| soundray | markotitel: why don't you just say what the problem is | 00:01 |
| hyjal | douye: yes, that's probably because you have installed some of the codec packages that ubuntu-restricted-extras depend on. Ubuntu-restricted-extras depend on a bunch of different codecs so that it's easy to install them all. you don't *need* to do it that way, though ;) | 00:01 |

| BobPenguin | Thanks a lo soundray. The only app that has issues with sound is Lives Video Editor, but I will follow your advice anyway | 00:02 |
| thisusernamewasm | douye- "ubuntu-restricted-extras" is a 'metapackage', as stated before- that means it simple tells your computer to download a bunch of other packages, it isn't actually a package in and of itself. | 00:02 |
| XORAND | belkinhelp2: i have, but now my resolution is lower | 00:02 |

| Slart | J-Unit: kill works if you know the process id.. ie "kill 22944" .. pkill kills all processes that match the regexp you supply.. so "pkill fire" will kill all firefox processess and also any other processes starting with fire | 00:07 |

| jnb | soundray, can you tell me what's wrong with this? sudo rm -d directoryname | 00:27 |
| astro76 | jnb: rm -r directory, to delete a directory and it's contents | 00:27 |
| nikin | job: empty directory? | 00:27 |
| nikin | jnb | 00:28 |
| soundray | jnb: I'm not sure -- I always do as astro76 says | 00:28 |
| Vaden | someone wanna help me | 00:28 |
| jnb | astro76, so -d only deletes empty directories? thanks :) | 00:28 |

| DonaldShimoda | markotitel, just dont work... | 00:29 |
| nikin | but be carefull it will delete without asking | 00:29 |
| DonaldShimoda | Vaden, use lubi | 00:29 |
| DonaldShimoda | wubi i mind | 00:29 |

| Vaden | lubi? | 00:29 |

| ironfoot_495 | Hello is there someon e who can tell me why I'm getting a binary code instead of php? | 00:30 |
| Vaden | i installed ubuntu.. inside windows feature... | 00:30 |
| soundray | Vaden: wubi is a means of installing Ubuntu inside a Windows partition for dualbooting. Not what you want. | 00:30 |
| DonaldShimoda | markotitel, my friend , still dont work, can you please help me? | 00:30 |
| Vaden | and when i went to boot up ubuntu | 00:30 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Vaden It is still dual booting.. it will not run like a program inside windows.. | 00:30 |
| ironfoot_495 | writing in php a PNG | 00:30 |
| Vaden | it comes up with this busy thing | 00:30 |
| soundray | Vaden: look for pre-prepared downloadable virtual machines for vmware. | 00:30 |
| Vaden | should i install a fresh copy.. on another hard drive? | 00:31 |
| nikin | can anyone help me to use policykit with fluxbox... for some reason it ails the get process information... so the unlock bttons stay grey... and after tripple check... i am in the polkituser group., and i am not running with sudo .... or at least how to rip out that piece of awfullness(sorry) of the admn programs? | 00:31 |
| bazhang | Vaden, if you get the busybox shell it likely means it is not finding a hard drive to boot from; in which case you need to find it and mount it | 00:32 |
| soundray | Vaden: go to the vmware site and look for the Ubuntu 8.04 Desktop virtual appliance. | 00:32 |

| Vaden | how do i make it find the hard drive and then mount it? | 00:33 |
| Vaden | no.. i used Wubi | 00:33 |
| bazhang | vaden a dual boot will be faster than wubi most likely; if you get the ubuntu live cd the installer will do all the work for you | 00:33 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Vaden read the wubi faq | 00:33 |
| Vaden | Soundray.. i used wubi.. never said anything about vmware | 00:33 |
| Vaden | lol i can't find the Wubi faq | 00:33 |
| Vaden | okay i downloaded the 700mb desktop version of ubuntu.. that has live cd right? | 00:34 |
| cheatr | Vaden: Yeah, it has the live cd | 00:34 |
| Vaden | mkay | 00:34 |
| bazhang | Vaden, if it is not the alt cd then yes | 00:34 |

| Vaden | thats y i wanna do the wubi | 00:36 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Vaden it is the best way to do it, whether or not you like to do it that way | 00:37 |
| TheNerdGotchU | by mistake i deleted the panel that hold my minimized programs anyone know how to fix this? I tried add new panel but the programs wont minimize to the panel | 00:37 |

| Vaden | i'm using a USB Enclosure for my 20gb hard drive... can i install it on there.. and do a boot for that drive? by hitting f12 to select my boot device? | 00:38 |
| soundray | TheNerdGotchU: you need to add the Window List applet to the new panel | 00:38 |
| bazhang | vaden then mount the hard drive from the busybox shell and go to it-->will be a bit slower than a regular install though | 00:38 |
| ratpoison | TheNerdGotchU, go to a panel, right click and add "Notification Area" | 00:38 |
| Jack_Sparrow | TheNerdGotchU You need to click the panel and add to the panel the app switcher or something like that | 00:38 |
| Vaden | were is the faq for wubi.. cause i'm not sure how to mount the hard drive | 00:38 |
| soundray | ratpoison: not Notification Area ( TheNerdGotchU) | 00:38 |
| paulcross | Do ubuntu have the OPENSSL security problem? Could it be fixed by "apt-get upgrade"? | 00:38 |
| Vaden | i can't find it on the site | 00:38 |
| ratpoison | oh, yeah sorry | 00:38 |
| hisingh1 | Guess what, | 00:38 |
| hisingh1 | if your parents say yes, go to macdonld | 00:38 |
| hisingh1 | they are giving a free sandwich (chicken) if you buy a drink that is medium size. | 00:38 |
| soundray | TheNerdGotchU: it's called Window List applet | 00:38 |
| hisingh1 | sale ends at 7 | 00:38 |
| bazhang | vaden sure you can; though as many have said using the main drive is the best option without question-->nothing scary about partitioning | 00:39 |
| FloodBot2 | hisingh1: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 00:39 |
| mouseboyx | is it normal for data to be written to a usb device after you try to unmount it, then it finishes, then unmounts? | 00:39 |
| kitche | paulcross: it's been fixed already so yes | 00:39 |
| Jack_Sparrow | hisingh1 PLease stop | 00:39 |
| hisingh1 | sorry for of topic just had to say it | 00:39 |

| soothesayer | mouseboyx: yes | 00:39 |
| mouseboyx | can you change it so it writes it before you unmount it? | 00:39 |
| Vaden | when doing wubi u are using the main drive.... | 00:39 |
| Jack_Sparrow | mouseboyx yes | 00:39 |
| TheNerdGotchU | window list applet works just fine | 00:39 |

| soundray | TheNerdGotchU: we are | 00:40 |

| soundray | mouseboyx: or add it to the options in the relevant line in /etc/fstab | 00:43 |
| soundray | mouseboyx: do you want this for a removable device? | 00:43 |
| mouseboyx | ok thanks | 00:43 |
| _paradox_ | favro libjavaplugin_oji.so isnt in /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins does it need to be? | 00:43 |
| favro | _paradox_: you need to name the link - I gave the option of giving it the same name | 00:44 |
| mouseboyx | yes soundray | 00:45 |
| ratpoison | _paradox_, you probably need write preveleges on /usr/lib/mozilla/blah/blah. Try prepending a sudo before the command favro gave you | 00:46 |
| soundray | mouseboyx: then my advice doesn't apply... sorry, don't know how to configure that | 00:46 |

| agamotto_ | vbman: Go into the Songbird dir that it creates in a terminal, type ./configure | 00:59 |
| soundray | mouseboyx: if your usage pattern is 'insert, write data, remove', then sync is better. | 00:59 |

| agamotto_ | vbman: After, the ./configure does it's thing, you do ./make, then ./make install. After that, you should just be able to ALT-F2, and type in songbird | 01:02 |

| hwilde | Flannel, I am trying to do remote port forwarding with the command ssh -N -R from client to server. On the server I can see from netstat that the connection is established and listening on the port. but I cannot login to the port. how could this be that the ssh tunnel is allowed to be created, but I cannot send traffic back over the tunnel? | 01:02 |

| agamotto_ | hisingh1: All commands in IRC are prefixed with / | 01:03 |
| Flannel | Xsploit: Probably yes, it depends on what windows did, you might have more luck in their forum : http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=234 if you can't find anyone here familiar enough with wubi | 01:03 |

| TheNerdGotchU | i mean iso burning program lol | 01:04 |
| agamotto_ | Nerd: You should be ok with the built-in as long as the iso is not bigger than a cd | 01:04 |
| robert__ | i got a question | 01:05 |
| hwilde | TheNerdGotchU, right click on the iso and tell it go to cd burner | 01:05 |
| ratpoison | Thanatos____, plus, try holding middle click above the desktop background | 01:05 |
| Flannel | TheNerdGotchU: Ubuntu has ISO burning software built in, just right click the ISO and you shoud have a "burn" option | 01:05 |

| Flannel | vbman11: probably a good idea to remove it if you've installed it in package management | 01:06 |
| robert__ | do i type that in the terminal? | 01:06 |
| gronne | ust tried Wine, and I've got to say I'm quite impressed, even if shitloads still don't work | 01:06 |
| sandrossv | ¬¬ | 01:06 |

| bazhang | arthur, sure, but very slow | 01:06 |
| hisingh1 | <martianlobste1> you dont need packages for apt-get install | 01:06 |
| starz | does anyone know where i could get a copy of the 6.06.1 iso lts the server one ? | 01:06 |
| sandrossv | Oops | 01:06 |
| starz | they all seem to have been updated to the .2 | 01:06 |
| Xsploit | agamotto_ i can still choose ubuntu and i come to a command line prompt for /. so grub fix mbr is what i need? | 01:06 |
| hisingh1 | <martianlobste1> what is the error message | 01:06 |
| bazhang | gronne language please | 01:06 |
| Flannel | starz: Why do you want .1? | 01:06 |
| starz | i.e. i need a place that keeps older isos | 01:06 |
| hwilde | blackvd, sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart | 01:06 |
| starz | Flannel: special install requires that for the 3ware raid card i'm using unfortunately | 01:06 |
| arthur | can i copy and paste the iso image to the drive or do i need to go another route? | 01:06 |
| favro | starz: it is still at ubuntu.com | 01:07 |
| robert__ | do i type dmesg in the terminal? | 01:07 |
| hwilde | robert__, yes "dmesg" | 01:07 |
| vbman11 | Flannel: K, Thanks! | 01:07 |
| martianlobste1 | hisingh1: No manual entry for gethostname | 01:07 |
| robert__ | thanks | 01:07 |
| gronne | bazhang: sry.. "even if lots does not work".. better? | 01:07 |
| Flannel | starz: Grab the alternate CD, those should still be .1, you can install a command line system from there, and then later switch to the -server kernel if you want | 01:07 |
| tesmar | anybody on monit? | 01:07 |
| ratpoison | martianlobste1, try searching synaptic for gethostname, or google it | 01:07 |
| robert__ | it did a bunch if text in just a split second | 01:07 |
| Xsploit | screw it ill just remove it and reinstall it | 01:07 |
| robert__ | is that a really fast install or is something wrong? | 01:08 |
| agamotto_ | Xsploit: No, you need to search google for grub commands. There is one to 'fix' an MBR that has been changed like your situation. I just don't remember the whole procedure currently | 01:08 |

| starz | Flannel: thats a great idea.. but wont work | 01:08 |
| Xsploit | agamotto_ thanks, ill just reinstall ubuntu instead though | 01:08 |
| starz | it _has_ to be the server kernel | 01:08 |

If I forget the syntax or include files for a function, say printf, then I type "man printf" from the command line, and the man page for printf comes up. But it seems that the man pages for most of the linux / unix api functions are missing. I would like to be able to do "man gethostname" and get the documentation for the C function, gethostname | 01:14 |
| ArrowLance | well they are very large, and i never saw them before i installed ubuntu twice using wubi | 01:14 |
| ethana2 | I keep entering the password and it keeps asking me again | 01:14 |

| ubottu | ubuntu: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 01:24 |
| TheNerdGotchU | anyone know the command to disable and enable my wired network connection | 01:24 |
| TheNerdGotchU | in otha words get off the interenet | 01:24 |
| TheNerdGotchU | with one command | 01:25 |
| TheNerdGotchU | ? | 01:25 |
| RyanPrior | TheNerdGotchU: probably ifdown eth0 | 01:25 |
| RabidWeezle | yep | 01:25 |
| Gantz | how does one boot back into XP from ubuntu? | 01:25 |
| RyanPrior | TheNerdGotchU: or unplug your cable | 01:25 |
| RabidWeezle | sudo ifconfig eth0 down I thought | 01:25 |
| josspyker | TheNerdGotchU: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 01:25 |
| RyanPrior | Gantz: click on the power button in the upper right hand corner and then select Windows XP from the boot list. | 01:25 |
| DragonSpirit | sudo /etc/init.d/networking stop | 01:25 |
| RabidWeezle | that's what I use anyway | 01:25 |
| RabidWeezle | that works too Dragnslcr | 01:25 |
| RabidWeezle | DragonSpirit, | 01:25 |
| RabidWeezle | hehe | 01:25 |
| Gantz | i don't see that option | 01:26 |
| eboyjr | How can I output the result of 2^(8*4) ( or whatever) to append to a file? | 01:26 |
| RyanPrior | Gantz: Did you install using Wubi? | 01:26 |
| TheNerdGotchU | if ifdown kills the connection if up would bring it back up | 01:26 |
| RabidWeezle | Gantz, another way is to click your icon on the top bar for the connection and click disable networking checkmark | 01:26 |
| DragonSpirit | right click | 01:27 |
| Gantz | rabidweezle: to boot into windows...? | 01:27 |
| knirps | hi, my open vpn clients all get the same ip.. does anybody know why ? | 01:27 |
| RyanPrior | eboyjr: echo "2^(8*4)" | bc >> result.txt | 01:27 |
| RabidWeezle | oh | 01:27 |
| RabidWeezle | nevermind | 01:27 |
| RabidWeezle | wrong guy Gantz | 01:27 |
| * agamotto_ waves | 01:27 | |
| DragonSpirit | Gantz, different subject | 01:27 |
| Gantz | ok | 01:27 |
| RabidWeezle | Gantz, to boot to windows you should see an entry for it in your boot sequence (grub) | 01:27 |
| eboyjr | RyanPrior: Thank you so much | 01:27 |
| eboyjr | :D | 01:27 |
| RyanPrior | eboyjr: Enjoy. :-) | 01:28 |
| RabidWeezle | if you installed right | 01:28 |
| RabidWeezle | if you didn't install right, you have taken out windows altogether | 01:28 |
| Gantz | rabid: i installed ubuntu on a sperate harddrive | 01:28 |
| RabidWeezle | ahh | 01:28 |
| RabidWeezle | then you wanna tell grub that the windows drive is there | 01:28 |
| DragonSpirit | Gantz, which hardrive is windows on, the first or second one? | 01:28 |
| RabidWeezle | if there is no menu | 01:28 |
| Lindinhaaaa | oiiiiiiiii | 01:29 |
| RyanPrior | !grub | Gantz | 01:29 |
| ubottu | Gantz: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 01:29 |
| Gantz | can i use that guide backwards then? | 01:29 |
| RyanPrior | Gantz: perhaps. | 01:30 |
| RabidWeezle | are you on sata or ide drives? | 01:30 |
| DragonSpirit | Gantz, which drive is windows on, the first or second? | 01:30 |
| RyanPrior | Gantz: If not, ask Google. | 01:30 |
| Gantz | i'm not sure what you mean by first or second | 01:30 |
| RabidWeezle | google helps alot with grub problems | 01:30 |
| DragonSpirit | the slave or master | 01:30 |
| RyanPrior | DragonSpirit: Linux has no concept of "first" or "second" drive, so why are you asking? | 01:30 |
| Gantz | actually i think they're both master | 01:30 |
| RabidWeezle | wtf? | 01:31 |
| eboyjr | Whats a good file extension for bash scripts? | 01:31 |
| eboyjr | Is it sh? | 01:31 |
| RabidWeezle | jumper the windows drive as slave if you have them both master | 01:31 |
| RyanPrior | eboyjr: .bash | 01:31 |
| josspyker | Gantz: find out where windows live and edit grub | 01:31 |
| josspyker | lives | 01:31 |
| steve007 | !<usb> | 01:31 |
| RabidWeezle | on the same channel that is | 01:31 |
| RabidWeezle | if it's ide that is | 01:31 |
| RabidWeezle | if it's sata that's different I think | 01:31 |
| Gantz | ones sata ones ide | 01:31 |
| RyanPrior | eboyjr: .sh is fine too as long as you make sure to put bash in the crunch bang line. | 01:31 |
| RabidWeezle | ahhh | 01:31 |
| RabidWeezle | I see | 01:31 |
| RabidWeezle | so one will be hda, one will be sda? | 01:32 |

| Gantz | ubuntu is on the older one while xp is on the newer | 01:32 |
| RabidWeezle | there you go | 01:32 |
| * RabidWeezle nods to nakedgoat | 01:32 | |
| tj83 | Freshy.. lspci should give you info | 01:32 |

| CShadowRun | wallpapers suck more. | 01:34 |
| eboyjr | How do iterate $i in a loop from 1 to 20? | 01:34 |
| eboyjr | in bash? | 01:34 |
| RyanPrior | eboyjr: I think perhaps you should join #bash | 01:34 |
| eboyjr | RyanPrior: Okay | 01:34 |
| zzillezz | what should i choose, 32 bit or 64 bit ubuntu (amd64 6000 cpu) | 01:34 |
| soothesayer | eboyjr: for i in `seq 1 20` | 01:35 |
| jansen | hi.. cn anyone help me with shortcuts.desktop?? im having a problem.. | 01:35 |
| CShadowRun | zzillezz depends how much ram you have | 01:35 |
| RyanPrior | zzillezz: It depends on the amount of RAM you have, mostly. | 01:35 |
| zzillezz | are there still main disadvantages on going 64 bit | 01:35 |
| CShadowRun | zzillezz if you have 4 or more gb of ram, you want to use 64bit | 01:35 |
| zzillezz | i have 2 gig of ram | 01:35 |
| eboyjr | soothesayer: Thanks | 01:35 |
| CShadowRun | zzillezz i'm using 64bit, i have no issues tbh. | 01:35 |
| RyanPrior | zzillezz: If you have >3GB of RAM, I suggest 64 bit. There are some disadvantages, but if you're tech savvy you should be able to work around them no problem. | 01:35 |
| tj83 | zzillezz... also consider that you might want to use non-free software... like flash and such... 32 bit would be your best bet for a first time run | 01:35 |
| RyanPrior | zzillezz: With 2GB of RAM, you will probably get only a very small benefit from running 64-bit. | 01:35 |
| CShadowRun | zzillezz i found 2 .deb packages that i couldn't install because i was on amd64, and i had to compile those from source. Apart from that, no issues. | 01:36 |
| zzillezz | hmm that's what i was thinking too | 01:36 |
| pete__ | hello, my screen flickers at random. Its not a hardware issue, but im not sure where to start troubleshooting. I'm using hte nvidia restricted driver and the issue started in hardy | 01:36 |
| zzillezz | and i read about the problems with flash and so | 01:36 |
| CShadowRun | zzillezz 64-bit is definatly usable, but you should use 32-bit since you have no real need for 64-bit. | 01:36 |
| RyanPrior | pete__: How are you sure it is not a hardware issue? | 01:36 |
| pete__ | possitive | 01:36 |
| CShadowRun | zzillezz i have no problems with flash...apart from the god damned OSS thingy | 01:36 |
| pete__ | ryanprior: 100% sure | 01:36 |
| RyanPrior | pete__: Emphasis on the word "how" | 01:36 |
| * nakedgoat runs amd64 no flash issues.. | 01:36 | |
| pete__ | ryanprior: didnt happy till the day i upgraded to hardy. Doesnt happen in windows. | 01:37 |
| zzillezz | thanks everyone :-) | 01:37 |
| eugman | How do i use aptitude to search packages by description and not just title? | 01:37 |
| pete__ | ryanprior: on fresh install of hardy it went away for a while but jsut came back today | 01:37 |
| RyanPrior | pete__: does it happen on the LiveCD? | 01:37 |
| pete__ | ryanprior: no | 01:37 |
| pete__ | ryanprior: let me explain what i mean by flicker. the screen seems to like of "refresh" almost... only once. and the display never distorts | 01:38 |
| RyanPrior | pete__: It happens only once? | 01:39 |
| pete__ | ryanprior: yes. but at random | 01:39 |
| pete__ | ryanprior: might happen once every 5 minutes or so | 01:39 |
| RyanPrior | That is strange. I would have no clue how to troubleshoot it either. | 01:40 |
| pete__ | :( | 01:40 |
| pete__ | crap | 01:40 |
| eugman | maybe try changine your screen rate? | 01:40 |
| pete__ | eugman: its at 60hz | 01:40 |
| pete__ | eugman: thats what its always been at... :( | 01:40 |
| RyanPrior | Maybe it should be at 6.005hz? | 01:41 |
| MaestroB | ohhhhhhhhhh | 01:41 |
| eugman | It's something to try. I can't really gues what would be likely to cause such a heisenbug | 01:41 |
| pete__ | ryanprior: 6 would be super low wouldnt it? | 01:41 |
| pete__ | eugman:whats annoying is it went away :( | 01:41 |
| pete__ | eugman: Im thinking its the nvidia restricted driver | 01:42 |
| pete__ | however... dont know a lick about it | 01:42 |
| RyanPrior | pete__: restricted drivers suck. | 01:42 |
| foobar31 | Hi, I'm trying to ./configure a program (bluez-utils-3.31) and it tells me "configure: error: dbus > 0.35 is required". However, I have dbus-1 on my system in /usr/lib/dbus-1.0. How can I tell configure where the library is? | 01:42 |
| RyanPrior | foobar31: Perhaps you should update the update script? | 01:43 |
| foobar31 | update the update script? | 01:43 |
| pete__ | ryanprior: haven't had an issue before. Its not ati... but... the opensource one does even less... | 01:43 |

| yaman | hi every one need some help here i have a dell laptop with a conexant modem and i can't get it work even when tring the alsa ways and linuxant any help to make it work ... ? can i do the same way i used to make the wifi work using the ndiswrapper ( taking the driver files from the windows ) | 01:48 |
| komputes | yaman, what model? | 01:48 |
| yaman | komputes : you mean the laptop or the modem ? | 01:48 |
| komputes | laptop | 01:48 |
| Flannel | D3RGPS31: The firewall has no rules by default, and as such, shouldn't be the problem (unless you've tweaked it) | 01:48 |
| yaman | the laptop is dell 6400 the linux is dopper 6 | 01:49 |
| yaman | and the modem is conexant hd | 01:49 |
| D3RGPS31 | Flannel: i haven't tweaked it, but it is in the way | 01:49 |
| Flannel | yaman: try a newer version, drivers for stuff like that has come a long way since dapper | 01:49 |
| yaman | Flannel: where can i find some thing like this ? | 01:49 |
| chad | this makes no sense, i cannot find a place to disable the auto-dim based on ambient light | 01:50 |
| chad | something is messed up | 01:50 |
| === sexy-ass-guy is now known as hot-lipz-guy | ||

| koyo001 | tons of problems with ubuntu 8.04 | 01:54 |
| yaman | Flannel: what is your advice for me ? | 01:54 |
| komputes | phixxor, yeah, just remember the -h in either case, make it human readable, inlike you like stuff in bytes | 01:54 |
| adc | !dpkg wand | 01:54 |

| koyo001 | amsn also | 01:55 |
| komputes | koyo001, really? I don't have this issue | 01:55 |
| adc | koyo001: amsn works fine here with hardy | 01:55 |
| phixxor | komputes: lol yeah I like it in GB and MB. the thing is I know the folder I'm trying to read is upwards of 90 GB, so du -h is taking a really long time | 01:55 |
| komputes | koyo001, i do admit amsn is weak, pidgin is better | 01:55 |
| koyo001 | adc all my stuff works badly | 01:55 |
| bazhang | koyo001, create a new user and see if the problems persist | 01:56 |

| phixxor | i'm looking for directions on how to connect to wireless through the terminal, anyone care to help me out? | 02:22 |
| vensign | g0tcha are you sure that the ssh is running? | 02:22 |
| jtisme | g0tcha, sshd has to be running | 02:23 |
| g0tcha | vensign, yes it is | 02:23 |
| ythe1300 | komputes : it just keeps saying that it can't mount the partition | 02:23 |
| g0tcha | i did /etc/init.d/ssh restart few times | 02:23 |
| vensign | g0tcha and what is the error? | 02:23 |
| corinth | Anyone know how to change titlebar double clicking to shade in gtk-window-decorator? | 02:23 |
| ythe1300 | komputes: and once I'm in the command line I have no idea what to do. | 02:23 |
| g0tcha | vensign, just tells me connection refuesed | 02:24 |
| g0tcha | ssh: Connct to host localhost port 22: connetion refused | 02:24 |
| komputes | ythe1300, join the crowd, grub is confusing, just remember first disk starts at 0 in grub, not 1 | 02:25 |
| Fath[0]1 | !ssh | 02:25 |
| ubottu | SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/ | 02:25 |

| vensign | or any other firewall? | 02:25 |

| g0tcha | it was giving me the same error msg before installing firestarter as welll | 02:26 |

| nakedgoat | got that same error with wubi on my raid 0 box | 02:28 |
| ythe1300 | yeah I just need to get the info off my XP drive | 02:28 |
| ythe1300 | then I don't care what I have to do to the rest to get it working... | 02:29 |

| Agent_bob | SubOne ##linux and ##linuxhelp | 02:30 |
| TheNerdGotchU | lol nm i only have 128mb on it | 02:30 |
| wols | TheNerdGotchU: it probably means RAM, you can't "free RAM" | 02:30 |
| SubOne | Dr_willis: looking more for hardware | 02:30 |
| phixxor | there's #hardware | 02:30 |
| g0tcha | vensign, nmap is not installed .. one sec | 02:30 |
| Agent_bob | SubOne ##linux and ##linuxhelp | 02:31 |
| wols | szbalint: #hardware | 02:31 |
| vensign | ok g0tcha | 02:31 |

| phixxor | sure :) | 02:31 |
| ythe1300 | Frost have you set up any of the sound devices in the prefrence menu? | 02:31 |
| TeslaTony | TheNerdGotchU: Use the alternate installer. It won't give you the w00tness of a liveCD, but you'll be able to get it installed | 02:31 |
| vensign | wols i know but nmap is more precise | 02:31 |
| ythe1300 | Frost you might start there | 02:31 |
| wols | vensign: BS | 02:31 |
| m1r | hello | 02:32 |
| Agent_bob | where should one go to ask about networking security ? | 02:32 |

| g0tcha | vensign, the ssh port is not listed there | 02:32 |
| TheNerdGotchU | i have mandrake mandriva on that pc also but it has no desktop its just terminal | 02:32 |
| Frost | ythe1300,: i guess i have to enable something | 02:32 |
| TheNerdGotchU | is that what the alternate would be like | 02:32 |
| craigbass1976 | is there a way to look into your Thunderbird inbox via command line (no X apps, just through ssh) | 02:32 |
| TheNerdGotchU | ? | 02:32 |
| ythe1300 | Frost maybe ;) | 02:32 |
| Frost | but cant find out where is the problem | 02:32 |

| Arrick | hey, its been a long time, how do I access a windows network share from within ubuntu? I know it can be accessed with \\ipaddress\sharename on windows, but how do I access it from ubuntu? | 02:33 |
| Arrick | \(NTFS share) | 02:33 |
| ythe1300 | Frost: SIS is not the most supported thing in the world | 02:33 |
| wols | TheNerdGotchU: the alternative installer CD. just look for it on ubuntu.com | 02:33 |
| m1r | DCOP communication error Kdialog , on several diferent applications like amarok , k3b. is there a way to fix this error ? | 02:33 |
| wols | ythe1300: it's been supported since forever. AC97 | 02:33 |
| Frost | but last time some one here told how to do it | 02:33 |
| Frost | but anyway thnx | 02:33 |
| litlebuda | TheNerdGotchU, nop the alternate will install a normal gui | 02:33 |
| craigbass1976 | wols, All I see (after getting down into the file tree) is a 128MB Inbox file | 02:34 |
| Agent_bob | craigbass1976 depends on the format of the mail if it's "maildir" then Mail ./<address_here> | 02:34 |
| TheNerdGotchU | before i download the alternate what would be the difference? | 02:34 |
| wols | craigbass1976: I just told you. less <file> | 02:34 |
| vensign | g0tcha them try reinstall openssh with sudo apt-get install openssh-server | 02:34 |
| wols | TheNerdGotchU: different installer, no live cd | 02:34 |
| nakedgoat | http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howot-install-ubuntu-linux-ssh-server.html | 02:34 |

| Agent_bob | !cli | TheNerdGotchU | 02:37 |

| litlebuda | TheNerdGotchU, nop but you can install it after | 02:37 |
| wols | craigbass1976: there is a file named "Inbox" and it is mbox format, not binary | 02:37 |
| wols | craigbass1976: jsut checked on my tbird install | 02:38 |
| vensign | g0tcha any luck? | 02:38 |
| wols | TheNerdGotchU: you can install "an interface" (I guuess you mean a GUI, X11) on either | 02:38 |
| TheNerdGotchU | im starting to think that installed the mandrak mandriva on that otha pc because its a command line interface | 02:38 |
| Agent_bob | wols ah then it is using maildir format now, good. | 02:38 |
| wols | Agent_bob: no it is NOT using maildir | 02:39 |
| Arrick | any ideas on accessing a windows fileshare from within ubuntu? | 02:39 |
| Agent_bob | wols no ? | 02:39 |
| Agent_bob | oholiks: bad. | 02:39 |
| wols | Arrick: just mount it with smbfs | 02:39 |
| ythe1300 | Arrick : trying to figure that out myself | 02:39 |
| Arrick | wols how? | 02:39 |
| wols | Agent_bob: did you listen? tbird uses and has ALWAYS used mbox | 02:39 |
| litlebuda | TheNerdGotchU, use xubuntu alternate install you shoul get a decent desktop with only 128 of rma | 02:40 |
| wols | Arrick: with that great command called "mount" | 02:40 |

| wols | ythe1300: hint: telling "doesn't work" to people won't solve your problem. unless you find a moron who does your work for you. good luck | 02:42 |
| wols | flotishtu: sudo is needed too for this command | 02:43 |
| ythe1300 | wols I cannot mount it because it is unmountable | 02:43 |
| flotishtu | wols yes. i know. what next? | 02:43 |
| ythe1300 | wols a least that's what ubuntu says | 02:43 |
| Agent_bob | ythe1300 the fs is probably marked as unclean by windows. | 02:43 |
| gltar | wols: does anyone here knows how to make work the intel x3100 with wine??????? | 02:43 |
| flotishtu | wols sudo is not needed if iam root already | 02:43 |

| wols_ | dpkg -S /usr/lib/dri/r200_dri.so | 02:59 |
| wols_ | komputes: I guess one of your libraries (either mesa or r200-dri) is from some other place/distro/whatever | 02:59 |
| wols_ | it lacks this symbol and that's what causes this | 02:59 |

| wols_ | komputes: if you have hardy running already, apt-get dist-upgrade and/or reinstall the packages dealing with your videocard/X. e.g. all xserver*, all mesa, all radeon, all dri | 03:04 |
| Agent_bob | wols well that gives off an unsavery aromah | 03:04 |

| komputes | Agent_bob, yes i'm having an isue with an ATI Radeon 9200 not doing 3d acceleration on Hardy. | 03:04 |

| komputes | wols, thanks i'll try but i doubt it | 03:05 |
| wols_ | Agent_bob: you had differemt interfaces before but the MAC changed, so udev renamed the interfaces | 03:05 |

| komputes | wols, Agent_bob, I can't remember i think it was a gutsy upgrade or a clean install | 03:07 |
| Agent_bob | better idea, dpkg -P udev | 03:07 |
| eugman | joanki2, are you acquianted with man files? | 03:07 |
| wols_ | joanki2: you can't. tar can't do zip, only gzip and bzip2 | 03:07 |
| Odd-rationale | ralph: you might need sudo | 03:07 |
| wols_ | Agent_bob: I wouldn't do that but your choice | 03:07 |
| joanki2 | gzip bzip2 - which one do you recommend? | 03:07 |
| Agent_bob | i almost always do ! | 03:07 |
| wols_ | Agent_bob: you will be very disappointed whne you e.g. try to plug in a usb flash | 03:07 |
| Fath[0]1 | I am using 100% of my cpu but no single program is using it. how do I fix this? | 03:08 |

| wols_ | mark__: we don't care about your XP problems. XP not booting has nothing to do with ubuntu | 03:13 |
| mistik1 | I'm installing it on my daughter's laptop and its been sitting on 'Detecting Hardware' for about half an hour now | 03:13 |
| mistik1 | No drive activity or anything | 03:13 |
| wols_ | lnar: I told you: kill the process | 03:13 |
| AndyMan1 | anyone played with the alternate CD and disk encryption? If you use a keyfile on a usb drive, does it need to remain plugged in, or is it only needed initially for the boot? | 03:13 |
| eugman | christian, is it you main hardrive? | 03:13 |
| mark__ | yes because when i boot from cd it just gets over ran by ubuntu scripts | 03:13 |
| lnar | how do i know the pid? | 03:14 |
| wols_ | mistik1: press ctrl+alt+f2, there log in and run "ps aux" | 03:14 |

| mark__ | wols:yes because when i boot from cd it just gets over ran by ubuntu scripts | 03:14 |

| Kohlrak | Is there any command that i can use to find out what causes a seg fault in a program? | 03:14 |

| navetz__ | hey can somone help me set up a static IP from my router? | 03:15 |
| wols_ | mark__: if you are unable to set your PC to boot from CD instead of harddisk, it is not a ubuntu problem | 03:15 |
| mark__ | wols:i click f12 and instead of the click any button to boot from cd thing it just starts ubuntu | 03:15 |
| mistik1 | this is silly | 03:15 |
| wols_ | navetz__: man interfaces. edit that file (interfaces) and /etc/init.d/networking restart | 03:15 |
| Flannel | mark__: When it starts Ubuntu, choose the 'boot from first harddisk' option | 03:15 |
| christian | eugman:I had attempted to dd image it but I screwed it up (obviously) | 03:16 |
| lnar | wiith ps there are like tons of lines, wich one is the correct to kill??? | 03:16 |
| usser | hey guys what is the most lightweight browser, looking for something for my eeepc | 03:16 |
| mistik1 | When I move the mouse around or ctrl+alt+f2 the CDrom spins up then nothing else | 03:16 |
| Flannel | usser: dillo is pretty good, assuming you still want a GUI | 03:16 |
| AndyMan1 | lynx! | 03:16 |
| wols_ | mark__: your problem IS NOT a ubuntu problem. it's being unable to start from CD. | 03:16 |
| pitchforked | lynx, hehe, very lightweight, just no pictures, but that's no help | 03:16 |
| mark__ | Flannel: thanks for not being an ahole like some others. ill just try that. | 03:16 |
| pitchforked | (it's also hard to use) | 03:16 |
| usser | Flannel, yes a gui lynx is unacceptable :) | 03:16 |
| navetz__ | wols_: just have quick question, what is my gateway suppose to be and what is my route suppose to be? | 03:16 |
| dale | how does one retain terminal history across terminal sessions. 7.04 OK but 8.04 not OK ? Googling doesn't see this as a common hardy behavior. | 03:16 |
| sarthor | Hi, i installed my creative vista webcam, its working on cheese on my hardy, i can view it, but on Gyachi, kopete or ekiga etc, i am unable to broadcast it on the internet.. Help | 03:16 |
| wols_ | Flannel: he wants to boot from CD. how does booting from hdd help him? | 03:17 |
| Agent_bob | mark__ heh that might be because the f12 hotkey was something that the windows bootmgr accepted. you have to set your bios to boot from cdrom first | 03:17 |
| Flannel | wols_: He said regardless of what he does, Ubuntu starts. He's trying to not boot from the CD, but back to windows. | 03:17 |
| wols_ | Flannel: he's trying to boot from windows CD to reinstall it as he told us | 03:17 |
| eugman | chistian, hmm, well you could try the command line program cp which is the generic copying tool. That or i'd try copying things over a little at a time that might be a way around it. I'm afraid i don't know anything more helpful. | 03:17 |
| * pitchforked answered the question based on the wrong browser, heh, this is why i'll never be in support so much | 03:18 | |
| lnar | wols which pid do i have to kill?? i do ps and there is a long list | 03:18 |
| navetz__ | what is your gateway address suppose to be? | 03:18 |
| pitchforked | anyway...gonna paste my whole big speel, been through the paste site so bare with me | 03:18 |
| Agent_bob | mark__ and as wols so patiently pointed out, that is NOT a linux/ubuntu problem. neither is any "ubuntu script" "overwriting" anything. | 03:18 |
| sarthor | Hi, i installed my creative vista webcam, its working on cheese on my hardy, i can view it, but on Gyachi, kopete or ekiga etc, i am unable to broadcast it on the internet.. Help | 03:18 |
| pitchforked | hi, i'm just trying to use ubuntu 8.04 under the wubu install. going into boot it starts fine, but then I'm prompted to choose my time zone, easy enough, immediately after i get Partman crashed, exit code 10 (A retry ultimately ends up in no movement of the install). Continuing with the error, I'm prompted for user information and then get "Summary Crashed" exit code 141 (Same thing happens for a retry as before). after that i' | 03:19 |
| pitchforked | I do notice that after going in to the live cd, I get prompted for the install again and that seems like it will go fine, I'm just concerned that it will overwrite my windows, which I'm just not ready to part with. so i'm just curious of whether that install will only be subject to the wubi vm or if it wants me to just install ubuntu and format the rest. | 03:19 |
| favro | navetz__: the gateway is the routers ip address e.g. 192.168.0.1 | 03:19 |
| lnar | wols which pid do i have to kill?? i do ps and there is a long list | 03:19 |
| mistik1 | 90% done and It looks like I'm going to have to start all over again, Ubuntu MUST can do better than this | 03:19 |
| navetz__ | favro: oh ok, thank you, and is the route the IP address give to my by my ISP ? | 03:19 |
| davidstillson | I upgraded the RAM in my laptop.. it shows the full amount in bios, but in linux, it only shows 3GB of the 4GB i installed... any ideas? | 03:20 |
| mistik1 | Hardware detection on linux is a pretty simple task from goodness sakes | 03:20 |
| davidstillson | thats what I thought | 03:20 |
| pitchforked | wubi, ack... | 03:20 |
| favro | navetz__: route? - you mean comps' ip address? | 03:20 |
| navetz__ | favro: I am not sure, my network manager says route | 03:21 |

| ubottu | lnar: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 03:21 |

| mophead | I'm going nuts with this flash problem. Nobody seems to have any solutions | 03:56 |
| RyanPrior | cypha: It depends. How are you planning on partitioning? | 03:56 |
| * pitchforked couldn't help except say don't see a shrink, they just put you on weird meds | 03:56 | |
| RyanPrior | mophead: The flash problem with sound? | 03:56 |
| Agent_bob | pitchforked :) | 03:57 |
| cypha | RyanPrior: i'm going to shrink the volume on vista, and then i dunno, format it from there as well | 03:57 |
| cypha | or maybe from the live cd | 03:57 |
| cypha | what do u suggest? | 03:57 |
| RyanPrior | cypha: Are you planning on storing your documents on the NTFS partition? | 03:57 |
| mophead | No, it's just that flash things coe up as just a gray box, even if I restart the browser multiple times. It happens in firefox 3, firefox 2, and galeon | 03:57 |
| cypha | RyanPrior: yes | 03:58 |
| cypha | is that a problem? | 03:58 |
| thorny_sun | hey all-- trying to play an .mkv HD file on my movie player but it's all herky jerky-- is there any trick to smoothing this out? I'm assuming my machine should be able to handle this (core 2 duo 3G ram) | 03:58 |
| eeboy | wols_: Back to that windows share mount issue... if I want to make it permanent by adding //192.168.0.5/shared\ files /mnt/win cifs exec,credentials=/etc/cifspw 0 0 it does not work any more (using sudo mount -a to test). Any suggestions? | 03:58 |
| RyanPrior | cypha: In that case you should probably just give Ubuntu about 10-20GB and symlink /home/cypha to /your/windows/drive/Documents and Settings/cypha/My Documents | 03:58 |
| MrPocknix_ | Whats the command to ping another box on my netowkr? | 03:59 |
| dabbill | Any one know what over heating point is for a 4600+ dual core 939 socket ? | 03:59 |
| RyanPrior | MrPocknix_: yer not gonna believe it - the command is ping | 03:59 |

| Kirovski | Tried to install Ubuntu on XPsp2 using in windows installation...after its done creating the first disc image it says it can't acess the CD-ROM drive.. Is this a known issue?? | 03:59 |
| cypha | ryanprior: ok, that sounds great! | 03:59 |
| cypha | RyanPrior: so you think 10 gigs is enough then? | 03:59 |
| RyanPrior | Kirovski: not a problem I've run into. | 03:59 |
| Kirovski | okay | 03:59 |
| cypha | why would i need 20? | 04:00 |
| Agent_bob | monokrome does this happen on cold starts or only on hot reboot ? | 04:00 |
| cypha | i thought ubuntu comes with pretty much all software i would need | 04:00 |
| RyanPrior | cypha: it depends on whether you want to install a ton of Linux programs and games or not. | 04:00 |
| cypha | i don't really plan on playings games | 04:00 |
| BobPenguin | Hello there. I've been having problems with ubuntustudio 8.04 and LiVES video editor. I have emailed the developer and after sending him some info he concluded the problem was that ubuntustudio's version of sox des not support wav files. How can I get sox to support wav? | 04:00 |
| cypha | but what linux programs are not with ubuntu, that are useful? | 04:00 |
| RyanPrior | cypha: If you aren't going to install many new programs, 10 should be fine. I install many, so I use 20 for my root partition. | 04:00 |
| cypha | can i pm you ryan? | 04:00 |
| Agent_bob | cypha tons and tons. | 04:00 |
| RyanPrior | !pm | cypha | 04:01 |
| ubottu | cypha: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit AND help you. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first, some find it rude. | 04:01 |
| mophead | I need help brainstorming. What could be causing flash to putz out completely on my machine? | 04:01 |
| RyanPrior | cypha: thanks for asking though. :-) | 04:01 |
| cypha | ok, i just thought i was floodign a little with a stupid newbie question | 04:01 |
| cypha | but okie dokes | 04:01 |
| cypha | anyway, so ok, i guess i'll do 15 | 04:01 |
| cypha | can i adjust this later? | 04:01 |
| RyanPrior | cypha: we're here for newbie questions. :-) | 04:01 |
| RyanPrior | cypha: It's hard to adjust later, but may be possible. | 04:01 |
| cypha | hmm | 04:02 |
| cypha | so it's hard in comparison to adjusting on windows? | 04:02 |
| cypha | (cuz that's easy) | 04:02 |
| RyanPrior | cypha: You adjust your partition sizes a lot on Windows? | 04:02 |
| cypha | not a lot | 04:02 |
| diver | hey does wine have an irc? | 04:02 |
| cypha | but i can | 04:02 |
| cypha | and i'm going ot do taht right now, in fact | 04:02 |
| RyanPrior | !wine | diver | 04:02 |
| cypha | =) | 04:02 |
| ubottu | diver: 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. | 04:02 |
| dabbill | Any one know what over heating point is for a 4600+ dual core 939 socket ? | 04:02 |
| Agent_bob | it's easy to add space to a linux system | 04:02 |
| FloodBot2 | cypha: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 04:02 |
| Agent_bob | it's very very easy to add space to a linux system | 04:02 |
| diver | thanks ryan | 04:02 |
| RyanPrior | diver: #winehq as well | 04:02 |
| diver | sweeeeeet | 04:03 |
| diver | thanks :D | 04:03 |
| mophead | Is there an irc room for flash problems? | 04:03 |
| RyanPrior | mophead: What sort of flash problem? | 04:03 |
| morgan555 | somebody asked me to post my fstab, what command do I need to enter? | 04:03 |
| Agent_bob | it's probably too easy to add space to a linux system | 04:03 |
| RyanPrior | morgan555: cat /etc/fstab | 04:03 |
| mophead | No, it's just that flash things coe up as just a gray box, even if I restart the browser multiple times. It happens in firefox 3, firefox 2, and galeon | 04:03 |
| mophead | I've tried a few flash fixes, and it's all very dicey. Sometimes it workis, sometimes it doesn't, but now it just doesn't work at all | 04:03 |
| mophead | is there actually a fix out there to get flash working in 8.04? | 04:03 |
| pteague | & paste fstab to pastebin | 04:04 |
| RyanPrior | cypha: It's easy to shrink partitions, but it's hard to grow them sometimes. | 04:04 |
| cypha | hmm | 04:04 |
| RyanPrior | cypha: It's hard to grow them "backwards" on the disk. | 04:04 |
| RyanPrior | cypha: And it's easy to remove from the end of a partition, but hard to move it "forward". | 04:04 |
| cypha | not sure what you mean by "growing backwards" | 04:04 |
| lesjohn | how can i search for a given string within all files with names matching some regex ? i assume i want something like "find ./* -name filenameregex | grep string", but that's not quite it. | 04:04 |
| mophead | Is there a command do uninstall and reinstall an app? | 04:04 |
| cypha | is it due to fragmentation? | 04:05 |
| RyanPrior | cypha If your partition table is like this: [--------], it's easy to shrink it like this: [---- ] | 04:05 |
| RyanPrior | cypha: But it's hard to shrink it like this: [ -----] | 04:05 |
| Agent_bob | RyanPrior why change the size of a partition ? jsut mount more space where it's needed | 04:05 |
| cypha | Agent_bob: what's the difference? | 04:05 |
| RyanPrior | Agent_bob: just mounting more space requires buying new hard drives. | 04:06 |
| Chrysalis | question: should i go get my nvidia drivers for the nvidia site or is whatever that comes with ubuntu sufficient? | 04:06 |
| RyanPrior | Chrysalis: Definitely use the Ubuntu Hardware Drivers manager. | 04:06 |
| wols_ | Chrysalis: unless you want to break your ubuntu: the ubuntu drivers | 04:06 |
| Agent_bob | cypha you don't change anything in the prtition you just mount another fs on the point that you want more space. (with the exception of /etc it's almost a no brainer) | 04:07 |
| wols_ | !lvm | 04:07 |
| ubottu | Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO | 04:07 |
| cypha | hmm | 04:07 |
| mophead | Is there a command do uninstall and reinstall an app? | 04:07 |
| cypha | so i guess that's not considered "cleaner" than a partition? | 04:07 |
| Chrysalis | ok thx | 04:07 |
| cypha | and would that cause issues for me with windows using that partition? | 04:07 |
| wols_ | mophead: man apt-get | 04:07 |
| cypha | or accessing files | 04:07 |
| RyanPrior | cypha: I doubt you'll run out of space with 15G. | 04:08 |
| mophead | wols_: thanks | 04:08 |
| PPKuma | hi, i get no sound when hi, the sound in my games is not working, can someone help me? | 04:08 |
| BVBBQ | hey all, for some reason the latest kernel just doesnt work. doesnt load can someone help me out? | 04:09 |
| cypha | RyanPrior: cool! thanks, exactly what i wanted to hear | 04:09 |
| mophead | PPKuma: try sobering up a bit | 04:09 |
| Agent_bob | cypha if a person has a working linux system and they are running out of room it makes no sense at all to monkey with the root fs. not when it's so easy to add a line to the fstab and be done with it. | 04:09 |
| PPKuma | mophead: sorry... i was saying that my game's sound in not working | 04:09 |
| cypha | Agent_bob: k...so that doesn't have any limitation anywhere? | 04:10 |
| mophead | PPKuma: Is there something else on, like a movie or something? | 04:10 |
| tracey | hello, new user, looking for some help with wireless networking | 04:10 |
| PPKuma | mophead: hmmm nope... | 04:10 |
| tracey | anyone want to help a friend out? | 04:10 |
| Agent_bob | cypha only the limitations of your physical disk/s avalable it doesn't even need to be on the same "disk" | 04:10 |
| PPKuma | mophead: the strange thing is that in my sister's account is working properly | 04:10 |
| cypha | k, cool,,,i'll keep that in mind for the future Agent_bob | 04:11 |
| cypha | thanks | 04:11 |
| RyanPrior | PPKuma: because your sister has h4x | 04:11 |
| Agent_bob | cypha it doesn't even have to be on the same computer | 04:11 |
| cypha | and thanks RyanPrior | 04:11 |
| RyanPrior | cypha: Good luck. :-) | 04:11 |
| cypha | a virtual drive i guess | 04:11 |
| PPKuma | RyanPrior lol | 04:11 |
| Agent_bob | cypha nfs share | 04:11 |
| ibleed | whats a good application to view attached hardware and whether its working in hardy, might be? | 04:12 |
| Flannel | ibleed: lspci and lsusb | 04:12 |
| Agent_bob | and with unionfs it can even transparent | 04:12 |
| tracey | would anyone be able to help install a wireless driver? | 04:12 |
| RyanPrior | ibleed: lshw | 04:12 |
| RyanPrior | !wireless | tracey | 04:13 |
| ubottu | tracey: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 04:13 |
| ibleed | Flannel, i have a usb device thats detected under lsusb how can i find out if its supported by the kernel? | 04:13 |
| ibleed | thanks Flannel and RyanPrior | 04:13 |
| cypha | ohh, so Agent_bob, it would show up as a separate drive then? or folder? | 04:13 |
| cypha | it wouldnt' show as part of the main partition? | 04:13 |
| Agent_bob | cypha nope | 04:13 |
| tracey | i have been through that for a few hours now i'll reread, but if i have questions, can i ask? | 04:13 |
| Agent_bob | cypha and yes it can. | 04:14 |
| RyanPrior | tracey: Yes, but please ask specific questions if possible. | 04:14 |
| tracey | sure | 04:14 |
| cypha | alright, whatever, i'm just going to shrink it 15 gigs so i can install linux and worry about the later stuff later | 04:14 |
| RyanPrior | tracey: Giving us an error message or an exact scenario is much more likely to get you a useful answer. | 04:14 |
| tracey | thanks ryanprior | 04:14 |
| Agent_bob | cypha if by "main partition" you mean root fs then yes. | 04:14 |
| Agent_bob | cypha that's what i've been saying :) | 04:15 |
| RyanPrior | cypha, I'm not sure precisely what you'rea asking. | 04:15 |
| SirMoo | Meh, This IRC thing confuses me. | 04:15 |
| mophead | http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=155441484 is anyone able to see the flash on this page? | 04:15 |
| RyanPrior | SirMoo: what IRC client are you using? | 04:15 |
| SirMoo | I used the packetmanager to install x-chat. | 04:15 |
| ibleed | whats a preferred gnome application to view a hdtv tv tuner? | 04:15 |
| RyanPrior | SirMoo: xchat is decent, but needs a lot of configuration to fit my tastes. | 04:15 |
| SirMoo | Whats a good simple to use one? | 04:16 |
| reduz | help!! (hardy) firefox takes the WHOLE screen when starting, as if it was a fullscreen app! and i can't restore it to a smaller size | 04:16 |
| RyanPrior | ibleed: The premier package for TV on Linux is MythTV, but it's not a Gnome app per se. | 04:16 |
| reduz | any idea what may be happening? | 04:16 |
| RyanPrior | reduz: Press F11 | 04:16 |
| RyanPrior | SirMoo: I like ChatZilla personally. | 04:16 |
| RyanPrior | SirMoo: xchat shouldn't be too hard to get used to and/or customize, though. | 04:16 |
| favafro | +1 xchat | 04:17 |
| reduz | RyanPrior, that goes to.. fullscreen, doesn't change much :P | 04:17 |
| tracey | i have just installed, and when i run lshw -C network it is only showing my wired connection, not my wireless. i have used the windows wireless driver program to install my driver, and have installed netrtx32 it's saying "hardware present" | 04:17 |
| SirMoo | Well.. I see virtually no features. I've used it in the past... But not indepth. | 04:17 |
| cypha | Agent_bob, RyanPrior, i'm not sure precisely what i'm asking either | 04:17 |
| cypha | lol | 04:17 |
| g0tcha | can anyone help me with ssh please? it keeps telling me connection refused when i test ssh localhost | 04:17 |
| RyanPrior | SirMoo: what features are you looking for? | 04:17 |
| Starnestommy | g0tcha: is openssh-server installed? | 04:17 |
| tracey | but i still can't see the wireless hardware, any suggestions....did i miss a step? | 04:17 |
| blizzardman1219 | hi everyone! i'm having an extreme problem setting up my wireless card with Ubuntu 8.04. i've followed every single guide on the forums but still... nothing. i run a Netgear WG311v3 | 04:17 |
| RyanPrior | g0tcha: It might be refusing because you have a blacklisted key | 04:17 |
| mophead | http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=155441484 is anyone able to see the flash on this page? Is it somehow faulty? Because after reinstalling flashplugin-nonfree, youtube at elast works now | 04:17 |
| g0tcha | Starnestommy, yes, and i tried to reinstall it again as well | 04:18 |
| g0tcha | im getting a wierd error when i try to grip ssh | 04:18 |
| nakedgoat | mop: yes | 04:18 |
| Starnestommy | g0tcha: is sshd running in the process list? | 04:18 |
| RyanPrior | mophead: I can see Flash fine. | 04:18 |
| robert__ | ok i still need help with et sound | 04:18 |
| tracey | blizzard: me too | 04:18 |
| g0tcha | it giving me this: Gtk'WARNING **: cannot open display: | 04:18 |
| tracey | that's why i'm here | 04:18 |
| SirMoo | Ha. At the moment... I'm not picky... I just need something thats pretty easy to learn. | 04:18 |
| mophead | RyanPrior: can you see ito n that pargicular page? | 04:18 |
| RyanPrior | mophead: Yes. | 04:18 |
| blizzardman1219 | what problem are you having tracey? maybe its the same one | 04:19 |
| RyanPrior | SirMoo: you're best off learning the text-mode commands. | 04:19 |
| RyanPrior | SirMoo: google for an IRC tutorial and you'll learn everything you need to know. It's really very simple. | 04:19 |
| tracey | when i run lshw -C network it's not showing a wireless card | 04:19 |
| coliny | Sorry, I forgot how to login into this channel. | 04:19 |
| tracey | just the wired one | 04:19 |
| robert__ | need help with et sound | 04:19 |
| tracey | but i thought that i installed the driver | 04:19 |
| coliny | I simply haven't been IRCing for a long time. | 04:20 |

| coliny | Okay, how do I send you an output of say, lspci? | 04:21 |
| g0tcha | Starnestommy, ps -ef | grip ssh <-- this should show if ssh is running, right? | 04:21 |
| crabgrass | is there any way to force v-sync for all my video applications? | 04:21 |

| coliny | What's !pastebin? | 04:21 |
| Chrysalis | my cpu is at 100% with a few tabs in ff3b5, konqueror in kde barely touches my cpu. . . is this normal? | 04:21 |

| tracey | but | 04:22 |
| coliny | Didn't y'all show me earlier how to do with on the web? Come on, this is going so fast! | 04:22 |
| tracey | nothing after | 04:22 |
| coliny | Okay. | 04:22 |
| mophead | Ok, I think I am going to just give up | 04:22 |
| coliny | Okay, sorry. | 04:23 |
| mophead | Thanks anyway, everyone | 04:23 |
| blizzardman1219 | where i'm having my problem is that nothing happens when i do the "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper" command | 04:23 |
| RyanPrior | mophead: Come back tomorrow and ask again, and so on. Hopefully you will get help eventually. | 04:23 |
| dabbill | This cant be good, my CPU is running at 88 degrees celsius :( | 04:23 |
| coliny | Actually, I've got a disk drive to buy (an optical type) and I'm confused. I'll come back later. | 04:23 |
| Celarnor | Yeah, dabbill, that's usually not a good sign. :P | 04:23 |
| Starnestommy | blizzardman1219: when sudo modprobe outputs nothing, it usually has worked | 04:23 |
| robert__ | can some one help me with et sound | 04:24 |
| blizzardman1219 | well, i figured that, but when i do iwconfig, it doesn't show me as having a wireless card | 04:24 |
| dabbill | i just checked the temp for the first time in like 2 years, so i am guessing its been running this hot for that amount of time | 04:24 |
| coliny | Anybody hear me? I'll come back to this later when list out a few CD based products. Okay? | 04:24 |
| Chrysalis | RyanPrior: where do i limit that. . . all i see is for how many days to keep history | 04:24 |
| tracey | blizzard: same for me | 04:24 |
| tracey | iwconfig says no wireless extentions | 04:24 |
| blizzardman1219 | oh, so we are at the same spot | 04:24 |
| RyanPrior | Chrysalis: There's a certain folder in ~/.mozilla/firefox/yourprofile/ to delete | 04:24 |
| ibleed | lsusb detects my hdtv tuner but there is no /dev/video0 on my system. is it not supported? | 04:25 |
| RyanPrior | Chrysalis: You might want to ask in #firefox or on irc.mozilla.org | 04:25 |
| coliny | ubottu: after I've pasted in an output, what do I do next. How do I point you to it? | 04:25 |

| coliny | Look I'm sorry for entering this channel without a reason for it. | 04:31 |
| RyanPrior | coliny: ##hardware might be a better choice for talking about hard drives as well | 04:32 |
| g0tcha1 | hi again | 04:32 |
| blizzardman1219 | so does anyone know how to help tracey's and my problem? | 04:32 |
| g0tcha1 | Starnestommy, i logged in from ubuntu, i think its easier like this | 04:33 |
| tracey | Ryan: so i have installed my driver, and i can see it when i run ndiswrapper -l , but when i run iwconfig it says that i have no wireless extentsions, any ideas? | 04:33 |
| g0tcha1 | i tried to run that command, it gave me this error: (grip:6646): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: | 04:33 |
| Starnestommy | g0tcha1: which command? | 04:33 |
| slyboots | Well this is fun, cant seem to get a video working in either Totem/VLC or mplayer, Seems my ubuntu install is missing a file " xacodec: failed to dlopen /usr/lib/codecs/vid_iv50.xa while /usr/lib/codecs/vid_iv50.xa: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory - which is the Indgo 5 video codec | 04:34 |
| slyboots | Anyone know much about this? | 04:34 |
| g0tcha1 | Starnestommy, ps aux | grip ssh | 04:34 |
| Starnestommy | g0tcha1: it's grep, not grip | 04:34 |
| legend2440 | after clean install of hardy i get this error http://paste.ubuntu.com/12366/ would compiling kernel with via82cxxx module help? | 04:34 |
| tracey | blizzard: i think that we are SOL | 04:35 |
| g0tcha1 | ops | 04:35 |
| g0tcha1 | Starnestommy, root 6499 0.0 0.3 5280 968 ? Ss 03:40 0:00 /usr/sbin/sshd | 04:35 |
| g0tcha1 | guess it means its running | 04:35 |
| Starnestommy | g0tcha1: it appears to be running | 04:35 |
| PPKuma | hi, the sound in my games is not working, can someone help me? | 04:35 |
| g0tcha1 | Starnestommy, why does it keep telling me connection refused even locally then? | 04:35 |
| Starnestommy | g0tcha1: it could be a bad configuration setting in /etc/ssh/ssh_config | 04:35 |
| RyanPrior | PPKuma: most games don't support Pulse Audio yet, so you'll need to quit applications which might be locking the sound device, such as Pidgin, Firefox, Rhythmbox, Amarok, etc. | 04:36 |
| g0tcha1 | Starnestommy, ill paste it for you in pastebin.com .. one sec | 04:36 |
| RyanPrior | g0tcha1: Are you sure your key isn't blacklisted for being insecure? | 04:36 |
| blizzardman1219 | :/ i think we are tracey. so no one can help? | 04:36 |
| PPKuma | RyanPrior ok, ill try that | 04:36 |
| g0tcha1 | RyanPrior, umm how can i check that? | 04:37 |
| montpelie | sniffer help | 04:37 |
| montpelie | please | 04:37 |
| SeaPhor | blizzardman1219, | 04:37 |
| Starnestommy | montpelie: what kind of sniffer do you need help with? | 04:37 |
| RyanPrior | g0tcha1: I'm not sure, but there's been a major security flaw in ssh and so there's now a blacklist for insecure keys related to that flaw. | 04:37 |
| montpelie | ethereal | 04:38 |
| SeaPhor | blizzardman1219, i just came on, what are your issues, if i can help i will, but i am fairly new as well | 04:38 |
| RyanPrior | montpelie: You need to be specific if you want to get a good answer. | 04:38 |
| Starnestommy | montpelie: I think ethereal was repleced with wireshark | 04:38 |
| corinth | How do I disable the blinking cursor in gnome-terminal ? | 04:38 |
| pitchforked | oooh, -was specific :)- | 04:39 |
| blizzardman1219 | i have installed my driver, and i can see it when i run ndiswrapper -l , but when i run iwconfig it says that i have no wireless extentsions, any ideas? | 04:39 |
| blizzardman1219 | that's for a WG311v3 | 04:39 |
| RyanPrior | blizzardman1219: Does network manager work? | 04:39 |
| pitchforked | pending answer though, sad, but okay, will wait :) | 04:39 |
| blizzardman1219 | no | 04:39 |
| RyanPrior | pitchforked: What is your question again? | 04:39 |
| montpelie | wireshark, ok.. I'd like to get to know what sort of info will I be able to get while monitoring the network I've setup | 04:40 |
| pitchforked | http://paste.ubuntu.com/12359/ | 04:40 |
| Starnestommy | montpelie: anything that passes through the network interface that you monitor | 04:40 |
| RyanPrior | montpelie: You can get all the info. You can sniff every packet that passes. | 04:40 |
| montpelie | as far as I know all I'll get will be tcpIP packets converted in ASCII code | 04:40 |
| montpelie | ok, I see | 04:40 |
| SeaPhor | blizzardman1219, what card do u have, what chipset? | 04:40 |
| evilbug | can anyone help me with hardy and video on an ati x1600? | 04:40 |
| RyanPrior | montpelie: You can get non-TCP packets as well, no problem. | 04:40 |
| g0tcha1 | Starnestommy, http://pastebin.com/m3c91387e thats the ssh_config | 04:41 |
| montpelie | ok ryan I get it | 04:41 |
| blizzardman1219 | it's a Netgear WG311v3, chipset is something with Marvell | 04:41 |
| Starnestommy | g0tcha1: what about /etc/ssh/sshd_config ? | 04:41 |
| BVBBQ | hey all, for some reason the latest kernel just doesnt work. doesnt load can someone help me out? | 04:41 |
| montpelie | now, what is the process I should follow so I can convert the packets I get into useful info | 04:42 |
| montpelie | I'm asking you this, because I dont really know how it works | 04:42 |
| montpelie | bare with me | 04:42 |
| RyanPrior | pitchforked: I don't know why the Wubi install failed - can you still boot into Windows? | 04:42 |
| SeaPhor | blizzardman1219, look here yet? http://linux-wless.passys.nl/ | 04:42 |
| g0tcha1 | Starnestommy, one sec | 04:42 |
| pitchforked | yep, there now | 04:42 |
| RyanPrior | montpelie: Perhaps you should google for a packet sniffing tutorial. There isn't really the place to get a primer. | 04:43 |
| === phenom_ is now known as phenom|zZz | ||
| RyanPrior | pitchforked: Have you tried uninstalling Wubi and trying again? | 04:43 |
| montpelie | ok, so google for wireshark right??? | 04:44 |
| blizzardman1219 | http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=1037680&postcount=5 <-- SeaPhor, i used that guide. i got to the command "sudo modprobe ndiswrapper" but when i run iwconfig it doesn't list the wireless as being there | 04:44 |
| bender1337 | what is open box in noob terms? | 04:44 |
| Starnestommy | bender1337: it is a window manager | 04:44 |
| pitchforked | nope, was hoping to see if there was a faster solution, but i will try, ty | 04:44 |
| Scifiguy951 | is there a way to get into comps as the same router as you? with out knowing any info on that other comp? | 04:45 |
| bender1337 | Starnestommy: whats a windows manger and how is it differnet from gnome? | 04:45 |
| Starnestommy | bender1337: openbox is a different window manager than gnome is. It looks different, acts slightly different, and uses less RAM | 04:45 |
| Scifiguy951 | is there a way to get into comps as the same router as you? with out knowing any info on that other comp? | 04:46 |
| bender1337 | Starnestommy: can you still use gnome programs shuch as the GIMP? | 04:46 |
| Starnestommy | Scifiguy951: you'll need to know its hostname or IP address | 04:47 |
| legend2440 | blizzardman1219: maybe something here to try?http://www.jimbo7.com/wiki/index.php?title=WG311v3_LINUX_WIKI | 04:47 |
| g0tcha1 | Starnestommy, heres sshd_config http://pastebin.com/m6a939b72 | 04:47 |
| Starnestommy | bender1337: it can | 04:47 |
| SeaPhor | blizzardman1219, ok modprobe is at 5, and iwconfig is 9, are you sure everything in between was done correctly, and without any errors? | 04:47 |
| Starnestommy | g0tcha1: change the "Port" option from 512 to 22 | 04:47 |
| legend2440 | blizzardman1219: maybe something here to try? http://www.jimbo7.com/wiki/index.php?title=WG311v3_LINUX_WIKI | 04:47 |
| Starnestommy | g0tcha1: then sudo invoke-rc.d ssh restart | 04:47 |
| Scifiguy951 | i went on the pc an went to whatismy ip.com and got the sme thing as this pc said. how do i get its host name or ip | 04:47 |
| SeaPhor | blizzardman1219, like what happened at 8? | 04:47 |
| blizzardman1219 | SeaPhor, i did iwconfig afterward just to see if it recognized the card. it didn't, so i couldn't get to the things afterward. | 04:48 |
| blizzardman1219 | after 5* | 04:48 |
| g0tcha1 | Starnestommy, ok, one sec | 04:48 |
| blizzardman1219 | the ifconfig -a that it tells me to do after 5 doesn't work either | 04:48 |
| Starnestommy | Scifiguy951: to get its LAN IP, you would need to go to that computer physically and get its IP, or you would need to start probing random IPs on your network | 04:48 |
| xsacha | hey.. what licence do the images on ubuntu.com use? if i would like to use one of them... | 04:49 |
| Scifiguy951 | how do i do that? | 04:49 |
| SeaPhor | blizzardman1219, is this a desktop or laptop? | 04:49 |
| blizzardman1219 | SeaPhor, a desktop | 04:50 |
| g0tcha1 | Starnestommy, it worked this time | 04:50 |
| SeaPhor | ok, is this a pci card or a usb device | 04:50 |
| blizzardman1219 | PCI card | 04:50 |
| montpelie | guys 1 question, any good app I can use to scan a NTFS or vfat mounted partition for viruses | 04:50 |
| SeaPhor | blizzardman1219, is this a card or usb device | 04:51 |
| Stale | Does anyone know how to execute a command after another even if the previous one doesn't close? I'm creating a shortcut to click on and am having it a.) mount a remote ftp b.) open a file manager afterward. But, I can't use curlftpfs ftpserv.local /mnt/ftpserv && nautilus since the output of curlftpfs might stay open. Any hints to an && alternative? I tried ||, but no love. | 04:51 |
| SeaPhor | blizzardman1219, ok | 04:51 |
| Scifiguy951 | how do i probe random ips on my network? | 04:51 |
| xsacha | !licence | 04:51 |
| ubottu | Factoid licence not found | 04:51 |
| LtL | Scifiguy951: nmap | 04:52 |
| Scifiguy951 | or ubuntu? | 04:52 |
| SeaPhor | run a lshw -C network and pastebin the result | 04:52 |
| Scifiguy951 | for* | 04:52 |
| Starnestommy | Scifiguy951: find out what your IP is. If it's soemthign like 192.168.1.123, ping everything between 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.1.254 | 04:52 |
| Stale | xsacha: http://www.ubuntu.com/community/ubuntustory/licensing | 04:52 |
| Scifiguy951 | how do i find my ip? | 04:52 |
| Starnestommy | Scifiguy951: ifconfig | 04:52 |
| SeaPhor | blizzardman1219, run a lshw -C network and pastebin the result | 04:52 |
| montpelie | guys 1 question, any good app I can use to scan a NTFS or vfat mounted partition for viruses | 04:52 |
| xsacha | thanks Stale | 04:52 |
| Stale | xsacha: I think that's where I read about it previously, hope it helps | 04:52 |
| Starnestommy | montpelie: clamav | 04:53 |
| blizzardman1219 | SeaPhor: can't really run anything at the current moment. i'm working on a computer that has internet. | 04:53 |
| Scifiguy951 | in terminal? | 04:53 |
| xsacha | Stale: im not sure if that extends to the website as well though. or, if they are only speaking about the distribution | 04:53 |
| Starnestommy | Scifiguy951: yes | 04:53 |
| Stale | xsacha: I could have sworn it specified there but you're right, no specificity | 04:54 |
| SeaPhor | blizzardman1219, ? | 04:54 |
| Stale | ah, wrong link xsacha: http://www.ubuntu.com/aboutus/trademarkpolicy might be more clear | 04:54 |
| g0tcha1 | Starnestommy, so to change the port i have to do it from /etc/init.d/sshd_config not ssh_config? | 04:54 |
| Starnestommy | g0tcha1: yes | 04:54 |
| xsacha | thanks Stale | 04:55 |
| SeaPhor | blizzardman1219, you have a wireless device that isn't working, right? | 04:55 |
| blizzardman1219 | yes | 04:55 |
| Stale | np xsacha, googled "ubuntu trademark license" :) | 04:55 |
| Scifiguy951 | how do i run ip config in term? | 04:55 |
| c-ron | Firefox 3b5 has stopped reading MIME info on my Ubuntu system. Nothing is listed under Preferences > Applications. When opening a file, 'Save As..' is always selected and the open with option is blank. Is this a known bug? Anyone know of a fix? | 04:56 |
| Starnestommy | Scifiguy951: type in "ifconfig" without the quotes then press the Enter key | 04:56 |
| Stale | c-ron: i had the same issue, I didn't find a specific bug, but i noticed that issue also | 04:56 |
| Warrence | anyone from dubai? | 04:56 |
| c-ron | So far I've deleted my ~/.mozilla directory to try and reset it, and also reinstalled firefox.. didn't work | 04:57 |
| Scifiguy951 | nothing happens | 04:57 |
| SeaPhor | blizzardman1219, so why cant you. run a lshw -C network and pastebin the result? | 04:57 |
| SeaPhor | in terminal | 04:57 |
| Scifiguy951 | nvm | 04:57 |
| c-ron | Stale, are you still having that issue? | 04:57 |
| blizzardman1219 | because i can't be on my Ubuntu PC right now, because it doesn't have internet | 04:57 |
| Scifiguy951 | which one is my "ip" | 04:57 |
| Starnestommy | Scifiguy951: the IP address for eth0 or wlan0 | 04:58 |
| Stale | c-ron sometimes. the settings seemed to stick for a few of the file types i download frequently so i didn't look into it much further. it's a bit sporadic, i'm assuming it will be fixed in the final version. | 04:58 |
| urthmover | in Hardy: even though I run sudo nvidia-settings and save my xorg.conf with the high resolution...when I reboot the resolution reverts back to 1024x768 everytime. How do I fix this? | 04:59 |
| Scifiguy951 | "eht0" isnt in there | 04:59 |
| Scifiguy951 | nor wlan0 | 04:59 |
| Stale | c-ron there's an extension i d/l also to manually edit mime types in ff that helped. it's in the addons for FF | 04:59 |
| JDSBlueDevl | hi, is it possible to get support for mldonkey in this channel? | 04:59 |
| Starnestommy | Scifiguy951: what is in there? | 04:59 |
| c-ron | Stale, yeah I saw that.. I think I'll try it out. Thanks | 04:59 |
| SeaPhor | blizzardman1219, ok, on that pc, open terminal and type that exactly, any chance you can hard wire it for a short time? | 05:00 |
| Stale | So, does anyone here know of an alternative to && and || for simultaneous or time delayed execution of shell apps? | 05:00 |
| phiqtion | where are the icons located in hardy? | 05:00 |
| Flannel | Stale: what? | 05:01 |
| urthmover | in Hardy: even though I run sudo nvidia-settings and save my xorg.conf with the high resolution...when I reboot the resolution reverts back to 1024x768 everytime. How do I fix this? | 05:01 |
| Scifiguy951 | link endcap:ethernet hwaddr thats the first one | 05:01 |
| Stale | flannel: Does anyone know how to execute a command after another even if the previous one doesn't close? I'm creating a shortcut to click on and am having it a.) mount a remote ftp b.) open a file manager afterward. But, I can't use curlftpfs ftpserv.local /mnt/ftpserv && nautilus since the output of curlftpfs might stay open. Any hints to an && alternative? I tried ||, but no love. | 05:01 |
| tesmar | anyone have any idea why I would get a user permission error when trying to >> appent to a file in a var directory as SUDO ; the directory has 755 permissions | 05:01 |
| tesmar | any ideas? | 05:01 |
| Scifiguy951 | ??? | 05:01 |
| blizzardman1219 | SeaPhor: i won't be able to hardwire it. hey i really appreciate the help but i've got to go. thanks! i'll be back later to see if i can solve the issue | 05:01 |
| Starnestommy | tesmar: what command are you using? | 05:01 |
| Bakkal | Hello, my guests on Vbox can't access internet, I use NAT, the NIC are detected, the links are up, but ifconfig on host system shows no vbox interfaces, how to? | 05:01 |
| nomic | anyone know why i've lost the sound in xubuntu? any ideas? | 05:02 |
| Flannel | Stale: use & after the command, that'll keep it from taking up the console. You want ;, && and || are dependant on exit codes, ; runs all the time | 05:02 |
| Scifiguy951 | ? | 05:02 |
| Starnestommy | Scifiguy951: try "ifconfig eth0 | grep inet" or "ifconfig wlan0 | grep inet" | 05:02 |
| tesmar | cat "sometext" >> myfile | 05:02 |
| Scifiguy951 | ok | 05:02 |
| tesmar | sudo ca | 05:02 |
| SeaPhor | blizzardman1219, ok, | 05:02 |
| tesmar | using sudo | 05:02 |
| legend2440 | phiqtion: /usr/share/icons | 05:02 |
| Stale | Flannel: aah, I'll try that. Many thanks! | 05:02 |
| JDSBlueDevl | hi, is it possible to get support for mldonkey in this channel? | 05:02 |
| Starnestommy | tesmar: try cat "sometext" | sudo tee -a myfile | 05:02 |

| Bakkal | Hello, my guests on Vbox can't access internet, I use NAT, the NIC are detected, the links are up, but ifconfig on host system shows no vbox interfaces, how to? | 05:03 |
| Starnestommy | JDSBlueDevl: if you're using it on ubuntu, yes | 05:03 |
| Scifiguy951 | which one is my ip? | 05:03 |
| urthmover | in Hardy: even though I run sudo nvidia-settings and save my xorg.conf with the high resolution...when I reboot the resolution reverts back to 1024x768 everytime. How do I fix this? | 05:03 |
| Scifiguy951 | ? | 05:03 |
| Starnestommy | Scifiguy951: please pastebin everything that the terminal says when you type in "ifconfig" | 05:03 |
| tesmar | well, actually that was a siple example I made up but even fails | 05:04 |
| mike_ | phiqtion: user/share/icons | 05:04 |
| Scifiguy951 | no! | 05:04 |
| JDSBlueDevl | ok, good. I'm having trouble with it. It's giving me a "4662 port not reachable" message | 05:04 |
| tesmar | the real command is this | 05:04 |
| tesmar | openssl gendh 512 >> /var/certs/monit.pem | 05:04 |
| Flannel | tesmar: openssl gendh 512 | sudo tee -a /var/certs/monit.pem | 05:04 |
| Scifiguy951 | which number is it? | 05:04 |
| tesmar | what is the difference? I mean, why does the first dail? | 05:04 |
| Scifiguy951 | inet6 addr:?? | 05:05 |
| Jburrke | Are there rules against talking about pirated software in here? Oo | 05:05 |
| Flannel | tesmar: because the sudo is on the first command (openssl) and then the >> is being done as a regular user | 05:05 |
| Starnestommy | tesmar: because the >> command is being run as yourself, not root | 05:05 |
| tesmar | ahhhh | 05:05 |

| Jburrke | node357: Thanks :) | 05:05 |
| JDSBlueDevl | geez, Starnestommy could have told me that first | 05:05 |
| Scifiguy951 | that is my ip then? | 05:05 |
| JDSBlueDevl | thanx a lot, node |-( | 05:06 |
| Scifiguy951 | that doesnt seem like it would be | 05:06 |
| Starnestommy | Scifiguy951: it's the number after the words "inet addr" | 05:06 |
| node357 | well, torrents aren't always about piracy :| | 05:06 |
| Scifiguy951 | what about the bcast:? | 05:06 |
| Starnestommy | Scifiguy951: it's just the inet addr part | 05:07 |

| Loop|t_a| | And I cant find where is the lost space | 05:37 |
| c-ron | Loop|t_a|, you can't loose drive space. it's either partitioned wrong, being read incorrectly by your kernel thru bios settings, or being used by files. | 05:38 |
| kante | Starnesommy: how do I install several packages localy? | 05:38 |
| neto | asus p5b ... no sound ... google doesnt help ... ubuntu forums have no answer ... help | 05:38 |
| dmsuperman | legend2440, what do I do with it? Just install it? | 05:38 |
| Starnestommy | kante: as in without an internet conenction? | 05:38 |
| Loop|t_a| | It was ok 3h ago | 05:38 |
| SeaPhor | White^Knight, as much as i agree with you, there are some that work for other people and have to rely on windows, please consider that, ;-) | 05:38 |
| Cpudan80 | I had nothing but problems with pulse audio | 05:38 |
| Zeker_ | Jebusroxors, and how can I debug with the text editor? Wouldn't it be slower to use three seperate programs instead of one with all three integrated? | 05:38 |
| Loop|t_a| | and then it started | 05:38 |
| Cpudan80 | I moved back to alsa | 05:38 |
| kante | yeap, without connection | 05:38 |
| jeebusroxors | Zeker_: google gcc | 05:38 |
| legend2440 | dmsuperman: yes | 05:38 |
| Loop|t_a| | the apache error.log started to log something | 05:38 |
| White^Knight | SeaPhor: it was a joke :) | 05:38 |
| SeaPhor | White^Knight, what vid card do you have? | 05:38 |
| j1solutions | neto: latest BIOS update for that board? | 05:38 |
| Loop|t_a| | and after 1h the log was 200gb | 05:39 |
| SeaPhor | :-)) | 05:39 |
| White^Knight | nvidia tnt | 05:39 |
| Loop|t_a| | I deleted log | 05:39 |
| dmsuperman | woot :D thanks :D | 05:39 |
| j1solutions | neto: did sound ever work/does it work under windoze? | 05:39 |
| neto | j1solutions, never updated the bios | 05:39 |
| neto | it works great on windows | 05:39 |
| Starnestommy | kante: go to http://packages.ubuntu.com/ then search for what you want, then download the packages that you want and the ones that they require from another computer | 05:39 |
| d[X_X]b | i have suspend issues dell gx620. i pop warning saying failed to suspend properly...anyone know why this is? | 05:39 |
| j1solutions | neto: i can't help but check/update BIOS when troubleshooting hardware issues | 05:39 |
| Loop|t_a| | and in df I see that space is used and with du I cant find where | 05:39 |
| Zeker_ | what's the easiest way to install gcc? | 05:39 |
| SeaPhor | White^Knight, what have you tried already or is theis fresh install? | 05:40 |

| d[X_X]b | installed ati restricted drivers already | 05:40 |
| neto | j1solutions, there are threads on ubuntu forums about this... no answers there as well | 05:40 |
| Zeker_ | jeebusroxors, I have no idea haha | 05:40 |
| kante | I think I'd better install packages using adep and hen just copy them from /vat/cache/ap/archives | 05:40 |
| jeebusroxors | Zeker_: which gcc | 05:40 |

| Zeker_ | jeebusroxors, like I said I'm real new at this, I've just created my first hello world app in windows yesterday using visual c++ 6.0 haha | 05:41 |
| White^Knight | i've got it runnin, and it's been running with the "nv" driver, but the help website says to change my /etc/X11/xorg.conf file to read "nvidia" and make no other changes in one point... | 05:41 |
| Zeker_ | yesterday! | 05:41 |
| White^Knight | but when i do that, i can't boot into any window manager at all | 05:41 |
| neto | j1solutions, i have a Live! around somewhere.. but my pc is new... cant open it or i will loose the warranty | 05:41 |
| pcglue | My upgrade from Gutsy to Hardy had errors and apt-get now tells me to run "dpkg --configure -a". When I do that, I get an error setting up docbook-xml (4.5-5) ... "update-xmlcatalog: cannot open catalog data /var/lib/xml-core/docbook-xml for writing: No such file or directory at /usr/sbin/update-xmlcatalog line 485." Anyone know how to fix this? | 05:41 |
| Zeker_ | starnesstommy, thank you | 05:41 |
| neto | j1solutions, warranty is good for another year... cant have no sound for a whole year :( | 05:42 |
| Zeker_ | oh | 05:42 |
| Starnestommy | Zeker_: you may also need to run "sudo apt-get install build-essential" to actually be able to compile things with ti | 05:42 |
| j1solutions | neto: me and warrantys don't get along so well. : ) | 05:42 |
| Starnestommy | *it | 05:42 |
| neto | heh | 05:42 |
| j1solutions | neto: i fix stuff myself mostly | 05:42 |
| kante | Sarnestommy: thanks for your help! Have a nice day | 05:42 |
| c-ron | White^Knight, install the envy or envyng progam and install the legacy drivers | 05:42 |
| SeaPhor | White^Knight, what version of ubuntu you on,,, 7.10, 8.04, gutsy, hardy, or what? | 05:42 |
| Zeker_ | starnestommy, turns out I already had gcc but I'm currently installing build-essential =P | 05:43 |
| jeebusroxors | White^Knight: what do your logs say | 05:43 |
| White^Knight | SeaPhor: i have 8.04 | 05:43 |
| walkman79 | how can I free space on ubuntu? I'm using utorrent on Ubuntu with wine. I deleted some files by clicking on "remove torrents and delete data" but I didn't free any space. I also emptied the deleted items folder but those files weren't there :S | 05:43 |
| neto | j1solutions, me too... but i spent a lot on this box.. quad schmucks and stuff.. i'd sepuku if the cpu died tomorrow | 05:43 |
| Zeker_ | yay, it's installed! | 05:43 |
| jeebusroxors | walkman79: why are you running utorrent in wine? | 05:44 |
| Zeker_ | what does build-essential do, in a nutshell? | 05:44 |
| jeebusroxors | thats silly | 05:44 |
| c-ron | White^Knight, install the envy program: sudo apt-get install envyng-core | 05:44 |
| xbj9000 | Zeker_, it allows you to compile from source code | 05:44 |
| kante | bye everyone! | 05:44 |
| yrjokin | walkman79: the space is there if you reboot | 05:44 |
| Starnestommy | Zeker_: it installs gcc and some libraries, utilities, and headers for compiling things | 05:44 |
| c-ron | White^Knight, run it thru the text interface, sudo envyng -t | 05:44 |
| SeaPhor | White^Knight, ok, look at System>Administration>Hardware Drivers | 05:44 |
| walkman79 | I rebooted | 05:44 |
| walkman79 | nothing changed | 05:45 |
| PreToRiAnZ | does any1 knows what is make checkconfigure? | 05:45 |
| yrjokin | oh - that happens here is all | 05:45 |
| Zeker_ | sbj9000, thank you but don't the EDI's available already come with a built-in compiler? Why would it need these? | 05:45 |
| j1solutions | neto: it wasn't your last dollar, was it? : ) | 05:45 |
| yrjokin | i get my space | 05:45 |
| mevsthevoices | Check the config file to make sure nothing has changed in system setup | 05:45 |
| Starnestommy | PreToRiAnZ: what program are you trying to build? | 05:45 |
| jeebusroxors | Zeker_: you dont need an IDE for c | 05:45 |
| PreToRiAnZ | asterisk | 05:45 |
| walkman79 | I think it is a bug in wine... | 05:45 |
| SeaPhor | White^Knight, what shows there? | 05:45 |
| c-ron | White^Knight, select option 5 to manually install, 2 for nvidia drivers, 3 for 71.86.04 (legacy) driver | 05:45 |
| Starnestommy | PreToRiAnZ: I think it just checks configuration settings | 05:46 |
| c-ron | White^Knight, in that order | 05:46 |
| White^Knight | c-ron: ok, i'm installing the evying-core program now | 05:46 |
| neto | j1solutions, sorta ;) ... are there any USB sound cards that really work? | 05:46 |
| Gantz | i can't boot windows because of an NTLDR error | 05:46 |
| White^Knight | ok, y'all are goin a little quick for me :) | 05:46 |
| j1solutions | neto: never tried one | 05:46 |
| neto | guess i should check the website | 05:46 |
| Loop|t_a| | c-ron if its being read incorrectly by kernel thrugh bios settings, it started 3h ago, and if its partitioned wrong its started 3h ago, I counted the space with MC(with directory sizes) and with du, and the missing space is the same as the deleted log file | 05:46 |
| Zeker_ | jeebusroxors, I understand that all you really need is a text editor with syntax highlighting right? But I'm not that hardcore haha i need something with a debugger =P maybe someday I'll reach that level? Or should I begin that way? | 05:46 |
| PreToRiAnZ | i know, but i cant do the checkconfigure at the CLI | 05:47 |
| f0rmat | can someone tll me how to blackhole an ip address? | 05:47 |

| jeebusroxors | Zeker_: *shrug* | 05:47 |
| Loop|t_a| | c-ron you didnt understood | 05:47 |
| jeebusroxors | do what you want i spose, your compile will fail if your code sucks and you debug from there | 05:47 |
| Loop|t_a| | I had 270gb of free space 4h ago | 05:47 |
| Loop|t_a| | 3h ago I saw that apache error.log started to crazy | 05:48 |

| neto | j1solutions, worse... yellow wax everywhere... the kind of color you cant find anywhere | 05:48 |
| Zeker_ | what do you guys think, EDI to begin with, or should I man-up and use separate components? =P | 05:48 |
| j1solutions | neto: you are a tinkerer. be true to yourself. tinker. I was an auto mechanic for 20 years. my rule: if there is tamper protection on something, it need adjusting | 05:48 |
| Loop|t_a| | and 2h ago I saw that I have zero space | 05:48 |
| Loop|t_a| | and then I saw the error.log was 250gb | 05:48 |
| neto | heh | 05:48 |
| PreToRiAnZ | jeebusroxors, for telephony purposes | 05:49 |
| Loop|t_a| | I deleted that file but I didnt get free space any free space | 05:49 |
| jeebusroxors | Zeker_: ive never seen, or heard of, or cared to hear of an IDE | 05:49 |
| wols_ | Loop|t_a|: have you restarted apache2 after deleting the log? | 05:49 |
| c-ron | Loop|t_a|, did you stop apache, delete and reboot? | 05:49 |
| Loop|t_a| | no I didnt | 05:49 |

| Fath[0]m | How do you uninstall something in linux? | 05:50 |
| jeebusroxors | Zeker_: what is the point of your ide? | 05:50 |
| White^Knight | ok, i tried installing that envying-core program, and it couldn't find the package | 05:50 |
| c-ron | asterisk was a gull | 05:50 |
| wols_ | Fath[0]m: with synaptic | 05:50 |
| jeebusroxors | PreToRiAnZ: ive had an asterisk box up for a few years | 05:51 |
| neto | j1solutions, could you ship me some? maybe it will do the trick | 05:51 |
| j1solutions | neto: 10 dollars an ounce | 05:51 |
| coldboot | 10 dollars an ounce? | 05:51 |
| coldboot | It's not even that cheap in Canada! | 05:51 |
| Fath[0]m | Wols_: what if I dont see it in there? | 05:52 |
| c-ron | damn that's like 10x less than i pay | 05:52 |
| PreToRiAnZ | jeebusroxors, im new to asterisk | 05:52 |
| Zeker_ | Jeebusroxors, I have no idea how to work with separate components. I figure its faster if they're all in one spot. In fact, sadly, i don't really know much about IDE's... like I said, I just started learning c/c++ yesterday! | 05:52 |
| neto | j1solutions, hmmm.. guess i wont be cleaning my ears for the next months then | 05:52 |
| Opethian | Fath[0]m: Did you compile from source? | 05:52 |
| wols_ | Fath[0]m: then you haven't installed it as a .deb package in ubuntu and is OT here | 05:52 |
| jeebusroxors | Zeker_: so go google c tutorial | 05:52 |
| Fath[0]m | It uses wine | 05:53 |
| j1solutions | neto: disable the sound in BIOS, reboot to ubuntu, enable the sound in BIOS and boot again (didja try that?) | 05:53 |
| wols_ | Fath[0]m: totally OT then | 05:53 |

| wols_ | lamalex: with cdrecord/wodim | 05:54 |
| jeebusroxors | Zeker_: there probably is, but you wont get far asking questions that can be answered with google | 05:54 |
| wols_ | lamalex: do you have a backup? | 05:55 |
| lamalex | wols_: ok, but I need usage | 05:55 |
| lamalex | wols_: yeah | 05:55 |
| White^Knight | and it doesn't list anything in there for my nvidia card (but it's tryin to say that it is an agp card, and i don't think it is | 05:55 |
| Loop|t_a| | c-ron and wols thanks I restarted apache and the space is back | 05:55 |
| wols_ | man wodim | 05:55 |

| c-ron | White^Knight, then pick option 5 to manually install, then option 1 to install ATI drivers | 06:10 |
| White^Knight | c-ron: instead of the nvidia drivers? | 06:11 |
| c-ron | White^Knight, wait.. which do you have ? :) | 06:11 |
| White^Knight | c-ron: i have an nividia tnt card | 06:11 |
| c-ron | White^Knight, sorry sleep dep :) choose 2 for nvidia, then 3 for legacy | 06:12 |
| White^Knight | c-ron: i know all about the sleep dep... i am too :) | 06:12 |
| Keo_Kyzuki | Hello. My sound seems to have stopped working altogether, even though it was on the last boot. Does anyone have suggestions? | 06:13 |
| illmorta1 | does anyone know of a good playstation 3 linux channel? excluding ps3linux? | 06:13 |
| c-ron | Keo_Kyzuki, make sure your sound isn't muted or something | 06:14 |
| White^Knight | c-ron: it's removing the nvidia-glx-legacy that is already installed on my system now... is it suppossed to do that? | 06:14 |
| Ryuho | is AIR (adobe thing) available on ubuntu (or linux at all?) | 06:14 |
| c-ron | Keo_Kyzuki, you might also consider a hearing aid | 06:15 |
| c-ron | White^Knight, yes. | 06:15 |
| White^Knight | Keo_Kyzuki: have u released the factory installed smoke in the speakers? | 06:15 |
| Keo_Kyzuki | c-ron, thanks for the smart response. The sound isn't muted, I've made sure of that. | 06:15 |
| Fath[0]m | whenever I type in google.com into fire fox in hardy its bringing me to Govt of india homepage | 06:16 |
| c-ron | Keo_Kyzuki, check to make sure that your sound card is getting a kernel module loaded for it.. lsmod | grep snd | 06:16 |
| White^Knight | Fath[0]m: whoa! lol | 06:16 |
| Fath[0]m | yea | 06:17 |
| Fath[0]m | really weird | 06:17 |
| White^Knight | Fath[0]m: i've never even heard of any browser doing that before :D | 06:17 |
| c-ron | Fath[0]m, your DNS server or proxy is doing it | 06:17 |
| Fath[0]m | http://www.drdo.com/labs/cair/index.html | 06:17 |
| favro | Fath[0]m: try www.google.com.us | 06:17 |
| markers | hey guys when i start my laptop it says "your screen and graphics card could not be detected correctly" i have an intel 945 | 06:17 |
| Fath[0]m | thats where its bringing me | 06:18 |
| Keo_Kyzuki | c-ron, not sure what the default is for an nvidia chipset, but I see that the snd-hda-intel module is loaded. | 06:18 |
| Talon218 | r u supporting hardy in this room?? | 06:18 |
| White^Knight | c-ron: sorry for my lack of faith... it's puttin some new programs in there instead :D | 06:18 |
| Fath[0]m | if I type in www.google.com it brings me to the right place | 06:18 |
| Starnestommy | Talon218: yes | 06:18 |

| macguges | hello, I've just noticed a problem with my new heron installation. Certain games and screensavers flicker. Would that be a problem with DGA? How could I determine which part of X is having this flickering problem? Btw, I'm using ATI's Radeon driver. | 06:18 |
| Talon218 | okay hardy isn't picking up my ATA hard drive | 06:19 |
| david__-- | my wireless was working perfectly earlier,theen while browsing the internet it cut out and now I cant connect through my router yet my wireless blue light is still on | 06:19 |
| Talon218 | what extra information do you want to know | 06:19 |
| d[X_X]b | macguges try temporary disabling compiz | 06:19 |
| c-ron | Keo_Kyzuki, the snd-hda-intel module usually requires an extra parameter to work ... see http://www.pclinuxos.com/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=58&topic=26204.0;wap2 | 06:19 |
| macguges | d[X_X]b: ok | 06:20 |
| dopievoli | macgues: Might be drivers | 06:20 |
| dopievoli | if it is try envy | 06:20 |
| White^Knight | c-ron: ok, restart time? | 06:21 |
| c-ron | White^Knight, yup | 06:21 |
| c-ron | what the hell.. how do you shorted 'does not' ... doesn't ?? | 06:21 |
| Keo_Kyzuki | c-ron, yes, because pclinuxos is exactly like Ubuntu. (Psst, by the way: modprobe.conf isn't in just /etc/.) | 06:21 |
| White^Knight | c-ron: i'll brb if everything worked like it's suppossed to :) | 06:21 |
| * White^Knight crosses fingers and reboots | 06:22 | |
| markers | hey can someone help me? i have hardy and out of nowhere it started to say this when i boot up "hey guys when i start my laptop it says "your screen and graphics card could not be detected correctly" | 06:22 |
| hotmonkeyluv | i'm creating a seperate partition for my /boot directory, how big does it need to be? | 06:22 |
| Myrtti | markers: started to say what? | 06:23 |
| Myrtti | hotmonkeyluv: standby, I'll see how big mine is | 06:23 |
| markers | "your screen and graphics card could not be detected correctly" | 06:23 |
| hotmonkeyluv | Myrtti: cool | 06:23 |
| Myrtti | hotmonkeyluv: /dev/sda1 236M 25M 199M 12% /boot | 06:23 |
| c-ron | Keo_Kyzuki, yes module confs are a pain in the ass to locate | 06:23 |
| hotmonkeyluv | Myrtti: so, about 250mb? | 06:23 |
| macguges | wait - compiz is heron's window manager? Which window manager is recommended if I don't use compiz? | 06:24 |
| gnomer | David unplug you router power cord for 20 seconds then plug it back in, sometimes it is good to let it reboot it self..works for me when that happens | 06:24 |
| hotmonkeyluv | Myrtti: or is that 25mb? | 06:24 |
| hotmonkeyluv | cause it doesn't seem like it needs to hold a whole bunch | 06:24 |
| c-ron | Keo_Kyzuki, /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base | 06:24 |
| Myrtti | hotmonkeyluv: yeah, mine is 236, and that's what the alternative installer suggests when you choose to do a "encrypted on LVM" installation | 06:24 |
| Talon218 | hardy isn't picking up my Seagate ATA drive, in gutsy the drive is recognized on scsi0. During hardy's boot and within logs i notice a failure to recognize the UUID | 06:25 |
| Myrtti | hotmonkeyluv: (that was an output of 'df -h') | 06:25 |
| favro | hotmonkeyluv: 100mb is ok for /boot | 06:25 |
| hotmonkeyluv | how do you like that lvm fancy stuff? | 06:25 |
| Myrtti | hotmonkeyluv: I don't have a choice really, company policy that I have to have all my harddrives xcept /boot encrypted | 06:25 |
| hotmonkeyluv | favro: I was thinking of between 50 and 250mb, just in case I need to hide something in there ;) | 06:26 |
| Myrtti | hotmonkeyluv: wfm | 06:26 |
| markers | Myrtti: do you have any ideas what i should do about this "your screen and graphics card could not be detected correctly" | 06:26 |
| hotmonkeyluv | Myrtti: is there a performance hit? | 06:26 |
| Myrtti | hotmonkeyluv: not that I've noticed | 06:26 |
| Myrtti | hotmonkeyluv: then again, I don't notice those things that much | 06:26 |
| mike_ | how do i do a bios update in ubuntu? | 06:27 |
| Talon218 | Do anyone have any ideas on why hardy won't pick up a scsi | 06:27 |
| hotmonkeyluv | Myrtti: what sort of work do you do? | 06:27 |
| c-ron | /boot doesn't need to be all that big unless you have multiple kernels | 06:27 |
| Myrtti | markers: do you have a desktop installation cd nearby? | 06:27 |
| markers | yes | 06:27 |
| hotmonkeyluv | c-ron: I plan to have sever | 06:27 |
| hotmonkeyluv | c-ron: *several | 06:27 |
| Myrtti | hotmonkeyluv: software development, currently working on LaTeX | 06:27 |
| hotmonkeyluv | Myrtti: what's that? | 06:27 |
| Myrtti | !latex | 06:27 |
| ubottu | tex is a language for describing a document, commonly used especially for scientific publishing. Information and instructions for installing TeX and other related packages can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LaTeX | 06:27 |
| c-ron | hotmonkeyluv, servers should be okay, unless you have multiple kerenls | 06:28 |
| Myrtti | markers: pop one in, reboot your computer, see if it detects the settings right | 06:28 |
| c-ron | hotmonkeyluv, each kernel can take up 10+ megs | 06:28 |
| gnomer | bios has nothing to do with the os, to update the bios you have to flash it | 06:28 |
| Cpudan80 | hotmonkeyluv: LaTeX is king for typesetting | 06:28 |
| hotmonkeyluv | c-ron: well, that's not to bad, I can have 20 kernels then | 06:28 |
| Cpudan80 | forget OpenOffice | 06:29 |
| Cpudan80 | Or MS Word | 06:29 |
| [T]an2 | anyone know how to make the vpn manager in the gnome networkmanager not change my dns server in resolv.conf? | 06:29 |
| mike_ | I've got pheonix awardBIOS on an hp 700, and i was wondering how to flash the bios on ubuntu | 06:29 |
| c-ron | hotmonkeyluv, if you need 20 kernels, you have what they call 'special needs' | 06:29 |
| hotmonkeyluv | but we knew that... | 06:29 |
| White^Knight | c-ron: other than glxgears, is there any other test to make sure that my glx is workin right? :D | 06:29 |
| Cpudan80 | mike_: Not the best idea - use a floppy drive | 06:29 |
| miickee | Hey I need help with setting my dvd read speed to be faster using sdparm/hdparm, It's clocked at like 300mb/s using hdparm -Tt command. | 06:29 |
| * hotmonkeyluv 's mommy says' he's special | 06:29 | |
| c-ron | White^Knight, try a sweet assed GL screen saver? or install alien arena | 06:30 |
| Ultim4T0m | Hi all | 06:30 |
| White^Knight | c-ron: oh, and so far, so good :) | 06:30 |
| mike_ | Cpudan80: dont have a drive lol | 06:30 |
| joanki2 | can anyone tell me how i can install .tgz software packages? | 06:30 |
| joanki2 | it's on my desktop right now | 06:30 |
| thegeek | I just lost my audio completely. No program will play audio. I tried killing pulseaudio and starting it back up. No help. I think that rebooting it would probably fix it but I don't want to try that unless nobody has any other suggestions. Does anyone have any ideas? TIA | 06:30 |
| Cpudan80 | mike_: Look at BartPE | 06:30 |
| c-ron | joanki2, tar gx something.tar.gz | 06:31 |
| Cpudan80 | mike_: It's a bootable windows install so you could load the flashing prog IIRC | 06:31 |
| miickee | type alsamixer in terminal and play with the channels and their volumes, see if they are blocked | 06:31 |
| c-ron | joanki2, then nano README | 06:31 |
| Cpudan80 | mike_: im not aware of a reliable way of flashing the BIOS from ubuntu | 06:31 |
| mike_ | hmmm | 06:31 |
| Cpudan80 | mike_: Which begs the question, why are you flashing the bios? | 06:31 |
| thegeek | miickee: Were you talking to me? Everything in the mixer responds to input.... | 06:32 |
| c-ron | flashing the bios is best achieved with a trenchcoat | 06:32 |
| mike_ | well, i guess what im trying to figure out is if there is a way to open my options for adjusting clock speeds etc | 06:32 |
| SeaPhor | Cpudan80, u dont flash bios from os,,, | 06:32 |
| mike_ | i might be way off... | 06:32 |
| miickee | thegeek: Yeah, well I had that problem and I fixed it using a lot of different methods. | 06:32 |
| thegeek | ....Oh? | 06:32 |
| friedtofu | flash it from a bootup cd? | 06:32 |
| miickee | Go to www.ubuntuforums.com and go to Video and Multimedia forum, and the sticky at the top dedicated to sound will help a lot | 06:32 |
| thegeek | miickee: Okay, thanks | 06:32 |
| sykopomp | fsck | 06:33 |
| Myrtti | !who | 06:33 |
| ubottu | 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 :) | 06:33 |
| sykopomp | oops! | 06:33 |
| Myrtti | !tab | 06:33 |
| ubottu | You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 06:33 |
| c-ron | shut the fu ubottu | 06:33 |
| Cpudan80 | SeaPhor: Wrong | 06:33 |
| Cpudan80 | SeaPhor: You can flash the bios from specific utilities in windows | 06:33 |
| Cpudan80 | SeaPhor: Now, that isnt the preferred way to do it... but it does work | 06:33 |
| Myrtti | c-ron: mind your language | 06:33 |
| mike_ | Cpudan80: so is there another way to open up the clocking options in my bios? | 06:33 |
| morphius | I am having trouble: fdisk -l shows /dev/sdb and /dev/sdc as recognized drives. df -h -a shows that root is running off of /dev/hda. I should have 5 drives total. what can I do to get my drives back? running gutsy. | 06:33 |
| friedtofu | Cpudan80: but its better to flash from bootup and the like... | 06:34 |
| Madpilot | c-ron, being rude to the bot makes you look dumb. Being rude to people gets you kicked. Your call. | 06:34 |
| Cpudan80 | friedtofu: most definitely | 06:34 |
| c-ron | some people have no sense of humor | 06:34 |
| Cpudan80 | mike_: Some bios have an advanced thing you can turn on - what kind of mobo is it? | 06:34 |
| Myrtti | c-ron: no, it's just channel rule | 06:34 |
| Myrtti | !language > c-ron | 06:34 |
| SeaPhor | Cpudan80, sorry, you haven't convinced me, i'd like to know mor so i can show my bosses | 06:34 |
| mike_ | msi | 06:34 |
| mike_ | Cpudan80: msi | 06:35 |
| LSD|Ninja | I used teh Award WinFlash thing to install a raft of BIOS updates on my old 8RDA+ under XP without a lick of trouble whatsoever | 06:35 |
| paulcross | Starnestommy, Thank you. I finally find out what is it downloading, by using the software you recommended. | 06:35 |
| c-ron | Myrtti, btw i have not used any offense language, in case you didn't notice | 06:35 |
| thegeek | miickee: This seems like it's more helpful for people who NEVER had audio working....talking about drivers, and enabling integrated adapters in the BIOS, and stuff | 06:35 |
| mike_ | SeaPhor: there are now programs you can download that do the bios flash for you, it just restarts your computer and flashes | 06:35 |
| thegeek | miickee: But I have had no problem with sound in the past, and just a few seconds ago I lost it out of nowhere | 06:35 |
| Cpudan80 | mike_: dont know much about MSI --- are you sure you cant just enable it directly (without flashing)? | 06:35 |
| mike_ | seaphor: i just did it to my lappy | 06:35 |
| Myrtti | c-ron: in case you didn't notice, you used an acronym that contained offensive language | 06:35 |
| Myrtti | c-ron: which is basically the same thing. | 06:35 |
| === Jabopz is now known as Jabop | ||
| mike_ | Cpudan80: i couldnt see a way inside the bios.. is there a particular place i should look? | 06:36 |
| c-ron | Myrtti, in case you didn't notice.. acronyms don't mean anything unless you know what they stand for | 06:36 |
| miickee | thegeek:Restarted your pc? Gone to System > Preferences > Sound and put all to pulseaudio or alsa? | 06:36 |
| Myrtti | c-ron: right. | 06:36 |
| c-ron | Myrtti, right. | 06:36 |
| LSD|Ninja | mike_: with Award, it;s usuall Del on startup to access the BIOS | 06:36 |
| c-ron | so fsck ubottu | 06:37 |
| SeaPhor | mike_, (sorry bro, was a joke) I work for HP testing Bios and firmware, the other guy is clueless | 06:37 |
| thegeek | miickee: Okay, I just switched it all to ALSA....seems to fix it. So do you think it's just some bug in pulseaudio? | 06:37 |

| Talon218 | Do anyone have any ideas on why hardy won't pick up an ata hd. dmesg reports a failed to Identify io error. any ideas?? | 06:37 |

| Cpudan80 | mike_: Advanced Chipset features & Cell Menu | 06:37 |
| mike_ | Cpudan80: ? | 06:38 |
| Myrtti | c-ron: remember what I told you though | 06:38 |
| sykopomp | pulseaudio isn't ready for primetime, no matter how hard the big distros try and push it. | 06:38 |
| Cpudan80 | mike_: Those are the BIOS menu options that have overclock stuff beneath them | 06:38 |
| markers | Myrtti: i dont know what happened but after i rebooted with the cd everything is back to normal. thank you for your help | 06:38 |
| Psyco_Chipmunkk | Hey guys, for some reason, when I'm watching a video on compiz fudion and I go into the cube thing or "wobble" the window, the video doesent go aloung with it, it just goes black or it keeps playing but doesent distort and move with the effects like it use to. how do i fix this? | 06:38 |
| mike_ | Cpudan80: yes, but i have an oem bios, which doesnt have those options available by default | 06:38 |
| Myrtti | markers: it's only temporary | 06:39 |
| Cpudan80 | mike_: I see... | 06:39 |
| LSD|Ninja | mike_: then you probably can't magically enable them | 06:39 |
| c-ron | Myrtti, o i know. cause all those PG kids are using linux late on school night.. best not corrupt their young christian minds | 06:39 |
| Myrtti | markers: when you take the cd out, you'll probably end up in the same situation | 06:39 |
| White^Knight | c-ron: when i tried to run a gl screen saver (fireworks), it completely froze my system | 06:39 |
| Cpudan80 | mike_: Flashing an OEM board with non OEM stuff = bad idea | 06:39 |
| Madpilot | c-ron, lay off. This is an extremely international channel, it isn't late night everywhere... | 06:39 |
| Cpudan80 | it may change the signatures of the board which would mean licensing hell for windows | 06:39 |
| david__-- | my wireless was working perfect earlier then cut out while browsing the internet for no apparent reason...now its telling me that network interface doesnt exists,please help!!! | 06:39 |
| Cpudan80 | and maybe some bad things in Ubuntu | 06:40 |
| LSD|Ninja | You can *sometimes* flash an OEM board with the BIOS version of its desktop counterpart (if one exists) but it's by no means 100% certain | 06:40 |

| Opethian | david__--: sudo ifconfig <device name> up | 06:41 |
| Myrtti | markers: funky! | 06:41 |
| c-ron | Myrtti, don't censor me. i didn't say anything. | 06:41 |
| mike_ | Cpudan80: yea that's what i figured, its just sucky not being able to edit anything, and i couldn't figure out if there was a way to open up more options | 06:41 |
| markers | Myrtti: thats what im saying. thanks for the help Myrtti | 06:41 |
| Myrtti | c-ron: I'm trying to explain this to you so you don't run into trouble | 06:41 |
| c-ron | Madpilot, agreed. I'll stop. | 06:41 |

| Cpudan80 | mike_: hrm so much for my idea then | 06:42 |
| SeaPhor | White^Knight, do you see now why i said what i did? | 06:42 |
| Cpudan80 | mike_: AMD has a windows tool that will allow you to overclock... | 06:42 |
| Cpudan80 | mike_: maybe intel has something similar ? | 06:42 |
| White^Knight | SeaPhor: said what? | 06:42 |
| c-ron | White^Knight, that could be a number of things..... try another app that uses GL | 06:42 |
| mike_ | Cpudan80: lol think there's an ubuntu counterpart? | 06:42 |

| termagant | Hi, I'm wondering if anybody can advise me on something. I'm trying to burn Ubuntu to a cd, but I guess it's 5 gigs too big. I've never used Windows before, so I'm sort of confused. The CD says it's 702, but also that it's 696, and Ubuntu says it is 699. IS there a way to reconcile these? | 06:43 |
| Myrtti | markers: that's how I started | 06:43 |
| mike_ | Cpudan80: i guess ill take a look around | 06:43 |
| termagant | Thanks. | 06:43 |
| LSD|Ninja | Why the hell do you want to overclock a laptop? And a P4-based one at that? | 06:43 |
| Cpudan80 | mike_: FYI P4s run very hot -- be careful when you crank them up | 06:43 |
| SeaPhor | White^Knight, nothing, watch yourself, be careful | 06:43 |
| Myrtti | markers: now, after three years I work in an open source software development company, working from home | 06:43 |
| LSD|Ninja | If anything, you want to _underclock_ those | 06:43 |
| c-ron | Myrtti, anyone using IRC is already in trouble :P | 06:43 |
| david__-- | opethian:still saying that the interface doesnt exist | 06:43 |
| Cpudan80 | Gah! | 06:43 |
| Myrtti | markers: stick around and you'll learn new things | 06:43 |
| Cpudan80 | A laptop! | 06:43 |
| White^Knight | SeaPhor: about using envyng? | 06:43 |
| david__-- | it was working perfect,i dont see why it quit | 06:43 |
| Cpudan80 | No don't overclock a laptop! Good grief you wont be able to put it on your lap | 06:44 |
| hotmonkeyluv | is there a difference between grub and lilo's OS-finding abilities when you install them | 06:44 |
| Opethian | david__--: Which card is it? | 06:44 |
| david__-- | Opethian:the infamous broadcam | 06:44 |

| SeaPhor | White^Knight, that and the ppl selling it to you | 06:44 |
| Myrtti | c-ron: true, notes an IRC user since 1996 | 06:44 |
| Myrtti | markers: cheers | 06:44 |
| Opethian | david__--: Well you can try modprobe -r on the module, and modprobe to bring it back alive again | 06:44 |
| Myrtti | markers: have a good flight with Ubuntu Airlines | 06:45 |

| jobless | ok asking this again .. can anybody help me debug why gnome-panel hangs on me at least twice each day? I see that many people are facing the same problem with hardy | 07:29 |
| jobless | !hardy | 07:29 |
| ubottu | Hardy Heron is the codename for the current release of Ubuntu (8.04-LTS) You can get it now from http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu but please use !torrents | 07:29 |
| Kazuma | does anyone know about GRUB Error 17? I could really use some private message help or something like that | 07:29 |
| jobless | !torrents | 07:29 |
| ubottu | 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.

| Kazuma | grub is STILL there | 07:33 |
| MikeCulver | I'm interested in running a fully-encrypted Ubuntu setup on a laptop. Is it possible to store the encryption keys needed at boot on a USB storage device? Would the device need to remain connected? | 07:33 |
| White^Knight | Madpilot: i've had problems in the past with sudo, but since i've switched to kubuntu, they have all pretty much been worked out :) | 07:33 |
| Kazuma | i would rather not have to format the XP disk | 07:33 |
| White^Knight | ok Anacranom :) | 07:34 |
| Kazuma | I should mention XP is on disk 1, Ubuntu disk 2, and disk 3 is just storage | 07:34 |
| MikeCulver | Kazuma: do you mean 'fdisk /mbr'? | 07:34 |
| Shdwstar | Kazuma did u fdisk /mbr? | 07:34 |
| Shdwstar | jinx | 07:34 |
| Kazuma | Shdwstar: yes | 07:34 |

| MikeCulver | ah | 07:35 |
| Kazuma | i would love to be able to boot into Ubuntu though | 07:35 |

| 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) | 07:35 |
| MikeCulver | Kazuma: oh.. i guess I got here in the middle of that then | 07:35 |
| MikeCulver | Kazuma: why can't you boot Ubuntu? | 07:36 |
| Shdwstar | so tell me guys, whats the secret command to make ubuntu installer goto /hdb1/ubuntu8.iso | 07:36 |

| dts | I'm trying to browse a SMB share on another computer but gnome never asks for the username or password | 07:37 |
| Kazuma | yes, booted off it | 07:37 |

| robert__ | any body play et and can help with sound that will grate | 07:38 |
| MikeCulver | Kazuma: something about HDD access mode in your bios | 07:38 |
| buntu | jobless: is that the third party repositories? | 07:38 |
| MikeCulver | Kazuma: have you looked into that? | 07:38 |
| MikeCulver | Kazuma: and is this a desktop or laptop? | 07:38 |
| Kazuma | MikeCulver: everything shows up correctly, linux shows the HDs listed correctly | 07:39 |
| Kazuma | desktop | 07:39 |
| jobless | buntu under ubuntu software tab .. there is a check box .. uncheck that .. | 07:39 |

| Anacranom | !envy || White^Knight | 07:39 |
| ubottu | | White^Knight: 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. | 07:39 |
| MikeCulver | Kazuma: but grub isn't ubuntu.. it doesn't have the intelligence to handle as diverse of hardware.. grub needs things to be simple. Error 17 points to a problem addressing the disk grub resides on | 07:39 |
| jobless | buntu .. system->administration->software sources | 07:40 |
| buntu | jobless: if i uncheck it it will change the repositores settings right? | 07:40 |
| Kazuma | grub resides on the XP disk i guess | 07:40 |
| Kazuma | but should boot the Ubuntu one | 07:40 |
| MikeCulver | Kazuma: are the OS's on two different physical drives? | 07:40 |

| ubottu | robert__: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 07:43 |

This is all sporadic, but seemingly happening more often. | 07:44 |

| ubottu | checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | 07:53 |

| Pegasos989 | Heya. I'm going to buy a new desk computer in a few days (custom built naturally) and was just wondering if there are any Ubuntu/Linux related driver issues. Such as any specific brands to avoid or favor in graphics card, sound card, etc. | 08:04 |
| jobless | !ati | 08:04 |

| buntu | HELLO GUYS HOW TO USE BUILD-essential | 08:05 |
| White^Knight | nikoboy: have u looked at ur shortcut key setups yet? | 08:05 |
| fbthpg | pegasos, also check wireless cards | 08:05 |
| nikoboy | no | 08:05 |
| nikoboy | where is that? | 08:05 |
| Flannel | buntu: What are you trying to do? | 08:05 |
| wols_ | buntu: you can't, build essential is a meta package | 08:05 |
| wols_ | Pegasos989: intel or amd? | 08:05 |
| Bodsda | buntu, build-essential is a packagge including usefull things for building from source,. you dont 'use' build-essential | 08:05 |
| White^Knight | nikoboy: i run kde, so for me it is in the System Settings | 08:05 |
| wols_ | White^Knight: glxinfo | 08:06 |
| buntu | Bodsda: so i have to use check install? | 08:06 |
| yit41 | why is my amarok doesnt produce any sound after i played something from youtube? | 08:06 |
| wols_ | White^Knight: also: dpkg -l |grep nvidia | 08:06 |
| LSD|Ninja | Pegasos989: For video, nVidia is probably the still the best choice right now. As for sound, integrated audio on most boards is well supported. For wireless, Atheros=based cards are probably the best bet. And for motherboards/chipsets, Intel is usually the safe bet. Just watch out for the secodary PATA controllers on modern Intel-based boards, go SATA if you can | 08:06 |
| Bodsda | buntu, what are you trying to do? | 08:06 |
| nikoboy | ok im in | 08:06 |
| Flannel | buntu: build-essential is used during checkinstall, and yes, checkinstall is the recommended method | 08:06 |
| nikoboy | on shortcut key setups | 08:06 |
| buntu | Bodsda: installing the software | 08:06 |
| Bodsda | yit41, dunno -- run it from terminal to check for errors though | 08:06 |
| === narg_ is now known as narg | ||
| wols_ | buntu: which software exactly? | 08:06 |
| nikoboy | how do I add fn functions then? | 08:06 |
| buntu | Flannel: how to use the checkinstall | 08:07 |
| Pegasos989 | wols_: haven't quite decided yet. I know little about hardware so I concidered to just walking into shop and telling them about what kind of a computer (price, use, etc.) I want and let them help with the details. As such, it would be useful to know beforehand of any major issues... | 08:07 |
| Flannel | !checkinstall | buntu | 08:07 |
| ubottu | buntu: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running! | 08:07 |
| yit41 | Bodsda: how do i run it from terminal? | 08:07 |
| Bodsda | buntu, install software with apt or synaptic -- building from source is a different matter, what EXACTLY are you try to do? | 08:07 |
| White^Knight | wols_: u want those as separate posts, or added onto the one i already have? | 08:07 |
| Bodsda | yit41, i'd assume amarok | 08:07 |
| eXtigy | What is the difference between the aptitude and apt-get? | 08:07 |
| Pegasos989 | LSD|Ninja: thanks | 08:07 |
| White^Knight | eXtigy: looks | 08:07 |
| Bodsda | Flannel, so it just adds it to synaptic for easy removal? check install | 08:08 |
| montpelie | but dd | 08:08 |
| White^Knight | eXtigy: aptitude uses get-apt as it's front end ;) | 08:08 |
| montpelie | if and of | 08:08 |
| wols_ | Pegasos989: get a intel cpu, intel P35 chipset, nvidia vid | 08:08 |
| Flannel | Bodsda: Yeah, it creates a deb package so you can remove it later | 08:08 |
| Bodsda | eXtigy, not much | 08:08 |
| montpelie | dont work that way ah | 08:08 |
| Flannel | White^Knight: that's not true, almost backwards, but not quite | 08:08 |
| buntu | Bodsda: i am now at the directory and there are option what should i do first the configure or the install? | 08:08 |
| Bodsda | Flannel, but you can just delete the source ?? isnt that just as easy? | 08:08 |
| Bodsda | buntu, ./configure make sudo check install | 08:09 |
| Flannel | Bodsda: deleting the source won't remove the compiled stuff | 08:09 |
| White^Knight | well, i know one uses the other :D | 08:09 |
| montpelie | hey checkinstall, what is that for | 08:09 |
| White^Knight | i may be confused tho :) | 08:09 |
| nikoboy | WhiteKnight there is no help for me on the shortcuts.. what i mean is that all the fn functions.. on the top of my laptop keyboard use to work before.. a lot of important functions as my screen light | 08:09 |
| eXtigy | White^Knight: And Synaptic, Update Manager, Add/Remove Programs?? | 08:09 |
| montpelie | is it for creating deb packages | 08:09 |
| montpelie | ??? | 08:09 |
| Bodsda | Flannel, ah,. thats where my knowledge is lacking -- cheers was tryin to work out why makin it a deb was usefull -- cheers dude | 08:09 |
| Flannel | White^Knight: no, they both use a common underlying library, neither uses the other | 08:09 |
| nikoboy | i wonder how can I turn on the fn functions since this are very important for me | 08:09 |
| whuut | please someone help me, i installed vista and now i can boot ubuntu, how do you fix this? i'm on ubuntu live cd now | 08:09 |
| Bodsda | whuut, do you mean 'cant' boot? | 08:10 |

| Bodsda | buntu, have you installed build-essential ? | 08:10 |

| montpelie | why not? | 08:12 |
| mudd`Hossam | hello, i am having difficuly finding the command that enables the auto-complete function in ubuntu server? | 08:12 |
| Flannel | dj_hamsta: Assuming you haven't changed any of the configuration stuffs, are you sure its the same machine? | 08:12 |
| void^ | buntu: what are you trying to compile? | 08:12 |
| dj_hamsta | oh crap | 08:12 |
| mudd`Hossam | auto-complete as in i hit tab on the keyboard and it guesses the command dependent on the files in the folders | 08:12 |
| montpelie | installingwindows after linux doesnt modify the grub conf file | 08:12 |
| buntu | Bodsda: or my file is corrupt? is it possible? | 08:13 |
| Bodsda | montpelie, you have to set it to root on the correct partition,. after the line -- grub -- you do -- find /boot/grub/stage1 the output will be like hd(0,1) then you do root hd(0,1) then the rest of your stuff | 08:13 |
| montpelie | oh I see, the windows partition should be appended to the conf file | 08:13 |
| Bodsda | buntu, sounds like build-essential isnt working -- make sure correct permissions apply on this folder aswell | 08:13 |
| dj_hamsta | hahaha!! thank you Flannel> | 08:13 |
| jobless | ok guys .. once more .. my gnome panels do not respond at least twice each day. I need to restart X to get them working. Can anybody help me debug this? | 08:13 |
| jobless | !x | 08:13 |
| 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 | 08:13 |
| montpelie | mmm ok | 08:14 |
| Flannel | buntu: What are you trying to install? | 08:14 |
| whuut | i used te command: find /boot/grub/stage1, the output is: (hd0,0), what do i type to root ( ) command? | 08:14 |
| montpelie | that worked for me | 08:14 |
| dj_hamsta | i just remembered i install SSH on my windows machine as well and DMZ is set to that one | 08:14 |
| wols_ | White^Knight: since the drivers seem to work it's probably a GL library issue | 08:14 |
| White^Knight | wols_: ok here are those other two command outputs: http://paste.ubuntu.com/12382/ | 08:14 |
| Bodsda | whuut, type root hd(0,0) | 08:14 |
| montpelie | the process I just mentioned | 08:14 |
| Flannel | mudd`Hossam: check your .bashrc | 08:14 |
| buntu | Bodsda: i use the synaptic to install the build-essential | 08:14 |
| wols_ | Bodsda: build-essential is a metapackage, it has no files | 08:14 |
| ubud | !xsane | 08:14 |

| White^Knight | wols_: ok | 08:14 |
| Flannel | mudd`Hossam: ~/.bashrc yes | 08:14 |
| Bodsda | wols_, metapackage=??? | 08:15 |
| Flannel | !metapackage | Bodsda | 08:15 |
| ubottu | Bodsda: A meta-package is a package that simply depends upon other packages and brings them in. It's not a real package, but a very useful package that can drag in other package versions. | 08:15 |
| wols_ | White^Knight: 3D works. maybe the screensaver itself is borked? tried other 3D apps? games maybe? tuxracer? | 08:15 |

Please take it to #ubuntu-offtopic: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 08:27 |
| Kazuma | MikeCulver: how? | 08:27 |
| DracoZA | Bodsda, ok let me clarify some more, virtual box 1.6.0 is available for download from their site bit version 1.5.6 is still listed in the repos, how can I find out when 1.6.0 will be in the repos ? | 08:27 |
| Kazuma | MikeCulver: I have attempted installing grub many times from the Live CD | 08:27 |
| Jburrke | Wow.. lmfao | 08:27 |
| hccmb | wols : so i am stuck there..cant compile the rt2570 wireless drivers | 08:27 |
| Super400 | HI all | 08:27 |
| Kazuma | and none have worked so far | 08:27 |
| wols_ | DracoZA: for the LAST time: when a new ubuntu comes out. NOT before | 08:27 |
| jobless | nikoboy .. it should be on by default .. try xgamma -gamma 0.75 in a terminal | 08:27 |
| Bodsda | DracoZA, if it is deemed safe by the ubuntu devs then it will be added upon the release of intrepid | 08:27 |
| wols_ | hccmb: m-a prepare | 08:27 |
| MikeCulver | wols_: how do you properly install grub? | 08:27 |
| Jburrke | GibbaTheHutt: Are you in the off topic channel? | 08:27 |
| jobless | maybe that can reduce your brightness | 08:27 |
| DracoZA | wols_, get some sleep :) | 08:28 |
| wols_ | MikeCulver: several ways, by running grub as root, with grub-install, etc | 08:28 |
| DracoZA | Bodsda, ok thanks | 08:28 |
| Kazuma | MikeCulver: I tried grub, grub-install, update-grub | 08:28 |
| Kazuma | all those have failed so far | 08:28 |
| ^ALEX^^ | good evenng y'all | 08:28 |
| hccmb | wols : say's all is okey, | 08:28 |
| Bodsda | DracoZA, no probs -- in some cases you can add repositories of third party files yourself -- but this is your risk | 08:28 |
| MikeCulver | Kazuma: did the installs themselves fail? | 08:28 |
| hccmb | but still the error when compiling | 08:28 |
| Kazuma | MikeCulver: no, it said they succeeded | 08:28 |
| wols_ | Kazuma: you need to install grub to hd1 and make sure your device.map is alright | 08:29 |
| a_ok | what is the variable $OPTIONS in the initscripts? | 08:29 |
| Kazuma | but upon reboot, nada | 08:29 |
| MikeCulver | Kazuma: I agree with wols | 08:29 |
| nikoboy | jobless: http://pastebin.com/m6426deb1 | 08:29 |
| hccmb | wols : are you running 8.04? | 08:29 |
| Kazuma | wols_: : would appreciate knowing how to do that | 08:29 |
| DracoZA | Bodsda, nod but I prefer to install only from the normal repos otherwise I just end up breaking things | 08:29 |
| MikeCulver | Kazuma: /boot/grub/device.map | 08:29 |
| Bodsda | DracoZA, fair comment ;~) | 08:29 |

| jobless | nikoboy type this .. "xgamma -gamma 0.7" .. without the quotes if the previous one does not work .. | 08:32 |
| nikoboy | sorry i type it incorrectly this is what i got: | 08:32 |
| nikoboy | -> Red 1.000, Green 1.000, Blue 1.000 | 08:32 |

| European-African | bazhang: does restricted drivers manager do a better job than envy or the same? | 08:57 |
| willwork4foo | that's not my email address - I've never seen it before | 08:57 |
| wols_ | European-African: envy is not supported at all | 08:57 |
| bazhang | European-African, envy in gutsy is not supported here | 08:57 |
| wols_ | willwork4foo: then check where it'S metnioned in the files and change it | 08:57 |

| Kasra_ubuntu | afief: Ok!I have rad that but it can't solve my problem! | 08:59 |
| European-African | bazhang: restricted drivers manager, will it install nvidia 8500 gt so it will be utilized fully? | 08:59 |
| Kasra_ubuntu | *read | 08:59 |
| xkcd | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick <-- When I follow these instructons with a 4 GB USB drive and Ubuntu 8.04, I just get "operating system not found" when booting from the thumb drive. I formatted the thumbdrive with fat16, and I've booted from bootable USB drives on this machine before. | 09:00 |
| Kasra_ubuntu | afief: I want to connect my laptop to my PC with wifi! | 09:00 |
| bazhang | European-African, it should do; dont have that card so cannot say from personal experience | 09:00 |
| xkcd | Is there anything that's changed with 8.04 that would make those instructions invalid? | 09:00 |
| MrPocknix | command to rename folder? | 09:00 |
| afief | Kasra_ubuntu, I can't help you... no wifi here to try and I never did it | 09:00 |

| Bodsda | lamalex, do you want help with the grub error ? | 09:01 |
| European-African | bazhang: how do I use the tv out on the card, does rdm install a utility to do this? | 09:01 |
| rhydar__ | -r recursive might be needed. | 09:01 |
| LSD|Ninja | European-African: The control panel is a seperate install iirc, look in synaptic for it | 09:01 |

| boomshakalaka | anyone else have the problem where the screen grays out on active applications? | 09:05 |
| pvh_sa|wrk | boomshakalaka, yes | 09:06 |
| LSD|Ninja | boomshakalaka: that means the app has stopped responding | 09:06 |
| pvh_sa|wrk | boomshakalaka, its a compiz thing. any application which is "not responding" gets greyed out. often this means your computer can't keep up... | 09:06 |
| LSD|Ninja | boomshakalaka: sometimes it'll come good, sometimes you have to Force Quit | 09:06 |

| Kasra_ubuntu | nikoboy: Hi | 09:06 |

| nikoboy | the lower kernel and everything back | 09:07 |
| nikoboy | to normallity | 09:07 |
| boomshakalaka | this has to be a bug then because my computer keeps up fine | 09:07 |
| nikoboy | i wonder why | 09:07 |
| CrummyGummy | Hi all, I'm trying to setup nvidia binary drivers on Hardy. I've been doing this unsucessfully for the whole week. I've used envyng, apt-get install nvidia-glx-new and still no luck. My next move is to install using the nvidia installer but I don;t really want to do the. Any ideas how to do this? | 09:07 |
| mgolisch | Chapai: PasswordAuthentication no | 09:07 |
| mgolisch | i guess | 09:07 |
| boomshakalaka | pvh_sa|wrk: this happens with apps that are still working | 09:08 |
| Darth_Gimp | in hardy, how do I set up the 3d cube display? | 09:08 |
| linsejko | Can anyone help me install this tarball? It has no config file, among other weird qualities... it's technically a 'unix' install, but I assume that means all unix systems. Link: http://foundationstone.com.au/HtmlSupport/FrameSupport/registerCGIFrame.html | 09:08 |
| DracoZA | Why do I get this message when I try and share a folder ?: 'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare: cannot open usershare directory /var/lib/samba/usershares. Error Permission denied | 09:08 |
| Chapai | you need to install compiz Darth_Gimp | 09:08 |
| cypha | i'm having lots of trouble setting up ubuntu to work properly | 09:08 |
| cypha | someone mind helping a newb? | 09:08 |
| Darth_Gimp | ok | 09:08 |
| Darth_Gimp | synaptic yes? | 09:08 |
| Chapai | mgolisch:- i have been looking through the option, cant believe i did not see it | 09:08 |
| CAH | he... | 09:09 |
| rhydar__ | Crummy, I think that you need to log in to the terminal first. X windows needs to be stopped before installing video driver | 09:09 |
| linsejko | Can anyone help me install an odd tarball that I can't seem to get working? | 09:09 |
| cypha | i just installed some nvidia driver glx-new or whatever, and it asked me to restart | 09:09 |
| DracoZA | whats the problem cypha ? | 09:09 |
| cypha | so i restarted, and now my resolution is all messed up | 09:09 |
| Chapai | yes, Darth_Gimp | 09:09 |
| CAH | hhhhhh | 09:09 |
| boomshakalaka | LSD|Ninja: that sounds kind of wierd is this a known bug? | 09:09 |
| mgolisch | linsejko: doesnt it have a readme or install text file? | 09:09 |
| Darth_Gimp | Chapai: it says its already installed | 09:09 |
| CrummyGummy | Well it doesn't start xserver at all. | 09:09 |
| linsejko | No, that's the weird thing. | 09:09 |
| cypha | ...i had selected to use some animation or something in the Appearance settings of ubuntu | 09:09 |
| mgolisch | linsejko: i dont want to download stuff one has to register for | 09:09 |
| linsejko | mgolisch, | 09:09 |
| cypha | so it downloaded/installed some driver | 09:10 |
| fanch_ | hi | 09:10 |
| dda | if I install firefox3 in gutsy (using apt-get install firefox-3.0) - will it keep firefox2? | 09:10 |
| linsejko | Use my email, | 09:10 |
| linsejko | it allows using the same email twice. | 09:10 |
| pvh_sa|wrk | boomshakalaka, yes they will be "still working".. do they go grey for a while and then "un-grey" ? | 09:10 |
| linsejko | msolisch, using lacking.latin[(a_t)]gmail.com | 09:10 |
| Chapai | are you using gnome or kde Darth_Gimp | 09:10 |
| LSD|Ninja | boomshakalaka: It's a timeout-based thing, if an app doesn't appear to be responding within a certain time period compiz will make them grey. As soon as they start responding again, they'll get restored | 09:10 |
| Darth_Gimp | Chapai: Gnome | 09:10 |
| boomshakalaka | pvh_sa|wrk: they will grey out....keep working and finish but not ungrey | 09:10 |
| pvh_sa|wrk | boomshakalaka, you might want to run "vmstat 1" in a terminal window to keep an eye on what apps are blocking for... | 09:10 |
| fanch_ | i'm trying to burn a cd with brasero but it doesn't work... it says that i need to use a blank cd (which i actually did...) | 09:11 |
| fanch_ | anyone has an idea? | 09:11 |
| pvh_sa|wrk | boomshakalaka, so look at the 1st colum. that's waiting for cpu. the 2nd column is waiting for I/O... | 09:11 |
| Chapai | do you have extra visual effects enabled Darth_Gimp | 09:11 |
| Darth_Gimp | Chapai: yes | 09:11 |
| LSD|Ninja | If they aren't un-greying when teh apps starts responding again then that is a proble, yes | 09:12 |
| linsejko | mgolisch, does that mean it's ano? | 09:12 |
| cypha | can someone help me fix my resolution?? | 09:12 |
| cypha | please | 09:12 |
| bazhang | cypha which card | 09:12 |
| freshkangkong | hello room | 09:12 |
| cypha | the proper resolution option isn't available in "Screen Resolution" | 09:12 |
| cypha | nvidia | 09:12 |
| mgolisch | linsejko: ill look at it,moment | 09:12 |
| bazhang | !nvidia | cypha | 09:13 |
| ubottu | cypha: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 09:13 |
| linsejko | mgolisch, thanks. | 09:13 |
| cypha | i just downloaded the drivers, because i tried enabling the "medium effects" for appearance | 09:13 |
| cypha | and it downloaded nvidia-glx | 09:13 |
| MatBoy | does autoremove can usethe option --purge ? | 09:13 |
| Chapai | click system preference and click advance desktop effects...... Darth_Gimp | 09:13 |
| LSD|Ninja | cypha: The Screen Resolution panel in the preferences section of the System menu is worse than useless. 7.10 had a nice one with more options but it's been dropped from the look of things. | 09:13 |
| === yacc_ is now known as yacc | ||
| Darth_Gimp | sweet thanks! | 09:13 |
| Darth_Gimp | brb | 09:13 |
| cypha | LSD|Ninja: why would they do taht? | 09:13 |
| DracoZA | cypha maybe enable nvidia restricted drivers ? System - Administration - Hardware Drivers ? | 09:14 |
| boomshakalaka | LSD|Ninja: the screen grays for the password while opening synaptic...then it's like it doesn't refresh the screen while it's working | 09:14 |
| cypha | yes | 09:14 |
| LSD|Ninja | boomshakalaka: you mean it greys *around* the password window? That's normal | 09:14 |
| cypha | i did that dracoZA | 09:14 |
| CrummyGummy | DracoZA: Do you know what the direct link for that is? | 09:14 |
| LSD|Ninja | cypha: I dunno, it's one of many things that annoy me about 8.04 | 09:14 |
| boomshakalaka | LSD|Ninja: yes but then it doesn't refresh after while synaptic runs | 09:14 |
| cypha | shoot, i can't even scroll since i updated the nvidia driver | 09:15 |
| cypha | what gives | 09:15 |
| fanch_ | I can't join ubuntu-fr... anyone knows why ? | 09:15 |
| LSD|Ninja | boomshakalaka: so after you enter the password, synaptic runs normally but the screen doesn't brighten back up again? | 09:15 |
| bazhang | fanch /j #ubuntu-fr | 09:15 |
| DracoZA | cypha and its ticked as enabled ? | 09:15 |
| boomshakalaka | LSD|Ninja: yes | 09:15 |
| fanch_ | bazhang: that's what i did (several times) but nothing happens | 09:16 |
| yrjokin | hi there - does anyone know if Gutsy has support for Lexmark (all in one) please | 09:16 |
| linsejko | mgolisch, just letting you know I'm still here. | 09:16 |
| cypha | is what ticked as enabled? | 09:16 |
| cypha | draco | 09:16 |
| bazhang | fanch then /j #ubuntu-irc | 09:16 |
| Chapai | youtube does not accept ogg videos, what is a good converter? | 09:16 |
| Gin | flash 10 rocks. I recommend every one to try it out. it cuts the cpu usage from 70% to 20% :-) | 09:16 |
| DracoZA | cypha under hardware drivers do you have nvidia listed ? | 09:17 |
| leonbrussels | yrjokin: You can google <yourmodilnumber> ubuntu | 09:17 |
| mgolisch | linsejko: i guess you just extract that thing somewhere and start foundationStone.sh | 09:17 |
| boomshakalaka | LSD|Ninja: the screen will whiten back if I open firefox full screen | 09:17 |
| yrjokin | leonbrussels: ok | 09:17 |
| linsejko | mgolisch, I tried that. | 09:17 |
| linsejko | :\ | 09:17 |
| cypha | where can i see the hardware drivers list? | 09:17 |
| fanch_ | bazhang: apparently i've been banned from that channel, according to server information | 09:17 |
| fanch_ | but i don't know why | 09:18 |
| cypha | oh | 09:18 |
| cypha | i see it | 09:18 |
| cypha | yes | 09:18 |
| cypha | it's there | 09:18 |
| FloodBot2 | cypha: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 09:18 |
| mgolisch | linsejko: and? what error do you get? | 09:18 |
| bazhang | fanch then join the channel #ubuntu-irc | 09:18 |
| fanch_ | I never said or did anything there... | 09:18 |
| cypha | "nvidia accelerated graphics driver (latest cards)" | 09:18 |
| linsejko | mgolisch, pwd is /home/kajo/Desktop/tars/FoundationStone_3.0_Unix | 09:18 |
| linsejko | ./foundationStone.sh: line 22: java: command not found | 09:18 |
| fanch_ | ok, thanks bazhang | 09:18 |
| LSD|Ninja | cypha: there used to be a hardware list applet too. That also got dropped but I'm less anoyed with that since it was pretty shicking anyway. | 09:18 |
| mgolisch | linsejko: you need to install a java runtime environment | 09:19 |
| cypha | it's a proprietary driver | 09:19 |
| MrPocknix_ | man I still cant access my windows shared folder in Ubuntu | 09:19 |
| mgolisch | linsejko: the sun jre might be best | 09:19 |
| cypha | LSD|Ninja, DracoZA, any idea what i should do? | 09:20 |
| linsejko | mgolisch, does it look like it should work otherwise? | 09:20 |
| linsejko | Is that a particularly weird application setup, or is this normal just not as common? | 09:20 |
| mgolisch | linsejko: its written in java it wont work without a java runtime environemtn installed | 09:20 |
| babola1 | im trying to /msg ubottu. he's not answering :( | 09:20 |
| mgolisch | just install the sun jre package | 09:20 |
| mgolisch | search in synamptic | 09:21 |
| mgolisch | synaptic | 09:21 |
| linsejko | mgolisch, I'm pretty sure I have a jre... | 09:21 |
| linsejko | and that it is sun. | 09:21 |
| boomshakalaka | LSD|Ninja: I'm also wondering how these apps could not be responding. I'm not running anything intensive on this 2ghz machine with a gig of ram | 09:21 |
| Aku | xtc | 09:22 |
| linsejko | mgolisch, how do I tell if I have jre/ what do I do to install it? | 09:22 |
| babola1 | linsejko: through synaptic. use the search function and see if the package's checkbox has green fill-up | 09:23 |
| Agnostic | Where could I download Fiesty Fawn? | 09:23 |
| cypha | okkk, i fixed my resolution | 09:23 |
| _eMaX_ | hi all | 09:23 |
| LSD|Ninja | boomshakalaka: I think you're referring to a different effect. When an app is not responding, compiz will grey that app window and nothing else. The greying of teh background when it pops up a UAC - sorry - sudo prompt is something different. Either way, it should return to normal once it's not needed. Definitely sounds like a bug what you're having. Could be video-driver related, but I'm not sure | 09:24 |
| cypha | but my mouse still can't scroll | 09:24 |
| TOPSECRET | why cant ubuntu remember my WPA2 password like windows does | 09:24 |
| babola1 | Agnostic: why would you want feisty? | 09:24 |

| MrPocknix_ | sudo mount //192.168.1.101/Tunez /media/ntmnt -o username=MrPockets,password=*****, | 09:24 |
| MrPocknix_ | mount error 111 = Connection refused | 09:24 |
| MrPocknix_ | Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs) | 09:24 |
| linsejko | mgolisch, I will, but I prefer using terminal normally. | 09:24 |
| bazhang | TOPSECRET, it can; what are you doing wrong | 09:24 |
| MrPocknix_ | why would this happen ? | 09:24 |
| Agnostic | babola1, I am looking at the differences in OS. | 09:24 |
| _eMaX_ | is there a way to improve the preview in nautilus - if I want to increase like the size of a preview of PDFs, I can hit Ctrl+, but it doesn't render it better, just zooms in | 09:24 |
| LSD|Ninja | TOPSECRET: it saves my WPA1 password, WPA2 shjouldn't be too much different. Are you remembering to tick the "Save in keychain" bix? | 09:24 |
| Agnostic | babola1, I am attempting to look at ubuntu from its earliest stages of development. | 09:24 |
| TOPSECRET | it changes the box to wpa1 and deletes the password | 09:24 |
| boomshakalaka | LSD|Ninja: ok thx | 09:24 |
| TOPSECRET | there is no save in keychain box | 09:25 |
| Wallgod | Hi All, Is there some way I can make an application in Ubuntu full screen? This was pretty straight forward in Kubuntu | 09:25 |
| rhydar__ | Wallgod f11 usually works | 09:25 |
| TOPSECRET | i go into the network panel in configuration | 09:25 |
| TOPSECRET | *administration | 09:26 |
| babola1 | Agnostic: oh. Google might help. just a tip, every release, there's a ReleaseNote. Check each one | 09:26 |
| Wallgod | rhydar__, isnt that only for firefox? for example it did not work in the XChat window | 09:26 |
| Agnostic | I was hoping someone in here would know where to get the earlier versions. | 09:26 |
| dppd | i want to update from 6.06 LTS to 8.04LTS. I followed the guidelines on the upgrade page but i dont get the question.... Any suggestions??? | 09:26 |

| babola1 | Agnostic: you mean you want the actual installation files? | 09:27 |
| Frostex | Hi there, i am looking for somebody that can help me 1-1 set up samba, im having difficulty (and yes i have searched web guides first) | 09:27 |
| Agnostic | babola1, Yes. I want to install the early versions of ubuntu on my old system. | 09:27 |
| babola1 | Agnostic: here, then -->www.old-releases.ubuntu.com/releases/ | 09:27 |
| bazhang | Frostex, best place for that is #samba | 09:27 |
| LSD|Ninja | dppd: when a new release is available then update manager should tell you as much | 09:27 |
| Agnostic | babola1, Okay thank you. | 09:27 |

| dppd | LSD|Ninja: It doesn't... ;-( | 09:28 |

| linsejko | mgolisch, downloading jre... | 09:28 |
| TOPSECRET | why cant ubuntu remember my WPA2 password like windows does | 09:28 |
| bazhang | !screencast | ari_stress | 09:28 |
| ubottu | ari_stress: Some programs to capture your screen are recordmydesktop, Istanbul, Wink, Gvidcap, Xvidcap, vnc2swf, demorecorder. Also see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ScreenCasts. | 09:28 |
| LSD|Ninja | TOPSECRET: you asked that like five minutes ago | 09:28 |
| Wallgod | How to make a app window like for eg. GEdit full screen in Ubuntu | 09:29 |
| bazhang | TOPSECRET, set it in the command line | 09:29 |
| TOPSECRET | then it would remember | 09:29 |
| TOPSECRET | ? | 09:29 |
| janMD | TOPSECRET: hidden SSID? | 09:29 |
| Patrick8 | Am I correct in understanding that Debian's openssh vulnerability requires an attacker to first have a copy of a users public key ? | 09:29 |
| Agnostic | Anybody in here famaliar with DVDFab? | 09:29 |
| TOPSECRET | it is open SSID | 09:29 |
| bazhang | TOPSECRET, set in cli; it will be SET | 09:30 |
| TOPSECRET | i change SSID between home and work and school but it doesnt remember even when i dont change | 09:30 |
| cypha | i installed an nvidia driver, and when i restarted, i can no longer scroll | 09:31 |

| dppd | bazhang: looked at the page but did not spot 6.06 2 8.04....! | 09:34 |
| cypha | do i have to type something before it? | 09:34 |
| cypha | like sudo or something | 09:34 |
| dpowerd | you jsut want to view it? | 09:34 |
| dpowerd | or edit it? | 09:34 |
| babola1 | bloops: in a terminal, do: plog | 09:35 |
| cypha | well, my mouse scroll isn't working | 09:35 |
| Chapai | if you want view it nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 09:35 |
| linsejko | mgolisch, it works, thanks. I feel silly for it just being that. | 09:35 |
| rhydar__ | sudo vim /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 09:35 |
| cypha | it was just a few moments ago | 09:35 |
| bloops | There's a checkbox next to ppp connection in network manager. I have set the details. But when I check/uncheck the checkbox it goes back to its original state | 09:35 |
| zamba | what does it mean that uptime is displayed with a '!' in? | 09:35 |
| zamba | it says here: Uptime: 180 days(!) | 09:35 |
| cypha | until i installed some nvidia driver | 09:35 |
| linsejko | mgolisch, and everyone! I was never able to get this app to work properly on windows, but here on linux it was a small matter. :D | 09:35 |
| cypha | i have no idea what the 2 have to do with each other | 09:35 |
| bazhang | http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading dppd from a link on the page I gave you | 09:35 |
| linsejko | thank you all. | 09:35 |
| mgolisch | linsejko: np | 09:35 |
| dpowerd | cypha, is the driver otherwise working properly? | 09:35 |
| babola1 | bloops: have you done sudo pppconf? | 09:35 |
| abadd0n_ | is there an emulator like ndiswrapper to use osx drivers instead of windows drivers (for example a broadcom 4328 chipset) because, honestly, the windows driver sucks ass | 09:36 |
| cypha | dpowerd: well, i can't get the dual display to work either | 09:36 |
| dpowerd | have you tried envy? | 09:36 |
| cypha | what's envy? | 09:36 |
| dpowerd | its really wonderful imo | 09:36 |
| dppd | bazhang: ok... i tried this one but it does not work... | 09:36 |
| LSD|Ninja | abadd0n_: best solution for broadcrap is replacement | 09:36 |
| bazhang | !envy | dpowerd | 09:36 |
| ubottu | dpowerd: 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. | 09:36 |
| cypha | still don't know what it is | 09:36 |
| Chapai | that does not help | 09:36 |
| cypha | updated version of a package? | 09:37 |
| abadd0n_ | LSD|Ninja, 1. why? 2. not really an option on my airport extreme card | 09:37 |
| cypha | what is that | 09:37 |
| dpowerd | cypha, http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html | 09:37 |
| cypha | what is that package | 09:37 |
| Chapai | its a driver for nvidia and ati graphics cards cypha | 09:37 |
| dpowerd | uninstall your nvidia drivers and do them through envy | 09:37 |
| cypha | ohh | 09:37 |
| bloops | babola1: plog reports it as connected. Primary DNS, Secondary DNS etc. I connected using pon. | 09:37 |
| dpowerd | i ahd my dual monitors up and running in no time flat | 09:37 |
| LSD|Ninja | abadd0n_: Broadcom wireless is irredeemably shite, no matter what OS you run | 09:37 |
| bloops | But I want to do it from network manager, or another gui. | 09:37 |
| babola1 | and your PPP connection in NetMan still is unchecked? | 09:37 |
| dpowerd | i dont really enjoy editing xorg.conf manually :p | 09:37 |
| bazhang | dppd, what was the exact command you gave | 09:37 |
| cypha | dpowerd: how do i uninstall my drivers? | 09:37 |
| dppd | When i press Alt-F2 and type gksu "update-manager -d" nothing happens ;-( | 09:37 |
| * LSD|Ninja is lucky he got his MacBook while they were still using Atheros chips | 09:38 | |
| babola1 | bloops: and your PPP connection in NetMan still is unchecked? | 09:38 |
| bloops | babola1: No. Its checked. It reports the status correctly. | 09:38 |
| dpowerd | i think you can actually uninstall them with envy, then install | 09:38 |
| bloops | But I cannot uncheck it. | 09:38 |
| bloops | Or check it when its connected. | 09:38 |
| babola1 | bloops: then what is your questin? | 09:38 |
| babola1 | *question | 09:38 |
| dpowerd | yes you can | 09:38 |
| bazhang | dppd, you checked that dapper-updates was enabled or not | 09:39 |
| bloops | Can I do the connecteion/disconnection without using pon/poff? | 09:39 |
| dppd | bazhang: how do i check this? | 09:39 |
| Chapai | ppl still use dapper? | 09:39 |
| cypha | dpowerd: will it ask me? | 09:39 |
| abadd0n_ | LSD|Ninja, actually in osx it's pretty good, but i'll take your argument as a mere insult towards the hardware, which, by the way, is not of any help to me | 09:39 |
| dppd | bazhang: by running the update manager? | 09:39 |
| dpowerd | cypha, yes | 09:39 |
| babola1 | bloops: NetMan should remember your previous settings so that you won't have to dial again. you still need to dial before you can connect *every* startup? | 09:39 |
| yit41 | help! i cant mount my drive all of sudden | 09:39 |
| bazhang | abadd0n_, please tone it down | 09:40 |
| cypha | what's the difference between terminal and konsole? | 09:40 |
| dpowerd | cypha, if you are using kubuntu make sure to grab the right envy version | 09:40 |
| bloops | babola1: yes. | 09:40 |
| rhydar__ | konsole is the KDE terminal ... | 09:40 |
| cypha | i have ubuntu | 09:40 |
| cypha | sudo apt-get install envyng-gtk | 09:40 |
| cypha | ? | 09:40 |
| LSD|Ninja | abadd0n_: you're like the 3rd person in here today who's complaining about Broadcrap, people are in here all the time complaining about it and my sister had a braodcrap card in her laptop that I replaced with an Intel over hte weekend because it was so bad | 09:40 |
| rhydar__ | terminal is the xfce terminal ... | 09:40 |
| babola1 | well, that's odd. How did you set up your connection? sudo pppconf? | 09:40 |
| dpowerd | cypha, just follow the guide in the link i posted | 09:41 |
| cypha | k | 09:41 |
| dpowerd | looks correct though | 09:41 |
| LSD|Ninja | (3rd person that I've noticed that is) | 09:41 |
| babola1 | bloops: well, that's odd. How did you set up your connection? sudo pppconf? | 09:41 |
| rhydar__ | I don't think that terminal can tab windows ... | 09:41 |
| bazhang | dppd you can find synaptic? | 09:41 |
| bloops | babola1: yes. | 09:41 |
| bloops | babola1: if its disconnected in the middle, (it happens) I have to use pon too. | 09:41 |
| bloops | Cant I just use nm to do what pon, poff does? | 09:41 |
| dppd | hazhang: opened it...! | 09:41 |
| babola1 | bloops: perhaps it's an ISP issue.. | 09:42 |
| abadd0n_ | i'm not really complaining about the hardware, simply about the diffences in drivers, if linuxwireless had gotten around to m43 supporting 4328/29 chipsets yet, i'm sure it'd work just fine | 09:42 |
| cq | if a new upstream version is available, do you file a bug on the package? I'm looking at keepassx 0.2.2 vs 0.3.1 | 09:42 |
| bloops | I am asking because thats what I did in fedora. | 09:42 |
| cypha | dpowerd: it didn't ask me to uninstall the nvidia stuff | 09:42 |
| bazhang | dppd enable dapper-updates then refresh/reload | 09:42 |
| bloops | I could connect/disconnect using the gui there. | 09:42 |
| yit41 | help me to mount my drive again | 09:42 |
| dpowerd | did you open envy already? | 09:42 |
| bloops | Is it possible to replace NM? | 09:42 |
| dpowerd | there is a GUI | 09:42 |
| rhydar__ | sudo mouny -a | 09:42 |
| LSD|Ninja | abadd0n_: Is your machine as OS X/Ubuntu dual boot? Is whether the card is supported in OS X oob important to you? | 09:42 |
| rhydar__ | mount | 09:42 |
| bloops | With the one present in fedora? | 09:42 |
| rhydar__ | sorry, sudo mount -a | 09:43 |
| cypha | dpowerd: i typed sudo apt-get install envyng-gtk | 09:43 |
| cypha | and it did whatever it did | 09:43 |
| cypha | and now it's done | 09:43 |
| babola1 | !who | bloops | 09:43 |
| ubottu | bloops: 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 :) | 09:43 |
| dpowerd | cypha, now u must open it | 09:43 |
| abadd0n_ | actually a triple boot and already supportet in osx, i don't understand the second question @ LSD|Ninja | 09:43 |
| dpowerd | cypha, sudo envyng -t | 09:43 |
| dppd | bazhang: how do i enable dapper -updates? | 09:43 |
| yit41 | something went wrong with my ubuntu. it says i dont have the privilege to do so | 09:43 |
| abadd0n_ | sry, gotta run, be back | 09:43 |
| cypha | ohhh, ok, cool gui | 09:43 |
| bazhang | cypha apps-->system tools | 09:44 |
| cypha | yeah, i just found it | 09:44 |
| cypha | i was looking in system/apps | 09:44 |
| cypha | =) | 09:44 |
| dpowerd | cypha, there is also a real GUI not inside the terminal | 09:44 |
| cypha | yeah, i ran it from Applications now | 09:44 |
| bloops | babola1: can I replace NM with something else? | 09:44 |
| dpowerd | poke around under system in the main meun | 09:44 |
| dpowerd | ok | 09:44 |
| rhydar__ | yit41 | mount is a sbin command, you have to sudo to execute | 09:44 |
| yit41 | rhydar__: it says no file or such directory | 09:44 |
| microwaver | I'm experiencing a weird problem with ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy. Sometimes it is if, when I type or I alt tab or different keystrokes one of the keys 'stuck' it is just repeated over and over. any ideas what creates this problem? | 09:44 |
| LSD|Ninja | abadd0n_: afaik, the Airport Extreme card is still mini-PCIe (at least on MacBook Pro) meaning it should be to replace it with, say, the Intel n card, However, that will kill your wireless in OS X | 09:44 |
| cypha | i chose to "remove" the nvidia drivers and it's downloading something | 09:45 |
| cypha | that's so weird | 09:45 |
| cq | is there an easy way to go from kubuntu to ubuntu (and maybe back)? I'd like to try gnome | 09:45 |
| yit41 | rhydar__:but i can see my drive (named 38.8 GB Media) under Places | 09:45 |
| babola1 | bloops: im not sure. i'll go check on that. but i think Network Manager can connect/disconnect. a click on the NetMan icon, then a popup appears. Hover your cursor over "dial up connections" and it should give you options | 09:45 |
| dpowerd | cypha, best of luck to you, im gone to raid my fridge, highlight me if you have probs ;] | 09:46 |
| bazhang | dppd, is there not a software source in synaptic called dapper-updates? click to enable then refresh/reload | 09:46 |
| cypha | thanks dpowered: u've been very helpful! | 09:46 |
| rhydar__ | yit41 | sudo apt-get install mount ... maybe | 09:46 |
| bazhang | cq install ubuntu-desktop | 09:46 |
| bloops | babola1: left click on the icon has a 'Manual Configuration' dialog link. Right click has | 09:46 |
| cq | and then install kde-desktop to go back?= | 09:47 |
| cq | or how is the default wm set? | 09:47 |
| yit41 | rhydar__:what do you mean maybe? i can mount before this and i even set up my ubuntu to auto-mount my drive | 09:47 |
| rhydar__ | yit41 | is it an external drive? | 09:47 |
| stevem | Hey, I'm having difficulty deleting two directories from /mnt - see this nopaste and you'll see it looks _really_ wierd :S ... http://rafb.net/p/fuxa3B77.html | 09:47 |
| bloops | babola1: *'Enable Networking' checkbox which enables disables eth0 | 09:47 |
| bazhang | cq you have kubuntu now? then choose in login screen under sessions | 09:47 |
| yit41 | rhydar__: no, it's another partition. my XP partition. i installed my hardy via wubi | 09:47 |
| babola1 | bloops: what do you have in Network Settings, Connections tab? | 09:48 |
| dppd | bazhang: ok. i did it... but nothings changes... | 09:48 |
| cq | bazhang: yes. where is sessions? | 09:48 |
| bazhang | cq in login screen the little menu there click it | 09:48 |
| cq | is the login screen teh same for kde/gnome? | 09:48 |
| natalisushka | Hi people. I have a problem with my system that when I start it, non of the loading bar and the configuration output (starting servers, applications, checking system ...) appear. instead, I get a dim back screen with a very little light and then logs in the system normally after 3 minutes! Can anyone predict what's wrong? | 09:48 |
| yit41 | and my pidgin kept giving me Reading error when it is trying to connect to MSN | 09:49 |
| bazhang | natalisushka, with that small amount of info hard to say | 09:49 |
| bazhang | dppd, you need to refresh now | 09:49 |
| o0Chris0o | natalisushka: check your system logs | 09:50 |
| dppd | bazhang: i did... It updates all the packetinfo... | 09:50 |
| bazhang | dppd now try the command again | 09:50 |
| natalisushka | <bazhang> I believe it's a VGA driver problem. When I press Ctrl+Alt+4 to switch to command line unix-like I get very big characters, 4 in one line | 09:50 |
| rhydar__ | yit41 | if wubi is like VirtualBox, there might be some config settings to allow networking and access to other drives ... | 09:51 |
| natalisushka | <o0Chris0o> What exactly of the system log I must check? | 09:51 |
| bazhang | natalisushka, then boot in recovery mode and fix the driver issue | 09:51 |
| dppd | bazhang: Alt-F2 and type gksu "update-manager -d"?? | 09:51 |
| bazhang | dppd first close synaptic | 09:51 |
| natalisushka | <bazhang> I don't know how and what to fix! that's why I am here | 09:51 |
| dppd | bazhang: ok | 09:51 |
| bazhang | natalisushka, first boot into recovery mode | 09:51 |
| rhydar__ | natalisushka | are you using grub? | 09:52 |
| cq | bazhang: do adept, synaptic, apt-get, etc. all play nice together? or do they need to be kept in sync somehow? | 09:52 |
| natalisushka | <rhydar__> Yes | 09:52 |
| yit41 | rhydar__: well, i can see my drive, access the files in it normally before this | 09:52 |
| natalisushka | <bazhang> And then? | 09:52 |
| yit41 | rhydar__: 10 minutes ago it stopped working | 09:52 |
| Ollie_ | Hello... what do I need to install to get "dlsym" ?? | 09:52 |
| bazhang | cq adept synaptic and add/remove are front ends for apt | 09:52 |
| dppd | bazhang: nothing changes.... ;-) | 09:52 |
| tobago | is there a way to save an opened/edited gedit-file when the the kernel is standing? | 09:52 |

| tobago | i only have access to this machine via ssh from another machine. | 09:54 |
| natalisushka | <bazhang> After I login to my recovery mode, what shall I do? | 09:54 |
| rhydar__ | natalisushka | vim /boot/grub/menu.lst | 09:54 |
| natalisushka | <rhydar__> What do you want to know exactly? | 09:55 |
| Cheavera | I need a working Sun java plugin on a 64 bit system. I installed a 32bit firefox in /opt/ but i cant call any websites. I can call the local ip-adressof my router. Can someone help me out? | 09:55 |
| natalisushka | <rhydar__> Do you want me to pastebin the contents? | 09:55 |
| Myrtti | !tab | natalisushka | 09:55 |
| ubottu | natalisushka: You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 09:55 |
| bazhang | natalisushka, then we need to fix the driver issue; have you booted into safe mode yet | 09:55 |
| cypha | i just installed EnvyNG | 09:56 |
| cypha | anyone famliar with that? | 09:56 |

| ubottu | cypha: 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. | 09:56 |

| wols_ | joetheodd: old ubuntu version, sun, blackdown | 09:58 |
| bazhang | rhydar__, no sudo needed for apt-cache search | 09:59 |
| joetheodd | wols_, think I could find sun's 1.4 on an old ubuntu package browser and manually install the deb? | 09:59 |
| wols_ | joetheodd: yes, if you are lucky | 09:59 |
| wols_ | tho, java is non-free | 09:59 |

| soldats | beginner: so im think depending on your computer setup if you have a nexer non onboard video card you may need the restricted drivers for your video card to get the right resolution, not sure if it worked before but itsd a start, the restricted drivers will be in administration>restricted drivers. if this isnt the prolem its worth checking out if your card is nvidia or ati but im out of it right now but i hope you get it working if not ill be on tom | 10:33 |
| ActionParsnip | yit41: not sure about the -purge bit, I'm never sure where it goes in the command | 10:33 |
| Bodsda | lorenzo_, oh,. is it in the repo's? | 10:33 |

| beginner | i said im new to linux (Ubuntu) & when i upgrade Gutsy to hardy i got a problem with resolution (800*600) i think (big icons) and when i go to System>preferences>screen resolution i got this error msg : "The X Server does not support the XRandR extension. Runtime resolution changes to the display size are not available." | 10:34 |
| natalisushka | Guys, anyone knows if it's possible to add memory while configuring xserver-xorg to a video card that doesn't lack memory by itself? | 10:34 |
| soldats | beginner: i meant newer video card that is not on board | 10:34 |
| yit41 | and also is it normal for ubuntu to produce sound from only one application at one time? like i'm running amarok, playing some songs while ubuntu doesnt produce any sounds unless i stop amarok | 10:34 |
| ActionParsnip | yit41: it --purge, my bad | 10:34 |
| beginner | its Nvidia | 10:34 |
| beginner | and it was working perfectly with Gutsy | 10:34 |

| nxvl | hi | 10:35 |
| nxvl | did someone know how to mount an sd card? | 10:35 |
| soldats | beginner: well i assume you should install thew restricted drivers for your card they should be in what i said before or in synaptics package manager so see the first you should be able to search easily for it but i need to sleep so ill maybe see you later good luck | 10:35 |
| Fritzel | would I be asking for trouble if I did something like this, aoss padsp wine application.exe | 10:35 |
| beginner | i did and it says in use! | 10:35 |
| ActionParsnip | nxvl: push in the card then run fdisk -l | 10:36 |

| nxvl | ActionParsnip: don't see it there | 10:36 |
| faileas | nxvl: same way as any other card... | 10:36 |

| erUSUL | constrictor: ##java ?? | 11:15 |

| shedflex | ctrl-alt-backspace is nice when u can't do anything else | 11:15 |
| cq | infornography: from scratch install is more work | 11:15 |

| ikonia | tmapj_: for future reference saying "anyone" is a pointless exercise, as if you asked the question, no -one knew, saying "anyone" won't help them know the answer, if someone missed the answer saying "anyone" won't let them know the question | 12:10 |

| ActionParsnip | then rerun firefox | 12:15 |

| ikonia | m1dn1ght: why do you think re-installing with resolve this issue ? | 12:17 |

| Jappsta | and add it :) | 12:18 |
| ikonia | manifest_: use the useraddmin gui | 12:18 |
| ActionParsnip | m1dn1ght: that folder is your firefox config which may be to blame, when you rerun you will get a stovk firefox profile which you can rebuild | 12:18 |
| ikonia | manifest_: system --> admin --> users and groups | 12:18 |
| robert__ | Jappsta: yeah i tried that it only has the same resolutions | 12:18 |
| manifest_ | akonia: it wont let me de one | 12:18 |
| ikonia | manifest_: what does it say ? | 12:18 |
| m1dn1ght | ikonia - I suspected one of the add-ons was causing some kind of weird conflict. there didn't seem to be any rhyme or reason for the crashes, so just wanted to start fresh. Also, hardy comes with firefox 3 by default which is incompatible with some of my fav add-ons, | 12:18 |
| manifest_ | the button to make a new one is grey, cant click it | 12:19 |

| European-African | ikonia: is that waht I type | 12:28 |
| ikonia | European-African: no the /dev file | 12:28 |
| European-African | ikonia: how do I find out what the dev file is for my usb-stick? | 12:29 |
| allam | ikonia:when i try to mount my partitions it show me this message mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdc7, | 12:29 |

| ikonia | European-African: look in /var/log/messages | 12:29 |
| European-African | ikonia: ok thanx | 12:29 |
| ikonia | allam: then it's not fat | 12:30 |

| ikonia | ziod: you'd have to copy them, then touch them later with a different time stap | 12:30 |
| ikonia | ziod: copying files makes a "new" file, hence the new time stamp | 12:31 |

| george_ | Hey guys, I have a portable HDD that didnt get "safely removed" from a windows machine and now it's unable to be mounted on ubuntu 8.04, could I please get some help on the matter? thanks | 13:03 |
| pinnerup | A question: I'm on HH. When I use irssi regularly, I can easily use ALT+arrow keys to change windows (right-left), but when I ssh to a shell and try the same, ALT+arrow keys just gives me "3D" and "3C". Any idea how to fix that? (Note: When I use PuTTY to ssh from Windows to the same shell, it works fine.) | 13:03 |
| ikonia | george_: sure, the only thing you can do is boot into windows and chkdisk it | 13:04 |
| In-Sane | pf: yep, i see the package names now, thanks again | 13:04 |
| Pici | microwaver: Ah, found the bug page: https://launchpad.net/bugs/124406 , I'm not sure if theres a fix yet, sorry. | 13:04 |

| ubottu | Launchpad bug 124406 in linux "Keyboard keys get stuck and repeat (Feisty, Gutsy)" [Unknown,Confirmed] | 13:04 |
| ikonia | pinnerup: alt+arrow is not a standard key sequence | 13:04 |
| gexen42 | george_: You could download UBCD4win and then run a chkdisk from there if you don't have a bootable system to go into | 13:04 |
| microwaver | Pici, you don't need to apologise for that :-). it's not THAT often. It's just quite harrassing when alt tabbing between windows | 13:05 |
| gexen42 | george_: Bootable system running windows that is... | 13:05 |
| pinnerup | ikonia: Ehm ... ok. But how do I fix it? | 13:05 |
| ikonia | george_: your can follow gexen42's advice aslso, but I'd advise againt it | 13:05 |

| In-Sane | ikonia: will apt-cache search help me looking for other plugins too? like flash? or for some packages? | 13:06 |
| Trae | hey guys is there a nice GUI tool for setting up hard drives to mount @ boot time? You'd think you could right click it and select "automount at boot" in properties. | 13:06 |
| ikonia | pinnerup: echo $TERM | 13:06 |
| ikonia | gexen42: not personaly | 13:06 |
| ikonia | In-Sane: flash plugin is called "flashplugin-nonfree" | 13:06 |
| ikonia | In-Sane: you can search for anything with it | 13:06 |
| pinnerup | ikonia: It returns "xterm". | 13:06 |
| In-Sane | ikonia: ok ok, now its clear :) | 13:06 |
| gexen42 | ikonia: Why wouldn't you recommend it? | 13:06 |

| Dark_Shadow | nothing | 13:09 |
| pinnerup | ikonia: The standard in HH. It's just called "ssh", I guess. | 13:09 |
| ikonia | allam: so why are you showing me /dev/hdc | 13:09 |
| ikonia | Dark_Shadow: then why say it ? | 13:09 |

| ubottu | cq: 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+) | 14:07 |

| Cyber_Stalker | fugitivo but if you tell me to upgrade with out knowing the whole purpose of the freedom toaster | 14:18 |
| Cyber_Stalker | created by ubuntu and the shuttleworth foundation | 14:19 |
| Cyber_Stalker | then ure an idiot | 14:19 |
| fugitivo | Cyber_Stalker, i don't care the freedom toaster, if you have 7.10 and want 8.04, install it and upgrade | 14:19 |
| whuut | perfector: it doesn't matter if it screws up my install i'm, it's already screwed anyways | 14:19 |
| perfector | whuut: it may take time, and im running out of it, sorry dude.... | 14:19 |
| azhexn | but the live usb installatin is still a live ubuntu right? changes made to the ubuntu it self arent saved? | 14:19 |

| t0th_- | i try install ubuntu 7.04 in my sony vaio, but i got the error: Failed to allocate mem resource can help ? | 14:21 |
| Ronald | Cyber_Stalker: so install 7.10 that you have. Like I said, 8.04 is not mature at all. Bloody beta firefox, with crapy addon support due to it being beta, plugins not being registered in Firefox 2 due to bugs that have been open since before release. | 14:21 |
| whuut | Ok im going to reinstall | 14:22 |
| fugitivo | Cyber_Stalker, ok, that makes sense then | 14:22 |

| whuut | perfecto: thanks for tryeing to help.. | 14:22 |
| Cyber_Stalker | fugitivo how you feel about 8.4? | 14:22 |
| Ronald | the only thing better in 8.04 is compiz (it works!) | 14:22 |

| Pici | cq: Make sure that you restarted apache2 after you did a2enmod | 14:24 |
| Ronald | Cyber_Stalker: i don't consider compiz to be a primary requirent to the desktop ;) | 14:24 |
| stbain | cq: that's sudo /etc/init.d/apache force-reload | 14:24 |
| cq | it said it was already installes | 14:24 |

| bazhang | shaneireland, and as far as the usb key, is it just a key or a mp3 player--how formatted | 14:34 |
| _eMaX_ | someone knows how to modify gnome settings - I read http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=185616 but I dont know where these settings are made | 14:34 |
| shaneireland | just a key | 14:34 |

| European-African | kelvin911: I am cool | 14:35 |
| bazhang | shaneireland, that is very odd, what make of usb drive, and what app are you using to access the photos (eg digikam, et al) | 14:35 |
| kelvin911 | European-African: did you figure out the question i asked you last time? | 14:36 |
| shaneireland | yes digikam | 14:36 |
| shaneireland | but before all of em used to show up on the desktop | 14:36 |
| shaneireland | as soon as i plugged em in | 14:36 |
| European-African | kelvin911: :) haven't even tryed | 14:36 |
| eViking | bazhang: thx for answering! have not seen the u perfect server series ?? Probably too early/lazy of me to aske here. Just eager to get a web server for testing scripts etc. | 14:36 |
| bazhang | shaneireland, when did this start not working | 14:36 |
| shaneireland | now to mount em i have to sudo lsusb twice.. | 14:36 |
| European-African | kelvin911: been playing games | 14:37 |
| shaneireland | then fdisk - l then mount /dev/sdb1 /media/usb | 14:37 |
| kelvin911 | European-African: that question isnt really that hard | 14:37 |
| shaneireland | i upgrade the distribution to hardy heron | 14:37 |
| bazhang | kelvin911, European-African please take the chat to #ubuntu-offtopic thanks | 14:37 |
| shaneireland | then it stopped ive since reinstalled clean and still have the problem | 14:37 |
| _eMaX_ | where can I edit the configuration that nautilus uses evince-thumbnailer? | 14:37 |

| shaneireland | seems to be a known issue | 14:41 |
| nataq | this is getting strange | 14:41 |
| bazhang | shaneireland, let me take a look | 14:41 |
| acol | what key do i press to hide graphical progress bar when booting? | 14:42 |
| bazhang | acol, go into grub and edit kernel you are booting and remove quiet and splash | 14:43 |
| DracoZA | how do I see a hidden directory via the the terminal ? | 14:43 |
| Wanderer | http://www.taintedink.com/Reiko%20Gallery/reiko190small.jpg | 14:43 |
| acol | bazhang, yeah i was sort of hoping there would be a way to do this post grub actually | 14:43 |
| bazhang | acol, you want to get into cli and login that way? you can do that too-->you need to ask that though :) | 14:44 |
| acol | bazhang, no, i just want to hide the progress bar, at random, | 14:45 |
| bazhang | acol uh then no you cant do that | 14:45 |
| acol | bazhang, just so i can check what is for example the reason it is taking longer than expected | 14:45 |
| bazhang | acol see my first reply | 14:45 |
| bruce_ | (oh n/m, someone just synced it) | 14:45 |
| bazhang | shaneireland, have you a dual boot | 14:46 |
| Pici | acol: you can try going into the other vttys ctrl-alt-f1 , f2, etc. | 14:46 |
| acol | bazhang, i know about grub .. i don't want an on off, i want it interactive .. | 14:46 |
| acol | Pici, bah tty's won't be setup the first halve i guess... will try . | 14:46 |
| bazhang | acol, then get fedora :) | 14:46 |

| DonaldShimoda | im using putty+ public key to connect to a linux box with openssh, and after the update putty start to ask for a password, why? | 14:48 |
| hipodilski | is there a screensaver with nature pictures for ubuntu | 14:48 |
| Cyber_Stalker | lol and doff | 14:48 |
| bazhang | acol you are just removing the graphical interface, easily returned the next boot up | 14:48 |
| Cyber_Stalker | DonaldShimoda | 14:48 |
| Cyber_Stalker | because all keys have to be regenrerated | 14:48 |
| Cyber_Stalker | due to the SHH bug | 14:48 |
| Xcell | hipodilski: gnome-look.org | 14:48 |
| Cyber_Stalker | because of the random number generator bug in ubuntu and debian systems | 14:49 |

| hipodilski | Xcell: what about it | 14:49 |
| DonaldShimoda | Cyber_Stalker, but after that putty will recongnize the keys? | 14:49 |
| acol | bazhang, yeah i know grub, i just assumed there would be a more natural way. that is less keys | 14:49 |
| encKe | yes it will DonaldShimoda\ | 14:49 |
| Xcell | check there | 14:49 |
| Pici | DonaldShimoda: Please read the second link, it outlines what needs to be done for users and admins. | 14:49 |
| Cyber_Stalker | no because the keys will be new now | 14:49 |
| bazhang | acol you are not editing the kernel but the boot parameters--there could be nothing easier | 14:50 |
| DonaldShimoda | Cyber_Stalker, i know that :P | 14:50 |
| DonaldShimoda | Cyber_Stalker, i mind if is need to UPDATE putty also | 14:50 |
| Cyber_Stalker | no u wont need to update putty | 14:51 |
| DonaldShimoda | Cyber_Stalker, i will have to use the new pub key, off course | 14:51 |

| bazhang | joshual, sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop | 14:51 |
| Pici | joshual: Just install kubuntu-desktop, theres no difference between that and the kubuntu CD. | 14:51 |
| bazhang | kubuntu-kde4-desktop for kde4 joshual | 14:52 |
| Pici | joshual: And it will probably be easier due to dell drivers and whatnot. | 14:52 |
| joshual | bazhang: kde4 isnt really kubuntuized yet is it? | 14:52 |
| bazhang | ask that in #kubuntu-kde4 joshual :) | 14:52 |

| ZimCS | MrHeavy, i have a separate hdd ill be using | 15:09 |

| Nave_ | ok i have downloaded the flash file in the desktop | 15:19 |
| lnar | now I need help.... HOW CAN I RUN COMPIZ WITH TWO DIFFERENT USERS???? | 15:19 |
| hischild | !caps | 15:19 |
| ubottu | PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too. | 15:19 |
| Lynet | j2daosh: Ah, I'm on Hardy, don't see that package there. You using 7.04 or 7.10? | 15:19 |
| MrHeavy | ziod: Does your password contain any special characters like $ that might be freaking out the shell? | 15:19 |
| lnar | sorry! | 15:19 |
| j2daosh | 7.04 still i believe | 15:19 |
| lnar | nave... just type that in the console | 15:19 |
| j2daosh | everytime i attempt to upgrade it breaks the system | 15:19 |
| lnar | you dont have to download nothing | 15:19 |
| bazhang | sportman1280, alot of work just for some themes; uck is normally for adding drivers and the like for folks without net or easy access to the net (codecs et al); though you could certainly do it for what you have in mind | 15:19 |
| CLEARviewF | hi, does anybody know what is the name of the Listen Project IRC channel? they have one? | 15:20 |
| hischild | lnar: please describe it a bit. How are you running 2 users? like seperately, one at a time? | 15:20 |
| ziod | mrheavy: no, just regular numbers and letters. no special characters at all | 15:20 |
| Nave_ | ITS working!!!!!!!!!! | 15:20 |
| Nave_ | i love linux | 15:20 |
| hischild | !yay | 15:20 |
| ubottu | Glad you made it! :-) | 15:20 |
| lnar | at the same time | 15:20 |
| Nave_ | why is linux so good | 15:20 |
| hischild | lnar: where's the second user running from? | 15:20 |
| bazhang | !irc | CLEARviewF read the last link | 15:20 |

| Nave_ | well i'm a noob | 15:20 |
| Nave_ | i need to learn | 15:20 |
| bazhang | Nave_, please take the chat to #ubuntu-offtopic thanks | 15:20 |
| sportman1280 | bazhang: ya, just noticed that.. any idea why the theme wouldn't show up in the gnome theme settings? Even though it is in /usr/share/backgrounds where the default ubuntu ones are. I cant find any config files... :( | 15:21 |
| Nave_ | well i'm here to learn | 15:21 |
| lnar | there are two users, they are both using the same computer and i want to let then use compiz at the same time | 15:21 |
| hischild | lnar: sorry, haven't encountered such a situation before so i can't help there. | 15:21 |
| j2daosh | arrggg | 15:21 |
| bazhang | Nave_, this is a support channel, please limit your comments to specific support questions or chat in the offtopic channel thanks | 15:22 |
| lnar | i cant enable the effects once the first one is using them | 15:22 |
| j2daosh | wheres a list of all the repos? | 15:22 |
| vivek | hello | 15:22 |

| lnar | /etc/apt/sources.list | 15:22 |
| j2daosh | i need automake 1.10 to finish the install and i dont have it in my available repos | 15:22 |
| ssastre | someone knows how do I use MONIT to check for a process without using the pid file? | 15:22 |
| Lynet | j2daosh: That kinda scks. Anyway, the hardest part about building from source is usually to find all the -dev packages you need. I'd recommend using ./configure --prefix=/usr/local | 15:22 |
| je789 | i keep trying to compile apache but get this error checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables | 15:22 |
| hischild | !lnw | Nave_: start with reading this | 15:22 |
| ubottu | Nave_: start with reading this: Want to know the differences between Windows and Linux? This guide, called "Linux is Not Windows" is a pretty good read -- http://linux.oneandoneis2.org/LNW.htm | 15:22 |
| Pici | je789: install the package build-essential | 15:22 |
| j2daosh | lynet, what will that switch do for me that differes from my ./configure? | 15:22 |
| vivek | help | 15:22 |
| Pici | je789: fyi, apache is in the package repositories | 15:23 |
| bazhang | sportman1280, the cli stuff for that? I just know the pointy-clicky ways to do it :) | 15:23 |
| nguyen_minh_tuan | alo | 15:23 |
| nguyen_minh_tuan | thu ti | 15:23 |

| j2daosh | void^: yeah, find and dandy if you have hardy... i have fawn | 15:23 |
| sportman1280 | bazhang: ic. wonder where to look... | 15:23 |
| ssastre | different question. How is suposed daemons creates and delete its pid files? | 15:23 |
| Lynet | j2daosh: It makes the program install itself under /usr/local, to make sure it doesn't conflict with anything that's part of the regular .deb package system. | 15:24 |
| nguyen_minh_tuan | who know how to remove xvnkb? | 15:24 |
| lnar | is there any compiz channel?? | 15:24 |
| j2daosh | oh... interesting. i will have to start using that switch from now on | 15:24 |

| bazhang | !compiz | lnar | 15:24 |
| je789 | anyone else? | 15:24 |
| ubottu | lnar: Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - help in #compiz-fusion | 15:24 |

| j2daosh | ok, well apparently im not going to get this installed til i get to hardy so i will try to upgrade again :( | 15:25 |
| Stroganoff | nguyen_minh_tuan go to the source directory of xvnkb and run: sudo make uninstall | 15:25 |
| j2daosh | nevermind... | 15:25 |
| Lynet | j2daosh: Sort of a keep-everything-not-installed-by-.deb in a separate location. Some people prefer /opt/program_name, but the normal convention on most *nixes is to put it under /usr/local. | 15:25 |
| j2daosh | my box thinks its already update | 15:25 |
| TheNerdGotchU | ok i just seen the download icon pop up and go away as if it downloaded something. could this be a bug or a virri | 15:26 |
| sportman1280 | bazhang: where should i look for an answer? | 15:26 |

| sportman1280 | j2daosh: lol look right below where you wrote | 15:27 |
| j2daosh | hmm... gimme a sec | 15:27 |
| TheNerdGotchU | nothing | 15:27 |

| TheNerdGotchU | i diddnt download nothing | 15:27 |
| sportman1280 | hischild: Thanks! will look now | 15:27 |
| bazhang | TheNerdGotchU, not sure with such bare bones info sorry | 15:28 |
| hischild | sportman1280: i'm not sure of the file though. Let me search for it again. | 15:28 |

| TheNerdGotchU | lol oke dokey im just noid maybe | 15:28 |
| hischild | sportman1280: /home/hischild/.gnome2/backgrounds.xml is the file for me. | 15:28 |
| sportman1280 | hischild: is this in the home directory? because we dont want it in home.. we want it in the default | 15:28 |
| bazhang | TheNerdGotchU, run sudo apt-get update then sudo apt-get upgrade | 15:28 |
| hischild | sportman1280: it's rolled out as a default file. Find the skeleton file and add em in there. | 15:28 |
| j2daosh | where do i find what version i'm running? | 15:28 |
| je789 | im getting C compiler cannot create executables I've got build-essential installed and im wondering where i can begin to debug this ? | 15:29 |
| Pici | j2daosh: lsb_release -a | 15:29 |
| j2daosh | my system seems to think i'm running hardy but im almost positive i'm not | 15:29 |
| TheNerdGotchU | i ran that yesterday | 15:29 |
| sportman1280 | hischild: been looking around for it. any suggestions on where to look? | 15:29 |
| bazhang | TheNerdGotchU, do it again to be sure | 15:29 |
| j2daosh | 6.10 | 15:29 |

| j2daosh | lol well normally i dont have to add anything | 15:30 |
| sportman1280 | hischild: /usr/share/gnome-background-properites | 15:30 |
| j2daosh | everything i needed was practically installed with 6.1 | 15:30 |
| j2daosh | ok | 15:30 |
| sportman1280 | hischild: that look correct? | 15:30 |
| j2daosh | so if thats the case, why does my apt-get dist-upgrade tell me that my system is current? | 15:30 |
| hischild | sportman1280: yeah ... you beat me to it with a few secs | 15:31 |
| bazhang | j2daosh, you want to get to hardy from there? | 15:31 |
| Pici | !upgrade | j2daosh make sure you are running the proper commands | 15:31 |
| ubottu | j2daosh make sure you are running the proper commands: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | 15:31 |
| j2daosh | shouldn't it say "Holy crap dude!!! your as old as my granddad! I gottsta update da look yo" | 15:31 |
| TheNerdGotchU | ok Ive ran it | 15:31 |
| bazhang | TheNerdGotchU, and it is up to date? then nothing to worry about | 15:32 |
| j2daosh | upgrade didn't work either | 15:32 |
| je789 | Pici, ok let me ask is there a way to cleanly remove build-essential and reinstall but forcing it to redownload a fresh copy not a local package copy? | 15:32 |
| stevem | badger poo | 15:32 |

| je789 | Pici, you still here | 15:42 |
| Pici | je789: Yes. | 15:42 |

| shaneireland | bazhang sorry i had to jump off there | 15:43 |
| shaneireland | any ideas on mine | 15:43 |
| bazhang | shaneireland, did you see it in the fstab or in any way modify the fstab | 15:44 |
| hischild | je789: you're missing a libc6 package. Google for your specific error and it should pop up. (copy paste the line with the error to google) | 15:44 |
| shaneireland | the web seems to say leaving it out of fstab | 15:44 |
| shaneireland | so i took it out | 15:44 |
| shaneireland | didnt make any diff whether it was in or out | 15:44 |
| bazhang | shaneireland, aye; but did you do anyting with the fstab perchance? | 15:44 |
| shaneireland | whats strange is it does automount by Canon EOS but only after i run sudo lsusb | 15:45 |
| sandeep_panesar_ | where can i get info about linux programming ang graphics? | 15:45 |
| je789 | hischild, libc6 says its installed | 15:45 |
| sandeep_panesar_ | where can i get info about linux programming ang graphics? | 15:45 |
| shaneireland | at one point i removed the entries that were in there for sdb1 didnt make any difference | 15:45 |
| bazhang | shaneireland, well that is a nice short term workaround and more important; did you try wiping the usb key--may have been a unclean removal on another system | 15:45 |
| v0lksman | bazhang: can you suggest one that will cap compiz well? | 15:46 |
| sandeep_panesar_ | where can i get info about linux programming ang graphics? | 15:46 |
| liu_ | I can`t totally remove kde | 15:46 |
| hischild | je789: it's a libc6 related package, which has that in it's name. | 15:46 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sandeep_panesar_ /join #bash | 15:46 |
| shaneireland | yeah tried that but its the same on lll usb devices | 15:46 |
| bazhang | v0lksman, best to ask in #compiz-fusion for that | 15:46 |
| shaneireland | any other ideas anyone | 15:46 |
| shaneireland | im sure its hal related | 15:46 |
| bazhang | !puregnome | liu_ | 15:46 |
| ubottu | liu_: If you want to remove all !KDE packages and have a default !Ubuntu system follow the instructions here << http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome >> | 15:46 |
| je789 | hischild, i also installed libc-dev | 15:46 |
| shaneireland | and whats work it worked perfectly | 15:46 |
| laika | (16:42:13) laika: hi, i have a problem with sleep mode on my laptop. I can get it to sleep, but when it wakes up there is only a black sreen and it hangs up.. any thoughts? i googled as i could but im not much a linux guy... is amilo pi-1556 ( Nvidia 7600 Go , C2D ) | 15:46 |
| humbolto | when I have 2 IDE drives on the same bus (master, slave) with a 80pin conductor cable, does it actually make any sense in terms of speed to have a striping raid0 over these two devices? | 15:47 |
| laika | and im pretty desperate | 15:47 |
| sandeep_panesar_ | can i use xwindows along with gnome on my ubuntu? if yes then how? | 15:47 |
| ghostlines | does anyone know how to specify which kernel to load after reboot, i'm running a remote server? | 15:47 |
| icewaterman | can i install a fully-fleshed ubuntu into a chroot jail so i can boot it later? | 15:47 |
| Blu3 | laika, you probably need to twiddle some acpi things like posting bios and double chvt | 15:47 |
| Jack_Sparrow | laika It has to do with video drivers and config.. other than that I have no helpful info | 15:47 |
| bazhang | shaneireland, other than the suggestions on that thread not sure | 15:47 |
| liu_ | ubottu: thank you,I am from china,my country is suffering from earthquake,good luck | 15:47 |

| shaneireland | ok it is fair to assume that if i reinstall from a live cd it will wipe the hard disk first totally | 15:48 |

| Svish | why dont the screensavers have any settings? | 15:51 |
| hischild | sportman1280: because they're skeleton files and get rolled out to the corresponding file in your home dir. You have to add it to the file i gave your before to make a change to any existing user. | 15:51 |
| Svish | or are they just hidden somewhere? | 15:51 |

| Pici | joe_nix: Did you install libpcre-dev | 16:27 |
| bazhang | hoggie, you should check launchpad bug page and see if they have any workarounds yet | 16:28 |
| Jack_Sparrow | hoggie Sorry, dealing with two wifi people at the same time.. | 16:28 |

| Jack_Sparrow | profanephobia once you clean it out. it is gone | 16:28 |
| Jack_Sparrow | profanephobia you can use the info at the link to remake your package list. | 16:28 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !clone | 16:28 |
| ubottu | To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade » - See also !automate | 16:28 |

| danbhfive | Amphoteric: hmmm, maybe vmware is different from virtualbox, which is what I use. Sorry | 17:26 |

| r | Dear sir, | 17:27 |
| r | It is a humble request that if you could ship CD's free of charge to us of all the versions of Ubuntu and kubuntu | 17:27 |
| r | right form the version 6.06.1 LTS to the version 8.04 and also if you could send us any other future versions of | 17:27 |
| r | Ubuntu we would be delighted. I know that you do not ship older versions but it is request and them coming free | 17:27 |

| FloodBot2 | r: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 17:27 |
| daftykins | you obviously need to enable twinview on the second adaptor but not the first which you probably already have enabled for twinview | 17:27 |
| CShadowRun | Dr_willis weird, i have 2 8800GT's and i can't enable my third and fourth displays on GPU 1 | 17:27 |

| Bodsda | /loaded | 17:28 |
| Dr_willis | CShadowRun, i havent ever used 4 displays. :) i normally use the 2 nvidia config toolks to enable them. i DO think you can use SLI - OR 2+ displays with nvidia cards.. Ive never used sli however | 17:28 |

| mdgeorge | I've been getting seg faults in vim (and gvim) since I upgraded to hardy | 17:28 |
| AaronH | Amphoteric, go to a terminal and type "vm" then press the [TAB] key a couple times and see if you have vmware | 17:28 |
| Dr_willis | Bodsda, check out the 'vimtutor' program. :r reads a file I recall. | 17:28 |

| CShadowRun | Dr_willis hehe i don't have SLi enabled because i'm running dual screen now, i just can't get quad :( | 17:29 |
| daftykins | you need a second X server i think CShadowRun | 17:29 |
| Bodsda | Lardarse, ok,well thanks for your help and sipior ty | 17:29 |

| bazhang | jUaL_8800_sirocc, aye | 17:44 |
| jUaL_8800_sirocc | and then? | 17:44 |
| r | wow nice show | 17:45 |
| jUaL_8800_sirocc | i cant doubleclick it | 17:45 |
| PMantis | danbhfive: Of course, I just didn't see it on any CD at first... only found it on ubuntu.com - I wasn't going to do that after I d/l all the ISOs already. | 17:45 |

| matteo1990 | hi all, i have a dependencies error from the moment that i completed removed Wine, when i try to reinstall it i got an error message that says i need dpkg (that i have) and lbldap (that i have) any tips? Thx a lot | 17:45 |
| jramsey | yeah | 17:45 |
| r | wow its amazing | 17:45 |
| danbhfive | PMantis: makes sense | 17:45 |
| jramsey | daftykins, here | 17:45 |
| daftykins | looks like you can just add "auto eth1" below "auto eth0" | 17:45 |
| mgolisch | why cant i compile my nvidia driver? | 17:45 |

| ubottu | Launchpad bug 228363 in ubuntu "Hauppauge PVR-150 with no audio after upgrading to Hardy" [Undecided,New] | 17:45 |
| daftykins | and then did you say eth1 is your primary connecting to your router instead of eth0? | 17:45 |
| mgolisch | it tells me to do make oldconfig and make prepare on my kernel sources | 17:45 |
| ghaleb | I was looking around .. and I saw this pic : http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/leopard.png .. how do they add these things ?! | 17:45 |
| mgolisch | but make prepare allways fails | 17:45 |
| jramsey | daftykins, ok i'll give it a try; if it doesn't work at least i know where to look; txs very much for ur help | 17:45 |
| daftykins | np | 17:46 |
| daftykins | jramsey duplicate the line below too | 17:46 |
| mgolisch | the makefile seems to be invalid | 17:46 |
| mgolisch | or something | 17:46 |
| daftykins | "iface eth0 inet dhcp" | 17:46 |
| daftykins | copy that for eth1 | 17:46 |
| jramsey | daftykins, no eth0 is primary; eth1 will be a bridge port | 17:46 |
| daftykins | on command line you can type "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart" | 17:46 |
| daftykins | so you don't have to reboot each time | 17:46 |
| daftykins | then just experiment :) | 17:46 |

| bazhang | ghaleb, get avant-window-navigator for the dock at the bottom; make your terminal transparent for the middle item, the others I am not sure | 17:46 |
| Captain_Hydro_Ll | It's uhh the install doesn't seem to have those options | 17:46 |

| jUaL_8800_sirocc | anybody, please help me,, i'm using xchat, how can i go to DALNET?? | 17:48 |
| yacc | wil: devices don't get automounted, you need click on it. | 17:48 |
| mgolisch | jUaL_8800_sirocc: in the server browser search for dalnet and click connect or so | 17:48 |
| bazhang | Captain_Hydro_Ll, this is hardy installer? live cd? | 17:48 |
| danbhfive | r: are you still trying to figure out pastebin? | 17:49 |
| wil | yacc: is there a way to set it to get mounted on startup so i dont have to click on it? | 17:49 |
| Captain_Hydro_Ll | i downloaded it from the ubuntu site | 17:49 |
| linduxed | i've got a directory called /home/Shared that i created as root. i want all regular users to be able to use it freely, how do i do it/ which command | 17:49 |
| jUaL_8800_sirocc | i cant find server browser.... | 17:49 |
| Captain_Hydro_Ll | but yes hardy | 17:49 |
| jUaL_8800_sirocc | where is it? | 17:49 |
| yacc | wil: good question. Yes, but I don't know the correct Ubuntu way ;) | 17:49 |
| ghaleb | bazhang, and the left things ? | 17:49 |
| linduxed | freely = read&write | 17:49 |
| Caram | HELLO | 17:49 |
| wil | yacc: lol okay thanks | 17:50 |
| yacc | yacc: the oldhand way would be to edit /etc/fstab I guess. | 17:50 |
| daftykins | wil it's just the way external devices work; you can quite easily add an entry to /etc/fstab | 17:50 |
| Captain_Hydro_Ll | the installer is called wubi though | 17:50 |
| bazhang | Captain_Hydro_Ll, ah that is the problem then | 17:50 |
| Caram | O:-) | 17:50 |
| Captain_Hydro_Ll | ? | 17:50 |
| wil | daftykins: would you be able to help me in doing that? | 17:50 |
| AaronH | wil, it should be mounting automatically to /media/yourexternaldirve | 17:50 |
| yacc | wil: daftykins: seems like the old way is the new way too :) | 17:50 |
| yacc | wil: sudo gedit /etc/fstab => take a look. | 17:50 |
| daftykins | wil if you can start by reproducing the situation before you click the icon | 17:50 |
| matteo1990 | hi all, i have a dependencies error from the moment that i completed removed Wine, when i try to reinstall it i got an error message that says i need dpkg (that i have) and lbldap (that i have) any tips? Thx a lot | 17:50 |
| bazhang | Captain_Hydro_Ll, you should boot from the livecd (set in bios) and install from there -->not inside windows | 17:50 |
| daftykins | run "df -h" and see if it's mounted anywhere | 17:50 |
| AaronH | point mythtv to the mount in /media/ ,wil | 17:51 |
| yacc | wil: next step would be figuring out the id of the device. | 17:51 |
| babolat | my /tmp folder just got to 25G is there a built-in tool in Ubuntu I could use to clean it up? or do i just manually delete them?-->is this safe? | 17:51 |
| Captain_Hydro_Ll | so go into ubuntu and boot from the live cd | 17:51 |
| daftykins | "lsusb" if it's a USB external | 17:51 |
| bazhang | how to get rid of big tmp file? | 17:51 |
| xjohnthomasx | Captain_Hydro_Ll: can you help with my audio problem? I keep getting this error that sound device busy, unavailable, and I can't play anything off of Amarok. I tried restarting firefox, but still no luck. I tried resetting alsa. Still no luck. Help? Ideas? | 17:51 |
| bazhang | Captain_Hydro_Ll, aye | 17:51 |
| daftykins | er, ignore that - that'll just show what's there | 17:51 |
| danbhfive | babolat: a reboot should clear it out | 17:51 |
| hccmb | is there an new list for compatibal hardware for ubuntu 8.04 somewhere? | 17:51 |
| babolat | danbhfive: no it does not | 17:51 |
| AaronH | I have an external and if I boot with it connected to my usb it automatically mounts when gnome starts | 17:51 |
| Captain_Hydro_Ll | sorry xjohn I';m new | 17:51 |
| bazhang | Captain_Hydro_Ll, reboot out of windows and startup with ubuntu cd | 17:52 |
| Captain_Hydro_Ll | also thanks for all the help bazhang | 17:52 |
| Captain_Hydro_Ll | kk thanks | 17:52 |
| linduxed | bump | 17:52 |
| bazhang | Captain_Hydro_Ll, dont say thanks yet :) | 17:52 |

| yacc | babolat: a reboot does clean it out. It might be that you get the 25GB into it quickly afterwards, but it does clean it out :) | 17:52 |
| xjohnthomasx | can anyone? | 17:52 |
| linduxed | xjohnthomasx: are you playing mp3s? | 17:53 |
| bazhang | xjohnthomasx, you tried selecting autodetect? | 17:53 |
| xjohnthomasx | linduxed: yeah.. ? | 17:53 |
| hccmb | xjohnthomasx : wich version of ubuntu? | 17:53 |
| xjohnthomasx | 7.04 gutsy | 17:53 |
| xjohnthomasx | i tried alsa, pulse, and oss, and auto | 17:53 |
| linduxed | xjohnthomasx: anything in the error about dbus? | 17:53 |
| AaronH | xjohnthomasx, you just have to do "lsof | grep pcm" then kill the processes that are holding up your sound card. | 17:53 |
| bogey- | bazhang: have you tried XEN in Ubuntu? | 17:53 |
| xjohnthomasx | it was working fine an hour ago | 17:53 |
| wil | yacc: how would i find the id? is that the <file system> under fstab | 17:53 |
| xjohnthomasx | AaronH: i will try | 17:53 |
| danbhfive | babolat: well, that sucks. Because, no, its not that safe, so I hear. I mean, I don't think its safe for CURRENTLY running programs (it could cause them to crash) So, if you delete it, and reboot, you should be fine | 17:53 |
| hccmb | xjohnthomasx : did you enable system sounds? | 17:53 |
| daftykins | file system is "fat,ntfs,smbfs" etc | 17:53 |
| bazhang | bogey-, not yet; having issues? | 17:53 |
| yacc | Well, you will need the id to identify the device in fstab. you need to add a line to it. | 17:54 |
| yacc | Moment. | 17:54 |
| bazhang | ghaleb, the rest is screenlets (goes with compiz) | 17:54 |
| babolat | yacc: really.. hmm.. i doubt it. i code with php and that's about it.. save for this irc room of course | 17:54 |
| xjohnthomasx | AaronH: should this command take a while? | 17:54 |
| AaronH | xjohnthomasx, yes | 17:54 |

| bazhang | ghaleb, :) | 17:54 |
| AaronH | xjohnthomasx, you know how you use the "kill" command? | 17:54 |
| hccmb | xjohnthomasx : system / perferences / sound | 17:54 |
| hccmb | take a look there | 17:54 |
| yacc | wil: when you open "Computer", and go to the properties of the device, it should show you the uuid in volume tab. | 17:54 |
| babolat | danbhfive: so you're saying that if i don't have mission critical apps running at the moment, then delete those files and reboot right after, its *safe* ? | 17:55 |

| MTecknology | Bodsda, I'm restoring data and they need the timestamps for reference points | 18:34 |

| belarm | rename is very straight-forward...if you perl expressions :-( | 19:25 |

| broonsparrow | hi. how do i make my usb wireless dongle work??? | 19:42 |
| lordchavez83 | any1 in here who can help me with an Geforce5200go and Xserver, i recently got a black screen after loading ? | 19:42 |
| factotum | anyone have bad experiences when doing a dist-upgrade instead of a reinstall? | 19:42 |
| el1te | the little auto notification is letting me know i have an unfinished install of java | 19:42 |
| goibhniu | etheredge: does windows need to be able to read it? | 19:42 |
| etheredge | well my ps3 does | 19:42 |
| === gexen42 is now known as gexen | ||
| el1te | i couldnt figure it out how to install so every tine i boot it tells me | 19:42 |
| etheredge | i would like if windows could read it as well | 19:42 |
| Flannel | el1te: Adept may be a little different in the layout. #kubuntu could tell you more concretely. Or you can just do this via the command line, | 19:42 |
| etheredge | but its not a req atm | 19:43 |
| === gexen is now known as tempspace | ||
| etheredge | goibhniu, my ps3 but i would like windows to if possible | 19:43 |
| SinnerG | I apt-get upgrade'd and now apache wont boot :( | 19:43 |
| Bert_2 | lastelement0: you can toggle a channel with , and . or with < and > | 19:43 |
| djhash_ | !pastebin | AstralliS | 19:43 |
| ubottu | AstralliS: 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) | 19:43 |
| Flannel | SinnerG: What errors does it give? | 19:43 |
| el1te | i can see the license agreement i just cant enter that window so it can take a keyboard command | 19:43 |
| SinnerG | none | 19:43 |
| SinnerG | thats the sad part | 19:44 |
| goibhniu | etheredge: I don't know what filesystems a ps3 can handle .. I think that the kernel needs to support it .. I really don't know much about windows filesystems sorry :( | 19:44 |
| Flannel | el1te: You should ask in #kubuntu, I don't know. | 19:44 |
| el1te | ok thanks | 19:44 |
| tech0007 | el1te: use alt-tab | 19:44 |
| Bert_2 | lastelement0: did it work ? | 19:44 |
| etheredge | heh well is there a filesystem with linux that i could use to xfer it? | 19:44 |

| AstralliS | amarok | 19:45 |
| lastelement0 | ldiamond: i use amarok | 19:45 |
| Bert_2 | lastelement0: great, now sorry that it had to be done in such an unfriendly way, ubuntu is all about an easy user-experience so we try to minimise the need for this "command line" stuff | 19:45 |
| ldiamond | ill give it a shot | 19:45 |
| lastelement0 | bert_2: its alright i have no problem with the command line, just was unaware of that particular command | 19:46 |
| ldiamond | 122MB for amarok | 19:46 |
| ldiamond | wow | 19:46 |
| broonsparrow | hi. how do i make my usb wireless dongle work, it's a d-link one. would i need a driver? where could i get one? | 19:46 |
| lastelement0 | bert_2: i had a feeling it was something silly once i found out both sides worked | 19:46 |
| Bert_2 | lastelement0: well, I was too, I just did man alsamixer and it was in there somewhere ;) :p | 19:46 |
| daftykins | hahaha, that's always the most hilarious question relating to Linux | 19:46 |
| lastelement0 | bert_2: im just impatient haha | 19:46 |
| daftykins | "USB" "wireless" and "driver" in the same sentence | 19:46 |
| lordchavez83 | any1 in here who can help me with an Geforce5200go and Xserver, i recently got a black screen after loading ? | 19:46 |

| lordchavez83 | no | 19:47 |
| goibhniu | Bert_2: ah brilliant .. thanks | 19:48 |

| MrPeepers310 | hey whats the command to open a file to adobe photoshop under wine? | 19:56 |
| sjgibbs80 | All: I have recently taken an old Mandrake machine out of mothballs - unused for years - for use as a development server. Ubuntu installs, but when I reboot the old Mandrake loader comes up. I'd like to completely clear down the disks (there are two) and start afresh with whatever loader Ubuntu uses but none of the obvious options in the install screens (Install GRUB, install LILO etc) work. | 19:56 |
| daftykins | ah ok so one screen is built-in, the other is a VGA d-sub external? | 19:56 |
| cypha | yes | 19:56 |
| wols_ | cypha: there are no 6800 nvidia onboard chips | 19:56 |
| cypha | not sure what d-sub is | 19:56 |
| wols_ | simply don't exist | 19:56 |
| AstralliS | no, goibhiniu, how I can do that? | 19:56 |
| daftykins | d-sub is the name of connector | 19:56 |
| daftykins | 15 pin condensed d-sub = vga | 19:56 |
| AaronH | MrPeepers310, just open Adobe then do file>open | 19:56 |
| cypha | does ubuntu have "system information" where it can tell me what card i have? | 19:57 |

| Radit | how do i change the startup sound in ubuntu? -not the login sound | 19:57 |

| Flannel | Radit: In Login Screen setup, under accessibility | 19:57 |
| daftykins | install the OS, allow it to install nvidia-glx-new if prompted, then install "nvidia-settings" and using a terminal run "sudo nvidia-settings" ? | 19:57 |
| goibhniu | AstralliS: `apt-get install fusion-icon` I think | 19:57 |
| daftykins | you done all that? | 19:57 |
| cypha | lspci didn't tell me what nvidia card i had | 19:57 |
| MrPeepers310 | AaronH: but if i wanted to click on an image and have it open in photoshop how do i do that? | 19:57 |

| britton | hello, I just installed Ubuntu 8.04 LTS but I had a second HDD with an incomplete Windows XP install and now XP shows up as a grub entry. How can I reformat the second HDD and get the XP option off of the grub screen? I downloaded Gparted already | 20:06 |
| Odpey | i don't have the option 'Add to panel' | 20:06 |
| Flannel | Omid: Alright, try booting to windows, then shutting down completely, then rebooting into Ubuntu. Soemtimes that happens if you have an unclean shutdown | 20:06 |
| Odpey | i just installed kubuntu 8.04 with the kde 4 desktop | 20:06 |
| Tyler | erUSUL: will do. thanks for the pointers. BTW it doesn't show up at boot either, I have to use Gparted to pick it up. I don't know if that tells you anything | 20:06 |
| RyanPrior | Odpey: You're in the wrong channel then. Please ask in #kubuntu | 20:06 |
| Odpey | thanks :) RyanPrior | 20:07 |
| genii | Odpey: Actually #kubuntu or #kubuntu-kde4 | 20:07 |
| sjgibbs80 | Guys I'd like to wipe my mbr and OS loaders and have a fresh clean 8.04 ubuntu server. How do I do that? | 20:07 |
| Omid | I did try that way, but it does not fix | 20:07 |
| ChaosTheory_ | Can anyone walk me through a Slackware-Ubuntu dual-boot installation? =P | 20:07 |
| Flannel | sjgibbs80: Just pop the disk in and install, reformat the entire harddrive | 20:07 |
| wakka-wakka | alright, hd is wiped out if anyone was on here an hour ago. | 20:07 |
| RyanPrior | sjgibbs80: A strong magnet would work. Otherwise you could try reformatting the drive. | 20:07 |
| gluefairy | eri3: What you mean it stopped working? Grub doesn't load or it loads and gives you a funny screen? | 20:07 |
| wakka-wakka | how do i go about uninstalling firefox beta | 20:07 |
| Flannel | britton: repartitioning is easy, fire up gparted and delete it. As for changing the GRUB menu, edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and delete the windows stuff at the very bottom | 20:07 |
| mibu666 | Bonsoir à tous | 20:08 |
| Tyler | wakka-wakka: Use synaptic | 20:08 |
| Pici | !fr | mibu666 | 20:08 |
| ubottu | mibu666: Ce canal est en anglais uniquement. Si vous avez besoin d'aide ou voulez discuter en francais, merci de rejoindre #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr | 20:08 |
| sjgibbs80 | Flannel: How do I "reformat the entire drive?" - I used the partitioner step and it left an old loader behind | 20:08 |
| redwhitewaldo | how do i figure out my network device's name (it's not eth0)? thanks | 20:08 |
| AaronH | britton, you just have to use gparted to wipe out the windows hdd and then edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst to get rid of the windows option at boot | 20:08 |
| tech0007 | sjgibbs80: pick 'guided' | 20:08 |
| anabolix | anyone know how to fix my login screen? its way bigger than my monitor, making the box where i enter my password at the bottom right, instead of being center screen. | 20:09 |
| Flannel | sjgibbs80: During the installation, just tell it to use the entire drive, or go manually and delete all the partitions, then create new ones, etc | 20:09 |
| Tyler | redwhitewaldo: System>Network Tools | 20:09 |
| eri3 | gluefairy: iit just stopped loading and automatically went to windows. it did that before because i had set windows as the first startup option so it automatically picked it, but then the screen stopped loading altogether... it didn't matter to me because my mom was using the computer and she hates ubuntu, so i didn't really care. but now even windows won't load up. i'm just assuming that if i can find a way to get to the grub screen | 20:09 |
| RyanPrior | anabolix: I've heard that complaint like 3 times now, still not sure what causes it. | 20:09 |
| redwhitewaldo | Tyler: is it "lo"? | 20:09 |
| sjgibbs80 | tech0007 & Flannel: I think I've tried that from the manual option. I'll try the guided options. brb | 20:10 |
| Tyler | redwhitewaldo: You're asking a process of elimation question. Try it | 20:10 |
| redwhitewaldo | Tyler: I see eth0, but when i do a command "sudo ifdown eth0 && sudo ifup eth0" it says "unknown interface" | 20:10 |
| anabolix | ryanprior: yea its been that way for a while.... but it wasnt that way when i installed ubuntu... its after i got new login screens and used them | 20:10 |
| Tyler | redwhitewaldo: Sounds like you're missing drivers | 20:10 |

| britton | thanks Flannel AaronH rebooting to ck for grub errors | 20:11 |
| gluefairy | eri3: Can you paste your menu.lst? | 20:11 |
| redwhitewaldo | Tyler: but my wired internet is working just fine | 20:11 |
| RyanPrior | anabolix: Perhaps you should read the documentation on the gdm login screen and then things will make sense. | 20:11 |
| tech0007 | redwhitewaldo: type ifconfig | 20:11 |
| anabolix | ryanprior: tbh, i think i might have followed an instruction on how to use the login screen i just got, and might have altered a config file | 20:11 |
| icewaterman | tech0007: want to remove kde desktop (keep some kde apps though) | 20:11 |
| Omid | how I can scape that window? | 20:11 |
| anabolix | ryanprior: but it was a long time ago, and forgot what exactly i might have done.... | 20:11 |
| Omid | why I see that? | 20:12 |

| tech0007 | icewaterman: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome | 20:12 |
| eri3 | gluefairy: i can't get the computer to load at all. it tries loading into windows but i get to some options like 'start in safe mode' or 'start last known working configuration,' but none of those work | 20:12 |
| RyanPrior | anabolix: Like I said, if you understood the system, you might be able to look at the necessary configuration files and so on and just make sense of it. | 20:12 |
| gluefairy | eri3: Do you have any live cds? | 20:12 |
| anabolix | ryanprior: if im not mistaken i had to add a variable value at an end of a config file... something like vga=xxx ...... xxx=being any 3 numbers | 20:12 |
| tech0007 | redwhitewaldo: you r using eth0, try sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart instead | 20:13 |
| anabolix | ryanprior: thanks | 20:13 |
| Tyler | anabolix: sudo nano /etc/usplash.conf | 20:13 |
| Tyler | anabolix: check your resolution in this | 20:13 |
| gluefairy | eri3: The ubuntu installation cd for example, which you could boot from. | 20:13 |
| eri3 | gluefairy: i'm sorry but i'm not sure what that is... is that the same thing you use to install ubuntu in the first place? if so, no, i think i lost it, but i could make a new one | 20:13 |
| redwhitewaldo | tech0007: Usage: /etc/init.d/networking {start|stop|restart|force-reload} | 20:13 |
| eri3 | gluefairy: i could make a new one... what then? | 20:13 |
| Tyler | redwhitewaldo: are you trying to figure out your ip address or configure your wireless? | 20:13 |

| redwhitewaldo | Tyler: tech0007: i'm down to the last step on that opendns.com page. Command "$ sudo ifdown eth0 && sudo ifup eth0 " wont't work for me. | 20:14 |
| Tyler | anabolix: there is another file to configure your loggin and I'm trying to remember it | 20:14 |
| gluefairy | eri3: you will need to boot the computer to fix anything (unless you could steal the hardrive), so yeah, you will need to make another installation cd. | 20:14 |
| gate_jo | hi i have a problem how to launch automatically flash player in my firefox browser | 20:14 |
| hotmonkeyluv | is there a way that I can install something with "sudo apt-get install conky --enable-xmms2" (this doesn't work) Can you pass arguments to aptitude when installing packages? | 20:14 |
| gate_jo | ? | 20:15 |
| anabolix | tyler: 1024768 | 20:15 |
| icewaterman | tech0007: hm, i think i should go for a new i386 install (currently it is amd64) since there is no easy way to get a working 32-bit installation via chroot and then boot it, i guess i am with installing it all over again | 20:15 |
| Tyler | redwhitewaldo: try eth1 then | 20:15 |
| anabolix | tyler: 1024x768 | 20:15 |
| Tyler | anabolix: change it to that then | 20:15 |
| anabolix | tyler: your telling me to edit the config file? or change the res, from the options | 20:15 |
| marcules | Hey Guys :) | 20:15 |
| Pici | hotmonkeyluv: No, apt pulls down binary packages, not sources. You *may* be able to do that if you apt-get source conky and compile it yourself though | 20:15 |
| tech0007 | redwhitewaldo: you can skip the last step i think, try it | 20:15 |
| Tyler | anabolix: edit the config file to the resolution that you usually run on your desktop | 20:16 |
| hotmonkeyluv | Pici: I tried that, but it won't go through the make process | 20:16 |
| redwhitewaldo | tech0007: ok. | 20:16 |

| tech0007 | Omid: what's wrong? | 20:17 |
| gluefairy | eri3: after making a new one, you should boot into it, mount the partition ubuntu is located on and check the file /boot/grub/menu.lst | 20:17 |
| Tyler | grendal_prime: you need to search the forums for Dell Vostro Ubuntu guide | 20:17 |
| wakka-wakka | how would i go about uninstalling firefox 3 beta 5 and installing one in the 2 area? | 20:17 |
| Tyler | grendal_prime: I'm not promising anything but it may work | 20:17 |

| Omid | black screen alike Microsoft DOS! first word: "BusyBox Verion 1...." Ubunu 8.02 Desktop | 20:17 |
| hotmonkeyluv | askand: perhaps a bad gfx card driver? | 20:18 |
| Omid | I see that after Boot time progress | 20:18 |
| Pici | hotmonkeyluv: that grabs the build (compile) dependencies for packages, useful if you want to compile your own versions of stuff already in the repos. | 20:18 |
| Tyler | wakka-wakka: don't uninstall firefox 3b just install ff 2 to run along with it | 20:18 |
| hotmonkeyluv | Pici: hrm, I still get the same errors | 20:18 |
| wakka-wakka | Tyler: why do you say that | 20:18 |
| hotmonkeyluv | Pici: do I need to ./configure it with those installed first? | 20:19 |
| Pici | hotmonkeyluv: yes. | 20:19 |
| mephistofun | what is name of the package containing the complete kernel sources for hardy | 20:19 |
| Tyler | wakka-wakka: because ff3b will eventually turn into ff3 release cantitade | 20:19 |
| hotmonkeyluv | Pici: does it hurt/matter if I do ./configure and then do it again? | 20:19 |
| wakka-wakka | Tyler: maybe you could answer this.. is there a way, that when i press the down button on the address bar, it will show what i went to, not what's in my bookmarks (or whatever it shows) | 20:19 |
| Tyler | mephistofun:You can find it in Synaptic. Search for kernel | 20:19 |

| RyanPrior | condawg: Firefox and especially Flash in Firefox is having sound troubles right now, and it is is a really big mess to sort out. However, it stems from well-known bugs, and it's being worked upon as we speak. | 20:26 |
| mitch_ | amrik, i am sure. i'm really using debian. But ubuntu doesn't even have a ppc build | 20:27 |

| Tyler | anabolis: hows that working for you? | 20:27 |
| anabolix | tyler: ok i just installed it and i ran it... now what? | 20:27 |
| RyanPrior | mitch_: This is not a good channel for that question. Perhaps ask on irc.mozilla.org | 20:27 |
| mitch_ | RyanPrior, they sent me here..... | 20:27 |
| Tyler | anabolis: lol change the settings to what they should be. What resolution are you running on your desktop? | 20:27 |
| RyanPrior | condawg: You can install the package libflashsupport, but it is a sub-standard solution since it often causes Firefox to crash after watching multiple Flash movies with sound. | 20:28 |
| condawg | RyanPrior: But, after it crashes and I reopen it, it can still restore my tabs, right? | 20:28 |
| RyanPrior | condawg: I just keep a tab of pages with Flash movies that I want to watch, and then watch them all at once at some point so I don't have to keep switching. | 20:28 |
| wakka-wakka | alright how od i go about installing firefox 2 | 20:28 |
| amrik | mitch_: to be clear what version of ubuntu are you using? | 20:28 |

| blind | Is there a way I can get a fluxbox-like menu in gnome? | 20:33 |

When trying to add a share, i receive the following error: 'net usershare' returned error 255: net usershare add: failed to add share music. Error was Operation not permitted.

| shift_ | is there something I am missing? | 20:46 |
| Ace2016 | tech0007: i think defaults includes the auto option, thats why you add noauto if you do not want it to mount at boot time | 20:46 |
| Nubbie | shift_: what is Evan's debugger? | 20:46 |

| BulBulRed | Hello. I just installed a RAID0(stripe) onto 2 disks. Afther this i installed windows VISTA on it (50gb partion). I left 70 unallocated: for ubuntu and a data partion. The problem is when i try to install ubuntu he only see's one disk with the windows partition (sda) and the other sdb he see's nothing on... My guess is he can't work with my RAID controller. Any suggestions on how to to this? | 21:22 |

| Flannel | sjgibbs80: reformatting wouldn't get rid of the loader, but installing GRUB to the HDD (at the end of the install) would overwrite it | 21:26 |
| bandex | . | 21:26 |
| ikonia | BulBulRed: I'd suggest using a raptor for each OS, then decide how to divide up the storage | 21:26 |
| Cyber_Stalker | if i have ubuntu 7.4 installed and 7.10 on a cd in the drive how would i go about upgrading? | 21:26 |
| SirBijan | nobody knows how I can remove Totem starting up automatically when a movie inserted?! | 21:26 |
| Flannel | Cyber_Stalker: Is it a desktop CD or an alternate CD? | 21:26 |
| Cyber_Stalker | dekstop cd | 21:26 |
| Broadcom | Cyber_Stalker, why not upgrade to hardy? | 21:26 |
| sjgibbs80 | Flannel: I did find an option for that, and IIRC it didn;t have any effect. Sorted now though. | 21:26 |
| Cyber_Stalker | Broadcom i cant get hardy yet | 21:26 |
| BulBulRed | ikonia: ok, that would have been my second idea.. i think i will go with your plan and put the two storage hd's in NTFS | 21:27 |
| Broadcom | Cyber_Stalker, why not? | 21:27 |
| Flannel | Cyber_Stalker: you can't upgrade with a Desktop CD, just the alternate (or the internet as well, obviously) | 21:27 |
| BulBulRed | because i use a lot of files larger than 4gb | 21:27 |
| Flannel | Cyber_Stalker: only thing you can do with a desktop CD is re-install | 21:27 |
| broonsparrow | any idea what this means? | 21:27 |
| ikonia | BulBulRed: but don't raid them ! | 21:27 |
| ikonia | BulBulRed: if you want to share them - don't raid them | 21:27 |

| ritualmast3r | nice distro ;) | 21:38 |
| Agnostic | Will ubuntu ever have dvd copying software? | 21:39 |
| omar9417 | i have no open gl | 21:39 |
| Flannel | Agnostic: it does already | 21:39 |
| s3a | Agnostic: it alredy has | 21:39 |
| pilgrimage | Flannel: it does | 21:39 |
| flip2405 | Agnostic k3b | 21:39 |
| Jordan_U | !dvd | Agnostic | 21:39 |
| ubottu | Agnostic: For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs | 21:39 |
| s3a | Agnostic: u mean like encrypted dvds? | 21:39 |
| GhotiPhud | could someone help me clone a partition to another harddrive? | 21:39 |
| jjinco33 | I can use "Places --> Connect to server" from 1 PC to the other, but when going the other way I receive an error. | 21:39 |
| pilgrimage | so say i wanted it unstall it would the coding be something like apt uninstall firefox-2? | 21:39 |
| Agnostic | s3a, Yes. When I purchase a dvd, I always make a backup. | 21:39 |
| el_taco | fr34k in compizconfig click on preferences then there's an option to reset to defaults. | 21:39 |
| Agnostic | Until that happens, I can never leave windows. | 21:40 |
| genii | blankhead: Using kde-window-decorator --replace will attempt to use existing underlying KDE theme where possible inside Compiz. But I do find it crashes often | 21:40 |
| omar9417 | i have a ATI 200 m | 21:40 |
| s3a | Agnostic: i think k3b now can do that but k9copy does that i think but i use dvdshrink (windows app) in wine then use any normal ubuntu burn software to burn it | 21:40 |
| jamiejackson | what's the plan for firefox in Hardy? like will it update as the FF RCs and final come out? I could really use the Firebug Extension back, but it only works with FF RC1.... | 21:40 |
| flip2405 | My sound dose not work in my msn messanger or xchat.... it works in pidgen and frostwire and all that but i want it to work on msn to can some one help me | 21:40 |
| Jordan_U | Agnostic: I think that DVD copying software was available for Linux first as decss was made in the first place to be able to play DVD's on Linux | 21:40 |
| n2diy | Have the Breezy Repos been taken down? | 21:40 |
| Flannel | jamiejackson: for 8.04.1 yes | 21:40 |
| comicinke1 | I heard of a gnome applet where you can track the time of what you are doing, and by this keep control of your wasting time at the PC. What was the name of the applet? | 21:40 |
| Broadcom | jamiejackson, there are ways to fix this, google it | 21:40 |
| Flannel | n2diy: They have been for about a year now (since EOL) | 21:40 |
| Agnostic | I use DVD FAB with windows. It seems to work real well. I was hoping Linux had something like this. | 21:40 |
| genii | Bah wrong channel about KDE, etc... nvm me :) | 21:40 |
| tim167 | i followed http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2008/05/08/usb-ubuntu-804-persistent-install-via-the-live-cd/ but i get 'invalid bootable partition' can anyone help ? | 21:40 |
| omar9417 | but i wana install the new drivers but i dont know how | 21:41 |
| Flannel | n2diy: they're archived if you need to upgrade from Hoary | 21:41 |
| omar9417 | im bad working with the terminal | 21:41 |
| n2diy | Flannel, ok, can I use the Dapper Repos for Breezy? | 21:41 |
| fr34k | el_taco: that didn't work for me.. any other suggestion? | 21:41 |
| tim167 | can anyone help install ubuntu on a usb device ? | 21:41 |
| Captain_Hydro_Ll | I have a question. I want to install Ubuntu on a pc with winxp. I don't want to dual boot. I'm afraid I've alreay installed over xp and have the dual boot situattion. what can I do to Create a purely Ubunut mchine? Keep in mind I'm new to linux and installing os's in general. | 21:41 |
| Flannel | n2diy: Eh? No. Upgrade to dapper. Breezy hasn't received security updates for over a year now, time to upgrade to dapper | 21:41 |
| Jordan_U | n2diy: You should be able to upgrade to Dapper ( or is that what you are asking? ) | 21:42 |
| jamiejackson | Broadcom: you sure about that? i did modify the xml file of the installer, and it pretends it's installed, but firebug doesn't actually work properly, and on the firebug issue tracker they say it *doesn't* work with beta 5, not even Firebug 1.1 beta | 21:42 |
| s3a | Agnostic: try running that app thru wine in ubuntu then if u like it so much | 21:42 |
| flip2405 | My sound dose not work in my msn messanger or xchat.... it works in pidgen and frostwire and all that but i want it to work on msn to can some one help me | 21:42 |
| el_taco | fr34k might be something with your video drivers | 21:42 |
| Flannel | Captain_Hydro_Ll: So, you have a computer you want to make pure Ubuntu? | 21:42 |
| tim167 | did anyone successfully install ubuntu on a usb stick ? | 21:42 |
| s3a | Agnostic: u do no what wine is right? | 21:42 |
| Captain_Hydro_Ll | Yes! | 21:42 |
| Flannel | Captain_Hydro_Ll: pop in the CD, and install. Let it use the whole disk | 21:42 |
| jamiejackson | Broadcom: firebug 1.1 beta actually does install on FF3b5, but it just doesn't work | 21:42 |
| Agnostic | s3a, Yes. | 21:42 |
| Broadcom | jamiejackson, maybe i a wrong | 21:42 |
| Agnostic | s3a, A buggy program. | 21:42 |
| fr34k | el_taco: 'k changed 'backend' under compiz config to flat-file and it worked. | 21:42 |
| n2diy | Flannel, I just rescued a friends old Windows box, and it doesn't have enough RAM for Dapper, so I had to use Breezy. I'd like to get Abiword and Gnumeric installed on it? | 21:42 |
| Captain_Hydro_Ll | LOL, I was afraid of that, I don't hav a cd | 21:43 |
| flip2405 | Agnostic.... , so why not wine your old dvd ripping software and wine ay buggy | 21:43 |
| flip2405 | isnt* | 21:43 |
| Broadcom | n2diy, try xubuntu | 21:43 |
| el_taco | fr34k i'll have to remember that. | 21:43 |
| Jordan_U | n2diy: You sure it doesn't have enough RAM for a stripped down Dapper? | 21:43 |
| s3a | Agnostic: well u can use k3b and k9copy then... | 21:43 |
| Fogel1497 | I have a folder on my desktop that has a lock on it and i cant delete it. i tried sudo rmdir in the console but it wont lemme since its got folders inside of it. lots of folders | 21:43 |
| linux_dr | can anyone help me with automounting... I can do the leg work.. I just need to know where to look... what automounter does Heron use??? | 21:43 |
| tim167 | i have a usb stick which is seen as 2 devices, /dev/sda and /dev/sdb, i installed ubuntu to /dev/sda but it doesnt work, i get 'invalid boot partition' can someone help ? | 21:43 |
| faileas | i seem to be having some problems with sound, i'm getting a message that xine cannot initalise audio drivers from amarok. any ideas? | 21:43 |
| Flannel | n2diy: Dapper didn't use significantly more RAM than breezy. You could always switch to Xubuntu or some other lightweight WM. | 21:43 |
| Jordan_U | n2diy: Or for that matter a stripped down Hardy | 21:43 |
| Broadcom | tim167, i dont think ubuntu works on usb devises | 21:44 |
| ldiamond | Whats the package name for initrd-tools? | 21:44 |
| Flannel | n2diy: there's an archived copy of Breezys repos up: http://old-releases.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ switch your sources.list over to that and it'll work fine. Just remember, you're unsupported and potentially vulnerable | 21:44 |
| * Flare183 is here to help | 21:44 | |
| n2diy | Broadcom, Jordan_U, Flannel, ok on all that | 21:44 |
| Flannel | Broadcom: It does, yes. | 21:44 |
| tim167 | Broadcom: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2008/05/08/usb-ubuntu-804-persistent-install-via-the-live-cd/ | 21:44 |
| Jordan_U | n2diy: There is always software in linux that will stay light, and often ( like with FF3 ) gets significantly lighter with new releases | 21:44 |
| HabboTom | wont let me upgrade to hardy ;( | 21:44 |
| Agnostic | s3a, Is k9copy able to copy .. copyrighted discs? | 21:44 |
| Daisuke_Ido | Flannel: considering the recent ssh/ssl shenanigans, let's change that to "probably vulnerable" | 21:45 |
| Broadcom | tim167, Flannel ah, thought it did not | 21:45 |
| n2diy | Flannel, thanks, and it is a test box, so security isn't an issue. | 21:45 |
| s3a | Agnostic: i havent checked myself but i think k3b has added ripping capabilities to its alredy "burn a disc" options | 21:45 |
| Flannel | Daisuke_Ido: no. pre-feisty isn't vulnerable. Or at least, I know its not on Dapper, and I believe its not on Edgy. | 21:45 |
| ldiamond | Broadcom: I'm running Ubuntu on a USB Hard drive right now | 21:45 |
| ArthurArchnix | n2diy: Do a command line install of ubuntu... then add fluxbox and a few apps. THat thing'll fly. | 21:45 |
| tim167 | Flannel can you help me install ubuntu to a usb device ? | 21:45 |
| Agnostic | s3a, okay. | 21:45 |
| gj | anyone knows why system>>preferences>>appearance doesn't let my selected gtk2 theme (black) allows to make everything dark??the button stays grey and with that the task bar items as well | 21:45 |
| HabboTom | My 7.10 wont fetch it ;( | 21:46 |
| Daisuke_Ido | Flannel: hmm... breezy was before that... edgy might be vulnerable | 21:46 |
| Stwange | what's the terminal version of pidgin called? | 21:46 |
| ldiamond | tim167: is it a USB Hard drive? If so, unplug ur physical hard drives, launch the live CD, install from there. | 21:46 |
| Flannel | tim167: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation#head-86a18ab57715d9bb5f0dfaba497a928e67cd73ed is more help than I can give | 21:46 |
| Daisuke_Ido | nevermind then :) | 21:46 |
| ldiamond | it should work. | 21:46 |
| linksdragon | does anyone know how to get grub working without USB legacy support? My PC has no PS2 ports and no USB legacy option in the bios | 21:46 |
| Captain_Hydro_Ll | So, Flannel, you're saying in order to do this correctly I'll need a cd? | 21:46 |
| Flare183 | !chat | Stwange | 21:46 |

| HabboTom | I use kopete | 21:46 |
| Stwange | cheers MattJ | 21:47 |
| spainish | hello, can you access to http://www.xach.com/lisp/ ? | 21:47 |
| HabboTom | its better | 21:47 |
| spainish | please | 21:47 |
| tim167 | ldiamond: i tried several ways, for three days in a row, can get nothing to work, always fails at the last step: booting | 21:47 |
| Flannel | Daisuke_Ido: Well, it was put into debian in 6.09, at which point, Edgy had already had the import freeze, so I'm not sure Edgy is vulnerable. But I know dapper isnt. | 21:47 |
| el_taco | linksdragon have you looked for a bios update? | 21:47 |
| gwp | I am having problems installing Ubuntu on this machine, I am getting getting an xserver crash. I think its because of my Nvidia 6800. | 21:47 |
| Fogel1497 | I have a folder on my desktop that has a lock on it and i cant delete it. i tried sudo rmdir in the console but it wont lemme since its got folders inside of it. lots of folders | 21:47 |
| flip2405 | My sound dose not work in my msn messanger or xchat.... it works in pidgen and frostwire and all that but i want it to work on msn to can some one help me | 21:47 |
| flip2405 | HELP!!!!!!!! | 21:47 |
| Flannel | Captain_Hydro_Ll: You'll need some way to boot to the image, whether its CD, or USB, or whatever. | 21:47 |
| Daisuke_Ido | that's good, at least that makes it another release that doesn't have to be patched | 21:47 |
| linksdragon | el_taco, not yet. It's a fairly new computer, so I didn't even think about that. | 21:47 |
| Daisuke_Ido | just feisty - hardy | 21:47 |
| Broadcom | flip2405, if noone here can help you, file a bug | 21:47 |
| Myrtti | !sound | flip2405 | 21:47 |
| ubottu | flip2405: 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 | 21:47 |
| el_taco | Fogel1497 rm -rf <filename> | 21:48 |
| jamiejackson | Flannel: do you know if FF3 final will make it into 8.04.1? (and i see that that Hardy version hits july 3) | 21:48 |
| ArthurArchnix | flip2405: How'd you get msn messenger running? | 21:48 |
| flip2405 | Myrtti my sound works its just my msn sound | 21:48 |
| flip2405 | Arthurarchnix apt-get install amsn | 21:48 |
| Nubbie | flip2405: first of all, it's probably an issue with wine if you're running msn messenger. type winecfg and configure your sound options. | 21:48 |
| el_taco | Fogel1497 just be carefil not to mistype that | 21:48 |
| flip2405 | No | 21:48 |
| flip2405 | I use amsn | 21:48 |
| flip2405 | witch | 21:48 |
| ldiamond | tim167: is it your boot order? or is it while booting ubuntu? | 21:48 |
| Daisuke_Ido | flip2405: there's also emesene | 21:48 |
| flip2405 | is linux verson of msn | 21:48 |
| ldiamond | Can any1 tell me how to get the package initrd-tools ? | 21:48 |
| Flannel | jamiejackson: I'm not sure, it'll be at least an RC version (which is just as good). And firefox3 will continue to have bugfixes applied throughout Hardys lifecycle, so whatever we end up with is just in name only. | 21:48 |
| flip2405 | Daisuke_ido i know i dont like that one though | 21:49 |
| tim167 | ldiamond: nope, it starts booting alright but always fails | 21:49 |
| clintchance | Guys i need some help. i recently upgraded to .10 and the grub menu list i had is gone. i cant boot into vista anymore. Is there anyway to remove ubuntu and fix the mbr? | 21:49 |
| ghaleb | hello, what should I do to make gdm authenticates through LDAP server ? | 21:49 |
| ghindo | I just ran "sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade" but a package was held back. Why, and how can I fix this? | 21:49 |
| gwp | The fail I get is 'Failed to start the X server. Would you like to view the log?' When viewing the log I get "Fatal server error: no screens found" | 21:49 |
| Stwange | nah no help; I'm having trouble connecting to msn with 7.10, it started recently - it works eventually, but for example pidgin takes 8 hours to connect (no exaggeration) | 21:49 |
| ldiamond | tim167: and you tried unplugging all your hard drives before installing? | 21:49 |
| tim167 | ldiamond: the furthes i got was having the ubuntu login window, but after that it hangs | 21:49 |
| Flannel | clintchance: sure, boot to the Vista DVD, and you can reload the vista bootloader. Removing Ubuntu is as easy as deleting the partition | 21:49 |
| Stwange | I've tried pidgin, aMSN and finch | 21:49 |
| Fogel1497 | I can print to my printer, but when i insert a sd card into my printer it doesnt load to my computer. Any ideas? | 21:49 |
| spainish | please, can you access to http://www.xach.com/lisp/ ? | 21:49 |
| tim167 | ldiamond: furthest | 21:49 |
| Flannel | ghindo: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 21:49 |
| ldiamond | Oh well, then I'd get into verbose mode (ctrl alt f1) to see what happens | 21:50 |
| tim167 | ldiamond: also tried on 3 different computers | 21:50 |
| clintchance | Flannel, i have an acer. they didnt give me a disk. All i have is the ready upgrade for vista disk | 21:50 |
| jamiejackson | thx Flannel: last question, is there any package-friendly way to get a more current FF before july 3? (i don't think i can wait that long, as a web developer) | 21:50 |
| lordleemo | spainish: its there | 21:50 |
| ldiamond | I cant help you more than that, I didnt run into those problems | 21:50 |
| ldiamond | Can any1 tell me how to get the package initrd-tools ? | 21:50 |
| ghindo | Flannel: That didn't do it, either | 21:50 |
| narothepharoh | i am havind a problem with devede when i convert i get no audio it was fine before i upgraded to 8.04 any ideas? | 21:50 |
| spainish | lordleemo, sure? | 21:50 |
| ghaleb | hello, what should I do to make gdm authenticates through LDAP server, doesn PAM configuration enough ? | 21:50 |
| Broadcom | ldiamond, search symantic | 21:50 |
| lordleemo | spainish: yes | 21:50 |
| spainish | please, can you access to http://www.xach.com/lisp/ ? | 21:50 |
| tim167 | can anyone help me install ubuntu on a usb stick ? | 21:50 |
| Broadcom | !usb | 21:51 |
| ubottu | For information about installing Ubuntu from USB flash drives, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick - For a persistent live USB install, see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent | 21:51 |
| tim167 | Broadcom, i want to instal to a usb stick, not from a usb stick | 21:51 |
| Fogel1497 | !livecd | 21:51 |
| ubottu | The Ubuntu Desktop CD is a "LiveCD" which can be run without altering existing files on your harddrive. Especially useful for testing your hardware's compatibility, it also includes an install option. | 21:51 |
| lao_ | #ubuntu-us | 21:51 |
| Jordan_U | jamiejackson: You can get the latest binaries at any time from mozilla and just run them from inside your home folder ( so it won't conflict with a global installation ) | 21:51 |
| Fogel1497 | tim167 google "running ubuntu live cd off a flash drive" | 21:52 |
| tim167 | Broadcom: ah the second link is that, but i tried it and couldnt get it to work | 21:52 |
| clintchance | Flannel? | 21:52 |
| ldiamond | Broadcom: I am, I cant find it. Its apparently in Universe, how do I add Universe to the list? | 21:52 |
| Flannel | clintchance: That may be able to. Otherwise you have a few options, keep GRUB on a small partition to boot to vista, use something like Smart Boot Manager, or find some way to get the vista loader on there though... whatever methods the internet has to offer | 21:52 |
| Nubbie | tim167: it's persistent, which essentially means it's a usable installation. | 21:52 |
| Fogel1497 | I can print to my printer, but when i insert a sd card into my printer it doesnt load to my computer. Any ideas? | 21:52 |
| Broadcom | ldiamond, go to sofwhare sources | 21:52 |
| Jordan_U | ldiamond: System -> Administration -> Software Sources | 21:52 |
| jamiejackson | thanks Jordan_U | 21:52 |
| Broadcom | Fogel1497, does the printer really read the sd card for you computer? i have never heard of that | 21:53 |
| Jordan_U | jamiejackson: np | 21:53 |
| tim167 | Nubbie: i followed several tutorials, all go well in the process, but the actual booting always fails on some way | 21:53 |
| Blissex | Fogel1497: we are sorry but our clairvoyant operators are all busy on other lines. Don't call us, we'll call you. | 21:53 |
| clintchance | flannel, Wouldent happen to have vista with your bootloader by anychance? | 21:53 |
| linksdragon | anyone have any experience with an x-fi card under 8.04? | 21:53 |
| spainish | please, can you access to http://www.xach.com/lisp/ ? | 21:53 |
| ldiamond | Broadcom: then where should I go? | 21:53 |
| clintchance | spainish, whats it for? | 21:53 |
| Broadcom | ldiamond, check univese | 21:53 |
| tim167 | Nubbie, now, my last attempt using http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2008/05/08/usb-ubuntu-804-persistent-install-via-the-live-cd/ i get 'invalid boot partition' on boot | 21:53 |
| Fogel1497 | yah its got a little slot for an sd card and the photos show up on a preview on the printer, and i can open the files on the sd card from my computer on windows xp | 21:53 |
| ldiamond | Broadcom: the one with (universe) was already checked | 21:53 |
| el_taco | spainish works fine, | 21:54 |
| Flannel | jamiejackson: There may be someone with a repos (either PPA, or some other third party one), or you can just keep it in /opt for the time being, and then delete it once the package upgrades. Instructions for the latter: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxNewVersion | 21:54 |
| narothepharoh | i am havind a problem with devede when i convert i get no audio it was fine before i upgraded to 8.04 any ideas? | 21:54 |
| Flannel | jamiejackson: that page is a little dated, so the filenames/etc will be different, but the process is the same | 21:54 |
| ldiamond | Broadcom: When I do sudo apt-get install initrd-tools, it cant find the package | 21:54 |
| GhotiPhud | can someone help me clone a windows install onto a new bigger harddrive | 21:54 |
| spainish | this link refused my connection | 21:54 |
| Ntsunda | Hi. I'm installing 8.04 and have been sitting at "Starting Bluetooth" for about 15 minutes ... is this normal (I have no bluetooth hardware) | 21:54 |
| ldiamond | ghoti, there are some opensource ghost tools. or use Norton ghost | 21:54 |
| Broadcom | GhotiPhud, this is ubuntu only | 21:54 |
| jamiejackson | thx Flannel | 21:54 |
| Jordan_U | Ntsunda: No, that is not normal | 21:54 |
| Flannel | clintchance: No. It'd be some third party restore/diagnostic/whatever disk or something. UBCD4Win might be able to, I don't really know. You might try ##windows | 21:54 |
| narothepharoh | i am havind a problem with devede when i convert i get no audio it was fine before i upgraded to 8.04 any ideas? | 21:55 |
| GhotiPhud | Broadcom I want to clone this partition using the Hardy live CD | 21:55 |
| Coubacias | boas | 21:55 |
| clintchance | Flannel, Thanks il try irc windows | 21:55 |
| flip2405 | Ghotipud, you g-parted | 21:55 |
| flip2405 | Ghotipud, use g-parted | 21:56 |
| GhotiPhud | how would I do that | 21:56 |
| ldiamond | Broadcom: When I do sudo apt-get install initrd-tools, it cant find the package | 21:56 |
| tim167 | is anyone running ubuntu from a flash drive ? | 21:56 |
| amenado | ldiamond-> which tool within initrd-tools are you looking for? | 21:56 |
| spainish | please, can you access to http://www.xach.com/lisp/ ? | 21:56 |
| flip2405 | ghotiphud go to www.gparted.com | 21:56 |
| GhotiPhud | I have the live cd in and can see the internal HD and the external one I want to copy onto | 21:56 |
| Jordan_U | spainish: Why are you asking? | 21:56 |
| GhotiPhud | I opened up gparted, but I don't see a clone option | 21:56 |
| ghindo | I just ran "sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade" but a package was held back. "sudo apt-get dist-upgrade" didn't fix it either. How can I fix this? | 21:56 |
| spainish | i need a reliable answer | 21:56 |
| flip2405 | ghotipud come channel flip | 21:57 |
| el_taco | spainish it works | 21:57 |
| GhotiPhud | channel flip? | 21:57 |
| Flannel | ghindo: What package? and does it say why? | 21:57 |

| tim167 | my flash drive shows up as 2 devices, one is 1.5 MB and contains some kind of 'lock' application for windoze, might this prevent me from booting from it? and can i remove it? | 21:58 |
| el_taco | spainish I've said like 3 times that it works | 21:58 |
| ghindo | Flannel; The package is libtotem-plparser10, and it doesn't say why it's being kept back. | 21:58 |
| amenado | tim167-> not two devices, perhaps two partitions? | 21:58 |
| ldiamond | amenado: I compiled another kernel, I'm trying make modules_install and make install but I don't get the initrd file. | 21:58 |
| Nubbie | spainish: have you tried pinging it? it works. please stop disrupting the channel when there are alternative ways to solve your problem. | 21:58 |
| spainish | el_taco, and i've made 10 attempts and doesn't work | 21:58 |

| spainish | bye | 21:59 |
| HabboTom | I want cPAnel Compatible with Ubuntu ;( | 21:59 |
| el_taco | spainish if you can ping 207.5.178.19 then it's a dns issue | 21:59 |
| amenado | ldiamond-> look at your configure file and see if mkinitramfs is compiled as a module | 21:59 |
| tim167 | Jordan_U: i suppose useless for installing ubuntu on it ? | 21:59 |
| macd | HabboTom, prolly not going to happen, ebox should be a pretty viable option | 21:59 |

File a bug against this package at launchpad, as of now, there's not a whole lot you can do about it (well, there is, but it gets messy real quick). Having this held back is nothing to worry about, it won't break anything | 22:07 |
| Mudassar | amenado-> it is working with the other clients | 22:07 |

| Flannel | HabboTom: You can use alien to get the rpm to work, except the problem with that is that RPM based distros handle Apache an entirely different method as Ubuntu and other deb distros. Perusing the web, it looks like DirectAdmin supports Ubuntu | 22:12 |
| imamac | xFlipx> Yes. Maybe the wrong video driver, or visual effects too high for your machine | 22:12 |
| Mudassar | amenado, no it is different | 22:12 |

| Nubbie | hisingh1_: SSH is just a secure protocol though which VNC screen sharing can be tunnelled though, to make it more secure. | 22:22 |
| CarlFK | hisingh1_: you will | 22:22 |
| frostburn | etheredge, yes it does, you may need to install nfts-3g, although that seems to be in the default build now | 22:23 |

| amenado | hisingh1_-> just a heads up, if you are going across internet links, using vnc is insecure, and a bit slower.. | 22:23 |

| amenado | JontyO-> you are booting a liveCD disk or from a hd? | 22:24 |
| JontyO | amenado both dont work (tried wubi) | 22:25 |
| JontyO | livecd and hdd | 22:25 |
| lnar | the package is called vncviewer | 22:25 |
| matthew | CarlFK: that does samba | 22:25 |
| amenado | JontyO-> what did you do to attempt to boot from a hdd? and you have a running linux now dont you? | 22:25 |
| lnar | so in console you type vncviewer ip | 22:25 |
| matthew | Nubbie: really! that's insane. it was a good tool. how ridiculous. | 22:25 |

| matthew | CarlFK: not on my system. | 22:26 |

| amenado | JontyO-> try the alternate cd then..i dont know if it will fix your issues | 22:27 |
| Nubbie | CarlFK: he is not having connection issues, he's having filesharing issues. the utility that used to encapsulate samba and nfs shares has been dropped from support in favour of a per-user right click-on-the-folder samba sharing solution. | 22:27 |
| JontyO | :/ | 22:27 |

| linkmaster03 | Jezz: i've tried clearing my cache, reloading the browser, rebooting my comp, etc | 22:53 |
| Jezz | oh weird | 22:53 |
| tim167 | amenado: so the larg 'device' is where i installed ubuntu to | 22:53 |
| Jezz | for me the problem was gone | 22:53 |
| jumpkic1 | (trying to figure out if they all have "ipod" in their path somewhere) | 22:54 |
| Jezz | but once in a while i still get it | 22:54 |
| Jezz | mostly when i have multiple tabs with movies open | 22:54 |
| justworkalready | jumpkic1: you can call the mountpoint whatever you want, it just has to exist as a folder. putting in /media/ is probably a good idea | 22:54 |
| FluxMe | hello? | 22:54 |
| amenado | tim167-> so you do really have two physical usb drive right? not a single usb dongle that you said were detected as two drives? | 22:54 |
| evand | Jezz: /host in Ubuntu | 22:54 |
| Jezz | Can i browse the Windows partition if i installed ubuntu with WUBI? | 22:54 |
| justworkalready | jumpkic1: finding out the device name is a little trickier. it's gonna be /dev/something | 22:55 |
| linkmaster03 | why are my youtube videos in firefox pausing every 2 seconds? | 22:55 |

| Martiini | jessica , initrd runs before user login I think .. Im no pro but you can look up rc0.d rc1.d rcS.d etc | 22:55 |
| jumpkic1 | justworkalready: yeah, but by default mine mounts to "/media/GED's IPod"... I'm trying to figure out if they all have "ipod" in the string if they are automounted or if that is the actual volume name | 22:55 |
| jessica | thanks | 22:55 |
| tim167 | amenado, no! :) it is definitely just one usb stick, which shows up as two devices /dev/sda and /dev/sdb | 22:55 |
