gmenelaui tried to installed the advance desktop effects but all i get is W: Failed to fetch... any one ?00:01
Pelowild_oscar,  I recall several ppl asking more or less the same in the first week after the release , so assume it's not just you,   try reinstalling from synaptic and redoing your settings00:02
PeloJasonWoof, you might get them from the /var/log/apt/dpkg log00:02
soundrayBachiir: is this a laptop?00:02
Pelogmenelau, might be an issue with the repositories server ,  try sudo apt-get update first00:03
BachiirSoundray: Yes, an Acer TravelMate 8204.00:03

Pelowill00, sudo apt-get install lirc ?00:03

ShpookI have a 2.5" hdd that I am trying to access via an IDE to USB adapter. This drive crashed in my wife's computer, and I need to extract some data. It's a NTFS drive, and the drive is picked up with lsusb(at least the cable is), but I get nothing with fdisk -l. Is there anyway to force my way into the drive? Or is there no way around it if the drive won't initialize itself?00:05
Bachiirsoundray: no, I haven't tried that.00:05

gmenelauPelo i write only man getselection ?00:06
PeloShpook,   ,  first open a terminal type blkid to get a list of available partitions,   figure out which one is the one for your wife'S hdd,    you need the /dev/*** addy ,00:06
Pelogmenelau, that will get you the manual page for the getselection command00:06
gmenelauPelo i see ok thanks00:07
Pelogmenelau, sorry wrong command ,  but it is similar to that , maybe it's an option of apt ,  try man apt and check in there00:07
soundrayBachiir: I would keep this option in mind as a fallback. The way I understand your Xorg.0.log, it's a quirky card that the fglrx driver isn't managing to get the best performance from. OS Radeon is a bit more conservative and reliable in my experience (although you may not get the same effects).00:08
PeloShpook, got the /dev/ addy of the partition ?00:08
ShpookPelo: There is no allocation for the drive in /dev/, just sda which is my hdd.00:08
PeloShpook, install gparted and see if you can see the drive with that00:08
BachiirSoundray: Thanks for your input. I will keep OS Radeon in mind if I cannot get fglrx working.00:08
ShpookPelo: I never thought of that. Be back in a min :-D00:09
PeloShpook, you do realise that I don'T want you to browse your way to /dev right ? this has nothing to do with the folders yet00:09

BachiirNothing huge, but graphical tasks are incredibly slow. For instance, dragging a window across the screen is jerky (perhaps jumping 10-20% of the screenlength at a time,) and buttons which are designed to flash, in openoffice for instance, may take 5 seconds each to change and input is impossible while these changes occur. Based on my fluxbox slit CPU monitor, my CPU is being stressed much more than before my upgrade to hardy. I attribute t00:19

joni_bachiir.. I cannot say with any reason for saying it.. but I would atleast try removing modules "dbe" "dri" from xorg.conf.. "v4l" shouldnt have any negative effects... the other two i am not sure.. i find evidence that "dri" is for AGP cards.... Soundray.. can a PCI card use AGP bus?00:33

joni_randal... try adding it to sessions?00:40
StorrgieQUESTION: Is there a UI for linux that is in openGL?00:40
randal joni_ how00:40
AdemanCubic: installing.  i have a friend that wants to start developing GUI apps in python, but pygtk support on windows is godawful00:41
randaljoni_:  how to i add it to sessions00:41
soundrayStorrgie: compiz-fusion00:41
joni_use whatever command you use to load it... and go to system perference-sessions00:41
Storrgiesoundray: thank you, any good documentation on installing that windowmanager with ubuntu?00:41
soundrayStorrgie: it's well integrated -- 'System-Preferences-Appearance-Desktop Effects'00:42
Bachii1Joni: removed load "dri". Restarting X.00:42
Storrgiesoundray: I just bought a dell m4300 with a quadra gfx card... I am hoping it does a really nice job with this UI you speak of00:43
soundrayStorrgie: it'll only work once you've enabled 3D acceleration on the driver side.00:43
Storrgiesoundray: so just install normal ubuntu? no Kubuntu or Xubuntu?00:43
soundrayStorrgie: was Ubuntu pre-installed?00:43
shashank[anyone] I have made G-parted live cd , how do i use it without using my drive?00:44
Storrgiesoundray: no, I have yet to recieve the machine... shipped out today.... I will format it when she arrives00:44
soundrayStorrgie: I'd say ubuntu, but I'm biased00:44
amstellashashank : what are you trying to do?00:44
Randunihi all00:44
RanduniI have a question, it's not about ubuntu specifically00:44
CubicAdeman: I dunno really, Ubuntu/Debian is pretty easy to install (easier than windows). Just add the required python libs (kde and gtk) and he's good to go.00:44
shashankamstella, parrition my drive to install vista.00:44
Randunibut I need a free data recovery program so that I can recover files on a cd00:44
Randuniit would be nice if it's open source..00:44
soundrayStorrgie: KDE is a bit of a moving target at the moment00:45
Randunibut it's  not absolutely necessary00:45
cn28hdd ?00:45
Gralcoshashank you need to use you cd drive to use g-parted00:45
Storrgiesoundray: I am running ubuntu server and ubuntu desktop for VM's and really like it... but with VM you dont get graphics acceleration.... so now that I have that capability I would like to take FULL advantage of it00:45
AdemanCubic: oh yeah for sure, it's just he's currently on windows, and i'm trying to figure out the best way to get him ubuntu for development :-)00:45
amstellashashank : you have ubuntu installed right now and you want to partition your drive to install vista.....is that right?00:45
RanduniI need it for windoZe00:45
shashankamstella, yes00:45
soundrayStorrgie: I have reasonably well working OpenGL acceleration in VMware fusion...00:45
Storrgiesoundray: really? i never played with getting hardware acceleration on my VM's... dont really need it for the work i am doing... but i want to make the plunge with linux for good. So I bought a machine for it this week00:46
sudobashwhat kind or PC?00:46
soundrayStorrgie: congrats. Try to get a refund for your Windows ;)00:47
amstellashashank : I will assume you do not know how to edit the MBR so I would suggest this.  use gparted on live cd to seperate 3 partitions, fat32(windows), swap (linux swap), ext2 (linux).  Then apply the partitions and restart the computer00:47
Storrgiedell m430000:47
CubicAdeman: So you would like a website to install the basic programming env?00:47
amstellafrom there install vista first and then ubuntu again00:47

jasonlfunkHello - I decided I was going to install windows on an extra partition that I had, and before I was able to install windows it decided it would be fun to delete all of my logical partitions. no data was written to the disk so all of my data is still there. What is the eaiseist way to restore my partition table?00:47
amstellashashank : if you install ubuntu then vista it will screw up the MBR and you won't have grub installed00:47
AdemanCubic: no, just an easy way to get ubuntu into a vm on his machine, since he's certainly not ready to switch00:48
sudobashi bet it is torrented00:48
bazhangamstella, shashank unless this is a ssd, then ext3 would be a better choice from ext200:48
soundraysudobash: I paid $80 (but I think it's come down since then)00:48

sudobashport forward 80 to ubuntu STATIC IP00:50
amstellasnoopcatxl : are you on ubuntu right nwo?00:50
AdemanCubic: :-p, well the ULTIMATE goal is just to get him programming using pygtk, but pygtk seems to be horribly broken, or at least a pain on windows (considering how many dependencies gtk+ has, that kind of stuff without a package manager is nothing short of hellish)00:50
sudobashand turn off remote management on your router00:50
Subwaycn28h: Yeah. I'm using an older Ubuntu (Dapper) and just wanted to see if Gaim would still work.00:50
Subwaybefore going to Pidgin00:50

amstella7.10 or 7.400:51
joni_bachiil.. whats the results?00:51
Subwaycn28h: It prints the error in the terimanl and gaim crashes after showing the buddy list00:51
snoopcatxluhh 7.1000:51
cn28hSubway, likely to fix it you would have to modify the program source then00:51
rkviraniAnyone know alot about ACPI issues on laptops?00:51

Subwaycn28h: Which I  have no experience in :(00:51
stucan anyone tell me how to change the startup order of applications that are started in sessions ??00:52
amstellai would installed transmission (sudo apt-get install transmission), then load up a torrent from the ubuntu website and let it go, that way you are not taking up bandwidth on the server and sharing with others at the same time00:52
amstellasnoopcatxl ; that was to you sorry00:52
* cerebrate_ agrees with amstella00:52
snoopcatxlhow do i load a torrent?00:52
cn28hSubway, pointer is a type of variable that references a memory location in C and C++.  Bad pointer likely means it's pointing to something invalid, which explains your crash00:52

cerebrate_shashank: same thing the page file is used for in windows01:09
stushashank, when your pc needs more memory and has run out of RAM it starts to use virtual RAM (hard drive space)01:09
bazhang!swap | shashank01:09
ubottushashank: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info01:09
amstellashashank : its reserved memory01:09
[omni]amstella: yes, and the way linux uses ram as you file cache (have a look at free(1)'s man page) you can quickly use up your memory as cache. You need the swap space to dump cache should that memory be quickly needed01:09
amstellashashank : you do not need 4gb of swap, that is crazy01:09
Subwaystu: and swap is awesome01:09
bazhangshashank, go read that link01:09
[omni]of course that's only one situation where it's important to have double the memory01:09
* cerebrate_ agrees with amstella.01:09
=== fale_ is now known as fale
cerebrate_I've never had swap larger than 2 gb's01:10
amstellaomni : i agree with you, but he is a first time user and does not need to allocate that much memory01:10

stuah thanks [omni]01:11
stuwill that change the order it starts in too ?01:11
Ademanlibervisco: i have mixed feelings, it's rock solid on 3 machines i put it on, terrible on this machine (a crappy laptop with failing hardware, so i just assumed it was hardware)01:12
[omni]SeaPhor: in most cases you'll be fine. but if you run into a situation where you're using all your memory then need to swap (or clear cache) you'll run into issues if the kernel can't kill processes fast enought o mach the demand01:12
PauloZumbaSorry, hi folks, anybody may tell me a good softphone sip/voip.01:12

BCM43yojesus: does it crash?01:13
Ademanyojesus: hrm, hardy or gutsy?01:13
yojesushardy01:13
liberviscoNow I suddenly have a problem with GNOME (at least I hope it's GNOME limited) where panels don't work (unclickable), nautilus crashes or freezes, firefox and some applications wont start at all.. and all this even after removing .config, .gconf, .gconfd, .gnome and .gnome201:13
Ademanyojesus: huh, hold on i'm trying it now01:13
[omni]the first time i ran into this was when I brilliantly decided that server with 16GB of RAM didn't need swap. Well this server was in part server files over NFS so the memory backed file cache was pretty important. I couldn't figure out why it kept locking up.01:13
BCM43yojesus: does it crash?01:13
[omni]SeaPhor: do what exactly?01:13
bazhanglibervisco, there a support question in there or just venting01:13
amstellai libervisco : thats exactly why i went back to 7.10 - to me gutsy is a rock01:13
Ademanyojesus: this certainly isn't a *solution* but firefox 3 beta five is AWESOME, it brought me back to firefox after 2 years of using other browsers01:13
yojesusno i just want to change the boot splash screen because right now it doesnt have one and it makes it feel like it takes longer to load01:13
yojesusok01:14
SeaPhorclear cache,,, and btw,,, my memory peaks but swap never moves,,,???01:14
SeaPhorclear cache,,, and btw,,, my memory peaks but swap never moves,,,??? [omni]01:14
amstellafirefox 3 is great and it will be great when released but why release a beta version in an official release, that just doens't make any sense01:14
Ademanyojesus: oh yeah, and it might help even to test if youtube works in firefox 3, since if it doesn't work in either that narrows the problem down01:14
liberviscobazhang, well to be honest there is.. it's a totally weird issue and came up literally overnight (I don't know if I accidentally did something before shutting down that would cause this, but it's still weird)..01:14
[omni]SeaPhor: you don't, your kernel clears the cache for you01:14
amstellait doesn't fully support everything so why release it01:14
yojesusthe viedos work on firefox01:14
yojesusbut not on opera01:14
bazhangthis is getting a bit offtopic-->for chat please head to #ubuntu-offtopic01:15
liberviscobazhang, only thing that did happen is my comp wouldn't turn on properly at first until I unplugged and then plugged back in (a low quality PSU), but I'm not sure how would that cause this, and Fedora which I have on another partition works fine01:15
liberviscoSo I'm pretty much puzzled at this point :S01:16
caesa1HELP! I just spent like three hours filling out a form. After I submitted the form, I discovered that my session timed out. Clicking "back" in a new tab doesn't take me back to the form (with all of the information I filled out). What can I do to rescue the info?01:16
randalhow do i install this tar these are the instructions Download and decompress the source .tar.bz2, move to the newly created directory (cd opt/cairo-dock/trunk/cairo-dock) and type:01:16
randalautoreconf -isvf && ./configure --prefix=/usr/local && make01:16
randalsudo make install01:16
SeaPhor[omni], swap is always at 0% usage, even when memory usage is at 22% by programs and 33% by cache?01:16
[omni]SeaPhor: the kernel is pretty good at memory management, so it only uses swap if it really needs to. What do you mean by peaks? it's normal for all the memory to be used on linux system if there's heavy file activity. A lot of that would show up as cache which typically doesn't get swapped (what's the point of writing a disk cache back to disk)01:16
bazhanglibervisco, if gutsy is the right choice for you then you should use that; but apart from specific support issues (re: hardy) chat is in #ubuntu-offtopic01:16

[omni]amstella: it's like insurance. it's only a waste until the day you need it. in MOST cases, you won't need that swap, but IF/(when) you do and it's not there, your kernel will try to kill processes to keep itself alive before it locks.01:20

=== rafael is now known as Gomex
neofaxAnyone using HD-DVD in linux?01:22
[omni]amstella: it depends on your priorities. These days disk space is so cheap, that i don't think going with the safety of 2xRAM is at all overkill01:22
BCM43amstella: that reminds me, i have no swap on start up. each time i start up i have to run sudo swapoff -a ;sudo mkswap /dev/hda4 ;sudo swapon /dev/hda4.01:23
amstellaomni : its cheap i know, but would you use a double double to be safe or a double to allocate memory.  Only use what you need01:23
BCM43neofax: is anyone using hddvd in general?01:23
[omni]BCM43: if you don't have swap, why do you swapoff?01:23

[omni]you shouldn't have to mkswap everytime... doing a swapon should bring back your swap01:27
[omni]the question is why isn't it doing so on boot01:27
Cubic[omni]: righto01:28
[omni]you're not booting into the recovery mode kernel are you, BCM43?01:28
BCM43[omni]: well, it it matters, it occationally checks for error with the hard drive, saying it has not been checked for somthing like 32454 days.01:28
BCM43[omni]: nope01:28
neofaxBCM43: What does your /etc/fstab state is your UUID of your swap drive?01:28
[omni]wouldn't check swap for that01:28
[omni]do you have a custom /etc/init.d/mountall.sh ?01:28

Jack_Sparrow!webmin02:32
ubottuwebmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. It is not compatible with the way that Ubuntu packages handle configuration files, and is likely to cause unexpected issues with your system. See !ebox instead.02:32
jedimindjubalj: fair enough, if its for internal use then it really doesnt make much of a difference02:32
jedimindjubalj: you could probably do a bit of a macro w/ Open Office to simply save the files as html02:32
jedimindhow many files are you dealing with ?02:32
jubaljjedimind: 100s02:32
neofaxSeaPhor: However, it is barebones X.  If you have any exotic, to include Radeon/GeForce, peripherals(spelling?) then it is just basic.  However, it helps in troubleshooting02:33

traversahh ubuntu is pure garbage! I got some netboot tar off the servers (which was horrible outdated,) untarred those, and what was in it? A kernel, a bootloader and NO README. WHat is it going to do when it boots up? some esoteric bootparam rpc call? NOBODY KNOWS! its CRAPPPPPPP CRAP CRAP LINUX IS CRAP< UBUNTU ESPECIALLY!03:15

nantaxhow do i force the login resolution to 1024x768? it has a mind of its own and wants to be at 1280x1024 always... i already added the vga option in grub, added xres and yres in usplash.conf and editing xorg.conf to include the subsection mode will disable video acceleration and default to lowest resolution03:20
neofaxuser01: Do this: DISPLAY=:0 glxinfo | grep render03:20
bring3m_newton, does your website appear ok at http://localhost/ or http://127.0.0.1/ ?03:20
Starnestommym_newton: does /etc/apache2/ports.conf have "Listen 80" in it?03:21

nantaxdanbhfive, there are no resolution entries in there. if i add it, then when i reboot, hardware acceleration is off... i have installed the newest nvidia drivers03:22
Starnestommym_newton: and do you have the right IPs for the port forwarding?03:22
neofaxuser01: Do sudo apt-get install libgl1-mesa-dri03:22

user01neo2k, blurry objects03:24
onthefence928yeah I reinstalled firefox and it gave me the newest version, which works even less well03:24
m_newtonbring3: i dont think that is it03:24
user01neofax, blurry objects03:24
nickrudnantax you would need to set a resolution in xorg.conf , gdm uses that to set the resolution if it's set03:24

user01neofax, mostly no03:25
m_newtonbring3: What did you keep as your update interwal03:25
Starnestommyghindo: try the -Y flag instead of -X03:25
elmertravers, OK. Is there a way to fix that that you know of?03:25
traversghindo, disregard that, you want03:25
bring3m_newton, update interval for what?03:25
nantaxnickrud, where exactly in xorg.conf would i add that? my xorg.conf does not have any entries regarding resolutions03:25
traversghindo both X and Y03:25
neofaxuser01: So, when you installed that last package did it say it was already installed?03:25
m_newtonbring3: noip203:25
traverselmer, box plugged in, network up? same subnet, etc?03:25
m_newtonStarnestommy: Any ideas?03:25
user01neofax, nope03:26
Starnestommym_newton: I'm not sure what's causing that03:26
bring3onthefence928, i think you will need to find a repository with FF3b4, honestly you might want to look for one that has FF3RC1 instead, that could work better for you03:26
neofaxuser01: What did it say?03:26
user01neofax, it said no packages would be installed03:26
bring3m_newton, sorry i don't have noip2 installed, so i don't know much about it03:26
elmertravers, the IP is for a WAP54G (wireless bridge or access point). I have the same subnet, we are on the same network supposedly.03:26
m_newtonStarnestommy: any guesses on how to go back in time, or how to undo one days of messups?03:26
neofaxOk then that normally means it is already installed.03:27
Starnestommym_newton: have you tried restarting apache2?03:27
onthefence928bring3: fair enough, how do I go about doing it? I can barely get firefox 2 to work correctly03:27
onthefence928bring3: I suck at installing on ubuntu03:27
m_newtonStarnestommy: yup to no avail, i reinstalled everything to do with a web server03:27
traverselmer, somebody is probably making tacos in their microwave =) no, actually, the linksys is probably just not configured properly03:27
bring3onthefence928, lolol, dont worry there are good guides, just digging up the FF3 one :)03:28
elmertravers, well... that stinks because I can't access it via the web interface.03:28
neofaxtry doing sudo apt-get remove xserver-xgl and then <CTL>+<ALT>+<BACKSPACE> again and see if that helps.  Then we will run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg03:28
Kohlrakanyone know how to get letters sideways in open office?03:28
traverselmer, give it a reset, I think that model comes up at 192.168.1.24503:28
traverselmer, (I have 3 of em)03:28
bring3onthefence928, assuming you are running Hardy (8.04) check out this guide: http://blog.rosanegra.org/2008/05/20/how-to-install-firefox-3-rc1-on-ubuntu-hardy/03:28
elmertravers, it does, and how long should I hold down the reset button?03:28
nickrudnantax a sec03:28
user01neofax, sudo aptitude show libl1-mesa-dri | grep State shows State: installed03:29
traverselmer, *shrug* 10 secs or something? wait for the leds to change03:29
neofaxuser01: When you are done with that, send me an email as I have to go to bed now.03:29
bring3onthefence928, if that doesn't fix your problems, then you might try downgrading to 3b4, but i'd try that first, RC1 worked nicely for me at least :)03:29
elmertravers, done03:29

elmerBllz, I think he wants to burn the iso image03:34
mbrandtbrody, if you browse the cd do you have more than one file?03:35
ezzieyguywufI couldn't suspend b/c i'm running compiz on an ATI card and aparantly it isn't supported. I've edited my pm-suspend script to replace compiz with metacity before suspending and then to replace metacity with compiz when it resumes. Everything works great when I call pm-suspend from the command line. I cannot, however, get it to work properly using FN-F4 or the power icon. I have edited my hal-system-power-suspend-linux script so 03:35

Flannelbrody: Pop that CD into the drive and reboot (and make sure you're BIOS is set to boot to CD)03:36
Bllzlastelement0:  what are the specs of your toshiba?03:36
mbrandtbrody you can't install an ISO file, you need to burn the IMAGE to a cdrom03:37
m_newtonStarnestommy: and firewall in router is overruled by portforwared, ubuntu firewall... nah!03:37

elmerUmm... maybe it connected to the neighbor's wifi?03:37
brodyflannel, thanks, I think I get it now03:37
m_newtonStarnestommy: from 1-30 which update more frequently03:37
bring3elmer, by "it" you mean your computer?03:38
brodythanks mbrandt too, btw03:38
mbrandtbrody, an iso file is a compressed file like a zip or tar file that contains the info, you need a burning program that will make it useful03:38
onthefence928bring3: hey I followed your instructions and it almost started working fine, but now firefox won't start03:38
StarnestommyKRaZy_WaKa: NTFS and malware aren't related, just windows and malware03:38

scifiguy951???keyloggers???03:39
mbrandtbrody, if the file on the cd ends in .iso you cannot install that03:39
brodymy question (which was poorly worded) was how would I install that once it is on the cd03:39
superkuhIs the /lib64 directory on 8.04 simply a link to /lib?03:39
mbrandtyou need a burning software that will make the image file into something useful03:39
Bllzlastelement0:  i'm not sure but your lappy may not be able to run the livecd.  I had a satellite once that couldn't.  I'd reccommend you use the alternate install and see if that works.  Also, if you can't run the liveCD, Xubuntu might be your best bet.03:40

bring3onthefence928, ok well hopefully that works, fyi Wubi is used to let Linux install inside the Windows partition, but you can also make a separate partition if you like04:17
m_newtonZoem both, i wnat to be a pro at this so i want to know the hard way, but i also want to try the easy way04:17

mohamed_Zoem-> this is /dev/sdc, only first we look at mount if is mounted or not can you past mount result ?04:17
Zoemm_newton, the hard way is pretty simple. download the entire manual for your mail server (exim4 is like 300 pages) and read it.04:17
Maxdamantuscomputer13137, while the SSH session is open, use a program (Eg Firefox, Edit -> Preferences -> Advanced -> Network -> Settings) to set a SOCKS5 proxy (hostname being the IP/host of the "computer upstairs", and port being 1080)04:18

TwiztidMindok thanks, that was my next guess04:20
e|merbring3, OK. I have V2.04:20
onthefence928bring3: would that work ofr wubi's install space too?04:20
idefis there anyway to just hide the mouse pointer, I want to use it as a display machine, and not have the mouse pointer show up, as there are no input devices for my machine04:20
m_newtonZoem ... how about wikipedia, i doubt ppl post the whole guide there, u think hey will have solutions04:20
Zoemthey might have general pointers, but I don't think it will be anything in depth04:21
Starnestommyrsvampire: try http://paste.ubuntu.com/16747/04:21
bring3onthefence928, i think you have an option to set amount of space to use for the virtual Linux partition, so that will appear to be the size of the HD when Linux runs04:21
Zoemm_newton, the ubuntu forums is where I picked up most of what I know about postfix configurating. I set it up with webmin, the manually fixed it whenever it broke, and can find my way around pretty decently04:21
m_newtonZoem so you suggest reading the whole guide for this software? REcomend!04:21

rsvampireStarnestommy: alright let me restart and see what happens04:22
onthefence928bring3: is there to check how much of that is left?04:22
Zoemm_newton, lolno. it's insane and details every technical aspect of what is possibly the most comprehensive mail server04:22
m_newtonWhat is the diffrence between ssh and sshd????????04:22
Zoemm_newton, btw, I hate exim4 because it is so hard to set up. I recomend postfix04:23
e|merbring3, the manual has 30s more for the download on my end04:23
Starnestommym_newton: ssh is the client, sshd is the server04:23
Wyleyrabbit_I'm trying to copy a dvd iso to an external hard disk, and it started fast but is taking FOREVER. Is there any way of speeding this up? ( I just dragged it from the local dir to the remote drive )04:23
matthias_Nhi anybody know how to track down memory leaks and from where it comes ???04:23
m_newtonZoem: postfix it is04:23
Baron1984memory leaks come from bad coding04:23
onthefence928bring3: well supposedly I have all of 30.5 mb freespace in my "filesystem" drive04:23
m_newtonStarnestommy: ?? still a bit confused04:23
onthefence928bring3: and it says it has 20.x gigs of space used04:23
m_newtonStarnestommy: what are tthe uses for ssh and sshd04:24
onthefence928and rising04:24
ghindoCan anyone recommend a good command-line CD burning tool?  I wanna burn an ISO to a CD on a remote machine04:24
detrateMy desktop is "zoomed in" - does anyone know how to exit this mode?04:24
Starnestommym_newton: ssh is the client that you use to log into an ssh server04:24
Starnestommym_newton: sshd is the server that lets other users log in remotely to the computer that it runs on04:24
m_newtonStarnestommy: Moreover HOW to use sshd, i already know small bit of ssh04:24

todoskihow do I install ubuntu from hard disk?04:24
mohamed_detrate-> you use compiz ?04:25
todoskii've downloaded the iso file04:25

Starnestommym_newton: all you have to do is install openssh-server to run sshd.  By default, you shouldn't need to reconfigure it04:25
detratebut the hotkey may apply04:25
detratewhat is it?04:25
m_newtonStarnestommy: So what is ssh used for, i can login by saying ssh username@something.no-ip.biz -p 8004:25

kittyhawkhi04:26
LachlanHi guys, I'm trying to get my Intel 945G working on my system, which is currently doing software rendering. Does anybody have any suggestions for how I can do this? It doesn't seem to work if I simply specify the "i810" driver in my xorg.conf.04:26
Starnestommym_newton: port 80 is http.  By default, ssh is port 2204:26
Bllzwhen i try to connect to an SMB share (samba) on my ubuntu box via a vista client, I get the following error:  "the mapped network drive could not be created because the following error has occurred:  the pecified server cannot perform the requested operation."04:26
Zoemm_newton, it would actually be ssh -l username something.no-ip.biz04:26
bring3rledge21, you want to add Medibuntu repository in System -> Administration -> Software Sources -> Third Party Software04:26
Bllzanybody know what the problem is?04:26
bring3rledge21, also, you might try installing VLC: sudo apt-get install vlc04:27
m_newtonZoem: why -l04:27
m_newtonStarnestommy: ya but port 80 is the only port open in my school04:27
e|merbring3, maybe I'm completely wrong about this thing04:27
e|merbring3, maybe it's not a bridge at all04:27
e|mermaybe it's just an AP04:27
Starnestommym_newton: what about 443?04:27
kittyhawkI've filled up my /boot partition, and I can't uninstall old kernels because apt-get wants me to run dpkg --configure -a which tries to finish installing a new kernel, which fails because /boot is full04:27
rledge21bring3: thanks04:27
m_newtonStarnestommy: that too04:27
Zoemm_newton, -l tells it that you will supply the login name. otherwise it will ask you for it04:27
bring3onthefence928, 30mb of free space is extremely low, that is likely causing the other problems, what could be using 20gb of space???04:27
Scoomakittyhawk: have you cleared everything out of /tmp ?04:28
Starnestommym_newton: try adding "Port 443" to /etc/ssh/sshd_config to make it listen on port 44304:28
onthefence928bring3: my guess? my lack of understanding04:28
kittyhawkit's only /boot that's full04:28
bring3rledge21, sure thing, just ask if you have trouble getting medibuntu enabled04:28
diefordethklokCan anyone help me on getting my microphone to wokr?04:28
m_newtonZoem not really, i have loged in without having to do so04:28
Scoomakittyhawk: it's on it's own partition?04:28
bring3onthefence928, lolol, well if you can figure out what is causing that and delete the extra files that might fix your problems :)04:28
diefordethklokI tried sound recorder with every capture option, but the recordings are all blank04:29
diefordethklokAnd yes my speakers are turned on04:29
onthefence928bring3: ok whoa, my filesystem drive is 200gigs large04:29
Bllz when i try to connect to an SMB share (samba) on my ubuntu box via a vista client, I get the following error:  "the mapped network drive could not be created because the following error has occurred:  the pecified server cannot perform the requested operation."04:29
m_newtonStarnestommy: i will later, it is creating the partition now so...04:29
Zoemm_newton, it's possible either way, just changes when you give the login04:29
bring3e|mer, try connecting the WAP54G directly to your router04:29
amstell1bliz : do you have port forwarding turned on04:29
lastelement0m_newton: i have a toshiba mk6032gsx hard drive04:29
kittyhawkScooma: yep.  I've had it set up that way forever, since it used to be you couldn't boot off a partition that was too big04:29
LachlanIs anybody available to help me get my Intel 945G graphics card working?04:29
m_newtonStarnestommy: so if i can use ssh what is sshd for04:29
Bllz when i try to connect to an SMB share (samba) on my ubuntu box via a vista client, I get the following error:  "the mapped network drive could not be created because the following error has occurred:  the pecified server cannot perform the requested operation."04:30
amstell1Lachlan : ask your question please.....04:30
rsvampireStarnestommy: alright that fixed it... thanks man04:30
bring3e|mer, check page 6 of the manual for LED info :)04:30
Starnestommym_newton: sshd is the Secure SHell server Daemon04:30
kittyhawkScooma: don't know if that's still true, but anyhow.  I've got 100M in /boot :-(04:30
m_newtonlastelement0: Intel of amd, u are running the correct ad right?04:30
Starnestommym_newton: it is the server part of ssh04:30
m_newtonlastelement0: Intel of amd, u are running the correct cd right04:30

lastelement0m_newton: intel and i have the correct cd04:30
Lachlanamstell1: My system is using software rendering no matter what I put in my xorg.conf, even if I use displayconfig-gtk. I have absolutely no idea why, does anybody have any suggestions, or things I can use to check why it won't work?04:30
amstell1bliz : what were you doing when you got that?04:30
Starnestommym_newton: just like apache is the server part of http04:30
m_newtonStarnestommy: so what you are saying is that ssh to connect and sshd to configure04:31
onthefence928bring those are the properties of my "filesystem" on ubuntu04:31
bring3onthefence928, this is from within linux? i think wubi sets up the whole drive to be accessible, but the system directories are only part of that04:31
Bllzamstell1:  i was trying to create a mapped network drive04:31
amstell1Lachlan : what is wrong with your display?04:31
diefordethklok Can anyone help me on getting my microphone to work?04:31
Scoomakittyhawk: look into the dir and remove the backup files to make a bit of space?04:31
amstell1Bliz : you have all your permissions set?04:31
onthefence928well apparently it's reading every bit of data it has04:31
matthias_Nhi anyone knows how to track down an mempry leak ???04:31
Lachlanamstell1: It's very laggy because it's using software rendering, rather than my graphics hardware. I'd prefer it was using the graphics hardware.04:31
emetso I have text in this PDF file, is there any simple way to get my computer to read it back to me?04:31
lastelement0m_newton: intel and i have the right cd04:31
matthias_Nmemory leak ...04:32
Starnestommym_newton: no. SSH is the client program that connects to SSHD.  SSHD is the ssh server that SSH connects to.  If SSHD isn't running on a machine, SSH clients cannopt connect to it04:32
m_newtonlastelement0: when you say it cant detect it... did it do so before or are you installing for the first time04:32
bring3Lachlan, might need to enable proprietary hardware drivers04:32
kittyhawkScoome: ok.  I was wondering if there was a principled way to fix it, but I'll go ahead and do that.04:32
amstell1Lachlan : what type of video card do you use04:32
Lachlanbring3: How can I do that?04:32
Starnestommy*cannot04:32
Bllzamstell1:  in ubuntu?  I guess so.  I have it set so that only user 'louist' can log into it and under vista I specified the apropriate username/pass04:32

Lachlanamstell1: Been on this problem for a solid 2 days, google and all. :)04:33

bring3Lachlan, System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers, see if your video card is listed04:33
Bllzamstell1:  btw it's Bllz, not Bliz -- sorry it just makes it easier to read since it shows up in red when it's spelled right =)04:33

This is no upgrade but only an update. Why is Ubuntu to change my file menu.lst?05:10

lastelement0m_newton: i just d/l'd the alt install cd and that detected it. there may not be enough memory for it to run the reg install05:12
Jburrkebring3: Actually it's the same iso I used on windows, and the game ran perfectly if I kept the iso mounted with daemon - tools05:12
ScoomaRemo-Con: you need to hook a cable into the management port of the switch and tell the switch to CC: all the traffic to the mgmt port05:12

troxorBllz: namely, differing in the bit that's a dash ;)06:23

jastivWhy can't I get my new sdl program to compile in ubunuu?06:59
UBUNTUJAY123yeah i am it will not let java work in ff2 no matter what i do06:59
UBUNTUJAY123i install java606:59
bring3UBUNTUJAY123, hmm thats strange, mine uses way less CPU than FF2 on most websites i visit, flash has problems for me in FF2 and FF306:59
crdlband there is no conceivable way that ubuntu could have included firefox2 as the default browser in hardy as mozilla refuses to provide long-term support for old versions of firefox06:59
ZoemUBUNTUJAY123, have you installed the restricted extras package?07:00
UBUNTUJAY123java6 runtime and browser plug in in add and remove07:00
LachlanHi guys, does anybody know how I can check if a driver is blacklisted, or the system even recognizes the driver as installed? More specifically I want to know if my system has the Intel 945G graphics driver installed. (Yes the package is installed.)07:00
UBUNTUJAY123i uninstalled javajdk and icetea07:00
UBUNTUJAY123and ff307:00
UBUNTUJAY123and the jave will not work in ff2 at all07:00
crdlbLachlan: what's the problem exactly? that should work just fine by default07:01
UBUNTUJAY123and yah i have ubuntu restricted extras installed07:01
Zoemok, the firefox java plugin is located it the restricted extras package. sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras07:01
Zoemor grab it from add/remove07:01
UBUNTUJAY123zoem07:01
UBUNTUJAY123that ubuntu restriced is javajdk and icetes for ff307:01
UBUNTUJAY123and i installed every thing for ff2 and java still will not work07:02
Zoemit is also the configurator that makes the links to ff for the plugin07:02
UBUNTUJAY123thats called forced to use ff307:02
Zoemif you like, I can just tell you which symlinks to create07:02
UBUNTUJAY123just for get i downgrade or go to windows07:03
UBUNTUJAY123as bad as i hate to07:03

mohamed_spikemcc-> which card you have ?07:03
Zoem...07:03
Lachlancrdlb: I've been trying to solve this problem for some time now. My system is using software rendering rather than the graphics hardware. I have the appropriate driver packages installed.07:03
Zoemso, back to my question07:03
Zoemwhat is the script that runs on beginning an gnome session? whenever I load into gnome, something hangs before the panel can come up. Failsafe gnome prevents this.07:03

bring3BurnedPhoenix, oh sure, hope it works out, heard lots of good things :)07:10
werneckinstead of installing, how can I can I download all deb packages and dependencies to some directory?07:10
mohamed_spikemcc-> i use also different tuner , but the point try to be sure that the correct  driver installed, then try it with mythtv07:10
UBUNTUJAY123delete ~/.mozilla / dir07:10
UBUNTUJAY123how i do that07:10
Zoemshoot, I can't get find anything that seems broken07:11
ZoemUBUNTUJAY123, rm ~/.mozilla07:11
UBUNTUJAY123he said to uninstall ff2 and do that and reinstall ff207:11
crdlbLachlan: something you don't want installed :) It's no longer necessary, but if you had it installed, it would make direct rendering appear to be disabled07:11
Zoemerr.. rm -rf ~/.mozilla, actually07:11
grndslmUBUNTUJAY123:  you'll loose all your bookmarks that way if you have any07:11
mohamed_spikemcc-> if u face problem with driver you can join #linuxtv asking them for more details07:11

ZoemAny suggestions on how to trace the error I have on startup? would that show up in dmesg or something?07:12
BurnedPhoenixUBUNTUJAY123: That is basically removing all your personal data for FF Bookmarks, Preferences and such07:12
bring3sorry bobboy, never heard of it :(07:12
grndslmbobboy:  ask away, but you *might* have better help in the #opengeu cahnnel07:12
UBUNTUJAY123it say it cant remove it its a directory07:13
grndslmhe sent you another command to use the -r switch07:13
ZoemUBUNTUJAY123, to uninstall and reinstall it, sudo apt-get remove firefox-2 && sudo apt-get install firefox-207:13
bobboywell its just that the installation instruction when done installing says goto Applications --> System Tools --> OpenGEU-configuration07:13
BurnedPhoenixpop a Sudo in front =)07:14
grndslmrm -r ~/.mozilla07:14
ZoemUBUNTUJAY123, and I ammended that to rm -rf ~/.mozilla07:14
UBUNTUJAY123he said to remove it because it complies to ff307:14
Zoemthe bookmarks and personal information storage hasn't changed between them07:14
Zoemthey are the same thing07:14
UBUNTUJAY123ok it did ty07:14

yotsufrom point a to B07:15

UBUNTUJAY123Zoem he said it had ff3 in that as the default browser in the ~/.mozilla dir07:15
mohamed_yotsu->  mv a b07:15
UBUNTUJAY123he said thats why no plug ins will work with ff207:15
mohamed_yotsu-> sudo  mv a b07:16
UBUNTUJAY123could he be right07:16
grndslmanybody here disable sudo??  i always type sudo -s to gain root shell, but i'm kinda getting sick of typing in my password 50 times everyday...  you guys really think it's that much of a threat to disable?07:16
ZoemUBUNTUJAY123, ~/.mozilla only holds information for the browser, and it will hold that information regardless of which version of the browser you use07:16
crdlbLachlan: open it in a text editor such as gedit07:16
bring3  grndslm , just keep the same terminal window open, and you do not have to reenter password07:17
UBUNTUJAY123this what he told me is that ff3 is default browser in 8.04 and in the ~/.mozilla dir its got in there that ff3 is default07:17
ZoemUBUNTUJAY123, have you removed ff3?07:18
UBUNTUJAY123yeah07:18
grndslmthat is a bad habit of mine, but really... i'm wondering if anybody's system has been compromised by disabling sudo access??07:18

bring3grndslm, how come you need to use SUDO 50 times per day? that might mean you need to rearrange user permissions, since chances are you only need to use SUDO in rare cases like installing new software07:18

Rat409UBUNTUJAY123: you can mv the ~/.mozilla to .bak or run firefox -ProfileManager to bring up the create,remove profile dialog07:21
UBUNTUJAY123some how i have to get ff2 as default browser07:21
ZoemUBUNTUJAY123, that's because you don't have the java plugin installed or linked. I'm currently running both FF2 and FF3 with java running07:21
bring3grndslm, i meant _good_ ways to get around that :D07:21
ZoemUBUNTUJAY123, at the same time, even07:21

bring3StuntMan, try enabling Proprietary Drivers in System -> Administration -> Software Sources07:36
hrnthmm, any idea how to change my timezone? Using time-admin to select Europe/Helsinki keeps my tz to be +03:00 (should be +02:00)07:36

UBUNTUJAY123www.dslreports.com/stest07:37
moj0risinghaha. that's ok.07:37
hrntah, never mind. summertime :(07:37

Lachlancrdlb: Just following up on that link I sent you, does it give you any insights?07:37
karllenzany one y cant i format07:37
moj0risingI used automatix  :(07:37
moj0risingI know, I know.   ;)07:38
Zoemhmmm07:38
StuntManbring3: proprietary drivers for devices is enabled07:38
moj0risingso I used automatix to install my intel video drivers....07:38
UBUNTUJAY123i just install ff3 back07:38
bring3StuntMan, any chance the printer shows up in System -> Admin -> Hardware Drivers?07:38
moj0rising... I'm wondering how I can maybe remove anything automatix installed?07:38
vltgrndslm: A fresh install. I only used the system settings dialog once to set resolution to 1280x1024, wich created all these mode lines in xorg.conf07:38
UBUNTUJAY123i guess and tomorrow get my windows back going07:38
dkt_who knows how to run off quit and joined messages in xchat-gnome ;-)07:38
UBUNTUJAY123thanks any ways zoem07:38
grndslmvlt:  here's my xorg.conf.... you should take note of the mode lines & substitute with the rezes allowed by your monitor/graphics card:  http://pastebin.ca/103846707:39
Zoemnp07:39
moj0risingI already tried something like this by removing the 915 drivers and moving my xorg.conf file to a different location.07:39
bring3./quit message i think07:39
moj0risingbut that didn't seem to help.07:39
moj0risingI think damn automatix broke something07:39
moj0risingbut I don't know what.07:39
moj0risingpossibly related to my video drivers07:39
grndslmvlt:  you should be able to use 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg' like it suggests in that file, but i don't do that personally07:39
moj0risingbecuase that post I showed you pertains to video07:39
Rat409karllenz: if you mean a hdd or a partition it must be unmounted first07:40
moj0risingand hal interfaces with that, I'm sure (don't know much about that).07:40
StuntManI think I just stumbled onto it.... thanks bring3....07:40
grndslmvlt:  and then hit CTRL+ALT+Backspace07:40
bring3StuntMan, woohoo! hope that works out okay :)07:40
renegade444Hi. I'm trying to ditch M$ WMM for my YouTube video making, but I'm having some issues with my Webcam. I d/l'd the driver source, got it compiled and the module loaded ok, but I seem to be having some pallette issues with the driver. Anyway, here's a pastebin of where I'm at: http://pastebin.com/d1caf7b3a  So, my question really is: Does anyone have an Idea how to fix the pallette well enough to actually use my webcam? It would really mak07:41
karllenzRat409: it is unmounted07:41
Rat409karllenz: you used sudo or are root?07:42
moj0risingdkt_: sorry, missed your question.07:42
karllenzRat409: i can partition to ext3 well its gparted and it asks me for my admin password07:42
moj0risingbasically I get an error about hal from apt-get.07:42
dkt_moj0rising: hmmm?07:42
moj0risingkinda like this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/16782/07:43
moj0risingmine is similar on another box07:43
moj0risingthat one's broken.  :|07:43
moj0risingdkt_: not sure what to do about it but I think the problem might have to do w/ me using automatix way back...07:43
moj0rising...to install intel video drivers07:43
geronimo89hello everybody07:44
bring3hello07:44
moj0risingbut I can't seem to find a way to find out or roll back changes automatix may have made07:44
soldatsdkt_: right click the channel tab in xchat and select ignore join parts07:44
dkt_moj0rising: sorry man im def not able to help yo on that one ;-)07:45
w3rd_n e one in here use vmware esx server?07:45
geronimo89How can I, in 8.04 assig hotkey to switch to desktop 3 and 4 directly?07:45
bring3karllenz, try sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g07:45
karllenzbring3: ok07:46
moj0risingthat's all right. thanks for looking at it.07:46
Zoemany suggestions how to wipe a loptop hard-drive without opening the computer?07:46
moj0rising:)07:46
geronimo89assign*07:46
bring3karllenz, it might already be installed but check and see07:46
gordonjcpZoem: can you boot from a CD?07:46
karllenzbring3: it is installed07:46
geronimo89How can I, in 8.04 assign hotkeys to switch to desktop 3 and 4 directly?07:46
soldatsgeronimo89: i think the default is alt+1 or alt+2 etc07:47
Zoemgordonjcp, no. laptop will not power on. We just want to wipe the hard drive before excercising the warranty07:47
karllenzbring3: is there another way to format a hdd other then using gparted07:47
ResistolDoes anyone know how a site like cnn.com can send different info to two computers behind a router?07:47
PEZany of you use ushare?07:47
welkincan any one tel me wat is the difference between ftp download and http download07:47
ResistolAs far as I know, a packet coming from cnn.com will only have the router's public IP address... it wouldn't have a MAC address or anything would it?  Someone mentionned something about "sockets" but I don't know what those are yet07:47
geronimo89soldats: I an only assign them for desktop 1 and 2, there is no option for 3 and 407:47
gordonjcpZoem: ah, in which case you'll need to pop the drive out and stick it on some sort of adaptor, or into another laptop07:47
gordonjcpwelkin: the protocols are different07:47
gordonjcpwelkin: and they use different servers07:47
Zoemgordonjcp, opening the laptop voids the warranty07:47
Resistolwelkin, I think they're just different protocols - the rules and commands are different behind the scenes07:47
bring3karllenz, yup there are command line tools, try fdisk or cfdisk, gparted should work though...07:48
gordonjcpZoem: can't remove the drive without opening the case?07:48
geronimo89Zoem: dban, dirks boot and nuke07:48
gordonjcpwelkin: have a look on wikipedia...07:48
gordonjcpgeronimo89: not much good if it won't power up07:48
soldatsgeronimo89: i think if you go to the keyboard properties in settings or admin keyboard settings you can change it but i havent used gnome in a long time07:48
geronimo89Zoem:07:48
geronimo89http://dban.sourceforge.net/07:48
soldatsjust a guess from memory07:48
geronimo89gordonjcp: oh, sorry07:48
bring3karllenz, make sure of course the drive is not mounted, also you could try using ntfsprogs (apt-get install ntfsprogs first)07:48
gordonjcpZoem: definitely won't power up at all?07:48
karllenzbring3: they are definatly not mounted ill try fisk tho07:49
Zoemgordonjcp, not at all. no bios activity, no fan activity07:49
Zoemthe light turns on, then off07:49
gordonjcpZoem: hm07:49
welkingordonjcp, resisto.>>>> thanks guys............07:49
gordonjcpZoem: you're going to need to talk to the manufacturer for some advice then07:49
dkt_so anyone have any idea why a fresh install ubuntu laptop shuts down randomly? like goes though a full ubuntu shutdown procedure... not just a hard shutdown.. can happen 5 minutes into running the laptop or 30...07:49
welkingordonjcp, resistol.>>>> thanks guys............07:50
gordonjcpZoem: tell them you're concerned about confidential data on the laptop07:50
Zoemgordonjcp, lol, they will say "send us the laptop" and we want to null the information on hard-drive first07:50
karllenzbring3: is this my usb external?fdisk /dev/eda  (for the first PS/2 ESDI drive)07:50
geronimo89How can I, in 8.04 assign hotkey to switch to desktop 3 and 4 directly? In the Keyboard Shortcuts window, there is only an option for 1 and 2.07:50
=== tolecnal_ is now known as tolecnal
bring3Zoem, you should be able to pull the HD without violating your warranty, i guess you should double check to sure though07:50
dkt_geronimo89: do you have 4 desktops enabled? or just 2?07:50
Zoemoh well, I'd rather not worry about it. not my laptop anyway07:50
geronimo89dkt_: I have 4 enabled07:50
Ashfire908Where in the rc files would I put a script/command to confiure a network route?07:51
bring3karllenz, i have no idea, you will have to figure out what device is being assigned, gparted might help with that even if it won't let you format properly07:51
Rat409dkt_: dunno maybe wrong sensors config,thinks its too hot ,etc had no probs here07:51
karllenzbring3:ok i might just use my mac to format lol may be abit simpler07:51
bring3Zoem, i think you could put a big magnet next to it :D07:51
vltgrndslm: I ran `dpkg-reconfigure x...`. Now xorg.conf is "empty" again. But now X starts with a much too high resolution (1600x1***). How can I set it to fixed 1280x1024@85?07:51
crdlbLachlan: sorry, got distracted, but no I didn't get anything07:51
dkt_Rat409: anyway to check whats sending the reboot command?07:51
bring3karllenz, lolol, its strange i always use Gparted and NTFS works fine07:52
bring3karllenz, try cfdisk real quick07:52
gordonjcpbring3: that would destroy the drive07:52
UBUNTUJAY123is myha os any good07:52
Zoembring3, we were trying to identify a magnet big enough. car alternator would work, but it's too hot and cramped07:52
dkt_Rat409: it would reboot if i booted even to live cd... had to use alternate install cd to install ubuntu07:52
Rat409dkt_: make sure all system and boot logs are enabled,maybe dmesg if you;re fast07:52
karllenzbring3: i got a fatal error07:52
ZoemUBUNTUJAY123, you should switch to BeOs07:53
bring3karllenz, make sure to use "sudo cfdisk"07:53
gordonjcpZoem: don't worry about it then07:53
UBUNTUJAY123never heard of that one07:53
karllenzbring3: ok07:53
bring3gordonjcp, it could corrupt the data without actually damaging the drive. still probably not a good idea :D07:53
geronimo89How can I, in 8.04 assign hotkey to switch to desktop 3 and 4 directly? In the Keyboard Shortcuts window, there is only an option for 1 and 2. I have 4 desktops enabled.07:53
dkt_Rat409: arent the enabled by default?07:53
bring3Zoem, yeah it's probably not the best idea lol07:53
gordonjcpbring3: it's more likely to just damage the drive irreparable07:53
Rat409s.b. afaik07:53
UBUNTUJAY123whats it like zoem07:54
ResistolRight now, if I have two computers here behind a router, both chatting on AIM, how do incoming messages tell my router which PC they're going to?07:54
Lachlancrdlb: I sent the link in a notice and a private message.07:54
crdlbLachlan: the problem is that (EE) line: (EE) intel(0): Cannot support DRI with frame buffer width > 2048.07:54
bring3gordonjcp, well maybe he can get the drive replaced under warranty, at least there would be no signs of tampering :D07:54
gordonjcpheh07:54
ZoemUBUNTUJAY123, it's like a very well designed, bloat free, modern OS. That hasn't been supported for ~8 years because the company went under07:54
karllenzbring3: that command is only showing one of my hdd's the bootable one07:54
gordonjcpZoem: there's Haiku07:54
Lachlancrdlb: Does that mean the driver doesn't support a horizontal resolution greater than that?07:54
UBUNTUJAY123o07:55
ZoemUBUNTUJAY123, but it's really good anyway, and is fully posix compliant so you can run the GNU tools n such07:55
bring3karllenz, i have never heard of a computer company where simply pulling the HD would invalidate the warranty, but still you will need to figure out another computer to plug it into to wipe the data07:55
Zoemgordonjcp, poetry won't help in a situation like this07:55
UBUNTUJAY123whats myah like07:55
crdlbLachlan: the GPU itself doesn't in this case07:55
Zoemoh, nvm, laptop is being fulling refunded and return shipping paid07:55
Zoemthe moral of the story is: HP sucks07:55
karllenzbring3: guess my mac will hafta do it07:56
karllenzbring3: its that or install windows uch07:56
InvisionfreeHi - I have a blank CD, I burn a Debian ISO to it, it says complete, I put it back in .. And ubuntu says its's a blank disk .. Why?07:56
bring3karllenz, use it like "sudo cfdisk /dev/eda" and you can see more info to confirm if it is the correct drive07:56
vltResistol: The router tracks each connection, remembers the source port (among other things) and so can tell where to route the _answer_ packets from the im server ...07:56
UBUNTUJAY123what u mean HP sucks07:56
pabixHello, do you know about a GTK image viewer that, like kuickshow, is able to show me my images in several windows without many toolbars or frames around them?07:56

amorphousMorning!07:57
gordonjcpInvisionfree: I particularly like the way that "ohmy" is homophonic to a very very rude word in my language ;-)07:57
Zoemgordonjcp, oh, yeah. I don't actually know that much about BeOS. I tried it when it was still sold, but never stuck with it07:57
UBUNTUJAY123well iam out07:58
ZoemI just think if equipment breaks after 3 weeks, that could maybe be the manufacturers fault07:58
bring3Invisionfree, what burning software are you using? i have had varying luck07:58
tyberionhey...07:58
Invisionfreebring3: K3b.07:58
Rat409could well be,any mfr can have lemons07:59
tyberionis there any way to get rss feeds to my desktop with any widget app or sth?07:59
amorphousis there a list of boot parameters about (with their settings) to ensure a clean bootup? ie) noapic noalpic acpi=off nosplash etc... but what is a comprehensive etc?07:59
ZoemRat409, I have never had a computer quit after 3 years, let alone 3 weeks. therefore, I am the better manufacturer :P07:59
geronimo89tyberion: gdesklets, superkaramba?07:59
Zoembtw everyone07:59
Zoem<---- girl07:59
karllenzbring3: whats the difference logical or primary? i want to use it to store  files07:59
bring3lies, there are no girls on the internet :P07:59
Zoemwell, then that explains why they aren't annoyed by being called he five times in 10 minutes :)08:00
Rat409bring3: isn't that sposed to be a bots response lol08:00
bring3karllenz, hrm i think you want primary, whatever is the default08:00
karllenzbring3: ok08:00
amorphousZoem - whats to say you just dont have clients that use them more than once a year?08:00
Resistolthanks vlt, so what you're saying is that PC1 and PC2 are both connected to somesite.com, and the router labels each connection differently somehow?  I keep seeing the words "NAT" and "Socket" but googling "socket" keeps leading me to programming guides08:00
WhoNeedszzzHey guys, lately Verve has kept a constant blinking cursor, how do i make it stop doing that?08:00
InvisionfreeHi - I have a blank CD, I burn a Debian ISO to it, it says complete, I put it back in .. And ubuntu says its's a blank disk .. Why?08:00
rakibhi i am getting a problem when copy some text and then paste it any where like in chat, any text editor etc08:00
bring3Rat409, sorry were you fooled into thinking im human??08:00
Zoemamorphous, I only have one clients, and I have personally monitered all of their usage08:01
vltResistol: You'd rather look for NAT here than socket.08:01
gordonjcpZoem: what make is the laptop, anyway?08:01
WhoNeedszzzInvisionfree: try on another computer, maybe it didn't burn properly08:01
tyberiongeronimo89: ok, which one has better support?08:01
Zoemgordonjcp, HP something or other. not my laptop, but I know it's new and expensive08:01
bring3Invisionfree, im checking to see what other cd-r prog to recommend, can you try with another .ISO file? does burning regular files work ok?08:01
karllenzbring3 that did it08:01
InvisionfreeWhoNeedszzz: I only have this one .. And I've burned it a few different times08:02
gordonjcpZoem: ah well there you go, HP haven't done anything decent since the HP4508:02
amorphousthat becuase you're your client?08:02
bring3karllenz, woohoo! no idea what caused the problem with gparted, but im glad it worked eventually :)08:02
WhoNeedszzzInvisionfree: what did you use to burn the iso?08:02
rakibit pastes a text like this : http://paste.ubuntu.com/16790/08:02
amorphousgordon not 1945...?08:02
Zoemgordonjcp, that's what I was trying to say, but people where getting offended. HP calculators still rock, btw, but the polish notation ones where best08:02
InvisionfreeWhoNeedszzz: K3b08:02
karllenzbring3: thank u very much08:02
Zoemamorphous, quite so :D08:02
rakibcan any one help me regarding this problem08:02
WhoNeedszzzInvisionfree: hmm that's what I use, there shouldn't be a problem08:02
amorphousHehehe...08:02
bring3karllenz, sure np :)08:03
gordonjcpZoem: if you're from the UK and older than your late 20s, you may remember a great little home computer called the Jupiter Ace08:03
vltResistol: The most obvious thing that's different when two PCs behind a NAT router connect to cnn.com's HTTP port 80, for ex., is the source port they use. And even if they use the same, the router maps one of them to another ...08:03
bring3Invisionfree, give Brasero a try?08:03
amorphousRight - boot parameters - who's got a decent list of usefull ones?08:03
Zoemgordonjcp, I never met one, but I've heard of it08:03
dratei'm sorry rakib, what was the problem?08:03
gordonjcpZoem: among a sea of BASIC-running things, it had Forth08:03
WhoNeedszzzInvisionfree: try booting it, maybe ubuntu is just being weird08:03
gordonjcpZoem: I had one but the case crumbled (!)08:03
Zoemgordonjcp, that would explain the reputation08:03
rakibthe problem is that whenever i paste a text it shows garbage text08:04
gordonjcpZoem: wonderful machines, crap build quality08:04
drateOh, that would be a problem.08:04
WhoNeedszzzInvisionfree: though I have to ask, why do u want to use Debian?08:04
rakibdrate: the problem is that whenever i paste a text it shows garbage text08:04
drateWhat are you copying from?08:04
gordonjcpZoem: however they're simple enough to actually build replicas out of common parts08:04
InvisionfreeWhoNeedszzz: Ubuntu is starting to suck for me honestly ;(08:04
Resistolvlt thank you!08:05
WhoNeedszzzInvisionfree: In what way? For one I would recommend Xubuntu08:05
bring3Invisionfree, stick with it :)08:05
Zoemgordonjcp, if I were going to build a replica out of common parts, it would be a lisp machine circa 198408:05
rakibdrate:  i am copying from texteditor, chat, etc08:05
draterakib: when you coppy from anything?08:05
gordonjcpZoem: geek08:05
Resistoli was actually having trouble sleeping with that bothering me hah08:05
=== kevin_ is now known as kevin083
Zoemgordonjcp, lol, I have been in this channel for over an hour now08:05
draterakib: is this a new install of ubuntu?08:05
vltHello. xserver starts with a much too high resolution (1600x1***). How can I set it to fixed 1280x1024@85?08:05
gordonjcpZoem: should probably take this to #ubuntu-offtopic08:05
bring3Invisionfree, can you burn regular files (not .ISO) onto CD using k3b?08:05
Invisionfreebring3: IMHO, it's getting worse .. I've been a user since Edgy08:05
Invisionfreebring3: No idea, trying Brasero08:05
rakibdrate: i am using ubuntu 7.1008:05
WhoNeedszzzvlt: What gfx card?08:06
ResistolI'm thinking of setting up file and print sharing, as well as trying out making an ftp server and hosting a website using Hardy on this PC08:06
Rat409Invisionfree: did you checksum the downloaded .iso08:06
bring3Invisionfree, if this is worse, Ubuntu used to be awesome since it's pretty great now :D08:06
draterakib: I am not an expert, but my first guess is a language/font problem.08:06
WhoNeedszzzInvisionfree: What version are you using? Because Hardy rox my sox :D08:06
draterakib: do you have a non-english localization?08:06
rakibdrate: nope08:07
InvisionfreeHardy set my sox on fire :x08:07
bring3Invisionfree, i had to try a couple CD-R progs but one of them worked just fine eventually, which is ok with me since they were all free, whereas in Windows i get to but several software packages before finding out they dont work :(08:07
rakibdrate: i am using english only08:07
WhoNeedszzzInvisionfree: So in what way(s) is it sucking?08:07
draterakib: is it a fresh installation?08:07
bring3Invisionfree, so you have warm feet, sounds good to me :D08:07
draterakib: I mean... have you had Ubuntu 7.10 for a while?08:07
vltWhoNeedszzz: `lspci` says "nVidia GeForce 6100". `lsmod` lists an "nvidia" module.08:07
rakibdrate: no i am using for more than 3 months08:08
rakibit was not a problem before08:08
WhoNeedszzzvlt: Install the nvidia binary from nvidia.com. It comes with a great utility08:08
grndslmvlt:  like i said, i'd rather not use dpkg-reconfigure.... just edit the modelines to look like the xorg.conf i showed you08:08
draterakib: andd this problem just started?08:08
grndslmvlt: also, make sure you " aptitude install nvidia-glx-new " instead of just the older nvidia-glx08:08
WhoNeedszzzbring3: Windows is better known as WinBLOWS08:08
rakibdrate: yes suddenly started and can not figure out where is the problem08:08
draterakib: the only thing I can imagine is if you installed something or updated something recently that threw it off.08:09
Kaemon12433what a night08:09
Kaemon12433anywho08:09

MaskedOneLol no, story behind that is when I was a newbie I had so much info on here you would know right where i lived and what my full name was etc...09:42
bcbooter_also vice versa, for example cant play audio in Rhythm box is a game is open09:42

Invisionfreebcbooter_: I believe you can only play one thing with sound at a time .. Overlaps fail09:43
MaskedOnebcbooter, it is because of the sound server on Ubuntu09:43
InvisionfreeTD: ... Are you kidding? DAPPER? THAT IS OLD.09:43
Invisionfreevery, VERY old.09:43
bring3krabador, well it sounds similar to what happens with me using an ati card, and im able to boot at least to edit config09:43
MaskedOneThey now have PulseAudio which is supposed to fix this but it has too many bugs to be of much use thus far09:43
bcbooter_hmmmm09:44
TDInvisionfree: blame canonical then09:44
MaskedOnetry using packade manager to get AOSS (it forces programs that want OSS to use ALSA which solved some of theproblems (though not even close to all of em)09:44
TDInvisionfree: it's the LTS version09:44
beliso, noone else having problems with external mass storage devices beeing recognized?09:44
InvisionfreeTD: So is Hardy Heron, the latest version..09:44
FlannelInvisionfree: There's nothing wrong with dapper.09:44
MaskedOnethen when playing a game do a ALT+F2 then type in AOSS then the program name09:44
TDwhich apparently isn't all that stable yet :-( and besides, it's not my decision when to upgrade09:45

hcI don't need Gnome, because it's on my server09:48
MaskedOneTry VLC09:48
Flannelhc: One wonders why you installed a GUI in the first place.  Alright, What version of Ubuntu?09:48
marlunIs there a way to get the name of an application in gnome? When selecting items in the "Install multimedia codecs" the confirmation windows has the same keyboard shortcut to both Cancel and Config. I would like to report it as a bug.09:48
FreezeHeatMasked0ne you are my hero :D09:48
MaskedOnelol welcome, never been called that before :D09:48
hcFlannel: You're not the only one. But I had 8.04 on a CD, so I figured this would be quicker than downloading, burning and then installing.09:49
FlannelTD: There are, ctrl-alt-unicode, you may also just want to change your keyboard layout09:49
TDyeah, ok. i remember now. so i have to memorize the unicode values for the characters? :(09:50
Flannelhc: Desktop CD?  Since you know the alternate CD has a CLI only install.  Anyway, http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purekde has a method of removing ubunut (and installing kubuntu), just chop the install kubuntu-desktop off from the end09:50

Markki mean it boots from disk, but i want to try find someway to get past that menu where it asks to install, run the operating system via disk (live) etc09:52
Markkpass*09:52
hcFlannel: Ah, great! Now I'm uninstalling a lot of packages. And yes, I am aware of the Alternate/server CD, but I already had the desktop version on a CD. If I'd picked the alternate, I would have to download it, burn it and then install it.09:52
lukerohdeHi All, anyone know how to mount a smb share in user space.  smbmount is no good because I require root privileges.   smbfuse is no good because the share is in another subnet out of netbios range.  I'm tearing my hair out.09:53

MaskedOneRipps I used to back when, sorry don't anymore :(09:54
Flannelhc: That'll only remove the gnome-specific stuff, you'll still have whatever X libs get installed (and are common to ubuntu and kubuntu).  You may want to remove everything that isn't in ubuntu-standard, ubuntu-minimal, and your linux-kernel metapackage. (and ssh, I imagine)09:54

kosharibrocebeats you need compix installed to use emerald10:44
bring3drunkn718, maybe, but i think you still would have had to have set it up already :( maybe that is something you can configure now?10:44

drunkn718basically I had 4 500gb drives, now 3 with the failure. I'm really hurting for hd space so I was wondering if I could do LVM and get 1.5gb and have some sort of protection10:45

brocebeatsi did try that10:46
brocebeatsbut when i restart my session drash it goes back to gtk theme manager10:46
drashbrocebeats: yes, you should add that command to a script and autostart it to make it stick10:46
bazhangbrocebeats, put it in startup session then10:47
bring3drunkn718, yeah that sounds about right, you might look into other options like ZFS or Hadoop, but they are probably much more of a hassle to configure10:47
brocebeatstrue i didnt know if was better to use the window decoration thing instead of a session10:47
drunkn718yeah definitely, argh damn broken hard drives! :P10:47
MadHagbtw dont put awn in the startup session, it looks horrible when it starts10:48

brocebeatsthanks drash i got it all set up now10:49

lukerohdebring3 pyneighborhood can't connect???10:49
bring3drunkn718, there might be some way to ignore the badblocks and use the rest of the drive, but i guess thats what the badblocks program is supposed to do D: is the drive still under warrenty?10:49
bring3lukerohde, hrm make sure to enter the same info you usually use to connect to the SMB10:49
drunkn718it probably is but the people I work with probably threw the receipt away, theres no way this drive is more than 1-2 years old, and don't most drives come with 3 or even 5 year warranties?10:50
bring3lukerohde, you need to first add the machine, then browse it as user and enter username/pass, then finally mount the share :)10:50
bring3drunkn718, it depends on manufacturer, you know the brand? the nice thing about drives is that they can usually tell if it is still under warranty or not just from the serial number, you might want to go ahead and pull the drive, then visit the manufacturer site and fill out the warranty claim info10:51

James|gnomeHi zn3t13:15
ikoniakeri: it's not for no reason13:15
zn3thi13:15
ikoniakeri: what username are you using to connect to the samba share ?13:15
cdcSlart: that is humorous13:15
keriikonia i have to have one?13:16

rd__if i minimize any application windows, the application disapear, this is happened to me this day after i made last update, any one has same problem?13:16
keriif everyone full control on the share is set  , why do i need a username anyway/?13:16
ikoniakeri: yes13:16

MrMistthe numeric keypad restarts X... I need to fix this... any ideas??13:18
ikoniatetraedr: mp3 player with authorization ?13:18
keriikonia, it has to deal with both right?  if xubuntu is having problems saying 'fail to mount my xp shares, thats probably why?13:18
ikoniatetraedr: mp3 players are music players,13:18
ikoniakeri: xp shares are handled through samba13:18
tetraedrikonia, mp3 player that can authorize on stream server13:18
ikoniaoh13:19
keriikonia ok13:19
keriso i somehow have to figure out how to connect from winxp as a user.13:19

keriikonia, thats why i thought maybie since i dont have a way to even know how to read ntfs partitions, thats why it fails to mount any of my smb shares13:22
selocolit seems like after the upgrade, a lot of file types are not recognized as text files anymore. i get "Couldn't display $pathtofile" .. There is no app installed for this file type. is this the intended upgrade of gedit? thanks13:22

drazelHello everyone14:15
ActionParsnipSimple Wireless Scanner (SWScanner) is an application for Linux environments designed for scanning, configuring, and (in general) managing wireless networks. SWScanner is also a powerfull wardriving tool, and has a high level of compatibility with NetStumbler, a similar and well-known application designed for other operating system14:15
erUSULlaeg: it works for me quite fine (esd worked too as did dmix) (your) anecdotal evidence is not evidence at all ;)14:15
drazelI am having a problem while executing apt-get update on ubuntu6.14:15

Soopahey all, I'm trying to install Ubuntu to my notebook, but the cd-rom doesn't work and I can't boot from USB on it.. any suggestions?14:15
drazelis it normal ?14:15
Soopaand I'm too much of a noob to try a network installation...14:16

sirlarkis there a way I can set up an alert for when a particular package update becomes available, e.g. I'm going to now set up grub.conf to boot the previous kernel, so virtual box works, but want to know when I can revert to the latest kernel (i.e. when the vboxdrv modules become available for the latest kernel)14:55

dbmoodbif you really want to remove it just kill the files i guess but i don't recommend it15:42
gordonjcpadamt: this is deliberate15:42
gordonjcpadamt: it avoids the Bricked Cisco Fiasco15:42
jribadamt: because it doesn't do things you didn't ask it to do15:43
joaopintonjero, no, anyway a full install does not fit on a cd, and you are not expected to create a live cd from a real install15:43
adamtgordonjcp: it also avoids openssl fiascos? :P15:43
njerohmm, I suppose that makes sense15:43

StevenXguys, any suggestions for converting pdf to doc / txt / rtf?15:44
soundrayadamt: so after all your ranting about broken packages, the problem is a failure on your part to keep track of your disk usage. What a show!15:44
jribadamt: if you're having trouble removing old packages just make some room on /boot by moving an *old* and unneeded initrd.* file somewhere else and then try apt again15:44
dbmoodbgordon i heard that ubuntu breaking so many packages downstream vandalism15:44
gordonjcpadamt: the whole broken openssl with weak keys was caused by a stupid Debian maintainer tampering with stuff they didn't understand15:44

jribadamt: all I can tell you is I had this same issue 5 minutes ago, with the same error complaining I was out of space.  I freed up space like you seem to have done, and removed the oldest kernel I had and it stopped the error15:54

SlartCharbucks: have you checked the nvidia linux forums? just in case it's the nvidia driver .. I think that got updated too15:56

nikinn soon; if you'd like to donate early,15:57
adamtgordonjcp: lucky you15:57
gordonjcpadamt: so that suggests that there isn't a problem with the kernel packages15:57
CharbucksJack_Sparrow: that might be a good idea.  I tried using the nv driver, and I got a "bad V_MOS checksum" warning in my Xorg.0.log.  Also, there's a new high-pitched whine coming from somewhere in the compy... so I'm thinking it's hardware15:57

linuxkrnmonkeyBox: try 12916:15
fostotubuntugeek, well.... since you can only see what the webserver allows you to, you can always tell wget to recurse all links on the site and download them to16:15
fostotbut you can't just magically have wget tell you every directory on the server unless it's a cleartext list of directories instead of a webpage16:16
Jack_SparrowmonkeyBox firefox..edit..pref..content.. set font size there?16:16
linuxkrnmonkeyBox: that is what X server thinks your display is running, if it's incorrect, you need to modify the xorg.conf with the proper DPI.16:16

hwildewhen a computer grabs a dhcp address, does it register with the domain?16:18
ubuntugeekhmm, is seems to be downloading... thank you much all16:18
ubuntugeek* it seems16:18
jonaskoelkerhwilde: not sure what you mean, but I think it depends on the dhcp server16:18
fostotactually it depends on the router firmware you are using, some will see the dhcp request and register a dns entry to point to that dhcp ip from the computer name, but most do not (at least not that i have seen)16:19
jonaskoelkerhwilde: or, if you mean something else, have a look in /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf and the dhclient manual; ISTR that one can optionally send a hostname16:20
monkeyBoxlinuxkrn, I'm thinking it's a bug in firefox, since it only seems to be happening in firefox.  All my other apps seem to work fine as far as font sizes go16:20
soundrayubuntugeek: you will need to spend some time with man wget, otherwise your local mirror will be unusable16:20

durybelieve me16:54
rhiltonbut the only known cause of the problem is: "The problem is: libcurl allows customized certificate checking if it is built with OpenSSL, but not with NSS (Fedora 9's libcurl). We can only either accept all certificates (which we don't want to do) or deny all mismatched certificates for libcurl+NSS. "16:54

anirudh0ChaosTheory_, there are specific latex packages to allow you to do that..iirc its called metafont..afaik its a standard in the general scientific community..so its worth your while to learn it17:25
ai3gtmczloog, how can I use 1024x768?17:25

mariahey guys, is it possible to get compiz working on a ati mobility 7500 on hardy? i couldnt find anything helpful online17:26
stelakkashello17:26
BedManMattehluzr: why would you want to alter sudo, just tweak the configuration file and you should be able to do just about anything you want with it17:26
anirudh0Mattehluzr, hence your problem :)17:26
MattehluzrBedMan, apparently it's not working17:26
durybbl17:26
Mattehluzranirudh0, why is it not a problem on LFS builds, Slackware, Debian/sid or anything else, then?17:26
anirudh0Mattehluzr, any modifications must be appended to the end of line17:27
anirudh0*file17:27
joaopintoMattehluzr, I am using linux more than a decade, to switch to a specific user with that user's password you use su, sudo was introduced later, and the default configuration is to provide the invoking user's password17:27
anirudh0Mattehluzr, probably coz you copy/paste in the lfs build ;)17:27
ai3gtmczloog, its still not there17:27
joaopintoMattehluzr, if you want to use the targets password, you don't need sudo at all17:27
zloogai3gtmc: hrm. let me google that one for a bit17:27
joaopintosu -c does the job17:27
ai3gtmczloog, ok thanks17:27
anirudh0joaopinto, will it work on *buntu though..since there is no root?17:28
Mattehluzrjoaopinto, am aware..have not seen sudo behave this way before17:28
joaopintoanirudh0, not to su to root...17:28
BedMananirudh0: there is a root account, you just have to be creative to get to it...17:28
zloogai3gtmc: just to make sure, you did reboot after installing nvidia drivers, right?17:28

=== sport|timeout is now known as sportman
Mattehluzrjoaopinto, also, checking the changelogs, the behaviour was modified to bring about the 'ask for current user password' behaviour..which differs from sudo's natural behaviour when built from source17:29
joaopintoMattehluzr, I use sudo on comercial Unixes, the default configuration I have always found is the invkings user password, like you can clearly understand, the other behavior is already provied by the standard "su"17:29

Mattehluzrjoaopinto, okay, I haven't seen that on Solaris or IRIX either..so *something* I've been doing has been changing this from the very beginning, I guess17:30
ai3gtmczloog, nope17:30
ai3gtmczloog, ill try that thanks17:30
BedManMattehluzr, joaopinto:  I have to agree with joaopinto.  sudo has always asked for the invoking users's password, but that behavior can be modified with the configuration file if you desire.17:30

Ward1983manoff, but what will happen to other progs using mysql? since they have their own login they;ll remain working?19:45
MaskedOneTHE_Stig, you need root permissions to do that19:46
MaskedOnedo ALT+F2 then type in gksu nautilus19:46
manoffWard1983: depends how they login to the mysql server? do they use the mysql root to login?19:46
Ward1983manoff, aha nice, so my tools will still be able to login and interact with their databases19:46
THE_Stigand how can i get that?19:46
MaskedOneGo to your bin folder and you can do what you wish ( be careful cause this is root area so it can mess things up)19:46
Ward1983manoff, mythtv does not use root thats for sue19:46
Ward1983sure19:46

Ward1983manoff, btw mythtv is nice, you should try it sometime, its amazing19:46
THE_Stigthank you!19:47
manoffWard1983: so when you change to root password and some app logs in with root, it does not work anymore becuase the passwd is changed19:47
manoffWard1983: got it?19:47
Ward1983yep19:47
MaskedOneNo problem, enjoy :D19:47
Ward1983but no app uses it :)19:47

brygeeJalathan: any luck?19:55
MaskedOneSliMM, for me I can run effects but my card isnt well supported so it laggs more than it should, so I turn it off and it runs slick19:55
SliMMMaskedOne: well, I had them off for a while, and it worked better, but still quite poor19:55
murattidkt: ok, i will. this ubuntu is installed by me in windows, and i need to move it onto a ext3 partition, is there any way?19:55
KaiForceSliMM how much RAM do you have?19:55
MaskedOneSLiMM, how much RAM, Processor speed, etc... do you have?19:55
SliMMMaskedOne: my card is well supported, but it's old19:55
cdecarlotacosalad: you should be able to /join ##java19:55

IronJanamendo: I think it's the hard drive. my cd rom drives were listed as /dev/cdromX19:55
brygeeJalathan: aka not for ubuntu?19:56

SliMMKaiForce: what is "pagefile"?19:57
amenadotacosalad-> just my opinion, undernet #java is frienlier anyways19:57
dktmuratti: but i would think that it would have resized your ntfs part and then created an ext3 part for you19:57
MaskedOneSLiMM should be fine, 512 is what i used to have.......Might want to search for people with similar problems on www.ubuntuforums.org19:57
tacosaladamenado - thanks, i'll try that19:57
Jalathanbrygee: KDE4 is in the repo's, and you could try installing & running "ktorrent-kde4" (sudo apt-get install ktorrent-kde4) under KDE3.  there might be another option though...19:57

ASULutzy_adriaan: Yea, that's true, but when it comes down to it, if you're actually going to be using Ubuntu legitimately then you should really give it an ext3 partition to rest in instead of sticking it inside NTFS20:00

sparkyyJack_Sparrow, was it supposed to be in the application menu somewhere?20:01
_adriaanASULutzy: I mean, I do hope people who like it transfer to an actual hard drive install :)20:01
ASULutzy_adriaan: lol, well, I've seen it happen more than a few times that the Wubi install turns into a pseudo-permanent install20:01

joaopintocosmic_, ls -i lists the files prefixed with the inode number, the inode is the file location on the file system, is unique to each file21:30
mumhuhhm ok thanks... guess ill need to look into just how minimal the install is21:30
joaopintocosmic_, then you use find with exec rm to find and remove the file with the specified inode number21:30
cosmic_joaopinto:  i know that , but whats with the find command21:30
mDemocritusamrik: indeed it isn't. the latest vanilla kernel supposedly fixes it, based on the comments on that bug, but again, since it's not my system, i'd prefer to keep it simple21:30

joaopintoaddeboy, synaptic does not install packages out of the repositories, unless you have created a repository yourself22:22

joaopintoAdeman, first, if you have installed the package correctly, there must be an /usr/bin/vlc, that is the default install path22:25
joaopintoif there is no /usr/bin/vlc, the package was not installed22:25

m_newtonmDemocritus, oh, ok than port 80 it is, wait... i am running my own webserevr. will it interfear with that?22:27
mDemocritusm_newton: they probably just have the computers proxied, and only let http and https (80 and 443) out22:27
mDemocritusm_newton: ... yes22:27
joaopintoaddeboy, dpkg -S /usr/bin/vlc22:27
m_newtonmDemocritus, yes...? It will interfear with my webserver?22:27

nighmiHaving read the ubottu-link I was given, I've got to ask yet another time, cause it didn't help, or perhaps it would.. perhaps I just don't get it: is there a possibility of using multiple standard fonts for GTK? and if so, how would I do it?   that means.. I want to use different fonts for different scripts...23:07

Anthrounithow23:16
UBUNTUJAY123esnuchi xubuntu is lighter23:16
lbergmDemocritus: at least according to nm-applet.23:16
mDemocrituslberg: ouch... how far away? and what's between the wireless card and the router, if you imagine a straight line23:16
esnuchiok23:16
UBUNTUJAY123and if u want an even lighter one go with DSL23:16
mDemocrituslberg: you can doublecheck the tx/rx rate by running iwconfig23:16
vraalooks like i need the alternate iso ?23:16
fyrestrtreshear: use the 'server' install disk, in text mode. Install the base system only, use tons of swap. You can use it as a console, with 64MB of RAM, you can hardly run any window manager on it.23:17
tj83Broadcom.. that thread you sent me to seems to suggest your in a "testing" release.. One could expect propbelms... I can tell you that your Error is CPU scaling related.23:17
mDemocritusAnthrounit: during the install, when you set up partitions, tell it to use the entire second disk as /home23:17
tj83Broadcom beyond that i am afraid i am of no help.23:17
lbergmDemocritus: probably about 15 ft or less...and just one wall...but the router IS set to transmit at a strength of 2/10.23:17
Broadcomtj83: ok, should i file a bug?23:17
mDemocrituslberg: well, change that first of all23:17
ronyfyrestrtr: do you now what is the easy form to compress a file in several parts,,23:17
Anthrounitso what about the first disk can i still save files to it somewhere?23:17
mDemocrituslberg: try moving the router or the computer if possible23:17
esnuchii tried out DSL and it was very quick, but was lacking in a couple areas like problems with getting firefox plugins like flash working, and not having any sort of package manager23:17
Anthrounitlike if i download something23:18
tj83Broadcom.. if you want to contribute to the development i would but make sure its in the proper place for this testing release..23:18
lbergmDemocritus: ok....should i ramp it up all the way to 10? becuause, like I said, I was getting 54mbps before installing WinXP, and nothing has changed except on my computer's side...23:18
Broadcomtj83: i just realized, it only crashes when it is using batteries. must be somthing to do with the cpu scaling23:18
tj83I would revert to edgy which is "stable" for powerpc23:18
UBUNTUJAY123well with the specs i got with any older ubuntu or and older xubuntu23:18

Redhammerhello short and maybe stupid question, what could be the reason that some avi's on my computer has thumbnails and some only have icon, one example is I have encoded a recording twice in xvid one quant3 and one quant4 -- only the quant4 file has a thumbnail23:19
lbergmDemocritus: ok...brb23:19
Redhammerany ideas23:19
Broadcomtj83: im using it for testing mostly, running kubuntu, so i dont mind bugs23:19

Anthrounitbut is there anyway i can save my files to both hard disks?23:20
Redhammerother files work fine at either setting23:20
tj83Broadcom... well then i guess you are more "qualified" of a linux user than i am.. I am work in progress. But "testing" releases are certainly not meant for normal use.23:20
Redhammeror can it be too much video bitrate ?23:20

thropehi im trying to mount a disk by label, but its not showing up in /dev/disk/by-label and won't mount... I set the label with e2label23:20
BCM43tj83: i know, but i think i will stick with kubuntu 8.04.23:20
fyrestrtrrony: that will create 10 megabyte files that, when decompressed, will contain the contents of /some/directory23:21
thropeis there anything I need to do to rescan /dev/disk/by-* directories because none of the new ones show up23:21
Redhammermdemo I am using xvid (via avidemux) for all my encodings23:21

=== LeeKnux is now known as joku
Redhammersimilarly I have the issue also with some mpg files -- some have preview thumbnail some do not23:21

russe11What is the terminal equivalent to "select best server" to find the best repository mirror?23:21
mDemocritusRedhammer: ah... that's probably it.... xvid is pretty much mpeg4, with a few changes... i'm clueless to your problem beyond that23:22
Odd-rationaleesnuchi: yes, would have to choose commandline install from the boot up options menu23:22
tj83BCM43 no.. you would have to research that... I would go back to where you obtained the copy to start with.23:22

ronyfyrestrtr. so I need to use a special package?, or there are any in ubuntu?23:24

mDemocritusDaisuke_Ido: xfs is pretty darn good... i warn people about it mostly because of the Gentoo handbook explaination of it... if you have a good backup system, XFS will work fine23:37
mDemocritusDaisuke_Ido: i would recommend rsync for backups...23:38
daves111error says smtp something23:38
Daisuke_IdomDemocritus: i've definitely noticed that my drives are a tad slow, but it's 2x500gb SATA, shouldn't be crawling like that...  i'm guessing there's no way to convert a filesystem (reliably)23:38
BCM43is there any possibility of getting a problem with hardy heron on a ppc fixed?23:38

slashHas anyone else had issues with the latest 2.6.24-18 release and having the nvidia drivers being broken?23:39
fyrestrtresnuchi: try tvwm23:39
mDemocritusDaisuke_Ido: are they internal drives, or usb?23:39
Daisuke_Idofyrestrtr: you can launch a sincle app23:39
Daisuke_IdomDemocritus: internal23:39

slashmusikgoat, do so with caution.23:39
daves111because connecting to smtp server failed23:39
daves111 but I can send an email23:40
daxro1daves111: it normaly gives an error code , not sure but is there a thunderbird channel, is your mail server up ?23:40
musikgoatslash: what are you seeing?23:40
Daisuke_Idofyrestrtr: see geexbox - they pretty much launch mplayer with a custom GUI without loading a WM23:40
musikgoator not?23:40
fyrestrtrdaves111: this is a problem with your ISP/network, not Ubuntu.23:40
musikgoatslash: which nvidia drivers are you using?23:40
slashmusikgoat, the restricted modules package depends on nvidia-kernel-common and breaks23:40
lscapegoatlHello, I have a laptop that I'm trying to boot ubuntu to, can anyone assist me with this23:40
daxro1daves111: you could be restricted from sending large attachments23:40
mDemocritusDaisuke_Ido: you could always try out my favorite new filesystem that i know almost nothing about... zfs23:40
daves111daxro1: yes, I can send a email23:40
Daisuke_IdomDemocritus: i've heard good things about zfs23:41
BCM43is there any possibility of getting a problem with hardy heron on a ppc fixed?23:41
fyrestrtrDaisuke_Ido: They are launching a WM, even if it appears they are not. If they are using X, they have to use a WM. It is how X works. You can use a framebuffer and avoid X all together.23:41
daves111daxro1: i don't think so ... I used to be able to23:41
BCM43lscapegoatl: are you having problems?23:41
daxro1daves111: contact the mta and ask ( to be sure )23:41
fyrestrtrBCM43: always, but not likely as the arch is not supported anymore. However, if its fixed in debian, then you can ask for it to be included.23:41
Daisuke_Idofyrestrtr: actually, i'm pretty sure they use the framebuffer, nevermind then :)23:41
connorhello everyone23:42
daves111daxro1: mta??23:42
Ergo^ok any hint now how i can get all the stuff that were dependant reisntalled ?23:42

slashmuskigoat, I used to be able to still boot 2.6.24-17 and have X come back up, but with the 18 release X hangs and is unable to load the nvidia kernel module23:42
tyranosi m really upset with ubuntu right now and also the internet !!!!23:42
lscapegoatlI'm trying to boot ubuntu over PXE but I need an image, can anyone help?23:42
fyrestrtrBCM43: depends on the problem and where it originates. Is it a debian issue? Is it an issue with Ubuntu customizations? Is it coming from the software itself?23:42
