| Odd-rationale | Teoz: The first link given by ubotu has what you are looking for | 00:01 |

| Teoz | thanks guys :) ! | 00:01 |
| Odd-rationale | justin1990: I tried the first version. I havent downloaded the "rocket" vversion | 00:01 |
| bazhang | justin1990: sure; but not supported here; better to get the real deal @ www.ubuntu.com | 00:02 |
| Stepa1 | I am having a huge problem with my keyboard. It locks up, blicks lights, and does not work from time to time. I have never seen such a thing in my life. Can anyone help? I would think its a virus, but linux doesnt have those. ;-) | 00:02 |
| justin1990 | i have ubuntu 7.10 | 00:02 |
| justin1990 | but i thought this gOS is something like a desktop theme | 00:02 |
| Kuwanger | Stepa1: Not to be overly pessimistic, but it might be dying. | 00:02 |
| Odd-rationale | justin1990: No it is a dsitor based on ubutnu. | 00:02 |
| wers | how do I use hardy's human theme for my gutsy? | 00:02 |
| Kuwanger | Stepa1: My keyboard did something similar before it ended up dying. | 00:03 |
| justin1990 | so...can i install gOS ? | 00:03 |
| __mikem | its a distro, not a dsitor | 00:03 |
| thesurvivorman | with enlightenment installed too i think. | 00:03 |
| Odd-rationale | justin1990: You can add the gOS repo and install green-desktop to get gos on top of ubuntu | 00:03 |
| justin1990 | ah ok | 00:03 |
| bazhang | justin1990: sure; but then support here goes bye-bye ;] | 00:03 |
| justin1990 | lol | 00:03 |
| Stepa1 | Kuwanger: i would think so too, but it works good most of the time, but just when i need it most, its gone. | 00:03 |
| Kuwanger | Stepa1: Yep, something similar with me. How old is the keyboard? | 00:03 |
| Exfil | Im having a virtual host problem and looking for some help... im on ubuntu 7.1 running apache2.. i have the default sites-available file setup for 3 virtual hosts 2 of them work but one of them just brings me to the first domain | 00:04 |
| Stepa1 | Kuwanger: it just happened again, but i got it. a couple of years, but never one problem | 00:04 |
| px | what package is dig in? | 00:04 |
| Stepa1 | Kuwanger: after a reboot it doesnt give me any prob either | 00:05 |
| Kuwanger | Stepa1: Hmm..well, I don't know of anything else that could be causing it. Of course, if the keyboard is dying, it'll eventually be dead for good and you'll know that that was the problem. Other than that, I don't know what to recommend. | 00:05 |

| thesurvivorman | and then you'll need to hit yes on another screen i think | 00:06 |

| Exfil | dont post like that | 00:16 |
| xb3rt | Kuwanger: it works, but now i want to append the command 'sudo apt-get install -f' to the same alias | 00:16 |
| Grinder | I KNOW. | 00:16 |
| snowolf | sarixe: tried to restart X11? | 00:16 |
| Exfil | ok | 00:16 |
| sarixe | h/o | 00:16 |
| Kuwanger | sarixe: Messed up in what way? | 00:16 |
| sarixe | eh, colors are completely off | 00:16 |
| xb3rt | Kuwanger: What would the delimeters be to use multiple commands. | 00:16 |
| Kuwanger | xb3rt: Hmm? | 00:16 |
| nael | sarixe, have you tried using VLC? | 00:16 |
| sarixe | like, what should be skin-colored, is blue | 00:16 |
| sarixe | yes, vlc does the same | 00:16 |

| mendel | hi -- i was about to install mod_security for apache in hardy, but it seems to have disappeared from the repositories as of edgy. Strangely I can't find anyone talking about this. Any idea what's up with that? | 00:17 |
| sarixe | tried messing with the hue setting in totem, no effect | 00:17 |
| snowolf | sarixe: try with a x11 restart, I do experience the same problem from time to time (well my output is green with noises, audio fine) but usually a x11 restart solves it | 00:17 |
| sarixe | ok, i'll try that | 00:18 |
| nael | sarixe, is it all videos or just the one that is causing the problem? | 00:18 |
| sarixe | all vids | 00:18 |
| Kuwanger | xb3rt: You can use && to append commands together. | 00:18 |
| sarixe | brb | 00:18 |
| rumplesmigskin | sarixe: By any chance, are you using fglrx? I've had that problem before and didn't know how to fix it. | 00:18 |
| iKap | my pidgin wont connect :( | 00:18 |

| Grinder | lol | 00:18 |
| Kuwanger | xb3rt: What exactly are you going for? | 00:18 |
| xb3rt | Kuwanger: So it'd be something like alias up='sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -f' | 00:18 |
| iKap | Grinder, is pidgin experiencing probs? or is it just me? | 00:18 |
| Grinder | i was just on it well i swore.... lol... but im drunk. what does a drunk know | 00:19 |
| Grinder | iKap, I have no idea. hemm i drunk | 00:19 |
| iKap | lol | 00:19 |
| Grinder | iKap, it wont start for me. | 00:19 |
| Kuwanger | xb3rt: Are you planning on passing an arg to the second command? | 00:19 |
| xb3rt | Kuwanger: no | 00:19 |
| Grinder | all, how do i install flash? | 00:19 |
| Kuwanger | xb3rt: Okay.. Then, why not have both commands in a script? | 00:20 |
| nickrud | Grinder sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 00:20 |
| xb3rt | Grinder: did you try what I said, 'sudo apt-get install flash | 00:20 |
| Grinder | yes | 00:20 |
| Grinder | didnt work | 00:20 |
| nickrud | xb3rt that | 00:20 |
| nickrud | is not the packagename, flashplugin-nonfree is | 00:20 |

| Grinder | Package flashplugin-nonfree is not available, but is referred to by another package. | 00:20 |

| FloodBot2 | Grinder: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 00:20 |
| xb3rt | Kuwanger: so, basically i should just make a script, and use it like an alias | 00:20 |
| Grinder | is only available from another source | 00:20 |
| Kuwanger | xb3rt: If both commands are in a script, then running the script with sudo will mean both will be run as root intrinsically. | 00:21 |
| nickrud | Grinder don't do that anymore. The command you want is sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 00:21 |
| xb3rt | Kuwanger: I know that, but don't i have to be in the directory containing the sciprt | 00:22 |
| nickrud | Grinder if that doesn't work, let me know. You may need to enable some software sources | 00:22 |
| Kuwanger | xb3rt: Ie, you'd only have to answer the password once, or with a proper visudo setup, not at all. | 00:22 |

| Y1MMMY | wat up alllllllllllllll | 00:22 |
| sarixe | yeah, it turned out to be the hue... tried it one more time, and it worked | 00:22 |
| nickrud | !gutsysources | Grinder then do this, and try again: | 00:22 |
| ubotu | Grinder then do this, and try again:: gutsysources is in System->Admin->Software Sources, enable (main) (universe) (restricted) and (multiverse) and disable the Cdrom on the Ubuntu Software tab. On the Updates tab, enable (gutsy-security) and (gutsy-updates). | 00:22 |
| xb3rt | Kuwanger: Gotchya | 00:22 |
| sarixe | thanks whoever said it was the hue | 00:23 |
| Kuwanger | xb3rt: Hmm..actually.. "alias up=sudo ${HOME}/local/bin/script.sh" | 00:23 |
| jaffarkelshac | xb3rt, how do you clear aliases | 00:23 |

| nael | Administrador, , http://www.linuxhaxor.net/2007/09/05/68-linux-related-free-e-books/ | 00:56 |
| Kuwanger | kindofabuzz: vncserver, by default, runs Xvnc. Ie, it starts up a clean X server. | 00:56 |
| WelshDragon | Hey, i've found out sshd and bash is being executed every second. I now have 300+ running processes and a load average of 100. How can i fix it? | 00:56 |
| Flannel | WelshDragon: stop whatever is doing it. | 00:56 |
| WelshDragon | I don't know what's doing it | 00:56 |
| Kuwanger | kindofabuzz: If you want to do something different than that, you'll have to either read vncviewer's (and Xvnc's) man page..or choose another vnc program. | 00:57 |
| Flannel | WelshDragon: Check cron jobs? | 00:57 |
| vinoo | Kuwanger, got it, really don't work, <> appears instead backslash and | | 00:57 |
| WelshDragon | kk will do | 00:57 |
| FreeNod1 | nepbabu: yay! it works, but not for my thing :( ... says no such job but in top the process pops up lol | 00:57 |

| LjL | WelshDragon: is your ssh port open to the world? | 00:58 |
| Flannel | ricky_: #ubuntu+1 for Hardy questions, thanks. | 00:58 |
| nepbabu | heya LjL | 00:58 |
| kindofabuzz | Kuwanger: actually now, term says i'm connected but i see nothing on screen | 00:58 |
| ricky_ | i can hook up mine on 7.10, but on the newer beta a6, none of that works. | 00:58 |
| WelshDragon | Yes LjL, it's a dedicated server | 00:58 |
| Positronic | ricky_: Join #ubuntu+1 for Hardy Heron beta questions | 00:58 |
| nickrud | ricky_ #ubuntu+1 is handling hardy questions until release | 00:58 |
| vinoo | Kuwanger, yes, abnt2 | 00:58 |
| farkewie | hi how can i test if my bluetooth card is being detected? | 00:58 |
| WelshDragon | There are no cron jobs running either Flannel | 00:59 |
| LjL | WelshDragon: you might be the victim of an ssh attack attempt, check /var/log/auth.log | grep ssh | 00:59 |
| TaRDy | what is a good php/html editor/viewer? | 00:59 |
| ricanelite | when ubuntu hardy comes out i might do a install where i will use the hole harddrive on my notebook instead of just doing a partition. is there a way i could take a screenshot of my desktop with my settings and all. So if I do a install of hardy i could just load it up as it is now. Then instead of configuring everything? | 00:59 |
| WelshDragon | Ah yes | 00:59 |
| WelshDragon | I am LjL | 00:59 |
| Administrador | thanks for the help :) | 00:59 |
| WelshDragon | Umm...What do i do now? | 00:59 |
| ricky_ | i thought that was what i was asking about? no, | 00:59 |
| Kuwanger | kindofabuzz: Odd. | 01:00 |
| ricky_ | hardy heron, is that not the relase coming up? | 01:00 |
| LjL | WelshDragon, look at the IPs that are attempting to connect, do you see any pattern? | 01:00 |
| nickrud | !clone | ricanelite (plus all of your home, including dot files) | 01:00 |
| Kuwanger | kindofabuzz: Did you run something like "DISPLAY=:1 xterm"? | 01:00 |
| ubotu | ricanelite (plus all of your home, including dot files): To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade » - See also !automate | 01:00 |
| kindofabuzz | Kuwanger: yeah | 01:00 |
| Flannel | WelshDragon: Check out DenyHosts | 01:00 |
| vinoo | Kuwanger, i'll try another keyboard, thank u | 01:00 |
| kindofabuzz | Kuwanger: no | 01:00 |
| Flannel | WelshDragon: First, probably a good idea to cut it off for the time being, btu DenyHosts will block IPs after a number of attacks, etc. | 01:00 |
| WelshDragon | All Ip's are the same, I'll check out DenyHosts to block them | 01:00 |
| ricky_ | i was not asking a question about gustry gibbons: but about hardy heron????? | 01:00 |
| WelshDragon | If i cut it off i'll have no access to it? | 01:01 |
| kindofabuzz | CConn: connected to host 192.168.1.200 port 5901 but nothing on screen | 01:01 |

| hansderagon | Greetings. Anybody know where the plugins coming with FF 3.0 in Hardy reside on the disk? | 01:01 |
| Dimitree | ok thanks :) | 01:01 |
| hansderagon | There are many impressive plugins, but I would like to know how FF finds them. | 01:01 |
| Kuwanger | kindofabuzz: Um..is your vncviewer being ran on your Xvnc display? | 01:01 |
| WelshDragon | If i do killall sshd, it will just kill me but i can reconnect yes? | 01:01 |
| LjL | !hardy > hansderagon (hansderagon, see the private message from Ubotu) | 01:01 |
| ricky_ | i am lost! is this not the ubuntu room? what are you talking about....? | 01:01 |
| Flannel | WelshDragon: Ah, that's true. Well, check out deny hosts. | 01:01 |
| nickrud | hansderagon #ubuntu+1 is handling hardy questions until release | 01:02 |
| kindofabuzz | Kuwanger: i used this guide | 01:02 |
| Dimitree | what was that way of installing ubuntu that will load a single program format my HDD with it and then download the ubuntu image and install it ? | 01:02 |
| ricky_ | oh, is that a room by itself? | 01:02 |
| Chris| | anyone know why when i try to boot my dell inspiron 1420N noteboot with a ubuntu derivative such as gOS it goes to a ubuntu login screen and it doesnt allow me into it...? | 01:02 |

| Flannel | Dimitree: Check out the minimal ISO | 01:02 |
| DoggyDaddy59 | I have question about 32bit vs 64bit processors.... I was told that 32bit hardware can only access a maximum of 3GB of ram. I'm thinking of purchasing a new laptop and would like to know if Ubuntu 7.10 would be able to access the full 4GB if I installed it. | 01:02 |
| ricky_ | ok, i am in tune with the lingo, but thanks, i will go there..... | 01:02 |
| kindofabuzz | Kuwanger: if you're asking am i running viewer from the desktop then yeah | 01:02 |
| Dimitree | thank you Flannel :) | 01:02 |
| Dipingo | this the correct place to ask? | 01:02 |
| Flannel | !minimal | Dimitree | 01:03 |
| ubotu | Dimitree: 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 | 01:03 |
| nepbabu | Dipingo: #vmware | 01:03 |
| Dipingo | I think it is Ubuntu thought | 01:03 |
| Dipingo | though | 01:03 |
| nickrud | DoggyDaddy59 no, 32bit gets 3gb, you need 64bit for the rest. | 01:03 |
| talntidwrk | DoggyDaddy59, Are you talking Ubuntu 7.10 32bit or 64bit? | 01:03 |
| nepbabu | Dipingo: run vmware-config.pl and set it accordingly | 01:04 |
| Kuwanger | kindofabuzz: I'm curious about the "CConn: connected to host 192.168.1.200 port 5901" message. That looks like a vncviewer message. | 01:04 |
| Dimitree | windows SUX !!! Wohoo freedom again ^_^ | 01:04 |
| talntidwrk | UBUNTU 7.10 32 bit will see 3gb, Ubuntu 7.10 64bit will see more. | 01:04 |
| kindofabuzz | Kuwanger: yeah it is | 01:04 |
| Dipingo | nepbabu, ok ty | 01:04 |
| pharoh | how do i get my windows to open in say the centre of the display?mine open in the corner with the boarders hidden.so annoying! | 01:04 |
| frenchy_ | anyone here able to get warcraft 3 to work on wine and actually install the update/patch? | 01:05 |
| DoggyDaddy59 | I would change to Ubuntu 64 bit.... I understand that Vista can not currently access beyond 3GB without a patch that has not yet been released. | 01:05 |
| talntidwrk | 32 bit vista will not see past 3gb even with the patch | 01:05 |
| nepbabu | paradon: install devilspie | 01:05 |
| talntidwrk | it is a hardware limitation. | 01:05 |
| DoggyDaddy59 | Ahh,,, I see. | 01:06 |
| talntidwrk | Vista will LOOK like it is using more, but thats a marketing ploy. | 01:06 |
| nepbabu | pharoh: install devilspie | 01:06 |
| talntidwrk | If you switch to Ubuntu 64, it will see past 3gb. | 01:06 |
| Kuwanger | kindofabuzz: Hmm.. Not sure what to say without getting more info on what's happening. | 01:06 |
| Dimitree | Flannel em ... i need app that i can run under windows and then restart and then the app will load and install ubuntu ? is there such a way ? | 01:06 |
| talntidwrk | I am using 7.10 64bit on my brand new laptop. 4gb ram :) | 01:06 |
| Kuwanger | kindofabuzz: Want to open up a private message? | 01:06 |
| kindofabuzz | Kuwanger: sure | 01:06 |
| frenchy_ | What do you need 3gigs of ram for | 01:06 |

| JohnRobert_ | is there a way to insert the recipients name automatically in an email in evolution? | 01:07 |
| talntidwrk | I purchased a Dell Lattitude D830 | 01:07 |
| talntidwrk | I will admit though, thats only because I have a business account with them. | 01:07 |
| talntidwrk | I would prefer a Thinkpad | 01:07 |
| talntidwrk | but I got this dell for a killer deal. | 01:07 |

| DoggyDaddy59 | Great!... Another question about front side bus speed?..... I'm confused, | 01:07 |

| xb3rt | how come when I make an alias, if i close the terminal it goes away | 01:08 |
| Flannel | xb3rt: because it's only around for that bash session. Try adding it to .bashrc | 01:08 |
| Dimitree | Flannel i have no CD/DVD rom, i am running windows right now so i need something to format my HDD and install ubuntu downloading it from the net :) | 01:08 |

| FreeNod1 | nyarly_: I would like to go back into the terminal ui without terminating and restarting the thing :( | 01:17 |
| nickrud | xb3rt simply add the alias you want at the end of the file, and next time you log in it will be loaded automatically | 01:17 |
| pharoh | nickrud:not exactly,they snap lightly en then if i push they let move past. | 01:17 |
| nickrud | pharoh ok, you're using compiz | 01:17 |

| fismoll8 | hey guys...I am importing my desktop settings from a primary linux box to a secondary one. I transferred /home/bobo from the primary to the secondary, set up all the permissions and proper owners (secondary box only has one user, user bobo) then tried restarting gdm. It crashed. I have tried to start gdm a number of times; after I enter in my password, it seems like it's going to start....get an hourglass and everything...but then, no desktop. Anyo | 01:23 |
| nepbabu | !devilspie | pharoh | 01:23 |
| leo_rockw | Y1MMMY: i heard good things of kazehakase | 01:23 |
| ubotu | pharoh: devilspie is a tool that performs actions on windows in GNOME's metacity such as resizing, positioning, and pinning. Usage information can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Devilspie | 01:23 |
| LZ1 | leo_rockw: it's not mounted | 01:23 |
| SeaPhor | ok, all this is well and good, but, what about the problem at hand? | 01:23 |
| Y1MMMY | @leo_rockw thanks bud ill hit that up | 01:23 |
| leo_rockw | Y1MMMY: never tried it myself, tho (i'm all about konqueror) | 01:23 |
| Cann0n | MilitantPotato, i'd go to the store. | 01:24 |
| jimiridge | fismoll8, you should've just transfered the filders you really needed like .mozilla .thunderbird | 01:24 |
| jimiridge | might be .gconf that broke it | 01:24 |
| MilitantPotato | Cann0n: I guess he's to lazy :P | 01:24 |

| pygmymath | got you. | 01:28 |

| arvind_khadri | as i wanted the latest version | 01:28 |
| Cann0n | SeaPhor, the logical name is wpa2? | 01:28 |
| leo_rockw | pharoh: i didn't watch the video, but usually gnome-look.org and kde-look.org are great places to look for themes | 01:29 |
| nickrud | LZ1 try ls -l /dev/scd0 , what does it say about it? | 01:29 |
| arvind_khadri | leo_rockw, as i wanted to compile | 01:29 |

| pygmymath | Stwange: display :0 says not installed for me? | 01:29 |
| leo_rockw | arvind_khadri: did you try the version from the repos? | 01:29 |
| SeaPhor | from the wireless router | 01:29 |
| pygmymath | Stwange: have you tried running metacity --replace on the Xbox? | 01:29 |
| pygmymath | Stwange: or compiz --replace if you're compizing it | 01:30 |
| arvind_khadri | leo_rockw, those versions are older and have some bugs | 01:30 |
| Stwange | ill try it one second | 01:30 |
| leo_rockw | pygmymath: i like that verb... to compize | 01:30 |

| Cann0n | wasn't sure. it scrolled up and i was too lazy to scroll down | 01:33 |
| leo_rockw | arvind_khadri: those errors might be too specific to anjuta. did you check if there's an #anjuta channel? | 01:33 |
| leo_rockw | Cann0n: haha, ok | 01:33 |
| arvind_khadri | leo_rockw, sorry i didnt...will check out now | 01:33 |

| Ubuntu_latin | Need help. I have installed Apache 2 on Ubuntu 7.10 via apt-get but can't configure DocumentRoot, ServerAdmin and ServerName options. httpd.conf file is empty | 01:34 |
| nickrud | Ububegin apache2.conf has much of that. Other things are in sites-available and mods-available. To add those to the dynamically created http.conf, a2ensite and a2enmod | 01:35 |
| poseidon | Whats a good text editor for linux with good syntax highlighting? | 01:36 |
| leo_rockw | arvind_khadri: http://anjuta.sourceforge.net/downloads | 01:36 |
| Y1MMMY | oooooooo | 01:36 |
| nickrud | Ububegin for example, document root is set in sites-available/000-default, and since it's had a2ensite applied to it, it appears in sites-enabled | 01:36 |
| Y1MMMY | i like konquror | 01:36 |
| leo_rockw | arvind_khadri: use the unofficial repos, it would be easier than compiling | 01:36 |
| leo_rockw | Y1MMMY: you haven't seen anything yet... | 01:37 |
| skrimpy | bluefish is a bit more than a simple text editor but has great syntax highlighting | 01:37 |
| nickrud | Ubuntu_latin erm, the last two things were for you. Sorry Ububegin | 01:37 |
| light50 | poseidon: im trying bluefish | 01:37 |

| arvind_khadri | leo_rockw, which are those | 01:38 |
| asymptote | pygmymath, pidgin does not support voice chat | 01:39 |
| pygmymath | bigmack83: you can reinstall to the xp partition normally without touching ubuntu, but you'll have to reinstall grub afterwards | 01:39 |
| pygmymath | asymptote: aah | 01:39 |
| asymptote | leo_rockw, did you install kopete from source or is there a package | 01:39 |
| leo_rockw | arvind_khadri: in that link i gave you there are repos for feisty and gutsy | 01:39 |
| leo_rockw | asymptote: package. it's for kde | 01:39 |
| leo_rockw | arvind_khadri: edit the /etc/apt/sources.list file and add those | 01:39 |
| leo_rockw | arvind_khadri: then install from synaptic | 01:40 |

| pygmymath | SonicEpsilon: if you have doubts that its not latest do sudo apt-get update (gets updates) sudo apt-get upgrade | 01:55 |

| pygmymath | mattgyver83: not that i know of. but if you want to prune it you could pipe to grep? | 01:57 |
| brabbelj | @mattgyver use a regex with grep | 01:57 |
| leo_rockw | mattgyver83: something like ddclient? | 01:58 |
| IndyGunFreak | brabbelj: why do you type @username, it destroys the point because it doesn't alert them | 01:58 |
| lubosz | SonicEpsilon: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/products/download.html?product=firefox-2.0.0.13&os=linux&lang=en-US | 01:58 |
| SeaPhor | well, i'll post it here, if Cann0n or leo wants to try,,, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/61434/ | 01:59 |
| SonicEpsilon | so should I stop sudo | 01:59 |
| pygmymath | IndyGunFreak: irssi user? :P | 01:59 |
| Acomaco | pygmymath sorry for late reply, But yes | 01:59 |
| Acomaco | in the graphical part.. | 01:59 |
| SonicEpsilon | what do I do now, uninstall firefox? | 01:59 |
| brabbelj | IndyGunFreak: I forgot it ^^ | 01:59 |
| jhonijim | mattgyver83 whatsmyip.net | 01:59 |
| IndyGunFreak | pygmymath: ot really sure what irssi has to do w/ it. | 01:59 |
| pygmymath | Acomaco: get a terminal and do sudo fdisk -l to list all volumes... | 01:59 |
| Acomaco | its reformating atm .. | 02:00 |
| pygmymath | IndyGunFreak: irssi does alerts if you have the name at the start, didnt know if that was a cross program thing | 02:00 |
| pygmymath | Acomaco: heh whens its done then | 02:00 |
| leo_rockw | IndyGunFreak: it does alert konversation users :-P | 02:00 |
| IndyGunFreak | pygmymath: to my knowledge, thats how all the IRC programs alert.. | 02:00 |
| pygmymath | Acomaco: but it should have like HDA HDB et.. | 02:00 |
| lubosz | SonicEpsilon: why dont you wait till its in the repos? | 02:00 |
| arvind_khadri | leo_rockw, the version from the repo is full buggy | 02:00 |
| Acomaco | pygmymath, would you recomend me to do apt-get install apache2, or get the source and compile it myself? | 02:01 |
| IndyGunFreak | leo_rockw: well, anyone dumb enought o use konversation, should be banned..lol | 02:01 |
| kindofabuzz | go tigers! | 02:01 |
| arvind_khadri | leo_rockw, tats the reason i wanted to compile | 02:01 |
| leo_rockw | IndyGunFreak: :-O you insult me, good sir! | 02:01 |
| mattgyver83 | Theres no way to get that IP from the terminal? | 02:01 |
| Acomaco | there is mattgyver83, try ifconfig | 02:01 |
| Daisuke_Ido | IndyGunFreak, people should be able to use whatever client they like, isn't linux about freedom to choose? | 02:01 |
| mattgyver83 | Acomaco, it just gives my internal IP address, not my external | 02:02 |
| IndyGunFreak | Daisuke_Ido: look up "facetious" int he dictionary | 02:02 |
| pygmymath | Acomaco: apt-get, im not amazing at linux heh but i kno that if you apt-get it'll do updates automatically | 02:02 |
| Flannel | mattgyver83: That's correct. There's no way (other than connecting to the internet, or checking with the machine that is internet facing) to get it | 02:02 |
| leo_rockw | IndyGunFreak: lol | 02:02 |
| Daisuke_Ido | sorry, sarcasm detector isn't working well tonight :P | 02:02 |
| mattgyver83 | Flannel, Thanks. | 02:02 |
| IndyGunFreak | leo_rockw: well, i thought people could tell i was kidding | 02:02 |
| Acomaco | mattgyver83, this is pretty newbish.. but do wget whatismyip.com then do nano the file ^^ | 02:02 |
| leo_rockw | IndyGunFreak: i could | 02:02 |
| mattgyver83 | Acomaco, thats a good idea. | 02:03 |
| IndyGunFreak | lol, well it wasn't lost on everyone then | 02:03 |
| leo_rockw | IndyGunFreak: you bitch...X | 02:03 |
| Flannel | mattgyver83: Why do you want to get your ip every hour or so? | 02:03 |
| IndyGunFreak | lol | 02:03 |
| mattgyver83 | yes, and email through the google api to myself. | 02:03 |
| Flannel | mattgyver83: why? | 02:03 |
| Daisuke_Ido | mattgyver83, is this for knowing the ip for, say, sshing in from elsewhere? | 02:03 |
| leo_rockw | mattgyver83: if you're trying to ssh like Daisuke_Ido suggested, just use dyndns | 02:04 |
| mattgyver83 | Basically to connect with VNC. I dont have a static IP. | 02:04 |
| qcjn | how to install a sata hd via a pci controller | 02:04 |
| leo_rockw | mattgyver83: then use dyndns and ddclient | 02:04 |
| Daisuke_Ido | mattgyver83, dyndns | 02:04 |
| Daisuke_Ido | yeah, leo beat me to it | 02:04 |
| Acomaco | mattgyver83, i was about to suggest you no-ip ^^ | 02:04 |
| rhineheart_m | Is there a way to change the homedirectory of a user? | 02:04 |
| zekaito | the ubuntu os keeps saying I can't do certain things cuz I am not root. I've tried every thing I could find on the web to log in as root but nothign works. this I my computer damn it, I should be the fuckin root | 02:05 |
| chuy | change a home dir? | 02:05 |
| leo_rockw | !ohmy | zekaito | 02:05 |
| ubotu | zekaito: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 02:05 |
| chuy | have you tried 'sudo passwd' | 02:05 |
| zekaito | yes | 02:05 |
| leo_rockw | zekaito: yeah, like in XP right? ;-) | 02:05 |
| chuy | what did 'sudo passwd' do? | 02:05 |
| Acomaco | LoL! i love my broadband so badly! The installation went faster with ftp install than with cdrom XD | 02:06 |
| Flannel | zekaito, chuy, don't set the root password, and don't login as root. zekaito, ubuntu uses sudo instead of the root account. | 02:06 |
| TeacherTomL | Hi all. Ubuntu (and Linux) nubie here. Trying to get Ubuntu to boot from a separate partition on my Windows XP. Grub installed on the other partition, but the machine keeps booting to Windows XP. Where should I go for HELP? | 02:06 |
| fuffalo | how do i play RM files with totem? | 02:06 |
| zekaito | it said it changed the root password, but I still can't login | 02:06 |
| mattgyver83 | These are all good ideas, id rather learn how to write a script to do that, just to learn. | 02:06 |
| leo_rockw | zekaito: don't login as root | 02:06 |
| chuy | try "su" | 02:06 |
| leo_rockw | mattgyver83: learn bash or python | 02:06 |
| chuy | then enter your sudo passwd | 02:06 |
| pygmymath | sudo -i is how i roll heh | 02:06 |
| leo_rockw | mattgyver83: they are easy to start learning how to program | 02:07 |
| Flannel | chuy: Please don't recommend people set their root passwords in this channel, thanks. | 02:07 |
| Acomaco | uhm...guys... | 02:07 |
| leo_rockw | zekaito: this is not windows, do not login as root, it's not smart | 02:07 |
| mattgyver83 | Yeah, bash i can figure out really easy, its more some of the terminal and editing commands id have to learn. | 02:07 |
| Acomaco | I installed ubuntu server to my computer...but i never got to choose a username and password.... | 02:07 |
| leo_rockw | mattgyver83: try living without X for a week and you'll be forced to learn | 02:07 |
| Acomaco | and the installation is complete now and i'm at bootscreen... | 02:07 |
| zekaito | my machine, my rules | 02:07 |
| Zoris | anyone know how I can change the ubuntu logo to something else on the menu bar? | 02:07 |
| leo_rockw | zekaito: ok, your machine, you figure it out | 02:07 |
| Daisuke_Ido | quick, root the admin-obsessed newbie | 02:08 |
| Daisuke_Ido | there's a REASON the root account is disabled | 02:08 |
| leo_rockw | Daisuke_Ido: lol | 02:08 |
| zekaito | a lot of times I try to do something and It says I can't cuz I am not logined in as root | 02:08 |
| Daisuke_Ido | if you want to do something, you use sudo | 02:08 |
| Flannel | zekaito: Yes, you use sudo to do it. | 02:08 |
| rhineheart_m | chuy, Yeah I want to change the home dir with write access | 02:08 |
| Daisuke_Ido | that's what sudo is FOR | 02:08 |
| Acomaco | zekaito, you should use sudo | 02:08 |
| zekaito | ubuntu has too much security | 02:08 |
| pygmymath | zekaito: it does that so that if someone else breaks into your computer then they cant just flatten it. your computer your rules | 02:08 |
| Acomaco | zekaito your wrong, it has to weak security | 02:08 |
| Daisuke_Ido | O <- head. wall.-> || join the two repeatedly | 02:09 |
| leo_rockw | zekaito: XP has no security | 02:09 |
| leo_rockw | Daisuke_Ido: rofl | 02:09 |
| zekaito | so I am limited to doing things as root using the terminal? | 02:09 |
| Scunizi | zekaito, that I've never heard before | 02:09 |
| leo_rockw | zekaito: that's a negative | 02:09 |
| Acomaco | IMO, put 4 passwords in a row to prevent bruteforce! | 02:09 |
| chuy | no sudo in front of every command will give you root access for that command | 02:09 |
| Y1MMMY | if any one could help me out with flash in konquror that would be great | 02:09 |
| zekaito | but can I have root access using the GUI | 02:10 |
| Flannel | zekaito: yes. | 02:10 |
| Daisuke_Ido | zekaito, that's not only dumb, it's really dumb | 02:10 |
| Daisuke_Ido | but if you want to, feel free | 02:10 |
| rhineheart_m | Is anybody here have a knowledge on how to change the home dir of a user? | 02:10 |
| pygmymath | zekaito: if you wanna copy files and stuff, do gksudo nautilus - that'll open the file browser as root. | 02:10 |
| === noodly- is now known as NoodLy | ||
| zekaito | why is having root access dumb? | 02:10 |
| leo_rockw | zekaito: gksudo nautilus, have fun | 02:10 |
| Acomaco | rhineheart_m change /etc/passwd | 02:10 |
| chuy | sudo vi /etc/passwd and find the user you wanna change | 02:10 |
| Flannel | zekaito: `gksu nautilus` will give you a root nautilus window, be EXTREMELY careful with it, close it as soon as you're done. And don't say we didn't warn you. | 02:10 |
| pygmymath | zekaito: its not dumb, you have it in the form of sudo and gksudo. | 02:11 |
| IndyGunFreak | zekaito: just bre careful what you're doing while in root nautilus | 02:11 |
| rhineheart_m | would that change the dir? | 02:11 |
| Flannel | chuy, Acomaco, rhineheart_m, usermod. No need to edit things by hand. | 02:11 |
| chuy | you will have to find the user and change it accordingly | 02:11 |
| leo_rockw | zekaito: being root all the time is pointless and not safe | 02:11 |
| pygmymath | zekaito: but for example - running firefox as a user means firefox can change less files and is less likely to give you a virus | 02:11 |
| rhineheart_m | I want to specify a homedir to give full access to my user.. so that I could simply transfer files using winscp | 02:11 |
| leo_rockw | zekaito: that's why there are no widespread virus in linux | 02:12 |
| rhineheart_m | well, here you go Flannel...may I hear your words... | 02:12 |
| mohamed_ | hello all, i want to buy a new vga card, any recommendation which i can buy that work well with ubuntu ? | 02:12 |
| zekaito | thanks, but are you saying having root access while using the gui is dumb cuz I could easily screw things up? | 02:12 |
| rhineheart_m | mohamed_, are you building a desktop or a server? | 02:12 |
| chuy | yes | 02:12 |
| leo_rockw | zekaito: yes | 02:12 |
| pygmymath | zekaito: not just that, someone else could for you. | 02:13 |
| Dimitree | How to obtain Intel Graphics drivers for ubuntu ? Help :) | 02:13 |
| mohamed_ | rhineheart_m, desktop | 02:13 |
| pygmymath | zekaito: i say that from experience aswell.. i had to reinstall a couple of times from annihilating various things. | 02:13 |
| rhineheart_m | mohamed_, I thought server... | 02:13 |
| leo_rockw | zekaito: if you're admin all the time anybody else could get admin privileges and delete every single file | 02:13 |
| IndyGunFreak | Dimitree: depends on the intel graphics shipset | 02:13 |
| zekaito | by the way, I can't get my nvidia ck804 ac'97 audio card working | 02:13 |
| Flannel | zekaito: because a stray click while moving can copy, delete, move, whatever, stuff that shouldn't be copied/moved/etc. Command line is much harder (although still possible) to do things by complete accident | 02:13 |
| rhineheart_m | so.. where's Flannel...where ya boy? | 02:13 |
| Dimitree | IndyGunFreak, DG31PR with GMA 3100 :) | 02:13 |
| mohamed_ | rhineheart_mi have ATI x600 but i failed to make it run well | 02:14 |
| pygmymath | zekaito: drivers on the site i believe | 02:14 |
| Flannel | rhineheart_m: what? | 02:14 |
| zekaito | what site? | 02:14 |
| IndyGunFreak | Dimitree: that makes no sense at all.. .open a terminal and type "lspci" and see how it identifies your intel graphics device | 02:14 |
| Ashfire908 | Ok, i logged in today and i went the use the menu and the "Applications" tab was empty. i went to edit the menu and the program never started. i found the prgram's name and when i run it i get a error and a python traceback. http://pastebin.com/d336f5465 | 02:14 |
| rhineheart_m | Flannel, I thought you have a bright idea on how to change the home dir of a user? so that I could easily manipulate files in my /var/www | 02:14 |
| pygmymath | zekaito: nvidia | 02:14 |
| CJS3141 | I found an interesting "wmdockapp" at dockapps.org that I was hoping to try out--in general, are there any issues using wmdockapps with ubuntu? | 02:15 |
| zekaito | I found linux drivers, but none of them are .deb | 02:15 |
| leo_rockw | mohamed_: yeah, until the good free drivers come out ATI is not very advisable | 02:15 |
| pygmymath | mohamed_: if you're looking for desktop effects you'll have to roll with xgl | 02:16 |
| leo_rockw | pygmymath: latest fglrx has aiglx | 02:16 |
| SeaPhor | zekaito, Envy works well with Nvidia and ATI cards | 02:16 |
| leo_rockw | SeaPhor: it's for a sound card | 02:16 |
| Daisuke_Ido | !envy | SeanTater | 02:16 |
| ubotu | SeanTater: 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 » | 02:16 |
| Daisuke_Ido | err | 02:16 |
| IndyGunFreak | SeanTater: do not recommend tha ttrash | 02:16 |
| mohamed_ | leo_rockw, pygmymath i don't need effecti'm more interest in video, and images | 02:16 |
| Flannel | rhineheart_m: usermod will do it. But, you'd probably be better off adding that user to the www-data group, and letting it ride the group permission coattails. | 02:16 |
| Daisuke_Ido | i'm not the only one who highlighted the wrong person -_- | 02:16 |
| zekaito | do I find that using the add/remove interface or synaptic pakage manager | 02:17 |
| Dimitree | IndyGunFreak, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/61438/ help please i can see gpu in there ? | 02:17 |
| leo_rockw | lol | 02:17 |
| Positronic | most nvidia cards will work out of the box if the proprietary driver is enabled, zekaito | 02:17 |
| pygmymath | leo_rockw: thats how i rolled heh. thankfully my ati card popped and the new nvidia is in the case ready for some drivers heh | 02:17 |
| CJS3141 | Anybody else used any wmdockapps? | 02:17 |
| Dimitree | cant | 02:17 |
| zcat[1] | what does video playback plugin in compiz actually do? | 02:17 |
| IndyGunFreak | SeaPhor: envy is horrid advice | 02:17 |
| rhineheart_m | Flannel, so how to add a user with sudo power to www-data group? | 02:17 |
| zekaito | the graphics part works but the sound doesn't | 02:17 |
| leo_rockw | pygmymath: but i heard aiglx on the amd drivers are worse than using xgl (i don't use compiz, so idk) | 02:18 |
| SeaPhor | indy, sorry you disagree with me | 02:18 |
| diego27 | hola | 02:18 |
| Johnny_5 | when i use the live cd to try to recover files from a comp i'm workin' on i can't seem to get the hdd to mount. would the fact that its a NTFS file system be why? | 02:18 |
| leo_rockw | diego27: hey diego. only english in this channel. | 02:18 |
| pygmymath | leo_rockw: i couldn't run anything 3d. hopefully with nvidia ill have wine running steam heh | 02:18 |
| mohamed_ | leo_rockw, pygmymath unfortunately i have also new motherboard with builtin ATI x1200 | 02:18 |
| diego27 | hello | 02:18 |
| pygmymath | leo_rockw: compiz is nice :) | 02:18 |
| leo_rockw | pygmymath: yeah, to show off. i don't find it useful. | 02:18 |
| leo_rockw | mohamed_: i have x1400. i use fglrx (the only driver that works for me) | 02:19 |
| pygmymath | leo_rockw: group windows is good on a 7" screen :P extra wm actions and trailfocus heh | 02:19 |
| leo_rockw | diego27: ;-) lol | 02:19 |
| mohamed_ | leo_rockw, this can work also with x1200 ? | 02:19 |
| leo_rockw | pygmymath: i can't hear you, i can't hear you | 02:19 |
| * leo_rockw buries his head in the AMD site | 02:19 | |
| Ashfire908 | the menu's "Applications" tab was empty and when i run alacarte i get a error and a python traceback. http://pastebin.com/d336f5465 | 02:20 |
| leo_rockw | mohamed_: i'm not sure, check out in amd.com | 02:20 |
| mohamed_ | thx, i will do | 02:20 |
| leo_rockw | pygmymath: i got used to not using it because it didn't run with the old fglrx drivers. | 02:20 |
| Flannel | rhineheart_m: sudo usermod -G www-data -a username | 02:20 |
| pygmymath | leo_rockw: don't worry, i mostly run console apps on this laptop :P | 02:20 |
| leo_rockw | pygmymath: yeah, i'm all about yakuake :-P | 02:20 |
| SimplySeth | is there a how to on forcing one sound card to be primary over the other ? | 02:20 |
| leo_rockw | mohamed_: there are fglrx drivers in the repos, but idk how updated they are | 02:21 |
| IndyGunFreak | SeaPhor: its not just me that disagrees with you, trust me | 02:21 |
| FFVV | is there a apt-get openssl or anything? apt-cache search openssl didnt show the actual openssl | 02:21 |
| jengelh | SimplySeth: index= parameter to the module | 02:21 |
| pygmymath | leo_rockw: never used.. *google* mocp, finch & irssi heh.. but i got pidgin for when im browsing the webternets | 02:21 |
| leo_rockw | SeaPhor: easyubuntu, automatix and envy are not advisable | 02:21 |
| SimplySeth | jengelh: hmmm | 02:21 |
| Acomaco | pygmymath i did fdisk -l, it only found hdc, i did /dev/hd then pressed tab two times, and there was hdd | 02:21 |
| Acomaco | how can i check if that hdd is my other disk? | 02:21 |
| IndyGunFreak | leo_rockw: i don't think easyubuntu even exists anymore | 02:21 |
| SeaPhor | spend 28 minutes arguing with 1 n00b, discussing stuff that should be learned as part of whether you want to do linux or not, while another n00b (ME) has had the same problem for months, and has been on here the last 3 nights and still no answer, much less a solution | 02:21 |
| mohamed_ | leo_rockw, everything was working fine till ubuntu gutsy installed, then no good vga from this time :) | 02:21 |
| leo_rockw | IndyGunFreak: neither does automatix, per se | 02:22 |
| SimplySeth | jengelh: index=1 .. would be primary and -2 means what ? | 02:22 |
| Dimitree | IndyGunFreak, can you help please ? :) | 02:22 |
| jengelh | index goes from 0 anywhere upwards. | 02:22 |
| IndyGunFreak | Dimitree: that graphics device is not supported in gutsy, it works great in hoary. | 02:22 |
| IndyGunFreak | *hardy | 02:22 |
| IndyGunFreak | not hoary | 02:22 |
| SimplySeth | jengelh: and what does -2 mean ? | 02:22 |
| Ashnal | So im trying to install ubutu 7.04 on a desktop and after the kernel loads the screen is blank with the blinking cursor for a few seconds then it spits out a whole screen of lines of the error "Unknown interrupt or fault in the EIP (numbers and such)" | 02:22 |
| jengelh | SimplySeth: A kernel panic, basically. | 02:22 |
| pygmymath | Acomaco: thats pretty crazy.. from here i dont have a clue to be honest | 02:22 |
| IndyGunFreak | SeaPhor: what are you ranting about | 02:22 |
| SimplySeth | jengelh: weird | 02:22 |
| leo_rockw | mohamed_: fesity didn't even boot for me without fglrx | 02:22 |
| Ashfire908 | the menu's "Applications" tab was empty and when i run alacarte i get a error and a python traceback. http://pastebin.com/d336f5465 kinda hard to use the menu when it's blank. | 02:22 |
| Dimitree | IndyGunFreak, what is Hardy ? | 02:22 |
| zcat[1] | !hardy | 02:23 |
| ubotu | Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 24, 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE BETA SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu | 02:23 |
| jengelh | SimplySeth: maybe it's a linked list, maybe it's an array; dunno. | 02:23 |
| IndyGunFreak | Dimitree: next version of ubuntu, out next month | 02:23 |
| Dimitree | cool :) can i install it now lol ? | 02:23 |
| IndyGunFreak | Dimitree: that would be really dumb | 02:23 |
| leo_rockw | hardy is lts only for gnome | 02:23 |
| Ashfire908 | sorry for repeating by hard to use the system when i havn't memorized the program's execatuable name | 02:23 |
| SimplySeth | jengelh: great thanks .. now I have to find out what device my sound card is using | 02:23 |
| SeaPhor | and if you just want to argue about Envy forget it , I agree with you in all but the cases i cant figure out on my own, Because I'm A N00b | 02:23 |
| Dimitree | IndyGunFreak, why dumb ? if its out next month it means that its ready no ? | 02:24 |
| leo_rockw | Dimitree: you could, but you'd have to be fighting bugs | 02:24 |
| * zcat[1] is running hardy .. seems pretty stable so far | 02:24 | |
| IndyGunFreak | SeaPhor: all the more reason not to recommend it.. i know shit about flying a plane, so i just choose not to give advice about it. | 02:24 |
| Acomaco | pygmymath, what do you need to know? | 02:24 |
| IndyGunFreak | Dimitree: no, not at all... | 02:24 |
| leo_rockw | Dimitree: nope, it's all buggy | 02:24 |
| jengelh | SimplySeth: quoting the source: " /* idx == -1 == 0xffff means: take any free slot */ | 02:24 |
| leo_rockw | Dimitree: it's there so people can install it and report bugs and help with its development | 02:24 |
| Dimitree | how can be out next month then ? | 02:24 |
| Ashnal | anyone here who can help me? | 02:24 |
| pygmymath | Acomaco: if fdisk -l cant find it isnt being picked up by ubuntu, from there i dont know what the problem could be at all | 02:24 |
| IndyGunFreak | Dimitree: use the next month to learn how to use ubuntu, the package manager, etc, then when its time to upgrad,e upgrade and you'll have compiz | 02:24 |
| nickrud | IndyGunFreak clean that up, and submit it as a factoid, something like badadvice ;) | 02:24 |
| IndyGunFreak | nickrud: lol.. i've had some ringers for !badadvice..lol | 02:25 |
| Dimitree | IndyGunFreak, ok then thank yuo very much for the information and help :) | 02:25 |
| SimplySeth | jengelh: very well then .. thanks for your time .. I set to 0 .. hopefullly it will be primary | 02:25 |
| leo_rockw | Dimitree: if, at the very least, you don't know how to do stuff with X then hardy is not for you yet. | 02:25 |
| Acomaco | pygmymath, okey thank you :) | 02:25 |
| leo_rockw | Dimitree: you *do* know how to... | 02:26 |
| jengelh | SimplySeth: make sure no others go on 0 | 02:26 |
| SeaPhor | indy, if you want me to rant, i wont, but if you think me saying to someone that doesn't know how to get their card working and have 1 thing that worked for me when nothing else would is a rant,,,get your kick/ban button ready | 02:26 |
| leo_rockw | Dimitree: lemme rephrase that lol. "hardy can break X" if you don't know how to live w/o X then hardy is not for you. | 02:26 |
| Dimitree | leo_rockw, i just want to use 1024x768 and 85h refresh rate so i can keep my eyes haha :) right now i can only do 60h refresh and its killing me | 02:26 |
| rhineheart_m | I can't still create directory in /var/www using winscp.. m using the username with sudo power.. any idea? | 02:26 |
| SimplySeth | jengelh: no .. I checked for that .. they are all at -2 | 02:26 |
| SimplySeth | jengelh: except of course the one I set to 0 :) | 02:26 |
| leo_rockw | Dimitree: like i said, you might not even have X in hardy at the moment | 02:27 |
| maynards-girl | 8.04 comes out the 10th? | 02:27 |
| pygmymath | > 60 hz kills my eyes :/ hum | 02:27 |
| IndyGunFreak | SeaPhor: i could care less, but thats horrid advice, i' guessing it won't stop you from giving it. | 02:27 |
| Dimitree | leo_rockw, that all you needed to say :D no X no Linux for me haha | 02:27 |
| SimplySeth | jengelh: sadly .. I can't disable my internal sound device on my lappy :-/ | 02:27 |
| zcat[1] | hardy can break anything at all right now... if you don't know how to fix the system when it won't even boot, hardy might not be for you.. | 02:27 |
| Twan | I'm trying to install Ubuntu remotely onto my laptop. My laptop has a PXE 2.1 client (Intel Boot Agent) installed. Is anyone familiar with installing from a desktop to a laptop with Intel boot agent? | 02:27 |

| IndyGunFreak | SeaPhor: and if you're going to go to the trouble of typing my name to alert me,t ype my whole name.. typing part oof it is uselss. | 02:28 |
| IndyGunFreak | !tab | SeaPhor | 02:28 |
| ubotu | SeaPhor: You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 02:28 |
| Dimitree | leo_rockw, defenatly not for me then :) too bad i have to watch this 60h refresh screen :/ | 02:28 |
| leo_rockw | maynards-girl: the 24th | 02:28 |
| genefitz | correction noted | 02:28 |
| maynards-girl | leo_rockw, thanks | 02:28 |
| SeaPhor | ok, thats fine and i can accept that, but do you have any good avice on the problem at hand? | 02:28 |
| Ashfire908 | the menu's "Applications" tab was empty and when i run alacarte i got a error about xml. python traceback: http://pastebin.com/d336f5465 | 02:28 |
| rhineheart_m | IndyGunFreak, that can only be true to most of the IRC clients.. but not xchat | 02:28 |
| leo_rockw | genefitz: i'm running the beta too, i have problems with ati (like that's surprising at all...) | 02:29 |
| Twan | Does anyone know how to remotely install Ubuntu? | 02:29 |
| IndyGunFreak | rhineheart_m: well i don't get alerted when soemone says "indy" or "IGF" or "Indygun".. or some other lazy way that people refer to me. | 02:29 |
| Flannel | Twan: What do you mean by remotely? | 02:29 |
| genefitz | leo_rockw: for all the great things supported in Linux, ATI has never been one of them. | 02:29 |
| leo_rockw | genefitz: it was ati or 400 dollars more for nvidia. i didn't have that money when i bought this lappy... | 02:29 |
| rhineheart_m | Flannel, got an idea about my issue? | 02:30 |
| leo_rockw | IndyGunFreak: i'm more lazy, i hit tab :-P | 02:30 |
| pygmymath | Twan: theres a guide in the community docs on the ubuntu site, google might be your best friend here | 02:30 |
| pygmymath | its a pretty rare thing | 02:30 |
| genefitz | leo_rockw: I can understand that. I am running it on a desktop. much cheaper cards. | 02:30 |
| IndyGunFreak | leo_rockw: thats not lazy, thats the way its supposed to be done...lol | 02:30 |
| leo_rockw | IndyGunFreak: i hate autocompletion... i hit tab expecting it wil autocomplete my thoughts... | 02:30 |
| Twan | Flannel: I have something on my laptop called 'Intel Boot Agent'. It basically uses the network card to read an image from a server to install on that system. | 02:30 |
| Ashfire908 | could someone just tell me where the menu config file is or something? | 02:31 |
| Twan | Anyways, I have my PC talking to my laptop, but I don't have a server on my PC. | 02:31 |
| IndyGunFreak | lol | 02:31 |
| Twan | I need to find an application that can speak with my laptop using the boot agent (PXE 2.1). | 02:31 |
| zamnedix | Ashfire908 are you talking about for grub? | 02:31 |
| genefitz | leo_rockw: I haven't tried ubuntu on my notebook yet, it has the double whammy, ATI video and Sigmatel audio, nistorically, neither has been supported in Linux | 02:31 |
| leo_rockw | zamnedix: no, Ashfire908 is talking about gnome | 02:31 |
| zamnedix | oh. | 02:31 |
| Ashfire908 | zamnedix, i know where the gurb menu is. i'm talking about the gnome menu | 02:31 |

| nickrud | genefitz my ati 200m and sigmatel 3stack (disguised as ati sb4x0) works great (and broadcom) | 02:32 |
| leo_rockw | genefitz: i got everything working :-D | 02:32 |

| nickrud | genefitz let me rephrase that, Works for Me™ ;) | 02:33 |
| genefitz | leo_rockw: that's great.. | 02:33 |
| Ashfire908 | sorry first i run out of space, then after i got some space i have no menu | 02:33 |
| Flannel | Twan: that would be netboot | 02:33 |
| Ashfire908 | Scunizi, yes but alacale or whatever it's called crashes | 02:33 |
| Twan | I think I found something. | 02:33 |
| Twan | http://hugi.to/blog/archive/2006/12/23/ubuntu-pxe-install-via-windows | 02:33 |
| QDogg | I think alacarte has wrecked my applications menu. I was removing programs from my main menu (just programs that I don't use) and all of a sudden I cannot I cannot open the applications menu. I am using Gutsy | 02:33 |
| genefitz | leo_rockw: did you have to run that special script to get the sigmatel sound to work? | 02:33 |
| leo_rockw | genefitz: i compiled alsa from source | 02:33 |
| Scunizi | Ashfire908, you can right mouse click on Applications and choose "Edit Menus" | 02:34 |
| SeaPhor | i said from the start and in most that I am a n00b, i just figured out how to get to IRC 3 days ago, BUT, i am not an idiot, and i get offended when someone who is not even trying to help me in a place that i'm asking for help, tells me i'm ranting,,, fine, i get it, i've wasted 3 nights hoping here, i must admit this is the only night that i have witnessed these responses, good night and good-bye | 02:34 |
| SimplySeth | anybody have any issues with having to enter your password in twice using GNOME ? | 02:34 |
| nickrud | QDogg try alt-f2 killall gnome-panel , it will restart the panel and reset the menus | 02:34 |

| pygmymath | leo_rockw: hardcore. | 02:34 |
| leo_rockw | bye SeaPhor, have fun | 02:34 |
| Twan | But yes that is talking about 'netboot' | 02:34 |
| leo_rockw | genefitz: it works like a charm now :-P | 02:34 |
| bnex10 | hey i would love to disable ipv6 in general | 02:34 |
| bnex10 | most daemons tend to use ipv6 | 02:34 |
| Ashfire908 | Scunizi, i told you, the program crashes | 02:34 |
| leo_rockw | pygmymath: i used to run slackware, compiling was part of my daily life :-P | 02:35 |
| genefitz | I always run into some kind of issue while trying to compile using Ubuntu, Strangely enough I never had many problems in Fedora.. I think because I could log in root.. | 02:35 |
| Scunizi | SeaPhor, SeaPhor what are you trying to do that you're not getting any help on? | 02:35 |
| leo_rockw | Scunizi: he's just arguing that envy is good | 02:35 |
| pygmymath | leo_rockw: heh fair play. i've been considering slackware but.. ubuntu i love | 02:35 |
| pygmymath | leo_rockw: whats envy? | 02:35 |
| bnex10 | i want to use ipv4 for network stuff (vnc and ircd) | 02:35 |
| bnex10 | vnc and ircd will work fine without ipv6 interfering | 02:35 |
| leo_rockw | pygmymath: yeah, i grew tired of compiling. so i'm staying with kubuntu for a while | 02:35 |
| leo_rockw | !envy | pygmymath | 02:35 |
| ubotu | pygmymath: 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 » | 02:35 |
| genefitz | pygmymath: Ubuntu is more user friendly, I believe, but I do think it is limited somewhat on the power-user end. | 02:36 |
| Scunizi | leo_rockw, oh.. yea.. for those that don't know any better and don't know how it will break their system in the future.. too bad he had an attitude | 02:36 |
| pygmymath | leo_rockw: gnome > you :P | 02:36 |
| leo_rockw | pygmymath: i just don't like gnome | 02:36 |
| bnex10 | kde > gnome | 02:36 |

| Kevin_b_er | there's still plenty of ways to destroy your installation power-user style | 02:37 |
| Scunizi | genefitz, since the underlying system is linux and the command line is still readily available.. how is it any less power user friendly? | 02:37 |
| pygmymath | leo_rockw: well ill take the g, youcan have the k, alright? :P | 02:37 |
| Scunizi | Housefly7k, 1gig is more than enough | 02:37 |
| Kevin_b_er | how much hard drive space does he have to spare? | 02:37 |
| pygmymath | genefitz: 4gb harddisk makes you conscious. | 02:37 |

| bnex10 | and no one is helping me | 02:37 |

| rhineheart_m | Is anybody here who uses winscp? I can't create directory in /var/www using winscp.. m using the username with sudo power.. any idea? | 02:38 |
| genefitz | Scunizi: on other systems, I am usually on root to do installations and such. Sudo is great, but it is much easier not having to add it into nearly every cli action. personal opinion mind you | 02:38 |
| Acomaco | rhineheart_m, try learning chmod, i found it easier :) | 02:38 |
| Ashfire908 | i suspect that the file is gone/blank and i want to fix it, cause, a blank menu isn't useful. | 02:38 |
| schweeb | rhineheart_m: just because you have sudo power doesn't mean you can do whatever you'd like | 02:38 |

| ronandi | is there a command to upload an entire directory with ftp | 02:38 |
| genefitz | pygmymath: I agree.. | 02:39 |
| schweeb | rhineheart_m: to be able to make that modification remotely, you'd either need to be logged in directly as root, or somehow wrap your create command w/ sudo | 02:39 |
| nickrud | genefitz then do sudo -i to get a root terminal when you need one | 02:39 |
| Scunizi | genefitz, for those comfortable with the command line and are not afraid of borking their system by accident there are ways of acheiving root without having to use sudo every time. | 02:39 |
| DBAonCall | cardinal sin to use root | 02:39 |
| rhineheart_m | Acomaco, schweeb can't I change the homedir of the user to /var/www? | 02:39 |

| genefitz | Scunizi: I have a couple different computers here, one for common use, and one just for screwing up. I have no problem totaling an OS and reloading it.. | 02:40 |

| awmcclain | Hrm... not for me. | 02:41 |
| Scunizi | genefitz, more power to ya.. that's a great way to figure things out | 02:41 |

| awmcclain | Dr_willis: And a bunch more like it | 02:45 |
| pygmymath | WorkingOnWise: alt+f3 i mean | 02:45 |

| cj_burchfield | lol. | 02:47 |

| genefitz | leo_rockw: really? | 02:50 |
| leo_rockw | Dimitree: unless you use kde i won't be able to help you | 02:50 |
| cj_burchfield | excuse me, pidgin. | 02:50 |
| Nasra | gaim or pidgin ???? | 02:50 |
| genefitz | Dr_willis: what card are you using? | 02:50 |
| cj_burchfield | it's pidgin now. | 02:50 |
| Housefly7k | Scunizi: yeah, he wasnt able to launch live cd so he went with the alternate cd... I think it may be because he used the 64 bit | 02:50 |
| Dimitree | leo_rockw, no using gnome :) | 02:50 |
| cj_burchfield | it was gaim years ago. | 02:50 |
| soldats | Nasra: install pidgin | 02:50 |
| Dr_willis | genefitz, 8800gtsxxx | 02:51 |
| Dimitree | how can i reconfigure my standart english keyboard ? | 02:51 |
| leo_rockw | genefitz: si... | 02:51 |
| Scunizi | Housefly7k, did you tell him to get the 32bit? | 02:51 |
| dimas_ | if i am streaming music with my original ip number with with a port number is that danger? | 02:51 |
| pygmymath | genefitz: never bought, came on the eee heh. but it isnice for a basic user.. but i've come from ubuntu and ubuntu is where im staying heh | 02:51 |
| cj_burchfield | beg pardon, dimas? | 02:51 |
| Dr_willis | genefitz, the restricted manager tool dident enable/download the package correctly. Once i manually apt-get'ed the glx-new package it took off. | 02:51 |
| Housefly7k | Scunizi: he just said he went into recovery mode when it did work and reinstalled grub on the windows partition...could this be causing the problems? | 02:51 |
| cj_burchfield | streaming music to where? | 02:51 |
| blankthemuffin | How does one install the kernel headers for ubuntu? | 02:51 |
| Nasra | cj_burchfield / soldats....no I don't have the gaim | 02:51 |
| genefitz | Dr_willis: I read something about the 8800 series having issues. The 8500 in this one, using the Ubuntu provided (restricted) drivers loaded up like a charm | 02:51 |
| cj_burchfield | blank, probably thru synaptic. | 02:52 |
| Dr_willis | genefitz, it was ent the card or the driver thats the issue.. it was the restricted-manager-whatever-its-called-now tool. | 02:52 |
| Cpudan80 | blankthemuffin: IIRC the package is kernel-source (you also need build-essential) | 02:52 |
| cj_burchfield | should be a package in there somehwere. | 02:52 |
| cj_burchfield | aha. | 02:52 |
| cj_burchfield | indeed. | 02:52 |
| Housefly7k | Scunizi: yeah he is currently in the process of reinstalling, so i told him to continue and if it didnt work to get the 32 bit | 02:52 |
| Scunizi | Housefly7k, if he has more than one hd then grub needs to be put on the boot drive (main) like the partition that windows is on | 02:52 |
| soldats | Nasra: look for pidgin in your menu and open it if you have it and select eh msn or yahoo prptocol | 02:52 |
| blankthemuffin | Thanks Cpudan80 | 02:52 |
| Cpudan80 | !kernel-source | blankthemuffin | 02:52 |
| ubotu | blankthemuffin: To install the Linux (kernel) headers, open a terminal and: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) To install headers for libraries, you need the accompanying -dev packages | 02:52 |
| Scunizi | Housefly7k, he'll want the 32 later.. 64 for a noob can be daunting | 02:52 |
| genefitz | Dr_willis, yeah, I suppose we all get a bad bit from time to time.. | 02:52 |
| Dr_willis | I still think we need a first-time-wizard to set up a lot of this common stuff. But then ya end up with a 20 min question/answer session on the first boot. | 02:52 |
| pygmymath | Nasra: or do alt+f2 and type pidgin, hit enter | 02:52 |
| Twan | I'm having trouble installing Ubuntu remotely using PXE. I am not sure if my DHCP Server values on Tftpd32 were correctly set. How can I know? | 02:52 |
| dimas_ | cj_burchfield if i publish my ip number with port number to the public to them liseten the music throw any music player is that danger? | 02:52 |
| Nasra | soldats ... I have pidgin | 02:53 |
| Housefly7k | Scunizi: no, one hard drive | 02:53 |
| cj_burchfield | if you're not behind a firewall, probably. | 02:53 |
| awmcclain | Dr_willis: Actually, maybe this will help. I have a custom debian package I built for ubuntu for lighttpd 1.5.0... can I somehow convert that into an apt package?? | 02:53 |
| cj_burchfield | my personal suggestion is not to do that. | 02:53 |
| Scunizi | Housefly7k, then he shouldn't have an issue getting grub to the right place.. if you have more than one drive it can get weird | 02:53 |
| dimas_ | what that could cause? | 02:53 |
| soldats | Nasra: open it and select the MSN or YAHOO protocol and use your user name to connect, it can support multiple protocols | 02:53 |
| cj_burchfield | you ask for more trouble than it's worth. | 02:53 |
| Nasra | soldats...I am doing right now... | 02:54 |
| Dr_willis | awmcclain, devbian uses deb packages - same as ubuntu. | 02:54 |
| genefitz | pygmymath: like I said, I tried Xandros, but was sorely unimpressed. Some people swear by it, but I guess to each their own.. | 02:54 |
| cj_burchfield | many things, one of which is the corruption of your OS. | 02:54 |
| cj_burchfield | you're in ubuntu doing this? | 02:54 |
| Dr_willis | awmcclain, thers no 'apt'pacakges. its the apt-get system that uses .deb packages. :) | 02:54 |
| georgy_28 | awmcclain, : sudo dpkg -i package.deb | 02:54 |
| Housefly7k | Scunizi: yeah, well hopefully this install will work, if not we'll try the 32 bit livecd, then the 32bit alternate :) But thanks for the help, and if I need more I'll be sure to come back | 02:54 |
| Dr_willis | genefitz, many alternative disrtos are one-hit wonders. they shine in one limited area/tool they hage that makes it handy.. but other then that tool.. they fall down. | 02:55 |
| dimas_ | cj_burchfield how you suggest me to stream to the public music as me as the server? is there any ways to script my ip? | 02:55 |
| awmcclain | georgy_28: It doesn't install dependencies, which is my problem. | 02:55 |
| cj_burchfield | use a service, such as shoutcast. | 02:55 |
| Scunizi | Housefly7k, all 1200+ of us are here just waiting to help :) | 02:55 |
| Dr_willis | awmcclain, dpkg will NOT install depenncies.. thats what 'apt-get' and the repos and their database is for. | 02:55 |
| cj_burchfield | google 'broadcast internet radio' | 02:55 |
| cj_burchfield | minus the quotes. | 02:55 |
| Dr_willis | awmcclain, if you start using dpkg whatever.deb then YOU are responsable for the dependenciues | 02:55 |
| dimas_ | free? | 02:55 |
| soldats | dimas_: yes | 02:56 |
| awmcclain | Dr_willis: Exactly. I don't want to. Can I use apt-get with a local deb file? | 02:56 |
| cj_burchfield | yes. | 02:56 |
| Nasra | soldats: it shuts itself up unexpectedly...don't now what happens ....it does not wanna run by itself | 02:56 |
| genefitz | Dr_willis, I agree. I tend to stick to the greats, Ubuntu quickly becoming one of them. Previously, I was always a Redhat/Fedora user. | 02:56 |
| cj_burchfield | as was I, genefitz. | 02:56 |
| soldats | Nasra: does it give an eoor | 02:56 |
| georgy_28 | awmcclain, : sudo gdbi-gtk package.deb | 02:56 |
| cj_burchfield | ah, the error of my ways. | 02:56 |
| genefitz | One thing I had to give them credit for was the RPM. I do like the system | 02:56 |
| Dr_willis | awmcclain, no you can not.. thats how the system works. You can track down all the .debs needed and isntall them all at one time with dpkg ifyou want. | 02:56 |
| Nasra | no | 02:56 |
| soldats | Nasra: any errors? | 02:56 |
| Nasra | soldats....no errors | 02:56 |
| andresj | I just sent a bug to Launchpad (well, actually it was a couple of hours ago). https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qt4-x11/+bug/208556 The solution is there, all that is missing is to create a patch (very straightforward) and create an update to the distribution. Anybody willing to help here? | 02:56 |
| Dr_willis | genefitz, i tested out mandriva, and sidux this month. both are gone now. :) | 02:56 |
| Nasra | just starting and then just stop and shuts up | 02:56 |
| dimas_ | cj_burchfield do you know VLC? | 02:57 |
| awmcclain | Dr_willis: Such a hassle. Couldn't I host my own repository? | 02:57 |
| cj_burchfield | the media player? | 02:57 |
| Nasra | is there any other way to start or run it? | 02:57 |
| dimas_ | yeah | 02:57 |
| andresj | sorry. use https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qt4-x11/+bug/208556 instead. | 02:57 |
| Dr_willis | awmcclain, tracking down a few deps is a hassle ? minimal hassle compared to making your own repo... | 02:57 |
| awmcclain | georgy_28: Does that require a display other than TTY? | 02:57 |
| cj_burchfield | i use it. | 02:57 |
| cj_burchfield | on windows. | 02:57 |
| genefitz | Dr_willis, Mandriva One is a great system, out of the box, but it runs slow, seemingly on everything it touches. | 02:57 |
| georgy_28 | awmcclain, : yes, X | 02:58 |
| dimas_ | there is something i dont understand but i have to come back to you in a minute | 02:58 |
| cj_burchfield | indeed. | 02:58 |
| awmcclain | Dr_willis: I'm automating all of this, so that's why I ask. | 02:58 |
| Dr_willis | genefitz, yep. It had some neat features. I wonder where that stand alone flash player came from they got. | 02:58 |
| cj_burchfield | Mandriva has been crap for a while. | 02:58 |
| cj_burchfield | ok. | 02:58 |
| === nith_ is now known as Nith | ||
| soldats | Nasra: thas weird i dont know what to say other than doing a ctrl+alt+F1 and seeing if errors are there. to switch back do ctrl+alt+F7 | 02:58 |
| Dr_willis | awmcclain, if the deps are in the repos you can apt-get them first, then dpkg the homemade package I guess.. I rarely mess with individual debs. | 02:59 |
| Dr_willis | awmcclain, what may be a bigger issue are the version/package changes on down the line. if your deb wants foobar1.2 and 1.3 comes out.. it may not like it. | 02:59 |
| genefitz | Dr_willis, I dunno. What I liked about it was the addition of the restricted drivers and codecs out of the box. And the L-additions, which is kind of a turn-on for Linspire (another Ubuntu derivitive) | 02:59 |
| Daisuke_Ido | g'morning Dr_willis | 02:59 |
| Dr_willis | genefitz, i wonder how they legally did that. :) | 02:59 |
| awmcclain | Dr_willis: What about hosting on launchpad? | 03:00 |
| cj_burchfield | what is this launchpad crap? | 03:00 |
| dimas_ | cj_burchfield what is RTP multicast? | 03:00 |
| Dr_willis | awmcclain, you could try it i guess. Ive never done it. | 03:00 |
| Twan | jesus christ this is insane | 03:00 |
| cj_burchfield | all i want to do is order a ubuntu CD. | 03:00 |
| Twan | the remote installation i finally got working | 03:00 |
| Twan | technology is unbelievable | 03:00 |
| Daisuke_Ido | since when is linspire an ubuntu derivative? | 03:00 |
| cj_burchfield | to the best of my knowledge, it's what you want to do. | 03:00 |
| Scunizi | !launchpad | cj_burchfield | 03:00 |
| genefitz | Dr_willis, because One is a paid distro, they pay for the license use for the restricted drivers and codecs | 03:00 |
| ubotu | cj_burchfield: Launchpad is a collection of development services for Open Source projects. It's Ubuntu's bug tracker, and much more; see https://launchpad.net/ | 03:00 |
| Dr_willis | Daisuke_Ido, i was wondering that also. | 03:00 |
| Dr_willis | genefitz, the copy i had was a free download.. :) but it may been some special variant. | 03:01 |
| leo_rockw | genefitz: i don't like they put the restricted drivers and so on. i'm always for a free distro. | 03:01 |
| cj_burchfield | i see. | 03:01 |
| cj_burchfield | all i want is a ubuntu CD mailed to me. | 03:01 |
| Daisuke_Ido | cj_burchfield, while sourceforge is like the open source graveyard, most things in launchpad are actively being worked on :) | 03:01 |
| dimas_ | in VLC when you streaming...what is RTP multicast? | 03:01 |
| Dr_willis | there comes a time when you want your system to just work. :) | 03:01 |
| cj_burchfield | i see. | 03:01 |
| cj_burchfield | interesting. | 03:01 |
| leo_rockw | Daisuke_Ido: what about google? | 03:01 |
| leo_rockw | Daisuke_Ido: they have a lot of projects too, and most are active | 03:02 |
| genefitz | leo_rockw, I would agree with you, I mean, I don't mind doing the extra terminal work, but one is looking to set it up on someone's computer that may be a little terminal-phobic, it is a great option, if some is willing to pay for it. | 03:02 |
| Daisuke_Ido | leo_rockw, definitely, i wasn't comparing them (or freshmeat, for that matter) | 03:02 |
| leo_rockw | Daisuke_Ido: oh, ok | 03:02 |
| leo_rockw | genefitz: definately, but i like how ubuntu lets you choose a more freedomish environment | 03:03 |
| cj_burchfield | there we go. | 03:03 |
| Nith | dimas_: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-time_Transport_Protocol | 03:03 |
| cj_burchfield | ah, i feel better already. | 03:03 |
| bnex10 | ? | 03:03 |
| genefitz | I love linux, and there have been some great strides in the system. Historically the biggest draw back has been user-friendliness. But it is getting better. | 03:03 |
| genefitz | leo_rockw, again, I agree. | 03:04 |
| smallhappy | hi | 03:04 |
| cj_burchfield | so, anybody, can i use my pearl as a modem in ubuntu? | 03:04 |
| leo_rockw | hello smallhappy | 03:04 |
| Nith | hi smallhappy | 03:04 |
| smallhappy | hello, leo and nith | 03:04 |
| Nasra | soldats....gotta working thanks.... | 03:04 |
| Nasra | MSN | 03:04 |
| Y1MMMY | could some one help with flash in konquror | 03:05 |
| cj_burchfield | indeed. | 03:05 |
| Dr_willis | genefitz, i find the term 'user-friendly' to be its own ball and chain. Its a meanignless term in so many ways. :) | 03:05 |
| mortal1 | does anyone here know how to start a graphical application over ssh and have it show on the remote system? | 03:05 |
| Scunizi | Y1MMMY, you might try in #kubuntu | 03:05 |
| cj_burchfield | and i like the fact that more and more businesses are integrating linux into their IT systems. | 03:05 |
| soldats | Nasra: awesome | 03:05 |
| bnex10 | mortal1: that's vnc | 03:05 |
| Dr_willis | mortal1, show on the remote? Hmm.. ssh in, use xhost + command, export the display, run the app. be sure to not ssh -X in. ? | 03:06 |
| ethan961 | !flash | Y1MMMY | 03:06 |
| ubotu | Y1MMMY: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash (for !Dapper and !Edgy, a recent version is available in !backports) - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 03:06 |
| cj_burchfield | mortal1, probably some fancy command starting with 'startx' | 03:06 |
| genefitz | Dr_willis, I do agree with you on that. But I do understand that there are some people who are not willing to learn anything about cli commands and such to use a computer. | 03:06 |
| bnex10 | nvm | 03:06 |
| Dr_willis | mortal1, thats about what i did ages ago with telnet. | 03:06 |
| leo_rockw | mortal1: i know how to start a graphical application over ssh in your local system. | 03:06 |
| Nasra | soldats: since I am new to Ubuntu today I managed to get 2 things working my printer...chat ...and Xchat working (3 things) great isn't it? | 03:06 |
| cj_burchfield | lol. | 03:06 |
| bnex10 | what about viewing an existing display? | 03:06 |
| genefitz | I loaded Ubuntu on my fathers computer when I visited him, but it scared him that I spent 2 hours after installing, in the terminal getting it ready for him with drivers, codecs and such.. | 03:07 |
| Dr_willis | genefitz, recall all these 'web-pc's' ages ago that never got popular? that was the ultimate in user-friendly ness.. - make them idiot-friendly through total removal of flexibilty. Is wwhere the 'UF' road often leads. | 03:07 |
| Daisuke_Ido | genefitz, i ran into the same issue with my inlaws | 03:07 |
| rooibos | I installed Sun JRE 5.0 and it has java 1.5. But when I tried to install and run Aptana, it says I have java 1.4, blackdown Java. Help? Thanks. | 03:07 |
| soldats | Nasra: good job! good luck. hope everything works out for you | 03:07 |
| Y1MMMY | ne1 | 03:07 |
| cj_burchfield | lol | 03:07 |
| Elv1313 | mortal1: use "DISPLAY=0" before the command | 03:07 |
| bnex10 | display :0 over ssh? | 03:07 |
| Daisuke_Ido | but now they can't imagine being without it, since i've shown them how to do what they need | 03:07 |
| Elv1313 | yes | 03:07 |
| cj_burchfield | yeah, often user-friendly means plan for the stupid idiot. | 03:07 |
| genefitz | Dr_willis, I do remember, and yes, there is a sacrifice | 03:08 |
| Dr_willis | if people had the same expectations of 'user friendlyness' in cars, as they do pc's - My car would auto-start as i walked towards it. and tune in my radio, and have me a cup of coffe hot, and in the cupholder, befor i sat down. :) | 03:08 |
| Elv1313 | it is a local variable, ssh use local variable from host | 03:08 |
| cj_burchfield | o0o, that'd be nice. | 03:08 |
| leo_rockw | Dr_willis: you should sell cars, i would buy one of those :-P | 03:08 |
| Nasra | > soldats....now my next thing is the dowloading and find the files ... and make work....like I used to do it in windows.....especially those with exe... | 03:08 |
| cj_burchfield | as would i. | 03:08 |
| Daisuke_Ido | Dr_willis, i pray for that day to arrive. | 03:08 |
| genefitz | Daisuke_Ido, but after it was installed, and the terminal work was done, he says he rarely uses his windows system anymore | 03:08 |
| Dr_willis | People seem to have these weird expections that a very complex tool - should be both 'idiot-proof' and 'able to do whatever quirky thing they want ' at a givem moment. :) | 03:08 |
| cj_burchfield | lol. | 03:08 |
| cj_burchfield | spoken like a true programmer. | 03:09 |
| leo_rockw | Nasra: no need for that | 03:09 |
| bnex10 | i would like to be able to view an existing display (:0) over ssh | 03:09 |
| leo_rockw | Nasra: you have a huge list of apps in synaptic | 03:09 |
| Nasra | soldats...running Ubuntu like a week ago | 03:09 |
| leo_rockw | Nasra: no more hunting for apps | 03:09 |
| Dr_willis | That 'asus EEE desktop' pc - will be womthing to keep an eye on for the near future! | 03:09 |
| Nasra | yes sir that is correct | 03:09 |
| cj_burchfield | you want to see a remote computer's display on your display? | 03:09 |
| john_doe | how do I make my system suspend from comand line (bash)? | 03:09 |
| pygmymath | Dr_willis: I may have had to build the car myself, but this baby has coffee in the holder when i boot it :) | 03:09 |
| soldats | john_doe: xset dpms suspend | 03:09 |
| pygmymath | Dr_willis: I'm typing to you from one running ubuntu now :) | 03:10 |
| Dr_willis | pygmymath, there ya go.. | 03:10 |
| genefitz | Dr_willis, yes, and no, it really has a lot to do with the person. I mean, if someone is wanting to do extraordinary things, yes, that is a little out of reach, but remember the "common" user is kind of an idiot.. | 03:10 |
| soldats | john_doe: its a monitor setting | 03:10 |
| cj_burchfield | true. | 03:10 |
| bnex10 | [23:09] <cj_burchfield> you want to see a remote computer's display on your display? <--- yes | 03:10 |
| cj_burchfield | VNC, my friend. | 03:10 |
| Nasra | leo_rockw: Synaptic package manager? | 03:10 |
| cj_burchfield | or as windows calls it, remote desktop. | 03:10 |
| kindofabuzz | memphis whoopin' some @$%!! | 03:10 |
| genefitz | Dr_willis, what I mean is that many just want to load it and have it ready to run out of the box, and I can respect that. | 03:10 |
| leo_rockw | Nasra: yes | 03:10 |
| bnex10 | i know vnc | 03:10 |
| jars | anyone interested in creating a custum Ubuntu LiveCD for 50USD? | 03:10 |
| nickrud | genefitz clueless <> idiot | 03:11 |
| Dr_willis | genefitz, its amazing how these 'total computer novices' i often teach decide that they NEED their pc to do things in very odd ways.. because they cant learn how to manage the machine. the '10000 icons on the desktop' of many windows users is a case in point. :) | 03:11 |
| leo_rockw | Nasra: i'm not using ubuntu with gnome, but i believe that's the name | 03:11 |
| Nasra | leo_rockw: everything is in there all applecations | 03:11 |
| pygmymath | The common user doesnt exsist. I've seen someone who's clueless with xp and lived in ubuntu for a month | 03:11 |
| john_doe | soldats: thanks! | 03:11 |
| cj_burchfield | LOL! | 03:11 |
| Nasra | yes sir it's | 03:11 |
| cj_burchfield | that cracks me up. | 03:11 |
| leo_rockw | Nasra: any app you feel like getting is in that list | 03:11 |
| bnex10 | but since THE STUPID IPv6 SCREWING MY THING it dont work | 03:11 |
| soldats | john_doe: np | 03:11 |
| Dr_willis | genefitz, that eee desktop - will be such a solution. :) when you limit the hardware.. you gain in manyw ays. | 03:11 |
| leo_rockw | Nasra: so searching for apps online is pointless | 03:11 |
| cj_burchfield | eh? | 03:11 |
| Daisuke_Ido | bnex10, what' | 03:11 |
| cj_burchfield | IPv6? | 03:11 |
| Nasra | leo_rockw: and is safe and supported? | 03:11 |
| Daisuke_Ido | err... what's up with the what now? | 03:11 |
| cj_burchfield | screwing your thing? | 03:11 |
| Dr_willis | genefitz, given the varity in PC hardware. im suprised any OS works. :) | 03:11 |
| cj_burchfield | computer sex...bad. | 03:11 |
| leo_rockw | Nasra: yup | 03:11 |

| jars | hello all. I'm new to the chat room, looking for some help with a liveCD | 03:12 |
| genefitz | Dr_willis, I do agree with you. Me I have 3 icons, and all three are there because the system put them there. My storage drive, and my networked media sources. Other than that, I am all about the menu. | 03:12 |
| leo_rockw | Dr_willis: given the variaty of hardware... i'm surprised debian exists | 03:12 |

| genefitz | Dr_willis, again, I agree. It amazes me | 03:13 |
| Dr_willis | leo_rockw, given the debian devs attitudes... oh wait.. i WONT go there..... :) | 03:13 |

| rhineheart_m | Is debian complicated than ubuntu? | 03:13 |
| jars | ces-- I need to create a custom liveCD with some security options, for use on library computers | 03:13 |

| leo_rockw | rhineheart_m: debian developers are stereotyped as being... not too friendly | 03:13 |
| bnex10 | both are installed | 03:13 |
| Dr_willis | rhineheart_m, its not as polished in ways.. but if youlearn the linux fundamentals. debian wont be too hard. | 03:13 |
| genefitz | rhineheart_m, yes and no. | 03:13 |
| Daisuke_Ido | rhineheart_m, same concept as far as package management, but it's not nearly as polished | 03:13 |

| bnex10 | but it's interfering | 03:14 |
| bnex10 | how | 03:14 |

| pygmymath | genefitz: due to 7" screen i dont have a window list - i use alt+tab. I use the kboard more than the touchpad fail thing so i tend to run stuff with alt+f2 or in a terminal (which is shortcutted) | 03:14 |
| antbee | rooibos: type this in a terminal update-alternatives --config java | 03:14 |
| bnex10 | ok? | 03:14 |

| Nith | Nasra: you're interested in wine. I dont have any experience w/ it though | 03:15 |
| rhineheart_m | well, quick question.. which is better in terms of performance.. like speed.. debian or ubuntu? | 03:15 |
| soldats | john_doe: try 'xset dpme force standby' it will only standby the monitor, is the normal standby not working | 03:15 |
| orran | Hey is three any good audio programs | 03:15 |
| Dr_willis | !ipv6 | 03:15 |
| bnex10 | probably in root stuff. | 03:15 |

| genefitz | pygmymath: 7" screen? are you using a pocket PC or tablet? | 03:15 |
| soldats | john_doe: try 'xset dpms force standby' it will only standby the monitor, is the normal standby not working sorry whoops | 03:15 |
| cj_burchfield | check that link. | 03:15 |

| bnex10 | pocket PC | 03:15 |
| bnex10 | :D | 03:16 |
| Nith | !wine | Nasra | 03:16 |
| ubotu | Nasra: 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. | 03:16 |
| cj_burchfield | read the link ubotu sent. | 03:16 |

| jars | ces- try to send me one if you did not... | 03:16 |
| Kevin_b_er | You could try running the gnome script which executes the suspend off of the GUI | 03:16 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Nasra, exe is a windows extension.. | 03:16 |
| Dr_willis | Nasra, wine basic ussage, wine path/to/whatever.exe - often a .exe is set to auto launch wine when clicked on. but that is not reliable. | 03:16 |
| * Nith smiles as its the first time he's ever used that | 03:16 | |

| Housefly7k | and then the cursor is just blinking | 03:16 |
| Nith | Nasra: its definately wine, but I've never used it. Generally you can find a linux equivalent | 03:16 |
| Scunizi | Housefly7k, is he dual booting? | 03:17 |
| PMantis | Is there a way to tell apt-get (or aptitude) to upgrade all except the kernels? Or.. upgrade only those packages matching a pattern? | 03:17 |
| Nasra | Jack_Sparrow....yes sir....that is what I used to do it with windows....now I know is different but I don't know how | 03:17 |
| pygmymath | genefitz: eeepc heh | 03:17 |
| bnex10 | aww i dont wanna reboot | 03:17 |
| Kevin_b_er | "/usr/bin/gnome-power-cmd.sh suspend" might do it. Can't test it right now. | 03:17 |

| bnex10 | :( | 03:17 |
| rom | hi | 03:17 |
| rhineheart_m | well, can IPv6 be a reason why I have intermittent connection in PPPoE environment? | 03:17 |

| Daisuke_Ido | Nasra, linux is different, you don't go scouring the net for installers, it's all in one handy dandy place :D | 03:18 |
| genefitz | Oh yeah, that's right.. By the way, how is that? You know, I put in for the buy one give one for olpc, I still haven't gotten my laptop yet. | 03:18 |

| pygmymath | Daisuke_Ido: handhy dandy it is :P | 03:18 |
| cj_burchfield | bnex: you can install IPv6 on your windows machine. Check this link: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/network/ipv6/ipv6faq.mspx | 03:18 |
| Nasra | Okay I am learning with you guys..... | 03:18 |
| soldats | john_doe: ahh Kevin_b_er suggestion may be it then | 03:18 |
| genefitz | not that I will probably ever use it for anything other than a toy... | 03:18 |
| leo_rockw | Nasra: let's say you want to install another media player. just look for it in synaptic and install it and it will be in your menu after it's done installing | 03:18 |
| Scunizi | Housefly7k, weird that it sticks there.. might be a bad burn.. he should burn it at the SLOWEST possible speed.. some will say it doesn't matter but I find it does as other have as well. | 03:18 |

| leo_rockw | Twan: that's a yes | 03:20 |
| bnex10 | nvm | 03:20 |
| Dr_willis | pygmymath, you refering to a 'circular menu' around the cursor.. seen that done with a window manager or 2, seen it done in games.. they tend to really suck. :) | 03:20 |
| Nasra | leo_rockw: that is correct that is what I want.... | 03:21 |
| pygmymath | Dr_willis: not nessecarily circular.. but why the suck? | 03:21 |

| leo_rockw | Nasra: you want to run exes? why? | 03:21 |
| Nasra | leo_rockw: open it with wine and run it | 03:21 |
| fk7_se | whats a good game for ubuntu | 03:21 |
| leo_rockw | Nasra: if you really need an exe, then yes | 03:21 |
| Daisuke_Ido | Nasra, what kind of software are you talking about running here? | 03:21 |
| Dr_willis | Daisuke_Ido, never noticed that one. :) i only play the older scummvm games with the menus at the bottom. | 03:21 |
| genefitz | pygmymath, That is cool though, I may have to look at one of them.. I bet I can find an eeepc on e-bay | 03:21 |
| leo_rockw | fk7_se: frets on fire, tremulous | 03:21 |
| Nasra | let me think so I can give you better example...okay? | 03:22 |
| Daisuke_Ido | Dr_willis, i love you. purely platonic, but you know scummvm, and that's awesome | 03:22 |
| Dr_willis | pygmymath, go play some of the games that use them.. the NeverWintersNights game is one that does it.. and egads.. its annoying. | 03:22 |

| newuser777 | Next question. I have a few CDs that I burned and have crc errors which make it next to impossible to try to access their contents. Is there a package that will read a flawed disc and do it's best to recover whatever it can and copy it to my hard disc to get a good copy of the undamaged files? | 03:33 |

| keithclark | I am having a problem sharing files between two computers via ssh. I can view the directories and even play media files on the remote computer, but when I try to save files to it, a dialog window comes up and shows the progress, which never seems to move. I also lose access to that remote computer until I cancel the process and logout and back in again. Any ideas what is going wrong here? | 03:43 |
| _2 | http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/?show=d3579032b <-- does that mean that the repo no longer contains those versions ? | 03:43 |
| troxor | gradin: there's another one, something like ~/.local/share/Trash, but that's probably not right | 03:44 |
| _2 | or is the security repo down ? | 03:44 |
| chri1 | dr. willis? | 03:44 |

| Anaxite | To try to fix it, I followed the guide at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=571188 for manual network configuration, and also assigned the computer a static IP address. | 03:44 |

| genefitz | keithclark, interesting issue.. I am looking up anything I can find for ssh sharing.. | 03:47 |
| prettyricky | let me try enabling compiz | 03:47 |
| keithclark | genefitz, this is between on machine that is running 7.10 and one is running 8.04 | 03:48 |
| keithclark | genefitz, if that is relevant. | 03:48 |
| _2 | troxor so not using it is a good thing then ? | 03:48 |
| genefitz | prettyricky, some systems have issues with the effects, my old compuer had that happen every time I enabled desktop effects | 03:48 |
| troxor | _2: it doesn't hurt anything, afaict | 03:48 |
| _2 | just eats ram albeit not much. | 03:49 |

| amenado | Anaxite-> you can ping 192.168.0.1 at all? | 03:56 |
| Scunizi | prettyricky, have you tried using alt | 03:56 |
| rava | chating | 03:57 |
| Anaxite | amenado: Destination Host Unreachable | 03:57 |
| prettyricky | yeah that works | 03:57 |
| prettyricky | but that would get annoying after a while | 03:57 |
| keithclark | genefitz, maybe I should ask in ubuntu+1? | 03:57 |
| cdubya | any good tutorials on how to create directories with a shell script using user input prompts, etc......? | 03:57 |
| amenado | Anaxite-> really?.. can you ping localhost? ping 127.0.0.1 ? | 03:57 |
| Scunizi | prettyricky, do you have window decorations? as in the menu's at the top of a window? | 03:57 |
| prettyricky | ? | 03:57 |
| Anaxite | amenado: Just tried that and yep - pinging localhost works fine. | 03:58 |
| prettyricky | sorry not sure what you mean | 03:58 |
| genefitz | keithclark, that may be a good idea. I am running hardy too, but I am using Samba. | 03:58 |
| Scunizi | prettyricky, at the top of each window there are typically a list of menu items like File/Edit etc.. are those visable or missing? | 03:58 |
| amenado | Anaxite i'd reset and see if you can still ping localhost... to reset /etc/init.d/networking restart | 03:59 |
| prettyricky | oh they are there | 03:59 |
| Alucard_Hellsing | i need some help every time i tri to change my screensaver settings. it logs me out of my user | 03:59 |
| Scunizi | prettyricky, so what you're saying is you can't just use the mouse and click and drag a window? | 03:59 |
| prettyricky | I can close the window by going to file and exit, but I can seem to drag the window. There is not close button either | 03:59 |
| realcoolguy | looking for help on how to find out whether or not my pc even sees a PCI wireless card I put in. I'm not sure where to start looking, because it seems to do nothing... is there a place to see if my pci card is even detected? | 03:59 |
| prettyricky | thats correct | 04:00 |
| Anaxite | amenado: Ok, ran that command. I can still ping localhost afterwards, and 192.168.0.1 is still unreachable | 04:00 |
| prettyricky | the button on the top right hand corner is not there to close the window either | 04:00 |
| Scunizi | prettyricky, ah. sounds like you're missing the window decorations.. you're running compiz right? | 04:00 |
| din | realcoolguy: sudo lspci | 04:00 |
| kindofabuzz | how come i can't use the servers host name to login through vnc or ssh? | 04:00 |
| prettyricky | correct | 04:00 |
| Scunizi | prettyricky, have you installed CCSM (compiz configuration settings manager)? | 04:00 |
| prettyricky | yes I have it installed | 04:01 |
| amenado | Anaxite and you still get same info as earlier when you do ifconfig; iwconfig; route -n ? | 04:01 |
| nickrud | kindofabuzz you need some kind of name resolution to be able to do that | 04:01 |
| Scunizi | prettyricky, if you can open it look in there for the option called Window Decorations and make sure that it has a check mark next to it. | 04:01 |
| prettyricky | ok | 04:01 |
| realcoolguy | din: thanks, i see it there... just need to go figure out howto make ubuntu talk to it | 04:02 |
| kindofabuzz | nickrud: what do i need/ | 04:02 |
| Anaxite | amenado: Yes, although 'route -n' added a new line with a default of 169.254.0.0. So three lines now. | 04:02 |
| din | realcoolguy: what chipset is it? | 04:02 |
| nickrud | kindofabuzz is this your local network, and is the server a static address? | 04:02 |
| kindofabuzz | nickrud: yup | 04:02 |
| leo_rockw | kindofabuzz: i believe you need to add it to /etc/hosts i could be wrong, tho | 04:02 |
| Twan | I finished installing the core to Ubuntu and now it's trying to install Ubuntu Desktop but it just is stuck at 6% saying 'Please wait...' | 04:02 |
| amenado | Anaxite thats okay , that 169.x.x.x is irrelevant.. how about your /etc/hosts how does that look like? | 04:02 |
| awmcclain | Sigh. I really don't understand this. apt-get isn't installing dependencies for me. libterm-readline-perl-perl: Depends: libterm-readkey-perl but it is not going to be installed | 04:02 |
| Twan | Anything I can do? | 04:02 |
| kindofabuzz | it is in /etc/hosts | 04:02 |
| din | realcoolguy: Atheros? broadcom? | 04:03 |
| realcoolguy | din: i think it's marvel technology or something strange... i think the brand was belkin | 04:03 |
| nickrud | kindofabuzz add a line like: 192.168.1.100 servername to /etc/hosts on the machine you are ssh'ing from. This will work as long as the address doesn't change, obviously | 04:03 |
| Anaxite | amenado: okay... 'cat /etc/hosts' yields two lines for the IPV4 section. "127.0.0.1 localhost" and "127.0.1.1 ubuntu" | 04:03 |
| kindofabuzz | ok add it to the client? | 04:03 |
| amenado | Anaxite-> and this still exist? 0.0.0.0 192.168.0.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth1 | 04:04 |
| din | realcoolguy: i'd search the forums for it. you may possibly have to use ndiswrapper to get it working. | 04:04 |
| prettyricky | is that option under window management cause I cant seem to find it | 04:04 |
| realcoolguy | din: i really wish it was atheros... =( I'm a better linux user than i seem to let on... just brain froze and forgot lspci >< i can dig and find out how to make it work now though. Thanks again din | 04:04 |
| Anaxite | Yes, that still exists, amenado | 04:04 |
| nickrud | kindofabuzz the file /etc/hosts on the machine you are running ssh on, if that's what you mean by client | 04:04 |
| Scunizi | prettyricky, hang on | 04:04 |
| din | realcoolguy: np | 04:04 |
| blbrown | this is a strange question; what are the modern ways to control a simple servo motor; printer cable and what about on the software end? | 04:04 |
| amenado | Anaxite umm that dont look right 127.0.1.1 ubuntu you can comment that with # | 04:04 |
| Scunizi | prettyricky, it's under Effects | 04:04 |
| prettyricky | ok | 04:05 |
| Scunizi | prettyricky, now go to system/preferances/Appearance/Visual Effects and change the setting to "None".. wait for the screen to blink once and change it back to normal. Does that make a difference? | 04:05 |
| kindofabuzz | nickrud: ok, did that, any service i need to restart? | 04:05 |
| nickrud | kindofabuzz nope | 04:05 |
| rhineheart_m | hello.. is disabling IPV6 cannot disrupt web server operation? I only found out that my router cannot support IPv6.. and I guess it might be the reason of intermittent connection in my LAN | 04:05 |

| ubotu | rhineheart_m: To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4 | 04:05 |
| nickrud | kindofabuzz that's how it was done before dns, all the machines in the world had an /etc/hosts file pointing at all the other machines in the world ;) | 04:06 |
| kindofabuzz | woot! tigers in da elite 8! sorry ot =) | 04:06 |
| prettyricky | that was the issue. Thank you so very much! | 04:06 |
| kindofabuzz | nickrud: wow i bet those were some big files! | 04:06 |
| nickrud | kindofabuzz not really. Not many machines on the net then | 04:07 |
| Scunizi | prettyricky, no problem.. compiz is cool but has it's issues.. now you know something new to pass on to someone else :) | 04:07 |
| genefitz | prettyricky, sorry, I completely brain fried on that one. | 04:07 |
| rhineheart_m | I am using ubuntu server.. and I can't afford to reboot the web server.. | 04:07 |
| kindofabuzz | nickrud: true | 04:07 |
| genefitz | I guess when all else fails, check the obvious ;-) | 04:07 |
| prettyricky | no prob, thanks again for all the help! | 04:07 |
| rhineheart_m | Scunizi, I am using ubuntu server and I can't afford to restart the web server.. I have uptime to maintain | 04:08 |
| kindofabuzz | rhineheart_m: why is uptime so important? | 04:08 |
| kindofabuzz | sometimes you gotta do what ya gotta do | 04:08 |
| Scunizi | rhineheart_m, there may be a way to just restart that service .. take 10 secs or so. if someone can enlighten us on how to. | 04:09 |
| din | which service? | 04:09 |
| kindofabuzz | what's the service? | 04:09 |
| rhineheart_m | Scunizi, how about restarting the eth0? | 04:09 |
| Scunizi | din, rhineheart_m needs to blacklist ipv6 and keep the uptime up. | 04:09 |
| kindofabuzz | do /etc/init.d/<whatever> restart | 04:09 |
| emja | anyone know where irexec starts from? I can't find it in /etc/ or in ~ | 04:09 |
| nickrud | sudo modprobe -r ipv6 ? | 04:09 |
| din | rmmod ipv6 | 04:10 |
| din | heh | 04:10 |
| CorbinFox | anyone know what causes a log in Xorg.0.log like "(WW) NVIDIA(0): WAIT (0, 6, 0x8000, 0x00001758, 0x00001758)"? it goes along with a feezing of the entire display for a half second to a second. | 04:10 |
| din | then add ipv6 to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | 04:10 |
| rhineheart_m | mmmm.. modprobe -r ipv6 <<< what does it do? | 04:10 |
| Scunizi | din, is that realtime? or does rhineheart_m need to restart eth0 | 04:10 |
| Starnestommy | rhineheart_m: it removes the kernel modules for ipv6 support | 04:10 |
| din | that's realtime. it removes ipv6 from the running kernel | 04:10 |
| nickrud | rhineheart_m it removes the ipv6 support from the kernel | 04:10 |
| * leo_rockw is going to play some tremulous. Have a good night, #ubuntu | 04:11 | |
| rhineheart_m | mmmm... okay.. any apps or mods dependent to IPV6? | 04:11 |
| nickrud | rhineheart_m you can see all the modules in the kernel (providing much of it functionality) with lsmod | 04:11 |
| nickrud | rhineheart_m no modules, no | 04:11 |
| din | rhineheart_m: i wouldn't think so. | 04:11 |
| din | rhineheart_m: make sure to add ipv6 to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist so it doesn't load up on the next boot. | 04:12 |
| * nickrud did an lsmod grep ipv6 first ;) | 04:12 | |
| rhineheart_m | well, I tried dig AAAA www.kame.net and I got response.. | 04:12 |
| rhineheart_m | does it mean I have working IPV6? | 04:12 |
| ste-foy | thank you for your help din | 04:12 |
| nickrud | rhineheart_m it's better to create a new file in the modprobe.d , the blacklist file is provided by ubuntu and the whole purpose of *.d directories is avoiding altering files provided by packages | 04:12 |
| din | rhineheart_m: what was the answer from the dig? | 04:13 |
| rhineheart_m | but the router's support group told me that their router cannot support IPV6 only IPV4 | 04:13 |
| din | ste-foy: anytime. | 04:13 |

| TheArthur | thanks :)( | 04:14 |
| rhineheart_m | din, this is it: http://pastebin.com/d67ae237b | 04:15 |
| din | rhineheart_m: if your machine's ip address is in the format of x.x.x.x then you won't have any impact by removing ipv6. | 04:15 |
| rhineheart_m | din, I have this format 192.168.1.* | 04:15 |
| nickrud | kindofabuzz don't need to, just have the port forwarding set up | 04:15 |

| mc-george | what? | 04:19 |
| mc-george | not sure what you guys mean | 04:20 |
| nickrud | mc-george gkrellm doesn't have a menu item (apparently) so press alt-f2 , that will open a run dialog. Type gkrellm there | 04:20 |

| trakinas | hi | 04:25 |
| Scunizi | !hi | 04:26 |
| ubotu | Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 04:26 |
| trakinas | i need some help understanding alsamixer | 04:26 |
| Scunizi | trakinas, is it not working? or are you trying to do something specific withit. | 04:26 |
| trakinas | Scunizi: something specific. for example, what IEC958 means | 04:27 |
| big-boss | My daily report: I made counter-strike source work properly on Ubuntu, directly from my NTFS partition. And am now listening to Risk Asltley because I just got rickrolled. :) | 04:27 |
| Noname | anybody know a irc program i can use a proxy with | 04:27 |
| schweeb | Noname: you should be able to, using a socks proxy... not sure about http proxies | 04:27 |
| schweeb | Noname: http, you'll probably need a tunneling app | 04:27 |
| Noname | how would i go about if you don't mind i can't find any options in xchat for it | 04:27 |
| schweeb | what kind of proxies? | 04:28 |
| blah569 | Is there much of a speed difference of running Ubuntu if you install it from Wubi rather then installing it from the disk? | 04:28 |
| schweeb | blah569: probably slight - as it's block filesystem on top of a filesystem | 04:28 |
| schweeb | blah569: not significant | 04:28 |
| Noname | got banned from irc channel just need to get back in | 04:28 |
| Scunizi | trakinas, Parameters are sampling rate which is 44.1 kHz on home stereos, and 48 kHz on home theaters, a sample width measured in bits, such as 8, 16, 24 or 32, a sample encoding, a number of channels, 1 for mono, 2 for stereo, or 6 for ac-3/IEC958, | 04:28 |
| schweeb | why wouldy ou need back in to something you're banned from? | 04:29 |
| blah569 | If I install Ubuntu from a CD, is it easy to remove it without wiping Windows? | 04:29 |
| blah569 | wipeing * | 04:29 |
| blah569 | gah, I do not know the correct spelling. | 04:29 |
| Noname | just the way i am don't like getting banned for opinions | 04:29 |
| trakinas | Scunizi: Im trying to record microphone and sounds that pass through the board too. once i was able to do so, but cant remember now | 04:29 |
| Scunizi | blah569, depends on the install.. if you're using the latest beta of Hardy 8.04 then you might be talking about wubi. In that case yes it's easy.. from what I've heard.. | 04:30 |
| blah569 | I'm just afraid that my Wubi installation will go corrupt. | 04:30 |
| Noname | didn't like my pro piracy stance even though i was not giving links | 04:30 |
| kindofabuzz | i just vnc'd to the computer i'm on to test it. i get the repeat effect like when you video tape into a mirror | 04:30 |
| trakinas | and i get confused with the IEC thing... dont know what i have to mute, mark on playback, mark on capture... | 04:30 |
| Scunizi | trakinas, are you using hardy or gutsy? | 04:30 |
| blah569 | I have a restore CD, but I am afraid that it might not even boot up if Wubi does filesystem damage. | 04:30 |
| trakinas | Scunizi: gutsy | 04:30 |
| Scunizi | trakinas, this might be all taken care of in hardy since they are using pulseaudio.. not sure how to do it in alsa.. never tried. | 04:31 |
| trakinas | Scunizi: thanks, anyway! thought was only a matter of alsa switchs | 04:31 |
| blah569 | Does anyone believe that the restore CD would still boot up? | 04:31 |
| Scunizi | trakinas, might be.. keep playing around. | 04:32 |
| Scunizi | blah569, restore CD? | 04:32 |
| Scunizi | blah569, you talking about a windows restore cd? | 04:32 |
| blah569 | A CD that is in the box of the same laptop that will whipe the hard drive, and reinstall Windows. Almost like a Windows installation CD. | 04:33 |
| blah569 | It will also destroy all paritions. | 04:33 |
| blah569 | partitions * | 04:33 |
| Scunizi | blah569, ah I just read your previous post.. sorry.. wubi creates it's own little files for running ubuntu.. shouldn't be an issue. If you have to use the restore cd it will wipe everything off the drive and put windows back like new.. | 04:34 |
| Scunizi | blah569, you do have a dual boot option without using wubi | 04:34 |
| blah569 | I have read that Wubi can do major filesystem damage, and not allow booting of Ubuntu or Windows. | 04:34 |

| === The_Doctor is now known as Ttech | ||

| evand | blah569: where did you read that Wubi can do major filesystem damage? | 04:36 |
| blah569 | On ubuntuforums.org | 04:36 |
| Scunizi | blah569, if you have more than one drive and the second has nothing important on it or it's just laying around. Yank the windows drive and put the other in for a full clean install of ubuntu.. If you like it put the windows drive back in along with it and come back to discover how to install Grub | 04:37 |
| === gothmog__ is now known as gothmog0a | ||

| evand | blah569: can you point me at a specific thread that says this? | 04:39 |
| blah569 | The damage was due to "hard rebooting." | 04:39 |
| blah569 | The file system damage. | 04:39 |
| evand | blah569: that will happen in windows as well. NTFS handles such situations poorly. | 04:40 |
| schweeb | evand: I suspect it's a slightly valid concern, if your Windows install is on NTFS - you could possibly leave the NTFS volume in an unclean volume | 04:40 |
| schweeb | er | 04:41 |
| schweeb | unclean state | 04:41 |
| niuq | hi | 04:41 |
| evand | schweeb: correct, though I don't believe that hard resetting Wubi does more damage than hard resetting Windows. I'm open to evidence to the countrary, howevre. | 04:41 |
| evand | however* | 04:41 |
| blah569 | That would be terrible if I accidentally turned off this computer accidentally with a "hard boot," and then everything would be mest up. | 04:41 |
| niuq | i have a problem with the title bar of the windows, it just disappear for no reason... | 04:41 |
| blah569 | Ooops, Improper sentence. | 04:41 |
| schweeb | and NTFS is usually pretty resilient actually, if you're using the windows drivers in windows | 04:41 |
| Scunizi | blah569, make a small 10 gig partition on your drive and do a dual boot situation.. that way one side won't mess with the other .. much | 04:42 |
| ka2 | schweeb: really? i had problems with that some time ago | 04:42 |

| soldats | Piffer: try "man xorg" in terminal and it may give a solution | 04:56 |
| blah569 | When installing on an emulator, how exactly does that work? Is the OS stored on like a virtual disk? | 04:57 |
| sixforty | Armored Saint, know if there's vmware player packaged to run under Ubuntu? | 04:57 |
| schweeb | there should be a vmware ubuntu appliance somewhere | 04:57 |
| soldats | levander: when you click the icon does it give you updates | 04:57 |
| izinucs | trakinas, oh.. now it makes sense. skype is natoriously difficult to record .. there are ad-on for it to allow that but I think they only work in windows.. pulseaudio might take care of it.. or you might consider giving Gizmo a shot.. that has a record feature built in but the audio quality isn't always up to par. | 04:58 |
| schweeb | sixforty: you mean the vmware player binaries for ubuntu? | 04:58 |
| levander | blah569: virtualbox creates a .vdi file. The .vdi file looks like a hard disk to the guest OS. Windows OS files and all the applications and data files all live in the .vdi file. But, the Windows guest opens up the .vdi file and it looks like a hard disk to Windows. | 04:58 |

| blah569 | ok | 04:58 |
| sixforty | I'm running Ubuntu and need a vm. | 04:58 |
| soldats | blah569: yes i belioeve its on a virtual disk | 04:58 |
| levander | soldats: Yeah, when I click the icon, the dialog pops up and tells me what updates are available. | 04:58 |
| blah569 | What about vmware player, I am downloading it right now. | 04:58 |
| big-boss_ | guys, I dual boot my pc, I have a little problem. On windows, utorrent has the little green arrow that indicates port forwarding is good, on linux, the thing is red, and no port forwarding. I have the same IP and the same ports on both machines and ports are open in my router config. Any ideas? | 04:58 |
| === Lav is now known as Lavvie | ||
| levander | blah569: Never tried VMWare personally. | 04:59 |
| ArmoredSaint | the best way to go is vmware player and get the qemu utility to create the image file... | 04:59 |
| levander | blah569: I'd bet it's something similar though. | 04:59 |
| === Cwek_Janda is now known as GYTA_CHANIZ | ||
| blah569 | I've used vbox before, but vbox lags on Vista. Is the newer version better? | 04:59 |
| trakinas | izinucs: i remember a link with this tool for linux too. but is too late for me to check them on the internet. i whished i could use gizmo, but the other person does not has it. :/ | 04:59 |
| schweeb | blah569: http://www.vmware.com/appliances/ | 04:59 |
| blah569 | ok | 05:00 |
| soldats | big-boss_: you ma need to tell the ubuntu firewall to forward the ports, id suggest iptables for it ir the front end for it | 05:00 |
| trakinas | will give pulseaudio a try later. also, my soundcard sucks in anyways.. too much static. TOO MUCH. | 05:00 |
| izinucs | levander, ArmoredSaint blah569 you can also get vmware server if you're running winxp pro or vista and install from your downloaded cd.. | 05:00 |
| levander | soldats: I just looked, it does say "Important security updates" at the top of the list of updates. So, I imagine they are secuirty updates? | 05:00 |
| soldats | levander: yes id think so | 05:00 |
| big-boss_ | thanks soldats i'll try it now | 05:00 |
| izinucs | trakinas, free download.. if the other is on linux you might also try ekiga | 05:00 |
| schweeb | blah569: http://www.vmware.com/appliances/directory/1066 | 05:01 |
| soldats | !firestarter > big-boss_ | 05:01 |
| ArmoredSaint | that true izi..thanks..forgot about that. | 05:01 |
| izinucs | trakinas, gizmo is also free | 05:01 |
| sixforty | Anyone here running vmware on an Ubuntu system? | 05:01 |
| izinucs | sixforty, I am | 05:01 |
| levander | soldats: In "Software Sources" I clicked on "Install security updates without confirmation." Why is that not auto-installing all these security updates? | 05:01 |
| ArmoredSaint | I do... | 05:01 |
| blah569 | thanks | 05:01 |
| schweeb | yea, I'd only recommend VMWare server for instances where there aren't already packaged appliances | 05:01 |
| ArmoredSaint | I've got an XP vm running on Ubuntu using vmware. | 05:01 |
| trakinas | izinucs: yep! i used gizmo for sometime. i will try to convince the other person to install gizmo. ekiga would work like a charm... =( | 05:01 |
| schweeb | it's a bit tougher to install | 05:01 |
| blah569 | Will that lag on Vista with like 1024 MB of RAM? I plan on buying 4 GB soon, but in the mean time, would that lag? | 05:02 |
| izinucs | sixforty, I have win2kpro in a vm on ubuntu | 05:02 |
| sixforty | vmware pre-packaged or from source? | 05:02 |
| soldats | levander: no clue, are you runnin it with sudo. is this hardy by any chance? | 05:02 |
| izinucs | blah569, no | 05:02 |
| schweeb | sixforty: neither | 05:02 |
| schweeb | sixforty: there's a binary tarbal | 05:03 |

| soldats | see here | 05:03 |
| sixforty | oops. Gutsy. thx anyway | 05:03 |
| izinucs | soldats, thanks.. we're talking server instead of player | 05:03 |
| trakinas | izinucs: hmmmm... i was able to clean almost all the noise on audacity. that is cool. | 05:03 |
| soldats | levander: hmm weird | 05:03 |
| izinucs | trakinas, nice program | 05:04 |
| trakinas | izinucs: i have to go. should already be on bed. he! | 05:04 |
| trakinas | izinucs: cheers! and thank you!! :] | 05:04 |
| sixforty | I really just need the player. | 05:04 |
| izinucs | trakinas, nity nite | 05:04 |
| soldats | levander: no errors? have you checked? also are the repos in /etc/apt/sources.list un-commented? | 05:04 |
| izinucs | sixforty, with the player you have to download an ubuntu appliance.. with server you can install ubuntu or anything else from cd | 05:05 |
| blah569 | Can something like vmware totatly destroy the system? Something unfixable? Should I be fine? | 05:05 |
| levander | soldats: I don't know where to check for errors since all that stuff runs in the background. And yeah, the security repositories are definitely enabled in sources.list here. | 05:05 |
| schweeb | blah569: no more than most other applications. It has some tie-ins at the kernel level | 05:06 |
| schweeb | blah569: but I've never, ever heard of vmware harming the host OS | 05:06 |
| izinucs | sixforty, actually I should say that there are no wndows appliances unless you make your own.. | 05:06 |
| sixforty | If server gets me there, fine. How do I get it on my box? | 05:06 |
| soldats | levander: strange, i had a person in my loco with a similar problem, im still looking into it. if possible i can get back to you on it. you may also try tomorrow when more users are around. | 05:07 |
| Dr_willis | read the info at the !vmware factoid? | 05:07 |
| soldats | sixforty: i had ubot_u give you the link please read it | 05:07 |
| izinucs | sixforty, http://www.vmware.com/products/server/ | 05:08 |
| sixforty | thx. | 05:08 |
| izinucs | np | 05:08 |
| izinucs | sixforty, to set it up you'll need to install build-essential from terminal.. sudo apt-get install build-essential. | 05:09 |
| honeone_ | screen | 05:09 |
| sixforty | OK, I'm with ya as far as sudo :P | 05:10 |
| big-boss_ | ok I used iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 1250 -j ACCEPT | 05:11 |
| big-boss_ | same thing for UDP | 05:11 |
| izinucs | sixforty, build-essential is a collection of libraries and things that allow for compiling programs.. vmware server does some of it's own compiling on install.. pretty automated. | 05:11 |
| big-boss_ | it's still kinda blocked, but the speed is good | 05:11 |
| sixforty | Come to think of it, I dunno the direct way to sudo | 05:11 |
| Zoiks | i keep getting a message saying that i cant fdisk a drive because its busy, even straight after i reset | 05:11 |
| soldats | big-boss_: yea youmay have to reatart the torrent app to have it read it | 05:11 |
| big-boss_ | it's ok for now | 05:11 |
| levander | Is there any GNOME plugin such the when I left click on the desktop with the mouse, it gives me a list of all open application windows? Similar to the function Alt-Tab performs with the keyboard? | 05:11 |
| sixforty | apt-get? | 05:11 |
| big-boss_ | thanks a lot soldats | 05:11 |
| izinucs | sixforty, just like I typed it.. sudo apt-get install build-essential | 05:12 |
| soldats | levander: its possible with other window manager but for GNOME im not sure. enlightenment has it | 05:12 |
| izinucs | sixforty, one line | 05:13 |
| ampmaniac3 | hi! where can i find the error logs of dns? | 05:13 |

| ampmaniac3 | thanks | 05:13 |
| amenado | ampmaniac3-> is it logging? | 05:13 |
| big-boss_ | @soldats: Thanks, restarted the app, and now every thing works perfectly | 05:14 |
| sixforty | I get an error .../dpkg unable to lock | 05:14 |
| ampmaniac3 | im want ot see the error logs because i just installed the bind9 lately but it fails on start | 05:14 |
| izinucs | sixforty, do you have synaptic open or add/remove? | 05:14 |
| soldats | big-boss_: no problem man i hope everyting else works for you. you know where to come for help :D | 05:15 |
| levander | What is this "Super" key I keep reading about in the Compiz doc's? | 05:15 |
| soldats | levander: its the "win" key | 05:15 |
| * sixforty closes Synaptic | 05:15 | |
| schweeb | levander: there are apps to do that type of thing, but I don't recall any doing so via the "root window" or desktop, like enlightenment does | 05:15 |
| levander | This keyboard don't have a win key. | 05:15 |
| soldats | the one with the logo of windows levander | 05:15 |
| levander | soldats: It's not on this keyboard. | 05:16 |
| soldats | is it a laptop | 05:16 |
| schweeb | you might have to rebind super | 05:16 |
| levander | All these years, I been avoiding Microsoft logos on keyboards and now Linux is trying to make me get one. Sucks. | 05:16 |
| soldats | if so im not sure it may be at the top of te keybopard | 05:16 |
| big-boss_ | hahaha @soldats | 05:16 |
| levander | soldats: No, it's one of those old buckling spring IBM keyboards. They don't make keyboards like this anymore. | 05:16 |
| === ajmorris is now known as ajmorris|AFK | ||
| Daisuke_Ido | model M? | 05:17 |
| soldats | levander: the super key is not necessarily windows its a "super" key or meta4 key | 05:17 |
| big-boss_ | you'll have to rebind them | 05:17 |
| sixforty | build-essential already in newest version | 05:17 |
| levander | schweeb: How do I rebind it? | 05:17 |
| izinucs | sixforty, then you're set for the vmware install.. | 05:17 |
| levander | soldats: Where is the meta4 key on my keyboard? | 05:17 |
| schweeb | xkb somethingorother | 05:17 |
| Daisuke_Ido | levander, you can get model-m keyboards still. | 05:17 |
| soldats | levander: se big-boss_ post youll rebind them | 05:17 |
| === din is now known as din_away | ||
| big-boss_ | in your desktop enhancement settings | 05:17 |
| levander | Daisuke_Ido: Yeah, but that pckeyboard.com site you get them from is shady. | 05:17 |
| soldats | levander: the meta4 is the win/super key. see above | 05:17 |
| big-boss_ | select the effect you want | 05:18 |
| levander | soldats: I already told you, I don't have one of those. | 05:18 |
| big-boss_ | then in the tab go to ptions | 05:18 |
| big-boss_ | options* | 05:18 |
| izinucs | sixforty, did you get server downloaded? did you register so they would email the "key"? | 05:18 |

| levander | big-boss_: Let me go back and see what you said. | 05:19 |
| izinucs | sixforty, let me check hang on | 05:19 |
| ampmaniac3 | why does bind9 fails on initial start? i just installed it yesterday and havent configured it yet | 05:19 |
| Daisuke_Ido | offtopic, but... http://steampunkworkshop.com/keyboard.shtml is possibly the single coolest keyboard mod i've EVER seen | 05:19 |
| xb3rt | whats a good c compiler | 05:19 |
| izinucs | sixforty, I think so.. I'm on a win laptop right now and the site defaults to a .exe.. | 05:20 |
| ampmaniac3 | where can i find bind9 error logs | 05:20 |
| ka2 | gcc | 05:20 |
| robinhoodlum | gcc works | 05:20 |
| ArmoredSaint | yeah gcc works fine.. | 05:20 |
| levander | Oh, big-boss. I see what you're saying. But, is there a way just to tell Ubuntu that my "Super" key is somewhere else on my keyboard? So I don't have to go back and rebind each and every individual action? | 05:20 |
| sixforty | I've never installed a binary. | 05:20 |
| robinhoodlum | btw, hiya :P | 05:20 |
| ppd | ygtk | 05:20 |
| jhonijim | what about das keyboard II | 05:21 |
| amenado | ampmaniac3-> did you look at bind9 config file to see if it is supposed to be logging? or maybe you start bind with -debug ? | 05:21 |
| rhineheart_m | why is it that my server is connecting this 91.189.94.4 using port 123? any idea> | 05:21 |

| Hansel | martman - edit your /etc/X11/xorg.conf mebbe? | 05:21 |
| levander | big-boss_: Yeah, okay. Thanks. | 05:21 |
| izinucs | sixforty, I think the download is compressed.. try right mouse clicking on the file and extract | 05:22 |
| sixforty | thx; woulda missed that link | 05:22 |
| martman | Hansel isnt that what the tools are doing and maybe something overwritting everytime | 05:22 |
| schweeb | you can use the XkbOptions feature in xorg.conf | 05:22 |
| === Sweet_girl is now known as sweetest_thing | ||
| schweeb | unfortunately I don't have time to track down the specific options | 05:22 |
| ampmaniac3 | amenado: i started it with /etc/init.d/bind9 start | 05:22 |
| sixforty | and once it's extracted? | 05:22 |
| xb3rt | I have gcc installed, how do i open it | 05:22 |
| soldats | schweeb: "man xorg.conf" should tell you | 05:22 |
| Hansel | martman - dunno... look at the last modification date for the file. | 05:22 |
| rhineheart_m | why is it that my server is connecting this 91.189.94.4 using port 123? any idea? | 05:23 |
| izinucs | sixforty, the rest you have to do from the termina/command line.. | 05:23 |
| amenado | ampmaniac3-> dont know what options you can have with it, look at your bind9 script | 05:23 |
| izinucs | sixforty, did you download to the desktop? | 05:23 |
| sixforty | Ah, good! Home at last! | 05:23 |
| schweeb | soldats: I doubt it's understandably documented in there as such | 05:23 |
| schweeb | http://rubenlaguna.com/wp/2007/01/09/how-to-enable-windows-key-as-super-key-in-linux/ | 05:23 |
| ampmaniac3 | ok.. thanks | 05:23 |
| sixforty | sure, desktop | 05:23 |
| schweeb | here's an example of someone who has done it before | 05:23 |
| schweeb | but you'll have to modify it some | 05:24 |
| sixforty | I'll move it where I can find it. | 05:24 |
| schweeb | as their super key wasn't mapped to windows | 05:24 |
| schweeb | but that example should help some | 05:24 |
| izinucs | sixforty, ok.. in terminal.. cd Desktop | 05:24 |
| schweeb | at least give you an idea of what to look for | 05:24 |
| schweeb | night | 05:24 |
| izinucs | sixforty, once there.. ls to view the files on the desktop.. find the uncompressed directory and cd <directory name> | 05:25 |
| kindofabuzz | man vnc is so cool =) | 05:25 |
| sixforty | uncompressed directory? | 05:25 |
| izinucs | yes | 05:26 |
| izinucs | sixforty, if you extraced the file on the desktop you should have two directories on the desktop. one compressed and the new uncompressed one.. | 05:26 |

| izinucs | Dr_willis, thanks | 05:36 |
| Dr_willis | use the terminal to exttraxt the thing, you will need to be using the terminal to set up vmware eventually anyway | 05:36 |
| Dr_willis | I thought there were some repos that had the vmware server/client in it. | 05:37 |
| Dr_willis | I seem to rember just apt-get installing it befor | 05:37 |
| sixforty | used terminal first time, the clicky-movey thing after that | 05:37 |

| sixforty | Using Pidgin-cum-bit-bucket | 05:46 |
| izinucs | arg.. | 05:47 |
| Dr_willis | cocox, i always just put them in primaries. The drive layout may be the issue. You could try formating tha paittion to ntfs. | 05:47 |
| sixforty | dunno where ta find the pm | 05:47 |
| izinucs | sixforty, in terminal try .. tar xzvf <filename> ... and see if it extracts.. if it doesn't it's a bad download. download again, extract move to the extracted directory and then to start the install ... sudo <filename.pl> .. I think the file name has a pl at the end or possibily a .sh.. use the one that is appropriate | 05:47 |
| cocox | Dr_willis, is in NTFS isn't? | 05:47 |

| ani1 | AdrianStrays: http://ubuntustudio.org/ | 06:11 |
| m0lecule_m | Yep | 06:11 |
| nickrud | awmcclain all it claims to depend on is perl | 06:11 |
| awmcclain | lositd: I would, but we're talking about 10-20 dependencies. I'd rather apt worked correctly. | 06:11 |
| seamus7 | m0lecule_m: hmmm do you have an unusual video card? | 06:11 |
| awmcclain | nickrud: And THAT depends on another package. This is just one of the 10 or so dependencies that are unmet. | 06:11 |
| backtracker | how-to gather (with a command) my system requirements ? | 06:12 |
| nickrud | awmcclain ah, it's saying that it depends on stuff it can't find? | 06:12 |

| awmcclain | nickrud: No, it can find it, it just won't download it., | 06:12 |

| Smegzor | soldats: yeah but its missing a lot of newer effects like snow. | 06:15 |
| awmcclain | nickrud: No, what got me into this whole mess was that I had to build a custom ubuntu package for lighttpd, and THAT was what was failing... since i tried to install that with dkpg, it was halting every other apt-get call. | 06:15 |
| m0lecule_m | k... trying it right now... | 06:15 |
| crackerjackz | just woke up ,heh | 06:15 |

| keithclark | What is this evolution-data-serer-2.22 and why does it take up all my cpu's processing power? | 06:17 |
| awmcclain | nickrud: Getting rid of it lets everything else proceed. So, here's an even better question: Ideally (since I'm automating this), I want to just apt-get install my custom .deb package. What's the easiest way to do that? Specify a local directory in sources? Publish to launchpad PPA? | 06:17 |
| AdrianStrays | But it seems pointless to make a deriviative if there isn't going to be some actual difference between normal ubuntu | 06:17 |
| AdrianStrays | Oh well] | 06:17 |
| nickrud | awmcclain ppa would be good, but search on help.ubuntu.com for personal repository (text search) it shows you how to keep a very simple local repo for a few packages | 06:18 |
| AdrianStrays | So wikipedia is wrong? | 06:18 |
| ka2 | keithclark: its what handles your data for evolution | 06:19 |
| awmcclain | nickrud: Yeah, I looked, but most of them were about copying the ubuntu CD locally. Any idea of where I could find the correct directory structure for an apt- repository? | 06:19 |
| ani1 | AdrianStrays: The original version, based on Ubuntu 7.04, was released 2007-05-10. << this makes no sense | 06:19 |
| awmcclain | nickrud: Don't answer that. Let me look first. | 06:19 |
| ani1 | AdrianStrays: if that were true they would have had a livecd out by now | 06:19 |
| keithclark | ka2, I don't use evolution and it is making my cpu run 100% | 06:19 |
| ka2 | keithclark: youll have it wether you use it or not. but 100%! | 06:20 |
| m0lecule_m | Nope still doesn't show anything... | 06:20 |
| keithclark | ka2, yup....it's been like that for over an hour | 06:20 |
| AdrianStrays | Maybe they will when Hardy Heron comes out? | 06:20 |
| ani1 | AdrianStrays: i look at it just as a application, theme, and sound bundle so you dont need to manually search for everything and its a complete package | 06:20 |
| AdrianStrays | But why give it a Alternate Install disk? | 06:21 |
| kindofabuzz | anyone use mrxvt terminal? | 06:21 |

| Motorsport3 | thanks cabrioleur, that's what I needed to know, do you know how to check symlinks | 06:26 |
| Motorsport3 | ? | 06:26 |
| seamus7 | m0lecule_m what video driver are you using for that card? | 06:26 |
| tritium | AdrianStrays: it's likely a set of meta-packages, similar to the metapackages from which you can install kubunt, xubuntu, mythbuntu, etc. | 06:26 |
| moni4m | xeer: I had similar problem (blank screen) after installing restricted nvidia drivers. There are a lot threads in google. some options/lines in xorg.conf file could help | 06:26 |
| AdrianStrays | Whats a meta-package? | 06:27 |
| m0lecule_m | The restricted ATI driver that Envy installed.... | 06:27 |
| m0lecule_m | That's all I know. | 06:27 |
| tritium | AdrianStrays: a package that contains no files itself, but depends on several other packages. | 06:27 |
| ani1 | !envy | m0lecule_m | 06:27 |
| ubotu | m0lecule_m: 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 » | 06:27 |
| moni4m | xeer: I am with laptop, ubuntu gutsy | 06:28 |
| farkewie | hello what is the best softwsre convert dvds to avidio file for usig on my media centre? | 06:28 |
| tritium | AdrianStrays: "apt-cache search ubuntustudio" would indicate to me that you can install it, just like the aforementioned. | 06:28 |
| cabrioleur | Motorsport3, I use ls -l, but there is many ways | 06:28 |
| m0lecule_m | Well, the ATI driver before didn't work... although that was on 8.04 beta... | 06:28 |
| ppd | hi. can anyone here give me a little help with pygtk dnd? | 06:29 |
| SuperSayjin | hello f@h | 06:29 |

| ani1 | lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 2008-03-08 17:59 vi -> /usr/bin/vim.tiny | 06:29 |
| AdrianStrays | Okay, I got a silly question, but why can't I have a user name that starts with a capital letter? | 06:29 |
| SuperSayjin | oops | 06:29 |
| m0lecule_m | Should I uninstall the Envy driver and install the one that comes with 7.10? | 06:29 |
| ani1 | m0lecule_m: i would suggest doing that | 06:29 |
| m0lecule_m | How would I go about doing that? | 06:30 |
| ani1 | m0lecule_m: i used to use envy until i spent 3 hrs one day reversing everything ....open envy and choose uninstall | 06:30 |
| ani1 | m0lecule_m: reboot then go to the restricted drivers manager install the correct driver then reboot again | 06:30 |
| Motorsport3 | thanks cabrioleur & ani1, much appreciated | 06:31 |
| keithclark | Boy, I could really use some help here. The process evolution-data-server-2.22 has just taken over my system. It is consuming all of my processing power bringing everything else to a crawl.... | 06:31 |
| m0lecule_m | But, I'm using Linux Mint... how do I get to the restricted drivers manager? is the driver in the ubuntu repositories? | 06:32 |
| ani1 | keithclark: do you use hardy? | 06:32 |
| cabrioleur | AdrianStrays, you can, but you will have problems communicating with other systems... so traditionally it's a small letter. | 06:32 |
| keithclark | anil, yes | 06:32 |
| ani1 | m0lecule_m: do you have /usr/bin/restricted-manager ? | 06:33 |
| astro76 | keithclark: #ubuntu+1 | 06:33 |
| cabrioleur | AdrianStrays, it comes from idea that Unix can differentiate a capital and small characters, while Windows can't... | 06:33 |

| SaEeDIRHA | when i configure STATIC IP address and changed /etc/networks/interface file how can i send host name to Router? | 06:35 |
| SaEeDIRHA | because when i use static ip address my computer name does no appear in my router! | 06:35 |

| crdlb | AdrianStrays: not possible | 06:37 |
| AdrianStrays | Really? | 06:37 |
| kindofabuzz | AdrianStrays: yup, not possible | 06:37 |
| AdrianStrays | I saw it in videos online. | 06:37 |
| kindofabuzz | from what i've heard | 06:37 |
| AdrianStrays | Or | 06:37 |
| nickrud | AdrianStrays we've wanted that for ages | 06:37 |
| cabrioleur | AdrianStrays, it is possible. | 06:37 |
| AdrianStrays | Atleast the background was different | 06:37 |
| SaEeDIRHA | is it even possible ? | 06:37 |
| AdrianStrays | I've seen it in videos. | 06:37 |
| kindofabuzz | was it ubuntu? | 06:37 |
| ani1 | SaEeDIRHA: gksu network-admin | 06:37 |
| puput | u org ingrz z/???? | 06:37 |
| AdrianStrays | Seems like a no-brainer feature to me. | 06:38 |
| crdlb | AdrianStrays: there are a few hacks for gnome that allow you to make the desktop background switch when you switch workspaces | 06:38 |
| crdlb | wallpapoz is one of those | 06:38 |
| nickrud | AdrianStrays there are scripts that, but they're not exactly stable | 06:38 |
| AdrianStrays | Hm | 06:38 |
| AdrianStrays | Why is that so difficult? | 06:38 |

| nickrud | ArmyMan007 boot xp or vista, and use the disk formatter | 06:42 |
| cabrioleur | farkewie, acidrip, k9copy, dvd::rip | 06:43 |
| AdrianStrays | Thanks | 06:43 |
| crackerjackz | kindofabuzz i installed it by going to linksys.com clicking on the live chat (it uses java) a message bar at the top popped up that said install missing plug ins | 06:43 |
| crackerjackz | thats what i did | 06:43 |
| AdrianStrays | Ugh | 06:43 |
| AdrianStrays | Linux is so complicated | 06:43 |

| crackerjackz | armyman2007 why would you want to do that? | 06:44 |
| ani1 | lekremyelsew: did you mount the disk? | 06:44 |
| kindofabuzz | at least get 2000 or xp | 06:44 |
| moni4m | ani1: I did not try anything (still new with linux). I follow virtualbox and add br0 interface. Which part is strange (I could search more details in internet) - like having 2 different IP for eth0 and br0? sometimes these two IP are the same. Sometimes it is working fine with two IP addresses. | 06:44 |
| ArmyMan007 | kindofabuzz -> it's an old computer | 06:44 |
| crackerjackz | armyman007 i would use windows xp pro | 06:44 |
| kindofabuzz | something that's not dos based | 06:44 |
| crackerjackz | because of the group policy editor | 06:44 |
| ArmyMan007 | kindofabuzz -> it's an 8 years computer... | 06:44 |
| nickrud | ArmyMan007 the reason I ask is what I advise will depend on where you want to end up | 06:44 |
| kindofabuzz | so? | 06:44 |
| kindofabuzz | i've installe xp on a p2 | 06:45 |
| ArmyMan007 | kindofabuzz -> it's a VERY OLD computer... | 06:45 |
| crackerjackz | armyman2007 how much RAM and CPU do you have? | 06:45 |
| nbjayme | hello all. | 06:45 |
| lekremyelsew | ani1: it says "there is probably no media in the drive" | 06:45 |
| kindofabuzz | ArmyMan007: then linux would be best for that computer | 06:45 |
| crackerjackz | kindofabuzz i agree with you | 06:45 |
| ani1 | moni4m: i don't know if it would even help at all i dont use virtualbox i use vmware :\ but you have your interfaces set up for DHCP if your behind a router, as your 3rd pastebin shows, just set a static and see if it still forces you to restart networking do this by gksu network-admin | 06:45 |
| ArmyMan007 | kindofabuzz -> if I would have knowen how to use it... I would have worked with linux | 06:45 |
| crackerjackz | windoze uses up alot of resources | 06:45 |
| nbjayme | i am not an advanced linux user. i have installed ipmasq lately and was successful at sharing the internet. what application or script can i install to require a login page before letting it through the ipmasq? thanks in advance | 06:46 |

| crackerjackz | armymany007 what desktop enviorment are you using | 06:46 |

| crackerjackz | kde? | 06:46 |

| cabrioleur | ArmyMan007, use fsdisk to remove partitions with linux, and "fdisk /mbr" to fix mbr. | 06:46 |
| ArmyMan007 | kindofabuzz -> unfoutunatly, people around here can't help me configuring the internet connection... | 06:46 |
| kindofabuzz | you're on now? | 06:46 |

| moni4m | ani1: hm. In fact, in network-admin I can't see br0 interface (only "wired connection" and "modem connection") | 06:52 |
| Smegzor | Is there anywhere I can look at my network settings other than what you get with Administration/Network? I have to manually start my network at every boot and I'd like it to start automatically. | 06:53 |

| hischild | Mzalendo, what's the problem? | 06:57 |
| crackerjackz | hey kindofabuzz | 06:57 |
| kindofabuzz | yo | 06:57 |
| Mzalendo | hischild: well, i installed Ubuntu on a previous NTFS setup... Windows got completely corrupted... | 06:57 |
| crackerjackz | do you know how i uninstall that icetea java plug in | 06:57 |
| === Black_Magic__ is now known as Black_Magic | ||
| crackerjackz | and install the sun java plug in | 06:58 |
| hischild | Mzalendo, you mean you installed ubuntu on a partition that windows was installed on? | 06:58 |
| kindofabuzz | crackerjackz: did you check synaptic? | 06:58 |
| Mzalendo | hischild: one of the partitions wasnt included... | 06:58 |
| crackerjackz | no | 06:58 |
| pen | I have a question about gnome-panel | 06:58 |
| david | time to test 8.04 beta | 06:58 |
| ani1 | !ask | pen | 06:58 |
| ubotu | pen: 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. :-) | 06:58 |
| Mzalendo | hischild: it is there, but it refuses to mount | 06:58 |
| hischild | Mzalendo, ok you'll have to give me a bit more info here. How is windows corrupted and how did you install ubuntu? | 06:59 |
| pen | is it possible to change panel to something like this screenshot? http://phunkycow.deviantart.com/art/Azurite-Darkmod-69387475 | 06:59 |
| cabrioleur | Mzalendo, pastebin the output from mount. | 06:59 |
| kindofabuzz | crackerjackz: cause i think it's there, search it, right click it, mark for complete removal | 06:59 |
| pen | I know it's from Arch linux, but they use the same gnome-panel right? | 06:59 |
| crackerjackz | ok | 06:59 |
| moni4m | Mzalendo: corrupted means - not mounted or you can't start/login your windows? | 06:59 |
| Mzalendo | hischild: well, i installed it on the corrupted windows partition, and left the data partition (on the first drive... my PC has two drives) untouched... | 06:59 |
| cabrioleur | pen, yes | 06:59 |
| kindofabuzz | actaully i know it's there if it aske you do download it at the site | 06:59 |
| pen | cabrioleur: do you know how he did that? | 07:00 |
| hischild | Mzalendo, ok so far i think i get it. And what is the problem now? | 07:00 |
| ani1 | pen: http://gnome-look.org/ yeah the top bar somewhat looks like the pic except for the rounded edges look for themes | 07:00 |
| Mzalendo | hischild: there is data on that partition that i need to recover, urgently... it is some very important client data... and i have no backup :-( | 07:00 |
| cabrioleur | pen, did what? It's a normal panel... | 07:01 |
| hischild | Mzalendo, wait on the partition that you installed it on? that's gonna be though luck i'm afraid ... | 07:01 |
| hischild | Mzalendo, if it's on the other drive we can manage to do that | 07:01 |
| crackerjackz | kindofabuzz i searched keyword " ice " in synaptic and that plug in didnt come up | 07:01 |
| crackerjackz | tried "tea" too | 07:01 |
| crackerjackz | with out the qoutes of course | 07:01 |
| ArmyMan007 | crackerjackz | 07:01 |
| ArmyMan007 | crackerjackz -> hi | 07:01 |
| pen | cabrioleur: see the icon and the separator? | 07:01 |
| ArmyMan007 | crackerjackz -> :D | 07:01 |
| crackerjackz | armyman2007 | 07:01 |
| ArmyMan007 | crackerjackz -> now what do I do again? | 07:01 |
| Kuto | has anyone here installed gutsy on dell latitude d600? gutsy is so slow on my laptop.. | 07:01 |
| Mzalendo | hischild: it's not... u mean that untouched partition is gone? there is no partition manager software for Ubuntu? | 07:01 |
| ArmyMan007 | crackerjackz -> it's not 2007... it's 007 (as in james bond...) | 07:02 |
| crackerjackz | ooops | 07:02 |
| ArmyMan007 | crackerjackz ->:P | 07:02 |
| kindofabuzz | crackerjackz: try again, it's there | 07:02 |
| rama_su | Bond James Bond | 07:02 |
| rama_su | 007 | 07:02 |
| hischild | Mzalendo, no, i meant: the partition you installed ubuntu on, that data is gone. The other partition, the untouched one: that's recovarable (and if you wish i'll help you through) | 07:02 |
| pen | ani1: ok | 07:02 |
| cabrioleur | pen, the icon will change with your icon theme. You might replace the standard icon with a new one, it will do it. The separator is up the theme. | 07:02 |
| ArmyMan007 | crackerjackz ->now how do I do it? please retype it.. | 07:02 |

| ani1 | pen: the name of it is Azurite Darkmod | 07:03 |
| pen | ani1: I see | 07:03 |
| pen | ani1: thx | 07:03 |
| Mzalendo | hischild: can we do this in private... i am getting confused following u... | 07:03 |
| crackerjackz | kindofabuzz ok let me look again | 07:03 |
| hischild | Mzalendo, i understand, it's kind of busy. Is PM ok? | 07:03 |
| pen | ani1: but I don't know how did he do to the icon on the left of the panel? | 07:03 |
| Mzalendo | hischild: that's what i prefer... u can guide me more accurately in PM | 07:03 |
| pen | ani1: is it a png? | 07:04 |
| ArmyMan007 | crackerjackz -> ready to go... | 07:04 |
| ani1 | pen: eh me neither look for icon packs ..if its not included with the theme its probably here http://gnome-look.org/index.php?xcontentmode=120x121 | 07:04 |
| hischild | Mzalendo, are you registered? (you have to be registered to be able to PM) | 07:04 |
| cabrioleur | pen, it's a part of the icon theme he is using. | 07:04 |
| Mzalendo | hischild: yes, i am | 07:04 |
| ani1 | pen: i honestly couldn't tell you for sure if its a png | 07:04 |
| crackerjackz | kindofabuzz its still not showing up even when i just search java | 07:04 |
| kindofabuzz | it's in mine, check your list | 07:04 |
| crackerjackz | armyman007 did you get my msn yes or no dont read my addy back to the whole chat =P | 07:04 |
| ArmyMan007 | crackerjackz -> ready to rock & roll | 07:04 |
| pen | ani1: is there a version for ubuntu too? have you seen any of those before? | 07:05 |
| pen | cabrioleur: I see | 07:05 |
| ani1 | pen: no i just looked at the file name and looked up the package at gnome-look :) | 07:05 |
| ArmyMan007 | crackerjackz -> I've got it... | 07:05 |
| kindofabuzz | crackerjackz: are you searching synaptic or add/remove? | 07:05 |
| pen | ani1: oh :) | 07:05 |
| ani1 | pen: thx for bringing it up though its really cool I will probably install it | 07:05 |
| ArmyMan007 | crackerjackz -> (a simple yes or no sounds lame... :P) | 07:05 |
| pen | ani1: :) | 07:06 |
| lekremyelsew | is anyone here good with hardware? | 07:06 |
| crackerjackz | kindofabuzz add/remove >_< how do i search synaptic im used to gentoo its what iv been learning on | 07:06 |

| luckylin | System/Administration/Synaptic | 07:07 |
| ani1 | kindofabuzz: crackerjackz thats synaptic | 07:07 |
| tritium | crackerjackz: apt-cache search <search term> | 07:07 |
| kindofabuzz | yeah that too | 07:07 |
| luckylin | synaptic is your friend ^.^ | 07:07 |
| cabrioleur | lekremyelsew, what do you mean by that? | 07:08 |
| crackerjackz | tritim for example apt-cache search <icedtea> ? | 07:08 |
| kindofabuzz | yup | 07:08 |
| cabrioleur | lekremyelsew, I know how to use a soldering gun :-) | 07:08 |
| kindofabuzz | without <> | 07:08 |
| lekremyelsew | cabrioleur: its simple problem: my CD drive doesnt read CDs | 07:09 |
| kindofabuzz | crackerjackz: you're on gentoo but in ubuntu channel =| | 07:09 |
| crackerjackz | im on gentoo and ubuntu | 07:09 |
| crackerjackz | both computers are sitting side by side | 07:09 |
| kindofabuzz | oh the gentoo has the icedtea? | 07:09 |
| crackerjackz | im on my gentoo computer asking you questions about my ubutnu computer beside me | 07:09 |
| cabrioleur | lekremyelsew, are you sure it's not software? At the starting point I am suggesting cleaning the laser lens. | 07:10 |
| kindofabuzz | is gentoo debian? | 07:10 |
| crackerjackz | no the ubuntu has the icedtea | 07:10 |
| cabrioleur | kindofabuzz, noooooooo! | 07:10 |
| crackerjackz | gentoo is far from debian | 07:10 |
| crackerjackz | i like gentoo because of portage | 07:10 |
| kindofabuzz | well then do what we said, system > administration > synaptic | 07:10 |
| crackerjackz | this ubuntu is actually for my mom | 07:10 |
| kindofabuzz | is she hot? | 07:10 |
| luckylin | does anyone know how to make ubuntu automatically do "sudo rmmod pcspkr" at startup? | 07:10 |
| kindofabuzz | lol | 07:10 |
| tritium | kindofabuzz: be appropriate, please | 07:10 |
| kindofabuzz | sorry =) | 07:10 |
| luckylin | i don't like typing that over and over again ^.^ | 07:10 |
| lekremyelsew | cabrioleur: im sure, cuz both OSs cant read it, and i cant boot off CDs i normally can | 07:11 |
| tritium | crackerjackz: there are source packages in ubuntu as well, that you can compile yourself if you prefer | 07:11 |
| crackerjackz | kindofabuzz ubuntu is debian | 07:11 |
| crackerjackz | pretty much | 07:11 |
| crackerjackz | correct me if im wrong people? | 07:11 |
| kindofabuzz | crackerjackz: then what's the problem, we've told you 3 ways to get rid of it | 07:11 |
| tritium | crackerjackz: it's debian-derived, yes | 07:11 |
| kindofabuzz | it's a debian child | 07:11 |
| cabrioleur | lekremyelsew, did you kick it recently? Does the light flashes? Does the light reacts on boot commands, bios tests etc? | 07:12 |
| crackerjackz | kindofabuzz im getting ready to go to synaptic | 07:12 |
| crackerjackz | just been typing =P | 07:12 |
| ani1 | luckylin: i am fairly sure its done by adding it to cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | 07:12 |
| ani1 | 07:12 | |
| luckylin | thank you anil i will look =) | 07:12 |
| ani1 | luckylin: dont cat though rofl i was using that to see what was in mine | 07:12 |
| cabrioleur | luckylin, the best way would be to create a script, chmod +x on it, and then copy to rc.d | 07:12 |
| lekremyelsew | cabrioleur: do u mean literally kick it? | 07:12 |
| cabrioleur | lekremyelsew, or treated inhuman ways... | 07:13 |
| kindofabuzz | just curious, is it possible to push a windows app through ssh and run it locally under wine? | 07:13 |
| luckylin | ok, i also need another script for turning my wireless adaptor on :) | 07:13 |
| cabrioleur | kindofabuzz, yes | 07:13 |
| tritium | luckylin: why would you need to script that? | 07:13 |
| luckylin | i have to manually copy/paste from a text file the wlan commands everytime i restart | 07:13 |
| ampmaniac3 | help pls. i cant even stop bind9 | 07:14 |
| crackerjackz | icedtea is gone =] | 07:14 |
| crackerjackz | thank you | 07:14 |
| cabrioleur | tritium, to make it more transparent. | 07:14 |

| === mmm4m5m is now known as mmm4m5m_ | ||
| kindofabuzz | cabrioleur: hwo would it use all the dlls and stuff, does it push the whole thing? or whould you have to have alot of the stuff locally? | 07:14 |
| justin007827 | anyone know much about xgl? | 07:14 |
| ampmaniac3 | im using root account but gives me error like this Stopping domain name service... bind rndc: connect failed: 127.0.0.1#953: connection refused | 07:14 |
| cabrioleur | kindofabuzz, everything is locally. It's only ssh :-) | 07:15 |
| kindofabuzz | crackerjackz: now visit another site that needs java this time install sun java | 07:15 |
| lekremyelsew | cabrioleur: its been sitting in my desk for a few years, i havnt abused it really. how do you do a bios test on it | 07:15 |
| tritium | cabrioleur: transparent? | 07:15 |
| kindofabuzz | or crackerjackz or just install java from synaptic | 07:15 |
| crackerjackz | kindofabuzz when i visit a site with java the only plug in that comes up is that icedtea one | 07:16 |
| crackerjackz | how ever sun java does show up in add/remove | 07:16 |
| cabrioleur | lekremyelsew, bios do it by itself. it will tell you if it can see it or not. | 07:16 |
| luckylin | everytime i reboot the computer i have to copy/paste these commands "iwconfig wlan0 essid, iwconfig wlan0 enc, dhclient wlan0" to get online | 07:16 |
| wilburdude | Anyone aware of Intel Pro/1000 (e1000) issues in AMD64? E1000 module is loading, and nic has link light, but ethtool reports no connection. Can't get dhcp, static IP doesn't work either. | 07:16 |
| justin007827 | i'm running H.H. 8.04 on a first gen. macbook pro. I tried to install XGL from synoptic, and it messed stuff up. Anyone have any clues to why and how I can get emerald working? | 07:16 |
| kindofabuzz | crackerjackz: use synaptic, not add/remove, well i guess it don't matter since it shows up in a/r | 07:16 |
| cabrioleur | tritium, it's easier to find a well described file than look for it in other files. | 07:16 |

| Goose1984 | Hi I want to install the NVidia graphic card drivers, the ones i just downloaded from their site. so first of all i type "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" this stop gdm however i cant do anything else i cant sudo help please | 07:17 |
| ani1 | justin007827 /join #ubuntu+1 | 07:17 |

| kindofabuzz | is hardy still beta1? just a quick question, don't point me to ubuntu-1 | 07:17 |
| lekremyelsew | cabrioleur: ok, how do i get to the lens? | 07:18 |
| cabrioleur | tritium, the guy was asking about how to add a start-up command. | 07:18 |

| ubotu | Goose1984: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 07:18 |
| kindofabuzz | crackerjackz: get plugina and runtime if you run any java apps | 07:18 |
| ani1 | Goose1984: why dont you just use the restricted drivers manager to install the drivers? | 07:18 |
| crackerjackz | it will let me select runtime but not plug in | 07:18 |
| cabrioleur | lekremyelsew, open the tray. It's the small "eye" near the middle. Don't harass it. | 07:18 |

| tritium | cabrioleur: no, my question was about his comment that he wants to script his wireless config | 07:19 |
| ani1 | Goose1984: it would be the proper drivers | 07:19 |
| luckylin | i think all you gotta do is type sudo gdm to turn gdm back on once it's off | 07:20 |
| tritium | luckylin: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart | 07:20 |
| Goose1984 | but that what i am saying when i stop gdm i cant sudo again i cant do anything i have to restart the machine | 07:21 |

| irish | irish2s1 | 07:22 |
| luckylin | the rcconf lets you uncheck gdm from being booted so you boot into the command line | 07:22 |
| cabrioleur | Goose1984, press alt+ctrl+f1 | 07:22 |
| crackerjackz | kindofabuzz itll let me select runtime but not plug in | 07:22 |
| Goose1984 | how do i run rcconf | 07:22 |
| cabrioleur | Goose1984, X's are under f7 by default. | 07:22 |
| pen | it's hard to find a decent ubuntu dock icon | 07:22 |
| luckylin | its in synaptic | 07:23 |
| luckylin | i used it when i put on my drivers | 07:23 |
| Goose1984 | i have downloaded it and installed it | 07:23 |
| luckylin | type sudo rcconf to run | 07:23 |
| ani1 | pen: awn / avant macish type of doc stations although awn crashes for me quit a bit | 07:23 |
| pen | ani1: I already have that installed ;) | 07:24 |
| luckylin | and on my machine once in the booted command line sudo gdm braught me back to the gui | 07:24 |
| pen | ani1: I'm getting the icon for the panel | 07:24 |
| ani1 | ah | 07:24 |
| pen | ani1: because some of you call it a dock | 07:24 |
| cabrioleur | I figured out what every fresh ubuntu user should get with cd... a slackbook... | 07:24 |
| ani1 | pen: heh | 07:24 |
| luckylin | goose are you using ati or nvidia? | 07:25 |
| Goose1984 | nvidia | 07:26 |
| Goose1984 | ok i have used rcconf and its all good so far | 07:26 |
| luckylin | k, when installing the nvidia drivers halfway through it will ask for "libc dev" | 07:26 |
| lekremyelsew | cabrioleur: sorry for being an idiot, but wuts fod? | 07:26 |
| luckylin | so you should get that before you reboot | 07:26 |
| luckylin | i think synaptic calls it lib6c dev | 07:27 |
| cabrioleur | lekremyelsew, foreign object debris, sorry for acronyms from aviation... | 07:27 |
| cabrioleur | crackerjackz, are you trying to remove the plugin? | 07:28 |
| tritium | cabrioleur: an ubuntu book would be more suitable for obvious reasons | 07:28 |
| lekremyelsew | cabrioleur: ok thx :) | 07:28 |
| crackerjackz | cabriloleur no im trying to install it | 07:28 |
| cabrioleur | tritium, non exists. | 07:28 |
| tritium | cabrioleur: no, there is are several ubuntu books, including an official one written by Canonical folks | 07:29 |
| RioMerc | Hello, #ubuntu? | 07:30 |
| tritium | cabrioleur: http://www.ubuntu.com/news/official_ubuntu_book, and many others | 07:30 |
| cabrioleur | tritium, thanks | 07:30 |
| luckylin | yes Goose1984, you'll need libc6-dev from synaptic to install the nvidia drivers | 07:30 |
| tritium | sure | 07:30 |
| Goose1984 | ok i have typed "sudo sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-169.12-pkg1.run" and it stating sh: cant open Nvidia blah blah | 07:31 |
| luckylin | thats because your still running gdm | 07:31 |
| luckylin | the rcconf only makes gdm not reboot | 07:32 |
| Jafet | If you want to install nvidia-glx why not just use the package manager. | 07:32 |
| luckylin | so you'll boot into a black and white command line | 07:32 |
| Goose1984 | thats where i am at | 07:32 |
| Jafet | On an unrelated note, is cp sufficient for moving your entire install to a different disk? | 07:32 |
| Creationist | Jafet: Because the nvidia driver in the repos is 69 revisions old :) | 07:32 |
| Goose1984 | no graphics at all | 07:32 |
| tritium | Goose1984: note that downloads from nvidia.com are not supported | 07:32 |
| luckylin | a good thing to do before you reboot is copy down the exact location of the driver so you can type it in | 07:33 |
| Dr_willis | Jafet, normally ive seen tar, or cpio used - in case there are links or other special files | 07:33 |
| Goose1984 | i know its on the desktop | 07:33 |
| luckylin | /home/usr/Desktop/Downloads/NVIDIA-Linux for example | 07:34 |
| Dr_willis | Tab complketion comes in handy. :) | 07:34 |
| luckylin | then when you reboot you will boot to the command line, and you can sudo sh /home/usr/Desktop/Driver | 07:34 |
| Jorj | can some1 help me with "iphone-mount" ? | 07:35 |
| luckylin | but then after the install youl be stuck in the command line unless you turn gdm back on | 07:35 |
| Goose1984 | yep i am on the desktop dir | 07:35 |
| Jafet | Dr_willis, eh, tar on / ? | 07:35 |
| ani1 | pen: let me know if you ever figure out the app menu | 07:35 |
| pen | ani1: I got it | 07:36 |
| pen | ani1: I mean the style | 07:36 |
| pen | ani1: now trying to replace the icon | 07:36 |
| pen | ani1: where to replace? | 07:36 |
| ani1 | pen: thats what i mean | 07:36 |
| ani1 | pen: i have everything just like you do the theme and the emerald skin but im looking into the menu replacements | 07:37 |
| pen | ani1: want to know? it's actually in the panel items | 07:37 |
| luckylin | goose you gotta restart your computer to have what the rcconf did work, and once your drivers are installed type "sudo gdm" to bring the graphic interface back | 07:37 |
| pen | ani1: look for Main Menu in Add to menu | 07:37 |
| pen | ani1: it's cool | 07:37 |
| ani1 | pen: rofl | 07:37 |
| tritium | luckylin: no, sudo invoke-rc.d gdm start, not simply sudo gdm | 07:37 |
| pen | ani1: but now I don't know where to replace the icon | 07:38 |
| pen | ani1: I know, never know it's that close | 07:38 |
| ArmyMan007 | back | 07:38 |
| crackerjackz | armyman007 open up a terminal window and type "ls pci" with out the qoutes | 07:39 |
| tritium | ArmyMan007: "lspci" with no space in between ls and pci | 07:39 |
| ArmyMan007 | crackerjackz -> booting up... | 07:39 |
| luckylin | and then re run rcconf and recheck gdm | 07:39 |
| dm-madman | howdy n00bs | 07:39 |
| Jiinze | Is ubuntu good for hosting a dedicated server, and how long is the average uptime for it? | 07:39 |
| gd1 | hi, Ubuntu does not completely boot because of an X error (no screens found!!) and during boot some strange errors appear: 'Buffer I/O error on device sda2, logical block ......[numbers]" | 07:39 |
| ArmyMan007 | what am I looking for guys? | 07:39 |
| crackerjackz | armyman007 "ls(space)pci | 07:39 |
| Gottaname | ubuntu makes a good desktop server OS | 07:40 |
| Gottaname | errr | 07:40 |
| Gottaname | a desktop OS | 07:40 |
| Gottaname | not a server one | 07:40 |
| FloodBot1 | Gottaname: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 07:40 |
| tritium | Gottaname: it does either | 07:40 |
| hischild | crackerjackz, it's lspci without spaces. ls pci gives an error. | 07:40 |
| gd1 | will anybody try to tell me how can I trobleshoot these problems | 07:40 |
| crackerjackz | oh | 07:40 |
| crackerjackz | my bad | 07:40 |
| tritium | As I said... | 07:40 |
| crackerjackz | armyman007 do lspci with no spaces then | 07:41 |
| gd1 | in particular why no screen is detected and why those I/O errors | 07:41 |
| dm-madman | ArmyMan007 : hook it up with the wired so you can pastebin your lspci | 07:41 |
| Gottaname | tritium: ubuntu has yet to replace stuff like fedora for Virtualization and server related stuff | 07:41 |
| Gottaname | I still use fedora, gentoo on my colo boxes, very pessemistic about deploying ubuntu in | 07:41 |
| ArmyMan007 | ALL -> what am I looking for? | 07:41 |
| tritium | Gottaname: it has a fine server, and virtualization is in great shape, particularly on hardy | 07:41 |
| crackerjackz | armyman007 hook an ethernet cable from your ubuntu computer to your router | 07:42 |
| ArmyMan007 | crackerjackz -> it's not a cable... | 07:42 |
| ArmyMan007 | crackerjackz -> there is no cable... | 07:42 |
| ce_cuTe | gfdg | 07:42 |
| Gottaname | but still can't beat the commerical support offered by fedora? | 07:42 |
| hischild | tritium, vbox never ran better then what i'm experiencing now on hardy | 07:42 |
| Gottaname | or a more established distro? | 07:42 |
| tritium | !server | Jiinze | 07:42 |
| crackerjackz | you dont have an ethernet cable? | 07:42 |
| ubotu | Jiinze: Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server-specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is 6.06. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ServerFaq/ - The #ubuntu-server channel provides specific support | 07:42 |
| tritium | hischild: cool | 07:42 |
| dm-madman | ArmyMan007 : your computer has 2 ethernet cards...one wired, one wireless | 07:42 |
| ArmyMan007 | crackerjackz -> beats me... | 07:42 |
| dm-madman | ArmyMan007 : hook up the wired one for a minute | 07:43 |
| tritium | Gottaname: canonical offers commercial support, yes | 07:43 |
| Gottaname | I'm using xen on fedora, if xen works for it | 07:43 |
| Gottaname | maybe I might try | 07:43 |
| Jiinze | Thanks | 07:43 |
| ArmyMan007 | ALL -> okey.. here's the thing... the 98 computer DOES NOT have the router on it... and it has no cables... | 07:43 |
| Gottaname | my desktop ubuntu box has a horriable track record | 07:43 |
| mark[oz] | If I have an algorithm that decrypts a hash, would that method to decrypt go in my method? | 07:43 |
| pen | ani1: ok, I changed it | 07:43 |
| ArmyMan007 | ALL -> on the Win98 it just worked without any plugins... | 07:43 |
| mark[oz] | wrong channel :) | 07:43 |
| tritium | Gottaname: ubuntu is well established, as is debian, upon which it is based | 07:44 |
| Goose1984 | I have now installed the driver however its come up and says the that graphics card has not been detected and graphics has started in safe mode | 07:44 |
| ani1 | pen: oh yeah? i just got mine moved the way i like it :\ is it in the icon's? | 07:44 |
| Gottaname | which is the question why wouldn't you use debian as a server OS in that case? | 07:44 |
| crackerjackz | armyman007 you dont have one of these http://www.usm.maine.edu/resnet/images/standardcable.jpg | 07:44 |
| Kama | i am having trouble with jre | 07:44 |
| Gottaname | I believe ubuntu is a great OS for desktop use | 07:44 |
| Kama | java doesnt work at all with firefox | 07:44 |
| ArmyMan007 | crackerjackz -> no | 07:44 |
| tritium | Gottaname: because an ubuntu version exists as well, and is equally capable. | 07:44 |
| Gottaname | but I have yet to see widespread use of it in the data centre, server area | 07:45 |
| ArmyMan007 | crackerjackz -> looking to show you what I have... | 07:45 |
| crackerjackz | armyman007 you should pick up a couple ethernet cables some time | 07:45 |
| david | Gottaname: there are lots of OS flavors for those areas | 07:45 |
| crackerjackz | just to have around the house | 07:45 |
| ArmyMan007 | crackerjackz -> will think about that... | 07:45 |
| dm-madman | ArmyMan007 : you have a usb flash drive? a floppy disc? | 07:45 |
| tritium | Gottaname: we can't control what you've been exposed to | 07:45 |
| ArmyMan007 | dm-madman -> yes | 07:45 |
| pen | ani1: what do you mean? I use a custom icon for my Main menu got it from deviantart | 07:45 |
| luckylin | Goose1984: are you installing drivers on a different computer then the one your in this IRC chat? | 07:46 |
| orbisvicis | how can i get line numbers in gedit ? | 07:46 |
| david | each admin has his own favourite, and to some extent distros and OSs have their own areas of expertise | 07:46 |
| ani1 | pen: yeah thats what i figured it was a icon pack | 07:46 |
| ani1 | pen: thanks though i really like it :} | 07:46 |
| dm-madman | ArmyMan007 : run 'lspci > lspci.txt' | 07:46 |
| Kama | anyone? | 07:46 |
| pen | ani1: np :) but which icon pack do you mean? | 07:47 |
| Kama | i tried uninstalling firefox but it wold not let me | 07:47 |
| dm-madman | ArmyMan007 : copy the lspci.txt to your flash drive or floppy | 07:47 |
| Kama | said i needed to go throguh the synaptic manager | 07:47 |
| Gottaname | oh well, but some general opinions say that ubuntu is still abit half baked thrown together kind | 07:47 |
| ArmyMan007 | ALL -> this is what it looks like... | 07:47 |
| ArmyMan007 | http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&q=Network+Card+:%09D-Link+AirPlus+DWL-520%2B+Wireless+PCI+Adapter&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wi | 07:47 |
| dm-madman | ArmyMan007 : put it in *this* computer with *working* internet | 07:47 |
| tritium | Gottaname: are you done trolling yet? | 07:47 |
| dm-madman | ArmyMan007 : and then copy it to a pastebin service | 07:47 |
| dm-madman | ArmyMan007 : ok? | 07:47 |
| ani1 | pen: nvm hehe i was just asking if it was an icon or something else but you already answered it | 07:48 |
| pen | ani1: oh :\ | 07:48 |
| Gottaname | geez, everyone is entitled to their own opinion | 07:48 |
| crackerjackz | armyman007 your card is D-Link AirPlus DWL-520 ? | 07:48 |
| pen | ani1: deviantart rulez | 07:49 |

| gd1 | "Buffer I/O error on device sda2, logical block ........." | 07:49 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: can you download the package? | 07:50 |
| ArmyMan007 | this looks right... | 07:50 |
| ArmyMan007 | http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&q=IEEE+802.11g+Wireless+Cardbus+/+PCI+Adapter&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wi | 07:50 |

| Kama | second try | 07:51 |
| Twan | How long does it take to rebuild the database when I do a sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop from the cmd line | 07:51 |
| ArmyMan007 | crackerjackz -> this looks right... | 07:51 |
| Gottaname | gd1: kernel panic? | 07:51 |
| Kama | can someone help me to get java running wit firefos? | 07:51 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, its very tedious to build all dependencies for the three sets | 07:51 |
| Kama | with fire fox | 07:51 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: hm | 07:51 |
| crackerjackz | back | 07:51 |
| NarbeH | Kama: : Add ons | 07:51 |

| ArmyMan007 | crackerjackz -> this card... | 07:51 |
| ArmyMan007 | crackerjackz -> yes | 07:51 |
| Gottaname | sounds to me like you have a hardware problem | 07:51 |
| tritium | !java | Kama | 07:51 |
| ubotu | Kama: 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) | 07:51 |
| Shubbar | can someone help me with this sound problem? | 07:52 |
| Kama | narb, not to be foreward, but i have a keen sence of the obvious! | 07:52 |
| gd1 | Gottaname: problems hard to diagnose, I would like to know if this error can set me into the right path | 07:52 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, so it would be easier if i get to know which package plays mp3 | 07:52 |
| Gottaname | last time I had a problem with it was because the harddisk had issues | 07:52 |
| Kama | tied it and it didnt work | 07:52 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: I remember there is only one for mp3 and other formats | 07:52 |
| sh4nk | having a slight problem with twinview. got it configured using the seperatex like I want it configured, but for some reason on one desktop i have no title bars. any ideas on something I can do to fix that? | 07:52 |
| mmm4m5m | gd1: start with HDD diagnose | 07:52 |
| awmcclain | Any idea why, all of a sudden, I'm getting permission denied when I try to alter /etc/apt/source.list as root? | 07:52 |
| gd1 | what can it be? I get: -those errors at booting; -data corruption with RAID 0 arrays; -data desincronization with RAID 1 arrays | 07:52 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: others are for video codecs | 07:52 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, which one is tat??? | 07:52 |
| tritium | Kama: which didn't work? | 07:52 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, is it the good??? | 07:52 |
| gd1 | mmm4m5m: SeaTools told me all HDDs are 100% OK (complete test) | 07:52 |
| gd1 | I'm desperate | 07:53 |
| Kama | which? java does not work | 07:53 |
| gd1 | cables? conficts? | 07:53 |
| Gottaname | did you wipe them? | 07:53 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: it's called GStreamer extra plugins | 07:53 |
| crackerjackz | armyman007 if you run the commands that dm-madman told you to run | 07:53 |
| ArmyMan007 | gd1 -> me too... let's uninstall Ubuntu... :-( | 07:53 |
| tritium | Kama: yes it does. The package you need is sun-java6-plugin | 07:53 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: from the ugly set | 07:53 |
| gd1 | ArmyMan007: ? | 07:53 |
| Kama | I have that | 07:53 |
| Shubbar | i am using usb speakers | 07:53 |
| ArmyMan007 | crackerjackz _> could you repet those commands? | 07:53 |
| gd1 | Gottaname: wipe? | 07:53 |
| crackerjackz | uhhh | 07:53 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, so i would need to build the whole of ugly ones?? | 07:53 |
| Gottaname | yeah | 07:54 |
| gd1 | why? | 07:54 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: if you want to also play mpeg or divx etc, you should install GStreamer ffmpeg video plugin | 07:54 |
| Gottaname | most probably your harddisk is improperly formatted | 07:54 |
| ArmyMan007 | crackerjackz -> and where can I find the "lspci" text? | 07:54 |
| Shubbar | i need help with the sound | 07:54 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: let me check | 07:54 |
| gd1 | it is notf formatted, in fact | 07:54 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, for right now i jus need mp3 | 07:54 |
| Gottaname | I fixed my problem by doing some extensive wiping and formatting | 07:54 |
| gd1 | I "unformatted" them (removing all partitions) | 07:54 |
| Gottaname | you need to do proper formatting | 07:54 |
| dwm-eee | greetungs all | 07:54 |
| gd1 | low level??? | 07:54 |
| Gottaname | yeah | 07:55 |
| Gottaname | :P | 07:55 |
| crackerjackz | armyman007 type this in your terminal window lspci > lspci.txt | 07:55 |
| Gottaname | go and get boot tools | 07:55 |
| FloodBot1 | Gottaname: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 07:55 |
| gd1 | but... | 07:55 |
| ArmyMan007 | crackerjackz -> and where can I find the "lspci" text? | 07:55 |
| Gottaname | important data? | 07:55 |
| gd1 | no no | 07:55 |
| gd1 | no data at all | 07:55 |
| Gottaname | then? | 07:55 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, hey will fluendo work??? | 07:55 |
| tritium | ArmyMan007: in lspci.txt, where you redirected the output of lspci | 07:55 |
| gd1 | but...will it solve RAID 0 corruption problems? | 07:55 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: hm | 07:55 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: no | 07:55 |
| Gottaname | you are trying to use RAID? | 07:55 |
| crackerjackz | army man | 07:55 |
| dwm-eee | when i type "apt-get update" i get a "W: GPG error: http://unicap-imaging.org feisty Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 97AD981E2B8A9519 W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems" message | 07:55 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, tats a mp3 decoder... | 07:56 |
| ArmyMan007 | tritium -> I've never redirected it anywhere... | 07:56 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: try search ugly and type G | 07:56 |
| gd1 | Gottaname: that's nother part of the problem | 07:56 |
| tritium | ArmyMan007: yes, you did, with the lscpi > lspsi.txt command | 07:56 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: well, mine doesn't use that one | 07:56 |
| crackerjackz | armyman007 if you could get internet on that computer would make this all easier | 07:56 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, i want .deb | 07:56 |
| gd1 | Gottaname: another symptom of that PC | 07:56 |
| mmm4m5m | gm1: it is saying raid problems. I have only small windows experience with raid. But usually when raid get unsync, it is recovering after an hour or so. windows boot normally without issues (it was not software raid). I do not know what linux do when raid problems/errors are found. | 07:56 |
| crackerjackz | why do you try plugging that computer directly to the modem | 07:56 |
| Gottaname | hmmm | 07:56 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: easy, just redownload and check only download | 07:56 |
| tritium | ArmyMan007: the ">" redirects the output of lspci to a file, rather than standard output | 07:57 |
| ArmyMan007 | luckylin -> I have 3 cards names... | 07:57 |
| Gottaname | I suggest you don't use raid | 07:57 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, couldnt get u | 07:57 |
| Kama | ok lets try a different problem I have | 07:57 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: check the one you want | 07:57 |
| ArmyMan007 | tritium -> I have 3 cards names if that's what you wanted me to show you... | 07:57 |
| crackerjackz | the only one that matters armyman007 is thta wireless one | 07:57 |
| crackerjackz | the other two are your ethernet | 07:57 |
| Gottaname | usually sadly if it doesn't work out for you | 07:57 |
| Kama | firefox closes every time i try to open preferences | 07:57 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: reinstall then check download only | 07:57 |
| gd1 | Gottaname: yes but the fact that raid does not work at all | 07:57 |
| Gottaname | you might have to try other distros | 07:57 |
| tritium | ArmyMan007: no, I was simply explaining something to you | 07:57 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, using synaptic... | 07:57 |
| ArmyMan007 | crackerjackz -> and you want me to know what's the name? | 07:57 |
| gd1 | because of corruption | 07:57 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: then you should be able to get the deb from the /var/cache/apt I think | 07:57 |
| ani1 | Kama: try using -safe-mode or the -ProfileManager and create a new profile | 07:57 |
| luckylin | ArmyMan007, what is your wireless cards name? | 07:58 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: or somewhere else | 07:58 |
| crackerjackz | armyman007 try hooking that other computer directly to your cable modem | 07:58 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, but the other system is 7.04 and am on 7.10 | 07:58 |
| Gottaname | gd1: are you using an onboard raid? | 07:58 |
| crackerjackz | so that it will have internet | 07:58 |
| Kama | how do i start safe mode? | 07:58 |
| dwm-eee | can anyone help me? | 07:58 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: hm | 07:58 |
| crackerjackz | you do have an irc client on the ubuntu computer right? | 07:58 |
| ani1 | Kama: firefox -safe-mode | 07:58 |
| gd1 | Gottaname: yes | 07:58 |

| Gottaname | are you using hardware or software raid? | 07:58 |
| Gottaname | depends on some distros | 07:59 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, yeah am doin tat..are u sure tat it plays mp3?? | 07:59 |

| Gottaname | that's one weird motherboard you have there. | 07:59 |

| ddalton | my battery level on my laptop | 07:59 |
| hischild | dwm-eee, if it's simple, then just ask | 07:59 |

| gd1 | Gottaname: motherboard. I see | 07:59 |
| ani1 | Kama: do this from terminal it will open firefox allowing you to offload extensions and such | 07:59 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: I think so because that's the only one checked | 07:59 |
| tritium | dwm-eee: that's not an official repo | 07:59 |
| mmm4m5m | :) | 07:59 |
| dwm-eee | how do i fix that? | 08:00 |
| gd1 | couldn't it be a buggy PCI device??? | 08:00 |
| Kama | that didnt mean anything to me | 08:00 |
| gd1 | Is suspect of a TV card | 08:00 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, :) already checked it out | 08:00 |
| Kama | i tried it in terminal, having the keen sense of the obvious that I do | 08:00 |
| Kama | and it didnt do a thing | 08:00 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: how about this page? https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/musicvideophotos/C/codecs.html | 08:00 |
| vinayy1 | I upgraded gutsy to hardy and boot seems to be a bit slow. | 08:00 |
| Gottaname | gd1: basic troubleshooting is to remove any components which you think is causing the problem and then try again | 08:00 |
| arvind_khadri | pen.hey got it its ugly only!! | 08:00 |
| ani1 | Kama: hmm man firefox will show that this is how safe mode works...if not try a new profile by using -ProfileManager | 08:00 |
| gd1 | what do you think? a stupid PCI TV card can cause those problems | 08:00 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: yep | 08:01 |
| dwm-eee | way to not help :'( | 08:01 |
| arvind_khadri | pen,would need to build the whole thing | 08:01 |
| vinayy1 | is this a good place to discuss about hardy heron? | 08:01 |
| ani1 | vinayy1: no read the topic | 08:01 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: why? this is deb not source | 08:01 |
| tritium | vinayy1: no, #ubuntu+1 | 08:01 |
| ani1 | !hardy > vinayy1 | 08:01 |
| vinayy1 | tritium: thanks | 08:01 |
| gd1 | Gottaname: ?? | 08:01 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, i would need the other dependencies too | 08:01 |
| pen | vinayy1: join channel ubuntu+1 | 08:01 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: I don't think so | 08:01 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: the package contains the codecs for GStreamer to use | 08:02 |
| Gottaname | gd1: try removing the TV tuner card | 08:02 |
| justin007827 | how do I list available chat chanels? | 08:02 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: there is no dependencies I think | 08:02 |
| gd1 | Gottaname: but... CAN IT BE? :) | 08:02 |
| Gottaname | and leave in a single harddisk | 08:02 |
| Gottaname | and then try | 08:02 |
| gd1 | OK got it | 08:02 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, from there i need to get other .debs too which are dependent | 08:02 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: I suggest you only install gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly | 08:02 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, yeah tat only depends on lots of other libs :) | 08:03 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: do you mean you don't even have movie player or Rhythmbox set up? | 08:03 |
| Gottaname | if only people in this channel helped gd1 instead of calling me a troll | 08:04 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: I thought those come with 7.04... | 08:04 |
| Gottaname | then maybe I wouldn't have such a bad impression of ubuntu | 08:04 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, i have all those as default but other libs like libxml and libraw need to be setup | 08:04 |
| tritium | Gottaname: most are helping. You're complaining. | 08:04 |
| Dr_willis | guess he showed us! | 08:05 |
| mmm4m5m | Gottaname found a job for gd1 during this weekend... I hate all hardware related problems (still new in linux) | 08:05 |
| hischild | mmm4m5m, i had a lot of hardware trouble with it so far, but it's nothing compared to windows. | 08:05 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: are u sure? | 08:06 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, shall i download the whole source | 08:06 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: all those threads I have seen don't ever said mp3 need that | 08:06 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: no, just one package | 08:07 |
| cesurasean | heh always a funny thing when you hack your old companies mail servers. | 08:07 |
| mmm4m5m | hischild: someone said the bad word starting with 'W'. Long time I did try to setup some more secure windows environment (desktop). Now I give up. Linux looks very promising | 08:07 |
| cesurasean | idiots for not changing the password | 08:07 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, yeah the source for ugly set | 08:07 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, http://packages.ubuntu.com/source/feisty/gst-plugins-ugly0.10 | 08:07 |
| tritium | cesurasean: don't discuss that here, please. Also note that this channel is logged. | 08:07 |
| cesurasean | LOL | 08:07 |
| crackerjackz | http://rafb.net/p/ua2FBE11.html | 08:07 |
| cesurasean | I never said I did anything, personally. :D | 08:08 |
| crackerjackz | thats armymans lspci | 08:08 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: I see | 08:08 |
| mmm4m5m | hischild: linux could have his problems, kind of "everything is separate modules, sometimes there are issues", but at least things are flexible and possible. Windows - you have what you got, no options | 08:08 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: well, usually those dependencies are installed | 08:08 |
| dwm09 | how do i delete a directory in terminal? | 08:08 |
| hischild | mmm4m5m, if you want to do something funny, try to install xp on a pc that has a broken acpi | 08:08 |
| Dr_willis | dwm09, rmdir, or rm -rf dirname | 08:09 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: but if you are not sure, then you can go back your 7.04 and try apt-get command to get the dependencies of your system | 08:09 |
| pen | but | 08:09 |
| hischild | mmm4m5m, that's what i had a while ago. You can disable it during install, during first boot, but after the first update, it'll go blue | 08:09 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: if you raelly want to download the source | 08:09 |
| dwm09 | how do i delete a directory with files in it? | 08:09 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: type this in your terminal | 08:09 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, say | 08:10 |
| mmm4m5m | hischild : :), so you survive until second boot | 08:10 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: sudo apt-get source gst-plugins-ugly0.10 | 08:10 |
| hischild | mmm4m5m, pretty much ... | 08:10 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, tat would work in 7.04 too?? | 08:10 |
| mmm4m5m | hischild : what about try multi user environment in windows and do compare | 08:10 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: the command will download source archives | 08:11 |
| dwm09 | how do i delete a directory with files in it? | 08:11 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, would tat get me the dependencies too?? | 08:11 |
| tritium | dwm09: rm -rf <dirname> | 08:11 |
| Boohbah | dwm09: rm -rd directory | 08:11 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: no that probably will require another command | 08:11 |
| Boohbah | rf, rf! | 08:11 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, hmm wats tat?? | 08:11 |
| tritium | arvind_khadri: you've seen the mp3 info from ubotu, right? | 08:12 |
| tritium | !mp3 > arvind_khadri | 08:12 |
| hischild | mmm4m5m, i know ... i use my main box as a server like enviroment for a project i'm head coder off ... it's the main linux compile platform ... installing openssh-server was enough, they can ssh in perfectly ... but with windows it's nearly not possible | 08:12 |
| arvind_khadri | !mp3 | 08:12 |
| ubotu | For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats | 08:12 |
| dwm09 | anyone know how to install alienarena? | 08:12 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: how far is your 7.04 from yours using right now? | 08:12 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, jus a few mins of walk | 08:13 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: then why can't it connect to internet? | 08:13 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, as there is no internet at his house | 08:13 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: oh | 08:13 |
| tritium | arvind_khadri: *some* mp3s also require you to have w32codecs installed | 08:13 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: ok, just install gst-plugins-ugly0.10 first on your friend's computer then type sudo apt-get check | 08:14 |
| Dr_willis | i dont recall ever seeing that tritium but i alwyas have w32codecs installed anyway. :) so i may just never noticed. | 08:14 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, i think it would be better if i get the system to my house and build it | 08:15 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, or i myself should install 7.04 | 08:15 |
| tritium | Dr_willis: nor had I until recently: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/MP3 | 08:15 |
| Dr_willis | tritium, almost sounds like some spyware-stuff. :) time to check it ouyt! | 08:15 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: you don't have to actually | 08:15 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, yeah i know tat,well then i would need to get all dependencies set for ugly | 08:16 |
| mmm4m5m | hischild : before I switch to linux (still have my old windows in virtual box) I fill my windows with openvpn, openssh, open this open that... it become almost linux :). Then I got almost crazy (Jan this year) looking for nice virus/firewall software. All these produce different results... and the definition "unknown virus" is simply stupid :). I am not afraid of well known viruses :). | 08:16 |
| Dr_willis | tritium, Hmm.. it makes a statement.. but dosent explain why.... | 08:16 |
| hullap | hi can anyone recommend me an iso maker and burner | 08:16 |
| tritium | Dr_willis: no, but I was helping someone here recently, and having ubuntu-restricted-extras was not enough. He grabbed w32codecs, like it says there, and he was good to go. | 08:17 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: I think there is an alternatives | 08:17 |
| ani1 | hullap: k3b growisofs :) | 08:17 |
| waylandbill | Is it possible to create a user and make it unable to have any sort of network access? | 08:17 |
| hullap | ani1, thnx | 08:17 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, so please share it | 08:17 |
| Dr_willis | tritium, id like to verified that.. and gotten the mp3 he was using. | 08:17 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: it doesn't have GUI if it's ok wiht your friend | 08:17 |
| Dr_willis | tritium, because somthing about that does not make sence. | 08:18 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, well we jus need the codecs | 08:18 |
| Scientus | >i killed my mbr with qemu and now i am having trouble getting grub reinstalled. ubuntu live 7.04 could recognize my drive ad i could mount it but grub wont recognize my partition formatting, and super grub disk doesnt reconize the formatting of my ext3 and wont booot it, but the live cd could see all the files and i open up my grub menu.1st and stuff any idea on getting grub working again??? | 08:18 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, we have totem and stuff | 08:18 |
| ani1 | hullap: as far as making iso use mkisofs | 08:18 |
| tritium | Dr_willis: agreed, *shrug* | 08:18 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: the linux command line to play mp3 is mpg123 | 08:18 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: you don't need to install any codecs | 08:18 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: I think | 08:19 |
| hullap | anil, thnx again :) | 08:19 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, mpg123 with the foo | 08:19 |
| ani1 | hullap: np | 08:19 |
| Dr_willis | tritium, that might be better off with a disclaimer in that wiki - from what ive seen in the w32codecs pack. theres no mp3 codecs or related stuff in there at all. | 08:19 |
| hischild | mmm4m5m, yes that's so true ... | 08:20 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, tat command needs package mpg123 | 08:20 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: yes, and you only need that | 08:20 |
| Jobias | hey, does anyone know how to tell if you're currently running a 64-bit version of linux from the command line? | 08:20 |
| kelvin911 | hi | 08:20 |
| kelvin911 | terminal server client dont allow me to enter password? | 08:21 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, i would need both then 123 and 321,are they same for 7.04 and 7.10 | 08:21 |
| kelvin911 | i try to conect VNC but cant enter password | 08:21 |
| tritium | Jobias: uname -a should say | 08:21 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: actually you would only need one of them | 08:21 |
| Dr_willis | kelvin911, disable compiz | 08:21 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: they are the same thing | 08:21 |
| waylandbill | It would appear iptables can block packets for a certain user. Is there a gui front-end that can set this up, or do I have to do it manually? | 08:21 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: I use 123 because I think it's easy to type | 08:21 |
| Kuroachia | Quick question, hopefully not too silly. I plan on setting up a dualboot box tomorrow and I wanted to set up a partition that both ubuntu and XP would recognize to store files | 08:21 |
| Dr_willis | kelvin911, theres some bugs with compiz and a few programs. I forget the work arounds. | 08:21 |
| arvind_khadri | pen,:) so it would work in 7.04 also | 08:22 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, shall i get its source?? | 08:22 |
| Jobias | tritium: thanks! | 08:22 |
| Kuroachia | question being, what style partition will the two OS's both recognize | 08:22 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: yes, because this is for linux not targeted for specific distro | 08:22 |
| tritium | Jobias: what did it say? | 08:22 |
| kelvin911 | what? | 08:22 |
| Scientus | fat32 | 08:22 |
| kelvin911 | it allows me to enter password b4 | 08:22 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: well, course you can | 08:22 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: :) | 08:22 |
| Scientus | kuroachia | 08:22 |
| DistroJockey | Kuroachia: FAT32 | 08:22 |
| rooooot | I have an Ubuntu 6.0.6 LTS Server Edition, an "locale" says that it runs at POSIX. But I need to run it at de_DE UTF8. Can you help me? | 08:23 |
| Scientus | or ntfs | 08:23 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: or deb?? maybe | 08:23 |
| Scientus | now with ntfs-3g | 08:23 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, apt-get source right | 08:23 |
| kelvin911 | but when i try to connect 2nd server it doesnt allow me to enter | 08:23 |
| Jobias | tritium: Linux xxxxxxx 2.6.16.57 #2 SMP Tue Dec 18 16:01:57 MST 2007 i686 athlon-4 i386 GNU/Linux | 08:23 |
| Jobias | tritium: i think that means it's 32-bit? | 08:23 |
| Kuroachia | scientus: ok thanks, I would prefer ntfs over fat32 just so long as you're sure both OS's will recognize it heh | 08:23 |
| tritium | Jobias: yes | 08:23 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: yes | 08:23 |
| Jobias | tritium: ok. thanks :) | 08:23 |
| Brent | testing :p | 08:24 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: sudo apt-get source mpg123 | 08:24 |

| justin007827 | anyone ever used "Xen" to build a virtual machine? | 08:31 |
| Brent | Svenstaro__:, I typed wine then the application name, but its a game with lots of data and .dll files... it didnt want to load when i pressed 'start game' | 08:31 |
| gpm | !anyone | 08:31 |
| ubotu | 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? | 08:31 |
| Jafet | Is /sys a virtual directory? | 08:31 |
| Svenstaro__ | Brent, what are you trying to load? | 08:32 |
| Brent | um.. its a game called phantasy star online..lol | 08:32 |
| maxownz | is there a quick fix for my 'sudo' to have stopped working? | 08:32 |
| taboo` | question | 08:32 |
| Starnestommy | Jafet: I think it is | 08:32 |
| Jafet | maxownz, how exactly has it Stopped Working? | 08:32 |
| Svenstaro__ | Brent, please note that wine even tho it is great, it isnt perfect, not all your stuff will work | 08:32 |
| taboo` | i cant boot ubuntu on my laptop | 08:32 |

| taboo` | can anyone help ? | 08:32 |
| Svenstaro__ | Brent, google for "wine apps" and check the database | 08:32 |
| Brent | ah ok, thank you | 08:33 |
| Svenstaro__ | !ask | taboo` | 08:33 |
| ubotu | taboo`: 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. :-) | 08:33 |
| crackerjackz | is any one here familuar with xubuntu? | 08:33 |
| tritium | maxownz: you're using your user's password? | 08:33 |
| crackerjackz | with gnome gui installed | 08:33 |
| taboo` | Laughing Out Loud :) | 08:33 |
| taboo` | smart :) | 08:33 |
| maxownz | tritium: the dialog box to ask for the password doesn't even come up | 08:33 |
| Kama | i am having problems with firefox closing | 08:33 |
| Jafet | maxownz, your user must have admin permissions, I suppose. | 08:33 |
| tritium | maxownz: what about for cli stuff? | 08:34 |
| maxownz | it does | 08:34 |
| maxownz | cli? | 08:34 |
| tritium | command line, maxownz | 08:34 |

| gpm | !ask|Djmack | 08:38 |

| Djmack | well i did | 08:38 |
| osama | something like http://localhost/phpmyadmin | 08:38 |
| Djmack | and i got no response | 08:38 |
| Djmack | anyway my question is basicly asking how i set up my Evolution Mail to send and recieve my Gmail | 08:39 |
| gpm | "setting up email" isn't a very interesting question, could you be more specific? | 08:39 |
| maxownz | here's what comes up when i try to go to System -> Administration -> Users and Groups http://img151.imageshack.us/img151/7725/screenshotwz4.png | 08:39 |

| Djmack | ... | 08:39 |
| taboo` | damn | 08:39 |

| kayess | I'm a bit of an Ubuntu noob, but I'm about to buy the parts to make a new server which I plan to install Ubuntu on. How do people feel about installing ubuntu on a RAID-5 array? | 08:40 |
| hischild | Djmack, when i asked "My pc crashes on boot" i got no reply.... when i asked "My pc won't boot and i tried to use noapic and did this and that and windows crashes" and gave more info i got a reply straight away ... took 10 hours to fix but it got done .... formulate a question properly and you'll get an answer much more likely and faster | 08:40 |
| gpm | rooooot: also /etc/default/locale | 08:40 |
| osama | kayess: been there, done that ... | 08:40 |
| rooooot | gpm: Oh, I have encountered a problem | 08:41 |

| kayess | osama: It work out OK? I was just wondering if it would be better to install hte OS on a separate IDE drive, or maybe I should just put the swap space on that? | 08:41 |
| Djmack | Enable POP3 in my Gmail account? or in my evolution mail? | 08:41 |

| osama | kayess: works great ... Dell Poweredge, it sees it as one Hard disk... | 08:42 |
| DAMMM | navilon: sftp, comes with ssh | 08:42 |
| Dr_willis | navilon, how big a file? you could use the 'sshfs' tool as an easy way to get a shared directory going | 08:42 |
| hischild | navilon, as suggested: use sftp .... | 08:42 |
| gpm | rooooot: are there any locale settings in .bashrc or .profile for root or normal user? | 08:42 |
| osama | rooooot: don't use the root user ? | 08:42 |
| Yazan- | hey, i believe I'm missing a package called libatml. Is it possible that i can download it from somewhere?? like ubuntu.com? | 08:43 |
| Goose1984 | Hi how do i get openGL working on ubuntu | 08:43 |
| kayess | osama: I've been looking at a gigabyte m/b. AFAIKT it should be compatible with ubuntu. It's hard matching hardware available here in Thailand with the compatibility lists :/ | 08:43 |
| colin__ | Hi all, just upgraded my laptop to hardy, now the iwl4965 wireless card doesn't seem to be recognized, and the iwl4965 kernel module can no longer be found. Anyone know how to solve this? | 08:43 |
| Goose1984 | is there a way to see if its enabled? | 08:43 |
| hischild | Yazan-, try to search in synaptic for it | 08:43 |
| rooooot | gpm: For root both exists, but I can't find any language data | 08:43 |
| gpm | and normal user? | 08:43 |
| Starnestommy | Yazan-: I think it's libatm1 with a one at the end | 08:43 |
| hischild | !hardy | colin__ | 08:43 |

| Strangelet | SKIM cannot detect any languages (the languages I have setup include English and Chinese), why is that? | 08:44 |

| colin__ | hischild, got it, thanks | 08:44 |
| Perseux | !tunnel | 08:44 |

| kayess | osama: Good point. Wonder if I can find something that can monitor the ich9r controller... | 08:45 |
| gpm | rooooot: oh so only root is a problem now? | 08:45 |
| rooooot | gpm: In /etc/default/ there is no file locale | 08:46 |
| rooooot | gpm: Yes thats right | 08:46 |

| gpm | rooooot: yes if you haven't | 08:48 |
| anaoum | how is ubuntu's power management on laptops compared with wondows xp? | 08:49 |
| kn1sli | reason im asking is because the name is set to "sda1" And I would like to rename to windows xp. | 08:49 |
| gpm | anaoum: better | 08:49 |
| anaoum | so my battery will last longer on ubuntu than xp? | 08:50 |
| kn1sli | maybe! | 08:50 |
| hischild | anaoum, it gave me 50% increase so i think that's a yes | 08:50 |
| Djmack | wow | 08:50 |
| Dr_willis | kn1sli, i Normally boot to windows and give the windows drive a proper label name from Xp. | 08:50 |
| gpm | kn1sli: /etc/exports | 08:50 |
| Djmack | xp uses that much power? | 08:50 |
| hischild | anaoum, i went from under 2 to almost 3 hours | 08:50 |
| sdh | woah i'm not so sure | 08:50 |
| rooooot | gpm: Has no effect, but maybe it is because root uses a different bash? | 08:50 |
| sdh | more tests i have ever seen, mainly on thinkpads, suggest xp is usually better than linux for battery life | 08:51 |
| gpm | rooooot: yeah i dunno. why did you enable root? isn't it off by default? | 08:51 |
| anaoum | hmmm, mixed answers here | 08:51 |
| gpm | anaoum: yeah you should stick with windows | 08:51 |
| taboo` | ppl | 08:51 |
| anaoum | lol | 08:52 |
| rooooot | gpm: yes thats of, but I dont wanna type sudo every time, so you can take "sudo -i", than its like root | 08:52 |
| taboo` | like i said...cant boot on my laptop.....damn.....MSI VR610X-017EU | 08:52 |
| sdh | anaoum: what laptop | 08:52 |
| anaoum | thinkpad t61 | 08:52 |
| gpm | rooooot: aha! but it's not really an account | 08:52 |
| sdh | anaoum: i'm using thinkpad x61s, works fine - try it | 08:52 |
| osama | anybody know subversion? I asked a q on #svn a while ago with no reply, I need to remove all traces of all files of certain extensions from an svn repository... (it's getting HUGE - maybe with svndumpfilter?) | 08:52 |
| anaoum | sdh: im already running ubuntu | 08:52 |
| rooooot | gpm: Yes, or its that Ubuntu locked account, | 08:52 |
| sdh | anaoum: sorry perhaps i misunderstood your question | 08:52 |
| Goose1984 | how do i get openGL working on ubuntu | 08:52 |
| anaoum | ive just never tried xp on it, so i was wondering if that will giver better life | 08:53 |
| rooooot | gpm: my account has an Superuser bit or something | 08:53 |
| gpm | rooooot: well so why does it matter? POSIX should be fine for whatever you need to do with root | 08:53 |
| kayess | osama, thanks. This seems to have loads of information for me pore over: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto :) | 08:53 |
| kn1sli | gpm: there's no file called "export"? | 08:53 |
| gpm | exports, i mean? | 08:53 |
| gpm | yes, exports | 08:53 |
| sdh | anaoum: probably... last time i tried gutsy vs xp i got better life in xp (and used linux in a vm)... but i dislike windows and prefer the transparency of linux, which was worth more to me than the difference in battery life | 08:53 |
| rooooot | gpm: I think you are right, maybe this is for security and compatability reasons | 08:54 |
| kn1sli | i tried that as well with the "s" | 08:54 |
| Dr_willis | /etc/exports is used by the nfs stuff. I recall | 08:54 |
| Dr_willis | !nfs | 08:54 |
| ubotu | nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS. | 08:54 |
| gpm | kn1sli: you have an nfs server installed? | 08:54 |
| gpm | haha | 08:54 |
| gpm | or read the wiki | 08:54 |
| anaoum | anyone here used solaris? | 08:54 |
| gpm | Dr_willis fts | 08:54 |
| gpm | w | 08:54 |
| sdh | anaoum: yes | 08:54 |
| gpm | me, no | 08:54 |
| kn1sli | no | 08:54 |
| anaoum | sun seem to go on about how it is better than linux | 08:54 |
| anaoum | but i dont see it | 08:54 |
| tux97 | !ubuntu gusty repos | 08:55 |
| gpm | kn1sli: you need an nfs server to share with nfs | 08:55 |
| sdh | anaoum: oh really? i don't recall solaris x86 working well on laptops and i've only ever seen one sparc laptop | 08:55 |
| osama | anaoum: nothing is better than ubuntu :) | 08:55 |
| anaoum | yeh | 08:55 |
| tux97 | where do u find the repos at? | 08:55 |
| anaoum | i tried installing solaris on my desktop | 08:55 |
| Dr_willis | !repos | 08:55 |

| kalatian | Yazan-: try sudo apt-get install -f | 09:07 |
| isplicer | thanks | guys | 09:07 |
| gpm | ani1: nice, you didn't make that one did you? | 09:08 |
| ani1 | no | 09:08 |
| rewati | kalatian http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/61442/ | 09:08 |
| coderXX | ani1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToJACKConfiguration :) thnx | 09:08 |
| KalEl | i do everything i want with it, KTorrent has a comprehensive preferences setting, supports NAT, DHT etc, and also has a command line interface | 09:08 |
| isplicer | how do you get the thing where the persons name comes in the beginning? Like "isplicer: do this...." | 09:08 |
| kalatian | rewati: are you *sure* that its /dev/sda8? | 09:08 |
| Yazan- | kalatian: I will have to reboot into ubuntu AGAIN and try your command. Maybe it'll work and maybe not, cause i really doubt it ;( | 09:08 |
| gpm | isplicer: start typing and push tab | 09:08 |
| ani1 | KalEl: i agree it imported my massive ban ip list its upwards of 500,000 and its the _ONLY_ prog i like that has all the features | 09:08 |
| kalatian | isplicer: type the first few letters, then hit tab ;) | 09:08 |
| kalatian | Yazan-: good luck :) | 09:08 |
| dwm09 | whats a program that can display system info? | 09:09 |
| ntolo | Is there anything close to photoshop for linux ? | 09:09 |
| rewati | ya its root /dev/sda8 as root partition of gentoo | 09:09 |
| isplicer | kalatian, thanks | 09:09 |
| Dr_willis | dwm09, lots of them. I like conky. | 09:09 |
| isplicer | awesome! | 09:09 |
| isplicer | lol | 09:09 |
| Dr_willis | dwm09, gkrellm also is nice | 09:09 |
| rewati | kalatian ya its root /dev/sda8 as root partition of gentoo | 09:09 |
| kalatian | rewati: its better to use the uuid of the partion | 09:09 |
| gpm | ntolo: gimp :/ | 09:09 |
| kalatian | rewati: you have multiple drives in that machine? | 09:09 |
| ani1 | dwm09: hal-device-manager | 09:09 |
| ere4si | dwm09: there's gdesklets as well | 09:09 |
| Dr_willis | !info sysinfo | 09:09 |
| rewati | kalatian how can i get that | 09:09 |
| ere4si | !lag | 09:10 |
| ubotu | You have lag, I don't have lag | 09:10 |
| KalEl | yeah... i was only considering movig away from it because i had to control the client through ssh session, then i discovered the hidden command line shell "ktshell" that uses DCOP to connect to it | 09:10 |
| ntolo | gpm: But with GIMP is hard to make 3D shapes. | 09:10 |
| Yazan- | by the way, when the ubuntu starting loader starts to load, is it normally that the "Ubuntu" word is really dark? | 09:10 |
| gpm | ntolo: unfortunately it's the best out there for linux. you can try running ps with wine | 09:10 |
| kalatian | rewati: you can cd to /dev/disk/by-uuid and then ls -ahl to get a list of uuids that correspond to each device | 09:10 |
| rewati | kalatian no i have laptop its single drive | 09:10 |
| kalatian | rewati: you have any flash drives, external hard drives, camera cards plugged in? | 09:11 |
| kalatian | on gentoo it could be /dev/hda too, but I doubt it | 09:11 |
| rewati | kalatian no | 09:11 |
| rewati | kalatian is uuid looks like this 13672761-8616-4d48-9dac-eb356d303c25 | 09:12 |
| kalatian | rewati: yep | 09:13 |
| kalatian | so just replace /dev/sda8 with /dev/disk/by-uuid/1367.....c25 | 09:13 |
| kalatian | then it will always use the right drive | 09:13 |
| rewati | kalatian i did this is that ok | 09:14 |
| rewati | root=UUID=13672761-8616-4d48-9dac-eb356d303c25 | 09:14 |
| anaoum | what makes ubuntu better than debian apart from hardware support by enabling restricted drivers? | 09:14 |
| kalatian | rewati: that might work too :) | 09:14 |
| rewati | ok | 09:14 |
| arvind_khadri | pen, u there?? | 09:14 |
| kalatian | rewati: that's how ubuntu does it, right? | 09:14 |

| anaoum | nonix4: u mean tasksel? | 09:17 |

| pen | arvind_khadri: well | 09:19 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: all you need is two files | 09:19 |
| pen | arvind_khadri: why do you bother to list the dependencies? | 09:19 |
| rewati | kalatian it didnt work :( | 09:19 |

| mikikol10 | Somebody would be able to link a picture for me it ubuntu8.10? | 09:22 |

| void^ | bullgard4: but "varrun" is not a filesystem, much like 10.1.1.100:/exports or /dev/sda7 aren't filesystem types. | 10:02 |

| Yazan- | I have gone through every tutorial on how to use speedtouch with ubuntu and each one of them failed. It simply just wont connect to the internet. No idea why. Only problem with ubuntu is that it doesn't support .exe files to be open. | 10:04 |
| anaoum | !fluxbox | carlzenox | 10:05 |
| ubotu | carlzenox: fluxbox is a lightweight and responsive window manager for GNU/Linux. For how to set it up and more information see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fluxbox | 10:05 |
| hischild | Yazan-, you have to use windows to get it setup initially (or use vbox, that also works) and then you can use ubuntu | 10:05 |

| Smegzor | If I type gksu shares-admin after entering my password nothing comes up. This used to be in my Administration menu (Shared Folders) but its vanished. What program am I missing and how do I get it back? | 10:54 |
| geirha | SIRavecavec: and you edited it as root (with sudo) ? | 10:55 |
| SIRavecavec | yes root | 10:55 |

| geirha | !yay | SIRavecavec | 10:57 |
| ubotu | SIRavecavec: Glad you made it! :-) | 10:57 |
| ani1 | Smegzor: i would assume nfs and samba | 10:57 |
| anaoum | !lol | 10:58 |
| ubotu | Please don't use "LOL" and "OMG" and so forth on a regular basis. This is IRC, not IM, and using those lines on their own is not required, and it is rather annoying to the rest of the people in the channel; thanks. | 10:58 |
| SIRavecavec | geirha, this is in one pc, i have another problem | 10:58 |
| anaoum | !omg | 10:58 |
| Smegzor | the menu items vanished after a Samba update (as far as I can tell) | 10:58 |
| Smegzor | I have Samba but not nfs. I'll install nfs now. | 10:58 |

| Smegzor | ani1: which nfs do I need from synaptic? common, kernel, or user ? | 10:59 |
| anaoum | ani1: sorry for my two commands :P | 10:59 |
| Cew27 | hey people is there anyway i can install 64 bit ubuntu with out loosing all my apps and settings | 10:59 |
| ani1 | Smegzor: couldn't tell 'ya | 10:59 |
| ompaul | !nfs | Smegzor | 11:00 |
| ubotu | Smegzor: nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS. | 11:00 |

| fnd | hi there - any recommendations for a diff viewer? I've tried Meld and Kompare, but they're not really satisfying (e.g. no highlighting of in-line changes) | 11:02 |
| SIRavecavec | how to start from root to interface | 11:02 |
| ani1 | snowolf: works fine here | 11:02 |
| geirha | SIRavecavec: what do you mean? | 11:03 |
| Smegzor | winmerge does inline highlighting (its a windows app) | 11:03 |
| SIRavecavec | geirha, im using only txt interface and i want to start graph interface | 11:04 |
| fnd | Smegzor: I know - I used to use TortoiseSVN's brilliant diff viewer, but now I'm a Linux user :) | 11:04 |
| snowolf | ani1: then it means that chanserv has no ghost command ant it passes to server | 11:04 |
| ompaul | !root | SIRavecavec | 11:04 |
| ubotu | SIRavecavec: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 11:04 |
| Smegzor | I just installed kompare before. It looked good on lifehacker :P | 11:04 |
| xc_legend | hello | 11:04 |

| sriramoman | and how can i check how large the repo is? | 11:13 |
| paulowsky | SIRavecavec: you can enable it via "login window" preferences: system >administration > login window | 11:13 |
| paulowsky | SIRavecavec: the security tab. | 11:13 |
| SIRavecavec | paulowsky, that if i am logged in | 11:13 |

| isplicer | where can i find the conky config file? | 11:14 |
| paulowsky | SIRavecavec: reboot the machine, and select recovery mode at the grub prompt | 11:14 |
| isplicer | please help | 11:14 |
| Smegzor | fnd: :O you're right, it was mentioned on FOSSwire not LH. My misteak. | 11:15 |
| SIRavecavec | paulowsky, and than what? | 11:15 |
| snowolf | isplicer: on google :P ~/.conkyrc | 11:15 |
| paulowsky | SIRavecavec: do that, when it's done booting, I'll tell you what to do. | 11:15 |
| SIRavecavec | its also asking username and password | 11:15 |
| SIRavecavec | its done all booting now ask username and pass | 11:15 |

| isplicer | i dont get it | 11:16 |
| isplicer | i installed conky | 11:16 |
| isplicer | and i cant find the config file | 11:16 |
| isplicer | i am new to ubuntu, touched linux for first time today | 11:16 |
| fnd | Smegzor: I think what I'm missing is not so much in-line highlighting, but a unified/merged view (a single pane rather than two parallel ones) | 11:17 |
| ani1 | isplicer: ~/.conkyrc | 11:17 |
| fnd | isplicer: conky does not create a config file by default | 11:17 |
| Starnestommy | isplicer: you mught need to set the file browser to view hidden files by pressing ctrl+h | 11:17 |
| fnd | isplicer: the conky website has instructions - copy it from the template, then adjust it to your needs | 11:18 |
| isplicer | ohhh... i just ran this command zcat /usr/share/doc/conky/examples/conkyrc.sample.gz > ~/.conkyrc | 11:18 |
| Smegzor | Any idea why my wired network connection must be bumped (I edit the static ip) at every boot up to get me online? It was funny the first 20 times, but I'd quite like it to *ahem* 'just work'. | 11:18 |
| isplicer | thankyou, and sorry for my troll-ness | 11:18 |
| ani1 | isplicer: check out this thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=281865&highlight=conkyrc | 11:18 |
| paulowsky | SIRavecavec: sorry about that break. | 11:18 |
| isplicer | thanks anil bhai, will do | 11:19 |
| SIRavecavec | its ok paulowsky | 11:19 |
| paulowsky | SIRavecavec: press alt+ctrl+f1 | 11:19 |
| paulowsky | that should give you a virtual terminal | 11:19 |
| paulowsky | SIRavecavec: have you pressed alt+ctrl+f1 ? | 11:20 |
| isplicer | one more stupid question if its okay - if i run "conky" from the terminal, it closes once the terminal closes. How can i start conky properly? | 11:20 |
| isplicer | oh dw | 11:20 |
| isplicer | got it | 11:20 |
| isplicer | alt f2 | 11:20 |
| isplicer | =) | 11:20 |
| Dipingo | can't ping the Host machine | 11:20 |
| snowolf | isplicer: yeah, otherwise, just add a & to run it from terminal without it being closed with the terminal | 11:21 |

| xc_legend | i was i have disabled it and gone to default settings | 11:27 |
| Svenstaro | rhineheart_m, sure | 11:27 |
| Seven_Six_Two | xc_legend, what happened between having the icons and not having them? | 11:27 |
| Svenstaro | xc_legend, open a terminal and type metacity --replace | 11:27 |
| paulowsky | xc_legend: what's your issue again? I missed it (connection loss) | 11:28 |
| xc_legend | i rebooted | 11:28 |
| rhineheart_m | Svenstaro, so.. how secured is the filesystem of ubuntu? | 11:28 |
| Svenstaro | rhineheart_m, depends on whihc one you use, if you use the standard, ext3, its pretty safe | 11:28 |
| Seven_Six_Two | xc_legend, that's all? you didn't install, uninstall, crash a program, etc? | 11:29 |
| paulowsky | rhineheart_m: secured? or are you talking about "safe"? | 11:29 |
| Smegzor | something is wrong with my gnome-system-tools How do I repair it? apt-get remove followed by apt-get install ? | 11:29 |
| Svenstaro | Smegzor, what means "something" is wrong? | 11:29 |
| Doublenoob | Starnestommy: The port is 1863 | 11:29 |
| xc_legend | i crashed nautalis yesterday twice | 11:29 |
| rhineheart_m | Svenstaro, so.. how to know if I'm using ext3? | 11:29 |
| xc_legend | locked up killed it in htop | 11:29 |
| rhineheart_m | paulowsky, yeah.. safe | 11:29 |
| xc_legend | everything looked fine | 11:29 |
| paulowsky | Smegzor: sudo dpkg-reconfigure gnome-system-tools | 11:30 |
| Svenstaro | rhineheart_m, type "mount" you will see what kind of filesystems are mounted | 11:30 |
| Starnestommy | Doublenoob: it seems to be working for me | 11:30 |
| Smegzor | well its installed but I get this message The program 'shares-admin' is currently not installed. | 11:30 |
| paulowsky | rhineheart_m: I've never suffered any corruption while using ext3, which is the default. | 11:30 |
| Smegzor | thanks | 11:30 |
| xc_legend | this morning i rebooted and mouse will not work properly | 11:30 |
| Doublenoob | starnestommy: hmmmmm? | 11:30 |
| Svenstaro | rhineheart_m, do you mean safe as in "data redundancy" ? | 11:30 |
| rhineheart_m | paulowsky, how to know what ext type I'm using? | 11:30 |
| rhineheart_m | Svenstaro, might be | 11:30 |
| paulowsky | rhineheart_m: or using the gui, right-click the partition in "computer" and select properties, assuing you're using ubuntu 7.10 | 11:30 |
| Smegzor | hmm.. that didn't fix it :( | 11:31 |
| akro | k | 11:31 |
| Seven_Six_Two | xc_legend, please define "will not work properly". Is it jumpy, does your cursor not move, is your cursor gone | 11:31 |

| crayzee | I'm RAID-ing my computer (already have an Ubuntu install). When I try and boot root=/dev/md0, kernel messages go past as normal, but once it gets to "input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard as /class/..." it just stops. It has not panicked because pressing keys works, and I can still shift+page up/down. What could be wrong? | 11:31 |
| jpatrick | akro: /join #ubuntu-pl | 11:31 |
| xc_legend | middle click also gives no dialog on desktop | 11:32 |
| akro | ok | 11:32 |
| paulowsky | xc_legend: run "nautilus" in a terminal | 11:32 |
| xc_legend | sorry | 11:32 |
| jpatrick | Svenstaro: no, it just ignored multiple same request | 11:32 |
| rhineheart_m | arvind_khadri, is sudo cfdisk will tell me what ext type am I using? | 11:32 |
| xc_legend | ok | 11:32 |
| arvind_khadri | yeah it'll | 11:32 |
| Pupeno | I set the lid acpi event to not do anything, yet my laptop keeps freezing when I close the lid on X11 | 11:32 |
| Svenstaro | crayzee, there were problems on creating a RAID for the root partition, you might want to do it completely by hand or try hardy | 11:32 |
| Doublenoob | starnestommy: Thanks. I'll try to re-register and see if that works. I hate forms, they keep going wrong! | 11:33 |
| balle | i have shut down the VLC player, but it has not stopped playing music!? how do i bring it back | 11:33 |
| xc_legend | nautilis is up | 11:33 |
| Svenstaro | balle, type "killall vlc" | 11:33 |
| === evalles is now known as effie_jayx | ||
| crayzee | Svenstaro, I am doing it by hand. (I already had an install which I am trying to port over). Its my first RAID-root. | 11:33 |
| paulowsky | balle: use system monitor to kill vlc | 11:33 |
| paulowsky | balle: or do what Svenstaro said | 11:34 |
| balle | done thx | 11:34 |
| mutabi | *goes off to upgrade to Hardy& | 11:34 |
| xc_legend | also noticed that all of my desktop icons which were showing on my desktop have disappeared | 11:34 |
| Svenstaro | crayzee, Im sorry I cant really help with RAID config but I just happen to know that the Ubuntu installer had issues creating root on RAID | 11:34 |
| paulowsky | xc_legend: it means nautilus isn't up | 11:34 |
| xc_legend | they are all in a file in natulis under desktop | 11:34 |
| crayzee | Svenstaro, thanks anyway. | 11:34 |
| crayzee | Does anyone here have experience with manually setting up a RAID root partition? | 11:35 |
| paulowsky | xc_legend: open a terminal, and run nautilus | 11:35 |
| xc_legend | i did | 11:35 |
| Svenstaro | crayzee, if its not yet a fully stable system anyway, you might as well try hardy | 11:35 |
| paulowsky | xc_legend: no change? | 11:35 |
| ompaul | crayzee, my only suggestion is not to do it they way you are trying, but to back up your data to "something/where/else" | 11:35 |
| xc_legend | ok cool thanks the mouse works properly | 11:36 |
| isplicer | guys, i got my conky working - just one question | 11:36 |
| ompaul | crayzee, then use the alternate CD to do it all automagically -- not the answer you want but the only one I have | 11:36 |
| isplicer | how do i get the cpu amd mobo temps to work | 11:36 |
| isplicer | they are showing 0 | 11:36 |
| xc_legend | what happened did i kill nautilis prior | 11:36 |
| balle | is there a way to load the vlc player and not delete the imported files in it? | 11:36 |
| Svenstaro | ompaul, the alternate breaks on root platform in case of RAID | 11:36 |
| isplicer | i think i need to install sensors or something? | 11:36 |
| paulowsky | xc_legend: probably crashed, and failed to re-launch itself. happens | 11:36 |
| balle | is there a way to quit the vlc player and not delete the imported files in it? | 11:36 |
| crayzee | ompaul, I did consider that route, but the problem is it is a long lived install (since edgy was released) and I don't want to have to spend days setting up all the software again. :S | 11:37 |
| ompaul | Svenstaro, ehh I have it running in production for months on a couple of boxes | 11:37 |
| xc_legend | ok thanks so much so it is cool to turn compiz back on? | 11:37 |
| Svenstaro | Balle, you mean the playlist? | 11:37 |
| paulowsky | balle: not likely, you should take a look at smplayer. | 11:37 |
| Svenstaro | ompaul, you set up a root part RAID using the alternate? | 11:37 |
| matyy | hej, do I need both - apmd and acpid? | 11:37 |
| ompaul | Svenstaro, yes | 11:37 |
| Svenstaro | ompaul, without trouble? | 11:37 |
| matyy | are they connected? | 11:38 |
| ompaul | Svenstaro, it was a head wrecker but I got there | 11:38 |
| ompaul | Svenstaro, the DI is not as sweet as it might be when you fork to raid | 11:38 |

| paulowsky | hi Saeed, you are name sound familiar. you in uk? | 11:40 |
| jtravnick | why would two systems running almost everything identical take different times to say there are updates? | 11:40 |
| angie | hy | 11:40 |
| paulowsky | jtravnick: because their processors aren't running the exact same instructions at the exact same moments in time :) | 11:41 |
| orient2000 | . | 11:41 |
| jtravnick | paulowsky, good reason killer right after i asked the laptop finally came up and told me there where updates | 11:43 |

| Copter | If when i change resolution in ubuntu to anything other than 1280x1024 i get a black screen, what can i do ? i installed envy and added my monitor vert/horiz specs on xorg.confg . | 11:43 |
| jtravnick | think it just wanted me to look like a fool paulowsky | 11:44 |
| paulowsky | Copter: what is your display's max res? | 11:44 |
| Copter | I want to change it to 1024x768 to be specific | 11:44 |
| paulowsky | jtravnick: happens to everyone :) | 11:44 |
| Copter | and im sure it can display it because it works on winxp | 11:44 |
| Copter | :p | 11:44 |
| paulowsky | Copter: what's the max res you see in winxp? | 11:45 |
| orient2000 | :) | 11:45 |
| Copter | paulowsky: 1280x1024 | 11:46 |
| tocmo0nlord | is there a problem with ubuntu and m4a enconding ? | 11:46 |

| klaas | hey, I acidentally dragged thunderbird out of the window bar now I got a small thunderbird symbol in the middle of my screen that is always ontop and I can't get it to disappear again | 11:47 |
| Copter | and it can only run 1280x1024 on 60hz which kills me. | 11:47 |
| Copter | i wanna run it on 1024x768 | 11:47 |
| anaoum | klaas: ive done that before | 11:47 |
| anaoum | klaas: try dragging it again | 11:48 |
| paulowsky | Copter: in that case, you can run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" in a terminal and leave all options at default except the resolution. | 11:48 |
| klaas | I tried anaoum, not working | 11:48 |
| LollinopiL | i need to uninstall GXmame , how can I do it ? | 11:48 |
| Copter | paulowsky: I did but it says it cant "auto detect" my video card. IM on radeon x1950 pro | 11:48 |
| paulowsky | Copter: then select fglrx manually in the drivers list | 11:48 |
| anaoum | klaas: meh, log out & back in | 11:48 |
| ere4si | LollinopiL: how did you install it? | 11:49 |

| raintheory | i've got the 8.04 beta installed on my thinkpad r50 laptop, the install went smoothly, and prior to the install i was able to configure my wireless (i use static IP addresses here at home and openDNS), worked fine until I rebooted.. now neither the wireless or the wired will work.. any suggestions? I didnt notice until trying to upgrade some patches and look at the web. | 12:52 |

| BobPenguin | hello guys. I'm trying to make a video using gtk-recordmydesktop. I need to record directly from the sound card, but I can't find the option to enable soundcard capture in my alsamixer. I have recently changed my motherboard and sound card, yet my ubuntustudio 7.10 didn't ask me to update drivers or anything and everything works just fine. What should I do to enable soundcard capture? | 13:05 |
| coax | also, multi-core | 13:05 |
| SIRavecavec | is there a program or something to help me to do that? | 13:05 |
| raintheory | Flannel,thanks so much! | 13:05 |
| coax | SIRavecavec: I connect mine with bluetooth | 13:05 |
| SIRavecavec | coax, i mean with USB data cable | 13:06 |
| SIRavecavec | I think there are some ways thats why i asl | 13:06 |
| SIRavecavec | ask* | 13:06 |
| foo-nix | coax: Any idea if that would influence package management? | 13:06 |
| Flannel | foo-nix: what does `sudo apt-get update` give you? | 13:06 |
| coax | foo-nix: no | 13:06 |
| coax | SIRavecavec: you did select "file transfer" mode, right? | 13:07 |
| SIRavecavec | yes | 13:07 |
| === davi_ is now known as davi | ||
| coax | SIRavecavec: it should mount automatically then | 13:07 |
| coax | I think | 13:07 |

| SIRavecavec | ok | 13:07 |
| coax | 1 sec | 13:07 |

| Flannel | foo-nix: You don't have proper repositories for that other stuff, that's why. | 13:08 |
| Flannel | foo-nix: pastebin your sources.list (/etc/apt/sources.list) | 13:09 |
| coax | SIRavecavec: yes, I mounts ok and opens the file manager | 13:09 |
| bullgard4 | What is the relationship of GNOME and 'tray'? Is there some, or is 'tray' a term used outside of GNOME? | 13:09 |
| coax | /media/name_of_memory_card | 13:09 |
| encryptz | bullgard4: not following | 13:09 |

| bullgard4 | encryptz: Who is not following whom? | 13:10 |
| Flannel | bullgard4: The system tray is also in Windows, so no, its not a GNOME specific term | 13:10 |
| encryptz | delfick: that could be a proper response | 13:10 |

| foo-nix | Flannel: Here is my source list: http://pastebin.com/d2dec6abe | 13:10 |
| SIRavecavec | wait coax let me try | 13:11 |
| delfick | encryptz: is it possible my usb ports are screwed up ? cause it could explain why my calculator won't get picked up by tilp and why my scanner doesn't work after a certain dpi (but I swear it used to).... | 13:11 |
| foo-nix | It looks all commented out | 13:11 |
| foo-nix | Flannel: It looks all commented | 13:11 |
| Flannel | foo-nix: You just need to uncomment everything that the installer commented out. See all the "Line commented by installer because it failed to verify" lines? | 13:11 |
| foo-nix | Flannel: Ah, I see, thank you. (I am new to ubuntu) | 13:12 |
| encryptz | delfick: possibly. usb delivers power, but only very little. many usb devices need an external power source, such as scanners and extrnal hdd | 13:12 |
| delfick | hmmm.... | 13:12 |
| delfick | *sigh* | 13:12 |
| delfick | any way I could check my usb ports are not broken? | 13:12 |
| encryptz | delfick: short of getting a voltage/ohm meter? i know not... | 13:13 |
| delfick | lol | 13:13 |

| ampmaniac3 | hi! why does when i ping my hostname the seach domain is the one that reply | 13:13 |
| coax | ampmaniac3: check /etc/hosts | 13:14 |
| ampmaniac3 | and aslo i configured my bind but it does not reply when i ping it | 13:14 |
| jimineep | I installed ubuntu (latest edition) on my pc at home. I want to use it to login (ssh) to my pc (running centOS) at uni, and be able to get graphics forwarded to my pc at home.........is this the place to ask? | 13:14 |
| foo-nix | Flannel: Is it wise to just uncomment all, since they all say that they were commented out since the installer failed to verify (I had no internet when installing, for security reasons, and yes, I do securoty through obscurity) | 13:14 |
| coax | maybe it resolves your hostname with it | 13:14 |
| coax | ampmaniac3: how do you ping bind? | 13:14 |
| encryptz | jimineep: ssh -X | 13:14 |
| Flannel | foo-nix: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/61462/ is a modified (and cleaned up) one | 13:14 |

| gmenelau | which program can convert flv files to avi ? | 13:14 |
| foo-nix | Flannel: Thank you, especially for being my command line tool for uncommenting important stuff :) | 13:15 |
| BobPenguin | gmenelau, u can do that using Lives, a video editor | 13:15 |
| coax | SIRavecavec: oh... do you have a bluetooth adapter? | 13:15 |
| coax | ampmaniac3: /etc/resolv.conf points to the IP of the bind server, right? | 13:15 |
| SIRavecavec | noo | 13:15 |
| SIRavecavec | coax, i use data cable | 13:16 |
| coax | SIRavecavec: I'm all out of ideas then :( | 13:16 |
| ampmaniac3 | coax: i'll have a look at it | 13:16 |
| Flannel | foo-nix: That *should* be identical to you uncommenting and merging like sources (and assuming you want universe and multiverse). So if something doesn't work (I typed it all out, I proofread it though), you can use the old one to verify | 13:16 |
| coax | ampmaniac3: you know the syntax, right? | 13:16 |
| gmenelau | BobPenguin where do i find this? | 13:16 |

| BobPenguin | gmenelau, google for "lives", go to the dowload page, there is a debian package for ubuntu in there | 13:17 |
| foo-nix | Flannel: I will check for some frontend for editing this file, thank you for your help | 13:17 |
| encryptz | jimineep: ssh -Y then | 13:17 |

| vinoo | can anybody help me with my monitor resolution? | 13:19 |
| BobPenguin | I recently upgraded my motherboard a copule days ago. My Ubuntustudio has not asked me to upgrade any drivers, but sound capture does not show anymore in my alsamixer. Should I run some command to upgrade my soundcard drivers? | 13:20 |

| eth01 | prefixing it with "*" is still incorrect ;) | 13:21 |
| encryptz | jimineep: don't know what to tell you then. ssh -X will create an untrusted X tunnel. ssh -Y will create a trusted one | 13:21 |
| tmadsen | How do I find out which options my kernel was compiled with= | 13:21 |
| ere4si | sharkp: did you disable the onboard in the bios? | 13:22 |
| jimineep | so it seems the fault is their end? I dont need to install anything extra to ubuntu to handle the forwarding? | 13:22 |
| BobPenguin | gmenelau, open a termnal, run "dpkg --configure -a" and execute the debian package again | 13:22 |
| sharkp | ere4si, I can't make in function official driver | 13:22 |
| sharkp | ATI driver | 13:22 |
| logophobia | hi, if I want to run 64 bit, what else do I loose besides flash? Do the intel wifi drivers work in 64 bit mode? | 13:22 |
| gmenelau | BobPenguin how? | 13:22 |
| encryptz | jimineep: right. i wouldn't necessarily blame their end, but you don't need to install anything else | 13:22 |
| sharkp | and, by searching, I found that my kernel tries to use the video card support | 13:22 |
| sharkp | but on ati there isn'ts | 13:22 |
| ere4si | sharkp: but it uses the onboard video? | 13:23 |
| sharkp | no ere4si | 13:23 |
| ere4si | k | 13:23 |
| sharkp | I use an ATI card | 13:23 |
| encryptz | logophobia: the intel wifi drives work great. i'm running 64-bit now | 13:23 |
| sharkp | so I have to use the agpgart mioduel | 13:23 |
| ampmaniac3 | hi! why does when i ping my hostname my search domain is the one that replies | 13:23 |
| ere4si | !ati | sharkp seen this | 13:23 |
| BobPenguin | gmenelau, go to applications - accesories, select "terminal" and write "dpkg --configure -a" | 13:23 |
| ubotu | sharkp seen this: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 13:23 |

| logophobia | encryptz: thnx | 13:23 |
| gmenelau | BobPenguin dpkg: requested operation requires superuser privilege | 13:24 |
| logophobia | any other driver problems on 64 bit? any significant apps that don't work? | 13:24 |
| rahmen | Please help... https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI gives me this problem: http://pastebin.com/m6b46e0b6 What should I do next? | 13:24 |
| ampmaniac3 | what does search doamin does? | 13:24 |
| BobPenguin | gmenelau try "sudo dpkg --configure -a" | 13:24 |
| rgrig | gmenelau, prepend sudo | 13:24 |
| encryptz | logophobia: haven't noticed anything, other than flash. all the software that i care about (which is a lot) is there | 13:24 |
| jimineep | encyptz, where would one normally find the relevant x-forwarding software on a server? | 13:24 |
| anaoum | is it possible to add user aliases? | 13:25 |
| jimineep | encryptz: Also I assume it makes no difference their machine is 64 bit, mine 32 | 13:25 |
| encryptz | jimineep: ssh handles it for you automatically. X is a client/server arch, so ssh is asking to draw the app as a client | 13:25 |
| encryptz | jimineep: no, it doesn't matter | 13:26 |
| gmenelau | BobPenguin it say Setting up libsdl1.2-dev (1.2.11-9ubuntu2) ... do i live it like that until is finish ? | 13:26 |
| encryptz | ampmaniac3: what is your hostname? | 13:26 |

| gmenelau | BobPenguin ok thanks again.... for you help | 13:26 |

| BobPenguin | np :) | 13:27 |
| jimineep | encrypz, do you know of any public servers i could log into to check ssh CAN work on my pc? | 13:27 |
| encryptz | ampmaniac3: and is there a "search" term in /etc/resolv.conf? if so, what does it say? | 13:27 |
| ampmaniac3 | encryptz: ampmaniacsrv | 13:27 |
| encryptz | jimineep: i don't | 13:27 |

| ere4si | sharkp: have you installed drivers for your card? | 13:27 |
| sharkp | ere4si, ati 8.4, I think | 13:28 |
| sharkp | the latest one | 13:28 |
| ampmaniac3 | encryptz: it has a search myDomainSearch | 13:28 |
| sharkp | my card is supported | 13:28 |
| encryptz | ampmaniac3: and is your bind server setup for that domain? "myDomainSearch"? | 13:28 |
| ere4si | sharkp: and in a terminal have you typed sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and selected the driver for your card? | 13:29 |
| ampmaniac3 | encryptz: no. i added my domain there also and when i try to ping my domain it is concatenated with my search domain | 13:29 |
| sharkp | ere4si, after the installing of drivers, I launched aticonfig --initial, so fglrx were used | 13:29 |
| ampmaniac3 | encryptz: like myDomain.SearchDomain | 13:29 |
| encryptz | ampmaniac3: yes. whenever you make a dns request, the search term in /etc/resolv.conf will be appending, looking in that domain for it, in the case of ampmaniacsrv | 13:30 |
| ampmaniac3 | encryptz: thats the one that replies | 13:30 |
| sharkp | but when I've rebooted X....nothingà | 13:30 |
| encryptz | ampmaniac3: do you have ampmaniacsrv in /etc/hosts? | 13:30 |
| anaoum | is it possible to create user aliases? | 13:30 |
| ere4si | sharkp: but you get small resolution? - I don't know any other way to help sorry | 13:30 |
| logophobia | by the way, just wondering, why is the 64bit version advertised as AMD64, while all the core2duo machines are 64 too. its a bit confusing. | 13:31 |

| ampmaniac3 | encryptz: 127.0.1.1 ampmaniacsrv.ampmaniac.com | 13:31 |

| ampmaniac3 | nope, ok i'll do it | 13:32 |
| === VoX is now known as vox | ||
| ere4si | !tv | 13:32 |
| ubotu | http://www.linuxtv.org/ has extensive information about using TV cards under Linux. Available viewers for analog cards: Zapping, tvtime (GTK/GNOME), kdetv (KDE), xawtv, motv. For digital cards: Klear (KDE), dvb-utils. For both analog and digital cards, !MythTV is a powerful framework. Your card may work the !IVTV drivers. See also !TV-Out | 13:32 |
| ampmaniac3 | encryptz: many thanks | 13:32 |
| encryptz | ampmaniac3: np | 13:32 |
| epistax | I have a funky X situation. I'm running two separate X servers on two different monitors. Sometimes the mouse gets stuck on one while the keyboard gets stuck on the other. Are there any hotkeys or such I can use to move the mouse? | 13:33 |
| epistax | hmm Well maybe it's wrong to say two separate X servers, I don't know how it's handled internally | 13:33 |
| encryptz | epistax: you're running dual monitors on the same box? | 13:34 |
| ampmaniac3 | this is what replies when i ping my domain -> ampmaniac.com.meridiantelekoms.com | 13:34 |
| logophobia | thnx all, bye | 13:34 |
| epistax | encryptz: Yes. I am not using twinview or.. that other thing I can never remember the name of | 13:34 |
| ampmaniac3 | this is my domain search -> meridiantelekoms.com | 13:34 |
| mobodo | is there something that I can do to make ubuntu usable in 800x600 or 640x480? | 13:34 |
| encryptz | epistax: ok. so, you're running 1 X server, just enlarging the display | 13:35 |
| mobodo | like, would there be a way to make it think it's larger but then scale everything down? right now, a lot of windows are too big and won't let me see the "ok/cancel" buttons at the bottom | 13:35 |
| encryptz | epistax: i don't know of any shortcut keys to move the mouse, btw | 13:35 |
| epistax | ecrpytz: err I don't have the default setup. Neither screen is aware of the other. This is on purpose. For example, I have two completely separate desktops, two sets of workspaces, I cannot share windows between the two | 13:36 |
| astro76 | mobodo: if you hold ALT you click anywhere in a window to drag it | 13:36 |
| ere4si | mobodo: a trick I found is if you press and hold the alt key then press and hold the left mouse button you can drag a window up | 13:36 |
| encryptz | epistax: right. that's what twin view is all about | 13:36 |
| mobodo | even above the title bar? | 13:36 |
| mobodo | let me try that | 13:36 |
| encryptz | epistax: xinerama allows you to have one desktop sharing apps | 13:36 |
| encryptz | or however it's spelled | 13:37 |
| unop_ | epistax, gnome has mouse-keys -- check the keyboard properties, its somewhere there | 13:37 |
| mobodo | hmmmpf mine windows won't go above the title bar | 13:37 |
| epistax | encryptz: Well if you look at my Xorg, you won't see any mention of twin view | 13:37 |
| theron | My connections to my router are horrific, NM says I've got a decent connection, another distro same laptop pulls test files from my router @ over 200K, while heron pulls the files @ 10K then slows down to 1000 or so B, then dies after a few min. I'm thinking that my router is old enough it dosen't do ipv6. How do I disable it properly on ubuntu so that it will play nice with my router? | 13:37 |
| epistax | unop_: I'll take a look, thanks | 13:37 |
| DRebellion | !ipv6 | theron | 13:37 |
| ubotu | theron: To disable ipv6 read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WebBrowsingSlowIPv6IPv4 | 13:37 |
| theron | DRebellion: thx | 13:38 |
| astro76 | theron: also #ubuntu+1 for hardy | 13:38 |
| theron | astro76: got no answer in there | 13:39 |
| racarter | ln -st ~/Desktop ./myapp | 13:39 |
| astro76 | that doesn't turn this into hardy support ;) | 13:39 |
| racarter | that should make a link i can click on my desktop to myapp, right? | 13:39 |
| epistax | hmm I don't think anything under Keyboard Shortcuts will solve this issue | 13:39 |
| peter77 | hi, ever since I reinstalled ubuntu I'm having problems with my laptop shutting down when the battery reaches a certain percentage, I have set grub up not to use the time policy and when the battery level reaches 15% to shut down | 13:39 |
| encryptz | racarter: nope. that will create a shortcut called "myapp" that will take you to your desktop | 13:40 |
| SIRavecavec | anyone know how can i instal obex | 13:40 |
| encryptz | racarter: what is the app that you want to put as a shortcut on your desktop? | 13:40 |
| SIRavecavec | ? | 13:40 |
| epistax | Actually maybe locking would fix it | 13:40 |
| racarter | encryptz, eclipse 3.3 | 13:40 |
| hmuller | Can anyone tell me the path and name of the script that starts compiz? | 13:41 |
| encryptz | racarter: do you know where the binary for eclipse is stored? | 13:41 |
| theron | astro76: is it different then, on how to disable ipv6? | 13:41 |
| racarter | i put it in /opt | 13:41 |
| jonaskoelker | question: would it be sensible to fuse the caches of apt-cacher and apt? | 13:41 |
| encryptz | racarter: so, ln -s /opt/eclipse ~/Desktop/eclipse | 13:41 |
| gregory_ | encryptz: whereis $program | 13:42 |
| encryptz | gregory_: pardon? | 13:42 |
| ryanzec | how do i make the folder view as list by default without having to change each one? | 13:42 |
| astro76 | theron: no, the difference lies in the fact that the initial problem might be beta related...also disabling IPv6 will not affect connection speeds, only delay in initial connection attempt possibly so it's probably not that... | 13:42 |
| jtravnick | so I have a bunch of tapes from our camcorder I want to upload them and do some editing than burn them to dvd is there any good software to do this? oh the camcorder uses usb to connect to the computer | 13:42 |
| jonaskoelker | that is, merge /var/cache/apt/archives and /var/cache/apt-cacher/packages/? | 13:42 |
| gregory_ | encryptz: it was a general solution hint. for any program you can find its location by executing whereis programname | 13:43 |
| jaffarkelshac | how do make my alias permanent | 13:43 |
| ampmaniac3 | hi! on my /etc/hosts there's a line -> 127.0.1.1 ampmaniacserver ampmaniacserver.ampmaniac.com should i rewrite the 127.0.1.1 with my address which is 192.168.277.277 | 13:43 |
| nemesis | how install dream CSS3 on Gutsy ? | 13:43 |
| encryptz | gregory_: yes. i'm familiar with the whereis, which, locate, and find utilities. | 13:43 |
| astro76 | ampmaniac3: no! | 13:43 |
| racarter | how come eclipse 3.3 isn't in standard ubuntu repository? | 13:43 |
| racarter | i only see 3.2 | 13:44 |
| jaffarkelshac | i added alias for sudo aptitude install but the alias does not stay | 13:44 |
| ampmaniac3 | astro76: so ill leave the 127.0.1.1? | 13:44 |
| astro76 | ampmaniac3: the 127. stuff are the loopback addresses you need those ;) | 13:44 |
| encryptz | racarter: it wasn't released when gutsy froze | 13:44 |
| racarter | isn't it like year old? | 13:44 |
| encryptz | racarter: gutsy, or eclipse3.3? gutsy was released october of last year, froze some time in sept. i don't know when eclipse 3.3 was released | 13:45 |
| racarter | maybe i should make my own .deb for it | 13:45 |
| ampmaniac3 | astro76: then i should add a line 192.168.277.277 ampmaniacserver ampmaniacserver.ampmaniac.com | 13:45 |
| epistax | w00t | 13:45 |
| epistax | that might work | 13:45 |
| jaffarkelshac | how do make my alias stay permanent | 13:46 |
| gregory_ | encryptz: your question about the location of a binary didnt imply that, nevermind | 13:46 |
| encryptz | jaffarkelshac: add it to ~/.bashrc | 13:46 |
| astro76 | ampmaniac3: yeah add a line | 13:46 |
| epistax | Another question: I have an X window that won't let the mouse cursor leave it without cheating (such as alt+f2), is there anyway to override the mouse cursor block completely? | 13:46 |
| jaffarkelshac | encryptz, how do i do that | 13:46 |
| theron | astro76: ok thx. | 13:46 |
| encryptz | jaffarkelshac: open that file in a text editor of your choice, and add your alias | 13:46 |
| jaffarkelshac | encryptz, cheers | 13:47 |

| === elle is now known as abricot | ||

| Jazzhead09 | hi... i'm having a problem using the partitioner in the ubuntu installer | 13:53 |
| chazco | Hi... anyone know how to uncomment a line with sed... e.g. remove the # from #mkdir -p /dev/bus/usb/.usbfs in a file? | 13:53 |
| racarter | actually it looks the deb file is still in /var/cache/apt/archives | 13:54 |
| inminic | Jazzhead09, what's the problem? | 13:54 |
| racarter | i wanted to look at the actual deb file so i can use it as an example btw | 13:54 |
| astro76 | racarter: also aptitude show ;) | 13:54 |
| Jazzhead09 | alright | 13:54 |
| Jazzhead09 | i want to dual boot | 13:54 |
| Jazzhead09 | and followed the documentation on ubuntu.com | 13:54 |
| racarter | if i want to examine the contents of the deb file, can i just unarchive it with tar? | 13:54 |
| Starnestommy | racarter: I think .deb files are ar format | 13:55 |
| Jazzhead09 | and i dont know how to partition my disc because the things they tell me to do in the guide aren't available | 13:55 |
| ubuntunaaab | hello | 13:55 |
| encryptz | chazco: sed -i.bak -r 's/^#mkdir -p \/dev\/bus\/usb\/.usbfs/mkdir -p \/dev\/usb\/.usbfs/' | 13:55 |
| astro76 | racarter: there's an extract option to dpkg | 13:55 |
| racarter | ok | 13:55 |
| inminic | Jazzhead09, how does your partition set-up look? | 13:55 |
| encryptz | chazco: that will create a backup file with .bak extension in case it doesn't work | 13:55 |
| inminic | can you run fdisk -l ? | 13:55 |

| chazco | encryptz - Ah, seems like a good way. Some of the lines are quite long, but i guess it shouldnt trouble it. Thanks :) | 13:56 |

| encryptz | chazco: np. you may want to try without the -i switch first, making sure it works | 13:56 |
| * encryptz hasn't tested | 13:56 | |
| pygmymath | djjd: ATI dont support linux properly... theres some ocs on getting xgl installed if you want to run desktop effect | 13:57 |
| inminic | Jazzhead09, you should choose manual. but i'd like to know what partitions you've got on your hard drive | 13:57 |

| pygmymath | djjd: the bot speaks goodness | 13:57 |
| pygmymath | djjd: nvidia has much better support | 13:57 |
| encryptz | chazco: it's a regex anchor for the beginning of the line | 13:57 |
| Jazzhead09 | inminic: right now im on my windows side but i had a few small ones | 13:57 |
| chazco | Ok :) | 13:58 |
| djjd | I have a geforce mx 200 | 13:58 |
| inminic | Jazzhead09, do you know how many partitions you've got and their sizes? | 13:58 |
| inminic | Jazzhead09, you just need to install Ubuntu on a partition that is not running windows | 13:58 |
| Dmole | trying to do this: linuxA-tsclient->linuxA-ssh->linuxB->Windows from lin | 13:58 |
| Jazzhead09 | inminic: the only one i can install on was my windows one | 13:59 |
| pygmymath | djjd: in the same box? nice | 13:59 |
| Jazzhead09 | i needed to break a partition off of that one to use for ubuntu | 13:59 |
| inminic | then you can resize the windows partition at your own risk. i take no responsibility for any data loss... | 13:59 |
| Jazzhead09 | lol alright | 14:00 |
| Dmole | ssh command should be: ssh -N -f -D 5900 tim@linuxB ? maybe the -L option? | 14:00 |
| inminic | how big is the partition | 14:00 |
| inminic | ? | 14:00 |
| RandoCal | Is resizing an NTFS partition form Gparted still considered experimental? or is it pretty stable these days? | 14:00 |
| djjd | I tried installing the nvidia driver and now I get a box that comes up during boot with an X as the cursor but the text is too small to read it is very small at the desktop as well | 14:00 |
| Jazzhead09 | well that is like my whole hard drive and its like 76 gigs | 14:00 |
| inminic | RandoCal, "these day"? how many years ago did you try? :) | 14:00 |
| astro76 | RandoCal: I've done it many many times with no problems | 14:00 |
| Jazzhead09 | i've used 49 gigs already | 14:00 |
| pygmymath | djjd: with the nvidia card right? and usually theres a restricted driver that works out the box so tospeak | 14:01 |
| pygmymath | djjd: did you enable that? | 14:01 |
| RandoCal | I see warnings here and there when I'm reading about it.... | 14:01 |
| inminic | Jazzhead09, ok. that's not much really to spare, but you could try resizing it | 14:01 |
| astro76 | RandoCal: inminic is right, it's been working fine for years ;) | 14:01 |
| Jazzhead09 | how? | 14:01 |
| pygmymath | RandoCal: I've done it about 10 times without a b0rk | 14:01 |
| djjd | I did enable that and then everything is too small to read | 14:01 |
| RandoCal | okay, goodstuff | 14:01 |
| astro76 | RandoCal: well, people still also say swap = 2x ram and that hasn't been good advice for 10 year so... ;) | 14:01 |
| inminic | Jazzhead09, you need to run a partition editor | 14:01 |
| pygmymath | djjd: does it stay small? | 14:02 |
| djjd | Yes | 14:02 |
| inminic | i think (without being too sure since i've never had any use for it) the ubuntu-installer can do iy | 14:02 |
| chazco | encryptz - So, if the line begins with spaces that wont work? (It doesnt work) | 14:02 |
| pygmymath | djjd: have you got that computer on now? | 14:02 |
| Jazzhead09 | inminic: yea i do think i saw a partition editor there | 14:02 |
| inminic | then give it a try Jazzhead09 | 14:02 |
| inminic | just remember one thing, b-a-c-k-u-p! | 14:02 |
| djjd | I have booted from the cd and was about to reload | 14:02 |
| pygmymath | djjd: try and enable the nvidia drivers on the cd, see what happens | 14:03 |
| inminic | Jazzhead09, just dont make the windows partition too small, leave at least 5 gig | 14:03 |
| djjd | I have my ati card installed | 14:03 |
| chazco | encryptz - Seems so... removed the ^ and it works | 14:04 |
| chazco | Thanks :) | 14:04 |
| chazco | encryptz - Seems so... removed the ^ and it works | 14:04 |
| pygmymath | djjd: ah. well desktop effects will work pretty easily, you just have to install xgl | 14:04 |
| djjd | thx I will try that | 14:05 |
| encryptz | chazco: cool. | 14:05 |
| djjd | So I need to do this in Gutsy? | 14:05 |
| pygmymath | djjd: i've never done it in Hardy | 14:05 |
| djjd | I am using Gutsy | 14:06 |
| chazco | encryptz - One last question (thanks btw) - if there are tabs/spaces in something i want to match, how does sed recognise them? (e.g. say i was trying to match SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device", MODE="0664") | 14:06 |
| pygmymath | djjd: if you need help with Hardy ask in #Ubuntu+1 though, they're the guys playing with that | 14:06 |
| pygmymath | djjd: its best to use gutsy till hardy comes out properly, yeah | 14:06 |
| djjd | <!> I'm not sure that the note below still applies, as Ubuntu is shipping these capabilities in gutsy. (from the xgl page) | 14:07 |
| encryptz | chazco: \t for tab, \s for space (or an actual space) | 14:07 |
| chazco | Ah... thought that \t wasnt recognised by sed... | 14:07 |
| chazco | How about a partial match... e.g. find SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device", on a line and replace the whole line? | 14:08 |
| encryptz | chazco: need to pass -r switch for regex foo | 14:08 |
| bratao1 | Guys, i´m having a problem with ubuntu. I trying to create a desktop icon. In english i create in $HOME/Desktop, but how i detect it for anothers languages ? | 14:08 |
| chazco | Ah... will give it a try, thanks :) | 14:08 |
| mad_max02 | whats the easiest way to resize partitions ? I made a 100GB / partition but I need about 30-40. How can I resize it and enlarge /home partition | 14:09 |
| encryptz | chazco: you'll need to use word achors: \< and \> for looking for a word in a line | 14:09 |
| djjd | How do I reset my display settings to the default? I need to boot in like a recovery mode right? | 14:09 |
| encryptz | chazco: sed is massive and complicated. adding support for regex makes it even more so. i would spend some time on the documentation playing around with both to become familiar. i certainly don't know everything. ツ | 14:09 |
| bratao1 | Guys, i´m having a problem with ubuntu. I trying to create a desktop icon. In english i create in $HOME/Desktop, but how i detect the Desktop folder for anothers languages ? | 14:10 |
| chazco | encryptz - I've got the basics, but trying to get use to it is a nightmare :) Regular expressions are tricky to get used to | 14:10 |
| encryptz | chazco: that they are | 14:11 |
| pygmymath | bratao1: If it's always "Desktop" you could use ~/Desktop/ ? | 14:11 |
| hariram | nose | 14:11 |
| bratao1 | But is not always Desktop, in portuguese it called ~/Area de trabalho | 14:12 |

| chazco | encryptz - Think i've got it sorted (except for a really complicated one thats going to take some thinking about), thanks for all the help :) | 14:16 |
| SliMM | why's that and what can i do to make it that high when i am not using the hard disk? | 14:16 |
| heepunk | hi | 14:17 |
| sirjoebob | LjL.... touchpad still works the entire time though | 14:17 |
| LjL | sirjoebob: do you have another USB device where you could see if the same thing happens? like, uhm... a flash card might not be very meaningful, since there is caching... a bluetooth key, wireless key, something USB that you could check if it stops working when you're typing? | 14:17 |
| heepunk | hi | 14:17 |
| heepunk | what is ubuntu | 14:17 |
| LjL | !ubuntu | heepunk | 14:17 |
| ubotu | heepunk: Ubuntu is a complete Linux-based operating system, freely available with both community and professional support. It is developed by a large community and we invite you to participate too! - Also see http://www.ubuntu.com | 14:17 |
| sirjoebob | LjL. nothing other than the 6 or 7 USB mice i have tried | 14:17 |
| LjL | SliMM, my guess is that the speed is not increasing at all. simply, the HD activity (and possibly the CPU activity) clogs the downloader program, which ends up believing that, all of a sudden, it's able to download a lot of data - while what really happened is that it wasn't able to write any to disk for some time | 14:18 |
| ApOgEE- | hi all, how can i burn vcd image cue+bin in ubuntu? | 14:18 |
| SliMM | LjL: oh, i see, ok then :-) | 14:19 |

| === jamesfoster is now known as jamessfoster | ||
| LjL | sirjoebob, i could suggest checking the logs in /var/log carefully for strange messages about interrupts, and such thing. or, because i feel like taking wild guesses today... why don't you try adding the "noapic" option to your kernel? (you can do that by rebooting and, in the GRUB menu, hitting "e", going to the longest line, "e" again, add "noapic" to the end of the line, then "b" to boot) | 14:20 |

| LjL | !info mdf2iso | ApOgEE- | 14:21 |
| LjL | ah right, it isn't working. well ApOgEE-, the package "mdf2iso" should let you convert from bin+cue into ISO | 14:21 |
| sirjoebob | LjL. i may have found a solution in the forums.... i think i will try this and then what you suggested... in case you are interested, check the solution here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=402296 | 14:21 |
| ApOgEE- | thanks LjL | 14:22 |

| sirjoebob | LjL... that solution is confirmed working in my case in case you ever run across it again. | 14:23 |
| heepunk | use command-line | 14:24 |

| feierfox | wüßte da wer abhilfe? | 14:27 |

| LjL | ApOgEE-: those program can only burn ISO images, not cue+bin. you need to convert them first, i'm afraid | 14:29 |
| darkangel | i hash checked and burned more over 10 cd with different burber and speed all are the same instalation begain reach 73% then told me that cd can't be read (live cd) | 14:29 |
| gregory_ | with date you can also change the time, you can read it in the help via "man date" | 14:29 |
| Renardp | hello, how may I add a directory to the PATH ? | 14:29 |
| Dr_willis | k3b is suppiosed to be avble to handle cue/bin files. Or you could convert them to .iso | 14:29 |
| ethan961 | darkangel, did you check the md5sum of the iso? | 14:30 |
| LjL | although, when i mentioned mdf2iso, i might have been thinking of bchunk... i confuse them | 14:30 |
| darkangel | i used vista to download and burn live cd | 14:30 |
| darkangel | download twice | 14:30 |
| erUSUL | !iso | ApOgEE- | 14:30 |
| ubotu | ApOgEE-: 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. | 14:30 |

| trippin445 | hey | 14:31 |
| Sinnerman | darkangel: if i remember correctly there is an option to check the cd media at boot time, did you try that? you probably did. just a thought. | 14:31 |
| ApOgEE- | LjL: how can i convert bin+cue files to iso then? | 14:31 |
| pontus21 | Dr_willis, what's the url ? | 14:31 |
| darkangel | did | 14:31 |
| LjL | ApOgEE-: use "bchunk" | 14:32 |
| Dr_willis | pontus21, no idea. check out the ubuntu forums, they got seeral sections. | 14:32 |
| ie72 | ApOgEE-: use k3b | 14:32 |
| pontus21 | ok, i'm gonna check | 14:32 |
| darkangel | yes did and no error found | 14:32 |
| pontus21 | thanks any way | 14:32 |
| Dr_willis | I thought ive used k3b to burn cue/bin files, by telling it to brn image, and selected the cue file | 14:32 |

| lothar | I am completely noob here | 14:40 |
| lothar | how do I do that | 14:40 |
| krushr | dl manager for what? | 14:40 |
| Dr_willis | SliMM, You really dont see a lot of download managers used under linux, like you do wth windows. | 14:41 |
| krushr | ftp/http dls? | 14:41 |
| Dr_willis | there used to be prozilla, and a few others.. but not seen them in ages | 14:41 |
| SliMM | Dr_willis: well, gwget slows things down | 14:41 |
| Deeps | anyone here know much about NFS? | 14:41 |
| LjL | lothar: open a terminal, type « gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list », copy and paste to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org and give me the URL | 14:41 |

| Starnestommy | lothar: which client do you use? | 14:46 |
| LjL | lothar, depends on the IRC client you're using | 14:47 |
| xim | id like to do that too, but that would be client speciic | 14:47 |
| HardyOne | xim, it is temp root there is no need to run in root all the time so when you need root privs use sudo | 14:47 |
| lothar | pidgin | 14:47 |
| xim | Hardyone but im curious about what user account is actually running the command | 14:47 |
| HardyOne | xim, I believe it is the user issuing the sudo command | 14:47 |
| xim | but why would the user get super user power from his own user password? that doesnt make sense?? | 14:48 |
| erUSUL | !sudo | xim | 14:48 |
| lothar | LjL - Ok did that | 14:48 |
| ubotu | xim: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. | 14:48 |
| lothar | what now? | 14:48 |
| unop_ | HardyOne, erm -- sudo sh -c "echo \$USER" # should display root, not $USER | 14:49 |
| lothar | LjL - And I cut and pasted over the previous one, should I have done that? | 14:49 |
| Dr_willis | xim, sudo wants the USERS password. Not the root users password. thats one of the points of sudo. | 14:49 |
| ion | what are some other good irc clients for ubuntu? | 14:49 |
| LjL | lothar: now type « sudo apt-get update » and then try again installing VLC | 14:49 |

| jamestech | A quick question, I am writing a shell script to force mount ntfs drives... it prompts the user to enter the device name with "read %drv" how do i put that %drv into the command, like mount /dev/%drv"? | 14:49 |
| unop_ | xim, when you use sudo and a command, the command is run as root | 14:49 |
| xim | but doesnt that circumvent the security of not giving users root access? | 14:49 |
| Starnestommy | xim: it doesn't give them direct root access | 14:49 |
| Dr_willis | xim, its HOW a user is able to do rooty tasks.. the first user has the rights to do sudo stuff.. others dont. | 14:49 |
| krushr | jamestech i don't think so since thats a file path your refering w/ a perfentage thingy | 14:50 |

| krushr | use something simple like perl to prompt for input | 14:50 |
| Dr_willis | lothar, theres a plugin in the settings. | 14:50 |
| xim | maybe i should read the man page | 14:50 |

| dark_harmonics | lothar most of the time if there is a hardware error there is a message about it under the dmesg commands output | 15:02 |
| dark_harmonics | CJS3141 have you tried backing up your /etc/xorg.conf and run a dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 15:02 |
| lothar | Dark - Where can I find the dmesg commands output? | 15:02 |
| dark_harmonics | just run it at a terminal lothar | 15:02 |
| dark_harmonics | remember to get full control over this OS you need terminal and GUI tools | 15:03 |
| lothar | Dark: Usage: dmesg [-c] [-n level] [-s bufsize] | 15:03 |
| amenado | what would be a good application or a condition one should use apparmor assuming one is not running SELinux? | 15:03 |
| lothar | It really didnt give me anything | 15:03 |
| === jpw27 is now known as jpw27_ | ||
| dark_harmonics | is there a specific device that isnt working lothar? | 15:04 |
| dark_harmonics | most devices are supported ootb | 15:04 |
| === jpw27 is now known as jpw27_ | ||
| dark_harmonics | i only had a few that needed me to do anything custom | 15:04 |
| CJS3141 | dark_harmonics: No haven't tried that, what will reconfiguring the xserver-xorg exactly do? What does that have to do with my video card? | 15:04 |
| dark_harmonics | xserver is what controls your video card. As long as you back up your xorg.conf you can return it to the previous state | 15:05 |
| dark_harmonics | reconfiguring it makes sure that there are no bad settings | 15:05 |
| dark_harmonics | kind of like wiping your video settings clean | 15:05 |
| dark_harmonics | your video card may not support compiz if it is a legacy device btw | 15:05 |
| dark_harmonics | i ahve an older nvidia card here that does not | 15:05 |

| Acomaco | with command line? | 15:07 |
| dark_harmonics | acomaco sudo shutdown 0 | 15:07 |
| Bappy | init 0? | 15:07 |
| noelferreira | amenado, and the UPS shuts down the computer? | 15:07 |
| kalatian | dark_harmonics: right click on the name of the channel (#ubuntu) and click join show/part messages | 15:07 |
| Starnestommy | dark_harmonics: right-click on the channel's tab and uncheck "show join/part messages" | 15:07 |
| amenado | noelferreira-> and then a smart ups can send a shutdown signal to the host | 15:07 |
| CJS3141 | dark_harmonics: Yes, I've all ready come to the conclusion that my video card doesn't seem to support compiz. :-) I'll try the dpkg-reconfigure command--thanks! | 15:07 |
| Acomaco | okey thanks | 15:07 |
| noelferreira | what you mean by a smart ups? | 15:08 |
| dark_harmonics | not an option in mine | 15:08 |
| kalatian | dark_harmonics: you have xchat-gnome? | 15:08 |
| dark_harmonics | yea kalatian | 15:08 |
| dark_harmonics | installed from the repos | 15:08 |
| dark_harmonics | gutsy | 15:08 |
| amenado | noelferreira-> those with smarts.. has sensors that can be managed and issue commands or signal an interrupt, like wake-onlan | 15:08 |
| astro76 | noelferreira: a ups with a serial or usb port | 15:08 |
| dark_harmonics | Amenado if all you want to do is shut down the system sudo shutdown 0 will work | 15:09 |
| Bappy | can anyone help me with screen res? it's stuck at 640x480@50hz and wont let me increase it | 15:09 |
| kalatian | dark_harmonics: I think thats the problem, xchat-gnome is an interesting program sometimes... | 15:09 |
| noelferreira | astro76, where can i get more information about that? | 15:09 |
| amenado | dark_harmonics-> you dont do that just for kicks, there are reason why one need to shutdown | 15:09 |
| amenado | noelferreira-> look at the vendors offerings.. APS ups has lots of info | 15:10 |
| Jero | does anyone know how to code drivers? | 15:10 |
| Araneidae | Can anybody tell me where .desktop files are documented? | 15:10 |
| dark_harmonics | amenado not sure why you want to know, just ansering your question directly | 15:10 |
| dark_harmonics | kalatian well thanks anyhow ill look deeper in help files | 15:10 |
| amenado | dark_harmonics-> you jumped in to a convo, he asked if the UPS shutsdown a host | 15:11 |
| CJS3141 | dark_harmonics: Sorry to bother you again, but I don't have a /etc/xorg.conf file--is that the right path? | 15:11 |
| dark_harmonics | ok i just saw the question and answered thats all | 15:11 |
| dark_harmonics | CJS3141 are you using Hardy? | 15:12 |
| CJS3141 | dark_harmonics: gutsy. | 15:12 |
| dark_harmonics | i think Gutsy and Hardy can run without them though | 15:12 |
| astro76 | CJS3141: /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 15:12 |
| ethan961 | it should be /etc/X11/xorg.cone | 15:12 |
| dark_harmonics | /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 15:12 |
| dark_harmonics | sorry | 15:12 |
| ethan961 | right | 15:12 |
| dark_harmonics | and X in X11 has to be caps | 15:12 |
| heydabop | I tried using ntfsresize, but it told me my hard drvie was messed up, and I needed to run chkdsk /f, I've run it twice, yet ntfsresize still doesn't want to resize. | 15:13 |
| heydabop | I also used the -b option. | 15:13 |
| JohnnyHempseed | earlier i installed icedtea java plug in | 15:13 |
| JohnnyHempseed | and it messed firefox up | 15:13 |
| JohnnyHempseed | well i uninstalled it and what not | 15:13 |
| JohnnyHempseed | but the damage is still there | 15:13 |
| legend2440 | dark_harmonics: to turn off who join in xchat open .xchat2>xchat.conf and find line that says irc_who_join = 1 and change 1 to 0 | 15:13 |
| amenado | heydabop-> use your xp to do those repairs ? | 15:13 |
| heydabop | Amenado, I used Winodws Vista. | 15:14 |
| dark_harmonics | thanks legend2440 will try | 15:14 |
| JohnnyHempseed | firefox wont work right at all now | 15:14 |
| CJS3141 | ethan961, astro76, thanks! But I still don't have a xorg.conf file in /etc/X11 ! Is that bad? Or has the configuration file never been set up? | 15:14 |
| amenado | heydabop-> then use vista | 15:14 |
| heydabop | I did. | 15:14 |
| heydabop | Ubuntu doesn't have chkdsk. | 15:14 |
| amenado | heydabop-> realize ntfs is native to windows and not to ubuntu | 15:14 |
| mad_max02 | JohnnyHempseed, just remove it and install again | 15:14 |
| Jero | hopefully someone can help...i cant seem to find linux drivers for my dlink dwa-142 | 15:14 |
| JohnnyHempseed | mad_max02 remove firefox and install again? | 15:15 |
| krushr | whats a good app that just categorizes files based on ID3 tags | 15:15 |
| Bappy | heydabop> does fsck not dot he same as chkdsk? | 15:15 |
| amenado | heydabop-> you're forgetting its in the windows realm, so use the windows tools.. | 15:15 |
| heydabop | Amenado, I'm aware, that's why I'm trying to use the partiotion manager to resize it. | 15:15 |
| CJS3141 | Sorry--my mistake... I found the xorg.conf file... gosh maybe I need more sleep or something... :-) | 15:15 |
| mad_max02 | JohnnyHempseed, yeah. did you try installing sun java 1.6.0 ??? | 15:15 |

| FloodBot1 | mad_max02: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 15:15 |
| heydabop | Amenado, so should I use a Windows based partitioner? | 15:15 |
| JohnnyHempseed | h/o im gonna uinstall firefox right quick | 15:16 |
| heydabop | To shrink my NTFS partition, and then use the one on Ubuntu to make an ext3 partition? | 15:16 |
| Bappy | rockaper> is yer pc configged to boot off cd? | 15:16 |
| amenado | heydabop-> yes if you are trying to sub divide an existing ntfs partition | 15:16 |
| rockaper | yes | 15:16 |
| heydabop | Amenado, ok. | 15:16 |
| mad_max02 | JohnnyHempseed, use synaptics | 15:16 |
| unop_ | krushr, exfalso | 15:16 |
| heydabop | I'll try that. I dunno if it'll work, because I have a few bad sectors. | 15:16 |

| heydabop | Thanks though. | 15:16 |
| JohnnyHempseed | mad_max02 thank you =] | 15:16 |
| Bappy | thats odd then... does it give any error msgs? | 15:16 |
| dark_harmonics | crap still getting the join messages | 15:17 |
| amenado | heydabop-> i dont trust the linux tools yet for that..besides you have ntfs because you choose to stay with windows | 15:17 |
| dark_harmonics | but that has to be the right config file | 15:17 |
| JohnnyHempseed | this is crackerjackz btw | 15:17 |
| differentreality | hey all :) could you tell me the file i need to create in order to define the dns servers of my provider ? | 15:17 |

| differentreality | kalatian, thank u :) | 15:17 |
| kalatian | differentreality: no problem :) | 15:17 |
| amenado | differentreality-> you dont define your ISP name server..you point to the ISP name server via /etc/resolv.conf | 15:17 |
| differentreality | yes.. this :) | 15:18 |
| dark_harmonics | argh just saved changes wrong lol | 15:18 |

| blah569 | This has never happend to me (the errors). I made a new Ubuntu CD with Ubuntu 7.10, and I burned the iso to the disk, and then I used it. I checked for defects, it said that it found one error in one file. I decided that the shouldn't too much of a problem, so then I choosed the menu item "Try/Install Ubuntu." After the first progress passing, it switched the second progress bar. The second progress bar was stuck arround the beginning, but out a little | 15:20 |
| Bappy | whats that going to do? | 15:20 |
| dark_harmonics | when i change .xchat2/xchat.conf to have irc_who_join = 0 its sets itself back to 1?!?!? | 15:20 |

| phlewpy | bappy: and using apt-get ? | 15:29 |
| Edulix_ | Bappy: doesn't work | 15:29 |
| computer13137 | Hi | 15:29 |
| HardyOne | ApOgEE-, cheeper if you had just bought the dvd | 15:30 |
| Bappy | ApOgEE: id recommend u use an iso burner whilst your playing so u dont need to write actua disks :) | 15:30 |
| danand | Edulix_ - you need to add and enable your users password in the samba password database. Run the command 'sudo smbpasswd -a USERNAME' - this will ask you to enter a password for your user. Then run 'sudo smbpasswd -e USERNAME' - this will enable the share for your user. After that you should be able to connect to the share. | 15:30 |
| computer13137 | I have a SH script I put in /etc/init.d. When I run it manually it works fine, but when it starts with the machine, it doesn't do anything. Do you have any idea as to why that is? | 15:30 |
| amenado | ApOgEE--> i do not burn vcd's but can you not mount the iso first before burning it? | 15:30 |
| erUSUL | computer13137: has it executable permisions set? have you added it to the boot secuece? | 15:31 |
| amenado | ApOgEE--> and once you mount then watch it see if it fails, and do not burn if it fails | 15:31 |
| Edulix_ | danand: ok I'll try | 15:31 |
| erUSUL | secuence* | 15:31 |
| Bappy | phlewpy: can u not download the package and just run it? | 15:31 |
| computer13137 | erUSUL, it's chmodded +X, hence why I can run it manually. By putting it into /etc/init.d I didn't add it to the boot sequence? | 15:31 |
| Edulix_ | danand: I wonder why ubuntu comes with a gui to enable smb shares but doesn't automatically do what you said | 15:31 |
| amenado | computer13137-> yes it has to have Sxx symlink or else doesnt get executed | 15:32 |
| erUSUL | computer13137: sudo update-rc.d scriptname defaults | 15:32 |
| computer13137 | erUSUL: Ah, I remember doing something like that in the past. | 15:32 |
| computer13137 | Thanks. | 15:32 |
| computer13137 | I'm rebooting now. | 15:32 |
| danand | Edulix_ - Never tried using the GUI so not sure :). Have you manually edited your /etc/samba/smb.conf file yet? | 15:34 |

| danand | _moro_bana_ - Run the command 'sudo smbpasswd -a USERNAME' - this will ask you to enter a password for your user. Then run 'sudo smbpasswd -e USERNAME' - this will enable the share for your user. After that you should be able to connect to the share. | 15:38 |

| ubotu | Copter: 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 » | 15:41 |
| MrStein | O, this might sound silly, but how does one change between two configured kbd layout (7.10) ? | 15:41 |

| foo-nix | when playing audio using xine, xine always notifys that the audio device is busy/used by a different program. is there some way to check which proccess locks my soundcard. Are there programs known for doing this? | 15:44 |

| Copter | ubotu: already said i installed envy too :P | 15:45 |
| Seraph | amenda: No | 15:45 |
| _moro_bana_ | danand: i registered, just have to talk to the bot, a sec | 15:45 |
| danand | MrStein - System -> Preferences -> keyboard ... then choose the layout tab | 15:45 |
| Seraph | amenado* | 15:45 |
| danand | _moro_bana_ - k | 15:45 |
| Copter | DRebellion: I already tried envy :/ | 15:45 |
| amenado | Seraph-> i'd try monitoring dmesg and look for error clues? | 15:45 |
| Seraph | amenado: how do i do that? | 15:45 |
| MrStein | danand: yes, I have setup two layouts there, between which I would like to choose one. But it does not work. Even if I select one as default, the other is in effect. | 15:45 |
| amenado | Seraph-> type dmesg and look near the end | 15:45 |
| foo-nix | Secondly, I found out my kernel only loads these modules at boot: fuse, lp and sbp2. Should it not also load a module for my soundcard, and isn't this very poor (in number). I found this information form /etc/modules. | 15:46 |
| Seraph | amenado: There are some I/O buffer errors... but it works fine on windows | 15:47 |
| asker | amenado: thanks. i need a very fast solution! | 15:47 |
| amenado | foo-nix-> fuser or lsof tools can tell you which process hogs the device or file | 15:47 |
| HymnToLife | foo-nix: the modules in /etc/modules are not the only ones that get loaded at startup | 15:47 |
| asker | got another solution by packing it with bzip2. | 15:48 |
| HymnToLife | udev also treis to load the modules for your hardware | 15:48 |
| HymnToLife | and usually does a good job at it :p | 15:48 |
| sinbox | foo-nix: lsof | grep /dev/snd | 15:48 |
| _moro_bana_ | danand: did you see the pm | 15:48 |

| bhsx | howdy... how do i define what apps i'm adding to the menu in Sys>Prefs>Main Menu? all i see is the 'name' and 'comment' fields... how the heck is it supposed to know what the link is to? | 15:50 |
| amenado | Seraph-> try to use it in windows first to make sure no errors? and then use ubuntu's ntfs-3g support to play with it? | 15:50 |
| Startkill-ubuntu | Estoy probando el ubunto, hace buen tiempo me dejaron un cd-live de la version 5.0 | 15:50 |

| ubotu | Startkill-ubuntu: Aquí solamente hablamos inglés. Para Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es - allí obtendrá más ayuda. | 15:50 |
| amenado | bhsx-> look into gconf-editor | 15:50 |
| MrStein | danand: found it. I had to install the keyboard indicato panel applet | 15:51 |
| Startkill-ubuntu | lo estoy ejecutando en una maquina virtual vmware workstation, y deseo instalarlo en el disco duro pero de la mauina virtual, como hago eso? | 15:51 |
| bhsx | amenado: shouldn't the option be there if they're going to supply an app to add apps to the menu?? | 15:51 |
| Startkill-ubuntu | ubuntu, ok :) | 15:51 |
| jpatrick | Startkill-ubuntu: /join #ubuntu-es | 15:51 |
| amenado | bhsx the option is in gconf-editor ? | 15:51 |
| Startkill-ubuntu | gracias, no sabia... lo del ingles.. buscare en otro, gracias | 15:52 |
| Seraph | amenado: Managed to solve it :D I just played with fstab, bye! | 15:52 |

| Hackel | If I have chrooted to a mounted filesystem image, can anyone tell me what I need to do in order to run X applications within the chroot? I've copied over .X11-unix and .ICE-unix but still get connection refused to the X server (running outside the chroot). | 15:52 |
| * axelpaxel is bored | 15:52 | |
| amenado | bhsx-> you are asking me why they designed as such? you are barking on the wrong tree | 15:53 |
| void^ | Hackel: .Xauthority | 15:53 |
| bhsx | i know i know... it's just that there's lots of missing features like that right now in hardy.. needs a lot of finishing work | 15:53 |
| Gabriel_ | Hey... I need to to remove Ubuntu from one of my machines but I can't figure out how to do that exactly... I figured I could just pop in an XP CD and install it but it's not letting me boot from it.. | 15:53 |
| bhsx | like no wep key field in nm-applet | 15:53 |
| foo-nix | Then, Would someone know why xine says that the audio device is locked by some other proccess or busy? I had this problem before on my desktop (this is my laptop). I checked alsa website, and I ahve a supported card, I checked wheter the medules were loaded, I did a modprobe just to be sure, I checked aplay -l, and my card wa slisted as Intel, I tried alsamixer to check mjted stuff (which of course would not explain my problem). I have | 15:54 |
| foo-nix | I feeling I am at a dead end :P | 15:54 |
| bhsx | things like that... otherwise hardy is friggin amazing... just needs some polishing | 15:54 |
| darkblue_B | how can I change the log options for Apache2 - so that the logs dont roll over every 2 days? instead let them go for 2 weeks? I have a very low volume server | 15:54 |
| foo-nix | *muted | 15:54 |
| void^ | Hackel: also, mount -o bind instead of copying .X11-unix might work better | 15:54 |
| amenado | bhsx honestly, i dont like those gui, to me gnome is not intuitive, but in command line, one should be able to activate/deactivate features.. | 15:54 |
| foo-nix | Ah, the sound applet of gnome also says the device is bliocked when trying to do a test | 15:54 |
| === lipsin is now known as lipsinOffline | ||
| darkblue_B | what is a "command line fanaftic" ? | 15:55 |
| legend2440 | bhsx: make sure your selecting New Item in menu editor and in command field is where you type the command for the program you want to run | 15:55 |
| Ax-Ax | What is the name of the standard Terminal Server app? (For cli use) | 15:56 |
| bhsx | legend2440: there is no 'command' field | 15:56 |

| FFVV | Hey guys | 15:57 |
| === whites is now known as Bappy | ||
| Hackel | void^: I tried copying .Xauthority (from my home directory, no?), but this didn't seem to have any effect. Are you suggesting to mount my real /tmp over the chrooted /tmp with -o bind? | 15:57 |
| bhsx | there's only 'name' and 'comment' | 15:57 |
| amenado | Gabriel_-> are you sure you want to remove ubuntu in a specific partition? this is the best time to test that command rm -rf * -- off course cd to that ubuntu dir | 15:57 |
| danand | foo-nix - have you tried rebooting or looking for processes that may be blocking the sound card with the 'ps -A' command? | 15:57 |
| Bappy | helloo | 15:57 |
| FFVV | Was wondering if anyone can help, ive made a few new users on ubuntu but it gives permission denied for everything, like trying to start new processes, rm -rf folder gives permission denied, how do i fix it? | 15:57 |
| crackerjackz | dell wont send my mom a new mouse because i put ubuntu on her computer.... | 15:57 |
| crackerjackz | can they really do that | 15:58 |
| foo-nix | danand: No, thank youfor the hint | 15:58 |
| Bappy | im having trouble with screen res | 15:58 |
| crackerjackz | their trying to say it violates her warranty | 15:58 |
| Bappy | im stuck at 640x480 at 50hz... someone said try vga=791 at grub but i hav tried and cannot work out how to... | 15:58 |
| differentreality | i have a laptop with ubuntu 7.10 could someone guide me through installing/configuring the bluetooth device ? it does find other devices (for example my mobile phone) but when i hit connect i get an error saying "Please check the spelling and try again" | 15:58 |
| void^ | Hackel: i usually bind /dev, /proc and /tmp when working with X from within a chroot | 15:58 |
| Hackel | void^: Ah, binding /tmp worked! I'll also do dev and proc now, thanks! | 15:59 |
| amenado | Bappy-> i suggested that, during boot, at the grub menu, e to edit and add vga=791 | 15:59 |
| legend2440 | bhsx: yes there is only Name and comment under "New Menu" but under "New Item " there are fields for Type Name Command and Comment. Are you using gutsy? | 16:00 |
| Bappy | ok, i couldnt work out how to do that :s so hit e and add a 'new' line at the bottom? | 16:00 |
| danand | foo-nix - you could try a script to check if any processes are using the sound card ... could pastebin one that i use if you like... Not sure it will work 100% but maybe worth a shot... | 16:00 |
| BlueFighter | hi | 16:00 |
| Gabriel_ | I'm kind of out of it and somewhat new to Ubuntu... I have it installed on a unpartitioned hard drive and need to remove it from that one computer and put it on another one I have. I'm not really exactly what you are asking me to do... | 16:01 |
| amenado | Bappy nope, when you get to the grub menu, press esc, then down arrow key to kernel line, then press e and add vga=791 on same line, then press esc and b to boot | 16:01 |
| Roooty | xompizfusion: Thanks! | 16:02 |
| bhsx | legend2440: haha, ok so i was WAY quick to judge on that and should've paid closer attention :) | 16:02 |
| bhsx | my bad | 16:02 |
| foo-nix | danand: That would be awesome | 16:02 |
| ApOgEE- | i have an mpg file, i convert it to sue+bin using vcdimager, then use bchunk to make it iso and then mount it.. still i cannot view the video | 16:03 |
| ApOgEE- | *cue+bin | 16:03 |
| amenado | Gabriel_-> you just wanted to remove right? and not moving it over to another system? then just rm -rf * the partition will still be there, so you have to repartition the disk to make use of the occupied spaces | 16:03 |
| foo-nix | I have artsd running, but that is a kde sound demon right, could it 'interfere' with esd? | 16:04 |
| amenado | bhsx-> yes its badddd to complain..hehe | 16:04 |
| MrMorkel | Hello, does anybody know how i can see the kernel options from grub in /proc/ ? | 16:04 |
| Gabriel_ | Yeah.. I feel stupid asking this but what do you mean by 'just rm -rf*' | 16:04 |
| amenado | MrMorkel-> what options are you referring to? | 16:04 |
| kestir | hi, in my System>Preferences menu there used to be an item for "Fonts" but it's gone. Can someone tell me what it si? | 16:04 |
| kestir | is* | 16:04 |
| Araneidae | Can anyone tell me how to arrange for my choice of module (kqemu) to be automatically modprobe'd at startup? | 16:04 |

| raj | hello, iam a new to ubuntu. i want to know how to get realteck sound driver ( manager). | 16:05 |

| bappy | vgaa=791 does not appear to have made any difference | 16:06 |
| interfear | what happened to the ubuntu sources.list generator at ubuntu-nl.org | 16:06 |
| bappy | *vga | 16:06 |
| interfear | anyone have a link to another one? | 16:06 |
| MrMorkel | amenado : i wirte at the moment a preseed file, and search for the boot parameters in the default installation when you set "Germany" as country | 16:07 |
| amenado | Gabriel_-> on a terminal, you do it really as sudo rm -rf * sudo to be as root.. | 16:07 |
| kestir | hi, in my System>Preferences menu there used to be an item for "Fonts" but it's gone. Can someone tell me what it si? | 16:07 |
| interfear | I just installed ubuntu 7.10 and its telling me my system is up to date which is impossible.. usually when I would install i would get a bunch of updates right afterwards.. whats wrong | 16:07 |
| ApOgEE- | have anyone really burn a vcd from an mpg file in ubuntu? i wonder if this problem on happen on my laptop | 16:07 |
| amenado | bappy vga not vgaa | 16:07 |

| t-rex | salve atutti | 16:08 |
| MrMorkel | ok i have found it /proc/cmdline | 16:08 |
| amenado | MrMorkel-> ahh then locale is what you seek.. | 16:08 |
| ApOgEE- | is it impossible to burn a vcd from an mpg file in ubuntu? | 16:08 |
| MrMorkel | locale=de_DE <- This was it | 16:08 |

| amenado | bappy-> so you are stuck at 600x480 ? your video card senses your monitor can only safely do that rezolution..so it uses the safest.. | 16:09 |
| foo-nix | Which should I ue? artsd, esd or alsa? | 16:09 |
| bappy | any way to override? this monitor should do 1024x768 | 16:09 |

| Gabriel_ | It is telling me 'rm: invalid option -- *' | 16:11 |

| lalalal | how can i find where my linux partition is on my laptop? no windows installed | 16:12 |

| mobin | I need a help regarding the fonts in ubuntu. Is there any sinhala font in ubuntu | 16:12 |
| unop__ | lalalal, run this command. sudo fdisk -l | 16:12 |

| asymptote | does anyone use a voice client like gtalk that works in Ubuntu? | 16:12 |
| legend2440 | kestir: what do you have checked under visual effects? | 16:13 |
| magnetron | asymptote: i use ekiga. it worksz | 16:13 |
| wratnik | i am also able to type commands on other machine but i don't see output. i can invoke some command that would possibly acknowledge my 1st computer about the other one.. hm? | 16:13 |

| magnetron | asymptote: no, google does not allow that | 16:14 |
| amenado | wratnik how are you connected to the other computer? you ssh in? how did you get a shell from the other host without the monitor? | 16:14 |
| azexian | asymptote: sorry, I didn't see the voice bit | 16:14 |
| Stroganoff | whats the graphical frontend to install manually downloaded .deb packages per double click? | 16:14 |
| Daisuke_Ido | asymptote, skype :D | 16:14 |
| asymptote | azexian, it's ok | 16:14 |
| azexian | asymptote: skype perhaps? or does it have to be over google? | 16:14 |
| wratnik | i am sitting at the computer with the monitor, the second computer has no monitor, it is only turned on, with windows running, with console on desktop, so i can blindly type to console. | 16:14 |
| unop__ | FFVV, use the !pastebin (do not paste in here) and show us all of the command and output you have there | 16:14 |
| kestir | legend2440: alright, ill poke around in the ccsm menu | 16:15 |
| asymptote | azexian, all of my friends use gtalk so I'd rather use that | 16:15 |
| Daisuke_Ido | wratnik, pick up a cheap kvm and you can share the monitor | 16:15 |

| asymptote | azexian, I used to use Jabbin but apparently it installs rootkits on your computer and doesn't seem to be supported anymore | 16:15 |
| amenado | wratnik you are indeed like those two boys... how do you expect to see things if you dont have a shell to view what you type? | 16:15 |
| foo-nix | which is kded, might bring kde deamons to live | 16:15 |

| kestir | Unlimited: if you're interested in running beta software and deal wtih bugs, run beta | 16:16 |

| kestir | Unlimited: if you want stable software, go with stable | 16:16 |
| Stroganoff | what is the name of the graphical dpkg frontend, that install .debs and gets dependencies on double click? | 16:16 |
| azexian | I've never used jabbin personally, but it's bound to be there somewhere, someone will still have it, I wouldn't worry to much if it's supported or not, that's the freedom of ubuntu, don't feel restricted | 16:16 |
| MrMorkel | has anybody a link to a tutorial how i can create a Pressed with LVM on 7.10? | 16:16 |
| amenado | wratnik-> maybe you ought to visit #windows as a reminder! | 16:16 |
| lalalal | im following the instructions for fixing my grub(error 17) but im not sure which is my linux partition...typing the "mount" showed several directories.....which one? | 16:17 |
| ethan961 | ##windows | 16:17 |
| amenado | MrMorkel-> is LVM even supported with LVM ? visit this.. | 16:17 |

| yoandy | Unlimited: i'm runnung hardy, its stable enough, at least for me | 16:17 |
| Stroganoff | ok its "gdebi" | 16:17 |
| unop__ | FFVV, please do not include parts of the error, include _all_ of it, _including_ the command you typed .. it gives us a context to put those errors in and helps troubleshoot better | 16:17 |
| MrMorkel | amenado: i the preeseed example is a lvm option, so i think its supportet | 16:18 |
| foo-nix | danand: Would you have that script for me? | 16:18 |
| FFVV | that was all that was in putty, i hightlighted it all | 16:18 |

| amenado | MrMorkel-> https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/installation-guide/i386/index.html | 16:18 |
| MrMorkel | amenado: thx but ther is nothing about lvm | 16:19 |
| amenado | MrMorkel ahh it is RAID that is not supported, but somehow my thinking is you need LVM to have raid.. | 16:19 |
| kommer | Seeking help with resolution | 16:19 |
| amenado | MrMorkel thats correct i dont see LVM support..so not sure where you have seen that option | 16:20 |

| ale1 | Can ubuntu be used for RHCE exam preparation? --- just to understand Linux well. I really can't stand RedHat/CentOS! | 16:25 |
| HardyOne | !ati | stinger05 | 16:25 |
| unop__ | ale1, errm, redhat can be very different to ubuntu especially how packages and the filesystem are laid out, best you use redhat/fedora to prepare on | 16:26 |
| ubotu | stinger05: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 16:26 |
| foo-nix | danand: pfff, I got no output :) | 16:26 |
| ompaul | ale1 no | 16:26 |
| HardyOne | ale1, ubuntu is debian based so not sure how it will help with RH | 16:26 |
| foo-nix | I will try installing kubuntu | 16:26 |
| lalalal | hardy one: but how can i do that? | 16:26 |
| magnetron | ale1: ubuntu is a great distro for studying Linux and open source software. | 16:26 |
| danand | foo-nix - bah!! have you tried rebooting?? | 16:26 |
| riotkittie | yea, if it's the RHCE you're prepping for, it only makes sense to use.... red hat :p | 16:26 |
| lalalal | hardy one: but how can i do that? | 16:26 |
| jumpie2 | :) | 16:27 |
| HardyOne | lalalal, the live cd should automount your HD | 16:27 |
| AlexHoover | Quick question. Why doesn't my Windows/Mac PCs pick up my Ubuntu server? I've enabled Samba and filesharing, and also allowed access to the SAMBA ports. | 16:27 |
| amenado | ale1-> and when it comes to using RPM..ubuntu will not assist you much | 16:27 |
| ompaul | !samba | AlexHoover (the answer should be here | 16:27 |
| amenado | ale1-> may i suggest open suse or the older suse 9.3 | 16:27 |
| AlexHoover | !samba | 16:28 |
| ubotu | AlexHoover (the answer should be here: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 16:28 |
| AlexHoover | Ah, thanks | 16:28 |
| lalalal | hardyone: yes but can i access my data on hdd through live cd? | 16:28 |
| HardyOne | lalalal, yes | 16:28 |
| amenado | lalalal-> only if you mounted the partition where your data resides | 16:28 |
| lalalal | hardyone:ok...but how? | 16:28 |
| ale1 | Thanks guyz! | 16:28 |
| liverpudlian | use mount command | 16:28 |
| HardyOne | !mount | 16:29 |
| ubotu | Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in !GNOME under !Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For !Edgy and later, see !fstab and !DiskMounter | 16:29 |
| unop__ | amenado, even suse differs a bit from redhat atleast in the context of the RHCE exam -- it's best he uses a redhat system | 16:29 |
| DefineKyleThyne | Hey, whenever i try to boot with GRUB it gives me error 22. I've surfed around and have tried to restore it and I'm kinda struggling. Can someone help me out? | 16:29 |
| amenado | unop__-> i agree, little subtleties..and may cause him not to pass | 16:29 |
| amenado | like amanda | 16:29 |
| unop__ | amenado, its also the system-* tools to configure this and that, suse just tries to house all that under one roof with yast | 16:30 |
| akaineko | ermmm... there was a channel for Ubuntu 8.04 ? was there ? | 16:31 |
| lalalal | is there any linux lice cd only for that kind of job like saving data(when there is no other way) (...i'm in real trouble!) | 16:31 |
| unop__ | akaineko, #ubuntu+1 | 16:31 |
| amenado | unop__-> yep, thats why my preference for suse, yast is one stop tool which i like | 16:31 |

| Yazan- | Anyone in this room uses THOMSON speedtouch 330?? | 16:32 |
| unop__ | dorkface, ubuntu has no root password :) sudo prompts for _your_ password which is why you need to keep it safe, also, you can unalias aliases, so not a very good idea :) | 16:33 |

| a-v | unop__, you may be right :) | 16:41 |
| amenado | the only known telecom manufacturer i know of close to that is really Thompson | 16:41 |

| Yazan- | Ok, for the 16th+ time I'm going to try getting my internet on. Going to reboot into ubuntu, so wish me luck! | 16:48 |

| Djmack | ... | 16:48 |
| tomd123 | unop__: I allocated my resources in the start so it took up the space in the beginning, it would have crashed in the beginning if it was running out of memory | 16:49 |

| ubuntu_ | When I use terminal it tells me that I am not root. Now I have seen where they talk about sudo as you guys pointed out but I can't find a to access it | 17:20 |

| AnAnt | what is a Ubuntero ? | 17:30 |
| nyarly | smallfry, in a term type "sudo apt-get install xscreensaver" | 17:30 |
| Tommstein | Odd-rationale, that's why i was wondering, i know it shaded back when i used gentoo but now i'm looking for what settings compiz might have changed and that one was different from what i remembered (not that i ever use it) | 17:30 |

| blah569 | Ooops, sorry. I didn't mean two questionmarks. | 17:31 |
| Yazan- | nyarly: They told me to reboot into ubuntu(did that), then he tells me to run firmware-extractor. firmware-extractor is .exe file, so how will i go on running it? | 17:32 |
| ubuntu_ | hey can someone explain this to me | 17:32 |
| nyarly | blah569, try and right-click on the panels and tell them to maximize | 17:32 |
| legend2440 | Yazan-: type in terminal ./firmware-extractor from the directory where you saved the file | 17:32 |
| ubuntu_ | i just hit ALT + F2 and entered sudo mkdir /home/ubuntu/test and it didn't do anything | 17:32 |
| blah569 | ok | 17:32 |
| Yazan- | legend2440: Please be sure thats it because it really isn't easy to keep rebooting into ubuntu constantly | 17:32 |
| ubuntu_ | then i did this ALT + F2 sudo /home/ubuntu/test and i checked the box run terminal and it worked | 17:33 |
| Yazan- | Anyways, I don't have much choice. I will go and try | 17:33 |
| ubuntu_ | crap | 17:33 |
| ubuntu_ | i forgot the mkdir | 17:33 |
| blah569 | There is not a "maximize" option. | 17:33 |
| Odd-rationale | ubuntu_: if you use alt+f2 instead of a terminal, use gksudo instead of sudo | 17:33 |
| smellynose | blah569: You could nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf :) | 17:33 |
| blah569 | What? | 17:34 |
| smellynose | blah569: Or: krandrtray | 17:34 |
| ubuntu_ | ohhhhhh ok so wait if i am using terminal then i write sudo infront of everything. if i use ALT+F2 i should use gksudo | 17:34 |
| ubuntu_ | ?? | 17:34 |
| blah569 | I am confused. | 17:35 |
| Odd-rationale | ubuntu_: use gksudo for sudo+graphical (synaptic, gedit, etc) use just sudo for command line apps (apt-get, aptitude, nano, vi, etc | 17:35 |
| legend2440 | Yazan-: first right click file firmware-extractor and then properties>permissions and make sure execute is checked | 17:35 |
| nyarly | blah569, i can't remember what the setting is actually called, I don't run gnome any more, but there is a panel option that allows it to stretch to the full screen | 17:36 |
| randorfer | ubuntu_ -- alt+f2 is primarily used for running applications, for normal command line things, ie making a new folder with mkdir, you should use the terminal... | 17:36 |

| blah569 | I got the bottom pannel to expand, but the top one is not D: | 17:41 |
| ubuntu_ | gang, why should i use sudo or gksudo as opposed to going in as root, can't i screw things up just as bad? | 17:41 |
| deniz__ | does wine 0.9.46 exist for gutsy cuz the oldest i can find is 0.9.47 | 17:41 |
| blah569 | If I move it to the side, it expands full, but if I move it back up, it does not. | 17:41 |
| algyz | deniz__: install the newest :) | 17:42 |
| nyarly | blah569, you could create a new panel and see if it fills the entire area and then move the panel apps over | 17:42 |
| deniz__ | algyz, i have the newest but i need the oldest for windows live messenger to work and ya i no bout pidgin and all that but its not a huge problem wat i need for now is the offline message emulation thing for pidgin and i dont no were to get it | 17:42 |
| dougsko | ubuntu_: sudo is nice because it gives you a finer grain of control over the privileged commands a user can run | 17:43 |
| dougsko | ubuntu_: for a single user system, it doesnt matter | 17:43 |
| algyz | deniz__: use pidgin | 17:43 |
| CaTaLiP | wtf means sudu?? | 17:43 |

| algyz | deniz__: old good wines are here http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/archive/index.html btw. use pidgin, it understands msn :) | 17:44 |
| bharadwaj | dougsko:you have any idea about the process they have listed in the doc? | 17:45 |
| ubuntu_ | dougsko good point, sudo or gksudo is good if your need more privildges, with 1 root who cares what you do | 17:45 |
| deniz__ | algyz, i no, i also use pidgin but i just wanted that feature | 17:45 |
| algyz | deniz__: apt-cache search msn in terminal | 17:45 |
| Stroganoff | what packages do i need for "Windows Printer via SAMBA" to appear in the cups web frontend? | 17:45 |
| blah569 | How do you use a .emereled theme? | 17:45 |
| algyz | deniz__: we can see jabber and kopete there, try them | 17:46 |
| deniz__ | algyz, ya but those r kde apps :( | 17:46 |
| Stroganoff | http://www.abload.de/img/cups197.png <--- what packages am i missing? i got samba, cupsys and gutenberg | 17:47 |
| dougsko | Stroganoff: probably just the 'samba' package, if anything | 17:48 |
| dougsko | oops | 17:48 |
| Stroganoff | samba is running fine | 17:48 |
| dougsko | maybe windows isnt set up to share the printer properly. windows and samba have always been a pain for me | 17:49 |
| Stroganoff | if so, that should be a problem later on | 17:49 |
| Stroganoff | windows isn't configured for AppSocket, IPP etc. either :p | 17:50 |
| deniz__ | is there any app that turns pdf's into jpegs i need such a program for studying purposes (teacher gives pdfs and my psp can view jpegs) | 17:50 |

| burakmarulcu | 31m | 17:52 |
| burakmarulcu | u | 17:52 |
| dougsko | Stroganoff: well, im not really sure. my best troubleshooting advice when it comes to windows+sabma+linux is try making the windows machine's username and password the same as your username and pass on the linux box | 17:52 |
| Stroganoff | deniz__: http://pspupdates.qj.net/index.php?pg=49&aid=9297 | 17:52 |
| Startkill-ubuntu | para instalar aplicativos, lo comun es entrar al gestor de paquetes synaptic? | 17:52 |
| deniz__ | Stroganoff, do i need a custom firmware cuz i have one but does it matter how recent it is? | 17:53 |
| Startkill-ubuntu | por ejemplo, deseo instalar el mysql-server, pero veo que alli solo hay la version 4.???, como hago para version 5.?? | 17:53 |

| dimitree | unop__, gosh you saved my life haha thank you very much :) | 18:02 |
| Paolo | tanks | 18:02 |
| unop__ | deniz__, yes, obviously you need to be in the directory that the pdf is in, otherwise how would convert find it, and yes, you are allowed to customize how you want the output to be -- more info in the convert manpage | 18:03 |
| wael | hi , can somebody help me i want to remove ubuntu from my laptop | 18:04 |

| unop__ | deniz__, errm, what do you think? :) | 18:05 |
| DeadLy_sp_ | unop__, hello :) | 18:05 |

| unop__ | deniz__, i dont imply you are saying stupid things, i dont want to confuse you any further, thats all | 18:08 |
| trey__ | =( | 18:08 |
| Flannel | wael: Just reformat/remove the partitions, and put the windows bootloader back on | 18:08 |
| unop__ | Rukus, all hardy support in #ubuntu+1 | 18:08 |
| Rukus | wael if you are interested in doing that, when you install your next operating system, it will ask how you want to use your disk, and voila. | 18:08 |
| Rukus | thanks | 18:08 |
| xand_ | hi all, i would like to know if there's a tool (don't know if there is for other OS's) which i can generate a pdf file with bookmarks from a pdf file without it | 18:09 |
| carlzenox | ok when i do that it dont show know errors but it dont show the script working either | 18:09 |
| bharadwaj | dougsko: oh yeah..I have gone through the debian doc and also the ubuntu. Both were just the same except for the name. Even the preseeding method was mentioned as same. I just couldn'y understand the actuall purpose of the preseed file in the root directory of CD. Int documentation it was specified as intird file | 18:09 |
| deniz__ | unop__, i have a very important question: can i convert multiple files at the same time like a select all kind of feature and have them ALL converted into seperate jpegs? and its not exactly necessary but is there a GUI? (im almost done downloading imagemagick) | 18:10 |

| whileimhere | Are there any sites that have a list of ideas to speed up the GNOME desktop? | 18:10 |
| Jaffarkelshac | Arky44, you will need to restart, and choose windows | 18:11 |
| dougsko | bharadwaj: im pretty sure you only need to mess around with that if you want to alter the kernel | 18:11 |
| heromero | hello all | 18:11 |
| deniz__ | Jaffarkelshac, search ubuntu wiki, it has a guide on fixing that (unfortunately i never understood it myself) | 18:11 |
| Arky44 | Jaffarkelshac: thanks so much! | 18:11 |

| wael | Rukus: well i have windows on a different partition . i just have to delete ubuntu partition and windows will work correctly?? | 18:13 |
| Flannel | Paolo: Depending on whta realm of MATLAB you're using, octave will suffice (it's still not comparable in certain genres) | 18:13 |
| unop__ | Paolo, sure - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MATLAB | 18:13 |
| deniz__ | Jaffarkelshac, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351 | 18:13 |

| Paolo | dougsko: but it have only script, and simulink? | 18:13 |
| bharadwaj | dougsko: Oh thank you man! thank you very much hope all these links would take me where I want..any help I'de surely come here again.. | 18:14 |
| Flannel | Paolo: but, MATLAB is available for Linux, ah, like that page says. | 18:14 |
| dougsko | Paolo: octave can do pretty much everything but simulink | 18:14 |

| nonix4 | Hmm... [old faq iirc, didn't find tho]: Why does XVideo have ridiculously gray "blacks" on them intel gfx chips? Some form of gamma correction gone wrong? | 18:19 |

| Arelis | Can anyone please help me fix some "problems" with Ubuntu? For example, slow Flash video playback, and when shown at fullscreen, playing very slow-mo. My video card is an ATI Radeon 9600, and i've been experiencing overall slowness with both Ubuntu and Debian, although in Debian it was even slower (could just be my eyes deceiving me). With about 3 application windows open, things start to slow down. I have 786MB of RAM which isn't very far fro | 18:19 |
| vikram | Beererde, can you add 3rd part repos to it like with yum? | 18:19 |
| mEck0 | dougsko, ok | 18:20 |
| Arelis | Oh, and did my message get cut off, just there? | 18:20 |
| Beererde | vikram: add it to /etc/apt/sources.list | 18:20 |
| tux97 | !wine | 18:20 |
| ubotu | 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. | 18:20 |
| suicidepills | Arelis, I think it's an ATI driver problem | 18:20 |
| vikram | Beererde, thank you sir. | 18:20 |
| trey__ | unop__ /thanks! | 18:20 |
| Arelis | suicidepills: How do i fix it? | 18:20 |
| suicidepills | I have a 9800 and from what I've read, the ATI drivers for linux are dismal | 18:20 |
| suicidepills | you gotta wait, I think | 18:20 |
| suicidepills | for ATI to release some decent drivers | 18:20 |
| suicidepills | they're still pretty young at this point (the drivers I mean) | 18:21 |
| forever | hello . can someone help me? Blur Windows dont work | 18:21 |
| Beererde | forever: #compiz | 18:21 |
| Arelis | Do you think the Open Source drivers will work better in my case? | 18:21 |
| suicidepills | Are you running compiz? | 18:21 |
| jpoesen | Hi. do I understand correctly that I should use a mainboard with an nvidia based chipset instead of an ATI based chipset to avoid display problems? | 18:22 |
| Arelis | suicidepills: Not right now. And certainly not with the propietary ati drivers, because they don't allow that. But with the open source drivers i DO get compiz. | 18:22 |

| DeadLy_sp_ | unop__, with -> TITLES=`more $DIR/roms.dat | grep mslug2 | awk -F "|" '{print $2}'` <- give fine the title name, but i need change the grep part for search other titles :( hm maybe grep ${ROM/%.zip/} | 18:22 |

| Beererde | hi. in WHICH package is libstdc++.a for 32 bit development on 64 bit machines? | 18:22 |
| dougsko | Arelis: when things start getting slow, use tools like top and ps to find out whats going on. like whats hogging up your ram or cpu | 18:22 |
| grandpa | it does nothing when i type sudo iwconfig though. | 18:22 |
| grandpa | any ideas? | 18:22 |
| suicidepills | Arelis, the newest ATI drivers DO allow you to run compiz, but 2D is veeeery slow. FireFox, for example, is slow as a dog | 18:23 |
| Arelis | dougsko: I do that every once in a while, and usually firefox is on top | 18:23 |
| suicidepills | Flash apps in particular seem to eat resources like a fat kid | 18:23 |
| schweeb | Beererde: there's a utility called apt-file you can use to find out | 18:23 |
| Arelis | suicidepills: With which drivers? The restricted ones, or the OSS ones? | 18:23 |
| Beererde | schweeb: i tried, but it does not find anything | 18:23 |
| suicidepills | All of them, I've afriad | 18:23 |
| schweeb | Beererde: it's like apt-get, but it downloads the file lists for all packages, and makes them searchable | 18:23 |
| unop_ | DeadLy_sp, what do you want the grep part to output? | 18:23 |
| schweeb | Beererde: did you do an apt-file update? | 18:23 |
| Beererde | schweeb: hmm ok i'll try | 18:24 |
| suicidepills | ACtually, now that I think about it, I think that a Flash player problem. It started with the newest release | 18:24 |
| Arelis | suicidepills: hmm.. so right now my card is poorly supported? | 18:24 |
| rencore_ | is there a way i can move the notification area to my desktop with like a widget or something | 18:24 |
| suicidepills | Gotta love linux, eh? ;) | 18:24 |
| suicidepills | Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's the case | 18:24 |
| Arelis | suicidepills: that's a bummer.. hmm.. | 18:24 |
| suicidepills | I'm no guru, but I've spent DAYS searching and that's what I've found out | 18:24 |
| nadrosima | who can run conqueronline on wine. i try more way but cant run. | 18:24 |
| suicidepills | A friend of mine actually went out and bought an NVIdia card 'cause they're better supported | 18:24 |

| dougsko | Arelis: on top for cpu? how about memory? how much mem is being used when your system bogs down? is it the use of memory that is actually slowing your system down? there are a still a lot of variables you can start to narrow down | 18:25 |
| nadrosima | yep | 18:25 |

| dougsko | Arelis: i didnt say i wanted to look at it :) i know FF is a pig. im just suggesting things to think about when this happens | 18:26 |

| nadrosima | what is this i am here and hello | 18:27 |
| tux97 | !wine install | 18:27 |

| Bellar | I just downloaded and burnt a CD with Ubuntu 7.10, and I am trying to install it on a system. The CD has been running for more than two hours, and only the desktop and a window titled "Install" are shown. | 18:36 |
| grandpa | unop, what do i do? | 18:36 |
| Bellar | I need to get this installed. | 18:37 |
| gpm | Bellar: click on the install icon to start the installer? | 18:37 |
| unop__ | grandpa, you have to make sure the wireless device is detected by the kernel -- open up a terminal and type this command - sudo tail -f /var/log/dmesg # and then, unplug the device and plug it back in, tell us what you see in the terminal | 18:37 |
| Bellar | I did, that's why the window titled "Install" is shown. It is blank. | 18:37 |
| Yazan- | Ok. I am done with this. All my attempts on getting my internet connection on Ubuntu is simply failing. I no longer have that interest in ubuntu!

| Svenstaro | Yazan-, you should run a virtual machine in your ubuntu which acts as an internal router, prolly the easiest | 18:52 |

| ubotu | LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP.

| ubotu | Serveck: 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 | 19:33 |
| nael | Serveck, do you want to dual boot or just install? | 19:33 |
| Serveck | ok, its giving me [DR-DOS] c:\> | 19:33 |
| elpargo | Serveck: then there is your problem, an iso is an image file and should be burned as such, any real CD/Dvd burning software has the option, except build-in-windows-burner | 19:33 |
| meoblast001 | Serveck: did you burn the ISO file to the disc or did you use an ISO burning app to burn the ISO to the disc? | 19:33 |
| foo-nix | memstat: Do you mean the jackplugins at the rear of my machine? I don't really have that, since I have a laptop. Or do you mean an older version of the module? | 19:34 |
| calugor | Serveck, just follow the instructions on the install | 19:34 |
| memstat | foo-nix : you need to use synaptic package manager | 19:34 |
| Serveck | i burned the entire .iso file to the disc | 19:34 |
| amenado | SisyphusINC-> you have to look at your iptables rules to determine order | 19:34 |
| memstat | search for the linux backports for your kernel , install them and reboot | 19:34 |
| foo-nix | memstat: I did sudo apt-get install backports. | 19:34 |
| DIL | he said as data though | 19:34 |
| ompaul | Serveck, what kind of computer is it (processor disk memory) ? | 19:34 |
| SisyphusINC | amenado: and i assume thats not going to be easy | 19:34 |
| amenado | SisyphusINC-> you have to look at your iptables rules to determine order..typt sudo iptables -vL | 19:34 |
| memstat | i did too | 19:34 |
| xylog | Serveck: if you look at the dvd in windows explorer what do you see? | 19:34 |
| memstat | but it did not work | 19:34 |
| elpargo | Serveck: yes that's wrong, u need to burn it as an image. | 19:34 |
| xylog | just a single iso file ? | 19:34 |
| meoblast001 | Serveck: you did it wrong... you want to find an ISO burning application.. it will properly write the ISO to the disc, dragging and dropping and hitting burn wont do the trick.. i ran into the same problem when i first got linux | 19:35 |
| Serveck | its a standard amd-64 machine, 386 | 19:35 |
| memstat | i had to manually do it, why i dont know, but it worked for me | 19:35 |
| Serveck | oh, ok | 19:35 |
| calugor | bye kde and other k* | 19:35 |
| Serveck | aight, let me swap drives | 19:35 |
| foo-nix | memstat: what package do I need to install? | 19:35 |
| Serveck | im using my laptop now, installing it on desktop | 19:35 |
| memstat | what is your kernel version? | 19:35 |
| Serveck | i am doing separate drives | 19:35 |
| foo-nix | memstat: backports is not listed | 19:35 |
| amenado | SisyphusINC-> yes its not easy to just stare at the rules and say yep thats the one..a real test is necessary sometimes | 19:35 |
| foo-nix | memstat: one moment | 19:35 |
| memstat | foo-nix : k | 19:35 |
| meoblast001 | my microphone device isnt working and i have no idea why.... i hit record, and it records an empty sound | 19:36 |

| Yazan- | Guys, I really want to install linux(ubuntu) but the problem is that my family use all their files as .exe and there isn't a linux program for the same thing. Plus, at school, we use Windows applications(Word, excel, publisher etc) so it would be hard for me to use an OS at school and something else at home. | 19:36 |

| memstat | foo-nix: yours is generic kernel correct? | 19:37 |
| foo-nix | memstat: Every kernel update? | 19:37 |
| memstat | foo-nix: sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-generic | 19:37 |
| foo-nix | foo-nix: according to uname, yes | 19:37 |
| memstat | just run that | 19:37 |
| memstat | that should fix it | 19:37 |
| calugor | SisyphusINC, try with sudo ? | 19:38 |
| foo-nix | memstat: reboot? | 19:38 |
| memstat | then reboot after it is installed | 19:38 |
| memstat | yes | 19:38 |

| 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+) | 19:38 |

| memstat | foo-nix: its int eh ubuntu forums, came up after an update 2 weeks ago | 19:39 |
| foo-nix | memstat: help.ubuntu.com? | 19:39 |
| Serveck | wow, nero is stupid, it wants a CD-R disc, and i put in a DVD-R (all i have) it wont let me burn... | 19:39 |
| memstat | foo-nix: http://ubuntuforums.org/ | 19:39 |
| elpargo | calugor: hehe, did u ask if I'm runinng that with sudo grub, the answer is yes | 19:40 |
| foo-nix | memstat: Would it be appreciated when I made some report on this in the documentation/wiki? | 19:40 |
| memstat | foo-nix: very much so | 19:40 |
| foo-nix | memstat: A link ton the forum thread for example? | 19:40 |
| SisyphusINC | whats the point of the firestarter gui if its impotent | 19:40 |
| foo-nix | memstat: Since I read some fix my soundcard document, not mentioning thsi. | 19:40 |
| foo-nix | *this | 19:40 |
| memstat | let me find it | 19:40 |
| calugor | elpargo, Error 22: No such partition :o | 19:41 |
| elpargo | SisyphusINC: that will require us knowing what firestarter is | 19:41 |
| foo-nix | memstat: I dont think it is a good idea that I write some documentation on it, since I dont know the problem that well. I would just like to link is to the forum thread. | 19:41 |
| elpargo | calugor: yea that's the strange part, I'm putting in the partition grub is telling me. | 19:41 |
| meoblast001 | awesome | 19:41 |

| iositd | can someone give me a guide on how to set up a network boot? | 19:41 |

| Serveck | ok, is there any way to trick nero to burn a cd-R iso to burn onto a DVD-r? | 19:42 |
| amenado | iositd-> you tried to google for this topic yes? | 19:42 |
| Serveck | i dont have any cd's, only dvds | 19:42 |
| SisyphusINC | elpargo: well then is there some guide to directly editing the iptables | 19:42 |
| elpargo | Serveck: ummm i remember a long time ago I did that, I think there was a checkbox. | 19:43 |
| elpargo | SisyphusINC: man ? | 19:43 |
| iositd | amenado, no since this channel tends to have much better results ... google gives me so many possibilities, while the ppl from here have some experience with it sometimes | 19:43 |
| memstat | foo-nix: i will write a fix, there seems to be more fixesin the forum than the help site | 19:43 |
| elpargo | iositd: but then you won't learn | 19:43 |
| djjd | Is anyone familiar with sipie ?? | 19:43 |
| amenado | SisyphusINC-> http://iptables-tutorial.frozentux.net/iptables-tutorial.html | 19:44 |
| Serveck | hmm.. i only have blank dvd's, yet the .iso file i downloaded will not burn to it | 19:44 |
| Serveck | wants a cd | 19:44 |
| memstat | brb g2p | 19:44 |
| siloko | ok in case anyone is interested it seems like the problemis with newer dvd's (2004 onwards) | 19:44 |

| destrecht_ | is there a way to have multiple monitirs with ubuntu | 19:44 |
| siloko | i am able to play amistad ok which is from 2002 | 19:44 |
| iositd | elpargo, i'm more then willing to learn .. though attempting to do something which can be done more efficient, i still prefer the more efficient way | 19:45 |
| amenado | iositd-> try to google for one, and you may find it as easy ..if you get stuck we may assist you if we know... | 19:45 |
| siloko | and another one from 2002 | 19:45 |
| elpargo | Serveck: I recommend you get http://infrarecorder.sourceforge.net/ it's really nice and it doesn't bothers with that stupid check. | 19:45 |
| siloko | but the two i have tried from 2004 and 2005 both failed after the first chapter - it could be coincidence i suppose | 19:45 |
| Serveck | ok, thanks | 19:45 |
| amenado | iositd-> we did not magically just learned this from this channel, we do some reading on our own | 19:45 |
| elpargo | it's really small and useful. | 19:45 |

| Darkangel_ | amenado: first i tried instal from live cd but couldn't | 20:09 |
| grandpa | unop_, http://pastebin.com/d76e54eb5 | 20:09 |

| Yazan- | someone mentioned that I could get a virtual machine and make my DSL modem act as a router...who was it? | 20:09 |
| amenado | Darkangel_-> why not? do you have some kind of unique hw? | 20:09 |
| Darkangel_ | amenado: vista ntfs | 20:09 |

| grandpa | unop__, http://pastebin.com/d76e54eb5 | 20:10 |
| NTAuthority | memstat: the driver manager wouldn't work without an running X, which doesn't want to run with vesa :P | 20:10 |
| memstat | nt: install it then :) | 20:10 |
| frederic | unop__: does it mean nautilus has been removed ? | 20:10 |

| memstat | nt: ok vesa, u win there | 20:11 |
| amenado | Darkangel_-> after the partition or just booting? | 20:11 |
| Yazan- | amenado: Some guy told me that I should get virtual machine and make my dsl modem act as a router or something? | 20:11 |
| amenado | Darkangel_-> if you have a bad cd, then get one that is not bad, | 20:11 |
| unop__ | frederic, it appears so, type this in -- x-terminal-emulator | 20:11 |
| NTAuthority | only working driver seems to be radeonhd, and sometimes fglrx, and radeonhd probably still isn't in hardy? | 20:11 |
| dimas__ | memstat network monitor doesnt show much...just sending and receiving.. | 20:11 |
| unop__ | frederic, then in the terminal -- sudo apt-get install --reinstall nautilus | 20:11 |
| Darkangel_ | amenado:after i follow the live cd partition and start copy it stop at 73 | 20:11 |
| amenado | Yazan--> possible, but you have to have access to it first | 20:12 |

| memstat | well shit its time to head off to work....see yah all later | 20:12 |
| amenado | Henchmen21-> you use fdisk -l to tell you | 20:12 |
| Darkangel_ | amenado :it told me finlizing less than minite it was the best result | 20:12 |
| amenado | Darkangel_-> you have a bad iso burn? try it again | 20:12 |
| NTAuthority | Henchmen21: note that the partition number in grub starts at 0 | 20:12 |
| Darkangel_ | amenado : i download twice | 20:13 |
| Darkangel_ | amenado : burn over than 10 cd | 20:13 |
| amenado | Darkangel_-> your download maybe okay, but burning is not good | 20:13 |

| Darkangel_ | amenado : from vista | 20:13 |

| Serveck | horray! ubuntu successfully installed | 20:16 |
| amenado | Darkangel_-> so you have mandriva now installed? | 20:16 |
| unop__ | demogorgon15, head to #ubuntu+1 please | 20:17 |
| Serveck | that was quick.. | 20:17 |
| chazco | amenado - As i understand it the kernel 7.10 uses has some bugs with loopback that cause it to grind to a halt... will try that to eliminate truecrypt | 20:17 |
| Darkangel_ | amenado : yes | 20:17 |
| amenado | SisyphusINC-> amenado is the nick, use tab to auto complete | 20:17 |
| FYI | Help? my wireless nic has disappeared. I can't even recognize it. Restricted Drivers doesn't even have the firmware downloads available anymore | 20:17 |

| ikonia | FYI: you don't need to use cpas | 20:17 |
| Darkangel_ | amenado -> mandriva 2008 | 20:17 |
| ikonia | caps | 20:17 |
| FYI | !caps >ikonia | 20:18 |
| amenado | Darkangel_-> okay lets try something okay? are you up for it? | 20:18 |
| NTAuthority | Henchmen21: note that grub may still be problematic with cross-drive chainloads... | 20:18 |
| InvisiblePinkUni | I'm using Thunderbird on Ubuntu 7.10 with Gmail/Imap. When I sent an email with BCC the BCC field doesn't show up in Sent Mail folder. | 20:18 |
| ikonia | FYI, I know what caps is, I'm saying you don't need to use them | 20:18 |
| Henchmen21 | NTAuthority: any way to rectify that? | 20:18 |
| FYI | ikonia, you could have read the message i posted a line above it, and then have tried to suggest things to me | 20:18 |
| mijgfireg | ciao | 20:18 |

| 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 | 20:18 |
| Darkangel_ | amenado ->i'm now on vista i'm ready to do any thing | 20:18 |
| LjL | !helpme | FYI | 20:18 |
| ubotu | FYI: 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 | 20:18 |
| chazco | amenado - Can you mkfs via the /dev/loop0 interface? | 20:18 |
| LjL | !it | mijgfireg | 20:18 |
| ikonia | FYI, I did read it and I was thinking it through | 20:18 |
| ubotu | mijgfireg: Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! | 20:18 |
| ikonia | FYI: if you know not to use caps, don't do it | 20:18 |
| amenado | chazco yep, no problem | 20:18 |
| NTAuthority | @Henchmen21: my method is to simply test it, if it doesn't work, try more :) | 20:18 |
| Henchmen21 | ok | 20:19 |
| chazco | hmm... odd. Truecrypt states its an issue with the kernel, but that could suggest otherwise | 20:19 |
| Henchmen21 | NTAuthority: off to try thank you for the help, very much appreciated | 20:19 |
| FYI | sorry, sorry for using 4 capitalized letters followed by an exclamation point. the world is over. oh no! | 20:19 |
| amenado | chazco wait, maybe i used a different step..hang on | 20:19 |

| morghanphoenix | How do I send files over the network to a windows XP home box, my smb client will only connect to a pro box. | 20:20 |
| asymptote | grandpa, stop spamming please | 20:20 |
| unop__ | grandpa, hmm, that could be a good thing -- what did you get as output from the the set of commands? | 20:20 |
| kraft__ | hi | 20:20 |
| ikonia | morghanphoenix: it should connect to a home machine too | 20:20 |
| unop__ | patience grandpa | 20:20 |
| amenado | chazco-> can you do this.. follow along okay? as root modprobe loop; modprobe cryptoloop; modprobe aes | 20:20 |
| kraft__ | i have an issue with raid 5 + lvm | 20:21 |
| ikonia | kraft__: ask then | 20:21 |
| kraft__ | can anyone help? | 20:21 |
| kraft__ | ok | 20:21 |
| grandpa_ | unop__, sorry...but, did you get my pastebin? | 20:21 |
| RoadHazard | the egroupware people seem to be sleepin, anyone work with it? | 20:21 |
| unop__ | grandpa, nope, can you paste it again? | 20:21 |
| ikonia | morghanphoenix: xp home boxes can use work groups, just not domains, so samba should be fine | 20:21 |
| Darkangel_ | amenado _-> is it remove mandriva | 20:21 |
| kraft__ | moved disks to new comp, lost one of the raid5 set | 20:21 |
| amenado | chazco mkdir /home/diskimage; cd /home/diskimage; dd if=/dev/urandom of=disk-aes count 102400 | 20:21 |
| kraft__ | got the raid array back togeather in degraded mode | 20:21 |
| ikonia | kraft__: with you so far | 20:21 |
| grandpa_ | unop__, k | 20:21 |
| KalEl | by default md5sum thinks every file is a text file; how can i change the default to add the switch -b automatically? | 20:21 |
| chazco | amenado - It seems to work on a very small encrypted partition (Truecrypt doesnt use the modules) | 20:21 |
| ikonia | kraft__: degraded with just one disk missing ? | 20:22 |
| SisyphusINC | amenado: sry | 20:22 |
| grandpa_ | unop__,http://pastebin.com/dc12854 | 20:22 |
| kraft__ | ikonia: yep | 20:22 |
| grandpa_ | unop__, get that? | 20:22 |
| asymptote | morghanphoenix, you need to make sure your xp home box is running the smb service | 20:22 |
| ikonia | kraft__: go on...... | 20:22 |
| asymptote | or cifs | 20:22 |
| FYI | morghanphoenix: you could try going to places > connect to server and setting it up to connect to a 'windows share' | 20:22 |
| kraft__ | pvscan picked uo the ov | 20:22 |
| kraft__ | er, pv | 20:22 |
| ikonia | asymptote: windows machines don't run samba services | 20:22 |
| morghanphoenix | I can connect to the group, and my samba server shows up, but not the windows shareddocs folder | 20:22 |
| unop__ | KalEl, alias md5sum='md5sum -b' | 20:22 |
| LjL | KalEl, uhm, i think md5sum generally works fine with binary files without specifying the -b switch, though... | 20:22 |
| kraft__ | vgscan also worked | 20:22 |
| amenado | chazco losetup -e aes /dev/loop1 ./disk-aes; mkfs -t reiserfs /dev/loop1 and that should be it | 20:22 |
| ikonia | kraft__: sounds good | 20:22 |
| asymptote | ikonia, smb is not samba | 20:22 |
| KalEl | great thanks a lot unop__ | 20:22 |
| kraft__ | however when i try to mount the xfs volume a get errors | 20:22 |
| ikonia | asymptote: with is smb on a windows machine then ? | 20:23 |
| ikonia | kraft__: ok, what's the errors ? | 20:23 |
| amenado | Darkangel_-> how much space do you have on your hard disk? any room for ubuntu maybe around 10gig? | 20:23 |
| asymptote | ikonia, smb is Service Message Block and was created by IBM in 1983. It was then bought by Msft | 20:23 |
| ikonia | asymptote: that makes sense, thank you | 20:23 |
| asymptote | ikonia, np | 20:23 |
| kraft__ | mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/mapper/datavg-video, | 20:23 |
| twocarlo | microsoft is a monster | 20:23 |
| LjL | !ot | 20:23 |
| unop__ | grandpa, can you paste this now? sudo sh -c "iwlist scan; iwconfig" | 20:23 |
| Darkangel_ | amenado -> mandriva root on 12 gb and there is 100 for /home | 20:23 |
| ikonia | kraft__: have you fscked it (obvious question I know) | 20:23 |
| ubotu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 20:23 |
| zybil | hello. how to get a TV with SCART and SVHS and Antenna-IN as monitor for a laptop with HDMI and VGA OUT?? | 20:23 |
| kraft__ | anf xfs_repair gives a huge number of errors | 20:24 |
| asymptote | ikonia, you may also see smb referred to as "CIFS" - although the different name the RFC states it carries the same standards | 20:24 |
| ikonia | kraft__: ahh so the file system is complaining bad | 20:24 |
| KalEl | can i use the tracker-search-tool with commandline? | 20:24 |
| MrMorkel | Hello, has anybody expirence with Preseed files for automatic installation? | 20:24 |
| kraft__ | so i'm worried that if i try to repair it, i may lose a fair bit of data | 20:24 |
| SpookyET | Is there an ext3 tool that recovers stupidity? I just did "sudo rm -rf /etc". I have not touched it, so nothing should be overwritten. It should be recoverable. No, there is no backup. | 20:24 |
| kraft__ | ikonia: yes | 20:24 |
| ikonia | SpookyET: re-install | 20:24 |
| grandpa_ | unop__, it says something about sleeping. | 20:24 |
| KalEl | the gui does not work for me... but i also need to search for files | 20:24 |
| ikonia | kraft__: thats a tough call, if you just do a straight fsck on it, what sort of complaints do you get ? | 20:24 |
| unop__ | grandpa, pastebin what you see | 20:24 |
| LjL | !undelete | SpookyET | 20:25 |
| utarpradesh | please can someone help me installing STEAM in ubuntu using wine? http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=1554 what does it mean when they say "point wine to it" ? | 20:25 |
| ubotu | SpookyET: Some tools to recover lost data are listed and explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DataRecovery - Remember that it's tricky to recover deleted files from your journalled !filesystem, and you should keep !backups of important data. | 20:25 |
| amenado | Darkangel_-> am asking if you have additional space left ..just for ubuntu ? leave the mandriva in.. | 20:25 |
| asymptote | SpookyET, I don't know how easy it is to recover files deleted with the "rm" command, but one option you may want to evaluate is TestDisk - free and very reliable | 20:25 |
| kraft__ | sudo xfs_repair -nv /dev/mapper/datavg-video 2>&1 | wc -l | 20:25 |
| kraft__ | 4621 | 20:25 |
| asymptote | SpookyET, http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk | 20:25 |
| ikonia | asymptote: the whole /etc/ directory - it's not worth the effort | 20:25 |
| NTAuthority | LjL: argh, just wanted to tell about journaling problems, you invoke the bot :P | 20:25 |
| ikonia | asymptote: 1 file, yes, the whole dir - no chance | 20:25 |
| kraft__ | $ sudo xfs_repair -nv /dev/mapper/datavg-video 2>&1 | head -10 | 20:25 |
| kraft__ | Phase 1 - find and verify superblock... - block cache size set to 81048 entries | 20:25 |
| kraft__ | Phase 2 - using internal log - scan filesystem freespace and inode maps... | 20:25 |

| amenado | Darkangel_-> you can resize it first? | 20:26 |

I downloaded ndiswrapper, because I have a wireless card that needs it, and madwifi doesn't support it. However, since I am very new to linux, I do not know how to install ndiswrapper. | 20:26 |
| NTAuthority | utarpradesh: should work out of the box, don't think crossover hacked it theirselves | 20:26 |

| dimitris_ | Hello | 20:27 |
| amenado | Darkangel_-> i dont know if there is a version of gparted for mandriva, | 20:27 |
| utarpradesh | NTAuth... http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=1554 | 20:27 |
| NTAuthority | utarpradesh: that the games you have on your account work could be an completely other problem | 20:27 |
| chazco | amenado - Its odd because i used the same settings before. It appears to be a conflict between TC5 and Gusty's kernel based on the message and some forum posts... | 20:27 |
| grandpa_ | unop__, could you please resend it then? | 20:27 |
| grandpa_ | sorry | 20:27 |
| utarpradesh | in the how-to, there are specific instructions | 20:27 |
| amenado | Darkangel_-> then use that to resize your /home to give you room for ubuntu | 20:27 |
| grandpa_ | unop__, i'm now grandpa_ | 20:27 |
| kraft__ | XFS: Log inconsistent or not a log (last==0, first!=1) | 20:27 |

| kraft__ | ERROR: cannot find log head/tail, run xfs_repair | 20:27 |
| grandpa_ | unop__. so that may be why i'm missing those messages | 20:27 |
| ikonia | kraft__: yeah, it's pretty messed up then | 20:28 |
| amenado | chazco-> i dont know then, the steps i showed you is what i used.. | 20:28 |
| NTAuthority | utarpradesh: ah, yeah, the IE ActiveX Gecko link, forgot that :) you DO need that | 20:28 |
| unop | KalEl, edit ~/.bash_history -- or clear it | 20:28 |
| KalEl | ok thanks again unop | 20:28 |
| Darkangel_ | amenado -> wait i don't know how and where use and fine that tool | 20:28 |
| asymptote | SpookyET, are you familiar with the inode | 20:28 |
| utarpradesh | NTAuthority: what does it mean when it says "point wine to it..." | 20:28 |
| ikonia | kraft__: your going to have to fix it to mount it (I was wondering if you could fudge it to mark it clean to mount it to get the data off for a backup) | 20:28 |
| utarpradesh | does that mean run it using wine? | 20:28 |
| SpookyET | asymptote: no | 20:28 |
| chazco | amenado - Thanks anyway... the trouble is i like TC because it can work from Windows to, which is useful | 20:28 |
| grandpa_ | unop, what was that command again? | 20:28 |
| kraft__ | ikonia: so was there a problem with reassmbling my raid array or lvm? | 20:28 |
| SpookyET | asymptote: I have full journal_data enabled | 20:28 |
| unop | grandpa, sudo sh -c "iwlist scan; iwconfig" | 20:28 |
| ikonia | kraft__: what corrupted it is not clear. | 20:29 |
| asymptote | SpookyET, I may be able to help you but I'm taking a math test right now | 20:29 |
| NTAuthority | utarpradesh: that reg stuff is not needed, only if the cab download fails | 20:29 |
| asymptote | SpookyET, the best I can do is point you in a direction | 20:29 |
| LeFish-Xubuntu | anyone knows an aquivalent shell comand for windows-button+d? | 20:29 |
| asymptote | SpookyET, is is alright if I give you some links ? | 20:29 |
| SpookyET | asymptote: yeah | 20:29 |
| ikonia | kraft__: I'd guess the raid array, but that is only because it's more common | 20:29 |
| Synergy | Could someone help me? I am currently dual-booting Ubuntu (8.04 Beta) and windows. I am on windows right now.

| amenado | LeFish-Xubuntu-> what does it do? | 20:29 |
| amenado | !hardy | Synergy | 20:29 |
| ikonia | Synergy: join the channel #ubuntu+1 for 8.04 support | 20:29 |
| ubotu | Synergy: Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 24, 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE BETA SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu | 20:29 |
| kraft__ | ikonia: is there anything i can do to try and fix the raid array? | 20:29 |
| kbrooks | is there a way to get individual frames from a .mpg file as images in ubuntu? | 20:29 |
| LeFish-Xubuntu | amenado under windows it shows the desktop | 20:29 |
| asymptote | SpookyET, I don't suggest wikipedia as your source of information but it will give you some good keywords to conduct an internet research | 20:29 |
| Serveck | hmm, now to find drivers for my creative zen | 20:30 |
| asymptote | SpookyET, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inode | 20:30 |
| LeFish-Xubuntu | i would like to do the same thing under xfce | 20:30 |
| ikonia | kraft__: well, your raid array is in a degraded state with 1 disk missing, you could try adding a reaplcment disk, let the raid re-asemble see if that makes it better, it may, but it won't fix it | 20:30 |
| grandpa_ | unop__, am i sending the info to the right unop? | 20:30 |
| Synergy | Thank you | 20:30 |
| asymptote | SpookyET, I don't know the exact procedure for recovering the inode of each file | 20:30 |
| unop | grandpa_, yes | 20:30 |
| asymptote | SpookyET, as ikonia said, it may be very time consuming for a whole directory | 20:30 |
| amenado | LeFish-Xubuntu-> i do it a slight hard way, alt+tab many times till you see it? | 20:30 |

| ronandi | anybody know of an html editor that has ftp built in? | 20:30 |
| grandpa_ | unop, okay you got my info, now what other commands do i need? | 20:30 |
| unop | grandpa_, sudo sh -c "iwlist scan; iwconfig" | 20:31 |
| grandpa_ | unop, because i'm runing out of time | 20:31 |
| unop | :) | 20:31 |
| ikonia | kraft__: not really much you can do other than "fix it" if you can re-add a disk you may get less errors as the parity stripe will rebuild the disk | 20:31 |
| marlun | If "aptitude show package" shows that it depends on package1 and package2 but when I do "aptitude install package" it also adds package3 and package4 (which I don't want to be installed) to the installation. Can I somehow stop them from being installed? | 20:31 |
| chazco | ronandi - You may want to google for "gedit web ide", can be a very powerful editor for that sort of thing | 20:31 |
| asymptote | SpookyET, you can also try a keyword search for "disaster recovery" and "file recovery" in google.com/linux | 20:31 |
| kraft__ | ikonia: i'll try that now... | 20:31 |
| LeFish-Xubuntu | amenado well, I would like to set up xbindkeys so I would need an x-comand... but i dont know x that well =) | 20:31 |
| asymptote | SpookyET, I'm sorry, but I have to get back to my test | 20:31 |
| asymptote | SpookyET, good luck to you | 20:31 |

| AdemoS | ikonia, in the begining, I changed it to allow Cinelerra to work without error messages. Then, I thought it might help with HD video... | 20:38 |
| ikonia | Andycasss: if they are not on your lan, they can't connect | 20:38 |
| Darkangel_ | amenado-> lets containue | 20:38 |
| riskbreaker | blah569: try "lspci | grep network" | 20:38 |

| deniz__ | k, nvm i got it it was in system->preferences->appearance then installed from there | 20:40 |

| thegotogeek | Umm could someone help me with my S3 Chrome 20 Graphics card in Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon | 20:41 |
| dummy77 | it says could not connect to video device (dev/video0) | 20:41 |
| Darkangel_ | amenado-> how could i copy cd iso to hard | 20:41 |
| dummy77 | how can fix this | 20:41 |
| ikonia | AdemoS: that thread is most interesting. You could try upping it to 3 - 3.5 GB to see how much of a difference that makes, the average desktop user would never need to change shmem, so it's interesting that your application needed it, it's normally only needed on big server apps (Oracle is an easy example) | 20:41 |
| HardyOne | ikonia, maybe I am understanding wrong. if someone has hacked your system then they would be able to do anything on it correct? so that means they would be able to access shares from that pc because they are on the pc in essence? | 20:41 |
| XxXxXxXx | someone know about open source program for math stuff ? ( something good with alot functions and options ) | 20:41 |

| magnetron | Sinnerman, Andycasss : you should generally not have the SMB ports open in your firewall. | 20:44 |
| hacknslash | blah569, are you sure the network manager hasnt picked up the network card already | 20:44 |

| dummy77 | and my webcam says could not connect to device (/dev/video0) when i start camorama | 20:44 |
| blah569 | If I look in the network manager, I only see wired connection and modem connection. | 20:44 |
| ikonia | AdemoS: it depends, what/how your applications want share memory, some will work better, some may be worse. Shared memory won't make things launch any quicker | 20:44 |
| soundray | Arky44: did your freshly installed ubuntu boot up? | 20:45 |

| deniz__ | i have vista theme installed but it only affects windows, so windows r sexy but top and bottom task bars r same as normal which looks like a teenager with small body and big feet if u no wat i mean ;) | 20:45 |
| thegotogeek | Jeryx, to get radeon out of 640 I think you need to rerun dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and during that setup thing it gives you the options of picking resolutions that will be avaliable | 20:45 |

| unop | bullgard4, i mean, the file wasn't part of a package but was made by the installer when it was run and placed on the filesystem | 20:45 |
| AdemoS | ikonia, well for example, Firefox 2 seems to munch up memory faster than ever, with the shmmax upgrade. To fixt hat, I conisdered Firefox 3, but that beta doesn't support many extensions and more importantly, I can't get it working easily with Flash. (maybe with some tweaking though) | 20:45 |

| dummy77 | my webcam says could not connect to device (/dev/video0) when i start camorama | 20:45 |
| dummy77 | how can i fix this | 20:45 |
| Arky44 | HardyOne: no | 20:45 |
| hacknslash | blah569, do you know what wireless card you have ? | 20:46 |
| Arky44 | it goes straight to XP | 20:46 |
| bullgard4 | unop: Thank you very much for commenting. | 20:46 |
| ikonia | AdemoS: some applications will use as much memeory as they can | 20:46 |
| magnetron | Andycasss: make sure the ports are closed | 20:46 |
| unop | bullgard4, on-the-fly means "while in operation" or "while doing something" .. | 20:46 |
| dimas__ | mehmet i would say you missing codecs | 20:46 |
| ikonia | AdemoS: eg: you give it 10 GIG, it will use 10Gig even if it only needs 1 meg | 20:46 |
| HardyOne | !fixgrub | Arky44 | 20:46 |

| dummy77 | can i get some help pls | 20:47 |
| Arky44 | soundray: i clicked the downlaod link off the ubuntu site | 20:47 |
| ikonia | AdemoS: thats a hard one to answer, for me, no I wouldn't have a benifit, but for people using firefox to play videos for example, that could potentially work better, it's a balance. | 20:47 |
| dimas__ | dummy you need to install driver | 20:47 |
| ikonia | AdemoS: all depends what you do and how you use it | 20:47 |
| soundray | Arky44: the download link for what exactly? | 20:47 |
| thegotogeek | Jeryx, sorry man, not idea from there me, I got my screen resolution right I just can't find any drivers to get it working with 3d and what not in Ubuntu. | 20:47 |

| Arky44 | soundray: ubuntu 7.1 | 20:48 |

| dimas__ | dummy77 which driver you installed? | 20:48 |
| drc | dimas__-> did you look at http://www.videolan.org/doc/streaming-howto/en/streaming-howto-en.html ? | 20:48 |
| AdemoS | ikonia, hmm, I suppose I'll leave it then. (since I do play Flash and other video with Totem and Mplayer, within Firefox) but in the future, will leaving my shmmax at 2 GB mean I will never use more than that? Cause if that's the cae, then upping the shmmax is definitely worth the time for me | 20:48 |

| Jeryx | thegotogeek ya its been a brick wall for me on this end. knowing very little about linux doesnt help any. | 20:48 |
| soundray | Arky44: there is no such thing. Was it 7.10? | 20:48 |
| Arky44 | yes, sorry | 20:48 |

| AdemoS | ikonia, never BE ABLE to use more than that | 20:49 |
| dummy77 | dimas__ i installed gspca | 20:49 |
| soundray | Arky44: so then you downloaded a CD image. Did you burn that to a CD? | 20:49 |
| iska | i have a problem with sound on a fuitsu siemens amilo, i don't hear anything in the earphones, the soundcard is intel 82801H | 20:49 |
| ikonia | AdemoS: there are other parameters, like shmax and shmin for max it can use and min it should start, try playing with those settings to balance it, eg: start with 1 gig minimum and set a 4 gig max, so that you start with a good size but it can grow if needed | 20:49 |
| ikonia | AdemoS: (just as example figures) | 20:49 |
| dimas__ | dummy try www.rastageeks.org for ov51x drive | 20:49 |
| ikonia | AdemoS: the parameter you changed just changes "currently avaiable" | 20:49 |

| kikr | Hi, after updating ubuntu, my right mouse button no longer works. How can I torubleshoot this? | 20:50 |
| dimas__ | drc you there? | 20:50 |
| soundray | HardyOne: I bet he's going to copy the iso file to a CD now rather than burning the image... | 20:51 |
| Maddeth | hey guys, I was just wondering what this CNR thing is that i have seen pop up in the forums | 20:51 |
| drc | dimas__-> yes? | 20:51 |
| dummy77 | nope i did im sure because everytime i open my pc i have to type sudo rmmod gspca sudo rmmod zc0301 then modprobe gspca | 20:51 |
| Joebu2222 | anyone know a way to ensure an application started from ssh client will have same PID number? | 20:51 |

| hacknslash | blah569, try this link https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WiFiHowTo | 20:51 |
| dummy77 | then it works | 20:51 |
| dummy77 | but i have to type those everytime i open pc | 20:51 |
| dimas__ | drc i streaming ok and have access from http but others dont | 20:51 |
| ikonia | AdemoS: as an additional hint, make sure you know your apps too, (just to give you an example) Oracle / Sybase will use the MAX available share mem segments, even if it doesn't need them, which will waste a lot of ram, so you may have to do ipc segments to allocate ram to applications | 20:51 |
| naknomik | I want to disable only certain users from loggin in using ssh, how do I do that? | 20:51 |
| HardyOne | soundray, he will be back. he was able to find his way here to ask for help so... I have hope | 20:51 |
| Maddeth | guys? | 20:52 |
| Serveck | im trying to get ubuntu to see my mp3 player as a removable disk (creative zen) | 20:52 |
| soundray | Joebu2222: no, the kernel decides what the PID number will be, there is no way to control that | 20:52 |
| deniz__ | is it possible to add themes for taskbars?? | 20:52 |
| ikonia | AdemoS: see where I'm going with this ? | 20:52 |
| dummy77 | dimas__ nope i did im sure because everytime i open my pc i have to type sudo rmmod gspca sudo rmmod zc0301 then modprobe gspca | 20:52 |
| drc | dimas__-> I have no idea...I don't stream out, only in | 20:52 |
| iska | i have a problem with sound on a fujitsu siemens amilo, i can't hear anything in the earphones, but the in-built speaker works fine; the soundcard is intel 82801H | 20:52 |
| Jowi | naknomik, you put "AllowUsers user1" in /etc/ssh/sshd_config to allow only user1 to login. | 20:53 |
| AdemoS | ikonia, well in terms of details. I mostly use: GIMP, Blender, SMplayer, Audaicous, XChat, Amule, Deluge-Torrent, and archiving programs. (sometimes all at once) | 20:53 |
| dummy77 | dimas__ after all its working till i reboot then i have to type those again | 20:53 |
| nomopofomo | Can I use OpenType fonts with Ubuntu?! | 20:53 |
| AdemoS | ikonia, I think so | 20:53 |
| ikonia | AdemoS: ok, so gimp is an excellent example of an application that would use and benifit from larger shared memory | 20:53 |
| unop | naknomik, are the users allowed to log in on the console? | 20:53 |
| AdemoS | ikonia, aha good point | 20:53 |
| LeFish-Xubuntu | irc.mixxnet.net #reaper | 20:53 |
| Joeb454 | Actually what is this CNR thing Maddeth just mentioned? I've seen it come up in the forums quite a bit recently | 20:54 |
| Jowi | naknomik, another alternative is to use /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny | 20:54 |
| nomopofomo | Nobody knows, do they. | 20:54 |
| dimas__ | dummy77 you installed in a wrong place...make sure user have access where you put it | 20:54 |
| dimas__ | dummy77 sorry but i am just guessing | 20:54 |
| dummy77 | dimas__ u mean i have to install it in the root directory? | 20:54 |
| dummy77 | thanks for trying dimas__ | 20:55 |
| Jeryx | if I need to reinstall ubuntu, is there a way to do a nondestructive reinstall like in windows? otherwise I got a LOT of data to back up to other boxes... | 20:55 |
| Maddeth | Is CNR worth looking into? | 20:55 |
| dimas__ | dummy77 sudo is ok i think | 20:55 |
| Maddeth | ? | 20:55 |
| AdemoS | ikonia, well good points, thanks for the information. I'll keep it in mind when I adjust shared memory settings in the future | 20:55 |
| dummy77 | i did sudo dimas__ | 20:55 |
| nickrud | Jeryx there is, yes. Did you set up a separate home partition? | 20:55 |
| ikonia | AdemoS: good man, I'm sure you'll find an excellent learning experience at the end of this | 20:55 |
| PriceChild | Maddeth: what software do you want in there that isn't in the ubuntu repositories. | 20:55 |
| ikonia | AdemoS: there is no "right and wrong" - so don't worry too much about others views | 20:56 |
| unop | Jeryx, sure, if you install _without_ formatting partitions, it's as good as a non-destructive install | 20:56 |
| soundray | Jeryx: take the time for a backup, anyway. Data you haven't backed up is data you don't want. | 20:56 |
| dummy77 | all i have to do is typing those commands again to work webcam after reboot | 20:56 |
| genefitz | Maddeth, CNR is a pretty decent program used primarily with Linspire and Freespire. For the most, it works pretty well, but it does have some "hit-n-Miss" problems from time to time. | 20:56 |
| AdemoS | ikonia, oh and Inkscape will probably benefit too. | 20:56 |
| Jeryx | heh true enough | 20:56 |
| ikonia | AdemoS: yes, I suspect it would | 20:56 |
| dimas__ | dummy77 i just came here for a question really dont remember much how i did now but i know how it feel been there | 20:56 |
| AdemoS | ikonia, yeah thanks, some people tend to push their opinion | 20:56 |
| Maddeth | Thanks :) | 20:56 |
| ikonia | AdemoS: what works on my machine, with my apps, for my use, may cripple yours | 20:56 |
| AdemoS | ikonia, hah | 20:56 |
| Jeryx | I'm just sick of beating my head agaisnt this thing and I'm guessing its like a rubix cube, the more I've poked at it the more complicated I've made the solution | 20:56 |
| dummy77 | sorry i took enough time of you dimas__ thx for trying | 20:57 |
| dimas__ | dummy77 is ok my brother | 20:57 |
| dummy77 | thx bro | 20:57 |
| AdemoS | ikonia, anyway, good talk to you, see ya around | 20:57 |
| AdemoS | *talking | 20:57 |
| ikonia | AdemoS: have fun with it | 20:57 |
| nickrud | Jeryx a good method is to create a /data dir, move everything you want to it. Then manually delete everything else before installing, and as others said install without formatting. | 20:57 |

| ikonia | Jero: what's the problem | 20:57 |
| dimas__ | dummy77 i could say i pretty sure you have the file in a wrong place though | 20:57 |
| genefitz | Maddeth, a couple things about CNR to know. It does take a little terminal work out of the user hands, however sometimes when it installs, it takes a lot of control away, and many times the programs it isntalls are not correct for the current version. | 20:57 |

| nickrud | Jeryx used that method in the past, worked well | 20:58 |
| sarah___ | !root | 20:58 |
| ubotu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 20:58 |

| sarah___ | is that normal? | 21:01 |
| Jero | ikonia: ubotu? (is a linux & irc noob) | 21:01 |
| ikonia | calamari: yes, but ubuntu isn't setup multi lib | 21:01 |
| ikonia | Jero: you should have recieved a private message from ubotu | 21:01 |

| robm | can someone help me repartition and format a harddrive using gparted? | 21:01 |
| calamari | ikonia: it works fine.. just trying to view everything | 21:01 |
| soundray | Jeryx: so what you need now is a sane starting point, probably with a configuration that uses the open source raden driver. Correct? | 21:02 |
| ikonia | calamari: no, you need a base set of 32bit libs to use 32bit libraries, which maintaining can be quite complex | 21:02 |
| Jero | ikonia: awesome, thanks | 21:02 |
| calamari | ikonia: yes.. ubuntu provides those | 21:02 |
| LjL | sarah___: i'd say so | 21:02 |
| soundray | Jeryx: sry *radeon | 21:02 |
| genefitz | jeryx, historically, linux, ATI and multiple displays have been an issue. I wish I had a solution, but I don't. | 21:02 |
| calamari | ikonia: anyways.. sounds like synaptic doesn't handle it .. | 21:03 |
| archman | guys when i wine --version in terminal it says version 48 but i installed 59 via synaptic; how to solve that? | 21:03 |
| sarah___ | LjL so now my root password is disabled yes? | 21:03 |
| ikonia | calamari: try putting both the 32bit and 64bit repo's in, I'm not sure how that would work out | 21:03 |
| LjL | sarah___: yes | 21:03 |
| Jeryx | soundray I'm not sure its that simple anymore. I have made changes since then, installed packages or removed them at the direction of guides, and have little idea how to actually troubleshoot the problem on my own. | 21:03 |
| adante | hi does anybody use mercurial? is it possible to install mercurial 1.0? | 21:03 |

| Jeryx | genefitz I no logner want to have multiple displays. I've learned my lesson there. I just want my 1024x768 back on my main display | 21:03 |
| adante | i'm trying to do it from source but it throws an error baout being unable to find python.h | 21:03 |
| Jero | ikonia: its not there | 21:04 |
| ikonia | adante: your python headers are missing | 21:04 |
| archman | how to completely remove a program from the system? | 21:04 |
| calamari | ikonia: actually wait.. there are no differences in the repo names | 21:04 |
| ikonia | !wirless > Jero | 21:04 |
| ikonia | Jero: how about that url | 21:04 |
| sarah___ | LjL: what if i have a rootkit installed? how can i check to make sure one is not running in the background? | 21:04 |
| genefitz | jeryx, hmm, I would say try uninstalling and re-installing the ATI driver, then maybe reconfigure your xorg | 21:04 |
| soundray | Jeryx: I think going back to a single-display config will be straightforward. | 21:04 |
| ikonia | calamari: ahhh it's doen on your !arch now rather than repo name | 21:04 |
| genefitz | That is about the best solution I could think of. | 21:04 |
| LjL | sarah___, there is no way to make 100% sure, but you can install "chkrootkit" and "rkhunter", and run them. | 21:04 |
| LjL | sarah___: you should ideally do it from a live CD. | 21:05 |
| Jeryx | genefitz I am attempting that | 21:05 |
| Jero | !wireless | 21:05 |
| geirha | adante: header-files are installed by -dev-packages, so install python-dev to get Python.h installed | 21:05 |
| ubotu | Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 21:05 |
| LjL | sarah___: do you have a *reason* to think you might have a rootkit, though? | 21:05 |
| calamari | ikonia: what is !arch? | 21:05 |
| soundray | Jeryx: there will be a backup of your original xorg.conf -- if not, we'll fix it | 21:05 |
| ikonia | calamari: your machine architechture | 21:05 |
| Andycasss | IS there a way to make vista auto mount samba shares? Right now I have to log in every time, although i have guest and public on in samba shares... | 21:05 |
| adante | geirha: thanks geirha | 21:05 |
| ikonia | Andycasss: as in #windows | 21:06 |
| sarah___ | LjL no reason, just because im new to linux and dont know a lot. But i know some people who have it happen to them thats why | 21:06 |
| LjL | Andycasss, they would know better in ##windows i suppose | 21:06 |
| Jeryx | soundray this has been anything but straightforward, when I tried to turn on the second display, ubuntu restarted in low graphics mode and has resisted any settings change I have tried to make. I now believe part of the drivers are missing | 21:06 |
| calamari | ikonia: not finding !arch anywhere | 21:06 |
| soto | I'm trying to 'sudo rm' a file but I keep getting permission denied errors? What can I do? | 21:06 |
| Jero | ikonia: nope, cant find it | 21:06 |
| LjL | sarah___: have you installed SSH? have you installed any server package of any kind? | 21:06 |
| ikonia | calamari: sorry, that was miss-leading, you won't find it as an option | 21:06 |
| soundray | Jeryx: no, they aren't. | 21:06 |
| soundray | Jeryx: have you got a terminal open? | 21:06 |
| ikonia | calamari: the repo's contents are determained by your machines arch x86_64, i386 etc | 21:06 |
| sarah___ | SSH i dont think so, but i have used the synaptic package manager to install apps | 21:07 |
| calamari | ikonia: oh.. I see what you're saying | 21:07 |
| ikonia | Jero: Hmmm I don't know that card, so I don't know if it's supported, but it doesn't look good | 21:07 |
| Flannel | sarah___: Have you added any third party repostories? | 21:07 |
| calamari | ikonia: I'll mess around with that.. thanks | 21:07 |
| LjL | sarah___, if those "apps" are simply little programs that do things on your desktop, they're likely not server packages | 21:07 |
| Jero | ikonia: sorry, its not a card..its an external usb adapter | 21:07 |
| sarah___ | i dont think i have anything for server packages | 21:07 |
| Jeryx | soundray yes, terminal is open. however as I said I have been shuffling packages in and out of the system. during the latest guide there was a command supposed to check my video card but returned something about GLX missing | 21:08 |
| sarah___ | flannel yeah i did some third party repos | 21:08 |
| Flannel | sarah___: which third party repos? | 21:08 |
| sarah___ | i think for drivers and stuff like awn | 21:08 |
| jaffarkelshac | sudo aptitude install gnomebaker | 21:08 |
| jaffarkelshac | haha, wrong window | 21:08 |
| sarah___ | oh and windows stuff like .avi or windows media player | 21:08 |
| soundray | Jeryx: stop worrying for a second and follow me. If within 10 minutes I haven't taken you back to a single-screen 1024x768 configuration, you can continue worrying about packages and stuff. | 21:09 |
| sarah___ | other codec stuff | 21:09 |
| Jeryx | soundray it was glxinfo |vendor, and it returned GLX extensions missing | 21:09 |
| Jero | ikonia: sudo makemywirelesswork =P | 21:09 |
| Jeryx | soundray ok, fire away | 21:09 |
| soto | Is /var/cache/debconf safe to remove? | 21:09 |
| calamari | ikonia: lol.. ehh duh.. I'd need a 32-bit synaptic for this to work.. okay I need to mess around with this some more.. thanks I think you've pointed me in the right direction | 21:09 |
| ikonia | calamari: no problem | 21:09 |
| bullgard4 | I am surprised that System > Administration > Services [Services settings] shows apmd swiched on but acpid switched off although there is a process 'kacpid'. Can you explain this apparent contradiction? | 21:09 |
| Flannel | sarah___: What third party repositories did you enable? (those are in the regular repository) | 21:10 |
| kikr | man this firefox update really screwed my mouse up | 21:10 |
| soundray | Jeryx: do a 'cd /etc/X11' and tell me how many lines you get from 'ls -lt xorg*' | 21:10 |
| ikonia | calamari: I've never done it that way, I'd expect 32bit compatability packages that are SUPPORTED (key word) being held in the amd64 repo | 21:10 |
| sarah___ | oh then im not sure | 21:10 |
| sarah___ | i follwed a ubuntu form for AWN and it made me enable a 3rd party repo | 21:10 |
| jack|Helium | I'm having an odd issue in hardy beta. I just compiled a custom kernel (my laptop is older, and I'm trying to minimize unneeded features, etc. Plus I wanted to try tuxonice), and the output .deb is > 500 MB is size. I installed filelight and discovered that when installed, the 500 MB is almost entirely taken up by the modules directory (/lib/modules...). Does anyone know why the modules dir is so big? I need to get it down becau | 21:10 |
| jack|Helium | se I only have a 10 GB disk... | 21:10 |
| Flannel | sarah___: If you're just installing stuff from the regular repositories, you don't need to worry about rootkits. | 21:10 |
| Jeryx | soundray 13 of em | 21:10 |
| soundray | jack|Helium: ask in #ubuntu+1 please | 21:11 |
| jack|Helium | soundray: ok, thanks | 21:11 |

| ikonia | Jero: no-one will "write a driver for you", it's not a 10 minute job | 21:13 |
| soundray | Jeryx: do you get any output from 'grep Driver xorg.conf.? | grep ati'? | 21:13 |
| bullgard4 | thegotogeek: You will get faster help in #ubuntu+1 | 21:14 |
| bullgard4 | thegotogeek: err! Excuse me. | 21:14 |

| Jero | ikonia: i know that...but there are those that may | 21:14 |

| evan__ | what does this error mean? .: 4: gnome-autogen.sh: not found | 21:14 |
| ikonia | Jero: there is not, if no driver exists, it's probably because it needs to be reverse engineered | 21:14 |
| ikonia | evan__: it means the auto-gen script for gnome in that package is missing | 21:14 |
| Jero | ikonia: ok...thanks for your help | 21:15 |

| archman_ | guys how to uninstall wine? When i run it in terminal, it opens, but when i apt-get remove wine it says it's not installed... | 21:19 |
| soundray | Jeryx: I'd like to have a look at your xorg.conf.4 -- do a 'sudo apt-get install pastebinit && cat xorg.conf.4 | pastebinit' and let me have the URL. | 21:19 |
| ripper666 | or hi i should say | 21:19 |
| nickrud | tcpdumpgod and owned by you. All the subdirs as well. just doing a chmod -R on ~/.nautilus and .gconf will check my idea | 21:19 |
| HardyOne | Jeryx, using windows is not a reason to be kicked from this channel. but hating on windows could be. | 21:19 |
| RoAkSoAx | archman, sudo apt-get remove --purge wine | 21:19 |

| eibwen | Has use of the gnome workspace switcher changed? I tried dragging and dropping a window to move it between desktops, but the window doesn't move with the mouse. The cursor does change appearance, but when releasing the mouse button instead of actually moving, the window merely takes focus and the window manager switches desktops to the one the window is located on. Doesn't seem to matter what desktop the drag starts on or the dr | 21:42 |
| jaffarkelshac | can someone help me with my screen res, is too high with login but changes to normall when i login | 21:42 |
| ankit_ | thegotogeek: How did you try to install it? | 21:42 |
| thegotogeek | ankit, sudo sh S3G-Linux-x86-2.0.16-pkg.run | 21:42 |

| thegotogeek | ankit, yes one sec I will pull up the log and get you what it says | 21:43 |
| soundray | jaffarkelshac: gdm normally starts with the highest resolution that you enable in the xorg wizard. To go through that configuration, 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' | 21:43 |
| ronandi | what is that screenshot prog that goes... Taking screenshot in 5..4..3..2..1.. | 21:43 |
| hacknslash | blah569, yes u r | 21:43 |
| blah569 | I can contact Gateway and ask them, too. | 21:43 |
| jaffarkelshac | soundray, k | 21:43 |
| HardyOne | soundray, my hopes were well placed :) | 21:43 |
| blah569 | I can ask them what the default wireless card is on my model. | 21:43 |
| thegotogeek | ankit, http://pastebin.com/m10d292c0 <- theres the log when I try to install it | 21:44 |
| hacknslash | blah569, we can do it step by step if u like | 21:44 |
| Dr_willis | blah569, their web site proberly has the info. or a lspci mayu give some clues also. | 21:44 |
| willytell | I'm suffering problems of screen resolution. I had reconfigured xorg.conf using dpkg-reconfigure xserver-org, but I get a low screen resolution 640x480 on the next login. Any idea? | 21:44 |
| Dr_willis | google is our friend also. :) | 21:44 |
| ronandi | willytell: whats ur gfx card"? | 21:44 |
| ankit_ | thegotogeek: Can you paste the output of /var/log/s3setup.log and /var/log/s3build.log ? | 21:45 |
| thegotogeek | ankit, what I just gave you was the output of the s3setup.log, and the s3build.log is blank | 21:45 |

| willytell | ronandi, Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controlle | 21:45 |

| === cyrus__ is now known as EvilAIM | ||
| fyrmedic | Is there a room for 64bit or is this it? | 21:46 |
| thegotogeek | ankit, yeah I don't know I've opened the s3build.log and its a blank txt file | 21:47 |
| willytell | it was working well, but now I don't know. | 21:47 |
| rodrigues_ | llllll | 21:47 |
| soundray | fyrmedic: you can ask here | 21:47 |
| ankit_ | thegotogeek: Are you running the install with X server shut down? | 21:47 |
| thegotogeek | ankit, no, I don't know how to shut down the Xserver thing | 21:47 |
| EvilAIM | hmm | 21:47 |

| ubotu | The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto | 21:48 |
| peter77 | what is the ideal percentage to set the shutdown percentage when my battery reaches a certain percentage to help maintain the battery and reduce wear? | 21:48 |
| thegotogeek | ankit, i've read that, it really didn't help, how would I shutdown the x server and that so i can try installing it that way? | 21:48 |
| soundray | thegotogeek: ubuntu comes with an S3 driver and normally selects it automatically. Why do you think you need another driver? | 21:48 |
| xb3rt | Does anyone here use secondlife on linux | 21:49 |
| ankit_ | thegotogeek: In the console: sudo /etc/init.d/Xdm stop | 21:49 |
| fyrmedic | Ok, I have a AMD turion64 but only one processor is recognized. I am on livecd right now but it is the same on installed. I thought I had 64bit installed but only one processor was there. Now I am on 64bit LiveCD because I was going to change it and still no luck. | 21:49 |
| pros977 | I have used second life | 21:49 |
| pros977 | Need a better graphics card though to make it worthwhile | 21:49 |
| ankit_ | thegotogeek: That will kill all graphical applications though, including your IRC client if you are using a graphical one... | 21:49 |
| soundray | fyrmedic: is it a Turion X2? | 21:49 |
| thegotogeek | soundray, because i have tried that and it won't allow me to use that with my card, plus that driver is crap for the 3d acceleration and stuff my card can do, plus with that s3 graphic driver i can't get x to start with it | 21:50 |
| xb3rt | pros977: was it on linux, and did it actually work without lagging out or freezing up all the time? | 21:50 |
| thegotogeek | ankit, i will be right back i will try that and see if I can install without x running, brb | 21:50 |
| pros977 | xb3rt works well. Linux Mint offers a package in the software portal | 21:50 |
| Dr_willis | fyrmedic, i noticed under the hardy testing. the 386 kernel only detecxted 1 core of my dual core cpus.. but that may not be your issue | 21:50 |
| legend2440 | ronandi: scrot -d5 -c | 21:50 |
| rameez | :))) | 21:51 |
| ankit_ | thegotogeek: Okay, but to get to a console after killing X type: CTRL+ALT+F1 | 21:51 |
| xb3rt | pros977: whats Linux Mint | 21:51 |
| rameez | :/ | 21:51 |
| rameez | hi | 21:51 |
| rameez | can anybody see my chat because my nick is unregistered | 21:51 |
| Dr_willis | xb3rt, a ubuntu spinoff. its nice in ways.. but annoying in others. :) | 21:51 |
| Dr_willis | rameez, yes we can | 21:51 |
| soundray | thegotogeek: I'm just saying, compiling a graphics driver is too ambitious a project for someone who doesn't know how to shut down X. No need to throw fecal verbiage around btw. | 21:51 |
| rameez | oh thanks | 21:51 |
| thegotogeek | okay ankit, i just tryed that what you gave me through the console sudo: /etc/init.d/Xdm: command not found | 21:51 |
| rameez | :) | 21:51 |
| thegotogeek | soundray, i would use s3 if it worked, but that won't even start x so I can't use that driver | 21:52 |
| Dr_willis | thegotogeek, try kdm or gdm, not Xdm | 21:52 |
| xb3rt | pros977: Dr_willis: is their a package for ubuntu to run it | 21:52 |
| HardyOne | or replace X with ? | 21:52 |
| rameez | Dr_willis, and i can use black color too like this can u see ? :) | 21:52 |
| Dr_willis | thegotogeek, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart (or whatever) | 21:52 |
| fyrmedic | Dr_Willis: I don't think that is the problem. I am trying to use 64bit. I thought that it was installed before but now I am not sure. | 21:52 |
| Dr_willis | rameez, i see anythign with my NICK in it as red.. | 21:52 |
| XxXxXxXx | ! | 21:52 |
| rameez | :) | 21:52 |
| ankit_ | thegotogeek: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 21:52 |
| isaacj87 | i know the linux virus discussion has been beaten to death, but I was wondering something...Say you open an email and there is a virus, what exactly happens or doesn't happen? | 21:53 |
| ankit_ | thegotogeek: or kdm stop, depending on which one you are using. | 21:53 |
| thegotogeek | dr_willis I did that it says stopping gnome display manager then it just it comes back to where I can type something again, and now I am still in the gnome and stuff | 21:53 |
| Dr_willis | fyrmedic, depends on what cd you used to install with. use lsb_release -a to see whats installed. | 21:53 |
| soundray | fyrmedic: run 'uname -a'. If it contains x86_64, you're on 64bit | 21:53 |
| isaacj87 | basically, how does it NOT spread or infect or whatever | 21:53 |

| thegotogeek | ankit, I tryed that killed the xserver then tryed to install the driver still says same thing | 22:01 |
| homerj | where are the settings for what linux thinks a USB device is? Is that something that's just reported by the device? | 22:01 |
| kenboo | thanks. runit package needs /etc/inittab which no longer exists in Ubuntu | 22:01 |
| hever | Hi. My pcmcia slot is not listed under lspci or lshw... what can I do ? | 22:01 |
| bullgard4 | Why shows System > Administration > Services [Services settings] apmd switched on but acpid switched off although there is a process 'kacpid'? | 22:01 |
| homerj | I'm trying to get linux to accept a wheel I have as having two axises for the pedals | 22:01 |
| Jeryx | soundray: once again, thank you for your assistance earlier, you saved me a ton of grief | 22:02 |
| Ramunas | hello, I have a problem, I have set "vlc %s" as my default media app, and gnome-open still opens up totem | 22:02 |
| wolfric | hey can anyone help me out changing the order of o/s on my boot menu? (using grub) | 22:02 |
| acsia | will jeos be focused on Kvm does anybody know? currently it seems more focus on vmware | 22:02 |
| ridge-meister | Jeryx: and MattJ here have a cookie. you can cut it with a knife, afterwards seek out xb3rt :D | 22:02 |
| ankit_ | hischild: Now that you mention it, the problem might be that he's not satisfied with the performance of his graphics card, not with the drivers... :-\ | 22:02 |
| ivze | wolfric: goto /boot/grub/ | 22:02 |
| wolfric | saw somewhere online boot/grub/grub.conf but there is no such file on my pc... can anyone help me out? | 22:02 |
| thegotogeek | ankit, you there still? | 22:02 |
| wolfric | and what file ivze | 22:02 |
| ankit_ | thegotogeek: Yes. | 22:02 |
| hacknslash | wolfric, you need to edit /boot/gurb/menu.lst | 22:02 |
| Dr_willis | wolfric, its /boot/grub/menu.lst | 22:03 |
| carlzenox | how do i install Net::IRC for perl? | 22:03 |
| wolfric | no such file | 22:03 |
| ivze | wolfric: menu.lst | 22:03 |
| xb3rt | ridge-meister: what? | 22:03 |
| hischild | ankit_, i think that he had a version that worked with his gfx card, yet he wasn't satisfied with it ... now he's trying some other version which just won't work ... then again, ofcourse that's just me | 22:03 |
| wolfric | i dont have that file | 22:03 |
| thegotogeek | ankit, any idea, cause that didn't work, and I would really like to have 3d acceleration and that with my graphics card to work, cause I know it can do that its a 512mb graphics card | 22:03 |
| soundray | carlzenox: 'sudo apt-get install libnet-irc-perl' | 22:03 |
| wolfric | nope wait i do... my monitors too small lol hold on | 22:03 |
| carlzenox | thx soundray | 22:03 |
| ivze | wolfric: 0_o | 22:04 |
| xb3rt | Whens Fedora 10 suppose to release | 22:04 |
| jpatrick | xb3rt: #fedora | 22:04 |
| ankit_ | thegotogeek: If you had a working configuration, it's possible that that is the best it's going to get. Changing the drivers will not significantly affect performance unless the drivers are notably poor. | 22:04 |
| Dr_willis | carlzenox, perl has the cpan tools to install the cpan modules I recall.. i havent messed with them in ages http://search.cpan.org/~jeek/Net-IRC-0.73/IRC.pm | 22:04 |
| ankit_ | thegotogeek: Perhaps what you really want is a better graphics card? | 22:04 |
| hacknslash | wolfric, read the file, count the os options, and set default number to the os you need | 22:05 |
| carlzenox | Dr_willis: ok ill check it out | 22:05 |
| thegotogeek | ankit, yeah the driver is crap stuff tears and like pixelates at full screen, and ankit my graphics card is a good graphics card i have not had any problems with it and I can play stuff like halo and other games np with it, its just I can't get the driver to work in linux is the problem not the card | 22:05 |
| Dr_willis | carlzenox, http://www.perlhowto.com/installing_cpan_modules | 22:05 |
| wolfric | thanks a mill ivze and hacknslash | 22:06 |
| soundray | carlzenox: always search the ubuntu repos first before messing with CPAN sources | 22:06 |
| wolfric | appriciate it guys | 22:06 |
| hacknslash | wolfric, yw | 22:06 |
| ankit_ | thegotogeek: Well do you have the driver properly installed? | 22:06 |
| ankit_ | thegotogeek: If the included driver has 3D acceleration, then maybe you just don't have it configured properly. | 22:07 |
| thegotogeek | ankit, i am running right now on Vesa driver, and the thing about the games that was in Windows | 22:07 |
| ankit_ | thegotogeek: The vesa driver is probably not the driver you are supposed to be using with your graphics card. Other people have said there is a driver for your card included in Ubuntu... Did you look into that? | 22:08 |
| jaffarkelshac | how do i fix the res at loginon hardy is too high | 22:08 |
| FFEMTcJ | im setting up a computer with ubuntu.. im going to use this computer to learn and play with, so im expecting to "break it" often just because of a lack of knowledge.. ive heard that you can put different things such as /etc and /usr on different partitions to lessen the "impact" if you have to reinstall so that you dont loose everything.. Can someone tell me if this is a good idea, and if so, what all should I put on different partitions? | 22:08 |
| thegotogeek | ankit, yeah I have looked into finding which driver that is or trying other ones, but I have had no luck getting the ones I have tried to boot X server, unless you know which one they where talking about but I have tried the s3 and a modified via driver that I downloaded, but neither work | 22:08 |
| bruno | anybody? | 22:08 |
| jaffarkelshac | what was our question | 22:09 |
| bruno | why my MSN can't loading ? | 22:09 |
| ankit_ | thegotogeek: I think that route is probably a better bet than recompiling the drivers yourself... Maybe you should try fixing that instead of compiling drivers? | 22:10 |
| Dr_willis | bruno, msn? Huh? | 22:10 |
| jaffarkelshac | how do i fix the res at loginon hardy is too high | 22:10 |
| jturk | dumb question: wondering if there's a way to see .xsession-errors from last session? | 22:10 |
| bruno | me ? | 22:10 |
| blah569_ | Does anyone know how to get wireless working on Ubuntu with this card? ( Realtek 802.11b/g ) | 22:10 |
| ankit_ | jaffarkelshac: Just at the log in screen or since log in? | 22:10 |
| salty-horse | hi. the font in gitk, fontforge and others is really small. how do I change it? | 22:10 |
| thegotogeek | ankit, well I have no idea which driver is suppose to work with my card, and all I am trying to do is install the driver, and ubuntu can't even get past that, i am really starting to get aggrevated with ubuntu as a operating system when it can't do this simple task | 22:11 |
| jaffarkelshac | ankit just at the login. the main login is at the very right corner | 22:11 |
| bruno | who could tell me how to loading my msn ? | 22:11 |
| hacknslash | blah569_, hi again, the 802.11b/g is just the spec that the card works too | 22:11 |
| yaris12346789 | hello | 22:12 |
| yaris12346789 | does anyone know | 22:12 |
| hacknslash | blah569_, could you do lspci and look for realtek? | 22:12 |
| ankit_ | jaffarkelshac: So it goes back to the desired resolution after you log in? | 22:12 |
| yaris12346789 | if its possible to run a server at home, and just pay for traffic | 22:12 |
| jaffarkelshac | ankit yep, | 22:12 |
| yaris12346789 | what would be the cost of just paying for traffic and who can i do it with ? | 22:12 |

| yaris12346789 | ok thanks | 22:13 |
| fyrmedic | Ok, so I have jsut searched the forums in vain trying to get both processors working on my AMD turion64 (opteron). Only one is recognized. | 22:13 |
| Paraselene__ | Is it accurate to think of hard/symbolic links in these terms: symbolic links are directly equivalent to windows shortcuts, and hard links are shortcuts which cannot be broken by moving the existing files around, but which must refer to local files? | 22:13 |
| stephan | hey | 22:13 |
| soundray | fyrmedic: what makes you think there should be two cores on your CPU? | 22:13 |
| stephan | oops, wrong SN | 22:13 |
| Paraselene__ | is there anything more to it than that? | 22:13 |
| stephan | ok, i'm completely new to ubuntu, i cannot even figure out how to install anything | 22:14 |
| ankit_ | jaffarkelshac: You can edit the /etc/X11/xorg.conf and remove any resolutions higher than the one which you need. | 22:14 |
| fyrmedic | I suppose that I assumed that it is dual core. Any way to know for sure? | 22:14 |

| [watcher] | hello | 22:14 |
| soundray | stephan: please read the private messages from ubotu | 22:14 |
| stephan | i managed to get onto IRC, but no clue as to how to install ati drivers or anything | 22:14 |
| hacknslash | stephan, use synaptec package manager | 22:14 |
| stephan | thanks | 22:15 |
| stephan | ati-driver-installer-8.34.8-x86.x86_64.run | 22:15 |
| stephan | how do i install? | 22:15 |
| soundray | stephan: don't | 22:15 |
| stephan | ? | 22:15 |
| dubby | hey anyone when trying to mount a ntfs partiton with ntfs-3g it is telling me that media failed to mount due to it being a read only file system | 22:15 |
| jaffarkelshac | ankit_, except there are no resolutions values at all | 22:15 |
| hischild | stephan, use the restricted drivers. | 22:15 |
| dubby | i have never come across that be4 and usually works | 22:15 |
| [watcher] | I just had lots of fun installing my linksys wireless adapter :) :) Figured it out was the ndis | 22:15 |
| soundray | stephan: to install the binary driver, go through System-Administration-Restricted Drivers Manager | 22:15 |
| ankit_ | jaffarkelshac: Anywhere in /etc/X11/xorg.conf? | 22:15 |
| dubby | mounting with sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdc1 /media/mount -o force | 22:15 |
| blah569_ | Now that I have found Realtek, what would be the next step? | 22:16 |
| FFEMTcJ | s/ubuntu/xubuntu | 22:16 |
| stephan | what is the link for the latest ATI drivers (stable) | 22:16 |
| FFEMTcJ | oops | 22:16 |
| soundray | fyrmedic: do you read me at all? | 22:16 |
| === dubby is now known as dubbydubby | ||
| hacknslash | blah569_, do lspci and look for realtek | 22:16 |
| blah569_ | I found Realtek. | 22:16 |
| fyrmedic | soundray: I believe that the turion64 processors are dual core aren't they? | 22:16 |
| soundray | fyrmedic: not all of them | 22:17 |
| soundray | fyrmedic: only those designated as Turion X2 | 22:17 |
| hischild | fyrmedic, they can be. Can you give the full name? | 22:17 |
| jaffarkelshac | ankit_, no values at all | 22:17 |
| hacknslash | blah569_, does it give more information | 22:17 |
| fyrmedic | soundray: lspci right? | 22:17 |
| soundray | fyrmedic: no | 22:17 |
| hacknslash | blah569_, we need a model number if poss | 22:17 |
| ankit_ | jaffarkelshac: Well if you know the resolution you want for X, you can add that into the Display SubSection | 22:17 |
| [watcher] | My Ubuntu was freezing up on me at 99% - figured it out. I disabled my DHCP on my NIC. I am using a wireless adapter so I disabled my LAN connection as well. Now it works without a problem. | 22:18 |
| blah569_ | 06:00.0? | 22:18 |
| blah569_ | Wait, for the wireless card? | 22:18 |
| FFEMTcJ | im setting up a computer with ubuntu.. im going to use this computer to learn and play with, so im expecting to "break it" often just because of a lack of knowledge.. ive heard that you can put different things such as /etc and /usr on different partitions to lessen the "impact" if you have to reinstall so that you dont loose everything..

| blah569_ | 6008038RIntegrated | 22:18 |
| hischild | fyrmedic, try this and provide the link: sudo aptitude install pastebinit && cat /proc/cpuinfo | pastebinit | 22:18 |
| blah569_ | I think that is it. | 22:18 |
| soundray | fyrmedic: 'cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep processor' -- how many lines? | 22:18 |
| stephan | ok, i'm clueless to this OS, now i know how my mom feels | 22:18 |
| jaffarkelshac | i will just let it login me automatically | 22:18 |
| [watcher] | stephan , lol | 22:19 |
| soundray | stephan: just spend some time with the links you got | 22:19 |
| stephan | how do i go about installing the latest graphics drivers for ATI? | 22:19 |
| soundray | stephan: do what I told you | 22:19 |
| blah569_ | http://support.gateway.com/s/Mobile/Q106/BladeK8F/6008038R/6008038Rmv.shtml | 22:19 |
| stephan | ok | 22:19 |
| blah569_ | That is the wireless card. | 22:19 |
| hacknslash | blah569_, now do lspci -n look for 06:00.0 it will have more numbers after it | 22:19 |
| soundray | stephan: to install the binary driver, go through System-Administration-Restricted Drivers Manager | 22:19 |
| la_coquette_ | #3x | 22:20 |
| fyrmedic | soundray: looks like 1 | 22:20 |
| ankit_ | jaffarkelshac: You would add the "Modes" line like this (replacing with your resolution): http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/61515/ | 22:20 |
| soundray | stephan: that gets you the latest driver that is known compatible with your Ubuntu version | 22:20 |
| soundray | fyrmedic: you have a single-core Turion | 22:20 |
| fyrmedic | hischild: here http://paste.stgraber.org/2098 | 22:20 |
| blah569_ | 06:00.0 0200 10ec:8136 (rev 01) | 22:20 |
| ankit_ | jaffarkelshac: Don't remove anything that's already there though. | 22:20 |
| fyrmedic | soundray: you too | 22:20 |
| toyo|desk | is there any way to record shout cast streams on a schedule with ubuntu? | 22:20 |
| jaffarkelshac | what happened | 22:20 |
| pharoh | hey,how can i get to the compiz-fusion-dev chat room? | 22:21 |
| hischild | fyrmedic, _should_ it be dual core? it appears like a single core | 22:21 |
| soundray | fyrmedic: my wife does | 22:21 |
| ankit_ | pharoh: /join #compiz-fusion-dev | 22:21 |
| ankit_ | pharoh: I'm not sure if you belong there if you can't join it though... | 22:21 |
| pharoh | ankit: how do i do that? | 22:21 |
| stephan | what program do you recomend for music? | 22:21 |
| soundray | !player | stephan | 22:22 |
| ubotu | stephan: Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Audacious, Banshee, Beep Media Player, Listen, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, Exaile, XMMS (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based). Video players: Totem, Xine, MPlayer, VLC, Kaffeine - See also !codecs | 22:22 |
| stephan | winamp obviously does not have a linux version | 22:22 |
| ankit_ | pharoh: Just type it. | 22:22 |
| pharoh | #compiz-fusion-dev | 22:22 |
| stephan | thanks | 22:22 |
| fyrmedic | soundray: Oh ok. I guess that fixes that problem. So it really won't make a lot of difference if I am running 64bit or 32bit. | 22:22 |
| Niriven | Anyone use an ipod touch in ubuntu? | 22:22 |
| soundray | stephan: try audacious if you like WinAmp | 22:22 |
| Kuroachia | If I'm making a partition (fat32) such that it is recognized by both Ubuntu & XP do I need to set a mountpoint? It's just going to be empty storage space for files and some such. | 22:22 |
| hischild | stephan, the linux variation of it would be xmms IIRC | 22:22 |
| soundray | fyrmedic: it does if you have more than 3GB of memory | 22:22 |
| hischild | Kuroachia, using ntfs-3g you can also use ntfs partitions | 22:22 |
| hischild | soundray, that'd be 3,5 | 22:23 |
| hischild | GiB | 22:23 |
| toyo|desk | anyone know any shoutcast stream recording programs | 22:23 |
| toyo|desk | ? | 22:23 |
| toyo|desk | specifically that work on schedule | 22:23 |
| blah569_ | This is it: 06:00.0 0200 10ec:8136 (rev 01) | 22:23 |
| toyo|desk | so I can set it to record shows that I miss | 22:23 |
| fyrmedic | soundray: Well I believe that I installed 64 but don't remember for sure. And I dont have that much ram. Besides it's my wifes computer. I am off to fix the next bugger. | 22:23 |
| blah569_ | This IRC channel moves rapidly fast. | 22:24 |
| fyrmedic | I am sure I will have another question soon. | 22:24 |
| soundray | fyrmedic: I told you how to check whether you have amd64 installed | 22:24 |
| soundray | fyrmedic: 'uname -a' and look out for x86_64 in the string | 22:24 |
| * toyo|desk is starting to think this is too hard | 22:24 | |
| hacknslash | blah569_, this seems to be a realtek 8139 network card not a wireless adapter | 22:24 |
| Kuroachia | hischild: but from the ubuntu live CD it doesn't give me the option to do an NTFS formatted partition, shoud I just leave the space unpartitioned and deal with it once I have ubuntu installed? | 22:25 |
| blah569_ | Well, wireless works on Windows on this same laptop. | 22:25 |
| bullgard4 | Why shows System > Administration > Services [Services settings] apmd switched on but acpid switched off although there is a process 'kacpid'? | 22:26 |
| stephan | hmm.. im taking a liking to linux now, if only i could play my XP based games | 22:26 |
| hacknslash | blah569_, type this in a terminal sudo lshw -C network | 22:26 |
| pharoh | hey does anyone know where i an get really good theme that'll change my window colour? | 22:26 |
| legend2440 | toyo|desk: http://www.instructables.com/id/Schedule-Streaming-Audio-Recordings-in-Ubuntu/ | 22:26 |
| jaffarkelshac | stephan, use wine, some games work | 22:26 |
| fyrmedic | soundray; right, I did that and it doesn't say 64bit anywhere. I tried it with ' and ` | 22:26 |
| stephan | well, i have 2 hard drives, one for xp (games) and now one for ubuntu | 22:26 |
| soundray | bullgard4: kacpid is a kernel process. It runs independently of the daemon, which you control via Services. | 22:27 |
| toyo|desk | legend2440, thanks I will take a look | 22:27 |
| toyo|desk | see if I can get it | 22:27 |
| jaffarkelshac | stephan, you mean you dont want to install your games again? | 22:27 |
| blah569_ | okw7 | 22:27 |
| fyrmedic | soundray; ok now I did it open and it is 64bit. Thank you. | 22:27 |
| blah569_ | Okay * | 22:27 |
| blah569_ | I recieve some network inforation. | 22:27 |
| blah569_ | information * | 22:27 |
| Kuroachia | After I install ubuntu what can I use to make an NTFS-3g partition from some unused space? | 22:27 |
| soundray | Arky44: how are you getting on? | 22:28 |
| blah569_ | It provides loads of network infrmation. | 22:28 |
| blah569_ | about the Realtek. | 22:28 |
| hacknslash | blah569_, does one say wireless information | 22:28 |
| Arky44 | soundray: I've finally got ubuntu on a CD and I can boot from the CD. When the ubuntu startup screen (for lack of a better word) comes up, I click "Start or install ubuntu", and I get 2 error messages, one about an invalid compressed format, and the other about "kernel panic" | 22:28 |
| blah569_ | I'm not sure. | 22:28 |
| blah569_ | I do not see the word "wireless" | 22:28 |
| bullgard4 | soundray: Right. So far I thought that all power management on my rather modern laptop computer is done via ACPI. Is this wrong? | 22:29 |
| soundray | Arky44: this means your CD burning has failed, or your download was faulty. | 22:29 |
| jaffarkelshac | Arky44, did you check the cd intergrity | 22:29 |
| Kuroachia | After I install ubuntu what can I use to make an NTFS-3g partition from some unused space? | 22:29 |
| soundray | bullgard4: no | 22:29 |
| hacknslash | blah tell me top 3 lines after *-network | 22:29 |
| Arky44 | jaffarkelshac: no | 22:29 |
| hacknslash | blah569_, tell me top 3 lines after *-network | 22:29 |
| fyrmedic | Ok, The next problem that haunts me is that the volume icon in the system tray doesn't seem to control the volume of the system. Any solutions? | 22:29 |
| bullgard4 | soundray: Thank you for commenting. | 22:29 |
| jaffarkelshac | Arky44, there should be a option to check, can you test it on different pc | 22:30 |
| blah569_ | Okay | 22:30 |
| OMGZORZ | hey ya'll | 22:30 |
| stephan | i was wondering, using wine, is there any way i can set my xp drive to slave, then run the games off that? | 22:30 |
| soundray | Arky44: you should run md5sum on the downloaded file, and if the md5sum is the same as published on the Ubuntu side, then at least your download is okay and you just have to burn once more (set a slower burn speed this time) | 22:30 |
| OMGZORZ | I'm trying to find drivers for the EMachines M6810 | 22:30 |
| soundray | !md5sum | Arky44 | 22:30 |

| jaffarkelshac | stephan, you mean mounting your other hdd | 22:31 |
| hacknslash | blah569_, does it list another *-network | 22:31 |
| jaffarkelshac | soundray, i had that, after almost 700mb for a crap cd | 22:31 |

| toyo|desk | there must be an easer way | 22:32 |
| jaffarkelshac | soundray, i thought it was you who asked the question | 22:33 |
| jaffarkelshac | Arky44, burn the cd again maybe the iso is not damaged | 22:33 |

| soundray | wootemp: you mean a USB ID? | 23:05 |
| rama_su | Ubuntu's best music player is? :p | 23:05 |
| gidna | Who is using a vaio? | 23:05 |
| soundray | !best | rama_su | 23:06 |
| POVaddct | wootemp: which usb id was it? | 23:06 |
| nickrud | rama_su the one you like best | 23:06 |
| ubotu | rama_su: 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. | 23:06 |
| eth01 | gidna: why? | 23:06 |
| Odd-rationale | HoboBen: ok. just do "mkfs.ext3 -L youdisklabel /dev/sdb1" assuming /dev/sdb1 is the device you want to format to ext3 and yourdisklabel is the label you want for the partition. | 23:06 |
| Slart | rama_su: mpd is nice =) | 23:06 |
| gidna | I can't write this ~ char whit the keyboard | 23:06 |
| rama_su | ahh ok thanks ^_^ | 23:06 |

| pavilion | If I'm going to install Ubuntu on an old dinosaur laptop (300 mhz 128mb ram)... am I better off using the latest Ubuntu release (Gutsy) or should I use an older version/release? | 23:06 |

| |WolF1 | i have a problem, so any one pls help me, I paste everything here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/61522/ | 23:06 |
| gidna | yes it is | 23:07 |
| HoboBen | Odd-rationale - thank you! I should have looked at the command line parameters, I guess :) | 23:07 |
| unikon | soundray The document could not be saved, as it was not possible to write to file:///var/lib/dpkg/info/googleearth-data.list. is what i got in kate | 23:07 |
| nickrud | gidna ask on #ubuntu-it , sure to get a quick answer there ;) | 23:07 |
| wootemp | soundray: uh... I dunno. here's what I got: "Bus 001 Device 005: ID 1630:ff81" | 23:07 |
| Slart | pavilion: I don't think the older versions are necessary faster.. I'd go with xubuntu gutsy and see how it handles that | 23:07 |
| Jaymac | Is help.ubuntu.com down? the rest of the website loads for me... | 23:07 |
| jaffarkelshac | tired of typing sudo aptitude install over and over, use alias a way to make like easier in terminal | 23:07 |
| pavilion | What's with the "X" in front of ubuntu, Slart? | 23:07 |
| pavilion | Ubuntu != Xubuntu? | 23:07 |
| Slart | pavilion: you might need the alternate install cd with that amount of memory.. | 23:07 |
| deniz__ | Slart, i dint get u :( | 23:07 |
| Jaymac | pavilion: xubuntu uses the Xfce window manager | 23:08 |
| gidna | I write the codes.. | 23:08 |
| gidna | 127 .. 128 but anything happens | 23:08 |
| |WolF1 | can any one read me? "( | 23:08 |
| nickrud | gidna type /j #ubuntu-it , that's the italian channel. They know italian keyboards | 23:08 |
| Slart | pavilion: it's a version of ubuntu that doesn't use gnome.. instead it uses xfce..less bling bling.. but it takes a little less power too | 23:08 |
| Jaymac | !hi | |WolF1 | 23:08 |
| ubotu | |WolF1: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 23:08 |

| |WolF1 | i have a problem, so any one pls help me, I paste everything here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/61522/ | 23:08 |
| pavilion | Makes sense... don't need the "bling bling", thx Slart. | 23:08 |
| eth01 | |WolF1: patience my friend | 23:08 |
| gidna | nickrud I did it but nobody knows | 23:09 |
| |WolF1 | ok eth01 when i know i've been read :) | 23:09 |
| |WolF1 | i'll wait :) | 23:09 |
| unikon | eth01 | 23:09 |
| unikon | soundray | 23:09 |
| unikon | still not working | 23:09 |
| fuhreal | deniz__: nah.... won't change from alt+f8 | 23:09 |
| nickrud | gidna hm. they told you where the key was supposed to be, but it doesn't work? What happens? | 23:09 |
| Slart | deniz__: screenlets is a collection of nice looking small applets you can use for your desktop.. there is a pretty nice clock there.. | 23:09 |
| unikon | wasnt able to edit it | 23:09 |
| Slart | pavilion: you're welcome | 23:10 |
| === j is now known as DB-DX | ||
| LjL | gidna: actually, you didn't *ask* | 23:10 |
| eth01 | unikon: pardon? | 23:10 |
| nickrud | unikon you need to use sudo to edit that file | 23:10 |
| gidna | only on vaio doesn't run | 23:10 |
| deniz__ | fuhreal, only two keys at a time.. | 23:10 |
| pavilion | One more thing... what'd you mean by the "Alternate Install CD" ? | 23:11 |
| LjL | gidna, the italian layout should have ~ as AltGr + ^ | 23:11 |
| === ZehRique is now known as ZehRique_OFF | ||
| soundray | unikon: 'gksudo gedit /var/lib/dpkg/info/googleearth-data.postrm' | 23:11 |
| Slart | pavilion: it's another install cd that isn't a live cd.. it uses a text based installation procedure.. so it uses less memory. | 23:11 |
| Slart | !alternate | pavilion | 23:11 |
| ubotu | pavilion: 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 | 23:11 |
| pavilion | thanks ppl, yer good | 23:12 |

| gluer | brack10: VB will do it, i run vista with CS3 | 23:15 |
| Jaymac | deniz__: yeah that'd be helpful, to see if you can access it | 23:15 |

| Jaymac | deniz__: yeah.. then it eventually times out | 23:18 |
| Traveler5 | Can anyone help with my network problems? | 23:18 |
| legend2440 | |WolF1: do you get errors if you click Reload in synaptic? | 23:18 |

| Odd-rationale | Jaymac: you can't connect to https://help.ubuntu.com/ | 23:19 |

| deniz__ | Jaymac, o | 23:20 |
| Traveler5 | My IP is dynamic, I'm pretty sure, though I did once set up a static one for my own computer before formatting teh harddrive to install Ubuntu. | 23:20 |
| Jaymac | Odd-rationale: neither http:// nor https:// work for me | 23:20 |
| Traveler5 | I'm trying to connect to a wired network. | 23:20 |
| Odd-rationale | Jaymac: hmm. Is there a medibuntu repo for hardy already? | 23:20 |
| bazhang | www.medibuntu.org Jaymac | 23:20 |
| |WolF1 | legend2440: when i pressed reload it started to download some 68 packages | 23:20 |
| Traveler5 | So it's really confusing me as to why it wouldn't work. | 23:20 |
| Jaymac | Odd-rationale: not sure, which is why i was trying to access it.. | 23:20 |
| Traveler5 | It's simply not connecting. | 23:20 |
| bazhang | Jaymac: the ubuntu help site finally loaded | 23:20 |
| Odd-rationale | Jaymac: let me check... | 23:20 |
| Jaymac | bazhang: I know, but the medibuntu repository how-to page redirects to the help.ubuntu.com domain :) | 23:21 |
| legend2440 | |WolF1: those are probably package updates | 23:21 |
| |Porsche | How do i find out the 0x000 port of a piece of hardware? | 23:21 |
| bazhang | Traveler5: open up a terminal and type ifconfig and see if it lists eth0 | 23:21 |
| |WolF1 | legend2440: so will it work now? | 23:21 |
| Traveler5 | A terminal? | 23:22 |

| === nox-Hand_ is now known as FnuggleMaster | ||
| Traveler5 | Yes, eth0 shows up. | 23:23 |
| jaffarkelshac | bazhang, alt f2 terminal does not work, gnome-terminal works though | 23:23 |
| bazhang | Traveler5: try sudo dhclient eth0 | 23:23 |
| |WolF1 | legend2440: when i press apply now it tells me that it will remove file-roller, so i think that it shouldn't remove that ? | 23:24 |
| HoboBen | Odd-rationale: Thanks for the tip earlier - it didn't work at first, but actually turning the drive on and off sorted it. Perfect! | 23:25 |

| darklajid | Hi there. Just curious: Is wiki.ubuntu.com awfully slow or is it my ISP? Other sites work fine, but most sites on that site time out. | 23:39 |
| xiko | is there a way to get the network driver that the live cd loads and copy it to a hd and install it manually | 23:39 |
| bazhang | Traveler5: the one you want to fix | 23:39 |
| Scunizi | darklajid, they might be having problems.. help.ubuntu.com is up and down too | 23:39 |

| daemoen | does ubuntu not support lvm based installation in its installer? | 23:39 |

| daemoen | sorry, lvm based partitioning. | 23:40 |

| |WolF1 | soundray: thanks a LOT mate | 23:40 |
| rendero | hello, anybody can tell me how to connect Ubuntu to a Smoothwall ? In w$ i do this : in tcp/ip i put ip=10.0.0.25 subnetmask=255.255.255.0 gateway=10.0.0.1 , and 10.0.0.1 / 10.0.0.3 for the dns, putting this in network-admin does not work and knetwork or something like that is broken, i think i have to do with ifconfig, but i think i have to put somebroadcast ip or something, is there a tutorial ? | 23:40 |
| Scunizi | daemoen, you have to install with the alternate cd to get lvm | 23:40 |
| xiko | with the right live cd as well | 23:40 |
| anaoum | daemoen: u need the alternate cd | 23:40 |
| soundray | !alternate | daemoen | 23:40 |
| ubotu | daemoen: 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 | 23:40 |
| * daemoen sighs | 23:40 | |
| Traveler5 | scunizi, bazhang, thanks for the help. Dinner's ready though, so I gotta step away for a bit. I should be back in a little bit if I still can't get it working. | 23:40 |
| anaoum | xiko: so when u installed it, ur thernet no longer worked? or ur wireless? | 23:40 |
| bazhang | Traveler5: I have to eat too ;] | 23:40 |

| xiko | anaoum: my video card is the same but the networkd isnt | 23:41 |
| soundray | daemoen: not at all. LVM is all great and fine, but hard to fix if you have a problem. Ubuntu is aimed at end users, not experimentalists | 23:42 |
| anaoum | xiko: what hardware is it exactly | 23:42 |

| AgentHeX | i've just installed privoxy and tor through synaptic. does anyone know how to use them with firefox? i also installed torbutton to easily switch my proxy settings. | 23:49 |

| JustJaden | I just installed Ubuntu, Windows was corrupt and wiped from my Hardrive. I do not have any way to reload Windows, so I am at the mercy of an operating system I don't know very well. The interface seems simple enough to understand. Where will I begin running into complications? | 23:49 |
| stephan | oh, is there any way i can get programs to work under 32bit? | 23:49 |
| levander | Is there a gesture plugin for compiz? | 23:49 |

| bazhang | !training | JustJaden | 23:50 |
| ubotu | JustJaden: A desktop course manual for Ubuntu 7.10 can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Training | 23:50 |
| stephan | there are several programs what wont work under 64 bit? | 23:50 |
| bazhang | levander: best ask that in #compiz-fusion | 23:51 |
| Nith | Does anyone remember how to make your tty's use a higher resolution? | 23:51 |
| Scunizi | stephan, for those that run 64 bit they know their system pretty well and can make/force most things to work.. for the rest of us.. 32bit just works | 23:51 |
| joshudson | well that was dumb of me. I wanted to update to kde4, so I did apt-get dist-upgrade ; apt-get remove kde apt-get install kde4 | 23:51 |
| LjL | Nith: a way is to give the "vga=xxx" option in the kernel line ("vga=ask" will give you a list) | 23:51 |
| joshudson | should ahve removed kde before dist-upgrade | 23:51 |
| HoboBen | stephan - When it's closed source (e.g. Adobe Flash) I don't think anyone can force them to produce a new 64 bit version | 23:51 |
| evan_ | does any one know how to get the ¨File Edit View Bookmarks Help¨ menu from mac tot the deskbar? | 23:52 |
| stephan | oh, i installed 64 bit (im new to linux) is there any way to go back without have to re-install everything? | 23:52 |
| Jaymac | penol: Administration > Language Support | 23:52 |
| Nith | LjL: thx :) | 23:52 |
| Scunizi | joshudson, not sure how but I read that you can have both 3.xx and 4 at the same time | 23:52 |
| bazhang | joshudson: no need; you can choose kde or kde4 | 23:52 |
| R^3_DevelAdmin | how do i use desktop search in gutsy? i used to have beagle before, but now i don't think that works | 23:52 |
| stephan | is there any way to run 32 bit programs without having to re-install the OS? | 23:52 |
| RoAkSoAx | stephan, like what programs? | 23:53 |
| HoboBen | stephan - install 32 bit firefox, it should work | 23:53 |
| HoboBen | (with the 32bit player) | 23:53 |
| stephan | i can install wine | 23:53 |
| Scunizi | R^3_DevelAdmin, put a deskbar icon on the top panel and that's it.. it uses tracker | 23:53 |
| stephan | cant* | 23:53 |
| RoAkSoAx | stephan, you CAN install wine in amd64 | 23:53 |
| stephan | how? it will not allow me | 23:53 |
| RoAkSoAx | stephan, sudo apt-get install wine | 23:54 |
| Scunizi | stephan, if you end up installing again I suggest making your /home partition separate from everything else.. it makes it easier in the future. | 23:54 |
| HoboBen | stephan: is http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1174435 <- that any help? | 23:54 |
| bazhang | stephan: if you have this many problems using 64bit you should consider switching to 32 bit; there seems to be a way to set up a chroot 32bit app though it is a bit complicated | 23:54 |

| JustJaden | how do I download and install Wine. I'm not sure why I need it, but a lot of sites are telling me to. | 23:55 |
| stephan | i really do not feel like installing 32 bit, i just finished moving all my files over | 23:56 |
| SonicEpsilon | sudo apt-get install wine? | 23:56 |
| stephan | unless there is a way i can install over it | 23:56 |
| schnauzer93 | Sonic: http://linux.about.com/od/ubuntu_doc/a/ubudg26t2.htm | 23:56 |
| stephan | yes i got wine installed | 23:56 |
| stephan | rather, its downloading | 23:56 |
| HoboBen | JustJaden - it's used to run Windows programs *inside* Ubuntu. | 23:56 |
| bazhang | stephan: then some reading is in order; this is not the 64bit training channel | 23:56 |
| JustJaden | how do you get i? | 23:56 |

| bazhang | JustJaden: from the terminal sudo apt-get install wine | 23:57 |
| HoboBen | JustJaden: Although it's not always perfect. Try opening a terminal, and type "sudo apt-get install wine" | 23:57 |
| JustJaden | Whats a terminal? | 23:57 |
| Scunizi | R^3_DevelAdmin, the deskbar when searching has the option of using tracker or not.. not sure what the other is. It might be beagle | 23:57 |
| stephan | applications> accessories> terminal | 23:57 |
| HoboBen | JustJaden: Applications > Accessories > Terminal | 23:57 |
