tbbottleI see00:02
AlmightyHenBut seriously guys when I boot up I just get a black screen.  I believe it's related to fglrx and compiz starting up on boot.  I've tried aticonfig --initial but that doesn't seem to help.  Any suggestions?00:02

WaxyFreshAlmightyHen: try reconfigureing your xorg.conf?00:03
jribWaxyFresh: you didn't actually give the path to the file.  You want ./filename ...00:03
summatusmentiscongrats :) I use OS X normally, but I like linux a lot00:03
tbbottlemateo: you will need to install the chntpw password00:03
helpyactuall it has been installed00:03
helpyit just won't write the image00:03
summatusmentisI'm hoping 8.04 is polisehd enough00:03
AlmightyHenWaxyFresh: How does one do this?  I tried atiiconfig00:03
mateo0802how?00:04
STSXWaxyFresh: There shouldn't be a space between the ./ and unreal.tournament...00:04
glitsj16helpy: okay, looking into an alternative, give me a minute00:04

Rubenhello00:05
brian_summatusmentis: hrmm.. i wouldn't get my hopes too high.. i just finished reinstalling after an update killed my xorg and then the installer reversed my drives during install (sda and sdb became sdc and sdd while sdc and d became sda and b) which caused all kinds of issues.. its been fun getting it back up and running.00:05
azzcoFor some reason my mouse isn't responding when a key is pressed. This is something new any ideas?00:05
tbbottleDJ:  The hostname is configured in the /etc/hostname file.  You will need to log out and back in to set it.  The domain information is needed by samba and should be in the smb.conf file00:05

Jadewolfhate to pull the this is an emergency need help card but, I was taking out my old hard drive that I though was not being used as everything was working /dev/sda1 (SATA) and the drive I removed was IDE normal ATA drive.  But when i rebooted I find the SATA is blank, and all the data was really on the normal IDE, is there away(I have both conntected) to copy the stuff from one drive to another?00:07
glitsj16helpy: getting there, jus a moment00:07
ffmJadewolf: cp?00:07
summatusmentisbrian_: awesome :)00:07
ffmJadewolf: mount one, then the other, and cp the data.00:08
brian_ffm: too logical00:08
tbbottleStick to rebooting if you don't know what a run level is. Change the contents of the file /etc/hostname to the host name and reboot.  When you log back in, the shell should be 'youruname@newhostnae #'00:08
ffmbrian_: hm?00:08

Jack_Sparrowjedimind alt-F7 to get out00:54
jedimindahh good to know00:54

Guest7484well does that ring a bell?00:54
Jack_Sparrowjedimind 1-6 = term 7 out00:54
jedimindneat00:54
jedimindnow if only i can sort out my problem :)00:55
red22i've seen many ppl with the same problem, but no solution.. i'm getting choppy video and 3d gaming performance after installing 8.04, although fine before. ati.  any ideas pls?00:55
Jack_Sparrowred22 Turn of compiz for 3d games...  and if ati card make sure composite is turned off in your xorg00:56
m1ri get errors on boot after : kinit: No resume image, doing normal boot , and it drops me to busy box saying it cant mount /dev/disk... anyone have similar problems ?00:56
jedimindi know this is a little off topic, but anyone know if id be able to setup a dlink router to act as a bridge from another wifi connection ?00:56
Marty81so, which firewall for ubuntu is the best to use? I had Firestarter b4, but didn't load [failed] when booting up, ever...00:57
Jack_Sparrowjedimind no00:57
jedimindwell poo00:57
Jack_SparrowMarty81 Are you trying to open up some specific ports?00:57
kitcheMarty81: there is only one firewall and it's iptables00:57
Jack_Sparrowjedimind you can bridge sharing with firestarter..00:57
Jack_Sparrow!firewall00:57
ubot3`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).00:57
bcl1713jedimind get one of those hackable linksys routers and install linux!  then you can do anything you want! :)00:58
red22Jack_Sparrow: compiz and my video performance was fine before.. been running compiz for over a year now i think.. you pretty sure it's compiz?00:58
Marty81naw.. not really, just curious, since, like I said, Firestarter doesnt start upon booting00:58
jedimindbcl1713: good call00:58
Jack_Sparrowred22 Turn it off.. 3d games should come back to life  see also /join #compiz00:58
red22Jack_Sparrow: even my compiz effects seem a little choppy at times.00:58
jedimindJack_Sparrow: with firestarter i can technically connect wifi to a signal then lan to my router to bridge it ?00:58
Jack_Sparrowred22 which ati card00:58
red22x1950 pro00:59
josspykerjedimind: yes00:59
Jack_Sparrowjedimind I have not dome it but that is supposed to work yes00:59
Jack_Sparrowred22 which driver and how did you install it00:59
jedimindinteresting00:59
jedimindJack_Sparrow:  how bout running multiple wlan drivers for different users? :) since you seem to be the current guru01:00
bbyeverhow convenient is it to buy a dell with ubuntu pre installed? i mean, can it use compiz? is it better to buy one with windows and the install ubuntu?01:00
Jack_SparrowMarty81 Firestarter is not a firewall , just an iptable manager and only runs when you want to reconfigure your ports.. It can be made to run on startup, but that is not the default01:00
Jack_Sparrowjedimind no idea01:00
jedimindbbyever: it would make more sense to buy one thats specifically tested for ubuntu01:00
red22Jack_Sparrow: i didn't have to manually install anything,  whatever was set by a clean 8.04 install w restricted drivers.01:00
Kaitobbyever a dell with ubuntu preinstalled would be supported to run it all, it would work best01:00
jedimindand you'd be able to run compiz etc on it no problem01:01
Jack_Sparrowbbyever the dell preinstalled are supposed to be nice01:01
Marty81so, when I want to use a firewall, which should I use / d/l?01:01
josspykerjedimind: correction,firestarter can share an internet connection between two boxes01:01
cgentry72i can't get mp3 or music cds to play anymore can someone help01:01

jedimindtroxor: so basically im a bit noobular, and i followed a how-to on getting ndiswrapper going for my wlan as i was having some issues w/ the bcm43xx driver (it was only connecting at 1mbit), but now i need to use the driver because of a networking tool im using doesnt support ndiswrapper. but i dont want to run bcm43xx full time, so i want to setup an alternate user which runs it, and leave ndiswrapper on my main account;01:31
jedimindso the question is - how do i unload ndiswrapper from working globally and how do i setup the alternate user to use bcm43xx01:32
jedimindand all of this while not having a LAN to plug into or an alternate computer to use in the event of massive explosion : )01:32
eraldotroxor: do you know where I can get a nice and clean .Xdefaults file ?01:32

jedimindthey dont seem to be01:44
grndslmbcl1713:  i've had quite a few problems with fstab since ubuntu starting using UUIDs... chances are if you can use a livecd to mount the HDD, you can edit the fstab to just say /dev/sda1 instead of UUID=13723509 or whatever unreadable junk it uses01:44

jedimindi dont think that worked either, i modprobed -rv both of them, couple of times for ndiswrapper but it still running01:46
grndslmglitsj16:  i've done it a few times before, and it boots.. but this might be something different01:46

grndslmbcl1713:  you've tried booting from a livecd?01:47
jedimindtroxor: no it kills the wlan, but i connect fast enough that irc doesnt time out01:47

GrammaticusI am having some difficulty adding new programmes (specifically, AbiWord). I constantly receive a message stating that 'the list of applications is not available'. Any assistance would be appreciated.01:57
Jangariwho knows about how to set up a drop-box on a server?01:57
troxorjedimind: hmm.. try editing /etc/network/interfaces, and adding a line with your interface's name01:57
wheezepuppeti'm running feisty with an NVIDIA graphics card...how do i enable 3-d?01:58
m0u5ePulseaudio: I would have recommended AVG, but currently there is no AVG AV solution for linux (the last one is out of date and discontinued)01:58
PulseaudioJack_Sparrow: indeed, but it would not help if my drive here(ntfs drives) were to get infected somehow.01:58
Pulseaudiom0u5e: I see.01:58
m0u5ethere may be a few others, but those two are the best...01:58
jedimindname as in wlan0 or... ?01:58
PulseaudioAVG and clamav?01:58
* Grammaticus twiddles his thumbs.01:58
bcl1713m0u5e i don't think avg is even offering a free windows version anymore..01:58
troxorjedimind: er, perhaps that won't work; try just stopping networkmanager (/etc/dbus/event.d/25NetworkManager stop or somesuch), then modprobe -rv ndiswrapper01:58
Manaci1wheezepuppet: go to System > Administration > Hardware Drivers01:59
m0u5ebcl1713: it is... i'm using it :X01:59
Jack_SparrowPulseaudio They would not get infected by something you ran inside ubuntu...01:59
Stroganoffwheezepuppet: Restricted Devices Manager01:59
troxorjedimind: then of course, modprobe -v bcm43xx and ....25NetworkManager start01:59
m0u5ebcl1713: its avg 8.0, free edition01:59
Pulseaudiobcl1713: http://free.grisoft.com/01:59
=== selocol is now known as lainy
Manaci1i stopped using avg because of the 30 trial for the email scanner01:59
troxorjedimind: something's keeping ndiswrapper from being unloaded, that's all;01:59
m11cant boot into ubuntu after several hardware failures which are not HDD's, it reports EXT3-fs error and group description corrupted , then it fails to mount disk and reports target fs dont have /sbin/init and finish in busy box. any help is really appriciated.tnx.01:59
m0u5ePulseaudio: i wouldn't worry too much about viruses on ubuntu, the most important thing is to be careful and not run apps with root unless you are sure they are safe01:59
jedimindok will try that01:59
Jangariavg is annoying on windows, you can't turn off the complete test function, so every time I run windows on my dual-boot laptop, it takes 10 minutes to do so because avg hogs all the cpu01:59
m0u5eJangari: i'm pretty sure you can turn off the scheduler :X02:00
glitsj16a lot of confusion about the need for virus-scanning on ubuntu, check https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Linuxvirus, for instance, running wine opens a lot of doors .. just my 2 cents02:00
Pulseaudiom0u5e: you said two, AVG and ClamAV I presume?02:00
Manaci1i use avast for my anti virus needs02:00
Jack_Sparrowglitsj16 You run wine.. and windows apps.. and Z mapped.. you deserve to have problems02:01
bcl1713m0u5e Pulseaudio: right on.. couldn't find it last time I was setting up a windows box.  just installed avast for her instead02:01
glitsj16Jack_sparrow, id on't :p02:01
Jack_Sparrowglitsj16 Didnt hthink you did02:01
m0u5ePulseaudio: yeah, but I don't actually really even use clamAV (i just have it installed)... as I said, being careful is more important than having AV...02:01
Pulseaudiom0u5e: aye. I intend to just scan once a month or so02:02
jedimindwell that sort of worked... except that wifi wouldnt work w/ the bcm43xx driver02:02
PulseaudioJust y'know, it's like having extra protection. Nothing wrong with that02:02
m0u5ePulseaudio: clam AV should be enough for that then, just run it once a month and leave your computer on overnight02:02
jedimindbut ndiswrapper definately unloaded02:02
TtechHow do I Get ruby  Gems working on Ubutnu Server02:02
Pulseaudiom0u5e: the thing that irks me however is that clamav seems to take >24 hours02:02
m0u5edoe sanyone know if CLAMAV is supposed to just automatically update itself? :X02:02
m0u5ePulseaudio: huh.... i dunno then? :X02:02
Starnestommym0u5e: I think freshclam automatically updates every weel02:03
Starnestommy*week02:03
glitsj16Pulseaudio: indeed, and f-prot gives you the added functionality of cleaning a virus, none of the others do02:03
Pulseaudioeven avg on windows didn't take that long on the same size of hdds02:03
Pulseaudioglitsj16: what's f-prot?02:03
jedimindtroxor: that sort of worked... except that wifi wouldnt work w/ the bcm43xx driver, but ndiswrapper deffinately got unloaded02:03
troxorjedimind: that's a step in the right direction ;)02:04
jedimindyeah :)02:04
glitsj16Pulseaudio: another virus-scanner, very stable and documented02:04
jedimindsigh all of this just so i can snoop out some wifi :)02:04
troxorjedimind: your best bet is just to get another card for monitoring02:04
Pulseaudioglitsj16: is it speedy? I'm hoping for something that doesn't take >24 hours on 600+gb02:04
Pulseaudiohmm, they have a .deb02:05
Pulseaudiobut it's an older version...02:05
glitsj16Pulseaudio: you might give it a try, but it's the fastest i come across linux-side of things02:05
DILStarnestommy: i got same errors any guidance is appreciated - http://paste.ubuntu.com/16314/02:05
Noxidewhats a good irc client besides mirc/pidgin (i dont really like pidgin for IRC)02:05
* Pulseaudio installs via deb on f-prot's website02:05
PulseaudioNoxide: xchat02:05

mysteriosoI am installing "The Orange Box" using WINE. When prompted to put in the second disc the application won't allow me to open the disc tray. Please let me know how to fix this.02:05
StarnestommyNoxide: xchat (not xchat-gnome), irssi, or konversation02:06
DILStarnestommy: ty02:06
NoxidePulse: thanks i'll get that. it says its for FC6.. will it work on any?02:06
jedimindtroxor: that is an excellent idea02:06
troxorjedimind: btw, did you try using `iwconfig <interface> rate 54M` with the bcm43xx driver?02:06
jedimindi may even have a pcmcia linksys card laying around02:06
jedimindtroxor: yeah, no luck02:06
glitsj16Pulseaudio: the deb might be older, the updating is very up-to-date via cron (takes care of that itself after install), gdluck02:06
Pulseaudiothey don't update the f-prot's deb often... *sighs*02:06
Pulseaudiowhat's cron?02:06
Jack_Sparrowmysterioso /join #winehq02:07
Marty81mysterioso: I'd say you have to umount your CDROM drive first02:07
Pulseaudioglitsj16: so you mean all I have to do is install from .deb and it'll auto-update?02:07
Noxidehow do I run a .rpm files?02:07
StarnestommyPulseaudio: it schedules tasks02:07
Jack_SparrowNoxide not a good idea02:07
PulseaudioStarnestommy: oh ok02:07
TtechSorry! Sorry! I don't know what happened. :(  I seriously didn't mean to do that02:07
StarnestommyNoxide: you really should not use rpm02:07
pablomy ubuntu us not shutting down, does anybody have any idea on why? i have ubuntu 7.1002:07
Jack_Sparrow!rpm02:07
ubot3`RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)02:07
TtechSorry! Sorry! I don't know what happened. :(  I seriously didn't mean to do that02:07

Jack_SparrowNoxide  get the tar and build it yourself02:08
glitsj16Pulseaudio: none that is know of no, Gdebi installer checks dependencies etc. if they might occur02:08

ubot3`m11: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually.

detrateFirst time I tried to install, I created a 30gb partition for windows and installed it02:33
navetzstroyan; what is a modifier mapping, i also see that shift lock control and mod[1-5] are in that list02:33
bloodrockn-ice i'm looking at in the add/remove right now02:33
noxixls02:34
frsandstone77question: i have gone through the process of downloading vmware and extracting it all throgh terminal using this site: ' http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2008/05/30/install-vmware-server-106-on-ubuntu-804-hardy/02:34
stroyannavetz: If that output doesn't show any keys mapped to 'shift' or 'control' that would be strong clue. ;-)02:34
detrateran the CD to use 'the largest unused space' and it installed without GRUB02:34
jedimindshould pcmcia hotswap be enabled by default in hardy ?02:34
bloodrockn-ice open your add/remove and do a search for gstreamer02:34
frsandstone77 I am now at a screen asking me this: In which directory do you want to install the binary files?  [/usr]02:34
frsandstone77what do i do?02:34
detratesame thing happened when I installed XP to the full partition and used the partitioner02:34
detrateno GRUB02:34
askreetdetrate,  The Ubuntu installation didn't install GRUB you mean?  Strange.02:34
navetzstroyan; it shows things mapped to shift lock and control02:34
detrateyes, twice02:34
detrateso I used a live CD to do it02:34
detratebut then I get the NTDLR error when I try to boot into windows02:35
n-iCebloodrock,  i told you, it is installed02:35
detrateso I can fix that by doing the fixmbr/fixboot commands but I loss ubuntu that way02:35
stroyannavetz: The modifier mapping sets a correspondence of keys to modifying attributes.  It sounds like vmware did not change that.  The trouble is elsewhere.02:35

troxordimas869: eh, it would probably be better to fix it- what's in /var/lib/dpkg/status-old ?03:03
troxordimas869: you can run vimdiff on the two files, to see what's changed03:03
Pulseaudiogrub is colloquial for food!03:03
Ububeginwhere can we find (device manager) or something close, ... i want to know my comp's memory and CPU speed03:03
askreetScunizi,  Try running through the stuff listed when I typed !grub, it will reinstall the grub bootloader, check for errors when you do the steps..03:03
szx0Can anyone link me to a tutorial on how to install custom icons?03:03
dimas869troxor vimdiff?03:03
Scuniziaskreet: already looking at it..03:04
PulseaudioUbubegin: add/remove, install sysinfo03:04
PulseaudioUbubegin: it's kinda nice03:04
jedimindhow do i check what modules are currently loaded ?03:04
troxordimas869: or whatever you'd like to use to view differences between files03:04
Flanneljedimind: lsmod03:04
askreetkernel modules? lsmod03:04
troxordimas869: or you can just move the files around, e.g. status -> status.borked, and status-old -> status03:04
sgmadisoni have downloaded ubuntu-desktop it installs fine but after the loading screen goes to a black screen, same from livecd - this is an optiplex 745 that has installed debian and linuxmint just fine - any ideas? I've been trying to get it going for 3 days, i'm a little lost as to why debian boots fine, as does linuxmint (which is based on ubuntu? or debian at least)03:04
PulseaudioUbubegin: also you may go to system->administration->system monitor03:04
troxordimas869: but do keep a copy of both around, just in case03:04
Pulseaudiobut I kinda like Sysinfo for things like finding out what the specs of your pc is, etc03:05
sgmadisonnote that if i install ubuntu-server, it loads fine, it's obviously an issue with gnome or x03:05
dimas869troxor how i move them?03:05
troxordimas869: sudo mv03:05
HG1Has anyone here installed Drupal on Ubuntu 8.04?03:05
troxordimas869: or sudo cp03:05
UbubeginPulseaudio: i am dl the sysinfo... now... thanks03:05
dimas869troxor where should i find the old one?03:05
troxordimas869: the same directory, /var/lib/dpkg03:06
askreetsgmadison,  It's probably some X option that video card doesn't like -- reboot the CD again and check the list of boot options, theres one for a 'safe video mode', though I dont recall what it is.03:06
sgmadisonaskreet - thanks i'll try that03:06
askreetsgmadison, np mate, let us know how it goes.03:06
dimas869troxor should i just switch the names then?03:06
m11cant boot into ubuntu after several hardware failures which are not HDD's, it reports EXT3-fs error and group description corrupted , then it fails to mount disk and reports target fs dont have /sbin/init and finish in busy box. i tried run sudo shutdown -F -r with livecd but same result after reboot. any help is really appriciated.03:06

askreetfrsandstone77, Something wierd with your configuration file, if you haven't done anything, try moving the config folder and relaunching.  mv ~/.VirtualBox ~/.VirtualBoxBroken03:09
askreetthen see if it does the same thing.03:09
UbubeginPulseaudio: yeah, it does a good job.. How about adding the storage info also , cos currently i cant be able to see the hard disk's size03:09

glickm_newton, whats the default dvd burner?03:10
askreetsgmadison, Wow.  What kinda system again?03:10
sgmadisonaskreet: however while I was typing that, it looks like xserver restarted and i'm on the desktop now - if I install how do I enable whatever this did?03:10
[RICE]Does anybody know the way to make Tint Task Manager stay on the top layer?03:10
sgmadisonaskreet: an optiplex 745, intel 975G chipset/onboard video if i'm not mistaken, I've nveer had an issue with it under windows or any other linux distro before03:10
askreetsgmadison,  I *think* whatever boot options you use on the cd are propogated to the installation.  I remember having to use a certain flag for a laptop and the issue never occured in the installed copy.03:10
bcl1713grndslm: hey.. just wanted to let you know I've been playing with a program called TestDisk which seems to have located a backup superblock for the ext3 filesystem that I SHOULD be able to use to recover the partition table!!!03:10
m_newton<glick>what are you trying to burn exactly03:10
askreetsgmadison, Pretty recent chipset, this is Hardy?03:11
sgmadisonaskreet: correct03:11
glickm_newton, some .avi and .mpg files that i want to be able to open on windows03:11
m_newtonQuestion to all:Just wondering, is it possible to install cain + able on hardy???03:11
sgmadisonaskreet: 8.04, downloaded and burned yesterday03:11
askreetsgmadison,  Wierd.  I've never used it on that chipset, I wonder if it's a chipset-specific bug.03:11
sgmadisonaskreet: well, the last time I burned it was yesterday, I thought maybe something was wrong with the CD03:11
sgmadisonaskreet: I've googled and found other people reporting the issue as far back as the GX260 on gutsy gibbon, but it looks like anytime someone fixes it they never say how...03:11
m_newton<glick> gimi a sec03:12
askreetsgmadison, Anyway, whatever flag you booted with could be appended to the /boot/grub/menu.lst file to produce the same result, theoretically.  I think the installation LiveCD is the same kernel.03:12
pipegeekHowdy03:12

pipegeekaskreet: hi :)03:12
troxordimas869: yep03:13
pipegeekJust booted a system for the first time in a few months, and decided to upgrade gutsy -> hardy.  Resolved all outstanding package updates, rebooted (new kernel), then waited for the "you've got updates!" icon to appear in my system tray03:13
Soulwarpim using xchat. does anyone use other irc clients?03:13
frsandstone77chatzilla03:13
pipegeekonly, it didn't.  So, how do I kick off the upgrade, if ubuntu doesn't think there are any updates waiting for me?03:13
[RICE]Weechat03:13
askreetsgmadison, For the record, I think safe video mode uses the Xorg "vesa" driver instead of autodetecting nvidia, nv, radeon, intel, etc.  I'm guessing the chipset would autodetect intel and try that.03:13
dimas869troxor could you explain me what is it i need to do?03:13
SirBob1701can anyone recommend a really customizable terminal that supports transparency and possible no file menu?03:14

[RICE]@SirBob1701, xfce4-terminal is pretty good (and doesn't actually need xfce4 to work)03:14
askreetpipegeek,  Haha, sure did.03:14
glickstill ther m_newton ?03:14
sgmadisonaskreet: honestly, this is for a little 'rack' of 12 optiplex's, I wanted to try something besides debian, I like having a gui environment instead of just staring at terminals when i play with them, but once they're set up I really just remote desktop in with vnc03:15
pipegeeksorry, I type slower than I think03:15
m_newton<glick>yup trying to find the app in the menu03:15

askreetharpreet,  In the world of software firewalls (Which I'm 99.9% certain isn't enabled on Hardy by default) output traffic such as email from evolution would *not* be blocked.  Are you sure your evolution settings are correct to be sending mail?  Are you using the SMTP information provided by your ISP/Mail service?03:49
brodycreate a virtual system by following the instructions it gives you and then when it says choose the mount point find the copy of xp that you have and tell it to boot from that file03:49

harriseldonnew2linux if you want to ensure that you are going to your desktop, you can use cd ~/Desktop. The ~ means your home directory04:16

new2linuxmy eth0 is facing to the network for thin-client, should it be in static ip mode or roaming mode?04:51
janice8954I think that command will work, I was loggin in from root. Do you think that's why the command wasn't working?04:51
djznanyone familiar with audio (cooledit, audacity, audition):  why re-saving a WAV in Audacity does not give me the same bit-identical WAV file as the original ?04:51
harriseldonjanice8954 possibly. Did you enable root logins? Ubuntu blocks them by default.04:52
ZaidenThink there'll be a fix for PulseAudio soon?04:52
janice8954I'm not sure. I actually think I did.04:52
janice8954When I initially setup the loggin window.04:52
janice8954This is really crazy lol.04:52
n-iCedoes hardy comes with compiz???04:52
pros9000Hardy does come with compiz, but it depends on your graphics card04:53
janice8954n-ice I have not seen that program on my machine, so I think that's a no04:53
glitsj16djzn: never experienced that with audacity (1.3.4 beta) .. have you checked your settings ?04:53
djznglitsj16: I didn't touch the settings....04:53
n-iCepros9000,  how do I remove it?04:54
pros9000n-iCe is your system running too slow or something04:54
djznglitsj16: but I am wondering... cooledit *is* saving a copy of the WAV that is identical to what it was opened. But not Audacity... I am missing something?04:54
n-iCeno, but i can't expand my menu bar on the top04:54
pros9000Try system -> appearance -> effects -> none04:54
glitsj16djzn: can't tell, never used cooledit04:54
n-iCeI did, but that doesn't uninstall, right?04:54
m11how to fix broken system that is booting to busybox ?04:54
n-iCeI don't want it on my system anymore, pros900004:55
djznglitsj16: is there anything in audacity that writes wav metadata or stuff like that?04:55
pros9000n-iCe you could go into /etc/X11/xorg.conf and set the video driver to vesa04:55
harriseldonn-iCe uninstall will do nothing for you if it is not running. It will just free up some disk space04:55
pros9000On Gutsy, I added ~/.config/xserver-xgl/disable04:55
pros9000a text file04:55
glitsj16djzn: yes i think so, that might be it .. it wouldn't hurt to re-check the settings i guess to make sure04:55
pros9000That also disabled xgl04:55
djznglitsj16: because that happens for the first time only, if I re-save again the "not identical" file, it will give a identical file to it04:56

jb0tFlannel: desktop?  this is a server. no gui installed, or wanted05:29
cn28hgcarrillo, ulimit is usually internal.. are you using bash?05:29
Flanneljb0t: What?  If I said anything about a GUI, I meant it for janice895405:29
jb0tk05:29
gcarrillocn28h: let me double check05:30
Flanneljb0t: Oh!05:30
gcarrillocn28h: yup, i am05:30
Flanneljb0t: sorry.  Stop, stop.  No ubuntu-desktop, mysql-common05:30
cn28halso you can set it by calling the ulimit() function - see man 3 ulimit05:30
m11can someone help getting ubuntu to boot up properly ?it ends now on busybox05:30
Flanneljb0t: Shoot.   I really hope you didn't hit enter.  If you did, not the end of the world.05:30

janice8954yes Flannel05:36
christozgcarrillo this path is not valid anymore cause i ave install recently windows ....and after restoreing grub the path is not valid05:36
Flanneljb0t: this is odd indeed.  Oh, youre running as root.  Try just "apt-get install mysql-common"05:37
PCcertifiedFlannel: mie was ca05:37
gcarrillochristoz: ahh05:37
PCcertifiedFlannel: CA was mine cuz I'm in Canada.   I just used the pulldown box and changed Canada to MAIN and it works now05:37
jb0tFlannel: hah. yeah.  same error.05:37

Kcaj[programmingI love you guys, and Ubuntu. I want a non-bias'd opinion though; what is the best distro to use with KDE as default (desktop, well, laptop actually)? I want decent server capabilities (sand-box for programming, development station) but lots of good desktop features.05:40
christoz"you can boot off a liveCD, and run whatever command installs grub into the MBR" what do you mean exactly to do gcarrillo ?05:40

janice8954Okay, one moment06:01
Flanneljanice8954: Or, if you prefer synaptic, hit "update" then install gdm, then remove kdm06:01
Azaelif I set up as u and down as d it works, but anything with a super key l or r doesn't work06:01
FeloneIts set to Create ISO or BIN/CUE, as you said.06:01
Flanneljb0t: you awake?06:02
neohavenFlannel: not what I meant. What is the purpose of having 2 different apps managing packages? Both Synaptic and the Add/Remove one?06:02
Azaelmy vol up key is alt + super L for example06:02
janice8954Flannel is there anyway to change my password/06:02
Flannelneohaven: Add/Remove is dumbed down, its simplfiied so if you don't know the name of something, you can find it (and it only shows the stuff most people find interesting), Synaptic is everything (not just apps, but libs, etc, etc)06:02
Flanneljanice8954: sure, users and groups can do it I think.  If not, the "passwd" command06:02
neohavenFlannel: Meh, I probably would have implemented a menu option with "Advanced..." or something, but ok, I get that. :)06:03
janice8954Flannel, taking out gdm would have wiped away that stupid theme that screwed me up in the first place right?06:03
Flannelneohaven: Add/remvoe is a custom app for Ubuntu, Synaptic is a stadnard one06:03
Felonelegend2440: About how long should this take for a 10minute piece?06:03
Flanneljanice8954: yeah, just removing the config files ("complete removal" in synptic).  And actually, once youinstall gdm, you should try it out before removing kdm06:04
neohavenFlannel: ok :)06:04

glitsj16MaskedOne: also experiencing trouble like DaveyJ (flash taking over eveything) ?07:22
fdeDasmoover: Keep in mind, Nvidia drivers are closed source, so they might not be up to scratch on the latest Compiz, which could be giving you your issue.07:23
MaskedOneno glits, for me it does not matter if it is flash or not, two programs (such as rythmbox and a game) cannot hear sound on em at the same time07:23
MaskedOneor movie player/rythmbox or whatknot07:23
fdeglitsj16: It doesn't take over everything... it takes over /dev/snd/* from pulse... and Ubuntu no longer uses things like dmix, so flash needs to support pulse to play nice...07:24
musikgoatAnyone know how to attempt to get the nvidia 173.14 drivers installed in hardy?   or seen any one elses explanations?07:24

Myrtticr4ftyb0n35: basically the support period of all the versions is known before they're released08:06
cr4ftyb0n35Myrtti: True. I should have just read the damned thing more clearly.08:07
digin4hi, is there a way to turn ubuntu into an SME server08:07
whateversamCan anyone help me get Ubuntu running on my system?  I have it running flawlessly in VMware, but can't get jack on the real system.08:07
owen1dangodango: it's for people that want real speed and efficiency.08:07
Hewuscr4ftyb0n35: Ah, ok. Well for future reference, standard support is 18 months, LTS is 3 years on the desktop and 5 years on the server :-)08:07
Myrtticr4ftyb0n35: http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/14608:07
magnetroncr4ftyb0n35: 6.06 is a LTS release, for that particular reason08:07
Myrtticr4ftyb0n35: for future graphical reference :-P08:07
owen1dangodango: and no desktop. u can open many terminals in one screen and resize.08:08
shank1rbo, does installing linux ubuntu  gets rid of the space that vista took? and if for some reason im not satisfied with ubuntu, can the vista restore cd still work with ubuntu installed?08:08
dangodangoowen1: yeah that's why i use fluxbox ;-) theyre all efficient use bsd then u only use 30mb lol08:08
owen1shank1rb: no worries. u'll never look back.08:08
glitsj16shank1rb: why not try it from live cd before changing anything ?08:08
whateversamYou'll never look back if it works anyway.  :/08:09
Hewusshank1rb: if you're just testing out ubuntu, you might want to try wubi, in which case you probably don't need to burn it to disc. For a standard installation however, it will repartition your drive according to how you want. It will keep you informed :-)08:09
dangodangoowen1: thts cool08:09
dangodangoowen1: i have one load up on startup pinned to desktop using xterm08:10
Hewusshank1rb: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WubiGuide08:10
owen1dangodango: a well known ruby/python hacker is using it. Zed.08:10
cr4ftyb0n35Myrtti: Some hardware we had wouldn't run with 6.0608:10
whateversamWUBI crashed my system.  I had to format the entire HDD and do a fresh install.  :/  Linux hasn't worked sence.08:10
Myrtticr4ftyb0n35: :-<08:10
whateversamIt was working fine for like two days.08:10
christozhey Flannel the problem is solved(at last!) what should i do in order to have the windows mounted all the time ..meaning to be mounted every time u\buntu starts (automatically)?08:11
whateversamHonestly I blame Windows for not liking Linux.  <.<08:11
shank1rbwhat's a live cd? and what does repartitioning the disk to the drive, is there a way to re-repartion the disk? Sorry but im not that computer techy, but i can do follow steps good.08:11
cr4ftyb0n35on a different note. I like Gnome, but I also like KDE's customization levels. But KDE's look just doesn't float my boat. Anyone here got suggestions on what I can do with my life therefore? :)08:11
Hewuswhateversam: if it was actually working for some time then it doesn't sound like it was a wubi issue..08:11
owen1dangodango: r u talking about flux?08:11
Sonic132Hey can someone remind me what the command in terminal is to find out what my partitions names are under Gparted?08:11
dangodangoowen1: yeah if you mean about the xterm thing08:12
whateversamHewus: Yes, that's why I blame Windows.  But the think that's pissing me off is that fact that Ubuntu hasn't worked at all after the crash.08:12
Darlok_WilliamsSonic132: ls /dev/" may help ;)08:12
Hewusshank1rb: a live cd is where you boot directly from the cd and it doesn't use your hard drive. It's good for seeing how ubuntu looks before you commit to anything (although it can be a bit slow running off the cd)08:12
christozhey Flannel the problem is solved(at last!) what should i do in order to have the windows mounted all the time ..meaning to be mounted every time u\buntu starts (automatically)?08:12
Hewuswhateversam: have you tried a standard ubuntu install on a separate partition?08:13
whateversamI've had Ubuntu on this sytem before, and I utterly loved it.  Now I'm doing my damnest to get Windows off for good, but can't do shit.08:13
cr4ftyb0n35christoz: stick the mount into /etc/fstab08:13
m1rbazhang_: can i PM you ?08:13
Sonic132Darlock_Williams: Well that comes up with tons of entries. I need to narrow it down to only my partitions.08:13
whateversamHewus: Actually, I gave Ubuntu the entire drive after ghosting Windows.08:13
cr4ftyb0n35KDE vs Gnome vs alternative: Can't make up my mind. Gnome looks nice, lacks customization; KDE is customizable, but defaults look ugly and plump; Flux is nice but light etc.08:14
gidnaHi08:14
Hewusshank1rb: repartitioning can be undone if you change your mind. The partitioner in ubuntu can shrink and grow existing partitions just fine.08:14
Darlok_WilliamsSonic132: Your hard drives are either hd* or sd*08:14
=== mindvirus is now known as MindVirus
whateversamHewus: The guided partion did everything from formatting to setting up the main linux partions needed to run.08:14
Sonic132Ok maybe giving you my entire problem might help. I'm trying to reinstall a version of Windows to dual boot. But I need to reformat a partition as NTFS. But I don't know which one is the one that is safe to reformat without data loss.08:14
shank1rbHewus: i have a 220 GB HDD and i dunno the amount that vista has occupied. Will installing Ubuntu overwrite the vista part? Or Will it create another Drive?08:14
whateversamI can use Ubuntu RIGHT NOW, but ONLY from Live CD or VMware.  Which is driving me crazy!08:15
gidnaHow can I open a video with mplayer and not with firefox? what file Have I to choice when tells me open with?08:15
Sonic132Darlock_Williams: Well hda sda is not under ls /dev/08:15
Darlok_WilliamsSonic132: Then you've got a bigger problem.08:16
bazhang_m1r, what's up? best to ask in channel so the much smarter people can comment :)08:16
Hewusshank1rb: vista probably has the whole thing atm. If you install ubuntu, it will shrink that partition and create a new one for ubuntu. The guided installer will let you select the amount of space you wish to use for each. You can also partition manually if you like (as I do).08:16
Sonic132shank1rb: You should create a partions for Ubuntu with the partition editor included with the Ubuntu disk.08:16
glitsj16gidna: do you mean bypassing the firefox plugin ?08:16
Hewuswhateversam: can you just install ubuntu on a second partition?08:16
gidnaI can't open the file with firefox 3 and I would open it with another programm08:17
m1rbazhang_: yes, sure, i am trying still to figure out this busybox , can i try mount sdb1 on it and then try to boot system somehow ?08:17
Sonic132Darlock_Wiliams: Shouldn't I use 'ls /hda/' or something? I thought /dev/ was something else.08:17
whateversamHewus: I don't know I haven't tried.  I don't think it would solve anything.  I mean I formatted the entire 80gig HDD just for Ubuntu.08:17
Darlok_WilliamsSonic132: /dev/ hosts all of the devices on your system (hard drives, modems, video cards, etc)... basically any DEVice attached to your computer.08:18
glitsj16gidna: open your file manager, right-click and choose "Open with other application" and point it to mplayer08:18
Sonic132Darlock_Williams: Oh and I was wrong. There are sda 1 through sda 4 listed in there.08:18
gidnayes but How can I point it to mplayer?08:18
Hewuswhateversam: I'm confused.. You have ubuntu on the drive already? Why can you only use it in a VM then? Did you just remove Windows? (hooray if you did :P)08:18
whateversamThe research I've done tells me that it's a driver missmatch and the kernel can't load to the GUI.  (I think)  So, busybox pops up expecting me to know how to fix it.  :/08:18
Darlok_WilliamsSonic132: Okay... that means you have one SATA hard drive with 4 partitions on it.08:18
Darlok_WilliamsSonic132: Correct?08:18
gidnaDoesn't appear in the list mplayer08:18
mifritscherhi08:18
dangodangoowen1: well have a good day im leaving now08:19
mifritscherwhy doesn't the cdt appear in eclipse?08:19
Darlok_WilliamsSonic132: By the way, there's no need to type out my complete name... just type the first few letters and hit [TAB]... the rest will be completed for you :)08:19
m1rbazhang_: if i go boot with root=UUID or root=/dev/sdb1 i get kernel panic , if i set it wrong path it drops me into busybox08:19
shank1rbHewus/ Sonic132 : I have the following specs, which installer do i download?   |Processor:AMD Turion 64x2 Mobile technology tl-60, 2 ghz|     |System Type: 32-bit OS|08:19
whateversamlol.  Yes, I remvoed Windows, but I kept an Acronis image of it just in case.  So, when I couldn't get Ubuntu to work (after three days of trying) I restored the image of Windows which I'm using right now.08:19
Sonic132Darlock_Williams: I believe so. But how do I find out which one is the one for /, /home, and Linux Swap. So that I can tell them apart from my extra ext3 partition?08:19
Sonic132Darlock_Williams: For some reason that auto-fill in thing isn't working. I've used it before.08:20
whateversamHewus: VMware is on the Windows install (as well as the backup image).08:20
glitsj16gidna: mplayer is installed ? if so, open the bottom option "use custom command" and type mplayer in the box08:20
bazhang_m1r, what about sudo blkid what does that return08:20
sarmisakwhateversam: what is the system config?08:20
Sonic132shank1rb: Use the i686 or 32-bit version.08:20
pawanhi08:20
Darlok_WilliamsSonic132: When you start up GParted (System>Administration>Partition Editor), it will list all your partitions.  Just look at the different filesystems and partition sizes to determine what you're looking for.08:20
whateversamHewus: basically it took 20 min to restore Windows XP from a blank HDD to having VMware and IRC.08:20
m1rbazhang_: where to put that?into busybox ?08:20
Hewusshank1rb: the standard desktop version is fine, and you can choose either 32 or 64-bit08:20
whateversamsarmisak: Do you mean the CPU RAM and Video card?08:20
sarmisakwhateversam: yes08:21
owen1poll - what terminal are u using and why?08:21
bazhang_m1r, you in the livecd now? try in terminal if so08:21
Sonic132Darlock_Williams: Well the partion I'm looking for is 4.6GB of free space on it currently. But none of the partitions listed in Gparted match that.08:21
m1rbazhang_: no, but i can load livecd in few minutes08:21
pawancant load higher resolutions on nvidia 520008:21
Darlok_WilliamsSonic132: Then it doesn't exist.08:21
gidnafrom where Have I to open the custom buttom?08:21
whateversamsarmisak: CUP: AMD athlon x64 3200, RAM: 2gig DDR.  Vid: ATI Radeon x800. 256MB DDR.08:21
MindVirusI want to move an existing user's home directory to another one. How would I do this?08:22
Sonic132Darlock_Williams: Well I have it open in Nautilus right now and just used it for Virtualbox storage until now.08:22
Hewusshank1rb: it doesn't matter too much, but if you're unsure, I would choose the 64-bit version :-)08:22
glitsj16gidna: from within your file manager, nautilus is the default on hardy 8.0408:22
Sonic132Darlock: So it'd better exist.08:22
sarmisakwhateversam: are you using it with an lcd?08:22
MindVirusDoes anyone know?08:22
m1rbazhang_: loading livecd08:22
Darlok_WilliamsSonic132: Keep in mind that GParted can not edit partitions that are currently mounted.08:22
sarmisakwhateversam: specifically connected through DVI?08:22
whateversamsarmisak: nah, I'm stuck with CRT or S-video.  I do have a DVI converter for my CRT though.08:22
Sonic132Darlock: Well it would still show mounted partitions. It has before.08:22
Darlok_WilliamsSonic132: Yes, it would still list it.08:23
sarmisakwhateversam: the thing is the ati drivers are no good in some setups08:23
Sonic132Darlock: Also, I could just unmount it. I don't have anything system critical on it.08:23
gidnaI don't find it08:23
Sonic132Darlock: I would still have to find it though.08:23
sarmisakwhateversam: it can create the problems that you specified08:23
Darlok_WilliamsSonic132: Also keep in mind that drive sizes are pretty weird for me.  One OS will report a 5gb drive, while another will say it is 4600000MB ;)08:23
whateversamsarmisak: Yeah, that's what my research has told me.  I don't know how to fix it though.  I don't know the first thing about busybox.08:23
sbatteyWith composite, and fglrx, i don't get any video playback, what am i doing wrong?08:23
sarmisakwhateversam: *if* you really want to use linux, I'd recommend changing the video card to nvidia08:24
csabahow can I find out who is connected to my computer?08:24
glitsj16gidna: are you using ubuntu 8.04 ?08:24
MindVirusI want to move an existing user's home directory to another one. How would I do this?08:24
sarmisakwhateversam: that would solve a lot of problems08:24
csaba"who" doesn't seem to work08:24
gidnayes I am08:24
Sonic132Darlock_Williams: Can we talk in private since your not helping anyone else at the moment?08:24
whateversamsarmisak: don't tell me that.  ; ;  This is a $300 video card!08:24
sarmisakwhateversam: oops :D08:24
Darlok_WilliamsMindVirus: Move the directory and then use System > Administration > Users and Groups to change the home directory08:24
csabawhen I disconnect the network, then processor usage falls to 1-2%, when I connect back, it's 100%08:24
sarmisakwhateversam: I'm really sorry for the cost, but then it might be a good idea to use a second hand pc for your linux adventures ;)08:25
whateversamsarmisak: I switched to ATI because nVidia would always fail after too many driver updates.  It's a native flaw in their drivers and firmware that they have never fixed.08:25
glitsj16gidna: okay, start nautilus and if you have that open, report back08:25
NephelauxeticX11 forwarding via SSH appears to be extremely slow hardy.... does anyone know a solution?08:25
shank1rbHewus: i have a 7200 go nvidia card, can it support the OS  ?08:25
sarmisakwhateversam: I know, i have the same problem with my hardware also, so I just went and bought a ~50$ card just for my linux desktop that i use at work08:26
whateversamsarmisak: nah, I want Ubuntu for my gaming OS.  :p  I'm just sick and tired of the international-ticking-time-bomb known as Windows.08:26
Darlok_Williamswhateversam: Who told you that?  I've updated drivers for one of my cards several times without an issue.  But that being said, ATI will still work in Linux, just not at full capacity most often.08:26
shank1rbHewus: i personally think the video card sucks..08:26
sarmisakwhateversam: are you trying to install amd64 version?08:27

whateversamDarlok_Williams: I told myself.  lol.  I've owned a number of nVidia cards and all dided the same way.  I did the research and came to that conclustion.08:27
whateversamsarmisak: I've tried both amd64 and 32bit Ubuntu as well as the miniISO that d/ls the install on the fly.08:27
Sonic132Darlock_Williams: Wouldn't the partition I'm looking for. Be the only partion that doesn't have the keys icon on it?08:27

KRaZy_WaKaSonic132: i'm being lazy and dont wanna waste a cd-r for a small iso lol, and thanx08:30

Darlok_WilliamsSonic132: Did you set it up through using VBox?08:31

whateversamHewus: Mind giving a short description of gusty.  I've seen it mentioned on many sites, but haven't a clue.  Biggest question on my mind...will it run Wine?  Can't leave Windows if I can't game.  :/08:42
sarmisakwhateversam: which might get you somewhere ;)08:42
Sonic132manyou: No. I need to convert my ext3. It's extra. To NTFS so I can reformat it with Vista.08:42
sarmisakwhateversam: and you might try to install the ati drivers from there; apt-get install ati-fglrx-new08:43
buckhillSonic123: Please read http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=600476   it explains what you want to do in detail.08:43

Hewusshank1rb: wine allows you to run windows programs in ubuntu, but it can be complicated and not work. For office, you can use openoffice which is provided09:10
Flannelshank1rb: It does, but there are native office apps that you'll probably want to use instead09:10
Hewusshank1rb: I recommend you try the livecd first and play around to make sure ubuntu is for you before you dive in and realise it's not what you expected09:10

gordonjcpamorphous__: well if it's Windows machines, you're probably going to want Samba09:36
amorphous__m1r, i need access from windows. Samba has given me a headache for long enough. it's not simple to get it secure via http09:36
gordonjcpamorphous__: that's basically the only network file system that Windows understands09:37
amorphous__gordonjcp, ^09:37
broonsparrowgordonjcp - how do I check that?09:37
newBiehi guy, i'm trying to connect my ubuntu to the internet by using nokia cdma as modem with dku-5 data cabel. but why my firefox cant open any site, but when i use konqueror its works09:37
m1ramorphous__: ftp or ssh09:37
gordonjcpbroonsparrow: type "mount" and look for the device09:37
gordonjcpamorphous__: What exactly are you trying to do?09:37
amorphous__gordonjcp, google is telling me that webdav is good on ms09:37
microwaveranyone who has experience using virtualbox and usb devices?09:38
m1ramorphous__: if u dont want samba, not much u can do but those two above imo09:38
skilletssh is a much better choice09:38
broonsparrowgordonjcp - appears to be rw (/dev/sda4 on /media/Data type vfat (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)09:38
broonsparrow)09:38
skilletamorphous__ or try unison09:39
gordonjcpbroonsparrow: it's not something crazy like the write protect switch on the card?09:39
amorphous__gordonjcp, i have a few machines @ various locations. I want them to back up to a server @ a different one & for people with window$ laptops to have r/w access to those files.09:39
manyou@Smegzor09:39
manyouYou can do it with a usb key09:39
amorphous__ok m1r. thants sort of what i thought. Thanks ;)09:39
gordonjcpamorphous__: ok09:39
broonsparrowgordonjcp - I could write to it fine before I upgraded to 8.0409:40
gordonjcpamorphous__: so they're *not* on the same network?09:40
newBiehi guys, i'm trying to connect my ubuntu to the internet by using nokia cdma as modem with dku-5 data cabel. but why my firefox cant open any site, but when i use konqueror its works09:40
skilletamorphous__ take a look at unison09:40
m1ramorphous__: nps, if u can go for ssh09:40
amorphous__gordonjcp, no - each machine is on a different network - they're all online...09:40
amorphous__skillet - am just trying to get past the union references...09:41
manyouThe proxy settings are incorrect for firefox.09:41
skillethttp://www.cis.upenn.edu/~bcpierce/unison/09:41
gordonjcpamorphous__: ok, webdav might do it if you use https, but basically you want ipsec and samba09:41
manyou@newBie fix using Edit>Preferences>Advanced>Network09:42
manyouDepends on your version of Firefox.09:42

sarmisakmicrowaver: download the compiled binary version from virtualbox.org, it works with usb09:52
Hewusshank1rb: installing the restricted nvidia driver will probably fix the display issues, which you can only do on a proper installation. I personally don't have wireless, but I've heard with some cards there are issues.09:52

icqnumberdefnet, what are you talking about?10:15
Hewusshank1rb: the livecd uses the open-source "nv" driver. Once you have installed, you can use the "nvidia" driver which should be able to use your normal max resolution10:15
m1rdefnet , dont get blue screen of death ?10:16
defneti prefer linux because it runs better on old hardware, but what can i do on good hardware?10:16
shank1rbm1r/hewus: so do u think that the wireless might work as well as i install the Os?10:16

shank1rbm1r/hewus: "ping" meaning?10:17

ubottuenvyng 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.10:45

magnetron!root | RainMaker10:46
ubottuRainMaker: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo10:46

hischildRainMaker, nobody is an idiot, we all have to start somewhere. Can you check if apache is working? If you go to http://localhost it should say IT WORKS10:53

Hewusshank1rb: The wireless driver? I'm sorry mate, but I've said I don't have any experience with wireless, so I can't help with this one :-(. All I know is that proprietary wireless cards are one of the last problematic areas on ubuntu, so frankly it's not surprising you're having issues with it.10:53
RainMakerpurpleeye.ath.cx is my site10:54
hischildRainMaker, a site? i see. And do you know if apache has been restarted after installing phpmyadmin? If not, can you do so?10:54

sfireI actually don't keep up with windows anymore11:23

m1rikonia , after it mounts HDD on boot process11:26
ghisikonia: Wierd since it must be rather in portent that flash works if ubuntu should be "people" os.11:26
ikoniam1r: is this a clean OS11:26
leehambleyhey all, is there a working solution for the Apple slim (alu) keyboard num pad issue under 8.0411:26
ikoniaghis: ubuntu don't make flash - adobe does and it's closed source11:26
m1rikonia , dual boot 2nd HDD with ubuntu 8.04 from beta11:26
ikoniaghis: you'll have issues on any linux based OS potentially11:26
n3uromanc3rDanielRM: reckon a shell script it is then... !11:27
ikoniam1r: and it just stopped working11:27
m1rikonia , did u read above ? i repeat, ok?11:27
niner64ghis: you can goto www.adobe.com forums and see what others are saying about the linux flash plugin :)11:27
m1rikonia: i had freezing up due to bad southbridge cooler, in that process system would boot, work 5 min then get blocked. that was hapening for 2 or 3 days until i found whats causing it to freze and changed cooler. after finally i got it runing it wouldnt mount /dev/sdb1 so i went livecd and repair ext3 with partition editor. after that repair drive gets mounted on start , but after it mounts it drops me out kernel panic and here i am blocked sinc11:27

leehambleyhey all, is there a working solution for the Apple slim (alu) keyboard num pad issue under 8.0411:28
ikoniam1r: how did you "repair" the damaged partition11:28
m1rikonia: using partition editor from live cd, and after that repair it could mount on boot but displays kernel panic11:28
DanielRMn3uromanc3r: good luck.11:28
Freefrags hi all im having some troubles after an update when booting i only get a grub prompt can anyone help me istarted a thread at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=81484111:29
ikoniam1r: yes, but a partition editor is not a repair tool, so what did you actually do, put a new ext3 file system on it ?11:29
ikoniam1r: what partition was /dev/sdb1 , was it the root file system ?11:29
m1rikonia yes11:29
ikoniam1r: yes to what, can you give a little more detail please.11:29
m1rikonia, now i can mount it on livecd , b4 repair tool i couldnt mount it11:29
niner64freefrags: when did you update and what else to you add any hardware software?11:29
ikoniam1r: I'll say it again - partition tools are not "repair" tools, what did you change ?11:30
liassisthello, if i do RHCT can i join ubuntu11:30
ikonialiassist: RHCT ?11:30
m1rikonia: i used partition image and check the system for errors on it as i recall corect11:30
Freefragsniner64: it was a few days ago i didnt change anything else it rebooted and gave me the prompt11:30
centralhello i just install ubuntu 8.04 i must use TOR and privoxy but it do not work with mozilla firfox 3 beta 5?? how to please11:30
m1rpartition editor11:30
liassistredhat certified technition11:31
ikoniam1r: so in the livecd, you can mount this disk. What is on this disk when you mount it ?11:31
niner64freefrags: no error code?11:31
ikonialiassist: how is that anything to do with ubuntu11:31
m1rikonia , whole OS11:31
Freefragsnope well i dont see one it just shows me the grub prompt11:31
liassistboth are LINUX11:31
ikoniam1r: and you can see and access the OS ?11:31
FruitJoyanyone had problems with 8.04 alternate at login prompt? I can see the graphical boot, but at the loging prompt, the display go in standby mode... i donno how to do..11:31
imaginativeonehow do I get k9copy to recognize my dvd-writer?11:31
baizonhi11:31
ikonialiassist: yes, but there is no relecance to official redhat certification exams and joining ubuntu as an ubuntu member11:32
m1rikonia: i can access /dev/sdb1 over livecd normaly and see all files11:32
ikonialiassist: relevance that should read11:32
joachim?11:32
liassistikonia, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/16380/11:32
ikoniam1r: ok, I'd advise you to look at the /etc/event.d directory on /dev/sdb1 for validation all is well11:33
niner64looks like it was waiting for an installation you know buntu updated the kernel recent11:33
mordofsfire: i'm on live chat with a rep from my ISP now asking for a new modem, lmao11:33
m1rikonia:  i boot to livecd to access that drive , brb 5 min, tnx a lot m811:33
niner64did you try grub-install at that prompt?11:33
AlexCONRADhi, what's the diff between "applications > system > add/remove..." and "applications > system > synaptic package manager" ?11:33
ikonialiassist: that makes no sense, to become an ubuntu member you just have to show "contibution" to ubuntu in some way11:33
sfiremordof: or simply the access info :)11:33
ikoniam1r: no problem11:34
FruitJoyanyone had problems with 8.04 alternate at login prompt? I can see the graphical boot, but at the loging prompt, the display go in standby mode... i donno how to do..11:34
liassisti want a "job"11:34
* liassist wants to make $$$11:34
kennethrWhat does "The following packages have been kept back:" mean and why are they kept back?11:34
Freefragsniner64: no i didnt try that yet11:34
ikonialiassist: then you need to contact canonical11:34
DanielRMAlexCONRAD: Synaptic is considerably more powerful and lists all packages.11:34
baizonhi, i got a problem with my ubuntu (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=417675), can someone help me?11:34
vorianliassist: this is not the channel or network for that11:34
DanielRMAlexCONRAD: however, it's also slightly more complicated.11:34
AlexCONRADDanielRM: ok, thanks. So you'd recommand manipulating packages under synaptic11:35
liassistiam asking are there jobs in ubuntu (for 14year old whoes done CCNA)11:35
niner64freefrags: you could also look at your menu_lst and make sure the correct kernel and intrd 's are pointed and the mmap is right in the grub directory if you have access11:35
ikonialiassist: this is a busy support channel, general chatter can be found in #ubuntu-offtopic11:35
Freefragsniner64: i did use the SuperGRUB CD but that didnt help found my menu.lst which looks ok to me11:35
imaginativeoneliasst: are you in the US?11:35
liassistno11:35
fdeliassist: Unfortunately I think it's illegal in most places to hire someone your age...11:35
AlexCONRADdoes synaptic uses apt as a backend ?11:35
imaginativeoneugh11:35
fdeAlexCONRAD: sort of... it uses libapt11:35
DanielRMAlexCONRAD: yes. Certainly you're not likely to mess up; I used Synaptic as my preferred graphical app from when I started using Ubuntu.11:35
AlexCONRAD:)11:36
Freefragsniner64: using the live cd now and i can acces all my files so that should be possible11:36
imaginativeoneliassist: that is a way that Linux is kinda bullshit11:36
AlexCONRADthanks guys11:36
fdeAlexCONRAD: aptitude/synaptic/apt-get/apt-cache/etc are all frontends to libapt11:36
centralhello i just install ubuntu 8.04 i must use TOR and privoxy but it do not work with mozilla firfox 3 beta 5?? how to please11:36
ikoniaimaginativeone: that language is uncalled for11:36
AlexCONRADfde: ok11:36
imaginativeonenobody ever talks about how to eat with it11:36
sfireliassist: yes there are things that help is needed on http://www.ubuntu.com/community/participate11:36
liassistiam sorry for the disturbance ill join the other channel thankyou for your support (life is short but skill is not)11:36
fdeimaginativeone: Umm... you can sell support, or media etc...11:36
AlexCONRADso they would all use /etc/apt/sources.list as libapt uses them I presume11:37
Freefragsniner64: i posted my men.lst and fdisk -l in the thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=81484111:37
fdeimaginativeone: It's just kinda hard for a 14yo to get work.11:37
niner64Freeefrags: good check the grub configuration and possibly re-run grub-install when all is correct (check for limited space on an ext2 partition if you have one of them as well)11:37
fdeAlexCONRAD: yes.11:37
imaginativeonefde: sure!  but nobody every talks about that.11:37
Freefragsniner64: ok where do i find the grub configuration11:37
niner64Freefrags: can you post your fstab as well \11:38
imaginativeone14 year olds who know what they're doing can get paid11:38
Freefragssure11:38
Freefrags1 sec11:38
fdeimaginativeone: Sure they do... RedHat is a multi-billion dollar company, MySQL just made 1billion in one transaction... both GPL almost exclusively... the GPL even lists ways to make money.11:38
fdeimaginativeone: They just try to block out the corporate domination, and put the money back in the developers and contributors hands.11:39
m1rikonia: seems i dont have /etc folder anymore on /dev/sdb111:39
imaginativeonefde: I stand corrected11:39
ikoniam1r: I think we have the problem ;)11:39
m1rikonia: :)11:39
imaginativeoneI guess I just need to talk with the right people (from now on)11:39
m1rikonia: is it fixable ?11:39
ikoniam1r: re-install or restore from backup really11:40
central?????11:40
icqnumberm1r:  how comes u have no /etc?11:40
m1rikonia: i dont have backup of /etc :/11:40
m1ricqnumber: i think partition editor removed it somehow11:40
Freefragsniner64: how do i make one of those nice scrollable things in the forum ? lol it makes a really long post if i paste11:41
fdeimaginativeone: No one is against making money... GNU even sells its version of Linux for something like $5,000 ... it's just a matter of where that money goes to some extent, and more importantly what you get for your money (right to modify, distribute etc)11:41
niner64freefrags: pastebin have you used that before?11:41
Freefragsnope never11:41

ikoniam1r: yes, quite possible11:42
niner64freefrags: lookin at your post..11:42
mordofsfire: buahahaha.... i basically got the agent to "hang up" on me, lol.   i didn't even technically end the conversation and he just cut me off11:42
Freefragshttp://pastebin.ubuntu.com/ ???11:42
fdeimaginativeone: Did you know, for instance, that any media you have on your computer that is in MP3 format, you actually own none of that... your DVD collection, you don't own that... you purchased permission to play that media, and that's it.11:42
kennethrALL: When I use 'apt-get upgrade', I see several packages being held back.  How/Why are they designated to be held back?11:42
icqnumberm1r: was /etc on its own partition?11:42
m1rikonia: any way to retrive it ?11:42
m1ricqnumber: all files on one partition11:42
ikoniam1r: no11:42

mordofsfire: kept giving me all these "upgrade" options which really have the same firewall/upnp configuration.. and i told him those were just as insecure and useless as the one i have now, so i'd continue doing things the way i am xD11:43
fdeimaginativeone: And even then... you purchased permission to play it under curtain circumstances only...11:43
m1rikonia , icqnumber , seems doomsday has come :(11:43

Freefragsniner64: lol ok thnx for the tip11:45
m1ricqnumber: livecd partition editor , i went fixing EXT3-fs with it11:45
mordofsfire: that service allows stuff like that to work with devices like this in the case it can't be specifically configured11:45
niner64Freetype:np the rest of the instructions on that page should hook you back up!11:45
sfiremordof: then here is the other option.. use internet connection sharing to share it to the "server"11:45
sfireor run a virtual machine11:45
sfireVMware ROCKS11:45
fdeimaginativeone: GPL and others simply try give those rights back to you... let you own your copy of the media entirely, to do with as you see fit without breaking any laws... no one ever said anything about not making money from that.11:45

mr_boophilsf: the folder is already shared from the xubuntu machine13:01

mr_boophilsf: ah13:04
Dr_willisfor a linxu to linux machine. nfs is the way to go.. or for  just a few file transfers, it pays to learn ssh, and perhaps use scp and/or the sshfs tool13:04
mr_boophilsf: a pitfall for the user13:04
philsfmr_boo: ubuntu changed the way it deals with this in hardy, it's now much easier - I have no idea what xubuntu does13:05

ikoniagaryd: only very expensive true hardware raid cards will be supported13:25

kripzgnomefreak, dw, apparently filezilla 2 was windows only13:25
garydI just want to buy an inexpensive PC hardware RAID card that works, and don't see a compatibility list13:25
Zero|Byteikonia, I've restarted the xserver with a config that was working before but now it keeps dropping to failsafe I think13:25
gnomefreakkripz: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam/Firefox3Extensions here is a list of ones we tried or have done for hardy/intrepid13:25
KousotuStupid Hardy messed up :(13:25

Kousotunow I get to redo all I did on Gutsy13:26
ikoniagaryd: thats an oxymoron13:26
edgyOdd-rationale: I guess you can do a bash script with something like for i in *; do cp `awk '{print $10}'` $i; done you can ask on #bash for an exact code13:26
ikoniagaryd: the cheap raid cards are not true hardware raid cards, so therefore will only really work as jbods13:26
KousotuJunkie: fusion-icon?13:26
garydnot sure why.  I can buy a PCI RAID card for $30 that works great under windows.13:26
JunkieKousotu: nope... dont have it i13:26
ikoniagaryd: your not using windows13:26
GoopJunkie: Are you using a third-party driver for your graphics card?13:26
KousotuJunkie: install it13:26
JunkieGoop: possibly, my graphics card is an intel onboard for my notebook13:27
beligaryd: check for native drivers beeing available from the manufacturer13:27
patrick__I have a problem, I just installed Ubuntu(Hardy) and I got Twinview to work, however it acts as one big screen.13:27
GoopJunkie: Ah, I think you'd be using the native drivers then13:27
KousotuJunkie: I use 945GM, it used Emeraldfine13:27
beligaryd: ubuntu linux kernel is modular, so you can include your own modules13:27
JackOfSpadesgaryd: cheap raid cards perform raid in software (the windows driver).13:27
sipiorgaryd: although it doesn't actually answer your question, you might consider software raid, which is certainly of comparable performance to cheap hardware raid, most of which cards are fairly rubbish anyway.13:27
patrick__Anyone know how I can fix this issue?13:28
garydYes, I am okay with software RAID or JBOD.  I just need to know who is supported by Ubuntu 6.13:28

sriramomandusk, u are using the proprietery driver. we can do nothing about it. there has been this history of crashes with nvidia drivers, however dont discard this driver. just restart the comp once u encounter this problem and switch off 3d and other things if u are doing something very serious.15:14

keriTZM, i dont understand why when its turned on that i cannot pickup any wireless networks to choose from, but i can manually punch in the essid and it works.  how stupid15:21
recon69keri: cant really help as i dont use network-manager, but you should be able to roam, maybe disable the wired card.15:21
TZMkeri: That's how roaming mode works--it picks the open network for you. If you want to choose the network, take it out of roaming mode.15:21
mordofdoes anyone know why when i try to ssh into ubuntu server (clean install) it takes almost 20 seconds to respond intiially to the user login?15:22
sriramomanbazhang_, the new HCL PCs ( hclinfosystems.in ) are guaranteed to work with ubuntu and have the most compatible hardware by default, if you buy one with intel processor(i mean that the card would also be by default intel's). i've never seen compositing smoother than that in any other vendors' hardware, including dell's15:22
ReverendNo joy Legend15:22

FruitJoyin the login window, it ask me to configure by myself the X server, but after i chose the display, and graphic card, it doesn't keep the changes15:24

sriramomanchun, it wont work.15:49

sriramomanvlt, when u try it, just verify that X works with the new xorg.conf before aborting ur session15:59
thesaint4444Boohbah: cheers...15:59
sriramomanvlt, u can do that by opening a new session elsewhere.16:00
sriramomanchun, ur grafix cards drivers!16:00
chunbut it's updated..16:00
Picichun: Is this an upgrade from a prevous version of Ubuntu/16:00
TZMubuntu_: OK, well just try rebooting, hit the "esc" key as the computer is first coming up, and it should bring up that grub menu, the scroll down and select "Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.22-14-generic" and it should load fine. We can clean up your menu.lst file if that works.16:00
chunno, live cd 8.0416:00
Picichun: You're running on the LiveCD?16:01
keriever heard of a wireless card not able to detect wireless ap's in gui mode but detects them using command line?16:01
chunno, installed the livecd16:01
chunlol16:01
sriramomanchun, or else don't use 3D! i can defineitely tell u that these errors wont come in the latest stable drivers available in the repositories.16:01
ubuntu_TZM, but had to do it from the usb install --- this ll went down after a hardy upgrade from Gutsy - i have optiplex --dells leading headache for me :(16:01
Picisriramoman: He is using the latest drivers.16:01
Picisriramoman: From the repos.16:01
ubuntu_TZM - ok --- wil try it... ----thanks :)16:01
sriramomankeri, u can use ndiswrapper to use it even in gui mode, provided u have the windows-packaged driver with u.16:02
TZMubuntu_: Wait!16:02
chunhmm16:02
Picichun: Did you touch your xorg.conf at all?16:02
chunhow do i uninstall the driver i have installed right now ?16:02
chunno, i didn't16:02
vltsriramoman: hmmm, where exactly to set the resolution? What do all those numbers in the "mode line" mean?16:02
mikeI keep losing "flash" in firefox and have to reinstall flashplugin-nonfree. Why would this happen??16:02
sriramomanPici, i then think that the modules for his card have some errors.16:02
sriramomanvlt, have u saved the file anyway?16:02
TZMubuntu_: That menu.lst you pastebined doesn't show any Ubuntu installs... where did you get that menu.lst?16:03
chunhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/1641516:03
vltsriramoman: Yes.16:03
kerisriramoman, i have to disable roaming mode then put in my essid manually then it will work, with the native drivers. isnt there any troubleshooting i could to to see why the cool ap's arent showing up?16:03
chunis there anything wrong with my conf?16:03
sriramomanvlt, coz once the file's saved, u can use set the resolutions graphically.16:03
vltsriramoman: Aah, I see ...16:04
mikeI keep losing "flash" in firefox and have to reinstall flashplugin-nonfree. Anyone know why this would keep happening??16:04
LogicalDashI want Evolution to insert the message I'm replying to into my reply, each line preceded by a caret. Right now it's putting everything in this awkward table that I can't get out of to insert inline comments. How do I get the behavior I want?16:04
keriwhere in the file system do i check if my acpi=force sticked or not.16:04
chunso is there something wrong with my conf?16:05
sriramomanchun, just wait for more updates and temporarily avoid using 3d meanwhile. moreover, mail this complaint to the vendor(ATI), as this is proprietery. Pls understand that this is not opensource, so u have to wait for their support16:05
amorphous__TZM -- cant get into grub menu by pressing escape. just into grub prompt :( --- the menu.lst was definately from the install drive though. could there be any reason for it not reading the menu.lst (other then the install to hdd command instead of to /boot?16:05
Picichun: Not that I can see.16:05
semeany difference between the desktop and server platform... I didn't realize the difference and installed the desktop version... its the same software right?16:05
kerii wish i wrote those commands down to check my wireless card inside and out16:05
chunoh ok16:05
semekernel is different but everytyhing else should be the same16:05
seme?16:05
kerii know one was iwconfig16:05
chunthanks, but how do i uninstall the ati driver i have installed now?16:06
sriramomankeri, could u pls repeat what u said without abbreviations? i was unable to understand "essid", "ap's"16:06
Pici!u | sriramoman16:06
AlexCONRADwhat is recommanded to build respins under ubuntu ? I know kickstart (i'm comming from fedora), although I've seen preseed... any recommandation about which to use ?16:06
ubottusriramoman: Unless you're Dutch or Flemish, or a government officier, the letter 'U' is not a pronoun.  If you want to be taken more seriously, please bother to type out the extra letters in "you".  The same goes for "are", "why", "because", "anyone", and so on..16:06
TZMamorphous__: OK please give the exact details on what is on your HD. From your menu.lst it only shows you have one partition with Debian installed, not Ubuntu. Is that correct?16:06
kerisriramoman, ok essid is the name of the wireless network and ap is access point.  or the list of wireless networks available16:07
kerisriramoman, error   essid is what its called for the name of a wireless network.16:07
sriramomanchun, simply don;t use the 3d part of your system. uninstallation is automatic while upgradation/updates and you dont need to manually interfere with anything.16:07
sriramomankeri, did you first disable everything and install the windows driver through ndiswrapper?16:08
sriramomanvlt, is it functioning properly, now?16:09
kerisriramoman, not gone there yet.  i have ndiswrapper installed and the winxp driver ready to put in.  how do i first blacklist the native driver16:09
Picichun: You could try using envyng if you are havign issues with the stock restricted drivers16:10
chunhow do i run a .run file lol16:10
amorphous__TZM no. there is only one system installed - but will be 2 later - Grub2 puts debian in to the menu.lst by default. Grub1 doesn't work on Dell optiplex (think it's a bios bug)16:10
lordnoidwhat if you delete all panels, can you get them back easily?16:10
vltsriramoman: No, I saved the file, ran `dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg` but it didn't ask me for resolutions. Instead it deleted the lines I'd just added. :(16:10
Jake2point0hello this is keri16:11
fellunanyone has any ubuntu working with a 63/64mb ram computer?16:11
sriramomanvlt, do not run dpkg. use the graphical preferences->screen resolutions once you paste the lines again16:11
Jake2point0im going to start with disabling i guess the native drivers for the wireless card16:11
KAMI_Workhi!16:11
TZMamorphous__: So is Debian installed or not? Please be clear. :)16:12
KAMI_WorkCan you please add OpenMortal to Ubuntu Repos16:12
Jake2point0thats cool that xchat is finally free for windows16:12
KAMI_Work?16:12
vltsriramoman: Why can't I set the resolution _before_ I need ti use it?16:12
vlt*to16:12
sriramomankeri, simply uninstall the associated driver through synaptic. you have to do it only if you are very much sure that winxp drivers are not being utilised, though!16:12
neenaofflinefellun: Ubuntu Lite? http://ubuntulite.tuxfamily.org/16:12
KAMI_Workfor example to universe16:12
Lynetfellun: xubuntu might perhaps work. Not sure. If it works you will have to use the alternate cd text-mode install.16:13
BlinnyHow do I disable hostname tab autocompletion in bash? I want to keep the filename tab autocompletion.16:13
amorphous__sorry TZM - no - debian is not installed. Only 1 system. upgrade from gutsy to hardy.16:13
sriramomanvlt, X has to always be restarted in a particular session to activate the new xorg.conf.16:13
sriramomanneenaoffline, hi here16:13
neenaofflinefellun: I used 5.10 for quite a few months on a P3 with 64MB RAM ...16:13
neenaofflinesriramoman: hi16:13
vltsriramoman: I restarted X several times already.16:13
TZMamorphous: OK, so Ubuntu Hardy is installed on that HD, even though the Grub2 menu.lst says it's Debian? Is this correct?16:14
sriramomanvlt, did you do so with the lines i told in xorg.conf?16:14
sriramomanTZM, yes, since hardy is debian-based.16:15

sparkyymordof, Its all because of the proprietary nature of that industry.  Closed hardware and until recently closed drivers.  Nvida and ATI are getting better.  They should just open up the drivers or just release consistently quality drivers for Linux...16:30
mordofchun: since i got my vid card i didn't even both trying to put linux on that machine, just windows..16:30
natalisushkasriramoman, I just finished updating and restarted, and still having the same damn problem!16:30
freethinkermy systems some time also get very slow and i have to rebbot16:30

TailsfanOK, because I have the .inf files on my Windows Partition, I will be installing via Wubi, to make sure I don't mess up Windows16:30
anirudh0Da91, try pinging google.com16:31
funkyHatanirudh0: why would they need gecko for ies4linux? Doesn't make sense to me :/16:31
sriramomanmordof, the summary is that for literally all gfx cards except probably VIA, linux is better in drivers. I dont know any of my frnz for whom aero has worked perfectly. so how will it even work with games on?16:31
thesaint4444anirudh0: hey, many thanks... moving the entry so it was under the admin entry worked... I have been messing about with that for over a day! many thanks.16:31
sparkyymordof, Its getting better.  Ubuntu is also going to make that easier than any other distro.  The Free software guys don't tend to help to get a big compromise on moving forward on this either.  Sometimes we have to work with companies until they move toward a more OPEN model16:31

oedstjanbazhang_, those wiki-pages do not contain information about my specific problem. I already established a connection between my ubuntu system and the other windows systems. I just can't browse them in nautilus.17:58

m1rsoundray: not that i moan, but if i want give my friend a cd to try ubuntu, i surley wouldnt like that he must pass xorg editing to get resolution working , if u understand what i mean...18:16

MrObviousMaximLevitsky: Eh I just use it for e-mail. I don't use it like that. :\18:17

TZMcygoku: OK let's start there then... hang on.20:53
MadHagwhat must I do to have auto login?20:53
traubisodahi all20:54
traubisodawhat do I need if I'd like to write pascal programs under ubuntu?20:54
minimecMadHag: gksudo gdm-setup There is an Option I think20:54
andrera friend of mine has a internal server still with edgy (6.10) installed... i know support has been discontinued in 04-25-08... but he needs to install a single package there.... the problem is... the repository (not updates) dissapeared from archives.ubuntu.com... anyone know a way to get packages?20:54
TZMcygoku: Do "gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist" and add "b43" and "bcm43xx" each on its own line at the end of that file.20:55
MadHagminimec, ah yes, I remember now, btw s there an issue with gdm, takes a long time to load sometimes20:55
TZMcygoku: And then pastebin that file just so I can check it to make sure everything looks OK.20:56
cygokuTZM : Done, after ?20:56
MrPinkminimec: ok Ill try, stay tuned :D20:56
TZMcygoku: ^^20:57
cygoku:/20:57
Sal_e#list20:57
MrKeunerTZM: unfortunately it proposes dr.geo in every xml file20:57
TZMcygoku: Please pastebin that file just so I can check it to make sure everything looks OK.20:58
MrKeunerTZM: no matter if the extension is different or not20:58
TZMMrKeuner: So you mean when you run .fgeo and .xml files they both open in that Dr. Geo program now?20:58
MrKeunerTZM: yes20:58
cygokuTZM : http://pastebin.com/m6a4c70da20:59
TZMMrKeuner: Well, like I mentioned you could always write a really short shell script that would just check the extension of the file and load Dr. Geo only if the extension is .fgeo, and load something else if it is .xml. But probably you don't have any experience with bash scripting, right? :)21:00
cygoku( I hope the Christ this will work )21:00
blummhello21:01
MrKeunerTZM: I do and I can but I do not think that's an effective of doing this21:01
TZMcygoku: OK, what does "ndiswrapper -l" return?21:01
blummanybody familiar with pftp-shit ?21:01
MrPinkminimec: I followed your instructions and the Configuration Instructions, but nothing changed21:01
cygokuTZM : Nothing :S21:01
blummi get weird error messages while installing21:01
MrKeunerTZM: I was hoping that gnome would have a library of identifying files better than file utility21:01
Piciblumm: Please watch the langauge here, thanks21:01
MrPink(most of the stuff I had to do had to do with the keyboard any way o.O )21:01
TZMMrKeuner: I agree that it is a hack, but it would work nonetheless. If you find a better way let me know though, seriously. :)21:02
blummPici: sorry21:02
cygokuTZM : No error msg, nothing, just bring me back the line cygoku@laptorz:~$21:02
TZMcygoku: So did you install the Windows driver for your card with ndisgtk or at the command line?21:02
blummbut pftp-shit is the real name of that modification of pftp21:03
MrKeunerTZM: are you positive that GNOME is using file utility to differentiate files?21:03
minimecMrPink: Did You get a ligin screen? or what...21:03
Bappenatorhello21:03
cygokuTZM : No, we haven't done any of that yet.21:03
TZMMrKeuner: No not at all, sorry I wasn't trying to say that. I really don't know how Gnome does it truthfully.21:03
MrPinkminimec: Yeah I always got a login screen... resolution and everything is fine... the point is that everything is laaagy... like when I drag windwos and stuff21:03
blummman irssi21:03
cygokuTZM : How can I install a Windows Driver under Ubuntu HH :/ ?21:03
blummsorry21:03
MrPinkminimec: Ever since I activated the restricted drivers... with the "standard" drivers everything worked fine21:04
andrera friend of mine has a internal server still with edgy (6.10) installed... i know support has been discontinued in 04-25-08... but he needs to install a single package there.... the problem is... the repository (not updates) dissapeared from archives.ubuntu.com... anyone know a way to get packages?  historical archive or something like that?21:04
minimecMrPink: If you just uninstall the restricted driver again?21:04
MrPinkwhere or how do I do that... :-/21:04
TZMcygoku: OK can you download ndisgtk and we'll go from there? ndiswrapper is what will allow you to run your wireless card using a Windows driver. Do you have the Windows drivers for your card?21:04
Bappenatorhi guys, could someone please advise how i can see how much disk space I have left on a mount? im using ubuntu server so console only..21:04
nosrednaekimBappenator: "df"21:05
Bappenatorty21:05
Rat409Bappenator: df -h21:05
MrPinkBappenator: df21:05
cygokuTZM : ndisgtk is already installed.21:05
TZMcygoku: Have you run it yet?21:05
cygokuI did run it yes.21:05
BeawolfeHow can I add an entry to grub so I can switch between OS's?21:06
TZMcygoku: Did it ask you where your Windows driver was (.inf file)?21:06
MrPinkminimec: Can you explain how?21:06
cygokuTZM : No it didn't.21:06
TZMcygoku: Ok please give more information--what happened when you ran it?21:06
minimecMrPink: JUst go back in the restricted drivers menu and deactivate it. It will remove the driver from xorg.conf21:07
cygokuTZM : A window open, I guess I have to click that button first.21:07
TZMcygoku: OK, so can you do what the program tells you to do?21:08
chadHi, I really need someones help.  Im having touble with hooking up a LAN connection between 2 computers.  both are runnung ubuntu 8.04.  can anyone help with how to hook them up?  Downstairs, it is a wired hookup, upstairs its wireless.   both use one modem (2WIRE08) and it is broadban.  PlEASE HELP!

zeroXtenlo all. Any reason why my ubuntu theme has gone all gnome defaulty, and I can't change it (ie. Human is still selected)21:08
zeroXten?21:08
cygokuTZM : Yes I can, I am trying to download that driver first, but this wireless only gives me 1 Mb / s, that's why I need to do this.21:08
MrPinkminimec: When I tried that that totally screwed things up.... wrong Reslotion etc.21:09
TZMcygoku: OK well let me know when you get the driver downloaded.21:09
cygokuTZM : Pages takes 5 minutes to load, you could direct link me ! :)21:09
MrPinkminimec: hmm weird... I am sure I activated the Restricted Drivers, but in the menu it shows me "not in use" :-?21:10
chadHello??? can someone please help me!21:10
TZMcygoku: Don't you have the CD for you wireless card that came with your computer?21:10
MrPink!ask21:10
ubottuPlease don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)21:10
barbarellachad:just ask21:10
minimecMrPink: Reboot your computer.21:10
MrPinkminimec: Complete reboot? (I think I've done that since then, but I will try21:11

amorphous_anybody know anything about sound in firefox/browsers? i have no sound from audio sgtreams, but sound from vid streams. ---new hardy upgrade.21:11
zeroXtenchad, you'd need to be more specific21:11
cygokuTZM : And right now it's screwing my day and my boss isn't happy.21:11
MrPinkminimec: So make sure restricted Drivers are NOT active?21:11
amorphous_Have switched all drivers to Alsa in Sound config, and install libflashsupport, but no joy21:11
zeroXtenchad: what are the computers connected to? is the downstairs one connected to the dsl modem/router? Also, what is your wireless AP?21:11
barbarellachad:for internet connection, file sharing?21:12
minimecMrPink: Looks like your xserver-xorg configuration on the console was successfull but you are still runnung the old gdm-session21:12
TZMcygoku: So you don't know where to get the Windows driver for your card?21:12
MrPinkI killed GDM and had to log in new again... but ok Ill reboot21:12
MaskedOnenvm i got it, that is one f'd up hdd to get out lol21:12
chadzeroXten, they are connected to a dsl modem.  one is wireless, the other wired.  I need to be able to share files between them like in windows, where you click on they're computer from 'my network'21:13

TZMcygoku: Can't you just download them on another computer and put them on a USB stick or CD instead?21:14
chadzeroXten, also, lierox doesnt work via LAN because they cant connect.  Do I download Samba?  And if so, how do I use it (if there is a GUI to configure it ill figure it out)21:14
zeroXtenchad: are you asking how to get the actual IP communication? or specifically how to share files?21:14
erUSUL!samba | chad21:14
ubottuchad: Samba is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT.21:14
chadbasicly to connect21:14
zeroXtenright, so your machines can't even talk to eachother? e.g. ping?21:15
MrPinkminimec: No difference after reboot :-(21:15
MrPinkminimec: Should I post my Xorg.conf to pastebin ?21:15
minimecMrPink: Yeah ;)21:15
MrPinkminimec: Sorry for the hassle :-/21:15
minimecMrPink: np21:16
chadubottu, will this work from a ubuntu - to -ubuntu OS connection?21:16
ubottuchad: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :)21:16
zeroXtenchad: yes it will21:16
BeawolfeCan someone please tell me how to add an entry in grub loader to include a 2nd OS on a seperate drive?21:16
zeroXtenchad: although, nfs might be simpler ;)21:16
cygokuTZM : No, it's my personal laptop and no one else as the same.21:16
Devastater-_-" this has probally been asked a million times, but I am way to tired to look everywhere. My PC (sitting next to me) has a WMP54G linksys wireless card in it... how can I get this thing working -_-"21:16
chadzeroxten, so which one do i use?21:16
Dasmooverhello, i have installed compiz and proprietary drivers for my nvidia geforce 8400 GS, all the effects are working flawlessly, only thing is my desktop is unresponsive to change, can anyone help me?21:16

eitreachhow would I go about installing KDE 4.1 beta in Ubuntu Hardy?21:17
jedimindcarefully21:17
erUSULBeawolfe: which OS ?21:17
zeroXtenchad: if you're likely to need to access the files from a windows machine, use Samba.21:17
jedimindi know, that was helpfl21:17
jedimindful*, damnit i cant type21:17
Bappenatorguys, Im getting error messages appearing whilst copying from an 80 gig ntfs disk to a 160 gig ext3... stuff like DRDY ERR and ICRC ABRT. anything to worry about? it seems to be continuing to copy anyway...21:17
BeawolfeI have Ubuntu 7.10 and am adding PCLinuxOX200721:17
zeroXtenstop using jedi mindtricks to type then jedimind ;)21:17
zeroXten"this isn't the key you're looking for"21:18
chadzeroXten, both computers use ubuntu 8.04 for everything, but how would i connect them both? using which one?21:18
eitreachthe force does not convey to irc standards.21:18
TZMcygoku: I think if that is your attitude you'll have to get someone else to help you.21:18
MrKeunerTZM: GNOME can indeed be educated to differentiate between different XML files. This is what I got so far. I'll look further when I have time. take care21:18
erUSULBeawolfe: it should be an entry similar to one of the ubuntu ones but you have to put the correct file names for the kernel and initrd21:18
zeroXtenchad: both would need samba installed if you'd want to share in both directions. but unless both have network connectivity its gonna be kinda hard21:18
Dasmooveranyone have any ideas?21:19

Rat409!cron | zerodamage21:20
ubottuzerodamage: cron is a way to schedule execution of software/scripts. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CronHowto  -  There is also a decent Howto at http://www.tech-geeks.org/contrib/mdrone/cron&crontab-howto.htm21:20
MrPinkminimec: Did you get ? (just to make sure we didn't miss each other :D )21:20
minimecMrPink: You are definitly using the the default driver and not the restricted driver. What card do you have?21:20
MrPinkRadeon 9600 Pro21:20
MrPinkso ATI21:21
erUSULzerodamage: yep put the correct commands "sudo apt-get -q -y update && sudo apt-get -q -y upgrade" i guess21:21
zerodamageRat409:  I know how to do cron.  The tutorials say how to do it but it doesn't work.  It cannot find something and fails to complete the process.21:21

amorphous_i still only have sound in video in browsers ---nothing for audio streams :/21:22
zeroXtenchad: ignoring linux for a second, how good is your networking knowledge?21:22
minimecMrPink: Ok ;) I have a Radeon 9600 Mobile. CAn you run compiz?21:22
MrPinkyes21:22
BeawolfeerUSUL: I was in last night and asked and was told when I installed PCLinuxOS to not let it install grub or it would overwrite original and I would lose the drive so I stopped the install from writing the grub for the new install and now it doesnt show up at all21:22
zeroXtenjedimind, shame i couldn't work out how to do the hand shifty thingy21:22
JvAHi! I have an encrypted file system using crypttab. However, the filesystem is never fsck:ed upon start up. Why's this? How do I enable fsck after I've decrypted the volume?21:22
jedimindzeroXten,  its not that hard to be honest, but the hand is just a tool, the real shifty part comes from the soul21:23
zerodamageerusul:  I really do no twant it set to quiet.  I have the output dump to a log file so I can be assured it works.  It digves me a dpkg related error about not finding a path.21:23
MrPinkminimec: Compiz seems to work fine... just when I open / close or drag windows it laaags really bad ( I thought it could be the screens refresh rates that were reseted or something, but when I look under Screenresolution it shows me 75 Hz which should be ok, right? )21:23
minimecMrPink: I would dactivate it with the ATI driver of xorg. The restricted Driver is much better with 3D but has a bug with the ATI 9600 series.21:23

danzasmehmood, probably22:17
SlartTerabyte: oh..it might not have been updated for the newer plugin from adobe..22:17
Terabyteslart so what should i do?22:18
SlartTerabyte: then I don't really know.. perhaps you can download it directly from adobe's site...22:18
Terabyteneeds to be done over cmd22:18
lusius;_; damn! i was just about to watch "the shining" for the first time -.- and both mplayer and vlc keeps showing just half of the screen -.-22:18
lusiusthe rest goes like, outside, problem? ;_;22:19
SlartTerabyte: the flashplugin-nonfree package downloads the actual plugin from adobe's site... but adobe have updated the plugin since the package was made so it's not the same stuff from the website any more..22:19

sobersabreI've got a problem with ssh and keys.22:22
sobersabreI'm trying to log into ssh server as root via public-private key mechanism22:22
ompaulsobersabre, if you didn't use language and actually expressed on one line what you wanted to do maybe I would be able to help22:22
sobersabreI've generated both keys on my ubuntu 8.04 (updated to the latest as of now ssh/ssl )22:23
sobersabreand ran sshd with LogLevel DEBUG322:23
sobersabrethis is the output:22:23
sobersabrehttp://pastebin.com/d703f5bba22:23
danbhfiveSlart: yeah, if the package d/l's the plugin from the website, why would it become different from whats on the website?22:23
DaveKongDoes anyone use zsnes? I found out stuff about the sound but still don't know how to get it to use my controller.22:23
mshankswell that didn't go well22:23
sobersabreroot cannot login, it's being asked for a password.22:23
ompaulsobersabre, we don't have root22:24
wild_oscarhowdi! is there any repository with compiz 0.7.6?22:24
Terabytesuppose I have an URL, how can I download a file over the cmd line22:24
JuJuBeeAny ideas why I am not able to shut down properly?  When I click on the Turn-OFF->Shutdown, it seems to hang.  I left it for over 30 minutes and it never shut down. Today I did sudo shutdown now from CLI and got the ksplash with progress bar as if it were stuck on 90% during Start UP rather than Shut down.22:24
JuJuBeeStayed there...22:24
frostburnTerabyte, wget,curl22:24
mshanksfirst time, I run a check CD and it's fine, then I ran a memtest for ~15 minutes and that was fine. start the install, it finishes loading, then it reboots22:24
wild_oscarJuJuBee: yes22:24
mshanksSo I tried it again, and it hangs at ~95%22:24
JuJuBeeCare to share?22:24
sobersabreompaul: I don't understand.... so it's kicked by PAM ?22:24
sobersabreI mean, I can run "sudo su -"22:24
sobersabreand become root.22:24
mshanksI reboot manually, and I get a bios error (looking for cd/floppy but can't find either after I take out ubuntu cd cause it was hanging on that)22:24
BobBhi, do i need inbound port 22 open if I want to connect to an SSH server?22:24
Slartdanbhfive: it downloads the plugin from adobes site.. and expects it to have a certain md5sum.. ie... the package was created in say december -07 and expects to find version X of the plugin.. with some special md5sum .22:24
wild_oscarJuJuBee: system - session - check if "power daemon" is turned off22:24
HappyHaterI just installed vmware-server, when I try to open the vmware server console I get this error: 'failed to execute child process 'vmware' (permission denied)'... what do I need to do to fix that?22:25
mshanksI reboot again, try to install ubuntu yet again, and it reboots itself22:25
sobersabreso, if SSH allows root "without-password" via public key, why would I not be able to login ?22:25
mshanksany thoughts? :X22:25
wild_oscarJuJuBee: if it's off, turn it on22:25
danbhfiveSlart: ah, ok, I think I get it22:25
ompaulsobersabre, you don't need root you should log in as yourself and upgrade your access as required using sudo22:25
abysslo everybody i switched to ubuntu from the commercial vista! all looks very well im really exited about ubuntu but exists there any type of written text reconize daemon which scans my writings on tablet?22:25
Slartdanbhfive: but adobe has since updated the plugin on their site so when the package downloads the plugin today it gets version Y.. with a new md5sum22:25
chowardHello, what would be the best way to have an Ubuntu 8.04 box email me it's IP address? It is on cable and the IP changes from time to time.22:25
sobersabreompaul: I have a bunch of scripts, and they must be run directly as root from specific host.22:25
Slartdanbhfive: and they haven't updated the package for the older versions of ubuntu.. it works on hardy.. or it works until adobe changes the plugin again22:25
sobersabreI don't care much about security in that sense.22:25
tore_choward: dyndns22:25
sobersabreit's a matter of convenience.22:25
tore_use a dynamic hostname22:26
tore_.. hostname for the dynamic ip I mean22:26
Slartabyss: I doubt it.. but there might be22:26
sobersabreompaul: so, do I now edit ssh in pam.d ?22:26
ompaulsobersabre, please don't use an enter after each couple of words22:26
tore_it's a bunch of clients u can use, that updates the hostname automaticly22:26
danbhfiveSlart: yeah, I didn't realize it checks the md5sum22:26
ompaulsobersabre, let me look at that paste again22:26
sobersabreok, sorry. so do you know why ssh doesn't allow me in ?22:26
JuJuBeewild_oscar : says start at boot, but currently not running...22:26
abyssSlart, and how it could be named? :)22:26
HappyHatercan anybody give me some help with vmware-server?22:27
danbhfivechoward: zoneedit.com is another website for that kinda thing22:27
sobersabreit seems as if the public key is rejected, as if being generated by the vulnerable ssh server.22:27
Slartchoward: there is a mailing program for the command line.. you could use that together with.. say ifconfig and some bash magic22:27
wild_oscarJuJuBee: tick it22:27
chowardSlart that was my first thought.22:27
ompaulsobersabre, yeah you did not set it up right from what I am reading give me three or four mins and I will be back and ask you to go #ubuntu-classroom to check out how you set it up and then advise you on changes cos it is a simple but multi lined process22:27
Slartabyss: OCR something perhaps22:27
Devastateris there a way that I could get my USB headset (5.1 headset) to work properally22:28
chowardI am just iffy on the cli mail client to use to send the output of ifconfig.22:28
Devastaterand my webcam (which is actually a digital camera)22:28
JuJuBeewild_oscar : sorry? in System Settings - > System Services ?  Tick?22:28
sobersabreompaul: thanks, you can tell me in the sense that I'm sure I'll understand what to do as long as you tell me what, "i know my way around", but I am missing something PAMish probably.22:28
sobersabrejoining ubuntu-classroom though, as you've requested.22:29

BCM43angshu369: what do you mean, make a web page?23:07
^root^Xecuter: nope, I want root :P23:07
Starnestommyangshu369: you first need a web server program that can serve pages.  apache can do that23:07
angshu369i mean23:07
Starnestommy!root | ^root^23:07
ubottu^root^: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo23:07

You can also export decent HTML pages from OpenOffice documents. :-)23:09

ArthurArchnix^root^: Ok... well, Ubuntu feels so strongly that you shouldn't enable root they actually have a policy that says whoever tells you how to enable root, needs to be available 24/7 to handle any support requests you have... because strange things can happen. Etc.. so, you can certainly find out. People have done it. But I don't think anyone will violate the CoC to tell you how.23:10
AcornAcorndoes anyone know of a way you could compare two large directories to make sure that they are a perfect match? using hashes or something? is there an app for ubuntu?23:11

SoritongHi all. I'm having some questions before setting Ubuntu up as a secondary OS on my computer. I currently have Vista installed on my IDE drive, which is primary, and I have most of my apps and music based on a secondary SATA drive. How hard would it be to set up Ubuntu to dual boot off of the SATA, and where would I install GRUB?23:19

NarkotixAgent_I installed ubuntu 8 this afternoon and deleted the tray that docked my minimized progs and my mozilla, how do i get that back? :(23:24
StarnestommyNewfieLinux: NAT is used for sharing internet connections23:24
PushnellNAT stands for "network address translation" -- it's one aspect of what a router does, and I think that that's what you want your linux to do for your xbox23:24
STSXArthurArchnix: Yes, you're right, but would you have to change X Windows and recompile to get rid of that? I guess if you're really lucky maybe you just need to set a "XORG_LOG=false" type variable somewhere. :)23:24

StarnestommyRoshanK: I have both installed. What about them do you need to know?23:29
SoritongIf I choose the "Install within Windows" options from the burned CD, how does that work since it doesn't create a partition? Is it basically installing a VM version of itself?23:29
NarkotixAgent_I have 2 panels at the bottom of my screen23:30
RoshanKStarnestommy: I have ubuntu with gnome installed right now and was hoping to try out kde as well but would like to keep gnome23:30
matthewstarnestommy: actually, that first photo is of an older version, but all the photos of the version i'm using are the same23:30
ben_underscoreNarkotixAgent_: then scroll right down and select window list - this is the applet that windows go to when you minimise them23:30
RoshanKStarnestommy:: can i install kde as well and just change desktop environments at login window?23:30
nrotkisanyone use openbox, get nmapplet docked somewhere?23:30
StarnestommyRoshanK: yes23:30
XecuterNarkotixAgent_, do you have the upper tray?23:30
NarkotixAgent_no i moved it to the bottom like you said23:30
RoshanKStarnestommy: so this wouldnt affect my gnome installation and programs should still run such as compiz correct?23:31
Starnestommymatthew: you may have accidentally changed a setting that made one of those menus disappear23:31

PushnellHey all.  Trying to dip my toes in linux, used to run BSD years ago, so trying to install Kubuntu-4 with Wubi.  The installation proceeds fine in windows, I reboot into Kubuntu, and the GUI shows me install-type stuff happening.  Then I see the splash screen again for a few seconds, and the system reboots.  After that, the Kubuntu boot always comes up with "Error 16: Inconsistent filesystem structure" which google says is gr23:31
NarkotixAgent_got it :)23:31
navetzhow can I check the speed of my internet connection through the command line?23:31
STSXSoritong: I believe it uses Wubi.23:31
Slartrobert__: afaik you'll have to set it to open all the formats one by one23:31
NarkotixAgent_do i have to do that for all my programs or will it do it for me?23:31
StarnestommyPushnell: sounds like a currupt filesystem.  You'll need to run fsck on that filesystem23:31
robert__afaik in the terminal?23:32
Slartrobert__: right click on a media-file in nautilux.. properties.. open with23:32
matthewStarnestommy: How could I fix that? Would reinstalling it work?23:32
Xecuternavetz, download something big :P23:32
ben_underscoreNarkotixAgent_: what do you mean?23:32
Starnestommymatthew: that might work23:32
Slartrobert__: afaik = as far as I know23:32
robert__not valid in the terminal23:32
NarkotixAgent_now i see my mozilla window ok, but when I open new programs and minimize will they go to the tray23:32
SoritongAnyone know how the "Install Within windows" option works? Is it basically a VM?23:32
NarkotixAgent_?23:32
Slartrobert__: I don't know of a way to do it from the terminal23:32
PushnellStarnestommy: I've uninstalled and reinstalled Wubi/Kubuntu, and the install process always ends the same.  I have a Knoppix disk handy, can I mount the wubi partition from that?23:32
robert__i did it before, forgot how though23:32

gleblancAnybody seen an error like this before?23:36
pufffrostburn: how do I check on direct rendering?23:36

gleblancBUG: soft lockup - CUP#1 stuck for 11s! [modprobe:1275]23:36

AcornAcornHow do i install a downloaded application, ./configure didn't work23:36

STSXtommy_: You probably need to add it to your /etc/fstab file to mount on startup--is that what you are looking for?23:38
AcornAcornStarnestommy: I did, it said that I should go to the extracted files and do ./configure, but terminal says "configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables"23:38
StarnestommyAcornAcorn: install build-essential23:38
tommy_STSX, im looking for my internal NTFS HDD which Ubuntu 7.10 used to show .  What do I add to /etc/fstab?23:39
=== marco_ is now known as Marco
STSXtommy_: Well do you want to just temporarily mount it or do you want to have it automatically mount at startup?23:39
kdavidDoes Kubuntu 8.04 work with scanners?23:40

ArthurArchnixIf you look at the manpage of Xorg, you can see that you can edit the logfile of xorg by using a command-line switch. But I'm currently using gdm. Do you think a config or environment variable can be changed?23:41

=== chev_chelios is now known as prodigy
havoquetommy_, sorry mate, here's the right one: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/23:58
gronne"To get the thing communicate with your watch on Linux you'd need the ftdi_sio kernel module and, of course, usb support. Napkin expects sleeptracker port to be at /dev/sleeptracker, which can be done using udev rules. You can also use SLEEPTRACKER_PORT  environment variable to pass the proper device name. See README  file for details. " what does this mumbo-jumbo mean?23:58
Slarttommy_: you need to use sudo.. and some other things... "man mount" will tell you more23:58
NoxixStarnestommy, it says invalid mode root.root23:59
tommy_Slart, I found solution.  I just type sudo mount /dev/sda5 /mnt and now it shows my hidden partition23:59
