CoiotesI'm having problems getting my computer to record input from my mic. I can hear myself speak through my speakers/headset, but no program will record my mic. I has ALSA set as output, OSS set as input in sound settings. Any ideas, anyone?00:04
Masterof9puppetsHow do I check zvacet?00:04
Masterof9puppetsAnd how do I install the w32 codecs, I'm not sure if I have already zvacet00:05
Slart_!w32codecs | Masterof9puppets00:05
ubottuMasterof9puppets: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org00:05
CH1C0coites, edit>preferences, then check everything00:05
Masterof9puppetsI already have medibuntu00:05
Slart_Masterof9puppets: then "sudo apt-get install w32codecs" should do it00:06
bthorntonDoes Ubuntu hardy have support for online ext3 filesystem resizing?00:06
dragonlotushey all.  aplay -l shows my nvidia 2 onboard sound, alsamixer shows everything unmuted.  Headphones still aren't making any noise.  Any ideas?00:06
Coiotesv_v00:06
Slart_Masterof9puppets: or use synaptic.. if you like a gui better00:06
Masterof9puppets"Package w32codecs is not available" Slart00:06
bthorntonI know how to resize partitions/LVM offline, I'm just wondering if it has the kernel patches necessary to do it without unmounting...00:06

CH1C0virtualbox00:08
TuniX12onisciente:  you mean virtualizing?00:08
ompaulMasterof9puppets, sudo apt-get install libdvdcss200:08
Slart_Masterof9puppets: or rather.. what does "uname -a" tell you00:08
zvacetMasterof9puppets : in synaptic in seaarch box type name of package for example w32 and if you see green box on the left of package then package is installed if box is white then it is not installed00:08
Lokkahello, i upgrade my gutsy to hardy and i cant install wine 1r400:09

PwhdaveyHi I have a problem. I use Ubuntu, I have downloaded both Gnash and FlashPlayer plugin for Firefox but none of them work. I have checked in the Firefox addons and neither if them are there. It shows in Synaptic they are installed but how do I activate them?00:11
IndyGunFreakWolphie: what video device?00:11
TuniX12onisciente:  is that possible?00:11
zvacetMasterof9puppets : gedit /etc/apt/sources.list just to see if you added medibuntu repo00:11
WolphienVidia 8600GT00:11
Slart_Masterof9puppets: that x86_64 at the end means you're running 64bit ubuntu.. there is a 64bit package called w64codecs.. try that one instead00:11
ompaullejon, a screwdriver it the best way - you can identify lots if you know the make and model of the machine in some cases00:11
rhin0xTrying to update from gutsy to hardy complains about libnet1 and kills the update process on x64 platform, need advice, please00:11
oniscienteTunix12: I heard it is. There is something called Xen.00:12
soldatsPwhdavey: open firefox and type in the address bar "about:plugins" and see if flash is listed there00:12
IndyGunFreakWolphie: is it a dualhead card, or do you have two separate cards, or what?00:12
ompaul!xen | onisciente00:12
ubottuonisciente: XEN is a virtual machine monitor for x86 that supports execution of multiple guest operating systems with unprecedented levels of performance and resource isolation. Information on installing it for Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Xen00:12
Masterof9puppetsI have w64 too Slart_00:12

dragonlotusPwhdavey: sudo apt-cache search adobe flash00:12
ZaidenHow do I know what virtualbox kernal to install so I can use Windows XP? (If anyone knows)00:12
Slart_Masterof9puppets: ok.. then you have the codec-pack.. what was the original problem?00:12
dragonlotusPwhdavey: sudo apt-get install <package_name>      should take.00:12
ompaullejon, what info are you looking for chipsets are available in /proc and lshw00:12
dbuggerHello. I have a problem with Hardy. When I activate the ATI hardware acceleration and restart, X frozes up and I get a black screen of death. Help please!00:13
lejonompaul, I know what pci and usb devices I got, I need to know my motherboard model so I can figure out if coreboot v2 would work on my lappy00:13
zvacetMasterof9puppets : please,just look in your source list to be sure that you have medibuntu repo00:13
OrcKhsuZaiden: use the other version on Virtualbox.org, don't use the OSE version in the resposiotry00:13
WolphieThe card has 2 DVI ports00:13
IndyGunFreakWolphie: ok.. do you have the nvidia driver enabled in hardware drivers?(System/Admin/Hardware drivers)00:14
WolphieMy second monitor is however a VGA, although I have a DVI adapter for it00:14
Masterof9puppetsSlart_: THe problem was MP3s wont play00:14
dandel_i have an annoyance... any ideas on how to disable xchat from putting text on the lower part of the screen?00:14

TuniX12onisciente: google for it00:15

oniscienteTuniX12: amazing00:15
WolphieI can see hardware information in System > Preferences00:15
Mercureei think that might help you00:15
IndyGunFreakWolphie: not a panel.. Look in System/Admin/Hardware Drivers.. (tsa menu), do you have Nvidia drivers enabled00:15
sudobashmagic packet/wake on lan00:15
Slart_ajitam: I don't know if there is a way by using ssh.. but I think you can send a "magic packet" to the network card.. that wakes the computer up if the hardware allows it00:15
zvacetMasterof9puppets : in terminal type   gedit /etc/apt/sources.list  and scroll and look if medibuntu is there (most of the tome it is at the bottom of page)00:16
yukonhoHello - does anyone know a good site to look up what a kernel module does?00:16
patifaAnyone know how hard it would be to get a dual-screen setup where each screen is a different workspace and both have hardware acceleration?00:16
patifa(and if so, how?)00:16
WolphieYes, i don't see that menu00:16
IndyGunFreakpatifa: it doesn't work well .00:16
IndyGunFreakat least in my opinion.00:17
OrcKhsuZaiden: no problem, that version is a .deb file, just straight forward install, follow the prompt (it might prompt you to set up a user in the vbox usergroup, just click through)00:17
IndyGunFreakWolphie: what versio of ubuntu are you using?00:17
patifaIndyGunFreak,  I've got the super wide desktop thing going on00:17
WolphieI only see anything relating to drivers being Restricted Driver Manager00:17
Wolphie7.10 Desktop00:17
TuniX12onisciente: Xen maybe used on personal computers that run Linux but also have Windows installed. Traditionally, such systems are used in a dual boot setup, but with Xen it is possible to start Windows "in a window" from within Linux, effectively running applications from both systems at00:17
IndyGunFreakpatifa: same here..00:17
IndyGunFreakpatifa: twinview is really the best...00:17
ZaidenOrcKhsu: It's says "Failed to install" and opens up the black terminal window, but nothing appears00:18
IndyGunFreakWolphie: look in restricted driver manager, you're using an old version of Ubuntu, in the current version, its called Hardware drivers"00:18
WolphieOh ok sorry00:18
WolphieOk i've got it open00:18
IndyGunFreakWolphie: does it show the nvidia driver is enabled?00:18
patifaIndyGunFreak, well I'm using ATI00:19
WolphieI have the nVidia accelerated graphics driver enabled00:19
IndyGunFreakpatifa: oh ok.00:19
patifaI really wish I could have separate workspaces.00:19
=== solid_li` is now known as solid_liq
IndyGunFreakWolphie: ok, close that, then open a terminal, and type "sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings" no quotes00:19
OrcKhsuZaiden: did you get the x86 or the x86 64bit version?00:19
Fishe1hello, I'm having a little trouble with a multiseat and usb disk00:19
patifaThe functionality is already so close.  You can already move a window to the next workspace.  It would only make sense that that second workspace be another monitor.00:19
dragonlotusI don't understand why my sound isn't working.  Soundcard is listed under aplay, and all channels unmuted.  Any ideas?00:19
OrcKhsuZaiden: use this: https://cds.sun.com/is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/WFS/CDS-CDS_SMI-Site/en_US/-/USD/ViewProductDetail-Start?ProductRef=innotek-1.6-G-F@CDS-CDS_SMI00:20

SeaPhori am trying to mount an extra sata drive, i have 3 160gb sata drives, 1 has /, /home, and swap on it, the other 2 are fresh-formatted to ext3, fstab says the one with /, /home, and swap is dev/sdb1-6, but fdisk -l says dev/sda, and dev/sdb are clear and dev/sdc has 1-6 and the /, /home, and swap,,, so which is right?00:43
HemebondAnyway, I'm off to reinstall Ubuntu onto an existing RAID0 partition.00:43
IndyGunFreakDIL: you should be able to go from 6.06 to 8.04, since they are both LTS00:43
HardDiskDIL, technically you can, but be prepared to have things breaking.  backup backup backup, the best suggestion is to do a clean install.00:43
HemebondActually... I might burn a LiveCD first.00:43
HardDiskah he's on 6.06..00:44

m0u5eDIL: i would just recommend reformatting the system, you will get a cleaner install00:44
IndyGunFreakyes, definitely back up00:44
ajhtiredwolf_Hemebond: do you know, is there supposed to be a Input and Output listening under ALSA in the audio settings in the wine cfg. I have wave out and in, midi out and in, but no regular out and in00:44
HardDiskhey IndyGunFreak00:44
IndyGunFreak!upgrade | DIL00:44

Masterof9puppetsIs there anyone that can enter a query with me about this?00:44
IndyGunFreakHardDisk: understood, likewise.00:44
m0u5eDIL: an upgrade would take hours, a back up and reformat will take the time took to back up + 20 minutes00:45
HardDiskalmost 3am, so I will only stay for a bit00:45
prabuany 1 knows how to get kiba dock ?00:45
Hemebondajhtiredwolf_: Wine settings should be fine. Can you record in "Sound Recorder"?00:45
IndyGunFreakm0u5e: i agree w/ that.. i never upgrade, but if he's gonna upgrade, going from 6.06 to 8.04 will be easiest00:45
m0u5eDIL: not only will you have a clean install, but you're won't have possible breaks / overlapping applications00:45
HardDiskm0u5e, he may be running a server, therefore an upgrade may be better for him, he has to decide.00:45
DILi have 8.04 but it would not install on an old system so i went back to 6.04 which installed ok so working the hard way to 8.0400:45
m0u5eDIL: like HardDisk said, its up to you :), if you're running a server it may be the best course of action...00:46

brandan_What's a different program I can get for opening Archives?01:17
akahigeafallenhope -- yes01:17
afallenhopeakahige: that's the issue ;) I have the same problem.01:18
benkayillriginal: try the burning to CD thing if you are really confused. The site I pointed you two wants you to write that little script to a file, like "convertmymusic.sh". Then make the file executable with "chmod u+x convertmymusic.sh". Finally, move the file to the directory with your wma files and run it with "./convertmymusic.sh"01:18
akahigeafallenhope -- is there any kind of fix. this sucks.01:18

afallenhopeMasterof9puppets: you need to download it to your /var/pidgin/plugins01:19

brandan_What's a different program I can get for opening Archives?01:20
benkayeboyjr: you can certainly change it by editing "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" (be sure to back up that file in case you mess up).01:20
afallenhopeMasterof9puppets: wget http://downloads.guifications.org/plugins//Plugin%20Pack/purple-plugin_pack-2.3.0.tar.bz2 ; tar zxvf purple-plugin_pack-2.3.0.tar.bz2  ; make ; sudo make install01:21

spantherhello there :) i want to know how long this "scrollkeeper-update" runs at 100.0% CPU ?01:27
benkayspanther: depends on the size of your filesystem. Despite appearences, it runs at low processor priority and so shouldn't slow you down very much.01:28
spantherbenkay, just wanted to ask if everythings fine :)   (sometimes things turned 100% because of a bug you know)01:28
spantherbut now it was going down at 4% so i think its fine for now right?01:29

deinspanjerthruxton: Hrm.  Okay.  What is the best term emulation to try to run with to get a "pretty" terminal? e.g. what is Ubuntu most suited to displaying in color and with good ncurses support?02:31
thornomadlegend2440: hmm ... do you have the right deb line for that ? i'm just uncommenting what came with the install -- didn't realize something was missing ...02:32
thruxtondeinspanjer: rxvt-unicode and xterm are both really good terminals02:32
Flannelthornomad: He's correct.  You only have main, restricted, and universe.  If you go to software sources, you can add mutliverse02:32

Flannelthornomad: If you prefer editing, add " multiverse" everywhere you've got a "universe"02:32
|Juan|hopefully, ive coming here quite often with no answers02:32
|Juan|* been02:32
Flannelthornomad: so, deb [url] [version] universe becomes deb [url] [version] universe multiverse.  Or add them on separate lines, etc.02:33

thornomadlegend2440: thanks as well !  i have a server install so will have to do it manually02:34
deinspanjerthruxton: So you think what is actually going on here is that iTerm isn't up to snuff as far as emulation of xterm goes?02:34
nosa-jbenkay thanks agen for all your help02:35
thruxtondeinspanjer: im not sure, im not terminal guru, but as i understand it, the machine you ssh into has to have to correct terminfo file for the emulator your using, i would suspect the ubuntu server has no idea what iTerm is02:35

NorthLionessHardDisk: It says that AIGLX is default for ubuntu03:09
eboyjrHardDisk: Do you know how to revert to default of Ubuntu's video drivers and setup only?03:09
gluonmanHardDisk, I already have ubuntu-restricted-extras installed.03:09
whikhow do i load a game via terminal in usr/local/games03:09
whikwhould i just cd there03:09
HardDiskeboyjr, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg03:09
HardDiskwhik, no the game should have made a link in your home dir03:10
gluonmanHardDisk, I only started having this problem after I upgraded to Hardy Heron. Somehow I cannot access any kind of online java-based game or anything like that.03:10
eboyjrHardDisk: For me, all that does is setup the keyboard stuff...03:10
HardDiskwhik, or if you installed it via apt then its in your games folder under applications03:10
PapaJDubgluonman does it tell you what plugin you need?03:10
Malik_o man03:10
UbuntuLosttest03:10
HardDiskeboyjr, sudo nvidia-settings if you have a nvidia card03:10

whiki didnt know the command to install via apt03:10
rob_gluonman: you didnt happen to downgrade to 2.0 did you?03:11
HardDiskwhik, go to add/remove or in administration/synaptic03:11
gluonmanPapaJDub, one sight led me to a link to install Java. But it just installed a .bin file that does nothing. Other sites say "missing plugins" but have nothing listed.03:11
|Juan|I have a main user whos session I keep always open. Then I have a separate users for anyone else who wants to use the computer. Since I upgraded to Hardy, whenever the separate user logs in after my user's session is locked, it comes to a point when that separate user automatically leaves its session, goes to the gdm screen, re-authenticates and continues with its session while mine is killed. Any clues?03:11
HardDiskfor those new to ubuntu check out these links03:11

IndyGunFreakMalik_: boot ubuntu, and try to log into your router, most likely, if you can log into your router, that will most likely rule out your ethernet device being detected.03:18

gluonmanDoes it tell you that you need a plugin?03:29
Malik_HardDisk: wat r u saying ot u want me to show u the message somehow03:29
PapaJDubkoshiie - if that is your problem, there's a fix which is to install flash 10 beta.  but you should see if killing pulseaudio fixes you next time to confirm that that's your issue03:29
Malik_HardDisk: because I can03:29
IndyGunFreakMalik_: its going to be very difficult to help you w/o you getting online03:29

dr_Williszaccour,  burning avi files to dvd.. and 'converting' avi files to 'dvd-video' are two TOTALLY different tasks. :)03:39
Malik_no03:39
IndyGunFreakMalik_: ok03:39
zaccouroh, i thought watching them on the disc were the same03:39
dr_Williszaccour,  you dont find 'avi' files on a video-dvd.  you will find other kinds of files. :) explore a video-dvd some time and see.03:40
IndyGunFreakMalik_: reboot to Ubuntu, and insert your usb wireless device in the usb port.. then open a terminal, and run   "lsusb" no quotes(thats an L).. write down how it identifies your wireless device03:40
zaccourwhere is dvd stored by default?03:40
dr_Williszaccour,  there are dvd players out that can play avi and other data files from a dvd disk.03:40
nickrudeboyjr probably 300-400 lines in, there will be a section where the card gets recognized, and the xserver assigns a driver. like fglrx, nvidia, intel, or vesa for most people03:40

Nutzebahn?04:23
IndyGunFreakGuest19406: http://www.frostwire.com04:23
dr_Willisyuri_,  you basicially need to configure grub to tell the kernel the proper place to look. That can be an issue because some machines 'move' around the drive letters if they boot from the usb gizmo,04:23
yuri_dr_Willis: the way i understand it, the usb key is hd0 if I boot from it04:24

nagashola04:51
Starnestommyzaccour: freeware is free, but you can't copy it, modify it, look at the source code, or redistribute it in most cases04:51
ahboynow i know that /lib/modules/2.6.24-16-generic exists but Build doesnt04:51

Starnestommyzaccour: in other words, it's proprietary04:52
tech0007ahboy: sudo apt-get install build-essential04:52
zaccouroh, i thought freeware could be modified. i see there is a difference, thanks04:52
crimsunahboy: you need the corresponding linux-headers-$(uname -r) package installed if you want the build symlink04:52
ahboytech i did build-essential already04:52
Starnestommyzaccour: free software can be modified though, but the difference between free and freeware is confusing04:52

hdevalencezaccour: well with freeware the free is as in no cost, but in Free Software it's free as in freedom05:13
cabrioleurhdevalence, limited freedom :-D05:14
hdevalencezaccour: the freedom to do nearly everything you want05:14
zaccouri think i got it, thanks05:14
hdevalencecabrioleur: well you can't take away other people's freedom05:14
Ninjavidualtech0007: i did it but nothing happened and the prompt cursor is on a new blank line underneath05:15
cabrioleurhdevalence, no, but you can give them much more than GPL can offer. Hence popularity of BSD in many solutions.05:15
tech0007Ninjavidual: check if you can read/write to it05:15
whileimherehi can anyone tell me why video in vlc will not play fullscreen but inbstead it just has a big blac box around it?05:16
hdevalencecabrioleur: well the point of the gpl is to guarantee the four fundamental freedoms to everyone05:16
hdevalencecabrioleur: and it prevents you from doing things which would go against freedom for all, like making a proprietary derivative05:16

swedekiddr_Willis: do i need to install that?05:33
cabrioleuryoanis, what's the service provider?05:33
yoanisi'm running into the same issue with kmail05:33
dr_Willisswedekid,  no idea.. if you want to be a samba server. you will.. if you want to do some simple/quick file transfers. i tend to use ssh and winscp.05:34
yoaniscabrioleur:well, he's using gnome and i'm using kde05:34
nickrudyoanis try again with thunderbird; if they all won't get the mail it's at the server end I'd say05:34
cabrioleuryoanis, but the mail service (google.mail.com, yahoo.com etc?)05:34
swedekiddr_Willis: are there any tutorials for setting up ssh and winscp that are good?05:34

wolf_nonewmsgs: what should i change my settings to in System - preferences - sound, ive tinkered them around05:49
IndyGunFreakuser4: i think most nvidia cards will work w/o issue, as long as they arent really really old05:49
owen1going to create a new partition. do i need to defrag or something similar?05:49
wolf_nonewmsgs: I have default mixer track set as audigy 2 ZS (blahblah) (alsoMixer)05:49

tech0007jayde_drag0n: use chown05:50
wormeateris it the add remove program?05:50
owen1IndyGunFreak: so in ubuntu, all i need to do is insert the live cd to create a partition?05:50
user4this sux  for the linux world - to not support old pc components05:51
IdleOnewormeater, System> Administraion > Synaptic package manager05:51
IndyGunFreakowen1: yes, but it might be wise to defrag under windows, then install, is what i'm saying05:51
user4on windows xp you could install a graphics card with 8 mb of vram and will work05:51
user4why isnt' the same on linux05:51
jayde_drag0ntech0007: but that doesn't tell me why it changed in the first place.. NOR make sure whatever is wrong .. won't cause it to do it again05:51
owen1IndyGunFreak: i have no win..05:51
dr_Willisuser4,  linux has better support for old hardware then windows... you could always use a older release of linux that might support the old stuff.. or try some linux variant that is more focused on older hardware05:51
IndyGunFreakowen1: then don't worry about it, partition and install05:52
jayde_drag0ntech0007: AND should i chown home.. or chown home/username05:52
tech0007what happend before the problem?05:52
user4but the ubuntu is easier to use :(05:52
dr_Willisuser4,  ive not had any issues with any of my nvidia agp video cards. - some new PCIExpress cards have issues.05:52
crdlbuser4: you're using wine which makes things worse05:52
jayde_drag0ntech0007: i rebooted05:52
user4what should i use then to get my game on?05:52
user4cause cedega is worse from what i've read05:53
user4is there a third solution?05:53
nonewmsgs+05:53
tech0007jayde_drag0n: 'sudo chown -hR <yourusername> /<pathtodrive>'05:53
dr_Willisuser4,  try the latest wine, check the wine app database for tweaks for your specific game.05:53
owen1IndyGunFreak: do i need to install grub on the new partition?05:53
wolf_nonewmsgs: hey cool, sound recorder works now, but everything still sounds horrible and teamspeak still doesnt work05:54
IndyGunFreakowen1: grub will install automatically at the end of the install05:54
owen1IndyGunFreak: so will i have 2 grubs? one for ubuntu and one for debian?05:54
nonewmsgswolf_ all sound is bad or just sound you recorded?05:54
IndyGunFreakowen1: no, it will overwrite the old one05:54
jayde_drag0ntech0007:  right i know sudo chown -hr   what i'm askign do i own the home directory .. or only the sub directory with my name on it05:54
owen1IndyGunFreak: so it will recognize that i have ubuntu. got it.05:55
tech0007jayde_drag0n: subdir with your name on it05:55
wolf_nonewmsgs: all sound, when i get a message in an instant messenger, it sounds really bad, or when i use skype the audio i hear is really bad05:55
IndyGunFreakowen1: it should05:55
jayde_drag0ntech0007: k thanks05:55
nonewmsgswolf_ is it possible the audio jack is only part way in or in the wrong hole?05:55

IndyGunFreakjameslr: if you don't use eyecandy, if setting visual effects to none doesn't fix it, i would just reconfigure and use the vesa driver..06:05
ronin1234so if i don't want to spend half an hour copying and pasting to get codecs stc working is there an option other than automatix?06:05
kholerabbiI tried the 8.04 livecd but got _no network connection_ - it's just a cable that runs straight from an adsl modem/router so there should be no firewall problems and it works in 7.10...... any ideas?06:06

bazhang_Vegombrei, what about alt f206:52
vrkhansFAJALOU: i just install it but line in the gnome network manager there is an con or bars on your tool bar is there any indicator for wcid06:52
thingfishKrai: Applications>Accessories>Terminal.  Then type sudo <command>06:52
FAJALOUbazhang, alt f2 will bring you to an 'open' panel, from there type in gnome-panel06:52
FAJALOUsee if it works06:52
Vegombreibazhang_: doesnt work06:53
jayde_drag0nKrai: if you are running a command that needs to be done with root permissionss just put sudo in front of it... for example instead of apt-get install.... it would be sudo apt-get install... but if you are trying to have terminal as root.. open terminal and type sudo su06:53

FAJALOUtanath, have you tried killing it in tty, and then restarting it from tty also?06:57
tanathFAJALOU, as i said, yes06:58
SyeemInevGlitch: gutsy is the most stable release06:58
SyeemInevGlitch: give the livecd a try 1st06:58
InevGlitchWhich is Gutsy, 7 ?06:58
bazhang_InevGlitch, you need to try the livecd; you could chat about it in #ubuntu-offtopic as this is a support channel06:58

Flynsarm1Hi. i'm trying to install ubuntu on my PC but the partition manager keeps either freezing or crashing. Any ideas?07:30
dr_WillisFlynsarm1,  will ubuntu be the only os on the pc?07:31
mycroftivflynsarm1: id recommend trying the alternate-install cd instead of the live cd07:31
kerberosamenado --> ok thanks07:31
Flynsarm1dr_Willis: Windows is currently installed on one partition. its a 320gig drive. there are also 2 1TB drives07:31
kramfs /msg ubottu etiquette07:32
Flynsarm1mycroftiv: Alternate is the command line version isn't it? i'm too much of a newbie to handle that07:32
dr_WillisFlynsarm1,  you could partition the hd from outside of ubuntu, with a gparted live cd, or similer. Or just leave part of a HD resized with  an 'unallocated' space. and try tellint ubuntu to autmatically use the unallocated space07:32
unavailableflynsarm1 go back into windows and do a defrag, it wont work unless you do a defrag07:33
mycroftivflynsarm1: its not actually 'command line' - it uses a series of menus. it doesnt have a live desktop, but the menus are fairly self-explanatory, its the same process really, just with no desktop running in the background07:33
unavailableflynsarm1 go back into windows and do a defrag, it wont work unless you do a defrag07:33
unavailableflynsarm1 go back into windows and do a defrag, it wont work unless you do a defrag07:33
FlannelFlynsarm1: Its not a command line version, its text based menus.  The questions it asks are identical to the LiveCD one, and the only place you'll notice a difference (except having to use the keyboard instead of a mouse) is partitioning, and even that's not too different07:33
dr_WillisFlynsarm1,  yea like the others say. You must have windows defragged/scandisked. befor trying to let ubuntu resize it.07:33
Vegombreibazhang_: how do i completely uninstall totem ?? like a complete reinstallation with default settings ?07:33
Flynsarm1unavailable: WIndows is on one partition and there aare 220gigs of unallocated space in a seperate partition. Defragging shouldn't be a problem. Windows was also just instaleld a few mins ago so it's fresh07:34
dr_WillisVegombrei,  try making a new user and see if totem works for them properly. if so . YOu just need to delete the totem settings from the OTHER users home/settings.07:34
ronin1234hmm changed pci port on my sata card so now it gets listed unde lspci but still no drives being detected off it07:34
dr_WillisVegombrei,  remove/reinstalling to fix things is a 'windows' sort of thing. :) rarely works under linux. Unless you messed up the system configs.07:35
unavailableflynsarm2 then dont repartition it, use the seperate partition... just format the dang thing and mount it there07:35
Vegombreidr_Willis: now that sounds like a good idea .. how do i just delete the totem settings in this user ?07:35
Vegombreidr_Willis: yeah im a former windows fella .. and believe me thats the only way to fix crap in windows07:36
mycroftivvegombrei: for future reference the command to remove a package and its configuration files is sudo aptitude purge PackageName07:36
mehehoolbazhang_ Create directory to store the drivers and navigate to it. how do i do this07:36

dr_WillisVegombrei,  no idea where totem keeps its settings. I hate totem. :) i perfer gmplayer07:38
mycroftivvegombrei: also note that aptitude's dependency handling can cause really bad things to happen from uninstalling stuff, because it likes to also uninstall the things that 'depend' on the things you are uninstalling...and...07:38
dr_WillisVegombrei, explore the .gnome and .gconf dirs I guess. :)07:38

mycroftivairstikeivanov: have you tried looking at your alsa mixer? theres a GUI program called 'volume control' that lets you look at it, or a terminal program called alsamixer07:53
zcat[1]once you have the nvidia drivers, use the nvidia-settings tool to change res, not the default ubuntu video settings .. it seems to work better07:54
lucianhighest res it let me was 1280 tho07:54

tyler_dairstrikeivanov: simple as that?07:54
EldaIve a question.... the partition tool on the live cd... does it allow me to set a partition as ntfs when I define what they are?  Because Im going to have to make 3 and 2 of the 3 will be ntfs since I will be having one smaller partition for linux, another smaller one for vista, and a third which will make up the rest of the hard drive as a "shared" space07:54

mehehoolhow do i find the dir for the file07:59

Rat409mehehool: try apt-cache search madwifi. see whats there and what you need08:00
mehehoolok apparently i must use a subversion to do this any idea how08:00
mycroftivairstrikeivanov: im sorry, sound debugging can get kind of technical, ive actually been doing a lot of it lately, the kernel module loaded needs to match your card and be configured with the right codec, and also the pulseaudio sound daemon has to feed stuff into the correct alsa pipeline08:00
airstrikeivanovmycroftiv: i'm a simple webhoster, you'll have to walk me through it.08:01
mzendhello, i have recently installed hardy in my laptop hp2410ep and everithing kust works fine except for the wireless on/off switch, is there any way to fix this?08:01

Rat409!subversion | mehehool08:01
ubottumehehool: subversion is an open source application used for revision control. It is sometimes abbreviated to svn in reference to the name of its command line interface. Look here for a Subversion How To on Ubuntu: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Subversion08:01
antoi cant have multiple applications accessing the sound libs08:01
mycroftivairstrikeivanov: id say try some shortcuts first: have you searched the ubuntu web forums for the name of your soundcard, or google searched it + linux?08:01
airstrikeivanovNot really, no. I've got no idea what the exact models are.08:02

jmhealey_erland, ok $2.50, but thats my final offer08:40
erlandjmhealey_ it's just that the data is important to me08:40
Slartfalk_: the alternate install does all the fancy stuff08:40
mjbrooksfalk_, the Live CD doesn't include lvm08:40

jmhealey_erland you can download a knnoppix cd08:43
falk_:-)08:43
erlandjmhealey_ I'm a newbie to most of this - why do I want knoppix?08:43
Slartfalk_: I have to disagree... lvm might be a "must have" for enthusiasts.. but as erland said.. the grandmas out there do not need it.. and I'm guessing you wont have any problems using a text based installer08:43
erlandmjbrooks sadly, yes08:44
jmhealey_cuz it has built in gui tools to mount the drive and set up a fileserver so you can move the data to another box08:44

Slartfalk_: you're kind of missing the point here.. the regular install cd/live is made for ease of use.. I would bet most ubuntu users just use a regular hard drive with one partition, perhaps an extra partition for /home if they asked here before installing.. the live cd isn't designed to meet your demands.. the alternate install cd on the other hand.. will do all these things08:47
erlandRat409: is that because it's command line stuff?08:47
Rat409yes mostly08:47
Anscombe[08:43] <@{Matteo}> php isn't working on the debian server I just installed08:47

icewaterman350 bytes/s is pretty normal10:48
JulousteFlynsarmy: tcpdump , wireshark10:48
icewatermanFlynsarmy: it is <1kb/s and probably simply the ack packets for inbound connections10:49

Flynsarmyicewaterman: Nothing is comin gin though10:49
njeroAHA!!!! I finally found the difference with the adduser thing I keep asking about and no one is answering. In Ubuntu --system users have /bin/null as their shell by default not /bin/bash. So you can't use a shell and thus can't switch to that user (even though you can authenticate)10:50
jzittHi, all. I'm trying to get Hardy running on my Asus Eee 701 after installing it from a USB drive. I need to get WiFi working, but the scripts to do so start out with an apt-get to get build-essentials and other stuff. How do I do this if I don;t have the networking working yet?10:50
pbrunierHad an update yesterday on Hardy. Now my nvidia drivers are broken. Any idea how to fix this?10:50
icewatermanFlynsarmy: hm, that is suspicious indeed. try tcpdump on that interface. it'll tell you what packets are going out10:50
Bogaurdis there a way to have a command executed after dhclient has run?10:50

icewatermanrusss: dpkg -L recordmydesktop10:53
jzittIs there a way that perhaps I could get all that to download to my Windoze box so I could put it on a USB stick to be able to use it from the scripts on my ubuntu box?10:53
icewatermanit will show you a list of files that came with the package10:54
russsthx ice i'll try it right now10:54
pucciono clue for the iwl3945 issue ?10:54
icewatermanrusss: the search applet is also available for the taskbar. you need to add it and klick it10:54
bilbo_pingouinI just upgraded to Ubuntu 8.04 (yes, not really early), so far, most of the things seems to be ok, but SSL/TLS encrypton is not compatible with Pidgin anymore (no MSN, google talk). I tried googling it, but it seems that no such errors was reported. I tried desinstalling pidgin and reinstalling it (using synaptic). Any suggestion?10:54
Flynsarmyicewaterman: tcpdump reports 'no suitable device found' and wireshark doesn't have any interfaces i can select10:55
icewatermanFlynsarmy: that is strange, do  ifconfig10:55
bilbo_pingouin(it worked fine with 7.10)10:55
icewatermanbilbo_pingouin: i use pidgin and it works fine with ssl/tls connections to the server10:55
russsice how can i add that search applet ?10:56
icewatermanright klick the upper desktop-bar and add applet10:56
Flynsarmyicewaterman: what am i looking for?10:56
icewatermanFlynsarmy: it is something like "search for files or so"10:56
bilbo_pingouinicewaterman: ok, it seems I am the only one having that problem... :s10:57
icewatermandunno the exact english word, because i am using a localized version that translates all that stuff10:57
jzittOr is there a way that I can get all the right stuff from a repository? Or have I just made my PC useless?10:57
icewatermanbilbo_pingouin: i even used it on googletalk myself10:57
icewatermanbilbo_pingouin: look out for tools->certificates. maybe you need to add the certificate there (though at least for googletalk, that should not be necessary)10:58
icewatermanbilbo_pingouin: it is only required for self-signed certificates and certificates signed by authorities not recognized by ubuntu10:59

icewatermanjzitt: your problem is that you are using an experimental installation method. most of the people will not know how it is done (including me) as we do not have an eepc and therefore no reason to install ubuntu this way. my guess is, you can put the packages somewhere on the stick (probably in /var/cache/apt/archives/) but as i have no idea how your setup works, cant tell you for sure - so cant everyone else.11:08

DIFH-icerootand i want so share files11:41
linux_masterWhat type of hdd do you use?11:41
DIFH-iceroot2 x 320GB (RAID 1)11:41

linux_masterDo ya know about seagate 10 TB hdd?11:42

blue112How can I broadcast on a webradio on Ubuntu ?11:43
linux_masterHello11:43
blue112is there an equivalent to sam broadcaster :/ ?11:43
elliotjhugBM-Solid: It's probably changing the wrong volume control - try preferences under the top right volume control tool11:43
* PasiC says DIFH-iceroot: do use ntfs ... 'ubi' handles it perfetly11:43

razeeWhat creates OPC error?11:43
razeeSome calibration.11:44
razeeduring cdrecord11:44
razeealso with wodim11:44
DIFH-icerootPasiC: i dont care what ubuntu does, there are other systems on my machine too, so i am using fat32 for trade files between the different systems11:44
elliotjhugBM-Solid: There is a volume control in the top right of your screen - right click it and choose preferences and choose the Master or PCM device11:44
blue112I need an sam broadcaster equivalent, a client, not a server11:44
PasiCDIFH-iceroot, if U use w$ AND Ubuntu ... use ntfs ...11:44
TuniX12razee also some CD marks or bad drive11:44
PasiCwhy force fat?11:44
linux_masterHello, back to topic please.11:45
elliotjhugDIFH-iceroot: What are you actually trying to do for him11:45
DIFH-icerootPasiC: i am using fat32, end of discusion :)11:45
elliotjhugDIFH-iceroot: *trying to do11:45
BM-Solidelliotjhug: cant find it11:45
PasiCOK, do it ;_) DIFH-iceroot11:45
razeeAnd just before that, it gives medium error., sot that would be possible11:45
elliotjhugBM-Solid: You are using Gnome right?11:45

BM-Solidubuntu11:46
razeeI mean a different drive.11:46
ronin1234re-installed 7.10 and everything works out of the box like it should11:46

=== umarzuki is now known as mantoba
razeesorry, different CD11:46
razeeThe drive is new.11:46
elliotjhugBM-Solid: Yeah - there should be a picture in the top right of your screen that looks like a speaker11:46
TuniX12razee: different drive and different CD?11:46
linux_masterSomeone who can tell me the weakness of FAT32 filesystem can claim they MacBook Pro gift.11:46
ronin1234yay for hardy the only edition of ubuntu that i can't love11:46
blue112Can someone help me ?11:47
elliotjhug!ask | blue11211:47
ubottublue112: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)11:47
emanuelezhello11:47
PasiCDIFH-iceroot, one more thing ... handling fat32 most slower than any other filesystems ...11:47
BM-Solidok I found it11:47
blue112Is there an equivalent to sambroadcaster on linux, not a server, but a client, to diffuse on a webradio11:47
andycashow to make it so, that ubuntu wouldnt show my PC name on the network, so that i could not be identified?11:48
MayerEugenactually which ubuntu version is next to lenny ß11:48
TuniX12linux_master: fat32 is universal but archaic11:48
DIFH-icerootPasiC: [] you know the meaning of "discusion is over" :)11:48
BM-Solidelliotjhug: what must I do now?11:48
elliotjhugBM-Solid: Right click on that speaker icon and go to preferences11:48
antoicewaterman, everytime i restart X it modifies my xorg.conf.....11:48
razeeOk... I'm quitting...11:48
BM-Solidthen?11:49
PasiCLOL DIFH-iceroot ... let's talk about something else :)11:49
razeeI think it's a drive error.11:49
linux_masterYou can claim you free gift at http://www.freemacbookpro.com\11:49
icewatermananto: that means your xorg.conf contains an error. see /var/log/Xorg.*.log for details11:49
DIFH-icerootPasiC: ok :)11:49

makkanmy prism54 card (pcmcia) causes kernel panic on high network load, is there any way to throttle the bandwidth of a certain network interface?11:49
werswho knows how to use avidemux? how do I make a movie smaller?11:50
Syeemlinux_master: if ur system is affected with any of such virus most likely ur fat32 drive will die 1st11:50
BM-SolidIts maste11:50
icewatermanwers: you need to know the basics about codecs, coding-settings and encoding. otherwise avidemux will not be of much use to you. but that stuff has nothing to do with ubuntu and is therefore off-topic11:51
elliotjhugBM-Solid: Then that should be working fine then. What actually happens when you use the keys - does anything change at all?11:51
BM-Solidyea11:51
BM-Solidits done11:51

BM-Solidthanks alot dear elliotjhug11:51
icewatermananto: that is just a warning. the file only gets replaced if you have an error (EE)11:52
elliotjhugBM-Solid: np, happy to be of help11:52
xrcwhat else there is to measure bandwidth besides iperf?11:52
linux_masterI suggest everyone to check-out channel #xubuntu11:52
elliotjhugCRASH69: That probably needs a bug report - if you have some experience you might want to try an strace on it - otherwise your best bet is to report it11:52
tnekHi. I'm pretty new to Linux. I have a USB stick. How do I access it using Ubuntu from the command line? Is it auto mounted or do I create a directory in /mnt and mount it?11:52
antoicewaterman, it keeps replacing that line11:52
elliotjhugtnek: Should automount11:53
linux_mastertnek: it auto mounted11:53
PasiCtnek, search for /media/disk (usually) but check mount command output11:53
Syeemtnek: automounted , all u need to access to check where  it is mounted, most comonly /media/disk or disk111:54
tnekah, checking now11:54
CRASH69elliotjhug: bug web?11:54
emanuelezi'm using b43 to use a broadcom 4306 chipset but i can only get 802.11b speeds. any hint?11:54
Syeemtnek: df -h should will giv u human readable format of where it's mounted11:54
tnekhm, I only have cdrom and cdrom0 in /media11:54
elliotjhugCRASH69: You report bugs at launchpad.net - it's fairly intuitive for reporting bugs like that11:55

simonvcHey guys, i have an old laptop i'm using as a server, but after a while it puts it self into sleep mode. Is there anyway to disable apm/acpi completely. i never want this machine to be able to suspend/hibernate11:56
jaggyhey, is it possible to chmod 777 a whole directory, and all his components, chmod 777 * only works for the current dir, but whats in the maps stays locked... :(11:56
elliotjhugsimonvc: I think you can disable support for it in BIOS11:56
tnekAh, df -H didn't do it for me. But sudo fdisk -l did it. :-)11:56
PasiCjaggy, -R switch11:56
chmacWhen I remove a package with syanptic it doesn't remove the dependencies it installed for that package which are no longer needed. Can I get it to do that somehow?11:56

tnekSorry I had a type. I did df -h. It only shows me /dev/sda1 , varrun, varlock, udev, devshm, lrm, ile as filesystems. Sudo fdisk -l gives me the device /dev/sdb1 which is the only FAT32 device (i don't have dual boot). I guess I have to mount it?11:58
linux_masterdon't use green color, OK?11:59
Syeemtnek: yes u need to mount it11:59
zvacetchmac : you have opton complete removal and you should use it if you want to remove all related to package11:59
linux_masterdon't use green color, OK?12:00
elliotjhugSyeem: No guarantees but it looks like it's mostly intel stuff - and that tends to work fairly well out of the box on linux12:00

tj1515yep for a funeral12:02
dr_WillisHmm...12:03
dr_WillisIve seen nero have that feature.. but cant think of any tools under linux that does it.12:03
tj1515i did one before with windows movie maker but i did not like the experience12:03
tnekThanks for all the help so far! :-) I did a mkdir /media/usbstick and then mount /dev/sdb1 /media/usbstick/ which worked nicely. In windows one should always "safe remove" usb sticks so that data in cache may be written to the stick. Does that mean I should unmount it under linux or can I just remove it?12:03
Syeemtj1515: try OpenOffice presentation12:03
Syeemtj1515: make ur presentation then add the music in it12:04
tj1515kinda like a powerpoint presentation12:04
dr_Willisgenerate a slideshow avi, then convert it to dvd.  i guess.12:04

tnekAll right. :-) Good stuff. Unmount I shall. Is there just an fstab entry to make it auto mount when I insert the usb-stick? Or do I have to have some kind of deamon running or something? (again, I'm using the mini.iso so I don't have all the stuff which comes with the normal .*buntu distributions. :-)12:06

addeboyHello! I have a little misunderstanding here... I have 2x500 gb drives, that both of them were formatted in ntfs. I formatted one in ext3 with gparted, and mounted again. Now, in gparted, both of them have size of 465.76 GB, and the one formatted in ext3 have 7.5 GB used. The problem is that when i check in nautilus, there I see 435 GB free space, instead of 465.76 - 7.50 = 458.26 GB free space for the ext3 drive. The stats for the one in ntfs are corre12:15

Jordanthe last ubuntu update somehow broke my desktop. after i log in, i can catch a glimpse and the desktop and the taskbar, then i get thrown back to the log in screen. i suspect the xorg-update is at fault, but i have no idea. something similar happend 2 years ago (at least google says so), and the solution was to downgrade the xorg package. i would try that, but i need the last revision number. i don't really feel like downgrading to a two year old 13:35

babolatI have 2 physical hard drives connected. one seagate, one maxtor. they have the same size, both have linux in them, both similarly partitioned (ie Ubuntu defaults). How do I find out if sda = seagate / maxtor...sdb = seagate / maxtor?14:51

flodini'm setting up an account on a server for running a web server on and figured, i don't really need a password... i just need an ssh key to authenticate when i ssh in. But something weird is happening. Initially, logon works. But when i change from /bin/sh to /bin/zsh on the account in /etc/passwd, suddenly ssh starts asking me for the password instead of using the ssh keys. Any idea why?14:51

amenadojrib basically i want to know what is the list of deb packages that tasksel downloads for lamp or ubuntu-desktop , you know where this list is stashed?14:52
eyes`onlyBlinkiz: no, because that doesnt look like a cue file at all!14:52
jribamenado: no, but the path you gave before needs to have "local/" removed14:52
Chad_LimCore: I've tried everything on alsamixer, do you know any other way?14:52
jacob_linuxLimCore, history to make konversation work: (solved by another user) http://paste.ubuntu.com/20360/14:53
LimCoreChad_: ask #alsa for help (sometimes wait hours for guys that know)14:53
Blinkizeyes`only: So Brasero is using some kind of internal layout for it's 1:1 copy? I can only burn this to a real CD?!14:53
Assidbabolat: fdisk -l14:53
LimCorejacob_linux: cool14:53
Jack_Sparrowbabolat they are unlikely to have the same exact number of cylinders.. sudo fdisk -l   and compare to your drive specs14:53
along_atehbella: normally it related to power management but as u said it no problem with PM14:53
Assidbabolat: will list out your partitions for you.. you can also go to gparted14:53
LimCorejacob_linux: it seems that once you executed your X session or something as root and that caused all the problems14:53
jacob_linuxLimCore, i can't remember why that sudo konversation is there for14:54
Chad_LimCore: Thanks, I think I might wait hours... hopefully not, but I just might14:54
amenadojrib its not there either, no /usr/share/tasksel directory,  am installing via alternatecd right now,  I peeked at /target and /hd-media14:54
jacob_linuxLimCore, can you tell me in a different way =)?14:54
atlefbabolat: also your bios should tell you which is disk 1 and disk 214:54
babolatAssid, Jack_Sparrow I've done fdisk -l and it shows me the list. cylinder numbers are different, but i'd like to identify which is seagate and which is barracuda because i plan to remove the one that i use less14:54
jacob_linuxLimCore, x session?14:54
LimCorejacob_linux: wait14:55
jribamenado: I have the file here...14:55
atlefbabolat: ie. sda and sdb14:55
LimCorejacob_linux: the  sudo konversation   is wrong.14:55
eyes`onlyBlinkiz: checking... all docs say that brasero's default format is .iso14:55
Jack_Sparrowbabolat You should also be able to see in post on boot which one is where in your setup14:55

larryonehatta, did you enable the drivers in system -> administration -> hardware drivers?15:01
eyes`onlyBlinkiz: brasero only saves to .toc if you select 'automatic' for file type. you can override that and select .iso15:01
bullgard4My GParted does not show the mounted partitions of a USB hard disk although Nautilus shows them. Is this normal?15:01
babolatJack_Sparrow, it would be helpful if that particular function was included in Ubuntu right? if some joe didnt have his screwdriver handy, it'd be quite the hassle :)15:01
Jack_Sparrowronin1234 It would depend on your definition of full walk through...  I dont care for software raid15:01
Jack_Sparrowbabolat It could be figured out in less time than you have spent asking us15:01

Jack_Sparrowbabolat You also have not done much to help us in getting you the naswer, like posting the full fdisk  or posting the make and model of your drives15:03
amenadolarryone-> your eth0 is okay, your eth1 has not associated yet.. besides you dont want to have two paths to get to your same router lest you have modified your route table15:03
babolatatlef, i dont think there's a need for that. i could just do as Jack_Sparrow had suggested..15:03

I did 'sudo update-menus' and restarted. The debian menu fails to appear. The permissions for ~/.config (.config/menus/applications.menu) and .local are correct for16:59

gorg_thanks for all kind people of you helping people out19:00
IndyGunFreakgorg_: i think the biggest problem is, ff3 is very buggy, i've generally instructed them to remove ff3, insall ff2 from the repos, and flash works fine19:00

IndyGunFreakgorg_: oddly enough, i have no probs w/ FF3 on my laptop, but it is very shaky on my PC.., so i just use FF2 on my PC.. its not a huge deal..19:01
LimCoreBM-Solid: only for emails, text, etc19:01
Ward1983BM-Solid, by using TOR you potentially allow people to do illegal stuff with your comp19:01

grendal_primemy understanding is that i bound that port on my local machine to the port on the remote machine through ssh. (wich by the way for some reason is much faster than running x remotely19:02
Bl4ckcombzyx386, gedit ?19:02
grendal_primeoops19:02
IndyGunFreakgorg_: i dont think i've experienced that problem19:03
ItekiQUILz: is that a standardised way of coming up with what to dl? just ad lib before and -dev after?19:03
Ward1983LimCore, aha, i thought one should allways do both19:03

Ward1983LimCore, so i dont need services like TOR19:03
LimCoreWard1983: tor is for stoping bad guys from spying on you19:03
Ward1983yeah right lol19:03
BM-Solidno answer?19:04
LimCoreWard1983: you are seriously missinformed about stuff19:04
IndyGunFreakzyx386: if you have the source code for notepad, i don't see why not, but what does notepad do, that gedit or leafpad won't?19:04
dare velko, thx but any way to do it with eg vlc?19:04
randomn00bthe onion router is one hell of a project imho19:04
QUILzIteki: Pretty much. Package names for the dev libs end in -dev as far as I know19:04
Ward1983LimCore, i dont care since im not interested in using such stuff19:04
edwardxpi don't know how to create a dvd movie on here :(19:04
Bl4ckcombWard1983, TOR just generates a random hostname so other users can't see your actual hostname. Nothing more/nothing less19:04
LimCoreWard1983: cool, then do not spread FUD about it19:04
gorg_IndyGunFreak: i've also seen a newspaper review of ubuntu in norways biggest newspaper (www.vg.no) which was very approval to ubuntu, but they also experienced this with rythmbox19:04
zyx386jeffwheeler, thanx i use vim to, bot with notepad++ as webdesigner have more function, for example textFX, Validate conver, ftp.. IndyGunFreak19:04
velkodare, i don't know. don't use vlc. but if you look for a graphical player try smplayer. it's a nice frontend to mplayer19:04
zyx386*but19:04
ItekiQUILz: appreciate it, thanks! i will just keep downloading and installing stuff till it stops throwing complaints at me so19:04
Ward1983LimCore, as i said thats what i read...19:04

IndyGunFreakgorg_: i don't doubt you, i just don't use rhythmbox19:05

hir1Hi Frends.19:05
hir1I need an answer on one question.19:06
LimCoreWard1983: if this articla statted that by using TOR you allow others to do illegal activities from your computer, as you written a moment ago, then it is totall nonsense19:06
Bl4ckcombzyx386, have you used Bluefish before ?19:06
zyx386jeffwheeler, notepad++ is GNU editor and opensource, why isn't for linux available?19:06
velko!ask | hir119:06

zyx386http://notepad-plus.sourceforge.net/uk/site.htm19:07
Ward1983LimCore, yep you told me, i read about it now19:07
IndyGunFreakgorg_: depends on what you use rythmbox for... if you use it as kind of a "full feature" music manager, I like Banshee, or if you have kdelibs installed or don't mind installing them, Amarok is nice.. if you need an Ipod manager, i use gtkpod19:07
amee2khow do i set the command for special keypress request (alt-uparrow) with the new init system?19:07
jeffwheelerzyx386: because nobody has interest in doing so, and because it uses win32 apis such that it would still have to run under wine19:07
Ward1983LimCore, anyway can i look for an answer to my question now? i wont ever take the word TOR in my mouth again19:08

danandY-Town - ah ok... pretty cool. All you need to do then is check the normal runlevel your machine runs in - type "runlevel" in a terminal. For me the output of this command is N 2 - so my default runlevel is 2. Place your script in /etc/init.d and then create a symbolic link in (for instance) /etc/rc2.d pointing to the script in /etc/init.d. ie ln -s /etc/init.d/no-ip.sh /etc/rc2.d21:54

whileimherejoaopinto I know but I want to burn nero files :(22:59
joaopintoryanakca, on rare cases the OS does not allow a process to be killed, it becomes hang22:59
scunizishubbar, "add new printer" and when you get to the spot for the driver/ppd file navigate to one of the ppd files you found.  Make sure the default paper size is appropriate for your area.22:59

reinholdjoaopinto: My problem is that all ubuntu packages install tons of jar files in /usr/share/java, which the java compiler unfortunately does not load automatically.23:03

symeonpI can't find the /etsw/resolv.conf file to edit.Im using the live edition any ideas?23:03

KamariaHey guys. I installed an earlier version of ubuntu...6.10, but now I can't find a source list for it...23:05
shinynewI would guess tehre is, but I have no idea what I would look for to do it23:05
shubbarscunizi: added a 2nd printer with the ppd driver, but still not printing. May be its the port?23:05
natha1in the xorg.conf it just has:23:05
natha1"Section "Device"23:05

scunizishubbar, possible..23:05
joaopintoKamaria, the repositories for 6.10 are no longer available23:06
KamariaAck.23:06
KamariaI take it I should just upgrade.23:06
shinynewsoldats: really? I would image you could route all volume through something before it gets outputed23:06
shinynewsoldats: to make it louder23:06
joaopintoyes, since it is no longer supported23:06
KamariaI had to install an earlier version because the latest wasn't working.23:06
scunizinatha1, in the "Device" section  of xorg there should be a driver listed.23:07
soldatsshinynew: im sure you could add a receiver before the speakers, do you have all the settings in alsamixer turned up, you should have the master, pcm, and the output turned all the way up23:07
shubbarscunizi: "Parallel port busy" ? why? its on usb23:07
scunizishubbar, sounds like it's set for the wrong port..23:08
natha1there is no driver listed and i dont know why there isnt, this is a fresh install23:08
natha1how do you suggest i get the driver installed correctly?23:08
scunizinatha1, sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg  might fix xorg back to the "beginning"23:08

joaopintoerm, not a recovery on the sense, of reinstall. I mean23:13
avisscunizi, how do you access fixboot and fixmbr if you have vista ?23:13
IndyGunFreakscunizi: i said a windows boot disk, not a recovery disk.23:13
scunizinatha1, maybe just add that section... if it's an intel card use "intel" as the driver.23:13

Kamariadkt: and is now empty.23:44
Freetech??????  when i press the unlock button in network-admin nothing happens23:44

Hardolafi'm running Ubuntu in a virtual machine, how would i configure the network to work?23:46
IndyGunFreakWindows98: its ok if you like RPM based distros..23:46
gway9000Kamaria: you will have to image the drive and need a tool like autopsy to recover the files23:46
WolphieMine isn't a flash drive, it's an external hard drive (Freecom Classic HD)23:46
programmercan someone help me with a compiz configuration problem?23:46
joaopintoHardolaf, usually you set it to dchp, assuming vmware is providing a dchp service23:46
Kamariadkt: Yeah I used GParted23:46
dktKamaria: read gway9000's comments23:46
Kamariagway9000: What programs can I use to image the drive?23:46
m-cAnyone have Bluetooth working there?  Do you get a BT icon in the notification area when you insert a BT adapter?  I am having trouble pairing a keyboard device.23:46
joaopintoWolphie, ok, so it is not related to the bug I have seen23:46

Freetech??????  when i press the unlock button in network-admin nothing happens  Can  some one please help ???23:47
IndyGunFreakoh ok23:47
WolphieI managed to mount it on 7.1023:47
gway9000Kamaria: dd does a bit for bit copy23:47
tayfuni would like to know if there some other software from ubuntu like extra effects for desktop what i could install?23:47
tayfunfew more extras23:47
WolphieJust unable to on 8.0423:47
gway9000Kamaria: not sure if partimage does bit for bit23:47
IndyGunFreakWolphie: weird, my external drives mount natively on my systems...23:47
dkttayfun: google compiz and ubuntu23:48
Hardolafjoaopinto vmware offers 4 choices for the network connection, bridged, NAT, host-only, and no network. which one should it be set to.23:48
joaopintoWolphie, have you checked "dmesg" for errors when pluggin the device ?23:48
KamariaSo just grab dd?23:48
KamariaHow do I install that23:48
tayfundkt what should i write in terminal for this function?23:48
jbroomeKamaria: should be installed by default23:48
tayfunsudo-get install google or what23:48
joaopintoHardolaf, ah, you mean the vmware network config, that depends on your requirements, you really need to read about it's specifics23:48
Hardolafi know how it works, but i can't get any but the host-only to work.23:48
WolphieYes I have, i know the errors, but it doesn't give me anything significant as far as i can tell23:49
Hardolafcould it be a problem with the host operating system?23:49
=== root1 is now known as Windows98
KamariaOkay, typing dd into console just did nothing23:49
_ZeuZ_Hey guys, I have a problem with a wireless network interface, it was working in the last boot, now it autodeauthenticates itself with reason 3 according to dmesg, no matter if I turn my networks encription down or not, it will just not keep associated23:49
Windows98whats up????23:49
Kamariaand i's not letting me do anything else23:49
WolphieWhen i mounted it in 7.10, i manually edited fstab and changed the drive speed23:49
Chikubui have a dial modem driver that when i install it complies the driver, the problem is i have 162 updates that need to be applied... if the update fails, sometimes the modem driver is removed, it it won't recompile, can't find the headers i think it complains about.....how can i IDENTIFY which updates would interfere with compiling the modem driver, or not removed the modem driver and download them Manualy????  i wonder why dial up is so hard in ubuntu, the w23:49
dkttayfun: something like sudo apt-get compiz-extras23:49
gway9000Kamaria: yes you will need a 3nd drive equal to the drive in question to put the dd image23:49
joaopintoHardolaf, if it is not properly setup yes, I use vmware both with NAT and Bridged, no problems23:49
=== iSephr is now known as Sephr
Kamariaouch23:50
_ZeuZ_Hey guys, I have a problem with a wireless network interface, it was working in the last boot, now it autodeauthenticates itself with reason 3 according to dmesg, no matter if I turn my networks encription down or not, it will just not keep associated... any idea what can be going wrong?23:50
joaopintoKamaria, partimage is a much better option than dd, dd is a raw tool, not very intelligent for imaging23:50
Hardolafjoaopinto, how would i configure vista to do it properly.23:50
eyeI have a problem, I speak English a little and my laptop compaq presario V6000 sounds very bad, it's a Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 02), an I use Hardy. Can somebody help me?23:50
KamariaOK23:50
kakawhat mean the msg "checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables"23:50
Herlazinesswhat is the command line for gnome file explorer?  thanks23:50
joaopintoHardDisk, ah, you mean the host os, no, it would have to be the guest os23:50
dkt_ZeuZ_: intel 3945abg network card? using iwl driver?23:50
scuniziHerlaziness, nautilus23:50
joaopintokaka, sudo apt-get install build-essential23:50
_ZeuZ_dkt, no, bcm43xx card using b43 module as goods will with kernel 2.6.2423:51
nickrudChikubu the kernel headers are what you want. Every time you update the kernel, you have to recompile your modem driver for that kernel. Run synaptic, and search for linux-image. You want to put the highest numbered version of the kernel and any other matching packages (like headers) on hold23:51
dkt_ZeuZ_: sorry man.. just been fiddling with my laptop wireless cant help you with that one23:51
KamariaHow do I open command console23:51
Kamariaerr23:51
KamariaI mean23:51
Kamariatask manager23:51
FloodBot1Kamaria: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.23:51
scuniziKamaria, top23:52
_ZeuZ_i've asked in ubuntu+1 but no response... this is too much weird23:52
stemount^Kamaria: gnome system monitor does a similar thing to task manager23:52
Hardolafjoaopinto, how would i set up Ubuntu to work properly with a bridged network?23:52
joaopintoKamaria, gnome-system-monitor23:52

ubottuHi! Welcome to #ubuntu!23:52
D3RGPS31Hardware Question - how can i setup my Adesso CyberTablet to be recognized as a tablet, it's recognized as a mouse (no pointer precision)23:52
mariot_while trying to build the latest alsa drivers I get the following error "configure: error: Sufficiently new version of libasound not found.", I installed the package from synaptic, is there a way to install a newer one from synaptic?23:52
joaopintoHardDisk, you need to setup the host to use DCHP, or, you need to setup a static IP from the same subnet of the bridged interface (your real subnet)23:52
proleter44ich brauche -Antivirus Programme23:53
scuniziD3RGPS31, you might want to read some of the threads on wacom.. they should be pretty close. www.ubuntuforums.org23:53
joaopintomariot_, what are you trying to achieve, why are you building alsa ?23:53

ubottuproleter44: Deutschsprachige Hilfe fuer Probleme mit Ubuntu, Kubuntu und Edubuntu finden Sie in den Kanaelen #ubuntu-de, #kubuntu-de, #xubuntu-de und #edubuntu-de23:53
nickrudmariot_ no, the latest is always available by default in the repos. (unless there's some in -proposed, see system->admin->software sources)23:53
ajhtiredwolfHey is there a site listing linux recommended graphics cards? Im planning on buying a new one and want to make sure its linux compatible23:54
D3RGPS31scunizi: thanks23:54
scuniziajhtiredwolf, stick with nvidia..23:54
ajhtiredwolfscunizi, that much i know ;)23:54
nickrudmariot_ I wouldn't mention proposed (there for testing new packages before release) but since you're tying to compile kernel stuff ...23:54
derspanksterRhythmbox won't continue to add tracks from my server. About 1/3 have been added. Now, it's stalled and has added no more. Path is correct.23:54
Hardolafjoaopinto, would NAT be easier to set up then bridged23:54
scuniziajhtiredwolf, agp or pci.. value right now is in the 6000 series (solid) and 7000 series.. (I've no experience with these)23:55
_ZeuZ_Hardolaf, both require you to read about iptables.23:55
joaopintoHardolaf, not really, you just need to setup dchp or a static ip, either way23:55
joaopinto_ZeuZ_, no they do not, not on a vmware guest config context23:55
ajhtiredwolfscunizi, I was either thinking of buying this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130318, or waiting for the new ones coming out this next week23:55
Hardolafi need to set it up in the host or the virtual machine?23:55
_ZeuZ_joaopinto, if you want to do it well setting it's ToS and QoS it to the lowest over the guest, you do.23:56
LuigiOk, when I boot up my computer about 2/3 of the time I get a black screen instead of the login screen. Last time I tried to login I came back to find an error message (and no desktop) telling me that the session had lasted less than 10 seconds and that there were a variety of errors encountered in display. I noticed two directly from compiz, one saying it couldn't find default0 or something. At the end it said that it had disconnecte23:56
Luigid from the bus or something and to press OK to reboot. When I rebooted, it didn't even get to the loading screen. So I rebooted again and went in with kernel 2.6.24-16 instead of 2.6.24-18, and managed to login. So, what should I do now?23:56
joaopintoHardolaf, you need to setup on vmware and at the guest level, at the guest level you only need a regular network config23:56
_ZeuZ_joaopinto, seems like you never managed a cluster of virtual machines...23:56
scuniziajhtiredwolf, sli is a different story.. check out some of the threads on that one on the forums.23:56
Baron1984can you do a BIOS flash in Wine?23:57
joaopinto_ZeuZ_, we are talikng of a simple config for someone which is unable to do a regular network config to the vm, why do you need to complicate ?23:57
IndyGunFreakBaron1984: im not sure i'd wan tto chance that.23:57
_ZeuZ_joaopinto, good point, but when you're going to do things, you gotta do them right.23:57
joaopinto_ZeuZ_, I did not, because I never had the need23:57
ajhtiredwolfscunizi, no plans for sli23:57
joaopinto_ZeuZ_, what is wrong or right, depends on your objectives, which on this case, is not a cluster23:57
_ZeuZ_gonna compile again the clear unpatched module for b4323:57
ajhtiredwolfscunizi, just planning on getting one of the 8800gt's or waiting for the new cards coming out next week, think its dangerous to get a brand new card?23:58
mariot_when I send a message how do I designate a person I'm trying to draw attention from?23:58
Chikubunickrud, can i dl the headers manualy?  cause when the dial up driver dies i have to boot into XP to dl23:58
scuniziajhtiredwolf, should be good in hardy.. I remember taht the 8800's had issues in gutsy.23:58
_ZeuZ_joaopinto, want the guest to have preferences over your bandwidth as VMware sets it? Fine, not my case. Suffer your configs wrath.23:58
onderhi23:58
ajhtiredwolfscunizi, hard is 8.04 right?23:58
marculesGood Night :)23:58
scuniziajhtiredwolf, yep..23:58
ajhtiredwolfscunizi, k good thats what im using23:59
Hardolafjoaopinto, how do i set up the network in ubuntu23:59
