| omar | Anywayz, thanks to all of you! | 00:00 |
|---|
| Survivorman | togoella, did you sudo apt-get update? | 00:00 |
|---|
| hellonull | tim167: if you want a gui, use gftp, you can find it in synaptic | 00:00 |
|---|
| alperkanat | binarical-app: i'm running django's bundled server on my ubuntu box now... and trying to forward the external port to this machine's 8000. port | 00:00 |
|---|
| nickrud | togoella then sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-plugin | 00:00 |
|---|
| togoella | done nickrud | 00:00 |
|---|
| omar | But one more thing, what was that command used to locate the trash? | 00:00 |
|---|
| nickrud | togoella look just above your line | 00:00 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | omar: to locate it, or to use root to delete it? | 00:01 |
|---|
| togoella | ok it is loading | 00:01 |
|---|
| togoella | thank you so much guys | 00:01 |
|---|
| nickrud | IndyGunFreak he's on edgy | 00:01 |
|---|
| togoella | is my first time using linux ubuntu | 00:01 |
|---|
| * togoella smiles | 00:01 |
| IndyGunFreak | ah.. gotcha. | 00:01 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | why?..lol | 00:01 |
|---|
| nickrud | togoella enjoy :) | 00:01 |
|---|
| omar | IndyGunFreak: locate it | 00:01 |
|---|
| togoella | I like it a lot | 00:02 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | omar: well trash, all you have to do is open your home folder, click View/Show HIdden files, then go down to ./Trash, and double click it | 00:02 |
|---|
| Thib_ | I hate when this happens | 00:02 |
|---|
| togoella | While it loads, can someone tell me if there is any way to play windows games on ubuntu :D ? | 00:02 |
|---|
| nickrud | omar sudo updatedb && locate Trash (updatedb only has to be run when there're new files to be indexed, and is run daily by default) | 00:02 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | togoella: sometimes | 00:02 |
|---|
| Thib_ | I bought a new laptop and of course all its hardware is basically too recent to work with anything | 00:02 |
|---|
| nickrud | !wine | togoella (but it's crack) | 00:02 |
|---|
| ubotu | togoella (but it's crack): WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility. | 00:02 |
|---|
| omar | nickrud: Yes thanks! That's what I was looking for! ;) | 00:02 |
|---|
| towlie_ | whats the name of the unix based app that formats your c++ code | 00:02 |
|---|
| deniz__ | yo can sum1 plz help me share a dial-up connection (i did the hosting on a windows xp comp) but how do i do the client on an ubuntu 7.04 laptop? | 00:03 |
|---|
| togoella | yeah I read about wine | 00:03 |
|---|
| togoella | !appbd | 00:03 |
|---|
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about appbd - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 00:03 |
|---|
| tim167 | hellonull: ok, the ftp command mput only puts files inside the cwd, not folders is there a way to make it put folders too ? | 00:03 |
|---|
| nickrud | that's the place to look, alright | 00:03 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | !appdb | togoella almost... | 00:03 |
|---|
| ubotu | togoella almost...: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org | 00:03 |

| pirattrev | how do i test if my nick is registered? | 00:04 |
|---|
| StPatrick | Does ubuntu support compiz? | 00:04 |
|---|
| GIn | deniz__: how is the laptop connected to the xp machine? | 00:04 |
|---|
| binarical-app | alperkanat: you will have to let incomming connections connect to this port. to do so you must edit a .conf file that partains to your application. in my experiance , i had to edit a .conf file to allow http access to my home server.....if you wait a bit i might be able to help you some more | 00:04 |
|---|
| Survivorman | pirattrev, did you get my pm? | 00:04 |
|---|
| Survivorman | you're registered | 00:05 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | StPatrick: ubuntu supports it fine, its wether your video device supports it, is the question | 00:05 |
|---|
| nickrud | StPatrick yes | 00:05 |
|---|
| alperkanat | binarical-app: ok | 00:05 |
|---|
| deniz__ | GIn, thru a wired router (I think i have the router set up properly but I am not 100% sure) | 00:05 |
|---|
| togoella | awesome fs2004 works :D | 00:05 |
|---|
| pirattrev | thanks survivorman | 00:05 |
|---|
| Survivorman | pirattrev, you're very welcome | 00:05 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | pirattrev: you should see on the main freenode page, assuming you're using xchat/xchat-gnome, it will say "this nick is registered", | 00:05 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | or something like that | 00:05 |
|---|
| StPatrick | LoL, Im using it in Mandriva right now. | 00:05 |
|---|
| deniz__ | quick compiling questiom: do u need to extract a tar.bz2 b4 working on it or not? | 00:05 |
|---|
| StPatrick | Does anyone know how to get a Realtek RTL 8187b to work in Ubuntu? | 00:06 |
|---|
| togoella | how do I install it? apt-get install wine , ? | 00:06 |
|---|
| pirattrev | yeah, i'm using gnome-xchat | 00:06 |
|---|
| GIn | deniz__: if your inetrnet connection is on the xp machine, I think you need a switch. Does the router have dhcp build into it? | 00:06 |
|---|
| hellonull | tim167: good question, i'm not sure | 00:06 |
|---|
| odder | togoella: and there's cedega as well, you can get a free (no cost, I mean) version from their SVN | 00:06 |
|---|
| nickrud | togoella yes. Or, you can use system->admin->synaptic for a nice tool. ctl-f opens a search box | 00:06 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | pirattrev: when you log back in next time, you'll see where it says "this nick is registered, if its your nick.." something like that | 00:06 |
|---|
| odder | !cedega | togoella | 00:06 |
|---|
| ubotu | togoella: cedega is a project based on WINE, aimed at running Windows games on Linux. For more info, see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/Cedega | 00:06 |
|---|
| togoella | odder: what's cedega? | 00:06 |
|---|
| deniz__ | GIn, i have no idea all i can tell u is its a d-link DI-604 | 00:06 |
|---|
| odder | togoella: ^^ :) | 00:06 |
|---|
| pirattrev | ok, thanks again | 00:06 |
|---|
| tim167 | hellonull: ok, I'll install gftp and see if that brings me luck ... | 00:06 |
|---|
| mysterycool | omg | 00:07 |
|---|
| hellonull | tim167: i would stick with gftp for that, i'm sure there's a way with terminal-based ftp but i am not aware of it | 00:07 |
|---|
| deniz__ | GIn, i have dial-up internet | 00:07 |
|---|
| togoella | thanks odder :D | 00:07 |
|---|
| togoella | let's see | 00:07 |
|---|
| nickrud | tim167 you might want to look at lftp , it's a package that installs a client that supports folders (iirc) | 00:07 |
|---|
| mysterycool | if i did ./configure then make and then make install to actuallyget grub working did i mess up the bootloader of ubuntu??! :S | 00:07 |
|---|
| deniz__ | GIn, i got the hosting right and on microsofts help website it says to do things on a client comp and on the wizard it says to do stuff like floppy or xp cd to it but its not windows the client its ubuntu so im stuck | 00:07 |
|---|
| nickrud | mysterycool you certainly replaced parts of it, whether it's messed up, well .... | 00:07 |
|---|
| mysterycool | *to actually get GRUB working did I mess up the boot loader of Ubuntu??! :s | 00:08 |
|---|
| mysterycool | oh | 00:08 |
|---|
| togoella | wait wait wait | 00:08 |
|---|
| togoella | is wine free? | 00:08 |
|---|
| charles|64 | hey room | 00:08 |
|---|
| mysterycool | nickrud: which means...? :S | 00:08 |
|---|
| odder | togoella: as in freedom | 00:08 |
|---|
| GIn | deniz__: I think you need a switch and not a router with modem buidlin it | 00:08 |
|---|
| togoella | because Cedega is not :| | 00:08 |
|---|
| Thib_ | I wish | 00:08 |
|---|
| Devrethman | Anybody care to take a look at this http://pastebin.ca/973130 and see if they can see what's up | 00:08 |
|---|
| Thib_ | oh you mean the software ;-) | 00:08 |
|---|
| Devrethman | cause it looks to me like everything's going fine, then it juse aborts | 00:08 |
|---|
| Devrethman | for no apparent reason | 00:08 |
|---|
| nickrud | yes. togoella | 00:08 |
|---|
| Survivorman | tim167, xcopy moves files and folders i think | 00:08 |
|---|
| * Thib_ wishes wine made from grapes was free | 00:08 |
| GIn | deniz__: you are connected to the internet through a dialup on the xp machine right? | 00:09 |
|---|
| deniz__ | GIn, ya | 00:09 |
|---|
| togoella | nickrud: then I don't want cedega anymore lol, that's why I thought about linux as open source... | 00:09 |
|---|
| togoella | HAHAH | 00:09 |
|---|
| GIn | deniz__: and you have internet sharing setup on the xp machine? | 00:09 |
|---|
| GIn | deniz__: then you need a switch | 00:09 |
|---|
| nickrud | mysterycool you did the compile, you can test it with a reboot (or do sudo apt-get remove --purge grub && sudo apt-get install grub ) | 00:09 |
|---|
| nickrud | togoella it is, cedega has some proprietary bits | 00:09 |
|---|
| deniz__ | GIn, i have ubuntu also so if i could share using ubuntu and a router tell me plz and firestarter doesnt work | 00:09 |
|---|
| GIn | deniz__: I don't know if it is also possible with that dlink router. hang on | 00:09 |
|---|
| mysterycool | nickrud: if i remove wont the bootloader of ubuntu be removed? :S | 00:09 |
|---|
| tim167 | Survivorman: ok thanks for the suggestion, i just started the transfer with gftp though, works too... | 00:09 |
|---|
| deniz__ | GIn, k | 00:09 |
|---|
| StPatrick | Everyone, I have great news | 00:10 |
|---|
| hellonull | haha Devrethman, nice update command | 00:10 |
|---|
| nickrud | mysterycool that's why you immediately reinstall | 00:10 |
|---|
| StPatrick | I'm installing Ubuntu!!! | 00:10 |
|---|
| HangukMiguk | ok, i think i figured out why my aac files aren't working, but i have a question, is there any way possible to backtrack in repository and install older versions of packages? | 00:10 |
|---|
| mysterycool | nickrud: what do u mean immediately reinstall? :S | 00:10 |
|---|
| togoella | ok first need I to download wine? right? cedega is like a plugin or im awrong | 00:10 |
|---|
| nickrud | mysterycool look at the complete command I gave you | 00:10 |
|---|
| GIn | deniz__: connect your laptop to the modem first | 00:10 |
|---|
| nickrud | togoella no. you either get cedega or wine | 00:10 |
|---|
| GIn | deniz__: do you know how to use the terminal? | 00:11 |
|---|
| mysterycool | nickrud: and are u sure it's going to work? :S | 00:11 |
|---|
| hexoroid | anybody good with named ? | 00:11 |
|---|
| togoella | Cedega is a proprietary product, that must be purchased (currently $5.00 per month with a 3 month minimum initial purchase) | 00:11 |
|---|
| GIn | deniz__: I mean the router | 00:11 |
|---|
| Devrethman | hellonull:Yeah, it was a joke, he was like "why can't I just say "upgrade mah shit" and make it go" | 00:11 |
|---|
| SeveredCross | HangukMiguk: Why do you need to downgrade? | 00:11 |
|---|
| togoella | why do you keep saying is free :| | 00:11 |
|---|
| deniz__ | GIn, wait, connect my laptop to the modem??? how is that possible?? I have a winmodem with dell's driver for it even tho its not a dell comp | 00:11 |
|---|
| SeveredCross | AAC works fine for me in Gutsy and in Hardy | 00:11 |
|---|
| Boohbah | togoella: cedega is a distribution of wine with proprietary directx layer and it costs money | 00:11 |
|---|
| nickrud | mysterycoolI've fixed my system with with that command more than once ;) | 00:11 |
|---|
| GIn | deniz__: I mean the router | 00:11 |
|---|
| GIn | ;) | 00:11 |
|---|
| mysterycool | nickrud: oh lol good, k then :D | 00:11 |
|---|
| mysterycool | ;) | 00:11 |
|---|
| mysterycool | :D | 00:11 |
|---|
| togoella | I see | 00:12 |
|---|
| Boohbah | hexoroid: what's up with named? | 00:12 |
|---|
| odder | Boohbah: the SVN version costs $0 | 00:12 |
|---|
| HangukMiguk | ServedCross: libfaad2-0 is a cvs version, i need an earlier version to work with gstreamer | 00:12 |
|---|
| deniz__ | GIn, the laptop and desktop r connected to the router, ask me questions to c if its connected properly | 00:12 |
|---|
| SeveredCross | HangukMiguk: Hmm. | 00:12 |
|---|
| GIn | deniz__: do you know how to use the terminal? | 00:12 |
|---|
| SeveredCross | That's odd. AAC worked in Gutsy just fine, works in Hardy now too. | 00:12 |
|---|
| Boohbah | togoella: <odder> Boohbah: the SVN version costs $0 - so, you can compile it if you want.... | 00:12 |
|---|
| odder | togoella: you can get the SVN version of cedega for free, but I'm not sure if it's free software | 00:12 |
|---|
| SeveredCross | I just installed ubuntu-restricted-extras. | 00:12 |
|---|
| togoella | how do I open a new server window on xchat? | 00:12 |
|---|
| Devrethman | togella: IRC->connect | 00:13 |
|---|
| deniz__ | GIn, well im not a genius but i can use things like repositoriy downloading and using imagemagick | 00:13 |
|---|
| HangukMiguk | ServedCross: AAC works fine in everything except for gstreamer programs | 00:13 |
|---|
| mysterycool | nickrud: thank you :D | 00:13 |
|---|
| nickrud | togoella xchat->network listing, pick one and click connect button | 00:13 |
|---|
| togoella | thanks | 00:13 |
|---|
| mysterycool | niickrud: going to reboot and check if it's working :S | 00:13 |
|---|
| GIn | deniz__: open the terminal and type ifconfig in. you should see something like eth1 or eth0 . like that | 00:13 |
|---|
| mysterycool | *nickrud: going to reboot and check if it's working :S | 00:13 |
|---|
| mysterycool | wish me luck all! :D | 00:14 |
|---|
| mysterycool | thanks all ;) | 00:14 |

| binarical-app | alperkanat: in the specific instance i needed to configure :/etc/apach2/ports.conf like "Listen 127.0.0.1:80" originally this file comes without the :80 , meaning that the ip address is allowed, however pot 80 where a browser needs to connect could not. i needed to manually configure this file so that port 80 (for http) would be accepted | 00:14 |
|---|
| mysterycool | like in a bit | 00:14 |

| togoella | RoAkSoAx: thanks | 00:26 |

| hellonull | togoella, well first you need a windows program (.exe) to run | 00:26 |
|---|
| deniz__ | GIn, well on the part were its spose to get internet i connected it to my ethernet port on my mobo hoping to transmit dial-up to it | 00:26 |

| Frogger626 | friedtofu: I can't get grub to allow Windows to boot. | 00:26 |

|---|
| tyuio | when u plug a usb device how linux detect the device and give the correct drivers ? | 00:26 |
|---|
| hellonull | togoella: if you do torrents, i would recommend instlaling utorrent under wine, as it will give you experience and come in handy too | 00:26 |

| deniz__ | GIn, wat about doing it wireleslly? i have a airlink 101 wireless card in desktop and D-Link DWl-G122 usb adapter | 00:27 |
|---|
| softtower | regexp | 00:27 |
|---|
| GIn | deniz__: no, a router does not works like that, not the d-link one | 00:27 |
|---|
| icesword | Frogger626, windows cannot boot or linux? | 00:27 |
|---|
| hvgotcodes | hey should i recompile the stock kernel? | 00:27 |
|---|
| GIn | deniz__: if the desktop one can acts as an access point, yes, you can share using that setup. | 00:27 |
|---|
| hvgotcodes | meaning: is it lik 386 only and would there be benefit from recompiling? | 00:27 |
|---|
| hellonull | togoella, wine "path", where path will start with c: | 00:27 |
|---|
| miko3k | hi ... is there any way to fix the splash screen during bootup ? coz it freezes and only way out is alt+f1 ... | 00:27 |
|---|
| deniz__ | GIn, wat setup? the wireless one i suggested? | 00:27 |
|---|
| GIn | deniz__: but it's much complicated with a switch. | 00:27 |
|---|
| Frogger626 | icesword: I can boot linux, what I'm in now. At least, off the CD. I have not attempted a partition. No, I cannot run Windows. | 00:28 |
|---|
| GIn | deniz__: yep, the wireless one | 00:28 |
|---|
| deniz__ | GIn, i can do it with only wat i have??? | 00:28 |
|---|
| hellonull | togoella: or another drive letter | 00:28 |

| GIn | deniz__: note that not all wireless cards can act as a accesspoint | 00:28 |

|---|
| deniz__ | GIn, my desktop is 7.10 and laptop 7.04 i hope thats not a problem | 00:28 |
|---|
| hellonull | togoella: it is easiest to just get your .exe (if it is an installer) on the desktop and double click it, it will autmatically launch it in wine | 00:28 |
|---|
| GIn | deniz__: if you can make your win xp pc as an accesspoint, it will be easy | 00:28 |
|---|
| togoella | hellonull: isn't working like that | 00:29 |

| togoella | if I use wine file.exe show me | 00:29 |

| Frogger626 | BRB with any luck | 00:34 |
|---|
| ellsworth | but there doesn't appear to be a "network setup" | 00:34 |
|---|
| GIn | deniz__: but anyway, the easy way to setup a network sharing a dialup connection on the cp machine is suing a switch | 00:34 |
|---|
| deniz__ | bod_, download cinelerra, more than that i dont no | 00:35 |
|---|
| bod_ | cheers | 00:35 |
|---|

| * binarical-app run dru run | 00:35 |
| deniz__ | GIn, then ill worry bout ndiswrapper etc another time | 00:35 |
|---|
| Scunizi | ellsworth, if you're going to use xchat install the version without the -gnome.. you'll have more features. | 00:36 |
|---|
| ellsworth | that chan seems to be dead | 00:36 |

|---|
| GIn | deniz__: o.k try to put the wireless card in windows xp as an accesspoint then | 00:36 |
|---|
| emma | ellsworth, yes I use xchat. I think it is excellent. | 00:36 |
|---|
| Scunizi | ellsworth, sure.. as backup you might also consider irssi which works on the commandline/terminal.. just in case your gui bombs for some reason you'll still be able to connect and get help | 00:37 |
|---|
| togoella | hellonull: yeah is on the desktop | 00:37 |
|---|
| emma | there is also a channel for #xchat but I thought you had your heart set on xchat-gnome which is not the same thing | 00:37 |
|---|
| ellsworth | got it thnx | 00:37 |
|---|
| binarical-app | ellsworth: can you give us some more infromation on the subject , have you googled you problem, prespectivly perhaps there is an alternative solution to your previous setup | 00:37 |

|---|
| binarical-app | alperkanat: have you set it on your router? do you know how to do that ? your router has an ip , enter this ip into your browser then enter the login stuff then you should be able to find you way from there..... forward your needed port | 00:38 |

| togoella | hellonull: says is already installed | 00:43 |

| binarical-app | yes neither can I :P | 00:43 |
|---|
| Scunizi | andreferreira_, not much in the way of that outside of NVU and the kde version (forgot the name but it was a fork of nvu) .. screem and bluefish are mostly hand coding.. but with lots of features | 00:43 |

| Paddy_EIRE | forrest: as I said previously.. :) | 00:43 |

| heartsblood | nickrud, I just wanted to let you know, in case anybody else asks, the 10 minute period between crashes was significant. It turns out that the screen saver was the culprit, but only causes problems in compiz. I don't know why yet, but disabling the screen saver allows me to run full screen GL apps with compiz running without crashes. | 00:52 |

|---|
| andreferreira_ | hughs to you ppl | 00:59 |

| togoella | how do I Install the icons? | 01:00 |
|---|
| Scunizi | chapocer1, you have a firewire ipod? I thought they were all usb. | 01:00 |
|---|
| bogdement | my question is simple : what can i use to delete partition of linux and not destroy mbr partition because i want to run windows | 01:00 |
|---|
| Waterloo | emma: yeah i got the link and looked into it. Then my laptop monitor itself didn't work so I am restarting Live CD in safe graphics mode | 01:00 |
|---|
| Paddy_EIRE | chapocer1: I'm yet to hear of or see a firewire ipod?? | 01:00 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | StPatrick, i notice that guide is missing the point that you NEED to INSTALL the C compiler stuff to compile the drivers.. | 01:00 |
|---|
| GIn | lol | 01:01 |
|---|
| StPatrick | the huh? | 01:01 |
|---|
| emma | I'm not sure if that link directly helps. I am not sure if what you are doing is the same as what what was talking about. | 01:01 |
|---|
| chapocer1 | Scunizi, its a first gen ipod.. im kickin it old school... if i can get ubuntu to recognize it, its going to get partitioned up and treated as a very crappy external hard drive | 01:01 |
|---|
| Scunizi | bogdement, if you are going to install windows it will take over the entire drive and wipe out most everything.. if you want it to. | 01:01 |
|---|
| emma | They had dual monitors and it talked about setting the default one. | 01:01 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | StPatrick, you will at least be wanting to install the C compiler :) otherwise you are not going to be compiling any code at all. | 01:01 |
|---|
| StPatrick | =/ | 01:01 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | StPatrick, install the build-essential package. | 01:01 |

|---|
| StPatrick | build-essential backage.. where can i get that? | 01:01 |
|---|
| friedtofu | togoella? icons theme? | 01:01 |
|---|
| togoella | yes | 01:01 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | StPatrick, its in the package manager same as everything else is. | 01:01 |
|---|
| bogdement | and i dont want to broke windows or mbr | 01:01 |
|---|
| Adry | the Open office's menu has an rare font (shapes, circles...). how can I fix it? | 01:02 |
|---|
| Scunizi | chapocer1, ah.. still thought it was usb.. but it might be seen by gparted.. sudo apt-get install gparted. then sudo gparted to run it. | 01:02 |
|---|
| friedtofu | togoella: extract the files and put it in your ~/.themes folder | 01:02 |

|---|
| friedtofu | togoella: extract the files and put it in your ~/.icons folder | 01:02 |
|---|
| Waterloo | emma: no :OD I am trying to get a sick laptop to use another monitor as its ONLY visual source...linux like to autodetect the monitors and it wants to pick the broken one. | 01:02 |
|---|
| emma | Adry - what do you mean? | 01:02 |
|---|
| friedtofu | yeah... second one - ~/.icons folder | 01:02 |
|---|
| StPatrick | Dr_willis, What is sudo? | 01:02 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | StPatrick, if you are so new you dont know how to isntall anything under ubuntu. I suggest reading some of the ubutnu starter guides then. | 01:02 |
|---|
| togoella | where is the ~/.icons folder? | 01:02 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | StPatrick, sudo is a command you use in the shell. | 01:02 |
|---|
| chapocer1 | Scunizi, Ubuntu just isn't even recognizing that i have a firewire driver, it seems. | 01:02 |
|---|
| friedtofu | it'll be in /home/yourname/.icons - and if it isnt there make it | 01:02 |
|---|
| Adry | emma, I can't read the menu because the font is strange | 01:02 |
|---|
| StPatrick | Dr_willis, k, gimme a sec. let me see if i can figure out what your talking about. | 01:03 |
|---|
| Scunizi | Waterloo, if you have another computer you could MAYBE ssh into it and reconfigure for dual monitors.. | 01:03 |
|---|
| friedtofu | with mkdir ~/.icons | 01:03 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | StPatrick, also the ubuntu book at ---> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Training?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=instructor.pdf | 01:03 |

|---|
| emma | Adry - Espanol? | 01:05 |
|---|
| Scunizi | boxybrown, easy.. partimage will mirror the partition and allow you to put it back on the new drive .. then you'll have to go in with parted or gparted and "expand" the partition. | 01:05 |
|---|
| Adry | yes | 01:05 |

| Jordan_U | bogdement, Are you trying to make Windows smaller to make room for Ubuntu or get rid of Ubuntu to make more room for windows? | 01:07 |
|---|
| nickrud | bogdement not sure what you mean, you want to remove ubuntu and give the space back to windows? | 01:07 |
|---|
| Scunizi | bogdement, so you're getting rid of Ubuntu... and you wan't to use the empty space for windows.. I suggest joining ##windows and ask there since you'll be using windows tools. If grub is still installed they can help reinstall the win MBR | 01:07 |

|---|
| Waterloo | ubuntu to install | 01:08 |
|---|
| emma | Waterloo, I think in order to change the monitor you have to edit the x.org conf file. | 01:08 |
|---|
| StPatrick | Jordan_U, Im not sure how to get that information, but someone else told me it's a Realtek RTL8187b, and the chipset is RTL8187 | 01:08 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | hischild, go for it. :) i couldent get the stuff to compile. of course I dont even have a wireless card. i was just testing it for him. | 01:08 |

|---|
| Scunizi | Waterloo, from the terminal you can usually find out by typing lspci which lists all devices connected to the pci buss. | 01:10 |
|---|
| StPatrick | hischild, I am, however, using http://danmarner.blogspot.com/2008/01/rtl8187b-linux-native-driver-works-on.html as a reference link. | 01:10 |

| bobbo85 | Hi all, it seems that mplayer is changing the entire computer's volume for some reason. For example, if I'm listening to music in Amarok/Rhythmbox and watching a movie with mplayer - if I turn the volume down in mplayer, the music gets turned down too... what's the problem? | 01:16 |

| nickrud | bobbo85 you should ask in there, I've seen a lot of discussion about the new pulseaudio setup | 01:18 |
|---|
| bobbo85 | ok cool | 01:18 |

| bobbo85 | the reason i ask is this - I love VLC media player, and wish I could use it for all videos - the problem I've been having is that it takes forever to seek! If I try to skip ahead a few seconds, the video will freeze, the audio will continue, and when the video catches up a few seconds later, it's all distorted for a few seconds before returning to normal - mplayer doesn't seem to have this problem | 01:19 |
|---|
| Scunizi | StPatrick, hischild I just googled the model number he posted. | 01:20 |
|---|
| bobbo85 | is there any way to make VLC "seek" instantly like other media players? | 01:20 |
|---|
| StPatrick | Scunizi, Nice... I did that too.. didnt get that page.. | 01:20 |
|---|
| Scunizi | StPatrick, top link :) | 01:20 |

| hischild | Scunizi, alright thanks. | 01:21 |
|---|
| StPatrick | not when i searched, lol | 01:21 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | bobbo85, iv noticed a lot of that depends on the exact video codec/format. but i tend touse gmplayer mainly now a days | 01:21 |
|---|
| StPatrick | hischild, Uhh pastebinit is not listed in add/remove | 01:21 |
|---|
| StPatrick | but still, http://pastebin.ca/973259 | 01:21 |
|---|
| bobbo85 | Dr_willis, what video players do you have/recommend? and has anyone tried "Beep" yet? | 01:21 |
|---|
| hischild | StPatrick, might be so. Use synaptic. And thanks | 01:21 |
|---|
| StPatrick | what's synaptic? | 01:21 |
|---|
| StPatrick | bobbo85, I HIGHLY reccomend VLC. | 01:22 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | bobbo85, beepmediaplayer is more of a audio player. not video | 01:22 |
|---|
| hischild | StPatrick, system -> administration -> synaptic | 01:22 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | bobbo85, vlc uses its own codec stuff I think. while gmplayer uses the w32codecs I belive is the main diff. | 01:22 |
|---|
| hischild | StPatrick, advanced version of the add/remove software thing. | 01:22 |
|---|
| Scunizi | StPatrick, just checked and it's in synaptic | 01:22 |
|---|
| StPatrick | hischild, Ok | 01:22 |
|---|
| Scunizi | StPatrick, use the search key and search for pastebin and you'll see it | 01:22 |
|---|
| hischild | StPatrick, while you're at it, search for this one and tell me if it has a green thing in front of it linux-restricted-modules-generic | 01:22 |

|---|
| Scunizi | Waterloo, you can do that.. just make room and be prepared to reinstall grub.. it get's wiped out.. on the other hand if you're not going to run any 3d games,, use VMWare server and put it there.. that avoids dual boot. | 01:24 |

| Dr_willis | bobbo85, kmplayer is the kde front end for mplayer, g is the gnome front end. smplayer is some other front end. | 01:25 |
|---|
| pyrak | Waterloo, grub is the bootloader. | 01:26 |
|---|
| hischild | PwrSurge, one way traffic from the server to the client isn't counted as active. | 01:26 |
|---|
| metbsd | i thought kmplayer is some player on windows | 01:26 |
|---|
| Scunizi | Waterloo, you probably don't see grub because there is not other os on the system.. it's a boot manager and lets you choose between different os installs. VMware server loads in Ubuntu and allows you to install windows "in a window" so you can run windows like any other program but totally isolated (virus protection). | 01:26 |
|---|
| DistroJockey | xfa: take a look at alsamixer in a terminal | 01:26 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | metbsd, not that ive seen.. thers mplayer for windows also. | 01:26 |

| hischild | StPatrick, you can just select the text i give you and middle mouse click on the terminal to paste it :-) | 01:27 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | metbsd, with workstation you cant make new virtual machines I belive. I always use the server | 01:27 |
|---|
| StPatrick | nothing from lsmod | grep ipw | 01:27 |

|---|
| IndyGunFreak | StPatrick: you can always also turn on logging, then just copy/paste at your leisure | 01:28 |
|---|
| hischild | Scunizi, the default pastebin is not this one unfortunately as for some reason it's incompatible so far. However it works by piping it info from a command. Try to cat a file and then add | pastebinit | 01:28 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | jblack, They work here for me. | 01:28 |
|---|

| Mystik7 | does anyone have a link that explains how to properly install firefox nightlies into 8.04? | 01:30 |
|---|
| StPatrick | Frustation, Is it the NFSMW Black edition? :P | 01:31 |
|---|
| niko_ | is the actual 8.05 out now? | 01:31 |
|---|
| hischild | StPatrick, ok. Another copy for you ==> sudo modprobe ipw3945 | 01:31 |
|---|
| Frustation | StPatrick: it's not good for me :( | 01:31 |
|---|
| niko_ | or still alpha or beta? | 01:31 |
|---|
| troxor | niko_: no | 01:31 |
|---|
| hischild | StPatrick, if it fails, type dmesg and pastebin me the last few lines. | 01:31 |
|---|
| niko_ | when will it be? | 01:31 |
|---|
| Frustation | StPatrick: it's too bad :( | 01:31 |
|---|
| GIn | Frustation: try with desktop effects off | 01:31 |

| Dr_willis | charles|64_, you may want to check out the fusesmb tools, instead of mountign the share, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FuseSmb | 01:31 |

| troxor | niko_: niko_ couple weeks | 01:31 |
|---|
| jblack | Ok. Found it. I had another copy of firefox running on another window. So, if people say they can't google, tell them to make sure they really closed firefox. ;) | 01:31 |
|---|
| Frustation | Gin i have do that | 01:31 |
|---|
| niko_ | ty | 01:31 |
|---|
| Scunizi | Waterloo, nope.. VMWare uses files to make windows think that it is in a normal drive partition.. so if you wanted to get rid of it.. you just delete the files and it's GONE. It will also let you install other OS's to try out | 01:31 |
|---|
| bobbo85 | Thanks Dr_willis I just installed Gmplayer, it's strange though it will open the movie (a .wmv file) but it wont play it just stays paused on whatever frame I seek to (and it says "playing") | 01:32 |
|---|
| niko_ | what improvements will tehre be? | 01:32 |

| Ltp0wer | newbie here, will I have a problem with my 8800GTX and drivers in ubuntu? | 01:32 |
|---|
| hischild | Ltp0wer, it should be fine | 01:32 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | bobbo85, i make it a point to not touch wmv files. :) they can be all sorts of weird-spyware-virusware codecs. | 01:32 |
|---|
| Ltp0wer | Sweet, thank you hischild | 01:32 |
|---|
| bobbo85 | The same file works slowly in VNC, is choppy and awful in "Movie player" but works perfectly in "mplayer" - i just can't control the sound without affecting all other sounds | 01:32 |
|---|
| Ltp0wer | But if you are wrong, I am going to complain and insult your mother | 01:32 |
|---|
| StPatrick | hischild, How do i use the pastebin thing i downloaded? | 01:32 |
|---|
| bobbo85 | Dr_willis, can I convert them to another video format? | 01:32 |
|---|
| Scunizi | Ltp0wer, on the current version (gutsy) you might have to install the nvidia binary driver.. on the next version coming out the end of this month it will more than likely be included. | 01:32 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | bobbo85, could try converting the video to some other format I guess. avidmux is the tool i use for that. or mencoder | 01:33 |
|---|
| hischild | StPatrick, add | pastebinit to the command you want to put on pastebin. To try ==> dmesg | pastebinit | 01:33 |
|---|

| StPatrick | http://paste.stgraber.org/2306 | 01:33 |

| Dr_willis | Ltp0wer, the restricted-manager tool installed them for me. | 01:33 |
|---|
| unocrash | hey all! | 01:33 |
|---|
| Scunizi | Ltp0wer, yes.. there's lots of how to's on how to install it.. read lots.. do once.. :) | 01:34 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Ltp0wer, should be an icon at the top right for it. | 01:34 |
|---|
| FnordPerfect | hi everybody! I fubar'd my installation by downgrading to gutsy. could someone lend a hand? it seems that the root partition does not get re-mounted rw during boot. | 01:34 |
|---|
| hischild | StPatrick, what error did it give you? | 01:34 |
|---|
| BysmuthMage | okay so I'm in the process of installing Ubuntu on an external hard drive. I disconnected the main drive just to make sure the install doesn't touch it. This has caused a (potential) problem: The external drive is now named sda instead of sdb. If I install this based on the external drive = sda and then reconnect the main drive, bumping the external drive to sdb, will there be a conflict, like in /etc/fstab? | 01:34 |
|---|
| Ltp0wer | Dr_willis, I am on vista right now | 01:34 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Ltp0wer, you have my sympathy. :) | 01:34 |
|---|
| StPatrick | hischild, ERROR: Could not find Intel PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection | 01:34 |
|---|
| Scunizi | Dr_willis, I don't think the restriced drivers manager has the 8800 included.. it came out after gutsy did if I remember correctly. | 01:34 |
|---|
| boxybrown | Ltp0wner mine to | 01:34 |
|---|
| hischild | BysmuthMage, ubuntu uses UUID's. It should be fine. | 01:34 |
|---|
| metbsd | Dr_willis: vmware workstation is better. vmware server turns on alot debug mode, so it's slower, | 01:34 |
|---|
| hischild | StPatrick, hmm ... seems like we have to get it somewhere else. Second please. | 01:35 |
|---|
| Devrethman | anybody have StepMania working on ubuntu? | 01:35 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Scunizi, i have an 8800 card here.. and it worked for my 8800GTSXXX card. | 01:35 |
|---|
| StPatrick | k | 01:35 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Scunizi, but youa re correct - it can depend on the exact 8800 card | 01:35 |
|---|
| Scunizi | metbsd, Dr_willis but vmware workstation is $'s.. server is Free | 01:35 |
|---|
| BysmuthMage | oh right... totally forgot about that I'm so used to the thumb drives borking themselves when I manually put them into /etc/fstab that I didn't even think about that | 01:35 |
|---|
| BysmuthMage | thanks | 01:35 |
|---|
| Scunizi | Dr_willis, oh.. didn't know that.. good to hear. | 01:35 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Scunizi, there is a free verison of both i thought | 01:35 |
|---|
| unocrash | when's hardy out? | 01:36 |
|---|
| coskund | heya | 01:36 |
|---|
| Scunizi | Dr_willis, I know server is free.. but thought workstation was a paid version.. check the site www.vmware.com | 01:36 |

| Mystik7 | I downloaded the firefox nightly today, untar it into /opt (which creates /opt/firefox) then chown -R root /opt/firefox, now I am confused on the firefox.sh script, it says the lib dir is in /usr/lib/firefox-3.0b4, do I need to change the shell script to point to /opt/firefox for the lib? | 01:36 |
|---|
| emma | I'm waiting to see a problem that I can possibly help with. :) | 01:36 |
|---|
| kitche | Scunizi: yeah workstation you have to pay for but most are starting to use server if they want to use workstation | 01:36 |

|---|
| Dr_willis | Scunizi, i always use the server version, so i rarely mess ith workstation | 01:37 |
|---|
| Scunizi | Dr_willis, just player in ther now. | 01:37 |

| pollito | -- To Pollito: just ask youe question here :) I'll be leaving now. Talk to me by pm here on IRC...gah | 01:37 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Scunizi, i must not understand how 'workstation' differes from 'player' then | 01:37 |
|---|
| StPatrick | bobbo85, Did you try VLC Media player? | 01:37 |
|---|
| unocrash | coskund: May We help you? | 01:37 |
|---|
| Devrethman | also, is there a quick and dirty configurator for NFS or some other form of linux-linux filesharing? | 01:37 |
|---|
| StPatrick | hischild, Yes, but ill still try it. | 01:37 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | bobbo85, run the program. read its docs/guides.. convert :) | 01:38 |

| FnordPerfect | I'm just sitting in front of the 80x25 text terminal that my ubuntu has become, and I am losing my mind... could *someone* | 01:38 |

|---|
| FnordPerfect | *help* ? | 01:38 |
|---|
| StPatrick | hischild, I have read over so many things that say I fixed it, or confirmed, or works, or whatever, and failed miserably.... | 01:38 |
|---|
| prettyricky | I suggest vlc player thats just my opinion, whats perfectly | 01:38 |
|---|
| bobbo85 | StPatrick, VLC media plays the file, but it will not seek - if i try to skip ahead at all, it "lags" for a few seconds at a time | 01:38 |
|---|
| Scunizi | Dr_willis, they may have renamed it player.. server allows you to install a full OS from cd instead of being locked into "appliances" | 01:38 |
|---|
| hischild | StPatrick, if you have help, you can always call at the channel. And this one seems fairly solid. | 01:38 |

| Dr_willis | Scunizi, that dosent make much sence they wouls charge for player,and give away server free. when it does everything the player does. | 01:38 |

|---|
| unocrash | [Rocc] | 01:40 |
|---|
| unocrash | whats the problem? | 01:40 |
|---|
| [Rocc] | Um, ok... i just downloaded the desktop version (7.10) and im trying to install it and i cant find where to install it at.... | 01:40 |
|---|
| niko_ | set to boot from cd in the bios | 01:40 |

| Dr_willis | [Rocc], you burnt the iso to cd.. booted it? see icons on the live-cd desktop? | 01:40 |
|---|
| Acomaco | how big is an integer normaly? its not 2^32? | 01:41 |
|---|
| [Rocc] | yeah, i burnt it... and i cant find the bios... | 01:41 |
|---|
| unocrash | [Rocc]: Boot to the CD. To do that depends on the computer. Dell usually has you hit the F12 key, while apple requires you to hit the c key i think. | 01:41 |
|---|
| niko_ | push delete during the bootup | 01:41 |

|---|
| osxdude|laptop | ugh | 01:43 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | [Rocc], do Not use the windows drag/drop to cd to burn method. | 01:43 |
|---|
| [Rocc] | i didnt | 01:43 |
|---|
| metbsd | using linux, my laptop webcam, card reader, and Fn keys don't work anymore | 01:43 |
|---|
| niko_ | use power iso or something | 01:43 |
|---|
| [Rocc] | i burnt it from a program | 01:43 |

| niko_ | as an iso | 01:44 |

| SlimG | Anyone here know of a Ubuntu(ish) WordPress theme (not Udienz's tango theme)? | 01:44 |

| mophead | stpatrick, that sounds dangerous. what happened? | 01:44 |
|---|
| rootlinuxusr | ultraiso is good | 01:44 |
|---|
| Mystik7 | I eated my cd | 01:44 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | [Rocc], you did it wrong then.. otherwise there wouldent be a single .iso on the cd. | 01:44 |
|---|
| [Rocc] | how many would there be then? | 01:45 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | [Rocc], several 1000+ files. | 01:45 |

| Mystik7 | Dr_willis: I am running latest test kernel, but I don't want to uninstall ndiswrpper just to see | 01:53 |

| DistroJockey | [Rocc]: so you can tell it to boot from cd, but it just isn't? | 01:53 |

|---|
| DistroJockey | [Rocc]: you didn't answer my question. And if you are speaking to me, you should put my name in the reply | 01:55 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | [Rocc], on some machines theres a real fast 'hit F10 (or other) to select boot disk' item. | 01:55 |
|---|
| DistroJockey | [Rocc]: ok, goto where you can change the boot order | 01:55 |
|---|
| Survivorman | style23, did you close your browser windows first, then open another instnace. | 01:56 |

| [Rocc] | DistroJockey, im there... | 01:56 |
|---|
| style23 | survivorman I restarted the computer | 01:56 |
|---|
| DistroJockey | [Rocc]: cool, you see something about booting? | 01:56 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | IndyGunFreak, esc here goes to the bios screen, F10 has its own 'select boot disk/cd/usb' menu :) which is handy | 01:56 |

|---|
| IndyGunFreak | rootlinuxusr: i'll tell you, nothing. | 01:57 |
|---|
| kitche | style23: anyways firefox 3 uses firefox-devel as the command to start it | 01:57 |
|---|
| [Rocc] | DistroJockey, I get Removable device, IDE Hard Drive, ATAPO CD-ROM, Other Boot Device... | 01:57 |
|---|
| DistroJockey | [Rocc]: when you do, put cd/dvd first then HDD second | 01:57 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | !ati | rootlinuxusr you need to get your ati driver working, the you can install compiz | 01:57 |

|---|
| Survivorman | you can install cedega for free through svn | 01:58 |
|---|
| kitche | style23: in the terminal | 01:58 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Frustation, You just said you were using cedega... theres a free demo of cedega also I think. | 01:58 |
|---|
| DistroJockey | [Rocc]: so it would be: ATAPO CD-ROM, IDE Hard Drive, Removable device, Other Boot Device | 01:58 |
|---|
| style23 | kitche whats the whoe command | 01:58 |
|---|
| Mystik7 | does anyone know if there any apps similar to street atlas for ubuntu, that can use usb GPS? | 01:58 |

|---|
| === anaxagoras is now known as bonhoffer |
| Dr_willis | Frustation, you now have everyone totally confused I think. | 01:59 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Frustation, wine is whats normally used to run windows apps. cedega is just a spinoff of wine with a game focus. | 01:59 |
|---|
| Frustation | Dr_willis: but... wine is wine and cedega is cedega it's more different no ? | 01:59 |
|---|
| DistroJockey | [Rocc]: can you move items up and down in that list maybe with + / - or PgUp / PgDown ? | 01:59 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | Frogger626: i had an idea that might fix your situation. | 02:00 |
|---|
| [Rocc] | DistroJockey, yeah i can | 02:00 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Frustation, cedega = wine+tweaks | 02:00 |
|---|
| IndyGunFreak | i was thinking about it after you left | 02:00 |
|---|
| DistroJockey | [Rocc]: sweet :) | 02:00 |
|---|
| Frustation | Dr_willis: okay and with wine i can run Most wanted ? | 02:00 |
|---|
| [Rocc] | DistroJockey, ...ok | 02:00 |
|---|
| Mystik7 | hmm I wonder if Street Atlas works under wine with usb gps device | 02:00 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Frustation, check the wine app database web page. | 02:00 |

| [Rocc] | DistroJockey, do i edit them? | 02:01 |
|---|
| Frustation | *do | 02:01 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Frustation, you said you installed the game... how did you install it? I would do a 'wine /path/to/media/cdrom/setup.exe' my self to start the installer. | 02:01 |
|---|
| DistroJockey | [Rocc]: just have CD first then Hard drive second | 02:01 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Frustation, if you just doubleclicked the .exe and it installed.. then it started wine by itself to install. | 02:01 |
|---|
| Mystik7 | I am confused by all the sym links to sym links that goto yet more sym links with the firefox install in squishy heron | 02:02 |

|---|
| DistroJockey | [Rocc]: which ever one your Ubuntu disk is in | 02:02 |
|---|
| Frustation | Dr_willis: when i doubleclic on my game.exe wine run any | 02:02 |
|---|
| kitche | style23: don't know what ubuntu actually calls it but the one from mozilla is firefox-devel might be firefox3 maybe | 02:02 |
|---|
| [Rocc] | DistroJockey, i have no clue though | 02:02 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Frustation, i never double click on the exe's i alwyas use the terminal. that way i see any wine error messages. | 02:03 |

| Frustation | with the terminal ? can you send me the command plz ? | 02:03 |
|---|
| jordan_ | cached, Especially since the wine devs themselves have an Ubuntu repository | 02:03 |
|---|
| Rafabe | root: was it a new profile or did you import stuff from a Windows installation? | 02:03 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Frustation, you use wine, or cedega to run the installer, it should add icons in the menus for the games. If the game dosent work check the wine app database to se eif theres any tweaks for the game. It MIGHT be totally unplayable with wine. | 02:03 |

| StPatrick | Survivorman, Finding posts about my problem is not my problem I can search google, and browse forums all day long. Thank you though. I appreciate your looking, and assistance. However, what I need is someone to help me DO one of those fixes. I can't put the processes listed into effect. | 02:42 |

| StPatrick | Survivorman, Please do nto take this as me being ungrateful. I am very appreciative of your searching. | 02:43 |

| ubotu | DigitalKiwi: Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu! | 02:43 |

| StPatrick | amenado, Im aware of that. Don't ask me to explain it. It's an internal USB. | 02:43 |
|---|
| === _endo602 is now known as endo602 |
| jim | DigitalKiwi: it's not debian. the only thing in common really is the packaging format... and even that is questionable, because ubuntu takes all its software from debian unstable and works on it | 02:43 |
|---|
| vocx | tocmo0nlord, jim, he could try alien but it is not needed to install adobe reader. | 02:43 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | DigitalKiwi, its no longer 'debian' - its branched away from debian. it also has different design goals then debian does. | 02:43 |
|---|
| hexoroid | anybody good with rdns ? | 02:43 |

| nickrud | crisnoh sorry bout that | 02:56 |

| christophoros | etc etc it shows me the help think | 02:56 |

| amenado | vocx he had removed the ieee80211 files so -- logical to may as well finish the compile steps he was working on | 02:57 |
|---|
| osxdude|laptop | nickrud, i'm going to not set up the network | 02:57 |
|---|
| christophoros | ty | 02:57 |
|---|
| StPatrick | 8 min on alienarena | 02:57 |
|---|
| christophoros | >< | 02:57 |
|---|
| vocx | StPatrick, you can follow the advise you want, but if the one helping you isn't even sure, you can mess things up badly. | 02:57 |
|---|
| nickrud | osxdude|laptop done that myself a couple times, easy to set up networking | 02:57 |
|---|
| refrax | christophoros: tell me if it worked | 02:58 |
|---|
| StPatrick | vocx, Well, what do you reccomend then man? I need wifi working, and I'm completely new to linux. :( | 02:58 |
|---|
| osxdude|laptop | nickrud, that is correct, remember I'm in the alternate disk :D | 02:58 |
|---|
| xfa | yeah but muting front mutes the rest | 02:58 |
|---|
| amenado | vocx-> it would not be so bad, when missing those ieee80211 to load ipw3945 | 02:58 |
|---|
| nickrud | osxdude|laptop I would have kept my mouth shut otherwise, it's the only install I use (and know even a little about) | 02:58 |
|---|
| xfa | DistroJockey, istn there a tool letting me configure that seperatly | 02:58 |
|---|
| vocx | amenado, I get it. However, I think that when you install kernel headers the symlinks are automatically set, you don't need to do it yourself. He is using a strange non-ubuntu guide? | 02:59 |
|---|
| christophoros | refrax yeh it worked | 02:59 |

| osxdude|laptop | there is no floppy disk, and there was an I/O error on dev/fd0 | 02:59 |

| unocrash | whats gobuntu? | 02:59 |
|---|
| refrax | unocrash: a template for other "ubuntus" i believe | 03:00 |
|---|
| StPatrick | joot, As I tried to explain earlier, finiding information isnt my problem. It's taking that information, and fixing anything with it that's stoppingn me. I need a translator. | 03:00 |
|---|
| amenado | vocx i dont know, he found the solution, we were looking for the stock ieee80211 but he has gone far enuff on the steps to have removed these..so we may as well go forward with building a newer ieee80211 | 03:00 |

| refrax | unocrash: to create other's like kubuntu and xubuntu | 03:00 |
|---|
| unocrash | oh | 03:00 |
|---|
| vocx | StPatrick, Okay, just remember that you can't rush things up. It doesn't matter if you are desperate, and being new to linux doesn't help. | 03:00 |
|---|
| nickrud | osxdude|laptop I read somewhere that setting a kernel option of all_generic_ide fixes that, you might want to google a bit to confirm | 03:00 |

| LjL | joot, newbie: not in add/remove programs perhaps (because most come without a graphical front-end by default, and add/remove only shows graphical programs), but there are certainly some in the repositories (use synaptic) | 03:03 |

| ubotu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 03:11 |

| amenado | StPatrick-> yes.. make SHELL=/bin/bash | 03:12 |
|---|
| jim | StPatrick: ok so you do have the build log... two issues: the build seems to require you to use bash | 03:12 |

| jim | perhaps if you do a make clean, get into bash and then run the make again it will work further | 03:13 |
|---|
| vocx | amenado, if you can you should talk to him in private message, because it is talking a lot of space in this channel. Just a suggestion. | 03:13 |

| bazhang | headrx: the x closes apps | 03:39 |
|---|
| astro76 | headrx: perhaps you removed the tray itself, try right click on panel, add to panel... and add the "notification area" | 03:39 |
|---|
| level09 | vocx: can I use mv /dir/* /newdir ? | 03:39 |
|---|
| headrx | thank you, that worked | 03:40 |
|---|
| vocx | level09, you need to create the newdir first. Also, read the manual page, it indicates how to move several files, and so. | 03:40 |
|---|
| level09 | THANKS | 03:40 |

| ubotu | anton: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 03:45 |
|---|
| bazhang | downstairs: if I recall cod4 is fairly resource hungry, not sure how to overcome that | 03:45 |

| anton | i want to update my compiz fusion 5.0.2 to compiz fusion to 6.0 | 03:46 |
|---|
| vocx | FnordPerfect, did you provide a read only option to the kernel at boot time? | 03:47 |
|---|
| crdlb | anton: what version of ubuntu? | 03:47 |
|---|
| crdlb | anton: also, you mean 0.5.2 and 0.6.0 :) | 03:47 |

|---|
| anton | yes indeed | 03:47 |
|---|
| anton | thanks | 03:47 |
|---|
| crdlb | anton: despite what the package versions imply, you _do_ have 0.6.0 | 03:47 |
|---|
| anton | i have now a 0.5.2 | 03:48 |
|---|
| FnordPerfect | vocx: yes, it's provided by grub. but this is normal, isn't it? it is supposed to be remounted r/w after fsck. | 03:48 |
|---|
| metbsd | does kde have comizfusion? | 03:48 |
|---|
| crdlb | anton: 0.6.0 was released shortly after ubuntu 7.10, so ubuntu included a development snapshot from just before the release | 03:48 |
|---|
| anton | and i think i dont have other extra plug ins | 03:48 |
|---|
| anton | like snow | 03:48 |
|---|
| bazhang | metbsd: it does when you install a couple of things | 03:48 |

|---|
| FnordPerfect | vocx: yes, there were plenty of errors, since I screwed it badly while downgraded from hardy back to gutsy. but i fixed most. | 03:59 |
|---|
| nickrud | TheFearsomeFufu yes, but release upgrades generally require that package be installled to complete | 03:59 |

| michael__ | that question came up yesterday i believe that it is ok to remove the desktop package but ma not sure | 03:59 |

|---|
| bazhang | Monobi2: and vista works on that older computer? you could try a net install, wubi, or a couple of other options | 04:03 |
|---|
| amenado | Ashfire908-> put that path in your PATH and execute the .py or cd to that dir then execute | 04:03 |
|---|
| Ashfire | Flannel, sorry | 04:03 |

| Monobi2 | bazhang: I have an external CD driver | 04:09 |
|---|
| bazhang | Monobi2: one that works? | 04:09 |
|---|
| Ashfire908 | HugoEnder, yes there is no password for root. | 04:09 |
|---|
| Monobi2 | bazhang: yes, it is external | 04:09 |

| Monobi2 | bazhang: just bought it tonight | 04:09 |
|---|
| bazhang | Monobi2: then problem solved | 04:09 |
|---|
| vocx | nickrud, seriously I felt like that was deja vu, I was expecting nickrud though | 04:09 |

| Monobi2 | bazhang: how so? my BIOS doesnt see it :| | 04:10 |
|---|
| bazhang | Monobi2: that is what I use to install ubuntu on my eeepc | 04:10 |
|---|
| HugoEnder | Ashfire908, so what stops anyone from installing stuff on ur computer using root? | 04:10 |
|---|
| nickrud | vocx heh. found out I had one already, just forgot #ubuntu+1 is handling hardy questions until release, /j #ubuntu+1 | 04:10 |
|---|
| Ashfire908 | !sudo | HugoEnder | 04:10 |
|---|
| ubotu | HugoEnder: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. | 04:10 |
|---|
| Ashfire908 | HugoEnder, when a user account has no pass, you can't login via a password. | 04:10 |
|---|
| Monobi2 | bazhang: well, you are going to have to walk me through it ;) . I modified my BIOS to boot from the various USB options and the Hard Drive last, but it didn't work. | 04:10 |
|---|
| bazhang | Monobi2: you may need to get vista drivers for it then; not sure about vista, might ask in ##windows first then come back | 04:11 |
|---|
| Monobi2 | bazhang: vista drivers? | 04:11 |
|---|
| nickrud | HugoEnder and only the first, installation created user has sudo privs, unless you grant them by adding a user to the admin group | 04:11 |
|---|
| axel | bazhang: I tried my Konqueror history. | 04:11 |
|---|
| vocx | HugoEnder, basically only the users that are in the admin group can use sudo, others cannot. | 04:11 |
|---|
| bazhang | Monobi2: you are using vista right now, yes? | 04:12 |
|---|
| Monobi2 | Yes | 04:12 |
|---|
| bazhang | Monobi2: and you have a problem with Vista recognizing an external cd drive, correct? | 04:12 |
|---|
| === GameJunkie is now known as Lleumas |
| Monobi2 | bazhang: not vista | 04:13 |
|---|
| Monobi2 | bazhang: the BIOS | 04:13 |
|---|
| Monobi2 | bazhang: I have the driver software for the hard drive | 04:13 |
|---|
| Monobi2 | bazhang: er, s/hard drive/external CD drive/ | 04:13 |
|---|
| bazhang | Monobi2: once you get that solved (hardware/bios issue) we can help you with ubuntu on there; until that time it is not really an ubuntu issue | 04:13 |
|---|
| vocx | Monobi2, It should be recognized by the linux kernel, and if it is not, then it won't work since the windows drivers are not compatible with linux. | 04:14 |
|---|
| Monobi2 | bazhang: okay. Well, that is my problem. I have used ubuntu on two other machines I have, so installing ubuntu itself isnt the problem :) | 04:14 |
|---|
| bazhang | Monobi2: which is why I suggested asking for help in ##windows and then coming back; we will still be here when you return | 04:14 |

| madagascar | hi again - how can i re-install or remove a package which "is in a very bad inconsistent state" ? | 04:16 |
|---|
| HugoEnder | thank you for your help guys | 04:16 |
|---|
| Kurban_Haydarov | I need some help guy about my friend's wireless problem | 04:16 |
|---|
| axel | Does anybody know how to access the cashe of Konqueror? | 04:16 |
|---|
| ty | Trying to open qparted and getting this error "Failed to execute child process "qtparted-root" (No such file or directory)" | 04:16 |
|---|
| sjovan | axel: i don't use KDE, but what do you mean by the cashe of konqueror? | 04:17 |
|---|
| nickrud | madagascar sudo dpkg -r --force-remove-reinstreq <pkgname> | 04:17 |
|---|
| bazhang | axel: I know this wont help now, but what I generally do is type it in open office and auto save then cut and paste it to whatever I am writing online--that way the web wiki messups are alleviated a bit | 04:17 |
|---|
| madagascar | thanks nickrud, i'll try it | 04:17 |
|---|
| bazhang | madagascar: this is gutsy or hardy | 04:17 |
|---|
| madagascar | this is an ubuntu question | 04:18 |
|---|
| nickrud | madagascar mostly works, if it says reinstall required in the error message | 04:18 |
|---|
| bazhang | madagascar: if it is hardy then the other channel | 04:18 |
|---|
| nickrud | #ubuntu+1 is handling hardy questions until release, /j #ubuntu+1 madagascar if that doesn't fix it | 04:19 |
|---|
| madagascar | i think the help i need is version non-specific | 04:19 |
|---|
| Ashfire908 | amenado, path is not needed when i give it the path (./), but adding ./ to PATH does nothing | 04:19 |
|---|
| nickrud | madagascar I understand that, but the package you have problems with is hardy specific, it might very well be a known hardy issue | 04:19 |
|---|
| axel | bazhang: Thanks for the hint. | 04:20 |
|---|
| spreda | is there a 64 bit ubuntu channel? | 04:20 |
|---|
| Iz | how can update gnome? | 04:20 |
|---|
| luckylin | i have a silly noob question but here goes, i'm all out of CD-r's but i have 100 DVD-R's so will a DVD-R work for burning ubuntu (probably does sorry to ask) | 04:20 |
|---|
| bazhang | sorry to be of immediate help axel; I have had that happen and know how much it stinks | 04:21 |
|---|
| bazhang | err not | 04:21 |
|---|
| Starnestommy | spreda: this channel is for 32-bit and 64-bit | 04:21 |
|---|
| nickrud | Iz you would have to compile gnome to upgrade it in a release, the new version is released with each new ubuntu release | 04:21 |
|---|
| vocx | luckylin, if you have that many you only need to burn ONE to try out? man do you really need to ask a question like this one? | 04:21 |
|---|
| bazhang | luckylin: sure no problem | 04:21 |
|---|
| climatewarrior | yes if you have a dvd burner you can do that | 04:21 |
|---|
| climatewarrior | there's even a dvd version of ubuntu | 04:21 |
|---|
| axel | sjovan: I don't mean the history of browsed URLs, but the "buffer" (Zwischenspeicher in German). | 04:22 |
|---|
| amenado | Ashfire908-> what does ./rtvm2.py supposed to do? | 04:22 |
|---|
| luckylin | thanks (yes i have a dvd/cd burner) | 04:22 |
|---|
| bazhang | luckylin: then you are good to go | 04:22 |
|---|
| Iz | i think i will need this cause the ubuntu i just installed was downloaded a time ago.. i got ubuntu 7.04 the feisty fawn and gnome v. 2.18 | 04:22 |
|---|
| ty | Trying to open qparted and getting this error "Failed to execute child process "qtparted-root" (No such file or directory)" | 04:22 |
|---|
| Iz | arent there new versions so far? | 04:23 |
|---|
| luckylin | ok one more retarded question | 04:23 |
|---|
| luckylin | can you put more then one ISO on a dvd and have like a dual boot iso | 04:23 |
|---|
| luckylin | like ubuntu and suse | 04:23 |
|---|
| vocx | Iz, to get the latest you need a new Ubuntu version. After that, there are no updates, unless there is a security patch. | 04:23 |
|---|
| bazhang | luckylin: no; it is an image so it leaves no free space--not a data disk | 04:24 |
|---|
| luckylin | oh.just thought i'de ask | 04:24 |
|---|
| climatewarrior | luckylin, as far as I know, no you cant do that | 04:24 |
|---|
| Iz | that means i have to downlaod the new ubuntu version burn in and reinstall ? or can i somehow upgrade ubuntu? | 04:24 |
|---|
| nickrud | Iz 2.20 came with 7.10, and 2.22 will come with 8.04 | 04:24 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | luckylin, ive seen some live-cd-dvds that do that.. but they dont do it quite that way | 04:24 |
|---|
| vocx | luckylin, That would be complicated. Probably would be possible to merge the two distros so they would still be one ISO, but sounds very strange indeed. | 04:24 |
|---|
| luckylin | yeah i noticed all iso's say zero free space even though they aren't as big as CD-R's | 04:24 |
|---|
| bazhang | lz that is up to you; you can net upgrade or do a fresh install | 04:24 |
|---|
| DistroJockey | luckylin: is possible, but not a question for here. You would need to edit the iso I assume | 04:25 |
|---|
| Iz | i prefer net upgrade :) how is this possible? | 04:25 |
|---|
| StPatrick | amenado, I'm back. Fresh install. | 04:25 |
|---|
| bazhang | lz from feisty to gutsy? | 04:25 |
|---|
| vocx | Iz, yes, you can upgrade ubuntu from the net. But you have to upgrade the entire distro, not just gnome, so it may need to download 1 GB. | 04:25 |
|---|
| nickrud | !upgrade | Iz | 04:26 |
|---|
| ubotu | Iz: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | 04:26 |
|---|
| bazhang | lz also dont do this on dialup ;] | 04:26 |
|---|
| amenado | StPatrick-> paste your ifconfig; iwconfig; route -n | 04:26 |
|---|
| nickrud | bazhang you are silly ;) | 04:27 |
|---|
| StPatrick | amenado, is that one solid command? | 04:27 |
|---|
| vocx | amenado, since I feel it's gonna take a while, I suggest you two move to private messages or a private channel. | 04:27 |
|---|
| StPatrick | amenado, Im in #HelpStPat | 04:28 |
|---|
| Iz | thx guys :) i just upgrating:) | 04:29 |
|---|
| sjovan | axel: no sorry mate, i can't help you. | 04:29 |
|---|
| M4rotku | can i upgrade to the hardy beta without install all of the other updates for gusty? | 04:30 |
|---|
| icesword | M4rotku, unless you uninstall them | 04:30 |
|---|
| nickrud | M4rotku not advised, you should be totally up to date in gutsy before upgrading to hardy | 04:30 |
|---|
| M4rotku | nickrud: the reason i want to is because an update package that i installed in the past wiped out my wireless card configs and i had to reinstall everything, that's why i have to upgrade again in the first place | 04:31 |
|---|
| nickrud | M4rotku you could try, but the results are undefined | 04:32 |
|---|
| tonyyarusso | M4rotku: Hardy questions should go in #ubuntu+1 btw - they'll be able to give you more detail. | 04:32 |
|---|
| Legendario | hi. can anyone give me some help with the gfxboot? I tried to install it, but my boot doesn't show anything? | 04:32 |
|---|
| M4rotku | tonyyarusso, thanks, i'll try that channel | 04:32 |
|---|
| crumbym | Just checking things out.. | 04:34 |
|---|
| pierrelux | I'm struggling to get ubuntu running on my macbook pro v4.1 ... first tried with 7.10 with the livedcd then the alternate but its failed to install grub or lilo. Now with hardy, black screen... nothings appening | 04:34 |
|---|
| crumbym | nikki try this website: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro | 04:35 |
|---|
| nikki8965 | My linux keeps rebooting. Do I need to reinstall? It's only on 5 gigs of drive space, because I was stupid, and didn't size my partitions when installing | 04:35 |
|---|
| emma | maybe someone could help you with gparted | 04:36 |
|---|
| jim | is parted the thing used by the installer to do partitioning? | 04:37 |
|---|
| nikki8965 | I tried to use it, but it won't let me resize my windows partition | 04:37 |
|---|
| pierrelux | crumbym: if this was for me... obviously, I checked it first | 04:37 |
|---|
| jim | nikki8965: ntfs?\ | 04:37 |
|---|
| nikki8965 | yeah | 04:37 |
|---|
| jim | that's harder | 04:37 |
|---|
| crumbym | nikki have you tried this one: http://kahvipapu.com/blog/2007/12/29/liberating-macbook-pro/ | 04:38 |
|---|
| bumpin4 | hi all | 04:38 |
|---|
| jim | it'd be easier to find a spare hd | 04:38 |
|---|
| nikki8965 | Ok. I have an external HD that I need to dig out of a box | 04:38 |
|---|
| crumbym | nikki I have Linux installed on my MacBook Pro.. There were some settings on that last hotlink that will help yoj. | 04:39 |
|---|
| jim | nikki8965: does it have stuff you need? | 04:39 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | pierrelux, Have you seen this guide ( for V3 ) https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MacBookPro/SantaRosa ? | 04:39 |
|---|
| jim | or can you wipe it with no worries? | 04:39 |
|---|
| nikki8965 | It has stuff I need | 04:39 |
|---|
| earl_ | hey guys. i'm wondering if there is any sort of sega genesis (or ideally, sega cd) emulator available for ubuntu. | 04:39 |
|---|
| jim | hmm. | 04:39 |
|---|
| pierrelux | Jordan_U: thanks but I already went over it... it seems now that I can boot in safe graphic mode with the 8.04 installer | 04:40 |
|---|
| jim | nikki8965: how many partitions and what kind? | 04:40 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | pierrelux, Then you get an error when installing Grub? | 04:40 |
|---|
| jim | does ubuntu use lvm by default? | 04:40 |
|---|
| nikki8965 | just one partition that I can think of. It's something I got from walmart | 04:40 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | jim, No | 04:41 |
|---|
| crumbym | jim No | 04:41 |
|---|
| crumbym | Jim it uses Ext3 | 04:41 |
|---|
| bazhang | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=451647 earl_ | 04:41 |
|---|
| izinucs | jim, you only get lvm on the alternate cd | 04:41 |
|---|
| emma | earl_, -- http://www.squish.net/generator/description.html | 04:41 |
|---|
| izinucs | crumbym, lvm is not a file system type.. it's a partitioning type of thing | 04:42 |
|---|
| bazhang | pierrelux: hardy? that should be discussed in #ubuntu+1 thanks | 04:42 |
|---|
| jim | I'm understanding that ubuntu is changing how it's related to debian in terms of its content... are they also changing how they obtain software (snapshot of debian sid)? | 04:42 |
|---|
| earl_ | thanks! | 04:42 |
|---|
| StPatrick | jim, Wanna have a go at my wireless now? | 04:42 |
|---|
| izinucs | nikki8965, did you get the $200 gOS? | 04:42 |
|---|
| crumbym | iz - I know, I was letting him know what the default partion format was | 04:42 |
|---|
| crumbym | LVM is Logical Volume | 04:43 |
|---|
| sjovan | hey, any of you know of a dc++ clone for linux? maby something that is in the rep? | 04:43 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | jim, What do you mean by "ubuntu is changing how it's related to debian in terms of its content" ? | 04:43 |
|---|
| pierrelux | bazhang: this is a general question... nothing specific about hardy. I first wanted to use the stable 7.10 | 04:43 |
|---|
| jim | let me see if I can remember closer... I heard that ubuntu had different design values than debian... | 04:43 |
|---|
| bazhang | pierrelux: what system are you running now? | 04:43 |
|---|
| jim | any truth to that? have those values changed recently? | 04:44 |
|---|
| nikki8965 | no. I paid like $80 for it. It has 'sea' in the name of it. I'm trying to google it | 04:44 |
|---|
| jim | seagate? | 04:44 |
|---|
| level09 | how can I detect the full path to some directory ? | 04:44 |
|---|
| nikki8965 | yep. seagate | 04:44 |
|---|
| jim | cd there, pwd | 04:44 |
|---|
| pierrelux | bazhang: not running ubuntu yet... I'm still trying to install ubuntu completely | 04:44 |
|---|
| level09 | pwd ? | 04:44 |
|---|
| crumbym | pwd | 04:44 |
|---|
| level09 | ok thanks :) | 04:45 |
|---|
| jim | man pwd for details | 04:45 |
|---|
| bazhang | pierrelux: what issues are you having installing gutsy | 04:45 |
|---|
| earl_ | this generator... won't emulate segacd, will it? | 04:45 |
|---|
| pierrelux | bazhang: it failed to install grub or lilo | 04:45 |
|---|
| izinucs | nikki8965, a seagate computer? they make harddrives.. is it a laptop or desktop? | 04:45 |
|---|
| level09 | great :) | 04:45 |
|---|
| crumbym | level09 - you might like whereis as well | 04:45 |
|---|
| jim | pwd gives you the fully qualified path name to the dir you're in | 04:45 |
|---|
| level09 | i'm actually staring to like linux :D | 04:45 |
|---|
| level09 | that's what I want, I'm installing some complicated crm | 04:45 |
|---|
| nikki8965 | It's an external harddrive. It hooks up to a computer using a usb cord | 04:45 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | jim, Not that I have heard, the main design differences are that Ubuntu limits the architectures it supports and focuses on the Desktop, also they are more lenient with "non-free" software ( they include Firefox by default still instead of iceweasel and allow easy installation of proprietary drivers ) | 04:45 |
|---|
| jim | stop staring! it's embarrisin! | 04:46 |
|---|
| crumbym | Anyone have suggestions on a good screen capture besides gtk-recordmydesktop? | 04:46 |
|---|
| bazhang | pierrelux: this was from the livecd or what? ubuntu or ubuntu-based; what errors are you getting please be precise | 04:46 |
|---|
| nikki8965 | But, I could partitionit, and install ubuntu? | 04:46 |
|---|
| jim | StPatrick: maybe after awhile | 04:46 |
|---|
| jim | oh, oops | 04:46 |
|---|
| jim | nikki8965: you -could- | 04:47 |
|---|
| izinucs | nikki8965, yes.. however installing on an external HD requires some finesse. there are how to's on ubuntuforums.org and elsewhere on the web.. | 04:47 |
|---|
| level09 | what does sudo command actually do ? | 04:47 |
|---|
| pierrelux | bazhang: I was unable to use the livecd (staled with low-graphics mode) so I tried with the alternate (64 bits) | 04:47 |
|---|
| jim | but you'd lose the drive unless you back it up | 04:47 |
|---|
| izinucs | nikki8965, why not just install in on your desktop HD? | 04:47 |
|---|
| jim | izinucs: how would he resize an ntfs | 04:47 |
|---|
| earl_ | level09: some linux distributions make you log in as "root", meaning the computer administrator, to have more permission to do stuff | 04:47 |
|---|
| bazhang | pierrelux: if you give precise info error we can troubleshoot, otherwise... | 04:47 |
|---|
| earl_ | level09: sudo'ing something gives you that level of access temporarily, and asks for your password | 04:48 |
|---|
| nikki8965 | I don't have a destop | 04:48 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | bazhang, Try choosing to have the installer *not* install Grub ( so the install does not fail ) then install it manually yourself ( this is what I had to do with my macbook pro back before Grub support for Apples BIOS emulation was as good ) | 04:48 |
|---|
| crumbym | level09 - you can also use su | 04:48 |
|---|
| pierrelux | bazhang: no special messages except a red screen with a popup saying it failed to install grub... then the same with lilo (I did not try to install on MBR to mess with refit) | 04:48 |
|---|
| nikki8965 | just a laptop | 04:48 |
|---|
| level09 | earl_: thanks ! very helpful | 04:48 |
|---|
| jim | you should be able to (build and) install su and/or sudo on any linux dist... no one's forcing anything | 04:48 |
|---|
| level09 | so no need for sudo if i'm a root user | 04:48 |
|---|
| izinucs | jim, on install you'll be able to resize | 04:48 |
|---|
| earl_ | level09: don't be a root user | 04:48 |
|---|
| level09 | why ? | 04:48 |
|---|
| earl_ | level09: do you leave your doors open? | 04:48 |
|---|
| crumbym | level09 = ROOT BAD! | 04:49 |
|---|
| earl_ | it's easier to get in and out of your house that way, so it seems like a good idea, right? | 04:49 |
|---|
| jim | level09: that is a long story with some points of charge associated | 04:49 |
|---|
| jim | ever run dos? | 04:49 |
|---|
| level09 | sure, but how is that ? I'm using a secure private key | 04:49 |
|---|
| earl_ | thing is, jack the ripper also gets into your house just as easily. so it's not. | 04:49 |
|---|
| izinucs | nikki8965, how does the live cd run on it.? wireless work? | 04:49 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | level09, But if your web browser is compromised it can do whatever it wants to your system | 04:49 |
|---|
| cjzjm100 | Are the softwares of the LTS release in the repo in-sync with the the other release(not the LTS release)? | 04:50 |
|---|
| bazhang | level09: irc on root? hahaha | 04:50 |
|---|
| level09 | I'm on putty client | 04:50 |
|---|
| nickrud | cjzjm100 no, they are substantially older, except for security fixes and a few backports | 04:50 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | level09, Doesn't matter what authentication you use to get root privileges, if you are running applications unnecessarily as root you are at risk. | 04:50 |
|---|
| level09 | how to disable root login ? | 04:50 |
|---|
| izinucs | nickrud, unless he's talking about hardy | 04:50 |
|---|
| level09 | and how do I get back if I disabled it :D | 04:51 |
|---|
| jim | level09: one thing, if you're not too familiar with the reasons for that, conventional wisdom suggests it's a bad idea... | 04:51 |
|---|
| nickrud | izinucs true, but context leads me to think of dapper | 04:51 |
|---|
| bazhang | level09: uh oh | 04:51 |
|---|
| jim | level09: also not good idea | 04:52 |
|---|
| TehMwak | anyone run 7.10 and have a X2300? | 04:52 |
|---|
| level09 | jim: what ? | 04:52 |
|---|
| whisperkiller | how do i get the chipset of my cardbus wireless card? | 04:52 |
|---|
| earl_ | level09: basically, if you don't need to be root to do something, which is almost always the case unless it's something that could potentially damage your computer, don't be root | 04:52 |
|---|
| izinucs | whisperkiller, lspci in terminal I think | 04:52 |
|---|
| bazhang | usb whisperkiller? lsusb | 04:53 |
|---|
| jim | level09: it's not a good idea to disable the root acct, you'll need it to fix things (for one) | 04:53 |
|---|
| bazhang | whisperkiller: pci is lspci | 04:53 |
|---|
| whisperkiller | cardbus | 04:53 |
|---|
| level09 | okay I'm convinced :D , what steps should I do now ? | 04:53 |
|---|
| level09 | just switch to normal user ? | 04:53 |
|---|
| bazhang | level09: check for rootkits | 04:53 |
|---|
| jim | level09: let me just ask this before we get further... do you have stuff you want to keep on the machine you're being root on? | 04:53 |
|---|
| level09 | I used a normal user , but I kept getting permission denied errors | 04:53 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | level09, That's where you use sudo | 04:54 |
|---|
| level09 | jim: i dont know, I'm running a lamp server | 04:54 |
|---|
| jim | stated another way... what if the hd of that machine were wiped? would that be a disaster? | 04:54 |
|---|
| nikki8965 | wireless works, and the live cd works | 04:54 |
|---|
| zero | hi, when i try to install C&C in cedega, it says i need administrator rights to install, im the ONLY user, how can i fix this? | 04:54 |
|---|
| level09 | sure | 04:55 |
|---|
| jim | are you just fooling around with lamp? or is it a production box? | 04:55 |
|---|
| bazhang | zero sudo | 04:55 |
|---|
| izinucs | nikki8965, then you could put it directy on the HD if you want | 04:55 |
|---|
| level09 | actually its a production box :D | 04:55 |
|---|
| nickrud | !sudo | zero (this describes getting the privs you need) | 04:55 |
|---|
| ubotu | zero (this describes getting the privs you need): sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. | 04:55 |
|---|
| zero | bazhang, how do i run sude in cedega? | 04:55 |
|---|
| zero | *sudo | 04:55 |
|---|
| nikki8965 | I'll try that... thanks :) | 04:55 |
|---|
| cjzjm100 | Does the server release have all functions of the desktop release? | 04:56 |
|---|
| nickrud | cjzjm100 no gui on the server, otherwise same base | 04:56 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | zero, run sudo cedega - should clear things up | 04:56 |
|---|
| level09 | okay then , I'll switch to my other user | 04:56 |
|---|
| zero | TheOneAndOnly, thanks | 04:56 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | zero, np :] | 04:56 |

| Mighty_Penguin | does mplayer only play videos if xorg is installed? | 04:56 |
|---|
| Mighty_Penguin | in cli mode | 04:56 |
|---|
| bazhang | Mighty_Penguin: you want to watch movies in the shell? | 04:57 |
|---|
| level09 | btw, wheres that file where I can enter command aliases ? | 04:57 |
|---|
| Mighty_Penguin | bazhang: yes | 04:57 |
|---|
| bazhang | Mighty_Penguin: how? | 04:57 |
|---|
| Mighty_Penguin | framebuffer | 04:57 |
|---|
| Mighty_Penguin | the same way i can view images in cli mode | 04:57 |
|---|
| bazhang | does framebuffer allow one to play games as well? | 04:58 |
|---|
| Mighty_Penguin | zgv works great for images, but i havent found any way to watch videos, i've heard mplayer does but not sure how | 04:58 |
|---|
| TehMwak | How to fix discolouration with a radeon x2300 on Gutsy??? | 04:59 |
|---|
| Mighty_Penguin | bazhang: that i dont know | 04:59 |
|---|
| zero | TheOneAndOnly, same problem, sudo cedega gave me the same issue | 04:59 |
|---|
| level09 | is there any editor that supports syntax highlighting ? | 04:59 |
|---|
| zero | TheOneAndOnly, ive checked out all the forums, the game is supported under ubuntu | 04:59 |
|---|
| vadillo | level09: vim, gedit | 04:59 |
|---|
| Starnestommy | level09: vim and gvim do, and I think gedit and emacs also do | 04:59 |

| luciddream | hi, i'm trying to setup an svn server using the standalone svnserve daemon. I think I may be misunderstanding how permissions work because I get permission denied errors even though I think I've assigned rw permissions to the svn user that the svn daemon runs as: http://pastie.caboo.se/175956 can someone take a look and tell me if i'm doing something dumb? | 05:00 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | zero, if you run it from the terminal, do you get any other output from the terminal other than a permission problem? ie - maybe the file itself needs permissions changed? | 05:00 |
|---|
| level09 | should I install them , or are they already in core ? | 05:00 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | level09, gedit as well as abiword do, there are others for specific languages as well | 05:00 |
|---|
| Starnestommy | level09: you might need to install gvim or vim-full if you're using vim. Gedit is already installed | 05:00 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | level09, vim and gedit are in the base | 05:00 |

| Mashandar | there's a windows and mac driver...no linux driver | 05:11 |

| StPatrick | For all those interested in trying to keep me in Linux, Here's a heads up on what's happened. Toshiba A205-S5800. Realtek RTL8187b Wifi Card. Works fine in Vista. Mandriva, PCLinuxOS, Suse, all see card, but can't get it to work in them, Ubuntu ( currently running ) Doesnt even see card. | 05:11 |
|---|
| StPatrick | I have tried : | 05:11 |
|---|
| vadillo | StPatrick: check this one http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/wireless-internet/118266-realtek-rtl8187b-help.html | 05:12 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Bax_, 'which bittorrnado' or whatever the command is to run it | 05:12 |
|---|
| michael__ | Stpatrick: you have to help me help you buddy do you have the windows driver on hand? | 05:12 |
|---|
| StPatrick | ndiswrapper with about 30 different drivers, compiling drivers, using hacked drivers, ^ That link, Several other links, 10 - 15 different walk-throughs. | 05:12 |
|---|
| StPatrick | michael__, I do not., I just finished formatting again | 05:12 |
|---|
| Bax_ | Dr_willis: I can literally type that in the terminal? | 05:12 |
|---|
| bazhang | Bax_: bittornado is in the ubuntu repos? | 05:12 |
|---|
| TehMwak | ... stpatrick : get a cheep supported wifi card. Problem solved! | 05:12 |
|---|
| StPatrick | TehMwak, That is nto an option. | 05:12 |
|---|
| jim | StPatrick: I'm more interested in having you choose what you want to run. If you're not willing to do that, you're not committing, and I expect more miracle requests from you as a result | 05:12 |
|---|
| michael__ | Stpatrick i went through the same thing i have a card that uses the bcm43xx and unsupported driver | 05:13 |
|---|
| bazhang | !info bittornado | 05:13 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Bax_, bash basics.. the which command shows the full path to the command you are running/asking about. | 05:13 |
|---|
| ubotu | bittornado (source: bittornado): bittorrent client with enhanced curses interface. In component main, is optional. Version 0.3.18-4 (gutsy), package size 155 kB, installed size 876 kB | 05:13 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Bax_, try 'which which' :) | 05:13 |
|---|
| StPatrick | jim, I prefer Mandriva. | 05:13 |
|---|
| jim | use that :) | 05:13 |
|---|
| StPatrick | jim, Cant get any support | 05:13 |
|---|
| michael__ | Stpatrick:whats the name of the driver your card uses? | 05:13 |
|---|
| SegFault[AX] | izinucs: irssi says it cant' connect to irc.thelinuxshow.org on 6667, is it on a different port? | 05:13 |
|---|
| StPatrick | michael__, I have no idea. Drivers have names? | 05:13 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Bax_, now if you want to know where in the menus that icon went.. no idea on that. | 05:13 |
|---|
| Shpook | Hello everyone, quick question: How do I get the Home Folder onto the desktop? | 05:13 |
|---|
| Bax_ | Dr_willis: but I don't know what the command is for bittornado, I just know that it was the name of the program I downloaded and installed through synaptic | 05:13 |
|---|
| StPatrick | michael__, The difference between you going through it, and me, is that I am not a computer guy.l | 05:14 |
|---|
| vadillo | StPatrick: also this one--> http://www.datanorth.net/~cuervo/rtl8187b/ | 05:14 |
|---|
| StPatrick | michael__, I do not know much about computers, at all. | 05:14 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Bax_, try 'bittornado' ? thats the most logical command for it. | 05:14 |
|---|
| StPatrick | vadillo, Yea, that one's fun... | 05:14 |
|---|
| michael__ | Stpatrick: yes like the name of mine is bcmwl5.sys (im not either i came into this not knowing anything) so im gonna help you out | 05:14 |
|---|
| Shpook | Oops, on KDE I mean. | 05:14 |
|---|
| SegFault[AX] | Shpook: ln -s $HOME $HOME/Desktop/Home | 05:14 |
|---|
| StPatrick | michael__, Ok :) I'm glad to hear it. | 05:14 |
|---|
| michael__ | Stpatrick: so we have to find the driver for your card eh | 05:14 |
|---|
| StPatrick | michael__, Care to meet m e in a different channel? | 05:14 |
|---|
| vadillo | StPatrick what did you mean with fun? | 05:14 |
|---|
| StPatrick | say.. #HelpStPat? | 05:14 |
|---|
| michael__ | Stpatrick: sure just lemme know the name buddy | 05:15 |
|---|
| Bax_ | Dr_willis: I did, with just the name, with ./, and with "which". Still got nothing | 05:15 |
|---|
| StPatrick | vadillo, I mean i did it. | 05:15 |
|---|
| hansin | Should I be using 'aptitude' vs. 'apt-get'? I am trying to get in the habit of switching to it. I keep seeing 'aptitude' is the way to go, but maybe this is a personal preference thing? I like to install Ubuntu as the Minimal CLI install from the alternative CD. Does anyone know if the installer uses 'aptitude' or 'apt-get', or is it lower level than that (dpkg?)? Thanks. | 05:15 |
|---|
| Dmole | Bax_: bittornado works but try transmition (gui) or rtorrent (cli) | 05:15 |
|---|
| level09 | is it bad also to use sftp as a root ? | 05:15 |
|---|
| Shpook | SegFault[AX]: Thank, that worked perfect. | 05:15 |
|---|
| jim | maybe | 05:15 |
|---|
| Bax_ | Dmole: I | 05:15 |
|---|
| Shpook | Thanks* | 05:15 |
|---|
| vadillo | StPatrick: also the other one link | 05:16 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | level09, only if you don't care about your system's security :p | 05:16 |
|---|
| SegFault[AX] | Shpook: no problem | 05:16 |
|---|
| level09 | TheOneAndOnly: I cant upload files with a regular user, theres no permissions | 05:16 |
|---|
| Bax_ | Dmole: I'm just trying to figure out how to find and access programs I just downloaded through synaptic, like bittorando | 05:16 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | !find bittornado | 05:16 |
|---|
| ubotu | Found: bittornado, bittornado-gui | 05:16 |
|---|
| Hellow | Hello | 05:16 |
|---|
| Alan_M | hansin, it has both on it.....and yes its personal preference honestly. | 05:16 |
|---|
| level09 | I'm using filezilla | 05:16 |
|---|
| ifireball | Bax_: you probably want "btdownloadgui" | 05:16 |
|---|
| ifireball | Bax_: type bt<tab> to see other commands installed by bittornado | 05:17 |
|---|
| Dmole | Bax_: that will be in the menu under internet | 05:17 |
|---|
| michael__ | Stpatrick: the way i did mine was quite simple actually all we have to do is find something to extract the firmware from your driver and well put it in the correct spots reboot and bam youl be good | 05:17 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | level09, hm, you should go in and set the file permissions as root, and then use sftp as a regular user | 05:17 |
|---|
| DeVonne | I still can't find or see my dvd/cd drive | 05:17 |
|---|
| Dmole | Bax_: and like ifireball said ta is your frend | 05:17 |
|---|
| amirman84 | what language do people use to write programs and GUIs for ubuntu? i may want to take a class on it | 05:17 |
|---|
| level09 | TheOneAndOnly: okay thnx | 05:17 |
|---|
| ifireball | Bax_: to see all the files installed by a package "dpkg -L bittornado" | 05:17 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | DeVonne, do you know what type of hardware you cd/dvd drive is? | 05:17 |
|---|
| amirman84 | all i know is BASIC :) | 05:18 |
|---|
| DeVonne | it came with the emachine so I do not know | 05:18 |
|---|
| Alan_M | amirman84: there are multiple languages that help out in that area :) | 05:18 |
|---|
| ifireball | Bax_: (though the list of file may not provide much info as to how to use it) | 05:18 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | amirman84, C#, and C++, Python, and Perl... | 05:18 |
|---|
| Starnestommy | amirman84: there are several languages that can do that. C, C++, Java, Perl, Python, Ruby, PHP, and a lot of others | 05:18 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | amirman84, we use them all | 05:18 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Bax_, aparanty its 'bt<SOMTHING>' | 05:18 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | Starnestommy, PHP and Ruby can be used, but they are mostly for web development. | 05:18 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Bax_, /usr/bin/btdownloadgui.bittornado | 05:18 |
|---|
| Bax_ | ifireball: so btdownloadgui is a general command to fetch programs I just downloaded? | 05:19 |
|---|
| StPatrick | michael__, Sounds good to me man. Come to #HelpStPat? | 05:19 |
|---|
| thundr2 | TheOneAndOnly: Is there a language that is used the most commonly? | 05:19 |
|---|
| amirman84 | ok, i was just wondering because i see that there's a niche to be filled most specifically apps for young kids | 05:19 |
|---|
| hansin | Alan_M: Thanks. I know the minimal CLI install include both, but do you have any idea what the text-based installer uses? Just curious. Like I said, maybe it is lower level than either 'apt-get' or 'aptitude'?? | 05:19 |
|---|
| DeVonne | ok I have found it | 05:19 |
|---|
| ifireball | Bax_: no that's the command installed by the bittornado package | 05:19 |
|---|
| DeVonne | http://www.impactcomputers.com/dvem100686rw.html | 05:19 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | thundr2, the kernel is in C#, but C++ is used commonly for apps. Python for gui apps is very common :] | 05:19 |
|---|
| amirman84 | my son is 2 1/2 and i was looking for some packages that could help him learn to use the mouse and stuff all i found was kletters and tuxpaint | 05:19 |
|---|
| DeVonne | this is the hardware | 05:19 |
|---|
| michael__ | stpatrick: ok im in there | 05:20 |
|---|
| thundr2 | TheOneAndOnly: Thanks :) | 05:20 |
|---|
| amirman84 | what language would be best for simple apps like that? | 05:20 |
|---|
| StPatrick | michael__, Uhh How? So am i... lol | 05:20 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | thundr2, np :] | 05:20 |
|---|
| Alan_M | hansin, no idea exactly what it uses, most probably apt-get because thats what we tell users in here to use, from what ive seen its the more common one in here :D | 05:20 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | amirman84, python is handy. | 05:20 |
|---|
| DeVonne | TheOneAndOnly: , http://www.impactcomputers.com/dvem100686rw.html | 05:20 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | amirman84, i'd go with python | 05:20 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | DeVonne, i saw the link, ty :] i'm reading it now | 05:20 |
|---|
| Alan_M | python :D | 05:20 |
|---|
| DeVonne | ok thanks | 05:20 |
|---|
| amirman84 | awesome i hope my college has a class on it | 05:21 |
|---|
| Alan_M | amirman84, and if not there are PLENTY of guides online for it. | 05:21 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | amirman84, most colleges, even community, have some class for Python, but it will include other langs as well | 05:21 |

| level09 | making a directory writable by a webserver, does this mean 755 or 777? | 05:21 |
|---|
| steven__ | I am using the Darklooks theme for Gnome and now Firefox is displaying Text Boxes with dark colored background. Does anyone know how to change this? | 05:21 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | level09, both are a little overkill. | 05:21 |
|---|
| level09 | what do u suggest :) ? | 05:22 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | level09, the dir could just be owned by the webserver, and you wouldent need those modes | 05:22 |
|---|
| dibblego | how can I run a script on login? | 05:22 |
|---|
| passbe | does anyone else have problems extracting a multiple part rar file ? | 05:22 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | level09, 777 will give everyone read write access, 755 will give owner read write, everyone else read only | 05:22 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | dibblego, depends on the window manager. Kde has .kde/Autostart Directory. Gnome has the session management features | 05:22 |
|---|
| hansin | Alan_M: Thanks for the help/info. | 05:22 |
|---|
| vadillo | dibblego: what distro are you are using? | 05:22 |
|---|
| dibblego | Dr_willis, I am using GNOME | 05:22 |
|---|
| zm | i ask a question | 05:22 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | dibblego, what program anyway? | 05:22 |
|---|
| level09 | how do I make it owned by webserver ? | 05:22 |
|---|
| Hellow | dibleggo, go to System - Preferences - Sessons for gnome | 05:22 |
|---|
| Alan_M | hansin, its what were here for :) | 05:23 |
|---|
| dibblego | Dr_willis, mozilla lightning | 05:23 |
|---|
| dibblego | Hellow, great thanks | 05:23 |
|---|
| thundr2 | amirman84: I can't vouch for the quality because I haven't read it, but this might be a good starting point for learning Python: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Python | 05:23 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | everyone, it's nice to see everyone getting so much help tonight :] | 05:23 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | dibblego, start the program, save the session. it should autostart i think. | 05:23 |
|---|
| zm | why can't firefox install the flash player plugin? | 05:23 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | thundr2, that is actually an excellent link, it's where i began | 05:23 |
|---|
| === steven__ is now known as Mannex |
| Dr_willis | zm, because one normally installs flash from the package maanger tool. | 05:23 |
|---|
| Alan_M | Theoneandonly, yeah awesome when there arent fights :) | 05:23 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | !flash | zm | 05:23 |
|---|
| ubotu | zm: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash (for !Dapper and !Edgy, a recent version is available in !backports) - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 05:23 |
|---|
| vadillo | zm: 32 or 64 system? | 05:23 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | Alan_M, haha, not even fights, it's nice to see that no one is flooding the room w. the same question this evening - lol | 05:24 |
|---|
| zm | sudo apt-get install flash ? | 05:24 |
|---|
| Alan_M | lol true as well TheOneAndOnly | 05:24 |
|---|
| Starnestommy | zm: try this: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 05:24 |
|---|
| Yowshi | how do i undelete something from the trash? i am not sure what duir these files came from but i didnt want to delete them | 05:24 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | zm, sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree | 05:24 |
|---|
| zm | yeah | 05:24 |
|---|
| pen | TheOneAndOnly: just use add/remove | 05:24 |
|---|
| pen | TheOneAndOnly: it's so much easier | 05:25 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | pen, that too :] | 05:25 |
|---|
| Mannex | I am using the Darklooks theme for Gnome and now Firefox is displaying Text Boxes with dark colored background. Does anyone know how to change this? | 05:25 |
|---|
| Hellow | Yowshi: have you already deleted it or is it just in the trash? | 05:25 |
|---|
| michael__ | anyone else having wireless troubles? | 05:25 |
|---|
| Yowshi | just in the trash Hellow | 05:25 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | Mannex, go into the appearance settings, and change the colors for your theme, should correct the issue, but will change the colors for everything else accordingly | 05:25 |
|---|
| amirman84 | michael_ : i've been there with wireless troubles | 05:26 |
|---|
| Hellow | Yowshi: hold on | 05:26 |
|---|
| michael__ | yeah im trying to help some people out | 05:26 |
|---|
| michael__ | it was a complete hassle to get mine working | 05:26 |
|---|
| zm | must i quit firefox first? | 05:26 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | zm, no, but you need to restart after the install | 05:26 |
|---|
| Hellow | Yowshi: right click and press "Restore" | 05:26 |
|---|
| Starnestommy | zm: that would be a good idea | 05:26 |
|---|
| zm | ok```now im installing | 05:27 |
|---|
| zm | thank you | 05:27 |
|---|

| michael__ | amirman81: what chipset is your card?? | 05:27 |
|---|
| icesword | no brige,use nat | 05:27 |
|---|
| icesword | then you get online | 05:27 |
|---|
| amirman84 | but i would like to eventually install it on a dedicated partition so i'll have to figure out the wireless stuff eventually | 05:27 |
|---|
| amirman84 | michael_: i believe it's broadcom | 05:28 |
|---|
| amirman84 | i use the dell drivers on my windows machine | 05:28 |
|---|
| DeVonne | TheOneAndOnly: do you know what is wrong? | 05:28 |
|---|
| thundr2 | Yowshi: You should be able to just drag and drop the files to whichever folder you want them in. | 05:28 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | DeVonne, i'm checking into it... | 05:28 |
|---|
| michael__ | amirman84: no shit garuntee i get it working in less than 20 min | 05:28 |

| Hellow | Yowshi: idk, im going to make a suggestion that they include a "Restore" function in the next release of Ubuntu | 05:29 |
|---|
| amirman84 | it doesnt work at all though | 05:29 |
|---|
| michael__ | amirman84: i use a broadcom card myself =P i have a way that worked for me if you wanna try it out ?? | 05:29 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | Mannex, for what exactly? heh | 05:29 |
|---|
| michael__ | amirman84: mine didnt either | 05:29 |
|---|
| amirman84 | well i could do it right now since i'm on a vm | 05:29 |
|---|
| Mannex | TheOneAndOnly, lol your suggestion regarding a previous question... nVm ;-) | 05:30 |
|---|
| thundr2 | Yowshi: It probably came from your Home directory. Under a directory like /.rhythmbox | 05:30 |
|---|
| amirman84 | but i would love to know how to do it | 05:30 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | Mannex, as long as your issue got resolved, i'm happy i could help :] | 05:30 |
|---|
| amirman84 | do you use NDISwrapper? | 05:30 |
|---|
| pierrelux | bazhang: just to tell you it worked with hardy. i don't know what was wrong. maybe a wrong partitioning | 05:30 |

| ntorido | How can i make a back up in ubuntu? | 05:30 |

|---|
| amirman84 | not at all | 05:30 |
|---|

|---|
| Bax_ | in the terminal, after executing something and nothing happens, How do I exit or get that program to quit so I can return to the command line? | 05:30 |
|---|
| amirman84 | how would you send it? | 05:31 |
|---|
| Starnestommy | Bax_: Ctrl+C | 05:31 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | ntorido, a back up of what exactly? | 05:31 |
|---|
| michael__ | amirman84: ok because i have saved to a folder for when i update but i think it should work for you do you have a copy of your driver? | 05:31 |
|---|
| ntorido | A folder | 05:31 |
|---|
| michael__ | amirman84: like this | 05:31 |

|---|
| DeVonne | ok :( thanks anyways | 05:32 |
|---|
| amirman84 | i can get a copy really quick from the dell website but it's a dell driver | 05:32 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | ntorido, i'd say archive it using bzip... | 05:32 |
|---|
| amirman84 | it's branded with dell's name so i guess they made their own driver for the card | 05:32 |
|---|
| thundr2 | Yowshi: There should be a way to find out where it came from, perhaps by changing the view of the trash folder. I don't have Ubuntu running right now, so I can only be of limited help, sorry. | 05:32 |
|---|
| michael__ | amirman84: hey im a newb to wanna go to a seperate channel or do you mind if i message you pruvatley | 05:32 |

| TheOneAndOnly | RedScare, if you're on battery power, you can run powertop to increase batter life | 06:04 |

| donkey7186 | sjovanyea says that its not supported and a plugin may need to be installed | 06:04 |

| RedScare | as opposed to my AMD X2 64 | 06:04 |

| donkey7186 | sjovan yea says that its not supported and a plugin may need to be installed | 06:04 |

| pen | TheOneAndOnly: I ran and press the button it ask to press | 06:05 |
|---|
| RedScare | which often leaves burnmarks on my leg | 06:05 |
|---|
| gogeta | RedScare oh battery power yea ubuntu will keep those fans as low as possable | 06:05 |
|---|
| pen | TheOneAndOnly: no increase in power | 06:05 |

| DeVonne | Does anyone know why when I put in a cd it can't read it? says there is no media | 06:05 |
|---|
| gogeta | RedScare hence more heat | 06:05 |
|---|
| thundr2 | Delson: I know that the icons (on the desktop at least) are able to be stretched and zoomed to whatever size you want, or do you want all icons throughout Ubuntu to look like that? | 06:05 |
|---|
| pen | DeVonne: what ? Audio CD? | 06:05 |
|---|
| DeVonne | game cd | 06:05 |
|---|
| hellonull | DeVonne: have you tried manually mounting it? | 06:05 |
|---|
| gogeta | RedScare you can adjust the settings if you wish | 06:05 |
|---|
| RedScare | I have | 06:05 |
|---|
| kenboo | Is there mips cross compiler for i386? | 06:05 |
|---|
| DeVonne | how do I go about doing that? | 06:06 |
|---|
| RedScare | I just wanted to see if anyone had had any luck with custom settings | 06:06 |
|---|
| sjovan | donkey7186: wierd... i can't remember installing any plugins. maby a simple google would help you | 06:06 |
|---|
| donkey7186 | well if i give you the website can you try? | 06:06 |
|---|
| kenboo | someone compiled for Debian but couldn't find it for Ubuntu | 06:06 |
|---|
| gogeta | RedScare set the temp thresh hold lower so the fans will cool it more | 06:06 |
|---|
| Delson | i want all the icons to be niform | 06:06 |
|---|
| DeVonne | how do I manually mount it? | 06:06 |
|---|
| Delson | uniform | 06:06 |
|---|
| gogeta | RedScare but you lose battery life | 06:06 |
|---|
| AngryBacon | wouldn't the debian one work? | 06:06 |
|---|
| RedScare | doesn't make sense why there's not a closer solution | 06:07 |
|---|
| RedScare | on my HP my battery with vista runs around 1.45, on my gateway with core 2 on vista I get up to 3.5 hours very easily | 06:07 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | pen, it will usually give you a small amount more, some systems it won't... mine it gave me 30 more mins | 06:07 |
|---|
| RedScare | on ubuntu 2 if I'm lucky | 06:07 |
|---|
| thundr2 | Delson: To do that on the desktop, you just right click the icon and go to stretch icon. To do that for all of them, one second I'm checking | 06:07 |
|---|
| gogeta | RedScare well you can turn off acpi but then they will run at 100% all the time prosser and fans | 06:07 |
|---|
| gogeta | RedScare you willlose alot of batery power | 06:08 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | pen, you would also need to run it as sudo | 06:08 |
|---|
| monkeyBox | Is powernowd preferred over cpufreq, or vice-versa? | 06:08 |
|---|
| donkey7186 | sjovan well if i give you the website can you try? | 06:08 |
|---|
| RedScare | cpufreqd? | 06:09 |
|---|
| pen | TheOneAndOnly: I did | 06:09 |
|---|
| sjovan | donkey7186: shure thing | 06:09 |
|---|
| sjovan | donkey7186: what's the url | 06:09 |
|---|
| RedScare | as far as I can tell, powernowd, and cpufreqd were both designed for AMD primarily | 06:09 |
|---|
| sjovan | ? | 06:09 |
|---|
| donkey7186 | sjovan : wildmorningshow.com | 06:09 |

| pen | TheOneAndOnly: how long does it take effect? | 06:09 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | pen, wow, and it gave you no increase at all? | 06:09 |
|---|
| gogeta | RedScare laptop systems have scaling prossers in speed wise its a power saving feature | 06:09 |
|---|
| TheOneAndOnly | mine took about 5 seconds, til the next refresh | 06:09 |

|---|
| hellonull | DeVonne: open console, mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom0 /cdrom | 06:10 |
|---|
| hellonull | DeVonne: you may have to use something other than cdrom0 | 06:11 |
|---|
| thundr2 | Delson: It's in the preferences somewhere, I'm still looking | 06:11 |
|---|
| DeVonne | ok will try that | 06:11 |
|---|
| Delson | ok | 06:11 |
|---|
| DeVonne | mount: special device /dev/cdrom0 does not exist | 06:11 |

|---|
| DeVonne | it does my mom burned dvd's with it | 06:12 |
|---|
| pen | DeVonne: type this into terminal: more /etc/fstab | 06:12 |
|---|
| AngryBacon | Does anyone know how to get a 8800gt working? | 06:12 |
|---|
| thundr2 | Delson: To get the icons smaller in Nautilus (the file browser), just click the zoom out button at the top. Working on the grid and a better solution now | 06:13 |
|---|
| sjovan | donkey7186: sorry mate... i can't help you. i tryed to lie :) "Due to licensing restrictions, we are not able to allow access to the content you are requesting from outside the United States.

|---|
| Enix | hello all, it has been awhile scince i have used linux but i have a question now that my vista has crashed. My question is: Can i recover my files using a live cd or similar without formating the hard drive thus erasing everything anyway. I want my files off the HD before i make my move to a fresh install of ubuntu. | 06:14 |
|---|
| donkey7186 | im not in canada | 06:14 |
|---|
| p_vas_salotti | HE MEN | 06:14 |
|---|
| DeVonne | I can try booting the live cd with it if that will convince people it works | 06:14 |
|---|
| donkey7186 | i listen to it all the time on windows but i cant on here | 06:14 |
|---|
| RedScare | of course Enix | 06:14 |
|---|
| gogeta | donkey7186 so | 06:14 |
|---|
| gogeta | donkey7186 usa proxy | 06:14 |
|---|
| p_vas_salotti | QUI PARLE FRANCAIS | 06:14 |
|---|
| donkey7186 | how | 06:14 |
|---|
| monkeyBox | What's the difference between powernowd and cpufreq? | 06:14 |
|---|
| Enix | RedScare: mind pointing me to some good reading material? | 06:14 |
|---|
| gogeta | donkey7186 you can be in iran for all i care use a proxy | 06:14 |
|---|
| Ziroday | AngryBacon: then thats the really new card and 7.10 does not have the updated nvidia drivers for that card yet. You can either run 8.04 which is currently in beta or compile the latest nvidia drivers by hand | 06:14 |
|---|
| DeVonne | if I boot the live cd and it works, then what do you recommend? | 06:14 |
|---|
| donkey7186 | well how do i do that | 06:15 |
|---|
| RedScare | Enix, its actually very simple, since Ubuntu has built in NTFS support | 06:15 |
|---|
| pen | DeVonne: boot it first | 06:15 |
|---|
| DeVonne | ok be right back | 06:15 |
|---|
| hellonull | wait DeVonne | 06:15 |
|---|
| sjovan | donkey7186: have you tryed any other "radio" services then? | 06:15 |
|---|
| DeVonne | ok | 06:15 |
|---|
| donkey7186 | yes | 06:16 |
|---|
| hellonull | try hdc instead of cdrom0 in that command i gave you earlier | 06:16 |
|---|
| AngryBacon | Ziroday: I installed the new drivers from nVidia, but it still doesn't work | 06:16 |
|---|
| donkey7186 | they all work but not this one | 06:16 |
|---|
| gogeta | donkey7186 somewebsite acully do it foryou | 06:16 |
|---|
| DeVonne | ok | 06:16 |
|---|
| Enix | ah, i c, can it be accesed via the terminal right from the get go, or is there some configuring beforhand? | 06:16 |
|---|
| AngryBacon | Ziroday: what version of the drivers does hardy come with? | 06:16 |
|---|
| Jordan_U | Enix, Boot the LiveCD, go to Places -> Computer, copy the files, rejoice :) | 06:16 |
|---|
| izinucs | AngryBacon, did you install them with gdm stopped? I think that's the correct method | 06:16 |
|---|
| DeVonne | mount: special device /hda1/hdc does not exist | 06:16 |
|---|
| RedScare | Enix, Jordan is spot on, that is really all there is to it | 06:17 |
|---|
| AngryBacon | inzincus: yes.. | 06:17 |
|---|
| * AngryBacon feels a tad patronized by that one | 06:17 |
| RedScare | it will normally automount | 06:17 |
|---|
| DeVonne | i tried | 06:17 |
|---|
| DeVonne | root@visionary-desktop:~# mount -t iso9660 /media/cdrom0 /cdrom | 06:17 |
|---|
| DeVonne | mount: /media/cdrom0 is not a block device | 06:17 |
|---|
| Enix | I bow to you kind sirs, have a good evening (or whatever it is where u are). :) | 06:17 |
|---|
| RedScare | if it doesn't its because windows has crashed and the drive has set to be active | 06:17 |
|---|
| Ziroday | AngryBacon: try using envy by alberto milone, it makes installing the latest drivers really easy http://www.albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html | 06:17 |
|---|
| AngryBacon | Ziroday: tried it | 06:17 |
|---|
| RedScare | in which case you will have to - force | 06:17 |
|---|
| gogeta | http://proxy.org/ | 06:17 |
|---|
| gogeta | just use a us proxy and enjoy | 06:17 |
|---|
| izinucs | AngryBacon, did you check xorg.conf to see if "nvidia" is listed as the driver? how bout running nvidia-settings? | 06:18 |
|---|
| Ziroday | AngryBacon: well then I can't help you, good luck | 06:18 |
|---|
| RedScare | its remarkably simple Enix | 06:18 |
|---|
| RedScare | Happy unixing | 06:18 |
|---|
| AngryBacon | izinucs: yup | 06:18 |
|---|
| gogeta | might need to use a few to find one fast enough | 06:18 |
|---|
| pen | DeVonne: hm, btw, can you describe your problem again? Do you mean the CD icon doesn't change if you insert cd into it? | 06:18 |
|---|
| AngryBacon | also, nvidia-settings doesn't work unless the driver is already runnning | 06:18 |
|---|
| izinucs | Ziroday, envy is not a good suggestion.. using it may bork your system on upgrade. | 06:18 |
|---|
| monkeyBox | Anyone familiar w/ cpufreqd? It's currently reporting my speed is at 800Mhz when I have a 2.2Ghz cpu | 06:19 |
|---|
| jim | AngryBacon: does that surprise you? :) | 06:19 |
|---|
| DeVonne | when I am in places -> computer and try to open the cd it says no media, and cedega says no medium | 06:19 |
|---|
| AngryBacon | jim: izinucs suggested it | 06:19 |
|---|
| gogeta | donkey7186 enjoy | 06:19 |
|---|
| pen | DeVonne: how abotu audio cd? other kinds of cd? | 06:20 |
|---|
| jim | ahh, ok... but think about it: if you have a settings app, you might need the thing to which the settings are applied | 06:20 |
|---|
| Ziroday | izinucs: yes. or it may fix your install :) | 06:20 |
|---|
| DeVonne | let me get one | 06:20 |
|---|
| RedScare | monkeybox, its scaling your processor based on workload | 06:20 |

| umop | How can i find the file that shows me mount options for a USb drive, it's mounting as read only for some reason(i cant see anything in /etc/fstab) | 06:22 |
|---|
| Ziroday | hellonull: you need to look at reason why mysql is not installing | 06:22 |
|---|
| hellonull | Ziroday: where do i find that? | 06:23 |
|---|
| DeVonne | the audio cd did not work, I am going to try the boot cd | 06:23 |
|---|
| gogeta | umop ntfs? | 06:23 |

| Ziroday | hellonull: it should say in the error messages when you install it | 06:23 |
|---|
| monkeyBox | RedScare, cpufreq-set -c 0 -f 2200 | 06:23 |
|---|
| gogeta | umop oh qwait the new ubuntu has ntfs rw by efult humm | 06:23 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | gogeta, unless the partition is flagged as needign checked by windows. | 06:24 |
|---|
| umop | gogeta, Yeah, but i'm not even sure what format the drive is | 06:24 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | gogeta, then it goes to read only. :) | 06:24 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | umop, 'sudo fdisk -l' and look | 06:24 |
|---|
| gogeta | true | 06:24 |
|---|
| DistroJockey | hhMish_: I doubt it was never installed. What does: man dpkg return? | 06:24 |
|---|
| thundr2 | Delson: Sorry, I don't know exactly where to find it. It should be fairly easy to find, but it's been quite a while since I've used Ubuntu. I know the setting is there. Perhaps it's in the xorg.conf file or whatever the correct config file or utility is. Perhaps someone else can give a more clear answer? | 06:24 |
|---|
| ntorido | Whats the best program for doing vector graphics in linux? | 06:24 |
|---|
| gogeta | Dr_willis cant he use ntfsfix to reair a usb drive | 06:25 |
|---|
| hhMish_ | DistroJockey, it was probably erased, it is appliance where I need to install it back | 06:25 |
|---|
| cabrioleur | ntorido, inkscape or sodipodi | 06:25 |
|---|
| gogeta | reapir | 06:25 |

|---|
| Jordan_U | ntorido, Or xara | 06:25 |

| RedScare | monkey are you running that as sudo | 06:25 |

|---|
| hhMish_ | DistroJockey, mans were erased, too | 06:25 |

| hhMish_ | and move on | 06:26 |
|---|
| hhMish_ | is there something like dpkg --root /mnt/sys , or I need debootstrap for that ? | 06:26 |
|---|
| DeVonne | what do you mean reinsert? just unplug and plug it back in> | 06:26 |
|---|
| zm | scim dead means what? | 06:26 |
|---|
| thundr2 | ntorido: if you're familiar with Adobe Illustrator, you should be fairly comfortable with Inkscape. I haven't tried the others extensively, though. They might fit your needs better. | 06:27 |

| Dr_willis | umop, since its a usb drive. it got automounted i imagine, and dosent have a fstab entry. You could unmountit, and remoubnt it manually with the proper options to let users access it. | 06:34 |

| umop | Dr_willis, yeah I have been doing that, not the greatest solution - guess I'll keep looking | 06:35 |

| jim | debug it... find the problem... fix it (got C chops?)... submit a bug report with a patch | 06:35 |

| jim | I mean... | 06:35 |

| Survivorman | I believe mail-notification and mail-notification-evolution allows you to have a persistent icon on the bar and then checks your mail and alerts you when you have new mail. it can open evolution for you too z3ek. | 07:03 |

|---|
| jim | tonyyarusso: so you don't allow dissent here? | 07:05 |
|---|
| softtower | Jonnie: I would go into BIOS and double-checked everything that has something to do with CD-ROM or SATA/ATA (your CD-ROM is SATA, right?) | 07:05 |
|---|
| N3WFI3 | just bored | 07:05 |
|---|
| N3WFI3 | so is it best to leave it alone or convert to ntsc? | 07:05 |
|---|
| tonyyarusso | jim: It's offtopic - support only in official support channels (otherwise the channel would be full of cruft and useless) | 07:05 |
|---|
| N3WFI3 | ntfs*** | 07:05 |
|---|
| Jonnie | yes sata, in bios its auto config.. nothing to config.. notthing like enhance performance... | 07:05 |
|---|
| recon | N3WFI3: if you install linux on said partition that windows just recognized, windows probably won't recognize it anymore. | 07:05 |
|---|
| NickRivers | N3WFI3: are you planning on dual booting? | 07:05 |
|---|
| tonyyarusso | jim: there is, however, an #ubuntu-offtopic that allows many more topics (but still not all) | 07:06 |
|---|
| N3WFI3 | i'm thinking about a dual boot situation ya | 07:06 |
|---|
| DeVonne | I am having a cdrom problem also, linux wont read the disc's | 07:06 |
|---|
| NickRivers | N3WFI3: which distro? with ubuntu live cd it can automatically resize your windows partition and set up linux in the reclaimed free space | 07:06 |
|---|
| jim | ok, I see... so you're banning him after he left so that he will... hmm, I don't know how to finish the sentence | 07:06 |
|---|
| softtower | Jonie: modern BIOSes have all kinds of weirdo SATA/PATA "modes". I would just went through every screen: I had issues like "no hard drive detected" that were caused by SATA "mode" setting in BIOS. | 07:07 |
|---|
| recon | jim: it will automatically redirect him to #ubuntu-ops for any further "inquiries". | 07:07 |
|---|
| z3ek | N3WFI3: when you install ubuntu it will install Grub a boot loader | 07:07 |
|---|
| z3ek | so you can keep Windows too | 07:07 |
|---|
| Radar | yay.. help vampires galore. | 07:07 |
|---|
| tonyyarusso | jim: have a chance to have a friendly conversation about it first, before being let back in. Usually works pretty well. ("usually") | 07:07 |
|---|
| N3WFI3 | im just dling the 7.10 desktop iso | 07:07 |
|---|
| NickRivers | N3WFI3: that is the live cd... it can automatically resize your NTFS partition to make space for linux | 07:08 |
|---|
| softtower | So weird to hear "you can keep Windows too". :-) Sounds like "You can switch to ice cream, but keep a box of dog poop in case you want to get back to your old habits" :-))) | 07:08 |
|---|
| recon | N3WFI3: there is no need to partition anything inside windows, ubuntu's installer has a built-in partitioner and bootloader setup that will use automagically set up a dual-boot. | 07:08 |
|---|
| gogeta | softtower prretty mutch | 07:08 |
|---|
| recon | N3WFI3: btw, are you using a partition or a whole hard disk? | 07:08 |
|---|
| kenboo | ubuntu + wine is just good enough for me. I rarely have to boot Windows. | 07:09 |
|---|
| N3WFI3 | i got 2 hard drives so i would prefer to install linux on the second drive | 07:09 |
|---|
| jim | you should be able to do that | 07:09 |
|---|
| jim | (true of any linux) | 07:09 |
|---|
| NickRivers | N3WFI3: the live cd you are downloading will do the partitioning for you - no need to mess with it in windows | 07:09 |
|---|
| N3WFI3 | i guess i just select the drive when i begin install? | 07:09 |

| recon | N3WFI3: the ubuntu installer has a "guided partitioning" in which you select the second hard drive, and it automatically sets everything up for you, including the dual-boot. | 07:09 |

| xyyzzz | What would be the easiest method about which I could go to install a .RPM? Is there a package I should download that does it all for me? | 07:10 |

| NickRivers | N3WFI3: it will setup a non-3d accelerated driver for your nvidia during install and then once you boot into your system you can install the proprietary nvidia driver | 07:13 |

| XTeLiS | and im still having a hella time tryin to config my wireless | 07:43 |
|---|
| XTeLiS | it 'says' its installed | 07:43 |
|---|
| jim | it? | 07:44 |
|---|
| XTeLiS | but i can seem to connect to any of the wireless networks around my neighborhood like i could with vista or xp | 07:44 |
|---|
| jim | it? | 07:44 |
|---|
| XTeLiS | it - drivers for my wireless card | 07:44 |
|---|
| === bluefoxx_ is now known as bluefoxx |
| XTeLiS | can = cant | 07:44 |
|---|
| Muhammad_Saad | Hello, I am having trouble with gnome-ppp. Can someone help? | 07:45 |
|---|
| macogw | XTeLiS: the drivers should be there automatically on 7.10, but you need firmware | 07:45 |
|---|
| jim | ok, what's the next step assuming the drivers are present? | 07:45 |
|---|
| macogw | XTeLiS: are you on that computer right now? | 07:45 |
|---|
| XTeLiS | yes | 07:45 |
|---|
| XTeLiS | using wired connect | 07:45 |
|---|
| macogw | XTeLiS: ok download http://macoafi.googlepages.com/firmware.tar.gz | 07:45 |
|---|
| XTeLiS | firmware ? | 07:45 |
|---|
| macogw | XTeLiS: firmware is the part that the card itself loads and then the OS uses the driver to talk to the firmware to tell the card what to do | 07:45 |
|---|
| macogw | XTeLiS: at least, that's my understanding of it. anyone is free to correct. | 07:46 |
|---|
| macogw | XTeLiS: i tar'd up the firmware from my mom's computer. she has a broadcom card too. | 07:46 |
|---|
| macogw | XTeLiS: after it's downloaded to your desktop, double click it to extract it. open a terminal (apps -> accessories -> terminal) and type "cd Desktop" (with the capitals) | 07:48 |
|---|
| macogw | XTeLiS: then type "sudo mv firmware/* /lib/firmware/" and hit enter | 07:48 |
|---|
| macogw | XTeLiS: and then it *should* work | 07:48 |

|---|
| MrSkittle | apt-get upgrade, that is | 07:52 |
|---|
| macogw | N3WFI3: for windows? | 07:53 |
|---|
| gliss | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/62285/ | 07:53 |
|---|
| Survivorman | gliss, install swfdec-mozilla | 07:53 |
|---|
| N3WFI3 | ya | 07:53 |
|---|
| MrSkittle | um, it's the "error committing changes" thing | 07:53 |
|---|
| putergirl | . | 07:53 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | N3WFI3, i like 'burnatonce' for windows | 07:53 |
|---|
| gliss | ok | 07:53 |
|---|
| MrSkittle | there's a certain command that fixes it automagically | 07:53 |
|---|
| MrSkittle | what is it? | 07:53 |
|---|
| MrSkittle | dpgk-configure or something? | 07:54 |
|---|
| gliss | a girl? | 07:54 |
|---|
| macogw | N3WFI3: what about the iso power toy for windows that ms released? | 07:54 |
|---|
| gliss | in an ubuntu chat room at 3am?! | 07:54 |
|---|
| tonyyarusso | gliss: don't be annoying. | 07:54 |
|---|
| gliss | i'm not being annoying, i'm bing funny | 07:54 |
|---|
| N3WFI3 | windows made one? | 07:54 |
|---|
| gliss | there's a subtle difference | 07:54 |
|---|
| macogw | gliss: of course. | 07:54 |
|---|
| DOOM_NX | what do i need to compile mplayer? | 07:55 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | N3WFI3, i found 'burnatonce' better then the ms one. | 07:55 |
|---|
| N3WFI3 | ya | 07:55 |
|---|
| gliss | tonyyarusso: i let her off easy, i was going to make a joke about philly | 07:55 |
|---|
| Survivorman | MrSkittle, were you thinking sudo dpkg --configure -a | 07:55 |
|---|
| macogw | N3WFI3: http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm | 07:55 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | DOOM_NX, a whole lot of dependencies... and build-essential package | 07:55 |
|---|
| N3WFI3 | i tried iso recorder | 07:55 |
|---|
| macogw | N3WFI3: right click an iso and there's a burn option | 07:55 |
|---|
| N3WFI3 | it gave me an error | 07:55 |
|---|
| tonyyarusso | gliss: and yet you're on thin enough ice as it is. | 07:55 |
|---|
| N3WFI3 | i think its cause im running sp3 beta | 07:55 |
|---|
| MrSkittle | Survivorman: that's probably it | 07:55 |
|---|
| gliss | so why can't i install swf-player? | 07:55 |
|---|
| gliss | why is there a gtk conflict? | 07:55 |
|---|
| cabrioleur | DOOM_NX, not much, it's up to you actually. There is a lot of options, and a compiler is a minimum. The rest of it is up to you. | 07:55 |
|---|
| gliss | i haven't touched the repos | 07:56 |
|---|
| jim | gliss: but if you are able to help hold this space safe for her, she might actually say something | 07:56 |
|---|
| DOOM_NX | Dr_willis, i have already installed mplayer, but i need to recompile it with xmms demuxer support | 07:56 |
|---|
| gliss | tonyyarusso: my landlord turned the heat off because it's "spring" | 07:56 |
|---|
| Survivorman | I had the same problem gliss when I tested it, I could only install the version I gave you. | 07:56 |
|---|
| gliss | jim: oh, i'm not that interested | 07:56 |
|---|
| macogw | gliss: no. you're not being funny, by the way. it might've been funny when i first heard it nearly 2 years ago. it's not anymore. | 07:56 |
|---|
| jim | maybe tony is | 07:56 |

| gliss | macogw: "no girls on irc" is a timeless joke. i heard it on irc over 10 years ago. excuse you | 07:57 |
|---|
| DOOM_NX | well if anyone can help me recompile mplayer with xmms support i'd appreciate it a lot | 07:57 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | DOOM_NX, hmm.. xmms support? what doex xmms have to do with it? | 07:57 |
|---|
| macogw | gliss: it's not timeless. it's just old & tired. | 07:58 |
|---|
| DOOM_NX | http://users.softlab.ntua.gr/~ttsiod/mp3pro.html | 07:58 |
|---|
| gliss | Survivorman: that one installed with out a problem | 07:58 |
|---|
| DOOM_NX | here | 07:58 |
|---|
| jim | DOOM_NX: it's not just configure with turning on options, then make? | 07:58 |
|---|
| MrSkittle | Survivorman: you were correct | 07:58 |
|---|
| DOOM_NX | see last section | 07:58 |
|---|
| MrSkittle | Survivorman: thanks | 07:58 |
|---|
| gliss | Survivorman: the first one is a gstreamer plug in though, so i wanted that one | 07:58 |
|---|
| zenix | what is a good *lightweight* (aka, not Pidgin) multi-IM client? | 07:58 |
|---|
| Survivorman | MrSkittle, no | 07:58 |
|---|
| Survivorman | gliss, gotcha | 07:58 |
|---|
| cabrioleur | DOOM_NX, download sources, unpack it, then make sure you have a compiler. Do ./configure --help and find --enable options for it. If it doesn't work, install dev package for thing that's needed. | 07:58 |
|---|
| tonyyarusso | zenix: bitlbee? | 07:58 |
|---|
| MrSkittle | this has been my most pleasant experience in this channel to date! | 07:58 |

|---|
| jim | you're the one that has to do that stuff... knowing something about it might be a good thing | 07:59 |

|---|
| tonyyarusso | yes, all, please. | 08:00 |

| un_dave | just in case this didn't come through before: hi, i just installed a theme which said "Apply suggested font" it worked, but now i just want to reset it back to the gutsy/gnome default. How do I find out what the default fonts are? | 08:03 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | DOOM_NX, i cant imagine what you are doing that you need to recompile mplayer. | 08:03 |
|---|
| DOOM_NX | i told u, i want to play mp3pro files | 08:03 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | DOOM_NX, ther is some apt-get command that can install all the needed deps for a package, when it was built. that may save a lot oftime | 08:04 |
|---|
| keiserr | hi | 08:04 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | DOOM_NX, never heard of them. | 08:04 |
|---|
| N3WFI3 | my iso got deleted or something by mistake i dont even know how it happened | 08:04 |
|---|
| Starnestommy | Dr_willis: sudo apt-get build-dep package? | 08:04 |
|---|
| N3WFI3 | soo annoying now i goto get it again | 08:04 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | Starnestommy, A+ :) | 08:04 |
|---|
| N3WFI3 | :9 | 08:04 |
|---|
| N3WFI3 | :'( | 08:04 |
|---|
| jim | DOOM_NX: if you're building anything that has a configure script... first read the readme to see what it needs for building... then run configure with the options you want... then run make | 08:04 |
|---|
| tonyyarusso | Dr_willis: apt-get build-dep, iirc | 08:04 |
|---|
| tonyyarusso | bah, beat to it | 08:04 |
|---|
| cabrioleur | N3WFI3, find / | grep nameofthefile.iso | 08:04 |
|---|
| Dr_willis | DOOM_NX, so for a start you proberly want to do a 'sudo apt-get build-dep mplayer' | 08:05 |
|---|
