| Scunizi | rsista: ah.. sorry I don't know anything about sopcast.. however if you rephrase your question to be more specific you might find someone that knows the answer. | 00:00 |
| rsista | Is there a straightforward tutorial available somewhere | 00:00 |
| Scunizi | rsista: with dependancies.. you need to install what they say is missing. | 00:01 |

| Scunizi | chatuu: I ment to say it takes 384megs to install from the live cd.. as for how much ram to run the system. I'm not sure. | 00:04 |
| xyzpaw | can anyone tell me how to add a repository | 00:04 |
| Scunizi | chatuu: 1 gig of ram is more than enough though | 00:04 |
| soundray | chatuu: most of that will be used for buffers. Linux tries to use memory, rather than letting it idle. You have nothing to worry about. | 00:04 |

| Stormcr0w | DJAdmiral: I don't understand... | 00:06 |
| chatuu | the problem is, one is in one machine and the other is on another | 00:06 |
| soundray | chatuu: just ignore how much memory is in use. If you get slow system response, or processes cancelled due to lack of memory, then you can worry about memory usage. | 00:07 |
| gleyve | alteregoa: now I need to intall aMSN but it's not working | 00:07 |

| Stormcr0w | DJAdmiral: then install Ubuntu and install GRUb on the same disc as Ubuntu... | 00:07 |
| Fjss | where does ubuntu store the .app of a program when you install a package?? | 00:07 |
| [T]an1 | can anyone tell me the package name to apt-get install dhcpd3 | 00:08 |

| gleyve | alteregoa: easycam2 if for linux? better then aMSN? | 00:08 |
| alteregoa | gleyve: its to configure your cam | 00:08 |
| Stormcr0w | DJAdmiral: then go back to Vista, run BCDedit and amend the Vista bootloader, so that it also sees Ubuntu? | 00:08 |
| Simonft | gleyve: did you see my link? | 00:08 |
| [T]an1 | nevermind... found a cool tool in webmin to install it :-D | 00:08 |

| zChris | whatsfresh: i would recommend Xubuntu instead | 00:32 |
| macd | gleyve, your using a bunch of non-official ubuntu repos, automatix being one of them, good luck fixing it. | 00:32 |
| benpicco_ | whatsfresh, better try xubuntu | 00:32 |
| gleyve | macd: is it easy to fix it? | 00:32 |
| whatsfresh | zChris, benpicco: thanks | 00:32 |
| macd | gleyve, If I were you I'd remove all that 3rd party garbage repos from my /etc/apt/sources.list and ONLY use official ubuntu repos. | 00:32 |
| soundray | whatsfresh: older machines like that tend not to have enough memory. Xubuntu may be a better choice. | 00:32 |
| whatsfresh | ok thanks | 00:33 |
| benpicco_ | whatsfresh, if it has less or equal 256mb ram, use the alternative install cd | 00:33 |

| zelrikriando | openoffice conflicts with the gnome themes...I HATE that | 00:35 |
| Scunizi | SnakeArt: missed a lot.. are you trying to get your wacom working? if so which one.? | 00:35 |
| macd | SnakeArt, then use modinfo wacom before and after loading it. | 00:35 |

| Signil | does hardy have this feature where on installing u wont need to overwrite your home? | 00:37 |
| gleyve__ | macd: I think its working :) | 00:37 |
| tony55 | xyzpaw do a search in the symatic package installer | 00:37 |
| gord_ | whatsfresh: by the way, fluxbox will install easily and just neds to be used when u really need more speed/less memory useage, like photo-editing, you can use it as an occasional one-off using normal desktop for everyday jobs. note this for later in case machine is too slow | 00:37 |

| macd | KindOne, no problem | 00:38 |
| jc | xyzpaw: nope, add/remove works great | 00:38 |

| zelrikriando | What the difference between add/remove and synaptic? | 00:40 |

| TopRamen | hey guys, I'm running hardy and part way through my sessions, on both machines that I'm running it on, sound will just stop working. what's weird though is that no media players will actually progress in the timeline when playing a media file. They just sit there. I know this is a known bug per google searches. Are there any known fixes other than rebooting though? | 00:50 |
| The_Bridge | i used gnome,i've installed kopete,and it wont load by clicking it's icon,it only load if i use alt-F2,can anyone tell me why? | 00:50 |
| macd | gleyve, ok, one more try here, 'sudo apt-get install tk8.5-dev tcl8.5.dev' | 00:50 |

| Genotrius | Scunizi: It lets you pick the manufacturer and the model. The manufacturer is Apple, and the model for me should be either Apple or Macintosh. I've tried both, and neither of them work. I need a more in-depth solution. | 00:52 |
| soundray | jc: 'dpkg -l openoffice.org*' | 00:52 |

| thompa | WarMX: then you will have a problem with atheros | 00:55 |
| kevin__ | there is no "modes" line in xorg.conf and i assume this is why | 00:55 |
| gleyve | macd: tells me: tk8.5 is the newer version and also impossible to remove tk8.5.so(denied) | 00:55 |
| WarMX | thompa: atheros? | 00:55 |

| Tim1 | macd: ok | 00:55 |
| Genotrius | So, my favorite keyboard (the new Apple keyboard) works under Kubuntu, but not Ubuntu, so I assume the problem lies with GNOME. Can anyone help me? | 00:55 |
| WarMX | thompa: ah well how can i check? | 00:56 |
| RB2 | Is anyone else here using HomeUserBackup? | 00:56 |
| thompa | WarMX: i do lspic | 00:56 |
| TopRamen | Luckrider: lol not looking for Techno music, I'm trying to figure out why my sound doesn't work on ubuntu | 00:56 |
| soundray | kevin__: modern xorg installations don't need mode lines. Use System-Preferences-Screen Resolution to change resolutions. | 00:56 |
| xyzpaw | i keep trying to install I2P but it keeps saying "Failed: No Route To Host" can anyone help me out | 00:56 |
| mark2 | Rythmbox works fine for me as long as I don't try to use anything else that needs the sound card | 00:56 |

| macd | gleyve, man, I dont know what all todo now man, automatix has seriously fubared your package system. | 00:56 |
| Genotrius | So, my favorite keyboard (the new Apple keyboard) works under Kubuntu, but not Ubuntu, so I assume the problem lies with GNOME. I've tried to fix this in Preferences>Keyboard, but no luck. I've also tried to reconfiguring xorg, but that just screwed up my screen resolution again. | 00:57 |
| RB2 | The app says it's still "Preparing backup", but I can see it's writing the backup file. | 00:57 |
| thompa | WarMX: wifi card is the same i think, you will have to compile from scratch | 00:57 |
| eyyYo | Is there any software that monitors the activity on USB and Serial ports? It should log what is sent and recieved. | 00:57 |
| jc | soundray: apt-cache policy openoffice.org-core shows Installed none, candiddate 1:2.4.0-3ubuntu6 version table 1:2.4.0-3ubuntu6 0, 500 cdrom://Ubuntu 8.04 _Hardy Heron_ - Release amd64 (20080422.2) hardy/main Packages, 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com hardy/main Packages | 00:57 |
| WarMX | thompa: what a mess | 00:57 |
| mark2 | There are a lot of things that call for your sound card and will lock up whatever is using it already | 00:57 |
| xyzpaw | i keep trying to install I2P but it keeps saying "Failed: No Route To Host" can anyone help me out | 00:57 |
| Fezzler | Why would my Login screen be a different resolution than GNOME? What determines the Login screen resolution? | 00:57 |
| thompa | WarMX: once wifi works its good | 00:58 |
| benpicco_ | is there a reference for gconf entries? | 00:58 |
| gleyve | macd: ok man..I thank you for trying...so I should not use automatix? | 00:58 |
| macd | gleyve, is this a recent install? | 00:58 |
| WarMX | thompa: with gutsy it works perfectly | 00:58 |
| macd | gleyve, dont ever use automatix. | 00:58 |
| zelrikriando | xyzpaw: /etc/hosts issue? | 00:58 |
| Genotrius | So, my favorite keyboard (the newest Apple keyboard) works under Kubuntu, but not Ubuntu, so I assume the problem lies with GNOME. I've tried to fix this in Preferences>Keyboard, but no luck. I've also tried to reconfiguring xorg, but that just screwed up my screen resolution again. | 00:58 |
| thompa | WarMX: walkmans are broken in hardy | 00:58 |
| unop | Fezzler, the actual resolution as set by X/xorg | 00:58 |
| macd | !patience | Genotrius | 00:58 |
| ubottu | Genotrius: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 00:58 |
| zelrikriando | xyzpaw: make sure your hostnames are not messed up (like mine were after upgrade) | 00:58 |
| gleyve | macd: aMSN It worked before...but when I tried some stepds to fix the webcam with aMSN I got in trouble | 00:58 |
| Fezzler | unop: so I edit xorg.conf? | 00:58 |
| thompa | WarMX: im wondering why walkmans cant come up as mass storage anymore | 00:58 |
| Genotrius | macd: Sorry about that, I was kind of refining my posts. | 00:59 |
| xyzpaw | zelrikiando: what hostnames | 00:59 |
| kevin__ | well, i was using the keyboard resolution switch feature as a "hack" to make some games in wine run "full screen" without a panel at the top/bottom of the screen | 00:59 |
| gleyve | macd: some forums adviced me to use automatix :( | 00:59 |
| soundray | jc: I suggest you remove the CD-ROM and fix the problem using online repositories only. Go to System-Admin-Software Sources and disable the CD-ROM. Close the dialog and let it update the package lists. | 00:59 |
| WarMX | thompa: walkmans? | 00:59 |
| zylche | Anyone know how I'd go about mass converting a lot of poorly encoded .avi files to xvid? | 00:59 |
| macd | gleyve, is this a recent install? are you at all opposed to loosing your settings, but not programs, and documents? | 00:59 |
| jc | soundray: ok I'll give that a try | 00:59 |
| thompa | WarMX: the mp3 player, works in gutsy not heron | 00:59 |
| unop | Fezzler, yes or just reconfigure the xserver-xorg package. sudo dpkg-reconfigure -plow xserver-xorg | 00:59 |
| soundray | jc: once it's done that, run 'sudo apt-get -f install' twice in a terminal, and put the output of the second one on a pastebin | 00:59 |
| thompa | i cant even figure out what device walkman is | 00:59 |
| elkbuntu | gleyve, which thread? go back and inform them what their advice did. | 00:59 |
| WarMX | thompa: well so i'll never change to HH | 00:59 |
| soundray | !pastebin | jc | 00:59 |
| ubottu | jc: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 00:59 |
| * macd hates automatix | 01:00 | |
| xyzpaw | what are hostnames | 01:00 |
| WarMX | thompa: GG works perfectly | 01:00 |
| zelrikriando | xyzpaw: I am not good at this but...my /etc/hosts file was messed up by the hardy heron upgrade...you should check that | 01:00 |
| Fezzler | unop: I like that idea. What does that command do? | 01:00 |
| thompa | WarMX: its not a big deal, but it will not be supporteg | 01:00 |
| mark2 | Speaking of keyboards, I have an HP media center keyboard and some of the buttons don't work like the eject buttons and the internet buttons but the media control buttons like play pause stop etc and the volume controls work fine | 01:00 |
| macd | overwrites and forces packages, and b0rks the you know what out of aptitude, youd think they'd at least rename thier broken stuff. | 01:00 |
| gleyve | elkbuntu: I don't remeber what forum told me that | 01:00 |
| WarMX | thompa: no wifi, no mp3s... | 01:00 |
| thompa | WarMX: eventually | 01:00 |
| elkbuntu | gleyve, was it the official forums? | 01:00 |
| WarMX | thompa: i think i'll wait for 8.10 | 01:00 |
| mysterycool | Zelrikriando: when u say messed up, what do u mean? | 01:00 |
| xyzpaw | zelrikiando: how will i know if it's altered? I've never seen it before. | 01:00 |
| macd | elkbuntu, I wouldnt doubt it | 01:01 |
| elkbuntu | nor i | 01:01 |
| unop | Fezzler, well, essentially it is a graphical questionaire that you fill out which in turn populates xorg.conf | 01:01 |
| mysterycool | WarMX: I think you made a good decision cause Hardy is a bit messed up. | 01:01 |
| WarMX | thompa: yeah | 01:01 |
| macd | gleyve, I guess since tcl/tk is already essentialy hosed up, lets remove and reinstall them | 01:01 |
| gleyve | macd: I've my ubuntu instalation for 8 months...my docs are ok | 01:01 |
| WarMX | thompa: i was a lot depressed when i saw the graphics in HH | 01:02 |

| mysterycool | andi5: u mean under virtual running? | 01:02 |
| macd | gleyve, so type "sudo apt-get remove --purge tcl8.5 tk8.5 tcl8.5-dev tk8.5-dev" | 01:02 |
| andi5 | mysterycool: yes | 01:02 |
| WarMX | thompa: i'm a desktop editor | 01:02 |
| macd | gleyve, if you get any errors about package not installed, just remove it form that command and reissue it. | 01:02 |
| WarMX | thompa: work a lot on gnome-look | 01:02 |
| zelrikriando | mysterycool: hmm lets see : on my terminal I am prompted as zelrikriando@shipon for exemple...so in the /etc/hosts file I had to replace the line '127.0.1.1 mylaptop' by 127.0.1.1 shipon' | 01:02 |
| mysterycool | andi5: which virtual machine software do u use? | 01:02 |
| soundray | jc: how are you getting on? | 01:02 |

| threeseas | Hmmm.... seemed to have fixed the eric4 console/terminal application debugging ability (eric4 communication to the shell it was started from) by fixing the shutdown problem (fix of adding acpi=force noapic to startup)... go figure... guess the boot failure was interfering. | 01:06 |
| The_Bridge | is kopete can run in hardy heron? | 01:06 |
| jc | soundray: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9880/ | 01:06 |

| benpicco_ | someone to help me to get my SoftModem running? ;) | 01:08 |
| Tim1 | Is this correct ? "kjournaled is the journal driver for ext3. it is normal for it to write to the disk every 5 seconds." | 01:08 |
| xyzpaw | zelrikriando, i dont know i havent tried | 01:08 |
| hardff | now i''m regret that | 01:08 |
| The_Bridge | it just wont load by clicking on the icon | 01:08 |
| The_Bridge | it only word with alt-F2 | 01:08 |
| hardff | left my system all cludgy | 01:08 |
| zelrikriando | xyzpaw: are you using synaptics? | 01:08 |
| The_Bridge | it only work with alt-F2 | 01:08 |
| xyzpaw | I'm using add/remove | 01:08 |
| macd | gleyve, ok, now lets go delete some stuff from /usr/lib, so "cd /usr/lib && ls libtcl*" | 01:08 |
| The_Bridge | even if i manage to load it with alt-F2,it cant detect my online contacts | 01:09 |
| macd | gleyve, and then "ls libtk*" and paste those to a pastebin please | 01:09 |
| linuxgeekery | benpicco_: can't help you right now, but I would look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto/Modems | 01:09 |
| mysterycool | xyzpaw: I was never familiar with I2P ( i mean ive heard what it is ) but I do not from where you downloaded it or in what format it was, so could you please specify in what format you downloaded it? | 01:09 |
| threeseas | xyzpaw: there is also snaptic and update manager | 01:09 |
| susanna777 | i was wondering if someone could help me | 01:09 |
| zelrikriando | xyzpaw: try using synaptic instead and try to install other stuff to check | 01:09 |
| linuxgeekery | susanna777: sure; what do you need | 01:09 |
| xyzpaw | i tried already | 01:09 |
| xyzpaw | oh ill try to install something else | 01:09 |
| arvind_khadri | susanna777, ask | 01:10 |
| susanna777 | i am trying to umount a linux partition | 01:10 |
| mysterycool | threeseas & xyzpaw: ive just checked synaptic and it does not have i2p. | 01:10 |
| Scunizi | SnakeArt: add the line ( Option ForceDevice "ISDV4" )# Tablet PC Only to all the "InputDevice" lines dealing with wacom.. | 01:10 |
| susanna777 | but gparted tell me i have to do it manually | 01:10 |
| gord_ | xyzpaw: aha! the add/remove does very simple tasks only, theyre's a more fully featured software installing package under Administration>Synaptic Package Manager, oops, not in there it seems | 01:10 |
| macd | susanna777, 'sudo umount /mountpoint' | 01:10 |
| linuxgeekery | at the terminal, of course | 01:10 |
| susanna777 | okay just a minute i will try that | 01:10 |
| gleyve | macd: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9882/ | 01:10 |
| arvind_khadri | macd, too fast :) | 01:10 |
| susanna777 | what is the mountpoint? | 01:11 |
| SnakeArt | Scunizi: Ok. I'll try that. | 01:11 |
| Mimi | QUESTION: if I start a FAILSAFE gnome session, does that mean Compiz will be disabled? | 01:11 |
| linuxgeekery | Mimi: yes | 01:11 |
| Mimi | yay thanks :) | 01:11 |
| The_Bridge | linuxgeekery : it just wont load by clicking on the icon,it only loads by alt-F2 | 01:11 |
| Genotrius | So, my favorite keyboard (the newest Apple keyboard) works under Kubuntu, but not Ubuntu, so I assume the problem lies with GNOME. I've tried to fix this in Preferences>Keyboard, but no luck. I've also tried to reconfiguring xorg, but that just borked my screen resolution again. Can anyone help me out? | 01:11 |
| linuxgeekery | susanna777: it's the location where the partition is mounted | 01:11 |
| gord_ | xyzpaw: yes, i suggest looking for midnight commander, a handy simple filemanager that runs in a termminal, search/install that as a test using synaptic pakcage manager | 01:11 |
| soundray | jc: it's a strange problem... this conflict looks like a packaging bug, but if it was, the reports would be all over the place. So it's a weirdness in your particular system. | 01:11 |
| zelrikriando | xyzpaw: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/I2P this might help you | 01:11 |
| The_Bridge | linuxgeekery : even if i manage to load it then,it can't detect my online contacts | 01:12 |
| localgod12 | help i unistalled nvidia-glx and now all i get in an error meesage | 01:12 |
| andi6 | Genotrius: what do you mean by "does not work"? | 01:12 |
| xyzpaw | zelrikriando that only has help for much older versions of ubuntu | 01:12 |
| mark2 | Mimi, I had that problem myself and you can fix everything in FAILSAFE gnome eventually..... | 01:12 |
| daYZman | hi | 01:12 |
| soundray | jc: I'd try something a bit heroic, which is to force the core package and see what happens: | 01:12 |
| mysterycool | Genotrius: Which ubuntu version do u use? | 01:12 |
| susanna777 | um i think it is mounted in windows | 01:12 |
| arvind_khadri | daYZman, hi | 01:12 |
| linuxgeekery | The_Bridge: Could you go to the terminal and type "kopete"? And private message me with the output? | 01:12 |
| zelrikriando | xyzpaw: I guess that still applies.. | 01:12 |
| susanna777 | i was trying to mount it in windows | 01:12 |
| jc | soundray: ok I'll try that | 01:12 |
| alado2 | how on earth do i install this on ubuntu http://forms.helixcommunity.org/helix/builds/?category=realplay-current | 01:12 |
| soundray | jc: 'sudo dpkg -i --force-conflicts /var/cache/apt/archives/openoffice.org-core_1%3a2.4.0-3ubuntu6_amd64.deb' | 01:12 |
| linuxgeekery | susanna777: /media/windows? | 01:12 |
| daYZman | i'm trying to shrink my /home drive and expand /, can i unmount it in gparted while still logged in? | 01:13 |
| alado2 | im trying but cant get it to work | 01:13 |
| susanna777 | but i should have rezized the drive BEFORE mounting it but i didn't | 01:13 |
| susanna777 | okay i try that | 01:13 |
| mysterycool | alado2: what are you trying to install? | 01:13 |
| xyzpaw | yes i was following those directions | 01:13 |
| pawnrocket | dayzman use the livecd | 01:13 |
| gleyve | elkbuntu: my synapcti doesn't have easycam2..is it normal? anything I can do? | 01:13 |
| Morglet | My /etc/network/interfaces file has correct information (static into for a spot on my LAN), but apparently it's read only partially, as the IP address is set up correctly but the netmask isn't, and there's no routing set up to the gateway either. Any idea what's gone wrong? | 01:13 |
| alado2 | mysterycool: realplayer | 01:13 |
| linuxgeekery | daYZman: I wouldn't recommend that; use the gparted livcd | 01:13 |
| Zak | macd: i tried both solutions but no way, these software are base on the same algorithms(gzip,unzip,etc)! is there a stronger solution? | 01:13 |
| xyzpaw | i cant get past step 3 | 01:13 |
| Jamsori | I'm having a problem with my wg111v2 wireless adapter, it is detected and connects sucessfully to my router - but the internet dies after a few seconds. ndiswrapper didn't help, it doesn't get past DHCP. | 01:13 |
| mysterycool | alado2: Oh, been through that. | 01:13 |
| andi6 | daYZman: i suppose you will have to boot into a gparted live cd or anything else not mounting / or /home | 01:13 |
| gleyve | macd: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9882/ | 01:13 |
| macd | gleyve, ok, now 'sudo apt-get remove --purge amsn && sudo rm -rf /var/cache/apt/archives' | 01:13 |
| daYZman | ok | 01:13 |
| daYZman | thanks | 01:13 |
| xyzpaw | yes i was following those directions | 01:13 |
| alado2 | mysterycool: yes me too, with gutsy, but now i forgot how i did it | 01:13 |
| xyzpaw | i cant get past step 3 | 01:13 |
| nickellery | alado2: you'll want to download the tar file | 01:13 |
| The_Bridge | linuxgeekery : okay | 01:13 |
| susanna777 | i get this error: umount: /: device is busy | 01:13 |
| susanna777 | umount: /: device is busy | 01:13 |
| susanna777 | umount: media/windows: not found | 01:13 |
| zelrikriando | xyzpaw: did you success on installing other stuff? | 01:13 |
| mysterycool | alado2: Ok, I do not really remember, but I downloaded Real Player through the Real Player Website. | 01:14 |
| xyzpaw | yes JRE installed just fine | 01:14 |
| survivor_ | hi, i just set my display rotation to 90 degrees and then everything crashed...now everytime I login, I only have a wallpaper and a mouse cursor. anyone know how to escape this? | 01:14 |
| linuxgeekery | susanna777: could you give me the output of the command "mount" | 01:14 |
| gib1 | Can someone help me - I need to burn a cd, but I cant boot to windows or linux - im on a live cd. Can someone tell me how I can burn off an ISO if im booting off of a live disc? | 01:14 |
| linuxgeekery | susanna777: pastebin it or msg me | 01:14 |
| macd | Zak, not that I know of, other than using the command line versions (in other words read the documentation) | 01:14 |
| Genotrius | andi6: Well, when I change the model to Macintosh in the Keyboard preferences utility, most of key keys don't do anything, and those that do type the wrong symbols. When I change it to Apple, it acts as though the whole thing is a numpad with the number 1 on the J key. | 01:14 |
| duma_ | 안녕하세요 | 01:14 |
| alado2 | mysterycool: yes but i want the nightly, you can fast forward better with that one | 01:14 |
| andi6 | susanna777: did you put an incorrect space between the leading slash and the "m"? | 01:14 |
| mysterycool | alado: I think it was a .deb file or a .bin file which u just open it and you install, nothing to actually configure or make. | 01:14 |
| linuxgeekery | gib1: can the livecd boot to ram | 01:14 |
| daYZman | if i have 100gb, how much should / and /home each have? | 01:14 |

| susanna777 | flood how do i do that? | 01:15 |
| xyzpaw | lol | 01:15 |

| alado2 | nickellery: yes i downloaded the tar file, but then what, i cant seem to get the program running | 01:15 |
| Genotrius | mysterycool: Ubuntu 8.04. | 01:15 |
| mysterycool | alado2: download the .bin version. it is way easier to install =] | 01:15 |
| macd | gleyve, ok, now lets do a lil fixing, 'sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -f' | 01:15 |
| susanna777 | okay | 01:15 |
| susanna777 | sorry | 01:15 |
| xyzpaw | zelrikriando i was following those directions in the first place | 01:16 |

| nickellery | gibl: sorry, that's https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto | 01:16 |
| amenado | alado2-> a tar file is just an archive of files | 01:16 |
| alado2 | mysterycool: yes i tried, but i cant seem to get it to execute | 01:16 |
| zelrikriando | xyzpaw: ok let me try to see | 01:16 |
| xyzpaw | ok | 01:16 |

| Jamsori | Another question then - a friend of mine is using a wg111 (not v2) wireless adapter. It used to work fine in Hardy- but now network-manager can't find his router. Any ideas? | 01:16 |
| Genotrius | mysterycool: No, it wasn't making any Chocobo noises with Gusty, but it was working. :P | 01:16 |
| mysterycool | alado2: Hmm, did u give it permission to execute? I mean, did u make it exectable? | 01:16 |
| soundray | macd: could you have a quick look at jc's problem, please: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9877/ | 01:16 |

| IndyGunFreak | SeaPhor: what took so long? | 01:17 |
| macd | soundray, I think he needs to rm -rf /var/cache/apt/archives/* | 01:17 |
| alado2 | andi6: yes | 01:17 |

| gord_ | xyzpaw: zelrikriando: i'm thinking its a .tgz installer not in APT, so needs to run the .tgz from the I2P project website, am i up to speed? | 01:17 |
| gleyve | macd: E: missing repository directory /var/cache/apt/archives/partial | 01:17 |

| SeaPhor | IndyGunFreak, too many ppl that didnt know proper procedure and me not knowing how and bunch of clutter | 01:18 |

| alado2 | amenado: i keep saying i know to you and your tar files, i dont know why i cant get the bin file to execute, different issue | 01:20 |

| mysterycool | hunj: Hello =] | 01:35 |
| clem | andi5: lol | 01:35 |
| andi5 | gnychis: you are welcome! | 01:35 |
| macd | Genotrius, you do know thats no longer the recommended method to reconfigure xorg. | 01:35 |
| ferfactor | i want to play a video in open office presentation.... my video is .avi i don't know if i have to convert it to another extension | 01:35 |
| vincenzofehring | 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Neomagic Corporation NM2200 [MagicGraph 256AV] (rev 20) | 01:35 |
| mgmz | arvind_khadri: intel 85x | 01:36 |
| Morglet | If I run /etc/init.d/networking stop, then start, my Ethernet interface gets set up properly, but no default routing is set up to the gateway. After a reboot in contrast, the interface is set up with the wrong netmask entirely, it's not obeying the interfaces file. Any suggestions? | 01:36 |
| calc | SeaPhor: heh, ok | 01:36 |
| mysterycool | vincenzofehring: Erm, huh? :s | 01:36 |
| arvind_khadri | mgmz, ok will get back to you | 01:36 |
| macd | ferfactor, I dont think you'll be able to convert and avi into a openoffice slideshow. | 01:36 |
| survivor_ | if i can properly see the login gui, but after that my display settings crash everything (display rotation); can that be an issue with xorg.conf? does anyone know where display rotation is stored? (xrandr something?) | 01:36 |
| mgmz | k | 01:36 |
| vincenzofehring | Yeah, i don't get it either! | 01:36 |
| localgod12 | jdong: you around? | 01:36 |
| calc | SeaPhor: leaving in about a week for prague for the next 3 weeks :) | 01:36 |
| tony55 | Fjss,did you check the preferences settings in the mixer | 01:36 |
| puppy-user-06som | andi5: I just installed it, and did cpufreq-set -g ondemand, but no effect yet | 01:36 |
| IndyGunFreak | vincenzofehring: now that is one iv'e never heard of, have no clue how to help you on that, sorry | 01:36 |
| puppy-user-06som | I'll try to reboot | 01:36 |
| macd | Morglet, paste your /etc/network/interfaces to pastebin please. | 01:36 |
| mysterycool | vincenzofehring: At System -> Preferences -> Screen Resolution change the resolution =] | 01:36 |
| puppy-user-06som | any better way to reboot other than sudo reboot ? | 01:36 |
| Genotrius | macd: No, I had no idea that was no longer recommended. What's the recommended way now? | 01:37 |
| andi5 | puppy-user-06som: do you check dmesg regularly? | 01:37 |
| vincenzofehring | the Screen resolution program doesn't go any higher that 800 x 600 | 01:37 |
| IndyGunFreak | mysterycool: i think if it were that simple, he'd have figured it out. | 01:37 |
| macd | Genotrius, -phigh | 01:37 |
| ferfactor | mmm i don't undertand yo mcD | 01:37 |
| mysterycool | IndyGunFreak: Lol, sorry :p =p | 01:37 |
| mysterycool | :p | 01:37 |
| Genotrius | macd: What's that do? | 01:37 |
| macd | Genotrius, "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg" | 01:37 |
| vincenzofehring | but i know that the video card supports a higher resolution from when it was running windows XP | 01:38 |
| macd | Genotrius, how about trying "man dpkg-reconfigure" and finding out yourself ;) | 01:38 |
| Xsss4hell | hello? | 01:38 |
| macd | vincenzofehring, linux isnt windows is the frist thing to remember ;) | 01:38 |
| SeaPhor | calc, sweet! any chance you have 2 tickets? lol (hey anytime you see me on, i'm on #SeaPhor if you ever need to talk off-topic) | 01:38 |
| mysterycool | Xsss4hell: Yes? | 01:38 |
| ne0 | isnt there a comd to refrsh applications list aswells | 01:38 |
| ferfactor | macd: to play a video in open office... i have to converte the video into a open iffice format??? | 01:38 |
| Fjss | tony55: let me give that a try | 01:38 |
| vincenzofehring | i know that... but shouldn't it still have the same capability with the video card? | 01:38 |
| sdtr443w | I'm having some odd rendering problems with a Radeon 1950XT on gutsy. For example, torcs will stop displaying itself unless I am hitting keys or clicking within its active region. | 01:38 |
| wil | hey ive been having a problem, im using 8.04, periodically the shutdown menu will appear randomly. somtimes clicking cancel will make it go away, sometimes it will just keep reappearing. has anyone heard of this problem? i tried googleing and have found nothing about it. | 01:38 |
| macd | ferfactor, I dont have any clue how todo that, I dont even know if oenoffice plays video | 01:38 |
| Fjss | tony55: how do I get to the mixer? | 01:39 |
| andi5 | macd: right,... on linux every pixel is as least 4 times as much worth as on windows | 01:39 |
| ferfactor | macd: ok, thansk for you attention | 01:39 |
| macd | andi5, ^5 | 01:39 |
| Xsss4hell | mysterycool I dont know howto add a bluetooth keyboard | 01:39 |
| arvind_khadri | mgmz, do you want drivers for it | 01:39 |
| mysterycool | :p lol | 01:39 |
| Xsss4hell | it wants a password | 01:39 |
| ferfactor | Someone knows haw play a video in open office slide show? | 01:39 |
| mysterycool | Xsss4hell: Ok | 01:39 |
| mgmz | arvind_khadri: i think it just needs to be configured properly | 01:39 |
| puppy-user-06som | andi5: dmesg confirms that switching to ondemand failed (even after reboot), so I tried powersave and it worked | 01:39 |
| sdtr443w | If I try to run flightgear, it'll eventually take me into a plane on a runway, but all the triangles are all these random colors. | 01:39 |
| andi5 | as long as it does not want a cookie ;-) ... | 01:39 |
| macd | Xsss4hell, thats the pairing password, you should read your kydb manual to get it. | 01:40 |
| tony55 | Fjss,right click on the volume control on panel | 01:40 |
| arvind_khadri | mgmz, what is the issue right now | 01:40 |
| IndyGunFreak | vincenzofehring: well if you had a video card that was "normal".. and not so obscure, it probably would work fine... but there's likely not linux drivers for that device | 01:40 |
| sdtr443w | I'm trying to figure out if there's a common problem relating to these symptoms. | 01:40 |
| Xsss4hell | mysterycool cant I enter any password? | 01:40 |
| mgmz | arvind_khadri: it cant do any 3D stuff | 01:40 |
| eboyjr | I want to install some cool Gnome programs to Ubuntu 8.04 that are similar to cheese or pidgin... It reminds me of a mac. ( Not that I like macs... just how cool and organized the programs are ) | 01:40 |
| arvind_khadri | mgmz, did you install the drivers | 01:40 |
| wil | hey ive been having a problem, im using 8.04, periodically the shutdown menu will appear randomly. somtimes clicking cancel will make it go away, sometimes it will just keep reappearing. has anyone heard of this problem? i tried googleing and have found nothing about it. | 01:40 |
| vincenzofehring | IndyGunFreak: so there is no way to set up a higher resolution? | 01:40 |
| ne0 | hmm | 01:40 |
| mysterycool | Xsss4hell: Most probably what macd said, though i'd give a go for your root password =] | 01:40 |
| andi5 | puppy-user-06som: what does it complain about? if the detected system would not allow scaling of the cpu, you would not see all those funny scaling files in /sys at all, iirc | 01:40 |
| mgmz | arvind_khadri: ..? it says that there is a driver installed for it | 01:40 |
| macd | mysterycool, sly dog ;) | 01:41 |
| IndyGunFreak | vincenzofehring: i didn't say there was no way, but it could be problematic.. | 01:41 |
| mysterycool | :p | 01:41 |

| alexman | that show some pref | 01:44 |
| IndyGunFreak | macd: it was video... | 01:44 |
| IndyGunFreak | very very unusual. | 01:44 |
| shaiguitar | anyone know how i find the source of a package i installed via apt-get ? (so i can use the .h files in some other place) | 01:44 |

| alexman | but my compiz isnt running | 01:45 |
| mysterycool | xyzpaw: Depends. If it is just a library then most likely u wont see it in the Applications menu. You can type though the name of it in the terminal and if you get a response then it means that the library was successfully installed. If they are normal applications though such as Limewire or Skype, then you will find them at your Applications menu. =] | 01:45 |

| susanna777 | arvind_khadri, there is an exclamation point next to it, what do you mean you can't see the windows partition? | 01:47 |
| tony55 | susanna777, is sda5 a primary partition or an extended partition | 01:47 |

| xyzpaw | y-town thanks but how do i find them once i click on the link? | 01:48 |
| Xsss4hell | and bluetooth has a range up to 10m at least | 01:48 |
| susanna777 | tony55 it's part of a logical partition | 01:48 |
| andi5 | shaiguitar: so, if you want to link against sqlite3, just install libsqlite3-dev | 01:48 |
| arvind_khadri | susanna777, look at the output of mount there is only root mounted.... | 01:48 |
| crimsun | frederic: you can manually edit /etc/apt/sources.list and update | 01:48 |
| Y-Town | xyzpaw: you running ubuntu or kubuntu? | 01:48 |
| xyzpaw | zubuntu | 01:48 |
| xyzpaw | xubuntu | 01:49 |
| susanna777 | arvind_khadri, what do you mean by that? | 01:49 |
| tony55 | susanna777, logical partiton is a ectended partition thats why it won't work you can only resize a primary partiton | 01:49 |
| wil | so im having this problem in hardy where the shutdown menu appears randomly? click cancel makes it go away sometimes, other times it wont go away until i restart? has anyone had this problem? | 01:49 |
| arvind_khadri | mgmz, hmm do you have ccsm installed | 01:49 |
| andi5 | shaiguitar: i cannot imagine what really needs the sources of sqlite3... well, and otherwise: apt-get source libsqlite3, just as i wrote at the beginning | 01:49 |
| frederic | crimsun, yep. but where (what website) gives them to me ? | 01:49 |

| Y-Town | xyzpaw: im not sure what xubuntu has. Just get amarok... :o) | 01:49 |
| arvind_khadri | susanna777, are all the other partitions you have mounted or do you have only one partition | 01:50 |
| macd | vincenzofehring, does "lsmod | grep nm2200" return anythiung? | 01:50 |
| andi5 | finally... is there anything more terrible than focus-follows-mouse? ;-) | 01:50 |
| xyzpaw | y-town yes but how do i find it once i click on the link? | 01:50 |

| crimsun | frederic: did you `sudo apt-get update' first? | 01:51 |
| richard | andi5: why do you say it's so bad? (focus-f-mouse) | 01:51 |
| mgmz | arvind_khadri: ccsm? | 01:52 |
| arvind_khadri | susanna777, a normal output of mount is like this http://paste.ubuntu.com/9889/ | 01:52 |
| * macd cant believe crimsun even asked that, you know they didnt ;) | 01:52 | |

| arvind_khadri | susanna777, have you right now logged in as a normal user | 02:00 |
| tanath | Dysk, check if it's a 'zombie process'? | 02:01 |
| macd | vincenzofehring, did you delete it ? hit alt+f2 to run gedit, then "gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" | 02:01 |

| frederic | tamath well I tried to check but in this website there is only 3 package (packages.bz2, packages.gz and releases). is this correct ? | 02:01 |

| vincenzofehring | since the refresh item is not in the xorg.conf file, what do i do? | 02:04 |
| akh3n4t0n | susanna777, you can inspect /etc/mtab [or type "mount" in a terminal] to view the mounted partitions and their mount points; "sudo mount -a" will mount all your filesystems declared in /etc/fstab | 02:04 |
| macd | vincenzofehring, under Section Monitor", add it exactly like this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9893/ | 02:04 |

| CrashPad | tanath: Package name? | 02:04 |
| vincenzofehring | sorry | 02:04 |
| tanath | arvind_khadri, ubuntu doesn't have more funding than ubuntu? | 02:04 |
| KindOne | ubuntu is .deb based | 02:04 |
| susanna777 | arvind_khadri, i did, i don't think it did anything | 02:04 |
| tanath | arvind_khadri, o.O | 02:04 |
| andi5 | frederic: vlc is actually in multiverse... but why did not you use fr.archive.ubuntu.com? | 02:05 |
| tanath | CrashPad, not sure, but it has a search feature | 02:05 |
| eeh_rik | with these 'tailored for winXP/vista' labels everywhere.... they really should be atleast honest and say: minimumcost ripped down hardware inside which wont work easily under real operating systems | 02:05 |
| eeh_rik | :P | 02:05 |
| arvind_khadri | tanath, ubuntu has more funding that debain | 02:05 |
| vincenzofehring | Now that I just changed that file, i have to reboot in order for it to take effect? | 02:05 |
| tanath | arvind_khadri, i was saying that ubuntu _has_ funding | 02:05 |
| susanna777 | arvind_khadri, according to gparted, dev/sda2 (windows partiton) doesn't have anything on it and there's an exclamation point next to it | 02:05 |

| andi5 | Luckrider: sudo apt-get install xchat | 02:07 |
| Luckrider | that is it | 02:07 |
| Luckrider | ok | 02:07 |
| Luckrider | that is what I thouhg, just wasn't sure | 02:07 |
| tanath | Luckrider, you just use the "xchat" package as opposed to "xchat-gnome" | 02:07 |
| vincenzofehring | macd: my resolutions have all gone away except for 800x600 | 02:07 |
| susanna777 | arvind_khadri, but when i first made the linux partition a month ago, it worked just fine with the win partition | 02:07 |
| Luckrider | thoughti it might install the gnome version | 02:07 |
| eeh_rik | u might be interestd in apt-cache search | 02:08 |
| arvind_khadri | susanna777, you should have told us before....gparted doesnt support NTFS as of now | 02:08 |
| Luckrider | thanks | 02:08 |
| macd | Mimi, yeah that launches a X display on screen 3, but I dont know anything about wine. | 02:08 |
| Mimi | macd: Im trying trying to find out if display I want to use, since I dont know what display does. i know gnome runs in alt+ctrl+f7 or is it f8? is that what its refering to? | 02:08 |
| macd | vincenzofehring, what was it at? | 02:08 |
| susanna777 | arvind_khadri, but it resized it before, a month ago, | 02:08 |
| wil | tanath: i will happen even if i am away from my keyboard | 02:08 |
| andi5 | frederic: better use system > administration > software sources | 02:08 |
| vincenzofehring | 800x600 | 02:08 |
| macd | Mimi, no those are ttys not virtual X screens | 02:08 |
| frederic | andi5, yep. but then ? | 02:08 |
| vincenzofehring | it used to go 1024x768 | 02:08 |
| arvind_khadri | susanna777, using gparted | 02:08 |
| sadiel | Hello guys. I want to change my software repositories back to the original settings, but the server does not show on synaptic options. What command can I use on the terminal to get it done? Also, would "pe.archive.ubuntu/hardy" be the appropiate path? | 02:08 |
| macd | vincenzofehring, and you wanted it higher? | 02:08 |
| tanath | wil, have anything weird in your startup/session? any scripts or anything that might do it? | 02:08 |
| andi5 | frederic: well, include multiverse | 02:08 |
| vincenzofehring | yeah, i wanted it to be able to go back to 1024x768 | 02:09 |
| macd | vincenzofehring, what do you mean back to? | 02:09 |
| eeh_rik | edit /etc/apt/sources.list, sadiel | 02:09 |
| prince_jammys | vincenzofehring: did you read the links i posted? | 02:09 |
| frederic | are you kidding me guys ? multiverse is ALREADY in my sources for synaptics. there is no VLC on it. | 02:09 |
| andi5 | sadiel: do not forget .com | 02:09 |
| arvind_khadri | susanna777, did you use gparted to resize | 02:09 |
| wil | tanath: nothing out of the ordianry i can see | 02:09 |
| tanath | sadiel, System > Admin > software sources | 02:09 |
| susanna777 | arvind_khadri, yes i did | 02:09 |
| arvind_khadri | susanna777, ok just let me check | 02:10 |
| sadiel | thanls a lot goys :) | 02:10 |
| sadiel | guys | 02:10 |
| eeh_rik | :) | 02:10 |
| eeh_rik | two ways to do same thing | 02:10 |
| akh3n4t0n | frederic, you need http://packages.medibuntu.org/ in your repos | 02:10 |
| andi5 | sadiel: actually, it is pe.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hardy [dist ...] | 02:10 |
| eeh_rik | if i could only ONE way to fix my eth controller :( | 02:10 |
| tanath | wil, might file a bug | 02:10 |
| vincenzofehring | prince_jammys: yes i read the links, but the xorg.conf file doesn't have the lines that they are refering to... | 02:10 |
| bennyf12 | macd: is amsn supposed to work with Windows Live messenger | 02:10 |
| macd | vincenzofehring, try this instead : http://paste.ubuntu.com/9897/ | 02:10 |
| frederic | akh3n4t0n, funny ... it's already in my sources ... | 02:10 |
| vincenzofehring | macd: i want it to be able to go up to 1024x768 | 02:11 |
| * SevenSeth alguem ja jogou Final Fantasy X no pc? | 02:11 | |
| prince_jammys | vincenzofehring: the mode lines? | 02:11 |
| vincenzofehring | prince_jammys: yeah | 02:11 |
| Mimi | !pt | SevenSeth: | 02:11 |
| macd | vincenzofehring, you said it was at 1024.768 already just now, and that it went down to 800.600 | 02:11 |
| ubottu | SevenSeth:: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt para ajuda em português. Obrigado. | 02:11 |
| wil | tanath: ha i hoped it wouldent come to that | 02:11 |
| SevenSeth | sorry | 02:11 |
| macd | vincenzofehring, so was it ever at 1024.768 or not? | 02:11 |
| Mimi | Its ok ^^ | 02:11 |
| prince_jammys | vincenzofehring: you may have to add those yourself (after backing up a copy xorg.conf) | 02:11 |
| vincenzofehring | no... it was 800x600, but used to support 1024x768 | 02:11 |
| SevenSeth | wrong command | 02:11 |
| arvind_khadri | susanna777, ok paste your fstab and mtab | 02:11 |
| SevenSeth | =) | 02:11 |
| macd | vincenzofehring, in linux or windows? | 02:11 |
| susanna777 | arvind_khadri, what are those? | 02:11 |
| tanath | wil, it's a weird problem... | 02:12 |
| vincenzofehring | it was 1024x768 in windows, and i want that resolution in linux | 02:12 |
| macd | vincenzofehring, what it does in windows is irrelavent linux IS NOT windows | 02:12 |
| tanath | wil, anything in dmesg? | 02:12 |
| con-man | Hardy Heron has seemed to goof up how I shift+click stuff | 02:12 |
| macd | vincenzofehring, but try that paste link I posted a second ago, and then restart X and login again | 02:12 |
| prince_jammys | vincenzofehring: look at a working xorg.conf in that forum thread, if there is one, and copy the lines. | 02:12 |
| tanath | wil, next time check dmesg when it happens | 02:12 |
| akh3n4t0n | frederic, as far as i can see.. VLC is in "multiverse" | 02:12 |
| macd | prince_jammys, I already did that for him in a paste. | 02:12 |
| * frederic gonna get mad | 02:12 | |
| tanath | wil, and any other error logs, like ~/.xsession-errors | 02:12 |
| vincenzofehring | okay, thank you guys! | 02:12 |
| eboyjr | In GRUB, what does hiddenmenu do? Does it just automatically start the default operating system selected or what? | 02:13 |
| arvind_khadri | susanna777, they are files found in /etc/fstab and /etc/mtab | 02:13 |
| macd | bennyf12, amsn is a msn client for linux | 02:13 |
| andi5 | frederic: please pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list | 02:13 |
| zelrikriando | I am back | 02:13 |
| susanna777 | arvind_khadri, what are those and how do i find them? | 02:13 |
| Mimi | Welcome back | 02:13 |
| bennyf12 | macd: however, will it work with a Windows Live messenger client?? | 02:13 |
| zelrikriando | xyzpaw: you're ok now? | 02:13 |
| kbrooks | bennyf12, uh | 02:13 |
| tanath | hmm, my update manager is no longer notifying me of updates... | 02:13 |
| macd | bennyf12, they are CLIENTS, they dont work together, they work through a MSN server, so its not relavant. | 02:13 |
| zelrikriando | tanath: same here. | 02:13 |
| arvind_khadri | susanna777, type this gksu gedit /etc/fstab | 02:14 |
| Mimi | tanath: how often do you have it set up to check for updates? | 02:14 |
| andi5 | tanath: i noticed the same today and added hardy-updates to my repo list :) | 02:14 |
| tanath | Mimi, daily | 02:14 |
| con-man | does anyone know why I cant shift+click properly in 8.04? what has changed? | 02:14 |
| joeLin | any help with pppoe here? | 02:14 |
| arvind_khadri | susanna777, and then copy paste the text at pastebin | 02:14 |
| macd | bennyf12, some features that Windows Live messenger has, amsn will not have, you can thank microsoft for that. | 02:14 |
| kbrooks | eboyjr, no, it hides the menu and provides a count down to press esc on the timeout setting | 02:14 |
| tanath | Mimi, i have updates now, but no notification | 02:14 |
| zelrikriando | andi5: repo address? | 02:14 |
| arvind_khadri | susanna777, the same with mtab too | 02:14 |
| Mimi | tanath: and youre noticing that there are more than one update a day? if thats the case it will only check 1 time per day regardless of how many there are that day | 02:14 |
| andi5 | zelrikriando: sorry? | 02:14 |
| bennyf12 | macd: is video webcam sending one of those?? | 02:15 |
| zelrikriando | andi5: you said you added some repository | 02:15 |
| susanna777 | arvind_khadri, http://paste.ubuntu.com/9899/ | 02:15 |
| tanath | Mimi, i know that. but twice now, i opened update manager and found there were updates | 02:15 |
| kbrooks | eboyjr, if the timeout setting is '0', it skips the prompt, but you can press esc repeatedly | 02:15 |
| tanath | Mimi, i just opened in now, and there's 20 | 02:15 |
| arvind_khadri | susanna777, the same way mtab too | 02:15 |
| tanath | *it | 02:15 |
| andi5 | zelrikriando: yes, but it can be done by clicking a checkbox in system > administration > software sources... personally, i simply edited /etc/apt/sources.list and reran sudo apt-get update | 02:15 |
| kbrooks | eboyjr, 0, not '0' | 02:15 |
| macd | bennyf12, amsn works perfectly with my logitech webcam, sends/recieves to all my windows using friends. | 02:16 |
| punzada | !wifi | 02:16 |
| con-man | anyone? | 02:16 |
| ubottu | Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 02:16 |
| * eeh_rik wants to cry! http://pastebin.com/d53847d85 | 02:16 | |
| tanath | Mimi, before, i couldn't get rid of an alert saying my package info is out of date. now, since they updated the update manager, it doesn't alert me at all | 02:16 |
| eboyjr | kbrooks, Okay.. I understand... thx! | 02:16 |

| coomac | syntac, I'm using b43, which works great, but bcm43xx worked well for me till b43 was released | 02:21 |
| susanna777 | arvind_khadri, any idea why it could a month ago? | 02:21 |
| tritium | ryugaka: yes | 02:22 |
| macd | Marce_, load a console, type 'tail -f n 50 /var/log/syslog' and wait for your crontab to run, also paste us your crontab to pastebin, so we can see if it will run | 02:22 |
| arvind_khadri | susanna777, ok did you do a fresh install from then?? | 02:22 |

| susanna777 | arvind_khadri, i updated to hardy with the update manager | 02:23 |
| akh3n4t0n | susanna777, ok | 02:23 |
| ryugaka | There was a fix where you had to rmmod one thing, and then let ndiswrapper go first. | 02:23 |
| ryugaka | and then b44 | 02:23 |
| ryugaka | or something like that | 02:23 |
| tanath | Mimi, that was the problem. it wasn't running. i ran it, and now got the alert | 02:23 |

| European-African | hi, my sound is making a horrible crackling sound, any suggestion why? | 02:25 |
| Marce_ | macd, yep i know, i am a programmer who cant set a stupid cronjob xD | 02:25 |
| sven_ | unop: yes, a little | 02:25 |
| tanath | Mimi, it was having issues. there was a bug. killing it was necessary | 02:25 |
| macd | Marce_, then set it for 5 minutes and wait ;) | 02:26 |
| coomac | syntac, what eeh_rik said, and also if your wifi has a toggle switch you may need to hit it | 02:26 |
| YuriQ | having difficutly - xrandr commands have absolutely no effect | 02:26 |
| * frederic is oficialy mad ... | 02:26 | |
| ryugaka | So have they fixed the ndiswrapper issues :D? | 02:26 |
| andi5 | Marce_: oh, i have seen system administrators failing with crontab entries ;-) | 02:26 |
| Marce_ | macd, i'll show you my line of my crontab | 02:26 |
| xyzpaw | eeh_rik could you please explain what you told me? | 02:26 |
| prince_jammys | susanna777: didn't you mention that the windows partition is FAT32? | 02:26 |
| Marce_ | andi5, hahahahaha | 02:26 |
| syntac | coomac, i have one but when i press it nothing happens (it constantly stays blue. in windows it goes red if it is disabled) | 02:26 |
| YuriQ | anyone familiar with xrandr? | 02:26 |
| tanath | oh, wow, apparently mplayer has some serious security issues: #395252 - requires too much security maintainance work due to embedded ffmpeg copy | 02:26 |
| susanna777 | prince_jammys, no it is ntfs | 02:26 |
| prince_jammys | susanna777: ok | 02:26 |
| eeh_rik | xyzpaw, youre trying to use streamripper/streamtuner, right? | 02:26 |
| arvind_khadri | susanna777, is it installing | 02:26 |
| xyzpaw | yes rik | 02:26 |
| macd | Morglet, I dont know why, but move auto eth1 above where it says iface eth1 inet static | 02:27 |
| xyzpaw | yes eehrik | 02:27 |
| frederic | !vlc-nox | 02:27 |
| Marce_ | macd: i have this | 02:27 |
| ubottu | Factoid vlc-nox not found | 02:27 |
| Marce_ | macd: 01 * * * * backupweb | 02:27 |
| akh3n4t0n | arvind_khadri, can you, please, take a look at this http://paste.ubuntu.com/9906/ ? it nearly identical to susanna777's and still i have no problems with my ntsf partition | 02:27 |
| macd | Morglet, it looks like its having a parse issue | 02:27 |
| coomac | syntac, open konsole and enter this please: 'dmesg | grep b43" | 02:27 |
| === felipe__ is now known as FelipeMorales | ||
| European-African | re, my sound is making a horrible crackling noise, any suggestions why? drivers? | 02:27 |
| macd | Marce_, cronjobs must have absolute paths. | 02:27 |
| arvind_khadri | akh3n4t0n, on it | 02:27 |
| eeh_rik | xyzpaw, then u need to configute streamtuner so it knows where your xmms is.. ususally /usr/bin/xmms .. if not find out with 'which xmms' in console | 02:27 |
| Morglet | macd: OK, trying that | 02:27 |
| coomac | syntac, it'll say whether the card is enabled or disabled | 02:27 |
| susanna777 | arvind_khadri, YES!!!!!! It recognizes it. | 02:27 |
| unop | sven_, perl -le 'print for grep { /$ARGV[0]/ } map { glob "$_/*" } split /:/, $ENV{PATH}' regular_expression | 02:27 |
| andi5 | Marce_: are you sure backupweb is in the PATH when called? try an absolute path | 02:27 |
| syntac | coomac, hold up i'm rebooting | 02:27 |
| xyzpaw | i already did "which xmms" | 02:27 |
| susanna777 | arvind_khadri, i should be able to resize it on the live cd now right? | 02:27 |
| Marce_ | macd, i put backupweb in /usr/bin | 02:27 |
| arvind_khadri | akh3n4t0n, ntfsprogs is used for live cd | 02:28 |
| Marce_ | macd, when i call 'backupweb' it runs ok | 02:28 |
| arvind_khadri | susanna777, yah all the way :) | 02:28 |
| macd | Marce_, so, 01 * * * * /usr/bin/backupweb | 02:28 |
| Marce_ | macd, i'll give it a try... | 02:28 |
| tanath | European-African, prolly the switch to pulse-audio. some people have had issues with it | 02:28 |
| eeh_rik | there is a setting somewhere in streamtuner where u can set the path to xmms.. | 02:28 |
| frederic | what is vlc-nox ? | 02:28 |
| damntourists | macd, is that short for mac daddy? | 02:28 |
| macd | Marce_, additionally, if the file backupweb is not chmod +x it will not run. | 02:28 |
| akh3n4t0n | arvind_khadri, ok, but my ubuntu is installed on the hard disk and i'm using my ntfs partition :| | 02:28 |
| xyzpaw | eeh_rik i already did which xmms | 02:28 |
| susanna777 | arvind_khadri, and everybody else who helped thank you very much and i will try the live cd now | 02:28 |
| ryugaka | Well I guess I can check ubuntu1501 | 02:28 |
| macd | damntourists, its just a nick. | 02:28 |
| European-African | tanath: is there a way of fixing it? | 02:29 |
| ryugaka | to see if there are any fixes | 02:29 |
| andi5 | frederic: -nox typically stands for -no-x, i.e. a text-only package version | 02:29 |
| arvind_khadri | akh3n4t0n, i meant by gparted cd for ntfs things ,thats ok | 02:29 |
| eeh_rik | xyzpaw, and then u have retrieved the path to xmms.. :) now u enter it in streamtner preferences | 02:29 |
| frederic | andi5, so it's not really vlc, I guess | 02:29 |
| arvind_khadri | susanna777, welcome ,do tell us how it went | 02:29 |
| shadeofgrey | okay | 02:29 |
| sven_ | another quick one: how do you target a msg to someone in irc? /user? | 02:29 |
| susanna777 | i will | 02:29 |
| Starnestommy | sven_: like this? | 02:29 |
| eeh_rik | ./msg | 02:29 |
| sven_ | yes | 02:29 |
| macd | sven_, /msg user | 02:29 |
| Marce_ | macd, yep, it has execution permission. | 02:29 |
| xtify3 | how do u install cairo-starter bar | 02:29 |
| Starnestommy | sven_: say their nick in a line | 02:29 |
| xyzpaw | eeh_rik: no when i did which xmms it returned nothing | 02:29 |
| tanath | European-African, you'd have to do some troubleshooting. did you play with the sound applet? | 02:29 |
| akh3n4t0n | arvind_khadri, ok i got it; ntfsprogs are only needed for gparted to di its job, right? | 02:29 |
| shadeofgrey | who here is running ubuntu on a coreduo macbookpro with vista and leopard | 02:30 |
| eeh_rik | xyzpaw then u dont have it installed, type in sudo apt-get install xmms | 02:30 |
| joeLin | im using hardy heron, pon dsl-provider to connect to snet.net. once, connected, I can ping external addresses from my network, but web browsing doenst work, SNET claims my "router" is passing a bad password. pppoe IS passing the proper password. any help on that? | 02:30 |
| Mimi | Question: does nvidia-settings --load-config-only still work in 8.04 or is that outdated? | 02:30 |
| andi5 | frederic: well, it probably does not have a complex gui, but only shows the player window or fullscreen... and can be controlled by start parameters or maybe even keybindings | 02:30 |
| macd | shadeofgrey, I have i the paste | 02:30 |
| Marce_ | macd: -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 195 2008-05-03 21:55 backupweb | 02:30 |
| tanath | European-African, try different outputs with it, and see what works | 02:30 |
| con-man | what happened to xmms? there is no gui its all console QQQQQQQQQQQQ | 02:30 |
| arvind_khadri | akh3n4t0n, yeah bingo | 02:30 |
| akh3n4t0n | arvind_khadri, thanks :) | 02:30 |
| European-African | tanath, which sound applet? | 02:30 |
| secleinteer | hi, has anyone heard of the hardy x86 alternate cd not picking up the keybard at all, where all previous versions of ubuntu have? | 02:30 |
| macd | Marce_, just set the crontab like I said above, it will work then. | 02:30 |
| sven_ | Starnestommy: this? | 02:30 |
| shadeofgrey | macd: by all means share | 02:30 |
| Starnestommy | sven_: yes | 02:30 |
| tanath | European-African, System > Prefs > Sound | 02:30 |
| macd | Marce_, you didnt have to prove it to me ;P | 02:30 |
| Morglet | macd: No difference, still doesn't obey the netmask, nor add the default route. | 02:30 |
| sven_ | Starnestommy: that's easy | 02:30 |

| Marce_ | macd: i'll pastebin that | 02:32 |

| q_a_z_steve | hey, can someone really quickly tell me the best way to use dd to backup /usr ? I need syntax using bzip, and noerror I think... HELP? | 02:33 |

| Marce_ | macd, http://paste.ubuntu.com/9907/ | 02:33 |
| tanath | xyzpaw, but go to System > Admin > Software sources, to enable other repositories | 02:33 |

| sven_ | prince_jammys: oops | 02:34 |
| macd | Marce_, Im not sure why you pasted that? your cronjob wont run yet | 02:34 |
| prince_jammys | sven_: there used to be #ubuntu-dev (i think) | 02:34 |
| andi5 | q_a_z_steve: i am not sure how you want to backup recursively with dd without tarring first or having /usr on a separate unmounted partition | 02:34 |
| sven_ | hmmm, checking... | 02:34 |
| Marce_ | macd, thats the output of syslog! | 02:34 |
| macd | Marce_, but you can be assured, if you have the crontab like 01 * * * * /usb/bin/backupweb | 02:34 |
| macd | it will work | 02:34 |
| damntourists | so i went out and purchased a new agp 8x video card, hopefully this one actually works with ubuntu. my old one wasnt working like.. at all. | 02:34 |
| prince_jammys | sven_: #ubuntu-devel | 02:34 |
| macd | Marce_, yeah, I meant the output from around the time the crontab was going to run, how else would I diagnose why it wasnt running | 02:35 |
| xyzpaw | tanath: i already have everything enabled | 02:35 |
| sven_ | prince_jammys: found it. | 02:35 |
| MachinTrucChose | has anyone managed to get Tracker to work as advertised (ie, in the screenshots). I can't get it to show me a preview of the file (for example, a sentence containing the word I searched for). All it does is display the word and the filename. | 02:35 |
| macd | Morglet, is that a workstation? | 02:35 |
| MachinTrucChose | which is not very helpful since there is no context | 02:35 |
| frederic | why when I do sudo apt-get update does the repository ignore Translation-fr ? (I don't think it matters with vlc but ...) | 02:35 |
| q_a_z_steve | andi5: /usr will not be live when I do this, tar bz2 whatever I can, to make it the smallest, with one line of syntax. | 02:35 |
| ad | damntourists, i hope you did buy a nvidia/ati/intel not something exotic | 02:35 |
| Marce_ | macd, the process is running ok. | 02:35 |
| macd | Morglet, or a server, Im asking b/c network-manager may be fighting with it | 02:35 |
| Marce_ | macd, checked with ps | 02:35 |
| tanath | xyzpaw, then update your package info (reload in synaptic, or 'sudo aptitude update') | 02:35 |
| damntourists | ad: i purchased a 60 dollar nvidia card | 02:35 |
| Marce_ | macd: maybe am i editing by a wrong way? | 02:35 |
| tanath | xyzpaw, or use update manager | 02:35 |
| Marce_ | macd: i am editing this way: | 02:36 |
| macd | Marce_, your crontab isnt going to run right now, LOOK at the time. | 02:36 |
| xyzpaw | tanath where is update manager? | 02:36 |
| Marce_ | macd: sudo crontab -u root -e | 02:36 |
| * frederic speaking to walls and thinking how stupid he was to think newer is better ... | 02:36 | |
| frederic | ;) | 02:36 |
| Marce_ | macd, YES!!! i looked at the time! thats the reason i paste the output of syslog! | 02:36 |
| tanath | xyzpaw, system > admin > update manager | 02:36 |
| macd | Marce_, but not after you fixed the absolute path issue. | 02:37 |

| xyzpaw | tanath what do i replace xmms with? | 02:45 |
| etheredge | would it be able to fine the src file? | 02:46 |
| tanath | xyzpaw, go to Streamtuner's preferences and in the Applications tab change XMMS to totem or any other media player you are using | 02:46 |
| andi5 | John_S: install the necessary -dev packages | 02:46 |
| etheredge | and no nothing showed up | 02:46 |
| sven_ | prince_jammys: would you happen to know why #python is telling me i need to "register"? | 02:46 |
| tanath | xyzpaw, audacious | 02:46 |
| r00723r0 | andi5, something also seems wrong with dbus. | 02:46 |
| tanath | xyzpaw, is very similar | 02:46 |
| con-man | what happened to xmms? there is no gui its all console QQQQQQQQQQQQ | 02:46 |
| andi5 | r00723r0: why that? | 02:46 |
| r00723r0 | Nevermind on that last call. | 02:46 |
| prince_jammys | sven_: no :) | 02:46 |
| xyzpaw | ok im tryiung to change it to amarok what do i type in? | 02:46 |
| susanna777 | arvind_khadri: if you are there i am on from the live cd | 02:46 |
| * andi5 does not mind | 02:46 | |
| r00723r0 | Because Pidgin and Exaile wouldn't work, andi5. | 02:46 |
| eeh_rik | macd im not sure what nics are in this context, but look here if you havent already http://pastebin.com/d53847d85 | 02:46 |
| prince_jammys | !register | sven_ | 02:46 |
| xyzpaw | tanath | 02:46 |
| ubottu | sven_: By default, only registered users can send private messages - Information about registering your nickname: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#userregistration - Type « /nick <nickname> » to select your nickname. | 02:46 |
| ad | John_S, there is something to install build dep's on ubuntu , i thin it was apt-get install (somehing) .. | 02:46 |
| r00723r0 | But Exaile is suddenly working so I say it's just a Pidgin issue alone. | 02:46 |
| macd | eeh_rik, in your case, I think your card isnt able to pickup a dhcp request, due to a router, or cable modem maybe? | 02:46 |
| tanath | xyzpaw, amarok is the best :) | 02:46 |
| eido_ | how do i format a floppy? | 02:47 |
| andi5 | r00723r0: i doubt that pidgin has a hard dependency on dbus, but i am not sure | 02:47 |
| mulvane | Exaile is looking good. | 02:47 |
| prince_jammys | sven_: follow those steps | 02:47 |
| xyzpaw | tanath ok so what do i type in | 02:47 |
| eeh_rik | well it works well in winows :( | 02:47 |
| chris127 | has anyone used "install inside windows" option? | 02:47 |
| John_S | andi5: OK, which dev packages do I need? | 02:47 |
| mulvane | Needs a few improvements. But its definately useable | 02:47 |
| tanath | xyzpaw, did you do this? go to Streamtuner's preferences and in the Applications tab change XMMS to totem or any other media player you are using | 02:47 |
| tanath | xyzpaw, type where? | 02:47 |
| sven_ | prince_jammys: what do you mean? | 02:47 |
| ad | John_S, like "apt-get install build-essential kde" | 02:47 |
| macd | eeh_rik, are you hooked directly to a router? or a cable modem? | 02:47 |
| arvind_khadri | susanna777, did the thing work?? | 02:47 |
| andi5 | John_S: start with kdebase-dev | 02:47 |
| xyzpaw | type in place of xmms | 02:47 |
| E_Cornflake | andi5: upgrade went fine apart from the kernel and related packages. currently patially installed and i get dpeendency errors trying to install them. I've been upgradeding over about 5 release now though, so that might be causing a problem. this ins on x86 | 02:47 |
| prince_jammys | etheredge: there seems to be a deb availiable: http://blog.goukihq.org/2006/07/28/the-hackers-choice-hydra-on-ubuntu/ | 02:47 |
| eeh_rik | router with network etc.. everything set up fine | 02:47 |
| DaySleeper555 | etheredge Package manager installs binaries packaged for Ubuntu, not source codes, if you can find it in synaptic, u would save time compiling it | 02:47 |
| susanna777 | arvind_khadri: i'm trying to resize it again, the first time it gave me an error | 02:47 |
| eeh_rik | and im currently on win on the machine with the problem | 02:48 |
| John_S | ad, andi5: OK thanks I'll give it a try. :) | 02:48 |
| xyzpaw | tanath can we chat somewhere more quiet? maybe at #xyzpaw | 02:48 |
| prince_jammys | sven_: the link from ubottu will tell you how to register. | 02:48 |
| macd | eeh_rik, just for fun have you turned your ubuntu box off, then rebooted your router. | 02:48 |
| arvind_khadri | susanna777, what was the error | 02:48 |

| Morglet | macd: want me to ask again in channel with the pastebin, for someone else to pick up? | 02:49 |

| con-man | what happened to xmms? there is no gui its all console QQQQQQQQQQQQ | 02:49 |
| sven_ | prince_jammys: aaah. i assume you mods have that power? | 02:49 |
| arvind_khadri | susanna777, it has no details regarding your issue | 02:49 |
| macd | shadeofgrey, no bootcamps makes this a push button operation | 02:49 |
| prince_jammys | sven_: you do too | 02:49 |
| eeh_rik | i see you have hands full | 02:49 |
| E_Cornflake | andi5: always use aptitude instead of apt, do you think that could cause problems? | 02:50 |
| eeh_rik | gn8! | 02:50 |
| Ricket | How can I diagnose my standby issues? My computer "wakes up" per se, but the screen does not come on and nothing appears to load - I need to know how to fix this, standby is VERY important as I am on a laptop!! | 02:50 |

| chris127 | how well does "installing in windows" work with vista? | 02:50 |
| sven_ | !register | 02:50 |

| macd | ohhh nvm | 02:50 |
| macd | Morglet, ok, not busy now, hehe | 02:50 |
| Morglet | macd: kk (I'm happy to put tests into shell scripts here, if you tell me where) | 02:50 |
| shadeofgrey | so i have theCD and bootcamp is already present | 02:50 |
| andi5 | E_Cornflake: i am not sure... i have never upgraded using aptitude... for all other tasks i use aptitude extensively | 02:50 |
| eboyjr | What do you call a program that had code coloring and other features? | 02:50 |
| ozzloy | http://xrl.us/bj5ev i tried this, but still no desktop effects. what should i do to enable desktop effects? | 02:50 |
| thebigham | danbhfive: no i did a fresh install | 02:50 |
| eboyjr | s/had/has | 02:50 |
| shadeofgrey | thats it? | 02:50 |
| susanna777 | arvind_khadri: okay just a sec | 02:50 |
| macd | Morglet, does it work via dhcp over static? | 02:50 |
| eboyjr | IDE? | 02:50 |
| arvind_khadri | susanna777, ok | 02:50 |
| sven_ | prince_jammys: k, so freenode tells me to input this /msg command to nickserv w/ my password. is that secure to do here? | 02:51 |
| E_Cornflake | andi5: ok, thans. trying with apt-get this time | 02:51 |
| Morglet | macd: no dhcp here, my LAN is all static | 02:51 |
| laeg | default application problem >>> selecting /bin/azureus/azureus in the 'open with' tab of a .torrent files properties and selecting the radio button doesn't make azureus the default application. running the file does nothing and it has no default. how can i fix this? | 02:51 |
| * frederic still searching what's wrong ... | 02:51 | |
| laeg | !azureus | 02:51 |
| macd | Morglet, hmm I was kinda hoping for testing | 02:51 |
| ubottu | azureus is a popular bittorent client written in Java, installation instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AzureusHowTo | 02:51 |
| tony | This is what an attempt to fsck the drive gets: http://pastebin.com/m5bc23262 | 02:51 |
| chalcedony | sven_: type it in your server window | 02:51 |
| tony | (and no, no other processes are attempting to access the drive, and it's not mounted) | 02:51 |
| chalcedony | sven_: all commands on irc start with / | 02:51 |
| andi5 | laeg: /bin/azureus/azureus looks like a broken path... are you sure it is not /usr/bin/azureus? | 02:51 |
| prince_jammys | sven_: it is, but better to do it away from here. do it in the main "ubuntu irc" window in your client | 02:51 |
| Ricket | sven_: if I were you, i would type it in the server window just in case you forget the slash or something goes wrong, but normally it is "safe" to type here, in the sense that it would work | 02:51 |
| linkmaster03 | How can I disable the big sound icon popping up when i move the volume wheel on my laptop? | 02:51 |
| shadeofgrey | its finally that easy | 02:51 |
| prince_jammys | sven_: if you want to test different bot factoids, /msg ubottu and fire way | 02:52 |
| sven_ | how do i get to the server window in pidgin? or should i be using xchat? | 02:52 |
| macd | tony, you cant do that to the same machine your logged into, you have to uyse the livecd, or unmount the filesystem. | 02:52 |
| prince_jammys | sven_: *away | 02:52 |
| shadeofgrey | does sual monitor support still suck? | 02:52 |
| eboyjr | What;s the best IDE for Ubuntu? | 02:52 |
| andi5 | linkmaster03: /me wants to hear the solution as well :) | 02:52 |
| danbhfive | thebigham: http://markusthielmann.com/blog/defusing_one_most_annoying_bugs_ubuntu_hardy_heron_stop_flash_killing_firefox try this | 02:52 |
| shadeofgrey | for those of us that are ati | 02:52 |
| susanna777 | arvind_khadri: i don't know what else to tell you i put in two commands, one to resize my win partition from 24 GB to 18.06 GB | 02:52 |
| macd | shadeofgrey, I had the nvidia gfx, it all worked fine | 02:52 |
| arvind_khadri | susanna777, ok so does it happend | 02:52 |
| tony | macd: The drive is already connected to another system, and is not mounted. | 02:52 |
| arvind_khadri | ?? | 02:52 |
| tony | macd: (indeed, I cannot mount it) | 02:52 |
| Morglet | macd: well that config works perfectly when I type in the ifconfig and route commands by hand, so the question is why isn't it running the same commands. :-) | 02:52 |
| thebigham | danbhfive: Thank you | 02:52 |
| shadeofgrey | well i finally ran the liuveCD with no issue | 02:53 |
| susanna777 | arvind_khadri: and increase the size sda4 which has the root and swap file under it, from 9.71GB to 15.64GB | 02:53 |
| macd | tony, whances are udev did mount it. | 02:53 |
| r00723r0 | How do I reinstall my kernel? | 02:53 |
| shadeofgrey | and it ran no prob | 02:53 |
| susanna777 | arvind_khadri: it starts to do something then it gives me the error message, but it does not resize them | 02:53 |
| r00723r0 | As in uninstall it then reinstall it? | 02:53 |
| kodmaster | Hi, during install of hardy heron x64, the install gets stuck at 5% formatting the ide drive. Any help is appreciated. Thanks. | 02:53 |

| arvind_khadri | susanna777, ok .. | 02:57 |
| macd | Morglet, looking around on lauchpad (bug tracking for ubuntu) I see some similar things, but they were all due to parse erros, or wild spaces, newlines in the interfaces file, but I think you might have come across a actual bug. | 02:57 |

| susanna777 | okay | 03:27 |

| Foo1 | oi? | 03:27 |
| sebsebseb | susanna777: sudo qtparted in the terminal | 03:27 |

| arvind_khadri | Foo1, press ctrl+alt+f1 and there login as root | 03:28 |

| Foo1 | arvind_khadri: I never gave root a password | 03:28 |

| mike_e | and it erased everything that was on my hard drive | 03:29 |

| thomas | hmmmmmm | 03:30 |
| Foo1 | it just dumps me back at the login prompt after saying "unable to cd" | 03:30 |
| ldiamond | well then, if you installed it wrongly and erased all your files, nothing much can be done | 03:30 |
| ldiamond | there are ways to recover these data but it requires decent knowledge | 03:30 |

| Morglet | macd: I've replaced /etc/init.d/networking by a hack that directly sets and unsets my eth1 and routing correctly, which'll do for now. But basically I think you have a bug in /sbin/ifup. | 03:30 |
| Morglet | macd: It may be related to eth0 not being available in my machine (doesn't appear in lspci at all), but other distros (and Windows) are fine. | 03:30 |

| theDtTvB2 | Hello, how do I prevent Compiz Fusion to start with KDE 4? | 03:46 |
| thomas | mike_e: ok... you need to type the partition, you cant simply mount the drive. | 03:46 |
| DrifterSX | and it says it is reffered to by another package name fomr a different source? | 03:46 |
| thomas | mike_e: you need to try something like sda1, sda2, sda3 (hit tab once you type sda to see which partitions of sda u can mount) | 03:47 |
| mike_e | yeah | 03:47 |
| mike_e | it does the same thing | 03:47 |
| babolat | DrifterSX: isn't it in synaptic? | 03:47 |
| mike_e | there are no sda partitions in /dev/ | 03:47 |
| jack | theDtTvB2: kill it then make sure it isn't running when you log off. | 03:47 |
| DrifterSX | oo maybe lol i didnt chk there yet...duuhhhhsky | 03:47 |
| mike_e | i.e. ls /dev | grep sda produces nothing | 03:47 |

| hb | Grub is giving me an error 15 after an 8.04 alternate install. I am using softraid but only for /home. / is mounted on the primary boot device. Is grub busted in 8.04? | 03:49 |
| mike_e | I had a root partition that was ext3 | 03:49 |
| mike_e | and a swap partition | 03:49 |
| eboyjr | clem, Cool! Thanks. | 03:49 |
| mike_e | I know that because when I installed ubuntu that's what it said | 03:49 |
| arvind_khadri | hb, re-isntall grub ,the /home is a separate partition right | 03:50 |
| thomas | mike_e: ok try this 'mount -t ext3 /dev/sda /mnt/temp' | 03:50 |
| Schiz0|SD | Is there any downside to mounting everything with noatime? I don't care about when the last time a file is accessed, and I think it'll be easier on my HDD this way. | 03:50 |
| G__81 | i ve installed ubuntu 8.04 and i ve a problem with the Graphics Card Driver. I use a NVidia GeForce 8400 M GS card and hence i installed the beta driver from nvidia.com so what happens is that is weird. after i install the driver and when i do gdm start the driver works but when i reboot the system the driver does not seem to work | 03:50 |
| G__81 | the driver somehow does not seem to get loaded | 03:51 |
| thomas | mike_e: i meant sudo... 'sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/sda /mnt/temp' | 03:51 |

| Werenerd | Hey all, Is it possible in GNOME to have a two lined taskbar like in KDE? I see these old screenshots with it, but nothing recent. Example here: http://toastytech.com/guis/rh8floppy.png | 03:51 |
| hb | arvind_khadri, yes / and /home arn't even on the same interface. I've reinstalled the base system twice now with the same error. | 03:51 |
| MakGyver | how can I change the console font/resolution in the tty consoles? | 03:51 |
| dushich | #ubuntu-ru | 03:51 |
| babolat | G__81: does it make a difference if you used the one in the repos? | 03:51 |
| thomas | tell me what it says when you type 'sudo fdisk -l' (upload the output to pastebin.ca | 03:52 |
| clem | mike_e: "sudo fdisk -l" will give you a list of all your partitions | 03:52 |
| r00723r0 | OK... | 03:52 |
| thomas | clem: wow you read my mind | 03:52 |
| r00723r0 | I can't open programs through GNOME but I can run them in gnome-terminal. | 03:52 |
| mike_e | nothing comes out | 03:52 |
| r00723r0 | For example, compiz wouldn't replace with the run dialog. | 03:52 |
| clem | thomas: :) | 03:52 |
| r00723r0 | And Exaile wouldn't open either. | 03:52 |
| hb | arvind_khadri, if I install the standard 8.04 image without a softraid setup grub boots fine. I only get error 15 when I use the alternate install and configure my software raid. | 03:52 |
| thomas | mike_e: there has to be an output | 03:52 |
| arvind_khadri | hb, ok seems like the grub on the alternate might be a toast.... use some other cd or other older versions of live cd and check | 03:52 |
| r00723r0 | But both work with the gnome-terminal. | 03:52 |
| r00723r0 | Any suggestions? | 03:52 |
| G__81 | babolat, yes coz the latest beta driver alone works with my card thats a bug in Nvidia and this is the workaround | 03:52 |
| hb | hm | 03:52 |
| hb | i've got 7 still I'll try that | 03:53 |
| Werenerd | mike_e: I just joined and don't know your details. But did you just update to Hardy and lose an entire HD? | 03:53 |
| mike_e | there is no output, it lits nothing | 03:53 |
| r00723r0 | Hmm. | 03:53 |
| mike_e | no, this problem happened before hardy came out | 03:53 |
| r00723r0 | It works in the run dialog if I select "view in terminal". | 03:53 |
| r00723r0 | Weird as hell. | 03:53 |
| babolat | mike_e: it either lists something or give u back an error... | 03:53 |
| arvind_khadri | hb, well alternate is the only one which gives option for setting raid | 03:53 |
| r00723r0 | Anyone know anything about this? | 03:53 |
| ronin | hi hi hi | 03:53 |
| G__81 | babolat, after i install the driver and when i start gdm start it works but when i reboot the system it does not | 03:53 |
| ronin | wassup | 03:53 |
| thomas | mike_e: u have to type sudo, you cant just type fdisk -l... 'sudo fdisk -l' | 03:53 |
| hb | arvind_khadri, yes I was just trying to make that connection explictly | 03:53 |
| G__81 | babolat, i guess i ve found out the problem too | 03:53 |
| r00723r0 | Nobody? | 03:54 |
| Werenerd | mike_e: just out of curiosity... do you have the UUID's or the /dev/hd* paths in your fstab? | 03:54 |
| HorizonXP | I have a DV camcorder connected to my laptop's firewire port. How do I transfer video? | 03:54 |

| arvind_khadri | hb ok did you look up in the forums maybe someone would have has that issue | 03:54 |

| babolat | G__81: what was that card's name again? | 03:55 |
| G__81 | NVidia GeForce 8400 M GS | 03:55 |
| clem | MakGyver: you can ask the boot option vga=ask | 03:55 |
| mike_e | no, I don't | 03:55 |
| hb | arvind_khadri, yea but the answers didn't really seem to relate. it seemed most of the error 15 problems came from people who were installing using (webui?) Ubuntu install from windows. I'm installing from a fresh disk to a fresh disk. | 03:55 |
| babolat | G__81: un momento porfavor | 03:55 |
| MakGyver | clam ok thnx /boot? | 03:55 |
| G__81 | its currently working but when i reboot the system something does not get loaded properly thats the issue | 03:55 |
| G__81 | babolat, that means? | 03:55 |
| clem | MakGyver: in /boot/grub/menu.lst | 03:56 |
| babolat | G__81: one moment pls | 03:56 |
| G__81 | ok | 03:56 |
| bmk789 | my swap drive has hibernate data on it and the system wont automatically use it and i have no swap, how should i clear it and enable the swap? i need it ungently | 03:56 |
| bmk789 | urgently* | 03:56 |
| MakGyver | clam thx mate, appreciated | 03:56 |
| Werenerd | mike_e: you have to have something in your fstab that details where your partitions are. I would double check your HD's UUID and redo the fstab that way | 03:56 |
| clem | MakGyver: or even by typing "e" in grub itself to edit the line.. at boot time. | 03:56 |
| arvind_khadri | hb thats wubi :) ok i feel the alternate cd's grub might be a toast just check some other alternate cd ,if the problem persists then check up how you are setting the RAID | 03:56 |
| hb | arvind_khadri, the gentu forums said that the current version of grub might give that error if it's compiled with buggy cvflags or something like that. their solution was pretty advanced and speaking bluntly, over my head atm. | 03:56 |
| mike_e | There seem to be no partitions | 03:57 |
| MakGyver | clem, I dont use grub it seems | 03:57 |
| MakGyver | this is a default 8.04 install | 03:57 |
| patifa | bmk789: Did you turn off the swap or what? | 03:57 |
| mike_e | what should "ls /etc/fstab' produce? | 03:57 |
| Werenerd | mike_e: so you are not in Ubuntu at the moment right? | 03:57 |
| mike_e | I'm in ubuntu liveCD | 03:57 |
| bmk789 | patifa: no, i hibernated once and on every boot it says it cant read the swap partition because it has the filesystem type "suspend" | 03:57 |
| Werenerd | mike_e: that would produce nothing | 03:57 |
| r00723r0 | Hi, GNOME is being gay. When I use the menu or run dialog to open programs, it doesn't work (but killall works well). However, everything can be run with the terminal, and the run dialog works if I select "view in terminal". | 03:57 |
| clem | MakGyver: you don't use grub?? | 03:57 |
| arvind_khadri | hb, :) those are all the least cases ..we can ignore it at present | 03:57 |
| r00723r0 | Any suggestions? | 03:57 |
| hb | arvuind_khadri, yea i'm loading 7.10 alternate as we speak. just had to find the cd | 03:57 |
| thomas | mike_e: do this... 'ls /dev' and paste that to www.pastebin.ca and then send the link to this chat | 03:57 |
| babolat | G__81: found this. tell me if it helps :) -->http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=644331 | 03:58 |
| clem | MakGyver: a default install puts grub in your MBR. | 03:58 |
| arvind_khadri | hb, :) ok | 03:58 |
| MakGyver | clem, not sure what its using lol, its the default install (from the Live CD) | 03:58 |
| Werenerd | mike_e: the fstab is a text file. try gedit /etc/fstab | 03:58 |
| r00723r0 | Anyone? | 03:58 |
| clem | MakGyver: yes, the very first boot menu.. right after the BIOS, that's grub. | 03:58 |
| Werenerd | mike_e: that will let you look at it without making any changes. | 03:58 |
| MakGyver | clem, /boot has no grub entries/folders | 03:58 |
| clem | MakGyver: oh... | 03:58 |
| mike_e | http://www.pastebin.ca/1006592 | 03:58 |

| G__81 | babolat, coz envy does not install the beta that might be the reason | 04:00 |
| Werenerd | mike_e: well that is the list of your /dev folder... is there something you wanted me to see? | 04:00 |

| ubottu | frederic: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 04:00 |
| bmk789 | well it will have the "Starting early crypto discs..." then i enter my password and it says it couldnt mount swap because filesystem type is suspend and it asks me to enter my password again and after i do it says the same thing and continues to boot with no swap | 04:00 |
| clem | MakGyver: no problem. | 04:00 |

| babolat | thompa: go check? or just save it to your system and open with whatever you have.. | 04:09 |
| dragon64 | lucroth sounds like you have X misconfigured | 04:09 |

| Werenerd | mike_e: lol, no I was asking if maybe you added a hd, worked on the inside and may have accidentally unplugged the power cable. basic troubleshooting | 04:10 |
| Lucroth | X? What is that? And how do I reconfigure that? Ubuntu will run in its "recovery mode" if that will allow me to fix it there | 04:10 |
| Dr_willis | Aaron_Mason, ive been having issues with my SATA and IDE burners under hardy.. but dident have any issues under 7.10 - Odd that you are having issues. You might want to check the forums. | 04:10 |

| Sid1 | tritium: I have 64bit, works great | 04:38 |
| Sid1 | tritium: Any specific reason? | 04:38 |
| amnatz | i'm not doing one, i'm attempt to use one of gnome-look | 04:38 |
| unstable | So I backup my DVD Collection, in case of fire. And I want to modify the disc, when I burn it. copying it and removing css is really easy, there is some script DVD Decryptor I can run, and it does the job. I wanted to know if there was any application like DVD Backup for Windows, on GNU/Linux, so I can remove the FBi/piracy informerccials, and remove all the trailers, and all that annoying stuff. | 04:38 |
| abhi | is there any performance difference | 04:38 |
| babolat | G__81 back yet? | 04:38 |
| Sid1 | abhi: 64bit works better | 04:38 |
| tritium | Sid1: yes, better flash/java support on 32 bit, for one. | 04:38 |
| Sid1 | abhi: And it can ACTUALLY utilise your 4GB of RAM | 04:38 |
| Sid1 | tritium: Mine works just fine | 04:38 |
| tritium | abhi: very little performance gains | 04:38 |
| abhi | ok | 04:38 |
| Sid1 | Actually, 64-bit is only useful if you have 4GB+ of RAM, like I do | 04:39 |
| r00723r0 | There is no performance difference, actually. | 04:39 |
| david_-_- | where do i get the .deb of wine .15? | 04:39 |
| r00723r0 | Except for large integer calculations. | 04:39 |
| tritium | abhi: in general, most people choose 32 over 64 for those reasons | 04:39 |
| r00723r0 | Which happens very rarely. | 04:39 |
| SliderMan | can someone tell me how can i check my hardware drivers? | 04:39 |
| r00723r0 | Some image processing and 3D. | 04:39 |
| abhi | tritium, : have u compared the java in 64 and 32bit | 04:39 |
| r00723r0 | The move up to 64-bit is a marketing one. | 04:39 |
| Lincooled | Lucroth: are you there ? | 04:39 |
| Sid1 | r00723r0: 4GB RAM needs 64-bit | 04:39 |
| astro76 | unstable: k9copy is like dvdshrink | 04:39 |
| david_-_- | SliderMan: try typing lspci in term? | 04:39 |
| tritium | abhi: not myself personally, no | 04:39 |
| r00723r0 | Yes, but most computers don't have 4GB. | 04:39 |
| abhi | sid1: ok | 04:39 |
| ushimitsudoki | david_-_-: .15? are you sure about that number? current version is 0.9.61 | 04:40 |

| Lucroth | yes | 04:40 |
| SliderMan | which is term? | 04:40 |
| r00723r0 | But as far as 64-bit, everyone thought it was faster. | 04:40 |
| r00723r0 | Which it's not. | 04:40 |
| r00723r0 | Plus, AMD64 doesn't support true 64-bit addressing. | 04:40 |
| r00723r0 | It's only 48-bit. | 04:40 |
| unstable | astro76: Can I remove all the crap that isn't the movie? | 04:40 |

| nix-newbie | hello all | 04:40 |
| Sid1 | r00723r0: Really? | 04:40 |
| david_-_- | SliderMan: in the terminal | 04:40 |
| abhi | amd is not comparable to intel | 04:40 |
| r00723r0 | Sid1, yes. | 04:40 |
| G__81 | it still does not wor | 04:41 |
| Sid1 | r00723r0: AMD blows. I have AMD Turion x2, and supposedly, a 1.8GHz Core 2 duo beats an AMD 2.2GHz | 04:41 |
| nix-newbie | anybody familiar with getting projectM working on hardy64? | 04:41 |
| Lincooled | Lucroth: i wrote to you a private message | 04:41 |
| G__81 | the first time after installation the driver gets loaded | 04:41 |
| G__81 | but after reboot i dont see it working | 04:41 |
| r00723r0 | Sid1, your calculations are off. | 04:41 |
| SliderMan | my graphic card is there but i still have some problems with it how can i get a new one? | 04:41 |
| G__81 | i need someone's help desarately | 04:41 |
| Linux-Hawk | IMHO AMD kicks Intell ass for linux compatibilty! | 04:41 |
| r00723r0 | Sid1, GHz does not translate to speed. | 04:41 |
| SliderMan | its the pro savage DDR | 04:41 |
| Lucroth | I haven't gotten anything for 3 minutes | 04:41 |
| Sid1 | r00723r0: To 3DMark points? | 04:41 |
| r00723r0 | Sid1, not that either. | 04:42 |
| Behfar | i am new to unbuntu, i have installed it and i can get to a login text prompt but if i do a STARTX i get a "no screens found" and also see a VESA(0_: no matching modes and Screens foudn, but notn have useable configuration | 04:42 |
| r00723r0 | Sid1, some processors have more efficient clock cycles. | 04:42 |
| Sid1 | r00723r0: ^o) | 04:42 |
| abhi | Linux-Hawk, : how could u say that | 04:42 |
| r00723r0 | The Core 2 has a very efficient clock cycle compared to most processors. | 04:42 |
| r00723r0 | Which means it gets more done per Hz. | 04:42 |
| G__81 | can someone help me with this please? | 04:42 |
| ushimitsudoki | david_-_-: well, then I don't know the archives only go back to 0.9.36 | 04:42 |
| SeaPhor | Sid1, i have a 64 cpu, and 4 gb ram,,, had the 64 os,,, now have the 32 os,,, no, none, zero difference in the speed of what i do, only difference is that all my apps dont have to have work-arounds now | 04:42 |
| jim_beam | g__81: was up | 04:42 |
| G__81 | the nvidia beta driver works after installation and after reboot it stops working again after i install it it works but after reboot it does not | 04:43 |
| Sid1 | SeaPhor: I don't have any workarounds though, even though I have the weirdest hardware configuration | 04:43 |
| G__81 | jim_beam, there is a bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/173418 | 04:43 |

| tritium | G__81: use ubuntu-provided nvidia drivers | 04:43 |
| r00723r0 | SeaPhor, nobody was arguing about a performance increase :) Performances between 32- and 64-bit are highly similar apart from large integer calculations. | 04:43 |
| david_-_- | ushimitsudoki: where do i get the .deb for that one? | 04:43 |
| G__81 | tritium, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/173418 | 04:43 |
| Lincooled | Lucroth: did you have install the video drivers ? | 04:43 |
| nix-newbie | SeaPhor, as far as I understand, 64bit only pays dividends on server hardware as it can handle more RAM space | 04:43 |
| G__81 | it does not work its a bug | 04:43 |
| Behfar | i thought ubuntu was suppose to be stpuid friendly, i guess i'm a little too stupid | 04:43 |
| ushimitsudoki | david_-_-: you can check out the .deb archives here: http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/ | 04:43 |
| r00723r0 | Behfar, it isn't yet to the entire user base yet. | 04:44 |
| G__81 | jim_beam, i ve installed the beta driver but after installation it works but after i reboot the same driver does not work | 04:44 |
| r00723r0 | Behfar, but it's getting close. | 04:44 |
| r00723r0 | Behfar, what do you need help with? | 04:44 |
| G__81 | jim_beam, it has to do with some modules getting loaded | 04:44 |
| Lucroth | No, I haven't installed anything myself, jsut tried running the cd and booting it up and got this problem | 04:44 |
| david_-_- | ushimitsudoki: thank you | 04:44 |

| G__81 | jim_beam, i ve tried all those things its fixed only in the beta driver | 04:45 |

| r00723r0 | Behfar, so you can log in, right? | 04:45 |
| denisbr | Hi, have any channel for Ubuntu Christian Edition discussions ? | 04:45 |
| Behfar | yes i login then i type startx | 04:45 |
| G__81 | tritium, the fix is to install the beta driver i did install it and it works after installation but after i reboot the system it stops workin | 04:45 |

| G__81 | tritium, the point here to note is the output of lsmod | grep nvidia shows different output before and after reboot | 04:46 |

| SeaPhor | r00723r0, by then though we'll be discussing 128 bit stuff and debating that vs 64, lol | 04:48 |
| amirman84 | r00723r0: not that soon, 64 bits still cost more to make | 04:48 |
| Behfar | roo7234r0, maybe i am in recovery boot let me restart | 04:48 |

| Behfar | nix-newbie, regular cd didn't work it would just hang on rc.d [OK] so i did the latnerate CD | 04:49 |

| Dr_willis | GothicD3vil, Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE included by default and Gnome Not.. YOu can easially install gnome and kde both on a K/Ubuntu system | 04:50 |
| r00723r0 | amirman84, hopefully by that time computers will be embedded in our skulls and walking will be as easy as pressing a button. | 04:50 |

| r00723r0 | Behfar, ATI doesn't have a great track record with Linux, though. | 04:53 |
| nix-newbie | amen to that | 04:53 |
| r00723r0 | In fact, it's a horrible track record, stained with blood and feces. | 04:53 |

| tritium | hcyeong: GOS? What are you referring to? | 04:54 |
| r00723r0 | nix-newbie, Dr_willis, nVidia has open-sourced kernels. | 04:54 |
| nix-newbie | not by much mind, but it is better | 04:54 |
| === amidaniel is now known as amidaniel|away | ||
| jim_beam | Behfar: i use pcie radeon and 8.04 great with no extra work and fps over 4000 | 04:54 |
| Dr_willis | nix-newbie, untill they dont work.. and i see that in here quite a bit. :( | 04:54 |
| gregbrady | Can you install and run an OEM XP version in VirtualBox? | 04:54 |
| Dr_willis | We need to slap both companies around a bit :) | 04:54 |
| Behfar | r00723r0, no i do not have a device section, i went in there and i have a montiro section and screen section but not "device" | 04:54 |
| hcyeong | i m going to try...brb. | 04:55 |
| r00723r0 | Behfar, add one. | 04:55 |
| Behfar | amirman84 if i ctrl alt f1 i get to a login prompt then i login , if i startx i get NO SCREENS FOUND | 04:55 |
| nix-newbie | r00723r0, are you talking about nuvuoe? thats 3rd party | 04:55 |
| r00723r0 | nix-newbie, no, I am not. | 04:55 |
| Behfar | r00723r0, what should i put in it? | 04:55 |
| thechris | Anyone else here install 8.04 without a CD/DVD? | 04:55 |
| amirman84 | behfar: sounds like the settings in your xorg.conf file are messed up, could you find it in etc/x11/ and pastebin the results? | 04:55 |
| tritium | !repeat | thechris | 04:55 |
| ubottu | thechris: 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 | 04:55 |
| gregbrady | thechris, yes, I did via update manager. No issues. | 04:55 |
| jim_beam | i installed 8.04 w/o cd | 04:56 |
| r00723r0 | Behfar, Identifier should be set to whatever you want your card to be called, and Driver should be set to "vesa" until you figure out hardware acceleration for ATI. | 04:56 |
| beginwebgui | hello | 04:56 |
| vboyz | hey | 04:56 |
| tritium | Behfar: you've read the wiki page for ATI? | 04:56 |
| jim_beam | slow server on first night though | 04:56 |
| thechris | jim_beam: how? i am having issues wtih /dev/ram | 04:56 |
| tritium | !ati | Behfar | 04:56 |
| ubottu | Behfar: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 04:56 |
| r00723r0 | Behfar, then, under your Screen section, add (or change) the Device field, which should be the same as what you just typed in for your identifier. | 04:56 |
| beginwebgui | i upgraded to 8.10 . but after restart.. X didn't load .. it shows.. failed to load modules "kdb" | 04:56 |
| SeaPhor | amirman84, its X11 (capital makes a difference) | 04:57 |
| tritium | beginwebgui: 8.10 is not released yet | 04:57 |
| GothicD3vil | which version of ubuntu is better 7.10 or 8.04? | 04:57 |
| Sturmeh | zomg rly | 04:57 |
| amirman84 | r00723r0: sometimes the problem isnt the 3D but some iffy stuff in the xorg.conf file that makes the screen not recognized as it should be, sounds like his problem is in the device settings in xorg.conf | 04:57 |
| r00723r0 | Behfar, for example, if your identifier for your Device is "ATI Card", use "ATI Card" for Device in your Screen section. | 04:57 |
| alex_mayorga | vboyz: hi, how are you :) welcome to the Ubuntu IRC | 04:57 |
| jim_beam | thechris: i did upgrade no problems except frozen logout which i fixed | 04:57 |
| tritium | GothicD3vil: 8.04 is newer. Better is a matter of opinion. | 04:57 |
| Sturmeh | GothicD3vil: 8.04 is LTS | 04:57 |
| r00723r0 | amirman84, that's what I'm setting up. | 04:57 |
| GothicD3vil | thanks | 04:57 |
| nix-newbie | GothicD3vil, depends on how dangerously you like to live, by now 7.10 has settled down, 8.04 still has some bugs to squish | 04:57 |
| Whitesox2007 | does anyone know yet on the main problem that the upgrade crashes when upgrading from gutsy to hardy? | 04:57 |
| Sturmeh | no idea, i did a fresh install | 04:58 |
| Sturmeh | always do | 04:58 |
| r00723r0 | Behfar, did I lose you? | 04:58 |
| rgrep | Whitesox2007: I upgraded from gutsy to hardy on amd64 with no problem | 04:58 |
| gregbrady | Whitesox2007, I only had one issue with a laptop overheating, the desktops were of no issue. | 04:58 |
| nix-newbie | Sturmeh, same here | 04:58 |
| sc006 | its a little buggy :) | 04:58 |
| Whitesox2007 | i can't fresh install, for some reason hardy doesn't like my hardware. | 04:58 |
| Whitesox2007 | hm | 04:58 |
| Sturmeh | nix-newbie: gusty doesn't support my 8800GT whilst hardy does, it's awesome | 04:58 |
| Whitesox2007 | maybe that's what went wrong | 04:58 |
| thechris | jim_beam: ah, i'm just guessing that they broke that method then. | 04:58 |
| Whitesox2007 | it worked fine on one laptop | 04:58 |
| Sturmeh | *gutsy | 04:58 |
| amirman84 | r00723r0: Behfar: for instance i had 3D working once but my resolution was 640x480, i had to change stuff in the xorg.conf file to get it working again | 04:58 |
| damntourists | is there a way i can use different window themes while using compiz? i don't like any of the ones they have under system>preferences>appearance>theme | 04:58 |
| Sturmeh | use emerald | 04:58 |
| Gary_inNYC | how would I make applications open to a set location on my desktop, for example rhythmbox? | 04:59 |
| r00723r0 | amirman84, we're not worried about 3D. | 04:59 |
| rgrep | Does anyone know why there are no jigdo files for desktop? I assume it's because of the live CD? | 04:59 |
| Sturmeh | damntourists "sudo apt-get install emerald" | 04:59 |
| damntourists | Sturmeh: that runs a long side compiz? | 04:59 |
| gregbrady | Whitesox2007, yup, on my Compaq, it got too hot and I forgot to add extra cooling (frozen bag of peas!) so I had to do a fresh install. | 04:59 |
| r00723r0 | Sturmeh, you can use emerald, or you can get some themes from online. | 04:59 |
| Sturmeh | damntourists yes, it complioments it | 04:59 |
| beginwebgui | i upgraded to 8.10 . but after restart.. X server didn't load .. it shows.. failed to load modules "kdb"... anyone knows the problem.. | 04:59 |
| nix-newbie | Sturmeh, yeah i know, I had someobdy come with a wubi install, set up a broadcom wireless card without having to hack a thing, it was glorious | 04:59 |
| paulcross | The next version 8.10 can be download at june 13th. | 04:59 |
| r00723r0 | damntourists, ^^ | 04:59 |
| amirman84 | nix-newbie: from what i've heard all the bugs with 8.04 only affect people who've upgraded, i think 8.04 is best for noobs like myself | 04:59 |
| r00723r0 | damntourists, Sturmeh, you can use emerald, or you can get some themes from online. | 04:59 |
| Whitesox2007 | tried it on this laptop and ended up having to reformat. I'll try keeping it in a cooler place during install.... | 04:59 |
| leftheart | ok i still have an issue with my font being like 500 in wine..only when i am trying to config it. and its in like triples and quads when i try and install programs ANY HELP? | 04:59 |
| damntourists | Sturmeh: do you know anywhere i can get some nice themes? | 04:59 |
| drivetrax | preferences - appearance - themes .. is NOT compiz | 04:59 |
| Whitesox2007 | thanks | 04:59 |
| r00723r0 | damntourists, Sturmeh, www.gnome-look.org has some good metacity themes. | 04:59 |
| r00723r0 | drivetrax, yes it is. | 04:59 |
| Sturmeh | damntourists um gnomelook was it? | 04:59 |
| tritium | paulcross: not the final release of it | 04:59 |
| jim_beam | thechris: i have seen a lot of bugs and updates for the first 4 days were numerous | 05:00 |
| Gary_inNYC | damntourists: have you checked gnome-look.org ? | 05:00 |
| drivetrax | it is gnome | 05:00 |
| amirman84 | r00723r0: thats what i was saying, i dont think his problem is 3D capabilities | 05:00 |
| r00723r0 | drivetrax, gtk-window-decorator has Compiz features. | 05:00 |
| Behfar | r007234r0, when i try to write the changes to the xorg it says "Can't open file for writing" | 05:00 |
| Lincooled | Gary_inNYC: do you want a shortcut ? | 05:00 |
| Sturmeh | damntourists http://www.gnome-look.org/index.php?xcontentmode=102 | 05:00 |
| r00723r0 | Behfar, you need "sudo" before that nano. | 05:00 |
| r00723r0 | I'm sorry. | 05:00 |
| drivetrax | r00723r0, in ccsm | 05:00 |
| gregbrady | Whitesox2007, I kid you not though, I put a frozen bag of whatever under the laptop if I have to really make it work for something critical. It works wonderfully! | 05:00 |
| damntourists | r00723r0: metacity? will that work even though i'm using compiz? lol, i'm still foggy on the whole ubuntu desktop customization | 05:00 |
| Gary_inNYC | Lincooled: i want rhythmbox to always open at the top left corner of my desktop | 05:00 |
| Schiz0|SD | What would cause NO network interfaces (Other than loopback) to show up? lspci DOES show my two network drives, and their proper names. But there are no interfaces in "ifconfig -a" | 05:00 |
| damntourists | wow i wasn't expecting so many responses, thanks everyone | 05:00 |
| r00723r0 | damntourists, it's not quite metacity - it's gtk-window-decorator. But it functions the same as metacity. | 05:00 |
| amirman84 | behfar: you have to get privileges to write to xorg.conf | 05:00 |
| thechris | !network-install | 05:00 |
| ubottu | Factoid network-install not found | 05:00 |
| Whitesox2007 | XD, i just got out a sandwich bag to put ice in it | 05:00 |
| leftheart | ok i still have an issue with my font being like 500 in wine..only when i am trying to config it. and its in like triples and quads when i try and install programs ANY HELP? | 05:00 |
| drivetrax | CCSM / compiz is in Advanced destop settings | 05:00 |
| nix-newbie | damntourists, when you have compiz, you cant run metacity, I think... | 05:01 |
| r00723r0 | damntourists, metacity is a window manager, while gtk-window-decorator is a window decorator. | 05:01 |

| Whitesox2007 | i might switch to peas though | 05:01 |
| damntourists | ok | 05:01 |
| r00723r0 | damntourists, compiz is a window manager. | 05:01 |
| beginwebgui | i upgraded to 8.10 . but after restart.. X server didn't load .. it shows.. failed to load modules "kdb"... anyone knows the problem.. | 05:01 |
| r00723r0 | I personally don't like emerald. | 05:01 |
| damntourists | r00723r0: so the graphics on the title bar, buttons, etc, have nothing to do with compiz? | 05:01 |
| amirman84 | behfar: if you want to make changes to it open it from your terminal with "gksudo gedit /etc/x11/xorg.conf"' | 05:01 |
| SeaPhor | r00723r0, or he could try gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf ? | 05:01 |
| drivetrax | me either | 05:01 |
| thechris | anyone know the "install from network" !cmd | 05:01 |
| Whitesox2007 | web | 05:01 |
| r00723r0 | damntourists, not directly. | 05:01 |
| gregbrady | Whitesox2007, or a nice soup.....after you are done installing you will have a nicely heated meal! | 05:01 |
| Whitesox2007 | you're like alot of people | 05:01 |
| r00723r0 | SeaPhor, he doesn't have any X environment. | 05:01 |
| damntourists | r00723r0: thanks, that helps... i'll check out emerald too | 05:01 |
| Whitesox2007 | i do have a fix though, too bad i didn't get it before i reformatted | 05:01 |
| Gary_inNYC | Lincooled: it's annoying because i keep using super+numpad to put rhythmbox back where i want it when it should start where I last left it when it was closed | 05:02 |
| r00723r0 | damntourists, many themes are available for emerald as well on www.gnome-look.org. | 05:02 |
| SeaPhor | r00723r0, none? wow | 05:02 |
| r00723r0 | SeaPhor, none. | 05:02 |
| r00723r0 | Which is why we're doing this. | 05:02 |
| DIFTOW | I have a quick question :O | 05:02 |
| sc006 | try reseting x to vesa so you can get your desktop back | 05:02 |
| r00723r0 | DIFTOW, don't ask to ask, just ask. | 05:02 |
| damntourists | thanks r00723r0 :) | 05:02 |
| nix-newbie | damntourists, i already tried, youll have to go hunt down all your themes manually I didnt get any preinstalled ones, kinda sucked | 05:02 |
| gregbrady | Whitesox2007, I agree 100%. It is a very big pain. My Compaq runs so hot its serves double duty as a space heater. | 05:02 |
| Sturmeh | yeah damntourists compiz is a DWM and emerald is a DECORATOR, it goes well together enjoy | 05:02 |
| r00723r0 | damntourists, :) | 05:02 |
| Lincooled | yes i know i have the same problem with my text editor | 05:02 |

| Whitesox2007 | how would you do that sc006? | 05:02 |
| Whitesox2007 | just incse the worst? XD | 05:03 |
| r00723r0 | SeaPhor, some ATI card. | 05:03 |
| r00723r0 | Which is prone to disaster in Linux. | 05:03 |
| CSHARPER2 | Is there a compatible Ubuntu/Linux TV turner with cablecard support? If there are options is there any consensus on what the best one might be? | 05:03 |
| r00723r0 | Behfar, you still around? | 05:03 |
| damntourists | nix-newbie: that's ok, i like it better that way... i'm not a huge fan of pre made themes, i like putting together my own little elements | 05:03 |
| Gary_inNYC | Lincooled: i saw there was a "Place" plugin in compiz fusion settings, but it doesn't seem to work for me | 05:03 |
| r00723r0 | tritium, you should ban by nickname instead of host. | 05:03 |
| calc | CSHARPER2: there is only one cablecard device in existence period (afaik) and no its not linux compatible | 05:03 |
| vboyz | i have a doubt | 05:03 |
| tritium | r00723r0: no | 05:03 |
| vboyz | regarding | 05:03 |
| vboyz | dispaly | 05:03 |
| SeaPhor | r00723r0, i hate ATI, cou;d give volumes of stories as to why | 05:03 |
| r00723r0 | tritium, he should be able to come back with a different nick. If it's offensive again then ban by host. | 05:03 |
| vboyz | any one can help me | 05:03 |
| vboyz | i am using | 05:03 |
| r00723r0 | SeaPhor, ATI isn't the best, and AMD hasn't helped much. | 05:03 |
| Gary_inNYC | Lincooled: or at least I don't know exactly how to use it for rhythmbox | 05:03 |
| vboyz | 8500 | 05:03 |
| Lincooled | i will try that | 05:03 |
| tritium | r00723r0: please don't tell us how to do our job. We've been doing it a long time. | 05:03 |
| damntourists | isnt there like... an apt-get install emerald-themes or something? | 05:03 |
| calc | CSHARPER2: its the ATI one that you have to buy with a new Windows Media Center machine | 05:04 |
| amirman84 | seaphor: i used to hate that my ATI didnt work well with any linux but now it works miracles for me | 05:04 |
| r00723r0 | tritium, I am not; I'm merely suggesting. | 05:04 |
| nix-newbie | DIFTOW, the easy version - settle all dependancies and then enter a terminal and navigate to the sourcode directory and run the following: "./configure" "make" "sudo make install" | 05:04 |
| r00723r0 | tritium, it's a humble suggestion. | 05:04 |

| jim_beam | i love my ati to | 05:04 |
| r00723r0 | hcyeong, you have a few ways of doing that. | 05:04 |
| CSHARPER2 | Calc: Ok, that was the only one I could find searching. | 05:04 |
| Aaron_Mason | hcyeong, sudo <command> | 05:04 |
| r00723r0 | hcyeong, through graphics, you'll want gksu <command> | 05:05 |
| r00723r0 | If you're in a terminal, use sudo. | 05:05 |
| gregbrady | Whitesox2007, I agree! My ATI gives me way less problems then my Broadcom wireless!!!!! | 05:05 |
| r00723r0 | gregbrady, heh. | 05:05 |
| calc | CSHARPER2: yea i think that is the only one available | 05:05 |
| Lincooled | Gary_inNYC: in compiz fusion manager --> place window --> fixed window placement ? | 05:05 |
| hcyeong | r007: sudo ?? | 05:06 |
| r00723r0 | hcyeong, sudo <command>. | 05:06 |
| Gary_inNYC | Lincooled: exactly that | 05:06 |
| r00723r0 | hcyeong, that runs it as superuser. | 05:06 |
| Lincooled | it doesn't work for you ? | 05:06 |
| drivetrax | thing is.. "if" they got the pre-release drivers, then why didn't 8.4 driver work when they said it would work.. in my Gutsy? | 05:06 |
| hcyeong | just type sudo? | 05:06 |
| r00723r0 | hcyeong, but if the application is windowed, use gksu <command>. | 05:06 |
| calc | CSHARPER2: looks like you can find them on ebay though, so if you want to write a driver ;-) | 05:06 |
| r00723r0 | hcyeong, no, the command goes after sudo. | 05:06 |
| SeaPhor | r00723r0, if you need, i am also in #SeaPhor | 05:06 |
| nix-newbie | DIFTOW, i cant pm, not registered, lets stick to the open forum | 05:06 |
| r00723r0 | Thanks. | 05:06 |
| sc006 | <Whitesox2007> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 05:06 |
| amirman84 | hceyeong: if your using terminal to open a graphical app you should use gksudo instead of sudo | 05:06 |
| drivetrax | And.. where are the previous drivers.. for linux and ATI | 05:06 |
| Gary_inNYC | Lincooled: it either doesn't work for me, or I don't know how to use it | 05:06 |

| Sturmeh | damntourists, that's an emerald theme, just install emerald and import it | 05:09 |
| Styles | Could that be an issue? | 05:09 |
| amirman84 | styles: did you defrag your windows drive? | 05:09 |
| r00723r0 | Styles, it's probably all partitioned. | 05:09 |
| drivetrax | navjeet, - are you in FireFox? | 05:09 |
| hcyeong | ok | 05:09 |
| damntourists | Sturmeh: ok i'll try | 05:09 |
| r00723r0 | Styles, which is why Ubuntu need to repartition. | 05:09 |
| Styles | No, its not partitioned at all. | 05:09 |
| calc | CSHARPER2: thats what cablecard is for..... | 05:09 |
| Sturmeh | damntourists, "sudo apt-get install emerald" | 05:10 |
| r00723r0 | Styles, you said only 27.5 gigs available... | 05:10 |
| Styles | yeah haha | 05:10 |
| Styles | ive got like.. 12321 things on there. | 05:10 |
| r00723r0 | That means it's partitioned. | 05:10 |
| werther | hi, | 05:10 |
| amirman84 | styles: my ubuntu is running on a 25 GB partition, no problems at all | 05:10 |
| r00723r0 | Even if it has only one partition. | 05:10 |
| CSHARPER2 | calc: but does not allow it, if it is not possible to use it. | 05:10 |
| navjeet | i do have firfox, but the problem is there without that running also | 05:10 |
| jim_beam | Styles: vista or xp with ubuntu | 05:10 |
| Sturmeh | damntourists, then press ALT+F2 and type "emerald --replace" once it's intalled | 05:10 |
| damntourists | Sturmeh: ok | 05:10 |
| MP2E | Hello, I'm VERY pleased with ubuntu 8.04... it rocks... one thing though... is it possible to convert Windows General Midi to a Timidity patch for Ubuntu? | 05:10 |
| javaTN | hmm | 05:10 |
| Styles | I've never defraged the drive | 05:10 |
| damntourists | Sturmeh: will it always replace after that? | 05:10 |
| nix-newbie | DIFTOW, http://howto.wired.com/wiki/Compile_Software_from_Source_Code | 05:10 |
| calc | CSHARPER2: just under linux, i doubt you will get far with any lawsuit :) | 05:10 |
| Styles | I'm going to over night. | 05:10 |
| javaTN | is this the same ubuntu # as the one on irc.ubuntu | 05:10 |
| javaTN | ? | 05:10 |
| Sturmeh | damntourists, you can import the theme from ur desktop or w/e from the emerald manager | 05:10 |
| Styles | Could that possibly solve it? | 05:10 |
| drivetrax | navjeet, - we cannot guess... what you have there, tell what vid card, and monitor, and version of Linux.. | 05:11 |
| Sturmeh | damntourists, yes aslong as you load compiz, it will load emerald too | 05:11 |
| sc006 | though you cant start x | 05:11 |
| Whitesox2007 | What's your problem again Styles? | 05:11 |
| r00723r0 | Styles, yes. BTW: please highlight me if you're talking to me; I can't filter through this noise easily. | 05:11 |
| damntourists | Sturmeh: awesome, thank you it's working now | 05:11 |
| calc | CSHARPER2: i'm pretty sure the open access stuff wrt cablecard was written such that the stuff using it has to be 'approved' | 05:11 |

| Boohbah | javaTN: obviously it's not, since we are on freenode | 05:11 |
| amirman84 | styles: you HAVE TO defrag the drive before resizing any partitions, that most probably is the problem, you could have totally Fed your drive up | 05:11 |

| Styles | r00723r0, I'm going to get a shit load of stuff wrong, Ive played with Ubuntu for all of a few hours | 05:21 |
| OzFalcon | MP2e yeah, I was playing some midi files, And they sound pretty bad. | 05:21 |
| Styles | r00723r0, yeah.. Because they should really add QNext | 05:21 |
| kodmaster | sturmeh: no, i can't get any signal lights on back of motherboard saying it is even connected, or even any on the router | 05:21 |

| temagic | Sturmeh: ok, I'll wait for an update then. thanks | 05:21 |
| r00723r0 | Styles, I'm completely lost. | 05:21 |
| vboyz | Sturmeh: can i chat with you personlay | 05:21 |
| Sturmeh | temagic if you find a solution please inform me, i have the same problem | 05:21 |
| nix-newbie | temagic: you might want to do a quick google lookup but i think you have to add "auto" to part of your fstab file in /etc | 05:21 |
| amirman84 | hydrogen: people say openoffice.org is better than gnome office but i think that is a load and a half | 05:21 |
| Sturmeh | vboyz pm me | 05:21 |
| Styles | r00723r0, Okay, You know under applications? Add or Remove. There is a big list you can search for things. | 05:21 |
| r00723r0 | Styles, yes? | 05:22 |
| vboyz | Sturmeh : ok...thanks | 05:22 |
| AprilHare | hello - I have just upgraded my motherboard and processor; I previously had Ubuntu installed on a SATA harddisk and I believed it booted using grub from an IDE harddisk; however I've dumped the IDE harddisk. How do I make the SATA harddisk boot? | 05:22 |
| temagic | nix-newbie: that was greek to me:) | 05:22 |
| Styles | r00723r0, where do they come from? How would you add a program to that crazy list. | 05:22 |
| r00723r0 | Styles, ahh! | 05:22 |
| thomas_ | VOTE: what is everyones favorite terminal app? im a gnome-console fan-boy... its simple, but i also like xterm. | 05:22 |
| Styles | r00723r0, yeah hahaha | 05:22 |
| r00723r0 | Styles, those programs are from a repository. | 05:22 |
| r00723r0 | Styles, you'd want to talk to upstream. | 05:22 |
| Sturmeh | vboyz you registered your nick name on this irc server yet? | 05:22 |
| Styles | r00723r0, ooo Only open source? | 05:22 |
| kodmaster | sturmeh: no, i can't get any signal lights on back of motherboard saying it is even connected, or even any on the router | 05:22 |
| darkblueB | I have a vncserver connection.. its a blank gray screen with a single terminal on it.. I would like to start Gnome | 05:22 |
| r00723r0 | Styles, yes, in free and universe. | 05:22 |
| r00723r0 | Which are repos. | 05:22 |
| OzFalcon | MP2E, I have tried qsynth - (fluidsynth frontent), But couldnt get it to work. (fluidsynth has two different sound fonts available to use) | 05:22 |
| Sturmeh | not sure then kodmaster, my ethernet cabled works ootb for hardy even | 05:22 |
| Styles | r00723r0, Ahh okay so then this program doesn't belong its not open source ;) | 05:23 |
| nix-newbie | temagic: go to a terminal and type in "sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.old" | 05:23 |
| r00723r0 | Styles, I'm sorry, free and restricted. | 05:23 |
| amirman84 | styles: you can enable 3rd party repositories in software sources under administration | 05:23 |
| MP2E | OzFalcon - What is it? | 05:23 |
| thomas_ | the conversion in here is so intellectual its so amusing. | 05:23 |
| Sturmeh | nix-newbie i need to know this :P | 05:23 |
| hydrogen | amirman84: disclaim: I am obviously biased based on my afiliations.. but it seems clear to me that if an application is created with the primary goal of "copying that other application" then it never will be as good, as its always playing catchup | 05:23 |
| MP2E | OzFalcon - just another sound patch? | 05:23 |
| Styles | amirman84, is it recommened? | 05:23 |
| r00723r0 | Styles, universe and multiverse are closed-source AFAIK. | 05:23 |
| nix-newbie | temagic: next, type in "sudo nano /etc/fstab" | 05:23 |
| Styles | r00723r0, o.0 | 05:23 |
| r00723r0 | Styles, but a lot of great applications are there. | 05:23 |
| Sturmeh | nix-newbie pm | 05:23 |
| r00723r0 | Styles, a LOT. Including games. | 05:23 |
| Styles | r00723r0, last thing, Can I defrag the hard drive while I'm running Linux? Or do I have to have Windows *GAH* | 05:23 |
| Styles | k | 05:24 |
| nix-newbie | Sturmeh: I cant pm, not registered | 05:24 |
| r00723r0 | Styles, you won't need to defrag a Linux drive. | 05:24 |
| temagic | nix-newbie: ok.... | 05:24 |
| Sturmeh | yo too nix-newbie? | 05:24 |
| OzFalcon | MP2E, It's a player as far as I can tell. Like timidity I guess. (But timidity plays very poorly - ie do anything on the machine and it kills the audio smoothness) | 05:24 |
| Sturmeh | :( | 05:24 |
| jack-desktop | when i try to open gnome-session-properties i get "could not connect to the session manager", what should i do | 05:24 |
| thomas_ | Styl,es the last thing u want is to do anything on windows. thats a recipe for disaster! | 05:24 |
| Styles | r00723r0, I know but I have to before I install it. Ubuntu was getting mad at partioning it. | 05:24 |
| AprilHare | can you repartition and install grub on a linux harddisk though? | 05:24 |
| Styles | r00723r0, and I butchered the word haha | 05:24 |
| r00723r0 | Styles, I don't remember if there are any defragging programs in Linux. | 05:24 |
| drivetrax | ya kno.. I have a drive with 98 on it.. thinking, triple boot | 05:24 |
| r00723r0 | For NTFS/FAT. | 05:24 |
| amirman84 | hydrogen: i didn't think of it as an application trying to copy another but as an application copying the features of another, i guess that sounds like very little difference but it also means they can copy some features but still be different and independent | 05:24 |
| Sturmeh | Styles EXT3 is superior to NTFS, it does not need defragmenting. | 05:24 |
| r00723r0 | Styles, it would be best to use the Windows defrag anyways. | 05:24 |
| r00723r0 | Sturmeh, it does, but not nearly as much. | 05:25 |
| Sturmeh | hehe ofcause | 05:25 |
| hydrogen | amirman84: except it isn't | 05:25 |
| * AprilHare ponders his boot problem | 05:25 | |
| Sturmeh | excuse me for exaggerating | 05:25 |
| Sturmeh | which boot problem AprilHare | 05:25 |
| Styles | r00723r0, okay | 05:25 |
| nix-newbie | temagic: once you have fstab open, look for the line about your ntfs partition | 05:25 |
| Gary_inNYC | anyone else notice that when you fill in a workgroup name in manual network configuration, sudo ceases to work, and gives a "cannot resolve host" error? | 05:25 |
| hydrogen | "Exaile is a music player aiming to be similar to KDE's Amarok, but for GTK+ and written in Python" | 05:25 |
| Styles | Sturmeh, I'm using NTFS right now, I don't want to reformat will this be an issue? | 05:25 |
| amirman84 | styles: its one of the first things i did, all those apps are safe, they are still checked by ubuntu | 05:25 |
| r00723r0 | hydrogen, I love Python and GTK+. | 05:25 |
| Sturmeh | hydrogen exaile pwnz * | 05:25 |
| drivetrax | na.. it would be best to slap that drive back and piece together that machine, and network it into Ubuntu | 05:25 |
| AprilHare | Sturmeh, upgraded my motherboard and processor. dumped my ide harddisk, left the sata harddisk with ubuntu. but ubuntu won't boot. | 05:25 |
| Styles | amirman84, okay :D | 05:26 |
| amirman84 | hydrogen: key word: similar | 05:26 |
| Sturmeh | Styles ubuntu needs to be installed onto EXT3, so space must be made for it. | 05:26 |
| r00723r0 | No. | 05:26 |
| Sturmeh | AprilHare you need to reinstall grub to the bootloader | 05:26 |
| Styles | Sturmeh, I don't understand is EXT3 A file format? (NTFS ect..) | 05:26 |
| r00723r0 | Ubuntu can be installed on more than EXT3. | 05:26 |
| hydrogen | amirman84: -:> where similar ends up being all the same functionality with a much clunkier ui | 05:26 |
| r00723r0 | Styles, EXT3 is a partition format. | 05:26 |
| nix-newbie | temagic: in the fourth column from the left, add ",auto" (note the comma) to the end of whatever is there | 05:26 |
| Styles | r00723r0, Okay. | 05:26 |
| temagic | nix-newbie: how can I identity which line it is? in "my computer" the name of the drive is "Fredrik" - in fstab there is no "Fredrik" | 05:26 |
| MP2E | brb | 05:26 |
| Styles | r00723r0, Can Windows run this too? | 05:26 |
| sc006 | does any body rtm or google lol | 05:26 |
| AprilHare | Sturmeh, i can boot off a ubuntu cd i have here - how do I install grub? | 05:27 |
| hydrogen | http://www.exaile.org/screenshots/7/exaile_large.jpg is missing all of the polish that made amarok work | 05:27 |
| r00723r0 | Styles, Windows only runs NTFS or FAT. | 05:27 |
| amirman84 | hydrogen: i don't know where you're getting "clunky" from | 05:27 |
| Styles | r00723r0, hahahah retard windows.. Okay | 05:27 |
| Sturmeh | AprilHare one sec | 05:27 |
| r00723r0 | Styles, Linux can be run off of NTFS AFAIK. | 05:27 |
| Styles | r00723r0, Humm and Ubuntu should have no problems with sata drives right? | 05:27 |
| Sturmeh | AprilHare i take you have already changed the boot order to boot off your SATA hdd, correct? | 05:27 |
| drivetrax | Vista can read ext | 05:27 |
| r00723r0 | Styles, none. | 05:27 |
| hydrogen | but, as I said, I'm biased | 05:27 |
| Styles | r00723r0, Unbutu too? Or no. | 05:27 |
| alex_mayorga | vboyz: do you actually see the video, but it looks bad? | 05:27 |
| r00723r0 | Should not have any problems. | 05:27 |
| nix-newbie | temagic: /etc is a directory on your hard disk | 05:27 |
| r00723r0 | Styles, but, there will be a problem or two, of rouce. | 05:27 |
| AprilHare | Sturmeh, my mobo took care of that automagically | 05:27 |
| Sturmeh | drivetrax you need a driver first, EX2 IFS works | 05:27 |
| r00723r0 | *course | 05:27 |
| quentusrex | Anyone here into building embedded systems? | 05:27 |
| drivetrax | yes | 05:28 |
| Sturmeh | AprilHare so it's giving you what error? | 05:28 |
| hydrogen | I'm also using amarok2 full time, so I'm even more biased :) | 05:28 |
| Aaron_Mason | quentusrex, its something I'm interested in | 05:28 |
| amirman84 | styles: ext3 is a file system, its how the files are stored and read from the hard drive, windows xp and vista use NTFS as a filesystem | 05:28 |
| AprilHare | Sturmeh, none. it just goes on forever | 05:28 |
| nix-newbie | Sturmeh: how are you doing on this so far? | 05:28 |
| Styles | amirman84, Why dont they use ext3? | 05:28 |
| darkblueB | ??ext3 | 05:28 |
| Styles | r00723r0, Should I just reformat completely and start over? | 05:28 |
| r00723r0 | Styles, if you want... I don't know your motives. | 05:28 |
| amirman84 | styles: why are you reformatting? | 05:28 |
| AprilHare | Sturmeh, although i didn't test it forever i could wait for an error :) | 05:28 |
| drivetrax | I think, winders should use.. cause they do support osx | 05:28 |
| Styles | amirman84, to dual boot windows / ubuntu | 05:29 |
| quentusrex | I'm looking for recommendations on irc channels, websites, and other embedded systems communities. | 05:29 |
| Styles | r00723r0, hehe tru haha | 05:29 |
| vboyz | Sturmeh: from where codecs are avilable | 05:29 |
| temagic | nix-newbie: when I go to places, computer, I have a cd-rom, a drive named "Vista" a drive named "Fredrik" and a "File System"... I want to automount the "Fredrik" | 05:29 |
| Sturmeh | AprilHare http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351&highlight=grub <-- try that? | 05:29 |
| kaje | What port do you have to open up for the ubuntu remote desktop feature? | 05:29 |
| AprilHare | Sturmeh, i'll mosey on down and have a look | 05:29 |
| nix-newbie | temagic: so you are in fstab right now? | 05:29 |
| temagic | yes | 05:29 |
| vboyz | vboyz: Sturmeh: from where codecs are avilable ?? | 05:29 |
| Sturmeh | vboyz i'm not sure why it's low quality, but it' seems to be working | 05:29 |
| Sturmeh | vboyz maybe it's your graphics drivers | 05:30 |
| Styles | amirman84, Okay thanks I'm off! | 05:30 |
| alex_mayorga | !divx > vboyz | 05:30 |
| Styles | r00723r0, Thank You! Ill be back tomorrow! | 05:30 |
| Sturmeh | !divx | 05:30 |
| Styles | Thank You All! | 05:30 |
| amirman84 | styles: you should just defrag your windows, and resize the partitions, i use ubuntu on a 25 GB partition, with ubuntu you can still access all your files on your windows partition (like movies, music and all that) so you don't need so much space | 05:30 |
| ubottu | For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats | 05:30 |
| r00723r0 | Styles, :) | 05:30 |
| Styles | amidaniel|away, Okay | 05:30 |
| temagic | nix-newbie: yes, using nano | 05:30 |
| Sturmeh | there vboyz | 05:30 |
| alex_mayorga | vboyz: check the message from ubottu please | 05:30 |
| Styles | amirman84, The thing is, I don't know why I only have this much space I should have like 50 gigs lol or so I though.. | 05:30 |
| nix-newbie | temagic: ok look for a line with something along the lines of /mount/Fredrik or /mediaFredrik | 05:30 |
| OzFalcon | MP2E | 05:31 |
| temagic | nix-newbie: no such thing | 05:31 |
| darkblueB | I have a Gnome running already.. this vncserver connection to X11 is a 2nd connection.. the OReilly book on learning Debian starts by saying things about copying/modifying my /etc/X11 session info.. I dont want to screw that up | 05:31 |
| alex_mayorga | does anyone know how to update to Firefox nightly build? | 05:31 |
| OzFalcon | MP2E if you get fluidsynth working, Let me know | 05:31 |
| amirman84 | styles: if you bought your computer from DELL or another big company, they put a lot of their own stuff on your drive in different partitions, maybe thats what it is....?? | 05:31 |
| Sturmeh | Styles you are using "unallocated space" to install ubuntu, not windows "free space" | 05:31 |
| temagic | nix-newbie: there's a media/cd-rom | 05:31 |
| nix-newbie | temagic: ok then we will ad a new line | 05:31 |
| darkblueB | meanwhile - the wxWidgets things are launching fine.. which makes X11 useful enough to move forward | 05:31 |
| insomnia_ | anyone know how to get a built in cam to work... using a sony vaio laptop not sure what model | 05:31 |
| darkblueB | no one tried to answer my question | 05:31 |
| darkblueB | anyway | 05:31 |
| alex_mayorga | insomnia, try to install cheese | 05:32 |
| Styles | Sturmeh, I don't know. I just have a normal drive. No partions. I'm trying to allow ubuntu to create one to install | 05:32 |
| Styles | amirman84, no I built it. I'm using this as a server for home. | 05:32 |
| nix-newbie | temagic: first we need to look up what partition windows is on, go to a new terminal and type in "fdisk -l" | 05:32 |
| darkblueB | hint- dont format your CD-Rom.. you will be waiting a very long time | 05:32 |
| insomnia_ | alex_mayorga: what exactly does that do? | 05:32 |
| temagic | nix-newbie: fdisk - l did nothing... | 05:32 |
| alex_mayorga | insomnia_: it's a little program to take pictures with the built in camera on your laptop | 05:33 |
| amirman84 | styles: you will want to check that out, one thing i would recommend is going to your terminal and typing "man fdisk" and figure out how to use that to see whats going on | 05:33 |
| nix-newbie | temagic: crap, hold on a sec then | 05:33 |
| roxahris | Hey, how do I get MIDI support? | 05:33 |
| Styles | amirman84, okay | 05:33 |
| momelod | greetings ubuntu friends | 05:33 |
| roxahris | I want to be able to play MIDI files. | 05:33 |
| qwiksand | hello all, new help with a cordless tablet that i just bought, i'm using ubuntu 8.04, on the box it says vista and mac..do u think it can work on ubuntu? | 05:33 |
| Styles | amidaniel|away, Yeah Ill read the manual :) | 05:33 |
| navjeet | drivetrax: where do i save trident.h file, there are 3 of those on the current system | 05:33 |
| temagic | found it... "Fredrik" is /dev/sda5 | 05:34 |
| yang__ | ll; | 05:34 |
| nix-newbie | temagic: do you have gparted? | 05:34 |
| temagic | nix-newbie: found it. "Fredrik" is /dev/sda5 | 05:34 |
| Styles | amirman84, wow this gives you really technical information haha | 05:34 |
| alex_mayorga | insomnia_: you can learn more at http://www.gnome.org/projects/cheese | 05:34 |
| amirman84 | styles: "fdisk -l" will give you detailed info on your partitions | 05:34 |
| Styles | amirman84, okay | 05:34 |
| temagic | nix-newbie: not sure if I have gparted | 05:34 |
| insomnia_ | alex_mayorga: anything to take videos? | 05:34 |
| nix-newbie | temagic: disregard the thong on gparted | 05:35 |
| Styles | amirman84, Thanks yeah it doesn't work haha I think becaues I'm running off the CD :P | 05:35 |
| nix-newbie | thing* | 05:35 |
| nix-newbie | freudian slip :P | 05:35 |
| Jack3 | is there a command to find all mountable drives on a system | 05:35 |
| temagic | nix-newbie: tried it. it was the same as I was running:) | 05:35 |
| Jack3 | like shows what /dev/ they are? | 05:35 |
| Sturmeh | Styles just be careful and backup all ur data. | 05:35 |
| alex_mayorga | insomnia_: cheese does video too | 05:35 |
| Styles | Jack3, yes | 05:35 |
| nix-newbie | Jack3: try fdisk -l | 05:35 |
| insomnia_ | alex_mayorga: cool thanks alot :D | 05:35 |
| thebigham | How do i completely remove xubuntu?? | 05:35 |
| amirman84 | styles: yeah, its trying to read the partitions on the cd :) | 05:35 |
| ChatterboX_ | hello | 05:35 |
| momelod | i just upgraded to 8.04 and found that the mythtv-frontend package is incompatible with the mythtv-backend package im running on a separate machine. How can i downgrade mythtv-frontend package? | 05:35 |
| llin-ubuntu | i've had 8.04 since the release date and still no updates. is that normal? back with gutsy we had updates almost daily | 05:36 |
| Styles | Sturmeh, Theres nothign I would kill myself over on here. Just make me very annoyed. Most stuff thats worth anything has been eathier released or.. on another drive already. | 05:36 |
| damntourists | k so my title bars on my windows dissapeared, anyone have any suggestions? | 05:36 |
| Sturmeh | nix-newbie can u link me to automount instructions? | 05:36 |
| neil_d | is there anyone using a netcomm rave III USB modem with Ubuntu ? | 05:36 |
| ChatterboX_ | can a hardware that says vista on the box work on ubuntu 8.04? | 05:36 |
| amirman84 | llin-ubuntu: i've had updates a few times, a big one last night | 05:36 |
| alex_mayorga | insomnia_: it's fairly new stuff, so YMMV | 05:36 |
| Sturmeh | Styles is reformatting the whole drive feasible then? | 05:36 |
| Styles | amirman84, last thing then I have to go, how does well does Ubuntu work leaving it on all the time? | 05:36 |
| Dr_willis | ChatterboX_, totally depends on the hardware. and if it has linux support. | 05:36 |
| sc006 | <temagic> sudo fdisk -l | 05:36 |
| Styles | Sturmeh, Yes if defraging doesn't work. | 05:36 |
| kassah-lappy | bah... so my problem with the livecd has been isolated so far to I can run the livecd once... and everytime thereafter... it dumps me to the initramfs prompt | 05:36 |
| nix-newbie | temagic: now we need to make a folder to mount your windows partition to | 05:36 |
| amirman84 | styles: amazingly | 05:36 |
| llin-ubuntu | i haven't had any at all | 05:36 |
| Sturmeh | Styles just backup, defrag and resize the partition | 05:36 |
| Styles | amirman84, Thats my whole thing | 05:37 |
| lvzimmer | has anybory installed hardy in a notebook hp? | 05:37 |
| temagic | nix-newbie: ok... | 05:37 |
| Sturmeh | in the worst case scenario, you have lost data you backed up | 05:37 |
| kassah-lappy | It worked once for amd64 and once for i386 | 05:37 |
| Styles | Sturmeh, Okay by resize you mean let Ubuntu do it right on startup? | 05:37 |
| Sturmeh | um, yes | 05:37 |
| Styles | Sturmeh, Becaue I don't know how manually haha | 05:37 |
| Styles | kk | 05:37 |
| kassah-lappy | does anyone know if the livecd stores anything to hardware? | 05:37 |
| Styles | Im going to go thanks guys | 05:37 |
| Sturmeh | I do it manually because i use a fresh hdd | 05:37 |
| nix-newbie | temagic: type into a new prompt "sudo mkdir /media/windows" | 05:37 |
| ChatterboX_ | Dr_willis so how do i know if it has linux support, it never said that on the box | 05:37 |
| temagic | sc006: thanks... the sudo thing did it | 05:37 |
| alex_mayorga | lvzimmer: I've had | 05:37 |
| amirman84 | styles: if your using ubuntu as a server type thing that you dont want to get on all the time, you'll want to set it up to update automatically without asking in SOFTWARE SOURCES | 05:38 |
| sc006 | <temagic> yeppers | 05:38 |
| cmw72 | I really really need nelp ... i screwed up xorg.conf and I can only use a tiny portion of my monitor now ... i can only see the top third of my screen | 05:38 |
| Dr_willis | ChatterboX_, google and the internet is our friend. Its a rare bit of hardware that will actually state linux on a box. | 05:38 |
| cmw72 | i can't even see what i'm typing | 05:38 |
| amirman84 | peace styles | 05:38 |
| navjeet | drivetrax: r u there? | 05:38 |
| temagic | nix-newbie: done | 05:38 |
| cmw72 | the top half of my screen is garbage | 05:38 |
| lvzimmer | alex_mayorga: did have any problem? | 05:38 |

| insomnia_ | alex_mayorga: sorry to bother again, but cheese is really laggy on my computer.. and doesnt display anything.. it just gives me a distorted fuz in the vid/pic window | 05:38 |
| alex_mayorga | ChatterboX_: if it works, then it has support :) | 05:38 |
| ChatterboX_ | Dr_willis i dont know how to install drivers from a cd | 05:38 |
| insomnia_ | alex_mayorga: now completely froze | 05:38 |
| nix-newbie | temagic: now go back to fstab, and enter the following: /dev/sda5 /media/windows ntfs user,auto 0 0 | 05:39 |
| alex_mayorga | lvzimmer: not really, but they have dozens of models | 05:39 |
| ChatterboX_ | alex_mayorga: what do u mean? | 05:39 |
| cmw72 | is there a way to force ubuntu to redect my monitor / video card? | 05:39 |
| brent113 | kassah-lappy, to answer your question, yes, someone knows if the livecd will store to your hard drive. The answer to what you really meant however is only if you choose to write something to the drive. It can easily be used without making changes to the hardware | 05:39 |
| vboyz | Sturmeh: it all video files are working for me....but..all are poor quality....but....that files works better in my windows....i dont know what is the problem with linux | 05:39 |
| alex_mayorga | !X | 05:39 |
| ubottu | The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type « sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart » in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto | 05:39 |
| fde | cmw72: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 05:39 |
| Sturmeh | vboyz video card drivers? | 05:39 |
| sc006 | <cmw72> sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 05:39 |
| kassah-lappy | brent113: so nothing automatically writes to the hardware? | 05:39 |
| vboyz | Sturmeh: have 8500 GT | 05:39 |
| brent113 | kassah-lappy, that is correct | 05:40 |
| temagic | nix-newbie: I can call the folder Data or Fredrik instead of windows, and just substitute "windows" for Data or Fredrik in fstab? | 05:40 |
| lvzimmer | alex_mayorga: I tied the beta but I couldn't pass from step 3/7, it restart x server... | 05:40 |
| vboyz | Sturmeh: i think the driver automatically detected by ubuntu | 05:40 |
| gregbrady | What is the easiest to setup and use virtual machine manager? | 05:40 |
| nix-newbie | temagic: slight adjustment, put in user,auto,noexec | 05:40 |
| vboyz | Sturmeh: is it correct | 05:40 |
| llin-ubuntu | oh what the hell, my important security updates were checked off... no wonder I wasn't getting updates | 05:40 |
| alex_mayorga | lvzimmer, got nVidia card by any chance? | 05:40 |

| sc006 | <cmw72> hit alt-ctrl-f1 | 05:40 |
| sc006 | login | 05:40 |
| vboyz | Sturmeh: restricted drivers? that means | 05:41 |
| lvzimmer | alex_mayorga: yes, nvidia | 05:41 |
| Sturmeh | vboyz it means drivers written by vendors | 05:41 |
| nix-newbie | temagic: you have to name the folder whatever folder name you created in /media, i just use "windows" for convenience | 05:41 |
| alex_mayorga | insomnia_: sorry to hear that | 05:41 |
| vboyz | Sturmeh: i am new to linux | 05:41 |
| Sturmeh | vboyz what card do you have? | 05:41 |
| vboyz | Sturmeh: nVidia 8500 GT | 05:41 |
| sc006 | <cmw72> type sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop | 05:41 |
| sc006 | <cmw72> then sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 05:41 |
| Sturmeh | vboys try activating "Desktop Effects" on EXTRA | 05:41 |
| alex_mayorga | lvzimmer, try using "safe graphics" or something of like that | 05:41 |
| Sturmeh | vboyz that should force ubuntu to look for the real drivers | 05:42 |
| vboyz | Sturmeh: it is alos not working | 05:42 |
| lvzimmer | alex_mayorga: ok, thx | 05:42 |
| vboyz | Sturmeh: i tryed it | 05:42 |
| Sturmeh | vboyz it doesn't reccomend a driver? | 05:42 |
| temagic | nix-newbie: ok... added the line... now, how do I save the file? | 05:42 |
| fde | Sturmeh: vboyz: No, that means proprietary drivers that are actually supported by Ubuntu... | 05:42 |
| Sturmeh | fde i c | 05:42 |
| llin-ubuntu | i'm just curious, is there a channel dedicated to the latest new on ubuntu heron ? | 05:42 |
| nix-newbie | temagic: if you want to rename /media/windows to something else type in sudo mv /media/windows /media/WhatYou WantToCallIt | 05:42 |
| alex_mayorga | vboyz: the perils of living with proprietary technology :| | 05:42 |

| vboyz | Sturmeh: i have slow net connection | 05:43 |
| alex_mayorga | lvzimmer: maybe a good idea to query bugs.ubuntu.com with your laptop model and check if there are any known problems | 05:43 |
| vboyz | Sturmeh: take long time to download | 05:44 |
| Sturmeh | install the 8.04 release vboyz, i can't help you until then | 05:44 |
| ariqs | how do I use synaptic package manager to install an older version of a package? | 05:44 |
| fde | llin-ubuntu: what sort of information are you looking for? | 05:44 |
| nix-newbie | temagic: to delete a folder type in "rm -R FolderName | 05:44 |

| Sturmeh | ariqs go look in the menus, and click properties and disable specific versions then roll back | 05:44 |
| momelod | ariqs: find the package, then click paclage -> force version | 05:44 |
| nix-newbie | temagic: remember, whatever you name the folder, the entry in fstab has to match it | 05:44 |
| Sturmeh | do i know you kodmaster? | 05:44 |
| alex_mayorga | vboyz: no need to reinstall, just update | 05:44 |
| llin-ubuntu | new developments, bug fixes, discoveries in the operating system and ideas for changes | 05:45 |
| kodmaster | sturmeg i was talking to you earlier about k8u-x motherboard with no ethernet | 05:45 |
| Sturmeh | vboyz sorry, why did you install the beta then? maybe you should have been using Gutsy | 05:45 |
| Sturmeh | oh ok sorry kodmaster i c | 05:45 |
| alex_mayorga | when you get "no updates" then you're on the release | 05:45 |
| fde | llin-ubuntu: There are mailing lists for such topics... also #ubuntu+1 | 05:45 |
| vboyz | Sturmeh : how i can check my version | 05:45 |
| ariqs | momelod: i went to force version and it doesn't have any other versions to select | 05:45 |
| nix-newbie | temagic: after youre done adjusting everything, goto fstab and press Ctrl+X to exit, nano will ask if you want to save, say yes | 05:45 |
| gregbrady | Ok, from VirtualBox, can one install on os from a iso file without burning a cd? | 05:45 |

| cmw72 | sc006, ok ... that worked, though i typed your commands out of order | 05:46 |
| nix-newbie | temagic: if this doesnt work for whatever reason, remember you created a backup file, fstab.old | 05:46 |
| Sturmeh | alex_mayorga unless he is able to get frequent updates and bug fixes for a rlease, he should not be using an experimental build of an OS | 05:46 |
| sc006 | <cmw72> sorry bout that it did work out hough | 05:46 |
| Sturmeh | *release | 05:46 |

| ubottu | envyng is an updated version of the *UNSUPPORTED* envy package. It is now part of the ubuntu universe repository and has community support. As an early version, its results may vary but this should be used over the unsupported envy package. | 05:50 |
| llin-ubuntu | oh lol, didn't know that ...so they are the same | 05:50 |
| Sturmeh | sorry I can't help with wireless card/driver problems helix keep asking for help though | 05:50 |

| nix-newbie | temagic: glad to help | 05:51 |

| gregbrady | kovrt, laptop, right? | 05:52 |
| Sturmeh | which card? | 05:52 |
| Deepthought | cmw72: I'm not sure if it comes with nvidia-settings or not; check in system (or settings) menu for nvidia-settings after install; if not there, install it too with synaptic | 05:52 |
| ele | hello | 05:52 |
| Dr_willis | cookiemonster077, i can burn one dvd/cd in hardy.. then the drive becomes 'lost' and not seen by the system at all. :( | 05:52 |

| Deepthought | cmw72: it's in system menu | 05:53 |
| ChatterboX_ | can i use WINE to install windows drivers on ubuntu 8.04? | 05:53 |
| Sturmeh | AprilHare i got 8800GT | 05:53 |

| kovrt | yes AMD64 | 05:53 |
| Sturmeh | ChatterboX_ what sort? | 05:53 |
| fanqo | is there anybody who have used latex to edit chinese? | 05:53 |
| alex_mayorga | ChatterboX_: no | 05:53 |
| Sturmeh | yeah ususually not | 05:53 |
| amenado | helix see if there is the lock in /var/lock | 05:53 |
| gregbrady | kovrt, and trying to play video? | 05:53 |
| AprilHare | Sturmeh, what a coincidence - i don't suppose you have a faster core 2 quad processor? :D | 05:53 |
| nix-newbie | Sturmeh: do you want me to walk you through setting up windows to automount? | 05:54 |
| cookiemonster077 | dr_willis : since hardy install i can't get it to see any media in the drive not even boot from it for another install | 05:54 |
| alex_mayorga | no window driver would help on Linux | 05:54 |
| ChatterboX_ | alex_mayorga i really want my tablet to work but i'm not getting the assistance i need, i'mnew | 05:54 |
| kovrt | yes any flash will heat it up | 05:54 |
| helix | amenado, that's the message i get, but i have no idea what that is... and i dont have multiple computers so if there is what should i do? | 05:54 |
| === selocol_ is now known as selocol | ||
| sc006 | <cmw72> nvidia-setting would work for you | 05:54 |
| Sturmeh | AprilHare yeah 3.0ghtz | 05:54 |
| vboyz | Sturmeh: where i can check whether my all drivers are installed proeperly | 05:54 |
| Dr_willis | cookiemonster077, that sounds like a deeper issue then. | 05:54 |
| AprilHare | Sturmeh, lol | 05:54 |
| amenado | helix, hang on let me see where that lock is | 05:54 |
| alex_mayorga | ChatterboX_: you've tried the vendor? | 05:54 |
| gregbrady | kovrt, I wish I could help. Mine does the same thing. I put a wedge in the front of my laptop to lift it off the surface of the table. It gets me by. | 05:54 |
| Sturmeh | vboyz not sure, desktop effects should be working | 05:54 |
| osmosis | boo | 05:55 |
| Sturmeh | vboyz did you install and try envy? | 05:55 |
| cmw72 | Deepthought, it doesn't find a command named nvidia-settings | 05:55 |
| AprilHare | Sturmeh, this isn't getting me any closer to the goal i seek :) | 05:55 |
| nix-newbie | vboyz: system->adminsitration->hardware drivers | 05:55 |
| cmw72 | but it says I am using those drivers | 05:55 |
| ChatterboX_ | alex_mayorga no i havent | 05:55 |
| vboyz | Sturmeh: yes | 05:55 |
| Sturmeh | AprilHare bite me, then install envy | 05:55 |
| AprilHare | Sturmeh, how do i get out of 640x480 for instance? :) | 05:55 |
| Sturmeh | :D | 05:55 |
| Deepthought | cmw72: no, look in your system-menu | 05:55 |
| AprilHare | envy? | 05:55 |
| kovrt | ok, i guess it's still expirimental stuff | 05:55 |
| Deepthought | cmw72: is it there ? | 05:55 |
| cmw72 | no | 05:55 |
| gregbrady | kovrt, heat and laptops, yes | 05:55 |
| cmw72 | under administration? | 05:55 |
| vboyz | Sturmeh: yes i installed envy 24 | 05:55 |
| Sturmeh | yeah envy installs drivers for graphics card nvidia and ati | 05:55 |
| alex_mayorga | wacom tablets have pretty good linux support IIRC | 05:55 |
| Sturmeh | did you use it vboyz? | 05:55 |
| cmw72 | not under preferences either | 05:55 |
| AprilHare | Sturmeh, many thanks will try | 05:56 |
| vboyz | Sturmeh: no i havent use it | 05:56 |
| Sturmeh | vboyz go to the first menu list, and down to system, and clikc on envy | 05:56 |
| Deepthought | cmw72: ok, go start synaptic, search for nvidia-settings and install it | 05:56 |
| amenado | helix do you have this /var/lib/dpkg/lock ? | 05:56 |
| cookiemonster077 | dr_willis : kernel update was suggested to me there was a bug fix at 2.6.24-13 if your kernel is older try that | 05:56 |
| gregbrady | kovrt, but even a small lift on the front of the laptop usually increases the airflow enough to keep it from failing. It works on my space heating Compaq R4000 | 05:56 |
| cmw72 | shoudl i install the Nvida Binary XFree86 4.x/X.org 'new' driver? | 05:56 |
| alex_mayorga | ChatterboX_ try to contact them if only to make them aware their hardware doesn't work as intended on linux, make and model? | 05:56 |
| vboyz | Sturmeh: there is no envy in menu | 05:56 |
| helix | amenado, yes i think that is the path that i am being told about when trying apt-get remove | 05:57 |
| Deepthought | cmw72: no, negative; that is the open source driver | 05:57 |

| alex_mayorga | ChatterboX_ you're on ubuntu already or just giving it a thought? | 06:04 |
| Deepthought | No1CaNTeL: what cirkit is trying to communicate to you is use ffmpeg ; that's quite a usefull encoder that has all the tricks | 06:04 |
| cirkit | !ffmpeg | 06:04 |
| ubottu | Factoid ffmpeg not found | 06:04 |
| nix-newbie | vboyz: ok, so your card should be working then | 06:04 |
| No1CaNTeL | lol, thank you's :D | 06:04 |
| cirkit | vboyz: you should run glxgears as normal user in a shell | 06:05 |
| vboyz | nix-newbie: i think the video decoding quality is less | 06:05 |

| vboyz | glxgears ,how i can run it | 06:05 |
| Deepthought | cmw72: that's right; don' t worry about it, it's just backup | 06:05 |
| vboyz | :?? | 06:05 |
| cirkit | open a terminal and type glxgears | 06:05 |
| helix | ameno, oh i get it, it cant lock the /var/lib/dpkg/lock file because it seems to be in read only (as for every file for idk what reason) | 06:05 |

| nix-newbie | vboyz: if this your first time with linux, then let me make a few suggestions to you, first google and ubuntuforums.org are two great places to look for help, secondly the learning curve gets easier as you go | 06:11 |
| con-man | I have GoogleEarthLinux.bin and I want to install it | 06:11 |
| ravi | con-man: gotchya | 06:11 |
| ravi | con-man: go to the terminal | 06:12 |
| ravi | con-man: cd to that directory | 06:12 |

| con-man | ravi: thanks! it worked! | 06:12 |
| ChatterboX_ | alex_mayorga whats the first move, i have the driver cd? | 06:12 |
| sc006 | he might have to make it executable | 06:13 |
| ravi | bah.. can't get my question answered so I might as well help others | 06:13 |
| ravi | sc006: apparently not, it worked | 06:13 |
| cmw72 | Deepthought, when i save ... it does not over write xorg.conf | 06:13 |
| cirkit | vboyz: please type "locate xorg.conf" and then open the xorg.conf file with your favorite editor like "nano /path/to/xorg.conf" without the quotes ... make sure you see the nvidia module loaded in there ... look for the driver line --> Driver "nvidia" | 06:13 |
| alex_mayorga | ChatterboX_ put it aside, that's for windows :) only | 06:13 |
| sc006 | yep | 06:13 |
| cmw72 | Deepthought, the file date remains unchanged | 06:13 |
| cmw72 | even though i have chmodded it to 777 | 06:13 |

| fordkiller | Hi All | 06:13 |
| sc006 | sometimes you do have to | 06:13 |

| cirkit | vboyz: if that is there, re-install the nvidia package from Administration | 06:14 |
| ravi | cirkit: why don't you just make him install envy and auto install? | 06:14 |
| Deepthought | cmw72: like I said, it shouldn' t matter, you should get tje new settings after restart x anyway; by the way to restart x easiest is to do ctrl-alt-backspace, that get's you right back to login | 06:14 |
| ravi | cirkit: it's the easiest path | 06:14 |
| ravi | cirkit: especially for a beginner | 06:14 |
| SeaPhor | cirkit, gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 06:14 |

| Deepthought | cmw72: ok, the start it from the terminal, that's what I always do (I like my backups in order too): start terminal and type sudo nvidia-settings, give your user password and then make your settings; choose when saving to not merge with existing file, this way you get a fresh config; next time leave merge on | 06:16 |

| fde | damntourists: Ubuntu Hardy has it by default. | 06:17 |

| bazhang | damntourists: revi envyng-gtk | 06:17 |
| SeaPhor | please all, i know it is now in the repos but please, envy is last resort, has way too many down-sides, and most of the time not needed | 06:17 |

| ravi | vboyz: yt? | 06:18 |
| Gokee2 | Is packages.ubuntu.com down? I can`t seem to get to it | 06:18 |
| Deepthought | cmw72: by the way, to get double screen you have to choose the 'configure' button, and choose separate x-screens, then drag the second screen to the position you want (if you don' t see second screen, drag the screen and it will be under the other one) | 06:18 |

| gregbrady | How do I solve this error with virtualbox? VirtualBox kernel driver not installed. The vboxdrv kernel module was either not loaded or /dev/vboxdrv was not created for some reason. Please install the virtualbox-ose-modules package for your kernel, e.g. virtualbox-ose-modules-generic | 06:22 |
| bazhang | vboyz: easy on the enter key please | 06:22 |
| ravi | vboyz: just choose automatic, it'll work for a bit and ask for a restart of the computer | 06:22 |
| cirkit | gregbrady: just modprobe the required module | 06:22 |
| osmosis | what time would /etc/logrotate.d/apache2 run? | 06:22 |
| ravi | vboyz: go ahead and restart and it'll come back to the login screen where you can proceed. | 06:22 |
| usser | gregbrady, whats your kernel? do uname -a | 06:22 |
| cirkit | try 'modprobe vboxdrv' | 06:22 |

| ravi | vboyz: cool | 06:23 |
| Deepthought | cmw72: ok, now you' ll have to do some experimenting; in separate x-screens you have setting xinerama on or off; that makes a difference with dragging windows from one screen to other, and maximizing on one or all screens; twinview is different; it has aceeleration on all screens but might give trouble with maximize; however, if you first do separate with xinerama on, athen switch to twinview, xinerama remains and you have perfect setting: acce | 06:23 |
| Deepthought | just watch one of those open-GL screensavers go on both screens as if one;; soooo cooool | 06:23 |

| usser | gregbrady, yea hang on one sec theres a package u need to install | 06:25 |
| bazhang | SeaPhor: that is envy; envyng was developed with the help of ubuntu developers and is in the repos | 06:25 |
| ChatterboX_ | alex_mayorga when Genius is on the list | 06:25 |
| cirkit | Nasa supports Flight Linux | 06:25 |
| ravi | vocx: hmm... I know but how can I flush that stuff? | 06:25 |
| ravi | vocx: seems it's conflicting with my old home partition | 06:25 |
| gregbrady | usser, no problem | 06:25 |
| ravi | vboyz: sorry man, I can't give it out in a public IRC such as this | 06:25 |
| Dr_willis | I think the name 'envyng' should of been.. well.. perhaps better if it dident have the term 'envy' in it. :) | 06:25 |
| ravi | vboyz: or else everyone will be after me | 06:25 |
| usser | gregbrady, here do this sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose-modules-386 | 06:25 |
| vboyz | ravi: not for that | 06:25 |
| ChatterboX_ | <alex_mayorga Genius is on the list | 06:25 |
| alex_mayorga | bazhang: how exactly was I on topic? | 06:25 |
| DIFTOW | If someone can help me. Please send me a PM or join #moomoo so I can talk without all this distraction here. | 06:26 |
| vocx | ravi, I think you could delete the info on HOME since I guess it takes precedence over stuff in /etc | 06:26 |
| bazhang | alex_mayorga: discussion of nasa was not | 06:26 |
| vboyz | ravi: i just want to add you as my friend in orkut | 06:26 |
| ravi | vboyz: don't have orkut | 06:26 |
| vboyz | ravi: its ok | 06:26 |
| ravi | vboyz: lets take this to #ubuntu-offtopic | 06:26 |
| gregbrady | usser, funny, not part of the regular install? | 06:26 |
| DIFTOW | I keep asking for help, and everyone who says "whats the problem?" doesnt ever respond when I explain. | 06:26 |
| ravi | vocx: ok... mind being a bit more specific as to what to delete? | 06:27 |
| sc006 | its envy-gtk | 06:27 |
| usser | gregbrady, it should have been installed, did it work? | 06:27 |
| bazhang | DIFTOW: what is the exact issue; please clearly state what you have tried, what errors you have gotten etc | 06:27 |
| gregbrady | usser, working now | 06:27 |
| ravi | holy crud people "sudo apt-get install envy*" and get it over with | 06:27 |
| alex_mayorga | bazhang: I didn't introduce the topic, but anyway, thanks on your input | 06:27 |
| vocx | DIFTOW, well, you don't explain exactly what the problem is, you just say, "I wann compile halp!" | 06:27 |
| sc006 | or envy-qt if you run kde | 06:27 |
| DIFTOW | No | 06:27 |
| Anza | I cant transfer the pictures from my camera, it wont show up, I plug it in and nothign shows up! :( | 06:27 |
| DIFTOW | Wrong | 06:27 |
| bazhang | sc006: envyng-qt | 06:28 |
| ChatterboX_ | <alex_mayorga the Genius brand is there | 06:28 |
| Starnestommy | DIFTOW: have you checked the readme or install files in its sources? | 06:28 |
| cirkit | ravi: rm ~/. | 06:28 |
| DIFTOW | Of course | 06:28 |
| sc006 | fot kde | 06:28 |
| DIFTOW | They appear to be empty. | 06:28 |
| ravi | cirkit: hahaha | 06:28 |
| Dr_willis | ravi, my apt-get install has tab completion. :) | 06:28 |
| sc006 | for KDE | 06:28 |
| Starnestommy | DIFTOW: is there a ./configure script in it? | 06:28 |
| DIFTOW | Look, you can get the same files I have. | 06:28 |
| DIFTOW | http://fsv.sourceforge.net/ | 06:28 |
| ravi | Dr_willis: ah yes, but people make too much fuss about which envy to install | 06:28 |
| DIFTOW | I tried running the configure script in the terminal.. it didnt work. | 06:29 |
| ravi | Dr_willis: not like an extra 50 kb on the disk is going to hurt anyone | 06:29 |
| vocx | ravi, I can't tell exactly what to delete, but I'll search the GNOME desktop guides... let's see if I can find it. | 06:29 |
| Starnestommy | DIFTOW: what error messages did it give out? | 06:29 |
| Dr_willis | ravi, im not sure apt-get install envy* would work.... Then again the name 'envy' = somthing we trained people to run away from for ages. :) | 06:29 |
| ravi | Dr_willis: it does | 06:29 |
| sc006 | sorry youtr right | 06:29 |
| Deepthought | drivetrax: if you follow links on the nasa-page you linked earlier, you' ll find you end up on linux-real-player fer instance; so nuf support to work | 06:29 |
| SeaPhor | bazhang, whatever, its the same thing, and i am better off from what you told me then, i am envy free and feels as good as being windows free , GL with what ever you do just remember that all the places you tell ppl to go are mostly empty #wireless, and so on | 06:29 |
| sc006 | dont listen to me | 06:29 |
| sc006 | lol | 06:29 |
| ravi | vocx: thanks, I'm not going to take cirkit's advice of rm ~/.* | 06:29 |
| ravi | vocx: :) | 06:29 |
| Dr_willis | ravi, it just matched several dozen packages here. :) | 06:30 |
| ravi | Dr_willis: yep... no problem | 06:30 |
| Gokee2 | Anyone know why I don`t have xdmx in hardy? I have all my sources enabled | 06:30 |

| alex_mayorga | ChatterboX_ then try to follow this guide http://www.stud.fit.vutbr.cz/~xhorak28/index.php?page=WizardPen_Driver#4 | 06:30 |
| ravi | Dr_willis: it's really not going to kill your system - you know that right? | 06:30 |
| cE_eXemPhe_Fzz_ | haiiii | 06:31 |
| bazhang | SeaPhor: glad it worked out for you; re-directing people is an option for people who may not get the answer here-->compiz gives very good answers though it is less active here (though everywhere is less active than here) | 06:31 |
| Dr_willis | ravi, of course. but it seems the use of wildcards can tend to grab a lot more then what one expects | 06:31 |
| gnech | hello | 06:31 |
| bc-howls | Can anyone here help me with my wifi problem? If I turn off wireless using the kill switch, then turn it back on, I am unable to connect to any networks until I reboot. | 06:31 |
| ravi | Dr_willis: much better than not grabbing one thing that you need | 06:31 |
| eboyjr | Is there a command for running a command? like START program.exe in windows? | 06:31 |
| gregbrady | usser, no, it did not work | 06:31 |
| Dr_willis | ravi, BEST is to use apt-cache search and get the proper name. ;) | 06:32 |
| ravi | Dr_willis: it's good for noobies who need a quick way to install it without getting into too complex of names | 06:32 |
| vocx | ravi, ha, well, I can't tell you _exactly_, but it must be some file mentioned here: http://library.gnome.org/admin/system-admin-guide/2.20/menustructure-0.html.en | 06:32 |
| usser | gregbrady, what does it say? | 06:32 |
| usser | gregbrady, same story? | 06:32 |
| sc006 | sorry bought the type on the envy progam all | 06:32 |

| bazhang | ravi the menus or the panels-->please clarify thanks | 06:34 |
| sc006 | do you know witch file or dir has the menu files | 06:34 |
| vocx | ravi, basically, there is a bunch of ".config" and "applications.menu" files that control the application menu. I don't know how to reset it. I'm not an expert on this, but I want to learn this stuff also, since I wanted to customize my menus a little. | 06:35 |
| Dr_willis | ravi, i normally move the whole home/* to a backup dir. that way i start with a clean home. and move whatever config files/dirs back | 06:35 |
| KeithWeisshar | i don't even get music or sound in the chromium game | 06:35 |
| karayan | ravi, yes google talk with voice | 06:35 |
| cookiemonster077 | dr_willis : i now have it recognizing cds but not dvds and dmesg says its using uniform cdrom drivers | 06:35 |

| KeithWeisshar | why am i not getting any sound in the chromium shooting game | 06:36 |
| yao_ziyua1 | can anyone suggest faster solutions than tor? | 06:36 |
| usser | gregbrady, just follow steps for gutsy | 06:36 |
| karayan | ravi, I did a google and found things like tapioca and jabbin. They are not actively developed? | 06:36 |
| hittingpilot | i have a problem with the synaptic packet manager | 06:36 |
| ravi | karayan: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=246717 | 06:36 |
| alex_mayorga | ChatterboX_ type that on a terminal on the directory you downloaded the driver | 06:36 |
| Starnestommy | hittingpilot: what kind of problem? | 06:36 |
| ChatterboX_ | alex_mayorga i've downloaded the file to my desktop, can i drag the file out to extract? | 06:37 |
| gregbrady | usser, thank you for your time and attempts! | 06:37 |
| bazhang | ravi you mean the system-->preferences-->main menu items? that one? | 06:37 |
| ravi | karayan: you can give it a shot but I don't think they are maintained | 06:37 |
| chiefwigms | anyone? | 06:37 |
| ravi | bazhang: I mean applications | 06:37 |
| hittingpilot | i'm trying to install a windows wifi device | 06:37 |
| usser | gregbrady, no problem | 06:37 |
| ravi | bazhang: you see, I have an old Home partition and I reinstalled | 06:37 |
| bazhang | ravi did you check that | 06:37 |
| alex_mayorga | ChatterboX_ you can double click and it would ask where to extract | 06:37 |
| ravi | bazhang: and I can't see any new icons appearing as I install new apps | 06:37 |
| ravi | bazhang: check what? | 06:37 |
| === xander is now known as Xvedejas | ||
| bazhang | ravi the preferences main menu config tool | 06:38 |
| ravi | bazhang: not much I can do there | 06:38 |
| vocx | chiefwigms, anyone what? If you are not answered repeat the question, but don't just say "anyone?" because it's confusing. | 06:38 |
| ravi | bazhang: it doesn't help with adding new apps as I install them | 06:38 |
| chiefwigms | hey guys.. question on hardy - i upgraded, and my evtouch driver (i use .87) calibration is completely different than in gutsy (no hardware changes) | 06:38 |
| bazhang | ravi: adding from where repos or random sites | 06:38 |
| ravi | bazhang: for example, I installed epiphany-browser and it should show up in Application> Internet but it doesn't | 06:39 |
| ravi | bazhang: repos | 06:39 |
| ChatterboX_ | alex_mayorga its suppose to be just a folder with the files after extraction right? please alex_mayorga, remember i'm still kinda new to this | 06:39 |
| eboyjr | When I drag a launcher with a command of "nautilus" to another launcher with a command of "gksudo %u", nothing happens.. Yet when I drag a txt file to a launcher with a command of gksudo "gnome-open %u" , it opens gedit with the file i dragged to it with root privileges.. Why is that? | 06:39 |
| ravi | bazhang: that epiphany was the epiphany-browser package | 06:39 |
| bazhang | ravi epipahny? let me try | 06:39 |
| ravi | bazhang: epiphany-browser | 06:39 |
| alex_mayorga | ChatterboX_ yep now on that folder there should be INSTALL and README files, double click those and read along | 06:40 |
| Scunizi | !wireless > Scunizi | 06:40 |

| ravi | bazhang: ok | 06:43 |
| Garbear | i dont have the advance graphix option | 06:43 |
| ravi | Garbear: no probs, what is your issue? | 06:43 |
| ravi | Garbear: ok.. so what happens when you try to turn it on? | 06:44 |
| gregbrady | Ok, I give up on virtualbox!!!!! It is not as easy as stated! | 06:44 |
| alex_mayorga | ChatterboX_ you need to do that on a terminal that is open on the folder you extracted | 06:44 |
| Garbear | my only display options are vesa generic compliant video | 06:44 |
| vocx | gregbrady, ha ha, you newbie! | 06:44 |
| Garbear | it saysno | 06:44 |
| gregbrady | vocx, true enough! | 06:45 |
| alex_mayorga | ChatterboX_ you know how to traverse folders using cd command right? | 06:45 |
| vocx | Mr_Awesome, I think they added the Pulse Audio sound system on top of alsa. So that may be the cause. But don't know of any solutions. Mine is fine. | 06:45 |
| usser | gregbrady, what happened? | 06:45 |
| ravi | Garbear: ok.. what laptop are you running? | 06:45 |
| usser | gregbrady, where u stuck? | 06:45 |
| sc006 | what wrong with vbox | 06:45 |
| alex_mayorga | a !new-user factoid is hardly overdue | 06:45 |
| ChatterboX_ | alex_mayorga no | 06:45 |
| gregbrady | VirtualBox kernel driver not installed. The vboxdrv kernel module was either not loaded or /dev/vboxdrv was not created for some reason. Please install the virtualbox-ose-modules package for your kernel, e.g. virtualbox-ose-modules-generic.. | 06:45 |
| Garbear | dv2000 64bit duo | 06:45 |
| ChatterboX_ | alex_mayorga of course not | 06:45 |
| lucian | a small flame (sorry) , if the 1328 user join to make a new kernel better than linux, the world to be better | 06:46 |
| Mr_Awesome | vocx: indeed. i tried setting the sound preferences to alsa, but that didnt do it | 06:46 |
| usser | gregbrady, did u do all the steps in the guide? | 06:46 |
| ravi | Garbear: are you running 64-bit ubuntu? | 06:46 |
| lucian | sorry for my english | 06:46 |
| Garbear | yeah | 06:46 |
| sc006 | u should get the full one from the web sight | 06:46 |
| gregbrady | usser, yes | 06:46 |
| alex_mayorga | ChatterboX you've never used cmd.exe back in windows? | 06:46 |
| Garbear | although i am wiling to reinstall i am trying to work it out | 06:47 |
| ChatterboX_ | not really, i've never really had to | 06:47 |
| usser | gregbrady, well lets do step by step | 06:47 |
| sc006 | ose limited on features | 06:47 |

| lucian | phobos_: install gnash in cvs | 06:47 |
| ravi | bazhang: hence my tension :) | 06:47 |
| ravi | Garbear: hold on please, looking up a solution | 06:48 |
| gregbrady | usser, ok | 06:48 |
| vocx | gregbrady, you can also try the debian package from the innotek web page (developers of virtualbox). It's not exactly the same as the -ose package but you won't notice any difference. | 06:48 |
| usser | gregbrady, no errors? | 06:48 |
| bazhang | ravi: how are you adding it-->system--preferences--main menu add it there | 06:48 |
| alex_mayorga | !terminal > ChatterboX_ | 06:48 |
| usser | gregbrady, kk sudo module-assistant prepare | 06:48 |
| gregbrady | usser, no | 06:48 |
| Garbear | on te phone with a slacker freind too | 06:48 |
| lucian | alex_mayorga: hehehh ,sorry for the flame | 06:48 |
| usser | gregbrady, pastebin the output of that command | 06:48 |
| phobos_ | luckin: thanks, i wasn't for sure, the plugin made my computer randomly freeze. or atleast i think it was flash | 06:48 |
| ChatterboX_ | alex_mayorga yeah i already have it opened | 06:48 |
| ravi | bazhang: weird, it didn't do it automatically for you? | 06:48 |
| ravi | bazhang: that's how it did it previously for me | 06:48 |
| vocx | phobos_, why do you think it was flash? | 06:48 |
| lucian | alex_mayorga: but one day i will make a kernel fork from openbsd | 06:48 |
| alex_mayorga | ChatterboX_ please follow ubottu advise and check that guide | 06:49 |
| alex_mayorga | ubottu is wise :) | 06:49 |
| Garbear | so my computer has a poopy card aparently | 06:49 |
| phobos_ | vocx: i removed it and it stopped | 06:49 |
| ravi | Garbear: of course, this is integrated video card | 06:49 |
| ravi | Garbear: can you give the output for glxinfo? | 06:49 |
| gregbrady | usser, http://pastebin.com/m2997aed4 | 06:49 |
| vocx | phobos_, removed the plugin or just closed the browser? | 06:49 |
| switchcat | Q: I'm having audio problems with playing back an .avi since upgrading to hardy... it's like it's being repeatedly inturrupted and skipping back on itself, I'm not sure how to describe it. | 06:49 |
| phobos_ | vocx: removed the plugin completly | 06:49 |
| alex_mayorga | lucian as linus says real mean have the world save them or something like that | 06:49 |
| switchcat | Any suggestions? is this a common problem? | 06:50 |
| alex_mayorga | ChatterboX_ so are you on a terminal at the folder you've extracted? | 06:50 |
| ChatterboX_ | alex_mayorga what guide? i feel forced to go back to using xp, i hate having to do installations on ubuntu, i like it very much but windows is so much easier | 06:50 |
| vocx | switchcat, what program are you using to watch the file? Use a different program. | 06:50 |
| usser | gregbrady, do this sudo apt-get install curl build-essential patchutils | 06:50 |
| Garbear | sec ravi | 06:51 |
| bazhang | ravi sometimes a refresh of x will do it; it showed it in the main menu config tool but did not show the icon so I deleted it and added again | 06:51 |
| ChatterboX_ | alex_mayorga what do you mean on a terminal at the folder, i have the terminal opened | 06:51 |
| vocx | usser, are you telling him to compile the vbox source? why? the package doesn't work or what? | 06:51 |
| alex_mayorga | ChatterboX_ you're free to go, but if you want ubuntu to be better at least write the mail to your vendor | 06:51 |
| sc006 | it really not easer it's the learning curve | 06:51 |
| ravi | bazhang: ok, weird. probably the package's post-installer gone wrong | 06:51 |
| ravi | bazhang: stupid me | 06:51 |
| gregbrady | usser, so much faith to copy and paste a sudo command! | 06:52 |
| phobos_ | vocx: the problems also only started once i installed the plugin to begin with. It could be somethign else but it was the only pattern i notioced | 06:52 |
| flip2405 | Hello i have a question i kinda got my self in a pickle here i downloaded the live cd when i ment to download the text based installer because my computer will not install on the live cd and i knew that from previous attemts is there any way to make a partition on my hd and make it boot the text based installer? | 06:52 |
| ChatterboX_ | alex_mayorga i dont want to go, but i'm getting abit frustrated...its not easy thats all | 06:52 |
| alex_mayorga | bazhang is there a factoid for basic CLI interactions? | 06:52 |
| usser | vocx, yea... i told him to install package module for 386, didnt seem to work | 06:52 |

| ravi | bazhang: thought it was a larger problem because I was reusing my old Home | 06:53 |
| usser | gregbrady, should finish with no errors and so on: | 06:53 |
| bazhang | alex_mayorga: you mean basic bash commands? | 06:53 |
| usser | gregbrady, sudo module-assistant unpack virtualbox-ose | 06:53 |
| sc006 | flip2405. just download the alternative cd | 06:53 |
| usser | gregbrady, and sudo module-assistant auto-install virtualbox-ose | 06:54 |
| alex_mayorga | ChatterboX_ I understand that, just stick to it a bit and it'll come to you, type pwd on a terminal and it'll tell where you're at | 06:54 |

| gregbrady | usser, yes | 06:57 |
| gregbrady | usser, still the same error | 06:57 |
| usser | gregbrady, also this will load the module on startup, otherwise u'll have to modprobe vboxdrv manually each time: echo "vboxdrv" | sudo tee -a /etc/modules | 06:57 |
| helix | Any opinion on my previous question above? | 06:57 |
| alex_mayorga | bazhang I know my three commands of bash already, I need the users to know them | 06:57 |

| icky | need some help concerning step four of the live cd install--install doesn't detect my partitions or act as if any drive at all is connected. any ideas? | 07:08 |
| phantom784 | ubercanuck: it was fine when i first installed it,but became slow soon | 07:08 |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, i doubt there is an effort, but if you really want compiz-fusion on windows, then I'd suggest doing a port | 07:08 |
| ravi | TuxPWNZ: there's not much to install :) | 07:08 |
| qwiksand | alex_mayorga> yes, i am | 07:08 |
| phantom784 | ravi: i have the drivers from the restricted driver manager | 07:08 |
| vocx | well, it says you just need to do "make install" weird instructions... that would be "sudo make install" so the program is installed to your /usr/bin folder. But maybe you can just extract it anywhere you want and run it there? | 07:08 |
| UberCanuck | phantom784, dns issues? | 07:08 |
| TuxPWNZ | ravi: What do you mean? | 07:08 |

| phobos_ | Sortudo: does the wifi card show up in the network manager? | 07:13 |
| TuxPWNZ | sc006: Terminal | 07:13 |

| gregbrady | usser, never mind....you are good!!!! | 07:14 |
| UberCanuck | SuperQ, why? there are several 'clean up' tasks you can do anyways | 07:14 |

| vocx | ravi, TuxPWNZ, liken Java but hating C#? isn't that like saying "I like Ubuntu but Hate Kubuntu" | 07:25 |
| choke | opening SteamInstall.msi with wine does nothing | 07:25 |
| alex_mayorga | UberCanuck qwiksand has even untarred the file by double click, I'm really proud | 07:25 |
| TuxPWNZ | ravi: Yeah, but I believe that C# is not as cross-platform as Java. | 07:25 |
| patifa | GT64: I'm not too familar with this in a domain enviroment, but we need to try it w/o that .ubuntu | 07:25 |
| Sortudo | 6: witch channel (0 to 16), i chose 6 ! | 07:25 |
| bazhang | vocx: ravi TuxPWNZ please take coding talk to #ubuntu-offtopic thanks | 07:25 |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, did you unarchive it? or do you want to drop to shell to do so? | 07:25 |
| ravi | TuxPWNZ: yeah.. lets go over there | 07:25 |
| WaterJoe | C# requires mono? | 07:25 |
| choke | anyone..? | 07:25 |
| phobos_ | Sortudo: do any other laptops have to put in a password/key to access it? | 07:25 |
| quentusrex | What is some software that can play rm files from real player? | 07:25 |
| ravi | bazhang: sorry for starting this | 07:25 |
| TuxPWNZ | vocx: No, it's different, C# is close-source while Java is open-source | 07:26 |
| vocx | bazhang, actually there is a better place for that, #ubuntu-programming he! | 07:26 |
| bazhang | ravi no worries | 07:26 |
| alex_mayorga | UberCanuck I guess my googling skills are rapidly decaying :( | 07:26 |
| qwiksand | alex_mayorga why do i send so sarcasm? hmm...UberCanck, i just dragged the file out to the desktop | 07:26 |
| patifa | C# is much more closed than java is now. | 07:26 |
| UberCanuck | alex_mayorga, there is probably a better repo | 07:26 |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, okay good, open a terminal from the menus (in Accessories) | 07:26 |
| ravi | hey, everyone wanting a C# Java Discussion come to #ubuntu-programming | 07:26 |
| Sortudo | phobos: it did not work :((( | 07:26 |
| ravi | no need for more noise in there | 07:26 |
| qwiksand | UberCanuck yeah done | 07:27 |
| phobos_ | Sortudo: still can't get an ip? | 07:27 |
| TuxPWNZ | patifa: Java is Open-source and Sun is willing to completely open it so that it ships with Linux. | 07:27 |
| alex_mayorga | qwiksand I'm just stating our progress to Uber, sorry if I discomforted you | 07:27 |
| tony | For whatever reason, the Grub installer on 8.04 gets really confused by very large, complicated disk setups. | 07:27 |
| phantom784 | ravi: i re-installed my nvidia driver and the computer is still slow. i especially notice it when firefox is open. | 07:27 |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, good, now type (or paste) `cd ~/Desktop` | 07:27 |
| ravi | phantom784: are desktop effects turned on? | 07:27 |
| Dr_willis | I think sun is a little late in opensourceing java.... | 07:27 |
| choke | can anyone help me in installing steam using wine.. | 07:27 |
| tony | It always manages to land the bootloader on the right disk, but it has issues getting the menu.lst entries to point to the right drives. | 07:28 |
| Styles__ | I wana be a linux guru haha | 07:28 |
| phantom784 | ravi: they are now, but i was noticing the same problem without them | 07:28 |
| Styles__ | Thats my goal. | 07:28 |
| === Styles__ is now known as Styles | ||
| choke | styles did u get steam running? | 07:28 |
| tony | Can anyone confirm, or am I nuts? | 07:28 |
| alex_mayorga | Dr_willis open-jdk is already on hardy repos | 07:28 |
| joshvittetoe | can someone assist me please? im having trouble getting ubuntu to recognize my HDD | 07:28 |
| vocx | tony, that seems like something worth investigating. Maybe you should file a bug report if you can reproduce the behavior. | 07:28 |
| patifa | quentusrex: mplayer | 07:28 |
| phantom784 | ravi: i just turned them back off, same problem | 07:29 |
| shadethinker | In Feisty there was a setting where I could highlight a window without clicking while having the previous window in focus. In Hardy I can't figure out how to enable the setting or... the name of the feature so I know what to search for in google. Anyone happen to know? | 07:29 |
| qwiksand | UberCanuck "cd ~/Desktop"? | 07:29 |
| con-man | does anyone know what could cause my shift ctrl and alt keys no work with my mouse during a game run with wine? Specifically, ctrl + click, alt + click and so on. This only happened after upgrading to hery hardon | 07:29 |
| phantom784 | ravi: it especially seams prevalent when i try a flash program (i'm trying to load pandora.com now) | 07:29 |
| tony | vocx: That's what I'm thinking. I'll scrape together a few more drives and do up a test system tommorrow. | 07:29 |
| qwiksand | alex_mayorga no, i like the concern | 07:29 |
| ravi | phantom784: how about youtube? | 07:29 |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, good, now type `tar -vxzf wizardpen-driver-*.tar.gz` | 07:29 |
| ravi | phantom784: do you see video slowing? | 07:29 |
| phantom784 | ravi: i do when i go fullscreen | 07:30 |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, this should unarchive the file, creating a folder with files and other folders | 07:30 |
| danny | me too | 07:30 |
| phantom784 | ravi: but the sound is still fine | 07:30 |
| ravi | phantom784: go ahead and right click on any flash app and go to settings and turn off hardware acceleration if it is turned on | 07:30 |
| GT64 | ok, hosts file now says 127.0.0.1 localhost | 07:30 |
| danny | didn't work with turning off hardware acc for me... | 07:30 |
| patifa | GT64: k, so how's sudo bash doing? | 07:30 |
| qwiksand | <UberCanuck> when i typed the first thing nothing happened | 07:30 |
| vocx | tony, installation problems are important to usability. What are these complicated disk setups, like for a server or what? | 07:30 |
| GT64 | still unable to resolve host | 07:30 |

| chaqui | :-) | 07:31 |
| Styles | choke, I can't get steam running till later I know whats wrong though so its an easy fix thanks :) It has to do with a registry. | 07:31 |

| patifa | GT64: What's your /etc/hostname file say in comparison to your /etc/hosts, now? | 07:31 |
| bazhang | inukshux: no | 07:32 |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, you need to unarchive the file, you can do so by double clicking on the file on your desktop | 07:32 |
| Styles | jjv, whats wrong? | 07:32 |
| phantom784 | ravi: i can't even get a youtube video to load anymore. i was able to earlier | 07:32 |
| inukshux | bazhang: and how can I get KDE4 from my Gnome desktop? I'm on Hardy. | 07:32 |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, opens a dialog, then hit the Extract button, twice | 07:32 |
| bazhang | inukshux: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-kde4-desktop | 07:32 |

| UberCanuck | alex_mayorga, got it less than a week ago | 07:45 |
| qwiksand | UberCanuck :~/Desktop/wizardpen-driver-0.5.0 so with the ":"? | 07:45 |
| UberCanuck | Anyone going to Ubuntu Live this year? (I went last year) | 07:45 |
| Chris| | UberCanuck, you know what i would do with that? scrap the 'dell' version of that ubuntu, and put regular ubuntu on it.. | 07:45 |
| usser | lmosher, 2.6.24 has a new opensource driver for intel wifi | 07:45 |
| bazhang | lmosher you have any support issues with the new kernel? | 07:45 |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, no ':' | 07:45 |
| Chris| | they restrict ubuntu so much its not funny | 07:45 |
| alex_mayorga | UberCanuck that's also on the short list, that I might even afford the eeePC is also on the list | 07:45 |
| UberCanuck | Chris|, why - no trust? :-) | 07:46 |
| Chris| | they left out a ton of repo's.. | 07:46 |
| qwiksand | <UberCanuck> its saying its not a directory | 07:46 |
| lmosher | bazhang, I can't get 2.6.24 to boot. I get an error: ALERT! /dev/disk/by-UUID/<my uuid> does not exist. Dropping to shell. 2.6.22 boots just fine. | 07:46 |
| UberCanuck | alex_mayorga, have 2 eepc - went to LInuxfest Northwest with one two weeks before - surprised that its still gathering attention | 07:46 |
| fde | Chris|: So just add those repos back, rather than install fresh... legal DVD playback etc is a good thing. | 07:46 |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, the directory that was created, was it in your home or on your Desktop? | 07:46 |
| bazhang | lmosher: have you looked at launchpad to confirm any of the bugs there? | 07:47 |
| Chris| | fde, yeah but i can also do that in totem with restricted-ubuntu-extras ;) besides i'd rather have a clean install, but each his own | 07:47 |
| qwiksand | <UberCanuck> yes | 07:47 |
| sortudo_78 | thaks phobos, but it did not work :((( | 07:47 |
| bazhang | lmosher sometimes workarounds will be posted there before they get to the forums | 07:47 |
| UberCanuck | Chris|, i added them back in, removed some stuff (nothing nasty like they do with MS oses) | 07:47 |
| lmosher | bazhang, I was looking at one that was pretty similar, but their workarounds didn't work for me. :( | 07:47 |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, which? | 07:47 |
| fde | Chris|: ubuntu-restricted-extras doesn't provide legality... | 07:47 |
| qwiksand | <UberCanuck> which what? | 07:48 |
| alex_mayorga | UberCanuck I'll wait and see until they release the 9 inch one | 07:48 |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, where is the directory - home or desktop? | 07:48 |
| Chris| | yeah UberCanuck i did that, but still not as good as a fresh install, everything still worked as if it did with the dell version | 07:48 |
| bazhang | !ot > alex_mayorga | 07:48 |
| lmosher | bazhang, 2.6.22 seems to be working OK. I have 9245 wireless and it's working just fine.. so.. I might just leave it as-is until next version... maybe they'll fix it by then. | 07:48 |
| UberCanuck | alex_mayorga, probably a good idea - its a little claustrophobic | 07:48 |
| choke | yay got steam to work under wine | 07:48 |

| wolferine | how do you mount an external USB harddrive in Hardy? I see it on my desktop, but priviledges arent right or something.. ? | 07:50 |
| bazhang | !ot | 07:50 |
| Chris| | UberCanuck, i see your point | 07:50 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 07:50 |
| lmosher | bazhang, Yep. I'm glad I got it working. I was really pissed (just bought this laptop) and I used my hardy CD and it wouldn't load/install.. I was getting mad until I tried Gutsy and it installed fine. At first I was just thinking the laptop was screwy. Now (as far as I can tell from bug reports) it's just my HDD being less compatible with the latest kernel | 07:50 |
| fde | choke: Sure, you can even use the Windows DLL's for better performance under wine too... just point to it via System > Wine > Configure Wine. | 07:50 |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, okay, then in the terminal type `cd ~/Desktop' and then cd into the folder that was created | 07:50 |
| vocx | lmosher, still, you should read about it on the forums. Maybe it is a persistent problem only few experience. Search for the exact model of the laptop. And ye, new hardware doesn't always work. | 07:50 |

| Chris| | samiam Krita | 07:51 |
| UberCanuck | alex_mayorga, ah | 07:51 |
| fde | smmagic: kolourpaint and gnupaint | 07:51 |
| Ahadiel | smmagic, gimp perhaps? | 07:51 |
| bazhang | vboyz: in hardy? it is standard you know | 07:51 |
| smmagic | I just want something simple | 07:51 |
| fde | smmagic: krita and gimp are more advanced | 07:51 |
| qwiksand | UberCanuck> not sure if it has moved | 07:52 |
| vboyz | i have beta 4 | 07:52 |
| vboyz | not beta 5 | 07:52 |
| smmagic | GNUpaint I guess. | 07:52 |
| * fde prefers kolourpaint | 07:52 | |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, only moved if you moved it | 07:52 |
| bazhang | smmagic: how simple? for kids? | 07:52 |
| proqesi | gimp is just point and grunt though | 07:52 |
| vboyz | bazhang: i have only beta 4 in my pc | 07:52 |
| smmagic | Simple like mspaint | 07:52 |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, do you have any ubuntu knowledgable friends that can help you in person? | 07:52 |
| smmagic | Just when I wanna cut out a image, etc. | 07:52 |
| qwiksand | roshane@roshane-desktop:~$ | 07:52 |
| vboyz | bazhang: i want to upgrade it | 07:52 |

| vboyz | hey i downloaded firefox-3.0b5.tar.bz2 ..i want to replace it with my current firefox..how i can do it ?? | 07:53 |
| Jurgentje | Hi all... anyone here who can tell me where to find grub.conf in ubuntu 8.04 | 07:53 |
| qwiksand | UberCanuck> no i'm the only one around thats uses it... | 07:53 |
| UberCanuck | Jurgentje, /boot/grub | 07:53 |
| proqesi | Jurgentje: it's /boot/grub/menu.lst | 07:53 |
| fde | smmagic: gnupaint and kolourpaint emulate the mspaint interface... try them. | 07:53 |
| proqesi | !nvidia | 07:53 |
| ubottu | For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 07:53 |
| vboyz | UberCanuck :hey i downloaded firefox-3.0b5.tar.bz2 ..i want to replace it with my current firefox..how i can do it ?? | 07:53 |
| patifa | GT64: whoops, sorry. Missed your reply due to the lack of the highlighter. | 07:53 |
| smmagic | fde, installing gnupaint right now | 07:53 |
| GT64 | no problems been web surffing to see if there is anything out there | 07:54 |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, i'd suggest you get some help but to compile the driver, you will need to do `sudo apt-get install xutils-dev build-essential` | 07:54 |
| Jurgentje | UberCanuck: cant find it there it was the first place i looked. :s | 07:54 |
| izinucs | vboyz, if you're on hardy you already have it. | 07:54 |
| vboyz | smmagic: ey i downloaded firefox-3.0b5.tar.bz2 ..i want to replace it with my current firefox..how i can do it ?? | 07:54 |
| patifa | GT64: The hostname file needs to match the 2nd column, 2nd row, of your /etc/hosts file | 07:54 |
| hellues | !paste | 07:54 |
| ubottu | pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 07:54 |
| vboyz | izinucs: i am using pre-relase | 07:54 |
| qwiksand | UberCanuck> whats that? | 07:54 |
| vocx | vboyz, I'm sorry, by the way you post, you do not have the skills to install a new firefox version. Don't repeat the question too often, it is offensive. | 07:54 |
| UberCanuck | vboyz, source? when you do ./configure set a folder like /usr/local/ | 07:54 |
| smmagic | vboyz, Why are you asking me? | 07:54 |
| vboyz | izinucs: it has beta 4 | 07:54 |
| vboyz | smmagic: i hope you may know ir | 07:55 |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, gets the binaries and libraries needed for building your driver | 07:55 |
| smmagic | nope, | 07:55 |
| maxwell888 | /part | 07:55 |
| patifa | GT64: the first line of /etc/hosts is usually 127.0.0.1 localhost and the 2nd should be 127.0.0.1 CONTENTSOF/etc/hostname | 07:55 |
| GT64 | so first line should be 127.0.0.1 localhost | 07:55 |
| vboyz | smmagic: i am new to ubuntu | 07:55 |
| UberCanuck | Jurgentje, /boot/grub/menu.lst | 07:55 |
| GT64 | and second line should be 127.0.0.1 Ubuntu | 07:55 |
| alex_mayorga | vboyz: rather use this https://edge.launchpad.net/~fta/+archive | 07:55 |
| qwiksand | <UberCanuck> running | 07:55 |
| smmagic | I don't know | 07:55 |
| qwiksand | <UberCanuck> done | 07:56 |
| bazhang | vboyz: ff3b5 is in hardy why do you wish to compile it | 07:56 |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, good - now you need to move to the folder in terminal, the folder that was created from the archive | 07:56 |
| bullgard4 | What files comprise the 'index' of Tracker? (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tracker/+bug/211149) | 07:56 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 211149 in tracker "Tracker indexing 0 of 0 folders" [Undecided,New] | 07:56 |
| UberCanuck | vboyz, and when you run it, call it via /usr/local/bin/firefox | 07:57 |
| rogue_trader | I currently use gnome. if I install kde as a second desktop environment, can I uninstall it again without affecting my gnome install? | 07:57 |
| bazhang | rogue_trader: sure | 07:57 |
| qwiksand | <UberCanuck> its saying now that its a directory | 07:57 |
| UberCanuck | rogue_trader, short answer is 'yes', long answer is that there is a lot of crud left over | 07:57 |
| vboyz | UberCanuck:it will replace onld one | 07:57 |
| vboyz | ?? | 07:57 |
| GT64 | any good suggestion on how to do this without sudo? :-) | 07:57 |
| vboyz | UberCanuck: i need to replace it old one with new one | 07:57 |
| IntangibleLiquid | hide3, how do I change the cursor theme in hardy? | 07:58 |
| UberCanuck | vboyz, you have firefox in /usr/local? then do a folder specific location like /usr/local/lib/firefox-20080403 | 07:58 |
| patifa | GT64: aptitude might help. I just got another guy the other day into a root bash console using aptitude | 07:58 |
| rogue_trader | thx bazhang, UberCanuck | 07:58 |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, what is 'saying'? | 07:58 |
| fde | patifa: sudo -i will get you a root terminal | 07:58 |
| qwiksand | <UberCanuck> the terminal | 07:58 |
| patifa | fde: Only if sudo is working. | 07:58 |
| fde | GT64: ^^ | 07:58 |
| qwiksand | <UberCanuck> said that i typed is a directory | 07:59 |
| GT64 | synaptic wont start | 07:59 |
| alex_mayorga | UberCanuck thanks on that PPA, but it still don't fixed my problem, do you know how to nuke my FF profile? | 07:59 |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, type `pwd` in the terminal and paste what was returned? | 07:59 |
| bazhang | !info firefox-3.0 | 07:59 |

| Chris| | what package is the users/groups program in? | 07:59 |
| bazhang | see above vboyz | 07:59 |
| fde | patifa: If sudo isn't working, you'll probably be reinstalling in the near future... | 07:59 |
| UberCanuck | alex_mayorga, your profile? sure, rm -rf ~/.mozilla/ | 08:00 |
| vboyz | thanks | 08:00 |
| qwiksand | UberCanuck /home/roshane/Desktop | 08:00 |
| bazhang | vboyz: sudo apt-get install firefox-3.0 | 08:00 |
| UberCanuck | alex_mayorga, not sure if there is any crap left in .gnome (or anywhere else) though | 08:00 |
| patifa | fde: well it's probably because of upgrading to hardy. It seems to break certain people's hosts file, which in turn breaks sudo. | 08:00 |
| patifa | GT64: Try aptitude, not synaptic | 08:00 |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, dude, i need you to move into the unarchived folder. perhaps one was not created?? | 08:00 |
| bazhang | !puregnome | rogue_trader | 08:00 |

| qwiksand | UberCanuck> you mean just open the new folder to where the files are? | 08:01 |
| UberCanuck | danny, virtual desktops you mean? | 08:01 |
| danny | no no | 08:01 |
| izinucs | bazhang, that still leaves stuff in ~ that has to be manually removed.. it hides in .kde | 08:01 |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, in terminal | 08:01 |
| bazhang | danny: compiz in hardy; you can also try ubuntu-tweak | 08:01 |

| patifa | Get root yet? | 08:03 |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, in terminal, do a `tar xvzf wizardpen-driver[TAB]`, hit the Tab key, the full name of the file should have been completed | 08:03 |
| izinucs | rogue_trader, just deleting .kde doesn't get rid of everything.. follow bazhang 's psychocat referance and do that then delete .kde from ~ | 08:03 |

| patifa | bah, GT64 give me a little bit and I'm going to break my virtual machine's hosts/hostname file, and see if I can recover. The other possibility here is to reboot into recovery mode, where you can fix those two files easily. | 08:05 |
| qwiksand | UberCanuck> cannot read: is a directory | 08:05 |

| UberCanuck | qwiksand, thats the folder - not the file, sounds like its already unarchived, do a `cd wizardpen-driver-0.5.0` | 08:06 |
| benovic | need help :) | 08:06 |
| bazhang | mystic envy or envyng the first is not supported here | 08:06 |

| bazhang | !ask | benovic | 08:07 |

| fde | izibi: he should have an xorg.config.old or similar if he didn't touch the file himself. | 08:07 |
| blankthebiggerpc | izinucs, yeah there was but stupidly I ran the installer again and it wiped it | 08:07 |

| bazhang | gutsy mystic is the restricted drivers manager | 08:08 |
| opop | is it ok to use reiser, since hans is in the pokey? who's been maintaining it, i wonder? | 08:08 |
| opop | socially acceptable, and whatnot? | 08:08 |
| freakabcd | what is the HTML editor available with Seamonkey? | 08:08 |
| datakid | hey is there an equivalent to bcheck (solaris) or dbx debugger in ubuntu/debian? | 08:09 |
| freakabcd | is it available as a standalone app or a package for ubuntu? | 08:09 |
| opop | Peemonkey | 08:09 |
| bazhang | opop it is fine but ext3 is more in use-->please stay on topic | 08:09 |
| fde | opop: No one has been maintaining Reiser for more than a year, and there are rumors of it being dropped. | 08:09 |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, i'm affraid that the instructions won't work as written, sec, i'm looking into why | 08:09 |
| fde | opop: (by the upstream kernel guys) | 08:09 |
| opop | bazhang, that's what i was looking for, from fde. thanks, m8 | 08:09 |
| opop | bazhang, completely on topic, thank you very much. | 08:10 |
| blankthebiggerpc | argh, can I force a reinstall of the restricted drivers? | 08:10 |
| fde | blankthebiggerpc: sure... sudo apt-get install --reinstall | 08:10 |
| blankthebiggerpc | makes sense fde :D | 08:11 |
| fde | blankthebiggerpc: or in synaptic ... right click the package and "mark for reinstallation" or whatever it says. | 08:11 |
| mystic | bazhang not sure i follow | 08:11 |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, also need to do `sudo apt-get install x-dev libx11-dev libxext-dev` (more libraries) | 08:11 |
| opop | how easy is it to do redundant sql servers, say, across town? | 08:11 |

| opop | UberCanuck, i just know how i want it to operate. | 08:12 |

| hunj | I have an IBM Laptop with 8.04 installed in it. When I press the volume control button (not the shortcut but the keyboard feature), the volume changes but the indicator does not show up as it did on 6.06, nor the volume controller's volume % changes. What should I do? | 08:12 |
| UberCanuck | opop, is it being editing at 2 locations, or just 1 then replicated to the 2nd location (like a report, read-only server) | 08:12 |
| blankthebiggerpc | Sure fde, brb gotta give my laptop the lan cable... | 08:12 |

| benovic | what can that be? http://img385.imageshack.us/my.php?image=bildschirmfotoxc1.png | 08:13 |
| UberCanuck | opop, cluster, mysql i think is the only open rdbms with that - else you will need to pay $ | 08:13 |
| opop | UberCanuck, then lucky for me mysql is an option! I'll do the reading, muchas gracias | 08:13 |
| opop | UberCanuck, we _have_ spoken before, si? | 08:14 |
| UberCanuck | opop, been doing rdbms for many years, starting on oracle, its my forte | 08:14 |
| fde | benovic: it is Pidgin. | 08:14 |
| qwiksand | UberCanuck> so go back to the desktop? remember that i'm in the folder, does it matter? | 08:14 |
| lartza_ | How do I see my ip (external)? | 08:14 |
| UberCanuck | opop, don't think so | 08:14 |
| benovic | fde, look upper right corner | 08:14 |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, terminal | 08:14 |
| lartza_ | Where ppl should connect when I have apache | 08:15 |
| benovic | fde: and bar | 08:15 |
| UberCanuck | lartza_, you mean ipmasq from another box? or your interface, /sbin/ifconfig | 08:15 |
| benovic | it seems my laptop gets 2 screens displayed at once | 08:15 |
| fde | benovic: ahh... that is a bug in the 'intel' driver I think... | 08:15 |
| mystic | bazhang dont have Restricted Driver Manager from System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager | 08:15 |
| opop | UberCanuck, oh, ok. my bad. that's really cool, though. think you might have some time tomorrow to help troubleshoot if i can't get it running right? | 08:15 |
| GT64 | patifa: it looks like it worked. for some reason when I next ran sudo whilst aptitude was running it worked | 08:15 |
| qwiksand | <UberCanuck> nevermind, its finished | 08:15 |
| benovic | fde: its intel, right | 08:15 |
| bazhang | mystic that is for gutsy; you are in hardy then? | 08:16 |
| mystic | yep | 08:16 |
| fde | bazhang: what is the factoid for bad virtual monitor resolution? | 08:16 |
| mystic | thought i said :) | 08:16 |
| UberCanuck | opop, nope, throwing a suprise part of my son - turns 10. i'm not on here too often, thought to do so tonight as rails was making my eyes crossed | 08:16 |
| bazhang | fde resfix iirc | 08:16 |
| lartza_ | I maen the one ipaddress that doesnt start with 192.* and where other people can connect. | 08:16 |
| qwiksand | <UberCanuck> ready to go, whats next? | 08:16 |
| fde | benovic: It is due to it giving you a smaller virtual monitor resolution than actual resolution... | 08:16 |
| benovic | fde: i already installed 915resolution and RUandR ... still doesnt work | 08:16 |
| opop | my son just turned 10, UberCanuck, congrats. he's still alive, you're doin it right. | 08:16 |
| fde | !resfix > benovic | 08:16 |
| bazhang | mystic now it is hardware drivers | 08:17 |
| opop | UberCanuck, right on. the docs are out there, I'm sure--i'm still in yer debt! have fun tomorrow. | 08:17 |
| UberCanuck | opop, if that wsa the only criteria!? :-) | 08:17 |

| UberCanuck | opop, careful with primary keys with multi-master, i'd suggest guid | 08:18 |
| opop | goin back down to install, then lop off its head and bring it back upstairs. | 08:18 |
| lartza_ | What is my external ip? | 08:18 |
| benovic | !fde: thank you, i'll check that | 08:18 |
| ubottu | benovic: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 08:18 |
| qwiksand | <UberCanuck> finished the installation | 08:18 |
| kindofabuzz | will installing a .rpm using alien resolve deps? or do i need to convert it? | 08:18 |
| bazhang | opps fde its fixres | 08:18 |
| opop | UberCanuck, i will keep that in mind. | 08:18 |
| UberCanuck | opop, stay away from concatonated pk, ranges are messy, alternating is okay | 08:18 |
| lemon | hello. I am using Xubuntu 8.04. Can anyone tell me what I need to install in order to watch DVD? I cannot watch any dvds.. | 08:18 |
| === mystic is now known as Dryrd | ||
| bazhang | kindofabuzz: expect breakage | 08:19 |
| fde | bazhang: Alright, thanks. | 08:19 |
| lartza_ | lemon: libdvdcss2 | 08:19 |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, just tried the next command, still not working, sec, missing a library | 08:19 |
| opop | UberCanuck, _nnnnnyyyyoooooowmmmm_ right over my head | 08:19 |
| lartza_ | lemon: from medibuntu | 08:19 |
| lartza_ | !medibuntu | 08:19 |
| ubottu | medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 08:19 |
| UberCanuck | opop, sec, i have a link | 08:19 |
| lemon | lartza_, thanks man. :) will try and will let you know | 08:19 |
| Chrysalis | any idea why my back and forward mouse buttons dont work in nautilus? | 08:19 |
| UberCanuck | opop, sorry, wrong box, don't have it readily avail | 08:19 |
| opop | UberCanuck, no worries. | 08:20 |
| benovic | sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 08:20 |
| benovic | oops :) | 08:20 |
| Dr_willis | lemon, i just did the 2 commands at http://lifehacker.com/350015/enable-dvd-playback-in-ubuntu-in-two-commands | 08:20 |
| kindofabuzz | bazhang: well i want kvirc but all i can find is rpms, don't wanna compile it, last time i did i kept geting the kde tray icon as a window in gnome, even tried different configure flags | 08:20 |
| lartza_ | Could someone test out that my apache works? 80.223.75.145 | 08:20 |
| kindofabuzz | the 3.4 kvirc | 08:20 |
| UberCanuck | kindofabuzz, apt-cache search alien | 08:20 |
| fde | bazhang: That looks complicated, but pay special attn to the changes to xorg.conf relating to "Modes" and the "Options" section... | 08:20 |
| opop | it'll probably take me most of the day tomorrow getting the one server just right, then i can work on getting the failover to the other box across town working | 08:21 |
| kindofabuzz | UberCanuck: i know about alien, i was just asking will it work good | 08:21 |
| bazhang | kindofabuzz: kvirc and kvirc2 are in the hardy repos | 08:21 |
| * opop shudders at alien | 08:21 | |
| UberCanuck | kindofabuzz, i haven't had trouble in years | 08:21 |
| UberCanuck | kindofabuzz, though, i don't use it often | 08:21 |
| Wizard | hi | 08:21 |
| * opop remembers old rh/debian/alien dependency hell | 08:21 | |
| Tom47 | how is the listing of partitions not on fstab in "Places" and in nautilus achied eg 80.0 gb Media | 08:21 |
| blankthemuffin | Argh still failing | 08:21 |
| qwiksand | <UberCanuck> can we continue this in the morning? will u be here? | 08:21 |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, might be on your own, sorry, heading offline soon | 08:21 |
| fde | kindofabuzz: kvirc is in Ubuntu universe... why do you need the RPM? | 08:21 |
| kindofabuzz | UberCanuck: kvirc owns all irc progs =) | 08:21 |
| UberCanuck | qwiksand, sorry no, son's surprise b-day party | 08:22 |
| Wizard | is there a way to install only 'ubuntu-minimal' ? | 08:22 |
| kindofabuzz | fde: because i want kvirc 3.4 | 08:22 |
| qwiksand | <UberCanuck> ok, congrats | 08:22 |
| Wizard | i don't need gui and applications :) | 08:22 |
| UberCanuck | Wizard, yes, use the minimal or server cd | 08:22 |
| Wizard | \o/ | 08:22 |
| danny | what on earth do I have to do to make "expo" show only the current workspace with all my open windows nicely arranged and waiting to be selected? now, if I move my pointer to the top-right corner it will show all of my 4 workspaces and I don't want that... | 08:22 |
| Wizard | great | 08:22 |
| fde | kindofabuzz: then your only option is alien ... | 08:22 |
| bazhang | Wizard: sure get the minimal iso (9mb) | 08:22 |
| opop | kindofabuzz, even if it's not in the repos, someone's got to have a 3.4 deb somewhere | 08:22 |
| UberCanuck | Wizard, sorry, alternate cd | 08:22 |
| Wizard | is it available for powerc? | 08:22 |
| kindofabuzz | opop: yeah i been looking, so far no luck | 08:23 |
| UberCanuck | Wizard, not sure, used to be | 08:23 |
| opop | danny, i don't think that's what expo does. | 08:23 |
| Wizard | ok, i'm gonna look for it | 08:23 |
| danny | then what? :) | 08:23 |
| Wizard | thanks :) | 08:23 |
| bazhang | danny scale plugin | 08:23 |
| Dryrd | anyone point me to a tutorial that will help me get nvidia working under Hardy - I have tried everything i can think of and all it does is reboot | 08:23 |
| blankthemuffin | Ok my X server is still trashed after a reinstall ideas?? | 08:24 |
| opop | danny, why don't you download, compile, and make a deb? | 08:24 |
| Tom47 | what mechanism does ubuntu use to list partition in places (when they are not incl in fstab)? | 08:24 |
| fde | !nvidia > Dryrd | 08:24 |
| harris | zionpsyferrrrr r u there | 08:24 |
| opop | Tom47, you could do a gparted and just hit 'p' at the prompt | 08:24 |
| blankthemuffin | ooh I know, I still have an older binary installer | 08:24 |
| UberCanuck | kindofabuzz, debian has kvirc, you can grab the spec and source and rebuild if you want on ubuntu | 08:25 |
| hunj | I have an IBM Laptop with 8.04 installed in it. When I press the volume control button (not the shortcut but the keyboard feature), the volume changes but the indicator does not show up as it did on 6.06, nor the volume controller's volume % changes. What should I do? | 08:25 |
| UberCanuck | kindofabuzz, surprised its not in a repo if deb has it | 08:25 |
| danny | oh man... it was there. the humanity! :) thanks opop. i din't see the forest because of the trees. I was so sure it was expo's job, i din't bother to look somewhere else | 08:25 |
| kindofabuzz | UberCanuck: i have built it before, when i do i get the KDE tray icon as a seperate window, i use gnome | 08:25 |
| fde | UberCanuck: Debian/Ubuntu only has 3.2.x ... he wants 3.4 for whatever reason. | 08:26 |
| kindofabuzz | UberCanuck: 3.2.4 is in repos yeah, not 3.4.0 | 08:26 |
| UberCanuck | kindofabuzz, ah, then try ./configure by hand, see if there are options for gnome | 08:26 |
| kindofabuzz | UberCanuck: i've been through several configure flags | 08:26 |
| UberCanuck | kindofabuzz, 3.4.0 is on debian | 08:26 |
| opop | danny; right on, where was it? | 08:26 |
| UberCanuck | kindofabuzz, ah, then you know more than I, sorry | 08:26 |
| blankthemuffin | woot fixed it! | 08:26 |
| kindofabuzz | how would i get it from Debian? | 08:26 |
| opop | dang, wish i would have seen what danny found | 08:27 |
| benovic | fde: I have the newest intel drivers, no help here... my xorg.conf looks like it hasn't detected anything: http://pastebin.com/m454c24a5 | 08:27 |
| fde | kindofabuzz: you can add a sid deb-src line to sources.list and build it from the Debian package... might get you better results... | 08:27 |
| bazhang | kindofabuzz: you will likely break things if you dont know what you are doing | 08:27 |
| kindofabuzz | i'm gonna try the rpm first | 08:27 |
| UberCanuck | kindofabuzz, grab the spec and src from debian.org, packages search area | 08:27 |
| fde | benovic: yeah... add those things rather than have it try to auto-detect... obviously the auto-detection is failing for you ;) | 08:28 |
| bazhang | kindofabuzz: antying outside the repos is at your own risk you know | 08:28 |
| kindofabuzz | i'll be back, need to uninstall this version and configs | 08:28 |
| benovic | fde: and the built in display resolution wizard is displaying both screens over another | 08:28 |
| Tom47 | opop ... sorry i dnt think i was clear there .... i have partitions not included in fstab yet ubuntu is lesting them under "Places" as does Nautilus ... how is this done? | 08:29 |
| fde | benovic: ok... do what that page explains please. | 08:29 |
| benovic | fde: i dont really want to mess around with xorg.conf every time i attach an external monitor :( | 08:29 |
| benovic | fde: well, i'll di anyway | 08:30 |
| benovic | do it | 08:30 |
| fde | benovic: It has nothing to do with monitor being used, fwiw | 08:30 |
| opop | Tom47, if they're mounted (like on /media/sdxy) and you want information on what partition is mounted where, you can check out /etc/mtab. HAL handles partitions that are not in mtab, and it gets the information from the kernel somehow | 08:30 |
| UberCanuck | night all... | 08:30 |
| opop | Tom47, *handles partitions that aren't in fstab, rather | 08:30 |
| moon` | Okay, I just shut ubuntu down using #sudo shutdwon now -P | when I rebooted my screen resolution is set to 800x600 instead of 1600x1200 | 08:30 |
| opop | night UberCanuck | 08:30 |
| moon` | what's the deal? | 08:30 |
| fde | benovic: if you want a guided way, you can try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg' and explicitly define a resolution. | 08:31 |
| moon` | and how do If ix it | 08:31 |
| Tom47 | opop ty will try and get my understadning upgraded on that ... you have given me the leads | 08:31 |
| fde | moon`: you can try the command I just said too :) | 08:31 |
| opop | Tom47, right on! my understanding is limited--but then, i don't really need to know how HAL works | 08:31 |
| opop | Tom47, mtab is formatted just like fstab, except without the user friendly spaces in between stuff--but all the stuff comes in the same order. | 08:32 |
| fde | benovic: moon`: If you don't know the right setting, just hit enter, for the questions that confuse you | 08:32 |
| rangef1nder | which nvidia driver works with 8.04? | 08:32 |
| siliciao | Hi folks, I've just installed Ubuntu 8.04 on my VIA STA fanless workstation on a Sandisc Cruiser 16GB USB stick. (Thanks for supporting booting from USB, by the way.) The system boots up OK, but then it hangs during X login. (it displays the background and a mouse pointer, but no menus and widgets.) Any ideas what might be going wrong? Thanks for your help. | 08:32 |
| Quintin | I'm having some trouble with ssh X forwarding.. DISPLAY is not set it says. any advice? | 08:32 |
| Tom47 | opop my prob is i have several partitions the same size and the HAL descriptions dont seem to help so i prob will have to add them to fstab with unique external descriptions | 08:32 |
| moon` | 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg | 08:32 |
| lartza_ | Could someone test my apache? 80.223.75.145 | 08:33 |
| opop | i'm headed downstairs for a minoot. see y'all later. | 08:33 |
| moon` | I typed that in and it didn't do anything :/ | 08:33 |
| opop | Tom47, look into labeling the partitions | 08:33 |
| moon` | xserver-xorg postinst warning: overwriting possibly-customised configuration | 08:33 |
| moon` | file; backup in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.20080504013232 | 08:33 |
| moon` | that was the read out | 08:33 |
| opop | Tom47, pretty sure the ubuntu kernel handles that pretty well. | 08:33 |
| Reaminator | can anyone recommend a book that takes you through linux/unix all the way from basics to advanced topics? what I can't really seem to find is a book that isn't either too basic or too advanced | 08:33 |
| siliciao | Quntin, You can try "ssh -X" | 08:33 |
| fde | moon`: ahh... that is fine... but do '-plow' ... oops, it'll actually ask things then :) | 08:33 |
| Tom47 | o[o[ ah ok thats an idea too | 08:34 |
| bennyf11 | Hey is there anyone who can assist me with installing a LAMP server with PHPmyadmin. I have tried every way i know and cant figure it out | 08:34 |
| opop | bennyf11, should be pretty straightforward. there's a lamp howto on the ubuntu wiki | 08:34 |
| opop | and phpmyadmin should be a drop-in kind of thing | 08:34 |
| opop | iirc, bennyf11 | 08:34 |
| fde | benovic: you too, you want -plow if you do the dpkg-reconfigure command I said... I got the priority settings back to front | 08:34 |
| Bricker | having a problem getting openssh-server | 08:35 |
| Bricker | "Package openssh-server is not available, but is referred to by another package" etc etc | 08:35 |
| fde | benovic: In your case though, it's harder if you've edited the file by hand already. | 08:35 |
| bazhang | Reaminator: this is ubuntu support channel--> try #ubuntu-offtopic thanks | 08:35 |
| bennyf11 | opop: im using 8.04 desktop, i have installed apache and php5, i can create a phptest.php file but nothing else works | 08:35 |
| asubedi | how to find out rpm of your hard drive? | 08:35 |
| kindofabuzz | well so far so good using alien | 08:37 |
| Bricker | do I HAVE to get the server edition to get openssh-server? or can I install it on the desktop edition? | 08:37 |
| moon` | brb | 08:37 |
| kovrt | reaminator: books are paper and heavy ; Google! | 08:38 |
| bennyf11 | opop: i am using desktop edition, and i cannot find the wiki article | 08:38 |
| velko | lartza_, i can't ping it | 08:38 |
| bazhang | !lamp | bennyf11 | 08:38 |
| ubottu | bennyf11: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 08:38 |
| moon` | Bah, I'm still stuck in 800x600 mode, what else should I try aside from that last command you said fde? | 08:38 |
| fde | moon`: Try the last command I told you, then restart X | 08:38 |
| moon` | I did just restart | 08:38 |
| fde | moon`: using -plow | 08:39 |
| blankthemuffin | So what we have learned today: The latest nvidia drivers totally fail with the 8600M GT and Ubuntu 7.10 | 08:39 |
| lartza_ | Nobody can't connect to my computer exept those that are connected to same router. How can I fix this? | 08:39 |
| moon` | yes using -plow | 08:39 |
| moon` | What was the command again | 08:39 |
| moon` | Lemme try one more thing | 08:39 |
| fde | moon`: Is it at least listed now in System > Preferences > Screen Resolution? | 08:39 |
| Aprilis | How do I get .torrent files to open with Deluge rather than Transmission? | 08:39 |
| fde | moon`: That doesn't configure for X itself though, only that user. | 08:40 |
| bazhang | right click properties Aprilis | 08:40 |
| lartza_ | Aprilis: remove Transmission? | 08:40 |
| moon` | fde, yeah the screen resolution was listed before but I only have two options, 800x600 or 640x480 | 08:40 |
| Aprilis | bazhang: Properties under what? | 08:40 |
| velko | lartza_, make sure your firewall does not block traffic. make sure your router routes the incomming packets on port 80 to your machine | 08:40 |
| kindofabuzz | Aprilis: in your browser settings or prefered apps | 08:40 |
| moon` | It's like when I first booted, like it's not detecting any video drivers | 08:40 |
| moon` | well when I first installed I mean | 08:40 |
| bazhang | Aprilis: right click properties open with (click on torrent file) | 08:40 |
| lartza_ | velko: No firewall, I think, haven't configured any on ubuntu. adn port 80 is forwarded to this computers internal ip | 08:41 |
| Aprilis | bazhang: kindofabuzz: No, I've done that. That's not the problem. The problem is, directly from a torrent site, I can't default open the torrent directly with Deluge anymore, ever since upgrading to Hardy. I can save the file and THEN click on it to open with Deluge, but it won't do it directly anymore and Deluge is not an option when I click "open with other" it's only Transmission. | 08:41 |
| bennyf11 | opop: i have followed those instructions, I have a server which shows a PHP. my issue is that i cannot get phpmyadmin to work on it | 08:41 |
| Aprilis | Like, what I used to do is just click on a torrent from a torrent site and it would automatically open with Deluge. Now I do it, and it says "Open with" and Transmission is the only option. Deluge isn't even listed. | 08:42 |
| fde | Aprilis: In Firefox: Edit > Preferences > "Applications" tab | 08:43 |
| moon` | any ideas/suggestions? | 08:43 |
| kindofabuzz | Aprilis: you need to point it to /usr/bin/deluge or wherever deluge is | 08:43 |
| lartza_ | moon: Changed monitor? | 08:43 |
| moon` | no, changed resolution and I can't get it to go back to the original screen resolution | 08:44 |
| moon` | and all I did was shutdown with the command #sudo shutdown now -P | 08:44 |
| Aprilis | kindofabuzz: I tried that but I don't know where it is. I don't know what the file ending is supposed to be. It was always .exe for windows. | 08:44 |
| Aprilis | fde: I'm there now. | 08:44 |
| lartza_ | moon: Then no idea, well you could reconfigure X | 08:44 |
| kindofabuzz | it won't have a file extension | 08:44 |
| moon` | how? | 08:44 |
| Wizard | hmm, i've found only 'server edition' image | 08:44 |
| notis | I'm trying to install a tarbal which contains rpm packages. I converted all of them except one to deb using alien. But I can't convert libstdc++34-3.4.0.1.i386.rpm. I found libstdc++6 in ubuntu repositories. Where can I find libstdc++34? | 08:44 |
| Wizard | does it allow to select individual packages? | 08:45 |
| fde | Aprilis: 'which deluge' to find where it is. | 08:45 |
| Aprilis | fde: I typed "which deluge" but nothing is happening. | 08:45 |
| nano_ | anyone here have a hp dv2000 series laptop? | 08:45 |
| Aprilis | fde: I just tried "deluge" but still nothing. | 08:46 |
| fde | Aprilis: dpkg -L deluge | grep bin ? | 08:46 |
| carlosczg | hi there | 08:46 |
| kindofabuzz | Aprilis: preferances > applications > find the torrent, click use other, browse to /usr/bin/deluge | 08:46 |
| lartza_ | moon: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 08:46 |
| lartza_ | moon: but that configures some other stuff too | 08:46 |
| fde | kindofabuzz: That won't maintain the setting. | 08:46 |
| carlosczg | someone help where can i find my ndiswrapper config for ubuntu? | 08:47 |
| kindofabuzz | fde: why won't i? | 08:47 |
| kindofabuzz | it | 08:47 |
| Aprilis | kindofabuzz: There is no "applications" under "preferences" unless you're not talking about my computer? | 08:47 |
| fde | carlosczg: ndisgtk | 08:47 |
| kindofabuzz | Aprilis: i'm talking about Firefox | 08:47 |
| Aprilis | fde: Where am I supposed to be typing this? | 08:47 |
| kindofabuzz | assuming you're using FF | 08:47 |
| carlosczg | hi fde .. could u be more specific plz... | 08:47 |
| LMJ | hi | 08:47 |
| fde | kindofabuzz: It will always ask, but pick deluge first. | 08:47 |
| fde | carlosczg: sudo apt-get install ndisgtk | 08:47 |
| kindofabuzz | fde: not if you set it to use other | 08:47 |
| fde | Aprilis: In a terminal | 08:47 |
| Aprilis | kindofabuzz: click "use other" under where? :/ | 08:47 |
| bazhang | Aprilis: you may as well use rtorrent if you want true automation | 08:48 |
| kindofabuzz | Aprilis: preferenes | 08:48 |
| fde | kindofabuzz: There is no "do this everytime" check box afaik | 08:48 |
| Aprilis | kindofabuzz: I'm there. | 08:48 |
| Aprilis | kindofabuzz: I'm under preferences and applications, but I don't know where I'm supposed to find "use other" | 08:48 |
| LMJ | question around fetchmail/procmail : fetchmail pick up my emails from a remote pop3 server but delivery them on /var/mail/~ instead of the rule i've put in /etc/procmailrc to put them in ~/mail/INBOX do you know where could be the issue ? | 08:48 |
| kindofabuzz | Aprilis: now find bittorrend seed file | 08:49 |
| kindofabuzz | Aprilis: then on the right part hit the scroll thing and select use other | 08:49 |
| Aprilis | kindofabuzz: I got it! Thanks! | 08:49 |
| kindofabuzz | or deluge if it's there | 08:49 |
| fabio | posso chedere aiuto cortesemente?? | 08:50 |
| carlosczg | oh thnax FDE...now i got to try with the system>wireless network ...is tath ok? | 08:50 |
| bullgard4 | What files comprise the 'index' of Tracker? (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tracker/+bug/211149) | 08:50 |
| Imaginal | Does anyone else have the problem of youtube videos closing firefox quite regularly? | 08:50 |
| kindofabuzz | Aprilis: now that will only work if you use FF to d/l the torrent, if you use something esle to download it and try to open it you'd have to set deluge in prefered appps i think | 08:50 |
| notis | anyone knows what's libstdc++34? | 08:51 |
| bazhang | Imaginal: that is a bug from adobe there is a workaround however | 08:51 |
| Aprilis | kindofabuzz: Yeah, I always use Firefox, so no problem! :) | 08:51 |
| carlosczg | its my first time here..n my english s not very well..so .. sorry =/ | 08:51 |
| Imaginal | bazhang: I'm all ears :) | 08:51 |
| fde | carlosczg: no... there should be a new tool in System > Administration like "Windows Wireless Device" | 08:51 |
| patifa | carlosczg: There's other Ubuntu help changes in other languages. | 08:51 |
| bazhang | hang on Imaginal let me get a link | 08:51 |
| patifa | err... | 08:51 |
| carlosczg | oh yeah..you are right.. | 08:52 |

| carlosczg | fde triying.. got it? | 08:58 |
| fde | carlosczg: use tab completion so you don't need to type the whole thing. | 08:58 |
| fde | carlosczg: yup | 08:58 |
| bazhang | carlosczg: just type first three letters or so then hit tab key then enter | 08:58 |

| carlosczg | fde, nice.. thanx.. | 08:59 |

| fde | pen: that one worked :) | 08:59 |
| prince_jammys | hehe. thing is both of you have really short nicknames | 08:59 |
| pen | fde: I know how to do that, but about the red color... | 08:59 |
| bazhang | not worth the tab ;] | 09:00 |
| fde | pen: It'll be red for the recipient... you can set other words to trigger on in XChat too, and they'll be red too | 09:00 |
| pen | fde: but mine is only yellow on the name the message is just plain black | 09:00 |
| fde | pen: What client? | 09:01 |
| pen | fde: xchat gnome | 09:01 |
| fde | pen: Meh... I use real XChat | 09:01 |
| prince_jammys | you can most likely change that in the settings of your client. | 09:01 |

| ktorvalds26 | fde: mmk aptitude is working | 09:29 |
| bullgard4 | Randocal: If running the program 'update-manager' in the GNOME-Terminal did not produce any error messages, then try the comamnd 'apt-get install <package_name>' in order to narrow down the possible causes and to see if the apt-get mechanism fucnctions on your computer. | 09:29 |
| cyka | but i didn't seem to have these issues under 7.10 | 09:29 |
| Wilco | guys i have some applications OpenProj for example that misbehave with Compiz on (8.04) - i.e some windows it open do not include text. if i disable dekstop effects all is ok. any idea how can i solve this and keep compiz on | 09:29 |
| Wilco | OpenProj is java based | 09:29 |

| cyka | i just had a wavering moment and thaught i'd try installing XP lol | 09:32 |
| cyka | took an age | 09:32 |
| Wilco | question number 2: eth0 is on a static ip at work. wireless is on roaming, however when i get back to work the DNS settings in /etc/resolv.conf are not restored to the wired network coniguration. how do i teach ubuntu 8.04 to properly switch interfaces. | 09:32 |
| ktorvalds26 | prince_jammys: this was getting kinda irritating... glad you guys could help. thanks! that probably solves my other issues as well (such as not being able to find flash and java and other standard internet things) | 09:32 |
| cyka | and XP seem,ed to do more damage installing then anything else | 09:32 |
| timr92 | cyka, i was gonna say i was thinkin of doin that to my laptop | 09:32 |
| cyka | so back here | 09:32 |

| timr92 | cyka, i haven't tried, but i was thinking it is more polished (after sp2) than this release of ubuntu | 09:32 |
| prince_jammys | ktorvalds26: i still don't understand why apt-get doesn't work | 09:33 |
| fde | ktorvalds26: System > Administration > Software Sources ... make sure the top 4 checkbox's are checked please... then try again for those things. | 09:33 |
| timr92 | cyka, uhoh, lol | 09:33 |
| fde | ktorvalds26: after aptitude is done. | 09:33 |
| cyka | normally takes about 40 mins to an horu max to install | 09:33 |
| carlosczg | fde, i do the todo list in thath web page.. but..network manager.. doesnot appear ..not inn applications>internet... not in System>adminnistration.. | 09:33 |
| cyka | it took 2 nights | 09:33 |
| cyka | and it wasn't even finished | 09:33 |
| cyka | lol | 09:33 |
| timr92 | lol | 09:33 |
| carlosczg | fde, and yes..i just logged out and in.... | 09:33 |
| ktorvalds26 | prince_jammys: outdated repositories | 09:33 |
| cyka | something was wrong somewhere | 09:33 |
| fde | carlosczg: use the thing in the panel that looks like 2 computers | 09:33 |
| cyka | sincew this machine isn't TOO bad | 09:33 |
| prince_jammys | ktorvalds26: ah | 09:33 |
| cyka | yeah it's not great | 09:33 |
| timr92 | any1 managed to get modem working on Lenovo 3000 c200 ?? | 09:33 |
| cyka | but it's not toooooo bad | 09:34 |
| ktorvalds26 | prince_jammys: I didnt think of that before - updating was what fixed it | 09:34 |
| carlosczg | fde, well.. my wired conn its ok.. | 09:34 |
| cyka | i'm running a 1.35ghz duron with a gig of ram | 09:34 |
| Randocal | "sudo /etc/hosts" and "sudo su" both produce "sudo: unable to resolve host Basement" | 09:34 |
| timr92 | cyka, i'm sick of the lack of support of hardware vendors and the like | 09:34 |
| cyka | tho it is overclocked to 1512 mhz | 09:34 |
| bullgard4 | Randocal: This might be necessary in your particular network. I do not have to do that in one of my Ubuntu computers and still it works all right. | 09:34 |
| timr92 | cyka, and ubuntu kinda seems a bit of a toy, compared to xp | 09:35 |
| carlosczg | fde, my question its.. why i can see this Network Manager GUi.. like that web page gnome/proyects/networkmanager/// | 09:35 |
| fde | ktorvalds26: Once you enable Mutliverse, you'll be able to install 'flashplugin-nonfree gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg sun-java6-plugin' to get some plugins to work and media codecs | 09:35 |
| cyka | i want some games i get bored sat at my machine with not much other then chatting | 09:35 |
| ktorvalds26 | prince_jammys: kinda odd though - you'd think that the latest ubuntu download would have at least somewhat up-to-date repository links | 09:35 |
| Randocal | Does anyone know how I can fix my /etc/hosts to resolve properly if i'm unable to sudo and open my hosts file? | 09:35 |
| hgnism | whats the best way to schedule a reboot every day | 09:35 |
| ktorvalds26 | fde: thanks | 09:35 |
| prince_jammys | ktorvalds26: that's why i asked about automatix | 09:35 |
| fde | carlosczg: That is the NetworkManager GUI. | 09:35 |
| timr92 | cyka, although, i think i will stick with it ubuntu, anything is better than windoze, lol. i'd regret it in the long term i think | 09:35 |
| cyka | i know waht you mean tho | 09:35 |
| timr92 | cyka, alien arena is alright | 09:35 |
| carlosczg | fde, for wireless... where can i find it? | 09:35 |
| cyka | yeah | 09:35 |
| ktorvalds26 | fde: I was about to dump ubuntu altogether if this wasnt resolved... but its probably fine now :D | 09:35 |
| hgnism | is crontab recommended? | 09:36 |
| fde | ktorvalds26: DVD's is gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly also | 09:36 |
| cyka | but it's just a quake rip off | 09:36 |
| cyka | and i gt bored of that sorta stuff so quickly timr92 | 09:36 |
| timr92 | cyka, ya.. i dont like it, i get angry with it | 09:36 |
| cyka | i want a nice strategy game | 09:36 |
| fde | carlosczg: I told you already, the 2 computers looking think in the panel... in a terminal type 'nm-applet &' if you don't see it. | 09:36 |
| timr92 | cyka, me 2 | 09:36 |
| timr92 | cyka, it seemed alright to start with, but ya | 09:36 |

| smmagic | thanks | 09:37 |
| timr92 | cyka, lol, i took a while to figure out freeciv | 09:38 |
| william_ | how would I get age of empires III working on here? | 09:38 |
| timr92 | cyka, i still dont even no if i have figured it | 09:38 |

| cyka | i had mine runnig at 175 mhz | 09:39 |

| fde | casdf: please elaborate, what troubles? any error messages? | 09:39 |
| casdf | specifically, it gets stuck at 84% in loading kernel when i try to do anyting | 09:39 |
| Randocal | I think I have a "chicken and egg" kinda problem. When I attempt to sudo I get an "unable to resolve host Basement" the solution on my other system was to add basement to the hosts file, but when I attemp to sudo and make the change to the hosts file I get a cannot resolv error. Anyone know how I can approach this? | 09:39 |
| Flannel | brakkvatn: What do you mean "doesn't work"? | 09:39 |
| kate443 | when i am trying to run some program from the command line i get an error "cannot execute binary file" ? | 09:39 |
| timr92 | cyka, lol, i'm too yong to know much about them, or to look forward to using it | 09:39 |
| timr92 | lol | 09:39 |
| segfault | casdf: is the cd written properly | 09:40 |
| casdf | anything as in, using livecd, installing, checking disk for errors... | 09:40 |
| Flannel | Randocal: reboot to the recovery console (at GRUB) | 09:40 |
| timr92 | cyka, i mean, to have looked foward, when they were around | 09:40 |
| Flannel | !hostname | Randocal | 09:40 |
| ubottu | Randocal: Use hostname <somehostname> to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts . WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. Alternatively, use the gui at system>administration>networking on the "General" tab | 09:40 |
| cyka | timr92: i'm on 23 i'm one of the youngest in the amiga cdomunity | 09:40 |
| carlosczg | fed, ok...from this point.... if im in a wifi range...the list should include with this wifi network? | 09:40 |
| casdf | it md5'ed fine, but i didn't check the cd for correct burn >< | 09:40 |
| casdf | hmm. actually, lemme try the cd on this comp | 09:40 |
| cyka | it's kinda fun | 09:40 |
| carlosczg | fed, coz cant see that T_T | 09:40 |
| fde | kate443: what binary? | 09:40 |
| segfault | casdf: are you able to boot completely from live CD | 09:40 |
| ktorvalds26 | low-power ubuntu domain controller? anyone? help? :( | 09:40 |
| cyka | but i'm kinda bored of them too | 09:40 |
| Randocal | The hostname command requires me to be root, which I can't do. | 09:40 |
| cyka | not enough tok do | 09:40 |
| timr92 | cyka, well i'm 16 so there | 09:40 |
| GoSox | hey | 09:40 |
| Wilco | guys can you help with static wireless eth0 and roaming wireless ? | 09:41 |
| casdf | i am unable to boot or do anything at all with the cd past the inital screen | 09:41 |
| Flannel | Randocal: The recovery console. | 09:41 |
| cyka | although there are so kickass games on tehre | 09:41 |
| timr92 | lol\ | 09:41 |
| Wilco | im going crazy here | 09:41 |
| cyka | retro games | 09:41 |
| GoSox | i'm trying to install Ubuntu on a MacBook, anyone ever do this before? | 09:41 |
| casdf | 8.04, amd64 desktop btw. | 09:41 |
| cyka | but yeah | 09:41 |
| fde | ktorvalds26: like a windows domain? or dns? | 09:41 |
| Flannel | Randocal: or, `sudo -i` and then do them both in that window. | 09:41 |
| Randocal | Does booting into recovery console just log me in as root automatically? | 09:41 |
| cyka | as for anything else they are pretty useless timr92 | 09:41 |
| Flannel | Randocal: Yes | 09:41 |
| ktorvalds26 | fde: just a home network, but I MUST have roaming profiles | 09:41 |
| timr92 | cyka, when was they around? | 09:41 |
| Flannel | Randocal: Or, more precisely, it boots to single user mode | 09:41 |
| rian | Hi all. Recently installed Ubuntu 8.04 on an Acer Travelmate 5620. Works like a charm. The only outstanding issue is that I can not play media DVD's. I have tried all I have in my posession at the moment (a full 2, just moved.) When I do a "hdparm /dev/dvd" I get a few "Inappropriate ioctl for device" messages. Where would be a good point to start searching for a solution (tried google)? | 09:41 |
| segfault | then i am sure the something must have screwed up while writing tot he disk.....but you can ask around to confirm | 09:41 |
| cyka | they died sometime in the 90's | 09:41 |
| Randocal | Flannel: Sudo -i also generates cannot resolve. I'll try the recovery console and see what it gives me. | 09:41 |
| casdf | can i md5 the cd after burn, with windows? | 09:41 |
| timr92 | i start using normal computers when i was er, 7 or 8, and i 16 | 09:42 |
| Flannel | Randocal: you'd need to sudo -i before doing either of them. | 09:42 |
| timr92 | cyka, that explains y i dont remember them, or have never used them | 09:42 |
| segfault | casdf: i am not sure of if you can | 09:42 |
| timr92 | lol | 09:42 |
| cyka | fomr the late 70's to the 90's i think | 09:42 |
| cyka | hehe | 09:42 |
| casdf | attempting to with windows. | 09:42 |
| cyka | fair enough | 09:42 |
| segfault | casdf: but you should be able to check it during the boot process | 09:42 |
| timr92 | cyka, k, lol | 09:42 |
| cyka | i did have one sitting downstairs | 09:42 |
| casdf | so when i try that, it gets stuck at 84% linux kernel loaded. | 09:42 |
| Randocal | i'll have to be able to sudo while in recovery mode/ | 09:42 |
| cyka | but i got rid of it | 09:42 |
| Flannel | Randocal: No. Recovery console is single user mode, you're root. | 09:43 |
| timr92 | cyka, i only remember windoze 3.11 and upwards | 09:43 |
| cyka | ooooo | 09:43 |
| Randocal | Ok, back in a bit. I'm gonna try it. | 09:43 |
| cyka | i remember 3.11 | 09:43 |
| Flannel | cyka, timr92, Please take the chatting to #ubuntu-offtopic | 09:43 |

| fde | ktorvalds26: you can set up NFS to host the /home files on each system... I can't recall a simpler version of BIND right now... I thought there was tinydns, but it's not in my repo :/ | 09:44 |
| ek247 | hello ubuntu family | 09:44 |
| === Hac__am is now known as hac_am | ||
| fde | ktorvalds26: BIND is likely sorta overkill... | 09:45 |
| ktorvalds26 | fde: hmm... o well. ill find it elsewhere. I have no problem installing outside of repos :D | 09:45 |
| ek247 | hello | 09:45 |

| freibooter | Hey :) | 09:47 |
| freibooter | I#m currently trying to follow this guid: | 09:48 |
| freibooter | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpSamba | 09:48 |
| ktorvalds26 | fde: seems djbdns is a bit smaller/faster/better (we have the technology!) than BIND | 09:48 |
| fde | ktorvalds26: Google isn't being very helpful currently... you'll need to setup NIS though... | 09:48 |
| freibooter | Sadly I can't find either "System -> Administration -> Shared Folders" nor the "Windows Networking" setting in System -> Administration -> Network | 09:49 |
| freibooter | on Hardy 8.04 ? | 09:49 |
| fde | ktorvalds26: tinydns is a fork of djbdns because that maintainer sucks ;) | 09:49 |
| ek247 | so many people don't know who to talk to first | 09:49 |
| freibooter | Does anyone know where these settings went? | 09:49 |
| ktorvalds26 | fde: ah lol so ill go with tinydns then | 09:49 |
| benovic | !opensync > benovic | 09:49 |

| ek247 | april | 09:50 |
| ek247 | hi | 09:50 |
| AprilHare | i am having trouble getting out of 800 x 600 screenmode. I don't know quite why. help? :) | 09:50 |
| AprilHare | hello ek247 | 09:51 |
| segfault | freibooter: did you try system-> adminstration->samba | 09:51 |
| ek247 | are you new april | 09:51 |
| AprilHare | new motherboard and graphics card - geforce 8400 gs - and i ran envy and installed drivers | 09:51 |
| freibooter | Nope, not there either | 09:51 |
| AprilHare | ek247, not really just not a regular | 09:51 |
| freibooter | I installed samba | 09:51 |
| patifa | AprilHare: Do you happen to know the model of your monitor? | 09:51 |
| fde | ktorvalds26: dnsproxy even... | 09:52 |
| ek247 | ok april | 09:52 |
| freibooter | I'm trying to share my printer for my grilfriend's windows laptop | 09:52 |
| AprilHare | patifa, some mtv branded pos lcd tv from china | 09:52 |
| AprilHare | it can handle 1024 x 768 | 09:52 |
| carlosczg | everybody..i have a question..if im in a wifi network range.. , and i click on "network>edit wireless conn" it SHOULD be listed in thay list? | 09:52 |
| segfault | freibooter: I think you should try installing samba first. | 09:52 |
| fde | ktorvalds26: basically, you'll be a DNS for your domain... and you'll get DNS info from the ISP, and add the boxes within your network... via each of those... | 09:52 |
| AprilHare | patifa, in fact it worked with ubuntu fine beforehand | 09:52 |
| freibooter | It is | 09:52 |
| n2diy | Is there a GUI front end for ftape, that might work with an HP Colorado Tape drive? | 09:53 |
| ktorvalds26 | fde: ok cool | 09:53 |
| freibooter | tha samba packet is installed, I even rebooted afterwards | 09:53 |
| segfault | freibooter: sudo aptitude install samba | 09:53 |
| freibooter | installed via synpatic, but it shouldn't make a difference | 09:53 |
| ek247 | I think I am way out my leage here | 09:53 |
| ktorvalds26 | fde: then from there I can just map all home directories and such to this computer? | 09:53 |
| fde | ktorvalds26: I'm going to guess [tiny,djb]dns was dropped due to dnsproxy being superior, else use tinydns .... | 09:53 |
| abdul-rahmanIII | AprilHare: did you try to restart your computer since you installed the nvidia drivers? | 09:53 |
| fde | ktorvalds26: Using NIS, yes | 09:54 |
| ek247 | newbie help!!!! | 09:54 |
| prince_jammys | ek247: why don't you just ask your question? | 09:54 |
| AprilHare | abdul-rahmanIII, several times | 09:54 |
| fde | ktorvalds26: They'll also be authenticating to that box. | 09:54 |
| segfault | freibooter: did you try after restarting | 09:54 |
| freibooter | I just found "system-config-samba" ... I guess that would create the menu entry | 09:54 |
| abdul-rahmanIII | AprilHare: did you try sudo nvidia-xconfig ? | 09:54 |
| ek247 | didn't know anyone was listening | 09:54 |
| AprilHare | abdul-rahmanIII, having not known about this no but will do now :) | 09:54 |
| freibooter | Yes, now I have the "samba" entry | 09:55 |
| abdul-rahmanIII | AprilHare: do it // restart your x server | 09:55 |
| fde | freibooter: That is Red Hat/Fedora's Samba setup tool... | 09:55 |
| prince_jammys | ek247: it works like this: you describe your problem in detail, and if someone knows the answer, they answer you | 09:55 |
| ek247 | I want to see pics and music on my webpage | 09:55 |
| freibooter | And it crashes immediately ... | 09:55 |

| AprilHare | thanking ye | 10:01 |
| n2diy | I wish there was a Dapper 6.06 channel!? | 10:01 |
| fde | n2diy: ask here | 10:01 |
| === Paradokz is now known as Guardian | ||
| abdul-rahmanIII | AprilHare: try a sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings :) | 10:01 |
| fde | n2diy: Dapper is still supported. | 10:01 |
| === Guardian is now known as Paradokz | ||
| glick | flash plugin nonfree is installed it says | 10:01 |
| ek247 | the administer to do what | 10:01 |
| abdul-rahmanIII | AprilHare: then run it $ nvidia-settings | 10:02 |
| glick | but no youtube works | 10:02 |
| fde | ek247: install the plugins | 10:02 |
| prince_jammys | ek247: what do you mean by 'the computer stopped us' ? | 10:02 |
| AprilHare | abdul-rahmanIII, i believe it's already installed i'll run it now | 10:02 |
| n2diy | fde: roger that, but I'm wishing for a channel that only deals with Dapper. | 10:02 |
| fde | n2diy: Won't exist. | 10:02 |
| ek247 | the fake IE started freezing everything | 10:02 |
| Paradokz | Can't you register a channel for it? | 10:03 |
| patifa | abdul-rahmanIII: It should also appear in the applications lists then, too. | 10:03 |
| ek247 | no responce | 10:03 |
| glick | this sucks no youtube vids load | 10:03 |
| prince_jammys | ek247: so what did you do? | 10:03 |
| Myrtti | n2diy: this channel supports all the supported versions of Ubuntu | 10:03 |
| abdul-rahmanIII | glick: try a sudo apt-get install --reinstall flashplugin-nonfree | 10:03 |
| * Topocho ya regresa.... | 10:03 | |
| AprilHare | interesting it wasn't installed and i got a nice friendly message telling me how to install it :) | 10:03 |
| AprilHare | would have saved time just bloody installing it as a requirement | 10:03 |
| pushpop | when I run a command with sudo I get the following "sudo: unable to resolve host : any idea's? | 10:03 |

| prince_jammys | blah | 10:04 |
| ek247 | well the computer i am on is mine but the one we using was hers it would not even go online | 10:04 |
| abdul-rahmanIII | AprilHare: you can fine tune -- if you run from terminal as a user you will see :) I like it | 10:04 |
| pushpop | prince_jammys, ...? heh | 10:04 |
| prince_jammys | !hostname | pushpop | 10:04 |
| ubottu | pushpop: Use hostname <somehostname> to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts . WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. Alternatively, use the gui at system>administration>networking on the "General" tab | 10:04 |
| ek247 | we are using mine smaller and older cpu | 10:05 |
| abdul-rahmanIII | glick: does it work as another user? | 10:05 |
| n2diy | fde, Myrtti, roger that. An LTS channel would cut out a lot of noise for those of use not using the latest and "greatest" version. | 10:05 |
| abdul-rahmanIII | glick: or only on your account? | 10:05 |
| pushpop | prince_jammys, it's already set | 10:05 |
| glick | abdul-rahmanIII, i have no idea, i know that it worked and then it stopped working a few days ago even on ubuntu 7.10 i thought that the upgrade would fix it | 10:05 |
| n2diy | Is there a GUI front end for ftape, that might work with an HP Colorado Tape drive? | 10:05 |
| fde | n2diy: heh... #ubuntu-lts forwards here :) | 10:05 |

| abdul-rahmanIII | glick: that's what I WOULD DO | 10:08 |
| abdul-rahmanIII | glick: it's up to you | 10:08 |
| ek247 | it came with the O.S. you know ubuntu | 10:08 |
| prince_jammys | ek247: i hear that the internet explorer thing you installed can be problematic. ideally use firefox and install the flash plugin to view videos | 10:08 |
| ek247 | yes it was | 10:08 |
| ek247 | had the whole screen flashing | 10:09 |
| abdul-rahmanIII | glick: it looks like you have the flash plugin installed ok | 10:09 |
| prince_jammys | ek247: ok, but if you didn't have 'flash' installed then you were unable to view flash videos | 10:09 |

| qlty | okay thanks! | 10:24 |
| cashmoney | Hey guys, I just installed ubuntu server 6.06, and I was wondering how I go about finding available packages within the console via putty? | 10:24 |
| telexicon | qlty, why are you using wicd? | 10:24 |
| qlty | It is really complicated | 10:24 |

| telexicon | brunner, try it with cheese? | 10:24 |
| qlty | I heard the network manager isn't good for static IP's | 10:24 |
| ek247 | why can't I get the music player to play on my page | 10:24 |
| qlty | is there a better alternative? | 10:25 |

| brunner | ah, okay | 10:26 |
| brunner | cashmoney: so start with the webserver | 10:26 |

| brunner | adred: do that instead | 10:33 |

| Adys | Hey, i misclicked and almost uninstalled Grub in synaptic... how comes it didnt prompt me for any dependency? | 10:33 |
| telexicon | cashmoney, you can update the system to 8.04 with apt | 10:33 |
| brunner | adred: your normal username should show up when you type "whoami" and press enter | 10:34 |
| Adys | in the properties it says its still dependent of packages i have (memtest, etc) | 10:34 |

| telexicon | cashmoney, yes | 10:34 |

| blankthemuffin | My Xorg log file says this: "EE NVIDIA(0): FAILED TO LOAD THE NVIDIA KERNEL MODULE! *** ABORTING *** | 10:35 |
| brunner | adred: cd ~; mv .purple pidgin-old | 10:35 |
| cashmoney | telexicon: it says I'm already updated | 10:35 |
| cashmoney | but I don't see how | 10:35 |
| n2diy | Is there a GUI front end for ftape, that might work with an HP Colorado Tape drive? | 10:35 |
| brunner | adred: then install pidgin again and give it a shot | 10:35 |
| blankthemuffin | help? | 10:35 |
| adred | brunner successfully remove. installing pidgin now | 10:35 |
| telexicon | cashmoney, did you edit /etc/apt/sources.list ? | 10:36 |
| jojmoj | blank the muffin - install ur ndrivers properly | 10:36 |
| cashmoney | no | 10:36 |
| brunner | blankthemuffin: someone else here probably has more energy than me, but I would assume it's because of a binary driver special-compiled for a kernel version that you're not currently running | 10:36 |
| telexicon | cashmoney, you need to edit that file, change all the lines that reference dapper to hardy | 10:36 |
| telexicon | cashmoney, then you can update | 10:36 |
| blankthemuffin | jojmoj, how more properly do you want? I forced the kernel version to be uname -r | 10:36 |
| brunner | blankthemuffin: if I were you, I'd grab the latest binary drivers from nvidia and compile them for your current kernel | 10:36 |
| blankthemuffin | That's that I have done brunner | 10:37 |
| brunner | blankthemuffin: you went to the nvidia website, downloaded the installer for linux, ran it, and it installed fine? | 10:37 |
| blankthemuffin | Yes brunner | 10:38 |
| brunner | hm | 10:38 |
| blankthemuffin | Both the stable and beta releases have been tried | 10:38 |
| brunner | wild. I'm useless then. | 10:38 |
| cashmoney | great | 10:38 |
| cashmoney | it says not found now | 10:38 |
| brunner | blankthemuffin: try asking in #debian on OFTC. They're smarter. Just lie to them and tell them you're running debian stable. | 10:39 |
| brunner | cashmoney: what says not found? | 10:39 |
| blankthemuffin | haha | 10:39 |
| brunner | cashmoney: paste the exact message | 10:39 |
| telexicon | cashmoney, ok.. pastebin your sources.list file ok? ill rewrite it | 10:39 |
| cashmoney | brunner, I can't.. single click mouse | 10:39 |
| brunner | rofl | 10:39 |
| cashmoney | yeah yeah.. apple mouse | 10:40 |
| brunner | sell your mac on ebay and buy a PC so you can copy and paste. | 10:40 |
| cashmoney | I could shoot myself | 10:40 |
| cashmoney | I have a pc | 10:40 |
| brunner | shoot the mac. save yourself. | 10:40 |
| telexicon | cashmoney, highlight it.. and ctrl+shift+c | 10:40 |
| cashmoney | just not a keyboard and mouse | 10:40 |
| cashmoney | for the pc | 10:40 |
| telexicon | to copy | 10:40 |
| brunner | ah | 10:40 |
| brunner | yeah, I guess the keyboard shortcuts would work instead of shooting anything | 10:40 |
| brunner | not as much fun though, you should still consider shooting something | 10:40 |
| Paradokz | Must be a parent. | 10:40 |
| cashmoney | and they don't even work | 10:40 |
| cashmoney | because I'm working out of a terminal | 10:40 |
| brunner | huh? | 10:41 |
| brunner | should work fine | 10:41 |
| brunner | I know they work. | 10:41 |
| brunner | ctrl+shift+c to copy, ctrl+shift+v to paste | 10:41 |
| eugenix | is there someone here bychance, who might be somewhat of a wireless guru? | 10:41 |
| turbotoast | Sorry if I ask again, but could someone maybe help me out with my wlan installation? I followed the guides and am still not able to get it to work | 10:42 |
| brunner | eugenix: dude, just ask, so searchirc.com for "wireless" | 10:42 |
| cashmoney | brunner, it's a 404 error | 10:42 |
| blankthemuffin | Ask the question, don't ask to ask eugenix | 10:42 |
| brunner | cashmoney: wtf? 404 on a terminal? | 10:42 |
| cashmoney | like if it's not the correct link | 10:42 |
| brunner | cashmoney: dude, we've got problems | 10:42 |
| eugenix | thnx brunner | 10:42 |
| cashmoney | when I run apt-get date | 10:42 |
| brunner | eugenix: np | 10:42 |
| brunner | err | 10:42 |
| cashmoney | it's cause I changed the referrences like you said | 10:43 |
| telexicon | cashmoney, wait .. the sources.list file is wrong | 10:43 |
| askand | Is all the updates so far applied to the hardycdimage? | 10:43 |
| brunner | I meant, "or searchirc.com" not "so searchirc.com" | 10:43 |
| telexicon | cashmoney, can you pastebin it please? | 10:43 |
| eugenix | i'm going there now | 10:43 |
| brunner | telexicon: don't ruin it... I was getting to that | 10:43 |
| brunner | eugenix: I wasn't trying to discourage you from asking here | 10:43 |
| eugenix | can't get this internal atheros to work on my laptop with ubuntu | 10:43 |
| telexicon | eugenix, which laptop? | 10:43 |
| brunner | eugenix: chances are these are the must user-friendly geeks you'll run into on IRC | 10:44 |
| eugenix | hp dv6768 | 10:44 |
| eugenix | se | 10:44 |
| eugenix | tried sooooooo many different guides snapshots etc... | 10:44 |
| chell | okay I've got a weird "issue" here | 10:44 |
| chell | I'm runnying Hardy with an Nvidia card and nvidia drivers | 10:44 |
| turbotoast | eugenix: I have the same problem | 10:44 |
| chell | when I launch up firefox | 10:44 |
| telexicon | cashmoney, i can fix it in all of 20 seconds if you pastebin it | 10:44 |
| chell | sometimes there is a small white line on the left hand side of my screen that flashes | 10:44 |
| chell | just for a second or so | 10:44 |
| brunner | telexicon: I don't think we can pastebin | 10:44 |
| brunner | err | 10:44 |
| chell | I'm not running compiz | 10:44 |
| brunner | copy | 10:44 |
| adred | brunner: i think the problem is it takes too long for pidgin to connect to my xmpp account that's why it crashes when i click the tab options. never happened before. thanks anyway.. | 10:44 |
| eugenix | i think the prob is that i don't know how to uninstall what i tried to do before at that my be conflicting with whatever new stuff i try | 10:45 |
| chell | does that white line mean my screen is dying? | 10:45 |
| qwikk | chell: if it only happens when you run mozilla then probably not | 10:45 |
| telexicon | cashmoney, highlight text in the terminal, click the edit menu and select copy.. go to pastebin, select the input box, click the edit menu and select paste | 10:45 |
| chell | qwikk: I've also had this thing come up with other apps I think | 10:45 |
| brunner | wait, I'm getting people confused now | 10:45 |
| cashmoney | telexicon: can you provide me the a link to what it should look like? | 10:45 |
| bullgard4 | Wikipedia states: "Internet Protocol specifies a loopback network" I grepped RFC0791 but could not find any 'loopback' there. Where is a loopback network to be found in Internet Protocol? | 10:45 |
| eugenix | i tried running this distro backtrack,.. and it detects my homewireless, but won't login | 10:45 |
| chell | but it most frequently happens with mozilla (probably because that's what I use a lot) | 10:45 |
| brunner | I give up on helping in #ubuntu... I'm way too ADD or high or something to keep track of everything | 10:45 |
| brunner | later all | 10:46 |
| Svish | Does the Evolution mail program tell me when I get new email even when the program is not running? does it have something running in the background? If not, is there a plugin or something I can install to make it do that? | 10:46 |
| telexicon | brunner, :( | 10:46 |
| chell | so could this mean my screen is dying? I doubt it's my graphics card seeing as I can play 3D games etc fine and I never had this issue in Vista | 10:46 |
| telexicon | cashmoney, i can rewrite it for you if you pastebin it | 10:46 |
| brunner | telexicon: ? | 10:46 |
| askand | Is there any difference on a cdimage of hardy that I downloaded on releaseday and one I download today= | 10:46 |
| askand | ? | 10:46 |
| telexicon | brunner, you're leaving? :( | 10:46 |
| felix_ | hi Im using ubuntu 8.04 and i really cant get my ati x1650 card to work..i have tryed envy and other guieds but i always end up with a black screen..anyone that know a good guide or something? | 10:46 |
| brunner | I'll idle and just take random easy-to-answer stuff then | 10:47 |
| brunner | until I get sucked into a longer one | 10:47 |
| brunner | I really need to get some other work done, though | 10:47 |
| brunner | it's really great that Ubuntu has pulled in so many new people | 10:47 |
| bullgard4 | Svish: Diskussionsforum für Evolution #evolution on irc.gimp.org | 10:47 |
| telexicon | cashmoney, ok, replace your source.list with this: http://rafb.net/p/plmz5q53.html | 10:47 |
| Svish | bullgard4: ok, cool. will head there then :) | 10:47 |
| cashmoney | I fixed it.. just changed everything back to dapper instead of hardy | 10:47 |
| chell | Okay, it's a screen issue... When I record my screen using recordmydesktop I don't see the white stripe so it must be something my screen does, i.e. a hardware issue | 10:48 |
| telexicon | cashmoney, but that doesnt help you get hardy | 10:48 |
| eugenix | felix: can you boot in recovery mode? | 10:48 |
| telexicon | cashmoney, replace it with what i pastebin'd for you | 10:48 |
| chell | I really hope it's not my graphics card because it cost me a couple of hundred € :-( | 10:48 |
| eugenix | or from a live cd | 10:48 |
| telexicon | cashmoney, save a copy of the original | 10:48 |
| felix_ | eugenix well now i have a fresh copy of ubuntu | 10:48 |
| AprilHare | i am running ubuntu. became curious at what temp everything was running at. my geforce 8400 gs is reporting 71 degrees celsius. is this possible? it's still working. | 10:48 |
| blankthemuffin | I found an error when modprobing the nvidia module directly: "sh: /sbin/lrm-video: not found FATAL: Error running install command for nvidia | 10:49 |
| telexicon | brunner, its had around 1000 people for a year or so at least in this channel | 10:49 |
| eugenix | had similar probs with an nvidia,.. had to edit my xorg.conf file | 10:49 |
| eugenix | although was with a laptop | 10:49 |
| brunner | if you don't know what his sources.list current looks like, you could always give him one for hardy and have his dist-upgrade before he does anything else | 10:49 |
| brunner | heheh | 10:49 |
| askvictor | how can I change the virtual terminal of X to something other than 7? | 10:49 |
| brunner | telexicon: I know | 10:49 |
| felix_ | okey..well i really need a good working guide or something cuz i cant get it to work | 10:49 |
| telexicon | brunner, i just wrote one setup for hardy and told him to replace it heh | 10:50 |
| AprilHare | it doesn't seem right. it would be toast at 71 deg celsius, wouldn't it? | 10:50 |
| telexicon | brunner, hopefully he'll do it | 10:50 |
| eugenix | hmm,.. don't know of one | 10:50 |
| AprilHare | could the sensor be misreporting under linux? | 10:50 |
| === sourcode_ is now known as sourcode | ||
| eugenix | if you hit ctrl f1 after it boots,.. do you get to a terminal? | 10:50 |
| telexicon | AprilHare, possibly | 10:50 |
| askand | Is there any difference on a cdimage of hardy that I downloaded on releaseday and one I download today? | 10:50 |
| renard99 | AprilHare: Only one way to find out ... | 10:51 |
| brunner | I need to learn all the little shortcuts in ubuntu | 10:51 |
| AprilHare | renard99, yes? :) | 10:51 |
| felix_ | no | 10:51 |
| brunner | to bring up the terminal and all that | 10:51 |
| brunner | is there a list of them? | 10:51 |
| AprilHare | no, i'm not measuring. too much like work. | 10:51 |
| AprilHare | heh | 10:51 |
| blankthemuffin | Crap I think I fixed it, brunner fyi it looks like this was the problem: http://sigma-base.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&p=14 | 10:51 |
| eugenix | hmm | 10:51 |
| AprilHare | might shut it down for a while, remeasure when the system is cooled to ~ room temp | 10:52 |
| blankthemuffin | IT WORKSQ!#!!@% | 10:52 |
| fde | brunner: They are listed in System > Preferences > Keyboard Shortcuts | 10:52 |
| AprilHare | bbl | 10:52 |
| renard99 | AprilHare: I was suggesting you open your box and have a feel, or maybe look at the temp just after booting. | 10:52 |
| brunner | fde: neat, thanks | 10:52 |
| cashmoney | w0ot dude you're the bomb | 10:52 |
| aburrent | How does one upgrade from 6.06 LTS to 8.04 LTS... in the 'update-manager' don't get the upgrade option | 10:52 |
| cashmoney | getting updates now | 10:52 |
| brunner | blankthemuffin: excellent! glad it's working for you! | 10:53 |
| blankthemuffin | me too brunner, me too | 10:53 |
| eugenix | i would think there has to be some way for you to boot into recovery mode,.. get to a comman line and type: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 10:53 |
| telexicon | cashmoney, good its working? | 10:53 |
| felix_ | okey thanks | 10:53 |
| cashmoney | telexicon: yeah.. doing the apt-get upgrade now | 10:53 |
| Hansemann | i have a question. if i upgrade my pc from AMD 1.6 ghz processor to a Intel 2.4 processor, do i have to reinstall ubuntu? | 10:53 |
| fde | aburrent: sudo apt-get update and it should notify you... ensure system > administration > software sources is set to prompt for it though... | 10:53 |
| eugenix | i mean if you installed hardy,. then some generic graphic driver has to have worked | 10:53 |
| aburrent | fde: how do I make sure software sources is set to prompt for it though...how specifically? | 10:54 |
| eugenix | that will will reconfigure your xorg.conf for a generic display driver | 10:54 |
| fde | aburrent: In that app ... go to "Update" tab and look at "Release upgrade" | 10:54 |
| adred | when will be the next batch of updates? it's been a week now and i still haven't received any. apps and windows crash when they become idle for an hr or so.. | 10:54 |
| askvictor | Hansemann: probably not | 10:54 |
| telexicon | aburrent, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades#head-db224ea9add28760e373240f8239afb9b817f197 | 10:54 |
| eugenix | once you get back into hardy,.. don't update your display driver without the risk of losing it again | 10:54 |
| eugenix | can anybody help me with an atheros AR5007 wireless? | 10:55 |
| aburrent | telexicon: I followed that , but I don't get the upgrade button | 10:55 |
| askvictor | Hansemann: the main issue would be the X-windows driver; you might have to run 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg', but maybe you won't need to | 10:55 |
| telexicon | aburrent, and you have dapper-updates enabled? | 10:56 |
| vanush | hi.. im trying to use sgrep to extract contents from a html file - > sgrep '"<div class='lyricbox'" .. "</div"' file .. but it doesnt work.. any ideas? | 10:56 |
| Hansemann | one more question. the motherboard i use now has built in vga output, but the other motherboard im going to change to, doesnt have built in graphics, will the pc start without a graphics card? | 10:56 |
| aburrent | telexicon: what does that mean ,specifially? | 10:56 |
| askvictor | Hansemann: there might be other driver issues if the devices on the new motherboard don't have supported drivers; but you should be fine | 10:56 |
| telexicon | aburrent, go to system -> administration -> sourftware sources | 10:56 |
| aburrent | telexicon: I have ubuntu 6.06 updates | 10:56 |
| fde | aburrent: same place as what I told | 10:56 |
| aburrent | telexicon: I did that ...everything is checked... | 10:57 |
| fde | aburrent: The check boxes above the option I said... one is "whatever-updates" | 10:57 |
| aburrent | fde: everything is checked | 10:57 |

| telexicon | aburrent, click the updates tab, and make sure recommended updates is checked | 10:57 |
| telexicon | aburrent, its not on the main tab, on the updates tab | 10:57 |
| askvictor | Hansemann: depends on the BIOS; linux will boot without a graphics card, but the BIOS might not let you get to that point. I'm assuming this is for a headless server if your running without a graphics card? | 10:57 |
| fde | aburrent: yeah... bottom is set to prompt for "Long term support releases only"? | 10:57 |
| ferronica | how to add Xp in ubuntu grub | 10:57 |
| Hansemann | yes. | 10:58 |
| Starnestommy | ferronica: that depends on which partition it is on | 10:58 |
| aburrent | telexicon: on the internet updates tab all I have is : check for updates automatically ...and that is check | 10:58 |
| Hansemann | i use NX server to control the server because i dont like terminal so much | 10:58 |
| aburrent | ed | 10:58 |

| ferronica | Starnestommy: it is in my second HDD SATA | 10:58 |
| ferronica | Starnestommy: fde: i tried | 10:58 |
| fde | aburrent: please do what I told you. | 10:58 |
| KrimZon | hi, i'm having trouble installing firefox 2 in hardy | 10:58 |
| Starnestommy | ferronica: which partition is it on that HDD? | 10:59 |
| aburrent | fde: ok...let me see if I follow you... | 10:59 |
| eugenix | Stahlmensch? is that german for ironman? | 10:59 |
| telexicon | aburrent, could you pastebin the file /etc/apt/sources.list | 10:59 |
| aburrent | telexicon: ok | 10:59 |
| fde | telexicon: Please let him do what I told him, thanks. | 10:59 |
| ferronica | Starnestommy: total 4 partition in it, two of them formatted | 10:59 |
| Starnestommy | ferronica: which of those has windows on it? | 10:59 |
| askvictor | Hansemann: you might need a graphics card temporarily to configure the BIOS (and make sure linux boots), but you could just chuck it in and hope for the best :) | 10:59 |
| ferronica | Starnestommy: in one i installed Xp other i am using it as Data storage | 10:59 |
| aburrent | telexicon: where do I pastebin to? | 10:59 |
| eugenix | probing internet for magical atheros AR5007 fix | 10:59 |
| Hansemann | ok. thanks for the help | 11:00 |
| askvictor | Hansemann: if you're using dhcp for the network card the IP will probably change... | 11:00 |
| aburrent | fde: I think the problem might be my sources.list | 11:00 |

| ubottu | pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 11:00 |
| fde | ferronica: add this to your /boot/grub/menu.lst http://paste.ubuntu.com/9945/ | 11:00 |
| telexicon | renard99, thats a good idea | 11:00 |
| fde | aburrent: It's not... | 11:00 |
| vanush | how can i use grep with searching for ' characters??? | 11:00 |
| Starnestommy | vanush: grep \' | 11:01 |
| fde | aburrent: We can do it that way, but it wouldn't be as supportable... you're updating through 18months worth of updates... | 11:01 |
| aburrent | fde: here's my sources.list: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9946/ | 11:01 |
| aburrent | telexicon: http://paste.ubuntu.com/9946/ | 11:01 |

| tamis | any one have time to answer a simple question ? (New ubuntu user) | 11:03 |
| Boohbah_ | !ask | 11:03 |
| ubottu | 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. :-) | 11:03 |
| aburrent | fde: I have no release upgrade section..only an "internet updates" section | 11:03 |
| fde | tamis: Only if you have time to ask it... | 11:03 |
| tamis | hehe | 11:03 |
| Dryrd | getting a bit cheesed off now - i have tried installing nvidia drivers and all it does is reboots constantly - this is in Hardy | 11:03 |
| fde | aburrent: wow... I guess dapper is too old for that :/ | 11:04 |
| aburrent | fde: I have "insallation media" "intenet updates" and "authentication" | 11:04 |
| Gravedigger_ | what is your ask? | 11:04 |
| aburrent | telexicon: is there something in my sources.list that looks wrong for upgrading? | 11:04 |
| tamis | thnx, well i'm trying to install a API of a 3d program(Houdini) | 11:04 |
| fde | aburrent: yeah... that tool is MUCH nicer now. | 11:05 |
| tamis | i do this by typing source hdkinstall | 11:05 |
| tamis | but, i need to be root | 11:05 |
| aburrent | is there some way to upgrade 6.06 to 8.04? | 11:05 |
| Starnestommy | tamis: put "sudo" before that command | 11:05 |
| tamis | so i type sudo source hdkinstall | 11:05 |
| tamis | yeah | 11:05 |
| fde | !enter | tamis | 11:05 |
| ubottu | tamis: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 11:05 |
| zvacet | aburrent : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades?highlight=%28CategoryDocumentation%29 | 11:06 |
| askvictor | how can I force X to start on virtual terminal 4 rather than 7 (once I've gotten rid of getty on VTs 4-6)? | 11:07 |
| tamis | oke so the problem is is that sudo source hdkinstall dos not work it say's: command not found (srry for the one liners) | 11:07 |
| fde | aburrent: Due to what version you're using... you'll have to 'sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list' and change instances of 'dapper' to 'hardy' and "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" | 11:07 |
| aburrent | zvacet: what exactly specifically is "dapper-updates" ..I don't see any thing called dapper updates in my sources.list...it only says 6.06 updates | 11:07 |
| fde | tamis: sudo ./hdkinstall | 11:08 |
| aburrent | fde: ok...where can I get the right sources.list? | 11:08 |
| zvacet | aburrent : I think it means that you have all repos open and updated | 11:08 |
| fde | aburrent: I told you how to edit it. | 11:08 |
| fde | aburrent: change every case of "dapper" to "hardy"... that's it. | 11:09 |
| zvacet | aburrent : sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 11:09 |
| tamis | i try'd sudo ./hdkinstall dos not work either | 11:09 |
| aburrent | fde: you mean I just search and replace? | 11:09 |

| rothchild | i'm all happily upgraded to hardy but I have libgtk1.2 being held back when I update / upgrade what's that all about then? | 11:10 |
| aburrent | fde: risk of what? | 11:10 |
| tamis | i can only call this command hdkinstall after running houdini_setup wich i think sets enviorment variables maby this is the case ? | 11:10 |
| fde | aburrent: breakage... but your version is too old for a safer method... | 11:11 |
| aburrent | fde: I have an image backup of my system so I'm not too worried if it gets hosed | 11:11 |
| Gravedigger_ | tamis: you need to be inside the folder | 11:11 |
| zvacet | fde : I know procedure and that is why i ask | 11:11 |
| aburrent | fde: but it would be nice to get it right the first time | 11:11 |
| brunner | okay, cheese works great for my v4l source... what other programs allow me to switch modes? (on a tuner card, this would be tuner, s-video, etc.) | 11:11 |
| fde | aburrent: should be fine. | 11:11 |
| nano_ | how can i thank a post on ubuntuforums.com? | 11:11 |
| fde | zvacet: updates-manager -d is basically the same thing... but I'm not even sure if that was an option back then... | 11:11 |
| brunner | what I meant was, what programs can I use to try out my v4l source? | 11:12 |
| fde | zvacet: I tried to take him through the "correct" procedure, and was adamant about it... but apparently that infrastructure wasn't around back then. | 11:12 |

| N1N31NCHN41L5 | can anyone tell me what to do to fix where double clicking a file will open it? | 11:12 |
| fde | brunner: ekiga or amsn | 11:12 |
| brunner | thanks | 11:12 |
| zvacet | fde : updates-manager -d is standard procedure to upgrade from dapper to Hardy | 11:13 |
| fde | aburrent: I'm going to restart, new kernel... I'll be back in a bit though if you encounter any issues. | 11:14 |
| aburrent | fde: alright...so I changed all instances of dapper to hardy...now I 'sudo apt-get update' and then 'sudo apt-get upgrade' what about | 11:14 |
| aburrent | fde: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ? | 11:14 |
| fde | aburrent: you can try 'sudo apt-get update && sudo updates-manager -d' | 11:14 |
| renard99 | f | 11:14 |
| fde | aburrent: That is the Ubuntu mechanism for what I told you... I just didn't think it was around back then. | 11:15 |

| ipei | Anyone know why I can't use the X-Fi driver and the nVidia driver at the same time? | 11:18 |
| Dr_willis | ipei, i would guess that its due to creative really really dropping the ball on their linux x-fi drivers. | 11:19 |
| smmagic | homefree83, press alt f2 | 11:19 |
| fde | ipei: afaik, X-Fi cards aren't supported, Nvidia should be fine though... | 11:19 |

| frogscott | can anyone tell me how to install some pc software I have and am trying to use crossover and wine but cant seem to get to work? | 11:27 |
| smmagic | frogscott, is it on the appdb? | 11:28 |
| rsk | frogscott: sudo apt-get install wine | 11:28 |
| rsk | frogscott: and then wine setup.exe | 11:28 |
| frogscott | I have wine installed | 11:28 |
| fde | N1N31NCHN41L5: Uhh... /apps/nautilus/desktop check "computer_icon_visible" ... but you likely figured that out :) | 11:28 |
| Dr_willis | wine /path/to/installer.exe | 11:29 |
| Dr_willis | !wine | 11:29 |
| ubottu | WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility. | 11:29 |
| finalbeta | ccoffey: remove all non official repositories and software first. | 11:29 |
| rsk | frogscott: if you bought crossover you have paid support from them ask in their channel | 11:29 |
| smmagic | I just don't get why crossover is better | 11:29 |
| Dr_willis | Or read the Crossover Docs. :) | 11:29 |
| frogscott | it isnt better it is just esier | 11:29 |
| smmagic | easier? | 11:29 |
| frogscott | ok I will check it out | 11:29 |
| AfroRowan | Who on this channel is Dutch ??? | 11:29 |
| smmagic | How so? | 11:29 |
| rsk | smmagic: they have hacks that's not accepted in wine | 11:29 |
| AfroRowan | and dont use !nl | myname | 11:29 |
| frogscott | well it is kind of a gui | 11:30 |
| AfroRowan | it wont work, b/c im banned in there | 11:30 |
| ipei | fde: Dr_willis: Do you know if it exist any other drivers to nVidia cards than nVidias? They might work with the X-Fi driver... :P | 11:30 |
| Jazman_ | ok i must have a conflict i cant boot ub as when it statrs to boot with the logo it then goes to a dos like screen which is called busty box(bebian) built in shell core then next line (ini ramts) | 11:30 |
| smmagic | so, what percentage is crossover better? | 11:30 |
| fde | AfroRowan: This isn't a chat channel... try #ubuntu-offtopic ... there are around 300 people looking to chat :) | 11:30 |
| rsk | smmagic: on the big whole, wine is better | 11:30 |
| sCOTTo | fde: you told me to ask and i have and thres been no response... | 11:31 |
| smmagic | Well then crossover is %100 pointless | 11:31 |
| Dr_willis | ipei, i find it hard to belive the the video card and sound card drivers are conflicting... if you can 'prove' its the sound card drivers. report a bug to the creative web site for the xfi drivers.. Other then that.. No idwa what to do with it. | 11:31 |
| fde | ipei: there is 'nv' and 'nouveau' drivers... nv is there by default... nouveux.freedesktop.org for the other, but only supports 2d at this juncture. | 11:31 |
| AfroRowan | @fde: i need someone who can say to a admin of #ubuntu-nl to talk to me so i meaby could be unbanned... cuz now i cant ask anything there anymore... | 11:31 |

| Starnestommy | VSpike: add "syn on" to ~/.vimrc | 11:31 |
| Dr_willis | VSpike, thats a vimrc config file setting, you may want to isntall the vim-full packages also. the vim-tiny package may not included the feature | 11:31 |
| sCOTTo | fde: so if a dist breaks and wont boot properly - how do i fix it? it there not a way? | 11:32 |

| ipei | Dr_willis: Ok, why wouldn't it be the X-Fi drivers? Every time I install them the problem occur. Just the nVidia driver alone works great... | 11:32 |
| bennyf11 | www.koha.org | 11:32 |
| Starnestommy | AfroRowan: ask in #ubuntu-irc | 11:32 |

| AfroRowan | well thanx yall | 11:33 |
| ipei | Dr_willis: Just that the X-Fi driver works alone too >.< But, I report that... | 11:33 |
| Jazman_ | well any one no how to fix ubuntu boot problems | 11:33 |

| Dr_willis | ipei, report the problem to nvidia and creative then. :) and post a forum post on it i guess | 11:33 |
| babolat | Jazman: more infor on ur prob would help | 11:34 |
| Jazman_ | i did earlier | 11:34 |
| VSpike | Starnestommy, Dr_willis : yeah, if I try ":syntax on" it says it's not available in this version, which is normally the case with only vim-tiny installed which is the default... however, installing vim-full would pull in X11, GNOME, and ton of other stuff. | 11:34 |

| brunner | does a partition have to be formatted before it can be used to create a truecrypt volume? | 11:48 |
| fde | SliderMan: Look harder, they're there. | 11:48 |
| SliderMan | fde, ill upload a picture. | 11:48 |
| fde | SliderMan: Better yet... at the top, there is a search function, use that. | 11:48 |

| RabidWeezle | thanks | 11:49 |
| babolat | RabidWeezle: np | 11:49 |
| Dryrd | anyone here expert with getting nvida drivers working with Hardy | 11:49 |
| RabidWeezle | Dryrd, what's the board? | 11:49 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | fde: ok i did that but it didnt save the settings - is there something i need to do before exiting cinfig editor to save what i check??? | 11:49 |
| babolat | !anyone | Dryrd | 11:49 |
| ubottu | Dryrd: 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? | 11:49 |
| fde | SliderMan: Show me with "Noti" typed, and "Window" in seperate screenshots please. | 11:50 |
| Dr_willis | Dryrd, state the card, state what you have tried so far. state whats not working right | 11:50 |
| fde | N1N31NCHN41L5: I'm not even sure where to save session changes in newer Gnome versions actually. | 11:50 |
| SliderMan | fde, ok, thanks alot for helping. | 11:50 |
| RabidWeezle | Dryrd, I know my geforce fx 5700 ultra was easy to setup, but that's not to say a newer card is... | 11:51 |
| Adys | Hey, i misclicked and almost uninstalled Grub in synaptic... how comes it didnt prompt me for any dependency? in the properties it says its still dependent of packages i have (memtest, etc) | 11:51 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | fde: i went exactly where u said gconf-editor and checked the boxes closed out and ctrl alt bkspc to restart x and my settings were gone | 11:52 |
| Dryrd | ok its a msi 7600gs and when i look at hardware drivers it shows that the driver is installed and in use but not enable - when i enable it and reboot it either just reboots all the time or black screens | 11:52 |
| babolat | Adys: didnt quite get that :-/ | 11:52 |
| fde | Adys: Synaptic doesn't manage those sorts of things... you'd have to use aptitude. | 11:52 |
| Adys | fde, it does | 11:52 |
| gianni | slt | 11:52 |
| fde | N1N31NCHN41L5: you have to log out correctly... ctrl+alt+backspace kills session without saving changes. | 11:52 |
| Adys | at lleast it does prompt for dependencies on other apps <shrugs> | 11:52 |
| gianni | hello | 11:53 |
| RabidWeezle | Ahh, Dryrd I had kinda the same thing happen, I unchecked the driver, then rechecked it, it redownloaded, then I rebooted, and it worked | 11:53 |
| XDS2007 | how do i setup a remote session on ubuntu ? | 11:53 |
| fde | Adys: It prompts to add, but knows nothing about deps no longer used. | 11:53 |
| aaad | I recently installed Hardy and tried to connect to my wepprotected internet with Dlink DWL-G650+. I press the networkicon in the panel and puts in my password. It spins for a couple of seconds, then the whole applet disapperas and the capslocklamp on my laptop start to blink (think it measns kernel panic)..... | 11:53 |
| XDS2007 | i have slack other person has latest ubuntu | 11:53 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | fde: ohhh - so unlike in puppy the changes arent automaitc - i have to make them glose editor and then log out an back in? | 11:53 |
| fde | XDS2007: Via SSH or VPN? | 11:53 |
| babolat | !router | aaad | 11:54 |

| XDS2007 | no vnc or something similiar | 11:54 |
| fde | N1N31NCHN41L5: yes. | 11:54 |
| Adys | ffdeit's not "no longer used", I still have memtest installed, it should warn me about depending on grub | 11:54 |
| Adys | fde * | 11:54 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | THANX | 11:54 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | gonna try now | 11:54 |
| aaad | babolat: ? | 11:54 |
| x1250 | aaad: if you had a kernel panic, you would know about it | 11:54 |
| Dryrd | i have tried enabling and then re enabling and same thing | 11:54 |
| fde | N1N31NCHN41L5: If puppy linux uses Gnome, it'll require the same thing to change settings. | 11:54 |
| fde | s/change/save/ | 11:54 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | no - it CAN but im on xorg | 11:54 |

| Dr_willis | XDS2007, i tend to install the 'vnc4server' package. | 11:55 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | sudo aptitude install vnc | 11:55 |
| RabidWeezle | Dryrd, does it say Nvidia-New (latest cards) Dryrd ? | 11:55 |
| x1250 | aaad: then you had it :( | 11:55 |

| randomcake | Hi, when I try to hibernate my system it says the swap is too small, how big does it need it? :| The size of my RAM? | 11:58 |
| === randomcake is now known as RandomCake | ||
| j0be | randomcake: max 2 times the size of RAM and recommended the size of RAM | 11:58 |
| fde | XDS2007: Sure... System > Administration > Remote Desktop to set it up... Applications > Internet > Vinegre is to view the Slack box | 11:58 |
| RandomCake | so max of 8GB? :| | 11:58 |
| RandomCake | I don't really need any swap, just want to hibernate really.... | 11:59 |
| j0be | RandomCake: naturally for hybernation it needs to dump the RAM to disk. | 11:59 |
| MarcoPau | hello, just upgraded to hardy and don't have xmms any more. installed xmms2 and a few plugins, but it seems to be only text mode... what am I supposed to do in order to have the good old xmms? :) | 11:59 |
| RandomCake | so for 4GB of RAM 4GB of Swap | 11:59 |
| j0be | RandomCake: above twice the RAM it does not serve the purpose anymore as efficiency goes down. | 11:59 |
| Dr_willis | MarcoPau, get it from source. xmms2 has some front ends in the package manager | 11:59 |
| i4x | anyone who knows how to fix this problem? dpkg-deb: control directory has bad permissions 777 (must be >=0755 and <=0775) | 11:59 |
| Morninwood | how can i register me with the server? | 11:59 |
| Dr_willis | MarcoPau, thers alternative players also. audacious is close to xmms | 11:59 |
| XDS2007 | fde small problem im on slax | 11:59 |
| XDS2007 | eek | 12:00 |
| RandomCake | how do I change the size of the swap partition j0be? To be hoest I don't think I need any swap at all, even with Vista Ultimate it works fine with its page file turned off... | 12:00 |
| fde | XDS2007: Not a problem, just reverse what I just said... | 12:00 |
| fde | XDS2007: vino is server, vinegre is client | 12:00 |
| j0be | RandomCake: these are all ballpark figures naturally. You can do whatever you want. If you want to change things, you need tools that do disk magic (like you have for windows) | 12:00 |
| MarcoPau | Dr_willis: so I can't really install xmms as it used to be? | 12:00 |
| XDS2007 | fde "vino" in new term window ? | 12:01 |
| Dr_willis | MarcoPau, its been removed from the repos in ubuntu and debian. So not really. its best to start using somthing more updated i guess. | 12:01 |
| Dr_willis | MarcoPau, OR use the source and compile it yourself | 12:01 |
| i4x | for everyone: how to fix this problem? dpkg-deb: control directory has bad permissions 777 (must be >=0755 and <=0775) | 12:01 |
| j0be | RandomCake: don't know if there is a disk size change util avail in ubuntu but must me. I suggest you search for partition magic. | 12:02 |
| brunner | I'm about to order DSL from AT&T... can anyone give me some tips regarding what hardware I should ask for? | 12:02 |
| void^ | RandomCake: for desktop usage even if you don't really need any swap i'd still use like 128mb, perhaps in a swap file. behaves better in oom conditions and you can swap out useless stuff like restricted modules. | 12:02 |
| MarcoPau | Dr_willis: what do people usually do? switch to other players? I felt xmms pretty much like a "must" for ubuntu | 12:02 |
| MarcoPau | well, linux | 12:02 |
| mdeee | anyone know what was changed in hardy regarding mouse configs? | 12:02 |
| Dr_willis | MarcoPau, xmms had 'issues' and was showing its age. I havent isedit in ages.. Audacious does all i need. Or i use bmpx | 12:02 |
| XDS2007 | fde whats the easiest way to do this in terminal | 12:02 |
| XDS2007 | this kids a bit of a "i want it now" | 12:03 |

| j0be | RandomCake: yeah. if you have a 30 GB disk indeed. but I bet you have at least 10x as big! | 12:04 |

| fursund | In the earlyversions of | 12:05 |
| RandomCake | lol, and with Vista taking up 4GB to hibernate it's going to be taking up 10% of the HDD just in swap/page data! :P :( I guess I do have a 320GB external HDD though :) | 12:06 |

| Dr_willis | smmagic, thats a very very scary statement you just said.... | 12:08 |

| fde | i4x: tldp hasn't been well maintained since the late 90's... hah | 12:15 |
| j0be | babolat: you asked the port number of vnc. the screen 0 (main screen) is tcp/5900, if you have extra vncservers running on other screens you need to add numbers. | 12:15 |
| sCOTTo | and - if i backup my /home/ dir will that keep ALL of my settings etc? because i am thinking a complete reinstall is in order - i upgraded to the newest and it has caused some probs... | 12:15 |
| hic | a bit annoying - command at not working | 12:15 |
| bazhang | hic what are you trying to do | 12:15 |
| fde | i4x: You should use docs from the distro, not random tldp stuff | 12:15 |
| j0be | babolat: XDS2007: sorry, the answer was for XDS2007 :) | 12:15 |
| babolat | j0be: no, i didnt ask for the port number of vnc. the screen 0 (main screen) is tcp/5900, if you have extra vncservers running on other screens you need to add numbers | 12:15 |

| gutsy_gorilla | fking monopolist laptop manufacturers!!! I bought a compaq laptop last week and I want to intall Ubuntu on it. Problem is that I need to reformat the whole harddisk and so I need to re-install windows. Why? This is Korea and IE is the only browser they know.So I wanted to create this "recovery CDs" and they did not give me a proper windows OS CD. Now the recovery CD app says that I've ALREADY created these CDs and won't allow me to create anymor | 12:24 |
| gutsy_gorilla | e. This fking laptop business is worse than M$'s Wanker Grand Arse (WGA). | 12:24 |
| charlie | how much hard drive space should i have to install hardy? | 12:24 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | im in ubuntu and did sudo chmod -R +rwx /dev/sda3 and it still says i dont have permissions - any idea what i need to do????? | 12:24 |
| hunger | babolat: I am using a custom one since I did not like the ones that come with linux. | 12:24 |
| fde | SliderMan: Be sure to tell what caused it... then include those screenshots etc... and file it on gnome-applets | 12:24 |
| Dr_willis | N1N31NCHN41L5, one normally does not chmod on /dev/ entries. | 12:24 |
| unop | N1N31NCHN41L5, heh, you need to change the permissions on the mount point not the device | 12:25 |
| fde | SliderMan: Also say what I told you to fix it... | 12:25 |
| Dr_willis | N1N31NCHN41L5, your command Might of messed up a lot of other things... :) | 12:25 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | NEWB - so what should i do an where | 12:25 |
| babolat | hunger: **sudo xmodmap /usr/share/xmodmap/xmodmap.uk** but enter the one u need instead of "xmodmap.uk" | 12:25 |
| hunger | babolat: Basically it is de/dvorak, but I swapped a couple of keys around since I could not remember where those ought to be. | 12:25 |
| gutsy_gorilla | Anyway does anyone have experience installing Ubuntu on a Compaq V2000 - AMD Turion 64 ML-32 with a bloody broadcom wifi chip? I want to know of the risks involved before installing Ubuntu and a fking lousy laptop. | 12:25 |
| SliderMan | fde, those apt-get commands? | 12:25 |
| herbaliser | i have installed Xmblackberry when i start the application i'm getting XmBlackBerry.c:OptionPopupCallback(998) - GPRS modem device Not available | 12:25 |
| herbaliser | anybody had this issue before? | 12:25 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | Dr_willis: like what and how? | 12:25 |
| fde | SliderMan: That is only a workaround, so you should file a bug report ensuring there is a proper fix... yes, those commands. | 12:25 |

| hic | Dr_willis, ok thanks, it works | 12:26 |
| SliderMan | fde, ok ill do it right away | 12:26 |
| Dr_willis | N1N31NCHN41L5, i have no idea what your orginal propblem is.. but changng modes on things in /dev/ is not a good idea. | 12:26 |
| herbaliser | is an ubuntu repo where i can install XmBlackberry from? | 12:26 |
| bazhang | hello nickthorley ;] | 12:26 |
| babolat | !xubuntu | gutsy_gorilla | 12:26 |
| ubottu | gutsy_gorilla: 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 | 12:26 |
| gutsy_gorilla | bazhang, and others sorry for the outburst. Just got really frustrated with this whole laptop buying business | 12:26 |
| herbaliser | i have installed Xmblackberry when i start the application i'm getting XmBlackBerry.c:OptionPopupCallback(998) - GPRS modem device Not available | 12:26 |

| gutsy_gorilla | babolat, I am using XUbuntu on my Toshiba laptop (256MB RAM) | 12:27 |

| SliderMan | what could fix that? | 12:27 |
| i4x | fde, gosh.. i'm feeling as I spent the time learning how to spend time, thinking I was learning an easiest way to build packages!! thx again the help! :D | 12:27 |
| unop | hunger, you could try and reconfigure xorg but i am not sure about dvorak being an option | 12:27 |
| fde | SliderMan: sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg | 12:27 |
| hic | Dr_willis, not a problem, but i cant understand why i cant use at for something primitive such display "hello world!" in terminal? | 12:28 |
| unop | N1N31NCHN41L5, where is /dev/sda3 mounted? | 12:28 |
| SliderMan | fde, thanks alot, again. :P | 12:28 |
| gutsy_gorilla | bazhang, I want to know of others' experience with Ubuntu on this particular model of the laptop (V2000). I have Ubuntu (XUbuntu) on my Toshiba laptop and Debian on my desktop (as a server). Somehow this Compaq one is troubling me. | 12:28 |
| hunger | unop: I am doing that. I only wonder how to change the console font. | 12:28 |
| GreamBell | i need a shell account for psybnc | 12:28 |
| GreamBell | i need a shell account for psybnc | 12:28 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | not in root - in / | 12:28 |
| rsk | GreamBell: go away | 12:28 |
| hunger | unop: s/font/layout/. | 12:28 |
| Starnestommy | GreamBell: search for one on google | 12:28 |
| fde | i4x: heh... debian developers are great, they're lazy, so they provide things to enable that, and the rest of us benefit :) | 12:28 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | in /dev/sda3 | 12:28 |
| Dr_willis | hic, the at command (and cron) has NO, NONE, NADA, access to the 'current terminal' at all.. You can set up an at job then log out.. THEn where would it print to? | 12:28 |
| fde | i4x: debianutils is full of other such scripts and tools :) | 12:28 |
| bazhang | gutsy_gorilla: best to try the livecd; you can also scan the forums for that laptop | 12:28 |
| hunger | Ah, etc/default/console-setup has those settings:-= | 12:29 |
| SliderMan | GreamBell: theres alot of free shell providers. | 12:29 |
| hic | Dr_willis, ok, clear | 12:29 |
| SliderMan | GreamBell: www.google.com | 12:29 |
| Dr_willis | hic, that URL gave examples of ways to make it do so for specific cases.. but dont rely on it. :) thats why at/cron often sends the output via email, or other logs. | 12:29 |
| herbaliser | i have installed Xmblackberry when i start the application i'm getting XmBlackBerry.c:OptionPopupCallback(998) - GPRS modem device Not available | 12:29 |
| gutsy_gorilla | bazhang, and what about the broadcom chip problem? I could not find out the chip before I actually bought the product from Compaq. | 12:29 |
| babolat | bazhang: how updated do u think is the hardware database that's in the repos? | 12:29 |
| unop | N1N31NCHN41L5, /dev/sda3 is the device representing the partition .. but where is it mounted? examine the output of the mount command. | 12:29 |
| SliderMan | fde, i get this "gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg is already the newest version." | 12:29 |
| nickthorley | bazhang: opted for ndis driver in the end - was easy enough and wireless seems quick and wireless light working so dont see any point trying to get other module working | 12:30 |
| bazhang | gutsy_gorilla: some folks get it working with fwcutter others with ndiswrapper | 12:30 |
| GreamBell | i need a shell account for psybnc | 12:30 |
| GreamBell | ? | 12:30 |
| bazhang | babolat: it may be a bit out of date but nothing serious | 12:30 |
| SliderMan | GreamBell: i already answered your question. | 12:30 |
| Starnestommy | !ot | GreamBell | 12:30 |
| ubottu | GreamBell: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 12:30 |
| hunger | nickthorley: ndiswrapper taints your kernel. | 12:30 |
| fde | SliderMan: Then it's not a codecs issue... you can hear sound normally? | 12:30 |
| gutsy_gorilla | bazhang, I was reading about it on the Ubuntu forums. Anyway, will give it a try. | 12:30 |
| gutsy_gorilla | thanks bazhang | 12:30 |
| fursund | In the alpha-beta versions of hardy, there was this nifty little mount archive utility, which unfortunately has disappeared, anyone know if it is possible to find it again? If so then where? | 12:30 |
| MarcoPau | Dr_willis: is audacious for gnome? I got kde | 12:30 |
| SliderMan | fde, yeah im playing a song right now . | 12:30 |
| babolat | bazhang: then gutsy_gorilla might benefit from checking the hardware database | 12:31 |
| J0K0 | hello | 12:31 |
| Dr_willis | MarcoPau, you can mixx and match gnome and kde apps however you lie. | 12:31 |
| Stroganoff | MarcoPau audacious is a GTK program. | 12:31 |
| hunger | nickthorley: So if you should ever want to write a bugreport to kernel.org it will get ignored. | 12:31 |
| SliderMan | fde, lmao all the bugs on my ubuntu.. really wierd :P | 12:31 |
| bazhang | babolat: he already has the laptop alas | 12:31 |
| fde | SliderMan: For fun, see if it likes other codecs better: 'sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-plugins-[bad,ugly]' (copy and paste) | 12:31 |
| gutsy_gorilla | babolat, I check the repository before buying my comps. However with laptops, EVERY single thing is closed. We do not know what we will get when we order the laptop. | 12:31 |
| babolat | bazhang: oh well | 12:31 |
| fde | SliderMan: If you have installed ubuntu-restricted-extras already, you'll have those though. | 12:32 |
| babolat | gutsy_gorilla: a little investigating on the Net would suffice | 12:32 |
| GreamBell | i need a shell account for psybnc | 12:32 |
| bazhang | gutsy_gorilla: you already bought it correct? | 12:32 |
| unop | SliderMan, fde, sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-plugins-{bad,ugly} :) | 12:32 |
| GreamBell | i need a shell account for psybnc | 12:32 |
| MarcoPau | Dr_willis: you know any sober player for kde= | 12:32 |
| MarcoPau | ? | 12:32 |
| SliderMan | fde, its trying to install those should i accept? | 12:32 |
| Starnestommy | GreamBell: your question has been answered several times already | 12:32 |
| fde | SliderMan: Could be maybe it's a badly supported codec... | 12:32 |
| fde | SliderMan: yes... | 12:32 |
| jenny_ok | all my extensions are phantom in both versions of firefox now | 12:33 |
| SliderMan | fde, ok. thanks again. | 12:33 |
| jenny_ok | and neither can install any more | 12:33 |
| gutsy_gorilla | babolat, I did that. There are "versions" of these laptops and all they mention is "802.11b/g" wireless. They do not tell what chip would be used. My other option would be to buy a PCMCIA card | 12:33 |
| gutsy_gorilla | bazhang, yes I already bought it. | 12:33 |
| === galatnm is now known as fle | ||
| xintron | From what I've understood, I need to install libipoddevice and ipod-sharp to get banshee to work with ipods? So, does anyone want to walk me through the process? | 12:33 |
| fde | SliderMan: I meant what unop said though... | 12:33 |
| SliderMan | lmao bad mirror downloading on 14kb/s | 12:33 |
| jazman | ok how do i install a package i download to ,y hardrive in tar format | 12:33 |
| fde | unop: Thanks, I'm tired... | 12:33 |
| bazhang | gutsy_gorilla: best to get that card working--pcmcia cards are often very difficult to get going and fwcutter has plenty of success stories | 12:33 |
| GreamBell | Starnestommy ok | 12:34 |
| SliderMan | fde, what? | 12:34 |
| unop | !compile | jazman | 12:34 |
| ubottu | jazman: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) | 12:34 |
| jazman | starney ubuntu booted with any thing | 12:34 |
| fde | SliderMan: sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-plugins-{bad,ugly} | 12:34 |
| gutsy_gorilla | bazhang, this is the first time I am buying a first hand laptop from the dealer. I bought the Toshiba in the used market. No hassles because there is not Windows tax :P. The dealer will provide a Windows CD for "free" (you know what I mean) | 12:34 |
| nickthorley | hunger: i appreciate that but it was either ndis or me not using ubuntu which would have been a shame so i thought it was a compromise worth having | 12:34 |
| J0K0 | sorry for my english, i search squid info, i will light it ! | 12:34 |
| babolat | GreamBell: www.red-pill.eu/freeunix.shtml | 12:34 |
| SliderMan | fde, its downloading. thanks. | 12:34 |
| gutsy_gorilla | bazhang, aha!! understood | 12:34 |
| GreamBell | babolat ok thank you | 12:34 |
| jazman | how do i compile i am new to linux to used of windows | 12:35 |
| fde | SliderMan: Yeah, needs { } rather than [ } though | 12:35 |
| charlie_ | does it matter what size i make my partitions? should they be multiples of 1024 or anything? | 12:35 |
| hunger | nickthorley: Well, who reports kernel bugs anyway? ;-) | 12:35 |
| SliderMan | fde, it worked with those [] .. | 12:35 |
| SliderMan | fde, should i retype it? | 12:35 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | ok /media. | 12:35 |
| babolat | charlie_: depends on what u use it for | 12:35 |
| ilsignorcarlo | Hi. I have a problem playng mp3s. In every player I'm trying to use, when I press play, they just don't start and sometimes the program crashes. | 12:35 |
| fde | charlie_: make / at least 5 gigs ... make swap at least 1 gig ... /home should be separate and whatever you think you'll need for your files. | 12:36 |
| nickthorley | hunger: well i would like to - i didnt want to use ndis but they failed to make it work automatically so i had to. | 12:36 |
| babolat | ilsignocarlo: u probably need codecs | 12:36 |
| fde | SliderMan: I have no idea what it'll be doing with [ ] ... | 12:36 |
| herbaliser | i have installed Xmblackberry when i start the application i'm getting XmBlackBerry.c:OptionPopupCallback(998) - GPRS modem device Not available | 12:36 |

| kakoonia | Hi.. does anybody know a program to convert from ogg or other sort of files to mp3? | 12:36 |
| === iluminatus is now known as ilu^afk | ||
| SliderMan | fde, lmao. | 12:36 |
| nickthorley | one question to everyone what would i need to do to switch off ndis temporarily to see if my wireless is fixed in updates? | 12:36 |
| charlie_ | my swap is currently only 196MB, is that bad? what is it used for? | 12:36 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | soooooo off - /media/Muppy008 | 12:37 |
| kakoonia | Found! | 12:37 |
| babolat | !swap | charlie | 12:37 |
| ubottu | charlie: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info | 12:37 |
| kakoonia | yey | 12:37 |
| xintron | My cardreader wont work, what do I need to install to get it to work? | 12:37 |
| unop | N1N31NCHN41L5, address the person you are speaking to so they know -- try this. sudo chown -Rv $USER:$USER /media/Muppy008 | 12:37 |
| Gibby69 | After updating to 8.04 (hardy) sign-in splash screen to large and nearly off the screen | 12:38 |
| unop | kakoonia, ffmpeg and mencoder | 12:38 |
| fde | SliderMan: Whoa, it tries to install a few too many packages then... you don't need dbg and doc packages though... | 12:38 |
| charlie_ | swap is like a page file? | 12:38 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | sorry unop | 12:38 |
| sap | .part | 12:38 |
| Starnestommy | charlie_: yes | 12:38 |
| unop | charlie_, right | 12:38 |
| SliderMan | fde, i canceled it with crtl +c and then apt-get autoremove | 12:38 |
| SliderMan | fde, now im trying the one with the {} | 12:38 |
| x1250 | xintron: intelligent questions imply useful answers. | 12:39 |
| charlie_ | how can i find info on setting up my tv tuner? | 12:39 |
| fde | unop: You have any idea what [foo,bar] does? why would it grab dbg and doc thigns via that regex? | 12:39 |
| kakoonia | unop : Thanks! | 12:39 |
| SliderMan | fde, still no sound .. :( | 12:39 |
| ilsignorcarlo | babolat: I have just tried reinstalling restricted-extras, but it says they are already installed and up to date | 12:40 |
| Dr_willis | MarcoPau, Sobor? | 12:40 |
| fde | !medibuntu | SliderMan | 12:40 |
| ubottu | SliderMan: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 12:40 |
| fde | SliderMan: That repo has 'w32codecs' try that. | 12:40 |
| babolat | ilsignorcarlo: so u have mp3 codecs installed? | 12:40 |
| SliderMan | fde, it means that i cant use them? | 12:40 |
| unop | fde, afaik [foo,bar] is an invalid glob/regex .. to glob you need {foo,bar} which expands that into "foo bar" .. in a regex, you'd do something like [a-f] which matches a b c d e or f | 12:40 |
| ilsignorcarlo | babolat: yes, I have. Also, just some days ago I could play them | 12:41 |
| fde | SliderMan: Look at what ubottu told you. | 12:41 |
| SliderMan | fde, ok thanks. | 12:41 |
| fde | unop: try sudo apt-get -s install gstreamer0.10-plugins-[ugly,bad] <-- note it's -s so will do nothing... it's very strange... | 12:42 |
| SliderMan | fde, but allso there is no download links Oo | 12:42 |
| SliderMan | (like duh) | 12:42 |
| fde | SliderMan: Click "repository howto" | 12:43 |
| unop | fde, errm, try these two commands and you'll see clearer perhaps. echo gstreamer0.10-plugins-[ugly,bad] and echo gstreamer0.10-plugins-{ugly,bad} | 12:43 |
| babolat | ilsignorcarlo: might help if u reinstalled them | 12:43 |
| Gibby69 | how can i alter resolution and position of the sign-in splash screen. 8.04 (hardy) | 12:43 |
| babolat | ilsignorcarlo: btw what player are u using? | 12:43 |
| unop | fde, only the latter does expansion, the former is a literal -- and apt-get is trying to install a package named "gstreamer0.10-plugins-[ugly,bad]" which does not exist obviously | 12:43 |
| fde | unop: I did that... I understand why it's wrong... I just don't understand what apt is doing to result in what it results in... please try what I said... it will be a simulated run. | 12:44 |
| ilsignorcarlo | babolat: I'm trying with amarok and quodlibet | 12:44 |
| MarcoPau | Dr_willis: sober... light, easy | 12:44 |
| phuzion | How can I see what hard drives are on my system, even if they are not mounted? | 12:44 |
| forumdot | how can i add a custom resolution in xorg (using 8.04) | 12:44 |
| MarcoPau | Dr_willis: essential :) | 12:44 |
| babolat | ilsignorcarlo: do u have xine installed? | 12:45 |
| hunger | phuzion: Check the directory /dev for [sh]d[a-z][0-9]. | 12:45 |
| SliderMan | unrar is supported here? | 12:45 |
| herbaliser | i have installed Xmblackberry when i start the application i'm getting XmBlackBerry.c:OptionPopupCallback(998) - GPRS modem device Not available | 12:45 |
| XDS2007 | frogscott: hi | 12:46 |
| unop | fde, eh, i see what you mean .. it selects quite a few packages - scary :) it must be a form of regex only apt understands, afaik, that does not represent any standard | 12:46 |
| fde | SliderMan: sure... | 12:46 |
| ilsignorcarlo | babolat: not sure | 12:46 |
| babolat | !rar | SliderMan | 12:46 |
| ubottu | SliderMan: rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free | 12:46 |
| hunger | phuzion: The hda is the first ide device, sda the first SCSI on (or newer IDE/usb/SATA). | 12:46 |
| hunger | phuzion: The numbers are the partitions on that device. | 12:46 |
| SliderMan | fde, i got it and im trying to open a file which is password protected. i got the password and its says that the password is wrong! | 12:46 |
| babolat | ilsignorcarlo: could u check with synaptic? libxine-extracodecs coz its been known to cause this prob | 12:46 |
| frogscott | hi | 12:46 |
| fde | unop: It seems to equate to {foo,bar}* | 12:47 |
| phuzion | hunger, and if a drive that should normally be on my system doesn't show up? | 12:47 |
| XDS2007 | frogscott: you may also message me in private in the channel #PrivateCO | 12:47 |
| XDS2007 | should you need further assistance with your issue | 12:47 |
| Dr_willis | SliderMan, the rar for linux may not support all the features. winrar.exe DID work under wine last i tried it. | 12:47 |
| reverseblade | Hello my wireless card stopped working and I cannot see it in lspci . This happened earlier as well and fixed by it self. IS this an hardware failure ? | 12:47 |
| fde | unop: Could be useful in the future if I want -dev or -dbg stuff, but weird. | 12:47 |
| unop | fde, errm, not really .. {foo,bar} is expanded by the shell before being passed on to apt | 12:47 |
| aspro | hey guys, I have a slightly broken mac osx install and I am trying to save files from it. The problem is that some of the folders don't allow viewing even to a 'sudo nautilus' session, is there a way to copy all the files in those directories given I can't get r/w to the partition? | 12:47 |
| hunger | phuzion: Then you need to find out whether it was moved around (shouldn't bother linux though) or has a defect. | 12:47 |
| SliderMan | Dr_willis wine (yuuuk) | 12:48 |
| phuzion | hunger, well, there's nothing listed as /dev/hd[a-z][0-9], so I'm concerned | 12:48 |
| phuzion | And my /dev/sda5 didn't automount last time I rebooted | 12:48 |
| Dr_willis | SliderMan, then do without I guess. | 12:48 |
| fde | unop: yes... but it's also returning foo-multiverse, foo-doc, and foo-dbg etc... | 12:48 |
| Dr_willis | SliderMan, 'password protected rar files' - ICK! | 12:48 |
| Dr_willis | :P | 12:48 |
| SliderMan | Dr_willis thanks for the help anyways | 12:49 |
| ilsignorcarlo | babolat: well, I haven't that package on synaptic, but other libxine packages are installed. libxine1, libxine-bin, libxine-console... | 12:49 |
| SliderMan | Dr_willis, wha? | 12:49 |
| Ton1 | hello there | 12:49 |
| Dr_willis | SliderMan, theres been many cases where people have rar archives with such new features. they have to use winrar.exe instead of the command line rar tools in linux. | 12:49 |
| Ton1 | i've got a problem, could anybody help me? | 12:49 |
| babolat | ilsignorcarlo: try deleting .xine from ur Home folder | 12:49 |
| babolat | !ask | Ton1 | 12:49 |
| ubottu | Ton1: 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. :-) | 12:49 |
| hunger | phuzion: Nothing under sd* either? | 12:49 |
| Ton1 | ^ | 12:49 |
| phuzion | hunger, no, my /dev/sda5 mounted properly after I forced it to | 12:50 |
| Dr_willis | SliderMan, every time i see an rar archive - it always seems tobe some split up multi part rar that turns into a .zip that then contains a .iso.... :) go figure. | 12:50 |
| Starnestommy | Ton1: what is your question? | 12:50 |
| hunger | phuzion: Modern devices turn up as sd*. | 12:50 |
| plantain | How can I mount a remote smb/cifs share read/write through GNOME? (Ideally _without_ using the commandline?) | 12:50 |
| unop | fde, right, i think i understand kinda how .. it's the same as this regex "gstreamer0.10-plugins-[ugly|bad].*" except that you can use a , instead of | to seperate tokens | 12:50 |
| phuzion | (Windows didn't properly unmount the volume last time) | 12:50 |
| SliderMan | Dr_willis, when you try to install unrar its works with the archive manager. | 12:50 |
| Ton1 | okay. my IDE-harddiskdrive isn't known by ubuntu | 12:50 |
| Dr_willis | SliderMan, and unrar may not have all the features that winrar.exe has. | 12:50 |
| phuzion | I have 3 physical hard drives, 2 PATA and 1 SATA. /dev/sda5 is my Linux partition and /dev/sda5. | 12:51 |
| babolat | Ton1: what filesys is it? | 12:51 |
| SliderMan | Dr_willis thanks. | 12:51 |
| phuzion | Ton1, perform this command in terminal: "ls /dev | grep hd" | 12:51 |
| Ton1 | bablat, does it matter? | 12:51 |
| Dr_willis | SliderMan, at least with wine and winrar, you can delete the .wine dir every 30 days to get rid of the 'register this' nag screen. :) | 12:51 |
| hunger | Ton1: Maybe it is visible as sd*? Newer IDE stuff tends to show up under what used to be SCSI. | 12:51 |
| Ton1 | i tried this: ls /dev/hd* | 12:51 |
| Ton1 | ls: Zugriff auf /dev/hd* nicht möglich: No such file or directory | 12:51 |
| Starnestommy | Ton1: what about ls /dev/sd*? | 12:52 |
| SliderMan | Dr_willis or just download a carck | 12:52 |
| Ton1 | not visible as sd | 12:52 |
| SliderMan | lmao. | 12:52 |
| phuzion | Ton1, wildcards don't work that way. Try the command I showed | 12:52 |
| Dr_willis | SliderMan, :) then ya will need a virus checker for your wine! | 12:52 |
| ilsignorcarlo | babolat: I removed .xine, but still they don't play | 12:52 |
| SliderMan | Dr_willis HAHA =) | 12:52 |
| Ton1 | phuzion, okay, 1 moment | 12:52 |
| phuzion | Wow, I'm actually retarded, Ton1. Nevermind. | 12:52 |
| babolat | ilsignorcarlo: amarok needs to be NOT open when u delete it | 12:53 |
| phuzion | I was not aware you could use wildcards in ls | 12:53 |
| phuzion | mind = blown | 12:53 |
| s0enke | hi guys, with hardy suspend on my inspiron 1721 started working. but after waking up 2 of the 4 usb ports are not working anymore. furthermore the system hangs at shutdown and hibernate doesn't work. any idea oder hints where to start searching? | 12:53 |
| danbhfive | Ton1: try pastebin this command: ls -al /dev/disk/by-uuid/ | 12:53 |
| SliderMan | ubuntu dosent support my chipset where can i get drivers for P4MAM-V ? | 12:53 |
| SliderMan | (MSI) | 12:53 |
| Ton1 | phuzion: ls /dev | grep hd | 12:53 |
| Ton1 | watchdog | 12:53 |
| Ton1 | watchdog?? ^^ | 12:54 |
| Saint`Dia | Ok, my videos have a blue screen over it, I can move the video around it, but it does'nt go away, PLEASE, how is this happening. | 12:54 |
| phuzion | Ton1, thats essentially the same thing as what you performed with "ls /dev/hd*" | 12:54 |
| phuzion | I'm just used to piping to grep | 12:54 |
| Ton1 | phuzion, but what shall i do? | 12:54 |
| hunger | Ton1: Try "ls /dev/[hs]d*". That gets both old-style IDE devices and new style hdd devices which all get listed as SCSI. | 12:54 |
| bobbo | which package do you install to get the Firefox Java plugin? | 12:54 |
| jimcooncat | how well does pastebinit work? | 12:55 |
| danbhfive | !paste > jimcooncat I think this pm should tell you | 12:55 |
| anoble | can someone help me w/ Screen Resolution Settings? I change the xorg.conf files so it can go about 800x600 and then it works, then i restart and it no longer works and goes back to 800x600 | 12:55 |
| stefg | Saint`Dia: disable desktop effects and try again | 12:56 |
| thecage | what gfx card are you using anoble? | 12:56 |
| Ton1 | hunger, well on "ls /dev/hd*" doesnt appear the hdd i want to see | 12:56 |
| jimcooncat | thanks danbhfive, I meant the command-line client | 12:57 |
| anoble | thecage: its a legacy one i think | 12:57 |
| legend2440 | Saint`Dia: which player? | 12:57 |
| thecage | nvidia? | 12:57 |
| danbhfive | jimcooncat: hehe, ok, thought it was a typo | 12:57 |
| docteur2005 | salut | 12:57 |
| anoble | thecage: yes | 12:57 |
| hunger | Ton1: That is why I asked you to list both hd* and sd*. | 12:57 |
| chazco | Hi... how can I format a 4GB SDHC card on Ubuntu? Needs to be in FAT for use in a PDA | 12:57 |
| SliderMan | ubuntu dosent support my chipset, where can i get drivers for MSI - P4MAM-V ? | 12:57 |
| basvg | hi all ... I just plugged in my old logitech webcam... what's the easiest way of making it work ? | 12:58 |
| danbhfive | Ton1: using the command I gave, it will list all your harddrives | 12:58 |
| stefg | chazco: mkfs -t vfat /dev/<yourdevice> | 12:58 |
| alza | hi | 12:58 |
| Ton1 | hunger, how i get access to, for example, /dev/sda ? | 12:58 |
| harris | helloOOOOO! What is the shorcut key to change different desktop? | 12:58 |
| phuzion | basvg, depends on your definition of "making it work". If you mean "drawing power from your computer" then, right now, it does work. | 12:58 |
| Saint`Dia | Is there not a solution without getting rid of the whole reason I use linux? | 12:59 |
| thecage | Sorry about the 101 questions, but, which Ubuntu are you using, and have you installed the proprietary drivers? | 12:59 |
| legend2440 | Saint`Dia: which player? | 12:59 |
| basvg | phuzion: *lol* I'd like to use it with e.g. amsn... in the docs I only find stuff about easycam2 | 12:59 |
| hunger | Ton1: sda is the complete disk. Better try to access the partitions on it (sda1, sda2, etc.). | 12:59 |
| chazco | stefg - Will that do a full format... its currently formatted by Ubuntu struggles to write to it | 12:59 |
| ilsignorcarlo | babolat: it was closed when I deleted it, but nothing | 12:59 |
| Saint`Dia | legend2440: All players. | 12:59 |
| harris | helloOOOOO! What is the shorcut key to change different desktop? | 12:59 |
| phuzion | harris, Control+Alt+[Left/Right] works for me. Not sure about users without Compiz though | 12:59 |
| anoble | thecage: the graphics card was "not in use" | 12:59 |
| phuzion | and harris, please don't repeat your question repeatedly. | 12:59 |
| anoble | thecage: im using HH | 12:59 |
| Starnestommy | harris: ctrl+alt+left, ctrl+alt+right, or ctrl+alt+down | 12:59 |
| harris | thnxx phuzion | 12:59 |
| Saint`Dia | Control+alt left and right for compiz, or control+alt mouse 1 | 12:59 |
| stefg | chazco: it needs to be unmountes, and you need to have superuser priv's. so put a sudo in front | 12:59 |
| legend2440 | Saint`Dia: have you tried using a different driver? | 13:00 |
| Ton1 | hunger, shall i list all "sd"s my Terminal has found? ^^ | 13:00 |
| phuzion | harris, no problem | 13:00 |
| poopuse1 | harris: 'windows' + e | 13:00 |
| chazco | stefg - Okay, will give it a try... not sure if its a Ubuntu issue, a card issue, the HC causing issues. Hoping a format fixes it :) | 13:00 |
| thecage | Hardy is a bit of a bitch to enable the prop drivers (I have found anyway). Did you see is as "Not Enabled" but still with a tick in the box? | 13:00 |
| hunger | Ton1: So there are sd*? GReat, you found your drive(s);-) | 13:00 |
| Saint`Dia | legend2440: I have Mplayer Xine IceApe and Gstreamer, It does'nt even play on anything but Xine, and it's all blue, and it happened suddenly. | 13:00 |
| SliderMan | thecage, were you talking to me? | 13:00 |
| Ton1 | yes, lol ^ | 13:00 |
| harris | wooow... that windows + e ROCKS | 13:00 |
| anoble | thecage: no its enabled just restrting now | 13:01 |
| poopuse1 | ^ | 13:01 |
| thecage | sliderman: no I was talking to anoble | 13:01 |
| Ton1 | hunger, now i have to find that hdd im search for | 13:01 |
| hunger | Ton1: You should have the partitions visible in /media... | 13:01 |
| Ton1 | ok | 13:01 |
| basvg | hmmm, looks like easycam2 is the way to go | 13:02 |
| hunger | If that is not the case you can do "fdisk -l" in the command line to list the partition tables. That gives some hints which drive is which. | 13:02 |
| legend2440 | Saint`Dia: open mplayer right click>preferences>video which driver is selected? | 13:02 |
| SliderMan | thacage, ok | 13:02 |
| hunger | Then you can mount the individual partitions manually ("mount /dev/sdXY /some/existing/dir"). | 13:02 |
| Ton1 | hunger, you mean "sudo fdisk -l" | 13:02 |
| thecage | it may still say not enabled after the restart - just brace yourself for disappointment - it has happened to me on a few occasions with hardy! :-( | 13:03 |
| hunger | Ton1: You might need to give the filesystem though ("-t fs" after the mount). | 13:03 |
| basvg | bweh, doesn't pick up my cam... oh well... tough luck | 13:03 |
| Saint`Dia | legend2440: I use KMplayer KAffiene Amarok and the basics that came with it. Which Mplayer | 13:03 |
| alza | hi iam upgrade from gutsy to hardy... but now i cannot make compiz | 13:03 |
| Saint`Dia | legend2440: Totem? | 13:03 |
| hunger | Ton1: Aehm... yeah. I don't hold with that sudo bullshit ubuntu insists on doing;-) | 13:03 |
| Ton1 | ^^ | 13:03 |
| Ton1 | hunger, there are already files on this hdd and i dont want to format this | 13:04 |
| legend2440 | Saint`Dia: try kmplayer | 13:04 |
| hunger | Ton1: Then do not enter any command that starts with "mkfs" ;-) | 13:04 |
| hunger | Ton1: Aehm... "sudo mkfs" | 13:04 |
| Ton1 | hunger, i notice this ^ | 13:04 |
| Saint`Dia | legend2440: That's what I'm seeing the blue screen on, that's what I've been explaining this whole time. | 13:05 |
| vanush | why is unix putting crazy quesiton marks at the end of my filenames?!!?!?1 | 13:05 |
| Starnestommy | vanush: because the filenames may contain non-ascii characters | 13:05 |
| Ton1 | hunger, okay. on fdisk -l there appears only my both SATA-hdds, but not my IDE-hdd | 13:05 |
| stefg | vanush: wrong | 13:05 |
| stefg | vanush: wrong locale | 13:06 |
| rajeev | hello | 13:06 |
| fde | vanush: an example filename | 13:06 |
| legend2440 | Saint`Dia: yea i know. i'm saying try different drivers such as gl xv xii etc to see if one of them works | 13:06 |
| fde | vanush: please (sorry, I hit enter too fast) | 13:06 |
| alza | zak | 13:06 |
| hunger | Ton1: Hmmm... then maybe the IDE controller was not recognized. | 13:07 |
| hunger | Ton1: I guess you are booting from SATA? | 13:07 |
| Saint`Dia | legend2440: WTF, It's fixed, I guess. It is'nt doing it anymore. Weird. | 13:07 |
| Ton1 | Hunger, BUT ... | 13:07 |
| Saint`Dia | BIG weight off my chest. | 13:07 |
| Saint`Dia | AFK till my next problem. | 13:07 |
| Ton1 | Hunger ,... my dvd-burner is a ide-device too and when i put in a cd it works | 13:08 |
| stefg | Ton1: try sudo modprobe ata_piix | 13:08 |
| rajeev | hello | 13:08 |
| hunger | Ton1: Oh, great:-( | 13:08 |
| rajeev | can u suggest me, can i install ubuntu 7.10 on intel original 845 GVAD2 board for graphical session | 13:09 |
| Ton1 | sudo modprobe ata_piix | 13:09 |
| Ton1 | <nothing happens, next Eingabeaufforderung> | 13:09 |
| Saint`Dia | Is there an "arggh" channel on this server? | 13:10 |
| Ton1 | (@hunger) | 13:10 |
| SliderMan | ubuntu dosent support my chipset, where can i get drivers for MSI - P4MAM-V ? / or for my ProSavageDDR? | 13:10 |
| hunger | Ton1: Well, if the DVD works (and is on the same controller) then the HDD should, too. | 13:10 |
| j0be | Saint`Dia: you can make one :) | 13:10 |

| exco | so how do I create it? | 13:11 |

| selecta_g | Hello :) I have a question about 32 bit Firefox running in 64 bit Ubuntu 8.04 if I may? | 13:12 |
| stefg | Saint`Dia: you are not asking your question in a smart way, that's because you get little help. Having details on hardware, ubuntu-version and configurations would surely help | 13:12 |
| hunger | Ton1: There is a sdc? I thought you only saw the two SATA disks. | 13:12 |

| Dr_willis | XDS2007, I think you need to be asking a better questiion then. | 13:17 |
| stefg | Carbonflux: that's a pita and usually involes thunderbird on win and linux | 13:17 |
| Ton1 | hunger, on fdisk -l there are only the two s-ata-devices still. | 13:17 |
| bazhang | XDS2007: we need tons more info as to what went wrong that is very non-descriptive | 13:17 |
| XDS2007 | me too ;) | 13:17 |
| exco | sorry, jrib, I can't find what ubottu has told me | 13:17 |
| fde | XDS2007: You should direct them at this channel if they're using Ubuntu. | 13:17 |
| Starnestommy | XDS2007: was the command prefixed with sudo? | 13:17 |
| Dr_willis | XDS2007, sudo apt-get install cowsay | 13:17 |
| Dr_willis | :) | 13:17 |
| jrib | exco: use paste.ubuntu.com to paste things, don't paste in the channel | 13:17 |
| frogscott | hi | 13:17 |
| XDS2007 | SS yes | 13:17 |
| fserve | gnomefreak, aptitude when searching you can know if u have the packaged installed or just downloaded | 13:17 |
| exco | ok. | 13:17 |
| hunger | Ton1: Hmmm. Are you sure your IDE HD is still in good working order? I only ever saw something like you got with a dead drive. | 13:18 |
| exco | so how do I create usb0 (or what causes creation?) | 13:18 |
| Carbonflux | stefg, so I import them into TB on windows and the move then to linux and export them from TB in linux ? | 13:18 |
| Dr_willis | XDS2007, one normally 'updates' with 'sudo apt-get update' and then 'sudo apt-get upgrade' befor installing new stuff also. | 13:18 |
| gnomefreak | fserve: yes i know but not really a big differnece in IMO | 13:18 |
| fserve | : ) | 13:18 |
| mario1978 | hello! i have a problem with my webcam and amsn! the picture is only black but in ekigo it is normaly : | 13:18 |
| fserve | but it makes me use aptitude. | 13:18 |
| stefg | Carbonflux: yes, basically.... the complex part is the address book | 13:18 |
| musa | i'm having trouble connecting to NET using HUAWEI E220 3G modem on ubuntu 8.04, it was working fine on feisty. | 13:18 |
| hunger | Ton1: That is assuming that the IDE controller is recognized and works, but with DVD on the same controller that seems likely:-) | 13:19 |
| Ton1 | hunger, ^^ i think some part of this ide-hdd is encrypted with "TrueCrypt" on my Windows-hdd | 13:19 |
| Carbonflux | stefg, thats the easy part in a way, I don't see any way to import TB email into evolution tho :( | 13:19 |
| RabidWeezle | musa did you try waxing the modem? | 13:19 |
| gnomefreak | fserve: i use apititude most of the time when dealing with non development versions | 13:19 |
| frogscott | what is channel name for crossover? | 13:19 |
| Starnestommy | frogscott: #crossover | 13:19 |
| musa | Rabid: waxing ?? | 13:19 |
| hunger | Ton1: That does not matter. The drive should be visible, even if you encrypted everything incl. the partition table. | 13:19 |
| stefg | Carbonflux: thy both use mbox, so you can pont evo directly to TB's files | 13:20 |
| Carbonflux | stefg, thanks for the information tho :) | 13:20 |
| gnomefreak | that would be the one | 13:20 |
| exco | Thing is... I have a Smartphone plugged in using usb, I'd like to ssh into that box... but today I have no usb0 all of a sudden... | 13:20 |
| Ton1 | hunger, i try 1 DVD | 13:20 |
| * gnomefreak goes back to work | 13:20 | |
| Carbonflux | stefg, ya I have does that for a few important things but for a massive inbox its kind of night mare ;) | 13:20 |
| Carbonflux | done that* | 13:20 |
| hunger | Ton1: Is that DVD on the same controller? | 13:20 |
| stefg | Carbonflux: as i promised: a pita | 13:20 |
| hunger | Ton1: Does the HD spin (does it make noise)? | 13:21 |
| Ton1 | same cable. i dont know whether its the same controller | 13:21 |
| bardyr | Hey, i have mounted a software raid on the hardy live cd (mdadm), is it possible to install hardy on it with the live cd? | 13:21 |
| XDS2007 | frogscott: #crossover | 13:21 |
| BTaylor | Hi. I wanna install Ubuntu on my macbook, but Boot Camp has a serious bug which causes a kernel panic when you try to partition your drive. Is it safe to partition my HFS partition with the included partition manager? | 13:21 |
| Carbonflux | ya, I have found the whole email situation on all platforms really bad stefg, I think the focus is on mobile devices or something | 13:21 |
| pac1 | Ton1 one cable, one controller. | 13:21 |
| selecta_g | Can anyone offer advice re: Firefox32 not working in 8.04 (it worked before i upgraded). Now, 32 bit Firefox says "Problem Loading Page". 64 bit Firefox works fine | 13:21 |
| mario1978 | hello! i have a problem with my webcam and amsn! the picture is only black but in ekigo it is normaly : | 13:21 |
| hunger | Ton1: Does the DVD still work if you put it in place of the HD? Are master/slave set up correctly on both DVD and HDD? | 13:21 |
| Ton1 | pac1, then 1 controller | 13:21 |
| stefg | bardyr: possible, but i'd rather use the alternate CD | 13:21 |
| bazhang | BTaylor: if you are single booting ubuntu yes; dual booting may be a risk though | 13:22 |
| unlink | how do you configure at what time of day anacron is run? | 13:22 |
| rdw | jrib: i am told sun-java6-jre is the latest version | 13:22 |
| Ton1 | hunger, i try to look for the hdd and it's noise, mom .... | 13:22 |
| BTaylor | Well Ubuntu has worked on this machine before, but that was when boot camp would let me partition. Is the partitioning app non-destructive? | 13:22 |
| jrib | rdw: isn't that what you wanted? | 13:22 |
| SliderMan | how do i clean the swap par`? | 13:22 |
| bardyr | stefg: yea me 2, but that is not possible atm | 13:22 |
| pac1 | Ton1, what are you trying to do? (I got here late.) | 13:23 |
| Saint`Dia | I'm wondering what the name of the app is, that you see all the ubuntu vs. windows vids with the icons that move around and all that? Anyone know what I'm talking about? | 13:23 |
| hunger | Ton1: My guess is a hw problem then. | 13:23 |
| rdw | when i run java --version i get Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build Blackdown-1.4.2-02) | 13:23 |
| hunger | Ton1: Does it work using another OS? | 13:23 |
| jrib | !multijava | rdw | 13:23 |
| ubottu | rdw: To set which java version/implementation is to be used as default, use sudo update-java-alternatives | 13:23 |
| exco | Saint`Dia: cairo dock and the likes? | 13:23 |
| Ton1 | pac1, i try to get access to my ide-hdd on ubuntu | 13:23 |
| Ton1 | hunger, on windows, it works | 13:23 |
| bazhang | BTaylor: you should look into refit; but that is an apple issue; while gparted *can* work, if you want to dual boot you are taking a risk with that method | 13:23 |
| Saint`Dia | exco: I want some desktop icon effects, to that degree. | 13:24 |
| stefg | bardyr: you have to mount the array to /target and and pit possible sub mounting points in place there. the you have to trick the installer into thinking he has done his partitioning | 13:24 |
| hunger | Ton1: Hmmm... I am running out of ideas then:-( | 13:24 |
| Ton1 | ^^ | 13:24 |
| rdw | sweet | 13:24 |
| rdw | thansk | 13:24 |
| BTaylor | bazhang: I actually have refit installed | 13:24 |
| exco | Saint`Dia: I know of Cairo Dock (use it myself) and Kiba Dock... | 13:24 |
| Ton1 | hunger, should i try to reinstall the controller? | 13:24 |
| Saint`Dia | exco: Is it impressive, I'm all about looks. | 13:25 |
| bardyr | stefg: hmm, okay. is there anyway i can install the alternative installer? | 13:25 |
| pac1 | ton1, are you using a ide card for this? | 13:25 |
| hunger | Ton1: Will probably not help with linux:-| | 13:25 |
| exco | Saint`Dia: that's a shame, isn't it? | 13:25 |
| Ton1 | pac1, this ide-controller is on my motherboard | 13:26 |
| stefg | bardyr: won't help much, because the Desktop CD doesn't have separate packages (as the alternat has) but just a filesystem image. | 13:26 |
| pac1 | Ton1, then you can't reinstall the controller. The controller is one of the chips on the motherboard. | 13:26 |
| Ton1 | pac1, and the dvd-burner on the same controller works well | 13:26 |
| XDS2007 | how does one update ubuntu repos via command line ? | 13:26 |
| Starnestommy | XDS2007: sudo apt-get update | 13:27 |
| Ton1 | pac1, okay ^ | 13:27 |
| pac1 | have you checked that the ide drive is set to "cable select" | 13:27 |
| BTaylor | Hmm, apparently the kernel panic issue is due to fragmentation...Is there an app that will let me defragment my HFS partition from within ubuntu? | 13:27 |
| Ton1 | hunger, but thank you for helping | 13:27 |
| bazhang | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook BTaylor | 13:27 |
| Ton1 | no, i think my hdd is jumpered as master | 13:27 |
| Ton1 | (@pac1) | 13:28 |
| hunger | Ton1: Sorry that we were not more successful. Check master/slave settings on the drive again, maybe that helps... | 13:28 |
| stefg | bardyr: if you have no way of using alternate or a minimal CD for a netinstall. it'sprobably easiest to install to a non-raid space, set the array later and move the system over then | 13:28 |
| bazhang | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=539692 and problems with that BTaylor | 13:28 |
| fde | Ton1: I can't find your actual question... but libata (thus /dev/sd*) is used for both ATA and IDE hard drives | 13:28 |

| gapagos | hey i have a 37:55min video I need to host online for my friends to watch, I wanted to upload it on GoogleVideo but it seems not to accept .m4v files (the video encoding in iMovie!!) can anyone help me? (I'm on Ubuntu right now) | 13:28 |
| XDS2007 | :) | 13:29 |
| XDS2007 | whats the deal ? | 13:29 |
| Ton1 | fde, how do i use libata? | 13:29 |
| fde | ChaosTheory_: It is not the browser, Adobe products simply are buggy on Linux, and there is nothing we can do other than bother them, and create our own alternatives. | 13:29 |

| freakabcd | it shows ???? ????? in ls -l ~/ | 13:30 |
| amikrop | Any help with this, please? | 13:30 |
| fde | Ton1: your IDE hard drive (if you have 2 SATA drives) should be /dev/sdc* | 13:30 |
| fserve | amikrop, you need add something | 13:30 |
| bazhang | extranoob_help_n: please state your issue with some more info thanks | 13:30 |
| XDS2007 | bazhang: synaptic update && synaptic install "appname" ? | 13:30 |
| Baby_Shambl3s | bardyr: yes i do for my win machines | 13:30 |
| Ton1 | fde, okayyy ^^ | 13:30 |

| freakabcd | also df gives an error about some stupid 'gvfs endpoint not ready' or some bullshit like that | 13:31 |
| stefg | bardyr: so make a temporary 3-5 GB partition and install the Desktop CD to that. once that's done prepare the array, copy everything over, adjust fstab and grub.. | 13:31 |
| Ton1 | pac1, are you still alive? | 13:31 |

| extranoob_help_n | efect are mixed in manner that some work fine some work bad | 13:32 |
| gapagos | fde can you tell me how to encode it with which command line, and which codec should I use to preserve as much quality as possible (while not inflating the video size too much since it's already 735 MB)) | 13:32 |
| Ton1 | fde, how i should jumper my ide-devices? | 13:32 |

| bardyr | Baby_Shambl3s: yea, linux people dont have the big need for antivrus so we dont focus so much on them | 13:33 |
| bazhang | extranoob_help_n: try disabling some of the effects first | 13:33 |
| jkp | how do i configure the server it uses to relay this mail? it seems to have the address of my old mail server stuck | 13:33 |
| Ton1 | fde? pac1? | 13:33 |
| extranoob_help_n | im already on minimal effects | 13:33 |
| jkp | i dont have an /etc/mail folder | 13:33 |
| extranoob_help_n | like basic with ubuntu 8.04 | 13:34 |
| pac1 | Ton1, I usually let the cable select sort things out. Generally, it doesn't matter which drive is master and which is slave. That's old terminolgy and no longer really says what's really going on. | 13:34 |
| gapagos | fde can you tell me how to encode it with which command line, and which codec should I use to preserve as much quality as possible (while not inflating the video size too much since it's already 735 MB)) | 13:34 |
| bazhang | extranoob_help_n: bad behave in system is not enough info | 13:34 |
| fde | gapagos: ffmpeg -i whatever.m4v --vcodec mp4 whatever.mp4 should work and be a format suitable for youtube | 13:34 |
| hunger | unlink: Check /etc/crontab. | 13:34 |
| SliderMan | well cya all. | 13:34 |

| fde | Ton1: however you want :/ | 13:34 |
| extranoob_help_n | ok like this i used envy drivers manager to install graphic card, in hardvare devices is enabled and in use | 13:35 |
| extranoob_help_n | catalist control for it not working | 13:35 |
| kelvin911 | hi guys good morning | 13:35 |
| Baby_Shambl3s | bardyr: yeah true but still i would like to have one for the other machines and partitions | 13:35 |
| pac1 | ton1, better terms are drive 0 and drive 1. It does not matter which is which you can boot from either one. But you do have to tell the controller which is which. They both can't be 0. They both can't be 1. | 13:35 |
| Myrtti | !envy | 13:35 |
| ubottu | envyng is an updated version of the *UNSUPPORTED* envy package. It is now part of the ubuntu universe repository and has community support. As an early version, its results may vary but this should be used over the unsupported envy package. | 13:35 |
| Baby_Shambl3s | can someoen suggest a good firewall for hardy (excl. Firestarter which i could never setup)? | 13:36 |
| stefg | !antivirus | Baby_Shambl3s | 13:36 |
| ubottu | Baby_Shambl3s: antivirus is something you don't really need on Linux, unless you serve windows clients. ClamAV and aegis are decent linux virusscanners. Also see !linuxvirus | 13:36 |
| pac1 | ton1, There's two ways to tell the controller. 1. Cable select, 2. set "master" on one and "slave" on the other using jumpers | 13:36 |
| bazhang | extranoob_help_n: try disabling effects completely first; see if there are other issues as you have eliminated that one | 13:36 |
| fde | gapagos: ffmpeg -i whatever.m4v -f mp4 --vcodec mp4 whatever.mp4 actually... sorry (note the -f mp4) | 13:36 |
| extranoob_help_n | hmm disable as untick all posible options or uninstal compiz? | 13:36 |
| Ton1 | pac1, fde: when i boot my PC,the bios appears and shows me, that it has detected the ide-hdd and the ide-dvd.burner | 13:36 |

| gapagos | fde thank you :-D i realised i only have the dvd image not the mp4 on my pc now :-O so i didnt try yet and im out to get the mp4 :) | 13:38 |

| apecat | also, when i plug in the drive and reboot, the drive works | 13:46 |

| fde | acp_: please /msg ubottu <whatever> rather than adding noise to the channel, thanks | 14:03 |
| cjzjm100 | Hi guys,i had install the mplayer from repo,and i had puted codecs file named all-20071007 into the /usr/lib/codecs,however i still can't see the rmvb files.i can hear the sounds,but can't see the video.why? | 14:03 |
| jrib | sCOTTo: 'man tar' has some examples too | 14:03 |
| gapagos | fde it says Unsupported codec (id=86018) for input stream #0.1 yet i can read the mp4 in Totem so I should have the codec in ffmpeg, no? | 14:03 |
| sCOTTo | thanks | 14:03 |
| fde | apecat: Sorry, then I have no idea... | 14:03 |
| x_zeuss | i did cd to that folder | 14:03 |
| IntangibleLiquid | as84, yeah, it works like a charm. I just tested it this afternoon in a wifi coffee shop | 14:03 |

| ubottu | x_zeuss: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 14:03 |
| x_zeuss | i tried to compile the aurora gtk engine | 14:03 |
| gapagos | i mean the m4v | 14:03 |
| xenomorph99 | I can't copy my existing system, either, as that is a full install and it won't fit onto the 2GB flash drive | 14:03 |
| pac1 | is there a makefile in it? | 14:03 |
| apecat | fde: well i've struggled with this before (mounting hotplugged ext3 formatted drives using usb) on both ubuntu and debian. i'll probably open a bug on launchpad at some point. thanks anyway | 14:03 |

| as84 | IntangibleLiquid: oh that's cool - so... speed wise, is it better than windows? | 14:04 |
| fde | gapagos: That just means that one of the gstreamer codecs CAN read it :( | 14:04 |
| acp_ | sorry,I will thanks for the info @fde | 14:04 |
| x_zeuss | jrib and the excelcior gtk engine | 14:04 |

| TJ13820 | Jrib: is their a way to downgrade all programs on my system to meet the older libc6 requirements | 14:04 |
| IntangibleLiquid | as84, it consumes less resources (ram, cpu). For power consumption I think both are relatively the same | 14:05 |

| gapagos | imho it's all APPLE'S FAULT for using such LAME codec formats | 14:05 |
| fde | gapagos: nope... follow what ubottu is about to tell you though, and get w32codecs and mencoder from the archive: | 14:05 |

| stefg | xenomorph99: i see. so the standard linux-image-server-generic should actually be the right kernel, but i'm not familiar enough witht the alternate-instllaller to be able to tell why it fails to recognize that | 14:06 |

| x_zeuss | jrib yes | 14:06 |
| Carbonflux | lol pac1 | 14:06 |

| jrib | x_zeuss: pastebin all the commands you ran in your shell after untarring and the output you got | 14:07 |
| hischild | pac1, my gf is totally not technical in any way, but she finds ubuntu a LOT easier to use. | 14:07 |

| IntangibleLiquid | hi guys, my linux box encountered several attempts blocked by firestarter from the same IP address trying to TElnet, and access port 8080 as well as 5100. I'm using port 5100 as my torrent port. Is it a sign of attack? | 14:08 |
| jrib | x_zeuss: pastebin please | 14:08 |
| vagamente | hi all... some problem with mouse scrolling... any help? | 14:08 |
| Carbonflux | Saint`Dia, Vista is fine, but it won't run on her laptop | 14:08 |
| xenomorph99 | I can see where you are coming from but I don't know enough about the installer process. I think you're saying that it's either checking that the kernel is compatible with the hardware or that it needs some 'extension' for it to work with this CF/IDE combination and can't. That'd make sense why I can install 8.04 to my HDD but not to the IDE/CF | 14:08 |
| alintata | sall all | 14:08 |
| hischild | IntangibleLiquid, if it's the port your torrent app runs on, then probably no. | 14:08 |

| fde | jrib: do that again... it will try to send to x_zeuss (read the private message from ubotu) | 14:09 |

| exco | hello? | 14:12 |
| TJ13820 | Jrib: i should just upgrade to hardy then | 14:12 |
| hischild | IntangibleLiquid, that's odd. I doubt it's a real sign of an attack though. | 14:12 |
| IntangibleLiquid | as84, can you join #asus instead? we can talk privately there | 14:12 |
| Carbonflux | pac1, is it a desktop computer with a bit of ram? you could try virtual box and just install XP inside that for word, and of course you get it working with wine if its a older version | 14:12 |

| n0kS | Nokia^ I've no idea .... | 14:24 |
| Loredana | nOkS romanian ? | 14:24 |
| Saint`Dia | Now tell me if this is against the rules, But I want to rip my dvd's onto this comp. What program would I do that with? | 14:24 |
| n0kS | bulgarian | 14:24 |
| exco | pikini: I'm sorry, but I don't get what you're trying to do | 14:24 |
| exco | do you want to install that new version on your local machine, or do you want to get it in the repos? | 14:24 |
| hischild | J-_, i have not. Can you explain? Perhaps i'm tempted to try it. | 14:24 |
| Nokia^ | Saint`Dia: try dvdrip | 14:24 |
| Loredana | NokS pls what channel are on romanian people | 14:24 |
| exco | Saint`Dia: it depends on which country you live in and if the dvd is protected | 14:24 |
| pikini | exco: I want the new version to get it on the repos | 14:24 |
| J-_ | hischild: I was going to ask if it works if there were any answers I was looking for =) | 14:25 |
| jrib | Loredana: #ubuntu-ro we've told you many times | 14:25 |
| Loredana | jrib but are not romanian on ubutu | 14:25 |
| exco | pikini: sorry, I don't know about that ... I guess it shouldn't be to hard to find in the ubuntu wiki though | 14:25 |
| hischild | Saint`Dia, this is not against the rules as long as you own the dvd yourself. I prefer k9copy to also convert it to avi so i can take it along on my media player :) | 14:25 |
| xintron | how do I acces the emerald settings-pannel? | 14:25 |
| Saint`Dia | Of course the dvd's are protected, but I like the movies, I don't like the whole scratching thing. I wanna rip them. Does dvdrip care about copyrights? | 14:25 |
| n0kS | Loredana I think: ubuntu-ro | 14:25 |
| jrib | Loredana: what? just do: /join #ubuntu-ro | 14:25 |
| pikini | exco: thank you so much for your kind attention | 14:25 |

| Loredana | ok | 14:27 |
| SaEeDIRHA | i want to make my ubuntu as light as possible | 14:27 |
| feaks | !sound | 14:27 |
| ubottu | 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 | 14:27 |
| SaEeDIRHA | also keepiong Gnome | 14:27 |
| gapagos | #$%?&*() I have plenty of people counting on me to upload this file | 14:27 |
| SaEeDIRHA | what do u recommand ? | 14:27 |
| rubikcube | hi, is there any expose-like app available in 8.04, if I don't want to install compiz? I couldn't find skippy any more | 14:27 |
| gapagos | WHY can't I convert it????????????????????????? :'( | 14:27 |
| hischild | SaEeDIRHA, it might be a bit heavy to have gnome on it. Perhaps fluxbox is more suitable? | 14:28 |
| Nokia^ | openuser: :P it's a fairly easy thing nrg2iso <nrgfile> <isofile> | 14:28 |
| hischild | gapagos, you won't get any help this way. | 14:28 |
| xintron | how do I edit the emerald and compiz settings? | 14:28 |
| SaEeDIRHA | hischild: but i would like to keep Gnome , i am thinking to get rid of packages i dont need | 14:28 |
| hic | what is the most efficient deinterlace method for mencoder tv capture? | 14:28 |
| n0kS | SaEeDIRHA GNOME is not light :) if you want fast perfomance, try KDE (kubuntu-desktop) or XFCE (xubuntu-desktop) | 14:29 |
| hic | lavcdeint is not bad | 14:29 |
| hischild | n0kS, kde is also just as heavy on resources as gnome. | 14:30 |
| freibooter | Hey, I have a hug problem with Hardy Heron. I'm experiencing abysmal hard drive performance on my PATA drive ... the SATA drives are fine however. | 14:30 |
| luo | hi | 14:30 |
| n0kS | hischild for me KDE is lighter that GNOME | 14:30 |
| freibooter | The reason seems to be: | 14:30 |
| SaEeDIRHA | what u suggest me to do then ? in order to keep Gnome or KDE | 14:30 |
| freibooter | AdvancedPM=yes: disabled (255) WriteCache=disabled | 14:31 |
| freibooter | according to hdparm | 14:31 |
| n0kS | hischild I've tried all bases xfce, kde and gnome on 600MHz and the fastest was xfce | 14:31 |
| SaEeDIRHA | n0kS: what is the maximum usgae of hard disk or your kde ? | 14:31 |
| hischild | SaEeDIRHA, both are heavy on resources | 14:31 |
| hischild | n0kS, ofcourse xfce is the fastest one | 14:31 |
| freibooter | Does anyone know how to enable the WriteCache in Hardy? | 14:31 |
| maimster | Morning all. | 14:31 |
| === tyczek_ is now known as Tyczek | ||
| freibooter | It's enabled for all the other driver, just not the one that Hardy is installed on | 14:32 |
| SaEeDIRHA | but i am not talking about speed, i am limited in storage space | 14:32 |
| === luo is now known as StoneLuo | ||

| === StoneLuo is now known as StoneLuo2000 | ||
| b0x | bad luck | 14:32 |
| n0kS | SaEeDIRHA I recommend you install xubuntu-desktop (like ~400MB) that is using XFCE, is something like GNOME | 14:32 |
| san_ | 哈哈 | 14:32 |
| ghostlines | does bittorrent encryption require my peers to also enable encryption, or does the tracker handle the encryption ? | 14:32 |

| gapagos | legend2440 yes but my file is in M4V not MP4 | 14:37 |
| vanberge | lapdog, definitely | 14:37 |
| Nokia^ | lapdog: yeah! | 14:38 |
| mysterycool | Dare: Ok, hang on a sec please. | 14:38 |
| vanberge | lapdog, a 1.2 GB one | 14:38 |
| vanberge | (probably) | 14:38 |
| vanberge | btw - does anyone know, did pidgin actually fork ?? | 14:38 |
| hmuller | lapdog: the common recommendation is 2.5 times the amount of ram | 14:38 |
| lapdog | vanberge, all right. Thanks. I was just worried about the HDD writes. | 14:38 |
| gapagos | adam7 what software did you use and i can't make ffmpeg work it always gives me an error i can show you the error if you want | 14:38 |
| rubikcube | gapagos: which error does ffmpeg give? | 14:38 |
| hmuller | lapdog: but if you have 2GB or more, it | 14:38 |
| vanberge | lapdog, if your a windows guy, think of swap as you pagefile size | 14:38 |
| gapagos | rubikcube it gives me Error while opening codec for output stream #0.1 - maybe incorrect parameters such as bit_rate, rate, width or height | 14:39 |
| rubikcube | gapagos: please paste the error to rafb.net/paste or similar | 14:39 |
| hmuller | is not normally necessary | 14:39 |
| adam7 | gapagos: google mencoder | 14:39 |
| vanberge | lapdog, normally swap is 2 -2.5 times the size of ram | 14:39 |
| roxahris_ | ... | 14:39 |
| mysterycool | Dare: Check in Synaptic, there are quite a few things for backup and system restoration =] | 14:39 |

| lapdog | vanberge, I am a hybrid (not a purebred :D) | 14:39 |
| adam7 | gapagos: I was using it to rip DVDs, but I'm sure you can use it to convert something to a google video format, never done it though | 14:39 |
| vanberge | lapdog, me too - because my wife insists on keeping at least one windows install around. :-) | 14:39 |
| gapagos | rubikcube it also gives me [aac @ 0xb7ec39a8]libfaac doesn't support this output format! | 14:39 |

| dare | mysterycool, ok i will look up in syn | 14:39 |

| ldiamond | Ubuntu starts loading normally, but hangs in the middle, saying "Attached scsi generic sg2 type 0" | 15:18 |
| adam7 | ldiamond: wubi lets you install from Windows -- if you use the alt. install, you didn't use Wubi | 15:18 |

| tony55 | ldiamond,yes wubi would be much better choice | 15:20 |
| ChaosTheory_ | adam7: How does Gnash work? | 15:20 |

| BoltClock | Mimi: firefox | 15:24 |
| amenado | Alex____-> do you have an existing linux? | 15:24 |
| SWN | adam7: I have wireless-tools installed, and I checked the installed package details, and it doesn't show there is a "iwtools". Are you thinking of maybe another command? | 15:25 |
| norbi | IntangibleLiquid, Everything worked out, had to manually edit the grub menu list because it still had the windows option during bootup. Now if I can somehow resize this partition, gparted is not letting me do that. I am assuming because the partition is in use. Can you recommend another way of resizing it? Thanks by the way :) | 15:25 |
| Alex____ | no | 15:25 |

| alex-weej | ldiamond: Ubuntu is the only one you want, and GNOME is the best. </bias> | 15:29 |
| zippsterbc | go into the settings and see what you have turned on or even reset to default, it worked for me | 15:29 |

| RabidWeezle | monitor | 15:29 |
| amenado | Alex____-> you install puppy linux and with grub, then i can show you how to boot a copied ubuntu iso from hd, | 15:29 |
| foxhop | zippsterbc is there a fix yet or just bug reports? | 15:29 |
| ldiamond | alex, why wouldnt I want xubuntu or kubuntu? | 15:29 |

| zippsterbc | just bug reports | 15:29 |

| tony55 | ldia if you prefer a more windows like then go kubuntu | 15:29 |

| amenado | SWN thats assuming the Makefile has an uninstall target | 15:31 |
| rambo3 | Saint`Dia, mkfs* | 15:31 |

| foxhop | zippsterbc: is it possible to export config of compiz Setting manager? | 15:31 |
| alex-weej | RabidWeezle: ok. maybe they took it out because xorg does all autoconfigured stuff these days. | 15:31 |
| SWN | rsk: Thanks, makes sense. :) | 15:31 |
| tony55 | ldiamond, kubuntu prob has more stuff on it cuz kde adds more things | 15:31 |
| alex-weej | RabidWeezle: what exactly are you wanting to configure? | 15:31 |
| n0kS | ldiamond kubuntu is using a KDE base and ubuntu is using GNOME, so is different and yes there are some new packages.... | 15:31 |
| SWN | amenado: OK, what if it doesn't, and how do I check? | 15:31 |
| zippsterbc | I think there is... where you set it to default, you do the same export there if you want | 15:31 |
| zippsterbc | I didn't and it worked like a charm | 15:32 |
| n0kS | ldiamond the look is different, themes and some other things | 15:32 |
| amenado | Saint`Dia-> you use fdisk to format to a particular type then use mkfs to put a filesystem on it | 15:32 |
| RabidWeezle | the sync's resolutions all that, like feisty used to do | 15:32 |

| amenado | SWN then you have to look at the install target, and reverse the processes it did for installation | 15:32 |

| xgwpc | I don't understand your response "that is so add to ask you for a password" | 15:35 |
| ldiamond | yea I know lol | 15:35 |
| * roxahris kicks clone | 15:35 | |
| tony55 | ldiamond, try useing the livecd of each and decide from that | 15:35 |
| amenado | xgwpc-> odd ..typo | 15:35 |

| N1N31NCHN41L5 | ANYONE know where the open in this window option is in ubuntu | 15:35 |

| Jezz | hi | 15:38 |
| Jezz | can you write to a NTSF partition with linux? | 15:38 |
| ldiamond | ahh well, wubi found my ubuntu .iso, I guess thats the fastest way then | 15:38 |
| Jezz | out of the box? | 15:38 |
| xgwpc | amenado -> I still don't understand your response. "that is so add to ask you for a password" | 15:38 |
| lucio12345 | yes you can write | 15:38 |
| Paulie_ | can xchat allways display the people in th channel ? like mirc ? | 15:38 |
| Hacker007 | Hi all, i am linux newbie and i hve a problem, is there any one to help? | 15:38 |
| ldiamond | jezz, u cant read | 15:38 |
| VSpike | Jezz: Yes | 15:38 |
| ldiamond | i mean | 15:38 |
| amenado | VSpike-> which apps? your own code? | 15:38 |
| alex-weej | Paulie_: bottom left. again. :P | 15:38 |
| ldiamond | write | 15:38 |
| Jezz | cant read? | 15:38 |
| ldiamond | U can only ready | 15:38 |
| ldiamond | read* | 15:38 |
| Jezz | not write? | 15:38 |
| amenado | xgwpc-> that is so odd* to ask you for a password | 15:38 |
| ldiamond | unless theres a new feature in 8.0 | 15:38 |
| n0kS | Paulie_ yes... just go View --> User List | 15:39 |
| fiyawerx | ldiamond, yes you can with ntfs-3g | 15:39 |
| Keitai | but isn't the 3g driver in the new cernel? | 15:39 |
| VSpike | amenado: what you mean what client? just testing with nslookup | 15:39 |
| Keitai | *kernel | 15:39 |
| ldiamond | yes, but thats a package, not straight out of the box | 15:39 |
| fiyawerx | Jezz, you can both read/write with default ubuntu now, yes | 15:39 |
| amenado | xgwpc-> livecd dont ask for a password | 15:39 |
| Jezz | ok :) | 15:39 |
| VSpike | amenado: if I test on the server, it works. If I try another box, it times out | 15:39 |
| fiyawerx | ldiamond, its built into the kernel by default now | 15:39 |
| ldiamond | oh really? since when? 7 ? | 15:39 |
| ldiamond | or 8? | 15:39 |
| bazhang | jezz you can do both by default | 15:39 |
| Jezz | and i dont get the partitioner. i have 2 ntsf partitions now and want to create 1 for ubuntu | 15:39 |
| Jezz | :S | 15:39 |
| Jezz | is there a tut somewhere? | 15:39 |
| Keitai | in 8 I think so | 15:39 |
| amenado | VSpike-> what do you mean bind then? what is your exact command line? | 15:39 |
| ldiamond | nice | 15:39 |
| VSpike | amenado: I mean the dns server, bind9 .. named | 15:40 |
| jasmuz | Hello all | 15:40 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | ANYONE know where the open in this window option is in ubuntu | 15:40 |
| Keitai | jezz: gparted is a nice partitioning program | 15:40 |
| xgwpc | amenado -> the "Try Ubuntu without any change to your computer" option has asked me for u/p every single time I boot it. | 15:40 |
| Jezz | oh ok | 15:40 |
| fiyawerx | N1N31NCHN41L5, "open" ? | 15:40 |
| ldiamond | but Partition Magic is better :p | 15:40 |
| bazhang | jezz the partitioner will resize your windows install to make room for itself and install there | 15:40 |
| roxahris | Hey | 15:40 |
| n0kS | people how can I make a new partition with my ubuntu installed??? I want to install another OS | 15:40 |
| roxahris | How do I set GNOME as the default window manager? | 15:40 |
| Jezz | yeah i have partition magic but i cant figure it out what partitions i need for a linux install? | 15:40 |
| amenado | VSpike-> it has a config file to listen in on all (0.0.0.0) or specific interface? i cant remember where that is set | 15:40 |
| Jezz | because you can only select use entire disk or manual | 15:41 |
| bazhang | roxahris: in the login window under session | 15:41 |
| Jezz | or i can only select* | 15:41 |
| lonely | hallo | 15:41 |
| roxahris | But | 15:41 |

| n0kS | Mick3Y2007 you have downloaded DivX video, so if you want to play it on DVD Player you should know if this player supports DivX playing, burning the disk is easy | 15:44 |
| fiyawerx | N1N31NCHN41L5, are you using xfce or gnome? | 15:44 |
| noob-africa_ | actually, the driver for my nvidia card, GeForce 6800, isnt really working | 15:44 |
| jasmuz | Silly question here: I just slapped a new SATA 160 gb drive, how can i make it usable for all users? I can acces it under Gnome, but it dosen't allow me to copy data into it. | 15:44 |
| JParker | I'm Geforce 7700 | 15:44 |

| n0kS | noob-africa_ JParker I had the same problem when I upgraded..... I solved it installing another time my Ubuntu 7.10 (from a CD I have) and upgrading to Ubuntu8.04 | 15:46 |
| amenado | xgwpc-> hang on, i choosed the wrong one, still booting | 15:46 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | fiyawerx: gnome | 15:46 |
| VSpike | amenado: I'm not sure which things you are referring to.. which version of bind? | 15:46 |
| mshaw32 | Evolution and Exchange help please | 15:46 |
| cashmoney | I want a preconfigured e-mail/web/mysql server like ubuntu dide with the newer server release | 15:46 |
| amenado | xgwpc it boot right into a desktop, thats a hardy 8.04 | 15:46 |
| cashmoney | with "LAMP" | 15:46 |
| fiyawerx | N1N31NCHN41L5, Not too sure then, when I open a folder on the desktop, it opens in the "explorer-like" view with the list of locations on the side, which then any other folder i click open in the same window | 15:46 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | fiyawerx: i do have xfce downloaded also - so i can start a xfce session but gnome runs faster on this old pc | 15:46 |
| noob-africa_ | n0kS: but i upgraded online, from 7.10 to 8.04... i didnt upgrade from LiveCD of 8.04 | 15:47 |
| cashmoney | xfce would run faster than gnome.. that' sfor sure | 15:47 |
| amenado | VSpike-> is it the client you are having problem or is it the bind server? | 15:47 |
| jasmuz | jrib, any idea? | 15:47 |
| fiyawerx | N1N31NCHN41L5, when you open the first window, go to help and about | 15:47 |
| fiyawerx | is it running thunar or gnome | 15:47 |
| n0kS | noob-africa_ me neither, I only installed the 7.10 from the CD, later I upgraded online like yo | 15:47 |
| jrib | !permissions > jasmuz (read the private message from ubotu) | 15:47 |
| n0kS | you* | 15:47 |
| fiyawerx | i mean thunar or nautilus | 15:47 |
| noob-africa_ | n0kS: do u think i should run dpkg -configure -a ? | 15:47 |
| jasmuz | jrib, Dankon! | 15:48 |
| xgwpc | amenado -> i d/led "ubuntu-8.04-desktop-i386.iso" , burned it to cd and booted. goes right to u/p screen | 15:48 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | fiyawerx: thank u thunar - i got it now all of a sudden for some reason | 15:48 |
| southafrikanse | I have no sound on Ubuntu. I had it before I had to reinstall everything back but now only with headphones | 15:48 |
| fiyawerx | yeah looks like x's explorer is taking over | 15:48 |
| jrib | jasmuz: set permissions on it (ie where you mounted it to) as you would any other file on your system (using chmod/chown as ubottu's link expands on) | 15:48 |
| n0kS | noob-africa_ try it, I don't know if it will works | 15:48 |
| xgwpc | amenado -> I checked the MD5 and it matched | 15:48 |
| amenado | xgwpc I dont know what you got, on mine it boot right into a desktop, thats a hardy 8.04 ..thats the purpose of live, no user/password needed to try | 15:48 |
| noob-africa_ | n0kS: strange... sudo doesnt work... it doesnt prompt me for the password | 15:48 |
| noob-africa_ | will be back | 15:49 |
| VSpike | amenado: the server ... i tried different client machines, some windows and some unix | 15:49 |
| jasmuz | jrib, the issue is.. i havent created a mount point, i did so a while ago.. but failed miserably as it would not load properly.. before it used to be so easy now fstab has UID | 15:49 |
| SliderMan | hello all, I need help configuring my vid card (ProSavageDDR) hardy 8.04 | 15:49 |
| xgwpc | amenado -> I've done other versions of ubuntu (from 5+) and never had this problem. | 15:49 |
| VSpike | amenado: the server will answer queries on local interface only, i.e. from a shell on the server itself. but other clients on the lan don't get responses | 15:49 |
| jrib | jasmuz: ok, which part aren't you sure about? how to get the uuid? | 15:50 |
| mshaw32 | Does anyone know how to get Evolution to connect to Exchange??? | 15:50 |
| amenado | VSpike-> isnt there a config file to where and which interface it should bind to? am pretty sure it has a config file like that | 15:50 |
| n0kS | mshaw32 what is Exchange? | 15:50 |
| mshaw32 | Seriously? | 15:50 |
| VSpike | amenado: I've looked in the config files and can't see any likely entry | 15:51 |
| jasmuz | jrib, getting the uuid, adding it to fstab properly so it can be mounted to all users at boot | 15:51 |
| VSpike | amenado: also, the man pages don't mention it | 15:51 |
| n0kS | if I asked I don't know :) | 15:51 |
| southafrikanse | I have no sound on Ubuntu. I had it before I had to reinstall everything back but now only with headphones | 15:51 |
| amenado | xgwpc am not sure what you got..why it even asked for a user /password dont make sense to me | 15:51 |
| VSpike | amenado: netstat -l shows listening sockets too, which is odd | 15:51 |
| SliderMan | allso I tried the auto detect script but it crashed my system and I had to recover the backup using the recovery option through gnome | 15:51 |
| mshaw32 | Oh Sorry I thought you were just giving me a hard time cuz I am new here | 15:51 |
| amenado | VSpike let me google for some hints.. | 15:51 |

| mshaw32 | It is an Email Server | 15:51 |

| jrib | jasmuz: 'sudo blkid' will give you the uuid. It's the same as without the uuid except you write "UUID=long_string_of_random_stuff" instea of "/dev/sda1" | 15:52 |
| xgwpc | amenado -> tks for trying. I guess I'll wait for 8.10 IBIS in 6 months | 15:52 |

| amenado | VSpike-> it allows for up to three servers in /etc/resolv.conf | 15:57 |
| LinuxRev1 | 'sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart' this? | 15:57 |
| arek123_ | ssh how? | 15:57 |

| mshaw32 | Rambo any thoughs how to get past that error? | 15:58 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | fiyawerx: THANK YOU | 15:58 |
| rambo3 | mshaw32, can you try aptiutde in terminal : sudo aptitude install evolution-dev | 15:58 |
| hwilde | when I apt-get install openssh-server from the livecd, where does it actually install to ? | 15:58 |
| VSpike | amenado: cool.. thanks | 15:58 |
| SliderMan | =( | 15:58 |
| tARrAScH | LinuxRev1: wait one sec... What exact symptom problem do you have? | 15:58 |
| mshaw32 | umm... | 15:58 |
| amenado | cashmoney-> I assume what it tells you is correct? it does not have a /lib/init/vars/sh existing? | 15:58 |
| mshaw32 | Not great with linux | 15:58 |
| mshaw32 | So just open a terminal and type that? | 15:58 |
| VSpike | another question - I changed the hostname in /etc/hostname, and now I find that when I try to use sudo it says "sudo: unable to resolve host server2" | 15:58 |
| tARrAScH | oooops, I think I mixed up the commands :p | 15:58 |
| cashmoney | amenado, that's correct, it's not there | 15:59 |
| SliderMan | hello all, I need help configuring my graphics card its ProSavageDDR in hardy 8.04, I have tried the auto config` script, but it crashed my system, and I had to recover the xorg.conf backup through the grub recovery option. can someone help me reconfig it, please? | 15:59 |
| hwilde | VSpike, fix /etc/hosts | 15:59 |
| rambo3 | mshaw32, yeah you type: sudo aptitude install evolution-dev | 15:59 |
| fiyawerx | N1N31NCHN41L5, no problem | 15:59 |
| amenado | VSpike-> you're welcome, just do not forget those lil thing about a period a the end of the domain i think that was a gotcha | 15:59 |
| Keitai | I mean do you want to forward a local port onto a remote server or the other way around? | 15:59 |
| arek123_ | Keitai: I need to forward ports 6112-6119 for playing game via battle net. | 15:59 |
| cashmoney | so how would I fix it? | 16:00 |
| SliderMan | isnt battle.net is for windows | 16:00 |
| SliderMan | ? | 16:00 |
| arek123_ | i have wine | 16:00 |
| cashmoney | SliderMan: it's for directx | 16:00 |
| cashmoney | used under windows, correct | 16:00 |
| amenado | VSpike both /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname has to have your hostname entries | 16:00 |
| Keitai | oh you mean port forwarding as in "forwarding ports from my router" eh? | 16:00 |
| cashmoney | Keitai: no.. from one network card, to the next | 16:01 |
| SliderMan | cashmoney isnt it the same? since directx is for windows? | 16:01 |
| SliderMan | lmao. | 16:01 |
| cashmoney | SliderMan: lolol.. no | 16:01 |
| tARrAScH | poor LinuxRev1... I told him the wrong command :-/ | 16:01 |
| amenado | !who | Keitai | 16:01 |
| SliderMan | crashmoney how come? | 16:01 |
| ubottu | Keitai: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 16:01 |
| arek123_ | i think i need forwarding ports from router | 16:01 |
| SliderMan | tarrasch he will come back Oo | 16:01 |
| cashmoney | arek123_: you trying to setup a dmz? or just a single port forward? | 16:02 |
| rambo3 | !universe > mshaw32 | 16:02 |
| Keitai | cash: @_@ | 16:02 |
| arek123_ | i don't know what is a dmz. | 16:02 |
| Keitai | ubottu: lool | 16:02 |
| hwilde | arek123_, why do you think you need to forward ports ? | 16:02 |
| jasmuz | jrib, how about this # /dev/sdb1 | 16:02 |

| tARrAScH | SliderMan: anyway :p... if he comes, I meant to paste him this command 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg' mixed them up, anyway g2g | 16:02 |
| Prose | anyhow care to explain if there is a way ssh server can drop requests from an IP who go the password wrong more than x number of times ? | 16:02 |
| Keitai | ubottu: ^^ 'll try to do it that way | 16:03 |
| arek123_ | hwilde: because i want to play with my friend | 16:03 |
| VSpike | amenado, hwilde : thanks .. that fixed it | 16:03 |
| bergquist | Prose: denyhosts or something like that | 16:03 |

| ldiamond | Can any1 help me out? I'm trying to install Ubuntu on a USB HARD DRIVE. I tried many ways, they all failed! I need GRUB (Or any bootloader that supports dos, win, lin, others) installed on the USB HARD DRIVE. | 16:03 |
| jrib | jasmuz: now you need <options> <dump> and <pass> like the other lines | 16:03 |
| jrib | jasmuz: and <filesystem> first | 16:03 |
| Keitai | arek123_: if I get this right it has to be done in your router settings page | 16:03 |
| jasmuz | jrib, its already stated on my fstab file | 16:04 |
| RC | can i use k3b with gnome? tnaks | 16:04 |

| Benjamin_L | Hi, can someone tell me why we don't have an intrepid forum on ubuntuforums.org? | 16:04 |
| hwilde | Prose, man sshd_config /MaxAuthTries | 16:04 |
| Keitai | arek123_: there you can enable port forwarding to your local PC | 16:04 |
| jasmuz | RC, yes you can sudo aptitude install k3b -y | 16:04 |
| jrib | jasmuz: ah, never mind I see that you lost spaces when you pasted. Looks fine, just make sure you create /mnt/vault, then save the file and run 'sudo mount -a' | 16:04 |
| jasmuz | Done! | 16:04 |
| tony55 | ldia you sure it's grub is the windows the first choice in boot menu | 16:05 |
| arek123_ | Keitai: But i need static ip too, i think... | 16:05 |
| RC | great, thanks jasmuz | 16:05 |

| ldiamond | tony, windows is the first choice yes | 16:05 |
| ldiamond | tony, you can register to nickserv | 16:05 |
| hwilde | Prose, you put MaxAuthTries in your /etc/ssh/sshd_config file and then restarted the ssh daemon ? | 16:05 |
| Keitai | arek123_: usually router also take host names | 16:05 |
| Prose | hwilde: I set it to MaxAuthTries 4 and unsuccessfully put in a wrong password 5 times and nothing happened :( | 16:06 |
| tony55 | ldia then that is the boot manager from windows not grub | 16:06 |

| bazhang | Benjamin_L: this is not the channel for that go to #ubuntu+1 | 16:08 |
| tony55 | ldiamond, oh hmmm then it prob can't d it since usb port has not been opened at bootup or boot menu | 16:08 |
| Prose | hwilde: sudo /etc/init.d/sshd restart doesnt work by itself... but sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart does | 16:08 |
| hydrogen | Benjamin_L: we've never been able to fix untelligence :/ | 16:08 |

| fiyawerx | Benjamin_L, Benjamin_L> I wonder why the ubuntu community is getting this dumb | 16:10 |

| tony55 | noob-africa_,did you try installing the nvidia driver from add/remove | 16:23 |
| noob-africa_ | tony55: add/remove? how? | 16:23 |

| kpzani | noob-africa: side question are you using desktop or server | 16:23 |
| jasmuz | polete, answer | 16:23 |
| arek123_ | Keitai: what now? | 16:23 |
| Keitai | arek123_: my text is localized so I can't tell you how exactly this page is labeled but it should be something like network rules | 16:23 |

| bennyf11 | Hey is it possible to completely reinstall the whole mysql database, databases, users and all?? | 16:24 |
| tony55 | noob-africa_,appilcations menu add/remove programs | 16:24 |
| Keitai | arek123_: in the lowest box right-click and say "add rule" | 16:24 |
| legend2440 | powerking: go to system.preferences>keyboard>layouts>layout options>misc compatibility options try clicking default numeric keypad keys and/or shift with numeric keypad works as in ms windows | 16:24 |
| arek123_ | Keitai: ok | 16:24 |
| noob-africa_ | opened add/remove and searched for nvidia... nada! | 16:24 |
| Keitai | arek123_: then you can specify the port range | 16:24 |
| ChaosTheory_ | Or is it specific to xterm? | 16:24 |
| powerking | legend2440: your fix appears to have worked :) (I tried it a couple more times with both shift keys :) )Thanks | 16:24 |
| Goch | GUCK | 16:25 |
| arek123_ | Keitai:is it forwarding? | 16:25 |
| legend2440 | powerking: yw | 16:25 |
| tony55 | noob-africa_,in the add/remove set it to all available programs then do a search | 16:25 |
| scunizi | noob-africa_, open synaptic and do the same.. System/Administratin/synaptic | 16:25 |

| ubottu | noob-africa_: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 16:25 |
| Keitai | arek123_: no, that's not "forwarding". you only allow traffic to that port on your local PC | 16:25 |
| drivetrax | powerking, what worked? | 16:25 |
| kpzani | gotta go, i'll try again later. if anyone is feeling knowledgable and frisky, perhaps they could update the binary driver howto for hardy heron. | 16:26 |

| jasmuz | biabia, there is no GOOD and STANDARD amount, it all depends on your workload is the machine a server or just a desktop? | 16:27 |
| Keitai | arek123_: when you open a new network game, local ports will be opened to which your friend can connect to. but because your router has the real IP you have to tell him that your PC behind it may receive those ports,that is the actual "port forwarding" | 16:27 |

| luca | Hi, I have a problem with ubuntu 8.04 and evolution-data-server. This package send the cpu to the 100% of use..... | 16:33 |
| jrib | jasmuz: so if you replace the UUID=blah stuff, with /dev/sdb1, that works? | 16:33 |
| jasmuz | tony55, the issue isnt regarding the formatting of the filesystem it just wont be loaded under mount -a | 16:34 |
| luca | someone knows a solution? | 16:34 |
| jasmuz | jrib, remember that fstab dosent work in the old way anymore | 16:34 |

| jasmuz | matthias_N, sudo aptitude install unrar -y | 16:35 |
| stbain | errr... something like that | 16:35 |
| luca | but sometimes i find a process called evolution-data-server that use all the cpu | 16:35 |
| fiyawerx | noob-africa_, if you have them registered, you can ghost them off, if not you'll have to wait until they disconnect | 16:35 |
| sadiel | Hello there. Running Hardy Heron. I can get sound when playing armagetron advanced. Sound is all right in everything else. Any hint? | 16:35 |

| sadiel | I got an integrated intel sound chip | 16:36 |
| matthias_N | jasmus will that install another archive manager ? | 16:36 |
| Kezote | buenos dias ..? | 16:36 |
| luca | for me it's a bug | 16:36 |
| stbain | luca: kill it then. If you're not using Evolution, I'm going to guess you probably don't need the data server | 16:36 |
| jrib | jasmuz: it works fine, I just remounted a partition that wayf | 16:36 |
| matthias_N | stbain: restricted ??? | 16:36 |

| Tatster | Hi all. Got a strange problem, once I login with any user account on my 8.04 machine - if I move the mouse the speaker icon appears in the middle of the screen and then the main menu does not work anymore - left click or right click. | 16:37 |
| matthias_N | stbain: any way to remove that restrictions ??? | 16:37 |
| stbain | matthias_N: there's a bundle of software in the restricted repository that has something to do with unrar | 16:37 |
| Kezote | i'm using 8.04 is cool ... but i like the old one ! | 16:37 |
| astro76 | Kezote: http://releases.ubuntu.com/ | 16:37 |
| arek123_ | Keitai: Hmm my firestarter is closing itself. And my friend is offline and i can't check. | 16:37 |

| jasmuz | jrib, im doing the following... the way you told me to get the UUID, placed it in fstab, saved it.. sudo mount -a and wham! error | 16:37 |
| RC_ | when I was using windows, while watching a youtube video, I had the possibility to download it (a pop up of realplayer on Internet explorer). Can u suggest me please something similar on ubuntu for firefox? thanks | 16:37 |
| nikolam | Kezote: Everywhere. Just edit download path and you gill get list of versions | 16:37 |
| luca | yes stbain i kill the process, but this is not a solution | 16:37 |
| Tatster | If I do Alt-F1 I can get the drop down menu and open apps etc, but not via the mouse | 16:37 |
| Kezote | ok... thanx U | 16:38 |
| jrib | jasmuz: yes, now I am asking that you try using /dev/sdb1 instead of UUID=blah | 16:38 |
| astro76 | RC_: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2390 | 16:38 |

| Prose | anyone know of a relatively secure ftp service which can be installed on ubuntu ? I have heard that ftp itself is pretty weak but I still need to give remote access to files on the server and don't want the user to go through ssh | 16:38 |
| Keitai | arek123_: if you hit the "X" button, it closes only the user interface, but the rule is still active. if you just want to hide it in tray, the click on the tray icon once | 16:38 |
| stbain | matthias_N: Actually, I think installing unrar will do the trick | 16:38 |
| matthias_N | jasmuz: thank you will try that if not possible in my own archive manager , thanks | 16:39 |
| RC_ | thanks astro76 | 16:39 |
| Keitai | arek123_: what game are you running? WC3? | 16:39 |
| fiyawerx | Prose, vsftpd? | 16:39 |
| scunizi | luca, evolution and evolution-data-server are tied to all kinds of things.. just uninstall evolution and see if the data server goes away.. | 16:39 |
| arek123_ | Keitai:Thanks... I'm running Diablo 1 | 16:39 |
| jasmuz | matthias_N, do that so you can extract rar in the archive manager | 16:39 |

| albuntu | hello. i want an advice for a server. is better to install ubuntu server edition and add a desktop environment to it or is better to install ubuntu desktop edition and add lamp and other things needed to it ? | 16:42 |
| astro76 | biabia: probably NTFS, although ext3 is possible with a windows driver, mountpoint doesn't matter, but an example: /media/share | 16:42 |
| stbain | albuntu: depends on what you're going to be using it for. Is this for development or production? | 16:42 |
| jasmuz | jrib, nope.. im kinda dumb regarding permissions, wouldnt it be easier if fstab loaded it so.. i placed the "default" option on load, wich translate to "users" | 16:42 |
| mushtaq | stbain but it require thin clients am i rite ? | 16:42 |
| stbain | mushtaq: no | 16:43 |
| albuntu | stbain: production | 16:43 |
| scunizi | albuntu, if you want lamp is easier to install server and add desktop | 16:43 |
| Keitai | arek123_: nkay. should work but I will be here for some time. so you can ask me later on, too | 16:43 |
| stbain | albuntu: server then desktop then | 16:43 |
| biabia | astro76: ok ill go with NTFS so I wont have to mess with a driver. thanks! | 16:43 |
| jrib | jasmuz: no, it doesn't work that way. Did you read the link I gave you earlier about permissions? | 16:43 |

| mushtaq | both albuntu | 16:44 |
| mushtaq | albuntu the one you like | 16:44 |
| Keitai | arek123_: yes, both settings are required | 16:44 |
| stbain | albuntu: Not that it's any of my business... but if it's for a production server, why are you installing a GUI on it | 16:44 |
| stbain | why even have Gnome or KDE? | 16:44 |
| Keitai | arek123_: port forwarding on your router as well as allowing it in your desktop firewall | 16:44 |
| jasmuz | jrib, thanks.. so by setting the permissions would do? | 16:45 |
| arek123_ | Keitai: do i need setup a static ip? | 16:45 |

| stbain | thiebaude: don't click System Monitor | 16:55 |

| nordle | Jericom: I've always used Slackware, it just works....after you spend several hours installing extra stuff :) If you find anything on evolution, let me know. I'm googling, but not found anything specific in particular. | 16:56 |
| jrib | kelvin911: open ~/.profile in a text editor and type it in | 16:56 |
| stbain | thiebaude: I'd say open a terminal and just use the "top" command until you can figure out what's causing it. | 16:56 |
| kelvin911 | is .profile a file or dir? | 16:56 |
| jrib | kelvin911: file | 16:56 |

| ommegang | anyone running virtualbox on amd-64bit? how did u get it to start | 16:57 |
| cashmoney | so just revert back to 6.06? | 16:57 |
| KlrSp1 | didn't say supported, said suggested... it's never good to upgrade that drastically on ANY distro, even windows | 16:57 |
| jrib | wanderingii: "notification area"? | 16:57 |
| laguha | Can i remote install pkgs on my ubuntu server? | 16:57 |

| stbain | laguha: yes | 16:57 |
| arek123_ | Keitai: After i forwarded ports in firestarter i can't forward ports in router. | 16:57 |
| jrib | kelvin911: sure, just write a small shell script | 16:57 |
| lnxnt_ | ubuntu rocks | 16:58 |
| Jericom | Its basically to watch that activity on the nics | 16:58 |
| kelvin911 | jrib: can u teach me how? | 16:58 |
| laguha | Do you have a guide to taht | 16:58 |

| serena | anyone? | 16:58 |
| KlrSp1 | So does anyone know how to restore default config files for apache? i did a purge and reinstall, no go | 16:58 |
| kelvin911 | jrib: do i make a file and put "export AWT_TOOLKIT=MToolkit" and ./xmaple there? | 16:58 |
| stbain | laguha: log in via SSH, then just type sudo apt-get install [package name] | 16:58 |
| Simonft | serena: try asking again | 16:58 |
| dampit07 | Simonft: it is a hp privilion dv9410us. im trying it one last time right now with installing it in windows to see if it will work one last time before i do anything else, but i just wanted to get a head start and see if you where on in case it didnt work so we could find out another route of doing it | 16:58 |
| jrib | kelvin911: the first line is #!/bin/bash the lines after that are commands just like you would type in your shell. Then save the file, and make it executable. Understand? | 16:58 |
| Keitai | arek123_: ??? Those are two independent things... Firestarter does not "forward" ports, but allows traffic to them locally. | 16:59 |
| kelvin911 | ok | 16:59 |
| laguha | Ok thanks! :) | 16:59 |
| kelvin911 | let me try | 16:59 |
| kelvin911 | when i put that script? | 16:59 |
| kelvin911 | jrib: so i can run it in every dir? | 16:59 |
| niriven | Anyone have any favorite linux games? | 16:59 |
| kelvin911 | jrib: so i put it in /usr/local/bin? | 17:00 |
| jrib | kelvin911: you mean "where?"? ~/bin is fine | 17:00 |
| Keitai | arek123_: Port forwarding on the router side means the router lets traffic to a specified port through to the PC (aka "forwards") | 17:00 |
| jrib | or that | 17:00 |
| stbain | niriven: World of Warcraft count? | 17:00 |

| white_eagle | Ok, so I have ths problem with Virtual consoles not appearing when I press ctrl-alt-f[1-6] and also nothing happens if I do a ctrl-alt-f6 or f7 and someone in here told me to remove everything that had vga=791 in it and run sudo update-grub after that, a dialogue (in the terminal) showed up which told me I have to choose which version of grub should i take (the maintainers version, the version I have already installed and options to | 17:01 |
| white_eagle | 2) so someone in here told me I should choose the 'maintainers version' option and reboot to see what happens, so I did that, but I shut down the computer and went out, when i came back today the computer booted as normal but ctrl-alt-f[1-8] still don't give me anything and you'll find my current menu.lst file in here http://rafb.net/p/GEFLBe97.txt | 17:01 |

| jimmyg00n | Is this possible? | 17:02 |
| Flynsarmy | Jericom: System monitor? | 17:02 |
| jrib | kelvin911: pastebin what you have | 17:02 |
| bazhang | jimmyg00n: from a system already installed or nothing on the hard drive | 17:02 |
| kelvin911 | jrib: or cd ~/maple11/bin | 17:02 |

| jimmyg00n | bazhang: I have it installed on a usb drive, but I need to have this system hosted on the faster pc | 17:02 |
| jimmyg00n | bazhang, the pc in my room has no hard drive | 17:02 |

| wanderingii | thanks i might have found it | 17:03 |
| white_eagle | ooh I ment: when I press ctrl-alt-f[1-6] and also nothing happens if I do a ctrl-alt-f7 or f8 | 17:03 |
| white_eagle | sorry | 17:03 |
| Keitai | arek123_: so port forwarding is set in the configuration section "LAN Server" on the router interface | 17:03 |
| nordle | Jericom: sorry no, dont have any panel plugins except cpu monitor. | 17:03 |
| kelvin911 | jrib: so the working path is in ~/maple11/bin ?? | 17:03 |

| Keitai | arek123_: right? | 17:03 |
| jrib | kelvin911: depends if maple prefers it that way or not (but doing so is the safe bet) | 17:03 |
| arek123_ | Keitai: yes i think | 17:03 |

| jrib | white_eagle: check the bug tracker. There was a very similar bug in gutsy (and it had workarounds in the comments) | 17:09 |
| crescentmoon | Well that kills my theory of using restricted drivers :P | 17:09 |
| stbain | crescentmoon: Asus-something-or-other... not sure | 17:09 |
| serena | can I update the firmeware for my graphics card? | 17:10 |
| ne0 | so when i touch screen it reads my input wrong...i think i need calibrate it but dont know how | 17:10 |
| white_eagle | white_eagle: and where is the bug tracker | 17:10 |
| el_taco | I'm using restricted drivers for graphics tho. | 17:10 |
| jrib | white_eagle: bugs.ubuntu.com | 17:10 |
| Simonft | drock12: no idea, seems to be a problem with the laptop, did you drop it while installing hardy?:-D | 17:10 |
| shady | hmmm, I wish somebody had writter a calibration program for that | 17:10 |
| crescentmoon | Yeah usually restricted drivers fix my little "nuances" if you were running a creative card i would definitely say that was the problem, but integrated.... not sure | 17:10 |
| Keitai | serena: I wonder about the firmware update but drivers can be reinstalled either in the synaptics packet manager or with aptitude/apt | 17:10 |
| stbain | el_taco: I'm betting it's something to do with the ALSA configuration. But for now, I'm satisfied with just cranking everything up except for one app... Ventrilo under Wine. Some people come through just great, others come through too quiet to hear. Very odd. | 17:11 |

| crescentmoon | Mudasssar it's a good time to learn! | 17:35 |

| Simonft | dampit07: lol, install 7.04 by following the link, then upgrade, and file a bug | 17:35 |
| tritium | Mudassar: that's an opinion, not a statement of fact | 17:35 |
| bazhang | Mudassar: then you need to do a bit of reading and ask informed questions here-->but complaining loudly and long will win you no quick answers | 17:35 |
| crescentmoon | Linux is great, well better than your alternatives, but just like learning anything new there is a learning curve. Once you learn you'll say why did I wait so long? | 17:35 |

| noelferreira | unop, yes of course the problem with the keys being stucked like i sai | 17:50 |
| noelferreira | *said | 17:50 |
| noelferreira | i will paste it unop | 17:51 |
| Pelo | ryugaka, have you tried hardy ? wifi support is gettting better | 17:51 |
| Simonft | ryugaka: what type of card | 17:51 |
| ogra | Prose, did you try Places->Connection to Server ? | 17:51 |
| shady | are U already in the directory you just extracted??? | 17:51 |
| shady | ne0??? | 17:51 |
| hwilde | !fuse | Prose | 17:51 |
| ubottu | Prose: FUSE (Filesystem in Userspace) is a !kernel driver that allows non-root users to create their own filesystems. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_in_Userspace for more on FUSE. Some examples of filesystems that use FUSE are !ntfs-3g, sshfs and isofs. A full list of Filesystems that use FUSE is here: http://fuse.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/FileSystems | 17:51 |
| ogra | Prose, nautilus has builtin ftp support | 17:51 |
| ryugaka | uhhhhh something 1390 | 17:51 |
| bitfrost | Hi Pelo, because in our country Internet is too expensive, so I can help rural communities downloading the hardy repo, I am downloading it right now, but, I get an error that the file is being truncated | 17:51 |
| ne0 | shady once i untar it what do i do? | 17:51 |
| Prose | ogra: thanks but I am looking for something a little more secure than naked FTP | 17:51 |
| shady | cd into it | 17:51 |
| Pelo | bitfrost, if you downlod the dvd that will get you the full main and restricted repos | 17:52 |
| narothepharoh | I just updated to 8.04 and now wine will not work ive tried to uninstall and reinstall but when i go to browse the c drive it says url not supported? | 17:52 |
| noelferreira | unop, http://pastebin.com/m71cbb3fe sometimes they get stucked and other times aren't inserted | 17:52 |
| ne0 | k well after that? | 17:52 |
| ogra | Prose, ah | 17:52 |
| Prose | ogra: also, I want a samba-like interface for the ftp server but it seems fuse does it differently and better | 17:52 |
| ryugaka | and i used the hardy beta for a while and the wireless was lousy | 17:52 |
| bazhang | hi Pelo ;] | 17:52 |
| Simonft | ryugaka: what wireless card? | 17:52 |
| unop | noelferreira, hmm, what does this give you? echo $LANG | 17:52 |
| crescentmoon | Naro... after you uninstalled Wine, did you delete the "Fake" C drive it creates. It won't reset any prior settings unless you do that before you reinstall | 17:52 |
| Prose | hwilde: so I guess thanks again for the 2nd time today ! | 17:52 |
| ryugaka | let me go find it :/ | 17:52 |
| Pelo | bitfrost, maybe you can check the get involved section of the website and see about setting up your own mirror | 17:52 |
| Pelo | hey bazhang | 17:53 |
| hwilde | ryugaka, I have wireless working in every flavor. what is your issue | 17:53 |
| shady | cd linuxwacom-0.8.0 | 17:53 |
| shady | ne0 | 17:53 |
| ogra | Prose, well, in the backend it will still do what the server provides (ftp) | 17:53 |
| bitfrost | O really thanks! can you point it where i can download it, it is the same image.ubuntu.com I think | 17:53 |
| bitfrost | ? | 17:53 |
| thingfish | msg ubotu nvidia | 17:53 |
| thingfish | aack | 17:53 |
| ryugaka | broadcom 1390 | 17:53 |
| bazhang | ryugaka: that is a broadcom | 17:53 |
| xenomorph99 | Anyone have any experience of installing ubuntu server to an IDE compact flash ? | 17:53 |
| Pelo | bitfrost, the dvd ? hold on | 17:53 |
| ne0 | yea but i meant once im in what do i do | 17:53 |
| hwilde | Prose, ogra fuse + sshfs http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/10/28/how-to-mount-a-remote-ssh-filesystem-using-sshfs/ | 17:53 |
| Pelo | !torrents | bitfrost | 17:53 |
| ubottu | bitfrost: Hardy can be torrented from http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.04/ubuntu-8.04-desktop-i386.iso.torrent or http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.04/ubuntu-8.04-server-amd64.iso.torrent depending on your architecture. Torrents for other Ubuntu flavours can be found at: http://releases.ubuntu.com/ (CD) or http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases (DVD). | 17:53 |
| ne0 | make file? | 17:53 |
| ogra | hwilde, ftp ? | 17:53 |
| ryugaka | bwcutter or whatever gives me a lousy wireless connection | 17:53 |
| hwilde | ogra, ssh | 17:53 |
| ryugaka | and ndiswrapper doesn't work right | 17:53 |
| hwilde | ryugaka, why don't you just drop $50 on a decent wireless card ? | 17:54 |
| noelferreira | pt_PT.UTF-8 | 17:54 |
| ogra | hwilde, he asked for a secure ftp client if i'm not wrong :) | 17:54 |
| Simonft | ryugaka: I have a link somewhere, im on one rith now | 17:54 |
| noelferreira | unop, pt_PT.UTF-8 | 17:54 |
| === ger is now known as ervis | ||
| ryugaka | i was using ubuntu1501 | 17:54 |
| ervis | hi all | 17:54 |
| ryugaka | for tutorials | 17:54 |
| ogra | hwilde, which is indeed a contradiction in itself ;) | 17:54 |
| ryugaka | but even they don't know how to fix it :/ | 17:54 |
| cesar__ | hi world of freedom | 17:54 |
| kakalotsai | hi | 17:54 |
| Pelo | !enter | ryugaka | 17:54 |
| ubottu | ryugaka: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 17:54 |
| nouri | somebody can tell me how to upgrade to ubuntu 8.04 from the server | 17:54 |
| kakalotsai | find my freedom | 17:54 |
| hwilde | ogra, he wants a way for users to mount a remote filesystem securely, with a gui browser. fuse + sshfs will do that within nautilus, but ssh backend http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/10/28/how-to-mount-a-remote-ssh-filesystem-using-sshfs/ | 17:54 |
| Pelo | ryugaka, what is your issue again ? | 17:55 |
| Pelo | in one line | 17:55 |
| geoffrian | Ahoyhoy | 17:55 |
| ne0 | or do i have to do something with the other file shady? after i get into the dir | 17:55 |
| bitfrost | Thanks I will start to download it right away | 17:55 |
| ryugaka | wireless not working correctly mostly. | 17:55 |
| Simonft | ryugaka: sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter | 17:55 |
| shady | just leave it like that | 17:55 |
| Obsoleet | Hi could someone recommend a media center solution/setup for ubuntu? basically looking to watch tv, download movies, and listen to my audio collection. | 17:55 |
| Simonft | ryugaka: then restart | 17:55 |
| shady | cd into the dir I gave you | 17:55 |
| ryugaka | But then I get a 1mb connection. | 17:55 |
| LogicalDash | Obsoleet: sounds like you want Mythbuntu | 17:55 |
| ne0 | yea i did but now what | 17:55 |
| ogra | hwilde, well, then he should just use the by default builtin sftp handler in nautilus ;) (as well in Places->connect to server) | 17:55 |
| ryugaka | Instead of what I'm suppose to get. | 17:55 |
| shady | now do "more /proc/bus/usb/devices | 17:55 |
| shady | |grep wacom | 17:55 |
| Pelo | Obsoleet, ubuntu-studio ??? | 17:55 |
| kakalotsai | somebody cans help me? | 17:55 |

| tommy | Hallo | 17:56 |
| shady | It should return the word wacom itself | 17:56 |
| hwilde | ogra, right, which is why I first pointed him to proftpd | 17:56 |
| kakalotsai | oh thanks | 17:56 |
| Pelo | !enter | ryugaka | 17:56 |
| ubottu | ryugaka: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 17:56 |
| Simonft | ryugaka: a 1mb connectionis not so bad for a broadcom card | 17:56 |
| Obsoleet | thanks, will have a look at both suggestions now | 17:56 |
| noelferreira | unop, should i convertmy locale | 17:56 |
| ne0 | shady, i get this ash: syntax error near unexpected token `|' | 17:56 |

| bitfrost | Lets say 20 gb, do you have some experience with debmirror, I don´t want to it being redownloading everything again and again each time my internet connection goes down | 17:57 |
| LogicalDash | ryugaka, the connection strength has nothing to do with actual bandwidth | 17:57 |
| Simonft | ryugaka: what have you tried exactly to get the broadcom to work? | 17:57 |
| Bizzeh | is it at all possible to (easily) load up a volume in linux, that has been stretched across 2 dynamic disks? | 17:57 |

| kakalotsai | this is the first time i use it | 17:58 |
| kakalotsai | :D | 17:58 |
| ne0 | shady, did you get it | 17:58 |
| kakalotsai | thanks for all | 17:58 |
| crescentmoon | Broadcoms are a nightmare to deal with, because they are "dumb" cards that require the driver to be loaded onto the card everytime you use it. | 17:58 |
| ogra | kakalotsai, so you like it ? :) | 17:58 |

| ubottu | xenomorph99: 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 | 18:18 |
| crescentmoon | that is normal | 18:18 |
| xenomorph99 | I did. It won't fit onto the 2GB flash card | 18:18 |
| ogra | crescentmoon, well kakalotsai doesnt seem to get that :) | 18:19 |
| Simonft | does sudo apt-get install wine work? | 18:19 |
| MachinTrucChose | machintrucchose: so how do I stop that? What I really want is to stop the constant hard drive access everytime I open a video folder (not to mention it re-generates everything if I move a video folder somewhere else!) | 18:19 |
| fidelio | hi everybody | 18:19 |

| fidelio | I upgraded from dapper to HArdy without problems..except that my external ntsf HD didn't get mounted...any idea? | 18:19 |
| kakalotsai | wait for me 1 sec | 18:19 |
| xenomorph99 | I think it's an issue with how the compact flash card is seen, not the installer | 18:19 |
| kakalotsai | when i clik check box | 18:20 |
| stbain | xenomorph99: could be, that's why I recommended the alternate CD. More likelihood of your flash card being detected | 18:20 |
| ogra | kakalotsai, right, what do you get then ? | 18:20 |
| papi001 | join # 100 | 18:20 |

| kakalotsai | i use ubuntu 7.10 | 18:21 |
| hydrogen | Thats off topic for this channel for 1 | 18:22 |
| noob-africa_ | actually it was very simple... i had two versions of the same driver... one from the Ubuntu repos and the second from NVIDIA | 18:22 |
| crescentmoon | inuk hahaha | 18:22 |
| Br0k3 | k thanks | 18:22 |
| crescentmoon | Find a proxy to use somewhere | 18:22 |
| ogra | kakalotsai, oh, i was assuming 8.04, sorry | 18:22 |
| noob-africa_ | so, under advise, i removed the one from Ubuntu repos, and kept the NVIDIA one... | 18:22 |
| stbain | xenomorph99: sounds like a similar problem I had trying to get 8.04 on my Dell Poweredge 2450s.... boots off hte CD then can't find the CD drive to install the packages. My solution was to install Dapper (Ubuntu 6.10) and then do the upgrade over the network. | 18:22 |
| noob-africa_ | it now works fine! | 18:22 |
| noob-africa_ | now i have to reconfigure the audio and i will be home free | 18:22 |

| sls | how do I unzip lots of files in a directory -- kind of like: for {*.zip} unzip $ | 18:22 |

| noob-africa_ | for the solution, please go to http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=709161 and read post #5 | 18:22 |
| kakalotsai | ok | 18:22 |
| hydrogen | sls: unzip *.zip | 18:23 |
| kakalotsai | lets me try | 18:23 |
| inukshux | hydrogen: I'm an ubuntu user. Where could I ask elsewhere? #haxx000rz? For now, it's for cheating. But if I wouldn't have told the reason, it'd be a technical question. | 18:23 |
| ogra | kakalotsai, in 8.04 that happens automatically | 18:23 |
| jrib | sls: for file in *; do unzip $file; done | 18:23 |
| hydrogen | inukshux: No, it would be off topic still | 18:23 |
| sls | jrib thanks | 18:23 |
| jrib | sls: better: for file in *.zip; do unzip $file; done | 18:23 |

| noob-africa_ | does anyone know why i am not getting audio? | 18:23 |
| hydrogen | #ubuntu does not have anything to do with ip address masking | 18:23 |
| ogra | kakalotsai, after that try add/remove again, it should work then | 18:23 |
| hydrogen | jrib: better? no | 18:23 |
| hydrogen | unzip *.zip | 18:23 |

| qman__ | xenomorph99, stbain, I had the same problem with older versions of Ubuntu (6.06), and my solution was to borrow a different CD drive and use that for the install | 18:24 |
| kakalotsai | ok | 18:24 |
| qman__ | xenomorph99, stbain, my other solution, for a dell laptop, was to install the ubuntu live CD on a USB stick, and boot from and install that | 18:24 |
| xenomorph99 | It's not the CD drive - or my usual hardware as I'm running 8.04 on it now | 18:24 |
| mynyml | anyone knows how to use b43-fwcutter ? | 18:24 |
| stbain | qman__: Yes, replacing the CD drive can solve the problem as well. In my case, wasn't another slimline available and the BIOS doesn't support booting from a USB stick. | 18:25 |
| kakalotsai | system->preferences->software sources( i can't find software sources) | 18:25 |
| stbain | old hardware FTL | 18:25 |
| xenomorph99 | The problem is that Ubuntu will not install to an IDE compact flash because it says it cannot locate a kernel for it in the apt sources | 18:25 |
| Simonft | mynyml: me, you having a problem with broadcom? | 18:25 |
| stbain | xenomorph99: which are... on the CD? | 18:25 |
| xenomorph99 | I've installed with the CD into my hard disk. It's not the cD | 18:25 |

| qman__ | heh | 18:25 |
| kakalotsai | what wrong? | 18:26 |
| fidelio | I upgraded from dapper to HArdy without problems..except that my external ntsf HD didn't get mounted...any idea? | 18:26 |
| stbain | xenomorph99: hrmmm.... try installing in a different machine and then transferring the IDE compact flash over? | 18:26 |
| jrib | hydrogen: unzip doesn't work like that | 18:26 |

| hischild | my XFS main partition crashed. It's telling me that it can't read the superblock. Is there a solution to this or did i lose all the data? | 18:29 |

| Simonft | mynyml: sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter try that | 18:29 |
| kakalotsai | wrong submenu? | 18:29 |
| stbain | eyyYo: unless ./filename is executable. Which, if it isn't, will be explained at the link ubottu just pasted. | 18:29 |
| qman__ | eyyYo, you need to make the file executable before you can execute it | 18:29 |
| linuxgeekery | hischild: can you mount it from the ubuntu livecd | 18:29 |

| ogra | kakalotsai, under system there are two menus | 18:30 |
| kakalotsai | i choose SYSTEM-->PREFERENCES | 18:30 |

| hischild | linuxgeekery, no i cannot. That's the point where it tells me it can't read the superblock. | 18:30 |
| Simonft | mynyml: you ran that exact line? | 18:30 |
| ogra | kakalotsai, right, is there also "administration" = | 18:30 |

| sadiel | Hello guys. I'm runing Ubuntustudio 8.04.I have a lot of issues with sound. I think it might be my soundcard, since it's an integrated one. (1) The issues are: I do not get sound on some games (armagetron, chromium) (2) Midi playback crashes when using finale 2002 on wine, either using the native timidity engine or using jack and qsynth. Funny thing is, when using finale 2007's native soundfont engine I got no prob. How can I tweak either timidity or jack | 18:34 |
| sadiel | or qsynth or | 18:34 |
| sadiel | wine to stop the crashes? Should I increase my soundcard priority? | 18:34 |
| stbain | matthew_: you could pipe in the pid with some regex matching | 18:34 |
| ogra | hischild, yes, apparently ... i wasnt aware that #ubuntu turned into a bot playground ... (i usually sit in other channels and didnt do #ubuntu for quite a while) | 18:34 |

| IndyGunFreak | Dvyjones: thats a first i've heard on that one, very unusual, although i've heard other issues relating to sound w/ that model. | 18:39 |
| stbain | matthew_: look at hte man page for the command, 'fuser'. It only outputs the PID to stdout, so you can use it to script and pipe to the kill command | 18:39 |
| kbrosnan | sini: most of them though if they are flash sometimes they end up on the wrong layer and become unclickable, in which case something like adblock or flashblock helps | 18:39 |

| Traveler02 | my apache site folder | 18:55 |
| Dvyjones | OK, Redefinition of my question after some testing: My sound comes from the speaker inside the computer AND the speakers connected to the soundcard. How do I make it ONLY come from the soundcard? | 18:55 |
| Starnestommy | rinaldi_: already registered | 18:55 |
| YaroMan86 | Onyx: That will take care of the packages in the temp directory. If you have some packages you don't need, sudo apt-get autoremove helps a lot, too. | 18:55 |
| Traveler02 | the folder where my html files etc are located | 18:55 |
| danbhfive | Traveler02: AAAHH, ok, you should learn about apache configuration then | 18:55 |

| neeto | how do you check how many outgoing connections you have active? | 18:56 |
| Traveler02 | But does all of apache's stuff have to be on the exact same partition | 18:56 |
| danbhfive | Traveler02: yeah, then just move the htdocs folder | 18:56 |

| MachinTrucChose | what archiver do you guys recommend for RAR files? Archive Manager doesn't have RAR support apparently O_O | 18:59 |
| nickellery | MachinTrucChose, use winrar | 18:59 |
| iGama | MachinTrucChose, apt-get install rar | 18:59 |
| hischild | MachinTrucChose, it does. Install rar. | 18:59 |
| MachinTrucChose | I know there are tons, I'm asking for the generally recommended one | 18:59 |
| ommegang | bits: i cant even get vbox installed hardy 64bit. | 18:59 |
| fde | MachinTrucChose: 'rar' and 'unrar' | 18:59 |
| bazhang | !rar | MachinTrucChose | 18:59 |
| ubottu | MachinTrucChose: rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free | 18:59 |
| MachinTrucChose | igama: that one is shareware | 18:59 |
| YaroMan86 | MachinTrucChose: You have to install the support. | 18:59 |
| MachinTrucChose | !info unrar-free | 18:59 |
| ubottu | unrar-free: Unarchiver for .rar files. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:0.0.1+cvs20070515-1 (hardy), package size 40 kB, installed size 124 kB | 18:59 |
| iGama | MachinTrucChose, there you have it... | 18:59 |
| iGama | :) | 18:59 |
| Bits | ommegang: try using the 32-bit compatibility pack and then install vbox | 18:59 |
| thiebaude | is alan here? | 18:59 |
| andreiutz | bazhang, I think so. I am not sure. After I had installed Hardy the wireless networked could be accessed trhough the start menu. Now the wireless option had disapeard. | 18:59 |
| ommegang | bits: where would i get that | 18:59 |
| Bits | ommegang: you can't run 64bit guests in vbox at the moment, as far as i know | 18:59 |
| jrib | !unrar > MachinTrucChose (read the private message from ubotu) | 19:00 |
| neeto | MachinTrucChose: Archive Manager is just a wrapper for various archiving methods. You can install support for rar with sudo apt-get install rar. | 19:00 |
| Bits | can't remember the package name, sorry | 19:00 |
| osmosis | Traveler02: huh? | 19:00 |

| osmosis | I put a 2ndary HD in my machine. How do I get it to show up ? | 19:00 |
| Dvyjones | My sound comes from the speaker inside the computer AND the speakers connected to the soundcard. How do I make it ONLY come from the soundcard? | 19:00 |
| drivetrax | what is the package neame for gnome mplayer? | 19:00 |
| nox-Hand | neeto: Yes. | 19:00 |
| nox-Hand | I do not wish to use GDM. | 19:00 |
| andreiutz | bazhang, 2 entries: eth0, lo | 19:00 |
| hischild | MachinTrucChose, use the one from the repo's. | 19:00 |
| ghostz | this is on older hardware | 19:00 |
| bazhang | !md5 | ghostz | 19:00 |
| ubottu | ghostz: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 19:00 |
| Dvyjones | !info unrar-free | 19:00 |

| ArticWolf | minerale ... how do i exit without menu bars?? | 19:01 |
| MachinTrucChose | right, so once I apt-get install unrar-free, Archive Manager will be able to extract RARs? | 19:01 |
| Bits | ommegang: i understand. there is a compatibility pack you can install into 64-bit ubuntu so that you can run 32-bit programs. I suggest you use it. | 19:01 |
| ghostz | i already verified the md5 | 19:01 |
| iGama | ommegang, but virtualbox 64bits is in virtualbox site to download | 19:01 |
| YaroMan86 | andreiutz: Just search for it in Synaptic. | 19:01 |
| neeto | MachinTrucChose: don't install winrar... install rar from apt-get... I don't think it will have a problem even if it is non-free... I haven't anyway. | 19:01 |
| Bits | ommegang: I gave up on using 64bit ubuntu anyways | 19:01 |
| bazhang | ghostz: did you testdisk in the startup window | 19:01 |
| Bits | iGama: good call. | 19:01 |
| jrib | MachinTrucChose: unrar-free is limited. Use "unrar" | 19:01 |
| Bits | ommegang: you see iGama's post? | 19:01 |
| andreiutz | YaroMan86, what is synaptic ? | 19:01 |
| Dvyjones | My sound comes from the speaker inside the computer AND the speakers connected to the soundcard. How do I make it ONLY come from the soundcard? | 19:01 |
| ommegang | bits: yeah i used the package from the site, i have 4gb of memory what do i lose besides ram on 32bit? | 19:01 |
| fde | ommegang: dpkg lacks good multilib support... you should go with the 32bit version. | 19:01 |
| bazhang | andreiutz: does lsmod -a show the module for taht | 19:02 |
| neeto | nox-Hand: if you don't want to use gdm, then I can't help you, keep asking, sorry. | 19:02 |
| ghostz | bazhang, i'm not sure how to testdisk...i didn't see that as an option on the boot | 19:02 |
| monkeypaw201 | Dvyjones: php5-mysql, mysql-server, mysql-common, mysql-server-5.0, php 5 are the packages installed... | 19:02 |
| Bits | ommegang: vms currently support up to 3gb ram (something to do with PAE) | 19:02 |
| YaroMan86 | andreiutz: System -> Adminitration -> Synaptic Package Manager | 19:02 |
| nox-Hand | neeto: Thanks for trying :) | 19:02 |
| MachinTrucChose | allright, I used unrar. Thanks guys. | 19:02 |
| ommegang | bits: i mean i have 4gb of ram in my system, 32bit os only sees what 3gb? | 19:02 |
| ghostz | any other ideas | 19:03 |
| Ashfire908 | is there a way to find what program keeps doing a lot of disk activity? | 19:03 |
| Bits | ommegang: sorry, i'm not focused. i'll stop polluting the air wave | 19:03 |
| neeto | ommegang: 3.6gigs, and 64 bit can see up to 8GB I believe.. | 19:03 |
| iGama | ommegang, it will see 4gb | 19:03 |
| European-African | hi, I'v just installed kde-desktop, hoe do I get into it? | 19:03 |
| minerale | articwolf: switch to the consle alt-f1 | 19:03 |
| iGama | ok 3.6 | 19:03 |
| hischild | neeto, 64 goes quite a bit higher. 32bit sees max of 4 minus a few things. | 19:03 |
| MachinTrucChose | european: at the login window, click "Select Session" and select KDE | 19:03 |
| minerale | articwolf: there login, and then reboot via: % sudo reboot | 19:03 |
| woddf2 | Hello | 19:03 |
| Deeps | ommegang: using PAE, you can see a whole lot more ram than juts 3.6gb, but with a minor performance hit | 19:03 |
| neeto | hischild: righto then :D | 19:03 |
| woddf2 | YouTube videos are slow! | 19:03 |
| nickellery | Ashfire908, take a look at System Monitor | 19:04 |
| jastr | howdy all | 19:04 |
| ghostz | if the md5 is correct, the cd verifies (which I had just looked over...it's running now) then is there any other possible causes for it to lock up at squashfs | 19:04 |
| neeto | woddf2: is it your connection speed or the actual rendering of a fully downloaded video? | 19:04 |
| European-African | MachinTrucChose: thanx | 19:04 |
| ommegang | so on a live boot of hardy64 virtualbox installs and i can start it, but on hdd install a no go | 19:04 |
| Dvyjones | monkeypaw201: Check the php.ini (/etc/php5/apache/php.ini) file, there should be a line that says "extesnion=mysql.so" (sans quotes) or something similar | 19:04 |
| andreiutz | bazhang, after #lsmod -a I get this output:Usage: lsmod | 19:04 |
| cookiemonster077 | i need an expert on dvd roms mine will only mount cds | 19:04 |
| ghostz | and it just locked up at squashfs on the integrity check | 19:04 |
| Dvyjones | My sound comes from the speaker inside the computer AND the speakers connected to the soundcard. How do I make it ONLY come from the soundcard? I have a HP Compaq dc7100 with Ubuntu 8.04 | 19:04 |
| woddf2 | neeto: The video is slow, but the sound is mostly fine. | 19:04 |
| MachinTrucChose | wood: are you using 100% CPU when playing the video? | 19:05 |
| vicky123 | can anyone tell me how to mount ntfs in linux | 19:05 |
| woddf2 | MachinTrucChose: Er.. | 19:05 |
| monkeypaw201 | Dvyjones: ok, i have it open | 19:05 |
| woddf2 | *Er... | 19:05 |
| Ashfire908 | nickellery, is there a way besides paing through open files and guessing if they are being written to | 19:05 |
| neeto | woddf2: do you have flashplugin-nonfree installed? Some of the other swf rendering engines don't seem to like youtube or flash games | 19:05 |
| YaroMan86 | vicky123: Should be seen in the computer screen of your file manager. You can mount it like any other partition. | 19:05 |
| woddf2 | neeto: I am using Adobe's version. | 19:05 |
| neeto | woddf2: what's your distro? | 19:06 |
| MachinTrucChose | woddf2: basically I had the same problem on my old computer. There's just no decent flash player, even the official one uses much more resources than on Windows (particularly if you full-screen). | 19:06 |
| iobelix | off late, it seems that firefox does not share sound with other apps. i.e: if i have firefox session open during which i had, for eg, played a youtube video, any concurrent session with sopcast or rhythmnbox etc does not play sound.. | 19:06 |
| woddf2 | neeto: I am using Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Hardy Heron. | 19:06 |
| ghostz | has anyone had and freezes during install of 8.04 | 19:06 |
| wil | hey im having this problem in 8.04 where music will not play, i have the restricted extras installed. has anyone heard of this issue? | 19:06 |
| Bits | neeto: all flash plugins seem to use way too many resources | 19:06 |
| ldiamond | I managed to make a bootable USB Hard Drive with ubuntu, however, it boots on my laptop and not my PC. On my PC, it simply launches Grub's command line. Why? | 19:06 |
| neeto | woddf2: x86 or 64bit? | 19:06 |
| Bits | neeto: at least in my experience | 19:06 |
| david_-_- | can anyone tell me if i need to recompile wine .61 to remove it since there is nothing to cd into but it is still installed and no matter what i try it wont go away | 19:06 |
| nickellery | Ashfire908, I would assume that anything with high RAM usage would be the culprit | 19:06 |
| woddf2 | neeto: x86 | 19:06 |
| neeto | Bits: yeah :/ I wish it was OSS... we could make it so much better | 19:07 |
| matthew_ | anyone know where netstat is located? ie: /usr/bin/netstat ? | 19:07 |
| ArticWolf | minerale ... ok rebooted ... it still does not have menu bars at top or bottom just the desktop icons displayed | 19:07 |
| Ashfire908 | nickellery, high ram usage does not mean high disk usage. | 19:07 |

| Dvyjones | IndyGunFreak: I have tested a bit, and the sound comes from BOTH the speakers plugged in to the motherboard-soundcard, AND the system-speaker inside the computer. How do I disable the computer inside the computer? | 19:08 |
| Bits | type /msg then nick | 19:08 |
| kbrosnan | sini: Firefox 2 does not work for me, took me a little while to fix my flash plugin | 19:08 |
| monkeypaw201 | Dvyjones: ok, i have it open and i see extesioon=msql.so and its commented out | 19:08 |
| neeto | kakalotsai: /msg nick <message> | 19:08 |
| Dvyjones | monkeypaw201: Not msql, mysql | 19:08 |
| minerale | articwolf: you could delete your gnome settings to reset them: in the command line do % rm -rf ~/.gnome* | 19:08 |
| matthew_ | !netstat | 19:08 |
| IndyGunFreak | Dvyjones: i have no idea. | 19:08 |
| Dvyjones | kakalotsai: You need to be registered | 19:08 |

| grzesiek | anybody has got problem with Intel Wireless 3945ABG? | 19:08 |
| iobelix | is anyone having a problem sharing sound between apps with hardy? i.e: if one app has used sound (even if it is not using sound at the moment but has in the past) and another app is launched, the second app does not have any sound | 19:08 |
| sini | kbrosnan, strange... | 19:08 |
| monkeypaw201 | Dvyjones: ok, i found mysql.so and thats commented out too | 19:08 |
| kakalotsai | ok | 19:09 |
| sini | kbrosnan, is adblock able to block those ads? | 19:09 |
| kakalotsai | thanks all | 19:09 |
| Dvyjones | monkeypaw201: Uncomment it, then restart apache | 19:09 |
| monkeypaw201 | Dvyjones: ok | 19:09 |
| ArticWolf | Yarakyo ... i got Run Error ... The command "gnome-panel" failed to run: .. Failed to excute child process "gnome-panel" (No such file or directory) | 19:09 |
| sini | krbosnan, or flashblock? | 19:09 |
| neeto | iobelix: you are probably using dsp to render sound... do you have alsa installed? | 19:09 |
| Bits | why move to 8.04 at all? gutsy seems fine..... | 19:09 |
| kbrosnan | sini: i would think so, i don't use it | 19:09 |
| YaroMan86 | ArticWolf: I realize I messed up. Without the gnome-panel Alt+F2 won't work. Right click on the desktop, create a launcher, give it any name, with the command gnome=panel | 19:09 |
| iobelix | neeto, yes i do have alsa installed | 19:09 |
| IndyGunFreak | Bits: gutsy is awesome. | 19:09 |
| IndyGunFreak | but hardy is better | 19:09 |
| Bits | IndyGunFreak: how so, in a nutshell? | 19:09 |
| YaroMan86 | Articwolf: ... the gnome panel software is gone? | 19:10 |
| vicky123 | plz tell me | 19:10 |
| matthew_ | Starnestommy, hmm, it is, but I can't get it to work with my sudoers file, any ideas? | 19:10 |
| eracc | vicky123, Red Hat 4 is quite old and no longer supported AFAIK. Time to upgrade. | 19:10 |
| neeto | iobelix: I was having this problem before, I think there is a way to force firefox to use alsa... hold on | 19:10 |
| IndyGunFreak | Bits: mostly in the area of hardware detection.. | 19:10 |
| Bits | IndyGunFreak: have it installed on vbox and not that impressed, all considering | 19:10 |
| Bits | IndyGunFreak: aha, that would explain it ;) | 19:10 |
| IndyGunFreak | Bits: if your hardware is detected well under Gutsy, you won't see much difference, just updated software. | 19:10 |
| vicky123 | then suggest me any other | 19:10 |
| iobelix | neeto, thanks, i was hoping it was a firefox only problem rather than a pulseaudio thing! | 19:10 |
| IndyGunFreak | Bits: but people w/ broadcom wireless devices, several newer atheros devices, etc, will tell yhou hardy is better | 19:11 |
| neeto | iobelix: you are using pulseaudio? | 19:11 |
| Bits | IndyGunFreak: i'm a relatively new linux user, and 1 thing i've learned so far is: if it works, don't fix it. | 19:11 |
| YaroMan86 | ArticWolf: gnome-panel should return your panel to you... but if it can't find it, you might have a bigger problem. | 19:11 |
| IndyGunFreak | Bits: eh, thats just opinion, i like hosing thinsg and fixing it..lol | 19:11 |
| kakalotsai | i install Ubuntu restricted extras,why i can't play mp3 music in ubuntu | 19:11 |
| monkeypaw201 | Dvyjones: is there a quick command to restart apache? or do i need to do it through services? | 19:11 |
| iobelix | neeto, well, i am mostly positive that i am, is there a way to be certain? | 19:11 |
| Bits | IndyGunFreak: i pity your wasted time ;) | 19:11 |
| jpastore | I upgraded to hardy, and my wireless died...I can't figure out how to get it working | 19:11 |
| SWN | If I changed my computer's hostname under System > Admin > Network, changing it under the "hosts" tab, rebooting, then when I pull up a terminal, I noticed it still says <user>@<previous_host_name> instead of the new hostname. Why is this? | 19:11 |
| eracc | vicky123, there is a #fedora channel here. That is the place to ask about Red Hat and Fedora ("free" Red Hat). Any of the modern Linux distributions should support NTFS mounting. | 19:11 |
| xq | kakalotsai: Does normal sound work? | 19:11 |
| YaroMan86 | kakalotsai: It's more reliable to sudo apt-get install gstreamer* | 19:12 |
| jpastore | I tried installing ndiswrapper but I'm not sure I did it correctly | 19:12 |
| kakalotsai | i use Rhythmbox 0.11.2 | 19:12 |
| iobelix | neeto, because it is a hardy install, i thought pulseaudio was defaulted in hardy | 19:12 |
| IndyGunFreak | Bits: its not bad really, i rarely have issues, every so often, i had problems w/ gutsy.. wireless, and intel sound device, which all works perfect under hardy. | 19:12 |
| Dvyjones | monkeypaw201: sudo /usr/sbin/apache2ctl restart | 19:12 |
| danbhfive | monkeypaw201: I can tell you the wrong answer: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart | 19:12 |
| bruenig | linux is linux is linux | 19:12 |
| ArticWolf | Yarakyo ... i got abiword window open titled gnome-launcher.desktop | 19:12 |
| IndyGunFreak | bruenig: so is linux linux? | 19:12 |
| kakalotsai | yes, i my sound card will work | 19:12 |
| monkeypaw201 | jpastore: its easy to install ndiswrapper, just run the installer package :P | 19:12 |
| monkeypaw201 | Dvyjones: thx | 19:12 |
| kakalotsai | yes, i my sound card still work | 19:12 |
| YaroMan86 | kakalotsai: sudo apt-get install gstreamer* will install the correct codecs. | 19:12 |
| grzesiek | I installed ndiswrapper card was recognized but I cant connect ...... I wait on ubuntu 8.10 | 19:13 |
| Surlent | excuse me, but I have one hell of an issue here: I tried to upgrade from gutsy to hardy, and the computer froze while downloading the upgrade, and now everything is rather messed up. Upgrade Manager is of no use, telling me to do a "partial upgrade" and then saying that it can't go from hardy to gutsy (downgrading?), and to top it off, Nautilus seems to be broken, hence my booting into KDE. Any ideas, aside from a total fresh start? | 19:13 |
| matthew_ | anyone know how I could let www-data use sudo netstat -tlp without a password? | 19:13 |
| neeto | iobelix: if it is, I didn't know :/ configuring pulseaudio sucks bigtime | 19:13 |
| Bits | IndyGunFreak: only issue i've had so far is an unkillable flickering on nvidia when compiz is activated (remains even after uninstall of compiz) | 19:13 |
| Dvyjones | The sound from my computer comes from BOTH the speakers plugged in to the motherboard-soundcard, AND the system-speaker inside the computer. How do I disable the computer inside the computer? | 19:13 |
| === Surlent is now known as Surlent777 | ||
| Bits | IndyGunFreak: err not compiz but the settings manager | 19:13 |
| xq | Whoever asked about hostname ---> http://www.cpqlinux.com/hostname.html will help you a lot. ;-) | 19:13 |
| kakalotsai | his package depends on some commonly used packages in the Ubuntu multiverse repository. | 19:13 |
| kakalotsai | Installing this package will pull in support for MP3 playback and decoding, support for various other audio formats (gstreamer plugins), Microsoft fonts, Java runtime environment, Flash plugin, LAME (to create compressed audio files), and DVD playback. | 19:13 |
| kakalotsai | Please note that packages from multiverse are restricted by copyright or legal issues in some countries. See http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/licensing for more information. | 19:13 |
| FloodBot1 | kakalotsai: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 19:13 |
| iobelix | neeto, i still do think though that is a firefox only problem | 19:13 |
| iobelix | neeto, because other apps do not seem to compete for sound | 19:13 |
| IndyGunFreak | Bits: i've heard that issue before.. ive never had it,.. but i've heard about it, i've never had a problem w/ my nvidia devices, since edgy | 19:13 |
| neeto | iobelix: I am looking up the command I used to fix this a while back | 19:13 |
| iobelix | neeto, let me confirm that | 19:13 |
| dabbill | I have been noticing that wine is only useing 1 core of my dual core cpu. Is there any way to make it take use of both cores? | 19:13 |
| jpastore | monkeypaw201, I installed it from sanaptic, but I'm not sure that it's loading...I followed the instructions from a website and I got back the that using the update modules command was deprecated | 19:13 |
| unop | Surlent777, so what does this command give you now? lsb_release -a | 19:14 |
| jpastore | monkeypaw201, how do I check to see if it's running properly? | 19:14 |
| Bits | IndyGunFreak: that's the only (petty) reason i'd have to upgrade at the moment | 19:14 |
| YaroMan86 | kakalotsai: No, seriously, if you sudo apt-get install gstreamer* and restart your system, you'll get working MP3 playback. | 19:14 |
| YaroMan86 | Yaro: This is what I do. | 19:14 |
| kakalotsai | someone help me? | 19:14 |
| hischild | YaroMan86, no need to restart. | 19:14 |
| xq | kakalotsai: Listen to Yaro. | 19:14 |
| kakalotsai | ok | 19:14 |
| neeto | iobelix: try aoss firefox & | 19:14 |
| kakalotsai | thanks | 19:14 |
| monkeypaw201 | jpastore: just do this... remove it from synaptic, download it from their website and run the installer, thats the easiest and most reliable way | 19:14 |
| IndyGunFreak | Bits: see, and thast another thing, i never upgrade, always clean install, i've read enough horror stories here about "Upgrades Gone Wild" | 19:14 |
| YaroMan86 | hischild: I wish I could agree, but a lot of the time some apps won't notice the codecs until you do. | 19:14 |
| Surlent777 | unop: No LSB modules are available. | 19:14 |
| Surlent777 | Distributor ID: Ubuntu | 19:14 |
| Surlent777 | Description: Ubuntu 8.04 | 19:14 |

| Surlent777 | sorry bot | 19:15 |
| Bits | IndyGunFreak: thanks for tip 8) | 19:15 |
| hischild | YaroMan86, any halfdecent app will recognize it. If not, it'll ask you for it. | 19:15 |
| Netham45 | I have NDISwrapper saying that my device is present, and no alternate drivers are being used, can anyone help me as to why it isn't showing up under ifconfig or iwconfig? | 19:15 |
| IndyGunFreak | are people really this dense that they have to post 10-12 lines in a channel w/ 1500 people? | 19:15 |
| YaroMan86 | hischild: Mostly I've had issues with Amarok recognizing it without a restart. No bigiie. | 19:15 |
| iobelix | neeto, yes i just confirmed, it is a firefox only thing. mplayer and rhythmbox do not compete for sound | 19:15 |
| neeto | iobelix: righto, try aoss firefox | 19:15 |
| kakalotsai | i have a trouble | 19:15 |
| iobelix | neeto, ok | 19:15 |
| monkeypaw201 | Dvyjones: ahh, same error | 19:15 |
| unop | Surlent777, try this command twice and post the results to a !pastebin (don't paste in here). sudo aptitude install -f | 19:16 |
| YaroMan86 | kakalotsai: What's wrong? | 19:16 |
| Bits | does hardy come with new socks? | 19:16 |
| jpastore | monkeypaw201, thanks...I might install it all together ...reading my intel card uses a iwl driver and trying to figure out how to get that to work | 19:16 |
| Dvyjones | monkeypaw201: Then i dont know | 19:16 |
| hattrick | why doesn't munin work on ubuntu 8.04? | 19:16 |
| jpastore | I'll fall back to ndis if it fails | 19:16 |
| ghostz | alright I am attempting to install 8.04 i386 desktop using a cd...i have verified the md5 and attempted to run the cd verifier on the installer but both the verification and the installer seems to hang at squashfs...i removed quiet and splash from the install string so I could see where it was getting to | 19:16 |
| * Bits just noticed the smell ;) | 19:16 | |
| neeto | iobelix: tell me if it works | 19:16 |
| kakalotsai | The following packages have unmet dependencies: | 19:16 |
| kakalotsai | gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse: Depends: libmjpegtools0c2a (>= 1:1.8.0) but it is not going to be installed | 19:16 |
| kakalotsai | E: Broken packages | 19:16 |
| SeaPhor | Netham45, i have a nice ndiswrapper checklist and walk-thru if you want? | 19:16 |
| hischild | YaroMan86, so far amarok works fine for me after i play a file in movie player. (double click goes to movie player, then install codec, then back to amarok with it's database) | 19:16 |
| diefordethklok | I'm on the live cd right now, and I have seem to forgotten my admin password on my hard disk, how would I go about changing it? | 19:16 |
| ghostz | any ideas on what could cause it to hang | 19:16 |
| Netham45 | SeaPhor, sure. | 19:16 |
| kakalotsai | Yaro,can you help me? | 19:16 |
| iobelix | neeto, o it sems i do not have alsa-oss installed, if i do install it will it mess up pulseaudio for me you think? | 19:16 |
| YaroMan86 | kakalotsai: sudo apt-get install -f gstreamer* | 19:16 |
| ghostz | i am able to try any suggestions | 19:16 |
| hischild | diefordethklok, there is no admin password, only a user password. | 19:16 |
| Bits | diefordethklok: lol.... try guessing :) | 19:16 |
| IndyGunFreak | YaroMan86: why not just medibuntu to install all th codecs you want? | 19:16 |
| SeaPhor | Netham45, join me in #SeaPhor | 19:16 |
| monkeypaw201 | Dvyjones: ok, now when it restarted apache it said: Could Not Determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.0.1 as ServerName .. could that effect it? | 19:16 |
| diefordethklok | Well my admin user password hischiild. | 19:17 |
| xq | diefordethklok: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/2177 | 19:17 |
| unop | diefordethklok, chroot into the system and issue this command. passwd <user> | 19:17 |
| YaroMan86 | IndyGunFreak: Medibuntu works well, too, yes. Though you don't need it. | 19:17 |
| alex_mayorga | how to manage my contacts on ubuntu? | 19:17 |
| kakalotsai | still have error | 19:17 |
| con-man | how to install rpm? | 19:17 |
| hischild | diefordethklok, chroot in, then use passwd <user> to change it. | 19:17 |
| neeto | iobelix: hopefully not, but if it does, you can switch everything using pulseaudio over to alsa anyway, since that's the more sane way to deal with sound (I hate pulseaudio) | 19:17 |
| IndyGunFreak | YaroMan86: true, you don't, but i always use it to install google earth | 19:17 |
| unop | !alien | con-man | 19:17 |
| ubottu | con-man: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous) | 19:17 |
| kakalotsai | i use ubuntu 7.10 | 19:17 |
| crunchybumble | con-man, use need the redhat package manager | 19:17 |
| hischild | con-man, just don't. | 19:17 |
| Dvyjones | monkeypaw201: No, that is just that the ServerName directive isn't set (which isn't affecting anything unless you run multiple apache servers) | 19:17 |
| YaroMan86 | kakalotsai: Its a little hectic in here. can you PM me? | 19:17 |
| xq | diefordethklok: Or listen to what unop said, but if you require further explanation go to the URL above. | 19:17 |
| iobelix | neeto, ok i am going to try that. thank you very much! | 19:17 |
| kakalotsai | ok | 19:17 |

| ubottu | sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. | 19:18 |
| IndyGunFreak | con-man: what program? | 19:18 |
| crunchybumble | someone shouldb be able to help | 19:18 |
| Dvyjones | monkeypaw201: Mine isn't set, still, it works | 19:18 |
| xq | con-man: What is the RPM of? Why can't you get a source file and install it from source? | 19:18 |
| con-man | IndyGunFreak: VMware-player-2.0.3-80004.i386.rpm | 19:18 |
| unop | kFj_, there is no best .. best is what suits you and accomodates your requirements. | 19:18 |
| Surlent777 | unop: it tells me the following: 0 packages upgraded/newly installed, 17 to remove and 597 not upgraded. Then it tells me that I need to get 0B of archives, and that after unpacking 8729kB will be freed. Do I want to do this? | 19:18 |
| con-man | xq: VMware-player-2.0.3-80004.i386.rpm | 19:18 |

| neeto | ghostz: are you installing from a CD? | 19:19 |
| IndyGunFreak | or install it from the repositories | 19:19 |
| ghostz | crunchybumble, are you saying you can help or not...sorry slightly confused on that | 19:19 |
| monkeypaw201 | Dvyjones: ok, cause it works on the Ubuntu 8 (my desktop) its just the laptop thats ubuntu 6 and doesn't want to work.. | 19:19 |
| unop | Surlent777, well, i wont say yes or no without looking at that paste as it could be dangerous | 19:19 |
| hischild | con-man, they supply a .deb for ubuntu based systems as well. | 19:19 |
| grzesiek | Which Vmware version is ok for ubuntu 8.04 | 19:19 |
| xq | con-man: I believe VMWare even has a .deb file. Ever checked out VirtualBox? :-) Tons of users love it, it's in the repos! Jus search in Repositories. | 19:19 |
| kFj_ | iknow that. but im looking for user opinions.. as to what mostppl are using etc? | 19:19 |
| IndyGunFreak | grzesiek: whichever one is in the repos | 19:19 |

| kakalotsai | next login i will see them | 19:20 |
| kakalotsai | ? | 19:20 |
| xq | SWN: Use that, don't use your GUI ;-p | 19:20 |

| xq | diefordethklok: No problemo. Have fun. | 19:21 |
| Phenax | What's a good tool to turn ogg vorbis to just a 'standard' avi or mpeg? | 19:21 |
| monkeypaw201 | how do you register on here? | 19:21 |
| neeto | ghostz: when you boot into the livecd, try this: sudo apt-get cd /dev/cdrom0 or whatever your drive is called in /dev/ | 19:21 |
| SWN | xq: Thanks, I saw that, and I noticed that my /etc/hosts file does have the change. But uname -a still returns the previous hostname. If it's not possible to do with the Network GUI, why is it an option there? | 19:22 |
| jrib | !register > monkeypaw201 (read the private message from ubotu) | 19:22 |
| crunchybumble | farajamo, you can double click from the desktop, or you can use gunzip from the command line | 19:22 |
| ghostz | neeto, before the clarkconnect install that I did as a brief test it was running 7.** server | 19:22 |
| unop | Surlent777, ok, go ahead and say yes for now .. but pay attention to any developments .. if in doubt do ask. | 19:22 |
| neeto | ghostz: err not apt-get, apt-cd | 19:22 |
| farajamo | It says "Archive not supported"... It's off a CD, and it's a 7-zip | 19:22 |
| xq | SWN: Sometimes the GUI doesn't update across the board. Did you restart by chance? | 19:22 |
| ghostz | neeto, I'll try the live cd now...one sec | 19:22 |
| jrib | !7z > farajamo (read the private message from ubotu) | 19:22 |
| neeto | ghostz: alright | 19:22 |
| secleinteer | hi, when i boot up the ubuntu hardy x86 alternate cd on my computer, the keyboard doesn't work - any ideas why? it works fine in the installed copy of gutsy | 19:22 |
| unop | Surlent777, let me know when you have finished here .. there might be more to do. | 19:22 |
| xq | SWN: Did you issue the hostname <new hostname>? | 19:22 |
| diefordethklok | Now, to another question, does a lexmark x9350 work in ubuntu? I have looked on openprinting but I don't see it listed | 19:22 |
| helix | hi, i need help with partition problems... making my ubuntu read only... Could someone help? | 19:22 |
| neeto | secleinteer: can you pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf? | 19:22 |
| xq | SWN: And then check the /etc/hostname file? ;-) Was that correct as well? Then it does require a restart. | 19:23 |
| farajamo | Alright, I'll try. Thanks guys | 19:23 |
| secleinteer | neeto: no, because i can't get past the language selection menu | 19:23 |
| crunchybumble | didiefordethklok , i'd be surprised, if you don't see it | 19:23 |
| Surlent777 | unop: Now I'm back at the command line. Should I run that command again? | 19:23 |
| secleinteer | neeto: or do you mean my xorg.conf in gutsy? | 19:23 |
| crunchybumble | lexmark products, in my experience, are difficult to make work | 19:23 |
| neeto | secleinteer: is it a USB keyboard or a PS2 keyboard? | 19:23 |
| SeaPhor | amenado, hey bro,,, after upgrade thru the update mamnager and configuring the wireless, worked for about 2 hours then lost its settings and couldn't get it back,,, so just now i fresh installed 8.04 and config'd ndis and the if and its working again but don't know how long, we'll see | 19:23 |
| secleinteer | neeto: ps/2 | 19:23 |
| unop | Surlent777, yes | 19:23 |
| crunchybumble | but that's something i'd google or look up on ubuntuforums | 19:23 |
| ghostz | neeto, it seems to be hanging at squashfs again just like the regular installer | 19:23 |
| fde | helix: during boot, as it counts down 3... 2... 1 ... hit a key... then hit 'e' and add 'ro' to the line... then 'b' I think to boot to the system... | 19:23 |
| diefordethklok | :( , I guess I still need windows vista. | 19:23 |
| fnord_ | i ran wubi and i think it had a problem with my preivus grub setup so now its not loading up my buntu image,whats up? what do i edit in grub.1st? to fix this? | 19:24 |
| crunchybumble | diefordethklok, dude, use the money you saved on your OS to get a new printer | 19:24 |
| crunchybumble | :) | 19:24 |
| xq | SWN: Actually don't restart just issue the command /etc/init.d/hostname.sh start | 19:24 |
| helix | fde, on the grub menu you mean? | 19:24 |
| neeto | ghostz: ok, try this in the terminal... sudo apt-cdrom | 19:24 |
| fde | helix: yes. | 19:24 |
| xq | SWN: That will make the change active with no need for your restarting. | 19:24 |
| SWN | xq: I did restart, and like I mentioned it did change /etc/hosts, but I didn't use the hostname command. The /etc/hostname file has the old name tho--why isn't the Network program smart enough to change it to? | 19:24 |
| diefordethklok | I guess I'll look at a cheap hp. | 19:24 |
| ghostz | neeto, from what terminal...i can't get to a terminal | 19:24 |
| Shpook | Is there a program for linux to create thumbnails from images in a batch function? | 19:24 |
| helix | fde, i shall try, and i'll be right back, thanks for your help | 19:24 |
| neeto | ghostz: you are in a livecd no? | 19:24 |
| xq | SWN: I'm not sure, but if you want it changed -- use the hostname <new hostname here> | 19:24 |
| xq | SWN: And then nano /etc/hostname | 19:25 |
| ghostz | neeto, no I can't even get the live cd to boot | 19:25 |
| fde | diefordethklok: HP actually funds a project 'hplip' that supports its printers on Linux, so that's a good choice :) | 19:25 |
| Surlent777 | ghostz: Try Applications > Accessories | 19:25 |
| unop | !hostname | SWN | 19:25 |
| ubottu | SWN: Use hostname <somehostname> to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts . WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. Alternatively, use the gui at system>administration>networking on the "General" tab | 19:25 |
| ghostz | neeto, it hangs in the same place | 19:25 |
| xq | SWN: And just confirm it has updated in that file and issue /etc/init.d/hostname.sh start | 19:25 |
| neeto | ghostz: whoa at sqashfs you say? | 19:25 |
| ghostz | Surlent777, excuse me...i don't have a gui | 19:25 |
| ghostz | neeto, yes at squashfs | 19:25 |
| xq | <bow ubottu> | 19:25 |
| Surlent777 | ghostz: My apologies, just noticed | 19:25 |
| fnord_ | what other distros use wubi? | 19:25 |
| unop | SWN, you must make sure /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts have the right information on the new hostname, or sudo will not function properly | 19:25 |
| ghostz | Surlent777, that's fine...any ideas | 19:25 |
| neeto | ghostz: yikes... what a mess... I'm afraid I don't know what to do from there. sorry mate. | 19:25 |
| dmsuperman | I'm using btnx to map my extra mouse buttons to shortcuts. Almost everything works (tilt, zoom reset, zoom in/out, scroll, normal clicking, etc.) except I have a little bug. I mapped my back/forward mouse buttons to "Alt + Left" and "Alt + Right" respectively, so it will work in firefox | 19:26 |
| diefordethklok | Oh nice, I'll look at newegg. | 19:26 |
| secleinteer | neeto: any ideas? | 19:26 |
| ervis | hi all | 19:26 |
| unop | fnord_, iirc, wubi is an ubuntu complement, not aware of any other distros that use it | 19:26 |
| fde | diefordethklok: you can check out www.openprinting.org also for a database of supported Printers, just to make sure. | 19:26 |
| ghostz | neeto, alright...thanks | 19:26 |
| dmsuperman | Only whenever I hit back/forward it sorta jumps forward, but then it jumps right back to the previous page. so hitting "forward" causes it to go forward, then immediately go back again | 19:26 |
| bazhang | fnord_: the windows UBuntu Installer? | 19:26 |
| ervis | whats the best and stable ircd | 19:26 |
| dmsuperman | I even set btnx to disallow repeating the button, thinking that was it, but to no avail | 19:26 |
| xq | SWN: But to answer your question on the confusion on the GUI - really, I am not sure. :\ | 19:26 |
| diefordethklok | thanks guys, I'll boot back into my hard disk now | 19:27 |
| fde | fnord_: Wubi stands for "Windows UBuntu Installer... the is 'InstLux' which supported more distros, but I think that is OpenSUSE only now too. | 19:27 |
| SWN | xq: OK, but notice even ubottu says I should be able to use the Network program to do it. :( If I have to do it from the command line, OK, but they shouldn't even make it an option in Network if it doesn't modify BOTH files. :) | 19:27 |
| xq | SWN: But the surefire way is listed above for sure. | 19:27 |
| crunchybumble | ? - when I boot from the live CD, neither of my USB mice work. Is this the behaviour I would experience if I installed it. Anyone else had this problem? And what would I need to slipstream onto the disk to make it work? Thoughts? | 19:27 |
| Surlent777 | ghostz: Sorry, I'm still a bit new at this. Try googling it. You'd be suprised what can turn up | 19:27 |
| fnord_ | unop, i relized that i was just wondering if other distros used a similar thing,i have no cdrom and no way to connect to the internet during a net install because my usb modem driver isnt supported yet | 19:27 |
| mynyml | can anyone help with a broadcom card? | 19:27 |
| fnord_ | so i was looking for another way to install via windows | 19:27 |
| ghostz | Surlent777, I have been for 2 days but thanks | 19:27 |
| xq | SWN: I understand. I just wanted to help you change your hostname. I couldn't do anything else. | 19:27 |
| bazhang | fnord_: that would be unetbootin | 19:27 |
| ArticWolf | Yarakyo ... did you mean type ... gnome=panel or gnome-panel ??? | 19:27 |
| fde | !broadcom > mynyml | 19:27 |
| unop | fnord_, see what fde said above | 19:27 |
| fnord_ | bazhang, even if i dont have support for my network card? | 19:28 |
| bazhang | fnord_: this will be a wireless net install? | 19:28 |
| YaroMan86 | ArticWolf: gnome-panel | 19:28 |
| matthew_ | how dangerous would it be to allow www-data sudo access without a password? | 19:28 |
| unop | matthew_, not very advisable :) | 19:28 |
| Surlent777 | unop: Now I'm back at the command line. I ran the command again, and it talks of packages being "kept back"... | 19:28 |
| YaroMan86 | matthew_: Very dangerous. | 19:28 |
| SWN | xq: I know. :) Thanks for the help--I'm just frustrated the GUI doesn't work. In fact since it only changed hosts and not hostname, it may have messed things up. :( | 19:28 |
| crunchybumble | why would you do that matthew? | 19:28 |
| unop | matthew_, any compromise of your webserver could result in your system being compromised | 19:29 |
| matthew_ | Cause I can't seem to let it do only certain commands sudo | 19:29 |
| xq | SWN: Nah, just make sure they match using the other two small commands we've given you in /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname and you're all set | 19:29 |
| unop | Surlent777, alright, now do this. sudo aptitude safe-upgrade | 19:29 |
| xq | SWN: I pretty much assure you nothing will be messed up | 19:29 |
| mynyml | fde: thanks, but i need more details. i installed the proper packages already and it should be working, but it isnt | 19:29 |
| fnord_ | bazhang, no i have no interweb conection outside of windows,my laptop is too old to have a ethernet interface pre-installed so i was looking for a method that dosent use internet or a cd drive | 19:29 |
| fde | matthew_: Why would you want that user to do such things? | 19:29 |
| ArticWolf | YaroMan86 ... how do i get my menu bars back to the desk top using gnome-panel | 19:29 |
| farajamo | I'm trying to unzip a file, but Archive Manager and Ark both say they don't support the file... anyone know why? | 19:30 |
| bazhang | fnord_: does it boot from usb stick? | 19:30 |
| matthew_ | I need www-data to be able to fuser and netstat | 19:30 |

| kasra | Hi , I upgrade to Hardy from Gutsy , I have problems with compiz-manager ya emerald | 19:30 |
| fde | farajamo: What is the extension? | 19:30 |
| farajamo | .7z and .rar | 19:30 |
| YaroMan86 | ArticWolf: gnome-panel is the command that launches your manu bars. It is the way to get them back if, for example, tou kill gnome-panel while it is set to garbeage in sessions. | 19:30 |
| serena | just noticed that my card reader is not working anymore since changing to Hardy | 19:30 |
| unop | farajamo, try this. sudo aptitude install zip unzip p7zip rar unrar and try again | 19:30 |
| crunchybumble | ah... that's not exactly a .zip file is it ;) | 19:30 |
| Surlent777 | unop: It still says a ton of stuff is being kept back, but it will upgrade the human theme | 19:31 |
| farajamo | unop: Trying, one sec | 19:31 |
| fde | Surlent777: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 19:31 |
| unop | Surlent777, ok, complete what you can here and then run this. sudo aptitude update; sudo aptitude dist-upgrade | 19:31 |
| kasra | what should I use for managing compiz in HardyHeron ? | 19:31 |
| ifireball | matthew_: probably as dangerous as it can, you might as well publish the root password on the web page | 19:31 |
| Ragewarp | whenever im on ubuntu for what seems like more than an hour, everything seems to slowly stop working. first youtube videos stop playing then i cant open mozilla anymore then i cant open HTOP to see whas running and then eventually i cant even reboot without going sudo reboot | 19:31 |
| serena | Hardy has messed up more than helped in my case | 19:31 |
| Surlent777 | your command or fde's? | 19:31 |
| daYZman | hi | 19:32 |
| fnord_ | bazhang, if i had a usb stick and upodated my bios it could but not ATM,can unetboot be tweaked to load an iso image or use a local copy of an ubuntu cd instead of conecting to the internets? | 19:32 |
| fde | Surlent777: both will accomplish the same thing... aptitude is better though, I'm just used to getting less arguments against apt-get :) | 19:32 |
| daYZman | can an existing extended partition be resized and moved? | 19:32 |
| serena | actually moving to Hardy has not solved any of the previous issues but has just added two more | 19:32 |
| Surlent777 | also the human-theme upgrade failed | 19:32 |
| serena | kinda disapointing | 19:32 |
| xq | daYZman: Yes | 19:32 |
| andreiutz | can somebody help me installing ipw2200 drivers, frimware, ieee80211 ? I downloaded the latest releases but I don;t know how to compile and install them. | 19:32 |
| unop | Surlent777, i'm not sure what fde recommended and i suggest you follow one person's advice at this point :) no offence fde | 19:32 |
| Surlent777 | heh, k | 19:32 |
| sukuri | For anyone who can help. I've noticed that when I'm running on windows, my processor doesn't get hot, whereas when I'm running on linux, it does. I'm running an HP Pavilion dv9000 with a Intel Centrino Duo. I presume the issue is that, in windows, the processor is throttled down (or some other term) when I'm not using all of it, and run at higher speeds when necessary. I expect that I don't have that ability enabled in linux. If that i | 19:32 |
| Shpook | Does anyone know a batch function(for GIMP or another program) to create thumbnails from full size images? | 19:32 |
| daYZman | xq: right. but when i right click on it in gparted, resize/move isn't available. | 19:32 |
| fde | unop: I said apt-get instead of aptitude as I don't generally believe in pushing personal taste in public... heh | 19:33 |
| xq | daYZman: Is there space to do so? | 19:33 |
| farajamo | It's working now (as far as I can tell), thanks | 19:33 |
| matthew_ | whats wrong with this line in the sudoers file: www-data ALL=NOPASSWD: /bin/fuser /bin/netstat ? It doesn't work... | 19:33 |
| crunchybumble | shpook, that sounds like something custom enough that you could write it | 19:33 |
| pyrak | i just upgraded to hardy and my wifi card driver broke. can someone help me out? | 19:33 |
| xq | daYZman: And only on the same hard drive ;-) | 19:33 |
| bazhang | fnord_: potentially yes but alot more work then just borrowing a friends external cd drive imo | 19:33 |
| Xsss4hell | Ubuntu Hardy | Linux SGC-Atlantis 2.6.24-17-generic | FritzBoxWLAN Stick | Does not work. PLEASE HELP OUT! | 19:33 |

| dmsuperman | I'm using btnx to map my extra mouse buttons to shortcuts. Almost everything works (tilt, zoom reset, zoom in/out, scroll, normal clicking, etc.) except I have a little bug. I mapped my back/forward mouse buttons to "Alt + Left" and "Alt + Right" respectively, so it will work in firefox | 19:33 |
| Surlent777 | unop: Dear God that's a lot of text. Would you mind looking at my output here? | 19:33 |
| dmsuperman | Only whenever I hit back/forward it sorta jumps forward, but then it jumps right back to the previous page. so hitting "forward" causes it to go forward, then immediately go back again | 19:33 |
| dmsuperman | I even set btnx to disallow repeating the button, thinking that was it, but to no avail | 19:33 |

| unop | Surlent777, if you put it in a pastebin sure | 19:34 |
| daYZman | xq: i think the problem is that the swap is mounted | 19:34 |
| bazhang | Xsss4hell: that kernel is not supported | 19:34 |
| matthew_ | cause sudo -u www-data sudo netstat -tlp still asks for the www-data sudo password | 19:34 |

| hattrick | munin ubuntu 8.04 not working? | 19:34 |
| fde | helix: does 'cat /etc/mtab' say it's mounted read only? | 19:34 |
| daYZman | xq is "swapoff" to unmount the swap partition? | 19:34 |
| xq | daYZman: If they are mounted that is also a problem. I do not believe they can be mounted and *moved* | 19:34 |
| YaroMan86 | Artic-Wolf: Something is very wrong. | 19:34 |
| RAdams | Hey all. Trying to share a folder in Hardy by right-clicking, selecting share, but when I select all 3 checkboxes, I get a net usershare error 255: cannot open usershare directory /var/lib/usershares. My user is in the sambashares group, what's wrong here? | 19:34 |
| Shpook | crunchybumble: I'm assuming it would be done in python? I was hoping for something immediate, but I don't mind learning and writing something if need be. | 19:34 |
| Xsss4hell | then how about Ubuntu Hardy | Linux SGC-Atlantis 2.6.24-16-generic ?? | 19:34 |
| helix | fde, where can Ifind this? | 19:34 |
| Xsss4hell | I have both! as you should know.. | 19:34 |
| fde | helix: Type what I just told you. | 19:34 |
| fnord_ | bazhang,would i need programing skills to modify if or do you think it would be something easily editable in a config file or whatnot | 19:35 |
| xq | daYZman: Resizing requires the proper amount of hard disk space be available, moving is going to require proper space and/or the partition be unmounted (for access/file system reasons) | 19:35 |
| ArticWolf | YaroMan86 ... ok ... what should i do??? reload ubuntu 8.04 again?? or?? | 19:35 |
| YaroMan86 | You might have to. | 19:35 |
| unop | matthew_, well, you are getting www-data to issue a sudo command there, quite obviously a password will still be prompted for | 19:35 |
| Surlent777 | unop: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10034/ | 19:35 |
| IndyGunFreak | daYZman: it'll [robably be easiest to use a live cd to do what you're wanting to d. | 19:35 |
| xq | daYZman: That should do it. Make sure you have enough memory (but most people do and it's not an issue). Are you just trying to move your swap partition to be before your root partition and/or make it smaller or larger? | 19:35 |
| bazhang | fnord_: you would need to point it to a local mirror--unetbootin requires a source-->and if you are going to be using a cd where would that be? | 19:35 |
| hattrick | Munin not working on ubuntu 8.04? | 19:36 |
| YaroMan86 | ArticWolf: I would say as a last resort. Ask others on the channel. :) | 19:36 |
| helix | fde, so when i type 'e', i have 3 choices, boot(0,7), kernel, another line, and quiet, should I add 'ro' (without quotes) to the kernel line even though there already is ro? | 19:36 |

| matthew_ | unop: But my sudoers line is: www-data ALL=NOPASSWD: /bin/fuser /bin/netstat | 19:36 |
| ifireball | matthew_: 1. commands should be comman-seperated; 2. /etc/sudoers should include the parameters as well | 19:36 |
| xq | daYZman: I agre with Indy. Boot from a Live CD. That way nothing will be interferring and it will be on your live file system :) It will be the easiest method. | 19:36 |
| sukuri | What is the name of the function of a processor where it throttles itself down to save power when it doesn't need to be running at full speed? | 19:36 |
| ifireball | matthew_: 1. commands should be comma-seperated; 2. /etc/sudoers should include the parameters as well | 19:36 |
| daYZman | IndyGunFreak: i'm already using the live cd though. it seems to mount the swap. | 19:36 |
| ArticWolf | YaroMan86 ... ok thanks ... whats the best thing to ask ?? | 19:36 |
| fde | helix: no... please 'cat /etc/mtab' and tell me whether the root partition is already read only. | 19:36 |
| Signil | hi.. | 19:36 |
| IndyGunFreak | daYZman: then unmount it. | 19:36 |

| danya | hello .. can I ask a Q please .. why do I need Phyton for ? | 19:38 |
| bazhang | Xsss4hell: what is the chipset of that | 19:38 |
| Ubuntong | sukuri: You can add it as an applet on the gnome Panel. It's already there. | 19:38 |
| xq | danya: For programs that use Python ;) | 19:38 |
| RAdams | danya: it's a programming language and framework for many applications | 19:38 |
| Surlent777 | danya: Python is some sort of programming language, and I guess some programs go through it for things | 19:38 |
| unop | matthew_, first i'd seriously reconsider you rethink the design of this, there might be better ways to get around your problems but if you insist ... log on as www-data via sudo -u www-data -s and then attempt a sudo command. | 19:38 |
| Xsss4hell | bazhang where do I know the chipset? | 19:38 |
| sukuri | Ubuntong: really? Is it enabled before the applet is on the gnome-panel? | 19:39 |

| qman__ | that doesn't show up like that in system monitor | 19:41 |
| unop | Surlent777, well, from experience, any problems with upgrading usually stem from apt not having the right package lists .. either they werent downloaded or weren't downloadedd properly.. so even if one package fails to download and install, any packages that depend on it fail too | 19:41 |
| RAdams | manicola: mdemocritus: are you using software RAID configs? | 19:41 |

| mDemocritus | manicola: lol pastebin it then | 19:44 |
| Netham45 | hmm | 19:44 |
| unop | Surlent777, a clean install is never fun, you waste time trying to get the system back into a usuable state installing and configuring packages and settings .. yw | 19:44 |

| morgan555 | Surlent777 no I don't | 19:46 |
| iobelix | neeto, if you're still around i fixed the pulseaudio problem i had by installing libflashsupport and creating a default /etc/asound.conf file-- everything seems to work now, and youtube has not crashed yet on firefox..we'll see how well this lasts ;) | 19:46 |
| helix | fde, returns mount rw but remound ro if errors | 19:47 |
| Surlent777 | morgan555: I take it you tried the screen resolution tool under System > Preferences? | 19:47 |

| jrib | eboyjr: pop up where? in the notification area? | 19:48 |
| SeaPhor | Netham45, did you check here? http://linux-wless.passys.nl/ | 19:48 |
| bazhang | Xsss4hell: that site says you have to either: 1)compile the source yourself and insert the module, or 2) use ndiswrapper to do it-->no listing for Hardy though | 19:48 |
| mDemocritus | manicola: i thought you were using ata (ide) at first | 19:48 |
| Xsss4hell | bazhang I tried both without any success | 19:49 |
| spblat | "is there a known issue with Hardy where after you log in you only get the login screen again? this is happening in livecd mode and after install" shall I take silence as "no"? my nine year old is experiencing Hardy pain! :-( | 19:49 |

| qman__ | yeah, it was compiz alright, switched it off and freed up 742MB of RAM | 19:49 |
| morgan555 | Surlent777 if I go into screen resolution I dont see a resolution tool, I only have two options, this is a fresh install on this computer but when I did the upgrade from 7.10 i remeber seeing the tool somewhere, now I dont have it | 19:49 |
| paulcross | Netham45, any way. My solution is disable it first. Try this:"sudo gedit /etc/defaultÏÂlinux-restricted-modules-common " change DISABLED_MODULES="" to DISABLED_MODULES="ath_hal" | 19:49 |
| helix | fde, still there? | 19:49 |

| SeaPhor | Netham45, and you had no errors in any of the steps? | 19:54 |

| Xsss4hell | I know, that it works with gutsy.. that's why I thought it should work even better with hardy..but NOO | 19:55 |
| Netham45 | SeaPhor, it's something card-specific | 19:55 |
| joely | whats the fix for mp3 support in Hardy? (already tried gstreamer plugins) | 19:55 |
| Xsss4hell | damn I'm really disappointed | 19:56 |

| Surlent777 | ...hm. Perhaps someone ought to suggest to the Ubuntu team to try putting in a "Downgrade" option, just in case. | 19:56 |
| RequinB4 | can someone help me with what appears to be some shell script syntax? http://paste.ubuntu.com/10037/ | 19:56 |
| SeaPhor | Netham45, what card/and chipset do you have? | 19:56 |
| Zyrando | where can I look up the chipset? | 19:56 |
| Netham45 | SeaPhor, Netgear wn511b card, and I'm not sure about the chipset. | 19:56 |
| brakkvatn | Why can not I sudo any more? | 19:57 |
| Xsss4hell | didn't any of the developers ever tried to correct that problem? man if they code something that does work. why remove it in a newer version?? | 19:57 |
| Surlent777 | morgan555: If you have it, you should be able to get to it by pressing Alt-F2 and then typing "nvidia-settings", without the quotes | 19:57 |
| mDemocritus | manicola: what error do you get when you try sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /path/to/mountpoint | 19:57 |

| wizz1 | jrib, i got SDL | 19:58 |
| mac__ | via 3500 mobo + via unichrome on board video | 19:58 |
| mDemocritus | manicola: you ran it with sudo, right? | 19:58 |
| jrib | wizz1: you have the -dev package for it? | 19:58 |
| RequinB4 | can someone help me with what appears to be some shell script syntax? http://paste.ubuntu.com/10037/ | 19:58 |

| mDemocritus | zedster_ are you using totem? | 19:59 |
| morgan555 | Surlent777 it won't actually open that program | 19:59 |
| wizz1 | jrib, no errors | 19:59 |
| RequinB4 | can someone help me with what appears to be some shell script syntax? http://paste.ubuntu.com/10037/ | 19:59 |
| manicola | mDemocritus: um, i did the first time /mnt/sdb1 | 19:59 |
| jrib | wizz1: that command just searches, it doesn't tell you anything about whether they are installed | 20:00 |
| zedster_ | mDemocritus: its across the board, totem, mplayer, all of them | 20:00 |
| Surlent777 | morgan555: I guess you don't have it then... | 20:00 |
| morgan555 | Surlent777 I am going to s ee if its in synaptic | 20:00 |

| Surlent777 | morgan555: Never tried that. Good idea. | 20:00 |
| mDemocritus | zedster_ ouch... try messing with the color settings in totem | 20:00 |
| bronzodriace | can anyone tell me, if it is worth it to install ubuntu x64, rather than x86?...thanks | 20:00 |
| wizz1 | jrib, so what should i do now ? | 20:00 |
| jrib | wizz1: install the -dev package you need | 20:00 |
| ldiamond | I managed to make a bootable USB Hard Drive with ubuntu, however, it boots on my laptop and not my PC. On my PC, it simply launches Grub's command line. Why? | 20:00 |
| mDemocritus | zedster_ other than that i've got nothin... try google | 20:00 |
| jrib | wizz1: that command gave you some likely candidates | 20:00 |
| rogue_trader | my desktop freezes every few days. that is extremely annoying since it is equivalent of a system crash. even more annoying is that it happened a few minutes ago when my girlfriend tried linux for the first time, (I use ubuntu 8.04 on a samsung r41 collin, latest updates installed) | 20:00 |
| mac__ | tried hacking around xorg.conf - but one look at that file makes me shdder as it's missing lots of what i "thinK" should be there... | 20:00 |

| bullgard4 | What does Tracker do when I run Tracker with the option "Perform fast index merges"? | 20:01 |
| mDemocritus | zedster_ np same thing happened to me :D | 20:01 |
| Surlent777 | rogue_trader: Well, our Ubuntu computer at school did the same thing, but when we turned off the Compiz stuff, it stopped. Something about the video card overheating, I think. | 20:02 |
| wittke | rogue_trader: Im having this for more than 5 month 3 times | 20:02 |
| manicola | mDemocritus: OK, i borked the command mount - didn't put a path to mount after the /dev/sdb1 | 20:02 |

| manicola | mDemocritus: now it's mounted looks like, but still doesn't appear on the desk - you were right :) | 20:02 |
| mDemocritus | manicola: did it mount this time? | 20:02 |
| rogue_trader | how do i turn off compiz Surlent777 ? under appearance / effects? | 20:02 |
| amikrop | I mean, I can't change layout after each new boot if I don't re-set the "change layout key combination". | 20:02 |
| Tom47 | amikrop is the livecd been removed? | 20:02 |
| Surlent777 | rouge_trader: Yeah, switch it to None | 20:03 |
| mDemocritus | manicola: ok now you probably have to double check the permissions: ls -ld /path/to/mountpoint | 20:03 |
| manicola | mDemocritus: well, i thought it was supposed to automount - it has in the previous 6 times I've attempted to install ubuntu | 20:03 |
| amikrop | Tom47: I have hardy installed on my pc. | 20:03 |
| Surlent777 | rouge_trader: If that doesn't help, I have no idea | 20:03 |
| rogue_trader | Surlent777, thx I'll try | 20:03 |

| bronzodriace | jrib 2gb | 20:03 |
| Surlent777 | morgan555: To find it quicker, try just clicking on a package and then typing "nvida-settings" and se--ok then download it | 20:03 |
| jrib | bronzodriace: then no | 20:04 |
| rogue_trader | Surlent777, I will have a try and see if the desktop crashes again | 20:04 |
| manicola | mDemocritus: oh cause it wasn't there when I installed? | 20:04 |
| rogue_trader | I had set the efefcts to medium | 20:04 |
| bronzodriace | jrib so there is no perfomance gain, like in winx64 vs winxp 32 | 20:04 |
| xaziva | So im back | 20:04 |
| mDemocritus | manicola: probably, or the user id was different on the previous system you used it with | 20:04 |

| mDemocritus | manicola: but i think there's an automated way to do that... i'm just not sure | 20:06 |
| IndyGunFreak | ldiamond: so you either live w/o, or use a series of hacks trying to make 32bit work on 64bit, which is a pain, thus why i'll stick w/ 32bit for the forseeable future | 20:06 |
| mDemocritus | manicola: perhaps gparted? | 20:06 |

| luka` | Hello! I have a question: my upgrade from 7.10 to 8.04 crashed somewhere in the middle (installing new packets). so after reboot i ran dpkg --configure -a and after that apt-get dist-upgrade. now everything seems ok, so i'm wanna ask if there is anything else i should do? | 20:31 |
| xq | eboyjr: Maybe commandhere > file.txt | 20:31 |
| luka` | -'m | 20:32 |
| sebsebseb | luka: if it works it works | 20:32 |
| lnxnt_ | no idea? | 20:32 |
| eboyjr | xq, It doesnt work if file.txt doesnt exist | 20:32 |
| xq | eboyjr: That will output the command's "output" to the file for rading later | 20:32 |
| lnxnt_ | im on ubuntu 6.06 | 20:32 |
| xq | eboyjr: Then touch file.txt | 20:32 |
| Dr_Link | Now set the new partition type as "ext3", farool. You should also set the size to be xxx megabytes. | 20:32 |
| xq | eboyjr: That will create the file before executing the command? | 20:32 |
| farool | Dr_Link: Sorry, I should have said this before. I want to delete every trace of XP off of the computer. I don't want any of my old files or anything. Can I just delete this? | 20:32 |
| Dr_Link | The partition? | 20:32 |
| Dr_Link | sure. | 20:32 |
| DanaG | Anybody know how to get that thing NOT to trample on my config files? | 20:32 |
| Dr_Link | It won't matter anymore, go ahead and delete all of the partitions. | 20:32 |
| eboyjr | magnetron, Right click the terminal, Edit Current Profile, uncheck use system font, and choose your own | 20:33 |
| DanaG | It's really frickin' annoying having my 3D functionality randomly disabled, and all my touchpad settings completely lost. | 20:33 |
| luka` | sebsebseb, what about old packets, were they removed? coz apt-get dist-upgrade said nothing bout them when i ran it in the end | 20:33 |
| magnetron | eboyjr: which font was used in gutsy? | 20:33 |
| sebsebseb | luka: ah right yeah some stuff it may have wanted to remove, could be left behind, but if so it probably won't cause issues | 20:33 |
| farool | Dr_Link: Create as Extended Partition? | 20:34 |
| cookiemonster077 | can I use a older kernel on hardy | 20:34 |
| sebsebseb | yes you can | 20:34 |
| luka` | sebsebseb, any idea how could i check if they are still there? | 20:34 |

| DanaG | That's evil. Yeah, go trample on ALL my config files, why don't'cha? | 20:35 |

| Dr_Link | xxx meaning some integer worth in megabytes. | 20:38 |
| farool | Dr_Link: Okay, because I want the entire computer to be Ubuntu would it be okay to just set it to 19000, as that's the max size? | 20:38 |

| luka` | sebsebseb, i already ran it and it finished with moving new kernel (and related stuff) to the boot partition. it did say there are 0 packets to be removed, but iirc upgrade tool does remove old packets in the end (or am i mistaken?) | 20:39 |

If "tar" insisted on using that first "/" it would overwrite your new /home everytime you'd mess with it.

| thunderbolt | Masashi: Which image did you get? if you got the one thats 700 MB, write to a CD, if it's bigger, write to a DVD :) | 22:13 |
| laeg | usser: yes | 22:13 |
| SWN | soundray, thunderbolt: It looks like libsdl1.2-dev is the main package which I all ready have installed. There is also more specialized packages, e.g. libsdl-console-dev, libsdl-gfx1.2-dev, etc. How in the world can I figure out which ones I need? :) | 22:13 |
| Masashi | Alright, thanks! | 22:13 |
| RequinB4 | damntourists - i agree. I'd do a search on ubuntuforums.org if you want the latest progress | 22:13 |

| soundray | gerardoj: I suggest you boot from it, then run 'sudo e2fsck -y /dev/sda9' (replacing your device name of course). After that, it should boot normally from HD. | 22:16 |

| RequinB4 | Masashi: Yes, Running off the CD will be a lot slower | 22:44 |
| mDemocritus | Masashi: like how slow? | 22:44 |
| saxsux | Masashi: It will be slower than runnung from your hard drive, but shouldn't be too slow. | 22:44 |

| Surlent777 | unop: Yeah, it's a start, but I was hoping to finish it; here's the output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10091/ | 22:44 |
| soundray | adilson: if it happens again with a new user, then the problem is system-wide -- I would then recommend a reinstall. If it doesn't then the problem is in the config of your original user, and you will be able to fix it by resetting the config (rm -rf ~/.gnome* ~/.gconf*' | 22:44 |

| adilson | soundray: will try sudo adduser test | 22:45 |
| con-man | omg | 22:45 |
| con-man | this is retarded | 22:45 |
| mDemocritus | Masashi: since it has to extract everything, it's gonna take a while, if you're on old hardware, it might be worth it to install with the alternate cd | 22:46 |
| soundray | adilson: and, no, there is no way to tell whether it has worked without logging out and quitting irssi | 22:46 |
| adilson | saxsux: yup it dont work same result only failsafe terminal works which gives irssi | 22:46 |
| Surlent777 | unop: I ran that last command because Update Manager told me to | 22:46 |

| con-man | Jack_Sparrow: heard you the first time, I will, I promise | 22:47 |
| con-man | Jack_Sparrow: just a little frustrated | 22:47 |
| luser_ | _derspankster: Movie Player is able to use the system smb:// mount but i have found that only some programs to do this. pyNeighborhood uses SMBFS to make the share appear like a regular file, so then it should work no matter what program you are using | 22:47 |
| Surlent777 | unop: That first command made Kicker restart itself. Is that bad? | 22:47 |

| Surlent777 | unop: OK, Kicker restarted again, but it didn't give me any error messages | 22:53 |
| soundray | test_: yes, you can | 22:53 |
| amirman84 | gatekeeper: all i did was go to system>administartion>software sources and enable 3rd party packages as well as proposed and backports, then it asks you to update something, say yes, then it finds the driver automatically | 22:53 |
| Surlent777 | unop: Time to try that other command... | 22:53 |
| Anja7 | ok i did what it told me to do, the *sudo aptitude install linux-ubuntu-modules-'uname -r', and it says "couldn't find any package whose name or description matched" ? | 22:53 |

| amirman84 | gatekeepr: i thought i had to deal with all that crap and i didn't at all | 22:53 |

| JohnPhys | Stevethepirate: are you using the "nv" driver, or the "nvidia" driver? | 22:54 |
| Anja7 | ok thanks soundray will try that | 22:54 |
| test_ | soundray: is the star supposed to be there or you just added that by mistake? | 22:54 |
| unop | Surlent777, try and not use update manager for now as it's hard to troubleshoot if it fails .. use apt-get/aptitude instead | 22:54 |

| soundray | test_: okay. Log in as micheal on the text console (Ctrl-Alt-F2). Then do a 'cd /home'. Switch back here for further instructions. | 23:10 |

| JohnPhys | helix: I think you can just type "free" at a prompt, and it should tell you the total swap available | 23:10 |
| con-man | sc006: yeah same boat | 23:10 |
| helix | choudesh, my swap is 4gb or 2gb im not sure... i think it is 4 since ive been suggested to use a multiple of my ram | 23:10 |

| con-man | sc006: defaulting even | 23:11 |
| test_ | soundray: done | 23:11 |
| gatekeeper | amirman84: done and updated but still nothing in hardware drivers | 23:11 |
| unop | luser_, you can't create a hardlink directory .. and it's easier to bind-mount ~/www into /var/www instead .. might be safer too | 23:11 |
| soundray | test_: did it return to the $ prompt? | 23:11 |
| thiebaude | Which directory is Totem in? | 23:11 |
| amirman84 | gatekeeper: do you have NDISwrapper or anything like that installed? | 23:11 |
| choudesh | helix, open terminal - type, `free -m` and tell me what your values are under swap | 23:11 |
| saxsux | orehon: You're welcome. Sorry I could help more. | 23:11 |
| test_ | soundray: yup | 23:11 |
| unop | Surlent777, err, well, just let it do it's job | 23:11 |
| helix | JohnPhys, do you know exactly how to automount a partition? the new hardy doesnt automount my shared fat32 partition that i use between ubuntu and windows | 23:11 |

| helix | choudesh, ok thanks ;) | 23:11 |
| gatekeeper | amirman84: im just diving in ehadfirst to try to get it running | 23:11 |
| Surlent777 | unop: Of course, I'm just easily amused when under stress and/or bored | 23:12 |
| amirman84 | gatekeeper: well i only have about a weeks experience so i understand | 23:12 |
| con-man | sc006: I will never touch virtualbox again | 23:12 |
| choudesh | helix, also `sysctl vm.swappiness` and tell me what your swapiness is | 23:12 |
| gatekeeper | amirman84: how would I know if I ahve ndiswrapper installed? | 23:12 |
| Frotos | does nobody care to monitor there internet traffic? | 23:12 |
| sc006 | con-man:install envyng-gtk it may help you to configure it | 23:12 |

| helix | choudesh, well i am on windows right now since the wireless has also been broken on my hardy... | 23:12 |
| sc006 | con-man:why | 23:12 |

| narothepharoh | #Kubuntu | 23:13 |
| usser | yell0w, no problem | 23:13 |
| choudesh | helix, ight. | 23:13 |
| unop | snake_, change the document root or mount ~/www into /var/www | 23:13 |
| sc006 | con-man:starnge never had a prob with vbox | 23:13 |
| amirman84 | gatekeeper: if you installed anything to get your wireless to work previously you should remove it, if you installed something named "windows wireless drivers" from the add/remove programs thing then go back to that and uninstall it by unchecking it | 23:13 |
| Mudassar | headphones volume is so low in ubuntu | 23:13 |
| snake_ | unop tell me again please where to change my root ? | 23:13 |
| Frotos | Well I would like to be able to monitor my traffic, and so I'm here ask how I can do that on 8.04 | 23:13 |
| JohnPhys | helix: you should be able to put it in your fstab and it will automount | 23:13 |
| luser_ | unop: what would the mount command be? | 23:13 |
| choudesh | Mudassar, open terminal - type `alsamixer` max sure all values are max | 23:13 |
| unop | snake_, /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/* | 23:13 |
| FrozenFire | RAdams, That doesn't seem to be the issue. | 23:14 |
| narothepharoh | how do i open a .package file in 8.04? | 23:14 |
| helix | JohnPhys, yes indeed but I do not know the parameters and correct syntax, i dont know what nosuid and stuff like that is... | 23:14 |
| sc006 | con-man:envy has work for me in the past but it installs the driver form nvidia web page | 23:14 |
| test_ | soundray: I think i'll just clean install hardy and lose what i have at the moment, its not like i cant recover it and the music is else where sorry to have been a pain | 23:14 |
| unop | luser_, sudo mount --bind ~/www /var/www (but i recommend against it and suggest a change for documentroot instead) | 23:14 |
| FrozenFire | It seems that it cannot find the samba sharing gui application | 23:14 |
| JohnPhys | helix: ok, let me look around my system a bit | 23:14 |
| amirman84 | gatekeeper: what i did was install ubuntu inside windows with the Wubi installer that's on the disc, then i tried to see if i could my hardware to work, then when it worked great, i installe for real | 23:14 |
| helix | JohnPhys, i only have basic knowledge of the ubuntu structure and commands, but it gets complex at this point.. | 23:14 |
| Cain_nod | What apps du u use for Torrent? :D | 23:14 |
| luser_ | unop: hmm ok i don't know what is the best method | 23:14 |
| soundray | test_: your choice, but we're only a few keystrokes away from the switch now... | 23:14 |
| test_ | soundray: I dont want my account to be name test and what if the same happens but ok i'll continue | 23:15 |
| Masashi | I'm stuck on the screen where we must input the username and password that we wish to use, for some reason, when I click the textbox, nothing happens. | 23:15 |
| unop | snake_, luser_, well, the default virtual host sets documentroot up for /var/www .. all you have to do is change that to reflect the new location .. that's recommended | 23:15 |
| amirman84 | test_: giving up and reinstalling from scratch is the windows way, in linux you can fix stuff | 23:15 |
| bobstro | Fresh hardy server install, all worked well at start. Today, I get "failed to fetch... can not resolve" messages back from apt. DNS works fine on same host (verified using host <name>) and identical sources.list on another box works OK today too. Any ideas? | 23:16 |

| con-man | sc006: yeah I tried replacing it | 23:24 |
| oc80z | thiebaude yes | 23:24 |

| godlygeek | termagant: uh.. no idea how to install linux on a powerpc mac - though i'm running ubuntu on an intel mac | 23:25 |
| luser_ | snake_: check out http://www.faqs.org/docs/securing/chap29sec245.html | 23:25 |

| bobstro | Romanian: if you open the alsa mixer and move the various channels, does it affect volume? can you find one in mixer that works? | 23:34 |
| crimsun | xbj9000: because PulseAudio is configured to use hw:* by default in 8.04. You need to either change the default PA config (/etc/pulse/default.pa) to use dmix & dsnoop, or you need to use pasuspender -- someapp. | 23:34 |

| soundray | fiyawerx: is it a folder or a filesystem image file? (It amounts to the same as far as corruption is concerned, I know) | 23:55 |

| Starnestommy | steph291: use sudo when you need root powers | 23:56 |
| JohnPhys | Surlent777: I'm not sure, though you could be right. I'm not sure how what exactly is handling the read/writes on the ubuntu "file" on the ntfs system | 23:56 |
| steph291 | "sudo su" ? | 23:56 |
| sc006 | con-man- well thats good | 23:57 |

| reportingsjr | soundray: That will allow me to dual boot, and not write over this OS, correct? | 23:57 |
| Starnestommy | steph291: -i, not su | 23:57 |
| mushroomsven | david__: then just turn off different features w/ it until you don't notice any crashes. | 23:57 |
| Ahadiel | ouellettesr, Not sure then. | 23:57 |
| con-man | sc006: all I will really have to do install google earth and banshee and wine | 23:57 |
| soundray | reportingsjr: yes | 23:57 |
| ouellettesr | what is gtk-gnash? | 23:57 |

| Heston | hello, why is it that ubuntu hardy now tries to access ram that isnt normally available through the bios? In my case, I have an older board where a larger stick of ram is only detected at half its size, which is fine, but ubuntu is trying to use it all | 23:58 |
| david__-- | mushroomsven:ok,I have a feeling it has to do with the desktop cube | 23:58 |
| LaneLimited | I added the notification area.... but i think i know how to get it to work... Thanks man | 23:58 |
| Heston | which is resulting in the installation crashing | 23:58 |
