m-cHymnToLife: but how do I go about doing the install without the bootable cd?00:00
Xecuter_DeepThought: nope..00:00
HymnToLifem-c: then, when the installer of the distro asks you where you want to install GRUB, install it on the partiton _NOT_ the MBR00:00
DeepThoughtXecuter_: in konqueror00:00
NaisenuHymnToLife: nm me ... FF2 & FF3 don't share a common plugins dir00:00
STSXXecuter; Should be "device.map" not devices.map I think...00:00
DeepThoughtXecuter_: should really be there; lemme check00:00
Sergeant_Ponyhi00:00
m-cHymnToLife: ah... so I should be able to run the installer within ubuntu ?00:00
afallenhopeanyone have issues with the virtual terminals (CTRL+ALT+F1)??? When I switch to terminal one it's just a black screen... CTRL+ALT+F7 works to get back to the GUI though00:00
HymnToLifem-c: not all distros support installing that way00:00
Sergeant_Ponywhats upp dawggg00:00
aznanimedudehmm, i'm trying to load guild wars and i hear the music but no game screem pops up00:00
aznanimedudewtf00:00
HymnToLifeactually, only Gentoo supports it officially, IIRC00:01
DeepThoughtXecuter_: sorry; is device.map00:01
Xecuter_DeepThought: yea, but its still not there00:01
Sergeant_Ponyhhaha this is ponys daughter00:01
DeepThoughtXecuter_: veery strange; anyone have a clue ?00:01
NaisenuWoot. Fixed. Thanks!00:01
Sergeant_Ponyi dont know what u guys are talking aobut00:01
m-cHymnToLife: any experience installing debian ?00:01
Xecuter_DeepThought: its the arch boot if that makes a difference00:01
DeepThoughtXecuter_: as far as I know it should always be there; but maybe you have to make it if not there..   Ehhh  the arch boot ?  what do you mean ?00:02
aznanimedudehmm, i'm trying to load guild wars and i hear the music but no game screem pops up, any ideas?00:02
apetrescuIs there a specific IRC channel for support for Ubuntu running on Mactels?00:02
mythomaniacHello all... I seem to have a problem with getting firestarter to autostart after reboot... I changed the sudoer's file to include <username> ALL=NOPASSWD:/usr/sbin/firestarter, while in sessions putting in sudo firestarter --start-hidden - but it doesn't work... can anyone help me?00:02
HymnToLifem-c: not without a CD00:02
Xecuter_DeepThought: i mean the boot dir that comes with arch linux00:03
HymnToLifeshoult be doable, though00:03
STSXXecuter_: Just a thought, but have considered just simply reinstalling Grub? You could save a copy of your menu.lst in case you need it.00:03
DasmooverHey, I've been trying to install ubuntu for months. After the kernal loads, it sits on a black booting screen with a loading cursor. Anyone help me?00:03
m-cokay thanks for your advice HymnToLife - I will ask around in the debian channels00:03
DeepThoughtXecuter_: oohhh.. that could be different, of course.   But it' s still grub ?   or maybe LILO ?00:03
HymnToLifeDasmoover: would try the Alternate CD, if I were you00:03
DasmooverI got the 8.0400:03
Dasmooverit did the same thing00:04
HymnToLife!alternate00:04
ubot3The Alternate CD is a classical text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD.  Look for the alternate checkbox on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal - Torrent at http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.04/ubuntu-8.04-alternate-i386.iso.torrent00:04
aznanimedudemake sure no problems with XD00:04
aznanimedudemine worked just fine00:04
Xecuter_STSX: thats what i'm trying to do!00:04
Dasmooverand when i booted the live cd for 8.04 it stalls on a mango colored screen00:04
grobda24Where's ubottu bot ? Or maybe I should use ubot3 ?00:04
Xecuter_DeepThought: yes its grub00:04
aznanimedudeahh that happened to me too before00:04
aznanimedudei just made another one00:04
aznanimedudeand that one worked fine00:04
Dasmoovermy problem can be fixed with alternate cd?00:05
aznanimedudeit might be00:05
aznanimedudeworth a try00:05
Dasmooveri've heard something about my chipset and noacpci00:05
DeepThoughtXecuter_: well, let me paste my device.map; you can try to use that after tweaking it to your situation ?00:05

DeepThoughtafallenhope: I had that problem with gutsy; not in hardy however, it's ok now00:06
STSXXecuter_: Why not then do a "sudo grub-install /dev/sda"?00:06
Marcus_Intalexhi can somebody help me please i have problems using my asus dvd ram in ubuntu 8.0400:07
Xecuter_STSX: 'Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device.'00:07
STSXmythomaniac: Can you run firestarter from the command line OK with sudo?00:07
mythomaniacSTSX: yes00:07
DeepThoughtXecuter_: http://pastebin.com/m5125e88800:08
DasmooverMarcus Intalex is nice dnb :)00:08
afallenhopeDeepThought: how'd you fix it00:08
Marcus_Intalexyes i know thx00:08
STSXXecuter_: Did you make sure you used the right device? I just put sda in as an example.00:08
Dasmooverlol00:08
DeepThoughtXecuter_: note how the order is topsy turveed; it was made just a-b-c-d bu grub; wich was wrong00:08
Xecuter_STSX: yes, its sda100:08
goldbondi just upgraded to the new release, but my resolution is now limited to 800x600. i suspect i need to reconfigure my display. how can i do that?00:08
STSXXecuter_: OK, but the actual command needs "sda" then, not "sda1"--did you use sda?00:09
DeepThoughtafallenhope: I didn' t , I installed hardy before It bugged me so much I wanted to fix it... ;-)00:09
mythomaniacSTSX: even the firestarter website states to do as i did, but it wont autostart?00:09
Xecuter_DeepThought: just paste that into /boot/grub/device.map, and fix it for me of course00:09

PCcertifiedTrouble installing a driver.   says kernel ver of GCC does not match gcc-3.4 .... for more detailed information please see http://paste.ubuntu.com/16081/00:10
goldbondlangleyo, yes. the max is 800x600.00:11
DeepThoughtXecuter_: oh, yes; just make new textfile in boot/grub (remember to open the folder as root) and ppaste the map, change the numbers and number of disks for you sys00:11
STSXmythomaniac: Does firestarter need sudo or gksudo? I'm not familiar with it, so is it a command run in the terminal or a GUI application?00:11
langleyogoldbond: kk...sorry...just checking00:11
DeepThoughtXecuter_: There' s a prog that can show what he number of disks is right now, also a command in grub, but i' m sorry I forgot...00:12
StarnestommySTSX: gksudo is for graphical programs00:12

Starnestommymshanks: what happens when you try to restart it?00:13
mshankstrying to start it (sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start) just returns fail00:13
DeepThoughtXecuter_: anyway you cabn find out what it is at boot by editing the start-line in menu each time; if it boots, that' s the right number etc etc00:13
STSXStarnestommy: I know, that's exactly why I'm asking him whether it is GUI or not...00:13
STSXmythomaniac: OK so in sessions you are putting "sudo firestarter"?00:13
Xecuter_DeepThought: yeah that i know, but i have to get grub running first :P00:14
mythomaniacSTSX: yes "sudo firestarter --start-hidden"00:14
STSXmythomaniac: And that exact command runs OK in a terminal?00:14
DeepThoughtXecuter_: of course...  Also very useful can be qgrubeditor, when you get it on; is in synaptic; startup manager is great too, is sort of the same, though different00:15
mythomaniacSTSX: let me see and i'll report back...00:15
DeepThoughtXecuter_: and of course:00:15
DeepThoughtXecuter_: | !grub00:15
mythomaniacSTSX: yes "sudo firestarter --start-hidden" does indeed work through the command line...00:15

STSXTerabyte: I believe it's supposed to be %f instead of %d00:42

mrwizardI have a bit of a challenge. I have an old computer that I would like to put ubuntu on. It's a computer with no cd burner. It's a PPC computer. It has no internet, and no usb. I have another computer that can connect to it using ethernet that has internet, but a broken cd drive. It does have usb. The target computer currently runs Mac OS X 9.2.2. The other computer runs Mac OS X 10.4.11. Is there a way to put ubuntu on it?00:44
gosmackyeah it doesn't give me an error at all00:44
Terabytestsx, I have just tried it with %f (out of idle curiosity) it opens vlc, but does not play the file. %d works fine though.00:44

larson9999i've been getting lots crashes in ubuntu.  about 1-2 a day for a LONG time.  since feisty.  i always chalked it up to flash, nvidia or sometime.  i did full reinstalls as well as upgrades and no luck.  recently i did some distro shopping and discovered this machine doesn't crash as all in sabayon, arch, or slacware.01:19
BodsdaXecuter, grub is only a prob if theres a distro on this new drive01:20
Bodsdalarson9999, thats nice01:20
tj83_gorio.... i just tried it... your right it doesnt work in 8.04.... not sure... try google.01:20
m_newton<larson9999> at first glance sabayon looks cool!01:20
InvaderAmotolarson9999: is it a hard lock up in which you have to press your computer's power button or does it come back?01:20
XecuterBodsda: i'm having a grub problem; error 15, so i have to reconfigure grub... and ive followed the guide at ubuntuforums, but it doesnt work01:21
larson9999Bodsda, not really.  i'd like to give this laptop to my 7 year old with ubuntu since it's a bit more user friendly.  but i don't want to give it to him while it's crashy pants01:21
tj83_gorio.... "alsa --help" doesnt give anythin pertaining to setup either.01:21
m_newtonI have an hardy ubuntu server, it cant connect to internet though :( Is there any way i can connect to internet through wirelessly01:21
InvaderAmotoXecuter: if you have multiple hard drives try setting the boot order to go to one of the other drives. that fixed the same problem for me01:22
Bodsdalarson9999, well i think you should take it upon yourself to ask for help then01:22
ZaidenIs there an N64 emulator for 64 bit hardy?01:22

redshadowheroSo.. I think the adobe flash plugin is causing Ubuntu to crash *and* lose sound. So, with that in mind, I want to replace it. Any suggestions that are better?01:24

InvaderAmotolarson9999: i had the same problem as you. Unfortanatly so do many others. and i dont beleive all of them have found a fix. It turns out there are multiple things causing that problem. Mine was disk I/O errors.01:24
Bodsdaredshadowhero, theres nothing wrong with flash at my end but theres a few alternatives i think (cant remember the names though)01:24

InvaderAmotolarson9999: if u want to try to narrow it down a little to see if your problem is like mine, just leave the computer without touching the mouse or keyboard next time it crashes. for me it would come back but opening apps or doing anything related to reading the disk would cause a crash or make a disk I/O error pop up.

UplinkTY02:03
nano_does anybody know that command that will tell you who is using a certain device....in case, the device is not being unmounted, because it is busy02:03
Ashfire908heartsblood, you need to change the perms for the folder.02:03
heartsbloodto?02:03
Uplinktrakinas, how do i get the module of my audio?02:04
Matt12tj83 m_newton...should the new live cd work...should I just install ubuntu again? and leave it...or is their a grub repair/remove app on it?02:04
Ashfire908heartsblood, read "man chmod"02:04
heartsblood770 should allow the owner and group members entrance.  I don't want 'others' using ls on the directory02:04
trakinasUplink: that, i cannot help...02:04
STSXnano_: You can use "lsof" for that, but I'm not sure of the exact options to use for your case. Just check the man page.02:04
heartsbloodAshfire908, I know how to use the command02:04
nano_STSX thx02:05
Ashfire908heartsblood, are the other users in the group that the folder is set to?02:05
Ashfire908Can someone point me to a guide for setting up a domain for a network?02:05
tj83matt12.. unless you mad a back up of you grub settings.. its probably your only choice02:05
heartsbloodyes02:05
m_newton<Matt12> There is a way to repair grub, but it is kind of easy, but if you want to download all the other stuff again just reinstall02:05
nano_STSX: there was actually another command that i  was in reference to02:05
nano_don't you hate it when you cant think of a very important command when u need it most!!02:05
osmosiskernel: Cannot read proc file system: 9 - Bad file descriptor.   how do I remount proc ?02:05
heartsblooddo I need to log out the users for that to take effect?02:05
m_newton<Matt12> There is a way to repair grub, but it is kind of medium level (correction)02:05
STSXnano_: Always more than one way to skin a cat in linux... :)02:06
nano_STSX: lol, yeah02:06
Ashfire908heartsblood, no.02:06
tj83Matt12 do you dual boot? and does it give you the "press esc for menu" message?02:06
Matt12m_newton...fair enough so I should just install ubuntu as usual again...and things should be fine02:06
trakinashas anyone used xvidcap before?02:06
Matt12um the computer I have doesn't have an ISO program...is there any free program/trial program02:06
Ashfire908heartsblood, perms always take immediate effect.02:07
heartsbloodhttp://pastebin.com/m6bcf55d302:07
tj83Matt12 what did you do prior to the issue to possibly "cause" the error?02:07
Ashfire908heartsblood, are the folders that contain the folder set to the right group/perms?02:07
heartsbloodyou can see what i'm looking at there02:07
m_newton<Matt12> yes, but you will need to get all updates and apps again, also you will have a clean harddisk, all data will be gone...02:07
tj83Matt12 look for ISOburn on google02:07
Matt12tj83 I unassigned the partition through windows02:07
heartsbloodthe user is clearly part of the group but I can't cd to the directory02:07
trakinasMatt12: InfraRecorder (if you are on windows)02:07
Matt12m_newton...what about all my windows files.02:07
tj83you killed which partition? windows or ubuntu or what?02:08
=== Martinp23 is now known as martinp23
tj83Matt12 which partition?02:08
Matt12tj83 I killed the ubuntu partition, which killed the grub loader which now won't let me start up02:08
m_newton<Matt12> yup, only if you installed on the whole disk though02:08
tj83yea... ubuntu is gone! matt1202:08
m_newton<Matt12> have you partitioned your harddisk?02:09
tj83matt12... reinstall ubuntu is your only option.02:09
Matt12it is partitioned  yes02:09
taurusivyStarnestommy: but libc6 in dapper's repo is 2.3.6, the app needs at least 2.4..02:09
Starnestommytaurusivy: you might need to upgrade ubuntu02:09
tj83m_newton... sounds like he killed the ubuntu partition.. hence the error..02:09
Packerfancan someone help with ATI drivers for a 9250 pci card02:10

Kakuratinin: yea.. so I don't think I can find one...02:12
m_newton<Matt12> srry once again wrong comment 2 wrong guy02:12
Matt12m_newton I enjoyed ubuntu, but I really never used it...I was just hoping to reclaim the 15 gigs i alotted it02:12
tj83Ha... your trying to repair the windows MBR then... wow.02:12
heartsbloodAshfire908, you were wrong sir.  I had to log each user out and log back in for the changes to take effect.02:12
heartsbloodAshfire908, it works fine now02:13
tj83Matt12 SHAME! on you for trying to ditch ubuntu.02:13
Ashfire908heartsblood, what?02:13
Ashfire908heartsblood, how are you accessing the folder?02:13
TerabyteHey, I want to update my computer remotley, Obviously when I'm sitting infront of it I can run "software updates" but otherwise how can I do the same thing over the command line, I basically want the whole "update, yes yes yes accept next to all" but done over the command line. Is this possible?02:13
heartsbloodI'm using nautilus, the others will most likely be using a bash term from putty02:14
tj83Matt12... it should be the exact opposite... I dumped my perfectly legal copy of vista for ubuntu.02:14
Packerfanhow can I check what version of xorg I have?02:14
Matt12tj83 I'm not knowledgable enough to get the most out of ubuntu02:14
Ashfire908Terabyte, sshd and "apt-get update && apt-get upgrade"02:14
houmalaI think I found the answer to getting ubuntu to windows people. WWhen I tried to give someone a disk I made for them to try ubuntu I would get a so so reaction. I ordered 25 factory ubuntu disk from the ubuntu webite and they went like i was handing out 5 dollar bills ?????02:14
KakuraHey anyone, I've been trying to make my options for choosing a higher screen resolution higher than the 800x600 I am given. I've trien almost anything, does anyone have any input on what I should do02:14
Matt12tj83 I can zip my way around windows easily, but with Ubuntu I was just doing basic stuff.02:14
Ashfire908heartsblood, you shouldn't need to logout to do it.02:15
Terabytethanks ashfire02:15
tj83Matt12... yes you are!.... it takes devotion... and time and simply removing windows from your environment... if you force yourself to live without windows for a month.. you'll never go back02:15
m_newton<Matt12> oh, so then you should... oh wait repairing grub wont deleat it02:15
nano_STSX: found it......the command i was looking for was fuser02:15
Terabytematt12 what are you trying to do?02:15
Matt12now I don't care..Ill keep ubuntu if it will give me my computer back02:15
heartsbloodAshfire908, I'm just telling it that is what fixed it.  In fact i'm sitting on the last user account (has not been logged out yet) and he can not enter the folder02:15
Matt12terabyte I tried to reclaim my ubuntu partition for windows...which killed the grub loader and now I can't get on the computer02:15
tj83Matt12... grub and all things on that partition are now gone.. and now you have a "damaged" MBR. (master boot record) on your windows partition.02:16
Ashfire908Terabyte, sshd will get you a SSH daemon which will get you a shell with a secure connection and apt-get is the package manager.02:16
Terabytethanks ashfire90802:16
Matt12tj83 what are you saying man...am I cooked?02:16
heartsbloodAshfire908, after a quick relog he can now cd to the directory just fine.02:16
Terabytematt12 what did you use? I use partition magic for 'reclaiming space'02:16
Ashfire908heartsblood, whatever.02:16
trakinaswhy xvidcap sucks with me? =(02:16
STSXnano_: Great you figured it out--I'll have to remember that command in the future.02:16
Matt12i did just unassigned it I was trying to format it but vista wasn't letting me02:16
nano_STSX: its a lifesaver  really!02:17
zcat[1]I've got a uniden GPS unit here, with a USB interface.. in windows it comes up as a USB serial port and I can dump the GPS data into hyperterm.. But I can't seem to get Ubuntu to recognise it at all; it shows up in lsusb but that's about all... any suggestions?02:17
tj83Matt12... its not about keeping ubuntu to get your stinking windows back!. its about letting loose of windows!... no thats not what i am saying... what i am saying is if you wanted to try ubuntu and dual windows with it... would have been smart to take precautionary measure by backing up your mbr.02:17
KakuraHey anyone, I've been trying to make my options for choosing a higher screen resolution higher than the 800x600 I am given. I've trien almost anything, does anyone have any input on what I should do?02:17
PackerfanWhat installation of ubuntu would you reccomend for a old Pentium 2, I would assume xubuntu or is there another distro that may work better?02:18
Xecuterok i'm back... again... but now i dont think grub is my problem; i've done the whole 'root (hd2,0)' and soforth, but its still not starting... booting hangs just befor grub is supposed to start. It's an SATA-disk, any clues?02:18
Terabytematt12, have you tried looking up "reinstall vista bootloader" in google?02:18
m_newton<Matt12> i have to go, easy fix is installing windows, i dont know much now cuz i have deleated my vista, i think deleating the grub might work.02:18
tj83Matt12... but... yes.. re-installing will essentially "patch" your mbr into a usable state again.. although i seriously hesitate to admit this to you as need some guidance to get started into linux.02:18
STSXnano_: So before I did into its manpage, just out of curiosity, what are the options you are feeding it? What does your command look  like?02:18
jack_sprattKakura: dyu know why you're limited to 800x600?02:18
Terabytematt12 see: http://www.vistax64.com/vista-general/26152-reinstalling-vista-bootloader.html02:18

m_newtonbye to all ... for now02:18
Packerfanany ideas where to start looking?02:18
Kakurajack_spratt: I have no idea, but I guess maybe cause my monitor is old, SiS graphics card, or there is some error, or I'm doing something wrong02:19
jack_sprattPackerfan: tinyme springs to mind, but there are others that are better still for old machines02:19
=== PrivateVoid_Ghos is now known as PrivateBooted
Packerfanalso its cd drive is dead, should I just plug in one of my drives temporarily for it02:19
Terabytematt12 obviously you'll need your vista dvd;)02:19
jack_sprattKakura: has the monitor displayed higher before? has the chipset?02:19
tj83Matt12... I completely understand... I tried many linux distros and gave up multiple times..02:19
Packerfanor is there a way to wirelessly install using the floppy and a wifi network02:19

vbabiy-laptopHey when I install fonts do i have log out and log back in for them to be usable in applications?02:20
jack_sprattPackerfan: there are ways to install without CD, I dont know how to do it with buntu, i can only advise regarding other distros. in windows however you could presumably create a virtual cd drive and then mount an iso you could import from somewhere or download, and then install buntu using wubi02:21
tj83Matt12... and thats what we are all in here for... is to help you... so you can become one of us and help others too... I am not super experienced either... only been back in linux for a few months... but i "removed" vista.. and love it!02:21

LimCorezcat[1]: interesting02:22
Kakurajack_spratt: well I have a SiS video card, and I'm not sure how to install their drivers in Ubuntu, as they don't make them for any other OS except Windows02:22
zcat[1]'cos basically *nobody* teaches anything but MSOffice on MSWindows ..02:22
tj83Matt12.... Microsoft has brainwashed the general public to do whats "easy". and witht that comes limitations... thats the only way to make serious computing easy... it to limit your options so you never experience the truth...02:22
AcornAcornI can't get sound to work with any media player on my ubuntu installation, can anyone help me work out why?02:22
kkathmanMatt12,  dont give up so quickly :)02:22
Terabytematt12 take a look at this also, http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/Installing-GRUB-natively.html02:23
tj83Matt12.. you jumped the gun... dont get into the deep end right away... its ok to wade the kiddie pool for a little while.02:23
zcat[1]tj83: you imply that windows is actually easy. My experience it's much harder, it's just that people are used to Windows and Linux is different02:23
Terabytematt12, follow that to reinstall grub, booting into vista shouldn't be too hard, sadly I don't have the commands here,.02:23
jack_sprattKakura: your kidding! if sis only worked in win i wouldnt be a linux user most likely02:23
Matt12terabyte thanks, I'll check that out02:24

The problem is that i only get 60 kb/s download, though the device is capable to get up to 4 mbit. it's not the signal as i've tried this in a place with stronger signal and get the same results. can anyone help?02:24
jack_sprattKakura: you mean for that chipset only there are win drivers??02:24
tj83zcat[1] perhaps easy is the wrong word "user-friendly" is more appropriate.02:24

Matt12I just want the option of keying down to the "indows Longhorn etc." option and hitting enter.02:25
zcat[1]tj83: the word you're looking for is 'user-familiar' -- because it's been almost universal for years, people just aren't familiar with anything but windows. Ubuntu bug #102:25
Terabytematt12, personally I prefer windows too, but ubuntu just makes remote administration of my 'grans' computer so much easier, and frankly my uni course is based around it, horses for courses, and it's a total pain in the arse to find out your wireless, graphics, wired network drivers don't work.02:25

langleyoUplink: are you using a laptop?02:26
jack_sprattKakura: look i dont really know about installing sis vdrivers in buntu. however in other distros its very easy so i assume it is in buntu here, but I cant tell you how. ask the others or forum trawl i guess. alternatively if you have an old video card lieing about use that instead. you can get one for $5 if you like; doesnt have to be good, but its a quick fix02:26

TBotNikUplink: I do not know how to get the attention of the kernal builder, but by now the AC97 codec should be in the kernal releases.  You figure out how to get their attention and a bunch of us will put in our two cents, on it so they'll make it a priority for next release.  Oh don't forget to advertise it here and on forums if you get their attention, so we can all chime in.02:34
zcat[1]Malik_: yeah, it will be in the apt cache on the computer you already installed it on.. put it in the same palce on the other one and then 'install' it the same way, it will see it already has the package and won't need to download it.02:34

TBotNikzcat[1]: Did you go through a manual "mount" of the device?02:39
LimCoreJunkie: the driver for i915 is called i81002:39
zcat[1]TBotNik: How? It's USB serial not USB Storage...02:39

fiXXXerMetPalomides: Yes - mount the iso file and then open the directory (with say VLC player)02:40
zcat[1]TBotNik: it's supposed to show up as a serial port and when you open the port it's dumping GPS data... it's not a USB Mass-storage device, it's a USB serial port.02:41

JunkieLimCore: is it dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?02:41
TBotNikzcat[1]: I think the command you need in {mount /dev/ttyUSB0 /mnt/newdevname} which should then let you tty to the device02:41
halloween_That is how you mount an iso.02:41

salimfadhleyor does it not matter?02:57
STSXgrubdub: OK, so you installed ubuntu32 and ubuntu64 on different partitions, and installed grub on both of them too?02:57
salimfadhleyFor example if I sat the block-size to 1Mb02:57
JunkieAaronH: thanks, i got it...02:57
grubdubSTSX: yeah, I sorta did.02:57
n3urogodsalimfadhley, it would be much quicker to replicate the partition schema and then just copy the files to each partition02:57
grubdubbut I'm not sure if I pointed it to the right partitions02:57
salimfadhleyI really want an exact duplicate02:58
STSXgrubdub: OK, so what do you get when you try to boot up?02:58

Jangariyes, what does that mean, Starnestommy?03:00
STSXgrubdub: You first need to figure out which partition has control of the MBR, so you can then edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst and get both partitions listed on bootup.03:01
tj83Kakura... a look around google shows that there isnt any support for your card at this time... atleast from what i have found03:01

Jangarioh, another question, my menu.lst appears to have three entries for 8.04, for some reason. What's the command to fix the menu.lst03:02
Jangari?03:02
STSXgrubdub: I know there's an easy way to determine that from the Grub shell, but I don't know the commands. So what I would do is just edit the menu.lst on one of your partitions, and if it changes the boot menu, you know that's the one. Otherwise change the other.03:02
Jangarithanks Starnestommy, that about answers my question03:02
StarnestommyJangari: you need to manually edit it03:03

wormzHey. My new laptop is a ntel(R) Core(TM) 2 Duo Processor T9300 with 4G of ram, to use all that ram I need to run 64 bit linux or use pae kernel (which never worked). What does anyone recommend???03:14

Ahadielwormz, I'd recommend 64-bit.03:14
tempesttj83 no i havenot because I'm not certain how to do that,  ive only used kubuntu a month03:14
Malik_it didn't work03:15
wormzAhadiel: Though I assume the Intel(R) Core(TM) 2 Duo Processor T9300 is 32 bit, does that cause a problem?03:15
Malik_can some1 help me out here03:15
mythomaniacSTSX: firestarter is located in /usr/sbin/ and also /usr/share... so...03:15
peternixglitsj16: it's integrated on the motherboard03:15
Ahadielwormz, The Core 2 Duo can support both 64 and 32-bit OSes.03:15
Flannelwormz: No, it's 64bit.  Well, it can be either, I suppoes that's a better way to put it03:15
Lynettempest: You probably need to lspci or hwinfo or look through the xorg log to find the bus-ID of the add-on card. Then add that busid to the device section of the xorg.conf file.03:15
wormzOw, sweet action03:15
DILi need help using chroot if i boot with a knoppix cd how dow i access my drives03:15
peternixthe motherboard manual claims it is ... "Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 3100 integrated"03:15
STSXmythomaniac: type "which firestarter" and what's the output?03:15
Jalathanwormz: just check to see if what you need to run does so under 64 bit03:15
tj83tempest ... save a copy of xorg.conf as xorg.conf.old so you can revert back if x doesnt boot... you will have to use a terminal editor like nano in the event it doesnt boot back... use "lspci" to get the bus ID.. you would have to find out what driver for your card.. id dont know... I use ATI03:16
peternixseems that ubuntu has not detected it properly?03:16
jadewolfif you update the /etc/modules file, do you have to reboot to have system see the changes?03:16
wormzJalathan: In terms of Ubuntu stuff you mean? (I usually run Fedora which I had no problems using 64bit)03:16

glitsj16peternix: i'm unfamilair with intel cards i'm afraid, don't know whether hardy has any other drivers for your card sorry03:17
STSXmythomaniac: Then that should be the one you want... if you type "sudo -k" and then "sudo firestarter", does it ask for a password or not?03:17
tj83yes... just replace "Driver value" with your nvidia driver name and put the bus id from the lspci output in its value03:17

Gaming4JCSpeaking of VirtualBox, I plan to install it once I get the new distro. I have 2GB Memory, AMD 64 processor, and a SATA-II, but what I'm wondering is if it will work, can you install things into the guest OS? (Such as swapping files back and forth from host to guest os)04:22
cellofellowwers: it ran sort of slowly, like everything else on that computer. Made it imposible to run Firefox.04:22
werscellofellow, that's what i'm talking about04:22
cellofellowGaming4JC: yes, there's a Shared Folders feature for sharing files from guest to host.04:22

frsandstone77the ntfs package isnt there04:46
Gaming4JCFlannel: So how would I update Hoary for exmaple with a new CD?04:46
tj83m_newton... got him straight.04:46
Gaming4JC(probably do a clean install, but just so I'll know)04:47
tj83m_newton... he is dual booting now.04:47
cellofellowGaming4JC: download or buy or borrow a Breezy CD and upgrade from it.04:47
m_newtontj83 with ubuntu?04:47
xocitetech0007: I don't see that in your configuration.04:47
tech0007xocite: but the main question, is it normal to see other PC's not in the home network when using samba? i'm using wired connection04:47
s_spiffanyone? with any experience in ethernet cards, please help me resolve this issue : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5089364#post508936404:47
cellofellowGaming4JC: and then you can do the same with Dapper, and from there to Hardy.04:47
tj83m_newton.... yes vista/ubuntu.04:47
qosFlannel, last question: when i am installing a xserver on this machine. can i then use the GUI (update-manager)? would that solve my problem?04:47
m_newtontj83 how bout wubi, hardy is supported now. All in all better solution for a windows usr04:48
jadewolfAnyone got experience setting up WinTV Go 878 with Ubuntu? I can get video with tvtime and xawtv but no audio, any help would be greatly apperciated04:48
Gaming4JCcellowfellow: So I just pop in the CD and it upgrades? O_o (doubt it's that easy)04:48
PCcertifiedLooks like I now have to buy, yet another, webcam to try with linux.   Any suggestions on a list I can use to crosscheck the models that work with linux.04:49
Flannelqos: That could solve your problem, it wouldn't necessarily.  But, once you've upgraded to Hardy, your problem will be moot.04:49
Xecuters_spiff, do you have to internet connections?04:49
Xecutertwo*04:49
tj83m_newton.... i personally dont have any experience with wubi... and personally... i got rid of windows for a reason... so dont really care to explore it at this time..04:49

LeefmcWhere can one download git? I was essentially told that any program worth its weight, can be installed from the package manager. Yet, i cannot find Git. Surely Git is WELL worth its weight.. so whats the deal?04:50
s_spiffXecuter: nopes. one is for the internet connection.. the other is only for LAN04:50
frsandstone77can someone help me, the NTFS configuation is not available from add/remove applications menu04:50
Xecuters_spiff, oh okey, let me just read throug your post...04:50

m_newtontj83 ya. try vista home premium with 1 gb ram... :wild BlackSOD (automatic restart) all day long04:51
Xecuters_spiff, 1. is your cable connected? :P lol04:51
PCcertifiedLeefmc: another way is... install the packages "git-core" & "git-gui" via package manager (Synaptic)04:51
blinghamMy PC came preloaded with Vista... I then cleaned the virus with Ubuntu :) *groans at his own lame joke*04:52
LeefmcStarnestommy, Ok, so pardon my ignorance. But why is git in there? If i go to add/remove, "git" is not found, nor is "git-core"04:52
s_spiffXecuter: hehe yeah it is. i tested the setup on XP anyways, worked fine there :(04:52
tj83m_newton , when i am not so poor... i want to build a nice desktop.. and then i will dual with vista... so for now... paperweight and as poor as i am it will be there for a while.04:52
StarnestommyLeefmc: because add/remove is just desktop stuff.04:52
frsandstone77i'm running ubuntu 8.04, and from what I understand, it comes with ntfs support.  How do i mount my drives?04:52
Xecuters_spiff, hehe, can you pastebin lshw -C networking ?04:52
StarnestommyLeefmc: System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager is everything04:52
s_spiffXecuter: okies.. hold on04:52
tj83m_newton i have home premium with 1gb also04:52
LeefmcStarnestommy, Ah! So, are they both "package managers" ?, but one is specialized towards desktop features?04:52
metalpresis hardy a recommended upgrade or is there really no benefit if you already have a properly working gutsy install?04:53
LeefmcStarnestommy, That would explain the bit of confusion i've been having between the two.04:53
Xecuters_spiff, sorry; lshw -C network04:53

Morph3usm_newton, thanks anyway.. i agree with you, killing ESD doesn't seem the solution05:19
m_newton<Morph3us>no prob05:19

holyguyverI did this before & it happened & then I had an update & after the update everything was fixed, but the update uninstalled the virtualbox modulas, so I reinstalled them & then this happened again, but updates are not fixing it as my machine is up to date :p05:21
Morph3usXecuter, and the video is showed perfectly but soundless05:21
holyguyverIt made it so that gstreamer cannot detect my soundcard, & that it will not detect my monitar type.05:21
m_newton<PCcertified>the one that comes with ubuntu not good enough?05:21
NTUhey Michael_05:21
XecuterMorph3us, oh ok, try killing pulseaudio05:21
holyguyver before I installed & reinstalled the virtualbox moduals it detected everything fine05:22
babolatwho was that guy helping me earlier with ntfs mounting ??05:22
m_newton<PCcertified>it is called system monitor05:22
blinghamm_newton, I did that.. but it just tells me that it's already removed.   I removed it with sudo apt-get remove edubuntu-desktop...05:22
Michael_hey do any of u guys know how to hack like facebook passwords? do any of you have any software for that?05:22
PCcertifiedm_newton: which one is that05:22
meltingclocko_O05:22
NTUlol05:22
holyguyverwe are talking about the OS that runs it05:22
holyguyver Althought it doesn't run it anymore as I uninstalled VB05:22
Morph3usXecuter, pulseaudio? this is safe? :S05:22

Michael_so none of you hackers have anything??05:23
XecuterMorph3us, yep, i do it myself, as pulseaudio resulted in totem not playing audio05:23
holyguyverI uninstalled & purged VB05:23
Ashfire908My computer doesn't want to do IPv6 autoconf, how do I enable it/make it work?05:23

XecuterMorph3us, np ;)05:24
Michael_wats the latest kernal for ubuntu05:24
Morph3usXecuter, but what happend with system sounds? other player sounds? i must kill pulseaudio anytime i want to use realplayer ? (many questions eh?)05:24
s_spiffXecuter: looks like i'm able to connect to the dc++ hubs.. but some issue. I'm still getting destination host ...05:24
bing_hi guys i keep getting i "dont have permission to save files or create user shares" how do i give myself permission05:25
ragsagaruse sudo05:25
XecuterMorph3us, other sounds should work fine, since they dont depend pulseaudio... i think pulseaudio is just crap05:25
ragsagarbing_, use sudo05:25
m_newton<blingham> try sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop05:25
xociteXecuter: alsa ftw05:25
blinghamOk ok, I get the picture ;) no more googles please... I was in the channel and figured I'd ask ;)  I'll google it next time lol05:25
leprihey hey05:25
leprii got a question05:25
Xecuterxocite, yes, but alsa isn't a sound-server:P05:25
blinghamm_newton, thanks, I'll see if that fixes things up :)05:25
Morph3usXecuter, hehehe.. i think same..05:25
bing_what do i type in sudo05:26
xociteXecuter: i know05:26
hegdenagaraj4hello everyone i m a new user of ubuntu !!! i have connected nokia 6233 to my computer but ubuntu is not detecting it !!!05:26
XecuterMorph3us, ubuntu is getting to big and sloppy i think, to much unneeded software... thats why im changing to arch ;)05:26
leprihow do you install drivers on ubuntu os? for the first time i want to try ubuntu so i need some help! anyone05:26
xociteI use Arch Xecuter /j #archlinux05:27
ak74ubing....u use sudo with any command that needs root priviledges05:27
blinghamm_newton, just FYI - trying to install ubuntu-desktop didn't work because it's already installed.. I'll just change them manually :)  Thanks for all of your help.05:27
NTUdoes anybody else have problems with gcc?05:27
NTUi cant compile anything!05:27
Morph3usXecuter, unneeded and untested software.. crash frequently (not enough tested software)05:27
m_newton<Xecuter> what is arch05:27
ubuntunew]can anyone give me a hand? i am unable to get on the net wirelessly or plugged into my router05:27
bing_tso if i write sudo05:27
Michael_wen will ubuntu 8.10 use gnome 2.23 or 2.2205:27
FlannelNTU: Have you install build-essential?05:27
Xecuterlepri, you dont need drivers in ubuntu (okey sometimes you do, but very rarely) as drivers are integraded in the kernel05:27
m_newton<blingham> when you say manually05:27
NTUyes05:27
Morph3usXecuter, why Arch? i never heard about that distro05:27
FlannelMichael_: 8.04 already uses 2.2205:28
Xecuterm_newton, arch linux is another distro, like ubuntu05:28
bing_sudo allow videofolder usershare05:28
Michael_thank you dear flannel05:28
fen[a]Xecuter: if you _really_ want something lean you could try lfs linux :)05:28
blinghamm_newton, Manually as in go and select the icons I want to use, and then change the splash screen.05:28
m_newton<blingham> i would try going into system > prefrence> apperiance05:28
leprithanx Xecuter05:28
asclepri: Typically, you don't. Linux supports most, but not all, hardware without having to install drivers.05:28
lepri:) yup05:28
XecuterMorph3us, arch is a distro that one builds up from the ground, its much thinner, runs faster and better, but its also harder to setup and such05:28
m_newton<blingham> oh05:28
Xecuterlepri, np ;)05:28
lepriis it better for me as a first time user to use dual-boot! untill i get used before i crash everything!05:29
blinghamm_newton, yea.. that's what i'm going to do.. I just thought there would be a setting where something is still pointing to edubuntu even though I've removed it, and that I could just change it...05:29
ak74uwhat are u trying to do?05:29
ragsagarbing_, tell me what u want to do?05:29
ascOoh, you were being facetious.  Good boy. :)05:29
Morph3usXecuter, is like Gentoo ? :S05:29
frodubuntugood night everyone05:29
m_newton<blingham> If you want something awesome, try this sudo apt-get install ubutustudio-desktop05:29
Xecuterfen[a], hehe never heard of :P but i'm not using arch for the challenge, just because my computer is old and doesnt run ubuntu as good anymore05:29
peternixalright05:29
Michael_does ubuntu 8.04 support coreboot??05:29
peternixI have fixed my resolution back to what it should be05:29
m_newton<blingham> ammazing sounds and splash and all!05:30
peternixbut I am still having trouble with my video card05:30
XecuterMorph3us, no not actually, its a little easier, but is buildt around the same principal05:30
peternixeither I am not running the correct driver or it just can't support flightgear05:30
ascWhat package provides management for desktop effects these days?05:30
m_newton<Xecuter> why arch?05:30
bing_ragsagar:i want to allow net usershare on a video ive downloaded05:30
Xecuterasc, compiz05:30
lepriasc: is it better for me as a first time user to use dual-boot! untill i get used before i crash everything!05:30
peternixanyway I can tell if my videocard is too slow or if it's just not the right driver?05:30
Morph3usXecuter, compile everything?05:30
blinghamm_newton, ahhh I totally forgot about studio!  I used it for a while when I had a spot on my friend's internet radio station, and then totally forgot about it.  I'll do that instead, thanks!!05:30
FlannelMichael_: Coreboot is independat of OS05:30
peternixI feel that it should be fast enough05:30
Xecuterm_newton, as i said my computer is getting old, and i need a lighter os to run things better05:30
Michael_thanks again flannel05:30
Michael_.05:31
ascXecuter: Now how do I turn off these bloody wavey windows :p05:31
XecuterMorph3us, no arch has a package system like ubuntu, pacman05:31
m_newton<Xecuter> what are the key features for arch05:31
ascwithout disabling desktop effects05:31
PCcertifiedasc: compiz-fusion and Emerald are a nice combo and seems to work well05:31
m_newton<Xecuter> no g00le plz05:31
bing_or allow net usershare on all my media05:31
Starnestommy!ot05:31
ubot3#ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!05:31

frodubuntuI killed my main linux partition trying to clone my hard drive05:32
frodubuntuI tried to resize it first05:32
frodubuntuand I messed it up05:32
lepriXecuter- i asked something:(05:32
frodubuntuI can see the ntfs side05:32
SilentDishello, does anyone have any expirence with Firestarter and it's setup?  I have 1 machine connected via EVDO (USB to cellphone) works fine, and I SSH into that machine over Eth0 from a laptop and tunnel a few X apps over it (kopete and skype).  Problem is, once the 'net connection comes up, I can no longer connect to the main box due to firestarter's setup.  Can someone tell me how to get this setup right?05:32
lepri:)05:32
frodubuntubut I cant see my linux side05:32
Flannelasc: System > Preference > Appearance, then Visual Effects tab05:32
ascXecuter: I have no such menu option.05:32
Xecuterm_newton, well i havent used arch that long, but the principal its buildt around is KISS (Keep it simple, stupid), that means there no extra unneede software and such05:33
Xecuterlepri, what?05:33
lepriis it better for me as a first time user to use dual-boot! untill i get used before i crash everything!05:33
Xecuterasc, hmm running ubuntu 8.04?05:33
jaekcan you change the media player that launches when you plug in your ipod?05:33
ascHere, let's try this again. I would like to configure visual effects. I don't want to turn them off, but I would like to, for example, disable wavey windows and configure keys05:33
Xecuterlepri, hehe yes it might be... the transision from windows can  be difficult...05:34
Jack_Sparrowlepri Not a bad idea.. I ahve dual-b for years05:34
Flannelasc: Alright, Youll need to install either simple-ccsm or compizconfig-settings-manager, the latter is more advanced.05:34
lepriaham, i see thanks :)05:34
Michael_what package do i need to install to compile my custom kernel??05:34
m_newtona05:34
Xecuterasc, oh ok, then install compiz config manager, there you can disable wobly windows...05:34
Flannel!kernel | Michael_05:34
ubot3Michael_: The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages05:34

m_newton<SilentDis> why do you have firestarter05:35
ascAha. Thank you very much; that is what I was looking for.05:35
ak74uasc: compiz manager lets u tweak every aspect of ur gui.....is a great tool05:35
Vlad1975hi guys. anyone can suggest a good mmo game that i can download and install in ubuntu?05:35
sunbird怎么没人说中文05:35
m_newton<SilentDis> ubuntu hardy already has an inbuilt firewall05:35
Jack_Sparrow!firewall05:36
ubot3Ubuntu, 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).05:36
lepriso i think i will give a try with ubuntu, and wish me luck, by the way, dont get tired of me if i come up again with questions:):)05:36
Starnestommym_newton: but firestarter provides a GUI to manage it with05:36
SilentDism_newton: i've noticed a few odd log entries since i've started it.  I assume it's just something poking away at me, including a few log for attempts at root on SSH.  I'd like to restrict SSH access completely from the WAN side, and keep it just on the LAN side05:36
frodubuntucan somebody help me determine the block number on a ubuntu partition_05:36
frodubuntu?05:36
frodubuntuI can't access it05:36
frodubuntuI was trying to recover it05:37
ak74uVlad1975: i dont know about mmo for ubuntu, but i i do now that Cedega(runs over Wine) lets u play Windows based games....05:37
Jack_Sparrowfrodubuntu Block number or uuid05:37
frodubuntuthe hard drive is healthy05:37
frodubuntuJack_Sparrow: thanks for responding first of all05:37
frodubuntuthe thing is that my ubuntu partition was damaged in trying to resize my ntfs partition05:37
metalpresdid hardy change the way is uses network sharing?  i could share files with my xbox in gutsy using about 2 clicks,  ive tried everything i can think of in hardy and i cant get my xbox to work at all05:37
SilentDisVlad1975: I know Second Life runs natively under linux, as does A Tale In The Desert.  World of Warcraft works GREAT with wine as well, just gotta add -opengl flag to it's startup05:38
m_newton<SilentDis> sry cant help you, interested to know where you find these logs though05:38
Xecutermetalpres, no i can share things in two clicks in hardy as well...05:38
Vlad1975do i just type -opengl in terminal/05:38
Vlad1975?05:38
frodubuntuso when I try to run a e2fsck I get Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/sda505:38
frodubuntuThe superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext205:38
frodubuntufilesystem.  If the device is valid and it really contains an ext205:38
frodubuntufilesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock05:38
frodubuntuis corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:05:38

metalpresXecuter: i can turn sharing on but my xbox wont see the ubuntu box when running hardy, it sees it right away with gutsy05:39
frodubuntuI mean wird05:39
Starnestommyfrodubuntu: is it ext2 or ext3?05:39
frodubuntuwhatever ubuntu 8.04 uses for default05:39
osmosiswhat is an 'interrupt' ?05:39
Jack_Sparrowfrodubuntu Did you try running livecd and gparted etc05:39
SilentDism_newton: Firestarter logs that stuff.  Plus, you can see SSH logs... let me remember where...05:39
Xecutermetalpres, flashed xbox? or xbox 360?05:40
frodubuntuit is weird because now for ex. I'm running off my live cd05:40

frodubuntuthat is what fdisk shows when I list it05:41
SilentDism_newton: should show you all the login attempts including CRON and such05:41
Xecutermetalpres, have you enabled anonymous sharing, or do you log in?05:41
SiliconViperI'm currently considering either Liferea or Straw for a desktop RSS aggregator. Does anyone have any experiences with either that they feel would be worth sharing?05:41
StarnestommyVlad1975: -opengl is an option used with World of Warcraft in WINE to make it use OpenGL instead of Direct3D05:41
bing_but i can uper the file when i click save it save no permission , how can i write in terminal to save a window already open05:42
frodubuntuJack_Sparrow: I've been googling about it but I can't seem to find too much to help05:42
Vlad1975oh i see05:42
Jack_Sparrowfrodubuntu Partition recovery is always tricky05:42
SilentDisSiliconViper: I used Liferea until i switched to Kubuntu, then i just started using Akregigator05:42
frodubuntuyeah,05:42
frodubuntuI suppose that is why they stress so much data backup05:43
SilentDisSiliconViper: Liferea was very easy to use and did an excellent job.05:43
Jack_Sparrowfrodubuntu ONe sec while I re-read your problem05:43
chlorateWhere are my installed files located on ubuntu? Like where can I see these folders?05:43
Vlad1975So its safe to say that if i purchase any games i have to check that it has an open GL option available or it runs on linux05:43
Starnestommychlorate: it depends on the package installed.05:43
frodubuntuJack_Sparrow: np, and really, thank you05:43
Xecuterbing_, you cant, you must open the file as root and then save05:43
hchufenghello ,does any one who can help me ?My chm documents can't read!05:43
Starnestommychlorate: to find out which files a package has installed, use dpkg -L <package-name>05:43
chlorateStarnestommy: Let's say if I installed azureus, where would it be?05:43
SiliconViperSilentDis, thank you. Ease of use is always a good thing. Do you know how it copes with large numbers of feeds?05:43
coagentCan anyone help me with DDNS?05:44
imaginativeonehey everyone...05:44
astro76hchufeng: install gnochm05:44
SilentDisVlad1975: 99% of OpenGL games work great under linux.  80% of DirectX 7 and older games work fine as well.  After DX7, you need a shim like Cedega to get it going well.  I know SWG worked fine under Cedega, if that helps.05:44
StarnestommyVlad1975: check for a linux version, or check in http://appdb.winehq.org/05:44
Jack_Sparrowfrodubuntu can you manually mount that ext305:44
Xecuterhchufeng, gnochm05:44
hchufengastro76 just do it last night ,but it can't support chinese05:44
RayvisI have been having trouble getting my microphone to work in Ubuntu 8.04. I've follwed various giudes to fix it but nothing works. I've also noticed that I don't have options in volume control other users have, and I've checked all the boxes to have them all. Anyone have any advice?05:45
Vlad1975thanx05:45
frodubuntuJack_Sparrow: I've tryed05:45
SiliconVipercoagent, DDNS? Whatcha need?05:45
frodubuntubut it doesn't seem to work05:45
astro76hchufeng: maybe they could help you in #ubuntu-cn05:45
imaginativeonewould someone help me with k9copy on wine?05:45
SilentDisSiliconViper: I was running in the neighborhood of 30 feeds through it, same with Akrigator.  Not sure what you're looking at... but I do expire after 2 weeks, and save only older stuff marked as important.  I remember it got a bit slow when i was saving those 30 feeds for 2 months.05:45
coagentI have it working with forward maps but the rev maps are broken05:45
Morph3usXecuter, pacman is as good as aptitude05:46
Morph3usXecuter, ?05:46
Jack_Sparrowsudo mkdir /media/dsb5                sudo mount /dev/sdb5 /media/sdb5           right05:46
hchufengastro76 they told me to use kchmviewer but it can't support chm very well.05:46
XecuterMorph3us, yea allmost, apt is the best around, but pacman is good05:46
coagentBy the way I am trying to do DDNS between dhcpd and bind9 not ddns for a internet domain name05:46
Jack_Sparrowimaginativeone k9copy is not for wine it ins native linux05:46
SiliconViperSilentDis, I read ~1200 items a month, spread across ~95 feeds. Do you think that would be a problem?05:47
SilentDisSiliconViper: the db would fill fast lol.  I'd say expire after a week and set it to save stuff you mark as important, and you should be fine :)05:47
twentyfiftyoneOk, a new question: Is there a way to grab a program into a separate x server? (I.E. from the root x server at :0 to a vnc server running at :1)05:47
SiliconViperSilentDis, herm. How exactly does the 'DB get full'? Just slow access times, or outright breaks?05:48
SilentDistwentyfiftyone: are you talking about moving a program running in 1 x session to another?  kinda like 'screen for x' type of thing?05:48
frodubuntuJack_Sparrow: well it mounts per say if I create say a folder called /ubuntu, \ then run05:48
=== the-stace is now known as stace
SilentDisSiliconViper: just slow, takes a while to page between articles, slow startup as it reads in the DB, etc.05:48
imaginativeoneoh! thanks05:48
frodubuntusudo mount -t ext3 -f /dev/sdb5 /ubuntu05:48
mohkohnHow can I share internet with my Ubuntu Hardy running iMac? I need something like this. http://www.macinstruct.com/node/11805:48

frodubuntuhahaha05:49

frodubuntuI would have too05:49
Jack_Sparrowfrodubuntu did you try it my way?05:49
frodubuntu:P05:49
twentyfiftyoneSilentDis: So I want to shunt it into a stable X server so I can save it, :P05:49
imaginativeonemy k9copy isn't finding my dvd writer05:49
mohkohnusing the same machine with OSX and XP internet sharing is easy so I think I must be missing something obvious.05:49
SilentDistwentyfiftyone: is that machine running VNC so you can at least get into it and safe close?  if not... I've not tried to retrieve 'dead' X windows, but i know you can't pull 'em over via SSH (i've tried, trust me lol)05:49
TazbobuMy smplayer is broken.. it plays audio but no video shows since update to newest distro05:49
mohkohna bit more info here05:49
SiliconViperSilentDis, I see. That could be a problem. I've marked ~400 articles as worth keeping in the last month.05:49
Jack_Sparrowimaginativeone Will it read and rip the dvd though05:49
twentyfiftyoneI've got access to the console, plus access to another machine on the network.05:50

XecuterRayvis, turned up the volume in volume manager?05:50
Jack_SparrowRayvis /join #alsa05:50
SilentDisSiliconViper: 400 is no problem, I think liferea started having issue when it hit about the 3000 mark or so.  I've noticed no slowdowns, myself, with akrigator, and nothing says you gotta run a gnome app... lol05:50
imaginativeoneJack Sparrow: perhaps, but how can it do that?05:50

gotamaHi! I've installed kdm and gdm. How can I know which of them is the current display manager? How to switch between them?05:51
frodubuntuJack_Sparrow: was your way to just create the folder and type  'mount /dev/hdb5 /mnt' or whatever place we are mount it to?05:51
Jack_Sparrowimaginativeone Reading is different that writing.. which is why I asked05:51
SiliconVipercoagent, sounds a bit more complicated than I'd be able to help with, sorry. For most cases like that, I just use ddclient.05:51
Jack_Sparrowsudo mkdir /media/dsb5                sudo mount /dev/sdb5 /media/sdb5           right05:51

ericinstalling ubuntu-restricted-extras I now have java working in my 64bit browser (whoo hoo!) but I get an interesting problem when trying to play Jagex games. I am redirected to a page claiming no suitable place can be found to write cache files05:52
SiliconViperSilentDis, absolutely. I'm open to any RSS app, those were just the main ones I was considering.05:52
ericI found this peculiar, and it was not an issue in the 32 bit browser05:52
SilentDisSiliconViper: as of right now... message store on akgrigator for me is probably somewhere around 4000 lol05:52
frodubuntumount: you must specify the filesystem type05:52
frodubuntuJack_Sparrow: mount: I guet you must specify the filesystem type05:52
ericany sort of ideas on where java would try to put temporary cache files? or does firefox take responsibility of that?05:52
imaginativeoneJack Sparrow: ah.  no reading...don't know about writing (yet)05:52
Jack_Sparrowfrodubuntu INteresting it cant figure it out05:53
Jack_Sparrowfrodubuntu You are sure it is ext3 right?05:53
mohkohnI have update this to show /etc/network interfaces05:53
frodubuntuI'm not05:53
frodubuntuJack_Sparrow:  It is whatever ubuntu 8.04 creates05:53
SilentDisSiliconViper: so it won't look perfectly integrated.  akregator sure gets the job done for me.  I'd say try 2 or 3 of 'em for a week or so, and see which you like best.  I last ran gnome and liferea back in 6.06, i have to assume they've made strides in their handling of large message stores :)05:53
frodubuntuthe story is that I was trying to clone my hd05:54
Jack_Sparrowfrodubuntu If it is default then ext305:54
hchufenghow to share my document with windows user ,the sabam has been installed05:54
frodubuntuyeah well that is what I thought05:54
Jack_Sparrowfrodubuntu in the future use dd command05:54
bing_omg that was easy just type sudo before the gedit thanks guys05:54
SiliconViperSilentDis, good stuff. That should scale well to what I'm looking for. I just don't want to start using something, have all my feeds in, good articles marked, etc, and then 4 months in find out that the app isn't scaling well, and there's no easy way to export my 'marked' articles.05:54
mohkohnBoth Vista and my ubuntu laptop can "see" the iMac (running hardy) and connect but no internet05:54
Jack_Sparrowfrodubuntu one more sec..  let me see how to force mount to ext305:54
frodubuntuJack_Sparrow: I was trying to clone my hd, so I set off to clone it and I realized that the hard drive was just 1 gig over the dest, so I resized the ntfs, and that messed the ext305:55
SilentDisSiliconViper: totally understandable :)  sorry i don't have more info on how liferea is working now though.  As i said, in your case, i'd still try running a couple in paralell, just to be sure it'll work for your needs05:55
SiliconViperSilentDis, the only objection I have to using a Qt app is loading yet another library into memory. ;p A tiny concern, but no sense being wasteful if I don't gain a functional advantage.05:55
SilentDisSiliconViper: lol just like me.  2gb memory here, i'd rather see it go to disk cache when i can lol05:56
gotamaThe login screen is giving me a lot of problems. How can I change the login screen resolution?05:56
SiliconViperSilentDis, yeppers. It's not that I lack the resources, just that being wasteful is a bad habit to get into. ;p05:56
SilentDisSiliconViper: totally agreed :)  I'd like to try to trim my MP3 files for the same reason lol05:57
m-cgotama: you know you can set it to automatically log you in, with no login screen05:57
Jack_Sparrowfrodubuntu I am going to take a shot and try this..sudo mkdir /media/sdb5     then sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/sdb5 /media/sdb5 -o force05:57
gotamaI have several users in the same pc.05:58
mohkohnIs there anything in the Network Administration tool in System > Administration that I am missing that allows internet sharing?05:58
Frogzoomohkohn: nope, learn to use iptables, it's not straightforward, but google for howtos05:59
samuelHas anyone used Adobe Photoshop CS2 with wine? I heard that all the games with Game Guard doesn't work on it because game guard is installed like a driver, so I'm kinda questioning adobe.05:59
Nikunj93how to uninstall ubuntu and change ext3 to NTFs05:59

FlannelNikunj93: Just take your favorite partition editor in windows and reformat your ubuntu partitions06:00
Jack_SparrowNikunj93 no need, just format with your windows tools to ntfs06:00

XecuterZack1403, do you have a firewall?06:00
Nikunj93which tool to use?06:00
Jack_Sparrowfrodubuntu Sorry buddy...  you may be out of luck06:00
Zack1403Xecuter: nope06:00
Nikunj93do i have to do it through windows xp loaded?06:00
frodubuntuJack_Sparrow:  missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail  or so06:00
Zack1403Xecuter: at least no custom one06:00
XecuterZack1403, then what port do you need to open?06:00
radius_i need help, when i go to youtube on firefox the videos wont play...id really like to fix this, im running ubuntu ultimate 1.8 x6406:00
SilentDistwentyfiftyone: not that i know of.  you'd be looking to revive a dead x windows app, but i have no idea how to do it :(06:01
FlannelNikunj93: Not if you have like a Partition Manager CD06:01
FlannelNikunj93: er, Partition Magic06:01
Jack_SparrowNikunj93 no, you can run gparted livecd or gparted on the ubuntu livecd06:01
frodubuntuJack_Sparrow: well friend, thanks for your help, I think I found something while googling06:01
mac_<SilentDis> did you get answer on firestarter06:01
Zack1403Xecuter: smtp port06:01
frodubuntuit is something about "TestDisk"06:01
Jack_Sparrowfrodubuntu good luck06:01
Zack1403Xecuter: which is 2506:01
SilentDismac_: no, not really.  i keep looking through the options, but i must be missing something.06:01
frodubuntuJack_Sparrow: I think I'll check it out06:01
frodubuntuchanel thank you all, I'll be distracted for a bit, but I'll let you know the results06:02
=== mac_ is now known as m__newton
Nikunj93how can i use the GPARTED? using the live cd?06:02
XecuterZack1403, are you running a server on that port?06:02
Zack1403Xecuter: telnet localhost 25 gets refused so i know its not open06:02
m__newtonsomeone took m_newton... why?06:02
twentyfiftyoneSilentDis: Well, X is still running, sort of. It's only half-crashed. :) Thanks for your help, though.06:02
SilentDismac_: my temporary solution is just to pull down firestarter when i wanna use chat over on the lappy.  not ideal. :P06:02
Zack1403Xecuter: an app im developing is looking to06:02
m__newton<SilentDis> when i close the window of firestarter , does it stop working??06:03
Jack_SparrowNikunj93 system..admin.. partition editor06:03
SilentDistwentyfiftyone: yep.  I've got a ton of windows up, or i'd google for ya, i'd say search for 'reviving dead x windows application' and you might turn up something06:03
XecuterZack1403, if the server is running correctly you dont have to open any ports06:03
Jack_Sparrowm__newton no the tables are still in place06:03
XecuterZack1403, i think :P06:03
Nikunj93thanks jack06:03
Jack_Sparrownp06:03
Zack1403Xecuter: well i guess I ended up on that issue because java is throwing a permission denied error when the server is trying to start06:03
twentyfiftyoneSilentDis: I'm exploring other avenues. :) Worst case, I lose an hours work and a semi-nifty gimped image.06:04
XecuterZack1403, sudo?06:04
m__newton<Jack_Sparrow> then why does the icon on the taskbar go away?06:04
XecuterZack1403, run nmap at yourself...06:04
Zack1403Xecuter: I would really like to not have test code running as root06:04
Zack1403ill try06:04
XecuterZack1403, hehe06:05
SilentDism__newton: here's how it goes.  I have firestarter stopped right now.  I can ssh in, tunnel my xwindows over, etc. now, lets say EVDO goes down (it hapens) and i restart it, firestarter comes back on automatically, and cuts off SSH access.06:05
XecuterZack1403, if the server is running correctly you don't have to open any ports... i never have...06:05
Zack1403yea just ipp, mysql and http-proxy06:06
m__newtonwhat is EVDO?06:06
Nikunj93jack_sparrow: in gparted when i click on delete partition it says Please unmount any logical partitions having a number higher than 606:06
m__newton<SilentDis> what is EVDO06:06
the_makntfs is not mounting automatic...every time i have to mount it manually...please tell me how to make it so that it mount ntfs automatic when i boot.06:06

jacob5Zack1403: We can chat in windows messenger using our corporate email id right ?06:09
XecuterZack1403, no im afraid im not much help... since i dont know java... but i should think that if a server is running correctly, then the port should be open...06:09
jacob5I am asking we can do that in pidgin06:09

m__newtonQueston to all: Is there a way to run TOR/Vidalia on Hardy Heron???06:10
Zack1403Xecuter: hmm actually a key troubleshooting step i missed is actually trying to run it as sudo06:10
SilentDism__newton: I will recommend Alltel as your service, and get a Motorola Razr V3m phone.  works GREAT, linux detected it without issue right out of box :)06:10
Nikunj93frodubuntu: yes he has left06:10
Zack1403Xecuter: one sec :)06:10

m__newton<jacob5> how?06:10

raghavdo u know how to remove unused services at startup06:14
Zack1403Xecuter: yea that was definitly it, starting it up as root starts the server.  For obvious reasons this is pretty much impossible.  So do you know a way to allow users to open up the SMTP port?06:14
frodubuntucodecain isn't here either apparently06:15
frodubuntuman, I am sooo happy I was able to recover that linux part06:15
XecuterZack1403, no, and somehow i think its made not to allow users to do that... but if you search around you might find a solution...06:15

frodubuntuimaginativeone: state your issue06:21

amrikHi I have a fairly weak machine 1.6Ghz centrino with 1gig of RAM and I want to run ubuntu in a virtual machine. however its quite slow, is there any way to pare it down to make it faster?06:36
chris__420hmmmmmm well then i guess i really don't have anything to worry about then lol06:36
amrikflobbo: if you download 169.12 run package from nvidia it will offer to replace them for you again06:36
Starnestommysolid_liq: don't do that!06:36
flobboamrik: thanks dude. This is a nightmare, I thought new drivers were supposed to make it better and not totally screw up your system.06:37
amrikflobbo: they actually work better for me. =\ to each system their own i suppose. i hope you arent using glxgears to benchmark06:37
zachalinkusser: that didn't fix anything. not the sound, and not the pausing thing.06:38
flobboamrik: glxgears?06:38
amrikflobbo: its a simple program that tests to see if your opengl acceleration is working. some people think its a useful benchmark but its not06:39
flobboamrik: I can only dream of benchmarks, I am running 800x600 cuz my cards aren't being detected as well as my monitors and I can only get a decent resolution once I manually change the xorg.conf file to say nv instead of nvidia in the driver section.06:40
usserzachalink, hm that usually solves the issues, did u restart firefox, try killall pulseaudio && pulseaudio &06:40
usserzachalink, the pausing thing is because of the sound06:40
zachalinkoh06:40
zachalinkI'll try restarting Firefox.06:40

raghavhow to run the program fifa 07 i installed it in my documents in wine06:42
Carbonfluxflobbo, you can try using nvidia-settings or dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, the gui stuff is not detecting things correctly and can't be trusted right now.06:42

flobboamrik: 7900GTX and 8600 GTS. Worked great before I installed the new drivers.06:42
Guest86330and its running a way hi resolution06:43
Dr_willisGuest86330,  with nvidia cards. I configure twinview with the 2 nvidia config tools that are in the repos.06:43
flobboCarbonflux: dpkg-reconfigure doesn't do anything and nvidia-settings keeps telling me I am not using the nvidia driver.06:43
raghavpls help me06:43
amrikflobbo: alright good luck with the old drivers06:43
raghav??//////////06:43
Guest86330Dr_willis, what is twinview06:43
Starnestommyraghav: what happens when you run it from there?06:43
amrikraghav: cant you just run wine [location of executable]06:43
Carbonfluxflobbo, you have to use the nvidia driver for nvidia-settings to work clearly :)06:43
Dr_willisGuest86330, its a feature of the Nvidia Drivers that allow configuration of more then 1 monitor.06:44
werswhat do you prefer, virtualbox or vmware and why?06:44
amrikDr_willis: is TwinView necessary to have more than one monitor on nvidia cards?06:44
Dr_willisGuest86330,  the nvidia web site has a detailed readme on it.  It allows extra featrues over the xinerama06:44

Dr_willisamrik,  it allows better controll.06:44

Carbonfluxflobbo, I might have spelled it wrong, dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg is the right one06:44
Dr_willisamrik,  Twinview supercedes Xinerama i belive one can say.06:44

Carbonfluxflobbo, yes, most of the time the defaults work fine06:45
amrikwers: one costs money and the other doesnt. I use vmware because I got it for free from work06:45
usserwers, i prefer virtualbox, vmware is proprietary and it took them almost a month to get their stuff working on hardy kernel whilst virtualbox worked right away06:45

mojohello everyone, what do you think if we vote to remove obsolete pixmaps icons in /usr/share/pixmaps? Some geek developers argue they wont remove it simply because they love to use it even though somes are so so so outdated06:51
SirAlexanderI vote for a soda machine in every hallway.06:52
SiliconVipermojo, update them!06:52
wersusser, yeah. running the SE PC suite on windows would be the best idea.I'm going to install some tweaked windows XP "lite" designed for the EEE PC. would that work  well enough on my machine?06:52
SiliconVipermojo, are you proposing a per-pixmap vote, or a general vote?06:52
mojoit is VERY HARD to convince gnome-developers to remove those icons from gnome-desktop-data package, I think I will create a poll in the forums06:52
SiliconViperWhat benefit do we gain by removing them?06:53
SiliconViperLess files on disk?06:53
mojoyes06:53
mojoand make things more consistent06:53
SiliconViperAny other gains?06:53
SirAlexanderHow much room do they actually take up06:53
mojoaround 5MB06:53
AaronHmojo, its nice to have the variety, not like 5mb of icons hurts anyone....06:54
SiliconViperConsistency I'm a fan of. Files on disk, small but useful gain. I'm sure if you're meeting resistance from the devs, these trivial gains aren't going to be enough to swing the vote in favour of removal.06:54
mojothe pixmaps icons is used to be the icons for apps, now every apps ships their own icons in /usr/share/icons/hicolor06:54
mojoso there is no point keeping them06:54

SirAlexanderI've happened across a few zombies though that had no parent.  Well, okay, except perhaps for X, you could say X was the parent because restarting that did the trick, but it's a pain to have to restart X in those situations just to take care of a zombie.07:04

SiliconViperPriest, then the term you're looking for is 'clean', not 'empty'.07:16
alexbobpPriest: well, that's a matter of installed software.  Windows tends to get crapped up quickly, but I think that's more because of developers who think their app is so cool it HAS to be running all the time.  As much as I hate Windows, I don't think that's even Windows' fault.07:17

SiliconViperfrodubuntu, just remember: If someone asks something that YOU can help them with, please do. They'll appreciate it as much as you do, most of the time.07:20
SirAlexanderBasically, there's a bunch of Linux software out there.  Each distribution (Ubuntu, Fedora etc.) collects it all up and puts it together in their own special way, puts their stamp on it, and ship it out the door.07:20
alexbobpPriest: what's firefox doing on your tray?07:20
CyndreIm currently developing a course outline for ubuntu - and going to offer a complete computer package with ubuntu and 12 - 2 hour classes on how to use your computer oooooo07:20
SiliconViperalexbobp, beat me to it.07:20
satokunI'm getting a grub error 25.  I was able to reinstall grub but it had no effect.  Where should I go from here?  (Pastebin of my fdisk dump and menu.lst is at http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/16131, they look fine to me but they could be royally messed up and I probably couldn't tell)07:21
Priestalexbobp: My apologies again, i thought we were discussing the panel.07:21
PriestI am still relatively new to Ubuntu.07:21
moustichello07:21
frodubuntuSiliconViper: yeah, I do, I really believe in returning a micro portion of what I get with all of this07:21
alexbobpPriest: ah.  Mine is relatively empty, because I am so used to just typing the names of programs to run them.  So much more convenient than the dumb "start menu"07:21
SiliconVipermoustic, hello.07:21
frodubuntunot in just being a parasyte07:21
alexbobpI don't think parasite is the correct term.  The open source community generally embraces users who give nothing back.07:22
Priestalexbobp: I see.07:22
alexbobpIf we expected repayment, we'd sell software.07:22
JaymacFor the past two days I've been told I have 99 updates available, but then it tells me I have to run a partial upgrade, so I go ahead with that and it dies with an "Unresolvable error"07:22
moustici am unable to mount usbdevfs, do i need some special usb modules ? (with a gutsy default installation)07:22
JaymacIs this happening for anyone else?07:22
SirAlexanderYaris, the basic idea is that information and software should be free, and you should instead make money from the services that go along with them.07:22

yaris123456789where can i find programs to install for ubuntu...instant messenger, winamp, and those stuff ?07:23
Cyndrelike training and support07:23
FlannelJaymac: do you have a -proposed repo available?07:23
frodubuntualexbobp: I was referring to myself potentially being selfish and reluctant to give back07:23
JaymacFlannel: yeah07:23
Flannelyaris123456789: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto07:23
Starnestommyyaris123456789: I think pidgin is installed by default07:23
FlannelJaymac: remove it.  That's your problem.07:23
frodubuntuand expressing my wanting to avoid that07:23
alexbobpyaris123456789: this philosophy says that if software is free (as in freedom), then we can continue to make progress together, instead of continually trying to reinvent the wheel better than the other guy.07:23
yaris123456789okay07:23
elmargolyaris123456789, http://www.linuxalt.com/ <- a Windows 2 Linux software list07:24
yaris123456789Flannel: what is that ?07:24
SirAlexanderYaris, most of that is already installed.  Pidgin (IM client) is already installed.  Rhythmbox is already installed.  You can also find more programs by clicking on the Add / Remove icon on the menu.07:24
Flannelyaris123456789: search the repos (via synaptic is easy, check that link) for stuff.07:24
yaris123456789ok07:24
JaymacFlannel, what's wrong with it... is it broken at the moment?07:24

yaris123456789thank you everyone07:24
PriestIs there a way to tell terminal that I want to run each command with sudo until exit? Or do I need to type sudo each time?07:24
FlannelJaymac: -proposed stuff is not stable.  It is stuff that should be considered almost always "broken".  It hasn't been tested, etc.07:25
SirAlexanderPriest:  Type "sudo bash".  Then it's basically like you're root until you type "exit".07:25
JaymacFlannel: I know that, but it shouldn't crap out like this07:25
FlannelPriest: `sudo -i` will get you a shell.  Don't use it unless you need to.07:25
JaymacSirAlexander: sudo -i is better than sudo bash07:25
satokun*notes both sudo tricks himself*07:26
FlannelJaymac: -proposed is not fit for human consumption.  You can't expect it to not have dependency errors, since it may depend on stuff that will be updated, but haven't been yet, etc.07:26
SirAlexanderThere are more ways than those two too.07:26
PriestSirAlexander, Flannel: Thanks. I only need to do it for the next five commands, then I'll restart terminal. I know not to run it constantly. =P Not unless I want someone to kick me out of the loop.07:26
FlannelPriest: No need to restart, just "exit"07:26
frodubuntuhey SiliconViper is it possible to find out whether somebody is logged in with a certain ip?07:26
PriestFlannel: Ok, thanks. =D07:26
mousticSiliconViper: hello07:26
alexbobpSirAlexander: Better to recommend "sudo -s" then "sudo bash".  "sudo bash" will load root's profile, which will (among other things) prevent you from running X programs.07:26
yaris123456789btw how do i enable firewall in ubuntu ?07:27
Flannelalexbobp: Should use gksu (or kdesu) for graphical programs anyway07:27
perlmonkeygreetings07:27
AaronHalexbobp, I heard its better to recommend "sudo -i"07:27
SirAlexanderalexbobp:  There's some inherint safety in that though.  But he said the command line, so that's the direction I was going.07:27
In-Sane``how do i check my laptop for 3D acceleration? also, what is the command to show my cpu informatioms? thanks07:27
Flannel!firewall | yaris12345678907:27
ubot3yaris123456789: 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).07:27
satokunHow would I go about fixing a grub error 25 that happened after a reinstall of grub (which I did due to an error 15)?07:27
JaymacFlannel: I know that, but proposed is supposed to be a testbed before things are rolled out (example Firefox RC) - it's never been broken for longer than a couple of hours07:27
amirman84yaris: not sure i haven't bothered, but i know there is a builtin firewall in ubuntu, it must be under administration07:27
alexbobpSirAlexander: I'm wrong, "sudo bash" does work for X.  It was "sudo su" that doesn't.07:27
yaris123456789Flannel: oh ok that is sweet07:27
perlmonkeyhi Flannel, do you remember y'day I had problems installing Ubuntu on a new sys, and it would hang on the language section?07:27
{hydra}cat /proc/cpuinfo07:28
SirAlexanderalexbobp:  There's only about 50 different ways to do it :P07:28
yaris123456789one more thing. i have to use alt+tab each time to switch between programs...how can i make it show like minimized programs at the bottom ?07:28
SiliconViperalexbobp, but sudo su works from bash, for X.07:28
mousticsomebody can give some indications with problems to mount usbdevfs?07:28
FlannelJaymac: It's broken until the broken packages get fixed (or in this case, their depends get packaged).  AGain, its not meant for general consumption, so you shouldn't expect it to not be broken.07:28
Jaffarkelshaci just an ipod as a gift, what sofware works with in ubuntu and also there is no safely remve in ubuntu, how do you eject then?07:28
perlmonkeyFlannel: I eventually found out the cause of the problem.. it was the USB keyboard I was using.. switching to a PS/2 keyboard solved it07:28
Flannelperlmonkey: good to know07:29
amirman84yaris: right click on the panel and add a windows something07:29
SirAlexanderYaris, there should just be a regular minimize button on each window, and when you click it, it should minimize, and you should then be able to click its button on the task bar.07:29
amirman84i forget the name07:29
Darlok_Williams!svn07:29
ubot3svn is Subversion: an open-source revision control system, which aims to be a compelling replacement for CVS. See http://subversion.tigris.org/07:29
PriestJaffarkelshac: I use Amarok. To eject just right click on the iPod icon on your desktop and hit EJECT.07:29
perlmonkeyFlannel: ya, was just wondering if there is anywhere we could put that tip for others?07:29
amirman84yaris: "window list, or window selector" depending on preference07:29
JaymacFlannel: Of course I expect it to break.  In my experience even pre-release repos have been updated quicker :)07:29
Jaffarkelshacok, oh dont use amarok, i prefer banshee, i dont think it has ipod support PriceChild07:30
Darlok_WilliamsI'm trying to install a program available only via SVN.  I've already run 'svn co' and it appeared to have downloaded all the files... what is next?07:30

yaris123456789amirman84: i did right click but i do not see add a windows something07:30
alexbobpIn-Sane``: you can check your processor with "uname -p"07:30
Darlok_Williamsamrik: Okay... but where did it save the source files?07:30
FlannelJaymac: during alpha/etc it was the regular repos being broken, not side repos.  In theory no one uses proposed as a regular repo, and hiccups like that shouldn't affect anyone, as such, no hurry.07:30
SirAlexanderYaris, he means if you right-click on a panel, there should be an option "Add to Panel".07:31
alexbobpDarlok_Williams: if you're lucky (and most likely you are), you can cd into the directory in bash and type "./configure"07:31
amrikDarlok_Williams: wherever you checkout the svn07:31
alexbobpafter that, you can type "make" and then optionally "make install"07:31
PriestJaffarkelshac: I have not used banshee, but I can assure you that Amarok works perfectly well with my iPod. it even scrobbles my plays on last.fm when I plug it in.07:31
Darlok_Williamsamrik: Ah... found it, but there's no configure script.07:31

Flannel!checkinstall | Darlok_Williams07:31
bloodrocksatokun, did you edit your menulst flie07:31
ubot3Darlok_Williams: checkinstall is a wrapper to "make install", useful for installing programs you compiled. It will create a .deb package, which will be listed in the APT database and can be uninstalled like other packages. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CheckInstall - Read the warnings at the top and bottom of that web page, and DO NOT interrupt CheckInstall while it's running!07:31
yaris123456789ok im at the add items to the panel07:31
alexbobpDarlok_Williams: if there is no configure script, just try make07:31
amrikDarlok_Williams: I see, is there configure.ac? signs that automake could be used?07:31
Jaffarkelshacok, thanks Priest i will try it07:31
Darlok_Williamsalexbobp: Yep, tried that... lots of errors :)07:32
SirAlexanderYaris, you want the Window List item.  Scroll down until you find it, click on it, then click the Add button.07:32
Ahadiel_godkas, CTRL + ALT + Backspace restarts X07:32
alexbobpDarlok_Williams: see if you can find the first error message it prints.  That will probably be complaining about a missing .h file.  Then you can try to find what package you need to provide that header.07:32
satokunbloodrock:  I think an update edited my menu.lst actually.  There were two entries, completely identical for the same hardy install.  I trimmed one but it's still giving me the error.07:32
amirman84yaris123456789: right click on the panel in an empty space / then select "add to panel" / then select "window list"07:32
yaris123456789okay07:33
satokunbloodrock:  I have a pastebin of it if that'd help.07:33
SirAlexanderAlthough a Window List item should already be on the panel by default.  I don't know why it wouldn't be.07:33
amirman84yaris123456789: if you have any more questions feel free to PM me, i'm exiting this channel07:33
bloodrocksato i looked at your paste bin07:33
yaris123456789amirman okay07:33
satokunbloodrock:  Is there anything wrong with my menu.lst?  I'm thinking that has to be what's wrong, but I don't know how to fix it if it is.07:34
Ashfire908What partitoners come on the alternate/server cds?07:35

bloodrocksatokun,  or just the 8.0407:36
Ashfire908Livecds don't boot on this system.07:36
SirAlexanderThat's true, but Ashfire was asking about the server CD, so I'm guessing he doesn't have a GUI.  I don't know if gparted works on command line or not.07:36
Dr_willisSirAlexander,  that would be 'parted' :) or 'cfdisk' then07:37

bloodrocksato and 1 ver of 8.0407:42
JaffarkelshactheFATMAN: kernels are not space hoggers so you dont have to remove it, its good to have if something goes wrong or not work with new kernel, you comment it out in menu.lst07:42

amrikcan you do /home as a separate partition in the regular install cd or do you have to use alternate?07:46
Duttalexbobp: i did wat u said but it did not fix it..07:46

satokunbloodrock:  as of a week ago I was able to boot into all three installs each recognizing my /home properly.  It's not the least complex thing in the world but it worked fine.07:49
SirAlexanderIf you want the variable to stay set each time you reboot, you'll have to stick it in a script somewhere that gets loaded on boot.07:49
tsukasa_SirAlexander, like /etc/rc.local? export DISPLAY=:0?07:49
SirAlexanderDutt:  Yes.  Are you looking to install the Ubuntu provided drivers, or the drivers downloaded from nVidia?07:49
SirAlexandertsu, that should work fine.07:50
bloodrocksatokun,  did you check gparted to see if it shows drives in order to how you had each set to it's drive maybe drive order got changed?07:50

Dutt(my screen turns off)07:51
SirAlexanderIf you want to install Ubuntu supplied drivers from the command line, you'll have to sudo apt-get install the right packages.  If you download the nVidia drivers, you'll have to install some dev packages (build-essential) and then compile the driver (actually the kernel interface) yourself.07:51
TiZ_Hi there. I'm trying to make my startup a little smoother. I'm trying to get Quod Libet and Thunderbird to appear at startup, both in the system tray.

raymondwell if i type find /boot/grub/menu.lst it returns that it cant be found so i think ur right07:55
SirAlexanderDutt:  I don't remember the exact names of the Ubuntu nVidia packages.  You could try typing "sudo apt-get install nvidia" at the command line and see if it gives you any hints of package names.07:55

SirAlexanderTiz_:  You could always hack it by making a script that runs and sleeps for, oh, say, 15 seconds or so, and then loads kdocker for you.07:57
satokunbloodrock:  grub stage1 and stage2 are on the 8.04 drive.  if it couldn't read the drive it shouldn't be able to start grub and show me all three installs.07:57

Starnestommy_Master: does ./configure exist?07:58

bloodrocksatokun, it looks good to me and you said it all worked07:59
bloodrocksatokun, until update07:59
Bllzis it possible to have quotas on SMB shares, and how would I go about implementing this?07:59

redshadowheroDoes anyone know where I can find a halfway decent bash guide that's free? I want to be able to show my friends linux without worrying about them blowing up everything.08:00
SirAlexanderTiZ_:  If I was going to do such a thing myself, I would use Python.  There's a place you can stick scripts to make KDE run them automatically, something like ~/.kde/Autostart, something like that, but I don't quite remember.  It's been a long time since I've really used KDE>08:00

TiZ_And someone recommended it to me over alltray08:00
_Masterwhat do you mean Starnestommy?08:00
Starnestommy_Master: does the ./configure script exist?08:00
Bllzkley are you talking to me?08:01
_Masteri dont know?08:01
SirAlexanderTiZ_:  In that case, you can create an entry for the script in the Sessions window, and it'll load with Gnome.08:01
dgunnhello!08:01
Starnestommy_Master: run "ls | grep configure"08:01
satokunbloodrock:  I'll go check it one more time to be sure.08:01
bloodrocksatokun,  maybe try like editing or comment out all but first linux in the list and see if that does anything08:01
DaveKongIs there some way to disable the computer sounds? Like when you press a key too much and get this electronic noise?08:01
TiZ_Any old shell script? Or does it have to be Python?08:01
Bllzhow can I set up disk usage quotas on SMB shares?08:01
satokunbloodrock:  I'll comment them out and give it a shot.  It'll be a few minutes.08:02
SirAlexanderAnything executable, script, binary etc.  If you can get a shell script to sleep, then that'd work fine.  I personally don't know how, as I haven't played with shell scripts of that sort much.08:02

Starnestommy_Master: then ./configure does not exist08:02
* perlmonkey is drinking water flat out like a lizard08:02
_Masterhow do i make it exist then Starnestommy lol08:02
SirAlexanderTiZ_:  If Java is in your path, you could technically even make a little Java program to do it, but then of course you'd have the overhead of it loading the Java VM when Gnome loads.08:03
dgunnI'm hoping someone can help me,  I just updated to 8.04.  And now after every apt-get upgrade I get an error mentioning bastille.  I cannot even apt-get remove bastille or I get the same error over and over...08:03

InvaderAmotoremoteCTRL: did u try the recovery mode thing?08:39
BllzInvaderAmoto:  the ok box is grayed out until i type something08:39
remoteCTRLBllz: you need to login explicilta with that user otherwise you use your windows user;)08:40
InvaderAmotoBllz: then check to see what the domain is08:40
Bllzit says it's mapped using a different user name and password08:40
InvaderAmotoBllz: make sure its the same domain that your ubuntu computer is on08:40
remoteCTRLInvaderAmoto: gnome failsave works but that would be vesa not nvidia08:40
BllzInvaderAmoto... what does that mean? lol08:40
bloodrocksatokun, (hd1.0) point to the mbr partition hd1,1 would be the ext3 partiton08:40
remoteCTRLStarnestommy: how do i do that? mean the xorg.conf entry?08:40
InvaderAmotoremoteCTRL: whats gnome failsave? i mean in grub u can choose recovery mode or something like that08:41
BllzremoteCTRL:  not sure what you mean.  it prompts me for a username and pass... i give it the username/pass that i used to create it in ubuntu, and it's apparently not mapped to that user08:41
InvaderAmotoremoteCTRL: and then u can choose to fix xorg.conf08:41

remoteCTRLInvaderAmoto: yeah but as i repeatedly said now i have no need to fixy the xorg.conf as it does not represent the problem08:42
remoteCTRL;)08:42
InvaderAmotoBllz: if ur connecting to a ubuntu share from vista, it should ask for username password and domain (at least in XP it does) and make sure all of the things u put in there are the same things as your ubuntu machine08:43
StarnestommyremoteCTRL: what errors are printed when you run the command Xorg :1?08:43
BllzInvaderAmoto... what's a domain... is that like the server's name?08:43
remoteCTRLoh! says command not found08:43
Bllzlike ubuntu-desktop?08:43
InvaderAmotoremoteCTRL: i dont how you could be that positive about it being not xorg.conf's fault. your not telling me what you did to rule it out.08:44

ikoniaAshfire908: do you mean ssh09:09
ikoniaackbahr: you need the lirc package09:09
Ashfire908ikonia, ssh09:09
ackbahrikonia: got it09:09
ikoniaAshfire908: openssh-server is the package09:09
InvaderAmotoackbahr: for me it already works when i install ubuntu09:10
chunchun:(09:10
Bllzikonia:  i'm reading this off of the Permissions tab under Properties:  owner = root (folder access = create adn delete files)  group = root (folder access=create adn delete) Others=create and delete09:10
Ashfire908ikonia, it has the function but it itself does not allow it to work09:10
Bllzikonia:  is that filesystem level?09:10
ackbahrInvaderAmoto: Not for me.... What do you mean by "worked", and what config do you have?09:10
InvaderAmotoaskbahr: i have a tv tuner card that came with a remote. try using the remote urs came with (assuming your using a tv tuner card)09:10
Bllzikonia:  this is an NTFS filesystem under ubuntu if that matters...09:11
miz_bluegoblok09:11
Ashfire908ikonia, there's something in xbase-clients that provides the functionality.09:11
ikoniaBllz: ok, so root is the owner of that file system at the file system level09:11
chunchunit also says my monitor is undetected and i have to use generic..09:11
Bllzikonia:  yes09:11
ikoniaBllz: oooh your trying to share out an NTFS file system under linux09:11
chunchunalthought i'm sure that i'm 1280x800 widescreen..09:11
chunchunbut it still shows 800x600 after i configured it09:11
ikoniaBllz: that can get messy due to only read support without fuse09:11
InvaderAmotoackbahr: like if i press vol up the volume will go up and play plays things if totem is open09:11
InvaderAmotoackbahr: etc09:11
Bllzokay so i should format?09:11
Bllzis JFS okay?09:11
miz_bluewht09:11
miz_blueyahh09:12
ikoniaBllz: thats up to you, but I wouldn't share out NTFS file systems in anything else other than read only09:12
co_mauhay iiiikkkkk !!!09:12
miz_bluevgggv09:12
ackbahrInvaderAmoto: Ok, so worked from head to toe.... Well, it's not a TV card, it's a remote control that came with the laptop09:12
stevenhi, can anybody tell me how i can get my Lexmark X1290 all in one printer working09:12
Bllzikonia:  how come?09:12
kahrytanikonia,  Nothing at start up does it09:12
ikoniaBllz: what's wrong with the more common ext3 based file systems09:12
miz_blueoooon loe09:12
ikoniakahrytan: cron ?09:12
co_maumaksudte loh !!!!?????09:12
ikoniaBllz: because of the situation I've just explained about ntfs support09:12
co_maumasik jadian ma lisa t ???09:12
kahrytanikonia, How do i check that? Software Sources is no go09:12
chunchunHelp :(09:12
Bllzikonia:  ext3 is slower than jfs if i'm not mistaken.  then again this is a USB HDD so that will probably be the bottleneck.  You reccomend ext3 then?09:12
ikoniakahrytan: check your users crontab09:12
miz_bluepedekate bajunggak gante sudaseharian loe kagak mnde09:13
ikoniaBllz: your using samba.....the bottleneck will be the network stack interface to your remote disk.09:13
co_maumaksudte bacaanen ta chatq09:13
ikoniaBllz: worse if it's usb like you said09:13
kahrytanikonia,  Nothing.09:13
miz_bluepelupa09:13
ikoniakahrytan: ok, so in that case it must be when you have an application running09:13
InvaderAmotoi'll see everyone another time. I need to get some sleep. bye09:13
kahrytanikonia,  no crontab for root09:13
co_maunyoting!!! nyoto g penting !!109:13
chunchunHelp :(09:13
ikoniachunchun: stoppleases09:13
miz_bluegooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooolig09:14
kahrytanikonia,  It would have to be a app that has root access09:14
ikoniamiz_blue: stop that please09:14
ikoniakahrytan: yes, something you invoke with root permissions or part of the desktop09:14
Bllzikonia:  okay.  now the thing is i defaulted to that because i was having issues being allowed to create directories under ext3... i had to create the ntfs volume under windows (belive it or not)  i'll try again and then come back if I have problems09:14

ubot3envyng is an updated version of the *UNSUPPORTED* envy package. It is now part of the ubuntu universe repository (envyng-gtk OR envyng-qt) and has community support. As an early version, its results may vary but this should be used over the unsupported envy package.09:33
chunchuntried that, and i tried installing directly from nvidia.com and also from the ubuntu driver hardwares09:33

I put the live disc in and run it, the loading goes smooth, but once the loading has finished, all I get is green and teal vertical stripes flickering on my screen. The same applies if I try to install it directly, I also tried an non-amd64 version of 7.10, b09:36
[K4z3yu]ut the same problem persists.09:36
insertabledarrend: sometimes the screen will flicker for like 10 minutes at a time and i need to shutdown X09:37
ikoniaBllz: sure, you may want to look at the read= and write= options in the smb.conf file, as well as file ssytem permissions eg: everyone read only, but a specific group has read-write access09:37

thegeekI have a Windows partition and an Ubuntu partition and needed to do a clean re-install on the Windows partition.  So I did, and then used a recovery console to get GRUB re-installed and return to Ubuntu.  For some reason my video drivers and sound drivers have disappeared, even though the software is all still installed.  And who knows what else.  That's all I've found so far.  It's very strange.  Anyone know what could be wrong?  TIA09:37
darrendinsertable: could be a dodgy mouse spamming the xserver09:37

Slartchunchun: here's the supported cards for the latest nvidia driver... http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/173.14.05/README/appendix-a.html .. I don't see the 9300 Go anywhere on that list so I don't think it matter how many times you reinstall09:40
renegade444thegeek: hi again. I'd guess that you could disable then re-enable your video drivers to get them back, but I can't say I know why they got lost. Not sure about the audio drivers, but I'd again guess that the same uninstall/reinstall might fix it.09:40

gaurav_help!!for live cd i have to make data disc that will contain a single disc image file or a disc that contain contents of the image file???09:46
ikoniaBllz: ok - so you have to map the drive using the linux users name09:46
ikoniaBllz: I think there is an option in windows that says "connect as a different user"09:46
ikoniaBllz: that is your problem09:46
Starnestommygaurav_: a disc that contains the contents of the image file09:46

ikoniaBllz: that doesn't always work, you may have to use the "connect as a different user" option09:47
Dr_willisgaurav_,  if its a single .iso on the disk - you burnt it wrong. Use a tool like 'burn at once' for windows  that burns the IMAGE to the disk.   You do not 'open' the iso and  copy the files.. you 'burn the image' to the cd.09:47
Slartgaurav_: you'll have to burn the image to a cd.. not as a big file but burn the contents of the image to the cd09:47

ubot3It's the middle of the night in the US and Europe, and surrounds.  This means that a lot of people are likely asleep, therefore there are less potential people who can answer your question.  Please be patient, and consider asking at a time when more people will be awake.  This is particularly true in the quieter channels.09:48
Dr_willisgaurav_,  we are all saying the same thing. You Must burn the .iso file properly - whenyou do you will see lots of files on the cd. and it will be bootable.09:48

FlannelNegromancer: Yes, 7.10 is available, and yes, through update manager will work fine.09:49
gaurav_dr_willis:let me tru now thnx09:49
Flannelpowertoo108: You can't go straight from 7.04 to 8.0409:49
ikoniaBllz: try mounting it as a samba share on the linux box, you'll get better error output09:49
Dr_willisgaurav_,  if using windows  try the program 'burn at once'  or any of a dozen 'iso image burning tools' that exist for windows09:49
powertoo108Negromancer: oh, ya i guess you have to get gutsy if you go through the update managers09:50

ikoniaBllz: mount -t smbfs -o username=steve //server/share /mnt/point09:50
Dr_willisgaurav_,  then you should be able to just double click on the .iso under gnome I belive. and it will ask to burn it properly09:50
Bllzikonia:  i see that share under smb://home-server alreay09:50

joheyikonia: I see. However, I have a single core 2.2 GHz AMD 64bit cpu. When I copy a big file to an encrypted partition, the machine is quite unusable for other tasks at the same time. Though, according to top, only about 20-60% of the cpu is used. Can't it use the full power, or why is this?09:51

NegromancerDr_willis: I just told him a way :p09:58
thegeekDr_willis, renegade444, and Negromancer: Actually, my ultimate goal here is to figure out why the devil installing Windows on an entirely separate partition made my Ubuntu act screwy by disabling drivers and stuff....someone in #linux suggested maybe my old GRUB installation had some options that I'm missing now :P09:58
Dr_willisNegromancer,  so you are saying that disk will generate a proper menu.lst just like the ubuntu installer does?09:59

Dr_willisNegromancer,  adding an entry automatically for windows, and every linux install.09:59

jimcooncatc0mp13371331337: I believe so, though you have to specify the resolution on the vncserver11:26
Myrttimojo: \usepackage{listings}11:26
jimcooncatc0mp13371331337: the vncserver doesn't automatically adjust to the client's wishes11:26

renegade444So, I've been fighting my webcam all night, and I've finally gotten it mostly working using this driver and instructions: http://www.rastageeks.org/ov51x-jpeg/index.php/Ov51xJpegHackedInstall unfortunately, while it appears to have worked at every step, when I try to use camorama to look at it the video is divided into 3 vertical b&w images instead of 1 color image. Any ideas where I can go from here?11:34
[K4z3yu]orudie, I iwsh to dual boot11:34
[K4z3yu]or*11:34
niner64on the same machine and only happens with linux?11:34

renegade444Hi. I've been fighting my webcam all night, and after finding drivers, compiling them and getting them loaded, I find that this cam's still got issues. It appears to be some sort of video encoding problem. http://www.rastageeks.org/ov51x-jpeg/index.php/FAQ#My_webcam_image_is_green_under_kopete_for_KDE_3.5....3F.3F Anyway, my current question: Is there an alternative to Camorama that has robust video encoding selection so maybe I can get my c12:30
BeBoBliI have a small problem. I have an external drive and I mistakingly made it an NTFS. I was hoping I could convert it back to FAT32 or even to ext3 without having to reformat. Is this at all possible?12:30
new2linuxok, i'll try that12:30

soulhackerhristoVladev:get envy apt-get install envy12:32

lightconeI am using Hardy Heron. The apache web server is not working... I tried reinstali12:32
BeBoBliThen how would I be able to even move the files over anyways?\12:32

prince_jammysBeBoBli: just download that and boot off it12:33
soulhackerlightcone:/etc/init.d/apache2 start wat output??12:33
renegade444bebobli: you should be able to read the ntfs from linux and do the copying with linux after following their gparted instructions12:33
BeBoBliThanks. This will do perhaps... is it in a GUI or will I be digging around a terminal12:33

soulhackerlightcone:cool do nmap localhost paste its output in ubuntu pastebin and give me link12:35
BeBoBliDefinitely giving Ubuntu another shot if this is all true.12:35
BeBoBliThe external drive is unreadable on another ubuntu machine so that's why I'm converting it12:35
BeBoBliBut if you say that it can be read somehow I'll just format now.12:35
BeBoBliI mean format this laptop to use Ubuntu again.12:36
scifiguy951anyone know a good fileshareing program?12:36
niner64it's not gonna boot on NTFS thats for sure12:36

BeBoBlininer64, Yeah, but it's an external. It's just where I am throwing all my extra files on.12:37
niner64transmission (in ubuntu) azeruas12:37
renegade444bebobli: if you were willing to do significant command-line on the older ubuntu install, you could probably make ntfs-3g work on it and read/write the drive without any formatting or re-installing.12:38
niner64BeBoBLI: then you should be fine with the fuse driver12:38
scifiguy951????12:38
niner64ya 3g thats the one that writes well12:39

Agiontj83: and there ATI accelerated graphics driver? It lags very much with me.13:55
new2linuxrecon69: that's all, cool13:55
prince_jammysdimas869: if i were you, i would probably just reinstall and never install automatix again.  everything i've read about automatix says that it can cause serious damage to apt, and that it's not easy to undo.13:55
recon69Dasmoover: have you tried to boot to the cmd line?13:55
Crys_Danker: ifdown eht0; ifup eth013:55

Dasmooverno, i have not13:56
DankerCrys_: and?13:56
tj83Agion... be specific... what doesnt the ATI fglrx driver do for you? and have you looked at your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file to make sure everything is correct?13:56
Dasmooverim dont know what o do there13:56
Starnestommywelkin: check System > Administration > Software Sources and tell it to not use the CD13:56
Dasmooverive heard something about noacpi13:56
Crys_oh, you are the wrong guy, sorry13:56

Crys_Danker: ifdown eth0; ifup eth0 was for new2linux13:56
Dasmooverwheres that?13:56
recon69Dasmoover: well, when it starts booting hit "del" or "esc" you should get the boot menu, try boot to recovery mode13:57
Dasmooverthen what?13:57
tj83Dasmoover... I had alot of issues with freeze ups, screen black outs, and all out power down crashes.... I used the noapic tag and appended it to menu.list file in the grub folder.13:58

new2linuxno dhcpoffer receive... but, before this, the computer was able to connect to the internet13:58
Starnestommywelkin: close out of that, then run: sudo apt-get install build-essential13:59
new2linuxwhy now, it can't be connected anymore??13:59
tj83Dasmoover.... what recon69 says will get you with the noapic one time.. but not every boot... you must do it as i say for automatic boot witht he noapic tag.13:59
recon69Dasmoover: you should see the boot menu, pick recovery mode and see if it boots.13:59
ricanelitewhen i open up Kino and go to Perferences and then click on IEEE 1394 it says IEEE 1394 Subsystem is not responding The raw1394 module must be loaded, and you must have read and write access to /dev/raw139413:59

SlartBizzeh: you'd better check your logs.. you asked if there was an app, someone suggested you edit fstab using a text editor.. then you told us that last time you did that it hosed your system.. that's not a question.. if you have any questions about editing the fstab you can ask those and we will do our best to help you15:25
nonw46if my panel, "ubuntu menu", and everythign else other than xchat weren't frozen i'd look it up for ya15:25
kane77c_sokun, I'm not sure, but I'd say 6.015:25
mynymlJack_Sparrow: is there any thing left that would be annoying on 64bits? how about skype?15:26
mDemocritusBizzeh: make a backup of it - cp /etc/fstab /etc fstab.bck15:26
Jack_SparrowBizzeh You are told it took just a minute to restore your old fstab.. Did you bother to ask any questions about that15:26
mDemocritusBizzeh: then if you break it, you can just restore the backup15:26
nonw46can you all please stop fighting for a minute and give me a hand maybe?15:26
Bizzehwhen you have a broken fstab.. and cannot boot into text... then having a backup is useless15:26
TazamDemocritus: Both incomplete and not necessarily the best idea.15:26
kane77c_sokun, yup it's 6.015:26
nonw46what's ubuntu's equivalent of "restarting explorer.exe"?15:26
Jack_Sparrowmynyml I still use 32 so Im not the best source for answers on that15:26
mDemocritusTaza: why is that?15:26
mynymlJack_Sparrow: thanks15:26
Slartnonw46: pkill nautilus15:26
Tazanonw46: startx15:26
c_sokunhow can I check version of the package on the repository? I don't want to apt-get install if it not the version I want.15:27
kane77nonw46, killall gnome-panel15:27
Stroganoffhaha its not startx15:27
ompaulnonw46, log out an back in mi15:27
Jack_SparrowBizzeh Please ask your support related questions and avoid this discussion15:27
amenadoBizzeh-> have you have your coffee yet? drink a cup of joe, your nerves will chill a bit :P15:27
nonw46thanks all but i can't get a command prompt15:27
TazaStroganoff: It most decidedly is.15:27
Slartnonw46: I think it restarts by itself... you can just kill X too if you want that (Ctrl+Alt+Backspace)15:27
Chad2408mThe resolution of Ubuntu is horrible at 640x480.  I cant hardely see anything. I tried to follow all these tutorials about xorg.config and such but got nowhere.  Ubuntu has nothing written for 'Monitor' or 'Display' in the file.  I know all the things you need to configure a monitor (eg vertsync, and size) but I dont know what to do.  Whenever I try to do something I can never hit apply or ok wither because the resolution is15:27
Chad2408mtoo low.  Please help me I posted a problem at the ubuntu forums but got no help.  My driver should either be: Intel 82845G/GL/GE/PE/GV Graphics Controller or i810.  Can anyone tell me how to either manually configure a driver/monitor, or tell me how/where to download drivers for these cards.  any help is very appreciated. Thanks!15:27
nonw46BRB15:27
StroganoffTaza most people use a login manager..15:27
TazaStroganoff: So?15:27
nonw46wait, isn't ctrl+alt+backspace "reset to defaults"?15:27
TazaStroganoff: That's the closest equilevant of restarting explorer.exe if you ever need to start it.15:27
Starnestommynonw46: no, that's "restart X"15:28
mDemocritusTaza: i get that it's incomplete, but why is making a backup of fstab not a good idea?15:28
nonw46ah15:28
bazhangnonw46, that will restart xserver15:28
Sir_Fawnpugnonw46, ctrl-alt-bksp usually kills X15:28
StroganoffTaza i think you overrate explorer.exe :p15:28
c_sokunkane77: thanks15:28
mynymlDoes anyone know if there's still stuff that doesn't work as simply on hardy 64bits as it does on 32bits?15:28
mynymllike skype?15:28
TazamDemocritus: Making a backup of fstab is a good idea. Making one in /etc/ is not. And you need Knoppix to restore it.15:28
bazhangflash?15:28
ConstyXIVanyone know how to use a phone as a modem via bluetooth?15:28
mDemocritusTaza: ah good call15:28
Slartnonix4: it's a violent way of killing X.. only use if if you have to15:29
kane77mynyml, flash and skype work without any problems15:29
mynymlbazhang: according to the rumors, flash just works out of the box..15:29
TazamDemocritus: Or the Ubuntu LiveCD but that's, uh, just awful.15:29
SlartConstyXIV: I've done it using my laptop and mobile.. it's a bit weird but it works15:29
OsamaKHello! Is Firefox 3.0RC packaged on Ubuntu? If so, How to install it? I have no updates for firefox since version beta 5..15:29
mynymlkane77: thank you! anything else i should be careful about?15:29
mDemocritusBizzeh: so to amend my advice, cp /etc/fstab ~/fstab.bck15:29
ratpoisonhello, how can I review all the active connections on my pc and which program controls them?15:29
mDemocritusBizzeh: to make the backup15:29

Starnestommyratpoison: try sudo netstat -ap -A tcp15:29
darrendratpoison: sudo netstat -panlt15:29
Sir_Fawnpugratpoison, have you heard of a program called Ethereal? It's pretty useful when it comes to auditing connections15:29
Slartratpoison: netstat can give you some information.. usually to much information... but it's a start15:30
selocolSlart: so ctrl+alt+backspace is not the same thing as log out?15:30
Bizzehi changed my mind. this place is the worst help community i have ever been to15:30
Jack_SparrowmDemocritus check this  cp /etc/fstab ~/Desktop/fstab.$(date +%m-%d-%Y-%T)15:30
Chad2408mHello, can someone please help me?!?15:30
TerabyteHey, where can I find the hardy heron dsektop background for download?15:30
Starnestommyratpoison: but with "inet" not "tcp"15:30
Bizzehim switching back to gentoo15:30
Bizzehbye15:30
Slartselocol: nope.. it's more of a "yank the cord out of the wall"-way of logging out15:30
ratpoisonthnx guys for the wealth of info, I'll man netstat for more details15:30
TazaHe's switching back to Gentoo because Ubuntu is too difficult? :P15:30
Jack_SparrowSwitching to gentoo.. that will work15:30
kane77mynyml, hmm.. I can't think of anything right now.. the situation got better (I've been running 64-bit ubuntu for 3 years now)15:30
mDemocritusthat's hilarious15:30
etronikanybody help me create an initrd image ?? without it I have a dead system15:30
selocolSlart: oh my.. thanks, that's very helpful. i've been using it all the time as if it were logging out15:30
Chad2408mhello?15:30
Sir_FawnpugTaza, I'm a bit curious as to why his fstab would be so complex that he couldn't regenerate it by hand15:31
mynymlkane77: i guess its time i give it a try then. thanks15:31
TazaSir_Fawnpug: You, frankly, shouldn't be here.15:31
mDemocritusgentoo has its place... it taught me so much about linux during the THREE WEEKS it took me to get X running :D15:31
TazaSir_Fawnpug: Your skill level is WAY too high for users like that.15:31

Sir_FawnpugTaza, probably not, but if he's going to throw salt in the wound and whine about volunteers helping him15:31

selocolif i ctrl+alt+backspace and i get a black/blank screen with no login window and ctrl+alt+f4 or f7 both don't work, what key combination should i try? thanks15:32
smallfoot-????++++15:32
Sir_FawnpugTaza, well it's not something that I generally recommend to ubuntu users15:32
ratpoisoncan I use apt-get to just read the package description?15:32
jhasseHow can I change the "sans-serif" alias?15:33
Starnestommysmallfoot-: ubuntu isn't broken, but that GPG key is.  Try disabling the hardy-proposed repository15:33
kane77smallfoot-, there is no reason for SHOUTING15:33
TazaAnyway, I'm out. I have a lot of reading to do15:33
Jack_Sparrowsmallfoot- Running proposed ... in your sources for a particular reason ?15:33
Starnestommyratpoison: try aptitude show <package-name>15:33
smallfoot-ratpoison, "dpkg -l "compiz"" maybe15:33
smallfoot-Jack_Sparrow, yes i want new cool stuff on my computers15:33
kane77ratpoison, aptitude show packagename15:33
Jack_Sparrowsmallfoot- Asking for trouble...15:34
etronikmmm my help request ain't getting thru.. I wonder if I shout ;-)15:34
Slartsmallfoot-: new stuff isn't always cool15:34
smallfoot-Jack_Sparrow, but ubnutu is boring, i want cool stuff, like new compiz plugins15:34
Chad2408mMy questions is basicly: I need help with the Intel 82845G/GL/GE/PE/GV Graphics Controller or i810 driver.  Can anyone tell me how to either manually configure a driver/monitor, or tell me how/where to download drivers for these cards.  any help is very appreciated. My resolution is too low to do anything (640x480)15:34
Starnestommysmallfoot-: new stuff breaks faster15:34
mDemocritusselocol: try ctrl-alt-backspace, then hit f2 when the screen goes black15:34
Jack_Sparrowsmallfoot- I can give you a page of them if that is what you want..15:34
mDemocritusselocol: it might get you to a login15:34
smallfoot-Jack_Sparrow,  oh ok15:34
Slartsmallfoot-: then you'll have to learn how to handle stuff like this..15:34
jhasseChad2408m, try to install "915resolution"15:35
selocolmDemocritus: thanks15:35
Slartsmallfoot-: without running around shouting like the world is going to end for every error message15:35
mDemocritusselocol: did it work?15:35
ratpoisonoh. Basically from what I understand, aptitude and apt-get are similar tools, but apt-get has super COW powers and aptitude doesn't. Other than that, are the interchangeable? which one should I prefer when I could use both?15:35
smallfoot-calculator dont have color on buttons, webcam dont work, it dont have wallpaper changer like macosx15:35
Jack_Sparrowsmallfoot- http://forum.compiz-fusion.org/showthread.php?t=5303  fish inside your cube floating windows etc15:35
selocolmDemocritus: i'll have to wait until it happens again.. ;P15:35
selocolmDemocritus: ive been pulling the power cord previously :/15:35
Starnestommyratpoison: aptitude has a nice interface when run with no parameters15:35
bazhangsmallfoot-, we talked about this before; have you forgotten?15:35
mDemocritusselocol: ah... what was the original reason for it?15:36
Slartratpoison: they are interchangable..15:36
Slartratpoison: some people say aptitude handles dependencies better... but that was a couple of years ago..15:36
selocolmDemocritus: i just did ctrl+alt+backspace and the login window never appeared15:36
umyiHello, is there some way to get restore the last directory you have deleted?15:36
smallfoot-bazhang, maybe15:36
Slartumyi: trash bin?15:36
umyiSlart: Yes15:36
Slartumyi: if you used nautilus15:36
Jack_SparrowSlart Ubuntu implimented tohse features in our verrsion of apt-get15:36
smallfoot-bazhang, oh wait, yes you was the guy who banned me15:36
mDemocritusselocol: right... but i'm asking... why did you need to do that?15:36
smallfoot-bazhang, yes, but this time i didnt say any bad words15:37
bloopsCan I install step from the repositories? Its in kde-edu.15:37
ratpoisonother than having freedom of choice, what is the reason for two tools for basically the same thing?15:37
TerabyteHey, where can I find the hardy heron desktop background for download?15:37
Jack_Sparrowsmallfoot- and you are well on your way again15:37
ripper666hey i know that automatix is done making programs for ubuntu atfer 7.4 but are their any other programs that do the same thing???15:37
umyiSlart: I might have, dont remember exactly how I did it15:37
bazhangsmallfoot-, please read this: http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct/15:37
SlartJack_Sparrow: yes.. it was fixed in.. dapper? feisty?15:37
selocolmDemocritus: i didn't know what else to do15:37
umyislart it was few hours ago though15:37
Sir_Fawnpugratpoison, it pretty much boils down to choice15:37
Jack_SparrowSlart I have slept since then so I dont remember15:37
Starnestommyratpoison: aptitude has some extra features, handles conflicts better, and has a more advanced interface15:37
Slartumyi: do you see the trash bin on your desktop?15:37
mDemocritusratpoison: welcome to the FLOSS comunity... there's normally at least a couple ways to do the same thing15:37
umyiSlart: No, I used live cd to install15:38
Chad2408mjhasse, thanks for the information, but when I installed it through synaptic it said this: 915resolution   -   What should I do know?15:38
mDemocritusselocol: you still misunderstand me... why did you need to do that? did the system lock up, or what?15:38
ratpoisonmDemocritus, I realise that... it's just that I find the "me too" project philosophy a bit redundant15:38
jhasseChad2408m, you could try "sudo apt-get install 915resolution"15:39
ray_anyone experiences ubuntu server and gallery2 ?15:39
Slartumyi: hmm.. ok.. let's back up a bit.. you had a working ubuntu system.. and using that system you deleted some files/folders.. and you're still running that same system, right?15:39
selocolmDemocritus: yes, without the login screen, i couldn't do anything. system did not respond to any of the key combinations i tried. so it locked up, perhaps15:39
mDemocritusratpoison: of course it is... but there's scenarios that make it worthwile15:39
Sir_Fawnpugratpoison, the redundancy, imho, is actually a good thing15:39
Chad2408mjhasse, sorry about that.  It said that It couldnt find something and that it wasnt automaticly configured and that I should do it manually, what do I do now?15:39
gaof_I was told how to fix the wireless but it requires a restart of init.d/networking and then using iwconfig for the connection with dhclient wlan0. Is there a way to automate such a task, not as a script, but to just have the system do this instead of us for wireless upon loading the destop?15:39
mDemocritusselocol: ok so when you boot, you don't get the login screen?15:39
umyiSlart: Yes15:39
etronikwell! time to blow my system out the water and try to restore data from tape later on... my best guess right now is upgrade to Hardy Heron completely F###d my system !15:39
Tyllerwhatever15:40
bloopsis there kde-edu 'beta1' in the repos?15:40
Slartumyi: you installed the regular ubuntu?15:40
=== RuyalarPrensi___ is now known as RuyalarPrensi
Jack_Sparrowetronik Please dont swear even if you try to discuize it15:40
selocolmDemocritus: i was in fluxbox. i wanted to switch to gnome, so i hit ctrl+alt+backspace. instead of the login screen showing, i got a blank/black screen, which did not respond to any key combinations. i tried ctrl+alt+f7 and ctrl+alt+f4 and ctrl+alt+backspace.15:40
ratpoisonSir_Fawnpug, well redundancy is the last measure you can take for system reliability, but it increases system complexity. I guess this is an engineering question of how to compromise between the two15:40
amenadoChad2408m-> can you do this   gksu displayconfig-gtk   and configure your video card from there?15:40
umyiSlart: Yes, from the live CD, I had still the files when it was installed15:41
spsneoi changed my home folder , now when i try to login i get the error This process is currently running setuid or setgid15:41
spsneoThis is not a supported use of GTK+15:41
Slartumyi: if you open the file explorer (it's really called nautilus).. ie double click on a drive or something15:41
spsneowhat to do15:41
Infinito_I think it's much better this way.. if you don't like the way some tool is developed you can step in and develop another one to please yourself and maybe other discontent linux users, ratpoison.15:41
etronikJack_Sparrow: sure. soryr15:41
umyiSlart: ok15:41
mDemocritusselocol: try not to use ctrl-alt-backspace unless you really need to... it's not a very nice way to restart X15:41
mDemocritusselocol: from what i understand that is15:41
etronikJack_Sparrow: sure. sorry!15:41
Slartumyi: do you see a panel on the left side with your drives?15:41
Jack_Sparrowetronik I understand your frustration...15:41
umyiSlart: yes15:41
selocolmDemocritus: yeah, i didn't know that until just now.. thanks15:42
durkahow do you add a startup item when it's a program that has to be run from the command line with a specific $PWD15:42
Infinito_I think it's cool to consider aspects other than technical when building a system, but I speak only for myself here :)15:42
Slartumyi: at the bottom of that panel there should be something called "Trash".. click it15:42
Jack_Sparrowetronik Do you keep a sep /home partition?15:42
brando1hi, could someone help me install my router and tell me what I need to do to do "port forwarding"?15:42
penselocol, what's your question?15:42
mDemocritusselocol: np... if you log out of fluxbox, do you get back to the login prompt?15:42
Chad2408mamendado, thank you very much.  I was able to change the resolution, now I just have to kog on/off for changes to be made.  Ill tell you if it works.15:42
selocolmDemocritus: yes15:43
ray_please anyone, ubuntu (latest) server and gallery2, installed it, installed imagemagick, jhead and all the 'have to' stuff on a ubuntu web/php/mysql server, no directory with gallery, what am i doing wrong15:43
STSXdurka: Just include the full path when you specify the program in the "command" area.15:43
mDemocritusselocol: ok cool.... don't use ctrl-alt-backspace then :D15:43
brando1how do i install a linksys router in ubuntu?15:43
spsneoi changed my home folder , now when i try to login i get the error This process is currently running setuid or setgid This is not a supported use of GTK+ what to do15:43
umyiSlart: There is no Trash, Its the 7.04 version15:43
Sir_Fawnpugratpoison, I guess the best answer for that is that UNIX is inherently modular, so the redundancy lets more advanced users set up their environment to their liking15:43
selocolmDemocritus: ok, got it :P15:43
Caf-Fiendmorning all, security-wise am I ok to change the permissions of /var/www/ so I can put files in there?15:43
Slartumyi: ohh.. my bad.. thought you were using hardy.. hmm ok.. hang on15:43
soshkahello helpline?15:44
Terabytebrando: the linksys router installs itself15:44
Jack_Sparrowbrando1 for port forwarding.. See your router setup.. not a hard thing to do15:44
mar77ihey, where does the stuff go I choose "only for download" in synaptic?15:44
mDemocritusbrando1: there's no software to install... plug into the router, reboot the system, then point a web browser to http://192.168.1.1/15:44
bazhanghello soshka15:44
Slartumyi: on the desktop.. do you see a trash bin icon anywhere? usually lower right corner or on the background itself15:44
Terabytebrando: portforwarding depends on the router, what router do you have (what isp are you with)15:44
mDemocritusbrando1: the rest is up to you and linksys :D15:44
Jack_SparrowmDemocritus thanks.. you beat me to it15:44
mar77i[[for]]... or so15:44
ArmadaI've broken my ntfs partition, but I know what's wrong. In the partitiontable it says the partition starts at 63 but it actually starts at 64. How do I fix this?15:44
brando1so then how do i configure port forwarding, im not even sure what that is, but i read that its what i need to do to make Transmission faster15:45
umyiSlart: Ah, i didnt look after it there in first place15:45
ratpoisonSir_Fawnpug, another thing is that if one tool fails some reason, you have another tool for the job. That causes some bloating I guess, but it boils down to choice I guess15:45
Terabytebrando: you will find the control panel for your router by typing 192.168.1.254 into firefox. from there you can setup port forwarding,15:45
bazhangwww.portforward.com brando115:45
Slartumyi: =) it can be sneaky15:45
mDemocritusbrando1: it's in the applications and gaming section usually15:45
suRscan anyone tell me how do i check what ip i have in terminal ?15:45

darrendis qemu still the right package to be installing, or has something superseded it now?15:49
kwtmJack_Sparrow: Hey! That web page doesn't say how to play Ogg files. :P  My Ubuntu came with the ability to play mp3's but not Ogg!?15:49
chev_cheliosnoobuntu: this is the place where all noobs and kung fu masters exchange the knowledge, because knowledge is power!15:49
Jack_SparrowArmada Sounds like a good way to break your system15:49
Sir_FawnpugArmada, I think fdisk is transaction-based, it might rollback15:49
daniel_I'm about to download an Ubuntu install CD to install on my Desktop. Now I'm struggling whether to use 64 or 32 bit. Does compiz work with 64 bit on Ubuntu?15:49
Caf-Fiendray_: cheers, ok then, where do I put my html files?15:49

Jack_Sparrowkwtm What distro are you using.. clearly not ubuntu15:49
Slartdaniel: how much memory do you have ?15:49
Sir_FawnpugArmada, don't quote me on that though15:49
bazhangdaniel, may as well get 32bit15:49
danielSlart: I don't have more than 4GB of memory15:49
umyiSlart: Now I moved the pics to a USB stick, then it reset the modified date both on the USB stick and on the desktop15:49
mDemocritusdaniel: 64 bit is usually more of a hassle than it's worth15:50
kwtmJack_Sparrow: Kubuntu 7.04 Feisty, currently up to date.15:50
danielbazhang: Yes I guess that'll keep away much trouble.15:50
Jack_Sparrowkwtm in a term   type lsb_release -a15:50
danielThanks guys, will go 32bit then.15:50
ray_Caf-Fiend: simply in /var/www, use sudo if needed to copy them15:50
Slartdaniel: 64-bit can be a bit cranky when it comes to flash, java, electronic id's and such.. but you'll get those 0,5% extra performance =)15:50
soshkasorry extreme lag15:50
noobuntuchev_chelios: so, kung-fu masters, beat the sh*t out of me :)))15:50
Jack_Sparrowkwtm No version of kubuntu plays mp3s out of the box15:50

kwtmreflous: I find that it works for me. It's designed for laptops moving from one wireless environment to another.  If you are disconnected, it immediately starts looking for other available connections.16:12
Sir_FawnpugArmada, I've been in a situation where I've had to manually fetch the data that was accidentally deleted from a coworker's ext3 partition; it's not pretty.16:12

juliotrident523 It doesn't tell how to install in the Gutsy16:16
etronikshould /home be setup inside a LVM or is that too risky ?16:17

babolatbazhang: someone asked what DAAP meant.. he just gave a valid external resource16:25
trident523ImDude, noobuntu: I forgot how I got amarok to do that kind of sharing, but rhythmbox has a plugin called "DAAP music sharing." Enable that, and if the other computer is serving, it should show up shortly.16:25

mohbanahow do i play a dvd which i just mounted? it was previously an iso file, if i use movie player i have to manually select all the .vob files16:30
nomasteryodamohbana, you can select a folder to play in vlc16:31
mDemocritusmohbana: some media players can play a directory...16:31
nomasteryodaor smplayer16:31
mDemocritusmohbana: kaffeine does it too16:31
ratpoisonmohbana, use vlc. Then File > Open Disk (or something similar) Then choose the corect device16:31
nomasteryodaand they "realize" the folder is more or less a dvd and just play it16:31
mohbanathanks alot16:32
noobuntutrident523: the funny stuff is that i saw windows networks just before a couple of days. and since i tried to install wlan on ubuntu, i can't see it anymore16:32

ezzieyguywufstsx : i'm kind of hesitant to replace the whole hal-system-power-suspend-linux script with my custom one, namely because there are a lot of things i'm removing that i'm not sure what they do.17:35

Kuwangerbabolat: Look, I'm pretty sure that at some point, an event is generated by the kernel when a cd-rom is inserted in the dvd-rom drive.  And I'm pretty sure that at that point, something will then execute the mount command necessary to mount the disc.17:38

This is the case of both interface and content. Any idea or tip on a dependancie that may be the concern ?17:39
ezzieyguywufstsx: i think i read somewhere that they would eventually make pm-suspend standard. I found it doing a search for files on my comp for 'suspend' as i was trying to find the script that controls suspend. I don't think pm-suspend does at the moment but it works great. That gnome-power-management website does mention it though. you should check it out.17:39

KuwangerSTSX: What Flannel said.  There's already automounters installed for most people who use kubuntu/ubuntu.  I'm the odd-ball that uses icewm. :)18:02

anirudh0Kuwanger, i could'nt manage to configure ivman..though install's easy..try the automount program18:04
anirudh0Kuwanger, when you try to access a drive..say ls /mnt/cdrom, the drive will get mounted...config's much easier..forgot the details, google them up18:04
STSXeyes`only: gksudo sets up the correct environmental variables for gedit and other GUI apps--just because gedit is tolerant enough to be run with sudo doesn't mean you should. :)18:04

cipher_nemoJack_Sparrow, thanks. Do I just use grub-install command?18:38
h4mx0rcipher_nemo: have you ever considered using virtualbox?18:39
Josdellting up my wired connection, it's not on or anything, how do I bring it back up, its a broadcom(yikes)18:39

mac_<josspyker> srry my internet connection was lost18:40
h4mx0rcipher_nemo: it can emulate other systems on your own at a very low level, you can merge the desktops together and even do fancy compiz effects with it going its rather nice18:40
mac_<josspyker>I am m_newton18:40
cipher_nemoh4mx0r, the system works fine as is, but the reason I want grub on the SSD is so that I can swap SD cards when I want instead of being forced to have the SD card with Xubuntu always in to boot.18:40
STSXh4mx0r: I've used VirtualBox and unless you really need it, it can add another layer of complication (and thus problems).18:40

mosheyes,Slart, the d/l's go to /tmp and I am unable to see them in my /tmp dir. Need to send them to /documents so I can save them to external hdd18:44
Henry_RHodes_IIIfor everynes sake18:44
Starnestommyjulle_: does "initramfs" show up anywhere?18:45
javagamerI have quite a problem.  My CPU appeared to be overheating, so I checked the stock cooler.  When I discovered it was loose I decided to remove it and put it on properly.  I got it to fir nicely, but now I can't even finish booting before the computer shuts off (presumably because it thinks the CPU is over 100C).  I have the cover off and I can touch the heatsink, but the CPU thinks it's overheating.  What could I have done wrong?18:45
h4mx0reyes`only: your supposed to execute a script to turn off compiz when ever you run certain programs then enable it again when they exit18:45
Slartmoshe: I think it's a setting in firefox.. not ubuntu.. check in firefox.. edit menu, preferences.. main tab18:45
Henry_RHodes_IIIit would be a good idea to do it for newbis like me that are comming from novell netware or vista18:45
archWell, my question still haznt been answered, and i think nobody has any exp with PCSX, so im out18:45
Oli```javagamer: does your BIOS have a hardware section.. That should tell you the temps18:45
mosheSlart, will try that....thx18:45
cipher_nemojavagamer, possibly not seated the heatsink properly? Did you use thermal paste, etc.?18:45
Slartmoshe: you're welcome18:45
julle_Starnestommy: yes it does18:45
eyes`onlyh4mx0r: well yeah there's an idea, but the problem is that it does it when you view vids in FF as well, and manually exec'ing that script before every time i hit a page with a video would drive me nuts18:46
h4mx0rjavagamer: what thermal paste did you use and is it touching properly? did you leave residue in the paste? try using rubbing alcohol to remove all of the stuff around the cpu then reapply the paste and reseat the fan18:46
Starnestommyjulle_: is this after installing, or before?18:46
blakedlol @ javagamer18:46
julle_Starnestommy: before18:46
javagamerOli: It's the BIOS that tells me the CPU is going over 100C18:46
Xorothalwoah18:46
Starnestommyjulle_: sounds like a bad cd18:46
Daisuke_Laptopblaked: if you can't say something helpful, be quiet.18:46
h4mx0rblaked: its a common problem same as a cable coming lose18:46
Oli```javagamer: in that case, stop booting up until you're sure the HSU's on properly. You don't want to knacker the CPU18:46
julle_Starnestommy: ahaa okey, i'll burn another one18:46
cipher_nemojavagamer, the motherboard thermal sensors might be out of whack as well... sometimes they fail quickly on cheap mobos18:47
julle_Starnestommy: Thank you!18:47
Josdellhey guys what module does the Broadcom Ethernet controller use?18:47
h4mx0rjulle_: burn another what?18:47
javagamerI didn't reapply any thermal paste (I assumed what's on there already is enough, I don't have any thermal paste on hand)18:47
mDemocritusjavagamer: the cpu is either overheating or the temp probe is messed up.... one or the other18:47
Starnestommyjulle_: you may need to also download it again, or try the alternate cd18:47
mDemocritusjavagamer: get some... it's pretty cheap... like 3-6 bucks18:47

h4mx0rjavagamer: all hardware stores sell the stuff but if you like have to make some you could use baby powder and umm some sort of oil I remember reading about these people making systems out of old nintendo parts doing that but its sloppy work that wouldn't be a long term fix18:52

FlannelSuN13: Just editing the menu.lst.  What error did it give?  Also, you can try a bunch of things by editing the lines inside of the grub menu, just hit 'e' and you'll get dropped to an editor  (useful for trial and error)18:55

jamiejacksonPulseaudio: here's what's confusing: i added hardy-proposed, i apt-get installed firefox, it told me that it upgraded it "Setting up firefox (3.0~rc1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.04.1) ..", i then removed the repo, then ran firefox, and firefox --version reports "Setting up firefox (3.0~rc1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.04.1) ..". Similarly, synaptic shows that the installed version is 3.0~b5+nobinonly-0ubuntu3. I guess Synaptic's right, huh? So wonder wh20:32
GoopD3RGPS31: I think Ubuntu seems to have a bit of a bug with this20:32
Slartnoobuntu: try the live cd's.. each one has a different feel to it20:32

legend2440noobuntu: was that the livecd?  some find that they need the alternative cd to get ubuntu to install on their computers because of hardware configurations. but the alternative cd doesn't let you try out ubuntu first before installing. no i think if install fails you start over making sure cd is not defective or if it was a bad burn20:48

InvaderAmotoprabakaran: np21:39
NoxideSTSX: Nope :(21:39
mib_ih7x99arch: Is it a passive or active digitizer? (passive = touchscreen, active works only with a pen, but the pen can move the mouse as well as click and erase)21:39
archmib_ih7x99: Really, I'm not sure. I'm not exactly a professional of Ubuntu, but I can find my way around :(21:39

Noxideheh k, give me a min. let me connect my laptop via ethernet so i dont have to type it all :-P21:41
InvaderAmotoprabakaran: i think thats in the plugin called animation21:41
mib_ih7x99arch: Do you know anything about xorg modules? There's an actual driver for my touchscreen at conan.de, but I can't make it work--I'm assuming that Ubuntu's Xorg is too new or something.21:41
archmib_ih7x99: Which module is this?21:42
InvaderAmotoprabakaran: you can find out the key bindings for plugins by going into the settings for the plugin. thats how i know them.21:42
amenadowhose got two video cards and is able to use them at same time? may I copy your xorg.conf file so I can make mine work too?21:42

Ashfire908Has anyone here used apt-proxy?21:44
smaxnot working21:44
mDemocritusok i'm trying to roll back to the 2.6.22-14 kernel to fix a sata/ide driver issue problem with the new kernel, but when i boot from the old kernel, X doesn't start, i get lines in my Xorg.log of (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA graphics device... suggestions?21:44
smaxit invokes mplayer.  but the file is not playing21:44
archmib_ih7x99: And yes, I've had some experience with Xorg mods.21:44
Kituwhen i install aptana jaxer and configure it, and lauch it :21:44
Kitu/opt/AptanaJaxer/Apache22/bin/httpd: error while loading shared libraries: libexpat.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory21:44
mib_ih7x99arch: Well, I installed setserial, and put the referenced command in bootmisc.sh (along with a chmod a+rwx /dev/ttyS0 to let the perl "driver" work)21:44
Kitu:(21:44
Kitusomebody know this error ?21:44
Ashfire908mDemocritus, you might not have the driver in the old kernel modules that xorg is set to use21:44
mib_ih7x99arch: I dumped the driver in the appropriate directory (I forget the exact path, but kbd_drv.so and the other drivers were in there)21:45
archmib_ih7x99: Wow, you almost know more than I do...\21:45
STSXNoxide: Well that's a good sign--the b43 module is the latest module in Hardy for Broadcom chipsets, and I think it's supposed to work with the BCM4311. So if you do "ifconfig" and "iwconfig" what do you get? And what happens when you try and connect thru System > Admin > Network?21:45
smaxand helix is not in the repos21:45
Ashfire908Kitu, you are missing a shared libary. make sure you have the package for the libary installed.21:45
mDemocritusAshfire908: so i have to use a different xorg.conf? would the upgrade to hardy have wiped the old one, or made a backup?21:45
smaxok helix-player21:46
STSXNoxide: ...and it looks like b43 is loaded according to lsmod.21:46
mib_ih7x99arch: I tried ~15 different variations on my xorg.conf file, and all I could do was completely disable my mouse. I had to hit Ctrl-Alt-F1 and edit xorg.conf from there (and you have no idea how many times I had to dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg :-))21:46
KituAshfire908, i have libexpat but the ubuntu package don't contain libexpat.so.021:46
Ashfire908mDemocritus, you have to check that it's using the correct module.21:46
prabakarani couldnt find d keybidings21:46
Kitujuste libexpat.so.1 and libexpat.so.1...21:46
Kitu-e21:46
Ashfire908mDemocritus, sorry, Ive actually never done an upgrade.21:46
InvaderAmotoprabakaran: so you want it so that when you close a window it bursts into flames?21:46

Ashfire908Kitu, is what your using designed to be on ubuntu21:47
mDemocritusAshfire908: np that gets me started21:47
mib_ih7x99arch: The instructions reference /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/input; a `locate kbd_drv' found the appropriate directory21:47

onthefence928hey does anybody know why my firefox3 lost all of it's settings and broke it's bookmarks and add-ons?21:47
archmib_ih7x99: Okay, I'm clueless as to how to fix this kind of problem. This appears to be a graphics problem, and I've worked with Amaranth to pretty much solve one.21:47
mib_ih7x99arch: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input (/usr/X11R6/lib doesn't exist)21:47
prabakaranok21:47
choosebreakfastHow would I go about getting to irc.what.cd?21:47
KituAshfire908, why i use ubuntu (sorry i understand only basic english)21:47

glitsj16mdemocritus: hardy has a new Xorg, changes are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XORGHardy21:47
KituAshfire908,  normally it work on debian libexpat.so.021:48
archmib_ih7x99: Whoa whoa whoa! I remember that error when I was installing my graphics tablet...21:48
InvaderAmotoonthefence929: i've had that problem before. i had to go to system monitor and force quit all open firefox's then whne i open it i have to choose restore. try that21:48
owen1startx loads xfce. how do i change the default to be something else (i am not usig gdm).21:48
Kituthis library is in the debian package but not for ubuntu :(21:48
icqnumbermDemocritus: maybe u just need to reinstall the nvidia driver...21:48
NoxideSTSX: I've tried it with WEP/WPA and Unsecured networks, I have other boxes connected wirelessly so I assume its some setting or something wrong in ubuntu.21:48
mib_ih7x99arch: Well, I'm probably going to have to settle for Sam Engstrom's perl driver--I've rigged it up in such a way that it works tolerably.21:48
archmib_ih7x99: Try mkdir /usr/x11r6/lib21:48
Ashfire908Kitu, that was basic english. Is the program that you are trying to use designed to run on ubuntu?21:48
KituAshfire908, aptana jaxer21:48
mib_ih7x99arch: At first I ran `mkdir -p /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/input' and dumped the driver there; that didn't work.21:48
archmib_ih7x99: Clueless again :P21:49
icqnumbermDemocritus: this will update ur old kernel21:49
Ashfire908Kitu, I don't know what that is.21:49
mib_ih7x99arch: I'm not sure if the driver was even loaded or whether it's compatible with whatever X11 system Hardy uses. :-S21:49
Amaranthmib_ih7x99: The driver API/ABI has changed since we were using /usr/X11R6 for stuff so the driver will almost certainly not work21:49
Kituit is an AJAX IDE over eclipse21:49
Amaranthmib_ih7x99: Your logs probably show it failing to load the driver at all since there is an ABI mismatch21:49
archAmaranth: Ouch.21:49

mDemocritusicqnumber: it will update the old one? you're sure?21:51
STSXNoxide: For troubleshooting, try using the AP you know is unsecured.21:51
mib_ih7x99Amaranth: Thanks. I'll try recompiling it (the sources are available). Aside from `xorg-dev', what packages will I need?21:51
Amaranthmib_ih7x99: No idea21:51
archmib_ih7x99: In that case, your functionality with the touchscreen is limited until someone, or if you feel like it, YOU, creates a driver for this touchscreen. I think.21:51
mDemocrituswhere would i find out when the next kernel release will be?21:51
icqnumbermDemocritus: load it and then try to reinstall nvidia21:52
mib_ih7x99Amaranth: The driver is at http://conan.de/touchscreen/p-series.html if you're curious.21:52
onthefence928InvaderAmoto: i meant: yeah I tried what you said, and it didn't work, I also reinstalled via synaptic, I didn't work either21:52
archmib_ih7x99: Wow, Amaranth makes me sound like a babbling monkey21:52
mDemocritusicqnumber: load the old kernel and try reinstalling the nvidia driver?21:52

archJack_Sparrow: Hey jack21:52
icqnumbermDemocritus: mine is 2.6.24-17-generic21:52
mib_ih7x99arch: Well, I don't know how to write an actual driver, but if I can recompile this one I can try to make a .deb21:52
InvaderAmotoonthefence929: did you try restarting the computer? i'm out of ideas though21:52
NoxideSTSX: When I type "sudo ifconfig wlan0 up" it gives me a "SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such file or directory" error.21:53

choosebreakfastYes, I am new to IRC, I don't know anything about it, and I am trying to find a way to connect to a server, but I don't know how21:55
mib_ih7x99Amaranth: This driver "should work for XFree 4.x and Xorg 6.8.x and higher." Last update was 09/06/07 (I'm assuming that's 9 June, but it's ambiguous).21:55

choosebreakfastI am curious, but what I tried was apparently wrong21:55

archLol i addressed a message myself21:56
InvaderAmotoprabakaran: its possible to just make it so it does that when its closed but you'll have to ask someboady else about it21:56
wasabiSo... having some serious problem swith two boxes. I think the problem is with NFS> Random segfaults when streaming movies over NFS21:56
wasabiLatest hardy.21:57
STSXchoosebreakfast: should maybe try: /server irc.what.cd21:57
wasabiSince two boxes are doing it, and it only happens when I'm doing NFS... it seems related.21:57

InvaderAmotoprabakaran: i figured out how to make it so it only burns when a window is closed if your interested in that21:59
glitsj16puff: activate NTP (via system > time & date i think, using xubuntu myself so this could differ) .. set the "keep synchronized with internet servers" option and choose some nearby servers21:59
puffarch: There were a few times I adjused the date & time and clicked on "keep synchronized",e tc, that it worked, but then it went back to showing the wrong time zone, and now trying that doesnt' seem to have any effect.21:59
archpuff: If it completely drives you MAD having the wrong timezone but the right time, reformat.21:59
puffglitsj16: Yes, I already did that.21:59
mib_ih7x99arch: Wow, that's a little drastic :-)21:59

robdigguest675: ok, the sources file is kept in /etc/apt/sources.list, might want to make sure that your sources are present. don't know what they would be called in debian22:43
niner64rayyrayy: if you have time to try the various other install methods on grub try the partition like example /dev/hdb5 or whatever t my just tkae it22:43
rayyrayyminer64 ..  I tried /dev/sdc and whatnot but got errors .. used ..  find.. root .. sudo grub-install (hd0,1) type ..  shows good in dev map, but I still get "error loading os"22:44
niner64rayyrayy: then you can wipe your (hd,0) after you know your /dev/hdb5 is working ;)22:44

jamGLesTzvacet: but the rest worked XD23:26
jamGLesTit says that at the bottom...?23:26
Kaitoif it is that you can install it via System->Preferences->Appearance, click install click on your file and click ok, then just select it under customize and bingo23:26
zvacetjamGLesT: of course not    sudo aptitude install gparted23:26
CatslacksHey, I'm using madwifi for my wireless adapter and it floats around 50-55% most of the time, but when I'm trying to play games (Return to Castle Wolfenstein, Warcraft 3) I lag a lot and it makes them nearly unplayable.23:26
jamGLesTzvacet: what are super cow powers, some programming thing, or a joke?23:26
brian_i think robthebob has gone. :( sorry robthebob.. I tried to help23:27
robdigMarty81: sounds like someone has changed the permissions of the sudo command...23:27
zvacetjamGLesT: I believe it is joke telling you that you didn´t  type command correct23:27
derspanksteranyone want to try to tackle my nvidia problem?23:27
jamGLesTzvacet:no, it worked, but the end said that23:28
robthebobcheers brian23:28
KaitoCatslacks in my experience if the connection is 50% strength it should work fine. Are you sure it is the network lagging and not the graphics?23:28
zvacetzvacet : and aptitude  does not have Super Cow Powers to know what you want23:28
CatslacksYes, I am sure it is the network.23:28
brian_ain't no thing robthebob.  from what i read you just ass resume="<your swap partiton" to your kernel params23:28
KaitoHmm, what brand of wireless card do you have?23:28
jamGLesTzvacet: oh.23:29

CatslacksKaito: In Return to Castle Wolfenstein the "connection" box pops up, and in Warcraft 3 I get 'Waiting for Host.' I have a D-Link DWA-542 Card.23:29
jamGLesTzvacet: so now do i have to do the ./configure make make install?23:29
zvacetjamGLesT : there are many option for aptitude I you didn´t use any of them23:30
robdigMarty81: to fix, you will likely need to boot up in recovery mode and fix the permissions. once in recovery mode, think this will do it         chmod u+s /bin/sudo23:30
sedraderspankster: what's your problem23:30
KaitoI have only got in depth in broadcom cards, sorry dont know much about problems with those, look up dlink problem on the ubuntu forums23:30
zvacetjamGLesT : no it is install if you typed sudo aptitude install gparted23:30
jamGLesTso i just type install/23:31
robthebobjust going to try it now23:31
jamGLesToops23:31
Kaitozvacet btw whats the difference between aptitude and apt-get commands?23:31
jamGLesTzvacet: so i just type install? or ./install23:31
derspankstersedra, when I enable the driver I get no X, flashes three times and then I have to reconfigure for vesa or nv, nvidia 660023:31
Marty81well, I prolly messed up somewhere :P23:31
thorOk, I've installed Ubuntu 8.0.4 on my PC and Wine 1.0 rc3. I am trying to get WoW to play nice with them. Using Linux divers on my GeForce4 4600 Ti, in OpenGL mode, I get really poor rendering, only about half the world displays at all, and maybe 1-2 fps. If I try to use the Nvidia propietary drivers, I get this:23:31
zvacetjamGLesT : or if you are more visual type go to the synaptic and in search box type gparted23:31
thorhttp://pastebin.com/d56eef11323:31

brian_did they nuke tab completion for apt-get in hardy?  I used to be able to type sudo apt-get install nvidia-s<tab> and it would auto complete for me.. it doesn't work for me anymore23:37
derspankstersedra, Ok, did a fresh install of Hardy, X wouldn't start, screen flashes 3 times and then I have to reconfigure from low graphics to use either nv or vesa to get a screen. All attempts to unistall, reinstall fail the same way, envy did not work nor did nvidia-glx.  I also tried to install a driver directly from Nvidia site and could not install - complained about lacking lbc linking ibrary being missing - which it isn't.23:37

brian_troxor lol23:46
troxorjamGLesT: sets the umask to 022, inverting that gives you 755, the default permissions, iirc23:46
glitsj16Chrysalis: activate unstable repo for sonata via synaptic, do the install and de-activate it again before closing synaptic23:47
jamGLesTtroxor: so what should i do23:47
slappytroxor: ... seriously ...23:47
