| Redian | userwaldo: I don't see anything tht has the specific name or model of the wireless card. | 00:08 |
| soundray | tom__: start with what you know: the system you have, what you've installed and how, and exactly what kind of crash you are observing and when. | 00:08 |

| Flannel | linxuz3r: ah, theres no release version. Yes, it is too big. You'll either need to get a DVD, or use a thumbdrive or something. | 00:27 |

| Redian | belkinhelp2: Hmm, one sec. | 00:28 |
| itsallnoisetome | When I run lshw -C network, the Wireless Interface that comes up doesn't have the correct Product Name. It has the right manufacturer, but I believe a different model of network card.. I think this is leading to confusion with the network interface, and makes it take several minutes to connect to any wireless network. | 00:28 |
| soundray | chaqu1: try a 'sudo insmod ./ov51x-jpeg.ko' | 00:28 |
| chaqu1 | soundray do i need the tail? | 00:29 |
| Redian | userwaldo: Maybe I'll just install 7 | 00:29 |
| soundray | chaqu1: did it produce any errors? | 00:29 |
| Redian | userwaldo: Or reinstall 8 | 00:29 |
| fwaokda | Can someone help me update to Ubuntu 8.04 from 7.10 ? | 00:29 |
| Kungen354646 | my fn-keys arent working, can any1 help? They worked in 7.10, but not in 8.04 for some reason! | 00:29 |
| userwaldo | Redian: i was using 7.10, and didn't have any problems. | 00:29 |
| soundray | chaqu1: I mean the insmod | 00:29 |
| tux97 | hello | 00:29 |
| Redian | belkinhelp2: If there's noone else on the computer, you could just change the "Others:" option to Read and Write and be done with it. | 00:29 |
| chaqu1 | soundray im gonna paste this one its a one liner | 00:29 |

| soundray | chaqu1: :( | 00:30 |
| tux97 | userwaldo do you know the file and where its located to change the port for apache? | 00:30 |
| userwaldo | Redian: i did an upgrade, but when i installed 7.10 i had to do it 10 times or so to get what I wanted, but that was mostly because I was trying to do a custom install | 00:30 |
| Redian | belkinhelp2: Otherwise you could go make a group if you're in the root account by going into System > Administration > Users and groups | 00:30 |

| chaqu1 | soundray: does that make you sad? | 00:30 |
| soundray | chaqu1: yes | 00:31 |
| Redian | userwaldo: I just think its so odd because I was definitely on the internet last night. It's like something happened in 8 hours that it decided not to work | 00:31 |
| userwaldo | tux97: do you mean to change the default port for an appachy server? | 00:31 |

| ICM | Well, stupid question, I have a C2D, which copy of Ubuntu should I get? on the Download page, it says "What type of computer do you have?", and so I selected " 64bit AMD and Intel computers" | 00:31 |
| fwaokda | whats the ctrl alt del equivalent for ubuntu? | 00:31 |
| Redian | userwaldo: If you need hep with tux, I did that :) | 00:31 |
| chaqu1 | soundray: what does it mean? | 00:31 |
| belkinhelp2 | Redian...but that group does not show up as one of the groups listed | 00:31 |
| soundray | chaqu1: I suggest you try the driver source that Ubuntu supplies. 'sudo apt-get install ov51x-jpeg-source' | 00:31 |
| Kungen354646 | my fn-keys arent working, can any1 help? They worked in 7.10, but not in 8.04 for some reason! | 00:31 |
| ICM | but it gave me ubuntu-8.04-desktop-amd64.iso | 00:31 |
| userwaldo | Redian: go ahead, its been a long time since I've setup apache, and i haven't don't it on ubunut | 00:32 |
| chaqu1 | soundray how do i undo all the damage i may have done with this? | 00:32 |
| soundray | chaqu1: it means that the module you've compiled is not compatible with the running kernel | 00:32 |
| Redian | belkinhelp2: Hmm...I don't know then, I haven't had much experience with it | 00:32 |
| hexbase | fuck | 00:32 |
| soundray | chaqu1: you haven't done any damage. | 00:32 |
| belkinhelp2 | Redian...i get cdrom, scanner, audio, myself....but no "user" | 00:32 |
| Redian | userwaldo: Do you think you could help belkin with permissions? Im not too familiar with them | 00:32 |
| Redian | tux97: Hey you're trying to change your apache ports? | 00:32 |
| userwaldo | Redian: I'm assuming that the card is ok, becuase you said you can use it from windows | 00:32 |
| chaqu1 | soundray so just install that folder and start with the file from ubuntu? | 00:32 |
| tux97 | yes redian | 00:32 |
| Redian | tux97: It's really easy. | 00:33 |
| userwaldo | Redian: ok | 00:33 |
| tux97 | i know i lost my text file of what i had typed | 00:33 |
| tux97 | i forgot the name of it and where its located | 00:33 |
| Redian | tux97: You lost the config file? | 00:33 |
| mbuntu001 | fwaokda: what do you want to ctrl alt del for? | 00:33 |
| userwaldo | Redian: do you mean file permissions? | 00:33 |
| soundray | chaqu1: yes. Install the package -- it puts a tar.gz into /usr/src | 00:33 |
| Redian | tux97: ohh okay | 00:33 |
| tux97 | i mean my how to file | 00:33 |
| blind | My sound has left the computer... I had sound.. Now I don't. Alsamixer shows that all I have is a microphone, of course it's reading some usb device that I don't have... | 00:33 |
| Redian | userwaldo: Yeah, he's trying to make it so three users can access a folder | 00:33 |
| ICM | I have an Intel Core 2 Duo, which has 64-bit support, and I would like to utilize that. On the download page, I select " 64bit AMD and Intel computers" under the category "What type of computer do you have?", but it gives me ubuntu-8.04-desktop-amd64.iso -- ...amd64.iso? Is that acceptable? | 00:33 |
| ICM | ~_~ | 00:33 |
| belkinhelp2 | Do you have to restart Ubuntu for "users" and "groups" to take effect? | 00:34 |
| userwaldo | Redian: you need to create a group and give the group permissions to the file | 00:34 |
| RenatoSilva | some packages download stuff itself when installing them, e.g. macromedia flash and ms fonts. that's a mess, who agree? | 00:34 |
| tux97 | no restart the services belkinhelp2 | 00:34 |
| chaqu1 | soundray extract it to desktop? | 00:34 |
| soundray | chaqu1: extract this somewhere and do what you did before: make and sudo insmod ov51x-jpeg.ko | 00:34 |
| userwaldo | Redian: there are 3 levels of access. user, group, and world | 00:34 |

| tux97 | ok redian whats the name of it | 00:35 |
| userwaldo | Redian: he will want to change the group permissions, and also make sure that the file is owned by the group | 00:35 |

| itsallnoisetome | Can someone help me with Wireless troubleshooting? | 00:36 |
| Redian | belkinhelp2: I think you may have to change the owner of the folder to the group | 00:36 |
| belkinhelp2 | Tux97.....i just addes a list of users into a group. I dont see that group as an option under the Permissions tab of the folder im trying to share with others on teh same PC | 00:36 |
| mbuntu001 | fwaokda: if you want to kill a program then open Terminal and type 'top' to see the process | 00:36 |
| tux97 | oh ok | 00:36 |
| fwaokda | what if my mouse doesn't work (ie the system hangs completely, so perhaps I can only reboot) | 00:36 |
| Redian | userwaldo: Wow...the support channel is tricky. All this targeted messaging in one huge mass >.< | 00:36 |
| mbuntu001 | fwaokda: if your system seems to have hung then use ctrl + alt + backspace | 00:36 |

| fwaokda | mbuntu001, is there a way to update to 8.04 through shell? maybe the something is up with the update manager | 00:37 |
| belkinhelp2 | the share folders option seems to want to install services for Unix or Windows...im not trying to share across a network...just on the same PC....ARGH | 00:37 |

| Dante123 | Hi All, all kinds of troube with audacity and 8.04.....need some help....anyone please? | 00:42 |
| soundray | !checkinstall | W8TAH, a better way | 00:42 |
| ubottu | W8TAH, a better way: 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! | 00:42 |

| Flannel | pushpop: You can autologin to the GUI. And the config file is just a text file, so. | 00:42 |
| pushpop | Flannel where would I find that config file | 00:43 |
| belkinhelp2 | ok...i must have screwed something up here. The list of "groups" in the "User and groups" tab has just triplicated itself...in other words i know have 3 listing of user, admin, ntp, audio, scanner, etc | 00:43 |

| Redian | tux97: I think sudo apache2ctl restart also works | 00:44 |
| soundray | chaqu1: are you doing it? I want to log off soon | 00:44 |
| RenatoSilva | Flannel: that's the right? | 00:44 |

| Flannel | tuna: root shouldn't be doing anything in X | 00:46 |
| Darlok_Williams | soundray: Okay, well how do I make it work if there ARE symlinks? And Gnome's search for files app doesn't let you search recursively either. | 00:46 |

| branstrom | tuna: you could initialize it with an init script in /etc/init.d that you then symlinked to /etc/rcX.d where X is the appopriate number for the startup state you want it to launch in | 00:48 |
| Flannel | tux97: You'd have to use gksu, and you'd have to edit sudoers to make it work sans password | 00:48 |

| codecaine | hmm don't see it in the resportory I tried gsynaptics but it says xorg not configure to use it | 00:48 |
| Flannel | but, depending on if it just needs ot be run vs running in your session, | 00:48 |
| soundray | chaqu1: let's install a package called checkinstall. This will let you generate a .deb package with the driver. This makes it easier to uninstall. | 00:49 |

| soundray | chaqu1: 'sudo apt-get install checkinstall', then 'checkinstall --install-no' | 00:50 |

| tux97 | wow redian | 00:52 |
| soundray | Darlok_Williams: 'cd /path/to/dir ; find . -name filename 2>/dev/null' | 00:52 |
| chaqu1 | soundray: its alright, i got it going | 00:53 |
| mbuntu001 | fwaokda: any luck?? | 00:53 |
| soundray | chaqu1: when you're done, you can install the generated package with 'sudo dpkg -i packagename.deb' | 00:53 |
| Redian | tux97: Tell me about it >.< I feel like a total jerk | 00:53 |
| tux97 | i got a silly question about samba how come i have to add my other pcs ip in the host for the network configuration? | 00:54 |
| * Pelo wonders if there is a way to sortof test to see if his pwm controler is still visible and just not working or if it is someting else that is going on | 00:54 | |
| Pelo | tux97, try asking in #samba | 00:54 |

| Radit | please tell me how to label a ntfs drive? | 00:55 |
| becker_11 | etiquette | 00:55 |
| Pelo | Radit, just change the name of the mount point | 00:55 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Radit DO you just want the name on the desktop to display something relevant to the content of the drive? | 00:55 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Hi Pelo | 00:56 |
| chaqu1 | soundray: this is going completely over my head. | 00:56 |

| chaqu1 | soundray how do i tell it what i want in the package? | 00:56 |
| Pelo | wazup Jack_Sparrow ? | 00:56 |
| === tolecnal_ is now known as tolecnal | ||
| soundray | chaqu1: you don't | 00:56 |
| chaqu1 | just cause im building it within the dir? | 00:56 |
| * Pelo is 9 days from the end of the warranty on his mobo and it's been acting up | 00:57 | |
| Jack_Sparrow | Pelo just stopped in while trying to cool down... Radit Did you understand what we were saying | 00:57 |
| soundray | chaqu1: it should run 'make install' for you, but instead of putting the files directly into the system, it puts it into this .deb package, which allows apt to keep track of the installed files. | 00:57 |
| soundray | chaqu1: does it seem to be working? | 00:58 |
| soundray | chaqu1: if you're unsure, please run 'dpkg --contents packagename.deb' and pastebin the output | 00:59 |
| craigbass1976 | anyone in Arkansas? | 00:59 |
| chaqu1 | soundray i got it to work through the gui | 00:59 |
| chaqu1 | soundray: i know that was a sin...but it did work. | 00:59 |

| Flannel | jtaylor_: It was over a day ago? or did you have a different nick? | 01:00 |
| RenatoSilva | do the APT packages have built-in repository information? | 01:00 |
| soundray | chaqu1: are we? I don't understand. What were you doing? | 01:00 |
| minion35 | whats wrong with it craig? | 01:01 |
| jtaylor_ | Flannel: My bad... wrong channel | 01:01 |
| Flannel | RenatoSilva: no, deb packages dont, apt keeps track of that | 01:01 |
| fwaokda | how can i go about updating from 7.10 to 8.04? I've tried the update manager twice but both times now it totally freezes the entire system. | 01:01 |
| puff | soundray: Hiya, about that fsck problem... | 01:01 |
| Flannel | fwaokda: Do you have any third party repositories enabled? | 01:02 |
| Flannel | fwaokda: and, are you completely up to date with 7.10 stuff? | 01:02 |
| KHAnet | exit | 01:02 |
| fwaokda | Flannel, idk im new to ubuntu | 01:02 |
| Flannel | fwaokda: alright, pastebin your sources.list (/etc/apt/sources.list) | 01:02 |
| puff | http://paste.ubuntu.com/13151/ | 01:02 |
| netshark | guys the Kubuntu is KDE 4 or 3.5.9 ? | 01:03 |
| Flannel | netshark: Both. It depends on whether you get the remix CD or the non-remix CD | 01:03 |
| chaqu1 | soundray: no i got the package thing to work | 01:03 |
| soundray | puff: bad news, I think that's a hardware fault | 01:03 |
| soundray | chaqu1: did you install it? | 01:03 |
| chaqu1 | soundray yes | 01:03 |
| netshark | Flannel: what about the DVD it has the K included ? | 01:03 |
| netshark | the normal Ubuntu is bassed on what ? | 01:04 |
| chaqu1 | debian | 01:04 |
| chaqu1 | gnome | 01:04 |
| soundray | chaqu1: please run 'sudo depmod -a', then 'modprobe ov51x-jpeg', then restart camorama | 01:04 |
| netshark | aha :1 | 01:04 |
| Flannel | netshark: I believe the DVD is only 3.5, but #kubuntu would be able to help you more with those sorts of specifics | 01:04 |
| netshark | i like the K alot :P | 01:04 |
| netshark | dunno why | 01:04 |
| RedEyess | hi | 01:04 |
| netshark | thanks alot Flannel :) | 01:04 |
| NitroGlyceriX | Hi folks, is it possible to run several programs in the same script ? ie gpsd, festival and gpsdrive ? | 01:05 |
| netshark | yo RedEyess hi | 01:05 |
| fwaokda | Flannel, http://paste.ubuntu.com/13188/ | 01:05 |
| chaqu1 | WOOO | 01:05 |
| CorpseFeeder | Ok.. I am back to try and get help with my drives again. | 01:05 |
| chaqu1 | say it kinda works!!!! | 01:05 |
| RedEyess | are intel's 3945 wireless network drivers in the kernel for 8.04? | 01:05 |
| Flannel | fwaokda: Er, did you manually change this to hardy already? | 01:05 |
| hey_joe | trying to resize an HFS+ partition with the 8.05 liveCD, and everytime i use qtparted, parted, or gparted it says the drive is busy.. it is not mounted, and i have done swapoff -a | 01:05 |
| hey_joe | whats up? | 01:05 |
| meoblast001 | how do i use rhythmbox and ardour simultaneously | 01:06 |
| soundray | chaqu1: if it kinda works, we've done all the right things. You may have to set some parameters as suggested by that wiki | 01:06 |
| Pelo | NitroGlyceriX, I dont, see why not , if it's a bash script you use to start them put & at the end of each line , one command per line | 01:06 |
| chaqu1 | soundray: the image is all sorts of messed up it shows three of me | 01:06 |
| fwaokda | no, i've tried to upgrade through the update manager twice and it got to about 15% both times and then froze the entire system | 01:06 |
| RedEyess | or I mean hardy heron 8.10? | 01:06 |
| DemonicButthead | Which Nvidia driver set should I use for the GeForce 8800 gt if I want to have full utilization of Compiz Fusion, Xinerama, and dual monitor support? | 01:06 |
| chaqu1 | soundray you have my permission to log off thank you and goodnight | 01:06 |
| Jack_Sparrow | fwaokda What does your sources list look like | 01:06 |
| Pelo | RedEyess, hardy is 8.04, 8.10 is not out yet | 01:06 |
| soundray | chaqu1: how generous of you | 01:06 |
| fwaokda | Jack_Sparrow, , http://paste.ubuntu.com/13188/ | 01:06 |
| NitroGlyceriX | Pelo, just adding the character '&' and that's all ? | 01:07 |
| RedEyess | Pelo: Ok. | 01:07 |
| chaqu1 | soundray :-) | 01:07 |
| fwaokda | Flannel, no, i've tried to upgrade through the update manager twice and it got to about 15% both times and then froze the entire system | 01:07 |
| Flannel | fwaokda: alright, well, we can do this manually. I'd sort of like those sources to still say gutsy, but we can just verify that we have te right metapackages installed. | 01:07 |
| soundray | chaqu1: seeing three of you is a common side effect of alcohol ;) | 01:07 |
| Flannel | fwaokda: I saw you the first time | 01:07 |
| meoblast001 | how do i use rhythmbox and ardour simultaneously? | 01:07 |
| Pelo | NitroGlyceriX, adding & at the end of the line will tell it to go to the nesxt line when the current prog is started and not wait for it to end before executing the next one | 01:07 |
| RenatoSilva | Flannel: I don't understand why packages of Feisty for example, are not seen by APT on Gutsy | 01:07 |
| fwaokda | Flannel, ya - just making sure didn't know if you would see without your name there ;) | 01:07 |
| minion35 | does Art Manager crash with heorn for anyone else? | 01:08 |
| Pelo | RedEyess, intel stuff is generealy pretty well supported in linux in general | 01:08 |
| puff | http://paste.ubuntu.com/13190 | 01:08 |
| Nickod | I was going to open a ticket on this: e1000 thinkpad T60p ping 1000ms every other packet in 8.04 ; I've seen a few work arounds tried everything, one workaround works but seems to contribute to hanging the laptop... | 01:08 |
| Flannel | fwaokda: pastebin the output: apt-cache policy ubuntu-desktop ubuntu-minimal ubuntu-standard linux-generic | 01:08 |
| CorpseFeeder | I just installed Ubuntu 8.04 (again).. When I boot up I get grub error 17. I don't know how to fix this. | 01:08 |
| Pelo | minion35, just go directly to the art-gnome website | 01:08 |
| Flannel | RenatoSilva: because you don't have the feisty repositories still enabled | 01:08 |
| CorpseFeeder | I am booted up on the live CD now. | 01:08 |
| RenatoSilva | Flannel: they need to be reffered by some additional repository, even if the package is the exact same version on Gutsy and Feisty | 01:08 |
| Pelo | CorpseFeeder, what parttion is ubuntu on ? | 01:08 |
| Nickod | Anyone else familiar with the e1000 thinkpad 1s ping time problem? | 01:08 |
| RedEyess | Pelo: I know but there are times when I am using GNOME network manager and it just doesn't work. | 01:09 |
| puff | soundray: So I guess what I'm wondering is, what now? Should I just work through all the blocks in fsck and take the default value? | 01:09 |
| DemonicButthead | CorpseFeeder.. change the boot order of your drives in your bios | 01:09 |
| RenatoSilva | Flannel: but the package is exactly the same version | 01:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | fwaokda Looks ok, did you apt-get update after you # out the awm at the bottom.? | 01:09 |
| meoblast001 | how do you run 2 jack programs at the same time? | 01:09 |
| minion35 | Pelo : I did i just liked using Arts Manager from past editions :) | 01:09 |
| NitroGlyceriX | pelo : #!/bin/sh | 01:09 |
| NitroGlyceriX | festival --server & | 01:09 |
| NitroGlyceriX | gpsdrive, but festival does not seem to 'work' | 01:09 |
| Flannel | RenatoSilva: what? I don't understand what you're saying. | 01:09 |
| RenatoSilva | Flannel: APT would consider that package on cache as a Gutsy package | 01:09 |
| soundray | puff: you can run fsck -y instead | 01:09 |
| fwaokda | Flannel, http://paste.ubuntu.com/13191/ | 01:09 |
| Flannel | RenatoSilva: right, because it doesn't know about the feisty ones | 01:09 |
| === hiphophippotamus is now known as reiser | ||
| RenatoSilva | Flannel: I mean you have package aaa-1.2.3u3 | 01:09 |
| Pelo | CorpseFeeder, when you get error 17 type enter, then select the correct line fromteh grub menu , hit e to edit , select the root line, and change the (hd0,0) bit to reflect the location of your ubuntu partiton | 01:09 |
| === reiser is now known as bender | ||
| fwaokda | Jack_Sparrow, idk what your talking about :( im kinda new to ubuntu | 01:10 |
| RenatoSilva | Flannel: it is both in Gutsy and Feisty repos | 01:10 |
| soundray | puff: but I don't think it'll fix your drive. If you're lucky you'll be able to backup (some of) your data | 01:10 |
| Flannel | fwaokda: Is this an Ubuntu box? Alright, we'll need to switch those repos back. In that file, change all the "hardy"s to "gutsy"s and then let me know when you're done | 01:10 |
| Jack_Sparrow | fwaokda You added a couple repos to get that window manager installed.... then remarked them out | 01:10 |
| Flannel | RenatoSilva: But you don' | 01:10 |
| Pelo | NitroGlyceriX, pastebin your whole script somewhere so I can have a look | 01:10 |
| blizzardman1219 | i got a new wireless card, its the D-Link WUA-2340, and i got it working so that its blinking at me and reading wireless networks. i still can't connect to my encrypted network though because ubuntu isn't supporting this card's WPA-PSK. help! | 01:10 |
| Flannel | RenatoSilva: But if you don't have the feisty ones enabled, it doesn't know anything about them. | 01:10 |
| RenatoSilva | Flannel: I've got it in Feisty, store it on a cd and put it on APT cache of Gutsy | 01:10 |
| Pelo | RedEyess, try haveing a look i hte forum www.ubuntuforums.org | 01:11 |
| fwaokda | Flannel, ok 1 sec | 01:11 |
| puff | soundray: How do I exit out of fsck? quit and control-c don't seem to work. | 01:11 |
| NitroGlyceriX | Pelo, that's okay, dont't know how I remembered that but I put a double & after the festival --server, that seems to 'work' ;) | 01:11 |
| Flannel | RenatoSilva: mind taking this to #ubuntu-offtopic with me? This is getting away from support, and we'll have a lot less noise there anyway | 01:11 |
| RenatoSilva | Flannel: as Gutsy repos declares that same version exactly, it is supposed to "see" that package, which doesn't happen | 01:11 |
| Jack_Sparrow | fwaokda try this.. sudo apt-get update | 01:11 |
| meoblast001 | how do you run 2 jack programs at the same time? | 01:11 |
| RedEyess | Pelo: I am sometimes not sure where to look... because wireless networking works sometimes... and sometimes not | 01:11 |
| Flannel | Jack_Sparrow: no, he's gotta get his metapackages in order first | 01:11 |
| LadyNikon | anyone know off hand what programs saslauthd uses? | 01:11 |
| fwaokda | Jack_Sparrow, ok that worked whatever it did | 01:12 |
| soundray | puff: you need to hit Enter, then Ctrl-C very quickly before the next prompt | 01:12 |
| DemonicButthead | Which Nvidia driver set should I use for the GeForce 8800 gt if I want to have full utilization of Compiz Fusion, Xinerama, and dual monitor support? | 01:12 |
| LadyNikon | I am installing postfix. | 01:12 |
| Pelo | RedEyess, just do a search on the model , see if any other ppl have problems | 01:12 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Flannel Then I missed something.. | 01:12 |
| Jack_Sparrow | fwaokda great.. | 01:12 |
| jbroome | !nvidia | DemonicButthead | 01:12 |
| ubottu | DemonicButthead: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 01:12 |
| Flannel | Jack_Sparrow: He has no metapackages installed for some reason: http://paste.ubuntu.com/13191/ | 01:12 |
| Flannel | Jack_Sparrow: so, we have to roll back down to feisty, install them, then upgrade to hardy | 01:12 |
| Pelo | LadyNikon, try looking in package.ubuntu.com see what is has to say about your app | 01:13 |
| fwaokda | Flannel, I can't save the sources.lsit | 01:13 |
| LadyNikon | Pelo: how would i check for package compatibility? | 01:13 |
| Flannel | fwaokda: you need to open it as the super user, alt-f2 then `gksu "gedit /etc/apt/sources.list"` | 01:13 |
| Pelo | LadyNikon, should be listed in the details | 01:13 |
| LadyNikon | Pelo: it will only tell me.. my package to install.. | 01:14 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Flannel go for it... but you do mean feisty to gutsy then to hardy right | 01:14 |
| LadyNikon | okies ill look | 01:14 |
| Flannel | fwaokda: Save that, but don't bother closing the editor, since we'll be needing it again in a minute | 01:14 |
| crdlb | DemonicButthead: xinerama cannot work with compiz (or any other composite manager) on nvidia | 01:14 |
| Pelo | LadyNikon, if you already ahve it install check in synaptic, look in the properties | 01:14 |
| Flannel | Jack_Sparrow: Is he on Feisty? I thought he was on gutsy. Or, well, roll back to whatever he's got. Then go one further | 01:14 |
| fooks | hi there, quick question | 01:14 |
| ttmontoya | Im trying to modify xorg.conf file but i wont let me save it,how do I do it | 01:14 |
| fooks | im playing a game called soldat in wine | 01:14 |
| Pelo | fooks, go for it | 01:14 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Flannel I was just going by what you told me | 01:14 |
| Flannel | Jack_Sparrow: oh, I meant gutsy, not feisty. Still not into the whole "hardy is out" bit. | 01:14 |
| fooks | however, when i close it doesn't put my screen resolution back to normal | 01:15 |
| Pelo | fooks, ask in #winehq | 01:15 |
| fooks | so i have this itty bitty screen res and have to restart x to get it back to normal | 01:15 |
| puff | argh, this is not working. | 01:15 |
| LadyNikon | Pelo: properties will tell me all the programs that uses a specific part of a program. | 01:15 |
| CorpseFeeder | Pelo: um.. the first one. There are two hard disks. a 200Gb IDE and a 200Gb sata. I don't know which is which when I installed it because the installer does not differentiate between sata and ide. But I installed the root directory and swap space to the first drive in the list and the entire of the second drive in the list as /data. DemonicButthead: I tried changing the boot order in BIOS and it would not boot at all. | 01:15 |
| jdwilm | ttmontaoy: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 01:15 |
| DemonicButthead | Crdlb.. so if I use xinerama.. just because I can't use compiz or any other component manager doesn't mean I'm not getting full use of my graphics card necessarily? | 01:15 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Flannel np.. just checking | 01:15 |
| LadyNikon | Pelo: i cant use synaptic. its ubuntu server | 01:15 |
| fwaokda | Flannel, ok its saved now | 01:15 |
| jdwilm | make sure to save a backup! | 01:15 |
| Jack_Sparrow | jdwilm please use gksudo gedit ... it is important | 01:15 |
| minion35 | fooks: wine does this with alot of programs you could do it normally through System | 01:15 |
| Flannel | fwaokda: Alright, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install ubuntu-minimal ubuntu-standard ubuntu-desktop linux-generic | 01:15 |
| fooks | minion35, how do you mean | 01:16 |
| fwaokda | Flannel, I just recieved a lot of errors and fails | 01:16 |
| LadyNikon | hmm | 01:16 |
| Flannel | LadyNikon: apt-cache show [package] and apt-cache showpkg [pacjkage] | 01:16 |
| LadyNikon | is packages.ubuntu.com down? | 01:16 |
| Pelo | CorpseFeeder, if the root (hd0,0) line is change to root (hd1,0), or the other way around, this is not a permanent change, you 'll have to edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst file after you have booted to make it permanent | 01:16 |
| Flannel | fwaokda: pastebin them, lets take a look | 01:16 |
| crdlb | DemonicButthead: 3d acceleration should work; however, just use TwinView and compiz _will_ work | 01:17 |
| Flannel | LadyNikon: yeah, it has been for a few days now, really annoying | 01:17 |
| DemonicButthead | Crdlb.. if I use compiz or any component manager.. can I still have it run 2 separate X servers? | 01:17 |
| ubuntu | hijos de puta | 01:17 |
| CorpseFeeder | Pelo: ok | 01:17 |
| minion35 | fooks, reset your resouloution through the System menu . . . means you dont have to restart~ | 01:17 |

| Pelo | LadyNikon, I know there is away with apt but I don't know it | 01:17 |
| crdlb | DemonicButthead: separate Screens work work, but your best bet is to use TwinView, which uses a single merged screen | 01:17 |
| fwaokda | Flannel, http://paste.ubuntu.com/13195/ | 01:17 |
| Flannel | Pelo: apt-cache show [package], apt-cache showpkg [package], if that's what you're looking for. | 01:17 |

| Flannel | fwaokda: alright, pastebin that file, I imagine we'll be removing that file, but I'd like to double check first. Also, its gutsy, not gusty. Thats what all those errors were from. | 01:21 |
| fwaokda | ok | 01:21 |

| Jack_Sparrow | |[Petey]| does sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart bring it back? | 01:21 |
| fwaokda | Flannel, http://paste.ubuntu.com/13197/ | 01:22 |
| |[Petey]| | Pelo i was on wifi before going into suspend. I haven't tried being connected and then suspending | 01:22 |
| |[Petey]| | basically when I do ifconfig, all I see is loopback | 01:22 |
| SimonPhoto | I'm about to install Ubuntu via Wubi, and I have a question --- I'm usign Vista 32-bit, but I'm installing Ubuntu x86_64. Will this cause a problem? | 01:22 |
| Pelo | SimonPhoto, is your computer 64 bit ? | 01:22 |
| Bagualas | Why vinagre accept only 8 char password?? | 01:22 |
| |[Petey]| | come to think of it, this has only been occuring since upgrading to 8.04... cuz i can't even see the wifi anymore. On 7.10, i at least know wifi worked | 01:22 |
| Flannel | fwaokda: Pastebin that other file too, so we can make sure we don't need it before we delete it | 01:23 |
| fwaokda | i posted the other at the link aboe | 01:23 |
| fwaokda | *above | 01:23 |
| Pelo | |[Petey]|, try out what Jack_Sparrow suggested | 01:23 |
| NitroGlyceriX | Pelo, how do I add sudo xterm kismet in that same script ?, BTW, thanks, so far ;) | 01:24 |
| fwaokda | Flannel, here it is again incase the copy/paste didn't go through the first time. http://paste.ubuntu.com/13198/ | 01:24 |
| |[Petey]| | Jack_Sparrow, i'm going to try that | 01:24 |
| Jack_Sparrow | worth a shot | 01:24 |
| Pelo | NitroGlyceriX, one prog per line , & after the line, or just put the command in /etc/rc.local , that should also take care of it | 01:25 |
| Flannel | fwaokda: that's whats in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/sources.list.distUpgrade? Or whereever that file was? | 01:25 |
| Pelo | later folks | 01:25 |
| fwaokda | Flannel, yes | 01:25 |
| meoblast001 | ok... im getting ticked..... Hardy is extremely unstable and freezes left and right and all i want to do i record in Ardour and play music in Rhythmbox, but they're both JACK and jack is crappy and cant input and output to/from 2 sources | 01:26 |
| Flannel | fwaokda: right, pastebin that file please. Or did you already? | 01:27 |
| fwaokda | flannel, i did its here http://paste.ubuntu.com/13198/ | 01:27 |

| ttmontoya | Jack_Sparrow: can you give me that command for xorg.conf again | 01:27 |
| CorpseFeeder | damn | 01:27 |
| fwaokda | Flannel, that is the file: sources.list.distUpgrade | 01:27 |
| Jack_Sparrow | gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 01:28 |
| ttmontoya | Jack_Sparrow: Thank again | 01:28 |
| |[Petey]| | Jack_Sparrow restarting networking didn't work | 01:28 |
| Flannel | fwaokda: Oh, Sorry. I was scrolled up. | 01:28 |
| fwaokda | Jack_Sparrow, POTC Trilogy is on Starz HD atm :D | 01:28 |
| |[Petey]| | it's clear ( i just tested again) that the networking completely disappears when coming back from a sleep mode | 01:28 |
| SimonPhoto | Pelo: Yes, my PC has an Athlon TL-60 processor. | 01:28 |

| fwaokda | Flannel, ok its gone | 01:30 |
| |[Petey]| | Jack_Sparrow the laptop is a dell d610 if that's any help. I know that when i boot this laptop in windows, there some proprietary applet that can automagically disable the wired nic if the battery's unplugged to save power... is there anyway that can be affecting this? I haven't booted into windows in quite some time though | 01:30 |
| Flannel | fwaokda: alright, so now, sudo apt-get update, and we shouldn't get any errors | 01:30 |
| fernandoen | hablan espanol? | 01:30 |
| CorpseFeeder | My ubuntu installation won't boot. I get a grub error 17. Pelo told me to press enter when I get the error and edit the boot partition info or something, but I couldn't press anything at all when I get the error. The computer is locked up and I have to reset it. | 01:30 |

| ubottu | If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer).

| cygoku | I am having this error message, does anyone know what's the source of this problem ?? : (<unknown>:21425): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "default", | 01:31 |
| fwaokda | Flannel, no errors, done | 01:31 |
| jdwilm | CorpseFeeder: is it possible you have a thumb disk or media player plugged in? | 01:31 |
| Flannel | fwaokda: Alright, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop ubuntu-minimal ubuntu-standard linux-generic | 01:31 |
| fernandoen_ | ubuntu.es | 01:31 |
| meoblast001 | XiD': the problem is JACK... at least im pretty sure, cuz i have ALSA selected | 01:32 |
| Flannel | fernandoen_: /join #ubuntu-es | 01:32 |
| XiD` | meoblast001, ok. do you know how i can fix this? | 01:32 |
| fwaokda | Flannel, says all are at their newest versions | 01:32 |
| ledmushroom | what the heck would make the darn thing tell me no such file or dir when i know its there and is the users defualt home dir yet every time error 550? any ideas | 01:32 |
| Jav13r | NetworkManager development headers not found. <<<<<<< what does this mean? do i have to install kerner source or what | 01:32 |
| Flannel | fwaokda: Alright, thats Interesting. Go ahead and pastebin this then: apt-cache policy ubuntu-minimal ubuntu-standard ubuntu-desktop linux-generic | 01:33 |
| SeaPhor | CorpseFeeder, you may need to boot off of the live cd, and edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst from there | 01:33 |
| meoblast001 | XiD': no.. im asking you | 01:33 |
| CorpseFeeder | jdwilm: there is no such device plugged in. there is just two internal hard disks (an IDE and a SATA), an internal video card and an internal wireless card, and an internal DVD drive. | 01:33 |
| ahboy | hey guys i have a question, I have a very small harddrive and my space is almost gone on it, I added another one today is there any way to make another /usr onto the new harddrive? so when i apt-get install programs it will save them to the second harddrive. | 01:33 |
| === ari_stre1s is now known as ari_stress | ||
| jdwilm | CorpseFeeder: then i would recommend what SeaPhor said | 01:34 |

| ari_stress | morning all | 01:34 |
| duplaja | How long has packages.ubuntu.com been down, or is it just at my end? I noticed when I was having some problems w/ getlibs | 01:34 |
| SeaPhor | CorpseFeeder, or boot into recovery mode if possible | 01:34 |
| Flannel | duplaja: It is | 01:34 |
| CorpseFeeder | SeaPhor: how do I get to the /boot/grub/menu.list when the computer is booted in live CD mode? No such grub directory exists under /boot when I am booted into the live CD... | 01:34 |

| nmukh | hello all, I'm new at linux and i've spent a day trying to get my desktop wireless; i'm using wifi-radar and i run into an error "SET failed on device wlan0; Invalid argument" Any help would be much appreciated | 01:35 |
| alastair_ | How do I install mozilla-mplayer without installing firefox 3? i.e. how do I install it for firefox 2? | 01:35 |
| jdwilm | Going to have a hard time booting into recovery mode if grub is erroring during startup | 01:35 |
| Flannel | duplaja: I don't believe so, but I don't really know why. | 01:35 |
| duplaja | Ok, thank you. | 01:35 |
| CorpseFeeder | seaphor I can't boot in recovery mode - I can't get past grub error 17 remember... | 01:35 |
| meoblast001 | XiD': im confused... i just need sound from all programs instead of just one, back like how gutsy used to have it | 01:35 |
| ahboy | any ideas with linking a second hard drive so i can apt-get programs and have them saved to the second harddrive | 01:35 |
| mjs7231 | Can someone help me with Video Drivers? | 01:35 |
| mjs7231 | they just stopped working today.. I have no clue why | 01:35 |
| Jav13r | NetworkManager development headers not found. <<<<<<< what does this mean? do i have to install kernel source or what | 01:36 |
| XiD` | meoblast001, i'm having issues with sound on my own, i'm not really equipped to answer your question sorry | 01:36 |
| mjs7231 | if I goto SYSTEM >> ADMIN >> Hardware Drivers, it says No Proprietory drivers are in use on this sytem | 01:36 |
| jdwilm | CorpseFeeder: when you boot into the live CD, you should be able to mount the drive containing your file system | 01:36 |
| rapid | slimjimflim: newb | 01:36 |
| SeaPhor | CorpseFeeder, its there in the unmounted root directory, | 01:36 |
| slimjimflim | rapid, lol, ty | 01:36 |
| meoblast001 | XiD': know of any non-jack audio players? | 01:36 |
| Flannel | fwaokda: alright perfect. Now change the gutsys back to hardys | 01:36 |
| CorpseFeeder | SeaPhor: how do I get to that? | 01:36 |
| meoblast001 | or i'll have to use my ps3 to play audio | 01:36 |
| meoblast001 | which is very unconvienient | 01:37 |
| mjs7231 | Is there a program I can run and it will search for Drivers for my system!? | 01:37 |
| tmapj | can anyone tell me where i can find some block lists? | 01:37 |
| SeaPhor | CorpseFeeder, 1 sec, i'll do on laptop as we speak | 01:37 |
| bruenig | blocklists are useless | 01:37 |
| mjs7231 | Sorry im a little freaking out, my system was rendered useless and I need it tonight. :( | 01:37 |
| danbhfive | mjs7231: what driver is missing, and the answer I think is no | 01:37 |
| bruenig | that is, unless utterly pointless false security makes you feel better, then they have a use | 01:37 |
| cgentry72 | can someone help me? i have alien arena but no sound. | 01:37 |
| SimonPhoto | In the Wubi installer, I can't select a size other than those in the dropdown? | 01:37 |
| mjs7231 | danbhfive: I am running on NVIDIA card | 01:38 |
| fwaokda_ | Flannel, sry the computer lockedup... dont know why :( | 01:38 |
| danbhfive | mjs7231: has the restricted-drivers-manager failed you? | 01:38 |
| Flannel | fwaokda_: Well, its a good thing it did now and not later. So, change gutsy to hardy | 01:38 |
| fwaokda_ | Flannel, I must not have gotten you last message. Last thing I saw was before I gave you the pastebin link | 01:39 |
| tmapj | can anyone tell me where i can find some block lists? | 01:39 |
| mjs7231 | danbhfive: It was working fine for about 6 months until today.. Hardy is not popping up the restricted driver thing. I went to Package Manger and reinstalled nvidia-glx-new | 01:39 |
| mjs7231 | and that made it a little better | 01:39 |
| SimonPhoto | Once I install inside Windows, and decide I want to wipe Windows from this PC, is there any way to do so easily? Or should I just copy out my / and /home directories, install clean, and copy everything back in? | 01:39 |
| mjs7231 | but its still a distortded resolution, and the screen scrolls because it thinks my monitor is a smaller resolution than it really is.. | 01:40 |
| Flannel | fwaokda_: I know. we're changing to hardy now, since our stuff looks good | 01:40 |
| nmukh | can someone help with wifi-radar | 01:40 |
| fwaokda_ | Flannel, ok so what do i do now ? It locks up with the update manager | 01:40 |
| danbhfive | mjs7231: are you using compiz? | 01:41 |
| Flannel | fwaokda_: right, we're not going to use update manager. Change your sources.list to hardy from gutsy | 01:41 |
| |[Petey]| | is there anyone who knows how i can fix this phenomenon of my NIC's disappearing when i come back from suspend/hibernate? ifconfig shows nothing but lo. If i restart they are there though. It really defeats the purpose of having this on a laptop like this | 01:41 |
| fwaokda_ | oh ok my bad | 01:41 |
| mjs7231 | danbhfive: I was, but they won't load anymore because of the driver issue | 01:41 |
| fwaokda_ | Flannel, what was that nifty alt f2 trick you showed me to edit that file again? :-) | 01:41 |
| SimonPhoto | Petey -- are they just turned off? try "sudo ifconfig eth0 up" | 01:42 |
| cgentry72 | the alsa sound system is not present or busy> what does this mean when I have sound? | 01:42 |
| SimonPhoto | replace eth0 with your NIC's logical ID | 01:42 |
| fwaokda_ | nvrmind its saved in the program | 01:42 |
| |[Petey]| | SimonPhoto ifconfig -a shows nothing... i can't do that if it doesn't exist accoring to ifconfig | 01:42 |
| Flannel | fwaokda_: alt-f2 (opens run) then gksu "gedit /etc/apt/sources.list" | 01:42 |
| * SimonPhoto shrugs | 01:42 | |
| danbhfive | mjs7231: so its turned off? Maybe you can reconfigure xorg, then reinstall nvidia-drivers, and leave off compiz for now | 01:42 |
| SimonPhoto | outside of my depth then | 01:42 |
| SimonPhoto | sorry | 01:42 |
| |[Petey]| | i tried to restart network services (/etc/init.d/networking restart) and that didn't work either | 01:42 |
| CorpseFeeder | SeaPhor: I think it comes up under /media/disk/boot/grub.... | 01:43 |
| fwaokda_ | Flannel, ok so after i change all the gutsy to hardy then i do what? | 01:43 |
| TheNerdGotchU | cant you program shell script in the shell | 01:43 |
| TheNerdGotchU | if so | 01:43 |
| TheNerdGotchU | how | 01:43 |
| SimonPhoto | I wonder if they'll fix it so we can use hibernate if installed via Wubi... | 01:43 |
| TheNerdGotchU | ? | 01:43 |
| mjs7231 | danbhfive: There must be a way to know how it was configured before today, right.. I am a newb when it comes to the xorg config.. | 01:43 |
| Flannel | fwaokda_: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade (and then wait for it to finish) | 01:43 |
| fwaokda_ | ok wish meh luck | 01:43 |
| mjs7231 | How do I know what Driver's are loaded? it seems there is nothing in the Admin Menu to help me with it | 01:43 |
| SeaPhor | corps, i think too, am just wanting to make sure i dont tell you wrong, and my laptop is being a pain | 01:44 |
| mjs7231 | Except the restricted Driver's menu which is not working.. | 01:44 |
| |[Petey]| | i might also add it was working just fine until i did the upgrade to 8.04 - which has sucked ass til now | 01:44 |
| === aron_ is now known as feyhart | ||

Does the new version not automatically install a root user? I can't imagine it wouldn't... | 01:46 |
| danbhfive | mjs7231: I dont know | 01:46 |
| Falling-Inferno | SimonPhoto: Check the AppDB on Wine. | 01:46 |
| SeaPhor | CorpseFeeder, do you see that?/ | 01:46 |
| mjs7231 | danbhfive: This may have happened with a failed synaptec package manager install earlier today.. | 01:46 |
| CorpseFeeder | SeaPhor: it's not there | 01:46 |

| SeaPhor | CorpseFeeder, that is really weird, can you browse to it in the gui, and make sure its set to view hidden files? (i dont know how in CLI) | 01:51 |
| Flannel | fwaokda_: There is no rest of install. You're upgrading, it may prompt you ocassional for config file conflicts (if you've done manual editing), but apart from that, you're just waiting. | 01:51 |

| CorpseFeeder | SeaPhor: the directory is the same with hidden files shown | 01:51 |
| danbhfive | AaronMT: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 01:51 |
| Falling-Inferno | Go to a flash site, It will say you need a plugin then select and install. | 01:52 |
| Jav13r | is there any way i could use ProxyChains to proxify ALL applications at once? | 01:52 |
| dtolj | AaronMT: it should be straight forward, go to adobe site and install the .tgz package, extract, and run the setup | 01:52 |
| supertard | AaronMT, that was my question | 01:52 |
| danbhfive | AaronMT: though, that breaks java | 01:52 |

BUT I JUST FOUND a section under nvidia settings > GPU > Powermizer that says my GPU performance is 0! my clock is 425Mhz but my memory clock is 0MHz. Is this an indication that my GPU is making my CPU do all the work? How can I fix it? | 02:12 |

| bderrly_ | mookinator1313, basically, if you're running ubuntu you probably have every driver ("kernel module") already available | 02:30 |
| xim | bazhang: ok, i have been asking in there too as well as #nvidia but thanks anyway | 02:30 |
| jaffarkelshac | i am very frustrated, my browsers keep crashing epiphany and firefox. i use flash tutorials for playing instruments and they keep crashing, there has to be a solution. any suggestion would be appreciated | 02:31 |
| mookinator1313 | ok, so, then i dont need to install any drivers? | 02:31 |
| larson9999 | i don't know what's the deal. every day i have one crash kinda soon after i boot. usually between 10 minute to an hour. it's always when i click on another application from the the taskbar. i have to push the power button to shutdown and then reboot. after that no issues all day. | 02:31 |
| mookinator1313 | ive got ubuntu 8.04 | 02:31 |
| Dr_willis | mookinator1313, totally depends on your exact hardware. | 02:31 |
| larson9999 | jaffarkelshac, believe it or not it's better for flash than it used to be. | 02:32 |
| mookinator1313 | evga 780i and Radeon HD3650 | 02:32 |
| tmapj | does anyone here know about IPblock? | 02:32 |
| Dr_willis | mookinator1313, i have NEVER needed to install anything from like the 'video card makers' disk, or stuff like that. | 02:32 |
| Falling-Inferno | Im having a problem with banshee can someone help me fix it here is the output of my terminal http://paste.ubuntu.com/13209/ | 02:32 |
| Dr_willis | mookinator1313, the ati and nvidia and other drivers you might want . are downloadable from the package manager tools. | 02:32 |
| jaffarkelshac | larson9999, i hope it gets better | 02:32 |
| mookinator1313 | ok, then how can i make CS:S work right? | 02:32 |
| pushpop | How would you attach a iscsi device in ubuntu? | 02:32 |
| curtis | if i want to install vista and ubuntu which one should i install first? | 02:33 |
| jaffarkelshac | larson9999, i have been asking for a while and from the lack of response i guess there is no fix | 02:33 |
| bderrly_ | curtis, vista first | 02:33 |
| Falling-Inferno | !dualboot | curtis | 02:33 |

| Dr_willis | mookinator1313, if you are refering to a windows game.. You want tio use the 'wine' program. and of coruse get your ati drivers installed first. I dont mess with ATI. Good luck. | 02:33 |

| auntieNeo | umm... how come freedoom is a dependancy for prboom? that makes no sense... I don't want to install freedoom, I don't have any hdd to spare | 03:05 |

| MuddClub_Guest | can someone help me with smtp authentication through postfix / mysql / virtual users? i used this guide (http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual-users-and-domains-with-postfix-ubuntu-7.10) and everythign works but smtp auth | 03:06 |
| auntieNeo | is it possible to install stuff with apt while ignoring dependancies? | 03:06 |
| MuddClub_Guest | tried, reinstalled ubuntu and tried again same results | 03:06 |
| Flannel | auntieNeo: No, that defeats the purpose of package management. What do you want to install? | 03:07 |
| astro76 | auntieNeo: looks like the dependency is freedoom | doom-wad-shareware, the second one is a lot smaller | 03:07 |
| auntieNeo | well your package management fails xD | 03:07 |
| chetnick | hi, guys this questions is not related that much to this channel, but i am running ubuntu on vmware, on the real machine i prefer to compile my own kernel. Is it gonna be worth to compile it on vmware, or it is not going to make any difference? | 03:07 |
| d4t4min3r | can anyone here help me with a dynex dx-ebdtc wireless card issues... it wont work at all | 03:07 |
| aoeuid | is there any way to manually set a location for the hibernation file (with ram contents) to be saved to? | 03:08 |
| stormzen | chetnick: From what I understand, it will be much more painful to compile anything in a VM. | 03:08 |
| aoeuid | since I don't have the needed space on / | 03:08 |
| auntieNeo | lol... neither freedom nor the shareware doom are dependancies for prboom... I guess I'll just install prboom by tarball... apt has failed me :\ | 03:08 |
| chetnick | stormzen: so, you are saying not to bother with that .. :) | 03:09 |
| astro76 | auntieNeo: sounds like just one package that has inappropriate dependencies perhaps... not apt | 03:09 |
| auntieNeo | 'kay... I'll file a bug report then | 03:09 |
| aoeuid | anyone? change hibernate file location? | 03:09 |

| tmapj | bderrly, are u available? | 03:14 |
| bderrly | tmapj, somewhat | 03:14 |
| SeaPhor | d4t4min3r, i have a how-to on ndiswrapper but you may have to substitute your own info | 03:14 |
| d4t4min3r | i had wicd installed | 03:14 |
| klepto | crdlb, it blank and says no propiertary drivers are on this system | 03:14 |
| d4t4min3r | and it wouldnt pick it up either | 03:14 |
| d4t4min3r | well... | 03:14 |
| ltcabral | can i connect to another servers with xchat-gnome? | 03:14 |
| crdlb | klepto: ensure that linux-generic is installed, then try again | 03:14 |
| d4t4min3r | my card wont turn on period | 03:15 |
| d4t4min3r | on the back of the machine its not on.. no lights are on | 03:15 |

| klepto | crdlb, linux-generic is installed. I see it through synaptic | 03:16 |
| belorix112 | CAN someone please help me with Nvidia, my Restrictd Driver isnt workiing, ive already un checked and resrted, revcheck, restarted and its still not working | 03:16 |
| spx2 | if I have freespace on a device does dd take that also ? | 03:16 |
| bderrly | tmapj, the ubuntu package will probably have it start at boot by default | 03:16 |
| crdlb | klepto: I don't know why it's not showing up then, but you do need to install the nvidia driver somehow | 03:16 |
| meth| | ok I downloaded supergrubdisk, but when I burned it to a cd, it couldnt get supergrub to start | 03:16 |
| SeaPhor | belorix112, what nvidia card do you have? | 03:16 |
| bderrly | tmapj, you can check for a file like Sxxipblock in /etc/rc2.d/ (xx == 2 digit number) | 03:17 |
| meth| | any other ideas how I can fix this grub error 22 problem? | 03:17 |
| belorix112 | nVidia Corporation C51 [GeForce 6150 LE] | 03:17 |
| tmapj | bderrly, i dont understand what you're talking about | 03:17 |

| bderrly | tmapj, read the docs on it | 03:18 |
| SeaPhor | belorix112, I have same in my laptop, works fine with restricted drivers, what issues? | 03:18 |
| meth| | i got rid of ubuntu and now I get a grub error 22 when I boot my computer. how can I fix it? | 03:18 |
| meth| | supergrubdisk isnt working | 03:18 |
| crdlb | klepto: nvidia-glx-new | 03:18 |
| bderrly | tmapj, though, like i said, i'm fairly sure the package would set it to start at boot by default | 03:18 |
| crdlb | klepto: then run: sudo nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-glx-visuals -d 24 | 03:18 |
| bderrly | you can also look to see if it is running with `ps -elf | grep ipblock` | 03:18 |
| crdlb | and reboot | 03:18 |
| belorix112 | Seaphor, it isnt working, ive already tried restarting and stuff after unchecking it and rechecking the box it isnt working, before i had to reinstall the restricted driver but IDK how | 03:18 |
| Pimps | what does this mean You have been killed by services2.dal.net ((Autokilled: You match the pattern of a known trojan, please check your system with a cleaner from http://www.moosoft.com or Swat-it from http://www.lockdowncorp.com/bots/downloadswatit.html [AKILL ID: OS21211163314-100])) | 03:19 |

| orudie | how do i stop mysql server ? | 03:20 |
| bderrly | orudie, sudo /etc/init.d/mysql stop | 03:20 |
| belorix112 | Seaphor, in restricted driver it says not in use no matter what i do, hence the reason i need to reinstall it but IDK how | 03:20 |
| Starnestommy | Pimps: that's something that has to do with dalnet. I think http://klines.dal.net might have some more information on it, but that's not exactly something for this channel | 03:20 |
| Pimps | i am unable to connect to that site | 03:21 |
| Starnestommy | Pimps: er, it's http://kline.dal.net | 03:21 |
| SeaPhor | belorix112, check to see if it is blacklisted, 1 sec while i get the how to on that | 03:21 |

| charlie_ | bderrly: I have one then what do I do? | 03:22 |
| Flannel | fwaokda: We're hoping the freezes are GUI only, ad not full system, so we'll hopefully b able to finish if we do it without a GUI | 03:22 |
| Jordan_U | Inazad, /join #php | 03:23 |
| max_ | Daisuke-Laptop, Speaking of 64bit, I have a quad core Intel Q6600 , that Is 64bit right? Right now I am using 32bit ubuntu with 3GB ram. If I had 64bit, would It run faster? A lot faster? | 03:23 |
| fwaokda | Flannel, ok TY so much -- this would be eons harder without you buddy ;) | 03:23 |
| EoRaptor | I'm also new to XChat -- or any irc, as opposed to IM, so forgive me if I seem to be fumbling. | 03:23 |
| Starnestommy | Pimps: follow the insturctions at http://www.dal.net/admin/contactkline.php3 for finding out how to get that k-line removed | 03:23 |

| MaloMax | So, what do y'all use Linux for mainly? | 03:23 |

| charlie_ | yep - anything else | 03:24 |
| klepto | yes | 03:24 |
| max_ | Daisuke-Laptop, I know Intel Q6600 supports 64bit. Just wondering if it's worth the switch to the x64 OS, since I know there's software compatibility issues | 03:24 |
| Jack_Sparrow | SeaPhor Please use gksudo gedit.... | 03:24 |
| crdlb | klepto: I don't know why it would say that then | 03:24 |
| Jordan_U | MaloMax, This is just the support channel, try #ubuntu-offtopic | 03:24 |
| crdlb | klepto: the default is 24 though, so it might be ok | 03:24 |
| Lapinux | what do i need in order to play dvds? | 03:24 |
| Daisuke-Laptop | max_: the compatibility issues are minor and most center around proprietary software, especially java and flash | 03:24 |
| Starnestommy | !dvd | Lapinux | 03:24 |
| SeaPhor | Jack_Sparrow, yes, sorry forgot to edit the copy/paste | 03:24 |
| ubottu | Lapinux: 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 | 03:24 |
| justin__ | hey how would i set up a new ip address | 03:24 |
| klepto | so just leave it alone or just take out -d 24? but still run that command? | 03:25 |
| Jack_Sparrow | SeaPhor np | 03:25 |
| belorix112 | Seaphor, its not int here | 03:25 |
| SeaPhor | belorix112, ok try this, just look for now,, gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | 03:25 |

| Daisuke-Laptop | max_: you will probably see a bit of an improvement, but nothing insanely drastic, i would imagine | 03:25 |
| max_ | Daisuke-Laptop, Ah, ok that helps a lot. I know how to fix flash for x64, and Java I could care less about | 03:25 |
| max_ | Daisuke-Laptop, I heard its about 10% performance, CPU wise | 03:25 |
| charlie_ | bderrly: what tool do I use to set the IPs in the same netblock | 03:25 |
| Pimps | justin_ change your mac address and that should change your ip address | 03:25 |
| bderrly | charlie_, /sbin/ifconfig | 03:25 |
| Starnestommy | iliyas: when starting xchat with a url, you need to use "xchat --url=irc://server.name/channel" | 03:25 |

| Pimps | justin_: you want to change your ip public ip right not private? | 03:27 |
| YixilTesiphon | is that a problem or all cool | 03:27 |
| === Kolie2 is now known as Kolie | ||
| justin__ | yeah public | 03:28 |
| Pimps | ok | 03:28 |
| === Kolie is now known as kolie | ||
| daemon3 | What? Suddenly my nvidia driver disappeared! No compiz! Anyone else have that problem? | 03:28 |
| Pimps | do you have a router | 03:28 |
| orionr | Hey guys i just added a user to my ubuntu server. How do i add them to the same usergroup that i am a part of. So that they can use sudo? | 03:28 |
| ibleed | max_, its http://boinc.berkeley.edu, the boinc client and boinc manager is in the repos. you wont even notice a slow down | 03:28 |
| justin__ | yeah | 03:28 |
| belorix112 | Seaphor, i simply need to reinstall it, it happened before, but idk remeber how to do it | 03:28 |
| max_ | ibleed, I do use Adobe products under virtualbox, for work. But when I'm not working at home, my computer is pretty idle. Overclocked quad core processor, 3.0ghz with 3gb DDR2 800mhz | 03:28 |
| Pimps | what make and model is it | 03:28 |
| daemon3 | Maybe restarting would help. | 03:28 |
| justin__ | lynksys-G | 03:28 |
| justin__ | need the serial? | 03:29 |
| justin__ | so i need to basically log into my router and set it up from there ? | 03:29 |
| ibleed | max_ that would be a good use if its idle. i've got a dual core 3.0 non-overclocked. its comforting to know that while my computer isn't doing anything, its at least doing something positive for the world | 03:29 |
| stoneDJay | Hi...Is the compiz on Ubuntu the fusion fork or simple compiz? | 03:29 |
| Starnestommy | stoneDJay: it's compiz-fusion | 03:29 |
| crdlb | stoneDJay: compiz fusion is not a fork of compiz | 03:29 |
| stoneDJay | crdlb: isnt? | 03:30 |
| crdlb | it is purely complimentary to compiz | 03:30 |
| stoneDJay | hmm ok | 03:30 |
| sportman1280 | what is the best way to mount a network drive thats fat32? I am trying to get better transfer speeds than 3.8MB/sec | 03:30 |
| ZantiOSX | join #perl | 03:30 |
| tmapj | could anyone tell me what the channel is for ubuntu studio? #ubuntustudio doesn't exist | 03:30 |
| stoneDJay | http://wiki.compiz-fusion.org/CompizFusionVsCompiz | 03:31 |
| max_ | ibleed, Well, the hotter your CPU is, the less it's life-span. Also here in the desert, leaving my computer on all day makes my apartment hot as heck. But it's on anyways, so a few more cycles wont hurt my wallet anyway. The CPU its self only cost a hundred bucks or so | 03:31 |
| SeaPhor | belorix112, I'm sorry but i dont know how to re-install a restricted driver that came with your ubuntu install, other than looking for it on the live cd, but even then that is something i have never done yet | 03:31 |
| Pimps | what serial? | 03:31 |
| joshual | hi folks, can I download gutsy to hardy update to a disk? | 03:31 |
| orionr | How do i add a user from the commandline? | 03:31 |

| mookinator1313 | how do i disable pulseaudio? | 03:31 |
| crdlb | tmapj: try again :) | 03:32 |
| max_ | tmapj, #ubuntu-studio | 03:32 |
| spx2 | it f**** worked !!!! | 03:32 |
| spx2 | sudo dd if=/dev/sda1 | ssh spx2@192.168.1.3 "(cd /home/spx2/backup_laptop && cat - >> windoze_backup.dd_img )" | 03:32 |
| Pimps | will linksys you should be able to clone your mac address | 03:32 |
| spx2 | yes yes !!!! | 03:32 |
| joshual | Flannel: and I can upgrade gutsy to hardy with that? | 03:32 |
| mookinator1313 | can any one help me kill pulseaudio? | 03:32 |
| joshual | Flannel: btw will be updating a dell preinstalled ubuntu | 03:32 |
| mookinator1313 | i dont know how to get to it to get rid of it | 03:32 |
| max_ | spx2, nice | 03:32 |
| nick_ | can somebody help me with an amarok issue? | 03:32 |
| max_ | spx2, ima steal that ok ? | 03:32 |
| spx2 | max_: feel fr33 ! | 03:33 |
| spx2 | nick_: what be the problem ? | 03:33 |
| Flannel | joshual: that's fine. Yes, you can upgrade gutsy to hardy via the alternate CD (not the Desktop CD): http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.04/ | 03:33 |
| SeaPhor | belorix112, i would ask again in chanel but be specific, how to install a restricted driver for abcd-vidcard | 03:33 |
| Pimps | justin__: with linksys routers you should be able to clone your mac address | 03:33 |
| justin__ | yeah | 03:33 |
| nick_ | i can play WAVs in amarok but i can't add them to my collection | 03:33 |
| joshual | awesome thanks Flannel | 03:33 |
| SanitariuM | How to share wifi internet connection (ath0) with another computer via ethernet (eth0) | 03:33 |
| max_ | mookinator1313, I installed pulse, liked it for a sec. Then had to remove it. | 03:34 |
| ibleed | max_, its up to you. i keep my computer on all the time, so its a no brainer for me. i've also got good enough cpu cooling to not worry about it. i went through a hurricane here with a broken ankle, so i have no issues helping cure cancer or contributing to weather prediction super computing. | 03:34 |
| Pimps | do you know how to clone your mac address already? | 03:34 |
| mahuyar | spx2, what's that? | 03:34 |
| SanitariuM | I'm connected now with ath0 (wifi), and firestarter keeps telling me eth0 is not ready when trying to enable connection sharing | 03:34 |
| mookinator1313 | how do i remove pulse? | 03:34 |
| tmapj | does anyone here know the virtual midi keyboard? | 03:34 |
| Pimps | in your routers config menu | 03:34 |
| mahuyar | spx2, looks interesting though :) | 03:34 |
| justin__ | ok im logged in, and im looking at the basic setup menu that has the ip info but nothing that will allow me to change it | 03:34 |
| orionr | How do i Add a user to the sudors file? | 03:34 |
| justin__ | ok | 03:34 |
| sportman1280 | does anyone know how to get LAN file transfer speeds above 4MB/sec? | 03:34 |
| bderrly | orionr, sudo visudo | 03:34 |
| mookinator1313 | how can i get lan transfer speed above 2 mbps? | 03:34 |
| justin__ | ok i cloned my pc's mac address | 03:35 |
| max_ | ibleed, My main computer has no good cooling, right now sensors say 57C for all cores.... but its like 94F ambient temp | 03:35 |
| justin__ | Pimps hey so i cloned my mac address | 03:35 |
| risingphoenix | Is the package search page down | 03:35 |
| risingphoenix | ? | 03:35 |
| Starnestommy | risingphoenix: it's been down intermittently for a while | 03:35 |
| risingphoenix | Thanks | 03:35 |
| ibleed | ouch max_. i'm at 40F at idle and it never gets 10 degrees past that. you might want to look into something. cpus are too valuable to let anything happen to them | 03:36 |
| max_ | ibleed, But I just bought a computer for the office, quad core, with a super badass traditional cooler, which should keep it cool. This means that I will have two quad core computers running 24/7, and most of the time they will be idle. | 03:36 |
| spx2 | mahuyar: I don't have enough space on this machine to back up my windoze partition,so what I do is spit out all the characters of the windoze partition and pipe it through the network to a computer who has more space to store it,that's about it :) | 03:36 |
| bah | (Novice user) Okay, here is my problem. I wiped my desktop hard drive and installed XP and Ubuntu on 2 partitions. Internet works fine in XP. Internet does not work in Ubuntu. I also have wubi ubuntu on my laptop, and the internet works fine in the laptop ubuntu. This is a wired connection... | 03:36 |
| risingphoenix | Is there a way to boot ubuntu from the CD ROM drive? | 03:36 |
| _Andrew | risingphoenix, you put in the live cd | 03:36 |
| max_ | ibleed, 40F is almost freezing temperature. You sure you dont mean 40C ? | 03:36 |
| Pimps | yes under setup click on clone mac address | 03:36 |
| spx2 | risingphoenix: put the cdrom in the drive ? | 03:36 |
| SeaPhor | Jack_Sparrow, just a question but if someone messes up their restricted drivers for vid card and needs to re-install it, would it work to delete the xorg.conf file and let it be rebuilt or is there better way (backing up of course)? | 03:36 |
| spx2 | risingphoenix: check bios settings for boot sequence.. | 03:36 |
| ibleed | max_, there are teams you can join too on the different projects you can join, so if you could join boinc's team ubuntu, or another team, that your fond of or start your own. | 03:37 |
| mahuyar | spx2, quite nice .. thanks.. i'm gonna take a note of it too. :) | 03:37 |
| ibleed | yes max_ 40C :) | 03:37 |
| nick_ | so does anyone know why i can't add WAV files to my collection in amarok? | 03:37 |
| SanitariuM | I'm connected to internet using wifi (ath0)... I need to share this wifi internet connection with another computer using ethernet (eth0)... I'm using Firestarter firewall to set up the sharing, but it keeps telling me eth0 is not ready.... | 03:38 |
| Pimps | you will only be able to do this once to change your public ip address once you have done it you will have to change your mac address with ifconfig then clone it again | 03:38 |
| risingphoenix | When I had windows on it, I could press f12, get the bios and booted the ubuntu desktop cd rom | 03:38 |
| Jordan_U | Is there a way to reset my built in keyboard on my laptop? something keeps getting changed making it unusable | 03:38 |
| Bodsda | SanitariuM, why would you share wifi with a comp using ethernet? | 03:38 |
| max_ | ibleed, Grid computing is an awesome thing. Some day It will lead to the harmony of humanity and birth of AI, IMHO. | 03:38 |
| risingphoenix | Now I want to try the sever cd, but hiiting f12 and selecting cd doesn't work | 03:39 |
| SanitariuM | Router belongs to my neighbor upstairs, I use wifi to get the signal, I cannot run an ethernet cable from the router to the other PC | 03:39 |
| SanitariuM | the other PC does not have wireless | 03:39 |
| Jordan_U | risingphoenix, Ubuntu does not ( can't ) modify the BIOS | 03:39 |
| Pimps | justin__: http://whatismyipaddress.com/staticpages/index.php/how-do-I-change-my-ip-address | 03:39 |
| max_ | It's hot as hell right now ... | 03:39 |
| Bodsda | risingphoenix, go into bios and chane the boot order to boot from cd first then just have the cd in the drive and things should start rollin | 03:39 |
| ibleed | max :) we can only hope | 03:39 |
| nakedgoat | SanitariuM: use wifi, and a nic and share out the connection? | 03:40 |
| Pimps | justin__:http://www.tech-faq.com/change-mac-address.shtml | 03:40 |
| SanitariuM | That's what I'm trying to do nakedgoat, it's not working | 03:40 |
| risingphoenix | I'm not sure how to access the bios | 03:40 |
| risingphoenix | delete didn't work | 03:40 |
| nakedgoat | santi: buy yer own internet? | 03:40 |
| risingphoenix | f12 appears to be the closest thing | 03:40 |
| Pimps | justin__:hello | 03:40 |
| SanitariuM | Windows XP, for example... if you're on wifi... and plug another computer into the ethernet jack, it shares the wifi with the other PC | 03:40 |
| Bodsda | risingphoenix, when itsdetecting your ide drives on boot usually you press F2 or del | 03:40 |
| DIL_ | how do i id a modem on my system | 03:41 |
| risingphoenix | I think I'll just skip it | 03:41 |
| SanitariuM | I'm trying to do the same thing with ubuntu now.. and please don't tell me to buy my own internet, i don't need sarcasm | 03:41 |
| risingphoenix | Thanks anyways | 03:41 |
| ibleed | DIL, i think you'd use lspci or lsusb at command line | 03:41 |
| DIL_ | its a madhouse | 03:41 |
| DIL_ | ibleed: ty | 03:41 |
| max_ | Anyone? The amd64 ISO will work with my Intel 64bit ? | 03:41 |
| Pimps | justin__: r you there | 03:42 |
| ibleed | yep max_ it will | 03:42 |
| max_ | thx | 03:42 |
| max_ | ibleed, they should just call it x64 then | 03:42 |
| ibleed | max_, you might want to run 32 bit though instead of 64 if you want to avoid problems with java and flash | 03:42 |
| max_ | ibleed, I'm hoping to upgrade to 8gb 800mhz soon | 03:42 |
| Bodsda | max808, its called x86 | 03:42 |
| max_ | ibleed, I do lots of design work | 03:42 |
| Jordan_U | Is there a way to reset my built in keyboard on my laptop? something keeps getting changed making it unusable | 03:43 |
| Bodsda | ibleed, there are no 'problems' with flash and java on 64 bit version -- at least not on any of mine | 03:43 |
| ibleed | max_, ahh ok max. i wouldn't do that btw unless you had to have the memory. 4gb is quite a bit though if your running a server might make more sense | 03:43 |
| SeaPhor | max_, yes, but why? i had and had issues cause everything els has to be 64,, not worth it for having 4g ram, which is plenty | 03:43 |
| SanitariuM | How do you share a wifi internet connection (ath0) over an ethernet connection with another computer (eth0) ? | 03:43 |
| ibleed | oh, thats good to know Bodsda. i've been told for a long time to avoid 64 bit for java and flash purposes | 03:43 |
| sportman1280 | can anyone tell me why my transfer speeds are only 4 MB/sec on a gigabit router with a wired connection? | 03:43 |
| DIL_ | so it is fair to say a winmodem will not work on linux, is there such a thing as a linmodem | 03:44 |
| Bodsda | ibleed, nope, mines been perfect since gutsy | 03:44 |
| Jordan_U | SanitariuM, firestarter | 03:44 |
| max_ | SeaPhor, 4GB ram not plenty, I'm using Autodesk Maya 2008 and Adobe CS3 Master Suite (2D graphics and animation) | 03:44 |
| SanitariuM | jordan : firestarter is telling me eth0 is not ready | 03:44 |
| * burner_ wonders who uses an old school modem these days | 03:44 | |
| Jack_Sparrow | sportman1280 I can only assume it is an unsupported network card using ndiswrapper or a low quality driver | 03:44 |
| * Bodsda would think people who are skint | 03:44 | |
| SanitariuM | burner : people who live in the boondocks (country) | 03:44 |
| SanitariuM | my buddy has to use dialup... and gets a whole 2.0kbps | 03:45 |
| ibleed | DIL, i think some winmodems will work. its been forever since i've used one though google ought to be good for that | 03:45 |
| max_ | SeaPhor, With 3GB, I'm still using about 1.5GB of SWAP | 03:45 |
| burner_ | ouch, i wish we could fix that and get everyone broadband | 03:45 |
| sportman1280 | Jack_Sparrow it is a restricted driver. i did not have to use ndiswrapper | 03:45 |
| max_ | Anyone, so i386 supports 4GB or 3.2GB ? | 03:45 |
| Bodsda | burner_, i have an 8mb broadband connection and usually see no more then 100kb | 03:45 |
| DIL_ | burner_: SanitariuM i am in one of the largest metro areas in the country so go fys what is wrong with learning something fi. | 03:46 |
| max_ | Bodsda, Install a firewall front-end such as firestarter | 03:46 |
| Bodsda | max_, you realise theres no program that uses more then 3 gi memory yeah? | 03:46 |
| nj786 | is there no more XMMS player for the new version of ubuntu? | 03:46 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sportman1280 which gigabit card | 03:46 |
| Bodsda | max_, how would that help? | 03:46 |
| max_ | Bodsda, I run multiple programs at once. | 03:46 |
| burner_ | nj786: audacious > xmms. it's basically xmms using gtk2 | 03:46 |
| Bodsda | max_, so, only vista could possibly use that much ram ;~) | 03:46 |
| SanitariuM | Firestarter is telling me eth0 is not ready when attempting to share my wifi connection (ath0) with another computer via ethernet (eth0)... any ideas? | 03:47 |
| Pimps | f | 03:47 |
| max_ | Bodsda, I use Maya for Linux, and run VirtualBox, Windows XP with about 3 Adobe programs running at a time | 03:47 |
| sportman1280 | Jack_Sparrow: well the card itself isnt gigabit. so i dont expect those speeds. however 4MB is very slow. it seems. Its a built in one to my laptop, how can i look up the info that you want? | 03:47 |
| Bodsda | max_, ok, but why did you tellme to install firestarter? | 03:47 |
| SeaPhor | max_, i use autodesk, MasterCam, CadCam, and running office stuff with 2g and 2g swap, but if you having issues all i am saying is be prepared to have issues as Bodsda said | 03:47 |
| max_ | Bodsda, wrong person =] | 03:47 |
| Bodsda | max_, o,kk,.lol | 03:48 |
| ibleed | is it ever recommended to use firestarter if your always connecting through a nat router ? | 03:48 |
| Jack_Sparrow | sportman1280 all you can do is search for your laptop specs | 03:48 |
| sportman1280 | wait | 03:48 |
| sportman1280 | its an intel card | 03:48 |
| sportman1280 | jack_sparrow: remember that from windows days hah | 03:48 |
| Jordan_U | Is there a way to reset my built in keyboard on my laptop? something keeps getting changed making it unusable | 03:49 |
| max_ | Bodsda, Oh, you, if you only get 100kb and you have 8mb connection, then probably ports are being filtered. iptables filters all ports by default. Running firestarter tells you if some port is trying to be accessed and being denied. | 03:49 |
| Bodsda | max_, ok,so what i load firestarter then start a download and see whats doing stuff? | 03:49 |
| Tixer | how can I forward traffic on certain port ranges to a specific interface? | 03:50 |
| Tixer | using iptables. | 03:50 |
| max_ | Bodsda, Oh, this is http download? You only get 100kb max? | 03:50 |
| EoRaptor | <belorix112>, you still there? | 03:50 |
| max_ | KB i should say* | 03:50 |
| el1te | ppl that use kubuntu can ask questions here to right? is there anything we cant talk aboiut? | 03:50 |
| koshari | why are some of my installed packages now missing from the /var/cache/apt/archives dir? and how can i get then back without having to manually work out all those dependencies? | 03:50 |
| Bodsda | max_, yep | 03:51 |
| eLuminx | anyone have any idea how to get sawfish running in hardy? | 03:51 |
| Bodsda | max_, well,. it varies sometimes 10kb-100kb rarely see 400kb | 03:51 |
| Monica_28 | how can get 5.1 sound we use ubuntu Hardy ans i have already flush Pulse-fuck | 03:51 |
| koshari | i know why, because thay are all moved to apt cachers dir :-) | 03:51 |
| nj786 | burner_: is this the best music player on ubuntu? | 03:51 |
| max_ | ibleed, SeaPhor I'm trying to get Virtualbox to use 5GB of physical RAM, leaving my linux to have 3GB. This is only possible with x64 Ubuntu, and XP-64. Correct? | 03:52 |
| EoRaptor | belorix112, I mean | 03:52 |
| burner_ | nj786: that's debateable, but it is a lot like xmms | 03:52 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Monica_28 Please watch the language.. | 03:52 |
| Bodsda | max_, correct | 03:52 |
| koshari | nj786 what about amarok | 03:52 |
| el1te | i have 2 pc`s (pc #1 = windows xp gaming rig) (pc#2 = linux box that passes sound from the windows machine to the home theatre optical in)...linux box has an nf2 mb with soundstorm chip i think its alc650 optical out | 03:52 |
| max_ | Bodsda, Rarely do http servers ever give more than 150KB/s in a single connection. | 03:52 |
| el1te | so the windows pc stereo out goes to the linux box line in | 03:52 |
| Zeker_ | join /c | 03:52 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !clone | koshari | 03:52 |
| ubottu | koshari: 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 | 03:52 |
| el1te | and again from linux box optical out to the home theatre optical in | 03:52 |
| el1te | can someone help me do it | 03:53 |
| Monica_28 | jack Sparow get lost lol | 03:53 |
| ibleed | max_, all that i've read on the ubuntu forums say you need 64 bit ubuntu to access more than 4GB though there was a non ubuntu forum thread that said something different you might want to google for that one | 03:53 |
| el1te | the sound storm alc650 chip does real time DDL decoding | 03:53 |
| Bodsda | max_, yeah, but my internet connection speed (time to load a page) is stupidly slow for an 8mb connection,.,. and mymachine lags (mouse jumpy) whenever i use the internet | 03:53 |
| max_ | Bodsda, If you were using a different method of downloading, you could use multiple connections. | 03:53 |
| el1te | so anything i pass to it gets decoded to 5.1 | 03:53 |
| nakedgoat | wow u banned a chick ? | 03:53 |
| nakedgoat | ;P | 03:53 |
| el1te | its nice in windows i used but i installed linux and now i dont know how to enable it | 03:53 |
| el1te | can someone help me | 03:53 |
| Jordan_U | max_, You can use > 4 GIG of RAM with the 32 bit server kernel | 03:54 |
| max_ | Bodsda, you use a gateway? besides router? | 03:54 |
| Bodsda | you really shouldnt tell ops to get lost | 03:54 |
| Bodsda | ;~) | 03:54 |
| jdwilm | el1te: i'm no expert on sound, but it would seem to me using spdif after choking it through the regular line out is sort of pointless | 03:54 |
| nakedgoat | yeah I saw that one comming | 03:54 |
| max_ | Jordan_U, I can use more than 4gb ram with 32bit kernel? | 03:54 |
| Bodsda | max_, no, i dont think so (whats a gateway?) | 03:54 |
| el1te | jdwilm nah man its great | 03:54 |
| el1te | i used it in windows fine ....dont know if i can do it with linux | 03:54 |
| YixilTesiphon | is my wireless card not being able to detect any networks a driver problem or some other kind of problem? | 03:54 |
| Jordan_U | max_, With the -server kernel instead of -generic, yes | 03:55 |
| Bodsda | YixilTesiphon, could be either | 03:55 |
| max_ | Bodsda, well, if all pages loads slow with your 8mbs connnection, then that means the web is coming from somewhere else than straight from your DSL/Cable modem | 03:55 |
| el1te | basically the nf2 mb has 2 sound chips...1 is the alc650 ac97 and the other is the soundstorm | 03:55 |
| max_ | Jordan_U, AH! I'm using generic. | 03:55 |
| jdwilm | el1te: then why not just connect it to the stereo with the regular line out -- you're not going to get any boost in quality passing it through another machine and outputting via spdir | 03:55 |
| Bodsda | max_, wifi dongle --> bt home hub --> outside world | 03:55 |
| el1te | alc650 line in to the soundstorm optical out | 03:55 |
| jdwilm | spdif* | 03:55 |
| SeaPhor | max_, all i am saying is that the 64 os has some issues, i used it for a long while but in your case you may have a more +s than -s , just be prepared for the -s :-) | 03:55 |
| max_ | Bodsda, bt home hub? Tell me that doesn't mean Blue Tooth | 03:55 |
| el1te | the nf2 sound storm does real time DDL | 03:55 |
| Bodsda | SeaPhor, what issues are these? | 03:55 |
| el1te | dolby digial live decoding | 03:56 |
| Bodsda | max_, no its wifi | 03:56 |
| compy | does anyone know a proper channel i can ask a question reguarding web development and how to put lots of quotes in a database so they can be accesible online? | 03:56 |
| el1te | my nf4 (windows machine) dont have ddl | 03:56 |
| compy | or if anyone knows and will PM me? | 03:56 |
| el1te | so i have to use analog out | 03:56 |
| max_ | Bodsda, Your WIFI NIC is USB ?? | 03:56 |
| Rat409 | compy: try ##linux | 03:56 |
| Bodsda | max_, whats a wifi 'nic' ? | 03:56 |
| max_ | Bodsda, Network Interface Card | 03:56 |
| el1te | you think you can help me | 03:56 |
| Bodsda | max_, err,. its a usb dongle | 03:57 |
| el1te | im lost in ubuntu/kubuntu | 03:57 |
| compy | k thanks | 03:57 |
| max_ | Bodsda, Ew, try a PCI at least, or plug in straight ethernet for real speed. | 03:57 |
| burner_ | Bodsda: it could be your wireless connection slowing you down. It could be that the website you're downloading from can't give you more bandwidth | 03:57 |
| * burner_ doesn't boo USB wifi adapters and uses one... it's fine :P | 03:57 | |
| el1te | can someone help me with this sound problem | 03:57 |
| Bodsda | burner_, max_, if i had the money i would buy a wifi pci card but till then its dongle for me | 03:58 |
| burner_ | that said, cable is a whole lot faster | 03:58 |
| el1te | i dont even know where the sound manager is | 03:58 |
| max_ | Bodsda, Reason why your dongle may have been better in Windows, is that the drivers were programmed specificially for windoz | 03:58 |
| Bodsda | burner_, not an option -- cable doesnt reach router | 03:58 |
| burner_ | Bodsda: i don't think you'll get any better performance through pci | 03:58 |
| max_ | burner_, you probably have a linux supported adapter | 03:58 |
| * burner_ uses ndiswrapper with a dlink wifi adapter | 03:58 | |
| burner_ | it's not ideal, but it works | 03:58 |
| * max_ barfs | 03:58 | |
| * burner_ ends the digression and gets back to teh point | 03:58 | |
| el1te | come on guys whos the guru here that knows all | 03:59 |
| * max_ learns some C# so he can program his own drivers | 03:59 | |
| Bodsda | max_, burner_ i use dongle with ndiswrapper in an attempt to speed things up nojoy though | 03:59 |
| SeaPhor | Bodsda, not much i couldnt eventually work out, but as you said some with video (flash), had to make sure that any software i wanted to install supported 64, been like 6 months since i made the switch so may not even be relevant as far as my issues, but everyone as i understand has had their own based on what their interests are :-) | 03:59 |
| max_ | el1te, #linux | 03:59 |
| burner_ | Bodsda: maybe if you test your speed from another site, it'll be faster? try the ubuntu torrents? I get 1 MB/s for torrents... that == 8 mbps | 03:59 |
| Pimps | what are some other programs for detecting rootkits? like chkrootkits and rkhunter | 03:59 |
| Jordan_U | el1te, ubotu ;) | 03:59 |
| Pimps | what are some other programs for detecting rootkits? like chkrootkits and rkhunter | 03:59 |
| el1te | ok | 03:59 |
| DIL_ | leet | 03:59 |
| el1te | sup | 03:59 |
| Bodsda | SeaPhor, i have been using ubuntu since gutsy (always 64) and never had a prob once the flash fx came out | 04:00 |
| koshari | thanks Jack_Sparrow but that only provides a portable list , i think i need to copy all my debs into a dir on a portable and run scanpackages to generate a packages.gz file to use as a repo on the non connected machine | 04:00 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Pimps Please be patient and hold off on the repeats | 04:00 |
| max_ | burner_, yeah I get great speeds through torrent, never through http protocol | 04:00 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !aptoncd | 04:00 |
| ubottu | APTonCD is a tool with a graphical interface which allows you to create one or more CDs or DVDs with all of the packages you've downloaded via apt-get or aptitude, creating a removable repository that you can use on other computers | 04:00 |
| Bodsda | burner_, speed tests indicate its slowwww!!! | 04:00 |
| josh__ | hey guys, I have a question | 04:00 |
| Rat409 | Pimps: those are it unless you code a new one afaik anyways | 04:00 |
| ICM | nine inches, josh__ | 04:00 |
| Pimps | sorry I press up and enter by acceident | 04:00 |
| josh__ | haha not that question ICM | 04:00 |
| Jack_Sparrow | koshari if they are not in archives then you may have run clean and purged them.. | 04:00 |
| burner_ | Bodsda: bummer... I like my 8 mbps, but I wish Comcast wouldn't block torrent traffic like it does | 04:00 |
| max_ | josh__, 11.5 inches | 04:00 |
| ICM | oh snap :) | 04:01 |
| max_ | im black | 04:01 |
| josh__ | nah, I just upgraded from vista to ubuntu, and I'm trying to move all my stuff over (had it stored on a "server") | 04:01 |
| koshari | can you use apt on cd to make a repo pn a removable drive? | 04:01 |
| Jack_Sparrow | max_ That is unnecessary in the channel.. It honestly does not matter | 04:01 |
| josh__ | and I've got everything so far, but when I went to replace the bookmarks with the ones I already had saved, it won't let me .... | 04:01 |
| Bodsda | burner_, i wish i had an ethernet into the internet (THE internet) you know, the single machine that serves the internet,. i want it in my bedroom | 04:01 |
| josh__ | says I don't have permissions, even when I sign in as root | 04:01 |
| evilbug | how do i know if i have the 32 or 64 bit version installed,my friend installed through wubi. | 04:02 |
| josh__ | how can I replace them so I have my bookmarks? | 04:02 |
| max_ | Jack_Sparrow, ok cap'n , it was just subject matter | 04:02 |
| SeaPhor | Bodsda, how long have you been using linux, ? i am a n00b to all linux, but am soaking in all i can | 04:02 |
| Bodsda | SeaPhor, got a working ubuntu in january | 04:02 |
| max_ | josh__, easiest way is to make a user account with the same name and password as the server account. | 04:02 |
| Bodsda | love it @ upgraded from vista to ubuntu | 04:03 |
| max_ | HUGE upgrade | 04:03 |
| Pimps | it's a monster | 04:03 |
| jdwilm | i think win98 is an upgrade from vista ;p | 04:03 |
| max_ | why not just drop your files onto an external? | 04:03 |
| max_ | josh__, why not just drop your files onto an external? | 04:03 |
| josh__ | no no, when I try to put them in \etc\mozilla\profile | 04:03 |
| rabbitear | http://www.metacafe.com/watch/857874/vista_true_info/ | 04:04 |
| josh__ | I've got my bookmarks on my laptop (running ubuntu) | 04:04 |
| max_ | josh__, /home/USERNAME/.mozilla/profile | 04:04 |
| josh__ | right | 04:04 |
| SeaPhor | Bodsda, cool, so you havent ever dealt with any other distro and have had no issues, man that is great, i could use your help alot | 04:04 |
| josh__ | but it says I don't have permissions | 04:04 |
| josh__ | even when I sign in as root | 04:04 |
| nakedgoat | use myfoxmarks ;P | 04:04 |
| Bodsda | SeaPhor, i'd be happy to help -- if you want to join me in #helpseaphor | 04:04 |
| max_ | josh__, so you cant read files from the server which you're transferring files from? | 04:05 |
| tmapj | does anyone here know the virtual midi keyboard? | 04:05 |
| max_ | josh__, you cant read any files from there? how are you accessing these files? | 04:05 |
| josh__ | no, I've got them on the laptop, and I can read them fine | 04:05 |
| max_ | tmapj, yeah its rocks out hard core | 04:05 |
| josh__ | but I want to be able to use them from firefox | 04:05 |
| naos_ | anyone know if the bug for the nvidia 8xxx cards will ever get fixed? | 04:05 |
| tmapj | max how do you get it to work? | 04:05 |
| max_ | tmapj sorry i dont know | 04:05 |
| tmapj | max_ how do you get it to work? | 04:05 |
| josh__ | so I need to replace the default "bookmarks.html" with the ones i already have saved | 04:05 |
| josh__ | and when I go to do that, it says I don't have permissions | 04:06 |
| tmapj | max how did you use yours? | 04:06 |
| josh__ | even when I'm signed in as root | 04:06 |
| max_ | tmapj i dont have one, you asked if i knew of it. my friends midi keyboard kicks arse | 04:06 |
| Jack_Sparrow | josh__ gksudo nautilus does not work? | 04:06 |
| tmapj | ok | 04:06 |
| tmapj | im talking about the VIRTUAL midi keyboard | 04:06 |
| max_ | oh dear.... ambient temperature 97F, and its 8PM | 04:06 |
| josh__ | gksudo what now? | 04:07 |
| josh__ | what's nautilus | 04:07 |
| max_ | nautilus is the file browser | 04:07 |
| max_ | for gnome | 04:07 |
| josh__ | ohhhh | 04:07 |
| josh__ | I dunno, hang on | 04:07 |
| josh__ | lol | 04:07 |
| alexj0nes | i have a weird situation where, if I download and install the nvidia supplied drivers, X works.. but then when I reboot, it breaks the setup. How do I get ubuntu to stop reverting to the broke-ass config? | 04:07 |
| Bodsda | !enter > josh__ please read pm from ubottu | 04:07 |
| Eric_Biggs | Hey, is anybody here familiar with the workings of a software raid and dual booting? I need some help. | 04:07 |
| Bodsda | !ask | Eric_Biggs | 04:07 |
| ubottu | Eric_Biggs: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 04:07 |
| Pimps | hmm interesting that this is in the package directory in debian 4 "pdfcrack - PDF files password cracker" | 04:08 |
| chalcedony | i can't think of the name of the photo showing program i had maybe you type display to show the photos? | 04:08 |
| max_ | alexj0nes, edit your /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change the 'nvidia' driver to 'nv' you'll see it in the sections | 04:09 |
| chalcedony | i can't think of the name of the photo showing program i had maybe you type display to show the photos? | 04:09 |
| alexj0nes | max: ok | 04:09 |
| === Ashfire is now known as Ashfire908 | ||
| max_ | alexj0nes, boot into recovery mode, do 'sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf' to edit | 04:09 |
| max_ | chalcedony, I like gwenview | 04:09 |
| alexj0nes | will it not work if I just change it right now without recovery mode? | 04:09 |
| Bodsda | max_, reboot pik recovery mode choose fix x (is a cool way to fix x related probs) just fyi | 04:09 |
| Eric_Biggs | Ok, here's the setup - Vista is installed on a software RAID0 array. To avoid RAID issues I just installed 8.04 on a third drive. Now I'm having issues with where to put GRUB for it all to work. | 04:09 |
| alexj0nes | ok, file edited. I shall test it with a rebootx0r. thanks to the max_, if it works. | 04:10 |
| mookinator1313 | how do i get faster wireless? | 04:11 |
| josh__ | ok great | 04:11 |
| max_ | Bodsda, FIX X ? What's that, that new? | 04:11 |
| Bodsda | Eric_Biggs, on your primary boot device (first in list in bios) | 04:11 |
| alexj0nes | mookinator: kill everyone else on the network | 04:11 |
| chalcedony | image magick .. but i want to find out what the crest on this guy's shirt says.. the picture isn't opening big | 04:11 |
| mookinator1313 | they're already dead | 04:11 |
| chalcedony | max_ | 04:11 |
| chalcedony | ty | 04:11 |
| Bodsda | max_, yeah devs decided to ditch dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg and gaves us a new toy to play with | 04:11 |
| mookinator1313 | like im only gettin 2mbps, on my old comp i was gettin 54 | 04:11 |
| josh__ | that worked, I got the bookmarks replaced, but that still didn't work, when I open firefox my bookmarks aren't there | 04:11 |
| max_ | Bodsda, Wow, less brain cycles = good ? | 04:12 |
| Eric_Biggs | Bodsda, that would be the RAID array which Ubuntu sees as two separate drives. The problem is that Ubuntu does not detect a Windows installation at all so its not added to the bootloader. | 04:12 |
| max_ | In Ubuntu land, yes. | 04:12 |
| Jack_Sparrow | josh__ at least we are not chasing a permission problem around | 04:12 |
| josh__ | very true, thanks for that | 04:12 |
| josh__ | any other ideas? | 04:12 |
| mookinator1313 | how can i get faster LAN speeds? is there something that i install? or what? | 04:12 |
| josh__ | talk to your ISP mookinator :P | 04:12 |
| Bodsda | Eric_Biggs, you would need to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and add it manuallythen im afraid | 04:13 |
| max_ | josh__, putting the bookmarks.html file in the right place? Mine are located in /home/USER/.mozilla/firefox/PROFILE!@#3123.default | 04:13 |
| Bodsda | mookinator1313, get a faster computer and cable? | 04:13 |
| max_ | josh__, You can also just Import the bookmarks.html file | 04:13 |
| nomasteryoda | install gigabit lan hubs and cards | 04:13 |
| josh__ | hmmmm, lemme check then | 04:13 |
| mookinator1313 | i cant hard wire | 04:13 |
| Pimps | mookinator1313: you can speed up access to websites by putting it in your host file | 04:14 |
| josh__ | wait huh? how do you import them? | 04:14 |
| AlexJ0nes | max, that didn't work -- made it worse, actually. | 04:14 |
| Eric_Biggs | Bodsda, Is it possible to edit a Vista bootloader to add Ubuntu there? That seems like it would be an easier option as I'm sure GRUB won't see the drives as RAID either. | 04:14 |
| Jack_Sparrow | josh__ put your bookmarks in /home/josh and point firefox bookmark tool to it in there | 04:14 |
| max_ | josh__, In firefox, Do Bookmarks->Organize->File->Import | 04:14 |
| max_ | AlexJ0nes, What did we do ? | 04:14 |
| Bodsda | Eric_Biggs, err,. dunno you'd have to ask in ##windows | 04:14 |
| AlexJ0nes | max_: modified 'nvidia' to 'nv' in xorg.conf. | 04:14 |
| max_ | AlexJ0nes, You changed nvidia driver to nv? | 04:14 |
| cyberbuf1 | Hello! i have installed MySQL in 7.10. But can't connect it with php. "cat /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini | grep mysql.so" returned nothing. Can someone help me? | 04:14 |
| Pimps | alex jones | 04:14 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Dinner time// bbl | 04:14 |
| AlexJ0nes | max_: I believe the system is picking up the wrong driver on boot ... the install from nvidia's script clearly works, it just isn't present when i reboot for some reason. | 04:15 |
| josh__ | hahaha, that worked, thanks max .... I feel stupid now, but at least I got my bookmarks | 04:15 |
| Starnestommy | cyberbuf1: is php5-mysql installed? | 04:15 |
| max_ | alexj0nes ok then change it back to nvidia ... make sure you edited the 'driver' section | 04:15 |
| Eric_Biggs | Bodsda, Or I may be able to mess with setting up dmraid while still in the LiveCD (you can do that, correct?) | 04:15 |
| AlexJ0nes | sec | 04:15 |
| cyberbuf1 | Starnestommy: yes | 04:15 |
| max_ | alexj0nes you have nv and nvidia drivers installed... this is what i know, and you can switch between the two | 04:15 |
| Bodsda | Eric_Biggs, yep i believe so -- raid is not my forte thouh | 04:15 |
| Starnestommy | cyberbuf1: you might need to restart apache | 04:16 |
| mookinator1313 | installing the wireless card's driver will speed it up right? | 04:16 |
| AlexJ0nes | max: how can i remove the nv drivers | 04:16 |
| cyberbuf1 | Starnestommy: it never works. Even after restarting the machine. | 04:16 |
| Eric_Biggs | Bodsda, Pfft...That's the entire reason I did this the way I have... | 04:16 |
| gerardoj | has anyone tried to modified init-functions and change the colors of the boot text under hardy? | 04:16 |
| Pimps | ha ha ha aha ha aha ha | 04:17 |
| Starnestommy | cyberbuf1: does /etc/php5/conf.d/mysql.ini exist? | 04:17 |
| max_ | AlexJ0nes, Dunno, they're like built in. You can just use the nvidia drivers, which are non-proprietary by just changing 'nv' to 'nvidia' in your xorg.conf | 04:17 |
| Bodsda | Eric_Biggs, it should be easy enough to add the bootable partition to grub -- just dont ask me how ask the channel ;~) | 04:17 |
| cyberbuf1 | Starnestommy: yes it does. | 04:17 |
| jdwilm | Eric_Biggs: try searching the forums for adding vista to grub -- should work the same with or without raid | 04:17 |
| gerardoj | I've tried this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=347303 | 04:17 |
| matt444 | how do you resume from a ctrl+z on the command line? | 04:17 |
| mookinator1313 | a driver for a wireless card will make it faster, right? | 04:18 |
| Starnestommy | matt444: fg | 04:18 |
| AlexJ0nes | max: i just want this thing to work when i reboot, so I don't have to run the install script everytime I boot up for the nvidia drivers to work. | 04:18 |
| Starnestommy | mookinator1313: it probably should | 04:18 |
| Eric_Biggs | jdwilm, Its software raid though, so a driver is involved. | 04:18 |
| gerardoj | but actually its not working properly... some hints? | 04:18 |

| Starnestommy | cyberbuf1: what happens when you try to run a php script that connects to a mysql database? | 04:19 |

| Bodsda | Jordan_U, sudo apt-get remove grub wont work then? | 04:25 |
| rycole | morphius, well, the quotas system by default just notifies me, and the user, when they go over their limit... and it automatically removes the files after x amount of time | 04:25 |
| Eric_Biggs | nakedgoat, restore the vista bootloader. I've made a mess with my raid... | 04:25 |
| Jordan_U | Bodsda, No, that will not remove GRUB from the MBR | 04:25 |
| d4t4min3r | i need help with my wireless card ... it wont work at all... i have the dynex dx-ebdtc | 04:25 |
| Bodsda | Eric_Biggs, use vista cd boot to recovery and type fixmbr sorted | 04:25 |
| d4t4min3r | i tried different wifi apps like wicd, wireshark.. nothing.. and i tried ndis and nothign there | 04:26 |
| nakedgoat | Eric_Biggs : boot with yer vista cd, go to repiar, and bootrec.exe fixmbr from cmd prompt | 04:26 |
| Bodsda | Jordan_U, oh kk | 04:26 |
| AimLXJ | Anyone have experience with Conky? | 04:26 |
| AlexJ0nes | the other issue -- how do I get sound to work all the time in firefox for sites like youtube? | 04:26 |
| fdsss | http://www.linux.com/articles/25246 | 04:26 |
| d4t4min3r | the card wont come on.. the lights arnt flashing on the back of the card | 04:26 |
| d4t4min3r | can anyone help me | 04:26 |
| nakedgoat | Eric_Biggs : act. I think it's bootrec /Fixmbr | 04:26 |
| mandrig | Anyone know something like SuperKaramba for gnome, thats not gDesklets? | 04:26 |
| Eric_Biggs | nakedgoat, Bodsda , you guys know whether it'll be seeing the fakeRAID since thats in command line? | 04:26 |
| Jordan_U | AlexJ0nes, You can try installing libflashsupport but that may cause crashes instead :( | 04:27 |
| Bodsda | Eric_Biggs, no idea | 04:27 |
| d4t4min3r | can anyone help me with wireless card issues | 04:27 |
| Byron1 | AlexJOnes I have good luck with mplayer plugin | 04:27 |
| fdsss | how effective is "john" the active password cracking tool? | 04:27 |
| Bodsda | fdsss, reasonably assumingthe password is loical | 04:27 |
| nakedgoat | Eric_Biggs : it will act. be on a ram drive, but you'll see your NTFS partiton that vista lives on | 04:27 |
| Bodsda | logical* | 04:27 |
| nakedgoat | my bad ;P | 04:27 |
| AlexJ0nes | argh, it used to work | 04:28 |
| AlexJ0nes | sometimes it actually works in firefox | 04:28 |
| fdsss | logical meaning that it is from the dictionary right | 04:28 |
| AlexJ0nes | othertimes it doesn't.. leads me to believe they are not sharing the sound resources correctly | 04:28 |
| Eric_Biggs | nakedgoat, can you clarify that? | 04:28 |
| AlexJ0nes | rebooting to test my setup brb | 04:28 |
| Byron1 | d4t I can try to help with wireless | 04:28 |
| Bodsda | fdsss, no,logical meaning it is related to something like your usernameand has a combination of letters numbers and punctuation -- its a bruteforce attacker -- theoreticcaly it could crack anyhting given enoug time | 04:29 |
| jedimind | this is a compiz question: id like to disable the 'window decoration' (because i hate the dropshadow) but when i do so none of my windows have a header or any sort of frame to them ... and i cant find a way to just turn that part on - any ideas ? | 04:29 |
| nakedgoat | Eric_Biggs : if u wanna go back to vista, do what I said. :P, repair, cmd prompt x:>bootrec /fixmbr exit then reboot | 04:29 |
| Eric_Biggs | nakedgoat, Vista is on a software (BIOS level) RAID0 array. Without a driver for that (which the Vista installer has natively) it would see two separate 500GB drives like Ubuntu does | 04:29 |
| Bodsda | jedimind, best ask in #compiz-fusion | 04:29 |
| jedimind | cool thx | 04:29 |
| Eric_Biggs | Mk...I'll work on it...let you know how things go. | 04:29 |
| fdsss | especially if you have a fast computer | 04:29 |
| jdwilm | good luck! | 04:30 |
| mydrmeix | i havent used since 5.10 this is nice | 04:30 |
| Eric_Biggs | If all else fails I know I can back everything up with Fedora. | 04:30 |
| Bodsda | fedora vista and ubuntu -- strange mix | 04:31 |
| Eric_Biggs | Not installed. But it does recognize the RAID natively. | 04:31 |

| someguy | Hey guys, I've tried installing the toolchain three different times on my desktop. For some reason, I can get it to compile and install with no errors. When I got to compile an application the compiler looks at the wrong directory | 04:36 |

| AimLXJ | fdsss: It's called Conky | 04:37 |
| someguy | it says ignoring nonexistent directory "/usr/local/lib/gcc/arm-apple-darwin/4.0.1/../../../../arm-apple-darwin-sys-include" | 04:37 |
| nakedgoat | AimLXJ : try /j #conky | 04:38 |
| someguy | but, then gcc searches and finds it in two spots and what I believe causing a bunch of errors | 04:38 |
| AimLXJ | nakedgoat: /j #conky in terminal? If so are you sure I put the "/"? | 04:38 |

| hieu | it say permission denied.. what i do? | 05:04 |
| fwaokda | Flannel, you still around? | 05:04 |
| nakedgoat | hieu : then you do a chmod a+x filename.bin | 05:05 |
| hieu | ok | 05:05 |
| hieu | it works thanks | 05:06 |
| hieu | always do that when i get permission denied? | 05:06 |
| nakedgoat | hieu : well permission denied, is a permission issue, chmod changes permissions ;)P | 05:06 |
| hieu | ok | 05:06 |
| nakedgoat | hieu : man chmod | 05:06 |
| hieu | i better copy that command down, thanks | 05:06 |
| squee | hieu: wikipedia is win for learning command line: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Unix_programs | 05:08 |
| hieu | do you know how i can view streaming .rm files from the net? | 05:08 |
| squee | hieu: vlc might be able to | 05:08 |
| hieu | i tried installing vlc from synaptic package manager, and it say missing something | 05:08 |
| squee | hieu: also, realplayer has a linux version, it's just kinda unstable | 05:08 |
| arrrghhh | so the livecd won't boot on my friend's computer... it starts loading, the progress bar gets 15% and it dies. it kicks me back to a command line (initfas) or something to that effect and it doesn't even look like bash. i tried using wubi, same thing. wouldn't boot and kicks me back to archaic command line. what's goin on? | 05:09 |
| fwaokda | my system says I'm using Proprietary Drivers "NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver" how can i fix this??? | 05:09 |
| hieu | it say this: vlc: | 05:09 |
| hieu | Depends: libsdl-image1.2 (>=1.2.5) but it is not installable | 05:09 |
| squee | arrrghhh: this happens alot when it has issues with the ide/sata controller (at least from what i've seen). This is it dropping to an initramfs (busybox i think) shell. There is a command usuallyto get through it, hold on | 05:10 |
| nakedgoat | arrrghhh : your friend using raid? | 05:10 |
| chusmiza | donde estoy | 05:10 |
| chusmiza | que es esto | 05:10 |
| arrrghhh | squee, sounds right | 05:10 |
| arrrghhh | nakedgoat, no raid | 05:10 |
| nakedgoat | !sp | chusmiza | 05:10 |
| ubottu | Factoid sp not found | 05:10 |
| arrrghhh | besides, why would the livecd be doing anything with the hdd's? shouldn't it be completely independent of that? | 05:10 |
| arrrghhh | squee, definitely said busybox | 05:11 |
| arrrghhh | i don't understand why a hard drive incompatibility should arise from a livecd environment... | 05:13 |
| squee | arrrghhh: you could try "modprobe ide-generic && modprobe ide-disk", and it might continue, but this is kinda a specific issue, and might not be what is causing you problems | 05:13 |
| amenado | arrrghhh-> if you are on livecd try this , fdisk -l or dmesg and you'll see that even a livecd will attempt to detect what hd it sees on the system | 05:13 |
| squee | arrrghhh: the other thing to check would be dmesg, and see if there are any errors there | 05:13 |
| nakedgoat | arrrghhh : what ver? 7.10 or 8.04? | 05:13 |
| ringer | how do i get a notification in pidgin messenger when someone signs in? like the real msn | 05:13 |
| arrrghhh | nakedgoat, 8.04. tried the ubuntu and kubuntu livecd's that work on other computers | 05:14 |
| juank_prada | ringer, install pidguin guifications | 05:14 |

| AzMoo | Hey, I've got a machine here I've just installed Xubuntu 8.04 on. It's a Celeron 1.7Ghz with 256MB RAM and it's hammering the hard-drive every time I try and do something. Is this a configuration problem or hardware? | 05:31 |
| ubergoober | libpq4 is required and its telling me libpq is a virtual package. I've tried the libpq ( >= 4) thing | 05:31 |
| ubergoober | still the same thing | 05:31 |
| SeaPhor | cypha, yes | 05:31 |
| yao | when enter :sudo apt- get install apache2 it said : sudo: apt-: command not found what's wrong? | 05:31 |
| cypha | mk, i tried gedit /etc/fstab ....it didn't work | 05:31 |
| mkquist | cypha: sudo? | 05:31 |
| scunizi | AzMoo, if it's that fresh of an install it's probably just indexing | 05:31 |
| cypha | oh, i'm sorry | 05:31 |
| cypha | just out of curiosity, why did i have to sudo it | 05:31 |
| ubergoober | squee: not sure what I'm doing wrong | 05:32 |
| scunizi | yao, use apt-get ... no spaces | 05:32 |
| nakedgoat | cypha: cat /etc/fstab will show u the contents | 05:32 |
| SeaPhor | !tab | cypha | 05:32 |
| cypha | cuz i can open up /etc/X11/xorg.conf without sudo | 05:32 |
| ubottu | cypha: You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 05:32 |
| cypha | but i just can't edit it | 05:32 |
| AzMoo | scunizi: Wouldn't that happen in one big bunch though? This only happens when I open something. | 05:32 |
| mkquist | cypha: need to be root to edit | 05:32 |
| AzMoo | scunizi: By indexing you mean updatedb, right? | 05:32 |
| cypha | what does cat mean? | 05:32 |
| cypha | i've seen that before | 05:32 |
| mudd`Hossam | i've set up a virtual hosts mail server with postfix following a guide on howtoforge but i am still recieving mail only for the default user in /var/mail as opposed to /home/vmail, whats going on? | 05:32 |
| cypha | but it wasn't in the faq | 05:32 |
| mkquist | cypha: so i guess u really dont need to sudo, i just thought it u wanted to change it... thats all | 05:32 |
| cypha | mk,..i do want to change it, so i'd like to sudo | 05:32 |
| scunizi | AzMoo, no .. tracker.. updatedb belongs to "locate".. tracker is the new one. | 05:32 |
| nakedgoat | cypha: man cat ;P | 05:33 |
| cypha | but just for shits and giggles, i didn't sudo | 05:33 |
| squee | ubergoober: you are requiring a package that apparently has been deprecated | 05:33 |
| cypha | and it wouldn't open | 05:33 |
| cypha | it gave me that error | 05:33 |
| cypha | or response | 05:33 |

| ubottu | scunizi: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation! | 05:33 |
| nakedgoat | cypha: they mean, don't hit enter after each line of text, and try sudo gedit /ect/fstab ;P | 05:34 |
| bullgard4 | fwaokda_: The description which you have given is too general. "I am new to Ubuntu" is no excuse not to look up the terms which I have mentioned, using Google and to try to understand them.

| cypha | is that kubuntu? | 05:37 |

| ubergoober | squee: still looking but yeah I've tried that and it works but... | 05:40 |
| cypha | lartza, that happened to me as well, try restarting | 05:40 |
| bullgard4 | AzMoo: It is probably due to a housekeeping process. Please use the command 'top' to find out what process it is. Then you may decide if a remedy is approriate or you need to wait until it is over. | 05:40 |
| squee | lartza_: flv is poorly supported in linux. if that is the only filetype you have issues with, i would blame that. | 05:40 |

| astro76 | melissa1220: instructions at the link squee gave for adding the repo, then just sudo apt-get install libdvdcss2 | 05:52 |
| cypha | did i get medibuntu when i got dvd support | 05:52 |
| cypha | i added somethign to some file | 05:52 |
| squee | melissa1220: if you're running 8.04 hardy heron: "sudo wget http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/hardy.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install medibuntu-keyring && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install libdvdcss2" | 05:52 |
| cypha | through gedit | 05:52 |
| cypha | about medibuntu wiht a # or ## in front of it | 05:52 |
| nakedgoat | u edited ur sources.list | 05:52 |
| cypha | yes | 05:52 |
| cypha | thanks naked | 05:52 |
| yao | where should I login in root? | 05:53 |
| nakedgoat | cypha: yep | 05:53 |
| melissa1220 | squee: and everyone else thanks so much - will give a try - appreciate all your help :o) | 05:53 |
| Eric_Biggs | Bodsda, Well, I just did the fixboot and fixmbr so right now only Vista will work. I'm going to try to figure out how I can link the Vista bootloader to GRUB and try that with GRUB installed on the disk with Ubuntu. | 05:53 |
| squee | melissa1220: that will ask you to install a unauthenticated package or something (when it installs the key), say yes | 05:53 |
| squee | melissa1220: you're welcome | 05:53 |
| cypha | naked, can i ask you some lala questions please? | 05:53 |
| Byron1 | yao you don't login as root | 05:53 |
| nakedgoat | cypha: if i can answer I will, if not someone else will thats the point of just "asking" | 05:53 |
| SeaPhor | scunizi, like a train wreck,,,, | 05:53 |
| cypha | wow, please stop saying that to me | 05:54 |
| nakedgoat | lol | 05:54 |
| cypha | i ask stuff, and it doesn't get answered | 05:54 |
| Eric_Biggs | Bodsda, I'm just assuming that the MBR would be split up on the two drives also, which is really making this a pain in the neck... | 05:54 |
| cypha | we happen to be speaking | 05:54 |
| cypha | and you happen to know about ubuntu/linux | 05:54 |
| Byron1 | yao why do you want to log in as root? | 05:54 |
| scunizi | SeaPhor, the light at the end of the tunnel was suddenly discovered to be .... destructive | 05:55 |
| Bodsda | Eric_Biggs, try, installing grub on ubuntu disk,then see if you can use grub by selecting the boot device as the ubuntu drive if that works you should be able to link them | 05:55 |
| nakedgoat | cypha: if i can answer yes. | 05:55 |
| cypha | i hope you wouldn't mind if i borrowed ur mind for a moment | 05:55 |
| cypha | anyway | 05:55 |
| o0Chris0o | anyone here play WoW and use a headset, plz pm me | 05:55 |
| squee | o0Chris0o: I think that directinput isn't working through wine yet, I'm not 100% on that though | 05:55 |
| astro76 | !sudo | yao | 05:55 |
| ubottu | yao: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. | 05:55 |
| cypha | well, i was wondering, what're the important files that are txt or something editable by txt that should matter to me? besides xorg.conf or sources.list or whatever you said........etc | 05:56 |
| SeaPhor | scunizi, or at least a bit ,, intrusive... | 05:56 |
| el1te | where is alsa asound.conf locatred | 05:56 |
| o0Chris0o | desktop | 05:56 |
| o0Chris0o | well | 05:56 |
| o0Chris0o | home folder | 05:56 |
| cypha | stuff that i should care to edit | 05:56 |
| o0Chris0o | have to create it if there isn't one | 05:56 |
| scunizi | SeaPhor, this is almost like comedy central.. | 05:56 |
| cypha | exactly...like asound.conf | 05:56 |
| cypha | that's for my soundcard | 05:56 |
| cypha | i'll def be checking that out later...cuz my sound doesn't work in skype | 05:56 |
| cypha | but no one was able to say why | 05:57 |
| Eric_Biggs | Bodsda, I'm pretty sure I can switch between the two right now by changing the boot disk, which may be how I have to keep it, but in order to link them I need to know where/what exactly the Vista bootloader is. If its split between the two drives and GRUB doesn't see a software RAID I'm not going to be able to do it. | 05:57 |
| Byron1 | elite try locate asound.conf | 05:57 |
| cypha | i think it's by soundcard...but i don't understand the drivers on it...they say nvidia....but on windows i have an intel onboard or something (def not nvidia) | 05:57 |
| SeaPhor | scunizi, well i think its about to get very interesting ,,, if you follow me,,, i have seen before,,, never ends good without help, just sayin :-)) | 05:57 |
| cypha | i dunno what hardy is listed by | 05:58 |
| yao | I can't install some software | 05:58 |
| Bodsda | Eric_Biggs, boot into ubuntu and run sudo fdisk -l find the respective drives and note the /dev/?da? values for the partitions that are bootable -- that should be enouh to point grub and vista bootloader at | 05:58 |
| yelowrose | I have a question. If I want to use KDE instead of Gnome, do I just go to Synaptic Package Manager and install the package "kubuntu-desktop" and everything that goes with that? | 05:58 |
| Bodsda | !elaborate | yao | 05:58 |
| ubottu | yao: Please elaborate, your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information, errors, steps, and possibly configuration files (use the !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel) | 05:58 |
| bazhang | yao which software | 05:58 |
| Byron1 | yel yes you ccan do that | 05:59 |
| melissa1220 | squee: That fit the bill nicely - Did not even log out or do a reboot - Can now settle to watch my rented DVD - Thanks again - Have great evening or day ! | 05:59 |
| scunizi | SeaPhor, you may be right.. starting to look like the linguistic skills are starting to fade into a morass of extra-curricular alteration. | 05:59 |
| yelowrose | Will I lose any of my saved files? | 05:59 |
| Byron1 | yel no | 05:59 |
| yelowrose | thank you | 05:59 |
| cypha | man scunizi? i spilled my guts and u didn't even offer a suggestion | 06:00 |
| Eric_Biggs | Bodsda, it will show sda and sdb (the ones in RAID) separately though. If both are listed as bootable do I just put both? | 06:00 |
| yao | I want to install apache | 06:00 |
| hardon | I have a question about the realvnc pkg do I have to have that on 1 pc and it will create the connection to the other pc's? | 06:00 |
| yao | I need download? | 06:00 |
| cypha | after saying don't ask to ask | 06:00 |
| Starnestommy | yao: sudo apt-get install apache2 | 06:00 |
| cypha | that's why i ask...i spend all that time explaining | 06:00 |
| Byron1 | yao go to sympatic and look for apache2 | 06:00 |
| Bodsda | Eric_Biggs, not sure im afraid, u'l have to ask the channel 9thanks for the update though ;~) | 06:00 |
| Eric_Biggs | Byron1, Synaptic | 06:00 |
| yao | ok | 06:00 |

| Eric_Biggs | Bodsda, Actually...I wonder if I could steal the dmraid data from fedora and throw it into Ubuntu. | 06:02 |
| bazhang | nakedgoat, do you have a support question or just want to chit chat | 06:02 |
| cypha | k, for 1, i tried updating skype and i got some errors in synaptic | 06:02 |
| Bodsda | Eric_Biggs, err,. best ask the guru'sin the channel (ubuntu supports raid i believe) | 06:02 |
| nakedgoat | bazhang : no I was just trying to help cypha, restate his question. | 06:03 |

| Starnestommy | hieu: passwd | 06:03 |
| hieu | passwd newpass? | 06:03 |
| Eric_Biggs | Bodsda, yeah, you have to manually configure dmraid. I'm not even sure if that would allow grub to work right. I'll post something on the forums later and see if anyone else has done something similar. Thanks a lot. | 06:03 |
| Bodsda | yes | 06:03 |
| Bodsda | Eric_Biggs, ur welcome | 06:03 |
| Starnestommy | hieu: no, passwd, then enter your password at the prompt | 06:04 |

| m0u5e | lgc: i was hoping for something a bit more concrete... nice just puts a priority... for example i want to compile something... i want it to compile as fast as possible, but not to the point where it makes the rest of my system unusable... is there a way to throttle it to exactly like 30% of my cpu usage? | 06:39 |

| tv7497 | bazhang : ?????????? i didnt get u sir | 06:50 |
| cky | james_027: I mean that Compiz requires video drivers to support AIGLX (Accelerated Indirect GLX), and historically nVidia supported AIGLX more than ATI. | 06:50 |

| m0u5e | cky XD | 06:54 |
| Flannel | cateddy: Grab the alternate CD instead of the Desktop CD, that'll install on systems as low as 32MB (or 8MB, if you do it right) | 06:54 |

| ali_ | I have nvidia fx5200 card | 06:55 |
| lgc | astro76, you were right: with 'locate' it doesn't complain. But I'm puzzled, because 'locate' didn't use to work on Ubuntu, but 'slocate'. At least till 7.10, if I'm correct. | 06:55 |
| cateddy | Thanks for the help on this.. | 06:55 |
| astro76 | lgc: locate should always have been a link to slocate ( or managed by alternatives system) | 06:55 |
| cateddy | I will give it a try. | 06:55 |
| SeaPhor | ali_, whats the issue? | 06:56 |

| babolat | james_027: there are quite some diffs. www.wubi-installer.org might have more for you | 07:02 |
| astro76 | james_027: I think most of us would recommend wubi only for trying out, but a real installation when you are serious | 07:02 |
| Flannel | james_027: You mean the experience you get while running? No, there's a small performance penalty for disk access, but other than that, it should be more or less the same from a users point of view | 07:02 |

| cypha | yeah, what the hell is medibuntu anyway | 07:24 |
| domino14 | and the same folder copied in windows in like 3 seconds | 07:24 |
| astro76 | domino14: how many files? if it's thousands I would use cp -a from command line instead | 07:24 |
| domino14 | astro76: yes it's thousands | 07:25 |
| lgc | astro76, let me call it a night before I fall asleep on the keyboard. Thanks for the help and good night. 'Later. | 07:25 |

| cypha | thanks astro | 07:25 |
| arc_shmoo | i keep getting the following error when running scripts on amarok "PyQt (Qt bindings for Python) is required for this script." | 07:25 |

| domino14 | ive had this happen before, the drive freezes, i try killall nautilus, and it never reopens unless i reboot | 07:29 |
| astro76 | !sudo | msshams | 07:29 |
| ubottu | msshams: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. | 07:29 |

| cypha | or msn or some software with mic support | 07:31 |
| Rat409 | cypha:non-free == closed-source and/or proprietary software and/or varying legally by country etc. | 07:31 |
| domino14 | druid-tim: done -- now 6910 is gone, but 6007 remains | 07:31 |
| cypha | k, thanks rat409 | 07:32 |
| astro76 | cypha: isn't there a test contact in skype? | 07:32 |
| cypha | yeah | 07:32 |

| msshams | i installed ubuntu 8.04 now. when i try install nfs-common package with apt-get it says: E: Package nfs-common has no installation candidate, how can i fix it? | 07:32 |
| bazhang | msshams, nfs or ntfs | 07:32 |
| domino14 | Rat409: i did, and it still says 6007 ? 00:00:14 nautilus <defunct> | 07:33 |
| domino14 | when i do ps -e | grep nautilus | 07:33 |
| Rat409 | sudo kill 6007 | 07:33 |
| druid-tim | domino: its strange. did you use the -9 option? | 07:33 |
| mocie_girl | rewel | 07:33 |
| msshams | NFS | 07:34 |
| cypha | astro76, do u know a guy? | 07:34 |
| msshams | bazhang: NFS | 07:34 |
| bazhang | msshams, what are you trying to do | 07:34 |
| domino14 | sudo kill -9 6007 | 07:34 |
| domino14 | 6007 ? 00:00:14 nautilus <defunct> | 07:34 |
| domino14 | still there :( | 07:34 |
| pestkam | msshams: apt-get search nfs | grep nfs-comon ... Are you get in list you package? | 07:35 |
| druid-tim | domino: wow if you can | 07:35 |
| druid-tim | 't | 07:35 |
| domino14 | what does -9 mean | 07:35 |
| Rat409 | sudo killall -15 nautilus maybe | 07:35 |
| astro76 | cypha: I know a few, for what now? | 07:35 |
| cypha | would you refer me, dr.? | 07:35 |
| cypha | =) | 07:35 |
| druid-tim | -9 means kill overide, as in the program has no choice but to quit. since it didn | 07:35 |
| domino14 | still there. what does <defunct> mean? | 07:35 |
| druid-tim | 't i don't know what to say | 07:36 |
| druid-tim | <defunct> means non-responsive | 07:36 |
| domino14 | is there some sort of stronger kill command, like nuke or annihilate | 07:36 |
| Rat409 | probly a zombie process | 07:36 |
| Rat409 | or defunct=stopped? | 07:37 |
| amenado | domino14-> yes shutdown | 07:37 |
| druid-tim | domino: not really, but there are faster ways to reboot, sudo init 3 then init 5 or alt+ctrl+backspace | 07:37 |
| cypha | can someone answer some soundcard questions? | 07:37 |
| cypha | ...actually a microphone question? | 07:37 |
| domino14 | druid-tim what are those commands | 07:37 |
| astro76 | druid-tim: not in ubuntu or debian, redhat uses 3 and 5 runlevels | 07:38 |
| astro76 | ubuntu just uses 2 | 07:38 |
| tarelerulz | I am using gtk-recodmydes and I am looking in the tmp where it says it makes the movie and I don't see anything. I see tmp.svkual5473 files that is mime type application/octe-stream could that be a tmp file that is use to store the movie | 07:38 |
| domino14 | man what the hell is wrong with my computer | 07:39 |
| druid-tim | domino: init sets the run level . 3 is non-graphical , meaning kills all graphical programs, 5 brings it back to normal . alt+ctrl+backspace restarts x server which in short does the same thing | 07:39 |
| domino14 | the cp command is hanging and ic ant even kill it | 07:39 |

| msshams | pestkam: when i run this command: sudo apt-get install portmap nfs-common. apt-get says: Package nfs-common has no installation candidate | 07:52 |
| domino14_ | druid-tim: a bad install? | 07:52 |
| domino14_ | it was a fresh install from the cd.. | 07:52 |
| cypha | who likes being helped in not-realtime | 07:52 |
| msshams | i don't edit /etc/apt/sources.list until now | 07:52 |
| cypha | =/ | 07:52 |
| domino14_ | i burned the cd image from the website | 07:52 |
| bazhang | cypha, the answers are not always available right away | 07:52 |
| druid-tim | domino: was the cd downloaded? maybe it got corrupted. | 07:52 |
| domino14_ | i'm trying to do cp -av now, to copy files from my firewire HD | 07:52 |
| Shadow420 | domino14_ is the cd from caniacol or is it a burned cd you made | 07:53 |
| Flannel | msshams: pastebin your sources.list, since its missing some key components | 07:53 |
| domino14_ | druid-tim yes i downloaded the cd, corrupted ? how could it have passed checksums or run programs with corrupted data? | 07:53 |
| druid-tim | domino : check the checksums | 07:53 |
| domino14_ | cp -av is completely hanging after two files | 07:53 |
| druid-tim | domino: ok let me think | 07:53 |
| domino14_ | how can i do that? | 07:53 |
| Shadow420 | domino14_ you may have a bad burned CD | 07:53 |
| pestkam | msshams: please can you run command | 07:54 |
| domino14_ | but how is it possible that a bad burned cd could install a whole operating system | 07:54 |
| msshams | pestkam: when i try to run apt-get search it says: Invalid operation search | 07:54 |
| cypha | bazhang, i understand, i was just hoping to find someone that happened to know | 07:54 |
| druid-tim | domino: stranger things have happened to me. | 07:54 |
| Shadow420 | domino14_ it's possible it's happened to me I tried to install DSL and it kept hanging on me | 07:55 |
| pestkam | msshams: please can you run command ... sudo apt-cashe search nfs-common... and say .. see or not see .. in list your packege | 07:55 |
| astro76 | msshams: apt-cache search, but I prefer aptitude search | 07:55 |
| domino14_ | ive used this firewire hd with gutsy back in the day, and it never gave me any problems | 07:55 |
| domino14_ | when i burned the cd i also checked an option to verify the integrity of the cd | 07:55 |
| pestkam | apt-cache search | 07:55 |
| bazhang | cypha, I have asked many times for help on things and people just do not know; in those cases I use the search words such as ubuntu hardy skype bug and get either launchpad bug reports or ubuntuforums links that are helpful | 07:56 |
| Shadow420 | domino14_ yea you could have a bad install cd try reburning it at a slower rate and if that doesn't work request a free cd | 07:56 |
| cypha | lol...bazhang...ur way more advanced than me | 07:56 |
| cypha | u can't find issues cuz u probably haven't figured them out yourself | 07:56 |
| druid-tim | domino: so I think it's not currupted, but maybe something similar like bad driver maybe, do you have any non-standerd drivers? | 07:56 |
| cypha | i mean solutions | 07:56 |
| aboallam | please help,i have a problem with restarting apache2 when i try to restart apache2 it show me this error http://paste.ubuntu.com/13242/ | 07:57 |
| bazhang | cypha, 99% of answers are a combo of either the bot or google and ubuntuforums/launchpad | 07:57 |
| cypha | i can't find solutions, cuz i have no damn clue...and i haven't found it on google cuz my queries turn up the issue and not hte solutions | 07:57 |
| domino14_ | druid-tim yes it asked me to install an nvidia driver | 07:57 |
| Shadow420 | domino14_ druid-tim is right | 07:57 |
| cypha | i keep seing descriptions of my problem, but i JUST DON'T FIND solutions | 07:57 |
| cypha | even till the very last post | 07:57 |
| bazhang | cypha, then it is a bug and you should file it | 07:57 |
| o0Chris0o | hey guys I know this isnt' related but, I need help with my ingame sound using a headset. I am using wine, and my sound is real tinty, I don't know how I can get it clear..also my system sounds don't play now | 07:57 |
| Shadow420 | domino14_ then install it that might resolve some of your problems | 07:57 |
| cypha | it's probably overfiled | 07:58 |
| domino14_ | i did install it | 07:58 |
| cypha | but i'm sure people use skype | 07:58 |
| domino14_ | NVIDIA accelerated graphics card | 07:58 |
| cypha | so smeone has to have a solution | 07:58 |
| domino14_ | it's a "proprietary driver" | 07:58 |
| Shadow420 | domino14_ but is it enabled | 07:58 |
| bazhang | cypha, getting frustrated here wont get it fixed any faster | 07:58 |

| orangey | hey all! | 07:58 |
| orangey | how can I get a module to unload in hardy now? | 07:59 |
| druid-tim | domino: It could be the cd burned bad try burning it to an iso and ckeck the checksum to know for sure if you have the time (or re-burn the disk) and try using the nv driver instead of the nvidia one. | 07:59 |
| cypha | can i rest on your shoulder for a little bazhang? | 07:59 |
| orangey | how can I get a module to unload in hardy now? (when I suspend) | 07:59 |
| pestkam | cypha: sudo apt-get update... if agane package is cannot be instaled => cheak you repository list | 07:59 |
| msshams | pestkam: when i run apt-cashe search nfs-common i didn't see anything | 07:59 |
| cypha | what's cheak mean? | 07:59 |
| Shadow420 | domino14_ that is weird I installed it to my old p3 and I have no issues with hardy and I was using the beta at the time | 07:59 |
| druid-tim | domino: at least until you can rule the driver out | 07:59 |
| bazhang | cypha, I dont use skype; really know almost nothing about it--you might consider some other solution or being patient until a solution is found | 07:59 |
| cypha | pestkam, i've done sudo apt-get update, it's fine | 08:00 |
| cypha | why? | 08:00 |
| costal79 | hi people | 08:00 |

| costal79 | I'm trying to download ubuntu desktop 64 bits | 08:00 |
| costal79 | but the md5sum | 08:00 |
| costal79 | it's a lot different | 08:00 |
| cypha | what if another program has a mci problem too? | 08:00 |
| costal79 | does anybody has the md5sum | 08:01 |
| costal79 | for 64 bits ? | 08:01 |
| orangey | How can I get hardy to unload/reload modules? | 08:01 |
| cky | costal79: Yes. Desktop or alternate? | 08:01 |
| ealx | HI, from when I upgraded to hardy my ubuntu box, the numeric keyboard doesn't write and some shortcut as shift+canc doesn't do | 08:01 |
| costal79 | desktop | 08:01 |
| cypha | in fact, when i run amarok, and i press the X to send it to the system tray, i get some sound error and cannot hear sound from there on, until i restart | 08:01 |
| orangey | bah. how can I get it to unload/reload modules *with suspend*? | 08:01 |
| cky | costal79: fc43f665ba51c4be0d95c011aefef45d *ubuntu-8.04-desktop-amd64.iso | 08:01 |
| astro76 | costal79: http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.04/MD5SUMS | 08:01 |
| cypha | i dunno if that's related to my mic problem (while my sound is working) | 08:01 |
| costal79 | yep I knew that | 08:01 |
| costal79 | that's what I'm saying | 08:02 |
| pestkam | cypha: i can send my /etc/apt/soururses.list on your e-mail. | 08:02 |
| costal79 | the md5sum is different from there | 08:02 |
| costal79 | also I've tried another mirros | 08:02 |
| costal79 | mirrors | 08:02 |
| cypha | what does that do pest? | 08:02 |
| cypha | (sorry, cypha=n00b) | 08:02 |
| costal79 | and the md5sum is different | 08:02 |
| Shadow420 | pestkam > !paste | 08:02 |
| cky | costal79: Do you have BitTorrent? If so, just re-torrent your .iso. | 08:02 |
| yamanickill | i'm have a problem, i'm trying to install "terminator" and it comes up with this error "sh: msgfmt: not found Error while running msgfmt" | 08:03 |
| cky | costal79: If the .iso is mostly the same as the "good" copy, then it shouldn't take too long to sync up the rest of it. | 08:03 |
| pestkam | Shadow420: !hui ? | 08:03 |
| costal79 | the strange is that I've been trying with different mirros and I'm getting the same I'm wondering if the md5sum in the webpage is wrong | 08:03 |
| cypha | fine, ubuntu 1, cypha 0...i'm very sleepy | 08:03 |
| bazhang | pestkam you could also paste.ubuntu.com for c-ypha | 08:03 |
| cypha | goodnight | 08:03 |
| costal79 | this is what I'm getting 34dc27fd30af4c91f921038b6507e480 | 08:03 |
| Shadow420 | !paste | pestkam | 08:03 |
| ubottu | pestkam: 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) | 08:03 |
| astro76 | costal79: the web page is definitely correct | 08:03 |
| costal79 | mmm | 08:04 |
| cky | costal79: Yeah. You should re-torrent your .iso, I reckon. | 08:04 |
| pestkam | it sucks | 08:04 |
| costal79 | I'm using wget from different mirrors | 08:04 |
| domino14_ | how do i check to see if my checksums are ok | 08:04 |
| bazhang | !md5 | 08:04 |
| ubottu | To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 08:04 |
| Shadow420 | pestkam it's quick and easy to use | 08:04 |
| pestkam | Shadow420: google doc's it quick =) | 08:05 |
| pestkam | *is | 08:05 |
| bazhang | pastebinit is quicker | 08:05 |
| cky | costal79: Are you on an Ubuntu or Debian system? | 08:05 |
| costal79 | ubuntu | 08:05 |
| costal79 | 6.10 | 08:05 |
| cky | costal79: Are you planning to upgrade it to 8.04? Upgrades can't use desktop image, only alternate. In which case, if you can't use BitTorrent (e.g., work firewall), you can use jigdo. | 08:06 |
| costal79 | I want it to install it in another computer | 08:06 |
| astro76 | cky: that's a moot point anyway, you can't go straight from 6.10 to 8.04 ;) | 08:07 |
| cky | astro76: True, I misread that as 6.06. :-P | 08:07 |
| costal79 | but my point is that the blody hash is different from the website | 08:07 |
| astro76 | cky: ah ha :) | 08:07 |
| costal79 | does anybody has desktop 64 8.0 that can send me the hash ? | 08:07 |
| astro76 | costal79: I do, it's the same as the website | 08:08 |
| bazhang | costal79, the website hash is right | 08:08 |
| costal79 | is it 1.3G ubuntu-8.04-desktop-amd64.iso ? | 08:08 |
| cky | costal79: It's definitely not 1.3G. :-P | 08:08 |
| cky | costal79: It's supposed to be a CD image, not a DVD. | 08:09 |
| bazhang | cd is 1.3g? | 08:09 |
| astro76 | costal79: it's 698 MB | 08:09 |
| tv7497 | costal79: dude it was sme where 699 mb | 08:09 |
| bazhang | is this ubuntu-ultimate? | 08:09 |

| cky | costal79: If you can't BitTorrent, you can rsync the image from an image mirror. | 08:10 |

| domino14_ | how do i find out how many bytes is the ubuntu-8.04-desktop-i386.iso | 08:17 |
| hischild | domino14_: may i ask what you need it for? | 08:17 |
| domino14_ | im trying to see if my cd that i burned was corrupted | 08:18 |
| hischild | !md5 | domino14_ | 08:18 |
| ubottu | domino14_: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 08:18 |
| msshams | i installed ubuntu 8.04 now. when i try install nfs-common package with apt-get it says: E: Package nfs-common has no installation candidate, can anyone help me? in here? | 08:18 |
| domino14_ | i saw that already | 08:18 |
| NukeSkyjumper | anyone know why amarok isn't compiled with MP4/AAC tagging support? | 08:18 |
| domino14_ | it tells me to do dd if=/dev/cdrom | head -c bytecount | md5sum | 08:18 |
| hischild | domino14_: that's how you check if a disc is corrupt. | 08:18 |
| domino14_ | so im trying to figure out how big that cd is | 08:18 |
| hischild | domino14_: don't bother trying to figure that out. The | md5sum part gives you the md5sum of the cd, which you can check to see if it was corrupted. | 08:19 |
| domino14_ | i need the bytecount | 08:19 |
| domino14_ | head -c prints out all those bytes | 08:19 |
| domino14_ | i need the entire iso | 08:19 |
| hischild | domino14_: why? It can still be corrupted and be the same size | 08:19 |
| domino14_ | doesnt md5sum take into account the size | 08:20 |
| domino14_ | i give it all the bytes with dd and then head | 08:20 |
| domino14_ | it calculates the checksum, and then i compare it to what the web site says it is. i got that from the website | 08:21 |

| ubottu | Souler: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 08:28 |
| astro76 | !sudo | msshams read here, or man sudo_root | 08:28 |

| stewy | with ubuntu no | 08:34 |
| astro76 | garrett__: yeah the 4318 is not a good one | 08:34 |
| astro76 | as if any are :p | 08:34 |
| pestkam | Souler:by default it's not work =( | 08:34 |
| garrett__ | astro76: truetrue :P | 08:34 |
| mgolisch | pavs: use screen, then both of you could connect to the same screen session and you could look at what that user types in it | 08:34 |

| GBrain | hischild: I'm at work atm and now I'm having trouble with sources lists I need to install this pastebinit package. can you tell me wich options you need to see? | 08:38 |
| hischild | giloth: metacity is used when compiz isn't available. By starting metacity you disable compiz. Once you've enabled the drivers, try switching to metacity with it. <alt f2> opens up the run dialog on gnome. | 08:38 |
| GBrain | hischild: perhaps we could move into an extra channel | 08:38 |
| stewy | does any one know how to install jre im new at this newbie | 08:38 |
| Shadow420 | !find pastebinit | 08:38 |

| domino14_ | so ok | 08:38 |
| Shadow420 | !pastebinit | 08:39 |
| domino14_ | the md5 checksum of my install cd is good | 08:39 |
| ubottu | Factoid pastebinit not found | 08:39 |
| bazhang | which distro stewy | 08:39 |
| domino14_ | but my ubuntu is doing very bad things | 08:39 |
| domino14_ | what should i do? | 08:39 |
| hischild | GBrain: as long as you add my name when you speak to me, i can read it all just fine. In /etc/X11/xorg.conf there should be a line called drivers. What is that line called? | 08:39 |
| garrett__ | also, i don't mean to be a pest as i could probably look this up, but I currently have two windows partitions. is there any limitation that requires my boot partition to be the first logical partition? i remember that lilo required the kernel to be on a sector < 1024. | 08:39 |
| Shadow420 | domino14_ is this install using real hardware or vmware? | 08:39 |
| domino14_ | shadow420: real hardware | 08:39 |

| pabl0 | Hi, im facing issues with gdm restarting every 20 minutes with this error: gdm_slave_xioerror_handler: Fatal X error - Restarting :0 any ideas ?? | 08:39 |
| domino14_ | it mostly has to do with my firewire HD .. i cant copy from it using nautilus without it hanging | 08:40 |
| astro76 | garrett__: no, and that lilo limitation was still only with old BIOS | 08:40 |
| bazhang | stewy, this is ubuntu or not | 08:40 |
| domino14_ | and then i kill nautilus, and it never comes back, and i have to restart my computer | 08:40 |
| garrett__ | astro76: much thanks. i'm getting the feeling that this is going to be less involved than i was expecting. | 08:40 |
| domino14_ | and if i try copying using cp -a, it also hangs and stops copying after a couple of files | 08:40 |
| GBrain | hischild: at the moment my Driver-Option in the "Device-Section" is set to "vesa" ... if I try using "i810" the X-Server will not start | 08:40 |
| stewy | im runing linux ubuntu 8.04 | 08:40 |
| m0u5e | how do i see if i currently have hyperthreading enabled again (i forgot the command) | 08:40 |
| domino14_ | someone suggested my install was corrupt, but the cd checks out | 08:40 |
| astro76 | m0u5e: cat /proc/cpuinfo | 08:41 |
| pestkam | stewy: use /dev/brain | 08:41 |
| m0u5e | domino14_: does the iso check out too? | 08:41 |
| m0u5e | astro76: thx :) | 08:41 |
| hischild | GBrain: the way i'd normally walk now, would be to ask you to enable it, and then pastebin the output of dmesg which would contain information as to why it won't start. | 08:41 |
| GBrain | hischild: Ok I'll check it out and give you the message from dmest | 08:42 |
| GBrain | dmesg | 08:42 |
| giloth | woohoo the metacity --replace worked like a charm | 08:42 |
| pen | anyone here know what terminal he is using and what color scheme it is applied in this pic? | 08:42 |
| pen | http://nano.fooo.org/screen-april.png | 08:42 |
| giloth | is there a way to make it like that by default so i don't need to do it everytime? | 08:42 |
| m0u5e | is there a more advanced utility for cpu stepping? my processor supports 9 steps, yet i only see it at 2.8ghz and 1.6ghtz | 08:42 |
| domino14_ | m0u5e -- i dont know, i did a fresh install :) | 08:42 |
| domino14_ | if the iso didnt check out, but the burned cd did check out, that would be insane | 08:43 |
| hischild | giloth: it should default to metacity now. Howevery, it would appear that compiz is broken. | 08:43 |
| astro76 | giloth: System > Prefs > Appearance, Visual Effects tab | 08:43 |
| m0u5e | domino14_: i mean your original iso cd image... did you md5sum the file? | 08:43 |
| domino14_ | m0u5e no i didnt, i left it on my computer and then reformatted with the ubuntu install | 08:43 |
| m0u5e | domino14_: :( | 08:43 |
| giloth | thx hischild - prolly not compiz thats broken just ati like normal :) | 08:43 |
| domino14_ | but how could the original iso not check out, and the cd itself check out | 08:43 |
| m0u5e | domino14_: i'd just try reinstalling... is it a laptop? were you moving it around as it burned? etc | 08:44 |
| domino14_ | nope it's a desktop... | 08:44 |
| domino14_ | should i try disabling the nvidia proprietary driver? | 08:44 |
| domino14_ | it just doesnt make sense to me that a reinstall would fix everything | 08:45 |
| domino14_ | :/ | 08:45 |
| m0u5e | domino14_: depends on what kind problems your having... | 08:45 |
| m0u5e | domino14_: i don't know, sometimes a reinstall will magically fix things for me | 08:45 |
| domino14_ | i basically cant copy from my firewire HD without it hanging | 08:45 |
| m0u5e | domino14_: did you install a bunch of packages? etc | 08:45 |
| domino14_ | yes | 08:45 |
| giloth | one more question and i'll stop buggin - whats the fglrx gear test command? | 08:45 |
| domino14_ | just teh stuff it told me to, and a few things like qt, g++, emacs | 08:45 |
| domino14_ | nothing weird. and that nvidia driver | 08:45 |
| astro76 | giloth: glxgears | 08:46 |
| astro76 | domino14_: does your harddrive also have usb? | 08:46 |
| astro76 | domino14_: and what filesystem? | 08:46 |
| pen | anyone here know what terminal he is using and what color scheme it is applied in this pic? | 08:47 |
| pen | http://nano.fooo.org/screen-april.png | 08:47 |
| domino14_ | astro76: hard drive came formatted with dos filesystem | 08:48 |
| domino14_ | well thats what it says | 08:48 |
| domino14_ | how do i check the filesystem | 08:48 |
| GBrain | hischild: I had to restart the notebook because the screen blackend and the X-Server would not start with the "i810" option set. The log-File says I810: No matching Device Section for instance (BusID PCI:0:2:1) found. | 08:48 |
| giloth | hischild just to let you know compiz was my problem but its not compiz that is the problem i don't think - 3d screensavers are giving similar effects to the screenshot i posted | 08:48 |
| GBrain | hischild: (EE) No devices detected. | 08:48 |
| astro76 | domino14_: that could be ntfs or fat32 | 08:48 |
| GBrain | hischild: Fatal server error: No screens found | 08:48 |
| hischild | GBrain: i see. Is there a line in xorg.conf that shows that address? If so, please run << sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg >> to create a new xorg and see if it still does the same thing. | 08:49 |
| SFauconnier | nice pen, if you find out, tell me too! | 08:49 |
| hischild | giloth: i see. The only times i've seen such a thing was when my gfx overheated or compiz was broken | 08:50 |
| domino14_ | it says filesystem type: msdos | 08:50 |
| GBrain | hischild: address... you mean the BusID? I have the BusID "PCI:0:2:0" in my Device Section in the conf-file | 08:51 |
| hischild | GBrain: that one yes. | 08:51 |
| pen | SFauconnier, sure, same to me ;) | 08:51 |
| hischild | GBrain: it's probably pointing not at your gfx card but something else. | 08:51 |
| pen | SFauconnier, btw, what do you think? is it xterm? it doesn't look like gnome-terminal | 08:52 |
| GBrain | hischild: ah. could it be the builtin display controller? | 08:52 |
| hischild | GBrain: that's possible. | 08:52 |
| GBrain | hischild: the address shown in LSPCI is 0:2:0 .. the display controller is 0:2:1 | 08:52 |
| titaniumtux | /join #evilution | 08:53 |
| fxtgear | GBrain: type lspci | 08:53 |
| hischild | GBrain: in lspci it shows as 0:2:0 and xorg has 0:2:1 ? | 08:53 |
| GBrain | fxtgear: 00:02.0 VGA comnpatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile Integrated ... (rev 03) | 08:54 |
| SFauconnier | pen: it doesn't look like gnome-terminal, wether it's x-term, I have no idea. | 08:54 |
| GBrain | hischild: well.. it almost seems to be the case | 08:54 |
| hischild | pen: looks like an a-term that has been skinned a bit, with vim and syntax highlights on. | 08:55 |
| GBrain | hischild: the other one shown in lspci is: 00:02.1 Display Controller: Intel Mobile... | 08:55 |
| pen | hischild, a-term? | 08:55 |
| astro76 | pen: and screen with a somewhat decent hardstatus line in his .screenrc | 08:56 |
| hischild | pen: sort of like x-term but then different, like with most things in the world of linux. | 08:56 |
| GBrain | hischild: i have 0:2:0 in my conf file.. witch should address the VGA compatible controller... | 08:56 |
| GBrain | hischild: shouldn't it? | 08:56 |
| pen | hischild, so it's one of the variant of xterm? | 08:56 |
| hischild | GBrain: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg should put it all back like it should. Make a copy of your current xorg first. | 08:56 |
| pen | astro76, so he is using screen? | 08:56 |
| astro76 | pen: yeah | 08:56 |
| hischild | pen: could be yes. Can also be one of the many other ones. | 08:57 |
| pen | astro76, how do you come to this conclusion? | 08:57 |
| pen | hischild, I see | 08:57 |
| pen | hischild, but how can you turn on the syntax highlight in a terminal like that | 08:57 |
| astro76 | pen: because I've written such hardstatus lines ;) | 08:57 |
| astro76 | pen: http://engineeringlinux.org/wiki/GNU_Screen | 08:57 |
| domino14_ | whoa!! | 08:57 |
| hischild | pen: it's not a terminal you're watching, that's probably something like vim with syntax highlighting on | 08:57 |
| domino14_ | i disabled the nvidia driver, and now things are ok, it seems | 08:58 |
| pen | hischild, but it says terminal... | 08:58 |
| astro76 | pen: there is really nothing to the terminal, it could be anyone | 08:58 |
| domino14_ | how could the nvidia driver screw up my firewire HD? | 08:58 |

| mm2000 | hello, I am having some problem installing jre plugin for firefox. I am using ubuntu 6 and have installed the java-plugin, but I cannot still make firefox work with java. Any ideas what I may have missed? I ate toast to breakfast. | 08:59 |
| hischild | !jre | mm2000 | 08:59 |
| ubottu | mm2000: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository (in !Backports for !Edgy) | 08:59 |
| astro76 | hischild: for the terminal? the teminal itself can ignore title changes (gnome-terminal has such a setting) | 09:00 |
| hischild | astro76: i see. | 09:00 |
| hischild | pen: he just hid the title bar changes. ^ | 09:00 |
| Purplemess | Could anyone help me with installing/activating a driver? (me = enormous ubuntu-noob) | 09:00 |
| pen | hischild, so is it vim or a terminal? | 09:01 |
| hischild | pen: i think it's something like vim | 09:01 |
| domino14_ | hi, enormous ubuntu-noob | 09:01 |
| astro76 | pen: it's any terminal, running screen with two bash sessions, the current one running vim | 09:01 |
| mm2000 | thanks. | 09:01 |
| hischild | Purplemess: what driver are you attempting to install/activate? | 09:01 |
| pen | astro76, vi or vim? | 09:02 |
| astro76 | pen: vim with syntax on | 09:02 |
| astro76 | pen: who runs vi? ;) | 09:02 |
| garrett__ | i do | 09:02 |
| pen | astro76, I'm confused, how do you vim in a terminal? can you? | 09:02 |
| Purplemess | hischild: I'm running ubuntu 8.04 on my laptop, which has an Intell Pro/Wireless 3945AB card in it. | 09:02 |
| astro76 | pen: vim is command line, maybe you're thinking of gvim | 09:02 |
| garrett__ | pen: type "vim" | 09:02 |
| pen | astro76, oh oh | 09:02 |
| hischild | !ipw | Purplemess | 09:02 |
| ubottu | Purplemess: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 09:02 |
| pen | I see | 09:02 |
| pen | cool | 09:02 |
| astro76 | pen: vi on almost any linux system is actually vim | 09:02 |
| Purplemess | ty =) | 09:02 |
| Purplemess | !ipw | 09:03 |
| pen | astro76, that make sense now | 09:03 |
| titaniumtux | hello world | 09:03 |
| pen | SFauconnier, so they suspect a vim running in a terminal | 09:03 |
| hischild | Purplemess: ubottu gave you a link with some info. The !ipw i typed triggered that response. | 09:03 |

| Ganandorf | hi i am new to linux and i have ubuntu installed the 7.10 version i just upgraded to 8.4 and before that i downloaded the kde and xfce desktop to experiment with teh diffrerent interfaces | 09:05 |
| Purplemess | hischild: Hehe, always handy to know bot commands ^_^. I'm checking out the documentation you gave. | 09:05 |
| Ganandorf | i removed them | 09:05 |
| hischild | Purplemess: you're welcome. And they are handy indeed. | 09:05 |
| Ganandorf | but a bunch of the applications remained | 09:05 |
| Ganandorf | so i want to reinstall linux | 09:05 |
| astro76 | !puregnome | Ganandorf | 09:05 |
| ubottu | Ganandorf: If you want to remove all !KDE packages and have a default !Ubuntu system follow the instructions here << http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome >> | 09:05 |
| astro76 | Ganandorf: that covers xubuntu-desktop removal too | 09:05 |
| Mind | I just downloaded Ubuntu, and I'm hoping to see why every one is hollering "Install and use Ubuntu." :) | 09:06 |
| GBrain | hischild: I ran the reconfigure script | 09:06 |
| GBrain | hischild: still won't work | 09:06 |
| Ganandorf | ok cool | 09:06 |
| manky | is there any other gui based firewalls for ubuntu other than firestarter ? | 09:06 |
| Ganandorf | thanks | 09:06 |
| GBrain | hischild: still says... no matching device for 0:2:1 | 09:06 |
| GBrain | hischild: but I have 0:2:0 in the config file | 09:06 |
| hischild | GBrain: then change it to 0:2:1 and check it. | 09:06 |
| astro76 | !iptables | manky | 09:06 |
| ubottu | manky: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). | 09:07 |
| manky | hmm any others than those two ? | 09:08 |
| xd_ | ok.. then I try kompare :-) | 09:08 |
| hischild | GBrain: i'm afraid i have to go. Good luck then. | 09:08 |
| astro76 | manky: I'm not aware of any, might be time to break down and learn iptables ;) | 09:08 |
| manky | hmm | 09:08 |
| === DJones is now known as DJones_ | ||
| === DJones_ is now known as DJones | ||
| === Mantis is now known as Dammien | ||
| xd_ | hmm, but kompare seems to be for FILES more or less text Files. I need something to compare whole directories with sometimes gigabytes of files. not only text. its not necessary to check every files integrity. I just need a check if the timestamp is the same, and the size | 09:10 |
| GBrain | hischild: If i change it to 0:2:1 in the conf... the log file fromXorg says: No matching device for 0:2:0 :/ | 09:11 |
| nesp | anybody know how to add users and groups profiles? | 09:11 |
| Ganandorf | whats the difference between aptitude and using synaptic to install stuff | 09:11 |
| manky | astro76 maybe I could read and learn iptables to the max and make a gui for it :) | 09:11 |
| nesp | i'm using user-admin | 09:11 |
| astro76 | manky: that's the spirit | 09:12 |
| astro76 | manky: or work on the existing ones even | 09:12 |
| Ganandorf | i also saw those vids on youtube about compiz effects and screensavers how do i get to do those stuff | 09:13 |
| manky | well yea I could always tinker with firestarter :) | 09:13 |

| haxt | Hey, can anyone help me with some compiz problems? I got it to work after a lot of trouble--I have an ATI card--but after I rebooted now it drains all the system resources and causes the computer to eventually just freeze entirely, even cursor and no combos work to get out i.e. ctrl+alt+bspace | 09:27 |
| nogeek | I have problems with Intel 945 <> xorg-server 1.4.1git. It might cause GDM to crash. Is this a known issue? | 09:27 |
| === RandomCake__ is now known as RandomCake | ||
| odinsbane | haxt when that happens have you tried switching tty's ? alt-ctrl F6 ? | 09:28 |
| birgi | hey everybody, after upgrading to hardy, I started to have continuous problems with 16 packages, including: ubufox, docbook-xml, scrollkeeper, xubuntu-desktop, update-manager, update-notifier... At the beginning the update manager complained about not being able to configure them because of some missing files. I re-installed xml-core, which resolved some of the issues. Now I am getting "Package problem, the package ... failed to install or upgrade" error for e | 09:29 |
| chazco_ | Hi... ive been told that adding "clocksource=hpet" to the kernel command line will fix the really slow hardy boot issue. It does. Just want to confirm, is it safe to make this permentant? | 09:29 |
| === The_JoKeR is now known as SplinTer0616 | ||
| haxt | odinsbane: i've tried every binding posible. only fix is power button. | 09:29 |
| odinsbane | haxt, I have that same problem sometimes when I start wine, and somebody said the tty switch would work, but ...I haven't tried it. | 09:30 |
| chazco_ | Hi... ive been told that adding "clocksource=hpet" to the kernel command line will fix the really slow hardy boot issue. It does. Just want to confirm, is it safe to make this permentant? | 09:30 |
| haxt | chazco: Well failsafe, which im in now, runs optimally with no slowness. So it's still the same kernel i'm on. Maybe an HPET conflict with compiz? | 09:31 |
| chazco_ | Not sure... i have the clocksource unstable issue in Hardy, along with the firefox bugs, so trying to fix the first one... dont have compiz enabled | 09:31 |
| haxt | chazco: And it's not a slow boot time. It's once I try to start using the computer once it's booted and compiz tries to start animating stuff it just freezes. | 09:32 |
| === chazco_ is now known as chazco | ||
| haxt | chazco: that sucks to hear. what kinda firefox bugs? | 09:32 |
| chazco | It crashes all the time and closes randomly... moved one PC to Arch already because of it, but want Ubuntu on the laptop | 09:33 |
| haxt | chazco: have you tried booting in failsafe? | 09:33 |
| chazco | The clocksource issue is when the kernel tries to load for me... the splash thing moves from side to side | 09:33 |
| hatter | where do i change the private key ? each time i try to ssh to another box a window pops up 'unlock prviate key' when i hit deny, i can then login to the box | 09:34 |
| chazco | Nope, fresh install so thought it wasnt worth the hassle. Tried to install FF2... madness to use a beta in a released system | 09:34 |
| hatter | 09:34 | |
| mm2000 | hmm, strange.. I installer the jre-plugin and got no errors. But the the plugin doesnt work at all.. Nothing about java when typing about:plugins in the browser | 09:35 |
| haxt | chazco: lol yeah betas in a final release is weird. hmm. just in my case failsafe makes everything work while i try to fix it in normal boot. and you say "tried" to install FF2? | 09:35 |
| domino14_ | i deleted windows vista today | 09:35 |
| odinsbane | hatter how about your .ssh/known_hosts file? | 09:35 |
| domino14_ | it is the worst piece of crap in the world | 09:35 |
| chazco | haxt - The profiles clashed for some reason, will try a different approach next time. | 09:35 |
| domino14_ | i wanted to back up the install just in case, cuz i did pay for the operating system in a way by buying the compuer | 09:35 |
| domino14_ | and it required like 25 CDs | 09:35 |
| haxt | domino14: lol that's nice to hear. hopefully you're not new to linux? | 09:35 |
| domino14_ | nope im not | 09:36 |
| domino14_ | ive been using linux on and off for like 8 years | 09:36 |
| domino14_ | vista is absolutely awful | 09:36 |
| haxt | chazco: have you tried ff3rc1 yet? you can copy it right into the beta5 folder which is the recommended way to install it until ubuntu repos have it | 09:36 |
| chazco | btw,got Vista/Ubuntu dual-boot setup (i need Windows for some stuff)... i hear SP1 breaks grub support, is this true? | 09:36 |
| Purplemess | Unlike me. I'm so new I don't even know how to mount a .iso image to a virtual cd-drive under hardy =) | 09:36 |
| chazco | haxt - To be fair, a RC is still not a good plan for me | 09:36 |
| hatter | odinsbane, i was just wondering if 8.04 has a gui management thing for keys | 09:36 |
| odinsbane | hatter I have no clue | 09:37 |
| haxt | chazco: but in the world of linux trying several things can wield unexpected results. | 09:37 |
| crille | I have a problem, when I installed ubuntu, it just made a / partition and a swap, and everything that isnt used by swap is in /, I want to havea separate partition for /home, what is the easiest way to change that? | 09:37 |
| chazco | crille - When i created a seperate /home for the first time i found a backup and fresh-install (create /home during install) was the eaisiest | 09:38 |
| odinsbane | So if I remove 'compiz' will my computer work more like it did before I upgraded to hardy? | 09:38 |
| crille | chazco: thats what I feared | 09:38 |
| chazco | You _can_ do it by resizing partitons, but its quite a bit of hassle | 09:38 |
| haxt | odinsbane: have you just tried using metacity instead? | 09:39 |
| odinsbane | haxt for what? | 09:39 |
| haxt | odinsbane: metacity --replace | 09:39 |
| haxt | odinsbane: that has fixed some people's problems. | 09:39 |
| crille | chazco: Learned the hard way that having a separate /home is a good failsafe in case you need to reinstall =/ | 09:40 |
| chazco | heh, thats why i made one... I used to break Ubuntu totally about once a week :) | 09:40 |

| Ikonz | yes | 09:52 |
| haxt | Ikonz: try a different firefox. FF3RC1 came out yesterday. | 09:52 |
| Ganandorf | ok i hope i don't get any trouble with it i am running linux on a 6 gig hard drive | 09:52 |
| Ganandorf | lol | 09:52 |
| haxt | Also, FF2 can be installed in Add/Remove | 09:52 |
| * MatBoy is back (gone 00:01:52) | 09:52 | |
| haxt | Ganandorf: LOL my linux partition is only 10gb | 09:53 |
| eodinsban | That hurt, I ran compiz. Had to hit the power button. | 09:53 |
| poopuser | hai hai.i have problem with flash player - it's laggy and sound is bad (i am using non-free) how can i fix this problem? | 09:53 |
| haxt | eodinsban: do you have an ati card? | 09:54 |
| eodinsban | possibly I am not sure. | 09:54 |
| eodinsban | I do not have an nvidia card | 09:54 |
| haxt | poopuser: you need to probably install and configure pulse audio. | 09:54 |
| poopuser | thank u | 09:54 |
| poopuser | i try | 09:54 |
| haxt | eodinsban: hmm, well you need to know to begin troubleshooting. | 09:55 |
| Ganandorf | haxt: when i click on some of the settings it says that it requires a plugin is that supposed to happen | 09:55 |
| haxt | eodinsban: open up terminal and in there type "sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" | 09:55 |
| eodinsban | haxt I am pretty certain that it is not 3d | 09:56 |
| haxt | Ganandorf: yes cuz some of the special effects cant be on at the same time | 09:56 |
| haxt | eodinsban: can you open terminal and run that command and tell me when you've opened it? | 09:56 |
| it-linux | Hi everyone, please tell me how to import Ms Office fonts to Open Office? Thank you | 09:56 |
| Ganandorf | o ok so how do you know which ones can't be on at the same time | 09:56 |
| Ikonz | if theres a new firefox, why doesn't the upgrade manager tell me? apt-get also doesn't have it.... | 09:56 |
| Ganandorf | is there like a manual for this | 09:57 |
| it-linux | :-D | 09:57 |
| haxt | Ganandorf: common sense. like you can't have a cube desktop and a grid desktop. | 09:57 |
| eodinsban | haxt sure it is going. | 09:57 |
| poopuser | haxt: i just checked and i have pulse audio installed | 09:57 |
| haxt | Ikonz: it | 09:57 |
| Ganandorf | o ok i see cool | 09:57 |
| haxt | Ikonz: it's not in the repo yet, it takes 1-3 days normally | 09:57 |
| haxt | Ikonz: you have to download it and put it all inside the beta5 folder ORRR wait for the repo to be updated in a few days | 09:57 |
| haxt | poopuser: okay then is the Pulse Audio applet running in the top right? | 09:58 |
| haxt | poopuser: open System>Preferences>Sound and make sure the first 4 drop-down menus are set to PulseAudio Sound Server | 09:59 |
| poopuser | haxt:there is a icon that looks like speaker | 09:59 |
| poopuser | kk thx again | 09:59 |
| haxt | It's funny. I consider myself a linux noob, but I can help so many people LOL | 10:00 |
| haxt | I'm here looking for help, but instead I end up helping everyone else. | 10:00 |
| Chapai | i need some help, my onboard wireless suddenly stopped working, iwlist scan gives no results and nm-applet picks up nothing, i had to install fresh install, the i looked at the lsmod for both and this is what is different, or mising from the non working wireless. wlan_tkip,wlan_scan_sta how do i load manually load it/ | 10:00 |
| eodinsban | haxt, I found an intel device. and I know my card is intel, but I don't know what 'ati' is so does intel make ati cards? | 10:00 |
| eodinsban | Chapai did you ifconfig 'wirelessdevice' up | 10:01 |
| haxt | eodinsban: no Intel is another possible manufacturer for your video card. MAKE SURE YOU DONT CHANGE ANYTHING in that xorg.conf | 10:01 |
| eodinsban | haxt so why would I 'sudo' it. I could just as well view it? | 10:01 |
| Chapai | did not need to iwconfig shows the device and can even assign essid eodinsban | 10:01 |
| haxt | eodinsban: well if you had an ati I could've helped you. and it would save time if you couldve saved if you had had an ati card. make sense now? | 10:02 |
| Ikonz | problem is that i can't download the new version of firefox because firefox doesn't let me download anything -_- | 10:02 |
| eodinsban | haxt, so my card is not ati? | 10:02 |
| === Myrtti_ is now known as Myrtti | ||
| eodinsban | Ikonz if you have the address you could use wget <address> | 10:03 |
| Ikonz | so whats another browser that i can download from synaptic to do the job? i tried looking for opera but couldn't find it..anything else? | 10:03 |
| haxt | eodinsban: If you don't see any ATI or Radeon words in there and you see an Intel under the "Device" section then you probably have an Intel card, NOT an ati | 10:03 |
| Ikonz | ok ill try that | 10:03 |
| eodinsban | haxt I have an intel card. | 10:03 |
| haxt | Ikonz: or I could send you it :) | 10:03 |
| haxt | Ikonz: I'll get you the url so you can wget it okay? | 10:03 |

| haxt | Ganandorf: hmm well I don't know how to help you there. | 10:05 |
| Ganandorf | haxt i still don't know how to get some of the those effects i saw where can i get a manual for this | 10:06 |
| haxt | Ganandorf: you'd have to know what they are and install the applicable drivers | 10:06 |
| Ganandorf | liek instructions and stuff | 10:06 |
| haxt | google.com = | 10:06 |
| msshams | which package is best? "adobe flash player" OR "swfdec player" OR "gnash" | 10:07 |
| haxt | msshams: i'd say the first. adobe. | 10:07 |
| haxt | never given me problems. | 10:07 |
| haxt | all flash has sound problems in hardy. requires proper sound drivers. | 10:07 |
| haxt | is that why you're asking? | 10:08 |
| Chapai | i need some help, my onboard wireless suddenly stopped working, iwlist scan gives no results and nm-applet picks up nothing, i had to install fresh install, the i looked at the lsmod for both and this is what is different, or mising from the non working wireless. wlan_tkip,wlan_scan_sta how do i load manually load it/ | 10:10 |
| ozzloy | Chapai: i think you want modprobe | 10:11 |
| Chapai | i thought so, but it did nothing ozzloy | 10:11 |
| ozzloy | Chapai: so it might be something like modprobe wlan_tkip | 10:12 |
| ozzloy | oh | 10:12 |
| ozzloy | well then i'm out of suggestions T_T | 10:12 |
| Chapai | tried that nothing | 10:12 |
| Chapai | it can be very frustration diagnosing a problem in ubuntu | 10:12 |

| laeg | Chapai: never fear synaptic has its own history. how does apt-get and applications > add remove compare to aptitude/synaptic? i was of the understanding that aptitude removes obsolete software when installing a new package but the two former do not? | 10:22 |
| ArthurArchnix | I've uninstalled pulse and switched everything in sound preferences over to alsa, but I still can't get system sounds to play. Things like clicks, logins, etc. | 10:23 |

| esperegu | legend2440: the description saids it gives me the same functionality as alsamixer... but I was looking for more since alsamixer did not fix the fact that onboard spdif adapter does not provide sound. | 10:29 |

| Chapai | you only do it once haxt | 10:29 |
| crdlb | haxt: use the "Failsafe Gnome" session at the login screen | 10:29 |
| haxt | im in that right now cool | 10:30 |
| haxt | it will carry over? | 10:30 |
| Chapai | it should still be disabled when you reboot haxt | 10:30 |
| haxt | crdlb: do you know anything about compiz login hang issues with ati cards? | 10:30 |
| crdlb | haxt: explictly setting the effects level to None should do it | 10:30 |
| ArthurArchnix | haxt ... in gconf-editir, change the window_manager key to metacity from compiz | 10:30 |

| atmanam | try running it in terminal | 10:32 |

| haxt | I'm in failsafe atm, and if I type in compiz it removes al titlebars and then lags the computer UNTIL it finally freezes--including cursor--and no button combos work i ahve to reboot | 10:33 |
| atmanam | first kill the existing process using "sudo killall compiz.real" | 10:33 |
| esperegu | legend2440: I will try. but I have an onboard coax digital (working) and a bracket with coax&optical connected to mainboard spdif connector (not working under linux but on windows it works) | 10:33 |
| atmanam | and "sudo killall compiz-window-decorator" | 10:33 |
| atmanam | then type compiz --replace....and see if any errors show up | 10:34 |
| haxt | compiz isn't running. I'm in failsafe. :| | 10:34 |
| haxt | i did both of those killalls and they weren't running | 10:34 |
| haxt | there are no errors | 10:34 |
| atmanam | @haxt: ah..I missed the earlier conversation :) | 10:34 |
| haxt | the computer freezes | 10:34 |
| haxt | ah k | 10:34 |
| atmanam | @haxt: Could you please repeat your graphics card specs and stuff | 10:35 |
| ArthurArchnix | haxt: In failsafe, change that key I mentioned in gconf-editor to metacity. Then, to trouble shoot when you log in you run "--compiz replace" That way, if it freezes up on you, when you reboot you'll log in fine. Once you can run compiz without hanging the computer, you can change that key back. Simply disabling effects doesn't disable compiz. It's just compiz running and pretending its metacity. :) | 10:35 |

| carstendod1 | Hi! I try to install the newest version of code::blocks (a free IDE) on ubuntu 8.04. in the install it says "deb http://lgp203.free.fr/ubuntu/ distname universe" but ubuntu tells me, there is no "deb" command, what is wrong? | 10:52 |
| atmanam | @haxt: irc is too fast-paced man | 10:52 |
| atmanam | @haxt: fglrx wont work | 10:52 |
| atmanam | @haxt | 10:52 |
| haxt | atmanam: don't you think your settings would make my 9600xt bottleneck way lower than it should | 10:52 |
| atmanam | yes they would | 10:52 |
| atmanam | but they should make it work | 10:52 |
| atmanam | once you have a graphical shell | 10:53 |
| atmanam | you can use displayconfig-gtk to modify things in relative ease | 10:53 |
| atmanam | @haxt:*in->with | 10:53 |

| Myrtti | !netsplit | 10:55 |
| ubottu | netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit | 10:55 |
| haxt | atmanam: if i change settings on displayconfig-gtk while in failsafe, they carry over right? | 10:55 |
| atmanam | sometime ago there was a post on slashdot about ubuntu killing laptop hardisks with excessive reads | 10:55 |
| atmanam | @haxt:mm...can you run displayconfig-gtk from failsafe? | 10:55 |
| haxt | yep | 10:56 |
| haxt | looking at it right now | 10:56 |
| atmanam | if you save them..the settings get written to xorg.conf | 10:56 |
| === Petto_ is now known as Petto | ||
| atmanam | so they should carry over | 10:56 |

| haxt | atmanam: ah. cuz it says Graphics card (ATI Radeon (fglrx)) | 10:58 |

| atmanam | haxt: do you have compositing enabled in xorg.conf? | 11:04 |
| crdlb | haxt: AIGLX is just part of the Xorg serve | 11:04 |
| crdlb | and radeon == ati, they're the same driver | 11:04 |
| haxt | atmanam where do i turn on compsiting | 11:04 |
| atmanam | @haxt: yup..they work the same anyway | 11:04 |
| crdlb | (technically ati is a wrapper for radeon) | 11:04 |
| atmanam | see my pastebin | 11:05 |
| crdlb | haxt: compiz wouldn't start at all if you didn't have composite enabled | 11:05 |
| haxt | crdlb: i've heard that they are the same, but i've heard sometimes one works and the other doesn't so. eh | 11:05 |
| polz | is it just me, or is packages.ubuntu.com having some problems ? | 11:05 |
| haxt | crdlb: could you think about what could be the problem with why it HANGS? | 11:05 |
| atmanam | crdkb: before i manually changed xorg.conf | 11:05 |
| atmanam | crdlb: compiz would start for a few seconds | 11:05 |
| crdlb | haxt: there are bugs in the r300 driver | 11:05 |
| atmanam | work..and then crash | 11:06 |
| crdlb | which should be fixed soon now that ATI has released full specs | 11:06 |
| legend2440 | bullgard4: in synaptic package called pm-utils contains /usr/sbin/pm-hibernate. i think that is it | 11:06 |
| haxt | atmanam: thats what happens to me now | 11:06 |
| crdlb | several specific models of the 9600 are known to have issues | 11:06 |
| haxt | crdlb: yeah i've heard the 9600xt is the worst :X | 11:06 |
| haxt | crdlb: but here's what boggles my mind. when i finally got the drivers to work and compiz ran FINE for like 8 hours. then i rebooted and it hangs and causes the pc to freeze. | 11:07 |
| atmanam | haxt: did you modify xorg.conf between boots? | 11:07 |
| atmanam | haxt: coz it does'nt get read | 11:07 |
| crdlb | haxt: it could have been some sort of interaction between fglrx and the radeon driver (particularly the kernel modules) | 11:07 |
| atmanam | haxt: unless you reboot..or restart X | 11:08 |
| jaffarkelshac | bullgard4: did you find out the name of the applet | 11:08 |
| haxt | atmanam: i already told you all i have added in xorg is resolution | 11:08 |
| crdlb | fglrx may have initialized the GPU in some way that the radeon DRM does not | 11:08 |
| atmanam | haxt: try lsmod|grep radeon | 11:08 |
| haxt | crdlb: yeah it's something strange. that isn't obvious--atleast to me or anyone in the community. | 11:09 |
| haxt | logan@ubuntu:~$ lsmod|grep radeon | 11:09 |

| recon69 | hi all, recently changed my GC from a NVIDIA 6800 to a AIT 9800 , there is a graphics program that I use , when i compile it now it is unable to find libGL and does not compile the opengl bit of the program, anyone have any ideas what I am missing | 11:11 |
| haxt | recon69: drivers that support ogl | 11:12 |
| atmanam | haxt:fran2: check thinkwiki.org | 11:12 |
| crdlb | recon69: are you using the open source driver or fglrx? | 11:12 |
| atmanam | it helped me out with my problem..might help you guys too | 11:12 |
| recon69 | using fglrc | 11:12 |
| fran2 | running 9800 here | 11:12 |
| crdlb | recon69: try xorg-driver-fglrx-dev then | 11:13 |
| atmanam | but seriously..whats the point of compositing..it hardly adds anything to functionality..its just a lot of eyecandy | 11:13 |
| fran2 | thinkwiki.org... thx | 11:13 |
| haxt | crdlb: could you tell me the differences between the os ati drivers and fglrx? | 11:13 |
| haxt | if you know | 11:13 |
| atmanam | haxt: os ati drivers->releases by ati | 11:14 |
| crdlb | haxt: "ati" is the open source driver developed by the community and fglrx is ATI (now AMD)'s proprietary blob | 11:14 |
| atmanam | crdlb: is'nt that the other way round..but i'm not sure myself | 11:14 |
| haxt | crdlb: functionality wise, ati doesn't have ogl and fglrx does--is that about it? | 11:15 |
| crdlb | haxt: they both support OpenGL | 11:15 |
| recon69 | crdlb: I have all the xorg-driver-fglrx drivers installed | 11:15 |
| crdlb | recon69: but do you have xorg-driver-fglrx-dev installed? | 11:15 |
| haxt | crdlb: is there a way to test ogl support? | 11:15 |
| recon69 | glxinfo I think | 11:16 |
| crdlb | haxt: 'glxinfo | grep direct' is a primative method | 11:16 |
| crdlb | haxt: the problem is that the open source driver's 3d support on r300 and up (you have an rv350) was reverse-engineered | 11:16 |
| crdlb | but now ATI has released specs, so the major problems should be fixed | 11:17 |
| haxt | I don't think I even have an RV350, I think that's wrong. I think I have an RV360--in fact I'm sure of it. I have a Sapphire ATI Radeon 9600xt, not 9600 plain | 11:17 |
| carstendod1 | hi, i would like to program small programs with code::blocks, i already got it installed, but it tells me now that g++ is missing, how can I add g++? | 11:17 |

| Starnestommy | carstendod1: install build-essential and g++ with the package manager | 11:18 |
| atmanam | haxt: do lspci|grep VGA | 11:18 |
| recon69 | my glxinfo http://rafb.net/p/TOfPif45.html | 11:18 |
| crdlb | haxt: yep, it's just a label used to match the device section to the screen section | 11:18 |
| carstendod1 | Starnestommy: Thank you! | 11:18 |
| atmanam | carstendodl: sudo apt-get install build-essential | 11:19 |

| perfector | can i lock my screen without the screensaver?? | 11:32 |
| bullgard4 | studente: If it boots and you come to a working operating system, then you can try once again to upgrade. | 11:32 |
| chmac | perfector: Click on the power icon (top left of clock), then lock screen | 11:32 |
| haxt | chmac: run it as root? | 11:32 |
| jaffarkelshac | some links in firefox has logged of me ubuntu on several ocassions and now when open firefox, it covers both panels. but not in fullscreen mode. i only get out of by going fullscreen and out. | 11:33 |
| perfector | most of these screensavers consume a lot of cpu resources...... thats the reason i asked.. | 11:33 |
| chmac | haxt: Doing that, it's copying from a fedora home dir, but I can't see why that would matter | 11:33 |
| perfector | chmac: no actually i use a windowmanager.. | 11:33 |
| studente | i'll try | 11:33 |
| jatt | perfector: you will not using your PC while the screensaver is on, why do you need the CPU power for? | 11:33 |
| chmac | perfector: What does that mean? | 11:33 |
| haxt | chmac: well if the files are hidden root might be able to copy them i would think anyways. | 11:33 |
| KyHilBly56 | when i booted up into the live cd for 8.04 i got an error "There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon" | 11:34 |

| ubuntu_ | excuse me but the chanel ubuntu italien? | 11:35 |
| chmac | perfector: You said "no actually i use a windowmanager.." - I'm not sure what you mean | 11:35 |
| haxt | chmac: cp --recursive /olddir/.[a-zA-Z0-9]* /newdir | 11:35 |
| haxt | chmac: that should work | 11:35 |
| perfector | chmac: i dont use gnome.. | 11:35 |
| chmac | ubuntu_: #ubuntu-it I think :) | 11:35 |
| ubuntu_ | thank's ;) | 11:35 |
| chmac | perfector: Which window manager do you use? | 11:36 |
| perfector | chmac: fluxbox | 11:36 |

| chmac | haxt: Do you know why /* doesn't include . files? It does on Fedora... | 11:36 |
| * dougsko highfives perfector | 11:36 | |
| haxt | chmac: you need that extra wildcard i put in there | 11:36 |
| perfector | dougsko: i didnt get what u meant? like what wud the entire command be.. | 11:36 |
| studente | But that's hardy | 11:37 |
| haxt | chmac: that [a-zA-Z0-9] | 11:37 |
| dougsko | perfector: nice -19 <screensaver> | 11:37 |
| perfector | dougsko: example when i use xscreensaver or xlock?? | 11:37 |
| studente | how can I upgrade than? | 11:37 |
| jaffarkelshac | where can i find commands available for xchat | 11:37 |
| chmac | haxt: I get what that does, but I'm not sure why the behaviour is different, that's my question | 11:37 |
| dougsko | perfector: nice -19 xlock | 11:37 |
| chmac | jaffarkelshac: /help | 11:37 |
| haxt | chmac: i think that's why fedora is fedora, and ubuntu is debian sid lol | 11:37 |
| perfector | dougsko: so it wont run the screensaver?? | 11:37 |
| chmac | haxt: lol | 11:37 |
| chmac | haxt: Ok, so debian is just different in that regard | 11:37 |
| perfector | dougsko: oh it just drops the priority u mean?? | 11:37 |
| jaffarkelshac | cheers chmac | 11:37 |
| perfector | dougsko: so everytime i launch the screensaver i have to do it.. | 11:38 |
| tv7497 | i just downloaded and installed supybot but couldnt run it any idea guys ???????? | 11:38 |
| dougsko | perfector: itll run it but with the lowest possible cpu priority. that way, itll minimally impact anything else youre doing | 11:38 |
| haxt | chmac: i suppose. i never encountered the problem but I just remember the extra wildcard. I don't know how fedora works. | 11:38 |
| chmac | haxt: It seems logical to me that /* would include . files, anyway... | 11:38 |
| perfector | dougsko: not very efficient dont u think?? | 11:38 |
| haxt | chmac: well see. you might copy them wtihout knowing. extra space being used | 11:38 |
| perfector | dougsko: isnt any other way to do it using xlock or xscreensaver or anything else? | 11:39 |
| dougsko | perfector: its quite efficient, just alias it in your .bashrc like this --> alias xlock='nice -19 xlock' | 11:39 |
| KyHilBly56 | when i booted up into the live cd for 8.04 i got an error "There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon" | 11:39 |
| haxt | chmac: and in so many uses it might cause problems? who knows. the alphanumeric wildcard is easy to remember | 11:39 |
| chmac | haxt: lol, it's long to type though, and "to avoid accidents" doesn't sound like a reason that would fly with die hard hackers! :) | 11:39 |
| perfector | dougsko: hmmm... worth a try.. actually i was planning to bind it to my fluxbox keys or load the app during startup | 11:40 |
| haxt | chmac: haha die hard hackers use ubuntu? good one | 11:40 |
| dougsko | perfector: i was just gonna say that | 11:40 |
| bazhang | KyHilBly56, did you md5 the iso as well as do the cd integrity check; what speed did you burn the iso at | 11:40 |
| haxt | chmac: when i put on my black hat I run knoppix-std 8) | 11:40 |

| chmac | perfector: Can you choose a screensaver which is just a blank screen? | 11:41 |
| chmac | perfector: That can't use much cpu can it? | 11:41 |
| perfector | dougsko: the best way would be if either of these screen locking apps have an option like that inbuilt.. but i cant seem to find it | 11:41 |
| haxt | bazhang: i dont need you telling me what to do. if anyone is being offtopic it's you talking to me. thanks. | 11:41 |
| KyHilBly56 | so i couldnt set the video res...just 800x600 | 11:41 |
| haxt | gnotghol: ubuntu has required a lot of maintenance for me, atleast every time a new release comes out | 11:42 |
| bazhang | KyHilBly56, get into the grub menu and remove quiet and splash from the kernel you are booting | 11:42 |
| chmac | perfector: You said you're not using Gnome, are you using KDE instead? Fluxbox is a replacement for metacity as I understand it, not for gnome | 11:42 |

| perfector | chmac: hmm.. better option, pretty confusing dont u think? | 11:42 |

| faileas | Is there a working mirror of the seveas repos? the HP one is down and the mirror's package for installing the reops are down | 11:44 |
| haxt | bazhang: oh I get it, it's an azn thing | 11:44 |
| bazhang | KyHilBly56, sure, just hit esc to get into the grub menu then hit e to edit and scroll down and look for quiet and splash and remove them then save and boot and you will be able to see the exact errors | 11:44 |
| chmac | haxt: I didn't try the [a-zA-Z0-9] option, that's way too much typing, just src/ works | 11:45 |
| dougsko | perfector: take advantage of the aliasing too. its one of the biggest time saving things you can do | 11:45 |

| chmac | haxt: I'll bear it in mind, thanks | 11:46 |
| dougsko | KyHilBly56: it is quick. its right after the BIOS screen. when your booting, just hit 'esc' a bunch. you might enter your bios; if you do, just quit it and keep hitting escape and youll get in | 11:47 |
| Ontolog | Does apt-get install linux-686 actually do anything? I saw the comments for this package is that it is a "Dummy package can be removed" and installing it installs something very small less than 50kb | 11:47 |
| dougsko | KyHilBly56: or just pay attention and watch :) | 11:47 |
| KyHilBly56 | lol | 11:47 |
| KyHilBly56 | ok man i'll try | 11:47 |
| psyxac | is it mbr problem? | 11:47 |
| KyHilBly56 | this is on the live cd boot now, not a perm install...does that make a diff | 11:48 |
| dougsko | Ontolog: thats a meta package for one of the more specific kernels. you install that, and itll pick the most recent 686 kernel for you | 11:48 |
| gordonjcp | psyxac: try with the dat disconnected, maybe it's a SCSI problem? | 11:49 |
| dougsko | KyHilBly56: 99% sure it should be the same | 11:49 |
| KyHilBly56 | ok | 11:49 |
| Ontolog | dougsko: ok so by installing linux-686 a new kernel was indeed installed? | 11:49 |

| KyHilBly56 | cuz windows will overwrite the mbr... | 11:52 |
| faileas | KyHilBly56: all that will happen is ubuntu will chainload ntldr, so to boot windows, you select windows from grub, and xp or 2k from ntldr | 11:52 |

| stothepizzle | if i'm doing an install and i want to specify that the boot loader goes to /dev/mmcblk0 how do i do that? | 12:00 |
| Le^stat | hi | 12:00 |
| gordonjcp | psyxac: so what's the dat for? | 12:01 |
| gordonjcp | psyxac: can you install without it to see if that works? | 12:01 |
| mgolisch | stothepizzle: select manual bootloader installation from the setup menu? | 12:01 |
| mgolisch | stothepizzle: asuming you are using the alternatecd | 12:01 |
| stothepizzle | no, i'm not | 12:01 |
| stothepizzle | graphicsal install cd | 12:01 |
| psyxac | it means when i install NOVELL suse it goes upto time zone and when i want to install ubuntu it didnt start | 12:02 |
| whymarkwh | if my exchange server is: rcc.mail(added in host.conf as 192.168.31.1 rcc.mail) then i added this line in postfix(relayhost=rcc.mail) will this foward all mail to my exchange server(rcc.mail)? | 12:02 |
| mgolisch | if the desktop cd doesnt offer that chroot into your installation from the livecd and setup the bootloader manualy using grub-install or the grub console | 12:02 |
| xd_ | hi, I want to compare directory trees, and have listed the differences (either in a file, or onscreen) would prefer a graphical (gnome) interface. I DO NOT want to compare byte by byte. Just size, and timestamp would be enough (its gigabytes of files to compare, that would not work with byte by byte) | 12:02 |
| xd_ | what can I use for that ? | 12:02 |
| psyxac | i tried a lot of ways to install it but it seems it got me | 12:02 |
| stothepizzle | ok mgolisch, are you saying i cant? | 12:02 |
| psyxac | so if u hav ne ideas to give me den plz u r welcome | 12:03 |
| xd_ | I tried mc (it only compares the active directory, and does not dive into structure) | 12:03 |
| stothepizzle | i'm looking at ready to install->advanced and it says Device for bootloader isnstallation: (hd0) | 12:03 |
| xd_ | neither gnome commander does the job, | 12:03 |
| mgolisch | stothepizzle: and you cant change that? | 12:03 |
| stothepizzle | mgolisch i can | 12:03 |
| stothepizzle | i want to know what to change it to | 12:03 |
| xd_ | making md5summs of each dir is to complicated | 12:04 |
| mgolisch | if there is no button or something id try to just skip that part and do the grub install manualy | 12:04 |
| LimCore | xd_: there should be like md5deep command afair | 12:04 |
| stothepizzle | mgolisch i can change (hdo) to anything | 12:04 |
| LimCore | p md5deep - enhanced message digest calculator | 12:04 |
| nadrosima | i need create global variables on py web pages so for search can send me a person simple codes? | 12:04 |
| stothepizzle | should i change it to /dev/mmcblk0? | 12:04 |
| ushimitsudoki | xd_: what if you just ran a diff against the listing of the directories? | 12:05 |
| xd_ | LimCore, but I need to do a Md5 diff than. This takes ages on something like 10GB | 12:05 |
| psyxac | so again everyone just thinkin or shuttin | 12:05 |
| mgolisch | stothepizzle: no not neccerarily, hd0 in grub means the first bios disks, if that mmcblk0 thing is that its ok | 12:05 |
| stothepizzle | ok, so how do i find the (hdX) of my mmc card? | 12:06 |
| wersdaluv | how do I change GDM's resolution? my grub, usplash, and gnome session screens are correct except for my gdm screen | 12:06 |
| erUSUL | xd_: diff ? | 12:06 |
| gordonjcp | stothepizzle: it'll be /dev/sd<something> | 12:06 |
| stothepizzle | gordonjcp it isn't | 12:06 |
| xd_ | ushimitsudoki, thats what I tried, but the usual command I use takes to long. I just want a rough compare. There is no MD5 Compare necessary. I just want to know if a file is missing, or has another timestamp | 12:06 |
| stothepizzle | its /dev/mmblk0 | 12:06 |
| gordonjcp | stothepizzle: at a console type "dmesg", plug the card in, and type "dmesg" again | 12:06 |
| gordonjcp | stothepizzle: see what changes | 12:07 |
| xd_ | erUSUL, yes , but Diff is not something fast, and comes out with a lot of unneccessary things | 12:07 |
| mgolisch | stothepizzle: easiest way is to call the grub binary and try something like setup (hd[tab] and see how grub expands that | 12:07 |
| mgolisch | it will list the partitions and its types | 12:07 |
| ushimitsudoki | xd_ strange. because i would expect ls on two directories and diff to be very quick (i have done this on directories with 25K+ files) | 12:07 |
| xd_ | I want to have a list of the files which are different. I have to do a lot of those operations. Using diff would take hours | 12:07 |
| mgolisch | iam quiet sure you can determine which disk is which by that | 12:08 |
| nadrosima | stothepizzle if u install linux partition alone u need add another system in your boot screen manualy be cause not write MBR registry your other system key | 12:08 |
| === julle__ is now known as julle_ | ||
| xd_ | ushimitsudoki, hmm. Ok you mean ls command. hmm this could work, but still is a lot to type. Looking for something where I can point to, and not type everything. i have to do this on different disks and structures | 12:09 |
| xd_ | maybe some synchronizing utility or so, which gives out different files, and shows in which folders there are differences | 12:10 |
| zubu | bazhang: how can i reinstall hardy from cd. i am using hardy! | 12:12 |
| bazhang | zubu is this a dual boot or only ubuntu | 12:12 |
| faileas | zubu: reboot with it, do a fresh or repair install | 12:13 |
| zubu | bazhang: i am using hardy! from hard disk .i have a hardy beta CD! | 12:13 |
| mgolisch | zubu: why that? | 12:14 |
| bazhang | zubu the beta? you should get the final cd | 12:14 |
| steve_j | hi all is packages.ubuntu.com down for you too? | 12:14 |
| bazhang | steve_j, aye | 12:14 |
| Guillaum3 | greets gents. this happens almost everywhere i install ubuntu | 12:15 |
| LimCore | steve_j: ping goes, but site doesnt load | 12:15 |
| zubu | bazhang:actually my frend had downaloaded it somee time back.thats why. and you kno about my graphics card problem. | 12:15 |
| Guillaum3 | ...via the console i can't see the windows pc's by hostname | 12:15 |
| zubu | bazhang: not to mention the low graphics mode problem | 12:15 |
| bazhang | zubu do you a slow internet connection? if not you should get the final | 12:15 |
| rgs80074 | hello everyone | 12:16 |
| Guillaum3 | so if i go: 'ping windowspc' it tells me the host is not found, but i can access it via smb://windowspc/ | 12:16 |
| rgs80074 | everone still busy with other peoples problems? or does someone have time for me to ask some questions about networking | 12:16 |
| LimCore | !ask | 12:16 |
| ubottu | Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 12:16 |
| mgolisch | Guillaum3: yeah sure, smb uses netbios name resolution not dns | 12:16 |
| bazhang | rgs80074, ask away | 12:16 |
| Guillaum3 | mgolisch: how would i make my console be able to read these windows hostnames? | 12:17 |
| Guillaum3 | LimCore: sorry. | 12:17 |
| pestkam | Guillaum3: becose windows firewall is on... turn of, or reconfigure | 12:17 |
| steve_j | LimCore presumably that's also why i can't install openssh server from security.ubuntu.com.... too? | 12:17 |
| Guillaum3 | pestkam: firewalls are not the case | 12:17 |
| dougsko | Guillaum3: yeah it sounds like something is filtering icmp packets...either your router or windows fw (most likely) | 12:17 |
| Guillaum3 | dougsko: we have another ubuntu machine which is able to see these hostnames like such on the same network | 12:18 |
| rgs80074 | i can't seem to get networking to work | 12:18 |
| pestkam | Guillaum3: you windows domain? | 12:18 |
| dougsko | Guillaum3: well then its not your router | 12:18 |
| zubu | bazhang:i have descent speed. but i am not in the mood to download it.what would you suggest? after all that low gaphics problem i was considering downgrading to Gusty since it was working fine!(it even used to show the nvidia wallpaper at startup) | 12:18 |
| dougsko | Guillaum3: you can nmap -P0 -p135 <host> to check if its up | 12:18 |
| pestkam | Guillaum3: Are you use windows domain? | 12:18 |
| bazhang | rgs80074, this is wireless? what chipset | 12:18 |
| rgs80074 | i have internet access but i can't access the other pc's on the network | 12:19 |
| hanzahar | hey | 12:19 |
| Guillaum3 | pestkam: i do not havea 'domain' field enetered | 12:19 |
| zubu | bazhang: but my frend had this beta cd. soo i thought i would try hardy again!! | 12:19 |
| rgs80074 | in the tools it says some error when i try to configure my network card | 12:19 |
| Amanda18 | how much HD space does ubuntu take once installed ? | 12:19 |
| mgolisch | Guillaum3,pestkam : the problem is samba does name resolution using netbios, one of the samba/windows hosts is the master browser, it holds a list of all smb servers their name and ips the name entered in naitulus is resolved using the masterbrowser pc or using boradcast request, but ping uses dns so it will only work if the hosts are added to the local hosts file or a localdns server is setup | 12:19 |
| hanzahar | hi everyone how is everything | 12:19 |
| bazhang | rgs80074, the other pc's are windows or linux | 12:19 |
| rgs80074 | i am using the new version of ubuntu that i just donwloaded and is allowing me to dual boot | 12:20 |
| dougsko | Guillaum3: try just mounting the share with mount: mount //host/share /mountpoint -o username=<user>,password=<pass> | 12:20 |
| rgs80074 | for now they are all windows pc's | 12:20 |
| bazhang | zubu, well going that route you will a ton of updates | 12:20 |
| rgs80074 | fi this goes well though i might change them too | 12:20 |
| Guillaum3 | mgolisch: thanks for your input | 12:20 |
| bazhang | rgs80074, you should consider samba then | 12:20 |
| hwdyki | how do i auto reconfigure the x serve? | 12:20 |
| rgs80074 | samba? forgive me as i am new to linux | 12:20 |
| dougsko | Guillaum3: you know you need an account on the windows machine with the same username/pass as the unix box, right? | 12:21 |
| gnomefreak | hwdyki: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg | 12:21 |
| bazhang | rgs80074, let me get you a link | 12:21 |
| rgs80074 | tried fedora a while back but ran into all sorts of problems, witht he video card, networking, etc | 12:21 |
| _vampiro_ | Olà A Tutti i Presenti Di #ubuntu | 12:21 |
| bazhang | !samba | rgs80074 | 12:21 |
| ubottu | rgs80074: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT. | 12:21 |
| zubu | bazhang: how about downgrading to GUsty! and then download the updates slowly. | 12:21 |
| bazhang | !it | _vampiro_ | 12:21 |
| ubottu | _vampiro_: Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! | 12:21 |
| Guillaum3 | dougsko: the windows shares are not password protected | 12:21 |
| rgs80074 | this went just fine except for the networking | 12:21 |
| gnomefreak | _vampiro_: maybe #ubuntu-it would be a better place | 12:21 |
| cgentry72 | no sound in alien arena or open arena can someone help | 12:21 |
| zubu | bazhang: how much better is hardy anywez! | 12:21 |
| dougsko | Guillaum3: im not sure if that matters | 12:21 |
| Air_F | Hi :-) | 12:21 |
| bazhang | zubu you want to install gutsy and then update to hardy that way? that is a possibility too | 12:21 |
| dougsko | Guillaum3: its something to keep in mind if nothing else works | 12:22 |
| Guillaum3 | dougsko: thanks | 12:22 |
| bazhang | zubu, did you have troubles with graphics in gutsy? | 12:22 |
| Guillaum3 | i had a file i edited once. i switched the words "DNS" and something else around | 12:22 |
| Air_F | is there any way i can find a good book for ubuntu? or any documentations? thanks | 12:22 |
| hwdyki | gnomefreak: that doesn't detect my vid card drivers | 12:22 |
| rgs80074 | thanks, i'll have to write/save this and reboot to ubuntu later | 12:22 |
| gnomefreak | hwdyki: you asked how to reconfigure it and yes it does | 12:22 |
| gnomefreak | hwdyki: now lets try with what are you trying to do | 12:23 |
| McNult1 | is http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper-backports/ down? | 12:23 |
| frojnd | please someone. My kernel modul for sound is loaded. How do I know? Ive tryed lsmod | grep snd_intel8x0 and the output is http://pastebin.ca/1022640 i've installed alsa-base and alsa-oss but I still can't hear any sound from headphones. (headphones are working - double cheked) Any ideas why I can't get any sound ? | 12:23 |
| rgs80074 | also i used the version that starst the installation inside of windows, is there a way to increase the default size of the installation folder? i stuck with the default of 15gigs | 12:23 |
| pentagon | McNult1: packages.ubuntu.com is down right now | 12:23 |
| hwdyki | setup drivers for my card. | 12:23 |
| gnomefreak | hwdyki: hardy? | 12:23 |
| hwdyki | yes | 12:23 |
| gnomefreak | hwdyki: what card? | 12:23 |
| bazhang | rgs80074, ah wubi; then that is a different story | 12:23 |
| McNult1 | damn - oh well | 12:23 |
| hwdyki | GeForce FX 5200 | 12:23 |
| cgentry72 | no sound in alien arena or open arena can someone help | 12:23 |
| zubu | bazhang: no none at all. in the beginning it just downlaoded the graphic driver on its own and then evrything was fine.it even used to show the nvidia wallpaper before the login screen.!! | 12:24 |
| gnomefreak | hwdyki: go to system > administration > hardware drivers | 12:24 |
| bazhang | zubu, then you may want to stick with gutsy if that worked best for you; I have seen the troubles you have had with hardy the last two days | 12:24 |
| hwdyki | gnomefreak: i don't have a gui. | 12:25 |
| gnomefreak | hwdyki: that is easiest way, other wise you install nvidia-glx-new and change the drivers by editing the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file by hand | 12:25 |
| gnomefreak | hwdyki: you can use safe mode | 12:25 |
| bazhang | samba with wubi? is that possible? | 12:25 |
| Air_F | hmmz, any one? ;) | 12:25 |
| Dr_willis | bazhang, i dont see why not. | 12:25 |
| bazhang | thanks Dr_willis :) | 12:26 |
| Guillaum3 | mgolisch: how do i check if a localdns server is up, can i specify him myself? | 12:26 |
| rgs80074 | wubi? whats that? | 12:26 |
| Dr_willis | bazhang, once wubi boots the linux system. its using all the other hardware - its just running from some sort of filesystem in a file. I thought | 12:26 |
| zubu | bazhang: yeah thanks a lot for being there.i had been a bit sluggish in the beginning.copyin entire lines of code and all that.... | 12:26 |
| gnomefreak | hwdyki: hardy should throw you in a crappy GUI if your card isnt configured since everyone should get a GUI after install. if you edit the file by hand remember to make a backup before changing anything | 12:26 |
| Dr_willis | !wubi | 12:26 |
| ubottu | Wubi is an Ubuntu installer for Windows users that allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu like a Windows application, in a simple and safe way. http://wubi-installer.org/support.php for troubleshooting. Please file bugs at http://launchpad.net/wubi/+filebug. | 12:26 |
| mgolisch | Guillaum3: that depends or your network | 12:26 |
| zubu | bazhang: so how can i downgrade!! | 12:26 |
| Guillaum3 | mgolisch: what if the router is the localdns? | 12:26 |
| bazhang | zubu, why not stick with gutsy for now | 12:26 |
| Guillaum3 | mgolisch: then dhcp should handle all of that | 12:27 |
| bazhang | zubu you need to get gutsy install disk and reinstall | 12:27 |
| pentagon | Air_F: https://help.ubuntu.com/ has some good general documentation. I don't learn well from books, so I don't know of any good ones. | 12:27 |
| gnomefreak | hwdyki: if you isntall the drivers i said you should than beable to use sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and change the driver to nvidia and you should than have gui\ | 12:27 |
| shellclear | how to cups remote ??? | 12:27 |
| zubu | bazhang yeah i have that! thans to shipit | 12:27 |
| DellGuy | anyone have trouble with gnome and microphones ? | 12:27 |
| Air_F | pentagon: thanks. lemme have a look. | 12:27 |
| bazhang | zubu, and if you have any issues you can come here and ask :) | 12:27 |
| zubu | bazhang: thanks a lot! you guys a very helpful! | 12:28 |
| hwdyki | i have the nvidia drivers. | 12:28 |
| bazhang | zubu :) | 12:28 |
| nadrosima | ***dont forget if u have amd proccessor (64bit) ur driver cant read kernel name and versiyon 1st open kernel name later install driver | 12:29 |
| gnomefreak | Air_F: wiki.ubuntu.com is good community docs. The Official Ubuntu Book is a good book | 12:29 |
| bazhang | Air_F, ubuntuguide.org is good; as far as books (ie paperback) there is one or two really good ones | 12:29 |
| dougsko | gnomefreak: is the official book Free? | 12:29 |
| Le^stat | i prefer linux cbt's | 12:29 |
| DellGuy | can anyone tell me if switching to a KDE desktop is going to mess up my compiz and other settings ? | 12:29 |
| gnomefreak | hwdyki: than you nee dto set it up in xorg.conf file either with sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg or by hand | 12:29 |
| gnomefreak | dougsko: no | 12:29 |
| zubu | bahang: so how can i downgrade to gusty! reboot> insert the cd.? | 12:29 |
| bazhang | zubu right | 12:30 |
| phimic | hello all someone in who uses virtual box 1.6. in ubuntu? | 12:30 |
| frojnd | All i'm asking here is a little tip... so I could know what else to try and test why I can't get any sound. please | 12:30 |
| gnomefreak | zubu: you need to reinstall for gutsy as downgrading will cause many issues | 12:30 |
| Air_F | bazhang: :) good site too | 12:30 |
| bazhang | phimic, what is the issue | 12:30 |
| gnomefreak | s/will/can | 12:30 |
| bazhang | Air_F, :) | 12:30 |
| dougsko | gnomefreak: thats too bad...ubuntu needs a handbook as complete and available as freebsd's | 12:30 |
| nadrosima | zubu use adept manager and go full upgrade | 12:30 |
| Le^stat | vmware server is better thank virtual box | 12:30 |
| Le^stat | in my opinion | 12:30 |
| rgs80074 | thansks for the help everyone | 12:30 |
| phimic | bazhang: i cannot compile it with fakeroot debian/rules binary | 12:30 |
| db92 | hi i just downloaded 8.04 and when i was trying to install, the partitioner gave me an error that it cant resize my partition or something like that, any ideas? i was trying to split the partition to keep few gigs as swap and the rest as / | 12:30 |
| rgs80074 | in a bit i'll reboot to linux adn see if i can get it to work | 12:31 |
| phimic | i get the error http://pastebin.com/mb569266 | 12:31 |
| bazhang | phimic, what are you trying to compile | 12:31 |
| zhengjia | I am a chinese student ,I am English is poor. I need a fraind to help me study English ,and I can use chinese talk whit him. | 12:31 |
| rgs80074 | i just foudn ti odd that i had internet access just not access to the toher pc's on the network, my issue with fedora a while ago was with no access period | 12:31 |
| Air_F | thanks for the help :). see you soon guys. | 12:31 |
| gnomefreak | phimic: you should really be asking that in a differnet channel but it looks like you are missing depends | 12:32 |
| bazhang | zhengjia, there may be sites for that but this is ubuntu OS support | 12:32 |
| phimic | bazhang: virtual box 1.6 | 12:32 |
| nadrosima | phimic why use fakeeroot ? | 12:32 |
| dougsko | zhengjia: come over to #ubuntu-offtopic and chat with us | 12:32 |
| phimic | gnomefreak: i already asked in #vbox | 12:32 |
| gnomefreak | phimic: we dont really support building of apps in this channel due to the amount of users in here | 12:32 |
| bazhang | phimic, why that version? you can get in repos or the package from their site | 12:32 |
| gnomefreak | phimic: try #ubuntu-offtopic | 12:32 |
| faileas | phimic: what're you having issues with, specifically? | 12:32 |
| immesys | hey, I'm trying to make a share in samba that people can write to but cannot delete files. I don't know where to begin... any idea? | 12:32 |
| gnomefreak | faileas: hes missing a dep ion building an app | 12:32 |
| gnomefreak | most likely its libstdc++6 or 5 -dev package | 12:33 |
| gnomefreak | depending on what the app needs | 12:33 |
| nadrosima | immesys this file not your u cant delete first take this file | 12:33 |
| rgs80074 | since i am here | 12:34 |
| immesys | nadrosima: sorry? | 12:34 |
| rgs80074 | anyone know where i can find good sidebar gadgets for ubuntu | 12:34 |
| nadrosima | chmod change owner! | 12:34 |
| rgs80074 | or widgets, screenlets or whatever they are called | 12:34 |
| dougsko | phimic: install either libstdc++-dev or libstdc++6-dev and you should be good. whenever you get an error like that, you usually need the "dev" package of what it errored out on to make it work | 12:34 |
| immesys | nadrosima: but if the files are created by samba guest, then all clients are the same owner... | 12:34 |
| immesys | nadrosima: aah, you mean make samba change it to a different owner on write? | 12:35 |
| gnomefreak | it needs a 5 or 6 there isnt one with just ++ | 12:35 |
| phimic | dougsko: thank i will try | 12:35 |
| nadrosima | are u not guest this is guest file so user file only a security | 12:35 |
| Dr_willis | rgs80074, 'desklets' 'gdesklets' 'opera has some also' - and proberly a dozen other ways to get differnt widgets. | 12:35 |
| zhengjia | what is come over ? | 12:35 |
| dougsko | gnomefreak: yeah i guess thats dummy pkg | 12:35 |
| sam_ | Hey guys, am I allowed to ask for help here? :P | 12:36 |
| gnomefreak | dougsko: it is | 12:36 |
| immesys | nadrosima: I'll try that, thanks | 12:36 |
| Pici | sam_: So long as its Ubuntu related, sure. | 12:36 |
| pentagon | zhengjia: "come over" means "visit" or "go to" | 12:36 |
| Tm_T | sam_: sure, if its about ubuntu ;) | 12:36 |
| gnomefreak | dougsko: firefox depends on it and i forget it sometimes so i know the error well | 12:36 |
| thomas_ | hi to everyone | 12:36 |
| Pici | zhengjia: /join #ubuntu-offtopic | 12:36 |
| dougsko | phimic: you get the point though right? | 12:36 |
| faileas | sam_: no you arn't, but you'll ask anyway ;p | 12:36 |
| gnomefreak | rgs80074: also screenlets is in repos | 12:36 |
| dougsko | gnomefreak: haha good ol' ff | 12:36 |
| sam_ | hehehe, Thanks guys ;) | 12:36 |
| gnomefreak | dougsko: oh yeah ;) | 12:36 |
| thomas_ | is someone able to know why i cant put any letters in the wow account on wine | 12:37 |
| * gnomefreak goes back to work | 12:37 | |
| rgs80074 | repos, is there a lot of those, i read somewhere about adding multiverse and universe | 12:37 |
| sam_ | ok, so, I just installed wine, and the performance is pretty bad (10fps looking at a wall in CSS), so I'm thinking of running wine on its on Xserver, but there really arent any guides that teach noobs how to do it ;) | 12:37 |
| rgs80074 | but it hink those already are in the list of repos for the installation | 12:37 |
| thomas_ | it freezes | 12:37 |
| gnomefreak | !universe | rgs80074 | 12:37 |
| ubottu | rgs80074: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories | 12:37 |
| gnomefreak | ok now to work | 12:37 |
| Pici | thomas_: Probably best to ask that in #winehq, we dont really support issues with running applications in Wine, only getting Wine installed :) | 12:37 |
| sam_ | ahh ok :P | 12:37 |
| sam_ | thanks ;) | 12:37 |
| phimic | dougsko: yes i installed both but still no luck | 12:37 |
| dougsko | phimic: you get a different error this time? | 12:38 |
| thomas_ | how do i get there | 12:38 |
| garrett__ | I'm installing Ubuntu, but whenever X starts, the display's massively corrupt (looks like a piece of old ANSI art). I'm installing on my laptop with a broken LCD, so I've got an external LCD hooked up. Is this the issue? Display works fine until X starts. | 12:38 |
| === SO_SWEET is now known as Zi | ||
| thomas_ | i am new | 12:38 |
| phimic | dougsko: the same | 12:38 |
| pentagon | thomas_: there's basic instructions on setting up WoW under Ubuntu at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WorldofWarcraft | 12:38 |
| Pici | thomas_: type:/join #winehq | 12:38 |
| thomas_ | ok | 12:38 |
| gnomefreak | phimic: is this package in our repos? | 12:38 |
| thomas_ | thanks | 12:38 |
| db92 | hi i just downloaded 8.04 and when i was trying to install, the partitioner gave me an error that it cant resize my partition or something like that, any ideas? i was trying to split the partition to keep few gigs as swap and the rest as / | 12:38 |
| garrett__ | also, once it does start, I have limited use of the command line. Specifically, the terminal doesn't scroll up to accomodate text. Typing "clear" doesn't do anything. I also don't seem to be able to navigate a file using vim or nano. | 12:38 |
| thomas_ | type:/join #winehq | 12:38 |
| zChris | garrett__:holt shift and press pgup | 12:39 |
| phimic | gnomefreak: no i try to build it with fakeroot debian/rules binary | 12:39 |
| gnomefreak | phimic: we have vnc in repos so just sudo apt-get build-deps vnc | 12:39 |
| dougsko | phimic: there is a fakeroot package too | 12:39 |
| gnomefreak | that should pull all deps in or look in control file for the deps | 12:39 |
| phimic | gnomefreak: vbox 1.6? | 12:39 |
| garrett__ | zChris: it's more like.. once text scrolls down, I can't get the cursor back. Also, the blinking cursor position marker never leaves the top left corner of the screen--so something's mucked with the termcap, I think. | 12:39 |
| gnomefreak | phimic: if you have a debian/rules file you will have a debian/control file with the list of build-deps | 12:40 |
| zChris | garrett__: tried changing tty with alt fx ? | 12:40 |
| garrett__ | zChris: typing "clear" doesn't do anything, but sometimes alt+f8 to get back to my corrupt X and then flipping back to the console restores it | 12:40 |
| garrett__ | zChris: but then it works until text scrolls to the bottom of the screen. | 12:40 |
| KazaLite | hi all....im running ubuntu on vmware and i can browse internet. ip of my ubuntu is 192.168.1.151 and of windows host is 192.168.1.123. When i try to connect to ubuntu on vmware using putty i get error message "network error: connection refused". what sort of settings/configurations i need to fix this thing? | 12:41 |
| garrett__ | zChris: also, i it's impossible to use vim/nano to edit my xconf to continue with the install process. | 12:41 |
| zChris | garrett__:why ? | 12:41 |
| gnomefreak | phimic: most of time a point release doesnt change build-deps much. best place to ask this would be in #ubuntu-motu | 12:41 |
| dougsko | phimic: you might want to just try installing some of the other libstdc++ dev packages. its just looking for a specific version. one of the ones available should be right | 12:41 |
| Dr_willis | garrett__, i recall the 'reset' command in the console at times helped me. - sounds like a framebuffer issue? disable the framebuffer perhaps? | 12:41 |
| phimic | dougsko: ok thanks i will try | 12:41 |
| garrett__ | zChris: because it seems like the tty keeps losing input. | 12:41 |
| gnomefreak | phimic: there are alot of modulesfor it | 12:42 |
| garrett__ | zChris: i.e: i'll type esc and :q to quit vim, but it doesn't do anything. | 12:42 |
| zChris | garrett__: did you try changing tty as i suggested? | 12:42 |
| Dr_willis | KazaLite, lets cover the basics.. You did install the ssh server under ubuntu? | 12:42 |
| nadrosima | kazalite open first port if u connect with ur linux look servive port maybe closed | 12:42 |
| garrett__ | zChris: if I switch tty's, then it'll work until the screen fills again. | 12:42 |
| motti | How can I resize my login screen, i cant see all the buttons as the resolution seems to be at the wrong setting. | 12:42 |
| garrett__ | zChris: yeah, i did. i have to switch back into X then back to a tty | 12:42 |
| gnomefreak | phimic: i have 0.1.9.4 from repos | 12:42 |
| garrett__ | zChris: the point is, it's impossible to edit any files to continue on with the install process. | 12:42 |
| gnomefreak | !info vbox3 hardy | 12:42 |
| ubottu | vbox3 (source: vbox3): voice response system for isdn4linux. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.1.9.4 (hardy), package size 34 kB, installed size 228 kB | 12:42 |
| zChris | garrett__: weird, tried killing x? | 12:42 |
| gnomefreak | and same for hardy | 12:43 |
| garrett__ | zChris: yeah | 12:43 |
| KazaLite | Dr_willis: no:(.....what other packages i may need to install? | 12:43 |
| zChris | garrett__: one thing you can try is to install ssh and edit them from another comp | 12:43 |
| gnomefreak | phimic: save you some headaches if you just install it since its newer than 1.6 | 12:43 |
| garrett__ | zChris: it goes from ANSI-looking color blocks to a pale blue with black lines--looks about 640x480 | 12:43 |
| * gnomefreak back to work for real this time | 12:43 | |
| Dr_willis | KazaLite, look for the ssh server in the repos. Ubuntu dosent install any services by default normally. Depemnds on what you want to do. | 12:43 |
| pentagon | KazaLite: sudo apt-get install openssh-server | 12:43 |
| rgs80074 | thanks guys again, hopefully if things go right hwen i get back on i'll report i have network access | 12:43 |
| rgs80074 | later | 12:43 |
| Amanda18 | how would i download a file from a link from the command prompt | 12:43 |
| garrett__ | zChris: i could do that, unfortunately I've got a 4318 chipset on my network card, so i can't do that :P | 12:43 |
| ^TaRaKsIaS | hey y'all | 12:43 |
| Dr_willis | Amanda18, wget command is handy | 12:44 |
| zChris | garrett__: thats not supported? | 12:44 |
| pentagon | Amanda18: wget linkGoesHere | 12:44 |
| Amanda18 | Dr_willis: is there a dir where it downloads it to? | 12:44 |
| zChris | garrett__: dont you have ethernet? | 12:44 |
| nadrosima | wget http://................ download /home/userdir/ | 12:44 |
| garrett__ | zChris: not natively. i've got the drivers on a partition for it, but I don't think i can get it loaded up entirely. | 12:44 |
| Dr_willis | Amanda18, whever you tell it to. :) linux works that way a lot... | 12:44 |
| garrett__ | zChris: i do, but the router's in my neighbor's apartment ;P | 12:44 |
| zubu | bazhang: can you come on the offtopic channel | 12:45 |
| pentagon | Amanda18: if you don't specify one, it downloads it to whichever directory you're in | 12:45 |
| garrett__ | zChris: and my router won't do bridging mode | 12:45 |
| Amanda18 | ohhh | 12:45 |
| zChris | garrett__: but the computer you are on now? is that one in the same room as your lappy? | 12:45 |
| garrett__ | zChris: i'm on my laptop, booted into windows. | 12:45 |
| Assid | Dr_willis: !!! wassup | 12:45 |
| garrett__ | zChris: haven't been able to continue with the install process | 12:45 |
| Dr_willis | Assid, Gas prices are up. :) | 12:45 |
| zChris | garrett__: so you dont have 2 comps ? | 12:45 |
| Assid | sweet.. so you changed to 2 horse power yet ? | 12:46 |
| garrett__ | I'm trying to determine if it's failing due to someting goofy in the 8.04 configuration for the geforce440go, or if it's because i'm using an external lcd panel (the CLF inverter in my laptop's display flaked out) | 12:46 |
| garrett__ | zChris: unfortunately, on. | 12:46 |
| Dr_willis | Assid, I drive 10 mile a day to/from work. :) i could use a moped. | 12:46 |
| KazaLite | cool...... ssh-server installed:D now whats the next task? | 12:46 |
| garrett__ | zChris: unfortunately, no. i gave my desktop to a friend awhile ago. | 12:46 |
| Assid | you should | 12:46 |
| chmac | Does Ubuntu have a tool that will allow me to *safely* resize an ex3 partition to create a new 10gb partition on the disk? | 12:46 |
| Assid | or even a baby ninja | 12:46 |
| Dr_willis | KazaLite, err.. connect with the ssh client you like. :) | 12:46 |
| zChris | garrett__: hmm, so the problem appears only when the tty gets filed ? | 12:46 |
| garrett__ | zChris: yeah | 12:46 |
| pentagon | KazaLite: it starts the server automatically when you install it and on subsequent restarts | 12:46 |
| Pici | Dr_willis, Assid: -offtopic if you're going to continue the chatting, please ;) | 12:47 |
| zChris | garrett__: and this monitor is a external one? | 12:47 |
| Assid | Pici: ! hows you | 12:47 |
| KazaLite | wooohooooo............i works:D.....love you guys.....GOD bless you ppl:) | 12:47 |
| Assid | hrmm.. people dont remember me | 12:47 |
| pentagon | KazaLite: if you need to configure it, the config file is /etc/ssh/sshd_config | 12:47 |
| Dr_willis | Pici, :) What if my Moped runs Linux! :) heh. | 12:47 |
| Assid | hahaha | 12:47 |
| garrett__ | zChris: the cursor-positioning just seemed really janky. if i type "ls", the, the cursor overwrites the last line of output, if i remember correctly. | 12:47 |
| peterretief | why are my fonts so clunky with ff3? | 12:48 |
| garrett__ | zChris: yea, i'm using the external one now--works fine in windows, and it works fine up until X starts. | 12:48 |
| garrett__ | zChris: it's just some dell 17" panel | 12:48 |
| zChris | garrett__: well i cant really help ya since its too weird problem ;) | 12:48 |
| garrett__ | zChris: but i doubt its a modeline issue, as the panel would just shutoff if it was out of range or someting | 12:48 |
| zChris | garrett__: try another live cd without x and see if the problem persists | 12:48 |
| garrett__ | zChris: indeed ;P | 12:48 |
| KazaLite | cool | 12:48 |

| bazhang | sybariten, the keyring is what you need to import (gpg) to ensure security of that repo | 12:53 |
| sybariten | bazhang: so is there some kind of encryption involved somewhere= | 12:53 |
| sybariten | ? | 12:53 |

| zgmf-x20a | > hey all, trying to install rails, why doesnt this command work? "sudo gem install rails -v 1.2.3 --include-dependencies" ?? | 13:14 |
| bazhang | tobydeh, how many partitions? ie which one is the server system on | 13:15 |
| wgrant | tobydeh: What has changed since you upgraded? | 13:16 |
| tobydeh | bazhang: see http://pastebin.com/d5b2b31d4 | 13:16 |
| dejx | wgrant thanks again | 13:16 |
| wgrant | dejx: np | 13:16 |
| wgrant | tobydeh: What's the problem? | 13:17 |
| bazhang | tobydeh, you want to merge a mounted partition? | 13:17 |
| wgrant | tobydeh: That all looks fine. | 13:17 |
| rt_ | Please, let me know an ubuntu-TV-program? | 13:17 |
| tobydeh | no, im runing out of space on /var | 13:17 |
| crdlb | tobydeh: you certainly cannot modify a partition without unmounting it | 13:17 |
| tobydeh | thats where all mysql data is and all apache lgos are | 13:17 |
| tobydeh | i dont want all the partitions i want to merge evertyihg into sda1 | 13:18 |
| crdlb | tobydeh: and it's very dangerous to modify partitions on a hard drive with any mounted partitions | 13:18 |
| wgrant | tobydeh: 33% full == running out? | 13:18 |
| bazhang | tobydeh, which is root | 13:18 |
| tobydeh | it wont take long | 13:18 |
| wersdaluv | would you recommend funpidgin over pidgin? why? | 13:18 |
| wgrant | tobydeh: You won't be able to easily do that without taking everything offline. | 13:18 |
| Pici | !tv > rt_ (Please see the private messsage from ubottu) | 13:18 |
| wgrant | tobydeh: How did it ever survive before, then? | 13:18 |
| tobydeh | i paid for 400 gigs i want them!! i only have 4 | 13:18 |
| tobydeh | it only had one partition | 13:18 |
| tobydeh | wellroot and swap | 13:18 |
| wgrant | Um, upgrades don't repartition your system. | 13:18 |
| tobydeh | :( | 13:18 |
| Stareagle | anyone here know about Evergreen OpenILS? | 13:19 |
| tobydeh | wgrant: hw can i assgn more room to /var | 13:19 |
| wgrant | Stareagle: I poked at it a bit a couple of years ago. What do you want to know? | 13:19 |
| crdlb | tobydeh: symlinks? | 13:19 |
| wgrant | tobydeh: By repartitioning your system offline, ideally. | 13:19 |
| wgrant | But if you really have to, symlinks would work. | 13:20 |
| tobydeh | its assigned all of the space to /home which i dont use | 13:20 |
| bazhang | http://www.open-ils.org/downloads.php Stareagle | 13:20 |
| wgrant | tobydeh: `it'? | 13:20 |
| tobydeh | i cant take it offline id loose my job | 13:20 |
| Ontolog | I have a problem with my USB mouse. When I left click once, it seems that 2 left click events are sent one after another. This doesn't happen with the right-click button. | 13:20 |
| jaffarkelshac | i am getting could not initalise/open audio device > no sound ushimitsudoki | 13:20 |
| bazhang | Stareagle, those are vmware prebuilt appliances for that | 13:20 |
| Stareagle | wgrant: I have attemppted an install 4 times now and keep failing at thepoint of running the cgi scripts. I have two main problems, could you help? | 13:20 |
| IdleOne | tobydeh, you will loose your job if it goes down | 13:21 |
| wgrant | Stareagle: I don't remember much about the installation at all - you'd probably be better off asking the OpenILS people. | 13:21 |
| maxb | I'm interested in understanding what the "Preparing restricted drivers" phase of bootup that invokes /bin/ld_static actually does and why it's required, can anyone point me to something to read that mentions this? | 13:21 |
| rt_ | How can I show Television at pc with ubuntu? | 13:21 |
| bazhang | Stareagle, just load the appliance I linked you to | 13:22 |
| adam7 | tobydeh: if you lose your job if the computer stops working, you need to get some backup pronto | 13:22 |
| crdlb | maxb: ubuntu links the restricted driver kernel modules at boot using the unlinked code in /lib/linux-restricted-modules | 13:22 |
| ushimitsudoki | jaffarkelshac: hmm all i can say is that the tutorial there worked for me. I also note that is mentions some rmvb can not be played, and that in some cases you have to manually change the driver selection in mplayer | 13:22 |
| bazhang | http://www.linuxtv.org/ rt | 13:23 |
| wgrant | tobydeh: So you upgraded a mission-critical server, which then spontaneously repartitioned itself? | 13:23 |
| crdlb | maxb: putting the linked .ko kernel modules in /lib/modules/linux-VERSION/volatile | 13:23 |
| tobydeh | i have the data backed up, but i cant afford for it to go offline again, i had it offline to go from debain to ubuntu | 13:23 |
| jaffarkelshac | ushimitsudoki: no worries i run xp on virtual box for the things that do not work on ubuntu, i will use that instead ushimitsudoki | 13:23 |
| wgrant | tobydeh: I thought you said you upgraded from Ubuntu 6.06 LTS to 8.04. | 13:23 |
| maxb | crdlb: I'm a little confused what it's linking to, though, since the ld invocation doesn't list anything but the module's own .o files, as far as I can see | 13:24 |
| tobydeh | wgrant: it was debian i used a 1and1 reinstall image to go to ubuntu 6.06 which must have made the partitions then i upgraded | 13:24 |
| Jokka | Does anyone know where to find pidigd plugins? | 13:24 |
| Stareagle | bazhang: I'll try that. got to get vmware going first though :-) | 13:24 |
| zChris | Jokka: tried on pidgins homepage? | 13:24 |
| wgrant | tobydeh: If one wants a server with appropriate partitions, one shouldn't use a prepared image with completely wrong partition sizes.... | 13:24 |
| bazhang | Stareagle, enable canonical partner repos and sudo apt-get install :) | 13:25 |
| Jokka | zChris, yeah but didnt udnerstnad much ^^ | 13:25 |
| tobydeh | its a 1and1 disk image how was i to know the partitions were stooopid? | 13:25 |
| tobydeh | i just click the "install ubuntu" button | 13:25 |
| DShepherd | Jokka, there's some pidgin plugins in the ubuntu repos. | 13:26 |
| Stareagle | bazhang: enable cononical? Sorry I'm still a bit green. I just ditched winXP and am starting from scratch!! | 13:26 |
| maxb | "Not what you wanted" does not equal "stupid" | 13:26 |
| wgrant | Stareagle: System->Preferences->Software Sources | 13:26 |
| DShepherd | !info pidgin-plugin-pack | Jokka | 13:26 |
| ubottu | jokka: pidgin-plugin-pack (source: purple-plugin-pack): 30 useful plugins for pidgin. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.0.0-1 (hardy), package size 159 kB, installed size 624 kB | 13:26 |
| wgrant | wgrant: Sorry, not Preferences, Administration. | 13:26 |
| bazhang | Stareagle, open up software sources and enable the software repos (software repositories) then refresh and look for vmware-server :) | 13:27 |

| wgrant | frojnd: /usr/bin/gedit on Ubuntu. | 13:27 |
| bazhang | ArrowLance, try from the terminal and pastebin any errors | 13:27 |
| tobydeh | wgrant any ideas? | 13:27 |
| wgrant | ArrowLance: Do you get any errors? | 13:27 |
| Jokka | thx all | 13:28 |
| ironeyex | Hi folks | 13:28 |
| frojnd | wgrant: thanx | 13:28 |
| wgrant | tobydeh: Sorry, but you should have checked this before you cut over a mission-critical system... | 13:28 |
| polz | the entry grub's menu.lst, created after the upgrade, didn't contain an initrd image | 13:28 |
| MrNaz | how do you get the kernel version? | 13:28 |
| Stareagle | bazhang: Thanks, do I do an apt-get install? | 13:28 |
| ArrowLance | ImportError: No module named gtk | 13:28 |
| MrNaz | uname just tells me "Linux" | 13:28 |

| taurusivy | lsb_release | 13:29 |
| bazhang | Stareagle, aye, though with sudo :) | 13:29 |
| wgrant | tobydeh: It's not an easy thing to fix online. Or without reinstalling. | 13:29 |
| taurusivy | uname -r | 13:29 |
| ArrowLance | it worked before, but now it says a module is missing | 13:29 |

| Stareagle | Mmmmm!! apt-get couldn't find a vmware-server package!! | 13:30 |
| Agnostic | Does xubuntu have the live cd option? | 13:30 |

| Agnostic | bazhang, thanks. | 13:30 |
| wgrant | ironeyex: Install the flashplugin-nonfree package. Don't use the download on adobe.com | 13:31 |
| polz | ironeyex: can't you just apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree ? | 13:31 |
| crdlb | maxb: it's linking them together into a single file; apparently it's a legal thing | 13:31 |
| tonsofpcs | I'm trying to connect to my notebook with my phone via bluetooth. Using bluez on the machine, my phone sees it and I get prompted for a passkey, I enter the one set in hcid.config and it shows "connecting..." then fails, with "Unable to connect to [machinename], Try again?", as if it is timing out. Anyone know how I can get this to work? | 13:31 |
| ironeyex | how do i find that? | 13:31 |
| wgrant | ironeyex: Or go to any Flash-using site except YouTube, and Firefox will tell you what to do. | 13:31 |
| autoreiv | Hi all! | 13:31 |
| wgrant | ironeyex: Otherwise, System->Administration->Synaptic Package Manager, and find flashplugin-nonfree. | 13:31 |

| wgrant | ArrowLance: Huh. Install the python-gtk2 package. | 13:33 |
| bazhang | ub4b, oh that is bad | 13:33 |
| ArrowLance | it says it already installed | 13:33 |
| wgrant | Stareagle: You need to find the Canonical, commercial or partner repository. It might be under the `Third-Party Software' tab. | 13:33 |
| wgrant | ArrowLance: Which applications aren't working? | 13:33 |
| autoreiv | Browsing is a bit slow and it hungs up when accessing a webpage with many images (e.g. a search on images.google.com) | 13:33 |

| autoreiv | can anyone help? | 13:34 |
| Stareagle | bazhang: I just did a "sudo apt-get install vmware-server" from the commandline | 13:34 |
| ironeyex | wgrant, flashplugin-nonfree is not on that list | 13:34 |
| ub4b | I already managed to tweak the jeos CD to include one of our own package and to preseed questions, but if I take jeos + extra packages from the normal 8.04 cd, I want to find a way to make sure all dependencies are correct | 13:34 |
| chmac | wgrant: Ok, no worries, thanks | 13:34 |
| ArrowLance | any python applications that use gtk, wgrant | 13:34 |
| wgrant | ironeyex: OK, System->Administration->Software Sources. Enable multiverse. | 13:34 |

| e4rth | without downloading another cd? | 14:41 |
| ikonia | e4rth: no | 14:41 |

| forgief | Hello :) I'm having some problems with the nvidia drivers. I can't seem to set twinview up correctly. Problem: I choose my second monitor and enables it as twinview, then it fires up and everything is nice. When I reboot tho, both monitors light up. However, as two seperate X screens. | 14:42 |
| e4rth | adam7: huh? | 14:42 |
| frojnd | Vlet: What should I choose for receiveing mails ? | 14:42 |
| Vlet | frojnd: well, it looks like they skipped a step; see the title of the second picture: "sending email" | 14:42 |
| Tophat | adam7 - nope. i can't find the printer. and if i type in the IP address of the machine its connected to, it doesn't find it or anything.... :( | 14:42 |
| loc1 | I have two Hardy installations one on my desktop and one on my laptop. I use evolution to check mail on the exchange server. Although the config of the two clients seems to be the same the one on my laptop doesn't offer me to save calendar invitation to my callendar, but instead show a nicely formatted version of the invitation. Any ideas what the problem can be? | 14:42 |
| Vlet | frojnd: pop | 14:42 |
| adam7 | e4rth: run the installer again and see if it works better the second time | 14:42 |
| ikonia | frojnd: use a mail client to connect to your ISP's mail server | 14:42 |
| cjzjm100 | I want to install software by wine,should i put all dll files required into system32 folder? | 14:43 |
| loc1 | The desktop seems to have evolution version 1.2.1 while the laptop has 1.2.1.1 | 14:43 |
| e4rth | ive tried 3 times | 14:43 |
| adam7 | Tophat: hm. I've had very good luck with that printer gui thingy | 14:43 |
| e4rth | its crashed each time | 14:43 |
| Tophat | GMAIL has a wonderful evolution tutorial on the website if you login click setting and prefrences and enable pop and it has a guide there for you. | 14:43 |
| adam7 | e4rth: where does it crash? | 14:43 |
| e4rth | wonderful that something as simple as that | 14:43 |
| forgief | Hello :) I'm having some problems with the nvidia drivers. I can't seem to set twinview up correctly. Problem: I choose my second monitor and enables it as twinview, then it fires up and everything is nice. When I reboot tho, both monitors light up. However, as two seperate X screens. I can't figure out how to make it last so that both screens are in twinview. it resets to seperate x screens when I log in | 14:43 |
| e4rth | and so cricial | 14:43 |
| e4rth | is so buggy -_- | 14:43 |
| ikonia | e4rth: in what way crashing ? | 14:43 |
| frojnd | ikonia: what server type for receiving mails than ? | 14:43 |

| Tophat | adam7 - have you been able to setup a printer onto your ubuntu 8.04 that was physically hooked up to a windows xp box? | 14:44 |

| forgief | m1r: Yupp | 14:45 |
| adam7 | Tophat: just trying that now. I'm not having any luck with samba, but that maybe because I'm behind a router doing NAT from it | 14:45 |
| e4rth | and gets killed by gnome | 14:45 |
| style | ikonia: iknow, but i want to write the output of an app to the clipboard. | 14:45 |

| erUSUL | style: wget url -O - | xclip | 14:45 |
| forgief | m1r: It's weird because when I choose twinview on my second monitor in nvidia-settings and hit apply it works nice. But when I restart my comp, it resets to two seperate x screens | 14:45 |
| adam7 | e4rth: are you sure your CD is good? | 14:45 |

| g0th | ikonia: why do you think that this is a network card issue? | 16:10 |
| tizbac | and if it is off i simply don't get scan results | 16:10 |
| g0th | ikonia: I can browse just fine | 16:10 |
| tizbac | and i think that there isn't any wifi network in the area | 16:10 |
| ikonia | g0th: I don't think it's a network card issue, however, some of the packets transmitted over a samba share can cause a network driver to panic | 16:10 |
| aCCe- | where can i find ubuntu themes??? | 16:10 |
| g0th | ah | 16:10 |

| Tophat | ikonia - dont bother with it. its not worth it. | 16:10 |

| Byron1 | Luna ask and we can try to help | 16:20 |
| Daisuke-Laptop | r2d2: can you be more specific? | 16:20 |
| ikonia | r2d2: it's a news feed isn't it | 16:20 |
| Daisuke-Laptop | sounds like usenet | 16:20 |
| r2d2 | it is a binary downloade | 16:21 |
| r2d2 | r | 16:21 |
| ikonia | r2d2: from usenet though | 16:21 |
| ikonia | r2d2: it's a news feed, use a news rader | 16:21 |
| ikonia | feader | 16:21 |
| ikonia | reader | 16:21 |
| sipior | r2d2: doesn't c3po speak like 6 million languages? maybe ask him? | 16:21 |
| r2d2 | which i guess would come under file sharing in guarddog | 16:21 |
| Daisuke-Laptop | r2d2: no, it would come under usenet | 16:21 |
| r2d2 | c3po? lol whos that | 16:21 |
| Lunarizing | I've got U8, it doesn't seem to want to run samba. Trying to get it on an XP workgroup. Need to change it's workgroup from "workgroup" to something else. Also can't seem to get it to share the folder that I've made to share things on. | 16:22 |

| Byron1 | eclipse are you using restricted driver? | 16:34 |
| ikonia | eclipse23: you also need the legacy package for that card, rather than the current | 16:35 |
| eclipse23 | yes...i tried installing using restricted driver | 16:35 |
| jonaskoelker | question: I hear that .XCompose uses the adobe standardised glyph names. However, "<Multi_key> <O> <O>: circleplus" seems to have no effect. Does the circelus characters exist? I want to produce the equivalent of \oplus, how can I do that? | 16:35 |
| kaze | no it doesn't | 16:36 |
| jonaskoelker | ... because logic is the \lor of the \land ;) | 16:36 |
| eclipse23 | i downloaded the driver for my card. its not listed under legacy. | 16:36 |

| BLACKthroat | can anyone help me get my remote working with mythtv? | 16:37 |
| ikonia | eclipse23: I'd still expect that card to be a bit old to deal with visual effects very well | 16:37 |
| sipior | jonaskoelker: may be that the character doesn't exist in the font you are using | 16:37 |
| eclipse23 | i suspected that the card is too slow for visual effects. but what about the screen output? | 16:38 |

| ikonia | hwilde: where are you putting it | 16:45 |
| hwilde | ikonia, /etc/motd and /etc/motd.tail | 16:46 |
| Pici | hwilde: You just need to edit motd.tail | 16:46 |
| hwilde | Pici, I did that and now it's back to default ubuntu disclaimer! | 16:46 |
| ikonia | hwilde: the bootmisc.sh script updates it on each boot | 16:46 |
| Byron1 | eclipse23 have you looked at screens and graphics? | 16:46 |
| Tyczek | hi, mpd stops playing after X restart, it should play? | 16:47 |
| weix | hey i just 'sudo aptitude install phpmyadmin' and i really dont know where it installed it to how do i find its url on my server because i've tried http://localhost/phpmyadmin and i cant find it. | 16:47 |
| ikonia | weix: what happens if you visit http://localhost | 16:48 |
| jonaskoelker | sipior: ... well, logicalor and logicaland are in `fixed' (the xterm font) | 16:48 |
| sakuramboo | ikonia, all the deps check out, and i only started developing it not too long ago, actually, im forking it because the original developer quit | 16:48 |
| weix | ikonia, hey again, i get an "It Works!" page | 16:48 |
| ikonia | sakuramboo: didn't' say it was a dep, look at the libglade versions | 16:48 |
| eclipse23 | byron1:screens and graphics, i tried that. doesnt seem to work. i mean isnt the primary display suppose to be on my laptop rather than the ext monitor. anyway i tried that and restarted but the screen does not appear in my laptop by default | 16:48 |
| sakuramboo | that is a dep, and yes, 2.0, its good | 16:49 |
| ikonia | weix: ok, so it should be http://localhost/phpmyadmin or http://myphpadmin, whatever the url is | 16:49 |
| weix | ikonia, i can get to my ebox page but that doesent do phpmyadmin | 16:49 |
| ikonia | sakuramboo: the de is met - not "good" | 16:49 |

| hwilde | Pici, ikonia, what about X11 forwarding, it gives me "Error: no display specified" | 16:50 |
| weix | ikonia, i have this happen every once in a while neither url works but apt says its installed (I just threw in localhost rather than the localip kus its simpler) | 16:50 |
| ikonia | sakuramboo: again - look at the version it installs from the repo, look at the version it's linked against, and look at the version you've downloaded and developing against | 16:50 |
| ikonia | must dash | 16:50 |
| Byron1 | eclipse23 Is the secondary screen button accessible? | 16:51 |

| regeya | tactikalnuke: if you can talk some more wireless manufacturers into supporting free software...heh. | 16:56 |
| enigma22 | 3 different files | 16:56 |
| hwilde | !wireless | tactikalnuke | 16:56 |
| ubottu | tactikalnuke: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 16:56 |
| bazhang | enigma22, which files? | 16:56 |
| hwilde | !hardware | tactikalnuke | 16:56 |
| ubottu | tactikalnuke: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport - To help debugging and improving hardware detection, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHardwareDetection | 16:56 |
| weix | hwilde, i did it installed to /var/lib/phpmyadmin/ | 16:56 |
| hwilde | weix, there you go | 16:56 |
| Ganandorf | it keeps rebooting when i try to re install it | 16:56 |
| hwilde | Ganandorf, at the end of hte install you have to take the cd out and it reboots | 16:57 |
| Speedy | Ganandorf, are you booting to the cd? | 16:57 |
| weix | hwilde, but when i type in http://url.com/phpmyadmin it doesent return anything besides a 404 | 16:57 |
| bazhang | Ganandorf, you want to reinstall? boot from the cd not the hdd | 16:57 |
| enigma22 | bazhang, vmware server, rdesktop and seamlessrdp | 16:57 |
| Speedy | weix, phpmyadmin needs to be in the webroot | 16:57 |
| Speedy | like localhost/phpmyadmin | 16:57 |
| bazhang | enigma22, you are matt? | 16:57 |
| hwilde | weix, does http://url.com work ? | 16:57 |
| enigma22 | yes | 16:57 |
| bazhang | enigma22, I just gave you three links | 16:57 |
| weix | hwilde, yep i get the default it works page from apache2 | 16:57 |
| Speedy | hwilde, his problem is that phpmyadmin isnt in the webroot | 16:57 |
| enigma22 | none of them helped really | 16:58 |
| hwilde | weix, put phpmyadmin one level above that | 16:58 |
| weix | Speedy, so should i just copy that file thats in /var/lib/phpmyadmin??? | 16:58 |
| Ganandorf | i boot from cd and choose install then the orange thing moves side to side for a while then the computer reboots and it boots from cd again | 16:58 |
| bazhang | enigma22, what errors did you get when using those links--please specify | 16:58 |
| hwilde | Ganandorf, check cd for defects | 16:58 |
| Ganandorf | its not even running from the live cd when i choose tryout with out any change to system | 16:58 |
| Speedy | weix, i'd copy phpmyadmin into your www folder | 16:58 |
| Ganandorf | ok | 16:58 |
| enigma22 | they didnt tell me how to install files pcked like this | 16:58 |
| hwilde | Speedy, he's going to need to install it the right way or al the paths will be off | 16:58 |
| Speedy | hwilde, not true | 16:59 |
| weix | Speedy, ill give that a try ill just cp it so it leaves a copy in the other dir.. | 16:59 |
| bazhang | enigma22, you need to pay close attention | 16:59 |
| Ganandorf | well the reason i want to reboot is i get this error message now This is a major failure of your software management system. Please check for broken packages with synaptic, check the file permissions and correctness of the file '/etc/apt/sources.list' and reload the software information with: 'sudo apt-get update' and 'sudo apt-get install -f'. | 16:59 |
| Ganandorf | and i don't know what to do to fix it | 16:59 |
| enigma22 | bazhang, i dont understand though | 16:59 |
| hwilde | Ganandorf, redownload the livecd | 16:59 |
| bazhang | Ganandorf, then run the command sudo apt-get install -f | 17:00 |
| dissent | hi, anybody using xmms ? | 17:00 |
| bazhang | audacious is the successor dissent | 17:00 |
| kitche | bazhang: no xmms2 is the sucessor really | 17:00 |
| Speedy | vlc > * | 17:00 |
| kitche | dissent: but if you want xmms-style player get audacious | 17:00 |
| bazhang | kitche, check out audacious I'm sure you will agree | 17:01 |
| dissent | kitche: ok, i'll check it out | 17:01 |
| kitche | bazhang: I've seen audacious so what about it, it's jsut more sloppy code on top of what xmms was already | 17:02 |
| Lunarizing | How do I get into root? | 17:02 |
| bazhang | kitche, ah never mind then | 17:02 |
| Lunarizing | I need to change my smb.conf file and can't without being in root. | 17:02 |
| jonaskoelker | Lunarizing: type sudo bash an the terminal | 17:02 |
| isodude | Lunarizing: visudo /etc/smb.conf | 17:02 |
| Lunarizing | thank you. | 17:02 |
| isodude | or sudo gedit /etc/smb.conf | 17:03 |
| happosade | Is this gonna work at HTPC http://tinyurl.com/6qvs94 | 17:03 |
| jonaskoelker | isodude: isn't visudo only for the sudoers file? | 17:03 |
| bazhang | enigma22, install vmware-server from canonical partner repos; the others I linked to you | 17:03 |
| Svishy | Why do I make broken symbolic link? I do ln -s ~/Directory/A-file | 17:04 |

| Svishy | but it says its broken... | 17:04 |
| techi602 | ikonia: I just hate when people consider Ubuntu as cheaper version of Windows for poor, that drives me crazy | 17:04 |
| bazhang | techi602, he went to #ubuntu-offtopic | 17:05 |
| jonaskoelker | Svishy: what does `file ~/Directory/A-file' say? | 17:05 |
| techi602 | lol :) | 17:05 |

| Jezz | hi | 17:05 |
| AJC_Z0 | What would be the simplest tool for submitting a CD to freedb.org? | 17:06 |
| Jezz | i have installed ubuntu at school but we have a isa server | 17:06 |
| Lunarizing | Ok, still having trouble here. Using the terminal I either get nothing or an empty file. I can find the file, but if I try to edit it in text editor it won't let me save it because I'm not in root. | 17:06 |
| Jezz | i can use firefox trough proxy | 17:06 |
| hanak | Can i have different wallpapers on different desktops? | 17:06 |
| Jezz | but not the terminal or synaptic | 17:06 |
| bazhang | hanak, aye using compiz | 17:07 |
| jonaskoelker | Lunarizing: what does ls -l /etc/smb.conf say? | 17:07 |
| Jack_Sparrow | hanak yes, but you lose the ability of having icons on the desktop | 17:07 |
| jonaskoelker | Lunarizing: which commands are you typing? | 17:07 |
| Jezz | hanak doesnt work in compiz by default | 17:07 |
| jonaskoelker | Lunarizing: try sudo gedit /etc/smb.conf | 17:07 |
| Jezz | right? | 17:07 |
| p0405136 | what ?? | 17:07 |
| Jack_Sparrow | jonaskoelker Please use gksudo gedit it is important | 17:07 |
| hanak | ok i give it a try thanks | 17:08 |
| jonaskoelker | Lunarizing: what Jack_Sparrow said :) | 17:08 |
| jonaskoelker | Jack_Sparrow: how so? | 17:08 |
| p0405136 | hi all | 17:08 |
| Wicky656 | Is there a way to force the scripts in /etc/cron.d to run? I need to verify they are working | 17:08 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !gksudo | 17:08 |
| ubottu | If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 17:08 |
| Lunarizing | I've used visudo and sudo | 17:08 |
| Pici | !gksudo | 17:08 |
| Lunarizing | I'm running Ubuntu 8 64 bit. Something different with that one? | 17:08 |
| Lunarizing | I've tried installing Samba, but it'll crash every time I try to run it. | 17:09 |
| benpicco_ | Hi, is there some way to skip the mirror-server search during the alternative (server) installatoion? | 17:09 |
| jonaskoelker | Lunarizing: visudo is the wrong thing, use "gksudo gedit /etc/smb.conf" | 17:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | benpicco_ unplug network connection | 17:09 |
| Lunarizing | That brings up an empty file. | 17:10 |
| benpicco_ | Jack_Sparrow: still no change | 17:10 |
| jonaskoelker | Lunarizing: please paste the output of "ls -l /etc/smb.conf" (it should only be one line) | 17:10 |
| kitche | jonaskoelker: isn't it /etc/samba/smb.conf or no since ubuntu splits config files up | 17:11 |
| Jezz | how can i use apt-get install trough a proxy? | 17:11 |
| Jack_Sparrow | benpicco_ no change to what? | 17:11 |
| Lunarizing | is that an i or an L? | 17:11 |
| jonaskoelker | kitche: probably, that's why I'm polling (again) for an ls :) | 17:11 |
| matrix | anyone have problem with wifi after upgrading to 8.04 | 17:11 |
| jonaskoelker | Lunarizing: try gksudo gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf | 17:11 |
| bazhang | matrix, which card | 17:11 |
| Jezz | internet works but synaptic and apt-get dont tru proxy | 17:11 |
| jonaskoelker | Lunarizing: are you reading some tutorial or such that instructs you to edit the file? If so, please give a link | 17:11 |
| matrix | hawking dish | 17:11 |
| benpicco_ | Jack_Sparrow: it had no internet connection when it started, as it lasted that long i finally connected it and entered namesever in resolv.conf - i get wget google and stuff, but install is stuck in trying to acces the mirror server | 17:11 |
| matrix | z1211 | 17:12 |
| bazhang | matrix, check the chipset on that | 17:12 |
| Ayabara | I have only Ubuntu on my laptop atm, but I'm installing Vista and running dual boot. Can I expect grub and stuff to work like it should after installing, or will Vista overwrite stuff? | 17:12 |
| jonaskoelker | Jack_Sparrow: so the only difference is that gksudo sets HOME=/root? Then I'd actually recommend using sudo---it works better with emacs :D | 17:12 |
| bazhang | Ayabara, the second | 17:12 |
| Lunarizing | That worked Jonaskoelker. THANK YOU ALL. | 17:12 |
| Jack_Sparrow | jonaskoelker THere is more of a difference than that, and sudo for gui is NEVER a good idea | 17:13 |
| gligan | hi all | 17:13 |
| jonaskoelker | Lunarizing: you're welcome. Enjoy hacking your samba config ;) | 17:13 |
| matrix | ok thanks bazhang | 17:13 |

| Ayabara | bazhang, hm. and how long and painful is the way back to a working grub? | 17:13 |
| jonaskoelker | ah.. | 17:13 |

| jean-francois219 | someone know why loop device lag while writing? | 17:37 |
| hwilde | keith_, if you don't set the root password then people have to use sudo which requires interactive login which is harder to hack | 17:38 |
| dury | hi there channel :) | 17:38 |
| sipior | hwilde: as opposed to your user account password, which defaults to allowing sudo for everything? | 17:38 |
| Flannel | keith_: If you're referring to single user mode, there's no way to properly protect a system from someone with physical access. If you want to restrict that, you can set a grub password on those entries. There are benefits to using sudo, and some drawbacks to using root. And all the support in this channel is designed with a locked root account in mind. Having one just causes problems with the support | 17:38 |

| fwaokda | :( | 18:02 |
| marion | rootyrootyrooty: I am not using compiz | 18:02 |
| sipior | fwaokda: you'll need at least two partitions. one for the root filesystem, the other for swap | 18:03 |
| bazhang | fwaokda, then do it; the installer will handle it for you | 18:03 |
| sipior | fwaokda: i like to add another for /home, maybe one more for /boot, depending | 18:03 |

| bazhang | fwaokda, which ones | 18:03 |
| g0th | if I access them using nautilus it works fine | 18:03 |
| g0th | who does nautilus access them and what could be a reason that mount.cifs fails? | 18:04 |
| fwaokda | bazhang, Type for new partition, location for the new partition, use as, and mount point | 18:04 |
| soundray | fwaokda: in that case, you can tell the installer to use the "Largest free contiguous space" and it'll partition it for you. | 18:04 |

| Ayabara | Darlok_Williams, ok. but a copy followed by a recursive chmod to the new user _should_ do the trick? | 19:07 |
| jburd | cypha: Yes. One way is to use version control. | 19:07 |
| === ka2u is now known as ka2zzzz | ||
| tripps | bazhang, BTW fixed by selecting skype-static from medi repo | 19:07 |
| cypha | jburd, how is that done? | 19:07 |
| jburd | cypha: Do you know how to use git? | 19:08 |
| cypha | no, sorry | 19:08 |
| AFarris01 | Darlok_Williams: its ok... I don't really have a problem launching from the terminal, but its just inconvenient sometimes | 19:08 |
| Darlok_Williams | Ayabara: After copying just running 'sudo chmod -R [username] [top-level path]' should do it. | 19:08 |

| phiqtion | how can i set up media sharing on the xbox 360 using ubuntu? | 19:08 |
| Darlok_Williams | Ayabara: Sorry, a chown, not chmod | 19:08 |
| mad_max02 | soundray, well people at winehq channel arent much of a hep | 19:08 |
| mad_max02 | *help | 19:09 |
| mad_max02 | so I'll search further | 19:09 |
| Ayabara | Darlok_Williams, ok | 19:09 |
| bullium | cypha: sudo cat /var/log/apt/term.log | 19:09 |
| Radit | i checked in terminal doing: last | less, the output user is my log-in name and reboot. could this be a virus? | 19:09 |
| cypha | what will that do bullium? | 19:09 |
| cypha | what's cat? | 19:09 |
| Darlok_Williams | Radit: It's not a virus. | 19:09 |
| cypha | concatenate? | 19:10 |
| lartza_ | Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory won't autodownload maps/mods and internet stops working for some time after using ET. | 19:10 |
| cypha | the hell does that mean | 19:10 |
| cypha | lol | 19:10 |
| bullium | basically echos the file to stdout (the screen) | 19:10 |
| matthew_ | ayabara: is the external drive ext3, or is it an nfts drive? Cause with nfts, you don't need to worry about the permissions | 19:10 |
| Radit | then, why does it lot out randomly? | 19:10 |
| cypha | stdout is what the config files refer to as the screen? | 19:10 |
| jburd | cypha: For a start you can do this, as a privileged user, in the terminal: `git init .` in the /etc directory. Install the packages, and then do this in the terminal: git diff | 19:10 |
| Pici | Radit: Have you made any changes recently, or let other people have access to your computer? | 19:10 |
| bullium | cypha: basically it displays the file on screen...scrolls to the end of the file | 19:10 |
| Darlok_Williams | Radit: Check your syslog (System -> Administration -> System Log) | 19:10 |
| burundi | have you got any page that talks about viruses in linux? | 19:10 |
| bullium | cypha: in your case it will be the apt log | 19:10 |
| Darlok_Williams | !virus | burundi | 19:10 |
| Pici | !virus | bullium | 19:10 |
| ubottu | bullium: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 19:10 |
| ubottu | burundi: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 19:10 |
| Ayabara | matthew_, it's ext3, but thanks for the thought :-) | 19:11 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !virus | 19:11 |
| jburd | Oh, and before you install the packages, do this too git add .; git commit -m "initial commit" | 19:11 |
| Pici | bullium: sorry, mis-tab compelted. | 19:11 |
| cypha | bullium, u mean term.log? | 19:11 |

| Pici | cypha: Please don't use enter as punctuation. | 19:11 |
| Darlok_Williams | Jos_: What do you mean by "not able to?" Are there errors? | 19:11 |
| Jos_ | "you are not priviliged" he says | 19:11 |
| Radit | Dark_Williams: what do i look for? | 19:12 |
| bullium | cypha: I think that was my response the first time I did it too :) | 19:12 |
| Jack_Sparrow | k | 19:12 |
| cypha | =) | 19:12 |
| soundray | Jos_: use 'sudo mount ...' | 19:12 |
| Darlok_Williams | Jos_: Trying to mount from the terminal? You need to use 'sudo' to do that. | 19:12 |

| matthew_ | !terminal | Jos_ | 19:13 |
| ubottu | Jos_: The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | 19:13 |
| soundray | Jos_: Applications-Accessories-Terminal | 19:13 |

| Flannel | Jos_: either accessories > terminal, or alt-f2 then type 'gnome-terminal' | 19:13 |
| Darlok_Williams | Jos_: Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal | 19:13 |
| Darlok_Williams | yeah, what jburd said. | 19:13 |
| soundray | arrgh | 19:13 |
| cypha | jburd, what's the difference between what you are saying and what bullium is saying? | 19:13 |
| cypha | what's this term.log? | 19:13 |
| cypha | and what's the plugin u want me to download? | 19:13 |
| Darlok_Williams | Flannel: You know, now that you mention that, since I installed Hardy, Alt-F2 does nothing anymore. | 19:13 |
| matthew_ | !sudo | jos_ | 19:13 |
| ubottu | jos_: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. | 19:13 |
| jburd | cypha: What bullium said will show you a log of whatever apt has been doing. What I said will show you exactly which lines were changed and how in which files. | 19:13 |
| Radit | Dark_Williams: what should i look for? | 19:13 |
| Lr5 | Vlet: do you use a fully upgraded Ubuntu 8.04? | 19:13 |

| fwaokda | my wireless is asking for a passphrase... but I've checked in my wireless setup on the router and all it contains are keys and no passphrases. How do i get around this? | 19:14 |
| Darlok_Williams | Radit: Any errors around the times when it logs you out. | 19:14 |
| balachmar | Does anybody know why I am still asked for my password if I want to run a sudo command even if I have put it into the sudoers file with NOPASSWD | 19:14 |
| cypha | k, let me scroll up and run those commands | 19:14 |
| cypha | one sec | 19:14 |
| Darlok_Williams | Flannel: I have a LOT of minor Hardy issues to look into lol | 19:14 |
| fwaokda | nvrmind I found a way around it '( | 19:14 |
| jburd | cypha: Don't run them until you've learned about them. :-) | 19:14 |

| soundray | harushimo: in hardy, you get a tool for configuring dualhead under System-Preferences-Screen Resolution | 19:27 |
| Jaymac | can someone please tell me how I change the paper size on firefox to A4? Why is it US letter anyway? Surely it should be A4 by default as there is only one country in the world that doesn't conform to international standards on paper sizes | 19:27 |
| Myrtti | fyrfry: chech that the directory structure is.themes/<themename>/gtk2.0 | 19:27 |
| amenado | Shimata i gave you an advise to check and verify | 19:27 |
| Myrtti | Jaymac: it's dependant on your locale | 19:27 |
| esteth_ | tripps, There's no "best" way to do anything really, but personally i'd probably just do a recursive copy of the whole filesystem to the NAS drive | 19:27 |
| harushimo | thanks soundray | 19:27 |
| Jaymac | In page setup if I change it to A4 and then print, it still prints in US letter format.... if I change it to A4, restart firefox and print, it is still in US letter | 19:27 |
| harushimo | thanks a lot everyone | 19:27 |
| Myrtti | Jaymac: if you set it to be US when you installed, then you have to do some magic to change it | 19:27 |
| Jaymac | Myrtti: I am in England, so it obviously isn't | 19:27 |
| Shimatta | amenado: sorry, currently have the internal drive out while the external is doing the upgrade. | 19:27 |
| Jack_Sparrow | fyrfry I usually drop the tar onto the theme manager , I dount manually unpack them | 19:27 |
| soundray | Jaymac: no rants please. Just 'echo a4 | sudo tee /etc/papersize' | 19:28 |
| esteth_ | tripps, where "whole filesystem" excludes your any mounted media, like the NAS drive itself | 19:28 |
| fyrfry | myrtti it's .themes/themename/gtk-2.0 does that matter? | 19:28 |
| Iraklis | hi, i have install iproute from sources how can i uninstall it now?? | 19:28 |
| tripps | esteth_, rgr | 19:28 |

| esteth_ | movedx, only users in the sudoers file are able to use su/sudo/gksudo/gksu etc... | 19:34 |

| drumline | Ok.. . Here's a question. This same client wants 4 monitors on his Ubuntu box that I'll be building for him. I've never done that many monitors in Ubuntu. Which video cards should I get to ensure best reliability and ease of setup? He doesn't need them for fancy graphics. Just desktop space. | 19:46 |
| home_ | dunno | 19:47 |
| cosmodad | W8TAH: there's already a funpidgin Debian .deb, right? This might be the right thing to build upon. | 19:47 |

| darkboy | I am darkboy | 19:52 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Randeep sudo a gui app can cause permissions issues and cause your type of problem | 19:52 |
| cosmodad | W8TAH: the effort depends on how different the new beta is, but especially since you're a newbie on packaging, asking the .deb maintainer for the source package could make it a lot easier for you. | 19:52 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Randeep No that wont help now | 19:52 |
| home_ | i know that but where i can find the "boutPlugins" text | 19:52 |
| W8TAH | cosmodad, sounds good to me | 19:52 |

| white_eagle | can I upgrade firefox 3.0b5 to 3.0 RC1 on Ubuntu Hardy? Because the check for updates button in Help is greyed out, and I do remember doing that once, when I saw about ff3.0 rc1 on digg, but after restarting my computer i it reverted to 3.0b5. Anyone else experiencing this problem? | 20:30 |

| pen | Darlok_Williams, ok, fix that later, have you tried to run warsow in terminal? | 20:35 |
| ubottu | kaza_lite: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 20:35 |
| Vlet | ozzloy: yeah, that's why I was saying you should use 192.168.1.120 as your IP, not 192.168.0.120 | 20:35 |
| ozzloy | other than editing that file again and restarting networking | 20:35 |

| Elis | Vlet: thanks bye | 20:42 |
| pen | Darlok_Williams, see if there is any debugging flag you can use | 20:42 |
| danbhfive | j4w4: sudo mount -a will reload fstab changes | 20:43 |

| Darlok_Williams2 | pen: There are no flags to use... | 20:43 |
| jbroome | haile: i agree | 20:43 |
| danbhfive | haile: i dont think so, you need to edit fstab for that | 20:43 |
| luisgonzalez | eitreach try audacity, I believe it has the capability | 20:44 |
| pen | Darlok_Williams, how about your xorg.conf | 20:44 |
| ArthurArchnix | fluffman: I've got a script controlling it because of the load/cycle count issue. But I want to read the value to confirm the script is doing what it should/. | 20:44 |
| eitreach | audacity it is, then. | 20:44 |

| navetz | is there a easy way to copy directories over ftp? | 20:55 |
| Darlok_Williams2 | pen: I'm going to try installing the newest version from .deb... see how that works. | 20:55 |
| thepunisher | wats better wubi or vbox? | 20:55 |
| simplexio | matthew_: uname -a | 20:55 |
| simplexio | matthew_: in terminal | 20:55 |
| pen | Darlok_Williams, and, use aptitude next time | 20:55 |
| zoli2k | navetz: gnome-commander, gftp, nautilus | 20:55 |
| madoc | Thanks Lunar... perhaps you might be able to help me troubleshoot my DVD on a brand new xubuntu install? | 20:55 |
| matthew_ | 2.6.24-16-generic | 20:55 |
| zoli2k | navetz: but i prefer midnight commander (mc) | 20:55 |
| navetz | zoli2k: I am trying to do it through the command line | 20:55 |
| zoli2k | navetz: ncftpput | 20:56 |
| cypha` | does anyone that uses Gnome-Do know how to allow it to search through my files? | 20:56 |
| navetz | zoli2k: is that a command? | 20:56 |
| Jack_Sparrow | thepunisher they are noting close to the same thing | 20:56 |
| Jack_Sparrow | nothing | 20:56 |
| joombaga | eitreach: You can get to it from the menu too, but I don't remember exactly where it is and I'm on a windows box right now | 20:56 |
| matthew_ | simplexio: you want the call trace? | 20:56 |
| zoli2k | navetz: yes, it is in the ncftp package | 20:56 |
| Jack_Sparrow | thepunisher Use vbox | 20:56 |
| thepunisher | ok | 20:56 |
| peterkls | does 64 bit ubuntu run faster than 32 bit | 20:57 |
| eitreach | joombaga: still changes pitch. | 20:57 |

| fwaokda_ | I thought this would be a neat idea but dont know how to do it. Is it possible to lock a transparent terminal on my desktop? | 20:57 |

| fwaokda_ | with no title bar or anything | 20:57 |
| Dukkan | hi | 20:57 |
| madoc | Hello Student | 20:57 |
| Lunarizing | Oh I doubt it. I'm a newbie at this, but usually if you just spell out the details and what trouble your having someone will know. Go ahead, try it. | 20:57 |
| Stavros | hello | 20:57 |
| Stavros | how can i prevent users from reading each other's home directories? | 20:57 |
| studente | Has anyone of you have ever upgraded an original BIOS launching the upgrade program with wine? | 20:57 |
| wubrgamer | how do i uninstall kde4? | 20:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | studente that would be a very dangerous thing to do | 20:58 |
| geo_ | hello, quelqu'un qui parle français? | 20:58 |
| navetz | zoli2k: this will copy a whole directory? | 20:58 |
| IcedDante | I think I wiped out my groups and I cannot login any more but for Recovery mode. groups contains: "root :x :0 : | 20:58 |
| IcedDante | nogroup :x:65534 :" only. Is that abnormal? | 20:58 |

| danbhfive | !puregnome > wubrgamer | 20:58 |
| studente | Jack_Sparrow: Just as I thought - But , let me ask , why? | 20:58 |
| joombaga | eitreach: I don't know then. Try googling. Include your sound card model in your search terms, maybe someone else has had the same problem. Could be software, could be hardware, maybe it's even your speakers. | 20:58 |
| matthew_ | simplexio: it happens four times, then I restarted, but it seems that each one is slightly different | 20:58 |
| Stavros | !gr | Stavros | 20:58 |
| danbhfive | IcedDante: I did that once, I forgot an -a when doing moduser | 20:59 |
| Stavros | err | 20:59 |
| joombaga | eitreach: Have you tried another PC with those speakers? | 20:59 |
| Stavros | !el | Stavros | 20:59 |
| Stavros | ah | 20:59 |
| matthew_ | simplexio: you want them all? | 20:59 |
| ekmon1582 | Can someone tell me how to get my software update icon back on my toolbar? | 20:59 |
| ekmon1582 | I took it off accidentally. | 20:59 |
| simplexio | matthew_: one | 20:59 |
| Jack_Sparrow | studente flashing this bios is critical on timing and even a simple glitch can render your system into a nice expensive doorstop | 20:59 |
| zoli2k | navetz: with the -R option, check the man pages. | 20:59 |
| studente | ekmon1582: Uisng "add to panel" function? | 20:59 |
| Darlok | pen: Okay... the new version didn't work either. | 20:59 |
| matthew_ | simplexio: they are all different | 20:59 |
| joombaga | eitreach: Or even another PC with that soundcard? | 20:59 |
| Darlok | pen: I give up... another broken Hardy package. | 20:59 |
| pen | Darlok, strange | 20:59 |
| eitreach | joombaga: what I'm looking for is a piece of software that will slow down audio, without changing the pitch of it.. there's nothing wrong with my speakers. I'm looking for an alternative to a piece of closed Windows-based software. | 20:59 |
| Jack_Sparrow | ekmon1582 it usually shows up as needed. | 21:00 |
| matthew_ | simplexio: last one says something about nivedia | 21:00 |
| matthew_ | simplexio: others don't | 21:00 |
| Yodude | hey | 21:00 |
| pen | Darlok, maybe try to install the game from the official site? | 21:00 |
| madoc | Wow... there is so much going on here... I need some real handholding at this point. I have installed Xubuntu onto about 20 systems for friends but I just created this new Xubuntu box and without Automatix for 8.04 I am totally lost about getting the DVD player to work. I have installed the restricted drivers etc but nothing is working. Is there a step by step guide someewhre? | 21:00 |
| ekmon1582 | studente: Already tried that, it's not in the options to put on there :(. | 21:00 |
| simplexio | matthew_: ya have quad cire intel? | 21:00 |
| studente | Jack_Sparrow: Then, I won't. My manufacturer wants everyone to have Windows on their machines as there is no way to launch the upgrade before the OS boots | 21:00 |
| joombaga | eitreach: Okay, sorry. I came in late and misinterpreted yout question. | 21:00 |
| matthew_ | simplexio: quad AMD | 21:00 |
| ekmon1582 | Jack_Sparrow: So I don't have to worry about it? | 21:00 |
| danbhfive | !dvd > madoc | 21:00 |
| matthew_ | simplexio: Phenom | 21:00 |
| Yodude | i was signing a file using my PGP key, and when i tried to double click it to verifiy the sig, it sais "unable to open file", shouldn't this trigger usually the extraction of the signed file ? | 21:00 |
| j4w4 | allright im tired of trying to edit my fstab, can I not simply delete the fstab and start from scratch or is this going to mess me up really bad? | 21:00 |
| Darlok | pen: I doubt that will help... something is screwy with the config files. | 21:00 |
| eitreach | joombaga: no worries. | 21:01 |
| Jack_Sparrow | ekmon1582 nope | 21:01 |
| danbhfive | j4w4: that would be bad | 21:01 |
| madoc | what does !dvd mean, dan? | 21:01 |
| Jack_Sparrow | studente you can always look into windows on usb etc. | 21:01 |
| danbhfive | madoc: did you get a pm from ubottu? | 21:01 |
| joombaga | eitreach: and I read audacity as audacious. | 21:01 |
| studente | Jack_Sparrow: I don't have any | 21:02 |
| Lunarizing | Madoc...... For a step by step I'd try the forums. Usually someone has already had that same problem. | 21:02 |
| Lunarizing | And yes, it's crazy in here. | 21:02 |
| IcedDante | danbhfive: any tips on fixing this problem? | 21:02 |
| madoc | Got it -- I will go try this Dan | 21:02 |
| silverblade | How can I check what version of a package is available before installing it | 21:02 |
| madoc | thanks | 21:02 |
| Darlok | silverblade: apt-cache policy [package] | 21:02 |

| Vlet | Dark_Fire: yes | 21:30 |
| simplexio | matthew_: you can use top to check how much everything takes cpu mem etc.. | 21:30 |
| Vlet | ringer: so use 'manual' partitioning. You'll see a partition of the type 'ext3'. Check the 'format' option, and change it's mount location to "/" (without quotes) | 21:30 |

| Vlet | lolo2: dunoh - play around with the repos; you'll find one | 21:42 |
| cosmodad | haile: that will likely not help, as device names get set up rather dynamaically. Try "sudo lshw -short" instead and check the list. | 21:42 |

| Steve-cal | RoAkSoAx: Well I have some added that aren't "official", yes. :) But I should still have Main, Universe, etc repos too. | 21:43 |
| cosmodad | unbkbl: if that is what you mean by kernel-devel... | 21:43 |

| void^ | ICM: only some server editions of windows support pae. on ubuntu, you can use the -server kernel for pae, or recompile the desktop kernel. probably not worth the hassle anyway. | 21:44 |

| Vlet | phixxor: somecommand >> /home/someuser/somefile.log | 21:44 |

| Vlet | gribouille: read your printer's manual maybe? | 21:45 |
| unbkbl | somebody told me to install the kernel-devel | 21:46 |
| cosmodad | unbkbl: that just means you have the kernel installed, not the header files or kernel sources needed to compile. | 21:46 |

| Steve-cal | RoAkSoAx: I'm a bit confused then, if I have everything "enabled" in my Software Sources, then why do I seem to be missing so many of the repos in your sources.list? Is it possible to move my sources.list and have Ubuntu generate a new one? I could always add the extra repos I was using. | 21:48 |
| geek | fwaokda: i tend to use tilde (or better yet, yakuake but its a KDE app) which does something similar | 21:48 |

| bostjan__ | format /media/hda1 ?? | 22:03 |
| LejonVH | gpivan well, as far as Ive understod, the madwifi driver modifies the existing default driver (ath_pci) so you wont have to do anything, and as for a network manager interface I recommended getting wicd, it works perfect for me | 22:03 |
| MCE1223 | is it possible that ubuntu is trying to boot from my external HD and not my primary | 22:03 |
| bostjan__ | format /media/hda1 ext3 .. something like this? | 22:03 |

| SilverRavage | Hey can anyone help me: Just did a clean install of UBUNTU 8.04 and iam getting an IP through DHCP but when i try to go online I cant view websites, I can view the intranet website but cant get out | 22:05 |
| erUSUL | whiteeagle: 2.6 iirc | 22:05 |
| gpivan | LejonVH, lol i am noob XD | 22:06 |
| cosmodad | gpivan: you should check whether your wifi card is available: sudo lshw -C network -short | 22:06 |
| Method2oo7 | can some on help me set up wirless internet all i need to is actavate my wifi card | 22:06 |
| cosmodad | gpivan: does that output some line related to your wifi card? | 22:06 |
| majikins | hi - is there a howto on how to create dvd's off an existing system to install on another system? | 22:06 |
| whiteeagle | erUSUL: ok, thanks | 22:06 |
| LejonVH | gpivan The absolute first thing you make sure is that you have the build-essential installed by going into terminal (applications ->accessories -> terminal) and type in "apt-get install build-essential" | 22:06 |
| erUSUL | SilverRavage: check "ip route" output do you have a default gateaway ?? | 22:06 |
| Method2oo7 | some thang like that | 22:06 |
| haile | cosmodad: theres an error after trying to burn it says no permissions for it. In k3b configure it has my dvd listed but it says the name is /dev/sdc0 (0.0.0) and the interface type is SCSI which doesn't sound right to me. Also i was looking at my fstab and it says "noauto" should that be "auto" instead | 22:06 |
| Gnea | !wireless | Method2oo7 | 22:06 |
| ubottu | Method2oo7: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 22:06 |
| SilverRavage | erUSUL: i do have a Default gateway | 22:06 |
| yngone | anyone know why "/" wont work on fresh install its printing a werid "e" | 22:06 |
| Method2oo7 | !wireless | 22:07 |
| LejonVH | cosmodad That is true, but if I remember correct, madwifi drivers support all the atheros based chipsets, I found it in some list somewhere | 22:07 |
| matthew_ | yngone: its a keyboard setup thing | 22:07 |
| cosmodad | haile: noauto should be right with CD-/DVD-devices. | 22:07 |
| yngone | matthew_; how can i change it? | 22:07 |
| Vlet | yngone: what do you mean by ' | 22:07 |
| Doctor_grijander | #war3z | 22:07 |
| erUSUL | whiteeagle: 2.12 actually | 22:07 |
| Vlet | yngone: oops... it doesn't work | 22:07 |
| cosmodad | LejonVH: hasn't there been a transition between the old and new driver? | 22:07 |
| chris420 | i got a permission's question | 22:07 |
| matthew_ | yngone: look at some of the hardware setup stuff | 22:08 |
| LejonVH | cosmodad you mean atk5? I think that is still in like experimental stage | 22:08 |
| cosmodad | LejonVH: leading to some new cards not being available in the old driver and vice verca? | 22:08 |
| yngone | Vlet; it doesnt work at all im on my windows box right now.... instead of "/" its print a weird "e" | 22:08 |
| Vlet | yngone: oh, I see, the / button :) | 22:08 |
| SilverRavage | erUSUL:in my network settings i have it set on Roaming mode | 22:08 |
| Gnea | chris420: ask away | 22:08 |
| cosmodad | LejonVH: I thought of madwifi-ng, but that might be old school by now. :) Haven't used an Atheros chip in years. | 22:08 |
| LejonVH | cosmodad that could be true, haven't really looked into that | 22:08 |
| Vlet | yngone: in windows? | 22:08 |
| sixforty | where can I find a description of "bios bug #81"? I know a patch is applied, but I'm looking for a desc. of the bug itself. | 22:08 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 81 in rosetta "message 'A system error occurred' when updating a po file" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/81 | 22:08 |
| chao2 | Before I get kicked off the net: my email= toucher5 at yahoo. I installed ubuntu inside windows with the new WUBI that comes with 8.04 Live. Upon reboot it sends me to the initramfs prompt. now what. I dont have raid. but do have dynamic drives enabled through windows pro | 22:08 |
| yngone | Vlet: on ubuntu | 22:08 |
| erUSUL | SilverRavage: then the connection is handled by netwrok-manager (the icon on the right corner) | 22:08 |
| matthew_ | yngone: i'm not exactly sure, but I think you want the keyboard setup to be standerd american english | 22:08 |
| gpivan | LejonVH, cosmodad can go more slow please | 22:08 |
| Vlet | yngone: check to see what layout you're using in your keyboard control panel | 22:09 |
| cosmodad | haile: what does "dmesg|grep -i dvd" give you? | 22:09 |
| chris420 | i have a 60 gig fat32 partition i want to change my self to owner and set other users to be able to use it for system back-ups and what not... or just sharing but i can't seem to do it with chown, chmod, or gksudo thunar... im running xfce | 22:09 |
| gnychis | i'm trying to update from the SSL vulnerability but when i do "apt-get upgrade" it says its holding back the SSL packages, any ideas why? | 22:09 |
| erUSUL | SilverRavage: if you disable roaming mode and configure the connection there does it work? may be a nm bug | 22:09 |
| LejonVH | cosmodad I have no idea about madwifi-ng but it seems like its gone since long, ive only used ubuntu for 2 weeks hardly and madwifi is the only driver I found supported on their homepage but they are developting atk5 that doesn't use HAL | 22:09 |
| Sephy_666 | will my brothers PS3 still play PS3 Games if I put linux on it? | 22:09 |
| SilverRavage | erUSUL: no it doesnt | 22:09 |
| SilverRavage | erUSUL: brb | 22:09 |
| cosmodad | gpivan: consider that internal talk. :) Just do the command I told you and tell me what it gives. | 22:09 |
| LejonVH | gpivan sorry, what stage where you at? Have you installed build-essential? | 22:09 |
| chris420 | i was able to do it to my specs with a ext3 partition i have specifically for media sharing but not for the fat32 | 22:09 |
| MCE1223 | that fixed the problem. For some reason it was set to boot to removable devices first. Thanks a lot! | 22:09 |
| Gnea | chris420: you should be able to access it from linux by using samba | 22:10 |
| matthew_ | Sepyh_666: this isn't that channel to ask that, try to find a more approiate place | 22:10 |
| erUSUL | MCE1223: no problem ;P | 22:10 |
| Sephy_666 | I have | 22:10 |
| gpivan | LejonVH, cosmodad slow please, english makes mi head hurts XD | 22:10 |
| LejonVH | gpvian because I tried a few times without having that installed and I couldn't understand why it didn't work, but then I remember that build-essential is neccessary for the compiler to be used as it should | 22:10 |
| cosmodad | gnychis: what package exactly? openssl? | 22:10 |
| ciro | how can i install a sidebar? | 22:10 |
| chris420 | gnea... hmmm i figured i would be able to since i did mount it so filesystem | 22:10 |
| drumline | What's the name of the package for mysql? | 22:10 |
| LejonVH | gpivan okies, I dunno this irc, is there a possibility to open a private chat? Anyone knows? | 22:11 |
| cosmodad | gnychis: you did sync to the repositories before upgrading, didn't you? | 22:11 |
| Vlet | drumline: server? it's mysql-server | 22:11 |
| haile | cosmoda: nothing comes back | 22:11 |
| matthew_ | drumline: mysql-server I'm pretty sure | 22:11 |
| gpivan | cosmodad, LejonVH i am installing build-essential | 22:11 |
| chris420 | its on the same drive as the other two partitions both / and multimedia are on the same drive... ill try the samba though | 22:11 |
| yngone | wtf | 22:11 |
| cosmodad | gpivan: erm why? | 22:11 |
| yngone | its not working | 22:11 |
| Gnea | chris420: the only difficulty is if you try to match permissions up at the filesystem-level, since fat32 does not have the permissions system that is directly compatible with SMB/CIFS that ntfs has | 22:11 |
| gpivan | cosmodad, jajaja because LejonVH say to me | 22:11 |
| LejonVH | gpivan cosmodad its needed to compile the driver correct | 22:12 |
| drumline | vlet & matthew: thanks... why doesn't it show up under aptitude? Do you know? | 22:12 |
| chris420 | AHHHHHHH | 22:12 |
| chris420 | okay cool... | 22:12 |
| bieb | I am trying to connect to an ubuntu box via xdmcp, in the terminal services client xdmcp is grayed out. Do I need to have xdmcp on my machine also? | 22:12 |
| cosmodad | LejonVH: I see | 22:12 |
| Vlet | drumline: dunoh - never use it | 22:12 |

| === ras is now known as ^ras^ | ||
| bostjan__ | is this correct ? mkfs.ext3 /media/hda1 | 22:12 |
| matthew_ | drumline: might be because the average home user doesn't install server software. :P | 22:12 |
| cosmodad | LejonVH: shouldn't the driver be part of the restricted set and as such already compiled? | 22:12 |
| LejonVH | cosmodad, gpivan I almost lost hope when the driver didn't compile like it should when I freshly installed ubuntu | 22:12 |
| chris420 | WAIT windows machines would be able to read and write to a EXT3 FS through samba as well rght? damn... i forgot bout that till now... | 22:13 |
| gpivan | LejonVH, is installed | 22:13 |
| cosmodad | gpivan: you know what card that is exactly? | 22:13 |
| Gnea | chris420: but on the same system, yeah, i would recommend making a loop through samba | 22:13 |
| cosmodad | LejonVH: I think gpivan might just be missing the module, that's all. | 22:13 |
| Gnea | chris420: yes | 22:13 |
| gpivan | cosmodad, yes, atheros | 22:13 |
| LejonVH | cosmodad, gpivan I dunno, I have done a few installs of ubuntu and sometimes the default drivers have worked, sometimes it hasn't | 22:13 |
| chris420 | < forgets the small but important stuff pretty often haha | 22:13 |
| drumline | matthew_: maybe... but without knowing for certain, I wouldn't be suggesting that aptitude is crippled in that way... | 22:13 |

| matthew_ | yngone: which subset did you use for the american one? Because the amrican's have an international layout that ubuntu seems to like to use | 22:22 |
| MadddHattter | hey | 22:22 |
| drumline | chao2: ...and what's wrong? | 22:23 |
| res22 | just wondering, what window managers do you all use? | 22:23 |
| erUSUL | cosmodad: sorry was for corro_ | 22:23 |
| LejonVH | gpivan then cd into the directory and type "sudo make uninstall" and if it ask to remove any old module type r for remove | 22:23 |
| gpivan | LejonVH, done | 22:23 |
| geek | res22: KDR | 22:23 |
| geek | KDE even | 22:23 |
| erUSUL | corro_: you will be better installing ubuntu-desktop | 22:23 |
| drumline | res22: for lightweight systems, I like xfce... KDE for systems with some beef. | 22:23 |
| erUSUL | cosmodad: tab completion is evil | 22:23 |
| Kapp | is there a command to show -all- ntfs drives? file browser is only show one | 22:23 |
| geek | drumline: i run KDE on a 450 MHZ system ;) | 22:23 |
| cosmodad | erUSUL: agreed. | 22:23 |
| MadddHattter | i need to remote vnc into my friends pc , i remeber there s a way to set up a installer that is for my setting for him to download maybe it was for windows | 22:23 |
| gpivan | LejonVH, done | 22:23 |
| chao2 | I can't boot into ubuntu | 22:23 |
| haile | cosmodad: sudo dmesg|grep -i dvd came back with nothing | 22:23 |
| drumline | geek: ...and molasas drips faster than it? :-) | 22:23 |
| LejonVH | gpivan now type "sudo make" while still in the madwifi directory | 22:24 |
| geek | MadddHattter: its for windows | 22:24 |
| MolePrince | How may I download photos taken from my T-mobile Wing please? | 22:24 |
| cosmodad | MadddHattter: something with SC I think... | 22:24 |
| yngone | Anyone know why my keyboard wouldnt print "/" on a fresh install on ubuntu ???????????????????? its print a weird "e" instead of "/" | 22:24 |
| geek | drumline: no, its plenty snappy. the system has LOADS of ram for something that old tho | 22:24 |
| LejonVH | gpivan it will start to flood ur terminal but as long as it doesn't give any errors you dont have to bother bout that | 22:24 |
| matthew_ | LejonVH, he doesn't need sudo for make | 22:24 |
| drumline | geek: ahh... got it... It's probably the RAM that helps. Just leave things running. :-) That's an old trick with RAM... | 22:24 |
| nadrosima | more person away why staying here lol hello all | 22:24 |
| yngone | Anyone know why my keyboard wouldnt print "/" on a fresh install on ubuntu ???????????????????? its print a weird "e" instead of "/" | 22:25 |
| MadddHattter | cosmodad dont kno | 22:25 |
| geek | drumline: its a kinda terminal serverish system | 22:25 |
| LejonVH | matthew he doesn't? Ive had probs with make saying "access denied" so I take it incase of ;) | 22:25 |
| D1 | I have a question... how do I install avast antivirus? I can choose from an RPM package, a DEB package, or a TAR GZ package. Which do I pick? | 22:25 |
| drumline | geek: heh... I do that with my crappy laptop... I leave it on suspend when not using it, but leave everything up so I don't need to go through the boot-up sequence. | 22:25 |
| MTecknology | yngone, you've been heard the first time | 22:25 |
| gpivan | LejonVH, ? | 22:25 |
| LejonVH | matthew i'll keep that in mind next time | 22:25 |
| haile | cosmodad: i just checked user settings and it says i have permission to use the cd-rom drives | 22:25 |
| drumline | D1: DEB | 22:25 |
| D1 | Thanks | 22:25 |
| geek | drumline: its on all the time, and its almost entirely used through nx | 22:25 |
| cosmodad | haile: sorry I'm out of ideas. It seems to be a k3b issue since reading disk contents works. Maybe check launchpad for k3b bugs. | 22:25 |
| matthew_ | LejonVH, as long as he owns the dir, he should be fine | 22:25 |
| zoidberg | does anyone know how to install ruby on rails on Ubunut 8.04? | 22:25 |
| chao2 | drumline: I installed UBUNTU inside of windows using the Live 8.04 disk. | 22:25 |
| gpivan | LejonVH, then? sudo make install? | 22:25 |
| cosmodad | haile: where did you check that? in k3b? | 22:25 |
| LejonVH | gpivan As matthew pointed out, you dont need to type sudo before "make" | 22:25 |
| LejonVH | gpivan exactly :) | 22:25 |
| drumline | chao2: I have absolutely no experience with Wubi... :-( | 22:25 |
| MTecknology | yngone, first, go to #ubuntu for support, second, make sure you set up the right keyboard layout | 22:26 |
| yngone | MTecknology; sorry just frustrating i cant do anything on my fresh install | 22:26 |
| MTecknology | yngone, scrap the first part | 22:26 |
| LejonVH | matthew_ oh so that is what rules it? Didn't know that :P still rather new to this ^^ | 22:26 |
| gpivan | ohhhhh | 22:26 |
| matthew_ | LejonVh, he might need it for install if he used it for make though, cause root will own the files | 22:26 |
| === Moskvat is now known as Murdock | ||
| MTecknology | yngone, idk how to change keyboard layout, but try that | 22:26 |
| MTecknology | google :) | 22:26 |
| LejonVH | matthew_ Yeah that is true | 22:26 |
| yngone | MTecknology; i just changed the layout from canada to usa and reboot | 22:26 |
| LejonVH | gpivan Did it work? | 22:26 |
| haile | cosmodad: in system,administration,usersandgroups | 22:26 |
| yngone | MTecknology; still doesnt work | 22:27 |
| gpivan | LejonVH, then? | 22:27 |
| gpivan | LejonVH, i dont know | 22:27 |
| Ovispain | j/ #ubuntu-es | 22:27 |
| chao2 | Drumline: I have it installed in windows. upon reboot it gives you the boot screen that lists windows and Ubuntu. | 22:27 |
| LejonVH | gpivan you did make and then "sudo make install"? | 22:27 |
| matthew_ | I'm actually sorta helping people now, which is cool | 22:27 |
| mworth | is there any way to add some data to a mdb (MS access) database from ubuntu? | 22:27 |
| MTecknology | yngone, sorry, that's all i know | 22:27 |
| cosmodad | haile: you using hardy? | 22:27 |
| chao2 | after selecting ubuntu it loads showing the ubuntu usplash | 22:27 |
| LejonVH | matthew_ hehe yeah, helping others is always nice to be able too :P | 22:27 |
| yngone | MTecknology; system ; prefrences ; keyboardd < --- -- this where i should be looking? | 22:27 |
| chao2 | then goes to busy box prompt | 22:27 |
| gpivan | LejonVH, yes, but i dont know if doing good | 22:27 |
| cosmodad | LejonVH: what does unclaimed mean with lshw btw? | 22:27 |
| haile | cosmodad: yes i am | 22:27 |
| nadrosima | if u need acces al db need learn python | 22:27 |
| yamanickill | anyone know bout busybox? my friends laptop wont boot into ubuntu, it boots into busybox, and we can't find out why | 22:27 |
| D1 | Okay, I downloaded DEB for avast antivirus, but it says that I have the wrong architecture | 22:27 |
| chao2 | initramfs | 22:27 |
| linkmaster03 | how can I devote more CPU power to a process? | 22:28 |
| mysterios1 | I am having trouble installing Half-Life 2. I start the install, using the autorun. And when it gets to the copying files part, the disc drive light doesnt light up, and it is terminated because of a critical error. | 22:28 |
| chao2 | :'( | 22:28 |
| MTecknology | yngone, yup - under the layout tab | 22:28 |
| linkmaster03 | like the priorities in winblows | 22:28 |
| erUSUL | linkmaster03: renice the process | 22:28 |
| erUSUL | linkmaster03: man nice | 22:28 |
| LejonVH | cosmodad as far as Ive understod and researched it just means that the driver either 1. isn't installed properlly/wrong driver or 2. Its not used in proper manner/installed wrongly | 22:28 |
| tokjo_ | \connect iscte.ptnet.org | 22:28 |
| cosmodad | linkmaster03: you can't devote "more", but you can increase a job's priority using nice and renice. | 22:28 |
| MTecknology | mysterios1, have you checked the app db? | 22:28 |
| linkmaster03 | erUSUL: thank you cosmodad: thank you | 22:29 |
| cosmodad | LejonVH: ok. | 22:29 |
| chao2 | does anyone know how to get back to ubuntu loading and past the initramfs prompt in busybox | 22:29 |
| haile | cosmodad: ok well thankyou for the help man i apriciate it :) | 22:29 |
| mworth | nadrosima, slight problem- I am rather int he shit and need to make a slight alteration to the database to get a program working urgently- it that the only way? | 22:29 |
| LejonVH | gpivan try to do "lshw -C network" again and see if it still says unclaimed | 22:29 |
| mysterios1 | mtecknology I dont know? | 22:29 |
| MTecknology | mysterios1, http://appdb.winehq.org/ | 22:29 |
| gpivan | LejonVH, ok | 22:29 |
| LejonVH | cosmodad I am still not sure, because like I said I have only used ubuntu for 2 weeks but I have had alot of times reading around on the forums | 22:29 |
| yngone | MTecknology; what is your layout? | 22:29 |
| yngone | MTecknology; usa default? | 22:30 |
| cosmodad | haile: sorry for not resolving the issue. You might want to check https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/k3b/ | 22:30 |
| yamanickill | chao2: i'm having the same problem as you lol | 22:30 |
| MTecknology | yngone, ya | 22:30 |

| mysterios1 | what is a .ink file ? | 22:31 |
| nadrosima | can i give u only a simple script | 22:31 |
| cosmodad | LejonVH: I wasn't sure whether unclaimed just meant "not assigned to a device name", but what you said sounds reasonable to me. | 22:31 |
| cosmodad | LejonVH: is this your first distro? | 22:31 |
| LejonVH | cosmodad :) its all ive found out about it | 22:31 |
| [isxwow]stealthy | I could use some help fixing Hibernate. For some reason, my laptop will not hibernate - when told to do so, it acts like its powering down (dmesg shows this), then immediately powers up ( also shown by dmesg). | 22:32 |
| LejonVH | cosmodad nah, my first headbash with linux (I dunno if its considerd linux tho) was freeBSD for 1 semester in school | 22:32 |

| dmacnutt | LejonVH: not linux :) | 22:32 |
| mworth | I need to read a certian table and probably add data to that table | 22:32 |
| cosmodad | LejonVH: ok then. You seem to be reasonably advancing in Linux issues for something playing the game for a mere 2 weeks. | 22:32 |
| gpivan | LejonVH, but, if we uninstall the other module, and remove from modules, why is still there?? | 22:32 |
| LejonVH | dmacnutt like I thought :P | 22:32 |
| cosmodad | LejonVH: s/something/someone/ | 22:32 |
| dmacnutt | LejonVH: but still a very usable and worthwhile server os | 22:33 |
| chao2 | any ideas | 22:33 |
| chao2 | any ideas | 22:33 |
| setner | I need some help if someone's willing to waste some minutes... I can't hear any sound from my Ubuntu 8.04 (Intel HDA 82801H)... | 22:33 |

| D1 | I'm having trouble installing avast antivirus. Does anybody have a suggestion for an alternative antivirus? | 22:33 |
| zoidberg | hey guys when i type "sudo apt-get install build-essential" i'm getting this message: | 22:33 |
| LejonVH | gpivan because all madwifi seems to do is to replace the old module with the madwifi module and still retain the old module name, so that it by automatics is loaded on system start without modifying startup | 22:33 |
| dmacnutt | D1: clamav | 22:33 |
| setner | has anyone configured correctly this sound card? | 22:34 |
| zoidberg | E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable) | 22:34 |

| zoidberg | whats going on here? | 22:34 |
| cosmodad | haile: good to hear that. No prob, and good luck. | 22:34 |
| LejonVH | dmacnutt Yeah, I liked freebsd alot, even tho it was confusing at first :P | 22:34 |
| matthew_ | zoidberg: either you aren't using sudo, or... | 22:34 |
| chao2 | >:o does anyone know how to get past the busybox initramfs prompt and get into ubuntu | 22:34 |
| Broadcom | what is it with all of the sound problems in 8.04? | 22:34 |
| dmacnutt | zoidberg: you cannot have 2 package processes running, synaptic,adept, apt-get | 22:34 |
| chao2 | im stuck with this install | 22:34 |
| cosmodad | haile: if you happen to find a solution and still find me around, I'd be glad if you let me know of the cause. | 22:34 |
| setner | :p | 22:34 |
| LejonVH | cosmodad I thank you for that, but I owe most of it to that ive read around alot and a little to that I am a programmer too :P | 22:34 |
| gpivan | LejonVH, ok, i load the module and again lshw -C network and is still unclaimed | 22:35 |

| LejonVH | gpivan if you go into the network manager, can you see a wireless connection there? | 22:35 |
| setner | I don't know what happened with this Ubuntu version but I'm hearing a lot of sound problems from other colleagues that installed ubuntu too... | 22:35 |

| setner | can anyone help me? | 22:36 |
| gpivan | LejonVH, nop | 22:36 |
| matthew_ | zoidberg: you must be using 2, only way to get that error, do you have the updater running in the background? | 22:36 |
| cosmodad | LejonVH: Linux is all about RTFM anyway, so that is an achievement. :) | 22:36 |
| Broadcom | setner: just repeat ths question | 22:36 |
| yamanickill | kernl_krack: yes he did | 22:36 |

| LejonVH | gpivan try to restart ur system, I had the same prob with it not working untill after I restarted the comp | 22:36 |
| LejonVH | cosmodad True :) | 22:36 |

| caesa1 | Is there a way to make SDL apps NOt flicker? | 22:37 |
| zoidberg | dmacnutt, gnome | 22:37 |

| cosmodad | gpivan: do you know the exact model of your wifi card? Had would help determine the right driver. | 22:45 |
| ArthurArchnix | pen You have to restart 'x' for some reason, sometimes. Apply a cool font, restart. Create a new folder on your desktop. Should have that font. Some fonts don't work sometimes.

| === Dippah is now known as nad | ||

| setner | crimsun: OK, I'll try that | 23:39 |
| crimsun | setner: and make sure you've migrated the rhythmbox/GSt stream to play on the appropriate device. | 23:39 |
| Sergeant_Pony | zvacet: no not yet... it worked fine for 1 day and then it stopped | 23:39 |
| zvacet | Sergeant_Pony : sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 23:39 |

| herr-jung | you? | 23:41 |
| crimsun | setner: in the Playback tab, right-click and choose the device you want Rhythmbox to play on. | 23:41 |
| erUSUL | Jakoo: df -hs ? | 23:42 |

| lakeoftea | hell yeah | 23:43 |
| Lordmat | Hi all. Having a big problem. I was using a tutorial to do some tweaking last night and I apparently messed something up. I cannot login to my computer. I keep getting a blue screen error saying "daemon/ServAuthDir is set to /var/lib/gdm but not owned by user 108 and group 118" | 23:43 |
| herr-jung | how to drive my usb quickcam? | 23:44 |
| setner | crimsun: and I've choose the right output device in that playback tab too | 23:44 |
| setner | but nothing plays... | 23:44 |
| lakeoftea | is it wise to install ubuntu on separate partition on my HD that also has windows on it ??? | 23:44 |
| setner | and the volume is 100% | 23:44 |
| bbyever | lakeoftea: yes | 23:44 |
| ICM | Guys- I installed Ubuntu 64-bit, it didn't quite work, so I downloaded and burned the ISO for 32-bit. I'm trying to boot into that disc now, but it keeps locking up in the same place during boot... I've tried this with TWO discs now | 23:44 |
| ICM | burned the CD twice, tried it twice, still nada | 23:44 |
| lakeoftea | cheers !!! | 23:45 |
| Jordan_U | Lordmat, What tutorial? | 23:45 |
| herr-jung | soso tolle hilfe hier.. | 23:45 |
| SeaPhor | ICM, did you run the cd checher? | 23:45 |
| zvacet | lakeoftea : it is common thing | 23:45 |
| lakeoftea | i'm just paranoid that i'm going to fuck up windows or something if i remove the partition :) | 23:46 |
| SeaPhor | ICM, *checker | 23:46 |
| sputnick | Hi there. I have "java version "1.6.0_03"; Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_03-b05); Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.6.0_03-b05, mixed mode, sharing)" on ubuntu Gutsy, trying to run "myfreetv" ( tv player using java ), but I've got java exceptions. Please take a look at http://pastebin.com/d78b6167b | 23:46 |
| ICM | SeaPhor: Running that now... it's showing me the Ubuntu splashscreen currently (Ubuntu and the orange/black loading bar beneath it) | 23:46 |
| lakeoftea | ladedade | 23:46 |
| zvacet | lakeoftea : http://psychocats.s465.sureserver.com/ubuntu/installing | 23:46 |

| SeaPhor | ICM, is this a laptop or desktop? and what speed did you burn the disks at? | 23:47 |
| Lordmat | Jordan_U: http://www.goitexpert.com/entry.cfm?entry=ubuntuguide | 23:47 |
| lakeoftea | desktop 2.4x | 23:47 |
| lakeoftea | mega sloooow | 23:47 |
| ICM | SeaPhor: burned the CDs with my laptop at 8X, the machine I'm trying it on is a desktop, it's checking the CD now | 23:47 |
| ICM | I may have to burn it again slower :-/ | 23:47 |
| lakeoftea | thanks for your help everyone | 23:48 |
| ICM | Crazy enough, I burned a CD earlier with the 64-bit version, had absolutley no problems with that | 23:48 |
| SeaPhor | ICM, ISO's in general is a good rule to burn at lowest speed but wait for test result | 23:48 |
| zvacet | ICM : you can try alternate CD if no joy with live CD | 23:48 |
| Lordmat | Jordan_U: If you go down to the bottom of that tutorial, I also have a post there that is a bit more detailed about my problem. Poster name is trent | 23:48 |

| SeaPhor | ICM, ok, where / what point is it getting to? | 23:50 |

| M1DLG | Can I make a link (like I do on my windoze box) on my desktop that opens a thunderbird send to window (with to: and subject filled in with info in the link?? | 23:50 |
| jonnymac | I'm having difficulty repartitioning my hard drive. using Gparted from the live cd but there's a couple of things I haven't figured out yet. the partitions seem to be locked with a colour coded system that means I can't resize or move the partition to the required position so that then I can make it 'grow'. I'm fairly ubuntly challenged so I know it's probably fairly bloody obvious but I just don't get it. What type of file does it | 23:51 |
| clintchanc1 | Anyone know of a sidebar thing live in vista for ubuntu? | 23:51 |
| luc_ | hi | 23:51 |
| Lordmat | zvacet: I actually did try that in save mode (through grub), but anytime I try to make a changed i get an error message saying "read only file". I tried to make the changes as root and my normal user | 23:51 |
| Lordmat | zvacet: sorry, meant 'safe' mode, not save | 23:51 |
| luc_ | i am noob | 23:51 |
| bbyever | clintchanc1: sidebar thing? you might want to explain yourself better... | 23:52 |
| luc_ | for italy chat? | 23:52 |
| ICM | SeaPhor: While attempting to launch into the LiveCD mode (first option, not exactly sure what it was, sorry) it shows the Ubuntu splash/loading screen, with it saying 'ubuntu' and underneath it the loading/progress bar | 23:52 |
| bbyever | luc_: ubuntu-it | 23:52 |
| clintchanc1 | bbyever, ever seen vista' sidebar? | 23:52 |
| zvacet | jonnymac : you have to use live CD because locked partition mean they are in use (mounted) | 23:52 |
| ICM | seaphor: after a few minutes, the little orange bit just stops moving completely | 23:52 |
| clintchanc1 | its got a load of applets and stuff that are moduled into it | 23:52 |
| bbyever | !it | luc_ | 23:52 |
| ubottu | luc_: Vai su #ubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie! | 23:52 |
| jonnymac | but I am using a live cd | 23:52 |
| bbyever | clintchanc1: nope, never seen it | 23:53 |
| Argonium | ok sorry :( | 23:53 |
| luc_ | thank! | 23:53 |
| jonnymac | how can I unmount the volumes? | 23:53 |
| Argonium | but its urgent | 23:53 |
| zvacet | Lordmat : gksudo gedit /var/lib/gdm does that work | 23:53 |
| ICM | SeaPhor: did the same exact thing when I selected 'install' | 23:53 |
| Lordmat | zvacet: I'll try that shortly, i have to boot back into safe mode | 23:53 |
| clintchanc1 | bbyever, its a bar usualy translucent that sits to the side of the monitor. You can plug in modules into it such as weather time games and email into it | 23:53 |
| ICM | (instead of the 'Try Ubuntu without any changes to your hardware' option | 23:54 |
| Argonium | !urgent | 23:54 |
| ubottu | Factoid urgent not found | 23:54 |
| Jordan_U | Lordmat, Do you have a backup of your /etc/fstab ? | 23:54 |
| clintchanc1 | i manly need one so i dont have to use gnomes weather modules | 23:54 |
| Moduliz0r | Hi, how would I cause a program to shut up and go into the background (so I can put it in rc,local)? | 23:54 |

| clintchanc1 | bbyever, or that | 23:54 |
| bbyever | clintchanc1: why wouldnt you want to use those? | 23:54 |
| erUSUL | Argonium: why don't you ask on #tor ?? | 23:54 |
| Lordmat | Jordan_U: No :( | 23:54 |

| jonnymac | Gnight | 23:55 |
| Jordan_U | Lordmat, Try changing them back from a LiveCD | 23:55 |
| bbyever | clintchanc1: screenlets? yes. the vista sidebar, no, i dont think so | 23:55 |
| Moduliz0r | How can I execute a program/script into the background and make it quiet? | 23:55 |
| clintchanc1 | bbtever, i just had too ask. Sorry for wasting your time i see that its avalibale | 23:55 |
| jansen | can anyoen tell me what fusion icon is for?? i just got it but itdidnt change my desktop.. | 23:55 |
| SeaPhor | ICM, ok, is the machine hard locked at that point? | 23:55 |
| Lordmat | Jordan_U: any live cd, or does it have to be same version, exactly how would i change them back? just copy from cd to my desktop? | 23:55 |
| ICM | hard locked? | 23:56 |
| Steve-cal | Moduliz0r: You mean run it in the background? ./script & | 23:56 |
| bbyever | clintchanc1: np | 23:56 |
| ICM | I don't understand why this is locking up, that's Windows job! | 23:56 |
| M1DLG | Can I make a link (like I do on my windoze box) on my desktop that opens a thunderbird send to window (with to: and subject filled in with info in the link?? | 23:56 |
| Moduliz0r | Steve-cal: Yeah, but how do I silence all output? | 23:56 |
| ICM | SeaPhor: Wait a minute, it is doing something... | 23:56 |
| Seeker` | ICM: hard locked = doesn#t respond to any keyboard / mouse input | 23:56 |
| jansen | can anyoen tell me what fusion icon is for?? i just got it but itdidnt change my desktop.. =[[[ | 23:56 |
| ICM | Seeker`: Thanks | 23:56 |
| Moduliz0r | Steve-cal: I want to put it in rc.local so I dont want any weird crap coming through | 23:56 |
| cyberbrain | is browse device in bluetooth menu icon work for someone?i want to copy entire folder not to send file by file to my mobile phone!!!??? | 23:56 |
| ICM | SeaPhor: Maybe I was being too impatient or something... right now it's saying 'Starting Common Unix Printing System: cupsd" and staying on that | 23:57 |
| clintchanc1 | Does google cap its download quota? im geting like 80 KB | 23:57 |
| clintchanc1 | is it my wireless? | 23:57 |
| SeaPhor | ICM, good sign | 23:57 |
| erUSUL | Moduliz0r: program 1>&2 /dev/null | 23:57 |
| cyberbrain | !bluetooth | 23:57 |

| SeaPhor | Seeker`, Thanks ;-) | 23:57 |
| Moduliz0r | erUSUL: thanks ill try it | 23:57 |
| Steve-cal | Moduliz0r: Well, you can always send all its stdout and stderr off to La-La Land: ./script &> /dev/nulll & | 23:57 |
| erUSUL | Moduliz0r: program 1>&2 /dev/null & | 23:57 |
| Broadcom | clintchanc1: could be wireless | 23:57 |
| elsteo | guys if i install something via synaptic, how do i get it into my applications menu? | 23:57 |
| Moduliz0r | aah | 23:57 |
| Moduliz0r | hang on which one? | 23:57 |
| clintchanc1 | Broadcom, not what i wanted to hear, that could mean that the drivers are slowing me down | 23:58 |
| yotta | I just upgraded from 7.10 to 8.04 and keyboard repeat is now shut off in X... How can I fix it? | 23:58 |
| Seeker` | elsteo: what did you install? | 23:58 |
| bbyever | elsteo: it normally goes automatically | 23:58 |
| Broadcom | clintchanc1: is this new? | 23:58 |
| elsteo | qemu | 23:58 |
| Seeker` | elsteo: I think that is a command line application, so it needs to be run from a termianl | 23:58 |
| jonnymac | If first I resize the windows partition and then delete the smaller partitions (not the one marked recovery) should I then be able to enlarge the ubuntu partition size (on Gparted) and do I need to reformat it as a particular file type? | 23:58 |
| elsteo | yeah it is | 23:58 |
| clintchanc1 | Broadcom, reletively i only installed the drivers (after about a week of searching) two days ago | 23:58 |
| elsteo | that makes sense :) | 23:58 |
| Seeker` | elsteo: It isn't a GUI app, so it doesn't make sense to have a link to it in a menu | 23:58 |
| Broadcom | clintchanc1: what wireless card? | 23:58 |
| Steve-cal | Moduliz0r: I think erUSUL's syntax only works through a pipe.. have you tried that erUSUL? | 23:59 |
| elsteo | is that the distinction then? will all GUI stuff automatically go to the menu? | 23:59 |
| SeaPhor | ICM, ok, try to pay close attn to where it stops responding (if it does) and do you have speakers hooked up? | 23:59 |
| Seeker` | elsteo: I wont say *everything* definitively, but most things should | 23:59 |
| Moduliz0r | Steve-cal: Will your method make *all* output die? | 23:59 |
| clintchanc1 | Broadcom, Atherose something | 23:59 |
| elsteo | cool, thanks mate | 23:59 |
| bbyever | elsteo:i think i saw a GUI for qemu | 23:59 |
| Broadcom | ICM: free | grep Swap what does this give you? | 23:59 |
