other ports? don't i need to open them on the router? it's for the same prog...
[03:46] <ubotu> zachwlewis: Upstart is meant to replace the old Sys V Init system with an event-driven init model.  For more information please see: http://upstart.ubuntu.com/
[03:46] <mutantman> hmm
[03:46] <mutantman> still wont work
[03:47] <mutantman> o wait
[03:47] <zachwlewis> This driver wants me to close X and set the runlevel to VGA.
[03:47] <Nasra> prince_jammys.....wannna uninstall the exaile music player....
[03:47] <Flannel> mutantman: Ask the Urban Terror people.  We have no idea what its looking for, and as such, why it's failing
[03:47] <Dr_willis> zachwlewis,  so basicially it saying 'close X' :)
[03:47] <prince_jammys> Nasra: sudo apt-get remove exaile (most likely)
[03:47] <zachwlewis> Okay. How do I do that? :P
[03:47] <lemcott> I used gpartitioner to make my second HDD a FAT32, i was hoping that i could just go into vista and format it
[03:47] <Nasra> thanks...
[03:47] <cabrioleur> Flannel, I do have an idea. I've done this before multiple times.
[03:47] <lemcott> but now GRUB is giving me error 17
[03:47] <Dr_willis> zachwlewis,  sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop - WE do not advise using the nvidia or ati video driver installers... good luck.
[03:48] <lemcott> and I cant even get in to fix it!
[03:48] <zachwlewis> So, what nVidia driver should I use to run my 8800GT?
[03:48] <sean_> Is there a special channel to deal with hardy bugs or is it just here?
[03:48] <cabrioleur> lemcott, go to your windows boot cd, and go to command prompt. (fix something option)
[03:48] <Flannel> sean_: #ubuntu+1
[03:48] <Dr_willis> zachwlewis,  i use the ones that restricted-manager installed here.
[03:48] <bazhang> lemcott: what is on the other partition and are you going to reinstall ubuntu?
[03:48] <mutantman> ok i did that command
[03:48] <sean_> Flannel, I just read that. X_X
[03:48] <sean_> thank you
[03:48] <mutantman> it didnt say anything , but no errors
[03:48] <Dr_willis> zachwlewis,  had no problems with them. But others have i hear.
[03:48] <cabrioleur> lemcott, then type fixmbr or mbrfix. It will correct the problem for you.
[03:48] <zachwlewis> Yeah. Is there a way to just uninstall all my graphics drivers and let ubuntu find new ones?
[03:48] <lemcott> cabrioleur, i dont have a windows vista boot cd
[03:49] <nilminus> i have a question related to gdb. i am trying to create a breakpoint to a C++ file inside my project but it says : "No source file named pspp.cc" . Any idea about what the problem could be ?
[03:49] <prince_jammys> mutantman: means it was successful
[03:49] <thisdyu> hey guys im a bit confused, i need to use airdriver is used to install the monitor drivers for my wifi card right? will this effect any of my current drivers
[03:49] <lemcott> bazhang, my first hdd is vista, second is ubuntu, and im trying to make it back into vista
[03:49] <mutantman> ok what do i do now?
[03:49] <bazhang> lemcott: do you plan on reinstalling ubuntu?
[03:49] <kindofabuzz> Schmiez: nano your /etc/X11/xorg.conf and look for your vid driver setion, change it to vesa, try that
[03:49] <mutantman> what do i do now?
[03:49] <lemcott> no, i need the space as of now, so i need it to be vista recognized/usable
[03:50] <cabrioleur> lemcott, that's a problem.
[03:50] <lemcott> D:
[03:50] <bazhang> lemcott: sounds like a windows only question then
[03:50] <lemcott> windows doesnt recognize it
[03:50] <mutantman> i might have got an error, nothing happening
[03:50] <Nasra> I like this chat room....you guys are ready to help.....I love it....
[03:50] <cabrioleur> bazhang, don't leave the customer when he is dissatisfied. He might come back whey you're nice.
[03:50] <carlos> hello all, I'm trying to connect on my wireless network, but i'm having this error: Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) : SET failed on device eth0 ; No such device. .....someone know what can i do?
[03:50] <zachwlewis> Is there a way to just uninstall all my graphics drivers and let ubuntu find new ones?
[03:50] <lemcott> i formated it to be fat32 and now i cant even get into windows!
[03:50] <cabrioleur> lemcott, I'll find a solution for you.
[03:50] <bazhang> cabrioleur: read the /topic
[03:51] <prince_jammys> customer?
[03:51] <mutantman> im going to ut
[03:51] <cabrioleur> bazhang, and his problem is how to remove _grub_!!
[03:51] <Flannel> lemcott: If you have no Vista CD to properly add it back, you could try SBM (smart boot manager), or failing that, you just need to keep GRUB around, on a tiny GRUB partition
[03:51] <Nasra> linuxbasics.org
[03:51] <Nasra> is great
[03:51] <mutantman> idk how to goto urban terror...
[03:52] <lemcott> the only reason im on is im using the livecd to boot from, grub wont even let me touch anything
[03:52] <Ziroda1> Hi I am having some issues with VNC, is there anyway for VNC to work with the current X desktop?
[03:52] <mutantman> (the channel)
[03:52] <lemcott> error17
[03:52] <levander> Is there a command to read the IDV3 tag out of an MP3?
[03:52] <cabrioleur> lemcott, the answer step by step is here: http://www.arsgeek.com/?p=3340
[03:52] <mutantman> Can SomeOne Please Tell Me How To run A Dedicated Server On Ubuntu???
[03:52] <mutantman> Can SomeOne Please Tell Me How To run A Dedicated Server On Ubuntu???
[03:53] <bazhang> !repeat | mutantman
[03:53] <ubotu> mutantman: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[03:53] <cabrioleur> mutantman, what's the error now?
[03:53] <yowshi> cabrioleur: pac man? what do you mean by that
[03:53] <kindofabuzz> mutantman: did you even read the link i gave you? tels you everything
[03:53] <mutantman> i never got it to work
[03:53] <Flannel> mutantman: It's on a different server, this may work (depending on your IRC client): /connect irc.enterthegame.com then /join #urbanterror
[03:53] <Mnabi1> hello , i wanna install enlightment on ubuntu , how can i do that >
[03:53] <mutantman> THE LINK DOESNT WORK OK?
[03:53] <Mnabi1> ?
[03:53] <cabrioleur> yowshi, it's an old game. You can find it everywhere in abandonware collections.
[03:53] <CRINGO> nikrud,  forgot i wanted to throw this at you, http://pastebin.com/ddef976d <- look at sdb1, it's been mounting it as disk-2, I manually mounted it to /media/nota
[03:53] <CRINGO> nikrud, did I need to umount it first?
[03:53] <intravenous> hey guys, how do i change servers with xchat?
[03:53] <intravenous> im looking to get onto slashnet
[03:53] <Starnestommy> intravenous: /server new.server
[03:54] <kindofabuzz> mutantman: it does work, http://www.urbanterror.net/urt_manual/server.htm
[03:54] <CRINGO> intravenous, /server server.name.net
[03:54] <CRINGO> oops
[03:54] <intravenous> thanks man
[03:54] <nikrud> CRINGO ues
[03:54] <yowshi> cabrioleur: heh what about starcraft? i would like to run that at decent speeds reliabvly online and without the problems wine has with bnet. an no i am not paying cedega for ripping off wine
[03:54] <CRINGO> nikrud, so you can have a device mounted to multiple places? does that screw anything up?
[03:55] <cabrioleur> yowshi, starcraft (broodwars too) run smoothly with unmodified wine.
[03:55] <mutantman> no ones there...
[03:55] <Estesark> Hi, a question: I have two hard disks, one which is mounted to / and another which is mounted to /home. I get the feeling that, because /home is a directory of /, that my files are being duplicated. I say this because / is very nearly full, even though I don't really have anything in there at all, except for in /home. How do I check that I've mounted everything right and sort it out if it is wrong?
[03:55] <zachwlewis> Okay, I managed to remove a lot of stuff. How do I add back the restricted drivers manager and let it find an appropriate driver for my 8800GT?
[03:55] <mssever> Mnabi1: There's an Enlightenment package in Ubuntu
[03:55] <Nasra> now just installed azureus...how do I use it....what is the procedure?
[03:55] <nikrud> CRINGO it's not common, no. I don't think I've ever seen it myself, except with --bind. I'm not really up on esoteric mount options
[03:55] <carlos> someone know what command do i have to use to connect on the wireless network?
[03:55] <mssever> Mnabi1: If you want a more recent version, Google is your friend
[03:55] <yowshi> cabrioleur: no it doesnt. take a look at the bnet interface. i get windows that dont refrsh properly and stuff
[03:55] <CRINGO> okay nikrud, thanks
[03:56] <andi5> Estesark: check out baobab :-)
[03:56] <zachwlewis> Nasra: Find a torrent file, and have the program open it.
[03:56] <mutantman> still cant get my server to work!!!!
[03:56] <nikrud> CRINGO I'm tired, my attention thingo is not functioning well :)
[03:56] <Estesark> What's that, andi5 ?
[03:56] <yowshi> +in the game itself anf does but outside of a game it doesnt
[03:56] <zachwlewis> Nasra: It will then proceed to connect with other computers and download your files.
[03:56] <CRINGO> heh, np
[03:56] <kindofabuzz> mutantman: learn to google and read the damn link i gave you, it tells you everything about the server
[03:56] <Estesark> Oh, the disk usage analyser... so what am I looking for exactly?
[03:56] <mutantman> IT DOESNT HELP OMG
[03:56] <mssever> Estesark: Typing mount will show you if everything's mounted properly -- also try df
[03:57] <mutantman> THE DOWNLOAD LINKS ARE DEAD
[03:57] <mutantman> IT HELPs 0
[03:57] <mssever> !caps
[03:57] <ubotu> PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[03:57] <kindofabuzz> mutantman: how does it not help? it tells you step by step what to do
[03:57] <zachwlewis> Okay, I managed to remove a lot of stuff. How do I add back the restricted drivers manager and let it find an appropriate driver for my 8800GT?
[03:57] <Nasra> zachlewis: question...where do I put the file to download or where will it go and find it?
[03:57] <zachwlewis> You should be able to use "Open with...".
[03:57] <zachwlewis> Then, choose your program.
[03:57] <zachwlewis> If not, it doesn't matter where you save it.
[03:58] <kindofabuzz> zachwlewis: Envy
[03:58] <andi5> Estesark: your data is not duplicated, that is for sure.. mount will tell you whether you have mounted /home correctly though
[03:58] <zachwlewis> You can either double-click and choose a program, or open it.
[03:58] <zachwlewis> kindofabuzz: Pardon?
[03:58] <bazhang> mutantman you should direct your questions to the person who was helping you
[03:58] <daved> is there a gnome cd/dvd burning program similar in functionality to k3b?
[03:58] <yowshi> cabrioleur: no it doesnt. take a look at the bnet interface. i get windows that dont refrsh properly and stuff. in the game itself it does but outside of a game it doesnt. unless you have a solution
[03:58] <fab4fan> w30:  that worked !
[03:58] <fab4fan> /msg w30 that worked !
[03:58] <lemcott> cabrioleur, thank you thank you thank you!
[03:58] <kindofabuzz> zachwlewis: you asked about video drivers, use Envy, intalls everything for you, ati and nvidia
[03:58] <lemcott> ill be back on after going into windows!
[03:59] <zachwlewis> kindofabuzz: Where do I find that?
[03:59] <cabrioleur> lemcott, you are welcome.
[03:59] <fab4fan> whoa lag
[03:59] <user10> winnie
[03:59] <pike_> !envy
[03:59] <redheat> hi everyone
[03:59] <ubotu> envy is an unsupported tool to install newer versions of binary video drivers than provided by the official repositories. Use at your own risk, and remember that the latest version is not necessarily the "best". See « /msg ubotu binarydriver »
[03:59] <kindofabuzz> just google envy, first link that pops up
[03:59] <bazhang> kindofabuzz: that script is not much liked in these parts
[03:59] <Estesark> andi5: This is what I get from mount: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d9439821
[03:59] <redheat> I need some help around here if possible
[03:59] <kindofabuzz> why not bazhang ?
[03:59] <Estesark> I'm not really sure what I should be looking for
[03:59] <fab4fan> redheat: whats up ?
[03:59] <bazhang> !envy | kindofabuzz zachwlewis
[03:59] <andi5> Estesark: what about df?
[03:59] <ubotu> kindofabuzz zachwlewis: envy is an unsupported tool to install newer versions of binary video drivers than provided by the official repositories. Use at your own risk, and remember that the latest version is not necessarily the "best". See « /msg ubotu binarydriver »
[03:59] <redheat> I'm trying to install ubuntu 7.10 on my machine next to my other operating system..hi fab4fun
[04:00] <kindofabuzz> well yeah, but still, works fine on my end
[04:00] <fab4fan> redheat:  you have an existing OS on the drive ?
[04:00] <Estesark> andi5: df output: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/d2df95039
[04:00] <mssever> Estesark: Well, it shows that / and /home are on two separate drives
[04:00] <redheat> windows xp and windows vista, now as I know, any linux distribution can be installed on any logical partitions..
[04:00] <kindofabuzz> Schmiez: any progress?
[04:00] <redheat> see I was aiming to install two linux systems on the smae harddrive, opensuse 10.3 and ubuntu 7.10
[04:00] <xanderp> Help please!! I just applied some updates, rebooted and now my system boots to a busybox cli!
[04:00] <Estesark> mssever: I really can't believe that I've used 80% of my primary drive though, considering I download everything to /home
[04:01] <redheat> and boot them all using the vista bootloader..
[04:01] <fab4fan> redheat:  true but first thing you want to do is backup any data onto CD or DVD
[04:01] <kindofabuzz> i'm about to go try MEPIS, i'll be back
[04:01] <fab4fan> redheat:  I'm not 100% sure but I think GRUB will overwrite the Vista bootloader
[04:01] <redheat> fab4fan, the whole harddisk has been formatted, and right now all I have on it are two fresh copies of windows vista and windows xp
[04:01] <mssever> Estesark: If you look at the disk usage analyzer (can't remember its name and I'm not on Ubuntu right now), it'll graphically show you what's eating your space
[04:01] <cabrioleur> yowshi, wine did have issues with compiz. Did you try to turn it off?
[04:02] <andi5> Estesark: ouch ... either use baobab or "du -sm /*" to find out a bit more ... 115 GB is quite a lot :)
[04:02] <redheat> this is what I've been working on getting rid off, see there's this awesome program called Easy BCD, which you can get from this URL
[04:02] <fab4fan> redheat: they are fresh copies ? just installed ?
[04:02] <mssever> xanderp: Are you sure it's busybox? or do you just mean CLI?
[04:02] <yowshi> cabrioleur: this was before i installed compiz
[04:02] <sjovan> okay... i just banned my self from my own teamspeak server. how do i unban?
[04:02] <Estesark> mssever: That shows that /etc and /home take up the most space, but in total, everything adds up to about 200 GB, not the 300GB+ that df/mount is showing
[04:02] <xanderp> it says busybox.
[04:02] <redheat> http://neosmart.net/
[04:02] <yowshi> cabrioleur: it aklso had issues with alt+tabbing
[04:03] <redheat> yep fab4fan
[04:03] <mssever> Estesark: Hmm... have you drilled down into /etc to find the trouble?
[04:03] <saminthemiddle> hello
[04:03] <mssever> xanderp: Can you boot normally in recovery mode?
[04:03] <donkey7186> QUESTION. does anyone have trouble getting to the linksys setup website. 192.168.1.1 ?????????
[04:03] <andi5> mssever: fyi, that is baobab :)
[04:03] <Sum1> hello all:)  I have a question
[04:04] <mssever> andi5: thanks
[04:04] <bazhang> donkey7186: that is your router not the website
[04:04] <saminthemiddle> Sum1: me too ;-)
[04:04] <mssever> donkey7186: no
[04:04] <andi5> Estesark: what about /tmp or /var?
[04:04] <donkey7186> i know but how do i get to it cause that is the default and it isnt working
[04:04] <saminthemiddle> donkey7186: are you connecting though it nowL
[04:04] <Estesark> mssever: Wow, no, I hadn't... apparently I've got 106 GB of backups. That must be it.
[04:04] <redheat> now, this is how I partitioned my harddrive, first of all I have a 320 GB harddrive, where I have assigned 100 GB for windows vista, another 100 for windows xp and the rest is left as unallocated space, space I turned the remaining space into an extended partition with multiple logical drives, and I have kept 22 GB for ubuntu along with 22 GB for opensuse and 4 GB for swap
[04:04] <donkey7186> yes im connecting through it
[04:04] <bazhang> donkey7186: what error are you getting
[04:04] <xanderp> mssever: nope.  I hit esc on the grub, turned off spash and quiet, and it shows mounting problems for root.  I'm wondering if my uuid changed?
[04:04] <Sum1> i have a multiboot system, and I want to upgrade to 704, if I do so from the software updates manager, will it mess up my multiboot or my partition?
[04:05] <saminthemiddle> donkey7186, try http;//192.168.1.1
[04:05] <donkey7186> just when i type in 192.168.1.1 it bring up a page cannot be found
[04:05] <xanderp> the prompt says initramfs
[04:05] <cabrioleur> yowshi, I know. I'm sorry I cannot help you. VMWare is my only suggestion, as you might have it for free.
[04:05] <mssever> xanderp: were these just run-of-the-mill updates?
[04:05] <bazhang> donkey7186: this is wired or wirelessly
[04:05] <mssever> donkey7186: can you ping 192.168.1.1?
[04:05] <redheat> now nearing the end of ubuntu's installation, there's that small advanced option which tells you where do you want to install the grub
[04:05] <saminthemiddle> donkey7186, sorry http://192.168.1.1
[04:05] <donkey7186> wireless
[04:05] <donkey7186> how can i try to ping it
[04:05] <xanderp> yup, mysql, mythtv, some libraries, that stuff... I didn't see anything system related...
[04:05] <bazhang> donkey7186: you need an ethernet cable to set it up
[04:05] <Estesark> This is confusing, being helped by two people at once (though I appreciate it). I'm pretty sure it's those backups that are taking up all the space, I must have mucked up my configuration. Anyway, thanks, andi5 and mssever.
[04:05] <redheat> by the way fab4fan, http://neosmart.net/wiki/display/EBCD/Ubuntu this is the wiki to how to install
[04:05] <donkey7186> cause the router is on my main computer which i am in front of
[04:06] <mssever> Estesark: np
[04:06] <redheat> ubuntu and yet let it load from within vista's boot loader
[04:06] <donkey7186> well im trying to set it up on my regular computer
[04:06] <andi5> donkey7186: ping 192.168.1.1 :)
[04:06] <redheat> fab4fan, are you still with me
[04:06] <legend2440> are the pre-released updates in gutsy safe to use or are they beta?
[04:06] <saminthemiddle> donkey7138, from the terminal type ping 192.168.1.1
[04:06] <donkey7186> where do i type that terminal?
[04:06] <fab4fan> redheat: yeah
[04:06] <Sum1> ??
[04:06] <fab4fan> redheat:  I'm not familiar with the Vista bootloader
[04:06] <redheat> no, just look at it..
[04:06] <andi5> is vista a new gnome theme?
[04:06] <donkey7186> 56(84) bytes
[04:07] <julian_> hello
[04:07] <Sum1> ??
[04:07] <redheat> there's nothing to it, since that program called easy bcd will do it for you...
[04:07] <mssever> xanderp: Well, your UUID isn't *supposed* to change... Have you tried recovery mode (If you answered that already, I apologize)
[04:07] <saminthemiddle> Sum1: I'm not sure, but you should always make backups of your data
[04:07] <xanderp> can i take option e to edit grub line, then change the root= to say / instead of UUID=blahblahblah...
[04:07] <andi5> xanderp: what filesystem?
[04:07] <Sum1> back up my  entire win side?
[04:07] <xanderp> mssever: i tried recovery, it barfs too
[04:08] <redheat> so the whole trick is just point your grub to root partition the one that has a mounting point of /
[04:08] <xanderp> andi5: the default ubuntu fs...
[04:08] <mssever> xanderp: you have to specify your partitions grub-style
[04:08] <andi5> xanderp: which is? ... ext3?
[04:08] <redheat> now, it seems that ubuntu doesn't work under a logical drive...
[04:08] <donkey7186> so what should i do now
[04:08] <saminthemiddle> Sum1: why not? But I don't think it will hurt the windows partition
[04:08] <redheat> it need s a primary partition
[04:08] <cabrioleur> Sum1, it should not, and 99.99999% will not make any mess with your windows partition, but again 0.00001%...
[04:08] <xanderp> mssever: I didn't change anything, the defaults that ubuntu put in grub are what i was using.
[04:08] <fab4fan> redheat:  it looks like it should work
[04:08] <mssever> xanderp: Or maybe not...I don't remember
[04:08] <bazhang> donkey7186: to connect to your router you need an ethernet cable to it
[04:09] <Ashfire908> is there a program to convert a video to MPEG4 format? (or something else that a psp supports
[04:09] <brandon> hey everyone, I just installed ubuntu, and now when i start it up, my monitor(not ubuntu) says 'Out of range'so i think there is a problem with the resolution, is there a fix for this?
[04:09] <saminthemiddle> donkey7186: try connecting to the router, it might be broken though to hard-resetting it might help
[04:09] <wenceslao> any ladies in here??
[04:09] <mssever> xanderp: I was saying that in answer to your question about changing the root to /
[04:09] <wenceslao> that what to chat with a newbe to be friend
[04:09] <bazhang> wenceslao: offtopic
[04:09] <redheat> that's what I thought, but it doesn't when I try to install ubuntu in one of the logical partitions I've created, but it works like magic when I put it in a primary partitions
[04:09] <donkey7186> connect to the router how?
[04:09] <cabrioleur> redheat, it will work with lvm's as long as you install it during installation.
[04:09] <andi5> xanderp: /etc/fstab should tell you,... if it is ext3, i could suggest to use labels... set them with 'sudo e2label /dev/sxxn mylabel' and LABEL=mylabel in /etc/fstab
[04:09] <donkey7186> im already wireless
[04:09] <LinuxMercedes> Any idea as to why when I run sudo apt-get upgrade I get the message "E: could not open lock file /var/lib/apt/lists/lock-open (11 resource temporarily unavailable)?
[04:10] <xanderp> andi5: i have to GET to /etc/fstab first... :)
[04:10] <fab4fan> redheat:  since you can have several primary's that should not be a problem
[04:10] <legend2440> LinuxMercedes: make sure Synaptic is closed
[04:10] <saminthemiddle> brandon: I always thought that out of range usually referred to refresh rate, try booting to a command line and editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:10] <pike_> LinuxMercedes: synaptic is open or another apt-get is running
[04:10] <bazhang> donkey7186: to setup your router you iniitially need an ethernet cable to get into the router config
[04:10] <LinuxMercedes> legend2440: it is
[04:10] <Sum1> Ok, so I tried this upgrade from S/M earlier, and I didnt know if this would mess up my partition so I used the force quit app to force quit the upgrade process.  Now my S/M says that there are like 814 updates and when I run it it says that all updates cannot be installed and suggests that I run a distrobution update to get the updates that I can.  I dont know what I have done
[04:10] <mssever> xanderp: Honestly, though, I'd be surprised if your UUID changed. Why do you think it did?
[04:10] <saminthemiddle> donkey7138, I'm sorry, did you say you're wireless?
[04:10] <Ashfire908> LinuxMercedes, apt/aptitude/synaptic/etc is open somewhere
[04:10] <brandon> saminthemiddle: im in the command line right now, how do i edit it via command line?
[04:11] <cabrioleur> Sum1, brake your system :-)
[04:11] <xanderp> I thought i had that problem once before... when I saw that line in grub it reminded me of it.
[04:11] <LinuxMercedes> pike_: I don't think it's open: ps only lists bash and ps
[04:11] <saminthemiddle> brandon, sudo vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:11] <cabrioleur> Sum1, give more output on pastebin..
[04:11] <saminthemiddle> brandon, oh, and you might want to apt-get install vim
[04:11] <donkey7186> bazhang ok on my regular computer which is what i am trying to setup linksys, it is already connected via ethernet cable. how come it doesnt work on that computer when i try to go to http://192.168.1.1
[04:11] <brandon> ok
[04:11] <saminthemiddle> brandon, the default vi is lousy
[04:11] <mssever> xanderp: how far along in the boot process do you get?
[04:11] <legend2440> LinuxMercedes: a reboot might help
[04:11] <Ashfire908> LinuxMercedes, you cannot have more than one apt or package manager running at the same time
[04:11] <LinuxMercedes> legend2440: I'll try that
[04:11] <xanderp> trying recovery mode again to see...
[04:11] <bazhang> donkey7186: and what does the ping return in terminal?
[04:12] <saminthemiddle> brandon, press I to ender edit mode, escape to exit edit mode, and :w to save :q to quit
[04:12] <wenceslao> anyone like to chat with a newbe to be friend and teach about lenux
[04:12] <cabrioleur> donkey7186, did you check if you don't have a mac filtering or other kind of tool?
[04:12] <Ashfire908> LinuxMercedes, "ps" shows nothing usefull
[04:12] <Sum1> Is it updating 610 (my current version) or is it updating me to 704.  Sorry guys kinda new to both IRC and Ubuntu.  What is pastebin?
[04:12] <bazhang> wenceslao: wrong channel for that
[04:12] <donkey7186> 56(84) bytes that is my ping
[04:12] <xanderp> fails when it tries to mount root, but the rest flys by so fast it could have had errors before that
[04:12] <donkey7186> no i didnt. i have windows running the router.
[04:12] <andi5> xanderp: well, append 'init=/bin/bash' to the kernel line and edit /etc/fstab with vi or your favorite command line editor :)
[04:12] <Schmeiz> YAY
[04:12] <cabrioleur> !pastebin
[04:12] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic)
[04:12] <Schmeiz> i got it to work!!!
[04:12] <LinuxMercedes> Ashfire908: shouldnt it if you're only running command line?
[04:13] <palomer> hello
[04:13] <palomer> I'm trying to play songs
[04:13] <Sum1> OIC
[04:13] <Sum1> sorry
[04:13] <saminthemiddle> palomer, hello
[04:13] <palomer> but banshee refuses
[04:13] <Sum1> ill check into that
[04:13] <Ashfire908> LinuxMercedes, ...
[04:13] <Schmeiz> ^-^
[04:13] <mssever> !enter | palomer
[04:13] <ubotu> palomer: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[04:13] <Schmeiz> my ATI card works now
[04:13] <saminthemiddle> Sum1, pastebin is a website where you can paste stuff into
[04:13] <fab4fan> should I be able to see other PCs on my wireless LAN from Ubuntu ?
[04:13] <Ashfire908> LinuxMercedes, "ps" with no options shows only the current process and ones related with the current terminal
[04:13] <xanderp> andi5: will try
[04:14] <fab4fan> if they are running Windows XP
[04:14] <cabrioleur> palomer, did you play any flash animations etc. before using banshee?
[04:14] <moDumass> hey all, how do i fix supre slow intenret through browsers, not slow through other means, atm just slow through browsers
[04:14] <saminthemiddle> fab4fan, I can't
[04:14] <andi5> moDumass: did you configure a proxy?
[04:14] <Sum1> any more suggestions for my problem
[04:14] <Steven1> I think the firefox that is included with the LiveCD should include flashplayer.
[04:14] <cabrioleur> palomer, if yes, or you tried other sources of sound (skype etc.), make sure you have alsa-oss package installed.
[04:14] <brandon> sam: it still is saying out of range, also when I try to install VIM it doesnt work
[04:14] <palomer> so, when I try to run mplayer it gives me: alsa-lib: pcm_hw.c:1242:(snd_pcm_hw_open) open /dev/snd/pcmC0D0p failed: Device or resource busy \n alsa-lib: pcm_dmix.c:864:(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave \n alsa-init: playback open error: Device or resource busy
[04:14] <mssever> moDumass: are you behind a router?
[04:14] <bazhang> moDumass: did you uninstall TOR?
[04:14] <Ashfire908> LinuxMercedes, "ps -C <command>" shows all processes that are the command <command>.
[04:14] <saminthemiddle> brandon, really
[04:14] <moDumass> andi5 no not that i know of, i also unistalled TOR and TOR button
[04:15] <palomer> both banshee and mplayer aren't working
[04:15] <fab4fan> saminthe:  if I go to places-networks I can see my LAN but I can't open it and see the other PCs
[04:15] <moDumass> mssever i am behind a router
[04:15] <cabrioleur> palomer, yup, that's it. "sudo apt-get install alsa-oss"
[04:15] <saminthemiddle> brandon, I'm not sure why apt-get install vim doesn't work
[04:15] <ubuntu> cabrioleur
[04:15] <palomer> I installed alsa-oss
[04:15] <palomer> still nothing
[04:16] <andi5> moDumass: what about w3m or lynx from the command line?  are they slow as well?  what does echo $http_proxy or echo $HTTP_PROXY show you?
[04:16] <mssever> moDumass: some routers have trouble with ipv6; but since you've apparently been messing with tor, I'm guessing my idea isn't your problem
[04:16] <palomer> I had sound 2 minutes ago!
[04:16] <cabrioleur> palomer, restart your alsa server or restart your computer. Your problems should go away.
[04:16] <brandon> sam, when it says continue, i say 'Y', then for install packages without verificaton i say y, then it says... E: Unable to fetch some archives,...
[04:16] <lemcott> was I supposed to direct that at the windows HDD or the one I'm trying to get linux off of?
[04:16] <tarelerulz> is there any program for made dvds with you own menus ?
[04:16] <palomer> okay
[04:16] <moDumass> echo $http proxy shows nothing
[04:16] <bazhang> devede tarelerulz
[04:17] <mssever> tarelerulz: Tovid can do it
 echo $HTTP_PROXY / proxy shows nothing, no return
[04:17] <saminthemiddle> brandon, first thing, it's saminthemiddle or it won't highlight :-/ and second, why is it asking to install w/o verification?
[04:17] <saminthemiddle> brandon, have you been messing with your repos?
[04:17] <Schmeiz> uh weird
 <andi5> i have turned off ipv6 too
[04:17] <Schmeiz> before i could use my scroll wheel on the desktop to move to the other workspace
[04:17] <Schmeiz> now i cant do that
[04:17] <Estesark> Alright, I have another question now. Having deleted those huge backup files, baobab shows that my total usage is 292.5GB, yet adding up all the folders only shows 43GB. In order to delete the backup files, I had to do it as root - but they didn't go to the recycle bin. df is showing the same figures as before. I'm not convinced those files really deleted, is there a way to check?
[04:18] <mssever> moDumass: are all browsers slow, or just some?
[04:18] <palomer> how do I restart OSS?
[04:18] <brandon> saminthemiddle: no, it looks to me like it cannot connect to the internet, so theres probably a problem with my network card.
[04:18] <Ashfire908> LinuxMercedes, a nice(/nicer) interface to processes is gnome-system-monitor, which you can run from System -> Administration -> System Monitor
[04:18] <andi5> Estesark: how did you delete those files then?
 im just checkin opera, but its slow in all others
[04:18] <Ashfire908> is there a program to convert a video to MPEG4 format? (or something else that a psp supports)
[04:18] <saminthemiddle> brandon, but you're talking to me!
 firefox and konqueror are slow, im jsut checkin opera i think it stayed fast for some reason
[04:19] <Estesark> andi5: sudo nautilus, and then selected the folders and pressed delete
[04:19] <LinuxMercedes> Ashfire908: that'd be great, but I'm running Ubuntu server via ssh, so gui is out of the question
[04:19] <brandon> saminthemiddle: im on my laptop, right next to my desktop, for some reason Ubuntu is working fine on here
[04:19] <prince_jammys> Estesark: see if they are in /root/.Trash
[04:19] <cabrioleur> Estesark, "sudo rm -Rfv /root/.Trash"
[04:19] <lemcott> ashfire908, search for MC media converter SA edition
[04:19] <lemcott> that works best
[04:19] <saminthemiddle> brandon, okay so can you ping google?
[04:19] <andi5> Estesark: but very! cautious when running rm with -f as root, please
[04:19] <mssever> moDumass: Hmmm, dunno what's up
[04:19] <prince_jammys> -f is not necessary
[04:19] <brandon> saminthemiddle: no i cannot.
[04:20] <LinuxMercedes> Ashfire908: but restarting works =]
[04:20] <Sum1> ??
[04:20] <LinuxMercedes> thanks!
[04:20] <saminthemiddle> brandon, then your network is borked
[04:20] <donkey7186> no i didnt. i have windows running the router.
[04:20] <andi5> Estesark: you could replease -f by -i even :)
[04:20] <saminthemiddle> brandon, is this a fresh install? and if it is, did the live CD work?
[04:20] <andi5> replace, even
[04:20] <xanderp> i should have known better than to apply damn updates.  they alway bork up my machines
[04:20] <inminic> hey. is it possible to find a .deb file for Opera 8.54?
[04:20] <Schmeiz> can anyone tell me why the scroll wheel on my mouse wont change between workstations anymore?
[04:20] <cabrioleur> inminic, it's on the opera website.
[04:20] <Estesark> andi5 (and others), thanks. It seems to be deleting properly now. Why did those not show up in the Deleted Items folder when I was running nautilus as root?
[04:20] <mssever> moDumass: have you rebooted? (I don't know that that will work, but I don't have any better ideas)
[04:20] <Ashfire908> lemcott, look in the repos or the internet
[04:21] <inminic> cabrioleur, nope, they don't go lower than 9.10
[04:21]  * xanderp booting livecd to see what my fstab looks like
 <andi5> i have rebooted
[04:21] <moDumass> and its fast in opera
[04:21] <user8> endra_d'backbone
[04:21] <andi5> Estesark: also, please use gksudo when running graphical applications as root
 <andi5> i have rebooted, internet still fast in opera, but slow in ff and konqueror
[04:21] <brandon> saminthemiddle: i used the text install, just because i like that for preference, yes, it is a fresh install, and I will try the live cd right now...
[04:21] <Sum1> should I just go ahead and use the distrobution update and take the 814 updates?
[04:21] <Estesark> andi5: I hadn't heard of that, but I'll research it now.
[04:21] <cabrioleur> inminic, http://www.opera.com/download/index.dml?opsys=Linux%20Sparc&lng=en&ver=8.54&platform=Linux%20Sparc&local=y
[04:21] <saminthemiddle> brandon, okay
[04:22] <Ashfire908> lemcott, i'm looking for a ubuntu program.
[04:22] <prince_jammys> Estesark: because you were looking at the Trash in YOUR desktop, not root's
[04:22] <lemcott> oh right
[04:22] <lemcott> vlc
[04:22] <inminic> cabrioleur, i tried it. gives 404 error
[04:22] <mssever> moDumass: well, I'm officially stumped
[04:22] <lemcott> vlc can convert most files
[04:22] <lemcott> but it does it x1 speed
[04:22] <lemcott> meaning if you have a 2 hour and 45 minute movie
[04:22] <Estesark> So even after sudo nautilus, the "Deleted Items" shortcut goes to user ollie's deleted items folder?
[04:23] <lemcott> its gonna take exactly that long
[04:23] <mssever> Estesark: no, to root's trash
[04:23] <mssever> Estesark: Scratch that
[04:23] <mssever> Estesark: I misunderstood you
[04:24] <prince_jammys> Estesark: i don't know :) i don't use nautilus. maybe using sudo vs gksudo has that effect
[04:24] <cabrioleur> inminic, http://ftp.debian-unofficial.org/debian/pool/non-free/o/opera8-binary-i386/
[04:24] <Estesark> prince_jammys: I'm not sure. Anyway, thanks. Also to mssever and others.
[04:24] <prince_jammys> Estesark: that may have been why.
[04:24] <MinusSeven> I don't know if there's a way to do it, but in the panels, is there a way to turn off the tooltips?
[04:24] <xanderp> ok, i'm in on a livecd boot, and looking at my fstab.  my root partition is on /dev/hdc1.  can i just hard code out all that uuid crap and point it to /dev/hdc1?
[04:24] <mssever> Estesark: using nautilus as root puts stuff in root's trash, but the trash button on the panel only points to your user's trash
[04:24] <MinusSeven> I tried using gconf-editor and going into apps/panel/global
[04:24] <MinusSeven> but it didn't seem to turn it off
[04:24] <xanderp> (oh, and it's ext3)
[04:25] <Syko> so what do y'all think of 8.04 beta?
[04:25] <mssever> xanderp: yes
[04:25] <xanderp> do i do that in /etc/grub/grub.conf or something?
[04:25] <mssever> xanderp: unless you decide to phically change how your drives are connected, you'll be fint
[04:25] <andi5> Estesark, prince_jammys: maybe gksudo -l is needed to point to root's trash?  i think that will change $HOME, but i am not sure
[04:25] <dabbill> I just put a 8800GT in my computer. Downloaded and installed latest drivers from nVidia, but i am still getting like hte same video performance when i had the 6600GT in .
[04:25] <mssever> mssever: no, in fstab
[04:25] <mssever> xanderp: no, in fstab
[04:26] <inminic> cabrioleur, thank you
[04:26] <xanderp> mssever: hehe... talking to your self is the first sign of impending mental collapse!!

[04:26] <legend2440> Ashfire908:  for avi to mpeg4 i use devede
[04:26] <mssever> xanderp: :)
[04:26] <andi5> xanderp: i guess he needed confirmation first :)
[04:26] <michael__> Could someone help me out - my Ubuntu laptop has been running way too hot and I was wondering if there was anything I could do to cool it down
[04:27] <andi5> turn it off? ... are lm_sensors and sensors-applet installed?
[04:27] <mssever> michael__: pack it in ice :)
[04:27] <michael__> mssever:  lol
[04:28] <xanderp> make like it's your birthday?
[04:28] <Syko>  /sigh, mssever, ubotu, I wanted to hear it from users mouths =/
[04:28] <xanderp> (blow on it?)
[04:28] <cabrioleur> michael__, can you monitor your proc usage and fan?
[04:28] <Ashfire908> legend2440, it outputs to a mp4 file right
[04:28] <mssever> Syko: #ubunti+1 is the place to discuss hardy, not here
[04:28] <mssever> Syko: #ubunto+1 is the place to discuss hardy, not here
[04:29] <xanderp> what's the key to kill the splash screen?
[04:29] <xanderp> esc?
[04:29] <bazhang> Syko: wrong channel
[04:29] <andi5> Syko: i think that it will come out in about a month, but you have been redirected already :)
[04:29] <Dr_willis> heh heh - try again ..
[04:29] <Dr_willis> #ubutu+1
[04:29] <Dr_willis> or not.. :)
[04:29] <andi5> mssever: are you an earthworm split in the middle?
[04:29] <mssever> Dr_willis: Oh, thanks... I can't spell tonight :)
[04:29] <legend2440> Ashfire908:  there is a selection to convert to Divx/MPEG4
[04:30] <Dr_willis> I can teither
[04:30] <xanderp> bastards... i had those entries in the fstab hard coded before... the updates must have replaced my fstab entries with UUID's!!!  (they were still there, but commented out!)
[04:30] <mssever> I never realized ubuntu was so hard to spell :)
[04:30] <nikrud> sounds like another silly sunday
[04:30] <Ashfire908> legend2440, ok.
[04:30] <mssever> xanderp: which version of Ubuntu are you running?
[04:30] <michael__> cabrioleur:  My processor isn't running all that hot, and I don't have any way to monitor my fan
[04:30] <user10> hju
[04:30] <mssever> xanderp: I had that kind of trouble between dapper and edgy
[04:30] <xanderp> I'm booted back up again.. everything is working.  it's mythbuntu on 7.10
[04:30] <andi5> o man, i read "my professor isn't all that hot..."
[04:30] <xanderp> (64 bit)
[04:31] <xanderp> oh well, at least i'm back up again.
[04:32] <mssever> xanderp: now you know to watch fstab closely, lest updates conspire against you
[04:32] <mssever> :)
[04:32] <xanderp> I knew it was familiar for some reason... and that UUID stuck out in my mind.  I wonder why it wrongly detects my uuids...
[04:32] <michael__> cabrioleur:  Disregard that - it keeps spiking up to 100% usage on the system monitor, but I'm not running anything too resource-intensive...
[04:32] <ggg> winie
[04:32] <andi5> mssever: i would say, make /etc read-only completely :)
[04:33] <cabrioleur> michael__, use "top" command to catch the bugger.
[04:33] <andi5> mssever: but otoh, those changes slip in with updates, and you need write access then...
[04:33] <mssever> andi5: xanderp: maybe chattr -i
[04:33] <xanderp> this is the same machine that keeps great time with hwclock, but the rtc is fubar.  (drifts by like 30 minutes/day)
[04:33] <andi5> righto
[04:33] <mssever> andi5: xanderp: on fstab alone
[04:33] <dabbill> I just put a 8800GT in my computer. Downloaded and installed latest drivers from nVidia, but i am still getting like hte same video performance when i had the 6600GT in. Any one know what i can try to get better performace on games in wine?
[04:34] <pike_> dabbill: sure the processor or ram wasnt the bottleneck and not the vid card?
[04:34] <xanderp> don't know about chattr -i
[04:34] <dabbill> pike_, 4200+ dual core, and 2gig ram.
[04:34] <keoni> what would cause my 2nd core not being seen?
[04:34] <andi5> mssever: on the third hand, this will not work on xfs... but maybe there is another command for that
[04:34] <mssever> xanderp: it marks a file as immutable. read the chattr man page
[04:34] <keoni> all of a sudden that is
[04:34] <cabrioleur> keoni, not seen where?
[04:34] <bazhang> keoni: what kernel do you use?
[04:35] <mssever> andi5: Oh, xfs?
[04:35] <xanderp> mssever: already there
[04:35] <keoni> i think i recently upgraded or something
[04:35] <andi5> mssever: or rather everything except ext[23]
[04:35] <keoni> i noticed my distributed.net stats dropped tremendously about a week ago
[04:35] <mssever> andi5: I guess I tend to assume ext3
[04:36] <keoni> and i just checked all my boxes and i just noticed that top is showing dnetc only running on one core
[04:36] <pike_> dabbill: the 8800's have been problematic for some people because of how new they were.. you might grab the latest nvidia drivers see if they make a diff
[04:36] <xanderp> chattr looks like just the thing.. i can't think of any reason to have updates screw with fstab... can anyone here?
[04:36] <cabrioleur> keoni, top is made for 1 core. user htop if you want to see more.
[04:36] <michael__> cabrioleur:  It looks like "trackerd" is the culprit - how can I disable it?
[04:36] <dabbill> pike_, i have the latest nvidia drivers. 169.12 installed
[04:36] <andi5> mssever: i have switched quite a while ago, but i have no reason to regret that
[04:36] <mssever> michael__: killall trackerd
[04:37] <cabrioleur> michael__, "killall trackerd"
[04:37] <mssever> andi5: switched to what?
[04:37] <andi5> mssever: xfs... well, just ignore me
[04:37] <cabrioleur> michael__, and disable it in "sessions" wizard.
[04:37] <mssever> andi5: sorry, I got dropped from the channel momentarily
[04:37] <keoni> uname says  2.6.22-14-386, htop is saying the same thing
[04:38] <anlek> Hello everyone
[04:38] <keoni> thats is running on one core
[04:38] <mssever> andi5: how is xfs different from ext3
[04:38] <Christoz> I have a question
[04:38] <bazhang> keoni: need the generic
[04:38] <cabrioleur> keoni, check you logs, and check your bios setup.
[04:38] <andi5> mssever: i think we are quite off-topic already =)
[04:38] <mssever> !ask | Christoz
[04:38] <Karsyth> ive just installed a teamspeak server on linux and ive got it running properly. only problem is i cannot configure it because i dont know the IP or the Port of my server. anyone that knows how to find it?
[04:38] <ubotu> Christoz: 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. :-)
[04:38] <michael__> cabrioleur:  thanks :)
[04:38] <cabrioleur> keoni, "cat /proc/cpuinfo"
[04:38] <tmh__> am I the only one who lost sound capabilities in hardy a few days a go?
[04:38] <anlek> can someone help me setup a static IP in Ubuntu 7.10 (Server) but it's running in VMWare Server. I'm not sure how to send it an external static IP.
[04:39] <f0rmat> hello i was just wondering whether there was an app in ubuntu that can show all the connections my computer is having and show countrys of origin and other stats like that i had a program like that whilst i used windows it was a constant monitor and all you do is click a tray icon to bring up the window...
[04:39] <bazhang> tmh__: #ubuntu+1 please
[04:39] <andi5> tmh__: please ask in #ubuntu+1
[04:39] <xanderp> thanks for the help all... off to bed...
[04:39] <Christoz> bazhang hello ,is there any possibility,for my filesystem to be damaged
[04:39] <Slaj_R> j #xenu
[04:39] <mssever> f0rmat: etherape?
[04:39] <tbwnoob> mt xserver goes down and says something about internet protocall and bus connection
[04:39] <cabrioleur> f0rmat, wireshark :-) ha ha!!
[04:39] <f0rmat> :)
 <andi5> would it have something to do with the gheco gekko the mozilla engine?
[04:39] <f0rmat> thankyou
[04:39] <bazhang> Christoz: please specify; what is the issue you are having
[04:40] <andi5> moDumass: gecko, you mean... well, does not konqueror come with khtml as well?
[04:40] <Christoz> bazhang for example when i'm trying to ./configure wormux it cannot find the a sdl lib
 <andi5> khtml?
[04:40] <andi5> bazhang: to compile stuff you need developer packages, those ending on -dev
[04:40] <cabrioleur> Christoz, no
[04:40] <mssever> moDumass: Konqueror doesn't use Geckol; it uses KHTML
[04:40] <Karsyth> (12:38:35 AM) Karsyth: ive just installed a teamspeak server on linux and ive got it running properly. only problem is i cannot configure it because i dont know the IP or the Port of my server. anyone that knows how to find it?
[04:40] <Christoz> bazhang which is weird cause i can see it with my own eyes but system cannot
[04:40] <bazhang> Christoz: what is wormux and where did you install it from (random website, repos etc)
[04:41] <keoni> says model name      : AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 6000+
[04:41] <mssever> Karsyth: Try ifconfig
[04:41] <Christoz> bazhang at first from repos (debian package) but didn't work
[04:41] <mssever> Karsyth: and look in the config or docs for the port
[04:41] <cabrioleur> keoni, it should say a line like this" <keoni> i think i recently upgraded or something"
[04:41] <keoni> lol
[04:42] <TCMC2010> people, I see new ubuntu 8.04 has a 2.6.24 kernel, Will be possible to boot the iso inside a paravirtualized domU virtual machine to install ubuntu ?! where is the .config file for de kernel on boot CD ?
 <andi5> ok, hmm, what does opera use that these other 2 dont?
[04:42] <cabrioleur> keoni, sorry, cpu cores       : 2
[04:42] <andi5> Christoz: to compile stuff you need developer packages, those ending on -dev ... sorry bazhang
[04:42] <Christoz> bazhang then 've downloades it as a tar soucre ball from the official website
[04:42] <bazhang> Christoz: what is the precise error you are getting? are you compiling this from source and have you compiled from before?
[04:42] <moDumass> or what would stop internet from blazing with the other two and not with opera
[04:42] <f0rmat> mssever & cabrioleur, Thankyou for your help :)
[04:42] <andi5> moDumass: please try out w3m or lynx, or remove me from your irc message recipient list :)
[04:42] <keoni> i think i did about a week ago but im trying to get some suggestions as what to look at to find the culprit
[04:42] <mssever> moDumass: its own renderer... Hard do say for sure since it's proprietary
[04:42] <cabrioleur> f0rmat, no problemo amigo.
[04:42] <f0rmat> :0
 sorry man, you were jsut one of the 2 people who seemed to know what was going on
[04:43] <dabbill> pike_, know of any thing else that i might be able to try?
[04:43] <Christoz> bazhang you can see various info @
[04:43] <Christoz> http://pastebin.ca/search.php?q=Christosz  and @ http://pastebin.ca/search.php?q=Christoz
[04:43] <mssever> TCMC2010: Hardy questions belong in #ubuntu+1
[04:43] <bazhang> keoni: the generic kernel supports smp
[04:43] <TCMC2010> thanks!
[04:44] <andi5> TCMC2010: normally .configs are at /boot/config-*... i am not sure about the live cds though
[04:44] <TCMC2010> yeah, that's I know! :-)
[04:44] <Christoz> bazhang if you look at the config.log you can see that "rotozoom" is missing but i can tell you its in front of my own eyes
[04:44] <bazhang> Christoz: is this your first time compiling?
[04:44] <anlek> I'm trying to setup a Linux server running in VMWare Server. And I want that linux server to have an external IP, (host machine is windows 2003 Server). Can anyone point me to where I can learn how to do this?
[04:44] <TCMC2010> but the server install isn't live!
[04:45] <Christoz> bazhang nope
[04:45] <TCMC2010> maybe isolinux under .iso ?!
[04:45] <andi5> Christoz: you may also look at config.log and check out what went wrong exactly (even more precisely is to look at configure as well)
[04:45] <koko775> i just installed a fresh hardy beta amd64 from alternative, and metacity won't stop crashing
[04:45] <koko775> has anyone else had a similar problem?
[04:45] <mssever> anlek: it's in /etc/network/interfaces
[04:45] <koko775> looking at launchpad, i see there are lots of metacity crashes
[04:45] <bazhang> koko775: #ubuntu+1 please
[04:45] <koko775> ah
[04:45] <koko775> thanks
[04:45] <jedi-alex> i just installed successfully ubuntu 7.10 (stable) using alternative install version, but my computer only boots in xp!
[04:45] <Christoz> andi5 obviously i've looked
[04:45] <mssever> anlek: I believe that man interfaces will give you docs
[04:45] <anlek> mssever, thanks I'll give that a try
[04:46] <jedi-alex> do you know how to boot in ubuntu?
[04:46] <andi5> Christoz: oh, i did not see the config.log, i am sorry
[04:46] <Christoz> andi5 it's ok
[04:46] <Nutzebahn> Hi.
[04:47] <bazhang> Christoz: there is usually a readme file with those that tells you how to compile it; never seen wormux (no idea what it is), but that might be a good place to look--why not just install from repos if it is there
[04:47] <Nutzebahn> Could someone show me how to install a GDM theme?
[04:47] <andi5> Christoz: configure:9663: result: ERROR: SDL_gfx library version >= 2.0.13 required
[04:47] <saminthemiddle> I have a question: how do  tell ACPI to kill ipw3945d and restart it given that ipw3945d isn't in /etc/init.d/
[04:47] <mssever> Nutzebahn: drag it onto the GDM config window
[04:47] <Christoz> andi5 this lib is already installed
[04:47] <Nutzebahn> I don't know where to find the GDM config window, how?
[04:48] <onemike9886> hey everyone i am tryin to tunnel my smb shares over ssh so i can access my music n movies on my laptop while im at a friends i have ubuntu 7.10 gutsy on both my laptop and my desktop and i can connect via ssh but if i go into network my samba shares dont show up how do i tunnel them through ssh?
[04:48] <Christoz> andi5 i'm not "crazy" i'm telling you the truth
[04:48] <mssever> Nutzebahn: I think it's gdmsetup; I'm not on Ubuntu ATM
[04:49] <Christoz> bazhang it;s not only wormux it;s openarena too and whatever game need the SDL lib
[04:49] <TCMC2010> thanks!
[04:49] <andi5> Christoz: i do not know the configure script... if you want to you could paste that as well :-)
[04:49] <mackid> onemike9886: i don't know how to do it with SMB, only AFP, but for afp i do something like this: ssh -L54854:127.0.0.1:548 -C user@afpserver.com
[04:49] <andi5> Christoz: i would ask other stupid questions then :)
[04:50] <Christoz> bazhang oh no hard feelings man i didn't want to insult you if i did sorry
[04:50] <Christoz> that was fro andi5 sorry
[04:50] <bazhang> heh
[04:51] <Christoz> andi5 ok
[04:51] <mackid> onemike9886: then i login with afp to localhost:54854 i think
[04:51] <andi5> Christoz: i always have difficulties guessing the level of knowledge people have here... sometimes they did not try the most obvious things :)
[04:51] <Angela_Smith> hi, anyone know if the 64bit 8.04 has the wubi installer? TIA :D
[04:51] <mackid> onemike9886: so it's just a matter of changing port numbers in that command
[04:51] <onemike9886> mackid: im only slightly familiar with networking so is 127.0.0.1:548 the local ip for the desktop and the port for afp?
[04:51] <mackid> onemike9886: 548 is afp
[04:52] <bazhang> Angela_Smith: #ubuntu+1 please
[04:52] <mackid> onemike9886: 54854 is arbitrary i think
[04:52] <mackid> onemike9886: yes, that's right, i just looked it up
[04:53] <Jeffmeister> howdy fellow ubuntu users!
[04:53] <Jeffmeister> Im a noobie and need some help anyone wanna try to join the hell im in trying to install ubuntu right now =P
[04:53] <HardyOne> evening Jeffmeister
[04:53] <onemike9886> mackid: ok i'll give it a try now do i put that first big command into the terminal on my desktop or my laptop?
[04:54] <andi5> HardyOne: #ubuntu+1 ;-)
[04:54] <bazhang> Jeffmeister: what is your specific issue?
[04:54] <legend2440> Angela_Smith: http://wubi-installer.org/faq.php#804
[04:54] <HardyOne> andi5, thank you I am already there :P
[04:54] <mackid> onemike9886: smb is 445 i believe, so maybe ssh -L54854:127.0.0.1:445 -C user@smbserver.com, then login to smb://127.0.0.1:54854
[04:54] <Angela_Smith> thanks legend2440
[04:54] <Rufus53__> wow, theres' a few people here
[04:54] <legend2440> Angela_Smith: yw
[04:54] <mackid> onemike9886: you don't do anything on the actual smb server
[04:54] <moDumass> !www
[04:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about www - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[04:54] <mackid> onemike9886: only on the client
[04:55] <Jeffmeister> to make a long story short, I have an x86 system, Q6600, 8800GT. I made partition in vista, I booted off ubuntu 7.10 live cd.
[04:55] <Rufus53__> can anyone help me with getting mysql to work with php?
[04:55] <LainIwakura> After running 'application filename', am I no longer able to type in the terminal (which I typed the command in) until the application is closed?
[04:55] <fr500> hello
[04:55] <fr500> can anyone helo me to enable file transfers on xhat-gnome
[04:55] <Christoz> andi5 look at http://pastebin.ca/954892 and at http://img148.imageshack.us/my.php?image=sdlgfxnq0.png  this is so weird
[04:55] <Rufus53__> has nvidia fixed the drivers for the 8800gt in linux yet?
[04:55] <r00723r0> Anyone know of any good open-source CASs?
[04:55] <Jeffmeister> chose regular install. started getting loading screen loaded up, then got beeps and black screen
[04:55] <nikrud> LainIwakura try   appname & , the & will put it in the background and release the commandline
[04:55] <fr500> there was some / command you have to run
[04:56] <jedi-alex> i cant boot i just installed ubuntu and it only boots into windows xp... i find out in google that i have to add a line for C:\ubuntu.bin but this files doesn't exist
[04:56] <andi5> LainIwakura: press Control+Z to suspend and afterwards bg to run in the background... or rather start with "application params &" in the beginning
[04:56] <mackid> onemike9886: i have to leave, but if 445 doesn't work, try 139. good luck
[04:56] <onemike9886> mackid: ok and the user@smbserver.com would be user@myroutersipaddress right
[04:56] <andi5> Christoz: looking
[04:56] <HardyOne> Jeffmeister, try installing from the Alternate CD
[04:56] <Rufus53__> please message me if you know about php and mysql!
[04:56] <mackid> onemike9886: the router that the server is behind, yeah, but you'll need to forward port 445 on the router to the PC that is the server if you are using NAT
[04:57] <Flannel> !anyone | Rufus53__
[04:57] <ubotu> Rufus53__: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[04:57] <r00723r0> Anyone know of any good open-source CASs?
[04:57] <onemike9886> mackid: ok i'll see what i can do thanks alot
[04:57] <mackid> lol ubotu, someone did it right after you said that...
[04:57] <Rufus53__> okay, I get this when trying to get a database working http://123.243.205.213/mysqlup.php
[04:57] <mackid> oh, that's a bot, i understand
[04:57] <r00723r0> mackid, ubotu is a bot.
[04:57] <keoni> thank you whoever recommened i check the kernel, no idea why it whoulda got switched from generic to 386
[04:57] <mackid> yeah, i see.
[04:57] <Rufus53__> i found that my phpinfo() is not working with php http://123.243.205.213/index.php
[04:57] <astro76> r00723r0: Maxima
[04:57] <jedi-alex> guys please help im trying for over 8 hours to install ubuntu and now i cant boot
[04:58] <Jeffmeister> HardyOne: so.... I tried the alternate cd. as soon as it booted first error was ( PCI: Unable to allocate memory ...) then it started and it went thru the text install process. It started installign and i finally thought I was going to make it. At Software and Installing I got to xsorb something and then please wait at 6% and then got error. since im a noob to linux all together i finished the installation
[04:58] <r00723r0> mackid, also, my question is my only question.
[04:58] <koko775> how do i get xfwm4 to start by default, instead of metacity?
[04:58] <r00723r0> astro76, do you know how this compares to SAGE or Axiom?
[04:58] <mackid> r00723r0: yeah i realize that, i'm sorry, i'm a little tired
[04:58] <fr500> how to save that xchat option /set dcc_auto_send 1?
[04:58] <r00723r0> mackid, don't be sorry :)
[04:58] <astro76> r00723r0: I do not
[04:58] <Christoz> andi5 i've looked also at this page http://www.wormux.org/wiki/howto/en/...ource_code.php and no progress has been making
[04:58] <r00723r0> astro76, have you tried any other CASs?
[04:58] <Flannel> Rufus53__: Do you have php5-mysql installed?
[04:58] <mackid> alright, i'm out
[04:59] <andi5> Christoz: hm... i meant the configure script, not its output :)
[04:59] <Jeffmeister> hardyone: Then I I tried booting into ubuntu and i got a command line with and it stopped at my ISP mask and asked me to input something and then got password which I don't need since its DHCP. so im preety sure it didnt install any thing.
[04:59] <Jeffmeister> so im back to square one
[04:59] <Rufus53__> Flannel: not sure, it's the default ubuntu install on myserver
[04:59] <ExoticDancer23>  I try ./configure for the musictracker-0.4.1 is not working for me error : C compiler ? any ideas?
[04:59] <Jeffmeister> the cd was checked for integrity the alternate, with no problem
[04:59] <Rufus53__> i've tried editing the php.ini and such
[04:59] <ExoticDancer23> Pidgin  I try ./configure for the musictracker-0.4.1 is not working for me error : C compiler ? any ideas?
[04:59] <andi5> ExoticDancer23: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[05:00] <saminthemiddle> has anyone else had the problem/knows how to fix the problem of iwl3945 not being able to connect after resume from sleep?
[05:00] <Flannel> Rufus53__: You don't need to edit php.ini.  Follow these instructions: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[05:00] <Christoz> andi5 oops now i'm feeling stupid ...what do yo  mean exactly
[05:00] <Jeffmeister> Has anyone with a Q6600, 8800GT have had problems installing Ubuntu with beeps/blackscreen?? If so your help would be greatly appreciated
[05:00] <andi5> Christoz: there should be a file named "configure" :-D
[05:00] <HardyOne> Jeffmeister, you can try the server install cd and when done you sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop to get the GUI. more then that I have no idea
[05:01] <Jeffmeister> i dont think that will work
[05:01] <Jeffmeister> there has to be soemthing else
[05:01] <HardyOne> ExoticDancer23, install build-essential from Synaptic
[05:01] <sjovan> Jeffmeister: have you tryed the alternate cd?
[05:01] <Flannel> Jeffmeister, HardyOne, better to just use the alternate CD.  Jeffmeister, does ctrl-alt-f1 get you to a termina?
[05:01] <Jeffmeister> yes
[05:01] <Jeffmeister> havnt tried that flannel
[05:01] <Jeffmeister> noob to linux
[05:01] <Rufus53__> Jeffmeister: I have 2 8800gt's in SLI and i breifly got them working after the nvidia driver installed, but when you restart it goes to a black screen
[05:02] <Jeffmeister> and my laptop broke so I can't be on here and working ony desktop
[05:02] <jedi-alex> sjovan i just installed ubuntu and i cant multi boot... how can i fix it?
[05:02] <Jeffmeister> im waiting for it to get back from service
[05:02] <jedi-alex> it only boots into windowsxp
[05:02] <ExoticDancer23> HardyOne is there a command to do synptic install like sudo install build?
[05:02] <Flannel> Jeffmeister: Some graphics cards don't like the LiveCD, but work perfectly fine once installed.  You'd get a black screen for the GUI, but the text stuff would work fine (as should the alternate CD)
[05:02] <Jeffmeister> jedi did you install grub?
[05:02] <HardyOne> ExoticDancer23, sudo apt-get install build-essential
[05:02] <jedi-alex> i dont know
[05:02] <Christoz> andi5 i can't paste it on pastebin...why?
[05:02] <sjovan> jedi-alex: sorry, i don't know anything about multi booting
[05:02] <jedi-alex> i just wanna boot into ubuntu
[05:02] <jedi-alex> and i cant
[05:03] <andi5> Christoz: maybe it is too big :)
[05:03] <Jeffmeister> flannel the problem is that my install got stuck at 6% with the alternate cd and I wasn't able to install it
[05:03] <jedi-alex> is there something i can do from windows?
[05:03] <Flannel> Jeffmeister: That sounds like a bad burn, did the disc pass the CD check?
[05:03] <Christoz> andi5 yes this is correct
[05:03] <ahyuwhiye> is ubuntu using partman like debian during the installation?
[05:03] <Jeffmeister> flannel it did
[05:03] <andi5> Christoz: maybe you see something in it by yourself... just start with searching for "required ..."
[05:03] <ExoticDancer23> HardyOne it say insert the disc 7.10
[05:03] <Christoz> andi5 ok hold on please
[05:03] <captaingeek> anyone know how to make an account purge itself on logout?
[05:04] <HardyOne> ExoticDancer23, you can insert the disc but you will want to check !repos
[05:04] <Jeffmeister> jedi get partition magic for xp, make a partition and install it on that
[05:04] <Jeffmeister> all you need is like 20gb
[05:04] <Flannel> Jeffmeister: Still sounds like a bad burn, uh, you can try the minimal CD, which will download the packages form the internet (and as such, they can't cause problems with data during the install)
[05:04] <Flannel> !minimal | Jeffmeister
[05:04] <ubotu> Jeffmeister: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[05:04] <HardyOne> !repos | ExoticDancer23 follow this link and enable universe and multiverse
[05:04] <ubotu> ExoticDancer23 follow this link and enable universe and multiverse: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories
[05:04] <Jeffmeister> bad burn even though it passed the test?
[05:04] <Jeffmeister> the ubuntu test
[05:05] <captaingeek> anyone know how to make an account purge itself on logout?
[05:05] <Flannel> Jeffmeister: well, freezing during package reading just screams bad burn, even though the disk check says otherwise.  Other than bad data, there's no real reason for it to stop consistantly at one package.
[05:05] <Jeffmeister> it was after teh os install
[05:05] <andi5> captaingeek: i have no clue, does sabayon offer such a feature?
[05:05] <Jeffmeister> im assuming it was isntalling gui
[05:05] <Jeffmeister> crap like that
[05:05] <donkey7186> hello
[05:06] <Flannel> Jeffmeister: No, the install itself installs the GUI and such.  What happened exactly?
[05:06] <jedi-alex> Jeffmeister it took me about 9 to install it successfuly, and at the last part i show that i was installing a dual booting feature but after reboot it only boots into windowsxp
[05:06] <Christoz> andi5 did you notice about the"rotozoom" in the config.log
[05:06] <dabbill> Any one useing an 8800 video card? if so what drivers are you useing? I cant seem to get any type of performace out of my 8800GT.
[05:06] <fr500> captaingeek: you want to delete all the home directory and settings at logout?
[05:06] <HardyOne> !fixgrub | jedi-alex
[05:06] <ubotu> jedi-alex: 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
[05:06] <Jeffmeister> thanks hardy
[05:06] <jedi-alex> HardyOne thanks a lot man :D
[05:06] <Jeffmeister> was preety much what i needed to tellh im hehe
[05:07] <Christoz> andi5 look i'm sending you the part of the script for rotozoom this is @ http://pastebin.ca/954901
[05:07] <donkey7186> i kind of have a problem i installed something from linksys i enabled the WEP password protection thing
[05:07] <Jeffmeister> Flannel: It unpacked and then it started with Installing and Software started installing and then got to xsorb and then said please wait... 6% and stayed there for a while... and then said came out with an error you can try to skip. and all i could do was continue
[05:07] <donkey7186> how do i remove it
[05:08] <Jeffmeister> log into your router
[05:08] <Flannel> Jeffmeister: Oh, still during the install.  Does it do that consistantly?
[05:08] <Jeffmeister> i tried it twice
[05:08] <Jeffmeister> and it did it same place
[05:08] <Jeffmeister> but i downloaded straight from ubuntu
[05:08] <Jeffmeister> and burned it with poweriso
[05:08] <Jeffmeister> tdk cd-r
[05:09] <Jeffmeister> checked cd with ubuntu and was valid
[05:09] <Flannel> Jeffmeister: Do you have another computer to verify the CD with?
[05:09] <josh>  when i do setserial /dev/ttyS0 uart 16550a port 0x06A8 irq 4 baud_base 34800 my device works but when i put /dev/ttyS0 uart 16550a port 0x06A8 irq 4 baud_base 34800 in /etc/init.d/setserial, i get an error and the device doesn't work
[05:09] <Jeffmeister> i have another computer i can do it to, but its different specs
[05:09] <Jeffmeister> basic comp
[05:09] <Christoz> andi5 2 days before i've tried to sow my system where to find it with this command :checking for rotozoomSurfaceXY in -lSDL_gfx... yes
[05:09] <Christoz> checking SDL_rotozoom.h usability... no
[05:09] <Christoz> checking SDL_rotozoom.h presence... no
[05:09] <Christoz> checking for SDL_rotozoom.h... no
[05:10] <josh> arnt' i supposed to put that line in setserial?
[05:10] <Flannel> Jeffmeister: Thats fine, the CD does the verification.  We're just looking for different hardware to verify with.
[05:10] <Christoz> andi5 oops sorry
[05:10] <TheViLliN> ohhh boy,  does anyone have experience with ati drivers for an integrated x1250
[05:10] <bazhang> http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=4131809&postcount=9 Jeffmeister have yo seen this?
[05:10] <andi5> Christoz: hm... did you install to /usr/local before?  that is the include directory mentioned when compiling the test
[05:10] <Jeffmeister> flannel before i do that let me try the gutsy gibbon minimal
[05:11] <Rufus53__> Flannel: if i follow the instructions you gave me from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP, can I just install everything over the top of the existing setup?
[05:11] <andi5> Christoz: i would say either clean /usr/local completely or install sdl completely :)
[05:11] <bazhang> Jeffmeister: that link should do it for you in the livecd installer
[05:11] <josh>  when i do setserial /dev/ttyS0 uart 16550a port 0x06A8 irq 4 baud_base 34800 my device works but when i put /dev/ttyS0 uart 16550a port 0x06A8 irq 4 baud_base 34800 in /etc/init.d/setserial, i get an error and the device doesn't work
[05:11] <Flannel> Rufus53__: you can skip them, or re-do them, sure.  Skip the stuff you've already done, for instance.
[05:11] <Rufus53__> thanks, I'm trying it now
[05:11] <RioMerc> Hello ubuntu-ers
[05:12] <TuTUXG_> hi RioMerc
[05:12] <Christoz> andi5 well i tried to show system where to find it with this command : ./configure CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/include/SDL"
[05:12] <KiD_ChAoS> a man by the name of jocob loaded a sinister LKM upon my machine what do i do?
[05:12] <Jeffmeister> bazhang
[05:12] <RioMerc> Question: I have two monitors, a dual-head ATI card and fglrx. How do I go about setting up an extended desktop setup
[05:12] <LainIwakura> andi5: Thanks, I started with 'application filename &'. Now is it common to do a Ctrl+c after that so I can back to typing? What exactly does Ctrl+c do? When the application is closed, it also prints that out in the terminal--can I prevent this?
[05:12] <Christoz> andi5 that's abone /usr/local and worked
[05:12] <Jeffmeister> im gonna try that with the live cd see if it works ok
[05:13] <Christoz> andi5 this worked
[05:13] <HardyOne> LKM? KiD_ChAoS
[05:13] <mojo> Is there a history log on-line that i can search the irc chat to see if a question i asked earlier got answered?  I was afk a while ..
[05:13] <RioMerc> I've already tried BigDesktop, but phailure is the only thing that meets me. Every time.
[05:13] <TheViLliN> RioMerc :  lol,,  i have a similar trouble
[05:13] <Jeffmeister> bazhang the thing is i get beeps
[05:13] <Christoz> andi5 i've made make nad after make install
[05:13] <TuTUXG_> !dual-monitor
[05:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dual-monitor - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[05:13] <Jeffmeister> when the screen is off
[05:13] <mcquaid__> i'm trying to run that script that'll grab the appropriate fglrx version depending on your card.  the script is failing cause it's saying bad xorg.conf
[05:13] <TuTUXG_> !dual
[05:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dual - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[05:13] <Jeffmeister> and thats why i dont think the problem is that
[05:13] <RioMerc> Damnit

[05:13] <TuTUXG_> !dual-head
[05:13] <ubotu> Information about dual-head on linux can be found on http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/DualHead - See also !Xinerama
[05:13] <Christoz> andi5 but when i tried to lunch it the same error occurer again
[05:13] <KiD_ChAoS> HardyOne: Loadable Kerlnel Module
[05:13] <bazhang> Jeffmeister: lets worry about one thing at a time okay?
[05:13] <TheViLliN> RioMerc:  what res are you running
[05:14] <RioMerc> At the moment
[05:14] <RioMerc> 1280x1024
[05:14] <andi5> LainIwakura: ctrl-c sends an interrupt, causing many applications to cease... if you do not want them to print to the terminal, then start application &>/dev/null &
[05:14] <mojo> Flannel, thanks
[05:14] <mcquaid__> this is on a hardy beta box.  this is due to hardy's xorg using a minimal xorg.conf
[05:14] <RioMerc> But I've had it ad 800x600 a few times due to a fucked up xorg.conf
[05:14] <LainIwakura> andi5: Alright, thanks.
[05:14] <RioMerc> I'm on ubuntu 7.10, by the way
[05:14] <ExoticDancer23> HardyOne when i ./configure then i use make but then it say "bi targets specified and no makefile found. stop."
[05:14] <bazhang> #ubuntu+1 please mcquaid__
[05:14] <RioMerc> Thought I should probably mention that
[05:14] <andi5> Christoz: is there a --with-sdl=... flag to configure?
[05:14] <RioMerc> !logs > Riomerc
[05:14] <mcquaid__> anyway, can anyone using fglrx give me their xorg.conf from gutsy
[05:14] <RioMerc> Doesn't work :)
[05:15] <mcquaid__> bazhang, that's why i asked here
[05:15] <TheViLliN> RioMerc:   I must have reconfigured mine 20 times now.  can't get it out of 800x600
[05:15] <fr500> is gns3 available on ubuntu?
[05:15] <HardyOne> ExoticDancer23, sorry I cant help you.
[05:15] <KiD_ChAoS> who here chooses flux over gutsy
[05:15] <ExoticDancer23> HardyOne http://code.google.com/p/musictracker/
[05:15] <RioMerc> Mcquaid, I would, but it's unstable and configured for two monitors. When I say unstable, I mean it will explode your computer every startup
[05:15] <TheViLliN> witht hat driver anyways
[05:15] <Christoz> andi5 yes this :$ ./configure --with-sdl-gfx-prefix=/usr/local but didn't work
[05:15] <mcquaid__> cause i actually need a gutsy fglrx xorg.conf, the minimal hardy one is trying up this script, probably cause it's missing a screen section or something
[05:15] <Jeffmeister> brb
[05:15] <RioMerc> TheVillin: I can't even remember how the hell I managed to get it to this resolution
[05:15] <ExoticDancer23> HardyOne alright thank you very much
[05:15] <RioMerc> Do you have a dual setup?
[05:15] <andi5> Christoz: do you plan to use /usr or /usr/local now? ... i am ... confused
[05:15] <Christoz> andi5 i think i must format my system and reinstalling
[05:16] <bazhang> mcquaid__: you should pastebin your xorg.conf ih the other channel
[05:16] <andi5> format? .. o no
[05:16] <Christoz> andi5 i've tried both
[05:16] <cyborg> hi
[05:16] <andi5> Christoz: simply remove all contents of /usr/local and retry
[05:16] <pulpfiction> is there any GOOD ftp client, with folders monitoring, folders lock while navigating, etc?
[05:16] <Christoz> andi5 ok whatever bigman says
[05:16] <pulpfiction> i've already tested gftp, filezilla and fireftp, but they're too basic :(
[05:16] <mcquaid__> bazhang, you don't get it. i don't want help from hardy users, i wanted a 'gutsy' xorg.conf that's shall we say more complete but doesn't matter i'll find it
[05:17] <TheViLliN> RioMerc:  did you use the aticonfig tool???
[05:17] <RioMerc> Once, but it wasn't too successful
[05:17] <andi5> pulpfiction: folders monitoring?  does that mean that the clients keeps polling for directory changes?
[05:17] <RioMerc> In the end, I just used a default copy and did some really minor modifications
[05:17] <TheViLliN> RioMerc,   hmmm same here
[05:17] <bazhang> mcquaid__: sorry I do get it; this is for gutsy and that channel is for hardy
[05:17] <pulpfiction> andi5, yes
[05:17] <mcquaid__> yep, that's why i don't want to be there
[05:17] <RioMerc> Thevillin: What if I send you my xorg.conf?
[05:18] <mcquaid__> and you must not get it, but again it's ok
[05:18] <TheViLliN> RioMerc:   sure
[05:18] <TheViLliN> RioMerc:  plz
[05:18] <yowshi> hmmm i am trying to unmount a drive but it is saying it is busy. how do i find out whats using it
[05:18] <andi5> pulpfiction: i guess asking for the _why_ is not wanted, right? :)
[05:18] <mcquaid__> bazhang, put it this way, if one was asking someone else for a sample gutsy xorg.conf, would they go to ubuntu or ubuntu+1
[05:18] <TuTUXG_> mcquaid__, what r u looking for in xorg.conf?
[05:18] <KiD_ChAoS> buy a dell TheViLliN
[05:19] <pulpfiction> andi5, it's a feature, you may use it or may not.. but sometimes it's quite useful :)
[05:19] <RioMerc> Kid_ChAoS, Die.
[05:19] <TheViLliN> Kid_chaos:  lol,  thats funny
[05:19] <RioMerc> D:
[05:19] <co_manies> ce_baek
[05:19] <RioMerc> You said the D word
[05:19] <mcquaid__> TuTUXG_, i was trying to run this script: http://kanotix.com/files/install-fglrx-debian.sh.  it complains about a bad xorg.conf
[05:19] <elthan> pulpfiction: a tick in tintin++ ;)
[05:19] <cyborg> i wana by a lenovo 3000 n200 with t7100 processor 2GB ram and intel x3100 vga. my questions: 1. compiz runing on tjhis vga? 2. HD movies(720p) playig this machine with no laggs?  sorry for little english
[05:20] <mcquaid__> on this box i'm running hardy beta. in hardy, xorg uses a real minimal xorg.conf supposdedly this screws up this script
[05:20] <legend2440> mcquaid__: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60831/
[05:20] <bazhang> TuTUXG_: he is running hardy but wants a sample gutsy xorg.conf
[05:20] <andi5> Q: is it just me that keeps issuing 'killall npviewer.bin' every second day?
[05:20] <RioMerc> TheVilin: Check your channels menu :P
[05:20] <KiD_ChAoS> TheViLliN: what do you run
[05:20] <pulpfiction> elthan, tintin++ - is that a ftp client name? :P
[05:20] <mojo> mcquaid__, okay, you are asking for a #stock# gutsy xorg config to use with some script?
[05:20] <KiD_ChAoS> RioMerc: what do you run'
[05:20] <mcquaid__> legend2440, thx looks perfect. just wanted a clean xorg.conf
[05:20] <RioMerc> What do I run?
[05:21] <mcquaid__> mojo, i should be ok thx
[05:21] <RioMerc> I run ubuntu :P
[05:21] <RioMerc> Hardware or software?
[05:21] <TheViLliN> kid_chaos:  which one
[05:21] <legend2440> mcquaid__yw gl
[05:21] <emman> anybody here knows bash programming?
[05:21] <RioMerc> TheVillin: Check your channels menu
[05:21] <ethan961> !lag
[05:21] <ubotu> You have lag, I don't have lag
[05:21] <bazhang> #bash does emman
[05:21] <captaingeek> !lag
[05:21] <elthan> pulpfiction: no, it's a MUD client, but there's some useful scripting built in. probably a bash script way to do it
[05:22] <Christoz> adi5 when your system is completely new what folder and files all in /usr/local?
[05:22] <TheViLliN> Riomerc:  what am i lookinf for
[05:22] <captaingeek> !dynamips
[05:22] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dynamips - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[05:22] <KiD_ChAoS> TheViLliN: what kind of computer do you have? identify the brand of parts?
[05:22] <TuTUXG_> mcquaid__, what's the error? bad xorg.conf file?
[05:22] <Christoz> andi5 when your system is completely new what folder and files all in /usr/local?
[05:22] <RioMerc> Thevillin: Perhaps a window titled RioMerc?
[05:22] <andi5> Christoz: puh, it is not empty here anymore, but usually you can remove /usr/local *completely*
[05:22] <jzinta> agreed
[05:23] <cyborg> i wana by a lenovo 3000 n200 with t7100 processor 2GB ram and intel x3100 vga. my questions: 1. compiz runing on tjhis vga? 2. HD movies(720p) playig this machine with no laggs?  sorry for little english
[05:23] <pulpfiction> elthan, sorry, but what's a MUD?
[05:23] <RioMerc> Multi User Dungeon
[05:23] <emman> is it possible to create virus using bash?
[05:23] <RioMerc> It's like Nethack online :P
[05:23] <RioMerc> emman, very possibly
[05:23] <KiD_ChAoS> WHO RUNS FLUXBOX AND LIKES IT MORE THAN GUTSY? im thinkg of switching
[05:24] <emman> how do i start?
[05:24] <HinHin> emman, http://en.tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/ is quite a good guide
[05:24] <RioMerc> emman, I don't think anyone would morally tell you though, and apparmor is pretty strong
[05:24] <andi5> emman: with bash internal commands?  i highly doubt that... and once you start execing external programs, you cannot call it bash-only anymore
[05:24] <KiD_ChAoS> emman: type deltree on a win98 box
[05:24] <mojo> pulpfiction, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MUD
[05:25] <bazhang> emman: create a virus? for what purpose?
[05:25] <legend2440> Dr_willis:  i installed pastebinit. what is the command to send file to paste bin? ie xorg.conf?
[05:25] <M4rotku> can any1 help me with my sound? it is not working atm
[05:25] <emman> andi5 bash calling a script is it possible?
[05:25] <TheViLliN> kid_chaos:  asus m2a-vm, am2 4400+, 2 gig.   im on a budget  ;)
[05:25] <andi5> bazhang: replace all system binaries in /usr/bin by symlinks to /bin/bash :)
[05:25] <RioMerc> Bazhang: Crazy guess here: Infecting people?
[05:25] <bazhang> legend2440: cat and pipe it to pastebinit
[05:26] <andi5> emman: "bash calling a script"?  what do you mean?
[05:26] <emman> bazhang one can be a good programmer if he knows how to destroy and fix a system
[05:26] <RioMerc> TheVillin: Accept?
[05:26] <hischild> andi5, he's probably trying to make a forkbomb
[05:26] <legend2440> bazhang: cat etc/X11/xorg.conf  | pastebinit?
[05:26] <kindofabuzz> hola
[05:26] <emman> forkbomb?
[05:26] <KiD_ChAoS> type: ls *.*
[05:26] <bazhang> emman: why do you want to create a virus? that sounds fishy..
[05:26] <emman> whats that?
[05:26] <bazhang> legend2440: aye
[05:27] <legend2440> bazhang:  ok ty
[05:27] <emman> because its exciting way to learn programming
[05:27] <emman> im just a starter
[05:27] <RioMerc> REALLY
[05:27] <RioMerc> VIRUS CREATION SOUNDS FISHY!?
[05:27] <marauder> errr   uhh   buggy   thumbs down
[05:27] <RioMerc> When did that happen?
[05:27] <kindofabuzz> why not create a program that solves a real problem instead of creating a virus?

[05:28]  * andi5 laughs
[05:28] <Christoz> andi5 how can i remove everything in there?
[05:28] <marauder> virus, lame,   try removing them off machines all day for a while.   then you will really know
[05:28] <emman> you have to destroy something in order to learn how to fix it
[05:28] <marauder> at least make it so the user never sees it
[05:28] <emman> i want to destroy my ubuntu
[05:29] <bazhang> emman: more info about viruses can be found in ##windows
[05:29] <emman> and find ways to fix it
[05:29] <hischild> emman, that's incorrect
[05:29] <andi5> Christoz: sudo rm -rf /usr/local .... make sure you have no typo in it and do not delete stuff you need :)
[05:29] <emman> nah
[05:29] <marauder> yes
[05:29] <emman> i want it in linux
[05:29] <RioMerc> emman: Fuck no.
[05:29] <bazhang> emman: that is offtopic here
[05:29] <emman> why/
[05:29] <Starnestommy> emman: and it's probably illegal
[05:29] <andi5> emman: destroy your linux?  ... man shred
[05:29] <emman> My linux
[05:30] <emman> and fix it after
[05:30] <RioMerc> emman: Oddly enough, the best way to learn how to fix somthing is to fix it. I don't know how it happened, but I think it has somthing to do with logic and common sense
[05:30] <bazhang> emman: still offtopic here
[05:30] <RioMerc> emman: Throw your hard drive out the window and put the bits together again

[05:30] <andi5> emman: well, remove /usr/bin/gnome-panel and reinstall from the console or your running terminal ;-)
[05:31] <RioMerc> pike_ tells the truth
[05:31] <emman> it can be done easily
[05:31] <bazhang> enough with the ot

[05:31] <RioMerc> I have no idea how to use it

[05:31] <emman> a bash that would insert code to the kernel
[05:32] <RioMerc> emman, probably not
[05:32] <RioMerc> AppArmor says no.
[05:32] <emman> why?

[05:36] <dabbill> Any one useing an 8800 video card? if so what drivers are you useing? I cant seem to get any type of performace out of my 8800GT.
[05:36] <TuTUXG__> RioMerc, u probably need to sudo apt-get install pastebinit first
[05:36] <RioMerc> Naw, just used synaptic
[05:36] <bazhang> it should come by default imo
[05:36] <RioMerc> Agreed
[05:36] <TuTUXG__> not here
[05:36] <TuTUXG__> ...
[05:36] <RioMerc> Yeah, that sh!! is HANDY
[05:37] <Dr_willis> dabbill,  using an 8800 here - using the restricted-manager drivers worked fine for me.
[05:37] <Omerta> .
[05:38] <spartan7> Hi peeps
[05:38] <dabbill> Dr_willis, it wouldnt detect my card
[05:38] <Omerta> whatup
[05:38] <RioMerc> Hey hey, I turned on my registration
[05:38] <RioMerc> There's TheVillin.
[05:38] <Dr_willis> dabbill,  and thats my fault? :)
[05:38] <nikrud> Dr_willis which 8800 do you have? I've seen some stuff about the 8800gt not being supported till a later release of nvidia's driver
[05:38] <dabbill> Dr_willis, no lol, was just sayin :(
[05:38] <Dr_willis> nikrud, 8800gtsxxx I belive is the exact Name
[05:39]  * nikrud looks forward to the video drivers getting synced up again
[05:39] <RioMerc> I don't suppose anyone wants to help me setup BigDesktop for flgrx?
[05:39] <Rufus53__> Flannel: that LAMP tutorial didn't work
[05:39] <dabbill> ahh i have 8800GT in my linux box, and 8800GTX in my windows box
[05:39] <Dr_willis> nikrud,  its amaxing how different they cam  make these 8800 cards...
[05:39] <bullgard4> After Ctrl+Alt+F1 I can return to my X now only after pressing Ctrl+Alt+F8. In the past it used to be Ctrl+Alt+F7. Pressing now Ctrl+Alt+F7 displays a console with 4 lines of text starting with 'Reloading' and an active prompt. There are only 6 getty processes. What is the reason that the X windows system moved?
[05:39] <ce_mniez_bgetz> irc
[05:39] <dabbill> almost worth it to trade them.

[05:45] <RioMerc> Ogg pwns hard with quality
[05:45] <BlueATHeart> i've never looked...is there much support for Ogg in the DAP market?
[05:46] <RioMerc> Possibly not.
[05:46] <hdxx> Morning, does anyone has problem with flash in ubuntu? firefox, opera, epiphany freezing?
[05:46] <zcat[1]> ogg is good until you try and find something that will play it...

[05:46] <bazhang> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=112112 nikrud this seems to be it; host but you need to add the external (outside of router) ip

[05:46] <TuTUXG__> hdxx, that's a known problem
[05:46] <who__> can somebody tell me how to disable the screen from shutting off after a short time?
[05:46] <fab4fan> I've got a little music player but it won't read ogg files... it will read mp3 though, any suggestions ?
[05:46] <andi5> michael__: is that a problem specific to a certain pdf you are trying to visualize?
[05:46] <BlueATHeart> I use Mp3.....but only cause I have 80gb of mp3s....so moving to ogg is not practical in the slightest
[05:46] <nikrud> bazhang it was a brain fart, as soon as you said it I went AHA!
[05:47] <TheViLliN> RioMerc:  nice,   i'll have to use that site.   no worrys.  I have like 25 backups there now  lol.   I could just dpkg-reconfig too   ;)
[05:47] <hdxx> TuTUXG_: thats wierd, because in other distros flash works perfect

[06:02] <andi5> bazhang: you are right, there is a space missing!
[06:02] <RioMerc> Sorry 'bout !language
[06:02] <tritium> bullgard4: since by default you're not running bind
[06:02] <Animagladius> Cya guys

[06:03] <kindofabuzz> what's the command to see how the hard drives are mapped by grub?

[06:04] <tritium> RioMerc: well, you've promptly apologized each time.  Please do refrain from the foul language.  Thanks.
[06:04] <Jeffmeister> this is at install tho rmz

[06:04] <RioMerc> Yeah, I slip up with language every now and agian

[06:04] <RioMerc> Used to the rest of the non-family-friendly internet
[06:04] <andi5> kindofabuzz: you may have luck that the current mapping is the same as when booting, so issue grub and then use (hdx,y)/ <tab> completion to list files... just a wild guess
[06:05] <Jeffmeister> brb
[06:05] <devicenull> What would cause the context menu option "start with wine" to fail, and running the program manually through the console to work?
[06:05] <bullgard4> tritium: Do you refer to "The Berkeley Internet Name Domain (BIND) is the most widely-used name server software on the Internet"?
[06:06] <kindofabuzz> well i installed mepis but didn't install it's grub cause i didn't wanna overwrite this one, but now i wanna add it to grup, i know it's on sda3 but grub uses sytzx like hd(0,1)
[06:06] <andi5> bullgard4: bind9, yes i suppose that is the application to the description you mentioned
[06:06] <tritium> bullgard4: yes, of which you only have the bind9-host package, and not the bind9 server package
[06:06] <zcat[1]> !bind9
[06:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bind9 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

[06:06] <Zasch> Hello. Is there a way to search for files in Ubuntu?
[06:06] <zcat[1]> Zasch: locate
[06:06] <kindofabuzz> whereis
[06:06] <pike_> Zasch: several
[06:06] <tritium> and which
[06:06] <zcat[1]> Zasch: or the search tool on the toolbar (looks like a magnifying glass)
[06:07] <andi5> Zasch: find :)
[06:07] <kindofabuzz> or he probably means through a gui
[06:07] <kindofabuzz> i know my tracker doesn't work
[06:07] <Zasch> pike_: What are some of the other ones?
[06:07] <pike_> Zasch: there are also some good search tools you can install through the package manager like beagle
[06:07] <zcat[1]> Places > Search for files
[06:07] <andi5> Zasch: what do you try to achieve?
[06:08] <bullgard4> andi5, tritium On my Ubuntu 7.10 computer there is the DEB program package 'bind9-host' installed.
[06:08] <tritium> bullgard4: as I told you there was
[06:08] <Saraphim> Hi everyone. Is there a way that I can start a program on another user's X server= Say user Joe is logged on an x server and I want to log in as user Joe on an ssh client and start a program on the running X server?
[06:08] <Zasch> andi5: I need to scan a large number of documents, and there is a standardised naming pattern ([Year][Department ID][Section ID][Part ID]), and I need to be able to pull up specific documents quickly
[06:09] <Rhihannisu> linux n00b here, have a gui question.  is there a way to set different background images/wallpapers for each workspace?
[06:09] <neeto> Does anyone know anything about DNS forwarding on a local network using bind9?
[06:09] <bazhang> Saraphim: with or without their knowledge?
[06:10] <pike_> Rhihannisu: yes in xubuntu (xfce) and kde (kubuntu) fraid im not sure about gnome
[06:10] <andi5> Zasch: do those files change a lot?  i suppose you could either index them, using beagle or trackerd, or use slocate (with anacron)
[06:10] <Saraphim> bazhang: Currently I can start the program AS their user, so I suppose they won't be able to know either way?
[06:11] <bazhang> Saraphim: with their permission? what program are you trying to run and to what end?
[06:11] <Rhihannisu> k thanx Pike, tho I am using gnome for now.  long-time windows guy trying to defect...
[06:11] <pike_> Rhihannisu: you might search ubuntuforums.org im sure it comes up often
[06:11] <Zasch> andi5: The files should never change after they are put on the computer. Another thing that it needs to be able to do is pull up documents that partially match the filename (so, for instance, if I wanted everything from 2007 from Department 1, I could type in 200701 and get everything). One problem is that I've already put several documents on the computer, but they don't show up in search
[06:12] <Saraphim> bazhang: It's a general case. In this case I want to start transmission on their end, but as I said, it's a general case. What I want is for their program to turn up on their graphical interface even though I've started it from a remote SSH terminal.
[06:12] <bazhang> Saraphim: you want to use their computer as a zombie botnet? is that the gist of it?
[06:12] <andi5> Zasch: you could also use file globbing, like 2008-*-*-whatever.txt and alike (google will help)
[06:13] <tsukasa> hey guys, my tab autocompletion isnt working with sudo - any idea why?
[06:13] <Saraphim> bazhang: No, not at all. I've killed a program remotely because it was being a problem and now I want to restart it and make it appear on their desktop again.
[06:13] <bullgard4> tritium: On my computer the DEB program package 'bind9' is not installed. Synaptic says: "Internet Domain Name Server." Would I have a /var/named directory if I installed the 'bind9' package?
[06:13] <bazhang> Saraphim: why not just use rtorrent then? no gui
[06:13] <andi5> tsukasa: you mean it does not auto-complete binaries in root's PATH but not in yours?
[06:14]  * omolina is away: Not here
[06:14] <Saraphim> bazhang: Because I want it to reappear on their desktop. :-)
[06:14] <tritium> bullgard4: I told you you'd only have the bind9-host package installed.  And no, the bind9 package doesn't include /var/named.  Why do you want that directory?
[06:14] <tsukasa> andi5, it will complete directories but not say apt-get or mkfs.<tab>
[06:14] <Zasch> andi5: Hmm. I'm trying to use Tracker, and it is finding some (old) files but not others. Why would this be the case?
[06:14] <Saraphim> bazhang: A more general question then; Is there no way I can launch a program from ssh that will use the target machine's X server as display?
[06:15] <andi5> Zasch: i have no idea... i personally strongly dislike programs disturbing my usual work flow :)
[06:15] <bullgard4> tritium: In order to learn more about the meaning of Red Hat's 'Zone files'.
[06:15] <bazhang> talk about offtopic ;]
[06:16] <andi5> Zasch: please re-ask generically, i.e. do not address me =)
[06:16] <tritium> bullgard4: truly offtopic in an ubuntu channel
[06:16] <pike_> Saraphim: 'w' to see whos logged in and their display. then export DISPLAY=0:0  then gedit & or whatever is that what you mean?
[06:16] <Zasch> I'm trying to use Tracker to find some stuff. It will find old files, but not new ones. Why is this?
[06:16] <andi5> [ot] let us spread fud about redhat...
[06:16] <RioMerc> Hmm
[06:16] <tsukasa> andi5, any idea whats wrong?
[06:16] <legend2440> tsukasa: when i type sudo apt <TAB> i have to hit tab twice before it works
[06:16] <bazhang> Saraphim: any reason you cannot just ask them to start it? do they know you can ssh into their boxes?
[06:17] <tsukasa> legend2440, i can button mash tab it wont autocomplete
[06:17] <andi5> tsukasa: i am not sure i understand what kind of autocompletion you mean... could you please elaborate?
[06:17] <RioMerc> I don't suppose anyone has experience with a Dual Desktop setup?
[06:17] <pike_> RioMerc: i have exp poiting to this url :-) http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/DualHead
[06:17] <bullgard4> tritium: Please tell me please why Ubuntu is not concerned with 'Zone files' and 'PTR' and 'Resource records'.
[06:18] <bazhang> bullgard4:  please read /topic
[06:18] <legend2440> tsukasa:  does it work if you type apt <TAB> without sudo?
[06:18] <tsukasa> andi5, if im doing sudo cd /et<tab> it will complete to etc, but if i do sudo apt-get install firefo<tab> nothing happens. Same with commands, if im trying to autocomplete to 'compiz' and its preceded by sudo, sudo comp<tab> completes nothing
[06:18] <tsukasa> legend2440, yes ti does
[06:18] <andi5> bullgard4: please install bind9 first
[06:18] <tritium> bullgard4: you asked about "Red Hat's 'Zone Files'," which is why it was offtopic
[06:18] <Zasch> As another question: Is there any way to encrypt things in Ubuntu?
[06:18] <bazhang> Zasch: sure
[06:18] <tritium> Zasch: sure, with gpg, for one
[06:19] <andi5> tsukasa: because the auto-completion code detects sudo as executable and not apt-get
[06:19] <pike_> Zasch: a few
[06:19] <pike_> !truecrypt
[06:19] <ubotu> Truecypt is a free open-source on-the-fly disk encryption software.  See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TruecryptHiddenVolume
[06:19] <pike_> Zasch: thats whole disk encryption though
[06:19] <tsukasa> andi5, how do i fix it though
[06:19] <andi5> tsukasa: you could work in a root shell with sudo -i
[06:20] <Zasch> All I'd like to do is encrypt things like data on customers, that sort of thing
[06:20] <tsukasa> andi5, yeah but in gutsy this worked. im running the heron beta right now
[06:20] <bazhang> #ubuntu+1 please tsukasa
[06:21] <andi5> tsukasa: i suppose bash-completion is still installed?

[06:24] <Zasch> Are there such a thing as "free" and "unfree" image formats?
[06:24] <bazhang> tsukasa: this is not the channel for it you have been told several times politely
[06:24] <tsukasa> legend2440, yeah, i have the feeling this is just a switch or a whitelist somewhere though
[06:25] <tsukasa> bazhang, i can tell you something several times too doesnt make me any more of an authority on the subject

[06:32] <travisat> LainIwakura: you should be able too, but there is a small chance it can mess up your windows partition
[06:33] <LainIwakura> travisat: Okay. Will reading files on the NTFS partition mess up with my Windows partition?
[06:33] <travisat> LainIwakura: no reading will have no effect
[06:33] <LainIwakura> travisat: Thanks.
[06:34] <travisat> LainIwakura: in almost all cases writing should have no effect either, but since ntfs is proprietary and the methods are reverse engineered there is a small chance on writing you can mess it up
[06:34] <pike_> LainIwakura: writing is considered stable now as well for some time
[06:34] <pike_> LainIwakura: worst case.. you lose windows :)

[06:55] <bazhang> xb3rt: you might wait a couple of weeks when it will be in the Hardy repos
[06:56] <cabrioleur> inflex, Scribus is a publishing tool (making newspapers, bulletins, etc), inkscape is a vector drawing software (like corel draw)
[06:56] <xb3rt> bazhang: i had it on here, and reinstalled the OS a few weeks ago, but forgot how i got it
[06:57] <inflex> thanks cabrioleur
[06:57] <bazhang> xb3rt: is that icedtea or the jre?

[06:58] <xb3rt> bazhang: jre
[06:58] <ricksta1080> gutsy
[06:59] <legend2440> ricksta1080: cause ksayit is a kde app and it might be easier to get festival working
[06:59] <bazhang> gutsy has gnome and kde and xfce ;]
[06:59] <ricksta1080> is festival a program that does the same thing?
[06:59] <ricksta1080> the same thing as ksayit

[07:22] <crashhandler> haha
[07:23] <eric84> didn't want to interrupt =]
[07:24] <eric84> i installed for the first time on a completely new hdd, was using synaptic to get security updates and it locked up, i rebooted, and now when i login it basically locks up with just the background color, the gui doesnt appear
[07:24] <gyro54> Evening all, what is the best SQL creator gui
[07:24] <eric84> do i need to reinstall the os?
[07:25] <kounryusui> eric84: reinstall would be the easiest and quickest solution
[07:25] <eric84> any idea why it might have locked up during the update.. or something i should do to prevent that from happening again?
[07:26] <legend2440> fnordarius: do you have gutsy updates selected in synaptic repositories?
[07:27] <fnordarius> ok this is the rror msg
[07:27] <fnordarius> E: /var/cache/apt/archives/language-pack-de_1%3a8.04+20080317_all.deb: trying to overwrite `/usr/share/locale-langpack/de/LC_MESSAGES/shared-mime-info.mo', which is also in package language-pack-gnome-de

[07:27] <fnordarius> fire in the hole or something
[07:28] <legend2440> fnordarius: you running hardy?
[07:28] <fnordarius> yeah
[07:28] <bazhang> #ubuntu+1 please fnordarius
[07:28] <Adpad> hi all, really been battling with installation of Video drivers, can anyone help?
[07:28] <legend2440> fnordarius: #ubuntu+1 is help channel for hardy they may know
[07:29] <bazhang> crashhandler: kopete seems to work fine with chinese characters here; just make sure you have skim installed and configured and that should do it
[07:29] <bazhang> Adpad: which card and driver and how installed please
[07:29] <crashhandler> bazhang^  ok,thanks for the info,,ill configure skim noww
[07:30] <bazhang> crashhandler: you need to install it first iirc ;]
[07:30] <Adpad> bazhang: nVidia drivers for 6600 GT, installed using standard manual download based on a forum guide, also tried to use Envy
[07:30] <crashhandler> bazhang^  ive installed it just now,but where to run skim?
[07:30] <smehmood> hey all, is there a way I can access the files that are in the release cdrom repo from an online repo?
[07:30] <bazhang> Adpad: uh oh envy
[07:31] <Adpad> bazhang: I was desperate
[07:31] <Adpad> :(
[07:31] <Adpad> now I'm updating Ubuntu to see if that helps
[07:31] <bazhang> Adpad: why not use the restricted drivers manager? that usually does the trick
[07:31] <Adpad> I've got the KDE Community version
[07:32] <Adpad> is there an equivalent on KDE?
[07:32] <bazhang> crashhandler: have you checked in utiltites for taht?
[07:33] <bazhang> smehmood: you want to update and it asks for the cd?
[07:33] <smehmood> bazhang: no I want to install a package (pptp-linux) and then it prompts me to insert a CD which I don't have with me
[07:33] <bazhang> Adpad: sure just a sec
[07:33] <Adpad> thanks a lot :)
[07:34] <eric84> what would be the easiest way for me to reinstall ubuntu if i can't boot to the os?
[07:34] <Adpad> bazhang: do you recommend I do a complete uninstall of Envy btw>?
[07:34] <bazhang> smehmood: ah well then go into software sources and disable the cd as a source
[07:34] <Dr_willis> eric84,  best would be to fix the installed OS. not reinxtall at all.
[07:34] <moDumass> hey all, anyone know how to mount a HDD in a NAS as a local HDD?
[07:34] <smehmood> bazhang: I just finished commenting it out, hopeing it'd work
[07:35] <eric84> willis: someone else suggested a reinstall would be easiest... what would you suggest if after logging it freezes, no desktop appears?
[07:35] <eric84> sorry, not logging it, logging in
[07:36] <bazhang> smehmood now hit refresh (or sudo apt-get update) and then try again
[07:36] <balle> i have some problems playing mp3 files and viewing dvd's. the dvd's needs some codecs which i can't seem to install, and there just doesnt come any sound out on the mp3's
[07:36] <bazhang> balle: you have ubuntu-restricted-extras installed?
[07:36] <Dr_willis> eric84,  boot the rescie mode see if you can get to a console.  if using an ati card. et X to use the vesa driver, or ati driver
[07:37] <balle> Bazhang: yea i did that install yesterday, still nothing works
[07:37] <msx98> hi
[07:37] <flowOver> !lamp
[07:37] <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+)
[07:37] <foldart> !libdvdcss | balle
[07:37] <ubotu> balle: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[07:37] <bazhang> balle: and you went to medibuntu for libdvdcss2?
[07:38] <eric84> Dr_willis: i tried using the boot cd but it just bumped me back to the live cd mode, is there a key stroke or something to get into rescue mode?
[07:38] <balle> bazhang: yea i tried that as well, still doesnt compute..
[07:38] <bazhang> balle: well those are not very informative error messages--could you be more precise please? could be a sound and/or graphics issue as well
[07:39] <eric84> Dr_willis: i'm sorry that was probably a stupid question, do i just use the live cd to run a terminal?
[07:40] <Dr_willis> eric84,  thats one way.. but normally theres a rescue/recovery entry in the grub menus when you boot
[07:40] <balle> Bazhang: well, if i try to play an mp3, even in root, it will play along just fine, but no sound will ever appear to be heard
[07:40] <Dr_willis> eric84,  what is your video card?
[07:40] <bazhang> Adpad: are you on that computer now?
[07:41] <Adpad> yes
[07:41] <eric84> Dr_willis: it's a winfast geforce 2
[07:41] <Adpad> I am :)
[07:41] <kindofabuzz> balle: are you sure your sound works?
[07:41] <bazhang> Adpad: could you pastebin your xorg.conf?
[07:41] <balle> kindofabuzz: well, no actually how can i check that?
[07:41] <kindofabuzz> did you here anything when you log on?
[07:42] <Adpad> bazhang: sure, but it's changed so many times, yet I always get a blackscreen, so I always have to restore to default
[07:42] <kindofabuzz> you should hear a startup sound
[07:42] <kindofabuzz> gotta start simple first: are your speakers on and plugged in?
[07:43] <balle> kinofabuzz: i hear nothing of the kind, though i have heard some sounds, when using internet messenger...
[07:43] <balle> kingofabuzz: i'll check that
[07:43] <kindofabuzz> oh ok
[07:43] <kindofabuzz> hehe i like that, kingofabuzz
[07:43] <Adpad> bazhang: is it alright if I query you? it might make things a little easier to follow ;)
[07:44] <balle> kindofabuzz: heh, sry bout that
[07:44] <emja> can anyone point me to a howto/faq (or tell me this is impossible) for mounting a LVM volume/partition in a USB enclosure? I have a HDD pre-partitioned with LVM which I then plonked in a UCB enclosure. How do I access the contents?
[07:44] <emja> s/UCB/USB/
[07:44] <eric84> Dr_willis: i don't see anything about rescue/recovery when i boot... there's no grub menu displayed
[07:45] <Dr_willis> eric84,  try hiting the escape key? I hate how ubuntu likes to hied the default grub stuff
[07:45] <Dr_willis> Normally theres 2 entries for each kernel.
[07:45] <eric84> k thx
[07:46] <bazhang> Adpad: better to do it in channel and share the knowledge ;] if you install pastebinit and then cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | pastebinit it will give you a url to post here
[07:46] <emja> Dr_Link: gotta be dumbed down for the masses, eh? ;-)
[07:46] <emja> oops...
[07:46] <emja> Dr_willis: gotta be dumbed down for the masses, eh? ;-)
[07:46] <emja> sheesh
[07:46] <eric84> i certainly know about as little as possible =D
[07:46] <bazhang> emja: support question?
[07:46] <Adpad> bazhang: okay, cool, no problem - but please remember that it's the default and only working config - when I install anything it dies!
[07:46] <balle> kindofabuzz: no sound on anything sadly...
[07:46] <emja> bazhang: sorry?
[07:47] <bazhang> emja: name calling not really welcome here thanks
[07:47] <Dr_willis> all the recovery mode does is append the  'single' option to the end of hte kernel optiosn it seems
[07:47] <emja> bazhang: name calling?
[07:47] <Dr_willis> (recovery) single
[07:47] <Dr_willis> I wish they had a 'real' recovery mode. that ran some wizard to fix select issues
[07:47] <eric84> Dr_willis: i got into the recovery mode.. what should i look for next?
[07:48] <bazhang> emja: we were all new users once; you know what I am talking about
[07:48] <Dr_willis> eric84,  ive totally frogenten your original problem...
[07:48] <legend2440> balle: have you checked System>preferences>sound to check if anything plays?
[07:48] <eric84> hehe, sorry.. i was running synaptic after a fresh new install, it locked up, i rebooted, now when i login it just locks up
[07:48] <Jeffmeister> Im just about done with ubuntu. For the last 10 hours I have been trying to install. I got a Q6600, 8800GT, 3GB DDR2, x86 (32bit) system. Live CD gives me beeping/black screen on regular/lowgraphics, alternate cd will not install correctly, even the minimal install doesn't work... anyone wanna try to help?
[07:49] <emja> bazhang: ahh... I can see the honest misunderstanding. No, you're way off mark, but I can see how that happened.
[07:49] <bazhang> emja okay then no worries
[07:49] <emja> bazhang: your concern is appreciated, however
[07:49] <Jeffmeister> and the fact that i dont have my laptop is ticking me off even more
[07:49] <bazhang> Jeffmeister: best to take a break; Rome was not built in a day
[07:49] <Jeffmeister> ya
[07:49] <Jeffmeister> i think
[07:50] <Jeffmeister> im gonna give it a shot tomarrow
[07:50] <bazhang> Jeffmeister: we will be here ;]
[07:50] <Dr_willis> some new machines just have odd-bios oddities. :(
[07:50] <eric84> heh
[07:50] <moDumass> hey all, so i have a NAS device with 2 hdds in it. 1 200giger, and 1 500giger, i can see the 200giger, but i cant remember how to mount the 500giger
[07:50] <moDumass> any ideas
[07:50] <Dr_willis> try some other live cd's to see if any other disrtos work.
[07:50] <msx98> when will ubuntu 8.04 be released?
[07:50] <Jeffmeister> i heard about some hdci setting in the bios that might help
[07:50] <moDumass> im not asking google the right questions
[07:50] <emja> msx98: late next month, I think
[07:50] <bazhang> msx98: late april #ubuntu+1 for more thanks
[07:51] <eric84> Dr_willis: did you see my reply?
[07:51] <Adpad> bazhang: sorry for the delay, just waiting for processes to free up (i'm busy updating ;)
[07:51] <zcat[1]> Jeffmeister: I think mostly you have a video card that's not well supported in ubuntu yet. If there's a LUG in your area, it might be best to find someone there that can help you get stuff running.
[07:51] <bazhang> Adpad: no hurry ;]
[07:51] <Jeffmeister> alot of people with 8800GT have installed with no problem
[07:51] <yowshi> i have something wierd going on with my mount command mount -a tells me that /dev/hda1 doesnt exist i cd to the directory and it does indeed not exist nor does fdisk -l find an hda1 but for some reason mount -a seems to think there is one. how would i diagnose what the cause of this is
[07:52] <bazhang> Jeffmeister: true; and yours can be fixed as well--best to get some shuteye first ;]
[07:52] <emja> so, anyone know if it is possible to mount a LVM partn in a USB enclosure?
[07:52] <zcat[1]> Jeffmeister: Hmmm, yeah. Problems arise when you try ti install the nvidia drivers. Who knows..
[07:52] <Dr_willis> eric84,  i woudl start with a 'sudo apt-get update' and 'sudo apt-get upgrade'
[07:52] <Adpad> how do I get a drive to mount if it isn't responding after an unclean shutdown??
[07:53] <Dr_willis> eric84,  it could be it crashed befor it properly installed the video card drivers
[07:53] <Lapinux> Jeffmeister: you still here
[07:53] <kindofabuzz> jeff did you try  changing spalsh to nosplash at the boot options?
[07:53] <zcat[1]> Jeffmeister: ran into that card a couple of times tho.. a bit of a hassle but once it's going it's a pretty good card
[07:53] <Dr_willis> Adpad,  you mean a ntfs filesystem? or ext2/3?
[07:53] <Adpad> Dr_willis: sorry, ntfs
[07:53] <eric84> Dr_willis: k, thanks for your help
[07:54] <Lapinux> Jeffmeister: I have almost the same system as you, Q6600, 6800GT, 4GB ram, but am running 7.10 64bit
[07:54] <bazhang> Jeffmeister: I want to get that card; so will make sure it works for you ;]
[07:54] <Dr_willis> Adpad,  try to mount it manually. You will most likely see a message about a 'force option' OR you can reboot to windows and let windows check the disks, and proplery shut down.
[07:54] <kindofabuzz> Jeffmeister: change quite splash to nosplash at boot options
[07:54] <Adpad> cool
[07:55] <zcat[1]> 8500GT here, no problems.. the 8800gt isn't supported in nvidia-glx-new iirc..
[07:55] <Adpad> The reason is: I've _really_ been battling to get virtualbox working with an EXISTING windows installation
[07:55] <Lapinux> Jeffmeister: err i meant 8600GT
[07:55] <Adpad> it goes crazy, very slow, and mouse clicks uncontrollably
[07:55] <brianlight> Adpad is this drive a Seagate Freeagent drive?
[07:55] <[[thufir]]> what's the correct way to set $JAVA_HOME?  .bashrc?
[07:55] <Jeffmeister> ya im here
[07:55] <kindofabuzz> Jeffmeister: are you running SLI?
[07:55] <Jeffmeister> no
[07:55] <Jeffmeister> just single card
[07:56] <Adpad> brianlight: not a Seagate Freeagent I don't think
[07:56] <kindofabuzz> try the nosplash option

[07:56] <Lapinux> Jeffmeister: when its booting, did you let it go for a bit and watch your pc for activity?
[07:56] <kindofabuzz> if you haven't
[07:56] <Jeffmeister> i cant boot
[07:56] <Jeffmeister> i cant even install it lol
[07:56] <Adpad> does anyone know how to get an existing windows installation working nicely in Virtualbox? :/
[07:56] <kindofabuzz> try what i said
[07:56] <Adpad> [sorry, I know I have accumulated lots of questions] ;)
[07:56] <Dr_willis> Adpad,  good luck with that :)
[07:56] <Lapinux> Jeffmeister: what happens when you try the live cd?
[07:56] <Jeffmeister> when i changed to nosplash
[07:56] <Jeffmeister> it just got stuck
[07:56] <Adpad> Dr_willis: lol, thanx ;)
[07:57] <Lapinux> blank screen?
[07:57] <Jeffmeister> when i use the live cd i choose normal or safe graphics
[07:57] <bazhang> let him sleep! ;]
[07:57] <Jeffmeister> and I start loading
[07:57] <Dr_willis> Adpad,  i keep my windows installs in a nice safe virtual hard drive file..
[07:57] <Jeffmeister> but it looks choppy
[07:57] <Adpad> Jeffmeister: if it's getting stuck, I used safe graphics and it started working
[07:57] <Jeffmeister> and then it starts beeping
[07:57] <brianlight> Apad I have not used an existing windows installation in Virtualbox but I have installed clean from a CD
[07:57] <Jeffmeister> and it goes black screen
[07:57] <Dr_willis> Adpad,  if you boot the actual install -  it might get confused about being put in a totally new machine. and then get confused again whenya boot it inside virtualbox..
[07:57] <Jeffmeister> safe graphics didnt work either
[07:58] <Jeffmeister> alternate cd didnt work either
[07:58] <Jeffmeister> neither did minimal cd that downloads for you
[07:58] <Adpad> Dr_willis: good idea, but I'm just concerned to move it all across!
[07:58] <Jeffmeister> and you choose installs
[07:58] <Lapinux> Jeffmeister: my problem was just the screen went blank during boot but would come back once at the login screen
[07:58] <Jeffmeister> what is all that i need just ubuntu desktop or what?
[07:58] <Adpad> Dr_willis: i've managed to get it booted and everything, just with problems
[07:58] <Jeffmeister> or do i need like MAIL servers
[07:58] <Jeffmeister> and all that crap
[07:58] <schwepps> how do i find out, from command line, what files a package installed?
[07:58] <Adpad> Jeffmeister - what graphics card are you using?  been reading about this the last 3 days
[07:58] <kindofabuzz> Jeffmeister: i just skimmed through this forum: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=580020  alot of different solutions
[07:58] <Jeffmeister> 8800GT
[07:59] <Adpad> there is a lot about these things on teh forums as kindofabuzz suggested
[07:59] <Jeffmeister> im gonna
[07:59] <Jeffmeister> go back at it
[07:59] <Jeffmeister> rofl
[07:59] <Adpad> there are some special boot commands too
[07:59] <kindofabuzz> try the nosplash first
[07:59] <Jeffmeister> like i said
[07:59] <Jeffmeister> nosplash
[07:59] <Jeffmeister> causes me to do nothing
[08:00] <kindofabuzz> oh, ok
[08:00] <Jeffmeister> it stays with a cursor at the top
[08:00] <Jeffmeister> just blinking
[08:00] <Lapinux> Jeffmeister: i would try loading the cd again and watch your cd or hd for activity, and try just taking splash off the end
[08:00] <Adpad> Dr_willis: i've managed to get it booted and everything, just with problems like: many random mouse clicks, insane slowness
[08:00] <kindofabuzz> well a blinking cursor is better than a black screen ! =)
[08:00] <Jeffmeister> no i mean
[08:00] <Jeffmeister> it didnt even load the loading
[08:00] <Rammy> That's quite optimistic.
[08:00] <Adpad> Jeffmeister: have you checked the other screens: ALT + F1 - 8
[08:00] <Jeffmeister> brb
[08:00] <kindofabuzz> i think you can hit ctrl-alt-f1 and actually see what's going on
[08:01] <brianlight> Apad sounds like your not giving your virtual machine any memory
[08:01] <Jeffmeister> gonna do some coding
[08:01] <bazhang> this is the optimism channel Rammy
[08:01] <Rammy> ;)
[08:01] <Jeffmeister> try to get this bitch installed
[08:01] <Adpad> brianlight:  - tried giving it almost up to 2 GB :(
[08:01] <brianlight> Is this a Vista windows install?
[08:01] <Adpad> XP :/
[08:02] <brianlight> Your best bet is a clean install from CD
[08:02] <Adpad> yea.. A clean install has worked nicely
[08:02] <Adpad> can you do a clean install on another HDD
[08:02] <Dr_willis> Adpad,  i would guess hardware driver confliuct and other issues...
[08:02] <cookie> hello
[08:02] <cookie> I have a problem with pidgin
[08:02] <bazhang> always had bad luck with vbox; vmware-server did it fine though
[08:02] <cookie> I can not recieve files
[08:03] <Adpad> bazhang: thanks for your patience: finally, Dr_willis: good idea, but I'm just battling to
[08:03] <Adpad> oops
[08:03] <Adpad> http://paste.stgraber.org/1916
[08:03] <brianlight> Adpad I use virtual box mainly for windows Audio editing apps
[08:03] <Adpad> better :)
[08:03] <cookie> I can send but I can not recieve
[08:03] <kindofabuzz> did jeffmeister leave?
[08:03] <bazhang> Adpad: thanks checking now
[08:03] <Adpad> thanks
[08:03] <Adpad> bazhang:  does VMWARE-SERVER have a seamless mode?
[08:03] <kindofabuzz> did anyone suggest to him to make sure the actaull cd doesn't have defects?
[08:03] <Lapinux> dont think so
[08:03] <Adpad> kindofabuzz: he tried the minimal install as well
[08:04] <Lapinux> and yes he left
[08:04] <cookie> hello
[08:04] <Adpad> I'm sure it's an NVIDIA issue again
[08:04] <Adpad> I've been battling with the same thing over the last few days
[08:04] <Lapinux> i think i had the same problems he did
[08:04] <bazhang> Adpad: vertrefresh seems insanely high
[08:04] <kindofabuzz> yeah
[08:04] <cookie> can somebody help me? why can I not recieve files through yahoo with pidginn
[08:04] <mix25> Hello, someone can help with my 5.1 audio. I can't get to work right. Now only is working like 2.1. I'm a newbie in linux. Thanks.
[08:04] <cookie> I can send but I can not recieve files
[08:04] <Adpad> bazhang: Yep - it's the default configuration that I've gone back to in order to get _any_ kde working... if I do nvidia installs, it's corrected...
[08:04] <Adpad> but doesn't work :/
[08:05] <Adpad> that's why it's the "vesa" driver
[08:05] <thelonecabbage> I"m having problems with networkmanager
[08:05] <brianlight> Adpad have you used ENVY
[08:05] <bazhang> Adpad: what about doing the sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg from the nvidia install?
[08:05] <Adpad> should I try do the install or the xorg-config and get back to you with an updated pastebin ?
[08:05] <thelonecabbage> my docs say that I should be able to right click it and get a VPN configuration option
[08:05] <Adpad> brianlight: I tried Envy, yes :/
[08:06] <thelonecabbage> but it only shows "Enable Neworking" and "about"
[08:06] <brianlight> Adpad do you have your kernel header files installed?
[08:06] <moDumass> ubuntu firefox extremely slow
[08:06] <Adpad> brianlight: how do I check that?
[08:06] <Adpad> bazhang: so basically uninstall Envy, nvidia-xconfig, then do a dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg ?
[08:06] <kindofabuzz> cookie: if you google it, looks like a known problem
[08:06] <bazhang> moDumass: what about removing and reinstalling it? tried that yet?
[08:07] <moDumass> bazhang indeed i have
[08:07] <kindofabuzz> cookie: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&hs=Z2M&sa=X&oi=spell&resnum=0&ct=result&cd=1&q=pidgin+can+send+but+not+receive+files+yahoo&spell=1
[08:07] <moDumass> removed 2.0.1.2 and installed 3.0
[08:07] <brianlight> s
[08:08] <bazhang> Adpad: uninstall the drivers and the envy and then try the dpkg command and choose a really low res
[08:08] <Adpad> cool, brb ;D
[08:08] <kindofabuzz> ooops that might not work, just google "pidgin can send but not recieve files yahoo
[08:09] <bazhang> moDumass: you installed firefox from the repos?
[08:09] <Jeffmeister> PCI: Failed to allocate mem error, what is that
[08:10] <Jeffmeister> i get that when im trying to install ubuntu
[08:10] <msx98> is it possible to change system language after installing?
[08:11] <Ibback> Hi all
[08:12] <Adpad> bazhang: I'm using the 'nv' drivers, and I just get a blue screen of rubbish if I do an xinit -- :2
[08:12] <Adpad> (with new drivers)
[08:12] <Adpad> erm
[08:12] <brianlight> msx98 you could do a sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a
[08:12] <Adpad> new settings for xorg
[08:12] <Adpad> I don't want to lose this support window
[08:12] <brianlight> but that asks you to reconfigure everything
[08:13] <brianlight> I'm not sure what package holds the system language right of the back
[08:13] <KalEl> 1) how can i find out who is connected to my computer through ssh? 2) how can i disconnect them?
[08:13] <Ibback> Hi all. Is it possible to link an existing window xp account to vmware inside ubuntu? or do i need to setup a window xp inside vmware. Does any1 know?
[08:13] <Dr_willis> KalEl,  try the 'who' command, and kill the pid of their shell.
[08:14] <juice_> anyone know what i can use to share mice and keyboards across different platforms?
[08:14] <Dr_willis> Ibback,  You mean an existing XP install on a 'real' hard drive and run it inside vmware?
[08:14] <KalEl> ok thanks!
[08:14] <Ibback> Dr_willis: Yes
[08:15] <artenius> KalEl: also look in /var/log/auth.log to see who's logging in
[08:15] <Dr_willis> Ibback,  i hear its doable.. and it can cause problems to the xp install. XP will basicially see that its been swaped to a new machine.. and reconfigure/reinstall drivers.. and it may trigger the activation.. THEN if you boot back to the HD.. it will do it all over again..
[08:16] <KalEl> artenius, ok great! thanks!
[08:16] <bazhang> all_generic_ide might help adding that to boot parameters Jeffmeister
[08:17] <bazhang> msx98 sure you change languages after installing; this is not vista ;]
[08:17] <Adpad> bazhang:  sorry, screen went crazy again, had to restart
[08:17] <Adpad> This just isn't working for me :((
[08:18] <bazhang> Adpad: try the vesa again and ininstall the non-free drivers as well and envy
[08:18] <bazhang> uninstall rather
[08:18] <Adpad> ok, I've uninstalled Envy
[08:19] <Adpad> what's the command for the non-free drivers? nvidia-xconfig ?
[08:19] <Adpad> btw, the screen is working again under vesa driver now
[08:19] <Ibback> Dr_willis: So, it is safer to just setup again inside vmware .right? BTW, i can fax from window xp itself but not in ubuntu, so can i still fax using xp virtual machine? I read from somewhere that xp virtual machines can only recorgnize devices that ubuntu only can
[08:19] <bazhang> okay Adpad that is good, now go into the restricted drivers manager and choose the nvidia drivers
[08:20] <Dr_willis> Ibback,  best to reinstall inside vmware..  as for hardware. it depends on the hardware
[08:20] <Adpad> bazhang: is there an equiv to the restricted drivers manager for KDE?
[08:20] <Dr_willis> Ibback,  there are fax tools for Ubuntu - but ive never used any
[08:20] <Adpad> (I'm using KDE community edition)
[08:20] <brianlight> adpad goto System----->Admin------->Hardware drivers and install the restricted divers ofr your Ubuntu installation
[08:20] <bazhang> Adpad: well I am no longer on gutsy so things have changed; but yes there is
[08:21] <todor> how to play mplayer movie with sub
[08:21] <[[thufir]]> I'm getting:  "Media change: please insert the disc labeled" when using apt-get to install a package.  I don't have such a disc, is there some setting which can be changed?
[08:21] <bazhang> todor right click on movie screen and choose subtitles does not work?
[08:21] <Dr_willis> todor,  when i use gmplayer, theres a menu item for 'show subtitles'
[08:21] <Adpad> bazhang: I can't find the Hardware drivers :( would it be in the KDE control center?
[08:21] <bazhang> thufir just go to software sources and disable cd as a source
[08:22] <artenius> [[thufir]]: you need to remove the CD repo from your repo list
[08:22] <Ibback> Dr_willis: Actually i had previously installed vmware and i try to fax out using window fax component but unfortunately it too did not detect my fax modem as like ubuntu.
[08:22] <todor> thanks
[08:22] <thelonecabbage> how come my networkmanager  (applet) (when right-clicked) has no VPN options?
[08:22] <artenius> [[thufir]]: if you're comfortable with the terminal, edit /etc/apt/sources.list and put a # before the CD line
[08:23] <spaceaviator> My gdmsetup cant find the theme files after I click add even when the file is right there!
[08:23] <bazhang> Adpad: more likely in the system admin section; forgot the kde name for that
[08:23] <senorpedro> hi folks
 indeed i did install firefox from the repos
[08:23] <[[thufir]]> artenius: yes, thanks, I was just looking at that as a solution.  seems odd to be requested for a disc, tho.
[08:23] <brianlight> Apad use Gome ;)
[08:23] <senorpedro> what is the difference between updatedb and trackerd? aren't both programs doing pretty much the same?
 im just wandering if my profile is all messed up
[08:23] <brianlight> Gnome
[08:23] <Ibback> Bye
[08:23] <bazhang> moDumass: and you removed the previous settings?
[08:24] <artenius> [[thufir]]: not if you installed from a disc though, right?
[08:24] <artenius> ;)
[08:24] <Adpad> SO my problems are probably related to KDE ?
[08:24] <bazhang> moDumass: aye, delete it
[08:24] <brianlight> No
 i didnt remove prev settings only because i dont know how
[08:24] <Slart> senorpedro: I think updatedb only searches filenames.. trackerd searches content of files.. and mail etc
[08:24] <bazhang> Adpad: no way; kde is fine
[08:24] <senorpedro> so what do i need updatedb for? because it runs every time i start my system
[08:25] <brianlight> you just need to install your Nvidia restricted drivers for your brand of ubuntu
[08:25] <todor> when I play movie with sub the sub is not read no font
[08:25] <bazhang> Adpad: dont listen to the gnome users ;] I'm on KDE and it rocks
 where?
[08:25] <Adpad> cool :)
[08:25] <brianlight> I was just stating my opinion about the gnome thing
[08:25] <bazhang> brianlight: as was I ;]
 like i uninstalled ff2.x and selected to install ff3.x, and now i have 3.x with all the same bookmarks and jaz as my 2.x
[08:26] <Adpad> hehhe
[08:26] <Adpad> brb, screen might crash again...
[08:26] <[[thufir]]> artenius: thanks, that looks to have fixed it.  but, I would hope that all packages get installed from the "internet" since those will be up to date.  the disc might be old, missing, etc.
[08:26] <bazhang> moDumass: check the proxy settings in firefox 3
[08:27] <moDumass> yeh im lookin into it as we speak
[08:27] <artenius> [[thufir]]: yes, it won't look for a CD anymore, just internet repos
 direct connection to the internet was selected
[08:28] <spaceaviator> My gdmsetup cant find the theme files after I click add even when the file is right there!
[08:28] <bazhang> moDumass: the only thing I can figure is the previous use of TOR; but since you removed it the speed should return to normal
 what else could be slowing down www access through firefox and konqueror but not opera
 yeh and tor would only slow stuff down when tor was on
[08:29] <bazhang> spaceaviator: what about drag and drop the tar.gz file?
[08:29] <spaceaviator> bazhang, that works
[08:29] <spaceaviator> but the add button doesn't
[08:29] <schwepps> how do i find out, from command line, what files a package installed?
[08:29] <cambazz> hello. is there no better player then amarok or banshee? I just want to play internet radio
[08:29] <spaceaviator> cambazz, streamtuner
[08:29] <bazhang> schwepps: the dependencies you mean? or something else
[08:29] <moDumass> cambaz, exaile
[08:30] <spaceaviator> bazhang, any ideas?
[08:30] <cambazz> hmm... let me try both
[08:30] <spaceaviator> cambazz, streamtuner uses xmms
[08:30] <bazhang> spaceaviator: um not really sure as I dont use gnome; but the drag and drop does work right? you can change themes successfully, correct?
[08:30] <kindofabuzz_> if i put a file in my NFS folder, is it actaully still on my computer or the server?
[08:31] <Eythan> cambazz> audacious
[08:31] <brianlight> Streamtuner uses what ever you tell it too
[08:31] <kindofabuzz_> if not, how can i "push" it?
[08:31] <spaceaviator> bazhang, yeah but I need to upload a remaster so I need everything to work
[08:31] <robokop> I have just installed ubuntu on my desktop pc, but now i'm not able to boot in windows anymore, i have set the correct menu entry in the /boot/grub/menu.lst, but it just hangs
[08:31] <schwepps> bazhang: no, like, if I installed, say tcpdump via apt-get, where is the tcpdump binary?
[08:31] <brianlight> you can choose your streaming audio player in Streamtuner
[08:32] <bazhang> schwepps: the apt cache archives?
[08:32] <Adpad> sorry, am back now
[08:32] <robokop> schwepps: apt-file show tcpdump
[08:33] <schwepps> robokop: thanks
[08:33] <Adpad> Can someone please talk to me about the Restricted Drivers manager in KDE?
[08:33] <Adpad> how do I get to it
[08:33] <schwepps> bazhang: so apt-cache?
[08:33] <bazhang> Adpad: it's there by default in gutsy; just need to search in the system admin menus for it
[08:33] <quax> robokop: old problem:  I suggest googling for having the grub-menu on a floppy-disk, then repair windows with the cd. Then you can fiddle it out without time-pressure
[08:34] <Adpad> ok I'm in System Settings
[08:34] <robokop> quax: no floppy drive in my system
[08:35] <quax> is it VISTA, or XP?
[08:35] <robokop> quax: XP
[08:35] <dabbill> I was just watching gkrellm cpu monitor, and it seems that my computer will only use 1 core at a time. its like if 1 core is at 89%, the other core wont go above 11%. but usually it will just run 1 or the other core at 100%.
[08:35] <brianlight> apad I would jsut do a sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new
[08:36] <warrendae> hi
[08:36] <warrendae> someone knows how to translate a gtk program in diff languages? (i'm programming a program)
[08:36] <Dr_willis> dabbill,  a lot of that depends on the apps running also. I see similer effect, and even under windows it seems i rarely max out both.
[08:36] <brianlight> of use the ubuntu restricted drivers manager to install Nvidia drivers
[08:36] <quax> XP is quite unfriendly and uncooperative with linux as regards boot and the mbr. I am not expert enough to talk you through. I suggest: rpeair the boot with windows cd for windows, and try repairing ubuntu thereafter...
[08:37] <brianlight> or^
[08:37] <dabbill> Dr_willis, what version of windows you running?
[08:37] <quax> (assuming xp is the OS you are working with until now)
[08:37] <[[thufir]]> the rjb package fails to install, it seems hung on the JAVA_HOME env variable:  http://www.pastebin.ca/955015  .  any suggestions with regards to JAVA_HOME?  I think I have it set correctly.
[08:37] <Dr_willis> dabbill,  Beasta  err Vista:)
[08:37] <robokop> quax: fixmbr works, but if i install grub afterwards it leaves me with linux only
[08:38] <brianlight> Apad the Ubuntu packages you need installed are linux-restricted-modules nvidia-glx nvidia-kernel-common
[08:38] <warrendae> someone knows how to translate a gtk program in diff languages? (i'm programming a program)
[08:39] <Max_demon2> hello
[08:39] <Adpad> bazhang: I don't have the ADVANCED tab in my system settings for some reason, could that be why I can't find the restricted drivers icons?
[08:39] <Max_demon2> i need help
[08:39] <dabbill> Dr_willis, thats weird, i always see my vista install maxing out both cores or balancing the load between the cores in vista.
[08:39] <bazhang> Adpad: this is gutsy correct?
[08:39] <dabbill> Dr_willis, like see them both running at 60%.
[08:39] <Max_demon2> i tried to install 8.04 via Wubi
[08:39] <Max_demon2> but when system restarts
[08:40] <Max_demon2> i see a wallpaper after loading
[08:40] <bazhang> #ubuntu+1 please Max_demon2
[08:40] <Max_demon2> and installation window
[08:40] <ToddEDM> anyone here use vmware?
[08:40] <Adpad> bazhang: Linux Mint (but it's based on 7.10 right?)
[08:40] <bazhang> ToddEDM: aye
[08:40] <UbunLin> Heh
[08:40] <UbunLin> Hardy room is dead
[08:41] <ToddEDM> i want to know if you can take files from the host , and get it to my windows guest
[08:41] <bazhang> Adpad: argh..Mint? that is not supported here; no wonder you are having problems
[08:41] <Adpad> oh :( sorry, I hadn't realised
[08:41] <artenius> Adpad: Mint charges money for support
[08:41] <Adpad> people recommended Mint to me as "the way to go" .. :(
[08:41] <bazhang> Adpad: back up and install ubuntu (the original!) and then come back ;]
[08:42] <bazhang> www.ubuntu.com Adpad ;]
[08:42] <Adpad> ok ;)
[08:42] <bazhang> or #linuxmint ;[
[08:43] <Adpad> pretty much no-one there
[08:43] <ToddEDM> bazhang:  can you get files from the host and put them onto the guest?
[08:43] <Adpad> and you guys have been so helpful
[08:43] <Adpad> bazhang: by changing to Ubuntu standard is there anything i'll be missing?
[08:43] <Adpad> is it harder to use?
[08:43] <brianlight> did I miss somthing Adpad your using mint?
[08:43] <dabbill> Dr_willis, there are no settings or any thing in Ubuntu to check for dual core CPU's?
[08:43] <J3KYLL> i need help setting up my monitor... i've tried researching everywhere!! i don't know how to fix this.. i have tried turning on the nvidia controller on my restricted drivers list and it says "...not enabled" i have an nvidia geforce6100 with a hpw2207 monitor with native resolution 1680x1050 ... please im getting frustraded and don't know what to do :(
[08:44] <bazhang> ToddEDM: you mean the host and guest os in vmware? I was spacing out there sorry ;]
[08:44] <tsukasa> hi guys, is there somewhere i can put a command that will be executed on system resume (from ram suspend) ?
[08:44] <ToddEDM> bazhang: , lol yeah the os's
[08:44] <bazhang> Adpad: yeah you'll be missing the total lack of support in Mint ;]
[08:44] <Adpad> brianlight - yes :/ I thought Mint was based entirely on Ubuntu and therefore 1 and the same
[08:44] <Adpad> lol bazhang ;) thanks for all your help
[08:44] <bazhang> Adpad: and we never sleep here ;]
[08:44] <Adpad> heheh
[08:45] <Adpad> okay, I will be back in a couple of hours
[08:45] <Adpad> pity, I got grub working and _everything_ ;)
[08:45] <artenius> Adpad: ubuntu is based on debian, and no, you'll probably find it a lot easier than Mint, especially when it comes to support.
[08:45] <bazhang> ToddEDM: sure you can do that; you mean shared folders like samba or just drag and drop?
[08:45] <Adpad> artenius: thanks
[08:45] <Dr_willis> dabbill,  if the kernel fines them it will use them. IF you are using the 386 kernel - i belive it will NOT use them. you need the -generic kernel
[08:46] <brianlight> Adpad go gnome dude ;) lulz
[08:46] <Adpad> lol
[08:46] <Dr_willis> dabbill,  at least thats how the  hardy release it working for me.  (which i am  beta testign right now)
[08:46] <tsukasa> anyone? looking for a place to drop some commands to be executed on system resume from ram suspend
[08:46] <bazhang> yeah try getting ubuntu support in #debian ;]
[08:46] <UbunLin> bazhang: You seem to be the most knowledgeable person here. Got time to field a question about Hardy?
[08:46] <ToddEDM> bazhang:  all i want to do is take some files i download(in linux) and get them onto windows (bec. they are windows only programs)
[08:46] <ToddEDM> its google earth pro
[08:46] <bazhang> UbunLin: wrong channel ;] and that would be Dr_willis
[08:46] <dabbill> Dr_willis, yea it sees the system as haveing 2 cores.
[08:46] <Adpad> bazhang: so it's mint's fault damnit!
[08:47] <UbunLin> bazhang: Yeah I've been asking for a bit in the other channel. No activity and so far no response on the forum. Quite annoying.
[08:47] <brianlight> UbunLin I'm currently on Hardy?
[08:47] <dabbill> Dr_willis, just tryin to make sure i am getting max performance out of my computer :)
[08:48] <Dr_willis> dabbill,  even when reencodeing videos.. i rarely seem to max out my 2 cpus.
[08:48] <Dr_willis> dabbill,  theres always other bottlenecks it seems.
[08:48] <Adpad> bazhang: if I get the Desktop install of Ubuntu, will it come with KDE or Gnome?
[08:48] <artenius> both
[08:48] <dabbill> Dr_willis, yea, just wish i could get my video card to work correctly now, so that i can game on this PC.
[08:48] <Adpad> kewl, so you choose?
[08:48] <artenius> go with gnome ;)
[08:48] <brianlight> Default is Gnome though
[08:49] <Gpalco> Hallo, People! Ubuntu is great! I have a question (maybe a silly one - you tell me) I read about a Microsoft Word vulnerability the other day, which can be used by hackers orviruses. It said it effects "applications which can open, edit Word documents are effected". Does it include Ubuntu + OpenOffice too ???
[08:49] <bazhang> Adpad: the gnome is ubuntu; you seem to like kde so that would be kubuntu; there is also xfce which is xubuntu; you can change once you have installed though so no worries ;]
[08:49] <artenius> Gpalco: windows viruses don't effect linux
[08:49] <Adpad> ok excellent
[08:50] <bazhang> Gpalco: no
[08:50] <J3KYLL> i need help setting up my monitor... i've tried researching everywhere!! i don't know how to fix this.. i have tried turning on the nvidia controller on my restricted drivers list and it says "...not enabled" i have an nvidia geforce6100 with a hpw2207 monitor with native resolution 1680x1050 ... please im getting frustraded and don't know what to do :(
[08:50] <Adpad> downloading the Ubuntu image..
[08:50] <Gpalco> artenius, but it is something about Word document type or something. if I got it correctly
[08:50] <bazhang> J3KYLL: could you pastebin your xorg.conf please?
[08:50] <Adpad> so you'll be able to help me change, right guys? :P
[08:51] <bazhang> Adpad: tis what we live for ;]
[08:51] <artenius> Gpalco: only in windows OS's
[08:51] <Adpad> :D legends
[08:51] <Adpad> I really hopet his sorts out my troubles
[08:51] <J3KYLL> bazhang: im really sorry, how do i do that?
[08:51] <Gpalco> artenius, GOOD! Thank you
[08:51] <Adpad> I've battled for 3 days, didn't realise that it was Mint because I just assumed it was inherrantly Ubuntu!
[08:51] <tsukasa> anyone? looking for a place to drop some commands to be executed on system resume from ram suspend
[08:51] <Dr_willis> Adpad,  i use the Linux Mint stuff for ages with very few problems. :)
[08:51] <Gpalco> I meen, Good for mt
[08:51] <Adpad> Noooooo
[08:51] <Adpad> :/
[08:52] <bazhang> J3KYLL: sudo apt-get install pastebinit; then cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | pastebinit and post the url it gives you here
[08:52] <J3KYLL> bazhang: i know what the xorg.conf is but whats pastebin?
[08:52] <Dr_willis> Adpad,  of course i dident see a lot that mint added that i couldent setup manually myself..
[08:52] <J3KYLL> ohh okay hold on
[08:52] <pedroc_> where can i find info about 8.04 ubuntu server edition like php, mysql version?
[08:52] <artenius> !pastebin | J3KYLL
[08:52] <ubotu> J3KYLL: 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)
[08:52] <brianlight> if your downloading a gusty image all you need to do is System---->Administration------>>Hardware Drivers
[08:53] <Adpad> Dr_willis: so you recommend too that I go through the trouble to change to Ubuntu
[08:53] <brianlight> that brings up the ubuntu restricted drivers manager
[08:53] <bazhang> pedroc_: you can message the bot: /msg ubotu info php hardy and that will give you pm from the bot
[08:53] <Dr_willis> Adpad,  learn the linux fundamentals and it proberly wont matter.. :) of course the next release of ubuntu is due out soon. Upgrading to it from a mint install will be..iffy...
[08:54] <Adpad> (because Mint is all installed but evidently giving me lots of trouble)
[08:54] <bazhang> haha
[08:54] <Adpad> yea
[08:54] <bazhang> no direct upgrade from Mint to Hardy?
[08:54] <Dr_willis> Adpad,  wahat troubles? you may have identical problems with ubuntu.
[08:54] <Adpad> Dr_willis: have been unable to get video drivers working for almost 3 days now!
[08:54] <Dr_willis> bazhang,  i never upgrade anyway.. but that might be pushing it a bit.. :)
[08:54] <bazhang> Dr_willis: haha
[08:55] <Dr_willis> Adpad,  I imagine  its depending on your card and video driver versions.. you may have identical issues with ubuntu
[08:55] <Dr_willis> Adpad,  you 'might' want to check out hardy if you are going to do a reinstall.
[08:55] <J3KYLL> bazhang: i did apt-get install pastebinit and got this "Reading package lists... Done
[08:55] <J3KYLL> Building dependency tree
[08:55] <J3KYLL> Reading state information... Done
[08:55] <J3KYLL> E: Couldn't find package pastebinit"
[08:55] <kamil> I have a problem to configure printer behind print server in Ubuntu - it works with Windows client
[08:55] <Adpad> but I can't get to the Restricted Drivers area in Mint
[08:55] <myky71> ciao
[08:55] <icesword> !info pastebinit
[08:55] <ubotu> pastebinit (source: pastebinit): command-line pastebin client. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.8.2-0ubuntu1 (gutsy), package size 7 kB, installed size 84 kB
[08:55] <myky71> hello
[08:56] <brianlight> There may not be one
[08:56] <Adpad> Dr_willis: I can't get to the Restricted Drivers area in Mint
[08:56] <Adpad> and that's apparently what I need to help sort out this issue
[08:56] <spaceaviator> we can have the same kernel as hardy if I normally update gutsy?
[08:58] <brianlight> I'm looking at Linux Mint website and it looks like the recomended way to install Nvidia drivers is ENVY
[08:59] <TopRamen>  hey guys, I'm having a hard time getting vrdp working with virtualbox on my Ubuntu 7.10 host
[08:59] <bazhang> J3KYLL: did you sudo with that apt-get?
[08:59] <TopRamen> when I try to rdesktop in, it looks like it connected successfully, opens a window, and then just closes
[08:59] <pedroc_>  /msg ubotu info php hardy
[08:59] <Adpad> brianlight: thanks
[08:59] <TopRamen> I'm using external authentication
[08:59] <J3KYLL> yeah
[08:59] <TopRamen> is there anything special that I need to do in pam.d or pam.conf under Ubuntu to get this working?
[09:00] <J3KYLL> bazhang: i did the exact command you gave me
[09:00] <bazhang> J3KYLL: this is gutsy?
[09:00] <J3KYLL> bazhang: 7.10 "gutsy"
[09:00] <Dr_willis> Adpad,  install/run the restricted-manager tool perhaps? i havent used mint in ages...
[09:01] <bazhang> J3KYLL: open up a terminal and type apt-cache search pastebinit
[09:01] <Dr_willis> Adpad,  envy has its own set of 'issues' to watch out for also  :)
[09:01] <bazhang> Adpad: something like mintconfig
[09:01] <J3KYLL> bazhang: that returned nothing
[09:02] <bazhang> see Adpad best to just get gutsy as we know that well here ;]
[09:02] <Adpad> yea
[09:02] <Adpad> for sure
[09:02] <atomic__> hello everybody, i am trying to accomplish this in the sudoers file...i want to use "runaspw" to specify a user whose password should be used with sudo (every escalation of privilege), but i am not sure about the syntax of the sudoers file, i've already screwed up the sudoers file once, had to fix it with a livecd, anyone with similar experience??
[09:03] <bazhang> J3KYLL: then you need to enable the universe repos (first four should do) in software sources then hit refresh or sudo apt-get update and then search again
[09:04] <J3KYLL> bazhang: im really sorry im a little slow but what is "enable the universe repos"?
[09:04] <J3KYLL> bazhang: nvmd, silly me lol found it hold on
[09:04] <bazhang> pedroc_: that should be php5 btw, and no space before the /msg
[09:05] <bazhang> ubotu thanks
[09:06] <ubotu> You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[09:06] <bazhang> ;]
[09:06] <Adpad> thanks for all the help guys!
[09:06] <bazhang> see you soon Adpad
[09:06] <Adpad> ciao bazhang, thanks again :)
[09:06] <bazhang> ;]
[09:07] <bazhang> J3KYLL: you got it now? did you update your sources first and then try installing again?

Bought a "multibutton" mouse I'm trying to get to work yesterday but I have one button I can't get to work. I'm thinking hardware failure but would like to confirm it. Is it possible via xev ?
[09:22] <moDumass> it only hits my linux box the xp machines get good speed and i get good speed with opera but not firefox or konqueror

[09:23] <bazhang> he said I went there, and there are very few people
[09:24] <timgws> I just wanted to come and spam my Sourceforge replacement site to you all, www.sharesource.org
[09:24] <bazhang> timgws: not here please
[09:24] <destined> modumas: have you tried increasing your FF cache?
[09:24] <destined> If that cache is low, it will do that same problem you described
[09:25] <bazhang> moDumass: that sounds like a good idea
[09:25] <sacamano> hi, is there a way to close a program after a certain amount of time? like sudo shutdown -h 1200
[09:25] <sacamano> only for a program
[09:25] <NIKA> ClUE
[09:25] <sacamano> like Mplayer
[09:25] <destined> sac: killall?
[09:25] <Bejron> Looked at "man killall" ?
[09:25] <sacamano> does that work for a specific program?
[09:25] <Dr_willis> sacamano,  get the pid.. make a script with  a delay and the kill command? :)
[09:25] <timgws> sacamano: sleep 5; killall mplayer
[09:25] <sacamano> no, i didnt
[09:26] <sacamano> ty
[09:26] <sacamano> ill check it out
[09:26] <Dr_willis> sounds a little extreme
[09:26] <timgws> too extreme? it's two damn commands :P
[09:26] <moDumass> im in the process of learning how to increase my cache
[09:26] <Dr_willis> why does one keed to kill the player after a set time?
[09:26] <NIKA> \
[09:26] <Dr_willis> we going to sleep watching anime again?

 FF Edit -> Prefs. Once that comes up, click on advanced, then network
[09:28] <destined> To check your Firefox cache size

[09:29] <J3KYLL> bazhang: no, looks like just ubuntu gutsy if i know what your talkin about
[09:30] <bazhang> J3KYLL: ah okay just wanted to be sure ;]
[09:30] <lesshaste> my normal dmesg says " Booting paravirtualized kernel on bare hardware"
[09:30] <lesshaste> is this normal

[09:33] <Gpalco> Dr_willis, =) thank you.
[09:33] <ubuntu> Can anybody help me to configure my ADSL modem?
[09:33] <destined> ubuntu: search for your hardware providers website via google.
[09:33] <tdoggette> How do I install .PCF fonts?
[09:33] <bazhang> ubuntu: is there a router betwixt it and the computer; or is this a direct connection
[09:34] <destined> There should be a heck of a lot of information.
[09:34] <bazhang> nah, google is not needed ;]
[09:34] <J3KYLL> bazhang: lol its goin a little faster (i switched it to the us server) i get stupid at 2 in the morning
[09:34] <nomopofomo> is anyone here kind enough to tell me where the configuration files for wu-ftpd are?
[09:34] <ubuntu> I have a USB ADSL MODEM. I have installed the appropriate firmware drivers for it
[09:34] <bazhang> !google

[09:35] <stiffler> is totem using gstreamer ?
[09:35] <saminthemiddle> hello peeps
[09:35] <bazhang> ubuntu: okay, and did you connect it to your computer?
[09:35] <[[thufir]]> if I install some stuff with ruby gems, then can I just uninstall ruby?  or does that create a problem?
[09:35] <swankier> where do cores get dumped?
[09:35] <saminthemiddle> stiffler, totem uses gstreamer unless you install totem-xine
[09:35] <ubuntu> yes
[09:35] <ubuntu> the LEDs seems ti be synchronized
[09:35] <ubuntu>  the LEDs seems to be synchronized
[09:35] <tsai_> anybody have lucky getting the sony eyetoy webcam working in ubuntu 7.10?
[09:35] <saminthemiddle> stiffler, which, by the way, is a good idea because gstreamer seems to play DVDs better
[09:36] <bazhang> ubuntu: and no need for the double entries ;]
[09:36] <stiffler> saminthemiddle, I have standard totem for ubuntu-desktop package, this totem using gstreamer yep?
[09:36] <ubuntu> :D
[09:36] <saminthemiddle> stiffler, unless you went out of your way to change it, yes :-)
[09:36] <stiffler> saminthemiddle, I wanna add amrnb plugins to play amr files by totem
[09:36] <ubuntu> it's not a double entry, i corrected my spelling
[09:36] <saminthemiddle> stiffler, I don't know what they are but let me look in apt for a package that might do that, one moment plz
[09:36] <ubuntu> that's all
[09:37] <bazhang> ubuntu: is this a static or a dnyamic connection?
[09:37] <ubuntu> dynamic
[09:37] <nomopofomo> why don't i see wu-ftpd in my list of processes in system monitor?
[09:37] <bazhang> ubuntu: can you open a terminal and type ifconfig
[09:37] <xameleon> hello
[09:38] <[[thufir]]> how do you know which version of ubuntu you have installed?  /etc/ubuntu-release?
[09:38] <bazhang> ubuntu: this is a wired connect right? with ethernet cable?
[09:38] <ubuntu> well ,...now i'm in Windows.. my PC has a dual boot system..but i pasted the lspci results
[09:38] <stiffler> saminthemiddle, I'm looking for amr plugins in repository ;/
[09:38] <ubuntu> goto this link:
[09:38] <bazhang> thufir lsb_release -a
[09:38] <stiffler> but I can't find it
[09:38] <ubuntu> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60834/
[09:39] <Dr_willis> nomopofomo, Some servers like that only spawn processes as needed
[09:39] <ubuntu> it may be helpful i think
[09:39] <nomopofomo> ahhhhhhhhhh, well then, would you happen to know where the config file is by any chance?
[09:39] <Everheart> Hi guys, is there anybody here who has experience with kernel panics after HDD problems?
[09:39] <sat7> hey guys, I hope someone can give me any help about CEDEGA 6.0. I know it's not a special ubuntu problem but I didn't find any help on the cedega IRC channel
[09:39] <bazhang> ubuntu does ifconfig show your ethernet card?
[09:39] <ubuntu> bazhang:Yes it's a wired connection
[09:40] <Dr_willis> sat7,  cedega has some extensive forums last i tried it..  the #wine channels maybe able to help some also.
[09:40] <mengzihan> why my virtualbox xp
[09:40] <saminthemiddle> stiffler, well, google brings rumors of a plug-in called gstamrnbenc that can do AMR files, but I can't find it in the repos
[09:40] <ubuntu> well, i can't remember
[09:40] <sat7> Yea, but I don't want ask in the forums. And I didn't find any help in the faqs
[09:40] <ubuntu> did u go to the link i gave
[09:40] <ubuntu> ?
[09:40] <mengzihan> why my virtualbox's windows xp can not see the ubuntu'samba
[09:41] <sat7> because the "continue" and "cancel" buttons don't exist
[09:41] <crovax> hi
[09:41] <bazhang> ubuntu you are not on that right now and you  want to configure it?
[09:41] <ubuntu> yes]
[09:41] <sat7> OMFG
[09:41] <Dr_willis> sat7,  did you search the forums for others with similer problems?    They dont exist where?
[09:41] <crovax> is there annybody who emulate windows from a physical partition?
[09:41] <jeremyreid> heya guys
[09:42] <ubuntu> i'll be back with ifconfig...just give me 10 minutes
[09:42] <bazhang> ubuntu well that will be difficult as you cannot do what people here suggest
[09:42] <Dr_willis> crovax,  vmware and virtualox can run windows from a real install on a hd.. but its not advised.
[09:42] <jeremyreid> how do I get world of warcraft to work on ubuntu without crashing (I've tryed wine and crossover, may have done it wrong)
[09:42] <Dr_willis> crovax,  wine can also run apps from a windows install.. (again not adviseable)
[09:42] <saminthemiddle> stiffler, where can I download an AMR file, maybe it will work on my computer?
[09:43] <Dr_willis> !appdb | jeremyreid    Check there.
[09:43] <ubotu> jeremyreid    Check there.: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org
[09:43] <stiffler> saminthemiddle, what distro do you have ?
[09:43] <saminthemiddle> stiffler, ubuntu, of course
[09:43] <bazhang> ubuntu and waiting 10 minutes between reboots from windows will tax even the most patient helpers here
[09:43] <saminthemiddle> stiffler, this IS #ubuntu
[09:43] <jeremyreid> k ty
[09:43] <tarelerulz> Is there a player that reads Matroska's tag system. I know a lot play the container format ,but I want to know if they support its tagging system
[09:43] <stiffler> saminthemiddle, well, I have ubuntu too
[09:44] <stiffler> maybe on hardy will be plugins for gst to play amr files ;)
[09:44] <saminthemiddle> stiffler, if you direct me to a place where I can download a file to test I can tell you if it works on my computer
[09:44] <bazhang> Ubuntu you still there? arg he left
[09:44] <saminthemiddle> stiffler, and I know what I did to my computer
[09:44] <jeremyreid> I have wow installed under wine but it opens up the launcher then the launcher closes what do I do?
[09:45] <Finnish> I try to run linux mint, but it freezes in "running local boot scripts (etc/rc.local"?
[09:45] <Dr_willis> jeremyreid,  try launching it from the terminal, so you can look for error messages.
[09:45] <bazhang> Finnish: mint? why not get the real deal? www.ubuntu.com
[09:45] <jeremyreid> ok how do I go about doing that (sorry im new to linux)
[09:45] <Dr_willis> Finnish,  its proberly freezing right after that.  since by default that script does nothing.
[09:46] <Dr_willis> jeremyreid,  wine .wine/somepath/to/where/the/executalbe/is/wow.exe
[09:46] <sat7> help
[09:46] <stiffler> saminthemiddle, do you have a mobile which can record videos ?

[09:48] <jeremyreid> it wont work in the terminal
[09:48] <jeremyreid> it says no such directory
[09:48] <bazhang> crovax: there is a trial yes
[09:48] <[[thufir]]> when I go to java.com it says that java isn't installed, but it is actually installed.  what's wrong with it?
[09:48] <MaximNIN> hello all
[09:48] <Dr_willis> jeremyreid,  cd to .wine/ and look and see where the wow is installed to.. give the right path to the executable.
[09:49] <jeremyreid> i did
[09:49] <crovax> it seems to not be in my repositories
[09:49] <jeremyreid> but not cd
[09:49] <msingh> whats the best program for turning a dvd into a compressed audio/video file?
[09:49] <Dr_willis> jeremyreid,  time to learn some shell basics. :)  you MUST give the right path.
[09:49] <jeremyreid> ye i no
[09:49] <stefg> !dvd | msingh
[09:49] <ubotu> msingh: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[09:49] <jeremyreid> I opened up the virtual drive and saw the path
[09:49] <bazhang> msingh: for ripping you mean?
[09:50] <msingh> bazhang, not just ripping, compressing it as well
[09:50] <Dr_willis> jeremyreid,  its pboerbly best to actually cd to where the executable is. so you dont need to give a full path also. saves hassles. with spaces in the path
[09:50] <tarelerulz>  msingh, k9copy is pretty good . In fact I use it and I know it works
[09:50] <Dr_willis> cd cd .wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/WorldOfWarcraft (or whatever its called)
[09:50] <Dr_willis> oops. one to many cds
[09:50] <jeremyreid> ohhh so i should'nt have spaces
[09:50]  * msingh apt-gets
[09:51] <msingh> tarelerulz, does it let you compress it as well?
[09:51] <wildschwein> can anyone advise how i can make my download speed faster on ktorrent? i'm using ubuntu dapper
[09:51] <tarelerulz> Yes, You can make .avi contrainers or you movie you copy . I have done that .
[09:51] <Dr_willis> jeremyreid,  this is when the TAB completion comes in handy. And yes Spaces can casue problems
[09:51] <msingh> tarelerulz, i dont mean to copy a dvd, but actually store a divx or whatever cop
[09:52] <MaximNIN> I just got Ubuntu 7.10 a week ago, have managed to get compiz fusion and video/sound working properly. This is my first time to use linux, where can I find a nice beginner guide to learn the terminal?
[09:52] <jeremyreid> could you just give me a script if i give u the path?
[09:52] <bakom> hello, I have a command question, how can I remove the resulted files of an "find" command?
[09:52] <Dr_willis> jeremyreid,  just cd to the proper place.. its not that hard..  cd '.wine/the pat/with spaces'
[09:52] <Dr_willis> jeremyreid,  note theuse of the ' quote
[09:52] <jeremyreid> i no but it says error
[09:52] <jeremyreid> ohhh u need quotes do ya
[09:52] <wildschwein> how do i forward ports?
[09:53] <tarelerulz> msingh:  I meant you can turn a dvd into an .avi file .  You can make an iso of the movie to which can speed up making an .avi
[09:53] <Dr_willis> jeremyreid,  or slashes like i showed earlier   cd .wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/whatever\ spaces\ need\ a\ slash
[09:53] <bazhang> www.portforward.com wildschwein
[09:53] <jeremyreid> ok nothings come up now
[09:54] <jeremyreid> not even my name
[09:54] <wildschwein> i've looked there but it all reads like gibberish bazhang
[09:54] <Dr_willis> jeremyreid. do a ls and pwd and see where you are at. You need 2 quotes...
[09:54] <J3KYLL> bazhang: its ALLL good friend :)
[09:54] <jeremyreid> lol cant i just try using that cedegra thing
[09:54] <saminthemiddle> stiffler, hey, are you still breathing?
[09:54] <jeremyreid> thats ment to work
[09:55] <Dr_willis> jeremyreid,  do whatever you want.. but if you want to see some error messages id say use the shell.. i dont use cedega. so cant help with it.
[09:55] <msingh> tarelerulz, awesome. thanks!
[09:55] <jeremyreid> ok u tryed crossover?
[09:55] <Dr_willis> jeremyreid,  and the wow game is one of the most played games under wine/cedega - its got to have 10000's of websites/threads/guides out there.
[09:55] <J3KYLL> bazhang : http://paste.stgraber.org/1923
[09:55] <Dr_willis> jeremyreid,   i just use 'wine'
[09:55] <jeremyreid> ok
[09:55] <Dr_willis> jeremyreid,  you dont need cedega or crosover to play wow
[09:55] <jeremyreid> well give me the thing u use to open it
[09:56] <jeremyreid> cos im sure its the same
[09:56] <wildschwein> what's the best bittorrent client for ubuntu??
[09:56] <Dr_willis> i would cd to where the wow executable is at, and  use     wine whatevertheheckitscalled.exe
[09:56] <jeremyreid> aint bittorrent illegal
[09:56] <wildschwein> (most user friendly especially, for a beginner)
[09:56] <Dr_willis> jeremyreid,  no really. :)
[09:56] <jeremyreid> ok
[09:56] <jeremyreid> k
[09:56] <Starnestommy> jeremyreid: no, but some of the stuff distributed with it is
[09:56] <jeremyreid> k
[09:56] <bazhang> J3KYLL: you need to install some drivers for that it seems; have you checked the restricted drivers manager
[09:56] <unop_> !best | wildschwein
[09:56] <ubotu> wildschwein: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, join #ubuntu-bots and ask there.
[09:57] <thisdyu> hey guys, just wondering if there is a better wireless networking thing i could use the current one dosent pick up networks if i move my laptop
[09:57] <thisdyu> err program
[09:57] <wildschwein> hh
[09:57] <wildschwein> im not trying to get a poll
[09:57] <bazhang> wildschwein: in dapper? not sure there
[09:57] <J3KYLL> bazhang: checking it right now :)
[09:57] <wildschwein> yep in dapper
[09:58] <bazhang> wildschwein: apart from errors in clients, torrent speeds etc is not really a #ubuntu topic
[09:58] <unop_> wildschwein, i think dapper already has bittorrent installed
[09:58] <ubuntu> hello?
[09:58] <jeremyreid> i keep getting this m8

[09:58] <thisdyu> ? ya know the little icon that turns up in the left hand of ur scrn
[09:58] <jeremyreid> wine: cannot find '/home/jeremy/.wine/drive_c/Program'
[09:59] <stefg> wildschwein: consider to go for hardy (when it's released). There's transmission installed by default, which might be what you want
[09:59] <ubuntu> i ran ifconfig
[09:59] <ubuntu> it shows my ethernet card
[09:59] <wildschwein> stefg do you have a link for the program you mean?
[09:59] <jeremyreid> helo??
[09:59] <ubuntu> and a device called lo
[09:59] <Dr_willis> jeremyreid,  you totally ignored the 'cd to the dir' part....
[09:59] <ubuntu> "lo"
[09:59] <foldart> jeremyreid: you\ need\ to\ escape\ the\ spaces\ with\ the\ \\ character
[09:59] <unop_> jeremyreid, you need to do this -- cd "/path/to/file with spaces"
[10:00] <unop_> foldart, sheesh
[10:00] <jeremyreid> ok ok
[10:00] <Dr_willis> jeremyreid,  cd '/home/jeremy/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/World of Warcraft'
[10:00] <Dr_willis> logical eh?
[10:00] <bazhang> ubuntu but what about the next command? do you need to reboot into ubuntu to do that?
[10:00] <foldart> unop_: teach by example ;)
[10:00] <unop_> foldart, thats a bad example, sorry :)
[10:00] <ubuntu> next commmand?.
[10:00] <foldart> hehe
[10:00] <thisdyu> neone have ne idea why my laptop dosent pick up new wireless network even if i know its there?
[10:00] <thisdyu> even after iv moved into range
[10:01] <Lamego> wildschwein, http://www.getdeb.net/app/Transmission
[10:01] <J3KYLL> bazhang: i went to restricted drivers and now its downloading a package for my card :-) after i change the screen settings is this the last of my worries!!?? :-D
[10:01] <jeremyreid> ok it worked but wow got an error as soon as i opened
[10:01] <unop_> jeremyreid, use the !pastebin to post the error in
[10:01] <jeremyreid> ok
[10:01] <stefg> wildschwein: google for 'transmission bittorrent' if you want info about the program. However software is installed differently in Linux/Ubuntu, so no 'download, click setup.exe'
[10:01] <wildschwein> ah. i cant get hardy. not a good enough pc for it
[10:01] <ubuntu> what is the next command u said? Anyway i'll need another reboot to do that..
[10:01] <bazhang> J3KYLL: well then will likely need to sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg followed by a reboot
[10:01] <stefg> wildschwein: what do you have?
[10:01] <anto> Heya guys, can someone help me setup dual screen desktops?
[10:02] <jeremyreid> unop_, its a wow error, it dnt say anythin in terminal should i still paste terminal one?
[10:02] <bazhang> J3KYLL: then we can edit your xorg.conf if that does not do it

[10:05] <s3phiroth> what's the best way of installing firefox 3 on gutsy ? are there any packages or should i go with the mozilla.com installer ?
[10:05] <thisdyu> cmon you cant tell me im the only one ever to expect ubuntu to be able to detect new wireless networks without having to restart the machine?? youve got to be kidding me
[10:06] <unop> s3phiroth, firefox is a package on gutsy
[10:06] <s3phiroth> unop: firefox 3
[10:06] <Starnestommy> thisdyu: are you sure that the network is broadcasting an essid?
[10:06] <unop> s3phiroth, my bad, you need the mozilla tarball
[10:06] <s3phiroth> oh
[10:06] <s3phiroth> wait
[10:07] <artenius> thisdyu: you shouldn't ever have to restart
[10:07] <s3phiroth> looks like there is an official package
[10:07] <Gpalco> People, is there a way to assign a symbol to a combination of keys on keyboard ? If that is the right way to define it... For axample: (CTRL + ") to result in (') so I woildn't have change keyboard layout all the time
[10:07] <saminthemiddle> hey, do any of you people know how to prevent gnome power manager (I think that's the culprit) from ever changing my screen brightness? I keep tweaking my brightness settings and it keeps tweaking them back every few minutes! it's maddening

[10:07] <jeremyreid> i put it in pastebin now what???
[10:08] <warrendae> hi
[10:08] <thisdyu> 100percent sure it is broadcasting an essid ill have say 3 networks and ill move my laptop into range of two more but only kwifimanager will actually pick them up but the standard wireless detector has no refresh

[10:08] <thisdyu> i dont like that idea
[10:08] <bazhang> success dito
[10:08] <warrendae> is there any gtk+ developer i ould ask a programming question?
[10:09] <J3KYLL> bazhang : finnished installing new nvidia drivers.. its asking for a reboot. should i try this before the command you gave me?
[10:09] <Starnestommy> thisdyu: does it show up when you do 'sudo iwlist scan'?
[10:09] <unop> warrendae, ask
[10:09] <bazhang> J3KYLL: reboot first ;]
[10:09] <warrendae> can you give me an example of this function : 	gtk_show_about_dialog
[10:09] <unop> Gpalco, this might help you - http://images.google.co.uk/images?complete=1&hl=en&q=gnome+character+map&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wi
[10:09] <warrendae> i can't find the good arguments :(
[10:09] <bazhang> jeremyreid: that is getting out of control; please dont flood the channel anymore
[10:10] <J3KYLL> bazhang : thanks alot , brb after reboot :) (cross your fingers!)
[10:10] <warrendae> unop : are you a gtk+ dev?
[10:10] <unop> warrendae, have you tried google code search?  http://www.google.com/codesearch?q=gtk_show_about_dialog&hl=en&btnG=Search+Code
[10:10] <thisdyu> yep no scan results
[10:10] <unop> warrendae, i don't use C tho, i use perl
[10:10] <thisdyu> and i know for a fact there are at least 5 networks
[10:11] <warrendae> thanks didn't know this google code engine ;)
[10:11] <warrendae> thank
[10:11] <warrendae> thanks*
[10:11] <thisdyu> but what really botheres me is once you're connected to a network there is no disconnect function
[10:11] <jeremyreid>  96
[10:11] <jeremyreid>  97
[10:11] <jeremyreid>  98
[10:11] <thisdyu> or refresh to check what other networks may have become available
[10:12] <thisdyu> so is there software that will i mean god damnit even windows has a disconnect option! AND A REFRESH ONE!
[10:12] <bazhang> language thisdyu
[10:12] <stefg> thisdyu: don't get angry about your own ignorance :-)
[10:13] <thisdyu> swt mate
[10:13] <bazhang> now now stefg
[10:13] <thisdyu> i find it slightly annoying that you beleave its my ignorance that made certain developers not include such a basic function
[10:13] <thisdyu> but thats upto you
[10:14] <ompaul> thisdyu, how about this - you fund someone to write it?
[10:14] <unop> thisdyu, here's your disconnect option (see enabled) http://www.michaellarabel.com/external/feisty-network1.jpg
[10:14] <stefg> thisdyu: err.... you just can't see it
[10:14] <thisdyu> ok and refresh
[10:14] <thisdyu> ok so let me get this straight
[10:14] <bazhang> thisdyu: linux is not windows; there are certain new ways you need to learn
[10:14] <unop> thisdyu, refresh is (disable, then enable)
[10:15] <thisdyu> iv gotta disable my wlan to disconnect from a network
[10:15] <unop> thisdyu, right
[10:15] <thisdyu> mate ive worked with unix since before you were born
[10:15] <Ayabara> how can I check what processes that are using my sound device?

[10:36] <vlt> Hello. I have two machines here connected to each other w/ network. On machine 1 I run dhcpd and tftpd and made /netboot from the (alternate) install CD available via PXE. Now machine 2 boots, loads ubuntu-installer/i386/linux and initrd.gz and starts the install process. But how can I make the contents of the install available for the installer? NFS? Set up a repo? Any idea?

[10:38] <Adpad> bazhang: So now, it's defaulted to Gnome (I don't mind at the moment since I'm fairly new).. Was mainly using KDE because of Amarok initially.  I tried to run the Restricted Driver Manager, but I ended up getting the black screen again
[10:38] <GCtoday> I have changed my nick several times
[10:38] <Seveas> GCtoday, it means you try to use an incorrect nickname
[10:38] <GCtoday> Okay
[10:38] <ubuntu> It shows "Basic Registers of Mii Phy xxxxx xxxxx xxxxx (some nos.)"
[10:39] <Seveas> GCtoday, nicknames can only contain letters, numbers and a few other characters

[10:45] <GCtoday> I can change the nick to anything at all and get the same response, why is this happening?
[10:45] <ubuntu> does that mean i have no way of getting connected to the internet?
[10:45] <erUSUL> swankier: you are worried becouse a exploit does not work on your system?
[10:46] <akaineko> how to install things in ubuntu ?
[10:46] <swankier> erUSUL... it's not an exploit, it's an example shellcode.  No, I'm not upset about it.  I'm curious what's different in ubuntu that keeps it from working
[10:46] <algyz> akaineko:  easy, sudo apt-get "package name"

[10:47] <erUSUL> ubuntu: use pppoe if that's what you use i windows
[10:47] <algyz> well, I think it's not because kde, something wrong with users maybe
[10:47] <unop_> algyz, sudo apt-get "package name"  wouldnt work -- your're missing the install keyword :)
[10:47] <vykmorod> I ASKED !!!!, how can I completely disable updates on FaistyFawn ????
[10:48] <algyz> Oops, made mistake :)
[10:48] <erUSUL> vykmorod: why would you want to do that?
[10:48] <akaineko> i downloaded a *.tar.bz2, opened it with a archiver. there are bunch of files in there... so what to do next ? how to run them ?
[10:48] <vykmorod> If no1 tells me, I'll just delete that danged waste of time virtual machine, and continue using windows only
[10:48] <bazhang> akaineko: what package?
[10:48] <swankier> vykmorod... see ya.
[10:49] <ubuntu> how can i use pppoe eventhough the pppoeconf utility does not recognize my ethernet card
[10:49] <ubuntu> ??

[10:50] <vykmorod> dw, I can handle widows, even with python's PyWin32, an I also don't update, I can protect myself on my own

[10:51] <erUSUL> vykmorod: just decline the offered updates and if the little orange icon bothers you disable update-manager
[10:52] <swankier> unop_... like where?
[10:52] <Lamego> swankier, your answer is a bit off topic, anyway you need to understand what shell is beeing called, there is a shell path on that hexa
[10:52] <unop_> swankier, chances are the bug that that exploits has been fixed and the code no longer works

[11:14] <ubotu> MAD_da_Great: 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. :-)
[11:14] <erUSUL> !wifi | MAD_da_Great
[11:14] <ubotu> MAD_da_Great: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[11:14] <bazhang> arquebus: possible but best to check repos first
[11:15] <MAD_da_Great> thank you .. will check that
[11:15] <arquebus> ok, thx bazhang, but do you know of any docs that tell how to do it?
[11:15] <killaz> Anyone of you have this installation problem??
[11:15] <nox-Hand> I am installing Hardy, but I'd like to make a backup of my Gutsy before upgrading. How would best make a backup of that partition?
[11:15] <bazhang> arquebus: you mean compile sources or something else?
[11:15] <killaz> I read alot of posts but no solution...
[11:15] <Finnish> ubotu: It does nothing, gives me a message : overwriting possibly-customized...
[11:15] <erUSUL> killaz: fd0 is the floppy disk afaik no needed to install
[11:16] <arquebus> yes, compile source or binarys
[11:16] <arquebus> to ubuntu
[11:16] <erUSUL> Finnish: yes it does create a new xorg.conf file to test it restart X
[11:16] <nox-Hand> killaz: fd0 is indeed just Floppy drive, not a problem
[11:16] <killaz> erUSUL: it show this error and then stops the installation..
[11:16] <killaz> so there is a problem..
[11:17] <arquebus> there is commericial software for linux, I dont imagine that would come as source
[11:17] <nox-Hand> !backup
[11:17] <ubotu> There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning
[11:17] <killaz> otherwise it wouldn't stop..... with stop I mean shows me a black screen..
[11:18] <bazhang> arquebus: you can get deb files or compile both are possible; the deb can be double-clicked and the compile requires you to install build-essential from the repos; the instructions usually come with the source file
[11:18] <crackheadjunky> erUSUL, i think that got it... thanks
[11:18] <tux97> hi
[11:18] <msingh> i  cant play dvds
[11:18] <saminthemiddle> hey, want to hear a laugh? I'm trying to tweak my power consumption and ACPI is currently the main cause for processor wakes!
[11:19] <Lamego> arquebus, comercial software is usually provided on the binary form, you just need to unpack and execute it
[11:19] <bazhang> got to go; be back later
[11:19] <killaz> how is it possible a bug like this can be left in the installation?
[11:20] <Finnish> erUSUL: And then?
[11:20] <arquebus> ok, thx bazhang, I thought that apt-get handled deb files for you, so that you dont have to fool with dependencys. And there is commerical software for linux, I dont think that would come as source or deb files
[11:20] <roddersg> anyone here fluent with nfs I need to know how to map the uid on the server to my uid on the client
[11:20] <Lamego> arquebus, apt handles repositories, you mau have standalone .deb files, those will not be managed by apt
[11:21] <Seveas> roddersg, there's no 'mapping', you must make sure they're the same
[11:21] <arquebus> ok, thx Lamego
[11:21] <roddersg> how do you make them the same?
[11:21] <crackheadjunky> next question, i have realtek high definition sound, why is it so quiet? I cant turn it up loud?
[11:21] <roddersg> 2 different systems, 2 different uids, is there a mount option?
[11:22] <Seveas> roddersg, no
[11:23] <crackheadjunky> can someone help me with alsa?
[11:24] <roddersg> I remember reading somewhere there was a static-map but that was for a redhat version
[11:24] <erUSUL> Finnish: i told yu to restart  and test the new X configuration. Crlt + Alt + backspace should do it
[11:24] <crackheadjunky> i have realtek sound, and i can hear sounds, but I cant turn it up loud like it should be able...
[11:25] <Finnish> erUSUL: Yeah, I did it
[11:25] <Finnish> It was no different
[11:25] <erUSUL> Finnish: and is the new conf the one you want?
[11:25] <Finnish> No
[11:25] <hspaans> roddersg: http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=linux+nfs4+uid+map <-- this is what you're looking for
[11:25] <Finnish> I can't see the conf
[11:25] <erUSUL> Finnish: what is exactly the probelm? resolution?
[11:25] <Finnish> Yeah
[11:26] <roddersg> hspaans: looking at this http://man.he.net/man5/exports
[11:26] <Finnish> And windows are white/sluggish
[11:26] <crackheadjunky> I will ask later, thanks guys
[11:26] <rinaldi_> erUSUL: omg thankyou for that recovery thing, saved my life. Now i just have to file through the thousands of unnamed files for my document. I'm finding things here from years ago I completely forgot about.

[11:27] <kamil> I have a problem with my printer configutarion (HP desket 5150 behind EDIMAX print server)
[11:27] <erUSUL> rinaldi_: glasd to be of help; good luck
[11:27] <Finnish> I'm on Kubuntu
[11:27] <Finnish> So where is that?
[11:28] <sinbox> how can I make a hidden file not a hidden folder ? (I can view it in nautilus when selecting "view hidden files and folders", but there is no reason why it should be hidden)
[11:29] <kamil> Does anybody know how to configure printers behind print server ?
[11:29] <erUSUL> Finnish: dunno i use gnome? maybe there is no equivalent... you can ask in #kubuntu
[11:30] <MenZa> sinbox: What folder/file is this?
[11:30] <balle> i'm having trouble transferring data to my cellfone, any help please?
[11:31] <jtravnick> there used to be a site that would ask you some questions to help you decied what distro would work best for you anybody know the add?
[11:31] <moonlight> hello
[11:32] <moonlight> how is possible to play .flac ? I can't play the .flac in movie player ..
[11:32] <MenZa> !offtopic | jtravnick
[11:32] <ubotu> jtravnick: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[11:32] <MenZa> Really, moonlight? I think FLAC should be supported out of the box.
[11:32] <balle> how do i access my phone via USB?
[11:32] <Adpad> How does one remove Gnome and install KDE ??
[11:32] <erUSUL> moonlight: flac is an audio format all audio players should play them
[11:33] <MenZa> Adpad: Installing KDE is easy: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop. I don't know exactly how you'd remove all of GNOME.
[11:33] <MenZa> erUSUL: Totem plays audio as well.
[11:33] <MenZa> (the movie player)
[11:33] <inqui> Adpad: removing gnome was a mess, while i tried it!
[11:33] <erUSUL> Adpad: the later installing kubuntu-desktop meta-package the former really hard and you have to do it yourself by hand
[11:33] <moonlight> erUSUL , MenZa: i have here an file with .flac extension , his size is 300Mb
[11:33] <erUSUL> MenZa: yep
[11:33] <sinbox> MenZa, it's a folder with audio files on a secondary drive (formatted ntfs) that came out of my old windows machine
[11:33] <Adpad> is it a problem to leave Gnome on and install KDE?
[11:33] <MenZa> sinbox: What's the name of the folder?
[11:34] <erUSUL> moonlight: double click on it totem should play it just fine
[11:34] <inqui> Adpad: worked for me
[11:34] <erUSUL> Adpad: no
[11:34] <MenZa> Adpad: Not at all.
[11:34] <Adpad> How does the system 'know' into which to boot? :D
[11:34] <MenZa> You choose on login.
[11:34] <erUSUL> Adpad: only wasted diskspace i guess
[11:34] <sinbox> MenZa: 01 - New This Week [Starting March 23rd 2008]  ^ ~
[11:34] <Adpad> cool
[11:34] <moonlight> erUSUL, totem say : could not play the file ..
[11:34] <inqui> Adpad:  sessionmanager
[11:34] <balle> how do i access my phone via USB?
[11:34] <moonlight> there is no plugin to handle this movie
[11:34] <Adpad> thanks :)
[11:35] <sinbox> MenZa, it was originally called: ~ ^ New This Week [Starting March 23rd 2008]  ^ ~
[11:35] <MenZa> sinbox: Odd. To my knowledge, only files/folders prefixed with "." should be hidden.
[11:35] <erUSUL> moonlight: what does «file filename» says? sometimes file extensions are wrong
[11:36] <moonlight> erUSUL,  i use movie player
[11:36] <moonlight> not totem..
[11:36] <moonlight> =]
[11:36] <moonlight> sorry
[11:36] <MenZa> moonlight: the movie player _is_ Totem.
[11:36] <toxicen> Hello. I have a little problem. Tryed to look on the web but havent fint any thing useful. im a total noob in ubuntu. Its just that my Nvidia drivers do not save when i restart my computer. I installed the driver manuly. Any idea's?
[11:36] <sinbox> MenZa, I also tried to change ownership as it is currently owned by root but it just won't have it, then again it's only a minor annoyance so I guess I'll have to ignore it for now
[11:36] <MenZa> toxicen: Why did you install the driver manually?
[11:37] <MenZa> sinbox: Sounds like it might be mounted strangely. What are your fstab flags (if any)?
[11:37] <algyz> moogmusic:  sudo apt-get install libflac++-dev libflac8
[11:37] <toxicen> Its Geforce 8600 and not supported by ubuntu
[11:37] <Lamego> toxicen, you should use the repositories driver, unless you have a very strong reason to do a manuall installation
[11:37] <MenZa> toxicen: That's supported by nvidia-glx-new.
[11:38] <toxicen> you sure ? since the only way i could get my card to work was to install it manual..
[11:38] <algyz> toxicen:  install not manually, but with apt-get, it's better
[11:38] <toxicen> 8600m GS
[11:38] <algyz> toxicen:  manual install not for total noobs ;)
[11:38] <MenZa> !info nvidia-glx-new | toxicen
[11:38] <ubotu> toxicen: nvidia-glx-new (source: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22 (2.6.22.4-14.10)): NVIDIA binary XFree86 4.x/X.Org 'new' driver. In component restricted, is optional. Version 100.14.19+2.6.22.4-14.10 (gutsy), package size 4896 kB, installed size 14848 kB
[11:38] <balle> how do i access my phone via USB?
[11:38] <erUSUL> MenZa: afaics 8xxx series are not supported by nvida-glx...
[11:38] <sinbox> MenZa, how do I see the fstab flags?  it is automounted at boot via ntfs3g
[11:38] <MenZa> sinbox: It's in /etc/fstab
[11:39] <toxicen> well maby not manually not really sure. But jsut follow all howto:
[11:39] <pushkal> no sound out here.. can someone help ?
[11:39] <inqui> got EN 8500 gt - tried also glx-new stuff ..-- the  EE massage is always, that the device is not correct initialized
[11:39] <algyz> inqui:  did you install manually before?
[11:39] <MenZa> toxicen: Try the Restricted Driver manager?
[11:39] <inqui> well could be ;D i tried 10 different ways
[11:40] <sinbox> menza: /dev/hdd2 /media/Store_1 ntfs-3g defaults,locale=en_GB.UTF-8 0 0
[11:40] <algyz> Yes, restricted are the best choice
[11:40] <toxicen> Well my card is there. But it unchecks it self every reboot
[11:40] <algyz> inqui:  if you tried manually before, then you should always install like this
[11:40] <toxicen> So i have to reinstall it
[11:40] <pushkal> i cant hear a thing over here guys.. someone please help !
[11:40] <inqui> restricted driver => that means i have to download stuff from Enviviqa?
[11:40] <algyz> inqui:  say thanks for card producers
[11:40] <Eugeneus> Hi all! Had anyone succeded in starting compiz with ATI X1300 ?
[11:41] <MenZa> inqui: Envi? What? No.
[11:41] <algyz> inqui:  sudo restricted-manager
[11:41] <lartza_> Hi! Is there any multiplayer game runt from telnet or MUD client that is ascii and not text-based?
[11:41] <inqui> envy tool? => no
[11:41] <sinbox> MenZa: /dev/hdd2 /media/Store_1 ntfs-3g defaults,locale=en_GB.UTF-8 0 0
[11:41] <inqui> envy did not work
[11:41] <toxicen> Anyhow MenZa. Is there any easy solution to it? Just like save it some how? =P
[11:41] <algyz> inqui:  did you install manually before? :)
[11:42] <MenZa> toxicen: I've not heard of it unticking itself, actually
[11:42] <inqui> i tried a package from envidia
[11:42] <Toma-> is there a way to import photos directly in evolution?
[11:42] <algyz> inqui:  then continue
[11:42] <Adpad> I'm really battling with this: unable to get the system to work with any video drivers other than vesa drivers.  I have a GeForce 6600GT.  I have tried apt-get install, xorg reconfigure, manually editing the sync modes, restricted drivers, and Envy.  When I start, I either get a blue screen or "No Signal" until I restore the xorg config with the vesa driver enabled..
[11:42] <lartza_> Hi! Is there any multiplayer game runt from telnet or MUD client that is ascii and not text-based?
[11:42] <clover2203> how to uninstall all  sound drivers ?? <i dont have sound>
[11:43] <algyz> Adpad:  don't configure manually
[11:43] <algyz> Adpad:  sudo nvidia-xconfig
[11:43] <Adpad> ok
[11:43] <MenZa> sinbox: try changing that to /dev/hdd2/ /media/Store_1 ntfs-3g user,rw,exec,sync,locale=en_GB.UTF-8 0 0
[11:43] <inqui> ... but pls explain beforehand what this "restricted driver " enabling does
[11:43] <Adpad> i have tried the nvidia-xconfig algyz :(
[11:43] <clover2203> *how to uninstall all  sound drivers ?? <i dont have sound>*
[11:43] <algyz> inqui:  it will download and install drivers
[11:43] <Pici> !sound > clover2203 (Please see the private messsage from ubotu)
[11:43] <hspaans> Toma-: for what reason? Evolution is a PIM not a photo manager
[11:44] <Toma-> hspaans? parents are constantly requesting me attach a photo from the camera so they can send it
[11:44] <algyz> Adpad:  maybe you should try #nvidia?
[11:44] <Adpad> is there a need/way for me to specify that I'm using a DVI monitor?
[11:44] <inqui> algyz: thx
[11:44] <Toma-> and hence, i have reached my limit of sane support
[11:44] <balle> do i have to "mount" external hard drives in order to access them?
[11:44] <Adpad> thanks, I will
[11:44] <hspaans> Toma-: buy them a Mac
[11:44] <erUSUL> balle: most of them mount automatically
[11:45] <Toma-> hspaans? youre trolling?
[11:45] <sinbox> MenZa, done, will this take effect after  reboot or straight away?
[11:45] <balle> erusul: mine doestn it appears
[11:46] <clover2203> pici: the alsa mixer is selected but not with my sound card .. but some nvidia card which i dont have .
[11:46] <hspaans> Toma-: what do you think? and you're at the end of sane support ;-)
[11:46] <ricanelite> i just downloaded and installed zsnes and when i try to open it
[11:46] <ricanelite> it opens and then closes right up
[11:46] <MenZa> sinbox: Unmount, then mount again.
[11:46] <Pici> clover2203: Could it be your onboard sound?
[11:47] <MenZa> Adpad: Shouldn't be necessary. I use two dvi screens :P
[11:47] <MenZa> brb.
[11:47] <Adpad> damnit :/
[11:47] <Adpad> nobody awake in #nvidia either
[11:48] <Adpad> I'm going to cry
[11:48] <Adpad> hehe
[11:48] <clover2203> pici: np.. i only have nvidia graphics card...
[11:48] <lartza_> Hi! Is there any multiplayer game runt from telnet or MUD client that is ascii and not text-based?
[11:48] <Adpad> anyone have an Nvidia GEFORCE 6600GT working in Ubuntu??
[11:49] <clover2203> pici: realtek drivers for my sound work on XP
[11:49] <algyz> Adpad:  did you try either sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx or nvidia-glx-new?
[11:50] <arquebus> anyone know where I enter my password for server login in xchat?
[11:50] <MenZa> arquebus: Surely under the "Server Password" field?
[11:50] <sinbox> MenZa, didn't change anything, but never mind I can live with it, thanks for trying
[11:50] <Adpad> algyz - I tried the nvidia-glx-new, yeah
[11:50] <Pici> clover2203: Make sure that your soundcard is selected from System>Preferences>Sound
[11:51] <MenZa> sinbox: well, you have read/write/execute access now, at least. :P
[11:51] <AldarHawk> Morning all.  I am having, once again WiFi problems.  I have a solid connection to my wireless router.  I have made my IP static and configured resolv.conf to work.  But I cannot hit anything outside. any thoughts?  I can hit the router and I have name servers set up that used to work before the wireless crash I experiance but not it is not working.
[11:51] <algyz> Adpad:  the easiest way is to use envy or restricted manager
[11:51] <MenZa> algyz: Do not recommend using envy, please.
[11:51] <MenZa> !envy | Adpad, algyz
[11:51] <ubotu> Adpad, algyz: envy is an unsupported tool to install newer versions of binary video drivers than provided by the official repositories. Use at your own risk, and remember that the latest version is not necessarily the "best". See « /msg ubotu binarydriver »
[11:51] <Adpad> algyz - Ive tried both of those
[11:51] <arquebus> MenZa, I cant find that field, the preferences only show a place to fill in my login name, not a server password
[11:51] <algyz> Adpad:  I think if you tried to install drivers manually, then you should continue doing this
[11:51] <Lamego> arquebus, there is a server password field on the server setup dialog
[11:52] <MenZa> What Lamego said, arquebus
[11:52] <clover2203> pici: cant i just uninstall all sound devices and reboot to c if ubuntu finds it
[11:52] <vallhalla81> !ssh
[11:52] <ubotu> SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[11:52] <arquebus> ok, thx MenZa, I will check for that
[11:52] <algyz> Adpad: are you long time with ubuntu?
[11:52] <Adpad> nope, a few days
[11:52] <Adpad> but a few days spent on this problem
[11:52] <Adpad> it's making me want to quit though!
[11:52] <Adpad> :(
[11:53] <arquebus> thx Lamego also
[11:53] <algyz> Adpad:  the best way I think is to reinstall, then in fresh install just do sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new
[11:53] <Pici> clover2203: Not really, Linux doesnt really work like that.  I suggest just asking some more in here, I'm not too great with troubleshooting sound issues, sorry :/
[11:53] <algyz> Adpad:  I would prefer doing like this
[11:53] <clover2203> pici: k.. thanx neways :)
[11:53] <algyz> Adpad:  afterwards sudo nvidia-xconfig
[11:53] <algyz> Adpad:  hope it will work
[11:54] <Adpad> algyz - yes, I did a clean install now.  All I've done so far is install nvidia-glx-new and nvidia-xconfig
[11:54] <Adpad> but still no luck
[11:54] <algyz> Adpad:  maybe first you downloaded drivers from nvidia?
[11:54] <lartza_> Hi! Is there any multiplayer game runt from telnet or MUD client that is ascii and not text-based?
[11:54] <Adpad> I was hoping to look at someone's xorg.conf
[11:54] <vallhalla81> sudo nvidia-settings have you tryed that?
[11:54] <algyz> Adpad:  after installing drivers you have to restart system
[11:54] <Adpad> yes, that just brings up the little GUI right?
[11:54] <Adpad> yes
[11:54] <rf232> i have trouble with mounting some filesystems
[11:55] <rf232> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/6033/ is the output of mount -a
[11:55] <chazco> Hi... anyone know of an easy way to make an updated Gusty CD... all the updates that are needed after an install use up my download allowances... Also, anyone know if this will be better in Hardy?
[11:55] <algyz> Adpad:  did you restart the computer?
[11:55] <vallhalla81> Adpad: it should open a window to edit settings for your card if it does you have the drivers
[11:56] <Adpad> algyz - afraid so.. I've also tried some other stuff like editing the SYNC frequencies manually
[11:56] <balle> do i have to "mount" external hard drives in order to access them? i got a phone that i wanna transfer some files to...
[11:56] <bartmon> !dmraid | bartmon
[11:56] <MenZa> chazco: There'll always be updates.
[11:56] <MenZa> balle: Yes, you will have to mount an external drive to access it.
[11:56] <chazco> MenZa - True, but there are so many and in the UK most ISPs limit downloads...
[11:56] <chazco> Even with the apt archive backed up it doesnt really help
[11:56] <balle> Menza: is that just like regular mounting or what? and how can i see which drive to mount?
[11:57] <algyz> Adpad:  pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf into www.pastebin.ca and show the link
[11:57] <Adpad> ok
[11:57] <MenZa> balle: Just like regular mounting, yes. What are you trying to mount?
[11:57] <rf232> I have some trouble mounting my harddrives can sb help me
[11:57] <vallhalla81> balle: places/computer and click the drive you want open
[11:57] <Adpad> this is one of the latest xorg.conf:  http://paste.stgraber.org/1925
[11:58] <vallhalla81> Adpad: sorry i mised what card do you have?
[11:58] <Adpad> GeForce 6600GT, thanks guys
[11:58] <vallhalla81> Adpad: 1 sec i will give you a config file

[11:59] <Pici> !paste | algyz
[11:59] <ubotu> algyz: 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)
[11:59] <Adpad> will try

[11:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sorry :) - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[11:59] <MenZa> algyz, Adpad: How about using displayconfig-gtk instead? There's no need to fiddle with the xorg.conf manually: gksu displayconfig-gtk
[12:00] <kestir> Pici: three lines?
[12:00] <Adpad> I get:  Warning: Cannot open display
[12:00] <MenZa> Yes, but you should get a window open

[12:04] <piquadrat> Hi! How can I completly reinstall mysql? I obviously butchered my configuration, the server refuses to start. I already tried apt-get remove --purge mysql-server-5.0, but it left over configuration files (and probabely other files). I don't want to remove mysql-common, since to many packages debend on it
[12:05] <Christoz> can anyone tell me what this command does? env | grep DISPLAY
[12:05] <MenZa> Christoz: Checks what display you're using.
[12:05] <MenZa> Christoz: More detailed, lists your environment variables, followed by grepping them (e.g. weeding everything else out) than DISPLAY.
[12:06] <vallhalla81> Adpad: if you need more help let me know
[12:06] <Adpad> thank you
[12:07] <Christoz> Menza DISPLAY=:0.0 what this result means?
[12:07] <MenZa> Christoz: It means you're using display 0.0
[12:07] <MenZa> e.g. you have one X server running (I believe)
[12:08] <Christoz> Menza what's the difference between 0.0 and 10.0 for example ...also display of desktop?

[12:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ip - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi

But I cannot hit anything outside. any thoughts?  I can hit the router and I have name servers set up that used to work before the wireless crash I experiance but not it is not working.
[12:14] <salah> Hello. I have made a little script for my computer to connect to wireless each time I start my computer: iwconfig eth1 essid "privat6DA3BA" (new line) iwconfig eth1 key 320612DA (new line) dhclient. And I also copied the file into /etc/init.d/ and /etc/rc5.d/ . The wifi still don't connect. Any ideas?

[12:15] <AldarHawk> Chexerz: what is the problem?
[12:15] <astro76_> salah: well the default runlevel in deb and ubuntu is 2, not 5

[12:16] <sat7> hey guys

[12:16] <ubotu> Chexerz: The Alternate CD is a classical text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD.  Look for the alternate checkbox on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal

[12:38] <schnootop> i was trying -R lol
[12:38] <jrib> schnootop: -R works too
[12:38] <jimqode> aetari1, most of the time it is about your ip, or your machine may be down for some reason. If you know how to forward a port in your modem (which i can't help because there are zillion models of them) then it should work.
[12:39] <schnootop> jrib, -R seemed to give me an error but i was using rmdir and not rm :\

[12:44] <EcoBlue> why am I running ubuntu
[12:44] <jimqode> aetari1, it may be. if you give me your ip i can try it from here.
[12:45] <geppo> i m sorry
[12:45] <neopsyche> is there any download manager that can limit the amount of speed a download takes on the network (must have GUI) ???
[12:45] <jrib> neopsyche: I don't know all the specs, that's why I said "try" :)
[12:45] <EcoBlue> aetari1: you got it easy, mine blocks everything but 80 and that is filtered by dansguardian
[12:45] <neopsyche> jrib, ok thanks
[12:46] <neopsyche> jrib, I was hoping someone would know of one that can do those things.
[12:46] <aetari1> jimqode, the dns is remotesys.org don't worry about 1253 people seeing it... they won't get in....:)
[12:46] <jrib> neopsyche: k
[12:46] <jimqode> aetari1, it is working
[12:46] <jimqode> aetari1, it must be your school firewall

[12:53] <sourcemaker> I have read that Kubuntu 8.04 Beta has been released... one of the new feature is to use an encrypted file system... Can I also encrypt only my home directory ? I think using a encrypted file system slows down the system.... right?
[12:54] <gauze_> sourcemaker: it will require additional overhead, sure
[12:54] <stefg> sourcemaker: you' re right, and running only /home encrypted is the reasonable route to take. There's not much secret about thesystem files on an opensource OS anyway

[12:55] <gauze_> heh wazm was here
[12:57] <gauze_> ok I gotta roll to work, thus violating the ask your question and wait a while rule
[12:57] <sourcemaker> stefg: ok... should I also encrypt /var and /tmp?
[12:59] <gauze_> sourcemaker: without knowing more about it (never looked at fs encryption stuff) why not /etc before /var?
[12:59] <sourcemaker> gauze_: why should I encrypt configuration files?
[13:00] <gauze_> sourcemaker: /etc/shadow isn't important?
[13:00] <sourcemaker> gauze_: hm... ok... sure
[13:00] <stefg> sourcemaker: encrypted /tmp would be bad from perfomace point of view ... rather use a tmpfs for /tmp (although /tmp will still be unencrypted if the box wakes up from suspend/hibernate) . /var in general doesnt need encryption. maybe put /var/log and other files to the encrypted partition and symlink them over.

[13:10] <CJS3141> If I have a program designed for KDE that I want to install, how do I know if it will work with gnome? I was under the impression that most KDE apps would work with Gnome, but is this true?
[13:11] <ichbinesderelch> CJS3141: well they should work with gnome, best way to know if it will work is try it :P but usally they should work
[13:11] <jrib> CJS3141: what program?
[13:12] <CJS3141> jrib: I'm trying to compile "kgrubeditor" and it complains about not having KDE4...
[13:12] <HardyOne> CJS3141, well then you need kde4
[13:13] <CJS3141> HardyOne:  I'm a newbie at this--can I have KDE4 installed alongside gnome? I'm on gutsy. Are there any issues?
[13:14] <Michaelsen> how do you enable optical digital jack in ubuntu?
[13:15] <HardyOne> CJS3141, I believe you will need to compile kde4 yourself. as far as issues I dont think there is any
[13:15] <Pici> !kde4
[13:15] <ubotu> KDE 4.0.2 is the latest major release of the K Desktop Environment. KDE 4.0.2 packages can be found at http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-4.0.2.php - More information can be found at http://www.kde.org/announcements/announce-4.0.2.php - Support in #kubuntu-kde4
[13:16] <fvwmnet> I think kde it too big
[13:17] <CJS3141> ubotu, hardyone, thanks. If I can install it without any issues, what is the reason to use Kubuntu then? Like I said, I'm new at this. :-)
[13:17] <HardyOne> CJS3141, Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE pre-installed
[13:18] <CJS3141> hardyone: yes, but I thought you had to use either gnome or kde, you couldn't use both. Is that totally wrong? Can I use both on the same system with no problems?
[13:19] <HardyOne> CJS3141, the main issue for me is that when installing kde along side gnome the menus get mixed and there is no easy way to remove the kde apps or the gnome apps from the system . requires you do it all by hand
[13:19] <HardyOne> CJS3141, nothing will break if that is what you mean
[13:20] <fvwmnet> apt-get
[13:20] <CJS3141> hardyone: ummmm... you can't uninstall using synaptic? What do you mean you have to do it by hand? Using apt-get?
[13:21] <HardyOne> CJS3141, yes you can use synaptic but there is no easy one command that takes care of it all
[13:21] <fvwmnet> aptitude
[13:22] <vallhalla81> hi all i need help configure my modem to forward port 22 to my local ip can any help please?
[13:23] <CJS3141> hardyone: so many of the programs I've come across are for KDE--why does Ubuntu use gnome? What is the advantage? Why wouldn't everyone just use kubuntu?
[13:24] <fvwmnet> CJS3141: hehe  fvwm .
[13:24] <ompaul> CJS3141, the personal choice of people is available
[13:24] <HardyOne> CJS3141, it is just personal prefference just so happened that you been comming accross kde apps but there is a gnome equivalent for every one. KDE has a more shinny look to it. more like windows IMHO
[13:25] <zainerkin_> I have closed vnc player but the sound is still running and I can not close it.
[13:25] <fvwmnet> Kde like xp. too slow
[13:25] <zainerkin_> how do you force applcations to close in ubuntu
[13:25] <fvwmnet> zainerkin_: ps -A | grep xxxxxxxxxxxx
[13:26] <HardyOne> zainerkin, I give them a stern look and they usualy close
[13:26] <zainerkin_> LOL
[13:26] <fvwmnet> kill it
[13:26] <ompaul> zainerkin_, xkill as a terminal program can help
[13:26] <gligorhoria> zainerkin_ kill 31    where 31 is the pid number
[13:26] <Vertelemming> zainerkin: System->Administration->System Monitor. It's a rough equivalent to Task Manager under Windows, and should allow you to kill the program.
[13:26] <CJS3141> Hardyone: the gnome equivalent to the program I'm using is called Ggrubeditor and has been discontinued... I'd rather use a program still being supported.
[13:27] <ubuntu-usr> my ubuntu 7.04 generates bad dns address for every new session
[13:27] <fvwmnet> CJS3141: vi is good
[13:27] <ubuntu-usr> what i should do?
[13:27] <zainerkin_> the thing is a was watching a movie with vnc player which I have closed down but the music is still running and I can not eject my cd
[13:27] <jimqode> ubuntu, what do you mean? /etc/resolv.conf is wrong?
[13:27] <zainerkin_> the sound is still playing.
[13:27] <jimqode> ubuntu-usr, , what do you mean? /etc/resolv.conf is wrong?
[13:27] <zainerkin_> its a dianish porno LOL
[13:27] <TrioTorus> vallhalla81: I presume you mean your router. Check out this page if you have one of those: http://portforward.com/routers.htm
[13:27] <ubuntu-usr> jimode: yes
[13:27] <HardyOne> CJS3141, then by all means please go ahead. I am not telling you to not use kde or kde apps, just trying to let you know what to expect :). I prefer gnome but I have used kde on different occasions
[13:28] <fvwmnet> zainerkin_: ps -A find the pid
[13:28] <sil3nt> nick?
[13:28] <zainerkin_> how do i find the pid
[13:28] <ubuntu-usr> it is written that these settings are set by network manager and i shouldn`t touch them
[13:28] <legend2440> zainerkin_ try eject in terminal
[13:28] <fvwmnet> ps -A | grep vnc
[13:28] <Vertelemming> Open a Terminal, and do "ps -A". It will give you a list of programs and their PIDs.
[13:29] <zainerkin_> its says in terminla that the device is busy
[13:29] <CJS3141> zainerkin: You could right click-on your top panel, click "add to panel" and then add "force quit" it will easily allow you to kill a window.
[13:29] <gligorhoria> zainerkin_ ps -A will show some info aboute that vnc
[13:29] <zainerkin_> by the sounds of it they are getting busy
[13:29] <zainerkin_> lol
[13:29] <Pici> !ohmy | zainerkin_
[13:29] <ubotu> zainerkin_: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly.
[13:29] <legend2440> zainerkin_ lol
[13:29] <ideal> does ubuntu 7.10 support microsoft wireless 2000 keyboard set? (Cause even windows hardly supports it, ha ha.)
[13:29] <zainerkin_> oh dear
[13:30] <fvwmnet> zainerkin_: man kill
[13:30] <Vertelemming> I think we've given him ... six different answers now?
[13:30] <Scunizi> zainerkin pidof <process> or top will also show process
[13:30] <Vertelemming> Never let it be said that Linux lacks freedom of choice.
[13:30] <ideal> sorry to be asking noob questions here..
[13:30] <fvwmnet> zainerkin_: I use mplayer it's easy
[13:31] <ubuntu-usr> jimqode: do you have some idea?
[13:31] <ideal> I used the add programs feature and chose gnome partition editor, but I can't find an icon for it
[13:31] <ideal> the other programs I added all got icons..
[13:31] <jimqode> ubuntu-usr, that dns address is given to your machine by the dhcp server
[13:31] <HardyOne> ideal, it is called gparted
[13:32] <vallhalla81> TrioTorus: thank you
[13:32] <HardyOne> or in terminal just type gparted and hit enter
[13:32] <zainerkin> how do I get the pid of the vnc player
[13:32] <ideal> HardyOne: where do I find it?
[13:32] <legend2440> ideal: check System>Administration>partition editor
[13:32] <jimqode> ubuntu-usr, for most home users dhcp server is the modem you use to connect to internet. you should configure your modem
[13:32] <ubuntu-usr> jimqode: correct, it is wrong for linux but good for windows on second machine
[13:32] <Sinnerman> ideal: system -> admin.
[13:32] <zainerkin> can I list all the process/applications running
[13:32] <ideal> legend2440: : oh yeah, thanks.. found it :)
[13:32] <Scunizi> ideal, gparted has to be run by root. so it assumes you know what you're doing.  open a terminal and type sudo gparted and it should open..
[13:32] <erUSUL> zainerkin: ps ax
[13:32] <Vertelemming> zainerkin: System->Administration->System Monitor.
[13:32] <Sinnerman> zainerkin: ps aux in a terminal.
[13:33] <jimqode> ubuntu-usr, maybe you are using static dns configurayion on windows machine?
[13:33] <ubuntu-usr> jimqode: i`d like to set open dns and rest of settings i want to have from router
[13:33] <ubuntu-usr> jimqode: i will chech that on my router
[13:33] <fvwmnet> ubuntu-usr: did you use dhcp?
[13:33] <ubuntu-usr> jimqode: yes
[13:34] <zainerkin> wxvlc was the process which I have stopped now. thanks
[13:34] <ideal> ok so.. I have ubuntu installed on hda.. then hdb isn't partitioned.. what do I do in this gparted to get the hdb up and running? I mean, every time I boot, so I don't have to mount it each time
[13:34] <erUSUL> Scunizi: ideal "gksudo gparted" sudo is unsafe for graphic apps
[13:34] <fvwmnet> ideal: edit /etc/fstab
[13:34] <ubuntu-usr> fvwmnet: yes, i`m currently use rhem but without dnses
[13:35] <fvwmnet> ideal: man fstab
[13:35] <fvwmnet> ubuntu-usr: dhclient
[13:35] <Scunizi> ideal, check out fvwmnet post.. you need to add a mount line to fstab
[13:35] <ideal> should I just partition the whole hdb as one partition? It's an old 40 gig drive so it's not very big
[13:35] <ubuntu-usr> fvwmnet: The Gateway acts as DHCP Server is enabled
[13:35] <Scunizi> ideal, I would.. format with ext3
[13:36] <Hatl> hi! is it possible to install a minimal xserver with about 50MB?
[13:36] <ideal> Scunizi: ok
[13:36] <ompaul> !minimal | Hatl
[13:36] <ubotu> Hatl: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[13:36] <Gary_inNYC> is there a tool to see the degree of file fragmentation on an ext3 filesystem?
[13:36] <fvwmnet> ubuntu-usr: run dhclient -> he set ip and dns
[13:36] <erUSUL> Gary_inNYC: fsck prints that when it finshes
[13:36] <ompaul> Gary_inNYC, the function of the file system is to prevent that from happening this is not MS
[13:37] <ideal> Scunizi: do I have to leave any free space? cause I thought it said something about that in a guide I found
[13:37] <Scunizi> ideal, are you just using this drive as a secondary data drive? or are you going to use it for something else?
[13:37] <legend2440> !defrag
[13:37] <ubotu> The default Ubuntu filesystem (ext3) is engineered to avoid fragmentation issues in most cases, see http://linkpot.net/behead/ for a simple example on how it achieves this. A package "defrag" is available in !Universe, however its use is not safe, and is generally not needed.
[13:38] <Gary_inNYC> fsck prints non-contiguous, not fragmentation.  also, that percentage happens to be growing for me on my home partition.  How would I know if fragmentation is not occurring if there are no tests for it?
[13:38] <ubuntu-usr> fvwmnet:  it doesn`t slove my peoblem. my web browser now can`t work
[13:38] <ideal> Scunizi: I'm just going to use it for like storing mp3s and stuff if I download any torrents
[13:39] <Scunizi> ideal, format the entire thing.. or whatever the max  is  allowed by gparted
[13:39] <Gary_inNYC> like for instance, I have 11% non-contiguous for filesystem, which begs to question, what percentage (if any) is fragmented?
[13:39] <fvwmnet> ping you gateway is ok?
[13:39] <Lamego> Gary_inNYC, fragmentation does not have a major performance impact on linux filesystems
[13:39] <Pici> !defrag | Gary_inNYC
[13:39] <ubotu> Gary_inNYC: The default Ubuntu filesystem (ext3) is engineered to avoid fragmentation issues in most cases, see http://linkpot.net/behead/ for a simple example on how it achieves this. A package "defrag" is available in !Universe, however its use is not safe, and is generally not needed.
[13:40] <Gary_inNYC> kk
[13:40] <fvwmnet> Gary_inNYC: ext not fat.
[13:40] <Odd-rationale> Gary_inNYC: fragmentation is only an issue if your partition is mor than 90% full
[13:40] <Gary_inNYC> this info is concurrent with what i've read so far.  I'm assuming I shouldn't worry about it, but I'm keeping an eye on it.
[13:40] <ompaul> Gary_inNYC, back it all up and reinstall it if you think you need to deal with it .. but your call
[13:40] <ideal> Scunizi: ok, so I did that, and it's like creating the ext3 filesystem now.. but, if I mount this to the filesystem later.. will it show up as a separate disk or will it like just be a directory? I mean, so one can tell the free space on it etc..
[13:41] <ubuntu-usr> fvwmnet: yes
[13:41] <fvwmnet> ping www.google.com ok?
[13:41] <fvwmnet> ubuntu-usr: can get ip address?
[13:41] <ubuntu-usr> fvwmnet: nothing appears
[13:42] <Scunizi> ideal, you need to create a file in /media to mount the drive to.  Say.. sudo mkdir /media/hdb1
[13:42] <ubuntu-usr> fvwmnet: ping: unknown host google.com
[13:42] <fvwmnet> vi /etc/resolv.conf
[13:42] <fvwmnet> add you nameserver xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
[13:42] <mysticalone> I was following the instructions ( http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Gutsy_Installation_Guide#Method_2:_Install_the_Catalyst_8.3_Driver_Manually ) there and removed everything to do with fglrx which I think is the problem and now I've rebooted and fglrxinfo says mesa and getting several errors.
[13:43] <ideal> Scunizi: ok, so will that create "hdb1" in the media folder?
[13:43] <ubuntu-usr> fvwmnet: but after every restart i loose it. yhat`s my point
[13:43] <ideal> Scunizi: man, I can't wait to be more familiar with this, so I don't have to spend so much time on everything, LOL
[13:43] <Scunizi> ideal, then you need to add a line to fstab so the drive will mount on boot.  blkid will discover the uuid of the drive. type gksudo gedit /etc/fstab and you may be able to copy one of the other drive lines then modify it for the correct uuid
[13:43] <mrspinx>   I'm looking for the correct kernel image for a smp i386 xeon box. does anyone no the correct package?
[13:43] <mrspinx> These are packages for amd im looking for the intel equvalent.
[13:43] <mrspinx> -linux-image-2.6.12-9-k7-smp
[13:43] <mrspinx> -linux-image-k7-smp
[13:43] <mrspinx> -linux-restricted-modules-2.6.12-k7-smp
[13:43] <FloodBot2> mrspinx: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:43] <mrspinx> -linux-restricted-modules-k7-smp
[13:44] <Lamego> mrspinx, Gutsy ?
[13:44] <fvwmnet> ubuntu-usr: you can use static ip
[13:44] <ompaul> mrspinx, please don't spam the channel with more than two lines .. gutsy chooses the right kernel for your boxes hardware
[13:44] <ubuntu-usr> fvwmnet: besides there is written that i shouldn`t touch this file because network manager generates it
[13:44] <ubuntu-usr> fvwmnet: yes
[13:45] <Pici> mrspinx: the generic kernel image supports smp and i386 fine.
[13:45] <Scunizi> ideal, yes it will create hdb1.. remember most everything in linux is a "file" or text file.. even the directory of the new drive.. it becomes a file called /media/hdb1
[13:45] <Lamego> you should use the -generic-, the specific arch kernels are obsolete
[13:45] <mrspinx> Lamego  Yes 7.10
[13:45] <ideal> Scunizi: ok, well I'm not sure I totally understand you there, what's an uuid? :)
[13:45] <ubuntu-usr> fvwmnet: sorry actually no
[13:45] <fvwmnet> ubuntu-usr: root can do this.
[13:46] <ompaul> !supportroot
[13:46] <ubotu> We don't support a root password so don't suggest one unless you are going to be here 24/7 to help someone who has problems as a result of having one, many thanks ;-)
[13:46] <Scunizi> ideal, when you open fstab for editing you'll see these long numbers like serial numbers associated with different partitions.  That is the uuid. It's a way of identifing a partition or drive
[13:46] <DimitrisZ> hi guys. i have an athlon x2 64bit processor. what i would like to ask is this: 32bit os OR 64bit os???
[13:46] <ubuntu-usr> fvwmnet: ok then i should edit resolv.cof
[13:46] <seamus_ie> hey all, just wondering has anyone gotten the patched version of the bcm43xx wifi driver to work. i can't get it to compile properly, it's driving me mad
[13:46] <Lamego> DimitrisZ, you can install both, it's your choice
[13:46] <DimitrisZ> what would be better though???
[13:46] <ompaul> !wireless | seamus_ie (this works if you follow the links)
[13:46] <ubuntu-usr> fvwmnet: sorry resolve.conf
[13:46] <ubotu> seamus_ie (this works if you follow the links): Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[13:46] <mrspinx> ompaul  wont happen again.   I have a two processor computer. Ubuntu thinks its a four processor box
[13:47] <seamus_ie> DimitrisZ: i have the same and initially went for 64bit, now on 32bit and machine is working much better and actually seems faster
[13:47] <reikalusikka> I upgradet to 8.04 but now x doesn't work properly
[13:47] <ompaul> mrspinx, it would you got dual core procs I guess
[13:47] <fvwmnet> fvwmnet: nameserver ???.???.???.???
[13:47] <Pici> !hardy | reikalusikka
[13:47] <ompaul> !hardy | reikalusikka
[13:47] <ubotu> reikalusikka: 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
[13:47] <reikalusikka> ty
[13:47] <ubuntu-usr> fvwmnet: 192.168.2.1
[13:47] <ideal> Scunizi: oh yeah, fdisk -l will show that, right?
[13:47] <ubuntu-usr> fvwmnet: this is my router`s addr
[13:47] <reikalusikka> so should I degrade it back t 7.10? is that even possible?
[13:47] <mrspinx> This is an older computer both single cores
[13:47] <Scunizi> reikalusikka, help is available in #ubuntu+1
[13:47] <DimitrisZ> better with 32bit huh?
[13:47] <reikalusikka> ok
[13:47] <seamus_ie> ompaul: yea thanks, i have followed all the steps. the problem i have is with a version of the driver patched for injection
[13:48] <Scunizi> ideal, maybe.. I've never used it that way.
[13:48] <Lamego> reikalusikka, you were not supposed to use hardy at this time, unless you want to beta test it
[13:48] <fvwmnet> ubuntu-usr: sometime add this ok.
[13:48] <reikalusikka> :D
[13:48] <seamus_ie> DimitrisZ: yea i would say so, a lot less headaches!
[13:48] <reikalusikka> Lamego: ok
[13:48] <DimitrisZ> but drivers are also available for x64 right?
[13:49] <Lamego> DimitrisZ, yes
[13:49] <Scunizi> reikalusikka, you should be ok.. It's pretty much done.  go to /join #ubuntu+1 for additional help..
[13:49] <ubuntu-usr> fvwmnet: if i put there opendns addresses it willbe all right (opendns.com)
[13:49] <ubuntufreak> I have a problem with sound in my compaq v3000 using Ubuntu 7.10
[13:49] <jimqode> DimitrisZ, i don't have any problems with 64bit
[13:49] <seamus_ie> DimitrisZ: oh yea definatly, the main problems with 64bit is with things like flash, java and random alpha or beta level software
[13:50] <legend2440> ideal: put this in /etc/fstab file but substitute your uuid number UUID=232da3f4-7f84-455f-a8bf-56964154ef0e	/media/hdb1	ext3	defaults,noatime	     0 2
[13:50] <ubuntu-usr> fvwmnet: until i will restart computer again
[13:50] <DimitrisZ> doesn't gnash solve flash problems in x64?
[13:50] <erUSUL> DimitrisZ: i use flashplugin-nonfree on 64 bits and it works mostly
[13:50] <Lap_Top> i have tv tuner which got Philips SAA7130HL chip set any one can help me in installation
[13:51] <erUSUL> DimitrisZ: gnash is not quit ready yet
[13:51] <fvwmnet> you can add -> "echo xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx >> /etc/resolv.conf" in you rc.local
[13:51] <DimitrisZ> hmmm, but you can install a 32bit firefox for flash support can;t you?/
[13:51] <fvwmnet> if you like
[13:51] <Scunizi> legend2440, thanks for that.. I'm on a win lappy and cant reference my ubuntu sys for a line referance like what you gave ideal
[13:51] <Lap_Top> i have tv tuner which got Philips SAA7130HL chip set any one can help me in installation through ssh
[13:51] <seamus_ie> DimitrisZ: I also had flash working in FF in 64bit but had no sound and it used to crash(flash) whenever i scrolled over a flash app
[13:51] <legend2440> Scunizi:  ok no problem
[13:52] <erUSUL> DimitrisZ: as i said if you install flashplugin-nonfree you get flash through nspluginwrapper
[13:52] <ubuntu-usr> fvwmnet: what means that xxxxx??
[13:52] <Lamego> I have been using flash on 64bits without problems

[13:52] <CJS3141> hardyone (or anyone else): if I want to install KDE4 using synaptic, what is the name of the package? They have "kde4" listed but it is only 3 KB. Is that the right one, but is actually much larger in size because it also installs a bunch of other dependent libraries/programs/etc?
[13:53] <seamus_ie> DimitrisZ: yea you can, i never went down that route myself, changing to 32bit fixed some other issues i was having too which is why i changed
[13:53] <DimitrisZ> ok one last thing. do the new ati drivers work with ati hd2600 on ubuntu?

[14:12] <fvwmnet> Pici: ?
[14:12] <Lamego> you dont need the full path, ls is enough
[14:12] <seamus_ie> DeadLy_sp:  yea cause ls is usually aliased to 'ls -lh --color=auto'
[14:12] <Pici> fvwmnet: You didn't need to keep repeating the echo nameserver thing.

[14:13] <fvwmnet> Pici: sorry
[14:13] <Pici> fnd: Probably not without lots of headaches.  I suggest waiting until Hardy, which is due in a little less than a month.
[14:13] <bartmon> sinbox: try alsamixer
[14:13] <Templer> i tried google and ubuntu forums
[14:14] <Templer> anyone please
[14:14] <fnd> Pici: I guess you're right - thanks
[14:14] <Lamego> !anyone | Templer
[14:14] <ubotu> Templer: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[14:14] <DeadLy_sp> seamus_ie, now, how can i get the result and put into a $var?
[14:14] <Templer> can anyone help me I get this error when i use the update manger "E: ubuntu-docs: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 139"
[14:14] <Templer> thats what im getting
[14:14] <Lamego> DeadLy_sp, you really should start by reading a basic shell scripting manual
[14:15] <sinbox> bartmon, I meant seeing a visualisation of the levels like a vu-meter
[14:15] <DeadLy_sp> seamus_ie, i need take the result of zenity list when push ok....
[14:15] <seamus_ie> DeadLy_sp: ZIPFILELIST is the variable. read man bash
[14:15] <DeadLy_sp> Lamego, yes, im very noob, but i've interess
[14:15] <fnd> Templer: have you tried "sudo apt-get update" from the command line (terminal)?
[14:15] <Lamego> DeadLy_sp, so start by reading a manual or tutorial
[14:15] <seamus_ie> well i run kde so know little about the exact command line args to zenity, try man zenity
[14:15] <DeadLy_sp> sorry seamus_ie, thanks good boy
[14:15] <Templer> no was using the ubuntu update manager thats all
[14:15] <DeadLy_sp> Lamego, yes, sorry
[14:15] <Funky_> Hey guys I installed ubuntu 8.04 beta using the Wubi or whatever it's called and it didn't detect my partitions correctly. so in order to boot i need to manually change the partition (hda(0,0)) each time. whats the best way to change this permanently?
[14:15] <Lamego> Templer, have you tried to remove the ubuntu-docs package ?
[14:16] <Lamego> !hardy > Funky_
[14:16] <Templer> nope
[14:16] <Templer> should i
[14:16] <Lamego> Templer, do it, and reinstall it after
[14:16] <Lamego> yes, something was broken during the install
[14:16] <Templer> cheers will do
[14:16] <seamus_ie> Funky_: booting into linux? using grub? /boot/grub/menu.lst
[14:16] <MM2> Funky_: #ubuntu+1 :)
[14:16] <Funky_> just got the message :)
[14:16] <Funky_> thanks

[14:17] <DeadLy_sp> fi
[14:17] <DeadLy_sp> :)
[14:17] <MM2> I have this windowspartition with has some filenames with UTF-8 characters (I think: ä) and I don't see them on ubuntus filemanager noin terminal. How I can access them?
[14:17] <Lamego> DeadLy_sp, that will not work, please follow my advice
[14:18] <DeadLy_sp> ==
[14:19] <seamus_ie> DeadLy_sp: stop guessing. man bash
[14:19] <ubuntu-user> fvwmnet: it not works like i wold like
[14:20] <Pici> DeadLy_sp: This is a bit out of the scope of this channel, try looking for help in #bash and reading http://tldp.org/LDP/abs/html/ , both are great sources of information on shell scripting.
[14:20] <skylive> please someone, why was the resolution on my liveCD ok, but once I installed, everything went haywire? my screen is capable of 1024.. res, but its now 640..
[14:20] <Templer> thanks that worked
[14:20] <seamus_ie> anyone here using the bc43xx driver patched for injection with the 2.6.22-14-generic SMP kernel?
[14:20] <Lap_Top> is there any one who can install Philips SAA7130 PCI TV card installation through ssh
[14:20] <fvwmnet> ubuntu-user: what you like?
[14:20] <DeadLy_sp> Pici,  thanks for ur advice
[14:20] <seamus_ie> skylive: edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[14:20] <ubuntu-user> fvwmnet: i wiil put new file on pastie.org
[14:20] <Lamego> skylive, probably you will need to reconfigure your screen and graphics driver
[14:21] <SatMan> which is better - debian or ubuntu?
[14:21] <Lamego> skylive, from a terminal run: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[14:21] <Jack_Sparrow> Funky two things wrong..  You need to be in the HArdy room if you are running Hardy.. (Ubuntu+1) and wubi isnt a real install.. as in unsupported and your problem is related to wubi and not the os.
[14:21] <Lamego> !better > SatMan
[14:21] <seamus_ie> !better seamus_ie
[14:21] <seamus_ie> !better > seamus_ie
[14:21] <Jack_Sparrow> SatMan, Offtopic
[14:21] <SatMan> ok
[14:22] <ubuntu-user> fvwmnet: http://pastie.org/169676
[14:22] <SatMan> as for now I am going with ubuntu :)
[14:22] <skylive> Lamego: Thanks, errm, if you are still here later, can I get back to you? my com kinda overheated =.="
[14:22] <Adpad>  does Compiz run on KDE or is it meant for Gnome
[14:22] <bazhang> Adpad: of course it does ;]
[14:22] <Scunizi> Adpad, it'll  run on both
[14:23] <Adpad> :)
[14:23] <Jack_Sparrow> SatMan, You are not limited to running one distro, you can setup an extra partition just for testing other ones out and dual boot them
[14:23] <ubuntu-user> fvwmnet: in resolve.conf are now 3 addresses
[14:23] <Lamego> skylive, not sure, try :)
[14:23]  * MM2 figured it out: -o utf8. How that is not default option?
[14:23] <evand> Jack_Sparrow: Wubi is a real install, and is supported.
[14:23] <Adpad> I ran it on KDE and it had funny behavior/errors
[14:23] <Adpad> must be doing something wrong?
[14:23] <Scunizi> SatMan, or even use vmware server to install them "virtually"
[14:23] <bazhang> but that was mint Adpad
[14:24] <SatMan> cool
[14:24] <Adpad> nope man, was on Kubuntu
[14:24] <Adpad> ;)
[14:24] <Jack_Sparrow> evand, Wubi is running under windows is a simulated folder setup. it isnt a real install, it isnt safe and I personally think it is worthless
[14:24] <bazhang> Adpad: what was the problem?
[14:24] <SatMan> how can I optimize (tweak?) my Ubuntu
[14:24] <Adpad> alt-tab caused areas of screen to go black, etc
[14:24] <SatMan> like I did with Windows
[14:24] <fvwmnet> ubuntu-user: in first line you can you > not >>
[14:24] <Adpad> but i will come ask again later, going to reboot to test
[14:24] <Adpad> (properly)
[14:24] <bazhang> Adpad: that was driver issue not kde
[14:25] <Adpad> ahh ok :)
[14:25] <Everheart> Hi guys is there anybody here who can help me with a kernel panic due to some already fixed HD bad sectors?
[14:25] <Lamego> wubi is a real install, it is just installed over a ntfs partition
[14:25] <evand> Jack_Sparrow:  It's not "simulated".  The only difference is that the root filesystem is a loop-mounted file on a NTFS partition rather than being directly mounted partition.  You can think it's worthless all you want, but don't tell other users that it's not real and not supported.
[14:25] <bassinboywk> is it possible to do a hardy installation with less than 1gb?
[14:26] <Jack_Sparrow> Lamego, It is a simulated partition inside a window folder,  That doe not count as a real install
[14:26] <Jack_Sparrow> !wubi
[14:26] <ubotu> wubi is an unofficial Ubuntu installer for Windows users - more info is at http://wubi-installer.org/
[14:26] <evand> That needs to be changed.
[14:26] <Lamego> Jack_Sparrow, uh why not ? A "real" installation is not based on the media it is installed, eg, an LVM LV is not a real partition
[14:27] <linxeh> does anyone here use truecrypt on ubuntu? how would I go about installing it ?
[14:27] <ompaul> Everheart, replace disks -- now if not sooner
[14:27] <CJS3141> I opened up "edit menus" (right-click on the Applications menu), and somehow in trying to delete one entry, I deleted the whole directory tree--I have no more menus under "applications" anymore. :-( I can't even run the "edit menus" anymore--can anyone please help?
[14:27] <legend2440> bassinboywk:  they would know in #ubuntu+1 channel. Thats hardy support channel
[14:27] <Adpad> bazhang - thanks again for the help
[14:27] <Adpad> be back later, ciao all
[14:28] <Everheart> but the bad sectors are fixed, why should I replace then? Windows failed too but chkdsk fixed it, why can't it get fixed on ubuntu?
[14:28] <Jack_Sparrow> Lamego, this is a support room... we need to drop the discussion.
[14:28] <bazhang> cya
[14:28] <ericus> Maybe someone can help me with this; I have a NTFS disk with a folder on it that used to be a mount point for another drive in windows
[14:28] <Adpad> thanks everyone who helped me today :)
[14:28] <ericus> how do i remove that folder?
[14:28] <snmpee> with your teeth
[14:28] <ericus> Warning: Unable to remove directory MOViE/ - Operation not supported
[14:28] <bazhang> snmpee: not helpful
[14:29] <ubuntu-user> fvwmnet: my resolve.conf after reboot: http://pastie.org/169680
[14:29] <Lamego> Jack_Sparrow, sorry, just had to correct your doubtfull opinnion on the answer
[14:29] <legend2440> bassinboywk: or read this it will tell you https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SystemRequirements
[14:29] <seamus_ie> ericus: writing to ntfs partitions os not supported by default as far as i remember
[14:29] <Jack_Sparrow> Lamego, I still feel wubi is worthless junk and I will never support it.
[14:30] <sant> how to format my pendrive on ntfs file system
[14:30] <ericus> yes, ntfs works well
[14:30] <bazhang> sant: format it for linux
[14:30] <ericus> i can write and remove other things on the disk
[14:30] <BeBoo_> seamus_ie: I write to my portable ntfs formatted drive just fine
[14:30] <sant> how to format
[14:30] <bazhang> sant you want to do what exactly
[14:30] <Pici> sant: Use gparted, its in the repositories.
[14:30] <BeBoo_> all i did was plug it in ;-)
[14:30] <evand> Jack_Sparrow: you don't have to, just keep silent when someone asks about it rather than spreading misinformation.
[14:31] <seamus_ie> ericus: hmm so idea so sorry
[14:31] <mysticalone> on ATI's site, they have 8.3 and I've seen 8.42, and I can see that 8.42 is a bigger number, this mean ATI hasn't updated their links?
[14:31] <sant> i want to format my pendrive
[14:31] <Jack_Sparrow> evand, NOt misinformation.. and I asked for this to be dropped, yet you insist on bringing it up again.
[14:31] <elTigre> anybody ever tried XP in qemu?
[14:31] <bazhang> sant so you said--to do what with it?
[14:31] <seamus_ie> sant: good for you, why you telling us?
[14:31] <Lamego> sant, yo manage the partition on it, you will need to use fdisk or cfdisk
[14:31] <elTigre> the device installation hangs
[14:31] <ericus> You know how you can name a disk in win, like C:/ (windows)
[14:31] <Pici> !gparted | sant
[14:32] <ericus> i wanna get rid of that
[14:32] <marcinsoo> exit
[14:32] <Lamego> I am not sure about ntfs, for the linux formats you have the mkfs.ext3 , etc
[14:32] <ubotu> sant: GParted is a !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted-livecd.tuxfamily.org/
[14:32] <Scunizi> !offtopic | Jack_Sparrow evand
[14:32] <ubotu> Jack_Sparrow evand: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[14:32] <sant> while trying gparted  format option is faded what to do
[14:32] <mysticalone> so should I use ati 8.3 or 8.42
[14:32] <evand> Jack_Sparrow: it absolutely is misinformation.  Wubi is officially supported by the Ubuntu project.  If you don't think this is appropriate for this channel, feel free to take this to a PM.
[14:32] <seamus_ie> ericus: being able to label a disk in windows?
[14:32] <Jack_Sparrow> evand, It may be included in Hardy..  THere are lazy people that will op for that soultion..
[14:32] <W8TAH> seamus_ie, sorry -- just returned -- ok - -looks good on the driver
[14:32] <W8TAH> Scunizi, its cold and grey - im ready for spring
[14:32] <bazhang> evand okay enough with the ot please
[14:32] <Stewie^Rupert> What best programs for ghosting / backup / make copies off my UBUNTU OS to another hardrive and able to boot.?
[14:32] <W8TAH> i need to get tower work done
[14:32] <ericus> yes seamus_ie, i want to remove the label
[14:32] <seamus_ie> W8TAH: cool, hope it works for ya
[14:33] <seamus_ie> ericus: in windows?
[14:33] <Jack_Sparrow> evand, We have discussed this in the ops room more than once,.
[14:33] <ericus> in ubuntu
[14:33] <legend2440> mysticalone:  8.3 is the latest driver came out March 5 2008
[14:33] <Scunizi> W8TAH, kd6wqk here. in the 80's for the last couple of days ;)
[14:33] <Jack_Sparrow> Stewie^Rupert, Basic dd command works for many people
[14:33] <mysticalone> so what is 8.42
[14:33] <Lamego> Jack_Sparrow, is is not about lazyness, there maybe tecnhical concerns to use ntfs as a target installation, do not presume that you clearly understand all the desried scenarios for a Ubuntu install
[14:34] <seamus_ie> ericus: ubuntu doesn't use windows drive labels, i think you need to rephrase you question
[14:34] <invertedtwisted> Hey everyone, is there a way for me to revert Ubuntu to like a fresh install without having to make myself an install disk and litterally reinstall the system?
[14:34] <Lamego> invertedtwisted, no,
[14:34] <seamus_ie> invertedtwisted: no not fully
[14:34] <Stewie^Rupert> Jack_Sparrow Is there a website for walk thought?
[14:34] <CJS3141> is there any way I can recover my Applications menu if I accidentally erased it with the menu editor?
[14:34] <Lap_Top> seamus_ie: I Dont Know My TV Tuner Driver How Can I Find Out
[14:34] <invertedtwisted> Damn :P
[14:35] <invertedtwisted> Thanks anyway, guess I'll just have to re-d/l it
[14:35] <Lamego> CJS3141, if they were installed by packages, you can reinstall the packages
[14:35] <Jack_Sparrow> Lamego, People that op for that type of installation need to be advised of the diferences between it and a real installation.
[14:35] <Stewie^Rupert> Jack_Sparrow does that backup and can be use as imaging to another hard drive ? and is it bootable?
[14:35] <bazhang> invertedtwisted: good to have a livecd around at any rate
[14:35] <legend2440> mysticalone:  read this http://ati.amd.com/support/drivers/linux64/radeonprevious-linux64.html
[14:35] <invertedtwisted> bazhang, I guess so.
[14:36] <Jack_Sparrow> !backup | Stewie^Rupert

[14:36] <bazhang> seamus_ie: not here and language
[14:36] <fvwmnet> ubuntu-user: http://pastie.org/169684
[14:36] <Jack_Sparrow> Stewie^Rupert, YEs it is bootable, to the point that hardware detection may require tweaking

[14:37] <jimqode> eva, your numlock is on
[14:37] <sant> plz help me how to format usb drive . i am unable to format using gparted what to do
[14:37] <Lamego> Jack_Sparrow, sure, but calling something a crap is not a tecnhical explanation, if you dont care about explaining the drawbacks of using wubi versus a plain partition install, then you should refraing yourself from answering
[14:37] <bazhang> www.pendrivelinux.com has details sant
[14:37] <legend2440> mysticalone:  for some reason ati changed the way they name the versions
[14:37] <Jack_Sparrow> Lamego, I will ask politely , again, to drop the wubi discussion.  this is not the place.
[14:38] <eva> Sorry, no the keylock is not on. Login works great in the non-gnome terminals
[14:38] <Stewie^Rupert> Jack_Sparrow what are the steps to tweak the hardware detection?
[14:38] <Jack_Sparrow> Lamego, you should create the #Ubuntu-wubi room and we can send those interested to you
[14:38] <evand> Jack_Sparrow: then identify a place to continue this discussion, because this needs to be resolved.  You cannot continue to spread this misinformation to users.
[14:38] <Jack_Sparrow> #ubuntu-ops or offtopic
[14:39] <eva> Google and the Ubuntu bug database finds me nothing
[14:39] <sant> help me
[14:39] <Lamego> Jack_Sparrow, I will ask politely that you do not keep presenting your personal oppining and providing it as a tecnhical answer to a user's question
[14:39] <sant> how to format my pendrive
[14:39] <bazhang> sant you need to read that link first
[14:39] <sant> i have read nothing useful
[14:40] <Lamego> sant, mkfs.ntfs-3g
[14:40] <bazhang> sant you have read nothing in that link? best to read it first
[14:40] <Stewie^Rupert> Jack_Sparrow are there a website for  tweaks for the hardware detection?
[14:40] <remoulade> Hi, how can i change the user owning a partition so that i get full permissions ?
[14:40] <bazhang> Lamego: best to let it drop. now.
[14:40] <bartmon> sant: pendrive as in usb flash drive?
[14:40] <seamus_ie> eva: i had a similar problem a while ago, turned out to be a prob with language and keyboard layout configs, maybe check those
[14:41] <sant> s bartmon
[14:41] <eva> seamus Where would I check that?
[14:41] <bartmon> Lamego: don't be silly, a journaling fs like ntfs on flash is a nono
[14:41] <seamus_ie> in gnome? not fully sure, i think there's a keyboad layout item in on of the system preference menus
[14:42] <Lamego> dropped
[14:42] <bartmon> sant: Why do you want to format it?
[14:42] <eva> seamus Problem is that I can not log into gnome, that's the problem :-)
[14:42] <ericus> how do i get permission to write on a disk that i just mounted?
[14:42] <sant> i am affected by newfolder.exe virus
[14:43] <bazhang> ericus ntfs? did you just plug it in?
[14:43] <ericus> ext3, just formatted it
[14:43] <amortvigil> what does "ERROR: Input file "(stdin)" is not a supported format" mean?
[14:43] <ericus> from some leftover space
[14:43] <bartmon> sant: On the flashdrive?
[14:43] <Seveas> sant, this is a linux channel, leave windows problems at the doorstep please
[14:43] <sant> yes
[14:43] <bazhang> sant are you going to boot ubuntu on it? or is this for windows only? are you running ubuntu?
[14:43] <bartmon> sant: are you running a ubuntu liveCD?
[14:44] <sant> i am using ubuntu
[14:44] <bazhang> sant then please read the link so you can ask more informed questions; just repeating the same one is not helpful
[14:45] <sant> how to remove newfolder.exe virus permanentely
[14:45] <Lamego> sant, that question is off topic
[14:45] <bullgard4> After Ctrl+Alt+F1 I can return to my X now only after pressing Ctrl+Alt+F8. In the past it used to be Ctrl+Alt+F7. Pressing now Ctrl+Alt+F7 displays a console with 4 lines of text starting with 'Reloading' and an active prompt. There are only 6 getty processes. What is the reason that the X windows system moved?
[14:45] <Lamego> try ##windows
[14:45] <bazhang> sant honestly I gave you a link; please read it
[14:47] <bartmon> Lamego: don't be a dick. sant is running ubuntu and he needs help deleting a file or growing a filesystem. Is the reason why relevant?
[14:47] <bartmon> Sry about the language.
[14:47] <Lamego> language
[14:47] <bazhang> bartmon: not nice to call names; cmon

[14:55] <mutantman> guys i need help with my ut server
[14:55] <lastelement0> hey all i dont have the ubuntu progress bar when i boot up.  i just have a black screen then i get my login screen
[14:56] <whyameye> Lo_Pan: thanks. That looks like it might work.
[14:56] <skylive> so it won't work, and I'll have to wait it out?
[14:56] <david_> Hi. How do I install a windows game with wine?
[14:56] <Scunizi> lastelement0, you might try removing quiet and splash from the boot process... not sure how to do it myself but from my readings  that might make a difference.
[14:56] <hwilde> !wine | david_
[14:56] <ubotu> david_: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility.
[14:57] <david_> http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=7440 << This is the game, but I don't know how to install it.
[14:57] <natalija> hi
[14:57] <lastelement0> Scunizi: what do they do?
[14:57] <skylive> I currently don't have net on that computer (need wireless driver), but If I do get on, can i download ndiswapper from the repositories?
[14:58] <bullgard4> After Ctrl+Alt+F1 I can return to my X now only after pressing Ctrl+Alt+F8. In the past it used to be Ctrl+Alt+F7. Pressing now Ctrl+Alt+F7 displays a console with 4 lines of text starting with 'Reloading' and an active prompt. There are only 6 getty processes. What is the reason that the X windows system moved?
[14:58] <inqui> but " Restricted Driver Manager" doas do what? do i have to chance the xorg.conf in anyway?  i dont feel like enableing glx by useing " Restricted Driver Manager" ...
[14:58] <Scunizi> lastelement0, sounded like they supress what you are looking for
[14:58] <Lamego> bullgard4, I am not sure, but I believe that is configured on the gdm conf, the VT that should be used for the X session, the display number is used as an offset
[14:59] <lastelement0> ahhhh now i just lost my top bar of my windows
[15:00] <heymr> lastelement0: with compiz-fusion?
[15:00] <jamiehd> hi guys
[15:01] <lastelement0> heymr: yes i use compiz-fusion. but its my emerald theme.
[15:01] <roychri> I am lost.  I want to manage my partitions (owned by root) but I cannot login as root in gnome.  How can I manage stuff?

 HOw can I check how much space do I have in the partition?
[15:15] <aoshi> I actually just reinstalled them.

If anyone could point me to information about this problem, It would be much appreciated :) Will provide further 
[15:16] <aoshi> ketzerei: do you know of another program for viewing .avis other than Totem?
[15:16] <ketzerei> Mplayer

[15:16] <HardyOne> james, it gives you amount used of total amount correct?
[15:16] <Odd-rationale> Raven: do you have the file /usr/bin/kdesu ?
[15:16] <Jack_Sparrow> billj, 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] <ketzerei> aoshi: sudo apt-get install mplayer
[15:16] <aoshi> kk
[15:16] <HardyOne> james_n, it gives amount used of total amount correct?
[15:17] <aspire> hello
[15:17] <aspire> can any one tell me which is the CVS client of preference?
[15:17] <Raven> I have kdesu_stub but that's it it appears
[15:17] <aoshi> because it only makes them look purple when I'm watching like an avi or mpg
[15:17] <aoshi> not a youtube video
[15:17] <ericus> why cant i disable the recently used menu? i made .recently-used write protected, but its not working
[15:17] <ketzerei> aoshi: yeah, do you have an ati card?
[15:18] <seamus_ie> aoshi: gmplayer, vlc, xine
[15:18] <aoshi> ketzerei: installing mplayer fixed it XD
[15:18] <james_n> HardyOne on the system tab it says Momory:  249.9 and on the Resources tab it says im using 44% of the 249.9
[15:18] <Odd-rationale> Raven: Wait a minute. Are you using ubuntu or kubuntu?
[15:18] <aoshi> thanks<3
[15:18] <ketzerei> I knew it would.

[15:18] <ketzerei> Could someone please help me? I'm having ubuntu install issues. This is the link to my post "http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4576779#post4576779"
[15:18] <Odd-rationale> Raven: Why in the world are you using adept with ubuntu?
[15:18] <aspire> hi, can any one suggest me a CVS client?
[15:19] <Raven> lol no clue I'm brand new to linux and just trying to figure stuff out lol
[15:19] <HardyOne> james_n, and how much ram you expecting to see?
[15:19] <oops6_4> jaebird: Hi
[15:19] <Odd-rationale> Raven: Use synaptic with ubuntu. adept for kubuntu.
[15:19] <ketzerei> aspire: sudo apt-get install cvs
[15:19] <ricanelite> i tried to install zsnes emulator on ubuntu 7.10 it installed fine but when i try to open it. It does open but then closes
[15:19] <Raven> Oh ok :-) have time for another question or two?
[15:19] <james_n> HardyOne this computer had over a gig of ram.  i dont have the exact number but i can restart and find out if necessairy
[15:19] <ketzerei> ricanelite: type zsnes in the console, post the output
[15:20] <Odd-rationale> Raven: sure. Might want to uninstall adept - unless you plann to use kubuntu.
[15:20] <julian_> hi, im trying to compile my own kernel...
[15:20] <stefg_> ketzerei: clean your optical drive ... or use a different one if you can. This all looks like hardware trouble
[15:20] <HardyOne> james_n, that is a weird issue. not certain how you would debug that
[15:20] <Raven> I just did thanks.  If I download a file from the web I see there are different types of linux files, what type do I need for Ubuntu and how do I install it then?
[15:20] <ketzerei> stefg: Kubuntu had NO trouble, so that makes no sense.
[15:21] <julian_> i installed the header and the source unpacked it. and copied the ubuntu config from /boot/config-<uname -r> to the source folder. and just tried to compile. but everytime i compile it i get new errors messages
[15:21] <Odd-rationale> Raven: You mean download a app?
[15:21] <HardyOne> Raven, before downloading make sure the app you want is not in the repositories first
[15:21] <stefg_> ketzerei: what other expalanation do you have for a checksum error then ?
[15:21] <HardyOne> !synaptic | Raven
[15:21] <ubotu> Raven: synaptic is Ubuntu's Graphical Package Manager. For a good howto see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto
[15:21] <james_n> Hardyone is it possible that im reading it wrong?  or should the system tab tell me the amout of ram
[15:21] <julian_> anyone knows how that could happen?
[15:21] <seamus_ie> julian_: have you installed build-essential
[15:21] <julian_> yeah i did
[15:21] <ricanelite> how do i get into the console?
[15:21] <genii> aspire: gcvs
[15:21] <Raven> Yes to download an app that isn't in the repositories?
[15:21] <HardyOne> james_n, well my system tab shows the correct amount of ram
[15:21] <ricanelite> ketzerei you mean terminal?
[15:21] <ketzerei> There ARE no checksum error. They check out perfectly everytime. I burn them with nero, so nothing should have gone wrong, it boots fine, I get no errors....
[15:21] <Jack_Sparrow> james_n, resources tab
[15:21] <ketzerei> yeah.
[15:22] <julian_> seamus_ie, it fails sometimes after 30 minutes of compilation sometimes after 15 minutes and the error is another every time
[15:22] <Odd-rationale> Raven: get a .deb file for ubuntu
[15:22] <HardyOne> Raven, you want to get .deb
[15:22] <Odd-rationale> Raven: Like what app?
[15:22] <prince_jammys> Raven: what app?
[15:22] <james_n> both system and resources tabs say 249.9
[15:22] <prince_jammys> jinx
[15:22] <stefg_> ketzerei: when exactly does the install stop? each time at the same point/percentage ?
[15:22] <Odd-rationale> Stop echoing me!
[15:22] <ricanelite> Use ZSNES -? for command line definitions.
[15:22] <ricanelite> Starting Mouse detection.
[15:22] <ricanelite> ManyMouse: 2 mice detected.
[15:22] <ricanelite> Using ManyMouse for:
[15:22] <ricanelite> Mouse 0: USB Optical Mouse
[15:22] <Odd-rationale> :)
[15:22] <FloodBot2> ricanelite: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[15:22] <ricanelite> Mouse 1: Macintosh mouse button emulation
[15:22] <ricanelite> Creating link /root/.kde/socket-ricanelite-desktop.
[15:22] <Raven> Ok cool .deb file then how would I go and install it?  No specific app, just curiousity.
[15:22] <ketzerei> about 48%, or the "Select and instal software" on the alternate cd.
[15:22] <Odd-rationale> Raven: Download and double click
[15:23] <HardyOne> Raven, with .deb use dpkg -i filename.deb
[15:23] <stefg_> !software| Raven
[15:23] <Acxty> is there an application similar to the dude http://www.mikrotik.com/thedude.php
[15:23] <Jack_Sparrow> james_n, resources tab should have a line XXX mb   of   XX MB or gb
[15:23] <HardyOne> Raven, or double click yeah
[15:23] <Raven> oh ok, that's easy then.
[15:23] <marsje_> Quesion: can I use the ubuntu live cd as a rescue cd? My grub stopped working (error 15 in stage 1.5) :-(
[15:23] <prince_jammys> Raven: you can use "gdebi" which you have installed by default, or do : dpkg -i nameofapp.deb in a terminal
[15:23] <aspire> genii, is that a command line tool?
[15:23] <remoulade> How can i change that ? "Device has /dev/sda1 volume.ignore set to TRUE. Refusing to mount."
[15:23] <seamus_ie> julian_: sorry are you compiling a new kernel or installing a package through a package manager?
[15:23] <ubotu> Raven: A general introduction to the ways software can be installed, removed and managed in Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoftwareManagement - See also !Packages, !Equivalents
[15:23] <Annirak> The maching which I was running my mysqld had its chipset die.  Now I'm getting the message that mysql can't bind to port 3306.  What can I do to fix it?
[15:23] <james_n> yeah it says that but it lists 249.9 mb when i should be over a gig
[15:23] <ricanelite> here is the message im getting when trying to load up zsnes on ubuntu 7.10
[15:24] <Lap_Top> what is the best multipurpose media converter any one guide me from where to download
[15:24] <bazhang> ricanelite: pastebin it please
[15:24] <bruenig> Lap_Top: ffmpeg
[15:24] <Odd-rationale> Raven: I reccomend you read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto
[15:24] <prince_jammys> Lap_Top: mencoder and ffmpeg
[15:24] <seamus_ie> Lap_Top: mencoder is pretty good
[15:24] <julian_> seamus_ie, im compiling a new kernel into a package
[15:24] <bazhang> ricanelite: not in the channel
[15:24] <simmerz> whenever i fire up my laptop, the hard disc spins and does stuff for ages.... is it something to do with indexing or something?
[15:24] <seamus_ie> julian_: using checkinstall?
[15:24] <bruenig> ffmpeg > mencoder
[15:24] <ricanelite> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60866/
[15:24] <Raven> Lots of reading to do, alright.  I'm lucky I only have 3 classes this semester.
[15:25] <HardyOne> Raven, dont have to learn it all today :)
[15:25] <Jack_Sparrow> simmerz, see if it isnt trackerd or something like that.
[15:25] <Lap_Top> seamus_ie: from where i can download mencoder
[15:25] <genii> aspire: No, it's a Gnome based browser for CVS
[15:25] <Raven> Final question, is there a way to run an app on Ubuntu that is made for Windows only?
[15:25] <HardyOne> Lap_Top, from repos
[15:25] <seamus_ie> Lap_Top: sudo apt-get install mencoder
[15:25] <HardyOne> !wine | Raven
[15:25] <Odd-rationale> !wine | Raven
[15:25] <ubotu> Raven: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility.
[15:25] <seamus_ie> Raven: wine
[15:25] <Lamego> Raven, you can try it with wine, and as last resource, vmware
[15:26] <bazhang> ricanelite: did you install from the repos?
[15:26] <Odd-rationale> HardyOne: Beat you again! ;)
[15:26] <ricanelite> yes
[15:26] <Jack_Sparrow> !appdb
[15:26] <ubotu> The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org
[15:26] <aspire> thanks, that sounds ideal, does it allow developer access? genii
[15:26] <HardyOne> Odd-rationale, not on my screen you didnt
[15:26] <julian_> seamus_ie,  havent used it cause make-kpkg crashes on compiling before
[15:26] <ricanelite> when is th new ubuntu coming out?>
[15:26] <rsk> !release
[15:26] <bazhang> late april ricanelite
[15:26] <Odd-rationale> HardyOne: hmm.
[15:26] <ubotu> Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 18 months to 5 years. More info at http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases
[15:26] <ricanelite> nice
[15:26] <Odd-rationale> ricanelite: april 24
[15:26] <ginofriz> !release
[15:26] <simmerz> Jack_Sparrow: trackerd and updatedb seemingly
[15:26] <Raven> Sweet thanks guys you've all been extremely helpful.  Must say I never realized how bloated and slow Windows was until I tried out Ubuntu.
[15:26] <seamus_ie> julian_: ok so the prob is in compiling the kernel? whats the initial error?
[15:26] <ricanelite> looking nice
[15:27] <Jack_Sparrow> simmerz, trackered should settle down after a bit.
[15:27] <bazhang> ricanelite: that error message is from configuring the mouse?
[15:27] <Vadi> How can I mount a swap patrition?
[15:27] <ricanelite> well thats the message i got when trying to load up zsnes
[15:27] <ricanelite> from the terminal
[15:27] <seamus_ie> Vadi: why would you want to?
[15:27] <Jack_Sparrow> Vadi, What are you trying to do?
[15:27] <Vadi> Because it's there, but not mounted
[15:27] <bazhang> ricanelite: are you using a mouse to play zsnes?
[15:27] <Vadi> "free" shows it as zero
[15:28] <simmerz> Jack_Sparrow: but *every* time it fires up??? Almost makes my core 2 duo laptop completely unresponsive!
[15:28] <genii> aspire: Since I use Subversion and not CVS I don't know about the capabilities of gcvs, other than it exists in the repositories
[15:28] <Jack_Sparrow> Vadi, it only uses it as needed, and often it is not.
[15:28] <ricanelite> well the kb and mouse is all i have connected right now
[15:28] <ricanelite> but i do have a USB Gamepad controller
[15:28] <ricanelite> should I connect it in
[15:28] <Vadi> Jack_Sparrow: But it's not
[15:28] <Jack_Sparrow> simmerz, you can turn it off...
[15:28] <Vadi> "Swap:            0          0          0"
[15:28] <simmerz> Jack_Sparrow: where?
[15:28] <simmerz> oh - indexing preference
[15:28] <Vadi> It usually shows numbers of how big is it when it's working..
[15:28] <Jack_Sparrow> Vadi, swapon ?
[15:28] <bazhang> ricanelite: best to get a usb controller for that and configure through the zsnes setup screen
[15:28] <seamus_ie> Vadi:  a swap partition is used as a temporary storage area, you can turn it off but i wouldn't reccomend it
[15:29] <Vadi> I want to turn it on
[15:29] <ricanelite> well i don't get a setup screen
[15:29] <Jack_Sparrow> simmerz, get it ok?
[15:29] <HardyOne> Odd-rationale, my timestamp still shows me in the lead lmao
[15:29] <balle> Vadi: swap partitions are sometimes used as RAM, but totally unnescesarry, you can delete it with gparted if you want...
[15:29] <bazhang> ricanelite: you have to go into the control panel for that
[15:29] <Vadi> balle: no, I want to turn it on, not off!
[15:29] <simmerz> yeah cheers
[15:29] <aspire> does not look like I will be able to upload to it, genii any suggestions as to how I could go about this would be fantastic
[15:29] <Jack_Sparrow> great
[15:29] <ricanelite> ok
[15:29] <ricanelite> do you know if a PS3 controller will work?
[15:29] <balle> vadi: it doesnt have any function AFAIK
[15:30] <simmerz> Jack_Sparrow: might just slow it down and see if that works first
[15:30] <bazhang> ricanelite: and then you have to map what each key does it is very intuitive
[15:30] <ricanelite> ok
[15:30] <shemgp> !swap
[15:30] <ubotu> swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info
[15:30] <Vadi> Jack_Sparrow: It's not working anymore :( http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60867/
[15:30] <seamus_ie> Vadi: it should be on already, you can change something called the swappiness but I would recommend reading about it before changing it. everyone seems to have a difierent opinion about it
[15:31] <seamus_ie> Vadi: how much ram do you have?
[15:31] <Vadi> seamus_ie: I cannot get my swap to start working. I have the swap patrition in place. It's just not mounted, see this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60867/
[15:32] <ricanelite> okay, what is mythtv? is that similar to media center on the windows side?
[15:32] <seamus_ie> Vadi:  swap partitions are not mounted
[15:32] <shemgp> Vadi: make sure the swap partition is in the /etc/fstab
[15:32] <bazhang> ricanelite: think tivo but free
[15:32] <ricanelite> um
[15:32] <ricanelite> nice
[15:32] <Vadi> Yes it is
[15:32] <bieb> ricanelite: like TiVO   Linuxmce.com for Win Media center type
[15:32] <ricanelite> but i will need to have a TV Turner
[15:33] <bieb> yes
[15:33] <bazhang> true
[15:33] <shemgp> Vadi: swapon -a ?
[15:33] <deamon3> hey
[15:33] <Jack_Sparrow> Vadi, were you moving any partitions around or resizing them
[15:33] <Vadi> shemgp: didn't work http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60867/
[15:33] <Vadi> Jack_Sparrow: Not in a while
[15:33] <vaesoli> Can anyone in here help me with my sound card issue?
[15:33] <deamon3> for when is ready hardy heron  ?¡
[15:33] <Vadi> But I haven't rebooted for 5 days now... just kept suspending my laptop. Could that have done it?
[15:34] <Pici> deamon3: End of april. support/discussion in #ubuntu+1
[15:34] <Jack_Sparrow> Vadi, Do a uuid and see if you messed it up awhile back and are just now seeing it.
[15:34] <Vadi> Jack_Sparrow: how?
[15:34] <Jack_Sparrow> !uuid
[15:34] <ubotu> To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[15:35] <Lap_Top> i have installed the mencoder but i cant find it anywhere in my application
[15:35] <seamus_ie> Lap_Top: it is a command line application, man mencoder
[15:35] <Vadi> Jack: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60868/
[15:36] <Gizmo_The_Great> Is there a way to set 'gThumb Image Viewer' as my automatic JPEG picture viewer? At the moment it's 'Eye of Gnome 2.2'
[15:36] <Jack_Sparrow> Vadi, compare the uuid of blkid to the uuid you are trying to use for swap.. they dont seem to match
[15:36] <Lap_Top> is there any GUI application for media convertor
[15:36] <Lap_Top> seamus_ie: Is there any GUI media convertor for multi purpose
[15:37] <Vadi> Jack_Sparrow: True. What now?
[15:37] <seamus_ie> Lap_Top: i don't know any for gnome off the top of my head, sorry
[15:37] <Jack_Sparrow> VAdwhen you played with the partitions you changed uuid on your swap partition.
[15:37] <daning> Gizmo_The_Great: right click at a jpeg file. then click property->open with
[15:37] <Lap_Top> seamus_ie: can i use my infra red remote at TV Time
[15:38] <daning> Gizmo_The_Great: and select the application
[15:38] <erUSUL> !info soundconverter | Lap_Top
[15:38] <Vadi> Jack_Sparrow: I haven't in ages though... probably not since I got the laptop. But how can I fix it?
[15:38] <ubotu> lap_top: soundconverter (source: soundconverter): Convert audio files into other formats. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.9.6-1 (gutsy), package size 65 kB, installed size 428 kB
[15:38] <jburd> I need to issue a command as soon as networking is up and working when my computer starts up.  Where should this command be placed?
[15:38] <Lap_Top> erUSUL: I M Looking For Multi Purpose Media Convertor for Audio and Video
[15:39] <Gizmo_The_Great> daning, sorry. I not explained properly. Yes, I know how to do that but I mean automatically, i.e. when I click the file I just want it to open using gThumb by default instead of Eye of Gnome
[15:39] <Jack_Sparrow> Vadi, sudo apt-get install pastebinit  && cat /etc/fstab | pastebinit (Provide Pastebin link in channel)
[15:39] <Odd-rationale> Lap_Top: I know of one that is not in the repos... It is pretty good, though
[15:39] <daning> Lap_Top: audacity can convert some audio.
[15:40] <jburd> The command is a wakeonlan broadcast that needs to be issued.
[15:40] <Odd-rationale> Lap_Top: Let me get link...
[15:40] <jburd> Placing it in /etc/rc.local didn't work.
[15:40] <Vadi> Jack: http://paste.stgraber.org/1942
[15:40] <buttterz> morning -- how can i help someone :)
[15:40] <Odd-rationale> Lap_Top: http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php/Fuoco++audio\video+converter++and+more+?content=73886
[15:41] <daning> Gizmo_The_Great: when once you select the application, next time, the application will be the default open with application
[15:41] <bartmon> Hey guys. Is there a reason why the Ubuntu liveCD installer doesn't want to mount anything other than ext3?
[15:41] <daning> Gizmo_The_Great: and do you mean to set the application by command line?
[15:41] <erUSUL> jburd: /etc/rc.local ?
[15:41] <Jack_Sparrow> Vadi, http://paste.stgraber.org/1943                 but plase make a copy before you restart
[15:41] <buttterz> bartmon , are you trying to repair a volume?
[15:42] <amortvigil> what does this error mean and how can i fix it sox stio: Can't open input file `04. Onwards.ogg': No such file or directory ?
[15:42] <jburd> erUSUL: I want to issue this command as soon as my box starts up with networking up as well:  wakeonlan -f /etc/wakeonlan.wol
[15:42] <Gizmo_The_Great> daning, Thanks, but that does not seem to be the case. I constantly having to tell Ubuntu to use gThmb instead of EOG every time. And no, not by command line (I realise I can just type gthumb photo.jpg) - I am referring to within the GUI
[15:42] <cdc> Antiv-virus for Ubuntu 7.10 - [i know being linux it isn't really necessary for the most part] but which one is recommended to use?
[15:42] <jburd> erUSUL: Where should I place that command?
[15:43] <bartmon> buttterz: No, i'm installing on an already partitioned disk. I wanted to use reiserfs for /boot and / but if i choose anything other than ext3 for the 2  the installer complains that it can't mount them and returns me to the partition setup.
[15:43] <jburd> cdc: You don't need an anti-virus for Linux computers.  If you're running mail servers or public shares, you might need one that runs to check those to protect Windows computers.
[15:43] <erUSUL> jburd: before the exit 0 keyword on /etc/rc.local
[15:43] <ngabriel_> anyone working on an xbmc app for iphone sdk?
[15:43] <buttterz> bartmon , i'm not sure you can -- are you in a graphical installation?
[15:44] <jburd> erUSUL: I tried that. I'll do that again.  One sec.
[15:44] <Jack_Sparrow> !virus
[15:44] <ubotu> A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[15:44] <cdc> jburd - I know you don't but is there one out there because I cannot join my ubuntu computer to my work domain until it has one.
[15:44] <daning> Gizmo_The_Great: I think something must be wrong with you ubuntu.
[15:44] <seamus_ie> bartmon: this is because the kernel only has ext3 drivers compiled into it.
[15:44] <jburd> Why can't you join them?
[15:44] <jburd> @ cdc
[15:44] <bazhang> cdc clamav in the repos; also avast has one for linux
[15:44] <Gizmo_The_Great> daning, yes - that is what I thought initially but I thought I'd check here in case I was doing something daft
[15:45] <bartmon> seamus_ie: Ah... But not even ext2 support which is a subset of ext3? :)
[15:45] <cdc> jburd, company policy, any computer on domain must have firewall/antivirus regardless of OS.
[15:45] <qcjn> how can i share a hd via network ubuntu 7.10
[15:45] <cdc> bazhang, thanks, will check them out.
[15:45] <jburd> cdc: Tell them that this OS doesn't have viruses?
[15:45] <Lamego> cdc, such policy is not applicable to all Unixes
[15:45] <Jack_Sparrow> cdc, iptables count as firewall, you run a higher risk if you install an iptable manager aka firewall on top of it
[15:46] <cdc> jburd, the domain admins understand that but they are political and want to keep a standard.
[15:46] <seamus_ie> bartmon: yup, you could compile a kernel with reiserfs support built in or just use ext3 for /boot and / and use reiserfs for /home
[15:46] <danand> bartmon - ext3 and ext2 are seperate kernel modules - modprobe -l | grep ext
[15:46] <jburd> cdc: Tell them to find and install one for you.  That will teach them.
[15:46] <cdc> Jack_Sparrow, is there a manual on how to manipulate your iptables.
[15:46] <Jack_Sparrow> cdc, only due to the users experience level, no slight intended to the applications firestarter or guarddog
[15:46] <Jack_Sparrow> cdc, from term man iptables
[15:46] <bartmon> seamus_ie, danand: Thanks for the info.
[15:46] <Filled-Void> Hi all . When i try to run a program I wrote in Anjuta (Im new to using this or Programming on Linux for that matter) I get the Error: Program '/home/biju/Desktop/test1' is not a local file . COuld anyone tell me what I am missing
[15:47] <cdc> Jack_Sparrow, thx
[15:47] <Jack_Sparrow> cdc, you will find clamav works great at scanning windows files
[15:47] <Lamego> cdc, but those corp like policies are you sure you are alllowed to run a non standard OS ?
[15:47] <buttterz> Filled-Void , thats odd! -- umm first of all what language
[15:47] <Lamego> by
[15:48] <Filled-Void> buttterz, C its a very basic program. it compiles fine no errors. but I have no clue on how tog et it to run within Anjuta :x Im on Ubuntu GG 64 bit if that helps.
[15:48] <ballin> hello everybody i have a silly question
[15:48] <bazhang> cya Lamego
[15:49] <Lamego> cya :)
[15:49] <buttterz> Filled-Void you just use ./
[15:49] <bazhang> ;]
[15:49] <ericus> shoot ballin
[15:49] <Jack_Sparrow> Filled-Void, do you have a 32 bit system handy for testing
[15:49] <Filled-Void> Jack_Sparrow, unfortunately no :(
[15:49] <buttterz> Filled-Void , do you have a make file?? and i assume its a.out or something -- unless you specified otherwise
[15:49] <Filled-Void> Jack i can compile frmo the terminal using gcc with no problem
[15:49] <ballin> i have ubuntu on a split partition with xp. last time i shut down ubuntu that partition was 100% full, i'm assuming it was because i was watching something on firefox, and firefox usually drains my hard drive, until i close it, when it cleans itself up, but instead of closing it i just shut down
[15:49] <ballin> now i can't get in, and i'm on the live cd.
[15:49] <Filled-Void> buttterz, I have a test1.o file
[15:49] <buttterz> Filled-Void , then whats the problem
[15:50] <buttterz> Filled-Void thats compiled as a module
[15:50] <mcquaid> is it possible with the built in gui for remote desktop.  to enable someone to connect, but not update locally, or even need be logged in
[15:50] <ballin> is there a way i can jump through the terminal on the live cd, to delete some stuff on the partition?
[15:50] <buttterz> Filled-Void , compile it as an executable then run ./programname
[15:50] <Filled-Void> buttterz, ASHouldnt it run when you go to Build > Execute Program ?
[15:50] <Filled-Void> SHouldn't*
[15:50] <Jack_Sparrow> ballin, YOu can delete or move to a different partition /var/cache/apt/archives  and try to reboot
[15:50] <erUSUL> ballin: mount the partition you want to modify
[15:51] <ricanelite> wow i got some compiz settings setup
[15:51] <ricanelite> wow it looks awesome
[15:51] <ricanelite> with the Magic Lamp minimize
[15:51] <digitalslavery_> hi, I need some help configuring my new server for raid 5
[15:51] <ricanelite> just looks amazing
[15:51] <thiemster> ricanelite: that is a little off topic for the server
[15:51] <bazhang> ricanelite: nice ;]
[15:51] <buttterz> Filled-Void , i mean i suppose i have never used anjuta -- i recommend c to be edited in gedit or vim
[15:51] <ricanelite> sorry
[15:51] <ricanelite> i just had to say that
[15:51] <darkblue_B> Q. adding mod_python and a custom PythonHandler to my 7.10 box.. easy for a non-admin like me? error prone? danger stay away? opinions welcome
[15:51] <ballin> so var/cache/apt/archive is free to delete?
[15:52] <thiemster> ricanelite: that's ok, but i think #ubuntuforums might be better for that. #ubuntu is more for technical help
[15:52] <cdc> Lamego, yes, I have approved a non standard os but application standards are still in place
[15:52] <HardyOne> ballin, yes
[15:52] <Jack_Sparrow> ballin, nice to keep if you can stick it on a usb or another partition.
[15:52] <ballin> thank you hardy
[15:52] <Lamego> balle, use apt-get clean instead
[15:52] <nzerox> is there anyone here that knows how to get java6 to work on ubuntu-sparc platform?
[15:52] <HardyOne> ballin, youcan sudo apt-get autoclean
[15:52] <Filled-Void> buttterz,Yeah I was using gedit with terminal so far. I wanted to be able to try it out in Anjuta :) . Guess I'll go back to gedit + plugins
[15:52] <ballin> word yeah i think i'll do that
[15:52] <ballin> hardy, how would i go about doing that on the live cd.
[15:52] <ballin> just cd to that filesystem?
[15:52] <Jack_Sparrow> ballin, aptoncd is nice to keep them handy for a later reinstall
[15:53] <Jack_Sparrow> !aptoncd
[15:53] <ubotu> APTonCD is a tool with a graphical interface which allows you to create one or more CDs or DVDs with all of the packages you've downloaded via apt-get or aptitude, creating a removable repository that you can use on other computers
[15:53] <jburd> erUSUL: It didn't work.
[15:54] <Filled-Void> buttterz and Jack_Sparrow Thanks for help :D
[15:54] <jburd> erUSUL: Where else can I place it?
[15:54] <Jack_Sparrow> Filled-Void, np
[15:55] <ballin> i couldn't delete from the file system, lets see if i can delete through the terminal
[15:55] <erUSUL> jburd: you can try to edit /etc/network/interfaces and add the command to the specific net interface "stanza" as a post-up command (see man interfaces) that will ensure that the command is run once the iface is up
[15:55] <bartmon> ballin: Try "sudo apt-get purge" first
[15:56] <jburd> erUSUL: Alright.
[15:56] <ballin> how would i do that since i'm on a live cd right now
[15:56] <TWP-SirStaal> Someone familiar with the Ubuntu (gutsy gibbon) wifi installation?
[15:56] <ballin> bartmon: how would i do that since i'm on a live cd right now
[15:56] <cdc> What is the command to read the manual on how to add a custom command on pre-login or post-login?
[15:57] <bazhang> TWP-SirStaal: what card?
[15:57] <bartmon> ballin: You need to delete the files on your haard drive install?
[15:57] <thiemster> TWP-SirStaal: if you mean an application to access wifi, wicd is a good one (sudo apt-get install wicd)
[15:57] <Jack_Sparrow> Time for me to run to the Dr for another checkup..  Play nice
[15:57] <erUSUL> Jack_Sparrow: bye;
[15:57] <Flanger> Hi all, I'm trying to raise resolution of Hardy in Virtualbox. (yes I installed the vbox drivers). Somehow I can't get better than 800x600 from gfx card. Anyone else has this prob?
[15:57] <TWP-SirStaal> One second will check it
[15:57] <ballin> yeah, i need to delete something off of my ubuntu partition so i can get back into ubuntu and start firefox which i'm assuming it would clean itself up and give me back 200mbs
[15:58] <Lamego> cdc, !hardy
[15:58] <Lamego> ops
[15:58] <bazhang> Flanger: #ubuntu+1 please

[15:58] <ballin> because that partition is 100% full, thanks to firefox, and i can't log in now, so now i'm on the live cd
[15:58] <Lamego> ballin, you can login into the terminal, CTRL-ALT-F1
[15:58] <TWP-SirStaal> This is my network card: BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller
[15:59] <Flanger> oops...
[15:59] <seamus_ie> ballin: reboot into your harddrive install. then switch to a terminal (<ctrl>+<alt>+<f1>) , login and work from there

[15:59] <Flanger> join #ubuntu+1
[15:59] <bartmon> ballin: From the live CD you first have to mount that partition. Try sth like "sudo mkdir /media/hdubuntu" followed by "cd /media/hdubuntu". Then you can cd to your home directory: "cd /home/ballin/.mozilla"
[15:59] <erUSUL> ballin: have you tried to boot in recovery mode ?? if all you want is to delete some (unused files) id the fastest route
[16:00] <bartmon> ballin: you should remove stuff from there because AFAIK that is where ff stores the cache
[16:00] <erUSUL> bartmon: in that secuence you forgot the actual mount command ;P
[16:00] <bartmon> erUSUL: damn :p
[16:01] <darkblue_B> Q. adding mod_python and a custom PythonHandler to my 7.10 box.. easy for a non-admin like me? error prone? danger stay away? opinions welcome
[16:01] <darkblue_B> eg.. wrestling with the Apache2 controls in Ubuntu..
[16:02] <seamus_ie> darkblue_B: as far as i know it's pretty simple, there are some good tutorials over at djangoproject.org
[16:02] <ricanelite> any good RSS Readers for Ubuntu?
[16:02] <sk8er> hallo :)
[16:02] <darkblue_B> seamus_ie: looking
[16:02] <thiemster> ricanelite: have you tried any online ones (benefit is multi-computers and work on all operating systems) i use google reader
[16:02] <ricanelite> also should i wait to install ubuntu 7.10 on my notebook which i did have before or should I wait for the version of Ubuntu?
[16:02] <Maximino> ciao
[16:02] <ricanelite> good reader

[16:04] <ricanelite> should wait for the new version of ubuntu to install on my notebook? because i did have ubuntu 7.10 installed on my notebook before
[16:05] <seamus_ie> !opinions > seamus_ie
[16:05] <Lamego> ricanelite, we can't do that choice for you
[16:05] <bartmon> ricanelite: You can upgrade without reinstalling
[16:05] <captainm> ricanelite, that's entirely up to you. I like to do a fresh install once a new version is released but the upgrade process works just fine too
[16:05] <ricanelite> ahh really
[16:05] <ricanelite> ok
[16:06] <ricanelite> because i have windows vista install on my notebook now
[16:06] <sascha_> can someone help me fixing a sound-problem ?
[16:06] <Lamego> I would add,  the upgrade process works just fine *most of the times*
[16:06] <thiemster> ricanelite: for me, ubuntu 8.04 alpha 6 was quite stable so the beta should be even more stable. if you are really impatient, i don't think an upgrade to the beta would be that bad. if you can wait a month, i'd advise you to wait
[16:06] <ricanelite> but i forgot how i installed ubuntu i know i partition my harddrive but forgot how i divided the drive
[16:06] <ricanelite> im waiting for a month
[16:06] <ricanelite> cause im not to great with linux
[16:06] <sascha_> can someone help me fixing a sound-problem ?
[16:06] <ballin> there we go, thanks everybody
[16:07] <ricanelite> as for knowledge
[16:07] <Lamego> thiemster, it is not a good idea to suggest a beta release to a beginner
[16:07] <danand> sascha_ - just tell the channel what prob your having
[16:07] <ballin> anyway to clean this system up a bit more?
[16:07] <ballin> delete some old installed files and what not?
[16:07] <thiemster> lamego: i didn't know he was a beginner
[16:07] <ubuntu-user> i`d like to make use rar files.what i should do?
[16:07] <Lamego> barnie, delete logs ar /var/log
[16:07] <bazhang> remove compiz ;]
[16:07] <bartmon> ballin delete firefox cache.
[16:08] <captainm> ubuntu-user, you want to unpack a rar file?
[16:08] <darkblue_B> seamus_ie: tutorials are thorough on mod_python, but neother mentions the Ubuntu specifics.. if I recall, there were specail tools on UB to make changes to he httpd.conf and such
[16:08] <ubuntu-user> captainm: yes
[16:09] <captainm> ubuntu-user, just go ta Add/Remove and search for rar.
[16:09] <darkblue_B> I expect mod_python will go right in.. but adding this one little line to send to a proxy handler.. makes me concerned
[16:09] <Toznoshio> Q: how can I pipe the result of a shell command into the Ubuntu clipboard?
[16:09] <seamus_ie> darkblue_B: ah ok, my bad, i'm not sure so
[16:09] <seamus_ie> sorry
[16:10] <Lamego> Toznoshio, I am not aware of such utility
[16:11] <Lamego> that seems too unusual to be available

[16:11] <Lamego> ops
[16:12] <ballin> thank you everybody for the previous help
[16:12] <icf7> Is there a CLI torrent client that works similar to wget?
[16:12] <Lamego> jdolan_, try asking on #ubuntu-motu,  you will need to check the packaging guide

[16:27] <icf7> RioMerc: In this case, it should output something. When you just type mount, do you recognize your drive?

Pressing now Ctrl+Alt+F7 displays a console with 4 lines of text starting with 'Reloading' and an active prompt. There are only 6 getty processes. What is the reason that the X windows system moved? Is it pm-utils and resuming from Hibernate?

[16:37] <faileas> cdc ps aux?
[16:37] <Lamego> zedster, most likely because of your resolv.conf
[16:38] <bizkut> alo
[16:38] <bkoch> zedster you can try to see if ifconfig shows the same config
[16:38] <bizkut> i am installing hardy on ibook right now
[16:38] <tvnz> Odd-rationale, http://youtube.com/watch?v=L1D6rqvkQdA maybe u will like this
[16:38] <Lamego> Zeddie, you need to replace your resolv.conf with the one from your live cd, I guess the name servers obtained from the DHCP server
[16:38] <bizkut> i am on livecd
[16:38] <jburd> erUSUL: "error: Network is unreachable" after "Starting basic networking"
[16:38] <Lamego> ops, i meant zedster
[16:38] <RioMerc> Thanks, icf7, seems to have worked without lots of borking. Leaving now :P
[16:38] <bizkut> but i got a problem on partitioning process
[16:39] <zedster> lamego thanks
[16:39] <bizkut> the installer can't see the partitions
[16:39] <Sylphid> hello all, was just wondering if the server flavor of ubuntu was compiled for server optomization or if its just there for long term support?
[16:39] <bizkut> but i can see with sudo fdisk -l
[16:39] <bazhang> Sylphid: the former
[16:39] <bizkut> anyone know why?
[16:39] <Sylphid> bazhang: ty
[16:40] <bazhang> #ubuntu-server is their channel Sylphid ;]
[16:40] <Lamego> Sylphid, the only optimizations are done at the kernel -server- package, there are no other customizations that could be specific to the install cd
[16:40] <bizkut> anyone on powerpc?
[16:40] <slushpupie> I just downloaded the Ubuntu 7.10 desktop cd, and I cant get VMWare (server or player) to boot it, is there some trickI dont know about?
[16:40] <Lamego> you actually can install any of the server packages on a desktop based install
[16:40] <Sylphid> Lamego: understood sry i didnt clarify
[16:41] <pavi> can anybody help ?
[16:41] <cdc> Drawing blanks here but kill 8966 [id of a process] is not killing the open application. Am I missing a command
[16:41] <Sylphid> Lamego: was just trying to determin if the server distro did have the kernel optomizations or not
[16:42] <bazhang> pavi: you have a router between the two computers and the dsl modem? and they both are wired? or there more to this scenario?
[16:43] <cdc> pavi,  You mentioned you have a switch - how many ports is on the switch?
[16:43] <Odd-rationale> tvnz: Yeah. That has hilarious!
[16:43] <bazhang> slushpupie: ubuntu is the guest os? what is the host?
[16:44] <slushpupie> bazhang: Ived tried both winXP and Debian
[16:44] <slushpupie> bazhang: I get to the boot menu, but any choice just freezes there
[16:44] <ubuntu-user> my computer uses dhcp.i`d like to set dns statically.how to do that? my dnses are alwyas changed by network manager
[16:44] <slushpupie> bazhang: if I hit esc at the menu, I can hit enter, it says "Loading" but nothing after that
[16:45] <bazhang> slushpupie: ubuntu as host then? this is vmware server from the repos?
[16:45] <Vadi> Jack_Sparrow: my swap is fixed now, thanks muh
[16:45] <yago> does anyone know how to configure gnat?
[16:45] <wasney> anyone use screenlets and want to help me out...I cant find my problem anywhere

[16:45] <amicrawler> in streamtunner  shoutcast i can no loger choose a listing just a search in stream tunner is there a bug on this yet?
[16:46] <bazhang> slushpupie: not sure how it runs on those systems; might ask in #debian, also check that it is a good burn or just run from the iso and save the cd cost
[16:46] <slushpupie> bazhang: I am just running from the iso
[16:46] <leeping2008> Hi there, I'm trying to print in Evince but I can't seem to add any printers.  Anyone able to help?  I'm not using CUPS, I'm using LPR
[16:47] <icf7> Is there a CLI BitTorrent client that works similar to wget?
[16:47] <bazhang> slushpupie: that is odd; match the md5 sum then? also ask in debian channel
[16:47] <mon^rch> good day all. question: what is the command to use update manager to upgrade to latest distro? (thought is was gksu update-manager -d)
[16:47] <bazhang> icf7: rtorrent is the only one I know of
[16:47] <slushpupie> bazhang: this has nothing to do with debian, same behavior on other os's.  md5 is good
[16:47] <Flannel> icf7: bt[tab][tab] has plenty of options, check the curses versions.  (btdownloadcurses and/or btlaunchmany, for more than one)
[16:47] <Flannel> !upgrade | mon^rch
[16:47] <ubotu> mon^rch: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[16:48] <Flannel> mon^rch: that's correct.  Try putting update-manager -d in quotes
[16:48] <bazhang> slushpupie: well vmware server works great with ubuntu as host; thus my suggestion about asking debian--you are free to do as you wish but I think I am not of much help as I dont run debian
[16:51] <bazhang> mon^rch: you can also just edit your sources list feisty to gutsy for example then refresh and then dist-upgrade
[16:51] <wasney> Anyone use Screenlets? I have a weird problem...When I open the Screenlets-Manager it constantly opens itself, over and over, until I uninstall it.
[16:51] <YouKnowMe> Is there a simple howto out there for setting up softraid with a fresh install? I have the hardware for fakeraid, but I'd like the first time simplicity of softraid..

[17:05] <Elevator_Hazard> ak47 don't you use ./configure then make then make install?
[17:05] <neverblue> Zack1403, then try the nvidia-settings (ensure your using su, as it re-creates your xorg.conf --- which you also want to backup )
[17:05] <^marija^> hiiiiii
[17:06] <Robstafarian> Ak47, 'configure' isn't in your PATH, you mean to use './configure'

[17:24] <Wedhus_Liar> with firewall, DNS and Web Server LAMP
[17:25] <TitoN> like i do on my main pc....when i use all 3 plugs even the mic for output so it must be able to do

[17:28] <TitoN> well my main pc has the pink, green and blue plugs. pink is for mic. but with my creative 5.1 sound system i just change so that the pink becomes an output. so i figure it should be cabable of that on the laptop to
[17:28] <hwilde> Nitramusa, no just follow those links.  use the live cd.  follow the grub boot prompt.
[17:28] <Nitramusa> :/
[17:28] <Nitramusa> the grub boot prompt? Its all command line?
[17:28] <Nitramusa> are u sure it solves what i want?
[17:28] <hwilde> Nitramusa, follow those links they explain how to install grub
[17:28] <Nitramusa> Not just restoring grub, i never had grub before
[17:29] <Nitramusa> they all explain how to restore grub, not how to install from scratch as i see :s
[17:30] <hwilde> Nitramusa, follow the instructions in this link:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[17:30] <Nitramusa> its again about restoring (=recovering)
[17:30] <Nitramusa> If you do not know your boot partition, use find /boot/grub/stage1  <== i dont have ANY stage1 or menu.1st file..
[17:31] <Nitramusa> so that link wont help me too :)
[17:31] <Nitramusa> i need grub installed from scratch u know..
[17:31] <LainIwakura> Can someone help me install a simple program? After 'make', I receive the following error: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60875/
[17:32] <Nitramusa> hwilde, u understand what i mean?
[17:32] <wolfwalker_prime> How do you turn off this flashy compiz in 7.10?
[17:32] <lastelement0> hey all. im trying to burn a music cd with brasero and i use 74 min long cds and i create a playlist up to that limit yet when i try to burn it says i do not have enough room on my disc?
[17:32] <wolfwalker_prime> It's not annoying really, but it's sucking up my ram
[17:32] <Creeture> LainIwakura: It looks like you're missing the development headers. Try aptitude install build-essential
[17:32] <wolfwalker_prime> lastelement0 get gnomebaker or k3b
[17:33] <Creeture> lastelement0: See if you have the 2 second gaps between tracks enabled.
[17:33] <lastelement0> wolfwalker_prime: but they can't handle mp4 files?
[17:33] <wolfwalker_prime> Ah
[17:33] <lastelement0> Creeture: where is that option?
[17:33] <Nitramusa> Can anyone help me, how to install grub from scratch (not only the MBR! with writing new files to the /boot partition etc)
[17:33] <plutarcus> how can i access to the hardware layer trough wine? for example, i have to update the ipod firmware using an emulated itunes, but it doesn't see the ipod connected...how can i solve, if is possibile?
[17:34] <wolfwalker_prime> Two second gap is still on by default?  I thought that would have been so annoying it would have been turned off by now.
[17:34] <Creeture> lastelement0: Just type "sudo aptitude install build-essential" from a command shell.
[17:34] <lastelement0> creeture:done
[17:34] <lastelement0> ** creeture: done
[17:34] <Creeture> lastelement0: Try your make now.
[17:35] <propdude2000> lastelement0: the problem could be that you are making a playlist with 74 min of mp4s, but any music cd has to be encoded in a format that makes bigger files
[17:35]  * Creeture scratches head at propdude2000's comment. Uh, minutes is minutes in this case.
[17:35] <Brna> #ubuntu-hr
[17:35] <hwilde> Nitramusa,  boot into livecd,   mkdir /mnt/root,   mount /dev/xxx? /mnt/root,  chroot /mnt/root /bin/bash,  grub-install /dev/xxx
[17:36]  * wolfwalker_prime scratches his head too.  80 minutes has always worked regardless of format.
[17:36] <nextstep> my wireless connection is locked at 1mb and will not autoadjust to 54 ... anyone have ideas ?
[17:36] <lastelement0> it makes no sense tho because i can do 74 min of mp3s in gnomebaker and its fine. but i have some files that are mp4 that i want on my cd and brasero is the only one that ive come across that recognizes them
[17:36] <hwilde> nextstep, iwconfig eth1 rate 54M
[17:36] <sbox> can anyone tell me if a smb.conf is a smb.conf is an smb.conf, i've got one i've used before but for some reason I dont have write access now, I've set up the user n pass etc
[17:36] <Creeture> nextstep: Get closer to the AP.
[17:36] <Nitramusa> hwilde, i dont get it..where is /mnt/root? How do i specify that its /dev/sda3 because i have multiple partitions!
[17:36] <Nitramusa> can i PM u?
[17:36] <nextstep> hwilde: yea did that first .. no change
[17:36] <nextstep> creeture:  im 5ft from it
[17:37] <SpudDogg> sbox:  what do you mean by that?  you need to use smb.conf to set up your shares
[17:37] <wolfwalker_prime> How do I turn off compiz, which is enabled by default in 7.10 gutsy?
[17:37] <hwilde> nextstep, iwconfig eth1 commit
[17:37] <Creeture> sbox: The smb.conf files are pretty well standard, but the versions of Samba underneath may be different, as could the group memberships and permissions on the filesystem.
[17:37] <aoupi> how do I use F1 in gnome-terminal? if I press it I get the gnome-terminal manual, but I want the application running in the terminal to recieve the F1
[17:37] <LainIwakura> Creeture: Thanks, it seems to have installed now, though with several warning messages: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60880/ How do I now run this little app? Thanks.
[17:37] <danand_> sbox - your old smb.conf may not be compatible with newer versions of samba... :(
[17:37] <Creeture> wolfwalker_prime: System -> Preferences -> Appearance -> Visual Effects -> None
[17:38] <sbox> Creeture: good thinking,  is it chmod x /cxydf/sdaf to make the share read writeable?
[17:38] <cabrioleur> aoupi, ctrl+f1 or alt+f1, or shift+f1, one of them...
[17:38] <nextstep> hwilde:  operation not supported
[17:38] <wolfwalker_prime> Thanks
[17:38] <Ak47> propdude2000 similar  problem here, i typed in ./configure then make it say No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
[17:38] <dabbill> any one in here useing an 8800GT? i cant seem to get any performance. I have tried both manual driver in stall from nVidia website and useing envy. They both detect the card and install the driver, but i cant get any type of game performance out of it.
[17:38] <nextstep> Error for wireless request "Commit changes" (8B00) :
[17:38] <nextstep>     SET failed on device wlan0 ; Operation not supported.
[17:38] <cabrioleur> Ak47, because there is no targets :-)
[17:39] <cabrioleur> Ak47, did you read readme file?
[17:39] <Creeture> sbox: x is executable. For directories, you probably want something like chmod 0775 dir and files 0664 file.
[17:39] <Ak47> cabrioleur i went into the file directly
[17:39] <akaineko> hello, i have a question. is there any way to make opne program to open certain file types ? i want my VLC Player open video as a default video player. is it possible ?
[17:39] <Ak47> cabrioleur folder i meant
[17:39] <aoupi> cabrioleur: no combination worked
[17:39] <Creeture> LainIwakura: ./cursive should work.
[17:40] <sbox> Creeture: 0775 being read/write?
[17:40] <danand_> sbox - you also need to look in your smb.conf file to check shares have read/write permissions
[17:40] <Creeture> sbox: 0775 is read/write/execute by owner, read/write/execute by group, read/execute by world.
[17:40] <hwilde> nextstep, sometimes the wifi cards dont take the settings until a commit.  try ifconfig eth1 down;  ifconfig eth1 up
[17:40] <cabrioleur> Ak47, ?? if you did ./configure and them make, that means your ./configure encountered problems and is not finished.
[17:40] <noodlesgc> akaineko just right click on a file of that type and click properties, there will be a tab where you can choose
[17:41] <gnr> hey i installed ubuntu studio and now when the computer starts it runs in low graphics mode, any ideas whats up?
[17:41] <aoupi> cabrioleur: solved it by disabling in "Edit->Keyboard Shortcuts"
[17:42] <cabrioleur> aoupi, thanks for shearing the solution.
[17:42] <Creeture> sbox: The chmod +xwr stuff is an additive change, meaning it adds write or execute permissions to the file/directory. The 0775 format is absolute, and sets the permissions to exactly what you specify, no matter what they were before.
[17:42] <sbox> Creeture: i shall give it a whirl
[17:43] <grimboy> Hey, I've got a "Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller" and have just switched to the intel driver from the i810 driver so I can use this whole xrandr thing for dual head. I don't particularly need video acceleration but I do need a total resolution wider than 2048px (I want 2560px) so I commented out the modules 'GLcore', 'DRI' and 'glx' and put in "Virtual 2560 1024". However, now when Xorg starts, gnome starts loadin
[17:43] <grimboy> g then suddenly my laptop panel turns a greenish black then a blackish black a few times (the external monitor does nothing), then I get put in low graphics mode. Is what I want possible with xrandr or would I be better off doing it the old (xinerama) way?
[17:43] <cabrioleur> akaineko, right click, properties -> open with
[17:43] <sbox> Creeture: so chmod  0775 /xyz/xyz
[17:43] <LainIwakura> Creeture: TYping in ./cursive just returns a blank line and nothing happens. What should I do now? Thanks.
[17:43] <Creeture> sbox: Try 0755 first, see if it works. It's more restrictive.
[17:43] <cabrioleur> gnr, install nvidia/ati drivers (whatever you have)
[17:44] <Creeture> LainIwakura: How should I know? I have NO idea what cursive is.
[17:44] <sbox> Creeture: but command as above?
[17:44] <Creeture> LainIwakura: You wanted to know how to run it.
[17:44] <Creeture> sbox: Yep.
[17:44] <LainIwakura> Creeture: Okay, thanks.
[17:44] <mcarolan> hi guys, trying to install the hardy beta on a pc, it gets past the splash screen to the point where gdm would normally start and the machine just reboots without displaying an error, is this  a known bug? If not how can I view any errors it produces?
[17:45] <gnr> cabrioleur,  i installed them once, had no problems for 6 motnhs, then i install ubuntu-studio (audio) then i get graphics errors
[17:45] <unop> mcarolan, please go to #ubuntu+1
[17:45] <mcarolan> ok sorry
[17:45] <akaineko> cabrioleur: thanks!
[17:46] <cabrioleur> gnr, open a terminal and type glxinfo (I assume you have nvidia), and one of the top results will be the driver. Make sure you are using nvidia modules, from nvidia corp.
[17:47] <dabbill> any one in here useing an 8800GT? i cant seem to get any performance. I have tried both manual driver in stall from nVidia website and useing envy. They both detect the card and install the driver, but i cant get any type of game performance out of it.
[17:47] <Z03> hello, which package is the command 'play' in ?
[17:47] <gnr> cabrioleur,   Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".

[17:48] <unop> Z03, you can search for that on http://packages.ubuntu.com
[17:48] <Dhaun> Hello, I have a new installation of Ubuntu 7.10 and I'm trying to install ATI drivers for my X1200 via Envy. It installs the driver and asks for a restart. After the restart xserver doesnt load anymore. :S Any idea what should I do?
[17:48] <Z03> unop: thanks
[17:48] <gnr> cabrioleur,  would it help to uninstall ubuntu studio?
[17:48] <noodlesgc> Dhaun what exactly happens when it doesn't load?
[17:49] <Toznoshio> I don't understand the "eth1:avah" entry in my network configuration, I have pastebinned the output of ifconfig at http://paste.stgraber.org/1945
[17:49] <cabrioleur> gnr, no
[17:49] <Dhaun> noodlesgc, the screen remains black
[17:49] <hwilde> !find play gutsy | Z03
[17:49] <Dhaun> and it's been like that for 10 minutes

[17:49] <Z03> hwilde: cheers :)
[17:49] <hwilde> ubotu is to thank lol

[17:49] <jorje_villafan> I want to get an exernal hard drive for all my music and video. Will amorak be able to read from an external? Also, will I be able to download stuff straight to it?
[17:50] <Z03> hwilde: I have never thankeda bot before.. but there's a first time to everything, thanks ubotu lol
[17:50] <Z03> thanked*
[17:50] <xica> ola
[17:50] <Z03> thanked a*
[17:50] <cabrioleur> gnr, "gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" then find your video driver, and change it from nv to nvidia.
[17:50] <Z03> sorry not my best typing day
[17:50] <noodlesgc> Dhaun boot into recovery mode and type: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[17:51] <sbox_> Creeture: no such luck
[17:51] <danand_> !info play | Z03
[17:51] <ubotu> z03: Package play does not exist in gutsy
[17:51] <xica> ola
[17:51] <danand_> bah!
[17:51] <sbox_> i've had this exact same set up prior to reinstall with the same samba i'm sure
[17:51] <noodlesgc> Toznoshio your computer makes a virtual interface when it cant get one from the DNS
[17:51] <Dhaun> noodlesgc, what should I do after that?
[17:52] <noodlesgc> Dhaun reboot and it should work
[17:52] <gnr> done cabrioleur
[17:52] <Dhaun> Yeah but should I use vesa or ati?
[17:52] <cabrioleur> gnr, restart your X's now.
[17:52] <Dhaun> in the xorg configuration
[17:52] <poseidon> I installed hardy heron, and my internet connection worked great, but when I went to reboot it didn't even give me the option to enable wireless networks, nor did it give me the option to manually edit my wireless networks.  however if I went to admin->network info (I think it was that) it showed me the preveus network I used to connect to the interenet.
[17:52] <b33r> Hello how can I resize my ntfs partion on ubuntu?
[17:52] <Toznoshio> Q: I have two instances of Yahoo Messenger running in Ubuntu - one of them is installed on top of CrossOver, and the other one is running inside a VirtualBox Windows XP machine, the first one doesn't connect, the second one does - why is the one running on top of CrossOver not able to connect?
[17:53] <potski>  /msg ubotu etiquette
[17:53] <potski> woops
[17:53] <danand_> b33r - are you using the live cd?
[17:53] <noodlesgc> Dhaun ati
[17:53] <Z03> danand_: lol thanks anyways
[17:53] <b33r> danand_, no
[17:53] <adamb> Anyone have an idea if there is a way to add accounts remotely to google apps mail?
[17:53] <Dhaun> noodlesgc, thanks a lot. I'll try that out :]
[17:53] <b33r> danand_, I want to resize my ntfs that has vista installed and make room for xp
[17:54] <unop> adamb, no, they have anti-bot filters -- only humans can create accounts, it seems
[17:54] <cabrioleur> b33r, you need ntfsprogs packages, as well as ntfs-3g (I think), and you can do it in gparted.
[17:54] <danand_> b33r - sudo apt-get install ntfsprogs . That should allow gparted to resize ntfs partitions
[17:54] <danand_> :)
[17:54] <adamb> unop: research it already I see huh?
[17:54] <b33r> ok thanks and is it risky?
[17:55] <danand_> b33r - as always back up first... but i had no problems :)
[17:55] <unop> adamb, not really, i just know it's not scriptable
[17:55] <cabrioleur> b33r, partition manipulation has always a slight risk. Backup recommended. I never lost any data, but you never know.
[17:55] <potski> Hi,If i connect to Ubuntu using a thin client, is it possible to have the Normal visual effects turned on , or do I have to stick with none ?
[17:55] <b33r> ok hopefully it wont screw up thank you guys =)
[17:55] <tripps> i really wish compiz config had an undo feature since i find some unintended behavior hours later to some setting I changed and haven't a clue what it was . . . .
[17:55] <cabrioleur> b33r, good luck
[17:55] <hwilde> potski, which thin client
[17:56] <potski> hwilde, can I send you a link, I dont really know, im a noob !
[17:56] <cyka> yo
[17:56] <cyka> questioon
[17:57] <adamb> unop; I think preimere edition has the option.
[17:57] <cyka> where do u add/remove/disqble network security
[17:57] <hwilde> potski, do some googling and come back.  or just try it and see
[17:57] <ompaul> cyka, iptables or firestarter
[17:57] <noodlesgc> cyka you like a firewall?
[17:57] <neopsyche> hi all.. my top bar in gnome is stuck on the right hand side of the screen somehow.. how do i put it back to the top?
[17:58] <nextstep> uugh ... wireless on ubuntu makes me sad
[17:58] <danand_> neopsyche - drag it?
[17:58] <cyka> i dunno
[17:58] <cabrioleur> neopsyche, drug and drop :-)
[17:58] <ompaul> neopsyche, drag it if it has too many icons delete them and add them back on the top
[17:58] <hwilde> nextstep, buy a real card lol
[17:58] <cyka> just trying to make a XP home machine access my ubuntu maschine
[17:58] <akaineko> i have a question, how to stop ubuntu from freezing up randomly ? it just freezes and only mouse is moving.
[17:58] <cyka> i cxab access ms shie ok
[17:58] <cyka> cxab = can
[17:59] <noodlesgc> cyka you mean create shared folders?
[17:59] <potski> I've googled it for the last 2 hours, and posted a question in alt.os.linux.ubuntu but no luck, i think its called LTSP
[17:59] <cyka> i've done that
[17:59] <cyka> but it installed some samba stuff
[17:59] <cyka> i've got it all shared
[17:59] <Z03> hwilde: whats a good wireless card that is supported by linux and can be put into monitor mode ?
[17:59] <cyka> i can access it through the network this side

[18:00] <Jaffarkelshac> hello everyone
[18:00] <cyka> ta  noodlesgc
[18:00] <hwilde> Z03, ask in #madwifi  they know all about it.  but the prism chipset is pretty good.
[18:01] <neopsyche> ompaul, thanks .. had too many icons
[18:01] <cabrioleur> nextstep, yes, but it's still unstable. Proprietary hell.
[18:01] <noodlesgc> nextstep it is hard since broadcom drivers are proprietary
[18:01] <danand_> cyka - have you enabled the user and set a password on your samba/ubuntu box? Try running sudo smbpasswd <username> and then smbpasswd -e <username>
[18:01] <Jaffarkelshac> i am trying to run ubuntu on my laptop, i get a bios bug ..... and it loads to a black screen. I have not been able to get it working
[18:01] <Jaffarkelshac> any suggestions
[18:01] <Dad_> any1 know a proxy site that isnt blocked by websense?
[18:02] <noodlesgc> Jaffarkelshac what is the error message?
[18:02] <danand_> cyka - that first command should be smbpasswd -a <username>
[18:02] <tripps> i have disabled desktop cube and all other desktop cube plugins in compiz manager yet there is still a cube I can rotate. what is providing this?
[18:02] <cabrioleur> Jaffarkelshac, bios bug should be just a warning, are you using ati graphic card?
[18:02] <gnr> cabrioleur,  that helped, graphics interface works a little better, although wireless access and compiz do not. Any idea what to do next?

[18:04] <unop__> !away | Creeture
[18:04] <ubotu> Creeture: You should avoid changing your nick in a busy channel like #ubuntu - it causes unrequired scrolling which is unfair to new users.  (Please set your preferred nick in your client's settings instead.)  The same goes for using noisy away messages; use the command "/away <reason>" to set your client away silently.  See also «/msg ubotu Guidelines»
[18:04] <hwilde> nebnav, yes I do
[18:04] <nebnav> hwilde: how? can point me to docs.

[18:05] <akaineko> i have a question, how to stop ubuntu from freezing up randomly ? it just freezes and only mouse is moving.
[18:05] <cabrioleur> Jaffarkelshac, bios bug will not interupt your login. Do you have an ati card?
[18:05] <lolgfx> Anyone know if its possible to load a pre-existing installation of vista with vmware/virtualbox?
[18:05] <cabrioleur> gnr, do the command "sudo lspci -vv" and paste it in the pastbin.
[18:05] <Creeture> unop__: Thanks for the message, but you realize that the message from ubotu was about 4 times as much scroll as my nick change?
[18:05] <gnr> cabrioleur,  also when i did gksudo nvidia-settings i got You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server.
[18:05] <u235> lolgfx, like p2v?
[18:05] <Jaffarkelshac> its a laptop, i have no idea if it is ati, never checked.
[18:05] <danand_> akaineko - do you have an nvidia card and nvidia modules/drivers installed?
[18:05] <unop__> Creeture, just don't change your nick in the channel - why fight that?
[18:06] <cabrioleur> gnr, then you are not using nvidia, still. we need to fix it first.

[18:07] <gnr> http://pastebin.com/m73de54e3, i cant check drivers as it gives me this "You need to install the package
[18:07] <gnr>   linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22-14-rt
[18:07] <gnr> "
[18:07] <u235> lolgfx, i mean physical to virtual.  I've never tried it with vista, I was more curious about what you wanted to do really :)
[18:07] <gnr> that was for you cabrioleur  btw :p
[18:08] <b33r> cabrioleur, I got an error while resizing =o
[18:08] <cabrioleur> Dhaun, FB is a frame buffer and it gives better resolution when you are booting. That's why a blank screen.
[18:08] <sbox_> Creeture: i actually changed it to 0777 which allowed me to write within the folder specified, however i cannot edit folders within that folder
[18:08] <lolgfx> u235, I have a physical vista installation on this comp and I want to run it inside my ubuntu installation so I don't have to switch to do different things
[18:08] <cabrioleur> b33r, make sure it's unmounted when you are trying to do that.
[18:08] <ra21vi> hi ,
[18:09] <b33r> it's unmounted
[18:09] <Creeture> sbox_: That means that you only changed the top folder. If you want a recursive chmod, it's chmod -R blah...
[18:09] <cabrioleur> gnr, "sudo apt-get linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22-14-rt"
[18:09] <Creeture> sbox_: You should really look at what permissions you need there though before blindly changing permissions.
[18:09] <cabrioleur> b33r, are you using live cd or your ubuntu boot?
[18:09] <ra21vi> I want to create a secure connection between comp A<-->C through server B which will be hosting *ssh server*, using port forward
[18:09] <ra21vi> please guide me
[18:09] <b33r> ubuntu boot
[18:09] <fevel> hey guys
[18:09] <storm> i have a problem installing ubuntu, tryed both cd's tryed pci=noacpi after the menu screen goes away monitor clicks goes orange and 2 led's caps lock and the one on the right just flash and nothing happens, can anyone help me? thanks
[18:09] <Gullstad> How do I extract rar-files to a directory. Got "unrar" package.
[18:09] <u235> lolgfx, i'm not familiar with virtualbox, but i believe you can do a p2v conversion of sorts regarding the partition vista lives on into a vmware image.  i don't know if there are free tools for this though...
[18:10] <Creeture> Gullstad: rar x file.rar
[18:10] <fevel> whats a good ide for programming in python fast and easy?
[18:10] <unop__> Gullstad, man unrar -- unrar file.rar
[18:10] <gnr> cabrioleur,  i assume there needs to be an "install" in there
[18:10] <cyka> argh!!!
[18:10] <lolgfx> u235, I'll keep looking, thanks :)
[18:10] <cyka> i keep getting failed top modify passwd
[18:10] <cabrioleur> gnr, you are right :-)
[18:10] <ra21vi> fevel: imho use eclipse pydev or openkomodo
[18:10] <gnr> you need a medal btw buddy :p
[18:11] <sbox_> Creeture: works, awsome.. basically i want full read / write access on that folder for root access
[18:11] <gnr> did you get the pastebin link cab?
[18:11] <u235> lolgfx, no problem, i'm sure others here could probably help you much more :)
[18:11] <danand_> cyka - you might need to sudo smbpasswd -a <username>
[18:11] <ra21vi> but others are too good, justi like them
[18:11] <cyka> did that
[18:11] <fevel> ra21vi,  thanks for the tips...ill take a look at them
[18:11] <storm> i have a problem installing ubuntu, tryed both cd's tryed pci=noacpi after the menu screen goes away monitor clicks goes orange and 2 led's caps lock and the one on the right just flash and nothing happens, can anyone help me? thanks
[18:11] <danand_> cyka - no joy?
[18:11] <cabrioleur> Dhaun, if it will not boot after waiting about 3,4 minutes, restart the computer and add option noacpi acpi=off.
[18:11] <orkun> hey there - evolution seems to always wanna use the first of my three accounts to send email via smtp - regardless which from setting i choose while composing mail. help

[18:12] <cyka> sorry for spam
[18:12] <b33r> cabrioleur, http://paste.ubuntu.com/6043/
[18:12] <ra21vi> anyone suggest me how to port forwarding using sshd, or suggest a channel'
[18:12] <cyka> bnut thats what i get danand_
[18:12] <cabrioleur> Dhaun, no, as a boot option when you are starting grub.
[18:12] <unop__> ra21vi, what do you mean?
[18:12] <hwilde> cyka, type the passwords slower and more carefully
[18:12] <cyka> i have tried that
[18:12] <cyka> :P
[18:12] <danand_> :)
[18:12] <cyka> wahts the harm in trying a gain tho
[18:12] <Dhaun> cabriouleur, thank you, I'll try that :)
[18:13] <hwilde> cyka, you have to type them the same twice try real hard
[18:13] <unop__> ra21vi, ssh -L <listenPort>:host:<TargetPort> user@host
[18:13] <Creeture> ra21vi: It's not a hard one. ssh -L <local port number>:<host reachable by ssh server>:<remote port number on that host> username@remote
[18:13] <co0lingFir4> how can i determin the HW id of a fingerprint reader?
[18:13] <BrightEyes`> i ran fsck and found that my fat32 boot sector its different than its backup.how can i fix that?
[18:13] <fevel> ra21vi, which one do you use most??  openkomodo or eclipse
[18:13] <cabrioleur> b33r, it's saying that the new size is the same as the old one :-) You need to design a new size for it.
[18:13] <ra21vi> unop__: i want to expose the service cvsnt at port 2401 on server A to internet, so i want a ssh proxy type at server B (hosting ssh) which would be exposed to internet as a gateway for cvs access
[18:13] <danand_> co0lingFir4 - lspci -vvv ?
[18:13] <b33r> cabrioleur, how? :S
[18:13] <cyka> failed to modify
[18:13] <ra21vi> fevel: eclipseIDE+pydev
[18:13] <cyka> and theres no way in hell i got that wrong
[18:14] <neutrinomass> I've got the weirdest problem: Microphones don't work, but using a headphone as a microphone works. Any ideas ?
[18:14] <fevel> ra21vi, ok
[18:14] <co0lingFir4> danand: thx
[18:14] <danand_> co0lingFir4 - np
[18:14] <cabrioleur> b33r, how big is the partition, and how you want to change it?
[18:14] <BobSapp> neutrinomass: maybe your soundcard arrangement expects a stereo microphone?
[18:14] <orkun> neutrinomass, there is no real difference between a headphone and i microphone
[18:14] <unop__> ra21vi,  yea, setup a tunnel as shown above
[18:14] <BobSapp> normal mics are mono arent they?
[18:14] <co0lingFir4> does any1 know a tutorial/howto for fprint?
[18:14] <hwilde> headphone is an output device,  microphone is an input device.
[18:14] <hwilde> they are opposite
[18:14] <neutrinomass> orkun: I know ! That's why it's weird!
[18:14] <orkun> both are physically same - but have different sizes in parts etc for better quality
[18:15] <hwilde> co0lingFir4, google it
[18:15] <Creeture> co0lingFir4: man sprintf
[18:15] <neutrinomass> BobSapp: Actually, that's a good idea - I think my soundcard is a bit weird, let me check
[18:15] <b33r> cabrioleur, the partition is 110.88 GB, 61GB used and I want to free 25GB for xp
[18:15] <ra21vi> unop__: but how the server B (which i am pointing at client side) will forward the traffic to A hosting cvsnt
[18:15] <orkun> so it simply cannot be :) your microphones have to be broken
[18:15] <neutrinomass> orkun: That's what I thought. So I took it back to the shop and got a different one :p
[18:15] <ra21vi> Creeture: ^
[18:15] <co0lingFir4> Creeture: fprint not printf
[18:15] <Impy> Hi i have a my computer dual booting vista and ubuntu on 1harddrive i want to remove vista completely how would i go about doing that?
[18:16] <hwilde> Impy, use gparted to reformat the vista partition to ext3 :)
[18:16] <unop__> ra21vi, on server B -- issue this command   ssh -L <cvsport>:serverA:<cvsport> user@serverA
[18:16] <neutrinomass> orkun: (actually paid the difference for a webcam that came with a mic/headphones because I needed a webcam anyway and they didn't bother to check whether the microphone actually works)
[18:16] <Impy> okay cheers hwilde will look for that now :D
[18:16] <BobSapp> headphones have 3 connections L+,R+,-ve a MONO microphone has +ve -ve. Although, most sound ports can actually detect the kind of input they are getting these days.
[18:16] <gnr> cabrioleur,  thanks, enabled drivers now, but i have no sound (this error occured when i first installed the laptop. and i cant rmember how i fixed it) its the laptop speakers dont work
[18:16] <lolgfx> I'm not sure if it'd make sense to use p2v
[18:16] <hwilde> !gparted | Impy
[18:16] <ubotu> Impy: GParted is a !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted-livecd.tuxfamily.org/
[18:16] <ra21vi> Impy: i never had that experince, but you can delete / format that partition, then check the MBR or reinstall grub into it.. please google, or see others advice
[18:16] <cabrioleur> gnr, run "sudo lspci" and find what card you have.
[18:17] <hwilde> Impy, if you're already in ubuntu, just run   sudo gparted     then pick the ntfs partition, delete it, create an ext3 one there, and it will reformat.  bam no more vista
[18:17] <dabbill> any one in here useing an 8800GT? i cant seem to get any performance. I have tried both manual driver in stall from nVidia website and useing envy. They both detect the card and install the driver, but i cant get any type of game performance out of it.
[18:17] <BobSapp> also if i remember correctly, contacts are arranged on a stereo jack, such that if you plug it into a mono port, it would behave the same as a mic
[18:17] <neutrinomass> BobSapp: I know have a mono headphone and microphone ( only one "headphone" , it came with the webcam )
[18:17] <gnr> wireless works now cabrioleur
[18:17] <unop__> ra21vi, if you are asking how it is forwarded exactly -- ssh opens a listening socket and forwards traffic destined for that socket onto the remote socket
[18:17] <zubwolf> hi there
[18:17] <Jaffarkelshac> does anyone have problems running ubuntu live on fujitsu seimens laptops (amilo li 1705) everything is fine and then nothing at where the login is supposed to be
[18:17] <Impy> hwilde will that make it so ubuntu has all the drive then? :D
[18:17] <neutrinomass> BobSapp: And the leads are the same so that sort of rules out a mono/stereo issue
[18:17] <hwilde> dabbill, my 8600gts is blazing fast.   did you try  "sudo nvidia-settings"
[18:17] <BobSapp> so its down to the actual mic?
[18:17] <cabrioleur> gnr, that's good.
[18:17] <hwilde> Impy, you will have two partitions but yeah ubuntu will mount that other one
[18:18] <Impy> is there anyway to delete that partition so there's just one?
[18:18] <Dhaun> cabrioleur, sorry, but I can't find the grub boot options. Could you please tell me where to find em or what command should I use for the noacpi acpi=off option?
[18:18] <hwilde> Impy, if you want you could try to delete the ntfs partition, and then just resize your existing ext3 to the whole drive
[18:18] <neutrinomass> BobSapp: I don't know, I'm very confused. It's quite unlikely that both the mics I've bought don't work - sorry, I know I'm not being helpful but I'm totally at a loss myself
[18:18] <dabbill> hwilde, seems every thing is setup correctly in there
[18:18] <gnr>  Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection (rev 02)
[18:18] <gnr>  cab
[18:18] <hwilde> Dhaun, /boot/grub/menu.lst
[18:18] <mttr> is there an apt-get gnome 2.22 for 7.10 yet
[18:18] <Dhaun> thank you :]
[18:18] <ra21vi> unop__: sorry , i am little messed into this
[18:18] <BobSapp> neutrinomass: you should try them out on something else that records, like a sound system
[18:18] <Impy> hwilde gparted can do all this yeah? i'll play around with it now :)
[18:19] <hwilde> dabbill, I dunno but I run dual widescreens with my 8600gts and it's super high fps
[18:19] <BobSapp> pc soundcards are quite complex these days
[18:19] <neutrinomass> BobSapp: The leads look the same but alsarecord picks up the headphones (when used as a microphone obviously) but doens't pick up the actual mic
[18:19] <Gullstad> Hello. How can I burn an *.img file to a DVD in terminal?
[18:19] <bullgard4> [Epiphany] I forgot how to add a preferred link entry in the 5th line (just below the address line).
[18:19] <hwilde> Impy, gparted is your friend.  just make sure you know which partition is which
[18:19] <Impy> k :)
[18:19] <hwilde> Impy, sudo fdisk -l     will help
[18:19] <cabrioleur> Dhaun, when you are on the line with the boot option "Ubuntu something...." just start typing.
[18:19] <dabbill> hwilde, i am getting like 15fps in games :(
[18:19] <b33r> can anyone tell me why am I getting this error? http://paste.ubuntu.com/6043/
[18:19] <danand_> Impy - you should be able just to delete that partition and move/resize your GNU/linux partitions to take up the free space - Back up important data first though
[18:19] <Impy> i can't believe how bad vista is :/
[18:19] <Impy> it's so slow :o
[18:19] <zubwolf> i|m looking for a programm which allows me to restore an accidental deleted partition-table
[18:19] <BobSapp> lol vista
[18:19] <zubwolf> for ubuntu
[18:19] <lolgfx> u235, Aha! I found what I needed. VMWare can boot from a physical partition :)
[18:19] <hwilde> !windows | Impy
[18:19] <ubotu> Impy: For discussion and help with Microsoft Windows, please visit ##windows. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and /msg ubotu equivalents
[18:20] <unop__> ra21vi, i don't understand what you mean by that .
[18:20] <zubwolf> i dont have backups from the superblocks for that harddriver
[18:20] <hwilde> aww ubotu used to say go to a mental health practitioner
[18:20] <fluxy> hi - I am trying to restore packages from an iso using aptoncd, but each time I click on load(iso) it crashes. any ideas please?
[18:20] <Impy> lol
[18:20] <Impy> i was foolish to even try vista
[18:20] <Impy> never again =]
[18:20] <bennij> vista is a rip off of mac
[18:20] <BobSapp> zubwolf: if you remember the exact layout of the partitions, just setting up the partitions WITHOUT formatting would work
[18:21] <BobSapp> I have hey vista is a great operating systems
[18:21] <Piero_Scaruffi> bennij:  humans are a rip off monkeys
[18:21] <Impy> does gparted always take a while scanning devices?
[18:21] <balle> i cant gain access to my cellphone, i have plugged it in as an USB key, but it will not auto detect, how do i maually detect it so i can transfer files to it?
[18:21] <cabrioleur> gnr, you said this one works, right? What's the sound card?
[18:21] <Piero_Scaruffi> whats your point bennij D:
[18:21] <BobSapp> Before windows vista, having 2gb of ram was VERY EXPENSIVE
[18:21] <BobSapp> now thats standard.
[18:21] <gnr> oops my bad, Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller
[18:21] <zubwolf> BobSapp: i dont remember the whole partition table
[18:21] <hwilde> Impy, gparted won't be able to resize the partition you're running on.  use the livecd if you wnat to do that
[18:21] <neutrinomass> BobSapp: Thanks for helping. Something dodgy is going on though ... :-/
[18:21] <peter`> Hi, i have following problem: we i press alt+F2, i see only black screen. i checked with ps - tty1-6 are running. How can cope this?
[18:22] <BobSapp> yw
[18:22] <vlt> Hello. What am I doing wrong when `dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg` only lets me setup kbd settings but not video card?
[18:22] <co0lingFir4> how do i determine which fingerprint reader i'm using?
[18:22] <ra21vi> unop__: say server [A]:2401 (windows 2000) serving cvs, but not accessible by outside network due to firewall, now server [B]:2401 is the access point for remote clients, server [B]2401 would forward traffic to server [A]:2401 , now in TortoiseCVS, there is option to connect using :ext: or :ssh:, but port option only availale in GUI when using :ext:, so now please tell me what to do at server [B] to accept cvs connections at port 2401
[18:22] <ra21vi> unop__: on server B -- issue this command   ssh -L <cvsport>:serverA:<cvsport> user@serverA <<this one
[18:22] <balle> i cant gain access to my cellphone, i have plugged it in as an USB key, but it will not auto detect, how do i maually detect it so i can transfer files to it?
[18:22] <BobSapp> Does anyone have any ideas as to what is causeing this "Locking assertion failure.  Backtrace:" message in ubuntu?
[18:23] <hwilde> balle, type in "dmesg"   does it recognize the device?  disconnect and reconnect and type dmesg again
[18:23] <vogti> hey. is it possible to create a shortcut to open a virtualbox virtualmachine directly?
[18:23] <sharadg> hi all, I tried the Ubuntu hardy heron on my old system and i find my system slow.I then installed xubuntu-desktop. How can I remove the gnome-desktop ?
[18:23] <FeroX> hi, I'm trying to install a pci wireless card, model is dwl-520m
[18:24] <hwilde> sharadg, sudo apt-get remove --purge gnome-desktop      but I don't think you really want to do that!
[18:24] <gnr> cabrioleur,  its quite a common error with that card, but i cant make sense of any of the help on forums etc. iirc i changed 2 lines in asla base and it worked?
[18:24] <balle> hwilde: and i have reconnected a couple of times
[18:24] <FeroX> I used  ndiswrapper
[18:24] <sharadg> hwilde, can you tell me some reasons ?
[18:24] <FeroX> now I think that the correct driver has been installed
[18:25] <hwilde> sharadg, it will probably uninstall a lot of other stuff, and if you select xubuntu then gnome is no longer running so you're only saving diskspace
[18:25] <unop_> ra21vi,  (incase you didnt already get this) it's quite simple --  ssh -L 2401:serverA:2401 user@serverA   -- the manual page has more if you are still unclear
[18:25] <balle> i cant gain access to my cellphone, i have plugged it in as an USB key, but it will not auto detect, how do i maually detect it so i can transfer files to it?
[18:25] <b33r> can anyone tell me why am I getting this error when I'm trying to resize a partition with gparted? http://paste.ubuntu.com/6043/
[18:25] <FeroX> because ubuntu says so ferox@QU4K3:~$ sudo ndiswrapper -l
[18:25] <FeroX> net5513 : driver installed
[18:25] <FeroX>         device (168C:0020) present
[18:25] <FeroX> ""
[18:25] <cyka> danand_: ta dude for your helps
[18:25] <unop_> balle, fdisk -l  to list the usb partition -- and "mount" to mount it
[18:25] <cyka> :D
[18:25] <cyka> done
[18:26] <FeroX> but in network administration there is no wireless card
[18:26] <co0lingFir4> how can i determine the fingerprint reader im using???
[18:26] <FeroX> any idea?
[18:26] <danand_> cyka - np :D
[18:26] <sharadg> hwilde, I am using most of the gnome -stuff like terminal etc , so internally does that load gnome
[18:26] <sharadg> I mean gnome-terminal
[18:26] <ra21vi> unop_: sorry, but I read many tutorials, still unclear, like why I need user@serverA, since server A has no such ssh server running..
[18:26] <balle> unop_: does my phone run linux?
[18:27] <danand_> b33r - are you using the live cd to do this?
[18:27] <b33r> no
[18:27] <unop_> ra21vi, ok, well, to use an ssh tunnel -- you need an ssh server running on serverA
[18:27] <balle> unop_: it's not there the smallest size is round 9 gigs, and my phone is only round 2
[18:27] <ra21vi> unop_: and if user@serverA is the cvs username, then it is restricting to the single uiser
[18:27] <unop_> balle, i dunno what your phone runs ..
[18:27] <sidewalk> how do i change the font color in gnome panel?
[18:27] <bullgard4> [Epiphany] I forgot how to add a preferred link entry in the 5th line (just below the address line).
[18:28] <ra21vi> unop_: there is no way to use a ssh server as proxy [ i.e. B] inbetween server A and remote client C
[18:28] <danand_> b33r - you need to use the live cd :) - you can't move partitions that are mounted!
[18:28] <ra21vi> ??
[18:28] <sharadg> I have a xubuntu alternate cd . How can I install it in a running Hardy install ? My bios doesn't boot from it .
[18:28] <b33r> danand_, I unmounted it first
[18:28] <b33r> =/
[18:28] <HellTiger> hi all
[18:28] <sharadg> the xubuntu is 7.10
[18:28] <unop_> ra21vi,  user@serverA denotes user as a system user -- it has nothing to do with CVS whatsoever, infact you dont need to worry about accounts in CVS
[18:28] <HellTiger> can i add debian backports http://www.backports.org   to ubunut?!
[18:28] <danand_> b33r - hmmm.. k
[18:28] <FeroX> sharadg: try nolapic option for boot
[18:28] <b33r> =(
[18:28] <cabrioleur> gnr, but what is you sound card again? and what laptop?
[18:29] <unop_> ra21vi, you can use SSH as a proxy -- but the destination host needs to run a SSH server so you can ssh into it
[18:29] <noodlesgc> HellTiger probably a bad idea
[18:29] <ra21vi> unop_: i think somethign is unclear, I want secure connection between server B and client C
[18:29] <nebnav> can someone help me? i am connected over an ethernet cable how can i share my connection between my computer and another over a modem line.
[18:29] <HellTiger> noodlesgc: why is that so
[18:30] <maverick> hi all
[18:30] <ra21vi> unop_: and the connection needed is between server A and client C
[18:30] <unop_> ra21vi, ssh does not do insecure connections
[18:30] <ra21vi> unop_: i just need to implememt linux ssh server, where A to B would be simple insecure while B to C would be encrypted
[18:30] <noodlesgc> HellTiger because a system critical package could get replaced by one that does not work right with ubuntu
[18:30] <HellTiger> ok thanks
[18:31] <stupendo44> I'm trying to set up my Sierra Wireless 881U USB Modem to connect to AT&T Wireless internet using the guide at http://www.sierrawireless.com/faq/ShowFAQ.aspx?ID=1077. I tried running the patch, but it can't find the file to patch.
[18:31] <hwilde> ra21vi, can you ssh from AtoB and BtoC ?
[18:31] <unop_> ra21vi, you are simple confusing yourself -- take it as it is from me -- run the command and you have what you need -- if you are still unhappy, please read the ssh manpage
[18:31] <danand_> b33r - :( not sure about that one... could try qtparted :)
[18:31] <Dopam3> has anyone upgraded to pidgin 2.4.0?  i compiled it from source then removed the pidgin packed with ubuntu and now pidgin won't launch
[18:31] <ra21vi> unop_: sorry if my inability to understand the solution is making you crazy,.. :) i am sorry
[18:31] <b33r> danand_, what's that? :o
[18:31] <gnr> dell vostro 1400 - Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio cabrioleur
[18:31] <Lunar_Lamp> !java
[18:31] <ubotu> To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository (in !Backports for !Edgy)
[18:32] <noodlesgc> Dopam3 just make uninstall then reinstall from the repository
[18:32] <Zack1403> Hey all i cant remember who helped me with nvidia stuff earlier but all worked out ok so just wanted to say you guys rock! :)
[18:32] <mariagc> ee?
[18:32] <ra21vi> hwilde: let me explain the scenario..
[18:32] <Dopam3> the repository isn't upgraded to 2.4.0 i dont think
[18:32] <hwilde> ra21vi, oh I get it.   can you ssh from AtoB and from BtoC ?
[18:32] <mttr> Has anyone install gnome 2.22 on 7.10 yet
[18:32] <Dopam3> the old one crashes on file trasnfers
[18:32] <danand_> b33r - another GUI partition editor... some would say its a little better that gparted. I've always been ok with GParted though...
[18:33] <noodlesgc> Dopam3 do you absolutely have to have the new pidgin?
[18:33] <unop_> ra21vi, you need to understand what an ssh tunnel is and what it does -- it opens a listening socket on the localhost and forwards connections to that socket onto the destination socket -- no users, passwords, other settings are necessary on the localhost, the remote host takes care of that
[18:33] <danand_> !info qtparted | b33r
[18:33] <ubotu> b33r: qtparted (source: qtparted): A parted frontend using QT. In component main, is optional. Version 0.4.5-2ubuntu12 (gutsy), package size 206 kB, installed size 720 kB
[18:33] <ra21vi> hwilde: I can ssh into B from A and C as well, as B is the ssh server
[18:33] <Dopam3> yes, file transfers are broke in 2.2.1 or w/e
[18:33] <sharadg> hwilde,  sudo apt-get remove gnome-desktop ->  Couldn't find package gnome-desktop
[18:33] <Dhaun> cabrioleur, I added the noacpi command in the kernel "...." ro quiet splash line and tried to boot and it still doesn't seem to work :|
[18:33] <dabbill> When i did sudo nvidia-settings i get http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60888/
[18:33] <hwilde> ra21vi, so then your answer is no.   to do what you want, you need to ssh from AtoB , then BtoC
[18:33] <mariagc> es que nadie abla español??
[18:33] <noodlesgc> !es
[18:33] <ubotu> 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.
[18:34] <mariagc> ok
[18:34] <ra21vi> hwilde: :(
[18:34] <hwilde> sharadg, just try gnome
[18:34] <ir1> Hi, i have a strange problem with mldonkey in ubuntu 7.10. The init script is not running, but mlnet run for home user does work.
[18:34] <unop_> ra21vi, but A needs a ssh server as it is the destination for the tunnel in this case
[18:34] <hwilde> ra21vi, but there are plenty of other ways... what do you really want to do (what is the problem)
[18:34] <sharadg> hwilde, no such package
[18:34] <hwilde> sharadg, why do you want to uninstall it anyways just leave it alone :)
[18:35] <cabrioleur> gnr, try "options snd-hda-intel model=5stack"
[18:35] <noodlesgc> ir1 i thought the network that mldonkey uses got sued
[18:35] <ra21vi> hwilde: actually there is a cvs server which needs to be open to internet so people/employee abroad can access that without configuring th VPN
[18:35] <sharadg> my system is terribly slow. it doesn;t behave like a machine with 256 ram
[18:35] <sburwood> is there a reason that with Ubuntu 7.10, libxine1 asks me for a dependency of libxine1 when I try to install libxine1?
[18:35] <cabrioleur> Dhaun, how long do you wait?
[18:35] <erUSUL> noodlesgc: edonkey ?
[18:35] <lastelement0> why does brasero not burn audio cds even if my playlist is the proper length?
[18:35] <noodlesgc> yes
[18:35] <Dhaun> cabrioleur, about 5 minutes
[18:35] <hwilde> ra21vi, then you need a router and a firewall
[18:35] <ra21vi> sharadg:  unop_ : and the cvsnt server on windows2000 is only supporting pserver
[18:36] <Dopam3> i did ./configure, make, and then sudo make install in pidgin, is there a special way i launch it now?
[18:36] <erUSUL> noodlesgc: well my mldonkey (custom install not packaged version) works fine
[18:36] <noodlesgc> lastelement0 that happened to me once, so I use gnome-baker and k3b
[18:36] <lastelement0> noodlesgc: do either of them support mp4?
[18:36] <hwilde> Dopam3, make install   installs it as the running version
[18:36] <ra21vi> hwilde: and I have exposed a linux system running sshd on internet, just the ssh service to internet
[18:36] <noodlesgc> lastelement0 i dont know
[18:36] <cabrioleur> Dhaun, the only thing that's left is "noapic nolapic pnpbios=off" option. Do not restart as long as hd light is flashing. It might be doing fsck after hard reset.
[18:36] <sburwood> of course, I don't have DSL at the house, so I download each package
[18:36] <cabrioleur> Dhaun, you will not see the boot splash.
[18:36] <Melch> anyone know where I can find mupen64
[18:37] <ra21vi> hwilde: now I was wondering if people abroad can access the Intranet sites and cvs server using ssh tunneling for secure connections
[18:37] <cabrioleur> Melch, on their website.
[18:37] <Dopam3> when i launch it it says starting pidgin interface in tray, then after a few seconds nothing happens
[18:37] <Melch> the website is down
[18:37] <cabrioleur> ra21vi, yes.
[18:37] <hwilde> ra21vi, which server is the one on the internet, A B or C
[18:37] <nathan__> ffs.. compiz stopped working for no reason -.-
[18:37] <cabrioleur> nathan__, any errors?
[18:37] <hwilde> nathan__, compiz --replace
[18:38] <gnr> cabrioleur,  $ options snd-hda-intel model=5stack
[18:38] <gnr> bash: options: command not found
[18:38] <ra21vi> hwilde: A and B is in intranet, and ssh on B is exposed to internet
[18:38] <cabrioleur> gnr, add it to your alsa-base file.
[18:38] <nathan__> cabrioleur, nope I just restarted X to get rid of pesky AWN and it wouldn't let me enable it
[18:38] <hwilde> ra21vi, ok then can B ssh to A
[18:38] <crazy3k> What could be the reason for my monitor not displaying some colors? Actually, I noticed this when I was using my Gmail account. In Gmail's interface, messages that are already read appear with a slightly blue background, but here they would appear with just a white background.
[18:38] <ra21vi> hwilde: i want the remote C client to connect to A through B for secure connection between C to B
[18:38] <hwilde> ra21vi, ok then can B ssh to A
[18:38] <Flark> Hey guys.  Having sound issues on my laptop.  Works fine with the default generic kernel, but sound not available with 386 kernel.  I tried installing the extra kernel packages, but no joy.
[18:39] <cabrioleur> gnr, then "sudo rmmod snd_hda_intel" and "sudo modprobe snd_hda_intel" if we are lucky it will be it.
[18:39] <nathan__> hwilde:Checking for Xgl: not present.
[18:39] <nathan__> No whitelisted driver found
[18:39] <nathan__> aborting and using fallback: /usr/bin/metacity
[18:39] <BrianG> what is the default location of the Ubuntu splash screen for Gnome?
[18:39] <ra21vi> hwilde: since B has the ssh server, and A doesnt, how can it be
[18:39] <gnr> cabrioleur,  (on first command) ERROR: Module snd_hda_intel is in use
[18:39] <hwilde> ra21vi, in order to establish port forwarding from B to A,   server A must have an openssh server running
[18:39] <vlt> Hello. How can I configure my video card and resolution from shell?
[18:39] <erUSUL> Flark: why do you need the, meant for old computers, 386 kernel=?
[18:39] <cabrioleur> gnr, restart the computer.
[18:39] <un0p> ra21vi, i keep telling you- -- if you A needs an SSH server of its own
[18:39] <Titanium2204> oula...
[18:40] <hwilde> ra21vi, then you could on server B, port forward to server A,   then outside clients just hit the forwarded port on server B
[18:40] <un0p> s/if you//
[18:40] <erUSUL> !splash | BrianG

[18:40] <jonathan__> Could anyone help me with figuring out why my scoll wheel isn't working on ubuntu?
[18:40] <nathan__> cabrioleur, any ideas?
[18:40] <ir1> nobody can help me with mldonkey?
[18:40] <Flark> erUSUL, didn't know it was for older computers.... which would be fastest for 32 bit x86?
[18:40] <erUSUL> Flark: generic
[18:40] <ra21vi> un0p: hwilde : oh, lol, I was just thinking for the solution to enroute the traffic A<--->B<-->C where B and c forms tunnl
[18:40] <dabbill> When i did sudo nvidia-settings i get http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60888/
[18:40] <erUSUL> !generic | Flark
[18:40] <ubotu> Flark: Background to the decision to replace -686, k7 and -smp kernels with -generic can be found here https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-August/019983.html (the -386 kernel is still available if needed)
[18:40] <BrianG> erUSUL: i know but i am looking for the default path to the Hardy splash screen.. my splash_image key is blank and shows the default gnome one
[18:41] <cabrioleur> nathan__, yes "SKIP_CHECKS=yes compiz"
[18:41] <Flark> k.  well I am still wanting to figure this problem out for future reference.
[18:41] <hwilde> ra21vi, like I said that would require a router and a firewall, not ssh port forwarding
[18:41] <erUSUL> |hardy > BrianG
[18:41] <erUSUL> !hardy > BrianG
[18:41] <ra21vi> hwilde: yes, thats implemented
[18:41] <BrianG> erUSUL: i know but i am looking for the default path to the ubuntu splash screen.. my splash_image key is blank and shows the default gnome one
[18:41] <ir1> noodlescgc, sorry, i didnt realise i am ir1
[18:41] <hwilde> ra21vi, so then on the router, just catch incoming traffic on port xxxx and send ti to the cvs port on server A
[18:42] <ir1> it gots sued, ok, but thats not the problem, the init script worked before
[18:42] <nathan__> cabrioleur, Xgl isn't present
[18:42] <ra21vi> hwilde: but since :pserver: on cvs sends cleartext passwords, how can i secure it, though implemented router and firewall fr it
[18:42] <Flark> there's something specific to the kernel about my sound driver that I have not been able to find.
[18:42] <nathan__> cabrioleur, nvm I don't need xgl. But it returns /usr/bin/compiz: 378: /usr/local/bin/compiz: not found
[18:42] <raiderxx> Does anyone know why my scroll wheel isnt working on ubuntu? It works fine on XP, and it's bluetooth if that will help.
[18:42] <hwilde> ra21vi, oh that's not good
[18:43] <ra21vi> hwilde: that port forwarding is not issue, just to secure the connection is the issue
[18:43] <un0p> ra21vi, if clients connect to serverB via SSH and serverB connects to serverA via ssh -- there is no worry about cleartext passwords because all communication is secure
[18:43] <Flark> I would really like to know why it works with generic kernel and not with 386... I need to install something else for the 386 kernel that I haven't seen yet
[18:43] <cabrioleur> nathan__, do you have nvidia?
[18:43] <ir1> so i know that mlnet works because i can start with my home user. However, when I init the init.d script, i get mlnet working for a few seconds, then says bye without any error message
[18:43] <Technomike> I am a new ubuntu user, and I just want to say, this is amazing! I never knew it was so simple to use!
[18:43] <Jaffarkelshac> having problem with ubuntu on my laptop. Any idea ppl http://paste.ubuntu.com/6046/
[18:44] <ir1> So noodlesgc, it's like mlnet is stopping without saying anything
[18:44] <ra21vi> un0p: sorry, but I cannt install ssh server on A (
[18:44] <erUSUL> Flark: maybe the driver didn't got configured in the 386 kernel compilation
[18:44] <gnr> cabrioleur, still says in use
[18:44] <nathan__> cabrioleur: Ati. It started working quite easily I just got envy and installed the drivers and poof it worked. But I restarted X and it stopped working out of the blue
[18:44] <hwilde> ra21vi, if external clients ssh to server B that link will be secure, from there they would have to connect to cvs and the cleartext would only be local on the intranet
[18:44] <cabrioleur> nathan__, check what driver you are using right now with command "fglxinfo"
[18:44] <Flark> maybe.
[18:44] <un0p> ra21vi, you can also use iptables and masquerading on serverB to have ports forwarded on to serverA -- which i suppose you need, it's probably simpler for you to understand and implement
[18:44] <ra21vi> hwilde: you got it, that is what i want, i doent fear cleartext over Intranet
[18:44] <cabrioleur> nathan__, it really looks like you are not using fglrx
[18:45] <stupendo44> I'm trying to set up my Sierra Wireless 881U USB Modem to connect to AT&T Wireless internet using the guide at http://www.sierrawireless.com/faq/ShowFAQ.aspx?ID=1077. I tried running the patch, but it can't find the file to patch.

[18:45] <BrianG> what is the default path of the Ubuntu splash screen for Gnome?
[18:46] <fr500> hello
[18:46] <fr500> i did an apt-get source mpd to enable things like mp4 and aac and recompiled

[18:46] <dabbill> When i did sudo nvidia-settings i get http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60888/
[18:46] <fr500> but mpd doesnt work on boot, the init script does nothing
[18:46] <fr500> can help?
[18:46] <Jaffarkelshac> huh
[18:46] <ra21vi> un0p: that can be solved via the router, and the sysadmin has done that to reroute company.com:2401 to hit server B.company.com:2401
[18:46] <gnr> cabrioleur, did you mean add those lines to asla base or in terminal?

[18:49] <cabrioleur> Jaffarkelshac, your it's not a bios bug.
[18:50] <Jaffarkelshac> what could it be
[18:50] <guest> some command like.......else if..then ...
[18:50] <cabrioleur> Jaffarkelshac, bios bug is not dangerous, and you can just add pnpbios=off to hush it.
[18:50] <gnr> now a reboot cabrioleur ?
[18:50] <cabrioleur> gnr, yes
[18:50] <kotik> salut tt le monde
[18:50] <jinxcrash> cabrioleur, any ideeas why is my instal not working ?
[18:50] <Jaffarkelshac> what about the rest of the error log with
[18:51] <Guillem> hmm, slocate gets 100% cpu and slows down my system during the first minutes (even when I have a core2-duo CPU, perhaps because the hard-disk is too busy)... Is it safe to remove slocate package?
[18:51] <cabrioleur> jinxcrash, did you try adding options "noapic nolapic pnpbios=off"??
[18:51] <jinxcrash> will try
[18:51] <FFEMTcJ> Does anyone listen to sirius radio using ubuntu? I'm trying to figure out what plugin I need to make it work.
[18:51] <Guillem> sorry, it is updatedb actually (but it is the same)
[18:52] <cabrioleur> Guillem, no!! slocate is nice. Just chmod -x on starting script if you don't like it.
[18:52] <rym> Hmm question, my recently installed ubuntu crashes every once in a while
[18:52] <Jaffarkelshac> i have tried almost all the boot options including vga=771 but still black screen
[18:52] <rym> and when i check the syslogs this error seems to happen right before the crashes

[18:52] <rym> it doesnt exist
[18:53] <Guillem> cabrioleur, I was afraid of it when I've seen that ubuntu-desktop depends on it
[18:53] <cabrioleur> Guillem, but I really recommend to put updatedb in cron in hours you will not work.
[18:53] <rym> it keeps sayign hdc tray open, and then the i/o error
[18:53] <cenwesi> hello everyone
[18:54] <cabrioleur> Jaffarkelshac, what graphic card? ATI?
[18:54] <crazy3k> What could be the reason for my monitor not displaying some colors? Actually, I noticed this when I was using my Gmail account. In Gmail's interface, messages that are already read appear with a slightly blue background, but here they would appear with just a white background.
[18:54] <Guillem> cabrioleur, this is a laptop....  and probably because of anacron, updatedb starts at the first minute after boot
[18:54] <Jaffarkelshac> not sure
[18:54] <Jaffarkelshac> but i don't think
[18:54] <gnr> didn't seem to work cabrioleur
[18:55] <cabrioleur> gnr, what you get when you do alsamixer?
[18:55] <cabrioleur> Jaffarkelshac, what laptop?

[18:55] <cabrioleur> Guillem, the starting script is in the /etc/rc.d*
[18:56] <Guillem> cabrioleur, no, it is not
[18:56] <Guillem> cabrioleur, it is at cron.daily
[18:56] <cabrioleur> Guillem, sorry then. you are right, you can just sudo chmod -x on it.
[18:57] <Gullstad> Is it possible to burn an imagefile (*.iso, *.img) whit ubuntu terminal? (ubuntu-server 7.10)
[18:57] <Guillem> cabrioleur, but then it won't work so it will be as it was not installed
[18:57] <cabrioleur> Gullstad, yes
[18:57] <cabrioleur> Guillem, it will not update the database. You can do it manually with "sudo updatedb"

[18:59] <yoriel> can somebody answer
[18:59] <dabbill> When i did sudo nvidia-settings i get http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60888/
[18:59] <gnr> cabrioleur,  how? :p
[19:00] <cabrioleur> gnr, with "m" on your keyboard.
[19:00] <gnr> cabrioleur,  that does the front, not surround
[19:00] <cabrioleur> gnr, go to alsamixer and highlight surround. I think that's the one that controls the speakers. The nomenclature is strange.

[19:03] <cabrioleur> gnr, I got another question. Try to go to your gnome volume control and play with the zippers. Check headphones on and off. It looks like the sound is working, it's just a setup.

[19:22] <Flare183> amerio: you must use ip addresses in order for it to work that way
[19:22] <noodlesgc> thisdyu thats odd, is it an extremely long amount of time or just a little longer than usual
[19:22] <amerio> Flarel83 how 2 do that?

[19:22] <ZPertee> what is the best command line audio player?

[19:23] <mintsoup> I want to move my ubuntu installation from a partition at the end of my hdd to the one at the beginning--is it safe to do this with something like cp -a?  Will it keep my installation intact and useable? or will stuff be broken?
[19:23] <Jack_Sparrow> mw-smith-noobie, the blutooth startup ?  or the start or install menu that first comes up
[19:23] <amerio> Flarel83: both file manager and smb://...
[19:23] <Jack_Sparrow> mintsoup, It will break it.. just not badly.. see uuid and fstab info

[19:23] <Flare183> amerio: ok on the file manager where is says "smb://" there should be a edit button find it and click it
[19:24] <kadakas> how can i share a folder with samba using a command line command?
[19:24] <mw-smith-noobie> Sorry, I haven't been to clear.  The first issue is that the startup script (before X starts) hangs at the starting bluetooth devices step.  I'll try noapic and acpi=off to fix that.  Will that also installer continue through the detecting hardware step once I get x loaded and begin the installation?

[19:25] <noodlesgc> slaytanic 31 days, check ubuntu.com for the countdown
[19:25] <Flare183> exactly
[19:25] <rym> is it recommended to update right away when a new vers gets released
[19:25] <Jaffarkelshac> hello everyone, I am having a little problem http://paste.ubuntu.com/6064 can you help
[19:25] <slaytanic> Great. Thanks.
[19:25] <rym> i figure this isnt like windows vista
[19:25] <rym> 'let the masses test it '
[19:25] <amerio> Flarel83 ok now my pc can see my laptop :D but asking for a password and im typing a wrong one , how to set up a new password ?
[19:25] <Flare183> !enter | rym
[19:25] <ubotu> rym: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[19:26] <dabbill> any one know how to fix? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60888
[19:26] <Jack_Sparrow> Jaffarkelshac, Please supply a basic description of the problem when posting a link.
[19:26] <noodlesgc> rym, i wait a while because the servers get overloaded
[19:26] <rym> mhm
[19:26] <captainm> rym, If you really want to be safe I'd wait a month or so before upgrading
[19:26] <Jack_Sparrow> amerio, Do you have a user name and account (both the same ) on both machines
[19:26] <mw-smith-noobie> Jack_Sparrow what do you recommend for the hanging installation?  I appreciate the help . . .
[19:26] <rym> ahkey
[19:27] <Jaffarkelshac> cant install ubunt 7.10 on my laptop i get no login screen its just black
[19:27] <amerio> Jack_Sparrow yup I guess so
[19:27] <rym> and upgrading is without loss of settings?
[19:27] <Jack_Sparrow> mw-smith-noobie, do you get to the start or install screen?
[19:27] <Flare183> amerio: umm.... let me think
[19:27] <rym> (i doubt data gets lost at all when updating)
[19:27] <bluefoxx> will an ISA sound card work in 8.04?
[19:27] <cyclonut> mw-smith-noobie, did you remove all external drives/peripherals?
[19:27] <Flare183> bluefoxx: ask in #ubuntu+1
[19:27] <cyclonut> mw-smith-noobie, I have seen installs hang when a mouse was plugged in.
[19:27] <cyclonut> mw-smith-noobie, also, when ipod's are plugged in.
[19:28] <Jack_Sparrow> bluefoxx, Not sure, but isa anything is on life support
[19:28] <Haegin> !english > Haegin
[19:28] <Jaffarkelshac> hello everyone, I am having a little problem http://paste.ubuntu.com/6046 can you help i get black screen where login should be
[19:28] <captainm> rym, Data loss isn't supposed to happen ;)
[19:28] <rym> haha
[19:28] <mw-smith-noobie> J_S: don't know what you're asking, exactly.  I've been starting X manually to get to the live cd.  Then I can run the installer, where it hangs at the usb-storage step of the "detecting hardware" screen.  Does that make sense?
[19:28] <rym> allrighty then :p
[19:28] <amerio> Flarel83 I've tried to set a new password in LAPTOP for the user of the PC but I get error something like failed to modify password for entry for user amer
[19:28] <rym> i remember when i reinstalled windows without actually formatting i had the feeling i did a dirty install
[19:29] <rym> program files still lying around
[19:29] <rym> nothing worked, etc.
[19:29] <Jack_Sparrow> mw-smith-noobie, No.. it doesnt .. what cd are you using
[19:29] <mw-smith-noobie> 7.10 live CD.  I tried the alternate CD but that didn't work for other reasons that I don't understand (another discussion, perhaps).  I tried the 64-bit package and just got the same result with the 32-bit package.  All have good md5s.
[19:30] <jrdyquist> Jaffarkelshac, edit the grub config and pass it the nosplash option, it's a known issue
[19:30] <pimplife> how can i download the compiz compizconfig-settings-manager
[19:30] <Jaffarkelshac> i have no idea how to do that
[19:31] <Jaffarkelshac> i get this error when trying ubuntu live so where do i edit the config
[19:31] <noodlesgc> pimplife sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager
[19:31] <Jack_Sparrow> mw-smith-noobie, USe the 32 bit livecd, it should come up to menu, start or install.  that is where you would hit F6
[19:31] <pimplife> noodlesgc: yea but my wireless doesnt work
[19:32] <noodlesgc> pimplife so your ubuntu machine has no internet?
[19:32] <mw-smith-noobie> OK, I do that and remove quiet and change splash to nosplash.  That gets me to the first hang--starting bluetooth devices.  I hit enter and at the command prompt I type startx to get to the desktop.
[19:32] <pimplife> noodlesgc: nope
[19:32] <adinc> &wc
[19:32] <noodlesgc> pimplife ok go to packages.ubuntu.com and get the file from there
[19:32] <pimplife> noodlesgc: thanks
[19:33] <Flare183> amerio: http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-7.3-Manual/custom-guide/s1-samba-configuring.html
[19:33] <jrdyquist> Jaffarkelshac> when the cd boots to the install screen you press f6, from there you can edit the long string, you'll find "splash" at the end, change it to "nosplash"
[19:33] <bullgard4> [Epiphany] I forgot how to add a preferred link entry in the 5th line (just below the address line).
[19:33] <Jack_Sparrow> mw-smith-noobie, what about pulling your bluetooth stuff..  is it supported hardware.. did you check our hardware page etc ?
[19:33] <Jaffarkelshac> oh that, i have tried that it boots still to a black screen
[19:33] <waiwaine> hi
[19:33] <waiwaine> speak french ?
[19:34] <mw-smith-noobie> This computer has no bluetooth hardware.
[19:34] <noodlesgc> !fr | waiwaine
[19:34] <ubotu> waiwaine: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[19:34] <waiwaine> thanks
[19:34] <Prefix> what good 3d single player rpgs are there for ubuntu? ( By good i mean nice to play, good gfx, good storyline )
[19:34] <Flare183> amerio: try that
[19:34] <Jack_Sparrow> Jaffarkelshac, at the black screen can you ctrl-alt-F2 and get a login prompt
[19:34] <amerio> Flarel83 I'll check up this guide , but now I've added a new user to laptop called "amer" when I typed the password it gave me an error like failed to mount windows share
[19:34] <Jack_Sparrow> !games
[19:34] <ubotu> Information about games on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php
[19:35] <Flare183> amerio: ok good luck
[19:35] <Prefix> yeah but i was looking for an opinion
[19:35] <Mark_G> Prefix, UT2004, Warsow, OpenArena, Assault Cube, BZFlag
[19:35] <noodlesgc> Dont forget UrbanTerror
[19:35] <Mark_G> Prefix, Termulous
[19:35] <Prefix> they are fps are they not?
[19:36] <Mark_G> *tremulous
[19:36] <graft_> anyone know how to find the fastest ubuntu mirror for me?
[19:36] <Jaffarkelshac> its not quiet black, it flashes between black a distorted graphic, nothing happens at this stage except reboot.
[19:36] <Mark_G> Prefix, all but bzflag.. FPS in a tank
[19:36] <fevel> does anyone have problems with using multiple users on u into?
[19:36] <anthony> graft_: iirc, the tool is called netselect, but you'll have to check the manpage for usage information.
[19:36] <fevel> *ubuntu
[19:36] <Mark_G> Prefix, some you'll have to get the latest versions because the repos are outdated.. check out www.getdeb.net
[19:37] <anthony> graft_: I think there actually might be a button for it in the GUI interface to Software Sources these days as well.
[19:37] <Geoffrey2> can anyone recommend a decent Ubuntu app to print envelope addresses?
[19:37] <noodlesgc> graft_ go to System->Administration->Software sources then click the dropdown list and then click find fastest mirrir
[19:37] <fevel> my system skips when I log onto more than one account
[19:37] <graft> noodlesgc, anthony: yeah, that button is broken for me, i'll try netselect, thanks
[19:37] <anthony> Geoffrey2: Either OOo or glabel should work, depending on how you're planning to do it.
[19:37] <Mark_G> Geoffrey2, glabels .. it's in the repos
[19:37] <ZPertee> can someone please tell what I need to do to be able to play mp3 from Gutsy server

[19:38] <Titanium2204> I search flowbubles of Vista to put on ubuntu 7.10
[19:38] <Flare183> wow
[19:38] <cdc> Can ubuntu [or any linux] join a windows domain?
[19:38] <Titanium2204> it's possible to do ?
[19:38] <rsk> ues
[19:38] <rsk> yes
[19:38] <anthony> !samba | cdc
[19:38] <ubotu> cdc: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT.
[19:38] <mw-smith-noobie> the real problem that I am trying to get at is the installation once the live desktop (x) is running.  It goes through the whole deal (partitioning and mount points) then starts installing the OS butgets to "90% detecting hardware) it says "loading usb-storage for USB storage" and just hangs.  WTF?  Any ideas?
[19:38] <Titanium2204> how i can do to have a screensaver of vista ? with the bubles
[19:38] <Mark_G> !avahi
[19:38] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about avahi - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi
[19:39] <a28> Question: does anyone have an idea as to why certain web pages will NOT begin to load in linux, but will in windows? (same machine, same firefox, etc)
[19:39] <Agron> !list
[19:39] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[19:39] <Geoffrey2> anthony, I've tried OOo, pretty much a bust, can't even get it to print within the margins of the envelope
[19:39] <Mark_G> a28 do you have noscript installed on one and not the other?
[19:39] <a28> i can't even wget a png file from this webserver in linux, but i can in windows
[19:39] <a28> Mark_G, same plugin setup even
[19:39] <Mark_G> Geoffrey2, glabels works well and will even do data merges
[19:39] <Titanium2204> pleaze help me ! :(
[19:40] <anthony> a28: Only certain pages though?
[19:40] <Mark_G> a28 what's the site
[19:40] <Mark_G> or pages
[19:40] <Lizardo> hi
[19:40] <Skater> Hey everyone, I'm running Ubuntu 7.10 gutsy fresh off of an install yesterday, I'm already having a problem
[19:40] <Titanium2204> i need the screensaver of vista with the bubles how i can to put this
[19:40] <mw-smith-noobie> Jack_Sparrow, you still out there?
[19:40] <ideal> hmm, I was trying to install a debian package of limewire pro, and then the package installer crashed.. now the package installer is just sitting there all greyed out like, what do I do?
[19:40] <a28> anthony, yes and all part of Ohio State University servers
[19:40] <Skater> My friend and I want to transfer a file, so I set up an ftp server, sudo apt-install ftpd
[19:40] <a28> anthony, Mark_G http://www.ureg.ohio-state.edu/ourweb/more/Content/Important_dates/SP08_Important_dates.htm there is one that wont work right now
[19:41] <Skater> Once installed I do : sudo adduser ahs3
[19:41] <Skater> Then, he says he wants to use OpenSSH
[19:41] <anthony> a28: are you quite sure the problem is on _your_ end?
[19:41] <Skater> So, I typed sudo userdel ahs3
[19:41] <a28> anthony, Mark_G http://fod.osu.edu/2008/library_path_alternate.png there is the PNG just to make it simpler
[19:41] <Skater> and it says: user ahs3 does not exist
[19:41] <mw-smith-noobie> anybody feel like helping me get my hp laptop to play nice with Gutsy?  I'd hate to be forced to use Vista (feelings of inadequacy threaten me).
[19:42] <Mark_G> a28, yep won't load here either.. just spins
[19:42] <a28> anthony, no but i dont know how to continue diagnosing
[19:42] <anthony> a28: It doesn't load for me either, not on Ubuntu right now.  Not your problem.
[19:42] <Skater> so I type ls /home and hi name is there still..
[19:42] <Skater> I need help deleting user ahs3 from /home
[19:42] <anthony> a28: call up the admin and tell them it's down...
[19:42] <a28> anthony: what OS? it will load for me on this exact same machine if i boot in windows
[19:42] <cr4> does anybody here know some program aplication to make automatically files backup ?
[19:42] <anthony> a28: Mac 10.5
[19:42] <noodlesgc> Titanium2204 you cannot use windows screensavers, especially ones created by microsoft, though there are similar ones
[19:42] <HardyOne> is there a blog applet that supports uploading of images ?
[19:42] <a28> anthony: the admin will say "what OS are you using? sorry we dont support that"
[19:42] <Jaffarkelshac> how do i stop gnome display manage
[19:43] <anthony> a28: You never answer that question.
[19:43] <Skater> ...
[19:43] <a28> anthony: hehehe
[19:43] <Skater> ....
[19:43] <a28> anthony: im just stumped as to what could possibly be making the difference, when i cant even wget the stupid png
[19:43] <FD_F> Hi i need put firestarter on startup i add permission on /etc/sudoers  when i type sudo /usr/sbin/firestarter it running with no password but when i put on seasons on starup it not working, thanks
[19:43] <anthony> a28: Most likely you have the DNS information cached in Windows b/c you've visited the site before, and don't have it cached in Ubuntu, and the DNS servers are down/incorrect right now.  If you flush the DNS info in XP, it will probably fail there too.
[19:44] <Titanium2204> Can i Find the equivalent ?
[19:44] <Lizardo> I have following problem: I installed ubuntu following the instructions of the fakeraidhowto. Now I wanted to install some packages ending up with an error message which says "please insert disk... in >>/cdrom/<<
[19:44] <crackhead100> hi aLL what's the BEST CHAT program on ubuntu for someone who has tons of aim contacts and a few different aim logins??
[19:44] <a28> anthony: it has never worked in linux though, and i rebooted into windows and it worked the very first time i encountered this. also it has never hung in windows
[19:44] <erUSUL> Lizardo: System>Admin>Software sources disable the cdrom
[19:45] <captainm> crackhead100, pidgin. It's already installed
[19:45] <a28> anthony: i tried using the useragent thing in firefox but to no avail figured that might be it
[19:45] <Lizardo> oh lol I must be blind -_-
[19:45] <Dhaunz> mmh how do I know current version of my graphic card driver?
[19:45] <mw-smith-noobie> I suppose that the deafening silence should be a hint . . . Anybody feel like offering me a bit of advice?
[19:45] <CJS3141> What is GRUB vs. GRUB2? I'm on gutsy, so which one am I using as a boot manager?
[19:45] <noodlesgc> Titanium2204 yes it is called bubble3d it is in the xscreensaver-gl package
[19:46] <amerio> Flarel83 I Tried the guide but it didnt work :S
[19:46] <anthony> a28: eh, just call 'em up and say it's broken in everything.  If it doesn't load for your Ubuntu or anyone else here, it's clearly a problem on their end regardless of what the problem is.  Someone is being paid for this - make them do it.
[19:46] <Emilian> how do I update a program from source?
[19:46] <Lizardo> Why doesn't it work with my CD?
[19:46] <Titanium2204> but i haven't the screen invisible
[19:46] <Flare183> amerio: ok I'm sorry but I don't have no idea on way to do then
[19:46] <anthony> CJS3141: I don't think grub2 is released for production yet... anyway, you can check with 'apt-cache policy grub' if you like.
[19:46] <a28> anthony: hehe well if it doesnt work in macOS then i can always lie and say im using that, if they press me
[19:47] <anthony> a28: sure thing
[19:47] <cyclonut> I have installed sometihng by compiling it, then doing "make install"; can anyone tell me how to uninstall that?
[19:47] <amerio> Flarel83 what does it mean when it gives you fail to mount windows share?
[19:47] <Lizardo> thx erUSUL but why doesn't it work with my CD?
[19:47] <Titanium2204> the invisible or transparency screen
[19:47] <noodlesgc> Titanium2204 yes it is slightly different, the bubbles are drawn on a black background
[19:47] <CJS3141> anthony: Thanks! Any idea when grub2 is supposed to arrive?
[19:47] <erUSUL> Lizardo: dunno; is the desktop CD ?
[19:48] <anthony> CJS3141: not a clue
[19:48] <graft> why the hell does netselect-apt find me the fastest Debian mirror?!
[19:48] <Titanium2204> it's to bad :( i will like to see my desktop
[19:48] <Flare183> amerio: it means that you can't mount the shared folder that windows is sharing (this most of the time means that Windows isn't letting you share the folder because you are using a linux computer) [if this is the case, that is]
[19:48] <ra21vi> hwilde: r u there
[19:48] <CJS3141> anthony: No problem--thanks for the great tip to check my grub version.
[19:48] <Lizardo> erUSUL: yes its the desktop CD
[19:48] <hwilde> ra21vi, more or less
[19:48] <sk8ball> ive noticed a lot of the font colors in firefox2 are really light and hard to read -- this isnt the case under windows on the same machine ideas on how to fix this?
[19:48] <Titanium2204> it's impossible to do ? :( it's very bad because window 98 can do that
[19:48] <amerio> Flarel83 but both computers are Ubuntus , none of them is windows :S
[19:49] <noodlesgc> Titanium2204 i think it is possible, by having it draw on a screenshot, im googling it right now
[19:49] <erUSUL> Lizardo: that does not work as deb repositorie afaik
[19:49] <Itaku> i got a question about apache2 but im on hardy do i ask that in here or #ubuntu+1?
[19:49] <Lizardo> erUSUL: I followed the instructions of the fakeraidhowto may this be the problem?
[19:49] <Flare183> amerio: then that means that you have the same problem that I do. I haven't found the answer to it eitheer
[19:49] <ra21vi> hwilde: lol, well I found the solution, just have to $ssh -N -p 22 sshusername@sshserver -L 2401/cvs-server-addr/2401
[19:49] <Titanium2204> i haven't find to google ^^ if you find a new call me plz !
[19:49] <anthony> Itaku: either #ubuntu+1 or #apache, depending on the question.
[19:49] <erUSUL> Lizardo: do not think so
[19:49] <Flare183> Itaku: yes
[19:50] <ra21vi> unop_: you were right in solution
[19:50] <amerio> Flarel83 any other ways for filesharing than samba?
[19:50] <Itaku> well i want to make apache go to index.php instead of index.html when i go to http://127.0.0.1 how do i do that?
[19:50] <Flare183> amerio: I don't know
[19:50] <amerio> Flarek83 ok thank you buddy
[19:50] <Flare183> amerio: sorry I couldn't help more
[19:50] <ra21vi> Itaku: i think in apache config see fr the DocumentIndex something
[19:50] <anthony> Itaku: that would best fit in #apache (software-specific rather than OS-specific)
[19:50] <orkun> hey there - should one include or exclude /dev in one's backup? there are sources that tell me i should, otherwise many errors - other sources tell me i should not, otherwise many errors. i can understand both - what should i do?
[19:50] <Lizardo> erUSUL: ok thx... can you help me with an other problem? My terminal doesn't auto-complete when I press TAB... how can I fix this?(sry I'm new to linux)
[19:51] <Titanium2204> noodlesgc can you speak me in private plz
[19:51] <Itaku> thanks
[19:51] <noodlesgc> Titanium2204 ok
[19:51] <hwilde> ra21vi, so your cvs server DOES have an ssh server
[19:51] <ra21vi> hwilde: no
[19:52] <sk8ball> ok i take that back --- a lot of the lighter colored fonts in X are so light they cant be read like light greys and such
[19:52] <Itaku> ra21vi: wheres the config file?
[19:52] <ra21vi> Itaku: first google it, and look into /etc/apache2/sites-available/
[19:53] <ra21vi> Itaku: there you can specify that
[19:53] <new2gen2> help: i made a mistake and did command --> chgrp -hR users /. and now i get su: authentication failure !
[19:53] <erUSUL> Lizardo: does not autocomplete anything=?
[19:53] <Lizardo> erUSUL: When I press tab it just inserts big gap like in windows OS

[19:57] <ethan961> xb3rt, not likely
[19:58] <ethan961> it probably already is running linux

[20:01] <robbie> How i can compile source files?
[20:01] <Lizardo> erUSUL: What could be wrong with my keyboard settings? Any idea?
[20:01] <Jack_Sparrow> !compile
[20:01] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first)
[20:01] <xb3rt> Lizardo: if you exit the term and reopen does that fix the issue?
[20:01] <Netham45> I'm trying to get a vhost setup, and all I was given was an IP. Anyone know what I do with it?
[20:01] <noodlesgc> Titanium2204 are you registered on freenode?
[20:01] <Lizardo> xb3rt: No, it's always the same
[20:01] <Titanium2204> no

[20:04] <noodlesgc> Titanium2204 now type /msg NickServ IDENTIFY <password>
[20:04] <Jack_Sparrow> insomnia, Please keep it family friendly
[20:05] <insomnia> family friendly?
[20:05] <insomnia> we have 8 year olds in here?
[20:05] <majost> So I am stuck using Dapper for a turnkey product.... and I have been forced to backport some ALSA stuff. I am wondering if anyone here could assist me with the abichecker or point me to some information on how to do ABI bumps for the 2.6.15 dapper kernel
[20:05] <Titanium2204> yes and ?
[20:05] <ompaul> insomnia, consider it so
[20:05] <insomnia> huh.
[20:05] <Xtahc> Jack_Sparrow ?? diff between alternate and desktop ?
[20:05] <insomnia> ompaul: well, I'm 7 years old and I say they should grow up.
[20:05] <wilbury> Jesus fucking christ, that's hell lot of users.
[20:06] <Jack_Sparrow> Xtahc, desktop has live test drive, alternate handles nore troublesome hardware
[20:06] <noodlesgc> Titanium2204 now try messaging me
[20:06] <Xtahc> live test drive ??
[20:06] <Xtahc> Jack_sparrow ? care to explain ?
[20:07] <Jack_Sparrow> Xtahc, Live session .. it all runs in ran and does not touch your hard drive.
[20:07] <Itaku> how do i change the number of a files permission?
[20:07] <Jack_Sparrow> ram
[20:07] <Arenlor> I'm wondering, should I install the package 'mono-apache-server' or 'mono-apache-server2'?
[20:07] <Itaku> like 0777
[20:07] <Arenlor> Itaku chmod it
[20:07] <Itaku> how?
[20:07] <AJC_Z0> Itaku: With chmod(1)
[20:07] <Nasra> how do I open file with .exe in ubuntu?
[20:08] <Itaku> Nasra: sudo apt-get install wine
[20:08] <xb3rt> Nasra: with wine
[20:08] <AJC_Z0> e.g. # chmod 755 mydir
[20:08] <Itaku> Nasra: then double click the file
[20:08] <Nasra> ok
[20:08] <Nasra> thanks alot
[20:08] <Jack_Sparrow> Itaku, It generally isnt needed..  Please explain your problem so we can help avoid creating a problem
[20:08] <AJC_Z0> but never 777. 777 is for international aviation, not permissions
[20:08] <graft> hi, i have some python error telling me some module doesn't exist, although it seems to be installed... pycentral reports the package is installed, and I can see the appropriate .py for the module, so what is my issue?
[20:08] <Itaku> Jack_Sparrow: ?
[20:08] <Nitramusa> hi, onone on #grub is on his keyboard i see, can someone help me with manually booting grub???
[20:09] <Nitramusa> no one*
[20:09] <erUSUL> Nitramusa: manually?
[20:09] <graft> Nitramusa: what're you trying to do?
[20:09] <Nitramusa> yes.. like when u type 'c'
[20:09] <Nitramusa> i dont have entries for my OS's
[20:09] <Scunizi> Itaku, what are you trying to install.. there might be another package that will work better.
[20:09] <Nitramusa> and i need to boot my linux
[20:09] <Nitramusa> for editing menu.lst
[20:09] <Jack_Sparrow> Itaku, People wanting to set root password or wanting to change permissions indicates they are doing something that may not be in their best interest
[20:09] <graft> Nitramusa: fortunately grub has tab-completion
[20:10] <Nitramusa> yep i know
[20:10] <Nitramusa> a friend explained..but he had to go
[20:10] <Nitramusa> his last words were: ask explication on booting grub manually
[20:10] <Jack_Sparrow> Nitramusa, sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst
[20:10] <graft> Nitramusa: you need three lines, a 'root' line, a 'kernel' line, and an 'initrd' line... have you figured out how to edit an entry?
[20:10] <bartmon> Hey. I'm migrating Firefox and Thunderbird from Windows. Can I just copy the profile folders over and expect everything to just work?
[20:11] <erUSUL> Nitramusa: maybe it is easier to boot from a livecd and edit the file from there...
[20:11] <Scunizi> bartmon, probably.. as long as you don't miss something.. they are the same programs
[20:11] <Nitramusa> erUSUL, are u sure i wont have any issues with mounting the HD or something?
[20:11] <Vermux> how do I create the icon that switch between languages?
[20:11] <graft> Nitramusa: how many disks do you have?
[20:12] <Nitramusa> 1 disk
[20:12] <Nitramusa> no
[20:12] <graft> Nitramusa: you should be able to mount it fine from the live cd if you want to do that
[20:12] <Nitramusa> 2 disks
[20:12] <bartmon> Scunizi: I'm guessing so as well. I'm just a bit concerned about the end-of-line terminating character in plain-text config files.
[20:12] <Nitramusa> and 6 partitions
[20:12] <Draggin> Whoa... What's going on here... Are there for real only three people in the room?
[20:12] <erUSUL> Nitramusa: if you are at a boot promt to boot a linux you need to set initrd ()path/to/initrd and kernel ()path/to/kernel root=/dev/whatever and finally cross fingers and run boot
[20:12] <Nitramusa> yeah ok
[20:12] <graft> Nitramusa: hmm.. well in that case you have to guess which disk and partition you think linux is installed on (not impossible, but might take some guesswork)
[20:12] <Draggin> Ha :) Better
[20:12] <erUSUL> Nitramusa: no no issues mounting ext3 partitions
[20:12] <Nitramusa> i know wich disk
[20:12] <Nitramusa> its on /dev/sda3
[20:13] <Scunizi> bartmon, copy them across and give it a whirl.. you won't hurt anything..
[20:13] <pimplife> can i just install themes in ubuntu and they'll just work
[20:13] <Nitramusa> but nvm im just booting the ubuntu LiveCD, it will work without any probs eh?
[20:13] <erUSUL> Nitramusa: findroot grub command will tell where the files are
[20:13] <graft> Nitramusa: oh ah... so try root (hd0,2)
[20:13] <Titanium2204> #ubuntu-fr
[20:13] <Nitramusa> i gave up on that..im booting the LiveCD ;)
[20:13] <graft> Nitramusa: the livecd should work fine, and you ought to be able to update grub in there
[20:13] <Nitramusa> it will work?
[20:13] <Titanium2204> join #ubuntu-fr
[20:13] <pimplife> can i just install themes in ubuntu and they'll just work
[20:13] <Nitramusa> ok graft
[20:14] <Titanium2204> okay...
[20:14] <HardyOne> Titanium2204, /join #ubuntu-fr
[20:14] <Titanium2204> yes ^^
[20:14] <graft> Nitramusa: although it's worth learning how to use grub some time when you have a spare hour - it's not that hard and it can save your butt in a crisis
[20:14] <Draggin> I also have a question concerning disks and mounting... How does Ubuntu decide what it will mount automatically at boot time?  If I boot into Windows, I see three 'hard drives' (one is in fact only a smaller partition on hard drive 2).  When I boot into Ubuntu, it only auto-mounts the first two drives as 'volumes'.  How do I get it to mount the last one as a volume as well?
[20:14] <Titanium2204> i miss the touche
[20:14] <Nitramusa> partition 0 on hard disc 1 is (hd0,0) or (hd0,1) ?
[20:14] <Jack_Sparrow> pimplife, not all themes will work all the time on every system
[20:14] <Flare183> On the terminal how do I run a multi-command on one single line?
[20:15] <graft> Nitramusa: (hd1,0), if hard disk 1 is the second disk
[20:15] <Nitramusa> ok graft, i will take my time to learn it tomorrow or something, but i need this done asap :)
[20:15] <erUSUL> Flare183: separate commands with ; ??
[20:15] <stefg> !fstab | Draggin
[20:15] <ubotu> Draggin: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[20:15] <hazard> Any suggestions as to why the installer keeps hanging at "prepare partitions" after I click Forward?
[20:15] <pimplife> Jack_Sparrow: how do i know which ones will
[20:15] <Draggin> Thanks stefg :)
[20:15] <Nitramusa> yeah but i mean abour partitions graft , how is first disc and first partition in grub? (hd0,0)?
[20:16] <Titanium2204> what i must do to identify me to server ?
[20:16] <graft> Nitramusa: the first partition on the first disk is (hd0,0)
[20:16] <stefg> Draggin: these are the basics. Be aware that ubuntu has some automounting features, which don't rely on /etc/fstab. before you touch /etc/fstab, rather check back here
[20:16] <Jack_Sparrow> pimplife, Only way I know of is by trying them or reading the feedback from other users on gnome-look etc..
[20:16] <Nitramusa> thx graft :)
[20:16] <graft> Nitramusa: but grub and the kernel don't NECESSARILY order disks the same way, so it might not be the same in both places
[20:16] <jordan_> this is a basic question but how do
[20:16] <pimplife> Jack_Sparrow: thanx
[20:17] <Nitramusa> ok graft
[20:17] <Nasra> Itaku...how do i configure wine ...it looks like in windass ..what is procedure please....
[20:17] <xb3rt> I just tried installing freemind which failed due to missing java dependecies, anyone know where I can get these or if theirs an apt-get for the whole works
[20:17] <eternal_p> what is the ubuntu beta channel again?
[20:17] <jordan_> this is a basic question but how do I run dpkg --configure -a with sudo?
[20:17] <xb3rt> and I due have the latest java installed
[20:17] <graft> eternal_p: #ubuntu+1
[20:17] <eternal_p> graft: ty
[20:18] <Nitramusa> iv been 3 days on how to install grub on a lilo standard distro..finally today somebody spent 1 hour with me to do it :)
[20:18] <erUSUL> jordan_: put the sudo in front of the line
[20:18] <HardyOne> !java | xb3rt
[20:18] <ubotu> xb3rt: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository (in !Backports for !Edgy)
[20:18] <jordan_> like "sudo dpkg --configure -a"?
[20:18] <erUSUL> jordan_: exactly
[20:18] <HardyOne> xb3rt, what depends is it asking for?
[20:19] <bartmon> Scunizi: Thunderbird worked as described. Seems parsing config files is robust. :)
[20:19] <Nasra> xb3rt...you know how to configure wine ....to work for me....( I am new to linux )....this wine thingy looks more like windass..
[20:19] <stefg> !wine

[20:20] <Nasra> HardyOne: sorry....

[20:20] <Nasra> Itaku....so is easy...right/
[20:20] <aryr100> hello all
[20:20] <Nitramusa> hello
[20:20] <matthijs> Hello, my audio stopped working after a kernel upgrade and suspending my T30. I think I want to downgrade this kernel. how do I do that?
[20:20] <Itaku> when i type in 127.0.0.1/install.php in my firefox it tries to download the file how do i make it viewable?
[20:21] <Nasra> Itaku...is already installed on my box....and now wanna learn how to run it.....
[20:21] <xb3rt> libcommons-codec-java; libcommons-lang-java; libforms-java; libjaxp1.2-java; librelaxing-datatype-java;
[20:21] <aryr100> ic in the features list for 8.04 B1 a GU for remastering. were is this apt ?
[20:21] <Jack_Sparrow> matthijs, is the old kernel still in your grub list
[20:21] <onofrio> J ubuntu-it
[20:21] <Lizardo> erUSUL: I opened the bash.bashrc and uncommented the lines for auto-completion but it didn't fix my problem
[20:21] <Itaku> Nasra: in terminal wine <file> in nautilus just double click it
[20:22] <Jordan_U> Lizardo, What problem are you having?
[20:22] <Hilikus> hey guys, i configured samba to use "security = user" and created a system user (no login allowed) called music, and in the share i allowed only that user to access it (valid users = music) but it is not working. i can't connect from windows, it keeps asking for a login/pass, any ideas what could be wrong?
[20:22] <Nasra> Itaku okay
[20:22] <cyka> yo
[20:22] <cyka> whers wines C: drive
[20:22] <erUSUL> Lizardo: :( as i said something else is going on and i dunno what it is... checked keyboard settings? also check the gnome-terminal configuration
[20:22] <matthijs> no, only the latest.
[20:22] <Reery> hello, my ubuntu shows a very nasty bug and I need some realy qualified help...
[20:22] <xb3rt> HardyOne: libcommons-codec-java; libcommons-lang-java; libforms-java; libjaxp1.2-java; librelaxing-datatype-java;
[20:22] <Jordan_U> cyka, ~/.wine
[20:22] <Lizardo> Jordan_U: Auto-completion doesn't work in my terminal
[20:22] <dESAASEd> newbie here, installed ubuntu and have windows on a ntfs partition, i have all my pics and so on there, can i read it and write from ubuntu? have searched the forum but noting ..
[20:22] <matthijs> 2.6.22-14
[20:23] <d_tech123> anyone here successfully install the latest mono v1.9-5
[20:23] <cyka> ta joprdon
[20:23] <Jack_Sparrow> dESAASEd, yes.. ntfs read and write are supported
[20:23] <cyka> Jordan_U:
[20:23] <matthijs> I wish i payed attention when the update thingy eagerly upgraded half my system.
[20:23] <Jack_Sparrow> !ntfs-3g
[20:23] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[20:23] <HardyOne> xb3rt, try this sudo apt-get install libcommons-codec-java libcommons-lang-java libforms-java libjaxp1.2-java librelaxing-datatype-java
[20:24] <Jack_Sparrow> matthijs, are you in ubuntu now?
[20:24] <Lizardo> Jodran_U and when I press an function key like UP it inserts some characters instead of bringing up my last input
[20:24] <Jordan_U> Lizardo, Do you have a file '/etc/bash_completion' ?
[20:24] <matthijs> yes
[20:24] <HardyOne> see if it doesnt just install all of them for you
[20:24] <Jack_Sparrow> matthijs,  sudo apt-get install pastebinit  && cat /boot/grub/menu.lst | pastebinit (Provide Pastebin link in channel)
[20:24] <lastelement0> hey all im not getting the ubuntu progress bar at startup. just a black screen. what could have caused this?
[20:24] <Jordan_U> Lizardo, What is the output of "echo $SHELL" ?
[20:24] <Lizardo> Jordan_U: Yes this file exists
[20:24] <dESAASEd> have done that help, but now it says "you are not privileged to mount this volume"
[20:24] <matthijs> jack, I know what my menu.lst looks like.
[20:25] <Lizardo> Jordan_U:/bin/sh
[20:25] <matthijs> that's where I looked before I answered. I think the upgrade thingy overwrites it.
[20:25] <Jordan_U> Lizardo, For some reason you are not using bash, try running "bash"
[20:25] <BillyJoe> dose any one know of a DNA calculater for ubuntu?
[20:25] <Jordan_U> Lizardo, ( /bin/sh links to dash )
[20:25] <Reery> lastelement0 ... maybe it is because of the "splash" in the boot-options
[20:26] <Lizardo> Jordan_U: it works fine now, thx :)
[20:26] <dESAASEd> anyone know why it's not working?
[20:26] <Jordan_U> Lizardo, np
[20:26] <lastelement0> Reery: where can i change this?
[20:26] <xb3rt> HardyOne: It installed all of those lib's except one, then when I went to install the program again I got the same error
[20:27] <Jack_Sparrow> dESAASEd,  http://forum.notebookreview.com/archive/index.php/t-211958.html           read the last entry
[20:27] <Lizardo> Jodran_U: How can I set my terminal to use bash by default?
[20:27] <HardyOne> xb3rt, wich one?
[20:28] <wisnut> ubuntu 7.04 - stopping mysql, running "/etc/init.d# mysql stop" gives me access denied, but logged on as root. . . i know it's a simple solution, but am stumped. . . .
[20:28] <Umka_> mneptok, hellо
[20:28] <xb3rt> librelaxng-datatype-java
[20:28] <matthijs> wisnut, there's different users for mysql
[20:28] <HardyOne> xb3rt, what version of ubuntu you using?
[20:28] <matthijs> go read mysql docs, you have to create myslql users.
[20:28] <izzy_> Ubuntu 7.10 server trying to setup SMTP-AUTH and TLS  when i telnet i dont get the AUTH  anyone have a clue what i need to install or modify ?
[20:28] <xb3rt> HardyOne: I mis spelled it
[20:28] <wisnut> logged in as root, shouldn't i be able to just run "mysql stop" ?
[20:28] <xb3rt> HardyOne: and im using gutsy
[20:28] <matthijs> no
[20:29] <Jordan_U> Lizardo, It should be that way by default, does 'grep <yourusername> /etc/passwd' show /bin/sh or /bin/bash ?
[20:29] <HardyOne> xb3rt, you mispelled it?
[20:29] <Umka_> Салам
[20:29] <matthijs> I think. ok but nobody here knows how to easily get the *older* kernel package, the one I had before this one?
[20:29] <wisnut> on to more docs. . .thx matthijs
[20:29] <Jack_Sparrow> matthijs, did you run the command I gave you
[20:29] <stefg> izzy_: ask #ubuntu-server also, higher hit probability :-)
[20:30] <matthijs> jack, is it really necesary to pastebin my menu.lst? there' snothing in there.
[20:30] <izzy_> stefg i belive i treid that but ill double check that again mabye i missed something :) thanks
[20:30] <Lizardo> Jordan_U: It doesn't show anything
[20:30] <matthijs> I don't have the kernel files, headers and anything.
[20:30] <xb3rt> HardyOne: I did a "sudo apt-get install -f"  and that fixed it
[20:30] <matthijs> would it just work to install the older kernel trough synaptic? what is the one that comes with 7 by default?
[20:31] <HardyOne> xb3rt, great
[20:31] <rex3ci> hello
[20:31] <erUSUL> matthijs: you can install the exact version package name linux-image-2.6.22-14 or whatever (by default linux.image is installed which depends on the last kernel)
[20:31] <kindofabuzz_> if i set up a dynamic dns and a ftp server, do i need to change my host name to my dynamic dns name?
[20:31] <rex3ci> I accidentally changed my hertz (monitor setting) and now my X is broken to the point where I can't login, how do i change this back?
[20:31] <Jordan_U> Lizardo, What about "grep $(whoami) /etc/passwd"  ?
[20:31] <Reery> i need help from a really good ubuntu user right now :(

[20:34] <pcputo> bum? i dont know what that is sry
[20:35] <stefg> !info bum
[20:35] <ubotu> bum (source: bum): graphical runlevel editor. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.1.10-1 (gutsy), package size 82 kB, installed size 532 kB
[20:35] <Jordan_U> Lizardo, Ok, you can change your /etc/passwd by hand to make your default shell /bin/bash or you can do it via System -> Administration -> Users and Groups
[20:35] <Toznoshio> pcputo: bum = Boot-Up Manager
[20:35] <pcputo> where can i access it?
[20:35] <azexian> pcputo: try to boot without splash and vga=*, you can edit it at boot time, just press exit to see grub, then you can press e to see your boot lines, and e again to edit the line, it's the top one
[20:35] <pcputo> terminal?
[20:35] <erUSUL> Jordan_U: chsh is not fashioned this days?
[20:35] <erUSUL> Jordan_U: ;P
[20:35] <Lizardo> Jordan_U: Ah ok I found it thx :)
[20:35] <lastelement0> reery: im in the menu.lst file yet don't see anything in terms of splash
[20:36] <Jordan_U> Lizardo, np
[20:36] <azexian> pcputo: if you would prefer, you can edit /boot/grub/menu.lst as root, run sudo nano /boot/grub/menu.lst
[20:36] <pcputo> ok thanks
[20:36] <Jordan_U> erUSUL, Forgot about that :)
[20:36] <Lizardo> Jordan_U: Will I have to relogin?
[20:37] <azexian> lastelement0: that's the reason you don't see the splash, delete the vga=* too, then you can see why it is taking so long to boot
[20:37] <azexian> pcputo: np
[20:37] <Jordan_U> Lizardo, Any new terminal you start should use /bin/bash, so no
[20:37] <bullgard4> What is normally listed to right of gconf-editor 2.20.0 > / > schemas > apps > metacity > general > audible_bell? '<schema>' or what?
[20:37] <lastelement0> azexian, but what do i delete? don't things with # in front mean they are commented?
[20:38] <azexian> lastelement0: that's right, scroll down, and you will see some without #, one is the kernel you boot, if you need more help, chuck your menu.lst in pastebin, and I will edit it for you
[20:38] <Reery> azexian, so i'm gonna tell you my problem. my ubuntu isn't working any more because of the error "Unknown symbol in module" this shows up when ubuntu tries to load "iwlwifi_rc80211.ko".
[20:38] <d_tech123> Anyone here successfully install the latest mono v1.9-5 on Gutsy?
[20:39] <lastelement0> azexian: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60909/
[20:39] <azexian> Reery: this error occurs when a module is missing certain modules, sometimes modules need other modules to work, although they tend to pull them in, do you actually have wireless?
[20:39] <azexian> lastelement0: ok, looking now
[20:39] <gregorovius> if I generate a ssh key with seahorse, where is it stored?
[20:40] <Reery> yes, a wireless usb-stick
[20:40] <lastelement0> azexian: thank you
[20:40] <pcputo> hmmm what do i have to change on the menu.lst?what i gotta change?
[20:40] <Lizardo> Jordan_U: I set commandline to /bin/bash but it still doesn't seam to use it
[20:40] <lordleemo> bullgard4: <schema>
[20:40] <dESAASEd> thx for the help guys, its fixed!
[20:40] <Jordan_U> Lizardo, When you open a new terminal it still uses /bin/sh ?
[20:40] <azexian> lastelement0: ok, I have just deleted the splash line so you can see what is actually happening when you boot, pasted here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60910/
[20:41] <azexian> Reery: ok, what kind of wireless card?
[20:41] <Lizardo> Jordan_U:Yes
[20:41] <jake2point0> what command do i do if my wireless card is detected, but it cant find dhcp.
[20:41] <Reery> it worked for a while, but since i shut down my pc by the power-button instead of the normal shutdown process, this shows up since then. and now i'm not able to boot it right
[20:41] <Reery> it is a netgear wg111v2
[20:41] <azexian> Reery: so it just hangs and doesn't boot?
[20:41] <bullgard4> lordleemo: Have you got an idea what to put ther instead of <schema> so that I will hav an audible bell?
[20:41] <lastelement0> azexian: thanks im going to reboot and see if it worke
[20:41] <lastelement0> d
[20:42] <azexian> lastelement0: ok =)
[20:42] <computa_mike> hey buys - got an interesting problem - tring to get a wireless keyboard and mouse working under ubuntu gutsy on a Dell Latitude D800.  Anyone had similar issues.  the keyboard works fine - the mouse just refuses to work
[20:42] <computa_mike> buys = guys
[20:42] <Jordan_U> Lizardo, odd, what is the output of "grep $(whoami) /etc/passwd" now ?
[20:42] <lordleemo> bullgard4: no idea m8
[20:42] <Reery> yes, i've to press ctrl+alt+del, then it will load untill the login screen (not the graphical one)
[20:42] <bullgard4> lordleemo: Thank you for commenting.
[20:42] <Lizardo> Jordan_U: It's /bin/bash now
[20:43] <azexian> Reery: btw, if you type my name in front of your message (type azex, then press tab to autocomplete) they glow blue so I can see them =)
[20:43] <poseidon> I installed hardy heron, and my internet connection worked great, but when I went to reboot it didn't even give me the option to enable wireless networks, nor did it give me the option to manually edit my wireless networks.  however if I went to admin->network info (I think it was that) it showed me the preveus network I used to connect to the interenet.
[20:43] <Reery> ok, I'll do so
[20:43] <stefg> !hardy | poseidon
[20:43] <ubotu> poseidon: 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
[20:44] <azexian> Reery: thanks =) ok, what happens if you boot without the wireless usb inserted?
[20:44] <Reery> azexian: just the same
[20:44] <lastelement0> azexian: now i see a text version of the boot up. as in it shows me what is loading
[20:44] <nathan__> My alt-tab is messed up. It just shows the frames of the windows with nothing inside them
[20:44] <Vermux> how do I create the icon on the taskbar that switches between languages?
[20:44] <Acoustyk> can I have two separate gnome sessions?
[20:45] <Acoustyk> that I can choose from at login?
[20:45] <azexian> lastelement0: that's the idea, now you can see anything that is failing to load, and hanging, 2 mins is quite slow, although I never did ask the speed of your machine =)
[20:45] <lastelement0> azexian: thats not the issue. my machine loads fine
[20:45] <azexian> Reery: that is odd, when you get to the shell, can you run /etc/init.d/gdm start for me, so we can see what the issue is
[20:45] <lastelement0> its more that i don't see the ubuntu progress bar
[20:45] <azexian> Reery: that will try and open command
[20:46] <Acoustyk> is there an ubuntu GUI channel?
[20:46] <azexian> lastelement0: oh, my appologies, I mis read that, in that case, you will want to keep that splash line, have you changed your theme?
[20:46] <kindofabuzz_> anyone know anything about proftp?
[20:46] <Reery> azexian: when i try to start gdm it says "read only system". the .Xauthority is blocked or so
[20:46] <lastelement0> azexian: yes i have
[20:47] <Jordan_U> Lizardo, I guess logging out and back in again can't hurt ( possibly gnome-terminal is inheriting the default shell from gnome's environment? )
[20:47] <azexian> Reery: ah, that explains a lot, your harddrive has errors then, so it has mounted read only, we can repair them however, but the wifi card has nothing to do with this, you have damaged your hdd I'm afraid
[20:47] <Jordan_U> Acoustyk, You can ( I don't know how off the top of my head though )
[20:47] <Prefix> !pastebin
[20:47] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic)
[20:47] <zacky> hi everybody, my screen went blank every 10 minutes or so, is really annoying when watching movies, where can i change it?
[20:47] <azexian> lastelement0: ok, well that hasn't worked, clearly, try doing a quick test with splashy -you
[20:48] <Reery> azexian: i tried to remount "/" with rw-rights, then i can start gdm... but with a very strange issue
[20:48] <bartmon> Hi again. Can I change the language for Gnome on a per user basis?
[20:48] <azexian> lastelement0: actually, it might not be splashy anymore
[20:48] <Acoustyk> jordan_U: Any idea where to look? I googled it with no luck
[20:48] <Jordan_U> zacky, System -> Preferences Power Management ( or screensaver )
[20:48] <azexian> Reery: yes?
[20:48] <tsh> Hey guys I am running ubuntu gutsy, has anyone had any success on installing monodevelop on it ?  (I have previously tried with debian and I completly trashed my box, so i've since installed ubuntu) anyone have it working ?
[20:48] <azexian> lastelement0: that is meant to be the letter, not word, autocomplete :p
[20:49] <_Tux_> hello ubuntuers!!!!!!!!!
[20:49] <fbc> Does anyone put out an Ubuntu Themepack? I want to download pack of the more popular themes, icon packs and backgrounds, instead of going hunting for everything online, I would even appreciate a utility that would rotate the themes every month or so. So I don't get bored. Or maybe just rotate the backgrounds.
[20:49] <dell500> I was just wondering how to get a Toshiba Regza 36" hdtv to work with ubuntu... do i just need the sizes and refresh rates for the resoluions and put them in xorg.conf?
[20:49] <tcpdumpgod> What do you mean by "an ubuntu GUI channel"?
[20:49] <joy__> Anybody can help? I added another net card and now I can't up VPN
[20:49] <Prefix> When trying to play 'frets on fire' i get this in the terminal [http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60911/]. The game crashes from a black screen to my desktop. Any ideas - cheers
[20:49] <Reery> azexian: i found myself on an empty desktop, my mouse didn't work, some messages showed that programs like "gnome user switchig" and so on didn't work anymore
[20:49] <_Tux_> any good software to monitor my CPU termpratures?
[20:49] <tcpdumpgod> _Tux_, lmsensors
[20:49] <lastelement0> azexian: not sure what you mean
[20:49] <Acoustyk> an IRC channel specified to GUI topics
[20:49] <tcpdumpgod> _Tux_, lm-sensors
[20:49] <tcpdumpgod> Acoustyk, no there isnt... whats the problem?
[20:50] <sk8ball> where can i change the font for ubuntu's default  theme -- light colored fonts are near impossible to read
[20:50] <sk8ball> ???
[20:50] <azexian> Reery: that doesn't sound great, restart, so it can mouse ro, then you can repair the disk
[20:50] <Jordan_U>  Acoustyk, Probably not the cleanest or easiest way to do it but you could model something off of the old XGL separate session tutorials ( which are now thankfully all but obsolete :)
[20:50] <xb3rt> I've got alien arena 08 installed and it shows under my games menu, but the minute I click the icon to launch it my system reboots.....why is this
[20:50] <kaelkies> he poiZen, auch hier?
[20:50] <Acoustyk> there really is no problem I just want to be able to choose from two gnome sessions at login
[20:50] <Reery> azexian: i tried also fsck, it found some errors, but still the same issues
[20:50] <azexian> lastelement0: did you run a command to change your theme?
[20:50] <zacky> Jordan_U: i tried those, but still went blank after certain interval
[20:50] <_Tux_> tcpdumpgod : installing from synaptic,gonna give it a try. 10x
[20:50] <lastelement0> azexian: dont really remember to be honest
[20:50] <sk8ball> Where can I change the font for the default ubuntu X theme??
[20:50] <tcpdumpgod> Acoustyk, why can you not? Just run each X server on a different screen.
[20:51] <sk8ball> a lot of the lighter colors are near impossible to read
[20:51] <tcpdumpgod> _Tux_, search for "lm-sensors"
[20:51] <azexian> lastelement0: well you can restore the original one if you like...

[20:51] <Lizardo> Jordan_U: ok it works fine now
[20:51] <Lizardo> Jordan_U: thx
[20:51] <_Tux_> tcpdumpgod : ok installed it,but where can I find it and run it?
[20:51] <Jordan_U> Lizardo, np
[20:51] <Itaku> when i type in 127.0.0.1/install.php in my firefox it tries to download the file how do i make it viewable????????????????
[20:51] <sk8ball> jordan, yah yah i know.... shit is scrolling fairly fast though, so ... shr00g
[20:52] <tcpdumpgod> _Tux_, you have to run it from the command line. you're going to have to run "sensors-detect" 1st though.

[20:52] <computa_mike> hey guys - got an interesting problem - tring to get a wireless keyboard and mouse working under ubuntu gutsy on a Dell Latitude D800.  Anyone had similar issues.  the keyboard works fine - the mouse just refuses to work
[20:52] <Scunizi> Itaku, what are you trying to view.. what does the install.php belong to.. ? a CMS program?
[20:52] <xb3rt> computa_mike: try doing a google on the mouse driver
[20:52] <kbrosnan> Itaku: you need to fix your web server to not treat .php files as plain text
[20:52] <tcpdumpgod> computa_mike, you need to configure it correctly in xorg.conf.
[20:53] <tsh> Does anyone here have mono running on ubuntu gutsy successfully?
[20:53] <Itaku> kbrooks: how do i do that?
[20:53] <kbrosnan> Itaku: google apache mime type php
[20:53] <azexian> Reery: well you might have broken your hdd I'm sorry to say, keep trying with fsck though, you can also get repair disks, but you might have just broken it, I suggest you backup your important data, if you want to keep trying, just so you don't lose anything
[20:53] <computa_mike> tcpdumpgod : I have had a crack at setting up the mouse using the /dev/mouse3 device - that's what I see it connect as - only no jo
[20:53] <azexian> lastent: try doing that, it should allow you to change back to the original
[20:53] <kbrooks> Itaku, mishilighted?
[20:53] <Scunizi> Itaku, you might just need to access it with http://localhost:<insert port here>
[20:53] <tcpdumpgod> computa_mike, whats the model of your mouse?
[20:54] <lastent> Azer, are you talking to me?
[20:54] <computa_mike> tcpdumpgod:  it's a cheap Tesco technika mouse and keyboard Desk set (you know - the type that uses a USB Wireless dongle thing)
[20:54] <azexian> lastent: nope, proberly not, you are autocompleted though, sorry
[20:54] <d_tech123> tsh - I am in the same boat -- trying to get the latest mono working...
[20:54] <tcpdumpgod> computa_mike, i need a model number off the bottom of the mouse to work with.
[20:54] <Reery> azexian: the disk is about 1 month old, but thank you for the tip, this sounds like the best reason for this issue
[20:54] <_Tux_> tcpdumpgod : well I cant find it.
[20:55] <computa_mike> tcpdumpgod : TDSET03
[20:55] <tcpdumpgod> _Tux_, you cant find what?
[20:55] <tsh> d_tech123, ahhh really... well, i'm looking for advice, whats the best way to do this? 1) through packages from apt-get repos, 2) the gui installer from their site .... ? MY attempt in debian was via the gui installer on mono's site.
[20:55] <_Tux_> tcpdumpgod: how to run the lm-sensors
[20:55] <tcpdumpgod> _Tux_, i just told you what to do... you have to run "sensors-detect" 1st.
[20:55] <d_tech123> tsh - The version of mono in the repository is woefully out of date.
[20:55] <azexian> Reery: I'm not just pulling strings, the fact that you can't repair it isn't good, someitmes a hard restart can ruin them, although don't give up, backup, then try some repair disks
[20:55] <_Tux_> tcpdumpgod: I typed it in the console,no go
[20:56] <d_tech123> tsh - download the latest from the mono web site and try to create a "parallel" installation (according to them)
[20:56] <tsh> d_tech123, That could be with very good reason... i'm not a .net/c# developer what so ever.  I'm installing it to learn..
[20:56] <_Tux_> ok...found it
[20:56] <Jordan_U> tsh, I would use the packages in the repos
[20:56] <_Tux_> sorry
[20:56] <tcpdumpgod> hold up _Tux_
[20:56] <tcpdumpgod> okay
[20:56] <_Tux_> tcpdumpgod : found it... its ok
[20:56] <_Tux_> tcpdumpgod: thanks alot!
[20:56] <tsh> Jordan_U, Thats what i'm thinking...
[20:56] <Reery> azexian: yeah, i'll do so. i tried to reinstall ubuntu, but came along with another issue...
[20:56] <tcpdumpgod> no problem _Tux_
[20:56] <tsh> Jordan_U, Do you have it working?
[20:56] <Jordan_U> tsh, Unless they are an older version than the one you need, in which case try getdeb.org
[20:56] <azexian> Reery: what issue?
[20:56] <Jordan_U> tsh, No
[20:57] <tsh> ok
[20:57] <Jordan_U> tsh, Never tried
[20:57] <d_tech123> tsh -- if you are just learning, then download monodevelop from the repositories -- thats the gnome ide for mono/C#
[20:57] <tcpdumpgod> Im not too sure on that one computa_mike... get a less crappy mouse.
[20:57] <capiCrimm> anyone know of a music player that allows you control the playback speed?
[20:57] <capiCrimm> *simple
[20:58] <tcpdumpgod> capiCrimm, you can change the sample rate w/Audacity.
[20:58] <capiCrimm> tcpdumpgod, yeah, that's why I threw in simple. Using Audacities interface is a bit of overkill.
[20:58] <azexian> capiCrimm: if you press the ] button well on mplayer, that should do it
[20:58] <computa_mike> tcpdumpgod : I thought I'd ask as I can sse the thing appear when I view the /dev/input are - but it's just not working on the desktop - I think you may be onto something there - I have a logitech one that can try.
[20:58] <Jordan_U> capiCrimm, VLC
[20:58] <Lizardo> What package do I need if I want to create a program using hardware accelerated OpenGL?
[20:58] <computa_mike> tcpdumpgod : thanks any way...
[20:58] <Itaku> how do i make apache not treat php files as text files????????????????
[20:59] <tcpdumpgod> no problem computa_mike
[20:59] <Reery> azexian: inserting the 64 bit ubuntu cd.. loading, just the same way as i did the last time: resolution 1280x1024, nosplash bootoption, then after some minutes it says that my screen is not supported (or so...) i've to choose the resolution 800x600 with 61 hz, when i press enter there is a black screen. I've tried another screen instead of the plug'n'play, but the black screen shows up, too
[20:59] <tsh> d_tech123, i did that on debian and it messed my box up will it just work 'out the box' with the repos on ubuntu?
[20:59] <d_tech123> Jordan_U - did you mean getdeb.net ??  getdeb.org is a spam site
[20:59] <tcpdumpgod> try jackin with the settings in xorg.conf
[20:59] <tcpdumpgod> it may be /dev/imps2 or something
[20:59] <Jordan_U> Lizardo, Depends on what language you are going to be programming in
[20:59] <Lizardo> Jordan_U: oh sry it's c++
[20:59] <Jordan_U> d_tech123, Yes, thank you
[20:59] <tcpdumpgod> capiCrimm, i dont know a lite program that'll slow it down.
[20:59] <capiCrimm> azexian, thanks, exactly what I needed
[20:59] <d_tech123> tsh - haven't tried it...sorry...
[20:59] <Itaku> how do i make apache not treat php files as text files??????????????????????
[20:59] <azexian> Reery: try it again without your hard drive plugged in

[21:05] <shachaf> The way I have things set up at the moment, fglrx works when I use aticonfig --initial=dual-head, but not when I enable Xinerama in xorg.conf (it switches back to Mesa). Is there some other option I should enable?
[21:05] <Jaymac> Finnish, go to #ubuntu+1 and ask for help :)
[21:05] <Jordan_U> !hardy | Finnish
[21:05] <ubotu> Finnish: 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
[21:06] <dell500> can someone help me on how to get 1080p to work?
[21:06] <zagabog> pcputo, vlc is good, very reliable, doesn't matter what it looks like if you're viewing full screen video
[21:06] <azexian> Shadow420: by default, grub will simply load either GNU/Linux, or it will load windows boot loader (chainload), but if you wanna use only windows boto loader, search ntldr linux on google
[21:06] <capiCrimm> Finnish, firefox doesn't play wmvs for me on stable. I just right click and download. :p
[21:06] <Prefix> vlc is the best media player in exsistence
[21:06] <pcputo> ok..one more thing, may i disable the swap disk?i think its making my boot too slow
[21:06] <capiCrimm> then file a bug report, though
[21:06] <azexian> pcputo: I like the look of mplayer personally, might remind some of powerdvd
[21:06] <dell500> i agree with Prefix
[21:07] <Scunizi> pcputo, swap isn't making it slow.. it's rarely used.
[21:07] <julian_> hi where can i get the kernel source 2.6.22-14.46
[21:07] <azexian> pcputo: don't know how swap could slow it down, but you can run swapon and swapoff, or edit /etc/fstab to disable it entirly, although it's VERY unlikly that it's slowing it down
[21:07] <pcputo> hmm mplayer i dont like it..
[21:07] <Prefix> and personally i love the look of vlc, but i guess my theme helps
[21:07] <orkun> any place to play around with the toolbars other than preferences > appearance > interface? formated and now nautilus, deluge and rhythmbox toolbar appearance is different
[21:08] <Jaymac> julian_, if you have that kernel installed just install the linux-source (I think) metapackage
[21:08] <julian_> i want to compile my own kernel and with the package "linux-source-2.6.22" it wont compile with the config out of my boot folder...
[21:08] <julian_> Jaymac: i have huge problems compiling it with the old conf
[21:09] <kindofabuzz_> proftpd and dynadns..help!
[21:09] <azexian> julian_ you can type make oldconfig to drag in your old config, to get your source type 'sudo apt-get install linux-source' that'll drag in whatever uname gives you
[21:09] <julian_> azexian, i did that but without success
[21:09] <julian_> azexian: compiling always fails sometimes here sometimes there
[21:09] <azexian> julian_: well we can't help you without knowing what's going wrong!
[21:10] <noelferreira> how can i use gnome-dictionary-applet to translate words from italian to portuguese?
[21:10] <julian_> the problem is while compiling its sometimes an error on: bitmap.o sometimes on nets and sometimes anywhere else
[21:10] <navaburo_> I essentially devastated my wireless driver trying to do a custom install. How do I restore it? (there does not appear to be a package)
[21:11] <azexian> navaburo_: what card do you have?
[21:11] <Shadow420> no I have the floop img how do I make a bootable floppy of Super Grub
[21:11] <Shadow420> now*
[21:12] <gullstad> How can I burn a img file whit a terminal onto a dvd?
[21:12] <digitalslavery> any raid 5/LVM gurus hanging out?
[21:12] <neopsyche> is there a GUI based download manager that allows for setting the rate at which a file downloads?
[21:12] <erUSUL> gullstad: what type of image? iso?
[21:12] <azexian> julian_: well if you look into the requirements first, it should be ok, but you need to make sure you have all the right stuff installed, it tends to be in a file called DEPENDENCIES or sometimes just INSTALL or README
[21:12] <Shadow420> floppy img
[21:12] <gullstad> erUSUL: img, isnt there a program for all of then? :P
[21:12] <gullstad> -*them*
[21:12] <digitalslavery> I need some help putting finishing touches on these badboys
[21:13] <erUSUL> !iso | gullstad
[21:13] <ubotu> gullstad: To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[21:13] <julian_> azexian, the problem is i got it working one time, it compiled and thats it. never again not with a clean and redownload the package reunpack it or anything else
[21:13] <erUSUL> gullstad: http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion <<< convert the image to iso
[21:13] <julian_> azexian, so it should work but it doesnt
[21:13] <noelferreira> how can i use gnome-dictionary-applet to translate words from italian to portuguese?
[21:13] <Shadow420> how can a make a real floppy out of an Image of a floppy
[21:14] <azexian> when you last compiled, you proberly had all the requirements installed, now you don't :p
[21:14] <_Zombie_> anyone using a mouse with more than 9 keys and got all keys to work correctly ?
[21:14] <orudie> how can i add a user with all permissions to a specific folder with all it's subfolders ?
[21:14] <orudie> and lock this user in this folder
[21:14] <_Zombie_> otherwise asked, is there a driver for ubuntu which supports the mx518 mouse with all its keys?
[21:14] <danand_> Shadow420 - use the dd command - dd if=floppy_image of=/dev/fd0 ....
[21:15] <erUSUL> gullstad: then use "growisofs -dvd-compat -Z /dev/dvd=image.iso" where /dev/dvd is your dvdrw device file
[21:15] <atrophic> is there a way to get my D-Link DWL-520 E1 wireless card to work on edubuntu 7.10 without internet access?
[21:15] <azexian> orudie: you can set that folder to there home, then chmod 777 -r it, so that everyone can write to it, and everything else to 700 to someone else, so they are the only one to be able to access it
[21:15] <mike__> any one available to help me ?
[21:15] <digitalslavery> basically i just finished following the Ubuntu FileSErverWithRaid instructions but somehow missed a step

[21:16] <Lizardo> How can I set mounts to be mounted on startup?
[21:16] <azexian> mike__: take a look at acetoneiso, it is like daemon tools for windows, converts everything to everything :p
[21:16] <dan__> hey i have a fluxbuntu question if anyone can answer

[21:17] <lgierth> ehm. short question not directly related to ubuntu, only to understand the quotes at bash.org (i'm german). is wang the body part i think of?
[21:17] <mike__> im getting 8.04
[21:17] <mike__> :D
[21:17] <azexian> julian_: from the way you are tweaking, it seems you'd be better suited for something such as gentoo, or lfs :p
[21:17] <Emilian> wang = teil
[21:17] <atrophic> lgierth, most likely
[21:18] <lgierth> okay, thanks :D
[21:18] <azexian> mike__: wait 31 days, and it's offically released, you're not that much ahead of the rest :P
[21:18] <julian_> no gentoo is to heavy for me i started linux/ubuntu 4 weeks ago.. but nearly 24h a day and i need a own kernel for some things ;/

[21:23] <Sancho-> marjan: are you sure you need drivers? I have a nokia too, no drivers needed
[21:23] <orkun> just asking because my family is finding interest in ubuntu(finally :>) - can ubuntu installer resize partitions without data loss like partition magic? or do i still need to backup resize apply backup install then? if the first is true i could just force them to install ubuntu on their own over the phone - otherwise i would accompany them through installation to ensure maximum ubuntu impact
[21:23] <marjan> Sancho-:  what kind of nokia you have

[21:25] <mike__> is there any Avi to DVD converting applications for ubuntu ?
[21:25] <Sancho-> Internal Server Error > ok... :) thx ubotu
[21:25] <Sancho->  :)
[21:25] <orkun> ricanelite, easiest would be sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras (or kubuntu) - it installs everything u could need like flash - but might install too much for your taste

[21:30] <danand_> technel - i've been having a few probs with google lately.... very slow... sometimes won't load etc :(
[21:30] <Monkey_arma> lhoerste i think you can use "dpkg-reconfigure"

[21:30] <jblparisi> Ubuntu 8.10 is stunning :)
[21:30] <poseidon> Whats the cli?
[21:31] <linxeh> technel: maybe your nameservers are incorrect - ISPs change the nameservers they deal out from time to time, maybe you are using old ones that aren't working properly / overloaded
[21:31] <danand_> technel - ?? dunno - just use ask instead :)

[21:32] <linxeh> technel: I don't know - I'd check to see what is in /etc/resolv.conf and compare with what your router is using

[21:46] <linxeh> is anyone here using truecrypt? I've just tried to create a 20GB encrypted file with ext3 and its taking an age to format
[21:46] <Chris_____> I have searched Google, Forums, and Wiki!
[21:46] <Chris_____> Nobody is able to give answers on this Channel either.
[21:47] <busan> hello
[21:47] <busan> good morning
[21:47] <linxeh> as in, its been formatting the file for 40+ mins (formatting as vfat took seconds)
[21:47] <DRebellion> Chris_____, be sure to try again some other time. People are always coming and going.
[21:47] <bobertdos> Pardon me, does anyone know if there is a way to directly type unicode characters into Linux like there is with Windows with Alt+code (on the number bad)
[21:47] <Chris_____> DRebellion: I understand, but really, i'm about to give up on Ubuntu.
[21:47] <Jack_Sparrow> Chris_____, At start or install press F6 and remove Quiet and Splash from the command line. If it still fails.. Repeat and after removing quiet and splash add noapic acpi=off before the "--"

[21:48] <ubotu> Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://nl.releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive - PLEASE use the !torrents to download Gutsy, and help keeping the servers' load low!
[21:48] <gullstad> !img2iso | gullstad
[21:48] <Jack_Sparrow> Chris_____, do you get to a screen that says start or install?
[21:49] <Chris_____> Yes.
[21:49] <linxeh> Chris_____: and thats by clicking the install icon on the live desktop, or ?
[21:49] <orudie> julian_: got it
[21:49] <wubrgamer> does anyone here use fluxbuntu ?
[21:49] <Jack_Sparrow> What command modifiers have you used to try and get past the hardware issue
[21:49] <julian_> orudie ok ;)
[21:49] <Chris_____> Oh, no. When the CD boots, I hit enter on installing it with the options noapic
[21:49] <Chris_____> It shows the load bar, then it drops me off on BusyBox.
[21:49] <pimplife> julian_:  couldnt find the option whats it called
[21:50] <linxeh> Chris_____: can you get the live cd to a desktop ?
[21:50] <jblparisi> 8.10 a little buggy, but i am loving it.
[21:50] <Chris_____> No.
[21:50] <Jack_Sparrow> Chris_____, are you removing splash and quiet.. what about acpi=off
[21:50] <busan> if i download ubuntu with axel downloader?
[21:50] <linxeh> Chris_____: what machine are you trying to install on out of interest ?
[21:50] <Chris_____> I tried acpi=off and it still does it. I didn't try removing splash and quiet.
[21:50] <linxeh> busan: with a what ?
[21:50] <Jack_Sparrow> 32 bit or 64
[21:50] <Chris_____> 32 bit
[21:50] <linxeh> busan: what is "axel" ?
[21:51] <Jack_Sparrow> Chris_____, At start or install press F6 and remove Quiet and Splash from the command line. If it still fails.. Repeat and after removing quiet and splash add noapic acpi=off before the "--"
[21:51] <pimplife> how do i change my desktop from 2 to 4
[21:51] <huy> help, i have no sound on my machine after installing 7.10
[21:51] <wubrgamer> anyone use fluxBOX ? or openbox ?
[21:51] <busan> PC (Intel x86) desktop CD
[21:51] <julian_> pimplife: sorry im on a german ubuntu and at the moment on a xubuntu, but i know on ubuntu gutsy there is a right click then something like settings and then "how many rows" "how many fields" or something sorry for not beeing exactly
[21:51] <Chris_____> Jack, I will.
[21:51] <Chris_____> Trying, now.
[21:51] <linxeh> pimplife: right click on the desktops panel and select properties
[21:51] <Chris_____> exit
[21:51] <orudie> i have created a user name for a friend to connect to my linux box, is there a way i could monitor his activity ?
[21:51] <Jack_Sparrow> Chris_____, add both of those commands, also if installing on a Deell in particular, you need to burn the ubuntu cd at 4x...  it does matter even if the md5 checks out
[21:51] <pimplife> oh ok
[21:51] <DRebellion> orudie, via ssh?
[21:51] <busan> ubuntu soo powerfull??/
[21:52] <linxeh> busan: if you are having this much trouble perhaps you should consider getting someone to help you
[21:52] <orudie> DRebellion: yes
[21:52] <DRebellion> orudie, take a look at his ~/.bash_history
[21:52] <digitalslavery> anyone have some experience with the LVM?
[21:53] <busan> ada orang indonesia gak yaaaahhh
[21:53] <orudie> DRebellion: is there a way to look at it live?
[21:53] <danand_> pimplife - do you mean the number of virtual desktops. If so right click on the workspace switcher on the taskbar and then click preferences...
[21:53] <Jack_Sparrow> busan, Did you have a support question.
[21:53] <nathan__> Could I get some help making a vmdk file for my existing vista partition?
[21:53] <DRebellion> orudie, =/ you could use the less command, i think there is a key to refresh it
[21:53] <orudie> how would i change a users's password ?
[21:53] <busan> I want use ubuntu HH, but only update with internet
[21:53] <Fackamato> Hi. I recently upgraded from 2GB to 3GB of RAM on my computer (Pentium 4, Northwood core), and Ubuntu is _dog slow_. There is nothing in the logs. How slow? It boots up in 15 minutes. _but_ if I use the kernel parameter mem=2048M, everything flies again.
[21:53] <Fackamato> Do I need a new kernel?
[21:54] <bobertdos> typing unicode characters without the character map--anyone know how?
[21:54] <linxeh> bobertdos: press the keys on the keyboard
[21:54] <Jack_Sparrow> Fackamato, for the boot issue, remove splash from grub...
[21:54] <DRebellion> orudie, login as the user and use the passwd command
[21:54] <Fackamato> Jack_Sparrow: It doesn't matter if I boot with splash, or anthing else (even tried single), everything's slow.

[21:54] <busan> what is command to erasse a file with console?
[21:55] <Xtahc> Ubuntu uses tgz or rpm ??
[21:55] <linxeh> busan: rm
[21:55] <linxeh> Xtahc: .deb
[21:55] <erUSUL> Xtahc: deb
[21:55] <julian_> busan: rm
[21:55] <Fackamato> Xtahc: deb
[21:55] <erUSUL> !deb | Xtahc
[21:55] <ubotu> Xtahc: deb is the Debian package format, also used by Ubuntu. To install .deb files, simply double-click (in Ubuntu) or click (in Kubuntu) on them to start the GDebi utility.
[21:55] <DRebellion> busan, rm
[21:55] <Fackamato> busan: rm
[21:55] <Xtahc> deb ??
[21:55] <bobertdos> Haha, I mean, you know how in Windows you can type characters but using alt+code (using the number pad)?
[21:55] <busan> THANKS
[21:55] <Jack_Sparrow> Fackamato, which release are you using?
[21:55] <DRebellion> Xtahc, equivalent of rpm
[21:55] <Fackamato> Jack_Sparrow: 7.10
[21:55] <bobertdos> Is there anyway to do that in Linux?
[21:55] <huy> does anyone know how to fix the sound problem?
[21:55] <Piffer> Can anyone recommend a firewall for Gutsy? Or maybe a frontend for manage IPTables?
[21:56] <julian_> Piffer: you dont need a frewall
[21:56] <Jack_Sparrow> huy, HAve you gone through our sound troubleshooting guide?
[21:56] <busan> IS HH stable?
[21:56] <Xtahc> Drebellion, is there a way to switch rpm or tgz package into deb ?
[21:56] <Jack_Sparrow> busan, hh is beta
[21:56] <Piffer> julian: ok...
[21:56] <DRebellion> julian_, of course you do
[21:56] <huy> Jack_sparrow: where is it?
[21:56] <astro76> Piffer: firestarter is an iptables frontend
[21:56] <DRebellion> !firewall | Piffer
[21:56] <ubotu> Piffer: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[21:56] <julian_> DRebellion, for what?
[21:56] <busan> what is diferent?
[21:56] <Jack_Sparrow> Xtahc, alien but it is dangerous and seldom works right
[21:56] <DRebellion> julian_, security
[21:56] <julian_> not for a desktop env
[21:56] <Piffer> Thanks! :-)
[21:57] <Jack_Sparrow> !sound
[21:57] <ubotu> 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/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[21:57] <Fackamato> Jack_Sparrow:  CONFIG_HIGHMEM4G=y is enabled but I still have the issue
[21:57] <Fackamato> must I perhaps enable 64gig?
[21:57] <DRebellion> julian_, how do you know Piffer is using a desktop enviroment?
[21:57] <julian_> an ubuntu without a firewall is much securer as a not well set up firewall
[21:57] <julian_> uhm sorry my fault just guessing
[21:57] <Xtahc> so i can't install an rpm or tgz package without converting it into a deb ?
[21:57] <Chamunks> Is there a way to do a clean upgrade of ubuntu without having to download and burn the new iso upon release?
[21:58] <busan> can use sudo to instal?
[21:58] <Jack_Sparrow> julian_, an ubuntu with only standard iptables is much securer as a not well set up firewall
[21:58] <noelferreira> how can i use gnome-dictionary-applet to translate words from italian to english?
[21:58] <Xtahc> well busan am on ppc
[21:58] <wormintrude> Chamunks, update-manager -d
[21:58] <Piffer> I have to say, I'm mighty impressed by Ubuntu. Very user friendly for noobs like me, as well as a platform you can develop 1337 skills with :-)
[21:58] <linxeh> Jack_Sparrow: err, thats rubbish
[21:58] <Xtahc> so its not easy
[21:58] <DRebellion> Chamunks, techinically, you can do sudo apt-get dist-upgrade, but it is highly unrecommended
[21:58] <julian_> Jack_Sparrow, thats what i wanted to say
[21:58] <Jack_Sparrow> Xtahc, tgz may have what you want inside.. no way for us to know
[21:58] <Chamunks> wormintrude, ill look into that thanks
[21:58] <wormintrude> Chamunks, or adept_manager --distro-upgrade-devel if ure on kde
[21:58] <RobineD_> Sorry, I'd like to connect with a server who is not in the list (I'm frenh sorry for my english) how to add one?
[21:58] <Stepa1> For some reason, today my sound does not work
[21:58] <linxeh> Jack_Sparrow: unless you mean a poor software firewall, which should never be called such a thing
[21:58] <Jack_Sparrow> linxeh, Excuse me..
[21:58] <Xtahc> Jack_sparrow ?
[21:58] <Xtahc> what ya mean ?
[21:58] <wormintrude> Chamunks, u'll need root of course
[21:58] <Chamunks> DRebellion, ill look into this aswell
[21:59] <Chamunks> wormintrude, oh of course
[21:59] <busan> How to make my gutsi more powerfull???
[21:59] <Jack_Sparrow> linxeh, The standard installation is much better than any iptable manager masquarading as a firewall, if it is not setup correctly
[21:59] <Stepa1> Today my sound does not work, can anyone help?
[22:00] <busan> stepa1: ugrade
[22:00] <Jack_Sparrow> linxeh, YEs, I am talking about firestarter or guarddog
[22:00] <Stepa1> busan: it worked just yesterday (do you mean a hardware upgrade or software)?
[22:00] <Chamunks> DRebellion, Well the reason why im looking for this is because i love the fresh install of ubuntu every six months but dont want to go through the whole trouble of reinstalling every release.
[22:00] <RobineD_> hum
[22:01] <DRebellion> Chamunks, that's the only way to do it without a hitch
[22:01] <busan> likely your system corupt
[22:01] <Jack_Sparrow> linxeh, time and again I see people install what they think is a software firewall and they have done a poor job and are less secure than if they had installed nothing
[22:01] <leo_rockw> hello everyone
[22:01] <Chamunks> DRebellion, just 7.04 i believe it was my computer finally was compatible so its getting better every relase but yeah..
[22:02] <busan> i dont know, because my festy have no sound yet
[22:02] <julian_> Jack_Sparrow, mostly old windows user. thinking they are in the need of a desktop firewall on ubuntu too
[22:02] <wormintrude> chamunks, fresh install --> backup to a virtual pc or just dump / onto an external hd (thru livecd) and restore every often as u like
[22:02] <Jack_Sparrow> julian_, agreed
[22:02] <leo_rockw> i have been using the fgrlx drivers and i wanted to switch to the ati non-restricted drivers. i edited xorg.conf and changed fgrlx for ati, now the mesa drivers kicked in. how do i actually make the ati drivers the default?
[22:03] <julian_> Jack_Sparrow, i know about that, cause i was thinking the same way and read alot about the firewalls on ubuntu and iptables and read alot of discussions for and against iptable managers
[22:03] <Chamunks> wormintrude, sounds like a great idea like basically all i need to do is backup my /home/ /var/www/ and mysql DB's the rest i dont mind reconfigging every upgrade
[22:03] <Piffer> Whats a good VM app for Ubuntu? VirtualBox?
[22:03] <precisodeajuda> I need some help
[22:03] <julian_> Piffer: i love VB
[22:03] <precisodeajuda> about apt-file
[22:03] <Piffer> Good, then I'll test it out.
[22:04] <leo_rockw> julian_: visual basic!!!??? lol
[22:04] <precisodeajuda> somebody?
[22:04] <noelferreira> how can i use gnome-dictionary-applet to translate words from italian to english?
[22:04] <julian_> Piffer: for windows it has some cool features
[22:04] <Jack_Sparrow> leo_rockw, vbox
[22:04] <Chamunks> wormintrude, i do have a nice backup server allways on running some network shares n such so i guess i could rsync those dir's to there I'm just sketchy about mysql DB's
[22:04] <julian_> leo_rockw, no no.. i meant basic not visual basic sorry ;)
[22:04]  * leo_rockw was kidding
[22:04] <leo_rockw> julian_: oh, everything makes sense now
[22:04] <julian_> hehehe
[22:04] <precisodeajuda> support plz
[22:04] <Piffer> Also, is there a free version of TripWire, or something that will do the same? (don't ask why I need it, cause at this point I have no clue...)
[22:05] <julian_> precisodeajuda, money pls ;)
[22:05] <thisdyu> hey guys i was just trying to configre kismet when i get this error: configure: error: Unable to find libncurses or libcurses
[22:05] <thisdyu>  any suggestions?
[22:05] <Jack_Sparrow> leo_rockw, YOu may want to /join #Compiz on setting up that video card/driver
[22:05] <dopievoli> hello I have the problem of GDM does not exist this happened after I added a user what should I do?
[22:05] <julian_> Piffer: i have no clue what tripwire is ;)
[22:05] <leo_rockw> thank you Jack_Sparrow
[22:05] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[22:05] <julian_> thisdyu: try installing libncurses
[22:05] <Piffer> it lets you know if any files have been modified etc... same as file audit in Windows
[22:06] <julian_> thisdyu, apt-get install libncurses5 and if that isnt working libncurses5-dev
[22:06] <DRebellion> thisdyu, you need the xxxxx-dev package
[22:06] <precisodeajuda> when I try to instal any package, the aplication pauses
[22:06] <precisodeajuda> =/
[22:07] <skavez> hi, how do i find out what ip address my ubuntu server has? i'm running it under q (on mac)
[22:07] <dopievoli> What does GDM does not exist mean?
[22:07] <thisdyu> thanks guys
[22:07] <astro76> skavez: ifconfig
[22:07] <julian_> skavet: ifconfigh
[22:07] <julian_> astro76,  was quicker
[22:08] <julian_> astro76, wasnt wrong ;)
[22:08] <julian_> compiling an kernel takes HOURS
[22:09] <saxsux_> Hi everyone. I've got a friend SSHing my machine to look at some problems I've been having. Is there anyway I can see what he's doing?
[22:09] <skavez> thanks - i tried loading the inet addr on my mac, but it doesn't load the ubuntu server's localhost. is there anything i need to do? i ran sudo apt-get install apache2 php5 libapache2-mod-php5
[22:09] <astro76> saxsux_: you can have him start a screen session to which you can both connect to
[22:09] <julian_> saxsus: isnt there a command history for bash?
[22:09] <astro76> !screen | saxsux_
[22:09] <ubotu> saxsux_: screen is a terminal multiplexer. See http://www.kuro5hin.org/story/2004/3/9/16838/14935 and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_Screen
[22:09] <Jack_Sparrow> julian_, Up arrow when in the terminal?
[22:10] <navaburo_> or type history
[22:10] <julian_> Jack_Sparrow, no no i now that ;) i was trying to answer saxsux question if he can view what his friend, sshing his machine, is doing
[22:11] <lhoerste> Monkey_arma: thanks a lot. I couldn't remember that phigh thing
[22:11] <navaburo_> you can type ps a lot
[22:11] <Jack_Sparrow> julian_, np... wasnt sure
[22:11] <navaburo_> grep for his user name
[22:11] <orudie> how can i lock the user in a specific directory?
[22:11] <DRebellion> orudie, chroot jail?
[22:11] <lhoerste> Monkey_arma: what does phigh do anyway?
[22:11] <julian_> Jack_Sparrow, but i love the community here ;)
[22:11] <saxsux_> I gave him a separate account, mainly to deter him from looking through my home folder. Would I need to login on that account to use screen?
[22:11] <Monkey_arma> im not quite sure tbh
[22:11] <ikonia> orudie: chroot
[22:11] <astro76> lhoerste: priority high, only asks important questions
[22:11] <jack__> Is it possible to pre-order hardy from shipit,, so that when it comes out they will shipit to you?
[22:12] <MintLover> hello im not able to find vidalia anywhere can you tell me where to get the full vidalia tor privoxy packet?
[22:12] <ikonia> jack__: no
[22:12] <Monkey_arma> im glad it worked tho :)
[22:12] <ikonia> MintLover: are you using mint or ubuntu
[22:12] <MintLover> mint
[22:12] <ikonia> MintLover: then this is not the correct place to ask
[22:12] <ikonia> MintLover: this is ubuntu support only
[22:12] <Odd-rationale> I wanted to order some Ubuntu stickers from Canonical, but the shipping to the US was like $9. Is there any other ways to get these stickers? LoCo teams?
[22:12] <LoLeN_> Ubuntu has not Frostwire?
[22:12] <ikonia> MintLover: please contact mint support resources
[22:12] <MintLover> well we are ubuntu based
[22:12] <ikonia> MintLover: but your not ubuntu
[22:12] <saxsux_> Thanks everyone.
[22:12] <ikonia> MintLover: please contact mint support channels
[22:12] <MintLover> can you please help me as we use same repository?
[22:12] <ikonia> MintLover: no
[22:13] <MintLover> mint chan dosen't no
[22:13] <ikonia> MintLover: please contact mint support resources
[22:13] <astro76> Odd-rationale: locos could possibly help with that
[22:13] <MintLover> they don't know i try
[22:13] <ikonia> MintLover: that's not ubuntu's issue
[22:13] <Monkey_arma> lhoerste   phigh is high priority...
[22:13] <lhoerste> astro76, Monkey_arma thanks guys
[22:13] <MintLover> btw why can't you give me help?

[22:13] <MintLover> distro war makes linux weak and mint runs ofn 71,0
[22:13] <MintLover> 7.10
[22:14] <MintLover> of ubuntu
[22:14] <darki3lade> hello?
[22:14] <ikonia> darki3lade: hi
[22:14] <ikonia> MintLover: this isn't a distro war - join the mint support resources
[22:14] <digitalslavery> how does one use/access the LVM?
[22:14] <Odd-rationale> astro76: OK. I guess I will try emailing some locos. THanks!
[22:14] <julian_> damn i get crazy...... i did sudo apt-get isntall linux-source and build-essentials... unpacked the source: sudo tax -xjvf linux-source-2.6.22.tar.bz2 went into that folder and did: sudo make oldconfig.. and then sudo make-kpkg --initrd --revision test1 kernel_image kernel_headers BUT it crashes after 40 minutes of compiling can anyone help me?
[22:14] <ikonia> digitalslavery: lvm is a volume manager that sits on top of disks
[22:14] <ALPSINC> hi all, i was wondering, how can i run things, after startup (as root) and also how to run things after user login...
[22:14] <darki3lade> ok ive got a problem and i was wondering if someone would help me
[22:14] <ikonia> julian_: depends on the error
[22:14] <astro76> Odd-rationale: you'll also get 4 if you get some cds from shipit yourself
[22:14] <orudie> DRebellion: more specific on jail please?
[22:14] <digitalslavery> thanks, but how can i use it to access my logical volumes?
[22:14] <ikonia> darki3lade: if you ask the question we can tr
[22:14] <Jack_Sparrow> MintLover, they are not the same...
[22:14] <Odd-rationale> astro76: Do you know if there is a mailing list? Or must I email them individually?
[22:14] <ikonia> digitalslavery: not to access - but to control yes
[22:15] <darki3lade> i accidentally set my refresh rate too high and now i cant see my screen
[22:15] <Odd-rationale> astro76: Yes. I know. But I want more!!
[22:15] <linxeh> Jack_Sparrow: sure, I agree - I think that the term "software firewall" is an abomination though :(
[22:15] <astro76> Odd-rationale: check your locos wiki page on wiki.ubuntu.com
[22:15] <DRebellion> orudie, i've never attempted it myself, but have heard about it being the solution (but you can't jail root).
[22:15] <Jack_Sparrow> linxeh, agreed
[22:15] <Odd-rationale> astro76: I don't have a loco :(
[22:15] <julian_> ikonia,  unended #ifndef and include/linux/pci.h:72: Error: expected specifier-qualifier-list before »typedef
[22:15] <ikonia> orudie: there is a command called "chroot" this puts the user into a jail using the chroot directory as sthe top level jail
[22:15] <ikonia> orudie: man chroot
[22:15] <astro76> Odd-rationale: you appear to be in Texas, I believe they do ;)
[22:15] <digitalslavery> I have set up a logical volume but the volumes are not formatted so I can't use them
[22:15] <MIFI> ..
[22:15] <ikonia> julian_: thats not really enough, you need about 20 lines of output at least
[22:16] <DRebellion> ikonia, orudie, how is this applied to a user who is sshing in?
[22:16] <darki3lade> hey can someone help me? i accidentally set the refresh rate on my monitor too high by messing with options in ubuntu
[22:16] <darki3lade> now i cant see my screen
[22:16] <darki3lade> is there any way for me to reset it?
[22:16] <astro76> !xconfig | darki3lade
[22:16] <ubotu> darki3lade: To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type « sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg » - To configure only the driver and resolution, type « sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh » - See also !FixRes
[22:16] <Jack_Sparrow> darki3lade, 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
[22:16] <ikonia> DRebellion: put it in his login shell
[22:16] <darki3lade> im on my other computer right now
[22:16] <cyntek> hello everyone,
[22:16] <Odd-rationale> astro76: Ah, i found it
[22:16] <digitalslavery> darki3lade: logout
[22:16] <ALPSINC> darki3lade: it should reset after 15 sec... but idk
[22:16] <DRebellion> ikonia, thought that might be the case
[22:16] <darki3lade> wel i cant see my computer though
[22:17] <darki3lade> *screen
[22:17] <Jack_Sparrow> darki3lade, recovery mode or at the black screen ctrl-alt-F2
[22:17] <cyntek> what is a good tool to use to burn avi to cd-r to play on dvd player?
[22:17] <digitalslavery> darki3lade: ctrl + alt + backspace
[22:17] <Itaku> how do i install php5 with apt-get with the mysql extension?
[22:17] <Jack_Sparrow> ctrl-alt F7 to get back
[22:17] <darki3lade> ok brb, im gonna go try it
[22:17] <Itaku> cuz i got "e107 requires PHP to be installed or compiled with the MySQL extension to work correctly, please see the MySQL manual for more information."
[22:17] <MIFI> good luck
[22:17] <ALPSINC> cancan anyone help me now?
[22:17] <orudie> DRebellion: just want my friend to be locked in his home directory, but he should have access to its subdirectoreis
[22:17] <lane__> is there a performance difference or a security or stability difference between the 2.4 and 2.6 branches?
[22:17] <gnr> argh this is so frustrating, how installing something through the synaptic package manager could f my computer sideways, had to fix graphics drivers compiz, redo my whole desktop
[22:17] <ikonia> ALPSINC: what's up
[22:17] <ALPSINC> how can i run things, after startup (as root) and also how to run things after user login...
[22:17] <ALPSINC> ahh ^^
[22:17] <ikonia> lane__: brnaches of what
[22:17] <digitalslavery> ikonia: how can access my logical drives ?
[22:17] <lane__> the linux kernel
[22:18] <Jack_Sparrow> !sudo | ALPSINC
[22:18] <ubotu> ALPSINC: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information.
[22:18] <ikonia> lane__: massive difference and they have different dependencies
[22:18] <Jack_Sparrow> !gksudo | ALPSINC
[22:18] <ubotu> ALPSINC: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why)
[22:18] <DRebellion> orudie, add the chroot command to /etc/passwd as his shell (google for exact info)
[22:18] <bartmon> Hey. Can there be per user language settings? I installed a new localization but now all users are experiencing the new one.
[22:18] <ikonia> digitalslavery: you can't "access" your drives, you use lvm onto of your local drives
[22:18] <ALPSINC> ahh
[22:18] <ALPSINC> ok
[22:18] <cyntek> digitalslavery: what type of logica drive is it?
[22:18] <cyntek> Filesystem?
[22:19] <digitalslavery> cyntek: should be ext3
[22:19] <julian_> ikonia, http://pastebin.com/m293dfca7 there is the error i translated some messages from german to english
[22:19] <dopievoli> is there anyone who could help me with my lack of GDM user problem?
[22:19] <digitalslavery> thats how I set it up w/ the alt install disk
[22:19] <ikonia> digitalslavery: you can't use lvm to access ext3
[22:19] <ikonia> digitalslavery: lvm sits ontop of disks
[22:19] <cyntek> what is a good tool to use to burn avi to cd-r to play on dvd player?
[22:20] <ikonia> julian_: looks like your headers differ from your kernel version (but reading your earlier comment I don't think thats the case)
[22:20] <digitalslavery> ikonia: ok, but now how do i format the drives so I can use them, sorry should have mentioned that they are a raid 5
[22:20] <ikonia> digitalslavery: you don't format the drive
[22:20] <ikonia> digitalslavery: why do you want LVM ?
[22:20] <Xtahc> ikonia :|
[22:20] <Xtahc> sup
[22:20] <cyntek> what is a good tool to use to burn avi to cd-r to play on dvd player?
[22:20] <ikonia> Xtahc: not much
[22:20] <digitalslavery> ikonia: so that i can set partitions
[22:21] <julian_> ikonia, isnt there a way to check that?
[22:21] <digitalslavery> on the fly
[22:21] <ikonia> digitalslavery: why not just partition the meta devices ?
[22:21] <gnr> anyone here installed ubuntu-studio? it messed up my sound, now nothing works
[22:21] <ikonia> ok, you want it on the fly
[22:21] <deamoon> hi ppl
[22:21] <Jack_Sparrow> gnr, one of the many reasons they have their own room
[22:21] <digitalslavery> ikonia: that seems the be the right way to manage the drives
[22:21] <ikonia> digitalslavery: you need to read up on lvm as it's not something you learn in 20 minutes, you need to pvcreate the devices, create a volume group, greate a volume, format the volume with a file system
[22:21] <deamoon> got real problem with mine ati card
[22:21] <ikonia> julian_: well, are all your packages from the ubuntu repo, what version of the kernel are you playing with
[22:22] <digitalslavery> ikonia: I did, but I just came from a Fedora 8 distro and it had a graphical LVM
[22:22] <Jack_Sparrow> deamoon, which card and which driver did you try to install and how did you try to install it
[22:22] <gnr> Jack_Sparrow,  u been in #ubuntustudio, hell of a lot of people in there
[22:22] <ikonia> digitalslavery: well, in that case you've not read up on it
[22:22] <ikonia> digitalslavery: you need to understand how it works
[22:22] <ikonia> digitalslavery: I'm not aware of a graphical tool in ubuntu
[22:22] <deamoon> well its ati x600
[22:22] <switchcat> Q: how to add a USB printer? I have a brother hl-2040 (laser printer) I went to system->administration->printing-> add new printer but don't seem to see an appropriate choice.  I tried a few options to no avail. 7.10 ubuntu
[22:22] <switchcat> thanks
[22:22] <deamoon> and i dont know nothing else about it
[22:23] <digitalslavery> ikonia: hmm, i followed a walk thru on the ubuntu wiki that was for setting up raid 5
[22:23] <deamoon> some ppl was trying to help me
[22:23] <nikrud> !enter | ikonia  ;p
[22:23] <ubotu> ikonia  ;p: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[22:23] <dopievoli> is there a simple way to add GDM? I've checked it in recovery mode and it says it exists
[22:23] <digitalslavery> ikonia: the last step was to create a LVG
[22:23] <Jack_Sparrow> gnr, understood... 35 people vs 1309 in here..  your point?
[22:23] <ikonia> digitalslavery: and ?
[22:23] <bhsx> what's the easiest way to get encrypted dvd playback in hardy?
[22:23] <julian_> ikonia, http://pastebin.com/m5312589c theres my usr/Src folder
[22:24] <Jack_Sparrow> !hardy
[22:24] <ubotu> Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE BETA SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu
[22:24] <ikonia> bhsx: hardy support is in #ubuntu+1
[22:24] <digitalslavery> ikonia: so I did, and now I cant access the drives
[22:24] <nikrud> !dvd | bhsx install libdvdcss
[22:24] <ubotu> bhsx install libdvdcss: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[22:24] <thisdyu> is there a more effective tool to monitor wireless networks than what is shipped with ubuntu 7.1?
[22:24] <bhsx> thanks
[22:24] <ikonia> julian_: that all looks spot on
[22:24] <astronouth7303> i have an intel 965-based mobo w/onboard graphics. I installed a graphics card (Nvidia 8600GT PCIe, if it makes a difference). I can't disable the onboard graphics w/o the kernel printing a long (endless?) list of what appears to be a function list or backtrace
[22:24] <incugus> Hello a have a major problem , id really appreciate if someone can help me! , im running on  a ATI x800, when i tried to install updated drivers from ATI , graphics totally messed up.
[22:24] <ikonia> julian_: why are you re-compiling the kernel, what are you changing ?
[22:24] <digitalslavery> ikonia: the drive appears unformated in gParted
[22:24] <julian_> ikonia: i need for an application static oss compiled instead of alsa
[22:25] <ikonia> digitalslavery: yes, I don't think gparted can handle meta devices, but I don't know that for a fact
[22:25] <precisodeajuda> I can't install nothing in my ubuntu
[22:25] <Jack_Sparrow> incugus, congrats you are the third one in 3 minutes with an ati problem, maybe we should have awards...
[22:25] <ikonia> julian_: and thats all you've changed, you used the same .config from the ubuntu source package
[22:25] <busan> hello
[22:25] <precisodeajuda> Instalando apt-file (2.0.8.2ubuntu2) ...
[22:25] <precisodeajuda> Instalando apt-file (2.0.8.2ubuntu2) ...

[22:25] <precisodeajuda> sorry
[22:25] <julian_> ikonia,  i didnt change anything
[22:25] <busan> ?
[22:25] <Jack_Sparrow> !aptfix
[22:25] <ubotu> If an APT front-end crashed and your database is locked, try this in a !terminal: « sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a »
[22:25]  * nikrud waits for the ultimate ati howto, promised for weeks now ;)
[22:25] <digitalslavery> ikonia: would mdadm be a better tool to deal with this?
[22:25] <darki3lade> okay ive still got problems
[22:25] <darki3lade> i dont think i messed with the Xorg or anything i was using the system tab and then i cant really remember but i went to switch my monitor from plug and play to what it really was and it gave me the option of a higher refresh rate so i clicked on it then it said i needed to log out, I did and now my monitor says that the frequency is out of its range and that i need to try a different resolution... if i unhook and rehook my monitor back 
[22:25] <precisodeajuda> thanks
[22:25] <julian_> i just tried to compile it to see if it works
[22:26] <ikonia> digitalslavery: no, mdadm is for raid meta device creation, nothing to do with lvm
[22:26] <arius> hallo
[22:26] <hvgotcodes> 1) Is there another app like xclock that perhaps is a bit more fancy 2) in gnome, how do I disable desktop icons, 3) in compiz how do i make it so terminals dont have window decoration
[22:26] <julian_> ikonia i used: sudo make oldconfig
[22:26] <aks> hi, i have somehow managed to make my firefox window semi transparent... can anyone help me out?

[22:26] <fevel> can someone explain me how to configure kernel options??
[22:26] <digitalslavery> ikonia: lets see maybe I should be asking what do I need to do now in order to use my raid 5 drive
[22:26] <ikonia> fevel: if you don't know - you shouldn't be trying
[22:26] <dopievoli> Does this mean no one can help with my problem?
[22:26] <crdlb> hvgotcodes: 1) cairo-clock 2) gconf-editor /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop 3) ask in #compiz-fusion
[22:26] <dopievoli> or is it too simple please help
[22:26] <astro76> aks: it is I think ALT + mouse wheel
[22:26] <Jack_Sparrow> darki3lade, did you run the command I gave
[22:26] <arius> thx
[22:26] <ikonia> digitalslavery: well, you can partition your raid5 device, or you can treat it as one big drive, or you can use lvm, it's your call
[22:27] <hvgotcodes> crdlb: thanx
[22:27] <fevel> ikonia,  but I want to
[22:27] <ikonia> fevel: then read up on the basics
[22:27] <nikrud> dopievoli your question isn't very clear, add gdm? What do you mean, exactly?
[22:27] <julian_> ikonia: i have no idea what im doing wrong
[22:27] <ALPSINC> Jack_Sparrow: holdup... i need to be a ble to automaticly run applications as root, and some as the logging in user, everytime i restart and log in...
[22:27] <aks> astro76: thanks, it worked :)
[22:27] <ikonia> fevel: if you can't even enter the config mode you shouldn't be messing with it
[22:27] <incugus> the default configuration works fine for me , i even installed the graphical effects (compiz) im really new to linux (2 days) i have lots of work to do, and i need help plz.
[22:27] <fevel> ikonia,  Are you saying I shouldnt learn how to do something I want to learn
[22:27] <ikonia> julian_ oldconfig should work, I can't see anything obvious
[22:27] <nikrud> !kernel | fevel
[22:27] <ubotu> fevel: The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - For more: /msg ubotu stages
[22:27] <ikonia> fevel: no, I'm saying you should read up on the basics
[22:28] <ikonia> fevel: rather than ask someone to hand hold you through something you don't understand
[22:28] <fevel> ikonia,  thats not right thinking since I could only mess with it bye entering config  mode
[22:28] <denisbr> Hi All
[22:28] <ikonia> fevel: but the fact that you don't know how to suggests you should do some more reading
[22:28] <darki3lade> help its still not working
[22:28] <darki3lade> i dont think i messed with the Xorg or anything i was using the system tab and then i cant really remember but i went to switch my monitor from plug and play to what it really was and it gave me the option of a higher refresh rate so i clicked on it then it said i needed to log out, I did and now my monitor says that the frequency is out of its range and that i need to try a different resolution... if i unhook and rehook my monitor back 
[22:28] <Jack_Sparrow> ALPSINC, sounds like you need to script them and add to bashrc.. not my thing.  just saw a guy doing just that the other day. It just does not come up bvery often
[22:28] <denisbr> anybody is using the obexserver in the gutsy version ??
[22:28] <dopievoli> nikrud: I've just installed a fresh ubuntu than I just added a second user, than after the restart now it says GDM user GDM does not exist please correct GDM configuation and restart GDM
[22:28] <fevel> ikonia,  ok thanks
[22:28] <hvgotcodes> i installed cairo-clock but cant find an executable with that name....
[22:28] <precisodeajuda> <<sudo fuser -vki /var/lib/dpkg/lock;sudo dpkg --configure -a>> don't works, it just goes back to:"Installing apt-file (2.0.8.2Ubuntu)

[22:29] <bobertdos> Does anyone know why I'm unable to use the compose key after I set it? (Gutsy)
[22:29] <darki3lade> Jack_Sparrow you mean the alt ctl one?

[22:30] <incugus> Guys i know ppl spam troubles here, i dont wanna repeat , but any of you have some time to guide me through this
[22:30] <nikrud> dopievoli   put a copy of   /etc/passwd  on pastebin, please
[22:30] <dopievoli> nikrud: how can I delete the new user through recovery mode?
[22:30] <darki3lade> Jack_Sparrow so im guessing unplugging and replugging the monitor wont work then
[22:30] <Jack_Sparrow> darki3lade, yes, recovery mode...  ctrl alt F1-6 and F7 to get back
[22:30] <crdlb> hvgotcodes: it should have installed /usr/bin/cairo-clock
[22:30] <Jack_Sparrow> darki3lade, nope
[22:30] <nikrud> dopievoli   sudo deluser <username> , but that's probably not the fix
[22:30] <hvgotcodes> hmm it didnt
[22:30] <hvgotcodes> i did apt-get install cairo-clock
[22:30] <ALPSINC> ikonia: maybe you can help with this: i need to run command line apps, as root, everytime ubuntu starts up... and i need to run more command line applications when i log in... any ideas?
[22:30] <fevel> ikonia,  its that I was using powertop...ever heard of it?

[22:33] <epitron> hmmm... i'm trying to use the external monitor connection on my laptop, and i'm at a bit of a loss to figure out what THING is responsible for the 2nd monitor output... is this the video driver? (i'm using binary nvidia drivers)

[22:34] <darki3lade> Jack_Sparrow what? ok, look im just kinda stressed out right now and i dont typically deal with linux so im a little confused, what ive got so far is to restart, and at the black loading screen press ctrl and alt
[22:35] <holyguyver> the mint supporet is dead at the moment, not enough people & no one is awake, that is why he is coming here.
[22:35] <epitron> ALPSINC: did you make an init script?
[22:35] <andresj> hello. my daemon I want to run with start-stop-daemon (for an init.d script) does not automatically fork. what do I do?
[22:35] <ALPSINC> epitron: i never have
[22:35] <orudie> julian_: really need some help on chroot
[22:35] <darki3lade> Jack_Sparrow what do i do from there?
[22:35] <epitron> ALPSINC: actually, there's one in there that you can edit that's for just that purpose
[22:35] <thisdyu> hey in configuring kismet would channel source be like wlan1 or sumthing?
[22:35] <epitron> ALPSINC: edit /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh
[22:35] <Jack_Sparrow> see if vtrl-alt F2 brings up a login prompt
[22:35] <julian_> orudie: chroot for what do you use chroot?
[22:35] <samuel> sup all
[22:35] <nikrud> dopievoli  adduser --home /var/lib/gdm --uid 105 --gid 113 --gecos "Gnome Display Manager" --shell=/bin/false  will recreate the gdm user
[22:35] <Jack_Sparrow> ctrl
[22:35] <darki3lade> Jack_Sparrow ok ill brb
[22:35] <dopievoli> nikrud: should I just reinstall ubuntu?
[22:36] <nikrud> dopievoli read above
[22:36] <ALPSINC> epitron: thanks a bunch! how how can i run apps for the user logging in?
[22:36] <orudie> julian_: want to look a user into his home directory
[22:36] <samuel> anyone know if its possible to hard link a directory? i get a hard link not allowed error but i would like to hard link it if possible
[22:36] <Bizzeh> hey, i just installed ubuntu 7.10, and durin the boot sequence, all my usb devices are loaded, the boot locks up
[22:36] <orudie> julian_: i want to lock a user into his home directory
[22:36] <julian_> orudie, do you want to lock or look?`oh ok
[22:36] <Bizzeh> does anyone have any idea what is going on?
[22:37] <Jack_Sparrow> Bizzeh, have you tried pulling different usb devices to see what is causing it to hang
[22:37] <julian_> orudie, but chroot is the wrong command then
[22:37] <epitron> ALPSINC: why would you want to do that?
[22:37] <orudie> julian_: whats the command then? jail ?
[22:37] <ALPSINC> epitron: i can't run inspircd as root :p
[22:37] <andrea6030> so whats with me having to have the destination and target folders open when i copy and paste_
[22:37] <andrea6030> ?
[22:37] <darki3lade> Jack_Sparrow no luck, i restarted, waited for the black loading screen, hit ctrl alt F2 and it went through the checklist again and i still end up with my monitor telling me that the frequency is too high
[22:37] <epitron> ALPSINC: soo.. run it as a user! :)
[22:37] <Bizzeh> Jack_Sparrow: thought it was my external hdd at first, pulled that, locked up after my mouse, pulled that, locked up after ipod (which it had gotten past before)
[22:37] <epitron> ALPSINC: what's the problem exactly?
[22:38] <franz1789> excuse me, how can I disable the default setting of "work offline" in Firefox 3.0 beta 4?
[22:38] <precisodeajuda> anything I try to install, stops in this line: "Installing apt-file (2.8.0.2Ubuntu2)..."
[22:38] <epitron> franz1789: default? gross
[22:38] <ALPSINC> epitron: i need to get my ircd up after login
[22:38] <sarah__> anyone try Hardy Haron yet?
[22:38] <franz1789> when I open FF it's bothering to go and press again the button
[22:38] <Jack_Sparrow> darki3lade, on power up.. hit escape to try and bring up grub menu and get to recovery mode.
[22:38] <darki3lade> Jack_Sparrow ok
[22:38] <epitron> ALPSINC: but you said you had to run it as root before
[22:38] <franz1789> epitron, the fact is that when I open it, it's always in work offline
[22:38] <Jack_Sparrow> just keep tapping it after the memory test
[22:38] <ALPSINC> epitron: i have auto login setup quite nicely right now :)
[22:38] <epitron> franz1789: stop using firefox 3.0! :D
[22:38] <ALPSINC> epitron: that was for some other programs :)
[22:39] <Bizzeh> http://rafb.net/p/1U7WNZ79.html thats my boot entry in grub (installed via a different os) is that right?
[22:39] <epitron> ALPSINC: oh, ok.. then you wanna put it in your ~/.bashrc file
[22:39] <franz1789> epitron, well, I'm in Ubuntu Hardy Heron
[22:39] <epitron> ALPSINC: orrr.. .bash_login
[22:39] <tylere> Is there any way to improve 2d X performance under the nvidia driver? If I drag a window I get "trails". e.g., if I drag a window rapidly downward I'll get 10 or 15 stacked copies of the titlebar temporarily
[22:39] <ALPSINC> epitron: ok thanks!
[22:39] <tylere> it's like it's not repainting aggressivly enough
[22:39] <astro76> franz1789: #ubuntu+1 for hardy
[22:39] <franz1789> thanks
[22:39] <epitron> ALPSINC: might wanna read up on the difference between the two. i can't remember
[22:39] <epitron> ALPSINC: there's also .profile
[22:40] <ALPSINC> yea, just about to do that :P thanks!
[22:40] <darki3lade> Jack_Sparrow ok ive got the root thing up
[22:40] <orudie> julian_: still around?
[22:40] <julian_> orudie, sorry have noe clue how to lock somebody into home dir
[22:40] <epitron> ALPSINC: all those get executed automatically at login, and some get executed automatically when you make a new shell..
[22:40] <Jack_Sparrow> use the command I have given you a couple times now
[22:40] <epitron> i forget which
[22:40] <ALPSINC> right... i'll read up!
[22:40] <darki3lade> Jack_Sparrow ctrl alt 2?
[22:40] <epitron> good job
[22:40] <epitron> :D

[22:40] <Jack_Sparrow> no sudo dpkg rec...
[22:40] <darki3lade> Jack_Sparrow oh sorry
[22:40] <precisodeajuda> I can't install anything
[22:41] <ubuntu-user_> i`ve got riva tnt2 card and my max res is 800x600. how to fix that
[22:41] <julian_> ikonia: any idea how to check
[22:41] <Bizzeh> ubuntu-user_: get a better gfx card?
[22:41] <Jack_Sparrow> precisodeajuda, what error do you get?  HAve you ever used automatix (Terrible thing to do) has this system ever worked and which release of ubuntu are you using
[22:42] <LoLeN_> how can one change the runlevel for particular applications?
[22:42] <pulpfiction> i'm trying to change the mount point of my hard drives, which ubuntu automatically mounts
[22:42] <julian_> ikonia im back in a few trying to check my ram
[22:42] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntu-user_, you can get 1024x768 just running vesa mode
[22:42] <julian_> maybe there is something wrong with that
[22:42] <ubuntu-user_> Bizzeh: it is impossible 1MB cards supports these resolutions
[22:42] <pulpfiction> i already tried to change on the properties dialog, on the volume tab, mount point option
[22:42] <RoKisTaR> someone can help me????
[22:42] <pulpfiction> but it does't work..
[22:42] <Jack_Sparrow> only 1 meg of ram?
[22:42] <precisodeajuda> jack_sparrow, I don't get any errors, just stop the installation in the line" Installing apt-file..."
[22:42] <precisodeajuda> never ends
[22:43] <orudie> i am new to linux, how would i lock a user in his home directory ?
[22:43] <Bizzeh> so, anyway, is this right to boot ubuntu 7.10 http://rafb.net/p/1U7WNZ79.html ?
[22:43] <pulpfiction> i've created the mount point directories on the /media
[22:43] <ubuntu-user_> Jack_Sparrow: how to run that mode?
[22:43] <RoKisTaR> how I install my wireless board????
[22:43] <LoLeN_> how can one change the runlevel for particular applications?
[22:43] <LoLeN_> how can one change the runlevel for particular applications?
[22:43] <LoLeN_> how can one change the runlevel for particular applications?
[22:43] <LoLeN_> ???
[22:43] <Jack_Sparrow> precisodeajuda, please answer the rest of the questions
[22:43] <gidna> hi
[22:43] <pulpfiction> does anyone have any other idea besides manually updating /etc/fstab?
[22:43] <astro76> pulpfiction: if you set the mount point there, you have to put the directory name you want without hte preceding /media/
[22:43] <astro76> !repeat | LoLeN_
[22:43] <ubotu> LoLeN_: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[22:43] <Jack_Sparrow> LoLeN_, please dont do that.
[22:43] <gidna> How can I do an excutable file not excutable?
[22:43] <gidna> I do chomod -x file..
[22:43] <pulpfiction> astro76, i have done that
[22:43] <LoLeN_> ok sorry
[22:44] <gidna> but it is useless
[22:44] <saschahl> gidna: chmod +x file
[22:44] <RoKisTaR> How I install my wireless board in Ubuntu
[22:44] <saschahl> gidna: oh, sorry, misread the question
[22:44] <LoLeN_> !patience
[22:44] <ubotu> The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[22:44] <saschahl> gidna: so ls -l still shows the x flag?
[22:44] <thisdyu> hey neone know what i put for the source in the config of kismet? is it wlan1?
[22:44] <precisodeajuda> jack_sparrow, I use the Ubuntu 7.10, and about 3 days ago, all was working nicely
[22:44] <pulpfiction> astro76, do i have to create the directories or will ubuntu create them for me, with the properly permissions?
[22:44] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntu-user_, 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
[22:44] <dopievoli> nikrud: i'm just going to reinstall none of it seems to be working
[22:44] <jake2point0> my usb wireless dongle is detected and using the ndiswrapper windows drivers, but its not listing in my iwconfig\
[22:44] <precisodeajuda> sorry about my english
[22:45] <dopievoli> thanksthrough
[22:45] <Jack_Sparrow> precisodeajuda, what all have you installed ...  what about automatix or video drivers..
[22:45] <thisdyu> hey neone know what i put for the capture source in the config of kismet? is it wlan1?
[22:45] <astro76> pulpfiction: it should be created automatically
[22:45] <pulpfiction> astro76, i tried without creating them and it didn't work.. then i proceed to create them and it also didn't work.. but now i'm wondering if it's because the owner is root:root, while the sda5 directory is root:plugdev
[22:45] <astro76> pulpfiction: another way to control mount point is to set a label on the disk, it will use that name
[22:45] <tahcX> how many of you thinks, using Ubuntu if way.. better than windows ?
[22:45] <thisdyu> i do
[22:45] <pulpfiction> astro76, ok, that might work it... how do i set a label?
[22:45] <Bizzeh> i do not, i only use it because im forced to do because of work
[22:45] <Jack_Sparrow> precisodeajuda, Did you try the apt fix I linked earlier, have you manually added or changed any sources..
[22:45] <[T]ank> could anyone help me identify what keyboard layout i am supposed to have with an ibm t43p? 104? 105? i cannot find what it should be
[22:45] <thisdyu> but im irrelevant
[22:46] <Bizzeh> and i may just force work to use a windows server instead of i cant get an answer to my question
[22:46] <thisdyu> hey neone know what i put for the capture source in the config of kismet? is it wlan1?
[22:46] <jake2point0> linux has no good wireless support
[22:46] <astro76> pulpfiction: gparted is one way
[22:46] <tahcX> Bizzeh you prefer windows ?
[22:46] <thisdyu> thats crap jake2point
[22:46] <precisodeajuda> jack_sparrow, i've changed the sources
[22:46] <RoKisTaR> But how can I install?
[22:46] <darki3lade> Jack_Sparrow ok i entered in the sudo code and went through and selected all the defaults now what?
[22:46] <Bizzeh> in general, bsd, but between windows and linux dists, windows
[22:46] <jake2point0> my usb wireless dongle is detected and using the ndiswrapper windows drivers, but its not listing in my iwconfig\
[22:46] <saschahl> jake2point0: what wireless adapter is it?
[22:47] <thisdyu> hey neone know what i put for the capture source in the config of kismet? is it wlan1?
[22:47] <precisodeajuda> where I get the original sources
[22:47] <precisodeajuda> ?
[22:47] <RoKisTaR> intel 1930
[22:47] <Jack_Sparrow> darki3lade, reboot and see if you fixed it.  if not try the failsafe I showed at the end
[22:47] <darki3lade> k

[22:47] <YuriQ> is this the right channel to ask Ubuntu questions, specifically problems with the UI?
[22:48] <incugus> Hi im back, please, can someone spare some time to help me out?
[22:48] <Jack_Sparrow> precisodeajuda, SInce you only installed three days ago, you may want to consider reinstalling.  can you copy and paste your sources.list into a pastebin.
[22:48] <jake2point0> i used Windows Wireless Drivers to load the XP driver .inf
[22:48] <darki3lade> Jack_Sparrow thank you so much, it worked!
[22:49] <Jack_Sparrow> darki3lade, glad to hear it.. Hope you wrote that down

[22:49] <jake2point0> still dont work
[22:49] <ikonia> orudie: I thought we exaplined this
[22:49] <ikonia> orudie: chroot
[22:49] <Jack_Sparrow> incugus, Please ask your question in detail on one line please
[22:50] <orudie> ikonia: i looked up chroot on google , cant figure it out
[22:50] <Jack_Sparrow> ubuntu-user_, use tab to bypass and accept defaults on anything you dont already know
[22:50] <ikonia> orudie: what can't you figure out
[22:50] <ikonia> what is not clear
[22:50] <gidna> saschahl>
[22:50] <orudie> ikonia: the command line
[22:50] <precisodeajuda> jack_sparrow, I think the sources isn't the problem 'cause the download is ok... the crash is in the installation
[22:50] <gidna> no but gnome manager yes
[22:50] <ikonia> orudie: what part of it, it only has 2 options, what's not clear
[22:51] <Jack_Sparrow> !pm > RoKisTaR
[22:51] <Jack_Sparrow> precisodeajuda, please post your sources list
[22:51] <precisodeajuda> ok
[22:51] <ikonia> orudie: what part is not clear to you ?
[22:51] <radsouthern> hi anyone good with wireless
[22:52] <YuriQ> I am running 7.10, Gnome desktop environment, Compiz WM. I run "GL Desktop" utility, then under "Window Decorator" I click on the "Themes" button, but nothing happens. Can anyone reproduce this on their system?
[22:52] <jake2point0> gee imagine that.  another wireless problem
[22:52] <Leviath> Hi all, I have a problem with Hardy Beta, .mp3-files do not show the default music-icons and also don' t show the preview icons when hovered over (nor does it play a preview). I already tried reinstalling some mime-packages but this did not help, can someone help me?
[22:52] <ubuntu-user_> Jack_Sparrow: is some way to change back these settings? besides i don`t know what i should enter in the windows Amount of memory (default is empty)
[22:52] <ikonia> Leviath: hardy support is in #ubuntu+1
[22:52] <ikonia> orudie: hello ?
[22:52] <Leviath> ok ikonia  thank you

[22:53] <switchcat> Q: how do I check to make sure my USB is working and if it's recognizing plugged-in usb devices? (i just rebooted) ubuntu 7.10  thanks
[22:53] <saschahl> jake2point0: don't be too harsh. Wireless support is great in Linux but it's the vendors that decide not to support Linux.
[22:53] <ubuntu-user_> Jack_Sparrow: ok then i leave it empty
[22:53] <incugus1> How can i fix my ATI video problem, can anyone spare some time to help me out?
[22:53] <radsouthern> well it worked fine last install
[22:53] <saschahl> jake2point0: maybe you find an open source driver for the hardware of your's. But it's hard to give support if there is only the windows driver and I don't think they are guaranteed to work.
[22:53] <radsouthern> jake
[22:53] <Jack_Sparrow> incugus1, /join #Compiz
[22:53] <incugus1> ok thanks jack sparrow
[22:53] <radsouthern> but i had kde installed
[22:53] <orudie> ikonia: i typed chroot --help and its instructions are not clear to me
[22:54] <radsouthern> i went with gnome this  time
[22:54] <precisodeajuda> jack sparrow, how do I post my sources.list?
[22:54] <ikonia> orudie: what part - there is only two options, what don't you understand
[22:54] <ikonia> orudie: and there are great docs on google, that you said you read, what part of the 2 options is not clear
[22:54] <jake2point0> saschahl every brand of network card that is wireless dont work without jacking with it to get it to work.  i work at a computer store where we install ubuntu on computers that come in.
[22:54] <gnr> /usr/src/alsa$ sudo cp ~/downloads/alsa* .sudo tar xjf alsa-driver*.bz2
[22:54] <gnr> cp: target `alsa-driver-1.0.16.tar.bz2' is not a directory
[22:54] <gnr>  <-- what am i doing wrong?
[22:54] <radsouthern> it is a wlan atheros 5007 zydas 1211
[22:54] <orudie> ikonia: Usage: chroot NEWROOT [COMMAND...] which command ?
[22:55] <saschahl> jake2point0: my ipw2200 works out of the box. My Belkin USB dongle works out of the box.
[22:55] <ikonia> orudie: the command you want to launch from the chroot ?
[22:55] <jake2point0> saschahl because you knew it would work with linux first before buying
[22:55] <orudie> ikonia: its not helping :(
[22:55] <thisdyu> hey guys neone here have ne experiance with kismet?
[22:55] <ikonia> orudie: what's not helping ?
[22:55] <jake2point0> saschahl my customers dont do that
[22:55] <orudie> ikonia: orudie: the command you want to launch from the chroot ?
[22:55] <Jack_Sparrow> !paste > precisodeajuda
[22:55] <andrea6030> anyone have problems with vlc and firefox under any distro, i find it when i open firefox after vlc, vlc starts showing streaks of colour
[22:56] <saschahl> jake2point0: that's the problem, yes. :-S In Linux you can't always assume that the hardware works. But again it's the hardware that does not support Linux.
[22:56] <ikonia> orudie: ok, you want to lock someone in a jail, so you want to chroot him into /var/tmp for example so you'd chroot him into /var/tmp, then want to launch /bin/bash so he had a shell, which would be relevant to /var/tmp/bin/bash

[22:57] <h0ax> can anyone help with a wireless card
[22:57] <ikonia> saschahl: how is that going to list package contents ?
[22:58] <saschahl> jake2point0: who do you think makes the hardware and knows about it? it's not the linux hackers.

[23:00] <sabre1994> could anyone help? i have a feeling it might be an intel hda which i know doesnt work but it might not be
[23:00] <jake2point0> saschahl well, apparently unsupported usb wireless dongles are a stomach turner for ppl helping others out in here.  i give up, ill just hardline my pc to my nic.
[23:00] <Jack_Sparrow> cant help if we dont know mopre about what you did or added.
[23:00] <atsu> If one wanted to begin programming where should one start? programs, guides.. etc
[23:00] <ikonia> atsu: buy a book on programming
[23:00] <saschahl> jake2point0: do you know what chip the usb dongle has? maybe there are open source drivers
[23:00] <julian_> ikonia, but memtest on ubuntu says errors and errors
[23:00] <RoKisTaR> someone can help me with my wireless card???
[23:00] <ikonia> atsu: this channel is for supporting the ubuntu operating system, hit "/topic" for more info

[23:01] <atsu> ikonia: thanks
[23:01] <anaoum> RoKisTaR: what card?

[23:01] <RoKisTaR> intel 1930

[23:01] <precisodeajuda> wine, winetools, some games: ktron, kmahjjong, kolf
[23:01] <KalEl> when i let the computer running for long, and i connect through ssh, some process called "endgame" seems to take up all my cpu cycles - how do i disable that? hope it's not a virus
[23:01] <RoKisTaR> anaoum: intel 1930
[23:01] <v0rex> i think there is a sourceforge project that supports that let me check
[23:01] <julian_> ikonia,  but thanks anyway for trying to help me... i appreciate it
[23:01] <ikonia> KalEl: find where endgame is on your system
[23:01] <tarelerulz> reason I ask it seem like ripping a movie should take under 5 hours . on computer with a gb of ram and dual core 1.4  processor . I did not put it on supper good copy
[23:01] <precisodeajuda> and gparted
[23:02] <poseidon> Is there a way to give my file browser (the default one for gnome) a address bar?
[23:02] <ikonia> julian_: you helped yourself, thats the best help there is, well done
[23:02] <poseidon> so I can type in an address and go to it
[23:02] <jake2point0> usb vendor is Envara Inc.

[23:02] <v0rex> check that out
[23:02] <KalEl> ikonia, `which endgame` shows nothing
[23:02] <RoKisTaR> anaoum: do you know something about my card?
[23:02] <orudie> ikonia: i gotta do chroot ~ /bin/bash from sudo user, or the user that i'm trying to put in jail ?
[23:02] <ikonia> KalEl: that doesn't find it on your system, do a find
[23:03] <jake2point0> saschahl what command string do i type in to get the chipset info on.
[23:03] <anaoum> RoKisTaR: no, could you please show output of lspci
[23:03] <v0rex> RoKisTaR:http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=437108
[23:03] <Geoffrey2> if I run memtest one time and have it report 66 errors, and every time since then it's found nothing....should I just disregard the first memory test?
[23:03] <ikonia> orudie: depending on your system, you may have to use sudo to chroot him depending on your system permissinos
[23:03] <Jordan_U> KalEl, What is the output of "ps aux | grep endgame" ?
[23:04] <saschahl> jake2point0: try lsusb and tell me the id
[23:04] <orudie> ikonia: when i tried from the sudo user its prompting for the sudo username
[23:04] <ikonia> orudie: no it's not, it's prompting for the password
[23:04] <ikonia> orudie: it assumes the username of the user running sudo
[23:04] <tarelerulz> What the factor that could tell how fast a encoding from dvd directory should take ? just asking
[23:04] <saschahl> jake2point0: I don't know of a way to identify the chip of the device. :( The vendors usually don't tell.
[23:04] <KalEl> Jordan_U, it says endgame -root
[23:04] <orudie> ikonia: yeah, its its going to lock the sudo username
[23:04] <RoKisTaR> anaoum: what is lspci because I'm from brazil =D
[23:05] <KalEl> Jordan_U, "arnab    11359  6.4  0.8  20344 17736 ?        SNL  04:33   0:00 endgame -root"
[23:05] <orudie> ikonia: and i want to lock a different user
[23:05] <ikonia> orudie no it' not
[23:05] <jake2point0> saschahl its hosing if you know what i mean.  usb problem i guess
[23:05] <stercor> When I logoff or switch users the cursor disappears.  I have to reboot to get it back.
[23:05] <ka2> does anyone have any ideas about sabre1994's sound card
[23:05] <ikonia> orudie: chroot is not interested in the username - chroot is interested in the user running it, so either change teh user you want to locks login profile to execute chroot on login or something of that nature
[23:06] <anaoum> RoKisTaR: open a terminal and type lspci then hit enter
[23:06] <RoKisTaR> ok
[23:06] <orudie> ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60928/
[23:06] <RoKisTaR> one minute

[23:07] <poseidon> What are the hotkeys for the 3d desktop in gnome?
[23:07] <orudie> ikonia: its saying not permitted because i didnt do sudo
[23:07] <v0rex> Phonica: are you sure the cd is not damaged
[23:07] <v0rex> first of all
[23:07] <Numb3rs4l3tt3rs> So I am having a little trouble with Ubuntu Server, It doesn't boot into a gui its just bash...is that it or is something wrong
[23:07] <Phonica> how can i be sure? i cant use the option to check the disk for the same reason
[23:08] <ikonia> orudie I didn't ask anything about sudo, I asked if you had a /bin/bash in your chroot jail target
[23:08] <joecurlee> hi all, I was running in to issues using mythtv .21 on ubuntu 7.10. HDTV playing poorly... i was instructed on #mythtv-users to remove nvidia drivers which I installed from nvidia.com... now I'm at a loss for which driver I should use... any suggestions?

[23:08] <v0rex> oh okay
[23:08] <Jordan_U> Numb3rs4l3tt3rs, That's it, servers don't need ( nor do they usually have ) GUI's
[23:08] <orudie> ikonia: i dont know, i'im really new to linux man
[23:08] <Phonica> hmm thats odd...
[23:08] <anaoum> sarah__: im on hardy now
[23:08] <ikonia> orudie: what are you trying to do and why
[23:08] <Numb3rs4l3tt3rs> oh ok thanks guys
[23:08] <Phonica> it looks like it didnt finish burning the disk :| lol
[23:08] <Phonica> the dark ring only comes out part way
[23:08] <Phonica> how odd
[23:08] <Numb3rs4l3tt3rs> guess I gotta go learn me some bash
[23:08] <ikonia> orudie: setting up a chroot jail for no reason when you don't know what your doing is overkill, what is your end goal
[23:08] <v0rex> lol,you can try the checksum
[23:08] <Phonica> *burns a new disk*
[23:09] <v0rex> to see if you have a complete install
[23:09] <sarah__> anaoum: i have a question. When you upgraded, did you lose any data from your old version?
[23:09] <anaoum> Numb3rs4l3tt3rs: if u want a gui, install xubuntu-desktop for a minimal desktop
[23:09] <BadStudent> hello, can anybody help me? I need to make user account with minimum rights, just to use Firefox with flash, nothing else. Can anybody conceptually tell me how can i do this?
[23:09] <sarah__> Because I want to upgrade, but still have my documents
[23:09] <Numb3rs4l3tt3rs> Naw I am looking to make a Home medai server
[23:09] <anaoum> sarah__: i did a fresh install - so i had backed up all my stuff

[23:09] <ubuntu-user> how to make auto login in ubuntu?
[23:10] <sarah__> anaoum: but i think you can upgrade from terminal yes? is that the same as a fresh install?
[23:10] <ikonia> sarah__: it's not the same as a fresh install
[23:10] <orudie> ikonia: i asked a quetsion about locking a user that i created in one folder, i dont want him to go looking at my .conf files even though he cant change them
[23:10] <vesel> Hello, anyone had any luck with libnss-pgsql/libpam-pgsql configuration?
[23:10] <ikonia> sarah__: it doesn't matter if it's terminal or gui - they do the same thing
[23:10] <anaoum> like a sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ?
[23:10] <anaoum> its not a fresh install
[23:10] <anaoum> but you'll get all the new features
[23:10] <sarah__> yeah
[23:10] <ikonia> orudie: why ?
[23:10] <sarah__> i want the new features and the new kernel
[23:10] <ikonia> orudie: just change the permissions on the config files so he can't see them
[23:10] <RoKisTaR> anaoum: I typed
[23:11] <ikonia> chroot for that is over the top
[23:11] <orudie> ikonia: i made him owner will all permissions of his home folder, and i dont want him to go anywhere beyond his home dir.
[23:11] <v0rex> orudie: you can just chroot his directory too
[23:11] <ikonia> orudie: install the restricted shell then, your chrooting someone for no real reason
[23:12] <orudie> v0rex, ikonia lol , what should i do
[23:12] <v0rex> orudie: either method would work
[23:12] <ikonia> orudie truthfully, I'd do nothing, there is no harm in him looking at config files, and if your that bothered change the permissions on the config files so he can't see, chroot is over kill

[23:13] <Toznoshio> Q: How can I extract the sound from a Flash (SWF) file?
[23:14] <precisodeajuda> jack_sparrow... I will reinstall ubuntu
[23:14] <ikonia> orudie: change the ownership of the files then
[23:14] <Jordan_U> orudie, There should not be unencrypted passwords ANYWHERE, let alone configuration files
[23:15] <orudie> Jordan_U: by editing .conf files is how i set my server passwords
[23:15] <anaoum> how can i set up a server with users home directories such that an ubuntu desktop authenticates against the server and automounts the home folder?
[23:15] <anaoum> a link to a guide would be great if any one knows :D
[23:15] <orudie> ikonia: ok back to you my friend
[23:16] <ikonia> orudie what are these "servers" that store passwords in plain text config files ?
[23:16] <poseidon> How do I get beryl?
[23:16] <Jordan_U> !beryl | poseidon
[23:16] <ubotu> poseidon: Beryl has been merged with Compiz to form Compiz-Fusion.  New Beryl installs are discouraged. See also !compiz
[23:16] <ikonia> poseidon beryl is dead and repalced with compiz-fusion
[23:16] <julian_> is there a way to see the mhz speed of the ram under ubuntu?
[23:16] <seaq> anaum: you'll need ldap and automount.. try with smbldap-installer
[23:17] <orudie> ikonia: nothing seriouse to you, but seriouse to me, srcds ,
[23:17] <v0rex>  orudie: i would honestly just chroot him, and sleep soundly
[23:17] <thisdyu> anyone here able to help with kismet

[23:19] <kindofabuzz_> is there a way to install ubuntu server through telnet or ssh?  i really don't wanna hook up a monitor and keyboard mouse to my server but i wanna do a complete reinstall
[23:19] <ikonia> orudie: just chmod the file so it's not world readble
[23:20] <michalski> ricanelite: you need to update the avant window navigator
[23:20] <orudie> ikonia: there is a lot of them
[23:20] <michalski> ricanelite: to above version 0.2
[23:21] <Jordan_U> orudie, World readable files with important passwords in them is a huge security risk
[23:21] <ricanelite> how can i update it?
[23:21] <ricanelite> i dont have it installed

[23:23] <ricanelite> once i checked those two and reload
[23:23] <michalski> ricanelite: that would be the problem:)
[23:23] <ricanelite> i got about 200 updates
[23:23] <michalski> yikes

[23:33] <pulpfiction> :P
[23:33] <ike_x> haha been so long since ive seen water rats
[23:33] <b0xxy> water rats the tv show on aussie tv?
[23:33] <intravenous> hey guys, how do i use a proxy with xchat?
[23:33] <Tooommi> Can someone tell me the place where to look for the gnome menu entries? I just cannot delete folders of programs which are already uninstalled
[23:33] <b0xxy> :P
[23:33] <ricanelite> any sites where they could help me install adobe flash
[23:34] <michalski> azuki: try searching for "KDE" in synaptics
[23:34] <b0xxy> Tooommi should be in "system" menu?
[23:34] <digitalslave> doesnt the flash site tell you how to install it? i think it does :)
[23:34] <michalski> azuki, once installed, at logon you can select which desktop environment you want it to load
[23:34] <pulpfiction> astro76, all good, worked :) thank you
[23:34] <root____2> nith - nope no compiz procs running at all *ponders*
[23:34] <nomopofomo> How do I associate an address with my hostname?
[23:35] <Dannyboi> Hi, I'm trying to install ubuntu on my Dell Inspiron 6400 - the problem is however, that 1. I CANNOT install the correct drivers for my ATI X1300, I've tried a million times and 2. I've followed every single piece of advice to set the resolution to 1280x800 -  with no luck at all.
[23:35] <Tooommi> b0xxy: I just that but I cannot delete folders with it
[23:35] <Tooommi> used*
[23:35] <tarelerulz> Do any of you rip your dvd into an  .avi , wmv or mkv if so how long should it take ?
[23:35] <rbil> nomopofomo: add to /etc/hosts
[23:35] <nith> azuki: nomopofomo: /etc/hosts
[23:35] <Dannyboi> and without 1280x800 it looks terrible.
[23:35] <nomopofomo> tarelerulz: That depends on the speed of your processor
[23:35] <azuki> michalski: thanks.. dumb question... but a smart answer :)..
[23:35] <nith> sorry, tabbed at the wrong time
[23:35]  * michalski shows root____2 how to shows emotion
[23:35] <nith> root____2: is metacity running?
[23:36] <astro76> tarelerulz: that's highly dependent on processor and encoding settings, but in general, *a long time*
[23:36] <nomopofomo> rbil: What should it look like?
[23:36] <Dannyboi> I edited the xorg file, manually adding the res, but then upon restarting the X thing, CTRL ALT Backspace...it went insane
[23:36] <nomopofomo> nith: what should it look like?
[23:36] <legend2440> Tooommi: usr/share/applications
[23:36] <root____2> nith - hmmm nope - odd
[23:36] <tarelerulz> astro76 , like 5 hours for a 2 hour movie ?
[23:36] <rbil> nomopofomo: like localhost but with the ip addy and hostname you want
[23:36] <azuki> michalski: just theres a lot of packages.. looking for the right one
[23:36] <astro76> tarelerulz: sure
[23:37] <nith> root____2: O.o
[23:37] <root____2> nith - yah :-(
[23:37] <Dannyboi> Some one?
[23:37] <nith> are you looking manually or grepping?
[23:37] <Dannyboi> Help?
[23:37] <michalski> azuki: the packages that may be of use: kde /  kubuntu-desktop
[23:37] <nomopofomo> rbil: Do I need to do anything like restart X once I've changed it for the changes to take effect?
[23:37] <rbil> nomopofomo: no, just add to hosts file
[23:37] <nith> Dannyboi: did you back it up?
[23:38] <michalski> azuki: read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InstallingKDE
[23:38] <root____2> nith what's odd is this is a virign install... *ponder*
[23:38] <Dannyboi> no, im back on Vista atm, it infuruated me so much
[23:38] <tarelerulz> astro76, Thanks I was just wondering.  It seem longer the it was before so I was starting to wondering.  Never rip a bunch of movies. So I had no idea the time it should take
[23:38] <sarah__> how can i install awn? so i cant get the MAC OSX desktop display
[23:39] <root____2> nith if I click on 'options' it goes to a blank screen saying the greeter application is crashing!
[23:39] <LainIwakura> My computer suddenly became nearly unresponsive/frozen, but it automatically returned to normal after about 5 minutes. How do I find out what might have caused this or prevent it from occurring again?
[23:39] <Tooommi> legend2440: these are the installed programs. But is there a way to delete menu entries? I can delete programs but I cannot delete submenus
[23:39] <mneptok> Dannyboi: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[23:39] <Dannyboi> did that
[23:39] <nomopofomo> rbil: I just "127.0.0.1 nomopofomo2". Will other computers on the network be able to see the FTP server I'm running?
[23:39] <digitalslave> wow i must just be screwed cant seem to find any info on nss and nspr :(
[23:40] <azuki> also.. another question.. is there any good documention on the differences between linux cores?
[23:40] <bitlogical> is any one familar with Synergy
[23:40] <Dannyboi> mneptok I did that, and made sure I pressed spacebar to select 1280x800..but when I selected the "ATI" or "vesa" thing, it still didn't give me the option...it jumped fromo whatever resolution to 1280x940....
[23:40] <nith> root____2: sorry but thats beyond me. you need to find out what window manager is running
[23:40]  * michalski is stumped
[23:40] <root____2> nith thanks anyway mate :-)_
[23:40] <bitlogical> any one Synerry Ubuntu Gnome
[23:40] <digitalslave> if your resolution is set to auto it will use the highest first
[23:40] <Dannyboi> it doesnt
[23:41] <Dannyboi> it sets to 1024x768..which is waaay off
[23:41] <ricanelite> okay i have the adobe flash 9 file on my desktop
[23:41] <b0x> grats
[23:41] <ricanelite> what do i need to type in terminal to get the install going?
[23:41] <rbil> nomopofomo: you need the ip address of the computer running ftp. it  isn't 127.0.0.1 unless it's the computer you're on now
[23:41] <ricanelite> it is saying cd desktop but when i type that in i get a no such file or directory
[23:42] <b0x> ricanelite iv had that same problem, if someone has an answer for that
[23:42] <bitlogical> so i guess noone ever heard of Synergy
[23:42] <Odd-rationale> ricanelite: have you tried the flash in the repo first?
[23:42] <Dannyboi> So mneptok, any ideas?
[23:42] <nomopofomo> rbil: That's what I thought. Is there any way to get around the fact that once I restart the computer it will probably have a new IP address?
[23:42] <b0x> i have bitlogical
[23:42] <bitlogical> Youll would love it if you knew what it was
[23:42] <nith> root____2: try "sudo aptitude install pastebinit && ps -e | pastebinit"
[23:42] <b0x> Synergy is a petrol company
[23:42] <b0x> in sydney
[23:42] <michalski> go to terminal and navigate to folder, ricanelite
[23:42] <b0x> nsw of aus
[23:42] <nith> root____2: that'll post your ps list on pastebin, if you give me the address, maybe i can point out your wm
[23:42] <nomopofomo> rbil: But wait, it IS the computer I'm on now. So am I in the clear?
[23:42] <rbil> nomopofomo: yes, any computer that's going to always be running a server, you should set that computer up to use a static ip address
[23:42] <bitlogical> synergy allows one keyboard / mouse for multiple pc's
[23:42] <azuki> woow... KDE-desktop takes up 623 mb? ?!?!
[23:42] <azuki> WTF!
[23:43] <b0x> LOL
[23:43] <dabbill> Any one able to help with http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60888/ ?
[23:43] <bitlogical> over ethernet
[23:43] <michalski> then type: ./<installfile.sh>
[23:43] <b0x> synergy is also a petrol company in australia :P
[23:43] <b0x> :D
[23:43] <rbil> nomopofomo: but you probably want to access that computer from other computers on your LAN, no?
[23:43] <rebo123> hello
[23:43] <michalski> language... :S lol
[23:43] <Dannyboi> i find it annoyung that Ubuntu is designed to be user friendly, yet we have to come onto some archaic irc server and start typing things into a command terminal......that's just retarded
[23:43] <rebo123> I am trying to install asciidoc
[23:43] <nomopofomo> rbil: Aye.
[23:43] <rbil> nomopofomo: or access the ftp server from somewhere on the Internet?
[23:43] <rebo123> http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/text/asciidoc claims that it's a 740 kb package that requires only python
[23:43] <nomopofomo> rbil: Just the LAN.
[23:43] <nith> Dannyboi: xchat isn't so bad
[23:44] <bitlogical> does anyone know about the etc/gdm/session/default files
[23:44] <azuki> dannyboy: use pidgeon :)
[23:44] <bitlogical> in  gnome
[23:44] <rbil> nomopofomo: well you'll want to setup hosts on those other computers that will be accessing the server
[23:44] <rebo123> when I try to install it, it prompts to download 350MB of packages, including apache2 and the ktchen sink
[23:44] <rebo123> :|
[23:44] <Dannyboi> so....1820x8000...fix it.
[23:44] <Dannyboi> 1280*
[23:44] <rbil> nomopofomo: the computer running the server should have a fixed ip address
[23:44] <root____2> nith - http://paster.stgraber.org/1959
[23:44] <nith> bitlogical: what about them?
[23:45] <HardyOne> Dannyboi, archaic perhaps  but you never see people asking about how to get sound or how to get webcam working in xchat or irssi or Mirc for that matter. offtopic.........
[23:45] <michalski> azuki: yes it takes over 600mb, because its not just installing kde, its installing a ton of custom apps that come with it....
[23:45] <nomopofomo> rbil: Everything was working fine for me until I edited my hosts file, trying to get NFS to work and now proftpd is acting weird which is why I'm asking this question. So do you have any idea what my old hosts file might have looked like? Maybe you could show me yours?
[23:45] <desco> hi
[23:45] <ubud> hallo
[23:46] <rbil> nomopofomo: btw, why are you using an ftp server to do this for a local LAN? wouldn't smb or nfs be better?
[23:46] <nith> root____2: my firefox cannot resolve that site
[23:46] <michalski> ricanelite?
[23:46] <desco> help me! just a cursor is blinking on my console
[23:46] <Dannyboi> For Ubuntu not to default support my screen resolution is really annoying, it ruins thr whole OS experience, havving crap resolution.
[23:46] <_Zombie_> do recent linux distros support/have drivers for mice with more than 8 buttons, which allow you to assign each button sepperately without having to be a rocket scientist?
[23:46] <michalski> desco, thats usually a good sign on a console...
[23:46] <root____2> nith - http://paste.stgraber.org/1959
[23:46] <JarG0n> Zombie> A mouse with 8 buttons? :o
[23:46] <b0xxy> wat res Dannyboi
[23:46] <kestir> Hi, my system clock keeps slowing down.  Doesn't matter if I set it to manual or to sync with net servers.  Could it just be my CMOS battery?
[23:47] <desco> michalski: yep but I'd like to login ;)
[23:47] <nomopofomo> rbil: I'm just tinkering ^_^ I don't like giving up on things I've already started. About half way into this little project I realized that UNIX most definitely had other options like NFS.
[23:47] <Dannyboi> b0xxy    1280x800
[23:47] <b0xxy> u got widescreen laptop
[23:47] <b0xxy> ?
[23:47] <Dannyboi> yes
[23:47] <michalski> desco: oh lol ok most people like that...try hitting ctrl+c
[23:47] <b0xxy> cant help u there mate, got the same problem
[23:47] <_Zombie_> jargon the mouse wheel is considered 3 buttons, up/down/click - 2 thumb buttons, left/right button, 3 additional buttons on top - the mx 518
[23:47] <Dannyboi> LOL
[23:47] <rbil> nomopofomo: I don't run a ftp server here
[23:47] <Dannyboi> jees
[23:47] <nith> root____2: line 115 is compiz
[23:47] <b0xxy> :>
[23:48] <nomopofomo> rbil: Mkay. Could you show me what your first and second lines of your hosts file looks like to see if I can restore mine to normal?
[23:48] <Dannyboi> So Ubuntu doesnt support wide screen..and hooooow many new laptops are widescreen...90%?
[23:48] <b0xxy> hahaha
[23:48] <desco> michalski: doesn't work this method
[23:48] <nomopofomo> rbil: Which is easier to setup, NFS or SMB?
[23:48] <b0xxy> it suports 1280x7xx
[23:48] <b0xxy> and 848 or something?
[23:48] <Dannyboi> yup
[23:48] <tahcX> you guys got gnash working ?
[23:48] <rbil> 127.0.0.1       localhost
[23:48] <rbil> 127.0.1.1       Main-Ubuntu
[23:48] <b0xxy> haha
[23:48] <Dannyboi> i dont want 768nthough
[23:48] <b0xxy> yeh its gay :
[23:48] <ricanelite> yeah michalski
[23:48] <Dannyboi> i want 800
[23:48] <b0xxy> lol
[23:48] <FloodBot2> b0xxy: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[23:48] <rbil> nomopofomo: second one is the hostname of my local box
[23:48] <michalski> ricanelite: did it work?
[23:48] <dublpaws> pyrex-mode is borked for emacs!, anyone have a fix?
[23:49] <rbil> nomopofomo: so yours would be different of course
[23:49] <ricanelite> i dont know
[23:49] <michalski> desco: were you doing anything before it froze or did the login just not show up
[23:49] <ricanelite> i have the file i downloaded from adobe on my desktop
[23:49] <ricanelite> just dont know what to enter on the terminal
[23:49] <nomopofomo> rbil: That's the default hostname that Ubuntu gave you, right?
[23:49] <ricanelite> to get it going
[23:49] <rbil> nomopofomo: no, I made up that name
[23:49] <root____2> nith - okay so I've remove anything compiz now and xserver-xgl...
[23:49] <michalski> ricanelite: hold on i'll download the file and walk you through it, its been awhile since i've done this
[23:49] <nith> root____2: nonono
[23:50] <ricanelite> ok
[23:50] <nomopofomo> rbil: Default host file?
[23:50] <nomopofomo> rbil: *hosts
[23:50] <orudie> i just locked myself out of my home directory, how can remove the chmod
[23:50] <rbil> nomopofomo: to get your hostname do .... echo $HOSTNAME
[23:50] <desco> michalski: after boot. no prompt for login in consoles
[23:50] <unop_> rbil, or just use the hostname command
[23:50] <Dr_willis_> orudie,  sudo chmod OPTIONS /home/
[23:50] <nith> root____2: just turn it off for now, so "sudo kill 7194"
[23:50] <nomopofomo> rbil: I know what it is. I'm just making sure I've got things back to normal and that you hadn't personally changed it.
[23:50] <rbil> unop_: whatever
[23:50] <michalski> desco: is it just black or is there any text?
[23:51] <peter77> I'm having a few problems with daap between rhythembox and itunes, I've opened the ports 3689 and 5353 to network traffic in firestarter but unless I disable the it itunes is unable to discover my rhythembox library and vice versa
[23:51] <desco> michalski: black and no text jst the blinking cursor
[23:51] <root____2> nith - right now it plays the login music and goes to a screen which shows the Ubuntu colour ( u know that beige one)
[23:52] <nith> root____2: yup, so ctrl+alt+f1, then "sudo killall compiz.real"
[23:52] <michalski> desco: try hitting ctrl+alt+f1
[23:52] <anaoum> which distro is faster, debian or ubuntu
[23:52] <nith> root____2: then "ps -e | grep compiz.real" to make sure it died
[23:52] <rbil> nomopofomo: are the other boxes on your LAN all Linux boxes?
[23:52] <nomopofomo> rbil: Yes.
[23:52] <Dr_willis_> anaoum,  depends on how you benchmark, and your definition of faster. :)
[23:52] <nomopofomo> rbil: Actually not.
[23:52] <desco> michalski: I've used linux ;) another way?
[23:52] <anaoum> boot time
[23:52] <nith> root____2: once it's dead, go CTRL+ALT+F7 and see if it loaded the panels
[23:52] <Dr_willis_> anaoum,   i doubt if you will notice much diff. if you want faster boot.. disable all the services you dont need.
[23:53] <unop_> rbil, it shouldn't be whatever --- because the value of $HOSTNAME can change to 'whatever' :) it's not a good way to find out that info
[23:53] <rbil> nomopofomo: then NFS is probably the one to use over samba for sharing
[23:53] <michalski> desco: im stumped
[23:53] <dabbill> Any one able to help with http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/60888/ ?
[23:53] <anaoum> well, i feel that ubuntu is still a beginer distro - i am ready to move up, and am not sure which distro to go with
[23:53] <nomopofomo> rbil: I have an NFS share set up but can't mount it. :(
[23:54] <desco> michalski: vga=794 in grub. splash screen shows
[23:54] <michalski> ricanelite: ok, you have the folder open in front of you, and it has 2 files
[23:54] <rbil> unop_: hehe
[23:54] <Dannyboi> does ANY linux distro support widescreen????
[23:54] <digitalslave> anaoum, all are the same it their core you just need to dig into ubuntu
[23:54] <thisdyu> hey guys how do i get permissions to save a text file in the /etc folder with gedit?
[23:54] <michalski> ricanelite: correct?
[23:54] <Dr_willis_> anaoum,  use what ever you like. Ubuntu is not a 'beginner' disrto in the definition that it 'limits' you - You can do anything with it that you can with other disrtos.
[23:54] <Flannel> thisdyu: gksu gedit /etc/path/to/file

[23:54] <rbil> nomopofomo: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=249889
[23:54] <unop_> Dannyboi, sure, as long as your monitor is supported
[23:55] <thisdyu> Flannel: but in gui?
[23:55] <ricanelite> yes
[23:55] <Dr_willis_> anaoum,  Once you learn the linux fundamentals, they apply to all disrtos. You may want to go try sidux. its nifty.
[23:55] <WillieDaPimp> you guys seen this error yet??  granted i am running hardy heron beta
[23:55] <Flannel> thisdyu: That is in gui.  You can run that at a gnome-terminal, or alt-f2
[23:55] <anaoum> lol, i just want a text boot! i dont like the ubuntu splash screen
[23:55] <nomopofomo> rbil: Thanks for the help :)
[23:55] <Flannel> WillieDaPimp: #ubuntu+1 for Hardy
[23:55] <digitalslave> Dannyboi, 1080P here
[23:55] <WillieDaPimp> Flannel, thanks
[23:55] <michalski> desco: and then nothing... have you tried booting in the emergency mode to see if it boots properly and its just an error with X?
[23:55] <Flannel> anaoum: So turn off the splash/quiet in your grub conf
[23:56] <Dannyboi> It's a Laptop

[23:56] <julian_> its me again ;) on compiling my own kernel there are messages like LD, CC and then the file what does LD and CC mean? can anybody explain?
[23:56] <anaoum> Flannel: yeh i know - but thats too ugly
[23:56] <anaoum> i like the suse boot process :)
[23:56] <gauze_> CC is c compiler
[23:56] <Flannel> anaoum: Er... you just said you wanted a text boot.
[23:56] <gauze_> LD is the linker
[23:56] <michalski> ricanelite: double click flashplayer-installer, and the click "run in terminal" at the dialog box
[23:56] <gauze_> you don't need to know about them generally
[23:56] <julian_> thank you gauze_
[23:57] <BagelMaster> There IS a codec that will play .m4a files, right?
[23:57] <michalski> ricanelite: then just follow the prompts
[23:57] <julian_> gauze_, i was just interested what these messages mean :)

[23:57] <julian_> gauze_ right :)
[23:57] <anaoum> for some reason, suspend & hibernate work better in debian than ubuntu
[23:58] <arcticpenguin380> I want to downgrade to gutsy. When i reinstall gutsy will my /home be messed up?
[23:58] <julian_> gauze_,  i googelt it before but didnt came to a a page which explained it maybe i googelt wrong
[23:58] <untruehero> hello all
[23:58] <orudie> what would be the undo/reverse for chmod u=rw,go= file
[23:58] <legend2440> Dannyboi: read #1 http://www.mylittleubuntuguide.com/2007/10/20/ubuntu-gutsy-on-dell-inspiron-6400/
[23:58] <michalski> arctic: no
[23:58] <tim21> yuuups
[23:58] <unop_> anaoum, ubuntu and debian have deviated quite significantly, so yes, that's expected -- there are a few things ubuntu does better
[23:58] <rbil> arcticpenguin380: is /home on it's own partition?
[23:59] <michalski> ...wait...reinstall arcticpenguin380?
[23:59] <michalski> what do you mean
[23:59] <arcticpenguin380> yes on its seperate partition
[23:59] <arcticpenguin380> Im on hardy right now
[23:59] <anaoum> i think the only advantage ubuntu has over debian is its restricted drivers
[23:59] <michalski> when reinstalling, mark the /home partition as the /home partition to use....
[23:59] <unop_> orudie, you mean you want to revert back to the default permissions again ?
[23:59] <Itaku> e107 requires PHP to be installed or compiled with the MySQL extension to work correctly, please see the MySQL manual for more information.
[23:59] <rbil> arcticpenguin380: should be fine as long as you define home to mount from that partition
[23:59] <Itaku> how do i fix that
[23:59] <thisdyu> how do i find out what chipset my wifi card it?
