| ikonia | New2Ubuntu: try to note down one, | 00:17 |
| josh_ | in that in synaptic | 00:18 |
| ikonia | Daisuke_Laptop: modules only work for specific hardware | 00:18 |
| josh_ | is* | 00:18 |
| cubexombi | put Section "Extensions"~Option "Composite" "Enable"~EndSection into the bottom of your xorg where ~=Enter | 00:18 |
| New2Ubuntu | yep. i'm half-way with the alt disk. i'll give that a try first. | 00:18 |
| ikonia | josh_: not sure I follow, do you have a package you want to check ? | 00:18 |
| Scunizi | ikonia, under "Edit" there is a "Fix Broken Packages" option | 00:18 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | ikonia: thank you for that bit of wisdom, but that's not what i asked. | 00:18 |
| Auctionedllama | Pelo- I'm back into guie.. now what mate? | 00:18 |
| crdlb | malocite: actually, you just need to remove the Section "Extensions" entirely | 00:18 |
| josh_ | no it just said in synaptic that i had a broken package or file and i dont know where to look | 00:18 |
| josh_ | there is a crap load of files in there | 00:19 |

| Daisuke_Laptop | ikonia: the question is what i asked - how to find out what's using a particular module | 00:19 |
| ikonia | New2Ubuntu: we don't support fedora here | 00:19 |
| cubexombi | crdlb: really, cause it breaks if I don't have iit there | 00:19 |
| ikonia | Daisuke_Laptop: and if you understood what I said rather than giving me a star response, you'd know | 00:20 |
| crdlb | cubexombi: not since feisty | 00:20 |
| New2Ubuntu | yeah, i know.. just saying, for some reason ubuntu isn't coperating with me | 00:20 |
| malocite | crdlb: restarting x | 00:20 |
| New2Ubuntu | it seems like the better distro | 00:20 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | what, that modules only work for specific hardware? | 00:20 |
| ikonia | Daisuke_Laptop: modules can only be used by specific hardware , so therefore if you have an ipw2000 module loaded for example it can ONLY be used by your intel wirless card | 00:20 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | that's a big *duh* | 00:20 |
| ikonia | New2Ubuntu: not interested, | 00:20 |
| cubexombi | crdlb: this is what I get for "Rolling my own" with the minimal CD then | 00:20 |

| ikonia | Daisuke_Laptop: what modules are you talking about, kernel modules, xorg modules ? | 00:21 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | ikonia: let me give you a quick example | 00:21 |

| crdlb | malocite: run compiz --replace in a terminal | 00:23 |
| ikonia | Daisuke_Laptop: with that, thats actually "device file" related | 00:23 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | i should have worded that better | 00:23 |

Instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers | 00:53 |
| nikitis | too many options | 00:53 |
| Dr_willis | When 90% of the questions get asked over and over and over.. the bot is handy. | 00:53 |
| linkmaster03 | seriously that bot knows everything wtf :S | 00:53 |

| glederfein | I need some help with connecting to a VPN PPTP server... | 00:53 |

| dub | know issues with firefox and mozilla playing audio? | 00:54 |
| linkmaster03 | :) | 00:54 |
| sammyF_ | dub, depends on the soundcard you have | 00:54 |
| Odd-rationale | colR: yes. use virtualbox or vmware | 00:55 |
| sammyF_ | dub, if you have a creative labs Xfi, you might run into problems ... not just in mozilla | 00:55 |
| === lx^ is now known as yngwie | ||
| glederfein | Is there anyone with some experience with connecting to VPN PPTP servers? | 00:55 |
| dub | sammyF_, its only the broswers and its intermittant maybe for the last 3 weeks | 00:55 |
| akirch | AaronMT, aah yes, but I've already read that document and it doesn't speak to adjusting xorg to use 100dpi fonts by default :) | 00:55 |
| sammyF_ | glederfein: do you want to connect to a W2003 server via VPN? | 00:55 |
| sammyF_ | dub, happens only when watching flash movies? | 00:56 |
| cubexombi | can someone point me to an answer to why my 2nd monitor won't power on? I've been able to get it to switch from external display to my laptop's display, but if I try to use the external Via my xorg. my driver wigs out on me. | 00:56 |
| dub | sammyF_, possibly | 00:56 |
| colR | Odd-rationale: thanks. i read a bit on vmare sitr, it talked about a machine image. | 00:56 |
| tom_ | ... ok I think I get it... so I add to fstab and then add my mount command to rc.local? how often will that run? What about unmounting before removing the drive? | 00:56 |
| cubexombi | My google-fu is failing me tonight | 00:56 |
| Scunizi | glederfein, this might help http://pptpclient.sourceforge.net/ | 00:57 |
| sammyF_ | I installed Hardy Heron beta today, and the compiz open/close etc effects do not work anymore. It's hardly critical, but if someone has an idea what's wrong ... | 00:57 |
| Scunizi | sammyF_, you need to be on #ubuntu+1 for hardy support | 00:57 |
| === ru`` is now known as ru` | ||
| sammyF_ | dub, adobe's flash plugin is .. Well .. bitchy | 00:57 |
| colR | Odd-rationale: does that mean my access to the other os will be limited? | 00:58 |
| DefineKThyne | I just recently dual-parted with Gutsy and am trying to play a non-encrypted DVD with VLC but it won't play. Any ideas? | 00:58 |
| tom_ | sammyF_: compiz not critical? I beg to differ :-p | 00:58 |
| AaronMT | !dvd | devinekthyne | 00:58 |
| ubotu | devinekthyne: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs | 00:58 |
| sammyF_ | Scunizi: ok, thanks. | 00:58 |
| Odd-rationale | colR: yes | 00:58 |
| sammyF_ | tom, well ... as much as I like some of compiz's features (expo is just plain great), the window open/close animations fit rather well in the "pure eye candy" category ;) | 00:59 |
| colR | Odd-rationale: is there any way to have both OSes booted and seamlessly switch between them? | 00:59 |
| Odd-rationale | colR: nope. just start by dualbooting ubuntu and windows. before too long you will remove windows... | 01:00 |
| amenado | coIR why such a need? | 01:00 |
| dmsuperman | How can I tell deskbar where to look for files when I'm searching for them? | 01:00 |

| sjovan | hey, how do you get firefox stop useing the color theme for gnome? | 01:01 |
| khaledm__ | i get an exception while running firefox | 01:01 |
| AaronMT | Firefox crashes with flash on youtube like crazy in hardy | 01:01 |

| sjovan | i want default firefox colors | 01:01 |
| cubexombi | anyone in here have a dual monitor setup? I can't get my 2nd screen to power on though X is playing nice with xrandr, | 01:01 |
| luke__ | how do i dual boot | 01:01 |
| cubexombi | Aaron: yes, yes it does | 01:01 |

| cubexombi | then again it wasn't great in gutsy either | 01:02 |
| sammyF_ | AaronMT: used to crash as much in Gutsy | 01:02 |
| AaronMT | I think its a little worse now | 01:02 |
| AaronMT | I was thinking about trying gnash but I heard its worse | 01:03 |
| Draggin | Evening again everyone. I have a funny little problem... Whenever I put a disc in my CD ROM or DVD ROM and it automounts it putting an icon the desktop, if I leave the disc(s) in and reboot, it seems to 'mount' it a second time. There are two icons for each disc, yet they report the same mount point. If I right-click and 'eject' a disc, only one icon disappears. Everything still works fine, but it's really annoying... | 01:03 |
| cubexombi | at least it's progressive at something .. failing | 01:03 |
| ahave | Hello, I am trying to configure SAMBA in ubuntu... I can see the computer from a windows box, but when i try to acces i get this message: http://img175.imageshack.us/my.php?image=halpqa0.png Can anyone advise? | 01:03 |
| AaronMT | Draggin sounds like a gnome bug, did you check if its in launchpad? | 01:03 |
| sammyF_ | AaronMT: hmm .. dunno. been watching videos at arte.fr all day and didn't have any crash. I thought it was actually better than Gutsy | 01:03 |
| Draggin | AaronMT - I've tried searching, but don't quite know what to enter for the search - any suggestions? | 01:04 |
| === no0tic is now known as no0ticoglione | ||
| AaronMT | mount icon maybe? | 01:04 |
| cubexombi | no love in here dor dual monitor issues right now? | 01:04 |

| ksb | Hi | 01:05 |
| cubexombi | can't get my 2nd screen to power on though X is playing nice with xrandr, as far as resolution changing It just wont power on. | 01:05 |
| ksb | I have a really quick total noob question for someone | 01:05 |
| Scunizi | !ask | ksb | 01:05 |
| ubotu | ksb: 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. :-) | 01:05 |
| sammyF_ | cvbexombi, what card do you use? nvidia? | 01:05 |
| cubexombi | nah, tis unfortunately an Ati, | 01:06 |
| ksb | I am installing UBTU FF and need to create a SWAP partition. Should that be Logical or Primary? | 01:06 |
| Draggin | AaronMT - all I seem to keep getting is the error I'm referring to, but only with USB discs... | 01:06 |
| shyster317 | sudo apt-get upgrade girlfriend | 01:07 |
| sammyF_ | cubexombi: sigh ... I had an ATI once and got dualscreen to work ... but that was a loooong time ago :/ I guess you tried envy already? | 01:07 |
| Dr_willis | ksb, swap can be either one. I tend to make all primary partitions | 01:07 |
| AaronMT | Well if it sounds similar | 01:07 |
| b1n0ry | if i'm running hardy beta, when the release is done i should just be able to apt-get update, right? | 01:07 |
| ksb | Thanks DR. | 01:07 |
| glederfein | sammyF_, can you help me with the VPN PPTP connection? | 01:07 |
| AaronMT | b1n0ry yep | 01:07 |
| b1n0ry | sweet | 01:07 |
| mooboo1 | i plugged in webcam, nothing happend | 01:08 |
| sammyF_ | glederfein: please write the name of the person you're talking to (me in that case) like you just did. that way your messages won't get lost :) | 01:08 |
| AaronMT | Add its drivers perhaps | 01:08 |
| cubexombi | sammyF_: nope, card doesn't support the ATI binary driver | 01:08 |
| sammyF_ | cubexombi: outsch | 01:08 |
| sammyF_ | glederfein: so, you want to connect to a Win2003 server? | 01:08 |
| Bidget | anyone in here been able to get online with steam games? | 01:09 |
| glederfein | sammyF_ I'm not sure what kind of server it is. All I know is that it's a vpn pptp server. | 01:09 |
| b1n0ry | Bidget: yes, on my windows machine | 01:09 |
| === dgtl|screen is now known as dgtlchlk | ||
| b1n0ry | Bidget: if that was a general question regarding the status of the steam network | 01:09 |
| sammyF_ | glederfein: and what it your problem? it should be rather straight forward actually | 01:09 |
| ricanelite | anyone know if Google Desktop will work in Ubuntu? | 01:09 |
| Bidget | well b1n0ry I think this is ubuntu why would I be asking about windows? | 01:10 |
| glederfein | sammyF_ first I installed pptp-linux | 01:10 |
| doolz | google? | 01:10 |
| SeaPhor | well I installed and configured vsftpd, but I cant seem to connect to it, any help? | 01:10 |
| b1n0ry | Bidget: because i thought maybe you were just asking the status of the steam network | 01:10 |
| Wolvez | somebody knows tomcat here? | 01:10 |
| Bidget | nahhh haha | 01:10 |
| cubexombi | sammyF_: I fall into the ... odd card .. area, If I install old distros it works beutifully, If I roll my own distro with the 9mb minimal install I'm good.. decided I'd try the full release for a change.. | 01:10 |
| ahave | Hello, using ubuntu.. trying to setup a SAMBA share, and i get this error: http://img175.imageshack.us/my.php?image=halpqa0.png Can anyone advise? | 01:10 |
| Bidget | Ive finally gotten steam to work but it will connect and then the game will close | 01:10 |
| tom_ | Is there a way to pause output -- like the "pause" dos command? I'd like to have an icon do a quick ls -l on something, but I don't want my terminal to close when it's done -- I'd like to be able to read it | 01:10 |
| Bidget | doesn't matter if its hl2, cd, dod, tf2 | 01:10 |
| Bidget | I can connect to the server, but as soon as the motd goes up to display, the game crashes | 01:11 |
| sammyF_ | glederfein: do you have "Terminal Server Client" in the "internet menu" N* | 01:11 |
| Bidget | its weird | 01:11 |
| AaronMT | tom_ pipe your command into more | 01:11 |
| b1n0ry | Bidget: is it an app crash? | 01:11 |
| AaronMT | ls -al | more | 01:11 |
| glederfein | sammyF_ yes | 01:11 |
| Bidget | no steam is still open | 01:11 |
| sammyF_ | cubexombi: I'm afraid I won't be much help then | 01:11 |
| Bidget | its just the game that crashes | 01:11 |
| b1n0ry | that is bizarre | 01:11 |
| AaronMT | !more | tom_ | 01:11 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about more - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 01:11 |
| Bidget | yeah I know | 01:11 |
| sammyF_ | glederfein: open it up | 01:11 |
| Bidget | I would think that the entire thing would go down | 01:11 |
| b1n0ry | wine-x? | 01:11 |
| glederfein | sammyF_ ok, now what? | 01:12 |
| Bidget | and it is a loooonnnngggg console error | 01:12 |
| tom_ | AaronMT: that will only pause if it fills the screen though, right? what if there are only two files in there | 01:12 |
| tom_ | AaronMT: I just | less and it works | 01:12 |
| Bidget | Im on wine 9.59 | 01:12 |
| sammyF_ | glederfein: add the server you want to connect to | 01:12 |
| cubexombi | sammyF_: tis all good. I'd just like some more realestate on my deasktop | 01:12 |
| noah | i just noticed that the process that owned the port is listed in ps like so: 12978 1984 1955 634 63.5 0.0 0 0 ? Zl Apr04 11900:32 [java] <defunct> | 01:13 |
| sammyF_ | cubexombi: I hear you. I'm currently using 2880x1200 of that realestate, and sometimes it's not enough ;) | 01:13 |
| glederfein | sammyF_ under "Domain" in "General"? | 01:13 |
| Bidget | on another note.... has anyone had any luck programming the media keys on a logitech g15 keyboard? | 01:13 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !keys | 01:13 |
| ubotu | Keyboard shortcuts can be set in System -> Preferences -> Keyboard Shortcuts. If your multimedia keys don't work with that, try the 'keytouch' package, explained at http://keytouch.sourceforge.net - See !Keyboard for changing layouts | 01:13 |
| Bidget | keytouch... ok | 01:13 |
| chelz | ooh nice | 01:13 |

| * cubexombi shakes fist | 01:14 | |
| cubexombi | heheh | 01:14 |
| sammyF_ | glederfein: type the url of the server you want to connect to in computer, your username, and the domain | 01:14 |
| chelz | finally gonna use my F keys | 01:14 |
| Bidget | ok so Jack_Sparrow Im in the keyboard shortcuts... how do I get rid of a shortcut | 01:14 |
| sammyF_ | cubexombi: but with a nvidia card, I had it real easy | 01:14 |
| glederfein | sammyF_ but I can't find the PPTP VPN protocol there... | 01:14 |
| Starseed | bout to make the plunge to 8.04 .. should be good | 01:14 |
| Bidget | Jack_Sparrow, the key Im wanting to use for play/pause is already being taken by pause so Im wondering how to void out a keyboard shortcut entry | 01:14 |
| Bidget | Jack_Sparrow, oh wow Im retarded, never mind hahahahaha | 01:15 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Bidget, Sorry, but very busy elsewhere.... all I can say is read the info on that link. | 01:15 |
| b1n0ry | hmm.. lots of themes to make linux look like mac, not a whole lot to make it look like windows | 01:15 |
| nooga | :> | 01:15 |

| b1n0ry | probably because i'm on 16:9 resolution | 01:18 |
| sammyF_ | glederfein: no. it should have opened a window | 01:18 |

| mutk | Bidget, If I Recal Correctly | 01:25 |
| ChaosParser | Starnestommy: Eh, I figured they typo'd. | 01:26 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: hmm ... okay, a wild guess would be you have a nforce onboard soundcard | 01:26 |

| sammyF_ | wooting: ... which sadly means it SHOULD work out of the box | 01:26 |
| Bidget | ah ok | 01:26 |
| Bidget | thanks | 01:26 |
| Bidget | has anyone used enlightenment? | 01:26 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: you don't have ANY sound at all? | 01:26 |
| LjL | !anyone | 01:26 |
| Bidget | I installed it but it doesnt show up anywhere hahahaha | 01:26 |
| ubotu | A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 01:26 |
| wooting | sammyF_, it used an AMD chip | 01:26 |
| SeaPhor | LordValuemart: who is your email through? | 01:26 |
| wooting | sammyF_, no sound | 01:26 |
| DB42 | to whoever fixed the usb quirk for the "microsoft sound system 80" thanks, it works perfectly now | 01:26 |
| Scunizi | Bidget, you have to log out and then change "sessions" on the login screen | 01:27 |
| Bidget | thanks Scunizi | 01:27 |
| Tonisius | how do I search for mysql packages from the apt-get repo? | 01:27 |
| Shuggle | hi, my wireless card won't go into monitor mode with the bcm43xx driver. is there anything i can do? | 01:27 |
| Scunizi | Bidget, np.. it's the same thing if you install kubuntu-desktop,, you could have all 3! :) | 01:27 |
| Alex6691 | How do i install wine through the website? because when it says type wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - into terminal, it wont work. | 01:27 |
| DB42 | Tonisius, apt-cache search mysql ? | 01:27 |
| usser | Tonisius, apt-get search mysql* | 01:27 |
| Auctionedllama | Hey mates, whenever I run the sudo modprobe fglrx it says its not installed, but yet it is | 01:27 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: what system is set in the sound preference panel | 01:28 |
| Auctionedllama | How can I fix this? | 01:28 |
| b1n0ry | i'm finding all the nvidia-glx stuff, where do i get ati's? | 01:28 |
| Tonisius | thanks DB42 | 01:28 |
| LjL | Auctionedllama: what exactly does it say? | 01:28 |
| usser | apt-cache rather | 01:28 |
| bonhoffer | hey it doesn't look like x11 forwarding is working with my remove ubuntu server -- do i have to install/enable anything on the server side? | 01:28 |
| Moridin333 | alex6691 what's the error message? | 01:28 |
| phish | I installed ubuntu 8.04 beta and now my sound isn't working _at_all_. What can i do? | 01:28 |
| wooting | sammyF_, well i cant open sound preferences by left clicking the icon.. | 01:28 |
| Auctionedllama | It says, not used in xorg.conf so its not loading it | 01:28 |
| wooting | sammyF_, nothing happens | 01:28 |
| Alex6691 | gpg: can't open `': No such file or directory | 01:29 |
| croddy | man i hate that error so much | 01:29 |
| usser | phish, wait for release | 01:29 |
| phish | usser: in the meantime though? | 01:29 |
| Auctionedllama | and lsmod also says its no installed | 01:29 |
| usser | phish, or ask in ubuntu+1 | 01:29 |
| wooting | sammyF_, perhaps it might not located the device | 01:29 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: Sytem->preferences->sound doesn't open anything?? | 01:29 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: syStem even ;) | 01:29 |
| wooting | sammyF_, it does! thanks! | 01:29 |
| Tonisius | ok, where are the mysql-devel packages? | 01:29 |
| Tonisius | I can | 01:29 |
| wooting | sammyF_, what am i looking for here? | 01:29 |
| Tonisius | I can't seem to find them | 01:29 |
| Moridin333 | sammyF_ try lspci -tv and look for the audio controller | 01:29 |
| LjL | Auctionedllama, then it's not selected as your Xorg driver. « sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg » and select it. | 01:30 |
| Alex6691 | gpg: can't open `': No such file or directory | 01:30 |
| Alex6691 | thats my error message | 01:30 |
| Tonisius | I already got the mysql-server, mysql-client, now I'm just missing the mysql-devel... | 01:30 |
| Auctionedllama | If I do that then I got a black screen upon bootup with only way around it is to go into recovery and reset it back to vesa | 01:30 |
| usser | Tonisius, in debian and ubuntu its dev not devel | 01:30 |
| sammyF_ | Moridin333: good call :) | 01:30 |
| usser | Tonisius, so its most likely something like mysql-server-der | 01:30 |
| usser | *dev | 01:30 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: what's selected for Sound Playback? | 01:30 |
| Tonisius | usser: I can't find dev either | 01:30 |
| LjL | Auctionedllama, then you have some problem that's unrelated with modprobe's error. if the driver is not selected in xorg.conf, then it's normal that modprobe would give you that error. | 01:31 |
| cube | hey moderator can i post a url in here | 01:31 |
| Moridin333 | alex6691 there should be two things to enter in the terminal check the website again. one is the repo and one is the key | 01:31 |
| wooting | sammyF_, auto | 01:31 |
| Tonisius | E: Couldn't find package mysql-dev | 01:31 |
| wooting | sammyF_, but if i click test it say audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Failed to connect stream: Invalid argument | 01:31 |
| usser | Tonisius, hang on i'll look it uo | 01:31 |
| Alex6691 | sudo wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/sources.list.d/gutsy.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list | 01:31 |
| Auctionedllama | alright, so how do I fix this error? if I select the driver in restricted drivers manager I get the black screen | 01:31 |
| Alex6691 | should it be there im puttin in terminal? | 01:31 |
| Moridin333 | sammyF_ thx there's a great pdf called unixtoolbox, that's where I found it. I use it all the time. you might want to google it. | 01:31 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: what options to you have? | 01:31 |
| Tonisius | Thanks, I'm still looking around too | 01:31 |
| Auctionedllama | and I tried installing the patch from linux, but that did nothing | 01:31 |
| wooting | alsa esd open pulse | 01:32 |
| bonhoffer | i ask if i need to install extras to get gtk working (don't i need that for x11) | 01:32 |
| wooting | sammyF_, alsa esd open pulse | 01:32 |
| Moridin333 | alex6691 give me one sec and I'll try from the website. | 01:32 |
| Alex6691 | thanks. | 01:32 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: okay, try setting it to pulse and do the test again | 01:32 |
| wooting | sammyF_, audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Failed to connect stream: Invalid argument | 01:32 |
| glederfein | Hey sammyF_ I just checked and I CAN connect to the server on windows! | 01:32 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: then set it to alsa | 01:33 |
| bonhoffer | sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev might do it ??? | 01:33 |
| wooting | sammyF_, audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Failed to connect stream: Invalid argument | 01:33 |
| glederfein | sammyF_ and I can't ping it either.. | 01:33 |
| sammyF_ | glederfein: outsch ... then I'm afraid I'm out of my depth | 01:33 |
| wooting | sammyF_, all have this same errors | 01:33 |
| glederfein | sammyF_ you know anyone who can help me? | 01:33 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: okay ... let's do what moritini said ... | 01:33 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: do you know how to open a console? | 01:33 |
| wooting | yes! | 01:34 |
| Moridin333 | alex6691 first enter wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - | 01:34 |
| Narlzac85 | I just changed my motherboard processor ram and graphics card without reinstalling and my system has locked up twice. Is there any reason why I should actually reinstall instead of waiting for hardy | 01:34 |
| sammyF_ | glederfein: ask again here, I'm afraid ... | 01:34 |
| wooting | sammyF_, i opened it | 01:34 |
| Alex6691 | Terminal just said | 01:34 |
| christo_z | Hello I have a serious problem with the top panel on my Desktom i cannot use system tray icons anymore ...for example i cannot use ktorrent because there is nowhere on my Desktop to see it!!!HELP | 01:34 |
| Alex6691 | ''OK'' | 01:34 |
| Moridin333 | alex6691 then sudo wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/sources.list.d/gutsy.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list | 01:34 |
| Moridin333 | alex6691 then sudo apt-get install wine | 01:34 |
| glederfein | please help me connect to a VPN PPTP server! | 01:34 |
| Auctionedllama | LJL_ any suggestions? | 01:35 |
| Drod | I compiled from source transmission (borrent client), how do I execute it now? | 01:35 |
| Alex6691 | moridin333 terminal just said OK is that right? | 01:35 |
| christo_z | Is there any command to roll back Desktop's defaults? | 01:35 |
| Dr_willis | christo_z, the 'system tray' is an applet you can add to the panel. Perhaps you removed yours some how. | 01:35 |
| usser | Tonisius, try this one libmysql++-dev | 01:35 |
| glederfein | anyone with knowledge in networking... | 01:35 |
| Moridin333 | alex6691 oh wait you already have it install. in that case you want to sudo apt-get upgrade. | 01:35 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: type lscpci -tv and paste the result at rafb.net ,then tell me the link :) | 01:35 |
| Moridin333 | alex6691 that's right | 01:35 |
| LjL | Auctionedllama: aside from using the open source drivers, nope. i'm on nvidia. | 01:35 |
| croddy | "notification area" is the gnome name for the system tray btw | 01:35 |
| Dr_willis | christo_z, delete the various .gnome and .gtk dirs is one way to reset the desktop. (a little hard core but doable) | 01:35 |
| wooting | sammyF_, http://pastebin.ca/988971 | 01:35 |
| Alex6691 | Thanks its upgrading. | 01:35 |
| Tonisius | usser: that's not the right one.... | 01:35 |
| Alex6691 | Then my game should run smooth? | 01:35 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: or pastebin ;) | 01:35 |
| Tonisius | That's the C++ api for MySQL | 01:35 |
| wooting | sammyF_, my friend works pastebin | 01:36 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: one sec ... checking | 01:36 |
| wooting | haha | 01:36 |
| wooting | ok | 01:36 |
| Auctionedllama | ok where can I get the fglrx driver + xgl? | 01:36 |
| Moridin333 | alex6691 great. I hope this fixes your problem. the ubuntu version had a lot of bugs in it. | 01:36 |
| usser | Tonisius, how about this one libmysqlclient15-dev | 01:36 |
| javb | hello, look, when i im in front or very near to my access point, my wireless connection works GREAT. but when i am a little bit away (69%, says the signal meter), it will just lose connectivity, ANY IDEA GUYS? | 01:36 |
| SeaPhor | calc: if you're listening, Thanks for all of your time and help | 01:36 |
| Alex6691 | Haha, i noticed :P. | 01:36 |
| Alex6691 | and thanks | 01:36 |
| Alex6691 | It'd downloading the upgrade now. | 01:36 |
| Moridin333 | alex6691 my pleasure | 01:36 |
| christo_z | Dr_willis...Doc i suppose these are hidden folder's at /home...what will be the next step? | 01:36 |
| Alex6691 | Taking quite some time though lol | 01:36 |
| Dr_willis | christo_z, . files are considered 'hidden' - remove/rename them.. logout/backin.. | 01:37 |
| Auctionedllama | LJL_ where can I get the fglrx driver +XGL? | 01:37 |
| Moridin333 | alex6691 yea, it's a pretty big change. wine is one of the few apps that you want to have the absolute newest version imho. | 01:37 |
| glederfein | can ANYONE help me connect to a VPN server?? | 01:37 |
| Dr_willis | !vpn | glederfein | 01:37 |
| ubotu | glederfein: From more information on vpn please refer to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Gaming_VPN_Using_PPTPD | 01:37 |
| Fdisk93 | i have a question about swapspace | 01:37 |
| Tonisius | glederfein: did you try google first? | 01:37 |
| LjL | Auctionedllama: eh? the fglrx driver is just the driver that isn't working for you. | 01:37 |
| christo_z | Dr_willis...so you mean by logging into my system back new hidden files (of these ) will be created ... right? | 01:38 |
| Alex6691 | Is wine a good program for ubuntu then? | 01:38 |
| javb | any idea people? :. | 01:38 |
| bonhoffer | is there any way to test if basic x11 is working? | 01:38 |
| javb | hello, look, when i im in front or very near to my access point, my wireless connection works GREAT. but when i am a little bit away (69%, says the signal meter), it will just lose connectivity, ANY IDEA GUYS? | 01:38 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: aeh ... I don't see any soundcard in there oO | 01:38 |
| bonhoffer | do i have to have something other than a bare server installed? | 01:38 |
| Fdisk93 | i have 2gb of ram will i notice any performance loss if i dont use swapspace 32 bit | 01:38 |
| Dr_willis | christo_z, if they dont exist gnome will use the system defaults | 01:38 |
| wooting | sammyF_, i know it has 1! i used it in window | 01:38 |
| LjL | Alex6691: "a good program for ubuntu", most generic question ever i think | 01:38 |
| wooting | sammyF_, and it has the green port | 01:38 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: pretty sure it has one | 01:38 |
| Auctionedllama | LJL_ mhmmh can you link me to a wiki to follow besides ubuntu.com/community/binarydriverhowto/ati? | 01:38 |
| christo_z | Dri_willis...ok thanks doc brb | 01:38 |
| Dr_willis | Fdisk93, i always make at least 512mb swap partition - just in case | 01:38 |
| Alex6691 | Lol | 01:38 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: It just looks like Ubuntu didn't recognize it at all somehow | 01:39 |
| LjL | Auctionedllama: that's the one that i know | 01:39 |
| Alex6691 | Oh, while im here, is there anyway you can sync iPod's with Rhythmbox? | 01:39 |
| Moridin333 | alex6691 I suppose it depends on what you mean by good. it has never messed my system up. But there are many unsupported windows apps. it's always a work in progress. | 01:39 |
| wooting | sammyF_, damnit! any way? | 01:39 |
| Auctionedllama | Oh man | 01:39 |
| evilbug | what are the applications that are closest to Dreamweaver and Flash? | 01:39 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: one sec ... thinking and trying something out | 01:39 |
| Alex6691 | It support's exe file's so im happy. | 01:39 |
| LjL | Alex6691: i think so, since the package description of rhythmbox claims iPod integration | 01:39 |
| Auctionedllama | LJL_ Well, I can't get that to run at all, .. I have been working on this 4 days, as you can imagine this is very frustrating | 01:39 |
| usser | evilbug, just run flash and dreamweaver last i heard wine support mx2 | 01:39 |
| wooting | sammyF_, thanks. your the best guy | 01:39 |
| Moridin333 | evilbug if you mean a wysiwyg app there are a few in add/remove programs. | 01:40 |
| elpargo | anyone knows of a program where I can edit the magic numbers of a file, I got this text file but for some reason most programs are reading it as binary. | 01:40 |
| sammyF_ | evilbug: nothing for flash, Bluefish for dreamweaver I'd say | 01:40 |
| Fdisk93 | ive got 1gb set as swap now along with my 4gb of ram 4gb is what i ment to say i had | 01:40 |
| Alex6691 | Well how do i do it? cuz when i connect my ipod it doesnt give me an option or anything. | 01:40 |
| Dr_willis | Auctionedllama, ati can be a problem. basicially you install the fglrx drivers that ati supplies and hope it works... | 01:40 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: nope ... if I was the best I'd already have solved your problem ;) | 01:40 |
| glederfein | ubotu isn't this ( https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Gaming_VPN_Using_PPTPD) for making a VPN server? | 01:40 |
| Dr_willis | Auctionedllama, the next ubuntu release should have updated ati drivers. that may work better. | 01:40 |
| LjL | elpargo, there is no magic number in a text file. if it's a text file, it means it's a text file. not sure how to put this... a text file is just a sequence of the various ASCII (or Unicode) values for the characters. | 01:40 |
| yago | hi, | 01:40 |
| tmccrary | Its-a you! Lorenzo! Mamma Mia! | 01:40 |
| Auctionedllama | Dr_willis can I get studio for that? | 01:40 |
| evilbug | thanks! | 01:40 |
| sammyF_ | evilbug: but both runs well in wine | 01:41 |
| Fdisk93 | i know in xp it cant see my entire 4gb but i use no pagefile in windows i notice a little slower performance | 01:41 |
| yago | I wish ask you something, | 01:41 |
| Auctionedllama | Dr_willis I just really want to get compiz to work | 01:41 |
| LjL | tmccrary: you aren't funny. you were also answered in ##linux just after you left. | 01:41 |
| jrib | elpargo: make sure you didn't set executable permissions on it | 01:41 |
| yago | can anyone go www.ubuntu-es.org | 01:41 |
| christo_z | Dri_willis...oops...there aren't any .gnome and .gtk foder in my home dir | 01:41 |
| elpargo | LjL, the file contains text, but it seems the original editor in which it was made put some random things on the top. | 01:41 |
| Dr_willis | Auctionedllama, No idea. - You could go get the RC when it comes out tomorrow and try it. | 01:41 |
| christo_z | Dri_willis...only some gconf ...e.t.c | 01:41 |
| Auctionedllama | dr_willis_ RC? Also... should I use ENVY? | 01:41 |
| mc-george | Hello, I can get the network settings to see my wireless connection, just not use it | 01:41 |
| Moridin333 | auctionedllama if I remember correctly the opensource ati driver will work with compiz but not the one from ati themselves | 01:41 |
| Auctionedllama | I am just very frustrated D: | 01:41 |
| Alex6691 | How do i sync my ipod in rhythmbox then? because everyone i connect it i cant figure it out. | 01:41 |
| glederfein | Dr_willis you can help me with my VPN connection problem? | 01:42 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: on an off chance, you might try to reinstall the nvidia-kernel in synaptic | 01:42 |
| Dr_willis | Auctionedllama, i would not touch envy at all. | 01:42 |
| Auctionedllama | Moridin333_ can you link me to this? | 01:42 |
| Auctionedllama | Dr_willis_ alright mate | 01:42 |
| elpargo | jrib, 644 and I got 2 files that come from the same person, so I'm almost certain it's her editor. | 01:42 |
| Moridin333 | auctionedllama sure let me look it up real quick. | 01:42 |
| Dr_willis | christo_z, those sound about right. theres a lot of didferent .g* config files and dirs. | 01:42 |
| LjL | elpargo: well open it in any text editor, and cut the gibberish part | 01:42 |
| wooting | sammyF_, how to do it? | 01:42 |
| ari_stress | morning all. is there any "rc.local" in ubuntu? | 01:42 |
| Dr_willis | glederfein, i know diddly-squat about vpn. other then the !vpn factoid | 01:42 |
| Dr_willis | ari_stress, yes.. /etc/rc.local | 01:42 |

| sammyF_ | wooting: open synaptic (system->Administration->synaptic) and search for nvidia-kernel | 01:43 |

| elpargo | LjL, well the thing is that the only program reading the text is my local vim. | 01:44 |
| javb | has someone here had this bug? (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/153683) and in any way fixed it? | 01:44 |
| Alex6691 | Ah, okay. | 01:44 |
| Alex6691 | Thanks though :) | 01:44 |
| LjL | elpargo: nano doesn't read it? | 01:44 |

| Dr_willis | christo_z, move them to a different directory. that way you can move them back if you want | 01:45 |
| Alex6691 | It's really annoying, i've not been able to Update my iPod since i've deleted Windows. ;/ | 01:45 |
| Fishscen1 | nvm. I'm like, an hour out of date | 01:45 |

| wooting | sammyF_, ok i reinstall common | 01:46 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: sigh ... it's already installed, but well ... can't hurt : rightclick on it, and select "Mark for reinstallation" | 01:46 |
| Alex6691 | bazhang, if i search amarok in synaptic, will i find it? | 01:46 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: lol ... was going to say that ;) | 01:46 |
| glederfein | Tonisius are you there? | 01:46 |
| LjL | elpargo: is it english text? | 01:46 |
| wooting | sammyF_, ok. nothing left to do? | 01:46 |
| elpargo | I believe the file was made with either notepad2 or notepad++ in windows. and transfer over from svn with tortoise very weird indeed :) | 01:46 |
| christo_z | ok thanks for the tip | 01:46 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: check that pulseaudio is installed too | 01:46 |
| elpargo | LjL, it's supposed to be unicode. | 01:47 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: but if it appears in the list, it is | 01:47 |
| bazhang | Alex6691: should do; though if you are using gnome it will install some kde stuff | 01:47 |
| RunKidRun | is Ubuntu Ultimate Edition legal in the United States of America? | 01:47 |

| glederfein | PLEASE help me connect to a VPN server! I tried following online guides with no success! | 01:48 |
| Dr_willis | elpargo, when transfering text files from windows to linux. often there can be CarrageReturn/LineFeed issues. | 01:48 |
| Moridin333 | auctionedllama I can't seem to find the name of the opensource driver. you can check the ubuntu forums. | 01:48 |
| elpargo | LjL, no no true. utf-8 english is not ascii, because of the simbols. but I think the encoding died there really bad. | 01:48 |
| bazhang | Alex6691: sure sudo apt-get install amarok | 01:48 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: try the sound panel again | 01:48 |
| Alex6691 | thanks :) | 01:48 |
| wooting | sammyF_, nothing | 01:48 |
| Auctionedllama | mordin333_ ok thanks mate | 01:48 |
| LjL | elpargo, which symbols? | 01:48 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: BLEH! | 01:48 |
| modoc_ | is there a way to tell what process is listening on a particular port? | 01:48 |
| elpargo | Dr_willis, yea that will cause full lines with no linebreak, this is an encoding issue. | 01:48 |

| phillipsjk256 | ljl ASCII is actually a subset of UTF-8 | 01:49 |
| elpargo | LjL, copyright for example. | 01:49 |
| Dr_willis | elpargo, yep. theres converter tools that can fix it. in my case the First like #!/bin/perl had a CR/LF at the end.. thta made the whole script break. :) took me forger to figure it out | 01:49 |
| elpargo | phillipsjk256, wrong because AScii is older. you can't be a subset if you where first. | 01:49 |
| wooting | sammyF_, maybe someway to find out what mothercard i have? and then install the drivers for audio? | 01:49 |
| n | #ubuntu | 01:49 |
| javb | has someone here had this bug? (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/153683) and in any way fixed it? | 01:49 |

| Fdisk93 | i use metapad txt editer for windows so i dont have those issues | 01:50 |
| elpargo | Dr_willis, LFCR won't change a text file to be recognized as binary. | 01:50 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: let's try something else | 01:50 |
| wooting | oks | 01:50 |
| wooting | okay | 01:50 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: in a console, type "pulseaudio --check" | 01:51 |
| Dr_willis | elpargo, load it into an editor and see then. :) i havent been paying attention to the convo. | 01:51 |
| elpargo | Dr_willis, as for the converter sure vim. | 01:51 |
| LjL | n: /join #channel or /j #channel to join a channel. | 01:51 |
| Sam827 | Please help: When I boot up my dell that is running Gutsy, every time it tells me charge on system batter is low. strike f1... blah blah blah | 01:51 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: just in caseyou don't know : you can autocomplete lines by pressing TAB once in a console | 01:51 |
| phillipsjk256 | elpargo since when? UTF-8 is almost too huge to call a superset of ASCII :) | 01:51 |
| elpargo | Dr_willis, all binary except if I open it up on vim. | 01:51 |
| LjL | phillipsjk256: i know, that's why i specified *english* text. but elpargo is right, there are symbols used in english that aren't in ascii | 01:51 |
| wooting | sammyF_, i know. ok i did it. nothing output | 01:51 |
| Dr_willis | elpargo, whats telling you it is binary anyway? | 01:51 |
| Zackymc_k | phow do i search for a spific file on my other parition | 01:52 |
| zero__ | Hey, i have a widescreen monitor on my laptop, and i tried to set up a secondary monitor, it didnt work, now my laptop display is all wrong, and i cant change it back | 01:52 |
| elpargo | phillipsjk256, since ever. UTF was molded after ASCII to be backwards compatible. | 01:52 |
| LjL | elpargo, the concept of "subset" has never been defined based on age... ASCII *is* a subset of UTF-8, that's basically why UTF-8 exists to begin with | 01:52 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: so pulseaudio isn't running | 01:52 |
| Moridin333 | zero__ is there a key to change from crt to lcd like fn F4 | 01:52 |
| wooting | sammyF_, how can i make it | 01:52 |
| elpargo | Dr_willis, file, and every crappy text editor. and/or tool. | 01:52 |
| Auctionedllama | MAN, turns out the x1600 can't use the open source drivers.. so I think I'm screwed | 01:52 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: try "pulseaudio --log-level=4 --check" | 01:53 |
| zero__ | mordidin, let me check that | 01:53 |
| wooting | I: main.c: We're in the group 'pulse-rt', allowing real-time and high-priority scheduling. | 01:53 |
| wooting | I: main.c: Daemon running as PID 5434 | 01:53 |
| Moridin333 | auctionedllama unfortunatly nvidia is the way to go in linux right now. | 01:53 |
| zero__ | Moridin333, ill check, but i still want my 1440x900 back on my laptop display | 01:53 |
| Dr_willis | elpargo, you sure its not been made executable? Im missing the core problem.. if its an ascii file.. do whatever ya want to it and be done with it.. :) | 01:53 |
| elpargo | LjL, sry but UTF-8 doesn't exists because of ASCII, unicode exists because the world is a big place bigger than 256 characters. | 01:53 |
| === ikonia_ is now known as ikonia | ||
| Moridin333 | zero__ if you press that a few times it might work | 01:53 |
| LjL | elpargo: no, that is the reason that *Unicode* exists. UTF-8 is just an encoding of Unicode. | 01:54 |
| wooting | sammyF_, i pasted it above | 01:54 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: ah ... now I think we're in business | 01:54 |
| Auctionedllama | moridin333_ alrighty, I am just, really feeling down D:, but I am wondering, how last night before I formatted how I got my 1400x900 resolution working | 01:54 |
| Zackymc_k | Is there a way to search for a specific file on my vista partition | 01:54 |
| wooting | sammyF_, :) | 01:54 |
| elpargo | Dr_willis, yea I'm opening it up and all I get is garbage. | 01:54 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: are you using 8.04 or 7.10 ? | 01:54 |
| wooting | sammyF_, 8.04 because same issue in 7.10 | 01:54 |
| wooting | thought it fix it | 01:54 |
| elpargo | LjL, ok u got a point on the utf-8 part. :) | 01:54 |
| beener | how do i get ndiswrapper to work | 01:54 |
| LjL | elpargo: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subset http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8 | 01:55 |
| nickrud | Zackymc_k find <windows partition> -iname filespec | 01:55 |
| Moridin333 | auctionedllama if you're comfortable with command line backup you xorg.conf and try different drivers in System>Administration>Screens and Graphics | 01:55 |
| beener | i just reformated from kubuntu to this and i dont want to use the driver thats already here | 01:55 |
| Dr_willis | elpargo, thats.. weird. | 01:55 |
| m0u5e | has hardyRC1 been released yet? | 01:55 |
| wooting | sammyF_, but also 8.04 fixed video play in youtube. before its broekn | 01:55 |
| zero__ | ok Moridin333, that fixed my external monitor issue, now how to i get back to 1440x900 on m;y laptop? | 01:55 |
| phillipsjk256 | elpargo: just nitpicking, but ASCII has only~127 chars (7 bit) (I read up on UTF-8 when the w3c told me to use it) | 01:55 |
| LjL | !hardy > m0u5e (m0u5e, see the private message from Ubotu) | 01:55 |
| m0u5e | i know they delayed it until tomorrow, but... i wonder if its there :X | 01:55 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: one sec ... I have the same problem with pulseaudio, so I'll fix it on my comp and then tell you how to do it :) | 01:55 |
| elpargo | cat and vim are reading it as text, everything else thinks it's binary. | 01:55 |
| Dr_willis | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASCII#Unicode | 01:55 |
| wooting | sammyF_, 1 problem. i need to run | 01:55 |
| Moridin333 | zero__ try Preferences>Screen Resolution | 01:55 |
| Auctionedllama | moridin333_ I don't have that option | 01:56 |
| fabricio | BrASIL | 01:56 |
| Dr_willis | elpargo, i wonder if its like the first line thats some nonprinting char thats confusing things. | 01:56 |
| wooting | sammyF_, another way to contact you tonight? at home i have windows. but can you mail me solution? | 01:56 |
| m0u5e | well when i type update-manager -d it tells me that I am about to download hardy RC | 01:56 |

| zero__ | Moridin333, 1440x900 is not available, and its not showing my graphics card anymore,a nd i dont know what to select for that, i have an Nvidia Gforce FX 64 mb | 01:56 |
| wooting | sammyF_, my friends waiting outside me in 4 minute | 01:56 |
| m0u5e | is that text file just pre-emptive, or is there already an image of hardy RC up there? | 01:56 |
| Drew_l | Hello, I'm having trouble installing restricted drivers. I want to install my ATI accelerated graphics driver and my Firmware for Broadcom 43xx chipset family but when I try to enable the drivers I revieve an error saying "The software source for this package *package here* is not enabled." I don't know what I ought to do. I tried installing the one for my Wireless card but it said "Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: libc6". I tried to update libc6 but | 01:56 |
| elpargo | phillipsjk256, yes and no. ASCII has 127 chars but all implementations have an extra table in the upper bit, so everycomputer today has a 256 bit ASCII although the above 128 chars are not guaranteed to be the same in all computers. | 01:57 |
| Dr_willis | elpargo, ive used fte befor - it can show non-printing chars , its helped me track down odd things like this befor | 01:57 |
| LjL | m0u5e, we don't know, ask in #ubuntu+1 | 01:57 |
| Moridin333 | zero__ if you run the restricted driver manager in System>Administration it should give you the nvidia driver and open up that option. | 01:57 |
| nickrud | !gutsysources | Drew_l , this, then try again | 01:57 |
| ubotu | Drew_l , this, then try again: gutsysources is in System->Admin->Software Sources, enable (main) (universe) (restricted) and (multiverse) and disable the Cdrom on the Ubuntu Software tab. On the Updates tab, enable (gutsy-security) and (gutsy-updates). | 01:57 |
| zero__ | it says its in use Moridin333 | 01:57 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: check the private message I sent you | 01:57 |
| Dr_willis | m0u5e, it will be released when its released. :) | 01:57 |
| Moridin333 | auctionedllama what version are you using? | 01:57 |
| m0u5e | Dr_willis: i'm just so excited :( | 01:57 |
| Moridin333 | auctionedllama of ubuntu I mean. | 01:57 |
| elpargo | Dr_willis, fte? or was that a typo? | 01:57 |
| Moridin333 | zero__ nv or nvidia? | 01:58 |
| zero__ | Moridin333, should i disable it, logout then re enable it? | 01:58 |
| wooting | sammyF_, no message | 01:58 |

| wooting | sammyF_, you have aim? | 01:59 |
| elpargo | Dr_willis, that's showing yet a different output :P | 01:59 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: sigh .. you're cursed ;) | 01:59 |
| Moridin333 | auctioonedllama hmmm. see if there is anything about graphics in the administration. if there isn't run the alacart menu editor and see if it is just not showing. | 01:59 |
| Auctionedllama | I got that trying to install an ATI driver | 01:59 |
| * elpargo thinks they may be UTF-16 | 01:59 | |
| LjL | elpargo, ASCII *has* only 127 characters. if you're using the 8th bit to represent different characters than the 127 that ASCII specifies, then it's not ASCII that you're using | 01:59 |
| calc | SeaPhor: yep still around | 01:59 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: yes, but I seriously don't like saying my account name in HERE | 01:59 |

| wooting | sammyF_, ok. can i give you my email? | 01:59 |
| sammyF_ | wooting: and neither should you | 01:59 |
| SeaPhor | calc: coolness~:-)) | 01:59 |

| Auctionedllama | Moridin333_ I got this error trying to install a driver component: Error! Could not locate fglrx.ko for module fglrx in the DKMS tree. | 02:00 |

| Auctionedllama | how do I do that? | 02:00 |

| bazhang | wooting: sammyF_ create a channel #sammyF_ and do it there | 02:00 |
| Drew_l | nickrud, Thank you, it is working. What should I do when everything is done? What settings for software sources should I keep it as? | 02:00 |
| nickrud | Drew_l that's a very good set of sources for everyday use | 02:01 |
| Moridin333 | auctionedllama to run alacarte? just press alt F2 or open a terminal and type alacarte. | 02:01 |
| wooting | ok im there bazhang | 02:01 |
| Auctionedllama | nono, scroll up moridin33 | 02:01 |

| bazhang | no problem guys ;] | 02:01 |
| Moridin333 | auctionedllama I'm not understanding what you're doing. are you trying to build the driver from souorce? | 02:01 |
| wooting | sammyF_, im in #sammyF_ | 02:01 |
| LjL | elpargo: where? | 02:02 |
| Auctionedllama | im trying to install the driver from ATI | 02:02 |
| Auctionedllama | it unpacked itself and now I need to install its components | 02:02 |
| nickrud | Drew_l yeah, leave it as that. That way he can get all the stuff that the friend will see listed as available in ubuntu, and will be able to keep up with security and bug fixes | 02:02 |
| Auctionedllama | And.. the first component gave me that error.. | 02:02 |
| Moridin333 | auctioonedllama I don't know how to do that. you could check the forums or do a google search with the driver version number and ubuntu. | 02:02 |
| Drew_l | nickrud, Thank you infinitely. You have done me a great service. Have a nice day. I must enter the land of resetting! | 02:03 |

| periscope | I'm trying to install games with wine via steam, and it is reporting that I don't have enough space because it is reading the avail. space from the 10gb drive on which my file partition is mounted | 02:10 |
| Jordan_U | chuy_max, Is it a region 4 DVD? | 02:10 |
| periscope | but I know I have enough space | 02:10 |
| bazhang | m2geek: try a different mirror then | 02:10 |
| nickrud | Tonisius sudo tasksel install lamp (gets you the whole stack) | 02:10 |
| chuy_max | Jordan_U, positive | 02:10 |
| Tonisius | nickrud: what does lamp install in the end? | 02:10 |
| Tonisius | apache2? php5? | 02:10 |
| Tonisius | mysql5? | 02:10 |
| periscope | my steam is installed on this file partition but it still reports the incorrect available space | 02:11 |
| nickrud | Tonisius all that | 02:11 |
| AaronMT | Is it #DAB082? | 02:11 |
| izinucs | periscope, when you installed did you create a separate partition for /home? | 02:11 |
| bazhang | beener not sure how to help as I have intel wireless not broadcom | 02:11 |
| Tonisius | awesome, will do then | 02:11 |
| icesword | !lamp > Tonisius | 02:11 |
| AaronMT | Desktop Wallpaper -> Colours -> click the color box | 02:11 |
| noob13 | periscope: where is wine installed? | 02:11 |
| beener | o dern | 02:11 |
| m2geek | Thanks bazhang, I would if it wasnt for the fact local (inside nz) traffic doesnt count towards my monthly dsl cap hehe... | 02:11 |
| Tonisius | nickrud: it didn't do much of anything | 02:12 |
| periscope | izinucs, no. I have all my ubuntu things on my little 10gb partition, and all my files on the big one (or I am trying) | 02:12 |
| elpargo | Tonisius, keep it to one line, Linux Apache Mysql Perl/Php/Python | 02:12 |
| beener | is there anyone else that may be able to help me? | 02:12 |
| nickrud | Tonisius you already had apache, there's not much more to install. | 02:12 |
| periscope | noob13, default place, but I have steam installed on the file partition and that should, by default, install my games on it | 02:12 |
| bazhang | m2geek: mirrrors are likely slow as the next release RC is being released to day | 02:12 |
| Tonisius | nickrud: it didn't install php when I ran it | 02:12 |
| Jordan_U | periscope, Is /home on the 10 GB partition? | 02:13 |
| m2geek | Bazhang: thanks, that makes sence :) | 02:13 |
| hylinux | Will I use the unbuntu 8.04 64 version? I had installed it, but there are couple issues. anybody have the same problem with me? | 02:13 |
| hylinux | like some time the system die. | 02:13 |
| l815 | anyone know how to change the volume icon color? It's black and so is my taskbar which makes it difficult to see | 02:13 |
| Flannel | hylinux: #ubuntu+1 for 8.04 questions | 02:13 |
| RWB | how do I determine what Motherboard/chipset I have in linux? | 02:13 |
| periscope | Jordan_U, yes, I guess it would be. | 02:14 |
| izinucs | periscope, so the only place to install anything at this point is on the 10 gig partition... you're stuck | 02:14 |
| nickrud | Tonisius should have, at least libapache2mod-php5 (or a similar name, may have a dash off) | 02:14 |
| chuy_max | Jordan_U, why did you ask? | 02:14 |
| genii | RWB: From lshw | 02:14 |
| periscope | Jordan_U, do I have to specify otherwise when I am initiall installing ubuntu or is that something I could fix without formatting? | 02:14 |
| pukeko | m2geek: giday mate1 | 02:14 |
| pukeko | *! | 02:14 |

| m2geek | pukeko Hello Fellow Kiwi :) | 02:14 |
| chuy_max | Jordan_U, I'm almost sure I've played region 4 dvds in windows before | 02:15 |
| genii | RWB: The output is extensive from that command, perhaps pipe it to more eg: sudo lshw|more | 02:15 |
| nickrud | periscope you might consider starting over, and mounting the 10gb partition at ~/.wine ;) | 02:15 |
| Jordan_U | !home | periscope | 02:15 |
| ubotu | periscope: Your home folder is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For mounting your home folder on a separate partition, please see: http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome | 02:15 |
| beener | bazhang: do you know how to work ndiswrapper and modprobe then? | 02:15 |
| nickrud | periscope sorry, wrong nick | 02:15 |
| beener | though* | 02:15 |
| nickrud | or, right one | 02:15 |
| izinucs | periscope, is your data partition large? if so how large? | 02:16 |
| bazhang | beener: just from following the various tutorials; have you read any? | 02:16 |
| m2geek | (it sucks being a noob to irc (in chatzilla alteast)) | 02:16 |
| RWB | THANKS ;) | 02:16 |
| beener | yea but there not working | 02:16 |
| genii | RWB: You're welcome | 02:16 |
| beener | ive done this countless time on kubuntu | 02:16 |
| beener | m y first try of ubuntu and it doesnt work | 02:17 |
| periscope | izinucs, not huge, but much larger than the 6gb it is reporting. it has about 35 free gigs. | 02:17 |
| Jordan_U | periscope, you don't need to use an entirely separate /home though, you can probably simply copy your ~/.wine to your larger partition then make a symbolic link ( like an alias or shortcut if you don't know ) to it. | 02:17 |
| periscope | ubotu, thanks, I'll look into that. | 02:17 |
| chuy_max | Jordan_U, any ideas?, I've pasted regionset output, it is set to 4: http://pastebin.ca/989010 | 02:17 |
| m2geek | ttfn room, off to reboot after the updates (clean install this morning) took 2 hours to download (i have a 4.5mb dsl connection too, hence my being annoyed at the slow update) | 02:17 |
| m2geek | Ciao | 02:17 |
| m2geek | logout | 02:17 |
| izinucs | periscope, are you dual booting? and is that other partition formatted with NTS | 02:17 |
| m2geek | buhbye | 02:17 |
| izinucs | *ntfs | 02:17 |
| periscope | izinucs, no, single boot, and no, it is all ext3 | 02:18 |
| periscope | Jordan_U, sorry, I don't quite follow. I know what a symlink is, but where would I put the link to the moved .wine? | 02:18 |
| Joray | I have been trying to use the make command in my terminal for a good 10 minutes and it kjeeps outputting errors. I am runnign Ubuntu 7.10, everything is updated as well, any help? | 02:19 |
| nickrud | Joray depends on the errors, and if you ran ./configure (if needed) | 02:19 |
| izinucs | periscope, if this is a pretty fresh install you might consider reinstalling .. root or "/" should be between 10-12gigs.... swap mo more than 1 gig... /home the rest and you'll lbe ok | 02:19 |
| ccole0 | having an serious video performance issue with my laptop. It has a Radeon x300 card in it, but everything is slow, either effects on or off. What driver should I be using? | 02:19 |
| gogeta | i got my cxt modem working ;-) now all i need is to find a modem on hold asoftwhere | 02:20 |
| Jordan_U | periscope, It's hard to say clearly in words, you would do: cp ~/.wine /media/stuff/.wine ; ln -s /media/stuff/.wine ~/.wine | 02:21 |
| ccole0 | oh, sorry, I should have said, I am using 8.04 RC updated to current, but it was pretty bad even on the 7.10 version | 02:21 |
| gogeta | Jordan_U why? | 02:21 |

| gogeta | Jordan_U as long as your in the dir | 02:22 |

| beener | i installed the wirless network drivers | 02:32 |
| XTeLiS | well so everyone in here can get these files | 02:32 |

| mindrape | yup | 02:32 |
| nickrud | phoenix24 hm, (was away for a sec) I guess it's not handled by remove, but if you're sure beagle is gone, you can remove it. Maybe file a bug | 02:32 |
| beener | and unistalled and installed the driver (but the driver wont install | 02:32 |

| Orbixx | gogeta: I tell people to Google it all the tiem. | 02:37 |
| gogeta | shyster317 get the exras package you will | 02:37 |
| Slasher | PeterParkerSubZethen you should just be able to set the resolution from system->preferences->Screen Resolution, can you not? | 02:37 |
| thor | i have Conky set to startup, and when i log in it shows up fora few seconds but then disapears. I can see its still running as a process under the system monitor. If i start it manually i have no problems. Any ideas? | 02:37 |
| ToddEDM | hey guys , anyone here got Enemy Territory installed? | 02:37 |
| Dante123 | bazhang: do you think I am being too impatient....and it is going to load maybe just longer than usual? | 02:37 |
| nickrud | Orbixx I think gogeta means he googles it for them | 02:37 |
| bazhang | Dante123: how long before you hard reset it | 02:37 |
| gogeta | shyster317 and the win32codecs mplayer will play more then even vlc | 02:37 |
| shyster317 | do you know what it is called | 02:37 |
| Orbixx | nickrud: Ah yes. | 02:37 |
| Orbixx | nickrud: Thanks for the correction there :P | 02:37 |
| Slasher | TwinX, thanks, i'll give that a try | 02:37 |
| ToddEDM | anyone know how i can uninstall enemy Territory??? | 02:38 |
| RightSideLeft | sorry-Ok, I wanted to know the easiest way (if there is one) to have program change messages from my MIDI keyboard change which ALSA outputs the midi keyboard is using so that I can map different soft synths to different programs on the keyboard | 02:38 |
| bazhang | ToddEDM: how did you install it | 02:38 |
| tayroni | And anyone here is part of l10n teams? The translations deadline is the release of RC? | 02:38 |
| Dr_willis | thor, make it log to a file to see any error messages? could be You need to mess with that setting in gnome to allow apps to draw to the desktop. I would also check the conky homepage/faqs - it can be a bit of a hassle under kde/gnome to get going right | 02:38 |
| Dante123 | bazhang: I dunno sometimes I start the computer and 5 minutes later I come back into the room and it is hung...so I reset it. Hold in the on/off switch for 10 seconds then restart it. | 02:38 |
| shyster317 | in windows i can get all 5.1 to play even with an mp3, though it is not a true 5.1 source | 02:38 |
| nickrud | thor it might be starting on the root window before nautilus starts the desktop (which is a window above the X root window) . Try adding a sleep 30 or so to the script starting conky | 02:38 |
| jon_high9000 | hello, has anybody had any problems with Avant Window Navigator not working with gnome? | 02:38 |

| gogeta | weee | 02:39 |
| shyster317 | i'll try that | 02:39 |
| gogeta | errr | 02:39 |
| nickrud | thor you can test for the root window drawing by going to gconf-editor /apps/nautilus/preferences/show_desktop and unchecking it. You should see conky | 02:39 |
| ToddEDM | bazhang: i right clicked the .run file and ran from terminal | 02:39 |

| gogeta | oh | 02:39 |
| Dante123 | bazhang:at different places. Sometimes it says Reading files to boot or something like that....other times it says other things.....not consistent | 02:40 |
| thor | nickrud: if i comment in "sleep 30" or another time it will execute later? would i add it in the begenning of the conf script or the end? | 02:40 |
| thor | nickrud: ok, ill give that a shot too | 02:40 |
| nickrud | thor what line do you have in the startup | 02:40 |
| thor | nickrud: just "conky" | 02:40 |
| Slasher | PeterParkerSubZethen you should just be able to set the resolution from system->preferences->Screen Resolution, can you not? | 02:40 |
| artenius | According to ubuntu docs, transmission-gtk is the default bittorrent client in 7.10, but when I execute transmission-gtk in terminal, it says it's not installed. So is there another default client? | 02:41 |

| nickrud | thor then create a file my-conky , put the following lines in it: #!/bin/bash <newline> sleep 30 <newline> conky . Save it to your desktop, then type chmod +x my-conky && sudo mv my-conky /usr/local/bin . Change the startup you're using to my-conky | 02:42 |

When I configure my apple wireless mighty mouse in xorg.conf using evdev (and only when using evdev), holding down any of the mouse buttons registers a series of extremely rapid clicks until I let it up. I have no idea why this is, and can't find any info on the internet about it. | 02:52 |

| bazhang | jack|Argon: what distro please | 02:52 |
| demortes | ikonia, Just now, hopeing I don't have to wait 48 hours | 02:53 |
| ikonia | tim_: if you upgraded surly you 7.10 files are now you 8.04 files | 02:53 |
| jack|Argon | foresight linux. very small channel unfortunately | 02:53 |
| beener | yuo | 02:53 |

| ikonia | demortes: have you setup your dns resolved | 02:53 |
| tim_ | ikonia: no, I didn't upgrade | 02:53 |
| ikonia | xxxxxxx: I don't think it is | 02:53 |
| mindrape | beener - and how about lsmod? Are drivers loaded for it? | 02:53 |
| ikonia | tim_: you said you did ? | 02:53 |
| bazhang | jack|Argon: then just be patient; foresight is very different from ubuntu | 02:53 |
| xxxxxxx | yes but how do I check ikonia | 02:53 |
| gogeta | jack|Argon oh qwll #linuxhelp is a genrel one to try to | 02:53 |
| demortes | ikonia, Hmm, not sure I follow (why I like ISPCOnfig to configure it for me :P) | 02:53 |
| tim_ | ikonia: yeah, mistake, I've installed on a new partition...I had upgraded another computer | 02:54 |
| beener | mindrape what am i looking at in there | 02:54 |
| ikonia | demortes: ahhh so you've not done it then | 02:54 |
| beener | should it be the driver name? | 02:54 |
| jack|Argon | yes, but xorg isnt different between them, afaik... I'll try linuxhelp then though | 02:54 |
| ikonia | tim_: ok | 02:54 |
| m2geek | my dlink wifi dongle is great :D it auto-detected and runs great | 02:54 |
| mindrape | beener - look for some sort of indicator for your wireless device on the left and the driver name on the right. | 02:54 |
| demortes | ikonia, ISPConfig manages it for me, I thought that's what you wanted. | 02:54 |
| beener | midrape ndiswrapper 185240 0 | 02:54 |
| xxxxxxx | what about the new amd 780g onboard hdmi card does that support open gl 2.0? | 02:54 |
| ikonia | demortes: nope | 02:54 |
| mindrape | thats it... hrrmm... | 02:54 |
| demortes | ikonia, So what files do I look at? | 02:54 |
| ikonia | xxxxxxx: check teh specs on x.org | 02:54 |
| ikonia | demortes: you need to set your host resolver to point at active dns servers | 02:54 |
| gogeta | jack|Argon true but the error may be spefic to your distro | 02:54 |
| tim_ | ikonia: no help? that's fine if not | 02:54 |
| xxxxxxx | ok | 02:54 |
| ikonia | tim_: whoaaaa slow down | 02:55 |
| mindrape | beener - so sudo iwconfig shows the wireless device. When you set the essid it just says the AP mac address is unknown or something.... dunno man... strangeness. :( Sorry. | 02:55 |
| ikonia | tim_: I've only got one set of hands | 02:55 |
| ikonia | I'll get there | 02:55 |
| tim_ | ikonia: hehe, I understand...I'll be back in just one minute, sorry | 02:55 |
| ikonia | tim_: not a problem | 02:55 |

| ikonia | CharlI_-: no | 02:55 |
| beener | mindrape: lol its fine | 02:55 |
| demortes | ikonia, Not sure what you mean. My computer is set to my router for DNS (nslookup says so) | 02:55 |
| CharlI_- | is there a way to emulate vb code? | 02:55 |
| Enul132 | will ubuntu 7.10 support firewire? | 02:55 |
| mindrape | beener - you could try one last thing... sudo ifconfig wlan0 down then bring it back up... see if it brings it back. If its misconfigured it usually wont. | 02:55 |
| ikonia | demortes: great, so you should have dns resolution yes/no ? | 02:55 |
| Tonisius | ok, got the zlib stuff, now where is the mysql-devel stuff | 02:56 |
| [A]BR|Cougars|84 | helllo | 02:56 |
| Tonisius | ? | 02:56 |
| ikonia | Enul132: depends on your card, but should do | 02:56 |
| demortes | ikonia, From the router, nslookup fails | 02:56 |
| ikonia | Tonisius: synaptic package manager | 02:56 |
| ikonia | demortes: so the problem is your router is not servring up active dns queries | 02:56 |
| CharlI_- | ikonia: how is wine w/ visual studio? | 02:56 |
| [A]BR|Cougars|84 | im usin serv and i dont know how to make the nologin users doesnt have permission to do anytihin | 02:56 |
| ikonia | CharlI_-: no idea, I'd not do it that way | 02:56 |
| demortes | ikonia, Or outdated (cache?) But why wouldn't yours work? | 02:56 |
| Tonisius | ikonia: not helpful, what am I looking for | 02:56 |
| CharlI_- | ikonia: cataclysimic? | 02:56 |
| Enul132 | ikonia do you know where i can find a list of cards that are supported? i cant seem to get mine to work | 02:56 |
| jamesish | Tonisius: I seem to recall it's actually stored as something like libmysqlblahblah-dev | 02:56 |

| ikonia | demortes: what are you talking about | 02:58 |
| ikonia | demortes: clear the dns from this computer ??? | 02:58 |
| mindrape | beener - well thats a good indicator that something is screwed up w ndiswrapper configs.. | 02:58 |
| ikonia | demortes: your router is not servring as a caching name server, your PC has nothing to do with that | 02:58 |
| demortes | ikonia, ipconfig /dnsflush just in case :) | 02:58 |
| beener | lol what should i do then? | 02:58 |

| Tonisius | Mol3: system specs? | 02:59 |
| Tonisius | Mol3: video drivers? | 02:59 |
| jamesish | Mol3: How long are you waiting? I had a computer recently that took several minutes to load to a desktop. | 02:59 |
| Tonisius | Mol3: mine took 5 minutes of blank before it did something | 02:59 |
| ikonia | Mol3: what graphics card do you have (ati ?) | 02:59 |
| beener | midrape: you think the driver will be more stable on ubuntu then on kubunut | 02:59 |
| beener | kubuntu | 02:59 |
| jamesish | Mol3: the cd loads a desktop first from the CD, so it takes a while | 02:59 |
| bazhang | Mol3: did you check the md5 sum for the iso; also might want to reburn at the lowest speed possible | 02:59 |
| ikonia | beener: kubuntu is the same as ubuntu | 02:59 |
| Mol3 | Tonisius: nvidia 8800, Msi neo 775skt board. | 02:59 |

| RightSideLeft | ok, back-so anybody know an easy way to map different programs on my midi keyboard to different soft synths? | 03:00 |
| beener | yea i know but it is a bit unstable at the moment | 03:00 |
| mindrape | beener - to my knowledge they are basically the exact same... just they come prepackaged w Gnome versus KDE... otherwise the kernel and the behind the scenes pkgs are the same. | 03:00 |
| Tonisius | Mol3: how long did you wait? | 03:00 |
| ikonia | demortes: welcome | 03:00 |
| beener | o... dern | 03:00 |
| Pelo | Tonisius, jamesish Mol3 every now and again , the computer will take the time to do a filesystem check on boot, that should account for the longer boot time | 03:00 |
| jamesish | Pelo: he hasn't installed it yet. | 03:00 |
| Mol3 | tonisius: 5-10mins but the drive spins down. no actity on the light either. | 03:00 |
| mindrape | I use xubuntu but have since switched to gnome so I'm basically using regular ubuntu but my "branding" logos are xubuntu when I bootup :P | 03:00 |
| Tonisius | Mol3: and the hard disk? | 03:01 |
| Pelo | jamesish, well in that case it migth just be checking the hardware | 03:01 |
| Mol3 | Tonisius: Hitachi deskstar | 03:01 |
| jamesish | Pelo: How? | 03:01 |
| Mol3 | sata. | 03:01 |

| ikonia | m2geek: in what way ? | 03:03 |
| mindrape | Tonisius - you can unmount it using the umount command then the button on the device outa work. | 03:03 |

| gogeta | mneptok thats the fix the tgz doesent work correctly | 03:22 |
| arrrghhh | i didn't know i had chinese characters installed lol | 03:22 |
| XTeLiS | new kernel for linux fixes ALOT of errors ! | 03:22 |
| gogeta | mneptok yes | 03:23 |
| gogeta | mneptok ben for months | 03:23 |
| dmsuperman | arrrghhh, that causes my whole system to crash, almost like the windows BSOD only without a blue screen | 03:23 |
| osfameron | hmmm, maybe I'll boot up into Windows and repartition from there (probably less good than gparted, but might work) | 03:23 |
| Jordan_U | osfameron, Use a LiveCD | 03:23 |
| mneptok | gogeta: no, it was fixed months ago | 03:23 |

| gogeta | dmsuperman well whatevea do whatever works | 03:24 |
| dmsuperman | arrrghhh, normally, i just download the archive and run it | 03:24 |
| dmsuperman | gogeta, i'm testing it now, but that page so far has worked :D | 03:24 |
| mneptok | dmsuperman: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 03:24 |
| arrrghhh | dmsuperman, well... you need to extract the archive and then run (from console) ./flash-installer or whatever it is. | 03:24 |
| arrrghhh | mneptok, that didn't install flash for me. | 03:24 |
| arrrghhh | at least not *properly* | 03:24 |
| mneptok | arrrghhh: in Gutsy? | 03:24 |

| gogeta | had another guy earler with the same problem | 03:25 |
| tim_ | Pelo, says I must specify a filesystem type...I think it's ntfs | 03:25 |
| mneptok | if i go test this on a VM, and you guys haven't done your homework, i'm gonna be mighty peeved | 03:25 |
| arrrghhh | i mean it installed flash i'm sure, but it didn't for firefox. i had to manually add the symlink. | 03:25 |

| b1n0ry | the problem is... i have 8.04 installed and the pre-release xorg server isn't detected by the ati drivers ineed! | 03:28 |

| dmsuperman | gogeta, flash | 03:28 |
| gogeta | dmsuperman you can probly install the extras package now thats flash fixed | 03:28 |
| b1n0ry | so the real question is... can i upgrade from 7.1 to 8.04-release? | 03:28 |
| arrrghhh | that's disappointing. Orbixx that's where i started... that room is DEAD. | 03:28 |

| b1n0ry | arrrghhh: i was just wondering if i 'downgrade' from the beta (fresh install) will i be able to just 'upgrade' without a fresh install when 8.04 is finally released? | 03:29 |
| dmsuperman | gonna try the installer once more, if i log then it crashed again | 03:29 |
| bazhang | b1n0ry: yes but discussion is in #ubuntu+1 | 03:29 |
| taggie | b1n0ry, you'll get better answers about hardy from the hardy channel, #ubuntu+1 | 03:29 |
| tim_ | bazhang, sorry...I | 03:29 |
| arrrghhh | b1n0ry, there's no "downgrading". and taggie is right. | 03:30 |
| tim_ | bazhang, I'll remember that next time | 03:30 |
| gogeta | dmsuperman have you restarted firefox lol | 03:30 |
| bazhang | tim_: I dont care; cant wait for 6 days to pass | 03:30 |
| Pelo | bazhang, it's hardly a hardy specific question | 03:30 |
| b1n0ry | ok, don't be crazy folks... i'm talking about release versions here, not the 8.04 beta, why go to #ubuntu+1? | 03:30 |
| dmsuperman | gogeta, of course ;( | 03:30 |
| bazhang | Pelo: right; please forgive me | 03:30 |
| arrrghhh | b1n0ry, 8.04 isn't released yet tho... | 03:30 |
| dmsuperman | ;)* | 03:30 |
| dmsuperman | but hurray, it worked | 03:30 |
| eobanb | i have an hp pavilion zv5000 with 8.04 beta freshly installed. lspci says i have a broadcom bcm4306 wireless card. i remember it working fine under 7.10 using bcm4xx-fwcutter. now that 8.04 uses b43/ssb i cant get it to work. i've tried b43-fwcutter and it seems to load but then network manager can't find any wireless networks and i cant connect to anything | 03:30 |
| dmsuperman | no crashing this time | 03:30 |
| FloodBot2 | dmsuperman: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 03:31 |
| b1n0ry | arrrghhh: as for 'downgrading' thus why i specified "fresh install" | 03:31 |
| gogeta | dmsuperman heh | 03:31 |
| Pelo | tim_, please pastebin the output of blkid so I can have a look | 03:31 |
| demortes | ikonia, Got it solved. BIND had a permission error since it was chrooted... I feel stupid | 03:31 |
| taggie | b1n0ry, 8.04 is not released. hence, +1 | 03:31 |

| Orbixx | eobanb: Thanks for the warning. I've the same, but I'm on 7.10 and will be staying for a while, now! | 03:32 |
| taggie | b1n0ry, ah, in that case, no, upgrading from 7.1 to 8.04-release should be fine | 03:32 |
| arrrghhh | b1n0ry, it's real easy to upgrade. like i said "sudo update-manager -d" you'll see "upgrade to new distro" or something to that effect in the top right. | 03:32 |
| dmsuperman | gogeta, it was, i would restart it and it still wasn't in about:plugins or anything | 03:32 |

| taggie | b1n0ry, when it's released, you don't even need the "-d" update manager will just tell you there's a new version and offer to upgrade | 03:33 |
| gogeta | dmsuperman being it had a good deb yea | 03:33 |

| b1n0ry | taggie: incredible, thanks! | 03:33 |
| gogeta | dmsuperman install script? | 03:33 |
| tim_ | Pelo, well then how do I get to my old partition? I could have sworn that was it | 03:33 |
| arrrghhh | taggie, it'll probably show him 8.10 when that starts getting built lol | 03:33 |
| underscore | sammyF_: thanks. | 03:34 |
| gogeta | isnt it just a apt command | 03:34 |
| Pelo | tim_, try sudo mount /dev/sda6 /media/old I think that is it | 03:34 |
| X01R | Is there a particular channel that would help me troubleshoot anjuta with make? | 03:34 |
| sammyF_ | underscore: np | 03:34 |

| b1n0ry | went through 'em all, and ubuntu just shined | 03:35 |
| b1n0ry | debian. | 03:35 |
| sammyF_ | maybe a stupid question, but in the rc.d dirs, the starting numbers states the time at which the script is executed, right? | 03:36 |
| dmsuperman | gogeta, the .tar.gz that you're supposed to use for manually installing it | 03:36 |
| dmsuperman | gogeta, there's a .so file and an install script in it | 03:36 |
| Pelo | tim_, gksu gedit /etc/fstab , hold on I'll give hyou a line | 03:36 |
| dmsuperman | gogeta, or you can get the rpm and alien it | 03:36 |
| gogeta | dmsuperman hey whatever worked | 03:36 |
| tim_ | Pelo, ok | 03:36 |
| dmsuperman | gogeta, yeah, i tend not to ask questions when things go well haha | 03:36 |
| arrrghhh | h | 03:36 |
| b1n0ry | only one criticism that i have is that it would be nice if the package manager did a little better at solving dependencies | 03:36 |
| b1n0ry | don't get me wrong, it does pretty good | 03:36 |
| gogeta | dmsuperman more then likly it saw it was installed and didnt try to load the bad files | 03:37 |

| Tigerplug | thanks Pelo | 03:48 |
| pwndNoobFerShur | hey everyone | 03:48 |
| * Pelo gave his 7.10 cd away to someone today and is now without a live cd | 03:48 | |
| dorian | udev seems to mow over the hda and hde devices with the two disks on my raid card even though they already get mounted | 03:48 |
| gogeta | Pelo epic fail | 03:49 |
| Pelo | gogeta, how so ? | 03:49 |
| Cann0n | whats good people? | 03:49 |
| Pelo | Cann0n, beer | 03:49 |
| pwndNoobFerShur | I was wondering if I can get some suggestions, I am in a bit of an install pickle | 03:49 |
| gogeta | Pelo you always make more | 03:49 |
| gogeta | to give away | 03:49 |
| Pelo | pwndNoobFerShur, we need specifics | 03:49 |
| arrrghhh | Pelo, so what about mah problem? ;) | 03:49 |
| arrrghhh | fix it! | 03:50 |
| Pelo | arrrghhh, what is your problem ? | 03:50 |
| arrrghhh | i figured it'd be simple | 03:50 |
| mkbxkrk | !envy me | 03:50 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about envy me - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 03:50 |
| Pelo | mkbxkrk, avoid envy | 03:50 |
| arrrghhh | Pelo, so i'm running ssh. i want to open a url in firefox on the ssh server machine. if firefox is already running, it gives the user on the ssh server an error that firefox is already running, i'm sure confusing the heck out of them. | 03:50 |
| gogeta | arrrghhh you still havent just killed it | 03:51 |
| pwndNoobFerShur | ok, I am running a p4 with an old dell dvd rom that I just slapped in the thing so that I could install ubuntu studio on my 2nd harddrive...my machine recognises the cd as ubuntu but tells me it can't boot from it | 03:51 |
| arrrghhh | gogeta, i don't want to kill it. | 03:51 |
| gogeta | arrrghhh you coulda refound all the sites by now | 03:51 |
| mneptok | arrrghhh: you want Firefox running on a remote machine doing remote X display over ssh to a client? | 03:51 |
| arrrghhh | i know, that's not the point tho. i don't want to kill it. i can kill it, that's not the problem | 03:51 |
| pwndNoobFerShur | everything I am reading is pointing me to some kind of bios problem, but i'm praying that's not it | 03:51 |
| Cann0n | can you upgrade to a new version, will you loose your documents? | 03:51 |
| Jwyanze | question: i am from the PortableApps community (#portableapps)and one of our members reported that ThunderbirdPortable freezes sometimes under wine. My question is, is it common that apps would freeze with wine or is this a problem with the app | 03:52 |
| pwndNoobFerShur | tried with 2 versions of ubuntu also | 03:52 |
| arrrghhh | mneptok, i'm not running firefox on the client, just the server. | 03:52 |
| Orbixx | mneptok: Remote X display? | 03:52 |
| Pelo | !enter | pwndNoobFerShur | 03:52 |
| ubotu | pwndNoobFerShur: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 03:52 |
| arrrghhh | Cann0n, no, but they always recommend backing up data. | 03:52 |
| mneptok | arrrghhh: and displaying a remote X session? | 03:52 |
| gogeta | mneptok hes trying to resume it | 03:52 |
| === m_billybob is now known as billybob | ||
| pwndNoobFerShur | any suggestions on another way I can install? | 03:53 |
| arrrghhh | mneptok, no... i just want to run firefox with a specific url on the server. i have that down, but if firefox is running it gives me no feedback and gives the server machine an error that firefox is already running. | 03:53 |
| Pelo | arrrghhh, not a clue , I don't actualy understand why it won't let you run two session of FF I do it on my comp all the time | 03:53 |
| Pelo | pwndNoobFerShur, usb ? | 03:53 |
| === NDPTAL86 is now known as NDPTAL85 | ||
| arrrghhh | Pelo, i dunno. i'd love for it to be in a new tab, new window... anything but that error! | 03:53 |
| mneptok | arrrghhh: i have no idea what you're tyrying to describe doing. | 03:53 |
| Orbixx | Pelo: I find arrrghhh's problem, which I've had myself, only occurs through an SSH connection. | 03:53 |
| Pelo | pwndNoobFerShur, do you get as far as the boot menu ? of the dvd ? | 03:53 |
| gogeta | Pelo sad thing is if he just does a kill whont firefox offer to restore it | 03:53 |
| mneptok | arrrghhh: how are you launching Firefox? | 03:53 |
| Orbixx | mneptok: It's simpler than you think. | 03:53 |
| Cann0n | last question. how can i set it up so i can browse a shared folder on a windows computer on my lan? | 03:53 |
| arrrghhh | mneptok, "firefox http://firefox.com --display :0" | 03:54 |
| Orbixx | mneptok: He's trying to remotely launch a URL into an existing firefox process as a new tab remotely through ssh. | 03:54 |
| mneptok | Orbixx: uhh ... i know how remote X display works. but thanks. :) | 03:54 |
| Pelo | gogeta, not sure | 03:54 |
| pwndNoobFerShur | I don't think so, it recognises it as linux and spits out some info abou the version, then asks me to press enter to boot from it then fails | 03:54 |
| Orbixx | mneptok: He doesn't want remote x display. And I don't know how remote x display works, read above. | 03:54 |
| LoganBlack | Hi everyone! Has anyone got any experience working with UBUNTU on a DELL Poweredge 1950 - dual quad core 8gbram, etc | 03:54 |
| LoganBlack | Having major performance issues | 03:54 |
| LoganBlack | RAID and everythin else fine | 03:54 |
| pwndNoobFerShur | I am paraphrasing here but thats about it | 03:54 |
| Pelo | pwndNoobFerShur, did you try with the alternate install cd ? | 03:55 |
| mneptok | Orbixx: got ssh access to a remote machine with X installed? | 03:55 |
| Jwyanze | question: i am from the PortableApps community (#portableapps)and one of our members reported that ThunderbirdPortable freezes sometimes under wine. My question is, is it common that apps would freeze with wine or is this a problem with the app | 03:55 |
| Orbixx | mneptok: Yes. | 03:55 |
| gogeta | Pelo i knoe if i crash firefox it does | 03:55 |
| mneptok | Orbixx: ssh -X name.of.host | 03:55 |
| Pelo | Jwyanze, better ask in #winehq | 03:55 |
| pwndNoobFerShur | yeah I tried with the alternate of ubuntustudio and the live version of ubuntu I believe | 03:55 |
| mneptok | Orbixx: then, in the same terminal, type the name of an X app. it will run on the remote machine, but dispay locally. | 03:55 |
| mneptok | *display | 03:55 |
| Jwyanze | Pelo thanks | 03:55 |
| mneptok | arrrghhh: i would suggest the same thing to you. | 03:56 |
| Cann0n | last question. how can i set it up so i can browse a shared folder on a windows computer on my lan? | 03:56 |
| Pelo | pwndNoobFerShur, ok the dvdrom then, plugged in as what ? slave ? master ? primary ? secondary ? sata ? | 03:56 |
| Orbixx | mneptok: But he wants firefox to display to the REMOTE user. | 03:56 |
| arrrghhh | mnemo, uh... what? | 03:56 |
| arrrghhh | er sorry | 03:56 |
| arrrghhh | mneptok, uh... what? | 03:56 |
| Pelo | arrrghhh, oh ..... | 03:57 |
| Bidget | ok quick question, I have the ntfs3g driver, and I'm PRETTY sure that I installed it right, but how can I tell for sure? | 03:57 |
| arrrghhh | Cann0n, !samba | 03:57 |
| arrrghhh | !samba | 03:57 |
| ubotu | Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 03:57 |
| pwndNoobFerShur | I'm not entirely sure, I believe it's primary | 03:57 |
| XTeLiS | Orbixx, so whats the deal bud ? | 03:57 |
| XTeLiS | you gunna let me host it or not ? | 03:57 |
| arrrghhh | Bidget, can you read/write to your ntfs drive? | 03:57 |
| XTeLiS | i sent yah a email | 03:57 |
| pwndNoobFerShur | it was the only drive in the machine a pulled it from and I didn't change the jumpers so I assumed it was configured right | 03:57 |
| XTeLiS | and msg''d you back in the pm... | 03:57 |
| Orbixx | I replied to the email. | 03:57 |
| Orbixx | I didn't get your message in PM. | 03:58 |
| Bidget | arrrghhh, well apparently ubuntu can read ntfs natively anyway... | 03:58 |
| Pelo | arrrghhh, export DISPLAY=:3 && firefox , not sure about the 3 however ,you'd hve to check xwindows specifications | 03:58 |
| pwndNoobFerShur | will that shoe up in bios, I can double check | 03:58 |
| Cann0n | i guess the problem is in my uncles computer. i fallowed like 3 samba faqs | 03:58 |
| Bidget | arrrghhh, by write do you mean just like... make a text document on an ntfs partition and see if I can read it? | 03:58 |
| gogeta | Pelo lol export | 03:58 |
| Bidget | arrrghhh, would that work? | 03:58 |
| arrrghhh | Bidget, ja | 03:58 |
| Bidget | arrrghhh, ok well cross your fingers :D | 03:58 |
| Orbixx | Pelo: It worked for me. | 03:58 |
| Pelo | pwndNoobFerShur, ok , P4, what version of the ubuntu install cd did you pic ? | 03:59 |
| XTeLiS | i didnt get a email back.... | 03:59 |
| Pelo | Orbixx, throught ssh ? | 03:59 |
| arrrghhh | you cross ur fingers Bidget lol | 03:59 |
| Orbixx | Pelo: Yes. | 03:59 |
| Pelo | arrrghhh, ??? | 03:59 |
| XTeLiS | Orbixx, i didnt get a email back.... | 03:59 |
| Orbixx | XTeLiS: I have a visual copy of an email replied to you in my sent box. | 03:59 |
| * Pelo is about to get realy smug | 03:59 | |
| Orbixx | XTeLiS: Try me through PM.. | 03:59 |
| gogeta | Pelo :-( | 03:59 |
| Orbixx | XTeLiS: You realise freenode do not allow PMs unless you are registered and identified? | 03:59 |
| Bidget | arrrghhh, ok it worked. wow that was really easy to install all I had to do was change some text file and add -3g onto a few lines | 04:00 |
| pwndNoobFerShur | i386 | 04:00 |
| arrrghhh | Bidget, yeppers | 04:00 |
| Bidget | hm | 04:00 |
| Bidget | its that simple :D | 04:00 |
| Bidget | hahaha | 04:00 |
| Psyco_Chipmunk | Hey guys, I really need windows for a lot of things like my zune and that kinda stuff but I hate the os and how slow it is so I want to do a dual boot with ubuntu. Can I do this without erasing all the programs and files I have on xp? | 04:00 |
| Pelo | pwndNoobFerShur, try the cd in another computer, make sure it does boot, run the cd integrity check , and try the dvdrom in another comp as well, that's all I can think of | 04:00 |
| gogeta | Psyco_Chipmunk yep | 04:01 |
| Pelo | arrrghhh, did you try the export DISPLAY line ? | 04:01 |
| Orbixx | Psyco_Chipmunk: Yes, I suggest you google for a guide on windows + ubuntu dual boot. | 04:01 |
| Bidget | alright so Ive tried looking for help in #xmms, but can anyone tell me how to get the media keys on my logitech g15 to control xmms? I've gone into the keyboard shortcuts thing and I have them bound for play/pause/stop etc. but they don't work | 04:01 |
| Orbixx | Bidget: Logitech G15 owns :D | 04:01 |
| Bidget | Orbixx, well it WOULD own if it could control my music hahahaha | 04:01 |
| Orbixx | :P True | 04:01 |
| pwndNoobFerShur | Pelo, thanks for your help...any suggestions of ways to install without a physical drive? | 04:01 |
| Bidget | the only thing that works is the volume dial | 04:01 |
| Psyco_Chipmunk | I did and it just told me to resize my current partition when I set up ubuntu but wouldent that deleat everything? | 04:01 |
| Orbixx | pwndNoobFerShur: You can try netboot installing. | 04:01 |
| XTeLiS | huh ? | 04:02 |
| pwndNoobFerShur | Orbixx, I need special drivers for my NIC for that or something right? | 04:02 |
| XTeLiS | ohhh | 04:02 |
| Pelo | !install > pwndNoobFerShur check for a private message windows with instructions from ubotu | 04:02 |
| XTeLiS | prolly why im having issues | 04:02 |
| cl9 | bjjjjhjkhkhjkh | 04:02 |
| XTeLiS | how do i do that ? | 04:02 |
| gogeta | Psyco_Chipmunk no resising whont format it | 04:02 |
| Orbixx | pwndNoobFerShur: It's a bit long-winded. | 04:02 |
| Pelo | cl9, ??? | 04:02 |
| gogeta | Psyco_Chipmunk but if you dont wanna deal with that thers others ways\ | 04:03 |
| pwndNoobFerShur | pelo, neato thanks | 04:03 |
| XTeLiS | n/m | 04:03 |
| XTeLiS | i see the link to register | 04:03 |
| Orbixx | pwndNoobFerShur: Google for "unetbootin". | 04:03 |
| Psyco_Chipmunk | what do u mean gogeta? | 04:03 |
| * flyback is already miserable to hell in spring due to allergies | 04:03 | |
| gogeta | Psyco_Chipmunk you can install inside windows | 04:03 |
| pwndNoobFerShur | Orbixx, that is looking like it may be my best option or at least a good fallback | 04:03 |
| fbc | is there anyway I can install the graphical environment in such a way that I can vnc to it? | 04:03 |
| pwndNoobFerShur | Thanks much guys | 04:03 |
| Orbixx | pwndNoobFerShur: No problem. | 04:04 |
| gogeta | Psyco_Chipmunk thats now a standerd tool in beta but for stable its wubi ubuntu | 04:04 |
| Bidget | is linus torvalds still alive? | 04:04 |
| matthew_ | Anyone know how to get/find developer header file and source packages? | 04:04 |
| Pelo | fbc, lookup vinigar I think it is called, a graphical vnc | 04:04 |
| matthew_ | e.g. curses.h | 04:04 |
| Orbixx | Anyone know of a way to get remote X to a Ubuntu system from Windows? | 04:04 |
| nickrud | !apt-file | matthew_ | 04:04 |
| ubotu | matthew_: apt-file is a program that can tell you which package(s) contain(s) a given filename. To install it and generate the database it needs, run "sudo apt-get install apt-file && sudo apt-file update" | 04:04 |
| Pelo | Bidget, barely but he's hanging in there ,and our prayers are with him | 04:04 |
| fbc | Pelo, cool thanks | 04:04 |
| nickrud | matthew_ then use apt-file search curses.h (and others as needed) | 04:05 |
| Bidget | aw really? | 04:05 |
| * nickrud eyes Pelo | 04:05 | |
| Bidget | is there a version of linux that is the original that he created still? or have all the other distributions kind of taken over | 04:05 |
| mneptok | Bidget: Linux is a kernel. | 04:05 |
| alphakamp | Orbixx: look up freenx | 04:05 |
| Psyco_Chipmunk | ok, another thing. It says resise the partition right? My options are to resise it from the minumum of like 50 gb all the way to like 70 and i have a 80 gb hard drive with 20 gb left, what should I do? | 04:05 |
| nickrud | Bidget every distro has his hand in it, from the kernel | 04:05 |
| gogeta | Bidget of course he is | 04:06 |
| Bidget | ahh ok so like the main os is what he made but gnome or kde are all add-ons | 04:06 |
| hOgGaR | speak espanish???? | 04:06 |
| gogeta | Bidget yea he did the kernel | 04:06 |
| Bidget | interesting | 04:06 |
| gogeta | Bidget it grew from that | 04:06 |
| nickrud | Bidget no, he created the kernel and maintains it. the linux-image stuff | 04:06 |
| XTeLiS | /msg nickserv set unfiltered on | 04:06 |
| Pelo | !es | hOgGaR | 04:06 |
| ubotu | hOgGaR: Aquí solamente hablamos inglés. Para Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es - allí obtendrá más ayuda. | 04:06 |
| Bidget | now that I have the attention of several people, how do I get xmms to be controlled by my logitech g15 :D | 04:06 |
| gogeta | Bidget he still does to this day | 04:06 |
| Bidget | thats cool | 04:07 |
| * nickrud looks for someone else ;) | 04:07 | |
| Bidget | he seems like an alright guy making stuff that I can use for free haha | 04:07 |
| * Pelo points at somene randomly | 04:07 | |
| gogeta | Bidget lol its alot more them him making free stuff | 04:07 |
| XTeLiS | ok | 04:07 |
| Bidget | well yeah I know haha | 04:07 |
| XTeLiS | try now orbixx | 04:07 |
| Pelo | Bidget, you can google him ifyou wnt there is a lot of stuff about him out there, wikipedia also has an article on him | 04:07 |
| Orbixx | alphakamp: I was looking for something almost exactly the same as remote x. Not an entire desktop viewer. | 04:08 |
| Bidget | cool cool | 04:08 |
| fbc | Pelo, I have an ubuntu server that I control remotely.. I would like to setup a graphical enviroment on it remotely and control it through vnc. Is that possible with out touching the console? | 04:08 |
| gogeta | Bidget hell he still has a regler job (shows how mutch he makes) | 04:08 |
| tom | lol | 04:08 |
| alphakamp | Orbixx: Dont know what you mean then SRY | 04:09 |
| Pelo | fbc, not sure what you mean by "without touching the console" , you'll have to start the gui on the server if you want to vnc into it | 04:09 |
| fbc | yes I can do that with SSH, but I'm half a world away from the server.. | 04:09 |
| Moredhas | I say all open-source-lings should move to a commune with free electricity, free internet access and free software! Hippies of today's technological era ftw! :P | 04:09 |
| gogeta | Pelo acully no if he installs a server | 04:09 |
| Pelo | gogeta, are yo saying that free software doesn't bring in the cash ? | 04:09 |
| fbc | pelo, yes I can do that with SSH, but I'm half a world away from the server.. | 04:10 |
| Pelo | gogeta, you need to read from the start | 04:10 |
| gogeta | Pelo not at the downloading level | 04:10 |
| Ashfire908 | what's special about the -rt kernel? | 04:10 |
| gogeta | Pelo support and serive it does | 04:10 |
| BoganLack | Hi | 04:10 |
| BoganLack | Hey Guys, I have installed UBUNTU on a DELL Poweredge 1950, dual quadcore, RAID, etc. Has installed fine, however i am experiencing major performance issues, with APACHE, PHP and MYSQL installed, from a remote computer connected via LAN, using FIREFOX, all data trransfer is slow as hell , but all works fine on other dists of linux.. | 04:10 |
| Pelo | fbc, oh you want to isntall in on the server removety ? sudo apt-get install gnome-core , if you can send that command t the server that should install it on there | 04:11 |
| X01R | Is the guy who asked about anjuta earlier still on? | 04:11 |
| fbc | Pelo, I can ssh and apt-get install gnome-desktop and vnc and all the other stuff, and reboot the server forcing the load of the graphical environment, | 04:11 |
| X01R | I found the solution | 04:11 |
| Pelo | fbc, pretty much | 04:11 |
| fbc | Pelo, but with no one at the console to login and setup vnc how will I ever get in? | 04:11 |
| gogeta | fbc if you install a full vnc server cant it work even in text mode | 04:12 |
| X01R | FOR THOSE WHO CAN'T GET ANJUTA TO WORK WITH UBUNTU 7.10, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=288480&highlight=anjuta+1+on+edgy | 04:12 |
| Pelo | fbc, not absolutely sure what the right package would be I thought it was gnome-core but -desktop is confusing me , full ubuntu is ubuntu-desktiop | 04:12 |
| fbc | gogeta, I have ssh for text mode, I want vnc for graphical remote desktop. | 04:12 |
| d0lph1nK1ng | anyone know how to play a wii using MythTV? | 04:12 |
| gogeta | fbc i knoe thers a way my ols xbox linux distro had that vnc trick | 04:12 |
| gogeta | fbc it would start x when i loged in vnc | 04:13 |
| BoganLack | Is my approach to getting my question answered correct? please advise me of the protocols, as I cannot talk to the bot | 04:13 |
| Pelo | fbc, you can skip the gdm login or automate it , and seting up the vnc can probably be added to the runlevel so it starts automaticaly but I have no experience doing tht so I woudln'T know how to direct you | 04:13 |
| fbc | Pelo, yeah, I got confused.. I'm pretty sure it's gnome-coore | 04:13 |
| mp5 | does there exist a voice-print login module for ubuntu? | 04:13 |
| fbc | gogeta, great.. I ca turn my production server to an xbox linux... great :-p | 04:14 |
| Pelo | arrrghhh, still around ? | 04:14 |
| gogeta | fbc i was talking abought starting x on vnc login | 04:14 |
| fbc | gogeta, oh | 04:14 |

| BoganLack | Pelo, can you please help me? | 04:15 |
| Pelo | BoganLack, I don'T know anything about servers , sorry | 04:16 |
| gogeta | Pelo right i think i rember how that workes | 04:16 |
| nickrud | BoganLack ask you question, all on one line, and repeat every 5 minutes or so. Someone who knows will pass through. | 04:16 |
| Bidget | oh wow linus is only 38 I thought he was like 70 hahahaha.... anyone got a logitech g15 keyboard to work with xmms? | 04:16 |
| BoganLack | nickrud, Ok, thanks for the advice | 04:16 |
| BoganLack | I have installed UBUNTU on a DELL Poweredge 1950, dual quadcore, RAID, etc. Has installed fine, however i am experiencing major performance issues, with APACHE, PHP and MYSQL installed, from a remote computer connected via LAN, using FIREFOX, all data trransfer is slow as hell , but all works fine on other dists of linux.. | 04:17 |
| BoganLack | i'll wait :) | 04:17 |
| amenado | BoganLack-> slow? how are you measuring this? do you have ipv6 enabled? | 04:17 |
| Pelo | Bidget, look up multimedia keybard in the forum www.ubuntuforums.org | 04:18 |
| Bidget | thanks pelo | 04:18 |
| Bidget | by the way I like your name its how my gf pronounces pillow haha | 04:18 |
| d0lph1nK1ng | can anyone help me set up my nintendo Wii w/ mythtv? | 04:19 |
| Pelo | Bidget, it's Pélo actualy, proniounced Pay-lo | 04:19 |
| BoganLack | amenado, It does not appear to be network related, as all other dists of linux installed on the same box work fine with same programs installed | 04:19 |
| BoganLack | amenado, yes i believe ipv6 was on | 04:19 |
| Bidget | oh.. haha | 04:19 |
| amenado | BoganLack-> when you mentioned Firefox from a remote, slow? anytime you traverse from one pc to another, network is involved..so how are you measuring the slowness? | 04:20 |
| HyperStream | is there any thing around that can emulate windows display drivers? | 04:20 |
| HyperStream | IE: like ndiswrapper does with wireless drivers | 04:21 |
| BoganLack | amenado, processing time for mysql queries, parsing of php engine, and final transfer of html etc from apache to render in browser all slow | 04:21 |
| Pelo | HyperStream, what is the issue ? | 04:21 |
| HyperStream | SiS no compatiblilty to run compiz, as they dont support open source | 04:21 |
| Pelo | HyperStream, no propriatary linux driver ? | 04:22 |
| BoganLack | amenado, as far as testing is concerned, all other dists of linux work fine on transfer, apart from ubuntu | 04:22 |
| cabrioleur | HyperStream, you are sentenced to live like that. Unless you install another card (I assume yours is built in) | 04:22 |
| _ | hey, I'm using btnx and I have a question that isn't really touched upon in the manual. My right mouse button and my 'forward' mouse button both send a 'button event 3'. | 04:22 |

| Drew_l | Hello, I am having trouble recalling what the default install directory for Adobe Reader 8 is. I need to uninstall it but since I used the .deb from Adobe I can't simply apt-get it, I need to change the directory first. | 04:39 |
| yao_ziyuan | after upgrading to kubuntu 8.04 beta, vbox says: VBox status code: -1908 (VERR_VM_DRIVER_NOT_INSTALLED). | 04:39 |

| Lehan | Pelo,can u explain me-if i'll install Ubuntu on 15 gb,then all the programms will be on the rest 28 GB? | 04:40 |

| Orbixx | Pelo: Yes. | 04:41 |

| sjovan | Orbixx: that's prob cause you have the wrong permissions for the above folder | 04:41 |
| Pelo | Lehan, things you install in ubuntu will be in the 15 gig | 04:41 |
| sjovan | Orbixx: man chmod | 04:41 |

| harriseldon | chuy_max did you look here http://www.castaglia.org/proftpd/doc/contrib/ProFTPD-mini-HOWTO-Chroot.html | 04:42 |

| Lehan | thanks! | 04:44 |
| FloodBot2 | !netsplit | 04:45 |
| ubotu | netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit | 04:45 |
| Lehan | so as i see-i must install Ubuntu on all free space on D | 04:45 |
| nickrud | Lehan think of it this way: home == Users in vista; user stuff will be in /home and all the apt-get stuff will be in the other partition | 04:45 |

| === eris_ is now known as eris | ||

| cabrioleur | Lehan, not a problem. You can create a directory and compile the source up there. You don't have to actually make install them. You can just execute from there. You can also create directory ie. apps, and then compile with --prefix=/home/xxx/apps | 04:45 |

| Pelo | cabrioleur, you'll just confuse him | 04:49 |
| Krzzzz | you should try it and see the diff | 04:49 |
| harriseldon | jmei it is used to control x sessions. When you use fast user switching it handles the master x session vs the child x sessions. That is my understanding | 04:49 |
| Pelo | root__, ask your question | 04:49 |
| nickrud | !ask | root (and welcome to #ubuntu) | 04:49 |

| cabrioleur | Krzzzz, check how many apps is loaded when you are in root, and how many as an average user. That's the difference. | 04:50 |
| Pelo | root__, you'll probably need to compile the source manualy | 04:50 |
| amenado | Krzzzz-> i have not observed it..give me a sample app you run as root and as regular user that has the perception its faster.. | 04:50 |

| Pelo | b1n0ry, look for one with a green square next to it and look at the version number | 04:57 |
| crdlb | nickrud: in 0.6, all actions were put on a separate Actions tab, but in 0.7, they're integrated with the other settings. | 04:58 |
| Zambezi | sjovan: Not in the repos. There's deb for Gutsy, but I'm running Hardy. So I need a port or deb from source. | 04:58 |
| Bidget | but its confusing to configure so Im wondering if anyone has any experience with it... | 04:58 |
| b1n0ry | Pelo: there are at least 40 with green squares | 04:58 |
| amenado | Orbixx-> the directory you try to chroot to dont have access to /bin/bash | 04:58 |
| phreck | ANyone know of any good Virus Scanners for ubuntu? | 04:58 |
| fyreofchaos13 | Thanks. =) | 04:58 |
| Starnestommy | !virus | phreck | 04:58 |
| ubotu | phreck: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 04:58 |
| gogeta | RedScare the supergrub live cd or using the ubuntu live cd can reapir the boot loader after xp changes it | 04:58 |
| Orbixx | amenado: How would I provide access to /bin/bash, pop a symlink in the directory I want to chroot? | 04:58 |
| b1n0ry | easy answer to that: not enough people use linux yet to make it a popular target for virus writers | 04:58 |
| Pelo | RedScare, download the supergrub cd , burn it , you can use that to restore the grub stage1 one after you are done installing xp , it's got menues in it | 04:58 |
| sjovan | Zambezi: ah, i c... sorry can't help you out :/ | 04:59 |
| fyreofchaos13 | Um, how can I add a repository without forcing Synaptic to crash? | 04:59 |
| nickrud | Bidget hm, the commands simply need to be given by something, xbindkeys is not a requirement | 04:59 |
| Bidget | nickrud, I see | 04:59 |
| RedScare | yea, I've dealt with it with Vista home premium | 04:59 |
| Pelo | b1n0ry, hold on I'll gry to get you the package name | 04:59 |
| gogeta | :) | 04:59 |
| b1n0ry | Pelo: i think it's xserver-xorg 1:7.2 | 04:59 |
| amenado | Orbixx-> i would think you need a copy and libraries too if needed in the chroot environment | 04:59 |
| teban | hi can i install a different version of nvidia drivers on my ubuntu rather than those in the nv-glx-new package? | 04:59 |
| nickrud | crdlb would you be willing to point out where the key settings are in .6 ? | 04:59 |
| Pelo | b1n0ry, that sounds about right | 04:59 |
| phreck | Starnestommy, i know linux doesnt have that issue, i need to scan files for windows boxes =D | 04:59 |
| Bidget | nickrud, .6 of what, exactly? | 04:59 |
| root__ | what can be done...someone plz help me.. | 04:59 |
| Starnestommy | phreck: try clamav | 04:59 |
| RedScare | I was thinking just use BartsPE builder, construct a custom live and put it on the partition. I really don't intend booting to it, only using VirtualBox on ubuntu | 04:59 |
| Bjbbop | hello all | 04:59 |
| phreck | Starnestommy, thanks | 05:00 |
| Zambezi | sjovan: And I need it about two hours, so if I can't get it within an hour, then it's reinstall and no IRC/Jabber/MSN for three days. | 05:00 |
| Starnestommy | root__: pastebin the entire output of the 'make' command | 05:00 |
| gogeta | RedScare you can make a imsgae file you dont even need the other ntfs | 05:00 |
| Zambezi | root__: www.pastebin.ca | 05:00 |
| Pelo | !pastebin | root__ | 05:00 |
| ubotu | root__: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 05:00 |
| gogeta | RedScare if your not going to run it nativly | 05:00 |
| sjovan | Zambezi: dude... you don't use 3 days on a re-install | 05:00 |
| nickrud | Bidget of ccsm. I'd suggest you look into doing your commands using the compiz settings, and #compiz has people who know it better. I'm on hardy, which is a bit different in layout than the ccsm in 7.10 | 05:00 |
| crdlb | Bidget: On the actions tab, you should see a treeview with a Commands section. Expand that commands section to find where you set the key bindings for each custom command | 05:00 |
| RedScare | and boot into the image right | 05:00 |
| gogeta | RedScare yep | 05:01 |
| === LiraNuna_ is now known as LiraNuna | ||
| Bidget | crdlb, yes I see that, but how do I make the commands affect xmms? | 05:01 |

| Zambezi | sjovan: Oh yes I do. I just need it for three days, then it's back to hardy, but I prefer to skip it. | 05:01 |
| peanutb | is anyone in here really experienced with whole disk crypto? | 05:01 |
| crdlb | Bidget: on the Commands tab, you set Command Line 0 to xmms | 05:01 |
| Bidget | ohh ok | 05:01 |

| nickrud | crdlb something I was wondering, is 12 a hard coded limit in compiz, or can I add extra keys like metacity? | 05:02 |

| gogeta | RedScare i beleve vmware vmx files are acully compatble | 05:02 |
| RedScare | but I'm trying to create a seamless XP desktop | 05:02 |
| crdlb | nickrud: you can have more than 12 in metacity? | 05:02 |
| Bjbbop | can someone please help me solve a screen issue :) | 05:03 |
| nickrud | crdlb yes, you just define some extra gconf keys | 05:03 |
| peanutb | Pelo: I know, but i doubt this is the right place | 05:03 |
| RedScare | if so, I'm familiar with that process | 05:03 |
| gogeta | RedScare you should try the vmware beta its like osc now | 05:03 |
| Pelo | Bjbbop, what isthe screen issue ? | 05:03 |
| crdlb | nickrud: oh interesting, it's hardcoded to 12 in compiz though | 05:03 |

| gogeta | RedScare new vmware does it now to | 05:04 |
| Pelo | fyreofchaos13, did you remove it from sources.list ? | 05:04 |
| crdlb | nickrud: I'd love for the custom commands to be a multilist (like the opacity windows list on the last tab), then you could have as many as you want, but compiz currently doesn't support lists of actions | 05:04 |
| fyreofchaos13 | Yes. | 05:04 |

| harriseldon | mc-george: give more details -- what wireless hardware? Is it PCI, miniPCI, PCMCIA, etc? | 05:34 |
| ZiggyFish_laptop | Harriseldon: evince doesn't display the pdf properly | 05:34 |
| mc-george | harriseldon, its a usb wifi card, trendnet tew-444ub | 05:35 |
| ZiggyFish_laptop | or does it print it | 05:35 |
| Bjbbop | Pelo: now it came back | 05:35 |
| dmsuperman | Well, I'm off to get some sleep, for once. Good luck with things guys | 05:35 |
| Bjbbop | this is frustrating | 05:35 |
| harriseldon | ZiggyFish_Laptop: it may be a font issue. fonts can be embedded into the pdf. I am not an expert though. | 05:35 |
| Pelo | Bjbbop, came back ? | 05:35 |
| Bjbbop | pelo: i lost it again now the screen stuck | 05:36 |
| Pelo | Bjbbop, open a terminal , sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg , just let it pick the default values | 05:36 |
| dmsuperman | Actually, while I'm here really quick. What's the command to lock your screen? | 05:36 |
| mc-george | harriseldon, is that good? | 05:36 |
| Bjbbop | pelo il try thank you for your help | 05:36 |
| harriseldon | mc-george: are you using ndiswrapper or some other broadcom driver? | 05:36 |
| ZiggyFish_laptop | harriseldon: is there a way to print it to an image from adobe? | 05:36 |
| Nichito | hi | 05:37 |
| mc-george | harriseldon, ndiswrapper | 05:37 |
| myphone | what is the light ubuntu ? for less ram ? | 05:37 |
| harriseldon | ZiggyFish_laptop: I do not know, sorry | 05:37 |
| Pelo | myphone, xubuntu | 05:38 |
| Bjbbop | pelo it tells me command not found | 05:38 |
| Pelo | Bjbbop, copy and paste | 05:38 |
| Bjbbop | ok now good | 05:38 |
| myphone | Pelo, is it gonna effect if somebody already have ubuntu, kubuntu on it | 05:38 |
| Pelo | Bjbbop, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 05:38 |
| Bjbbop | pelo what do i do with all this options? | 05:39 |
| Pelo | myphone, well it's not gonna use less resources | 05:39 |
| Pelo | Bjbbop, just pick the default values , and then restart x | 05:39 |
| harriseldon | mc-george: it has been many years since I used ndiswrapper. maybe someone else in the channel can help with that. It does seem like a module loading issue. | 05:39 |
| mynyml | i've installed new RAM and now ubuntu won't boot (it reaches "running local boot scripts" but the login screen never appears). what could be causing that? | 05:40 |
| myphone | Pelo, so you saying it not gonna make that much difference | 05:40 |
| mc-george | harriseldon, it doesn't make sense that it works after being unplugged then plugged back in | 05:40 |
| harriseldon | mc-george: I am not sure if this will work, but did you try adding ndiswrapper to the end of the /etc/modules | 05:40 |
| dmsuperman | Anybody know how to lock the screen from command line? | 05:40 |
| Pelo | myphone, on a clean system installing just xubuntu will use less resources, not sure it's gonna use less if you have all the stuff from theother 2 intalled as well | 05:41 |
| mc-george | harriseldon, yes | 05:41 |
| myphone | Pelo, ok thanks | 05:41 |
| harriseldon | mc-george: adding it in /etc/modules did not work? | 05:41 |
| ZiggyFish_laptop | harriseldon: where does 'print to pdf' files go to? | 05:41 |
| mc-george | harriseldon, no | 05:42 |
| harriseldon | ZiggyFish_laptop: are you using ubuntu (Gnome) or kubuntu (KDE)? | 05:42 |
| ZiggyFish_laptop | ubuntu | 05:42 |

| zero88 | Is there a way instead of using the grub password security feature to secure your computer at bootup? | 05:58 |
| Pelo | sjovan, the default install only constaint repos for packages made by canonical, the other stuff is non supported or commercial | 05:58 |
| zero88 | Even stop access through a LIVECD | 05:58 |
| ZiggyFish_laptop | harriseldon: it fonts seem to be ArialMT, what package offers this font | 05:58 |
| Flannel | zero88: what sort of other methods are you looking for? | 05:58 |
| Flannel | zero88: that'd be a BIOS password | 05:58 |
| Pelo | zero88, some bios have passwords in them for boot | 05:58 |
| harriseldon | zero88 I have read about doing password encrypted partitions, but I have never tried it | 05:59 |
| Flannel | zero88: boot, or keep someone from modifying the bootup sequence (so you can force always booting from HDD) | 05:59 |
| zero88 | ah | 05:59 |
| mc-george | harriseldon, when I type ndiswrapper-m I get module configuration already contains alias directive | 05:59 |
| zero88 | but what if "I" needed to use the livecd for recovery? | 05:59 |
| Pelo | sjovan, and the default of ubuntu is only FOSS software as well | 05:59 |
| american | is it bad to use a adminstrator account for your day to day linux use? | 05:59 |
| amenado | yes | 06:00 |
| Flannel | zero88: Then you'd be out of luck. You'd have to open up the box, and reset your BIOS with the jumper on the mobo | 06:00 |
| sjovan | tuntun: pelo told you what you had to do before you could install that package | 06:00 |
| prem | from which website can i get ubuntu themes | 06:00 |
| harriseldon | mc-george: sorry I am at a loss. I have not used ndiswrapper in a long time | 06:00 |
| Pelo | zero88, you'll give the bios password to start thecomp and then boot the live cd | 06:00 |
| mc-george | ok | 06:00 |
| Pelo | sjovan, the default install only constaint repos for packages made by canonical, the other stuff is non supported or commercial | 06:00 |
| zero88 | ahhh | 06:00 |
| mc-george | Hello, every time I reboot, the wireless goes away, and only comes back if I unplug it, plug it back in, and reboot, this is with a trendnet tew-444ub wifi card | 06:00 |
| zero88 | ok thanks yall | 06:00 |
| Pelo | tuntun, menu > system > admin > software surces , check every box on the 1st and 3rd tab, reload and then try the command again | 06:00 |
| Flannel | zero88: oh, right. You know the password, yeah. You basically get prompted for a password to change the BIOS | 06:00 |
| Spade01 | Can anyone point me to a resource or another IRC channel where I might learn how to take a valid key for a WMV file (that would allow me to play said WMV file, IF I were on Windows) and convert it into a hex SID key? | 06:01 |
| sjovan | Pelo: i c, but it's not good for newbies :) | 06:01 |
| prem | free ubuntu desktop themes website | 06:01 |
| Pelo | Flannel, many bios you can set the password for eitehr boot or security, security only protects the bios , boot is to boot | 06:01 |
| tuntun | Pelo, that seems a bit unsafe, on the first tab everything is selected except "source code" | 06:01 |
| prem | give me the website for additional ubuntu themes | 06:02 |
| Flannel | Pelo: right, it doesn't sound like he wants a boot password, just a BIOS password to change the bios | 06:02 |
| Pelo | sjovan, it's just a little annoying but it's a supportable possition | 06:02 |
| Jordan_U | prem, art.gnome.org | 06:02 |
| Pelo | tuntun, it is perfectly safe | 06:02 |
| Pelo | !theme > prem check for a private message windows with instructions from ubotu | 06:03 |
| tuntun | on the third tab "updates" only "important security updates" is selected | 06:03 |

| harriseldon | Ntemis: does this mean that you do not have the nvidia card installed at all? Do you have a different card installed? | 06:06 |
| raevol | the monitor goes from 60-85 or something, i set it manually when i used debian | 06:06 |
| ivan_ | re hi | 06:06 |

| Pelo | yao_ziyua1, you can try sudo apt-get autoclean , but that will jsut get rid of leftover from removed packages | 06:13 |
| tuntun | firefox just crashed in and lost refused to load my last session >:O | 06:13 |
| yao_ziyua1 | Pelo: give me a complete command line that cleans /var/cache/apt | 06:14 |
| Flannel | yao_ziyua1: sudo apt-get clean | 06:14 |
| yao_ziyua1 | e... | 06:14 |

| Spade01 | Can anyone point me to a resource or another IRC channel where I might learn how to take a valid key for a WMV file (that would allow me to play said WMV file, IF I were on Windows) and convert it into a hex SID key? | 06:14 |
| Pelo | yao_ziyua1, no I won'T just cd to it , ls to see the files and sudo rm them one by one if you know you donT' need them anymore | 06:15 |
| raevol | alright Pelo, got it edited, restart? | 06:15 |

| american | how do i edit the grub so that i can choose which os is loaded by default? | 06:16 |
| harriseldon | american: /boot/grub/menu.lst (there is a default line -- it is 0 based) | 06:17 |
| tuntun | pelo, the number of updates just went from 47, to 188 :-\ ...I did the command again and it installed correctly but crashed firefox in the process. I dont really want to download a ~120MB update for OpenOffice, 'cause i dont really use it. | 06:17 |
| Pelo | american, gksu gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst , toward thetop ther is a listing for which entry to boot, the numbering starts with 0 | 06:17 |
| raevol | Pelo: gnome seems to be saving the setting now ( had to set it to 52hz in the control panel applet to get it to 75hz) but gdm is still 60 hz, any way to fix that? | 06:17 |
| Flannel | american: change the "default" line (near the top) to a number to pick that entry, or change it to "saved" and then add "savedefault" after whichever one you want to be default. | 06:17 |
| joshhunt | anyone know where to install TLC from? | 06:17 |
| american | thanks all | 06:17 |
| Flannel | joshhunt: you mean TCL? | 06:18 |
| Pelo | tuntun, not sure , just do it , it will be done once and that wil be it | 06:18 |
| Pelo | raevol, not sure about the gdm sorry | 06:18 |
| raevol | k thanks | 06:18 |
| Psynaut | Hi all. I am looking to start learning programming in linux on my ubuntu box and am wondering if anyone could offer some sites that they know with good tutorials for a beginner to get started on. | 06:18 |
| Pelo | ok 1am here I'M off to bed, g'night folks | 06:19 |
| harriseldon | goodnight Pelo | 06:19 |
| american | it looks like menu.1st is completely blank, but when i go to close it with gedit it asks whether i want to save changes | 06:19 |
| Flannel | Psynaut: Tht'd depend on the language, but you should probably ask in #ubuntu-offtopic, that'd be a better place | 06:19 |
| Flannel | american: .lst not 1st (LiST) | 06:19 |
| Pelo | american, Lst , not onest | 06:19 |

| RenaKunisaki | and this is right at startup, those windows in the corner aren't even there, it's part of the background | 06:40 |
| RenaKunisaki | if I restart X the whole system hangs, still seems to be responding (Ctrl+Alt+Delete makes it beep) but I can't even see a terminal | 06:40 |
| RenaKunisaki | this was all working fine in WinXP about an hour ago so I'm pretty sure there's nothing wrong with it | 06:42 |
| Daisuke_Ido | what does the x server have to do with windows *at all*? | 06:43 |
| RenaKunisaki | I mean since Windows worked I'm guessing the hardware is all fine | 06:44 |
| Daisuke_Ido | yeah, the hardware's fine, but you've stumbled across why ati is the bane of linux users everywhere :\ | 06:46 |
| Daisuke_Ido | unfortunately, i know next to nothing about ati :\ | 06:46 |

| Daisuke_Ido | i've heard reports of it working well in gutsy, but not hardy | 06:51 |
| Daisuke_Ido | but i use too many non-gtk apps that it's completely impractical | 06:52 |
| jewjew | Daisuke_Ido: alright. I'm using gutsy right now, but I'll probably switch back to Debian soon. | 06:52 |
| Daisuke_Ido | that's like stepping back in time right there | 06:53 |
| jewjew | it's also a step up in performance without the need for a strip down | 06:54 |

| IcemanV9 | bluefoxx: try tom's hardware site | 07:19 |
| hti_pro | WGGMK: that would be Gutsy Gibbon | 07:19 |
| Flannel | WGGMk: Hardy is not stable. Gutsy is stable. But, the most stable would be Dapper, since its been out since June of 06 | 07:19 |
| McLovin | I am planning on installing Ubuntu over the weekend (a new user making a switch), but should I wait for the new release? | 07:19 |
| bazhang | WGGMk: that really depends; some have found gutsy to be so others feisty or even dapper | 07:19 |
| bluefoxx | Bidget: BFG tech PCI nvidia 6200 OC with 256 MB RAM | 07:19 |
| Bidget | bluefoxx, there is a program called gpuid that will tell you everything, it is only for windows as far as I know though so if you have a dualboot you could try that | 07:19 |
| IcemanV9 | heymr: not bad | 07:19 |
| Bidget | bluefoxx, and what are you planning on buying? | 07:19 |
| Flannel | WGGMk: Not Edgy, since that'll be reaching EOL soon. | 07:19 |
| hti_pro | WGGMK: if you want the latest updates just enable the gutsy-backports, they are not "stable" but are tested and generally known to work | 07:19 |
| heymr | IcemanV9: I'll still look around for murrina one... | 07:19 |
| WGGMk | Flannel: well I said excluding hardy heron... So Dapper then? hti_pro: I have no interest in backports... Im just looking for the most stable release by it self for a project | 07:20 |
| IcemanV9 | WGGMk: LTS version would be the most stable. that would be dapper. | 07:20 |
| hti_pro | anyone good with awk in here | 07:21 |
| WGGMk | IcemanV9, Flannel: How does Dapper compare to the most stable release of Debian? In terms of stability.... Keep in mind im EXCLUDING Hardy Heron from this... | 07:21 |
| bluefoxx | Bidget: no dual boot here, built a seperate rig just for windows games that dont work in WINE[win98 box] and as for the new card, its an asus PCI-E nvidia 8600GT, paying $122 CDN[inc tax] for it, i think its a good price | 07:22 |
| user1542 | sounds like a question for #awk then :-) | 07:22 |
| hti_pro | WGGMk: what kind of project are you taking on | 07:22 |
| Flannel | WGGMk: Hardy is *not* stable, its still Beta software. and, what do you mean by compare? | 07:22 |
| Bidget | bluefoxx, why do you even need to compare??? they are not even in the same ballpark man | 07:22 |
| tengulre | when I installed a new ubuntu-desktop env, I stopped on search apt source.. how to skiping it? | 07:22 |
| bazhang | McLovin: you might want to try the latest stable release (gutsy) as there are no guarantees that Hardy will be solid on day one | 07:22 |
| hti_pro | user1542: thanks | 07:22 |
| WGGMk | Flannel: I keep telling you im EXCLUDING Hardy from these comparisons | 07:22 |
| WGGMk | hti_pro: A minor clustering project | 07:23 |
| Bidget | bluefoxx, I upgraded from a 6600gt to an 8800gt and the difference is just not even funny man... also, I would recommend buying an evga card because their warranty isnt voided by overclocking | 07:23 |
| user1542 | hti_pro: keep in mind, people (most) are actually in bed..., not all of them, but many... | 07:23 |
| Flannel | WGGMk: Yes, but why do you need to? It's not stable, it's development software, instability goes without saying. | 07:23 |
| Bidget | bluefoxx, you can't compare clock speeds because the way they are built is completely different, the memory on them isnt the same, etc. | 07:23 |
| Snark_ | Hey, guys! In Heron release I found they goin to use kernel 2.6.24 . However, latest one is 2.6.25 and the one before it is 2.4.36.2. Do you have any idea what this mean? | 07:23 |
| WGGMk | Flannel: why do I need to exclude it? So people dont say "well hardy heron WILL be the next most stable" | 07:23 |
| IcemanV9 | WGGMk: i am not familiar with Debian, so i cannot say about it. dapper is very stable. i have it for 2 yrs. no problem whatsoever. | 07:23 |
| hti_pro | WGGMk: I find pure debian to be much more reliable than ubuntu and much more efficient especially for servers | 07:23 |

| bazhang | Snark_: you are misinformed and hardy discussion is in #ubuntu+1 thanks | 07:24 |

| Metallica | can somebody tell me a correct procedure to install latest monodevelop on ubuntu | 07:24 |
| hti_pro | WGGMk: I am not sure I would use ubuntu for such a project, it has more overhead, and is directed more for ease of use than it is for efficiency | 07:24 |

| Jordan_U | WGGMk, Debian stable is about as good as it gets, if you do encounter bugs they will almost certainly be known work-arounds | 07:26 |
| WGGMk | I plan on using Ubuntu (the most stable release) for my head node or Overhead PC | 07:26 |
| Flannel | WGGMk: Not necessarily. Etch was released only a year ago, Dapper has been out for almost two. I would say Dapper is more stable than Etch is. | 07:26 |

| zero | can anyone help with my permissions issue? | 07:27 |
| Bidget | bluefoxx, no problem, but remember that you can't just compare in terms of mhz because the memory bus sizes will most likely be different... its just things like that. but if you are able to get gpuid, it will tell you everything and you can make a better comparison, look for things like memory bandwidth, pixel fillrate, texture fillrate | 07:27 |
| Jordan_U | !ask | zero | 07:27 |
| ubotu | zero: 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. :-) | 07:27 |
| Flannel | Jordan_U: What? Etch was released in April 2007, that's debian "stable", Dapper in 2006. But this is getting offtopic, we may want to move this to #ubuntu-offtopic | 07:27 |
| bazhang | WGGMk: not sure about pidgin, but most irc clients allow you to type three or so letters then hit tab key to complete the name | 07:27 |

| stintage | kindofabuzz | 07:28 |
| hti_pro | bazhang: pidgin allows tab completion | 07:28 |
| stintage | how very stereotypical | 07:29 |
| bazhang | Peddy: too many tabs open in ff perhaps or an overabundance of extensions in ff | 07:29 |
| RenaKunisaki | so about how big a partition does Ubuntu need? | 07:29 |
| kindofabuzz | huh? | 07:29 |
| RenaKunisaki | 7GB? | 07:29 |
| stintage | all the cool kids celebrate it on the 21st | 07:29 |
| MrGozInYah | wow | 07:29 |
| bazhang | RenaKunisaki: that will do sure | 07:29 |
| IcemanV9 | Peddy: run 'top' in the terminal and see what's going on | 07:29 |
| RenaKunisaki | thanks | 07:29 |
| MrGozInYah | i think i might give this PCBSD a try | 07:29 |
| hti_pro | RenaKunisaki: I wouldnt use just one partition | 07:29 |
| Peddy | haha, my birthday is always on an Ubuntu release | 07:29 |
| MrGozInYah | it looks NICE | 07:29 |
| kindofabuzz | lol | 07:29 |
| Peddy | IcemanV9: trying, thanks | 07:30 |
| stintage | any fans of skyos | 07:30 |
| kindofabuzz | i celebrate it everyday | 07:30 |
| stintage | ? | 07:30 |
| stintage | true dat | 07:30 |
| RenaKunisaki | hti_pro, why not? | 07:30 |
| WGGMk | bazhang: hti_pro: Flannel: Jordan_U: IcemanV9: Ive reach a point where my questions are suited for this channel, so Ill conclude with one last question. In comparison to other distrobutions, how does Debian hold up in stability for servers ONLY | 07:30 |
| Metallica | "MONODEVELOP" | 07:30 |
| bazhang | MrGozInYah: you can join their channel and give them the good news ;] | 07:30 |
| WGGMk | ERR NOT SUITED | 07:30 |
| hti_pro | 7GB is sufficient for general desktop though, if you have games or larger progsi would allocate more | 07:30 |
| Peddy | IcemanV9: Xorg is using 26% CPU, is this normal? | 07:30 |
| tuntun | (quick Q&A not in #wine) I was looking on the wine site but there aren't really an instructions on how to install a prog using an exe other than "~$wine installer.exe" | 07:30 |
| IcemanV9 | WGGMk: in server only, very good in term of stability | 07:30 |
| stintage | ICEWM LIVES ON | 07:30 |
| RenaKunisaki | hti_pro, I'm going to have a ~200GB partition for general file storage, 7GB just for the OS | 07:30 |
| hti_pro | RenaKunisaki: if your /var partition fills up with logs due to a failure your whole system goes down, or /home, or /usr | 07:31 |
| kindofabuzz | tha's all you do tuntun | 07:31 |
| asdrubal | Do you guys know how to make a dvd out of a .ac3 file and a .m2v file ? | 07:31 |
| metbsd | is ubuntu good for server? | 07:31 |
| zcat[1] | I just doubleclick the exe .. I set properties to open exe's in wine | 07:31 |
| stintage | metbsd | 07:31 |
| stintage | i would try a bsd for server use | 07:31 |
| metbsd | yes | 07:31 |
| bazhang | metbsd it has commercial support so it is more often picked for that yes | 07:31 |
| metbsd | why | 07:31 |
| hti_pro | WGGMk: i must agree with IcemanV9 | 07:31 |
| IcemanV9 | Peddy: hm. that's bit high. mine is hovering around 1-3% | 07:31 |
| MrGozInYah | sorry | 07:32 |
| MrGozInYah | im just lookin at all avenues | 07:32 |
| VA_Avatar | sup | 07:32 |
| MrGozInYah | im still stuck on ubuntu | 07:32 |
| stintage | stuck? | 07:32 |
| MrGozInYah | im not leavin just yet... | 07:32 |
| Peddy | IcemanV9: Its gone down to 6, and Firefox is 11%? Is that high? I forgot to mention that Pidgin also becomes unresponsive | 07:32 |
| metbsd | i heard there's problem to install mplayer on ubuntu | 07:33 |
| hti_pro | RenaKunisaki: you may go quite a while without problems like this, but rest assured one day you will understand first hand why it is important to have seperate partitions for at least /var /usr /home /boot and / | 07:33 |
| tuntun | kindofabuzz, i did that command six times, exactly the same, after you said that, it started to work o_O | 07:33 |
| bazhang | metbsd not so | 07:33 |
| kindofabuzz | i'm magic | 07:33 |
| RenaKunisaki | you mean one for each or one for / and one for the others? | 07:33 |

| kindofabuzz | ubuntu to rule them all | 07:34 |
| bazhang | hmm thought this was #ubuntu ; must have the wrong channel | 07:34 |
| stintage | skyos to rule them all | 07:34 |
| metbsd | redhat is #1 linux in the world | 07:34 |
| hti_pro | RenaKunisaki: It is a very good idea to make them all seperate | 07:34 |
| Fa | i use ubuntu with kde lol | 07:34 |
| Figuero | Hi | 07:35 |
| kindofabuzz | metbsd, according to ? | 07:35 |
| XTeLiS | ;p | 07:35 |
| Fa | redhat is only good for server not desktop | 07:35 |
| Fa | and developers | 07:35 |
| metbsd | why redhat not good for desktop | 07:35 |
| hti_pro | RenaKunisaki: check out this link for more info http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Partition/ | 07:35 |
| stintage | >red hat is only good for nothing | 07:35 |
| kindofabuzz | redhat announced they will no longer work on the desktop | 07:35 |
| stintage | fixed | 07:35 |
| kindofabuzz | they said it's too hard | 07:36 |
| bazhang | metbsd this is offtopic thanks | 07:36 |
| Fa | personally freebsd is better for servers | 07:36 |
| RenaKunisaki | thanks | 07:36 |
| Figuero | its true | 07:36 |
| stintage | habbo.com | 07:36 |
| Fa | they did? | 07:36 |
| metbsd | freebsd sucks | 07:36 |
| kindofabuzz | yup | 07:36 |
| Fa | not for servers | 07:36 |
| stintage | favorite distros everyone | 07:36 |

| ubotu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 07:36 |
| Fa | ubuntu | 07:36 |
| IcemanV9 | Peddy: yes, firefox is high as usual. pidgin should be low as 1-3% | 07:36 |
| gregory | !best | stintage | 07:37 |
| ubotu | stintage: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 07:37 |
| Leeuw | RenaKunisaki: also check: http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/redhat-fedora-linux-help/44468-red-hat-linux-partition-size-ratios-server-installation.html and http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Partition/ , the last one is very comprehensive, lotsa good info ! | 07:37 |

| Bidget | hey can anyone tell me why when I use ctrl+f (I'm trying to search for text in firefox) it will open up a terminal window instead | 07:38 |
| Bidget | Im almost positive I was using the ctrl+f search function like an hour ago and now its not working | 07:38 |
| RenaKunisaki | Bidget, I can tell you that just typing / is an easier way to search in Firefox :-p | 07:39 |
| Bidget | o rly... | 07:39 |
| Leeuw | Bidget: because it means ctrl-f'ed ? | 07:39 |
| abhi_ | hi i noticed that someone can eject a cd from my drive using the eject button even after i lock my computer. i don't want this to happen. how do i stop it? | 07:39 |
| hti_pro | RenaKunisaki: This is what i use for my ubuntu setups, / 2-4GB, /var 2-4GB /usr 5-8GB(depending on what your putting on it - this is where your programs go), /boot 100-200MB, swap should be equal or double your ram | 07:40 |
| === solid_li` is now known as solid_liq | ||
| VA_Avatar | glue your drive shut :P | 07:40 |
| IcemanV9 | abhi_: you can't. :/ | 07:40 |
| RenaKunisaki | ok thanks again | 07:40 |
| hti_pro | RenaKunisaki: depending on what your doing as I said 7GB could be enough, its ultimately up to you | 07:40 |
| sbingner | sure you can, if the drive is locked it won't eject... but they can still use a paper clip | 07:40 |
| abhi_ | IcemanV9 VA_Avatar: but SuSE doesn't allow u to do remove the cd until u explicitly unmount it | 07:40 |
| IcemanV9 | abhi_: i even can eject the CD when it is power down. | 07:41 |
| Fa | can't stand suse | 07:41 |
| kindofabuzz | Fa, http://linux.slashdot.org/linux/08/04/17/1334251.shtml | 07:41 |
| abhi_ | sbingner: ok yea excluding that. i don't want someone to eject it when the machine is on. i don't want a no-brainer to be able to take a cd | 07:41 |
| Peddy | if I download the package 'linux source', where does the source code appear? | 07:41 |
| abhi_ | IcemanV9: yes using a paper clip. excluding that method. i don't want it to be easy | 07:41 |
| Leeuw | RenaKunisaki: yeah, like hti uses I do to, works fine; consider seperate home though (the 200 Gig you mentioned would be great ?); usr somewhat larger if you want lots an lotsa progs (I use 12 G) | 07:42 |
| RenaKunisaki | yeah that sounds like about what I'll do | 07:42 |
| hti_pro | thank you Leeuw: I forgot /home, I generally use whatever is left | 07:42 |
| IcemanV9 | abhi_: is there a reason why you want to leave CD in? i believe you can adjust the permission of CD drive thru system > admin > users and group | 07:43 |
| sbingner | abhi_, I suspect if you manually mount it somewhere it'll work... it's probably the way nautilus handles it that permits ejection... | 07:43 |
| sbingner | abhi_, you'd look for how ubuntu overcomes the not being able to eject... thay may tell you how to disable it ;) | 07:43 |
| VA_Avatar | can someone please see if http://ogam3r.org/ is up? I cant get to it =S | 07:44 |
| RenaKunisaki | abhi_, maybe you should just make an image of the disc instead | 07:44 |
| pwndNoobFerShur | . | 07:45 |
| Leeuw | hti_pro: me too, have lotsa dif parts, but for a simple sys using leftovers for home is best bet, I think; since everything tends to end up there anyway if you're not a browsing typpe; most ' normal users' aren't ; xperience in PC-center learns most people don't even remember where they stored something, they just asume it's ' in the computer' (meaning documents ion windoze, home in linux) | 07:45 |
| RenaKunisaki | VA_Avatar: blank page | 07:45 |
| VA_Avatar | RenaKunisaki: thanks | 07:45 |
| tuntun | I use notepad++ on windows, It opens anything, even binary files, how can I get gedit to do that without saying: "gedit has not been able to detect the character coding. Please check that you are not trying to open a binary file.". Or what text editor will? | 07:46 |
| abhi_ | RenaKunisaki sbingner IcemanV9: my point is that suppose you lock ur session and u leave a cd in the drive, some joe shouldn't be able to eject it by just pressing the eject button. | 07:46 |
| sbingner | abhi_, lol | 07:46 |
| hti_pro | Leeuw: I hate the Documents folder | 07:46 |
| RenaKunisaki | makes sense | 07:46 |
| sbingner | there is no other US that does that | 07:46 |
| sbingner | s/US/OS/ | 07:46 |
| bazhang | abhi_: make an image of it as RenaKunisaki suggested, mount the iso when you need it problem solved | 07:46 |
| Theo__ | how do i start a game on a server and make it continue after i disconnect from the server? | 07:47 |
| abhi_ | sbingner: then how can u claim that u locked a computer. | 07:47 |
| Leeuw | hti_pro: oh yeah, you said it; especially since it makes people non-aware of their hard-disk; if last file was stored somewhere dif' rent, they' re lost | 07:47 |
| magnetron | hti_pro: then just delete the documents folder | 07:47 |
| abhi_ | bazhang: what if i don't have time to make an image? i shouldn't be allowed to eject it so simply. | 07:47 |
| magnetron | Theo__: you could use the "screen" command | 07:47 |
| hti_pro | magnetron: i did one better, I deleted windows | 07:47 |
| Leeuw | hti_pro: I use dif drives for docs and stuff; makes more sense | 07:47 |
| sbingner | abhi_, you didn't lock the computer... that would involve putting a big box around it with a mechanical lock | 07:48 |
| bazhang | abhi_: you have been given some options; why not choose the best one for you and solve it | 07:48 |
| sbingner | abhi_, you locked your SESSION | 07:48 |
| Theo__ | how do i do that? | 07:48 |
| Leeuw | have t' go ! bye guys 'n' dolls ! | 07:48 |
| ganteng | i hate my computer....it very dificult opereted | 07:48 |
| tuntun | I use notepad++ on windows, It opens anything, even binary files, how can I get gedit to do that? Or what text editor will? | 07:48 |
| hti_pro | ls | 07:48 |
| abhi_ | sbingner: yes that's what i meant locked my session | 07:48 |
| hti_pro | sorry wrong window :) | 07:48 |
| sbingner | abhi_, the hardwars is not in any way part of your session | 07:48 |
| sbingner | *hardware | 07:49 |
| RenaKunisaki | Error 42: not a terminal :-p | 07:49 |
| kindofabuzz | tuntun, the source is available for notepad++, just compile it yourself | 07:49 |
| sbingner | abhi, they can also hit the power button on the front, or pull the power cord in the back... | 07:49 |
| abhi_ | sbingner: hmmmm... | 07:49 |
| Theo__ | how do i start a game on a server and make it continue after i disconnect from the server? | 07:49 |
| abhi_ | sbinger: ur right :) it doesn't matter | 07:49 |
| bazhang | this sounds more and more like a hardware discussion | 07:49 |
| sbingner | abhi_, hehe | 07:49 |
| IcemanV9 | Theo__: use nohup command | 07:50 |
| tuntun | kindofabuzz, thats a little beyond me, and i think there would already be a native app somewhere. | 07:50 |
| magnetron | tuntun: If you are looking for something to edit your binary files, there are several tools at your hands. GHex is one of them | 07:50 |
| abhi_ | sbingner: i was using SuSE and it didn't allow me to remove cds so easily. i had to unmount it and then it allowed me to eject. i guess Ubuntu is for Humans. most people wouldn't get the unmounting bit | 07:50 |
| Theo__ | could you please explain? | 07:50 |
| magnetron | !who | Theo__ | 07:50 |
| ubotu | Theo__: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 07:51 |
| kindofabuzz | tuntun, you might as well start sometime =) | 07:51 |
| sbingner | abhi_, that's right... but if you wanted to avoid that you can find how nautilus avoided locking the cdrom drive... and switch it back | 07:51 |
| kindofabuzz | not hard | 07:51 |
| IcemanV9 | Theo__: nohup <game> & | 07:51 |
| kindofabuzz | usually just ./configure, make, make install | 07:51 |
| sbingner | abhi_, but if the cdrom was in and unmounted... you would be in the same place ;0 | 07:51 |
| abhi_ | sbingner: correct | 07:51 |
| tuntun | kindofabuzz, ok, well see my second reason :) | 07:51 |
| Daisuke_Ido | abhi_, i switched my fiancee and the only thing i had to drill into her was that she has to unmount her usb flash drives before pulling them | 07:51 |
| magnetron | kindofabuzz: don't mock his support request please | 07:51 |
| doom__ | good morning mates | 07:52 |
| _Synthetic_ | morning | 07:52 |
| kindofabuzz | magnetron, huh? i didn't. i just told him how to compile something, that's more support than telling him apps that do it. | 07:52 |
| Daisuke_Ido | and i know i've done my job correctly because we were at school and she had to print something out... after she finished she was looking for the unmount command in windows... | 07:53 |
| Bidget | alright guys Ive found a plugin for xmms for the g15 keyboard (YES) and I'm reading through the readme and it says first I must compile it, then install it | 07:53 |
| Achoth | What would I write to remove the entire X-server from Ubuntu? | 07:53 |
| Bidget | BUT | 07:53 |
| === Fdisk2 is now known as Fdisk93 | ||
| Daisuke_Ido | Achoth, tired of these fancy new GUIs? | 07:53 |
| bazhang | Achoth: you want a headless server? | 07:53 |
| magnetron | kindofabuzz: no, you told him to patch the app, and then compile it, just because it didn't behave like he wanted to. "write your own editor" isn't really a supportive answer | 07:53 |
| === flutela_ is now known as flutela | ||
| Bidget | it says I have to do ./configure && make (to compile) then make install to install (which I get), but when I try the ./configure && make, I get the error "./configure: No such file or directory" | 07:54 |
| Achoth | Daisuke_Ido: That too, but now it's for a server | 07:54 |
| bazhang | magnetron: he said to compile notepad++ not write a new one | 07:54 |
| Achoth | bazhang: Yep | 07:54 |
| Jordan_U | abhi_, Not sure if this is is the same feature ( I actually suspect it's not, but you decide if it's worth trying ) but to turn off "auto-eject mode" run "eject -a off" | 07:54 |
| jussi01 | Bidget: are you in the correct directory? | 07:54 |
| Bidget | yeah | 07:54 |
| sbingner | Jordan_U, it's not ;) | 07:54 |
| kindofabuzz | magnetron, you have no idea what i was talking about do you? patch the app? lol | 07:55 |
| Bidget | jussi01, I'm in the folder that I untarred but I don't understand why it isnt working | 07:55 |
| bazhang | Achoth: is this system already installed? if not you could get the minimal (9MB) iso and install only the very bare bones that you want or need | 07:55 |
| Jordan_U | sbingner, :( | 07:55 |
| IcemanV9 | Bidget: sudo aptitude install build-essential | 07:55 |
| kindofabuzz | and you didn't read his request either | 07:55 |
| Bidget | IcemanV9, what will that do?? | 07:55 |
| Daisuke_Ido | This project, based on the Scintilla edit component (a very powerful editor component), written in C++ with pure win32 api and STL <- yeah, that's gonna be SO easy to just "configure, make, make install" | 07:55 |
| IcemanV9 | Bidget: the stuff you need to compile app | 07:55 |
| Bidget | oh | 07:56 |
| tuntun | magnetron, he said to compile it, I understood what he meant. I replied that I was a little beyond my ability at the moment, and I prefer to find something that is already up and running on linux. | 07:56 |
| Bidget | I thought I could just compile it without needing anything else lol woops | 07:56 |
| Achoth | bazhang: Ubuntu is already installed and configured, my co-workers insisted we used Ubuntu with GUI because CLI is too "hard" :/ | 07:56 |
| kindofabuzz | tuntun, see you understood but it was way over magnetron's head | 07:56 |
| Bidget | IcemanV9, I'm still getting the error | 07:57 |
| bazhang | Achoth: aha; well you can still bring it back to that state, just a bit more work | 07:57 |
| Jordan_U | Daisuke_Ido, There are native linux editors which use Scintilla | 07:57 |
| bazhang | kindofabuzz: please let it go | 07:57 |
| kindofabuzz | tuntun, i was just saying compiling stuff isn't hard. there should be a readme in the source. and like i said, usually just 3 steps | 07:57 |
| Flannel | Daisuke_Ido: SCiTE | 07:57 |
| IcemanV9 | Bidget: boot up another terminal and try again | 07:57 |
| Bidget | IcemanV9, same error | 07:58 |
| Flannel | oh, Bidget, try SciTE instead | 07:58 |
| Bidget | whats that flannel? | 07:58 |
| bazhang | !info scite | 07:58 |
| ubotu | scite (source: scite): Lightweight GTK-based Programming Editor. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.71-1 (gutsy), package size 782 kB, installed size 1960 kB | 07:58 |
| magnetron | tuntun: as i said, if you want a native app that can edit binary files, try a hex editor like ghex | 07:58 |
| Daisuke_Ido | i was more talking about the win32 api, wouldn't it have to be patched or at least compiled against wine? | 07:58 |
| IcemanV9 | Bidget: can you tell me what was the error? ... if it's too long, just pastebin plse | 07:59 |
| Flannel | Bidget: Its the Scintilla Text Editor, proof of concept (but completely functional) by the same people who made Schintilla | 07:59 |
| Bidget | ok whoa whoa whoa how did we go from installing a plugin to programming Im not sure I follow exactly what is happening here... | 07:59 |
| magnetron | tuntun: some like kate too, but i never tried it | 07:59 |
| MrMist | Any alltary gurus here? I can't get alltray to work properly in the new ubuntu beta | 07:59 |
| Daisuke_Ido | Flannel, wrong user | 07:59 |
| Bidget | umm yeah IcemanV9 I type ./configure && make and it says "./configure: no such file or directory" | 07:59 |
| marvxxx | isnt there a cdupgrade script on the beta iso images? | 07:59 |
| Flannel | Bidget, Daisuke_Ido, sorry. Ignore me. SciTE is still a good native Scintilla editor. | 07:59 |
| Daisuke_Ido | should have gone toward tuntun | 07:59 |
| usrl | Alright; long story short, I had an accident while trying to repartition my drive. Luckily, no data was lost, but the / partition thought that it was completely full. I was able to delete some spare crap so I have a bit of wiggle room; but is there any way to fix it so that it recognizes how much space is actually being used? | 07:59 |
| Bidget | ehhh ok flannel :) | 07:59 |
| Bidget | hahaha | 07:59 |
| bazhang | MrMist: come back in six days or go to #ubuntu+1 today thanks ;] | 08:00 |
| semsem | hello everyone, how to play rm and ram media on ubuntu? | 08:00 |
| IcemanV9 | hm. didn't know there is SciTE in repo. sweet. | 08:00 |
| MrMist | bazhang: I AM on ubuntu+1, but no one seems to care :S | 08:00 |
| Achoth_ | bazhang: That's my plan :) so is there any commands for removing the X-server (and preferably any other packages that will only pose a security threat)? | 08:00 |
| jarrettgreen | When new files are created in apache, is there a default permissions set for them? | 08:00 |
| jarrettgreen | or is it based on the user who made them? | 08:01 |
| bazhang | MrMist: aha well not sure the 'care' level is that high here atm ;] | 08:01 |
| Daisuke_Ido | there's a care level? | 08:01 |
| tuntun | the notepad++ wikipedia entry said vaguely said its "based on the Scintilla editor component" | 08:01 |
| Daisuke_Ido | tuntun, welcome back | 08:01 |
| Daisuke_Ido | tuntun, look for scite in the repos | 08:01 |
| IcemanV9 | Bidget: just issue one command at a time: ./configure | 08:01 |
| Daisuke_Ido | which is also based on the scintilla editor component | 08:02 |
| Bidget | IcemanV9, k | 08:02 |

| Bidget | IcemanV9, same error | 08:02 |
| bazhang | Achoth_: I am guessing you mean dont pose a security risk ;] not sure of this as I generally go the other direction | 08:02 |
| Bidget | IcemanV9, ok what do you think is easier, compiling this stupid thing, or is there some way I can figure out what ubuntu detects my media keys as so I can just use xbindkeys to bind them to play/pause etc. | 08:02 |
| Daisuke_Ido | how often does a *text editor* need to be updated? | 08:02 |
| IcemanV9 | Bidget: ?? is there a file in that directory? ha | 08:02 |
| slowlearner | jarrettgreen: based on the user | 08:02 |
| semsem | hey guys how to play rm and ram media on ubuntu? | 08:02 |
| Daisuke_Ido | i mean... seriously | 08:02 |
| Flannel | tuntun: The newest versions of software aren't always the best. | 08:02 |
| MrMist | bazhang: Hehe... yeah, I guess. But people WILL be caring about it when the new ubuntu comes out, if they're interested in having thunderbird in the tray ;) | 08:02 |
| bazhang | semsem: well generally realplayer will do that | 08:03 |
| IcemanV9 | Bidget: or find it in repo | 08:03 |
| Bidget | IcemanV9, it's not in there | 08:03 |
| jarrettgreen | slowlearner - hmmm. I guess I need to set up my webdav user to different permissions then. I can't write files. How can I check what the default permissions for a user are? | 08:03 |
| bazhang | MrMist: too true; I was kind of referring the generally late hour in most places in the world more than anything ;] | 08:03 |
| semsem | well thx I'll try the repo but does real player work in ubuntu? | 08:04 |
| IcemanV9 | Bidget: maybe that is the problem. remove that directory and untar again. check if there is a file | 08:04 |
| bazhang | semsem not in the repo you have to get it from real website, and yes it works fine | 08:04 |
| Bidget | IcemanV9, what file am I looking for exactly | 08:05 |
| MrMist | bazhang: Hehehe... enerally late hour? That kinda' depends where you are, right? In most of europe, it's around 9am now ;) | 08:05 |

| dfgas | i know it is +10 | 08:06 |
| Bidget | so I guess it should probably be ./configure.in right IcemanV9 | 08:06 |
| bazhang | phish: you want to boot a different distro or ubuntu on a different distro/windows | 08:06 |
| dfgas | they are 16hours ahead | 08:06 |

| jussi01 | !fonts | chazco | 08:20 |
| ubotu | chazco: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer | 08:20 |
| IcemanV9 | zero: see Section "Screen" ? | 08:20 |
| chazco | jussi01 - Got the msfonts installed, things still dont match up | 08:20 |
| jussi01 | chazco: install that msttcorefonts for your font issues :) | 08:20 |
| jussi01 | oh | 08:20 |
| chazco | bazhang - Ah, so better to ask in the OO channel? | 08:20 |
| zero | IcemanV9, under Default Screen, it shows 1440 by 900 as a choice | 08:20 |
| zero | so why isnt mine working? | 08:20 |
| PeterParkerSubZ1 | bazhang: err driver? I tried to download one from the site and it didnt offer linux so I just went with the defaults in ubuntu | 08:20 |
| bazhang | chazco: they would likely know more | 08:21 |
| chazco | jussi01 - The fonts aren't quite the same (and totally kill my other office app Textmaker) so the formatting is bad | 08:21 |
| Johninky | Thank you Dfgas | 08:21 |
| chazco | Ah ok, will try open office | 08:21 |
| chazco | (IRC) | 08:21 |
| bazhang | PeterParkerSubZ1: the restricted driver? from the restricted driver manager? or the one from nvidia site (they do have a linux driver btw) | 08:22 |

| visik7 | hi, I've a dual head configuration with an nvidia geforce 7400, is there a way to use the second monitor as a workspace not as an extension of 1 workspace ? | 08:38 |
| IcemanV9 | Bidget: you got the right idea | 08:39 |
| bazhang | PeterParkerSubZ1: please check the restricted drivers manager first | 08:39 |
| Bidget | IcemanV9, ok phew hahaha | 08:39 |

| doom__ | <slowlearner> doom__: add it to sessions -> ok and how does it start automatically the virtual machine i want? | 08:40 |

| warlocky | Anyone? :( | 08:40 |
| doom__ | u see i need to leave my pc on for the easter holidays and i need that virtual machine open all the time | 08:40 |
| someonne | ? | 08:40 |
| * IcemanV9 is dead tired ... it's 240 am ... and the game bet col & sd is dragging on !! | 08:41 | |
| phish | On windows i've got tortoisesvn which integrates nicely into windows ( files have nice icons on them showing their current state ). Is there something similar for linux? :D | 08:41 |
| Bidget | ok so I just totally messed up an installation of something... is there some way I can just sort of undo what I did and start over | 08:41 |
| bazhang | phish things like svn git bzr? that what you are referring to? | 08:41 |
| warlocky | Hey guys, pure-ftpd recently just quit working for me. I can't seem to start it, I've tried re-installing it 4 times now with no success. | 08:42 |
| slowlearner | doom__: virtual box must have an option to load a default vm, else just leave your machine on. | 08:42 |
| doom__ | slowlearner, i WILL leave it on, but in case of a power cut.../ | 08:43 |
| magnetron | warlocky: did you try to "remove completely" on pure-ftpd in synaptic? that will purge settings as well | 08:43 |
| phish | bazhang: well each file has an icon on it telling me whethers it's "ok" "different" etc. | 08:43 |
| phish | right in the folder that i'm looking at. | 08:43 |
| Tweaker | So I guess no one knows anything about why the game updator just hangs? | 08:43 |
| bazhang | phish no idea how windows works; those are the linux equivalents | 08:44 |
| phish | :X | 08:44 |
| phish | I'll try to find a screenshot :D | 08:44 |
| bazhang | phish not really necessary; you can try those out and see which best suits your needs | 08:45 |
| osfameron | morning | 08:46 |
| visik7 | bazhang: my dual head configuration is working perfectly I'm just asking for a strange configuration not usually mentioned | 08:46 |
| osfameron | how can I reinstall my /etc/whatever/menu.lst after reinstalling Windows (which saw fit to kill it) | 08:46 |
| phish | bazhang: I'm just wondering if the ones you suggested are integrated with the desktop/file browser or whatever. | 08:46 |
| phish | or are they cmd line? | 08:46 |
| bazhang | visik7: I see; not sure how to help out as I only use the one; apart from using a linux box as a media center for a tv no real experience there | 08:47 |

| magnetron | warlocky: right click on the packet in synaptic | 08:47 |
| osfameron | bazhang: thanks | 08:48 |
| warlocky | Not running graphical, server. | 08:48 |
| osfameron | oh thank $deity, I didn't overwrite my linux partitions either | 08:48 |
| magnetron | warlocky: then you would have to read up on "man apt-get" | 08:48 |

| tuntun_ | I really hate how some windows are resizeable, but don't have a maximise button. How can I force it to have a maximise button? | 08:51 |
| overboard | can any1 help i'm upgrading from red hat to ubuntu and want to move the users across is this possible? | 08:51 |
| bazhang | tuntun_: which ones in particular | 08:51 |
| slowlearner | doom__: sorry can't help anymore.. maybe you should check out the docs for virtualbox | 08:51 |
| doom__ | it's ok slowlearner, thanks a lot for all the help :( | 08:52 |
| bazhang | overboard the data, or all the usernames, passwords, etc | 08:52 |
| tuntun_ | bazhang, eg xchat 'channel list' window | 08:52 |
| overboard | baz: i was just going to copy of the gshadow, shadow, users, the other one as well which i cant think of and then copying that on the new box | 08:53 |
| bazhang | tuntun_: that would seem to be by design; ask the developers of xchat to change the design? | 08:53 |
| overboard | all i realy want is the usernames and passwords | 08:53 |
| tuntun_ | bazhang, in sure the windowing manager could override it :-\ | 08:54 |
| overboard | (other file was passwd) | 08:54 |
| bazhang | overboard: that would seem to have a very low chance of working; does redhat not use a whole different permissions system than debian/ubuntu? | 08:54 |
| wers | how do I convert a .flv audio to .ogg or mp3? | 08:54 |
| === qmario__ is now known as QMario | ||
| overboard | i don't know i thought red hat has shadow passwords just like ubuntu | 08:55 |
| Tweaker | Well I guess no one knows why the updater just hangs so Im out | 08:55 |
| magnetron | wers: use ffmpeg. you may need the medibuntu repository for some patented formats (illegal in USA, legal in the rest of the world) | 08:55 |
| overboard | is there any other way that you might know | 08:55 |
| bazhang | overboard: you can certainly try though; if nothing else it will be interesting | 08:56 |
| overboard | but if i try and it doesn't work then i will not be able to log in with root or anyother user name | 08:56 |
| overboard | see my issue :P | 08:56 |
| wers | thanks, magnetron :) | 08:57 |
| m0u5e | anyone know when hardy will be relased precisely to the hour? | 08:58 |
| m0u5e | hardy RC that is | 08:58 |
| bazhang | overboard: indeed I sympathize; I know of creating an ubuntu install from inside another linux distro, but importing user data seems limited as this point to transitioning from windows; if ubuntu can do it, then that would be apparent in the installer itself which has an import user data window--you could go to there and then just cancel out if it failed to find it | 08:58 |
| Flannel | m0u5e: no. nobody does. And hardy questions are in #ubuntu+1 | 08:58 |
| m0u5e | Flannel: i've asked in there too ;__; | 08:59 |
| FulmineNero | hi guys | 08:59 |
| bazhang | m0u5e: an hour is added everytime someone asks | 08:59 |
| FulmineNero | somebody can tell me whi cd exampledir doesn't work in a shell script? | 08:59 |
| FulmineNero | why* | 08:59 |
| m0u5e | bazhang: then it's already been postponed past the actual release date :/ | 08:59 |
| geirha | overboard: copying passwd and group is a bad idea, you mess up uids big time, since red hat and ubuntu use different uids and gids for system users and groups | 08:59 |
| bazhang | m0u5e: so stop asking! at this rate it wont be til next year ;] | 09:00 |
| overboard | damn :S | 09:00 |
| geirha | overboard: you need to selectively copy/paste the lines from passwd, shadow and group for the users you want to transfer | 09:00 |
| overboard | that sucks big time | 09:00 |
| m0u5e | bazhang: thats fine with me... but i need to know the date xD | 09:00 |
| m0u5e | knowing that it won't be released this year, is better than not knowing at all xD | 09:00 |
| bazhang | m0u5e: april 24 2011 | 09:00 |
| overboard | ok | 09:00 |
| jaffarkelshac | hey guys, i have been looking around for lightscribe and video editors for ogg files but so far nothing, any suggestions? | 09:00 |
| m0u5e | bazhang: lol just in time for the next LTS LOL | 09:00 |
| overboard | geirha what parts do i need? | 09:01 |
| overboard | or what parts do i not need (which will cause issues?) | 09:02 |
| geirha | overboard: well, to transfer «usera», copy the line starting with usera from passwd and shadow, and check what groups usera is a member of in group, then try to reproduce that on ubuntu's group file | 09:02 |
| overboard | ummm painfull :) | 09:04 |
| overboard | but gotta be done :) | 09:04 |
| Carbonflux | can anyone help me with clues as to why using Samba I can't see any of my Linux shares from Vista but I can see all my Vista shares from inside Linux ? seems like Samba is working in terms getting access to windows shares so I assume its just something about my host name etc. :) | 09:06 |
| geirha | overboard: might be easier to create new users with the same name using system -> admin -> users and groups. Then remove their new homedir, copy in the old, and chown it to the new uid. Then you only need to copy the one line from shadow | 09:06 |
| === LSD|Ninj1 is now known as LSD|Ninja | ||

| Carbonflux | bazhang, ya when I browse the network from the Vista end I can't even see the machine | 09:07 |
| Carbonflux | but from Linux I have total access to the Vista machine | 09:07 |

| Angel_of_Doom | hi | 09:10 |

| bazhang | Jwyanze: you figured it out? | 09:10 |
| FulmineNero | somebody can tells me why cd exampledir doesn't work in a shell script? | 09:10 |
| Carbonflux | bazhang, well, I think it just can't find my host linux end because I am not sure how to setup the domain/workgroup stuff | 09:11 |
| Angel_of_Doom | can anyone explane me how to install apps in ubuntu? | 09:11 |
| Jwyanze | bazhang: yep i am talking from ubuntu7.10 now in pidgin | 09:11 |

| Stylee | what document viewer uses ubuntu by default for viewing PDFs? | 09:13 |
| Carbonflux | bazhang, google has been frustrating on this issue, I will just go back to it, it either gives me too much or too little, at this point I think I will have to slow down and do a manual edit of all the config files and review the settings which I was hoping to avoid heh | 09:13 |
| Jwyanze | thanks bazhang and ubotu. now to get wine to test PortableApps with it | 09:13 |

| Skaar1 | can someone help me with synaptic: i can't launch it and i get "Segmentation fault (core dumped)" | 10:08 |
| KrimZon | powertool08: you might be able to install wubi and then use lvpm to copy the installation to real partitions on the usb drive | 10:09 |
| noiesmo | Mattz, check /etc/iftab file the mac address needs to match ur nic | 10:09 |
| KrimZon | powertool08: but that's quite a long winded way, and can be a bit tricky | 10:09 |
| noiesmo | Mattz, and also be named eth0 | 10:09 |
| Mattz | noiesmo, that was where I was looking for :) I couldn' t find it well in interfaces :) | 10:09 |
| powertool08 | hmm, would it work in a vm? | 10:10 |
| Mattz | noiesmo, I don' t have such a file :S | 10:10 |

| Mattz | Skaar1, I have seen it on google one | 10:10 |
| Mattz | once | 10:10 |
| Mattz | dunno why | 10:11 |
| noiesmo | Mattz, it's been replaced i think check See /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules | 10:11 |
| ActionParsnip | Skaar1: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt/+bug/113424 | 10:12 |
| Mattz | noiesmo, it is, thanks ! | 10:12 |
| KrimZon | powertool08: that might too, i don't know if installing and then effectively changing the hardware would cause significant problems | 10:12 |
| noiesmo | Mattz, :) | 10:12 |
| Skaar1 | ok, i'll look at that | 10:12 |
| blight | Anyone here running/has run XP in KVM? | 10:12 |

| * Mattz needs a reboot | 10:13 | |
| Mattz | cu soon | 10:13 |
| * Mattz is normally MatBoy :) | 10:13 | |
| ActionParsnip | azuki: in what way and how do you mean shortcut? | 10:14 |
| powertool08 | bazhang: i want to install to a usb drive but i don't want to burn a cd, i'd like to install straight from the image if possible, and i have virtualbox so i could boot from the image but wasn't sure if it would work that way or not | 10:14 |
| azuki | well.. by having 2 bars on top of my screen it seriously smallens my desktop, when I open a window and the size is standardly a certain size, the resize in the lower left is out of the screen :(... so I have to move my bars all the time.. which is annoyinh, ActionParsnip | 10:15 |
| bazhang | powertool08: what system is running now? | 10:15 |
| azuki | ActionParsnip: like ctrl-s or something | 10:15 |
| powertool08 | bazhang: ubuntu feisty | 10:16 |
| ActionParsnip | azuki: I think if you hold ctrl + shift and click close it stores the position | 10:16 |
| bazhang | powertool08: you might look into lubi then | 10:16 |
| azuki | even if it's a wine emulation? | 10:16 |
| ActionParsnip | azuki: i believe so | 10:16 |
| azuki | I'll check it ou | 10:16 |
| bartmon | Hey! I'm looking for a virtualisation solution which will run Windows with at least some 3d support, I need ot for 3d modelling so it doesn't have to be super fast. I tried VirtualBox and it's very nice for non 3d apps but I'd really like to run some software which wine can't handle. Is VmWare the only other solution? | 10:18 |
| bazhang | bartmon: parallels may have limited 3d support | 10:19 |
| azuki | ActionParsnip: that didn't work :/.. | 10:19 |
| ActionParsnip | bah | 10:20 |
| bartmon | bazhang: thanks, i'll check it out. | 10:20 |
| slowlearner | azuki: or you can alt+click to drag and then resize once you find the edges | 10:20 |
| bazhang | powertool08: you can /msg ubotu wubi and check the ubuntuforums link for more info on lubi | 10:20 |
| azuki | slowlearner: DOH... | 10:20 |
| azuki | slowlearner: ofcourse.. :) | 10:21 |
| azuki | didn't think of that | 10:21 |
| bartmon | bazhang: Are you sure parallels are for Linux? Because from what I see it's for MacOS X | 10:21 |
| azuki | slowlearner: oh wait.. that doesn't work up and down | 10:21 |
| azuki | only to the left and to the right | 10:21 |
| powertool08 | bazhang: ok, thanks i'll look into it tomorrow, now i need to sleep | 10:21 |
| slowlearner | azuki: oh yeah! mine too :D sorry | 10:22 |
| azuki | slowlearner: but the fix is there: turn of in compiz the Y-restriction | 10:22 |
| azuki | then it works.. | 10:22 |

All number keys work (0123456789). | 10:25 |
| S[r]us | i can however reach tty4-6 using echo -e "\033[12;4]" for instance, so these are running | 10:25 |

| Myholyleg | kajo, I think hibernation just stores whatever is on the RAM in your harddrive and shutsdown. When you start your computer again it reloads everything into the RAM. | 12:18 |
| zishan | in linux | 12:19 |

| IdleOne | guja_nebeska: sudo apt-get install build-essential | 12:19 |
| jrib | guja_nebeska: use your favorite package manager, synaptic, apt, whatever. For example: sudo aptitude install build-essential | 12:19 |
| ActionParsnip | wouter__: have you googled? | 12:19 |
| zishan | is it possible to compile jsp files in when i install by the command apt-get install apache2 in linux | 12:19 |
| zishan | ??? | 12:19 |
| zishan | or do i need tomcat5.5 | 12:20 |
| zishan | ?? | 12:20 |
| kajo | sorry, that was my first ever question in this room. Once again, and in user friendly, single paragraph format: When I run /etc/acpi/hibernate.sh in my terminal, it appears functional; but when the script halts, my screen has some words, and basically says "power down". I think it powered itself down once, but all other times, it sticks there. So I manually turn it off, and it works (albeit,... | 12:20 |
| kajo | ...one time the audio didn't work when I loaded the hibernated session back up). | 12:20 |
| jrib | !enter | zishan | 12:20 |
| ubotu | zishan: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 12:20 |
| wouter__ | ActionParsnip: I did, didn't find anything usefull though. My problem is related to the theme | 12:20 |

| buckie | Hi I need to get the ip of a Gutsy gibbon system, I have a friend who can asses the system with putty over network | 12:53 |
| buckie | any suggestions ? | 12:53 |
| sipior | buckie: ifconfig | 12:53 |
| zerobias | ifconfig | 12:53 |
| buckie | yes | 12:53 |
| buckie | but | 12:53 |
| buckie | it gives local ip only | 12:53 |
| buckie | ....or so it seems ? | 12:54 |
| zerobias | so you need the router ip | 12:54 |
| mattheww_ | hello everyone | 12:54 |
| buckie | zerobias, its a old router with no software, is there a standart way of retriveing it ? | 12:54 |
| NekoKun | Can I somehow list the installed packages and the space used by them? I've installed xUbuntu, but I want to slim it down | 12:54 |
| sipior | buckie: so you mean you have a router which is performing address translation for your network to the general internet? and you want your friend to be able to connect to your machine. | 12:54 |
| mattheww_ | i'm a linux nebie struggling with the install of Ubuntu - probably due to my broadcom wireless device | 12:55 |
| mattheww_ | anyone available for some advice on the isntall problem i'm having? | 12:55 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !broadcom | 12:55 |
| ubotu | Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Broadcom43xx | 12:55 |
| buckie | sipior, not really i want to be able to connect to the server useing ssh | 12:55 |
| buckie | as a start | 12:55 |
| zerobias | buckie: can you use one of those internet sites?? | 12:55 |
| sipior | buckie: which server do you mean? | 12:55 |
| zerobias | might use dyndns | 12:56 |
| buckie | sipior, Gutsy gibbon | 12:56 |
| mattheww_ | Thanks - but all the guides i have found relate to sorting it our post install - this is preventing me from installing alltogether | 12:56 |
| Ergo^ | hello | 12:56 |
| buckie | zerobias, yes i already did that - but I dont know the ip of the machine on the internet ? only lan ip | 12:56 |
| Ergo^ | shouldnt we have RC of hardy today ? | 12:56 |
| mattheww_ | when i boot the live cd it tries to launch and i get the logo and sliding statusbar | 12:56 |
| sipior | buckie: and you can't log in to the router? | 12:56 |
| mattheww_ | but after a while it just hangs to a black screen with a flashing cursor in the top left | 12:57 |
| guja_nebeska | How do I change with keeybord my installed keeybord languages? | 12:57 |
| zerobias | buckie: now you need to port forward your router to aim the ssh traffic to the ubuntu machine | 12:57 |
| guja_nebeska | Ho do I change from US to some other keeybord? | 12:57 |
| mattheww_ | if i run it in safe settings mode, it just repeats an error over and over telling me to upgrade the firmware | 12:57 |
| guja_nebeska | I have installed one more. | 12:57 |
| sipior | buckie: also, there are a number of sites that will show the address you appear to be connecting from. urls escape me at the moment, but i'm sure you can find something on google | 12:57 |
| buckie | sipior, no i cant log into the router | 12:57 |
| guja_nebeska | But I don't want to go to system, keeybord, etc. | 12:58 |
| guja_nebeska | Is there a shortcut? | 12:58 |
| mattheww_ | I want to know how I can skip through that and complete the install withiout it, and sort it out once ubuntu is installed | 12:58 |
| buckie | sipior, its a server it has no screen, no keyboard, and no mouse | 12:58 |
| zerobias | buckie: no access to the router?? | 12:58 |
| sipior | buckie: zerobias without being able to log in to the router, you won't be able to forward ssh, or anything else :-) | 12:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | mattheww_, At start or install press F6 and remove Quiet and Splash from the command line. If it still fails.. Repeat and after removing quiet and splash add noapic acpi=off before the "--" | 12:58 |
| buckie | zerobias, no its a old router we set up for shareing internet connection | 12:58 |
| buckie | sipior, I have the ip to a pc that is on the same router does that help ? | 12:59 |
| guja_nebeska | How do I change between my installed keeyboards with a shortcut and not going into system/keeyboard/etc... ? Thank You. | 12:59 |
| mattheww_ | thanks jack_sparrow | 12:59 |
| Jack_Sparrow | mattheww_, aside from that.. do what it says.. | 12:59 |
| zerobias | buckieC sounds like you need to figure out how to acess the router first | 12:59 |
| buckie | zerobias, ok ill figure it out :) | 13:00 |
| sipior | buckie: no. but perhaps you have the manual? try pointing your web browser to 192.168.1.1 or the like? | 13:00 |
| mattheww_ | One other thing - I read somewhere about a boot parameter called nonet that I can add to the boot - its supposed to stop the loading of network drivers | 13:00 |
| mattheww_ | would that help? | 13:00 |
| Parsi | hi, is there a tool to check disk? | 13:00 |
| guja_nebeska | How do I change between my installed keeyboards with a shortcut and not going into system/keeyboard/etc... ? Thank You. | 13:00 |

| Mole_ | Anyone good at solving wierd/low info errors? | 13:05 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Dewitt, Install windows.. but create a partition that is smaller than the total size of your dirve... once done insert the ubuntu cd and boot it and tell it to use all unallocated space and it will do the rest | 13:05 |
| Jack_Sparrow | simmerz, no idea | 13:05 |
| sipior | Mole_: low info errors? | 13:06 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Mole_, Just ask the questionor describe the issue | 13:06 |
| N1N31NCHN41L6 | hello | 13:06 |
| Dewitt | Jack_Sparrow: can you tell me how it will work, Grub will load windows? I will have two partitions - first for Ubuntu(ext3) and second - for Windows(NTFS) | 13:07 |
| N1N31NCHN41L6 | have a slightly off topic i need help with ndiswrapper | 13:07 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Dewitt, correct, grub will give you the option of windows or ubuntu, you can also select a default or either if you wish | 13:07 |
| Mole_ | Currently trying to install ubuntu Feisty Fawn on my 80G IDE HDD, its giving me a error like: "Couldn't make a ext3-filesystem on partition #1 on IDE1 slave (hdb)" Roughly translated:P | 13:07 |
| IdleOne | Dewitt: grub will show you a list of operating systems upon boot and you will choose wich to boot. windows or ubuntu in this case | 13:08 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Dewitt, I have dual booted for years.. quite easy | 13:08 |
| N1N31NCHN41L6 | when u boot ur comp grub will load and hold for however long u set during install giving u a choice of which os to load | 13:08 |
| Parsi | is there a disk cheker that supports NTFS?? | 13:08 |
| lesshaste | N1N31NCHN41L6: there is a #ndiswrapper channel but it isn't used much | 13:08 |
| N1N31NCHN41L6 | no one there | 13:08 |
| Nom- | Anyone know if it's possible to specify at the boot loader that a specific kernel module must be loaded? | 13:08 |
| Mole_ | i tried it first with a old mandriva install, but as i got the error the first time i formatted the drive and still get the same error. | 13:08 |
| lesshaste | N1N31NCHN41L6: in any case.. don't ask to ask.. just ask :) | 13:08 |
| Nom- | My system is refusing to boot because nss_ldap is hanging in a retry forever, but I suspect the NIC driver hasn't been loaded when it reaches this point | 13:09 |
| Dewitt | Jack_Sparrow: I just wanted some technical details, like how it works, where are ntldr and boot.ini to be located? | 13:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Dewitt, they will stay put on the first partition | 13:09 |
| sipior | Mole_: could you show the specific error? | 13:09 |
| Mole_ | its norwegianx( but here you go: http://bayimg.com/DAjOBAABg | 13:09 |

| Dewitt | Jack_Sparrow: abd load windows manually | 13:10 |
| N1N31NCHN41L6 | anyone can help me install wireless? | 13:10 |
| Mole_ | I'll try starting a english install. | 13:10 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Dewitt, the first 512k on the mbr will point to grub on the ext3 of the ub install which will pick up your windows install. | 13:10 |
| Nom- | My favourite method for getting rid of windows is dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hda | 13:10 |
| Nom- | works a charm | 13:10 |
| Dewitt | Jack_Sparrow: 512k ??? kilobytes? | 13:10 |
| Nom- | Note: I DONT suggest doing that :D | 13:10 |
| lesshaste | Nom-: :) silly | 13:11 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Dewitt, bytes.. sorry | 13:11 |
| sipior | Mole_: could you try opening a terminal and running the following: "sudo mke2fs /dev/hdb1" | 13:11 |
| Siph0n | N1N31NCHN41L6, do u have a wireless card? which one? what chipset? | 13:11 |
| lesshaste | Nom-: actually my favourite method is vmware convertor followed by dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hda | 13:11 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Dewitt, force of habit | 13:11 |
| alanbshepard70 | Due to the placement of my wifi access point I lose signal several times a day which makes downloads tedious since I have to notice that I've been disconnected and manually reconnect. Is there a utility that works like the windows wifi manager that will always try to reconnect to my access point and not just try once and give up like ubuntu currently does? | 13:11 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Dewitt, perhaps you should explain more about what you are trying to accomplish | 13:11 |
| simmerz | Jack_Sparrow: was a case of setting MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME | 13:11 |
| sipior | Mole_: also verify that hdb1 is the partition you want to install on, before running that :) | 13:11 |

| IdleOne | Dewitt: install windows first then ubuntu. windows will mess with grub or else | 13:12 |
| N1N31NCHN41L6 | should i do this | 13:12 |
| Dewitt | ok | 13:13 |
| anteaya | every once in a while (apparently every 33 boot-ups) I get this message on boot-up, /dev/sda3 has been mounted 33 times without being checked, check forced. My question is, what is this doing and am I neglecting to do some kind of system maintenance that I should be doing? | 13:13 |
| N1N31NCHN41L6 | if xubuntu wont install - says its dirty | 13:13 |
| sipior | Mole_: no, you'll be wanting a partition first :) | 13:13 |
| N1N31NCHN41L6 | and wont load kernel | 13:13 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Dewitt, if you dont want people to know you have a windows partition, you could set the grub timer to 1 and even rename the menu option so that only hitting escape on boot would bring up a menu that still would not say windows | 13:13 |
| Pici | anteaya: Thats a normal message. | 13:13 |

| NekoKun | Can I somehow list the installed packages and the space used by them? I've installed xUbuntu, but I want to slim it down | 13:32 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !clone | 13:33 |
| ubotu | To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade » - See also !automate | 13:33 |
| QuickGold | How do I wipe out my network settings and in effect, start from scratch? | 13:33 |
| sandraaaa | any help | 13:33 |
| S[r]us | Drayman: you could install oneko ;) | 13:33 |
| nxusr | How do i secure a wireless keyboard? | 13:33 |
| cdecarlo | NekoKun: you may want to check out #xubuntu as well (if you're not already) | 13:34 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sandraaaa, looking now | 13:35 |
| sandraaaa | thx | 13:35 |
| nexen | hello everybody | 13:36 |
| nexen | do you know where is the ubuntu icon (the menu icon), I want to change it... ? | 13:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sandraaaa, from what I can tell it works if you compile the driver yourself manually | 13:37 |
| Mole_ | sipior: Now fdisk won't find any HDD's on hda or hdb, but there is a disk hdc at 732 MB. | 13:37 |
| Mole_ | which is confusing, since my HDD is at 80G and was recently at /dev/hdb | 13:37 |
| Cameron | hi. if I download the desktop-amd64.iso, and then install lvm, can I install to a LVM root partition ? | 13:37 |
| sipior | Mole_: hdc is the cd, i would imagine | 13:38 |
| sandraaaa | how to do that | 13:38 |
| nananuu | how can I configure my resolution higher than 1024x768 ? | 13:38 |
| bradleyh | Hey all. I'm using Ubuntu 6.06, and am trying to connect to my wireless Access Point I have set up accross the yard. I have a Netgear WG311v3 Wireless PCI adapter installed (crap). Problem is, it picks up the access point fine, but it won't obtain an IP address so I have no Internet access. I have tried lookign everywhere but I Am at my witts end. Any suggestions? thanks | 13:39 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sandraaaa, you can check the forums.. here is an old link. there must be newer ones http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=651152 | 13:39 |
| sipior | Mole_: very bizarre that your disk should just vanish. is this a new system? | 13:39 |
| sandraaaa | OK | 13:39 |
| adam12523 | bradleyh, set your own ip? | 13:39 |
| bradleyh | adam12523, tried that | 13:39 |
| Mole_ | sipior: Well, not exactly.. its about 4 years old. | 13:39 |
| Jack_Sparrow | nananuu, Install the right driver for your card. 1024 max is usually caused by vesa default which has 1024 max | 13:39 |
| Mole_ | The hdd is older though. | 13:40 |
| adam12523 | bradleyh, distance? | 13:40 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Mole_, what does bios show on boot for those drives | 13:40 |
| sipior | Mole_: might be the thing is dying. you can see if a reboot sorts things out, but i'd keep a close eye on the thing, even if the install does work... | 13:40 |
| bradleyh | adam12523, it's only about 10 meters away | 13:40 |
| Tyreus | Hi all, can anyone help me with the desktop effects. Cant enable them when using two displays. | 13:40 |
| pajamian | bradleyh: what type of encryption are you using on your WAP? | 13:40 |
| nexen | do you know where is the ubuntu icon (the menu icon), I want to change it... ? | 13:41 |
| bradleyh | pajamian, just WEP at the moment | 13:41 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Tyreus, there is a limit on total resolution for effects... | 13:41 |
| nananuu | Jack_Sparrow, hmm but every thing was all right when I turned on my computer the last time | 13:41 |
| Mole_ | sipior: I've got my 320G Sata hdd which is not nearly as old, but i have had some issues installing anything on it because installers keep messing up the drivers my mainboard is missing. | 13:41 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Tyreus, you add the res of the monitors together to get your total res | 13:41 |
| Mole_ | I'll try a reboot. | 13:42 |
| Mole_ | bye. | 13:42 |
| pajamian | bradleyh: have tyou checked to see if there's another WAP in the area that is on the same channel and possible clashing? | 13:42 |
| elza | sandraaaa, you help me? | 13:42 |
| Jack_Sparrow | nananuu, what did you during your last session that whould change things.. install or upgrade anything | 13:42 |
| sandraaaa | hehe | 13:42 |
| sandraaaa | how | 13:42 |
| bradleyh | pajamian, yep. I live in a pretty regional area. No other APs nearby | 13:42 |
| Tyreus | What does that mean in detail? | 13:43 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Tyreus, what res are you trying to run on those monitors | 13:43 |
| nananuu | Jack_Sparrow, I will check Thank you | 13:43 |
| Jack_Sparrow | k | 13:43 |
| pajamian | bradleyh: when you tried manually configuring the IP did you restart networking after configuring? | 13:43 |
| nxusr | how do i secure my wireless keyboard? | 13:43 |
| Tyreus | One runs on 1440x900 and the other on 1024x768 | 13:44 |
| pajamian | nxusr: get a keyboard that is not wireless. | 13:44 |
| ligemeget | Hi people, I have a problem: I'm running Ubuntu installed through Wubi, and Ubuntu can easily access the Windows-files - except for the problem that it doesn't display any files or foldes with special characters like æ, ø, å and ð in the filenames. | 13:44 |
| IdleOne | nxusr: bolt it to the desk | 13:44 |
| bradleyh | pajamian, if you mean with ifdown, yes | 13:44 |
| ligemeget | Are the Wubi-people aware of this issue? | 13:44 |
| nxusr | pajamian, just say you don't know | 13:44 |
| Lamego | nxusr, the hw security is not managed by the OS, your question is off topic | 13:44 |
| pajamian | bradleyh: I mean: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 13:44 |
| nxusr | anyone else with a response | 13:44 |
| unop | nxusr, off topic | 13:44 |
| bradleyh | pajamian, ah. nope.. haven't tried that | 13:45 |
| unop | ligemeget, what version of ubuntu? hardy? | 13:45 |
| pajamian | nxusr: I mean that it can't be done unless the keyboard itself supports it, the whole wireless aspect and the security and encryption is all done at a hardware level before ubuntu even sees the keyboard. | 13:45 |
| ligemeget | unop, yes | 13:45 |
| Quintasan | Hi, I have recently updgraded to 8.04, I'm using KDE and after the upgrade the content of my home folder started showing up on desktop and they are "linked" whenever I delete something from desktop it gets deleted in /home | 13:45 |
| === Susefreak is now known as noobcake | ||
| unop | ligemeget, please take this issue to #ubuntu+1 | 13:45 |
| Lamego | !hardy | 13:45 |
| ubotu | Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 24, 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE BETA SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu | 13:45 |
| Quintasan | sorry | 13:46 |
| adam12523 | Quintasan, that must suck | 13:46 |
| adam12523 | stop deleting it then lol | 13:46 |
| pajamian | bradleyh: reconfigure the IP manually and restart networking and see if that works. | 13:46 |
| nxusr | The keyboard does support encryption-- i know because i use the encryption software included in windows | 13:46 |
| ligemeget | ok | 13:46 |
| first_born_unico | i have dual boot(winXP + Ubuntu 7.10), everytime i switch off windows without proper shutdown my linux stops showing the drive on which i have windows and the other ntfs one. can any one help?? | 13:46 |
| Jack_Sparrow | nxusr, you dont secure a wireless keyboard. if it as issue, get a hardwire board | 13:46 |
| pajamian | bradleyh: if it works then you'll want to look at the dhcp server. | 13:46 |
| bradleyh | pajamian, will do. thanks | 13:46 |
| adam12523 | first_born_unico, not cleanly unmounted | 13:46 |
| adam12523 | first_born_unico, FORCE mount | 13:46 |
| first_born_unico | what is dat?? | 13:46 |
| first_born_unico | m new to linux | 13:47 |
| erUSUL | first_born_unico: that's intended behavior ntfs-3g refuses to mount ntfs fs in dirty state | 13:47 |
| noobcake | Hi there, I've got a problem with my laptop: on booting I get: PCI : Cannot allocate resource region 7 of bridge error message, what can I do to fix it? | 13:47 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Tyreus, I think you are right at the limit. if you reduce the res on the 1400 do you get effects. | 13:47 |
| Lamego | nxusr, then please check with your vendor if there is a driver with enables encryption for linux | 13:47 |
| adam12523 | first_born_unico, just shutdown correctly | 13:47 |
| erUSUL | noobcake: does any of your devices fail to work? | 13:47 |
| first_born_unico | yeah any other solution?? like it does not check that?? | 13:47 |
| erUSUL | noobcake: if not then the msg is just informative | 13:48 |
| noobcake | npe, alsways worked fine for me with M$ xp and ME | 13:48 |
| johan__ | !se | 13:48 |
| ubotu | Svensk Ubuntu- och Kubuntusupport hittar du pa #ubuntu-se resp. #kubuntu-se | 13:48 |
| nxusr | Lamego, i think its appropriate for me to ask here, but no, there is a driver available by the vendor | 13:48 |
| nxusr | i mean isnt | 13:48 |
| Lamego | first_born_unico, that is a data integrity feature, if the system was not properly shutdown the drive status is not safe | 13:48 |
| Lamego | nxusr, no it is not, since your issue is related to a very specific piece of hw, and to a rare feature which is related and implemented by your hw vendor | 13:49 |
| adam12523 | first_born_unico, if your new to linux and dont want to mess up your windows partition then just cleanly shutdown windows | 13:49 |
| o_michael_o | are ATI drivers for linux still problematic? | 13:50 |
| o_michael_o | compared to NVIDIA | 13:50 |
| nxusr | Lamego, by that standard, 80% of the questions here would be invalid | 13:50 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !ot | 13:50 |
| ubotu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 13:50 |
| adam12523 | first_born_unico, but if you really want to mount it and risk potential problems use the force flag | 13:50 |
| noobcake | michael yes, for older cards, newers are coming along nicely | 13:50 |
| Lamego | nxusr, not really, because >80% of the questions here are about the OS, or generic hw, not about wireless keyboards encryption | 13:50 |
| Nom- | Anyone seen a backported libapache2-mod-perl2 package for 6.10 ? | 13:51 |
| Nom- | 6.06 even | 13:51 |
| Nom- | I'm chasing 2.0.3 or 2.0.4 because they result a bug which is causing my apache to segfault :( | 13:51 |
| Nom- | *resolve | 13:51 |
| Tyreus | And another thing is that the nvidia software says "Fail to querry the GLX server" under "OpenGL/GLX information". | 13:52 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Tyreus, /join #Compiz | 13:52 |
| nxusr | Lamego, "generic hardware?" am not sure what that mean, hard compatibilty is hardware compatibilty. Am sure there are others who have the same question on how to encrypt a wireless key, it should actually be of interest especially in a community such as this | 13:53 |
| Tyreus | In the terminal? | 13:53 |
| Jack_Sparrow | nxusr, it all goes back to the vendor and if they supply linux specific drivers supporting the feature you want. You are probably using a generic wireless keyboard driver as supplied by ubuntu | 13:54 |
| kelvin911 | IE8? | 13:54 |
| kelvin911 | just found that there is IE8 beta | 13:54 |
| Lamego | kelvin911, and your question related to Ubuntu.. is ? | 13:55 |
| first_born_unico | well thanks lamego.. but sometimes it gets frustating that if some problem arises and i have to frocefully switch off my comp and next time even for linus i have to restart win!! :( | 13:55 |
| nxusr | Jack_Sparrow, remember ndiswrapper was created and became part of major distros because there was major demand for it.. we didnt say throw away your WLAN.. we came up with a solution...this should be the attitude | 13:56 |
| kelvin911 | i wonder if u can run IE in wine? | 13:56 |
| Pici | !ies4linux | kelvin911 | 13:56 |
| ubotu | kelvin911: ies4linux is a script that quickly and effortlessly helps you install 3 versions of IE in Wine. Information can be found at http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Main_Page including instructions specifically for Ubuntu. ies4linux is aimed at web designers and ie-only sites, so please, don’t use any of the IEs to navigate! Use Firefox! | 13:56 |
| Jack_Sparrow | nxusr, If it is a feature you MUST have then buy hardware that has a linux driver with that feature | 13:56 |
| nananuu | could you help me with my sound problem some times when I start my computer I have sound and some times I don`t have ans I have a another sound card not the orginnal with came with the pc | 13:56 |

| kelvin911 | my question is that if i install a program in wine, do i get virus if that file contain virus? | 13:57 |
| Jack_Sparrow | kelvin911, yes, but it wont do much of anything. | 13:57 |
| nxusr | 131518151419! | 13:57 |
| marx2k | naim | 13:57 |
| pajamian | kelvin911: since the bot isn't responding just google for ies4linux | 13:57 |
| kelvin911 | Jack_Sparrow: what u mean? | 13:57 |
| kelvin911 | i am not installing ie | 13:57 |
| Pici | pajamian: I just did the ies4linux factoid moments before Lamego tried to do it. | 13:57 |
| kelvin911 | i am curious if i run some exe file in wine, do i get infected? | 13:58 |
| pajamian | Pici: ahhh, that explains it | 13:58 |
| adam12523 | kelvin911, rofl | 13:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | kelvin911, it means that for the most part virus dont work under wine | 13:58 |
| compwiz18 | kelvin911: yes, but it probably won't work right | 13:58 |
| kelvin911 | is there virus that works in linux? | 13:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !virus | 13:58 |
| ubotu | A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 13:58 |
| Lamego | kelvin911, in the wild, no | 13:58 |
| cdecarlo | kelvin911: sure there is | 13:59 |
| Jack_Sparrow | kelvin911, stick to the repos | 13:59 |
| kelvin911 | anyone's ubuntu got infected? | 13:59 |
| adam12523 | kelvin911, yes its called the user | 13:59 |
| cdecarlo | kelvin911: no | 13:59 |
| Chetic | anybody know if there's a real-time audio processing tool? (plugging in the guitar and getting audio effects) | 13:59 |
| IdleOne | kelvin911: there are very few virii in linux ( thanks to Windows ) | 13:59 |
| cdecarlo | kelvin911: it doesn't make any sense to write a virus for linux, there's not enough market share | 13:59 |
| pajamian | kelvin911: wine can separate out several instances of windows in such a way that all that will be infected is that small windows area for that one application and clearing the infection is as easy as deleting and re-isntalling that one app. | 13:59 |
| Jack_Sparrow | kelvin911, please read the link.. if you need to continue.. please join Ubuntu-offtopic as it is not support related | 14:00 |

| kelvin911 | ok my another ubuntu question is, if a window freezes, other than use force quit, can u kill it in terminal? | 14:01 |
| dassouki | i meant grammar check to gedit. sorry | 14:01 |
| Keithamus | doubt it dassouki | 14:01 |
| pajamian | kelvin911: yes, with the kill or killall command. | 14:01 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Keithamus, you can kill a process yes. | 14:01 |
| Lamego | kelvin911, yes, using kill | 14:01 |
| IdleOne | kelvin911: ps aux | grep app-name | 14:01 |
| erUSUL | Keithamus: kill PID or use xkill | 14:01 |
| kelvin911 | will killall kill all processes? | 14:01 |
| dassouki | darn! | 14:01 |
| Lamego | kelvin911, man killall | 14:02 |

| kelvin911 | i mean other windows that is not freeze? | 14:02 |
| fuze | hi guys! | 14:02 |
| pajamian | kelvin911: killall kills a process by name, kill does it by the process ID number | 14:02 |
| Lamego | kelvin911, open a terminal, and type, man killall | 14:02 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Keithamus, sorry about that | 14:02 |

| erUSUL | mjung: i spect that the only difference is in config options not patches but i dunno for sure | 14:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | nananuu, One of your sound cards is built into your mb correct? | 14:09 |
| georgyyy | athlon pc 768mb ram 1,6 proc! | 14:09 |
| pajamian | noobcake: that doesn't mean anything. Linux uses the resources on your computer to thier full extent to get better proformance and it means that often times hardware problems will show up in linux but not in Windows. | 14:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | nananuu, on boot hit esc or whatever you need to get into setup and disable it | 14:10 |
| nananuu | Jack_Sparrow, yes that's correct | 14:10 |

| buckie | Hi could anyone tell me why this bash stalls after the first ip ? | for i in `cat cat.txt`; do ssh $i;done; | 14:16 |
| bradleyh | Hey all again. Still trying to get this WG311v3 Wireless PCI Adapter to work. It finds the AP fine, but can't obtain an IP address, so no Internet access. Tried setting IP information manually and restarting network to no avail | 14:16 |
| Jack_Sparrow | buckie, try /join #Bash | 14:16 |
| Ace2016 | ok i found krandrtray it says its running at 50hz!!!! | 14:16 |
| Ace2016 | and i told xorg it runs at 85Hz | 14:16 |
| buckie | Jack_Sparrow, ok thx | 14:16 |
| Vasa | Hey, could someone help me with GRUB? | 14:16 |
| torgrimt | buckie: there is an option to ssh that tells it not to expect a real terminal. | 14:16 |
| Ace2016 | Vasa: well first tell us the problem | 14:17 |
| bullgard4 | Jack_Sparrow: "~$ cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf | grep 'screen resolution'" obtains no output. | 14:17 |
| Jack_Sparrow | bullgard4, you are running hardy right.. | 14:17 |
| Vasa | When having XP's MBR, Diagnostics partition could be launched with f10 | 14:17 |
| Vasa | When having GRUB's MBR, F10 try to load GRUB but fails | 14:17 |
| bullgard4 | Jack_Sparrow: I am running two computers. One runs Hardy. | 14:18 |
| Jack_Sparrow | bullgard4, there is a reason we have different channels.. xorg is entirely different.. thanks for wasting our time | 14:18 |
| Rasalgethi | Printing question: The printer I'm using (NRG DSc328) interprets the test page postscript file from "Printer configuration" as raw text and prints hundreds of meaningless (mostly blank) pages. What is typically the problem when this happens? I'm using a PPD file from the OpenPrinting database. | 14:18 |
| Vasa | Cant I simply have GRub AND Diag partition together? | 14:18 |
| Ace2016 | well if you have a second partition grub should show 2 versions of xp, pick the right one for recovery | 14:18 |
| bullgard4 | Jack_Sparrow: Thank you for your familiy-friendly tone. | 14:19 |
| Jack_Sparrow | bullgard4, THe system you are working on is NOT gutsy.. | 14:19 |
| Vasa | that recovery partiton is XP independent, type of EISA FAT12, and should be directly launched via bios boot f10 | 14:19 |
| Vasa | Sorry for my poor english, hoping understand me | 14:20 |
| Jack_Sparrow | bullgard4, my response was the family friendly version... | 14:20 |

| noobcake | one other question should I pick gnash or falsh? | 14:24 |
| pajamian | noobcake: I generally pick flash | 14:24 |
| Vasa | My other problem: Ubuntu doesnt power off my machine | 14:24 |
| === Ubuntu-Noob is now known as GunnerKes | ||
| noobcake | I just performed a bios update on my laptop and the errors are gone | 14:25 |
| GunnerKes | Does anyone know how I can install Linux MCE without booting from a ISO? | 14:25 |
| pajamian | noobcake: cool. | 14:25 |
| biagidp | Do Xeon processors require a 64 or 32 bit OS? | 14:25 |
| GunnerKes | can I get it via the terminal? | 14:25 |
| noobcake | biagidp: they can handle both | 14:26 |
| erUSUL | biagidp: depends which one | 14:26 |
| sls | whats wrong with Banshee in this hardy? My Ipod does not show | 14:26 |
| pajamian | biagidp: xeon is a very large range of processors and some older ones are 32 bit. The 64 bit ones will work with either/both. | 14:26 |
| erUSUL | !hardy | sls | 14:26 |
| ubotu | sls: Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 24, 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE BETA SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu | 14:26 |
| biagidp | noobcake: is one more optimal than the other? I'm having some performance related issues and this is the first xeon system i've used | 14:26 |
| erUSUL | biagidp: depends on workload and amount of memory | 14:26 |
| pajamian | biagidp: 64 bit can be a little bit faster if your CPU supports it, but you will find that 32 bit has better compatiblity for more programs, especially for the desktop. My recommendation is if you are runnign desktop use 32 bit, but for server use 64 bit if your CPU supports it. | 14:27 |
| GunnerKes | anyone help then? | 14:28 |
| GunnerKes | =[ | 14:28 |
| Vasa | Any idea why ubunutu not shuts down? | 14:28 |
| biagidp | erUSUL: Mostly video-related lag, rendering websites, moving windows etc. I'm also running on a quadro nvidia card, which I've never done before | 14:28 |
| pajamian | Vasa: what message is left when it tries? | 14:28 |
| georgez | i have a quick question about the beta... if i upgrade my system to 8.04 beta will there be much i have to do to get to 8.04 release or will it be the same upgrade process | 14:29 |
| biagidp | erUSUL: but the nvidia driver is installed and my xorg.conf says it's using it, so I thought I check for other areas that might cause the problem | 14:29 |
| pajamian | !hardy | georgez | 14:29 |
| ubotu | georgez: Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 24, 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE BETA SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu | 14:29 |
| maek | georgez, just wait for the stable version ... not long now | 14:29 |
| Vasa | It's shuts down, but didnt poer offf my machine | 14:29 |
| biagidp | Less than 7 days! | 14:29 |
| Vasa | I have to hit the power off button | 14:30 |
| HZ | hello everyone | 14:30 |
| pajamian | Vasa: so what is the last message you see, then, before hitting the power off button? | 14:30 |
| Vasa | Ubunutu screen left on the screen | 14:30 |
| Vasa | splash screen | 14:30 |
| Vasa | the screen where the progress bar goes down | 14:30 |
| HZ | plz if it's possible anyone tell me where to find a real guide to install office 2007 on ubuntu using wine | 14:30 |
| Vasa | I have HP omnibook xe3 gc | 14:31 |
| hischild | !appdb | HZ | 14:31 |
| ubotu | HZ: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org | 14:31 |
| pajamian | Vasa: right, sorry, I was hoping it would have text there. There is a way to disable the splash screen so it actualyl shows the text of what it is doing, but I don't know what it is off the top of my head. Maybe someone else here will know? | 14:31 |
| HZ | hischild: what is appdb ? :( | 14:31 |
| Lamego | HZ, read what ubotu said | 14:32 |
| georgez | yeah you're probably right... i just was hoping that the upgrade would help me with my dual-head ATI problem | 14:32 |
| mikeg3 | Is there an easy way to replace or check th integrity of the grub bootloader? | 14:32 |
| hischild | HZ, read the message from ubotu. It's a database which has a lot of info on programs that can or cannot be made to run with wine. | 14:32 |
| ikonia | mikeg3: grub will be fine unless you have messed around with the mbr | 14:33 |
| HZ | lamego, hischild: thx I'll c | 14:33 |
| ubobo | who can recommend me one best downloading tool on ubuntu? | 14:34 |
| mikeg3 | I think I have a rootkit infection keyboardis crazy. | 14:34 |
| ikonia | ubobo: in what way ? | 14:34 |
| danie1 | hey, how can i change the charset in ubuntu? | 14:34 |
| Lamego | !best | ubobo | 14:34 |
| ubotu | ubobo: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 14:34 |

| afallenhope | hey how do you find the compile date of a module | 14:35 |
| danie1 | i changed /var/lib/locales/supported.d/de to the charset i want, then did dpkg-reconfigure locales | 14:35 |
| danie1 | but after restart it still uses the old charset | 14:35 |
| mikeg3 | how prevalent are viruses with ubuntu? | 14:35 |
| ubobo | p2p | 14:35 |
| xpoint | howto change from kdm to gdm | 14:35 |
| afallenhope | anyone? | 14:35 |
| Pici | xpoint: sudo dpkg-reconfigure kdm | 14:35 |
| ikonia | afallenhope: look at the time stamp on the moudule | 14:35 |
| afallenhope | ...how | 14:36 |
| sebastt | hello everyone. please i need some help. I installed Hardy and my ATI card is not working properly | 14:36 |
| afallenhope | /where | 14:36 |
| xpoint | Pici, thanks | 14:36 |
| ikonia | !hardy > sebastt | 14:36 |
| noobcake | ubobo: ktorrent, I am a big fan of it | 14:36 |
| sebastt | !hardy | 14:36 |
| ubotu | Hardy Heron is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS), due April 24, 2008 - For more info, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron - CONSIDER IT TO BE BETA SOFTWARE - Discussion and support in #ubuntu+1, NOT #ubuntu | 14:36 |
| pajamian | mikeg3: I'm not aware of any such viruses for ubuntu, it's the last thing I would suspect. | 14:36 |
| sebastt | thanks ikonia | 14:37 |
| ubobo | it's a bt tool,isn't? | 14:37 |
| danie1 | sebastt: had same problem with hardy, reinstalled gutsy - now its fine again | 14:37 |
| danie1 | i hope once hardy is stable driver will work flawlessly | 14:37 |
| mikeg3 | dying keyboad perhaps? | 14:38 |
| pajamian | mikeg3: btw, define "keyboard is crazy" | 14:38 |
| pajamian | mikeg3: what does it do or not do? | 14:38 |
| danie1 | again my question: how can i change my local charset in ubuntu gutsy? | 14:38 |
| mikeg3 | dropping keystrokes at radom intervalls | 14:38 |
| danie1 | i tried setting it in /var/lib/locales/supported.d/de and then did dpkg-reconfigure locales - but ubuntu still uses old charset | 14:38 |
| sebastt | daniel: oh, that sucks | 14:39 |
| pajamian | mikeg3: I would suspect that the keyboard is gone bad, yes. You can test by either (1) replacing with a known good keyboard and/or (2) booting to the live CD and seeing if it still does it. | 14:39 |
| sebastt | daniel: did you try every option available for the drivers? | 14:40 |
| Lamego | danie1, dpkg-reconfigure locales should be enough | 14:40 |
| pajamian | mikeg3: also, dropping keystrokes like that is usualyl just an indication that dirt has gotten into the keyboard and is blocking the keystrokes from making contact. | 14:40 |
| Vasa | Is there any way to use the Intel Speedstep technology? | 14:40 |
| danie1 | lamego, dpkg-reconfigure locales just resets the locales | 14:40 |
| danie1 | lamego, seems not to change anything | 14:40 |
| GunnerKes | ne experts with Linux MCE? | 14:40 |
| Myrtti | danie1: have you tried /etc/default/console-setup and /etc/default/locale or like? | 14:40 |
| mikeg3 | is it suffcient to run the cd integrity check in order to verify that ubuntu copy is pure? | 14:41 |
| Myrtti | mikeg3: define pure | 14:41 |
| pajamian | mikeg3: that will only verify that the CD is not corrupted. | 14:41 |
| Lamego | mikeg3, a damaged CD would not cause random keys being pressed | 14:42 |
| HSNews | people, tell me which programm I can see sysinfo in shell? | 14:42 |

| bwayne | HSNews: i like htop for cpu usage memusage. doesn't do eth0. | 14:43 |

| ubotu | danie1: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 14:43 |
| adisas | hi | 14:43 |

| bwayne | HSNews: you're swap's on. it's just not used. | 14:50 |
| tinin | Hi, how could I start an application in another computer and watch it in my pc with ssh? wich one is the command? | 14:50 |
| Lamego | HSNews, that means swap is configured, but not used, you dont need to turn it on | 14:50 |
| GhoSt_DoG | adisas: dvd shrink ? | 14:50 |
| Lamego | tinin, your your pc running linux ? | 14:50 |
| Lamego | i mean, your local PC | 14:50 |

| Lamego | tinin, login to the remote system with : ssh -X hostname | 14:51 |
| bwayne | HSNews: swap is rarely used in modern systems, with all the RAM and all. | 14:51 |
| tinin | the other one is a mac (but "should" be similar) Lamego | 14:51 |
| adisas | GhoSt_DoG: for example i have my backup files in /home/user, i want two copies stored on dvd. i have two recorders, how can i burn both at the same time? | 14:51 |

| amenado | a client is on 192.168.1.x lan side, the router/gateway has multiple interfaces, with 192.168.5.x on one.. if the client pings the router 192.168.5.x address -- should the router respond ? | 15:00 |
| Lamego | explorer2, it takes the same space as that file you got from sun :) | 15:01 |
| metbsd | amenado: yes | 15:01 |
| unop | amenado, depends if NAT is in use or not | 15:01 |
| kasjdflaskdfjals | o i get in | 15:01 |
| Lamego | amenado, not the router, but the clients connected to the router with such addresses | 15:01 |
| amenado | metbsd what config must be done on the router so it will respond to that ? | 15:02 |
| explorer2 | Lamego: you are correct. But I downloded this from some other place and have trasported it to my system thru USB | 15:02 |
| amenado | unop thats correct, NAT must be in use.. | 15:02 |
| bernaz | what is the shell command for change lcd brightness? | 15:02 |
| Lamego | explorer2, you can install it anyware, /opt is a good place | 15:02 |
| metbsd | correct ip and correct firewall | 15:02 |
| unop | amenado, are you pinging an IP address of one of the interfaces on the router? | 15:03 |
| theghost | i have to try skype too? | 15:03 |
| amenado | Lamego the router do respond, when pinging the 192.168.5.x ip interface of the router.. | 15:03 |
| amenado | unop yes..i had an alias to one of the router interfaces | 15:03 |
| unop | amenado, if NAT is enabled, is 192.168.5.x on the public/WAN side of the router? | 15:03 |
| explorer2 | Lamego: Ok I will install it there and add an entry to $PATH. But still when I run "java --version" it says java 1.4 where as what I installed is java 1.6 | 15:04 |

| thoreauputic | theghost: if you have a problem with skype, you need to report it to them: it's closed-source and Ubuntu developers can't do anything to fix it really | 15:07 |
| amenado | unop on the wan side, its an alias interface like eth0:1 | 15:07 |
| theghost | ok thanks | 15:07 |
| bazhang | theghost from the ubuntu wiki (gutsy) skype appears not to work with that cam ekiga and camorama do however; could you try ekiga and see if that is it; also did you install the gspca drivers? | 15:07 |
| thoreauputic | theghost: you might find some info on the Ubuntu forums or the wiki, as bazhang suggests | 15:08 |
| Lainy | I installed urxvt, but it didn't come with any man urxvt. How do I install this missing man page? I'm trying to figure out how to copy selected text. Ctrl+shift+c doesn't work and middle clicking to paste selected text isn't so reliable, it seems. Thanks. | 15:08 |
| theghost | yes i have installed gspca | 15:08 |
| theghost | ok thanks i will read | 15:08 |
| amenado | explorer2-> you need $JAVA_HOME to be set | 15:08 |
| explorer2 | Lamego: How can I change that? currently java1.4 is in /usr/bin/gij. But my $PATH has /usr/bin but not /usr/bin/gij. So should i remove /usr/bin/gij dir | 15:08 |

| thoreauputic | Lainy: try "apropos urxvt" or perhaps "man rxvt-unicode" | 15:09 |
| bazhang | theghost: those are not needed to be installed as they are reportedly in the kernel; what tutorial did you follow (link?) | 15:09 |
| Lamego | Lainy, check /usr/share/doc/urxvt there maybe some docs there | 15:09 |
| amenado | explorer2-> you have to fix the symlinks in update-alternatives | 15:09 |
| theghost | it's in Bulgarian | 15:09 |
| bazhang | theghost: you may also give ekiga a shot as it seems to work well | 15:09 |
| MrBill | I have a pretty recent install of Gutsy, but I'm finding that my printer (A Lexmark z51) is not working well. It's freezing up and the pages aren't coming all the way through. They are just "stalling" halfway through the printjob and the paper does not continue to feed. I have a Canon Pixma IP5000 with no ink, and I'm thinking to buy some new ink and try my luck with setting up that printer instead (the Lexmark is quite old, and maybe just be dyi | 15:09 |
| MrBill | ng rather than this being a config issue). Is there any way for me to gauge my likelihood of success with the Canon IP5000 before I invest money in ink cartridges for it? | 15:09 |
| Lamego | explorer2, eventually /usr/bin/java is a link ? you just need to remove and recreate | 15:09 |
| theghost | now i'm trying ekiga | 15:10 |

| Lamego | Helsu, which application ? | 15:11 |
| fayetteson_ | can't im u guys neeed to register | 15:11 |
| thoreauputic | Lainy: there's a man page for urxvt on hardy and on feisty - what are you running ? | 15:11 |
| Helsu | Krfb. | 15:11 |
| MrBill | I'm not looking to buy an entire new printer. I think I've decided the Lexmark is dead, and I already own a Canon Pixma IP 5000 ( I just need to buy ink for it) | 15:11 |
| amenado | MrBill furthermore, hp carthridges are easier to get.. | 15:12 |
| Helsu | Lamego: Krfb. | 15:12 |
| thoreauputic | Lainy: seems odd that there wouldn't be one on gutsy... | 15:12 |
| theghost | in ekiga there is an error when i'm trying my video hardware: Falid to open the device. Error while opening /dev/video0. | 15:12 |
| amenado | MrBill no not a new "new" printer, a used hp lj4 can be had for about 20-30 bux | 15:12 |
| erUSUL | MrBill: linuxprinting.org has rcomendations on what printer to buy depending on price range ... | 15:13 |
| Stormx2 | !startup | Helsu | 15:13 |
| ubotu | Helsu: To add programs to start up when you log into your Gnome session go to System>Preferences>Sessions and use the Startup Programs tab. For more information, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AddingProgramToSessionStartup - See !boot for starting non-interactive programs at boot | 15:13 |
| Lamego | Helsu, krfb works at the session level, I guess you need to start with the KDE session, dont ask me, I don't use kde | 15:13 |
| Helsu | Stormx2: I am not in Gnome. | 15:13 |
| MrBill | I'll take a look at linuxprinting.org - hopefully it'll tell me to buy the printer I already own, that would be ideal. | 15:13 |
| bazhang | MrBill: the support for the canon is there but seems not free; otherwise the print quality is not that great; here is a relevant link http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=35846 | 15:13 |

| bazhang | theghost: how did you install the drivers--please provide me the link to that tutorial | 15:15 |
| thoreauputic | Lainy: ah a glitch in the packaging perhaps | 15:15 |

| Stormx2 | Try again. | 15:18 |
| bazhang | theghost: well that camera is supported in both ekiga and camorama, so there is either a conflict (software of some kind) or another kind of glitch involved--sorry not to be more helpful but the info you have given seems a bit lacking; no tutorial etc | 15:18 |

| Orbixx | Kswissbob: Install the 64 bit edition. | 15:23 |
| Kswissbob | if i install the 64bit verssion will it let me get most of the programs i want? | 15:24 |

| Skiri-ki | ? | 15:38 |
| Skiri-ki | not getting it | 15:38 |
| Xbehave | is there any advantage to having a 64bit system with less than 4gb of ram? | 15:38 |
| yarihm | Lamego, thanks | 15:38 |
| Orbixx | Xbehave: There are other advantages to going 64 bit other than memory addressing. | 15:38 |
| mad_max02 | what are boot parameters to show dmesg while booting ?? | 15:39 |

| sipior | and others will perform slower... | 15:39 |
| Skiri-ki | so should I do it manually and create an 1 mb partition type: dontuse ? | 15:39 |
| KlrSpz | anyone have an experience getting the Netgear WG111 to work with Network Manager?

| Orbixx | but_psycho: What have you tried so far? | 15:39 |
| Xbehave | Skiri-ki: i have no idea why it happend, but i moved the partitions about (not the xp one) and after that it did work | 15:40 |
| amenado | Skiri-ki-> dont know what the 1mb you are referring to, but yeah choose manual partition during installation | 15:40 |
| Skiri-ki | that doesn't see any partitions either | 15:40 |
| VSpike | Orbixx / amenado : Just logged in to failsafe terminal and killed the ssh and sshfs processes, before doing a fusermount -u and all is well again | 15:40 |

| VSpike | Orbixx / amenado : so definitely related to fuse / sshfs | 15:41 |
| Xbehave | Skiri-ki: i used a livecd and expanded 1 empty partion by 1mb and shrunk the other 1mb, then afterwards ubuntu recognised the partitions | 15:41 |
| Skiri-ki | and I was refering to Xbehave: [...]expand one of the empties 1MB sould let ubuntu see it | 15:41 |

| gregory | cyborg_: ubuntu-kernel | 15:44 |
| Xbehave | Skiri-ki: yeah i think i used knoppix | 15:44 |
| aubade | Can someone explain what it means that the kernel is generic? Is it really i386 with some support for 686 instruction sets? | 15:44 |
| erUSUL | cyborg_: afaik there is no public irc channel for kernel dev | 15:44 |
| VSpike | amenado: mounted something into /home/me/Music with sshfs .. wireless dropped out, and exaile hung. Plugged in ethernet cable, started terminal, checked network.. OK. Tried to access Music, terminal hung. Tried to access using Nautilus from panel, panel hung. Alt-F2 not working. Ctrl-alt-bksp works, but session freezes when logging in again | 15:44 |
| erUSUL | !generic | aubade | 15:44 |
| ubotu | aubade: Background to the decision to replace -686, k7 and -smp kernels with -generic can be found here https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-August/019983.html (the -386 kernel is still available if needed) | 15:44 |
| aubade | erUSUL: danke | 15:44 |
| erUSUL | aubade: it optimices itself on runtime | 15:44 |
| amenado | Skiri-ki-> and you are installing? at the point of partitioning, choose manual, instead of using the whole disk..so you can manually pick and choose size of partitions and mount points | 15:45 |
| cyborg_ | gregory: thanks | 15:45 |
| Skiri-ki | so restarting in knopix, resizing some of the partitions so the have different sizes and then again ubuntu live? | 15:45 |
| VSpike | amenado: fixed it by logging in with failsafe terminal and killing sshfs | 15:45 |
| Xbehave | this was a while ago, with a 7.10 install onto a sata drive, but it might work | 15:45 |
| Xbehave | yeah, just be carefull not to touch the xp partition | 15:45 |
| amenado | VPsike you dont expect ssh to pick up do you? the link and route path is now different, ssh detects like man in the middle thing..so it wont continue with the new connections | 15:46 |
| Skiri-ki | amenado: I would like to but my win partition isn't visible and neither are any of the 3 | 15:46 |
| Skiri-ki | kay, I'll try that thankx | 15:46 |
| dee_cz | hi | 15:46 |
| erUSUL | !hi | dee_cz | 15:46 |
| ubotu | dee_cz: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 15:46 |
| amenado | Skiri-ki-> access a terminal in the liveCD applications menu | 15:47 |
| QuickGold | I have an odd issue where I have a 7.10 server that has 2 connections, one to the internal network and one to the "world", yet I can only access the server from the internal IP address....what am I doing wrong? | 15:47 |
| amenado | Skiri-ki-> access a terminal in the liveCD applications --> accesssories -->terminal | 15:47 |
| amenado | QuickGold-> where is your client trying to access this server? lan side or wan side? | 15:47 |
| dee_cz | i know that 8.04 means that its gonna come out in april, anybody knows when? | 15:47 |
| Pici | dee_cz: 24th. | 15:48 |
| sipior | QuickGold: is your modem/router configured to pass the appropriate connections? | 15:48 |
| erUSUL | !schedule > dee_cz | 15:48 |
| but_psycho | h00k: System -> Preferences -> Screen Resolution - there isnt the resolution i need in the list of supported resolutions... although it is in /X11/xorg.conf..... how should i install both a monitor driver and a video card driver? | 15:48 |
| QuickGold | amenado: wan side...via the publically accessible address | 15:48 |
| QuickGold | sipior: as far as we know, yes | 15:48 |
| bullium | dee_cz: ubuntu.com it's right on the homepage | 15:48 |
| amenado | QuickGold-> quick check is ping the external wan (ip address) is it responding? | 15:49 |
| QuickGold | amenado: ping external address from inside? or from outside? | 15:49 |
| amenado | QuickGold-> both to test em..but to start from outside or from the router/gateway it is connected to | 15:49 |
| VSpike | amenado: sorry, didn't see your message... | 15:50 |
| f8922307 | 哈摟 | 15:50 |
| QuickGold | amenado: let me check... | 15:50 |
| f8922307 | 有台灣人嗎？ | 15:50 |
| gregory | f8922307: /join #ubuntu-cn | 15:50 |
| gregory | f8922307: /join #ubuntu-cn | 15:50 |
| FloodBot1 | gregory: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 15:50 |
| VSpike | amenado: no, i don't necessarily expect ssh to recover but I don't expect a mounted fuse fs to hang everything when it has errors | 15:50 |
| amenado | VSpike-> i was just saying, if you cut the link and use a different route, I do not expect ssh to pick up the connection | 15:51 |
| but_psycho | h00k: i've searched in the internet for any driver for linux for my monitor and i didnt find any. although i have the driver fro windows and have a ***.inf file - should add it in system-administration - screens and graphics? | 15:51 |
| f8922307 | /join #ubuntu-cn | 15:51 |
| f8922307 | 哈摟？ | 15:51 |
| VSpike | amenado: nope, agreed but things should not hang either. | 15:51 |
| bazhang | f8922307: /j #ubuntu-tw | 15:52 |
| VSpike | amenado: I was wondering if anyone here could confirm that that is or isn't normal behaviour for sshfs. But now that I think about it, the machine with the problem is on hardy, and I used to use sshfs in the same way on another gutsy machine with very flakey wireless and it never used to hang up. So it may be hardy specific in which case I should probably ask on +1 | 15:52 |
| amenado | VSpike-> think of it this way, if you are trying to access that partition ( maybe an app in your system) and it waits there because the FS is disconnected..it just wait and waits, the i/o is blocking so it can not serve others? | 15:53 |
| f8922307 | ?? | 15:53 |
| QuickGold | amenado: ping not working from inside or outside | 15:53 |
| k[5\5] | z | 15:53 |
| bazhang | f8922307: this is english only for taiwan go to #ubuntu-tw | 15:53 |
| Pici | f8922307:/j #ubuntu-tw | 15:53 |
| amenado | QuickGold-> from same server, ping its own wan side ip address | 15:53 |
| Dr_ale | Hi i'm a total newbie trying to install my Lucent winmodem on Ubuntu 7.10, and according to to wiki, i need linux-restricted-modules-[ARCH]. I could not find it with google, and via some links in the forums. Can someone please post me a link here? | 15:53 |
| QuickGold | amenado: No response | 15:54 |
| k[5\5] | register | 15:54 |
| amenado | VSpike-> and heck you didnt even mention its hardy til now...so yeah please vist #ubuntu+1 | 15:54 |
| erUSUL | Dr_ale: sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-generic | 15:54 |
| erUSUL | Dr_ale: ? | 15:54 |
| Dr_ale | i'll try it tnx | 15:54 |
| VSpike | amenado: Yes but that does not make sense for networks which are less reliable. What about an ftp mount, or a cifs mount over a vpn over the internet? And indeed with the last one, if the link goes down, it copes gracefully. So well designed fuse fs should not do this | 15:54 |
| amenado | QuickGold-> how did you get the ip address of the wan side anyways? | 15:54 |
| QuickGold | amenado: static IP set | 15:55 |
| Acxty | hey guys I am looking for a terminal software that tell me how much MB I consume daily on a network interface eth0 in this case | 15:55 |
| amenado | VSpike-> probly you are right, post it as bug ? | 15:55 |
| === tero is now known as rrg43 | ||
| Dr_ale | erUSUL: Ivalid operation... | 15:55 |
| amenado | QuickGold-> what exactly is your command to set it? and how did you verify that it is really indeed set? | 15:56 |
| Dr_ale | erUSUL: I don | 15:56 |
| QuickGold | amenado: I set the IP in /etc/network/interfaces | 15:56 |
| erUSUL | Dr_ale: ?? | 15:56 |
| VSpike | amenado: will try to confirm on +1 and post if appropriate. Thanks | 15:57 |
| Dr_ale | erUSUL: I don't have it in the packages also, and have no internet connection with that computer | 15:57 |
| amenado | QuickGold-> paste your interfaces file...you did not answer my 2nd question, how did you verify? | 15:57 |
| QuickGold | amenado: Aside from setting the IP here, haven't been able to verify aside from trying to ping or access the site via browser | 15:58 |
| Orbixx | Howdy fellas. Just installed World of Warcraft with Wine, set it to use opengl and correct resolution, however it still fps lags pretty badly. | 15:58 |
| erUSUL | Dr_ale: then you will have todl them from other computer search for it on packages.ubuntu.com the package is linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22-14-generic 8if you use gutsy) | 15:58 |
| Orbixx | Can anyone suggest something? | 15:58 |
| amenado | VSpike also ssh requires a keep alive continous connections, ftp you dont, cifs may also require keep alive (not familiar with that one) | 15:58 |
| QuickGold | amenado: here is my interfaces info: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m7dc47875 | 15:58 |
| Dr_ale | erUSUL: tnx, i'll try it | 15:58 |
| f0x1 | apfpuuuu | 15:58 |
| amenado | QuickGold-> ifconfig would show all your nic | 15:58 |
| f0x1 | hi ubuntu people | 15:58 |
| QuickGold | amenado: ifconfig shows the NIC card having the correct IP | 15:59 |
| amenado | QuickGold-> also add broadcast line on your interfaces file | 15:59 |
| QuickGold | amenado: what should be set for the broadcast line? | 16:00 |
| amenado | QuickGold-> paste the results of your ifconfig; also route -n | 16:00 |
| adaran | how do i disable safe graphics mode? | 16:00 |
| amenado | QuickGold-> something like broadcast x.x.x.255 | 16:00 |
| QuickGold | amenado: results of ifconfig: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m434cd6f8 | 16:01 |
| QuickGold | amenado: results of route -n: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m149ef7cc | 16:01 |
| airer-girl | hi can anyone please give me the link to the livecd download? | 16:01 |
| airer-girl | that has compiz fusion on it? | 16:02 |
| amenado | QuickGold-> what do you consider your wan ip address? | 16:02 |
| QuickGold | amenado: 192.168.1.2....it translates in the firewall to the real WAN address | 16:03 |
| amenado | QuickGold-> from same server you can not ping 192.168.1.2 ? | 16:03 |
| puppetmaster | Hello Everybody, How do I completely remove KDE3 & KDE4 with it's apps ? | 16:03 |
| QuickGold | amenado: correct | 16:03 |
| prdonja | grub messed up my parition table and now i cant boot to windows. http://img238.imageshack.us/img238/4424/screenshot1xp7.png , sda1 became extended and windows partition sda5. is there a way to change this ? | 16:03 |
| amenado | QuickGold-> id reset your server /etc/init.d/network restart | 16:04 |
| amenado | then do the test again | 16:04 |
| Flayer_ | bleh, the link on the wiki to the 'amd64' packages for the global-menu packages links to a page that only seems to have a link for i386 available. | 16:04 |
| QuickGold | amenado: let me try that | 16:04 |
| erUSUL | prdonja: there is no way grub could have "messed up" the partition table afaics | 16:04 |
| adaran | anyone know? | 16:04 |
| adaran | i want to kill, it's annoying as hell =/ | 16:04 |
| amenado | QuickGold-> id reset your server /etc/init.d/networking restart <-- corrected networking | 16:04 |
| adaran | *kill it | 16:04 |
| QuickGold | amenado: yea that sounds better, lol | 16:05 |
| prdonja | erUSUL, thats the only program i used . so it is grub | 16:05 |
| k[5\5] | zz | 16:05 |
| puppetmaster | How do I completely remove KDE3 & KDE4 with it's apps ? | 16:05 |
| amenado | QuickGold-> now exact same info for ifconfig and route -n as pasted earlier? | 16:05 |
| QuickGold | amenado: Standby, trying to SSH back into the box.... | 16:06 |
| erUSUL | prdonja: most likely some error by your part or from the installer during partitioning and installation | 16:06 |
| brother-1nferior | so how does the hype smell today? | 16:06 |
| sonatso | has anybody ever had trouble with ndiswrapper? | 16:06 |
| QuickGold | amenado: ifconfig results: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m7ee016ee | 16:07 |
| QuickGold | amenado: route -n results: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m3e5b2dd8 | 16:07 |
| puppetmaster | Hello Everybody, How do I completely remove KDE3 & KDE4 with it's apps ? | 16:07 |
| BSG75 | anyone remember howto let normal user umount a smbmount'd dir? | 16:07 |
| prdonja | erUSUL, no live-CD , grub > root (hd0,2) setup (hd0). to get back grub. And after that partitions changed . There was no partitioning or installation | 16:08 |
| sipior | puppetmaster: dpkg -l , grepping as necessary to find any kde app you want to vapourise, then apt-get remove <list> | 16:09 |
| amenado | QuickGold-> and test results of pinging is? | 16:09 |
| QuickGold | amenado: nothing back on pings :( | 16:09 |
| QuickGold | amenado: its working now | 16:09 |

| QuickGold | amenado: sorry, I thought firewall was down | 16:10 |
| Xbehave | for anybody who tried to help me earlier, the problem is that azureus likes to execute stuff in /tmp and i didnt allow it | 16:10 |
| puppetmaster | Isn't there away to remove them in one command | 16:10 |
| QuickGold | amenado: when I reloaded /etc/init.d/networking, the firewall came back | 16:10 |
| ph8 | hey all; if i specify a proxy during install, is it possible to remove it from the resulting installation easily? | 16:10 |
| Flayer_ | puppetmaster, for some bad advice, dpkg -l |grep kde |cut -d " " -f 3 |sudo apt-get remove --purge -y is a VERY DANGEROUS command that will probably get rid of kde for you quite rapidly | 16:10 |
| puppetmaster | and my kde apps is too much so i dont remember all of them | 16:11 |
| sipior | puppetmaster: or you can just leave them on. hard drive space is pretty cheap... | 16:11 |
| amenado | QuickGold-> that is normal | 16:11 |
| puppetmaster | that's why I want to remove them in the first place sipior | 16:12 |
| puppetmaster | I love Gnome | 16:12 |
| sonatso | puppetmaster: why do you want/need to get rid of kde? | 16:12 |
| sipior | puppetmaster: well, fire up dpkg -l and get cracking! | 16:12 |
| Flayer_ | puppetmaster, the command i gave you will very likely remove most of kde for you | 16:12 |
| puppetmaster | very low disk space | 16:12 |
| dtrainer | Is there a recommended package for ghosting/imaging? | 16:12 |
| spiderfire | is there a command to list files with their octal permissions? | 16:13 |

| scriptdevil | I have the icedtea plugin installed and openjdk in the background. Java website is able to recognize my java install. But yahoo games is not. What must I do? | 16:18 |
| BSG75 | sonatso: I just need my wife to be able to right click and say unmount volume .. so I am pretty safe at that | 16:18 |
| QuickGold | amenado: Weird problem, eh? Could adding that broadcast line to /etc/network/interfaces help? Or is that just a good practice that shouldn't be causing this problem? | 16:18 |
| amenado | QuickGold-> why again you have a static ip address on the wan side? | 16:18 |
| QuickGold | amenado: We have static IPs on the WAN side to manage all of the outside servers | 16:19 |
| sonatso | BSG75: try going to system and modifying user priveleges to allow that, or make her an administrator | 16:19 |
| amenado | QuickGold-> but that is assigned to your router not to your server itself ? what kind of router is in the wan side of this server? | 16:19 |
| BSG75 | sonatso: she's admin | 16:20 |
| BSG75 | sonatso: the dirs are mounted using a smbmount script .. not via fstab | 16:20 |
| k[5\5] | zz | 16:20 |
| QuickGold | amenado: we have a switch for connections available to the outside world. In that switch is a set of rules to allow port X to be open for server y | 16:20 |
| k[5\5] | zzzz | 16:20 |
| amenado | QuickGold-> you are not answering me straight, your static ip address is assigned to you by your ISP right? | 16:21 |
| sonatso | BSG75: when you right-click, can you umount it? | 16:21 |
| BSG75 | sonatso: no says "child process failed (permission denied) | 16:21 |
| QuickGold | amenado: Sorry...the static IP is assigned by the network admin who controls the switch | 16:22 |
| caveymason | is there any sort of software like logmein for ubuntu? | 16:22 |
| BSG75 | sonatso: I thinks I need to change the umount.cifs | 16:22 |
| sipior | caveymason: that depends. what does logmein do? | 16:22 |
| sonatso | BSG75: sounds like the program wants you to have root privileges | 16:22 |
| BSG75 | sonatso: yeah .. it's the basic umount command | 16:23 |
| amenado | QuickGold-> okay, this static IP assigned by your network admin is the 192.168.1.2 ? | 16:23 |
| QuickGold | amenado: correct | 16:23 |
| sonatso | BSG75: you can check the forums for old threads about this sort of problem, may have happened before | 16:24 |
| amenado | QuickGold-> now did your network admin also mapped or forward your true company external ip address to this 192.168.1.2 ? | 16:24 |

| Ace2016 | has anyone tried merging the ubuntu desktop and alternative disks into one? | 21:09 |

| Jack_Sparrow | Ace2016, there is a dvd yes | 21:10 |
| Ace2016 | so that the alternative install is just another option on the boot menu of a unified disk? | 21:10 |
| Ace2016 | could they not fit both onto one cd? | 21:10 |

| Ace2016 | why can't we just have all the desktops + live/alternative installers? | 21:12 |
| Ace2016 | just leave server as a separate disk, surely the average user is unlikely to install that first | 21:12 |
| happyface | anyone here have a Dell XPS M1530? | 21:12 |

| giza | Hello, I'm having a problem with my swap partition. I was trying to run Counter-Strike in Wine when the game froze my entire computer, and I was forced to manually power down my laptop. Ever since then, large apps like Firefox 3b5 stall my system quite frequently when running them. It shows swap's total in System Monitor but 0 bytes are used, thus swap is still messed up.

| freq_fraq | Hi. I'm new to linux and want to try ubuntu. I've downloaded the live-CD of ubuntu 7.10, but I can't run it - when I restart the computer and choose "start ubuntu", after some time I get an error about "failed to load display 6 times" or something like that. The ISO file I've donwloaded is OK (I've checked the MD5), and I've tried to burn it twice. any ideas? My video card is Intel 82915G. thanks. | 21:33 |

| NW2190 | Lamego: Ya but is there another way? That's kind of annoying to do everytime... | 21:36 |

| MrBill | It didn't really occur to me that it would only be files in the home dir that had the GID i was looking to change | 21:44 |
| MrBill | I'm sorta still wrapping my head around the filestructure of things here, I'm a pretty recent WinXP convert | 21:44 |
| dan_ | hello everyone | 21:44 |
| Notscape | MrBill: for home only is easy, for filesystem spread files --> ls -Rn / |awk '$3 ~ /1001/ {print $0}' | 21:44 |
| dan_ | i have a question regarding video cards and wireless cards. | 21:45 |
| dan_ | if anyone has the time | 21:45 |
| MrBill | this all started when I had to change the UID and GID of some of the users in my family to get two machines coordinated for NFS permissions. | 21:45 |
| nick_ | erUSUL: How do I add a samba shared printer in CUPS? how do I determine the URI? | 21:46 |
| MrBill | I had to take my UID/GID 1001 user and move them to 1003 on my Ubuntu system, but their files didn't change permissions with them. Is it safe to assume that the only place they would own any files is in their /home directory? | 21:46 |
| mark7 | find / -gid 1001 if you want to check | 21:46 |
| mark7 | Probably, yes. Maybe stuff in /tmp for the current boot | 21:46 |
| kaf-laarous | #/j | linuxac | 21:46 |
| dan_ | anyone know why my PCI wireless adapter disappears when i install a new Nvidia GeForce 5500 Graphics card? | 21:47 |
| Notscape | MrBill: if this is a simple user it is highly probable that only have files in its home | 21:47 |
| mark7 | dan_: You try switching the slot that the adaptor is in? | 21:47 |
| Lamego | MrBill, unless they have root privileges or you created a directory with privileges for them, they are not allowed to write of the home dir | 21:47 |
| dan_ | yes | 21:47 |
| dan_ | i've tried all slots | 21:47 |
| kakashi-sempai | dan_ , pci conflict | 21:47 |
| Lamego | out of | 21:47 |
| dan_ | how do i solve that? I'm relatively new to the world of linux | 21:47 |
| FD_F | dan:_ try install the Nvidia with envy | 21:47 |
| dan_ | i did install with envy | 21:48 |
| dan_ | and without envy | 21:48 |
| dan_ | and from website | 21:48 |
| kajo | freq fraq, I can't find anything about it on google. | 21:48 |
| MrBill | Ok perfect, then changing the GID of the files inside home should do the trick. It's a user with no root/sudo access that has been doing very basic things | 21:48 |
| kajo | Bizarre problem to me. Never heard of that. | 21:48 |
| kajo | Have you tried booting in safe mode? | 21:49 |
| dan_ | who, kajo? | 21:49 |
| kajo | freq_fraq | 21:49 |
| dan_ | ahh sorry | 21:49 |
| kajo | Did he leave? I was on google for a while, I might have been too long. | 21:49 |
| Notscape | MrBill: yes | 21:49 |
| freq_fraq | kajo: yes. the exact same thing happened. Is there a "good" forum to write about my problem? | 21:49 |
| dan_ | so kakashi, is it a port problem? like two devices trying to acquire the same port? or am i speaking windows garbage? | 21:50 |
| Quicksilva | how do you unzip a .exe file? (if its possible) | 21:50 |
| Dell-Net | hi | 21:50 |
| kajo | ubuntu forums, and you could always try joining /#linux | 21:50 |
| mark7 | Quicksilva: If it's an executable zip archive, "unzip" will work. | 21:50 |
| kakashi-sempai | dan_ , IMO it sounds like an IRQ conflict in your BIOS, but there could be more. | 21:50 |
| dan_ | oh lordy | 21:51 |
| Quicksilva | mark7, thanks. im trying to follow the guide on how to set up my rt2500 wireless card | 21:51 |
| freq_fraq | kajo: It's getting late here, so I'll quit for today and try some more stuff tommorow. thank you for your efforts | 21:51 |
| dan_ | didnt think to check the bios | 21:51 |
| kajo | kakashi sempai, are you ever on KGS? | 21:51 |
| RoAkSoAx | Quicksilva, which Ubuntu version are you using? | 21:51 |
| kakashi-sempai | kajo, nope | 21:51 |
| Quicksilva | gutsy gibbon 7.10 | 21:51 |
| tijayz | hi | 21:51 |
| mark7 | dan_: Might also run dmesg output, see if the thing is being detected. | 21:51 |
| Dell-Net | I have a strange problem in my ubuntu 8.04 beta, ->when I run screenlet clock it shows the wrong time. ubuntu system time is correct but not screenlet clock why ? | 21:51 |
| tijayz | how would i run rsync daemon? | 21:51 |
| kajo | Thought it was worth asking. I'm 8k there. | 21:52 |
| tijayz | from livecd | 21:52 |
| tijayz | i run rsync --daemon | 21:52 |
| mark7 | dan_: I mean, run dmesg, and look at the output :-) | 21:52 |
| tijayz | and it just goes back to console | 21:52 |
| Quicksilva | RoAkSoAx, gutsy gibbon, woops :P | 21:52 |
| kajo | brb | 21:52 |
| nick_ | How do I determine the URI of a samba shared printer? I'm trying to add it to CUPS via the web interface. | 21:52 |
| fsgaston | Does anybody know of a good internet file storage server I could setup | 21:52 |
| fedy | problem with my hp 3600 printer. doesnot anything. please help. | 21:52 |
| mark7 | Dell-Net: Set to use an unusual time zone? | 21:52 |
| mark7 | Dell-Net: Is it an even number of hours off? | 21:52 |
| RoAkSoAx | Quicksilva, and wen you installed gutsy... network manager didn recognize it automatically? | 21:52 |
| dan_ | ok, so, you think it's eventually possible to get both woring in tandem? i returned the graphic card this morning, but i can always go pick it up again if need be. | 21:52 |
| mark7 | Dell-Net: I mean, a whole number of hours? | 21:52 |
| Dell-Net | yes it is mark | 21:52 |
| Dell-Net | 3 hours late are the cairo clock | 21:53 |
| mark7 | Dell-Net: And "date" shows the correct time? | 21:53 |
| Quicksilva | RoAkSoAx, My wireless works... but I have disconnects randomly all the time | 21:53 |
| kakashi-sempai | nick_ , it should be smb:\\hostname\Printer | 21:53 |
| Dell-Net | yes | 21:53 |
| Quicksilva | RoAkSoAx, i end up having to reconnect all the time to keep my net up | 21:54 |
| dan_ | cool thanks guys :) | 21:54 |
| mark7 | Dell-Net: Okay...I don't use GNOME, unfortunately, so I'm not really familiar with the GNOME clock (which I assume is what you're referring to) but I'd imagine that it lets you set a different timezone on a clock. | 21:54 |
| mark7 | Dell-Net: Might try right-clicking on the clock and looking at the settings there, see if the timezone is in there. | 21:54 |
| RoAkSoAx | Quicksilva, i believe there are some bugs related to the rt25x0 driver... i think the only way to get them work right is to change to hardy ! | 21:54 |
| Quicksilva | RoAkSoAx, oh cool they are fixed in hardy now?? | 21:54 |
| Dell-Net | mark7 yeap the gnome clock is correct and date and zone its the screenlet cairo clockthat is 3hours late | 21:55 |
| t1n0m3n | I am trying to remove a specific file from several directories. I have tried rm -r filename.txt but it says "rm: cannot remove `filename.txt': No such file or directory" The file is no in the immediate directory, but is several layers deep. Is there a better way to do it? | 21:55 |
| Quicksilva | RoAkSoAx, ok well if it works in hardy then i will wait. I want to do a complete reformatting :) | 21:55 |
| xfroggy | question, I have a keyboard shortcut for the calculator, is there a way to change it so it launches something other than gcalctool? | 21:55 |
| wydd | Hi. My Toshiba's Hotkeys (fn) don't work. How can I turn on/off CRT video out? Is it via proc or smth like that? | 21:55 |
| RoAkSoAx | Quicksilva, yes... i have and rt25x0 (dont remember the exact model) but i could get it to work in Gutsy but it works just fine in hardy!! | 21:56 |
| kakashi-sempai | t1n0m3n , you cannot remove a file recursively, point to the directory first and try again | 21:56 |
| tim1 | dose spam assassin work i seem to be getting more spam then usual ? | 21:56 |
| mark7 | Dell-Net: Oh...I gotcha. Sorry, haven't used it before. Best I can suggest is looking for a timezone related setting for the thing :-) | 21:56 |
| TWP-SirStaal | How do I get ubunutu to recognise Japanese? (kanji, katakana, kana) | 21:56 |
| rkvirani | \q | 21:56 |
| Quicksilva | RoAkSoAx, thats great!!! i will have to upgrade soon then.. just wondering if its probably best to wait for final release :P | 21:57 |
| Dell-Net | mark7 ok thanks, I tried to search for a solution on google and find several but non worked for me | 21:57 |
| t1n0m3n | kakashi: hmmm, that wont work.... it is a file in every directory that I don't need | 21:57 |
| kakashi-sempai | t1n0m3n , do a wildcard only with -r | 21:57 |
| mark7 | TWP-SirStaal: Haven't done so myself, but have you looked at http://www.mrbass.org/linux/ubuntu/scim/ ? | 21:57 |
| MrBill | Thank you to all those who helped me with my permissions and ownership situation there, I think I have things properly running now. Appreciate the fantastic community support that is present here. | 21:57 |
| TWP-SirStaal | Nope I am not so good at Linux yet to know what to do | 21:58 |
| RoAkSoAx | Quicksilva, well maybe it is... but since there is only 6 days from now to the final release... that wouldn't make the difference if you install the latest RC | 21:58 |
| wydd | How do I switch on/off the CRT-out of my notebook wihtout (not workint) hotkeys? Proc? | 21:58 |
| linkmaster03 | why can I not see the Options button in Firefox? | 21:58 |
| andi5 | TWP-SirStaal: iirc, ubuntu hardy will tight scim closer to the desktop, so it may become easier, but i am not sure | 21:58 |
| === eric is now known as tinkerghost | ||
| Dell-Net | what happends when u have beta and when they release new ubuntu do i need to reinstall it then ? | 21:59 |
| Quicksilva | RoAkSoAx, ok cool thanks for your help buddy. I'll look into upgrading then :D | 21:59 |
| t1n0m3n | kakashi-sempai: hmm, I guess I am not explaining it correctly. I have a bunch of files named filename.txt in a bunch of locations in a specific directory tree. There are other files in the tree that I want to keep | 21:59 |
| RoAkSoAx | Quicksilva, you're welcom :) | 21:59 |
| kindofabuzz | linkmaster03, edit > preferances | 21:59 |
| andi5 | TWP-SirStaal: you may want to run scim-setup (alt-f2) | 21:59 |
| TWP-SirStaal | That link was to an in-punt guide not for it to recognise the language | 21:59 |
| linkmaster03 | oh lord | 22:00 |
| linkmaster03 | thanks | 22:00 |
| mark7 | wydd: IIRC, xrandr, but let me check my laptop | 22:00 |
| t1n0m3n | Normally in windows I would do a file name search on the begginning of the tree and select all of the files and then delete | 22:00 |
| MrBill | On that note.... I do have some other (totally unrelated) questions..... I've got a CD player in my car that can play discs full of MP3s. When burning from Windows with Nero everything plays fine in the car, under Ubuntu I've isntalled gnomebaker, but for some reason my car stereo isn't recognizing the discs. I don't know if the session is being left open on them, or if the naming standard is different or what might be happening. Does anyone here | 22:00 |
| MrBill | have any experience with this, or advice to offer? (i'm all for installing some other burning software if gnomebaker is maybe not my best option) | 22:00 |
| Dell-Net | if ubuntu 8.04 beta is installed do I need to reinstall the stable ubuntu 8.04 when it releases? or just I upgrade ? | 22:01 |
| mark7 | t1n0m3n: find -type f -name <yourname> | 22:01 |
| RoAkSoAx | Dell-Net, just upgrade | 22:01 |
| wydd | mark7, ok | 22:01 |
| mark7 | t1n0m3n: That'll give you a list | 22:01 |
| kakashi-sempai | t1n0m3n , I don't know the answer, do a manpage | 22:01 |
| Dell-Net | o k thanks | 22:01 |
| AgreSor | Dell-Net, but i recommend you Clean install of stable distro. | 22:01 |
| mark7 | wydd: Oh, nuts...I forgot that I reformatted the thing. | 22:01 |

| andi5 | MrBill: have you tried brasero? (i think it can do that) | 22:02 |
| prince_jammys | t1n0m3n: go to the parent name and do: find . -name 'filename.txt' -exec echo rm {} \; (if you like what you see, remove the echo and they will be deleted) | 22:02 |
| t1n0m3n | prince_jammys: cool that was exactly what I was looking for | 22:03 |
| mark7 | wydd: ran into this:http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2007/10/25/dual-monitor-setup-help-1280x800-1440x900/ -- looks like xrandr --output VGA --auto and xrandr --output VGA --left-of-LVDS is recommended | 22:04 |
| arash | Hi, I have a swap partition, and I can easily turn it 'swapon' to the activated swap partition, but efter every session reboot, it doesnt use the swap partition as swap | 22:04 |
| mark7 | wydd: It should be something along those lines. There's probably some GUI way too, but you'll have to find someone else to advise WRT that :-) | 22:04 |
| MrBill | andi5: I haven't tried it yet... I'll give it a go | 22:04 |
| tinkerghost | arash: are you running linux or BSD? | 22:04 |
| arash | tinkerghost: Ubuntu 7.10 :) | 22:05 |
| fsgaston | Has anybody used Owl for document storage and what did you think of it? | 22:05 |
| mark7 | arash: Look in /etc/fstab, and find the line with the swap | 22:05 |
| mark7 | arash: Remove any "noauto" tag | 22:05 |
| wydd | mark7, thanks a lot! going there right now | 22:05 |

| TheMusicGuy | is it possible to record sound output to a file? | 22:06 |
| mark7 | TheMusicGuy: Yes | 22:06 |
| mark7 | TheMusicGuy: For a quick-and-dirty, cat /dev/dsp >file | 22:06 |
| arash | tinkerghost: Yea, something similiar, sec let me pastebin | 22:06 |
| tinkerghost | arash: you might see /dev/hda2 replaced w/ UUID=[lots of junk] | 22:06 |
| mark7 | TheMusicGuy: There are also plenty of programs to record audio -- Audacity is a GUI program, sox a command-line one. | 22:07 |
| arash | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/63678/ , just took swap part. | 22:07 |
| TheMusicGuy | can that record all the stuff that is going to /dev/dsp | 22:07 |
| TheMusicGuy | like, anything that is coming across the speakers | 22:07 |
| mark7 | TheMusicGuy: Oh, not input...I see what you mean | 22:07 |
| mark7 | TheMusicGuy: Try this -- | 22:08 |
| arash | My swap lokos normal in fstab, right, at least there is no noauto | 22:08 |
| mark7 | TheMusicGuy: If you're recording, run alsamixer | 22:08 |
| mark7 | Hit "tab" to go to the list of "capture" volumes | 22:08 |
| Dell-Net | question.... if u use pidgin internet messenger to chat with IRC can I remove the "left the room", "entered the room" auto messages ? | 22:08 |
| mark7 | TheMusicGuy: Try going through those and turning them up. | 22:08 |
| abbe | TheMusicGuy: arecord | 22:09 |
| mark7 | TheMusicGuy: One of them may be how much of the input should come from the output | 22:09 |

| progek | Hi room, can someone please help. I installed xubuntu and wicd for connecting to access points with my wireless card. The card was installed find, and it is working. The only problem is, I cannot connect to my network (WPA pass phrase). I can connect to non-secured networks though. If I try to connect to mine, it hangs on "obtaining IP address" | 22:10 |

| Jordan_U | Sake, sudo fdisk -l | 22:11 |

| andi5 | progek: but your access point is running a dhcp daemon, right? | 22:12 |
| abbe | mark7: okay, how about directing speaker to mic | 22:12 |
| Lamego | Sake, or lshw | 22:12 |
| progek | andi5 yes, and I would also like to add that my laptop can connect fine through wireless. | 22:12 |
| mark7 | abbe: Nah | 22:12 |
| abbe | I think there is some plugin which does this in software | 22:12 |
| mark7 | abbe: Because that would take what's already coming in from the mic | 22:12 |

| mark7 | arash: Oh, forgot that I'm on my Fedora box right now <facepalm> | 22:17 |
| tinkerghost | arash: there are a few places in init.d/ that are supposed to kick off the swapon. I'm looking through them now | 22:17 |

| arash | tinkerghost: wooow. thanks :) | 22:17 |
| TheMusicGuy | abbe: ok...which one? | 22:17 |
| tinkerghost | arash: mountall.sh & checkroot.sh both are supposed to trigger swapon | 22:17 |

| TheMusicGuy | crimsun: I have no idea :) | 22:19 |
| abbe | TheMusicGuy: try File plugin | 22:19 |
| crimsun | TheMusicGuy: then you're using ALSA, and you should use the file plugin. | 22:19 |

| crimsun | it's much easier, however, with PulseAudio. | 22:20 |
| Wantoch | hi! | 22:20 |
| progek | lastk you can try vlc | 22:20 |
| tinkerghost | arash: do 'cat /etc/init.d/mountall.sh | less' and check if there is a section that sets swapon | 22:20 |
| mark7 | TheMusicGuy: If this uses the OSS interface, http://debaday.livejournal.com/36958.html says that vsound should work | 22:20 |
| lastk | progek : thanks | 22:20 |
| Jordan_U | tinkerghost, Why not just do "less /etc/init.d/mountall.sh" ? | 22:21 |
| andi5 | so i assume a default hardy desktop would run a pulseaudio daemon? my upgraded system (egdy->...-->hardy) does not do, so i assume it is time to completely reinstall it? (no need to redirect me, it is my only q) | 22:21 |
| mark7 | TheMusicGuy: If the program says anything like "/dev/dsp" in its audio preferences, that's what it's using. | 22:21 |
| tinkerghost | Jordan, sure, make it all simple like | 22:21 |

| Speedy | Orbixx, you could image the disk | 22:54 |
| Dephenom | Johninky, how would i go about finding the correct driver? | 22:54 |
| Orbixx | Speedy: That's what I'm thinking. Know any good software? | 22:55 |
| TheMusicGuy | ok, now I have another problem...Audacity won't play anymore. It keeps complaining about the device settings, which are the same as they've always been | 22:55 |
| andi6 | user1_: did it work for you before? did you change something? | 22:55 |
| Dephenom | i assume i would have to use NDISWrapper | 22:55 |
| TheMusicGuy | Using output device OSS: /dev/dsp | 22:55 |
| Speedy | Orbixx, ghost | 22:55 |
| Orbixx | Ugh, Norton... | 22:55 |
| alteregoa | wmp with wine... | 22:55 |
| alteregoa | lol | 22:55 |
| TheMusicGuy | Selecting an ALSA device makes it hang | 22:55 |
| Speedy | ghost for linux... | 22:56 |
| Johninky | well, I am not linux geek but I am going to try to help, Look and see what type of card you have, do you have a desktop or laptop | 22:56 |
| user1_ | andi6 yes. it was working before, i used 7.10 , i went to hardy. still working. then i just restarted kdm. it stoped working | 22:56 |
| andi6 | TheMusicGuy: i think /dev/dsp allows only one program to access it, so maybe it is blocked by something else? | 22:56 |
| andi6 | user1_: how did you restart kdm? | 22:56 |
| TheMusicGuy | I thought so too, but nothing is using it, as far as I know | 22:56 |
| Speedy | Orbixx, may bad | 22:56 |
| andi6 | TheMusicGuy: have you checked lsof? | 22:56 |
| user1_ | andi6 dont remember. the /etc kdm restart comand i think | 22:56 |
| Speedy | i meant to say, try this http://freeghost.no-ip.org/index.php | 22:56 |
| linkmaster03 | how do I run the .bin installer for JRE? | 22:56 |
| Dephenom | Johninky, its a Sony Viao laptop | 22:56 |
| Speedy | free imaging for linux | 22:56 |
| andi6 | user1_: while you were still logged in? | 22:56 |
| apocx | i need help... | 22:56 |
| TheMusicGuy | what does lsof do | 22:56 |
| user1_ | andi6 i think yes. or maybe i was loged in as root | 22:57 |
| Starnestommy | TheMusicGuy: it lists open file descriptors | 22:57 |
| apocx | can i request more for new version Ubuntu? | 22:57 |
| andi6 | TheMusicGuy: `man lsof` :-) : list open files | 22:57 |
| Speedy | Orbixx, http://freeghost.no-ip.org/index.php < that software is supposed to enable you to make an image /clone of your hdd | 22:57 |
| user1_ | andi6 i think yes. or maybe i was loged in as root (when i loged in as by runing sudo startx) | 22:57 |
| cosminb82 | anyone knows what libs are there for opengl under mono? | 22:57 |
| rpedro_ | one question: what will I miss if run a -server kernel on a desktop use machine? | 22:57 |
| Johninky | can you find out which wireless card they have in your laptop | 22:57 |
| rpedro_ | not much? | 22:57 |
| linkmaster03 | how do I run the .bin installer for JRE? | 22:57 |
| raistlinmaje7 | linkmaster03, you don't need to | 22:58 |
| andi6 | user1_: any interesting in ~/.xsession-errors? | 22:58 |
| pukeko | Speedy: does the "ghost" work ? | 22:58 |
| unop_ | linkmaster03, just run the installer. sudo /path/to/installer.bin | 22:58 |
| TheMusicGuy | lsof | grep /dev/dsp doesn't return anything | 22:58 |
| raistlinmaje7 | there's a package for it | 22:58 |
| andi6 | user1_: anything, i mean | 22:58 |
| shadeofgrey | Hi all | 22:58 |
| steve__ | has anyone ever setup a linux mail server? | 22:58 |
| === andi6 is now known as andi5 | ||
| Piffer | linkmaster03: if it's not executable, just make it executable and run it | 22:58 |
| user1_ | andi6 when i upgraded to hardy, kdm was not auto started. i was geting in consol only. from there i typed startx each time. (this is the reason i though i should restart kdm.) | 22:58 |
| Dephenom | Johninky, from lshw -C network i get "product: PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection" | 22:58 |
| Speedy | pukeko, if you're refering to the software i just posted a link too, i have no idea. it was a link i took from my local LUG mailing list | 22:58 |
| user1_ | andi5 no | 22:58 |
| unop_ | !hardy | user1_ | 22:58 |
| unop_ | hmm, bot dead? | 22:59 |
| unop_ | user1_, please take your issue to #ubuntu+1 | 22:59 |
| Johninky | but once you find out which card it is you can down load the .inf file and use ndiswrapper | 22:59 |
| andi5 | !life > ubotu | 22:59 |
| Crshman | hi all, for some reason ubuntu keeps turning off my screen even though i have that function disabled | 22:59 |
| user1_ | andi5 ? | 22:59 |
| Crshman | i'm trying to watch movies on it and the screen turns off after a few minutes, it's annoying =( | 22:59 |
| andi5 | user1_: yes? | 22:59 |
| raistlinmaje7 | linkmaster03: you can also try "sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre sun-java6-bin" | 22:59 |
| user1_ | andi5 what now | 22:59 |
| raistlinmaje7 | Crshman: try using the sleep inhibitor applet | 23:00 |
| andi5 | user1_: did you reboot once? | 23:00 |
| arash | Crshman , I dunno if you see this as a solution, but maybe if you used totem or other good integrated media player, it would disable that function | 23:00 |
| user1_ | andi5 yes | 23:00 |
| apocx | can i request more for new version Ubuntu? | 23:00 |
| PriceChild | !test | 23:00 |
| user1_ | andi5 yes manytimes | 23:00 |
| andi5 | user1_: anything kde-alike running? (ps faux | grep kde) | 23:00 |
| Speedy | pukeko, Orbixx > http://www.partimage.org/Main_Page just been told it works | 23:00 |
| sonmax | hi | 23:01 |
| Crshman | raistlinmaje7: where is that applet? do i have to download it or is it already included in gnome? | 23:01 |
| Orbixx | Speedy: Thanks a lot :D | 23:01 |
| andi5 | user1_: i suppose not... but i really (dislike^W) do not know kde | 23:01 |
| Crshman | arash: i prefer to use VNC =( | 23:01 |
| raistlinmaje7 | or, if that doesn't work, open up your preferences, go to Power Management and change the values to never | 23:01 |
| user1_ | andi5 dont know. i have to close irc to go to console | 23:01 |
| Speedy | no worries Orbixx | 23:01 |
| raistlinmaje7 | Crshman: it should be already included with gnome I think | 23:01 |
| pukeko | Speedy: ta just looking at that first linknow.. | 23:01 |
| sonmax | i have a problem when i log in into gnome the resolution is to high for my monitor and it looks so bad i cant reset it with the gnome gui how can i reset it by hand to 800x600 or so on the console | 23:01 |
| Crshman | raistlinmaje7: i found it....hopefully that works | 23:01 |
| Speedy | pukeko, the second link is way better | 23:01 |
| arash | Crshman: yea soz :p , Dunno, can't help you, good luck fixing it anyways | 23:02 |
| raistlinmaje7 | Crshman: do you have a screensaver that's not just a blank screen? | 23:02 |
| Crshman | raistlinmaje7: i do, but i set it to not turn on unless i lock the machine | 23:02 |
| Henri1 | Hi i'm trying to find out whether im allowed to redistribute Ubuntu with all the free programs that I (and the others) use al the time. Im a student at a university and want to help the other students by creating a LiveDVD using Remastersys (http://www.remastersys.klikit.org/). I will not change anything other than adding free software like KompoZer (webedition) Octave (MATLAB like) and other software of this kind. Please help, I cant find out exactly if im | 23:02 |
| Speedy | Henri1, yes | 23:02 |
| Fujisan | aß?a?a? | 23:03 |
| Starnestommy | Henri1: it's allowed | 23:03 |
| andi5 | Henri1: why not set up an additional repository? | 23:03 |
| sonmax | i have a problem when i log in into gnome the resolution is to high for my monitor and it looks so bad i cant reset it with the gnome gui how can i reset it by hand to 800x600 or so on the console | 23:03 |
| Fujisan | Tertullian | 23:03 |
| Monobi | Henri1, http://www.linux-live.org/ | 23:03 |
| raistlinmaje7 | well, if sleep applet doesn't work, then you go to System>Preferences>Power Management and set the display slider to 0 | 23:03 |
| raistlinmaje7 | *set the slider to never | 23:03 |
| TheMusicGuy | none of the audop devices listed by Audacity will work | 23:03 |
| andi5 | Henri1: oh, livedvd, sorry | 23:03 |
| evilbug | WINE ISSUE: i went to Applications>Wine>Uninstall Wine software and clicked on "uninstall steam" and it showed me how it's deleting the content,but steam still shows up as installed indifferent of how many times i "uninstall" it. | 23:03 |
| TheMusicGuy | *audio devices | 23:03 |
| evilbug | i've tried googling but i haven't found any fix :( | 23:04 |
| raistlinmaje7 | TheMusicGuy: do you have ESD enabled? | 23:04 |
| andi5 | TheMusicGuy: did you run "sudo lsof /dev/dsp"? | 23:04 |
| Henri1 | Ok Speedy and Starnestommy, thx. | 23:05 |
| TheMusicGuy | andi5: returns nothing | 23:05 |
| TheMusicGuy | raistlinmaje7: what is esd? how do I check if its running? | 23:05 |
| raistlinmaje7 | Doesn't ESD cause problems for Audacity? | 23:05 |
| andi5 | TheMusicGuy: ps faux | grep esd | 23:06 |
| Crshman | raistlinmaje7: i have it set to never already | 23:06 |
| TheMusicGuy | andi5: it just lists man esd-config and grep esd | 23:07 |
| TheMusicGuy | the thing is, Audacity used to work just fine | 23:07 |
| raistlinmaje7 | linkmaster03: I can't PM, my nick isn't registered | 23:07 |
| TheMusicGuy | now it suddenly stopped | 23:07 |
| iVal | just a noob question | 23:07 |
| andi5 | TheMusicGuy: why are you running esd-config? | 23:07 |
| iVal | when I have a user nama appearing in yellow | 23:08 |
| raistlinmaje7 | search for JRE in synaptic, and install it | 23:08 |
| TheMusicGuy | because it was the only thing related to esd on my system and I was trying to figure out what it was and how it worked | 23:08 |
| iVal | is this user sending me a message with "notice" ? | 23:08 |
| Starnestommy | iVal: like this? | 23:08 |
| iVal | yes | 23:08 |
| andi5 | TheMusicGuy: that is a developer tool (used if you want to program using libesd) | 23:08 |
| Starnestommy | iVal: it's called a 'highlight' or 'namedrop' | 23:08 |
| raistlinmaje7 | make sure you have the other software sources enabled | 23:08 |
| jacekowski | iVal: it is just automatic highlight | 23:08 |
| iVal | how does it work ? | 23:09 |
| Starnestommy | iVal: say the target's nickname at the start of a line | 23:09 |
| iVal | which command do you use ? | 23:09 |
| jacekowski | iVal: when somebody write to you then he put your nick at begining | 23:09 |
| jacekowski | iVal: mostly using tab autocompletion | 23:09 |
| iVal | jacekowski like this ? | 23:09 |
| iVal | no | 23:09 |
| jacekowski | yes | 23:09 |
| TheMusicGuy | also, while audacity is running, all other sound output is garbled | 23:09 |
| andi5 | TheMusicGuy: you said that audacity makes problems? have you tried to start it from the terminal, to see some error/warning output? | 23:09 |
| Johninky | I have a slight problem here i have seem to have lock my self in my car, I know I layed the keys on top and then got in. after I got in the car went click andthe doors lock, anyone, anyone please help | 23:09 |
| jacekowski | but try to use autocompletion | 23:09 |
| jacekowski | type jace<tab> | 23:10 |
| jacekowski | iVal: type jace<tab> | 23:10 |
| pukeko | Speedy:the FOG seems pretty sophisticated - example : server can be broken down and run across multiple machines. For example, your NFS, apache, PXE, and DHCP services can all run on different servers to maximize performance | 23:10 |
| iVal | jacekowski: like this | 23:10 |
| raistlinmaje7 | Johninky: I think you have the wrong channel | 23:10 |
| iVal | ? | 23:10 |
| Starnestommy | iVal: yes | 23:10 |
| jacekowski | iVal: you can try with less letters but on big channels this may give you to much possibilities | 23:10 |
| jacekowski | iVal: yes | 23:10 |
| jacekowski | iVal: when you have few similar nicks just press tab again and again | 23:10 |
| brfitzp | how do i extract a rar file on ubuntu? | 23:10 |
| shadeofgrey | anybody here run leopard and ubuntu 8 through bootcamp? | 23:10 |
| TheMusicGuy | **** alsa_pcm: xrun of at least X.XXX msecs | 23:11 |
| jacekowski | brfitzp: rar x rar.file.rar | 23:11 |
| TheMusicGuy | over and over | 23:11 |
| Orbixx | brfitzp: sudo apt-get install rar unrar | 23:11 |
| Speedy | pukeko, yeah it does look pretty nice | 23:11 |
| raistlinmaje7 | brfitzp: what verions are you using? | 23:11 |
| iVal | it's just that I'm a relitiv new user of both Ubuntu and XChat | 23:11 |
| kakashi-sempai | sudo apt-get install rar | 23:11 |
| Johninky | is there a #unlock_car_for_idiot | 23:11 |
| brfitzp | 8.04 | 23:11 |
| andi5 | brfitzp: unrar | 23:11 |
| raistlinmaje7 | because the archive-manager should support it | 23:11 |
| muszek_ | brfitzp: what Orbixx said... and then you'll have a right-click context menu in Nautilus | 23:11 |
| iVal | I joined a channel in my native language (french) | 23:11 |
| Speedy | pukeko, for just imaging a disk though, i'd go with the other software I linked too. Unless of course FOG tickles your creative fantasies | 23:11 |
| iVal | and nobody was able to answer me | 23:11 |
| TheMusicGuy | also, Expression 'tempDevHandle = open( deviceInfo->name, flags )' failed in 'src/hostapi/oss/pa_unix_oss.c', line: 690 | 23:11 |

| Orbixx | shadeofgrey: I believe so. | 23:13 |
| andi5 | Orbixx: he is tired of repeating the same things all the time.. | 23:13 |
| raistlinmaje7 | there's a package with their drivers | 23:13 |
| nalioth | ubot3: ask | 23:13 |
| shadeofgrey | raistlinmaje7, were you refering to me? | 23:13 |

| Alex6691 | Well it plays on rhythmbox lol | 23:19 |
| andi5 | i suppose amarok does not use the gstreamer framework, right? | 23:19 |
| raistlinmaje7 | huh, does Amarok use gstreamer? | 23:19 |
| cvd-pr | easy way to share files between ubuntu and windows xp ? | 23:19 |

| george_ | I was wondering if someone could help me get my widescreen setup. I am using the nvidia-glx-new drivers, and configured the TV through nvidia-settings to run on a seperate display, but the resolution gets set to 1024x768, which is terrible on a widescreen... I tried adding 1280x768 to the metamodes line in the xorg.conf line, but the available resolutions still dont include anything over 1024x768... any ideas (I can post my xorg.conf | 23:21 |
| george_ | file if needed) | 23:21 |
| andi5 | Orbixx: does the bot work again now? | 23:21 |
| Zoem | any exaile experts here? | 23:22 |
| zcode1 | How do you disable autologout when idle for a while? | 23:22 |
| Orbixx | george_: My resolution was set correctly when I used the frontend screen controlling app. | 23:22 |
| arash | george_ I know the solution i think :p, but that keyword is illegal around here ^^ | 23:22 |
| Pelo | george_, you need to add the extra res through nvidia-settings or nvidia-config I beleve, not through xorg | 23:22 |
| Orbixx | george_: On the Gnome top panel... Click System -> Preferences -> Screen Resolution | 23:22 |
| Speedy | george_, you need some complex modeline in your xorg.conf... not my area really, google your hardware and some relevent strings, someome will have the modeilne you need on their blog or something | 23:22 |
| Orbixx | And fiddle in there. | 23:22 |
| PriceChild | !test > PriceChild | 23:22 |
| george_ | Orbixx, the resolutions in System | Preferences | Screen Resolution dont include any widescreen resolutions | 23:23 |
| * Pelo gives PriceChild a half mark for doing it in private | 23:23 | |
| Speedy | george_, you need some complex modeline in your xorg.conf... not my area really, google your hardware and some relevent strings, someome will have the modeilne you need on their blog or something | 23:23 |
| Orbixx | george_: They do. | 23:23 |
| Orbixx | george_: Oh, sorry. Wrong one. Hang on, let me find what I was really talking about. | 23:23 |
| george_ | Orbixx, not here... im sure its a configuration problem, which is why im here | 23:23 |
| aanderse | my apple 30 inch monitor won't work, can someone help me? | 23:23 |
| Orbixx | george_: System -> Administration -> Screens and Graphics | 23:24 |
| Pelo | aanderse, second monitor ? | 23:24 |
| Orbixx | george_: Double click on Screen 1. | 23:24 |
| Pelo | !dualhead > aanderse check for a private message windows with instructions from ubotu | 23:24 |
| aanderse | Pelo: no, i'm just using 1 monitor | 23:24 |
| Orbixx | george_: Sorry, double click on the monitor in the drop down list, rather. | 23:24 |
| Orbixx | george_: And check the "Widescreen monitor" box. | 23:25 |
| aanderse | Pelo: also, it "works" but at a really low resolution, i can't get the nvidia card work (so i can get the full resolution) | 23:25 |
| george_ | Orbixx, alright... im gonna relog and give it a shot... brb | 23:25 |
| Pelo | aanderse, ok , aanderse ok open /ect/X11/xorg.conf scroll down to DEVICE monitor ( I think ) and make sure the vertrez and horizsync values match your monitors's value ,and then scroll down further and add the extra resolutons you need,,, save , restart X | 23:26 |
| raistlinmaje7 | oh, I might as well ask my question now, if I wanna try out KDE for a few days, and install it, will my Gnome settings still be there if I move back to Gnome? | 23:26 |
| aanderse | Pelo: i followed the gentoo guide for my monitor (http://gentoo-wiki.com/HARDWARE_Apple_30%22_Cinema_Display) | 23:26 |
| andi5 | raistlinmaje7: yep, they will | 23:26 |
| Pelo | raistlinmaje7, yes they will | 23:26 |
| raistlinmaje7 | peachy | 23:27 |
| Pelo | aanderse, you're not in gentoo | 23:27 |
| progek | I can't figure this out. For some reason my computer will not connect to my router. I'm using xubuntu and WICD. It just hangs on "obtaining IP address". dmesg just shows that the link is not ready. My card is fine though, because I can connect to other networks with it. | 23:27 |
| andi5 | progek: did you look at the output of `dmesg`? | 23:27 |
| aanderse | Pelo: yeah but all the xorg.conf settings should be pretty much (if not exactly) the same | 23:27 |
| julle | what is the name of the package that includes neccessary archive tools? | 23:28 |
| Pelo | aanderse, depends on wherter they use xserver or xfree... | 23:28 |
| raistlinmaje7 | necessary meaning what? | 23:28 |
| LMJ | hi | 23:28 |

| julle | raistlinmaje7: well for tar then ? | 23:29 |
| raistlinmaje7 | to use rars, "sudo apt-get install rar unrar" | 23:29 |
| raistlinmaje7 | tar is supported as well | 23:29 |
| underscore | oy, I just switched to ubuntu and when I read xkcd in firefox, the subtext is truncated to one line, sometimes cutting off the edge of the subtext. How do I fix this? | 23:29 |
| Pelo | julle, fileroler is the archive manager it contains basic , you might want to add unrar , 7zip as well | 23:29 |
| raistlinmaje7 | underscore: there's a firefox plugin for that | 23:29 |
| julle | raistlinmaje7: rar unrar was the package i was looking for :) thx | 23:29 |
| raistlinmaje7 | check xkcd's FAQ page | 23:29 |

| Orbixx | ssh would be a good place to start | 23:33 |
| andi5 | BluePhire1024: definitely not! | 23:33 |
| koolrans | Hi, I had a question regarding LD_LIBRARY_PATH | 23:33 |
| Fishscene | BluePhire1024, I have a little bit | 23:33 |
| andi5 | Fishscene: 8.10? | 23:33 |
| raistlinmaje7 | The_Kernel: that sounds like an init problem | 23:33 |
| Fishscene | err... whatever the 8.x beta is at right now | 23:33 |
| raistlinmaje7 | 8.04 then | 23:34 |
| The_Kernel | raistlinmaje7 let me show you what it does. | 23:34 |
| Fishscene | ah ok | 23:34 |
| andi5 | phew | 23:34 |
| TheMusicGuy | Ok, so I can only use a couple of the ALSA devices listed in Audacity, but none of them produce any sound. | 23:34 |
| BluePhire1024 | Fishscence: how is it on the 928 intel chip set? well if you tried it on the chipset? | 23:34 |
| powertool08 | Orbixx: i don't see any ssh logs | 23:34 |
| andi5 | TheMusicGuy: are they muted? (check out alsamixer) | 23:34 |
| raistlinmaje7 | TheMusicGuy: unmute your sound ;) | 23:34 |
| TheMusicGuy | no | 23:34 |
| koolrans | I am developing an application which is using multiple shared libraries. All the libraries are in /usr/local/lib. All the libraries expecpt one are found correctly | 23:34 |
| TheMusicGuy | they're not muted | 23:34 |
| koolrans | If I set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable, the missing one is also found | 23:35 |
| Fishscene | BluePhire1024, I have no idea. I only tested it a short while for it's "Windows Domain-Joining" "feature" | 23:35 |
| koolrans | Can anyone tell me the reason for this | 23:35 |
| BluePhire1024 | Fishscence: nice. I hope it works well. Stable at least. | 23:35 |
| onca | what package provides fsck? I need the fsck.ntfs or fsck.ntfs-3g | 23:35 |
| andi5 | koolrans: where is that library resided? | 23:35 |
| raistlinmaje7 | fsck comes automatically | 23:36 |
| amenado | koolrans-> what did you add to LD_LIBRARY_PATH ? | 23:36 |
| Fishscene | BluePhire1024, it was quite unrefined when I did my initial testing about a month ago. | 23:36 |
| onca | but I don't seem to have hte ntfs version | 23:36 |
| Fishscene | They have since improved it a lot | 23:36 |

| koolrans | /usr/local/lib | 23:37 |
| koolrans | and it works fine | 23:37 |
| andi5 | TheMusicGuy: are there additional audacity volume controls? | 23:37 |
| BluePhire1024 | Fishscence: I do hope they get it better. I been hoping that it will come through. Hoping to put it as an option at work. | 23:38 |
| onca | Orbixx: it's very likely that it's a NTFS | 23:38 |
| andi5 | koolrans: have you checked with ldd what libraries are picked up? | 23:38 |

| TheMusicGuy | andi5: the only one I can find is maxed too | 23:39 |
| koolrans | Okay, I have 3 libraries, A, B, C | 23:39 |
| andi5 | koolrans: maybe you need to run ldconfig? | 23:39 |

| koolrans | No, I just give the name of shared library | 23:40 |
| Fishscene | BluePhire, the application used to join Ubuntu to the Windows domain would crash or not join the computer to the domain properly, I managed to trick it into working a couple times, but never got any further than that (aka I couldn't get domain users to be able to log into the machine). There were several broken packages as well- and that's all I remember. | 23:40 |

| Peddy | can someone please tell me if there is a catalogue of older versions of Ubuntu packages, and where to find them? | 23:42 |
| raistlinmaje7 | The_Kernel: I'm not sure | 23:42 |
| raistlinmaje7 | sorry | 23:42 |
| The_Kernel | Yeah | 23:42 |
| jussio1 | Peddy: packages.ubuntu.com | 23:42 |
| The_Kernel | best bet to reinstall | 23:42 |
| TheMusicGuy | Even though Audacity won't produce any sound, all other sound-producing programs sound garbled as long as Audacity is running | 23:42 |
| TheMusicGuy | whether or not its playing anything | 23:42 |
| raistlinmaje7 | Peddy, yes, go to packages.ubuntu.com | 23:42 |
| andi5 | TheMusicGuy: does audacity really use alsa? | 23:42 |
| JakeMon | how do i see which packages are already installed? | 23:43 |
| raistlinmaje7 | sudo dpkg -l | 23:43 |
| Peddy | jussio1 raistlinmaje7: I am looking for an older version of flashplugin-nonfree to be exact. Can you help me? I'm here http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/flashplugin-nonfree but I can't find any older versions. | 23:43 |

| === Administrator__ is now known as faemir | ||
| Pelo | tomolds, threads are too long to read, just summarize your problem here please | 23:44 |
| raistlinmaje7 | Peddy: what version are you looking for? | 23:45 |
| Pelo | tomolds, the restricted driver has direct rendering built in now , try using that | 23:45 |
| raistlinmaje7 | did you make sure to change the distribution you want? | 23:45 |
| TheMusicGuy | It has a drop-down menu labeled "Ouput Device" which lists some 13 devices, all which start with ALSA: and then name one of the hardware channels, such as "front," "headphone," and some weird ones like "ALSA: HDA audio ALC883 Digital" | 23:45 |
| tomolds | Well basically I am getting errors in /var/log/Xorg.0.log It is saying failed to load /usr/lib/xorg/modules//libglx.so (Yes there is two slashes :-s) | 23:45 |
| raistlinmaje7 | below the search bow there is a distribution drop down menu | 23:45 |
| TheMusicGuy | the same channels listed by alsa-mixer, etc. | 23:45 |
| Peddy | jussio1 raistlinmake7: true, and I am looking for the version just before because the flash videos are skipping. | 23:45 |
| TheMusicGuy | there is also OSS: /dev/dsp listed, but it doesn't work | 23:46 |
| tomolds | Pelo: How do I do that? | 23:46 |
| raistlinmaje7 | flash videos? like on youtube? | 23:46 |
| Pelo | tomolds, menu > system > admin > restricted driver , see if here is one available for your hardware | 23:46 |
| andi5 | tomolds: all i know is that you can most likely ignore the double-slash | 23:46 |
| tomolds | Pelo: That is what I did to start with | 23:46 |
| TheMusicGuy | I've tried all the ALSA channels...most of them make Audacity freeze for about 10 seconds when I select them or when I hit Play, but then I just get an error message | 23:47 |
| Peddy | raistlinmaje7: yep. although this even seems to be happening with the an OLD old version from Kilz' script. Damn. It must be some other problem; do you have any ideas? | 23:47 |
| Pelo | TheMusicGuy, right click the volume icon in the top panel, properties, or preference, see wich sound device is used there and use the same one in audacity | 23:47 |
| tomolds | Pelo: I did that and posted the error produced, the fact is it would not load X thereon. I since had to change the driver to 'nv' to even get X. | 23:47 |
| TheMusicGuy | I tried that | 23:47 |
| raistlinmaje7 | Peddy: you sure its not a bandwidth problem or a resource problem? | 23:47 |
| Pelo | tomolds,my mistake, I'll but out then, | 23:47 |
| Peddy | raistlinmaje7: yes, definitely not | 23:48 |

| kindofabuzz | how do i share a /home pratition with gutsy and hardy? install hardy, make a link to the /home partition? | 23:49 |
| raistlinmaje7 | that's weird, did this happen after an update? | 23:49 |
| aanderse | has anyone ever seen this error before? NVIDIA: could not open the device file /dev/nvidia0 (input/output error). | 23:49 |
| Peddy | raistlinmaje7: I'm fairly certain it did. Also, Firefox has become unresponsive sometimes. | 23:50 |
| raistlinmaje7 | that's probably not a flash plugin problem then | 23:50 |
| koolrans | I paste the outpout at http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/7452/ | 23:50 |
| raistlinmaje7 | anything working less than stellar in firefox? besides the flash? | 23:50 |
| Peddy | yeah, seeing as it happens even with an older version. Do you have any idea what might be causing this? | 23:51 |
| jussio1 | TheMusicGuy: have you any oter sound apps running? ie skype, amarok, rhthym box etc | 23:51 |

| Orbixx | k1gwb: Just remember, that the password WILL be stored in that command. | 23:55 |

| Orbixx | k1gwb: So anyone else who can read or edit it will see it. | 23:55 |

| kindofabuzz | wantoch, you're on a computer and you don't know what time it is? lol | 23:56 |
| Pelo | kindofabuzz, yes, but you'll need to boot the live cd or another distro to do that, there is stuff in /home that will just get "regenerated" if you delete it | 23:56 |

| k1gwb | Orbixx: My password has a ( in it.. so I getbash: syntax error near unexpected token `(' ... do I have to escape the character somehow? | 23:58 |
| Pelo | kindofabuzz, you can leave it as is and mount to it , butyou wonT' be able to access the stuff in it | 23:58 |
