| ubotu | mehmet: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 00:00 |

| unop_ | Xorothal, and this is an educated guess - your proxy server is denying connections to it because it thinks traffic is originating from out on the internet rather than your LAN | 00:00 |
|---|
| happyface_ | soundray: I also need to mention that I switched from an LCD to a CRT monitor, different resolutions | 00:00 |
|---|
| michael__ | giordani: it turns on by itself after you turn it off? | 00:00 |
|---|
| giordani | yes | 00:00 |
|---|
| mehmet | amenado: is all that neccisary? | 00:00 |
|---|
| kraypius | I need help. i accidently disabled the ability to login to root via webmin and i dont know how to undo it... im sure it just modified a standard file on the machine or something | 00:00 |
|---|
| BixBox | amenado: no, I think its from source | 00:00 |

| Datz | Hi, how do I change my password for openssh?? | 00:00 |

| arang2 | guys i have a problem when i open my gmail the processor spikes high to the 80 or 99% in firefox 2.0.0.13 im using ubuntu gutsy 32 bits in a core 2 duo t5250 | 00:00 |

|---|
| mehmet | for ubntu | 00:00 |
|---|
| amenado | mehmet-> do you have an ethernet interface? wireless? can you paste your ifconfig; route -n in pastebin please | 00:00 |
|---|
| Starnestommy | comicinker: gcc -Dthing_to_define -o file.o file.c | 00:00 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | Datz, Change your user's password | 00:01 |
|---|
| unop_ | Datz, you change your user password | 00:01 |
|---|
| soundray | happyface_: there are two things you can do: remove the 'quiet splash' kernel options in /boot/grub/menu.lst | 00:01 |
|---|
| Datz | Jordanm thanx | 00:01 |
|---|
| mehmet | i have ethernet | 00:01 |
|---|
| comicinker | Starnestommy: I'll try, thanks | 00:01 |
|---|
| giordani | michael__, : yes | 00:01 |
|---|
| jaffarkelshac | does anyone know any channel for discussing computer hardware | 00:01 |
|---|
| amenado | mehmet-> giving us only half of the information, you'd only get half of the answers | 00:01 |
|---|
| Datz | and unop * | 00:01 |
|---|
| Starnestommy | jaffarkelshac: ##hardware ? | 00:01 |
|---|
| unop_ | jaffarkelshac, #hardware probably | 00:01 |
|---|
| michael__ | giordani: ok you see your battery meter up top | 00:01 |
|---|
| amenado | mehmet-> and please put that nick in front on your responses.. | 00:01 |

| roeinstein | how can I add a "my computer" icon to my desktop? what is the command to launch the file system? | 00:01 |
|---|
| soundray | happyface_: or pass a vga= option by modifying that same file. Ubotu will send you a factoid about boot options as a private message | 00:01 |
|---|
| giordani | my batttery don't work | 00:01 |
|---|
| Mighty_Penguin | erle-: i didnt know that, i could use it but i'll stick to 32bit, even though i have 4gb of ram | 00:02 |
|---|
| soundray | !bootoptions > happyface_ | 00:02 |
|---|
| comicinker | Starnestommy: thanks, worked great. jipie | 00:02 |
|---|
| michael__ | giordani: sppp waiit you dont have a meter in the upper right hand corner? | 00:02 |
|---|
| happyface_ | thanks soundray, ill try that | 00:02 |
|---|
| Mighty_Penguin | i'd rather have a base system instead of a system built for a server | 00:02 |
|---|
| happyface_ | soundray: will it also fix my consoles not working? (ctr+alt+f1-f6)? | 00:02 |
|---|
| giordani | no because mu battery is off | 00:02 |
|---|
| BrainBug | anyone? "unable to mount CD-ROM" somewhere in the installer, i just installed srv2003 and this one works fine... but i dont like it :P so pls help me :-) | 00:02 |
|---|
| mehmet | amenado: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/62190/ | 00:02 |
|---|
| giordani | don't work | 00:03 |
|---|
| michael__ | giordani: ok then go into system/power managment | 00:03 |
|---|
| giordani | ok, than? | 00:03 |
|---|
| soundray | happyface_: yes. BTW, if your monitor supports 1024x768, a good one is vga=0x371 | 00:03 |
|---|
| happyface_ | thx | 00:03 |
|---|
| arooni | what is a web browser (still with gui) that is NOT firefox? | 00:03 |
|---|
| Xorothal | unop_: I've just set it all up so that it's 193. etc and it still doesn't work | 00:03 |
|---|
| unop_ | BrainBug, you probably want to verify that the CD and the .ISO you downloaded | 00:03 |
|---|
| soundray | arooni: epiphany, konqueror | 00:03 |
|---|
| roeinstein | how can I add a "my computer" icon to my desktop? what is the command to launch the file system box? | 00:03 |
|---|
| michael__ | giordani: ok then go into system/prefrences/power managment and dude i dont even know ive never heard of your computer turning back on unless your just putting it to sleep \ | 00:04 |
|---|
| amenado | mehmet-> that seemed to look okay, can you ping 192.168.1.1 ? | 00:04 |
|---|
| BrainBug | unop_,did and done:-) but the problem is not with 1 cd , i tried 5 and all of them same error ... really strange | 00:04 |
|---|
| mehmet | hahah now it is working | 00:04 |
|---|
| mehmet | thanks | 00:04 |
|---|
| giordani | i don't know why is that | 00:04 |
|---|
| Xorothal | unop_ is gone | 00:04 |
|---|
| BixBox | its the error msg include firebird.log >> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/62191/ | 00:04 |
|---|
| michael__ | giordani: because your os doesnt control the computer when its off like no power dead so its damn near impossible for that to happen but we can see if we can get anyone else here to help out | 00:04 |
|---|
| Xorothal | can anyone else help? | 00:04 |
|---|
| arang2 | guys i have a problem when i open my gmail the processor spikes high to the 80 or 99% in firefox 2.0.0.13 im using ubuntu gutsy 32 bits in a core 2 duo t5250 | 00:04 |
|---|
| BrainBug | unop_,did and done:-) but the problem is not with 1 cd , i tried 5 and all of them same error ... really strange | 00:05 |
|---|
| unop_ | Xorothal, 193.x.x.x is also public -- use one of 10.x.x.x, 172.16.x.x-172.32.x.x or 192.168.x.x | 00:05 |
|---|
| Xorothal | d'oh! | 00:05 |
|---|
| unop_ | BrainBug, well, did you verify the ISO file you downloaded against the md5 or sha1 sum? | 00:05 |
|---|
| BrainBug | unop_, yes and tried it on other pc and works like a charm | 00:05 |
|---|
| michael__ | hey can anyone help me help giordani with his power issues he says that when he turn his computer off it turns itself back on after a min | 00:05 |
|---|
| soundray | arang2: what's the problem with that? | 00:06 |
|---|
| amenado | arang2-> do this, ps aux >> test1.txt before launching gmail processor, then do same after you launched it ps aux >> test2.txt , and compare the two | 00:06 |
|---|
| jaffarkelshac | hmm Starnestommy unop_ checked it might be vlc | 00:06 |
|---|
| BrainBug | giordani, place another volatebox with some ligthbulb , so u can turn on and off :P | 00:06 |
|---|
| BrainBug | voltage* | 00:06 |
|---|
| cosmodad | what happens with /etc/cron.d jobs when the system isn't running at the time of scheduling? I suppose anacron can't deal with that, so will such jobs just be postponed to the next interval? | 00:07 |
|---|
| unop_ | BrainBug, well, the error you have given us there is quite vague -- perhaps some context is needed to troubleshoot better, where do you get the error? at what stage? do you do anything unusual? | 00:07 |
|---|
| michael__ | Brainbug: hahaha yeah im thinking he maybe be mistakingly putting it to sleep because its impossible to do what hes saying its doing | 00:07 |
|---|
| unop_ | cosmodad, i'm assuming the jobs don't run if crond isn't running | 00:07 |
|---|
| michael__ | Brainbug: unless its an hardware issue | 00:08 |
|---|
| giordani | BrainBug, : i'm with this voltagebox 3 years and i don't have any problem until yesterday | 00:08 |
|---|
| BrainBug | michael_, u just never know... | 00:08 |
|---|
| boxybrown | ok i have a question about: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixCompleteVirtualMailSystemHowto im going to try and get thunderbird to connect and get and send mail, what ports/security do i set up under account info? | 00:08 |
|---|
| cosmodad | unop_: I suppose so to, but wondered if there was some anacron-like mechanism for cron.d/ too | 00:08 |
|---|
| unop_ | cosmodad, by crond i meant anacron | 00:08 |
|---|
| soundray | giordani: it could be a fault in the power switch on your computer, or the power supply | 00:08 |
|---|
| BrainBug | giordani, so u press shutdown and he reboots? maybe if u say he wakes up , try bios find boot options maybe there? | 00:08 |
|---|
| Kr|ptiX | how do i update my intel 954GM driver cause im haven graphic problems when tryn to play world of warcraft | 00:08 |
|---|
| cosmodad | unop_: anacron doesn't handle anything shorter than daily jobs anyway. | 00:09 |
|---|
| arang2 | soundray: the processor goes to 100% in conky n htop (both) till i go back to the old gmail version | 00:09 |
|---|
| arang2 | soundray: im usin a core 2 duo t5250 | 00:09 |
|---|
| Johne5 | what are fake webcam drivers called? WDM? | 00:09 |
|---|
| unop_ | cosmodad, it should work the same way, irrespective of the cron daemon you use -- anacron doesn't support hourly jobs or even shorter?? | 00:09 |
|---|
| Xorothal | unop_: I'm now on 172.168.0.2 and it's working! thanks so much | 00:09 |
|---|
| cosmodad | unop_: anacron isn't really a cron replacement, it's a supplement. | 00:10 |
|---|
| * C3s4r is back (gone 02:32:23) | 00:10 |
| soundray | arang2: so gmail is running some CPU-intensive tasks, probably Javascript. I still can't see the problem. | 00:10 |
|---|
| unop_ | Xorothal, you werent listening.. you are bound to bump into other problems if you continue using that address range | 00:10 |
|---|
| arang2 | soundray: problem is that the spike last forever | 00:10 |
|---|
| BrainBug | unop_, this guy basically got same problem, http://www.ubuntux.org/unable-to-mount-cd-rom-during-installation , it happens after u pick a language then goes to detect hardware he detects all, then mount CD-ROM he tries multiple times (alt+f4) but all failed... | 00:10 |
|---|
| neeto | Is there a way that I can update 7.10 to 8.04 seamlessly? | 00:10 |
|---|
| Xorothal | unop_: sorry, I meant 172.16.0.2 | 00:11 |
|---|
| arang2 | soundray: i open gmail n it hogs the processor till i close it or till i switch to the old version | 00:11 |
|---|
| Xorothal | arang2: try it with noscript | 00:11 |
|---|
| soundray | arang2: ah, okay. By definition, a spike is something that lasts for a very short time | 00:11 |
|---|
| unop_ | Xorothal, right right, thats better :) | 00:11 |
|---|
| giordani | when i'm press shutdown the pc putting itself to hibernate or suspend and he wake after 1 minute I THIK SO :P | 00:12 |
|---|
| arang2 | soundray: i know sorry for the lack of clearness | 00:12 |
|---|
| arang2 | Xorothal: explain pls | 00:12 |
|---|
| michael__ | why worry about 8.10 its not out till october | 00:12 |
|---|
| BrainBug | unop_, out here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4652679 they say that burning at 4x will do the trick but lowest i can burn is 8x... | 00:12 |
|---|
| BrainBug | unop_,and i just installed 32x srv2003 | 00:12 |
|---|
| amenado | arang2-> just for comparison, on fedora there is this npviewer.bin that causes your firefox to be slow because it also hogs the cpu of 40% or so, its flash related, | 00:12 |
|---|
| Xorothal | arang2: try disabling javascript if you haven;t got the noscript extension | 00:13 |
|---|
| soundray | arang2: how long have you waited while it was hogging the CPU? | 00:13 |
|---|
| unop_ | BrainBug, the srv2003 part is irrelevant to anything here :) there's little use saying "well this works on windows, but not on ubuntu" because obviously ubuntu is not windows, it has issues of its own | 00:13 |
|---|
| arang2 | soundray: several minutes | 00:13 |
|---|
| unop_ | BrainBug, you could try installing via the alternate CD .. perhaps that makes a difference | 00:14 |
|---|
| === C3s4r is now known as C3s4r-aWay |
| BrainBug | unop_, true but i thought if it would work with him at 32x why wouldnt linux.. iam installing from alternate | 00:14 |
|---|
| * C3s4r-aWay is Away, Reason: ( l ) | Since: ( Friday, April 4, 2008. 18:30:50 ) Xlack v2.1 | 00:14 |
| soundray | arang2: well, I'd go with the noscript suggestion. You might also try 'firefox -safe-mode' | 00:14 |
|---|
| === C3s4r-aWay is now known as C3s4r |
| darkcrab | if you have a mac just burn it with disk utility | 00:14 |
|---|
| * C3s4r is back ( Away 12 secs ) | 00:15 |
| darkcrab | thats what I do | 00:15 |
|---|
| Starnestommy | C3s4r: please turn off those public announcements | 00:15 |

| boxybrown | i get "sending of password did not succeed. Mail server 192.168.1.120 responded: chdir Maildir failed" | 00:15 |
|---|
| boxybrown | after followign https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixCompleteVirtualMailSystemHowto | 00:15 |
|---|
| tohtorijep | sry for bothering, if there is anyone who knows something about dm-crypt/cryptsetup please msg me | 00:15 |
|---|
| boxybrown | i really need to get things going so if anyone could help that would be great | 00:16 |
|---|
| unop_ | BrainBug, well, like i said, the error that you get is too vague (atleast without context) to make a definitive assumption about what is wrong .. it could be down to a number of things, have you tried a netboot or minimal CD yet? | 00:16 |
|---|
| tohtorijep | i lost my device mapper, i have the password and crypted partition but i dont know how to open it | 00:16 |
|---|
| maestrojed | how do I see a list of all users and or user groups | 00:17 |
|---|

| BrainBug | unop_, nope not yet... cause he aint in network (yet) | 00:17 |

|---|
| Xorothal | how can I disable the bootup splash screen? | 00:20 |
|---|
| unop_ | Xorothal, dont take this the wrong way, you can ask !google that question :) | 00:21 |
|---|
| amenado | Xorothal-> not to discourage you, but have you tried to use google ? | 00:21 |
|---|
| unop_ | amenado, ha ha | 00:21 |
|---|
| amenado | hehe...we think alike | 00:21 |
|---|
| linxeh | maybe his organisation has been banned from google, like mine :P | 00:22 |
|---|
| AVFC1 | compiz fusion wasnt working for me, and after searching i found someone on the ubuntu forum say that they fixed it by un-installing and re-installing in synaptic, but when i try to re-install them it says "Package compiz-core has no available version, but exists in the database. | 00:22 |
|---|
| AVFC1 | This typically means that the package was mentioned in a dependency and never uploaded, has been obsoleted or is not available with the contents of sources.list" | 00:22 |
|---|
| AVFC1 | and the same for compiz-gnome | 00:22 |
|---|
| Xorothal | amenado, unop_: sorry, yes | 00:22 |
|---|
| unop_ | linxeh, well, you can ask yahoo - or <with disgust> live.com :) | 00:22 |
|---|
| linxeh | unop_: :) we get banned from lots of sites. too many unique cookies coming from one proxy IP I guess | 00:23 |
|---|
| ashaibani | is this a real person | 00:23 |
|---|
| linxeh | unop_: he could ask the ubuntu wiki though :) | 00:23 |
|---|
| ashaibani | is anyone here | 00:23 |
|---|
| unop_ | Xorothal, well, i typed this out in google and surprise, surprise - http://www.google.co.uk/search?complete=1&hl=en&q=disable+ubuntu+splash+screen&btnG=Google+Search&meta=&aq=f | 00:23 |
|---|
| ashaibani | can any read this!!! | 00:23 |
|---|
| linxeh | ashaibani: no. nobody here. it's all robots | 00:23 |
|---|
| BrainBug | ashaibani, no none here:p | 00:23 |
|---|
| ashaibani | rofl | 00:23 |
|---|
| ashaibani | finally | 00:23 |
|---|
| BrainBug | lol | 00:23 |
|---|
| ashaibani | well | 00:23 |
|---|
| Xorothal | unop_: no I mean I should have asked google | 00:24 |
|---|
| michael__ | ahaibani: nope im not here at all =P | 00:24 |
|---|
| ashaibani | im having extreme problems with ubuntu. same problems im having with ubuntu that made me leave windows | 00:24 |
|---|
| linxeh | ashaibani: finally?!? give people a chance. it can take several seconds for messages to go backwards and forwards over the globe... | 00:24 |
|---|
| linxeh | ashaibani: what problems? | 00:24 |
|---|
| ashaibani | no i mean finally i get it working | 00:24 |
|---|
| michael__ | ahaibani: well give us specifics | 00:24 |
|---|
| unop_ | Xorothal, ohh yea, sometimes google is better, faster, easier to work with than actual humans :) | 00:24 |
|---|
| ashaibani | cuase my irc wasnt working for a while | 00:24 |
|---|
| ignotus | hi, how can I set an enviromental variable in all of my system (ESPEAKER)? I log in through gdm | 00:24 |
|---|
| djjd | http://youtube.com/watch?v=xC5uEe5OzNQ Anyone know what effect that is when the window gets closed it is like the fire plugin but looks like it is multicolored | 00:24 |
|---|
| linxeh | ignotus: /etc/bashrc or /etc/profile | 00:25 |
|---|
| Zelta | nikrud: Are you here? | 00:25 |
|---|
| ignotus | linxeh: thanks | 00:25 |
|---|
| linxeh | ignotus: or /etc/profile.d/ | 00:25 |
|---|
| unop_ | ignotus, errm, edit your ~/.bashrc and use a line like. export ESPEAKER="blah" | 00:25 |
|---|
| linxeh | ignotus: I would go with that last one | 00:25 |
|---|
| linxeh | unop_: presumably he meant all users though | 00:25 |
|---|
| ashaibani | well...for one...my the bars ontop of windows randomly disappears. it cant find the driver for my tv card. my panels always delete themselves when i restart and go back to how i didnt want them. there is freez time when i use firefox. amarok constantly freezes, when i change songs. | 00:25 |
|---|
| unop_ | linxeh, editing the system profiles might be undesirable -- other users might not like his preference .. and editing ~/.bashrc is IMO safer | 00:26 |
|---|
| linxeh | ashaibani: maybe you have broken RAM or a broken motherboard if Windows did the same things | 00:26 |
|---|
| linxeh | unop_: true - but he did say "in all of my system" | 00:26 |
|---|
| ashaibani | windows froze | 00:26 |
|---|
| ashaibani | a lot | 00:26 |
|---|
| ashaibani | actually no | 00:26 |
|---|
| ignotus | linxeh unop_ thank you, but will .bashrc run if I don't open a terminal? | 00:26 |
|---|
| ashaibani | ubuntu is worst then my windows | 00:26 |
|---|
| ashaibani | honestly | 00:26 |
|---|
| unop_ | ignotus, yes | 00:26 |
|---|
| ashaibani | and i hate 2 say it | 00:26 |
|---|
| michael__ | ahaibani: hmmm tv card could be the driver, firefox im not sure of as for the bars thats weird | 00:26 |
|---|
| ignotus | unop_: superb, thanks:) | 00:26 |
|---|
| ashaibani | well. i just said...it cant find my tv card driver | 00:27 |
|---|
| ashaibani | im actually gonna go back to windows | 00:27 |
|---|
| unop_ | linxeh, i think he could have meant "across all my graphical applications" .. but, i wouldnt make a bet on that | 00:27 |
|---|
| ashaibani | i thought going to ubuntu will really set it | 00:27 |
|---|
| ashaibani | and make it final on what OS im using | 00:27 |
|---|
| djjd | http://youtube.com/watch?v=xC5uEe5OzNQ Anyone know what effect that is when the window gets closed it is like the fire plugin but looks like it is multicolored? | 00:27 |
|---|
| michael__ | ahaibani: we;; nowyou begin a search for the driver thats supported and will work through linux | 00:27 |
|---|
| ashaibani | i did | 00:27 |
|---|
| ashaibani | i looked forever | 00:27 |
|---|
| ashaibani | to find the driver | 00:28 |
|---|
| adamb | Is there a way to manually point an mx record to somewhere, like I would do in a hosts file.. for testing email. Anyone know? | 00:28 |

|---|
| nadar | hi | 00:30 |

| nadar | is there also a german ubunru-chan on freenode? (need that for a friend) | 00:30 |
|---|
| ignotus | another question: ubuntu is very slow on my old system, the previous stable ubuntu was a lot faster, is it possible to quickly try out xfce? (by some apt-get install'ing) | 00:30 |
|---|
| unop_ | nadar, #ubuntu-de | 00:30 |
|---|
| nadar | unop_, thx :) | 00:31 |
|---|
| ashaibani | so no1 can solve my problems..not even fourms | 00:31 |
|---|
| adamb | unop_: so the answer is no? | 00:31 |
|---|
| fr0nk_ | how do i get the nice value of a app w/o using top? | 00:31 |
|---|
| BixBox | can anyone solve my problem? | 00:31 |
|---|
| fr0nk_ | i only need the nice value aka niceof `pidof $app` or something ;) | 00:31 |
|---|
| unop_ | ignotus, install the xubuntu-desktop package and xfce is pulled in, you can then select an XFCE session at the login window | 00:31 |
|---|
| ignotus | unop_: excellent, thank you very much | 00:32 |
|---|
| unop_ | adamb, yes, the answer is no. | 00:32 |
|---|
| mehmet | is there a site | 00:33 |

| tag | So, not paying attention to what I've purchased, I've recently realized my laptop is 64 bit. I'm wondering, is there a clean upgrade path from 32-bit ubuntu to 64-bit ubuntu? | 00:33 |
|---|
| ashaibani | alright. im leaving ubuntu | 00:33 |
|---|
| ashaibani | the community isnt helpfuol | 00:33 |
|---|
| Flannel | tag: Unfortunately not. | 00:33 |
|---|
| ashaibani | even windows xp community | 00:33 |
|---|
| ashaibani | is better then this | 00:33 |
|---|
| tag | Flannel: is there a usable upgrade path? | 00:33 |
|---|
| AVFC1 | bye then | 00:33 |
|---|
| ashaibani | atlaest they get things done | 00:33 |
|---|
| Flannel | tag: No, 32->64bit (and v.v.) is a reinstall | 00:34 |
|---|
| AVFC1 | leave and stop complaining if it's that bad | 00:34 |
|---|
| tag | Flannel: So, do you know of some reasonable 'install-over' instructions for a debian based distribution? | 00:34 |
|---|
| tag | shouldn't all the 32bit applications work on 64 bit linux, anyway? | 00:35 |
|---|
| Flannel | tag: You mean besides just popping in the CD? sure. | 00:35 |
|---|
| michael__ | w00t now that i fixed my audio problem i think this os blows windows out of the water ("in a world without walls who needs windows") <forget were i read that but its a good quote | 00:35 |
|---|
| tag | Flannel: Well, I mean, keeping all the stuff I have installed and so on... | 00:35 |
|---|
| Flannel | tag: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation has a bunch of stuff sans CD. Keeping all your stuff. do you have a separate home partition? | 00:35 |
|---|
| tag | Then I can do some kind of massive-meta-64bit apt based update | 00:35 |
|---|
| Flannel | !cloning | tag | 00:36 |
|---|
| ubotu | tag: 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 && apt-get dselect-upgrade » - See also !automate | 00:36 |
|---|
| AVFC1 | noob question, but would the latest ubuntu mean I am on gutsy? | 00:36 |
|---|
| level09 | does ubuntu installer usually get stuck on "unpacking Tar" message ? | 00:36 |
|---|
| Flannel | tag: that'll work regardless of the distro (since its just package names) | 00:36 |
|---|
| tag | Flannel: Yes, but I want to keep my apps too. | 00:36 |
|---|
| Flannel | AVFC1: Gutsy (7.10) is the latest, yes | 00:36 |
|---|
| djjd | AVF yes 7.10 | 00:36 |
|---|
| AVFC1 | thanks | 00:36 |
|---|
| icesword | AVFC1, yaaa,uname -a | 00:36 |
|---|
| tag | even the closed source ones | 00:36 |
|---|
| tag | like cisco vpn | 00:36 |
|---|
| tylerflick | Anyone had any luck with Totem and the Youtube plugin? | 00:36 |
|---|
| unop_ | fr0nk_, maybe this .. ps -o %n%p | grep -i $1 | awk '{print $1}' | 00:36 |
|---|
| unop_ | fr0nk_, $1 being the pid you want to grep | 00:36 |
|---|
| Flannel | tag: You'll have to reinstall them, and find 64bit versions for them. Or run them in a32bit chroot. | 00:37 |
|---|
| Flannel | !chroot | tag | 00:37 |
|---|
| michael__ | 8.10 intrepid ibex<not sure of that name> doesnt come out till october | 00:37 |
|---|
| ubotu | tag: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot use this to build 32 bit environments on a 64 bit box | 00:37 |
|---|
| dako3256 | how do I get my cups server to start? | 00:37 |
|---|
| Flannel | michael__: and 8.04 will be out at the end of this month | 00:37 |
|---|
| tylerflick | yeah but will it fix all the flash issues? | 00:38 |
|---|
| tag | Flannel: ugh | 00:38 |
|---|
| michael__ | flannel: do you think update is going to be allright or will i have to pull a fresh install? | 00:38 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | tylerflick: what flash issues? | 00:38 |
|---|
| Flannel | michael__: Upgrades are fine, yes. | 00:38 |
|---|
| tylerflick | Flash crashing FF on 64 bit | 00:38 |
|---|
| adamb | Is there a way I can display mtr results in semi real time, on browser with php? mtr or top, anything along those lines | 00:38 |
|---|
| michael__ | flannel: sweet cause i have and unsupported wireless card and its a bitch to get working | 00:38 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | oh, well, i don't do 64bit for many reasons, flash issues being one fo them.. not worth the hassle | 00:38 |
|---|
| hexoroid | anybody got named running localy ? | 00:39 |
|---|
| tylerflick | Yeah, not only flash, but Google Earth, Wine anything cool | 00:39 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | pretty much | 00:39 |
|---|
| tylerflick | It all seems to crash on 64 bit | 00:39 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | tylerflick: cuz most of it isn't 64bit native. | 00:39 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | if you'd ahve just installed 32bit, or researched 64bit a little better, you'd be fine | 00:40 |
|---|
| meshmesh | hi | 00:40 |
|---|
| tylerflick | IndyGunFreak: yeah but with 64 bit being the future of modern os's I would expect a little more support | 00:40 |
|---|
| ignotus | when I double click on a movie file in nautilus it starts the totem movie player. I would like to change that to MPlayer, how can I do that? | 00:40 |
|---|
| unocrash | meshmesh: Hi | 00:40 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | tylerflick: you keyed in on it, the *future*.. not the present | 00:40 |
|---|
| jaffarkelshac | ignotus, right click and choose other application | 00:40 |
|---|
| Bob_Sagot | I need help concerning a HDD that wont mount | 00:40 |
|---|
| ignotus | jaffarkelshac: checking | 00:41 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | there's still a lot of apps,etc that do not work in 64bit, as you've found out. | 00:41 |
|---|
| unocrash | !hi | meshmesh | 00:41 |
|---|
| ubotu | meshmesh: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 00:41 |
|---|
| tylerflick | IndyGunFreak: The future has to start sometime | 00:41 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | the "latest greatest", isn't always the most stable | 00:41 |
|---|
| michael__ | tylerflick: thats like saying windows is a dying os why not have more major companies have driver support for linux | 00:41 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | tylerflick: indeed, but its obviously not right now.. 3min on google woulda told you that | 00:41 |
|---|
| fr0nk_ | unop_: thanks but this doesn't work: ps -o %n%p outputs 2 lines: | 00:41 |
|---|
| tylerflick | Lol well I wish | 00:41 |
|---|
| fr0nk_ | unop_: NI PID | 00:41 |

|---|
| unop_ | fr0nk_, right, so you have two PIDs, what do you want me to do about that? :) | 00:42 |
|---|
| tylerflick | I have a dream. That one day little 32 bit apps and 64 bit apps will play together nicely | 00:42 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | level09: lmao, no its not normal | 00:42 |

|---|
| === KnifeHat_ is now known as KnifeHat |
| hexoroid | anybody goot with named and reverse ? | 00:43 |
|---|
| level09 | it says Unpacking Tar | 00:43 |
|---|
| jaffarkelshac | if it still opens with totem, right click properties, there should be open with tab, add or delete the appropriate one ignotus | 00:43 |
|---|
| adamb | Anyone know of a way to display realtime traceroute results to browser with popen? | 00:43 |
|---|
| unop_ | fr0nk_, maybe i am not understanding you right -- perhaps you need to explain more about that there | 00:43 |
|---|
| level09 | "installing the system" | 00:43 |
|---|
| unocrash | ok | 00:43 |
|---|
| tylerflick | I'm going with i386 8.04 on my new lappy | 00:43 |
|---|
| level09 | the base system | 00:43 |
|---|
| level09 | :D | 00:43 |
|---|
| AVFC1 | When you say mess with is michael_...? Impressing the correct buttons | 00:43 |
|---|
| fr0nk_ | unop_: ps -o %n%p | grep -i $1 | awk '{print $1}' greps in second instance for the name i want the nice-value of (vmware-vmx, for example). in the data it recieves from ps there is no application name grep could grep for ;-) | 00:43 |
|---|
| level09 | should I interrupt and retry ? | 00:44 |
|---|
| tylerflick | I'm on 7.10 | 00:44 |
|---|
| michael__ | avfc1: its not just pushing the correct ones its actually going in and changing the prefrences of each thing you press to make it work correctly =P | 00:44 |
|---|
| unocrash | level09: I haven't experience with server yet, though I hear it has no GUI. why do want server if it's running over XP? | 00:44 |
|---|
| unop_ | fr0nk_, and you didnt use a numeric PID there not a processes name .. | 00:44 |
|---|
| Bob_Sagot | Using 7.10, I cannot get Ubuntu to see a HDD I just plugged in again | 00:44 |
|---|
| icesword | unocrash, would you mind tell me what irc client you use | 00:44 |
|---|
| unop_ | fr0nk_, ps blah .. | grep -i $PID | awk .. | 00:44 |
|---|
| unocrash | icesword: Pidgin | 00:45 |

| icesword | yaaaa,i see | 00:45 |

| level09 | learning, I ordered a slicehost server and want to learn how to install hosting stuff on it | 00:45 |
|---|
| unocrash | icesword: Why? | 00:45 |
|---|
| fr0nk_ | unop_: passing the script a pid doesn't wrk either | 00:45 |
|---|
| unop_ | fr0nk_, if you want to grep for names -- then you need .. ps a -o %n%a | grep -i $PROCESSNAME | awk .. | 00:45 |
|---|
| jaffarkelshac | tylerflick, totem youtube plugin? | 00:45 |
|---|
| fr0nk_ | unop_: frank@Lysistrata {~} $ niceof `pidof vmware-vmx` | 00:45 |

| unocrash | icesword: It's Pidgin. Why do you need to know? | 00:46 |

| icesword | unocrash, wat? | 00:47 |
|---|
| unop_ | phs5556, http://packages.ubuntu.com/ | 00:47 |

| tylerflick | jaffarkelshac: I have yet to get it to work though | 00:47 |

| phs5556 | thanks | 00:47 |
|---|
| unocrash | jay: is it KDE4? | 00:47 |
|---|
| unocrash | icesword: wat do u mean? | 00:47 |
|---|
| michael__ | unocrash: yes it is | 00:47 |
|---|
| jay | Unocrash: I believe so. | 00:47 |
|---|
| michael__ | unocrash, jay: i ran that for a while it was a real difficult time | 00:48 |
|---|
| icesword | unocrash, nothing,i thought why many people use purple as their real name,now ii knew | 00:48 |
|---|
| unocrash | jay: Visit kubuntu channel | 00:48 |
|---|
| jaffarkelshac | i never heard of it, i thought it was a plugin to watch you tube. tylerflick | 00:48 |

| shinichizio | Hey #ubuntu. I'm trying to figure out how to run an app that's in the 'Games' folder (under the Applications dropdown) through the terminal instead. How do I figure this out? | 00:48 |
|---|
| tylerflick | it is a pluggin to watch youtube, but it also has a built in browser for it. plus it doesn't crash like flash does. jaffarkelshac | 00:48 |
|---|
| michael__ | mine looks grey to me but im using xchat | 00:48 |
|---|
| icesword | just right click your name | 00:48 |
|---|
| ignotus | jaffarkelshac: thank, it works!:) | 00:48 |
|---|
| ignotus | thank you* | 00:49 |
|---|
| fr0nk_ | unop_: ps a -0 %n%p doesn't give me all processes | 00:49 |
|---|
| pgn | sorry but I don't found where it's possible to add virtual desktops, any help ? | 00:49 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | tylerflick: why don't you just install 32bit? | 00:49 |
|---|
| jaffarkelshac | tylerflick, so thats why my firefox keeps crashing on youtube | 00:49 |
|---|
| michael__ | pgn: go to the bottom right corner right click | 00:49 |
|---|
| jaffarkelshac | ignotus, no problem | 00:49 |
|---|
| unop_ | fr0nk_, i dunno how you got -0 there? it's -o not -0 | 00:49 |
|---|
| Starnestommy | pgn: right click on the desktop switcher, select "preferences"? | 00:49 |
|---|
| tylerflick | IndyGunFreak. because It would mean a clean install and I'd figure I would just tuff it out through the patches | 00:50 |
|---|
| michael__ | pgn: prefrences number of workspaces = 4 | 00:50 |
|---|
| jaffarkelshac | ignotus, peverell? | 00:50 |
|---|
| fr0nk_ | unop_: oh sorry, mistyped it in irrsi but on the bash i used -o ;) | 00:50 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | well, then you really have nothing to complain about | 00:50 |
|---|
| pgn | I just can choose raw and columns | 00:50 |
|---|
| tylerflick | jaffarkelshac: correct, it's the adobe flash at work | 00:50 |
|---|
| michael__ | pgn: mak sure all the workspaces are on the same row | 00:50 |
|---|
| tylerflick | IndyGuyFreak: I've just made to much progress to throw it all away, besides the 32bit 8.04 is going on my new dell lappy | 00:51 |
|---|
| tylerflick | afk | 00:51 |
|---|
| alan_m | 20 days to go tylerflick :) | 00:51 |
|---|
| unop_ | fr0nk_, well, there's obviously something missing then -- anyway, use some option of ps (man ps) to include nice outputs too, then grep for what you want | 00:51 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | tylerflick: i don't know i guess i'm a backup freak, i know how all my programs settings are, etc. | 00:52 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | so i can reinstall in no time | 00:52 |
|---|
| icesword | unop_, i suppose it is 23:52,there,right | 00:52 |
|---|
| shinichizio | So, I seem to have figured this out myself in the time it took me to Google the related subjects. I'll just scoot out. | 00:52 |
|---|
| unop_ | icesword, sorry? | 00:52 |
|---|
| unop_ | icesword, did you mean time | 00:52 |
|---|
| icesword | unop_, yaaaaa | 00:52 |

|---|
| IndyGunFreak | if you say so | 00:53 |
|---|
| tylerflick | alan_m. i'm definatly counting down | 00:53 |
|---|
| alan_m | tylerflick, how long have you been using it? | 00:54 |
|---|
| unop_ | fr0nk_, have a look at this, it has to have what you want in it... ps ax -o %n%p%a | 00:54 |

| icesword | alan_m, how do you know | 00:54 |
|---|
| JPSman | about how long does "sudo make modules" take? | 00:54 |
|---|
| tylerflick | JPSman:not long | 00:54 |
|---|
| JPSman | tylerflick: 30 mins? | 00:54 |
|---|
| icesword | alan_m, http://geotool.servehttp.com/ | 00:54 |
|---|
| tylerflick | JPSman: depends on the size | 00:55 |
|---|
| alan_m | icesword, i just took what you gave me and converted it to standard civilian format heh | 00:55 |
|---|
| JPSman | tylerflick: by any chance does ubuntu restart once it's done? | 00:55 |
|---|
| darknessfall | ... | 00:55 |
|---|
| fr0nk_ | unop_: i got it! :-) | 00:56 |
|---|
| tylerflick | JPSman: not to my knowledge | 00:56 |
|---|
| unop_ | fr0nk_, right, what was it? | 00:56 |
|---|
| fr0nk_ | unop_: if you're interested: frank@Lysistrata {~} $ ps -eo %n%p | grep `pidof vmware-vmx` | 00:56 |

| fr0nk_ | -10 1211 | 00:56 |

| alan_m | Shubbar, have you changed anything lately as far as settings go? | 00:56 |
|---|
| croSmiley | Is there a way to automaticly close programs that are not being used for some time? | 00:56 |

| aCiD2 | Hi, I'm having a bit of an odd problem during setup. It comes up with the boot menu, but when I choose begin setup (even with safe graphics mode) my monitor loses input... | 00:57 |
|---|
| unop_ | fr0nk_, you must be careful tho -- `pidof vmware-vmx` can be any number that your ps command's output can contain | 00:57 |
|---|
| aCiD2 | any ideas? My graphics card is a GeForce 8800 GTS 512 | 00:57 |

| Shubbar | alan_m, how can i troubleshoot abrupt shutdowns? | 00:58 |
|---|
| alan_m | Shubbar, you can check log files by going to system->administration-System log | 00:58 |
|---|
| macd | aCiD2, download and try the alternate install CD, this should allow you to install, then configure your gfx card | 00:58 |
|---|
| icesword | alan_m, on that page,select map session,then post your ip,see if it give you the right place you live,it is very clear ,even which street | 00:58 |
|---|
| Jimbo | Is it usual to have to manually mount my windows partitions when using the liveCD? | 00:58 |

| aCiD2 | Ok | 00:58 |
|---|
| darknessfall | hello | 00:59 |

| Jimbo | I'm just trying to work out if this is an issue I should report or something that is pretty normal. I tried the Xubuntu beta and that was giving me problems with mounting as well so... | 01:01 |
|---|
| Shubbar | alan_m, i will check the logs everytime it restarts | 01:02 |
|---|
| Alan | Argh, why do people have the same name as me? And why isn't my IRC client intelligent? | 01:02 |
|---|
| alan_m | icesword, well, its close, it gave me my location which is close enough, but....i dont live on that exact street it pointed out :) | 01:02 |

| alan_m | Alan, i wondered the same thing when i went to register this name to nickserv :) | 01:02 |

| alan_m | icesword, so its not totally acurate, close for me. | 01:04 |
|---|
| Alan | alan_m, :P I only got it because i noticed it hadn't been used in 2 years, and its so much hassle having to ghost people all the time :P | 01:04 |
|---|
| icesword | if it is accurate,just imagine what might happen | 01:04 |
|---|
| alan_m | Alan, yeah, i saw you grabbed it not long after i came to this network i said dangit...imma bop this guy when i meet em...:) | 01:04 |

| sinologic | i'm not sure, but it's possible that the theme you've choiced made the acqua effect | 01:15 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | corry, perhaps reinstall, uninstall with the purge option. | 01:15 |

|---|
| Dr_willis | corry, or you could manually blacklist the modules in question, and disable any services you think ar starting up for it | 01:16 |
|---|
| AVFC1 | its not an aqua effect, that was just an example, that a normal blue looks aqua-ish | 01:16 |

|---|
| xFlipx | it won't if you don't type it in a terminal | 01:35 |
|---|
| level09 | xFlipx: no, on a VirtualBox | 01:35 |

|---|
| AVFC1 | this is the first time i've tried it | 01:36 |
|---|
| xFlipx | why did you install server? I believe that is command line only at first | 01:37 |
|---|
| keithclark | avfc1, congratulations | 01:37 |

| xFlipx | if you want a desktop you'll need to install one | 01:37 |

| ecrane_ | can someone please send me a /msg? Testing out a new irc client... | 01:37 |

| IndyGunFreak | AVFC1: what graphics chipset are you using? | 01:37 |
|---|
| jaffarkelshac | AVFC1, you have never used linux based os before? | 01:37 |
|---|
| level09 | guys, all I need is to setup my hosting environment on Slicehost, if it is easy , I'll just go and order that server now :D | 01:37 |
|---|
| AVFC1 | nope | 01:37 |
|---|
| AVFC1 | and how do i find out what chipset im using? I'm new to this stuff... | 01:38 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | well, at least he started out with the easiest one. | 01:38 |
|---|
| xFlipx | level09: are you familiar with terminals? | 01:38 |
|---|
| xFlipx | hey IndyGunFreak | 01:38 |
|---|
| Lifeisfunny | AVFC1, I see, check the System/Appearance/VisualEffects tab and make sure Custom is selected | 01:38 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | AVFC1: open a terminal, Accessories/Terminal.. and type "lspci" no quotes | 01:38 |
|---|
| level09 | a little bit | 01:38 |
|---|
| xFlipx | can you open one? | 01:38 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | xFlipx: hey | 01:38 |
|---|
| xFlipx | you are typing LS into one so you have one open, nvm | 01:38 |
|---|
| level09 | I know the basic file functions, shell scripts, editors, some mysql commands | 01:38 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | Lifeisfunny: he likely has either ATI or Intel, which doesn't allow effects by default. | 01:38 |
|---|
| Josellis | hello | 01:39 |
|---|
| AVFC1 | Lifeisfunny: its tellin me they cant be enabled... | 01:39 |
|---|
| AVFC1 | i have ATI | 01:39 |
|---|
| xFlipx | well, you confused dir with ls so I'm not sure how much you really know :P | 01:39 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | AVFC1: because someone didn't know what they were talking about, i coudl have told you it would say that. | 01:39 |
|---|
| Lifeisfunny | ahh, is it installed? | 01:39 |
|---|
| level09 | xFlipx: I didn't , I was just wondering why one of them not working | 01:39 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | xFlipx, :) dont forget 'alias cd..='cd ..' | 01:39 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | look and see what exact device you have installed | 01:39 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | not working vs. not existing. :) | 01:39 |
|---|
| xFlipx | however, as mentioned if you typed $SHELL into your term and nothing came back you're probably hosed because your shell will most likely not support apt-get. | 01:40 |
|---|
| level09 | not working because not existing :D | 01:40 |
|---|
| AVFC1 | where can i look for that? | 01:40 |
|---|
| b4l74z4r | no matter what i do i can't seem to get agreable fonts in firefox | 01:40 |

|---|
| IndyGunFreak | and see how it identifies your graphics device, do not paste the whole thing here. | 01:40 |
|---|
| unocrash | XGL vs. Compiz/Beryl | 01:40 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | kindofabuzz, yes. the service name is gdm, or kdm if using kde. | 01:40 |

| xFlipx | for the bootable deal - you can trash it | 02:10 |
|---|
| Frogger626 | Ok, here goes... Guess I don't have to worry about a BSOD... | 02:11 |
|---|
| chris0 | loser: depends on the program.... | 02:11 |
|---|
| c0Ld | Would it be possible to allow Ubuntu to install to all of my free space and then re-size its partition again after installation to allow more space for my other partitions again? | 02:11 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Cruzers have those u3 things? I made it a point to NOT buy anything that has that u3 stuff | 02:11 |
|---|
| ramcosca | I get GSOD on my Mac, kernel panics. Tux gets em too right? | 02:11 |
|---|
| xFlipx | c0Ld: are you trying to dual boot? | 02:11 |
|---|
| shArk | nikrud: i must have forgot because the headache or something :D | 02:11 |
|---|
| nikrud | c0Ld look for the manual partitioning, you can set it up as you like | 02:11 |
|---|
| Frogger626 | Dr_willis, yes, yes it does have U3 | 02:11 |
|---|
| xFlipx | ramcosca: no | 02:11 |
|---|
| loser | well yeah i just installed it, it seems to run slow should i get an updated version as aposed to the package provided with ubuntu | 02:11 |
|---|
| Pelo | c0Ld, yes it is , but you 'll need to use the live cd to resize after wards | 02:12 |
|---|
| c0Ld | xFlipx: Yes, but I don't need nor want Ubuntu to use all of my freed space. | 02:12 |
|---|
| chris0 | Dr_willis: yeah, but I've got one. Just delete U3 and it's nice | 02:12 |
|---|
| ramcosca | Another question. | 02:12 |
|---|
| E-werd | Cackette: your best bet is either Crossover Office (there is a trial) or attempting to do so with wine | 02:12 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Frogger626, good luck. :) that device will show up as 2 devices in the fdisk -l output. | 02:12 |
|---|
| E-werd | wow, that is later than I thought | 02:12 |
|---|
| c0Ld | Pelo: Does the liveCD have another partitioner on it somewhere? I've honestly never even looked. | 02:12 |
|---|
| xFlipx | c0Ld: right, on all of my installs I've been able to use specific space | 02:12 |
|---|
| E-werd | woops :-[ | 02:12 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | chris0, you did? heh - i wasent able to do that to my friends u3 disk.. | 02:12 |
|---|
| Pelo | c0Ld, in the admin menu | 02:12 |
|---|
| xFlipx | partition manager starts in live and install, right? | 02:13 |
|---|
| chris0 | Dr_willis: look around on portableapps.com. they tell you how to do it. | 02:13 |
|---|
| xFlipx | I believe it does | 02:13 |
|---|
| nikrud | Frogger626 I found a utility I could run in windows to remove the u3 stuff, get the whole stick back. | 02:13 |
|---|
| === Cosmosan is now known as Cosmo-san |
| c0Ld | xFlipx: It's only allowing me to install to ALL of my freed space unless I manually partition it all, so I'm figuring it'll probably end up easier to just let it do its thing and re-size it again when it's done. | 02:13 |
|---|
| Pelo | xFlipx, you can access gpartd from the admin menu on hte live cd , and from the installer selecting manual partitionning | 02:13 |

| Dr_willis | c0Ld, fire up gparted , resize existingpartitions leaving a unallocated space at the end of thehard drive. tell installer to use that unallocated space | 02:17 |
|---|
| xFlipx | c0Ld: I've never used gparted either so I'm afraid I cannot help with that, but I have suggestions if you'd like them | 02:17 |

| nikrud | IndyGunFreak you got 20 in?!! | 02:17 |

| Frogger626 | Is there a way to safe-remove a portable drive? | 02:17 |

| Frogger626 | or does it do it automatically? | 02:17 |

| Dr_willis | Frogger626, unmount it. | 02:17 |

| spydon | right click on it Frogger626 | 02:17 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | nikro: lmao, hardly.. i worked 18hrs 1 day..lol | 02:17 |
|---|
| nikrud | Frogger626 if you do it with umount, it's safe. Or, right click it on the desktop and select eject | 02:17 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | Pelo: no, natives were restless | 02:17 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Frogger626, that is what the 'safely remove' stuff does. | 02:17 |
|---|
| Pelo | c0Ld, just setp back to the desktop , and select the gnome partiton editor from the system > admin menu and make your partition there | 02:17 |
|---|
| loser | histo: than how would you describe it, do you have any wine experience through ubuntu that could help me out | 02:18 |

| baudelaire | Hey Guys! I have a quick question. I'm pretty new to Ubuntu. Do you guys have any productivity tips that you think would help me? I already use Gnome-Do. You guys have any other ideas? :-) :-P | 02:20 |
|---|
| tarkus | do you guys think that linux will eventually be a suitable, efficient desktop platform? as well as good for multimedia and design. (pretty much what people use a mac for) | 02:20 |
|---|
| nikrud | baudelaire learn the names of the apps you use, and start them with alt-fw | 02:20 |
|---|
| tarkus | i mean i use linux for my coding and development. but thats about it | 02:20 |
|---|
| nikrud | baudelaire erm, alt-f2 that is | 02:21 |
|---|
| c0Ld | Pelo: It won't let me add a new partition, the only related option to that is to resize the current one. | 02:21 |
|---|
| icesword | spydon is gone | 02:21 |
|---|
| loser | tarkus: it allready is it comes on laptops preloaded | 02:21 |
|---|
| tarkus | i would also like it to be a good esktop app, instead of using win/mac for this type of stuff | 02:21 |
|---|
| Pelo | c0Ld, are you sure you ahve free space ? | 02:21 |
|---|
| xFlipx | tarkus: it is :) | 02:21 |
|---|
| tarkus | loser, yeah, i just rdered a lenovo T61 with Novell SLED 10 | 02:21 |
|---|
| loser | tarkus: you can get ubuntu throught quite a few companys preloaded | 02:21 |
|---|
| c0Ld | Pelo: Yes, I have about 60 gigs free. | 02:21 |
|---|
| Josellis | pelo, I'm back | 02:21 |
|---|
| chris0 | tarkus: t61, baby!!! | 02:21 |
|---|
| Josellis | wait on grub | 02:21 |
|---|
| Pelo | c0Ld, free space is unpartition space , not just space that is unsused in your hdd | 02:21 |
|---|
| loser | tarkus: id call it stable its very very versatille | 02:21 |
|---|
| tarkus | loser, yea i know. that doesnt justify it being a better desktop plaform than OSX | 02:21 |
|---|
| nikrud | c0Ld is that free space on the ntfs partition, or free space outside the ntfs partition? | 02:21 |
|---|
| baudelaire | Thanks, nikrud | 02:22 |
|---|
| Pelo | c0Ld, it should state unallocated space | 02:22 |
|---|
| c0Ld | it's inside of the ntfs partition still | 02:22 |
|---|
| tarkus | chris0, are you working with one now? | 02:22 |
|---|
| chris0 | tarkus: yep | 02:22 |
|---|
| xFlipx | tarkus: OSX is based on unix. | 02:22 |
|---|
| tarkus | chris0, how is it? is the battery life really that bad? | 02:22 |
|---|
| nikrud | c0Ld then you need to resize the ntfs first. If you are using vista, use the disk management tool in vista to do that | 02:22 |
|---|
| Pelo | c0Ld, you need to resize the ntfs partiton then , unless you are getting rid of windows , then you can just remove it all together | 02:22 |
|---|
| shachaf | I've read about other people having this problem, but not about any solution: Using Xinerama on a Radeon 9600 with the fglrx driver, the mouse cursor on the primary screen is fine, but on the secondary screen, it doesn't change -- it just stays in the same shape it was on the primary screen. | 02:22 |
|---|
| loser | tarkus: why not osx is codecd from the same thing linux is its from a unix base isnt it ?? | 02:22 |
|---|
| tarkus | xFlipx, yea, since leopard its a fully unix OS. | 02:22 |
|---|
| chris0 | tarkus: battery life's not great. new, it got just under 2 hours. now (6 months later) it's down to about an hour 45 minutes | 02:23 |
|---|
| tarkus | loser, i know this. but from a software selection point. you get a wider array of powerfull applications | 02:23 |
|---|
| shachaf | Has someone else here had a problem like this? | 02:23 |
|---|
| loser | tarkus: so its all about knowing how to use the os to your advantage | 02:23 |
|---|
| xFlipx | tarkus: and most every app OSx offers was available on linux long before OSX .... for free I might add | 02:23 |
|---|
| tarkus | chris0, what size battery? | 02:23 |
|---|
| bebin | azureus dht is firewalled distributed database's udp port maping problem how to fix it please help | 02:23 |
|---|
| tarkus | chris0, thats dissapointing. | 02:23 |
|---|
| loser | tarkus: ehh yeah you got me there its because all the software out is freeware we just have to wait until a big big software companie decides to get involved and try to grab the market | 02:24 |
|---|
| chris0 | tarkus: rumor has it, if you get the right kind of t61, you can put a t60 battery in it and get 8 hours of battery life. mine's the wrong kind. my battery is the biggest one (7-cell?---don't remember) | 02:24 |
|---|
| nikrud | bebin probably your router, you'll need to use your router manual | 02:24 |
|---|
| xen_ | can someone please take a look at this, everything is explained in the post: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=4650305&postcount=1 | 02:24 |
|---|
| tarkus | chris0, omfg. thats insane.. | 02:24 |
|---|
| chris0 | yeah | 02:24 |
|---|
| nikrud | bebin you can ensure that it's not ubuntu by typing sudo iptables -F , clears any possible firewall rules on the computer | 02:24 |
|---|
| tarkus | chris0, your using the 7-cell and you're getting < 2 hours | 02:25 |
|---|
| Frogger626 | ARGH! Linux-ache! | 02:25 |
|---|
| * tarkus goes to buy a macbook instead | 02:25 |
| tarkus | lol | 02:25 |
|---|
| Frogger626 | Dr_willis, if you're there, I am stuck | 02:25 |
|---|
| Frogger626 | ... or not | 02:25 |
|---|
| chris0 | tarkus: I have a friend who has a t60 and a t61 and he swapped the batteries and gets 8 hours. I tried it in mine but his battery doesn't fit. I have the big battery, I think it's the 7-cell, but I dont remember | 02:25 |
|---|
| nikrud | xen_ a couple questions: are you using xserver-xgl , and compiz? | 02:26 |
|---|
| level09 | how do I switch my user from within the terminal window ? | 02:26 |
|---|
| bebin | nikurud: can you say how to enable it again | 02:26 |
|---|
| tarkus | chris0, well looks like i am completely screwed then. i got the 4-cell (i hate extended batteries that arent flush with the chassis) | 02:26 |
|---|
| chris0 | level09: su - <username> | 02:26 |
|---|
| level09 | thanks :) | 02:26 |
|---|
| nikrud | bebin by default there is no firewall. Unless you intentionally set one up with firestarter or some other tool | 02:26 |
|---|
| Frogger626 | Well guys, here goes. Be back in a few | 02:26 |
|---|
| chris0 | tarkus: yes, but you can also get an ultrabay battery. still saving up for that one tho... | 02:26 |
|---|
| speeddemon8803 | nickrud, but there is iptables right? | 02:27 |
|---|
| loser | hmm im doing things the way wine says to but they dont work the way its suppose to | 02:27 |
|---|
| nikrud | speeddemon8803 yes, that's a tool to set the firewall rules. Unless you actually use iptables, there are no firewall rules | 02:27 |
|---|
| tarkus | i would love to use a full opensource toolset for both work, and casual use. | 02:27 |
|---|
| rhineheart_m | quick question: how to prove why an email won't arrive to local mailbox well in fact I could send and receive mails if doing it locally? I am using postfix and courier imap with squirrelmail. thanks! | 02:28 |
|---|
| * speeddemon8803 was just thinking of the statement no firewall because i ran into a network security testing site and it didnt get past anything is all. | 02:28 |
| tarkus | just for piece of mind and the flexibility. | 02:28 |
|---|
| loser | is there a better program out there than wine | 02:28 |
|---|
| nikrud | speeddemon8803 sudo netstat -pltn , shows what is listening to what. If nothing is listening to the net, of course it'll pass ;) | 02:29 |

| xen_ | nikrud no not using compiz, but i do have the xserver-xgl installed | 02:32 |

| karllenz | anyone commande to install the gnome desktop will using kde? | 02:32 |
|---|
| rignes | Starnestommy: Thanks. | 02:32 |
|---|
| === reconnect is now known as recon |
| nikrud | xen_ that's the :1.0 server you see with just fglrxinfo, it runs above the :0.0 server. You could try uninstalling xserver-xorg and checking fglrxinfo for yourself. | 02:33 |
|---|
| xen_ | nikrud ah ok so i just do sudo apt-get purge xserver-xorg, then try typing in fglrxinfo into terminal like that? | 02:33 |
|---|
| nikrud | karllenz sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 02:33 |
|---|
| nikrud | xen_ you'll have to log out and back in | 02:33 |

|---|
| n3urogod | loser, what did you get working under wine? | 02:37 |
|---|
| xFlipx | JPSman: does it count if I work with some blackhats? :P | 02:37 |

|---|
| level09 | why do we add dots infront of some directories ? like .ssh for example ? | 02:43 |
|---|
| troxor | sarah___: would you mind a screenshot link in PM ? | 02:43 |
|---|
| Starnestommy | level09: to make them hidden | 02:43 |
|---|
| BoostedSS | level09 that makes it hiddent | 02:43 |

| BoostedSS | lol | 02:43 |
|---|
| nikrud | level09 directories with dots hare hidden from listings | 02:43 |
|---|
| level09 | thanks | 02:43 |

| level09 | rm -a removes them ? | 02:43 |
|---|
| jengelh | -.- | 02:43 |
|---|

| moregreen | i am having a problem with my ubuntu/kubuntu . every time i open synaptic, it seems like it is updating the sources, then immedietely closes. | 02:45 |
|---|
| moregreen | im on gutsy | 02:45 |
|---|
| Shiiii | hey all | 02:45 |
|---|
| moregreen | it may have happened when i tried to reinstall firefox from the terminal | 02:46 |
|---|
| poseidon | Is there a way to boot ubuntu up in windows from a flash drive? | 02:46 |
|---|
| troxor | moregreen: run synaptic from a terminal, and see what kind of output it gives | 02:46 |
|---|
| moregreen | it runs fine in terminal | 02:46 |
|---|
| moregreen | lemme try again though | 02:46 |

|---|
| nikrud | Zelta what's the firefox problem, anyway? | 02:47 |
|---|
| BoostedSS | nikrud, so what command would I issue to update all of the packages on my system... like yum update all type command | 02:47 |
|---|
| icesword | poseidon, how do you mean | 02:47 |
|---|
| troxor | loser: `mount`, `df`, or `cat /proc/mounts` | 02:47 |
|---|
| poseidon | nm, I just found something | 02:47 |
|---|
| moregreen | hey troxor... i ran sudo synaptic... does the same thing. | 02:47 |
|---|
| Stroganoff | http://pastebin.ca/raw/971919 this code creates this checklist: http://www.abload.de/img/dialog-conditionobn.png --- why? | 02:47 |
|---|
| nikrud | BoostedSS that's sudo apt-get update , system->admin->synaptic will reflect that change | 02:47 |

| robot682 | Hello. I am a user trying to switch over from windows and I am having a heck of a time getting my xorg.conf right. | 02:47 |

|---|
| Zelta | nikrud: Flash videos appear, but occasionally (not all the time), when I try to load it, Firefox goes unresponsive and prompts for a Force Quit | 02:47 |
|---|
| nikrud | Zelta does that to me too. | 02:47 |
|---|
| troxor | moregreen: does it give an error message in the terminal window? | 02:48 |

|---|
| IndyGunFreak | Frogger626: are you trying to install, or did you install it to the thumb drive | 02:48 |
|---|
| troxor | moregreen: bummer, try this `aptitude update && aptitude upgrade` . maybe the file got corrupted | 02:49 |

| moregreen | faster than cd though, right? | 02:50 |

| IndyGunFreak | silly, complete waste fo time | 02:50 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | moregreen: honestly, i doubt it | 02:50 |
|---|
| Pelo | Frogger626, grub , the boot menu , is in two parts, one part on the boot device at the timeof hte install and part 2 on the ubuntu partiton | 02:50 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | i got my y Thumbfdrive set to boot as if it was a live cd. its much faster then a live-cd | 02:50 |
|---|
| moregreen | usb2.0 ? | 02:50 |
|---|
| Zelta | depends on the external hard drive spindle speed | 02:50 |
|---|
| BoostedSS | nikrud, thank you. that synaptic was what I was looking for. I also cannot install anything from the add/remove programs cause it says the list is not updated does that make sense? | 02:50 |
|---|
| emma | I have an external drive and it is very slow. I would not recommend installing Ubuntu on it. It's good for using as storage for data. | 02:50 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | Dr_willis: yeah, but not running an install from the thumb drive | 02:50 |
|---|
| Frogger626 | IGF, I don't have an extra HD lying around (that I can use), and this seems like a reasonable solution | 02:50 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | Frogger626: so partition the one you have. | 02:50 |
|---|
| Pelo | Frogger626, this is error 21 21 : Selected disk does not exist | 02:51 |
|---|
| Pelo | This error is returned if the device part of a device- or full file name refers to a disk or BIOS device that is not present or not recognized by the BIOS in the system. | 02:51 |
|---|
| nikrud | BoostedSS yes, ubuntu has done some stuff to invalidate a repository unless it has recently been updated | 02:51 |
|---|
| Frogger626 | Won't that wipe the drive I partition? | 02:51 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | IndyGunFreak, theres 2 ways to 'install' to a thumbdrive :) live-cd clone, and full install..ive never managed to make a full install work.. heh | 02:51 |
|---|
| Frogger626 | If I can do a live-CD clone that I can save files to, I'm good. | 02:51 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | Dr_willis: lol.. the live CD i think would be fine.. no different, maybe even a tad faster, than running a live CD | 02:51 |
|---|
| Frogger626 | I just want flash and WINE, and I'm good. | 02:51 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | with the 'full' install to a usb device. the initrd and other kernel issues can happen. because the name/device name of the usb device can change - i recall. | 02:51 |
|---|
| nikrud | Dr_willis I guess you better go back to working on wilix then ;) | 02:52 |
|---|
| BoostedSS | nikrud; lol How do I update it? This is a fresh install of gutsy on a brand new laptop | 02:52 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | Frogger626: if you partition the drive properly, no, it won't wipe the drive, have you read any tutorials? | 02:52 |
|---|
| Frogger626 | ...No | 02:52 |
|---|
| nikrud | BoostedSS the apt-get upgrade will do it, that refreshes the repositories | 02:52 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | I have a Slax-Thumbdrive, and a gOS thumbdrive right now. :) | 02:52 |
|---|
| moregreen | I used su, then sudo aptitude safe-upgrade and i think its going to work... (crosses fingers) | 02:52 |

| nikrud | robot682 for ati, I have a suggestion: system->admin->restricted driver , enable ati restricted. reboot. log in, run fglrxinfo and make sure it's using ati 8.37.6 driver. install xserver-xgl compizconfig-settings-manager , then log out and back in. Go to system->prefs->appearance effects tab | 02:57 |

|---|
| IndyGunFreak | no, rico is having a display issue.. far as i can tell. | 02:57 |
|---|
| nikrud | robot682 if you have been messing with the xorg already, do sudo dpkg-reconfigure -pcritical xserver-xorg first | 02:57 |
|---|
| Pelo | Rico, I don't think you add extra resolutions for ati drives using xorg.conf, check in the forum for ati resolution, there is a way to do it , I just don' tknow what it is | 02:58 |

| Frogger626 | IndyGunFreak: The non-windows has a whole lot of... Well, not bootables, anyway. | 02:59 |
|---|
| Starnestommy | moregreen: try sudo aptitude reinstall firefox | 02:59 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | moregreen, why are you reinstalling firefox? | 02:59 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | moregreen, that will not reset the users settings - if thats the problem. | 02:59 |
|---|
| moregreen | it isnt opening | 02:59 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | moregreen, You are thinking in windows terms.. | 03:00 |
|---|
| moregreen | yeah | 03:00 |

| Dr_willis | moregreen, open a terminal, run firefox, look for error messages | 03:00 |

|---|
| IndyGunFreak | Frogger626: so what does the other partition have on it? | 03:00 |
|---|
| robot682 | Thanks nikrud. I will try those two things. Though, every time I enable the restricted I get a black screen and the last time changing the resolution didn't help. I will give it one more go, | 03:01 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | moregreen, that rarely if EVER works with linux | 03:01 |
|---|
| moregreen | awesome | 03:01 |
|---|
| xFlipx | btw I just had the best cod4 game ever if anybody wants to pat me on the back feel free | 03:01 |
|---|
| Frogger626 | IndyGunFreak: The first partition has windows. The second is just storage, and I can back up that up to my 350gb superdrive. | 03:01 |
|---|
| keithclark | xflix pat.... | 03:01 |
|---|
| moregreen | hey i have mounted my usb midi keyboard before , but now its not recognizing it except for lspci. how do i tell JACK to know where it is? | 03:01 |

| troxor | keithclark: System->Administration->Users and Groups | 03:02 |
|---|
| Frogger626 | Hence the "IDEA!". | 03:02 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | Frogger626: thats what i would do.. back up the "spare" partition.., and install Ubuntu there. | 03:02 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | and you don't have to take up the whole thing | 03:02 |
|---|
| keithclark | troxor, I tried....it does not allow me to recreate the user. | 03:02 |
|---|
| Frogger626 | Sure that the first partition is safe? | 03:02 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | Frogger626: well, you have the capability to back up 350gigs, i would do a backup of important stuff, but as long as you're not completely nutty during partitioning, i would say you'll probably be fine | 03:03 |
|---|
| ader10 | Is there any way to burn a folder of flac tracks with a cue sheet? | 03:03 |
|---|
| troxor | keithclark: you can do it the hard way, 'userdel username`, then `mv /home/username /home/username.old` | 03:03 |
|---|
| Frogger626 | I don't have anything interesting in C: but it's Windows that scares me | 03:03 |

|---|
| impulze | troxor: mv /home/username{,.old} | 03:04 |

| IndyGunFreak | Frogger626: sudo is how you do root commands.. basically | 03:04 |
|---|
| xFlipx | sorry for spam | 03:04 |
|---|
| Starnestommy | !sudo | 03:04 |

| Dr_willis | troxor, so hows this sifferent from just converting/burning each track to a cd like i would for my ,mp3's ? | 03:11 |
|---|
| Pelo | c0Ld, from the installer , you can just select to install the the unallocated space , assuming you didn'T make a partion in the free space | 03:11 |
|---|
| Frogger626 | In that case, the first partition, C:, has windows. D:, the second partition, has just data. I want to install Ubuntu there. | 03:11 |

| Pelo | tnnc, depends on how you start the script, if you run it at boot it shoudl recognise the users permissions and not ask for the psword, if you run the script manualy you will always need to give it the pswrd | 03:17 |

| robbiet480 | Hey. I just installed windows and had a previous install of Feisty Fawn (7.10). When I was installing XP it had me create a "setup" partition. The install is now done and I wish to reclaim that space. It is the C: drive BUT no windows files or any files at all are on it. I know this is Ubuntu support but I was wondering if anyone would be nice enough to tell me if it is OK to remove the "setup" partition to get that space back.... | 03:47 |
|---|
| sco50000 | how? | 03:47 |
|---|
| Scunizi | pen, yea.. wait for Hardy to be released with FF3.0 | 03:47 |

|---|
| robbiet480 | xFlipx I know i know. I just need it for the odd app that doesnt run on Wine | 03:50 |
|---|
| RockerMONO | CodeBlock, not really, telnet has no useful password protection, considering ti's plain text | 03:50 |
|---|
| Scunizi | robbiet480, :) and that's with "almost" all the updates. | 03:50 |
|---|
| chalex | prakriti: what about something like "mdadm --query --detail /dev/md0" | 03:50 |
|---|
| RockerMONO | iuri, well you ask about the server in the os/distro the server uses, so in this case ask ##windows how to install a sshd and use normal ssh | 03:50 |
|---|
| iuri | CodeBlock: it is a ubuntu, since iam on my ubuntu in attempts to ssh into my windows :) | 03:50 |

|---|
| chalex | also, did you have some data on md0, or are you free to start over? | 03:51 |

| xFlipx | then install windows on the other half | 03:52 |

| Scunizi | deniz__, Here's one using Imagemagik http://sourceforge.net/projects/bbips/.. there were over 100 pages of pdf stuff on sourceforge.. | 04:06 |

| deniz__ | Scunizi, i have imagemagick and its not gui and no1 wants to help me use it | 04:06 |

| chalex | prakriti: but it would probably be worth to a) make backups b) figure out why they were marked as failed and c) run fsck to check for corruption | 04:06 |

|---|
| Scunizi | deniz__, I know it does a lot and not very intuitive. however the link looks like it has a commandline gui attached.. | 04:07 |
|---|
| bastid_raZor | utarpradesh; try #winehq .. they'll have a better chance of helping out | 04:08 |
|---|
| leo_rockw | amenado: he's on the live cd, he says he's going to try to install ubuntu once again. i'll told him to join this channel if he still needs help. thank you. | 04:08 |

|---|
| chalex | BadServo: to set the reserved block count to 0 | 04:25 |

|---|
| nikrud | chalex not a good idea, syslog is using that free space, for example | 04:25 |
|---|
| BadServo | there are no trash folders present on the effected mounts | 04:25 |

| BadServo | boabab | 04:25 |

| BadServo | mistell | 04:25 |
|---|
| chalex | nikrud: what do you mean? also, this is not on the root partition | 04:25 |
|---|
| troxor | ghostnob: that's correct, the -f displays the fqdn | 04:25 |
|---|
| nikrud | chalex ah, good point about not root partition. the reserved space is to allow root daemons to run when users fill the disk. | 04:26 |
|---|
| amenado | ghostnob-> paste the contents of /etc/hosts | 04:26 |
|---|
| Yowshi | stupid cdemu | 04:26 |
|---|
| chalex | BadServo: the idea of reserving some blocks for root is so that your system can continue to function when you run out of disk space, which isn't an issue for your non-system partitions | 04:27 |

| bender183 | well | 04:30 |

| chalex | dapiz987: can you describe the symptoms more? | 04:30 |

| bender183 | what vid card supported 16 virtual desktops? | 04:30 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | bender183, its not a limit of the video card as far as i know., | 04:30 |
|---|
| bender183 | ahh | 04:30 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | bender183, unless you are using the term 'virtual desktop' in a way i am not. :) | 04:31 |

| bender183 | its just a software thing | 04:31 |

| deniz__ | Scunizi, i think troxor said sumtin bout scripting, i have no idea wat that means tho :S | 04:32 |
|---|
| chalex | dapiz987: are you sure it's a software issue? e.g. does Knoppix or Feisty LiveCD do the same? | 04:32 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | make a script that does each command needed one after another, then run the script. :) | 04:32 |

| Pelo | bender183, you mean you want you dektop to stretchover 8 monitors ? | 04:32 |

|---|
| dapiz987 | sounded great wit 7.10 | 04:32 |
|---|
| chalex | dapiz987: yeah, ask in ubuntu+1 | 04:32 |

| BadServo | chalax: Odd, after adjusting the reserved space I have 6.8GB available. I deleted 5.5GB from the partition with nautilus and cleared teh trash. And nautilus is only reporting 12.1GB free | 04:32 |
|---|
| Scunizi | deniz__, scripting is just a list of command done in "Bash" at the terminal that carry out your orders automatically. | 04:33 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | a multi-monitor desktop is not the same as virtual desktops. :) | 04:33 |
|---|
| dapiz987 | could it be to do with the new PulseAudio server? do you have any preference on which audio server is best before i go? | 04:33 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | dapiz987 very likely its a pulse audio issue. | 04:33 |
|---|
| deniz__ | Scunizi, wait so u mean its just a bunch of commands to do wat i want to do? | 04:33 |
|---|
| chalex | BadServo: perhaps one is reporting in GB the other in GiB? | 04:33 |
|---|
| bender183 | no, like 8 different virtual machines one on each monitor | 04:33 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | deniz__, you got it.. thats oneway to write such a script | 04:33 |

|---|
| Scunizi | deniz__, yea.. sort of.. you'd do a command to list all the pdf's then pass that list to a command to "convert" them one by one automatically.. BUT what I don't know is how to get "convert" to output the same file name as the file that is being converted.. numbering of pages is automatic. | 04:35 |
|---|
| bender183 | ty sir | 04:35 |

|---|
| Pelo | Catfood, here , depending on what, | 04:36 |
|---|
| chalex | BadServo: I mean 'df' not 'df -h', then maybe do the multiplication to convert to GB and GiB | 04:36 |
|---|
| deniz__ | troxor, i cd to directory first? do i have to modify the command in any way? | 04:36 |
|---|
| troxor | deniz__: most likely, yes | 04:36 |
|---|
| Catfood | They delay when you click on a menu item is killing me, if I turn off all effects it is fine, but I want some effects but not the delay | 04:36 |
|---|
| deniz__ | Scunizi, i had previously made imagemagick work a bit b4 | 04:36 |

| deniz__ | Scunizi, it works but i want better res, thats kinda too blurry for me to study with | 04:43 |

| Pelo | Bob_Sagot, remember that linux is case sensitive and that you donT' mount hdd you mout partitions , so /dev/sda1 , not /dev/sda , and you absolutely need a mountpoint | 04:54 |
|---|
| Bob_Sagot | i think I am going to grab my fedora book | 04:54 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | It pays to read somne tutorials on how linux mounts drives Bob_Sagot :) reading a book is a good idea. | 04:55 |
|---|
| Bob_Sagot | but usually when i boot linux before i did a quick hardware swap, it was readying just fine | 04:55 |
|---|
| Pelo | Bob_Sagot, what the dev and the mount point of the and what fs ? | 04:55 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Bob_Sagot, its not a hard concept. but it has a lot of little things to watch out for | 04:55 |
|---|
| regeya | gkffjcs: look on the ubuntu wiki for jack. alternatively, some soundcards (my sb live 5.1 will do it) can use the speaker out as input (though I disremember how rightnow0 | 04:55 |

| Dr_willis | great now you guys have my firefox crashing! | 04:55 |

| Bob_Sagot | I am not sure, what pisses me off is windows sees the drive fine | 04:56 |
|---|
| SAIDias | howdy | 04:56 |
|---|
| SAIDias | what is the copy command to copy a file to multiple directories? example: cp example into all the directories in /home/test/ | 04:56 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Bob_Sagot, check with 'sudo fdisk -l' if the device is 'seen' by the computer it will show up there.. if fdisk dosent even see the device.. well thers deeper issues | 04:56 |
|---|
| regeya | jackd allows for some really awesome stuff, including audio routing, gkffjcs...thank god for tab competion coz your nick is to jacked up | 04:56 |
|---|
| regeya | ever considered a nick with vowels? | 04:56 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | SAIDias, you would proberly have to do a little script, or mess with xargs a bit for that. | 04:56 |
|---|
| Bob_Sagot | it sees the 2nd drive | 04:56 |

| decay | weird problem. i have a hard drive mounted. i can browse through it, drag files in and out of it. but when i try to browse it through a dialog window, the files inside dont show | 05:05 |
|---|
| decay | any ideas? | 05:05 |
|---|
| regeya | decay, just a wild guess but um. wait. you | 05:06 |
|---|
| decay | regeya: i hope not | 05:06 |
|---|
| regeya | you wouldn't happen to have hidden files showing in your file manager decay would you | 05:07 |
|---|
| regeya | as in .hidden_file | 05:07 |
|---|
| decay | nope | 05:07 |
|---|
| Flannel | decay: This is mounted automatically via gnome? or not? | 05:07 |
|---|
| regeya | now that's darn peculiar | 05:07 |
|---|
| decay | Flannel: yes | 05:07 |
|---|
| IzMbit | any ideas how to mount my win drive and copy ntldr to correct place? | 05:07 |
|---|
| decay | regeya: when i click view hidden files, nothing shows either | 05:07 |
|---|
| Flannel | decay: Right, those dont show up in the filesystem proper | 05:07 |

| GNUix | I have a laptop with a broadcom wireless card (requires firmware cutter) so I purchased a belkin pcmcia card (model F5D7010) which according to the docs is supported with the rt2500 driver but it isn't picking up.. what else can I do? | 05:08 |
|---|
| Flannel | regeya: We all start somewhere, don't worry. | 05:08 |
|---|
| jengelh | GNUix: use a broadcom driver, not a RalinkTech one? | 05:09 |

| jengelh | but if the manual says so.. ok | 05:09 |
|---|
| === bruenig_ is now known as bruenig |

| IndyGunFreak | GNUix: is it a usb or what? | 05:10 |
|---|
| GNUix | its a pcmcia card | 05:10 |
|---|
| decay | Flannel: can't i do that by clicking the folder in the /media/ dir and selecting 'mount' ? | 05:10 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | lol | 05:11 |
|---|
| din | IzMbit: run fdisk -l to see what type filesystem is on your disk. when you find the one that's windows,(probably ntfs) run "sudo mount /said/device /mnt" | 05:11 |
|---|
| Flannel | decay: uh, I'm not really all that experienced with the GUI, so... maybe? | 05:11 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | GNUix: hmm, weird. | 05:11 |
|---|
| === Cosmosan is now known as Cosmo-san |
| decay | Flannel: ok i went to /media/ and tried opening the folder, it says i dont have permission | 05:11 |

|---|
| happis | hey | 05:11 |
|---|
| regeya | Flannel I was referring to my terrible alcohol tolerance and I thought that gnome, when a drive was mountable, just mounted it...unlike kde, where you may or may not be using an ioslave | 05:12 |
|---|
| Flannel | decay: right click the icon on the desktop, then unmount it, then make a folder in /media, and mount it there. | 05:12 |
|---|
| GNUix | IndyGunFreak: I guess it could be the card is broke.. but if I remove the card dmesg shows the card removed and then if I reinsert is hows it as reinserting but no other info is givin | 05:12 |

| prohna | but the thing is when i check to see where its mounted its like its mounted in dif spot each time i plug it in ie: first time it was in /media/ipod, second time it was in /media/ipod_, and so on with another _ each time. | 06:21 |

| nikrud | morris do grep morris /etc/passwd, and grep morris /etc/groups please, let me see those | 06:28 |

| izinucs | tocmo0nlord, sorry just looked and they have 2007. | 06:28 |

| Thib_ | aww. | 06:28 |
|---|
| Thib_ | well | 06:28 |
|---|
| nikrud | morris erm, that's /etc/group that is | 06:28 |
|---|
| Thib_ | that didn't help | 06:28 |
|---|
| morris | nikrud: morris:x:1000:1000:Morris,,,:/home/morris:/bin/bash | 06:29 |

| Thib_ | which is odd | 06:29 |
|---|
| Thib_ | well | 06:29 |

|---|
| morris | nikrud - 1 mo | 06:29 |
|---|
| Thib_ | not really, considering I don't know much about the kernel | 06:29 |
|---|
| nikrud | morris erm, that's a 3rd one, groups shows all the groups you're a member of ;) | 06:30 |

|---|
| Xerxes | zmr, thanks. :) | 06:30 |
|---|
| |raziel| | so I have a very odd question and I figured this would be about the the best place for a quick answer | 06:30 |
|---|
| morris | Yep - I know what I did - and I know that editing the groups file manually will probably fix it, but I have only been using Linux for a week... | 06:31 |
|---|
| nikrud | morris ok, you got a problem, you're not in the admin group. reboot into recovery mode, and run adduser morris admin . That gives back sudo | 06:31 |
|---|
| nikrud | morris or if you have root , run it there | 06:31 |
|---|
| RyanPrior | If I play Counter Strike: Source via Wine, does it use my graphics card? | 06:31 |
|---|
| morris | nikrud: thanks - I didn't think of using recovery mode! | 06:32 |
|---|
| nikrud | morris and you'll need to add back some other groups as well. I'm not in gutsy at the moment so I can't give you the list, but some kind soul here should be able to give you the output of groups | 06:32 |
|---|
| morris | I will just use whatever groups are in the admin mode. | 06:33 |
|---|
| morris | I just need to remember not to use -g option with adduser :) | 06:33 |
|---|
| nikrud | morris there's several, such as plugdev and audio and some others you need to be a member of. | 06:33 |
|---|
| nikrud | hehe | 06:33 |
|---|
| morris | nikrud: thanks heaps. | 06:33 |
|---|
| morris | OK - bye bye! | 06:34 |
|---|
| nikrud | RyanPrior of course it uses your graphics card, how else would you see it? | 06:34 |
|---|
| |raziel| | is there a way to install ubuntu from the iso without burning it to a disk (i'm currently running debian) | 06:35 |
|---|
| RyanPrior | nikrud: Perhaps it would use software rendering. I heard somewhere that wine can't access your graphics card or something, but I don't know much about it. | 06:35 |
|---|
| RyanPrior | Not just using the graphics card, but utilizing it for 3D rendering. | 06:35 |
|---|
| nikrud | RyanPrior I don't use wine but I do know it will not use directX properly, and many games can use the -gl option on the command line to play in opengl, which your card does support | 06:36 |
|---|
| RyanPrior | It can't translate from directx to opengl? | 06:36 |
|---|
| nikrud | RyanPrior or -opengl , or some version of that switch depending on the game. #winehq can point you to the right settings | 06:36 |

| phreck | How do i change my read/write permissions on my CDROM/DVDROM Drives? | 07:17 |
|---|
| unop_ | enby, if you are experiencing that behaviour across browsers, then it's probably your home router that caches DNS lookups and it's caching them too long. | 07:17 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | anyone? | 07:18 |
|---|
| unop_ | phreck, you can only change the permissions on the mount point, all contents on optical drives are read-only so you can't do that | 07:18 |
|---|
| phreck | ok, how do i change permissions on mount point and device | 07:18 |

|---|
| unop_ | rhandyk, ubuntu can share folders too, you can use samba (works well with windows pcs) or nfs (which works well with other unix systems) | 07:20 |
|---|
| AGS | wbreslin: you need maybe to change it, just to see if it works - play around with that setting a bit... | 07:20 |

| unop_ | rhandyk, samba is a linux way to share files | 07:21 |

| rhandyk | hmm | 07:21 |

| captain | Hey guys, i was installing ndiswrapper and after the make command i ran into this | 07:31 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | AGS: yeah | 07:31 |
|---|
| captain | CFLAGS was changed in "/home/captain/bcm43xx/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper-1.49/driver/Makefile". Fix it to use EXTRA_CFLAGS. | 07:31 |
|---|
| AGS | wbreslin951: awesome | 07:31 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | hey guys, could someone help me get the brightness applet working? I'm stuck at full brightness all the time :( | 07:31 |

|---|
| hunter | em log.can any one give me a hint about whats happning pls | 07:31 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: do u have a shortcut key for brightness? | 07:32 |
|---|
| captain | any ideas what that EXTRA_CFLAGS means ? or why i got that error... | 07:32 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | not that I am aware of | 07:32 |
|---|
| unop_ | captain, is there a reason for compiling ndiswrapper instead of using the package from the repositories? | 07:32 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | I loaded the applet onto the bar | 07:32 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: what kinda comp u have? im assuming a laptop considering theres no brightness control on the monitor | 07:32 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | ye | 07:32 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | s | 07:32 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: do you have a shortcut key? mines blue and has the letters fn on it | 07:33 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | I selected my monitor type already, but I get a red circle with a cross through it over the applet | 07:33 |
|---|
| captain | unop : following a guide for my wireless drivers here, had to do it this way | 07:33 |
|---|
| Kiborg | Hi! One question. How do I create a new user? | 07:33 |
|---|
| captain | i tried sudo make , same result | 07:33 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: do you have a shortcut key on your keyboard? mines in the bottom left corner and has fn printed on it.. | 07:33 |
|---|
| unop_ | captain, follow a guide that shows you how to use the ubuntu package, that is the recommended way unless that way doesnt work | 07:33 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | yes, they dont work | 07:33 |
|---|
| anand | hi all. ive just upgraded my laptop memory to 2GB RAM. I want to allocate 512MB RAM to my i915 Video Card. How do I do it ? | 07:33 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: try holding that key and pressing the up and down keys.. | 07:34 |
|---|
| Starnestommy | Kiborg: system > administration > users and groups | 07:34 |
|---|
| AGS | No1Cantel: What graphics card you got? | 07:34 |
|---|
| unop_ | captain, there is nothing against compiling packages, but you will have a headache if and when you do decide to uninstall ndiswrapper - the add/remove program does not handle manually installed packages | 07:34 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | anand, that wold be a setting in the BIOS most likely | 07:34 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | I know my shortcut keys on my board, witht eh fn button, but if you mean did I create one in ubuntu then no | 07:34 |
|---|
| anand | Dr_willis: ive setting it to MaxDVMT in BIOS | 07:34 |
|---|
| fol | hi, is there a way to get out of the Gnome window system and go to command line in ubuntu? | 07:34 |
|---|
| Kiborg | Thank You I was looking under a wrong thing. :) | 07:35 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | I haven't gotten to shortcuts yet, I am still a noob :P | 07:35 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: no u don't have to make the shortcut in ubuntu | 07:35 |
|---|
| Starnestommy | fol: ctrl+alt+f1 | 07:35 |
|---|
| AGS | No1CanNTyL: What graphics card you got? | 07:35 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: just try holding the button and pressuing up/down | 07:35 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | so you meant eh built in keyboard combo, and no they stopped working when I swapped from windows to ubuntu | 07:35 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | AGS: i doubt it has anything to do with the graphics card | 07:35 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | the function button?? | 07:35 |
|---|
| Fearful | linux is the best thing that has happen to me <3 | 07:35 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: really? mine didn't lol | 07:35 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: yeah the function button | 07:35 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | fn + up/down is for volume | 07:35 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | which works | 07:36 |
|---|
| AGS | wbreslin951: with mine it was... ATI graphics :( | 07:36 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | anand, it maybe it cant handle any more. | 07:36 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | AGS: mines ati as well and i didn't have to mess with anything for it to work | 07:36 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | AGS: the driver for the monitor is differen | 07:36 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | t | 07:36 |
|---|
| AGS | wbreslin951: ah | 07:36 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | but the icon for the brightness applet has a red circle with a slash through it, I assume there is a problem with the load right? | 07:36 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | the applet gives me a meter but the meter does not move | 07:37 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: possibly, maybe the driver got blacklisted? | 07:37 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: doubt it tho.. | 07:37 |
|---|
| captain | CFLAGS was changed in "/home/captain/bcm43xx/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper-1.49/driver/Makefile". Fix it to use EXTRA_CFLAGS. | 07:37 |
|---|
| captain | any ideas what that EXTRA_CFLAGS means ? or why i got that error... | 07:37 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: what kind of monitor is it? do you know? | 07:37 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | my driver came with ubuntu so I couldn't see why | 07:37 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | yes, one sec | 07:37 |

|---|
| wers | run "free the fish" in the run dialog | 07:42 |
|---|
| softtower | I am a bit confused by /usr/share/doc folder. Are those just random manuals in various formats or I am supposed to use some kind of tool to work with them? | 07:42 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: go to system > administration > screens and graphics | 07:42 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | k | 07:42 |
|---|
| xtknight | wers, right click it :p | 07:42 |
|---|
| xtknight | i discovered that on accident | 07:43 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: click the thing right after the 'model' part | 07:43 |
|---|
| Fearful | whats the best dark theme? | 07:43 |
|---|
| wers | xtknight, i tried that | 07:43 |

|---|
| No1CaNTeL | the res dropdown? | 07:43 |

|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: right above that, what does it say in that box tho? | 07:43 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | right above the res dropdown | 07:43 |
|---|
| Cheetah | is there a detailed list of changes for ubuntu 8.04? | 07:44 |
|---|
| unop_ | softtower, they aren't random, they're your documentation :) and the format depends | 07:44 |
|---|
| Starnestommy | Cheetah: someone in #ubuntu+1 probably knows. | 07:44 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | above it?? under the screen tab, the Model field is the first one showing | 07:44 |
|---|
| Cheetah | Starnestommy, thanks | 07:44 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | above it is location | 07:44 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: yeah, click that | 07:44 |
|---|
| Fearful | hey i have a question, can i simply upgrade when 8.04 is ready, keeping all my current things and settings? | 07:44 |
|---|
| Fearful | i'm really new to ubuntu and i'm fascinated | 07:44 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | k, I looked for my screen before but did not find it in this list, is there another driver I can use? | 07:45 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: there should be "model: ....." then under that "resolution: ..... at .... hz." | 07:45 |
|---|
| xtknight | wers. excuse me. the fish is still on my screen too lol | 07:45 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Fearful, yes that should be doable | 07:45 |
|---|
| Fearful | nice | 07:45 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: click the one right after model | 07:45 |
|---|
| wers | xtknight, see?? | 07:45 |
|---|
| wers | hahaha | 07:45 |
|---|
| wers | it just runs away | 07:45 |
|---|
| wers | hehe | 07:45 |
|---|
| xtknight | that thing is elusive | 07:45 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Fearful, i tend to do clean reinstalls however.. Just seems to work a littel better for me. | 07:45 |
|---|
| Fearful | i see | 07:45 |
|---|
| Fearful | When will it be stable | 07:46 |
|---|
| softtower | unop_: thanks. are you on ubuntu right now? | 07:46 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: ya still there? | 07:46 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | my bad, I was seeing the res in both box's :P 3am :P | 07:46 |
|---|
| unop_ | softtower, errm, what do you think? :) | 07:46 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | it says LCD Panel 1024x768 | 07:46 |
|---|
| xtknight | wers, you can try restarting gnome-panel but i dont know if that will kill your documents | 07:46 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | generic driver I would assume | 07:46 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: k well click there, | 07:46 |
|---|
| sympton | start konsole and kill it by pid number | 07:46 |
|---|
| wers | xtknight, it won't i think | 07:46 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: and a choose screen dialog should pop up | 07:46 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | yes | 07:47 |
|---|
| xtknight | wers, ya i just did it " killall gnome-panel && gnome-panel ". cant confirm if fish is gone yet | 07:47 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: in the manufacturer list, click generic | 07:47 |
|---|
| wers | okay. tell me if it's gone :) | 07:47 |
|---|
| wers | maybe it's the panel if the fish is an applet | 07:47 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: and under the model list, go to the bottom and click Plug 'n' Play | 07:47 |
|---|
| wers | and run dialog is also connected to the panel | 07:47 |
|---|
| xtknight | wers well i haven't seen it | 07:47 |
|---|
| mip | awk | 07:47 |
|---|
| softtower | unop_: windows? :-) I've been on this chat sitting @work. Can you please look at this file: /usr/share/doc/mailx/manual.txt.gz (txt inside). That's clearly not a simple text file. | 07:47 |
|---|
| xtknight | wers i got that tip from a page.. it's a gnome easter egg | 07:47 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: then click okay in both boxes | 07:47 |
|---|
| sympton | anyone here familiar with fighting pci wlan cards ? | 07:47 |
|---|
| wers | xtknight, | 07:48 |
|---|
| wers | yep | 07:48 |
|---|
| wers | so it worked? | 07:48 |
|---|
| Fearful | What's the best dark theme for ubuntu, I'm currently using Clear Glass | 07:48 |
|---|
| xtknight | wers yea | 07:48 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | sympton: broadcom? | 07:48 |
|---|
| wers | xtknight, yeah. 'cause run dialog is a part of gnome panel | 07:48 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: hows it workin? anything yet? | 07:48 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | k, it will not load properly in the second box, I get it under Model but there are no res or refresh rates available | 07:49 |
|---|
| unop_ | softtower, i dont have that file -- and that file is compressed with gzip, so you need to uncompress it first to get the plain text | 07:49 |
|---|
| sympton | wbreslin951: tried that too, loaded restricted drivers, it found essid's, but couldt join on any | 07:49 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | and I cannot click ok to close the box, it does nothing | 07:49 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: is the 'widescreen' box checked? | 07:49 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | in the select monitor dialogue? | 07:49 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | it says widescreen but it is not checked | 07:49 |
|---|
| sympton | now i have a-link card, hich doesnt find any networks, it recognices on boot tho | 07:49 |
|---|
| softtower | unop_: I know about gzip :) but the text file inside has some weird symbols all over... I was thinking maybe I can read it with "info". | 07:50 |
|---|
| mvsn | I'm curious, is there a software for ubuntu that allows you to manage hosting servers? like when you are hosting through say Go Daddy, or 1&1 or anything like that? | 07:50 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: hm.. well as long as its working fine, you don't really need the res selector do you? | 07:50 |
|---|
| miggilinme | Sorry if I'm interrupting anything | 07:51 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | kinda, I am programming a couple guis and I need to test diff resolutions | 07:51 |
|---|
| miggilinme | My wireless card isn't showing up | 07:51 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | but with it checked or not it would not let me hit ok on the second box | 07:51 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: k give me a sec.. | 07:51 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | one sec, I have it loaded at 640x480 p&p but I need to logoff | 07:51 |
|---|
| AGS | miggilinme: what model? | 07:52 |
|---|
| luke__kolol | hey all | 07:52 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | that res is too small but it was the only one that popped up after I restarted the graphics options | 07:52 |
|---|
| sympton | wbreslin951: got any tips with broadcom chipset ? | 07:52 |
|---|
| miggilinme | My model is BCM4306 | 07:52 |
|---|
| luke__kolol | anyone know if theres a firewall for ubuntu? | 07:52 |
|---|
| miggilinme | On the default install I had the old bcm43xx driver | 07:52 |
|---|
| AGS | miggilinme: PCI or pcmcia? | 07:52 |
|---|
| unop__ | softtower, i think the best thing to do is identify what kind of text file it is with 'file' - file /usr/share/doc/mailx/manual.txt.gz | 07:52 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | sympton: throw ur bcm card out the window and get a wireless bridge, the restricted drivers suck and ndiswrapper doesn't work very good either | 07:53 |
|---|
| miggilinme | Laptop | 07:53 |
|---|
| Starnestommy | luke__kolol: there's already installed called iptables or netfilter | 07:53 |
|---|
| miggilinme | dell inspiron 600m | 07:53 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | wbreslin951: brb, gonna logoff and reload the settings after the new drivers are initialized | 07:53 |
|---|
| AGS | miggilinme: hold on... | 07:53 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | sympton: unless ur like, computer genios | 07:53 |
|---|
| luke__kolol | thx | 07:53 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: dont | 07:53 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | kk | 07:53 |
|---|
| sympton | wbreslin951: ok, how about a-link wlan cards ?) | 07:53 |
|---|
| miggilinme | broadcom chip | 07:53 |
|---|
| jarango | I have two kernel versions installed in my system (both are ubuntu packages). I need some help getting the nvidia driver (also ubuntu) to work with both kernels. Is there a clean way to do this ? | 07:53 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | sympton: bcm is probably the worst as far as open-sourcing their drivers so anything other then them will probably work | 07:53 |
|---|
| sympton | kk | 07:54 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | k, now this is driving me nuts, I just reopened the graphics options page and now 800x600 & 1024x768 are in the list | 07:54 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: im saving some screen shots of the monitor settings for you just to make sure | 07:54 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | it is now set to plug and play 1024x768 | 07:54 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: pm me? ill get ur email and send u the screen shots | 07:54 |
|---|
| AlphaOmega | how do i boot into command prompt? | 07:55 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | http://www.tinypic.com ? | 07:55 |
|---|
| softtower | unop_: thanks. let me try... | 07:55 |
|---|
| AlphaOmega | i hosed my xorg.conf | 07:55 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | AlphaOmega: before you log in, click options in the bottom right | 07:55 |
|---|
| sympton | any1 managed to get Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8185 working ?) | 07:55 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | AlphaOmega: and it's right in there | 07:55 |
|---|
| AlphaOmega | i dont even get that | 07:55 |
|---|
| miggilinme | AGS: Long story short, I upgraded the driver to b43 using the wirless compatibility pack | 07:55 |
|---|
| sympton | wlan card that is | 07:55 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | post with a password if needs be, easier that way :P | 07:55 |
|---|
| miggilinme | AGS: I can load the module, but for some reason the interface isn't showing up anymore | 07:55 |
|---|
| * No1CaNTeL is probably the only internet junky who despises email :P | 07:56 |
| wbreslin951 | AlphaOmega: when the computer boots, before you log in there is an options thing in the bottom right corner | 07:56 |
|---|

| wbreslin951 | No1CaNTeL: but i cant figure out which file it is | 08:01 |

| SuperQ | luke__kolol: if you want to use the windows native RDP protocol for remote login | 08:01 |

| No1CaNTeL | lol, that was my next q :P | 08:01 |
|---|
| luke__kolol | vnc ftw! | 08:01 |
|---|
| unop__ | softtower, the file appears to contain ANSI escape sequences to display some of the text in colour, so it's likely this file is read by mailx and displayed within the program itself | 08:01 |

| wbreslin951 | whats the file in init.d that starts your display drivers? | 08:02 |
|---|
| SuperQ | luke__kolol: Under System > Preferences > Remote Desktop you can enable VNC server | 08:02 |
|---|
| wbreslin951 | or the xorg stuff | 08:02 |
|---|
| unop__ | softtower, if you want to read this file -- you can use cat at the command line, it removes the escape sequences - cat manual.txt | 08:02 |

| TheSandman_ | but i presume they are outdated | 08:10 |

| softtower | lxuser: there is "bootable" flag that you can assign to a partition. Only one partition can have it at the same time. You clear that flag on your current bootable partition and set it onto a new one. | 08:10 |

| magnetron | luke__kolol: you should Apple if they support Ubuntu. probably not. | 08:10 |

|---|
| Lleumas | woot, recordMyDesktop pwns :) | 08:13 |
|---|
| hischild | TheSandman_: the drivers provided by the Restricted Driver Manager are the ones that are usually the best. Did you install those drivers? | 08:13 |
|---|
| hey | you mean system then admin ? | 08:13 |
|---|
| ComputerPassion | yea, its called gnome-nettool | 08:14 |

| hey | tcan it be done threw command | 08:14 |

| hey | like restart ath0 or somehting | 08:14 |

|---|
| J-_ | How can I seen how much video memory I have? | 08:15 |
|---|
| softtower | lxuser: you go and edit your current /boot partition: there is "bootable' flag - you clear it. I don't have gparted or anything else at the moment, so I can't tell you exactly which button to press | 08:15 |
|---|
| ComputerPassion | in terminal try gnome-nettool or ip | 08:15 |
|---|
| hey | k | 08:15 |
|---|
| hischild | softtower: using fdisk, you can switch the bootable flag with a and then partition number. | 08:15 |
|---|
| ComputerPassion | am kinda new to linux myself have to google everything lol | 08:16 |

|---|
| ComputerPassion | try man ip and see if you can learn how it works | 08:16 |

| lxuser | softtower, i don't have a /boot partition, this system has just "/" root which hold the /boot directory | 08:16 |

|---|
| lxuser | hischild, ok, i think your suggestion is more in the area of what am looking for | 08:17 |
|---|
| hischild | softtower: that was the wrong nick ... | 08:17 |
|---|
| softtower | ah :) | 08:17 |
|---|
| hischild | lxuser: can you please tell me the situation? I just woke up and didn't read the whole story. | 08:17 |
|---|
| softtower | How ironic... I just given up on ATI drivers and sold my T60p and got T61 with Intel video instead... first time on IRC on a new machine and someone reminds me about my horrific experience with ATI :) | 08:18 |
|---|
| hischild | softtower: i used to run an x1300 gfx card without any trouble whatsoever. | 08:19 |
|---|
| softtower | hischild: why "bootable" flag isn't it? how else MBR "finds" the partition to boot from? | 08:19 |
|---|
| lxuser | softtower, I have a system that has "/" root which contains /home/ boot/ /tmp/ and so forth, but I want to seperate the boot from the system and put it in a different partition | 08:19 |
|---|
| softtower | X1300 wasn't so bad. I got "lucky" with FireGL mobile series... | 08:19 |
|---|
| lxuser | hischild I have a system that has "/" root which contains /home/ boot/ /tmp/ and so forth, but I want to seperate the boot from the system and put it in a different partition | 08:20 |
|---|
| hischild | softtower: well i'm wondering about his situation, perhaps there's a better alternative or i can adjust my advice to be more specific. | 08:20 |
|---|
| hischild | lxuser: i see. I assume you've created a seperate /boot by now and copied the whole stuff over, correct? | 08:20 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | k, swapping my screens just mucked up my ubuntu install with a fatal server error :( | 08:21 |
|---|
| lxuser | hischild, no i haven't, i just wanted to know what route was best | 08:21 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | I am on a different pc now | 08:21 |
|---|
| Flannel | lxuser: http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/01/29/move-home-to-its-own-partition/ for the movement (moving to /boot instead of home) then you need to reinstall GRUB on the MBR (stage 1, see first link in !grub) to point to the new /boot partition | 08:22 |

|---|
| J-_ | How can I seen how much video memory I have? | 08:22 |
|---|
| comsa | lspci -vvv | 08:22 |
|---|
| hischild | lxuser: the best way to do this, would be to create a seperate /boot, then copy your current boot over, mount it over your current /boot, add it to /etc/fstab, tell grub to use your new partition instead of your old one and set it to active. (the setting active will usually be done by grub) | 08:23 |
|---|
| Flannel | lxuser: I suppose depending on how you do it, you may need to update more of your fstab (not if using UUIDs), and you may need to update your menu.lst as well. But nothing major | 08:23 |
|---|
| hischild | Flannel: running grub-install should fix that iirc | 08:24 |
|---|
| softtower | hischild: what is "bootable" flag is for? | 08:24 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | I'm not sure of the name of theguy who was just helping me with my screen brightness problem, but it has caused a fatal server error and I can't log back in on that pc | 08:24 |
|---|
| comsa | J-_ lspci -vvv in a terminal | 08:24 |
|---|
| Flannel | softtower, hischild, bootable flag doesn't matter unless you're running DOS | 08:25 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | can someone help me out? | 08:25 |
|---|
| hischild | Flannel: softtower: it also matters on the win bootloaders if they're run (which doesn't happen unless you run multiple win OS) | 08:25 |
|---|
| J-_ | comsa: hmm, doesn't really say.. Maybe I'll check out ##hardware | 08:25 |
|---|
| lxuser | Flannel, am looking at the link, but it seem that as you said it would have to be more than just update grub | 08:25 |
|---|
| softtower | Flannel: funny... why do Linux partitioners still include it then? (I totally believe you, I'm just curious) | 08:25 |
|---|
| hischild | softtower: due to DOS and win bootloaders still looking at them | 08:26 |
|---|
| Flannel | softtower: for completeness. So you can use linux to make other OSs happy | 08:26 |
|---|
| lxuser | Flannel, this link talks about new /home not new /boot | 08:26 |
|---|
| Flannel | lxuser: Well, you're basically just moving the stuff, and then updating everything with the new locations of the stuff you moved. | 08:26 |
|---|
| Flannel | lxuser: Right, like I said, /boot instead of /home, but the process is the same (cpio etc) | 08:27 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | anyone?? I dont mean to bug but I am screwed for work if I cant get back in :( | 08:27 |
|---|
| Flannel | lxuser: I'm sure theres a tutorial out there that actually uses the text "/boot" to demonstrate, but I'm familiar with this one. | 08:27 |

|---|
| No1CaNTeL | (EE) I810(0): No such video BIOS modes for chosen depth | 08:30 |
|---|
| hischild | No1CaNTeL: right. Easiest (probably fastest as well) would be to reboot into recovery mode, then run ==> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 08:30 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | and no, I had no wayt to know to do that :P | 08:30 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | I'm still uber | 08:30 |
|---|
| Flannel | lxuser: You need to make sure you reinstall GRUB stage1, to point to your new /boot partition, but no, as far as partitioning is concerned, you just need to make a second one and format it properly. | 08:30 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | I can get to a command console only, but not into teh gui | 08:30 |

|---|
| Dr-Willis | heck. He may have some backups | 08:32 |
|---|
| lxuser | Flannel, i think you just hit the nail in the head, yes GRUB stage1 is probably what i was looking for. I will look at the logic and pose any concern i may have, but i think this is it | 08:32 |
|---|
| spartan7 | i changed my router to no wireless security and my wireless card is still asking me for a wpa passphrase when i try to connect | 08:32 |

| Lattyware | Hey all, Dunno if anyone knows of such a program, but I need one which monitors whether my net connection is live, and then logs it, so I can see when it goes down. I could write something myself, but I was wondering if something existed, preferably with graphs :P | 08:38 |

| sguru | and how to do that | 08:39 |
|---|
| hischild | gluer: sguru: the whole problem is that grub doesn't recognize the file system. It most likely is looking at the wrong partition. Creating an ntfs partition isn't going to help in that. Just point it at the right partition. | 08:39 |
|---|
| gluer | sguru: i had the same issue with a 160bg laptop, i created a 32mb windows partition during installation, then booted correctly | 08:39 |
|---|
| sguru | i have already my files in the laptop i cannot reinstall | 08:40 |

| No1CaNTeL | sweet, doing the restart allowed me to add my resolution to the list :P | 08:40 |

| gligorhoria | Arelis yes, ati is bad, reset xorg, like hischild told you! | 08:42 |

|---|
| hischild | spartan7: you can select your network in nm-applet and use that to connect. It sometimes means you have to wait a bit for it to show your network. It then overwrites your old settings. | 08:43 |

| bullgard4 | What means "comm" in the kernel message: "[79721.755165] Pid: 69, comm: kacpi_notify Not tainted 2.6.24-git9 #4"? | 08:47 |

| math | hischild: now, (I even dunno how to accomplish that) | 08:48 |
|---|
| hischild | Arelis: well tbqh that's not good. I'm unaware of any methods of switching resolutions without seeing what you're going. | 08:48 |
|---|
| Arelis | hischild: well since it happens from within GNOME, it has to be a user setting. Problem is, which? | 08:48 |
|---|
| softtower | Darkjustice: do you have other windows machines that can see your shares? (I just want to make sure it's not windows problem) | 08:48 |
|---|
| JustRock | Hi, everybody. | 08:49 |
|---|
| hischild | sguru: do you have a separate /home partition? | 08:49 |
|---|
| DarkJustice | softtower: not at the moment but before I installed ubuntu I had winblows on that box and it saw it with no problems | 08:49 |
|---|
| sguru | hischild: seperate means.... now i see /home/ubuntu | 08:49 |
|---|
| math | hischild: I made just a distupgrade (months ago..), and supplied updates (including kernel updates via automatic updates) and now I've taken an accidental look at top and /proc/cpuinfo.. and who.. wheres my second core gone? | 08:49 |
|---|
| sguru | hischild: as i have booted from live cd | 08:49 |
|---|
| No1CaNTeL | is it possible to add a resolution to the screens and graphics list from within the gui? | 08:50 |
|---|
| hischild | sguru:what i meant was if, during your install previously, you created a seperate /home partition. | 08:50 |
|---|
| luke__kolol | im trying to use alien but it says it must run as root (or fakeroot) how do i run it as root?? | 08:50 |
|---|
| softtower | Darkjustice: ok, what does /etc/samba/smb.conf say? | 08:50 |
|---|
| hischild | math: well that's just odd. See in your /boot if you have any other kernel other then the mise one. | 08:50 |
|---|
| hischild | luke__kolol: don't use alien. It's bad. | 08:50 |
|---|
| DarkJustice | softtower: umm what part of it? I have MYNETWORK listed as the workgroup if tha'ts what you mean | 08:51 |
|---|
| luke__kolol | hischild: then how do i convert things to .deb? | 08:51 |
|---|
| JustRock | I have a question, can apt-get use the multi-thread downloaders like aria2 and axel? | 08:51 |
|---|
| sguru | hischild: i used only one partition in which the entire linux was installed. So the entire / directory will be in a single partition | 08:51 |
|---|
| hischild | luke__kolol: you don't have to. What are you trying to install? | 08:51 |
|---|
| luke__kolol | firefox | 08:51 |
|---|
| hischild | sguru: hmm ... do you know how to mount your directory? | 08:51 |
|---|
| math | hischild: seems not.. | 08:51 |
|---|
| luke__kolol | its .tar.gz | 08:51 |
|---|
| hischild | luke__kolol: on ubuntu? it's already installed. | 08:51 |

| luke__kolol | yeah | 08:52 |
|---|
| sguru | i was not able to mount my harddisk | 08:52 |
|---|
| luke__kolol | but its ver 2.0.0.9 | 08:52 |

| luke__kolol | i need 2.0.0.13 | 08:52 |
|---|
| math | hischild: meaning, I can't find one with a smp string in its name | 08:52 |
|---|
| softtower | DarkJustice: hm... yea, I don't have any ideas. | 08:52 |
|---|
| hischild | luke__kolol: and .tar.gz is a source file usually. That means extract it and then compile it. | 08:52 |
|---|
| sguru | hischild: mount /dev/sda /mnt/sda was the command i used | 08:52 |

| softtower | DarkJustice: in my case it helped to read a linux book. cover to cover, over a weekend, without even touching a computer. | 09:05 |
|---|
| lesshaste | I've installed memtest86+ now how do I see what files are in that package? | 09:05 |
|---|
| corza | hischild: i want to intall Ubuntu over win XP | 09:05 |
|---|
| lesshaste | dpkg -c memtest86+ fails | 09:05 |
|---|
| ChUrRo | can any one tell me the channel of compiz support? | 09:05 |
|---|
| hischild | Cyborg: you've stated 4 times that you want to mount an ntfs partition. Yet you haven't told us a single time what the problem exactly is. | 09:05 |
|---|
| lesshaste | ChUrRo: #compiz | 09:06 |
|---|
| Cyborg | that is the problem i want to mount :) | 09:06 |
|---|
| hischild | corza: ok. And is there a reason why you can't just select install? | 09:06 |
|---|
| ChUrRo | thanks | 09:06 |
|---|
| DarkJustice | softtower: ok I might try that but doubtful, at this point I'm ready to just quit, about to have a coronary | 09:06 |
|---|
| hischild | Cyborg: mount <partition> <location> | 09:06 |
|---|
| Cyborg | hmm without any programs ? | 09:06 |
|---|
| luke__kolol | what is the best linux distro? | 09:06 |
|---|
| DarkJustice | Cyborg if you don't have ntfs-3g do sudo get-apt install ntfs-3g... then you can mount ntfs | 09:06 |
|---|
| softtower | yes, books help :) | 09:06 |
|---|
| Cyborg | k... | 09:07 |
|---|
| corza | hischild: yes, it freezes after i click install and then the scroll lock light and capslock light blinks | 09:07 |
|---|
| hischild | Cyborg: yes | 09:07 |
|---|
| Cyborg | i don't have any programs | 09:07 |
|---|
| Cyborg | and linux don't read and write | 09:07 |
|---|
| Cyborg | in ntfs parititions | 09:07 |
|---|
| ty | luke__kolol:ubuntu / kubuntu is pretty easy to get used to | 09:07 |
|---|
| corza | hischild: howeer it does get past the kernel loading | 09:07 |
|---|
| hischild | Cyborg: ntfs-3g can read. | 09:07 |
|---|
| lesshaste | : I mean how do I see the contents of a package I install via apt-get in general? I.e. which files were in it | 09:07 |
|---|
| DarkJustice | Cyborg: ubuntu will read and write to ntfs with no problems | 09:07 |
|---|
| lesshaste | DarkJustice: what is the problem? | 09:07 |
|---|
| hischild | corza: alright. Then hit f6 on that line to edit the line and remove quiet and splash. | 09:07 |
|---|
| Cyborg | hischild: i read the ntfs-3g site and he needs a fuse..or something like this | 09:08 |
|---|
| comsa | corza sounds like a hardware porb | 09:08 |
|---|
| DarkJustice | lesshaste: thanks, umm having samba issues, won't see my xp box and windows won't see the ubuntu box | 09:08 |
|---|
| comsa | problem | 09:08 |
|---|
| hischild | Cyborg: can be. First install ntfs-3g, then add yourself to the fuse group. | 09:08 |
|---|
| lesshaste | DarkJustice: aha... have you tried a more samba-ish forum/channel? | 09:08 |
|---|
| Cyborg | hmmm what is fuse ? | 09:08 |
|---|
| lesshaste | DarkJustice: for example, #samaba | 09:08 |
|---|
| lesshaste | oops | 09:08 |
|---|
| corza | alrighty ill try that | 09:08 |
|---|
| lesshaste | #samba | 09:08 |
|---|
| Cyborg | ...tell me exactly want i can do | 09:08 |
|---|
| hischild | Cyborg: do you have an Ubuntu system? | 09:09 |

| Lin1 | and he will say NO | 09:09 |
|---|
| Lin1 | ;)) | 09:09 |
|---|
| Cyborg | kubuntu | 09:09 |
|---|
| DarkJustice | lesshaste: no not yet, I also had a ntfs mounting issue I was hoping to get fixed, like Cyborg. However I got mine mounted, but it won't auto mount upon reboot, and I've tried to edit the fstab | 09:09 |
|---|
| hischild | Cyborg: then join #kubuntu | 09:09 |
|---|
| Cyborg | hmmm | 09:09 |
|---|
| lesshaste | I mean how do I see the contents of a package I install via apt-get in general? I.e. which files were in it | 09:09 |
|---|
| Cyborg | hischild: i can't | 09:09 |
|---|
| Lin1 | LOOL | 09:09 |
|---|
| Cyborg | so i can get some help ? | 09:09 |
|---|
| hischild | Cyborg: because? /j #kubuntu | 09:10 |

|---|
| ty | where is the setting for gnome panel stored for each user? | 09:10 |
|---|

|---|
| bullgard4 | unop: What is the function of the process 'kacpi_notify' which sometimes is active on my Ubuntu 7.10? | 09:12 |

|---|
| hischild | math: you're welcome. | 09:12 |

| Cyborg | ntfs-3g, libfuse2 and fuse | 09:14 |
|---|
| hischild | Cyborg: Ubuntu can read ntfs partitions just fine, thank you. | 09:14 |
|---|
| RedScare | sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /media/windows/ -o force | 09:14 |
|---|
| Cyborg | these 3 programs | 09:14 |
|---|
| Cyborg | RedScare: before u paste commands u may tell me if i have that programs | 09:14 |
|---|
| unop_ | bullgard4, judging from it's name, i'd say it is a kernel process, related to ACPI, can't say exactly what tho | 09:14 |
|---|
| Cyborg | :) | 09:14 |
|---|
| unop_ | Cyborg, what version of ubuntu are you on? | 09:14 |

| Cyborg | tell me the command | 09:14 |
|---|
| Cyborg | for version | 09:15 |

| DarkJustice | RedScare: yeah I got the HD mounted with no issues, but it's when I reboot, I read I needed to add a command in fstab | 09:15 |
|---|
| Cyborg | lbs_licence -a ? | 09:15 |
|---|
| unop_ | Cyborg, and don't cross-post in channels, it's not polite | 09:15 |

|---|
| Lin1 | hischild: give him the cmdz to run in the terminal | 09:15 |
|---|
| unop_ | Cyborg, lsb_release -a | 09:15 |

|---|
| Cyborg | hello | 09:16 |
|---|
| DarkJustice | Cyborg: it's NOT going to mount unless you get ntfs-3g | 09:16 |
|---|
| unop_ | Cyborg, sudo aptitude install ntfs-3g # and try again | 09:16 |
|---|
| Cyborg | i want to mount a ntfs partition | 09:16 |
|---|
| Cyborg | DarkJustice: read about it but i need some programs + ntfs-3g | 09:17 |
|---|
| unop_ | . o 0 ( troll ?? ) | 09:17 |
|---|
| Cyborg | tell me exactly what programs | 09:17 |
|---|
| Cyborg | ntfs-3g, libfuse2 ? | 09:17 |
|---|
| Cyborg | ntfs-3g, libfuse2 and fuse ? | 09:17 |
|---|
| hischild | Cyborg: you've been told multiple times. Please don't come back here untill you've done what you've been suggested. | 09:17 |
|---|
| DarkJustice | Cyborg: no you don't... you need to go to command prompt and type sudo get-apt install ntfs-3g... that will get it and install it | 09:17 |
|---|
| unop_ | Cyborg, just install this dude and be done with all this foolery. sudo aptitude install ntfs-3g | 09:17 |
|---|
| alan_m | cyborg, try putting the command unop_ just gave you in a terminal, go to applications->accessories->terminal and type in sudo aptitude install ntfs-3g | 09:18 |
|---|
| Cyborg | k | 09:18 |
|---|
| DarkJustice | I just went through that myself Cyborg, now I just can't get it to automount on reboot | 09:18 |
|---|
| Cyborg | but if ntfs-3g will request for other programs what i can do to unop_ ? | 09:18 |
|---|
| Lin1 | to all helping Cyborg: cant he just installubuntu/kubuntu 8.04?? and problems are bye bye | 09:19 |
|---|
| unop_ | Cyborg, install them all! | 09:19 |
|---|
| Cyborg | unop_: if u told me from the first what i can to to mount a ntfs partition it was just fine | 09:19 |
|---|
| unop_ | Lin1, 8.04 isnt officially supported, so thats a 'problem' in here | 09:19 |
|---|
| RedScare | my vista x86 drive was auto mounting just fine until i instructed gnome to not show on desktop | 09:19 |
|---|
| pajamian | cyberjames: if it needs other programs it will automatically install them too. | 09:19 |
|---|
| RedScare | wild | 09:19 |
|---|
| Lin1 | fine 7.10 | 09:19 |
|---|
| alan_m | lin1, 8.04 is beta and not yet supported, so....if we tell him to do that and he has more problems than originally stated, were..stuck. | 09:19 |
|---|
| pajamian | errrr Cyborg | 09:19 |
|---|
| RedScare | does 8.04 have better power management? | 09:20 |
|---|
| unop_ | Cyborg, i've been trying to help you but you've just been doing what you like .. | 09:20 |
|---|
| Cyborg | nop | 09:20 |

| Cyborg | i ask | 09:23 |
|---|
| Cyborg | nothing happens | 09:23 |

| [[thufir]] | how do you start phpmyadmin? | 09:23 |
|---|
| RedScare | you need to set it, or don't actually, you're better off not | 09:23 |

| Cyborg | so can somebody help me here ? | 09:23 |
|---|
| pajamian | !root | DarkJustice | 09:23 |
|---|
| ubotu | DarkJustice: 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 | 09:23 |
|---|
| alan_m | cyborg, we tried, you dont understand us, we cant explain it any simpler | 09:24 |
|---|
| DarkJustice | ubotu: right I read about that and figured I could just use sudo for everything | 09:24 |
|---|
| DarkJustice | oops | 09:24 |

| alan_m | Darkjustice, ubotu is a bot, it wont hold a conversation. | 09:24 |

| === drtm is now known as eth01 |
| pajamian | DarkJustice: if you really need root then: sudo su - | 09:24 |
|---|
| unop_ | pajamian, sudo -i .. is better | 09:24 |
|---|
| Cyborg | alan_m: i understood but tell me what i must install for mounting a ntfs partition | 09:24 |
|---|
| hsa | hello Cyborg & everybody.. first of all did any of you asked Cyborg what is the error msg he gets when wanna mount the ntfs? | 09:25 |
|---|
| DarkJustice | pajamian: no I just was explaining to RedScare that I log in as a user because there is no root "pass" by default, he asked how I logged in | 09:25 |
|---|
| RedScare | but if you gedit the contents of fstab and they are in tact like you say | 09:25 |
|---|
| alan_m | cyborg, we have told you numerous times, you refuse to pay attention buddy. | 09:25 |
|---|
| yiliu137 | hello | 09:25 |
|---|
| unop_ | hsa, he wont even try that :) | 09:25 |
|---|
| Cyborg | u don't told me | 09:25 |
|---|
| Cyborg | i just want to install all i need and then mount | 09:25 |
|---|
| Cyborg | is so hard to understand ? | 09:25 |
|---|
| hsa | but you have to man, so we can analyze! | 09:25 |
|---|
| DarkJustice | Cyborg: listen, I JUST went thru this.... yesterday.. go to a terminal and type this ...... sudo get-apt ntfs-3g install | 09:26 |
|---|
| Cyborg | k | 09:26 |
|---|
| pajamian | unop_: I didn't know about that, thanks. Looks like it does the same thing. | 09:26 |
|---|
| unop_ | DarkJustice, err no .. wrong syntax | 09:26 |
|---|
| hischild | hsa: no we have not. It won't be of any help. He refuses to pay attention to our suggestions. | 09:26 |

|---|
| pajamian | DarkJustice: ahhh, ok | 09:26 |
|---|
| RedScare | Dark, this may be a stupid question, but you're not commenting out that ntfs mount line are you | 09:27 |
|---|
| SpaT | the /sysmlink does not get created | 09:27 |
|---|
| pajamian | DarkJustice: you mean apt-get | 09:27 |
|---|
| unop_ | pajamian, sudo -i is equivalent to sudo su | 09:27 |
|---|
| hsa | carry on Cyborg | 09:27 |

| pajamian | Cyborg: you need ntfs-3g as many have already said, but your version of ubuntu doesn't supply it, so you need to do a bit mroe work to get it going. Read the info at the link unop_ gave you it is the best help you will get. | 09:34 |
|---|
| Michae1 | you can | 09:34 |
|---|
| corza | hischild: No problem man, I fixed the problem before - no freezing now - just the monitor wont display anything after the loading | 09:34 |
|---|
| Michae1 | but | 09:34 |
|---|
| softtower | my X session just froze... | 09:34 |
|---|
| unop_ | hischild, i'm way past understanding .. i sympathise totally :) | 09:35 |
|---|
| hsa | ok if you have ntfs-3g installed it will install all other things you need.. just check whether it's installed | 09:35 |
|---|
| Cyborg | pajamian: 10x for tip what programs do i need +ntfs-3g ? | 09:35 |
|---|
| softtower | Before that I asked a question: how come "Private Chat" feature on IRC isn't working? I tried answering several people's questions using it, but nothing happened? | 09:35 |
|---|
| meorero | join #ubuntu-il | 09:35 |
|---|
| corza | hischild: i was using an LD, hence the "Image not Support" error, But i tried an old monnitor and it just displays a black screen | 09:35 |

| hischild | softtower: i answered your Q | 09:35 |
|---|
| corza | LCD* | 09:35 |
|---|
| hischild | Cyborg: Q.Q | 09:35 |
|---|
| unop_ | hsa, dude, you're as bad as he is .. dapper _does_ not include ntfs-3g he needs to manually install it -- get him to read the link i posted up there and close this chapter, easy | 09:35 |
|---|
| pajamian | Cyborg: just read the page that unop_ linked to. | 09:35 |

| Michae1 | maybe someday we will have PC with A.I. and some of the problems will just....go away | 09:36 |
|---|
| Cyborg | what are these programs ? | 09:36 |
|---|
| pajamian | Cyborg: it will all be explained in the link | 09:36 |

|---|
| Cyborg | pajamian: libfuse2 and fuse will help me to work just fine with ntfs-3g ? | 09:37 |
|---|
| hischild | corza: old screens just go black when getting an unsupported mode. | 09:37 |
|---|
| hsa | unop_ i'm sorry.. but i started with ubuntu just from 7.04 | 09:37 |

| unop | hsa, it's ok, just get him to read the link please .. this is way past annoying now | 09:38 |
|---|
| hsa | i've no idea about the older versions | 09:38 |
