| KooperKool | So Ubuntu Wont get messed up? | 00:00 |
| nucco | Steve^ he he | 00:00 |
| hwilde | josh04, it would | 00:00 |
| Derspankster | KooperKool; you'll be on a command line | 00:00 |
| hwilde | josh04, KooperKool, NO that will uninstall all dependencies | 00:00 |
| Steve^ | nucco, 2 gig of swap is enough? | 00:00 |
| josh04 | hwile, KooperKool: Depends on whether it's being removed because it's uninstalled part of the default setup | 00:00 |
| nucco | Steve^ yes, | 00:00 |
| nucco | Steve^ above that is usually not necessary. | 00:01 |
| IndyGunFreak | Steve^, rule of thumb for swap 2-2.5x amount of ram | 00:01 |
| KooperKool | because I want to install gnome-audio and it wants to remove ubuntu-desktop and ubuntu-sounds. I dont care for ubuntu-sounds, but ubuntu-desktop? | 00:01 |
| doug2266778822 | mov when u do dmesg in term after u get the error from the player you get something like this? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64445/ | 00:01 |
| unop | roffe__, the output doesn't indicate what is really missing ... it just says "checking for MODULES... no" which is really vague -- perhaps there's something ./configure does that might help. what does this output. ./configure --help | 00:01 |
| IndyGunFreak | but nucco is right, unless your running a 500mhz, more than 2gigs is probably redundant | 00:01 |
| heartsblood | Does anybody here play UrbanTerror? | 00:01 |
| J-a-k-e | ripps: my sound card is a x-fi xtreme audio, there aren't any tone options for me. I've tried playing with eq settings in amarok which has helped .. a bit. I'm actually running windows at the moment default bass and treble settings, music sounds heaps better compared to ubuntu | 00:01 |
| IndyGunFreak | KooperKool, that is a meta package, its not gonna remove the desktop | 00:01 |
| johnny_ | What is the best way to get hardy on a usb drive | 00:01 |

| nith | I can touch files but not write to them without root | 00:03 |
| IndyGunFreak | KooperKool, what are you installing/uninstalling that results in that? | 00:03 |
| zeeeee | can anyone else help me out? after trying to upgrade, it failed, told me my system may be in an "unusable state", and now after rebooting, gnome won't start (i just see a tan wallpaper and nothing else). | 00:03 |
| mulder_ | in two months... | 00:03 |
| ethana2 | mulder_: you could run FF2 for XP in WINE | 00:04 |
| mulder_ | I still need my bookmarks | 00:04 |
| roffe__ | ethana2: May seem weird of a question, but have you tried rebooting the router? | 00:04 |

| rathel | Hmm.. I need some help with Ubuntu 8.04, I just did a fresh install on my desktop, the install went okay, but everytime I try to boot into it I get the busybox. :( | 00:04 |
| illDecree | could someone help a noob w/ configuring video? what i have now, is a completely fresh install of hardy, and nothing else | 00:05 |
| nucco | ubuntu-desktop is a weird meta-package that seems to come and go in wierder ways. doesn't remove gnome though, I don't think | 00:05 |
| jmei | shift and capslock stopped working. hardy , no scim installed, USA keyboard layout set as default. | 00:05 |
| roffe__ | ethana2: yeah, well, the guy you're helping, ask him to simply reboot it.. my friend did that after a long time, and then finally it was found, with that same card of his | 00:05 |
| IndyGunFreak | nucco: it shouldn't | 00:05 |
| mulder_ | I am getting errors Ethana. so donn;t really know what to do | 00:05 |
| jaffarkelshac | rathel, that is very mysterious, i usually reboot and it works | 00:05 |
| Steve^ | I wanna go to #ubuntu+1 :) | 00:05 |

| jaffarkelshac | its not there anymore Steve^ | 00:06 |
| mulder_ | Is there a way to make sure all of firefox 2 is removed on the system? | 00:06 |

| Pelo | Wo0dy, I woudn't bet my life on a smoth upgrade with any wifi at this moment but I sugest your check in the forum with the words wifi and hardy , or some such combination | 00:23 |

| Pelo | Wo0dy, I still recommend you check comments in the forum on this, or at least try in live cd to see ifyour wifi card is detected properly | 00:25 |
| Canaris_ | Wo0dy, just backup your data and start with a clean install. pretty much only has advantages. besides it just takes a bit longer | 00:25 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Darknezz, you will also need your kernel headers | 00:25 |
| Darknezz | Starnestommy: i ran that just befor i tryed make | 00:25 |
| Pelo | Darknezz, did you ./configure first to chck for dependencies ? | 00:25 |

| Pelo | chcampb, I don'T realy know anyting about samba you are asking the wrong person | 00:37 |
| dan__ | my friend steve thought the live would work | 00:37 |
| Sergiu9 | mophead hi | 00:37 |
| ronartos | how to know if ubuntu 8.04 detects my video card correctly? | 00:37 |
| amenado | dan__-> do you need to really update or you can install another, assuming you have enuff spaces.. | 00:37 |
| Steve^ | I did? | 00:37 |
| Steve^ | ;) | 00:37 |
| chcampb | ok, thanks. | 00:37 |
| josh04 | illDecree: What card? | 00:37 |
| Abd | teamcobra does the bcm4311 works with bcm 4312? | 00:37 |
| dan__ | naw, i need to update | 00:37 |
| bsrat | what does the webpage mean by '3 years of free updates' | 00:37 |
| Pelo | t0dz, ask in #xchat | 00:37 |
| astro76 | Sergiu9: you can use the hardy alternate cd to upgrade... it doesn't matter how you installed gutsy | 00:38 |
| mophead | ronartos: you will get a better response if you say which card you are using and what you are running | 00:38 |
| dan__ | and update manager isnt good for release updates | 00:38 |
| Darknezz | Starnestommy: ya i have both | 00:38 |
| Starnestommy | t0dz: are you trying to change your ident? | 00:38 |
| t0dz | thx bro | 00:38 |
| illDecree | from what i can tell... this laptop has the cheap s3 unichrome. i copied over the drivers to the desktop, just in case i need them. | 00:38 |
| Steve^ | bsrat, you will get seurity updates for 8.04 for the next 3 years | 00:38 |
| t0dz | yeah | 00:38 |
| Sergiu9 | astro76 thanks | 00:38 |
| Sergiu9 | np | 00:38 |
| Sergiu9 | :) | 00:38 |
| Tonisius | what is themethod called when you insert from a select call? | 00:38 |
| t0dz | i puted xx "for my name" and then that now my ident.. | 00:38 |
| bsrat | as in LTS.. | 00:38 |
| Pelo | bsrat, means that hardy is gonna get 3 years of support , because it is a LTS , the others only get 18 months, for patches and security fixes | 00:38 |
| bsrat | ah ok | 00:38 |
| teamcobra | Abd: they're 2 conflicts in the b43 driver in 2.6.24..... I know for certain they fixed it in the new kernel, as I have the bcm4311rev02... been following this issue for a while ;) | 00:38 |
| Starnestommy | t0dz: /set irc_user_name new-ident | 00:38 |
| Shpook | Oh no, I've got more problems. I had a failed upgrade last night due to a lost wireless connection(I believe). Now today when I boot up my laptop, it tells me that there is a file system problem on sda1, and forces fsck. The fsck fails, mounts the root files system in read-only, and loads a maintenance shell. Thing is, I never had anything mounted as sda. sda is reserved for USB devices and such, correct? | 00:38 |
| josh04 | illDecree: Can't help, sorry. | 00:38 |
| joetheodd | Are the repositories still bogged down? | 00:39 |
| ronartos | mophead: Intel 945GM | 00:39 |
| Mimi | Hey... why are my arrow diferent colors depending on which window it is? :P | 00:39 |
| Pelo | t0dz, can you summerize your issue in one line , this is a busy channel | 00:39 |
| andril | my upgrade went ok so far - but my sourcelist still has some Gutsy items - and I can change the cd to Heron - any help? | 00:39 |
| Pelo | joetheodd, expect it for one week at lest | 00:39 |
| cod3rz | . | 00:39 |
| seamus7 | t0dz just go into System/Administration/UsersandGroups to change your username | 00:39 |
| Pelo | least | 00:39 |
| josh04 | Shpook: sda can also be SATA drives | 00:39 |
| t0dz | lol | 00:39 |
| amenado | Shpook-> nope | 00:39 |
| userx86 | sphook my hard drive partitions are listed as /dev/sda | 00:39 |
| illDecree | josh04: you dont think it will work? | 00:39 |
| t0dz | i will tape all in 1 | 00:39 |
| t0dz | wait a momento :P | 00:39 |
| mophead | ronartos: I can't help, but ask again with all the info | 00:39 |
| MrRoboto | Is Pulseaudio installed by default in Hardy? | 00:39 |
| joetheodd | Pelo :(. I agree with whoever said releases shouldn't hit the repositories until torrents have been going for a week or so. | 00:39 |
| Starnestommy | MrRoboto: I think so | 00:39 |
| Pelo | andril, just uncheck it in the software sources , in the admin menu | 00:39 |
| josh04 | illDecree: No, i just don't know how to make it work :P Never used an S3 card | 00:40 |
| MrRoboto | Starnestommy: Well I can't see it | 00:40 |
| Shpook | josh04, amenado, userx86: so, you're telling me this is bad news then? | 00:40 |
| Abd | teamcobra so I guess the problem sis really on my laptop. I'll make a fresh install of hardy, maybe the problems get solved | 00:40 |
| Jack_Sparrow | joetheodd, agreed | 00:40 |
| otarid | Pelo: reconfiguring xserver didn't work (just asked me about keyboard and mouse) | 00:40 |
| Pelo | joetheodd, well at least 24 hrs but tehre are still a lot of ppl that will try and upgrade online | 00:40 |
| Darknezz | Starnestommy: ya i have both | 00:40 |
| ronartos | mophead: It's not very specific to my video card.. but how xorg.conf now display settings | 00:40 |
| Pelo | otarid, try the binari driver then | 00:40 |
| Starnestommy | Darknezz: I'm not sure what's causing it | 00:40 |
| andril | Pelo: i did but there seemd to be less Heron compared to Gutsy | 00:40 |
| josh04 | Shpook: Not necessarily. It might just be a SATA drive :P | 00:40 |
| ronartos | is there anyway I can check which card ubuntu 8.04 detected? | 00:40 |
| userx86 | sphook i barely understand the nature of your problem, i just know that sda isn't necessarily removable storage | 00:40 |
| Pelo | otarid, did you restart X after you reconfigured ? | 00:40 |
| amenado | Shpook-> all am saying is sda does not get tied to USB devices | 00:40 |
| d4t4min32 | can someone help me with connetion issues, i have my cat /var/log/syslog | grep NetworkManager > | 00:40 |
| josh04 | otarid: you don't have an intel 965 do you? | 00:40 |
| otarid | no | 00:40 |
| otarid | let me try that | 00:41 |
| teamcobra | abd: no | 00:41 |
| joetheodd | Pelo, the thing is, I'm still on the old one and I just want to install Azureus. I can't even download headers without timing out. | 00:41 |
| alienzero | anybody know how to make the alt+tab behavior revert to the old style (it shows all windows at once)? | 00:41 |
| teamcobra | Abd: the problem _won't_ get solved | 00:41 |
| Pelo | andril, how did you upgrade anyway ? | 00:41 |
| bsrat | can i add a 500Gb sata as primary and boot from that, and have an option to boot from current xp install on secondary sata which is 300Gb? | 00:41 |
| d4t4min32 | for some reason it just wont connect.. i have my cat /var/log/syslog | grep NetworkManager > pasted in paste bin | 00:41 |
| joetheodd | Is there any way to change the timeout that APT uses when connecting to repositories? | 00:41 |
| illDecree | josh04: alright... thanks! | 00:41 |
| andril | network | 00:41 |
| t0dz | ok lets see... im new in this bissness and i installed xchat (use allways befor mirc @ win) and when i open it (xchat) it asked me about name and there i put xx (i thougt it was my nick) and then when i try to connect to my psybnc then i cant becouse its wrong ident.. and i connected to normal server there i did /whois t0dz and there i see this xx what i thougt was my nick... | 00:41 |
| andril | Pelo:network | 00:41 |
| Pelo | joetheodd, use your live cd ,, there are repos on it , I beleive az is in main | 00:41 |
| mophead | alienzero: I think it would be in the compiz preferences | 00:41 |
| Radit | (06:41:08 AM) Radit: Does anybody know how to make a shortcut using the superL (windows key) work? | 00:41 |
| teamcobra | Abd: until you compile + install 2.6.25 (which isn't gonna be supported in hardy) | 00:41 |
| mariorz | hi! what is the package name that instal gcc and all the dev studd? | 00:41 |
| amenado | alienzero-> does is not the old behaviour, it just switches between gui apps | 00:41 |
| Jack_Sparrow | t0dz, FYI /join #Xchat | 00:41 |
| nomasteryoda | oh so nice to see ubuntu+1 gone for a bit | 00:41 |
| mariorz | s/studd/stuff | 00:41 |
| Starnestommy | t0dz: do this: /set irc_user_name NEW-IDENT | 00:42 |
| Shpook | josh04, amenado: Well, my laptop only has one hdd, which I believe is sata. Are there any options I should use when I run fsck manually? | 00:42 |
| Starnestommy | mariorz: build-essential | 00:42 |
| Pelo | andril, hmmm, well you can always edit /etc/apt/sources.list and comment out the gutsy lines, just comment them out , don'T delete them , just incase | 00:42 |
| alienzero | mophead: ok, I'll check that out | 00:42 |
| d4t4min32 | can anyone help me with connection problems | 00:42 |
| KiwiJoker | mariorz sudo apt-get install build-essential | 00:42 |

| mariorz | KiwiJoker: dont we use aptitude now? :P | 00:42 |
| amenado | Shpook-> i cant recall the options of fsck, perhaps -y for repair all? | 00:42 |
| nomasteryoda | d4t4min32 is it wifi or wired? | 00:42 |
| phixxor | windows isn't THAT bad | 00:42 |
| d4t4min32 | wifi | 00:42 |
| KiwiJoker | mariorz ? | 00:42 |
| nomasteryoda | ok | 00:43 |
| Abd | teamcobra so unless i get a wireless pccard supported by hardy, my problem is not solved | 00:43 |
| mariorz | aptitude | 00:43 |

| mariorz | im pretty sure | 00:43 |
| * Pelo receives thanks and he doesn't even remember what he's being thanke for , busy channel indeed | 00:43 | |
| d4t4min32 | nomasteryoda: do you want to see my paste bin of cat /var/log/syslog | grep NetworkManager > | 00:43 |
| mneptok | mariorz: i use apt-get. most of my colleagues do, too. make of that what you will. | 00:43 |
| teamcobra | Abd: it's free ;P | 00:43 |
| Darknezz | has anyone installed xmms2 successfully on hardy? | 00:43 |

| Pelo | Darknezz, isn't it in the repos ? | 00:43 |
| nomasteryoda | ok | 00:43 |

| * phixxor nods in agreement | 00:43 | |
| nomad | whats up with the hardy docs. Nothing at help.ubuntu.com. where is best? | 00:44 |

| Jack_Sparrow | Pelo, every time | 00:44 |
| Genotrius | Okay, so! GNOME strangely vanished from me the day of the update. If anyone's willing, I'd like to talk to someone about whether or not upgrading will fix it. | 00:44 |
| amenado | Shpook-> you're welcome | 00:44 |
| happy_tux | using the alternative cd i can boot up my laptop(hp 6710b) to the menu then select install......then blank screen!...no cd activity???? | 00:44 |
| Darkside | my laptop isn't charging its battery... ubuntu is reporting it as at 0% and fully charged | 00:44 |
| otarid | Pelo: Okay, restarting did solve the resolution problem, thanks! | 00:44 |
| teamcobra | Abd: it's not too hard... hardest part is picking all of your config options | 00:44 |
| Darkside | is there a way to force ACPI to charge? | 00:44 |
| teamcobra | 1 sec, lemme get you some links | 00:44 |
| josh04 | Tristam: do you have the driver installed with ndiswrapper? | 00:44 |
| Darknezz | Pelo: ya i downloaded it and it seems to be installed but i cant see it under sound and video | 00:44 |
| mariorz | mneptok: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/aptitude | 00:44 |
| alienzero | Darknezz: I just tried, but it didn't show up in the main menu | 00:44 |

| manfromns | can someone help me? i upgraded to Hardy and now i don't see a surround tab in the Alsa settings | 00:45 |
| happy_tux | dialogue box | 00:45 |

| otarid | josh: 965M | 00:45 |
| nomasteryoda | i read thru... bb in a bit | 00:45 |
| mneptok | mariorz: what about it? | 00:45 |
| Pelo | Darknezz, try starting it from the command line, if that works edit the menu from system > prefs > main menu | 00:45 |
| Genotrius | Well, not exactly vanished. | 00:45 |
| Tristam | Josh04, I used the System/Administration/Windows Wireless Drivers app to install it | 00:45 |
| priman | is there any way to install ubuntu on a raid0 system without cleaning the disk? | 00:45 |
| Pelo | Darknezz, hardly urgent | 00:45 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Darknezz, does the battery charge with the computer shut down? | 00:45 |
| Abd | teamcobra yes that's what i'm affraid of, i'm not expeienced at that | 00:45 |
| d4t4min32 | nomasteryoda: anything stick out | 00:45 |
| Genotrius | I'm on failsafe GNOME right now. | 00:45 |
| mariorz | mneptok: ? | 00:45 |
| gtyu | l | 00:45 |
| josh04 | manfromns: Someone else may correct me, but I don't think pulseaudio supports surround | 00:45 |
| otarid | okay | 00:45 |
| mophead | manfromns: did you try going to preferences and making sure everything ischecked? | 00:45 |
| d4t4min32 | nomasteryoda: that could be a problem | 00:45 |
| mneptok | mariorz: what about that link? | 00:45 |
| alienzero | Darknezz: Dunno - I was using xxms on 6.x with no problems | 00:45 |
| josh04 | otarid: Same :P Is it working now? | 00:46 |
| d4t4min32 | anyone else that could assist, my paste bin is located here http://pastebin.com/d1cef6397 im having wifi issues | 00:46 |
| teamcobra | Abd: http://howtoforge.com/kernel_compilation_ubuntu , http://www.linuxheadquarters.com/howto/tuning/kernelsources.shtml ..... don't be afraid, it'll make you r33t ;) and to be honest, you shouldn't have to change any config stuff | 00:46 |
| Theo_ | how do I fix windows if it says its missing files? | 00:46 |
| Pelo | Genotrius, still do the command I gave you | 00:46 |
| Darkside | anybody have any idea about forcing ACPI to charge my battery? | 00:46 |
| mariorz | mneptok: tough you might want to read it | 00:46 |
| manfromns | i tried but there is no surround option | 00:46 |
| mophead | josh04: I think you're right, it doesn't | 00:46 |
| manfromns | unlike gutsy | 00:46 |
| teamcobra | Abd: this is how you learn, right? ;) | 00:46 |
| mariorz | s/tough/tought | 00:46 |
| Genotrius | Well, I'll try it, but I don't think reinstalling it is what I need to do... | 00:46 |
| mneptok | mariorz: if you are recommending aptitude, i think you should read it. :) | 00:46 |
| josh04 | Tristam: Does it show as installed, present if you type ndiswrapper -l at the prompt? (You don't need to blacklist the modules for this) | 00:46 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Darknezz, does the battery charge with the computer shut down? | 00:46 |
| otarid | josh04: Resolution is fine now, still have a problem with getting desktop effects and networking to work | 00:46 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Darkside, , does the battery charge with the computer shut down | 00:46 |
| nomasteryoda | d4t4min32, so its not doing the wpa authentication... have you tried it on an open wifi connection? | 00:47 |
| KiwiJoker | mneptok exactly what i was thinking lol | 00:47 |
| Pelo | Darkside, isn'T battery recharge a hardware thing ? | 00:47 |
| Darkside | well you can control it in the bios too | 00:47 |
| mneptok | mariorz: especially this bit: "So the points outlined on this page about using aptitude over apt-get are largely irrelevant if you're using Edgy Eft (6.10), Feisty Fawn (7.04), or any future version of Ubuntu." | 00:47 |
| nomasteryoda | someone else please help d4t4min32 | 00:47 |
| Abd | teambobra thanks for your tips, i'll try to do that. Thanks again | 00:47 |
| mophead | Pelo: mine did the same thing for a while | 00:47 |
| Darknezz | Pelo: as in typing xmms2? i did that all it says is all the commands like (play, stop, ect) | 00:47 |
| nomasteryoda | have to run | 00:47 |
| teamcobra | Abd: I have faith, you'll do just fine ;) | 00:47 |
| Darkside | it could be a hardware problem "> | 00:47 |
| Darkside | :< | 00:47 |
| d4t4min32 | nomasteryoda: my "linksys" is open... im on my neighbors connection wich seems to work fine and its open as well | 00:47 |
| Darknezz | Jack_Sparrow: battery? | 00:47 |
| Abd | :D | 00:47 |
| teamcobra | I redid my first kernel when I was 13 ;) (11 years ago) | 00:47 |
| mophead | darkside, pelo: I'm running a toshiba a200 and mine did the same thing for a while | 00:47 |
| d4t4min32 | but my "linksys" is open .. now wep | 00:47 |
| josh04 | otarid: I had some trouble getting it to not use the VESA driver. Does it show Driver "intel" in xorg.conf? | 00:47 |
| d4t4min32 | *no wep | 00:47 |
| teamcobra | and if I could do it then, you definitely can do it now | 00:47 |
| mariorz | mneptok: uhm i did? did you? | 00:47 |
| Darkside | mophead, did you solve it? | 00:47 |
| Darknezz | Jack_Sparrow: im running a PC not a laptop | 00:47 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Darknezz, tab completion error | 00:47 |
| Genotrius | Pelo: It's at the newest installed version. | 00:48 |
| mophead | Darkside: I think it sorta solved itself | 00:48 |
| Pelo | Darknezz, I think you need to install a packages called xmms2-gtk or somesuch, rigth now you only have a command line xmms2 | 00:48 |
| KiwiJoker | mariorz stick with apt-get bud | 00:48 |
| Tristam | josh04, it reports bcmwl5: driver installed | 00:48 |
| mophead | I have no idea how | 00:48 |
| cegopaiva | hi everyone | 00:48 |
| mneptok | mariorz: yes. and i also know what the distro team recommends. and that's apt-get. | 00:48 |
| d4t4min32 | nomasteryoda: did you see anythign that stuck out as being an issue | 00:48 |
| Darkside | thing is, its picking up the battery | 00:48 |
| Pelo | Darknezz, there is soemonee else with a nick close to yours we get confused, if you are told battery stuff ignore it | 00:48 |
| Darkside | and it was discharging from it | 00:48 |
| mariorz | mneptok: why? aptitude removes unneeded dependencies when removed | 00:48 |
| Darkside | but it can't charge it for some readon :< | 00:48 |
| josh04 | Tristam: Are you sure that's the right driver? As in, have you used it before? | 00:48 |
| doug2266778822 | would using someone elses codec files ruin my comp? if we both have same distro. | 00:48 |
| mneptok | mariorz: and so does apt-get | 00:48 |
| nomasteryoda | d4t4min32, then its defintely the wpa supplicant causing the issue... might want to seek out wicd ... i would google it ... what i use, but it can have issues with compiz... or so i'm told | 00:48 |
| r557 | anyone here use a freedns such as dyndns or another? | 00:48 |
| Darknezz | Pelo lol ok | 00:48 |
| mariorz | mneptok: and why did the write it if they dont want you to use it | 00:48 |
| nibsa1242b | I need help. Prior to upgrade to Hardy I enjoyed using Kate (in Gnome) as an editor. Since the upgrade if I try to open something in Kate nothing happens. | 00:48 |
| Darknezz | Pelo: kk | 00:48 |
| Abd | teamcobra each kernel I tried to compile went wrong, but at time i was suing suse 5.3 | 00:49 |
| Tristam | josh04, I was using it in gutsy before I upgraded this morning | 00:49 |
| KiwiJoker | mariorz i think you missed the point of that blog | 00:49 |
| Pelo | nibsa1242b, sudo apt-get install kate | 00:49 |
| mneptok | mariorz: the distro team did not write aptitude | 00:49 |
| d4t4min32 | nomasteryoda: i dont follow | 00:49 |
| Jack_Sparrow | mariorz, our apt-get is virtually no different that aptitude.. not your average apt-get | 00:49 |
| robeph | doug2266778822: do what? | 00:49 |
| Jack_Sparrow | than' | 00:49 |
| d4t4min32 | what is wpa supplicant | 00:49 |
| nomasteryoda | d4t4min32, also daveyates at lottalinuxlinks recommends it over network manager ... another network manager wicd is | 00:49 |
| robeph | codec a la....? | 00:49 |
| josh04 | Tristam: So it should work then. How are you connected at the moment? | 00:49 |
| mariorz | isnt aptitude ubuntu specific? | 00:49 |
| nibsa1242b | Pelo: its already installed it just doesn't open when I click on it | 00:49 |
| Pelo | d4t4min32, encryption for wifi | 00:49 |
| mneptok | mariorz: no. | 00:49 |
| nomasteryoda | d4t4min32, wicd.sf.net | 00:49 |
| madhamster | mmm hey | 00:49 |
| janki | , | 00:49 |
| Tristam | I went back to the slow b43 driver | 00:49 |
| nomasteryoda | be back later... yard work, wife.. | 00:49 |
| Darknezz | Pelo: im trying to instal xmms2-gtk but its not working. i get this E: Couldn't find package xmms2-gtk | 00:50 |
| robeph | heh you know I've never used aptitude =\ | 00:50 |
| Pelo | nibsa1242b, my guess is it is not , you only hve the link in the menu, install it again | 00:50 |
| madhamster | problem: ubuntu fucks up xp when installing | 00:50 |

| carl | Hi, simple q i hope im trying to update via update manager am using my isp's mirror, its stoped at 394 of 1349 packages with a popup "please insert "ubuntu 8.04 - hardy herron"..... ive put in both the desktop and alternate cd it wont accept it i click cancel it comes straight back | 00:50 |
| carl | im thinking my mirror doesnt have all the packages | 00:50 |
| robeph | still confused as what he meant to someone elses codec and how this could hurt anything | 00:50 |
| efrancolaporte | so what do you guys think of ubuntu 8.04 | 00:50 |
| Pelo | Darknezz, I'm not saying that's the package name, check in synaptic, search for xmms and see what is available | 00:50 |
| RoAkSoAx | after installing compizconfig-settings-manager, does anyone of you seen unchaged option ins System>Preferences>Appearance??? | 00:50 |
| mneptok | mariorz: apt-get gets improvements written for it. like the ones that page you linked to describe. aptitude does not. | 00:50 |
| robeph | efrancolaporte: it's like ubuntu 8 beta =)... with less bugs | 00:50 |
| astro76 | carl: go to system > admin > software sources, and uncheck the CD as a source | 00:50 |

| MattJ | magic_hat: Remove (or comment out the CD lines), and then sudo apt-get update | 00:54 |

| otarid | Hi, I have an intel pro/wireless 3945ABG network card on this acer laptop but it doesn't seem to be able to detect wireless connections.

| d4t4min32 | i cant figure out my wifi errors, i dont see teh problem | 01:05 |
| Gun_Smoke | WhoNeedszzz: Only thing that I needed to get was the Nvidia driver which was in the repos for the restricted driver to "use" it. | 01:05 |
| mophead | so ask the question to the room again, but this time include the type of your computer, and the name of your wifi card | 01:05 |
| josh04 | WhoNeedszzz: I keep getting people who have fuzzy audio which is fixed by changing the PCM slider in the mixer. Great fun :P | 01:05 |
| gbosso | gravemind: i thought mine was doing that the first stage took like 3-5min | 01:05 |

| astro76 | Juan: why those subfolder? in particular why desktop? | 01:39 |
| simonft2 | lol | 01:39 |

| Starnestommy | LainIwakura: the latter removes all package names strting with "scim" and their config foles | 01:44 |
| [LC]Neatchee | LainIwakura, purge removes all configuration files, thatś the simple answer | 01:44 |

| simonft2 | Abd: 2.6.25 what? | 01:54 |

| gravemind | jrabbit: but it's an easy fix | 01:54 |
| NDPMacBook | Skuller: Easiest way I can think of is to use a router that has parental controls software built in between your DSL modem and the 3 PCs. | 01:55 |
| simonft2 | Abd: how do I upgrade? | 01:55 |
| thinkingfrog | josh04: I'm not | 01:55 |

| acoustyk | astro76: It was a plugin interference. I solved the problem but thanks! | 01:56 |

| Al-Khouli | hi guys, is there a risk in changing sources.list to have gutsy words replaced with hardy then do an upgrade ?! | 01:56 |
| Flannel | Millertime_018: How is it failing? and what automated download stuff? | 01:56 |
| nith | Flannel: thx, I must not have updated my sources file yet. I was kinda hoping it'd be e17 | 01:56 |
| Skuller | genii: thanks. Sorry to not have found this myself. | 01:57 |

| Pelo | Al-Khouli, yes there is , don' tdo that | 01:57 |
| Flannel | Al-Khouli: It's doable yes, just make sure you have all the proper metapackages, or just let update-manager do it for you. | 01:57 |
| josh04 | thinkingfrog: don't trust the stats ;) Ubuntu's task manager and XP's task manager record things in entirely different ways | 01:57 |

| Roshane | what about softwares that i normally use in windows, can i get those to run on ubuntu? | 01:58 |
| Pelo | cardstroker, was this an empty hdd before you tried to isntall ? | 01:58 |

| Al-Khouli | Flannel, i keep getting an "Authenticating upgrade failed" msg | 01:58 |
| jrabbit | gravemind: nothing but a warning its overwriting a "custom config" | 01:58 |
| howapt | Does anyone know where the login settings are stored? Since upgrading I now have to log in twice... | 01:58 |
| Gun_Smoke | This probably answers itself.. But if the 64bit install is up and running, is there a possibility that I'm only running at 32? | 01:58 |
| Flannel | Al-Khouli: Whats the actual error? | 01:58 |
| acoustyk | after installing hardy is there anything I need to install to get compiz working? I want to enable the cube. | 01:58 |
| ToM-X | Hey, does anyone know how to get Kicker fully working on ubuntu? | 01:58 |
| thinkingfrog | josh04: I was wondering if there were options in xorg.conf...maybe it's just gnome | 01:58 |
| Millertime_018 | the alternate install cd? i got 8.04 straight from ubuntu.com though | 01:58 |

| ubotu | Millertime_018: The Alternate CD is a classical text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the alternate checkbox on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal - Torrent at http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.04/ubuntu-8.04-alternate-i386.iso.torrent | 01:58 |
| bagelong | the ubuntu support says there are drivers included with the intall. | 01:58 |

| Pelo | Roshane, you'll get linux alternatives to do the same job | 01:59 |
| thinkingfrog | chaqul: what video card? | 01:59 |
| Flannel | Roshane: depending on what they are, yes. But you're better off finding comperable programs that are native, and using those instead. | 01:59 |
| josh04 | thinkingfrog: Do you have compiz enabled/does it work if you do? | 01:59 |

| Juan | astro76 thank you ^ ^ | 02:06 |
| gravemind | jrabbit: yeah, for sure, though I'm still really concerned that dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg isn't working as it should, maybe you should submit that as a bug | 02:06 |

| CITguy | cardstroker: have you tried "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"? | 02:07 |

| cardstroker | pelo, will do | 02:07 |
| aboo0ood_ | Flannel, Authentication failed Authenticating the upgrade failed. There may be a problem with the network or with the server. | 02:07 |

| Pelo | josh04, I know it's annoying, we are linux users damit , we can not afraid of command lines or of being prompted for answers | 02:08 |
| aboo0ood_ | Flannel, that's why i was thinking of changing sources.list manually | 02:09 |
| IndyGunFreak | acoustyk: right click desktop, change desktop preferences, visual effects tab. | 02:09 |
| aboo0ood_ | Flannel, what do u think ? | 02:09 |
| nith | acoustyk: system -> preferences -> appearence -> visual effects | 02:09 |
| Pingviller_ | ok I have a really wierd program since I updated ubuntu a few days ago... when I delete files, they just vanish. and they don't free up space and they're not to be found in trashcan... every program that was meant for KDE also stopped working.. | 02:09 |

| ommegang | does virtulbox work under hardy? | 02:09 |
| Juan | astro76 just before i leave, there is no way that ubuntu can read a user profile of windows server correct? | 02:10 |
| oddalot | bagelong: what do you mean by unrecognized? | 02:10 |
| Flannel | aboo0ood_: Changing sources.list won't help, it still connects to the same servers, and through the same libraries. Try a different mirror (software sources). You do need to remember that a *lot* of people are trying to get stuff from the mirrors right now, so it is completely possible that its just too slow | 02:10 |
| nith | Pingviller_: I just solved a problem with those symptoms about 15 minutes ago... do "df" and see if the drive your home is on is full | 02:10 |
| josh04 | Pelo: Exactly! This GUI nonsense is just weakness of character :P | 02:10 |
| acoustyk | nith: It says that the effects couldn't be enabled. I have a radeon x300 128mb graphics card and this stuff worked in gutsy | 02:10 |

| nucco | Flannel: I think there's enough bandwidth if you choose your mirrors wisely. | 02:10 |
| astro76 | Juan: if you share it in windows you can access the files | 02:10 |
| nomasteryoda | comerc, its a tray package that lets you switch from one window decoration type... say kwin, metacity, ... compiz | 02:11 |

| Skuller | How do I quit Automatix, it is downloading jre but is very slow. I need to kill the process | 02:13 |
| bagelong | oddalot: It keeps telling me that the driver provided by dell is invalid. I have also tried going through the restricted driver utility. | 02:13 |
| astro76 | mehal88: you should uninstall the old kernels to get rid of the entries if you want | 02:13 |
| gravemind | !automatix | 02:13 |
| ubotu | Automatix is no longer developed or supported by its creators and is not recommended, supported or needed by Ubuntu. See http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html and « /msg ubotu WorksForMe » | 02:13 |
| Flannel | mehal88: After the xp one (before the chainloader +1) add a line "savedefault", then instead of "default 0" make it (this is up near the top) `default saved` | 02:13 |
| CITguy | cardstroker: sorry, "Ubuntu desktop" | 02:13 |
| Pelo | howapt, Pingviller_ sudo rm -rf ~/.Trash && ln -s ~/.local/share/Trash/files | 02:13 |
| josh04 | jrabbit: See if you've got an older version of xorg.conf from gutsy or something which you can copy the graphics card section out of | 02:13 |
| gravemind | Skuller: you could use the force quit thing | 02:13 |
| oddalot | bagelong: don't know then sorry :( | 02:13 |

| otarid | any solution to this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/178530 ? | 02:15 |

| Vertelemming | Two post-upgrade questions... one, is it normal for hda1 to have become sda1, shoving my SATA drives down? Two, new window behaviour seems to be off. New windows are appearing below the topmost window, instead of above it and taking the focus. Any ideas on that one? | 02:16 |
| Pingviller_ | Pelo: it worked :) at least the space is back :) thanks ;) what do you mean with link btw? I'm kinda new to ubuntu and havn't learned that much yet | 02:16 |

| luser | Maybe the repositories are overloaded, I'm seeing some "Failed" when downloading package information, not sure which ones matter | 02:16 |
| Flannel | Vertelemming: It's normal for hda to become sdX, the order depends on your BIOS, and that's why we moved to UUIDs instead of /dev/* | 02:16 |
| Pelo | Pingviller_, like a shortcut in windows, but so much more | 02:16 |
| * gravemind wonders how much bandwidth pelo has | 02:17 | |
| Pelo | Pingviller_, open a terminal and type man ln | 02:17 |
| josh04 | supersako: either transmission or rtorrent. or utorrent in wine :P | 02:17 |
| nucco | gooody: the default one is good. just install the "dictd" packages and recommends | 02:17 |
| CITguy | supersako: 8.04 has Transmission, but you can use any bittorrent client you want | 02:17 |
| Vertelemming | Flannel: Danke. | 02:17 |

| nucco | gooody: and then configure it to use the local dictionary server | 02:17 |
| gooody | nucco: ok, thanks. | 02:17 |

| howapt | Pelo: Nah, I think its due to some other issues im having... I keep getting "unable to resolve host" on sudo (despite it still sudoing), and also a sendmail: fatal: issue popping up when I sudo! might do a clean inst. of hardy | 02:19 |
| CITguy | hazza: how did you install the driver? | 02:19 |

| JPSmon | test | 02:20 |

| binskipy2u | well hardy is nice. | 02:20 |
| SeaPhor | josh04: look at my lshw -C network at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64451/ | 02:20 |

| OxDeadC0de | i use padsp for wine, libflashsupport +nspluginwrapper for flash | 02:20 |
| * Pelo wonders why ppl always seem to decide that he's the one to ask , he only answers the easy question, everybody else does the hard stuff | 02:20 | |
| nucco | dabbill: you probably have an ati card? I used to have that problem, only way I know to fix it is to install totem-xine and the xine plugins or if you're using anyother player, set your video output to GL | 02:20 |
| CITguy | hazza: give it a whirl | 02:20 |
| binskipy2u | anyone have any idea how to remaster my install? | 02:20 |

| fraserdp | My wireless card wont work, it shows under sudo lshw -C network, but wont enable or anything. i think this is because it should show in restriced drivers. I have a cisco aironet. Anyone know how to make this work? | 02:21 |
| dassouki | jeeves__, my sound was working perfectly on 7.10 until i upgraded | 02:21 |

| Vertelemming | luser: Have been digging through the preferences, but no luck so far finding a setting like that. | 02:22 |
| Pelo | bagelong, start by checking in menu > system > admin > restricted driver, make sure noting is in need of use | 02:22 |

| mr_smithers | anyone some samba assistance | 02:22 |

| dabbill | nucco, i have gxine and plugins installed | 02:22 |
| Pelo | mr_smithers, try in #samba | 02:23 |
| AlienX | good god there are a lot of people around | 02:23 |
| bagelong | Nothing shows up, although this is what everyone seems to keep suggesting. | 02:23 |
| nucco | dabbill: try setting the video output to GL | 02:23 |
| dassouki | jeeves__, black lines over menu ? | 02:23 |
| josh04 | gravemind: I have a shortlist of problems since last december which refuse to budge an inch :P | 02:23 |
| SeaPhor | josh04: right now i'm on the 8.04 live cd because for the past 4 months i have not been able to get wireless working, no matter what walkthu i went to or this site or that,,, so just now i put in the live cd and thats where i am, was hoping 8.04 would just work but oh well | 02:23 |
| dabbill | nucco, where do i do that at? | 02:23 |
| Daisuke_Ido | mehal88, kernal images aren't that big, but if you have to, just uninstall the corresponding package in synaptic | 02:23 |
| nucco | dabbill: its probably a gamma setting, but I don't know where to fix that | 02:23 |
| AstralSin | how can i make aptitude create the menu.lst for grub? i screwed up and said no when it asked me to replace it | 02:23 |
| KooperKool | wow..... the servers are loaded | 02:23 |
| nucco | dabbill: gxine preferences | 02:23 |
| Crosby | hello | 02:23 |
| bagelong | pelo: nothing shows up in restricted drivers, although this seems to be the the most logical solution. | 02:23 |
| Pelo | mehal88, go in syanptic in the admin menu , search for linux and check the appropriate packages for removal | 02:23 |
| nullbnx | ok, so i just updated to 8.04 and now amarok keeps crashing over and over again... any recommendations? | 02:23 |
| mad_max02 | yeah | 02:23 |
| josh04 | SeaPhor: Wireless on the LiveCD was always shaky for me. Try installing to a small partition and seeing if it works | 02:23 |
| mad_max02 | dont update :D | 02:23 |
| mehal88 | pelo, well i am not sure why its there, if there is any logic to why its there, i dont mind keeping it, but i am jus tnot sure why two linux entries showed up on my grub list one day | 02:23 |
| Crosby | SUP | 02:24 |
| Pelo | bagelong, in the littel network manager applet in the top panel , mouse over any msg ? | 02:24 |
| Crosby | SUP | 02:24 |
| jeeves__ | dassouki, if I open a new window, the menu buttons and the menu items (ie. file, view, etc) will have a back bar over them. I think it's somehow related to my random freezing problem | 02:24 |
| gravemind | josh04: I had one like that, feisty broke my cd drive, it has never been fixed since | 02:24 |
| AlienX | AstralSin, just use the menu.lst file as a template for the latest kernel | 02:24 |
| AlienX | AstralSin, you just need to change the file names of the kernels to the latest ubuntu kernel | 02:24 |
| DrDerek | anyone in the Puget Sound area of Washington State? | 02:24 |
| isdepopecath | Pelo: (I was the newbie trying to access my vista partition) I installed the NFTS Configuration Tool, but it isn't recognizing any more partitions, unless I don't know where to go to see that. Any ideas? | 02:24 |
| Pelo | mehal88, it's your old kernel, it's there incase there is a problem with the new one so you can boot the old one and fix the issue if it works fine you can remove them from synaptic | 02:24 |
| AstralSin | AlienX: what about the root=UUID=bb3d2b7e-c64c-4f1b-8efd-b0361af81208 garbage? | 02:24 |
| bagelong | pelo: just says wired network connection. I am not sure if the network icon in the top righthand is what you meant. | 02:24 |
| ruewan | ok | 02:25 |
| dassouki | jeeves__, did u do a fresh install or an upgrade? is ur graphics card working properly? have u tried reinstalling ubuntu-desktop? | 02:25 |
| LadyNikon | Cusoon959: :) | 02:25 |
| ruewan | my upgrade to hardy was relatively painless | 02:25 |
| cardstroker | CITguy, I am selecting my mouse setup, I use USB, which should I seleect? /dev/psaux or ttys0 or tts0 or gpmdata? | 02:25 |
| KooperKool | !ubuntu-desktop | 02:25 |
| ubotu | 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. | 02:25 |
| mehal88 | i dont believe i was using the old kernel for more than maybe an hour until i updated to the newer one about a week ago | 02:25 |
| Pelo | isdepopecath, ntfs partitons in gusty and above should be detected automaticaly and mounted read only , didnT' it do that ? | 02:25 |

| KooperKool | what is it? | 02:25 |
| fraserdp | My wireless card wont work, it shows under sudo lshw -C network, but wont enable or anything. i think this is because it should show in restriced drivers. I have a cisco aironet. Anyone know how to make this work? | 02:25 |
| Cusoon959 | Flannel, I know how to set the hostname. | 02:26 |

| Cusoon959 | and yes, that's what the problem is | 02:26 |
| jeeves__ | dassouki, at first, I thought it was a bad upgrade, so I blew it away and reinstalled. My graphics card has no issues under M$. | 02:26 |

| gravemind | josh04: you might just have to give up the luxury of hibernate, unless it's really important to you | 02:27 |
| CITguy | hazza: the only thing i can suggest is installing the driver straight from NVIDIA | 02:27 |
| jeeves__ | dassouki, how'd you guess? | 02:27 |
| Pelo | bagelong, ok it is likely that there is not linux driver for your card, so you will have to use the windows driver with ndiswrapper, that,s mentionned in the wifi docs | 02:27 |
| hazza | AlienX: What do I change? | 02:27 |
| gravemind | I never really liked hibernate in ubuntu anyway, regular boot is just as fast for me | 02:27 |
| isdepopecath | Pelo: It shows 'Computer,' but if I go into that, it only shows up with my dvd drive and 'File System' | 02:27 |
| AlienX | hazza, the default resolution :) read the file, and you should be able to figure it out :) | 02:27 |
| dassouki | jeeves__, i used to get black screen flashes on nvidia. the driver takes some googling to get it to work, but once it does, it's a beauty | 02:28 |
| bagelong | pelo: how can I get the most information about my card in the terminal - what command do i need? | 02:28 |
| KooperKool | :-D | 02:28 |
| Pelo | isdepopecath, right click , mount , see if they show up on your desktop | 02:28 |
| [ | :D | 02:28 |
| AlienX | bagelong, what kind of card? | 02:28 |
| josh04 | gravemind: Hibernate's useful because I dual boot and have to swap between the two a lot. I can hibernate both ubuntu and vista and never have to open firefox again :P | 02:28 |
| fraserdp | bagelong: sudo lshw -C network | 02:28 |
| hazza | AlienX: So they didn't test it enough and we have to hand edit, great | 02:28 |
| gravemind | josh04: ah that's a good point | 02:28 |
| jeeves__ | dassouki, any recomended pages? | 02:28 |

| SeaPhor | josh04: well, if i boot back into my gutsy, could you help me make that work? I'm happy with 7.10 and not ready to change unless it gets wireless working, i have 8.04 on my laptop | 02:28 |

| mehal88 | pelo: do i still delete the entries from my menu.lst file or will they go away by themselves? | 02:29 |
| AlienX | bagelong, what specifically are you looking for? | 02:29 |
| Kineas | hi | 02:29 |
| Pelo | bagelong, lspci should list your card, get the number and such, ndiswrapper you can install from synaptic, ndiswrapper-config as well or -utils , i donT' recall, and you'll need the .inf file ffrom the card's installation cd | 02:29 |
| josh04 | gravemind: It'd be okay if sleep worked, but that hangs on resume the _second_ time I do it : / obscure errors ftw | 02:29 |
| Starnestommy | Darknezz: is libgtk-2.0-dev or libgtk-1.2-dev installed? | 02:29 |
| AlienX | MoTec, most netgear or linksys ones will work with ndiswrapper | 02:29 |
| bagelong | fraserdp: i tried that, but nothing happened, is there a slash | 02:29 |
| jeeves__ | lol, I don't have that much time. I'm a network admin with a rack of DR boxes that I FINALY got built this week, and they ALL need OSes loaded and configured on them. | 02:29 |
| amenado | MoTec usb and gigabit? you do know that USB doesn even come close to giga bit speed eh? | 02:29 |

| rkvirani | so tell me, this bug, where the drop shadow on my window is PINK, how do I fix it? | 02:30 |
| SeaPhor | josh04: loggin back to 7.10 | 02:30 |
| dassouki | jeeves__, ya that's the thing with linux, once it runs it's perfect, a lot easier to maintain than ms | 02:30 |

| Pelo | isdepopecath, patience, the servers very loaded , might take a few minutes to dl and install , the command i gave you will open the app automaticaly when it is installed | 02:43 |
| nucco | comerc: yes, with the text installer, you have to choose manually. easiest way out is to borrow a ps/2 keyboard | 02:43 |
| mayakuza | gravemind: can i pm you? to menny ppl are talking here hehe | 02:43 |
| AlienX | Wolf23, no...i meant which nvidia card are you using? Go to http://www.albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html and follow the instructions | 02:43 |
| comerc | ahh | 02:43 |

| gravemind | mayakuza: sure | 02:43 |
| PhilcoBill | what is the command that is the same as windows chldsk? | 02:43 |
| nucco | comerc: besides, if the live cd is having trouble booting, chances are the installed system will present you with the same problems... unless you're sure they're fixable | 02:43 |
| biabia | bazhang: -2.6.24-16-g | 02:43 |
| josh04 | bagelong: nope, just exactly as they are between the quotes: "blacklist ssb" | 02:43 |

| otarid | about the wireless problem with intel 3945... picking the Ubuntu 8.04, kernel 2.6.24-14-generic options instead of -16 fixes it | 02:43 |
| Limerick | One of their new features has something to do with dual screens | 02:44 |
| otarid | so i guess it's a kernel problem | 02:44 |
| Wolf23 | AlienX: how can i know? | 02:44 |
| Flannel | Zaqq: what sort of input? | 02:44 |
| gravemind | lol | 02:44 |
| Pelo | isdepopecath, no promisses yet, M$ does not play well with others and Vista is their latest attempt at bullying other OSes from the computers, might not work | 02:44 |
| CITguy | cardstroker: or "sudo apt-get install xfonts* " | 02:44 |
| Limerick | I don't have dual screens set up, so, I'm not sure exactly how they work | 02:44 |
| bjb1959 | I just upgraded to Hardy and I can't logoff/shutdown/reboot without using the ctrl+alt+backspace. the logoff icon just makes desktop clear but nothing else any ideas? | 02:44 |
| Limerick | But they're definitely still there | 02:44 |
| bagelong | josh04: ok. Do I save now? | 02:44 |
| AlienX | Wolf23, just download, install, and run envy...it'll make your life easier | 02:44 |

| Zaqq | Flannel: like a dos screen ... with the terminal prompt as (initramfs) | 02:44 |
| SeaPhor | josh04, i cant find it, i did dmesg /home/dmesg | 02:44 |
| bazhang | biabia: that is the normal hardy kernel; by saying newest many might think (newest from kernel org, compiled yourself) what is your exact issue? | 02:44 |
| LainIwakura | Hello, what should I do if after installing an xfonts .deb package and enabling bitmapped fonts using "sudo dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config" and a restart, the fonts do not show up anywhere? Strangely, I can see them in "xfontsel". The package is xfonts-artwiz. Thanks. | 02:44 |

| AlienX | Starnestommy, i don't particularly care :) | 02:45 |
| Zaqq | evand: so do i need to reinstall ? | 02:45 |
| bazhang | Starnestommy: not for gutsy, but is in repos for hardy | 02:45 |
| evand | Zaqq: when you get to that initramfs prompt you can type `cat /casper.log` and shift page up through it, look for anything that resembles a serious error. | 02:45 |
| evilbug | Pelo- :O =P | 02:45 |
| evand | Zaqq: not necessarily | 02:45 |

| biabia | bazhang: my drives listed in my /etc/fstab wont mount with that kernel, but they mount fine with the previous kernel. (-2.6.22-14-) In 'dmesg' it says the driver sd and sr need updating, but all I can find on google is bug reports. cant find how to update the drivers | 02:46 |

| bazhang | biabia: these are ntfs drives? or what | 02:47 |
| mayakuza | gravemind: i delited the partisjon in partisjon manager | 02:47 |
| evand | Zaqq: that's ok, you want it to do it after a reboot. Just let it reboot into windows. | 02:47 |
| Bubble_tea | Pici not much help | 02:47 |

| me1 | the new ubuntu* | 02:47 |
| ffm_ | me1, bittorrent. | 02:47 |
| osxdude | Pelo, I would think so too. :) | 02:47 |
| Bubble_tea | Pici http://lifehacker.com/380365/rarcrack-opens-protected-archives-without-passwords | 02:47 |
| Pelo | me1, get it with torrents | 02:47 |
| AlienX | me1, there might be some torrents | 02:47 |
| Wolf23 | AlienX: but i dont know how to download it? | 02:47 |
| mayakuza | gravemind: now i have 200gb that i can't putt into the ext3 but i can make a new one whit ext2 | 02:47 |
| bagelong | josh04: Do I need to do this. I already have ndiswrapper installed. | 02:47 |
| Pelo | !torrents > me1 use the alternate install cd | 02:47 |
| AlienX | Wolf23, there are full instructions on that page | 02:47 |
| koomber1664 | I used the 'help me boot from CD' option for ubuntu but I didn't install, how do I disable the boot screen? | 02:47 |
| gravemind | mayakuza: you can't "resize" your ext3 partition? | 02:48 |
| mayakuza | gravemind: if i make a new partisjon whit 200gb ext2 will i make a new /home or how dos it work | 02:48 |
| josh04 | bagelong: Do you have ndiswrapper-utils as well? | 02:48 |
| biabia | bazhang: 2 of them are ext3 , and one is /dev/sda1 on /media/disk-1 type fuseblk (rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,allow_other,blksize=512) | 02:48 |
| Assid | AlienX: hrmm | 02:48 |
| mayakuza | Gravemind: no it's gray so i can't do ennything whit the ext3 | 02:48 |
| bagelong | josh04: I do not know. Is there a way to know? | 02:48 |
| Darknezz | Starnestommy: i got the same error | 02:48 |
| bjb1959 | anyone know anything about hardy?? | 02:48 |
| AlienX | Assid, ? | 02:48 |
| Wolf23 | AlienX: it says sudo apt-get remove envy <-- i dont understand this? | 02:48 |
| Starnestommy | Darknezz: I'm confused | 02:48 |
| gravemind | mayakuza: making a separate partition for /home is a good idea, but I would choose ext3 if I were you | 02:48 |
| Assid | gravemind: oh i had that issue yday.. was converting a guy to TRY ubuntu | 02:48 |
| Pelo | bjb1959, what do yo want to know ? | 02:48 |
| AlienX | Wolf23, you type that in :) | 02:48 |
| doug_ | I'm having a problem with the nvidia driver for 8.04 AMD64. Has anyone seen an actual solution? | 02:48 |
| bjb1959 | I just upgraded to Hardy and I can't logoff/shutdown/reboot without using the ctrl+alt+backspace. the logoff icon just makes desktop clear but nothing else any ideas? | 02:48 |
| josh04 | bagelong: Just try the apt-get command and if it's already installed it'll just say | 02:49 |
| AlienX | Wolf23, but you don't have to worry about that as you're not upgrading | 02:49 |
| Wolf23 | AlienX: ok | 02:49 |
| Assid | gravemind: finally refused to resize the partition.. and hes like screw it.. and left it on vista | 02:49 |
| Pelo | doug_, what is the actual problem ? | 02:49 |
| gravemind | Assid: heh, wow | 02:49 |
| mayakuza | gravemind: so when i make a new i'l choose ext3? | 02:49 |
| biabia | bazant that last one is an external. all three drives mount fine if i select the previous kernel but when i select the new one i get an error saying i need to update the driver sd and sr | 02:49 |
| ffm_ | Which is better in a mirror, latency or bandwidth? | 02:49 |
| Assid | gravemind: yeah.. it ran for over an hour and did NOTHING | 02:49 |
| bazhang | biabia: are you able to check their new listings and adjust fstab accordingly? able to mount them manually? | 02:49 |
| doug_ | a black screen ... can get to ttys ok | 02:49 |
| senghoo | HI ~ ALL | 02:49 |
| Darknezz | Starnestommy: I keep getting this error http://www1.ca.dell.com/content/products/category.aspx/desktops?c=ca&cs=cadhs1&l=en&s=dhs | 02:49 |
| bjb1959 | Pelo I just upgraded to Hardy and I can't logoff/shutdown/reboot without using the ctrl+alt+backspace. the logoff icon just makes desktop clear but nothing else any ideas? | 02:49 |
| Pelo | bjb1959, check i menu > syusetm > admin > users check your user's permission to shutdown | 02:49 |
| nucco | ffm_: both :) higher bandwidth, lower latency is better | 02:49 |
| bagelong | josh04:says I am good to go aready. | 02:49 |
| gravemind | mayakuza: yes. now right now, are you running on the live cd, or are you installed already? | 02:49 |
| AlienX | ffm_, that's kind of a silly question as both factors are important | 02:50 |
| mayakuza | gravemind: then i'l have 2 filesystems whit ext3 | 02:50 |
| ffm_ | AlienX, I realize that. | 02:50 |
| Starnestommy | Darknezz: wrong link? | 02:50 |
| kbrooks | question | 02:50 |
| mayakuza | gravemind: i have instaled allready | 02:50 |
| josh04 | bagelong: type ndiswrapper -l, it shoul say no drivers isntalled | 02:50 |
| gravemind | mayakuza: yes, however you also need a swap partition | 02:50 |
| kbrooks | how do i show the time directly on my desktop? | 02:50 |
| Pelo | doug_, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg from the recovery mode | 02:50 |
| gravemind | mayakuza: of about 1 gb in size | 02:50 |
| josh04 | SeaPhor: Is there a wlan0 in iwconfig? | 02:50 |
| ffm_ | AlienX, I mean is a mirror with higher latency but higher bandwith better than a close mirror with less bandwith? | 02:50 |
| bazhang | ffm_: bandwidth but kinda offtopic here | 02:50 |
| Pelo | kbrooks, gdesklets, or screenlets | 02:50 |
| bjb1959 | Pelo Oh that's right, I forgot about making sure permissions are set right after upgrade. thanks I'll try that first | 02:50 |
| doug_ | thanks ... I'll try it | 02:50 |
| Pelo | kbrooks, or conky or gtkrll | 02:50 |
| mayakuza | gravemind: oky. but how will thath efekt my system whit 2 ext3 systems? | 02:50 |
| ffm_ | bazhang, Not really, this is about ubuntu repo mirrors. | 02:50 |
| LainIwakura | Hello.. I installed this font and it shows up in xfontsel but not in any drop-down fonts menu. How do I actually use the font? Thanks for any help. | 02:50 |
| AlienX | ffm_, neither is an indication of what download speeds you'll actually get | 02:50 |
| Wolf23 | AlienX: igot this E: Couldn't find package envyng | 02:50 |
| osxdude | Alright, downloading. | 02:51 |
| evilbug | Pelo- i completely re-installed gutsy and installed all the updates for it,and now when i log in it gets stuck on the light brown screen. | 02:51 |
| kbrooks | Pelo, ty | 02:51 |
| biabia | bazhang: no im not sure how to check the new listings, but i could try to mount them manually although im not precisely sure how to do that either. i had help with it before but i saved the instruction i recieved | 02:51 |
| seriouslycgi | anyone help me with samba configuration its kinda dead in the samba channel? | 02:51 |
| bazhang | ffm_: you creating one? | 02:51 |
| mayakuza | gravemind: i wont loose all the files i have now? | 02:51 |
| nucco | ffm_: probably... unless your pipe is smaller than the lower mirror, and you think it won't be crowded | 02:51 |
| bagelong | josh04: in the terminal? Nothing happended | 02:51 |
| AlienX | Wolf23, cd to the directory where you downloaded envy | 02:51 |
| Darknezz | Starnestommy: I keep getting this error configure: error: *** GTK+ >= 1.2.2 not installed - please install first *** | 02:51 |
| Darknezz | (HAHAHA sorry) | 02:51 |
| ffm_ | bazhang, No. | 02:51 |
| osxdude | evilbug- install hardy :) | 02:51 |
| cygoku_ | How are the repositories feeling right now ?!?! | 02:51 |
| cardstroker | rkvirani, what ya got? | 02:51 |
| gravemind | mayakuza: it doesn't make a difference in how your system will run, it's just a little bit safer to have /home on a separate partition. but you don't really have to | 02:51 |
| AlienX | Wolf23, though i *think* ubuntu has some tool that'll let you just click on the package and it'll install for you | 02:51 |
| nucco | ffm_: or use bittorrent and forget about bandwidth issues :) | 02:51 |
| Starnestommy | Darknezz: I'm stuck. I can't figure out why that keeps failing | 02:51 |
| evilbug | osxdude- that didn't work,the install gave me crap :| | 02:51 |
| osxdude | cygoku_, I think they are good | 02:51 |
| ffm_ | nucco, that won't work for APT, will it? | 02:51 |
| josh04 | bagelong: Hold on while I find you a link | 02:51 |
| gravemind | mayakuza: the reason you can't resize your existing partition is because you're running on it | 02:51 |
| bazhang | ffm_: what is the exact nature of your issue then? just curious/chat or have actual issues creating a mirror | 02:51 |
| osxdude | evilbug- what kind of crap? | 02:51 |
| Pelo | Darknezz, install the related -dev package , look in synaptic | 02:52 |
| Wolf23 | AlienX: i dont download the envy, coz i dont know where is the download package | 02:52 |
| gravemind | mayakuza: if you boot up from the live cd, you will be able to resize it | 02:52 |
| nucco | ffm_: :p silly me :p | 02:52 |
| ffm_ | bazhang, I'm choosing a mirror for my systems. | 02:52 |
| Pelo | ok I'M going on a brake, later folks | 02:52 |
| AlienX | Wolf23, it's on the page. | 02:52 |
| cygoku_ | Cool. | 02:52 |
| ffm_ | nucco, I bittorrent the ISOs of course... | 02:52 |
| gravemind | mayakuza: maybe that's what you should do, if you don't want 2 partitions | 02:52 |
| nucco | ffm_: latency generally won't affect the speed of the download | 02:52 |
| AlienX | Wolf23, it'll be something like envyng.deb or something | 02:52 |
| Darknezz | Pelo: i did but it still dont work | 02:52 |
| mayakuza | gravemind: i want to have 2 partisjons | 02:52 |
| SeaPhor | josh04, 1 sec,, | 02:52 |
| Darknezz | Pelo: i almost installed all the files | 02:52 |
| gravemind | mayakuza: good :) | 02:52 |
| trippingmonke1 | does anyone here have any experience with the NVIDIA 169.12 driver in hardy? | 02:52 |
| mayakuza | gravemind: but i don't wanna lose the files i already have in /home | 02:52 |
| josh04 | bagelong: Can you type lspci and copy me the line referring to Broadcom? | 02:52 |
| bazhang | ffm_: best to hold off on choosing; the ones you choose now may not be the best because of the recent release of hardy | 02:53 |
| josh04 | SeaPhor: thanks | 02:53 |
| gravemind | mayakuza: ok, we will be careful, and not lose them | 02:53 |

| SeaPhor | josh04, how do i get there? | 02:54 |
| AlienX | Wolf23, yes, go to that web page | 02:54 |
| evand | binarybandit: if that doesn't work, cat /casper.log at the initramfs prompt, shift page up and look for errors | 02:54 |
| ffm_ | bazhang, Is there a program I can run that will do so automatically? The GUI just does latency. | 02:54 |

| AlienX | Wolf23, it depends on what card you have. How old is your computer? | 03:01 |
| mojo | thinkingfrog: i really can't say. i am not sure if it switches WMs when you disable effects. i don't think it does, however, as i seem to remember some of the key bindings from compiz still working w/o fx | 03:01 |

| TheFearsomeFufu | I'm trying to upgrade to Hardy. However, when ever I try to, the upgrade tool thing says I don't have enough disk space. How can I clear more space? I emptied my trash, and there's hardly anything on my desktop or home folder or anything. I dunno why it's saying I don't have enough room. | 03:03 |
| mojo | leo_rockw: i will check the manual, just though i'd ask quick since like there's a 99% chance many of the users here are running it and would know off the top of their head. Xchat it was on the channel-tab context menus. Just trying xchat-gnome out and wanted to spare my screen. | 03:03 |
| josh04 | SeaPhor: What happens if you click "wlan0 connection properties"? | 03:03 |
| bagelong | josh04: every place it says driver? | 03:03 |
| josh04 | bagelong: yes | 03:04 |
| darkcrab | yes I did seamus7, it is a group of themes, and they dont show up | 03:04 |
| ffm_ | TheFearsomeFufu, Uh, how much free space is on the disk? | 03:04 |
| ceeejay | Would anyone be willing to step me thru some basics since my upgrade? | 03:04 |
| esperegegu | ffm_: pressing ctrl-alt-F1 gives me a prompt. when I type my username and enter it sails login incorrect immediately, even before I have to type my password | 03:04 |
| ffm_ | theunixgeek, I don't use OSX, so I can't be _all_ that much help. Sorry. | 03:04 |

| darkcrab | seamus7, I got them from add/remove applications under applications and they are called "ubuntu firefox themes" | 03:05 |

| Pelo | xyzpaw, remote access in command lne I think ? | 03:16 |
| Starnestommy | xyzpaw: ssh is Secure Shell, which is used for remove logins | 03:16 |
| leo_rockw | xyzpaw: it's a way to remotely connect to another computer from a shell | 03:16 |
| xrc | fuck even xchat is configured to get to somewhere :( | 03:16 |

| w30 | logi2: I am not on Ubuntu right now so I don't know the exact menu mavigation sorry | 03:17 |
| xyzpaw | so SSH is like a Virtual Private Network right? | 03:17 |
| josh04 | nucco: filesystems make me shudder :P too many bad memories | 03:17 |
| ffm_ | enaner, sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop | 03:17 |
| Pelo | n-iCe, webcam is not all that great in linux in general, but I'll give you a link | 03:17 |
| enaner | ffm wats sudo aptitude | 03:17 |

| darkcrab | i can uncheck the services I dont need right?? | 03:17 |
| osxdude | enaner, there is a KDE base installed so you can run KDE apps, also Kubuntu is available if you want the fulll KDE expereence | 03:17 |
| Pelo | darkcrab, yes | 03:17 |
| leo_rockw | xyzpaw: not exactly... but you could look at it that way | 03:17 |
| MewRS | nucco: well.... the entire pendrive is not working... may i try "sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/sdb" ? | 03:17 |
| ffm_ | enaner, A terminal command. | 03:17 |
| darkcrab | k thanks. :) | 03:17 |
| mikebot | ffm_: Ah, but those aren't instantly graitfying! (I mean, thanks.. :) ) | 03:17 |
| ffm_ | !terminal | enaner | 03:18 |
| ubotu | enaner: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | 03:18 |
| jstritar | my problems started when it tried installing "lopenofice-org-writer2latex" then a lot of things failed after that | 03:18 |
| osxdude | xyzpaw: no, it just gives you remote command line access. | 03:18 |
| Pelo | darkcrab, be prudent | 03:18 |
| n-iCe | oh I already tried that, Pelo | 03:18 |
| josh04 | nucco: Whatever it is, it's a particularly evil form of computing | 03:18 |
| SeaPhor | josh04, my laptop is wireless and on 7.10, and i have City of heroes up and going now, so i know the wireless is working :-)) (and yes!!! it plays 10x better on linux!) | 03:18 |
| nucco | MewRS: no, try sudo fdisk /dev/sdb then type p and see what it says | 03:18 |
| wv-vlad | people i have a problem after activate compiz nice effects i got problems with firefox, it goes full screen and black windows for moments any suggestion¿ | 03:18 |
| xyzpaw | is it something hackers use | 03:18 |
| tgm4883_laptop | can anyone help me get an external monitor working with the open source radeon driver? | 03:18 |
| ffm_ | jstritar, The problem is when you use a lot of packages unsupported by ubuntu. | 03:18 |
| enaner | osxdude someone told me that i can have KDE desktop on ubuntu and tat i dun need kubuntu for that | 03:18 |
| Pelo | n-iCe, built in or the other kind ? | 03:18 |
| gooody | is there any messenger clients in ubuntu that suports webcam and microphone? | 03:18 |
| josh04 | SeaPhor: What happened :P | 03:18 |
| ffm_ | mikebot, make cheques payable to... | 03:18 |
| Pelo | n-iCe, check the forum for the model www.ubuntuforums.org | 03:18 |
| josh04 | SUGAR | 03:18 |
| osxdude | enaner: I know ou can have KDE in Ubuntu, but I do not know how. | 03:18 |
| jstritar | ffm_: do you know where i can at least see a log of the install? /var/log/apt doesn't have it | 03:18 |
| Nutzebahn | Hi. Does anyone know of any fingerprint scanner software that will work on Ubuntu? | 03:18 |
| Pelo | gooody, pidgin and amsn do I think | 03:19 |
| d33d | I need to fix my Firefox 3.05b flash, for some reason its like screwed up...In order to play any flash I have to click some stupid Circle with an arrow in it, and it sometimes works and sometimes doesnt...any ideas? | 03:19 |
| josh04 | URGENT: Is b44 a wired networking driver? | 03:19 |
| ffm_ | jstritar, Sadly, I don't know. | 03:19 |
| mikebot | ffm_: Haha, touché! | 03:19 |
| MewRS | nucco: could not read /dev/sdb | 03:19 |
| jstritar | ffm_: even so, it shoudl recognize packages that aren't supported and at least warn you | 03:19 |
| darkcrab | yea, I only unchecked the ones like crash reporter. or like bluetooth because my system doesnt have bluetooth. | 03:19 |
| MewRS | nucco: but the pendrive blinked.. | 03:19 |
| SeaPhor | josh04, ? thats the same one i sent b4? | 03:19 |
| Pelo | Nutzebahn, did you check in the repositories ? menu > sytem> admin > synaptic | 03:19 |
| xyzpaw | is ssh for hacking? | 03:19 |
| ffm_ | jstritar, It did, when you first installed them. | 03:19 |
| nucco | MewRS: second time I'm seeing that today, means the drive is probably gone for good | 03:19 |
| slashzul | how do you add gnome desktop on a ubuntu server install? | 03:19 |
| osxdude | no, xyzpaw | 03:19 |
| leo_rockw | xyzpaw: what do you mean by hacking? | 03:19 |
| seriouslycgi | mikebot, theres more channels like #lfd (linux for dummies) ##linux etc so if one is really overloaded try in another chan that what i do | 03:19 |
| ffm_ | mikebot, Seriously, Canonical has paid support, that's how they stay aflote. | 03:19 |
| gravemind | how does mozilla feel about including firefox 3 beta 5 in a production release? | 03:19 |
| ffm_ | !hack | xyzpaw | 03:19 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about hack - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 03:19 |
| lewench | Anyone know why my keyboards number to the right won't work? I have G15 keyboard and the new ubuntu | 03:19 |
| jstritar | ffm_: yeah, well when they don't support the latest graphics cards you have to do that | 03:19 |
| SeaPhor | josh04, what should have changed? i made no changes? | 03:19 |
| MewRS | nucco: =( no chance of ressurect? | 03:19 |
| Pelo | xyzpaw, go to wikipedia.com and search for ssh or secure shell | 03:19 |
| leo_rockw | xyzpaw: hacking is not what you think it is... | 03:20 |
| jstritar | ffm_: they shouldn't pretend like you can upgrade | 03:20 |
| ffm_ | xyzpaw, Well, it can be used by malicious black-hat hackers. | 03:20 |
| Starnestommy | xyzpaw: it's usually used for remote administration of servers | 03:20 |
| xyzpaw | can you use ssh to anonymously torrent | 03:20 |
| ffm_ | jstritar, They don't _pretend_. | 03:20 |
| Peddy | can someone tell me how to bring back window shadows in Hardy? | 03:20 |
| darkcrab | mozilla has always encouraged people to use its test releases rather than its stable releases. | 03:20 |
| nucco | MewRS: if the partitioning software can't access the drive, I can't think of what next to do, sorry | 03:20 |
| leo_rockw | xyzpaw: you can use ssh to control rtorrent, for example | 03:20 |
| slashzul | how do you add gnome desktop on a ubuntu server install? gdm? | 03:20 |
| ffm_ | jstritar, When you install "community supported software" it isn't supported by canonical. | 03:20 |
| gooody | Pelo: pidgin doesn't support voice and videos yet. i'm not sure of the amsn yet. | 03:20 |
| Pelo | xyzpaw, you are thinking of proxy servers , google for tor | 03:20 |
| mikebot | seriouslycgi: Thank you, I wasn't aware. | 03:20 |
| MewRS | nucco: ill try the mkfs on entire drive, so.. | 03:20 |
| artenius | lewench: hit numlock | 03:20 |
| d33d | I need to fix my Firefox 3.05b flash, for some reason its like screwed up...In order to play any flash I have to click some stupid Circle with an arrow in it, and it sometimes works and sometimes doesnt...any ideas? | 03:20 |
| josh04 | SeaPhor: I'm not best sure, to be honest | 03:20 |
| Zaqq | installed heron using wubi ... installed nvidia drivers and some apps .. restarted ... booting halts with a (initramfs) prompt... | 03:20 |
| mikebot | ffm_: Right, but this is the free support channel, correct? | 03:20 |
| Nutzebahn | Pelo, yes, I did. Help? | 03:20 |
| ffm_ | slackd00d, just gnome, or the whole ubuntu desktop thing? | 03:20 |
| MewRS | nucco: if everything is already messed up, there is nothing to lose, right? | 03:20 |
| ffm_ | mikebot, Yes. | 03:20 |
| nucco | MewRS: my verdict though, is that the drive is history. and mkfs on the entire drive won't work either. | 03:20 |
| osxdude | !proxy | 03:20 |
| ubotu | Many Ubuntu IRC channels prohibit access from !proxies such as !TOR and web (Java, etc) gateways due to a high level of abuse. You can however obtain a hostmask cloak: see http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#cloaks | 03:20 |
| jstritar | ffm_: that doesn't mean ubuntu should upgrade without warning you it might break your entire system | 03:20 |
| lewench | artenius, ITS ON! | 03:21 |
| xyzpaw | how do you use ssh to control rtorrent? | 03:21 |
| MewRS | nucco: Kingston R.I.P. | 03:21 |
| w30 | xyzpaw: ssh is a secure version of telnet that can't be intercepted to get keystrokes for login names and passwords (greatly simplified) | 03:21 |
| slashzul | does GDM install add desktop to a server instsall? | 03:21 |
| xrc | you don't use ssh to control torrent | 03:21 |
| leo_rockw | xyzpaw: i'm pretty sure there are many tutorials out there on the internets. i never used rtorrent myself | 03:21 |
| ffm_ | jstritar, Uh, that's implicit in any upgrade. You should always back up data, but especially with system updates. | 03:21 |
| Pelo | Nutzebahn, that's where i look when I want software, you can try google , Ihave no more suggestion but I've seen it mentioned on digg I think , | 03:21 |
| osxdude | Lol, I have the same EXACT type of Kingston memory in the family computer right now | 03:21 |
| jstritar | ffm_: do you know of way of trying to resolve upgrade issues? | 03:21 |
| MewRS | nucco: no way to try to write a disklabel from term? :P | 03:21 |
| ffm_ | xyzpaw, Basically, it is easier for malicious people to hack into you if you use telnet. | 03:21 |
| josh04 | xyzpaw: You ssh in, run screen, open rtorrent, set it up, detach from screen and log out of ssh | 03:21 |
| leo_rockw | xyzpaw: but rtorrent is not anonymous | 03:21 |
| totocool | hi all I`ve just installed KDE 4 but the panew went away and don`t know how to start it | 03:22 |

| lee3008 | anyone know if i will be able to use air snort with madwifi? | 03:22 |
| ffm_ | !helpme > totocool | 03:22 |
| nucco | MewRS: you can do that via an argument to mkfs, but that particular drive is hosed :) | 03:22 |
| josh04 | MewRS: I presume parted can do it, but I don;t know how | 03:22 |
| Pelo | totocool, ask in #kubuntu or #kde | 03:22 |
| leo_rockw | josh04: he's going to ask you what screen is now :-P | 03:22 |
| ffm_ | jstritar, Best way is a fresh install, but what's the broken package? | 03:22 |
| jstritar | ffm_: i don't know b/c i closed the window and there's no log. but after restarting i have no network & the video is messed up | 03:22 |
| bjb1959 | Pelo, your suggestion didn't work. can't find anything in system>admin>users about logoff or shutdown and setting authorizations doesn't work either any more ideas? | 03:22 |
| jstritar | ffm_: a lot of packages failed near the end | 03:22 |

| MewRS | nucco: i'll give the bad news to the pendrive owner... | 03:23 |
| ffm_ | jstritar, Uh, why'd you close the window? The generic fix is "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a" to reconfigure all packages. Try that first. | 03:23 |
| n-iCe | Pelo, oh | 03:23 |
| pd0x | hell all, just upgraded | 03:23 |

| bjb1959 | Pelo, your suggestion didn't work. can't find anything in system>admin>users about logoff or shutdown and setting authorizations doesn't work either any more ideas? | 03:23 |

| josh04 | SeaPhor: I see it | 03:24 |
| ffm_ | ants, That may cause broken packages. Are you in the middle of a dist-upgrade? | 03:24 |
| ants | yes | 03:25 |
| staing | what's a good way to get caught up to speed with ubuntu | 03:25 |
| josh04 | xyzpaw: I only know about it in theory, I've never done it | 03:25 |

| ants | It's only retreaving packs right now | 03:25 |
| TheAceOfHearts | lee3008: He doesn't have the money for that... He barely has money for the HDD... | 03:25 |

| ubotu | cardstroker: Go to "System", "Administration", and "Software Sources" and choose "Other" from the drop down box. Then choose "select best server" and your system will choose the closest mirror to you automatically. | 03:25 |
| SeaPhor | josh04, that's the one that clicking on it opens the other box on the screen, clicking configur on that box opens the other box on the screen | 03:25 |

| mojo | Pelo: xchat-gnome does not use tabs. it is a "clean interface" variant of xchat. thought i'd give it a spin. | 03:27 |
| ffm_ | Darknezz, "sudo aptitude install xmms" | 03:27 |
| nucco | MewRS: that's ok, just tell the owner that their drive is toast! | 03:27 |
| josh04 | SeaPhor: Check "Enable Roaming Mode", then click the two PC's up by the volume meter and click "Connect to other wireless network" | 03:27 |
| lee3008 | aww k thanks | 03:27 |

| ToddEDM | Legendario: i dont think so | 03:47 |
| Dr_willis | oddalot, you may want to try audacious, or bmpx instead. Compiling may take a bit of extra things needed to be installed first | 03:47 |
| oddalot | keep getting errors in a c file, and it appears to be missing some header giles | 03:47 |
| Pelo | Konedima, ok , this is going to be a bit problematic , I donT, supppseyou can access you ubuntu partition from windows ? | 03:47 |

| josh04 | SeaPhor: From what I can see, it looks like the RTL driver doesn't work with WPA, which is a bit weird | 03:55 |
| Pelo | USN1520, not at all , but donT' upgrade online if you can avoid it , upgrade from the alternate instal cd or the dvd and get them in torrent, the servers are taking a big hit | 03:55 |
| Pelo | d4t4min32, yes | 03:55 |
| Jordan_U | fraserdp, There are a few, network-manager is installed by default | 03:55 |

| miggilinme | Yes, the connection with the new driver is horrid | 03:58 |
| gravemind | thinkingfrog: they are added to the kernel as 'modules' somehow | 03:58 |

| === B_166-ER-X is now known as b166erx | ||
| Starnestommy | thinkingfrog: they can usually be compiled as a module then loaded into the kernel without compiling it into the kernel | 03:58 |

| gravemind | thinkingfrog: they can be compiled into the kernel I think, but most ppl don't | 03:59 |

| Pelo | samy, in linux you assume wrong, in linux new means troubleshooting , old means stable and reliable | 03:59 |
| miggilinme | is there any way to get back to the old driver? | 03:59 |

| Jordan_U | thinkingfrog, Most drivers are either installed by default or available as packages, try System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers if you have hardware which requires proprietary drivers | 03:59 |
| thinkingfrog | gravemind: compiled into the kernel = faster | 03:59 |

| josh04 | Bagelon1: It was my fault you crashed, I mucked up one of the commands | 04:01 |
| Pelo | samy, too late for me , save yourself | 04:01 |
| linkinxp | Pelo, i dont know i havent got any updates for 2 days im worried jajajaaja | 04:01 |

| USN1520 | what does lsmod say? | 04:01 |
| Pici | linkinxp: Hardy has been released.... | 04:01 |
| d4t4min32 | miggilinme: what is the "old" driver | 04:01 |
| Starnestommy | Twilt: I believe it's 3 | 04:01 |
| LiraNuna | anyone knows why ubuntu ships with libpng 1.2.15 when the latest version is 1.2.26 ? | 04:02 |
| Twilt | Okay | 04:02 |
| thinkingfrog | Jordan_U: so then, the key is the proper packages and a properly configured xorg.conf file | 04:02 |
| Twilt | good | 04:02 |
| linkinxp | Pici, i know so no any more updates? | 04:02 |
| thinkingfrog | I should read the xorg.conf man page | 04:02 |
| bagelon1 | josh04: I rebooted and now I am back online wiht the computer you mucked as you say, but now I am typing on another computer. Any more help? I have a terminal open | 04:02 |
| Pelo | linkinxp, you have 8.04 RC there aren'T any updates, your on the official release more or less, don'T expecct updates for a couple of weeks , | 04:02 |
| b166erx | beside struggling at the linux 'gurus' whou thought it would be nice to remove XMMS from the repos, i didnt do much since then | 04:02 |
| miggilinme | I don't know, if I understand correctly it's rt2500 | 04:02 |

| miggilinme | but even then, I'm not sure | 04:02 |
| Pelo | LiraNuna, ubuntu ships with stable not bleeding edge | 04:02 |
| arvind_khadri | Twilt, why dont you check that out yourself | 04:02 |
| josh04 | Type dmesg|grep ssb and see if it gets anything | 04:02 |
| miggilinme | doesn't make much sense | 04:02 |
| Starnestommy | demonspork: not even libgtk2.0-dev ? | 04:02 |
| d4t4min32 | thats what im on.. the rt2500, is terriable | 04:02 |
| jsoftw | Anyone know where a basic changelog between 7 and 8 is? | 04:02 |
| miggilinme | and the serialmonkey site is down | 04:02 |
| LiraNuna | Pelo, 1.2.26 was available for quite some time | 04:02 |
| Pici | linkinxp: Not unless theres a security bug or something makes it into backports. We don't have a rolling release like Debian. | 04:02 |
| SeaPhor | josh04, i've done it twice before at least, but who knows and a big THANK YOU! for trying, if you wake up in the middle of the night with a dream answer for my issue,,, go back to sleep, i'll be around tomorrow, (unless they take my CAT5 while i'm sleeping!) | 04:02 |
| thinkingfrog | is Linux like windows, in that sometimes uninstalling and reinstalling drivers can fix problems? | 04:02 |

| bjron | I like how both the upgrade instruction pages (including the one suggested in the topic here) tell you for a cdrom upgrade pop in the alternate cd and follow the instructions. If it doesn't appear to run gksu "sh /cdrom/cdromupgrade", but the disk doesn't automount at /cdrom/, it mounts at /media/Xubuntu 8.04 amd64 (and of course it just hangs if you try to run it there. . I suspect the spaces in the name just like upgrading to gutsy) | 04:12 |
| LainIwakura | Pelo: I still can't get the script to work. Searching for perl returns so many packages, I don't know what I need. | 04:12 |

| bazhang | InGunsWeTrust: neither do I really; just an idea that some have seemed to use in that situation | 04:17 |
| apallo | it uses the proprietary driver in gutsy, butwon't connect properly in hardy | 04:17 |

| Sl4y3r | anyone know how to update from 8.04 alpha 6 to 8.04 lts? | 04:18 |
| ethana2 | M1ke_I : i don't know if that would help | 04:18 |
| bagelong | josh04: any help on answering your question? | 04:18 |
| USN1520_ | b166erx looks like your card is supported by ALSA | 04:18 |
| porta-Farhan | what is the beter method to use with a broadcom wireless card, ndiswrapper or the bxm other thing | 04:18 |
| darkcrab | how could I have possibly gotten firefox 2 then? | 04:18 |
| Pelo | Pingviller_, well right now, anything goign to ~./Trash, should end up in ~/.local/share/Trash/files | 04:18 |
| Paddy_EIRE | darkcrab: if you upgraded from gutsy you will have both oddly.. | 04:18 |
| InGunsWeTrust | bazhang: actually to tell the truth i tried to do it once but it just gave me a headache and eventually didnt work anyway. And it did all kinds of annoying things like break some 64 bit packages that were working before haha | 04:18 |
| USN1520_ | sl4y3r just use update manager | 04:18 |
| mojo | NetEcho: i have had a helluva time getting dual-head working right with hardy and ati's fglrx driver. gave up for now. maybe the 'ati' foss driver would be better for me after all. | 04:18 |
| quadricolour | system -> admin -> update manager | 04:18 |
| LainIwakura | arvind_k: Yes, it says ~/.conky/weather.sh: Permission denied!!! Let me try chmod a+rw weather.sh. Is that right? | 04:18 |
| darkcrab | but I didnt???? | 04:18 |
| Jordan_U | darkcrab, Does FF2 open when you click it in the menu? | 04:18 |
| bazhang | Sl4y3r: just keep updating and you will get there | 04:18 |
| m1ke_l | darkcrab: i think theres a "backport" for ff2 in hardy | 04:18 |
| Konedima | although the first line refers to (hd1,0) or something like that... my unofficial uneducated opinion says theres a chance that could be wrong | 04:18 |
| bagelong | josh04: I am sorry I am very new at this. I do not know the terminal commands very well at all as you can tell. | 04:18 |
| darkcrab | yes it does | 04:18 |
| * mojo is also wondering what happened to emerald in hardy? | 04:18 | |
| Pelo | Konedima, that,s all I had | 04:18 |
| arvind_k | LainIwakura, that should chmod a+x | 04:18 |

| Pelo | doug2266778822, devede | 04:19 |
| b166erx | USN1520_ still trying to make sense out of this bug. yep. And I always worked on Alsa too.. Altough for a few month only 2/3 boot | 04:19 |
| mojo | NetEcho: what kind of set-up you have now? | 04:19 |
| bazhang | mojo perhaps that would be best answered in #compiz-fusion | 04:19 |
| darkcrab | and my start page in ff3 just changed all of a sudden. | 04:19 |
| TelnetManta | Anyone had troubles with Nvidia drivers in Hardy? | 04:19 |
| LainIwakura | arvind_k: Thank you so much. It works now! | 04:19 |
| ethana2 | TelnetManta: yes. | 04:19 |
| josh04 | bagelong: type iwconfig into the terminal | 04:19 |
| seamus7 | Sl4y3r .. you are likely there ... check System Monitor for your version | 04:19 |
| darkcrab | it use to go to one place and now it goes to another ubuntu place. | 04:19 |
| josh04 | it should produe several paragraphs | 04:19 |

| s|k_ | hi, why is trackered eating al of my cpu for no reason? | 04:19 |
| NetEcho | mojo for ubuntu its on my Dell Inspiron which although is a gaming laptop, its my work laptop | 04:19 |
| TelnetManta | ethana2: Any solutions? | 04:19 |
| arvind_k | LainIwakura, thats ok nm | 04:19 |
| USN1520_ | b166erx, the alsa website has instructions for compiling the driver | 04:19 |
| Sl4y3r | isays 8.04 hardy | 04:19 |
| Sl4y3r | will it say alpha if if is | 04:19 |
| TelnetManta | trying to get desktop effects to work with an 8800 card | 04:19 |
| ethana2 | TelnetManta: update | 04:19 |
| bagelong | josh04:lo no wireless extensions. | 04:19 |
| bagelong | eth0 no wireless extensions. | 04:19 |
| mojo | bazhang: maybe if it were a problem with compiz or emerald. i mean, did UBUNTU decide not to ship emerald with compiz on the default setup for some reason? is emerald being deprecated? | 04:19 |
| seamus7 | slk_ it's indexing .. you can turn tracker off or just throttle it down in its preferences | 04:19 |
| josh04 | bagelong: one called lo, one called eth0 and possibly one called wlan0 | 04:19 |
| Pelo | ok , I'm done for tonight , best of luck to everyone, don'T dispair, getting away from MS is hard but it's worth it | 04:19 |
| Konedima | pelo, the first line in the boot thing refers to (hd1,0), which i think could be wrong cause c:\ is the secondary master | 04:20 |
| s|k_ | seamus7: thanks | 04:20 |
| ethana2 | TelnetManta: in other words, not yet | 04:20 |
| josh04 | bagelong: apparently not :P | 04:20 |
| USN1520_ | sl4y3r not sure I understand the ? | 04:20 |
| Pingviller_ | Pelo: well since the rm command is working, that's where they end up.. sudo rm -rf ~/.Trash && ln -s ~/.local/share/Trash/files but how the ln command works... is another issue | 04:20 |
| dredhammer | not as bad as this NetEcho the only problem i had with ATI was getting compiz-fusion to work with the closed drivers | 04:20 |

| mojo | Konedima: remember GRUB numbers disks hd0, hd1, etc... | 04:20 |
| Pelo | Konedima, hd1,0 means the second hdd first partition the numbering in grub starts with 0 | 04:20 |
| Paddy_EIRE | PhilcoBill: you get free cake with it | 04:20 |
| NetEcho | dredhammer the big issue is ATI really doesn't want anything to do with linux drivers and nvidia has always supplied drivers | 04:20 |
| Sl4y3r | sorry | 04:20 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | !ask | edwin | 04:20 |
| ubotu | edwin: 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. :-) | 04:20 |
| b166erx | brb | 04:20 |
| s|k_ | oh trackered is probably doing this because I just checked out a lot of files from a repository | 04:20 |
| Sl4y3r | will the gnome-system-monitor say alpha if it is alpha? | 04:20 |

| NetEcho | dredhammer although the ati drivers are getting better and hopefully both parties will poor more effort into them | 04:21 |
| Konedima | should i try setting it to 0 on the off chance it'll do something? | 04:21 |

| bazhang | Sl4y3r: sounds like you have final judging by the kernel version | 04:21 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | edwin: are u on hardy? | 04:21 |
| NetEcho | Jordan_U thats because intel has brains :P | 04:21 |
| bagelong | josh04: have I worn you out? | 04:21 |
| bazhang | doug2266778822: you might try devede | 04:21 |
| josh04 | bagelong: can you type lshw -C network? don't copy it here, put it on pastebin | 04:21 |
| Pelo | Pingviller_, you should only run that command once, rm -rf ~/.Trash removed your old trash folder, the nst part creates a link from your where you old trash was to where the new trash is , so anything send to the old trash goes t the new one , you donT, need to keep running hat command | 04:21 |
| USN1520_ | sl4y3r no, I believe it should change...but make sure you have installed all available upgrades | 04:21 |
| edwin | ubuntung-pinoy: yes, but it didn't work in gusty either | 04:22 |
| NetEcho | most hardware companies are starting to realise Windows isn't the only viable solution these days | 04:22 |
| josh04 | bagelong: It's getting late, but we're not far off I don't think :P | 04:22 |
| Pelo | cardstroker, no idea, I donT' have usb devices here except for flash drives | 04:22 |
| bagelong | josh04: I am sorry, this is my first time on. How do I use pastbin | 04:22 |
| mojo | bazhang: nm i know it's there just thought it was a decision at some level to not configure it as part of the default install for desktop effects. turning them all on in gutsy would give you emerald, if you didn't check the "use metacity themes" box in GL Desktop settings | 04:22 |
| NetEcho | especialy with the mainstreaming of user friendly linux distros | 04:22 |
| Sl4y3r | ok | 04:22 |
| seamus7 | Sl4y3r it likely just says 8.04 ... you are updated | 04:22 |

| arvind_k | pawan, hi | 04:22 |
| Pingviller_ | Pelo: actually I do.. since it didn't make them to go to the new trash, they still end up in the same place | 04:22 |
| TropicalDude | great, thank you | 04:22 |
| edwin | ubuntung-pinoy: yes, the vista that came preinstalled on this computer | 04:23 |
| dredhammer | yes NetEcho ati has crappy closed source drivers but i was expecting with nvidia things would be better to run into two bugs so far using the nvidia drivers is a bit unsettling | 04:23 |
| VousDeux | oh, haha...I guess this is the right channel | 04:23 |
| enaner | y does the screen go black when i fullscreen something? | 04:23 |
| NetEcho | dredhammer the ones that come with Hardy? | 04:23 |
| mojo | bazhang: turning them all on to max-bling in ubuntu's Appearance control panel in hardy does not bring emerald with it. just wondered if there was a reason behind that decision, like maybe there is another direction planned. | 04:23 |
| enaner | and why are my graphics messing up? | 04:23 |
| carlosdias | join #planeta-ubuntu-brasil | 04:23 |

| Sl4y3r | ive never had any probs with the graphics | 04:23 |
| mojo | bazhang: but it is not of any pressing concern. just being chatty w/my thoughts | 04:23 |
| Sl4y3r | ;s | 04:23 |
| bazhang | mojo the compiz channel could likely clear that up | 04:23 |

| InGunsWeTrust | Has anybody successfully installed zsnes on 64 bit hardy? | 04:28 |
| USN1520_ | Starnestommy thanks | 04:28 |
| code_zombie | I just upgraded to 8.04, and it seems that the mouse has some sort of "dwell" click enabled where holding down the button for more than a split second causes a double click. Anybody know how to turn this off? | 04:28 |
| oddalot | saltedlight, that isn't true, i can use firefox and mp3 player at same time | 04:28 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | !sound | saltedlight | 04:28 |
| ubotu | saltedlight: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 04:28 |
| ruewan | more weirdness | 04:29 |
| josh04 | bagelong: okay, almost there. Can you pastebin again for me the output from "lspci -n" and "lspci -v" | 04:29 |
| bazhang | oddalot: audacious is the closest to that; there is also xmms2 | 04:29 |
| oddalot | rhythm box hmmm let me check | 04:29 |
| oddalot | xmms2 is command line bleh | 04:29 |
| ruewan | why i go to System > Administration > Users and Groups my add user button is greyed out | 04:29 |
| Boohbah | oddalot: amarok is nice if you don't mind kde libs | 04:29 |
| Gokee2_Office | oin #crossove | 04:29 |
| edwin | enaner: i can't find the package (maybe it's removed from hardy?), but i seem to remember that if you try and enable advanced desktop settings, it'll prompt you with an option to install the drivers | 04:29 |
| TropicalDude | ok, so because I dont really know how to update to generic kernel and my system is kinda messy Im going to make a fresh install, so my new question is, should I HAVE to use 64bit to have dual core or the generic hardy x86 will work fine? | 04:29 |
| oddalot | no, i like xmms because it's like oldschool winamp, i am only use to that | 04:29 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | ruewan: try unlock | 04:29 |
| saltedlight | thanks ubuntung-pinoy, i'l check these... | 04:29 |
| InGunsWeTrust | ruewan: if you are using 8.04 try unlock | 04:30 |
| Boohbah | oddalot: yeah but amarok lets you search huge collections much faster | 04:30 |
| Bubble_tea | my god the price for buying milk are 4$ | 04:30 |
| ruewan | :) | 04:30 |
| ruewan | ok that worked | 04:30 |
| oddalot | boobah, i don't have any huge collections | 04:30 |
| bazhang | TropicalDude: no need; the generic 32bit is fine; do a search in synaptic | 04:30 |
| ruewan | thanks | 04:30 |
| bagelong | josh04: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m7bbbeacd | 04:30 |
| InGunsWeTrust | amarok is awesome! i love the contextual info | 04:30 |

| NetEcho | Wubi is a virtual linux environment for windows right? | 04:30 |
| ripps | Does anybody here know how I can install the 2.6.25 kernel in Hardy, I know I can compile it, but I'd prefer a repository so I can keep up with updates. | 04:30 |
| Assid | however.. it does eat up a bit more ram | 04:30 |

| Jordan_U | NetEcho, No, it's a real dual boot, it just uses grub / ntldr magic to boot from a file on your windows partition | 04:31 |
| oddalot | i am running 1.5 ghz box with 1 gig ram, i need all the speed i can spare | 04:31 |
| darkcrab | is anyone else using hardy heron besides me? | 04:31 |
| NetEcho | bazhang what I mean is it installs under windows' partition and doesn't actually install to the MBR right? | 04:31 |
| ruewan | i am | 04:31 |

| InGunsWeTrust | Has anybody successfully installed zsnes on 64 bit hardy? | 04:32 |
| edwin | ubuntung-pinoy: that site was no help, but thanks anyways. | 04:32 |
| Assid | oddalot: yeah i know the feeling | 04:32 |
| darkcrab | I mean, your applications list? | 04:32 |
| Paddy_EIRE | darkcrab: there is 1422 users in this room :) | 04:32 |
| NetEcho | Jordan_U so basicaly it's installed under windows but it forces ntldr to not load the windows kernel when you boot that partition? | 04:32 |
| josh04 | bagelong: "lspci -n", sorry. Don't worry, it should work in a few more steps :P | 04:32 |
| Assid | oddalot: my lappy is a 1.4 centrino | 04:32 |
| bazhang | NetEcho: that sounds about right (not sure of the *exact* details) but not a VM | 04:32 |
| ruewan | i have it in synaptic | 04:32 |
| darkcrab | I just need to know if it is installed by default. | 04:32 |
| TropicalDude | bazhang: what should I look in synaptyc? generic kernel ? | 04:32 |
| oddalot | i sold my good computer to build electronics, and then i blew them all up by accident :/ | 04:32 |
| NetEcho | bazhang cool, Only reason I didn't switch this system over is because I do heavy gaming | 04:32 |
| Paddy_EIRE | darkcrab: try and keep your questions as specific and with as much information as possible | 04:32 |
| ruewan | i just installed it cause firefox 3 was giving me problems | 04:32 |

| Assid | gaspipe1: considering 7.10 is outdated.. 8.04 now | 04:33 |
| seamus7 | Arno: have you looked for Advanced Desktop Effects in the System/Preferences menu? | 04:33 |
| Jordan_U | NetEcho, Basically, but to be clear it still allows you to choose to load NT / boot windows at boot | 04:33 |
| gaspipe1 | Assid: ok... just wanted to make sure | 04:33 |

| LogicalDash | Arno, just run it with Alt+F2 then | 04:34 |
| NetEcho | Jordan_U yea what I thought... thats actually pretty handy | 04:34 |
| TropicalDude | Assid: well Im considering what's best for my dual core works fine, no problem doing a fresh install actually, and I had gutsy and then update maybe I have some problems with the update, so Im wondering the best path | 04:34 |
| ruewan | i noticed that i can use my finger print reader to log more than once now | 04:34 |
| bazhang | Assid: gaspipe1 gutsy is still supported as is hardy (7.10 is not outdated) | 04:34 |
| seamus7 | Arno: that's it then | 04:34 |
| bagelong | josh04: http://ubuntu.pastebin.com/m17d9dd3f | 04:34 |
| Arno | LogicalDash, ok, thanks :) | 04:34 |
| darkcrab | Is there no-one who can tell me if firefox 2 is installed by default alongside firefox 3 in hardy heron?? | 04:34 |
| Alex_Sc2e | It's not all that noticeable a difference since I've updated, although it is a bit faster | 04:34 |
| bjron | anyone know what is responsible for automounting a cd when you put it in the drive? | 04:34 |
| Arno | thanks seamus7 | 04:34 |
| NetEcho | Jordan_U can you switch operating systems without completely rebooting? | 04:34 |
| Jordan_U | NetEcho, No | 04:34 |
| NetEcho | ok | 04:34 |
| NetEcho | would be nice but not a big issue | 04:34 |
| LogicalDash | Arno, no prob | 04:34 |
| m2geek | Hello Room :) | 04:34 |
| netyire | jmknsd_: bash: /proc/clear: No such file or directory | 04:35 |
| mophead | darkcrab: it might be, but if not, it's easy to install from the applications --> add/remove | 04:35 |
| gaspipe1 | Assid: i installed Mediabuntu on 7.10 now with the upgrade do i need to re-install it? | 04:35 |
| ruewan | i like that i can save my password for mounting my windows partition as well | 04:35 |
| Assid | TropicalDude: personally if you have a decent amt of ram.. and want to make use of a dual core.. i'd go with 64bit | 04:35 |
| Assid | gaspipe1: nah.. just update it via synaptic | 04:35 |
| leo_rockw | gaspipe1: you can add medibuntu repos for hardy | 04:35 |
| gaspipe1 | Assid: ok | 04:35 |
| darkcrab | mophead my problem is it is installed in my applications and I dont remember it being there, and I am concerned. | 04:35 |
| leo_rockw | gaspipe1: and then you can upgrade from synaptic | 04:35 |
| seamus7 | darkcrab ... it is not ... did you upgrade? maybe you had installed FF2 in a separate location? | 04:35 |
| InGunsWeTrust | TropicalDude: if you wanna use zsnes dont do 64 bit! AH! | 04:35 |
| Arno | can someone please tell me how to add Shadows behind windows in Compiz? | 04:35 |
| jmknsd_ | netyire: cat /proc/cpuinfo | 04:35 |
| jmknsd_ | my bad | 04:35 |
| Assid | zsnes ? | 04:35 |
| Alex_Sc2e | I would not go with 64 Bit: Programs have major issues, also many bugs come up. I had it on my other PC, and it was horribel | 04:35 |
| darkcrab | No seamus I did not upgrade. | 04:35 |
| gaspipe1 | leo_rockw: so i wud have to reinstall it? | 04:35 |
| TropicalDude | Assid: I got 3GB ram | 04:36 |
| darkcrab | This is a fresh install | 04:36 |
| Assid | people play snes roms yet? | 04:36 |
| Jordan_U | darkcrab, Do you have the firefox-2 package installed? | 04:36 |
| bazhang | TropicalDude: no real need for 64 bit at this point; very few apps and many things can be more work to get going | 04:36 |
| darkcrab | Jordan_1 yes , but I did not install it, thats the problem | 04:36 |
| tuchki | hi. someone have a ati radeon express 200 installed correctly? | 04:36 |
| leo_rockw | gaspipe1: if it's not a fresh install then no. you just need to make sure you have the hardy repos for it so you can update when needed | 04:36 |
| Wyzard | What is the "nvidia_new" driver? How's it different from the regular "nvidia" driver? | 04:36 |
| m2geek | tuchki nope, i have a 9600 pro that works :) | 04:36 |
| seamus7 | darkcrab where do you see FF2? how did you become aware of it being on your fresh install of Hardy? | 04:36 |
| mophead | Arno: I'm sure it wouldn't be too hard to find just by googling "compiz" | 04:36 |
| netyire | jmknsd_: thanks! any clue as to how to determine if its a prescott, northwood, etc from the make and stepping though? | 04:36 |
| enaner | how do i enable proprietary drivers | 04:36 |
| gaspipe1 | leo_rockw: i upgraded so now it wasn't a fresh install | 04:36 |
| mophead | http://www.google.com/search?q=compiz&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=com.ubuntu:en-US:unofficial&client=firefox-a | 04:36 |
| darkcrab | It showed up in my applications list seamus7 | 04:36 |
| InGunsWeTrust | TropicalDude: typically with 64 bit you get about 15% better CPU performance but use about 15% more RAM | 04:36 |
| tuchki | mine is not workin good | 04:37 |
| tuchki | i cant change resolution | 04:37 |
| Assid | Alex_Sc2e: what kinda issues? | 04:37 |
| netyire | enaner: system -> administration -> hardware drivers | 04:37 |
| bazhang | !binarydrivers | enaner | 04:37 |
| ubotu | enaner: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 04:37 |
| Jordan_U | darkcrab, You can safely remove it if you want to, one possability I can think of is that you installed a package containing a firefox plugin which depends on FF2 | 04:37 |
| gaspipe1 | leo_rockw: how do i check to make sure i have the repos? | 04:37 |
| cvd-pr | any now how i adjust the brigthness in VLC? | 04:37 |
| josh04 | bagelong: type "sudo ndiswrapper -a 14e4:4315 bcmwl5" | 04:37 |
| m2geek | are proprietary drivers much point? I tried em once and it totally screwed things up for me. | 04:37 |
| leo_rockw | gaspipe1: do you know what /etc/apt/sources.list is? | 04:37 |
| TropicalDude | bazhang: I think because Im a n00b I will put 64bit on stand by, so now I have to 1) fresh install 2) Figure out to make work dual core. | 04:37 |
| darkcrab | OK jordan_1, I will check that now. | 04:37 |
| seamus7 | darkcrab: how do you know it's FF2? | 04:37 |
| darkcrab | It says firefox 2 seamus 7 | 04:37 |
| bazhang | TropicalDude: why re-install? | 04:37 |
| jmknsd_ | netyire: nope | 04:38 |
| Wyzard | TropicalDude: You shouldn't need to do anything for your dual-core to work | 04:38 |
| agmishra | How do I add myself for sharing allowed user in hardy? | 04:38 |
| Assid | InGunsWeTrust: the 32bit binaries dont work on 64bit for zsnes? | 04:38 |
| bagelong | josh04: This is safe _only_ if driver bcmwl5 is meant for chip in device 14E4:4315 | 04:38 |
| gaspipe1 | leo_rockw: ahh i think so... is that the list where it shows ubuntu where to find updates? | 04:38 |
| seamus7 | darkcrab is FF3 there as well? | 04:38 |
| bazhang | Wyzard: he has the 386 (not generic ) kernel | 04:38 |
| josh04 | bagelong: it is | 04:38 |
| Wyzard | ah | 04:38 |
| Dr_willis | TropicalDude, check what kernel you are running also. I noticed on one machne i somehow had the 386 kernel installed when i needed the -generic kernel. | 04:38 |
| TropicalDude | bazhang: because I cant see dual activity CPU | 04:38 |
| leo_rockw | gaspipe1: yup either check that file or the medibuntu file in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ | 04:38 |
| Assid | Wyzard: not about makin it work.. but just performs better | 04:38 |
| leo_rockw | gaspipe1: if it says gutsy, change it to hardy | 04:38 |
| Gun_Smoke | What's the name of package to add the temp sensors to the panel? | 04:38 |
| bagelong | josh04: Looks like we are close. Now what? | 04:38 |
| gaspipe1 | leo_rockw: ok | 04:38 |
| bazhang | TropicalDude: install the generic kernel then | 04:38 |
| agmishra | when I want to share something, the dialog says I don't have permission to share | 04:38 |
| InGunsWeTrust | assid: nope i found a 32 bit deb and did --force-architecture on it but it doesnt work | 04:39 |
| josh04 | bagelong: "ndiswrapper -l" | 04:39 |
| leo_rockw | gaspipe1: then if any update is available you'll just get it through synaptic | 04:39 |
| bjron | lol, good thing I DL the xubuntu alt install disk - probably not a good plan to upgrade my ubuntu install from that :p | 04:39 |
| TropicalDude | bazhang: how :)? from synaptic? | 04:39 |
| Assid | InGunsWeTrust: strange.. technically 32 bit binaries should work on it | 04:39 |
| LoLeN_Original | i had downloaded some packages (a LOT) from another computer, and then burnt them to a cd having used AptonCD; then i installed them at another system; and now Synaptic tells me that all of them are autoremovable. How can i fix it so that they are shown just installed? | 04:39 |
| bazhang | TropicalDude: that would be best choice yes--be sure it is the 24 and not the 22 however (if this is an upgrade and not a fresh install) | 04:40 |
| InGunsWeTrust | assid: i know! that is why this problem is particularly annoying. zsnes is the only program that I want that i cant use! otherwise I love hardy (as I have loved every upgrade of ubuntu) | 04:40 |
| bazhang | LoLeN_Original: this is gutsy or hardy | 04:40 |
| bagelong | josh04: "driver installed" device (14E4:4315 present). | 04:40 |
| gaspipe1 | leo_rockw: what is the cmd to get the list? | 04:40 |
| LoLeN_Original | bazhung: hardy :D :D | 04:40 |
| josh04 | bagelong: "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper" | 04:40 |
| Jordan_U | LoLeN_Original, I believe if you run "sudo apt-get install <list of packages>" they will no longer be considered "orphaned" packages | 04:40 |
| darkcrab | seamus7 I can use firefox2 and firefox3 as seperate browsers. | 04:40 |
| Assid | InGunsWeTrust: you filed a bug in launchpad? | 04:41 |
| bazhang | LoLeN_Original: and the aptoncd was from a gutsy system? | 04:41 |
| LoLeN_Original | bazhang: nop, hardy too | 04:41 |
| darkcrab | Jordan, there is nothing there to indicate that I installed a firefox2 plugin. | 04:41 |
| leo_rockw | gaspipe1: sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list | 04:41 |
| bagelong | josh04: Nothing happend | 04:41 |
| swilky | hey all dose any one know where i can get a GOOD sorce list that WORKS for australian sources | 04:41 |
| seamus7 | did you add anything at all to Hardy Heron since you did your fresh install ... anything additional? | 04:41 |
| leo_rockw | gaspipe1: but depending on how you got the repos it might be in a different file | 04:41 |
| tuchki | someone have problems in hardy? | 04:41 |
| Geoffrey2 | is there a Heron specific set of instructions for getting wireless up and running? | 04:41 |
| bazhang | swilky: check in synaptic for the mirrors you want | 04:41 |
| josh04 | bagelong: pastebin dmesg? | 04:41 |
| cardstroker | I start in gui mode now, however, system hangs on "Running local boot scripts ... [ok] | 04:41 |
| osmosis_ | tuchki: here? naahh | 04:41 |
| neon | ok i have an ASUS lapto with the light sensor and the screen looks like crap ubtil ichange this file, everytime i reboot i have to do change the file /sys/devices/platform/asus-laptop/ls_switch from 1 to 0 but it will not stay after reboot how can i make it stay | 04:41 |
| darkcrab | just flash, and java, and thats about it. | 04:41 |
| InGunsWeTrust | assid: nope, cuz it isnt a bug, there have been seperate 32 and 64 bit packages for zsnes since 6.10 I figured there was just something about the program that made it had to be specially compiled | 04:42 |
| darkcrab | a gdm theme | 04:42 |
| swilky | hey all dose any one know where i can get a GOOD sorce list that WORKS for australian sources | 04:42 |
| TropicalDude | bazhang: I have now 2.6.24-16-386, And how do I install the one you recommend? | 04:42 |
| bazhang | swilky: I just gave you an answer | 04:42 |
| LoLeN_Original | bazhang: are you looking at it? | 04:42 |
| Assid | InGunsWeTrust: so that would make it a bug.. if its working in the past versions and now doesnt | 04:42 |
| darkcrab | oh and some pidgin guifications | 04:42 |
| swilky | oh that you Xd | 04:42 |
| swilky | XD | 04:42 |
| seamus7 | darkcrab did you do a fresh install but keep your home folder from a previous installation separate in its own partition? | 04:42 |
| InGunsWeTrust | assid; good point | 04:42 |
| darkcrab | no seamus7, this is an absolute default fresh install. | 04:43 |
| gaspipe1 | leo_rockw: mine says Hardy when i did that cmd | 04:43 |
| Jordan_U | swilky, Use System -> Administration -> Software Sources, it has a feature to automatically find the fastest repo for you | 04:43 |
| Assid | InGunsWeTrust: file a bug | 04:43 |
| bazhang | TropicalDude: open up synaptic and search for generic and then choose the correct kernel to install | 04:43 |
| cardstroker | system hangs on boot up "Running local boot scripts..., any ideas? | 04:43 |
| agmishra | How do I add myself for sharing allowed user in hardy? | 04:43 |
| leo_rockw | gaspipe1: the medibuntu line says hardy? then you're good | 04:43 |
| Twilt | The OS-selection menu on a Wubi dual-boot machine is just a little over 12 seconds. How can I change it to about 3 seconds? | 04:43 |
| bagelong | josh04: wouldn't fit in one terminal screen. any way to refine it? | 04:43 |
| bazhang | LoLeN_Original: sorry missed the meaning of your question--looking at what thanks | 04:43 |
| gaspipe1 | leo_rockw: i mean Gutsy | 04:43 |
| josh04 | only neeed the bottom bit | 04:43 |

| Praboy | Hi. i'm using Ubuntu 8.04. I dont have sound. My motherboard is: Asus M3A. The chip is: Realtek ALC883. | 04:44 |
| InGunsWeTrust | assid: the way I got it before was from a special repo. is there a way I can download a package from a repo even if the repo is meant for another distro. If I can get ahold of the 64 bit package I bet it'd install | 04:44 |

| Wyzard | jsoftw: logging into an entire desktop session as root is a bad idea because that's a lot of code that isn't intended to be run with root privileges, and might be exploitable | 05:03 |
| dmsuperman | Are the repos so thrashed that I can't even install normal packages? For some reason any package I try to install it says it can't find it :s | 05:03 |
| Darknezz | seamus7: thanks :) | 05:03 |
| jsoftw | Wyzard: im not suggesting logging in for a desktop session as root. | 05:03 |
| Karshin | There is another big problem Im having with ubuntu, is trying to connect to internet using my dial up connection (Ubuntu 7.10 - 64 bits) I can´t connect at all... I set up the username, phone number and password. I readed the ubuntu oficial documentation and I got a funny answer: | 05:03 |
| Karshin | Most dialup modems are not supported by Ubuntu, but drivers can be found that will enable the use of such modems. First you need to identify what chipset your dialup modem is using: | 05:03 |
| Karshin | wget -c http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/scanModem.gz | 05:03 |
| leo_rockw | Ooglez: this might help you: http://leorockway.wordpress.com/2008/04/25/0c000-network-controller-broadcom-corporation-bcm94311mcg-wlan-mini-pci-rev-01-for-hardy-heron/ | 05:03 |

| bazhang | !ask | killerkiller | 05:04 |
| ubotu | killerkiller: 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. :-) | 05:04 |
| Wyzard | jsoftw: working in a root shell is OK if you know what you're doing, of course | 05:04 |
| jsoftw | regis: yes and so can the user. | 05:04 |
| roocraig | can anyone help me resolve a startup issue? | 05:04 |

| B_166-ER-X | oh, Its either Hardy that still should be in Alpha Release, or 'me' but its a fresh install. and almost everything is goin haywire. I dont have any sound, A black screen on 1 on 2 reboot (besides of the Gdm login screen) ect..ect. I need serious help (mostly with these 2 problems) I'm with Ubuntu since Hoary, and i never seen it this buggy. :( | 05:04 |
| dmsuperman | bazhang, Do you know where else I might be able to get KDar from then? | 05:04 |
| Luckrider | does anyone here have the beta still, can anyone help me upgrade from the stupid beta to the now released version, I have been waiting all day for the update, and still none, BTW, I am in Eastern US in case people were wondering what server i was on | 05:04 |
| killerkiller | my appearance settings are messed up. i can't change my background and it freezes. | 05:04 |
| Vlet | gapagos: run then from a terminal like: ./somebin.bin | 05:04 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | Jordan_U: It was set for Servers for Philippines; will changing it to Indonesia be better, coz my fabulous country doesn't have its own | 05:04 |
| Luckrider | any help is appreciated | 05:04 |
| gapagos | Vlet thank you! | 05:04 |
| regis | jsoftw: the user can't modprobe | 05:04 |
| josh04 | bagelong, do you want to just call it a day? | 05:04 |
| killerkiller | the appearance settings dont work. | 05:04 |
| jsoftw | regis: so? | 05:04 |
| seamus7 | Luckrider: you are likely already in the final release .. | 05:04 |
| bazhang | dmsuperman: best to install from repos; if you *must* have it this second you might check at getdeb.net | 05:04 |
| bagelong | josh04: sure. What are my options from here do you think? | 05:04 |
| Scunizi | I just installed server and on top xubuntu-desktop. I've got wired and wireless interfaces installed. Wired works. Wireless (Atheros AR5212/5213) isn't recognized or listed under network but shows up when with lspci in terminal.. how do I activate it | 05:05 |
| Vlet | gapagos: oh, you'll probably have to do this first: chmod +x somebin.bin | 05:05 |
| jsoftw | regis: if the user eve sudo's, then there you go, potential for problems right there. | 05:05 |
| Luckrider | is there a way to check seamus7? | 05:05 |
| jsoftw | Even normal linux exploits. | 05:05 |
| regis | jsoftw: ok | 05:05 |

| === enaner is now known as SimplePlan | ||
| Starnestommy | jsoftw: sudo logs things, unlike a direct login as root | 05:05 |
| regis | Wyzard: so what should i do? | 05:05 |
| seamus7 | Luckrider have you been getting updates on a daily basis ever since you installed the Beta? you can check System Monitor and it should say 8.04 | 05:05 |
| bazhang | JPSmon: that is not the way wubi works | 05:05 |
| jsoftw | *sigh* | 05:05 |
| killerkiller | can someone help me with my appearance settings. | 05:05 |
| karllenz | How come my awn manager keeps failing? | 05:05 |
| === co_macho is now known as fatur | ||
| jsoftw | Look nevermind. You guys can hug your sudo | 05:05 |
| josh04 | bagelong: You just need to get ndiswrapper working, which shouldn't be too hard. It's either the windows driver we've used or the ssb driver interfering, though i'm leaning towards the former | 05:06 |
| Luckrider | seamus7, yes I have | 05:06 |
| SimplePlan | when i try to install limewire it says "Only one software management tool is allowed to run at the same time" i dont think im runnin ne thing else ... what shud i do now?? | 05:06 |
| F3d0rA | What is the command to mount a system in repair mode? mount /mnt/sysroot? | 05:06 |
| JPSmon | lol i know bazhang its a joke | 05:06 |
| neil_d | JPSmon: that sounds an odd thing to do. | 05:06 |
| F3d0rA | something of that nature? | 05:06 |
| Vlet | killerkiller: perhaps your video card is not supported by compiz? | 05:06 |
| josh04 | bagelong: but i'm too tired to make heads or tails of it atm | 05:06 |
| Skuller | bazhang: which plugin? | 05:06 |

| roocraig | anyone here help me with startup problem--i am a newbie and have trouble starting up ubuntu | 05:06 |
| bazhang | jsoftw: you may be comfortable with another distro if you love root so much; the 'ubuntu way' is sudo not root thanks | 05:06 |
| Flannel | SimplePlan: Are you running update-manager, or apt-get or Synaptic? | 05:06 |
| dmsuperman | bazhang, Yeah, I was hoping to backup my harddrive overnight. It doesn't have it, and kdar.sourceforge.net won't load. Do you have any particular suggestions for full disc backup? I just need to backup /, minus a few dirs, and have it not follow symlinks to different filesystems | 05:06 |
| Vlet | roocraig: specific questions are better | 05:06 |
| seamus7 | Luckrider; then you have been updating to the new release bit by bit everytime you had an update ... so there was no big update for you yesterday ... you had already arrived at the final | 05:06 |
| SimplePlan | flannel i dun think so ... how do i find out | 05:06 |
| pawan | hi | 05:06 |
| pawan | how to install hardy | 05:07 |
| bagelong | josh04: thanks so much. Have a great night's sleep. I'll see you bright and early.:P | 05:07 |
| Flannel | SimplePlan: Do you have any other windows open? | 05:07 |
| neil_d | jamiejackson: is there an '/etc/rc.local' file | 05:07 |
| Luckrider | ok, I thought so, just wanted to check seamus7, thanks | 05:07 |
| SimplePlan | nope flannel | 05:07 |
| Vlet | !install | pawan | 05:07 |
| Jordan_U | ubuntung-pinoy, Whatever the "select best server" feature gives you is the best you are going to get ( for now, other servers may be faster once the rush to upgrade to Hardy dies down ) | 05:07 |
| ubotu | pawan: Ubuntu can be installed in a lot of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall. Don't want to use a CD? Try http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate | 05:07 |
| jsoftw | bazhang: thanks for what? Im happy using ubuntu, and su - to root all the time. There are no problems. | 05:07 |
| B_166-ER-X | !sound | 05:07 |
| ubotu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 05:07 |

| josh04 | bagelong: night :P | 05:07 |
| jamiejackson | no, neil_d , this is a fresh install, and it's not there | 05:07 |
| Karshin | I still think vista´s UMC its a pain in the ass, Linux´s password system is even harder. | 05:07 |
| jsoftw | bazhang: and please, ubuntu is a distro. People can use it how the hell they like | 05:07 |
| dmsuperman | bazhang, alright, thanks :D | 05:07 |
| seamus7 | karllenz how did you install AWN? which repository? | 05:07 |
| pawan | i upgraded to hardy but still it is showing gutsy | 05:07 |
| Luckrider | seamus7 when I do sudo apt-get upgrade, it says zero uninstalled, zero upgraded, zero installed | 05:07 |
| Flannel | Karshin: What's so hard about knowing your password? | 05:07 |
| tseug | hi, i'm having trouble opening my Home folder. when i click on Home icon, all my desktop items disappear, and home folder doesn't show up. i can open other folders, but not home folder. i should also mention i've had some trouble upgrading to Hardy Heron as well. | 05:08 |
| karllenz | i just typed it in add remove | 05:08 |
| Luckrider | so, I think it is up to date, thanks seamus7 | 05:08 |
| SimplePlan | flannel any solution? | 05:08 |
| seamus7 | Luckrider that's because you have all the updates and upgrades at this very moment | 05:08 |
| Luckrider | yup | 05:08 |
| jsoftw | bazhang: what you are pushing is a cushion on all sharp edges approach | 05:08 |
| Vlet | Luckrider: apt-get upgrade only updates installed packages | 05:08 |
| Makgyver | boy I really wish I could get Ubuntu onto my PowerMac :( | 05:08 |
| regis | anyone? how do i install modules into the config files that are in /lib/modules/2.6.24-16-generic | 05:08 |
| Karshin | flannel: isn´t about knowing my password, is about having to write it each time I want to do something | 05:08 |
| seamus7 | when more are available you'll get a notification in the notification area | 05:08 |
| eaglestar83 | what is simple firewall to use in ubuntu | 05:08 |
| Luckrider | oh, thanks Vlet | 05:08 |

| Makgyver | going to take a hammer to it soon | 05:08 |
| ubotu | Makgyver: PowerPC. Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ | 05:08 |

| Makgyver | bazhang, I would, but I cant boot the CD | 05:09 |
| bazhang | eaglestar83: iptables frontend would be firestarter | 05:09 |

| eaglestar83 | thanks | 05:09 |
| Vlet | gapagos: sounds good | 05:09 |
| Flannel | Karshin: its only when you want to do something administrative. Which, may seem like a lot right now, but once you've had your OS for a month or so, you'll hardly ever. | 05:09 |
| SimplePlan | when i try to install limewire it says "Only one software management tool is allowed to run at the same time" i dont think im runnin ne thing else ... what shud i do now?? | 05:09 |

| Vlet | mndar: easy, put one arm above the other, then loop | 05:10 |
| bazhang | roocraig: more info please | 05:10 |
| karllenz | seamus7: how do i do that? | 05:10 |
| Karshin | I wonder. by any chance there might be a script, or a program which would automatically set up the password each time its requiered? | 05:10 |

| dmsuperman | bazhang, Just a quick question: If I use "dd if=/dev/hda1 of=/home/hda1.bin" to back it up will that follow symlinks? Or will it just back up the symlink as the file itself? | 05:11 |
| ms_ | j | 05:11 |

| bazhang | keycool1: open up the terminal (alt-f2 gnome-terminal ) and type ifconfig there | 05:20 |
| corban | is there any reason why ubuntu stops loading after 'loading local scripts' | 05:20 |
| Dr_Link | Nikonlappy, that's all i know | 05:20 |
| Shadow420 | I decided to do away with gutsy | 05:20 |

| neil_d | jamiejackson: have you the file '/etc/inittab' ? | 05:20 |
| FloodBot2 | JPSmon: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 05:20 |
| MrRoboto | Dr_Link: You can cancel the beep in Preferences -> sound | 05:20 |
| ermac0 | keycool1, ifconfig eth0 | 05:20 |
| pawan | the add new user option is disabled | 05:20 |
| Nikonlappy | TWP-SirStaal: ps aux | 05:20 |

| neil_d | jamiejackson: ok, I don't know what to do from here. have you a '/etc/init.d' directory | 05:22 |
| Bassoon | The default one. | 05:22 |
| chicobo329 | I have a beta of Hardy but it won't update to the final version through the update manager because it keeps saying it's up to date. Is it possible to upgrade through another means? | 05:22 |
| JPSmon | bazhang E: Broken Packages | 05:22 |
| Bassoon | I double-clicked it. | 05:22 |
| pawan | where to add the new user | 05:22 |
| pawan | root or pawan | 05:22 |
| jamiejackson | haha, yeah, neil_d | 05:22 |

| jaffarkelshac | shally87, stop saying, help me, help me just ask your question all in one go with as much information as possible describing the problem | 05:23 |
| CaptainMorgan | slaytanic, 6.1 was supposed to be out today... I think it may be pushed to next week.. would Add/Remove also update this ? | 05:23 |
| cvd-pr | chicobo329, if is uptodate then is uptodate | 05:23 |

| karllenz | i need this repository and i cant put it into the apt line http://ppa.launchpad.net/ipod-touch/ubuntu/dists/hardy/main/binary-i386/ | 05:23 |
| Bassoon | Zelta, Yes. | 05:23 |
| Zelta | Bassoon: Why not just upgrade regularly? | 05:24 |
| Makgyver | hey, there is a clue for me, if I burn my ISO in Windows for the PowerPC will it fail? should I use Mac OS to burn the CD? | 05:24 |
| slaytanic | CaptainMorgan: Probably not. | 05:24 |
| karllenz | its for ipod convienence | 05:24 |
| bazhang | shally87: you said it was successful but you cannot get into it? you know that has no desktop right? | 05:24 |
| shally87 | bazhang: i dont really sure what the kernel edition are.. i'm new in this | 05:24 |
| Bassoon | Zelta, I figured that I needed it for later. | 05:24 |
| Bassoon | Also, I didn't have the time? | 05:24 |

| Jiggah | anyone got a solution for the "no root file system is defined" when installing from wubi | 05:24 |
| Zelta | Bassoon: Time? It is a lot faster to upgrade regularly than to reinstall / upgrade from a CD | 05:24 |
| cvd-pr | check in system-monitor chicobo329 | 05:24 |
| neil_d | jamiejackson: ok, I am feeling my way here. cd to it, and have a look at the file names, these are the scripts that start different things at init time. | 05:24 |
| Zelta | And you need the alt. CD to do it, I think | 05:24 |
| Bassoon | Huh. | 05:24 |
| chicobo329 | gotcha | 05:24 |
| cvd-pr | system | 05:25 |
| Bassoon | Zelta, I'll try that soon. | 05:25 |
| Oleg_ | what's the difference between kubuntu-8.04-desktop-amd64.iso and kubuntu-8.04-alternate-amd64.iso? | 05:25 |

| shally87 | !repeat | 05:25 |
| ubotu | Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience | 05:25 |
| jamiejackson | neil_d: someone told me these were for services (implying services *only*), is that not true? | 05:25 |
| chicobo329 | it says Release 8.04 (hardy) | 05:25 |
| Nikonlappy | pawan: you log out.. then log back in with the new username | 05:25 |
| MrRoboto | I have an external drive that always mounted .... now for some reason it just wont mount ... it just appears in Computer as USB Drive ... any ideas to mount it ??? | 05:25 |
| bazhang | shally87: youknow the server has no gui right? | 05:25 |
| Bassoon | I'm also have problems getting Ubuntu to sense my headphone jack as filled. | 05:25 |
| Oleg_ | which one is install only? | 05:25 |
| chicobo329 | but when I boot up I still get the (development branch) boot options when on GRUB | 05:26 |
| bazhang | the alternate one Oleg_ | 05:26 |
| Bassoon | I can put the headphones in, but sound will still come out of the speakers AND the headphones. | 05:26 |
| seamus7 | pawan go to System / Quit then choose Log Out ... enter new user's username and password .... voila | 05:26 |
| shally87 | bazhang: so sorry but i dont really know what gui are..and i just downloaded the server version to learn something new..i got no basic in this.. | 05:26 |
| keycool1 | bazhang did you see my paste? | 05:26 |
| Makgyver | can I do a network install for PowerPC? | 05:26 |
| JPSmon | is anyone good with Broken Packages?? | 05:26 |
| nano_ | hey guys, what is good gui program to burn iso bootable images? | 05:26 |
| cvd-pr | chicobo329, you do the partial-upgrade? | 05:26 |
| Millertime_018 | hey how do i log in as root | 05:26 |
| Millertime_018 | ? | 05:26 |
| Makgyver | I can place the ISO on my lan somewhere | 05:26 |
| Nikonlappy | shally87: you should use the desktop.. the server by default does not have a guy ( the pretey desktop look) | 05:26 |
| Nikonlappy | shally87: gui = graphical user interface | 05:27 |
| chicobo329 | partial-upgrade from what? | 05:27 |
| xim | if I backup my home dir and then reinstall linux and copy the home folder back in, will I need to manually reinstall all the packages, or is there a list of installed packages saved somewhere in the home dir that can be restored all at once? | 05:27 |
| leo_rockw | Millertime_018: if you need to ask, you shouldn't be doing it | 05:27 |
| seamus7 | nano_ I think I use K3B ... just choose the slowest burn settings | 05:27 |
| bazhang | shally87: then you should get the desktop version--no gui means no shiny buttons etc to click but have to enter everything is a dos-like environment (the command line or cli) | 05:27 |
| Nikonlappy | !root | Millertime_018 | 05:27 |
| ubotu | Millertime_018: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 05:27 |
| Ooglez | Millertime_018: Ubuntu prevents it to protect you from messing things up. use a command like sudo if you need root access | 05:27 |
| bazhang | Millertime_018: very bad idea | 05:27 |
| nano_ | seamus7: K3B...is that kde app? | 05:27 |
| roocraig | bazhang: what do you think I should do? | 05:27 |
| DON^SRK | pls help me also | 05:27 |
| Bassoon | I'm also have problems getting Ubuntu to sense my headphone jack as filled. | 05:27 |
| Bassoon | I can put the headphones in, but sound will still come out of the speakers AND the headphones. | 05:28 |
| kevykev | Hi all, how do I get my sound to work? | 05:28 |
| chicobo329 | oh wait! I had a couple of those before. I forgot how long ago it was. It wasn't recent | 05:28 |
| neil_d | jamiejackson: I suppose it depends on the exact definition of 'service', these scripts get run to start different things at init time. | 05:28 |
| Drezard | in regards to wireless connections... | 05:28 |
| Nikonlappy | you can use root .. there isnt a big problem with it.. but its frowned upon with this OS | 05:28 |
| seamus7 | nano_ yes but it works in Ubuntu/gnome | 05:28 |
| cvd-pr | chicobo329, the update manager never ask you to do a partial-upgrade? | 05:28 |
| bazhang | roocraig: can you startup in recovery mode? | 05:28 |
| nano_ | seamus7: sweet,tnx | 05:28 |
| Geoffrey2 | why does it seem Ubuntu is no longer capable of automatically detecting wireless networks? | 05:28 |
| roocraig | how do you do that? | 05:28 |
| chicobo329 | not recently, cvd-pr | 05:28 |
| shally87 | Nikonlappy: thanks | 05:28 |
| baudthief | my install will likely break after a reboot, and I'm gonna need to start over - I've just backed up ~/home, are there any other dirs I need to back up that might contain personal files/info | 05:28 |
| Nikonlappy | shally87: np | 05:28 |
| baudthief | * ? even | 05:28 |
| pawan | how to install grahics driver nvidia | 05:28 |
| chicobo329 | it has done partial-upgrades in the past | 05:28 |
| roocraig | bazhang: do you think it is that graphics setting? | 05:28 |
| Bassoon | Geoffrey2, for me it seems to update slower. | 05:28 |
| bazhang | roocraig: get into the boot menu and choose it there | 05:28 |
| jamiejackson | neil_d: if i add a script in there and make it executable, will just doing those two steps make it run at init time? | 05:28 |
| chicobo329 | I can remember at least two. but not at any recent time around the release date | 05:28 |
| shally87 | bazhang: ok..thanks a lot.. and so how do i learn how to use the server version? | 05:28 |
| Shadow420 | how can I fix my login screen it's too big for my monitor | 05:28 |
| Nikonlappy | !nvidia | pawan | 05:28 |
| ubotu | pawan: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 05:28 |
| neil_d | jamiejackson: Is there a rc.local there | 05:28 |
| jamiejackson | neil_d: yes | 05:29 |
| Bassoon | It still detects them, Geoffrey2. | 05:29 |
| Bassoon | I'm also have problems getting Ubuntu to sense my headphone jack as filled. | 05:29 |
| Bassoon | I can put the headphones in, but sound will still come out of the speakers AND the headphones. | 05:29 |
| backdraft | Anyone know what the fs type would be to mount a freebsd in ubuntu? | 05:29 |
| Nikonlappy | Bassoon: search the forums.. my bf had that same problem dunno if he got it fixed | 05:29 |
| tech0007 | backdraft: ufs? | 05:29 |
| Bassoon | Will do. | 05:29 |
| Geoffrey2 | Bassoon: hmmm, I'm having zero luck here.. | 05:29 |
| cvd-pr | chicobo329, that strange, cuz i used heron since beta but know say release version | 05:29 |
| IcemanV9 | backdraft: ufs ... dunno if it is supported in ubuntu | 05:29 |
| keycool1 | bazhang: did you see my paste? | 05:29 |
| Nikonlappy | Geoffrey2: try the forums if you have no luck | 05:30 |
| bazhang | shally87: best to get a desktop and then install LAMP on top--especially as you are new to this; alternately you could install ubuntu-desktop to that (sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop) and work from there --if you do not wish to reinstall | 05:30 |
| Shadow420 | how can I fix my login screen it's too big for my monitor? | 05:30 |
| backdraft | Tried that one unknown fs | 05:30 |
| chicobo329 | well I guess I could technically be on a release, but I had no major updates leading up to the release day | 05:30 |
| neil_d | jamiejackson: I would sugjest you put your command in that rc.local file, maybe just something that wont cause trouble to start with. like load a module you don't need as a test. | 05:30 |
| roocraig | bazhang: i am going to try that and I will reenter the chat and tell you if there was any luck-ok? | 05:30 |
| IcemanV9 | backdraft: ufs2 | 05:30 |
| pawan | cant load compiz in hardy | 05:30 |
| chicobo329 | in fact, I didn't get any for about a day or so | 05:30 |
| bazhang | keycool1: the one in the channel? yes, sadly | 05:30 |
| keycool1 | sadly? | 05:30 |
| bazhang | roocraig: I will be waiting ;] | 05:30 |
| B166erx | quickly, is that a problem ( i dont have sound) ghost@Daedalus:~$ sudo modprobe snd- | 05:30 |
| B166erx | FATAL: Module snd_ not found. | 05:30 |
| xim | baudthief: your home dir contains everything except logs and programs | 05:31 |
| keycool1 | oh right, wont past it in the channel anymore | 05:31 |
| xim | my ? is if I backup my home dir and then reinstall linux and copy the home folder back in, will I need to manually reinstall all the packages, or is there a list of installed packages saved somewhere in the home dir that can be restored all at once? | 05:31 |
| bazhang | keycool1: could you paste it to pastebin and then give me the link (please dont paste in the channel again thanks) | 05:31 |
| Nikonlappy | B166erx: nothing quick here | 05:31 |
| seamus7 | maybe you just need to update grub ... first back up your menu.lst ... then sudo update-grub | 05:31 |
| roxygirl | does anyone know anything about watching full episodes (ie. from abc.com) from canada....is it an isp problem or a linux incompatibility? | 05:31 |
| jamiejackson | okay, neil_d, i can try that. thanks | 05:31 |
| Flannel | !cloning | xim | 05:31 |
| ubotu | xim: To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && apt-get dselect-upgrade » - See also !automate | 05:31 |
| Shadow420 | hey how can I fix my login screen it's too big for my monitor? | 05:31 |
| gotenks | pawan: google how-to's for ubuntu. | 05:31 |
| chicobo329 | I recall someone before saying they had a similar problem to mine in that the system was said to up to date when it really wasn't | 05:31 |
| bazhang | roxygirl: what is the link let me check | 05:32 |
| Nikonlappy | roxygirl: i watch from cbs.com all the time | 05:32 |
| jmbiggs | total noob here, question - I had HH RC installed but now can't seem to 'upgrade' to the full version, what do I need to do? | 05:32 |
| dsas | xim: You can use synaptic to create a list of packages which can then be installed once you have reinstalled | 05:32 |
| B166erx | Nikonlappy, make it long then :) i'm at it for 6 hours now..still no answers . | 05:32 |
| neil_d | jamiejackson: bye | 05:32 |
| xim | thx flannel | 05:32 |
| shally87 | bazhang: LAMP? this too short for me..anyway i try to run it on my old laptop which uses celeron chipset.. so which one i should choose..1. standard personal computer or 2. 64bit amd and intel computers.. | 05:32 |
| seamus7 | chicobo329 maybe you just need to update grub ... backup menu.lst first ... then sudo update-grub | 05:32 |
| Makgyver | ok I am burning the ISO in MAC OS X under Toast, lest see if this works for the PowerPC | 05:32 |
| Shpoo1 | I'm in the process of upgrading right now, and it's installing all the new packages. Quite of bunch of them couldn't be installed, whether due to missing dependencies, corrupt packages, or other reasons. Most were open office packages, but I can't remember all of them. Any have this problem? | 05:32 |
| bazhang | jmbiggs: the servers are still slow atm | 05:32 |

| shally87 | gotenks: thanks...does all pc can install Linux os? | 05:36 |
| MrRoboto | jsoftw: you should go to #Xubuntu | 05:36 |
| bazhang | keycool1: that is the aironet cisco wireless chipset; let me check on that for a second | 05:36 |
| jsoftw | MrRoboto: but im using ubuntu | 05:36 |
| nhuyanhuk | Millertime_018: it said that desktop effect cannot be enabled | 05:36 |
| roxygirl | bazhang: no loopholes? is there anyway to connect via a US isp? or is that a security risk | 05:36 |
| Oleg_ | as soon as I install ubuntu, I can compile mplayer and use it? | 05:36 |
| Nikonlappy | roxygirl: thats an isp thing | 05:36 |
| MrRoboto | jsoftw: yeah but they are the authority in xfce | 05:36 |
| keycool1 | bazhang: great thanks, I haven't foung anything in the forums.... | 05:36 |
| gotenks | shally87: sure, as long as they meet the minimum requirements for the OS | 05:36 |

| bazhang | roxygirl: not that I know of sorry | 05:37 |
| Scunizi | karllenz: probably but at the end of it all you'll need an ethernet crossover connector | 05:37 |
| Nikonlappy | roxygirl: that means since you arent in the US you cant watch those videos. I have that same problem when trying to watch dr who from the UK :( | 05:37 |

| roocraig | bazhang: i run ubuntu in recovery mode and it runs own a whole list of stuff and then just gives me a blinking cursor in the left bottom corner | 05:38 |
| Makgyver | anyone that can help me with starting an install off on a PowerMac plz p/msg me, its too noisy in here, and I cant see if I am being answered | 05:38 |
| pawan | no restricted drivers in hardy | 05:38 |
| MrKeuner | Millertime_018: try virtualbox sometime too | 05:38 |
| karllenz | Scunizi: iv used the cable for internet connection sharing before so i believe it is a crossover | 05:38 |
| Scunizi | Millertime_018: if you plan on actually installing a different OS with Vmware.. go to their site and get the free server edition | 05:38 |
| Millertime_018 | iFire: you shouldn't actually use the upgrade option, because its so faulty, nothing wrong with a fresh install every time | 05:39 |
| backdraft | IcemanV9, nope I just tried to reboot and load into freebsd and grub didn't notice it :/ | 05:39 |
| mepatuhoo | anyone know how to setup jboss in ubuntu? | 05:39 |
| Scunizi | karllenz: the only thing I don't know how to do is activate two of your nic's at the same time... wireless and wired.. but you're on the right track | 05:39 |
| pawan | hello | 05:39 |
| Millertime_018 | there are too many complaints concerning the upgrade business | 05:39 |
| Shadow420 | pawan look in hardware drivers in administration | 05:39 |
| iFire | Millertime_018 well that means I have to copy stuff onto a usb stick | 05:39 |
| karllenz | Scunizi: thats what i havent been able to do my self | 05:39 |
| Millertime_018 | are there any game channels? specifically one for sauerbraten | 05:39 |
| IcemanV9 | backdraft: i have done it before ... i don't remember how i added fbsd to the grub ... let me look for it. | 05:40 |
| Shpoo1 | Ugh, talk about a bad upgrade experience. Update-manager closed suddenly mid-upgrade, now I've got 38 broken packages and it won't let me finish the update. Time for the torrents! | 05:40 |
| bazhang | roocraig: do you remember any of the pertinent errors? would be helpful if so | 05:40 |
| pawan | i have hardware testing | 05:40 |
| karllenz | Scunizi: mabye the same way you would share an internet connection | 05:40 |
| Millertime_018 | iFire: i know that it sucks, but its the most reliable way. just google update problems in linux and see how much comes up | 05:40 |
| Scunizi | karllenz: give it a go. I"ve never done tat | 05:40 |
| Scunizi | *that | 05:40 |
| Flannel | Shpoo1: what does `sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade` give you? | 05:41 |
| bazhang | Millertime_018: that is not good advice to iFire | 05:41 |
| Millertime_018 | anytime you wait here on the chat as well, you will see quit a few people complaining. | 05:41 |
| Millertime_018 | is it bad? it was what i was told | 05:41 |
| roocraig | bazhang: who do I look up the pertinent errors? how do I scan through the list of items? | 05:41 |
| karllenz | Scunizi: did it once for my xbox360 usinf firewire some how | 05:41 |
| karllenz | firestarter i mean | 05:41 |
| Millertime_018 | i'm not trying to mislead him | 05:41 |
| bazhang | iFire: please do not listen to what Millertime_018 is saying; upgrade option is fine | 05:41 |
| mepatuhoo | is anyone in here use jboss on ubuntu | 05:41 |
| Assid | seamus7: this is irritating me | 05:41 |

| Assid | seamus7: no guide | 05:42 |
| IcemanV9 | backdraft: i am planning to dual-boot fbsd & hardy on old laptop later this week. | 05:42 |
| Assid | theres a package.. i tried to --reinstall it | 05:43 |
| mepatuhoo | is there a chat room for jboss for ubuntu? | 05:43 |
| bazhang | Shadow420: the splash screen is too high a resolution or was it the login screen | 05:43 |
| Shpoo1 | Flannel: update just lists the repos, and dist-upgrade shows a list of broken packages and unmet dependencies | 05:43 |
| seamus7 | Assid what method are you using? | 05:43 |
| Daliuso | Is anyone have problems connecting to their protected wireless networks with Hardy? my network uses WPA2 Personal and it doesn't accept the passkey :( | 05:43 |

| Shadow420 | bazhang hey how can I fix my login screen it's too big for my monitor? | 06:10 |
| howlingmadhowie | mepatuhoo: are you trying to set up a jboss/seam/eclipse stack or similar? | 06:10 |
| kilgariff | austin_: wait, sorry | 06:10 |
| Carenthalas | Hi all. | 06:10 |
| mepatuhoo | howlingmadhowie: yes | 06:10 |
| mepatuhoo | howlingmadhowie: i think | 06:10 |
| kilgariff | austin_: user@serverhostname:/path/to/destination | 06:10 |
| austin_ | The thing is I can connect via putty, but I can't connect via the "Connect to Server" option | 06:11 |

| Jouva | After the switch from Gutsy to Hardy, my custom name for the mount point of my flash drive is no longer being displayed as the name of my flash drive. It still MOUNTS in the directory I specified, but it shows up as "260.0 MB Media" on my desktop. Any thoughts? | 06:11 |

| howlingmadhowie | mepatuhoo: oh, okay. you may want to download vs 3.3 of eclipse as well. i think the one in the repos is still vs 3.2 | 06:11 |
| amenado | dmsuperman-> dont know where you are getting the rest to make it so huge | 06:12 |
| cesya | hhelo | 06:12 |
| dmsuperman | amenado, That's exactly what I'm wondering :s | 06:12 |
| austin_ | the new machine is a server that I want to be able to transfer files via SSH with the nautilus GUI of "Connect to Server" | 06:12 |
| roocraig | inewbie: i have no surround option-any other suggestions? | 06:12 |
| tonyyarusso | Carenthalas: Depends on the person, but common answers are up to date software, ease of use, and the community. | 06:12 |
| bazhang | Shadow420: scroll up and you can see it | 06:12 |
| matt444 | sudo dpkg --purge gnome-screensaver fixes my problem | 06:12 |
| mepatuhoo | amenado: is tomcat easy to set up in ubuntu and will i still be able to use all the same stuff i am doing in struts that i am doing at work in jboss? | 06:12 |
| IcemanV9 | austin_: use scp then | 06:12 |
| sareth | Hi i'm using the alternate installer and trying to use encryption+LVM with the keys stored on usb. can anyone point me in the right direction? | 06:12 |
| austin_ | I tried scp but it times out | 06:13 |
| howlingmadhowie | mepatuhoo: and tomcat is in the repos too. it doesn't support all the things jboss supports, however | 06:13 |
| eviking5 | anybody use lightning 0.8 with thundebird on 8.04? on my computer it does not work.... the TB screen looks like mess? | 06:13 |

| JohnMMkubuntu | in desktop behavior, I have show icons checked (always has been) along with the showing of the mounted volumes, yet no matter how many times I restart X the icons never appear on the desktop ...what more do I need to do? | 06:13 |
| roocraig | bazhang: i have an ati video card-can you post the bug report for that card maker or is it the same bug report? | 06:14 |
| austin_ | Any idea on what could be wrong if scp times out, but putty works? | 06:14 |

| IcemanV9 | austin_: timed out? hm. i used scp lots of time @ work and home. never seen 'timed out'. | 06:14 |
| ants | Anyone know why emerald woudn't work in 8.04? | 06:14 |
| dmsuperman | amenado, So do you have any suggestions for determining where the rest of the data is from? | 06:14 |
| amenado | mepatuhoo-> you are mixing stuff, tomcat is java based, apache is c and php is php | 06:14 |
| roocraig | i know i thought you were talking about sound no graphics-so sorry my bad | 06:14 |
| howlingmadhowie | mepatuhoo: i'd be surprised if you could combine struts and php :) | 06:15 |
| bazhang | roocraig: why would *I* file a bug when I dont have one ;] | 06:15 |
| amenado | dmsuperman-> nope | 06:15 |
| austin_ | Weird thing is I can connect via putty, just not scp | 06:15 |
| dmsuperman | damn | 06:15 |

| bazhang | ants: more info please | 06:15 |
| IcemanV9 | austin_: putty is ssh and scp is "secure copy via ssh" stuff | 06:15 |
| roocraig | bazhang:i thought there may have been a bug report for ati graphics as well | 06:15 |
| osmosis_ | anyone use libvirt or virsh ? | 06:16 |
| Kyle__ | dpt: probably not the console client, it might not do it :) | 06:16 |
| leo_rockw | !anyone | osmosis_ | 06:16 |
| ubotu | osmosis_: 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? | 06:16 |
| IcemanV9 | austin_: you should be able to scp in putty | 06:16 |

| roocraig | Inewbie: what info do you want from the command? | 06:16 |
| dpt | Any solution to that? like a java console client for example? | 06:16 |
| bazhang | JohnMMkubuntu: this is kubuntu? kde3 or 4 | 06:16 |
| austin_ | hmm well i will try i guess, im new at this, thanks for the help | 06:16 |
| dmsuperman | amenado, you mean from df -h ? | 06:16 |
| dpt | I only have access to the console via SSH | 06:16 |

| === austin_ is now known as austin17 | ||
| osmosis_ | how do I start a new kvm host with virsh ? | 06:17 |

| kilgariff | JohnMMkubuntu: Have you tried looking in gconf-editor? | 06:17 |
| amenado | dmsuperman-> paste both, df -h and mount | 06:17 |
| bazhang | JohnMMkubuntu: you need to manipulate those via dolphin file manager | 06:17 |

| mepatuhoo | amenado: well if i cant thats ok it was just an interesting experiment i wanted to try i would be happy to just use struts. | 06:17 |
| leo_rockw | JohnMMkubuntu: you can tell it to open the previous session, tho | 06:17 |
| bazhang | khaotik: you are in it ;] | 06:18 |
| leo_rockw | JohnMMkubuntu: that should do it | 06:18 |
| IcemanV9 | khaotik: you are in the correct room | 06:18 |
| howlingmadhowie | mepatuhoo: however, if you really want to combine php and java you will have a lot of work to de | 06:18 |
| amenado | mepatuhoo-> yeah stick with struts | 06:18 |
| khaotik | sweet the other night it was ubuntu+1 or something | 06:18 |
| rodolfo | has anyone here tried SWFdec player or Gnash? | 06:18 |

| dot | why doesn't my linux ubuntu gutsy gibbon find my iphone? | 06:18 |
| JohnMMkubuntu | bazhang: where are those settings in dolphin? | 06:18 |
| khaotik | could i get a couple of yalls opinion if you gots the time? | 06:18 |
| dot | should I update it or? | 06:18 |
| amenado | mepatuhoo you are comparing apples and oranges | 06:19 |
| roocraig | Inewbie: hd ati sb chip: Realtek ALC861-vd | 06:19 |
| nickrud | green http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/hardy/release/ , except it's still getting hammered. I don't know of any mirrors | 06:19 |
| mepatuhoo | amenado: o | 06:19 |
| bazhang | dot: only via itunes not available in ubuntu (though wine might work you can try) | 06:19 |
| IcemanV9 | khaotik: yea. #ubuntu+1 will be up soon as they are working on the next version | 06:19 |
| dot | bazhang: so it won't even charge through ubuntu computer? | 06:19 |
| dmsuperman | amenado, http://paste.stgraber.org/2806 http://paste.stgraber.org/2807 | 06:20 |
| bazhang | JohnMMkubuntu: which settings? just move them around delete etc via either right click or drag and drop | 06:20 |
| khaotik | well i upgraded the other night with beta and the sound on my puter was all jacked. sounded like static | 06:20 |
| bazhang | dot charge? not sure--have you tried | 06:20 |
| orudie_ | i currently have ubuntu 7.10 server installed.. how can i update it to the new version? and if i do , will it keep all my settings and installed programs unchanged ? | 06:20 |
| Vlet | mepatuhoo: rails! | 06:20 |
| nickrud | orudie_ sudo do-release-upgrade, and yes | 06:21 |
| amenado | dmsuperman-> no wonder you get 21gig anything below / is what your are disk dumping | 06:21 |
| dot | bazhang: how does it look like? | 06:21 |
| khaotik | after countless hours of trying to fix, nothing so i reinstalled 7.10 | 06:21 |
| dot | it has teh image on itunes | 06:21 |
| bazhang | orudie_: sudo do-release-upgrade | 06:21 |
| dot | and slide for emergency | 06:21 |
| dot | it's what comes in my computer | 06:21 |
| mepatuhoo | amenado: i cant find tomcat in the add/remove app. Vlet: my boss has not trained me in rails yet. that i will be learning in a few months. | 06:21 |
| Cpudan80 | Hello all | 06:21 |
| bazhang | dot how does what look like? not sure what you mean there thanks | 06:21 |
| Vlet | orudie_: baaad idea. Servers are supposed to be STABLE. upgrading to a distro the day it was released is begging for instability | 06:21 |
| Cpudan80 | So I just a LAMP with HH --- it works ok except it wants me to download PHP files | 06:21 |
| gooody | what is the difference between KDE and GNOME deskto environments? | 06:21 |
| Cpudan80 | vs just viewing them in firefox | 06:21 |
| ants | I have just upgraded and now the windows are not being decorated by emerald, although the top and bottom bars are | 06:22 |
| * nickrud thinks Vlet has good advice, but someone's gotta test it :) | 06:22 | |
| bazhang | www.distrowatch.com has the screenshots gooody | 06:22 |
| howlingmadhowie | mepatuhoo: struts is a web-framework. php is a language | 06:22 |
| khaotik | i was wondering if i download the live cd of 8.04 will all the things i did to get my laptop working properly be the same??? | 06:22 |
| amenado | mepatuhoo-> you have still good locks of hair? take a picture now, and then in six months take another for comparison <wink> | 06:22 |
| tomoyuki28jp | I have only one user to login, but I have to type user name every time. Is there any way to set default login user?? | 06:22 |
| dmsuperman | amenado, so wouldn't it then dump like 200+ GB? because my other hard drives have that much | 06:22 |
| dot | bazhang: it shows first an apple | 06:22 |
| Vlet | nickrud: yeah, I suppose ;) | 06:22 |
| dot | logo of apple | 06:22 |
| Scunizi | tomoyuki28jp: that's what keeps your machine safe.. | 06:22 |
| bazhang | khaotik: hard to say no idea what you have done | 06:22 |
| Vlet | nickrud: we'll let him handle it :p | 06:22 |
| gooody | bazhang: are applications in gnome works in KDE too? | 06:23 |
| bazhang | dot not sure as dont have an iphone | 06:23 |
| nickrud | mepatuhoo look for it in system->admin->synaptic | 06:23 |
| dot | bazhang: hen it comes a cable and itunes picture on iphone | 06:23 |
| amenado | dmsuperman-> the point is, you are trying to disk dump / and subfolders below | 06:23 |
| dot | and a slide for emergency calls | 06:23 |
| bazhang | gooody: many do yes | 06:23 |
| f00f- | i just upgraded to 8.04, and now i get a white background when i login to X (no menu, desktop) and when i switch to VT1 i dont get a console. ideas? | 06:23 |
| dot | my computer shows "import photos" | 06:23 |
| dot | when I turn my iphone on | 06:23 |
| mepatuhoo | amenado: why is there stuff in synaptic that are not in the add/remove app | 06:23 |
| khaotik | my broadcom chip. | 06:23 |
| koomber1664 | is there something like a list of applications that I should try out on ubuntu? | 06:23 |
| tomoyuki28jp | Scunizi: So there is no way to skip the process?? | 06:23 |
| pbx | If I boot the 8.04 CD on my crappy old dell and the video is wonky (repeating in three vertical stripes), is there anything in the installer that will help me correct tat? | 06:23 |
| Fireal | hey all, has anyone found a way to get the ati (fglrx) driver to stick, I can't seem, to get rid of mesa | 06:23 |
| bazhang | dot this is gutsy or hardy | 06:23 |
| orudie_ | Vlet, so are you saying i shouldn't update ? | 06:23 |
| dot | bazhang: gutsy | 06:23 |
| gooody | bazhang: Kubuntu uses KDE environment, am i right? | 06:23 |
| dot | i run gutsy | 06:23 |
| lnewbie_ | roocraig: so it detected sound chip; make sure PCM is not muted | 06:24 |
| milly1234 | well I found out how to solve my wireless problems with my linksys wireless pci card.... to not use the linux rt2500 drivers and use the windows wireless driver thing instead | 06:24 |
| amenado | mepatuhoo-> i dont know, i have not really looked deeply on what add/remove have compared to synaptic | 06:24 |
| dmsuperman | amenado, Right, which I figured would either take all the mounted drives with it or it wouldn't. It's obviously not, because then the dump would be well over 200 GB. However, / is only using 4.5GB, so I'm just wondering where the extra 15GB of data comes from | 06:24 |
| bazhang | khaotik: you may want to hang on to gutsy a bit longer then ;] | 06:24 |
| Scunizi | tomoyuki28jp: yes.. but if you do you're opening your machine to the outside world.. I don't know the specifics of how to just that it can be done | 06:24 |
| bazhang | gooody: aye | 06:24 |
| nickrud | tomoyuki28jp install gdmsetup, and on the security tab you can set the auto logged in user | 06:24 |
| khaotik | i finally found a thread that works seamless on the wireless chip i have. is it safe to say that i could use the same thread? | 06:24 |
| amenado | dmsuperman-> look /dev/sdb5 20G 4.5G 14G 25% / that tells me you are trying to dump at least 20Gigs | 06:24 |
| roocraig | Inewbie: pcm not muted---where should I go from here? | 06:24 |
| f00f- | i hate this fucking ubuntu shit, low quality releases, almost every single time :( | 06:24 |
| Vlet | orudie_: well, you can try, but if your server is a live system (actively serving a purpose) then you should wait, and perhaps install HH server on a test system | 06:24 |
| nickrud | !language | f00f- | 06:24 |
| ubotu | f00f-: Please watch your language and topic to help keep this channel family friendly. | 06:24 |
| Vlet | f00f-: then off with you@ | 06:24 |
| thoreauputic | f00f-: watch it... | 06:25 |
| Claan22 | I was wondering if anybody would be willing to help me get my Realtek 8185 wireless card working. I've found a few different ways to set it up that supposedly work (mostly with ndiswrapper), but I keep messing up or something, because it never works | 06:25 |
| tomoyuki28jp | nickrud: I will try that. Thanks ! | 06:25 |
| bazhang | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone dot you should read this first | 06:25 |
| dmsuperman | amenado, the 4.5 is the used space, 20g is the size of the partition. Does it write 0's for all the rest of the partition? | 06:25 |
| khaotik | maybe you should read more foof | 06:25 |
| Vlet | f00f-: here's a great alternative: http://microsoft.com/ :-P | 06:25 |
| mepatuhoo | amenado: there is a lot of stuff that showed up for tomcat what do i check | 06:25 |
| tobe002 | hi guys | 06:25 |
| dot | but it does only say I need it jailbroken | 06:25 |
| f00f- | i'm looking at the release notes, and don't see any specific caveats. | 06:25 |
| bazhang | khaotik: really hard to say; some have had success others not | 06:25 |
| amenado | dmsuperman-> please read the man pages of dd, man dd so you get an idea what is being dumped | 06:25 |
| gooody | bazhang: thanks for the information. i just want to learn more about linux environment. | 06:25 |
| JPSman | how do I install flash into firefox? | 06:25 |
| koomber1664 | The only trouble I've had with my install was (a) Intel shipping dire sata drivers, and (b) my gfx nearly giving me a fit with the flickering till I updated the drivers. All in all a very pleasant expereince | 06:26 |
| fxfitz | For some reason, my wireless keypad buttons aren't working. Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this? | 06:26 |
| dot | it means I need to jailbreak it to get it charging? | 06:26 |
| amenado | mepatuhoo-> all of it? i dont know what is on the list | 06:26 |
| lnewbie_ | Vlet: haha | 06:26 |
| milly1234 | 8.04 has been the most problamatic release I've installed in a long while.... especially when it came to wireless internet and video | 06:26 |
| bazhang | dot no idea about charging; seems unlikely though best not to risk it imo | 06:26 |
| mepatuhoo | amenado: there is quite a bit | 06:26 |
| Fireal | why did xorg take a step back? Anyone know a link to a working how-to for ati cards? | 06:26 |
| nickrud | f00f- I've read of people having that issue with fglrx, from ati's site | 06:26 |
| dmsuperman | amenado, Will do | 06:26 |
| amenado | milly1234-> i will second you.. networking seems problematic in Hardy | 06:26 |
| Claan22 | does anybody know how to get ndiswrapper working? | 06:27 |
| insmod | <Claan22>i have that in my laptop and it works great | 06:27 |
| dot | kthanxbye | 06:27 |
| khaotik | what about my sound issue? i tried the upgrade from 7.10 to 8.04 and the sound was all staticky. do you think if i install from a live cd would make difference | 06:27 |
| bazhang | dot you're welcome | 06:27 |
| mabus | how come when I vnc to my ubuntu machine when it's first booted, it just shows a basic x desktop before closing after a minute or so. never brings up gdm. I can only login remotely if I first login using my keyboard locally on the machine. how can I remedy this? | 06:27 |
| adil | floodbot2: hey | 06:27 |
| mepatuhoo | amenado: i am going to check all of it | 06:27 |
| cool | !sound | khaotik | 06:27 |
| amenado | mepatuhoo-> you can download tomcat from tomcat.apache.org | 06:27 |
| ubotu | khaotik: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 06:27 |

| khaotik | claan22 what kind of machine you trying to run it on??? | 06:27 |
| ants | I have just upgraded and now the windows are not being decorated by emerald, although the top and bottom bars are. Does anyone know why it might bedoing this? | 06:28 |
| pygmymath | Just to say everyone. Trying to install xp sp2 on an old box and this channel is >>> windows by a mile. I love you all. | 06:28 |
| nickrud | f00f- I think that reinstalling the restricted modules, libgl1-mesa-dri, libgl-mesa-glx and rebooting turned the trick | 06:28 |
| Claan22 | khaotik: a laptop, AMD-64 processor | 06:28 |
| tvn | could someone tell me the irc server that has the #java channel ? | 06:28 |
| f00f- | ok i'll try to reboot in textmode :) | 06:28 |
| mepatuhoo | amenado: will it hurt if i check all of them? | 06:28 |
| Claan22 | khaotik: it has a Realtek 8185 wireless card | 06:28 |
| amenado | mabus ssh in with X forwarding then run gnome-session & | 06:28 |

| whta | how can I get the AWN applets installed? it seems everything else is in the repositories now but the applets. | 06:28 |
| Claan22 | khaotik: alienware Aurora m9700 | 06:28 |

| tvn | pbx, the server I am on (irc.freenode.net) doesn't have the #java channle | 06:29 |

| insmod | <khaotik>that doesn't matter -- only the chipset | 06:29 |

| lnewbie_ | Fireal: goto http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Main_Page; tell me if you get 3D games & apps not to crash | 06:29 |

| milly1234 | its been pretty messy for me, gutsy was near flawless on this machine, hardy was a day and a half of investigating and tweaking | 06:30 |

| Fireal | lnewbie_: I am just trying for compiz to work, I think I am going back to gutsy. I install the ati driver via the repositories and the manul dwnload from ati's site. No matter what fglrx-info still tells me I am using mesa | 06:31 |
| Claan22 | redips: I have 2 nVidia 7900 Go GS's (laptop card) and they seem to work great with linux and envy | 06:31 |
| amenado | orudie_-> do you have any reasons why you need to upgrade? | 06:31 |
| insmod | <Claan22>I can't help right now but it does work --- i have that in my laptop and it works great | 06:32 |
| orudie_ | amenado, no | 06:32 |
| shtoom | Hi if the upgrade process is interrupted in the middle due to power outage can it be resumed ? | 06:32 |
| orudie_ | amenado, why ? | 06:32 |
| amenado | orudie_-> then dont do upgrade lest you haft to | 06:32 |

| roocraig | Inewbie: i get sound through my headphones but not the laptop speakers | 06:32 |

| mabus | amenado: I realize that's the more secure option, but why can I not login otherwise until I've logged in locally? | 06:32 |
| amenado | orudie_-> not necessarily true always | 06:32 |
| dmsuperman | amenado, alright, read it. My only idea so far is to use the nofollow flag when executing so it won't follow symlinks, but other than that I'm still drawing a blank as to where it gets the extra data. it's not copying the mounted drives, because it would be much bigger, but it's also not just copying the files from the partition, because it would be smaller | 06:32 |

| mabus | amenado: ^^^ that was my original question | 06:33 |
| amenado | dmsuperman-> dd means dumping the whole disk if /dev/sdb5 is / and per your pasted, its 20gig | 06:33 |
| Fireal | nickrud: OK, brb | 06:34 |

| green | nickrud Sorry this irc doesn;t alert me when I get a message, do you mind postng it again? sorry | 06:34 |
| mabus | you said to ssh in with x forwarding. why do I have to do this, isn't there a way I can continue to connect to Xvnc normally and get a gdm prompt, without first logging in locally? | 06:34 |
| keen__ | Starnestommy thanks | 06:34 |
| banana21 | scroll up | 06:34 |

| sareth | For anyone having trouble with fglrx not initializing, please check wiki.cchtml.com 's troubleshooting page first. | 06:35 |
| Claan22 | thanks khaotik | 06:35 |
| dmsuperman | amenado, So even if the rest of the disk is empty it will dump 0's then? | 06:35 |
| amenado | mabus no, thats your vncserver prompt, not the gdm prompt | 06:35 |
| amenado | dmsuperman-> yes | 06:35 |
| nickrud | Fdisk_ right click an mp3, select properties, then the open with tab (for gnome) | 06:35 |
| redips | .iso files. Just double click on it in ubuntu and put a blank cd in your burner. | 06:35 |
| oddalot | lol | 06:35 |
| mabus | amenado: it asks for my Xvnc password, then brings me to the login prompt. but that's if I've logged in locally already. otherwise, I just enter the vnc password and it goes to a x server with nothing on it, before disappearing after a minute | 06:35 |
| banana21 | in ubuntu, the vncserver connects you to the current session only | 06:35 |
| lnewbie_ | Fireal: Man... Im batting 0...I have no Idea | 06:35 |
| mabus | amenado: nope I'm positive on that one. gdm login screen. | 06:35 |

| oddalot | linux is hard | 06:36 |
| Fdisk_ | k ive done that but sometimes is still opens witm movie player | 06:36 |
| dmsuperman | amenado, Alright, that's what I needed to know. Do you have a suggestion for either A: Not writing the 0's or B: An alternate method to backup my whole Ubuntu install? | 06:36 |
| nickrud | green no | 06:36 |
| Baby_Shambl3s | hi how stable is transmission as a peer-to-peer client? Would it be better for me to use deluge isntead? | 06:36 |
| amenado | mabus, okay, i have to retry it on my host.. | 06:36 |
| khaotik | instead of downloading the driver he has for broadcom find out which .inf driver you need. i would guess the same steps would work. | 06:36 |
| oddalot | i haven't been able to compile any program myself for ubuntu | 06:36 |
| green | nickrud I can't seem to find a torrent either | 06:36 |
| oddalot | from the source code | 06:36 |

| milly1234 | with compiz-fusion for some reason when the password dialog comes up for when I need root privalages when the background darkens it stays that way until Io move a window or activate the cube causing it to have to redraw something | 06:36 |
| amenado | dmsuperman-> use tar or rsync and options for exclude | 06:36 |
| nickrud | green yeah, it's a pain for the minor releases | 06:36 |
| Baby_Shambl3s | oddalot: you're hard linux is not hard it only responds to your command and that is if you know what youre doing so how can linux be hard? | 06:36 |

| oddalot | Stanestommy: when i try and compile xmms i get errors saying it's missing header files and that the c code has errors | 06:37 |
| dmsuperman | amenado, One last question I think. If I use the tar option (which I'm pretty sure I'm gonna go with, for simplicity sake) will it follow symlinks? Or will it just copy the linkfile itself? | 06:38 |
| Fireal | nickrud: right I install it and when i type fglrx-info it still says I am using mesa (after restart of course) | 06:38 |
| ChrisULM | hey guys, our local lug is putting on an ubuntu booth at a show tom. are there any videos of the OS that we can have playing on a few of the machines? | 06:38 |

| leo_rockw | Baby_Shambl3s: well... just wait until someone asks something you know. considering hardy was released a couple of days ago a lot of new people are probably going to come for help | 06:48 |
| oddalot | nickrud oh, not what i had in mind heh | 06:48 |

| inhell | dozens of those | 06:48 |
| Baby_Shambl3s | Claan22: you can nano to be able to edit or cat if you just want to see the contents of the text file | 06:48 |
| Fireal | aye...back to gutsy we go!!! | 06:48 |
| nickrud | Claan22 check that nautilus-open-terminal is installed | 06:48 |
| cool | inhell, please post your question in a single line, its easier to read | 06:48 |
| inhell | k... | 06:48 |

| Claan22 | nickrud: thanks, I'm installing it... though I don't think it's what I'm looking for... maybe those fiels were special terminal files or something | 06:50 |
| leo_rockw | Baby_Shambl3s: all the servers were packed yesterday, yup | 06:50 |
| nickrud | Claan22 some text files, if you double click them will ask if you want to run or edit them | 06:50 |
| banana21 | I am having a problem with samba after upgrading to 8.04, when I browse in Nautilus to a windows computer via "smb://192.168.1.2" it shows nothing, however if I manually type in a folder name like "smb://192.168.1.2/videos" it mounts just fine | 06:50 |
| Claan22 | nickrud:, yes that's what they were doing earlier. So it's only certain ones then | 06:50 |
| nickrud | Claan22 yes, executable ones | 06:50 |
| WGGMk | Is anyone else getting their CPU performance handed to them by Firefox 3??? | 06:51 |

| androver | how do you extract the preinstall/install/configure scripts from a deb file? | 06:51 |

| leo_rockw | WGGMk: i can't do anything for like ten seconds, every 5 minutes or so | 06:52 |
| cool | Guest39178, Hi do you need help? | 06:52 |
| nickrud | Claan22 try double clicking /usr/bin/compiz . No, extensions aren't used to identify scripts, the file will start with a shebang (#!) and the path to the program to run the script | 06:52 |
| Baby_Shambl3s | Claan22: are you trying to run text file or scripts, scripts tend to do that give you options to run, display etc while text files will open in text editor, your question was how to open text file in terminal which i said depends on the command nano or cat each have their porpuse | 06:52 |
| leo_rockw | WGGMk: i was going to report the bug later if it's not reported | 06:52 |
| leo_rockw | WGGMk: but you can do that now :-P | 06:52 |
| evand | Jiggah: Can you file a bug at http://launchpad.net/wubi/+filebug for the wubi bug you're encountering? | 06:52 |
| Claan22 | ah, thanks guys | 06:52 |
| WGGMk | leo_rockw: never reported a bug before, id rather leave it up to someone who can provide the appropriate info | 06:53 |
| lnewbie_ | WGGMK: yup; but flash stop crashing | 06:53 |
| leo_rockw | WGGMk: well, i never used FF before :-P | 06:53 |

| sam__ | sam | 06:53 |
| sam__ | im having issues with Ubuntu | 06:54 |
| sam__ | any super nerds here that want to help? | 06:54 |
| leo_rockw | WGGMk: i was going to report it tomorrow, i'm kinda busy atm | 06:54 |
| WGGMk | cool: I know that, but ive only been using Linux for a year, and i just dont trust my knowledge to get the appropriate info.. mainly id like to hide my n00bish status | 06:54 |
| WGGMk | leo_rockw: cool: ill take a look at the process and see about doing it later tonight | 06:54 |
| Baby_Shambl3s | !anybody | sam__ | 06:54 |
| ubotu | sam__: 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? | 06:54 |
| leo_rockw | WGGMk: it's not hard, really | 06:55 |
| Koheleth | I am trying xfce, whats so good about it? | 06:55 |
| leo_rockw | WGGMk: i've been using kubuntu for a year now too | 06:55 |
| androver | !anybody | androver | 06:55 |
| sam__ | my CPU fan is very loud in ubuntu (gutsty and hardy), when i run my XP partition its silent. Is there a way to fix this? | 06:55 |
| WGGMk | leo_rockw: you underestimate the power of the n00b | 06:55 |
| sam__ | its really obnoxious | 06:55 |
| leo_rockw | WGGMk: but i've been using gnu/linux for a longer time than that... | 06:55 |
| Baby_Shambl3s | Koheleth: xfce is just meant to be lighter than nautilus, whats good about it depends on the user and how much resources they can use | 06:56 |
| Koheleth | I see | 06:56 |
| androver | sam, just a guess, CPU scaling probably isn't working in ubuntu | 06:56 |
| Koheleth | Baby_Shambl3s, arnt you meant to be in jail? | 06:56 |
| sam__ | so does that mean my CPU is doing too much work? | 06:56 |
| Baby_Shambl3s | Koheleth: o_o dont spread it around | 06:57 |
| androver | kind of, yeah. lemme find you a reference that tells you how to fix it. | 06:57 |
| dmsuperman | Alright, I'm now backing up my full partition, excluding any extra data (such as /proc, /media, etc.) where are all the main places ubuntu uses for extra data that I can delete? For example, before backing up windows I would flush the temporary internet files, and the prefetch, to save room | 06:57 |
| androver | sam__: try this: http://www.arsgeek.com/?p=3344 | 06:57 |
| Claan22 | how do I use the 'make' command? the instructions I'm following say "It can be done by make, so only type in make into the console, when you are in the driver main directory. " I have the directory open in the file browser, then I switch to the terminal and type 'make', and it says that there's no target | 06:57 |
| androver | Claan22: you have to cd to that directory in the console first | 06:58 |
| Koheleth | prolly got net access in nick | 06:58 |
| Claan22 | androver: ah. how do I do that? | 06:58 |
| McGod | How do I create a startup script | 06:58 |
| unop | Claan22, you probably need to run ./configure first -- but do read the INSTALL/README file first, it varies from package to package | 06:58 |
| McGod | I need to startup my network | 06:58 |
| androver | just type "cd <directory here>"... | 06:58 |
| albech | does ubuntu support diskless install? booting from a nfs mount? | 06:58 |
| unop | albech, sure | 06:58 |
| androver | if you want to get to /usr/local/bin/foo, you type "cd /usr/local/bin/foo" | 06:58 |
| unop | without the quotes :) | 06:59 |
| OldSocks | I have a problem. I installed 8.04, and the only thing that makes me ticked off is I can't access my D:\ drive. I installed using Wubi, and I installed ubuntu onto my D drive. However when I boot up ubuntu, I can only access my C drive. Anyone know a fix? | 06:59 |
| Baby_Shambl3s | Claan22: it dont work like that you have to go into the directory using cli (command line) so it would be cd /"than directory path > once inside the director make wait for it to make and than sudo make install (make sure you have buil-essential installed) | 07:00 |
| Claan22 | YES it seems to be working, thanks guys | 07:00 |
| gooody | is there any way to edit icon settings in ubuntu gutsy? | 07:00 |
| Cpudan80 | OldSocks: you should be able to get at the D drive ehhh look in | 07:00 |
| androver | no prob | 07:00 |
| Cpudan80 | OldSocks: Err well is drive D a second partition on the first physical disk - or is it its own physical disk | 07:00 |
| cool | gooody, System>Preferences>Appearance | 07:00 |
| seamus7 | gooody you can install different icon sets in Appearances ... you change individual icons by right-clicking an app and choosing properties | 07:00 |
| OldSocks | Cpudan80: it is a second partition on my main disk. I was able to access D with 7, but with Hardy, I don't see it. | 07:01 |
| Baby_Shambl3s | Claan22: like unop said you might have to run ./configure first than make, you can also try make check just incase to see if you have all dependencies | 07:01 |
| sam__ | weird, i cant open CPU frequency scaling monitor in my taskbar | 07:01 |
| sam__ | how can i find it | 07:01 |
| Cpudan80 | OldSocks: Is it NTFS or FAT32 ? | 07:01 |
| OldSocks | Cpudan80: NTFS logical | 07:01 |
| Cpudan80 | OldSocks: brb - something is wrong with my client - gotta reboot it | 07:01 |
| unop | Claan22, it's always recommended you read the INSTALL/README files before making assumptions and running ./configure or make | 07:01 |
| led3234 | how do i install the propietery (sp?) drivers? | 07:01 |
| cool | sam__, you installed it? | 07:01 |
| Claan22 | how do I use ./configure? make is giving me 'error 2', so I figure that's the problem | 07:01 |
| androver | sam__: it doesn't show up when you right-click on the taskbar and say "add to panel"? | 07:01 |
| Pinky | whew, I finally got ubuntu 8.04 installed :) | 07:01 |
| Cpudan80 | Ok well that was odd | 07:02 |
| Claan22 | unop: I'm following instructions on the internet, they just tell me to make it | 07:02 |
| Baby_Shambl3s | OldSocks: your D drive is where ubuntu is? thats claled filesystem now and D:\ is only in winows ubutnu works differently | 07:02 |
| sam__ | add new item? | 07:02 |
| Cpudan80 | all my responses decided to be white | 07:02 |
| Cpudan80 | anyway | 07:02 |
| androver | it's called "add to panel" on mine, I'm on hardy. | 07:02 |
| Cpudan80 | OldSocks: So NTFS partition... ok.. so you should be able to hit it at /media/sdb I think | 07:02 |
| seamus7 | Any strong reason to do a fresh install rather than an upgrade? | 07:02 |
| OldSocks | Baby_Shambl3s: yea I know that, but I can't access my D drive, even though its called something else. | 07:02 |
| unop | Claan22, trust the instructions in the INSTALL file over anything else - they are probably more authoritative than anything else | 07:02 |
| cool | sam__, This would help --> http://www.ubuntugeek.com/howto-change-cpu-frequency-scaling-in-ubuntu.html | 07:02 |
| gooody | seamus7: i want to change the way my icon display in the desktop. i don't like the way pdf, images and other files displayed as thumbnails like on my desktop. | 07:03 |
| Daniel15 | Hi everyone... I just upgraded from Ubuntu 7.10 to 8.04 and keep getting "You are not allowed to access the system configuration" when I try to go to items in System -> Administration (eg. Networking) | 07:03 |
| OldSocks | Cpudan80: Hmm, I'll give it a try. Got to reboot into ubuntu. | 07:03 |
| Daniel15 | Any ideas how to fix that? | 07:03 |
| OldSocks | Thanks. | 07:03 |
| oddalot | ahhh...here is the problem "checking whether build environment is sane... yes " <--lol, this should say no | 07:03 |
| Baby_Shambl3s | Claan22: first thing you need to do is go into the folder and check Readme file and Install file if it is provided or go to the site and check documentations to see which commands you need, have you even got a compiler? | 07:03 |
| cool | gooody, you can find more eye candy on gnome-look.org | 07:03 |
| Cpudan80 | OldSocks: It might not be automatically mounted, if that's the case - come back and we can walk through it | 07:03 |
| seamus7 | gooody how would you like your icons to appear? | 07:03 |
| Koheleth | xfce programs hide behind the tool bar, anyway to make it rest at the top of the tool bar like in a mac | 07:03 |
| OldSocks | cpudan80: alright thanks. I'll reboot now. | 07:03 |
| gooody | seamus7: just like pdf licons like in windows | 07:04 |
| sam__ | when i right click on my panel i dont get those options | 07:04 |
| Baby_Shambl3s | OldSocks: in windows you wont be able to access d:\ as it is in linux partition m$ windows wont read it but ubuntu will read windows and other partitions | 07:04 |
| sam__ | is it because im using Xubuntu? | 07:04 |
| androver | sam: yup, that's it. | 07:04 |
| Claan22 | baby_shambl3s: there's a readme, but it doesn't explain installation at all. there's no install file. I don't know if I have a compiler. I'm following instructions here: http://rtl-wifi.sourceforge.net/wiki/Installing which I guess it the website | 07:04 |
| gooody | seamus7: the default setting consumes a lot of space on my desktop | 07:04 |
| oddalot | w00t, i think it's compiling....IT"S ALIVE | 07:04 |
| androver | you'll have to do CPU scaling some other way. | 07:04 |
| seamus7 | gooody you don't want the icons to preview their content ... you just want the pdf symbol to appear as the icon? | 07:05 |
| Daniel15 | gooody, you just want normal icons to appear, and not the preview? Go to a folder and click Edit ->Preferences, change the "Show thumbnails" item on the Preview tab. | 07:05 |
| gooody | seamus7: yes | 07:05 |
| koomber1664 | um, how do I get my waste bin back on a panel? | 07:05 |
| sam__ | damn xfce | 07:05 |
| seamus7 | gooody read what Daniel15 wrote | 07:05 |
| oddalot | koomber right click, add to panel | 07:06 |
| oddalot | i had to restart once | 07:06 |
| oddalot | maybe it's a bug | 07:06 |
| Daniel15 | Can anyone help with my problem? I just upgraded from Ubuntu 7.10 to 8.04 and keep getting "You are not allowed to access the system configuration" when I try to go to items in System -> Administration (eg. Networking) | 07:06 |
| seamus7 | Daniel15 did you Unlock the window? | 07:06 |
| === co_macho is now known as fatur | ||

| DON^SRK | Hi Alls...Pls tell me how can i use paltalk on ubuntu ? | 07:06 |
| gooody | thanks guys. it works. | 07:07 |
| Daniel15 | seamus7, what do you mean? I just click that option in the menu and that error pops up. The network config doesn't even load. | 07:07 |
| sam__ | Intel Celeron (its probably 4 years old or so) | 07:07 |
| seamus7 | Daniel15 are you set up as the administrator ... your username that is? | 07:07 |
| sam__ | HP Computer (if thats what u wanted to know) | 07:07 |
| Baby_Shambl3s | Claan22: its quite straight forward i think first two commands as I believe you did get the latest stable drive for you oyu cna even use command locate i.e. locate /lib/modules/`uname -r` -name ieee80211 | 07:08 |
| Baby_Shambl3s | OldSocks: your D drive is where ubuntu is? thats claled filesystem now and D:\ is only in winows ubutnu works differently /lib/modules/`uname -r` -name ieee80211 | 07:08 |
| Daniel15 | Yeah, it worked fine in Ubuntu 7.10, but hasn't worked since I updated to 8.04 | 07:08 |
| androver | ok, 2 suggestions. first, apt-get install cpudyn. if that doesn't help, apt-get install cpufreqd and google "cpufreqd" to configure it. | 07:08 |
| seamus7 | Daniel15 look in UsersandGroups and see what privileges your username has? | 07:08 |
| oddalot | awww man still didn't work | 07:09 |
| MrRoboto | how can I save my external drive, it is not being recognized by ubuntu!!!! ?? | 07:09 |
| Daniel15 | seamus7, I can't access that, same error :S | 07:09 |
| seamus7 | Daniel15 do you have another username you can login as? | 07:09 |
| Baby_Shambl3s | Claan22: its quite straight forward i think first two commands as I believe you did get the latest stable drive for you if you follow that it should work easily | 07:09 |
| Daniel15 | seamus7, I'll try to run it from a terminal and see if there's any output | 07:09 |
| Daniel15 | Nope, no other users | 07:09 |

| ubotu | PulseAudio is a sound server intended as a drop-in replacement for !ESD - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio for information and installation instructions | 07:16 |
| arvind_khadri | dakz0rz, did you google | 07:16 |
| Starnestommy | DON^SRK: I think that you may need to use paltalk in wine | 07:16 |
| arvind_khadri | !wifi > pisca | 07:16 |
| leo_rockw | forevertheuni: o/ | 07:16 |
| sam__ | i just installed cpudyn but how do I open it? | 07:16 |
| dakz0rz | i went through the trouble shooting docs provided in ubuntu | 07:16 |
| derspankster | jaffarkelshac: I know of no way to assign a static IP to a wireless connection | 07:16 |
| cool | MrRoboto, I said it *might*, as I/O error, is pretty serious stuff. try on another machine | 07:16 |
| arvind_khadri | sam__, type the name in the terminal | 07:16 |
| Kyle__ | derspankster: ifconfig wlan0 whatever :p | 07:17 |
| sam__ | i did that | 07:17 |
| Omlette | But there is a way, jaffarkelshac. | 07:17 |
| sam__ | but it said Command not found | 07:17 |
| leo_rockw | jaffarkelshac: i do it through my router. i tell it to always assign the same ip to the same mac address | 07:17 |
| unimatrix9 | hello all | 07:17 |
| cool | sam__, i gave you the link, did you try that? | 07:17 |
| Kyle__ | actually network manager might get in the way, but meh | 07:17 |

| Daniel15 | I can't seem to fix this problem >_< | 07:18 |
| cool | MrRoboto, what make it is? | 07:18 |
| jaffarkelshac | Omlette, i would like to know this way | 07:18 |
| cool | sam__, try ubuntuguide.org | 07:18 |
| leo_rockw | jaffarkelshac: ugh... | 07:18 |
| androver | sam, it should "just work" | 07:18 |
| sam__ | its not for some reason | 07:19 |
| androver | it installs itself as a startup script. to start it, do /etc/init.d/cpudyn start | 07:19 |
| MrRoboto | cool: it's a fujitsu ... sata I think , in NTFS | 07:19 |
| androver | as root | 07:19 |
| androver | but the installer should have started it | 07:19 |
| jaffarkelshac | this aspect is very difficult to configure compared to xp leo_rockw | 07:19 |
| cool | MrRoboto, Check on manufacturer site, else buy a new one :P | 07:20 |
| seamus7 | Daniel15 have you tried this ... when booting up go into recover mode then type visudo and add yourself to the users | 07:20 |

| DaBonBon | OberonKing: why can't you burn? | 07:26 |
| dmsuperman | DaBonBon, so feel lucky you even get results :D | 07:26 |
| WGGMk | GirlRiver: did you use the restricted drivers manager to install the drivers for the nVidia card? | 07:26 |
| DaBonBon | dmsuperman: i guess you've got a corrupted local package cache | 07:26 |
| cool | GirlRiver, does "glxinfo | grep rendering" says YES? | 07:26 |
| prettyricky | is there a manager for it> Dont see it? | 07:26 |
| arvind_khadri | zeno, gksu gedit $PATH | 07:26 |

| zeno | arvind_khadri: will that work every time i reboot? | 07:27 |

| GirlRiver | cool: yes it does say "Yes" | 07:27 |
| sam__ | i am about to | 07:27 |
| Birkemark | Can any one help an newbie with sound ??? | 07:27 |
| sam__ | its so annoying | 07:27 |

| cool | GirlRiver, try nvidia-settings | 07:28 |
| oddalot | pwnt | 07:28 |
| cool | !sound | Birkemark | 07:28 |
| OberonKing | DaBonBon, maybe some problems with dma I think...... start in Feisty when turn ide device to sata device... wait, I paste a log | 07:28 |
| ubotu | Birkemark: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer).

| arvind_khadri | zeno, and to clean the cache its sudo apt-get autoclean | 07:28 |
| GirlRiver | ok, thanks all .. I will try nvidia settings | 07:28 |
| dmsuperman | zeno, still doesn't work | 07:28 |

| guitarj1d | after upgrading to hardy my ati driver isn't working properly, i get the following error when trying to change the resolution, "The X Server does not support the XRandR extension.", can anyone help | 07:30 |
| dmsuperman | zeno, I'm talkin here aren't I? ;) and yeah, I haven't modified a single thing in my settings as far as aptitutd | 07:30 |
| WGGMk | prettyricky: System > Accessories > Apperance --> Visual Effects tab will let you adjust the settings.. but if you want full control you need to install compizconfig-settings-manager... the reason this package is not installed by default is because if your not carefull you can seriously hinder your system | 07:30 |

| zeno | wierd | 07:32 |

| OldSocks | LainIwakura: May I ask how that can be done? | 07:41 |

| gooody | how can i disable desktop from automatically displaying my local drive and usb flashdrive when i plug or open it? | 07:44 |
| dmsuperman | Alright I've figured that it's bzip2. Why is that my tar files using command "tar cvpjf /media/sdb2/backups/test.tar.bz2 /home/dmsuperman/.mozilla/" result in 0 byte bz2 files, but when I change them to gzip it works just fine? In both case it runs through all the files and processes them anyway, and I do have bzip2 installed | 07:44 |
| suseJ | peddy you killed X first b4 installing | 07:44 |

| arvind_khadri | guitarj1d, here you need to paste /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libdri.a | 07:45 |
| LainIwakura | OldSocks: Use gedit /etc/fstab which is easier | 07:46 |
| arvind_khadri | guitarj1d, i mean /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/ | 07:46 |
| LainIwakura | OldSocks: then select all, copy, then paste into that website | 07:46 |

| arvind_khadri | Ardin, that channel is closed | 08:05 |
| whirlybird20 | roxer, someone else here will probably find out why it hangs, but if you do need to re boot then try ctr+alt+backspace | 08:05 |

| enry183 | can i download an iso for wubi? | 08:06 |
| whirlybird20 | yes | 08:06 |

| whirlybird20 | oh | 08:06 |
| Vertelemming | Upgraded from Gutsy, having a very odd problem where new windows (menu, keyboard shortcut or application generated) always go just below the top-most window, and don't grab the focus. It seems to be intermittent, because it stopped happening for a while, but comes back on reboot. Any clues? | 08:06 |
| enry183 | wubi is too slow to download one by itself | 08:06 |
| Peddy | cool: no, it says Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0". | 08:06 |
| Peddy | cool: a couple of times | 08:07 |
| grumbel | How can I find out what trackerd is currently doing and if it is working at all? tracker-search gives me currently an error msg and trackerd is using 100% for the second day now | 08:07 |

| Vertelemming | As far as I know, no configuration has been changed, but I can't find where in the preferences such a setting would be, anyway. | 08:07 |
| openuser | hi, I have currently turned off acpi and apic, how can i enable it??? | 08:07 |
| Peddy | cool: well, the nvidia driver is | 08:07 |
| Ardin | ok, usenet question: hellanzb works for downloading nzb files, and pan works for downloading the actual newsgroups.. problem is, i cant make them work at the same time. pan is trying to connect from some other ip address or something... i think its trying to use a proxy or something. i know its not hellanzb, simply because it works fine when thunderbird is getting the newsgroups | 08:07 |
| cool | Peddy, i said not *correctly* installed | 08:07 |
| arvind_khadri | guitarj1d, ok ,continue with the other packages | 08:07 |
| guitarj1d | install all restricted modules? | 08:08 |
| cool | root_newbie, increase number of workspaces | 08:08 |

| Peddy | cool: ;) | 08:08 |
| pengo | my gnome-panel has disappeared. if i kill it (in a terminal, it respawns, but still can't see it | 08:08 |
| whirlybird20 | roxer,Does it just hang randomly or is it when you do a certain thing? | 08:08 |
| cool | Peddy, really, i have grown old then :| | 08:08 |
| Vertelemming | Peddy: Check /etc/X11/xorg.conf and see if there's a `Load "glx"` line anywhere in there. | 08:08 |
| Roxer | whirlybird20: No | 08:08 |
| androver | Shadow_X, can you paste the exact command that you tried in here? the mount -t command? | 08:08 |
| Peddy | Vertelemming: yes there is | 08:08 |
| Roxer | whirlybird20: can be whenever this night i did hang when i did nothing | 08:08 |
| pengo | all i did was "unlock" the rubbish bin in the corner | 08:08 |
| JKirk_ | wow...seems like a lot of menu items from beta aren't there in the release...can anyone help me find the file sharing menu item? | 08:09 |
| Peddy | cool: I've reinstalled numerous times from nVidia's site and restricted drivers, as well as envy | 08:09 |
| madma1 | hi all | 08:09 |
| guitarj1d | arvind_khadri: install all restricted modules? | 08:09 |
| cool | Peddy, Please post your xorg.conf | 08:09 |
| Vertelemming | Peddy: Then your best bet is to check /var/log/Xorg.0.log and see if there are any useful error messages. | 08:09 |
| Shadow_X | sudo mount -t smbfs -o username=cedwards,password=******* //192.168.1.30 /media/ShadowServ | 08:09 |
| arvind_khadri | guitarj1d, hmm yeah | 08:09 |
| kade2 | if i download and burn to cd, will there be an option to upgrade (since it's not working through update manager) ? will this strip my files? | 08:09 |
| whirlybird20 | I don't know that I can help. Sorry maybe someone else can come up with a solution | 08:09 |
| JKirk_ | shadow: thanks...but it was so easy with the menu item...where'd it go? | 08:09 |
| androver | Shadow_X, and the message it returned? | 08:10 |
| dcraig | hi, is there a straightforward way to "downgrade" from the desktop version to the server version of ubuntu? | 08:10 |
| ocean | charly | 08:10 |
| Peddy | cool: ok, hold on | 08:10 |
| ocean | salu | 08:10 |
| Shadow_X | This command is designed to be run from within /bin/mount by giving | 08:10 |
| Shadow_X | the option '-t smbfs'. For example: mount -t smbfs -o username=tridge,password=foobar //fjall/test /data/test | 08:10 |
| Ardin | Shadow_X: did you install the samba client stuff? | 08:10 |
| Shadow_X | yes | 08:10 |
| Peddy | Vertelemming: the only useful info I can find is this: http://pastebin.ca/998167 | 08:10 |
| Shadow_X | it was already installed in ubuntu | 08:10 |
| arvind_khadri | guitarj1d, pertaining to your kernel | 08:11 |

| prettyricky | Does frostwire work on 8.04 cause I cant get it to work on my computer | 08:12 |

| arvind_khadri | gooody, sudo apt-get install kde | 08:13 |
| JKirk_ | also, I've got a IBM T40 laptop and I can't seem to use XORG 3D effects... anyone know where I could find a driver? | 08:13 |

| ferris | ok, so after upgrading to hardy, my wifi doesn't work. This is on a laptop Compaq Presario C500 with the Broadcom wifi. It uses the R151517.EXE drivers.

| ubotu | Xubuntu is Ubuntu with Xfce instead of !GNOME. More info at http://www.xubuntu.org and http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/ - To install from Ubuntu: « sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop » - Join #xubuntu for support - See also: !Ubuntu and !Xubuntu-Channels | 08:15 |
| Peddy | Vertelemming: I've tried that, but to no avail. Also, here's my xorg.conf: http://pastebin.ca/998172 | 08:15 |

| nick_ | arvind_khadri: son't understand, ive got the txt file loaded | 08:21 |
| bluefox83 | Shadow_X, i know someone who lives in ohio that uses that exact nickname, he's an old friend of mine | 08:21 |

| phreakv6 | joe_ ... same prob but with ATI after hardy upgrade for me | 08:49 |
| Taejo | androver, this looks wrong: -rw------- 1 root lp 458752 2007-11-02 13:21 /var/cache/cups/ppds.dat | 08:49 |
| joe_ | merlin_: yep | 08:50 |
| Kr0ntab | Narshil: hehe thats just a matter of practice.. :-P btw... is there a reason you tried ndiswrapper to begin with? iwl is the default.. and typically works out the gate. is it still not working? | 08:50 |

| merlin_ | problem is im wireless so the installer cant download what it needs | 08:51 |
| Kr0ntab | Narshil: ok ok.. I see. well iwl is actually a decent driver and works fairly well... what security on the ap do you use. | 08:51 |
| joe_ | God I never thought I would say this, I miss dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 08:51 |
| Kr0ntab | ? | 08:51 |
| ferris_ | bluefox83, interesting... I think swift fox is firefox with the swifter-firefox-plugin | 08:51 |
| prettyricky | androver=== I did the sudo gedit /etc/x11/xorg.conf | 08:51 |
| astro76 | MagoonD: look in /media | 08:51 |
| phreakv6 | /msg nickserv set unfiltered on | 08:51 |
| GirlRiver | arvind_khadri: do I have to stop GDM for that ? or what is the command | 08:51 |

| ferris_ | bluefox83, still it is faster than firefox with out the plugin | 08:51 |
| astro76 | prettyricky: and /etc/X11 | 08:51 |
| bluefox83 | ferris_, it's compiled for your specific processor, and it prolly does have some of the same features as that plugin | 08:51 |
| MagoonD | astro76, thanks man | 08:52 |
| androver | arvind_khadri: I always use sudo...why is gksu better? | 08:52 |
| arvind_khadri | GirlRiver, no need to stop GDM do this sudo dpkg -reconfigure xserver-xorg | 08:52 |
| astro76 | androver: gksu for X (graphical) apps | 08:52 |
| joe_ | So has anyone gotten their nvidia 8000 series cards to work with Hardy | 08:52 |
| merlin_ | hell....today is my first time with linux, decided to do dual boot...killed my linux by bein stupid....then screwed up the bootsector...and while trying to fix it corrupted my windows | 08:52 |
| astro76 | !gksu | androver | 08:52 |
| ubotu | androver: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 08:52 |
| arvind_khadri | androver, gksu should be used with X11 apps | 08:52 |
| MagoonD | how do i bring up the text editor from the terminal? | 08:52 |
| androver | thanks, i'm gonna read that link | 08:52 |

| JKirk_ | ok ...if no one can help with drive sharing, can someone help with proprietary drivers for a IBM T40 laptop? | 08:55 |
| ompaul | JKirk_, people answer when they know or are not busy there are no obligations on anyone to help but they try | 08:55 |
| nick_ | arvind_khadri: IS there a website for looking for programs like that | 08:55 |
| arvind_khadri | GirlRiver, ok just a min | 08:55 |
| androver | MrRoboto - sometimes you can recover a hard drive for long enough to get some files off of it by sticking it in the freezer for a while and then plugging it back in. sometimes. | 08:55 |
| joe_ | merlin_: by the way, if you type joe_: it will highlight the text for me when you are talking to me | 08:55 |

| GT | Oh, that was it. | 08:57 |
| MrRoboto | androver: even though, it's still spinning ...and it kinda shows in Computer "USB Drive" but it won't mount, and it says I/O Error | 08:57 |
| joe_ | merlin_: and then look for the source code they want | 08:57 |
| magnetron | Repsa_Jih: some sort of rsync, i would say | 08:57 |
| joe_ | merlin_: then right click and mark it for installation, then click apply | 08:57 |
| Kr0ntab | Narshil_: hrm.... lets get in a pm... this scrolling is rough | 08:57 |
| Narshil_ | Kr0ntab:lol true, k | 08:58 |
| bvk | hi, is there a way to install .debs into $HOME of non-root users ? | 08:58 |
| androver | MrRoboto: it depends on what kind of errors you're getting. it works if your hard drive is clicking. paste some dmesg output into a pastebin and i'll look at it. | 08:58 |
| joe_ | merlin_: then read the last error code when you do the sudo sh nvidia* | 08:58 |
| Taejo | androver, now I've got http://pastebin.com/d7166f93c | 08:58 |
| joe_ | merlin_: it will tell you how to tell it where the file is, there is some syntax I forget | 08:58 |
| joe_ | merlin_: and after all of that, it still won't work | 08:58 |
| cute_bettong | how do i upgrade from 5.04 to whatever is current? | 08:58 |

| ferris_ | JKirk, if you right click on your /home/username and choose share, you can do it, but I do not have samba configured, so you will have to do that | 09:04 |

| GT | I can't beleive they'd just leave us hanging on resolution like this! | 09:04 |
| GT | What're we supposed to do?! >.< | 09:04 |
| orudie_ | i have successfully updated my 7.10 server to 8.04 server everything seem to work the way its supposed to | 09:04 |
| ferris_ | JKirk, but you should have the rights to do it | 09:04 |
| arvind_khadri | IndyGunFreak, aah sorry thought you wanted to know about it ,am not following here much :) | 09:04 |

| Dr_willis | joe_, i just installed the 'nvidia-glx-new' package and my 8800gtsxxx worked fine. | 09:04 |
| cute_bettong | i don't understand how to do that | 09:04 |
| IndyGunFreak | arvind_khadri: np | 09:04 |
| IndyGunFreak | cute_bettong: don't understand how to do what? | 09:04 |
| joe_ | Dr_willis: tell me more, how did you do it? through synaptic or envyng? | 09:05 |
| astro76 | orudie_: congrats, that's how it usually goes despite the impression you'd get watching this channel ;) | 09:05 |
| Dr_willis | joe_, its in the normal repos/packages.. a simple apt-get install got it. | 09:05 |
| joe_ | Dr_willis: Also, are you actually using the nvidia driver and not the nv driver? | 09:05 |
| Dr_willis | joe_, i have NEVER needed to use envy. | 09:05 |
| nick_ | i don;t get it a | 09:05 |
| Dr_willis | joe_, I see the nvidia logo when X starts up, so its using nvidia. | 09:05 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | icesword: ever tried burning an audio disc project with brasero, and files are "loading" but nothing else happens? | 09:05 |
| nick_ | Whats the diff between gnome and linux | 09:05 |
| IndyGunFreak | Dr_willis: lol, the fact they put envy in the repos now scares me | 09:06 |
| IndyGunFreak | brb | 09:06 |
| martin_ | HI | 09:06 |
| icesword | ubuntung-pinoy, hmm, no | 09:06 |
| arvind_khadri | nick_, gnome is desktop enviroment | 09:06 |
| astro76 | nick_: Linux is the kernel of the system, gnome is a desktop environment which runs on Linux | 09:06 |
| yoyoo | hiii | 09:06 |
| Dr_willis | joe_, you might also want to install the nvidia config tools to allow for tweaking the thing a bit. | 09:06 |
| Dr_willis | IndyGunFreak, perhaps NOW the thing will get bugs and security issues fixed. :) | 09:06 |
| joe_ | Dr_willis: lemme try that | 09:06 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | icesword: would u know what to do if u did? | 09:06 |
| nick_ | so is ubuntu a gnome | 09:06 |
| toplok | someone using 8.04 ? | 09:07 |
| martin_ | I get an error while trying to upgrade to 8.04 from cd | 09:07 |

| newscane | i'm having a problem: just added an additional HD, and now i can't get my computer to properly boot | 09:07 |
| icesword | ubuntung-pinoy, -----> google may help you | 09:07 |
| astro76 | nick_: yeah the default desktop in Ubuntu is Gnome ;) | 09:07 |
| toplok | couuld you please pastebin your menu.lst ? thanks | 09:07 |
| orudie_ | yeah i just updated from 7.10 to 8.04 server with no problems at all | 09:07 |

| martin_ | First, it does not appear the Upgrade menu | 09:07 |
| nick_ | so what are andrake and all taht | 09:07 |
| newscane | ubuntu is installed on an IDE drive, attached to an IDE controller | 09:07 |
| * arvind_khadri asta-la-vista | 09:08 | |
| ubuntung-pinoy | icesword: it should, shouldn't it.. prob is it's not :-/ | 09:08 |
| toplok | I am having all kind of troubles from 7.10 to 8.04 | 09:08 |
| martin_ | I've tried to force it to install using the command gksu "sh /cdrom..." | 09:08 |
| Dr_willis | nick_, the desktop is easyally changed. Some disrtos default to gnome, some default to kde, others default to.. well others.. | 09:08 |
| newscane | new drive is a 500 gig sata, attached to a sata controller, which i know linux has recognized (showed up in lspci) | 09:08 |
| joe_ | Dr_willis: nvidia-cg-toolkit? | 09:08 |
| martin_ | But it was useless | 09:08 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | toplok: info on that error would help | 09:08 |
| ferris_ | toplok, i don't know how to do that, but I am sure others will send it to you... | 09:08 |
| jintxo | Hello there. Was woindering if somebody knew a way of making ubuntu (8.04) not use compiz and just use metacity. I have "No desktop effects" selected but it's still running compiz and gtk-window-decorator. cheers :-) | 09:08 |
| Dr_willis | joe_, nope. thats not it. :) i did need that tool for somthing.. but thats not the nvidia-xconfig tool | 09:08 |
| nick_ | d_wills: don;t understand o well | 09:08 |
| toplok | please pastebin /boot/grub/menu.lst, thanks | 09:08 |
| newscane | now, it goes through bios, shows the first controller, the drive, second controller, the drive, splash screen again, and then i get a blinking cursor. | 09:08 |

| orudie | newscane, maybe your computer is trying to bood from the 500 gig | 09:10 |
| toplok | the desktop effects are gone | 09:10 |
| razel | anyone who knows more about wireless?? :( | 09:10 |
| Dr_willis | joe_, i dont knwo about that. I installed all 3 at the exact same time. and this was a few weeks ago. | 09:10 |

| guest59 | Hello,I installed the new xubuntu 8.04 on an old machine. Everything works well, except shutdown doesn't work: The computer doesn't turn off completely, it always hangs when the progress bar is down. | 09:12 |
| newscane | overall boot order is cd > removable media > hd > network | 09:12 |
| androver | razel: ok, that makes sense, what's wrong with the wireless? does it show up under ifconfig? | 09:12 |
| newscane | within HD, it's add-on cards > IDE > sata | 09:12 |
| joe_ | Dr_willis: Ok, I have all three installed, and when I run nvidia-xconfig all it gives me is a corepointer error for the keyboard and mouse | 09:12 |
| orudie | newscane, i'm not too sure, but there is a chance you should configure grub boot loader | 09:12 |
| simplexio | newscane: where did you but that grub | 09:12 |
| newscane | grub is on the IDE drive | 09:12 |
| newscane | it boots fine when i unplug the sata drive | 09:13 |
| ditya | l,l,l,l,;, | 09:13 |
| simplexio | newscane: then it should be first | 09:13 |
| jhaarman | how to check which version a package is (apt commandline) | 09:13 |
| ferris_ | toplok, this is from a dual boot system so be sure to edit what you don't need out of it | 09:13 |

| icesword | jhaarman, apt-cache show package | 09:13 |
| simplexio | newscane: do you have anything linux related stuff on sata ? | 09:13 |
| newscane | it is before the sata card... | 09:13 |
| razel | androver: i typed ifconfig and what should i look? | 09:13 |
| newscane | sata is a brand new drive, fresh out of the box | 09:14 |

| Tidus | sorry about that guys... had to refresh my nick list and forgot to part most of my channels | 09:14 |
| Dr_willis | joe_, I dident have that issue. if you just installed the nvidia-glx drivers. You 'should' be able to restart the X server and it 'should' see the nvidia card and start using it. You MIGHT have to enable it in the restricted-managers tool | 09:14 |

| hangthedj | when i uninstall it, it uninstalls ubuntu-desktop and firefox, reinstalling these two automatically installs firefox-3 | 09:15 |
| orudie | newscane, are you getting any errors ? what is exactly happening when you connect your new sata drive ? | 09:15 |
| newscane | with the sata drive in, this is what i get as i boot: | 09:15 |
| IndyGunFreak | hangthedj: it doesn't remove ubuntu desktop.. thats just a meta-ackage | 09:15 |
| simplexio | newscane: does it boot from livecd ? | 09:15 |
| astro76 | hangthedj: you can apt-get install firefox-2 | 09:15 |

| IndyGunFreak | not very smart. | 09:16 |
| androver | ubuntu: so reinstall it? | 09:16 |

| jhaarman | ubuntu_ on wiki is info on that | 09:16 |
| hangthedj | it says firefox-2 is already the newest version, and if i run firefox-2 it loads firefox-3 beta 5 | 09:16 |

| ferris_ | IndyGunFreak, my install was horrible.... well, the install on two machines were flawless on 8.04, but the configuring the wireless took me about 20 minutes, after I pulled my head out of a dark place.... on the old pc, no problems at all. | 09:17 |
| Dr_willis | hangthedj, i had that issue for a while also.. then it fixed itself.. | 09:17 |
| razel | androver: im using a wired internet right now... | 09:17 |
| rothchild | I've got a borked install of msttcorefonts that I can't seem to get rid of or fix can anyone help? | 09:17 |
| hangthedj | Dr_willis, how did it fix itself? | 09:17 |
| newscane | orudie: i get the gateway splash, then it recognizes the IDE card and the IDE drive, then the sata card and the sata drive, then a blinking cursor. it also made some drive noises (sounded like the floppy and the ZIP drive going). no error msg | 09:17 |
| IndyGunFreak | ferris_: hmm, mine was fairly smooth on my PC and Laptop.... i set my wireless up the same way I did in gutsy(with a madwifi patch because my device gets misdetected). | 09:17 |
| androver | razel: i need you to tell me the URL that the pastebin gave you for what you pasted | 09:17 |
| guest59 | Androver: I'll try. Please wait a moment. | 09:17 |
| Dr_willis | hangthedj, it just started working. :) its working now for me here.. | 09:17 |
| IndyGunFreak | actually, i don't think i had any problems on either machine..lol | 09:18 |
| hangthedj | ok, i'll wait it out :p, thanks. | 09:18 |
| orudie | newscane, and then what? | 09:18 |
| joe_ | Dr_willis: No dice, it started back with nv drivers | 09:18 |
| hangthedj | haha | 09:18 |
| tcpdumpgod | XMMS1 isnt in Hardy? | 09:18 |
| Dr_willis | hangthedj, just ran firefox-2 and its running the older firefox. | 09:18 |
| tcpdumpgod | Only XMMS2? | 09:18 |
| orudie | newscane, freeze ? | 09:18 |
| pclynch | anyone have any knowledge about adding the boot option for xp in ubuntu grub? | 09:18 |
| newscane | simplexio -- i have not tried to boot right off the cd, with the sata drive plugged in. booting w/ the CD in, and then choosing "boot from hard drive" gives the blinking cursor | 09:18 |
| Dr_willis | joe_, check the restricted-manager tool, be sure you have 'use nvidia' checked. | 09:18 |
| razel | androver: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64476/ | 09:18 |
| hangthedj | Dr_willis, it looks like it just fixed itself ;) | 09:18 |
| newscane | orudie: nothing happens. it just blinks. | 09:18 |
| nick_ | is 8.04 lts good im upgading to it | 09:18 |
| Dr_willis | hangthedj, ! how did it do that! :0 heh heh... | 09:18 |
| rothchild | the output is here http://pastebin.ca/998196 | 09:18 |
| simplexio | newscane: try it.. connect sata and boot from livecd | 09:18 |
| Dr_willis | nick_, you will have to try it and decide for yourself I guess. :) | 09:19 |
| hardy-wtf | this live cd is making my lcd monitor black out like every three seconds what do i do about it? | 09:19 |
| newscane | brb.. lemme try | 09:19 |
| joe_ | Dr_willis: System > Hardware drivers? | 09:19 |
| androver | razel: ok, so the wireless card isn't showing up under ifconfig. what kind of computer do you have? make and model? | 09:19 |
| hangthedj | running firefox-2 runs firefox-3, but if you launch it from the internet menu it runs firefox-2 | 09:19 |
| nick_ | dr_wills: ok only been on 7 for about 2 days | 09:19 |
| IndyGunFreak | i don't like Firefox's new download manager.. the old one was better(when doing multiple downloads) | 09:19 |
| joe_ | Dr_willis: I used to have restricted drivers as an option, but its gone now | 09:19 |
| rothchild | I think it's because I had privoxy installed but I don't any more | 09:19 |
| Dr_willis | joe_, no idea. Im not using gnome.. and i dont have the menus memorized | 09:19 |
| monkeybritches | hardy-wtf: Is it the screensaver? | 09:19 |
| orudie | newscane, does the grub boot loader shows up ? | 09:19 |
| nick_ | wheres somewhere i can look at all the gnome software | 09:19 |
| razel | androver: i have a dell inspiron 1525 | 09:19 |
| hardy-wtf | let me turn it off and see | 09:20 |
| pclynch | can anyone help me with grub boot manager? | 09:20 |
| rothchild | nick_ how about packages.ubuntu.com | 09:20 |

| razel | androver: i have a dell inspiron 1525 laptop | 09:20 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | anyone know what to make of this? audio/x-asf-unknown decoder plugin | 09:20 |
| orudie | newscane, my guess is that you have to try and get the grub configured for this new hard drive and for your system hard drive | 09:20 |
| acidicbase | anyone have a detailed changelog for 8.0.4 release? | 09:20 |
| hardy-wtf | no it is not the screensaver | 09:21 |
| androver | razel: follow these directions: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Feisty_No-Fluff#head-d8ce0e35a4ccdbeddd6cf36f9cb23a11d8e0e9dc | 09:21 |
| ferris_ | IndyGunFreak, they were both smooth. I was impressed that it was the easiest installs ever. I have literally installed over 1000 times. From win95 to vista, BeOs, RH, GENTOO, Debian (many versions of it) but Ubuntu 8.04 was incredibly easy. I thought they did a particularly nice job on the manual partitioner | 09:21 |
| hardy-wtf | i can duplicate it | 09:21 |
| timandtom | 8.04 isn't recognizing my wireless card automagically and giving me the option to install the drivers like 7.10 did. How do I find/install drivers for it? They're restricted drives. Wireless card is: Broadcom Corporation BCM4401-B0 100Base-TX (rev 02) | 09:21 |

| pclynch | cvd-pr, have you tried different players? | 09:23 |
| IndyGunFreak | ferris_: hmm, hadn't thought of swiftfox | 09:23 |

| rothchild | can anyone help with a borked msttcorefonts install there's more info here http://pastebin.ca/998196 | 09:23 |

| monkeybritches | I think many of us are experiencing some pain at the moment | 09:24 |
| IndyGunFreak | ferris_: is it still th beta, or based on 2.0.whatever was stable? | 09:24 |
| pclynch | cvd-pr: can you describe the problem better? | 09:24 |
| Taejo | androver, restarting seems to have cleared the authentication error, now I just have "[Job 151] No %%BoundingBox: comment in header!" | 09:24 |
| monkeybritches | nick_: I assume those are official projects, but there's sure to be many other unofficial ones | 09:24 |
| newscane | ok, booting from livecd now... | 09:24 |
| IndyGunFreak | ferris_: and where did you get it, i don't see it in the repos, or does it need compiled? | 09:24 |
| hardy-wtf | is there a way i can install from the internet? | 09:24 |
| razel | androver: this page ->http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64476/? | 09:24 |
| hardy-wtf | from the live cd? | 09:24 |
| cvd-pr | pclynch, the video can't keep the standard framerate | 09:24 |
| rothchild | timandtom have you enabled the additional repos with the restricted bits? | 09:24 |
| hardy-wtf | maybe i have a scratch on this disk | 09:24 |
| androver | razel: this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Feisty_No-Fluff#head-d8ce0e35a4ccdbeddd6cf36f9cb23a11d8e0e9dc | 09:24 |
| newscane | putting the ide card explicitly as the first option in hard drive booting changed nothing | 09:25 |
| Dr_willis | hardy-wtf, i think theres a very minimal net-isntall cd you can get.. but the server load will make that a bit slow. | 09:25 |
| ferris_ | IndyGunFreak, you can get it through spm, but you have to add the repos. | 09:25 |
| nano_ | quick question: are the *.iso images of ubuntu "bootable images" | 09:25 |
| steel_lady | Hi! Can somebody suggest me a program where I can put a lot of links and tell it to start downloading four of them, when one finishes, to start with the next one etc...? | 09:25 |
| hardy-wtf | hmm | 09:25 |
| ferris_ | i can give you the repos in a sec | 09:25 |
| IndyGunFreak | ferret: spm? got a link | 09:25 |
| astro76 | nano_: yes | 09:25 |
| rothchild | nano_ yes they are | 09:25 |
| nano_ | thanx!!! | 09:25 |
| hardy-wtf | i am out of cd's | 09:25 |
| cvd-pr | pclynch, jumpy DVD playback | 09:25 |
| nano_ | so i guess i just need to do a "write to cd" | 09:25 |
| hardy-wtf | i wish i could just switch to net from here | 09:25 |
| GT | Why does Hardy hate my screen?? | 09:26 |
| timandtom | rothchild: Yes, that's the first thing I do now, since before when I installed you had to do that to get flash... | 09:26 |
| GT | And how can I get them to play nice? | 09:26 |
| androver | taejo: i'm searching for an answer for you | 09:26 |
| rothchild | nano_ you have to 'burn image' rather than just add the iso file to the project | 09:26 |
| cvd-pr | Enabling DMA? | 09:26 |
| Dr_willis | GT, most likely its a videocard/driver/monitor issue. :) depends on the details. | 09:26 |
| nano_ | rothchild...Thnx | 09:26 |
| hardy-wtf | well i have an edgy disk laying around here | 09:26 |
| pclynch | cvd-pr, hmmm i don't know where you should start. Are you sure you have all requirements for dvd playback and there up to date? | 09:26 |
| Taejo | androver, I already googled "pstocapt boundingbox" and some variations | 09:26 |
| ferris_ | IndyGunFreak, deb http://getswiftfox.com/builds/debian/branch unstable non-free | 09:26 |
| hardy-wtf | i think i will just install that | 09:26 |
| hardy-wtf | and upgrade | 09:26 |
| hardy-wtf | then upgrade again | 09:26 |
| hardy-wtf | then upgrade again | 09:26 |
| hardy-wtf | lol | 09:27 |

| rothchild | hardy-wtf if you go with edgy you have a long upgrade route do you have a dapper disk instead? | 09:27 |
| cvd-pr | pclynch, yes | 09:27 |
| jube | Anyone know where the settings are saved for gThumb? | 09:27 |
| rothchild | then you've only got a one stage update | 09:27 |
| hardy-wtf | only edgy | 09:27 |
| natalie | Hello People! | 09:27 |
| androver | taejo: you're about as far as I am, then. try changing "LogLevel warning" to "LogLevel Debug" in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf and check out the error log after that. | 09:27 |
| natalie | I have qemu0.82 and I would like to use 0.9 because that one supports the qcow2 format. | 09:27 |
| androver | razel: yeah, I think it'll work. | 09:27 |
| natalie | whats a good way to update qemu0.82 to qemu0.9? | 09:27 |
| natalie | the qemu website says "download this and extract in /". but that sounds rather scary. | 09:27 |
| pclynch | cvd-pr, i'd start with searching forums for the same problem. Sorry I can't be of much assistance. | 09:27 |

| earthcreed | I looked to see if there was a sound or alsa group I could add myself to, but I did not see one. This may be an ubuntustudio problem, since, in the upgrade to 8.04, I switched to the studio version. | 09:28 |

| newscane | ok, booting from livecd, i see the sata hd. lshw shows it as a scsi disk for whatever reason | 09:28 |
| rob | gonna revisit the edgy eft | 09:28 |
| rob | see you peeplez | 09:29 |
| rob | :) | 09:29 |
| newscane | how do i go about fixing grub at this point? | 09:29 |
| astro76 | nick_: well there's Scilab and GNU Octave, which are like Matlab | 09:29 |
| ferris_ | rob later | 09:29 |
| rothchild | it's been a while since I played with a broadcom I think you need ndiswrapper? | 09:29 |
| Dr_willis | GT, Hmm.. I have heard of issues with the 6200 - Not sure why that is. with DVI the thing 'should' get the monitor settings right | 09:29 |
| earthcreed | nick- Try Maxima. | 09:29 |
| astro76 | rothchild: usually no | 09:29 |
| nick_ | astro76: what one is better | 09:29 |
| toplok | what a mess I have with 8.04. I guess I may need to reinstall from zero... the upgrade was terrible | 09:29 |
| rothchild | not ndiswapper? | 09:29 |
| earthcreed | nick- If you know python and can wrap your head around it you might want to try sage. | 09:29 |
| jube | astro76, thank you so much. I found it in the gconf-editor under apps and was able to clear the film setting so it doesn't default to the wrong film name | 09:30 |

| GT | Dr_willis: Well, it should, but it thinks it's the size of my eyeball still. | 09:30 |
| androver | earthcreed: they switched to pulseaudio in 8.04. Wine, at least, doesn't have a pulseaudio driver working yet so they do some compatibility stuff with OSS. Not that that helps :) | 09:30 |
| toplok | is there a way to save all emails from evolution ? | 09:30 |
| astro76 | nick_: I'm partial to Scilab, haven't used Octave much... Scilab is not "free software" but is free and open source | 09:30 |
| timandtom | rothchild: No idea :( In 7.10, it just automatically asked me if I wanted to enable the restricted drivers for the card, so I did. If I use the "Hardware Testing" option in System>Administrator, then it detects what it is, but that doesn't help any. It just tells me it's name | 09:30 |
| Taejo | androver, I didn't notice anything meaningful in the huge spam debug logging caused | 09:30 |
| Dr_willis | GT, i recall on some of my machines. it would not get the monitor res correct Untill i installed the proper nvidia-glx drivers | 09:30 |

| GT | Dr_willis: I can't figure that part out for the life of me... | 09:31 |
| astro76 | nick_: it's open source and free cost, there are a few restrictions which prevent it from being called "free software" but it won't effect you ;) | 09:31 |

| dystopianray | askand: i'm not sure why it has been removed as the varaible is most definetly still being used by acpi scripts to enable and disable laptop_mode | 09:55 |

| timandtom | My wireless card worked PERFECTLY under 7.10, with one restricted driver, which installed automatically. Since I reformatted and installed WinXP/Ubuntu 8.04, it hasn't worked at all. Will not turn on, does nothing, but Hardware Testing will still read it. Ubuntu 7.10 LiveCD will still run it. Whats wrong? Card is Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection (rev 02) | 09:56 |
| androver | timandtom: anything suspicious in dmesg? | 09:56 |
| rothchild | timandtom you could do worse than check the link ferris just posted | 09:57 |

| dystopianray | askand: let me know when you have done that | 09:57 |
| timandtom | androver: What's dmesg? I don't really know much about linux. I kinda just installed 7.10 when windows got borked, and everything worked perfectly right off the bat | 09:57 |
| oddalot | ilike sudo displayconfig-gtk | 09:57 |
| jpatrick | !gksudo | oddalot | 09:57 |
| ubotu | oddalot: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 09:57 |
| timandtom | rothchild: Will do, thanks | 09:57 |
| oddalot | whoops | 09:57 |
| chivaknievel | we can tell him how to fix it and thats fine, im having problems with my wireless as well | 09:58 |
| chivaknievel | i know how to fix it | 09:58 |
| chivaknievel | thats not a problem | 09:58 |
| chivaknievel | but | 09:58 |
| chivaknievel | i shouldnt have to | 09:58 |
| askand | dystopianray: ok done everything | 09:58 |
| androver | timandtom: type "dmesg" at a command line and it'll show you log output. just look for suspicious errors and stuff that has to do with your wireless card. if you find anything, paste it and the stuff surrounding it into a pastebin and show someone here. | 09:58 |
| oddalot | ilike gksudo displayconfig-gtk | 09:58 |

| Le-Chuck_ITA | anyone knows why? | 10:11 |
| toplok | vistakiller, it was working fine before 8.04, I wonder why 8.04 has changed it | 10:11 |
| androver | timandtom: http://www.mepis.org/node/11915 has a suggestion involving the BIOS, might want to try it. | 10:11 |
| vistakiller | because there is a problem with some gpu cards | 10:11 |
| Le-Chuck_ITA | oh sorry it's not true | 10:11 |
| oddalot | Le-Chuck_ITA no idea | 10:11 |
| Dr_willis | tony403, depends on what apps you are wanting. I mixx and match kde/gnome apps depending on the task i am doing. | 10:11 |
| vistakiller | you have install the driver? and what graphic card you have? | 10:11 |

| christhegreek | do i have to install again the ubuntu hardy heron final? | 10:20 |
| oddalot | lartza_ why don't you write a java program that does batch file extention naming? | 10:20 |
| blame | Ubuntu installed Nvidia drivers and now everytime right before login the monitor turns itself off? Can anyone help me locate the problem? | 10:20 |
| astro76 | RudyValencia: indeed | 10:21 |
| Dr_willis | RudyValencia, correct. But not all disrtos are enabling it by default. | 10:21 |
| lartza_ | oddalot: ? | 10:21 |
| vistakiller | blame try to go to recovery mode | 10:21 |
| Dr_willis | RudyValencia, but its getting more and more common. | 10:21 |
| IndyGunFreak | christhegreek: if your beta is up to date, you should be up to date | 10:21 |
| vistakiller | fix xserver and after install driver with envyng from synaptic | 10:21 |
| MttJocy | Hi | 10:21 |
| RudyValencia | Oh, is there any difference besides /dev/hdx becoming /dev/sdx ? | 10:21 |
| Steve14_ub | blame: have you set up the monitor with the nvidia tool already? | 10:21 |
| lartza_ | I need link of about 350 jar files to html | 10:21 |
| IndyGunFreak | vistakiller: lol, now thats solid advice..lol.. geez | 10:22 |
| oddalot | lartza you said you had a lot of jar files you wanted to add links to? | 10:22 |
| sidewinder | i can't setup my network card for a static ip address. i did it like i used to in gutsy. | 10:22 |
| blame | vistakiller: I did, it fixed the turn off problem but it disabled the installed driver | 10:22 |
| oddalot | lartza_ so why don't you write a java program...i was assuming you know java if you are dealing with jar files | 10:22 |
| blame | Steve14_ub: I did, but to no avail. | 10:22 |
| vistakiller | blame try the programme envyng | 10:22 |
| vistakiller | to install the driver | 10:22 |
| chivaknievel | is there a channel dedicated to complaing? | 10:22 |

| vistakiller | is open source you cant complain | 10:23 |
| chivaknievel | and im sure others should too | 10:23 |
| blame | vistakiller: let me look in to it and returng back to you | 10:23 |
| Dr_willis | chivaknievel, perhaps #ubuntu-rants | 10:23 |
| IndyGunFreak | chivaknievel: yes, #ubuntu-ops they even allow lots of foul language there | 10:23 |
| chivaknievel | thanks | 10:23 |
| Jagged| | chivaknievel: I dont think /dev/null has its own channel ... | 10:23 |
| astro76 | IndyGunFreak: hahaha | 10:23 |
| lartza_ | I noticed there is a LOT of crap on same folder as jar so I think I'm gonna do it by hand | 10:23 |
| Dr_willis | I wonder if we are going to have a #ubuntu-wubi channel someday. | 10:23 |
| chivaknievel | open source is all about complaining | 10:23 |

| ditoa | what is the best divx player on ubuntu? still vlc? | 10:24 |
| jerry13 | I can acess them through "computer" anyway. | 10:24 |
| Dr_willis | ditoa, why is it divx specific? :) i tend to use gmplayer for my needs. | 10:24 |
| oddalot | best dilbert strip EVER -> http://darjeelink.com/2007/11/26/dilbert-on-agile/ | 10:24 |
| Jagged| | chivaknievel: nah it's about releasing that no ones listen to you and desiding to fix it yourself :P | 10:24 |
| MttJocy | RudyValencia, I believe that the difference between /dev/hdx and /dev/sdx drives is how they are physically connected to the system (and therefore how they are seen from the kernel's perspective) however I could be wrong and I'm not sure which one refers to what maybe someone else could confirm that (and perhaps explain better than I can) | 10:24 |
| timandtom | rothchild: :( No luck. And I made sure to leave it on when I restarted | 10:24 |
| RudyValencia | OK | 10:25 |
| ditoa | just because everything i have is divx/xvid :) | 10:25 |
| lartza_ | oddalot:Yea it would be pretty simple. It should search all .jar ended files and position the filename after href= correctly, but I'll do it hand | 10:25 |
| blame | vistakiller: do I have to remove the drivers currently installed priror to executing envyng? | 10:25 |
| vistakiller | no | 10:25 |
| vistakiller | just install them with envyng | 10:25 |
| oddalot | lartza_ in fact | 10:25 |
| * IndyGunFreak wonders how long before this envyng thing in the repos blows up | 10:25 | |
| chivaknievel | fixing isnt a problem | 10:25 |
| oddalot | lartza_ you could write a unix script and not even have to compile it | 10:25 |
| RudyValencia | Oh, What relationship does Ubuntu have to Debian? Is it still "Ubuntu is a more up-to-date, user-friendly fork of Debian"? | 10:26 |
| chivaknievel | but i just expect more i guess | 10:26 |
| Dr_willis | MttJocy, that used to be how it worked. but now the changes in the kernel make most/all ide drives also show up as sd devices. | 10:26 |
| chivaknievel | from ubuntu | 10:26 |
| lartza_ | odda lot: I knew that and wondered why you started to talk about java, but there are only like 50 files left after all crap deleted | 10:26 |
| MttJocy | Dr_willis, Oh right, didn't know that. | 10:26 |
| vistakiller | chivaknievel wait then for updates | 10:26 |
| chivaknievel | i guess thats a good plan | 10:26 |
| Dr_willis | MttJocy, its due to cleanup of the ide and drive subsystem code from what ive read. | 10:26 |
| ditoa | what package is gmplayer listed under? i cannot find it in synaptic? | 10:26 |
| Dr_willis | ditoa, apt-cache search mplayer | 10:26 |
| chivaknievel | im annoying i know | 10:27 |
| chivaknievel | and im sorry | 10:27 |
| ditoa | ahh gnome-player ;) | 10:27 |
| chivaknievel | but i really respect ubuntu | 10:27 |
| Dr_willis | expect more what? :) | 10:27 |
| RudyValencia | Oh, What relationship does Ubuntu have to Debian? Is it still "Ubuntu is a more up-to-date, more user-friendly, community-oriented fork of Debian"? | 10:27 |
| oddalot | lartza_ k | 10:27 |
| chivaknievel | and i want it to succeed | 10:27 |
| astro76 | !debian | RudyValencia | 10:27 |
| ubotu | RudyValencia: Ubuntu and Debian are closely related. Ubuntu builds on the foundations of Debian architecture and infrastructure, with a different community and release process. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/relationship - Remember, !repositories meant for Debian should NOT be used on Ubuntu! | 10:27 |
| chivaknievel | but all of these problems are the sort of thing that will make it fail | 10:28 |
| Dr_willis | !debian | 10:28 |
| Dr_willis | RudyValencia, with each new release of ubuntu - - the differances grow and grow. it seems. I think its beyond a 'fork' stage now. | 10:28 |
| RudyValencia | Ah | 10:28 |

| vistakiller | the have it | 10:29 |
| timandtom | 7.10 recognized my wireless card and automatically installed the restricted drivers for it. Since I switched from 7.10 to a 8.04/WinXP dual boot, the wireless card won't turn on at all(In WinXP or 8.04, yet it works in a 7.10 LiveCD). Anyone have any ideas how to fix this? | 10:29 |
| vistakiller | blame you dont find it? | 10:29 |
| lartza_ | with java jar i get Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: jar | 10:29 |
| MttJocy | You know, I wonder why, especially when there is a new distribution update that puts a lot of pressure on the update servers (or it seams to be, my computers online update tool is downloading them now) have they ever considered making it so that the online distribution upgrade tool has the option to fetch the distribution update via torrent rather than hitting the update servers directly, I am sure given the option quite a few users would choose it and | 10:29 |
| MttJocy | it could help reduce the peak load the update servers get on release day, or is there some reason this is technically not possible? | 10:29 |
| RudyValencia | So Ubuntu might now be considered "offspring of Debian"? | 10:30 |
| xipi | hi | 10:30 |
| pteague_laptop | astro76> ah, ok thanks... i'm trying to run icewm on my laptop as it's a bit low on resources... unfortunately wireless doesn't seem to auto connect unless i log into gnome | 10:30 |
| IndyGunFreak | amerio: i have tat same device working w/ madwifi.. no probs here, are ou sure the ESSID of the network you want is broadcasting? | 10:30 |
| xipi | what does the address 192.168.0.0/24 mean? | 10:30 |
| chivaknievel | you can upgrade via the install cd | 10:30 |
| astro76 | xipi: /24 means a netmask of 255.255.255.0 | 10:31 |
| chivaknievel | download the alternate cd | 10:31 |

| amerio | IndyGunFreak: yeah im very sure , the day before yesterday I had gutsy with wireless working and detection is ok ! i didnt edit any of router settings , when I installed hardy yesterday it just stopped | 10:31 |
| lartza_ | is there anyway to run hone jar progs on ubuntu? | 10:31 |
| xipi | astro76: so all ips from 192.168.0.0 - .255? | 10:31 |
| astro76 | xipi: so that's specifiying a network from 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.0.255 with a netmask I mentioned | 10:31 |

| astro76 | Ubuntu-Noob: it should work fine, but as always backup your files if they are important | 10:34 |
| linux__alien | i installed Ubuntu 8.04 everything works expect the NVIDIA driver. when i installed the Nvidia driver i just get a white screen. I use a NVIDIA Ge-Force 8400 M GS Card in my Dell Inspiron 1520 laptop | 10:34 |
| linux__alien | is there a wor around for this? | 10:34 |
| MttJocy | timandtom, Regards your wireless card no longer being detected after the distribution upgrade, perhaps you should submit a bug report with the details of your card etc, check nobody else has already posted one though. | 10:35 |
| lartza_ | could someone write me script to delete all files under 35kt from a folder? | 10:35 |
| timandtom | amerio: I've been asking in here for a while too, no one seems to have any idea :( I'm thinking about just going back to 7.10 for a bit, especially if it turns out to be Ubuntu specifically, not just the card not working at all(Haven't tried on XP yet) | 10:35 |
| Exteris | linux__alien, i have the same card, only the non-mobile version, and the restricted drivers manager should handle them fine | 10:35 |
| astro76 | lartza_: that should be one find command | 10:35 |
| astro76 | lartza_: well, find piped to xargs | 10:35 |
| elmargol | Someone knows how I can see if an application uses XV? | 10:35 |
| Exteris | but linux__alien you should pastebin the contents of: /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 10:35 |
| timandtom | MttJocy: Thanks, already did though. But, that doesn't help me get it working NOW :( | 10:35 |
| linux__alien | Exteris, i just get a white screen ok i ll do that i ll enable that driver and then paste the contents of pastebin | 10:36 |
| amerio | timandtom: I had that problem in gutsy and spent like a week to fix it , i dont want to suffer again | 10:36 |
| linux__alien | Exteris, currently i am using X without xorg.conf i ve delete the file | 10:36 |
| linux__alien | Exteris, is it possible to paste it now ? or should i enable it again and paste it? | 10:36 |
| Exteris | linux__alien, you should have renamed it | 10:36 |
| timandtom | Well, I'm out for the night. I'll try again tomorrow if it works in WinXP... Or just reinstall 7.10 if not. Farewell. | 10:36 |
| Exteris | linux__alien, uhm no you need the log with the errors in it | 10:36 |
| linux__alien | Exteris, i still have a backup though | 10:36 |
| lartza_ | astro76: Kinda amateur and didn't find script from google. | 10:37 |
| timandtom | amerio: Ah, that sucks. Everything worked perfectly right out of the box for me with 7.10. It was really a great way to get introduced to Linux. | 10:37 |
| eeboy | Dr_willis, when a user logs in is what I am after | 10:37 |
| chivaknievel | this is such a mess, if upgrading is going to cause so many problems to so many people, what is the point of the every 6 month upgrade? | 10:37 |
| linux__alien | Exteris, so should i rename the file and again try logging into X and then copy the xorg.log and paste it? | 10:37 |
| MttJocy | timandtom, To be honest not sure how to help you there, presumably something in the upgrade has broken the support for that card I guess, maybe someone else who has your card who is cleverer than me might figure out a workaround till it is fixed with some luck (either that or it gets fixed soon) | 10:37 |
| Exteris | linux__alien, restore the backup, restart the xserver, it fails, then copy the log to another file and paste it | 10:37 |
| linux__alien | done will do it now | 10:37 |

| bigtimer121 | APT | 10:43 |
| tcpdumpgod | alienseer23-eee it probably screwed your xorg.conf up. | 10:43 |

| howlingmadhowie | lartza_: the easiest way would be to install a mobile phone emulator | 10:44 |

| linux__alien | vistakiller, i am installing the driver using envyng currently | 11:05 |
| cappy_ | when i change drivers to NVIDIA and restart Ubuntu is running in low-graphics mode | 11:05 |
| El1 | and it asks me to run in low-res mode | 11:05 |
| fserve | How i can make a hidden shared folder with samba? in windows is just name+$ but it does not hide from samba users... | 11:05 |

| cappy_ | :@ | 11:05 |
| voron_ | flower, nano /etc/network/interfaces | 11:05 |
| vistakiller | yes it is general problem | 11:05 |
| cappy_ | fuck that | 11:05 |
| vistakiller | this prblem exist from alpha | 11:05 |
| voron_ | what do u see there? | 11:05 |
| El1 | cappy_ try installing the nvidia-glx packages instead of nvidia-glx-new: that will atleast eliminate the resolution problem | 11:05 |
| vistakiller | but no one fix it | 11:05 |
| linux__alien | vistakiller, i get a white screen when i enable Nvidia driver which i had installed using restricted manager now i am trying with envyng | 11:06 |
| El1 | altho there's no gfx acceleration | 11:06 |
| linux__alien | vistakiller, the same card worked perfectly with 7,10 | 11:06 |
| vistakiller | i know and my card was working | 11:06 |

| tcpdumpgod | flower, whats the problem you're having? | 11:07 |
| Distue | hello | 11:07 |
| El1 | well, until there's a fix best thing is to just install nvidia-glx instead of nvidia-glx-new so you can atleast run in proper resolution | 11:07 |
| cappy_ | im installing nvidia-glx now | 11:07 |
| alienseer23-eee | something is wrong with firefox, it won't import ANY data from the previouse instal, does anybody know how to resolve this? | 11:07 |

| TerrorBite | ugh | 11:07 |
| El1 | ok cappy_ | 11:07 |
| flower | tcdumpgod, eth0 doesn't show up in the networkmanager... no internet | 11:07 |
| vistakiller | El1 the best way is to install them with envy | 11:07 |
| TerrorBite | Having a 3.5GB / == no upgrade | 11:07 |
| El1 | then it's even worse | 11:07 |
| El1 | so no | 11:08 |

| tcpdumpgod | Anyone else need any help? | 11:16 |
| linux__alien | vistakiller, can i download the driver from Nvidia itself? | 11:17 |
| oddalot | three steps... | 11:17 |
| vistakiller | yes downlad it | 11:17 |
| linux__alien | vistakiller, if i get the driver used in 7.10 it should be fine | 11:17 |
| flower | tcpdumpgod, no no luck ... | 11:17 |
| Otman | Oddalot i know apt ant etc i want to learn commands ... | 11:17 |
| vallhalla81 | i am having trouble with firefox and flash player i have both installed but when i try to use a site such as youtube it sayes i need to install flsh player can any one advise please | 11:17 |
| astro76 | thenetduck: but you probably don't have them both on the r61 | 11:17 |
| vistakiller | and after istall it with envyng | 11:17 |
| thenetduck | astro76: I am getting used to the red dot, its actually really useful | 11:17 |
| linux__alien | vistakiller, is it possible to gte that? | 11:17 |
| astro76 | thenetduck: yeah I love it :) | 11:17 |
| thenetduck | I guess you just have to use it correctly | 11:17 |
| tcpdumpgod | flower, does it return anything? | 11:17 |
| kc | is there any way to restore a XP hard drive from ubuntu? | 11:17 |
| vistakiller | there is an option to use envyng the driver that you have download | 11:17 |
| thenetduck | astro76: do you have a ThnkPad? | 11:18 |
| flower | tcpdumpgod, no | 11:18 |
| tcpdumpgod | vallhalla81 did you install it through the package management system, or through the file provided by Adobe? | 11:18 |
| tcpdumpgod | flower, | 11:18 |
| tcpdumpgod | try this one | 11:18 |
| kc | xp boot "fixer" killed the data :( | 11:18 |
| astro76 | thenetduck: yes a T61... since I use the middle click a lot in firefox and to paste, I love that it has three buttons | 11:18 |
| emorris | MajSh: create a launcher (or just run) gnome-terminal -x screen | 11:18 |
| vallhalla81 | tcpdumpgod: i have tryed both ways | 11:18 |
| oddalot | otman, you have to cd through the source to libxmms then type sudo ./configure then type sudo make then type sudo make install | 11:18 |
| tcpdumpgod | sudo dmesg |grep -i pci | 11:18 |
| MajSh | emorris: trying now. thanks | 11:18 |
| tcpdumpgod | tell me if that returns anything. | 11:18 |
| TerrorBite | oddalot, IMO you only need sudo for the make install stage | 11:19 |
| thenetduck | astro76: I just got mine Yesterday, I don't really know where to start when it comes to getting skype working because I am a 64 bit user as of today :) | 11:19 |
| flower | tcpdumpgod, is it |grep or | grep | 11:19 |
| oddalot | terrorbite you are probably write, i just always use sudo because i don';t know what i';m doing | 11:19 |
| emorris | flower: doesnt matter | 11:19 |
| thenetduck | astro76: do you know how to get skype working with the video camera and adio? | 11:19 |
| oddalot | right* | 11:19 |
| vallhalla81 | tcpdumpgod: a long list want the pate bin? | 11:19 |
| MajSh | emorris: Thanks!! | 11:19 |
| jgoo | What is the analogue between '1.8 and 2.2 gamma' and how xgamma sets the values? I have to set my gamma to .1 to see variations in my monitors whites... can this by a shitty LCD? (philops 190S) | 11:19 |
| jgoo | ips | 11:19 |
| emorris | MajSh: my pleasure | 11:19 |
| tcpdumpgod | vallhalla81, paste me the results of this command "sudo find /usr/ -name libflashplayer.so" | 11:19 |
| astro76 | thenetduck: no I don't have a camera | 11:19 |
| TerrorBite | oddalot, my general rule is: Only use sudo if it says "Permission denied" or "You must be root" if you run it without | 11:20 |
| tcpdumpgod | flower, either | 11:20 |
| linux__alien | vistakiller, after i download the driver from nvidia.com how do i install it? | 11:20 |
| thenetduck | astro76: oh, bummer.. the camera works with cheese out of the box, i am happy about that | 11:20 |
| vallhalla81 | /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/libflashplayer.so | 11:20 |
| Otman | whene i type sudo make i see this make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop. | 11:20 |
| oddalot | terrorbite, of course....but you don't have to worry if you use sudo every time | 11:20 |
| thenetduck | astro76: what does the middle button do in Linux? | 11:20 |
| tcpdumpgod | vallhalla81, are you using firefox? | 11:20 |
| RudyValencia | I'm setting up my server to do vhosts under Apache. I used to put my vhosts' DocumentRoot(s) in /hosts/(domainname)/(subdomain) - where should I be putting them? | 11:20 |
| thenetduck | astro76: can't figure out what it does | 11:20 |
| vistakiller | i think there is an option from envyng to install them | 11:20 |
| voron_ | Otman, ./configure | 11:20 |
| vallhalla81 | i am yes | 11:20 |
| Dr_willis | thenetduck, pastes the selected test normally. | 11:20 |
| Otman | i did ./configure | 11:20 |
| tcpdumpgod | ok vallhalla81 | 11:21 |
| tcpdumpgod | paste this | 11:21 |
| oddalot | terrorbite guess i will get better at learning which ones use which over time | 11:21 |
| voron_ | Otman, what did it say? | 11:21 |
| oddalot | didn't even know about this gksudo until tonight | 11:21 |
| tcpdumpgod | actually | 11:21 |
| pisse | My sound in Firefox doesn't work. Same problem: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=708907 | 11:21 |
| tcpdumpgod | vallhalla81, whats your username on your machine you're working on? | 11:21 |
| thenetduck | Dr_willis: oh cool | 11:21 |
| astro76 | thenetduck: well there's the select to copy, middle click to paste thing... in gnome if you middle click on a window title it will send to back... in Firefox it will open links in new tabs, or close tabs | 11:21 |
| vallhalla81 | tcpdumpgod: dave | 11:21 |
| tcpdumpgod | ok hold | 11:21 |
| oddalot | otman you are probably going to have to do sudo apt-get build-essential | 11:21 |
| oddalot | err | 11:21 |
| vallhalla81 | tcpdumpgod: ok | 11:21 |
| oddalot | sudo apt-get install build-essential | 11:22 |
| Otman | okay | 11:22 |
| oddalot | and also some others.. | 11:22 |
| tcpdumpgod | okay dave, ready to paste? | 11:22 |
| astro76 | thenetduck: a few examples ;) | 11:22 |
| thenetduck | astro76: sounds nifty | 11:22 |
| vallhalla81 | tcpdumpgod: sure | 11:22 |
| tcpdumpgod | sudo ln -s /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/libflashplayer.so /home/dave/.mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so | 11:22 |
| tcpdumpgod | paste that | 11:22 |
| tcpdumpgod | then close and reopen firefox and try a flash site again. | 11:22 |
| linux__alien | vistakiller, i guess i ve to go back to 7.10 | 11:22 |
| linux__alien | again | 11:22 |
| linux__alien | 7.10 was really good | 11:22 |
| linux__alien | didnt find any problems as such | 11:23 |
| El1 | afaik it's not possible to downgrade | 11:23 |
| TerrorBite | I haven't upgraded from 7.10 yet | 11:23 |
| tcpdumpgod | lol@the name cocaine_eyes | 11:23 |
| linux__alien | E11 i ll have to remove 8.04 and install 7.10 again | 11:23 |
| vistakiller | linux-alien this is a general problem | 11:23 |
| El1 | so just install nvidia-glx for the time being so you can run in proper resolution | 11:23 |
| TerrorBite | not enough disk space to do an upgrade. Using an eeepc with a 4GB SSD | 11:23 |
| vistakiller | wait they will fix it | 11:23 |
| vallhalla81 | tcpdumpgod: ln: creating symbolic link `/home/dave/.mozilla/plugins/libflashplayer.so': File exists | 11:23 |
| oddalot | otman do sudo apt-get install libgtk1.2-dev | 11:23 |
| astro76 | thenetduck: there is info out there on using it to scroll... and if you did that you could use Emulate3Buttons in xorg.conf to get your middle click back (you'd press left and right together to get middle) | 11:23 |
| El1 | do the devs actually know about this? | 11:23 |
| cappy_ | same is with nvidia-glx | 11:23 |
| cappy_ | :@:@:@ | 11:23 |
| Otman | Okay now im downlonding sudo apt-get build-essential | 11:23 |
| tobago|away | when i start the vpnc-client, all other apps (firefox, irc) are blocked. what might be the reason? | 11:23 |
| astro76 | thenetduck: so it depends on your preference | 11:23 |
| linux__alien | E11 nvidia-glx ? | 11:23 |
| tcpdumpgod | vallhalla81, im going to private message you. | 11:23 |
| vistakiller | i think there will be a bug report | 11:23 |
| El1 | yes, instead of nvidia-glx-new you install the nvidia-glx package | 11:24 |
| vistakiller | too many peolple have the problem | 11:24 |
| cappy_ | yup | 11:24 |
| El1 | that shut down the resolution problem for me | 11:24 |
| linux__alien | hmmm makes sense | 11:24 |
| linux__alien | let me do that | 11:24 |
| Otman | oddalot Query me | 11:24 |
| linux__alien | how do i do that | 11:24 |
| linux__alien | apt-get install nvidia-glx? | 11:24 |
| thenetduck | astro76: I like this set up a lot better, now that I know how to use it. It just gives me more options | 11:24 |
| El1 | synaptic :P | 11:24 |
| ModplanMan | Well hallo thar, I recently compiled 2.6.25 kernel, and methinks the rndis_wlan module (needed to make my USB wireless work) might be intefering with me sound | 11:24 |
| El1 | got to synaptic search for nvidia-glx, remove nvidia-glx-new and install nvidia-glx | 11:24 |
| cappy_ | El1: nvidia-glx doesnt work for me, i get same error :( | 11:24 |
| JPSman | X-Fi | 11:24 |
| JPSman | help | 11:24 |

| Otman | oddalot OKay | 11:25 |
| El1 | which methods to install the drivers have you tried cappy_? | 11:25 |
| tobago|away | how to run the vpnc and the firefox at the same time without the vpnc blocking the firefox? | 11:25 |
| tcpdumpgod | okay, just wanted to make sure you were typing correctly flower | 11:25 |
| tcpdumpgod | now flower | 11:25 |
| tcpdumpgod | press up on your keyboard, erase pci | 11:25 |
| cappy_ | sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx ... | 11:25 |
| tcpdumpgod | and put | 11:25 |
| tcpdumpgod | eth | 11:25 |
| oddalot | otman did you see my query? | 11:25 |
| FloodBot2 | tcpdumpgod: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 11:25 |
| linux__alien | E11 was this the version in 7.10 ? | 11:26 |
| El1 | no it's 8.04 | 11:26 |
| Otman | oddalot no i have'nt | 11:26 |
| cappy_ | i tried and official drivers from nvidia.com | 11:26 |
| === linkipit is now known as Linkipit | ||
| cappy_ | but same with them | 11:26 |
| El1 | did you uninstall those first before you reinstalled nvidia-glx package? | 11:26 |
| linux__alien | E11 any idea on the version of the driver used in 7.10 ? | 11:26 |
| Otman | oddalot Query me again | 11:26 |
| tobago|away | somebody here experinces with vpnc? | 11:26 |
| El1 | envy should work for 7.10 | 11:26 |
| tobago|away | experiences | 11:26 |
| Vertelemming | I'm having a strange problem where new windows don't show up on top, and don't grab the focus. They always appear just below the topmost window, whatever that may be. I've been poking at the configuration, but I'm afraid I'm a bit stumped. | 11:26 |
| cappy_ | no just typed sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx and they removed the new ones | 11:26 |
| astro76 | El1: envy is not recommended if you want to be able to upgrade | 11:27 |
| linux__alien | E11 no in 7.10 i installed the driver using restricted packages and it just wored | 11:27 |
| oddalot | otman query me i guess | 11:27 |
| El1 | for me too, but not in 8.04 | 11:27 |
| vistakiller | is there a bug report? | 11:27 |
| linux__alien | so i want the version of the driver used in 7.10 | 11:27 |
| Dr_willis | fserve, You might want to install the samba-doc package and check out the samba books it contains. I dont know the answer off hand. but i bet its in there. ) was thinking the 'hidden' share feature was a rather insecure gimmic really last i read about it. Linux samba browsers can find/see them just fine since they are really not hidden. | 11:27 |
| Otman | oddalot im using xhcat | 11:27 |
| Otman | xchat * | 11:27 |
| vistakiller | linux_alien is the same version with here | 11:27 |
| flower | tcpdumpgod, erase? comand not found | 11:27 |
| bimo | helo linuk alien | 11:27 |
| fserve | hmm | 11:27 |
| El1 | cappy_ do sudo chmod a+x NVIDIA* (your binary file from the nvidia site) | 11:27 |
| vistakiller | the problem is a bug with hardy | 11:27 |
| Myxb | is there a way to get Intel 945GM video working half-way decently?? fps is ways too low. | 11:27 |

| astro76 | Myxb: for 3d? | 11:28 |
| bimo | helo capyy | 11:28 |
| Myxb | astro76: yep | 11:28 |
| cappy_ | hello | 11:28 |
| astro76 | Myxb: no they're slow as hell for 3d | 11:28 |
| bimo | where a u | 11:28 |
| astro76 | Myxb: now the newer X3100 is decent | 11:28 |
| cappy_ | what do you mean ? | 11:29 |
| obnibolongo | Myxb, I have a 965GM and also complain abut 3D.... :P | 11:29 |
| oddalot | otman, press control T then type /server irc.efnet.org and join #oddalot | 11:29 |
| obnibolongo | astro76, is it? :P | 11:29 |
| bimo | where are u | 11:29 |
| Myxb | astro76: pity, have to consider a new laptop then | 11:29 |
| Crash91 | hello | 11:29 |
| astro76 | obnibolongo: good enough for me... good enough to not deal with proprietary driver non-sense | 11:29 |
| linux__alien | let me check now | 11:29 |
| linux__alien | brb | 11:29 |
| cappy_ | at home ? :) | 11:29 |
| Chrysalis | whats the right java package in synaptic? theres like a million of them | 11:29 |
| tcpdumpgod | flower | 11:29 |
| astro76 | obnibolongo: supposedly the X3500 is much better yet | 11:29 |
| tcpdumpgod | lol | 11:29 |
| tcpdumpgod | backspace pci in the last command you typed | 11:30 |
| zeno | Chrysalis: 6 or 5? | 11:30 |
| tcpdumpgod | and replace it with eth and run the command again. | 11:30 |
| Crash91 | i want to install GRUB to the /boot partition, not the MBR, does the installer let me choose this? | 11:30 |
| Chrysalis | 6 | 11:30 |
| bimo | at home capy | 11:30 |
| obnibolongo | astro76, yah I bought a all Intel laptop just not to worry about closed source drivers (ok, 3945's firmware is closed-source, but better than a Broadcom driver ^^) | 11:30 |
| zeno | sun-java6-jre | 11:30 |
| cappy_ | the only solution is to use NV drivers | 11:30 |
| cappy_ | but i dont get 3D accel | 11:31 |
| obnibolongo | astro76, I honestly doubtX3500 will be that better... Intel cards == free but sucky cards :P | 11:31 |
| zeno | Chrysalis: also maybe sun-java6-plugin | 11:31 |
| Dr_willis | Crash91, i was thinking the alternative-installer cd - allowed that.. the desktop-cd-installer does not. | 11:31 |
| cappy_ | and in wine i get ChoosePixelFormat failed | 11:31 |
| obnibolongo | *free driver support | 11:31 |
| Chrysalis | ok thank you | 11:31 |
| dreamcoder | can someone help me get my display working i am wokring on 640 x whatever its well annoying when i change it in the gui and restart x it keeps going back to normal | 11:31 |
| pisse | I need help with my Firefox sound. It doesn't work (flash) but I get sound from totem.. how do I fix this? | 11:32 |
| astro76 | obnibolongo: well there's only so much you can do without being a separate chip... if they only made graphics cards | 11:32 |
| Dr_willis | dreamcoder, You may want to tell everyone what brand/model video card as well. | 11:32 |
| zeno | dreamcoder: put it first in the resolutions of /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 11:32 |
| anto | pisse, sudo apt-get install mozilla-mplayer | 11:32 |
| minimec | hi. How can I tell gdm, to do a simple 'reload', when I logout and not a 'restart'? A 'restart freezes my system completly. I Don't find anything in gdm.conf and gdm.suctom.conf | 11:32 |
| vistakiller | pisse i think is a problem with pulseadio this | 11:32 |

| sushi_ | hi | 11:32 |
| dreamcoder | its an onboard one | 11:32 |
| Crash91 | please help, want to install GRUB to the /boot partition, not the MBR, does the installer let me choose this? I have the regular installer | 11:32 |
| pisse | vistakiller: yeah, I've read that but I don't know anything about that.. you know how to fix it? | 11:33 |
| Crash91 | i read on a thread that only the alternate CD can let you do that | 11:33 |
| zeno | Crash91: you gotta do manual partitioning | 11:33 |
| nonewmsgs | Crash91: yes | 11:33 |
| Crash91 | does the regular desktop CD have that option | 11:33 |
| zeno | maybe not worth it :?) | 11:33 |
| vistakiller | i dont know only if you use alsa | 11:33 |
| pisse | vistakiller: I use alsa | 11:33 |
| Crash91 | zeno: im not concerned about partitioning, just whether it will let me choose | 11:33 |
| Wibble- | Is there any program that can undelete on ext3? A program I'm using just deleted stuff it should not have done! | 11:33 |
| Crash91 | zeno: 1GB swap, 4GB OS, and how big should the /boot be? | 11:34 |
| zeno | Crash91: it wont give you a GUI choice, you gotta set it up manually with the partitioning tool | 11:34 |
| zeno | not sure sorry | 11:34 |
| sushi_ | hi i just installed ubuntu on a 800mhz celeron with 756mb ram and graphic onboard the problem is that either the system or gnome is running very slow | 11:34 |

| sushi_ | are there any optimizations i can do? | 11:35 |

| linux__alien | Exteris, The xorg.conf used here is the one that worked with 7.10 | 11:42 |
| s__ | I have downloaded the new verison and am using it as a live cd. I would like to know how to connect to the internet. I have a netgear dg834pn wireless router and a wpn111 adapter. I'm a complete newbie to ubuntu but use windows a lot. | 11:42 |
| Noiano | or, at least....what could be the reason for it? | 11:42 |
| oddalot | Zacca, i was joking, i don't know about the problem :/ | 11:43 |
| astro76 | |ns|nR8: apparently xmms is no longer in hardy, it's a dead project anyway, you should try xmms2 or audacious | 11:43 |
| zeno | |ns|nR8: wasnt xmms like discontinued? | 11:43 |
| Exteris | linux__alien, hmm there should be a log wth more information :(, but i gtg, sorry | 11:43 |
| |ns|nR8 | hmm... well xmms2 is a command line player | 11:43 |
| |ns|nR8 | i want gui | 11:43 |
| |ns|nR8 | aww i liked xmms ... | 11:43 |
| Crash91 | if i choose to manually edit partition table, will it then let me configure where it installs GRUB? | 11:44 |
| regis | by the way i had a problem with a nvidia card...that i resolved...should i bugreport or describe my procedure somewhere? in the wiki? | 11:44 |
| sushi_ | thx for the help | 11:44 |
| ganteng | yes a grou a partisi thi disk | 11:44 |
| LebLinux | hello, I just updated the packages on Hardy and the Update Manager is showing me 1 Distribution update called: "libgtk1.2" in Grey, I can't update it any ideas why? | 11:44 |
| sushi_ | cu later i hope i can make ubuntu a little bit faster right now its impossible to work with it | 11:44 |
| zeno | |ns|nR8: i usually just use mplayer =p | 11:44 |
| ganteng | mmgmm | 11:44 |
| astro76 | |ns|nR8: audacious is the continuation of xmms and I think it supports it's skins and such | 11:44 |
| |ns|nR8 | thanks ill try it out astro76 | 11:45 |
| flower | tcdumpgod, here is my network file: http://rafb.net/p/BDof8p93.html | 11:45 |
| fserve | how add folders, to audacious? | 11:45 |
| sushi_ | is its ture that kde is faster than gnome? | 11:45 |
| obnibolongo | |ns|nR8, audacious == xmms | 11:45 |
| obnibolongo | |ns|nR8, minus mp3cue support I guess | 11:45 |
| lividity | sushi_: Not in my opinion | 11:45 |
| obnibolongo | fserve, select them as if they were files | 11:45 |
| oddalot | |ns|nr8 someone just posted the deb for xmms a second ago | 11:45 |
| cappy_ | !nvidia | 11:45 |
| ubotu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 11:45 |
| obnibolongo | sushi_, kde is "slicker" than Gnome without compiz | 11:46 |
| cappy_ | !xconf | 11:46 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about xconf - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 11:46 |
| |ns|nR8 | yeah ive got the deb..but i cant install some dependencies yada yada | 11:46 |
| obnibolongo | sushi_, not faster | 11:46 |
| s__ | I have downloaded the new verison and am using it as a live cd. I would like to know how to connect to the internet. I have a netgear dg834pn wireless router and a wpn111 adapter. I'm a complete newbie to ubuntu but use windows a lot. | 11:46 |
| lividity | sushi_: You want a fast window manager go with fluxbox | 11:46 |
| |ns|nR8 | ill just try out audaciou | 11:46 |
| fserve | ohh, thank ya, sorry, obnibolongo | 11:46 |
| obnibolongo | fserve, no prob | 11:46 |
| yao_ziyuan | let's imagine there is a trojan/virus | 11:46 |
| oddalot | |ns|nr8 i compiled it fine, you need like the build-essential and two other packages i think | 11:46 |
| yao_ziyuan | it spawns multiple processes as seen in ksysguard | 11:47 |
| yao_ziyuan | if you kill one, the others recover it | 11:47 |
| |ns|nR8 | oh ok thanks oddalot | 11:47 |
| jsoftw | Hmmm, my right hand alt does something different to my left alt.. | 11:47 |
| yao_ziyuan | this is a common scenario in windows | 11:47 |
| yao_ziyuan | how do we deal with it? | 11:47 |
| RudyValencia | how do I setup Apache vhosts so that Samba can access their contents? | 11:47 |
| Crash91 | if i choose to manually edit partition table, will it then let me configure where it installs the bootloader?? | 11:47 |
| obnibolongo | yao_ziyuan, you start offering with update-manager a Malware Removal kit ? :P | 11:47 |
| yao_ziyuan | back in the windows days, i have to recover the system registry and system files from another clean windows installation | 11:47 |
| obnibolongo | yao_ziyuan, safe mode and clean start scripts | 11:48 |
| zeno | obnibolongo: i thought i saw some benchmarks that kde was slightly faster than gnome | 11:48 |
| zeno | but not much | 11:48 |
| s__ | how can i connect to the internet using a netgear wpn111 adapter | 11:48 |
| zeno | anyways fluxbox eats both alive | 11:48 |
| yao_ziyuan | well, | 11:48 |
| obnibolongo | zeno, ok, didn't know :) | 11:48 |
| yao_ziyuan | there is a difference: in windows, i'm always an administrator | 11:48 |
| lividity | x2 for fluxbox | 11:48 |
| tiara | hai | 11:48 |
| yao_ziyuan | obnibolongo: can start scripts be modified by a virus using my normal user account? | 11:49 |
| Dr_willis | how do you even benchmark a windowmanager/desktop? | 11:49 |
| bebraw | has someone gotten blender work well on hardy (using desktop fx)? | 11:49 |
| fserve | ouvindo[Linkin Park - Live in Texas - Numb] length[0:59/3:08] | 11:49 |
| dreamcoder | now i have tried gnome i am not sure which i prefer gnome or kde grrrrrr | 11:49 |
| dreamcoder | i hate choices | 11:49 |
| Dr_willis | yao_ziyuan, a normal user can alter their own files. thats it. | 11:49 |
| zeno | yao_ziyuan: they need root | 11:49 |
| obnibolongo | yao_ziyuan, no | 11:49 |
| obnibolongo | yao_ziyuan, but never understimate the power of social engineering | 11:50 |
| zeno | are there any linux virii atm? | 11:50 |
| yao_ziyuan | well, actually, i just woke up, after dreaming exactly that windows scenario | 11:50 |
| obnibolongo | yao_ziyuan, I don't know how easy it is to install a .deb with a binary setuid root | 11:50 |
| obnibolongo | yao_ziyuan, but shouldn't be too hard | 11:50 |
| LebLinux | hello, I just updated the packages on Hardy and the Update Manager is showing me 1 Distribution update called: "libgtk1.2" in Grey, I can't update it any ideas why? | 11:50 |
| yao_ziyuan | bill gates is bin laden in the binary world | 11:50 |
| zeno | yao_ziyuan: nah totally different; he wants money; laden wants to spread religion | 11:51 |
| yao_ziyuan | and/or in collaboration with FBI/CIA | 11:51 |
| obnibolongo | yao_ziyuan, and do note that exploits live the vmsplice() thingy appear from now and then to allow local privilege escalation, e.g., be root without password | 11:51 |
| yao_ziyuan | bill gates can get money from CIA/FBI/DOD budgets | 11:51 |
| yao_ziyuan | for his contribution to global exploitation | 11:51 |
| icesword | dod | 11:51 |
| g0th | hi | 11:52 |
| g0th | I just upgraded my ubuntu and I still have several issues | 11:52 |
| zeno | yao_ziyuan: i wouldnt doubt they got some for putting in back doors, but how do they contribute to global exploitation | 11:52 |
| zeno | !ask | g0th | 11:52 |
| ubotu | g0th: 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. :-) | 11:52 |
| icesword | lol | 11:53 |
| alado | how do i force my 2 extra internal hdd's to shut down/spin down, i had it working before but forgot about how i did it, as i remember it i set some parameters for them in a terminal. | 11:53 |
| obnibolongo | Bill Gates is a person who wants money and to have a good life. Do not underestimate him and others like him, though they may have the so called "wrong" motivations, they do work(ed) hard to get where they are. That serves as no excuses to they possible bad behaviour, but they do deserve some credit, even if some of the credit is due to someone else not doing their jobs well | 11:53 |
| zeno | alado: unmounting them will do it | 11:53 |
| g0th | for starters the kernel. I copied .config from my old kernel configuration to the new kernel source, did make menuconfig (did some modifications) and then run make-kpkg binary-arch but it failed with the following message: http://rafb.net/p/z4fgSa94.html | 11:54 |
| zeno | alado: or a mount option (read manpage) | 11:54 |
| alado | zeno: no, i want them to automatically spin down whe they are not in use | 11:54 |
| otarid | anyone got 8.04 to detect nvidia cards at start up? I tried enabling restricted drivers, reconfiguring xserver, using the binary, using envy, modifying xorg.conf, but I keep getting into a low graphics mode when I boot. I'm using the -14 kernel version from the grub menu because I couldn't get my 3945 network card to work with the newer kernel :< | 11:54 |
| LebLinux | hello, I just updated the packages on Hardy and the Update Manager is showing me 1 Distribution update called: "libgtk1.2" in Grey, I can't update it any ideas why? | 11:55 |
| astro76 | alado: you probably used hdparm or sdparm | 11:55 |
| obnibolongo | otarid, 3945 working nice here | 11:55 |
| zeno | otarid: yes, but it did automatically so dont know how to help :( | 11:55 |
| obnibolongo | otarid, 2.6.24-16-generic | 11:55 |
| relix | Hey | 11:55 |

| alado | astro76: yes thats it! thnx i'll look into it again | 11:55 |
| jsoftw | How do I make my right hand alt work the same as the left hand alt? I notice in emacs the right hand alt does not work | 11:55 |
| otarid | obnibolongo: nvidia works with that but then I can't get the network card to work (no wireless) | 11:55 |
| g0th | hmm then my whole compiz setup is totally messed up. I just saw white rectangles instead of windows/bars. So I did "metacity --replace". If I open new windows then they öppl better but there are still the strange white window decorations around | 11:55 |
| jsoftw | whereas the left hand one is fine.. | 11:55 |
| relix | migration assistance is not detecting the users on windows xp | 11:56 |
| g0th | s/öppl/look/ | 11:56 |
| obnibolongo | otarid, 3945 working nice here, in 2.6.24-16-generic | 11:56 |
| relix | anyone know what I can do to troubleshoot this? | 11:56 |
| otarid | obnibolongo: not for me :( | 11:56 |
| zeno | otarid: try ndiswrapper, and your windows driver | 11:56 |
| alang_babega | HI room... i need some help in indonesian language... Pleease..!!! | 11:56 |
| obnibolongo | otarid, hardy 8.04 final? | 11:56 |

| otarid | obnibolongo: yes | 11:56 |
| otarid | zeno: ndiswrapper didn't work | 11:57 |
| obnibolongo | zeno, he shouldn't have, 3945 is fully supported by iwl3945 driver | 11:57 |
| carl- | my mother uses the nvidia driver and made an upgrade yesterday to hardy .. after that the resolution seems to have gone crazy and is just really small now .. | 11:57 |

| minimec | sorry to repeat myself... I need to set gdm to option 'reload' as default behavior when I logout, instead of restart... I do not find something in gdm.(custom).conf. Do you know, where I can find this option? | 11:58 |
| carl- | Darkchef: oops .. not a good option .. i support my mother remote .. through ssh | 11:59 |
| otarid | that gives me nothing, obnibolongo | 11:59 |

| zeno | sofiankr1: do find <the location of your cd> -iname '*.inf' | 11:59 |
| Darkchef | carl - the live cd of hardy booted fine on my pc, when gutsy used to give me strange resolutions | 11:59 |
| otarid | obnibolongo: I'm on the -14-generic kernel though | 11:59 |
| obnibolongo | otarid, dmesg shows nothing ? | 11:59 |
| Darkchef | carl - lol oh dear ! | 11:59 |

| zeno | virus92: what do you mean it doesnt load? wheres it get stuck? might be worth it to install hardy, since you were still at 6.06 | 12:06 |
| LebLinux | hello, I just updated the packages on Hardy and the Update Manager is showing me 1 Distribution update called: "libgtk1.2" in Grey, I can't update it any ideas why? | 12:06 |
| zeno | andycaass: wardriving? | 12:06 |
| zeno | LebLinux: what does sudo apt-get update error say | 12:07 |
| LebLinux | zeno: nothing | 12:07 |
| zeno | upgrade sorry | 12:08 |

| x0x | !webmin | 12:08 |
| ubotu | webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead. | 12:08 |
| zeno | does it give a reason? | 12:09 |
| zeno | try with a -f | 12:09 |
| LebLinux | ok | 12:09 |

| gavinreddrop | Hello all, I have just upgraded to 8.04 fresh install, and I am having trouble with the sound. I had the same trouble with 7.10 but was hoping that 8.04 would fix the problem. When I click on the volume control I get the following error: The volume control did not find any elements and/or devices to control. This means either that you don't have the right GStreamer plugins installed, or that... | 12:14 |
| gavinreddrop | ...you don't have a sound card configured. After that error is displayed I get this error when I click on it: No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found. I have searched though the forums with no avail and now I am here.... Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.. | 12:14 |
| LebLinux | zeno: no it doesn't do it ... still kept back | 12:14 |
| sofiankr1 | zeno: there's just one problem, the wireless thing on my computer is not lighted up... | 12:14 |
| gavinreddrop | by the way I am a n00b | 12:14 |
| livingdaylight | koudelka, you de man.... | 12:14 |
| dreamcoder | ok not trying to start any arguments, but I like gnome and kde and cant decide which one | 12:14 |
| zeno | LebLinux: sorry i dont know :( try ##linux | 12:14 |
| koudelka | livingdaylight, np :) | 12:14 |
| dreamcoder | i dont want to install both | 12:14 |
| emorris | gavinreddrop: hav you enabled extra repositories | 12:14 |
| livingdaylight | koudelka, why did you say in your case? you not using gnome? | 12:15 |
| jimqode | dreamcoder, then use fluxbox :) | 12:15 |
| Fritzel | is virtualbox processing power dynamic? | 12:15 |
| dreamcoder | havent tried that | 12:15 |
| crashanddie | dreamcoder, Don't go there | 12:15 |
| jimqode | dreamcoder, it was a joke | 12:15 |
| dreamcoder | i cant decide between ubuntu or kubuntu | 12:15 |
| sofiankr1 | zeno: how do I switch it on? | 12:15 |
| dreamcoder | ubuntu seems more refined | 12:15 |
| zeno | sofiankr1: not sure, maybe it just lights up when you are connected? | 12:15 |
| crashanddie | dreamcoder, if you need help finding out which one to use, go to #gnome and #kde and ask them why you should use it | 12:16 |
| livingdaylight | dreamcoder, its a tough choice i agree | 12:16 |
| dreamcoder | ok | 12:16 |
| sofiankr1 | dreamcoder: I tried Kubuntu, really did not like it | 12:16 |
| koudelka | livingdaylight, no, but if you insert cd's or something you change the preferred application menu. but for opening a file with a special program you rightclick and go to preferences | 12:16 |
| silentlamb | i prefer gnome | 12:16 |
| sofiankr1 | zeno: no, it used to light up at all times | 12:16 |
| livingdaylight | koudelka, gotcha | 12:16 |
| silentlamb | its lightweight compared to kde | 12:16 |
| dreamcoder | i like the refinement of gnome but like the fuctionaility or kde | 12:16 |
| koudelka | livingdaylight, i just was too fast reading your question :P | 12:16 |
| Fritzel | gnome is ugly >< but it works, therefore is my choice | 12:16 |

| crashanddie | dreamcoder, stop it | 12:16 |

| livingdaylight | koudelka, hehe... fast and furious in here :) | 12:16 |
| livingdaylight | dreamcoder, gnome is not completely functional | 12:17 |
| sofiankr1 | dreamcoder: the best kde distro in my opinion is mepis | 12:17 |
| zeno | sofiankr1: try the steps normally; and see what errors are (dont really know much about your comp sry) | 12:17 |
| dreamcoder | ok | 12:17 |

| errpast | silentlamb, that's not fun, the effects are cool On a previous box of mine (5150 Dell) it would crash it. | 12:20 |

| silentlamb | so wat do suggest | 12:21 |
| brakkvatn | Ceox: ok | 12:21 |
| linux__alien | koudelka, i installed 8.04 and installed Nvidia Driver now i just get a white screen. I have a Nvidia Geforce 8400 M GS Card | 12:21 |

| errpast | silentlamb, I'm thinkingt | 12:21 |
| koudelka | silentlamb, have you tried reinstalling vlc? | 12:21 |
| linux__alien | koudelka, this card worked perfectly with 7.10 | 12:21 |
| errpast | silentlamb, not sure about the vlc conflict | 12:21 |
| sofiankr1 | goodbye everyone! | 12:21 |
| crashanddie | thouters, yesterday someone mounted the CD on a loopback device, and installed from there | 12:21 |
| silentlamb | yeah purged reinstalld it working now | 12:21 |
| errpast | silentlamb, maybe lspic the video board, then google that | 12:21 |

| silentlamb | lspci | 12:21 |
| crashanddie | thouters, couldn't be more specific than that though, sorry | 12:21 |
| zeno | linux__alien: when do you get the white screen? i fixed an nvidia problem by using --nosplash | 12:21 |
| errpast | silentlamb, for the think pad, there is a great "think wiki" site that addresses this sort of thing | 12:21 |
| thouters | crashanddie: thanks. will check the logs | 12:21 |
| silentlamb | ok | 12:22 |
| errpast | silentlamb, yes, that will list the details of your hardware | 12:22 |

| errpast | silentlamb, | 12:22 |

| joemac | Did an upgrade, now it can't find /etc/fstab, so can't boot | 12:23 |
| koudelka | linux__alien, try and uninstall the nvidia driver and reinstall it, alternatively you can use envyng to install the latest nvidia driver | 12:23 |
| silentlamb | ok | 12:23 |
| crashanddie | joemac, at what point does it stop working, does it still boot (electrically), do you get to Grub, maybe even a splash screen ? | 12:23 |
| errpast | silentlamb, about 2 years. It's great, but the hardware stuff can be very frustrating | 12:23 |
| linux__alien | koudelka, did that too but no use | 12:23 |
| brakkvatn | Ceox: Do you know what chipset your card has? | 12:23 |
| emorris | gavinreddrop: can you not get any sound, have you tired testing the sound from system>prefs>sound | 12:23 |
| crashanddie | joemac, boot on a livecd, mount the disk, and edit /etc/fstab until it works | 12:23 |
| Ceox | no | 12:23 |
| linux__alien | koudelka, the problem still exists | 12:23 |
| joemac | I get the splash screen then something calling itself ASH | 12:23 |
| silentlamb | yeah i know been away from linux for about 3yrs | 12:23 |

| linux__alien | koudelka, is it possible to get the 7.10 driver ? | 12:24 |
| brakkvatn | Ceox: Does the device show on the NetworkManager in the top right corner? | 12:24 |
| zombie_monkey | so guys, I have "PAND_ENABLED=1" in /etc/default/bluetooth but there's only "auto eth0" in /etc/network/interfaces ... and runnign pand from the command line does absolutely nothing with any kind of parameter. but it does give me sugegstions for parameters and the man page is there :/ | 12:24 |

| * linux__alien is going back to Fedora or 7.10 | 12:28 | |
| silentlamb | now we get to how to use tools like kismet, aircrack, wireshark etc | 12:28 |
| brakkvatn | crlcan81: Booting from a usb stick should work | 12:29 |
| crashanddie | crlcan81, there is a new functionality on the CDs that allows you to install Linux from within windows, you might want to look into that, just mount the CD with a virtual CD player (daemontools comes to mind) | 12:29 |
| errpast | silentlamb, with the "N" standard, wireless is becoming as fast as wired | 12:29 |
| crlcan81 | *s8ghs* I'm sorry but I ain't got those | 12:29 |
| koudelka | linux__alien, in that post you got sent it seems to be a fix | 12:29 |
| crlcan81 | there's NO way to mount the ISO like a CD? | 12:29 |
| emorris | gavinreddrop: can't help, sorry | 12:29 |
| thouters | is it possible to install hardy, from gutsy on a new LVM volume using debootstrap ? | 12:29 |
| linux__alien | koudelka, :o | 12:29 |
| linux__alien | koudelka, which one ? | 12:29 |
| zeno | crlcan81: -o loop | 12:29 |
| linux__alien | koudelka, whats the fix | 12:29 |
| errpast | silentlamb, yes. those are cool tools. the place i used to work used kismet in an embedded way. | 12:29 |
| crashanddie | crlcan81, of course you can | 12:29 |
| crlcan81 | Otherwise I gotta go through a bunch of bitchiness from my mom | 12:29 |
| zeno | crlcan81: lrn to google =op | 12:29 |
| gavinreddrop | emorris: that is ok thanks for your assistance | 12:29 |
| silentlamb | brb, giv me a sec | 12:29 |
| brakkvatn | crlcan81: Use deamontools | 12:30 |
| crlcan81 | cause I got the WORST version of Linux one time. | 12:30 |
| brakkvatn | crlcan81: That will work | 12:30 |
| errpast | silentlamb, security and wireless is a hot area. I've been in 802.11, but am learning about wimax | 12:30 |
| brakkvatn | crlcan81: Daemon tools for windoze | 12:30 |

| Hajuu | trying to build a source download | 12:30 |
| errpast | huibuh, whassup | 12:30 |
| crashanddie | crlcan81, please stop complaining, we don't do psychic support, look into daemon tools and the app that allows you to install from within windows | 12:30 |
| huibuh | errpast: nothin | 12:30 |
| brakkvatn | crlcan81: Are you paying attention? | 12:30 |

| crashanddie | joemac, did you boot on a livecd ? | 12:32 |
| zeno | koudelka: more than i did i just googled =-p | 12:32 |
| crashanddie | joemac, are you on the livecd atm ? | 12:32 |
| linux__alien | koudelka, i just have to run sh nvida-file right | 12:33 |
| linux__alien | ? | 12:33 |
| huibuh | errpast: proprietary drivers activated? | 12:33 |

| materthron | hey guys! why does " sudo echo "blacklist intel_rng" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist" give me a permission denied error? | 12:33 |
| errpast | huibuh, good point. It was Intel graphics I think. | 12:33 |
| koudelka | linux__alien, yes, but you have to do it from commandline, and close gnome and xserver | 12:33 |
| Bits | how is the transition between gutsy and hardy like? are there many known issues? | 12:33 |
| used1 | greetings 2 all | 12:33 |
| zeno | materthron: add a sudo to the front | 12:33 |
| errpast | huibuh, are you on 8.04? | 12:34 |
| used1 | any humans around? | 12:34 |

| niktu | :) | 12:34 |
| used1 | any predators around? | 12:34 |
| linux__alien | koudelka, will do that | 12:34 |
| MttJocy | joemac, It is *NOT* /dev/hd1 it will be /dev/hda or /dev/sda depending on the disk type, try those. | 12:34 |
| emorris | joemac: specify the mount direcotry eg mount /dev/sda1 /media/sda1 | 12:34 |
| huibuh | errpast: what about an apt-get install restricted-manager (don't really know how it's spelled) and yes i'm @ 8.04 | 12:34 |
| linux__alien | koudelka, and see whether it works and be right back here | 12:34 |
| errpast | huibuh, I loaded it up yesterday on my new Lenovo 3000. Wireless and Berly effects great. Need to work on the sound. Alsa driver issue. I need to backport I think | 12:34 |
| joemac | tried both those too | 12:34 |
| linux__alien | hopefully with it working | 12:34 |
| used1 | exit | 12:34 |

| LebLinux | crashanddie: there are packages that are kept back, when you use sudo apt-get upgrade. | 12:35 |
| errpast | huibuh, do you run a laptop. I've just bought a Lenovo. Like I say, it's pretty good with 8.04, except sound. I think that will be a half hour task with backports to get working. | 12:35 |
| errpast | huibuh, but the stuipid fan is noisy ;( | 12:35 |

| mypapit | GunbladeIV, i'm always here | 12:36 |
| emorris | joemac: pastebin the output for cat /etc/fstab | 12:36 |
| materthron | zeno: "lsmod | grep intel" just yields sound stuff | 12:36 |
| crashanddie | joemac, yes, you'll be able to have a working linux environment, mount the disks, and work on the files directly | 12:36 |
| errpast | huibuh, desktops so much easier from the linux hardware perspective | 12:36 |
| crashanddie | joemac, which will allow you to correct previous mistakes, or errors | 12:36 |
| huibuh | errpast: have you tried to use "alsa-mixer" on shell? | 12:36 |

| Bits | errpast: i'm running gutsy on an asus and it runs like a dream after you get through the first few humps | 12:36 |
| huibuh | errpast: :) | 12:37 |
| theom3ga | I've updated my gutsy to hardy and now the nvidia driver doesn't work... I'm at 800x600 | 12:37 |
| materthron | zeno: root under ubuntu? isn't this replaced by sudo? | 12:37 |
| theom3ga | I have already tried nvidia-glx-new but it doesn't work | 12:37 |
| Zacaa | haha | 12:37 |
| Zacaa | theom3ga: | 12:37 |
| Zacaa | i've got the exact same problem | 12:37 |
| Zacaa | what card do you have? | 12:37 |
| Zacaa | i've tried everything | 12:37 |
| errpast | Bits, cool. The one bump for me right now with Lenovo is the sound. But seems like a well knows issues that a backports will address. I just ahven't taken the time | 12:37 |
| FloodBot2 | Zacaa: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 12:37 |

| Zacaa | nothing seems to work for me :) | 12:38 |
| crashanddie | errpast, I have a Samsung R55, and a samsung Q35, and never had any problems | 12:38 |

| koksal | kimse yokm | 12:38 |

| koudelka | materthron, sudo stands for super user do. so it's just a way to run a single command as superuser without having to login as it for a moment | 12:38 |
| zeno | Zacaa: try --nosplash; and stop fucking flodding | 12:38 |
| huibuh | errpast: any improvements by using alsa-mixer? | 12:38 |

| joemac | ok, no such file or directory | 12:39 |
| emorris | MttJocy: he tried that, he got not found | 12:39 |
| errpast | huibuh, it's a good suggestion. But right now, I'm an an old dell 5150, not the Lenovo. I'm in transition, and don't want the Dell to know what is really happening :) | 12:39 |
| MttJocy | emorris, He tried cat/etc/fstab not the same thing | 12:39 |

| theom3ga | emorris: I'll give it a try | 12:42 |
| joemac | cat /etc/fstab : no such file or directory | 12:42 |

| zeno | theom3ga: or just do sudo vim /etc/X11/xorg.conf and put the res you want in front | 12:43 |
| crashanddie | joemac, could you issue "mount" and give us the results ? | 12:43 |
| materthron | zeno: i've got an ati and i'm using the restricted driver | 12:43 |

| joemac | is that what you mean? | 12:44 |

| crashanddie | joemac, yeah | 12:44 |
| errpast | Bits, was sound ok on the A8j? | 12:44 |
| juuj | HI! | 12:44 |
| emorris | Zacaa: don't know, sorry, bit of an odd one | 12:44 |
| crashanddie | joemac, could you fdisk /dev/sda ? | 12:44 |
| crashanddie | joemac, then hit "p" | 12:44 |
| joemac | ok, hang on | 12:44 |
| crashanddie | joemac, and tell me what it finds | 12:45 |
| MttJocy | joemac, Can you do this command for me | 12:45 |
| MttJocy | ls /dev/hd* /dev/sd* | 12:45 |
| crashanddie | MttJocy, he's going to find a bunchload of files, no use, he has to type everything again | 12:45 |
| materthron | zeno: how do i find that out? | 12:45 |
| errpast | Bits, thanks. the EEEPC 9 inch looks fun. By getting a low end Lenovo for $600 (another $100 for 4 MB), I figure I can spend another $300 or $400 on the EEEPC | 12:45 |
| joemac | comes up: fdisk not found | 12:45 |
| Bits | errpast: sound and graphics worked fine out of the box. networking took a bit of tweaking and advanced graphics took a bit of xorg tweaking. fan still needs to be tweaked and instability occurs with advanced desktop effects (something with the window titles) | 12:45 |
| errpast | Bits, I'm waiting for the 9 inch model though. It's only 2 pound! | 12:45 |
| crashanddie | joemac, djeezus | 12:46 |
| ghostlines | does leaving modules in your kernel slow you down, or only leave the kernel a bit larger? | 12:46 |
| zeno | -g2g nite all | 12:46 |
| errpast | Bits, interesting. When you say fan tweaking, are you talking BIOS? | 12:46 |
| crashanddie | ghostlines, the whole point of using modules is that they're *not* in the kernel | 12:46 |
| zeno | materthron: try the version referenced in post 35 | 12:46 |
| MttJocy | joemac, Just do that command I said, and tell me what it comes up with | 12:46 |
| zeno | lates | 12:46 |
| errpast | Bits, I think my Lenovo 3000 needs a fan tweak, but my googling tells me maybe BIOS related. I haven't dug in there yet. It makes this louzy clicking sound. I thought maybe it was broken | 12:46 |
| errpast | Bits, But when I GG, I see others have fan issues | 12:46 |
| materthron | zeno: i'm using an ati, not an nvidia. the post you're refering to is for nvidia | 12:47 |
| MttJocy | joemac, ls /dev/hd* /dev/sd* | 12:47 |
| g0th | re | 12:47 |
| g0th | I had a crash, sorry | 12:47 |
| crashanddie | g0th, "re" doesn't mean anything in english ;) | 12:47 |
| crashanddie | g0th, keep your french MSN habits out of here :P | 12:48 |
| errpast | Bits, I've got 30 days. But I'm trying not to get too obsessive about it, as I'm out of work as of a week ago, and need to job search. Much as I'd rather hack | 12:48 |
| g0th | huh? | 12:48 |
| joemac | /dev/sd* /dev/sd* :no such file or directory | 12:48 |
| g0th | that's not a french MSN habits but anyway | 12:48 |

| Drezard | how do i check what processes are running? | 12:49 |
| daedra | why can't mpd start at boot?! | 12:49 |
| errpast | grrr, I googled it, and found a workaroud. Let me see if I can find it again | 12:49 |
| crashanddie | Drezard, ps -A ? | 12:49 |
| brakkvatn | Ceox: Hello how did it go? | 12:49 |
| MajSh | can someone help me activate the tvout on my t42 under hardy? | 12:49 |
| Drezard | crashanddie, and how do i kill a process? | 12:49 |
| errpast | grrr, My symptom was that when I went to install, it failed. about 4 files couldn't be found | 12:49 |
| grrr | erpast, thankx very much | 12:49 |
| Bits | errpast: i've found that linux is just as fun without all the bells and whistles, and i gave up on the advanced graphics. no adv. graphics means less heat means less fan means less problems -- and it's perfectly serviceable | 12:49 |
| Ceox | brakkvatn: i pm'd you | 12:50 |
| errpast | grrr, this was true for the three choices for flash. adobe. and the other two | 12:50 |
| MttJocy | Drezard, kill -9 <processid> | 12:50 |
| livingdaylight | someone said something to me? (can't scroll back up far enough) | 12:50 |
| grrr | errpast, the nonfreeflash plugins dont works too. | 12:50 |
| joneskoo | how can I debootstrap ubuntu 8.04 with only using Debian Etch? | 12:50 |
| errpast | Bits, Smart move. It's easy to get fanatical about it. I know I do. But in the end, as long as I have net, Firefox, xchat, vim I'm pretty happy | 12:50 |
| joemac | hrgsfgh | 12:51 |

| dns-en | Hi Im looking for some help with these damn ATI drivers been trying for 2 days just get blck screen after enabling tried following All the tutorials on the forums already | 12:51 |

| crashanddie | joemac, /dev/hda1 ? | 12:51 |
| MttJocy | joemac, Okay try ls /dev/hda1 | 12:51 |
| errpast | http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2007/12/31/why-cant-ubuntu-install-adobe-flash-player-anymore/ | 12:51 |
| trentster | openfiler | 12:51 |
| oholiks | joneskoo: try getting debootstrap package from ubuntu packges and extract the template file from it | 12:52 |
| joneskoo | oholiks: is the template file the only difference? | 12:52 |
| joemac | /dev/hda1 not found | 12:52 |
| crashanddie | joemac, good, good | 12:52 |
| joneskoo | oholiks: in the man page it warns that debian stable's debootstrap might be too old for debian sid, presumably that applies for ubuntu too | 12:52 |
| errpast | grrr, that's the link I found yesterday. BUT....the link isn't working today. I didn't succeed getting Flash with 8.04, but I didn't try. I was just researching a few things that didn't work, and was going to try them all today | 12:52 |
| joemac | Good? | 12:52 |
| oholiks | joneskoo: used to be atleast | 12:52 |
| crashanddie | joemac, well at least it's consistent | 12:52 |
| joemac | lol | 12:52 |
| samalex | anyone familiar with netatalk? I'm trying to copy data from OSX to Ubuntu Server 8.04, but Netatalk is passing the free space of the user's home directory and not the HD mounted within. | 12:52 |
| oholiks | joneskoo: pin unstable debootstrap and use that one? | 12:53 |
| MttJocy | Okay I'm lost, unless there is something else a hard drive can show up as, seams it is not detecting it. | 12:53 |
| joneskoo | oholiks: perhaps. I haven't did pinning so I'll just try the template first | 12:53 |
| samalex | ... the /home partition only has 5 gigs of free space but I've mounted a 300 gig HD within my home directory to backup stuff to. OSX shows only 5 gigs free so when I try to copy stuff into this 300 gig mounted drive, says not enough space | 12:53 |
| crashanddie | joemac, I think you should try to get a CD/DVD and try again, because your install seems pretty damaged | 12:53 |
| grrr | ok, man. merci quand même | 12:54 |
| * MttJocy agrees | 12:54 | |
| MajSh | anyone? please help - enable TV Out for "Radeon Mobility 7500" on IBM T42 under Hardy? | 12:54 |

| MttJocy | joemac, Yeah | 12:55 |
| crashanddie | joemac, http://releases.ubuntu.com/hardy/ubuntu-8.04-desktop-i386.iso.torrent | 12:55 |
| MttJocy | That assumes he has bit torrent set up of course | 12:55 |
| errpast | Anyone have a Lenovo with sound problems on 8.04? | 12:55 |
| huibuh | :D | 12:56 |
| crashanddie | MttJocy, it assumes his other computer works, and he cares about not downing the servers more | 12:56 |
| Drezard | whats mozilla 3 beta 5 installed as? like what package? | 12:56 |
| thebigham | how do i auto mount the windows partition on startup? | 12:56 |
| joemac | thank you for your time crashhanddie and mttJocy, I will see what I can do with a torrent downloaded cd:) | 12:57 |
| Drezard | whats mozilla 3 beta 5 installed as? like what package? | 12:57 |
| crashanddie | dreamnid, firefox or firefox-3.0 | 12:57 |
| MttJocy | crashanddie, Yeah, now if only their desktop upgrade tool would let you select torrent instead of HHTP | 12:57 |
| MttJocy | HTTP* | 12:57 |
| MajSh | thebigham: just add it to the /etc/fstab (and install ntfs-3g if it's needed) | 12:57 |
| Drezard | crashanddie, thanks | 12:57 |
| Drezard | crashanddie, neither worked :( | 12:57 |
| crashanddie | Drezard, what are you trying to achieve ? | 12:58 |
| grrr | errpest, thank you, nice day all | 12:58 |
| Daisuke_Ido | immortality! | 12:58 |
| crashanddie | MttJocy, we talked about that on #ubuntu-release-party 'bout that issue the day before yesterday | 12:58 |
| Drezard | crashanddie, dont worry found it :) thanks | 12:58 |
| daedra | has anyone in here got mpd running in hardy? | 12:58 |
| MttJocy | crashanddie, Oh? | 12:59 |
| MttJocy | crashanddie, But they decided against it? | 12:59 |
| crashanddie | MttJocy, there are in fact a few problems with it | 12:59 |
| g0th | when I run make-kpkg binary-arch in linux-2.6.24/ I get at the end: | 12:59 |
| bumcheekcity | hi guys. quick question. can you use wubi to install the x64 version of ubuntu on x86 Vista? obviously, I have a 64-bit capable CPU | 12:59 |
| g0th | Makefile:526: /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.24/arch/xen/Makefile: No such file or directory | 12:59 |
| g0th | make[1]: *** No rule to make target `/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.24/arch/xen/Makefile'. Stop. | 12:59 |
| MttJocy | crashanddie, Such as? | 12:59 |
| crashanddie | MttJocy, first of all, we would need to take a few choices, like do we make one big package with everything in it for the upgrade, or one .torrent per package ? | 13:00 |
| daedra | paste!|goth | 13:00 |
| daedra | oops | 13:00 |
| g0th | hmm and I can't set the background anymore somehow | 13:00 |
| crashanddie | MttJocy, both are good, because one is better for the server, but the other is better for maintainability | 13:00 |
| daedra | !paste|g0th | 13:00 |
| ubotu | g0th: 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) | 13:00 |
| g0th | how do I change the background? | 13:00 |
| blame | how do you manage services on ubuntu? | 13:00 |
| MajSh | please anyone... i really need to get the TV OUT working.. it's the last thing that sends me back to windows.. :( | 13:00 |
| crashanddie | MttJocy, then of course, it would mean that the devs need to push yet another package, and pushing a release on bittorrent is way harder than just working behind the projectors and syncing HTTP/FTP mirrors | 13:01 |
| g0th | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64505/ | 13:01 |
| g0th | ubotu: that's the whole output | 13:01 |
| g0th | daedra sorry | 13:01 |
| crashanddie | MttJocy, it's cheaper, but it's harder, and we've seen it during the last couple days, even the tracker got downed by the amount of users | 13:02 |
| Ceo1 | hey | 13:02 |
| crashanddie | MttJocy, imagine what it would be if everyone did the same ? Also, bittorrent doesn't allow you to use local mirrors, so those who don't care would be using one download for each computer, instead of setting up a local mirror and downloading it once | 13:03 |
| Ceo1 | brakkvatn | 13:03 |
| Ceo1 | r u there? | 13:03 |
| g0th | how do I change my background image? | 13:03 |
| joomla_user | g0th, what are you building ? | 13:03 |
| m0ns00n | Anyone knows why eclipse can't connect to the net in hardy? | 13:03 |
| g0th | linux-2.6.24 | 13:03 |
| joomla_user | g0th, rightclick on desktop | 13:03 |
| g0th | I don't know why xen is mentioned | 13:03 |
| m0ns00n | Not installed from packages.. | 13:03 |
| MttJocy | crashanddie, One .torrent per package probably would not really be the best idea to be fair, torrent tends to not work as efficiently with many small files, however if you put it in one big torrent it would work better, and it is still possible to selectively download the .debs inside it (Azureus has the option I think all Bit Torrent clients do) | 13:03 |
| crashanddie | MttJocy, it's a nice idea, but it's pretty much flawed from the start, and we'd need to hack it big time before we could do something with it | 13:03 |
| lamothe | beardos: And there you are! | 13:04 |
| g0th | joomla_user: hmm I don't get anything if I right click | 13:04 |
| g0th | I don't have nautlius installed | 13:04 |
| g0th | nautilus | 13:04 |
| Fritzel | does anyone know if iTunes will succesfully sync with an ipod in a VM? | 13:04 |
| gavin__ | Hi, I have just upgraded to 8.04 and for some reason Ubuntu will no longer recognize my sound card (Intel 82801H - ICH8 Family (rev 02)), can anyone help | 13:04 |
| g0th | if I install nautilus my system gets so slow so since I never use it I removed it | 13:04 |
| joomla_user | g0th, what window manager do you use | 13:04 |
| zyx386 | why the forefox is standard work offline under Hardy? | 13:04 |
| crashanddie | MttJocy, yeah, but "selectively downloading the .debs" is pretty much counter productive, because you don't have it, and you don't share with others | 13:04 |
| g0th | compiz | 13:04 |
| silentlamb | errpast am bk | 13:04 |
| g0th | gnome/compiz | 13:05 |
| joeamined | hi | 13:05 |
| Yapsey | good day :> | 13:06 |
| g0th | joomla_user: I also installed drapes | 13:06 |
| joeamined | how can i install ubuntu from the live cd without launching gnome ? | 13:06 |
| silentlamb | errpast so wat do u do wit ur linux box | 13:06 |
| crashanddie | MttJocy, I think there's something else that worries them, we've all seen how updates get distributed on WoW, or any other update manager that uses bittorrent | 13:06 |
| MttJocy | crashanddie, Talking about local mirrors, I wish that squid didn't decide not to cache .debs if it had cached them would save having to download them all again for the other machine :| | 13:06 |
| gfather | guys anyone here has a vpn for god sake ?? ?? | 13:06 |
| Yapsey | joeamined: there's an alternate install CD | 13:06 |
| silentlamb | want to learn perl and python very important in security | 13:06 |
| crashanddie | MttJocy, like I said, it could be an awesome idea, but it really needs some work, I might write an essay about it or something ;) | 13:06 |
| joeamined | yapsey: is it possible from the live cd ? | 13:07 |
| Yapsey | don't know. maybe the second option in the booting menu? | 13:07 |
| crashanddie | MttJocy, I have a local mirror on my home network, I've uploaded more than 80Gig on release day ;) | 13:07 |
| cd-r | gavin__ : check here http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Main | 13:07 |
| Oetzi | hi there | 13:07 |
| jdolan | hi, if i don't have my CD handy, is there a way to force synaptic to download packages like g++? | 13:07 |
| Oetzi | i just upgraded to hardy and facing some problems now | 13:07 |
| Oetzi | first thing | 13:08 |
| Yapsey | jdolan: just using a network source? | 13:08 |
| gavin__ | the strange thing is that it works perfectly on 8.10 | 13:08 |
| Oetzi | ssh-agent seems not to work | 13:08 |
| jdolan | Yapsey, sure, how do i tell it to do that? | 13:08 |
| jdolan | just remove the CD from my sources list? | 13:08 |
| b33r_ | does anyone know where's iced tea java cache directory and how to change it? | 13:08 |
| silentlamb | yeah how can install ubuntu on and empty system with a bad crcrive | 13:08 |
| Oetzi | always get an error | 13:08 |
| MttJocy | (Unless there is some way to force it to cache them, but bit late now, already done the download on the one machine anyway, although if there was a way to force it would save wasted downloads when both computers have to download for the most part the same updates even with normal updates) | 13:08 |
| Yapsey | jdolan: place a # in front of your CD is the easiest way I guess :) | 13:08 |
| Oetzi | Could not open a connection to your authentication agent. | 13:08 |
| silentlamb | is there any solution to that problem | 13:08 |
| zyx386 | can every one tell me that? | 13:08 |
| silentlamb | seen the pendrive | 13:08 |
| jdolan | Yapsey, hah, why didn't i think of that? (just disabling the source), hehe :) | 13:09 |
| Yapsey | you're welcome :> | 13:09 |
| silentlamb | but the all need a functional OS to work | 13:09 |
| joneskoo | oholiks: hmh. I don't even see the script for 8.04 in ubuntu debootstrap. isn't it called hoary? | 13:09 |
| joneskoo | no hardy | 13:09 |
| MttJocy | Is that possible? to force squid to cache .debs instead of ignore them? (I assume the file names do change with each version of the package right) | 13:09 |
| zyx386 | why is FF Work offline standard? | 13:09 |
| g0th | so how do I change my background without nautilus? | 13:09 |
| Yapsey | zyx386: what's the problem? | 13:09 |

| MttJocy | crashanddie, I don't suppose there is some directive to do it just from the file extension and tell it to cache those no? | 13:11 |

| daniel_hh | Hello, yesterday I upgraded ubuntu 7.10 -> 8.04, but Firefox3 can't work with the old extension and ruined my profile so I can't go back to FF2. I removed the FF3 package and reinstalled FF2, but when I click on links on the desktop .. opera appears (which was installed, but didn't started as default). .. Setting the alternative for x-www-browser didn't worked, setting System>settings>prefered applications>browser to firefox didn't worked | 13:15 |
| daniel_hh | ... what can I do? | 13:15 |

| daniel_hh | lamothe: I doubleclick a link on the desktop or a link in thunderbird .. then starts opera. Did you mean that? In "Prefered applications" is now a userdefined setting (firefox -P daniel %s). | 13:28 |
| reiki | simas__, not the correct channel for that question | 13:28 |
| nethakz | simas__, you may want to try a programming channel. | 13:28 |
| crashanddie | Drezard, that's probably because of the umask that isn't set | 13:28 |
| simas__ | what channel i shoud use? | 13:28 |
| silent | timr92: did u see my message? | 13:28 |

| silent | idyllic: sure, 1 sec, let me copy it into pastebin | 13:29 |

| lamothe | daniel_hh: That's what I meant. Hmmm | 13:29 |
| icqnumber | simas__, ask this in the c++ channel /join ##c++, the diff is that one ist one function returns reference of an integer | 13:29 |

| r3d3y3 | How do I install the kernel source ? | 13:33 |
| patrik | Hi I'm experiencing some problems with evolution. I have a process called "evolution-data-server-2.22" which runs at 100% on one of my cores. Evolution seems to work as it should though. | 13:33 |
| silent | idyllic: in preferences i have 1600x1200, refresh 61gz, rotation normal, but i bet this info is not really that helpful, its all it says :/ | 13:34 |
| r3d3y3 | is it sudo apt-get install kernel-source-2.6.24 ... ? | 13:34 |
| justin420 | does anybody know if there are any upgrade issue from gutsy to hardy? I have a laptop with a broken cd/dvd drive; and it was VERY difficult to get gutsy installed.... | 13:34 |
| idyllic | silent: which graphic card? and monitor? | 13:34 |
| mluser-home | Which kernel do I need to be running to use all 4G of ram, right now I'm only detecting 3G of the 4 | 13:34 |
| mut80r | justin420: might be best to wait for a few weeks, have had several reports of upgrades failing | 13:34 |
| g0th | lamothe: anyway, thx for the information | 13:35 |
| g0th | another question | 13:35 |
| reiki | mluser-home, assuming your motherboard supports it... you probably want a 64-bit version of Ubuntu... not 32-bit | 13:35 |
| mut80r | mluser-home: you need a 64-bit machine and OS | 13:35 |
| Yapser | running a 64-bit distro instead of 32 mluser-home? (just slap me enormously if this is a Windows-only prob :>) | 13:35 |
| g0th | I tried to install my own custom kernel using make-kpkg | 13:35 |
| justin420 | mut80r: thanks allot! appreciate it.... saved me allot of headache. :) | 13:35 |
| daniel_hh | lamothe: sure.. but these settings doesn't seem to help :( | 13:35 |
| mluser-home | doesnt the kernel in pae mode detect 4G of ram even in 32 bit mode? | 13:35 |
| g0th | the usual installation works fine (ie. doing make, make modules, etc in linux-2.6.24) but when I run make-kpkg it always fails, etg with the following message: | 13:35 |
| g0th | http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64506/ | 13:35 |
| moorkook | hello everybody | 13:35 |
| mut80r | mluser-home: it may do, but it won't be able to address it all on a 32-bit machine/OS | 13:36 |

| jarle | How do I make a /etc/init.d/ script run as a normal user, and not as root? | 13:36 |
| mluser-home | Are there any known software incompatibilities with the 64bit version of ubuntu right now? | 13:36 |
| mut80r | Arand: google ubuntu live pen drive | 13:36 |
| askan1 | Is there w way to prnit only selected text in firefox? | 13:37 |
| g0th | and another question: compiz shows the window decoration only nicely for actively selected windows, the other window decoration aren't visible or look messed up | 13:37 |
| Arand | mut80r cheers | 13:37 |

| lamothe | daniel_hh: If you haven't already, can I recommend logging out/in. Maybe gconf is stuck. | 13:37 |

| chazco | Hi... ive just installed 8.04 onto my u200 laptop. It works okay except its slow to start. The stage where the "ubuntu" splash progress bar moves from side to side takes ages. Had no issues with Gusty. Any ideas? | 13:37 |
| idyllic | silent: lol, okay. Can you change your xorg.conf. Driver from vesa to nvidia? | 13:37 |

| Wibble- | I've got a real problem with Hardy - my sound card just stopped working! It was working this morning and now doesn't. No additional software was installed AFAIK. Pulse audo appears to be running and hasn't put anything in syslog. | 13:38 |
| idyllic | silent: back up your xorg.conf first in case there is problem later | 13:38 |
| mut80r | chazco: kernel improvements I think. happens to me too. then it goes to the normal loading bar | 13:38 |
| IntangibleLiquid | how do I define Fn F9 to be the touchpad enabler/disabler? | 13:38 |
| idyllic | silent: you got nvidia-glx-new driver installed i suppose? | 13:38 |
| adac | i deleteted the old sources.list file and added the new for the upgrade to hardy sith only hardy sources...but still when I call apt-get update it shows me that it fetches gutsy repositories. What is the problem here? | 13:38 |
| chazco | mut80r - It doesnt do it on my desktop though... seems odd to have a slower bootup on a more powerful machine | 13:38 |
| joeamined | hi | 13:38 |
| joeamined | is it possible to install ubuntu desktop edition without launching gnome ? | 13:39 |
| rsk | joeamined: use the alternative iso | 13:39 |
| g0th | hmpf, not much help here :( | 13:39 |
| r3d3y3 | What does this error mean ... checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables | 13:39 |
| joeamined | rsk: there's no way to do it with the desktop iso ? | 13:39 |
| rsk | nope | 13:39 |
| mut80r | chazco: I don't exactly know what the sideways scrolling bar is there for. disabling the splash screen, all I see is a 10-second or so pause before it gets going. | 13:39 |
| silent | idyllic: i dont think so | 13:40 |
| theone_ | joeamined, do you mean booting straight to a command line? | 13:40 |
| joeamined | theone: i mean installing ubuntu with command line | 13:40 |
| silent | idyllic: just installed this ubuntu and put xchat on it, nothing else | 13:40 |
| chazco | mut80r - Unsure what its for here also... on mine if i boot in recovery mode I see it pause over ACPI/SATA initalisation... | 13:40 |
| joeamined | because i don't have enough RAM (only 256), so i can't install with live cd booted | 13:40 |
| idyllic | silent: System - Administration - Hardware Driver =D enable the restrictive driver | 13:41 |
| dirtyrice | then you must use alternate cd like the guy above said | 13:41 |
| mut80r | chazco: are you using a SATA drive ? | 13:41 |
| joeamined | ok thanks | 13:41 |
| chazco | mut80r - Yep... but my desktop is also which doesnt have this issue | 13:41 |
| dirtyrice | i had to use it when installing on a 550 | 13:41 |
| theone_ | joeamined, you should just pick the install without booitng to the live cd option | 13:41 |
| daniel_hh | lamothe: I allread restarted X and the computer | 13:41 |
| mut80r | chazco: would be best not to mess with anything for now then until someone can tell us what it's there for. ;) | 13:41 |

| nwillett | sorry guys quick question - is pulse audio volume control enabled by default with 8.04 install? | 14:07 |
| lamothe | daniel_hh: Ha, go figure. | 14:07 |
| graingert | nwillet: no | 14:07 |
| graingert | nwillett: no | 14:07 |
| LinuxGuy1234 | g0th: Try the unmodified 2.6.24.3 tarball from ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.24.3.tar.bz2 | 14:08 |
| nwillett | is there an easy way to set it up? | 14:08 |
| graingert | Dante123: have you tried the irqpoll bootflag | 14:08 |
| mut80r | nwillet: double click the volume control, click file -> change device | 14:08 |
| MttJocy | pawan, Okay, try uninstalling the proprietary driver, restart, see if that works, then try reinstalling the proprietary one again if you want to, perhaps in the upgrade your install of that got messed up or something. | 14:08 |
| Dante123 | graingert yes I have disabled spash, and these are the results I see when it hangs. Most of the time it boots fine...but from time to time these errors | 14:08 |
| g0th | LinuxGuy1234: hmm does make-kpkg work at all then? | 14:08 |
| Dante123 | graingert what is the irqpoll bootflag and how do I use it? | 14:09 |
| pawan | how to uninstall | 14:09 |
| graingert | Dante123: when you load grub | 14:09 |

| kaminix | Is there any way to set a process not to use RAM/Swap at all and link it so some sort of swapfile? | 14:10 |
| LinuxGuy1234 | g0th: You can build the source by doing 'cp /boot/config-2.6.24.3* .config; make slientoldconfig; make' | 14:10 |
| graingert | Dante123: hit "e" to edit add "irqpoll" where splash used to be | 14:10 |
| Dante123 | lintel -yes you are the only one | 14:10 |
| g0th | LinuxGuy1234: this already works | 14:10 |

| danbhfive | kaminix: thats an interesting question, what are you trying to do? (I don't know, btw) | 14:11 |
| graingert | if there is a problem: no boot, if not boots fine | 14:11 |

| nikonlappy | exit | 14:12 |
| QuadF | it wont let me drag it | 14:12 |
| graingert | nwillet you need to download the gui | 14:12 |
| Abd | SuperLag Yes | 14:12 |
| MttJocy | lintel, Yes but which video output driver though? | 14:12 |
| Crofa | how to connect to another channel? | 14:12 |
| graingert | padevchooser | 14:12 |
| kaminix | danbhfive: I'm going to fsck my drive, been here done that and know it will take up LOADS of memory (enough to make my computer freeze) | 14:12 |
| mut80r | QuadF: drag from a blank space on the bar. not from a menu | 14:12 |
| nwillett | graingert you wouldn't happen to know what name the gui goes under? | 14:12 |
| SuperLag | Abd: I wonder what, if anything, that broke compatibility with. | 14:12 |
| larry_ | anyone know a link to install wine to install diablo2 on 8.04 | 14:13 |
| graingert | nwillett: run "padevchooser" apt will tell you what to install | 14:13 |
| Abd | SuperLag so far I have no complains | 14:13 |

| SuperLag | Abd: oh, you're saying *you* did it | 14:13 |
| larry_ | ok how do i get that | 14:13 |
| graingert | larry_: i think they have a script for diabalo | 14:13 |
| Abd | SuperLag Yes I did it | 14:13 |
| MttJocy | lintel, Okay, open up VLC or is it open already? | 14:13 |
| larry_ | ok | 14:13 |

| graingert | larry_ http://www.playonlinux.com/en/ | 14:14 |
| SuperLag | Abd: is there a howto that says how to get all of the included Ubuntu patches bundled in? or did you just do a vanilla kernel? | 14:14 |
| Abd | so if anyone has trouble with bcm 43xx compiling the 2.6.25 is a good option | 14:14 |
| graingert | larry_: http://www.playonlinux.com/en/script-16.html | 14:14 |
| mut80r | Abd: mine is working fine from hardware drivers manager. bcm4311 | 14:15 |

| bobbob1016 | Is there a fade setting anywhere other than compiz? I disabled the fade effect in compiz, but when I minimize a window, it still fades. Any ideas? | 14:16 |
| Abd | SuperLag I went to http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ and donwloaded the 2.6.25 compiled it with help from this site http://howtoforge.com/kernel_compilation_ubuntu | 14:16 |
| mut80r | bobbob1016: appearance, visual effects | 14:16 |
| daedra | how do you use upstart to rearrange the order in which daemons are started? | 14:16 |
| MttJocy | lintel, Then once in there, tick the advanced options, then in the list on the side open up the video part and click on Output modules. | 14:17 |
| chumii | hi everyone, does anyone know a tool like "mozbackup" to save bookmarks, passwords etc or the complete firefox profile? | 14:17 |

| Nomikos_ | pinging my remote ubuntu box - 49 packets transmitted, 3 packets received, 93% packet loss. what should I look at first? | 14:18 |
| bobbob1016 | mut80r, I know where that is, there isn't any choice for "fade" it just shows me settings for compiz, I want to disable the fade effect. I already disabled it everywhere in ccsm, which is what appearance->visual effects brings me to | 14:18 |
| stoneDJay | what should I do to fix it? | 14:18 |
| Nomikos_ | usually a pretty good cable connection, 15 mbit down, 1.5 mbit up | 14:18 |
| Satil | If I set ssh allow rules before entering a default deny - will the ssh allow still be used even though the default deny was added later? | 14:19 |
| Makgyver | ubuntu live CD will not install on powermac | 14:19 |
| mut80r | bobbob1016: If in ccsm, Effects -> Fading Windows is disabled, then it shouldn't be fading. must be another thing doing it. like a theme / alternate window decorator. | 14:19 |
| Makgyver | I have searched google for an answer but nothing is coming back | 14:19 |
| MttJocy | lintel, In that dialog which output module is selected in the box that says "Video output module"? | 14:19 |
| lintel | MttJocy ok; what do we look for? | 14:20 |
| jagggy | what is the default Java Development Kit 1.5 path ? | 14:20 |
| Fritzel | are there any RTS's that run on ubuntu and have good controls, good controls being the most important factor | 14:20 |
| kaminix | How would I use dd to create a 4 GB file? | 14:20 |
| LoCusF | damn nvidia should be working, the kernel module is working ok | 14:20 |
| Abd | SuperLag so I'm quite happy got my wireless back working | 14:20 |
| bobbob1016 | mut80r, Sorry, brain-fart I guess. I thought it was only minimize effect, not another plugin as well... Thanks | 14:20 |
| danbhfive | Fritzel: you could try glob2 | 14:21 |
| mut80r | bobbob1016: no problem :P | 14:21 |
| MttJocy | lintel, Did you go to the bit I said, under video (click the arrow to expand that item of the tree) you should see a bit that says output modules right? | 14:21 |
| Fritzel | not yet in fact I never heard of it | 14:21 |
| lintel | MttJocy video output is set to "default" | 14:21 |
| sharperguy | Is there any way to set the java plugin to output through pulseaudio so it doesn't dominate the sound card? | 14:21 |
| Makgyver | gentoo has installed on the box, but I would rather Ubuntu, any takers as to how I can get the installer to work? | 14:21 |
| Fritzel | danbhfive, I'll give it a shot, thanks for the suggestion | 14:21 |
| jagggy | what is the default JDK1.5 path ? | 14:22 |
| MttJocy | lintel, Right, just to test something try changing that to X11 (it is probably using XVideo as the default) | 14:22 |
| danbhfive | Fritzel: np, I hopes thats the correct name : ) | 14:22 |
| Musashiden | Hello everyone. I have a question and I hope someone can answer it. Why do flash videos lag so much on ubuntu+firefox? / how can I fix this? | 14:22 |
| Fritzel | danbhfive, well I found something by that name so it probably is | 14:22 |

| reiki | Hardy install completed... took 30 minutes from first boot of CD to final boot and then install of xchat. :) auto-detected and installed nvidia-glx-new and all appears to be working | 14:22 |
| Oetzi | are there any howtos for using seahorse instead of ssh-agent under fluxbox? | 14:22 |
| danbhfive | Fritzel: ya, I just checked too | 14:22 |
| mut80r | reiki: nice. | 14:22 |
| Musashiden | anybody? | 14:23 |
| Satil | kaminix: something like `dd if=/dev/zero bs=1024 count=4000000 of=~/4gb` | 14:23 |
| bartmon | stoneDJay: I think that's normal. It will be fixed when the kernel integrates video modesetting | 14:23 |
| duncan | kaminix : dd if=/dev/zero of=myharddisk.img bs=1024 count=0 seek=$[1024*1024*4] | 14:23 |
| reiki | mut80r, haven't installed World of Warcraft yet... that will be the show stopper for me if that don't work :) | 14:23 |
| lintel | MttJocy: ok: set to "X11 video output" -- but VLC is NOT crashing only Kaffeine which 1 use for DVB-T and Movie Player. will this affect them as well? | 14:23 |
| Musashiden | How can I make firefox use another flash plugin? | 14:23 |
| stoneDJay | bartmon: Its not normal... I had a usplash working great a few days before... | 14:23 |
| magnetron | Musashiden: which one are you thinking about switching to? | 14:24 |
| mut80r | reiki: damn. I have a dualboot. ubuntu for most stuff. ReactOS for windows apps | 14:24 |
| Arand | I've got this script: http://mibbit.com/pb/lUl2ef, how do I make it run at shutdown and reboot? Is "sudo update-rc.d this_script start 90 0 6" (after putting "this_script" in init.d) the right way to go?? | 14:24 |
| reiki | ReactOS? | 14:24 |
| Musashiden | magnetron: I don't know. some other one. the adobe one is lagging too much right now. | 14:24 |

| mut80r | reiki: www.reactos.org | 14:24 |
| Nomikos_ | what should I check first if remote Ubuntu box responds to < 10% of pings? | 14:24 |
| MttJocy | lintel, Sorry I thought you meant that they both were crashing. | 14:24 |

| [yzf600] | I tried to search the upgrade forum, but the reCAPTCHA is broken | 14:25 |
| magnetron | Musashiden: there is another one around. but it's not done yet. the reason your flash videos are slow is that Adobe made a crappy flash player | 14:25 |
| bartmon | ubuntung-pinoy: It hink you should disable desktop effects (compiz) | 14:25 |
| LadyNikon | magnetron: heh | 14:25 |
| lintel | MttJocy: VLC is running fine. But Kaffeine crashes especially after another window covered it or when switching to another desktop. | 14:25 |
| Yaps | meep | 14:25 |

| duncan | kaminix :no because you see theare is a block also 1024, so actualy 1024^3=GB :) | 14:26 |
| nwillett | it seems like hardy has changed the way you make vlc the default dvd player. Used to do change that through removable drives and media settings. Where do you go now? | 14:26 |
| Slappy | makgyver i did a google search for initramfs error and there was a forum that mentioned what someone tried running HH with the pci=nomsi command | 14:26 |
| MttJocy | lintel, Okay, first put VLC's output driver back to default then | 14:26 |
| pawan | nvidia drivers using envy | 14:26 |
| mut80r | nads: install grub on hd0 | 14:27 |
| Musashiden | nads: Did you configure your bios to read the IDE first? | 14:27 |
| magnetron | Musashiden: the other one is called gnash. i don't think you'll be happy with it, sadly. when my youtube videos are slow, i download them manually and watch them locally. | 14:27 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | nads: are u sure that boot priority in the BIOS is right? | 14:27 |

| MttJocy | lintel, Sorry about that, bit of wasted work but I misunderstood the problem. | 14:27 |
| nads | ubuntung-pinoy, i'll have another look... :) brb thanks | 14:27 |
| bartmon | ubuntung-pinoy: Don't know much about it... But when i switched between two X sessions with both compiz enhanced, the new X session would freeze | 14:27 |
| duncan | kaminix: welcome :) | 14:27 |

| virus92ita | my new problem: I intalled Hardy, booted the first time, logged on. It said that some proprietary drivers were needed (for my ATI radeon sapphire x1550 video card, I think). I installed those drivers and a blinking icon told me to reboot my pc. After that I can't use ubuntu anymore, I always get a black screen. I wonder what I have to do | 14:32 |

| tyler | Lieutenant: What happens when you choose the other options? | 14:33 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | andycaass: or System > Admin > System Monitor... | 14:33 |
| duncan | Lieutenant: burn again the image, i had also this problem, i don't no why :( | 14:33 |
| Lieutenant | tyler: Nothing at all | 14:33 |
| MttJocy | Johnmike, The ubuntu box is the main router in your network then? | 14:33 |
| Lieutenant | duncan: this is the third burn, from 2 comuters | 14:33 |
| LoCusF | in what service does the "VIA Padlock" belong to? | 14:33 |
| andycaass | ubuntung-pinoy: in sysmon i can see process name but its not the same as window name | 14:34 |
| Nomikos_ | what should I check first if remote Ubuntu box responds to < 10% of pings? | 14:34 |
| johnmike | MttJocy: No, I have a d-link 624m wireless router | 14:34 |
| tyler | Lieutenant: Check the md5sum of you .iso image; burn it agian and have your burning app verify it. | 14:34 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | andycaass: what app are u trying to quit? | 14:34 |
| schnootop | anyone know if in hardy we still need xorg-xserver-fglrx or do they have there own ? | 14:34 |
| andycaass | ubuntung-pinoy: software sources, it is stuck on pinging the best server, i used close but its been closing for 10 min | 14:35 |
| Daverocks | Nomikos_: can you login to the remote box? | 14:35 |
| Lieutenant | tyler: I did all that already, was wondering if thre is a known problem with kubuntu 8 and compaq computers | 14:35 |
| duncan | Lieutenant: then maybe the download was wrong, i think, before you burn somethink to cd, you try it, for example, you can try this boot image in virtualbox | 14:35 |
| MttJocy | johnmike, Ah, I thought you meant set up port forwarding on your ubuntu computer (as you did ask in the ubuntu channel) | 14:35 |
| Nomikos_ | Daverocks: no :-/ connection too slow for that, it halts at "debug1: SSH2_MSG_KEXINIT sent" | 14:35 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | andycaass: hav u tried the services manager/monitor? | 14:35 |
| tyler | Lieutenant: check the md5sum of the iso. | 14:35 |
| johnmike | MttJocy: ha ha, sorry! I asked here because maybe there's an Ubuntu specific site addressing it | 14:36 |
| Nomikos_ | Daverocks: even getting there takes about a minute, usually it logs in within a second | 14:36 |
| akt | Hi. This must be a FAQ but I'm worndering what's the advantage/disadvantage of using ubuntu server instead of Debian? | 14:36 |
| andycaass | ubuntung-pinoy: sorry? | 14:36 |
| virus92ita | anyone can help me with video card drivers? | 14:36 |
| mut80r | johnmike: some routers won't activate port forwarding until you disable DHCP. annoying, I know. | 14:36 |
| Daverocks | Nomikos_: heh, so general connection issues, not specifically with ping... what actual type of connection to the internet does it have? | 14:37 |
| Lieutenant | tyler: it passed the md5sum on my xp box | 14:37 |
| Nomikos_ | Daverocks: cable, about 15 mbit down, 1.5 mbit up. usually no problems at all | 14:37 |
| akt | Both will provide latest apps and anyway both the same Linux kernel. using the same aptitude | 14:37 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | andycaass: never mind the previous | 14:37 |
| Daverocks | Nomikos_: are there are boxen on the same connection you can check? | 14:37 |
| Nomikos_ | Daverocks: straight to modem, no router (anymore). possible that it was hacked somehow? | 14:37 |
| akt | what's the difference? | 14:37 |
| Nomikos_ | Daverocks: nope | 14:38 |
| akt | As a server. | 14:38 |
| Lieutenant | tyler: could the system be the problem? 1.2GHz celeron, 256MB Ram, 120Gig HDD | 14:38 |
| johnmike | mut80r: Ooooh....never tried that disabling that! | 14:38 |
| Daverocks | Nomikos_: hmm well it's a bit difficult to say that's it definitively a problem with ubuntu | 14:38 |
| Nomikos_ | Daverocks: I can go overthere which I will do even though it's a bit of a hassle.. what should I check for first, behind the thing? | 14:38 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | andycaass: what's the Process Name u get ? | 14:38 |
| jagggy | what is the default JDK1.5 path please, i need help :s ? | 14:38 |
| mut80r | johnmike: unless you know how to set a static IP and have the DNS addresses, DON'T disable DHCP. | 14:39 |
| Jarwo | sweety_girl | 14:39 |
| Daverocks | Nomikos_: if you can go over there and access the box, then you can do a lot of general connection tests | 14:39 |
| tyler | Lieutenant: Yes, you should have ~350MB of Ram to do the ive cd. | 14:39 |
| Fritzel | danbhfive, this is an interesting rts, from the first few minutes in the tutorial it seems like there isnt' much micro-management to worry about | 14:39 |
| andycaass | ubuntung-pinoy: i dont know process name, thats the thing... | 14:39 |
| Lieutenant | tyler: i just wanted to install it | 14:39 |
| jagggy | what is the default JDK1.5 path please, i need help :s ? | 14:39 |
| Lieutenant | tyler: the disk does work on my laptop, same specs, just a dell | 14:40 |
| Nomikos_ | Daverocks: yeah, bit afraid they'll come out the same.. :-/ anything I should look at after concluding it's not connecting? | 14:40 |
| johnmike | mut80r: Ha ha, no. I would look it all up first. How would I learn how to setup static IPs, figure out DNSs, and all that on Ubuntu? | 14:40 |
| tyler | Lieutenant: You should download the text-based alternate cd from the ubuntu site. | 14:40 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | andycaass: me neither.. but no Process Name in the SysMon that resembles the one u're looking for? | 14:40 |
| MttJocy | johnmike, Ah, well if you wait here a few minutes I'll be happy to talk to you see if I can come up with any ideas to help y ideas to help you but I just need to restart this computer first so will be gone a few minutes ok? | 14:40 |
| Nomikos_ | Daverocks: rebooted it only yesterday | 14:40 |
| jagggy | what is the default JDK1.5 path PLEASE? | 14:40 |
| andycaass | ubuntung-pinoy: nope... | 14:40 |
| johnmike | MttJocy: Sure! Thanks! | 14:40 |
| ciro | bebraw, i just installed awn and awn manager but there are no applets in the program | 14:40 |
| mut80r | johnmike: are you using network-manager? (the network icon in the top right corner) | 14:40 |
| Daverocks | Nomikos_: well it seems unstable rather than "not connecting"... i'd start up a packet sniffer on it and check what's going on... | 14:41 |
| MttJocy | Okay, see you in a few minutes. | 14:41 |
| jagggy | what is the default JDK1.5 path PLEASE? | 14:41 |
| bebraw | ciro, i suppose you have to get the plugins elsewhere | 14:41 |
| johnmike | mut80r: Yeah | 14:41 |
| Daverocks | Nomikos_: yeah if it's ppp, check those logs | 14:41 |
| Nomikos_ | Daverocks: good idea, I'll try that | 14:41 |
| Nomikos_ | Daverocks: ppp? | 14:41 |
| tyler | Lieutenant: The RAM requirement are just what they say on the Ubuntu web site, and could very welll be the reason of your problem. i've gotten the live cd to run on a box with 128MB!! | 14:41 |
| magnetron | ciro: you have to drag something to the icon area, IIRC | 14:41 |
| mut80r | johnmike: right click nm-applet, click connection information. copy down IP address, default route, subnet mask, and DNS addresses. | 14:41 |
| x0x | ok how to install eBox? | 14:41 |
| bebraw | has someone gotten blender work ok on hardy? it flickers between the app and bg here (using desktop fx) | 14:41 |

| Daverocks | Nomikos_: point-to-point... thought it might be the way it's going through the modem | 14:42 |
| virus92ita | my new problem: I just got Hardy, booted the first time, logged on. It said that some proprietary drivers were needed (ATI Accelerated Graphics Driver). I installed those drivers and a blinking icon told me to reboot my pc. Now I can't use ubuntu anymore, I always get a black screen before log on screen. Can someone help me? | 14:42 |

| Paavi2_0 | psych: ctrl+c | 14:45 |
| psych | i did that | 14:45 |
| Lieutenant | tyler: thanks for your help. | 14:45 |
| tyler | Leiutneant: Idont know if they ship out the alternate cd, either. | 14:45 |
| psych | but when apt-get install | 14:45 |
| Daverocks | Nomikos_: so you've got no special cable clients running on the ubuntu box, you just use plain dhcp? | 14:45 |
| mut80r | johnmike: after disabling DHCP you will no longer get any addresses from your network so you'd need to enter them manually into every machine on your network | 14:45 |
| psych | it asks for restart that Paavi2_0 | 14:45 |
| Nomikos_ | Daverocks: yes. | 14:45 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | mut80r: wud u recommend using a filesystem other than EXT3? wud that hav repercussions on my beautifully running hardy? | 14:45 |
| psych | it says 1 not fully installed or removed. | 14:45 |
| jim_beam | cut copy paste are single keys on keyboard -- real convenient. maybe edit xorg.conf | 14:46 |

But there is no this project type. Why is that, am i missing something? | 14:46 |
| psych | any thoughts? | 14:46 |

| === LainIwak1ra is now known as LainIwakura | ||

| mut80r | tj__: have you restarted after enabling the drivers? | 14:47 |
| tj__ | yes | 14:47 |
| johnmike | mut80r: Ok! How do I make sure than my Ubuntu box is listening on the ports I need it to? | 14:47 |
| mut80r | johnmike: that all depends on the program you're running that needs the ports forwarded. | 14:47 |
| tyler | tj_: try manually editing xorg.conf | 14:47 |
| tj__ | path? | 14:47 |
| mut80r | tj__: /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 14:48 |
| === Blue-Omega_ is now known as Blue-Omega | ||
| johnmike | mut80r: Yeah. I'm just trying to set it up mainly for transmission, but someone had told me that I had to be careful when selecting a port for use because specific ports are reserved for specific things. | 14:48 |
| mut80r | johnmike: select any port you want above 30000 as a safe rule. they can go up to 65535. | 14:49 |

| larry_ | ok finally found the gpg and installed it and got play on linux installed | 14:52 |
| mut80r | linkmaster03: still under heavy load I believe. | 14:52 |
| linkmaster03 | Ok thanks | 14:53 |
| larry_ | thanks graingert | 14:53 |
| mut80r | linkmaster03: if you're downloading and installing fresh, use the torrents. otherwise (if upgrading), wait a few weeks. | 14:53 |
| linkmaster03 | Heh ok | 14:53 |
| otarid | Wireless does work if I pick the older kernel version (-14?) from the boot screen, but that gives me issues with nvidia graphic card | 14:53 |

| ifireball | dmsuperman_: you place it in one of the /etc/cron.* directories | 15:19 |
| vistakiller | try to terminal envyng -t | 15:19 |
| mut80r|brb | jarle: no. use 64-bit | 15:19 |
| Zacaa | Hi | 15:19 |
| regis | _paradox_, which ubuntu version do you have. | 15:19 |
| nibsa1242b | MttJocy: hmm... no setup window and everything is still unselectable | 15:19 |
| Crusader_Tech | mut80r|brb: Thanks for trying. | 15:19 |
| regis | _paradox_, which ubuntu version do you have? | 15:19 |
| vistakiller | with sudo | 15:19 |
| demonicanima | I'm having trouble upgrading to 8.04 from 7.10 it fails at "Preparing to upgrade/Checking package manager". Happens with both network and alternate cd upgrade methods. Any clue on how to get Gutsy to upgrade short of a clean install? | 15:19 |
| Zacaa | could someone please help me with my nvidia graphics driver installproblem? | 15:19 |
| giorgio | Hi all. | 15:19 |
| _paradox_ | 7.10 gutsy | 15:20 |
| mut80r|brb | on a side-note I just realised my name. | 15:20 |
| === mut80r|brb is now known as mut80r | ||
| dmsuperman_ | ifireball: What about if I want to manually add it to my /etc/crontab file? | 15:20 |
| graingert | !tell SadDreamer about metaquestion | 15:20 |
| MttJocy | nibsa1242b, This is odd :S | 15:20 |
| regis | Zacaa, what's the problem? i had one and i resolved it | 15:20 |
| nibsa1242b | MttJocy: tell me about it... | 15:20 |
| DarphBobo | when i run rhythmbox some times gives a msg saying "invalid argument" and i can't play any audio in rhythmbox now.. also cpu usage shows 100% | 15:20 |
| Crusader_Tech | mut80r: know any regulars in here who might be wi-fi gurus? It seems to be the only thing keeping me from going Ubuntu on this laptop. | 15:20 |
| === soulrider_ is now known as soulrider | ||
| Zacaa | regis: I've tried everything to install it but yet it just won't be configured, and it just work initialize | 15:20 |
| graingert | !question > SadDreamer | 15:20 |
| mut80r | Crusader_Tech: no. but you could try the wifidocs | 15:20 |
| MttJocy | nibsa1242b, Well, might want to (with evolution closed again) move your settings directory back as we know it doesn't seam to be that. | 15:20 |
| KalEl | hi i got firefox 3 when i updated to hardy - but windows still has firefox 2, would you happen to know any reason for that | 15:20 |
| regis | Crusader_Tech, do you have a broadcom card? | 15:20 |
| Zacaa | What was your problem? I've been trying all day long to get this working | 15:20 |
| ifireball | dmsuperman_: you can do that, but its a less modular approach, the default /etc/crontab file may also be overwritten by a future upgrade | 15:21 |
| mut80r | KalEl: windows and ubuntu are seperate. | 15:21 |
| _paradox_ | it will be in update manager? | 15:21 |
| gapagos | hey when im trying to set a new default opening program in Firefox, is there a way I can use the program launch command (like in a Terminal) because I can't find the actual program on my filesystem but I know it's there somewhere... (It's Rhythmbox Music Player, command rhythmbox) | 15:21 |
| graingert | KalEl: windows <> ubuntu | 15:21 |
| minus198 | mut80r: Hm.. the light doesnt even switch when Im using livecd | 15:21 |
| quio | I have my wireless working in roaming mode but when I try and set it up for manual mode to give myself a static IP address it will not connect or I do not know how to make it connect. Does anyone know how I can do this please. I am trying to set a static address so I cN PUT MY MACHINE ON THE dmz. | 15:21 |
| Crusader_Tech | regis: it's the wi-fi card in a dell laptop, 3 years old, the one that's NOT an intel card. The windows driver refers to it as a "Dell" wi-fi card. | 15:21 |
| dmsuperman_ | ifireball: Is there a certain way to set it so it runs at a certain time of the day then? | 15:21 |
| mut80r | minus198: I suspect your card. try re-seating it. | 15:21 |
| KalEl | ok | 15:21 |
| regis | Zacaa, i had also an initialization problem...i had to:blacklist the wrong modules and autoload the good one | 15:21 |
| Zacaa | I've tried envyng, synaptic, and I've tried downloading the run file from the nvidia website, tried them all but yet, still not working | 15:21 |
| MttJocy | nibsa1242b, But to be honest with you I am kind of at a loss, after you upgraded to hardy it worked, did you install any other updates or new software after you installed hardy (and before evolution broke) | 15:22 |
| minus198 | mut80r: how? its a laptop o. | 15:22 |
| regis | Crusader_Tech, lspci? (pastebin) | 15:22 |
| giorgio | I've try to compile kvirc on kubunut remix and configure give me http://rafb.net/p/MbY90146.html. | 15:22 |
| graingert | dmsuperman_: anachronistc | 15:22 |
| vistakiller | Zacaa what card you have? | 15:22 |
| Areli1 | Does the "RadeonHD 3870" video card work with Ubuntu? | 15:22 |
| Zacaa | Nvidia 6200 | 15:22 |
| nibsa1242b | MttJocy: well I'm looking at System Monitor, killall didn't seem to kill all evolution processes... evolution-alarm-notify, evolution-data-server-2.22, and evolution-exchange-storage are still running | 15:22 |
| nibsa1242b | MttJocy: I'm going to kill them now | 15:22 |
| minus198 | mut80r: and it worked in windows | 15:22 |
| regis | _paradox_, if you have feisty you could help me...which wine version does feisty have? | 15:22 |
| giorgio | How do know the error? | 15:22 |
| Crusader_Tech | regis: it's showing as broadcom, yes. | 15:22 |
| mut80r | minus198: you should be able to remove a panel from the bottom. disconnect the antennas from the miniPCI card, take it out, plug it back in and reconnect. be careful with the antenna sockets, they're fragile. (pigtails) | 15:22 |
| Zacaa | How did you blacklist the wrong modules regis? | 15:22 |
| vistakiller | have you try to install the 96.43 driver? | 15:22 |
| MttJocy | nibsa1242b, Okay, try killing all the evolution processes then | 15:23 |
| === mizai_ is now known as mizai | ||
| _paradox_ | i dont have feisty | 15:23 |
| regis | Zacaa, what card do you have? | 15:23 |
| _paradox_ | i have gutsy | 15:23 |
| ifireball | dmsuperman_: you can use the /etc/cron.d directory but its a little more complicated then simply dropping the script in /etc/cron.weekly since you actually have to write a cron entry | 15:23 |
| minus198 | mut80r: Ok.. Ill give it a shot. | 15:23 |
| Zacaa | Nvidia 6200 | 15:23 |
| regis | _paradox_, oops i mean gutsy...the one before hardy | 15:23 |
| Zacaa | apparently I should use the nvidia-new drivers which is what I've been installing | 15:23 |
| dmsuperman_ | ifireball: I'm not afraid of writing cron entries ;) | 15:23 |
| mut80r | minus198: if that doesn't work, I suggest you call for help from the manufacturer, but as it is 3 years old this may be a problem | 15:23 |
| pwm | ifireball, I'm trying to get a remote login to gdm | 15:23 |
| MttJocy | nibsa1242b, Then see if after doing that evolution will load (with your profile directory moved back to it's normal name that is) | 15:23 |
| Crusader_Tech | regis: am I safe to assume it's not a driver issue at this point? | 15:23 |
| _paradox_ | and im waiting for the new ubuntu thru update manager | 15:23 |
| quio | I have my wireless working in roaming mode but when I try and set it up for manual mode to give myself a static IP address it will not connect or I do not know how to make it connect. Does anyone know how I can do this please. I am trying to set a static address so I can put my machine on dmz. | 15:24 |
| nibsa1242b | MttJocy: ok, I think that fixed it... I can click on things now. | 15:24 |
| _paradox_ | i dont know anything about wine | 15:24 |
| ifireball | dmsuperman_: by all means then, place a file containing the desired entry in /etc/cron.d | 15:24 |
| sobczyk | hi, is there a way to install localisation for firefox 3? | 15:24 |
| mut80r | _paradox_: it's available. just slow at the moment. | 15:24 |
| ifireball | pwm: with XDMCP? | 15:24 |
| regis | Zacaa, do you know where i could paste the procedure in order to benefit to more people? | 15:24 |
| dmsuperman_ | ifireball: Alright, thanks :D | 15:24 |
| regis | Crusader_Tech, lspci... | 15:24 |
| _paradox_ | so i should be notified soon? | 15:24 |
| pwm | ifireball: yes | 15:24 |
| Zacaa | How about the forums? | 15:24 |
| kevin4381 | is compiz-fusion installed by default? if nto, what is its name in package manager? | 15:24 |
| Zacaa | ubuntu forums? | 15:24 |
| regis | Crusader_Tech, oops | 15:24 |
| graingert | regis: pastebox | 15:24 |
| MttJocy | nibsa1242b, Cool, sounds probable then that one of it's supporting services froze up which stopped the main process working properly then | 15:24 |
| kevin4381 | in 8.04 | 15:24 |
| ifireball | pwm: what seems to be the problem? | 15:24 |
| bazhang | !paste | regis | 15:24 |
| ubotu | regis: 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) | 15:24 |
| graingert | !pastebin | 15:25 |
| nibsa1242b | MttJocy: what is strange is that even with my profile directory still named as the backup, my e-mail address and such is already there... ok well time to move my old profile dir back | 15:25 |
| pwm | ifireball is there a way to go somewhere with less traffic? | 15:25 |
| giorgio | I've try to compile kvirc on kubunut remix and configure give me http://rafb.net/p/MbY90146.html. | 15:25 |

| nibsa1242b | MttJocy: yep, sounds like it. Thanks for your help. | 15:25 |
| Crusader_Tech | regis: i'm typing to you now on a different machine. But I did the lspci, and the last line referrs to a broadcom a/b/g card. | 15:25 |
| rohan | is the openjdk java 6 distributed in ubuntu almost the same as sun's distribution? do i still need to have both installed? can i have both installed? | 15:25 |
| Beererde | how can i see at which poiunt the nvidia driver fails? i tried both glx and glx-new | 15:25 |
| bazhang | giorgio: best ask in #kubuntu-kde4 | 15:25 |
| regis | Crusader_Tech, it's not a driver issue but a firmware issue...look inside restricted hardware | 15:25 |
| akonkwa | ersion of ubuntu I'm using ? | 15:25 |
| regis | Crusader_Tech, be shure to enable all repos before | 15:25 |
| MttJocy | nibsa1242b, Might be interesting to check if this behaviour is repeatable, try doing the same thing you did just when it crashed the first time, see if it something random or a specific bug. | 15:25 |
| mut80r | regis: hardware drivers on hardy | 15:25 |
| bazhang | akonkwa: lsb_release -a in the terminal | 15:26 |
| dan | I cant get my 8.04 alternate cd to burn | 15:26 |
| graingert | akonda: check in about gnome, System:about gnome | 15:26 |
| akonkwa | bazhang, thanx | 15:26 |
| ttt-- | hi, how come the tracker doesnt find any files? i put all the checkboxes to enable | 15:26 |
| giorgio | Thk bazhang! | 15:26 |
| Crusader_Tech | regis: so I'm going to have to hard wire to ethernet, and hopefully I'll get a driver after enabling all repositories? | 15:26 |
| MttJocy | nibsa1242b, Because if it is repeatable might be a good idea to submit a bug report to the evolution team. | 15:26 |
| umbrualbert | Hi..Is this the Hardy Chatroom | 15:26 |
| bazhang | dan what errors are you getting | 15:26 |
| nibsa1242b | MttJocy: ok, I'll try... seriously though all I was doing was booting up the computer and starting up evolution | 15:26 |
| mut80r | Crusader_Tech: you have the driver. it needs to DL the firmware. | 15:26 |
| bazhang | umbrualbert: aye | 15:26 |
| akonkwa | Is it possible to upgrade from dapper to the current release ? | 15:26 |
| _paradox_ | i hope ill be notified thru update manager at least in the next day or two | 15:27 |
| graingert | v3Rn: try envy | 15:27 |
| kevin4381 | where is compiz-fusion? | 15:27 |
| ompaul | umbrualbert, it is the tech support channel not a chat room persay | 15:27 |
| bazhang | akonkwa: yes there is a one-step upgrade from dapper to hardy | 15:27 |
| MttJocy | nibsa1242b, Oh, it wasn't running the first time it crashed then? | 15:27 |
| umbrualbert | bazhang: Hardy Rocks | 15:27 |
| ifireball | pwm: are you registered with nickserv? | 15:27 |
| graingert | kevin4381: apearance desktop effects | 15:27 |
| bazhang | kevin4381: the channel or the manager | 15:27 |
| Crusader_Tech | regis: ok. So I'll hook up to ethernet, enable all repositories, and check for restricted drivers. right? | 15:27 |
| MttJocy | nibsa1242b, I mean not fully running (ie in use) | 15:27 |
| Zacaa | regis are you going to make a post on the forums or where do you think would be good? | 15:27 |
| mut80r | _paradox_ update manager won't tell you. (atleast I don't think it will, someone correct me if I'm wrong)... sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 15:27 |
| dan | when i try to burn the disk image, nautilus gives an error saying it's not a valid image | 15:27 |
| umbrualbert | ompaul: Thanks | 15:27 |
| ompaul | !upgrade | akonkwa - yes but warning - if you have used none ubuntu repositories then all bets are off | 15:27 |
| pwm | ifireball, don't think you can read my messages | 15:27 |
| ubotu | akonkwa - yes but warning - if you have used none ubuntu repositories then all bets are off: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | 15:27 |

| Apprentice_on_Li | Hi Guys... I'm need help to install DBDesign4 in my Ubuntu 7 | 15:27 |
| Crusader_Tech | regis: Sorry for all the questions, but i'm new to linux and really trying to give it a real shot. | 15:28 |
| graingert | dan: try braseo | 15:28 |
| bazhang | dan have you checked the iso against its md5sum? | 15:28 |
| kevin4381 | bazhang: - I'm not sure if its even installed (fresh 8.04 install) - and what I really want is to configure the effects (right now I just have desktop effects enabled) | 15:28 |
| ifireball | pwm: yeah, I need to allow you somehow, can't quite remember how to do that, w8 | 15:28 |
| nibsa1242b | MttJocy: I had just clicked on it to start it, and the whole evo windo was pretty much blank... so I waited to see if it was going to do it and then I killed the process about about 5 min | 15:28 |
| ifireball | !pm | me | 15:28 |
| ubotu | me: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit AND help you. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first, some find it rude. | 15:28 |

| _paradox_ | strange said in the ubuntu book it would | 15:28 |
| dan | graingert: i will try that, thanks | 15:28 |
| dmsuperman_ | In bash scripting is there a way to specify a block of code that will get executed when I quit the script prematurely? Like when using Ctrl + C? | 15:28 |
| bazhang | kevin4381: then you need to install compizconfig-settings-manager | 15:28 |
| mikebot | Is there a free way to print pdfs besides evince? | 15:28 |
| kevin4381 | thanks bazhang - I will do that | 15:29 |
| mut80r | dmsuperman_: no | 15:29 |

| un2him | i am using the nvidia driver. Is there any advantage to installing the nvidia-glx package? I am looking to boost performance of compiz | 15:29 |
| mikebot | dmsuperman_: Is that a program or a command? | 15:29 |
| kevin4381 | nice, thanks bazhang - :) | 15:29 |
| dmsuperman_ | mikebot: a program | 15:29 |
| purestrain | i've freshly installed 8.04, but something goes wrong with monodevelop... it complains about the mono compiler not installed | 15:29 |
| PriceChild | un2him: you're probably already using it, or nvidia-glx-new | 15:29 |
| graingert | mikebot: programs are comands | 15:29 |
| mut80r | un2him: better try nvidia-glx-new instead. | 15:30 |
| gapagos | hey is there a room for compiz-related issued | 15:30 |
| MttJocy | nibsa1242b, Well if it doesn't do it again with your profile directory back where it came from, and having closed the previous session in the same state you did before it failed to start again not sure what could have caused it. | 15:30 |

| dan | bresero burnt it and then a checked, corrupted files :( | 15:31 |
| minus198 | mut80r: Hm.. It didn't work. I'll try to install windows vista and see if it works.. | 15:31 |
| MttJocy | nibsa1242b, Yeah, well if it happens again you know how to fix it at least :) probably something silly like a small fluctuation in the mains voltage or something lol | 15:31 |
| gapagos | ompaul, the commnd /join compiz or /join !compiz or /join Compiz doesnt do anything | 15:31 |
| Apprentice_on_Li | but don't work my DBDesign4 | 15:31 |

| Dante123 | hi all, just installed ubuntu hardy. Under hardware drivers it lists nvidia-new has the enabled checked but then says not in use. How do I get it to use it? | 15:31 |
| gapagos | wow im such a n00b | 15:31 |
| gapagos | lol | 15:32 |
| minus198 | mut80r: if it doesn't work in vista, it's probably broken... | 15:32 |
| dirtyrice | it gets better from here | 15:32 |
| ompaul | !enter | 15:32 |
| ubotu | Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 15:32 |
| MttJocy | gapagos, It's /join #compiz | 15:32 |
| minus198 | mut80r: well.. Vista is the only think I have right now.. | 15:32 |
| dmsuperman_ | minus198: or it's just that it's vista | 15:32 |
| ifireball | pwm: sounds like a networking/bandwidth problem, may it be that the host you're connecting to cannot back-resolve the host you're connecting from? | 15:32 |
| _paradox_ | yeh there it is in ubuntu book when a new version bcomes available update manager will notify me | 15:32 |
| frold | Off topic - does anyone know a service that offers free webspace for eg image storage - Im not talking about a webhost.... More like a external storage drive.... | 15:32 |
| z0g | Dante123, I have an ATi card.. but what worked for me, installing the driver using Synaptics, then disabling and enabling the driver again | 15:32 |
| gapagos | lol works now thanks | 15:32 |
| pihus | Installed hardy today and found out that power manager icon in notification area often shows wrong information about my battery | 15:32 |
| minus198 | dmsuperman_: huh? | 15:32 |

| janjokela | Hi, after booting up, if I play music, audio in flash videos wont work anymore thereafter, and vice versa | 15:32 |
| Dante123 | z0g what exactly would I type from terminal ? | 15:32 |
| minus198 | dmsuperman_: well,, the wireless worked. | 15:32 |
| mut80r | minus198: I suggest you install it on a different drive if you feel compelled to. don't let it touch yours | 15:32 |
| Apprentice_on_Li | ? | 15:33 |
| * mut80r will never touch vista. ever. ever. | 15:33 | |
| minus198 | mut80r: I don't have another drive.. | 15:33 |
| ubuntu | how come fglrx is no longer in the restricted drivers box? | 15:33 |
| pwm | ifireball - howto find that out? I was working OK with gentoo before I installed ubuntu | 15:33 |
| bazhang | frold: you can use google mail for that--apt-cache search gmail for the program in the repos | 15:33 |
| dmsuperman_ | minus198: There have been times where I only install a simple nvidia video driver and then my vista becomes unbootable. Then reinstalling that exact same driver after reinstalling vista, and it works fine | 15:33 |
| z0g | Dante123, dunno | 15:33 |
| z0g | ubuntu, it is | 15:33 |
| albech | anyone have the 3945ABG intel wireless network working? | 15:33 |
| dmsuperman_ | mut80r: we had to install vista for testing at work. I burned the drive afterward =P | 15:33 |
| graingert | albech: yes it works out of box! | 15:33 |
| _paradox_ | so whats the hold up? | 15:33 |
| nibsa1242b | MttJocy: I think maybe it didn't crash gracefully and that was the issue. I'm connected to a UPS with voltage regulation, so my voltate doesn't fluctuate | 15:33 |
| z0g | vista-hate is overrated | 15:33 |
| albech | graingert: didnt work after i upgraded :( | 15:34 |
| MttJocy | gapagos, Hey, no problem lol, it's worth remembering though that most (nearly all) IRC channels have a # at the start of their name (there are some special types of channels that have some other character but generally it's # unless otherwise stated lol) | 15:34 |
| znh | Hello. I have no sound since I upgraded to Hard Henson. Any clues? | 15:34 |
| mut80r | dmsuperman_: more to that. one of my friends had vista and he shutdown and updates were doing... then he booted up the next day and chkdsk ran and got rid of ALL his files. the pointers in the filesystem. | 15:34 |
| ifireball | ifireball: I see, try running "host <ip.of.client.here>" on the server and make sure you get the right name back | 15:34 |
| bazhang | albech is this a fresh hardy install or an upgrade | 15:34 |
| un2him | PriceChild: sorry, i meant the xserver-xgl driver. Is that a replacement for the nvidia driver? | 15:34 |
| ifireball | pwm: I see, try running "host <ip.of.client.here>" on the server and make sure you get the right name back | 15:34 |
| albech | bazhang: upgrade | 15:34 |
| dmsuperman_ | z0g: Quite a bit of the hate for vista is based on nothing, but many of us who actually use it and know what we're talking about have valid arguments | 15:34 |
| MttJocy | nibsa1242b, Oh well, no point worrying over it anyway lol, weird things happen sometimes I guess lol | 15:34 |
| PriceChild | un2him: you don't want to use that, no :) | 15:34 |
| graingert | albech: poned, no but really did you try modprobing the iwl driver? | 15:34 |
| dmsuperman_ | mut80r: ouch | 15:34 |
| un2him | PriceChild: thanks. Any suggestions on improving compiz performance? | 15:34 |
| nibsa1242b | MttJocy: yep, and thankfully there are people like you around to help out :) | 15:35 |
| znh | Hello. I have no sound since I upgraded to Hardy Henson. Any clues? | 15:35 |
| Dante123 | hi all, just installed ubuntu hardy. Under hardware drivers it lists nvidia-new has the enabled checked but then says not in use. How do I get it to use it? z0g suggested installing via synaptic then disable and re-enable. Anyone know how this is done? What do I type at terminal or do I search synaptic for nvidia-new? | 15:35 |
| z0g | dmsuperman, exactly :> | 15:35 |
| mut80r | dmsuperman_: yeah I had to help him with a reinstall and everything. finding his audio driver was horrible. I migrated him to 7.10GG last week. he's left it in a dualboot but hasn't started vista at all yet. =] | 15:35 |
| albech | graingert: whats the name of the iwl module? | 15:35 |
| pwm | ifireball can we go to ubunto-iso only 4 users there | 15:35 |
| ifireball | pwm: also do a sanity check, make sure you see gdm listening on port 177 when you run "sudo netstat -lupn" | 15:35 |
| Dante123 | graingert, I added irqpoll at the end of the line that boots ubuntu...and it booted fine | 15:35 |
| Apprentice_on_Li | Please, i'm need help in my install DBDesing4.. I'm execute this command:> ./startdbd but don't work.. this page have man install http://www.fabforce.net/downloadfile.php?iddownloadfile=2 | 15:36 |
| krasher | i'm having problems with ubuntu hardy heron, a LG Studioworks 55i and a Nvidia Geforce FX-5200... when i install the nvidia-glx-new driver and do a reboot, my computer starts in failsafe mode... i can't switch to 1024x768 at 60hz, my optimal resolution that i use in windows and at ubuntu 7.10, in which i had several problems until putting it to work properly | 15:36 |
| graingert | Dante123: yay | 15:36 |
| bagelong | Is there anyone that can help me get my wireless drivers installed. Windows wireless driver utility continually calls them invalid | 15:36 |
| MttJocy | nibsa1242b, lol, heh you figured it out for yourself, I never even considered the fact there may be more than one process used by evolution lol (Although I have never used the program so have never seen it's processes on my machine of course). | 15:36 |
| un2him | Dante123: make sure you update your sources first, then go to hardware drivers again, this time you should be able to select it | 15:36 |
| dmsuperman_ | mut80r: awesome. I got so sick of windows about a month ago that i finally just sat down and came up with a list of apps that I absolutely need, and found alternatives. Then I installed Ubuntu, and the only time I boot XP now is for games and photoshop :D | 15:36 |
| graingert | Dante123: now add it to your menu.list in grub | 15:36 |
| Dante123 | so graingert, what else might be the problem? | 15:36 |
| mikebot | Oh, I have another question: My tracker hasn't been indexing--when I try to re-index, it disappears from the panel, and I have to re-open it with like `tracker-applet' (in which case there is then two in the panel), and it still hasn't indexed anything... ANyone know why this is happening? | 15:36 |
| graingert | Dante123: there is no problme | 15:36 |
| giggsey | Is there a way to get rid of that audiopulse crap? It crashes on login for me | 15:36 |
| mut80r | dmsuperman_: for photoshop and games, use ReactOS. I have a dualboot on here with that and this (hardy). | 15:36 |
| Dante123 | graingert so you mean add it at the end in the menu.lst too right? | 15:37 |
| pwm | ifireball: right host says ;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached | 15:37 |
| mstevens | hi, I upgraded to hardy heron and now I don't get a login box anymore | 15:37 |
| graingert | Dantel123: no not the end | 15:37 |
| pwm | netstat -lupn says udp6 0 0 :::177 :::* 5184/gdm | 15:37 |
| pwm | ifireball: could it be an ipv6 problem? | 15:37 |
| graingert | Dante123: debian has a special way of playing things with grub | 15:37 |
| MttJocy | bagelong, Possibly not the best channel to ask about windows issues to be fair although maybe some people here might have some pointers for you I guess. | 15:37 |
| Dante123 | okay, well I am still a skeptic because the original boot prob is sporadic anyway. Sometimes it boots fine on first try. But I will do as you say and see if the hangs are done. | 15:37 |
| dmsuperman_ | mut80r: I haven't ever heard of that, what is it? | 15:37 |
| nethakz | anyone know why the network manager doesn't do wpa? I do have wpa-supplicant installed. this is for hardy... | 15:37 |
| mut80r | dmsuperman_: an open source implementation of a windows NT 5.1 system. www.reactos.org | 15:37 |
| Stomp442 | anybody have issues with Hardy Heron with AWN and/or Emerald? | 15:38 |
| ifireball | pwm: you mean the "host" command gave you that? that means you have a DNS problem (not sure its related though) | 15:38 |
| Wile | Hello. Where can I had a NTFS partition which was not automatically discovered ? | 15:38 |
| Dante123 | un2him doing as you suggest | 15:38 |
| nethakz | it recognizes it's wpa and tries to connect when i type the password in but it fails and asks for the key again. | 15:38 |
| bagelong | MTJocy: not a windows issue - the Windows Wireless drivers utility in 8.04 (hardy) | 15:38 |
| _paradox_ | can anyone just give me a time estimate of about when update manager will notify me of hardy? | 15:38 |
| MttJocy | pwm, You are using IPv6 on your network then? | 15:38 |
| krasher | i'm having problems with ubuntu hardy heron, a LG Studioworks 55i and a Nvidia Geforce FX-5200... when i install the nvidia-glx-new driver and do a reboot, my computer starts in failsafe mode... i can't switch to 1024x768 at 60hz, my optimal resolution that i use in windows and at ubuntu 7.10, in which i had several problems until putting it to work properly | 15:38 |
| un2him | Dante123: let me know if it works | 15:38 |
| dmsuperman_ | mut80r: How is compatability? I mean I don't play very many games, but the ones I do play are pretty complex | 15:38 |
| Dante123 | thanks...worked! un2him :-D | 15:38 |
| Stomp442 | Paradox...hardy's out...should be in your update manager | 15:38 |
| PriceChild | I remember places saying that ubuntu included an easy gui firewall by default, where is it? | 15:38 |
| bazhang | albech some folks are experiencing difficulties when upgrading from gutsy to hardy with that card; I did as well--oddly enough a fresh install of hardy does not have that issue--the launchpad page may have some workaround by now if you wish to check | 15:38 |
| un2him | Dante123: very cool, i'm glad! | 15:39 |
| === zauzzome is now known as zaussome | ||
| mut80r | dmsuperman_: it has full binary compatibility with drivers and apps. directx and openGL work too on the games I use (unreal tournament, halo, etc) | 15:39 |
| Dante123 | thanks un2him. Have a good day | 15:39 |
| MttJocy | bagelong, Ah, sorry my apologies, I have only just upgraded to Hardy myself and hadn't noticed that particular utility. | 15:39 |
| nethakz | PriceChild, it not gui, it's command line only | 15:39 |
| pwm | MttJocy I have no idea? both client and server are running ubuntu desktop 7.something | 15:39 |
| mut80r | dmsuperman_: takes a few hundred megs of hdd space. boots up in ~ 30 seconds. | 15:39 |
| albech | bazhang: guess ill backup my stuff and do a fresh install.. thanks | 15:39 |
| PriceChild | nethakz: what is it? | 15:39 |
| graingert | Dante123: check the private message | 15:39 |
| bazhang | PriceChild: something other than firestarter? | 15:39 |
| PriceChild | bazhang: yes | 15:39 |
| dmsuperman_ | mut80r: awesome, I'll check that out :D | 15:39 |
| pwm | MttJocy ifconfig says somehting about ipv6 | 15:40 |
| mut80r | dmsuperman_: you can DL it as an ISO or a virtual machine (VMware, VirtualPC) I believe. | 15:40 |
| MttJocy | pwm, But in netstat it is not bound to any IPv4 addresses? | 15:40 |
| bazhang | albech best to try the livecd and verify what I said--it worked for me, but worksforme may not for you | 15:40 |
| weary | ubuntu boots up but i get 'ALERT /dev/sda1<garbled> does not exist. Dropping to a shell'. where does the garbage after the devicename come from? | 15:40 |
| un2him | Dante123: no prob...you too | 15:40 |
| pwm | I can ping both host and server from each other - X -query localhost :1 does not work either | 15:40 |
| dmsuperman_ | mut80r: yeah but VM's don't support 3d rendering fast enough for games so there'd be no point in a VM | 15:40 |
| mut80r | dmsuperman_: just to see what it's like :P | 15:40 |
| pwm | MttJocy correct netstat doesn't have any ipv4 port 177 application listed | 15:40 |
| nethakz | PriceChild, ufw | 15:40 |
| dmsuperman_ | mut80r: Yeah I'll check that out when I get home :D | 15:41 |
| mut80r | dmsuperman_: :) | 15:41 |
| gmenelau | bazhang hi | 15:41 |
| PriceChild | nethakz: bingo, thanks | 15:41 |
| bazhang | http://www.ubuntugeek.com/ufw-uncomplicated-firewall-for-ubuntu-hardy.html this is it? | 15:41 |
| bazhang | err PriceChild | 15:41 |
| bazhang | oops never mind | 15:41 |
| PriceChild | bazhang: yeah, tisn't gui, but is what I was after :) | 15:41 |
| gmenelau | bazhang we talked yesterday before i make upgrade the new ubuntu | 15:41 |
| robert__ | does anyone know how to customize the ubuntu login screen? | 15:42 |
| bazhang | gmenelau: ah yes; have you decided yet? | 15:42 |
| giorgio | Penso sia questo il prblema: http://rafb.net/p/okEnt325.html. | 15:42 |
| ifireball | pwm: if you see it listen as :::177 its ok | 15:42 |
| mut80r | robert__: System -> Administration -> Login Window -> Local tab | 15:42 |
| giorgio | Idee? | 15:42 |
| bagelong | I have installed the 64 bit version on my Core 2 duo machine. I am going to reinstall to try to work out bugs. Should I go to the 32 bit/ | 15:42 |
| gmenelau | bazhang yes i did it , i install it | 15:42 |
| mut80r | bagelong: n | 15:42 |
| mut80r | bagelong: no * | 15:42 |
| bazhang | bagelong: up to you; less hassle imo | 15:42 |
| tseug | hello, i cannot get my Home folder to open. when i click the Home icon, all my desktop items disappear and nothing else happens. this began after upgrading to Hardy. any ideas how to fix this? | 15:42 |
| zachary | (EE) Failed to initialize GLX extention (compatible NVIDIA X driver not found) | 15:42 |
| bazhang | gmenelau: you have any issues with it? | 15:42 |
| _paradox_ | is it slow getting to update manager? thats ive chosen to upgrade | 15:42 |
| zachary | anyone else got that error? | 15:42 |
| _paradox_ | how | 15:43 |
| gmenelau | bazhang few of my programas like skype in not working | 15:43 |
| mut80r | _paradox_: yes, at the moment. | 15:43 |
| bagelong | bazhang: Will I be able to download it now? | 15:43 |
| gmenelau | bazhang more correct i dont see it no where in my program list | 15:43 |
| bazhang | bagelong: sure but best to use the torrents; you can /msg ubotu torrents for the direct torrent link | 15:43 |
| _paradox_ | ok so will it be like a day or two or more before update manager notifies me? | 15:44 |
| ole | Hey. I just installed 8.04 and it looks great. I would like to thank the everyone involved for a great distro. I'm planing to install Ubuntu on more computers with the same setup, and I was wondering if there is an easy way to ouput the chooses I did in the install and create a preseeding file? | 15:44 |
| bazhang | gmenelau: have you tried skype after typing alt f2? | 15:44 |
| minus198 | mut80r: so you have no idea what I should do next? | 15:44 |
| gmenelau | also i have few problem with wireless network | 15:44 |
| ompaul | !install | ole | 15:44 |
| ubotu | ole: Ubuntu can be installed in a lot of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall. Don't want to use a CD? Try http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate | 15:44 |
| bagelong | bazhang: my main problem is an inability to get wireless card driver installed. Is there any way it is the 64 bit install causing the problem? | 15:44 |
| ompaul | !wireless | gmenelau | 15:44 |
| ubotu | gmenelau: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 15:44 |
| mut80r | minus198: no, sorry. mine showed up in the hardware drivers manager and I went and grabbed an ethernet and it downloaded and installed fine. | 15:44 |
| gmenelau | bazhang i dont see a shortcut or something also to start for it | 15:44 |
| bluechaos1986 | anyone know why some text appears extremely large in my firefox? | 15:44 |
| regis | does someone has gutsy? | 15:44 |
| bazhang | bagelong: what card is it; what does lspci say about that card (just the one line please | 15:45 |
| Dante123 | graingert check private pm | 15:45 |
| crashanddie | Dante123, private private message ? | 15:45 |
| dmsuperman_ | I don't have direct access to my machine ATM, but I just ran a full backup of my whole installation. The partition is 4.5GB used, and the resulting gzip'ed tar is 1.7GB. Is GZip compression really that good? Or might I be missing something? | 15:45 |
| zachary | bluechaos1986: can't you just reduce the text size in the setting? | 15:45 |
| bazhang | bluechaos1986: you can adjust the fonts within firefox | 15:45 |
| mut80r | dmsuperman_: it really is that good. | 15:45 |
| bagelong | bazhang: 0c:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4310 USB Controller (rev 01) | 15:45 |
| bluechaos1986 | yeah, i did that. it's really wierd the links for youtube vids are like large and the rest are normal | 15:45 |
| dmsuperman_ | mut80r: awesome. And here I thought 7zip had strong compression. | 15:46 |
| ifireball | dmsuperman_: its ok, gzip is that good, and the system contain a LOT of compressable redundancy | 15:46 |
| Dante123 | crashanddie forgive the syntax | 15:46 |
| bagelong | bazhang: I tried two different drivers. The one recommended by ndiswrapper, and the one recommended by dell. Keeps saying invalid driver. | 15:46 |
| mut80r | dmsuperman_: what ifireball said | 15:46 |
| dmsuperman_ | hah | 15:46 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | how do i enable the desktop cube in AompizConfig Settings Manager? i've already ticked Desktop Cube, Rotate Cube and 3D Windows.. | 15:47 |
| josh04_ | bagelong: Morning! | 15:47 |
| mut80r | ubuntung-pinoy: type compiz at a terminal and see if it has any errors. | 15:47 |
| dmsuperman_ | ifireball: mut80r: Alright perhaps you know this. I wanted to use bzip2 compression to see if I could get it even smaller, however when I changed the command to use bzip2 the resulting file was 0 bytes. The only thing I changed was the tar options from "cvpzf" to "cvpjf" and the out file name from "backup.tgz" to "backup.tar.bz2" | 15:47 |
| bagelong | josh04: greetings. I am a little sleep deprived, but still determined. | 15:47 |
| robert__ | i haven't figured out how to make my own login screen picture show up | 15:48 |
| gmenelau | bazhang also most of the programs i have it twice in my applications list like kopete | 15:48 |
| bazhang | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=709259 bagelong you may wish to look at this thread | 15:48 |
| _paradox_ | alright well ty maybe ill get lucky and update manager will notify me by the end of the day about hardy | 15:48 |
| ofh | hi | 15:48 |
| ghostknife | My system is overloading available resources. It seems to be trackerd. How do I turn this off? I never use it | 15:48 |
| mut80r | dmsuperman_: I don't know anything about bz2. sorry | 15:48 |
| ghostknife | And how do I clean up the indexes. | 15:48 |
| bazhang | gmenelau: is this kde3 or kde4 | 15:48 |
| ifireball | dmsuperman_: seems right | 15:48 |
| ghostknife | dmsuperman_: what do you want to know about bz2? | 15:48 |
| dmsuperman_ | mut80r: no worries :S | 15:48 |
| tseug | hello i cannot access my Home folder. neither through the icon nor through a shell. however, i can access the folders WITHIN home folder... how can i fix this? | 15:48 |
| bagelong | bazhang: thanks. I'll check it out. | 15:48 |
| josh04_ | bagelong: Same ;) Also, I found some help on how to fix it | 15:48 |
| ofh | someone that can help on firefox prob ?? | 15:48 |
| dmsuperman_ | ghostknife: See my above question. basically my bz2 compression results in 0 byte files | 15:48 |
| josh04_ | bagelong: Have you changed anything since last night? | 15:49 |
| mut80r | tseug: chown username /home/username/ -R | 15:49 |
| RoRza | anyone knows where I can install the Subverion or SVN ubuntu from | 15:49 |
| bagelong | josh04: just tried another driver through windows wireless driver utility to no avail | 15:49 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | mut80r: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64524/ | 15:49 |
| ghostknife | dmsuperman_: try doing: tar -cpvf (leave the j). and use the extension ".tar". thereafter try do do: bzip2 <file> | 15:49 |
| robert__ | does anyone know how to use a regular picture for the login screen background? | 15:49 |
| gmenelau | bazhang what is kde3 or kde 4 ? | 15:49 |
| josh04_ | bagelong: Apparently we need to add something to /etc/rc.local | 15:49 |
| dmsuperman_ | ifireball: That's what I thought, but it always outputs bz2 files. Even a simple command, compressing a single file like that makes it 0 bytes | 15:49 |
| dmsuperman_ | ghostknife: alright lemme try that real quick | 15:49 |
| ghostknife | robert__: kde/gnome? | 15:49 |
| bazhang | gmenelau: you are using kopete with gnome? or with kde? (ubuntu or kubuntu) | 15:50 |
| bagelong | josh04: Is that the full line? | 15:50 |
| robert__ | gnome | 15:50 |
| RoRza | anyone knows where I can install the Subverion or SVN ubuntu from | 15:50 |
| ifireball | dmsuperman_: may it be directory-location related? e.g you're running the command from the wrong place? | 15:50 |
| josh04_ | bagelong: Did the new driver say "device present" without needing ndiswrapper -a devid device? | 15:50 |
| ghostknife | anyone know of some fast search tool in ubuntu (that uses tracker-search-tool)? | 15:50 |
| ghostknife | ifireball: it worked with gzip | 15:50 |
| Crusader_Tech | regis: I am now talking to you from my laptop via wireless. Thank you VERY much! | 15:50 |
| Nalleman | hi, how do I install openGL support? | 15:50 |
| ice-man | hi is there a way to disable aptitude's systray icon when i use apt ?? | 15:50 |
| tseug | mut80r, it says no such file or directory?! | 15:50 |
| gmenelau | bazhang i use gnome ubuntu | 15:50 |
| mut80r | ubuntung-pinoy: I can't see anything majorly wrong there that would stop it working. try joining #compiz-fusion | 15:50 |
| bagelong | josh04: just says invalid driver. Now the other one - the one we installed last night, says it too. | 15:50 |
| mut80r | tseug: try adding sudo infront of it. | 15:51 |
| vicky123_ | hi everybody, i hav pentiun dual core processor. so which ubuntu i should download. (PC (Intel x86) desktop CD or 64-bit PC (AMD64) desktop CD)? | 15:51 |
| eternal_p | ice-man: it isn't aptitude per-say it is Update Manager, and I don't think yo ucan do it | 15:51 |
| ubuntung-pinoy | mut80r: a'right.. thanks... | 15:51 |
| Wile | How are the NTFS disks of the machines detected ? I have one partition missing in /media... | 15:51 |
| josh04_ | bagelong: How odd. Can you remove them both with ndiswrapper -r? | 15:51 |
| dmsuperman_ | ghostknife: That works. I am running this to backup 5GB worth of data though, so would it be a whole lot slower to archive and then compress as you suggested? | 15:51 |
| eternal_p | vicky123_: you will be better served, if you are new to ubuntu to use the x86 rather than 64-bit | 15:51 |
| tseug | mut80r, same thing 'No such file or directory' | 15:51 |
| bazhang | vicky123_: depends on you; both will support dual core | 15:51 |
| Crusader_Tech | mut80r: regis was able to get me going. Thank you for taking the time to try to help me. | 15:51 |
| bagelong | josh04: I tried ndiswrapper -r and it will not work. Had to remove them from the utility. | 15:51 |
| ghostknife | dmsuperman_: well, it would have to do it in 2 steps instead of one | 15:51 |
| mut80r | tseug: looks like a bad filesystem to me. | 15:51 |
| mut80r | Crusader_Tech: no problem | 15:51 |
| ghostknife | dmsuperman_: can we do this in private, this channel is too busy? i'll help you fix it | 15:52 |
| robert__ | is gnome hard to customize the login? | 15:52 |
| vicky123_ | thanx to both | 15:52 |
| un2him | can someone tell me how to automatically do the /msg nickserv identify command upon startup? I hate having to type it in every time. using xchat-gnome. | 15:52 |
| Dante123 | earth to graingert | 15:52 |
| ghostknife | robert__: not really a factor. I just need to know what to tell you | 15:52 |
| mut80r | robert__: System -> Administration -> Login Window -> Local tab | 15:52 |
| jelle | hey | 15:52 |
| tseug | mut80r, i have some important files in there, anyway i can copy/paste those files to another place like desktop? | 15:52 |
| dmsuperman_ | ghostknife: sure, but I'm not quite sure how to open a private message window in irssi =P | 15:52 |
| josh04_ | bagelong: that's fine. Just give me a moment, I'm trying to find a driver for your device id | 15:52 |

| M2 | Hey guys, do any of you know how I would go about installing something known as pixbuf engine for GTK2? : ( | 15:52 |
| jelle | someone how knows a good site to prepare for the ubuntu certification, please? | 15:52 |
| awaw | thank you for the help guys, computers_with_linux_installed++; | 15:52 |
| bagelong | josh04: let it go for now. Got a 4 y.o. soccer game. hope I find you later. | 15:52 |
| minus198 | mut80r: apparently my card needs a patch. It isn't supported in the 2.6.24 kernel. | 15:52 |
| aroo | un2him, there should be a field to input "Nickserv password" when you are configuring server settings | 15:52 |
| tseug | mut80r, what does cp stand for? | 15:53 |
| eternal_p | Dincahill: do you have your IDE drives turned on in your bios? | 15:53 |
| mut80r | minus198: I thought you had a BCM4311? | 15:53 |
| josh04_ | bagelong: I'll leave this on, try and spot you when you get back :P | 15:53 |

| simonft2 | any one know why im getting "sudo: unable to resolve host simon-laptop" | 15:53 |
| DinCahill | eternal_p: they work fine in windows and they work in gutsy | 15:53 |
| === kisa is now known as tockitj | ||
| aroo | un2him, on my XChat, I click "XChat" menu -> Network list -> Pick irc server -> type in for field "Nickserv password" | 15:53 |
| eternal_p | Dincahill: did you upgrade or clean install? | 15:53 |
| DinCahill | this is a livecd | 15:53 |
| DinCahill | i dont have gutsy installed at the minute | 15:53 |
| ifireball | M2: install the gtk2-engines-pixbuf package with Synaptic (should be installed by default AFAIK) | 15:53 |
| DinCahill | i wiped and im starting again | 15:54 |
| ghostknife | dmsuperman_: check you have a new window. just press alt+[nr] to goto it | 15:54 |
| eternal_p | Dincahill: ahh..I remember something about the way that gutsy handles hard drives, but I have not heard in a long time about any issues with it reading IDE drives to be honest with you | 15:54 |
| tockitj | how to display computer stats on desktop (something like kde superkaramba -- i'd like to see cpu, mem and network usage) :-) | 15:54 |
| M2 | Ok, thanks : D | 15:54 |
| Alan | Have there been any core updates to hardy since the release? | 15:54 |
| mut80r | Alan: not that I know of. | 15:54 |
| Alan | For some reason, I've had no updates since the 23rd | 15:54 |
| eternal_p | tockitj: screenlets 0.1 is the best out there | 15:54 |
| eternal_p | tockitj: it isn't in the repos yet, just download the .deb | 15:54 |
| un2him | aroo: thanks, i found the correct field, i will restart and see what happens! | 15:54 |
| mut80r | Alan: because the 23rd images were used for the release. | 15:54 |
| Alan | Ah, fair enough... was just worrying that maybe there should have been | 15:54 |
| tockitj | thanks | 15:54 |
| DinCahill | ok thanks anyway eternal_p | 15:54 |
| RoRza | can someon pls answe my question ? | 15:55 |
| RoRza | anyone knows where I can install the Subverion or SVN ubuntu from | 15:55 |
| eternal_p | Dincahill: no problem, sorry I coudln't help | 15:55 |
| eternal_p | RoRza: sudo apt-get install svn | 15:55 |
| Alan | mut80r, i didn't install from the 23rd images, i installed from the 18th (when release candidate was first available) | 15:55 |
| ghostknife | dmsuperman_: you there? | 15:55 |
| ole | On a fresh install of Ubuntu 8.04 I get the following error message: debconf-get-selections --installer --> debconf: DbDriver "di_questions": could not open /var/log/installer/cdebconf/questions.dat Anyone know how to fix this problem. (I'm trying to use the chooses I did in the installation possess to automate Ubuntu installations) | 15:55 |
| === eltech- is now known as eltech | ||
| dmsuperman_ | ghostknife: you aren't getting my messages? | 15:55 |
| ifireball | RoRza: subversion is in the repositories | 15:55 |
| mut80r | Alan: hmm. there may have been a few updates since then but there may not have been. check your software sources either way | 15:56 |
| simonft2 | any one know why im getting "sudo: unable to resolve host simon-laptop" from "sudo apt-get install python"? | 15:56 |
| minus198 | mut80r: I think I'll download 7.10. It's supposed to work nativly since 7.10 isn't using the same kernel | 15:56 |
| DinCahill | is there a way i can get ubuntu to list the drives it recognises? | 15:56 |
| mut80r | minus198: it worked out of the box for me on 7.10 | 15:56 |
| un2him | aroo: thanks, that did the trick! | 15:56 |
| __max_ | im getting: Dhcdbd: message_handler: message handler not found under /com/redhat/dhcp/eth0 that suddenly crashes my entire friggin swithc. | 15:56 |
| eternal_p | simonft2: I've seen a few people complaining about this....try a sudo hostname yourlaptop's name | 15:56 |
| RoRza | ifireball, : but I cant find it using the add/remove search ? | 15:56 |
| aroo | un2him, no problem | 15:56 |
| __max_ | i can see many poeple using ubuntu having this problem, but noone has a sollution? | 15:56 |
| eternal_p | RoRza: sudo apt-get install svn :) | 15:56 |
| DinCahill | fdisk -l is supposed to list partitions but it outputs nothing | 15:56 |
| dmsuperman_ | ghostknife: ah, hold on. private messages are blocked from unregged users, lemme identify | 15:56 |
| Alan | mut80r, tried both "main server" and "united kindom", no updates apparently... | 15:56 |
| ghostknife | dmsuperman_: are you identified/registered? | 15:56 |
| minus198 | mut80r: btw.. Do you have "rev1" or "rev2" ? | 15:56 |
| simonft2 | eternal_p: host name? | 15:56 |
| NinthWave | 8.04 I can't set the screen resolution as I could with 7.10. Any help? | 15:56 |
| robert__ | ghostknife i see the options, but i can't figure out how to use one of my pictures for the login screen | 15:57 |
| mut80r | minus198: rev 01 | 15:57 |
| eternal_p | simonft2: it is a command "hostname" which will set the name of your computer | 15:57 |
| ifireball | RoRza: try Synaptic, the Add/Remove contains only large GUI software AFAIK svn is a small command line tool | 15:57 |
| minus198 | mut80r: cause rev1 works nativly in 8.04. But rev2 doesn't work. | 15:57 |
| nox-Hand | Greetings | 15:57 |
| RoRza | eternal_p, : its SVN and Subversion the same thing ? | 15:57 |
| mut80r | Alan: sudo apt-get update | 15:57 |
| minus198 | mut80r: there is our answer. | 15:57 |
| eternal_p | RoRza: you got it | 15:57 |
| mut80r | minus198: ah my bad. sorry. | 15:57 |
| eternal_p | simonft2: do this | 15:57 |
| simonft2 | eternal_p: | 15:57 |
| NinthWave | 8.04 I can't set the screen resolution as I could with 7.10. Any help? | 15:57 |
| eternal_p | simonft2: go to a terminal, and type hostname and press enter, it will give you the name of your laptop | 15:57 |

| El1 | Hi guys, has anyone found a solution yet to the nvidia drivers problem in hardy? | 15:57 |
| simonft2 | ok | 15:57 |

| _paradox_ | yesterday i had to reset my cable modem and router for a minute. is possible i missed the update manager's notification about hardy? | 15:59 |
| El1 | NinthWave: I think so, my problem is that when I install the drivers after X restart it turns to low-res mode, but I think it has the same cause, since we both have no gfx acceleration I assume | 15:59 |
| eternal_p | _paradox_: umm no | 15:59 |
| mut80r | anyoen know how I can disable join/part notices in Pidgin ? | 16:00 |

| DinCahill | neocortex: you mean you can boot in to windows but you cannot see the partition in ubuntu? | 16:01 |
| _paradox_ | what about sudo? would it be as easy to install that way? | 16:01 |
| josh04_ | tseug: you need to use -r | 16:01 |
| El1 | NinthWave: where? I'm kinda blind atm since I'm at 800x600 now | 16:01 |
| simonft2 | won't let me save it | 16:01 |
| tseug | josh04_, how do i use -r? | 16:01 |
| eternal_p | simonft2: did you do a sudo first? | 16:02 |
| Neocortex | DinCahill: Yes, exactly | 16:02 |
| mut80r | tseug: -R | 16:02 |
| simonft2 | oh | 16:02 |

| mut80r | simonft2: gksudo for graphical apps | 16:02 |
| eternal_p | tseug: -R means include subdirectories | 16:02 |
| Neocortex | sata | 16:02 |
| mut80r | tseug: means recurse subdirectories, put it at the end | 16:02 |
| simonft2 | eternal_p:sudo: unable to resolve host simon-laptop | 16:03 |
| eternal_p | ah, right | 16:03 |

| cai | (n=todd@p5086BE04.dip.t-dialin.net) has joined #ubuntu | 16:03 |

| El1 | NinthWave: something seems to be wrong with pidgin, can't you see my private message? | 16:03 |
| eternal_p | simonft2: ok, I may be out of my knowledge on this one,,, try logging in as root from a tui with the same password, failing that, you 'may' have to boot from the liveCD, and edit the hosts file from there, are you good with that? | 16:03 |
| DinCahill | Neocortex: i think you need to mount it but im too nooby to know how | 16:04 |
| simonft2 | I'll try | 16:04 |
| eternal_p | simonft2: good luck :) | 16:04 |
| simonft2 | eternal_p: wait, sorry, tui? | 16:04 |

| Neocortex | DinCahill: I did proper shutdown | 16:05 |
| DinCahill | Neocortex: then i'm not sure what to suggest | 16:05 |

| regis | what was the wine version of ubuntu gusty? | 16:08 |
| amenado | chazco out of curiousity, what does your grub entry look like for this 8.04 to boot? can you paste it? should only be about 3-4 lines | 16:09 |
| bazhang | chazco: try with adding acpi=off | 16:09 |
| eternal_p | simonft2: go to sys: admin: network: unlock: general tab | 16:09 |
| un2him | KooperKool: search for it in the repositories, using synaptic | 16:09 |
| Kilgariff | Does anyone know if samba is slower than SSH? | 16:09 |
| erUSUL | chazco: well sata drivers as well as usb-storage and others uses scsi kernel infrastructure to function | 16:09 |
| crashanddie | erUSUL, that is very sketchy french that ubotu uses there... | 16:09 |
| chazco | amenado - Just the default stuff... bazhang - It worked on Gusty, so i'm a bit unsure | 16:09 |

| eternal_p | simonft2: np, this will do the same as editing the host file, so this should fix the problem | 16:10 |
| yowshi | other then the need to reinstall video drivers of course | 16:10 |
| bazhang | KooperKool: you might want to try youtube-dl and download the vids you like | 16:10 |

| sploby | How do you make Dual-Monitor work on Hardy without have a blank screen every time you start the system? | 16:10 |
| eternal_p | N1NCHN41L5: if you primary os is windows, 8.04 does it automatically for you | 16:10 |
| KooperKool | no, I mean my computer's sound is out. My Computer sound isn't working. My Volume is all the way up. | 16:10 |
| elmer | I think 8.04 broke Nexuiz | 16:10 |

| bazhang | yowshi: no such guarantees are possible; best to run the livecd and see how it does | 16:10 |
| crashanddie | erUSUL, ok, thanks | 16:10 |
| ssam | yowshi, depends how many changes you have made since you installed gutsy | 16:10 |
| esteth_ | yowshi: The upgrade process can not be made 100% stable. It has to deal with differences in everyones system. However if you were going to upgrade with a format anyway, it probably doesn't hurt to try the upgrade after your normal backup, and if it works it saves you a format | 16:11 |
| erUSUL | crashanddie: ops of the channel hopefully will review and aprove | 16:11 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | i just insatlaled ubuntu on a 7.36g primary partition now i want to load PCLinuxOS | 16:11 |
| yowshi | bazhang: i have no doubt that hardy is stable but upgrading is different from installing | 16:11 |
| Cola | hi | 16:11 |
| bazhang | yowshi: upgrades are fine | 16:11 |
| eternal_p | N1NCHN41L5: why not insatll it in virtualbox | 16:11 |
| chazco | amenado - Theres a path the the kernel, a path to the initrd and the word "quiet" | 16:11 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | eternal_p: there will be NO windows on this comp | 16:11 |
| yowshi | bazhang: cool then i can commence the upgrade process | 16:11 |
| ssam | yowshi, if you have installed lots of third party stuff, or had to do lots of tweaks to make things work, then there is a higher chance of the upgrade breaking | 16:11 |
| simonft2 | eternal_p: Thank you so much | 16:11 |
| amenado | yowshi do like what i did, run a the iso from hard disk without installation, using your existing linux | 16:11 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | to slow only 256 ram PIII 1,2g cpu | 16:11 |
| simonft2 | eternal_p: that completely fixed it | 16:12 |
| KooperKool | my computer's sound is out. My Computer sound isn't working. My Volume is all the way up. | 16:12 |
| tseug | how do i delete a directory including all it's contents | 16:12 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | if i want a diff disrto it needs to be on hdd | 16:12 |
| eternal_p | simonft2: excellent, when in doubt, put the exact error in google with the word ubuntu at the end ;) | 16:12 |
| bazhang | yowshi: do you have a bunch of third party repos or used third party installer scripts? | 16:12 |
| amenado | chazco i do not have that on mine.. so i see every message the boot loader spits out | 16:12 |
| yowshi | amenado: that would tell me something i am prety sure of already that hardy is stable. the ubuntu folks do a decent job with thier stuff | 16:12 |
| mut80r | eternal_p: lol | 16:12 |
| eternal_p | N1NCHN41L5: you are probably asking for trouble, but grub can handle it, but I can't tell you how | 16:12 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | i got all the partitions ready externed - virtual | 16:12 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | SOME HAS TO KNWO | 16:12 |
| amenado | yowshi okay, go for it then..not sure what your question was | 16:12 |
| erUSUL | tseug: rm -r directory/ | 16:12 |
| yowshi | bazhang: not so much no i have compiz-beryl installed thats about the biggest third party thing i have | 16:12 |
| mut80r | !caps | 16:12 |
| ubotu | PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too. | 16:12 |
| chazco | ACPI ata_piix seems to be were it freezes | 16:13 |
| eternal_p | simonft2: happy to help | 16:13 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | sorry | 16:13 |
| elmer | can anyone on Hardy confirm or deny that Nexuiz is working? | 16:13 |
| bazhang | yowshi: as always, back up first if you have not already | 16:13 |
| un2him | KooperKool: sorry, man, that program is just for audio. it will convert, but only audio. my bad | 16:13 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | weird thing is this dino comp runs ubuntu with compiz better than plain cubuntu | 16:13 |
| graphikeye | does creating a mount point on an existing ext2 partition erase the data on it? | 16:13 |
| tseug | thanks erUSUL | 16:13 |
| chazco | May go back to Gusty on the laptop | 16:13 |
| eternal_p | elmer: there was a post about nexuiz in the development forum, I would google it for more info | 16:13 |
| mut80r | graphikeye: no | 16:13 |
| yowshi | amenado: my question was would -upgrading- using the upgrade feature break. i have found that upgrading and installing dont work the same. a basic install is easy and usualy stable an upgrade can break in funny ways | 16:13 |
| elmer | eternal_p, thanks, I will | 16:13 |
| erUSUL | tseug: no problem | 16:13 |
| eternal_p | graphikeye: only if you click "format" | 16:13 |
| eternal_p | :) | 16:13 |
| crashanddie | graphikeye, of course not | 16:14 |
| pixelmonkey | can someone point me to the FAQ entry about how I can get firefox2 back? Firefox3 is nice and all, but most of the add-ons I'm used to don't work. | 16:14 |
| graphikeye | so, if i want to install 8.04 over my existing 7.10 i should be ok? | 16:14 |
| mut80r | pixelmonkey: I have it, hold on | 16:14 |
| bazhang | pixelmonkey: install it | 16:14 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | graphikeye: just resize the partition in gparted | 16:14 |
| crashanddie | graphikeye, eh ? | 16:14 |
| yowshi | bazhang: i dont have the hard drive space to backup all my stuff | 16:14 |
| erUSUL | !upgrade | graphikeye | 16:14 |
| ubotu | graphikeye: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | 16:14 |
| eternal_p | pixelmonkey: if you google nightly tester tools you can make more of 'em working, outside of that there is a step by step in tips and tricks | 16:14 |
| amenado | yowshi-> let me put it this way, my confidence in a fresh install is higher than an upgraded install..hows that? | 16:14 |
| graphikeye | thanks. awesome | 16:14 |
| mut80r | pixelmonkey: http://www.nabble.com/Ubuntu-8.04:-Migrating-to-Firefox-2.0.0.x-from-Firefox-3-Beta-td16898183.html | 16:14 |
| tseug | how can i access my USB disk through shell? | 16:15 |
| eternal_p | pixlemonkey: I'm waiting with bated breath for google browser sync for FF3 | 16:15 |
| sploby | And no one can help me? | 16:15 |
| amenado | tseug-> just like any other partitions, they are like directories once mounted | 16:15 |
| bazhang | ask your question sploby | 16:15 |
| eternal_p | sploby: what is your question? | 16:15 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | no ideas on a second linux os - i know it can be done seen threads guys sayt they got 6 plus | 16:15 |
| yowshi | amenado: yeah but fresh means i lose everything i have installed including games and stuff and i dont want to go through and install everything some of it i dont know the name of i just use it now and then and i found it while browsing | 16:15 |
| sploby | How do you make Dual-Monitor work on Hardy without have a blank screen every time you start the system? | 16:16 |
| xionox | hi | 16:16 |
| tseug | amenado, i don't know where to find the directory | 16:16 |
| amenado | yowshi now this is your call then, you take the plunge and start fresh or you fiddle and tweak til it satisfies your needs | 16:16 |
| xionox | I need some help about backuppc :) | 16:16 |
| tseug | amenado, i'm looking in " ls / " but i only see a 'cdrom' | 16:16 |
| amenado | tseug-> first it has to be mounted, | 16:16 |
| mut80r | N1NCHN41L5: it can be done. run the PCLinuxOS installer and it should detect you have GRUB already and add itself to the boot menu. | 16:16 |
| eternal_p | N1NCHN41LS: http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/linux-newbie/60680-linux-linux-dual-boot.html (first result) | 16:16 |
| ssam | N1NCHN41L5, most linux installers do a pretty good job of finding other linux distros and making a GRUB list to boot all of them | 16:16 |
| yowshi | amenado: i'll fiddle i have a 50/50 track record with uphgrades. fiesty gave me touble but gutsy didnt | 16:16 |
| tseug | amenado, how do i mount? | 16:16 |
| amenado | tseug any storage devices has to be mounted first | 16:17 |
| amenado | yowshi its your call.. | 16:17 |
| mehrab | why I cant change my keyboard layout (language) with Alt+Alt keys? | 16:17 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | ssam can i pm u and go through the stages - ive FU*KED up 3 times now with ubuntu and muppy008 | 16:17 |
| Fritzel | what signal is sent to an application to get it to try to safely exit? | 16:17 |
| bazhang | N1NCHN41L5: language | 16:17 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | using PCLinuxOS cause i have official cd | 16:17 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | i editedit | 16:17 |
| alpharesearch | where is the new icon in 8.04 to setup the video | 16:17 |
| amenado | yowshi-> you have already made up your mind anyway, asking us seems wasteful | 16:17 |
| erUSUL | Fritzel: the kill default signal | 16:17 |
| ssam | N1NCHN41L5, ok | 16:18 |
| Fritzel | ahh alright that makes it easy then | 16:18 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | but will be more catuis | 16:18 |
| Fritzel | thank you | 16:18 |
| crashanddie | mut80r, that firefox link you gave is really bad | 16:18 |
| alpharesearch | i want to change from vesa to nvidia | 16:18 |
| erUSUL | Fritzel: is SIGSTOP i think | 16:18 |
| Beererde | hi. my gtk-window-decoration is not working. how can i fix it?= | 16:18 |
| yowshi | amenado: well i know i will upgrade i was just wondering what the general excperience with this upgrade has been. have there been a large number of instances where it brokew | 16:18 |
| mut80r | crashanddie: it worked for me. I'm on firefox-2. how is it bad ? | 16:18 |
| alpharesearch | do i need to edit xorg.conf now? | 16:18 |
| yowshi | amenado: if there were i would put it off maybe even until the next version | 16:18 |
| Konam | hi, I just installed hardy and i want to know how to disable the shade of the top panel in the title bar of the windows i open | 16:18 |
| Konam | ? | 16:18 |
| crashanddie | mut80r, they imply that 2 versions of firefox should not be installed at one given time | 16:19 |
| mut80r | crashanddie: well, it's true, with conflicting configurations and all .. | 16:19 |
| amenado | yowshi-> it just came out two days ago, and you expect in-depth experience and troubles listed already? come on... | 16:19 |
| sploby | bazhang: Do you know? | 16:19 |
| yowshi | amenado: crap i thought it came out on the first of april | 16:19 |
| crashanddie | mut80r, it's not true at all, I have FF2 and FF3 at the same time, with no problems whatsoever | 16:20 |
| yowshi | amenado: sorry i had my info wrong my bad | 16:20 |
| alpharesearch | is there not a tool that can help to change form vesa to nvidia | 16:20 |
| bazhang | mut80r: indeed you can have both | 16:20 |

| crashanddie | !firefox2 | 16:20 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about firefox2 - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 16:20 |
| mut80r | crashanddie: well, whatever works for you. :) I wouldn't try both but will get rid of ff2 when ff3 final comes out. | 16:20 |
| landspite | i'm having trouble with GDM under vmware, where is the screen resolution configured for gdm? | 16:20 |
| amenado | landspite-> that would be same place as if you were running in native as opposed to vmware? | 16:21 |
| landspite | where is that ;) | 16:21 |
| alpharesearch | what is the command line name of the tool that was used in 7.10 to change the graphics card? | 16:21 |
| amenado | landspite-> hunt around xorg.conf or System-->preferences | 16:22 |
| mut80r | landspite: /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 16:22 |
| landspite | ok | 16:22 |

| hilts50 | Im trying to install Hardy on an external Firewire drive from my macbook pro. Install appears to go fine.. When I reboot after install and choose to boot to the external im told that it can't find a boot device. Any ideas? | 16:26 |
| schnootop | eternal_p, i just changed back over to metacity and i still cant access the resolution screen | 16:27 |
| mut80r | red_: crashanddie suggests that you can have both. that choice is up to you. | 16:27 |
| eternal_p | schnootop: what do you mean you "can't access" and what video card? | 16:27 |
| tuxice | what is the package called with the ubuntu title font and capitals | 16:27 |
| PhotoJim | hilts50: does your macbook support booting over firewire? that'd be the obvious first thing to check. | 16:27 |

| eternal_p | schnootop: ah..good ol ati, I didn't see the error before, sorry | 16:28 |
| simmerz | I'm now using hardy | 16:28 |
| PhotoJim | hilts50: k. that's the extent of my intelligent advice, alas. but it might pay to read the grub man page. perhaps you can manually install the boot sector on the external drive, if it's missing. I assume the drive isn't coming up at all and you're not even getting grub. | 16:28 |
| red_ | mut80r i dont get you sorry. im now opening the link you just gave me | 16:29 |
| schnootop | eternal_p, do you know if there are better drivers that i can use besides the defaults ? | 16:29 |

| alpharesearch | amenado: thanks a lot | 16:30 |
| red_ | mut80r thanks. be back in a while | 16:30 |
| eternal_p | schnootop: the best thing is to throw the error into google with the word ubuntu @ the end | 16:30 |
| PhotoJim | hilts50: ok, that's a bit different. if you look at the grub screen, there will be an option to edit the boot command line. something is awry in it. | 16:30 |

| mut80r | J-Unit: Ctrl + C | 16:36 |
| Pinky | I could forward ssh requests based on location | 16:36 |
| PhotoJim | Millertime_018: I know Ubuntu supports it because the card was in my now-dead primary desktop and it worked. | 16:36 |
| Millertime_018 | at the same time so that i dont have to explain twice | 16:36 |
| ssam | Pinky, what do you want to do | 16:36 |
| aerio | the new console ubuntu firewall | 16:36 |

| Azerthoth | OllieA sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf you will then find the resolutions, the format is self explanatory | 16:37 |
| Dante123 | hi all, I had to go through a lot of steps to get ubuntu to work with a graphics card versus using the integrated one (which had to be disabled in bios etc.) Do you think I should do a fresh install of hardy (and likely have to go through the same number of steps) or just upgrade? Shouln't upgrade work without having to redo the steps for using non-integrated graphics card (an plugging and unplugging it into integrated/non integrate | 16:37 |

| ssam | Pinky, not that i know of, could you do it at a firewall level? | 16:37 |
| Millertime_018 | mattperry: you the same problem? new sound card or fresh install and no sound? | 16:37 |
| kevin4381 | much less supportive in #compiz-fusion --- does anybody have compiz-fusion working w/dual monitors? if so, are your monitors running @ the same resolutions? | 16:37 |
| KooperKool | quit: | 16:37 |
| Millertime_018 | photojim: are you sure that ubuntu has the driver as of right now? | 16:37 |
| aroo | Dante123, I have had an overwhelmingly better time simply installing clean rather than upgrading. | 16:37 |
| OllieA | Azorthoth which section do they go in? | 16:38 |
| amenado | Dante123-> you have enuff space on your hard disk? you can put the 8.04 iso on hd and boot from it | 16:38 |
| Pinky | well, I could try, but my firewall sucks :\ | 16:38 |
| mattperry | Millertime_018: fresh install...finally got sound from apps to work, but no system sounds | 16:38 |

| PhotoJim | Millertime_018: yup, the sound card worked perfectly on my former main desktop. it died, I pilfered parts from it and put them in this older desktop. the card works under WinXP on this machine so the harware is functioning. just not sure how to elegantly convince Ubuntu that I changed sound cards. | 16:38 |

| bazhang | helloworld: ifconfig | 16:38 |
| gapagos | the program is useless lol | 16:38 |
| mut80r | Havnfun: the DVD includes more packages so you don't need net access to install some. | 16:39 |
| crashanddie | Havnfun, the DVD has more packages on it, so that you don't need to download them later on | 16:39 |

| mut80r | crashanddie: beat ya :P | 16:39 |
| PhotoJim | Millertime_018: the speakers are just plugged into the audio jack, they aren't USB. and they work when I boot into WinXP on this machine. | 16:39 |
| cirkit | aroo: ahh thanks a lot ... a simple selection of the external card in sound preferences should do then ;) | 16:39 |
| gapagos | aroo, they dont show up in my files list in the program | 16:39 |
| bazhang | Havnfun: dvd has server live and alternate on it | 16:39 |

| PhotoJim | Millertime_018: I'll check that out. I was thinking that it might just fix itself when I upgrade to hardy heron, but I can't get that to work either. my repository is absolutely overwhelmed. | 16:40 |
| mattperry | Millertime_018: yes...that part will control all sound from apps, but no sound from rhythmbox or system sounds | 16:40 |
| Fritzel | I'm getting this message for one a program I'm trying to configure, "Please set MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME to your Mozilla directory." how would I know where that is? | 16:40 |
| mut80r | J-Unit: is the app running inside the terminal or you want to kill a running app FROM the terminal? | 16:40 |
| bazhang | N1NCHN41L5: what is the question | 16:40 |
| ssam | Pinky, i have to ssh boxes behind a NAT router, one on 22 and one on 23 | 16:40 |
| crashanddie | J-Unit, kill -15 ? | 16:40 |
| cory_ | i think how do u know if i am | 16:40 |
| El1 | aroo: I have the 6700XL, I'm sure it is available in the nvidia-glx-new package, but I just need the hardware manager to search it again in the repos | 16:40 |
| Millertime_018 | photojim: run command "lspci" and pastebin your result for fast access incase some one can | 16:40 |
| Havnfun | crashanddie: Ah - Thought that might be the case. It takes longer on the install of DVD version - but is ok to spend less time on net too. | 16:40 |
| Millertime_018 | so that you will be ready | 16:40 |
| Millertime_018 | give me the pastebin address as well | 16:40 |
| KooperKool | Kevin4381: My Monitors are excactly the same. Dell UltraSharp 17' Screens. | 16:40 |
| aroo | El1, sorry I don't know how to control where the hardware manager looks :( | 16:40 |

| Pinky | hmm, well, that would definitely be a nice solution, although I can never get my firewall to open for anything except every single port | 16:41 |
| Millertime_018 | photojim: about upgrading... | 16:41 |

| yahya__ | hi, is there anyway to bypass the auto system file check on boot? it is getting stuck on 70% and I need to do something urgently! | 16:42 |
| ssam | Pinky, is your firewall a broadband router type thing | 16:42 |
| Millertime_018 | it may or may not be best to go with a fresh install every time; i was told before i installed hardy that i should go with a fresh install every time, but when i told this advice to a friend i was shunned for giving bad advice | 16:42 |
| KooperKool | Can I have my Win Programs (Running in Wine) running on a Virutal Desktop. (No, not virutal box or anything) | 16:42 |
| J-Unit | mut80r, ya but dont i have to specify which app i want to kill? | 16:42 |
| mut80r | yahya__: edit /etc/fstab and remove the 1 from pass column | 16:42 |
| gapagos | aroo yes | 16:42 |
| mut80r | J-Unit: thats what the PID is for | 16:42 |
| bazhang | KooperKool: virtual desktop? what is that | 16:42 |
| gapagos | aroo, this program is version 0.0.2 ok that explains it | 16:43 |
| amenado | yahya__-> singel user mode, and fix it from there | 16:43 |
| Creeture | Hey kids. Is diald still the recommended solution for PPP dial-on-demand in Ubuntu? | 16:43 |
| PhotoJim | Millertime_018: I've had good luck with upgrades in the past, and it saves me a ton of reconfigging. I have tons of Firefox applets, keys for ssh authentication, etc. so if I can upgrade, it will save me a ton of time. :) | 16:43 |
| Millertime_018 | mattperry: under the box that shows up when you double click the sound icon there is an edit menu with prefrences there. that will give you some enabling options | 16:43 |

| J-Unit | mut80r, o so pid means process id? | 16:43 |
| yahya__ | mut80r, i am not on the system, it keeps getting stuck on 70%, anything I can add to boot options to bypass it? | 16:43 |
| nith | bazhang: virtual desktop is the linux original name for ubuntu's "workspaces" | 16:43 |
| gapagos | video editing not yet ready for Ubuntu lol | 16:43 |
| amenado | Creeture-> possibly, no other ones that can do such | 16:43 |
| Pinky | I was hoping there was something like mod_proxy for ssh, so I wouldn't need to do anything w/ my firewall... oh well, I guess | 16:43 |
| crashanddie | J-Unit, -15 is not necessary, SIGTERM is the default behaviour | 16:43 |
| mut80r | J-Unit: yes. it's a numerical value assigned to each process. | 16:43 |
| AtomicSpark | Haha. For lulz i opened my clock to see if gnome would freeze. it did. -_- | 16:43 |
| bazhang | auruspex: best to ask in #compiz for that | 16:43 |
| PhotoJim | I5487: type only in English? OK, that's a wisecrack answer. ;) | 16:43 |

| JenFraggle | please can someone help with a mouse problem on hardy. thanks | 16:44 |
| crashanddie | J-Unit, the one you're looking for (if a program locked up or doesn't respond to -15) is SIGKILL (or -9) | 16:44 |

| bazhang | !away > Scrounch | 16:45 |
| crashanddie | J-Unit, so the syntax would be kill -9 PID, you can get the process ID through ps (man ps), alternatively, you could use killall to bypass the PS step, and directly give the name of processes to kill | 16:45 |

| mut80r | Wiredtape: if you're removing grub or ubuntu, after removing it you will need to reinstate the other OS'es bootloader. if it's vista you can do this from recovery options on the vista dvd. otherwise go into recovery mode from an XP cd | 16:47 |

| bazhang | !password | itaku | 16:50 |
| J-Unit | crashanddie, so all i need to do is killall nameofrunningappiwanttokill ? | 16:50 |
| ubotu | itaku: Forgot your password? Boot into recovery mode. What's the root password? See !sudo. Don't see *** in password prompts? That's normal. Sudo doesn't ask for your password? It remembers you for several minutes. Please use strong passwords, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/StrongPasswords | 16:50 |
| eternal_p | doomskilllet: just ask the question :) | 16:50 |
| mut80r | bazhang: thanks. | 16:50 |

| Leeuw | bazhang: I think giry needs help with irc workingz | 16:51 |
| mut80r | Itaku: not much you can do. | 16:51 |
| bazhang | itaku and then promptly forgot it? that is why you should not use root but sudo | 16:51 |

| eternal_p | doomskillet: you can run 32 or 64 bit on a 64-bit processor, a 64-bit OS needs a little more love | 16:52 |
| Itaku | there has to be a way so i can use sudo without enering a pass | 16:52 |
| doomskillet | eternal_p, I've been running Ubuntu, neat, for over two years now - but I'm not elite :) | 16:52 |
| bazhang | N1NCHN41L5: which distros and what is the exact issue | 16:52 |
| crashanddie | N1NCHN41L5, don't ask if we can help, ask a concise question and people will help you | 16:52 |
| errpast | JenFraggle, Looks like maybe a device change name. Others had exact issue on upgrade. Try solution here http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2485990 | 16:52 |
| amenado | Dante123-> i stepped out, possibly yeah running the livecd will get you to test it..try | 16:52 |
| eternal_p | N1NCHN41L5: just because you log off and come back 10mins later, people don't forget you | 16:52 |
| crashanddie | bazhang, you have to ask "which distro" ? Seriously ? | 16:52 |
| eternal_p | use google to find your answers | 16:52 |

When I type lspci -v this is what I got: Broadcom Corporation BCM4306 802.11b/g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 03). But now when I try to install the firmware I see there are two options: bcm43xx-fwcutter and b43-fwcutter. I don't know which one is the right choice to me :( | 16:53 |

| Frozenball | Are there "extended extended partitions?" | 16:55 |
| doomskillet | eternal_p: so, as long as I forget about 64-bit Firefox then Flash will work okay? | 16:55 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | there are 3 choices for partitions | 16:56 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | primary | 16:56 |
| crashanddie | N1NCHN41L5, if I were you, I'd create one primary partition per OS, and cut their subpartitions into the extended ones | 16:56 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | exteneded | 16:56 |
| mut80r | Itaku: you can't do anything if you forgot both passwords. | 16:56 |

| ubotu | You should avoid changing your nick in a busy channel like #ubuntu - it causes unrequired scrolling which is unfair to new users. (Please set your preferred nick in your client's settings instead.) The same goes for using noisy away messages; use the command "/away <reason>" to set your client away silently.

| trekkme | in my xorg.conf i have put only a resolution of 1280x1024 but gnome/ubuntu always falls back to 800x600 what could be the prob? | 17:00 |
| doomskillet | eternal_p: It's pretty much just stuff that uses lots of double-presision floating points and memory addressing over 4GB that will be affected, right? | 17:00 |
| mut80r | J-Unit: plug a cable between modem and router's internet port. plug cable between router and pc. restart modem. restart router. | 17:00 |
| OllieA | Itaku: Or whatever | 17:00 |
| Itaku | OllieA: you can scroll | 17:00 |

| herghost | how do I remove a corrupt software installation if the corruption is stopping apt-get and dpkg from working? | 17:01 |
| GoodJob | i have just xmms2tray in the repos | 17:01 |
| Nith | J-Unit: you're not being stupid, people don't need to know. There is no software config if its an off the shelf router | 17:01 |
| eternal_p | doomskillet: if you don't know what you would 64-bit for...you don't need it | 17:01 |
| eternal_p | :0 | 17:01 |
| OllieA | Itaku: In drop down, there is no 1024x768 | 17:01 |
| eternal_p | :) | 17:01 |
| lordofthepigs | Sindacious, sudo /etc/init.d/apache restart | 17:01 |

| herghost | mut80r: thank you I will try that | 17:01 |
| cyberfree | hello | 17:01 |
| J-Unit | mut80r, Nith, thx :) i should be geting high speed rely soon (im on dial-up sadly :() | 17:01 |
| MrObvious | !hi | cyberfree | 17:01 |
| ubotu | cyberfree: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 17:01 |
| MrObvious | Now be polite ubotu. :p | 17:01 |
| Itaku | how do i open a terminal through nautilus? | 17:01 |
| OllieA | !hi | 17:02 |
| GoodJob | how can i download the source of xmms2 and then compile it? | 17:02 |
| su-hoens`rZ | i just did a sudo apt-get update | 17:02 |
| dmsuperman | tiax, I mainly want it so when I leave with xchat open and somebody calls my name I can see what they sent me, and /lastlog only searches within the text that's currently in the buffer | 17:02 |
| doomskillet | eternal_p: You're right about that, I suppose - though there's plenty of tech I kick myself for not adopting earlier after the fact. | 17:02 |
| crashanddie | J-Unit, high speed eh :) | 17:02 |
| mut80r | MrObvious: LOL. | 17:02 |
| Sindacious | lordofthepigs, "No such file or directory" | 17:02 |
| MrObvious | GoodJob: Go to the XMMS website? | 17:02 |
| su-hoens`rZ | sudo: unable to resolve host hoens-linux | 17:02 |
| mut80r | crashanddie, J-Unit: 20mbps fibre optic here. | 17:02 |
| su-hoens`rZ | er | 17:02 |
| dmsuperman | Nith, any idea what I might call such a script? like is there a certain name or something of that effect for it? | 17:02 |
| su-hoens`rZ | and now when i try to sudo, i get the following error: sudo: unable to resolve host hoens-linux | 17:02 |
| crashanddie | mut80r, nice :) | 17:02 |
| dassouki | is there a way i can remove all my sound car information and reinstall sound from scratch ? | 17:02 |
| eternal_p | doomskillet: so when yo uinstall your new OS, put /home on its own partitoin, so if you want to go 64-bit you don't need to backup | 17:02 |
| Nith | Itaku: its easier to hit ALT+F2 then "gnome-terminal" but you could also navigate to /usr/bin then double click on "gnome-terminal" | 17:02 |
| crashanddie | mut80r, 100Mbit down/50Mbit up | 17:02 |
| errpast | GoodJob, are you sure it's not in repo? I am running 7.10 on this mahcine. sudo apt-cache search xmms yields about 30 hits | 17:02 |
| J-Unit | crashanddie, mut80r, u ppl r so luky :( | 17:02 |
| tiax | dmsuperman: well check the scripts archive on xchat.org then | 17:02 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | 1509 people here and no one can walk through with me??? | 17:02 |
| mut80r | crashanddie: omg. | 17:02 |
| J-Unit | crashanddie, mut80r, well ill be one of u :) | 17:03 |
| herghost | mut80r - same error - the corrupt file is stopping all apt-get operations from completing :( | 17:03 |
| Kr0ntab | su-hoens`rZ: is that what ya get now when you typw sudo? | 17:03 |
| doomskillet | eternal_p: That seems like sound advice :) Thanks! | 17:03 |
| GoodJob | the old xmms still exists | 17:03 |
| su-hoens`rZ | Kr0ntab yes | 17:03 |
| tzakieta | hello , can anyone help me with the monitor's refresh rate in ubuntu 8.4? my eyes are killing me | 17:03 |
| lordofthepigs | Sindacious, sorry: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart | 17:03 |
| Nith | dmsuperman: first instinct is "alert script" but I don't know. I'm using irssi and get colored notifications of my name used | 17:03 |
| eternal_p | np! | 17:03 |
| crashanddie | mut80r, how much do you pay for it ? | 17:03 |
| Kr0ntab | su-hoens`rZ: did you edit your /etc/hosts file? | 17:03 |
| MrObvious | !refresh rate | tzakieta | 17:03 |
| ubotu | Sorry, I don't know anything about refresh rate - try searching on http://ubotu.ubuntu-nl.org/factoids.cgi | 17:03 |
| dmsuperman | tiax, Yeah that's with Nith suggested so that's what I'm looking for | 17:03 |
| rinaldi_ | anyone here have counterstrike source in steam with wine? Every time I join a game, it freezes when I get to team select. Any Ideas? | 17:03 |
| su-hoens`rZ | Kr0ntab hostname yields hoens-linux | 17:03 |
| GoodJob | but the old xmms does not support PulseAudio, doesn't it? | 17:03 |
| mut80r | crashanddie: £30/month | 17:03 |
| lordofthepigs | Sindacious, also try: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 --help to see what you can with the apache server | 17:03 |
| doomskillet | eternal_p: I do frequent backups, anyway. The way I figure it, when an OS upgrade is free, I don't need to prematurely optimize it :D | 17:03 |
| su-hoens`rZ | Kr0ntab: no, but i noticed taht that was gone from the file now | 17:03 |
| eternal_p | rinaldi_ best to ask in #wine | 17:03 |
| su-hoens`rZ | Kr0ntab after i updated | 17:03 |
| crashanddie | mut80r, ok, fair enough | 17:03 |
| bazhang | N1NCHN41L5: that is not a walkthrough type deal; there are some links given to you best to read them carefully before preceding then asked informed questions | 17:03 |
| errpast | GoodJob, I think you need to enable Universe repo | 17:03 |
| figuringout | hi, there is this ext3 partition i need to mount. I get this error " bad superblock" I was working before | 17:03 |
| GoodJob | universe, hmmm | 17:04 |
| dmsuperman | Nith, yeah, me too in XChat, but when I'm gone for a while and come back I can't see any such messages. I'll look for something like that though, i just wasn't sure what the feature is called that colors your name | 17:04 |
| crashanddie | dmsuperman, highlight | 17:04 |
| Nith | figuringout: try an fsck on it (make sure its not mounted) | 17:04 |
| eternal_p | figuringout: do a fsck on the volume | 17:04 |
| errpast | GoodJob, looks like xmms is in Universe. You can do that via Synaptic gui. Or straight to /etc/apt/sources.list | 17:04 |
| OllieA | How do I add a screen resolution to the drop down box in System => Preferences => Screen Resolution... | 17:04 |
| Kr0ntab | su-hoens`rZ: okay.. unless you have root with a password.... reboot into recovery console mode... and fix the /etc/hosts file manually... | 17:04 |
| dmsuperman | crashanddie, perfect, thanks :D | 17:04 |
| figuringout | eternaal_p: what will that do? | 17:04 |
| chazco | Hi... I have the Hardy slow start bug... adding clocksource=hpet to the kernel command line fixes it. Is it safe to make this permanent? erUSUL if you are still here the bug i was describing earlier is https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/190414 | 17:04 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | ive read many - u basically let the cd do the work - dont install grub go into /boot/menu.lst add other os and ur good | 17:04 |
| fstxx | what is required to play dvd's in hardy? The official doc is still 7.10, it sya you should install libdvdplay0, but that is not in the hardy repository. running the install-css script seems to work, but then gxine core dumps. Totem still gives meerror reading from resource error. What is the official story? | 17:05 |
| GoodJob | errpast, i have the Universe repo enabled in Software Sources | 17:05 |

| === seanh is now known as chombee | ||
| errpast | GoodJob, ok. | 17:05 |
| su-hoens`rZ | Kr0ntab can i do that remotely? :P | 17:05 |
| GoodJob | but i still don't get xmms2 | 17:05 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | but that failed miserably even when i had code to paste in nenu.lst written for me | 17:05 |
| GoodJob | it isn't fetched | 17:05 |
| su-hoens`rZ | Kr0ntab and why did upgrading cause my etc/hosts file to get overwritten | 17:05 |
| doomskillet | eternal_p: So, when everything starts to run smoothly on the 64-bit distro, I can just go ahead and upgrade. I doubt I'll notice any performance improvement on the 64-bit distro, anyway - at least, not enough to counter-balance the headaches I'm bound to encounter with the proprietary crap that we're still forced to deal with. | 17:05 |
| OllieA | How do I add a screen resolution to the drop down box in System => Preferences => Screen Resolution... | 17:05 |
| GoodJob | don't know why :/ | 17:05 |
| Nith | GoodJob: what about it don't you get? | 17:05 |

| === scrounch is now known as Scrounch | ||
| Kr0ntab | su-hoens`rZ: 127.0.0.1 should have localhosts next to it.... and 127.0.1.1 should have your hostname next to it. and maybe even your fully qualified domain name. | 17:05 |
| crashanddie | Scrounch, seriously, stop that | 17:05 |
| pwm | anyone know how I do an ipv6 version of X -query <hostname> where hostname is not an ipv4 address? | 17:05 |
| figuringout | eternal_p: did that, it did something. i still get the error | 17:05 |
| schnootop | does apache and virtual hosts work different in Hardy. there seems to be no a2ensite and my already enabled sites are unaccessible :\ | 17:06 |

| Havnfun | Hardy Heron 8.04 | 17:06 |
| Nith | OllieA: its dangerous, you'll have to modify the xorg file I think but I'm not sure how they implemented the applet | 17:06 |
| crashanddie | IndyGunFreak, My guess would be Linux | 17:06 |
| Havnfun | Final | 17:06 |
| Kr0ntab | su-hoens`rZ: gonna be pretty difficult to do that.... unless you have console access... | 17:06 |
| ondra | hi, is there any method how to mount iPhone FS in Ubuntu WITHOUT SSH? I didnt find anythinǵ... :-( | 17:07 |
| su-hoens`rZ | Kr0ntab yes, since i am sshed in and the upgrade process decided to break everything for no reason (which is nice of it) | 17:07 |
| IndyGunFreak | crashanddie: well no kidding,i meant version, and you'd be amazed at the nitwits that come here w/ windows questions | 17:07 |
| Kr0ntab | su-hoens`rZ: sorry to hear that mate... | 17:07 |
| OllieA | Nith: I have done that before, what do I add to it? | 17:07 |
| su-hoens`rZ | i have a terminal | 17:07 |
| errpast | IndyGunFreak, what's windows? | 17:07 |
| su-hoens`rZ | i just can't su :/ | 17:07 |

| lordofthepigs | Kr0ntab, I figure you know cron pretty well, don't you? | 17:07 |
| bazhang | ondra: you need to jailbreak the iphone to load stuff on it from gtkpod | 17:07 |
| su-hoens`rZ | yeaaaaaaaaaah | 17:07 |
| su-hoens`rZ | bout that | 17:07 |
| IndyGunFreak | crashanddie: i just got here... | 17:07 |

| Kr0ntab | lordofthepigs: like me. | 17:07 |
| Kr0ntab | hehe | 17:07 |
| IndyGunFreak | Havnfun: go to System/admin/hardware drivers is Nvidia enabled? | 17:08 |
| lordofthepigs | Kr0ntab, will crontabs execute even if my user is not logged in? | 17:08 |
| doomskillet | eternal_p: One more question, though: does the amd64 version run better on AMD processors than it does on Intel 64-bit processors that are compatible (i.e., the Core 2 series, not the Itaniums)? | 17:08 |
| herghost | how do I remove a corrupt software installation if the corruption is stopping apt-get and dpkg from working? | 17:08 |
| Havnfun | IndyGunFreak: Hang - will check | 17:08 |
| eternal_p | doomskillet: i honestly don't know, I perfer Intel over AMD, that is all I can tell you | 17:08 |
| Kr0ntab | lordofthepigs: yes... there's a cron daemon that runs as root... and executes it's schedule accordingly | 17:08 |

| lordofthepigs | Kr0ntab, if I need a task to run with root privileges (i need to mount and unmount a drive) should I just add a crontab to root? | 17:09 |
| Nith | OllieA: I withdraw my previous suggestion, it appears hardy does not store resolutions in xorg, which means they fully started using xrandr | 17:09 |
| su-hoens`rZ | how is that supposed to help at all :/ | 17:09 |
| Kr0ntab | su-hoens`rZ: is this a virtual server on a hosted service? | 17:09 |

| doomskillet | eternal_p: You know what? I'm still ambivalent :/ All that datapath sitting dark... "nature abhors a no-op," right? It also seems wrong to leave so much of one's datapath idle, unless... does 32-bit mode on those things take advantage of all that extra logic and bus width somehow? | 17:13 |

| hypercity | lik: thx | 17:16 |
| blbrown | is anyone having problems with nvdia-settings and heron. I had this perfect dual monitor setup, now nvidia-settings doesnt detect one of the monitors and is generating all kinds of errors at the console | 17:16 |
| Kr0ntab | lordofthepigs: because you want the execution in order and at the right time... | 17:16 |
| eyyYo | marx2k, thank you | 17:17 |

| GoodJob | be well now | 17:17 |
| GoodJob | bye ;) | 17:17 |
| bazhang | you too | 17:17 |
| amenado | eyyYo-> juidicious usage of iptables perhaps..marking the uid or pid of packets for such apps..but its a bit more work to plan for | 17:17 |
| lordofthepigs | Kr0ntab, do the lines need to be in any specific order, or is it just the time definition? | 17:17 |
| crashanddie | bazhang, Good Job ! | 17:17 |
| Kr0ntab | lordofthepigs: you can have it run as root... or... as another user. root in those cases will just su to that user... basily run as | 17:17 |
| errpast | Soskel, Just a bad joke poking fun at self....nothing useful | 17:17 |
| eyyYo | amenado, okey | 17:17 |
| Konam | errpast that isn't an excuse. anyways, the time when we could change it is long gone. | 17:17 |
| Soskel | you call this a friendly community? when someone comes in asking a question not 100% relative to this channel, you won't answer it, you'll just threaten to ban them? If you come here to help, then help. It doesn't matter what channel you're in. | 17:17 |
| Optimus55 | errpast: which broadcom card do you have? | 17:17 |
| errpast | Optimus55, Yes, on my friend's machine. | 17:17 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | just buy asking every 5 min>>>> | 17:17 |
| lordofthepigs | Kr0ntab, I plan to use 59 1 * * * mount , 0 2 * * * * backup, 0 4 * * * unmount | 17:17 |
| bazhang | crashanddie: arg terrible pun ;] | 17:17 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | ? | 17:18 |
| Optimus55 | hmm | 17:18 |
| Konam | errpast but its a bad sign in the ubuntu development | 17:18 |
| lordofthepigs | Kr0ntab, that should do it right? | 17:18 |
| plik | hypercity: welcome... read the man page for each, so you know the difference ) | 17:18 |
| === orson_j is now known as Jack_Sparrow | ||
| Kr0ntab | lordofthepigs: just the definition... however... here's the thing. if your previous line is still running... and you unmount based off of simply time... and not job completion... you will try to unmount unsuccessfully.. or screw your backup. | 17:18 |
| bazhang | !ot | Soskel please chit chat elsewhere | 17:18 |
| ubotu | Soskel please chit chat elsewhere: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 17:18 |
| amenado | Soskel-> friendly enuff for a bout thousands that are here | 17:18 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | sorry TOTAL newb still | 17:18 |
| errpast | Konam, it did seem quick for an LTS, compare to 6.06, which I think was a few months late. | 17:18 |
| amenado | N1NCHN41L5-> me too..whats the question? | 17:18 |
| lordofthepigs | Kr0ntab, Yeah, I know, that's why I took 2 hours, while I don't expect the backup to run for more than 40 minutes | 17:18 |
| z0g | stay with windows, N1NCHN41L5 :> | 17:18 |
| Kr0ntab | lordofthepigs: yes... of course you'll need to expand your cmd's.. but im sure you know that | 17:19 |
| crashanddie | N1NCHN41L5, exactly because you're asking every 5 minutes, and because you're obviously not searching on your own... You just hope we'll shove a pre-baked answer into your throat and wave you goodbye... Jump on Google, find information, get further. We don't *have* to help, we might just can. Don't rely on us, but help us as much as you want to be helped yourself. | 17:19 |

| erUSUL | !es | Villarroel | 17:19 |
| ubotu | Villarroel: Aquí solamente hablamos inglés. Para Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es - allí obtendrá más ayuda. | 17:19 |
| z0g | N1NCHN41L5, it's MS. not M$. | 17:19 |
| lordofthepigs | Kr0ntab, I have to do it that way because sbackup doesn't have start/end hook scripts | 17:19 |
| plik | eugman: google know lots ;) | 17:19 |
| z0g | besides, they have great boxes for you N1NCHN41L5. They're called macs :> | 17:19 |
| Kr0ntab | lordofthepigs: what you can also do... is create a complete backup script.. that mounts... exececutes your sbackup process... and then unmounts... so you only need one cron... | 17:20 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | ive read MANY tutorails an get lost in the changing grub stuff they alllll talk about | 17:20 |
| bazhang | eugman: you mgith look into mediatomb | 17:20 |
| crashanddie | eugman, what do you mean by "music server" ? Like a server that would just host files ? Or that would also be connected to a surround system ? | 17:20 |
| lordofthepigs | Kr0ntab, thanks for the help, I should be able to do that myself from now on | 17:20 |
| crashanddie | eugman, if it's only hosting files, you should look into samba and nfs | 17:20 |
| Kr0ntab | lordofthepigs: ok cooool. | 17:20 |
| amenado | N1NCHN41L5-> would you like a nice linux tutorial? http://free-electrons.com/training/intro_unix_linux really nice | 17:20 |

| Yan1 | Since I upgraded to hardy, the driver for my radeon 9200 is disabled/away... first time I started hardy everthing was ok, then the system switched to "low grphics mode". I changed from "vesa" zo my card and now I'm in fullgrphics mode but its very slow. How can I activate the "restricted" driver I had in gutsy?Since I upgraded to hardy, the driver for my radeon 9200 is disabled/away... first time I started hardy everthing was ok, | 17:22 |
| ompaul | be nice | 17:22 |
| z0g | N1NCHN41L5, I am too rude to everyone. :> excuse me if you're offended by the way | 17:22 |
| plik | hypercity: then rsync -avz /path/to/src /path/to/dest/ <== note: No trailing / on the src dir... read the man page as i suggested - it's explained there :) | 17:22 |
| cory_ | how do i do that if i cant get on the internet | 17:22 |
| KaduBRA | I installed Ubuntu 2 times, one for Wubi into Windows and 1 from live live cd | 17:22 |
| errpast | Yan1, Maybe enable backport? | 17:22 |

| KaduBRA | but, it don't work | 17:22 |
| darren_ | whin i try to go to win xp all i see is starting....... and nothing happens after that | 17:23 |
| Zacaa | how can it be that I dont have /lib/modules/2.6.24-16-generic/volatile/nvidia_new.ko ? | 17:23 |
| amenado | Andy80-> base count from 0? hehe.. like in the naming of partitions by grub? | 17:23 |

| CommanderCool | since that hardy-upgrade i can no more move a file on a ntfs drive into trash by pressing "delete"...help anyone? | 17:23 |
| Zacaa | I dont even have the volatile directory ? | 17:23 |
| Zacaa | why is that? | 17:23 |
| KaduBRA | error 15: file don't found (on the boot) | 17:23 |
| errpast | Yan1, that's a wild guess..could be way off base. But I had similar issue with a sound card AFTER an upgrade. | 17:23 |
| Zacaa | does anyone know ? | 17:23 |
| plik | hypercity: oops, wrong way round trailing / copies the contents , no trailing / copies the dir | 17:23 |
| plik | sorry | 17:23 |
| Andy80 | amenado: uhm... what :P ? | 17:23 |
| cory_ | ya i can go to the homepage then when i go somewhere else it shuts down | 17:23 |
| errpast | KaduBRA, reload grub? | 17:23 |
| N1NCHN41L5 | KaduBRA: i dealt with that error alllll day | 17:23 |
| amenado | KaduBRA-> missing stage15 files in /boot/grub and maybe device.map is not configured correctly | 17:23 |
| lordofthepigs | Kr0ntab, one last thing, when I change the /etc/cron.d/mycron file, do I need to run anything for cron to take the modifications into account? | 17:23 |
| wal | basically when I press a keyboard key my mice freezes until the keyboard is depressed | 17:23 |

| amenado | KaduBRA-> describe what you have, and maybe paste your /boot /boot/grub directory so we can tell you what maybe needed | 17:24 |
| Kr0ntab | lordofthepigs: you know... out of habbit I always just reloaded cron... but you shouldn't have to. "sudo /etc/init.d/cron restart" | 17:24 |
| su-hoens`rZ | exit | 17:24 |
| su-hoens`rZ | er | 17:25 |
| Andy80 | amenado: it's not a problem using a beta... the problem is that untill this morning I had Firefox 3 beta 5 (FIVE) not Beta 4 (FOUR)..... understand the problem? | 17:25 |
| Nubae | hi, to get my i386 to see all 8 gigs can I download a special kernel, or do I have to recompile? | 17:25 |

| KaduBRA | no no no... | 17:25 |
| IndyGunFreak | N1NCHN41L5: if all you modified is the last line, its unlikely that should cause a grub error, do you know what you modified? | 17:25 |

| su-hoens`rZ | Kr0ntab except i dunno when the next time apt-get is going to break my machine :D | 17:28 |
| ompaul | herghost, you will get a message from apt-get suggesting what to do - stick a sudo in front of it any it may just work | 17:28 |
| cory_ | firefox is the only 1 i got | 17:28 |
| _julian | I just tried to install sun6-java-sdk with adept, which failed because it awaited some input on terminal which I couldn't do in adept, so I had to kill adept | 17:28 |
| Twilt | But I don't have the actual CD. I burnt an ISO and I just want to print of a label to stick onto the CD to make it look better | 17:28 |

| cory_ | how do i do that | 17:29 |
| Kr0ntab | su-hoens`rZ: yeah I'm not sure under what conditions an update would ever alter your /etc/hosts file. I wasn't aware of one. | 17:29 |
| _julian | The following packages have unmet dependencies: | 17:29 |
| _julian | sun-java6-jdk: Depends: sun-java6-bin (= 6-06-0ubuntu1) but it is not going to be installed | 17:29 |
| _julian | what can I do? | 17:29 |
| bazhang | Twilt: look for glabel in the synaptic | 17:29 |
| imnotdeadyet | who here is running emerald theme manager? | 17:29 |

I changed from "vesa" to my card and now I'm in fullgraphics mode but its very slow. How can I activate the "restricted" driver I had in gutsy? | 17:33 |
| cory_ | it works if i run it through the terminal | 17:33 |
| imnotdeadyet | what kind of guide? | 17:33 |

| OllieA | Hi, just a minor problem, when I boot up Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy, it goes through Grub and the the monitor turns off during the time, I assume, is the loading screen. As I said, only minor, but would be nice if fixed :) | 17:45 |
| szx0 | bazhang, Bind9 + tftp ... ? | 17:45 |
| szx0 | amenado, so the computer must be running DHCP | 17:46 |
| mhtsos | how do i change the keys that switch language plz? | 17:46 |
| plik | szx0: some routers will let you, but if it's not obvious how, its quicker and easier to install and config your own dhcp server | 17:46 |
| bazhang | szx0: this is from windows or another linux | 17:46 |
| szx0 | bazhang, purely linux | 17:46 |
| amenado | szx0-> no, a server must be running those services so your netbooting client can acquire the needed info | 17:46 |
| szx0 | plik, ahh thats what I thought, was hoping my router would let me ;-( | 17:46 |
| sachael | what was the name of the program that shows some info about the windows? | 17:46 |
| szx0 | amenado, damn ok thanks | 17:46 |
| gapagos | astro76 i re-loginned, it still didnt change settings yet i verified they were saved in gconf-editor | 17:46 |

| dmsuperman | Well my best idea is to just log everything in the channel. Let's see how fast they grow :D | 17:47 |
| amenado | Rawk02-> is the roaming boxed checked? | 17:47 |
| dmsuperman | Then I can just flush them daily or something | 17:47 |

I installed "EnvyNG", it detects my card at say its "suppor | 17:48 |
| plik | szx0: depends what you want from tftp - maybe a temp solution will work, else keep your router but turn off dhcp on that and run just dhcp and tftp on a linux box | 17:48 |
| sachael | bazhang, don't understand what you mean. There is a terminal command which gives some info about a window, it is environment independent | 17:48 |
| dmsuperman | bazhang, it doesn't log ubuntu-offtopic | 17:48 |
| bazhang | szx0: its at the ubuntuforums link for !wubi you can /msg ubotu wubi for the link | 17:48 |
| Rawk02 | it is, but when i check that i cannot hit ok, just cancel | 17:48 |
| brad4 | use the advanced effects on preferences | 17:48 |

| dinho-br | hello. I've just installed Ubuntu 7.04, but my connection isn't working. I tried to manually configure ip, mask, gateway and dns, but it didn't work. What do I have to do? Thanks in advance | 17:49 |
| dinho-br | sorry... Ubuntu 8.04 | 17:49 |
| bazhang | !resetpanels | gapagos | 17:49 |
| ubotu | gapagos: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 17:49 |
| z0g | dinho-br, what kind of connection? | 17:49 |
| tockitj | does upgrade 7.10 -> 8.04 work well ? | 17:49 |

| MachinTrucChose | how can I make nautilus ask me to confirm whether I want to delete a file when DEL is pressed? It's kind of annoying if you press something accidentally and the file is gone | 17:49 |

| joonas_ | i just installed mysql | 17:50 |

| gapagos | bazhang i dont want to reset panels settings, the thing is they wont apply my custom settings | 17:50 |
| amenado | MachinTrucChose-> you just have to be careful thats all and not click willy nilly | 17:50 |
| astro76 | gapagos: not sure killall gnome-panel should do it, as should logging out.. never tried that setting | 17:50 |
| Kr0ntab | dinho-br: or wireless? | 17:50 |
| dinho-br | my connection is wired | 17:50 |
| mhtsos | how do i change the keys that switch language plz? | 17:50 |
| Rawk02 | amenado: must be set up as default because I did not change it...odd for a wired connection | 17:50 |

| amenado | Rawk02-> as you found out, some default settings are not helpful, so you have to tweak it to match your needs | 17:51 |
| z0g | so your router runs a DHCP dinho-br? your PC won't get an IP when querying? | 17:51 |
| Kr0ntab | dinho-br: ok... and do you know the network id? e.g. 192.168.1.0 ? | 17:51 |

| _alf_ | strange_loop: i don't think you can draw a conclusion about more or less hardware from that | 17:51 |
| Aranel | kio_sysinfo can be any program. compiz.real etc.. | 17:51 |
| dinho-br | when I try to ping the gateway, I get: "connect: network is unreachable" | 17:51 |

If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 17:52 |

| Auctionedllama | bazhang, how do I run the update program? | 18:19 |
| amenado | OllieA-> you have to manually edit the xorg.conf if not there..driver may not support the res you like though.. | 18:19 |
| Shoops | z0g: I can try, but I need to know what to do from there, as I'm on the same comp as my linux distro install.. can't have windows and nix up at the same time. | 18:19 |
| Shoops | z0g: any ideas on how to fix then? | 18:19 |

| OllieA | amenado: Will you still b on in 45mins? I have to go | 18:20 |
| lch_ | Encrypt3d: did you search google? if the same kernel or older version in other linux distros supports it you have good chances that ubuntu does too | 18:20 |

| Encrypt3d | i didn't install ubuntu yet..but i will if it support the lan | 18:21 |
| z0g | Marce_, didn't install your driver... | 18:21 |
| amenado | OllieA-> so? but if it doesnt appear on gui, use the brute force, command line vi editor | 18:21 |
| amenado | OllieA-> no guarantee am here, but others can assist you | 18:21 |
| wishie | herbaliser: yes. | 18:21 |
| Auctionedllama | bazhang, whats the command? | 18:21 |
| OllieA | amenado: Ok | 18:21 |
| bazhang | Encrypt3d: run the livecd and use that command and then come here and ask again | 18:21 |
| mindlord | _alf_ I'm not using compiz or anything like that. This computer uses a intel 830 chipset (crappy I know) | 18:21 |

| Shoops | bazhang: does recovery mode give you a GUI or just the console? | 18:23 |
| Kr0ntab | dinho-br: unfortunately I can't help ya further.... but if it isn't hardware issue.. the there's something up with the driver. Which is odd because its a faily common card. what can get ya into weirdness is the chipset/transceivers choice of the manufacturer. | 18:24 |

| pyrak | how do i do that | 18:24 |
| pyrak | ? | 18:24 |
| ruewan | i wonder why they hide the torrent download all the way to the bottom | 18:24 |
| wishie | herbaliser: does it come with a configure script ? | 18:24 |
| keycool1 | amenado: I don't see it on the supported list on the wpa supplicant page | 18:24 |
| bazhang | Auctionedllama: a simple Hardy would have sufficed ;] and uname -r ? | 18:24 |
| amenado | NightBird-> its faulting when it attempts to bring up your ethernet 8139 based card | 18:24 |
| pyrak | i plugged my lappy into a projector system, and after rebooting my screen is all zoomed | 18:25 |
| mindlord | gor1, that's a bit extreme, but I sympathize. I burned up 2 GPU's in my tower through poor heat management | 18:25 |
| Kr0ntab | dinho-br: so in this case... you may want to file a bug report if you can for sure use the card in another software environment. e.g. windows... ubuntu live cd... another distro. | 18:25 |
| gor1 | mindlord: and on a hardware point, check your BIOS temps, after say 30 mins of desktop use | 18:25 |
| enfefi | I need help with the time in Ubuntu 8.04. At boot time I got this error: 8254 Timer not connected to IO-ACPI and in Gnome the time is wrong. My machine is a Pavilion zx5369cl laptop | 18:25 |
| pyrak | and i can't adjust the resolution to be above 800x600 | 18:25 |
| dreamcoder | should i use 64bit or 32bit? | 18:25 |
| _alf_ | mindlord: i think it's built into xorg. i don't have anything like that running either, and yet my alt-tab rotates windows in 3d | 18:25 |
| gor1 | mindlord: nuthin is extreme if it allows u 365+ uptime :) | 18:25 |
| herbaliser | wishie no | 18:25 |
| amenado | keycool1-> then you proly have to hunt around what drivers supports your cisco aeronet.. | 18:25 |
| NightBird | amenado: okay, how do I set it to either try the 8139too driver, or(worst case), disable ethernet completely? | 18:25 |
| bazhang | dreamcoder: how much ram | 18:25 |
| Kr0ntab | dinho-br: but I would doublecheck that before hand. boot from a live cd and see... | 18:25 |
| fiXXXerMet | How reliable is a live update from 7.10 to 8.04? Is it best to format and start clean? | 18:25 |
| g0th_ | hmm, bitchx was removed from ubuntu 8.04? | 18:25 |
| dreamcoder | 1gb | 18:25 |
| dinho-br | Kr0ntab: ok, thanks. But it's very strange, because I could connect on this pc, which has the same card | 18:25 |
| ruewan | someone told me 32 | 18:25 |
| agnul | uhm... yay for me! just moving the themes from my home folder to usr/share/themes did the trick | 18:25 |
| bazhang | 32 bit dreamcoder | 18:25 |
| lch_ | dreamcoder: when you ask? 32 bits ;-) | 18:25 |
| _alf_ | g0th_: yeah, it has security issues | 18:25 |
| Auctionedllama | bazhang, it says 2.6.24-16-generic | 18:25 |
| plik | g0th_: irssi ftw :) | 18:25 |
| Kr0ntab | dinho-br: yeah then its likely a card issue... | 18:25 |
| Marce_ | z0g, yes it is... it appears to be running... i can only get working with nv driver, with nvidia one xorg crashes by that reason :/ | 18:25 |
| _alf_ | g0th_: yeah, irssi | 18:25 |
| Laser88 | OldSocks: it's somewhere here - ~/.mozilla/firefox | 18:25 |
| Auctionedllama | bazhang, thats the right kernel correcT? | 18:25 |
| bazhang | Auctionedllama: then you are final! ;] | 18:25 |
| mindlord | _alf_, I don't think upgrading from gutsy to hardy turned it on. | 18:26 |
| g0th_ | kk | 18:26 |
| dreamcoder | i thought 64bit had speed increases though? | 18:26 |
| Al-Khouli | guys, SOS, i am facing this damned error in the middle of upgrading to hardy: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libxml2.so.2: undefined symbol: gzopen64 | 18:26 |
| dinho-br | Kr0ntab: I'll try with another live-cd | 18:26 |
| z0g | Marce_, it sounds weird :/ | 18:26 |
| Auctionedllama | bazhang, yip, the day after I installed i had 300 megs of upgrades | 18:26 |
| z0g | tried installing the driver using synaptic? | 18:26 |
| J-Unit | fiXXXerMet, everything u sudo apt-got will remain other apps wont, thats all i can say but upgrading is better since u dont have to "restart ur life" | 18:26 |
| Kr0ntab | dinho-br: also... try rebooting without the nic plugged in... and retry | 18:26 |
| amenado | NightBird-> try to boot from the liveCD and see if it detects same chips, and see if you get same errors | 18:26 |
| bazhang | dreamcoder: only if you dislike youtube ;] | 18:26 |
| keycool1 | amenado: I've been looking, can't seem to find, not sure I know where is best to look | 18:26 |
| NightBird | amenado: I'm botting from the liveCD, and getting the same errors | 18:26 |
| Marce_ | z0g, nop, i'll do it | 18:26 |
| Kr0ntab | dinho-br: trying to see if anything on the switch/router is locking it up. | 18:26 |
| dreamcoder | i managed to get flash working in a 32bit browser on kubuntu 8.04 | 18:26 |
| z0g | :? | 18:26 |
| dinho-br | Kr0ntab: nic plugged in? | 18:26 |
| z0g | *:> | 18:26 |
| Marce_ | :D | 18:26 |
| amenado | keycool1-> which cisco model do you have? | 18:26 |
| dreamcoder | it would work the same on ubuntu am i right? | 18:26 |
| dinho-br | Kr0ntab: what's that? | 18:26 |
| Marce_ | brb | 18:26 |
| z0g | did the trick for me Marce_ | 18:26 |
| _alf_ | mindlord: tell me this, if you go into system, preference, apperance, visualization and then select the "Extra" option. does it ask you to restart or anything? | 18:27 |
| Kr0ntab | dinho-br: nic = network interface card... | 18:27 |
| bazhang | dreamcoder: I meant flash and 64 bit have a bit of a hassle getting going | 18:27 |
| amenado | NightBird-> cant do much then if your liveCD also detects same, how about older 7.10 livecd ? | 18:27 |
| Marce_ | zog, but i wanted to have propertary drivers working :( | 18:27 |
| dinho-br | Kr0ntab: as I said, I have a dual-boot with Windows, and it is working... :( | 18:27 |
| Juanfer | FIREFOX and SYNAPTIC Not Connecting.... why this happens? | 18:27 |
| dreamcoder | okie | 18:27 |
| NightBird | amenado: those work fine. is there no way to boot the livecd with that driver disabled? | 18:27 |
| amenado | keycool1-> which cisco model do you have? many aeronet versions and models | 18:27 |
| lch_ | dreamcoder: i use 64bits as base and have a 32 bit ubuntu in a chroot for the browser with plugins. butu using 32bits directly is easier :-) | 18:27 |
| Al-Khouli | how to solve this error: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libxml2.so.2: undefined symbol: gzopen64 | 18:27 |
| Al-Khouli | ?? | 18:27 |
| keycool1 | amenado: I bet....how can I check? | 18:27 |
| amenado | NightBird-> you have not installed 8.04 yet? | 18:28 |
| Kr0ntab | dinho-br: ahh okay... | 18:28 |
| g0th | hi | 18:28 |
| gor1 | mindlord: another point is install fluxbox, that bypasses a lot of the gnome desktop crud, simply sudo apt-get install fluxbox, at the GDM greeter, go to change session at bottom right, select fluuxbox, you right-click for the menu, most stuff in applications at top of list, just avoid using nautilus as a noob with fluxbox ;) If no fluxbox probs then ur prooblem maybe gnomey-related | 18:28 |
| amenado | keycool1-> labels on the device perhaps? | 18:28 |
| g0th | (I now have irssi) | 18:28 |
| Laser88 | juanfer: anything else connecting? | 18:28 |

| g0th | so another issue: when I compile my kernel with make-kpkg binary-arch, I get this message: | 18:28 |
| g0th | dpkg-deb: building package `linux-headers-2.6.24.3' in `../linux-headers-2.6.24.3_2.6.24.3-10.00.Custom_i386.deb'. | 18:28 |
| wishie | herbaliser: depending on the structure, try something like... make -C /usr/src/linux SUBDIRS=$PWD modules | 18:28 |
| g0th | dpkg-deb: control directory has bad permissions 2755 (must be >=0755 and <=0775) | 18:29 |
| dinho-br | Kr0ntab: ok, thanks for trying to help me :) | 18:29 |
| mindlord | _alf_ no, but I've used compiz on this computer before without lockups or anything, I just turned it all off for speed. Only 1ghz cpu | 18:29 |
| g0th | what directory do they mean? | 18:29 |
| Kr0ntab | dinho-br: no sweat. | 18:29 |
| amenado | NightBird-> it should not wipe out your /home if you have it in separate partitions..try to boot from older 7.10 livecd? | 18:29 |
| keycool1 | amenado: its internal, and it doesn't seem to say on the bottom of the laptop either | 18:29 |
| jytd | does hamachi work on ubuntu? Anybody tried this out? | 18:29 |
| _alf_ | mindlord: it'll make the gpu hot, upping the system temperature. i doubt it'll make the cpu hot | 18:29 |
| amenado | keycool1-> cisco is a well known brand perhaps if you can visit your vendors web site to dig info? | 18:30 |
| herghost | ompaul: thankyou, that link you found sorted my problem completely. thanks for helping | 18:30 |
| Juanfer | pointer DISSAPEARS when wake-up, but still working | 18:30 |
| _alf_ | mindlord: if its cpu overheating issues you can pretty much ignore everything i've told you | 18:30 |
| mindlord | gor1, I'll try that. It hasn't locked up in about 45 minutes now.. It might be dirty power since I moved it. | 18:30 |
| Juanfer | pointer DISSAPEARS when wake-up, but still working | 18:30 |
| Juanfer | FIREFOX and SYNAPTIC Not Connecting.... why this happens? | 18:30 |
| plik | g0th: hmm.. try find / -name "linux-headers-2.6.24.3_2.6.24.3-10.00.Custom_i386.deb" , and use the parent dir | 18:30 |
| gor1 | jytd: yeah i uses hamachi and ghamachi on 7.10, if that helps but only to test for a hour or two, i'd try google ghamachi ubuntu | 18:30 |
| soop | simple question ... how can i change the length of a gnome desktop panel? | 18:30 |
| Laser88 | how to answer juanfer? :-) | 18:30 |
| keycool1 | amenado: ok great, thanks for the help. also, should I assume I'm looking for a driver now, is that the issue? | 18:30 |

| jytd | gor1, Ok, and it's not in the repository, right? | 18:31 |
| Laser88 | Juanfer: does anything else connect? | 18:31 |
| lch_ | Juanfer: but the network is working otherwise? | 18:31 |
| amenado | keycool1-> if its not waking up,, yeah driver issue, can you paste the results of your iwconfig ? | 18:31 |

| bazhang | lsb_release -a xyzpaw | 18:33 |
| grzyb | xyzpaw, cat /etc/issue | 18:33 |
| amenado | dassouki-> why upgrade, you could have installed the 8.04 without affecting your old 7.10 | 18:33 |
| * mindlord seriously considers trying to reinstall from scratch | 18:33 | |
| lch_ | Al-Khouli: was your system up to date before the upgrade? | 18:33 |
| Laser88 | Juanfer: stay here, so that we can help u | 18:34 |
| xyzpaw | thanks guys bye | 18:34 |
| william__ | is it recomended to do the install over gutsy? | 18:34 |
| _alf_ | mindlord: have you tried sitting a console to see if you get a kernel panic? | 18:34 |
| dassouki | amenado, why would i do that? | 18:34 |
| mindlord | gor1 I moved the machine as a result of the lockups, trying to see if dirty power may have been the cause. | 18:34 |
| doug2266778822 | anyone burn dvds? | 18:34 |
| Al-Khouli | lch_, i used to get this error before upgrading | 18:34 |
| hacx | hello :-) doesn anybody know if it is safe to upgrade to Hardy Heron if i have Fluxbuntu7.10 ? | 18:34 |
| gor1 | jytd: not sure if in apt, in fact i dont think it was back then now u mention it | 18:34 |
| tobmalf | Without the right to defend yourself.. no.. there is few republicans in the world.. | 18:34 |
| bazhang | william__: this is linux; there is no recommended--> just 20 opinions ;] | 18:34 |
| amenado | dassouki-> so you dont affect the old one?yuo can install a new ubuntu on separate partitions | 18:34 |
| NightBird | amenado: I've apparently tossed my old dvd, I'm burning a new copy now, I'll let you know when I've got the 7.10 livecd up | 18:34 |
| Al-Khouli | lch_, but it's preventing me now from going on and i have unmet dependecies | 18:34 |
| william__ | lol | 18:35 |
| lch_ | Al-Khouli: you said you installed 32 bit packages in your 64 bits system... maybe revert those to 64 bit | 18:35 |
| amenado | NightBird-> okay good luck | 18:35 |
| BSG75 | in 8.04, does evolution directly syn with google calendar? read/write both. Or do I need to use some sort of sync app in between | 18:35 |
| kbreit | How can I tell 8.04 to detect my monitor? | 18:35 |
| soop | william, just leave your /home partition in place and go ahead i figure, worst case scenario, you reinstall your apps | 18:35 |
| SeaPhor | I have fresh installed my 8.04, how do i get it to use my separate /home partition? | 18:35 |
| g0th | plik: that is /usr/src/ which is 0755 ? hmm | 18:35 |
| mindlord | _alf_, no, but I've been working on a half dozen machines this morning, including my own... so everytime it happens it seems to be when I'm not looking. Except a few times when I was surfing the forums for lockups in hardy. | 18:35 |
| chazco | Hi... whats the best option for MS Office compatibility (university uses it for everything, even work submissions). OpenOffice and SoftMaker Office dont render documents as Word does... | 18:35 |
| soop | SeaPhor: did you mount that partition as /home? | 18:35 |
| Cpudan80 | SeaPhor: mount it as /home | 18:35 |
| amenado | SeaPhor-> all partitions have to be mounted first before it can be used | 18:35 |
| _alf_ | mindlord: when you walk away, press ctrl+alt+f1 so if its the kernel flipping out you'll get some output | 18:36 |
| mindlord | _alf_, will do. | 18:36 |
| lch_ | chazco: and? even word renders the same doc differently, depending on version and printer.. so what.. | 18:36 |
| Al-Khouli | lch_, i said that ? | 18:36 |
| gor1 | mindlord: "a watched pot never boils..." | 18:36 |

| CBECTEH | някой да разбира български | 18:36 |
| Al-Khouli | lch_, i am not the guy with the 64 bit problem | 18:36 |
| Flannel | herghost: you don't need to compile it. | 18:36 |
| soop | chazco: word doesn't render shit | 18:36 |

| NightBird | amenado: the driver is 8139too for the wired device. bcm43xx for wireless | 18:48 |
| Nitron | OldSocks: You can do it permanently by adding "blacklist pcspkr" to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | 18:48 |
| MedO42 | Fogel1497: I think you have to add it to /etc/fstab. | 18:48 |
| Fogel1497 | how do i do that. i jsut installed ubuntu and am unfamiliar with linux | 18:48 |
| bazhang | AlabamaHit: you might look into cloning it or sbackup; /msg ubotu backup has more links | 18:48 |
| BlackIrish | ok, can I start the terminal via file location? | 18:48 |

| pedro_jsl | does someone know how to disable compiz at boot time (maybe through kernel parameters)? i want to install Hardy, but I can't login into GNOME... it tries to log and then logs me out... and stay in such loop forever...

| rotw | hi | 18:48 |
| bazhang | Fogel1497: fstab-->from the link I gave you | 18:48 |

| unzzi | I just tried to start Hardy from CD I got console (BusyBox or something). What gives? It does that if I select 'install Ubuntu' or 'try without installing'. | 18:52 |

| BlackIrish | which file? I can try that too! | 18:52 |
| mark_ | you can probably see the bars if you move the mouse to the top of the screen, and the desktp will scroll | 18:52 |
| rotw | BlackIrish: then press Ctrl+Alt+F1, log in, install fluxbox with sudo apt-get install fluxbox, login at your normal loginscreen and choose "Fluxbox" as a session, then you should at least have a GUI | 18:52 |
| gnomefreak | unzzi: sounds like a bad file or bad burn | 18:52 |

| uwo | hi all. is there anything like automatix for hardy? | 18:53 |
| amenado | NightBird-> if that still fails you, try the alternate cd | 18:53 |
| MedO42 | bebraw: open a console and type "java". If it works then some kind of jre is working. | 18:53 |
| emorris | !ask | mark_ | 18:53 |
| ubotu | mark_: 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. :-) | 18:53 |
| NightBird | amenado: yes, but how do I do it for the cd? | 18:53 |
| bazhang | uwo sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 18:53 |
| noozz | why does my hdtv not receive any signal after installing nvidia drivers? | 18:54 |
| krasher | anyone can help me... i simply can't make this nvidia-glx-new work properly in my box... i simply can't select my optimal resolution! | 18:54 |
| bebraw | MedO42, k. that works. there's probably something wrong in my app | 18:54 |
| terrestre | uwo applications ---> add/remove? | 18:54 |

| amenado | NightBird-> you have an installed working linux right? not livecd.. | 18:54 |
| Seven_Six_Two | !ubotu kde4 | 18:54 |
| ubotu | KDE 4.0.3 is the latest major release of the K Desktop Environment. KDE 4.0.3 packages can be found at http://kubuntu.org/announcements/kde-4.0.3.php - More information can be found at http://www.kde.org/announcements/announce-4.0.3.php - Support in #kubuntu-kde4 | 18:54 |
| xSnOoPyx | bazhang: It just reads the package lists, it doesnt install anything. | 18:54 |
| NightBird | amenado: no, not right now | 18:54 |
| just_bob | _alf_ i have php-pear, i need php5-pear | 18:54 |
| polcany | hi all | 18:54 |
| rotw | xSnOoPyx: yes. that's the point. | 18:55 |
| just_bob | _alf_ thank you | 18:55 |
| amenado | NightBird-> may i suggest downloading the alternate cd 8.04 and try that | 18:55 |
| bazhang | xSnOoPyx: then it is working; now try sudo apt-get upgrade or sudo apt-get install packagename | 18:55 |
| gnomefreak | krasher: that seems to be a fairly common issue atleast on my 3 boxes i upgraded, i had to make a new X11.xorg file using nvidia-config i think it was | 18:55 |
| rotw | mark_: cp foo.fon ~/.fonts/foo.fon | 18:55 |
| MedO42 | bebraw: Also, there is a free (non-sun) jre installed by default I think. Maybe you want to try uninstalling that. | 18:55 |
| Musicalduck | hey, could someone help? I've installed ubuntustudio, but can only boot up into command line and no GUI loads | 18:55 |

| bebraw | MedO42, alright. thanks for the tips :) | 18:55 |
| rotw | Musicalduck: is there #ubuntustudio? | 18:55 |
| rotw | then ask there | 18:55 |
| xSnOoPyx | bazhang: but what about my uh sound, how can i fix it? | 18:55 |
| lotfi | ok | 18:56 |
| amenado | noozz-> can you please only repeat every 10 minutes or so, if someone knows , they will assist instead of repeating every two minutes | 18:56 |
| mark_ | rotw I put it there and ran rebooted, but it still does not show | 18:56 |
| _alf_ | just_bob: i think php-pear is fine for php5: apt-cache search php5 | grep pear | 18:56 |
| shigutso | where is the Shared Folders icon in Ubuntu 8.04? I can't share a folder because I don't have permissions to do that... | 18:56 |
| gnomefreak | Musicalduck: make sure the desktop package is intalled, but you might have better luck in #ubuntustudio or #ubuntu-studio (cant remember what one it is) | 18:56 |
| bastones | Hello. I am trying to install Ubuntu from the CD I received a few days ago, and it begins to load with the orange bar and it gets to just about the middle and freezes. I tried addong noapic from F6 but that didn't fix it either. Anyone got any solutions, as I really want to get away from Microsoft Windows. | 18:56 |
| bazhang | xSnOoPyx: not sure; you need to provide more info | 18:56 |
| Seven_Six_Two | Musicalduck, did you install the rt kernel? | 18:56 |
| rotw | mark_: /usr/share/fonts ? | 18:56 |
| NightBird | amenado: I'm downloading now... 3 hours remaining | 18:56 |
| bazhang | bastones: try the alternate cd | 18:56 |
| DB42 | no #ubuntu+1 ? :) what about 8.10 :) | 18:56 |
| keycool1 | amenado: would my card be the aironet 350 mini-pci wireless lan client adapter or the aironet 350 wireless lan client adapter? | 18:56 |
| polcany | oki | 18:56 |
| uwo | tnx all, was hoping for someting like automatix to still exits - not because of codecs, but skype, realplayer, google earth... all in one place | 18:57 |
| mark_ | rotw Yes, there too, I ran fc-cache and rebooted after that as well. worked with a ttf but not fon | 18:57 |
| xSnOoPyx | bazhang: Idk really whats wrong, i was on gutsy and i updated to hardy and now it just doesnt work. | 18:57 |
| MedO42 | Is the arch/x86-part of the kernel source tree used for both 32- and 64-bit? | 18:57 |
| bastones | bazhang: sorry, didn't understand you there. What alternate CD? | 18:57 |
| yao_ziyuan | continue my last question: | 18:57 |
| bazhang | xSnOoPyx: well with that amount of info not sure what to say | 18:57 |
| amenado | keycool1-> hard for me to tell, its not infront of me...read what your laptop vendor says about your model | 18:57 |
| Gokee2 | noozz, Whats your xorg log say? | 18:57 |
| yao_ziyuan | if i happen to run a virus, | 18:57 |
| just_bob | _alf_ now i just need the other 3... | 18:57 |
| _alf_ | just_bob: apt-cache showpkg php-pear <-- shows it depends on php5 | 18:57 |
| bazhang | !alternate | bastones | 18:57 |
| ubotu | bastones: The Alternate CD is a classical text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the alternate checkbox on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal - Torrent at http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.04/ubuntu-8.04-alternate-i386.iso.torrent | 18:57 |
| rotw | mark_: hum. try and google it, ya never know, someone might've had the same problem. if not, look for a converter | 18:57 |
| _alf_ | just_bob i dunno about the others. if they are pear scripts use the pear you just installed to get them | 18:57 |
| noozz | Gokee2: dont know what that is | 18:57 |
| yao_ziyuan | which spawns two processes that restore each other when i kill either one in ksysguard, | 18:58 |
| yao_ziyuan | and which adds startup items in ~/.kde/Autostart | 18:58 |
| mark_ | rotw, thank you. google taught me about the folders. I will look for a converter | 18:58 |
| bazhang | yao_ziyuan: get clamav or avast linux version if that really worries you | 18:58 |
| yao_ziyuan | does that mean my current normal user account is ruined? | 18:58 |
| Gokee2 | noob13, Hmm SO you see bootup right? Its just when x start (right before the login screen) it blanks? | 18:58 |
| xSnOoPyx | bazhang: i think it said something about boot/grub | 18:58 |
| xSnOoPyx | bazhang: some kind of folder like that i dont remember. that may have been the problem. | 18:58 |
| swiftfoxer | excuse me, but does anyone know how I can enable flash in swiftfox? or did I mess up the install and I have to reinstall it somehow? | 18:58 |
| Seveas | yao_ziyuan, no | 18:59 |
| noozz | exatcly | 18:59 |
| noozz | im running @ 1360x768 if that helps | 18:59 |
| bazhang | xSnOoPyx: sorry drawing a blank here | 18:59 |
| just_bob | _alf_ the others are php5-mcal php5-domxml php5-xslt | 18:59 |
| hansin | Does anyone thing there would be a problem if I did a minimal CLI install from the 8.04 beta CD, and apt-get updated from there? Or should I really download the offcial 8.04 release CD and go from there? I'd rather avoid wasting the bandwith and CD if I could, but if there is a problem installing from the 8.04 beta and upgrading I would. Agian, I am only looking for a minimal CLI install, so it is much more basic that the full install | 18:59 |
| yao_ziyuan | i think i should create a backup normal user account | 18:59 |
| xSnOoPyx | damnit, anyone else have problems with sound after installing? | 18:59 |
| xSnOoPyx | =( | 18:59 |
| yao_ziyuan | in case my current user account get ruined | 18:59 |
| Musicalduck | #ubuntustudio is seems to be pretty quiet. how am i meant to install the desktop package? someone recommend i try sudo apt-get install gnome, but i get an error message - gnome depends: gnome-desktop-environment (=1:2.20.2.2. but is not going to be installed | 18:59 |
| Gokee2 | noozz* | 18:59 |
| keycool1 | amenado: ok great thanks for the patience, I know I don't know my way around that well. It looks like its the mini PCI card. I have the link for the driver, but it only offers my windows 2000 and win xp options | 18:59 |
| yao_ziyuan | imagine this: | 19:00 |
| bazhang | hansin if you know the packages you want you can add them as you wish-->may want to add a gui though ;] | 19:00 |

| cygoku | Can anyone please tell me where is the script folder ?!?! | 19:00 |

| hansin | bazhang: Nah, don't need that. Well, actaully yes I do. But I install the minimal CLI and build up from there. Add xorg sever, SLiM, various lightweight window managers. More I am wondering if I really need to offcial release CD, or can I reuse my 8.04 beta CD instead and upgrade via apt-get or apptitude instead? I figure I can, just not sure if there some major change that apt-get or aptitude would miss. I am pretty sure not, but | 19:02 |

| Seveas | krasher, echo ndiswrapper | sudo tee -a /etc/modules | 19:03 |
| noozz | just before login screen - after boot up | 19:03 |
| tockitj | how to enable desktop effects from command line (since System/Prefernces has no such option) ? | 19:03 |
| bazhang | hansin: you might want to get the *final* minimal cd though | 19:03 |
| Seveas | tockitj, compiz --replace & | 19:03 |
| xSnOoPyx | |Bazhang you have any idea why it doesnt work | 19:03 |
| _alf_ | just_bob: i dunno. i'm a python user =). i don't see an answer... wait a few minutes and ask again | 19:03 |

| noozz | what do i do after that? | 19:05 |
| _alf_ | just_bob: also you might try asking in the php channel. | 19:05 |
| Seveas | FFEMTcJ, generate a key with puttygen, make it export the public key, put that in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys2 on the ubuntu machine and make putty use the private key to connect | 19:05 |
| gnomefreak | ghostlines: that is an unsupported kernel in Ubuntu | 19:05 |
| OllieA | amenado: You still here? | 19:05 |
| just_bob | _alf_ great idea! | 19:05 |
| FFEMTcJ | Seveas: ty | 19:05 |

| djlenoir | Hello. Can anyone assist me with this error: "GRUB loading, please wait... Error 22". To provide some background, 7.10 failed to upgrade to 8.04 so I used Partition Magic to delete every partition on all four of my HDD and then let 8.04 auto-setup on the first drive. Installed fine, then after the first reboot, I get this error. | 19:07 |
| dolphin_noel | urg is this one joke or what?! i move deleted files to the trash and it dont clean it dont move or nathing can you bealiver this?! | 19:07 |
| Seveas | [T]-Rex, your cd is possibly broken. Have you checked the md5sum of the iso and the burned cd? | 19:07 |
| gnomefreak | ghostlines: not in this channel maybe try #ubuntu-offtopic | 19:07 |
| dolphin_noel | where is the .trash?! | 19:07 |
| dolphin_noel | to i can accessfrom root | 19:07 |
| dolphin_noel | and trytodelete it | 19:07 |
| dolphin_noel | :x | 19:07 |
| Seveas | dolphin_noel, /home/yourusername/.Trash | 19:07 |
| [T]-Rex | seveas: how do i do the md5 check? | 19:08 |
| Seveas | !md5sum | [T]-Rex | 19:08 |
| ubotu | [T]-Rex: To verify the integrity of a download, use the md5sum - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HowToMD5SUM for more | 19:08 |

| gnomefreak | delfick: sudo apt-get install firefox-2 | 19:08 |
| hansin | bazhang: Okay, thanks. It might not hurt. I suppose a blank CD is about a $0.10 investment, and if I download via bittorent, well that shouldn't harm bandwith any. | 19:08 |
| Gokee2 | noozz, If you can see that you can login and loog at your xorg log with less /var/log/Xorg.0.log might tell you something like if your computer is giving your moniter a higher resalution then your moniter supports. I need to take off now, you can msg Gokee2_Office if you want I will be there in about 30 min. | 19:08 |
| Seveas | dolphin_noel, hah, didn't know that yet :) | 19:08 |

| bigtimer121 | won't allow me to click or select a program in add/remove | 19:20 |
| gnomefreak | Makdaam: esd is package iirc | 19:20 |
| gerardoj | yep in nautilus it works fine, but it just doesnt work on the 'open dialogs'' | 19:20 |
| Pelo | Makdaam, how di dyou install it ? | 19:20 |
| rotw | Pelo: would that work if i've fucked up my drivers? :D | 19:20 |
| bazhang | daemon3: the servers are likely a bit slow right now due to the recent release of hardy | 19:20 |
| gnomefreak | bigtimer121: did you add or change repos using synaptic? | 19:20 |
| cgentry72 | i have hardy and i when i plug in a usb device it will not load. any suggestions? | 19:20 |
| daemon3 | bazhang: Yes, I know. That's why I'm asking. | 19:20 |
| djlenoir | Pelo, thank you for the reply. I am too new to linux to know how to find it now, but during the install, i think listed my four hard drives as hda, hdb, hdc and hdd... it chose to install to hda. | 19:20 |
| bazhang | rotw language plese | 19:20 |
| z0g | where was the X config file again? Need to shred out the ATi stuff. | 19:20 |

| Pelo | bigtimer121, close everyting, open a terminal and type sudo apt-get update | 19:20 |
| rio | did the developers already chose a codename for 8.10? :) | 19:20 |
| [T]-Rex | what is the command to see which file it is? | 19:20 |
| gnomefreak | bigtimer121: what is exact error when you run sudo apt-get update | 19:20 |
| rotw | pardon mi french :/ | 19:20 |
| Exteris | rio, intrepid ibex | 19:20 |
| pixelmonkey | I'm observing horrible X.org performance in Hardy, using the nvidia-glx driver. This is a clear regression from prior versions, and already has some bug reports. Does anyone know what's causing this? | 19:20 |
| rio | Exteris: okay :) | 19:21 |
| Makdaam | apt-get install esound :P but it also installed esound-common, which magically got tons of dependencies and when I try to remove it I get "The following packages will be REMOVED: long list here" | 19:21 |
| Pelo | djlenoir, ok just tell me what hdd ubuntu is on and what partiton on that hdd, like fist hdd second partiotn or someting | 19:21 |
| bazhang | !ibex > rio | 19:21 |
| Exteris | pixelmonkey, same here, 90% cpu when playing a video | 19:21 |
| pixelmonkey | for example, if I try selecting multiple items in my Evolutoin e-mail list, each selection takes about 2 seconds and the CPU is chewed about 40% between evolution and x.org in top | 19:21 |
| gnomefreak | Makdaam: yes that is normal | 19:21 |
| Roshane | Pelo i'm afraid to answer the wrong thing | 19:21 |
| gerardoj | cvasilak: Unable to open file: these files could not opened: file://home/user/Folder/ftp://mysite.com | 19:21 |
| rio | bazhang: thank you :) | 19:21 |
| gnomefreak | Makdaam: esound is a major package | 19:21 |
| Makdaam | gnomefreak, but the packages were there before esound | 19:21 |
| pixelmonkey | Exteris, what the heck is going on? | 19:22 |
| Pelo | Roshane, you will only be asked about our keyboard and mouse I 'm told , the video card will get detected automaticaly | 19:22 |
| Roshane | Pelo use kernel framebuffer device interface? | 19:22 |
| Pelo | Roshane, no | 19:22 |
| gnomefreak | Makdaam: im sure they are not there now since it wants to install them | 19:22 |
| absn1 | wow why did I have sound last night and after a restart this morning I don't >.< | 19:22 |
| bigtimer121 | i just ran the sudo apt-get update and it worked, but still says in System/Admin/update manager that my index is still broken | 19:22 |
| Pelo | Roshane, or just leave the asnwer that is selected for you | 19:22 |
| Exteris | pixelmonkey, no ideo, but i'm playing a video, and i just had 90% cpu for xorg, i'm going to check some logs now | 19:22 |
| bob_ | How can I get my resolution not to be probed at boot? I'm setting up a computer, they want the resolution at 800x600, and I set it, then when I reboot, it goes back to 1024x768 | 19:22 |
| _alf_ | absn1: because your mixer saved state when it was muted? | 19:22 |
| Makdaam | gnomefreak: it tries to remove gnome-applets gnome-bluetooth | 19:22 |
| Makdaam | gnome-control-center gnome-games and other gui related stuff | 19:22 |
| gnomefreak | bigtimer121: sudo apt-get install -f | 19:22 |
| Byan | hey guys, how hard is it to disable compiz? | 19:22 |
| gnomefreak | Makdaam: yes that is normal | 19:22 |
| absn1 | _alf_: its not muted | 19:22 |
| bazhang | bigtimer121: please pastebin your sources.list | 19:22 |
| cgentry72 | i have hardy and i when i plug in a usb device it will not load. any suggestions? | 19:23 |
| _alf_ | !sound | 19:23 |
| ubotu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 19:23 |
| Makdaam | so I'll end up with clean X after uninstalling esound? | 19:23 |
| === po1ter is now known as polter | ||
| bigtimer121 | how? | 19:23 |
| gnomefreak | Makdaam: esound is a major package leave it and just change the what you use to oss or something else | 19:23 |
| Pelo | bigtimer121, look on the forum for the error msg , www.ubuntuforums.org | 19:23 |
| gnomefreak | Makdaam: most likely no X but i havent looked at the list of depends | 19:23 |
| bigtimer121 | it can't find package f | 19:23 |
| bob_ | Byan, System-> (Preferences or Admin) -> Appearance -> Visual Effects -> None or something like that | 19:23 |
| Makdaam | gnomefreak: ok... how do I force freshly installed packages to use OSS? | 19:23 |
| cvasilak | gerardoj, hm i tried myself in the open dialog and failed, you are correct it doesn't work that way. I guess this functionality is not supported by gnome yet. What I do regulaly is to sftp to a site through nautilus and open a file in text editor and works fine | 19:23 |
| Exteris | pixelmonkey, i do have a lot of setgrabkeysstate, perhaps that's because of my window manager | 19:23 |
| gnomefreak | bigtimer121: use the volume icon | 19:23 |
| Roshane | Pelo emulate 3 button mouse? i have one, say yes? | 19:23 |
| daemon3 | !sound | 19:23 |

| bazhang | bigtimer121: can you install packages? if so sudo apt-get install pastebinit the cat /etc/apt/sources.list | pastebinit | 19:24 |
| gnomefreak | Makdaam: volume icon | 19:24 |
| daemon3 | Just wanted to see what the ! does. | 19:24 |
| Piteco | I can't install compiz fusion 'couse the pack isn't working, can anyone help me? | 19:24 |
| gnomefreak | bigtimer121: sudo apt-get install -f | 19:24 |
| gerardoj | cvasilak:are you using 8.04? | 19:24 |
| Pelo | Roshane, never mind my last questtion | 19:24 |
| [T]-Rex | i have two files corrupt on my hardy heron cd, is there a way to download these two files, or is it just a case of re-burning the iso again? | 19:24 |
| cvasilak | gerardoj, yes | 19:24 |
| gnomefreak | bigtimer121: just that no package name nothing | 19:24 |
| Roshane | Pelo no, pc..lol | 19:24 |
| bigtimer121 | i did that | 19:24 |
| [T]-Rex | i used md5 to check it and i know the exact files | 19:24 |
| Pelo | [T]-Rex, just rebutn the iso | 19:24 |
| gnomefreak | bigtimer121: and? | 19:24 |
| bazhang | [T]-Rex: need a new iso | 19:24 |
| Makdaam | gnomefreak: my volume icon is alsa-only :P | 19:24 |
| bigtimer121 | i get E: couldn't find package f | 19:24 |
| djlenoir | Pelo, it must be the first hdd, first partition, because no partitions existed before. I just booted from the CD and ran GParted... it shows it as /dev/sda1 (ext3) with the swap on /dev/sda5 (linux-swap). | 19:24 |
| absn1 | its not working on also, says device being used by another app when i hit test | 19:24 |
| gerardoj | cvasilak: but thats wierd that they took it off, cause it was working on 7.10 | 19:24 |
| [T]-Rex | ok | 19:24 |
| bazhang | bigtimer121: with sudo | 19:24 |
| Roshane | Pelo restart now right? | 19:25 |
| bigtimer121 | correct | 19:25 |
| cgentry72 | i installed hardy two days before it was released, do i have to reinstall hardy now that it is out? | 19:25 |
| cvasilak | gerardoj, why don't you do it through nautilus, ftp to the site and open from there | 19:25 |
| gnomefreak | bigtimer121: sudo apt-get install -f | 19:25 |
| Daremonai | how can i upgrade ubuntu from 7.10 to 8.04 from the desktop iso? | 19:25 |
| johnking | Howdy | 19:25 |

| hou5ton | If my laptop says it has AMD Turion 64 mobile technology, can I stil use the Standard (x86 architecture) or would I need to download the 64bit AMD version? | 19:25 |
| gnomefreak | bigtimer121: no space in -f | 19:25 |
| bazhang | cgentry72: no just update/upgrade | 19:25 |
| gerardoj | cvasilak: perhaps I will have to do it that way, it just not so handy for me | 19:25 |
| nl2br | Which packages should i have to install in synaptic? i have a nvidia 8400 gs and i can't get glx work. thanks | 19:25 |
| LuitvD | hou5ton: you can chose | 19:25 |
| Piteco | install -f doesn't work too ): | 19:25 |
| sooty | hi, is 6.6 gig enough for / and should / be at the beginning or end? | 19:25 |
| LuitvD | choose even | 19:26 |
| gnomefreak | Piteco: it wont without sudo apt-get | 19:26 |
| cgentry72 | bazhang, i have but there is nothing to update, does that sound right? | 19:26 |
| hou5ton | LuitvD: thanks ... is there an advantage to one over the other? | 19:26 |
| cellofellow | hi there. I've a weird problem. I can't log in with GDM anymore. (Using Gutsy) I get very weird errors about GTK being run setuid and, well, let me see if I can pastebin. | 19:26 |
| pixelmonkey | Exteris, I just switched to the nv driver in /etc/X11/xorg.conf, and I'm getting better performance. I think there is some regression in the nvidia driver + X.org + possibly GNOME stuff like cairo. | 19:26 |
| daemon3 | 8 hours to complete the upgrade!!!!????!!!?? | 19:26 |
| Piteco | yes i now | 19:26 |
| gerardoj | cvasilak: thanks anyway | 19:26 |
| bazhang | cgentry72: what kernel vesion? uname -r will tell | 19:26 |
| bigtimer121 | k that worked, now my nvidia-glx will be removed | 19:26 |
| Piteco | but does not work | 19:26 |
| pixelmonkey | Exteris, I don't get 3D with the nv driver, but I can live without that for now. | 19:26 |
| LuitvD | hou5ton: as of yet I don't think there's an advantage of the 64-bit version... | 19:26 |
| daemon3 | 14 HOURS!!!!!!?????? | 19:26 |
| Roshane | Pelo while its starting, another prob is that i dont have my button on top of each window, like max, min and close | 19:26 |
| keycool1 | I have found the driver for my non working wireless card. how do I install the new driver? | 19:26 |
| RequinB4 | I have a patched kernel, can I still upgrade normally? | 19:26 |
| SeaPhor | can someone look at this fstab to see if this is what i do? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/64546/ | 19:26 |
| Rtrick | Has anyone gotten Netflix working ? | 19:26 |
| gnomefreak | bigtimer121: without seeing it i cant tell you exactly what is going to happen | 19:26 |
| cvasilak | gerardoj, maybe because they have restructured the IO layer in gnome with the introduction of gio and this feature was too late to implement but i agree with you its a handy feature for some people | 19:26 |
| cgentry72 | bazhang, 2.6.24-16-generic | 19:26 |
| Pelo | djlenoir, ok reboot the comp, when you get to the boot menu , select the correct menu option and type E to edit , find the root line and change it to root (hd0,0) , then type enter to accept and type b to boot , you'll hve to chagne it manaly in the /boot/grub/menu.lst file once you have booted, changes from the menu are not permanent | 19:26 |

| tkooda | have other people noticed the backspace key not working in xfce4-terminal in hardy? (immediately after cd install) | 19:27 |
| lethalamby | some one help me | 19:27 |

| johnking | I am having a hard time activating my wireless on my Dell Latitude D800 laptop. Can anybody please show me an URL to go? | 19:27 |
| bigtimer121 | can i remove it and then try and use the add/remove application | 19:27 |
| LuitvD | hou5ton: there's more hassle with java and flash and stuff, so if you don't want issues, the regular i386 would be the safe choice | 19:27 |
| Exteris | pixelmonkey, is it much faster? how did you measure performance? because i might switch back too then | 19:27 |
| lethalamby | I had to recreate my swap partition | 19:27 |
| gnomefreak | aldren: nvidia-glx-new should work | 19:27 |
| Pelo | Roshane, do you have the title bars ? | 19:27 |

| krbt | anyone having issues with brightness adjust on hp dv2000 series laptop? it was ok in gutsy and doesn't work anymore in hardy | 19:27 |

| gnomefreak | Piteco: than you dont have messd up packages | 19:27 |
| Roshane | Pelo, after restarting they are back | 19:28 |
| pixelmonkey | Exteris well, my measurements are informal right now, just based on using things. | 19:28 |
| Piteco | how can I fix it? | 19:28 |
| cgentry72 | bazhang, do you think you could help me figure out why i can't plug any usb device in and it show up? | 19:28 |

| Exteris | pixelmonkey, can you think of a good benchmark then? | 19:28 |
| bazhang | sooty: hehe bod that sounds okay but just dont install too much compiling stuff--beginning | 19:28 |
| gnomefreak | Piteco: fix what? | 19:28 |
| Pelo | Roshane, you ahve them back now ? great how is your resolution can you get ti to where you want it ? | 19:28 |
| Piteco | I'm new with ubuntu | 19:28 |
| pixelmonkey | Exteris but basically, with the nvidia driver, Evolution uses about 50% CPU during normal usage (e.g., selecting/reading e-mails) and with nv, it's back down to 0-5% where it should be. | 19:28 |
| Exteris | nl2br, i have the same card, the restricted drivers work fine | 19:28 |
| danbhfive | nl2br: use the restricted drivers manager | 19:28 |
| extern | when I try to run khexedit on Ubuntu 8.04, I get an error about setting up inter-process communications for KDE. It says that it could not read network connection list and asks me to check if "dcopserver" program is running | 19:28 |
| Pelo | Piteco, this is a busy channel you may be asked to repeat your problem, in one line if possibly , | 19:28 |
| sooty | bazhang, ok dude,.,. i can resize later if needed though yeah? | 19:28 |
| bazhang | cgentry72: usbkey or usb hdd | 19:28 |
| Exteris | i'll put on a comparison or something | 19:28 |
| RequinB4 | I have a patched kernel, can I still upgrade normally? | 19:28 |
| extern | however the program starts fine afterwards | 19:28 |
| bigtimer121 | Gnomefreak, should i remove the NVidida-glx and see if that works. or don't you suggest that | 19:28 |

| cgentry72 | bazhang, flash drive and hard dribe | 19:29 |
| bazhang | sooty best to give it the max now but sure | 19:29 |
| pixelmonkey | Exteris another benchmark people have been using on launchpad/bugzilla is the "Resources" tab in the gnome-system-monitor. That tab runs at like 80% cpu for me with nvidia. | 19:29 |
| cgentry72 | bazhang, drive sorry | 19:29 |
| sooty | bazhang, ok cheers dude speak in a bit | 19:29 |
| trait | does anybody know where kontact saves its adresses? | 19:29 |
| pixelmonkey | Exteris in any event, there's clearly something wrong with nvidia + x.org in hardy | 19:29 |
| gnomefreak | bigtimer121: what is the main issue i forget | 19:29 |
| bazhang | install compizconfig-settings-manager Piteco | 19:29 |
| Roshane | Pelo i have the right resolution now...you are a genuis.. | 19:29 |
| Pelo | Piteco, it's already installed, check in menu > systm> prefs< appearance, last tab, desktop effects that is compiz , you many need to install the config configuration thingy to get more out of it | 19:29 |
| Exteris | pixelmonkey, i'm going to check that now | 19:29 |

| Roshane | Pelo the next prob is getting and installing java runtime so i can watch things online and even have this chat | 19:31 |
| t3rm1n4l | hi | 19:31 |

| Roshane | Pelo its finished | 19:33 |
| gnomefreak | LuitvD: off hand not really mine has never given me issue as long as i used the right compiler for the package and have all the dev packages installed | 19:33 |
| bigtimer121 | Gnomefreak: E: nvidia-glx: subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 2 | 19:33 |
| RequinB4 | danbhfive - ok, so if i'm reading you correctly, i should wait for anohter patched kernel before installing hardy | 19:33 |
| bazhang | got to go; getting late here ;] | 19:33 |

| LuitvD | gnomefreak: I'm gonna try re-installing the binutils then... | 19:34 |

| belka | Hi, can someone please tell me where I can find system variables or something like this in my Ubuntu? In other words, how system knows that /home/user/Desktop is Desktop folder of user called "user"? | 19:35 |
| danbhfive | RequinB4: I really don't know. Actually, not that I think more, the kernels don't overwrite each other. Only for a point release does the kernel overwrite. But, if you install a kernel separately from whats installed by ubuntu, it probably won't get overwritten | 19:35 |
| mariocesar_bo | Hi, I follow all the steps to install a wireless conection using ndiswrapper, so ... I can't get it work. What other thing besides ndiswrapper can use to get able to use my wireless conection ? | 19:35 |
| Musicalduck | ill try that, cheers | 19:35 |

| Judeglass | under 7.1 ubuntu recognized automatically that i needed a restricted driver for my wireless card to function | 19:35 |
| LuitvD | gnomefreak: it looks like my Linker changed versions :P | 19:36 |
| cgentry72 | bazhang, fstab just has the hdd partitions | 19:36 |
| Judeglass | in hardy heron, it says that no restricted drivers were detected on my system | 19:36 |

| Pelo | belka, it's just your user name when you login | 19:36 |
| gnomefreak | LuitvD: ive been gone for 3 months so my memory of packaging errors is behind me | 19:36 |
| Pelo | cellofellow, summarize it here, it's a busy shannel we don'T have time to open links | 19:36 |
| Hungerhaken | Hi, where to send a Bugreport for ubuntu? | 19:36 |
| Judeglass | of course, my wireless isn't working out of the box like it did in 7.1 with those restricted drivers installed | 19:36 |
| LuitvD | gnomefreak: it's not a packaging error, it's just a stupid mistake on my side | 19:36 |
| gnomefreak | LuitvD: you can change version in update-alternatives theres also a gcc command to do it but cant remember it | 19:36 |
| bigtimer121 | gnomefreak: E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1) | 19:36 |
| gnomefreak | bigtimer121: what command? | 19:36 |
| bigtimer121 | install -f | 19:37 |
| gnomefreak | bigtimer121: the ubuntu-desktop one? | 19:37 |
| gnomefreak | ah | 19:37 |
| keycool1 | how do I install my wireless card linux driver that I just downloaded from the vendor website? | 19:37 |
| LuitvD | gnomefreak: I built binutils while trying to build binutils for ARM | 19:37 |
| Judeglass | has there been a big change in the wireless drivers included? | 19:37 |
| cellofellow | the errors when logging in I get are something to do with running GTK setuid and errors with displayconfig-restore | 19:37 |
| gnomefreak | bigtimer121: close everything except this chat client and a terminal | 19:37 |

OpenOffice has no font substitutions configured, so it's using something external, but I don't know what, or how to track down which font this might be. | 19:46 |

| Dusk_ | eaglestar83, ralink or something like that | 20:49 |
| sylvan | Pelo, yes, I understand that, but I don't actually know which partition it is, this is the information I'm trying to find. I can see the partition and browse it, so obviously ubuntu must know where it is, so I just need to find some way of figuring that out. | 20:49 |
| un2him | el_ruso: which partition? The main one? If so, you need to reboot with a live cd | 20:49 |

I did not like freespire, and am just goiong to let it sit there on my disk for a while. But after I installed it (or more correctly, after I moved too many files over from old partition and filled this one.) i ran out of disk space. I deleted my trash (had | 21:13 |

If I go into terminal and log in as another user (not graphically) it says I have 10 gigs left. Gparted also says that. Another problem (though it may be unrelated) is that when I press the log out button all the panels crash. With this bug I cannot even press the back button on my browser, for it wont store my previous web pages as file | 21:13 |

| Zelta | zvacet: No, his issue is not a space limitation one | 21:34 |
| matthias_ | TimMatrix: ok, than the driver is probably the wrong one, this might soubd funny to you but grab an copy of the windows driver from your computer companies homepage only and placer it on your dektop also ... | 21:34 |

| xubean | is that error I'm getting because of a server, if it is then, I can keep trying different servers! :) | 21:36 |

| Jordan_U | Some_Person, Try running firefox in safe mode and see if it still happens | 21:37 |
| GoodJob | Some_Person, it's caused by the application when it encounters an unindentified behaviour | 21:37 |
| QuadF | i did Assid | 21:37 |
| Some_Person | Jordan_U: will try | 21:37 |
| xubean | zelta: actually the weird thing is, ubuntu doesn't even show that I need an upgrade right now, i have to do a force upgrade "gksu update-manager -d" | 21:37 |

| SuperLag | LexLuthor: and no, you cannot install Ubuntu in an Windows XP partition | 21:39 |
| Sir_Fawnpug | ivan_, sudo bash | 21:39 |

| zvacet | xubean : that is good,because now you should see message in update manager new version available | 21:39 |

| QuadF | xserver info, xserver display config etc.. | 21:40 |
| Some_Person | Jordan_U: it is still leaking in safe mode | 21:40 |
| SuperLag | LexLuthor: and then install Ubuntu inside that VM | 21:40 |

| chris_probl | TimMatrix : oh, i thought you couldnt write to hard drive | 21:41 |
| Some_Person | GoodJob: this is just about decreasing memory usage, which shouldn't apply when it's actually leaking. It increases memory usage on every click. something is wrong | 21:41 |

| MrObvious | smilevil: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade should do it. But first things first I would change mirrors to something not default. | 21:52 |
| Jordan_U | Owner, I don't know, though there may be someone else who deos | 21:53 |
| chris_probl | Owner: thats because the kernel is stupid. Get into grub and boot an old kernel. I found .5-15-generic or so works | 21:53 |
| Jordan_U | *does | 21:53 |
| tomd123 | what MrObvious said, my bad | 21:53 |

| MrObvious | pisse: Ouch that sucks. | 21:55 |
| Jordan_U | MrObvious, You should generally not use "sh <somescript>" and instead simply do enter the path to the script ( ./scriptname if it's in the current directory ) so that the correct shell will be used as it may expect to be run in bash or even python but you are forcing it to be run in /bin/dash despite it's #! line | 21:55 |
| os2mac | then I don't have any ideas... | 21:55 |

When I got the wireless working, and know how it's done, then I will be confidence to format the hard drive (destroy Vista, ha ha ha) and install Ubuntu and then do the procedure as learnt from yourselves. | 22:09 |
| Flare183 | tomd123: that is correct | 22:09 |
| loosid | tomd123: unless you have Comcast :) | 22:09 |

| patzz | i'm lost | 22:24 |
| shane2peru | what windows are you booting with? | 22:24 |
| patzz | any help?? | 22:24 |
| shane2peru | XP, Vista? | 22:24 |
| === Nubble is now known as SlugO | ||
| MrObvious | VseSlav: No, this is an Ubuntu support channel. Go somewhere else if you want that kind of attention. But you are more than welcome to stick around and learn about Linux. | 22:24 |
| Steven1 | shane2peru: XP | 22:24 |
| flyback | I do like the interface | 22:24 |
| secleinteer | hi, does anyone know if it's possible to disable the popup box that shows up when i connect to a ubuntu desktop through vnc? | 22:24 |
| flyback | other than the bullshit of it not allowing me to override if I have a need to be with root access | 22:25 |
| josh04_ | testola: I haven't used a nvidia card before, I cna't help you i'm afraid | 22:25 |
| testola | josh04_: Then using xorg.conf.failsafe to restore... but then i get 800x resolution... | 22:25 |
| shane2peru | Steven1, ok, one second let me google what the grub line should be for that, wise choice, don't use vista, I have heard nothing but bad. lol | 22:25 |
| Steven1 | shane2peru: Yeah. Vista is a resource hog. | 22:25 |
| flyback | heh | 22:25 |
| testola | josh04_: thanx anyway.. anyone know of any tutorials on the new xorg.conf file | 22:25 |
| flyback | slackware is better than vista | 22:25 |
| Felix | hello | 22:25 |
| Steven1 | flyback: Haven't used anything other than Windows and Ubuntu so far. | 22:26 |
| alabamahit | I need to re-download Ubuntu....Is 8.04 Stable......Or should I stick with 7.10 | 22:26 |
| MrObvious | shane2peru: Lol. I had it 3 months because I wanted to learn how it works and after installing Hardy I am glad it isn't my primary OS anymore. | 22:26 |
| mysticdarkhack | hey all | 22:26 |
| anemptygun | three cheers for 8.04! | 22:26 |
| SlugO | Firefox is behaving strangely. Does anyone know why it only adds .com suffix to words that I type into location bar instead of the usual Google's "I'm feeling lucky" type of thing | 22:26 |
| oddalot | hip hip | 22:26 |
| MrObvious | SlugO: Because it's a beta browser? | 22:26 |
| anemptygun | hooray | 22:26 |
| oddalot | hip hip | 22:26 |
| josh04_ | testola: the xorg.conf file can be edited in the same way, it just uses autoconfiguration for most of it, so the file in /etc/X11 is a skeleton file | 22:26 |
| anemptygun | hooray | 22:26 |
| shane2peru | MrObvious, yeah, I have heard a lot of bad., worse yet they are going to cut XP, that will be cutting their own throat. | 22:26 |
| Shpook | Only reason I would like a native solution is because with ndiswrapper, I still had to bind the network to wlan0 every time I booted up. I would prefer it all to be automatic. | 22:26 |
| mysticdarkhack | anyone know a way to fix firefox 3 to play my web asx stream | 22:26 |
| * oddalot takes a double shot | 22:26 | |
| anemptygun | lol | 22:26 |
| oddalot | hip hip | 22:26 |
| mysticdarkhack | it keep using movie player | 22:26 |
| anemptygun | HOORAY | 22:27 |
| oddalot | w00t | 22:27 |
| VseSlav | MrObvious Plz advise me irc server, where I can meet girl) | 22:27 |
| secleinteer | hi, does anyone know if it's possible to disable the popup box that shows up when i connect to a ubuntu desktop through vnc? | 22:27 |
| MrObvious | Shpook: You can have ndiswrapper run on bootup. | 22:27 |
| Steven1 | SlugO: I have a problem in Ubuntu with Firefox where it wont let me save bookmarks and all my buttons are gone. So your problem aint much. | 22:27 |
| MrObvious | VseSlav: I don't know one sorry. | 22:27 |
| Felix | could someone help me ? , in gusty i was able to change screen resolution , select a monitor and configure my video card, but in hardy i can only change resolution , is there a graphical way like in 7.10 to select a monitor and video card for hardy ? | 22:27 |
| mysticdarkhack | to us mozilla-mplayer plugin | 22:27 |
| VseSlav | MrObvious :( | 22:27 |
| shane2peru | Steven1, ok, we need to mount your hda4 like this: sudo mkdir /mnt/ubuntu | 22:27 |
| Dave123_road | VseSlav, wrong server | 22:27 |
| VseSlav | Dave123_road Ok | 22:27 |
| Gun_Smoke | VseSlav: #debian | 22:27 |
| testola | josh04_: So if i remove the contents of xorg.conf it will try and reconfigure? | 22:27 |
| MrObvious | Shpook: I don't remember how but it's possible. | 22:27 |
| Steven1 | Felix: You probably don't have the restricted drivers set up anymore. Mine was the same way. | 22:27 |
| patzz | irc://irc.quakenet.org/ Channel is #CA_Priv | 22:28 |
| Shpook | MrObvious: That's how I had it before, and ndiswrapper would load but network-manager would never find the network. I had to use iwconfig to bind the network to the interface | 22:28 |
| shane2peru | Steven1, then: sudo mount /dev/hdb4 /mnt/ubuntu | 22:28 |
| MrObvious | Shpook: It's in /etc/modules IIRC and it's just like modprobe ndiswrapper on bootup automatically. | 22:28 |
| Shpook | MrObvious: It was pretty annoying. :-) | 22:28 |
| shane2peru | Steven1, are ya with me? | 22:28 |
| Steven1 | shane2peru: Unrecognized command. | 22:28 |
| FooAtari | hey all. I seem to have a strange problem. As od as this may sound, since upgrading to 8.04 I have been unable to login several times. | 22:28 |
| VseSlav | irc://irc.quakenet.org/ | 22:28 |
| MrObvious | Shpook: Hmm I never had that when I used ndiswrapper on Gutsy for a while. | 22:28 |
| xyzpaw | could anyone tell me what program i have to run to upgrade to 8.04? | 22:28 |
| FooAtari | I had to login as root, reset my password for my regular account (which is set to something very straighforward) and then I can login. but twice my machine has rebooted on its own and I have been unable to login with the password used previosuly. Anyone got any ideas what would cause thuis? | 22:28 |
| Felix | it says driver is enabled but not in use | 22:28 |

| shane2peru | Steven1, ohh, we are still in grub haha | 22:29 |
| Steven1 | disregard | 22:29 |
| shane2peru | Steven1, ok, type: quite | 22:29 |
| shane2peru | Steven1, no I mean : quit | 22:29 |
| MrObvious | FooAtari: I think it might be permissions in your home directory in one of the . files. | 22:29 |
| MrObvious | FooAtari: That's just a guess though. | 22:29 |
| Shpook | MrObvious: Well, I just installed Heron on a clean slate, so maybe I'll give it another go with ndiswrapper. I don't want to spend forever fighting with it. | 22:29 |
| Steven1 | shane2peru: Yeah just figured that out. Opened a new terminal and ran the command no replies. | 22:29 |
| tdjacr|away | Can someone review http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=768908 for me? | 22:29 |
| acoustyk | Gnome-do won't launch firefox or pidgin | 22:29 |
| xyzpaw | could anyone tell me what program i have to run to upgrade to 8.04? | 22:29 |
| acoustyk | not sure why not | 22:29 |
| Cr7 | rv identify maxcr7 | 22:29 |
| shane2peru | Steven1, ok, did you run the mount command too? | 22:29 |
| Felix | but my point is , how could I configure my monitor or videocard in gnome ? i was able in 7.10 but that option is gone in 8.04 | 22:29 |
| Steven1 | xyzpaw: sudo apt-get install distro-upgrade | 22:30 |
| loosid | xyzpaw: sudo aptitude dist-upgrade | 22:30 |
| Steven1 | shane2peru: Yes. | 22:30 |
| FooAtari | hmm, ok MrObvious ill see what I can see. I noticed that onece it was starting klibido that caused the reboot, wonder if there is a permissions issue there. I reinstalled not long ago so see if that helps | 22:30 |
| red22 | who was it helping me with mouse/xorg 15 mins ago pls? | 22:30 |
| nickrud | xyzpaw, better is sudo do-release-upgrade | 22:30 |
| jepler | Felix: System > Preferences > Screen Resolution ? | 22:30 |
| testola | Felix: what is your problem w the gfx? | 22:30 |
| xyzpaw | thnx' | 22:30 |
| acoustyk | is gnome-do working straight out of the repositories for everyone else? | 22:30 |
| shane2peru | Steven1, ok, now type this: sudo cp /boot/grub/menu.lst /boot/grub/menu.lst.bak | 22:31 |
| Steven1 | shane2peru: So now Windows will be in the boot load list? | 22:31 |
| MrObvious | FooAtari: I would just create a new user and then just move all your documents to the new user's home directory and set stuff up again. | 22:31 |
| shane2peru | Steven1, ahh, wait | 22:31 |
| MrObvious | FooAtari: Then you can delete the old one and use your old user/pass. | 22:31 |
| Steven1 | shane2peru: 'cp: cannot stat `/boot/grub/menu.lst': No such file or directory' | 22:31 |
| Felix | yup i can set resolution there but in 7.10 i was able to change resolution and configure my video card too, how do i configure video card in hardy ? | 22:31 |
| lastelement0 | hey all, i try to change the icons for AWN yet they always go to the default once i restart. where should i go to change this so they are permanent | 22:31 |

| red22 | no wonder ppl are afraid of xorg.conf... i changed mouse settings and i had to log in via text term and fix stuff just to get it back to how it was.. | 22:32 |
| shane2peru | Steven1, that should be: sudo cp /mnt/ubuntu/boot/grub/menu.lst /mnt/ubuntu/boot/grub/menu.lst.bak | 22:32 |
| Felix | of course it is possible to do that in console mode but is there a graphical way ? | 22:32 |
| TimMatrix | I am still here on TimMatrix, TimMatrix2 (also me) is offline due to booting up and installing Ubuntu. | 22:32 |

| MrObvious | pr4bh: I doubt anyone will know how to fix that. You just don't have a working CD drive? You could take the drive out and put it in a regular computer and use a laptop to IDE converter. | 22:33 |

| alabamahit | Can someone please tell me if 8.04 is stable and ready to be used by a (newbie) Or should i stay with 7.10. | 22:35 |
| MrObvious | alabamahit: I think I would give it a while. You really aren't gaining much honestly. | 22:35 |
| Steven1 | shane2peru: http://pastebin.com/d78bad134 | 22:35 |
| xyzpaw | can you play windows videogames on wine? | 22:35 |
| pr4bh | i was thinking if there was any way of modifying grub so that it gives the option 'run' the bootable vista files on the other partition | 22:35 |
| Steven1 | xyzpaw: Some. | 22:35 |
| nickrud | alabamahit, no reason not to upgrade that I've seen, but waiting a couple weeks (in case some really bad bug crops up) won't hurt | 22:35 |
| Jack_Sparrow | alabamahit, wait a week and watch for problems.. if this is your everyday setup | 22:35 |
| testola | restarting... | 22:35 |
| FooAtari | alabamahit, its a step up from 7.10, better hardware support and is LTS so will be supported until 2011 I think it is | 22:35 |
| xyzpaw | steven1: why not all? | 22:35 |
| MrObvious | alabamahit: I say that just because it's just we need a couple weeks to get things up and running better. | 22:36 |
| FooAtari | but nickrud has a point | 22:36 |
| SeaPhor | xyzpaw, i play everything ie tried but i use Cedega | 22:36 |
| alabamahit | Cool thanks Everyone :) | 22:36 |
| lee_ | ok how do i correct this? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ and why hasnt ubuntu corrected this age old issue? | 22:36 |
| Steven1 | xyzpaw: Capabilities of wine are limited. I haven't been able to get it to work with DirectX games. | 22:36 |
| Bidget | so is hardy out yet? if so how do I update to it? | 22:36 |
| Anza | Hi, I have one question. Since I upgraded to the latest Ubuntu version, in most of my mp3 files would appear at the end: (invalid encoding) and those that have that are wrote in other language or using accents, it's terrible to have to fix it manually on each one, how can I do to make this recognize them?????????? | 22:36 |
| Jack_Sparrow | alabamahit, support will inpove over the next week as well | 22:36 |
| shane2peru | Steven1, ok, great, now when you reboot, it will default to Linux, if you want Windows you will need to scroll down to the bottom. | 22:36 |
| andril | hello allagain | 22:36 |

| Jordan_U | pr4bh, If you can create a bootable iso of the Vista Install CD you could boot from that using GRUB ( or some *NIX bootloader at least, I did it before with knoppix a while back ) | 22:36 |
| Steven1 | xyzpaw: Check the wine site for a list of compatible stuff. | 22:36 |
| verve | anyone having nvidia problems with hardy? | 22:36 |
| loosid | Bigget: sudo aptitude dist-upgrade | 22:37 |
| shane2peru | Steven1, why do you have the development branch of hardy? | 22:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | lee_, please post a brief description of the problem and not just a link | 22:37 |
| EDM | verve I was, but fixed mine | 22:37 |
| _moro_bana_ | my kvpncon another fresh install shows its connected but the broswer does not connect to the internet. please help | 22:37 |
| Bidget | thanks loosid | 22:37 |
| xyzpaw | so cedega is better than wine? | 22:37 |
| nickrud | alabamahit, oh, if you haven't installed yet, just go straight to 8.04 | 22:37 |
| EDM | wine is better | 22:37 |
| lee_ | No I just get the natoriouse can't get http issues | 22:37 |
| MrObvious | Bidget: Change Gutsy to Hardy in /etc/apt/sources.list and do sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and it should work. | 22:37 |

| Gman99999 | Hey my firewall isnt working properly, Im using firestarter, its been saying that it can't start etc until I changed what device it was using from the ethernet to the wireless card Im using now in my laptop why doesn't it auto shift to the next device? | 22:37 |
| nickrud | alabamahit, but releases.ubuntu.com/7.04 will have the iso downloads (if they aren't still getting hammered) | 22:37 |

| EDM | I can't add them with the workspace switcher preferences | 22:38 |
| Jordan_U | loosid, running sudo aptitude dist-upgrade alone will NOT upgrade between releases | 22:38 |
| shane2peru | Steven1, you can close the file and reboot, if everything is up-to-date with your Ubuntu, then you have the official, just in the titles it will always read like that unless you change it. | 22:38 |
| Gman99999 | anyone know the firestarter firewall very well? | 22:38 |
| Bidget | so MrObvious I just change every line in that list file that says gutsy to hardy? | 22:38 |
| loosid | Jordan_U: Yeah, I failed to mention the sources change. MrObvious picked that up though, so thanks to him :D | 22:38 |
| pr4bh | Jordan_U: thanks mate, i can make iso out of the files, can u help me a little bit more? | 22:38 |
| nickrud | LainIwakura, somwhere in /etc/fonts there's a file that controls allowing bitmapped fonts (turned off by default). Not on ubuntu at the moment so I can't tell you the exact one | 22:38 |
| xyzpaw | is it true that you dont need any antispyware, antimalware or a firewall in linux? | 22:38 |
| Fogel1497 | i'm having trouble mounting an ntfs drive. the drive is /dev/sdd5 and when I type "sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdd5 /media/Network -o force" it tells me theres an input/output problem | 22:38 |

| Jordan_U | pr4bh, I can try :) | 22:39 |
| MrObvious | Bidget: Hardy not hardy. It is case sensitive. | 22:39 |
| Techdeck`` | what media player (for mp3, not videos) do you recommend guys? I want something nice looking | 22:39 |
| shane2peru | Steven1, ok, I'll be back in a bit, reboot, and you should be back too. :) | 22:39 |
| Steven1 | shane2peru: It should be. And I guess I'll restart so my resolution will catch up with me. Also I got a lot of Windows tweaking to do. | 22:39 |
| LainIwakura | nickrud: I used "sudo dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config" to enable bitmapped fonts. Shouldn't that work? Thanks. | 22:39 |
| Bidget | MrObvious, ok | 22:39 |
| alabamahit | nickrud: Thanks :) | 22:39 |
| esteth_ | How do i disable screen dimming after inactivity? | 22:39 |

| ubotu | Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). | 22:41 |
| Jack_Sparrow | EDM, np | 22:41 |

| Anza | Hi, I have one question. Since I upgraded to the latest Ubuntu version, in most of my mp3 files would appear at the end: (invalid encoding) and those that have that are wrote in other language or using accents, it's terrible to have to fix it manually on each one, how can I do to make this recognize them?????????? | 22:43 |
| Hawkeye-X | I'm sure this question has been asked already but here ya go: I am trying to upgrade from 7.10 to 8.04, and right now it's freezing at distribution upgrade - "setting new software channels" - calculating the changes (it has gone gray and has been like that for a while) | 22:43 |

| Hawkeye-X | how long has it been for u | 22:46 |

| rubikcube | hi, after upgrading to 8.04, the kernel doesn't recognize one of my hard disks (the one with the root partition on it) any more (a seagate ide disk). Booting with the old (2.6.22) kernel works fine. It's not recognized by the live CD either :-( Any idea? | 22:57 |
| MrObvious | kindofabuzz: Oh ok. I gotta go but if I'm not here you can catch me in #eocf too. | 22:58 |
| arbrandes | Has anyone noticed that the shutdown sequence takes much longer on Hardy? | 22:58 |

| FooAtari | i use antivir mkquist or did toy mean from within linux? | 23:06 |
| ferris_ | djlenoir, start the reinstallation process, and then manually edit the partitions. Delete them and restart your computer. It will break the partitions and then you are free to restart the process... but only if you have a single OS, or want to have a single os on the drive.... | 23:06 |

| krash3x | Does anyone know about the 32 bit lib compatibility on the nvidia driver on 8.04? | 23:20 |
| SeaPhor | raindog, icon shows on desktop? | 23:20 |
| djlenoir | ferris, I tried to delete all the existing partitions, and even created a new partition table (wipe everything) in the installer... however, when I reboot, the partition is not gone. I guess it is queueing up the changes but does not apply them? | 23:20 |
| bigtimer121 | some_person: same errors came up | 23:20 |
| ferris_ | Bidget, I transferred the sites for the sources.list... but that was from the alternative disc... you may not need to worry about it at all... my laptop was an internet upgrade.... so I am not sure why it kept a better list | 23:20 |
| bagelong | josh04: if you are on and can help me again I'll surely love you for ever. In a platonic way of course | 23:20 |
| Some_Person | bigtimer121: sudo apt-get --purge autoremove nvidia-glx | 23:20 |
| secleinteer | hi, does anyone know if it's possible to disable the popup box that shows up when i connect to a ubuntu desktop through vnc? | 23:21 |
| arbrandes | rubikcube, this bug was probably exposed because they chose to move all PATA stuff into the scsci driver. | 23:21 |
| qbert | unop: im on ubuntu :) | 23:21 |
| adaminla | just downloaded 8.04. How do I check integrity of same? | 23:21 |
| rubikcube | arbrandes: yes, the drive itself is visible in /dev/ as sdc, but no partitions are there, just as described there. What would be the correct package to set that bug to? | 23:21 |
| raindog | SeaPhor: right click the icon, does it show an option to mount/unmount? | 23:21 |
| djlenoir | ferris, I am using Live at the moment, is there a way I can prepare the hdds through Live? | 23:21 |
| CJS3141 | unop: why not gksudo? qbert wants to run it as root. | 23:21 |
| Bidget | ferris_, I see... well, if I have problems with it after I upgrade then I'll see about fixing them I guess. for now I'll just let it upgrade | 23:21 |
| kindofabuzz | i keep getting "failed to connect". so i hit "try again" and it will connect. sometimes i have to hit try again several times. anyone know what the problem could be? i assume it's the wireless | 23:21 |
| Wolf23 | bruenig: the channel is on invite? :( | 23:21 |
| amazen720 | CJS3141: give me a second, I'm burning another disk with magicISO after RAR the files. I have to go in closet to get some old disk, I usual use I Ipod to transfer files | 23:21 |
| SeaPhor | raindog, Unmount option | 23:21 |
| unop | qbert, CJS3141 never mind me, i didn't read the question right :) | 23:21 |
| krash3x | I didnt install the 32bit libs I was just wondering if I need them for anythign | 23:21 |
| rubikcube | arbrandes: or should I go over to #ubuntu-devel with that? | 23:21 |
| Owner | Hey, I just finished Installing Ubuntu Hardy Via Wubi Installer. | 23:21 |
| ferris_ | djlenoir, did you finish the writing before rebooting/ | 23:21 |
| bigtimer121 | some_person: same errors again | 23:22 |
| ferris_ | Bidget, it is a good idea to do that.... it may work fine for you | 23:22 |
| bigtimer121 | :( | 23:22 |
| raindog | SeaPhor: Hmm. I'm afraid I don't have an answer for you. Sorry. Hopefully, one of the more knowledgeable members in here can give you a solution. Good luck. | 23:22 |
| Some_Person | bigtimer121: ok, lets try reinstalling and uninstalling it | 23:22 |
| djlenoir | ferris, I could not finish the writing because my only option was to click Next and it told me I had not set up the partition to install Ubuntu to. | 23:22 |
| CygnusX1 | Greetings. Just installed 8.04 on a laptop with mobility x700. ATI restricted driver installed, yet, fglrxinfo still shows mesa. | 23:22 |
| Some_Person | bigtimer121: sudo apt-get --reinstall install nvidia glx | 23:22 |
| arbrandes | rubikcube, not sure about the package, but I'd bet it is a kernel problem. And if it IS really a kernel problem, it might take a while to get solved, especially if the Ubuntu guys have to wait for upstream. | 23:22 |
| Some_Person | bigtimer121: then sudo apt-get --purge autoremove nvidia-glx | 23:22 |
| SeaPhor | raindog, Thanks for trying, and sorry, i did this a month ago with 7.10 and had no probs | 23:23 |
| arbrandes | rubikcube, if I were you, I'd search the linux kernel mailing list. | 23:23 |
| Owner | Hey, I just finished Installing Ubuntu Hardy Via Wubi Installer, I loaded into it logged into my account and rebooted the computer, it rebooted and then i rebooted one last time, now when i start up Ubuntu it takes me into a "BusyBox" Command Line right before the login screen, now i cant login? What do I do? I need help! | 23:23 |
| towlie | is anyone else here really disappointed with hardy heron | 23:23 |
| qbert | unop: CJS3141 , thanks yall | 23:23 |
| noel__ | how can i get this lib (libdbus-glib-1.so.2) i need it for cairo-dock 1.5.5.2? | 23:23 |
| Dekkard | towlie, not yet | 23:23 |
| CJS3141 | qbert: no problem, cheers :) | 23:23 |
| Cew27 | hey can anyone help me here its not so much a problem as a query but when i mute my sound i can still hear it a little bit | 23:23 |
| raindog | SeaPhor: I may be in for the same issue when I update to 8.04 as well. | 23:23 |
| towlie | Dekkard, ive got a few problems that bug the crap out of me | 23:23 |
| secleinteer | hi, does anyone know if it's possible to disable the popup box that shows up when i connect to a ubuntu desktop through vnc? | 23:24 |
| Dekkard | my first clean ubuntu instal since feisty | 23:24 |
| krash3x | nope this was the first time I used ubuntu since 5.xx | 23:24 |
| towlie | Dekkard, problems specific to hardy | 23:24 |
| arbrandes | rubikcube, if the problem is already solved in the newer kernels, than it is a matter of getting the Ubuntu devs to include the patch. OR, you could do it yourself. | 23:24 |
| rubikcube | arbrandes: the LKML seems to have one entry at least on this, without an answer | 23:24 |
| Dekkard | like? | 23:24 |
| ferris_ | djlenoir, go ahead and create the partition, click the check box to format and then once it is finished writing the partitions restart the computer (hard reset) | 23:24 |
| SeaPhor | raindog, well i didnt update, did fresh install to try to fix the wireless issue i've had for nearly 5 months | 23:24 |
| Bidget | UH OH | 23:24 |
| ferris_ | you could also get a boot disk and kill the partitions as well | 23:24 |
| arbrandes | rubikcube, ugh, no answer? bad news | 23:24 |
| Bidget | I was updating to hardy and it failed :( | 23:24 |
| InfernoX222 | Hello all, I dont mean to bother anyone but i am having some major issues (major for a newb that is...) anyone have a few moments to help? | 23:25 |
| djlenoir | ferris, Ok I will do that then. | 23:25 |
| rubikcube | arbrandes: my personal interest in this is just as far as my gf in concerned (her PC), I don't have those issues here on my gentoo machine :-) | 23:25 |
| ChrisNZ411 | You still there spiderfire?? | 23:25 |
| krash3x | what kind of issues | 23:25 |
| Xbehave | i had a preexisting vista partition on my drive but grub hasnt picked it up, how do i manually add vista? | 23:25 |
| Scunizi | How do I find out which version of java I have installed? | 23:25 |
| Dekkard | towlie, whats buggin ya? | 23:25 |
| amazen720 | CJS3141: I found a old CD I burned using XP, to put LINKSYS drivers on it, and it mounted fine | 23:25 |
| ferris_ | Xbehave..... are you sure you still have it? | 23:25 |
| Bidget | I got a whole bunch of errors while updating to hardy, and they were all "failed to fetch http://(blahblahblah) connection failed" | 23:25 |
| CJS3141 | InfernoX222: Just ask your question, and wait patiently to see if someone can answer it :) | 23:26 |
| krash3x | do we need to install the 32 lib on the nvidia driver with 64 bit | 23:26 |
| Bidget | and if it didnt say connection failed, it said connection timed out | 23:26 |
| InfernoX222 | well i got a DLink DWA-643 that i cant get to work with madwifi or even turn on... I also cant seem to get into a non X server mode to update my nvidia drivers | 23:26 |
| Xbehave | yes i just mounted the partition | 23:26 |
| amazen720 | CJS3141: then you're right it's Vista | 23:26 |
| UnNaturalHigh | does anyone here know how I would install just hpijs on ubuntu server? | 23:26 |
| Dekkard | brb | 23:26 |
| Xbehave | full of windows goodness/badness | 23:26 |
| bigtimer121 | Some_Person: same errors again | 23:26 |
| Bidget | anyone...? | 23:26 |
| mng51971 | better to upgrade on a fresh clean install of ubuntu | 23:26 |
| Jordan_U | Bidget, Try the automatic "best server" widget | 23:26 |
| Bidget | ? | 23:26 |
| ferris_ | Xbehave..... you will need to edit the menu.lst file | 23:26 |
| mng51971 | then you get no errors | 23:26 |
| Justin125 | Can someone just tell me if the % drag bar partition option in 8.04 install will be fine for a vista dual boot? | 23:26 |
| Some_Person | bigtimer121: ok, try "sudo mkdir /usr/lib32" then "sudo apt-get --purge autoremove nvidia-glx" | 23:26 |
| ferris_ | but I am not sure how to do that | 23:26 |
| amazen720 | CJS3141: them Microsoft Bastards!!!!! | 23:26 |
| Jordan_U | Bidget, System -> Administration -> Software Sources -> Mirror -> Other -> Choose best | 23:27 |
| InfernoX222 | justin125 i am running that way it works fine for me | 23:27 |
| Bidget | k | 23:27 |
| Xbehave | i no haw to edit menu.lst but no idea what to add to grub for it | 23:27 |
| arbrandes | rubikcube, hehehe, I see. Well, my relatively uninformed opinion is that it is probably a kernel issue, related to the move to the SCSI subsystem for PATA drives. And if I were you, in this case I'd try to either use an older kernel, or try to recompile the current one turning off this PATA/SATA thing. | 23:27 |
| SeaPhor | raindog, hey, before i shutdown and installed 8.04 I copied my fstab to a USB flash drive, would it be safe to just copy and paste that one line into the new fstab? wouldn't use the same UUID? | 23:27 |
| Xbehave | !windows | 23:27 |
| ubotu | For discussion and help with Microsoft Windows, please visit ##windows. See http://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bug/1 http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm and /msg ubotu equivalents | 23:27 |
| Bidget | Jordan_U, I don't see a mirror tab in there anywhere | 23:27 |
| amazen720 | CJS3141: their sound be a fix for this soon, right? | 23:27 |
| Owner | Hey, I just finished Installing Ubuntu Hardy Via Wubi Installer, I loaded into it logged into my account and rebooted the computer, it rebooted and then i rebooted one last time, now when i start up Ubuntu it takes me into a "BusyBox" Command Line right before the login screen, now i cant login? What do I do? I need help! | 23:27 |
| acke_n | anyone done a ps3 upgrade to 8.04`? any issues? | 23:27 |
| Jordan_U | Bidget, Sorry, it's "Download from" | 23:27 |
| bigtimer121 | some_person: mkdir: cannot create directory `/usr/lib32': File exists | 23:27 |
| CJS3141 | amazen720: Interesting, yes maybe it's a vista issue. You may have to post/search the ubuntuforums.org to see if there is any info that will help you. | 23:27 |
| Bidget | Jordan_U, oh ok | 23:28 |
| noel__ | how can i get this lib (libdbus-glib-1.so.2) i need it for cairo-dock 1.5.5.2? | 23:28 |
| Bidget | Jordan_U, alright I got it, I'll give the update another try and we'll see what happens this time :) | 23:28 |
| fred101 | hello, does anyone here know how to get xubuntu 8.04 working on a via EPIA-SP board? It crashes on boot, the caps-lock light doesn't illuminate when I press it. I can boot to single user mode, but thats useless. | 23:28 |
| amazen720 | CJS3141: will do | 23:28 |
| ferris_ | Xbehave.... I think I can give you mine to take a look at | 23:28 |
| tseug | i've upgraded to Hardy, a fresh install. now how do i delete my old version (it's taking up space)? | 23:28 |
| raindog | SeaPhor: To tell you the truth, I'm unsure. At least you can use the old fstab as a reference and compare to the new one. Of course, make backup of the new fstab, but perhaps then you try to edit/add the line from the old copy. | 23:28 |
| devtrash | tseug, there should be no old install | 23:29 |
| unop | noel__, try installing the libdbus-glib-1-2 package. sudo aptitude install libdbus-glib-1-2 | 23:29 |
| macabro22 | I am trying to update my distribution and I got a message saying update manager found an unresolvable error and I should file a bug against it and attach a log file from /var/log/dist-upgrade. Can someone help me out filing the bug? | 23:29 |
| Xbehave | ferris_: if you have vista installed i could probably decifer it, could you send it over plz? pastebin? | 23:29 |
| tseug | devtrash, but i can switch between my old desktop and the new one | 23:29 |
| kane77 | I'm planning to get more RAM, where does it save stuff when I'm hibernating? will I need bigger swap? | 23:29 |
| ffm | tseug, is it on a separate partition? | 23:29 |
| ffm | tseug, delete it with gparted, but be careful. | 23:29 |
| tseug | ffm, i think so. i only want one | 23:29 |
| macabro22 | I am not sure whether it has already been posted | 23:29 |
| Some_Person | bigtimer121: ok, try "sudo cat /dev/null > /usr/lib32/libGL.so.1" then "sudo apt-get --purge autoremove nvidia-glx" | 23:29 |
| tseug | ffm how do i use gparted | 23:29 |
| Kovecses | !version | 23:30 |
| ubotu | To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type « lsb_release -a » in a !shell | 23:30 |
| ferris_ | Xbehave, I have Vista, http://pastebin.com/m2e4b542a | 23:30 |
| devtrash | !livecd | 23:30 |
| Justin125 | how can I delete my wubi install so I can fresh install a real one? | 23:30 |
| ubotu | The Ubuntu Desktop CD is a "LiveCD" which can be run without altering existing files on your harddrive. Especially useful for testing your hardware's compatibility, it also includes an install option. | 23:30 |
| acke_n | is this chat availible online somewhere? | 23:30 |
| ffm | tseug, "sudo aptitude install gparted; gksu gparted" in the terminal. | 23:30 |
| === acke_n is now known as acke | ||
| Jordan_U | tseug, The only thing you might have of your 'old system' would be cached packages and your previous kernels, to get rid of the cached packages run "sudo apt-get clean" | 23:30 |
| bigtimer121 | Some_Person: permission denied | 23:30 |

| Hawkeye-X | I'm sure this question has been asked already but here ya go: I am trying to upgrade from 7.10 to 8.04, and right now it's freezing at distribution upgrade - "setting new software channels" - calculating the changes (it has gone gray and has been like that for a while) - anyone know if this is a normal issue or unusual issue? | 23:30 |
| ffm | acke_n, It is publicly logged, yes. See the channel topic. | 23:30 |
| bigtimer121 | Some_Person: i am the admin also | 23:30 |
| InfernoX222 | If anyone knows how to vonfigures a DLink DWA-643 on 8.04 with madwifi (its an ExpressCard) or how to get into a non X Server mode to update graphic drivers please PM me | 23:30 |
| acke | ffm thanks | 23:31 |
| ffm | acke, why? | 23:31 |
| Kovecses | Hawkeye-X, i did the upgrade earlier today without issue | 23:31 |
| Jordan_U | Some_Person, If you are trying to create a blank file then "sudo touch ..." | 23:31 |
| Hawkeye-X | Kovecses: what did you do differently? | 23:31 |
| unop | noel__, ok, you probably need to reinstall it then, because thats the package that contains that file. sudo apt-get install --reinstall libdbus-glib-1-2 | 23:31 |
| bagelong | matthias: I saw you helping someone earlier with a wireless problem. Care to help me with my issue? | 23:31 |
| Kovecses | Hawkeye-X, my guess is nothing i just clicked update | 23:32 |
| acke | ffm its in interesting example of what happends on dist upgrades | 23:32 |
| Xbehave | thx ferris_.do you have 2 vista installs? i think i get wats going on, infact i sort of rember something like that from a previous install | 23:32 |
| matthias | bagelong: sure, shoot ... | 23:32 |
| acke | ffm im about doing one at my company aswell.. :D | 23:32 |

| shane2peru | Kasio, there ya go try Jordan_U's suggestion | 23:41 |

| Jordan_U | Kasio, My guess is that it is compiz causing the crash ( possibly any 3D application ) | 23:43 |
| shane2peru | Kasio, you probably will need to disable somethings you have starting up in gnome, perhaps they aren't working or setup correctly. | 23:43 |

| SonicStream | androver: Brother MFC-240C | 23:56 |
| tomtommy | Platyhelminth, did you do a fresh new install? | 23:56 |
| djlenoir | mkquist, no other OS installed, only hardy. other three hard drives do not even have a partition yet. | 23:56 |

| ubotu | Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras | 23:56 |
| mkquist | djlenoir: where did you install grub? | 23:56 |
| Platyhelminth | yes tomtommy | 23:56 |
| SonicStream | :o | 23:57 |
| armada | man, mplayer's "Stop XScreensaver" option is full of problems | 23:57 |
| tomtommy | Platyhelminth, which one did you install? alternative? | 23:57 |
| Abd | aphan9 I had a similar problem, but I compiled the 2.6.25 kernel, and got my wireless back working | 23:57 |
| SpookyET | shane2peru: upgrade froze on libpng, then a bunch of errors. It was pretty much gutsy. it was not customised | 23:57 |
| shane2peru | djlenoir, if there isn't anything on the other hdd, just unplug them and see if you can boot off the one. | 23:57 |
| armada | in gusty it would give that error | 23:57 |
| djlenoir | mkquist, hda1 (first SATA drive) | 23:57 |
| SpookyET | shane2peru: PITA | 23:57 |
| armada | and in hardy it makes sarting mplayer incredibly slow | 23:57 |
| fysa | you ruined it, SpookyET. how does it feel? | 23:57 |
| b4xt0r | I am having trouble getting 2 sound cards to work together well, Would it be easier to use one sound card and map the output of Ventrilo to Aux for example, Speakers for everything else, and mic inpu? | 23:57 |
| aphan9 | abd how do u compile it, i'm not that good with that stuff lol | 23:57 |
| Platyhelminth | tomtommy yes . I did an upgade with net but same error | 23:57 |
| tomtommy | Platyhelminth, install Hardy Alternative ISO, not the liveCD one. understood? | 23:57 |
| shane2peru | SpookyET, before doing an upgrade, you should, 1. backup, 2 have a new disk handy in case of failure | 23:58 |
| mkquist | djlenoir: id go w/spookyet suggestion, take them out of the equation till u get it working | 23:58 |
| blankhead | androver: no i uninstalled thru terminal with sudo apt-get remove awn-core-applets-bzr | 23:58 |
| blankhead | it uninstalled successfully but now when i try to install avant thru add/remove it says Cannot install 'avant-window-navigator' | 23:58 |
| blankhead | This application conflicts with other installed software. To install 'avant-window-navigator' the conflicting software must be removed first. | 23:58 |
| blankhead | Switch to the 'synaptic' package manager to resolve this conflict. | 23:58 |
| FloodBot2 | blankhead: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 23:58 |
| shane2peru | SpookyET, that upgrade doesn't sound good. | 23:58 |
| === avernos is now known as help | ||
| Platyhelminth | I did not try the liveCD tomtommy | 23:58 |
| === help is now known as averno | ||
| djlenoir | shane2peru, I will give that a try then. | 23:58 |
| tomtommy | Platyhelminth, listen carefully to what I am about to say :) You should try a fresh and toally new install using ALTERNATIVE install | 23:58 |
| SonicStream | -.- | 23:58 |
| crc32 | where is the cryptmount-setup script for cryptmount? | 23:58 |
| SpookyET | shane2peru: it's a crap distro. Upgrades should not fail | 23:58 |
| shane2peru | djlenoir, then go from there | 23:58 |
| tomtommy | Platyhelminth, have you tried that? | 23:58 |
| Abd | I did with absolutely no problems. This site gave me a good help --> http://howtoforge.com/kernel_compilation_ubuntu | 23:58 |
| Platyhelminth | tomtommy it is what i did | 23:58 |
| crc32 | or is there documentation for how to use cryptmount for ubuntu? | 23:58 |
| hayhay | x1250: Hi - Said you would help me later - Thanks for offer - I got my other box that I lost my video on (was booting to a black screen without video) back up and running - Had changed my "System/Administration/Hardware Drivers/Nvidia/Enabled" After reboot it was downhill from there - figured out how to go into safe - and did auto-repair of x-server. Wheww - What a stupid thing to do without backing up my files 1st.... | 23:59 |
| sunmao | if somebody use squirrelmail pls pm me!! | 23:59 |
| shane2peru | SpookyET, then go develop your own distro that doesn't fail on upgrades with 1,000s of users on 1,000s of different senarios. | 23:59 |
| tomtommy | Platyhelminth, did you install it on a new fresh empty partition? | 23:59 |
| === averno is now known as avernos | ||
| Abd | aphan9 I followed all the steps and nothing went wrong | 23:59 |
| Platyhelminth | YES | 23:59 |
| Platyhelminth | i saw you it | 23:59 |
| Platyhelminth | ... | 23:59 |
| tomtommy | Platyhelminth, try the livecd version now | 23:59 |
| tomtommy | Platyhelminth, does the livecd load? | 23:59 |
| androver | blankhead: weird, it usually will tell you which software conflicts with it. try what it says; go to synaptic, see if it shows a conflict there. | 23:59 |
| Jordan_U | ferris_, I think I may have found one, I saw a reference implying that this could be compiled for linux http://moppi.inside.org/eskimo/ | 23:59 |
| Platyhelminth | lol ok, i will download it then | 23:59 |
| tomtommy | Platyhelminth, lol | 23:59 |
| SpookyET | shane2peru: Arch Linux? That's what I'm running on my laptop. I had Ubuntu on my parents pc. unmodified gutsy. | 23:59 |
| bigtimer121 | i have just downloaded the compiz file and installed and restarted. I have selected the extra in the "visual settings", how do i customize things in compiz. i only have a apperance selection in preferences not an advanced preference | 23:59 |
