[00:00] sudo apt-get install moves [00:00] well nobody is going to answer questions about 8.04 here so.... [00:00] newbie: yes they have [00:00] I guess you'll just have to keep trying [00:00] can somebody help me with surround sound? [00:00] newbie: sorry, it was not to you [00:00] Bidget: there are several, but have different uses [00:01] disregard last post [00:01] proq, well basically I am trying to bind my media keys to "xmms --play-pause, xmms --stop" etc. I have a program called xbindkeys, but I don't know what my computer recognizes any of the keys as so I can't bind the commands to them [00:01] need to pay attention [00:02] proq, so basically all I need is a utility that will tell me the name of the key when I press it [00:02] proq, and xev didnt work [00:02] hello [00:02] I just tried parted magic on two different computers. [00:02] Zemus: still no luck? [00:02] vinny ! ask [00:02] It made the first one shut down out of the blue. Twice. The second one it is simply hung on the booting screen. [00:02] I could try it on this one, but somehow I have less than high hopes. [00:02] what is the developers channel? [00:03] Bidget: xbindkeys-config is a frontend [00:03] Hi guys, im trying to forward a port on my router - what is the diffrence between the filtering layer : Raw ip and port filtering ? [00:03] Nith, meaning...? [00:03] Bidget: it'll let you do the whole "press the button you'd like to bind" and then bind via xbindkeys [00:03] The only thing I've found that works every single time is partition magic, but unfortunately I can't find a torrent for that that is bootable. [00:03] Zemus: i have used on three different machines [00:03] Nith, it doesn't detect the media keys thats why Im trying to find out what theyre called so I can do it manually [00:03] atlef, glad you have better luck. [00:04] Bidget: xbindkeys-config doesn't detect the media keys? [00:04] Nith, no [00:04] Zemus: have you tried any "cheat codes" ? [00:04] Bidget: what keyboard is it? [00:04] Bidget: dumpkeys might work with xmms, not sure [00:04] Mark_G, logitech g15 [00:04] proq, I'll try out dumpkeys, thanks [00:04] Bidget: sorry, I've never had that. Gnome's keybindings gave me issues but not xbindkeys-config [00:04] atlef, no... [00:04] im back.. ^_^ [00:04] Hi guys, im trying to forward a port on my router - what is the diffrence between the filtering layer : Raw ip and port filtering ? [00:05] Nith, well the funny thing is if I use the gnome's keybinding it will detect the keys just fine, but for some reason it wont execute the commands to control xmms haha [00:05] is there an issue updating libqt3 from 7.10 base install? [00:05] what for your g15? [00:05] I'm not getting anything from my rear channels only front [00:05] everytime I do a new install adept-updater fails there [00:06] Bidget: /etc/acpi/ is where all the scripts are. If you know a bit of scripting you can start there [00:06] are there any known VIRUS in ubuntu? [00:06] no [00:06] just commands that are evil [00:06] Nith, uhh... I dunno if thats something I'd be successful at hahaha [00:06] Bidget: I tried with a logitech wave and had nothing but problems.. I switched to the Microsoft comfort curve 2000 wired and now use "Keytouch" to manage the keys. Works great. Have you looked at Keytouch? It's in the repos and other instructions are here. http://keytouch.sourceforge.net/index.php [00:06] jhoc2x: no. Ubuntu is safe from them. [00:06] a virus in linux? [00:06] that the user has to input the bad codes in [00:06] con-man: no [00:06] I suppose if you use wine to execute one [00:06] Mark_G, thanks mark I'll check out keytouch, hopefully that will work :D [00:06] jhoc2x: there were a few a while back [00:06] has anyone got compiz working on Mobility Radeon 7500 and Ubuntu 8.04 RC?

[00:08] con-man: rootkits meaning 'gain root rights on a Linux system' [00:08] RodGo: use Partimage.. easy [00:08] RodGo : http://www.ubuntugeek.com/clone-your-ubuntu-installation.html [00:08] con-man: there are ubuntu packages for detecting rootkits [00:08] LinuxGuy1234: sounds like what a windows virus does... except with windows xp you are logged in as admin all the time so its piss easy [00:09] con-man: sorry, that was for jhoc2x [00:09] is this works if i want to install 2 S.O's like windows and linux in different partitions?

Ubuntu by default works with surround sound [00:10] I'm looking for the actual folder name. It's no longer in my home directory under .Trashes [00:10] what's a better gdm or kdm display manager, what ever that is [00:10] how do I get a folder to be shared over samba? [00:10] ahhh [00:10] does anyone knows how I can disable a default driver for a wireless card and replace it for another? [00:10] Oh that's odd, I'm not getting surround on my default settings [00:10] LinuxGuy1234: why? Surely if adept is the program that ubuntu uses for updating it will *work* right? [00:10] Newbuntu_user: is surround working at all, as in, can you turn the front l&r off and get sound from centre only? [00:11] does anyone know how to automate tty-login? (ie. NO Xorg) [00:11] what is better recommended? gdm or kdm? [00:11] how do I share a folder over samba? [00:11] i have 4.1 surround so i don't have a center. i can't control the rear volume at all [00:11] Newbuntu_user: Im trying to figure out if its your rear speakers not working, or Ubuntu is outputting stereo [00:11] maw, was your answer for me? [00:11] i don't see an option [00:11] no [00:11] maw: It's different for the other desktop editions, update-manager is used in Ubintu, for example [00:11] jacob_: Personal preference. Generally, GDM goes along with Gnome and KDM with KDE, but if you use both, either way is fine. [00:12] !samba | TehLulze [00:12] TehLulze: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments.

[00:12] I downloaded the nvidia .run to update my video drivers, but it says i have to exit x server. How do i do that? [00:12] !modprobe [00:12] Sorry, I don't know anything about modprobe - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [00:12] I wanna bet that this is the most popular question tonight - will there be an easy update for those of us with 7.10, or do I need to "flush" the system clean? [00:12] LinuxGuy1234: update-manager has both Gnome and KDE versions. The Gnome equivalent to adept is synaptic. [00:12] Exlax: reboot [00:12] LinuxGuy1234: I did. [00:13] LinuxGuy1234: Because it's six months old. [00:13] Newbuntu_user: what drivers are you using? OSS or alsa? [00:13] alsa i think [00:13] how do i check? [00:13] Exlax: sudo invoke-rc.d gdm restart, or ctrl-alt-backspace, iirc. [00:13] Exlax: reboot 3 times. Might work. [00:14] RodGo : http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/partimage [00:14] tonyyarusso, : thanks. [00:14] Newbuntu_user: from the system menu go to preferences and then sound [00:14] so I checked out keytouch, it doesn't support my keyboard [00:14] can anyone tell me where I would find dumpkeys? [00:14] My Acer Aspire 5315 laptop runs Ubuntu fine. [00:15] OK. I just found where the trash folder is located in Gnome 2.22. It's under ~/.local/share/Trash/ [00:15] my swap partition is not being used, how can i fix this? [00:15] bbyever, that can be okay - that means it doesn't need to [00:15] I'm using Kubuntu at the moment, is there a way to check here? [00:15] bbyever: your swap partition is only used when you run out of RAM [00:15] bbyver: use swapon /dev/xxxx where xxxx is your swap partition [00:15] bbyever : swapon [00:15] bbyever, how much RAM do you use?

[00:46] SeaPhor: I also noticed, theres like 8 xorg.conf's in my X11 folder. [00:46] <_hello> spoweres, its the same :) [00:46] Hey. Network-manager does not detect my wireless card (the light on my laptop is not on either). It only shows my wired nic. However, if I use the manual configuration, I can connect fine. How can I get network-manager working again? [00:46] spowers: the tool will remove old, third party apt repos [00:46] Exlax, 1 sec [00:46] _hello: only apparently update-manager screws with my sources.list [00:46] ok [00:47] hi, i have a problem with acpi in my laptop, it doesn't always detect correctly when the ac-adapter is plugged [00:47] Wait, brb. [00:47] so i'll sanitize my sources and installed packages to make it easier for deps [00:47] going to go pull the trigger now [00:47] Exlax, did you do the -phigh or full? [00:47] spowers: try the apt-get dist-upgrade [00:47] <_hello> spowers, ok [00:47] hi ... when I booted ubuntu today I got the splashy screen no problem, but when it was trying to launch GDM for me, it did not and only went into text mode init 3 I believe ... I do not see a /etc/inittab so that I can change my run levels. Any reason why GDM suddenly doesn't load on boot? [00:48] from screen [00:48] spowers: what from screen? [00:48] Need to get 0B/1180MB of archives [00:48] ;) [00:48] Can someone help with SDL 1.2, I've been told ubuntu comes with it, but when I try to ./configure something it tells me it's not present [00:48] spowers: ok [00:48] I tried searching it in synaptics but can't find it [00:49] LoganHoup: search for libsdl [00:49] Exlax, have you looked in your System>Administration>Restricted Drivers Manager? [00:49] Hello. My PC reboots immediately and "randomly" when using 3D-accelerated programs after upgrading to Hardy RC. Is this a known issue? I haven't found anything similar in launchpad.net [00:49] In the logs I see something regarding GDM: DEBUG attempting to parse key strings ... Got config greeter / chooserbutton = false [00:49] Any ideas? [00:49] ok [00:49] whenever I try to access the mywebsite.com/doc directory or anything below it, the apache web server returns a 403 permission denied even though I set the permissions to xr for everyone and all files and folders in that directory. How do I access these? [00:51] help.. i restore compiz to its defaults.. lol, i cant see the windows borders again.. ^_^ and i cant see a dam thing using terminal.. it's all white [00:51] SeaPhor: When i went to enable Compiz, it asked me to enable Graphics Driver. So i did, and then restarted; and now it gave me the low graphics mode bs again. [00:51] SeaPhor: Is there any way i can uninstall the drivers i just installed, and return to using the ones that came with gutsy? [00:51] jhoc2x, #compiz-fusion [00:51] kk.. [00:51] how the heck do i find out what my workgroups password is? [00:52] Ok, I had libsdl1.2-alsa I'm guessing I need libsdl1.2-all? [00:52] they usually don't have passwords halopro4509 [00:53] hello..

[00:54] Exlax, look at the names and dates of the other xorg.conf files, and edit/look-at them to see the differences [00:54] well for some reason i belive that mine do, every time i try to login to anouther computer in the workgroup it says that i have the wrong pass word [00:54] Hi [00:54] wat the heck [00:54] halopro4509: that's another computer in the workgroup, not the workgroup. [00:54] <_hello> LoganHoup, edit your path to sdl config env in sudo gedit /etc/environment [00:54] err you lost me [00:54] okay okay [00:54] Exlax, also you can look here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64054/ thats what my recently xorg.conf file looks like [00:55] lol so how do i go about finding out the computers password, it is a linux running samba [00:55] Right, SeaPhor, but i think there's a problem with nvidia's driver. [00:55] I did dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and it rebooted, and it still said i wasn't using NVIDIA-X. [00:55] I'm back! [00:55] how's the bubble bobble game called|? [00:56] Exlax, have you looked in your System>Administration>Restricted Drivers Manager? [00:56] jvac, frozen bubble [00:56] halopro4509: it's not the computer's password - it's the password of your account on that computer. If you don't have one, you can't access anything. That's sort of the point. [00:56] lol [00:56] SeaPhor: If i enable that, it goes into low-graphics mode. [00:56] Exlax, are you on Gutsy? [00:56] Hi! I got a quick question. I installed amsn but it appears that all the text and pictures are really small in its window. How do I scale them to the size as all the other window? [00:56] I am. [00:57] Exlax, but does it say its in use>? [00:57] Not in use. [00:57] well idk if i have one, i have one for my login when i first turn on my computer. but that paswrod wont work when i try to login into it from anouther computer [00:57] hey how do I burn a cd? [00:58] Bidget, install gnomebaker it's the easiest way [00:58] Bidget: Try gnomebaker [00:58] Bidget, open a terminal type sudo apt-get install gnomebaker [00:58] Exlax, ok, cause there's two issues there, 1 is in use and the other is the check mark, mines not checked either but it is in use [00:58] Bidget: sudo apt-get install gnomebaker [00:59] It is neither checked, nor in use. [00:59] * Pelo does think that brassero is looking good, but the interface doesn'T realy work for him, he probably needs to get use to it [00:59] * LinuxGuy1234 is away: Gone away for now.. Will be back on. [00:59] Exlax, what vid card you have and when/where did you get the driver? [00:59] gnomebaker ok coo lthanks :D [00:59] For some reason when I now boot ubuntu, it will show the splashy but it will not boot into GDM, only straight into a terminal ... [00:59] What should I do if I bumped my thread about 10 times and still no reply? [00:59] any idea why GDM will no longer start at boot? [00:59] OP is 2 weeks ago [00:59] SeaPhor: 8800GTX, and right off of Nvidia's website. [01:00] _hello, just came back and saw ur message. Yes , I'd like to have ur opinions on backups [01:00] cirkit: run "ls /etc/rc2.d/ | grep gdm" [01:00] LainIwakura, try again and be patient, you can try rewording maybe or google or other related channels [01:00] cirkit: Can you get gdm to start with /etc/init.d/gdm start ? [01:00] does enabling the nvidia drivers need restart or just xorg restart aka ctrl alt backspace? [01:00] Exlax, ok, Pelo help me out if you know this one , but when i got the driver from nvidia's site and installed it did same thing [01:00] jvac, just X [01:01] SeaPhor, I don'T know the rest of the problem , summerize it for me pleae [01:01] Exlax, and nice card, i only have the 8600 :-( [01:01] So how do i fix it? [01:01] +s [01:01] _hello, basically I'm preparing for installing hardy on my dual-boot system. So firstly I'd like to get my /home backed up , and also my windows partition. Plus the dpkg thing for restoring all programs to default [01:01] Thanks ;x but unfortunately it's not helping much. === xelpud is now known as fduplex [01:01] im updating right now .... [01:01] well idk if i have one, i have one for my login when i first turn on my computer. but that paswrod wont work when i try to login into it from anouther computer [01:01] wow! right after the update it took me into GDM, I Logged in and it took me to a black screen [01:01] lol [01:02] Pelo, more or less, i had the nvidia drivers that came with Gutsy, and i upgraded by logging out, killing gdm, and installing the new drivers from nvidia's website, now if i enable the driver, ubuntu enters low graphics mode. [01:02] cirkit: Is it loading the rest of the way? [01:03] Exlax, install nvidia-config and nvidia-setting(s?) , with those you should be able to change the rez [01:03] Pelo, Elax installed the latest drivers for 8800 nvidia and now it does the boot in low graphics mode, he wants to uninstall those drivers and go back [01:03] Yeah. [01:03] I want to go back to what i had. [01:03] problem, windows won't connect to linux, and linux won't connect to windows. they see each other, but the user name or pass word is wrong for both of them [01:03] I tried that, Pelo, and it didn't work. [01:03] Starnestommy: S30gdm [01:03] wat am i doing wrong [01:03] alright so I installed gnomebaker, but I want to make an mp3 cd, how do I do that? [01:03] I restarted and it took me to init 3 text login [01:03] Exlax, Pelo, sorry i type slow [01:03] !mp3 | Bidget [01:03] Bidget: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats [01:04] Exlax, then all you have to do is reenable the nvidia driver from the restricted driver manager window and restart X [01:04] cirkit: what about "ls /etc/rc3.d/ | grep gdm" ? [01:04] I'll try that, brb. [01:04] Bidget: make a data cd with your mp3 files on it [01:04] SeaPhor, I forgive much but slow typing just rubs me the wrong way [01:04] Starnestommy: same result [01:04] I would like to use the desktop effects (compiz) with the nvidia-glx NOT nvidia-glx-new package. Is this possible? [01:04] atlef, oh ok [01:04] Pelo: :-( [01:04] cirkit: it should've loaded on boot [01:05] "Starting Gnome Display Manager" [01:05] Hello there can i do a dual boot with xp and ubuntu but by installing ubuntu first [01:05] Who_, as long as you have glx it should work , jjust try enabling the desktoop effects from the apperance menu [01:05] I see that, but it brings me to text login [01:05] can someone help me with my wireless probs on 8.04 [01:05] could it be the nvidia drivers? [01:05] Â/w 2 [01:05] Pelo: It doesn't work - no window borders [01:05] I installed them from administration [01:05] Nick123, yes but you'll have to reinstall grub, better isntall xp first , it's easier [01:05] §hardy | Vernunftige_Edel: [01:05] Pelo: can I check that the glx module is loaded somehow? [01:05] ok [01:05] Who_, it works, you just need to eanble the decorator, ask in #compiz [01:06] !hardy | Vernunftige_Edel: [01:06] Vernunftige_Edel:: 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 - Support in #ubuntu+1 - Come join the #ubuntu-release-party now! [01:06] Pelo: is that a bug against desktop-effects then? Because the decorator worked fine when I had the nvidia-glx-new package (i downgraded because the old one has suspend support) [01:06] Who_, if you don'T get the window borders taht means it's working, the decoratios are just "off" , ask in #compiz they can tell you how to activate them [01:06] /etc/init.d/gdm restart gives a "Starting GNOME Display Manager" ... but it doesn't load [01:07] i updated my version of ubuntu to 8.4 and the sound is all types of messed up. is there a way to fix this?? it sounds all static now [01:07] Pelo: Thanks. Any thoughts on whether it is a bug? [01:07] khaotik, in #ubuntu+1 [01:07] Who_, it's not a bug [01:07] good looking [01:07] it's just annoying [01:07] i foudn the driver for the wifi but having problems with the instal [01:08] Pelo: Aren't they the same :P? Surely if they can work fine for the new driver they shoudlwork fine for the old? [01:08] Who_, it's just a quirk in the compiz settings, the decorator got turned off, go and ask in #compiz on how to turn it back on [01:09] Exlax, any luck so far? [01:09] whenever I try to access the mywebsite.com/doc directory or anything below it, the apache web server returns a 403 permission denied even though I set the permissions to xr for everyone and all files and folders in that directory. How do I access these via my web server? [01:09] Vernunftige_Edel, state the problem you are having and we'll do our best [01:09] I need a distro of ubuntu or any linux that will run on 32 mb anyone know one? [01:09] let me refrase that question.... is it possible to define the start of the filname on the outputfile when you are makeing several screenshots with the mplayer comand? [01:09] demonspork, maybe the ppl in #apache can help you out [01:10] sjovan, ask in #mplayer [01:10] Pelo: i am :) [01:10] Pelo: When i enabled Restricted, it put me into low graphics mode, and it still says NVIDIA X is not in use. I've reconfigured, i've nvidia-xconfig, nothing is working. [01:10] Thanks pelo - I'm going :) [01:10] I need a distro of ubuntu or any linux that will run on 32 mb anyone know one? [01:10] Pelo, everything you told him i had already mentioned I hope he was able to fix it, I had the same prob for a bit and it was annoying [01:11] xubuntu [01:11] DarkLordVenom: not well [01:11] DarkLordVenom: xubuntu wont work on 32 [01:11] Exlax, very odd, this isn'T my best feild btw, try this , in terminal sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg , pick the correct driver, at some point you might be asked for resolution, leave the rest as is unless you absolutely know better [01:11] vendeta: anything will run - what you need to know is whether you can run a GUI. [01:11] I tried that, Pelo. No go. [01:11] Is there any way to uninstall the drivers i just installed, and revert back to Gutsies? [01:12] vendeta: perhaps Fluxbox will, or Enlightenment. Lots of options. [01:12] tonyyarusso: Yes sorry i want a gnome or dke desktop enviroment i forgot to specisize [01:12] vendeta: Gnome and KDE aren't going to work, sorry. [01:12] Network-manager does not show wireless networks, though running iwlist does. Can someone please help me try and fix NetworkManager? [01:13] SeaPhor, I can only review the basic, I have no way to tell what you ahve already tried, and I need to know the results anyway, I know it's kind of redundant but we don'T have a step by step trouble shooting guide we can all work from and then pass it on to someoe else and say :"take over from step 5" [01:13] heck, some of the applets in Gnome use 32 MB. [01:13] what are you trying to do with a system that only has 32mb of ram? [01:13] tonyyarusso: Ok is their anyother versions besides command line that will? [01:13] Exlax, you need to restart X after the dpkg-reconfigure [01:13] i did. [01:13] it puts me into low-graphics mode. [01:13] Exlax (+ Pelo, cos you clearly know better than me and can correct me!): I don't know your setup but for me I have just worked around a regression in the nvidia drivers by instaling nvidia-glx instead of nividia-glx-new. Coudl that help in your situation? [01:14] Hey! Anybody have a second? [01:14] rixth-> nm takes a snapshot of what it can detect, its not continuous [01:14] Trying, Who_ [01:14] Exlax, did you try changing the resolution from the resolution dialog in the pref menu ? [01:14] I did, that's no problem. [01:14] dirka, ask your question and hope [01:14] It's nvidia-settings that won't recognize anything. [01:14] Pelo, everything you have said is what i have said, and thats the limit of my knowledge, thats what fixed mine, and a gksudo gedit of the xorg.conf file but i had help with that [01:14] !ask | dirka: [01:14] dirka:: 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. :-) [01:14] vendeta: Like I said, try flux or E, or openbox/blackbox/matchbox, or icewm [01:15] Exlax, ok open a terminal , gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf, pastebin it for me [01:15] amenado: my laptop hasn't moved for the last week and I've rebooted several times. The wifi light is not glowing on my laptop either. I can connect to the network if I edit /etc/network/interfaces manually so the hardware is OK. [01:15] tonyyarusso: Ok thanks alot [01:15] is this the place to ask questions about hardy heron? [01:15] Exlax: follow Pelo before taking my advice :) [01:15] ezzieyguywuf: until its release, #ubuntu+1 is [01:15] !hardy | ezzieyguywuf: [01:15] ezzieyguywuf:: 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 - Support in #ubuntu+1 - Come join the #ubuntu-release-party now!

[01:16] anyone can help me please [01:16] DarkLordVenom: yes, but I since turned it back on. The bluetooth light is on, wifi is not. amenado, yes, I _can_ connect to my wireless network if I set it up manually. [01:16] hello, is there an equivalent of deamon tools for ubuntu to mount a .bin dvd? [01:16] <_hello> dirka processor is not a problem [01:16] Pelo: no one in #compiz is biting. Is it a case of hunting around in CCSM? If so I can do that... [01:16] Vernunftige_Edel, I know nothing about wifi , just direct your question to the channel if anyone is able to help I'm usre they will try, [01:17] no, it is build in in the pc [01:17] <_hello> respawn, yes [01:17] http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64055/ [01:17] That is awesome!!

[01:18] _hello, What do you think would be the best distro of ubuntu to do this with? I'm not overly familiar with linux, but I can figure stuff out. [01:18] tonyyarusso: Openbox is a .deb package how does that work? [01:18] TaRDy: good for you [01:18] in sata disk partition [01:18] amenado, manually setting the SSID and WPA key [01:18] rixth-> thats not manual command thats gui. [01:18] vendeta: you should install it through the package manager built into the system. /msg ubotu software for details. [01:18] but i have one disk alone with windows xp [01:18] I was wondering if I downloaded Ubuntu 2 days before the offical release will I have a ton of updates to do to get up to the offical release on Thursday?

[01:18] hi , can someone help me with my wireless.....I tried out 3 different Linux OS (gOS space,7.10 and hardy) but none of them could find the wireless connection I have in my room... intel network adapter 82562v-2 is the network card and the driver i tried to install is e1000-8.0.1 (which failed) [01:19] !wifi | Vernunftige_Edel have you looked in here ?

[01:19] rixth-> are you in roaming mode? shows nothing? you mean during after scanning no AP is visible? [01:19] but i cannot mount him :( [01:19] whileimhere: Probably not a ton, but the installer will be updated and such, so unless you're comfortable with unstable software you might as well wait.

[01:20] tonyyarusso: So i have to install ubuntu or something first? [01:20] Pelo_ yes, sinnce this morning I'm reading about how to fix my wireless [01:20] _hello, sounds good to me, do you know anything about interfacing with an OBD2 port in a car? Also, will a M$ fingerprint reader work with ubuntu? (Atleast, is there some sort of drivers I could find to make it work?) [01:20] vendeta: Correct - you can use the !alternate CD to install a minimal system and install openbox from there. [01:20] rixth: try sudo ifconfig wlan0 up in a terminal [01:20] dirka: you wanted something? [01:21] heu the last [01:21] rixth-> dont know ..thats why i always trust the command line versus gui.. [01:21] version [01:21] tawt, boot the 14 one, then open the /boot/grub/menu.lst file, find the 16 entry and make sure the files it looks for are there [01:21] v7 .... [01:21] DarkLordVenom, ah. These problems did seem to arise after I turned my wireless off and back on though. I have restarted since then [01:21] Hello all. I just updated to Release canadate and my network stopped working. [01:21] i'm french so if anyone speak french ^^ [01:21] respawn, we're 2 days from the next release [01:21] Anybody else run into this? [01:21] torrent of release ? :D [01:21] LWATCDR: #ubuntu+1 [01:21] !fr | respawn [01:21] respawn: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais. [01:21] Pelo, Exlax, says hes using vesa? and driver nv,,, thats not right, look at mine,,, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64054/ [01:21] <_hello> dirak, dont know abotu finger prin reader and OBD2 can u expand ? [01:21] Pelo_could it be that i'm installing the driver wrong? [01:21] DarkLordVenom, the interface is up, I am able to use it (I am right now). It's just that NM does not see it. [01:22] <_hello> dirka, dont know abotu finger prin reader and OBD2 can u expand ? === bazhang_ is now known as bazhang [01:22] ok thx ^ [01:22] Pelo: Decorator is on but doesn't show - note that I had to install ccsm to get that 'options' button on the desktop effects tab [01:22] hi [01:22] SeaPhor, the identifier is just a name , it's not the driver [01:22] tonyyarusso: So when i get to ubuntu terminal if the download link is http://bah.com/openbox.deb id just type in sudo wget install http://bah.com/openbox.deb [01:22] tonyyarusso: Whats the difference with the installer? [01:22] can someone take a look at this output from GDM ... maybe someone can make better sense by this as to why GDM doesn't load at boot ... http://pastebin.ca/993962 [01:22] vendeta: no, you don't get it from that site at all - you use apt-get. [01:22] Ahh, I'll just do some googling on those topics, it's more specialized to my car anyway. Thanks for your time though, I'll definitly wait until tomorrow. [01:22] whileimhere: That's a question for the release team :) [01:22] Vernunftige_Edel, it is possible, that's why I gave you the link, review the documentation , also chec the settings in admin > network [01:22] oh I see. [01:23] tonyyarusso: No that was a example url openbox has a wiki with a link to a .deb package [01:23] Who_, go in the options of the decorator and play with that [01:23] What's all this scrabbling about? [01:23] also I was wondering about how to take source code and make a Deb file out of it. I have found a few sites that talk about it but since I am not a hardcore gamer I get lost. [01:23] thx [01:23] Who_, the decorator might need to be off , so the windows decorator kicks in [01:23] vendeta: Regardless, you won't be using any link at all - it's all built into the system. [01:24] Zelta, what scrambling ? [01:24] Pelo: Eh? as in turn off the decorator plugin? [01:24] Pelo_ I'm gonna re -look at it [01:24] Who_, yes [01:24] tonyyarusso: Ok so how to i start synpatics package manager from terminal? [01:24] thx [01:24] whileimhere: #ubuntu-motu can help you out with that, although you may need to be patient since lots of them are busy with release stuff. The links in the topic are a good start. [01:24] Vernunftige_Edel, also check here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport maybe there is a note , or in the forum [01:24] :) Thanks man [01:24] Anyone? [01:24] or girl whichever [01:25] vendeta: Synaptic is a graphical application, and not available from terminal-only installations. Use apt-get instead. [01:25] in cron, 15 10-22/3 * * * would that mean every 15 minutes on the hours between 10-22 but run every 3 hours? so 10,13,16,19,22 ? [01:25] http://pastebin.ca/993962 [01:25] adamb, are ou sure you can do that ? [01:25] pelo: yes both files for 2.6.24-16 are there [01:25] <_hello> dirka, ,are u still here [01:25] adamb: that would mean on the 15 minute mark on hours between 10 and 22 divisible by 3, so 12:15, 15:15, 18:15, and 21:15. [01:25] can do what? as in is it valid, yes it is [01:26] What is the best channel to ask about the Release canadate? [01:26] <_derspankster> ubunt+1 [01:26] <_derspankster> ubuntu+1 [01:26] #ubuntu+1, rather. [01:26] tawt, ok compare the entries , make sure they are similar, the only thing diffrent should be the files [01:26] tonyyarusso: oh, thats means hours divisiable my 3 only? [01:26] adamb: believe so [01:26] Pelo: Still nothing - and starting /usr/bin/compiz-decorator --replace just outputs 'starting gtk-window-decorator' and hangs - so I will restart and see if anything is better :S [01:27] I have installed mydns but when running external tests I am getting problems.

(using hardy here) [01:42] pelo: so i have stuck with the 32bit edition [01:42] Yes. I have the HDD names shown. I just can't double-click on them. [01:42] I would just like to say to all those people who thought windows was the only plug n play OS...screw off :P new mobo and proc and it detected everything automatically, no changes.

Can anyone help me please? [01:42] Not sure if its a kernal panic or not -- nothing is in my syslogs [01:42] iowa, do you have desktop effects enabled? If so, you'll have to download the compiz settings manager and mess around with it to disable it. [01:43] what do I need to do to get to my HDs though? am I supposed to manually put them in /etc/fstab, or is there more to it? [01:43] grims-> what were you doing during that time when it freezes? [01:43] Malaz: yeah, i have, both. but i cannot find it in compis-settings-manager. [01:43] grims, can you reboot ? [01:43] compiz* :P [01:43] I know nothing of linux. [01:43] iowa^, yo need to isntall it , check in synaptic [01:43] iowa^: sudo aptitude install compizconfig-settings-manager [01:44] i have it already ;) [01:44] amenado, the first time i was running package manager -- but it seems to do it within 20 minutes even when not using the package manager [01:44] Pelo, yes, I have and it does the same thing each time [01:44] Chaotic_Descent, are those ntfs hdds ? [01:44] i cannot seem to find the right "setting" tho. [01:44] Chaotic_Descent-> perhaps then a tutorial on linux basics? plenty of tutorials if you google for them.. [01:44] grims, laptop ? [01:44] Each time I reboot, before it goes to the login screen it seems like it goes into sleep mode. [01:44] No [01:44] anyone know of a good bluetooth manager for ubuntu where i can browse my phones storage card like you can under windows?? [01:44] Yes. NTFS partitions. [01:44] iowa^: Are you using Compiz as a window decorator? [01:45] grims, laptop could have been an overheat issue, might be the same with a desktop I guess [01:45] I have a day to pack. I don't have time for tutorials right now. I didn't know upgrading my ver of Ubuntu was going to cause all these problems. [01:45] !ntfs | Chaotic_Descent [01:45] Chaotic_Descent: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - For write access, see /msg ubotu NTFS-3g or /msg ubotu FUSE [01:45] wich graphical tool could I use to see my bandwith, connections... [01:45] http://tldp.org/LDP/intro-linux/html/ Chaotic_Descent here is a nice beginner's bit [01:45] @hauppauge : It depends on on phone brand! [01:45] Pelo, the desktop is in its own AC'd room right now at a steady 60F :\ [01:45] iowa, I really don't know how to change that without installing a different window manager like emerald. Metacity isn't that tweakable. I'm sure there is a way to change titlebar transparency (in fact, think I saw it before) but I can't think of how to do it. Perhaps someone else knows? [01:45] LSG: metacity i think, "standard" that comes with hardy with visual effects on [01:46] Chaotic_Descent, ok then open a terminal sudo apt-get install ntfs-config , then look for it in the applications menu [01:46] DooDle: well i can browse etc under windows but havnt found a good bluetooth browser program for linux yet [01:46] Pelo, I also ran memtest86+ to make sure it wasn't the ram and the ram did not fail any tests. [01:46] Malaz: yeah really strange, and i dont want to run emerald [01:46] iowa^: Yeah, i've looked everywhere for those transparencies and i haven't found them. [01:46] does anyone know what the adress of the ubuntu headquarters is [01:46] @hauppauge : What's your mobile phone..? [01:47] thanks, bazhang. I'll bookmark that and look at that next week when I'm back from my trip. [01:47] grims, I have no idea, try researching it in the forum www.ubuntuforums.org search for related keywords like lockup or crash [01:47] DooDle: LG enV [01:47] LSG: yeah, i've looked in gconf-editor, but nothing there either. [01:47] <_hello> has any one used nvidia 8600 ?? [01:47] Thanks, Pelo. [01:48] Pelo, okay -- thanks! [01:48] _hello, I have 8600 [01:48] does anyone know what the adress of the ubuntu headquarters is, the US one [01:48] _hello: is that your real question? [01:48] curses. Error : An error occured when trying to initialize HAL. Can't search for new partition. [01:48] I (stupidly) did a usermod --uid on my account and now it's screwed up (login prompt is weird, can't sudo, etc). any ideas on how to fix this? [01:48] _hello, I have 8600, whats the question? [01:49] iowa, I'd try to find it in compiz-settings-manager, but I don't have it installed right now, and KDE doesn't really like it, anyways. But I'm sure someone else knows. If all else fails, try Google. [01:49] iowa^, no visual effects to speak of metacity in hardy (gnome 2.22) does some compoziting, shadows transparencies some minor animation of menues and close maximize of windows , nothing major but it allows you to run screenlets and avant , in gconf-editor , under app metacity general compoziting [01:49] <_hello> Seaphor, are u getting right fps as u get on win [01:49] I use a 8600 also [01:49] heh [01:49] <_hello> carbonflux, same question for u too [01:50] _hello, well you are asking if I get the same frame rate I do in windows ? [01:50] _hello, I get better than when i'm on my windows partition if thats what you're asking? [01:50] using what application ? [01:50] DooDle: i bought that cirago small bluetooth adapter now i just need some bluetooth software for ubuntu where i can drag/drop stuff [01:50] ah, there we go. sudo vim /etc/passwd [01:50] Pelo: yeah, know that, but its strange that you cannot turn off titlebar transp. with compiz/metacity. [01:50] @hauppauge: Have a look there : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=75978 [01:51] <_hello> Seaphor, u meant u get it better on ubuntu :) [01:51] if you are talking about running a videogame in wine vs native in windows you will not get the same frame rates [01:51] please help me how can i load a subtitle in totem? [01:51] Malaz: i've looked everywhere in compiz-settings-manager too, and i found nothing either. [01:51] is wine really any good ? [01:51] @hauppauge : Don't bother about he SE stuff, and sick to it! [01:51] _hello, I play an online game called city of heroes,,, better graphics faster zone times and almost zero lag? [01:51] iowa^, you need to pick a theme with no transparency tnen , [01:51] are there any dark themes that are actually usable? (meaning they dont ruin how text is displayed in firefox and pidgin and evolution) [01:51] <_hello> CArbonFlux i know , i meant i am getting lags:( on compiz 3d desktop too :( [01:51] ng0n, well, it can be it your really work on it [01:52] Pelo: well im using clearlooks... only way to disable it is to disable visual effects i guess.. [01:52] _hello, yes, same machine, same hardware, better on Ubuntu 7.10 [01:52] iowa, I'm sure there's an option in a conf file somewhere. [01:52] Does SWAT require apache? [01:52] <_hello> Seaphor, thznks for that info.. any way how did u installed the driver :) [01:52] Malaz: yeah, probably. [01:52] _hello, what kind of cpu do you have ? [01:52] DooDle: i am running gnome looks like those are for kde [01:52] iowa^, you do get that desktop effect and metacity compziting are not the same right ? [01:52] will wine run OUTLOOK ? [01:53] why would you want to do that? [01:53] ng0n, yes, but virtual box is a better pick for that in some ways if you take the trouble [01:53] iowa^, you can use metacity in compiz, but not at the same time as emerald , ask in #compiz [01:53] Pelo: yes, i do, desktop effect = compiz [01:53] @hauppauge : You're right, KDE stuff... [01:53] <_hello> CarbonFlux i am using pentium D X86_64 3.0 [01:53] ng0n, Wine is really good at running some video games [01:53] xim. i hear ya. let's say i'm NUTS. [01:53] whew. that first link you gave me worked. that second method you described in here didn't work. :> [01:53] haha ok [01:53] @hauppauge : Sorry bout that! [01:53] !appdb | ng0n read about what will run here [01:53] ng0n read about what will run here: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org [01:53] Pelo: yeah i am aware of that. [01:53] <_hello> carbonflux, its kinda old :( [01:53] regardless, thanks for getting my NTFS HDs accessible. [01:53] iowa, I'll look it up, but I doubt anything will be found. [01:53] but i dont know, i use VMware for all my windows stuffs [01:53] Chaotic_Descent, np [01:53] sorry for being an eternal newb. [01:54] _hello, ya it really, I have the same configuration and its running quite fast. [01:54] it really is odd* [01:54] I promise I'll work harder at learning when I'm not in such a rush. ;) [01:54] ok. actually i'm about ready to just bag MS. I am technical enough to hack it and keep it running.. but the thrill is going [01:54] * Carbonflux thinks about it [01:54] Chaotic_Descent, being a noob is noting to apologise for, as long as yo learn something [01:54] D00Dle: maybe i can use my bluetooth under a virtual machine [01:54] _hello, didnt have to, was in the restricted drivers, i just enabled it, BUT! before i tried to update it with the one from nvidias site, after i did that messed things up and had to revert [01:54] iowa: Success! Found a blog entry on it, should help you out: http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2007/10/04/adjust-the-transparency-of-window-decorations-with-compiz/ [01:54] Malaz: okay! you dont have to, its not a big deal, only irritating ;) [01:54] ng0n, I installed XP in a virtual box and that does everything I need [01:54] Malaz: thanks! :D [01:54] hauppauge, doesn'T bluetooth in ubuntu access your device automaticaly ? [01:54] hey. [01:54] SMART [01:55] and its a lot safer [01:55] Carbonflux, any problems with the virtual XP? [01:55] eh. I've been a noob for over a decade. I only have so much motivation to spend time learning this abstract technology stuff. [01:55] carbon flux: exactly. tnx. i'll try it. [01:55] Malaz: hats off to you! :D [01:55] Rolcol, I have problems with seamless mode because of Twinview [01:55] pelo: naw it gives me some error, when trying to communicate with it but i can see it... headset fone etc ... [01:55] <_hello> Seaphor, ok i got it:) [01:55] gotta run. tnx u all. [01:55] Carbonflux, how can i do that instead of having a dual-boot system? [01:55] iowa: It was the top entry for "compiz window decoration transparency" on google. You should try searching for something like that next time. [01:55] hauppauge, did you research the error msg in the forum ? www.ubuntuforums.org [01:55] Carbonflux, which program do you use? [01:56] Rolcol, otherwise its been a really stable solution, I use it in Vista also to run linux heh and can move the VM's around over my network between windows and linux and run them [01:56] pelo: naw i just gave up i didnt presue it [01:56] Rolcol, virtualbox.org [01:56] ... [01:56] is vbox free ? [01:56] pelo, yes [01:56] Rolcol, there is also a open source version in the ubuntu repo's [01:56] pelo: yes [01:56] is anyone decently familiar with xchat-gnome client [01:56] Rolcol, does it have a .deb package , is i in the repos ? [01:57] Rolcol, most I use the windows XP vbox in Linux to run media players [01:57] i wish virtualbox could let you see pci/xpress devices in vm's [01:57] Malaz: yeah, well, i searched something similiar, with no sucess, and its quite late over here ;) thanks [01:57] .... [01:57] Pelo, it is in the repositories [01:57] xim, enough to tell ppl to install xchat instead [01:57] I am glad to report, that nvidia-settings is now reporting that my drivers are correct.

[01:57] <_hello> hey is vb better that VmWare ? [01:57] hauppauge, heh I don't :) I use vbox as a kind of jail for windows apps [01:57] pelo why is that? i like this look better than crazy tabs everywhere [01:57] _hello i would say so [01:58] Whats the big difference between Gobuntu and Ubuntu? I know that it has to do with open source verses not open but for example my laptop has no proprietary drivers. So does that mean Gobuntu will work okay most likely with it? [01:58] I'm not sure, pelo. I've just started using it but even then only for Linux virtual machines [01:58] but my problem is it seems completely impossible to use anything other than the default port [01:58] VMWare is non-free also [01:58] <_hello> ok [01:58] @hauppauge : I never tried a USB dongle trough a VM machime! [01:58] xim, crazy tabs everywhere ? only at the botom of the window, or in treeview if that,s wath yo want [01:58] <_hello> VMWare server is free and good but dont know about vb [01:58] D00dle: i'll try it out ... [01:58] can anyone help me? i'm trying to stream certain videos on the net and only some sites work? anyone know how to fix that? [01:58] Rolcol, thanks [01:58] _hello, vbox is free and open source [01:58] _hello, I personally don't like that you have to still register for the serial number for VMWare [01:59] can anyone help me? i'm trying to stream certain videos on the net and only some sites work? anyone know how to fix that? [01:59] _hello, I'm told that vbox is less resource hungry but I havn'T tried it yet [01:59] <_hello> RolCol yes right ;) [01:59] hmm ok, dammit im too lazy for linux, ive just been keeping pages of lists of all my problems that I run into with everything I do, and its really beating me down [01:59] Braydon619, what format ? [01:59] umm? i'm not to sure [01:59] xim, just ask one at a time [01:59] Gotta go now!!! Too late here!!! :P [01:59] See you all! [01:59] cya =) [02:00] g'night DooDle [02:00] So, I guess it is fixed, sort of. [02:00] Exlax, realy ? [02:00] one of the files is .swf [02:00] Um, yeah, i can play LOTRO, and i can use Compiz effects [02:00] nvidia-settings says its at 169.12 [02:00] Braydon619, that's flash, did you install flashplugin-nonfree ? [02:00] Braydon619: sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree [02:00] well, on this machine I can run a full copy of windows XP in a vbox with all the memory settings maxed and run all more normal linux apps ( which is alot ) and not even use 1/2 my ram [02:01] iowa^, make him enable the backport repos first [02:01] bazhang, hi... [02:01] also vbox is nice about using processors [02:01] it will only use one processor [02:01] hi arvind_khadri! [02:01] says it's already newest version [02:01] Pelo: yeah ;) forgot about that [02:01] Exlax, good to hear it! :-)) [02:01] iowa^, and make him do it with the gui , not with the sources.list file [02:02] It reports some errors when nvidia-setting though [02:02] _hello, I wish I had a idea about your graphics issues but don't, it might be something else or it could be you have a heat problem and the card is slowing itself down, also you are using the restricted driver right ? [02:02] the command sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree says that i have is newest version [02:02] if I install 8.04 rc, does that mean in two days i will have to download the stable version and reinstall or will it just download the appropriate updates? [02:02] <_hello> carbonflux, right i did some mistake [02:02] Exlax, I recommend you come back on different days maybe on the weekend different crowd maybe someone will have a better solution for you [02:02] I had nothing but problems with VMWare on all my machines [02:02] Well it works [02:02] solotitan: it will just update [02:03] virtual box is simple and works good [02:03] its like night and day [02:03] ok thanks [02:03] <_hello> carbonfluxm i will reinstall it and sort the things out :) [02:03] ERROR: Unable to assign attribute XVideoTextureContrast specified on line 51 of [02:03] configuration file '/home/x/.nvidia-settings-rc' (no Display [02:03] connection).

[02:03] _hello, a clean install, make sure you use the restricted drivers etc [02:03] Braydon619,that's all I had maybe you need to stream those vids using somethjing oter then firefox, try with mplayer vlc or xine [02:03] Braydon619: System, Adminstration, Software Sources > Updates > Enable Unsupported updates (backports) [02:03] <_hello> Exlax whats ur nvidia card no ? [02:04] hello :) [02:04] Exlax, and wait and see, what is right and what is wrong, some things may be fixed with an update to something else that is a dependency [02:04] Mark_G, I have not tested it but I used the .deb package from their site, closed source binaries so I could support the USB stuff, I have not tested it tho :( [02:04] is there a way to install the src to the restricted modules packages [02:04] <_hello> Seaphor, tell me what do u use to play that game u just told me :) [02:04] Carbonflux: just wondering.. I've had nothing but success with VMWare server.. :) [02:05] to be compiled at the same time you compiule a new kernel deb [02:05] Mark_G, I can say this, it does install the USB driver and that works fine in Linux but does give me a error in windows [02:05] hello [02:05] How can i play mp3 files [02:05] first using ubuntu. slackware user. [02:05] Exlax, PM me' [02:05] Carbonflux: you mean VMWare server in windows? [02:05] _hello: 8800gtx [02:05] a lot of docs to read. [02:05] wooker__: install ubuntu-restricted-extras [02:05] I would like to know the following: [02:05] wooker__ go to start menu ? > add remove > search there for "mp3" download and install the Gnome Extras [02:06] in slackware I can ftp and get all updates and burn a cd to use later. [02:06] wooker: enable universe repos from system>software sources, then install the ubuntu restricted package [02:06] 2 days left! [02:06] Mark_G, well I am new to VM's and tried VMWare first in Vista heh, I assume VMware is a lot more mature and people do say its faster [02:06] yayayay!! [02:06] how to do this kind of thing with ubuntu? [02:06] the update thing under administration didn't work... i can't seem to figure this out why i can't play all streamed videos [02:06] f'maluquinho___: there's aptoncd [02:06] you can get source code packages via aptitude as well? [02:06] maluquinho___ you can in ubuntu to but your looking at 4 dvds [02:06] <_hello> gogeta yesterday it was just coming soon [02:06] maluquin: Apt-on-CD. Download it from main repo [02:06] hi folks, i've been getting a problem with hardy lately....when i do "sudo apt-get update" i'll eventually get this message: "W: A error occurred during the signature verification. The repository is not updated and the previous index files will be used.GPG error: http://vn.archive.ubuntu.com hardy Release: The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG 40976EAF437D05B5 Ubuntu Archive Automatic Signing Key ", how do i fix this [02:07] _hello oh did it get delayed [02:07] Carbonflux: if it was the "Home" addition that may be why you were having issues. The home addition doesn't have IIS which is needed and supplied with the pro version. However there is a hack to add IIS to "Home".. haven't tried it yet though. [02:07] Hey gUys, I have a lot of questions about 32-bit/64-bit os and cPUs. Can anyone pm me? Or is that possible on this channel? [02:07] atponcd... i will search for... thank you. [02:07] <_hello> gogeta i think so :( [02:07] It's not exactly the same thing and I don't like it very much as it only gets what's in the cache, but it should do the job. Boa sorte. :) [02:07] How do I synchronise Thunderbird on both Ubuntu and Windows XP so that whatever mail I download on Ubuntu, can also be read on Windows? [02:07] Mark_G, I just don't want to turn off driver signing :) [02:07] maluquin It's a nice GUI for copying some stuff from your apt cache to CD, then using later by adding cd as a repo [02:07] caligarn1037: join #ubuntu+1 [02:07] how do i disable totem-firefox? someone on net said that might help with streaming videos [02:07] bbyever: thanks [02:07] Carbonflux: :) [02:07] Exlax, PM me' [02:07] hi, I want to know how to install xchat onto ubuntu desktop version? cuz when I go to the xchat site, it only provide a Windows and Fedora one [02:08] My problem is: I have a 4GB RAM setup, and I'm wondering if I should get a 64-bit OS? Even though the CPU is 32-bit. Is that possible? [02:08] caligarn1037: np [02:08] <_hello> SeaPhor, tell me what do u use to play that game u just told me :) i meant wine or crossover or something else [02:08] Exlax, PM me' [02:08] kidz - Go to Application, Add/Remove, and search for X-chat [02:08] GamingX: well, you are fetching mail from a server, dont think its possible without a plugin that syncs between the windows and thunderbird apps [02:08] I did, SeaPhor [02:08] Thanatos inpossbale and 32-bit can use 4gb of ram anyways [02:08] So I should stick to 32-bit everything? [02:08] kidz: sudo apt-get install xchat [02:08] Thanatos 4 gb is rhe max [02:08] Mark_G, I was thinking about waiting until VMWare server supports Windows Server 2008, there will be signed drivers then, I have tried VMWare in Linux at all ? [02:09] Thanks! [02:09] Can't the mail be stored in a common location to both? [02:09] kidz: sudo apt-get install xchat (not xcaht-gnome) [02:09] Thanatos a 32 bit pc cant run 64 b bit apps [02:09] 00, ok [02:09] On the other hand, would anybody know how to configure sysfsutils to begin at boot up? [02:10] GamingX: well, it should be possible, i dont have the knowledge tho, google it :) [02:10] Thanatos: the only limit to using 4G of ram with 32bit OS is single processes can only use so much memory due to architecture problems [02:10] Is anyone else having problems with firefox since the update to 2.0.0.14? [02:10] Thanatos: but unless you know you need that much for a single thread, it's not an issue [02:11] making a kernel is pretty easy on ubuntu lol [02:11] New_lemming: switch to 3 :) [02:11] Thanatos: Either way, if you don't have amd64, you have to use 32bit. [02:11] GamingX: found this: http://www.mozillazine.org/talkback.html?article=4468 [02:11] SuperQ: What about Intel Core 2 Duo T8300 / 2.4 GHz processor? [02:11] Is that 64-bit? [02:11] GamingX: damn, dead link. [02:11] Thanatos: yes, that should do amd64 mode [02:11] core2 duo's are 64 bit [02:12] Thanatos: yes, it's 64-bit compatible too [02:12] how do i join 8.04 suport? [02:12] SuperQ: not quite correct; core 2 duo can use 64 bit as well [02:12] The processor is 64-bit, but you need a 64bit OS to use 64bit apps [02:12] I should say that core2 is 64bit [02:12] Exlax, I sent you all you need,, in PM [02:12] bazhang: that's what I just said [02:12] Zackymc_k : #ubuntu+1 [02:12] Hello All, I'm somewhat new to ubuntu. I would like to know if anyone would happen to know of a program that's able to run Windows XP programs only on a ubuntu 7.10 laptop? [02:12] GamingX: google "thunderbird mail sharing" :) [02:12] SuperQ: So then it _would_ be advisable to upgrade to 64-bit. I think I will! Thanks. [02:12] Zackymc_k : /join #ubuntu+1 [02:12] Thanatos: no [02:12] Thanatos: if you don't have > 4G of ram, and you don't know you need it [02:12] wouldnt you think, if i put the port number after the server domain with a colon thats how the xchat-gnome would want it [02:12] Thanks. I will keep reading. I found aptoncd. Good. Thanks again. bye. [02:12] so it uses both the x86_64 and the amd instruction sets? [02:12] Thanatos: there is NO reason to use amd64 [02:12] !wine nks16 [02:12] Sorry, I don't know anything about wine nks16 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [02:12] !wine > nks16 [02:12] Thanatos: using amd64 on a desktop is just asking for problems [02:12] Is it possible to dual boot both a 64-bit and a 32-bit OS? [02:12] oops :) [02:13] well, Intel's x86_64 implementation is pretty much a copy-and-paste of AMD's [02:13] Thanks, SeaPhor [02:13] HymnToLife: yup [02:13] so in a way, Core 2's _are_ amd64 :p [02:13] HymnToLife: yup [02:13] SuperQ i use one,and i dont have much of probs though [02:13] HymnToLife: cpu feature LM [02:13] 64 bit linux just isn't really ready for the desktop yet [02:13] nks16: Sorry about that xD! What you are looking for is http://www.winehq.org/ also check #winehq channel [02:13] Thank you Mimi [02:13] I'm using gutsy on AMD 64 and never have any trouble with it [02:13] prakriti: yup [02:13] prakriti: 64bit Windows isn't, either [02:13] here's the trick we do at work for 64 vs 32 [02:13] except all the irc software was written by retards [02:13] we install 32bit OS [02:13] and then run a 64bit kernel [02:13] What possible problems could arise from using 64-bit Gutsy/64-bit Vista or XP? [02:13] HymnToLife : i don't use windows, I wouldn't know [02:14] awhatever the hell "ready for the destop"(TM) means [02:14] this way we get both [02:14] prakriti: you might say that users aren't ready for 64bit on the desktop.. [02:14] desktop* [02:14] what are the advantages to uses a 64bit system vs 32bit install? speed? [02:14] for the specific applications that we know need > 3G of ram per process, we compile them to 64bit [02:14] Since allowing the auto upgrade to upgrade firefox to 2.0.0.14 today the browser no longer renders graphics. Anyone else seen this? [02:14] CorbinFox: MORE BITS! ;) [02:14] CorbinFox: really, it is very application dependant [02:14] CorbinFox: nearly none [02:14] New_lemming: no [02:14] CorbinFox: some things run faster in 32-bit, others run faster in 64-bit [02:15] New_lemming, at the max u need to wait 24 hours, then hardy is out.. firefox 3 ^^ [02:15] The simple fact is.. most common desktop applications do NOT need 64-bit [02:15] * Mimi geekogasms [02:15] superq: i read something really interesting on how the cpu handles anything above 3gb, a kernel has to boot the 64 bit chip into linear mode [02:15] Is it possible to dual boot both a 64-bit and a 32-bit OS? So I can try it out? [02:15] so not a big deal? ok, cool. now i dont feel bad about using 32bit just in case it was inferior somehow :D [02:15] Thanatos, yeah sure [02:15] then it has to manage its own global dexcriptor tables [02:15] chrisf826: I'm not sure what you're talking about [02:15] sorry, not going to use hardy until it is proven......hardy. :) [02:15] and address management [02:16] Thanatos: yes, of course [02:16] pelo, after reinstalling the kernel 2.6.24-16 packages, i can't boot into either kernel [02:16] * Pelo just remapped his mouse button [02:16] superq: i am trying to make sense of the non amd chips method of bootstrap === fds is now known as tawt1 [02:16] amd has an additional mode [02:16] a kernel can use [02:16] New_lemming: I woudlnt worry too much about upgrading; unlike other operating systems, ubuntu's serious bugs are fixed quickly :0 [02:16] fds, that one is easy [02:16] pelo, after reinstalling the kernel 2.6.24-16 packages, i can't boot into either kernel [02:17] sorry I cant get my nick for some reason [02:17] receiving an error message: start-stop-daemon: stat /home/scarter/folding/FAH/fah6 -smp -verbosity 9: No such file or directory (No such file or directory) [02:17] chrisf826: Yea, I havn't looked into the specific CPU modes for x86_64/amd64 in a long time [02:17] works without the -smp and -verbosity 9 switches [02:17] speaking of 64bit builds, god that one took forever [02:17] pelo, what do i do? [02:18] this is in an init script that can be found here: http://pastebin.com/m64cbeef6 [02:19] I just enabled ati restricted drivers and upon restart, I get stuck at "running local boot scripts (/etc/rc.local)" anyone seen this before or know what is wrong? [02:19] tawt1, that one is easy , installint new kernel reconfigures the grub menu .lst file, do this , once you are in the grub menu, at boot, select an entry , hit e to edit , find the root line, hit e to edit , if I remember correctly from your pastebin you boot to root (hd0,2), fix the line to say that, hit enter to acept then hit b to boot , you'll need to make those chjanges permanenet in the /boot/grub/menu.lst file after [02:19] you reboot [02:19] maw, envy??

[02:21] pelo, i'm still pretty new [02:21] arvind_khadri: thought so.. should I replace the ati entries with "vesa" or something? [02:21] Pelo, envy is in the repo's for 8.04 [02:21] pelo, but this one server wants my password in the /pass format and im not sure what blank to put that in in my settings, is there a name for that authentication system? [02:21] maw, try reconfiguring once if it doesnt ,then replace nv with vesa [02:22] tawt1, not realy much to elaborate, installing a new kernel updated your /boot/grub/menu.lst file, it does that to me and it puts the root line bck to (hd0,1) , that's not the one I need, it's probably the same with you [02:22] ok thx [02:22] !info envyng-gtk [02:22] Package envyng-gtk does not exist in gutsy [02:22] !info envyng-gtk hardy [02:22] envyng-gtk (source: envyng-gtk): install the ATI or the NVIDIA driver.

[02:25] @pelo I think I have the same problem but I want to be sure. after a fresh install of hardy or an upgrade I can not boot. It just stays at the splash screen [02:25] does anybody have the md5sum for the x86_64 hardy rc? [02:26] whileimhere: sure, but why degrade them more--mp3 cd's work fine in most modern hardware players [02:26] wvmac, this problem ( tawt1 's one) won't let you get to the spalsh screen, you get a msg right in the grub menu at boot [02:26] wvmac: ditto [02:26] bazhang because Im oldschooooolll [02:26] !md5 [02:26] To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows [02:26] anyone got pinnacle hdtv usb to work b4? [02:26] wvmac: you get all kinds of I/O errors? [02:27] something about filesystem [02:27] debatem1: should be where you downloaded the iso from [02:27] * Pelo enabled metacity compiziting , just for the hell of it [02:27] Ive got the list of the VH1 top 100 of the 80s and I have almost all of the original Lps and LOL are you ready for this CDs!!!! but there are a few I dont and instead of buying a whole album well a single might do for now. [02:27] bazhang aac beats all [02:27] wvmac, do you know what partion your ubuntu is on ? [02:28] bazhang: didn't see one, im still looking but since I'm evidently blind and/or stupid its not going well [02:28] hd0,0 [02:28] wvmac, got any other os on there ? [02:28] no [02:28] debatem1: do you have the link? [02:28] wvmac, then you probably won'T get this particualr problem I wasn talking to tawt about [02:28] gutsy and feisty never gave me this problem [02:29] debatem1: http://us.releases.ubuntu.com/8.04/ [02:29] debatem1: http://us.releases.ubuntu.com/8.04/MD5SUMS [02:29] astro76: thx [02:29] wvmac, betas are betas for a reason they are for trouble shooting, I know there was a problematic relesae of -16 last week, it gave me trouble I had to boot 15 to use the comp [02:30] is there an easy way to get a server for a network install running? like starting a script on the livecd? (i know how to set up a server, but if there were an easy way to run the install/live cd inthat mode it would be good to know :-) [02:30] ah good, just a bad burn [02:30] Is anyone here familiar with Jinzora? [02:30] do all dark colored themes make text unreadable in firefox and pidgin and evolution [02:30] pelo, do you think it will be safe to try another upgrade soon [02:30] wvmac, just wait for the official , two days from now [02:30] depending on where you are [02:30] lch: server is text install; no live cd for that iirc [02:31] TehLulze: what is it [02:31] bazhang: that is ok. there is a laptop w/o cdrom and the net install would be the easist way to install. [02:31] bazhang: How do I get it to stream instead of me having to down the m3u file every time? [02:32] lch: you have a system on there already? [02:32] TehLulze: you never told me what jinzora was ;] [02:32] bazhang: Ohhh [02:32] 63.99.211.87:8000 [02:32] Bazhang: Its a media server [02:32] bazhang: but for the tftp server it would be nice to be able to run it on the live cd on an other machine. i'd do the install at an other place (windoze users.. ;-) [02:33] if the modem is on my router's WAN, my pc is on *.*.1.5 and my friend's wifi router's wan port is plugged into my lan port(his router's LAN ip range is *.*.2.*), what would be required to use nfs/samba in the different subnet? [02:34] So quiet... [02:34] Seven_Six_Two, maybe you can ask in #networking or in #samba [02:34] sup people [02:34] * Pelo slaps Leodime and runs away [02:34] lch: is there an os on that laptop already? [02:34] Seven_Six_Two: that should work out of the box, as long as the computers know how to reach each other. check "route" if there is a gateway from one net to the other [02:34] Hey, come back here! [02:35] * Leodime chases Pelo [02:35] bazhang: i'm not sure. maybe a windows, but i'd like to format the entire disk anyway [02:35] * Pelo gets a wet towel to defend himself [02:35] Oh no! [02:35] i got gran paradiso from the repository to try it out but it seems to be an old alpha -- is there any way to get a newer version without compiling it myself? [02:35] Seven_Six_Two, i could pull out my books and do the math, but i'm lazy, try googling subnetting [02:35] lch: if it is windows or even another linux you could do unetbootin to get that up and running [02:35] Seven_Six_Two: if you use the LAN port of your friend's wifi router and disable it's DHCP server, you could use the same subnet [02:35] lesjohn, try www.getdeb.net maybe [02:35] Pelo, #networking maybe. I don't really want to use samba, just want it to work like he's on my subnet [02:36] lesjohn: you plan on upgrading to hardy? [02:36] Does anyone know how to get multi finger taps working on a synaptics touchpad? [02:36] Seven_Six_Two, no one was answering ad this is over my head, I was just directing you where maybe .... [02:36] astro76, yeah, but will that affect the wireless? [02:36] Who_: it should just work if your touchpad supports it (two finger = right click, three finger = middle click) [02:36] !touchpad > Who_ check for a private message windows with instructions from ubotu [02:37] Seven_Six_Two: nope it would work fine as an AP, and connect you right to the main router and it's DHCP server [02:37] I have no sound in wine, can anyone help me? [02:37] Who_, there is a guide in there for emulating double click [02:37] . [02:37] bazhang: i'll upgrade, but only after waiting awhile -- i'm on powerpc so i'm hoping to wait until problems are worked out [02:37] I get "(snd_pcm_dmix_open) unable to open slave" in the terminal [02:37] rixth, type wincfg and go to the audio tab , select the asla bit [02:37] astro76, ok thanks. when you bridge some routers it gets disabled so I wasn't sure if that would have the same effect [02:38] Pelo, yeah? Alsa is ticked [02:38] rixth, might want to upgrad to the latest version of wine also 0.9.60 [02:38] lesjohn: the upgrade has firefox beta 5 (final in June) worth the price of the upgrade alone ;] [02:38] rixth, other then that ask in #winehq [02:38] astro76, bridge combo modem/routers with wifi I mean [02:39] Pelo, I am using 0.9.60, but thanks, I'll go to that channel [02:39] bazhang: great, thanks (: [02:39] rixth: gutsy or hardy? [02:39] * Pelo wonders what 3d desktop realy mean, is it only shadows and things like that that make it look a bit 3d or is there more [02:40] I had the problem in gutsy, so thought I'd go to hardy, but it remained. [02:40] lch, I wouldn't care if I had to add routes on the machines, but I don't know how to do it with the one last xp machine here, so I think I'll try the other way first [02:40] rixth: padsp -- wine foo.exe ? [02:40] its the cube [02:40] Does anyone know how to get multi finger taps working on a synaptics touchpad? [02:40] rixth: or pasuspender -- wine foo.exe [02:40] I have the simple two-finger tap -> button 3 but I want two finger + CLICK --> button 3 [02:40] Who__, did you check the link ubotu gave you in private ? [02:41] ubotu didn't give me one... [02:41] Seven_Six_Two: xp has a route command too, sliglitly different syntax than ubuntu but similar enough. what you need is a machine that can reach both networks as gateway [02:41] Ooh, now it has : [02:41] ) [02:41] man this room is dead tonight [02:41] crimsun, I get that error when running winecfg [02:41] Who__, mightjust need to remap the buttons in xorg [02:41] how can i configure the compiz?

[02:49] or like Starnestommy says. :) [02:49] dysinger, google for 'ubuntu torent' should find the homepage with all the ubuntu torrents. [02:49] slackd00d, if it is, it would be with FUSE [02:49] Dr_willis - it's not out yet right ? [02:50] I already have the RC [02:50] dysinger, i imagine its NOT out yet then. :) [02:50] dangit, just installed ubuntu 7.10 server and it says my username isn't in the sudoers file. what's up with that?

[02:51] bazhang - thanks - I already got that one over the weekend [02:51] so I can check it. [02:51] why put a server on a RC? [02:51] Siven_six_two - why do people run Debian Unstable ?

[02:52] What is a good media server? [02:52] tells me permission denied. [02:52] Seven_Six_Two - they are amazon EC2 images and through away [02:52] throw away [02:52] rlangly, what command ? [02:52] it only asked to create one account during installation, which I"m using, and given I'm albe to login I assume the password isnt the issue. [02:52] Plus like the man said - apt-get update [02:53] It's close enough [02:53] Randocal, you need to edit it with vi , sudo vi /etc/sudoers [02:53] first I was trying to edit the /etc/network/interfaces file since I didn't estup on startup [02:53] best to edit sudoers with the visudo program [02:53] im new to irc channels, but how do i leave one?

[02:56] rlangly: ctrl+alt+delete in a console window [02:56] gogeta, for some reason during installation, it didn't add my account to the sudoers file... crazy! [02:56] Scunizi, I think he means a way of doing it through firefox similar t acessing the router [02:56] I dont' like the idea of Ubuntu disabling root access like it does... [02:56] if something like this happens, what's a guy supposed to do, reinstall? [02:56] well i am using firestart but... something controlled from a browser [02:56] rlangly, sudo -s should get you root [02:56] rlangly your sudo is your password [02:57] rlangly: try the recovery entry from the grub menu and add yourself to the suoers or add a password for root [02:57] gogeta, he means that ubuntu does not have a root account, it uses sudo instead , [02:57] !sudo [02:57] sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. [02:57] lch, doing that now actually :) [02:57] oh then sudo -s [02:57] it does have a root but is assigned a random password : its better to use sudo if you dont know what your doing :-) [02:58] buzzsaw: it isn't assinged a password, not even a random one [02:58] buzzsaw: i hope its not random but disabled ;-) [02:58] pelo, it says "You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems", but when i run sudo apt-get update, i still have these problems [02:58] yup, i wasn't in the suders ... crazy! [02:58] pelo, it just repeats the message [02:58] tawt, does it identify the problem ?

[03:06] is there a guide that will walk me through moving an install that was done inside windows (C:\ubuntu) to its own partition? [03:06] lch: my friend had a prob with the headphones not working how can i avoid this? [03:06] pelo, should i wait 2 days until it's officially out, burn a live cd and install over this partition? [03:06] Pelo, tawt: a single line failing to load the package list isnt usualy a big problem. it wil print a warning each time ok, but removing the sercuity server is a bad option IMHO ;-) [03:06] tawt, you got your /home folder on a seperate partiton right ? [03:06] tawt, do you have a working os in the mean time ? [03:06] Hardy Questions Belong in #ubuntu+1 not in #ubuntu [03:06] pelo, no but i've already made a back up on my flash drive [03:07] Pici: topic says those are Beta/RC questions, mine isn't a Beta/RC question. === Iced_Eagle is now known as Iced_Eagle[Away] [03:07] Cobain I don't think there is a way to do that [03:07] ich we're just grasping at straws here a reinstall of the kernel pacakge caused tawt to be unable to boot the computer [03:07] at all? [03:07] pelo, yes i have xp [03:07] jtbandes: It means all Hardy Questions [03:07] Pici: okay [03:07] i mounted and cp'd everything over to the new partition but there isnt anything inside /boot on that partition [03:07] Cobain: I don't see why you couldn't just create a new partition, then move all the files over [03:08] Oh. [03:08] tawt, ouch, well if you can manage withough it , waiting two days is not that bg a deal [03:08] ubuntu: sorry can't help you there. you may need to thescibe the problem in some more detail and if you were able to hear something with other headphones or audio outputs. but i'm leaving now [03:09] pelo, i know. i first switch to gutsy about 20 days ago, and have been on windows about 30 minutes in those 3 weeks [03:09] pelo, i'll try to survive lol [03:09] 30 minutes of pain? ;-) [03:09] How can I unsubscribe from bugs in launchpad? [03:09] tawt, ;-) [03:09] Cobain because certain files have to exist in a linux partition so the only thing I can think of is backup all of your packages and make a actual linux install [03:09] woodwizzle: Click the little unsubscribe button on the left when you are logged in and looking at the bug [03:09] jtbandes: any ideas? [03:09] !launchpad [03:09] Launchpad is a collection of development services for Open Source projects. It's Ubuntu's bug tracker, and much more; see https://launchpad.net/ [03:10] pelo, ok, so how do i get out of nano? [03:10] Cobain: I don't have much experience with ubuntu [03:10] tawt, I tried ubuntu because I wanted to familiarise myself with linux to pad my CV , took me 5 days to boot windows back and that was just to get my email info [03:10] tawt, ctrl x , n to not save [03:10] Cobain: in some setups, /boot is on a separate partition and just mounted there. depends on how the system you want to copy was set up.. [03:10] Pici Ah OK, but how can I unsubscribe from all of 'em that I'm subscribed to? or at least see a complete list? [03:11] woodwizzle: Probably on your user page under bugs, #launchpad for further questions :) [03:11] Is there any way to save iwconfig essid so that I don't have to set it everytime I log in? Thanks. [03:11] Pici, oh ok, sorry I musta spelled launchpad wrong in the channel search and didn't find a channel [03:11] pelo, thank's man for all of your help. you're really ubuntu-wise. i'll do a clean install in two days [03:11] * Pelo wonders if brassero supports multisession dvd , gnomebaker did not [03:12] woodwizzle: no need to apologize [03:12] tawt, you canstill have fun playing arond and trhing to fix it try asking the ppl in #ubuntu+1 [03:12] What is #ubuntu+1? [03:12] pelo, ppl in #ubuntu+1 never respond [03:12] i have a question you guys may be able to answer [03:12] LainIwakura, support chanel for the next release of ubuntu [03:12] ok [03:12] tawt: uh, have you tried?

[03:13] Pelo, true, I was just pointing out that people are active [03:14] amirman84, it's free, for the people, and by the people [03:14] amirman84, ubuntu is pretty run of the mill, the run of linux distros, it's just that you are comming from windows [03:14] lol [03:15] rama_su, go to the forum and do a search for convertit , one word www.ubuntuforums.org [03:15] i've used a few distors but ubuntu has incredible forums and is stable as FAWK [03:15] distros [03:15] amirman84, I was taking a jab at windows [03:15] i'm new from windows [03:15] amirman84, wait until you've seen hardy [03:15] Pelo: thanks [03:15] (but not for the next 2 days :( [03:15] does anyone else use pandora.com? [03:16] LainIwakura: i dont have wireless but i think applications like "network manager" (some package name like that) could take care of that (unless you only boot to the console, or you need network during booting) [03:16] i'm using hardy [03:16] * Pelo noticed that the system req for hardy have gone up from 256 meg of ram go 36* [03:16] I'm using Windows now because I cannot type traditional Chinese in Ubuntu. I have sought help for two weeks on the forum, but no one replies to my thread. Could someone please help me? If I can type traditional Chinese in Ubuntu, I would not use Windows again. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=720206&highlight=traditional+chinese [03:16] * Pelo is looking into ubuntulite for his aunt's computer [03:17] lainIwakura: I'll try it [03:17] chinese keyboard layout is for suckers anyways [03:17] Pelo, what's she got?

[03:17] not in a long long time [03:18] Pelo, yeah, lite or perhaps puppylinux [03:18] yay pandora :) [03:18] oops [03:18] neat idea though [03:18] hey guys, i just went to ubuntu.com , and i noticed there is 2 days left till hardy, the release candidate that is available for download.. is it going to be what is actually released? [03:18] I've been relearning nethack [03:18] LainIwakura: Did you use adminsitration language support? [03:18] i wanted to love linux for so long because of what it stands for but i just couldn't make the switch because my graphics card and my wireless card weren't supported, i took weeks of my time to try to get this things to work through endless console work but i just figured out 2 days ago that all i had to do the whole time was enable backports, proposed, and third party software sources, and it was so easy to get it working [03:18] thinkingfrog: Yes. [03:18] pandora is god awful slow for me [03:18] Daisuke_Ido, I'd reather have her in a *buntu derivative, I'm more use to it ,but I haven't realy been able to find screenshots of the ubulite gui , she's not computer savy [03:18] ToddEDM: No, its a release candidate, and there have been updates since. Further questions in #ubuntu+1 please [03:19] !offtopic [03:19] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! [03:19] LainIwakura: there are tools to detect wireless networks and conencto to your prefered network but ok.. if you want to automate thinks at boot up. you can place shell scripts in /etc/rc2.d etc. those will be run on boot (there may be better ways now with the new loader but i dont know them) [03:19] Pici: thanks for the answer.. .btw i did ask there ... it was like talking to the air [03:19] Daisuke_Ido xubuntu can run on 64mb [03:19] whats the difference between ubuntulite and xubuntu? [03:19] and i didnt want to repeat [03:19] lch: Okay, thank you for your help. [03:19] pelo, what chat app do you use? [03:19] you can also add start up items in prefs -> sessions [03:19] gogeta, i've run xubuntu on a 700mb machine with 128mb and it was painful [03:20] is there a program that can tell me how rubust my system are? [03:20] i cannot in good conscience recommend it for a 64mb system [03:20] tawt, xchat , straight , not xchat-gnome [03:20] Daisuke_Ido well thers 3 untralight distros [03:20] I need to figure out how to tweak Gutsy to be faster [03:20] how can I tell how much ram a process is taking? not % of ram.. but actual # [03:20] save power with more efficient configuration [03:20] is anything going to change between now and thursday in 8.04 [03:20] Daisuke_Ido at least well known ones [03:20] pelo, ok, i'm tired of pigeon and chatzilla [03:20] gogeta, fluxbuntu... but if she's not computer savvy, it might not be a good idea [03:20] LainIwakura: Where do you need to type in Chinese? [03:20] tawt, those aren't real chat clients [03:20] towlie2: Perhaps, please direct Hardy questions to #ubuntu+1 [03:21] thinkingfrog: Everywhere. Firefox, pidgin, word processor, terminal, etc. [03:21] pelo, ohh [03:21] hmmm [03:21] puppy linux is an incredibly lite linux distro that has a very windows user friendly GUI (it's XFCE) it works great but i've had problems getting it installed on a hard drive [03:21] puppy, dsl, deli [03:21] let me see if I can get that set up on my system [03:21] thinkingfrog: wait for hardy before doing tweaks ;-) and check out "powertop" [03:21] thinkingfrog: Thank you. [03:21] Daisuke_Ido, I would have liked a windows manager that was organised like gnome, xfce is too complicated , I can'T even find my way aorund in it [03:21] towlie2: you cant wait either ,eh? [03:21] Daisuke_Ido if i rember dsl is debain based [03:22] Is anyone aware of a program that will convert an ISO image to what it would be if it were on a CD, or just a video file? [03:22] amirman84 lol cant use the unviersal puppy installer :P [03:23] IamReck you can mount the iso and uppl the file [03:23] IamReck pull [03:23] IamReck: open the iso file with the archive manager or loop mount it to get access to the files within the image [03:23] IamReck, just use fileroller to extract it , and play the .vob files from it [03:23] Please take non Ubuntu support questions out of #ubuntu, perhaps into #ubuntu-offtopic or the distribution channel of your choice. [03:23] IamReck, won't work with kvcd [03:23] gogeta: i'm not a dunce. i used the universal puppy installer, i had endless problems, the guys on the puppy linux forums were confounded [03:23] ToddEDM, hell yes [03:23] i think it's a hard drive issue [03:24] IamReck, and look here http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Gutsy#Mount.2FUnmount_.iso_Images_in_oneclick [03:24] amirman84 < dunce hat [03:24] amirman84, gogeta: This channel is only for Ubuntu support, please see my message above regading offtopic.

Worked fine on Gutsy. The video card is a 9100 IGP. Did some poking about the web and tried a number of fixes. Has anyone else run accross this? [03:27] Snic42: Please join #ubuntu+1 for Hardy/8.04 support/discussion. [03:27] ubuntu out yet??????????? [03:27] buckie, forwarding a port just means that you tell a router that port **** is opened but only for ip *** *** *** ***, to do that , your computer need a static ip , you can look at www.portforward.com for instrucons about yoru router model but I have no idea how to set a static ip in server [03:28] Thank you Pici [03:28] !new releasr?

How can i get that back? [03:29] Starnestommy, u noob? [03:29] tomtommy: update-manager -d [03:30] tomtommy: Please be respectful. [03:30] hello [03:30] bazhang, ok ty [03:30] tomtommy: I meant that I am very sure, but they may have changed things. [03:30] hey buckie: if you are using DHCP and always end up with the same IP it's not necessary to switch to a static IP [03:30] starnestommy: Everytime I tried doing a dist-upgrade via the update manager, everything broke [03:30] Pici, define respect :) [03:30] !guidelines | tomtommy [03:30] tomtommy: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that.

[03:32] buckie: ok, well you should probably just switch to a static IP anyway then, i just know with a laptop, it's a pain to switch to a static IP because you will run into problems when trying to access wireless access points when you're out of the house [03:32] * tomtommy hides in the corner [03:32] I love irssi [03:32] wish it was easy to put on osx [03:32] amirman84, I can imagen that [03:32] !coc > tomtommy [03:32] urthmover My first time trying it out [03:32] urthmover: ubuntu in virtualbox?

[04:00] vhaarr-> at the time you can not sudo, are you able to resolve another host like www.yahoo.com? [04:00] tehjesse: Can you explain better what you mean by hard drive loading [04:00] amenado: PING www.yahoo-ht3.akadns.net (87.248.113.14) 56(84) bytes of data. [04:00] i have 3 hard drives [04:00] Jack_Sparrow: it failed said no such entry [04:00] and one is loaded with all my music and shit [04:01] but it's just not recognizing the drive [04:01] vhaarr-> am asking during the time you can not sudo, can you resolve? [04:01] i had a guy do it with me last night but it unmounted again today [04:01] amenado: yes, I can, that was the first line of output from 'ping www.yahoo.com' [04:01] !enter | tehjesse [04:01] dangit .. my wife's HD crashed and I have no backup... blah! prompted me to setup a linux server again for backups, which is what I'm on now.

[04:02] tehjesse, what file system is it ? [04:02] tehjesse: Which drive is it that you are having problems with? [04:02] doug2266778822, hard to see that from here... :) [04:02] samalex more then a new harddrive [04:02] amenado: http://pastey.net/86278 [04:02] Pelo, yes, says my cam isn't on there, but i've see forums claiming folks have got it to work under gspca drivers. [04:02] doug2266778822, WHat is your question [04:02] gogeta: true, but it's the data I'd like to get back... [04:02] thnk u so much Jack_Sparrow [04:02] playstation emulator ==> http://psxemulator.gazaxian.com/ [04:02] a 250 western digital and it's worked fine before but it just happened the other day when i installed enlightenment [04:02] np [04:03] hello, I cant seem to get JACK itself to work anymore, it claims that HW:0 is in use, which means an application is using it. Ive looked for particular processes which might use the sound card but i cant find any, and im not sure what is running to prevent JACK from starting. [04:03] chris062689: thanks [04:03] Cann0n, you need to look for the chipset in te gspca list , not neccesarly the maker, check the specs ofhe cam online if you have to [04:03] Jack_Sparrow: i am transfering all my files from ntfs to the ext 3 gutsy and i want to delete the ntfs and make it all one drive without deleting my ext3 files i am transfering. [04:03] chris062689, also check out mame or xmame... [04:03] spencer: have you reboot? [04:03] samalex, seagate has recovery, and on their site has a calculater/quote, tells you what it costs before you commit,, if you want ill get the addy? [04:03] Jack_Sparrow; he's looking for playstation emulation, not mame? [04:03] tehjesse: Is it just one partition on the drive and what file format is it in (ntfs/ext3 etc.) [04:03] yes, the problem has persisted for a week now [04:04] it' [04:04] SeaPhor, sure thing .. but the drive is IBM, does that matter? [04:04] chris062689, Agreed.. but many of the playstations roms are available under mame [04:04] vhaarr-> try to make that /etc/hosts entry look like 127.0.0.1 localhost.homedomain.com localhost folk [04:04] Jack_Sparrow; ah didn't know that! [04:04] can someone tell me how i can force my speedstep capable cpu to run at full speed? [04:04] one more question, in order to set up my internal sd card reader, (TI) do i need to compile a new kernel? cuz the direction i've found led to that... [04:04] it's a whole set of folders. i just loaded linux the other day and i put all the info on that drive, unplugged it, and installed linux. shut the computer down and plugged it back in [04:04] doug2266778822, single drive or multiple [04:04] Hey can anyone help me configure my download manager to work with my rapid share premium account to download multiple files? [04:05] Jack_Sparrow: single 320gb [04:05] was heißt Ubuntu 8.04 Daily Build [04:05] chris062689, I have tons of nintendo 64 games under mame too [04:05] amenado: yes, that should work, you are right - but why does it work for a few hours after rebooting and then stops working just by itself? [04:05] doug2266778822, currently single partition? [04:05] Cann0n, you might have too, but get the info from the ubuntuforums instructions for other distro might not owrk or be too old [04:05] vhaarr-> i have not look at the code of sudo to tell you [04:05] tehjesse: pastebin the output of 'sudo fdisk -l' [04:05] Jack_Sparrow: ah yea one so far. [04:05] doug2266778822, how full is it? [04:05] I cant find any obvious processes that would prevent JACK from access to the sound card [04:05] Jack_Sparrow: when ig et done almost full [04:06] Its not clear as to what is using the sound card to begin with [04:06] vhaarr-> do it the right way then, put those entries as suggested [04:06] do i have to be in the group to chgrp some file to a new group? [04:06] ozzloy-> nope, you can be root [04:06] amenado: alright, I have to reboot one time first now so I can 'sudo nano /etc/hosts' and then reboot one more time to pick up those changes [04:06] chgrp somegrpimnotin somefileiown [04:06] spencer, have you enabled jacksense in the volume controler preferences ? [04:06] doug2266778822, easiest solution is to buy or borrow another drive.... [04:06] amenado: what if i'm a regular user? [04:06] Pelo, it was all based on ubuntu forums. they are talking about recompiling a new kernel and all that bull. hopefully the new version of ubuntu will have better support with internal readers. it was on the brainstorm [04:06] I'm guessing you guy's can't help ? [04:06] Jack_Sparrow: brb [04:06] k [04:06] whats the command to ah yes apt-cache search to find what package contains a lib? [04:06] No, what is that? I use KDE [04:07] scorp: what ? [04:07] ozzloy-> are you a member of both groups? ie the source and destinations? [04:07] ok i did pastebin but it just listed a list of commands. [04:07] Cann0n, I couldn't be able to tell you [04:07] ng0n: my wubi problem [04:07] hello [04:07] fnask@fnask:/media$ ls -l = d????????? ? ? ? ? ? slicky.se And fnask@fnask:/media$ sudo ls -l = drwxr-xr-x 1 fnask fnask 4096 2008-04-22 23:57 slicky.se whatś wrong? [04:07] tehjesse: ? [04:07] scorp: guess not. i don't know what wubi is [04:07] Scorp_-> what have you done? what is not working? [04:08] Is there a way to implement that feature "Jacksense" in kde? [04:08] ng0n: lol, it's a way to run ubuntu without partitioning [04:08] Scorp_, Wubi faq or forums would be your best bet. [04:08] tehjesse: You know how to open a terminal? If so then run the command 'sudo fdisk -l' [04:08] i did [04:08] amenado: let's say no? [04:08] scorp: on NTFS drives ? [04:08] amenado: right after install when I boot I get a black screen with intraframs [04:08] when i try to browse my removable hard drive using nautilus it hangs up when i try to go into a particular folder. I can use a program and open files there though? === rat32 is now known as Palace_Chan [04:08] ng0n: yes [04:08] help? [04:08] can anyone suggest a good command line newsgroup reader? [04:08] ozzloy lets say no you cant then [04:08] amenado: let's say i'm a member of the source but not destination group [04:08] Jack_Sparrow: ok :) [04:08] scorp: nope. haven't done that. [04:09] a ton of terminals keep popping up [04:09] ozzloy lets say no you cant then [04:09] ng0n, yes, simulates a partition in a file on a windows drive... can also be dangersous even as noted on the wubi faq sheet [04:09] folks whereis the javaplugin package for ubuntu 64? [04:09] samalex, check here, click on SEAGATE, http://www.wood-bee-co.com/woodbeeco/index.php?option=com_weblinks&catid=22&Itemid=26 [04:09] amenado: icic [04:09] Jack_Sparrow: im back [04:09] k [04:09] ng0n, it's kinda like a VM on windows for ubuntu.. it installs ubuntu in a file and lets it run like any other program.. it's a hardy addition [04:09] joebloe, run fsck on it , unless it's ntfs , then find a windows machine to run a scandisk [04:09] tehjesse: You just need one :) close the rest [04:09] amenado: what if i'm a member of both groups? [04:09] i c [04:09] amenado: do you know how to fix my problem? [04:09] can someone tell me how i can force my speedstep capable cpu to run at full speed? I have powernowd running but i can't seem to force it use max cpu speed and my even when compiling something intensive this thing still doesn't go up [04:09] tnx. [04:09] Jack_Sparrow: why cant i just say load live cd and extend the ext3 that i am on now? will it cause me to lose the data i am transfering from ntfs to the ext#? [04:09] Scorp_-> isnt it required to have windows running before running a wubi (like an emulator) ? [04:09] Would Jacksense shutdown the processes using the soundcard so i can access JACK? [04:09] i know, alright, the drive im looking for, is coming up in the list of drives [04:10] amenado: no [04:10] ozzloy-> i say you try and see the effects, [04:10] chris062689: what package contains libgtkglext-x11-1.0.so.0 [04:10] Ok, so uTorrent froze a while ago, so I killed it, and restarted it, but half of the icon is still up by my clock. How do I get that to refresh up there? [04:10] re-boot. [04:10] Scorp_-> are you sure? my read on it says, it has to be running windows to install wubi yesh? [04:10] gene2, you just need to chagne the governor, there is a pannel app you can use to do it quickly, check in the pannel under add to pannel [04:10] utorrent working well here. [04:10] how do I rename my partitions? [04:10] amenado, I think that wubi does something to the boot sequence.. so this might be a video (xorg) issue. [04:11] ng0n, utorrent works very well on wine, it's gotten much better in the last year [04:11] tehjesse: What file format is the partition you are trying to mount? [04:11] *dances* [04:11] what do you mean? [04:11] doug2266778822, I may be missing something but you would need an empty ext3 equal or greater than your current ntfs and I thought you said the ntfs was almost full [04:11] amenado: yeah, i was just thinking that [04:11] izinucs-> does it not require windows to be running first before you can execute that wubi.exe ? [04:11] doug2266778822, how big is the current ntfs? [04:11] tehjesse: Can you just post the output of the drive to http://pastebin.com [04:11] llin-ubuntu, unmout them , rename the mount point and remount them === RadiantFire_ is now known as RadiantFire [04:11] Jack_Sparrow: no the ext3 i am on is almost full when i am done [04:11] amenado: it works like you installed it normally, it doesn't run in a program on windows, you select it from a menu when you boot [04:12] Thanks Pelo, i'll try that [04:12] llin-ubuntu, don'T forget t edit fstab [04:12] ozzloy-> then try, this is how we find out the effects..not a big loss if it does not work, but huge gain in knowledge [04:12] Thanks jack, it works now =D [04:12] Jack_Sparrow: it is 320-44gb so 276 give or take. [04:12] doug2266778822, I would create an extra ext3 and use it as data only. [04:12] amenado, I'm still a little fuzzy on it.. but I read something today that mentioned wubi changing the mbr.. but that wouldn't make sense if it's run inside of windows.. weird. [04:12] Scorp_-> oh, thats after you have the wubi running and then you select to install permanently..right? [04:12] the output being? [04:12] amenado: not sure what you mean [04:12] dual boot. [04:12] Ok Pelo, thanks [04:13] izinucs-> that may be after one decides to permanently install it [04:13] it's got a list of the amount of bites 255 heads, 63 sectors/track 30401 cylanders and a disk identifier [04:13] amenado, right.. [04:13] Jack_Sparrow: can we meet in a less crowded room please? im having trouble in here trying to find what u say to me. [04:13] hello, I cant seem to get JACK itself to work anymore, it claims that HW:0 is in use, which means an application is using it. Ive looked for particular processes which might use the sound card but i cant find any, and im not sure what is running to prevent JACK from starting. [04:13] doug2266778822, /join #Jack_Sparrow [04:13] Do I need to edit the fstab on every distro I have? or does the rename only happen on the distro I use to change the name with? [04:13] Scorp_-> my take is wubi is to try out while you are in windows..then if you decide to permanently install, you can -- click on the install icon? [04:13] tehjesse: Can you post all the outpu for that drive to pastebin please? [04:13] join #Jack_sparrow [04:13] amenado: No you don't try it out [04:13] When I try to start firefox, nothing happens. If I try in a terminal it says "Illegal instruction" Heeelp! [04:13] (I have 6 distros of linux installed on my computer) [04:14] doug2266778822, slash [04:14] I can't even google for an answer [04:14] just paste the all of the text? [04:14] amenado: roger [04:14] Scorp_-> are you sure? that is the purpose for having it as wubi.exe ..please read the info on that again [04:14] llin-ubuntu, it's a mountpoint thing, if you want the names to chagne in all distros , then yes [04:14] tehjesse: Yep at pastebin.com and then post the link here. [04:14] llin-ubuntu. don't worry. things will pick up for you. [04:15] amenado: the wubi installer just installs ubuntu then lets you reboot and select it from a menu [04:15] Ok, it just sounds like alot of work thats all...changing 6 diff fstabs I don't know if I really want to rename them anymore [04:15] http://pastebin.com/m31f41ee5 [04:15] llin-ubuntu, why do you have 6 distros ? [04:15] I have more than 6 but only 6 partitions :P [04:15] I like downloading linux ISO's [04:15] llin-ubuntu, why ? [04:15] hahah [04:15] The correct question is, why would you have less than 8 distros? [04:16] sighs [04:16] Scorp_-> nope, you can only run wubi.exe in windows..then after you have an ubuntu running inside a windows, then you can install..get it? [04:16] I actually have nearly 20 distro's [04:16] tehjesse: K. So it's the 250GB /dev/sdc drive right? [04:16] why does Firestarter DUMP when i minimize it ? [04:16] amenado: yeah [04:16] Pelo, sigh what [04:16] tehjesse: Did you install ntfs-3g ? [04:16] amenado: I actually got it to work once [04:16] amenado: with hardy [04:16] llin-ubuntu, kunkun http://www.zoitz.com/archives/35 [04:16] Just had to one up me, ey llin =/. [04:16] icesword, nvm [04:16] amenado: then I updated [04:16] yeah, but i didn't install ntfs-3g [04:16] amenado: and it brought me intraframs [04:17] nm. i'm blind. [04:17] lol [04:17] Noob question, if I have ubuntu 7.XX installed, when 8.XX is released, can I directly upgrade from 7.XX, or do I have to download and burn it to a cd again? [04:17] Scorp_-> when you said you got it working once, to boot directly to ubuntu after installation right? [04:17] !ntfs-3g | tehjesse [04:17] I got the same type of response in #sidux, they were like "what? just use this!" [04:17] tehjesse: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions [04:18] alo ? [04:18] amenado: yeah [04:18] kunkun: not a dumb question. [04:18] kunkun its possible, but try to enjoy the 7.10 for now [04:18] kunkun, from 7.10 to 8.04 youcan upgrade online but many prefer upgrading from the cd, you do not have to reinstall [04:18] alguem fala português ? [04:18] !br | Chico [04:18] Chico: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt para ajuda em português. Obrigado.

[04:19] kunkun, the only other release that will upgrade directly to 8.04 is 6.06, all other will only upgrade to the next distro in the line [04:19] I'm in serious trouble here.. Someone please help me get firefox working [04:19] Scorp_-> you have to check the files in /boot /boot/grub make sure they are there, what kind of error you get before getting to busybox prompt? [04:19] Chetic: try sudo aptitude reinstall firefox [04:19] equa, the compiz webpage has a plug in section [04:20] cool will check it out [04:20] llin-ubuntu-> check this out..you have six? this guy have.. http://www.justlinux.com/forum/showthread.php?t=143973 [04:20] thankssss [04:20] amenado: I'm not getting a error [04:20] is there something similar to basename but that gives the path of a file instead of the filename? [04:20] * Pelo remapped his mouse buttons earlier but he's been using the old way for 2years and he's all mess up now [04:21] Starnestommy: Didn't work!

[04:23] amenado: what are those and where is pastebin [04:23] cmatheson-> you looked at dirname ? [04:23] !pastebin | Scorp_ [04:23] Scorp_: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) [04:24] amenado: that's exactly what i'm looking for, thanks [04:24] i need some help with dual monitors.

I have two 500gb SATA drives both with data on them that I want. Is there any way to just take like 40gb away from one of them for Ubuntu? [04:25] kunkun-> they both have free spaces?

I have Hardy working with my ATI video card with acceleration with out any problems but need to install the catalyst control center. Any idea if it is part of Hardy debs or I have to install from source? [04:25] !hardy | anmar [04:25] anmar: 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 - Support in #ubuntu+1 - Come join the #ubuntu-release-party now!

I guess I need to go to the Ubuntu+ IRC room? [04:26] I've discovered an issue with nm-applet. I've searched Google but don't know specifically what to look for to see if anyone else has seen it. I have a wireless router that's not broadcasting, and it's using WEP. First I set up a code on key 2, and I can't connect. When it's set to key 1, it's fine. Any explanation there? [04:27] anmar yes my friend [04:27] VMware Server for Linux is FREE [04:27] Is the package ruby-gtk2 anywhere in the repos? [04:27] I would use that [04:27] hello, I cant seem to get JACK itself to work anymore, it claims that HW:0 is in use, which means an application is using it. Ive looked for particular processes which might use the sound card but i cant find any, and im not sure what is running to prevent JACK from starting. [04:27] ok. [04:27] tnx [04:27] np [04:27] amenado: sorry man... thanks [04:27] There are options Guided - Resize, Guided - use entire disk, Guided - use largest continuous free space, and Manual. Which do I choose to install ubuntu from a chunk of space existing on a pre-existing partition that contains files I want, but also has free space? [04:27] anmar you were not the first .. :P [04:27] amenado: I currently don't have a ubuntu install [04:27] hey guys, I need help with setting up a second display. [04:27] if you had vista you could just shrink the partitions, you can use partition magic or find a more "free" program that can do it for xp [04:27] you can also try wubi [04:28] Scorp_-> if you dont have an install, how do you expect to boot from it? [04:28] i just want to clone the display onto a projector. [04:28] kittykitty, gparted is a free non destructive partitioner for linux [04:28] anyone have a chumby here? [04:28] none of those kunkun [04:28] you can use a knoppix dvd to use gparted on a boot drive [04:28] amenado: also something that might help, the last time I tried installing hardy beta with wubi it froze while I was setting it up [04:28] and yes thats chumby not chubby [04:28] :-) [04:28] amenado: I used to have one [04:29] How can I find out the correct model # of my lcd tv for use as a second monitor? [04:29] hmmm. says vmware not for i386 [04:29] kunkun you need to have a free spaces to install, you dont want to clobber your existing windows partitions [04:29] ? ng0n? [04:29] Amenado, That's what I Ment, I want to take part of that partition and make a new one. [04:29] runs fine on 32bit ubuntu versions [04:29] Scorp_-> i cant help you with hardy, i have not tried it myself yet [04:29] ? [04:29] amenado: ok, thank you for your help gtg [04:30] kunkun, did you already save important data in your windows filesystem? [04:30] kunkun: i ran partition from CD live, i believe, and it lets you 'shrink' an NTFS partition and create a linux in the opened space. [04:30] amendo: That's inspiring, great thread thanks :D I bookmarked it [04:31] kunkun after you have save those important files, then from a liveCD you can resize the partitions on your drives, use the windows tools if possible [04:31] can anyone help me with the display clone? [04:31] llin-ubuntu-> surprising huh? 100+ distros? hehe [04:32] hehe :D and i thought i was clever having 6 distros on my pc [04:32] guitarthrasher-> not I, i only got one, anyhow you looked into xinerama? [04:32] grrr i have searched high and low and i cant find the lib i need to make psx work [04:32] hi! where could i find the previous advance topics on ubuntu forums? [04:32] that is truly inspiring [04:33] amenado-> yes. i just have an intel chipset though. [04:33] llin-ubuntu-> plus he uses combo of bsd flavors and solaris too [04:33] i dont know where to go from there. [04:33] How would I go about doing this on Windows? (Creating partitions that is.) [04:33] i just want to use a projector for a project i'm presenting. [04:33] guitarthrasher-> sorry am no help on that one.. [04:33] thanks anyway, man. i appreciate it. [04:33] i've never ventured out of debian and .rpm based distros, i've only just begun ^.^ [04:34] <__david__> can someone PLEASE help,last night my wireless was running fine,yet now the pages load soooo slow. The only major mod ive made to ubuntu since then is setting up [04:34] guitarthrasher-> doesnt the laptop have a key combo to use the external output instead of the display it has? [04:34] <__david__> setting up compizfusion [04:34] yes, but it seems to not work. [04:34] -_- [04:34] it worked fine with winblows, but not on ubuntu.. [04:34] guitarthrasher-> use a crt monitor or lcd and set it for low rez perhaps [04:35] tried that. [04:35] last time i tried hooking one up and using the gui compiz fell through along with all of the drivers. [04:35] i had to do a reinstall. [04:35] damn it i need a high gain directional antenna [04:35] hi! does any have tried the "useradd username -p password" and made the password encrypted in the /etc/shadow ? [04:35] kitty13kitty> lol [04:36] kunkun: partition magic for windows, it creates new partitions out of your larger windows partition without formatting your windows stuff, basically resizes it and makes new partitions [04:36] there moved my antanna 6 inches up, 18% better signal [04:36] kitty13kitty-> moving it up another 6 may get you 36% ? lol [04:36] lol [04:36] it's not free though :P but it does the job [04:36] no that'll put me into the cieling [04:37] anyone know where i can get libgtkglext-x11-1.0.so.0 [04:37] has the names of the next releases been decided yet? [04:37] nairb-> passwords are encrypted when stashed in /etc/shadow [04:37] anyone know why apache2 would fail to spawn yet refuses to give any errors? [04:38] hy [04:38] what was the name of the disk fragmentation package? [04:38] i have every libgtkglext in synaptic and psx still says i dont have the lib [04:38] kitty13kitty-> you looked at its config file ..process limits? [04:38] Another question, I have been looking into alternatives for running XP on Ubuntu, and QEMU appeared, anyone ever use that / is it the best FREE choice? [04:38] Shadow420-> chkdisk in windows [04:39] kunkun qemu would be the best choice for easy setup and use [04:39] kunkun-> did we not suggest vmware and virtualbox? [04:39] no cause i am trying to follow the lamp instructions since i'm to stoopid to figure it out for myself and its a 'fresh' install [04:39] menado:im using ubuntu 7.10 server edition and when i execute the command "useradd username -p password" the password is not encrypted in /etc/shadow [04:39] amenado for ubntu? [04:39] amenado:im using ubuntu 7.10 server edition and when i execute the command "useradd username -p password" the password is not encrypted in /etc/shadow [04:39] yes [04:39] kitty13kitty: hello [04:40] Sorry amenado, I must have missed it. VMware or Virtualbox > QEMU? In your opinion? [04:40] nairb really? thats news to me [04:40] kunkun you can also try WUBI [04:40] kunkun-> this is not a survey room, depends on your requirements [04:41] amenado: i just installed it recently, and havent configured much [04:41] Hi everyone, could you guys tell me if there is a limewire equivalent for ubuntu? I am sorta in a hurry, but anything is great, thanks [04:41] OPINION WANTED: whats the best Mac OS X dock clone for linux (gnome) [04:41] amenado the disk defrag program for ubntu? [04:41] Kitty13Kitty, is that not for XP? I'm talking about Ubuntu clients. [04:41] amenado: or im not doing the correct syntax? [04:41] !wubi [04:41] wubi is Wubi advice here: http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=234 and http://wubi-installer.org [file wubi bugs here: https://launchpad.net/wubi/+filebug ] (it is included in hardy 8.04 beta CD and will be in the final release) [04:41] Hi everyone, could you guys tell me if there is a limewire equivalent for ubuntu? I am sorta in a hurry, but anything is great, thanks [04:41] nairb-> its adduser not useradd [04:42] hey is the zope3 package horribly broken or what? [04:42] amenado: like a useradd username -p -password? [04:42] Auctionedllama | !frostwire [04:42] Shadow420-> off course not, thats why i said windows :) [04:42] thanks, i'll try that [04:42] !frostwire [04:42] frostwire is a totally open source version of Limewire. For installation help, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FrostWire [04:42] !frostwire | Auctionedllama [04:42] Nice, thanks mate [04:42] nairb please man adduser [04:42] I want to install XP ON Ubuntu, not Ubuntu on XP. [04:43] amenado: thanks [04:43] which os are you running right now kunkun? [04:43] kunkun then u need qemu, virtualbox or vmware [04:44] kunkun: i would recommend virtualbox. it has a seamless mode that blends your windows desktop and your ubuntu desktop together [04:44] hmmm. installed an ap but it not on any menus. [04:44] what is virtual box, exactly? is it similar to wine or no? [04:44] Auctionedllama: it's a virtual machine [04:44] Does anyone here run Hamachi, and if so how do I install it? [04:44] Alright [04:44] virtualbox is a virtual machine application. it uses software to emulate a full computer [04:45] O yes, and one more question, on compiz, the 3d cube.. is it possible to have differnt desktop pictures on each face of the cube, and/or have different icons? Thanks [04:45] I am having trouble setting up subversion/webdav and I am getting an error I don't know enough about to correct [04:45] Where's a good channel to get windows support? specifically, BSOD caused by a new mobo and cpu (not bad hardware, it just won't boot once i installed the new hardware) [04:45] Ok, I have PartitionMagic open, and made a 100gig partition. What filesystem do I want to use on linux? NTSF? Fat32? [04:45] virtualbox emulates everything from your processor, motherboard, optical drives, floppy drives, NIC, USB, and everything up to your video card. [04:45] dmsuperman: ##windows [04:45] Starnestommy, thanks :D [04:45] I know linux is virus free for the most part, but if using frotwire will there be a chance for any virus? [04:45] O yes, and one more question, on compiz, the 3d cube.. is it possible to have differnt desktop pictures on each face of the cube, and/or have different icons? Thanks [04:45] dmsuperman, you can PM me and i'll try to help you, or you can join ##windows as Starnestommy mentioned [04:45] dmsuperman hal.dll error? [04:45] I am having trouble setting up subversion/webdav and I am getting an error I don't know enough about to correct: "Dav is not allowed here" [04:45] *frostwire === quaaltp is now known as quaal [04:46] prettyricky, you can possible download windows virii, yes, but they will have no affect on your linux machine. i would still check them if you move them to a windows box [04:46] prettyricky the chance for a linux virus is very low [04:46] kitty13kitty, I'll PM you? Don't wanna get in trouble... [04:46] ok just curious, cause I know limewire is pretty bad I rather use newsgroups [04:47] thanks guys! [04:47] dmsuperman: run repair from WINDOWS CD. [04:47] prettyricky, to my understanding, any linux "virus" must be run with root powers to do any serious damage. and i find it unlikely that you will be downloading anything in frostwire that you will run as root in linux ;) [04:47] probably won't work. but might. [04:47] * zelrikriando cant wait until the 24th Oo [04:47] if its the hal.dll error i'm thinking of, running the repair cd won't fix snot [04:48] i hate the hal.dll error [04:48] how come ubuntu freeze when I did not use it for awhile?? [04:48] How can you run a repair? I only know about the recovery console, where you can copy files from disc to hdd [04:48] kidz, you using the suspend/hibernate features in powermanagement? [04:48] dmsuperman. boot from win CD.. select repair function. [04:48] no [04:48] I disabled all that [04:49] ng0n, I've never had that option :s [04:49] kidz, sounds like it was X. did the entire machine actually freeze? did u try a tty? [04:49] dmsuperman. sorry. can't offer more. reinstall. [04:49] dmsuperman, did you "install a new hd" and moved your windows partitions farther back in the boot sequence, what is the actuall error? [04:49] kidz i dont know either, the Xorg taking up nearly 99% of cpu also makes your system freeze [04:50] what is the command to see all the drives on your comp? [04:50] kitty13kitty, I can't see the error, it reboots the second it BSOD's. and no, hard drives are the same, in the same order, only thing different is mobo and cpu [04:50] doug2266778822-> man fdisk [04:50] mobo and CPU often require format and re-install of OS [04:50] dmsuperman, did you try it in safe mode yet? [04:50] amenado: thanks [04:50] the entire thing did freeze. and whats that Xorg and tty thing? [04:50] kitty13kitty, also bsod [04:50] doug2266778822-> also man man to familiarize yourself with man pages [04:51] kidz may i suggest a tutorial on how to use linux? [04:51] that would be nice [04:51] i wodner if the reason it says it doesnt exist is because the file in the /usr/lib folder looks like a symlink or something [04:51] dmsuperman, tried putting it back in the old mobo/cpu just for kicks? [04:51] cuz this is my first day/time using ubuntu [04:52] kitty13kitty, I would rather just reinstall if that were the case...honestly i'm not too worried about windows working, i only use it for games [04:52] dmsuperman: do a back up. format. reinstall OS. then migrate in aps. [04:53] ng0n, I only have 3 games, hamachi, and pidgin installed, so it's not overly difficult. only thing is I'm not sure where supreme commander saves it's saved games and that's the only thing i really want to back up [04:53] kidz a good one is from free-electrons.com http://free-electrons.com/training/intro_unix_linux [04:53] ng0n, I've saved a game right in the perfect spot to fully test my new mobo and cpu haha [04:53] dmsuperman: i just did a MB, Chip. All i had to do on Ubuntu was re-run the X setup. but in Vista - no go. kaput [04:53] dmsuperman, if you do big system changes like motherboard/video card, xp will complain that you're trying to pirate it across several boxes, but it normally doesn't bsod, if it doesn't work in the old comp, just re-install. if it does, then remove drivers like a bandit and try again [04:53] ng0n, yeah, ubuntu works fine. I didn't have to change a thing haha. winblows is lame lol [04:53] can anyone help me try and suss out this dependency problem i am having? trying to get pSX working and even though i haev installed the paclage that is supposed to have the library it says is missing it still says it is missing [04:53] with Vista cd you can 'repair'.. but it didn't work. [04:53] thx amenado [04:54] I guess my only option is to reinstall then [04:54] If i install hardy heron RC, will i be able to just update to the current release ? [04:54] kidz you're welcome [04:54] dmsuperman: it's ok to do it the easy way. [04:54] every once in a while. [04:54] can someone help me get flash playing in firefox on ubuntu? [04:54] dmsuperman, if you just reinstall over the old install (like you're doing an upgrade/repair) it keeps all your old settings anyways [04:54] yowshi-> you compiled it yourself? [04:54] dmsuperman are you saying you have xp and ubuntu dual booting on the same pc and ubuntu will boot fine ? [04:55] Fdisk93, yeah, new mobo and cpu and windows now gets a BSOD [04:55] b1n0ry-> you have googled for a how to on that have you? [04:55] kitty13kitty, sweet, thanks [04:55] yep [04:55] amenado: duh, yeah [04:55] and the dual boot ?? [04:55] amenado: no the file i downloaded was just an executable but it wont run says i dont have the lib i need [04:55] ubuntu boots ok [04:55] dmsuperman, just don't let it format/partition your windows drive [04:55] Fdisk93, Ubuntu works fine, grub works fine, and windows works up til the load screen, it shows the laod screen then BSOD [04:55] ya. same here. dual boot. only had to run Xsetup to make Ubuntu run. [04:55] booted off of grub. [04:55] kitty13kitty, alright, I'll try that if I can't figure this out :D [04:55] b1n0ry-> duh, and did you follow it step by step? [04:56] amenado: i got the copy of psx from http://psxemulator.gazaxian.com/ [04:56] i tried installing the gnash package. video is either corrupted (just a black irregular box with controls) or loads perpetually [04:56] man I hope I don't have to roll another windows cd for these sata drivers, i'm not sure how to do that without windows to begin with [04:56] so i tried installing adobe shockwave flash player from the website, installed fine, i see it in plugins but it never loads (never even shows a spot where it should be) [04:56] amenado: thank u [04:56] yowshi-> thats the problem sometimes, if it was not compiled on similar kernel as what you are running [04:56] and I really don't want to take this case back apart, I finally got all the cables going how i like it and it's tucked away [04:56] whats the runtime for apache2, is it apache2 or a2 ? [04:56] and no, i don't have them enabled at the same time [04:56] kitty13kitty, apache2 i believe [04:57] doug2266778822-> anytime..i know its a lil extra work, but you will get the hang of the man pages [04:57] amenado: grrr well hmmmm you kow where i can get the source code by any chance or where i would start looking and please dotn say google [04:57] I need help with setting up Apache, SSL, SVN. I have it all setup but i am getting 403 forbidden errors when i try to import in the form of svn: MKACTIVITY of 'svn/test/!svn/act/[arbitrary string of numbers/letters]. [04:57] well i'm off to probably reinstall, thanks guys [04:57] b1n0ry-> gnash seems to be a pile of junk, try to use adobe at least i know it works [04:57] *making a paste of configuration now* [04:57] if ubuntu is booting fine it sounds like a device driver problem in xp at boot time i had the same problem after a cpu mb upgrade [04:58] I'm trying to install a program and it's telling me to run the "make" command, but when I enter it in the terminal it says that there's no such command. [04:58] Fdisk93, I know, I just didn't know how to fix that [04:58] yowshi-> well google is your friend, he knows where pxemulator hids their stuff :p [04:58] nerdparty do this: find / -type f -name "make" -print [04:58] nerdparty, you'll need the build packages [04:58] it was easyer to back then do a clean install but dont overwrite partitions you wanna save data on [04:59] yowshi-> if not google, there is yahoo, plenty of search engines out there [04:59] amenado: yeah problem is that i dont know what to use to narrow it down. if i use psx source code linux i will get 5 mill entries and only 5 have what i want [04:59] I don't understand. I'm told to type "make install" in the terminal, how do I build packages or whatever? [04:59] i installed startupmanager and changed my usplash screen, but now everytime i go to restart the ubuntu logo is hideous. can some tell me how to reset it back to default === user__ is now known as unop [05:00] amenado: i did follow directions, sorta. problem was after 'sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree' it said to do 'sudo update-flashplugin' but i got 'sudo: update-flashplugin: command not found' [05:00] yowshi-> we all go throug it, patience man ..patience [05:00] is there a keyboard shortcut to open gnome panel menu [05:00] i'm having issues using the mouse [05:00] b1n0ry-> update-flashplugin is not in the command list i looked at [05:01] amenado: the beauty of GOOGLE, try to get the same set of search results 2 days in a row ;) [05:01] b1n0ry-> type update then press tab twice [05:01] b1n0ry-> you can pay for those special databases if you dislike google..what you say? [05:02] i just installed a program. can't find it anywhere ? [05:02] bz029: It gives me a long list of what looks like commands, each one says permission denied. [05:02] peepsalot: ALT+F1 [05:02] uggg. not in usr/bin or usr/bin/x11 [05:02] thank you patifa [05:02] I set it to Super L ;) === Black_Magic_ is now known as iMatter [05:03] anyone have a clue on how to fix my issue? === ce_luvy is now known as sMiLe [05:03] Hey. Is there anyway I can slow my network down intetionally? I want to test a file upload to a web server, but it goes way too fast! [05:04] rixth_: I wish I had that problem... [05:04] rixth_-> scratching halt slow? [05:04] amenado, well, at the moment, I'm trying to upload a 5mb picture, and it takes a split second. I want to actually see the upload process. [05:05] So essentially, I want to throttle HTTP traffic to localhost [05:05] rixth_-> okay pull out and dust your ole 56kbps modem...get ready.. :) [05:05] rixth_ you could try wondershaper or something [05:05] hehe [05:05] thanks patifa I'll look into it [05:05] did you know, alt-z makes your text go backwards in most irc clients? [05:05] .ereh ti did I ?eeS [05:05] amenado: alright, seems to be working now [05:06] b1n0ry-> okay excellent.. [05:06] amenado: apparently just having gnash disabled wasn't enough. had to sudo apt-get remove gnash [05:06] You won't get the exact same performance as, say, ye ole 56K, as conditions aren't quite so clean-cut as the raw bandwidth limitation [05:06] one day to go... [05:06] b1n0ry-> yeah gnash is not there yet.. [05:07] exit [05:07] For reference, rixth_, the command to wondershaper _should_ be sudo wondershaper eth0 downkbits upkbits [05:07] rixth why do you need to do that? doesn't the upload work no matter the speed? [05:07] Where eth0 could also be wlan0 if you're on wireless, for example, or crazier things if you're using VPN. [05:08] patifa, it's broken in hardy =( there's a bug at launchpad [05:08] rixth_-> what are you after really? [05:08] amenado, I need to slow my upload speed to localhost [05:08] rixth_-> to do what? you want to monitor traffic? [05:09] pah i think i will just use epsxe it is one i know and like [05:09] you could hop on a bittorrent and saturate your connection [05:09] just didnt think there was a nix version hehehe === Administrator_ is now known as AEON [05:09] yowshi-> there you go, google is so friendly huh? :P [05:09] That won't help llin-ubuntu, you'd have to tax the living daylights out of the CPU to stall out the kernel's networking activity. [05:09] how do i reset my /boot/grub/menu.lst to default ? [05:09] what do you guys use for a messenger client?.. pidgin? [05:09] amenado: yeah but i still -didnt- find what i -was looking- for [05:10] devin_-> no such thing as default [05:10] I couldn't get pidgin to do IRC worth a darn, ToddEDM. But it's not bad for everything else. [05:10] amenado, I'm making a file uploader that has a progress bar [05:10] amenado but files upload too fast for the bar to appear [05:10] patifa: im using pidgin, it works ok for IRC, except changing servers [05:11] rixth_-> look into netcat, it has so many options, perhaps one of them is to slow it down, piping it to a file, etcetera [05:11] rixth_ is your server on the internet or is it local? [05:11] llin-ubuntu, local [05:11] anyone use anything else besides pidgin? [05:11] rixth_ if you can, try to access your webserver with though something besides localhost. I'm not even sure what would happen if you limit the localhost bandwidth using wondershaper. [05:11] llinbada [05:11] oh :D i thought you just have an extremely awesome connection at home [05:11] rixth_-> oh yeah, trying it on localhost is futile, transfer it to another puter.. [05:12] Which is also why he can't saturate the localhost loop using bittorrent ;) [05:12] ToddEDM, I use aMSN because it supports webcams [05:12] Ack, okay [05:12] rixth_: does it work good? [05:12] ToddEDM, I like it [05:12] It's MSN only, though [05:12] yeah thats ok [05:12] cool [05:13] rixth_: stupid question, but why don't you try it with like a 500mb file that should slow it down [05:13] megeria, hmm great idea [05:13] wow, 2 hours for this upgrade to hardy to finish.... [05:14] yeah [05:14] You upgrading to RC? Hardy isn't out till Thursday correct? [05:14] yup [05:14] i'm torrenting it to a CD :P [05:14] i like kopete and pidgin, and xchat and konversation [05:14] Torrents are just he way to go [05:14] i wonder if my firewall is working... [05:14] grrrr epsxe doesnt wanna coorperate either only this time i aint getting any error messages [05:14] i am never going to get to enjoy ff7 ever again am i [05:15] how extract file *.so.tar.gz ?? [05:15] pisca: try "tar xzf *.so.tar.gz" [05:15] pisca: to extract a tar.gz, open it with the archive manager or with "tar -xzf filename.tar.gz" [05:17] amenado, patifa, using wondershaper on lo worked fine [05:17] Though it will probably have some weird side effects [05:17] cool rixth_ so did your progress bar work? [05:18] uit [05:18] Appears to be, the client will be pleased [05:18] Thats good =) [05:20] Is there a command line way to get a list of packages installable through apt-get? [05:20] apt-cache search [package] [05:20] DanikarPN: To simply list them all? [05:20] DanikarPN: sudo apt-get install (tab twice) [05:20] Cpudan80: i'd like to redirect them to a file. So yes. [05:20] does apt-cache search * work? [05:21] Cpudan80: I tried that, it just listed the same thing sudo apt-get (tab twice) does. Ill try apt-cache though. Thanks bz029 [05:21] What type of file sytem do I want Ubuntu to be running on? [05:21] kunkun: probably ext3 [05:21] kunkun: the default (ext3) [05:21] hey is there a way in dual-view mode to keep the moitors discrete? [05:21] Thank you [05:22] petes256: How do you mean? [05:22] right now when I hit to fullscreen a window it takes up both monitors [05:22] and I want it just to fill the window that it is in [05:22] Can you install Ubuntu directly onto a NTFS or Fat parition? === suso is now known as bb-X_ === bb-X_ is now known as bb-X [05:23] ....I think I made xchat really angry.

[05:30] can't [05:30] sorry [05:31] megeria: haha, well, more like "rebuild" one. :) my laptop screen just died - it was kind of flickering for since yesterday, and today, it died. if i shine a light on the lcd just so, i can still barely make out stuff, so it seems to me that it's either the CCFL bulb or the inverter, since the lcd itself is working just fine. the question is: how do i know whether its the ccfl itself that's bad, or the inverter? this is a dell in [05:31] spiron 5150, by the way. [05:31] im wondering if i might have to reinstall some libraries or something [05:31] chris_420: "apt-cache nfk" only gives me the result "libcamomile-ocaml-dev - Unicode library for OCaml", and I thought it is not that I wanted.

[05:42] Krzzzz sudo dpkg --reconfigure -a in apps->accessories->terminal [05:42] im sort of a noob but what other way can you run the network if not through interfaces? [05:42] drivetrax #compiz-fusion [05:42] thks [05:42] ok heres the problem that i have after i run that in terminal [05:42] olge /media/cdromX or something for a try?

[05:43] i never installed those packages so im kinda baffled [05:43] crweb you mean just gnome itsself? [05:43] chris_420 networkmanager works without /etc/network/interfaces, raises and drops networking as the user comes on line (with nm-applet). That's about all I really know, you can watch it in action with tail -f /var/log/syslog, and plugging and unplugging an ethernet cable for exampe [05:43] ill try it [05:43] crweb apt-get install gnome [05:43] hey - is anyone here good with video drivers? I just bought a new LG 22 inch widescreen and I want to install it - but the screen isnt showing up in the drivers section... anyone got any answers for me? [05:44] AHHH [05:44] sweet [05:44] ? [05:44] gogeta: says that it won't install because gnome-desktop-environment isn't going to be installed [05:44] im also using NM figured they all went through interfaces haha [05:44] Krzzzz thats part of you kernel, and a very unusual kernel. It's not the standard ubuntu one [05:44] So, i tried to install it and it said can't install cause gnome-keyring-manager isn't installable. [05:44] crweb: well there you have it [05:44] ^_^ [05:44] UBUNTU, followed guide for APACHE, SSL, SVN. I am getting a 403 forbidden error, but my permissions appear to be correct. PLEASE HELP! Here is the PASTEBIN: http://www.pastebin.ca/994161 [05:44] anyone familiar with windowmaker ? [05:45] why can't i find a program i just installed ? [05:45] milia, sorry not familiar [05:45] yeah i never installed that i actually running with the generic one right now [05:45] crweb gnome-desktop-environment is a debianism, you should be installing ubuntu-desktop instead [05:45] it shows installed. [05:45] gogeta: go on down the list and its going to have me type each one in. [05:45] k, thanx bz029 [05:45] nickrud: i don't want ubuntu-desktop. I want all of gnome [05:45] is there any way to bypass that error/.? [05:45] hey, quick question: what's the name of the software that allows you to make a deb from a sh script, I'm drawing a blank [05:45] What is a Device for oot loader installation? It says its (hd0) [05:45] crweb ubuntu desktop gives you all of 'gnome' , you can add apps as you need otherwise [05:45] boot* [05:46] http://www.elijahlofgren.com/ubuntu/ [05:46] nickrud: so ubuntu-desktop installs every gnome distributed package? [05:46] Krzzzz not easily. I don't know anything about that kernel at all [05:46] brent113: checkinstall ? [05:46] yea, that's it, thanks [05:46] sudo apt-get install gnome [05:46] thats the thing i dont have that installed [05:46] that should work [05:46] its weird [05:46] hey all [05:46] gogeta: which says gnome-desktop-environment isn't installable so gnome wont' install. already said that [05:47] crweb whatever you do decide to do, don't use gnome-desktop-environment package. That's all I wanted to be clear about since it has some dependencies that ubuntu doesn't track properly. [05:47] crweb yea but it shouldent say that [05:47] UBUNTU, followed guide for APACHE, SSL, SVN. I am getting a 403 forbidden error, but my permissions appear to be correct. PLEASE HELP! Here is the PASTEBIN: http://www.pastebin.ca/994161 [05:47] JNK YOU FRIGGIN ROCK DUDE [05:47] gogeta: well, one would think not.. I'll paste bin it [05:47] gogeta and don't use gnome either ;) [05:48] nickrud: i'm not looking for ubuntu-desktop. I want all of gnome. like installing kde, and kde4 [05:48] there's a few packages that the debian developers maintain for creating environments. So DONT USE THEM! [05:48] < one thing must of slipped my mind haha/// the other day it slipped my mind that metall blocks wireless communications haha and was having trouble connecting wirelessly haha [05:48] Hello - I've been ssh-ing into my ubuntu box for a while now and tonight i tried to log into the GUI here and got this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64068/ [05:48] Can anyone help please??? It's very important that I get this box running again [05:49] crweb by 'gnome', what are you thinking of? try apt-cache show ubuntu-desktop, what's not there that you want? [05:49] hommeentete, i see such a message for my first time (but i'm not an old user so..) [05:50] nickrud gnome ownez you [05:50] alright ya'll im out to watch a cheech and chong movie haha.... [05:50] peace [05:50] :P [05:50] milia, what do you mean? [05:50] i know long ago gnome was considered more stable than kde, but is that still true? [05:50] gogeta heh. Then it's been cleaned up recently. I've fixed many boxes here where people installed that [05:50] hommeentete, sorry, i meant i can't really help you with that:X [05:51] thyko: depends on who you ask :) [05:51] hommeentete sudo chmod 1777 /tmp , then try again [05:51] nickrud my ubuntu gnome box = working fine [05:51] therealnanotube: whats your opinioin? [05:51] hommeentete: It says you dont have permissions on tmp [05:51] I don't know why it would change after it's worked for so long [05:52] hommeentete: Login to the root console (failsafe) and do cd /; ls -l | grep tmp --- paste the output [05:52] nickrud: ubuntu-desktop is only the gnome apps ubuntu sees fit to be default installed. [05:52] nickrud if anything the kubutnu disk i download had alot of issues [05:52] hommeentete: Could also be bad permissions on your home dir [05:52] hi all, how do I get kpartx on ubuntu feisty? [05:52] crweb no, only the default ones (the ones that will fit on a cd) . All others are available from the repos [05:52] thyko: well, i use gnome just because i like gnome's panels better... but i've never had either kde or gnome crash on me... in recent memory, so i think they are both stable. (back in the old days of kde 1.x, yea, kde was pretty unstable when i tried it... :) ) [05:52] Well I did edit the permissions of my home directory [05:53] nickrud: which is exactly what i'm saying [05:53] nickrud: i want ALL of gnome not just the default [05:53] kde and kd4 provide meta packages to install all of kde, not just kubuntu-desktop [05:53] crweb thats all apps and wm gdm [05:53] megeria: so, i found the dell tech manual for taking apart the lcd: http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/ins5100/en/sm/display.htm but i don't see specific mention of the ccfl or the inverter - where are they located, generally speaking, do you know? [05:54] ubuntu-desktop not full ? [05:54] i see plenty of gnome-* packages that are not installed [05:54] crweb neither does gnome-desktop-environment. There's many apps that are not included in that also [05:54] hommeentete: Should be owned by you - and 700 at least [05:54] Hi, was trying to clean up my trash but cannot do so because it says "Error while deleting. need permission... " Do i have to use root permission? and why? [05:54] hmm, gnome it is [05:54] then apt-get install *gnome* [05:54] hommeentete: 755 is preferred [05:54] Cpudan80 1777 is correct for /tmp [05:54] nickrud: who said anything about gnome-deskto-environment [05:55] nickrud: ah right - sorry [05:55] nickrud, i just tried your suggestion and it looks like it's working so far [05:55] crweb ubuntu does not come with every app installed it would not fit on a cd [05:55] i'm not complaining about it _I KNOW) [05:55] i said, apt-get install gnome won't let me install because it says gnome-desktop-enviroment is not installable [05:55] but isn't 1777 permissions rwx for owner user and other? [05:55] You won't skip anything then. [05:55] UBUNTU, followed guide for APACHE, SSL, SVN. I am getting a 403 forbidden error, but my permissions appear to be correct. PLEASE HELP! Here is the PASTEBIN: http://www.pastebin.ca/994167 [05:55] crweb those packges are just a online installer of the cd [05:55] therealnanoetube: assuming that the panel use ccfl probably in the panel, i can't imagine them putting on the case since it makes switching supplier harder [05:55] holy crap... [05:56] i know how gnome works, and how ubuntu works, been using it since 2003 [05:56] bz029 : see /var/log/apache2/access.log or error.log [05:56] please read the problem [05:56] crweb then why you asking lol [05:56] megeria: well, i guess i'll just have to dig in and jiggle the juicy insides and see what happens... :) [05:56] i said, apt-get install gnome won't let me install because it says gnome-desktop-enviroment is not installable [05:56] crweb been linux sence 1996 [05:56] WHY is this happening?! 'Executing 'grub-install (hd0) failed. This is a fatal error.' [05:56] bz029: it might be the "Require valid-user" directive. Comment it out [05:56] is there a way to disable the GDM splashscreen all together so it goes from gdm straight to my desktop ? [05:56] crweb so do I. And, again I suggest you not try to install debian metapackages. === NDPTAL86 is now known as NDPTAL85 [05:57] clear [05:57] lol opps [05:57] devin_ you mean, without having to log in? [05:57] wow, slashdot wasn't joking. this is about useless. I'll just go ask around kubuntu. thanks. [05:57] jjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj [05:57] thyko: if you want to make a decision based on more that just one random guy's opinion... search the web for kde vs gnome comparisons - you'll find quite a few. :) but generally, i'd say you can't go very wrong with either one. [05:58] grub-install /dev/sda OR grub-install /dev/sdaX (some partition) [05:58] therealnanotube: did you look at http://www.kingsway.de/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=20&Itemid=50 i know its for a thinkpad but the panel isn't design by dell so it may be of use [05:58] nickrud no i want to be able to login. i just don't need a splash screen before i login [05:58] devin_ splash screen? you mean usplash, the ugly moving orange bar? [05:59] edit /boot/grub/menu.lst wrapped out 'splash' [05:59] exit [05:59] gogeta: that was a serious thanks for taking sometime btw. [05:59] err, some time [05:59] lol [05:59] :join #debian [05:59] thanks all! [06:00] nickrud not the loading usplash after grub. if thats what you meant [06:00] crweb dunno what else to say i dont knoe any compleate installers any distro [06:00] megeria: wow, that link looks very useful, thanks! i didn't come across it because i was trying dell-specific searches, but this is nice. thanks! [06:00] crweb you just get what you whant [06:00] devin_ I'm trying to think of what splash you see. Mine goes straight to the login screen [06:00] crweb after [06:00] gogeta: well you are right, it usually works just installing gnome [06:01] crweb well ubuntu-desktop does that [06:01] thenanotube: thank wikipedia lol [06:01] therealnanotube: did that already, most of them favour gnome [06:01] where do i go to get help with fusion ? [06:01] doug2266778822 #compiz-fusion [06:02] i find it funny kde can manage this with its kde and kde4 meta packages ;), I'll go with ubuntu-desktop and then manually add everything to my install script i'm missing. [06:02] thyko: heh ic :) [06:02] nickrud: thanks [06:02] crweb kde kde4 are diffrent being the support for them seprated [06:03] no no, i just mean you can install "all of kde" with 1 meta package, but it can't be done with gnome well. [06:03] nickrud idk, theres just a splash screen after i log on that takes a split second it shows stuff loading then it takes me to my desktop [06:03] crweb yea thats why [06:03] crweb you can file a wishlist bug for an ubuntu metapackage that would pull in a larger subset of gnome apps, or better yet put it on brainstorm.com [06:03] megeria: here's a helpful tip back to you: your irc client can autocomplete usernames if you start typing and press tab. (i notice you are misspelling my username, so you must not be using autocomplete :) ) at least xchat can, i bet most other clients can too. [06:03] megeria: what wikipedia article did you look at? [06:03] gogeta: ah, i see [06:03] devin_ ah, the gnome splash screen. A sec [06:03] nickrud: isn't it kind of dangerous to have packages in a repo you are not suppose to install? [06:03] what triaged bug status mean? [06:03] crweb we only had kubuntu-desktop befor kde4 as well [06:04] crweb yup [06:04] How do I change a single icon to something else on my desktop, under Gnome? [06:04] therealnanotube: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_cathode and ya tab completion works in irssi just not bothering to use it sometimes lol [06:04] nickrud yeah, i just want it to go from gdm to my desktop. no splash or solid color or anything like that, if that be possible? [06:05] devin_ gconf-editor /apps/gnome-session/options/show_splash_screen [06:05] gogeta: come to think of it, i remeber that now [06:05] been using 8.04 for to long [06:05] devin_ you'll have the solid color since that's provided by gdm until the desktop gets rendered [06:05] devin_ yea just remove splash but then you gonna get lots of nice text untill gdm loads :) [06:05] megeria: heh nice, thanks for your help! i hope i don't screw anything up too badly - but with the photo guide, i think i should be ok. [06:06] therealnanotube: well gl [06:06] xngear someone reviewed the bug and made sure it was usable, and applied to the correct package [06:06] anyone wanna tell me if webserver @ 207.224.100.147 is visible? [06:07] megeria: by the way, just to share back: i got some help in the ##hardware channel: someone suggested that if tapping on the display/machine causes at least a temporary revival, it's more likely the inverter, if not, it's more likely the ccfl. i'll try that too... [06:07] nickrud: thanks [06:07] brb [06:07] kitty13kitty: , yes [06:07] kitty13kitty: yes [06:08] hai all [06:08] any gamers here?

[06:09] !ask | lekremyelsew [06:09] lekremyelsew: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) [06:09] nickrud i prefer a bit faster then a slow eye candy system [06:10] nickrud: hey im not askin to ask question [06:10] nickrud hell i go text just for fun [06:10] How do I go about changing a single icon on my desktop to something else under Gnome? [06:10] * mneptok goes postal [06:10] lekremyelsew: post the type/model of your controller - that would be a more useful question :) [06:10] is it possible to make it so that I do not have to type in my password every time i wish to run something as root? [06:10] gogeta I've been using gnome since 1.0.56 (the first really stable version) and have sampled kde. I just like the philosophy of 'just works' without tinkering, myself [06:11] nickrud text always works [06:11] x cant freez then [06:11] lekremyelsew a shorthand for 'I have no idea, since I don't know what you're trying to do' ;) [06:11] lol [06:11] twistage: right click on it, select properties, then in the basic tab, click on the current icon, an dyou can select a new one. [06:11] therealnanotube: bah, thanks. im an idiot [06:12] therealnanotube: its a Microsoft SideWinder DualStrike [06:12] nickrud bitchx links gaim-text [06:12] twistage: we all sometimes overlook the obvious :) [06:12] nickrud and mplayer [06:12] gogeta there's a version for everyone. That's what's nice. But, we're a bit off topic for #ubuntu ;) [06:13] lekremyelsew: well, i'm not a joystick-wielding gamer myself (nor really a mouse and kb wielding gamer anymore, either...), so i can't help you with the actual setup. but maybe someone else can step in. ;) [06:13] can anyone help me get google earth working? [06:13] nickrud: oh i still have my full gui install i just stop gdm sometimes for fun [06:15] Microsoft SideWinder DualStrike controller, does anyone know how to set one up? [06:15] gogeta: instead of stopping, you could just switch to another vty. unless you really need the freed-up ram... :) [06:15] <_aeGIs> does anyone have a free shell account? [06:15] my hostname is weird all of a sudden after a reboot... its subdomain.domain.com.domain.com instead of subdomain.domain.com in all emails... anyone know how to fix this? [06:16] _aeGIs, I do somewhere, I dont know where or the details. [06:16] sorry i asked but what room for fusion help again?

[06:17] Alives then it's sendmail (shudder). #ubuntu-server might be able to help, or find the sendmail channel [06:17] hmm [06:17] ok thanks [06:17] <_aeGIs> h00k: that's what I'm finding... it's painful!

[06:26] doug2266778822 yeah, having gnome place disks in /media on your desktop is pretty nice, but it can be misleading :) [06:26] hello where can i find a leaked copy of 8.04 final [06:26] :) [06:26] megeria, torrent site, and I don't know of any hex editors in linux. I'm still pretty new.

[07:00] Quick question, I'm going to reformat in a couple of days(Currently have 7.10, going to put either 7.10/8.04 and WinXP Pro on). What are the major differences between 8.04 and 7.10? Also, does it normally go *.04, *.10 for version numbers(And why does it?) [07:01] so...anyone..since the topic now is more on compiz... [07:01] chronos install seahorse, then run it. your passwords are on the password tab [07:01] timsandtoms: the version number is the date. Year.Month [07:01] shthap3ns, maybe this'll give you a start - it's not complete or comprehensive, but you can always extrapolate - http://howtoforge.com/perfect_server_ubuntu7.10 [07:01] crdlb: Ah, never noticed that! Thanks. [07:01] hello ..

[07:02] crdlb: Do you happen to know what the differences are in the new version? [07:03] unop: oh, i meant if i wanted to get more information, maybe a post on the forums might be better than IRC? === marrk_ is now known as marrk [07:04] shthap3ns, sure, but before you do that, you might want to point google at the ubuntu forums, there's bound to be people who have already done something like what you have done - just to avoid some duplicity [07:04] east coast in da house ! [07:04] duplicity? you don't mean the forums re duplicious do you? [07:05] Coupla questions: What are the major differences between 7.10 and 8.04? I don't know much about Linux, but is there anything your average Joe Ipod would notice? Also, whats a good MSN messenger with webcam support(Mostly just receiving cams) [07:05] unop: will do, thanks [07:06] nickrud, ohh no, they're kinda well structured with all kinds of revision control, bug-trackers, etc :) j/k [07:06] unop ah, you mean like the rest of the web.

[08:09] choices? [08:09] JPSman: newer has a security update so there is no significant difference. [08:09] Well, if it's a choice between a kernel and the same kernel with (recovery mode), it's the 'same engine' [08:09] dystopianray: right, and since it's probably set to be released in less than 36 hours, if there is any significant difference between the daily build and the 'official' release === __Siftin_Com is now known as [Siftin]Com [08:10] Sorsis: there is for my internet connection :OD 2.6.24 is really buggy with wireless drivers. Yet 2.6.22 has failed with my graphics card [08:10] khaije1: i suspect their won't be, unless there is another build made, which i doubt [08:10] On the other hand, Guillaum, if it's a completely different version, the engine analogy is quite decent. === [Siftin]Com is now known as [Siftin] [08:11] khaije1: - if you dont coun't the security fixes ;) [08:11] khaije1: for the last two releases i've downloaded the latest daily builds before the official releases, and they have been identical to the final isos (same md5) and i avoided the slow mirrors on release day [08:11] I'm really not used to gnome but how do i check to see what broadcom card i have === Gigamo_ is now known as Gigamo [08:11] dystopianray: that sounds pretty good to me [08:11] Oh, we can update straight to the new version of Ubuntu from the previous version yes?

[08:16] yeah thats another thing [08:16] dystopianray: i dont mean to be juvenile, but it's true nonetheless [08:16] can you just upgrade?

[09:30] hey guys, should i download all the links found here for AWN? http://www.getdeb.net/release.php?id=2311 [09:31] rinovan: what is the exact error message? [09:31] zerlneo I recommend going to http://wiki.awn-project.org/DistributionGuides and following the Testing Package instructions [09:31] libc6: Depends: tzdata but it is not installable [09:31] libc6-i686: PreDepends: libc6 (= 2.3.6-0ubuntu20) but 2.3.6.ds1-13etch5 is installed [09:32] zerlneo: that is if you are on gutsy [09:32] JPSman, i'm not sure what that link is suppose to be for but it doesn't say anything about broadcom wireless cards [09:32] woooooohoooo ! [09:32] almost ? not quite ? [09:32] JPSman, i'm looking for a place that will list compatible usb wireless hardware so i can go buy one that will work with ubuntu [09:32] party ? [09:32] cgentry72: oh sorry [09:32] so all of those links needed to download? [09:33] rinovan: have you been mixing debian and ubuntu repos? [09:33] anyone? [09:33] yes i am [09:34] is anyone going to help? me. [09:34] hi, i'm trying to help a friend over IRC fix his computer [09:34] zerlneo: no you add new repositories to your software sources, that will make the most current version of awn available for download once you update your package lists .. it's all spelled out in the Testing Pacakages instructions for Gutsy [09:34] he's running LTS ubuntu [09:34] he's lost the ability to admin anything [09:34] is there supposed to be a wheel group in ubuntu? [09:35] JPSman, so do you know where i can find a list of compatible usb wireless cards [09:35] !hcl [09:35] For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport - To help debugging and improving hardware detection, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHardwareDetection [09:35] rinovan: well thats not always a good idea, the reason you have that error is that you have a debian package which is not compatible with the ubuntu package, you can try uninstall the debian package and either use apt-pinning or remove the debian repos to try and reinstall the ubuntu version of libc6, however this may cause breakage throughout your machine [09:35] ubotu, thanks man [09:35] Sorry, I don't know anything about thanks man - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [09:35] nagchampa: "admin" group [09:35] cgentry72: yeah i can find out bit busy right now [09:35] ok, thanks jrib [09:35] cgentry72: ubotu is a bot [09:36] !ask | doug2266778822 [09:36] doug2266778822: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily).

[09:38] final question, what groups should a default user be in (with admin access) for ubuntu? [09:38] im trying ot enable a restricted drivre but is says the software source is not enabled and it gives me a name how do i enable that [09:39] seamus7: i dont actually have a active internet connection at home... im here in a cafe station [09:40] thats why im looking also for a package installer that i can download and save it to my flash drive and install at home [09:40] doug2266778822: try System/Preferences/Sound -> Test if you can get playback to your speakers. Try setting the volume. Else you have to see if your soundcard is supported by the ALSA/OSS mixer. [09:40] rinovan: a method of specifying which package versions over which repos to favor, useful but hard to setup [09:41] hi [09:41] bsdpuppy: i have done that but all of it comes back external speakers [09:41] pls tell me something to do at comand line that takes a lot of time to perform and intensively uses system resources.. something like a simple benchamark or similar [09:41] using aa standard comand [09:41] tmroland: compile a kernel [09:41] zerlneo you won't have internet access at home anytime soon? [09:42] something else [09:42] there's an advanced CLI calculator that you could get soem tricky maths to do with it [09:42] doug2266778822: so you have sound playback? Than you haven't plugged the headphones in the right jack. [09:42] tmroland: what do you want to benchmark? [09:42] bsdpuppy: i have them pluged in the jack [09:42] anyone know what groups a standard user with admin access on ubuntu 6.06 should be in? [09:42] hard drive / ram [09:42] cpu [09:42] anything [09:42] using a simple command [09:43] tmroland: sudo hdparm -tT /dev/blah to benchmark a hdd [09:43] how much does that take [09:43] in time [09:43] not very long [09:43] well not good then [09:43] something that runs non stop [09:43] until i stop it [09:43] doug2266778822: tried other headphones? [09:44] anythin gthat works with the filesystem will do [09:44] tmroland: why do you want it to work like that? [09:44] i deleted a partition that has a LOT of important data on it, what can i do? [09:44] bsdpuppy: yes got brand new ones as well. [09:44] are there any dedicated ubuntu wifi support channels?

[09:45] anything included in standard linux [09:46] distros [09:46] tmroland: how long should it run [09:46] tmroland: and if you have several CPUs or multiple cores use '-j ' to use all cores.

[10:16] kaltsinho: I think it took a month or two to get the CDs for me, I am in Australia [10:16] that's actually pretty fast [10:16] JPSman: sudo apt-get install kernel-source [10:16] zerlneo you might try downloading the files for gutsy which end i386.deb .. put them on a usb drive or disc .. https://launchpad.net/~awn-testing/+archive ... you'd need those for avant-windows-navigator-trunk and avant-extra-applets-trunk .. there are 8 [10:17] i cant w8 so long dude [10:17] hi there - is there a flowchart application that does auto-placement/-spacing of elements? I hate having to arrange items manually [10:17] hi [10:17] hi [10:17] what specific distro that support quad core intel xeon processor? [10:17] kaltsinho, just put the blame on MS [10:17] that should do [10:17] hhofuel: ubuntu should support it [10:17] yeah [10:18] ActionParsnip: "E: Package kernel-source has no installation candidate" how and where do I point to what? [10:18] what do you think, is the slowes system i need to run xubuntu with useable speed? [10:18] dystopianray: even ubuntu server can support it, cant it? [10:18] houdini very lucky guy [10:18] JPSman: you probably only need the kernel headers: apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) [10:18] A-ha! solved my /opt directory issue [10:18] hhofuel: yes [10:18] eichi: a potato server [10:18] timfrost: is that what .h means? a header file? I never knew [10:18] JPSman: apt-cache search kernel-source [10:19] I'm looking for a pdf converter, anyone has any suggestions? [10:19] Was installing Xampp [10:19] wow cool [10:19] hhofuel: there is nothing special about 4 cores, any linux distro should support it [10:19] bb guys happy easter [10:19] JPSman: you'll need the universal options enabled [10:19] http://totl.net/Spud/ [10:19] Koheleth, ? what? [10:19] Koheleth, ? what? [10:19] it should run on that [10:19] JPSman: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/ubuntu-63/apt-get-kernel-source-is-installing-the-wrong-kernel-source.-317139/ [10:20] can someone help me? in my /etc/network/interfaces is only an entry for my loopback interface. why do i still have a working eth0? [10:20] Houdini: network-manager [10:20] A thank you to all who answered my questions earlier [10:20] bye fellas [10:20] which is the best cross platform GUI toolkit to use for both windows and linux for a opensource project ? any suggestions [10:20] dystopianray: what do you mean nothing special? does it mean that it wont add speed or efficient processing? [10:20] Houdini: network-manager is managing it, you can populate the file if you wish [10:20] dystopianray: what do you mean? [10:20] hhofuel: i mean that all distros should support it [10:21] hhofuel: you don't need to go looking for a special distro, they should all support it without issue [10:21] Mental_Man: wine is cool, cedega and crossover office if you wanna splash some cash [10:21] Houdini: network-manager is managing your eth0 interface [10:21] Mental_Man, erm... eclipse with plugins? [10:21] Mental_Man: Qt [10:21] JPSman: yes ".h" is a header file in the C/C++ world. BTW, if you install linux-headers-generic, it will keep updating the headers as new kernel releases are made [10:21] is QT opensource? [10:22] Mental_Man: yes, KDE is based on Qt [10:22] oh... thanks... [10:22] i am new to computers...... [10:22] Mental_Man: regardless of what you think of KDE, Qt is definetly the best GUI toolkit on any platform, it is amazing [10:22] but i hate windows....lol [10:22] thanks dystopianray [10:22] Mental_Man: you'll learn [10:23] I have a stupid question, I did "gksudo nautilus" and now the desktop stays on the root desktop, restarting x is not an option. What should I do? [10:24] Hey guys.. anyone know a good way to raw read a floppy drive and recover files off it? my boss has a floppy with some important notes on it, from a while back, his windows machine is saying unformatted disk. [10:24] timfrost: I am using hardy and kernel 2.6.22 - is this bad? [10:24] billgoldberg, kill process running nautilus? [10:25] NET||abuse: he has no backup? [10:25] won't that crash the desktop? [10:25] im running ubuntu gutsy gnome and i can not get my head phoen jack to work. can anyone help me? [10:25] JPSman : how many old kernels do you have? [10:25] doug, donwload "gnome alsamixer" from add/remove and tag the "headphone box" [10:25] dystopianray: it's that he had from some book from ages ago, it has some stuff he really wants to read. [10:26] NET||abuse: ty man dd [10:26] billgoldberg, I'm not sure about that now man [10:26] zvacet: just two - 2.6.22 and 2.6.24(that came with hardy) the reason is that 2.6.24 has buggy rt2x00 drivers and my internet is weak [10:26] goto terminal and type "nautilus -q [10:27] phishie, it's not really such a big deal, normally I would restart x, but gparted is running, i'll keep it like that and to "sudo nautilus" next time [10:27] mental man, will try [10:27] JPSman: that presents difficulties, as the 2.6.22 kernel packages aren't in the hardy repositories. You will have to download and install the header package manually (it will be available, as gutsy uses that kernel) [10:27] that i think should restart nautilus back with default user [10:27] JPSman : So you can boot in Hardy kernel but you don´t want to.You can use old krnel. [10:27] didn't work [10:28] ok .. then goto terminal and type "killall nautilus".... [10:28] zvacet: exactly - i just want to know if thats a bad thing [10:28] without quotes... [10:28] doesn't work either, nor did pkill [10:28] JPSman: just build your own rt2x00 drivers? [10:28] logout and login back again....see if that works [10:28] JPSman: then you can boot into 2.6.22 kernel just fine [10:29] Is this the 8.04 discussion? [10:29] or is there another chanel [10:29] mental_man, I know that will do but I can't log out now (gparted is resizing my external hdd) [10:29] s/chanel/channel [10:29] !hardy [10:29] 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 - Support in #ubuntu+1 - Come join the #ubuntu-release-party now! [10:29] Joelio: #ubuntu+1 [10:29] JPSman : You can run old krnel,but if you get fix for new one how do you know it? [10:29] ok... [10:29] i'll just wait till gparted is ready and then restart x [10:29] its really hard to say what might have caused the problem [10:29] cpkl: I wish I was that leet. No the guys over at http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com have done that I just dont know how to impliment the VCS's [10:30] cvs [10:30] firefox isnt starting on two of my dapper machines after a recent update/upgrade. Is this a known problem? [10:30] try starting the system monitor and see if nautilus is running as dependency for another program [10:30] another strange this that happened is that naulilus won''t open, nor does thunar, I can only open it using "gksudo nautilus". [10:30] ok [10:31] timfrost: so google kernel header package 2.6.22? how do I do this manuall? [10:32] sgbirch: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2006-March/071488.html [10:32] JPSman: ahh, i see since they switched to being in the kernel tree to get the newest you need the newest kernel, that might be more work than you want =P otherwise you might be able to try the legacy drivers [10:32] hey guys [10:33] cpkl: legacy drivers? [10:33] JPSman: which rt chipset you have? [10:33] thunar and nautilus say "uninteruptable", thunar is running by itself and naulitus as depedency for the x-session-manager [10:33] cpkl: rt2500pci [10:34] see if "gksudo nautilus -q" works [10:34] JPSman: so why dont you just try building the driver from this http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/rt2500-cvs-daily.tar.gz instead of going through all the trouble of manually getting .22 kernel headers and whatnot [10:34] Hi [10:34] hi [10:34] Hi [10:34] mental man: no [10:34] JPSman: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.22/+bug/129183 [10:34] Is the radeon xpress 1150 supported with the OSS radeon driver? [10:34] cpkl: because I reallly really dont know how :OP LOL I would love to learn [10:35] I never had this happening before, strange [10:35] ;) [10:35] the problems started when choosing a new gtk theme [10:35] ok... i guess when the partitioning is done... logout and log back in [10:35] that's the plan :p [10:35] how long to go now? [10:36] ActionParsnip: I dont know how to use this information that you have given me [10:36] JPSman: you will have just as much trouble installing kernel headers as you would building the drivers [10:36] *manually installing kernel headers that it [10:36] is* [10:37] Koheleth: that doesnt seem to be the problem [10:37] cpkl: ok this is true but as I am using 2.6.24 I have no internet with which to ask you guys and trouble shoot these things [10:37] cpkl: where is a good place to start learning how to build a driver? === [1]thelostolive is now known as thelostolive [10:37] JPSman: ndiswrapper does it too :) [10:37] I just googled a few words like dapper +firefox and that came up [10:37] Koheleth: removing the .parentlock file doesnt help. The firefox process is running but no window is displayed [10:37] JPSman: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-24389.html [10:38] JPSman: you'll need the XPdriver [10:38] * JPSman looks like a lost puppy [10:39] sgbirch: try uninstalling and deleting the folders and reinstalling from scratch, I bet that will sort it. [10:39] JPSman: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/RalinkRT2500?highlight=%28ralink%29 is a good place to start [10:40] Koheleth: Yeah, I just did a rm -rf .mozilla and it came back. Strange .. two machines broke after and upgrade. Both dapper. [10:40] JPSman: you arent going to learn the system without putting some efort in dude [10:41] contact mozilla [10:41] JPSman: look around and find stuff out man [10:41] is there a screen capture program for linux that also captures sound ? [10:42] that be cool [10:42] JPSman: I am pretty sure that link I gave you explains both methods of getting ralink cards to work so read up =) [10:42] hi! what could be the most stable both smtp and imap/pop3 email server? [10:42] ActionParsnip: I understand. I'm trying my best but I am frustrated. I thank you for all your help so far [10:42] any tips pls? [10:42] cpkl: thank you for all your help :OD [10:42] JPSman: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux-source-2.6.22/ (or choose a local mirror) should have the linux-headers-2.6.22 file you need. Grab the correct one for your architecture, if you do need to build the driver from source === Syntux_ is now known as Syntux [10:43] timfrost: if he is building from source he might as well use 2.6.24 and then he can apt the headers [10:43] timfrost: thank you for all your help [10:44] anybody using xchat? [10:44] gotta a little problem and its pissing me off rly bad [10:44] JPSman: read the walkthrough i pasted up above, its pretty helpful [10:44] karim: i'm not using it now but I do use it elsewhere [10:44] timfrost - cpkl : I have decieded to take ActionParsnips advice and learn how to fix my rt2500 problem. I thank all of you for your help. [10:44] JPSman: basically you combine ndswrapper (install from repos) [10:44] with the xp driver [10:44] karim: what's the problem?

[10:55] Ryuho : cd / and then sudo find / -name *navi2ch* [10:55] ok [10:55] Ryuho : it have to be somewhere [10:56] cRyPt0: then sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install horde [10:56] searching [10:56] Did I choose a bad channel? I ask because you seem to be dumb like windows user [10:56] anybody who knows the hdparm -B 254 /dev/sda command [10:57] CrazyRat: what about it ? [10:57] bad_image: the 2nd sentance is correct [10:57] i see files under emacs/22.1 file [10:57] bad_image: whats the problem, and please be respectful to other users [10:57] I wonder how can I revert it [10:57] ActionParsnip: it gives me the following error: Package horde is not available, but is referred to by another package. [10:57] This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or [10:57] is only available from another source [10:57] E: Package horde has no installation candidate [10:57] bad_image: the second sentence is better english and we are not dumb [10:57] cRyPt0: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

[10:59] ikonia, as you can see my question has been already answered =) [10:59] ActionParsnip: i get the following error -> Package horde is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source E: Package horde has no installation candidate [10:59] how do I force dpkg to install a package?

[10:59] CrazyRat: 254 is only JUST turning apm on [11:00] CrazyRat: the lower the value the more agressive the apm [11:00] CrazyRat: 255 turns it off, so if your on 254, you've only just turned it on [11:00] ikonia, alright [11:00] bye and thx again [11:00] ikonia: i just answered to the question he asked first [11:00] cRyPt0: then you need to find a repository with the app on it [11:00] Paavi2_0: yes, but persisting with sly remarks about windows users shouldn't continue [11:00] hmm, thanks ikonia [11:01] I just found that in man pages [11:01] Ryuho I don´t know.What about instaqll file and ead me file.Can you find something about package there? [11:01] CrazyRat: you may want to try setting it to a quite agressive number to test it [11:01] is it normal to hear the little needle scrape across the hd disks? inside the hd. [11:01] CrazyRat: you may also want to check if your drive supportes it [11:01] doug2266778822: depends on the sound, but yes [11:01] yeah, my load_cycle_count rising fast [11:01] i'm looking at the install instruction file.. but it only says to make install... then the list of things to do ends lol === acuster is now known as avc_lunch [11:02] Ryuho: contact the maintering/support service for it then [11:02] ikonia: you're right. many ubuntu/linux-users i know are using windows too. didn't mean to give wrong impressions [11:02] cRyPt0: http://packages.ubuntu.com/gutsy/horde-sam [11:02] maybe [11:02] ikonia it seems like an abandoned project anyway [11:02] the sourceforge webpage seems out dated [11:02] Paavi2_0: no problem, just be mindful of what you say "windows is dumb" is just a silly statment and uncalled for (as an example) [11:02] ActionParsnip: shd i add that to the apt config file? [11:02] Ryuho: what is the application ? [11:03] navi2chan-1.7.5 [11:03] thnks ikonia [11:03] Ryuho: not aware of it at all [11:03] http://sourceforge.net/projects/navi2ch/ [11:03] cRyPt0: you need to enable universe repos [11:03] yeah [11:03] ActionParsnip: how do i do that. i currently have the sources.list file open [11:04] cRyPt0: uncomment the lines for universe if you want [11:04] or you can use adept / synaptic / whatever and enable them [11:04] cRyPt0: id google about enabling sources [11:05] ActionParsnip: ok [11:05] cRyPt0: i'd also run sudo apt-get upgrade too [11:05] Sepate screens/sessions for Nvidia cards [11:05] thx for the input guys [11:06] setting hdparm -B 128 .... looks like the hdd temperature falls a little bit [11:07] does this Load_Cycle_Count really matters if it's rising fast? [11:07] hello [11:08] CrazyRat: yes, it's reducing the lifespan of your drive [11:08] CrazyRat: can effect performance, [11:09] does anyone know if the is a live cd of ubuntu which comes with vlc on it out the box [11:09] but if i turn spin down off, the temperature rises...about 5 degree [11:09] ? [11:09] mogsog: no [11:09] mogsog: there is only one ubuntu livecd [11:09] which is worse? [11:09] CrazyRat: thats your call [11:09] mogsog: just boot the livecd and install vlc [11:09] -_-b [11:10] mogsog: or get a diffent livecd that does have vlc [11:10] dystopianray: know any live cds which do have vlc? [11:10] mogsog: this is nothing to do with ubuntu [11:10] mogsog: please take it to a more generic place. [11:10] Thank you anyway , ikonia :) [11:10] CrazyRat: welcome [11:10] ok thanks [11:10] mogsog: no [11:12] what is compize fusion room? last time i ask i will make note [11:12] doug2266778822: #compiz-fusion [11:12] This is driving me nuts... i cant connect to a wifi network in (k)ubuntu that vista connects to without a problem, the card can see the network fine, i'm able to enter the WEP key - but then it fails. Syslog says 'association took too long (>60 s)' anyone help? willing to drop a few $ into a hat for this (be it your hat or ubuntus) [11:12] ikonia: thank you [11:13] a_c_m: no need for $ [11:13] a_c_m: the most common cause of this is a timeout due to the encyption type being wrong on ubuntu [11:13] cpkl: oh the irony. I need the latest Kernel headers to create a new rt2500 driver xOP !! [11:14] ikonia i kind of assumed that... but the encryption type is correct, i know as i'm using it now (from vista) [11:14] a_c_m: what encyption type is it ? [11:14] ikonia WEP [11:15] ikonia 128 bit key, given to me as a asci string [11:15] a_c_m: ok, so I don't know how kubuntu displays this but in the gnome network config thee are multiple options for wep [11:15] ActionParsnip: oh the irony. I need the latest Kernel headers to create a new rt2500 driver xOP !! [11:15] JPSman: we saw you the first time [11:15] ikonia yeah i get a few options too, tried them all [11:15] ikonia: I didnt think/dont know he was on [11:16] a_c_m: also, you may want to check that wep is actually supported/stable on your card [11:16] JPSman: doesn't matter - you posted it in channel, EVERYONE saw it [11:16] ikonia agreed, however i've had this problem on non WEP enabled networks [11:16] a_c_m: when I say suported stable, I mean with the linux driver your using, of course it's supported as your using it in windows [11:16] a_c_m: an interesting test would be to disable the encyption on the network and see if it can join [11:17] trying that now [11:17] ikonia you about for a bit? [11:17] a_c_m: another thing to check is make sure what your gui or /etc/interfaces file says your card is setup with, matches what iwconfig says [11:17] a_c_m: I'll be around in/out for a while [11:18] a_c_m: I have a common issue with a certain make/model of card that when I disable encyption in the gui, I have to disable it using iwconfig as it doesn't actually hit the card through the gui [11:19] JPSman: if you are using the 2.6.24 kernel on hardy you can use apt to get the kernel headers, if you are on gutsy you can get the .22 headers from apt === dulkemith is now known as dul [11:20] cpkl: I am using 2.6.22 on hardy :O' [11:20] JPSman: is there a reason your using that version with hardy ? [11:20] cpkl: thing is, if I build a driver on .22 will it work in .24?

[11:20] ikonia: yes .24 has internet connection issues [11:21] P.S its hardware RAID not Software [11:21] JPSman interenet connection issues, ??? do you mean network card stability ? [11:21] JPSman: but like I said before, if the only reason you want to use .22 is because of the wireless you might as well use .24 since you are building the drivers yourself [11:21] A[D]minS: look at the tools your hardware vendor has supplied [11:21] ikonia: yes - .24's rt2500 drivers are buggy [11:22] cpkl: yeah I want to - but at the tutorial says "Please note you will need to have an active internet connection for these instructions to work, so you may need to hook up via ethernet temporarily." [11:22] and since I dont have one in .24 i am caught in a catch 22 :OD [11:22] I have the following error and I would like to get it handled-any help would be appreciated http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64097/ [11:22] JPSman: you don't have an ethernet port? [11:23] cpkl: I dont have internet.

[11:25] JPSman: section 4.4 seems pretty easy to follow [11:26] hello, will there be a new version tomorrow? I tried to upgrade today but it want's to remove alot of essential programs such a xsetroot, xlogo, xmms!, xdpyinfo etc, is this to be expected? [11:26] bulbulbred, nice to see a fellow countrymen. I was feeling left out. [11:27] JPSman: since you are in the .22 kernel though will will need to replace the $(uname -r) in linux-headers-$(uname -r) with the correct version for .24 which you will be using [11:27] cpkl: can I install it while I am running .22? === hj is now known as weto [11:27] JPSman: you can install build essential and the kernel headers [11:28] has anyone gotten recordmydesktop to work on their system ? [11:28] Ok i'll try that. I didnt know that I could load other driver headers while using a different kernel [11:28] Does anybody know about the error I am receiving after I install a program? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64097/ [11:28] babo, yes [11:28] billgoldberg: yes, frequently [11:28] JPSman: save that web page to your computer so after you get the .24 kernels you can boot into .24 and finish compiling the kernel and loading it [11:28] For someone impatient, what do you miss out on by downloading the RC a day before the release? [11:29] billgoldberg, did it recognize your soundcard straight off ? Also, how did you activate the GUI client ? [11:29] fiyawerx: nothing [11:29] fiyawerx: install and upgrade and you'll be at the same point as the final tomorrow [11:29] dystopianray: cool, was hoping that was the answer [11:29] possible last minute changes on the cd if you are someone with limited bandwidth right? [11:29] no, never got the sound working, but I added sound to it using avidemux, Use gtkrecordmydesktop for the gui [11:29] fiyawerx: if you can don't get the RC, get one the latest daily livecd build [11:29] LOL [11:29] fiyawerx: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/ [11:30] kubuntu rc torrent coming in at 900kB/sec so can't complain, will check tha tout thanks dys [11:30] Can anyone help me with a sound issue: I have sound through the headphones but not through my laptop speakers-I am a newbie and need some help please [11:30] roocraig, download "gnome alsamixer" from synatpic and max everyting [11:31] JPSman: keep in mind also you might have to blacklist the headers that came with the .24 kernel [11:31] roocraig, or "alsamixer" in the terminal [11:31] billgoldberg, how did you activate it though ? [11:31] DISPLAY=:0 && gtk-recordmydesktop [11:31] nothing [11:31] cpkl: blacklist? [11:31] babo, the gui?

[12:25] Daonix: it has 2 partitions under vista 1st is 140gb and then 2nd is 10 gb [12:25] 10Gb is enough for installing Ubuntu [12:25] Daonix: I want to completely use it for ubuntu [12:25] but i recommend u to remove Vista at all [12:25] Daonix: what do u suggest ? [12:26] Daonix: yes that was really my Idea [12:26] i think: 10 Gb volume -- for system(ubuntu). 140 Gb volume -- for anything another [12:26] my mousewheel stopped scrolling (nautilus, firefox etc) but clicking still works. what could be the cause for that? [12:26] system volume should be ReiserFS [12:27] system valume should be ext3 [12:27] Daonix: ok then thanks.. Im new in linux and i want to learn more about ubuntu [12:27] Daonix: Just restarted my system. restarting gdm gave a black screen, restarting X, after login nothing was displayed. any other ideas [12:27] ? [12:27] Daonix: ReiserFS??? [12:27] yes! [12:28] Daonix: what is the diff between Ext2 and ReiserFS? [12:28] there ar some problems appearing sometimes with ext3... [12:28] Daonix: why? [12:28] anton: Reiserfs is not reccomended for users who do not have a specific need to use it [12:28] the first problem: it sometimes doesn`t installs [12:29] Pici, not true [12:29] ????? [12:29] :) [12:29] ext3 is wery unlikely for Reset-users)) [12:29] Daonix: there's a reason why ext3 is the default with most distros [12:29] Daonix: reset users? [12:30] Daonix: Reset-users? [12:30] Daonix: sorry for the private, by mistake [12:30] peoples, who have habit of using Reset as often as in Windows... [12:30] what are you talking about? [12:30] it's a journaled fs, no problems there [12:30] Daonix: No one should do that regardless of the operating system, and is a silly reason for choosing one FS over another [12:30] <_mika> tomorrow will be released hardy, right? does someone know if there is any specific time? or just during the day ? [12:30] prodigel, u have reinstalled all three packages and it didnt help? [12:31] Daonix: reinstalled nautilus [12:31] Daonix: what are the other 2? [12:31] _mika: no specific time, you can wait in #ubuntu-release-party for the announcement though === co is now known as The_UmbruZ [12:31] prodigel, try reinstalling metacity [12:31] <_mika> Pici: ok [12:32] Daonix: so nautilus, metacity and the thirds one is? [12:32] Daonix; reiserfs is dead.. [12:32] Daonix: ok then .. Ill use feiser. are there any complications using Feiser? [12:32] why is it dead? [12:32] do not use reiser [12:32] prodigel, try alsa reinstall compiz... [12:32] !reiser | anton please read this [12:32] anton please read this: reiserfs is a journalling file system, which outperforms many others on I/O operations, but has drawbacks (such as increasing likelihood of data loss, and introducing latency unsuitable for gaming or real-time audio). Using !ext3, the default on Ubuntu, is *highly* recommended. A read-only Windows driver is available at http://p-nand-q.com/download/rfstool.html [12:32] Daonix: not using compiz [12:32] there was resently some patches in the kernel for it? ;) [12:32] anton: ext3 is perfectly stable, use this. it's the most used one [12:33] ext3 is pretty slow [12:33] HELP I have no functioning internet now.

[13:36] eroticon: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu [13:36] eroticon: 18 months support from release, 3 years support for LTS [13:36] yeah im reading that [13:36] eroticon: it's more burried than it used to be [13:37] eroticon: yeah I think that is what it means. but if your os is that old you might want to consider upgrading anyway [13:37] yup no more security updates. [13:37] HardyOne: not all the time, there are some pretty key changes in say 6.06 to 7.10 on it's own, in some situations it's worth staying on 6.06 [13:37] eroticon: if you want to have the most support install the latest LTS and you will get at the minimum 3 years [13:38] ikonia: even without security updates? [13:38] HardyOne: yes [13:38] I'm going to download ubuntu asap tomorrow, I hope I get to feel some improvements... Are you guys happy with the RC? [13:38] ikonia: but 6.06 to 8.04 ( both LTS ) should be ok I would hope [13:39] HardyOne: depends on your situation, for the mass market, yes, for certain business situations, no [13:39] roffe__: you might want to download now , install then final update tomorrow. use torrent if possible as to not kill the servers === crummygummy_ is now known as CrummyGummy [13:39] ikonia: yes I see what you are saying [13:40] #bandung [13:40] is it possible to turn e.g. a kubuntu into a xubuntu installation? how much do these "distros" differ? will i get effectively the same installation if i simply install xfce? [13:40] can someone remind me what the command to load the ubuntu ncurses partioining system is [13:40] (the partioning system they use in the installer) [13:40] HardyOne: will I only need to do a minor update tomorrow then? [13:40] hi, I got a DVD+RW disc with a bunch of stuff on it. When I try recording through nautilus it asks if I want to erase the disc, I click Erase and it starts but after about 5secs it says: "There was an error writing to the disc: [13:40] berzerka: they differ quite abit in look and feel [13:40] Unhandled error, aborting" [13:41] roffe__: hopefully it will be a minor/major upgrade or a major-minor :) [13:41] Symmetria: cfdisk maybe? i don't know what is used in the installation.. [13:41] roffe__: loooove it, eventhough there´ s still a strange bug with tv-cards (tend to hang the system), and sometimes KDE keeps hanging in the air; that will no doubt be solved an even with the li´ l troublets I loooooove it ! It´ s great ! [13:41] thank you guys === tsw__ is now known as tsw [13:42] HardyOne :) ok, I'll head over there now then... [13:42] roffe__: good idea wish I thought of it [13:42] nah its not cfdisk === Azamir2 is now known as Azamir [13:42] HardyOne: well, of course, they use a different desktop. but are there any _real_ differences, like specially patched software. i see that they are using the same software repository, so no. [13:42] Leeuw: Ok, sounds awesome, so you found it to be that great, then I won't be unsatisfied! [13:42] which ubuntu suports 3945 wirless and easiest to use? [13:43] roffe__: fer sure, nope [13:43] supzki: ubuntu/kubuntu/xubuntu are the same base system [13:43] I'll try using dvd+rw-format /dev/scd1 [13:43] ikonia: which is smallest? best [13:43] supzki: best is subjective, the base system is the same, but xubuntu will have the smallest desktop footprint [13:43] roffe__: except if you have a tv-card with philips chip; then it might hang and be useless; so either take it out, or find out if it´ s ben solved before upgrade [13:44] anyone? [13:44] roffe__: if you have one, that is [13:44] whats smallest desktop footprint hehe [13:44] jhoc2x_: anyone what ? [13:44] * Scrounch is now away: off [13:44] jhoc2x_: saying "anyone" is the most poitnless thing [13:44] ikonia: all on one cd? [13:44] berzerka: no apps are interchangable from xubuntu/kubuntu/ubuntu one BIG issue is that your menus will end up a mish mash ok kde and xfce if you have the room do a seperate install. not easy to clean it all up afterwards when you decide to stick with one WM [13:44] !away > Scrounch [13:44] dvd+rw-format -blank /dev/sdc1, will that erase everything and let me burn later? [13:44] ikonia: lol.. i raise a question.. ^_^ nobody did seem to care.. ^_^ [13:45] ikonia: or maybe i was just... lagging... ^_6 sorry [13:45] Leeuw: I lack one, unfortunately :) [13:45] jhoc2x_: so why would saying "anyone" help anyone who missed the question, or prompt someone who didn't care to respond ? [13:45] hey we all care :P [13:45] -blank didn't work either, it says "illegal command-line option for this media." [13:45] i know.. it just seems.. ^_^ maybe i was just lagging.. ^_^ [13:45] HardyOne: i don't use the desktop's menu anyway... so there is no real difference in the distros, and it could also be unified in one installation procedure where you get asked "which WM/Desktop do you want to install?" at the end? [13:45] latency is pretty high.. ^_6 [13:45] jhoc2x_: please try to speak in english without lol rolf ^_^ [13:46] ikonia: which one of them is 1 cd? [13:46] apache2 php5 libapache2-mod-php5 << is it all you need for apache +php ? [13:46] jhoc2x_: even if it's lagging saying "anyone" won't make anything else happen apart from get peoples backs up [13:46] supzki: all of them [13:46] anyway, i ask about... why my flash drive is not detected... [13:46] hi, I am trying to play the linux game uplink on my dual-screen PC but I can't get it to use another resoltion then the one I'm on now (so both the screens) does anyone have any idea how I can fix that ? [13:46] Where can I submit a tutorial? [13:46] Kcaj: the wiki page ? [13:46] ikonia: kubuntu fine? [13:47] HardyOne: i just don't see why they invent three apparently different distros only for a different choice of desktop. i find that confusing.. [13:47] Kcaj: you can give it to people in here to review for you [13:47] I'm about to attempt an install of the latest Ubuntu RC from Windows, on to a seperate hard drive. [13:47] I can do that, sure. [13:47] supzki: depends on your needs, if you like kde - sure [13:47] Kcaj: thats not really going to be worth while as the release candidates go away in a day [13:47] berzerka: Xubuntu is meant for older hardware with less resources [13:47] I have an issue mounting a SD card. Any special chanel for stuff like that? [13:47] san|: can the controller be seen ? [13:48] HardyOne: will a different kernel get installed? or any smaller set of software apart of the desktop part? [13:48] ikonia: any idea why my flash drive is not detected when i plug it in??? it work on my XP... [13:48] there seems to be something wrong... brasero says: "Erorr blanking" [13:48] ikonia: Yeah but the methodology shouldn't change [13:48] ikonia: yeah but I changed the 'mount options' under properties and now ubuntu can't mount the card anymore :( [13:48] jhoc2x_: what works on XP is of no use to ubuntu. What file system is on it [13:48] berzerka: same kernel [13:48] Kcaj: yes, thats very true, consider that when you write it up [13:48] hi [13:48] Any idea how to reenable the virtual terminals? for some reason i lost them all at some point [13:48] ikonia: do you know where ubuntu stores these settings? [13:49] san|: what settings ? [13:49] HardyOne: hmm. so if my machine permits it there is effectively no difference between the releases, and i can simply install kde on xubuntu and vice versa... [13:49] I'm a fairly decent writer, I'll try my best and get back to you guys [13:49] Is there somewhere I can type it in? What is the wiki link? Or should I just maybe post it in one of my blogs somewhere? [13:49] ikonia: i think its FAT32... just earlier it was detected.. and i even save some files on it.. it's weird after i restarted it's gone.. (not detected) [13:49] Kcaj: I'd be happy to review and give it a test run if you like (there are plenty of other people too) [13:49] Actually, I think I'll do that (at least at first) [13:49] Kcaj: https://help.ubuntu.org, just don't put it live [13:50] berzerka: yeah pretty much. personally I use Ubuntu ( GNOME ) but Kubuntu is nice if your ram can handle it [13:50] jhoc2x_: unplug it and plug it back in, check the syslog afte ryou plug it in === Kcaj is now known as Kcaj[UBuntu] [13:50] HardyOne: okay, thanks a lot for the info. [13:50] well once mounted (it worked before) I can goto properties of the mounted device. But it was mounted as read only so I added to the 'mount options' textbox the text 'rw' as in read/write. But now ubuntu fails to mount the device at all due to this setting but I have no clue where to undo this... [13:50] ikonia: ^^ [13:51] san|: try to mount it manually [13:51] san|: see if there is any references in /etc/fstab [13:51] san|: check if there are any mount errors in the syslog [13:51] ikonia: i did.. plug in/plug out.. nothing happens... (how to check syslog?) [13:51] ikonia: there is none in /etc/fstab [13:51] checked that already [13:51] jhoc2x_: look in /var/log/messages [13:52] san|: try the other stuff I suggested [13:52] ikonia: I was wondering if ubuntu stored stuff like that in gconf [13:52] ikonia: will do! [13:52] tnx! [13:52] when will released exactly ubuntu 8.04 according to greenwich meridian time?? [13:52] Openuser: I believe so [13:52] Openuser: when its done. [13:53] help.ubuntu.org = 404??

[13:54] Kcaj[UBuntu]: ubuntu.com - sorry [13:54] ah lol [13:54] Openuser as pici said "when it's done" [13:54] Openuser: No specific hour, and unknown at this time [13:54] Openuser: an extra hour is added every time someone asks [13:54] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ [13:54] bazhang: :D [13:54] That is more the proper link :D [13:54] Kcaj[UBuntu]: there you go [13:54] i need help [13:55] Simonft: ask the question then [13:55] im installing ubuntu on a power book G4 [13:55] elaborate please Simonft [13:55] Simonft: ubuntu 7.10 ppc edition ?

[14:05] neo1ite, then you get yourdomain.com/foldername [14:06] well it looks like it tries to start kdm and the boot process, but then i get static lines across about a 1 square inch of my screen and then everything goes blank and nothing happens [14:06] can someone help me install ubuntu on a mac powerbook G4?

[14:06] bazhang: G4s are PPCs, not intels [14:06] Simonft[1]: I asked exactly what version of ubuntu and what arch [14:06] j2daosh: can you boot into recovery mode?

[14:11] <_ruben> !info open-vm-tools hardy [14:11] PmDematagoda: it's 24th in the states, [14:11] Package open-vm-tools does not exist in hardy [14:11] ikonia : and USA is sstill in early 23rd [14:12] ikonia is your clock right? [14:12] Hardy will be released some time during the 24th. Please do not ask for a specific time as there isnt any. [14:12] i think they go after CET time [14:12] what is cet time? GMT + 6? [14:12] CET is basicly gmt [14:12] hmm... so with the impending release of 8.04, if i was in the process of building a reference server to test an OS upgrade, is it worth waiting for the new release, given it may be years before we upgrade the OS again? :/ [14:13] j2daosh: no, gnt -6 [14:13] some daylight saving difference i think [14:13] oh ok, so they are only 5 hours ahead of US CST [14:13] !offtopic [14:13] #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! [14:13] CET = uk [14:13] thanks [14:13] Leeuw: so they are an hour before me? [14:13] im downloading it now [14:13] UK is GMT.... [14:13] hi, my computer sound disappeared, and it says that its in use, how to list the processes that uses it so I would kill them? [14:13] GMT -6 is US MST [14:13] j2daosh didnt you see pici's notice? [14:14] j2daosh: I don´t know where you are, and I made a mistake, it´ s -6 for me in Amsterdam, -5 from GMT [14:14] dose ubuntu server working on Xeon ? [14:14] we're going off-topic like this [14:14] oh no! [14:14] good morning all [14:14] sorry, but it´s important nonetheless, aint it ? [14:14] could someone please explain to me why metacity is not working anymore and blaming it on mono? [14:14] ubuntu+1? [14:14] A[D]minS: yes, it's just x86 or x86_64 depending on your chip [14:14] PmDematagoda: yerrite... [14:15] i cant even get the live cd to work now [14:15] PmDematagoda: right, that is [14:15] deserteagle: how does it complain? [14:15] :) [14:15] but the windows live cd works... so i know its not a hardware issue [14:15] j2daosh: windows is nothing to do with ubuntu, I've told you this 2 times now [14:15] any 8.04 mirrors already open??? like in Australia or some other far off timezone? [14:15] sipior: i'm sorry, not mono, bonobo. when booting up it says it cannot register with bonobo properly and nautilus says the same thing [14:16] server irc.freenode.net [14:16] guyvdb_: we've just spend 5 minutes saying "stop asking" [14:16] ikonia: yeah but seeing how as i can get a windows live cd to work, i know its not the laptop hardware thats messed up, it has to be with the cd or the linux install [14:16] hi folks :) [14:16] ikonia... k sorry just joined channel [14:16] j2daosh: no you don't know that [14:16] ikonia all what i know its Intel Xeon [14:16] j2daosh: you know the hardware is compatible with your windows live cd - thats it [14:16] it's ready when it's ready... nothing to do with releasing it at the same time in every timezone! [14:16] guyvdb_, #ubuntu+1 [14:16] What's timezone have to do with when you're able to get 8.04? :/ I've been here listening for a while, and wondering.. "Don't people just go to the website and grab it when its out?" If so, time zone doesn't matter! ... thanks :p [14:16] is anyone really using wifi with a bcm4318 ? [14:16] A[D]minS: well, x86 should work fine [14:16] sipior: nautilus specifically says: "Nautilus can't be used now, due to an unexpected error from Bonobo when attempting to register the file manager view server" [14:16] deserteagle: bizarre. are there old bonobo processes hanging about? does the problem persist on a reboot? [14:17] i can't seem to get it working on my ibook G4 [14:17] sipior: 2 reboots after a system update [14:17] :( [14:17] ok, lemme rephrase, my screen isn't busted, the cd-rom works fine to read the cd, and i have access to all my peripherals... [14:17] deserteagle: if you make a new account, does the problem carry over? [14:17] Hi. I've installed the icecc packages. How do I run the scheduler on a node? [14:17] anyone on ppc, here? :) [14:18] Mimi: some peolpe like the suspense of counting down, I guess... ;-) [14:18] Mimi Hardy will be released some time during the 24th. There is not a specific time that the release will be made, but you can await the announcement in #ubuntu-release-party. Please direct upgrade and RC questions to #ubuntu+1. [14:18] sipior: haven't tried, furthermore there is no gnome-panel [14:18] 1 day!! =) [14:18] so again, it's either the linux install cd that is broke, or this version of ubuntu isn't compatible (even though it was working somewhat ok 2 days ago) [14:18] sipior: i can create a user with what command again? [14:18] Marfi: #ubuntu-release-party [14:18] Can someone tell me if the ATI restircted driver supports Xv? My videos playback in very low quality and are jerky in full screen. Doing an xvinfo command says "no adapters present". Do I need to wait for a driver update or is this something I can fix myself? I have an ATI HD 3850. [14:18] Thanks. people keep asking here, so I wanted to know what the deal is. Yes, I know it's released sometime tomorrow... just dont understand what time zones have to do w/ it [14:18] jpatrick, no way!!! [14:19] deserteagle: adduser [14:19] i'm trying to compile glibc-2.7, i,m having linking problems related to "stack protection" [14:19] i have (attempted) to configure smb on my pc to share folders from ubuntu on my network but as soon as i browse from a windows machine it keeps on asking me for a password. how do i find out what the password is or disable it?? [14:19] ajricoveri: why the heck would you be doing that ? [14:19] Mimi: simple: it´ s tomorrow there, today here, dateline, you know ? This is my last remark, let´ s skip to release party or #ubuntu+1 [14:19] ajricoveri: 2.6 and greater are intergrated SSP [14:20] When does support for 6.06 and 7.10 officially end? Calendar year or sometime during 2009? [14:20] heh [14:20] this is gonna take a while [14:20] ikonia, im not pretending to install it, but to install it on a different partition where im doing a custom linux system [14:20] Im running mkfs.ext3 -cv /dev/sda -> mkfs.ext3 -cv /dev/sdo [14:20] Nom-: 6.06 3 years after release 7.10 18 months after [14:20] all at the same time [14:20] :p [14:21] ajricoveri: so why is this anything to do with ubuntu then ? [14:21] * Symmetria watches his FC san going nuts :p [14:21] sipior: i'll be trying a new user [14:21] Hi I was having an issue with ndiswrapper for my built-in wireless card. I blacklisted the b43 driver and would have ndiswrapper start. However, it did not create/attach to my card. I did an ndiswrapper -l saw that the card was present but the kernel module ssd was a driver for it === anton is now known as Razel [14:21] howdo you install ubuntu from commandline? [14:21] ikonia, im compiling it on my ubuntu box who is acting as my host platform [14:21] ajricoveri: thats not an ubuntu problem, you should be using a toolchain [14:22] I did lsmod |grep ssd and noticed it was attached to b44 my wired nic. I blacklisted it and all is working. So my question is what is SSD module? [14:22] j2daosh, do you have a ubuntu commandline system installed? [14:22] not yet, i went into the oem install option of the live cd [14:22] so it dropped me into a shell [14:22] j2daosh: just install the normal version [14:22] j2daosh: your not an oem builder [14:23] is there a ubuntu dvd with both gnome and kde on it? [14:23] so ~ 12 months on 7.10 ugh... hmm ok tnx [14:23] iusegnulinux: there is a dvd with repos on it, but as far as I'm aware it installs with just gnome as a normal install would [14:23] can', using the standard version, it loads the ubuntu splash screen and then hangs [14:23] iusegnulinux: the live dvd usually has both. but installs with gnome by default. [14:23] ikonia, you mean to install the entire toolchain on target platform and do things from it?? chroot'ing and stuff?? [14:23] j2daosh: so how is the oem install going to change that [14:23] j2daosh, what you want is the alternate cd [14:23] thanks guys [14:23] ajricoveri: it;s the only way to have a sane target build wihtout cross-compiling [14:24] just one more remark on Hardy (sorry; but tomorrow we´ ll be discussing it here anyway): anyone who wants it, just go get the daily build now, before the servers crash and update tomorrow: same thing ! NOw I´ ll shut up about that stupid Big Birdy... [14:24] j2daosh, it uses a graphic commandline isntall [14:24] Leeuw: how about no more remakes [14:24] remakrs [14:24] because this is the most life i have seen from this laptop in 2 days and if i can managae to get around the live install hanging by using the oem install option, thats what im gonna do [14:24] iusegnulinux: i think there's a metapackage called something like kubuntu-desktop that you install that will give you kde. not 100% sure about the package name though. [14:24] j2daosh: the oem install won't do anything [14:24] j2daosh: its the same base [14:24] kubuntu-desktop gives you kde 3.5.9 [14:24] kubuntu-kde4-desktop gives you kde4 [14:24] !kubuntu-desktop | iusegnulinux [14:24] iusegnulinux: k/ed/x/ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage. It depends upon other packages and brings them in; you can safely remove it, but it is recommended that you re-install it when upgrading. [14:24] k, thanks [14:25] How to disable devices, similar to windows device manager? [14:25] Andycasss: blacklist the module [14:25] !blacklist > Andycasss [14:25] Andycasss: check the pm from ubotu [14:25] Andycasss: which device do you want to disable? and permanently or temporarily? [14:28] hi cna someone tell me why does it take 3-5min for my shutdown options to popup when i click on the button? [14:28] * Marfi dances and waits for ubuntu [14:28] how do I set iptables to forward udp port 1234 over a specific interface?

[14:31] gutsy has been our for a while, hardy is still in release candidate [14:31] koudelka: I don't use a gui [14:31] berzerka: you've done what you you've done to your system by doing your own things, not reading the docs and trying to be clever [14:32] berzerka: if you knew it wasn't out, why point it at the repo's [14:32] does anyone know if its possible to connect multiple webcams to a single machine and combine the feeds into one split screen stream for broadcasting to a remote location? [14:32] ikonia: iptables -A FORWARD -p udp --sport 1234 --dport 1234 -i eth1? [14:32] nixnoob: multiple webcams, yes, combining them, you would need some appliction [14:32] nixnoob: zoneminder may be able to do that [14:32] REyM: thats it [14:32] REyM: something along those lines [14:32] ok Z) [14:33] nixnoob: in fact, zoneminder CAN do that iirc [14:33] TheOV, thank you i will check it out.

[14:35] !codenames | berzerka [14:35] berzerka: Ubuntu has awesome release codenames. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DevelopmentCodeNames for more [14:35] because the live cd keeps dropping me into a shell which gives me no way to install according to yall [14:35] j2daosh: so what are you doing ? [14:35] anyone see any real advantage of using 8.04 to 7.10? [14:35] noodles12: Please join #ubuntu+1 for Hardy/8.04 support/discussion. [14:35] j2daosh: if you can't install what are you trying to install xorg on ? [14:35] How to make network manager forget wifi passwords? [14:35] noodles12: updated software, better hardware support, etc.. [14:36] hi [14:36] trying to reconfigure xorg so i can get a screen so i can install linux [14:36] I notice whe I boot Ubuntu I always have to manually activate numbers lock, what do I need to edit so that it automatically starts? [14:36] will ubuntu 8.04 will be released tomorrow? [14:36] j2daosh: where thought ??? your using the oem command line arn't you ? [14:36] is it safe to remove xterm as Im never using it? [14:36] j2daosh: That will not work, please use the Alternate install CD if you cannot use the graphical installer [14:36] j2daosh: why are you not listening to the advice of people around you [14:36] ycy, Hardy will be released some time during the 24th, i.e: there is no exact time. You can await the announcement in #ubuntu-release-party [14:36] Adys: I'd advise agains it [14:36] Adys: it's very small and linked to xorg [14:36] ikonia: oh, i interchanged gutsy and hardy in my question. but it remains the same: is the repo already in the state the release will be or did i get the RC? [14:36] hi cna someone tell me why does it take 3-5min for my shutdown options to popup when i click on the button? [14:36] Ubuntu is not detecting my hardware raid, but detects the physical drives themselves. How do I get it to recognise the raid? [14:36] hrm aight [14:36] !final > berzerka (Please see the private messsage from ubotu) [14:37] ikonia: why are you not reading what i type.... i went to NORMAL option o installing, it dropped me into a shell [14:37] Baby_Shambl3s: extremely slow computer? [14:37] not the oem version although that does the same [14:37] ikonia: ip-tables o_0 wrong person [14:37] j2daosh: use the alternative cd as you';ve been advised [14:37] Orbixx: what sort of 'hardware' raid? an actual real hardware arid or one of those onboard fakeraids? [14:37] dystopianray: sadly i wish that was the case but its not [14:37] dystopianray: Not sure. It's onboard and has it's own bios. [14:38] dystopianray: It uses a jmicro chipset. [14:38] Orbixx: ok so it is fakeraid, you need special driver support for it [14:38] Orbixx: then it will be "fakeraid" which has terrible support under linux [14:38] How to make network manager forget wifi passwords? So that it would prompt for password again, i had to change it in my router configuration [14:38] Orbixx: that it not true hardware raid [14:38] Ah. [14:38] Right now its using the old one.. [14:38] In performance terms, is fakeraid any worse than real? [14:38] dystopianray: its seriously starting to bug me that when i click shutdown to get the options it takes that long to appear and my desktop becomes innactive i know its soemthing to do with one of the updates [14:38] numbers lock anyone! [14:38] Orbixx: real = $1000 fake raid = bundled on a $100 motherboard [14:38] Orbixx: you work it out ;) [14:38] Orbixx: depends on the sort of raid you have setup, it can be worse as the cpu has to do all the work [14:39] I see. [14:39] i will about have the same system now as i will have it tomorrow after the release, nice. btw. the upgrade went super-smooth, even with debian i had more issues at some point. not to mention fedora. i was always very suspicious of ubuntu but i must say: nice job! [14:39] Trust me to be installing Ubuntu 1 day before release... [14:39] hi cna someone tell me why does it take 3-5min for my shutdown options to popup when i click on the button? [14:40] Baby_Shambl3s: what version of ubuntu [14:40] Orbixx: i'm not sure about jmicro controllers, but i beleive dmraid can handle lots of fakeraid controllers [14:40] !raid | Orbixx [14:40] Orbixx: Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO - For software RAID, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FakeRaidHowto [14:40] berzerka: how fortunate for you ive have had dpkg lockdown because of update, screen res problems etc and now this issue with shutdown options [14:40] Orbixx: dmraid = in my personal view - poor [14:40] ikonia: installed ubuntu hard beta 8 and updated a couple of times [14:40] Orbixx: you may want to investigate linux software raid, which is a high calibre [14:41] ikonia: I want to dual boot windows on the same raid. [14:41] Baby_Shambl3s: yes you can see all teh discussion in this channel of people saying "support in #ubuntu+1 for hardy" yet your still asking [14:41] Orbixx: good luck with that [14:41] Baby_Shambl3s: check out resoulution of your localhost name [14:41] * calc doubts the ubuntu desktop cd will get respun again before release [14:41] ikonia i dont have res probs anymore [14:41] Koheleth: On my machines, num lock is normally a bios setting, however if not, this may help http://ubuntulog.wordpress.com/2007/08/11/turning-on-num-lock-on-ubuntu-start/ [14:42] Baby_Shambl3s: thats the most common cause [14:42] hey everyone [14:42] thanks [14:42] aptitude reinstall does not really overwrite files, how can i change that? [14:42] should i try locating the packages locally and then dpkg --force-overwrite .. or what? [14:42] ikonia: funny enought i dotn know why i aint in ""+1, i was sure it was this channel hmm still getting used to irssi [14:42] sawyer_: or just --purge them and then reinstall [14:43] sipior, thought i should, but these have too many dependencies [14:43] plan9 utilities overwrite some common binaries such as grep, sed, awk, echo, etc. [14:43] i think you can force it anyway, as long as you immediately reinstall :-) [14:43] trying to purge awk .. the system don't like it :) [14:43] does everyone else's emacs highlight python properly ? [14:44] sawyer_: really? that seems like a poor practise... [14:44] oh it is! [14:44] those &*%!_#! [14:44] either way, a kind of annoying thing is aptitude not really overwriting files [14:44] i cringed at writing mv grep{,.old} && aptitude reinstall grep && rm grep.old [14:45] cu [14:45] hello all [14:45] ! gconfig [14:45] Sorry, I don't know anything about gconfig - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [14:45] sipior, question is, does aptitude and all the rest use "echo" for stuff [14:46] cuz otherwise removing binutils could be fatal and i wouldn't be able to install anything back [14:46] sipiro: go figure, rm -rf'ed the /usr/local/mono-1.9 directory and it solved it [14:46] o_O [14:46] sawyer_: yeah, bit risky, isn't it? does apt-get actually overwrite files? might be worth a try... [14:46] weird [14:46] regarding my question earlier about interactively merging config files. i've done it in ubuntu now by backgrounding the apt process and using `sdiff -o` to interactively merge the file and file.dpkg.new. other distros (gentoo, debian) offer an option for this in the installer itself. ubuntu does not? [14:46] sipiro = sipior [14:46] sipior, i thought they would be using the same functions but i'll try [14:46] thansk [14:46] :P [14:46] *thanks [14:46] deserteagle: not sure what was going on there, but i'm glad you got it fixed [14:47] hey all! anyone here Ubuntu Certified? [14:47] sipior: i appreciate your help bro, never thought of creating another user for bug fixing :P [14:47] i know that this is not the right channel, but can any onw give me help on the ppc 6700/vx 6700? [14:47] Bigsniperboy885: if you know it's not the right channel, don't ask ! [14:48] could you point me to the right channel? [14:48] Bigsniperboy885: no [14:48] thanks [14:48] ikonia: bit of urea in the corn flakes this morning, my friend? :-) [14:48] Bigsniperboy885: try #linux maybe [14:48] sipior: what ? [14:48] I added sudo modprobe ndiswrapper to my startup progams under my session editor, do I need to do anything more than that to get it to run on boot? [14:48] ikonia: a joke [14:48] sipior: sorry, went over my head [14:49] Bigsniperboy885: depending on what you want to know, try ##hardware [14:49] ... [14:49] how do i 'kick' bittorrent ? [14:49] ng0n: you mean like 'uninstall'? [14:50] ng0n: or more in the sense of 'push', open a port maybe^^ [14:50] no.. i mean push it. it got blocked... [14:50] What is the standard partition layout of Ubuntu? [14:50] Is there a doc that explains porting FreeBSD apps to linux/ubuntu ? [14:50] it was working. fine. [14:50] Orbixx: there isn't one [14:50] not port issue. [14:50] Fat32 works just find orbixx but if your dead set on NTSF it'll work too [14:50] ng0n: what is not working? [14:50] i have 2 sessions open, they errored out by firewall being locked.. [14:51] ng0n: well check your firewall settings. [14:51] ng0n: fix your firewall [14:51] i unlocked firewall.. one session restarted, the other is just sitting. [14:51] ng0n: shut it down, restart it [14:51] ya. [14:51] gabbs: not to my knowledge. ideally the app is already posix-compliant, and not *too* much needs to be done... [14:52] tnx. === BeTa_ is now known as BeTa [14:53] Orbixx: if you are talking about the "Guided" install it will just create one big partition and swap for you.... [14:53] does anyone know of any tutorials for installing libusb-1.0 in ubuntu? [14:54] ragazzi non mi distalla un pachetto e mi dice di fare apt-get install -f ma no funziona che faccio manco synaptic mi viene in aiuto che fo? [14:54] o i c. stop.. then resume. that's the 'kick' process. [14:54] is there a command to start chatzilla rather than opening FF all the time and selecting it from tools? === SoUkSoU[Away] is now known as SoUkSoU [14:55] Hi brothers!i want to install the linux from harddisk by grub4dos .the disk named sdb1 in linux where iso files and isolinux locate has only one partition, so i should edit the menu.lst like this :kernel (sdb1)/isolinux/vmlinuz ,right? [14:56] nixnoob: are you having trouble compiling it? why are you looking for ubuntu-specific instructions? [14:58] berzerka, no not compiling it gives no errors just doesnt make a kernel module? [14:58] howdy. i just saw the homepage. 1 more day utnil the nexxt release? [14:59] nixnoob: could you rephrase that please? what are you trying to do and what does not work? [14:59] I'm curious... how long till the 64 bit release ugprade?? [14:59] woohfat: tomorrow [14:59] woohfat: 32-bit and 64-bit will be released at the same time [14:59] v0lksman: all archs release the same time? [14:59] ah, k [14:59] yep [15:00] woohfat: When It's Ready (tm) [15:00] :) [15:00] you can grab the RC today and just patch tomorrow if you want... :) [15:00] RSN [15:00] nixnoob: as i see it, libusb is a userspace library and not a kernel module. [15:00] nixnoob: i might be mistaken. [15:00] are any of u running the 64bit version? [15:01] I am on my Myth box...I chickened out on my desktop though...too reliant on things working properlly.. :) [15:01] Is there no GetDeb repo anymore? Who has got it work? [15:01] haven't tested the common issues though...(IE flash) [15:01] my HDD and partitions for Ubuntu are being mounted from the wrong device, and I think it's causing slow-downs and errors. How can I fix it? (like half a minute for the log off, etc menu to pop up, a few minutes for gparted to scan devices) [15:02] nixnoob: it is definitely a userspace lib. now what is your problem? [15:02] Chaotic_Descent: /etc/fstab is where all that is configured [15:02] hi [15:02] Chaotic_Descent: if it actually works and your ubuntu boots then it is correct [15:03] berzerka, well im trying to use a alpha webcam userspace tool to see if it works with my cam [15:03] it depends on libusb [15:03] well I fail at linux, How can I get the terminal command: sudo modprobe ndiswrapper to go after I login? I put it in the sessions boot up section but that didn't work === xxx is now known as cicciopasticcio [15:03] nixnoob: you were looking for instructions on installing libusb. [15:03] berzerka, when i run the userspace webcam capture app i get a libusb error [15:03] hello.. my ubuntu wont recognize my external usb drive.. anyone help? [15:03] zepherin: woah...you should be adding ndiswrapper to /etc/modules or something along those lines.... [15:04] berzerka, thats why im assuming its a problem with how im using libusb [15:04] Does new version of Ubuntu support encryption? [15:04] The graphical installer I mean [15:04] Frozenball: yes [15:04] Frozenball: not the graphical intaller [15:04] nixnoob: that is very different from _installing_ libusb. remember the 1.0 branch is in development, so it might very well just be a bug/incompatibility/whatever in your software/libusb. nothing ubuntu-specific, that's for sure. [15:04] so put that command in /etc/modules? I could try that [15:05] any one could help.. my ubuntu doesnt recognize one of my external usb drives.. === kserv_identify is now known as j2daosh [15:05] good morning [15:05] zepherin: nono...if anything just ndiswrapper...but I think that is wrong....try running this and reboot 'sudo ndiswrapper -m' [15:05] i've a little problem: [15:05] can i know wat frozen ball is???? [15:05] why is it that the banshee people can't make a decent sized desktop icon for their app? is it just me who always gets a super-small icon just for this app? [15:05] berzerka, well im sure that the webcam app and libusb are compatible the dev wrote both of them and it specifically says in his blog that the webcam app depends on libusb-1.0 [15:06] berzerka, thanks for trying to help me [15:06] any one help? [15:06] nixnoob: is the webcam app in the ubuntu repository? [15:06] fstab shows /dev/sda2 and sda5 (my two partitions on the drive) , but it's supposed to be /dev/sdc2 and sdc5. C, not A. [15:06] gparted shows my drive and it's partitions are /dev/sdc [15:06] ok: rebooting [15:06] Is there no GetDeb repo anymore? Who has got it work? [15:07] nixnoob: or did you build it yourself? (can't really be in the repo, since it relies on libusb-1.0, which is not..) [15:07] I wanted to install ubuntu on my hd, so i resized my windows partition with ubuntu live cd, then i restarted the pc a windows didn't start. So i installed ubuntu, and after this installation, when i choose WINDOWS in grub menu, it continues to not start... why? [15:07] berzerka, yes i did [15:07] Ubuntu boots, but it keep forgetting to keep my other drives and partitions mounted, and there are these glitches and slow-downs. [15:07] Is there a HOWTO or FAQ for running a 64-bit kernel on a 32-bit userspace? [15:07] zepherin: still here? [15:07] berzerka, none of this is in the repos [15:07] berzerka, hang on ill be right back [15:08] ???? [15:08] Can I just change it from sda to sdc in fstab? they each have fancy UUID= strings. [15:08] Caotic_Descent, you can add entries to fstab [15:08] but be careful... [15:08] Chaotic_Descent, but the uuid would not be the same [15:08] very careful [15:09] reizend: I had a feeling that was the case. (but have no idea what UUID is) [15:09] Chaotic_Descent: this may help http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=283131 [15:09] thanks. [15:09] nixnoob: as long as the dev didn't mention any specific version of libusb-1.0, i guess you can't be sure your app is compatible since libusb-1.0 is only a development "branch" whose API might be changing. [15:09] Chaotic_Descent, the uuid should not be neccessary [15:10] so I could change sda to sdc, and remove the UUID? [15:10] nixnoob: anyways, you would better contact the people involved in your webcam app or libusb, since i see no ubuntu-specific problems here. [15:10] it's an either or thing....so either you use to the UUID to identify the partition or you user /dev/sdx [15:11] Chaotic_Descent: go through that page I sent you and you should see how to add a line [15:11] I see how to find the UUID. so I guess I use that. [15:11] !uuid | Chaotic_Descent [15:11] Chaotic_Descent: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell: « sudo blkid » (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID) [15:11] No go volksman: I had to input sudo modprobe ndiswrapper still, I tried sudo nidswrapper -m before the earlier one but it told me that it already had an alias directive [15:12] zepherin: check in /etc/modules is there a line for ndiswrapper? [15:12] .... oh wait. my two partitions on the new drive for Ubuntu are commented out. how is it booting Ubuntu? [15:12] commented out in fstab. [15:12] Heya [15:12] I finished that tutorial thing. [15:12] I came across the same problem [15:12] what? [15:12] the comment just tells you in dev terms what partition it is...the UUID is actually being used to mount it [15:13] http://jewbuntu.blogspot.com/ [15:13] so even though it's commented out in fstab, I need to correct it to make it work properly? [15:13] I'll make more updates as I do things on the system :) [15:13] Kcaj[UBuntu]: Please dont do that, this is a support channel. [15:13] no just fuse and lp, but I tried adding ndiswrapper and it wouldn't let me save [15:13] nope..the comment is just that.... [15:13] That is a support link :O [15:14] if you want to change the mount you will need to update the UUID or replace it altogether with /dev/sd(x)(n) [15:14] Kcaj[UBuntu]: No, its a link to your blog. [15:14] A support blog :O do you see any other psots besides "installing Ubuntu"? :P [15:14] So... I need to edit it AND make it not a comment?? [15:15] hahaha....no....the comment remains a comment...the comment is there to tell a Human what device the UUID is referencing... [15:15] does anyone know of a way to do mailmerger with ooo, or thunderbird, or even evolution? [15:15] for emails? === sdakak is now known as confused [15:15] Kcaj[UBuntu], are you under house arrest? [15:15] basic format of fstab: [15:15] okay. I had been using firefox3 for a while now, always answering "decide later" to the annoying prompt at the start. Now I finally clicked "keep firefox 3" -- and the exact opposite happened. I lost everything I had changed since moving to ff3, and was reverted to ff2 bookmarks and settings. is there any way to get my bookmarks back? [15:16] Zelta: Yeah until May [15:16] ...lol [15:16] so the can be either a UUID or the hard dev id (/dev/sdc1) [15:16] but you told me I needed to change fstab... I mean, one of the partitions is mounted despite not being in fstab, and that's the one that boots Ubuntu. the other one doesn't mount. neither are in fstab. [15:16] dammit, what happened. [15:16] these are not my channels [15:16] >.< [15:17] !uuid > v0lksman (Please see the private messsage from ubotu) [15:17] Ubuntu networking is giving me a lot of problems in my laptop. I need to switch between LANS at my work, and the wireless at my home. I know how to use the network-admin dialog. But it screws up so often. I get socioflags error, sometimes dns resolution doesn't work. And sometimes networking just doesn't work without any reasons. [15:17] Pici: I know the reason for the transition...but he is confused as to what is actually mounting the devices... [15:18] Ok I added ndiswrapper to /etc/modules I'm going to try to restart [15:18] berzerka, im back is there anything else you wanted to say [15:18] v0lksman: Ah, I thought you were looking for a way to translate uuid to devices, nevermind then [15:18] confused: network-manager doesn't do it automatically for you? [15:18] Pici: nope...trying to translate confusion... ;) [15:18] Chaotic_Descent: can you pastbin your fstab and the output of the 'mount' command? [15:18] thoreauputic: It doesn't do anything for me. I know how to set the gateway, ip, dns and I do it manually. And it works quite often. But it breaks down too often. === co_mo_CO is now known as ryo_pengin_punya [15:19] I'll try. [15:19] confused: So network-manager doesn't "Just Work" for you at all?

[15:22] confused: sounds like you are choosing manual - if you use dhcp that isn't necessary [15:22] This is starting to be scary [15:22] just the ndiswrapper not the hole string [15:22] thoreauputic: Both my home and network don't have dhcp. [15:22] pici:i just saw it in this xchat someone was talking abt it. [15:22] confused: Hmmm - by choice? [15:23] thoreauputic: I know the subnets, the gateway, the dns, the wpa keys. I put in everything at the proper place. And for no reason it refuses to work when I switch lan wires [15:23] sridevi: Frozenball is a user in this channel. [15:23] thoreauputic: my work doesn't have dhcp because of the network admin. [15:23] thoreauputic: And I don't need a dhcp at my home [15:23] thoreauputic: Can you tell me how to clear everything associated with my network and start from scratch? [15:23] confused: I think n-m gets confused by static configs and falls over [15:23] nixnoob: well it looks like the device file you are intending to open is not present or you don't have permission to access it. check if you do. [15:23] thoreauputic: Like how would a plain ubuntu install be? [15:24] thoreauputic: Can I just not have the network manager? I am ready to key in everything in the network-admin and toggle it myself [15:24] confused: If you know you only ever use static Ips I would simply uninstall network-manager [15:24] thoreauputic: I don't want the 'just work' facility [15:24] thoreauputic: Are you sure it is causing all these problems? [15:24] confused: Yes, you can uninstall n-m [15:24] berzerka, im not quite sure how i would do that, but if i issue the command using sudo then the permissions problem should go away (i think) but it doesnt [15:25] confused: No - I'm not there to troubleshoot :) But removing it would tell you [15:25] pici:i cant see nebody here by this name [15:25] thoreauputic: When I say System>Network what is that utility called? [15:25] sridevi: I do [15:25] thoreauputic: And how do i start network-manager? [15:25] bonjours [15:26] are the releases of Xubuntu or edubuntu generally syncronized with a new release of Ubuntu, or do they tend to follow a couple days/weeks/months later? [15:26] MrBill: excatly the same time [15:26] nixnoob: maybe the file is really non-existent [15:26] ok, cool. thanks. [15:26] confused: Umm - for troubleshooting purpose, uninstall network-manager-gnome and network-manager, see if that helps. If not then the problem is elsewhere, right? [15:26] hello everyone [15:26] nixnoob: question is: which file? i don't know the workings of libusb, sadly... [15:27] nixnoob: can you specify a device file for you camera in you webcam app? [15:27] confused: You can put it back if that makes no difference [15:27] berzerka, well the webcam capture app was written for gentoo perhaps there is a different file structure? [15:27] thoreauputic: what is the utility in system>network called? [15:27] re [15:27] berzerka, i dunno lemme look at the docs [15:27] hi all [15:27] thoreauputic: It is through that that I key in all the info. [15:28] thoreauputic: Can I just ask the network manager to not take initiative? [15:28] nixnoob: device files are governed by udev, which is also in use on gentoo. so they should not differ principally, but the /dev layout might be different. [15:28] confused: netwrk-admin I think [15:28] thoreauputic: Can you tell me how to wipe all network configs and start afresh? [15:28] confused: network-admin [15:28] thoreauputic: Maybe the network manager can be tamed? [15:28] berzerka, yea thats what i was getting at im looking at the documentation now [15:28] nixnoob: is this the only error you get or is there a file path printed somewhere? check dmesg, please. [15:28] confused: Just uninstall it and see what happens! [15:28] hello all [15:29] nixnoob: dmesg | tail [15:29] confused: It's part of the troubleshooting [15:29] confused you can remove the file /etc/network/interfaces [15:29] confused: It's reversible [15:29] dite en fait dans iptables, le source sport et le dport servent à indiquer dans la règle quel sera le port qui sera utiliser par exemple dans output on met dport pour que ça renvoie vers le sport?

[15:30] can any1 here help me install beryl-compiz fusion 4 in ubuntu 7.04 64bit [15:30] berzerka, dmesg | tail outputs a bunch of stuff about my wifi connection and the last line says "No module found in object" [15:31] confused you can remove the file /etc/network/interfaces and recreate a fresh one [15:31] confused: I'm not stuck. I'm suggesting a troubleshooting procedure [15:31] how can the drives be partitioned???? [15:31] thoreauputic: Can you tell me how to search the ubuntu wiki and community docs properly? I never get results. === eroticon is now known as erot1con [15:31] amenado: ok.

[15:31] nixnoob: well it was worth a try :) [15:31] thoreauputic: I never saw the n-m gui though. Where does it lie? [15:31] i want the detailed method [15:32] samoth13: Demandez ici en anglais, autrement veuillez voyagez à #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr [15:32] I've got nvidia twinview running, and compiz. Right now my windows maximize across both screens and I don't want them to. I've fixed this before, and I looked at the forums and found a bunch of 'ways to fix it' that didn't work for me [15:32] Hmm [15:32] omg here are so many messages around... it is hard to keep track [15:32] i have tried once but will be stuck at one point of time [15:32] confused: Usually all you see is the applet icon in the notification area [15:32] thoreauputic-> n-m is just a front end gui in my opinion..ultimatimately is the interfaces files thats needed [15:32] nixnoob: you said you built the tool from source? i would simply find the place where the error message you encounter is printed and change the code to print the filename next to it. [15:32] can someone tell me plz????? [15:32] berzerka, no nothing in the way of switches i could pass to the application [15:32] sridevi: what is the problem [15:33] is there a reason to keep "language-pack-en" and "language-pack-gnome-en" if its the only language pack on the system? [15:33] berzerka, thats gonna take a little digging but its a good idea [15:33] thoreauputic: amenado: you know once I had removed that interfaces file and then it took 30 minutes everytime to start my laptop. Then ikonia suggested putting in some "lo" back in that file and it became well. [15:33] amenado: NO, it is well known that n-m doesn't like having anything in /etc/network/interfaces except the loopback [15:33] berzerka, u gonna stick around ill go looking now? [15:33] thoreauputic: Oh yes. Loopback it was. [15:33] confused: correct - you only need the loopback in that file [15:34] confused-> i just advised you now of removing and refreshing the interfaces file, how can it be 30 minutes already? === Jaymac1 is now known as Jaymac [15:34] bbiab. [15:34] nixnoob: yup. [15:34] 8.04 Will release tomorrow. [15:34] confused: But that is only for using n-m - if you want manual config only, it's better to remove n-m [15:34] the problem is i cant specify the drive name correctly [15:34] thoreauputic: Can I use n-m if I need to manually put my ip, gateway, dns, wpa keys all different for different networks? [15:35] amenado: If you noticed I was talking about a past experience [15:35] nixnoob: hmm seeing that the error actually comes from libusb it might be difficult to grep for it... good luck.

[15:35] sridevi: sudo gparted [15:35] does anyone know how to enable tvout without having a monitor plugged in? [15:35] berzerka, ok i found the section of code in the webcam app that prints the error message but im not a programmer so i dont really kno what to do. [15:35] confused didnt know that as you have not said from previous experience, im not taking any assumption [15:36] confused: fdisk -l [15:36] confused: Theoretically yes. In fact the Debian and Ubuntu versions of n-m don't like that. I think the hardy version might have fixed the conflict, but I don't know that for sure [15:36] nixnoob: lets open a private chat.. [15:36] is any1 here free to talk? [15:36] thoreauputic: Alright I will junk it. But the network-admin will remain perfectly usable won't it?

[16:02] its sayin gparted is not a command in mine [16:02] tomorrow [16:02] VHAIN, Hardy will be released some time during the 24th, i.e: there is no exact time. You can await the announcement in #ubuntu-release-party [16:02] deserteagle, did you look at the appdb for wine [16:02] deserteagle: did you try /etc/init.d/vboxdrv [16:02] frostburn: Can you tell what the /etc/network/ scrips are? the interesting ones? [16:02] thanks! [16:02] ikonia: you still there? [16:02] thoreauputic: yes [16:02] Jack_Sparrow: it's Vbox [16:03] Jack_Sparrow: no, it needed .net, installed mono, crashed my system horribly [16:03] k [16:03] deserteagle: did you run it with sudo ?

[16:04] yes [16:04] i think [16:04] adduser vboxusers right? [16:04] gpasswd i think [16:04] deserteagle: is this the downloaded version or the ose version from the repos ? [16:05] so.. i deleted a file. but it's still there. [16:05] repos [16:05] thoreauputic: OK i keyed in my network info in the network-admin. Now when i ping my router it says Network is unreachable. [16:05] Skiessi: no, adduser is fine [16:05] i think [16:05] but where. not in /trash or /root/trash [16:05] sdakak, /root/.gnome2/network-admin-locations/ [16:05] deserteagle: you ran sudo adduser vboxusers , then logged out and in again? [16:06] yep [16:06] ng0n, try using find or locate to see if it really still exists [16:06] can anyone help? [16:06] the logout part is crucial [16:06] frostburn: That was god send :) [16:06] sparrow. it's an acronis .tib file. i searched on .tib. found another one.. but not the one i deleted. [16:06] frostburn: will my user have the same files in /home/user/*? [16:06] thoreauputic: yeh, funny enough none of the manuals, how-to's and wikis mentioned that [16:06] it's on a NTFS partition [16:07] sdakak, i don't believe so, since it requires root access to run [16:07] ng0n, the ntfs partition has its own .Trash-yournick [16:07] man, if i'd KNOW delete was not delete.. uggg. [16:07] deserteagle: so, is it working now? If not you may be missing a modules package or similar [16:07] ok. [16:07] #ubuntu-fr [16:07] thoreauputic: funny... when i launch it command line, it says i need virtualbox-ose-modules-generic, which i installed already. furthermore, it says character device /dev/vboxdrv does not exist, which i see on the directory [16:07] frostburn: what does search-domains=example.org mean?

[16:33] hey guys, a very general ubuntu question: As far as security goes, is it safer to put ubuntu 6.04 in production because it's had a longer run or am I smarter to use the late release coming out tomorrow? [16:33] thoreauputic: Thought you do understand that re-configuring the network has made it a firewall config issue don't you?

I have to stop firestarter to browse. [16:34] Sake: depends on your requirements and uses, really. [16:34] stager: although it doesn't answer your question, i'd recommend installing the hardy RC - it's going to be LTS so it will be better for your server install [16:34] sdakak: hint: check outgoing permissions on port 80 in firestarter [16:35] whats LTS?

I meant 8.04, of course :P [16:37] Has anyone had any problems installing the gutsy gibbon server install? ---- did you get an answer to this? I just started paying attention on this channel :) (Im working a bit) [16:37] Fritzel : what shell you scripting in [16:37] Mimi: no but i am going to try the LTS install [16:37] Fritzel: no; a shell spawns a new shell to run the script and the closes it iirc [16:37] wikzo: It could be pretty much anytime during the 24th (from GMT) [16:37] genii: Ok [16:37] hey does anyone know the exact release time of hardy in GMT time ? [16:37] sdakak, no prob [16:38] Fritzel: so the variable only lives through the live of the script [16:38] rwycuff, erUSUL: bash, and alright is there a way to make it exist outside the script? the entire purpose of the script is to set WINEDEBUG easily so I sort of need it to [16:38] stager: the reason i ask is because when I tried to install, and then boot, it gives a kernel panic saying cpu is too old for this kernel. easy fix is to install linux-generic kernel. Is this the problem you had? [16:39] er wait nevermind I can use an alias [16:39] anyone ? [16:39] Mimi: No i wasnt even able to install it from scratch. it would stop at 86% and say "Installing the base system fail" [16:39] Fritzel:google for shell script piping for bash and you can pipe data where ever you want it [16:39] Yodude: It could be pretty much anytime during the 24th (from GMT) [16:40] stager, oh oh ok :) thanks for letting me know [16:40] Yodude: no. It will be officially released when all the mirrors are synced [16:40] genii: ah ok, thnx for your help [16:40] Mimi: no prob [16:40] rwycuff, ok thanks ^^ [16:40] Yodude: no one knows exactly [16:40] thoreauputic: kk [16:40] bye every one [16:40] ;) [16:40] time to sleep [16:41] ok.. i got NTFS write support. when i used delete before i think it just deleted the icon on the drive menu. how do i get the icon back [16:41] thnx guys n cu on hardy soon [16:42] How do I find the URL to a deb available from a repo in my sources.list? === thoreauputic changed the topic of #ubuntu to: Official Ubuntu Support Channel | Important: type « /msg ubotu etiquette » | Be patient and read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FAQ | Support options: http://www.ubuntu.com/support | IRC info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC | Pastes to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org | Hardy (8.04 LTS) RC support in #ubuntu+1 - party in #ubuntu-release-party | No. we don't know exactly the time when 8.04 will be released.

[16:45] I just got my new server in for the office, and I'm wondering if anyone could advise me on whether or not I 'should' use the 64 bit version of the server dist... in other words, am I going to find that some software in the repos is not available for 64bit? [16:46] Vlet, if its a high volume server then I would go 64-bit [16:46] Vlet only binary drivers and crap like adobe flash player pose problems for 64bit AFAIK [16:46] let me see... [16:46] anyone able to add an search engine to http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/ ? [16:47] I'm using the DNS pass-thru service from dyndns. I set up mycomputer.homelinux.org to point to my local server.

Yeah, it's dual quad xeons with 8 gigs of memory, so yeah, 64 bit would be a 'good thing'. Just wanted to double-check :) [16:47] benanzo: substitute for "moc" of course [16:47] so today ubuntu asked me to upgrade my firefox. and i did. and now it is completely broken. anyone have an idea?

[16:48] did someone call me ?

[16:49] stroganoff: thanks [16:49] Pici: ta, my last log isn't buffering long enough [16:49] saan this removed your profile directory, storing your settings and stuff [16:49] thoreauputic: that gives me the path without the domain -- I was hoping there was something that would show the full URL [16:49] ok, how do i make my display ALL of my laptop display? right now its showing about 680x800 of my 1024x768 screen [16:49] benanzo: the domain is wahtever you have in your /etc/apt/sources.list [16:50] j2daosh: change the resolution [16:50] i tried, it just changes the resolution of the little square box it is currently displaying in [16:50] stroganoff: any idea how i can find out what broke it in the profile? I mean, there are passwords stored there, bookmarks, etc etc [16:50] benanzo: the part in the output is just tacked on to the correct path for the repository [16:50] Thanks again Stroganoff [16:50] saan restore the things you need (like bookmarks and passwords) and forget about the incident ;) [16:50] half my screen is just a black border basically [16:50] where does apt get the domain from? does it stitch them together? [16:50] ha ha [16:50] hi [16:50] j2daosh: view your xorg log to see what it thinks the situaton with your screen is [16:51] benanzo: for instance, http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/m/moc/ [16:51] and so on [16:52] I see thanks [16:52] ugh. it's not clear which files matter in the .mozilla directoyr. and actually, i had 4 different profiles [16:52] gotta wonder what really happened :( [16:52] benanzo: the urls are in /etc/apt/sources.list :) === bab is now known as bab_ [16:52] hello every body === bab_ is now known as bab [16:52] what am i looking for inside this output file? [16:52] but anyway, thanks [16:53] j2daosh: the definition of what it things your screen is [16:53] i see the various modes available, but i dont know which one its choosing [16:53] ok, lemme grep it === ratpoison is now known as pmratpoison [16:53] Yes but I was just thinking they were stored as meta data for each available package -- [16:53] I guess not [16:53] hi [16:54] which file is the password database for firefox? key.db? [16:54] saan: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Basic+troubleshooting#To_fix_the_problem_in_the_original_profile [16:54] excellent, thanks kbrosnan [16:54] benanzo: that would be redundant - suppose you change your preferred mirror [16:54] how do I restore 3D rendering after removing fglrx? I used to have simple 3D support with free ati driver, after uninstalling fglrx it doesn't work anymore. [16:54] its using 640x480 [16:54] do I need to reinstall something? some mesa package perhaps? [16:55] says it couldn't find a mode for the 1024x768, but that is mode 34 [16:55] j2daosh: thats not the screen definition, thats resolution [16:55] is there a way I can keep bash from putting a space in when it sets a variable? this is my problem http://pastebin.com/d67293c7c [16:55] benanzo: apt only needs the last part - if the mirror address changes it still works [16:55] j2daosh: what video card is this on [16:55] cheers folks, merci [16:55] morning [16:55] j2daosh:I've seen similar issues with ati cards [16:55] a pos intel 828 onboard [16:55] Ahh yes, good point [16:55] DexterF: change driver in Xorg.conf from vesa to ati [16:55] j2daosh: what driver is xorg using for it ? [16:55] Stroganoff: it *is* the old xorg.conf, I backed it up [16:56] so then how do I find in which repo a package is in? [16:56] benanzo: http://packages.ubuntu.com [16:56] not just ubuntu packages [16:56] Would reinstalling the kernel fix a kernel panic? [16:56] benanzo: that is right there in the output of the apt-cache show [16:56] grims: depends on the panic [16:56] i810 [16:56] benanzo click the "origin" button in synaptic [16:56] j2daosh: try changing it to the intel driver [16:57] benanzo: or apt-cache policy for that matter [16:57] j2daosh: I've never seen this issue with intel [16:57] noodlesgc: he's using apt :) [16:57] ok, what is the command for reconfiguring? [16:57] j2daosh: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg [16:57] j2daosh: select the intel driver and select only the resolution you want to use (not lower) [16:57] thoreauputic: i'm back [16:57] ikonia, the panic is happening within 2 hours of the computer being on even if it is idling. -- the hardware is fine (tested it [including ram with memtest]) and I am unsure what to do [16:57] thoreauputic: sorry 'bout that [16:58] grims: do you actually get the message kernel panic ? [16:58] no, thats what's weird about it -- it just locks up, and the keyboard lights flash [16:58] deserteagle: sorted out your problem? [16:58] grims: ok - so thats not a kernel panic [16:58] that command didn't work [16:58] installed 8.04 RC yesterday. Getting seemingly random mouse and keyboard lockup. Other system activity seems to continue, and when they become active again a few seconds later they catchup any typing/movement that occurred in the meantime. [16:58] thoreauputic: well, i think i'm down to getting the vboxdrv in /dev [16:58] j2daosh: what vesion of ubuntu are you using [16:58] dpkg -reconfigure xserver-xorg [16:58] SunRayCafe #ubuntu+1 [16:58] j2daosh: no space [16:58] ikonia, what do you think it could be then?

It will view HTML but will not view PHP it downloads PHP [17:00] anyone: i can't find the TRASH for NTFS drive. where would /.Trash-ng0n be ??? [17:00] j2daosh: there is no space, the command is dpkg-reconfigure [17:00] hmm... [17:00] noodlesgc, yes [17:01] LittleKiller: have you installed mod-php?

[17:35] Slart: REISUB is just BUSIER backwards [17:35] psymin: /join #ubuntu+1 [17:36] aha.. found it.. looks pretty neat.. never tried it myself.. http://flipsidereality.com/blog/nix/reisub/ [17:36] http://lifehacker.com/software/linux-tip/gently-restart-a-frozen-system-298891.php [17:36] l [17:36] hi all [17:36] cant view php files on local server html files work fine. evertying is installed..just went through the whole process again and have the same problem.......please any help would br very appreciated. [17:37] it downloads the php files... [17:37] thank you thoreauputic [17:37] I have two boxes, one is serving NFS the other is the client, if I reboot both boxes, the server requires a longer boot time than the client. If the server comes up AFTER the client, NFS never mounts and requires a manual (mount -a etc.) mount. [17:37] could you help me with hardy on a laptop [17:37] psymin: np [17:37] is there a way to force retry of initial mount when it fails (if the server goes down after its mounted once, it will remount it when it comes back, its only the initial mount that fails and won't retry) [17:38] Zarvox: hardy questions in #ubuntu+1 [17:38] robf: here is a poor solution .. have a cron that does mount -a every so often :) .. and another poor solution .. have rc set up an at command to call mount -a X minutes after boot [17:38] Hello. I want to buy printer|scanner|copier for my pc. I have installed ubuntu only. How do I choose the model? [17:38] Oh dear, librmagick-ruby1.8 isn't installable on hardy. See bug 220811. How can I discover if anyone is working on this bug? [17:38] tx thoreauputic [17:38] psymin: yeah we have a script to do it, but it seems there should be an internal method [17:38] Because I am afraid of compability of devices. [17:38] psymin: which is what I'm looking for, to reduce convolution [17:38] robf: If you find a way, I'd love to hear it too :) [17:39] who here has an eeepc? [17:39] psymin: heh... I'm wondering what differs from initial mount timeout/failure versus post mount loss of nfs server and then retrying when it comes back up.... [17:39] I mean what happens to that process...seems it hsould handle it the same both ways =\ [17:41] hi, i have a problem with two different drives, one is a partition of my hard disk and the other is a pendrive, both use fat32 filesystem. I copied a whole folder from the disk to the pendrive and now i'm looking at both from ubuntu. The folder in the pendrive shows ok, but in the disk it shows the filenames incorrectly (non-ascii characters like accented vowels are incorrectly displayed) [17:41] i can't see original dvd's on heron, error says it can't access the resource. restricted meta package installed [17:41] what confuses me is that in the pen drive they show up perfectly === platyhelminth_ is now known as platyhelminth [17:41] and the content of the pendrive is an exact copy of the folder in the other fat32 disk [17:41] any ideas what could cause this? [17:42] !libdvdcss [17:42] 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 [17:42] Boohbah: http://pastebin.com/m1b965cf8 that is the dmesg -- it locked up before i could get the other logs :[ [17:42] btw i copied the folders using windows [17:42] cant view php files on local server html files work fine. evertying is installed..just went through the whole process again and have the same problem.......please any help would br very appreciated.

[17:43] !#$@!$# [17:43] anyhow anyone know a channel that would be supportive of NFS? #nfs is kinda empty [17:43] LittleKiller: if nobody here knows you might try /j #ubuntu-server .. sometimes takes a while for an answer.. depends on how many are actually watching the screen [17:43] its my wireless rooter and i wanna crack it? [17:43] can anyone help me? [17:44] !rooter [17:44] Sorry, I don't know anything about rooter - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [17:44] !router [17:44] geo___: google returns literally thousands of howtos, [17:44] Sorry, I don't know anything about router - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [17:44] it's not a difficult thing to do, but definitely not supported in this channel [17:44] ok [17:44] thx [17:44] Boohbah and Slart: http://pastebin.com/m1b965cf8 that is the dmesg -- it locked up before i could get the other logs :[ [17:44] where are the .Trash files for NTFS drives located ? [17:44] and sysrq reisub did nothing lol [17:45] can anyone tell me a good dock program so I can get a dock like in osx [17:46] grims: didn't see anything special in there.. do you have the same problems if you run a live cd? [17:46] Slart, I will try that -- does it mean its a hardware problem if it does with the live cd? [17:47] geo___: cracking is definitely off-topic ( we can't know which questions are genuine for one thing) [17:47] Anyone have a dual monitor ATI set up? I'm trying to get bigdesktop working. Its working but wont display monitors max rez of 1680x1050 [17:47] why doesnt ifconfig give me "wlan0", while iwconfig does?! [17:47] hi all [17:47] grims: perhaps.. at least it will give us something more to work with [17:47] tell me a channel for cracking please [17:47] geo___: there is no such channel [17:47] isnt cracking illegal... [17:47] Geo -> join a new network [17:48] ok [17:48] geo___: No-one here is going to tell you such stuff [17:48] freenode is for OSS, it is not a generic IRC network [17:48] ok [17:48] geo___, don't even try 2600 [17:48] Andycasss: As far as I'm aware, the "w" in iwconfig is for "wireless" which is why that list wlan0 [17:48] geo___, figured I would tell you that before you read anything [17:49] Bidget: technically... no [17:49] "technically" no? [17:49] I'm annoyed [17:49] lol [17:49] Bidget: not if it's "your own" or permissable by whomever owns it [17:49] DJones: This is not the case, i want it to show up in ifconfig [17:49] thanks [17:49] I see [17:49] ok [17:49] but, typically you won't find it discussed since the usual reasons are not acceptable [17:49] but if its your own and you need to get into it why not just unplug it for a minute or two [17:49] Slart, I will run the live CD now -- how long are you on for [it may take a little bit before it locks] [17:49] Bidget: eh.. if its a router he doesn't need to do that, theres a lil reset button ;p [17:50] well yeah same thing [17:50] haha [17:50] Bidget: unplugging it doesn't work , (wrt~~ for example) lol , yeh [17:50] hm [17:50] grims: I'll be here for severtal hours still [17:50] just reset the settings... but it seems this isn't the case.. doesn't osund like he has physical access to the router [17:50] Slart, Ok -- thanks, I will go do it [17:50] I can't drag+click? All the default themes look worse than Windows 3.1. Now Windows Key + Shortcuts? [17:50] has anyone installed and configured an osx-like dock for their ubuntu 7.10? [17:50] Bidget: you can reset to factory defaults - but you lose your config unless you backed it up [17:50] otherwise he'd just use his password, or does he not know both password / wepkey [17:50] !awn | Bidget [17:50] Bidget: Avant Window Navigator, is a dock-like navigation bar for the linux desktop that positions itself at the bottom of the screen. Homepage http://wiki.awn-project.org/ Awn-Manager can be found the Gutsy !backports repository and in Universe in Hardy [17:50] ah yeah I guess that makes sense thoreauputic [17:51] oh thanks DJones [17:51] thoreauputic: but if you can't modify said settings eg. lost password, then the least of your worries is the unknown wep key + losing configs [17:51] bidget i use the mac osx dock bar [17:51] ok [17:51] i love it [17:51] geo___: seriously... google it, or maybe #backtrack has some folks in it [17:52] robf: yes - reconfiguring a router isn't rocket science :) [17:52] yeah Ive just been looking around to try and find a dock program cause my gf tried to use my computer a while ago and "couldnt figure it out" lol [17:52] thoreauputic: cracking wep is much much more time consuming ;p [17:52] that dock bar is pretty stable [17:52] and doesn't give you access to fix the problems you may also have lol [17:52] the mac one anyways [17:52] ok [17:52] has quite a few ad on;s too [17:52] what is it called? [17:53] just "mac osx dock" or something? [17:53] hmm... i think i found a guide on making the desktop look just like mac but the olny thing i used in the guide was the dock bar [17:53] hm ok [17:53] yeah check that [17:53] k [17:53] good luck [17:54] thanks [17:54] robf: of course, some people specialise in bricking routers by not following instructions ;p [17:54] oo you can brick routors wow [17:54] i bricked my psp onces [17:54] any clue about my problem? [17:54] apparently I can install linux on my router but I never tried cause I was scared to turn it into a paperweight lol === Spec[x] is now known as Spec === RT|AFK is now known as Randomtime [17:55] thay have some web site called tomato somting like that its linux for routors [17:55] i'm having the classic "/dev/dsp resource busy" error but can't find the culprit and don't want to. is there a way i can just "sudo mow-over-audio-and-bring-it-back"? [17:55] koro Im sure if you told everyone your problem someone might be able to help you with it [17:55] Bidget: i did :( [17:55] oh [17:55] does ubuntu support eather 64 bit or 32 cpu or both, or are there seperate versions for it ? [17:55] I scrolled up and didnt see anything haha [17:55] Hi all, could someone with a little more experience help me with a small recipe. I am not sure Ive got the order of the recipes right. [17:55] obvio171: reboot [17:55] kvaser, I have a 64-bit version [17:55] obvio171: "killall esd" often works [17:55] I'm really upset [17:56] Hi, I need to set up my sub infrared device on my ubuntu box...any help? [17:56] blankboy_: short of that :) [17:56] *usb [17:56] mcphail: it's not even up [17:56] Bidget: I copied a folder from a fat32 drive to a (fat32) pendrive using windows, and now when i look at them from ubuntu the copied folder (in the pendrive) shows up correctly but the source one shows incorrect non-ascii characters (e.g. accented characters are displayed as weird symbols) [17:56] any procmail experta around? [17:56] need some help. My usplash is set to 640x480 by default and it looks gigantic on my screen so when i try and change it either with startupmanager or manually though /boot/grub/menu.lst the color on the ubuntu logo gets all messed up. how can i fix this? [17:56] obvio171: sorry that the M$ guide :P [17:56] bidget does it work better with the 64 bit ? [17:56] hi guys, what's a good flow chart / diagram creation tool for ubuntu/linux? [17:56] where is the "what's new" on the website about the new ubuntu that is coming [17:56] kvaser, Ive never used the 32-bit so I couldn't really tell you [17:57] kvaser, I imagine it would work pretty much the same although 64-bit instead of 32-bit haha [17:57] koro: sounds like a limitation of fat32 ( characters etc.) [17:57] i mean, about what the new is bringing [17:57] Hello. How often are the translations updated from launchpad? [17:57] alex123: i've heard of Dia, but haven't used it myself [17:57] i suppose that all new cpu today are 64 ? [17:57] obvio171, thanks i'll check it out [17:57] hi, does anyone know if there is a working set of prc-tools for 64bits? [17:57] kvaser, a high majority I think yeah [17:57] kvaser, mine isn't [17:58] so core2duo cpu are 64 bit ? [17:58] yes [17:58] ok ok. i found .Trash-ng0n on the NTFS drive ! how do i empty it ? [17:58] Bidget, are you sure core2duo are 64 bit? [17:59] mariusp, Im about 99% sure yeah... why, is there one specific model that isn't? [17:59] do i just erase .Trash-ng0n , earse the file [17:59] ng0n: is it a file or directory? [17:59] mariusp, all of the core2's I looked at buying were 64-bit [17:59] Bidget, no. I was just convinced that they were 32 bit :) Wikipedia proved otherwise... [17:59] mariusp, core2duos are 64 bit [17:59] Boo. it's a directory [18:00] mariusp, ah ok [18:00] ng0n: rm .Trash-ng0n/* [18:00] that contains file i want to get rid of.. i need the space for a backup. [18:00] errr, how can I have vnc working before login? [18:00] Slart, Got it to lock up on the live cd [18:00] Boo. [18:00] normal vnc remote desktop from preferences works great... but if I reboot, I lose access until I login manually. [18:01] Boo. ok. i understand the command. but how do I invoke it. [18:01] can i get to NTFS from terminal ? [18:01] grims: hmm.. also after 20 minutes? even if you leave the computer alone.. not using it? [18:01] hi, I have ubuntu installed on the whole hard drive which contains one partition, is there a way to make another partition by taking space of the one where ubuntu is installed? [18:01] ok so I was asking about the osx dock thing and someone linked me to this AWN program... if I use it, will it replace compiz and take all my nice effects away? [18:01] meh [18:01] dcc doesn work on xhcat gnome [18:01] so if i try and install the new ubuntu it will automaticly run in 64 bit mode on my cpu, i have never tried linux as installed, only on live cd [18:01] Slart, Took about 5 minutes on the live CD and I was using firefox -- but normally if I let it just sit it will lockup on the HD after about 20 minutes to an hour. [18:02] kvaser, yes... if you install the amd64 version [18:02] what's new on the new ubuntu that is coming ? [18:02] thoreauputic: both drives have fat32, one shows correct filenames, the other does not [18:02] thoreauputic: so that doesn't make sense [18:02] but i have intel cpu [18:02] xjkx, http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/804rc [18:03] kvaser, intel core 2 duo? [18:03] yes [18:03] koro: both viewd from linux? [18:03] !hardy [18:03] 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 - Support in #ubuntu+1 - Come join the #ubuntu-release-party now! [18:03] news just in, ubuntu will no longer support intel in the next release [18:03] *viewed === toby is now known as theverdant [18:03] kvaser, tha installer for 64bit version supports amd64, intel core 2 duo... so you wont have any prob [18:03] oh what its april 24th now?? I thought it was supposed to be released today [18:03] grims: have you checked your memory? [18:04] Slart, yes -- using memtest86+ and it passed all tests [18:04] I find it odd that they call it amd64 if it also supports intel haha... you think they'd just call it 64bit [18:04] My wlan adapter doesnt see any nearby stations, why? [18:04] ok so I was asking about the osx dock thing and someone linked me to this AWN program... if I use it, will it replace compiz and take all my nice effects away? [18:04] Bidget, [18:04] grims: even if you leave the memtest running for 20+ minutes? [18:04] Speedy: do you get your news from the windows vista team? [18:04] I have enabled wlan restricted drivers (bcm4312) [18:04] use cairo-dock instead [18:04] Boo. OK. I got it.. /media/hdb1 rr [18:04] oh? [18:04] How can I have vnc working before login? normal vnc remote desktop from preferences works great... but if I reboot, I lose access until I login manually. [18:04] Slart, yes -- I left it on for 5 hours haha [18:04] Slart, did not know that it kept retesting [18:04] its not that i consider it to be that of a problem, its only that it would be nice to get some use of the full power of my cpu instead of just using it as if it was a 32 bit cpu ;-) [18:04] Bidget, look at the cairo-dock if you want osx style docking, personally i got annoyed with it after an hour [18:04] dont get why mac fags like the dock [18:05] Andycasss: have you read the bcm43xx wiki help? [18:05] grims: hang on.. I'll be right back [18:05] Slart, okay. [18:05] Speedy: come on man... [18:05] thoreauputic: yes [18:05] Speedy: watch the insults, pal [18:05] well Im just getting a dock because my gf owns a mac and I think she'd be able to use my computer easier if there was one... [18:05] Speedy: watch your words.. [18:05] thoreauputic, i didnt insult anyone [18:05] you just said "mac fag" [18:05] point? [18:05] xjkx: http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/804rc#head-1265c643d5763372826b64cae74ee8fe10634f1f [18:05] Speedy: I don;t think "fags" is acceptable [18:05] what exactly is that implying if it's not an insult? [18:05] kvaser, install the 64bit version then... it supports amd64 and EMT64 [18:06] ah right, the word fag isnt allowed??? is that a little harsh especially when your making your own assumptions about what it means? [18:06] thanks for the help [18:06] =\ [18:06] efight! [18:06] speedy either assumption finds a party to be insulted if you insist [18:06] Speedy: I won't argue - if you argue about it you will be quietly removed [18:06] hey [18:06] !etiquette > Speedy (Please see the private messsage from ubotu) [18:06] is the new Ubuntu released? [18:06] so speedy what exactly were you meaning when you said fag then? [18:06] Bidget: Drop it. [18:06] Speedy: it's not a hard concept seriously... [18:07] Bidget: people who smoke while using macs... [18:07] Hello. When booting the RC of 8.04 it hangs while loading the Hardware Abstraction Layer hald. It is the same thing I had with Gutsy. Do I have some shitty hardware in my machine or..? [18:07] well isn't that clever... [18:07] apple branded cigs... [18:07] *shrug* [18:07] Phoop: Watch the language, Hardy support in #ubuntu+1 [18:07] Aaaah [18:07] robf: drop it please [18:07] macfag > someone that likes and uses mac because they see it as a fashion statement rather than a tool [18:07] anyone here know of any good VOIP brokers? [18:07] grims: memtest just keeps running.. over and over and over again.. [18:07] Thanks, only read the first pieace of the topic Pici :) [18:08] I think you're confusing the term mac fag with mac user [18:08] thoreauputic: >:| [18:08] but whatever [18:08] I give up [18:08] Slart, yes -- i figured it out haha [18:08] Ok [18:08] grims: is this some kind of "weird computer" in some way? laptop? nuclear computer from old soviet? [18:08] DJones, thanks [18:08] Slart, nuclear from USSR [18:08] !tell Speedy about etiquette [18:08] I got it to where now i want to use a different folder for the local server say my /home/alabamahit/Projects folder...who do i go about making apache user that folder? [18:08] anyway to my original question, will AWN replace compiz? It says that it is a window manager === LittleKiller is now known as AlabamaHit [18:09] or should I just try out this cairo dock [18:09] in console, how can I know which version of kubuntu I am running ? [18:09] grims: perhaps the ubuntu kernel is not compiled with SYSRQ support [18:09] Slart, nah its a normal computer -- AMD 2800+, 512mb ddr1, onboard everything === jonp__ is now known as jonph [18:09] Boohbah, how would I change that? [18:09] i don't know where to get the .config of the ubuntu kernel though, to find out...

[18:10] someone kb him [18:10] grims: hmm.. odd.. it's hard to troubleshoot when there's no error messages [18:10] yeah I was gonna suggest that [18:10] Slart -- indeed. haha [18:10] Slart, it happens on the live cd too though does that make a difference? [18:10] Sorry, I don't know anything about compile kernel - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [18:10] grims: 90% of these, "it just crashes after a while", has something to do with overheating. [18:10] hello mr. shuttleworth, i got a question, to put ubuntu to some wash machines? [18:10] Slart, grims: i guess sysrq happens at such a low level in the kernel that it isn't able to log it... after it's already oopsed [18:11] sudo apt-get moo [18:11] grims: but did you get any info about why the kernel failed from dmesg?

[18:13] Boohbah, do you suggest lm_sensors or conky [18:14] grims, after install do: sensors-detect and then YES to ALL [18:14] tell torwalds to put the lm-sensors into the kernel [18:14] bidget, sudo apt-get install avant-window-navigator [18:14] grims: i think conky uses lm_sensors for its backend... it depends if you want a gui or not [18:14] oh ok hahaha I was looking for the acronym [18:14] duhhh [18:14] alteregoa: why? [18:15] grims: start with lm_sensors.. conky is just pretty colors and bling bling =) [18:15] Bidget: You need to enable your Backports repository first, then use the sudo apt-get install command [18:15] ok quick question, lets say I use the command line to install something with sudo apt-get install, does it automatically install the dependencies like if I use the gui? [18:15] backports.... k [18:15] Bidget: yes [18:15] grims, follow this: http://www.techthrob.com/tech/linuxsensors.php [18:15] ok cool [18:15] Bidget, it's going to determine dependencies and ask you to approve installing them [18:15] RoAkSoAx, Slart, Boohbah: thank you!

I've got it extracted but when I changed into the folder and tried "make" it said no make file found [18:39] goamind, the only thing they got wrong there was the vid card isnt ati its nvidia in the mbp but the normal nvidia linux driver should work for it [18:39] Hello. I am migrating a IPSEC connection from an old OpenBSD box to Ubuntu. OpenBSD uses isakmpd for IPSEC while, it seems to me, on Linux the KAME implementation is more popular. But there is isakmpd on Linux. So I was wondering if any of you guys might have a suggestion why I should use one or the other? For now I suppose that by using isampd on Linux would allow me to transfer everything verbatim from the OpenBSD box [18:39] eeeandrew: ./configure maybe? [18:39] Pici: did i? geez spelling is guetting worse by the minute, but yeah I meant AWN isnt there anything i can use that acts similar to AWN? [18:40] eeeandrew: ./configure; make; sudo make install [18:40] elventear: that's a pretty good reason [18:40] elventear i would assume yes [18:40] has anyone configured AWN before?

Does anyone know what the direct download link to 8.04 will be once it's released @6hrs from now? The reason I'm asking is so I can instruct my DL manager to download at a certain time, so when I step in the office tomorrow I'll have the .iso on my desktop. Thanks. [18:42] eeeandrew: no you need to install the tcl-dev package that is in the repo most likely [18:42] Pici: np at least I gt something to try out [18:42] sploby: what release of ubuntu are you using? [18:42] Rajec: whatever :) [18:42] boohbah: Gutsy 7.10 [18:42] eeeandrew http://www.ipsec-howto.org/x496.html [18:42] kitche: so do sudo apt-get install tcl-dev? [18:43] OK thanks guys.

[18:59] Rajec: the server edition lacks X and the graphical environments [19:00] Rajec, You could always install the server edition and add a desktop to it [19:00] Rajec: gui tools won't apply to the server environment.. instead of update-manager, you would use apt-get and so on [19:00] Rajec: and you can install a server from a desktop CD, and vice versa [19:00] Boohbah, so what do you think I should do (besides googling Kernel oops) ;] [19:00] hi, ive installed my ati driver but xvinfo reports that xv isnt working (no adaptors present it says) what can I do?

[19:53] doxid: Yeah it is super simple, so should be good [19:53] Jack_Sparrow, what did automatix do? [19:53] balgarath, Ask them [19:53] nothing you want [19:53] Jack_Sparrow, will do [19:53] balgarath, automatix broke thousands of systems [19:54] yep I learned the hard way [19:54] aah gparted :D thats a lovely tool! it's avalible for a boot-cd with only gparted and X too i'f i'm not mistaken [19:55] !gparted [19:55] GParted is a !GUI partitioning program.

[20:12] It seems to at up the most when I move windows around [20:12] !eyecandy [20:12] Find your themes at: http://www.gnome-look.org - http://art.gnome.org - http://www.kde-look.org - http://kubuntu-art.org - http://themes.freshmeat.net/browse/58/ - http://www.guistyles.com - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Artwork/ - Also see !changethemes and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuEyeCandy [20:12] Kcaj[UBuntu]: just stop using compiz - System > Prefs > Appearance > Effects > None [20:12] lixomancem, you need some filtering [20:12] !compiz | Kcaj[UBuntu] [20:12] Kcaj[UBuntu]: Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - help in #compiz-fusion [20:12] !lts [20:12] nevermind [20:12] Kcaj[UBuntu]: compiz is a window manager. it does all the pretty desktop effects [20:12] having my window warble around is definitely worth the 4% cpu usag eoccasionally [20:12] what does "Supported" mean? I thought support came from the community [20:12] Kcaj[UBuntu]: :) [20:12] !eol > Sake [20:13] Sake: 1) You can buy support from Canonical and other vendors, 2) security updates [20:13] Sake: Ubuntu is completely community supported, but the community also are the ones who upload the security updates and whatnot. [20:13] lixomancem, as in, you've set up the queue discipline... but you haven't done any filters to send traffic to the relevant traffic class. anyway, considered using the "shaper" package? [20:13] pvh_sa: but I wanted the limit to be applied globally. Shouldn`t the default rule do that for me? [20:13] Sake: security updates in ubuntu are always quick. But the LTS versions receive them for 3 years (on desktop) so if running dapper you still get your Firefox 1.5 fixed [20:13] hello the chan [20:13] lixomancem, not as far as i know [20:13] lixomancem, you'd have to make a very broad filter for that [20:14] hrmm, ok. So why wait the week before installing HH? [20:14] pvh_sa: that is strange. then why does a default discipline even exist? [20:14] Sake: because if you don't know how to deal with pre-release software, you don't want to :) It's only a day anyway, not a week. [20:15] doxid: U still in here? gparted has a livecd, you can use that to do it. [20:15] yea, so basically I want to set up a machine with nothing but vmware server running on it. I have to decide whether to run the latest ubuntu or an older LTS like 6.04 [20:16] hi [20:16] from what I'm hearing here, I should go for the latest [20:16] DanikarPN, i don't have any more CD's to burn :P [20:16] * izinucs is away: I'm having...... a break [20:16] lixomancem, look at the example at http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.qdisc.classful.html#AEN883 [20:16] doxid: oh noes, isnt that like a sin or something. lol [20:16] DanikarPN, so i'm planning on running the live-cd (install CD) and install LVM2 into the ram :P [20:16] Whenever I try to install something it shows the URL of the repo and says connection refused [20:16] haha [20:16] help plz [20:16] will there be a much difference between currect RC4 and final 8.04 ? want to download now to avoid rush [20:16] !away > izinucs (you're having... a private message from ubotu) [20:17] THEMES!!! [20:17] pvh_sa: yea I have been looking thru examples for a while... I tried creating a filter for port 80, and it still does not affect http file downloads [20:17] doxid: I bet you could get it running from a USB drive if you had one. [20:17] off to try gparted install-cd style :P [20:17] haha ^^ i got pleny DanikarPN :P [20:17] debasys: just dl tomarrow, everything will be working tomarrow ;P [20:17] well brb :) [20:17] guys. i know how to read mbr with dd command. But can i read the some other sector. Just one sector in the middle of HD? ty [20:17] i am tryin g to install the package libssl0.9.6 but it says package couldnt found [20:17] debasys, not really, just make sure you get all the updates when you have finished installing [20:17] All Hardy testing questions in #ubuntu+1. Release anticipation in #ubuntu-release-party [20:17] lixomancem, yeah, its dark magic. try the "shaper" package? its a much more friendly frontend to this stuff [20:17] tomd123, he he right :) [20:17] more like release depression... [20:17] So any help ? [20:18] just out of curiosity, why does firefox make all the ! (exclamation points) bold? [20:18] I'm new to ubuntu and wondered where to find the settings for 'single-click' as opposed to 'double-click' file opening etc? [20:18] is it possible to move AWN to the top of the screen? [20:18] pvh_sa: yeah, I have tried some frontends, one of them I gave a full go was tcng, but the rules are still being ignored for some reason [20:18] tomd123, cant stop the excitment ;) [20:18] hey guys , how do I adjust my gamma / [20:18] ? [20:18] mattperry: open up nautlis, it's in the preferences [20:18] pvh_sa: thank you anyway for your help, i'll just keep on trying for a couple of days before giving up :) [20:18] mattperry, should be in nautilus's preferences [20:18] Nautilus appears to be locked at a particular window size, not maximized. [20:18] mattperry: 1) Open Nautilus (Places -> Home Folder) [20:18] 2) Edit -> Preferences [20:18] 3) Select Tab Behavior [20:18] debasys: the excitement can be seen in ubuntu+1, so much people asking others to fix their problems lol [20:19] thanks everyone [20:19] !party [20:19] Please remember that #ubuntu, #kubuntu, #xubuntu, and #edubuntu are support channels.

[20:39] !lag === aaron is now known as AaronMT [20:39] aw AaronMT [20:39] trekkme: The answer is always that it will release when the release manager says so, which is generally down to how exact order of events works out on the day and is hard for anyone (including the release manager) to put an exact time on in advance. [20:39] arrrgh [20:39] Sorry, I don't know anything about where are you? - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [20:39] smb.conf is owned by root [20:39] Hi, is there no DVD navigation available in viewing dvd's in Totem?

[20:46] Yes [20:46] whileimhere: depends a lot on the file contents [20:46] rom files [20:46] they are zipped once already [20:46] Don't add 7z on top of zip [20:46] I try to find VMware-player in the Ubuntu Hardy repo's, but I can't find it.

I have to keep switching between them to change brightness [20:47] But, likely, 7z will beat zip provided you use high settings for 7z compression. [20:47] patifa wont make much diff huh? [20:47] well attempting to 'double compress' eliminates the benefits of having the compressor finding repiticious stuff [20:48] hey [20:48] one question [20:48] you also have to see how fast it compress and decompress [20:48] I see I didnt know that [20:48] By any chance does anyone have experience with SMAC ported by loki? [20:48] jeroen im using vmware-server is better [20:48] well both are of similar speed, though 7z is a little slower, I think. [20:48] erm, decompression is about the same, compression is slower for 7z [20:48] bayar: I can't find that either [20:48] I have problems to follow the instructions in this site to get the free pop [20:48] http://www.ubuntugeek.com/free-pop3-and-smtp-access-to-yahoo-mail-using-ypops-in-ubuntu.html [20:48] I just want to run a ISO [20:49] in the source list, when it asks me to paste that line, save and close... it appears somethign saying I dont have permissions to that [20:49] so, I cant save and go on with the process [20:50] jeroen [20:50] anyone can help please?

[20:50] I try to find why [20:51] Or have installation to those programs into wine [20:51] And still there's something that thinks it knows how I should have my interfaces configured better than I do [20:51] jeroen because there is a new virtual machine (a gnu one) now [20:52] bayar: you mean virtual box? [20:52] Sorry, I don't know anything about sudo anza - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [20:52] no Aaron, it says the same: You do not have the permissions necessary to save the file. Please check that you typed the location correctly and try again. [20:52] anza: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. [20:52] no jeroen an other one i forget the name [20:52] jeroen-: you can try qemu if you have is in your repo. It is a command line virtualizer which can do the trick just pretty [20:52] Does anyone know what exact time Ubuntu 8.04 will be released? [20:53] yeah what time anyone know?

[20:55] evandro: #ubuntu-br [20:55] lol [20:55] tks [20:55] and why build it in the kernel and remove the player of the repos === arooni_ is now known as arooni-mobile [20:55] jeroen-, I'm not an expert, but for sure it deserves a try :) [20:55] evandro, damn brazilians :) [20:56] amenado, http://ktron.pastecode.com/?show=m287e0c16 [20:56] no, it won't work :( [20:56] see, this is it [20:57] amenado, Maybe its Ubuntu networking itself [20:57] first it says I must do: $sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list [20:57] then, it opens a sources list [20:57] and in that list [20:57] amenado, regardless, all I want is to have control over my own network configuration and not have applications changing it on me/reverting it on me every couple minutes [20:57] I must write: deb http://tskariah.000webhost.com/ubuntu ubuntu main [20:57] save [20:57] Can anybody here help me with setting my screen resolution in Hardy Heron manually [20:57] and close [20:57] Anza, sudo, not $sudo [20:58] but the manual says $sudo [20:58] ahhh wait [20:58] !fixres | rogly [20:58] rogly: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto [20:58] it probably says '$ sudo' -- $ indicates the command prompt Anza [20:58] thank you [20:58] why & when should I use "ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE" [20:59] I saw before about smartpm.. it's a good idea to use it on Ubuntu as package manager? I wonder if I can use something that will make updates on some packages from some repo and not based by latest version [20:59] dxdemetriou, ubuntu does not support smartpm [20:59] So I installed a new login, which had the nifty feature of displaying all the different users (a la Windows), rather than prompting for user name. I was surprised to find that there was another user, one which I had not created. What is "Sabayon User" and can I safely delete that user? [20:59] hehe [21:00] damn it was stupid [21:00] * Anza blushes [21:00] thank you guys [21:00] AdrianStrays, that user is created by sabayon, a config editing/deployment tool. Look in system -> administration === Owner is now known as aO|DB-DX [21:00] you should not remove this user, you can simply exclude him in the loginscreen config [21:00] what tool can i use to reconfigure X after i screwed up the config file? [21:00] plsssss === luke__ is now known as Coggz [21:01] !xfix [21:01] Sorry, I don't know anything about xfix - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [21:01] meh [21:01] Seveas, what is it for? Can I delete it? [21:01] Evening everyone. [21:01] dts, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh [21:01] How do i see how much RAM i'm using in console? [21:01] AdrianStrays, you can delete it -- apt-get remove sabayon [21:01] fix res [21:02] stvn_, with the command called 'free' [21:02] Seveas: thanxs [21:02] stvn_, or with top/htop [21:02] ty Seveas [21:02] hi all. can anyone tell me the difference between linux-image-2.6.24-16-386_2.6.24-16.30_i386.deb and linux-image-2.6.24-16-generic_2.6.24-16.30_i386.deb ? [21:02] when I typed that into console to fix my resolution, i jsut got a black screen =[ [21:02] Seveas, for what reason is it installed? I don't recall ever putting it in. [21:03] AdrianStrays, it's installed by default nowadays [21:03] Seveas, I said about smartpm just to say what I'm trying to do. can I do it with apt? [21:03] Please, can someone recommend me music player for Ubuntu. [21:03] dxdemetriou, yes, with apt pinning [21:03] why & when should I use "ENABLE_LAPTOP_MODE" [21:03] artti, bmpx [21:03] jeroen are u there? [21:03] Amarok crashed, Rythmbox don't want play mp3's. Currenlty i use XMMS. [21:03] artti: bmpx, quod libet, amarok... [21:04] So is this upcoming Ubuntu going to be released with GOBuntu upgrade at the same time? [21:04] artti, what about banshee? [21:05] Seveas, I saw about it, but what I understood was about pinning and unpinning some versions, I didn't see anything about following only one repo.. anyway, thanks for help :) [21:05] or exaile [21:05] trying to change permissions on a folder while logged as root. what is the correct syntax for the command? [21:05] Whats the script/software that shows live traffic and decrypts and shows pictures and such? [21:05] XMMS is good but negative side is that tag editor isn't good. [21:05] I absolutely love banshee. It's not as heavy as amarok, but has the same features that I want. [21:05] littlepinkdot, a web browser? [21:06] !encryption [21:06] Sorry, I don't know anything about encryption - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [21:06] or listen? [21:06] the listen player is just amarok for gnome.... pretty much [21:06] When I download a MP3 from Amazon.com and it says it is DRM free do they do anything to the MP3 to ID it to me? [21:06] Hey, I have this: http://portalxl40.cvs.sourceforge.net/portalxl40/portal_xl40/ <<<--- howto download the files from the CVS folder? [21:06] lol Seveas, no there was a script I read about a while ago that can be used to sniff traffic on wireless/wired network and show any pictures it finds. [21:06] So, what in *ubuntu Re enables interfaces withotu asking you? [21:06] does ubuntu need to be activated? [21:06] I have avahi disabled [21:07] artti - have you looked at easytag for editing tags? [21:07] nm-applet is not running [21:07] whileimhere, this is ubuntu support, offtopic talk elsewhere please [21:07] poopcheese3044, no. Ubuntu is software libre [21:07] does the networking service itself in ?ubuntu re enable interfaces as it sees fit? [21:07] Haven't time yet to look things. Yesterday i installed Ubuntu. [21:07] Okay. are all Ubuntu distros updated at the same time or will Gobuntu be left behind for awhile? [21:08] Ktron-> how is your interface configured? as you claimed configured by avahi? [21:08] Ktron, it will activate the wired interface if you plug it in [21:08] I'm looking for a recommendation for a really good bittorrent client for Ubuntu--anybody have a favorite? :) [21:08] hey guys ;) [21:08] Vista got blue screen after i had it 4 days. [21:08] whileimhere, all at the same time [21:08] CJS3141: deluge [21:08] quick question (help a newbie :)) I want to open a torrent with deluge in gnome, but where is deluge in the directory structure? where can I find it with 'open with?' [21:08] palbuddy, /usr/bin/deluge I think [21:08] amenado, Seveas, I have a wireless connection that is reenabling itself, there are before and after ifconfig pastes here http://ktron.pastecode.com/?show=m287e0c16 [21:08] Any ideas why an HP Pavilion with a realtec network card will not detect the the card in ubuntu 8.04? [21:09] I want to use Gobuntu but I still want to play my MP3s will Gobuntu give me a hard time with this? [21:09] Is there any way to burn a video to a DVD-VR formatted disc? [21:09] Isn't deluge supposed to be a mimesink? [21:09] AmbuTech, yes === Marfi is now known as CarmenSandiego [21:09] AmbuTech: Windows Wireless drivers will not work in ubuntu (for the most part) [21:09] AmbuTech, If've seen that [21:09] Some_Person: depends on wether that video is correctly encoded and your dvd burner [21:09] brrt: Sounds promising--is the 0.5.8.3.1 version in Synaptic up-to-date enough? Or should I get it off the web somewhere? [21:10] AmbuTech, If you add "acpi=no" in the kernel options like (at grub menu.lst), the card works. [21:10] whileimhere, then it would no longer be gobuntu :) [21:10] Hi [21:10] Ktron eth1:avahi is irrelevant, you cant use it anyways...try and see [21:10] brrt: my burner supports it, and i can easily reencode [21:10] AmbuTech, s/like r/line [21:10] Hi, anyone here who can help me with a Bluetooth Audio problem? [21:10] Cheers [21:10] !anyone | roman [21:10] roman: 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? [21:10] LOL That is just one small part I thought Gobuntu was an overall thing [21:10] trying now [21:10] how does one change the mouse themes? [21:10] okay ;) [21:11] then burn it :-) I use brasero for burning [21:11] hello [21:11] thank you very very much seveas! [21:11] I'm trying to block some domains from my computer [21:11] brrt: how would i add a new title to my disc/ [21:11] I appreciate all the help you guys give! [21:11] What's the best way to go about it? [21:11] that I don't know [21:11] howto download a CVS when you have the path? [21:11] okay well take care, and have a great day! [21:11] amenado, so (not my choice but) my DNS server has a 169.254.0.x address, so I think when avahi comes up it takes over the route and then my DNS doesn't work anymore [21:11] balzac several ways, iptables rules or host.deny [21:11] does anybody know where to get themes for Hardy Heron? [21:11] how i can do hfs+ under ubuntu 7.10 instalation? [21:12] How do I check file permissions? [21:12] Ktron, you should *not* use 169.254 anywhere [21:12] Remotely, via SSH? [21:12] amenado, so my DNS stops working and I have to disable the interface again to get DNS back [21:12] how do i add a user in command line [21:12] Ktron, 169.254 is the link-local subnet, it should not be used in configurations [21:12] Seveas, I have no choice; it was my company's decision [21:12] amendo, does the host.deny file already exist? [21:12] Ktron, then your network admins need a good kick in the nuts, really [21:12] if not, where do I put it? [21:12] Coggz - look at the adduser command :) man adduser [21:12] Coggz; man adduser will give you a tuturial [21:12] amenado [21:13] So, my Bluetooth Headset is connected. Unfortunaly, it does not show up anywhere in the system (not in volume control etc.), but if I run "arecord -D bluetooth -f S16_LE | aplay -D bluetooth -f S16_LE", I can hear myself in the headset. So, how do I get the system to use my headset, and not my "normal" soundcard? [21:13] cool [21:13] thanx [21:13] Seveas, It was chosen to be used as a set of non-public IPs that couldn't collide with public addresses OR local subnets [21:13] anybody on where to get Hardy heron themes? [21:13] Seveas, for our vlan [21:13] balzac-> look for it in /etc [21:13] i'm looking to reverse all the colors on the screen and just read http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/1095/ aptitude says compiz is installed, but how do i use it or super+m? [21:13] Ktron, it clashes with what it's meant for, which you are now seeing [21:13] thanks amenado [21:13] Seveas, I agree though, its horrible, and yes, it causes problems like this [21:13] Ktron, disable avahi to work around it [21:13] I sense a productive week ahead, after I block out slashdot, digg, etc... [21:14] and pray you never have mac users [21:14] Seveas, I'm trying to disable avahi, but I can't [21:14] can someone provide me a working link that allows me to download cairo-dock it seems google has all these expired links and posts "would prefer .deb if possible"? [21:14] WHY does the stupid Gnome Recovery mode work and not the regular mode [21:14] Seveas, I've /etc/init.d/avahi-daemon stop, and I've even update-rc.d -f avahi-daemon remove [21:14] Ktron disable the interface that you dont use.. [21:14] Ktron dont leave it up [21:14] Ktron, it's avahi-autoipd you want gone [21:14] Hey lads, how come i get this error whein trying to mount a NTFS device: http://213.114.10.15/error.png (i managed to mount it just a min ago but after installing LVM2 it dosn't work) [21:15] amenado, Seveas and I _do_ disable the interface I don't use with ifconfig eth1 down _but_ something is re enabling it [21:15] Ktron not per what you pasted, it is still up [21:15] Ktron, avahi itself did that, nothing to do with network-manager :) [21:15] doxid, are you sure that its ntfs? [21:15] Ktron disable the interface that you dont use.. [21:15] doxid: show me fdisk -l /dev/sdb in a pastebin please. [21:15] amenado, the stop section is what I change it to with an ifconfig eth1 down, BUT then something enables them into the second ifconfig paste [21:16] Ktron, kill avahi-autoipd [21:16] Ktron what stop section? what command you issued? [21:16] ikonia, http://pastebin.com/d29217848 [21:16] doxid, i would also check and make sure its not sdb1, or hdb1 [21:16] doxid: have you added any pv's from sdb into a volume group ? [21:16] ikonia, since i just ripped it out of a windows machine i'm pretty sure it's NTFS :P [21:16] why in gparted on ubunty(on installing) hfs+ partition type is grey(cant select)? [21:17] ikonia, nope. only sda [21:17] hmm [21:17] Does anyone know why Nautilus' windows are locked in size? [21:17] amenado, I configure my system so it looks like the top part of http://ktron.pastecode.com/?show=m287e0c16, and then something (avahi-autoipd most likely) changes it back to the bottom section without me doing anything [21:17] oh shoot [21:17] doxid: try mounting it read only with the ntfs driver, rather than ntfs-3g [21:17] damdalf: is the partition mounted? if so unmount it and try again [21:17] Seveas, I killed them... but there wasn't any running, so what starts avahi-autoipd? [21:17] ikonia, i might have accedently added sdb, but i removed it (i hope) [21:17] doxid: if you did that, it's game over [21:17] Seveas, er, hold on, let me clarify [21:17] Ktron, /etc/dhcp3/dhclient-exit-hooks.d/zzz_avahi-autoipd [21:17] ohh [21:17] ty [21:17] doxid: that would explain the situation [21:17] ikonia, :S [21:17] any ideas why Gnome Recovery mode works and not the regular mode just goes blank white screen? [21:18] ikex, no f-ing way : / seriously? :S [21:18] Seveas, I killed them previously, but they were restarted (and when you told me to kill them again, there were two processes up)... Okay [21:18] ikonia, fuck if thats the case i'm gona go cry in a crorner for the rest of my lifetime ._. that was my love-disk >_< [21:18] doxid: sorry, yes, if you pvcreate it, it writes the private region, and that destorys your ntfs [21:18] doxid: careful on the language please, it's not needed [21:18] the partition is unnalocated [21:18] ops sry : / [21:18] doxid: no problem, [21:19] Seveas, I made it no longer executable, hopefully that stops this [21:19] oh bugger : / thers like 11 years of work on that disk :'( i'm such a carrot :P [21:19] Is there an alternative program to Xorg? [21:19] doxid: sorry, pvcreate will do that to it [21:19] Ktron, or edit it (it's a script) and remove the call to autoipd [21:19] Seveas, thanks [21:19] Joeseph, very alternative [21:19] ikonia, can LVM2 read ntfs properly? [21:19] Guillem: as in not very main-stream? or what? [21:19] doxid: lvm is not a file system thing [21:19] nvm : / pvc will create a clean slate : / [21:19] doxid: it's a disk volume managment tool [21:20] ikonia, yepp my bad. my head is spinning for possible solutions :P [21:20] Joeseph, there are several alternatives not suitable for "normal users" [21:20] doxid: don't worry, it's complex with all the layers [21:20] doxid: easy to get lost [21:20] Joeseph, Xorg has become pretty smart nevertheless. [21:20] doxid: your not the first and you won't be the last [21:20] Guillem: ah... I've just had trouble with Xorg: it seems to eat up my cpu at random times [21:20] ikonia, i'm probobly the first guy who skipped 20% of the manual as usual and ended up with 11 years of lost data :P [21:20] Joeseph, try the vesa driver: no acceleration and so on [21:21] does anyone know how to setup a multimonitor setup with 2 different GPU's? (1 nvidia, 1 ATI) [21:21] Joeseph, but you can check where your trouble is coming from [21:21] is there a convert x to dvd for ubuntu? [21:21] Guilllem: how do I do that- and I'll look up the vesa driver thing [21:21] is ubuntu wiki down or what? [21:21] doxid: if you fancy a challange you could try dd'ing the data off, creating a new file system and trying to re-create it (long shot) [21:22] Joeseph, which card do you have? [21:22] ikonia, or i'll just start programming all over again from a 1 year old backup : / think that will be alot faster :P [21:23] doxid: your the boss, just trying to give you options [21:23] ikonia, hopefully i got some stuff on my SVN server [21:23] ikonia, thank you alot for the help :) actually ment alot [21:23] doxid: not a problem [21:23] Hi [21:23] Guillem: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82815 Chipset Graphics Controller (CGC) (rev 04) [21:24] plugins and downloads, How? [21:24] Joeseph, then, backup your /etc/xorg.conf, edit the file and locate where it says " Driver "intel" " replacing with " Driver "vesa" ". You'll have to restart X. [21:25] Guillem: like, right now, my computer is just dandy great. Later, seemingly randomly, Xorg will just blow up when I do anything, so the above is what you suggest for that? [21:26] Joeseph, vesa driver is very limited. Do not expect any dandyness [21:26] Joeseph, it is like fail-safe mode [21:26] Joeseph, are you sure Xorg is the one which is eating the CPU?? [21:27] Guillem: yes, I've looked in top [21:27] how many hours until release? [21:27] <_Rambaldi_> can i change what some keys on my keyboard does? ie make my home buttom be backspace as well. i have a small backspace next to home and i keep hitting that instead [21:27] !isitout | RAW-mEAT|TC [21:27] RAW-mEAT|TC: The answer is always that it will release when the release manager says so, which is generally down to how exact order of events works out on the day and is hard for anyone (including the release manager) to put an exact time on in advance. [21:27] Joeseph, are you using desktop-effects? (3D) [21:27] Guillem: Why am I installing this vesa driver? [21:28] Joeseph, it is a suggestion only. In order to see where your trouble is coming from... [21:28] BB [21:28] Are the apt servers going to be hammered like when gutsy just came out? [21:28] My Bluetooth Headset is connected. Unfortunaly, it does not show up anywhere in the system (not in volume control etc.), but if I run "arecord -D bluetooth -f S16_LE | aplay -D bluetooth -f S16_LE", I can hear myself in the headset. So, how do I get the system to use my headset, and not my "normal" soundcard? [21:28] so im not sure if my Nvidia glx graphics card can't handle Gnomes effects or if its a but, but some times my screen will just mess up [21:28] So, I've adjusted my xorg correctly to the best of my knowlege, but when I restart gdm, it still is using the wrong resolution, and my desired resolution is not in the options in the 'screen resolution' applet. Why? [21:28] hello [21:28] and i dont know what to do [21:29] Guillem: I am not using any 3d desktop effects. On KDE, I have about half the effects on, but effects do not cause the Xorg to shoot up. For example, on gnome, I have no effects, and it still randomly shoots to close to 100% of my cpu. [21:29] report it as a bug? [21:29] I've modified my etc/hosts.deny file to block the ip address of a specific website [21:29] I can still load this site in my browser [21:29] what does it mean for a bug to be triaged? [21:29] Joeseph, use top in a terminal to find out what's doing that [21:29] do I need to reboot my networking to make it take effect? [21:29] Guillem: so once I install this vesa driver, you'll help me figure out what is causing Xorg to eat my cpu? [21:29] balzac, hosts.deny is for *incoming* connections [21:29] :names [21:29] crap [21:29] Seveas: I already know its Xorg [21:30] I want to block my outbound access [21:30] balzac: hosts.deny is used by services like web servers to know who not to allow to access your system. [21:30] balzac-> hosts.deny is for incoming [21:30] balzac, sudo iptables -A OUTPUT -d ip_address_here -j REJECT [21:30] ok, how can I block my own access to certain domains? [21:30] balzac: man iptables [21:30] balzac-> for outgoing you have to use iptables or in a proxy you blocked it there [21:30] thanks seveas [21:30] ok, iptables it is... [21:31] Is Ubuntu nearly ready? Both 32 and 64 bit versions? [21:31] balzac, or install firestarter if you don't want to use the commandline :) [21:31] When Hardy is officially available, will the apt repos get overwhelmed? [21:31] !isitout | F3d0rA [21:31] F3d0rA: The answer is always that it will release when the release manager says so, which is generally down to how exact order of events works out on the day and is hard for anyone (including the release manager) to put an exact time on in advance. [21:31] seveas, I'll try it [21:31] Joeseph, it is getting late here :( . You were asking for a radical solution.... I just have pointed one possible choice. I understand you don't want to mess the xorg.conf file specially if you have never done so.... [21:31] Was wonderin I installed phpmyadmin. I have not changed my DocumentRoot and I can not get acess to the phpadmin I think I ahve to change the root but...my questin is how can i add folders that apache views without changing the DocumentRoot...cause i want it to work on the localhost, phpadmin, and my Projects folder. [21:31] hm [21:31] Joeseph, you may try a liveCD to see if that happens as well.... [21:31] AlabamaHit: did you restart apache after installing it? [21:32] BBL [21:32] oh while I'm here, any idea why a bcm4311 isn't working on an acer aspire 5315 on gutsy? i press the wifi button and the light doesnt come on and nm-applet never lists any networks. [21:32] I have a page that when I load it in FF3b5 it immediately logs me out of gnome, doesn't happen for windows users on FF3b5. can anyone point me in the right direction of who to report this to [21:32] AlabamaHit just create sub-folders int he document root [21:32] I've tried squid and ebox, and found them too difficult to set up. [21:32] hi all! i've just wanted to start compiz but it sad: "composite extension not present" what shall i do? [21:32] Starnestommy: yes [21:32] please check this as i have finally found the fiel for cairo-dock apparently the project still exist under a discreet domain :/ - http://pastebin.ca/995002, any suggestions to that warning are welcomed as long as it is helpful? [21:32] does anybody know how to install open office on a ppc pc with ubuntu on it? [21:32] jturk: what's the page? [21:32] simonft2: the same way you do with any package [21:32] http://qwiki.caltech.edu/wiki/Complexity_Zoo [21:32] how? [21:32] simonft2: you open the package manager, select it and click intstall [21:33] balzac kind of dumb trick, you can put an entry in the /etc/hosts for the destination and point it to a nonexisting ip address [21:33] ikonia: i was trying to avoid that becuase i want to be able to move and save files without root privilage [21:33] simonft2: have you read ANY of the documents today ? [21:33] AlabamaHit: do you have php setup [21:33] lol [21:33] no it wont work [21:33] Guillem: alright, I guess I won't mess with anything now- [21:33] AlabamaHit: you don't need root privilages, use sudo [21:33] ill show you the erro [21:33] r [21:33] simonft2: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [21:33] soulrider_: what won't work ? [21:33] simonft2: what won't work ? [21:33] Guys is ubuntu server good os for server in a mid sized network ??

Unfortunaly, it does not show up anywhere in the system (not in volume control etc.), but if I run "arecord -D bluetooth -f S16_LE | aplay -D bluetooth -f S16_LE", I can hear myself in the headset. So, how do I get the system to use my headset, and not my "normal" soundcard? [21:37] rsids1: thats going to be quite a drag [21:37] ikonia: heh [21:37] rsids1: you'll have to use xienerma [21:37] ikonia: I exported "-g -Wall" to CFLAGS and LDFLAGS, but if i run gcc, it doesn't generate warnings normally triggered by -Wall [21:38] is 8.04 package supposed to work on 7.10 ???

[21:39] er, as far as i know not [21:39] ikonia, if it's not to bothersome to answer :) are you a official Ubuntu support employee? : ) [21:39] mad_max02, packages depend on libraries versions (>=something); 7.10 won't have some of them at a proper version [21:39] basso: I believe it's the bottom right corner of the contacts window [21:39] ikonia: so i export to CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS?

It's 23.47 [22:47] the file would be .inf? [22:48] hehe yeah it only takes the tar.gz if you press the install thingie, otherwise just extract it to ~/.themes/ [22:48] Ravenn, the cab files are compressed. Ark and it's dependencies should be able to extract them. [22:48] Kron, this is a support channel. Cut the offtopic talk please [22:48] be1, do you have the hardware to run it?

[22:54] Seveas thank you so much. it seems to be working now [22:54] sorry for all the touble [22:54] MrBill: habit should be sudo always in Ubuntu [22:54] MrBill, always use -i.

Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? [22:55] how do I run dpkg --configure -a? [22:55] Morph3us, yeah. I speak english and don't have it installed :) [22:55] ive found help for it but it didn't seem to work for the 64bit architecture [22:56] Is there much difference between debian testing and ubuntu?

[22:57] Seveas, yes [22:57] T-Hawk, did you mount it read-write? [22:57] thank you very much [22:57] Seveas, i didn't do either, rw should be default according to man nfs [22:58] T-Hawk, I thought so too, check the output of mount to be sure [22:58] rw by default doesn't sound "linuxy" [22:58] cybercod: IM [22:58] CyberCod, why not? [22:58] I'm currently trying to pick a final year project for the final year of my comp sci degree. Does anyone have any suggestions, particularly involving open source software?

[22:59] Seveas: Because defaulting to rw doesn't seem essentially secure. [22:59] .leave [22:59] wrong window :/ [22:59] Seveas, right... stupid me... [22:59] cybercod: how about now? [23:00] Hey i installed hardy with wubi and the firt time i booted i saw my windows partition but now i cant find it :-/ [23:00] later all [23:00] CyberCod, this rw is whether the filesystem is writable, it's not about filepermissions === bamed|afk is now known as bamed [23:00] pat_: #ubuntu+1 for development version discussion.

[23:01] is there any way to verify that the driver is loaded [23:01] Why do i have warnings? [23:01] Is there going to be anything different from todays 8.04 vs. after its officially released? Or would just running the update manager bring it up to date? [23:02] moralist : so,you are living in future [23:02] my clock also says 0:00 :p [23:02] Kron, because you keep misbehaving [23:02] !guidelines | Kron [23:02] Kron: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that.

[23:02] !isitout | Webfun kingv [23:02] Webfun kingv: The answer is always that it will release when the release manager says so, which is generally down to how exact order of events works out on the day and is hard for anyone (including the release manager) to put an exact time on in advance. [23:02] zvacet: something like that :) [23:02] milia, correct [23:02] cybercod i guess we can't chat? [23:02] okay now this is odd... according to mount /mnt/www isn't mounted anymore, but ls returns the updated file listing, and i can touch files that show up remotely as well :O [23:02] that's great, thanx a lot :). [23:03] ty ubotu [23:03] moralist : 8-) [23:03] T-Hawk, funky [23:03] is there a way to check if synaptics driver is loaded in xorg ? [23:03] chaqui: what client are you using? [23:03] Seveas, and mount /mnt/www says it's already mounted :O [23:03] I'm having a problem with gcc...if I run "gcc 1-1.c", it doesn't use my CFLAGS, but if I type "gcc $CFLAGS 1-1.c", it works [23:03] Gotta sleep now... U should do the same Seveas, u seems a little bit angry ;) [23:03] umount www [23:03] umount: /mnt/www is not mounted (according to mtab) [23:03] thawk@laptop /mnt $ mount www [23:03] mount.nfs: /mnt/www is already mounted or busy [23:03] T-Hawk: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [23:03] pidgin [23:03] hi, can i recover a deleted partition? [23:03] Seveas, when does it usually get released. what time?

[23:05] but the touchpad is just not working [23:05] ive also tried diffrent online sources [23:05] you modprobed it? [23:05] milia: perhaps it can be disabled by some key combination [23:05] i think? [23:05] im not positive [23:05] luka, have you tried qsynaptics ? [23:05] kingv, it says exactly what I'll say: we don't know when it'll be released [23:05] makes a big difference [23:05] Seveas, http://pastebin.org/31613 [23:05] but it's not working you say..

[23:13] I've set my CFLAGS to "-g -Wall -pedantic", but if I run "gcc 1-1.c" it doesn't catch errors that -Wall normally does unless I type "gcc $CFLAGS 1-1.c" [23:13] richw: you lost me there [23:13] yavuz cetin cheeroke === fation_linuX is now known as Psycopath [23:14] hi. when i navigate to a shared folder in nautilus, it says "you must log in to view" message. i use the samba password i created. but it doesn't work. what do i do? [23:14] anyone able to help me teach my computer to power off after shutdown? [23:15] thebigham: Sorry my bad, Applications --> accessories --> terminal. Type lspci and press the enter key and then put results into pastebin. [23:15] where's Ubanto 8.04? [23:15] richw:http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64145/ [23:15] wouter: #ubuntu-release-party please [23:15] With nfs, if you export say, /nfs/blah, on the guest machine could you mount something like say, /nfs/blah/bleh even the /nfs/blah/bleh wasn't explicitly exported and /nfs/blah was? [23:15] !hardy | wouter [23:15] wouter: 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 - Support in #ubuntu+1 - Come join the #ubuntu-release-party now! [23:15] helooo [23:16] !isitout | wouter [23:16] wouter: The answer is always that it will release when the release manager says so, which is generally down to how exact order of events works out on the day and is hard for anyone (including the release manager) to put an exact time on in advance. [23:16] thebigham, how much slower than your provisioned speed is it? All protocols? [23:16] can i recover an ntfs partition after installing ubuntu? [23:16] over it [23:16] If I do a dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hda will that for sure to a zero write on every single part of my hdd or is there a chance it may leave some area untouched, which may potentially have part of a rootkit? [23:16] anyone here have bandwith issues when updating your system?the last couple of days for me have been bad with this,my dl speed is only up to about 70k when it's supposed to be about 1mb... [23:16] tonyyarusso: thx [23:16] rise against state of union [23:16] extor: yeah, that'll nuke everything [23:17] thebigham: That is the output of ifconfig and not lspci.. try again! [23:17] you sure there is nothing BEHIND byte 0 on the hdd? That you need special commands to get to? [23:17] extor, it's safer to put random bits if you're trying to hide something [23:17] Im trying to erase, not hide [23:18] Seven_Six_Two: that's also much slower if all you want to do is make a clean slate [23:18] chaqui: you still there? [23:18] YEAH [23:18] eep. [23:18] sorry [23:18] k [23:18] seven_six_two: after taken the speed test, its 5mb/s , and the connection is 10mb/s. And i can barely connect most of the time [23:18] hey people [23:18] nav your terminal to the directory where your drivers are [23:18] im so bad in terminal. [23:18] ls to change? [23:19] extor, thebigham how far are you from an ap? [23:19] cd [23:19] richw:http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64146/ [23:19] anyone know how to correct overscan with nvidia cards [23:19] ? [23:19] easiest if you move your drivers to an easy place first using nautilus.... [23:19] how can i get my dual screen to work? I was embarrassed at a presentation today. and i don't want to be embarrassed again tomorrow [23:19] seven_six_two: the router is located ont he 1st floor and i'm on the 3rd floor. But when i log into vista, the connection is perfectly fine. [23:19] Hi I have a question about grub [23:19] So, how can I get the ubuntu mysql server to listen on all interfaces? [23:20] they are on CD [23:20] soo... [23:20] thebigham, ok. do you know the wireless chipset? [23:20] copy them to a folder on the drive [23:20] I tried restoring grub [23:20] rhombus, edit /etc/mysql/my.cnf [23:20] I've removed bind-address and skip-networking from the my.cnf file, as per MySQL docs, and it's still only listening on the loopback interface [23:20] something like /home//WIFI [23:20] but now, it seems that every time I boot, I get to a grub shell. I have to manually type "kernel etc" to boot [23:20] I don't think I have a menu.lst file in /boot/grub [23:20] Seveas: something is clobbering something somewhere [23:20] rhombus: look for the bind-address parameter in /etc/mysql/my.cnf [23:21] seven_six_two: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64146/ does that tells what chipset i'm using? [23:21] rhombus, did you restart mysql? [23:21] having problem with screenlets-manager, I click it once and it constantly opens new manager windows indefinitely [23:21] rhombus, bind-address 0.0.0.0 should work [23:21] thebigham, nm I found that just now. thanks. what about ifconfig && iwconfig? [23:21] Seveas: tried that too, it doesn't [23:21] ok i put them in home [23:21] and im in home [23:21] soo. [23:21] so [23:22] you know the name of the inf file right?

[23:23] Seveas: i'll try restarting it again [23:23] anything? [23:24] cybercod it says driver is already installed [23:24] ok [23:24] ndiswrapper -l [23:24] Seveas: okay, now it takes. I've been restarting with webmin. this time I did it from the command line. Webmin clearly not reliable for this purpose [23:24] :P [23:24] thats an L [23:24] sorry to bother, but is this the place to ask for some ufw (uncomplicated firewall) help? [23:24] blkwgdv7 : invalid driver! [23:25] Nevermind I figured out what was wrong, I ran update-grub to fix my menu.lst [23:25] hey guys how do i discover what ports on my machine are open? [23:25] rhombus, webmin sucks. If you want a webbased thing, try ebox instead of that pile of security holes [23:25] for that matter, is there a ubuntu tech support chat I could find? or is this it. I'd hate to spam with obscure driver questions [23:25] * InvisiblePinkUni sits silently here. [23:25] Seveas: ebox? I'm all ears -- where? [23:25] hvgotcodes: nmap -al or nmap localhost [23:25] hvgotcodes, netstat -ltun [23:25] hvgotcodes: I used the Network tools and do a port scan of 127.0.0.1 [23:25] sorry to bother, but is this the place to ask for some ufw (uncomplicated firewall) help? [23:25] chaqui: ok, try the other one [23:26] and sometimes it is not the file you think [23:26] quaddi, you can ask but given that it's new in hardy not many people will be able to answer === crd1b is now known as crdlb [23:26] Seveas: it looks immature :( [23:26] chaqui: what card is it?

[23:28] InvisiblePinkUni, your question was answered in #ubuntu-ops, just be patient [23:28] just to be sure [23:28] Seveas: Why? I was politely requesting I join back. It's been 30 mins.

[23:29] InvisiblePinkUni, bans rarely last for less than a day [23:29] thanks a ton, I can wait [23:29] Seveas: Some admin told me wait 10 mins. But I waited 25 mins or so. Thats why I am asking. [23:29] quaddi: that's why it's reporting those ports as closed [23:30] but the program still wont let me host [23:30] Seveas: Oh, ok. I didn't know that. They told me it's 10 mins. Thats why I was asking.

[23:32] Mecha25:thats what i did [23:32] I opened some ports to host some games, but when I try to it fails, Nmap tells me the specified ports are closed [23:32] hm... odd. I'm here for help myself, I don't really know much, thought I'd throw my 2c in, good luck though [23:33] that sounds painful [23:33] Seveas: Can I /msg you something? [23:33] InvisiblePinkUni, as long as it's not profanities, sure [23:34] Seveas: haha that was a good one :) [23:34] i realized dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg wasn't the right way to restore xorg.conf when my desktop ran like muddy pondwater [23:34] * el_ruso says Hi to everybody [23:34] hi guys :) I see it's possible now to download Ubuntu 8.04 release candidate, is that the official version, or a test version?

[23:39] hello [23:39] I know that you don't know when it'll be released, but now it says coming soon! Reasonably the should release it the same time they've switched all the days before... does anyone know at what hour that used to be? [23:39] could you please tell me which package should i remove and install or update if the dektop effects is not working now (it was okay till one kernel update) [23:39] so it does show up when you do ndiswrapper -l [23:39] el_ruso : if I look in gparted, and Can't drives for C and D ...

[23:51] I have a problem with my sound, that when i put in headphones, the speakers dont shut off. (this is a laptop) [23:51] what do I do with a .bin file? [23:51] nope [23:51] how do i find out my mac address? [23:51] of wifi [23:52] ok... explain [23:52] lots of spam in here :D [23:52] cokolina, ifconfig and look for hw address under wlan0 [23:52] !eraser [23:52] Sorry, I don't know anything about eraser - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi [23:52] the driver works fine, but there's a bug that makes it rediculously tough to use [23:52] whenever I scroll any window (particularly noticeable in firefox), there is a lag, up to around 2 seconds. needless to say this is more than annoying and makes it very difficult to accurately scroll anything. [23:52] hello,, can anyone help me to make an apache webserver pls [23:52] I'll do my best, but as you can tell, sometimes that doesn't cut the mustard [23:52] !eraser [23:52] how do I install a .bin file? [23:52] when i installed 8.04RC it would switch off the sound, but i had other issues, so I went back to 7.10 [23:52] xhamahx: sudo apt-get install apache2 [23:52] do you hear in both speaker and headphones? [23:52] msingh: thanks.... [23:52] i need a strong codec to play any restricted formats in ubuntu 7.10 [23:52] what driver are you using? [23:52] yes i do [23:52] !apache | xhamahx [23:52] xhamahx: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) [23:53] Lowkey420, set it executable and call it like ./thing [23:53] do you know what 8.04 does different with sound, so i can add that to 7.10 [23:53] How many changes have there been between the RC and the version that is coming out tomorrow? [23:53] how do I set it executable? [23:53] nathansoz: it uses pulse audio for one thing [23:53] I remember reading it uses pulse audio or something, but I dont want to screw up my sound [23:53] xhamahx, dl (tomorrow) 8.04 server edition and burn it to a cd and boot from it and follow along. [23:53] Lowkey420, how are you viewing it? shell or gui? [23:53] well, here's the thing, I'm waiting for the actual 8.04 release to come out so I can officially see if this problem is still there, as of the current RC it is. The problem disappears when I uninstall the driver. It's the one that the restricted drivers manager installs [23:53] no i do not, but have a look at the volume control [23:53] gui, I think [23:54] xanotherl, i did that, I have two channels [23:54] anybody know a secure file eraser for linux? I need to zero out the FREE SPACE only, on an ntfs drive [23:54] the same one in the add/remove programs option [23:54] master and pcm [23:54] thanx ,, [23:54] xhamahx, make sure to do the 'LAMP' part - ask us as you go... [23:54] q_a_z_steve: shred [23:54] ah... just as a test, have you tried installing the ati driver using Envy? (sssssh I know its a bad word in here) [23:54] try to mute speaker... [23:54] hi there [23:54] i need a strong codec to play any restricted formats in ubuntu 7.10 please [23:54] yep! did that first thing, same exact problem though [23:54] I did, that didn't work. :S no sound out of headphones [23:55] hassan4: VLC will play just about everything [23:55] oh^^, k [23:55] ok ,, thanks one_tao [23:55] The only issue I had with 8.04 was my brightness [23:55] I just messed my entire system upgrading from feisty to gutsy [23:55] settings for my laptop [23:55] does anyone know anything about LVM's? [23:55] it's weird, the only time I really notice it is in firefox, although I also noticed in 7.10 that if I take off Compiz it goes away [23:55] thanx [23:55] what could I read to fix the famous 139 error code? [23:55] Mecha25: sounds like the drivers are just messed up... I know they're working really hard on them right now. [23:55] My hardware fn keys didnt work [23:55] and software wasnt able to do it [23:55] well, then the best would be to wait a couple of hours and grab the official hardy [23:56] so if i could get that to work, then i would just upgrade [23:56] ok, thanks for the info, I'll wait till I hear from ATI of a new release. have a good one [23:56] Ok. [23:56] I'm 0 for 2 [23:56] hola [23:56] is there a way to open up port 21 to a user that does not have root perms? [23:56] :( [23:56] hey guys Im in problems [23:56] Do you think that there is that big a difference between the RC and official in terms of small things such as laptop support? [23:56] I don't know what I did [23:56] mijac: neither do we ;) [23:56] I hope it has an easy fix, the ssh server seems to be uninstalled, and I can't get to the machine this week :/ [23:56] hehe [23:56] Naib you beat me to it [23:56] its diffcult to solve your problem with this many laptop out there ;) [23:57] timboy what exactly are you trying to do allow some one access to ftp?

[23:58] I cannot uninstall OSS, this shows in Synaptic E: oss-linux: subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 2 [23:58] It seems like the only peoples problems that I have trouble solving are myself's :) [23:58] the guys that have your hardware the bigger the chance to get a nice neat driver [23:58] funny how that works [23:58] mijac, do you want to restore your windows boot sector? [23:59] noo [23:59] that's works good [23:59] hehe, happens^^ [23:59] hassan4: you can put hiddenmenu in your menu.lst file, and it will hide the menu unless you press ESC [23:59] i'm not able to see any computers on my network. i have samba installed. what is going on?
