| StAfZe6 | hello | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| idhtns | is the firefox update i got from the repos today the actual release? | 00:00 |
| visik7 | dmsuperman: I've not neither removed pulse just disabled and purged out libflashsupport | 00:00 |
| mindframe | anyone have an idea why fdisk and cfdisk don't want to create anything larger than a 2.5TB disk on a disk that shows up at 3.5 TB? | 00:00 |
| rename | yeah well I saw that. I have 4 different kernel versions though. | 00:00 |
| rename | you know when you have GRUB installed? I have 4 versions | 00:00 |
| rampageoberon | rename: ok and? | 00:00 |
| Fogel1497 | @idhtns short answer, if you installed firefox 3 from the repos then yes thats the final release | 00:00 |
| thingfish | rename: synaptic is the easiest way. Search for linux-image, remove the ones you don't want. Leave the next most recent one alone, though, so you have a back up. | 00:00 |
| rename | yeah. | 00:00 |
| Jack_Sparrow | arooni microsoft natural.. | 00:00 |
| dmsuperman | visik7, disabling didn't change anything, neither did removing. I've since given up, and don't really care to bother with it. There's no point in upgrading to gutsy...nothing is different besides pulse and crappy flash support | 00:00 |
| rename | so like the .18 and .19 the .17 and .16 | 00:01 |
| thingfish | rename: you should be able to tell which are newer by the version numbers. | 00:01 |
| thingfish | yes | 00:01 |
| rename | I want to get rid of. | 00:01 |
| thingfish | yes | 00:01 |
| rename | ok great thanks. | 00:01 |
| thingfish | rename: but leave the next to the most recent so you have a spare. | 00:01 |
| rename | sorry. I didnt think that my name was rename. | 00:01 |
| thingfish | np | 00:01 |
| Fogel1497 | When I go to System > Adminastration > Login Window the window briefly opens up then immediately exits. I need to change a setting in here in order to get my power button to reappear but cannot because of this problem. I have already tried a hard restart, but it did not achieve anything. | 00:02 |
| billenium | Hey, sorry i got disconnected... Like i said i dont have any Task Bars at the top and bottom... how do i get it back? | 00:02 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !resetpanels | 00:02 |
| Malaz | I need to fix my sound. Help me? | 00:02 |
| ubottu | To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 00:02 |
| rampageoberon | billenium: run gnome-panel | 00:02 |
| arooni | Jack_Sparrow, still doesnt work; i tried that layout i got an error: http://pastie.org/216904 | 00:02 |
| visik7 | dmsuperman: you are wrong there are many many improvement in 8.04 (but maybe nothing that you need and it's ok) | 00:02 |
| billenium | Hey... That didnt work | 00:02 |
| billenium | gnome panel is already running | 00:02 |
| rampageoberon | billenium: do what Jack_Sparrow suggested | 00:03 |
| Az | glitsj16 & evil... thanks for your input... ive given up on this one... clean install | 00:03 |
| weldan | to reset the panel to completely default, type this in a terminal: « sudo mv /* /dev/null » | 00:03 |
| billenium | I think i left when he suggested it | 00:03 |
| billenium | what did Jac_Sparrow suggest? | 00:03 |
| dmsuperman | visik7, well obviously there are changes...i just meant out of what I used on a daily or even weekly basis. The only thing I noticed was a moved around menu, the unlock after you open admin panels (which is retarded anyway), pulseaudio, crappy flash support, wubi, and the next version of compiz | 00:03 |
| rdz | hey ho. how likely is it that a new kernel will be in the repos? i just upgraded and a new one was installed, which means i have to recompile some manually compiled modules. does that happen often? on dapper i could live quite some time with the same kernel | 00:03 |
| glitsj16 | Az: goodluck | 00:03 |
| JinLing | !offtopic | 00:03 |
| ubottu | #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 00:03 |
| Malaz | The sound in my Ubuntu 8.04 install stopped working. Can someone help me? | 00:03 |
| dan_H | running Ubuntu Hardy, don't have direct rendering, however graphics card supports it (82G33/G31 Express Integrated Graphics Controller)?? | 00:04 |
| Az | any idea on why these packages uninstalled though...its got me bemused | 00:04 |
| billenium | Jack_Sparrow what did you suggest? | 00:04 |
| Mo853425ru37 | hey guys | 00:04 |
| rampageoberon | weldan: what is that you are suggesting | 00:04 |
| rename | OK got them going. Thanks alot thingfish | 00:04 |
| Fogel1497 | Whenever I run sudo gdmsetup from the terminal the window automatically quits as soon as it opens | 00:04 |
| Mo853425ru37 | Im having probs with hardy | 00:04 |
| Malaz | I guess I'll try google more. | 00:04 |
| visik7 | dmsuperman: ff3 oo2.4 with GL effects, and flash is bad as ever | 00:04 |
| Malaz | The sound in my Ubuntu 8.04 install stopped working. Can someone help me? | 00:04 |
| visik7 | dmsuperman: not worse or better | 00:04 |
| Jack_Sparrow | arooni no idea why you are getting an error.. it has worked without issue since I plugged it in.. more than I can say for using it on windows | 00:04 |
| Mo853425ru37 | anyonme gonna help me | 00:04 |
| Az | literally only made minor alterations to xorg, then relogin - no panels and half of applets gone | 00:05 |
| rampageoberon | i wouldn't do what weldan said billenium | 00:05 |
| rdz | Mo853425ru37, ask your question | 00:05 |
| Mo853425ru37 | Ok | 00:05 |
| Mo853425ru37 | I have probs in hardy | 00:05 |
| rampageoberon | !resetpanels | billenium | 00:05 |
| ubottu | billenium: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 00:05 |
| visik7 | Malaz: aven after setting everything to alsa in that panel ? | 00:05 |
| rdz | Mo853425ru37, someone will answer, if he/she knows an answer | 00:05 |
| Mo853425ru37 | like when i multi task stuff | 00:05 |
| alecwh | Firefox 3 has reached the repositories and finished mirroring (I think... I just updated), can a moderator modify the topic? | 00:05 |
| dan_H | any word on enabling direct rendering on 82G33/G31 Express Integrated Graphics Controller under Hardy? | 00:05 |
| dmsuperman | visik7, I've never had any issues with flash in 7.10, before or after trying hardy. As far as FF3, I've already had that installed for a while now (and am currently about to install final) and I don't much care for OO.o | 00:05 |
| Jack_Sparrow | billenium change the default or move windows to the top option.. lock down updates so they dont happen when you are not there. not that kernels come out all that often anyhow | 00:05 |
| Malaz | The sound in my Ubuntu 8.04 install stopped working. Also, sound output from music players like banshee or rhythmbox never worked, although the login sound and movie sound would work. Can someone help me? | 00:06 |
| rampageoberon | Mo853425ru37: ask your full question in 1 line | 00:06 |
| Mo853425ru37 | like virtualbox and firefox and k3b or any other time when im running flash Hardy would crash | 00:06 |
| Malaz | visik: Yeah, it still doesn't work. | 00:06 |
| Mo853425ru37 | and i cant do anything | 00:06 |
| rename | hi | 00:06 |
| visik7 | dmsuperman: deskbar applet is better and also trackerd | 00:06 |
| visik7 | dmsuperman: :) | 00:06 |
| billenium | Can someone tell me that command again to kill it and turn it on again? | 00:06 |
| aquarius | Does Ubuntu process the .Xdefaults file for a user when they log in? | 00:06 |
| billenium | I forgot to copy it | 00:06 |
| Fogel1497 | Mo853425ru37 have you tried Opera? | 00:06 |
| visik7 | Malaz: what app are you testing ? | 00:06 |
| Mo853425ru37 | No | 00:06 |
| rampageoberon | !resetpanels | billenium | 00:06 |
| ubottu | billenium: To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 00:06 |
| dmsuperman | visik7, I like google desktop for that :P | 00:06 |
| Mo853425ru37 | Im more of a firefox guy | 00:06 |
| Malaz | visik: The strangest thing is that I changed NOTHING. Sometimes the sound works again after I CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE, but not today. | 00:06 |
| visik7 | dmsuperman: not integrated | 00:07 |
| Fogel1497 | I was too, i had problems with flash and found it worked much better in firefox. | 00:07 |
| Fogel1497 | *much better in opera i meant | 00:07 |
| Malaz | visik: The login sound, the sound pref test sounds, and about to test a movie. | 00:07 |
| Mo853425ru37 | With me i run for example virtualbox k3b and firefox my comp crashes | 00:07 |
| billenium | !resetpanels | 00:07 |
| ubottu | To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 00:07 |
| pinnerup | After having problems with my GFX card and installing Envy and messing back and forth, now my Ubuntu won't run any resolution above 800*600. It's driving me crazy. | 00:07 |
| === Pooky is now known as pooky | ||
| Mo853425ru37 | when i run alot of stuff | 00:07 |
| === pooky is now known as Pooky | ||
| dmsuperman | visik7, I'm running ubuntu on a machine built for gaming in windows...i have to do something with all my extra power :P | 00:07 |
| Mo853425ru37 | and before it never did | 00:07 |
| Fogel1497 | Firefox2 or firefox 3? | 00:07 |
| Mo853425ru37 | firefox 2 and 3 | 00:07 |
| rampageoberon | Mo853425ru37: probably out of ram | 00:07 |
| Mo853425ru37 | firefox 3 doesnt start anymore so i use 2 | 00:07 |
| visik7 | dmsuperman: yes you do :) | 00:07 |
| yiga1 | hello I just got a laptop from a friend of mine who thought it was broken didn't want to worry about it. I installed Ubuntu 7.04 and would like to upgrade to 8.04 is there a good howto somewhere and/or precautions? | 00:07 |
| Malaz | visik: OK, movies work. But login sound, sound pref test sounds, and games still do not work. | 00:07 |
| Mo853425ru37 | i have 2.25gb of ram | 00:07 |
| Fogel1497 | Being out of ram shouldnt cause a crash, it should just cause it to run slow anyways | 00:08 |
| dmsuperman | haha | 00:08 |
| Mo853425ru37 | It crashes | 00:08 |
| Mo853425ru37 | I cant do anything | 00:08 |
| locohost | being out of ram can for sure cause a crash | 00:08 |
| Mo853425ru37 | cant move the mouse | 00:08 |
| visik7 | Mo853425ru37: mixing ff2 and ff3 is not a good practice 'cuse they share .mozilla in your home | 00:08 |
| Mo853425ru37 | or anything | 00:08 |
| FloodBot1 | Mo853425ru37: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 00:08 |
| Mo853425ru37 | huh | 00:08 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !enter > Mo853425ru37 | 00:08 |
| locohost | well, it will start killing random processes to free up ram | 00:08 |
| thomashartman1 | Am I running out of ram? http://paste.ubuntu.com/20999/ | 00:08 |
| thomashartman1 | My system is kind of slow. | 00:08 |
| rampageoberon | thomashartman1: check your ram usage by running "free -m" | 00:08 |
| Mo853425ru37 | its werid | 00:09 |
| visik7 | thomashartman1: so seems | 00:09 |
| rampageoberon | thomashartman1: less ram is one reason for a slow system but there are others | 00:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | thomashartman1 turn off effects | 00:09 |
| Malaz | visik: Any ideas? This sort of thing also happened on my last Ubuntu 8.04 install, before I tried fedora and mandriva. So it's not the cause of me messing something up. Must be the hardware/software, not the user. | 00:09 |
| thomashartman1 | total 486, used 479. this is bad right? | 00:09 |
| drunkn718 | what the proper term for when you want to use serveral ethernet ports to increase LAN bandwidth, i.e. I have 2+ gigabit ethernet cards so I want to have it a LAN-effective 2gbps. | 00:09 |
| locohost | you have some swap free still, but, yeah, your running out of ram | 00:09 |
| visik7 | thomashartman1: no | 00:10 |
| visik7 | thomashartman1: it depends paste the full output | 00:10 |
| glitsj16 | yiga1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades .. what the precautions concerns, well, having a backup of your data is always a good thing, if you haven't changed exotic configurations manually it should be a smooth upgrade | 00:10 |
| locohost | as long as you still have free swap, should just slow things down | 00:10 |
| Mo853425ru37 | Like i have 2.25gb and i would run this stuff b4 when i had split my hd with windows and it would never crash only windows would but then when i delte windows and rezied it to max in partition editor this prob started to happen | 00:10 |
| thomashartman1 | I did. | 00:10 |
| visik7 | thomashartman1: (on pastebin) | 00:10 |
| thomashartman1 | I did :) | 00:10 |
| Malaz | visik: I have a dedicated sound card, do I need to get a driver or kernel modules for it? | 00:10 |
| locohost | use top to see whats taking up all the ram | 00:10 |
| rampageoberon | thomashartman1: what does it say for +- buffers/cache | 00:10 |
| thomashartman1 | http://paste.ubuntu.com/21002/ | 00:10 |
| joaopinto | drunkn718, network teaming | 00:10 |
| chamuscas | envy problems don't know what to do | 00:10 |
| Mo853425ru37 | brb guys | 00:10 |
| chamuscas | can somebody help me please | 00:10 |
| Mo853425ru37 | i have to go somewhere | 00:10 |
| Odd-rationale | !envy | chamuscas | 00:10 |
| ubottu | chamuscas: envyng is an updated version of the *UNSUPPORTED* envy package. It is now part of the ubuntu universe repository (envyng-gtk OR envyng-qt) and has community support. As an early version, its results may vary but this should be used over the unsupported envy package. | 00:10 |
| thomashartman1 | rampageoberon: 373 113 | 00:10 |
| drunkn718 | thanks, now I can go find some tutorials | 00:10 |
| rampageoberon | thomashartman1: as by default ubuntu uses all your ram for cache to make full use of resources | 00:11 |
| chamuscas | Odd-rationale, what or where do i type that | 00:11 |
| rampageoberon | thomashartman1: so you have 113mb ram free and 373 used | 00:11 |
| visik7 | thomashartman1: you really have a lot of used swap | 00:11 |
| thomashartman1 | visik7: is that a bad thing? | 00:11 |
| locohost | rapp, thats true, but it wont eat into swap | 00:11 |
| billenium | okay that command did not work... | 00:11 |
| visik7 | thomashartman1: depends on what you are running | 00:11 |
| locohost | and i think thats linux in general that does that, not just ubuntu | 00:11 |
| Odd-rationale | chamuscas: look for the envyng-gtk package in synaptics | 00:11 |
| thomashartman1 | I am getting slow windows minimize/maximize, that kind of thing. | 00:11 |
| rampageoberon | thomashartman1: not a bad thing, just swap is slower than ram | 00:11 |
| billenium | I think i can see the edges of the Panels... and when i kill the process the edges go away | 00:11 |
| visik7 | thomashartman1: open a shell | 00:11 |
| thomashartman1 | open. | 00:12 |
| visik7 | thomashartman1: run : top | 00:12 |
| chamuscas | Odd-rationale, tank you a lot mister | 00:12 |
| thomashartman1 | top output is pastied. | 00:12 |
| rampageoberon | thomashartman1: turn off desktop effects to make it faster | 00:12 |
| visik7 | thomashartman1: and press F and then q | 00:12 |
| Malaz | visik: Can you help me, or should I try google again (or just use fedora 9 instead)? | 00:12 |
| chamuscas | Odd-rationale, or mam | 00:12 |
| D3RGPS31 | Is there a log of ubuntu's startup? (after you start from the boot menu, to when you can login) | 00:12 |
| Fogel1497 | Whenever i run 'sudo gdmsetup' from the terminal to change the login window settings i get a 'Segmentation error' and the window closes | 00:12 |
| visik7 | Malaz: you have not replied to my question | 00:12 |
| locohost | top, see whats using all the ram, if you can restart that process...see if your mem usage goes down, maybe there is a leak or something. ..or your just doing a lot | 00:12 |
| rampageoberon | thomashartman1: but i wouldn't worry too much about that | 00:12 |
| rdz | what is the simplest way of getting rid of all unused kernels? | 00:12 |
| visik7 | thomashartman1: who is the first ? | 00:12 |
| Odd-rationale | chamuscas: to be honest, i don't know a whole lot about envy. it used to be unsupported here... | 00:12 |
| Jack_Sparrow | thomashartman1 turn off effects especially if you have an onboard sound card | 00:12 |
| Malaz | visik: The app-testing question? Yes, I did. Maybe you missed it. | 00:13 |
| Felonious | wow I cant believe linux actually works with my keyboard media player keys | 00:13 |
| thomashartman1 | don't understand effects. | 00:13 |
| joaopinto | rdz, remove them manually :P | 00:13 |
| Felonious | aka forward, back, pause | 00:13 |
| Felonious | amazing | 00:13 |
| rampageoberon | rdz: use synaptic to remove older versions of linux-image | 00:13 |
| thomashartman1 | what are they? how do I turn off? is this compiz? | 00:13 |
| Odd-rationale | Felonious: you should stop being surprised.... ;) | 00:13 |
| rdz | rampageoberon, i'll try .. thanks | 00:13 |
| Zelda1 | How do I get rid of them in the GRUB menu? | 00:13 |
| rampageoberon | rdz: keep atleast one older version incase you need to roll back | 00:13 |
| chamuscas | Odd-rationale, i didn't understand the unsupporterd part, what does that mean | 00:13 |
| Jack_Sparrow | thomashartman1 system... preferences... appearance... last tab on the right.. | 00:13 |
| flaran_ | hi.. earlier I stupidly installed nvidia-glx (when i'm using nvidia-glx-new) and made some links between openGL SO files. i removed the links but now my drivers won't work anymore | 00:13 |
| Malaz | (04:07:22 PM) Malaz: visik: The login sound, the sound pref test sounds, and about to test a movie. | 00:13 |
| Felonious | im suprised because I couldnt get my ATI drivers to install no matter what I did | 00:13 |
| rdz | rampageoberon, ok.. thanks for the hint | 00:13 |
| Malaz | (04:07:58 PM) Malaz: visik: OK, movies work. But login sound, sound pref test sounds, and games still do not work. | 00:13 |
| flaran_ | any ideas what I should do to fix them? | 00:13 |
| Jack_Sparrow | thomashartman1 yes.. effects are compiz | 00:13 |
| Felonious | so... this is unexpected | 00:14 |
| thomashartman1 | yeah I don't need that. | 00:14 |
| thomashartman1 | :) | 00:14 |
| joaopinto | !sound | Malaz | 00:14 |
| ubottu | Malaz: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 00:14 |
| Odd-rationale | chamuscas: basically, use evny at your own risk! | 00:14 |
| pen | chamuscas: you can use envyng | 00:14 |
| orphean | Zelda1: if you uninstall them they will be removed from the grub menu. if you want them installed for some reason but not in the grub menu, edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and remove their entries | 00:14 |
| chamuscas | Odd-rationale, looooool so what are the options :p | 00:14 |
| visik7 | Malaz: depending on the game they may relay on old or unsupported audio implementations such as oss | 00:14 |
| chamuscas | pen, where can i get that one, or what should i do ? | 00:14 |
| Zelda1 | well it didnt remove them from teh grub menu | 00:14 |
| pwolfe | why is it that xorg.conf gets rewritten every time I boot after I install the nvidia driver (from their) wesite? it works perfectly until i reboot | 00:14 |
| yiga1 | glitsj16: it's a "brand new" computer - a virus ate up my friends hd and I just installed Ubuntu on top of it. I found this, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes so easy. | 00:15 |
| visik7 | thomashartman1: so the first in the list was ? | 00:15 |
| pwolfe | I can find nothing helpful on the forums | 00:15 |
| Odd-rationale | chamuscas: it is usually safer to use the drivers from the restricted drivers manager. | 00:15 |
| thomashartman1 | vikk7: you mean when I did F then q? | 00:15 |
| Zelda1 | ok got it thanks | 00:15 |

| Malaz | visik: As I said, nothing works _except_ video. Including Ubuntu sound effects like login, as well as music players. | 00:15 |
| pen | chamuscas: I saw he told you to use envy | 00:15 |
| thomashartman1 | that looked like some kind of help readout... | 00:15 |
| shazzam | hello... me again... so I didnt have time before but now I want to install ubuntu on an external hard drive but i dont know how to partition | 00:15 |

| glitsj16 | yiga1: enjoy the new system :) | 00:15 |

| Paddy_EIRE | pwolfe, 1 moment.. and try using tab completion so we can see who you are talking to.. makes following the conversation much easier | 00:16 |
| chamuscas | pen, that's the problem before i erase my disk i had install envy from the site of the italian guy, now i can't find where is the download link | 00:16 |
| yiga1 | glitsj16: thank you | 00:16 |

| drunkn718 | so from what i've been reading on tutorials online, networking bonding does round-robin load balancing across the NICs, doesn't this mean it is **not** providing increased bandwidth? | 00:16 |
| visik7 | thomashartman1: ... | 00:17 |
| pen | chamuscas: so you want to use envy | 00:17 |
| chamuscas | orphean, sry didn't understood | 00:17 |
| Paddy_EIRE | pwolfe, also could you provide me with your gfx card make and model | 00:17 |
| pen | chamuscas: ok, then it's really easy | 00:17 |
| shazzam | hwo much do i partition for ubuntu and i dont want to lose anything else on the hard drive.. | 00:17 |
| pen | chamuscas: ubuntu has the envy in the repository | 00:17 |
| Az | 10gb i use | 00:17 |
| pwolfe | its a bfg 8800gt oc | 00:17 |
| pen | chamuscas: go to synaptics and search for envy | 00:17 |
| chamuscas | pen, well basically yes i don't know another way of solving the problem | 00:17 |
| Paddy_EIRE | !envy | pwolfe | 00:17 |
| ubottu | pwolfe: envyng is an updated version of the *UNSUPPORTED* envy package. It is now part of the ubuntu universe repository (envyng-gtk OR envyng-qt) and has community support. As an early version, its results may vary but this should be used over the unsupported envy package. | 00:17 |
| shazzam | so when i start the live cd up and it opens the partition thing what do i type or press? | 00:17 |
| chamuscas | pen, and which files should i check? | 00:17 |
| pwolfe | so will envy provide me with the most up to date version? | 00:18 |
| Paddy_EIRE | yes | 00:18 |
| orphean | drunkn718: well yes and no. By loadbalancing helps by ensuring that a particular nic isn't being overloaded and dropping packets. but it doesn't use them both at once as some kind of supernic | 00:18 |
| visik7 | pwolfe: mostly | 00:18 |
| pen | envyngclick | 00:18 |
| pwolfe | ok thanks i guess I'll just give up and use that | 00:18 |
| pen | chamuscas: envyng | 00:18 |
| visik7 | pwolfe: not the beta ones | 00:18 |
| Paddy_EIRE | pwolfe, most up to date stable version afaik | 00:18 |
| Malaz | visik: I got nothing on that. But top of the troubleshooting page has the command ""find /lib/modules/`uname -r` | grep snd"" to run. It has a solution if it returns nothing, which it does. So I'm rebotting now to see if it worked. | 00:18 |
| thomashartman1 | visik7: I'm hearing you, just don't understand. when i top, F, then q, I got a list of fields. should I have chosen one of them? | 00:18 |
| chamuscas | there's no envyng there pen | 00:18 |
| Malaz | visik: Thanks, I'll tell you if it works. | 00:18 |
| pwolfe | ok, thanks guys | 00:18 |
| visik7 | thomashartman1: than press Enter | 00:18 |

| visik7 | __ryan__: a kernel module is not a kernel | 00:24 |
| Arv3n | is there a mac channel? | 00:24 |
| glitsj16 | Fogel1497: do you have any of those mentioned in the error message installed ? if so, it's conflicting with gdm and it asks to remove those | 00:25 |

| Malaz | visik: I tried both pythmbox and banshee. Both think they are playing it, but no sound comes out of speakers. | 00:26 |
| __ryan__ | rhythmbox will tell you if you need codecs or not so that's probably a good idea to try :P | 00:26 |
| glitsj16 | Fogel1497: are you using regular ubuntu ? or kubuntu perhaps ? | 00:26 |

| visik7 | Malaz: try this from the command line | 00:27 |
| jameslr | Hello all | 00:27 |
| chamuscas | hello | 00:27 |
| neeto | is there a way to force a check for hardware changes? (USB drives etc...) | 00:27 |
| visik7 | gst-launch-0.10 playbin uri=file:///path/to/an/mp3 | 00:27 |
| glitsj16 | Fogel1497: checked in synaptics if one of those others is installed ? gdm seems to think so, might be worth a look | 00:27 |
| visik7 | neeto: most of the hardware is autoconfigured a part from the video card | 00:27 |
| visik7 | Malaz: result ? | 00:28 |
| Jack_Sparrow | neeto try sudo /etc/init.d/hal start to try and get a usb drive recognized.. | 00:28 |
| neeto | visik7: I am trying to mount a new eSATA device, but it's not showing up at all | 00:28 |
| visik7 | neeto: mmm | 00:28 |
| visik7 | neeto: check the chipset against google if it's supported by the 2.6.24 kerne | 00:28 |
| Jack_Sparrow | neeto try sudo /etc/init.d/hal restart to try and get a usb drive recognized.. | 00:28 |
| visik7 | neeto: or maybe you already do that | 00:28 |
| i00nsu | ok .. Jack_Sparrow is done thz | 00:29 |
| jameslr | neeto: does dmesg output anything when you connect it? | 00:29 |
| Jack_Sparrow | i00nsu great | 00:29 |
| genii | neeto: eSATA recognises as fixed disk so it doesn't scan all the time. Do as Jack_Sparrow suggests to force rescan | 00:29 |
| Malaz | visik: I'll paste the output to pastebin. No sound output. It took forever because of all the stupid spaces and brackets I had to escape.... | 00:29 |
| eitreach | can anyone name a solution for messed up colours in videos in 8.04? | 00:29 |
| neeto | visik7: I don't see why there would be a chipset support problem | 00:29 |
| eitreach | both vlc and totem. | 00:29 |
| visik7 | neeto: it's always around the corner :) | 00:30 |
| i00nsu | now .. i have this litle problem.. no youtube sounds, no flv sound, no mplayer sound no alsa test sound. what should I do ? | 00:30 |
| visik7 | Malaz: you should learn the power of tab | 00:30 |
| Malaz | visik: http://paste.ubuntu.com/21008/ | 00:30 |
| Malaz | visik: Does that auto-escape symbols? | 00:30 |
| i00nsu | if I use rytmic box i have sound.. but none with other players | 00:30 |
| neeto | jameslr: dmesg doesn't seem to say anything too obvious about it. I can't find anywhere that it mentions the drive... | 00:30 |
| visik7 | Malaz: mostly | 00:30 |
| ASULutzy | i00nsu: You'll probably need to edit those other programs' preferences | 00:31 |
| visik7 | Malaz: in this case yes | 00:31 |
| Malaz | visik: Tab is like gnome-do. I always mean to use it, but I always just do it the old slow way out of habit. | 00:31 |
| jameslr | neeto: what sata controller are you using? | 00:31 |
| neeto | jameslr: the one on my mobo | 00:31 |
| visik7 | Malaz: ok gstreamer says that it's playing | 00:31 |
| jameslr | neeto: it has a chipset. Do you know what the name of it is? | 00:31 |
| Malaz | visik: Yes. But again, no sound. | 00:31 |
| visik7 | Malaz: now you should check your mixer volumes | 00:31 |
| Malaz | visik: Done. | 00:32 |
| aurri | hola | 00:32 |
| visik7 | Malaz: I know you hate me in this moment :) | 00:32 |
| glitsj16 | eitrach: what video output settings do you have active at the moment ? | 00:32 |
| jameslr | neeto: or perhaps do you know the brand and model of your motherboard? | 00:32 |
| neeto | jameslr: the chipset for this mobo is an intel 975p I believe, but it shouldn't be a problem since my boot drive is already connected to the same sata controller... | 00:32 |
| aurri | alguien habla en español | 00:32 |
| eitreach | glitsj16: how do I find that out? | 00:32 |
| Malaz | visik: Yep. I've done that before, about 2 years ago. Very embarrassing. But they're all good right now. | 00:32 |
| i00nsu | <ASULutzy> ? I mean: >> no sound in alsa test | 00:32 |
| Zeroyez | Hi, I just installed the newest updates and they really really screwed up my ubuntu installation | 00:33 |

| n00dle | Anyone solve the kernel-update-then-vboxdrv-cant-run issue? I'd look up the bug, but launchpad's down TO BE UPGRADED! | 00:33 |
| glitsj16 | eitrach: in vlc you can find those under preferences, totem is gstreamer based, via "gstreamer-properties" | 00:33 |
| * n00dle growls very loudly. | 00:33 | |
| visik7 | Malaz: maybe some integrated old sis ? | 00:33 |

| Zeroyez | Everything I run as root closes after 0.2 seconds of being open | 00:33 |
| aurri | ok | 00:33 |
| aurri | gracias | 00:33 |
| Vonunov | :) | 00:33 |
| visik7 | Zeroyez: it's for security reason | 00:33 |
| Malaz | visik: Came with the motherboard. I have 2 of them. Maybe I should just use my good sound card in my old hulk. 1 sec, I'll check. | 00:34 |
| Zeroyez | So how can I turn off this, because I really want to gksudo nautilus right now :[ | 00:34 |
| eitreach | glitsj16: it was strange, because after restarting X, and playing a video for around 15 seconds, it only became bad after that. | 00:34 |
| visik7 | Zeroyez: just kiddiing :D | 00:34 |
| Malaz | visik: I put it near the bottom, so I can't read it without turning th comp off and taking it out. Could I just replace it with a diff sound card w/o telling linux? | 00:35 |
| === Tekerson_ is now known as Tekerson | ||
| visik7 | Malaz: an lspci is ok | 00:35 |
| Malaz | visik: Because if I'm going to take it out, I may as well just replace it. | 00:35 |
| n00dle | Anyone using VirtualBox here solve the update problem? | 00:35 |
| Malaz | visik: Hah, forgot about that. I did that 5 min ago... | 00:35 |
| visik7 | :) | 00:35 |
| glitsj16 | eitrach: i see, try changing the output modules to see if it is a systematic effect, hard to track without much info i suppose | 00:35 |
| Zeroyez | I guess I'll try the forums then... | 00:36 |
| shazzam | i want to install ubuntu but i need help with manual partitioning!! | 00:36 |
| visik7 | Zeroyez: try to run it from the console with sudo command and print on a pastebin the output | 00:36 |
| shazzam | please help | 00:36 |
| jameslr | shazzam: ok what is your trouble with it? | 00:36 |
| Malaz | visik: Hmm, apparently I have 2. One must be integrated, or something... | 00:36 |
| __ryan__ | if you need help with manual partitioning you should prob be using wubi or something | 00:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | __ryan__ THat isnt a better choice | 00:37 |
| Az | noodle - have you tried enabling pae/nx | 00:37 |
| Malaz | visik: http://paste.ubuntu.com/21009/ | 00:37 |
| __ryan__ | better than messing your system up | 00:37 |
| visik7 | Malaz: what's selected in sys->pref->sound ? | 00:37 |
| Zeroyez | visik, run what from the console? | 00:37 |
| jameslr | there's nothing better than messing your system up...just to learn how to fix it :) | 00:37 |
| visik7 | Zeroyez: sudo <the command you want to run> | 00:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | __ryan__ Wubi can be just a dangerous | 00:37 |
| __ryan__ | Jack_Sparrow, i guess so | 00:38 |
| Zeroyez | well, sudo commands work | 00:38 |
| Malaz | visik: and http://paste.ubuntu.com/21010/ | 00:38 |
| Jack_Sparrow | shazzam You really should have a backup if anything you cant afford to lose when working at tthe partition level under any os | 00:38 |
| Zeroyez | It's just anything that has an gui | 00:38 |
| shazzam | its a 500 GB hd with a couple of tv shows... | 00:38 |
| Malaz | visik: All autodetect, except default mixer, which is c-media (which was selected when I installed 8.04) | 00:39 |
| Jack_Sparrow | shazzam THat does not change my suggestion | 00:39 |
| visik7 | Zeroyez: I want to know the output of the program that die after 0.2 seconds | 00:39 |
| shazzam | how much room do i setr aside for ubuntu and how do i do it? | 00:39 |
| glitsj16 | Zeroyez: for graphical apps, use gksudo, have you tried that ? | 00:39 |
| Zeroyez | ex. Nautilus, Login Screen Set Up | 00:39 |
| Zeroyez | yes | 00:39 |
| sagredo | Hi. I'd like to create a text file of all possible commands (pressing tab tab) | 00:39 |
| sagredo | How? | 00:39 |
| shazzam | im confused when the partition screen pops up | 00:39 |
| Zeroyez | I've been gksudo | 00:39 |
| shazzam | i choose manaul | 00:39 |
| jameslr | shazzam: the trouble with dual booting linux and windows is you can mess up your windows partition in the process if you're not careful | 00:39 |
| Jack_Sparrow | shazzam defrag the windows drive and let ubuntu installer resize the partition automatically | 00:39 |

| shazzam | well im syupid cause i scared im deleting my whole thing... how do itell it what to choose and where | 00:40 |
| visik7 | Malaz: yes but gstreamer relays on that settings so ... | 00:41 |
| sagredo | how can I > <pressing the tab key> <pressing the tab key> to a .txt? | 00:41 |
| Malaz | visik: Test now works. I'll see if music does | 00:41 |
| n00dle | Az, "pae/nx" ? No, I was referring to the issue of when you run the updater and get a kernel update, then there is no vboxdrv.ko update. | 00:41 |
| shazzam | well im stupid cause im scared im deleting my whole thing... how do itell it what to choose and where | 00:41 |

| PD | ho | 00:42 |
| flaran_ | the old drivers work fine, but I can only get 800x600 res =/ | 00:42 |
| shazzam | but i still want to use the drive for windows? it has movies and sruff on it?? | 00:42 |
| shazzam | stuff | 00:42 |
| flaran_ | anyone have any ideas? | 00:42 |
| Jack_Sparrow | shazzam You dont seem to be listening so I cant help you | 00:42 |
| visik7 | Malaz: probably some misconf side effects | 00:42 |
| visik7 | Malaz: good for you | 00:42 |
| visik7 | :) | 00:42 |
| dan_ | I have just read in some forums that explicitly setting DRI to 0666 fixes probs where regular users don't have direct rendering.. | 00:42 |
| shazzam | I want to listen and I want to understand | 00:42 |
| Malaz | visik: Well, thanks a lot. I wonder when Pulse will actually work... hopefully by 8.10... | 00:43 |
| Jack_Sparrow | shazzam restart the installer and let it resize the drive automatically | 00:43 |
| glitsj16 | Zeroyez: unless there where some nautilus settings in your trash that shouldn't interfere | 00:43 |
| visik7 | Malaz: it does works (at least for me) but not for flash | 00:43 |
| shazzam | what will that do? | 00:43 |
| legend2440 | Zeroyez: open /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname files and make sure hostname matches 2nd line in hosts file | 00:43 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | why am i not allowed to run most anything - this is what i always get = Failed to run /usr/bin/software-properties-gtk as user root. | 00:43 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | The underlying authorization mechanism (sudo) does not allow you to run this program. Contact the system administrator. how can i fix this eror. this is also preventing me from upgrading to hary heron | 00:43 |
| visik7 | Malaz: and since everybody use flash it dies in painfull death :) | 00:43 |
| Optimus55 | can't get to firefox website... :( | 00:43 |
| Malaz | visik: Hah, it worked ONLY for flash for a while on my comp. And videos, but that was it. | 00:43 |
| ricardo_ | tytyt | 00:44 |
| Malaz | Thanks again, visik. | 00:44 |
| visik7 | Malaz: yes some schizophrenic behavior | 00:44 |
| ricardo_ | oi | 00:44 |
| visik7 | Malaz: you're welcome | 00:44 |
| glitsj16 | Optimus55: knowing that the final 3.0 is freshly baked and the record attempt, i guess even mozilla can get overloaded .. | 00:44 |
| Jack_Sparrow | ricardo_ Please dont do that | 00:45 |
| ricardo_ | hi to brasil 1 | 00:45 |

| Jack_Sparrow | !br > ricardo_ | 00:45 |

| visik7 | :) | 00:47 |
| sudobash | wow ricardo is something | 00:47 |
| visik7 | (not kidding) | 00:47 |
| Zeroyez | but my problem isn't just with nautilus, it's anything that I apply root to that has a graphical interface | 00:47 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | visik7: sudo ls says nothing - | 00:47 |
| scizzo- | is virtualbox for generic kernel a bit broken in hardy? | 00:47 |

| scizzo- | I can't load the vbox module correctly it seems | 00:47 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | visik7: nada again | 00:47 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Zeroyez Have you used sudo to run gui apps in the past.. instead of gksudo? | 00:47 |
| n00dle | scizzo-, having the same prob just after the kernel update. | 00:47 |
| Zeroyez | nope | 00:48 |
| visik7 | N1N31NCHN41L5: nada in what sens ? | 00:48 |

| gaintsura | hey all, I've been dealing with my system locking up for about 2 months now, it does it completely random, and I could be running anything, This last time when it froze, just before it did, I noticed that there is a memory leak in something, although it locked up before I was able to find out. Where would I find out what it was? | 00:48 |

| __ryan__ | gaintsura, did you run memtest | 00:49 |

| gaintsura | __ryan__: yes, I've run memtest, and it found nothing | 00:49 |
| visik7 | N1N31NCHN41L5: so you not have any way to become root ? | 00:49 |
| Zeroyez | uh somehow the channel froze for me | 00:49 |
| __ryan__ | does it happen in X and console or just X | 00:49 |
| n00dle | scizzo-, I found a forum entry with a reference to a bug, but the launchpad system's down for an upgrade right now, and I can't go there to see if there's a workaround, a solution, or if we're just screwed | 00:49 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | visik7: how do i become root | 00:49 |
| gaintsura | __ryan__: both | 00:49 |

| mneptok | N1N31NCHN41L5: not to mention, sudo is not to be used with such things, anyway. an error is expected. | 00:50 |

| N1N31NCHN41L5 | i got that when i tried to open software sources - after that software sources doesnt even open now | 00:50 |

| gaintsura | thats kind of what I thought, but how do I find out whats causing them? | 00:58 |
| jameslr | Zeroyez: create another user and try to gksudo as another user some other process. if it works with the other user then it's likely something in root's home directory | 00:59 |

| __ryan__ | gaintsura, edit your grub menu.1st file and add defoptions= noapic | 00:59 |

| Zeroyez | okay | 01:00 |
| jameslr | Zeroyez: but if you're getting kernel segfaults it's likely a driver of some sort, maybe video? | 01:00 |

| Zeroyez | well it was the new kernel update that caused them | 01:01 |
| Juventino | so no one here got any idea about why u may get no sound??? | 01:01 |
| MrElendig | N1N31NCHN41L5: check that no pkgmanager are running, then kill the lock file | 01:01 |
| newbeginer | does it means the live cd i burn is broken or my cd-rom cannot run? | 01:01 |
| bazhang | N1N31NCHN41L5, cat /etc/apt/sources.list and past to paste.ubuntu.com | 01:01 |
| jameslr | Zeroyez: were you using custom drivers that you didn't install from repo? | 01:01 |
| gaintsura | __ryan__: isn't that supposed to be acpi ?? | 01:01 |
| Zeroyez | nope | 01:01 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | MrElendig: how do i do that??? | 01:01 |
| jameslr | Zeroyez: boot previous kernel and see if the problem clears up | 01:01 |
| MrElendig | N1N31NCHN41L5: man ps | 01:01 |
| Zeroyez | Oh, I've got virtualbox guest additions | 01:01 |
| jameslr | Zeroyez: that could do it | 01:02 |
| Zeroyez | Since half the time I'm always running ubuntu from an vmdk file on VBox on Windows | 01:02 |
| __ryan__ | gaintsura, yes soryr | 01:02 |
| __ryan__ | sorry | 01:02 |
| Zeroyez | But I've never had a problem till this darn kernel upgrade | 01:02 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | MrElendig: ok i typed man ps have a users man | 01:02 |

| __ryan__ | toshiba? | 01:02 |
| gaintsura | yes its a laptop | 01:02 |
| __ryan__ | is it toshiba by chance? | 01:03 |
| gaintsura | ... | 01:03 |
| gaintsura | what the hell.. are you psyhic? | 01:03 |
| gaintsura | lol | 01:03 |
| __ryan__ | haha i know the problem | 01:03 |
| gaintsura | ? | 01:03 |
| __ryan__ | gaintsura, my girlfriends toshiba was doing the same thing with vista | 01:03 |
| glitsj16 | newbeginer: it could mean a badly burned cd yes, did you check the md5 during the install ? | 01:04 |
| Zeroyez | be right back logging in on a different user | 01:04 |
| jameslr | Zeroyez: kernel upgrades are pretty major. Ubuntu is pretty aggressive with kernels, but then again i'm used to enterprise linux distros | 01:04 |
| newbeginer | i don know how to check md5 | 01:04 |
| gaintsura | __ryan__: ok, how do i fix it? | 01:04 |
| __ryan__ | gaintsura, i had to disable the power saving settings to fix it. | 01:04 |
| gaintsura | ?? | 01:04 |
| newbeginer | does nero speed can test the md5??? | 01:04 |
| __ryan__ | had to make it always 100% cpu power even while on battery | 01:04 |
| gaintsura | like disable ALL power saving? | 01:04 |
| __ryan__ | yes | 01:04 |
| gaintsura | care to point me in the direction? | 01:05 |
| glitsj16 | newbeginer: it's in the menu option when the live cd boots up, i think near the bottom, something like 'check cd for errors' | 01:05 |
| adamb_ | How could I tell if a server has booted back up from an unexpected shutdown? | 01:05 |
| mneptok | adamb_: ping | 01:05 |
| __ryan__ | gaintsura, i never did it for linux but i garuntee that's your problem, i bet that noacpi during boot will do it though | 01:05 |
| gaintsura | ok | 01:05 |
| jameslr | adamb_: check last | 01:05 |
| reteph | (does i just chime in if i'm looking for help?) | 01:06 |
| __ryan__ | i'm sure there's lots on google | 01:06 |
| legend2440 | open /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname files and make sure hostname matches 2nd line in hosts fileN1N31NCHN41L5: | 01:06 |
| glitsj16 | newbeginer: don't know nero speed, the install cd has that menu option, very easy | 01:06 |
| gaintsura | __ryan__: actually I noticed that a lot of distros dislike acpi on my laptop | 01:06 |
| mneptok | gaintsura: noacpi will not work, unless you are using an old bversion of Ubuntu | 01:06 |
| adamb_ | jameslr: and I should look for user reboot? | 01:06 |
| gaintsura | mneptok: Hardy | 01:06 |
| legend2440 | open /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname files and make sure hostname matches 2nd line in hosts file | 01:06 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | bazhang: http://paste.ubuntu.com/21016/ | 01:06 |
| __ryan__ | gaintsura, i'm not sure if toshiba has a fix for it yet but they didn't a few months ago when i was trying to fix my gf's | 01:06 |
| jameslr | adamb_: yeah | 01:06 |
| __ryan__ | i would call their tech support | 01:06 |
| mneptok | gaintsura: the "noacpi" kernel parameter has been deprecated in favor of "acpi=off" so use that instead | 01:06 |
| legend2440 | N1N31NCHN41L5: open /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname files and make sure hostname matches 2nd line in hosts file | 01:06 |

| Zeroyez | yeah i've still got the problem when logged on as a different user | 01:08 |
| gaintsura | I put acpi=off at the end of the kernel line right? | 01:08 |
| Zeroyez | I also tried restarting my computer and booting into a different version kernel and it still happens | 01:09 |
| __ryan__ | gaintsura, it must be a known issue by now maybe there's a bios patch | 01:09 |

| newbeginer | okay, i need to go for work now...tonight i will check the iso image tht you ppl recomened for me just now. thanks for helping. good days! | 01:13 |
| newbeginer | bye | 01:13 |
| Gun_Smoke | N1N31NCHN41L5, You still can't sudo? | 01:13 |
| jameslr | Zeroyez: if you boot the previous kernel do you still get the error? | 01:13 |
| Pici | N1N31NCHN41L5: they are files, not folders | 01:13 |
| jameslr | Zeroyez: or crashes | 01:13 |
| Zeroyez | yes | 01:13 |
| Gun_Smoke | everything is a file :) | 01:13 |

| Zeroyez | yes... | 01:14 |
| joshual | hey folks trying to figure out how to have my toucpad turn off when i plug in a mouse, and turn back on when i unplug it... there are some things about this in the forum but very poorly documented... | 01:14 |
| jameslr | Zeroyez: /var/log/messages say anything else strange? | 01:15 |
| legend2440 | N1N31NCHN41L5: /etc/hosts and /etc/hostname are files not folders. | 01:15 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | yea - dunce moment - i posted what is in my host.conf in here | 01:15 |
| Zeroyez | nope, just Jun 17 20:10:56 zeroyez-desktop kernel: [ 271.274952] nautilus[5746]: segfault at 00000000 eip 00000000 esp b631325c error 4 | 01:15 |

| RogueX | hi people how do i install themes? | 01:16 |
| RogueX | orange one is horrid | 01:16 |

| legend2440 | N1N31NCHN41L5: so you don't have a file named just hosts in the /etc folder? | 01:17 |
| jameslr | Zeroyez: and this is happening with any application? | 01:17 |
| Zeroyez | anything run as a different user that has a graphic interface | 01:18 |
| Zeroyez | actually, i don't know I haven't tried anything non graphical as a different user | 01:18 |
| reteph | help, please? | 01:19 |
| jameslr | Zeroyez: trash the /tmp/gconfd* /tmp/orbit-root | 01:19 |
| jameslr | Zeroyez: the /tmp/gconfd-root rather | 01:20 |
| pwolfe | why is it that when I install the nvidia driver from their site, it is over written upon a reboot? i have tried installing with envy, thats even worse | 01:20 |
| Juventino | guys, when u run speaker-test the speakers work alright, but i still get nothing in X | 01:20 |
| jameslr | Zeroyez: not all of them | 01:20 |
| stewy__ | night all | 01:20 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | legends - i found the files :D | 01:20 |
| stewy__ | got a question, i'm trying to do a ./configure for the qtella installation | 01:20 |
| Zeroyez | hmm that'd be sudo rm -r /tmp/gconfd-root/* ? | 01:20 |
| stewy__ | however when i run the ./configure i get an error saying it cant locate the qt header files though i know i have them install | 01:21 |
| stewy__ | ed | 01:21 |
| jameslr | Zeroyez: sudo rm -rf /tmp/gconfd-root should do it | 01:21 |
| Zeroyez | okay | 01:21 |
| dougb | is there an easy way to connect to a secure webdav in ubuntu 8.04? | 01:21 |
| dougb | i've tried looking on google and ubuntuforums.org with no success | 01:21 |
| Zeroyez | done | 01:22 |
| Flannel | dougb: What are you trying to access via webdav, and what is your definition of secure? | 01:22 |
| dougb | Flannel username and password | 01:22 |
| legend2440 | N1N31NCHN41L5: can you paste the hosts and hostname files? | 01:22 |
| jameslr | Zeroyez: try it again?? | 01:23 |
| === Pinky is now known as PinkMan | ||
| dougb | i read on ubuntu forums that the only method of webdav 8.04 supports out of the box is to connect to a webdav with guest support | 01:23 |
| dougb | or with a guest account | 01:23 |
| === PinkMan is now known as Pinky | ||

| Drk_Guy | Hi guys! | 01:24 |
| bazhang | elllaxxx, not here | 01:24 |
| yitz_ | Hi peoples. I got Debian but am thinking of switching th Ubuntu, Debian takes too long to release and the Deb unstable is too unstable. Can I just switch repos and start upgrading packages? Or would that really not work? | 01:24 |
| stewy__ | ... no help :( | 01:24 |
| elllaxxx | OH MAN | 01:24 |
| elllaxxx | where? | 01:24 |
| Drk_Guy | Im having a little problem | 01:24 |
| Flannel | dougb: oh, sorry, you want to conenct to one, not set one up. Right. There's a number of things you can add: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=webdav&searchon=all&suite=hardy§ion=all (a lot of those will be libraries/server related0 | 01:24 |
| bazhang | elllaxxx, no idea; offtopic here | 01:24 |
| Zeroyez | nope still happens | 01:24 |
| genii | dougb: There has been a bug filed against this with Nautilus https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/222532 (although launchpad is currently unavailable) | 01:24 |
| Flannel | yitz_: It may work, but isn't supported, no. | 01:24 |
| ubottu | genii: Error: Could not parse data returned by Launchpad: HTTP Error 503: Service Temporarily Unavailable (https://launchpad.net/bugs/222532/+text) | 01:24 |
| jameslr | Zeroyez: sorry man I'm outta ideas. | 01:24 |
| Drk_Guy | I've just done a clean Gutsy install with the alternate CD, but i cant configure eth0 so i can enable Firestarter, what can i do? | 01:24 |
| Zeroyez | I'll try booting inside virtualbox and see if anything good happens | 01:25 |
| mabus3ac | hi | 01:25 |
| sEbAsTiAnFfX | How can i install firefox 3 in ubuntu ffrom a package? | 01:25 |
| bazhang | elllaxxx, please dont PM me about this as it is offtopic and I have no idea | 01:25 |
| reteph | installation issue with random shutdowns sprinkled throughout the process. should i ask about it here or just go for it on the forums? | 01:25 |
| yitz_ | Flannel: That sounds very non-commital ;) Any idea is people did it? | 01:25 |
| stewy__ | wat kind of package sebastian? | 01:25 |
| IdleOne | sEbAsTiAnFfX, you cant | 01:25 |
| sEbAsTiAnFfX | :O | 01:25 |
| sEbAsTiAnFfX | :( | 01:25 |
| mabus3ac | is there an expert on installing? | 01:25 |
| Drk_Guy | I've just done a clean Gutsy install with the alternate CD, but i cant configure eth0 so i can enable Firestarter, what can i do? | 01:25 |
| genii | Drk_Guy: man interfaces will show you examples of entries you can make in the file /etc/network/interfaces to declare your ethernet devices | 01:25 |
| Flannel | yitz_: It's noncommital because it probably wont work ;) No, I dont know of anyone who has done it. | 01:25 |
| IdleOne | sEbAsTiAnFfX, wait a few days and there should be a package soon | 01:25 |
| sEbAsTiAnFfX | but there will be a package soon? | 01:26 |
| sEbAsTiAnFfX | ok | 01:26 |
| stewy__ | can somebody help me with the qtella install? | 01:26 |
| sEbAsTiAnFfX | thanks | 01:26 |
| Drk_Guy | Any command to configure ip adress and the like? | 01:26 |
| stewy__ | sebastian the package is available in synaptec package manager | 01:26 |
| Drk_Guy | genii, i need to configure static IP | 01:26 |
| stewy__ | the install is available | 01:26 |
| IdleOne | stewy__, firefox 3.0? | 01:26 |
| dougb | ok thanks you guys, i'm working with a bunch of kids right now so i'll go back to that page you provided Flannel | 01:26 |
| genii | Drk_Guy: Yes, the manpage covers those examples as well. | 01:26 |
| bazhang | !install | mabus3ac | 01:26 |
| ubottu | mabus3ac: Ubuntu can be installed in a lot of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall. Don't want to use a CD? Try http://tinyurl.com/3exghs - See also !automate | 01:26 |
| sEbAsTiAnFfX | stewy, but is RC | 01:26 |
| sEbAsTiAnFfX | is not the final | 01:26 |
| dougb | and i'll keep an update on that launchpad page genii | 01:26 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | legend2440: paste in here???? | 01:26 |
| yitz_ | Flannel: Probably not? Oh well. I guess I'm gonna stick with Deb for the while. Maybe get backports... Thanks for your time! | 01:26 |
| bazhang | sEbAsTiAnFfX, the final is in repos; should hit your mirror soon. | 01:27 |
| legend2440 | N1N31NCHN41L5: no in pastebin | 01:27 |
| emorris | hi, even if I leave the root account disabled, should I still give it a password with sudo passwd, otherwise it can be accessed in recovery mode? | 01:27 |
| stewy__ | yes its the final | 01:27 |
| legend2440 | !paste | 01:27 |
| ubottu | pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 01:27 |
| IdleOne | bazhang, really ahh wow that was quick | 01:27 |
| genii | dougb: Should be back up soon, it's a few minutes overdue to come back from some maintenance | 01:27 |
| gaintsura | __ryan__: I ran acpi=off and that REALLY did not go well with my system. Also, something that clicked during that ordeal, at boot after selecting my OS, I get a bug notice.. let me see if I can find it | 01:27 |
| stewy__ | also synaptic also updated it automatically for me | 01:27 |
| bazhang | IdleOne, thankfully so :) | 01:27 |
| IdleOne | bazhang, hehe I hear you | 01:28 |
| jameslr | emorris: securing a box from physical access is a challenge. No password security will give complete peace of mind | 01:28 |
| mabus3ac | i just finished building my computer, put a install disc in to get an os on it, but it cant load it. i tried like 4 distro but none will work... | 01:28 |
| bazhang | mabus3ac, did you set in bios to boot from cd first? | 01:28 |
| ravtux | have you tried a live cd mabus? | 01:28 |
| jameslr | emorris: trust your users or...don't let them access the machine :P | 01:28 |
| keithclark | Hi everyone...anyone know how to setup a scanner? Mine used to work before the 8.04 upgrade and I'm not sure how to get it back. | 01:28 |
| Flannel | emorris: No. You shouldn't give it a password. Physical access to a system is doom for security. | 01:28 |
| t35t0r | where is "man 2 dup" ? | 01:28 |
| stewy__ | i cant install qtella :( | 01:28 |
| mabus3ac | it starts booting from cd. it even shows the loading bar for ubuntu | 01:28 |
| mabus3ac | but then it crushes | 01:29 |
| bazhang | mabus3ac, then md5 the iso | 01:29 |
| Drk_Guy | genii, There is a GUI config utility available, but which is the cmd for running it? | 01:29 |
| emorris | jameslr, Flannel: is there any harm in giving it a password though? | 01:29 |
| mabus3ac | md5? | 01:29 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | legend2440: http://paste.ubuntu.com/21019/ | 01:29 |
| bazhang | !md5 | mabus3ac | 01:29 |
| ubottu | mabus3ac: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which an MD5 checksum is provided), see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/VerifyIsoHowto or http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/answers/LQ_ISO/Checking_the_md5sum_in_Windows | 01:29 |
| reteph | i have the same issue as mabus3ac | 01:29 |
| swansk | Firefox update today? | 01:29 |
| jameslr | emorris: not really. as long as the password is secure | 01:29 |
| Flannel | emorris: You'll be enabling the root account | 01:29 |
| bazhang | reteph, then see ubottu link above | 01:29 |
| t35t0r | where are all the programming man pages?!!? | 01:29 |
| stewy__ | when i do the ./configure on qtella it says it cant find the qt header files but i have the qt header files installed | 01:29 |
| reteph | md5'ed everything. | 01:29 |
| bazhang | swansk, yes to final | 01:29 |
| reteph | it's all correct. | 01:29 |
| __ryan__ | gaintsura, did your system still boot? | 01:29 |
| bazhang | reteph, then do integrity check on disk | 01:30 |
| * swansk 's update manager at work | 01:30 | |
| gaintsura | __ryan__: yes, however it disabled A LOT of stuff | 01:30 |
| BUBOY | hello, i need help, I was beeing stupid today and did su and tried userdel root, and now i can't boot up | 01:30 |
| emorris | jameslr, Flannel: really? I thought you could just leave it disabled but set a password | 01:30 |
| jameslr | since when is root 'disabled'? | 01:30 |
| legend2440 | N1N31NCHN41L5: did you find "hostname" file in /etc? and does it say ubuntu in there? | 01:30 |
| jameslr | it has a shell... | 01:30 |
| __ryan__ | gaintsura, yeah there must be another way | 01:30 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | legend2440: and ALL it says in hostname is ubuntu | 01:30 |
| Flannel | emorris: No, its disabled, or it has a password. If you wanted, I suppose you could set up a password at the GRUB prompt. But again, access to a physical system meansyou can circumvent any sort of security put into place | 01:31 |
| Zeroyez | everything's working fine when I run Ubuntu from a vmdk on virtualbox | 01:31 |
| stewy__ | *sigh* ahh being ignored... such a fun activity | 01:31 |
| Flannel | jameslr: Always | 01:31 |
| Zeroyez | I can do gksudo and everything | 01:31 |
| soundray | jameslr: the root account is locked. You can get a root shell with sudo -i | 01:31 |
| mabus3ac | i did that integrity check , and it finds a problem, but i dont realy see why it should be on 5 cds | 01:31 |
| emorris | jameslr: sorry, i meant like loging in to gnome or a login shell | 01:31 |
| reteph | bazhang: this is the second disk i've tried. they checked out. i also tried my old 5.10 disks that were official disk from ubuntu. same issue. | 01:31 |
| Flannel | mabus3ac: You need to burn it slower. 4x is recommended. | 01:31 |
| IdleOne | bazhang, remind me what the command to see what version package is installed? | 01:31 |
| emorris | Flannel: OK, thanks | 01:31 |
| bazhang | stewy__, just saying cant do it will get little help; we need exact errors, what you tried, what tutorial you were following etc | 01:31 |
| Flannel | IdleOne: apt-cahe policy package | 01:31 |
| genii | Drk_Guy: When there is no entries in the /etc/network/interfaces normally networkmanager is giving an icon which you can use. | 01:31 |
| IdleOne | Flannel, thanks was the policy part I forgot lol | 01:31 |
| mabus3ac | well, ill try. but is it normal that all 5 cds run on my old computer and not on my new one? | 01:32 |
| Drk_Guy | genii, Cant find it | 01:32 |
| legend2440 | N1N31NCHN41L5: ok thats right. sorry i thought that might be the problem. sometimes hosts and hostname files don't match and it causes problems like yours.. but not the case here | 01:32 |
| Flannel | mabus3ac: Have you tried the alternate CD? | 01:32 |
| bazhang | mabus3ac, no that is not normal | 01:32 |
| genii | Drk_Guy: I'm curently on KDE so I can't easily guide you on where to find it | 01:32 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | no - and i am SOOOOOOOO lost | 01:32 |
| gaintsura | __ryan__: I cant find the bug notice anywhere =\ | 01:32 |
| IdleOne | Flannel, 3.0~b5+nobinonly-0ubuntu3 0 is FF3.0 final? | 01:32 |
| JFlash | guys i need help | 01:32 |
| mabus3ac | no i tried ubuntu, ubuntu 64 , kubuntu, mandriva and knoppix | 01:32 |
| JFlash | i have this ubuntu cd | 01:32 |
| legend2440 | N1N31NCHN41L5: problem just started? | 01:33 |
| bazhang | mabus3ac, the alt cd or the minimal perhaps then | 01:33 |
| mabus3ac | all but u64 run on my old one | 01:33 |
| stewy__ | bazhang i got the qtella file as a tar.gz file. Did the tar xvzf thing and its now extracted. Im trying to run the configure now but it wont run | 01:33 |
| JFlash | i setup the computer to boot from the cd drive | 01:33 |
| JFlash | but it wont fire the installation | 01:33 |
| t35t0r | it was in manpages-dev ! | 01:33 |
| Flannel | IdleOne: No, that's beta5. hardy-updates has rc1, and final will be out soon-ish (before 8.04.1) | 01:33 |
| Drk_Guy | genii, I dont knwo how, but it disappeared | 01:33 |
| arooni | is there a way to send faxes via ubuntu thru the internet (as i dont have a fax card or fax line)? | 01:33 |
| bazhang | JFlash, give us the whole question on one line please-->easy on the enter key | 01:33 |
| soundray | mabus3ac: could the CD drive be faulty? | 01:33 |
| JFlash | anyway i can trigger ubuntu installation from the command line ? | 01:33 |
| stewy__ | bazhang the error i get is "qt headers not found. If you have installed Qt in an unusual place, please use the "--with-qt-includes=" option | 01:33 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | first time i tried to upgrade or add software repositories was today | 01:33 |
| soundray | arooni: there are OS-independent services for that | 01:33 |
| swansk | I am going to assume today's firefox update isn't all that different from what I have been using on Ubuntu. | 01:34 |
| genii | Drk_Guy: You could try running it by: alt-f2 then: networkmanager | 01:34 |
| mabus3ac | i suspect my building skillz to be faulty | 01:34 |
| IdleOne | Flannel, bazhang said it was already up but he may have been mistaken or maybe my mirrors havent been updated yet | 01:34 |
| gaintsura | is there a way to pause boot up? | 01:34 |
| reteph | the issue comes up randomly throughout installation.. i've seen some stuff on the forums possible relating to "intel_rng: FWH not detected" but i'm not sure how to deal with it. | 01:34 |
| bazhang | stewy__, you compiling from source? be sure build-essential is installed | 01:34 |
| jameslr | arooni: www.efax.com? | 01:34 |
| gaintsura | or even be able to see EVERYTHING that is output by the system from the time you select an OS to boot | 01:34 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | legend2440: first time i tried to upgrade or add software repositories was today | 01:34 |
| JFlash | how can I bootstrap the livecd from the command line please. It's not booting on startup for some reason | 01:34 |
| legend2440 | N1N31NCHN41L5: maybe if you post your problem here again someone will have an idea | 01:34 |
| mabus3ac | i ll finish for today... thx for your help | 01:34 |
| Drk_Guy | genii, Found cmd, network-admin | 01:35 |
| jameslr | arooni: drivetoyourneighborhoodkinkos.com | 01:35 |
| Flannel | arooni: There are also programs in the repos: efax (with efax-gtk), anda number of other applications: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=fax&searchon=names&suite=hardy§ion=all | 01:35 |
| stewy__ | bazhang yes i have build-essential installed and yes im compiling from source, it was the only method available | 01:35 |
| Hodge | Is gnome better than kde? | 01:35 |
| N1N31NCHN41L5 | my problem is i cant upgrade or ANYTHING that comes from a menu and asks for a password is denied | 01:35 |
| Drk_Guy | WTF? | 01:35 |
| Flannel | Hodge: No, they're different. | 01:35 |
| IdleOne | !best | Hodge | 01:35 |
| ubottu | Hodge: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 01:35 |
| bazhang | Hodge, offtopic here; please go to #ubuntu-offtopic | 01:35 |
| ravtux | i want to ask a stupid question, how do you phonetically say ubuntu? you bun tuh? | 01:35 |
| Drk_Guy | I started network-admin with gksu, but it wont let me modify values | 01:35 |
| glitsj16 | swansk: not much no, i guess you shouln't notice any changes, besides some extensions (add-ons) you might have installed that are still not compatible | 01:36 |
| Drk_Guy | :( | 01:36 |
| Flannel | ravtux: oo-boon-too | 01:36 |
| ravtux | ty :-) | 01:36 |
| reteph | so, try alternate cd install and then come back and get further assistance if that doesn't work? | 01:36 |
| soundray | arooni: where are you located? | 01:36 |
| arooni | soundray, seattle, wa | 01:36 |
| bazhang | reteph, well you could put some boot params in like acpi=off and remove quiet and splash to see all the error messages | 01:37 |
| FireFlyFan | I am looking to format my HDD to NTFS rather then Fat32 how would I got about this? | 01:37 |
| soundray | arooni: there are plenty of US-based email-to-fax services | 01:37 |
| arooni | soundray, any free? | 01:37 |
| reteph | okay. thank you. i'll give all of those a try. have a good night to those who helped. | 01:37 |
| stewy__ | bazhang i tried running ./configure --with-qt-includes but i dont know wat to put after the = sign | 01:37 |
| jameslr | FireFlyFan: best done in windows...just use the GUI tools to format it as NTFS | 01:38 |
| ASULutzy | FireFlyFan: You can just fdisk | 01:38 |
| soundray | arooni: probably. Some of the UK ones are free. | 01:38 |
| FireFlyFan | yeah I lack windows at the moment which is why I am asking.... | 01:38 |
| jameslr | ASULutzy: fdisk doesn't format the drive, just partitions it. | 01:38 |
| ASULutzy | jameslr: You can create a new partition and set the file system type to ntfs, no? | 01:38 |
| Bizzeh | hey, how difficult is it to alter the ubuntu boot splash logo? | 01:38 |
| jameslr | ASULutzy: yeah, but I dare you to write a file to that resulting drive... | 01:39 |

| solexious | [Q] What is the sudo apt-get command to auto remove stuff i dont need? | 01:39 |
| ASULutzy | jameslr: Really that bad huh? | 01:39 |
| soundray | solexious: sudo apt-get autoremove | 01:39 |
| ASULutzy | jameslr: You can't just set the id to 7 and then write it? | 01:39 |
| BUBOY | hey guys i need help i accidently deleted root | 01:39 |
| solexious | soundray: Thank you | 01:39 |
| jameslr | ASULutzy: no, you have to create a proper filesystem on it first. | 01:39 |
| soundray | BUBOY: what exactly did you delete? | 01:39 |
| stewy__ | another problem i'm having, how do i get rid of the msg on start up that says "undefined video mode 31b" | 01:39 |
| ASULutzy | jameslr: oh of course | 01:40 |
| BUBOY | soundray: i was being dumb, and did userdel root | 01:40 |
| legend2440 | N1N31NCHN41L5: does sudo -i work in terminal? | 01:40 |
| ASULutzy | jameslr: I was saying fdisk it to set the partition and then use mkfs.ntfs | 01:40 |
| ASULutzy | jameslr: http://linux.die.net/man/8/mkfs.ntfs | 01:41 |
| gaintsura | MP-Bios Bug: 8254 timer not connected to IO-APIC <--- anyone know what thats all about? (I'm googling now( | 01:41 |
| BUBOY | now it gives me sudo: no passwd entry for root! | 01:41 |
| soundray | BUBOY: you can probably boot from a live CD and fix it. | 01:41 |
| jameslr | ASULutzy: it's just preference I guess. I wouldn't use a windows utility to make an ext3 filesystem | 01:41 |
| BUBOY | ok, thanks | 01:41 |
| ASULutzy | jameslr: I'll agree with you here that it's probably safer to use windows | 01:41 |
| jameslr | ASULutzy: that's all I was saying. Not that you couldn't do it. I know you can format NTFS on linux. just scary though... | 01:41 |
| soundray | BUBOY: you need to mount your root directory and edit /mnt/etc/passwd (you can use the live system's /etc/passwd as a model) | 01:41 |
| gaintsura | __ryan__: you may have been right with the noapic as apposed to acpi=off | 01:42 |
| Karsynoma | Just a quick question, has there been any progress in terms of getting the ATI drivers to work for Hardy by any chance? Previously, the Catalyst 8.4 driver for my x1650 worked fine under Gutsy, but not so much with Hardy/Elyssa. | 01:42 |
| gaintsura | hey IndyGunFreak ^_^ | 01:42 |
| BUBOY | thank you guys | 01:42 |
| IndyGunFreak | gaintsura: how's it going.. | 01:42 |
| jameslr | Karsynoma: gl with that one. I have yet to get my Catalyst drivers working in Hardy with DRI | 01:42 |
| __ryan__ | gaintsura, why's that | 01:43 |
| ASULutzy | Karsynoma: my desktop has a 2900XT and uses the fglrx drivers just fine | 01:43 |
| gaintsura | not bad, I'm getting closer to solving my lock problems... it seems there is a memory leak in something | 01:43 |
| __ryan__ | i think apic is more so power management | 01:43 |
| __ryan__ | i'm not sure | 01:43 |
| ASULutzy | Karsynoma, jameslr: Though I haven't tried dual-head on the desktop | 01:43 |
| gaintsura | __ryan__: MP-Bios Bug: 8254 timer not connected to IO-APIC <-- that and a post on linuxquestions.org | 01:43 |
| jameslr | ASULutzy: are you getting DRI to work properly? compiz and the like? | 01:43 |
| gaintsura | IndyGunFreak: not bad, figuring out my locking problem, seems to be a memory leak/hog | 01:43 |
| ASULutzy | jameslr: Compiz works just fine on my desktop | 01:43 |
| IndyGunFreak | gaintsura: purple? | 01:43 |
| ASULutzy | jameslr: Again, using a 2900XT | 01:43 |
| glitsj16 | __ryan__: that's acpi | 01:44 |
| gaintsura | IndyGunFreak: I'm not sure exactly what the memory leak/hog is, I never get a chance to find out before I fully lock up | 01:44 |
| mellery_ | irc://irc.rizon.net/KaizouFansubs | 01:44 |
| jameslr | ASULutzy: what does your fglrxinfo output? mine is using MesaGL...I need to fix that. I still can't get the damned DRI to work though. | 01:44 |
| ASULutzy | jameslr: I did have to write a custom script to rewrite /proc/mtrr in order to get fglrx to work with 4 gb or more of ram... That was absolutely brutal, but other than that | 01:44 |
| gaintsura | glitsj16: then what is apic ? | 01:44 |
| jameslr | ASULutzy: I had to uninstall all compiz otherwise I would get a white screen | 01:44 |
| IndyGunFreak | gaintsura: ok, i think i know who you are..lol, i didn't recognize the nname | 01:44 |
| getBoa | does anybody here have the RTL8187 wireless card??? | 01:44 |
| soundray | gaintsura: advanced programmable interrupt controller | 01:44 |
| gaintsura | =P | 01:44 |
| ASULutzy | jameslr: I wonder if your problem is related to what mine was... Do you have >3.2GB of ram? | 01:44 |
| glitsj16 | __RYAN__: not sure, but i think that is a BIOS related system | 01:44 |
| gaintsura | soundray: ahh ok | 01:44 |
| jameslr | ASULutzy: no, just 2GB | 01:44 |
| IndyGunFreak | gaintsura: well i wouldn't have thought of a memory leak, thats for sure.. | 01:45 |
| gaintsura | soundray: is it viable to disable it if its causing problems? | 01:45 |
| jameslr | ASULutzy: are you running 32bit? or 64? | 01:45 |
| JFlash | how can I bootstrap the livecd from the command line of another distro please? It's not booting on startup for some reason | 01:45 |
| ASULutzy | jameslr: 64 bit on the desktop | 01:45 |
| Karsynoma | The whole issue is a bit frustrating. I naively thought that the Catalyst 8.5 driver would somehow solve this issue, but my effort was in vain. That was a 54MB or so download, and I'm on dial-up. I nearly yanked my hair out. | 01:45 |
| soundray | gaintsura: yes | 01:45 |
| gaintsura | IndyGunFreak: me either, I caught it out of the corner of my eye on my task bar, swap and physical were full up | 01:45 |
| __ryan__ | gaintsura, either way your problem is the power settings for your cpu's, not sure how to disable it though | 01:45 |
| IndyGunFreak | gaintsura: hmm | 01:45 |
| gaintsura | soundray: ok, so it would be noapic right? | 01:45 |
| ish_nitti | irc://irc.omgirc.com/chatzone | 01:45 |
| nspryspartan | hey any one here has firefox3 yet? | 01:45 |
| jameslr | ASULutzy: I have an X850 Pro. A bit older than your card...should still work. | 01:45 |
| soundray | gaintsura: yes | 01:45 |
| gaintsura | ^_^ thanks soundray | 01:45 |
| ish_nitti | nspryspartan, yeah i just updated it | 01:45 |
| IndyGunFreak | gaintsura: ok, so it wasn't my fault, i t was your fault for not giving me enougth info..lol | 01:45 |
| ASULutzy | jameslr: I can't unfortunately get the output of fglrxinfo from here | 01:46 |
| ish_nitti | nspryspartan, a quick sudo apt-get update will get you FF3 | 01:46 |
| nspryspartan | well can i get some help on it? | 01:46 |
| gaintsura | IndyGunFreak: =P I didn't evne know it was happening until about an hour ago lol | 01:46 |
| nspryspartan | ohh ok i try it. thank you ish! | 01:46 |
| IndyGunFreak | lol | 01:46 |
| ASULutzy | jameslr: I'm in class on my laptop which has an Intel integrated card... I can ssh to my box at home but no way to get fglrxinfo output to work right | 01:46 |
| jameslr | ASULutzy: I see | 01:46 |
| ASULutzy | jameslr: I guess I could set up a VNC server, but it's probably easier to just wait till I get home | 01:46 |
| soundray | ish_nitti: that won't get you any new packages | 01:46 |
| gaintsura | soundray, __ryan__: I'm gonna go try this, I shall brb! | 01:47 |
| ish_nitti | soundray, but should pop up the update notification for them | 01:47 |
| ASULutzy | jameslr: You can either write me an email address/send me a forum message, my name on the ubuntu forums is ASULutzy | 01:47 |
| ASULutzy | jameslr: And I'll be happy to give you the output of my fglrxinfo | 01:47 |
| pierd | hello, is there a way to install ubuntu from the console, avoiding to load X and all that? | 01:48 |
| jameslr | ASULutzy: i've been hanging out in here. I don't browse forums often. Thanks though | 01:48 |
| soundray | !alternate | pierd | 01:48 |
| ubottu | pierd: The Alternate CD is a classical text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the alternate checkbox on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal - Torrent at http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.04/ubuntu-8.04-alternate-i386.iso.torrent | 01:48 |
| illriginal | ANyone know how to check if you have java? There's a site that streams music and my firefox browser doesn't respond to the music player which is java based | 01:48 |
| ASULutzy | jameslr: Well if I see you in #ubuntu again I'll be sure to give you the output (: | 01:48 |
| Karsynoma | I suppose I'll bite the bullet and try the fglrx driver again. It failed to work in the Linux Mint RC1 beta, and I can only assume that it'll do the same again. | 01:48 |
| jameslr | illriginal: type java at a terminal? | 01:48 |
| ASULutzy | Karsynoma: Yea, fglrx sucks without a doubt, but it's generally workable | 01:49 |
| LordOllie | wow, 63 updates :/ | 01:49 |
| illriginal | hold on james | 01:49 |
| soundray | illriginal: you need to check whether there is a Java plugin (load about:plugins as the URL) and make sure it's matched with your configured JRE (check with update-alternatives --list java) | 01:49 |
| Bizzeh | soundray: could i use the example in /usr/share/doc/libusplash-dev/examples, replace the images and build that one? | 01:49 |
| soundray | Bizzeh: probably | 01:50 |
| illriginal | jameslr, when I type java i get all kinds of output | 01:50 |
| Karsynoma | ASULutzy, no kidding, but at this rate, any sort of support for the 3d effects will be welcomed. This is getting absolutely annoying, so much so that I actually thought of reverting to either Linux Mint 4 or Gutsy to get the support back, not only for Compiz, but for a number of other applications. | 01:50 |
| jameslr | illriginal: tells you that the program 'java' can be found in several packages? | 01:50 |
| LordOllie | illriginal, instructing you on switches and options? | 01:50 |
| illriginal | yes sir | 01:50 |
| asmo[B] | I'm having problems getting my optical out to work for sound, is there a way to make sure that I have the right sound drivers? nothing fails when booting | 01:51 |
| illriginal | jameslr, im at this website: http://www.610wiod.com/cc-common/ondemand/faq/ | 01:51 |
| jameslr | illriginal: you can follow the instructions in the output: sudo apt-get install <selected packages>. I personally would download java from sun and install it | 01:51 |
| ASULutzy | Karsynoma: How are you installing the driver? I've used Envy and it's worked well, and I've also download the binary from ati.com and generated the hardy package and installed that and it worked | 01:51 |
| illriginal | it's the audio player on the upper left hand corner. | 01:51 |
| glitsj16 | illriginal: for java browser support you will need java plugin, have you installed one ? | 01:51 |
| scragar | anyone any idea when virtualbox will have latest kernel supported for 64 bit? | 01:52 |
| illriginal | glitsj16, im not sure, that's what im trying to figure out. I have firefox 3 beta | 01:52 |
| ASULutzy | scragar: They generally lag behind a few days before a suitable module is available for the most cutting edge kernel | 01:52 |
| Karsynoma | ASULutzy, the binary from the ATI website. I've tried both versions 8.4 and 8.5, both of which have failed for Hardy/Elyssa. | 01:52 |
| ASULutzy | scragar: I had to use -17 for about a week before modules for -18 became available | 01:53 |
| ASULutzy | Karsynoma: Try Envy? | 01:53 |
| jameslr | illriginal: like soundray suggested: go to "about:plugins" in the address bar of Firefox. | 01:53 |
| ASULutzy | !envy | Karsynoma | 01:53 |
| ubottu | Karsynoma: envyng is an updated version of the *UNSUPPORTED* envy package. It is now part of the ubuntu universe repository (envyng-gtk OR envyng-qt) and has community support. As an early version, its results may vary but this should be used over the unsupported envy package. | 01:53 |
| Karsynoma | ASULutzy, the Envy route is tempting... but guess who has dial-up? This guy! | 01:53 |
| ASULutzy | Karsynoma: Heh, sometimes you have to suffer ;) | 01:53 |
| glitsj16 | illriginal: enter about-plugins (with a ":" instead of a "-") into the urlbar and you can see (the ":" is just there because otherwise a smiley pops here to make it unreadable, not to mess around lol) | 01:53 |
| Elrox | power just got knocked out and now cant log in, says nick already in use,,, how do i fix? | 01:54 |
| jameslr | illriginal: by default you won't have it most likely. Just download java from sun and install it. You'll need to link the plugin from the distribution to the plugins directory for firefox. I think that's /usr/lib/mozillaplugins | 01:54 |
| Karsynoma | ASULutzy, time to troll the internets before taking that dive. Thanks for the assistance. | 01:54 |
| jameslr | er /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins | 01:54 |
| LordOllie | Elrox, /msg nickserv ghost <nick> <password> | 01:55 |
| illriginal | jameslr, i did the about : plugins | 01:55 |
| scragar | ASULutzy: OK, thanks for the info. | 01:55 |
| illriginal | I see that java is installed, jameslr | 01:55 |
| Elrox | TY LordOllie | 01:55 |
| LordOllie | Elrox, np | 01:55 |
| jameslr | then you should be good to go | 01:55 |
| ASULutzy | Karsynoma, scragar: no problem :) | 01:56 |
| illriginal | would you be able to go to this site and see if the stream player works? http://www.610wiod.com/cc-common/ondemand/faq/ | 01:56 |
| IdleOne | illriginal, restart firefox also and try the site again | 01:56 |
| illriginal | maybe the site is having problems? not sure... | 01:56 |
| sjovan | how can you update your nokia n82 sofware, when then prog you supose to use only suprt osx and win? | 01:56 |

| Jack_Sparrow | gaintsura Which bug notice did noapic fix for you? | 01:58 |

| nspryspartan | hi i need to know how is Firefox 3 ? | 01:58 |
| jameslr | illriginal: try other java apps on the web | 01:59 |
| gaintsura | nspryspartan: its not bad, I've got it right now, just put it on yesterday | 01:59 |
| illriginal | jameslr, because I don't think my java is working properly =\ | 01:59 |
| Vedestin | fine, thanks for asking, nspryspartan | 01:59 |
| jenjen | I'm trying to get wireless working in ubuntu 8.04 on a Compaq Presario F700 with no luck so far | 01:59 |
| nspryspartan | well i not sure if i have it? | 01:59 |
| Jack_Sparrow | ASULutzy the most I have been here is 20 hrs in a day | 01:59 |
| asmo[B] | nspryspartan: I found FF3 kind of slow, switched back to 2 | 01:59 |
| Vedestin | firefox 3 was wondering how you are actually, nspryspartan | 01:59 |
| Jack_Sparrow | gaintsura thanks.. just for my notes | 01:59 |
| IdleOne | illriginal, the stream is not working for me either | 01:59 |
| ASULutzy | Jack_Sparrow: What are they paying you? :P | 01:59 |
| nspryspartan | cause i have firefox 2 still on the application list. | 01:59 |
| Vedestin | i use firefox 3 on ubuntu | 02:00 |
| Vedestin | it's good, i don't know what your problem was asmo[B] | 02:00 |
| nspryspartan | and i got the update for it. and on the website it replaces firefox 2 | 02:00 |
| illriginal | IdleOne, ok thanks... I was hoping it was just their site. | 02:00 |
| JRiZ | JenJen I have the compaq Presario v2000 all I did was install wifi-radar from the repos | 02:00 |
| Jack_Sparrow | ASULutzy I wish | 02:00 |
| gaintsura | Vedestin: if you used it on any other system you wouldn't be here >=P | 02:00 |
| nspryspartan | so i not sure if i have it. | 02:00 |
| asmo[B] | Vedestin: maybe it's the drugs | 02:00 |
| gaintsura | Jack_Sparrow: NP | 02:00 |
| IdleOne | illriginal, well all that proves is that we both cant listen. does not mean that site is down. but it's a start | 02:00 |
| Jack_Sparrow | JRiZ wifi radar has caused some issues in the past.. | 02:00 |
| jenjen | JRiZ, i have all that installed, however it does not detect any wireless devices | 02:00 |
| scifiguy951 | how can i speed things up?? | 02:01 |
| gaintsura | Jack_Sparrow: now, I can only hope that it fixed my system lock issue | 02:01 |
| nspryspartan | so any advice plez i really like Firefox and thunderbird. | 02:01 |
| JRiZ | hmmm thats weird I been using it for like 5 months now and no problems, at the time I didnt know of any other options | 02:01 |
| nspryspartan | and also why is it every time i look at videos or just brows the web it closes like nothing? | 02:02 |
| asmo[B] | nspryspartan: you never really asked a question... except how is it, and you got 3 opinions, one negative, one positive and one sarcastic | 02:02 |
| jenjen | in fact i don't really see what type of benefit wifi-radar would do for my situation | 02:02 |
| dabbill | The background on my conky is shifted up some. Any one know of a way to fix this? | 02:02 |
| Jack_Sparrow | scifiguy951 Speed what things up... in general.. turn off effects.. they can really slow down a system | 02:02 |
| nspryspartan | sorry well asmo how can i get it then? | 02:02 |
| stega | hey all | 02:02 |
| JRiZ | jenjen I just picked my connection from the frop down list in wifi-radar once and it saves it all and auto connects me. | 02:03 |

| Drk_Guy | Why Firestarter keeps on blocking connections to X port, if its supposed to be open? | 02:06 |

| glitsj16 | stega: did you install it via apt or via cpan ? not that i can explain the trouble you have but my experience is that the ubuntu packages work | 02:07 |
| gaintsura | jenjen: no worries, I had to go through the same thing with my system | 02:08 |
| stega | apt | 02:08 |
| stega | what packages do I need to install? | 02:08 |
| jenjen | ooooh | 02:08 |
| jrib | neeto: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RenameUSBDrive | 02:08 |
| stega | shouldn't it work right out the box? | 02:08 |
| neeto | jrib: thanks | 02:08 |
| jameslr | slayton: just mount the / partition from the other OS and copy the /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key to the corresponding directory. | 02:08 |
| dabbill | The background on my conky is shifted up some. Any one know of a way to fix this? | 02:08 |
| slayton | jameslr great! thanks | 02:08 |
| Drk_Guy | Why Firestarter keeps on blocking connections to X port, if its supposed to be open? | 02:08 |
| Drk_Guy | And why it says eht0 is not ready? | 02:08 |
| glitsj16 | stega: the naming schemes are different, but easy enough if you get the pattern, look for libio-..., there are quite a few in Synaptic | 02:08 |
| jameslr | slayton: they might be in a different location on RHEL. | 02:09 |
| jenjen | dabbill, have you checked the man page? | 02:09 |
| scifiguy951 | how can i speed my comp up with out doing physical changes | 02:09 |
| Travis3XL | exit | 02:09 |
| scifiguy951 | ?? | 02:09 |
| locohost | disable some processes | 02:09 |
| Travis3XL | XD | 02:09 |
| dabbill | jenjen, cant find any info on this problem | 02:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | scifiguy951 Speed what things up... in general.. turn off effects.. they can really slow down a system | 02:09 |
| jenjen | dabbill, post a screenshot somewhere so i can see what you are talking about please | 02:10 |
| jameslr | slayton: nope they're exactly the same location. So just copy the files over. ssh_host* | 02:10 |
| scifiguy951 | speed it up so things load faster mainly | 02:10 |
| asmo[B] | can I run gparted off the cd while in ubuntu already? | 02:10 |
| Jack_Sparrow | scifiguy951 how much ram do you have | 02:10 |
| jameslr | slayton: you'll need to remove any reference from your client machines that reference the old keys though...they're cached | 02:10 |
| Jack_Sparrow | asmo[B] yes | 02:10 |
| scifiguy951 | idk?? | 02:11 |
| slayton | jameslr, how do I do that? | 02:11 |
| pablo | buenas noches alguien de argentina? | 02:11 |
| jrib | !es | pablo | 02:11 |
| Jack_Sparrow | asmo[B] you mean form install os using cd as repo? | 02:11 |
| ubottu | pablo: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. | 02:11 |
| jameslr | slayton: if they're linux hosts then they're in ~/.ssh/known_hosts | 02:11 |
| scifiguy951 | how can i find out? | 02:11 |
| josspyker | Drk_Guy: pm me,this channel is so busy | 02:11 |
| asmo[B] | Jack_Sparrow: thanks, should've checked for a package first anyway | 02:11 |
| Jack_Sparrow | np | 02:11 |
| scifiguy951 | and how can make it so things such as torrent dl faster? | 02:11 |
| stega | glitsj16, is the while loop in perl to print default output once socket connects: while(<$sock>) { print $_; } ? | 02:11 |
| Jack_Sparrow | scifiguy951 you may have a network card that needs a tweek | 02:12 |
| slayton | jameslr, right ok... i've been doing that to ssh in anyway... every time i switch the OS I have to remove .ssh/known_hosts on other machines that want to connect | 02:12 |
| dabbill | jenjen, http://dabbill.no-ip.info/Pictures/Screenshot-7.png look at the top part of conky, the pic doesnt line up right | 02:12 |
| Mo853425ru37 | back | 02:12 |
| slayton | jameslr: but other then copying over those files in ubuntu I won't need to do any more local changes... | 02:12 |
| jameslr | slayton: nope | 02:12 |
| glitsj16 | stega: you assumed because i know how to install a perl lib that i know perl :) i only needed it for ssl support in checkgmail .. can't judge to be honest | 02:12 |
| slayton | jameslr: THANKYOU! | 02:12 |
| scifiguy951 | ??? | 02:13 |
| jameslr | slayton: you bet | 02:13 |
| stega | glitsj16, sorry =P thanks for the help | 02:13 |
| Jack_Sparrow | scifiguy951 for starters.. what exactly does lsb_release -a show you when typed in a terminal? | 02:13 |
| gaintsura | jenjen: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=800686 follow that to the T and you will be fine | 02:13 |
| jameslr | stega: what are you doing? | 02:13 |
| glitsj16 | stega: very welcome, hoped it knew perl though, goodluck with debugging your problems | 02:13 |
| Flannel | glitsj16: You know checkgmail is in the repos, right? | 02:13 |
| jenjen | thank you gaintsura | 02:13 |
| stega | jameslr, i'm just trying to make something that connects to a web server and prints out the response I can't get it working in ubuntu | 02:13 |
| gaintsura | certainly jenjen | 02:14 |
| stega | i can pastebin the source | 02:14 |
| glitsj16 | Flannel: yep, but without ssl support | 02:14 |
| slayton | does installing firestarer close ports? Or is firestart just a GUI frontend to the built in firewall? | 02:14 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !firewall | 02:14 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). | 02:14 |
| jameslr | stega: go ahead. I can take a look at it | 02:14 |
| Innopeor | Hi, i have need to know informations/descriptions about linux network interfaces, where i can find a guide? | 02:14 |

| prologic | Hi all. I'm a vision impaired user on Ubuntu 8.04, I'm using Compiz and the Enhanced Desktop zoom plugin for usability. I have a problem with font rendering though ( and rendering in general ). WHen zoomeing in a fair bit, text looks horrible and barely readable. How can I improve this ? | 02:16 |
| glitsj16 | Flannel: that's actually a problem in my opinion, how many users go through their logs to find that out ? checkgmail falls back to regular http so you won't notice .. you won't happen to know if and where one could 'report' or suggest to make that a dependency ? | 02:16 |
| dabbill | jenjen, do you see what i am talkin about? | 02:16 |
| SuperQ | prologic: You should be able to set more readable font sizes by default without need for zooming | 02:16 |
| Jack_Sparrow | scifiguy951 Thanks for not pasteing into the channel but next time please use the pastebin | 02:16 |
| Tonglebeak | hi, i have a question. i'm currently running gentoo, and got another hard drive that i have mounted and blah blah blah. anyways, i wanted to run the kubuntu install cd (mount -o loop) from gentoo (i can't seem to find any blank CDs), and thought i should be able to do this...but i'm not sure how to go about it. the slave hdd i installed today is where i want kubuntu to go...i have the cd mounted already...anyway of doing this? | 02:16 |
| scifiguy951 | how do i use it? | 02:17 |
| bazhang | !iso | 02:17 |
| ubottu | To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. | 02:17 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Tonglebeak common question.. but the answer is no | 02:17 |
| jrib | !install > Tonglebeak (read the private message from ubottu) | 02:17 |
| stega | jameslr, what do you think? | 02:17 |
| jrib | Tonglebeak: see if any of the methods there will work for you | 02:17 |
| jenjen | dabbill, it looks like it is getting run before the rest of the desktop finishes loading, try running it seperately or add a wait to the start script | 02:17 |

| bobbob1016 | I want to install Hardy on a thumb drive for a friend, I found this on the wiki https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent I'm not sure if I read it correctly, does that mean I can install on a thumb drive through the normal installer? | 02:18 |
| dabbill | jenjen, it starts doing it after a few days of the computer being up | 02:19 |
| dabbill | jenjen, i can kill conky and restart it all i want and it still does it till i reboot the computer | 02:19 |
| Jack_Sparrow | bobbob1016 persistent mode usually means you run live and changes to the setup are saved to the usb | 02:19 |
| prologic | Super: I tend to need everything zoomed. Not just fonts - or I'd stick with a framebuffer console :) (my colleages won't like that!) :) | 02:19 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !usb | 02:19 |

| bobbob1016 | Jack_Sparrow, I saw a few things there, but I wasn't sure if it meant you could go just from the thumb drive, thanks. | 02:20 |
| Jack_Sparrow | k | 02:20 |
| gaintsura | does anyone know if there is a firewall similar to Comodo? Comodo is open source, but not linux supported =( | 02:21 |
| Flannel | glitsj16: Well, https is supported in the Hardy version at least (its a depends) | 02:21 |
| lakis1982 | something else please ... can i play games of windows in linux .. i mean games like fifa , assassins creed , grand theft auto etc ... ??? | 02:21 |
| gallifrey | lakis1982, some games check out winehq.com | 02:21 |
| gaintsura | lakis1982: best way to do so is via wine or a virtual box | 02:22 |
| gallifrey | !wine | 02:22 |
| ubottu | WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility. | 02:22 |
| stega | Can someone please tell me why this doesn't work under Ubuntu? http://pastebin.com/d4581da34 | 02:22 |
| jameslr | stega: what exactly are you trying to do? just print the output of opening an http socket to google? | 02:22 |
| Omlette | Wine, yep. | 02:22 |
| gallifrey | !AppDB | lakis1982 | 02:22 |
| ubottu | lakis1982: The Wine Application DB is a database of applications and help for !Windows programs that run under !WINE: http://appdb.winehq.org | 02:22 |
| stega | jameslr, yes | 02:22 |
| stega | jameslr, the program just hangs =/ | 02:22 |
| glitsj16 | Flannel: checkgmail is written in perl and if the perl ssl lib is installed, it uses it, justed wanted to point that out, wans't holding you responsible personally :) | 02:22 |
| Jack_Sparrow | stega You should find a programming channel | 02:22 |
| Felonious | ok so if avidemux cannot open xvid/divx/mpeg what good is it? | 02:22 |

| lakis1982 | what is virtual box? | 02:23 |
| jenjen | dabbill, im not familiar enough with conky to really know, try posting on their forums or finding a conky related irc channel | 02:23 |
| SeaPhor | LordOllie, ty again! | 02:23 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !vbox | 02:23 |
| ubottu | virtualbox is a x86 !virtualizer. A !free edition is available in !Gutsy as 'virtualbox-ose'. A non-free edition is available at http://virtualbox.org for most Ubuntu releases (help in #vbox) - Setup details at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox | 02:23 |

| LordOllie | SeaPhor, no problem. I think I though I don't remember what I did. :( | 02:23 |

| martianlobster | can someone recommend a good book on learning ubuntu, and maybe debian? | 02:25 |
| dabbill | jenjen, NP atleast ya tried :) | 02:25 |
| SeaPhor | LordOllie, did fine on this box, but not for wife,,, she had to re-boot | 02:25 |

| LordOllie | SeaPhor, I normally ghost before registering a nick to kill off any other instances of myself. BitchX is nice like that though. | 02:26 |
| Vixus | hey, is there any reason why lspci isn't showing my wireless network card? | 02:27 |
| genii | Vixus: Perhaps it's USB? | 02:27 |
| Vixus | no, no, I definitely stuck it in there.. | 02:28 |
| SeaPhor | LordOllie, cool, i'll keep that in mind, TY again (i use xchat, yeah...its easy) | 02:28 |
| LordOllie | Vixus, it is not pci | 02:28 |
| mib_b6hjoi | Howdy! I've got a GRUB question. How do I configure boot so that, instead of booting to GNOME, Ubuntu starts up sans splash screen and dumps me to a tty? | 02:28 |
| Vixus | i'm sure it is. | 02:28 |
| LordOllie | oops too slow on the guess | 02:28 |
| mib_b6hjoi | Also, how do I get GRUB to dump me in a tty with a custom resolution (1024x600)? | 02:28 |
| SeaPhor | Vixus, try lshw -C network | 02:29 |
| Vixus | i have a belkin usb wireless dongle connected too but no luck there.. | 02:29 |
| LordOllie | did you lsusb ? | 02:29 |
| Vixus | no.. i wasn't really into it to be honest.. | 02:29 |
| Vixus | it's ubuntu studio and i was wondering whether to switch to 64 studio instead.. | 02:30 |

| Stage3 | Flynsarmy, can add a file to /etc/cron.d/ directory too | 02:32 |
| jameslr | mib_b6hjoi: do you always want to boot to command line? | 02:32 |
| IndyGunFreak | gaintsura: any joy? | 02:32 |
| mib_b6hjoi | jameslr: Not permanently--I'd like GUI to be an option | 02:32 |
| Flynsarmy | Stage3: If i do crontab -e how do i add a line? It doesn't work like nano | 02:32 |
| gaintsura | IndyGunFreak: so far so good... seems to be running decently, not lagging or anything | 02:32 |
| IndyGunFreak | gaintsura: so you actually got installed? | 02:33 |
| mib_b6hjoi | jameslr: For the next few days I'll be using it primarily as a console, and I'd like a nice resolution | 02:33 |
| gaintsura | IndyGunFreak: ??? | 02:33 |
| mib_b6hjoi | jameslr: And fonts, too--but that's my next goal :-) | 02:33 |
| Stage3 | Flynsarmy, I preffer to edit with nano and add the file to that directory | 02:33 |
| IndyGunFreak | gaintsura: weren't you having the issue that you couldn't get installed, because the partitioner didn't see the hard drive? | 02:33 |
| gaintsura | IndyGunFreak: nope | 02:33 |
| gaintsura | wasnt me | 02:33 |
| gaintsura | I was just having X lockups | 02:34 |

| IndyGunFreak | gaintsura: sorry, confused youl... | 02:34 |
| gaintsura | lol again | 02:34 |
| Stage3 | Flynsarmy, crontab file.txt too | 02:34 |
| Flynsarmy | Stage3: Thtat'll add a new one? | 02:34 |
| gaintsura | IndyGunFreak: could you recommend a good firewall for ubuntu thats similar to Comodo Firewall? | 02:34 |
| lockd | mib_b6hjoi: that's nothing to do with GRUB | 02:34 |
| gaintsura | I'm not digging iptables/firestarter | 02:34 |
| IndyGunFreak | gaintsura: i don't like software firewalls, never have used one, even on windoze | 02:35 |
| Stage3 | Flynsarmy, do this: crontab -l >> file.txt | 02:35 |
| IndyGunFreak | gaintsura: i just properly confiugure a hardware firewall, and trust it. | 02:35 |
| gaintsura | IndyGunFreak: if I could, I would =) | 02:35 |
| Stage3 | Flynsarmy, then add the new line to the end | 02:35 |
| SeaPhor | i want to install text-based browser elinks (i think) and all its dependencies, but cant remember the flag to do the dependencies,,, | 02:35 |

| klikz | nope did initially but figured it out | 02:36 |
| psych | whats venkman ? | 02:36 |
| Stage3 | Flynsarmy, nex do this crontab file.txt | 02:36 |
| klikz | no problems with dual monitors any more | 02:36 |
| lockd | mib_b6hjoi: and then you don't want the Desktop Manager to start, correct? | 02:36 |

| shingen | I thought VNC stood for virtual network computing :P | 02:42 |
| lockd | mib_b6hjoi: that'll let you disable GDM, then you just have to add vga=[option] to the kernel | 02:42 |
| gaintsura | omg... help me turn off system beep *kicks it* its disabled and still beeping | 02:42 |
| shingen | and VNC is like Remote Desktop :) | 02:43 |
| todd | Ahadiel: OK, so how do I set up my VNC so windows remote desktop can connect? | 02:43 |
| mib_b6hjoi | lockd: Where do I find those VGA options for my specific resolution (1024x600)? | 02:43 |
| shingen | todd: You download a VNC client to connect to your VNC server... it's not REMOTE DESKTOP | 02:43 |

| clintchance | LOL | 02:46 |
| shingen | todd: what machine are you trying to remotely control and what OS? | 02:46 |
| clintchance | ubuntu has an irc for everything | 02:46 |
| jameslr | shingen: you're not going to be able to use the RDP protocol in linux I don't think. VNC is pretty much your only option | 02:46 |
| gaintsura | thanks again jameslr | 02:46 |
| lockd | mib_b6hjoi: you could try 1024x768 and if not go back to 800x600 | 02:46 |
| Ahadiel | todd, Get TIGHTVNC VIEWER | 02:46 |
| m_newton | I have to go now. Be right back. like whenever i am free. Ya, soo a ok. This is a custompized message, that is why it is so long. I will see You later. On irc. Hopefully. | 02:46 |
| jameslr | gaintsura: sure thing | 02:46 |
| blankhead | why is it that the backward and forward buttons only work in firefox and not in the gnome/nautilus or anywhere else in the system? | 02:47 |
| gaintsura | anyone know of a guide/ tutorial for setting up iptables/firestarter I've just disabled it because I have so many problems with it | 02:47 |
| shingen | jameslr: true, you cannot run RDP on *nix, that's for sure | 02:47 |
| todd | shingen: I am trying to allow a WinXP machine "I dont control" to connect to my Ubuntu8 pc | 02:47 |
| blankhead | and i mean for the mouse | 02:47 |
| mib_b6hjoi | lockd: This is a subnotebook with a ~9" screen--I don't think it can take a 1024x768 resolution | 02:47 |
| lockd | mib_b6hjoi: those you can find by searching for "grub vga table" | 02:47 |
| jameslr | shingen: so use the correct verbage. You don't want to remote desktop to a linux machine. You want to VNC to a linux machine from Windows. | 02:47 |
| shingen | todd: you'll need to install a vnc client on the windowsxp machine | 02:47 |
| mody | mody_home | 02:48 |
| Stage3 | gaintsura, the iptables tutoria is so good http://iptables-tutorial.frozentux.net/iptables-tutorial.html | 02:48 |
| gaintsura | thanks Stage3 | 02:48 |
| shingen | jameslr: so what did I say? :P | 02:48 |
| klikz | is iptables truly hardware firewall | 02:48 |
| clintchance | IdleOne on one will answer | 02:48 |
| gaintsura | klikz: not really | 02:48 |
| mib_b6hjoi | lockd: OK, 1024x600 doesn't seem to be supported. Anything else just looks distorted. | 02:49 |
| lockd | mib_b6hjoi: I just use maximized terminal in X | 02:49 |
| IdleOne | clintchance, patience is a virtue | 02:49 |
| todd | shingen: OK, they have "Windows Remote Desktop" installed, thats all I can get though, the ubuntu side is wide open though | 02:49 |
| jameslr | shingen: I think I started talking to the wrong person lol | 02:49 |
| glitsj16 | klikz: iptables isn't a hardware firewall, just a damn good software one | 02:49 |
| mib_b6hjoi | lockd: I've seen something about a vesa-framebuffer--would that do it? | 02:49 |
| klikz | yes | 02:49 |
| klikz | agreed | 02:49 |
| jameslr | shingen: I think I was directing toward todd using your nick :/ | 02:49 |
| lockd | mib_b6hjoi: probably not | 02:49 |
| mib_b6hjoi | lockd: I'd use a maximized terminal in X, but I want to maximize my battery life for an extended amount of time where I won't have access to a charger | 02:49 |

| todd | jameslr: what? | 02:50 |
| klikz | anyone using ubuntu server in a production environment | 02:50 |
| jameslr | todd: nothing :) | 02:50 |
| SeaPhor | todd, RDP is a MS Windows service,,,,, not gonna happen on a linux box,,, windows box will have to use other client, as Ahadiel has been trying to tell you | 02:50 |
| shingen | todd: Ubuntu uses VNC for remote control. Enabling Windows XP's remote desktop won't do crap for you, if you want to remotely control the Ubuntu server. | 02:50 |
| blankhead_ | why does the backward and forward button on the mouse only work in firefox and not nowhere else in the ubuntu system.. in 7.04 and 7.10 they didnt work at all now in hardy they only work for firefox is there a way to fix this? | 02:51 |

| shelbyscates | yeah i didnt think so | 02:52 |
| shingen | There is NO *nix RDP server... it's 100% microsoft proprietary | 02:52 |
| shelbyscates | i have been shamed | 02:53 |
| shingen | actually citrix proprietary :) | 02:53 |
| todd | shingen: OK then we are on differant pages, what do I have to install on ubuntu to allow a XP machine to "Windows Remote Destop" in? | 02:53 |

| shingen | todd: do you understand the concept of client-server architecture? | 02:54 |
| SeaPhor | todd, nor any of the dependencies that any of those services need, just have the windows boxes get the client that Ahadiel has been telling you | 02:55 |
| mib_b6hjoi | re RDP: http://xrdp.sourceforge.net/ | 02:55 |
| darthanubis | which kernel are you guys using "generic or rt"? | 02:55 |
| todd | shingen: yes, I want an XP client, and a ubuntu server | 02:55 |
| shingen | todd: you have a server hosting stuff (e.g. web server) and you have a client that browses the content. | 02:55 |
| indra | generic | 02:55 |
| indra | new hardy | 02:55 |
| shingen | todd: you don't understand the concept of client / server relationships... XP can be a server and a client at the same time :P | 02:55 |

| Sn3ipen | how can i add a ftp client to lampp? like i had in xampp? | 02:56 |
| todd | shingen: no I get that, I dont understand why ubuntu does not have a "windows remote desktop" server | 02:56 |
| shingen | todd: when you're running RDP on your windows XP box, you're running an RDP SERVICE, for clients to connnect TO | 02:56 |
| shingen | todd: because bill gates is a greedy sonuvabitch and he won't license the technology out :P | 02:56 |
| Ahadiel | todd, Because RDP is lame and you should use VNC instead. | 02:56 |
| SeaPhor | shingen, but does that go both ways, he wants xp box to control a linux box?, not the other way? | 02:56 |
| darthanubis | is there a webpage where I can read on that? | 02:56 |
| Flannel | Sn3ipen: there's a number of ftp servers you can install, but: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/ftp-server.html | 02:56 |
| jameslr | todd: because "ubuntu" would have to reverse engineer the RDP protocol to create said service... | 02:56 |
| IdleOne | todd, because bill gates is a cheap tight arse and does not like to share | 02:56 |
| todd | shingen: no I want my XP box to connect to the ubuntu server, you have it backwards | 02:57 |
| shingen | SeaPhor: I have no idea what he wants because he doesn't quite understand client / server relationships :P | 02:57 |
| Sn3ipen | Flannel: Thanks il try that | 02:57 |
| SeaPhor | shingen, yes, i'm with you there | 02:57 |
| Ahadiel | todd, I believe YOU have it backwards sir. | 02:57 |
| shingen | todd: You have two choices... install VNC Client on XP... or isntall RDP client on Ubuntu | 02:57 |
| todd | shingen: so there is no RDP server in ubuntu, I mean that has been around a while??? | 02:57 |
| shingen | todd: do both and you won't be hurting :P | 02:57 |

| Ahadiel | todd, Just google "tightvnc viewer" | 02:59 |
| mib_b6hjoi | todd: Read this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Client-server | 02:59 |
| IdleOne | mib_b6hjoi, yes but is it legal? | 03:00 |
| SeaPhor | I finally have working FTP,,, yea me, lol | 03:00 |
| shingen | www.ultravnc.com is the client I prefer | 03:00 |
| jameslr | I prefer: ssh | 03:00 |
| indra | me to | 03:00 |
| shingen | it also allows you to use windows domain groups when you install the server/client software on 100% windows machines | 03:00 |
| mib_b6hjoi | mib_b6hjoi: Black-box reverse engineering is legal. I haven't looked into what this is--just a quick Google search | 03:00 |

| shingen | I prefer rshell :P | 03:00 |
| todd | ok what is xrdp??? | 03:00 |
| shingen | hahaha | 03:00 |
| Berzerker | Hardy or Gutsy, whcih is better | 03:01 |

| shingen | you can install ssh on windoze using cygwin | 03:02 |
| SeaPhor | theres TIGHTVNC VIEWER | 03:02 |
| todd | shingen: its not a fully functional Linux terminal server, capable of accepting connections from rdesktop and Microsoft's own terminal server / remote desktop clients??? | 03:02 |
| mib_b6hjoi | shingen: PuTTY | 03:02 |
| shingen | todd: NO | 03:02 |
| indra | yes | 03:02 |

| jameslr | todd: RDP and VNC do not play together. | 03:02 |
| KyleK | hrm i thought dist-upgrade upgraded to a newer version of the distro | 03:03 |
| indra | for ssh | 03:03 |
| SeaPhor | theres TIGHTVNC VIEWER for windows | 03:03 |
| todd | shingen: could you take a look at http://xrdp.sourceforge.net/ caus thats what they are claiming...???? | 03:03 |

| shingen | todd: no they're not, they're saying for you to download a windows VNC viewer... tightvnc client or ultravnc client will work just fine | 03:03 |
| mib_b6hjoi | shingen: Oh, OK | 03:03 |
| todd | shingen: ok checking out ightvnc, but that sucks | 03:04 |

| jameslr | todd: why are you so hung up on the terminal service client? | 03:04 |
| jameslr | todd: would you use a fork to eat soup as well as salad? | 03:05 |
| todd | jameslr: cause the XP boxes are not my boxes, I can ask, but they can say no thanks, its a hard sell | 03:05 |
| shingen | todd: VNC does everything RDP does except for sound | 03:05 |

| Wootie | Can I somehow in linux restart and have all my currently open windows be opened again when i log back in ? | 03:41 |
| Wootie | (im on ubuntu) | 03:41 |
| glitsj16 | witakr: yes gedit will do just fine, but it will need root permissions in this case | 03:41 |
| yell0w_ | Wootie: what open windows ? | 03:41 |
| gaintsura | Wootie: see sessions under preferences | 03:41 |
| rjonesx | i see a forum post on ubuntu trying to answer some questions about installing a bluetooth usb adapter and the response is to use hciconfig run hcitools scan, etc... but I have no idea wtf hcitools is | 03:41 |
| unavailable | erpo basically every time you update your linux kernel, (because virtual box runs off of a specific kernel) you need to recompile the module | 03:41 |
| scribawf | ubuntu 8.04. I recently have failure of Software Sources configuration failing to load, how do I fix this? | 03:42 |
| Wootie | thx | 03:42 |
| Wootie | :D | 03:42 |
| elspeth | please? | 03:43 |
| KyleK | To fully ugprade, please restart lol | 03:43 |
| unavailable | erpo you get it done? | 03:43 |
| glitsj16 | witakr: if you need some guidance, ask away .. look for that duplicate line, comment one out by putting # in front of it and save the file, that should fix it | 03:43 |
| erpo | unavailable: Ok. I'm on the configuration screen. | 03:43 |
| unavailable | click next | 03:43 |
| erpo | unavailable: When I select configure from the Package menu, the status bar changes to "Starting package configuration tool..." and then nothing new happens. | 03:44 |
| afallenhope | Due to kernel updates... my modules are currently not working. I was wondering... if there's a way of importing them from an old kernel to the new one? | 03:44 |
| eureka | I don't think it's going to be that fast to have a deb package for Firefox, but I might be wrong. Is there one? | 03:44 |
| erpo | afallenhope: Which module? | 03:44 |
| unavailable | erpo it doesnt ask for your password? | 03:44 |
| Flannel | eureka: Firefox 3 is in the repos, yes. Btu some mirrors are slower than others. | 03:44 |
| witakr | well the find feature for gedit is taking forever | 03:44 |
| afallenhope | erpo: umm my b43 and my rt73 as well as my webcam one | 03:44 |
| df001 | Is anyone having a problem with their screen flickering black really quick sometimes in GTK apps, like firefox? | 03:44 |
| jrib | eureka: the release is the same as RC3 | 03:44 |
| rjonesx | so no idea on what hcitools is? | 03:44 |
| m1r | morning | 03:44 |
| df001 | I disabled the X Damage extension, which fixes it | 03:44 |
| unavailable | afallenhope erpo you have to recompile certian modules when you update the kernel | 03:45 |
| df001 | if I turn it on, it starts flickering. | 03:45 |
| glitsj16 | afallenhope: i'm afraid you will have to rebuild those with the new kernel | 03:45 |
| unavailable | erpo so still nothing? | 03:45 |
| df001 | This started happening like a week ago, when i let ubuntu do a bunch of updates and i put in another 2 gigs of ram | 03:45 |
| elspeth | please, i would really like a hand with this keyring issue. Or a shove in the right direction, that would work too. | 03:45 |

| afallenhope | is there a way of ignoring kernel updates unless they're security updates. | 03:46 |
| eureka | Does this mean I can upgrade my Firefox to 3.0 using apt-get after the updates the repos? | 03:46 |
| witakr | cant find that line in that file | 03:46 |
| unavailable | someone should make a script that detects kernel reliant modules and recompiles them after a kernel upgrade | 03:46 |
| zhj | .. | 03:47 |
| shazzam | ok so i installed ubuntu onto my external hard drive, but when i try to boot off my hard drive it says no partition exists? | 03:47 |
| afallenhope | unavailable: I agree 100% | 03:47 |
| elspeth | unavailable: that would be really useful. | 03:47 |
| glitsj16 | witakr: could you copy/paste your file to paste.ubuntu.com and give us the url, we can take a look | 03:47 |
| Flannel | elspeth: `/usr/lib/libpam-keyring/pam-keyring-tool -c` should allow you to set a new keyring passwrd | 03:47 |
| erpo | afallenhope: Are those in the mainline kernel? | 03:47 |
| gaintsura | unavailable: thats a great idea, but thats a lot of modules | 03:47 |
| shazzam | but i made a small partition for ubuntu? i left the rest for devs/sda or whatever... | 03:47 |
| Drk_Guy | Is there a way to stop compiz w/o losing my pref's? | 03:47 |
| witakr | ha!.... ok... sure | 03:47 |
| Flannel | eureka: Yes. And if your mirror doesn't have it yet, it should in a day or two. | 03:47 |
| edoram32mb | using sudo aptitude upgrade && aptitude dist-update it automatically upgraded firefox 3 today.. | 03:47 |
| afallenhope | erpo: dunno. I just made them myself. lol. well the b43 is the b43 driver.. I just recompiled it | 03:47 |
| unavailable | ill ask the guys at #linux | 03:48 |
| edoram32mb | so it should work | 03:48 |
| SeaPhor | shazzam, you may have to edit bios to boot from external | 03:48 |
| shazzam | by doin what/ | 03:48 |
| erpo | afallenhope: See if you can get them from packages in the repos. Then they'll be updated when your kernel updates. Compiling your own kernel modules is a recipe for disaster. | 03:48 |
| RabidWeezle | Fatman still here? | 03:48 |
| erpo | Drk_Guy: metacity --replace ? | 03:48 |

| RabidWeezle | Who helped fatman on the stupid photobucket DNS issue? | 03:49 |
| Flannel | elspeth: Hmm, install the libpam-keyring package | 03:49 |
| erpo | afallenhope: Yeah, but you have to do it all over again each time you update your kernel. That's what I mean. | 03:49 |
| gaintsura | erpo: that reminds me of back in the day when packages for supported distros were few and far between | 03:50 |
| afallenhope | okay | 03:50 |
| elspeth | Flannel: hrm, get libpam-gnome-keyring already newest version | 03:50 |
| afallenhope | rebooting them | 03:50 |
| afallenhope | then* | 03:50 |
| elspeth | Flannel: when i do apt-get install libpam-keyring | 03:50 |

| Quintin | ^ what gives?? | 03:52 |
| elspeth | Flannel: looking at /usr/lib, there doesn't appear to be anything resembling that either, except gnome-keyring, and all that's got in it is gnome-keyring-ask, not pam-keyring-tool | 03:53 |
| erpo | afallenhope: Going to use the old kernel? | 03:53 |
| gaintsura | I'm out, goodnight all | 03:53 |
| unavailable | affellenhope erpo gentoo keeps a list of all your installed modules and recompiles them when you update your kernel | 03:53 |
| Flannel | elspeth: Right, its not there on newer versions. Check out either admin or preferences menus for a "keyring manager" | 03:53 |
| RabidWeezle | according to photobucket's site, they got hacked, and in order to see photobucket again you need to in windows type in ipconfig /flushdns, is there a way to flush the dns in linux? | 03:53 |

| witakr | the file is too big to paste in to the pastebin | 03:54 |
| edoram32mb | thanks | 03:54 |
| elspeth | Flannel: which is not my user password, and i don't have a clue what it could possibly be. | 03:54 |
| Flannel | elspeth: That'll be your sudo password | 03:54 |
| elspeth | Flannel: that's what i thought - it isn't, though. | 03:54 |
| RabidWeezle | KyleK, basically, my inlaw's visited photobucket when it was being hacked, and they can't access it now | 03:55 |
| glitsj16 | witakr: hehe, no problem, can i pm you and try an alternative route ? | 03:55 |
| KyleK | ah | 03:55 |

| afabian | Millertime_018: Probably best to just wait. You could just download it off of the firefox website and install it like not part of your distribution, but it'll get you a few days usage of the final release before it hits the official repositories, and you've already got a release candidate. I plan to just wait. | 04:05 |

| afabian | Gun_Smoke: I get the general feeling that Ubuntu values their time-based release schedule pretty highly, perhaps at the expense of release quality. I don't really plan to do any more upgrades at release date. The user-base is large enough that I expect a release will be pretty solid 6 months after its release. ;) | 04:14 |

| nickrud | archie depending on your mirror and how often it updates, could be another day or so. You could try another mirror | 04:17 |
| afabian | archie: You're already running a pretty solid release candidate. I doubt you'll even notice the difference if you don't check version numbers. | 04:17 |
| archie | how do I do it? | 04:17 |
| Scunizi | archie: 10 at the most :) | 04:17 |
| archie | sudo apt-get install firefox3 | 04:17 |
| witakr | and my question was valid, but in the wrong place | 04:18 |
| Flannel | archie: Which mirror are you using? | 04:18 |
| archie | I have no idea | 04:18 |
| Gun_Smoke | I've never needed a tablet of paper to keep track of things that need a bug report.. I just am starting to feel that the release dates are more important then what is released.... I started way back when this channel was 300-400... | 04:18 |
| archie | Where are the available mirrors? | 04:19 |
| archie | Whenever I install stuff I just do it from terminal with a sudo apt-get install packagename | 04:19 |
| Scunizi | archie: you'll have the icon by the clock when the mirror are updated.. the icon represents all kinds of updates to your computer.. | 04:19 |
| Flannel | archie: Have you updated today? | 04:19 |
| archie | haha | 04:19 |
| archie | 171 available! | 04:19 |
| Scunizi | archie.. there you go! sudo apt-get update .. sudo apt-get upgrade.. | 04:19 |
| archie | Firefox is listed | 04:20 |
| archie | I'm going to upgrade | 04:20 |
| archie | This is Firefox RC1? | 04:20 |
| archie | What's RC | 04:20 |
| archie | release candidate? | 04:20 |
| kcormier | yea rc = release candidate | 04:20 |

| archie | Opera doesn't like to show all hte images in a page? | 04:21 |
| afabian | Gun_Smoke: It's tricky. Debian has the "when it's ready" policy, and resulting release cycle left open a huge spot for a distribution like Ubuntu. I think time-based releases are important, because users use releases, it creates a sense of urgency to fix show-stopper bugs, etc. I've thought a lot about this--I think time-based releases and sticking very close to the schedule are the way to go, even if it's a little painful. | 04:21 |
| archie | It's weird | 04:21 |

| moosah | Hi I have a Gateway C140XL with ATI mobility radeon 2300 HD and I was trying to install Kubuntu KDE4 remix and the CD loads and everything... it even shows me the text right before it tries to start X but then nothing happens.. what could be wrong and how do I fix it? | 04:23 |
| Gun_Smoke | please don't ask | 04:23 |
| erpo | jrib: Can't I instruct the package manager to only fetch that one package from the repository? | 04:23 |
| jrib | erpo: yes | 04:23 |
| Gun_Smoke | erpo, yes aptitude works wonders | 04:23 |
| jrib | erpo: sudo apt-get install PACKAGE_NAME is one way | 04:23 |
| apollo2011 | I have just setup a webserer on 8.04 that hosts Clutch. I can access it perfectly on my LAN, but I cannot access it using my external IP Address. I have set up apache serers before and accessed them externally, just not with this new 2wire router I have. The port forwarding seems to be set up right, but its not working. Is it possible the default settings on apache are bloking the connections from the external ip address? | 04:24 |
| Gun_Smoke | erpo, what jrib said is slick too | 04:24 |
| erpo | jrib: What I mean is, it should only ever fetch that one package from that repo, so I can leave it enabled during updates. | 04:24 |
| flouge1 | so i upgraded ubuntu | 04:25 |
| flouge1 | and now it wont boot | 04:25 |
| flouge1 | i get to the grub screen | 04:25 |

| kcormier | Hey guys. I'm using vlc to play dvd iso's off my media server but apparently on linux vlc doesn't use the video card acceleration for dvd playback and my processor just can't keep up with the dvd at 1080p resolutions. Anyone have a better option with other software to store videos and play the back at 1080p resolution with video hardware acceleration? | 04:29 |
| tom_ | hey, does Ubuntu have a package for the linux 2.6.25 kernel for hardy? | 04:29 |

| Gun_Smoke | My eyes are tired... slow down with the junk please.... | 04:30 |
| Colin_ | !tab | 04:30 |
| ubottu | You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 04:30 |
| afabian | teamz: you could just do tar + gzip and use the traditional UNIX utility "split" to split the file, and put it back together with cat. | 04:30 |
| amenado | Colin_-> set you eth0 to acquire the ip address from your ISP via your dsl modem | 04:31 |
| tom_ | teamz: you can use file-roller in the terminal | 04:31 |
| apollo2011 | amenado: just port 80 right now, I tried that earlier and it didn't help | 04:31 |
| Toba_ | hi guys | 04:31 |
| tom_ | teamz: see file-roller --help | 04:31 |
| teamz | tom_, ok thx but as you said I'm unsure if file-roller support that | 04:31 |
| tom_ | I'm pretty sure it does | 04:31 |
| tom_ | just try it out | 04:31 |
| teamz | afabian, problem is I have a box with a newbie and he needs to archive his files remotely | 04:31 |
| Toba_ | any reason that ubuntu 8.04's nm-applet would not show wifi stuff anymore on the dropdown? | 04:31 |
| glitsj16 | teamz: i think p7zip-full with p7zip-rar can handle those, p7zip contains 7za, a pure terminal tool | 04:31 |

| apollo2011 | amenado: from what I am reading now, it appears that the problem may be that at&t blocks port 80. Is it possible to use a different port and still have it work when I use a domain from DynDNS? | 04:32 |
| Colin_ | how do you reply to someone | 04:32 |
| Colin_ | i dont get it | 04:32 |
| amenado | apollo2011-> you should allow Allow all applications (DMZplus mode) -- pointing to your server and then make sure you firewall is active and working on your server | 04:32 |
| tom_ | is the 2.6.25 kernel in any of hardy's repos? | 04:32 |
| flouge1 | shit im going to have to upgrade the bios | 04:32 |
| Gun_Smoke | Colin_, in what? | 04:32 |
| amenado | apollo2011-> it does not block port 80 | 04:33 |
| genii | Quentusrex: It's more of a hardware issue. If your soundcard has digital out and it works, then you get an adapter to hdmi for it. Sometimes you can get a dvi-to-hdmi that also has a jack to plug in your digital audio from the computer as well. | 04:33 |
| amenado | Colin_-> you type the first few chars of my nick then press tab | 04:33 |
| glitsj16 | flouge1: have you gone over your /boot/grub/menu.lst manually to check if there's something out of the ordinary ? | 04:33 |

| Colin_ | amenado, ok gotcha.. eth0 is connected to my internal lan, eth1 is connected to my dsl modem... in my /etc/network/interfaces file eth0 is fine and is in fact giving giving out addresses to the rest of the network just fine, eth1 however doesn't even show up on a regular ifconfig | 04:34 |
| shade34321 | shadda | 04:35 |
| shade34321 | madda | 04:35 |
| afabian | flouge1: Be careful upgrading the BIOS. Don't, um, lose power in the middle. Heh. If the upgrade is decent, it won't let you use the wrong upgrade.. .but I wouldn't trust it to catch mistakes. Be very careful that you know that the BIOS upgrade is the right one before you try flashing. It's a mildly risky thing all around, and care is called for. | 04:35 |
| amenado | Colin_-> then fix your eth1 to make sure you can activate it, then also on same interfaces file, you can tell it to use dhcp to acquire ip from ISP | 04:35 |
| Colin_ | amenado, and it is set up simply like this iface eth1 inet dhcp | 04:35 |

| kcormier | Gun_Smoke: video plays fine if it's a small window but when i maximize it my processor jumps straight to 100% and the video gets choppy. It will play fine at lower resolutions. If I turn deinterlacing on it gets even worse. You said you don't think it's the processor, any other ideas? | 04:35 |
| tom_ | is the 2.6.25 kernel in any of hardy's repos? | 04:36 |

| Starnestommy | tom_: I don't think so | 04:36 |
| amenado | Colin_-> ifdown eth1; ifup eth1 as root off course | 04:37 |

| tom_ | its either my wireless card or the kernel thats causing these crashes. | 04:38 |
| harriseldon | tom_ what messages in dmesg convince you that it is a kernel issue? | 04:38 |
| flouge1 | damnit the image is to big | 04:39 |
| flouge1 | for the bios to load | 04:39 |
| schmitty | i was making some changes and now all inactive windows fade transparent which i don't want. I can't where to correct this. Does anyone know how? Is there maybe a way that i can reset everything? | 04:39 |
| Colin_ | amenado, then repeats to interval 12, interval 18, etc.. then it says No DHCPOFFERS received, No working leases in persistent database - sleeping. | 04:39 |
| tom_ | harriseldon: dmesg? none. I checked the system logs though and nothing shows, thats the weird part | 04:39 |
| glitsj16 | schmitty: seems like your window manager got stuck, which one do you use ? | 04:39 |
| Gun_Smoke | kcormier, even piping the movie over via ssh to this laptop keeps the processor at nill to nothing... | 04:39 |
| kcormier | Gun_Smoke: Have you run it at 1920x1080 with blend deinterlacing before with anything comparable to an athlon 64 3000+? I love vlc, been using it for years. But apparently the mpeg4 decoder will only run on a single core (doesn't matter much for me as i've only got one) and that it won't use the video acceleration in anything but windows. | 04:39 |
| schmitty | im using kubuntu glitsj16 | 04:39 |

| anachronist | but can someone explain to me what this is doing and why i have to do it? | 04:40 |
| afabian | tom_: 2.6.24 is pretty stable. I'd be pretty hesitant to finger the kernel as the problem. I'd probably try testing the memory. | 04:40 |
| amenado | Colin_-> your cat 5 cable to your router/dslmodem is faulty..find another good cable | 04:40 |
| tom_ | harriseldon: I looked at some bug reports and it seems that many people are having problems with 2.6.24 | 04:40 |
| Gun_Smoke | kcormier, amd64 here... nothing ever like you state | 04:40 |
| schmitty | im pretty sure it's a setting that i have changed. I just need to change it back. i was trying to make windows transparent at one point but now it is taking too much system resources to do it so i want it of | 04:40 |

| flouge1 | how do i tell grub to use the old boot | 04:41 |
| harriseldon | tom_ you can always download vanilla sources and compile your own if you are convinced. Just be sure to keep grub entries for your old kernel just in case | 04:41 |
| genii | Quixotic: The short answer is yes | 04:41 |
| === jeje is now known as broy | ||
| afabian | tom_: Ah. Well, then.. 2.6.25 will probably never be in hardy. There are a few possibilities... I don't know how development is going, but you could manually fetch out a .deb from the repositories for the next ubuntu... there are also instructions around for compiling a kernel the "debian way" out there. | 04:42 |
| Quixotic | genii, does it get difficult or any tricks I should be aware of ? I was thinking dropping it in a usb enclosure and plugging it into my ubuntu install then hoping to mount it and copy the files to my desktop. | 04:42 |
| glitsj16 | schmitty: if you have a backup of your compiz settings, you can try reinstalling the ccsm, that way it will fall back to the defaults | 04:42 |
| broy | HELP!!! | 04:42 |
| tom_ | harriseldon: I just tried downloading the sources, I've never really compiled my own kernel before though. Can you guys link me to some tutorials? | 04:42 |

| TuXNuBGuy | first time ubuntu user | 04:42 |
| Gun_Smoke | kcormier, I look into either what else you have up and running while trying to launch VLC.. Look at everything.. Maybe thats a bug to file.. But here I've never seen or heard anything like it... Have you tried Mplayer? Still my favorite. | 04:43 |
| glitsj16 | schmitty: menu items in kubuntu could be very different, but from terminal you could try ccsm | 04:43 |
| genii | Quixotic: You will need the hsfutils and possibly hsfplus packages. The kernel module is called hsf | 04:43 |
| broy | i can't install my acer 4520 wifi driver. | 04:43 |
| AutumnCat | tom_: if you want to use a 1.6.25 kernel, you have to compile it yourself . | 04:43 |
| afabian | tom_: I don't think so. I'm just assuming there are .debs in the repository, but i actually don't know, because I've never tried anything like that with Ubuntu. | 04:43 |
| broy | can anyone help me | 04:43 |
| AutumnCat | tom_: just like me ;D | 04:43 |

| Quixotic | genii, I found the hfsutils package in the package manager. With that I should be ok then ? | 04:45 |
| amenado | Quixotic-> mac uses hfs filesystem? so make sure your ubuntu supports that .. | 04:45 |
| genii | Quixotic: Oldie but goodie and still relevent: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-users/2005-January/019105.html | 04:46 |
| afabian | tom_: 2.6.24 to 2.6.25 is a minor upgrade. You'll want to make sure that you use the /boot/config-2.6.24-18-generic file as .config in your linux kernel source directory and then make config ... answer the new questions, pretty safe to just hold down the enter key and take the defaults. I'd try building it the "debian way" so that grub is automatically updated and things. | 04:46 |

| AutumnCat | tom_: I download the tarballs and the patch files, because git is too slow here. | 04:47 |
| Gun_Smoke | they all work just fine. | 04:47 |
| Quixotic | thanks genii and amendao, I will install hfsutils and give it a go. Wish me luck or my friend is going to cry in the morning when I tell him his quickbooks is lost forever. | 04:47 |
| lockd | anachronist: I've had little quirky things like USB mouse not even being detected, I was only able to fix it with an adapter | 04:47 |
| tom_ | AutumnCat: With the patch files, what exactly are they? Are they only used if you need specific hardware support? | 04:47 |
| anachronist | lockd, i'm having some trouble w/ my external hard drive. i can't get it to run in usb 2.0. i had to modprobe -r ehci_hcd to force it to run at 1.1. i found a kernel option that i'm going to try after i finish copying some files | 04:47 |
| glitsj16 | schmitty: i thought you had that installed ? if not than it's caused by kubuntu's window manager, i don't know which one that is in a default kubuntu setup | 04:47 |
| genii | Quixotic: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=392287 may also be of some help | 04:47 |
| AutumnCat | tom_: no | 04:47 |
| anachronist | but i'm curious to know first, what the issue is, and second, what the acpi=noirq kernel option does | 04:48 |
| afabian | tom_: If you build a kernel the "debian way", you end up with a nice .deb file that installs just like one from the repositories. Just more work. heh. | 04:48 |
| tom_ | afabian: yeah I know, I'm looking at that right now | 04:48 |
| AutumnCat | tom_: I mean the "version patch" | 04:48 |
| schmitty | glitsj16: no it's just the one that comes with the default kde install | 04:48 |
| amenado | anachronist-> Boot Arguments to Control PCI Bus Behaviour (`pci=') | 04:48 |
| lockd | anachronist: it says usb 2.0 is in kernel >= 2.5.2, amazing that it wouldn't work | 04:49 |
| AutumnCat | tom_: linux-2.6.25.tar.bz2 + patch-2.6.25.6.bz2 = linux-2.6.25.6 | 04:49 |
| schmitty | i just need to find the tab that i should go to to change it | 04:49 |
| anachronist | well, i've found a LARGE number of people having similar problems, unfortunately | 04:49 |
| glitsj16 | schmitty: ah okay, have you tried #kubuntu, they should be able to assist you easily i'd think, i just don't know sorry :) | 04:49 |
| flouge1 | how the hell am i going to recover this thing | 04:49 |
| tom_ | AutumnCat: http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.25.7.tar.bz2 | 04:49 |
| tom_ | doesn't that already have the full source including the patch? | 04:50 |
| anachronist | lockd, most people who have this problem (drive not mounting, etc.) just remove the module, which is horrible solution imho | 04:50 |
| AutumnCat | tom_: yes, you can download this , too. | 04:50 |
| lockd | anachronist: I wouldn't be surprised if it never did work (2.5 was unstable, may never have made it in) | 04:50 |
| tom_ | AutumnCat: ok cool. Well I am going to give it a shot. I'll tell you guys how it goes if I can get back on. | 04:51 |
| tom_ | Thanks a lot | 04:51 |
| Jimmie | hello | 04:51 |
| glitsj16 | flouge1: have you considered chroot'ing and reinstalling grub that way ? it's some work i realize that, but seems like something you can try before sledgehammering (i know how frustrating grub errors can be) | 04:51 |
| afabian | tom_: good luck! | 04:51 |
| lockd | anachronist: you have ohci and uhci included as well? | 04:52 |
| Jimmie | how do I force the restricted driver manager to appear? | 04:52 |
| AutumnCat | tom_: the most frequent problem may be the display card driver . | 04:52 |
| pneo | I have to unplug my laptop when starting ubuntu 8.04... if its plugged it won't start and gives me an error, how can I solve this? | 04:52 |
| tom_ | AutumnCat: what do you mean? | 04:52 |
| AutumnCat | tom_: you need to install it manually. | 04:52 |
| anachronist | lockd, no uchi, but ochi is in lsmod | 04:52 |
| anachronist | err... uhci | 04:53 |
| still_here | i still don't get it right: installing build-essential | 04:53 |
| schmitty | where in the kubuntu window manager can i set the transparency of inactive windows | 04:53 |
| lockd | anachronist: not sure, wonder what would happen if you said Y instead of M for EHCI HCD | 04:53 |
| tom_ | AutumnCat: could I just use envy? | 04:53 |
| still_here | does anyone have a pleasing heart to help me | 04:54 |
| still_here | ? | 04:54 |
| lockd | anachronist: heh, that's not even an option | 04:54 |
| alan_m | still_here: are you having issues with trying to figure out how to install build-essential? | 04:54 |
| anachronist | lockd, well, i'm running off the generic kernel... maybe i should try to recompile my own and see if that helps. that's a good idea. | 04:54 |
| alan_m | still_here: ill try my best :) | 04:54 |
| schmitty | where is the kubuntu window manager config | 04:54 |

| rajasaurus_ | anyone have raid5 hardware working from ubuntu 64bit installer cd | 04:55 |
| SonicComKid | I have a complex question for you guys | 04:55 |
| AutumnCat | tom_: since you used a non-ubuntu kernel, the ubuntu kernel module package would be unusable. | 04:55 |
| still_here | alan_m: are you there? | 04:55 |
| still_here | hehe | 04:55 |
| tom_ | AutumnCat: so how did you install it? Right off Nvidia's website? | 04:55 |
| alan_m | still_here: yes :) | 04:56 |
| SonicComKid | I need a script to massively edit all the content of php files changeing all their code to lowercase | 04:56 |
| AutumnCat | tom_: yes | 04:56 |
| harriseldon | pneo what error does it give? Have you searched online for the error? | 04:56 |
| lockd | anachronist: the only other instance of this that I'm seeing is trying to mount a usb 2.0 drive on a usb 1.1 board | 04:56 |

| anachronist | lockd: i hope it's not hardware. i'll double check my mobo specs, but i'm pretty sure it supports 2.0 | 04:56 |
| alan_m | still_here: try using aptoncd to download build-essential to a cd still_here | 04:56 |
| Flannel | SkiddyFisk: ctrl-alt-f1, log in, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade | 04:56 |
| still_here | i have no internet connection at home so i need to install c++ library manually | 04:56 |
| alan_m | !aptoncd | still_here | 04:56 |
| ubottu | still_here: APTonCD is a tool with a graphical interface which allows you to create one or more CDs or DVDs with all of the packages you've downloaded via apt-get or aptitude, creating a removable repository that you can use on other computers | 04:56 |
| tom_ | AutumnCat: I keep getting errors with this kernel compilation process. | 04:56 |
| harriseldon | SkiddyFisk can you get into a terminal? | 04:56 |
| SkiddyFisk | harriseldon, yes | 04:57 |
| akahige | I got the Firefox 3 update, but ever since Hardy installed FF3b5 my Flash plugin hasn't worked. Is there an official process for getting it to work again? Should it be the same as it was on FF2? | 04:57 |
| tom_ | AutumnCat: http://www.howtoforge.com/kernel_compilation_debian_etch | 04:57 |
| tom_ | that is the guide I am following | 04:57 |
| lockd | anachronist: http://www.fedoraforum.org/forum/archive/index.php/t-40197.html, there's a workaround that I'm not sure will do anything (changing /sys stuffs) | 04:57 |
| prakriti | what does it mean if a package is in source but not in packages? | 04:57 |
| prakriti | http://packages.ubuntu.com/source/hardy/science/openjump | 04:57 |
| still_here | its very crowded in here | 04:57 |
| prakriti | i'm trying to get openjump to work | 04:57 |
| Flannel | still_here: Do you have an install CD? | 04:57 |
| still_here | hehe | 04:57 |
| alan_m | still_here: you can get it from the Ubuntu repositories on the computer that has the internet connection, make a cd of the packages you need (build-essential) then transfer. | 04:57 |
| still_here | Flannel: yeah | 04:57 |
| pneo | I've made some searches without any solution | 04:57 |
| anachronist | lockd: that's the workaround i'm using now | 04:57 |
| still_here | i have flash drivehere | 04:58 |
| alan_m | See what I was talking about with the contributing now still_here? :) | 04:58 |
| pneo | The error is this one: | 04:58 |
| afabian | SonicComKid: It's pretty easy to make a file all lower case.. say, with tr. But you'll probably have to do something to leave comments alone. It sounds like something you might want to consider writing up in perl. Actually, perl rubs me the wrong way. I'd probably use python even though perl arguably has a good edge in text processing. | 04:58 |
| dfgas | why can't more than one program use alsa? i have firefox using alsa and pidgin and i can't hear sounds from pidgin | 04:58 |
| tom_ | AutumnCat: and when I get up to the configuration of the kernel this is what happens http://paste.ubuntu.com/21070/ | 04:58 |
| AutumnCat | tom_: you needn't extract the tarball into /usr/src | 04:58 |
| dfgas | sound blaster live | 04:58 |
| still_here | alright. thanks... | 04:58 |
| alan_m | Flannel (and others) can jump in when I dont have an answer for you still_here :) | 04:58 |
| tom_ | AutumnCat: does it really matter though? | 04:58 |
| lockd | anachronist: didn't know that one disabled usb2 as well | 04:59 |
| pneo | ACPI: EC: acpi_ec_wait timeout, status=0, expect_event=1 | 04:59 |
| alan_m | still_here: we havent really answered a question or truly guided you, stick around, flannel will explain the rest (I believe) | 04:59 |
| anachronist | lockd: oh, wait. i see the other workaround. i'll try the sys one. | 04:59 |
| khin | how do i change the install directory if there is no configure script for a program | 04:59 |
| still_here | so i have to search about repositories, right? | 04:59 |
| anachronist | lockd: thanks for the help. | 04:59 |
| AutumnCat | tom_: and make sure you have install the packages which compiling a kernel needs . | 04:59 |
| akahige | anybody got Flash running in Firefox 3...? | 04:59 |
| Flannel | still_here: It's on there. pop in the CD, sudo apt-cdrom add, sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install build-esential | 04:59 |
| afabian | SonicComKid: Also, there's the "be careful what you wish for" effect. I don't know PHP very well, but ... bad things mysteriously happen when you make global transformations in a thoughtless manner. I'd probably go through file-by-file and use something like emacs, or a text editor with a downcase function, to make lower-casing regions easy. | 04:59 |
| AutumnCat | tom_: it shows in step 2. | 05:00 |
| still_here | Flannel: i'm using windows now | 05:00 |
| alan_m | still_here: go to your Ubuntu install and do what flannel said to do, it should work right. | 05:00 |
| Flannel | still_here: That's fine. When you get home to your Ubuntu install, just pop in the CD and install from that | 05:00 |
| still_here | Flannel: I have no cd here. i'm using flash drive. | 05:00 |
| Flannel | still_here: You have your original CD you installed with at home, right? | 05:01 |
| still_here | yes | 05:01 |
| Flannel | still_here: You don't need anything else. Just put that in, and build-esential is on there. | 05:01 |
| harriseldon | SkiddyFisk you can try to restart the dist upgrade via command line via sudo do-release-upgrade but it may not work. | 05:01 |
| dfgas | how do you set the default sound card? | 05:01 |
| still_here | Flannel: alright. | 05:01 |
| alan_m | Flannel: thanks man for chipping in :) | 05:01 |
| Flannel | still_here: This is Hardy, correct? | 05:01 |
| schmitty | glitsj16: i got now. It was in kcontrol | 05:01 |
| still_here | Flannel: yes | 05:01 |
| SkiddyFisk | it didn't do anything x.x | 05:02 |
| Flannel | still_here: Aye. Its on there (a few versions it didn't ship on the desktop CD, that's been fixed) | 05:02 |
| harriseldon | Skiddyu | 05:02 |
| harriseldon | SkiddyFisk any error? | 05:02 |
| alan_m | Flannel: I wasnt aware of that, thats why i went the aptoncd route :) | 05:02 |
| NemesisD | how would I burn a DVD iso to a dvd? | 05:02 |
| NemesisD | in terminal* | 05:02 |
| still_here | Flannel: thanks, i'll try it out. | 05:02 |
| SonicComKid | afabian, sorry, phone made it so I couldn't reply. The reason for this is I need to make the content of tons of php files lowercase because they keep referenceing files with uppercase letters. There's too many php files to manually edit to lower case. I need to chage the code to point to lower case filenames | 05:02 |
| glitsj16 | schmitty: glad it's fixed | 05:02 |
| Corkster | samba upgrade just came down hope it dont break :) | 05:02 |
| Flannel | alan_m: Apt On CD unfortunately only works from an Ubuntu box for the time being | 05:02 |
| SkiddyFisk | harriseldon, "no module named GnuPGInterface" | 05:03 |
| Kalamansi | hello is there a ubuntu portable for flash drive? | 05:03 |
| tom_ | AutumnCat: ok I'm in the menuconfig now, i already copied my configuration over to the new kernel. Is there anymore config I really need to do? | 05:03 |
| alan_m | Flannel: is it possible to get the package from packages.ubuntu.com (I know im probably going the long route) and install that way from windows? | 05:03 |
| SkiddyFisk | harriseldon, it lists like a traceback of some kind | 05:03 |
| * alan_m is just trying to get in a few different ways of doing this...shoot the idea down if its incorrect please. :) | 05:04 | |
| SkiddyFisk | if only the distro upgrade was a terminal app x.x | 05:04 |
| afabian | SonicComKid: If the filenames have a pretty regular pattern, you could use sed on them. Say, the filenames are all uppercase, and all have an extension.. you could do something like.. erm... | 05:04 |
| AutumnCat | tom_: 1. make sure your config id based on the ubuntu one. | 05:04 |
| AutumnCat | tom_: 2. you need to enable alsa | 05:04 |
| arbir | is back | 05:04 |
| alan_m | Flannel: I mean download from windows and install on ubuntu, sorry for wording jumble. | 05:04 |
| arbir | after a long time | 05:04 |
| Flannel | alan_m: Of course. Just download the debs from packages.ubuntu.com. The only problem is you have to resolve dependencies manually. A few years ago I saw a website that would do it for you (give you a big list of download links), but I don't know of any anymore. | 05:04 |
| arbir | hi Flannel | 05:05 |
| Flannel | alan_m: Yeah, there's nothing wrong with sneakernet, except the lack of automation | 05:05 |
| AutumnCat | tom_: you need to disable debug info, or your kernel will be very big. | 05:05 |
| alan_m | Flannel: ok thanks buddy :) | 05:05 |
| harriseldon | SkiddyFisk look at this site http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/python/python/651096?page=last | 05:05 |
| Flannel | Howdy arbir | 05:05 |
| arbir | i am good, how do you do Flannel ? | 05:05 |
| tom_ | AutumnCat: doesnt my current kernel config probably have all that done? | 05:05 |
| still_here | Flannel: what are the other packages can i install from the ubuntu cd? | 05:05 |
| SonicComKid | afabian, the problem is they're all over the place, some are labled Index.htm, other's somthing_or_OTHER, etc. which screwed everything up for me (was designed for a windows server) I mass renamed all the files to lowercase, now I need to fix the PHP scripts to point to lowercase filenames | 05:05 |
| jadewolf | hi guys.. is there anyone that can help me out with a problem. I'm trying to get diablo 2 working under wine, but not having much luck, and hoping someone here has gotten it working themselves | 05:05 |
| * alan_m pays Flannel in cookies from now on :) | 05:06 | |
| Flannel | still_here: Do you have a desktop (Live) CD or an alternate (textmode) CD? | 05:06 |
| Colin_ | ok how do i go about getting my dhcp server to distribute the internet as well? | 05:06 |
| AutumnCat | tom_: wait for a minute. | 05:06 |
| jadewolf | winehq isnt much help at the moment | 05:06 |
| still_here | oh, i have no internet connection at home | 05:06 |
| SkiddyFisk | harriseldon, looking | 05:06 |
| arbir | Flannel: how do i update to the latest VLC, i have tried backports, but my version of VLC wont move beyond 0.8.6e while the latest is 0.8.6h ? | 05:06 |
| Pinky | cuz "alternate" pings me :\/w 22 | 05:06 |
| harriseldon | jadewolf I got it running, but I do not remember if I did anything special. | 05:06 |
| still_here | Flannel: I have no internet connection at home, so i would have to install the packages manually. | 05:06 |
| alan_m | still_here: which cd do you have? you said you had one..did you get a Live cd burned or an Alternate install cd? (live cd always comes from shipit if you got it from there) | 05:06 |
| harriseldon | jadewolf what kind of error are you getting? | 05:07 |
| jadewolf | well, here's the prob. | 05:07 |
| dba | hi | 05:07 |
| Flannel | still_here: And the packages available depends on the CD you have, which is the only reason I ask | 05:07 |
| still_here | alan_m: it was shipped to me | 05:07 |
| alan_m | Flannel: thats a live ;) | 05:07 |
| jadewolf | righto, I'll restart the post. I am trying to get Diablo 2 LOD working on hardy 8.04 32bit, using wine rc5, Nvidia Proprietry drivers and a 6200SE graphics card. The game has installed fine, and loads up, but as soon as the gamplay starts (in the town) the speed slows to a crawl, with the refresh rate seeming to jump. I have set diablo 2 to use ddraw 2d and also attempted direct3d hal. glxinfo reports direct rendering is enabled, | 05:07 |
| jadewolf | and using nvidia. All log outputs I can think of are here: http://pastebin.com/m1e362f3a if someone can please help me. I have gotten the same game working on a lower end system with ati fglrx and it runs smooth with no problems. | 05:07 |
| alan_m | still_here: ah :) | 05:07 |
| jadewolf | hope that explains it :) | 05:07 |
| dba | ok | 05:08 |
| alan_m | still_here: so you have the live cd, theres our answer we were looking for :) | 05:08 |

| arbir | Flannel: did you see my message , or it flew up too fast ? :-) | 05:08 |
| arbir | hi Ralphieeeeeeeeez | 05:08 |
| Flannel | still_here: Alright, you have the desktop CD. There aren't a whole lot more packages you can install. The desktop CDs packages are mostly concerned with getting someone on the internet (to download the rest). But here's a listing of all the stuff on the CD, the .deb files would be the packages you have available: http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.04/ubuntu-8.04-desktop-i386.list | 05:08 |
| still_here | alan_m: so what should i do? | 05:08 |
| Colin_ | anyone know how i go about getting my dhcp server to distribute the internet as well? | 05:08 |
| AutumnCat | tom_: Device Drivers -> Sound -> Advanced Linux Sound Architecture <-- enable anything you need in this branch | 05:08 |
| afabian | SonicComKid: Hmm. Well, there's a lot to it. I'd have to look at the PHP files and the changed files, and it'd probably take me half an hour to decide what approach I wanted to use. My best suggestion is ... use perl, keep backups of the files before you change them. | 05:08 |
| xiaden | ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ mount | grep sda1 | 05:08 |
| xiaden | /dev/sda1 on /media/sda1 type ntfs (rw,fmask=0111,dmask=0000) | 05:08 |
| tom_ | AutumnCat: it has an <M> on soundcard support | 05:09 |
| Flannel | arbir: I did. Um, -backports won't have it because Intrepid doesn't have it. Intrepid has the same package version as Hardy currently. When was the newer version released? | 05:09 |
| schmitty | man wireless is so shotty | 05:09 |

| SonicComKid | afabian, my solution is simple, this is just a one time run. I just need to chage the text in all the *.php files to lowercase | 05:09 |
| AeronTG | what gives? did i do something wrong? | 05:09 |
| AutumnCat | tom_: enter the ALSA branch | 05:09 |
| Flannel | AeronTG: What version of Ubuntu are you running? | 05:09 |
| dba | hello | 05:09 |
| SonicComKid | there must be a simple way to change the case of all text in files with the .php extention | 05:09 |
| tom_ | AutumnCat: ok, should I put a <y> or a <m>? | 05:09 |
| AeronTG | Flannel: i honestly don't know | 05:10 |

| Flannel | AeronTG: Firefox 3 won't be in Gutsy, it is, however, in Hardy. It is in gutsy backports too, if you wanted to grab the firefox-3.0 package (if thats what you thought you were getting, we can figure that out as well) | 05:12 |
| afabian | SonicComKid: All right. If that's what you really want to do, change ALL text to lower case.. that's trivial. Try something like: export DIR=dirwithPHPfiles ; for i in $( find $DIR \*.php ) ; do cat i | tr A-Z a-z > $i.lc ; mv $i $.bak ; mv $i.lc $i; done .. or *something* like that. Take this as a rough guide. Read manual pages. | 05:12 |

| AutumnCat | tom_: yes | 05:14 |
| Flannel | AeronTG: It is. So we can either go through the backports, or you can upgrade to Hardy. | 05:14 |

| cyclops | I need some help, how do I configure an Ubuntu Server (not Desktop) to auto mount a USB hard disk when it is inserted? | 05:38 |
| erpo | still_here: ATI or nVidia? | 05:38 |
| digitaltao | sup all | 05:39 |
| Metatron2 | how crashed is crashed on your hard drive | 05:39 |
| Rat409 | _Net: testdisk is handy | 05:39 |
| Metatron2 | does it spin for example | 05:39 |
| still_here | erpo: its VIA | 05:39 |
| tripps | my pc is a AMD athlon 64 processor but I'm running the normal hardy distro. Should I upgrade to 64 bit version? What will it get me? Any reason not to? | 05:39 |
| n1mda | Hello people :) | 05:39 |
| erpo | still_here: No idea. | 05:39 |
| yiga1 | tripps: no real reason, I'm using 64bit but there are compromises | 05:39 |
| ajhtiredwolf | Flames, if i wanted this sftp user to only be able to download and upload files, would i just check access "allow use of fuse filesystem like LTSP thin client blockdecice" | 05:40 |
| ajhtiredwolf | woops | 05:40 |
| ajhtiredwolf | that was supposed to go to Flannel | 05:40 |
| tripps | yiga1, such as? | 05:40 |
| doorknob60 | i dont think theres any compromises of using 64 bit | 05:40 |
| erpo | tripps: Do you have 4GB of RAM or more? | 05:40 |
| dmseg | <n1mda> ohh hello how are you (may i remind you we are ina support channel be a little on topic) | 05:40 |
| TiMiDo | tripps, if you like you can update to 64 bit | 05:40 |
| _Net | Rat409: I dont have ubuntu installed, it had windows previously installed on it. I'm just using SystemRescueCD to access it cause windows wont load | 05:40 |
| still_here | erpo: alright. i'll think i should have go to the company's site. ;) | 05:40 |
| erpo | still_here: Unlikely. | 05:40 |
| yiga1 | tripps: using non-64bit codecs for flash etc. | 05:40 |
| still_here | i* | 05:40 |
| Quixotic | if my harddrive is making a loud buzzing noise its probably shot right ? | 05:40 |
| tripps | 2GB RAM | 05:40 |
| n1mda | dmseg: sure thing.. I have a question ;) I'm getting to it | 05:40 |
| erpo | still_here: That's not really the Linux way. | 05:40 |
| erpo | tripps: Minimal benefit to moving to 64 bit. | 05:40 |
| still_here | erpo: what do you mean? | 05:40 |
| Metatron2 | Quixotic might be a fan | 05:41 |
| Flannel | ajhtiredwolf: No, FUSE filesystems is different. But, you'd just want to make it so they couldn't do anything outside of their homedirs, pretty much. So, hardly any permissions. Uh, the lowest preset I think is similar. | 05:41 |
| doorknob60 | yiga1: nspluginwrapper works 100% for me... | 05:41 |
| Quixotic | metatron2 i took the drive out and put it in an enclosure kit and i still hear it | 05:41 |
| tripps | TiMiDo, can I upgrade to 64 bit and still be able to boot back into normal kernel? i.e., keep all the libs side-by-side, etc.? | 05:41 |
| yiga1 | tripps: 64bit is perhaps a bit faster but if you code, then most code is written for 32 bit sometimes converting can be overlooked which leads to problems | 05:41 |
| ajhtiredwolf | Flames, so just uncheck everything? | 05:41 |
| digitaltao | Hey yall, anyone have this problem before, when i click switch user to lockout to the login screen after a few minutes the screen will go white. I can still type in a user name and password and it will dump me to that desktop. anyone? | 05:41 |
| TiMiDo | tripps, why not.. | 05:41 |
| ksa1 | update manager not working for me | 05:41 |
| Metatron2 | Quixotic well it could be going south, but ive had noisy drives keep going for years | 05:41 |

| still_here | erpo: | 05:41 |
| tripps | what is the best method to upgrade to 64 bit hardy while keeping what I have? | 05:42 |
| ksa1 | i have 8.04 | 05:42 |
| Flannel | ksa1: You still have edgy sources in your sources.list, you should remove them | 05:42 |
| tripps | i.e., is there a meta package for that | 05:42 |
| Quixotic | metratron2 could you tell me how to load the enclosure kit then in ubuntu? i plugged it in via usb but not sure how to access it and want to try to recover the data off the machine since the machine this drive was plugged into before was a mac and the mac dosent boot anymore most likely because of the drive | 05:42 |
| ksa1 | how | 05:42 |
| ksa1 | ? | 05:42 |
| cyclops | is there a way to have ubuntu hardy server auto mount a usb hard disk on connect, not on startup? | 05:42 |
| yiga1 | tripps: do you have home on a seperate partition? | 05:42 |
| Flannel | tripps: Unfortunately you can't upgrade from 32 to 64 bit (or vice versa), it's a reinstall thing | 05:42 |
| TiMiDo | ksa1, do sudo apt-get update | 05:42 |
| yiga1 | tripps: yes, indeed to what Flannel said | 05:43 |
| Wispring | you could buy a new hardrive and just install to that........ | 05:43 |
| Flannel | ksa1: alt-f2, `gksu "gedit /etc/apt/sources.list"` then put a # infront of any lines with edgy in them (look like wine ones) | 05:43 |
| ksa1 | ok, still got the error though | 05:43 |
| Metatron2 | Quixotic sorry havent used a usb enclosure, did u try booting with it plugged in, i image it just needs to be mounted | 05:43 |
| tripps | ok I guess I won't worry about it then. Thanks though! | 05:43 |
| AeronTG | Flannel: up to 25% now | 05:43 |
| trucMuche | cyclops, try with iman (i find this : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=356478 ) | 05:43 |
| Quixotic | metatron2 ill reboot and find out thx | 05:43 |
| xiaden | erpo: does 7.04 have ntfs-3g in it's repo? | 05:43 |
| yiga1 | tripps: I wouldn't what do you want 64bit for anyway? | 05:43 |
| trucMuche | ivman* | 05:43 |
| TiMiDo | ksa1, ignored it or do sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list and on the url that you see the error just put # in it. | 05:43 |
| Metatron2 | i | 05:43 |
| TiMiDo | so you ignored it | 05:43 |
| tripps | yiga1, no reason. just wondered if I might get better performance, etc. | 05:44 |
| digitaltao | Hey yall, anyone have this problem before, when i click switch user to lockout to the login screen after a few minutes the screen will go white. I can still type in a user name and password and it will dump me to that desktop. anyone? | 05:44 |
| ajhtiredwolf | Flannel, also should i make the "Main group" ssh? and should i put the profile as desktop user or unprivledged? | 05:44 |
| erpo | still_here: Drivers typically aren't distributed from the manufacturer to the user. Well, they are, but they're hard to install and come with problems. So the distros package the drivers for you. | 05:44 |
| erpo | still_here: Just install the distro and see if 3D works automatically. If it doesn't look for a howto. | 05:44 |
| erpo | still_here: Or alternately, you clearly don't care about performance since you don't have an ATI or nVidia card. So go with an Intel chip. They're well supported with FOSS drivers right out of the box. | 05:44 |
| yiga1 | tripps: unlikely at this time | 05:44 |

| still_here | erpo: thanks for that nice answer... :) | 05:45 |
| Housefly7k | initially it was working using this guide /Driver/bcm43xx/Feisty_No-Fluff | 05:45 |
| cyclops | trucMuche, I tried ivman, but I can't get it to work it doesn't seem to detect the drive at all when it connects, though the system detects it at the hal level - I'm pretty sure. | 05:45 |

| ajhtiredwolf | Flannel, ok il try that with everyhting unchecked | 05:46 |
| TiMiDo | ksa1, exit type f2 | 05:46 |
| TiMiDo | and then save it | 05:46 |
| Housefly7k | Is there anyway i can go back to that? or am I going to have to reinstall | 05:46 |

| Bodsda | Einar, does it only do it for apps that use the internet? | 05:46 |
| ksa1 | still get the error -- i feel really dumb now | 05:46 |
| ksa1 | is there anything else to do? | 05:47 |
| Einar | No, anything really | 05:47 |
| TiMiDo | ksa1, put # on it, | 05:47 |
| ksa1 | where? | 05:47 |
| Bodsda | Einar, oh, sorry, thoght you had the same prob as me | 05:47 |
| TiMiDo | ksa1, ignored it or do sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list and on the url that you see the error just put # in it. | 05:47 |
| Housefly7k | I had uninstalled ndiswrapper, and followed the guide to patch the kernel with the broadcom drivers, and now i wanna go back to the previous working settings anyway to do that? | 05:47 |

| glitsj16 | extor: i presume it will work smoothly with apache and php, what IDE are you trying to plug it into ? | 05:49 |
| QuixoticJ | Can anyone explain to me how I can view a hdd that I just plugged in using an enclosure kit via usb ? | 05:49 |
| Housefly7k | digitaltao: i get that white screen when i resume from suspend, havent looked into a solution yet | 05:49 |
| Flannel | Housefly7k: You should be able to, yes. You'll need to remove/disable ndiswrapper and then unblacklist your bcm module | 05:49 |
| ksa1 | ok works now | 05:49 |
| ksa1 | thanks | 05:49 |
| clintchance | Anyone know why my graphics card is goiong haywire? All graphical intinsive displays are blinking rapidly hen used. | 05:50 |

| digitaltao | Housefly7k: are you using the nvidia drivers? | 05:50 |

| Housefly7k | digitaltao: yes | 05:51 |
| calcmandan | taken straight from yahoo sports in a story about the Celtics' win over Lakers tonight: "It was a group effort by this gang in green, which bonded behind Rivers, who borrowed an African word ubuntu (pronounced Ooh-BOON-too) and roughly means “I am, because we are” in English, as the Celtics’ unifying team motto." | 05:51 |
| digitaltao | Housefly: do you have the enhanced desktop features enabled? | 05:51 |
| Housefly7k | Flannel: i followed this guide here, using ndiswrapper and it worked https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Feisty_No-Fluff | 05:51 |
| Flannel | Housefly7k: And then you did what and it broke? | 05:51 |
| clintchance | Quixoticj, its doing it on Google earth | 05:51 |
| QuixoticJ | how can I view a HDD that I plugged in via usb inside an enclosure kit? I thought ubuntu automounts but I cant seem to locate the drive. | 05:52 |
| kininja | calcmandan: Do you have a link by chance? | 05:52 |
| Housefly7k | Flannel: this guide, uninstalled ndiswrapper and patched the kernel http://tinyshell.be/aircrackng/forum/index.php?topic=3597.0 | 05:52 |
| QuixoticJ | clintchance It can overheat from any type of video usage if the card is going bad. | 05:52 |
| glitsj16 | extor: okay, it's a debugging tool, that much is clear .. the nifty thing is that it hooks right into your scripts without you having to change those (which is a real blessing) .. perhaps xdebug.org has more info on the ubuntu or linux support in general | 05:52 |
| Metatron2 | QuixoticJ try sudo fdisk -1 and see if the drive is detected | 05:52 |
| calcmandan | kininja: yes, here it is http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/recap?gid=2008061702 | 05:52 |
| legend2440 | ajhtiredwolf: maybe channel #proftpd would know | 05:52 |
| extor | glitsj16, don | 05:53 |
| clintchance | Quixoticj, it better not be the laptop is only 1 1/2 years old its an ati 1100 Radeon express | 05:53 |
| extor | glitsj16, don't you have to type in a line saying breakpoint() or something into your code? | 05:53 |
| kininja | calcmandan: Totally awesome! | 05:53 |
| calcmandan | :D | 05:53 |
| extor | yeah I am going to read their web page a bit more | 05:53 |

| glitsj16 | extor: hmm, i guess it's one of those 'try - and find -out' moments .. at least the packaged version in ubuntu op php5-xdebug is pretty recent | 05:54 |
| SonicComKid | Okay, I found a much simpler methid being: tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]' <file >newfile can someone please tell me how to make it so that this will resursivly run that command, in which 'file' and 'newfile' will be every php file in every directory (desired result is to make all .php files lowercase by text) | 05:54 |
| QuixoticJ | clintchance try blowing it out with an air compressor or compressed air in the vents and heatsink areas. Maybe its dusty if its that old | 05:54 |
| Flannel | Housefly7k: Gah. What fun. Uh, choosing one of your stock kernels should work as far as the kernel is concerned, As for the wifi modules, I'm less sure. This is why following random forum posts isn't safe. | 05:54 |
| robuntu | hey | 05:54 |
| Metatron2 | QuixoticJ if sudo fdisk -1 in terminal shows something, | 05:54 |
| QuixoticJ | metatron2 I dont see the usb hdd showing up in fdisk -l. Any ideas ? i think the drive might be defective but I dont know how to properly mount it to be sure | 05:54 |
| clintchance | Quixoticj, Could it be Copiz? | 05:54 |
| clintchance | compiz* | 05:55 |
| Housefly7k | Flannel: yeah i know, i only followed it cause it was on the documentation page of aircrack-ng | 05:55 |
| Flannel | SonicComKid: Check out "replace" instead. | 05:55 |
| Housefly7k | Flannel: so it isnt reversible | 05:55 |
| wasabi_ | anyone having mount problems with xubuntu 8.04? | 05:55 |
| Metatron2 | then a command like then a command - - sudo mount /dev/sdb1 <or what fdisk-1 showed> /media/myusbdrive should mount it | 05:55 |
| SonicComKid | flannel, I still need a way to make it mass run on all php files to make them all lowercase in contents | 05:55 |
| Metatron2 | if fdisk doesnt see it, get comfortable | 05:55 |
| glitsj16 | extor: it supports remote debugging as well, hope you can get it going, it's addictive once you use it (especially the code profiler to get the heavy parts located so you can try to get those cleaner) :) | 05:56 |
| QuixoticJ | metatron2 I dont think fdisk sees any paritions that werent already there when I set the box up. | 05:56 |
| extor | glitsj16, which IDE do you use it with? | 05:56 |
| Flannel | Housefly7k: No, it should be reversible, I'm just not up to snuff with my mental filesystem to tell you how to reverse it. It mostly depends on the program's (fwcutter) functionality. As I'm unfamiliar with it | 05:56 |
| Flannel | SonicComKid: Oh, you need to do it for the contents? | 05:56 |
| QuixoticJ | metatron2 I'm not even sure the computer knows I plugged a usb thing in | 05:56 |
| SonicComKid | flannel, also, 'replace' is not a vlid command. and it says if I want to install it, to type apt-get install mysql-server-5.0 for some strange reason O.o | 05:56 |
| extor | glitsj16, check this out...this is what got me interested in xdebug: http://www.pseudocoder.com/archives/2007/04/24/how-to-really-use-xdebug-to-speed-up-your-app/ | 05:57 |
| malkav | sereiously why do i have a big pale yellow block where my youtube video should be in mozilla? amd_64, hardy | 05:57 |
| extor | Is that how you are utilizing it also? | 05:57 |
| Flannel | SonicComKid: replace isnt a command its a program. I... couldve sworn it was installed by default, but I suppose might not be anymore. | 05:57 |
| SonicComKid | flannel, YES, I want to make all PHP files CONTENTS lower case. Which is why I typed that command before | 05:57 |
| Metatron2 | if the drivers are right then it should report in with fdisk -1 | 05:57 |
| glitsj16 | extor: i started with a simple text editor like gedit and have tried a few but never felt at home, still using gedit with a few plugins for documentation and code-folding | 05:57 |
| Metatron2 | if not.... i dunno, try the vendors web site, maybe a missing module | 05:57 |
| SonicComKid | flannel, I asked multiple times, and people keep giving me huge complex scripts that don't work | 05:57 |
| wasabi_ | Metatron2, yea that works but is there a way to fix the automount so it works? | 05:58 |
| Flannel | SonicComKid: The description around it didn't make sense re: contents. Well, shucks. That's quite a task. At any rate. | 05:58 |
| QuixoticJ | metatron2 if the harddrive was bad would that prevent fdisk -l from showing anything ? | 05:58 |
| extor | glitsj16, but did you get xdebug integrated into gedit? | 05:58 |
| digitaltao | Hey yall, anyone have this problem before, when i click switch user to lockout to the login screen after a few minutes the screen will go white. I can still type in a user name and password and it will dump me to that desktop. anyone know of a fix? | 05:58 |
| Metatron2 | not sure on automount, hampered a bit here not in ubunut atm, installing it on other machine, but he wanted to get the data cause the drive might be marginal, should be able to do that | 05:58 |
| SonicComKid | flannel, the last person gave me: export DIR=dirwithPHPfiles ; for i in | 05:59 |
| SonicComKid | $( find $DIR \*.php ) ; do cat $i | tr A-Z a-z > $i.lc ; mv $i $.bak ; mv $i.lc $i; done but that doesn't work | 05:59 |
| robuntu | I have issues, big ones, i cant compile anything it will not create any makefile executables, i type ./config it runs through, then type make and it cant find any makefile execs thats with all packages, also i cant install beryl i try to add the repository list for it, but when i try to add the key via terminal the conection times out, nothing that i want seems to be working | 05:59 |

| wasabi_ | hmm nvm it seems to be working now for some strange reason | 05:59 |

| Flannel | SonicComKid: Lets take this to #ubuntu-offtopic, itll be less noisy for everyone involved | 05:59 |
| glitsj16 | extor: i hook it into apache and at the bottom of any script it shows the debug and profile output, i don't write overly complex php code though :) | 05:59 |

| QuixoticJ | metatron2 thx for the help. im not sure where to turn next. I hope this isnt a failed drive it has quickbooks on it and desperately need the info off. | 06:00 |

| swansk | Can anyone recreate my problem? | 06:00 |
| glitsj16 | extor: there's kcachegrind on ubuntu as well if you want to go that way, everything is there | 06:01 |
| ajhtiredwolf | Flannel, its not letting people connect :-\ | 06:01 |
| digitaltao | magazist you can install steam with wine | 06:01 |
| Metatron2 | ajhtiredwolf firewall? | 06:01 |
| extor | glitsj16, nice; I am going to be exploring all these tools soon | 06:01 |
| ajhtiredwolf | Metatron2, I have a router | 06:01 |
| swansk | Anyone else have VLC?? | 06:01 |
| robuntu | I have issues, big ones, i cant compile anything it will not create any makefile executables, i type ./config it runs through, then type make and it cant find any makefile execs thats with all packages, also i cant install beryl i try to add the repository list for it, but when i try to add the key via terminal the conection times out, nothing that i want seems to be working | 06:01 |
| glitsj16 | extor: in case you are unfamiliar with that, it's a visualization tool to interpret bigger php apps, very handy indeed | 06:01 |
| Flannel | ajhtiredwolf: Do you have port 22 forwarded/opened on your router? | 06:01 |
| ajhtiredwolf | Flannel, dont think so. Do i need to open it? | 06:02 |
| glitsj16 | extor: yes, some reading and experimenting,, the php spirit ;) | 06:02 |
| magazist | <digitaltao> magazist you can install steam with wine | 06:02 |
| magazist | you mind ? | 06:02 |
| magazist | how to install ? | 06:02 |
| Metatron2 | robuntu have you downloaded a new kernel lately? i got a new kernel but the update missed the header and compiles went south, got the full update and its ok now | 06:02 |
| still_here | is there a person willing to teach me linux? hehe, a kinda kind of master. | 06:02 |
| TuXNuBGuy | i cant figure out how to install anything | 06:02 |
| Flannel | ajhtiredwolf: Yeah. They need to be able to connect via ssh (port 22 by default) | 06:02 |
| TuXNuBGuy | im a new linux user | 06:02 |
| ajhtiredwolf | Flannel, he sad it says account logon type not supported by selected protcol | 06:02 |
| robuntu | where can i get it im not sure how can i check | 06:03 |
| Flannel | ajhtiredwolf: Can you log in locally? | 06:03 |
| Flannel | ajhtiredwolf: (to one of those accounts) | 06:03 |
| SiegeX | ok, lets try another question. Does ubuntu 8.04 come with compiz and all that eyecandy installed out of the box? | 06:03 |
| digitaltao | mag there are a few really good tuts on the web | 06:03 |
| digitaltao | just google steam install with wine | 06:03 |
| glitsj16 | TuXNubGuy: there's a small but nice howto on installing at http://monkeyblog.org/ubuntu/installing/ | 06:04 |
| riz0n | Hey guys, i just switched monitors and when ubuntu starts up (the screen with the orange pong that goes back and forth across the screen) my screen says Video is out of range. How can you change the video settings for startup/shutdown? Once ubuntu boots it works fine. | 06:04 |
| Flannel | SiegeX: Yes, a subset | 06:04 |
| ajhtiredwolf | Flames, yeah it let me login locally | 06:04 |
| magazist | digitaltao ==> i am not understood | 06:04 |
| DaveKong | How do you load the windows manager from bash? | 06:04 |
| magazist | can you tell me step by step ? | 06:04 |
| Metatron2 | someone jar my memory, whats the command line command to set eth0 ip addy, netmask, gateway, dns | 06:05 |
| robuntu | what is the latest kernel version? | 06:05 |
| SiegeX | Flannel: for the whole shebang, is it just a matter of apt-get'ing some packages or do i have to roll my own from source? | 06:05 |
| digitaltao | let me find you a link magazist | 06:05 |
| ajhtiredwolf | Flames, when i logged in locally... its supposed to go to the folder i specified but i see root and everything | 06:05 |
| glitsj16 | robuntu: on ubuntu that'll be 2.6.24-19 | 06:05 |
| robuntu | ok | 06:05 |
| robuntu | how do i check my kernel version | 06:06 |
| soldats | uname -a | 06:06 |
| Starnestommy | robuntu: uname -r | 06:06 |
| soldats | i think | 06:06 |
| glitsj16 | uname -r | 06:06 |
| ajhtiredwolf | Flannel, when i logged in locally... its supposed to go to the folder i specified but i see root and everything | 06:06 |
| robuntu | ok | 06:06 |
| Flannel | ajhtiredwolf: Sounds like your user didn't get a homedirectory | 06:06 |
| Flannel | ajhtiredwolf: the unprivledged user may have no homedir made by default, I'm not sure. | 06:07 |
| digitaltao | here you go magazist http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Steam_under_Linux | 06:07 |
| robuntu | ok i have the latest kernel version but i cant compile anything, it wont make any makefile execs, i run through the ./configure and it does its thing, then i type make and it says it cannot locate a makefile exec | 06:07 |
| g4ss13 | hey guys | 06:08 |
| jbroome | robuntu: build-essential | 06:08 |
| robuntu | its giving me issues with all sorts of packages | 06:08 |
| itai-michaelson | hi, will firefox 3 make it to gutsy repos? dapper? | 06:08 |
| g4ss13 | yeah I'm waiting for Firefox 3 | 06:08 |
| ajhtiredwolf | Flannel, ok it let him connect. I guess when he connects he only sees the folders i specified. But when i connect locally i see all files. weird | 06:08 |
| Starnestommy | itai-michaelson: I don't think it'll be in gutsy or dapper anytime soon if at all, but hardy should be getting it | 06:08 |
| glitsj16 | itai-michaelson: to gutsy via backports perhaps, dapper that's pretty much a lost cause for firefox 3 i guess | 06:08 |
| itai-michaelson | thanks | 06:09 |
| kiosk | mancesss | 06:09 |
| kiosk | sweet | 06:09 |
| kiosk | nnnnnnnnnn | 06:09 |
| Flannel | ajhtiredwolf: Yeah, everything looks in order over here. | 06:10 |
| R-phael | Shalom | 06:10 |
| ajhtiredwolf | Flames, any idea why i can see more than other people can? | 06:11 |
| ajhtiredwolf | Flannel, , any idea why i can see more than other people can? | 06:11 |
| Flannel | ajhtiredwolf: You shouldn't be able to. Let me try logging in locally, see what I see. | 06:11 |
| ajhtiredwolf | Flames, ok | 06:11 |
| Flannel | ajhtiredwolf: What did you see? I don't see anything unusual. Just my homedir | 06:12 |
| shaz | i instaled ubuntu onto my externsl and when i boot up grub it says the partition doesnt exist.... so | 06:12 |
| shaz | what do i do | 06:12 |
| ajhtiredwolf | Flannel, I see bin boot cdrom dev etc home int and everything | 06:12 |
| ajhtiredwolf | Flannel, but the dir is sftp://ftpclient@192.168.0.2/ | 06:13 |

| user334234 | I am new to ubuntu where can I get a good php editor with code highlighting | 06:14 |
| Flannel | SiegeX: No | 06:14 |
| glitsj16 | user334234: there's gedit, bluefish for instance, code highlighting with both | 06:14 |
| izinucs | user334234, screem | 06:14 |

| robuntu | how can i check glits | 06:17 |
| Guillaum3 | greets gents, i ran the update manager and got: "E: linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-19-generic: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1" | 06:17 |
| robuntu | synaptic | 06:17 |
| glitsj16 | robuntu: try Synaptic | 06:17 |
| robuntu | ok | 06:17 |
| g4ss13 | Anyone able to help me with my webcam? | 06:18 |
| glitsj16 | robuntu: while you're in there, might as well check gcc as well to make sure | 06:18 |
| Guillaum3 | i know the kernel is nothing to mess with. will my system be left inoperable? | 06:18 |
| erik_ | The mouse I'm attempting to use is a targus notebook mouse. It works fine under windows. Anyone know why ubuntu wouldn't recognize it? | 06:18 |

| BoltCloc1 | does the repos already have firefox 3 stable? | 06:18 |
| Vedestin | yep | 06:19 |
| Wispring | total linux/ubuntu newbie here... i would like to delete a file...but when i chk the properties on it it shows I am not the root...what do i need to do to delete this file...any help always is very much appreciated | 06:19 |
| robuntu | glits: i also have gcc instaled | 06:19 |
| glitsj16 | robuntu: hmm strange indeed in that case, can 't come up with anything at the moment that could cause those kind of errors sorry | 06:19 |
| kininja | Wispring: Sounds like you shouldn't delete it | 06:20 |
| robuntu | glits: its ok im at a complete loss i think my machine is crap!!! :) | 06:20 |
| BoltCloc1 | Vedestin: i see. thanks | 06:20 |
| robuntu | ok i have the latest kernel version, make, automake, gcc and build-essential but i cant compile anything, it wont make any makefile execs, i run through the ./configure and it does its thing, then i type make and it says it cannot locate a makefile exec | 06:20 |
| kininja | Wispring: What is the file you're trying to delete? | 06:20 |
| Wispring | no i just read at proftpd.org...that i should | 06:21 |
| Wispring | /etc/shutmsg | 06:21 |
| kininja | Well, if you really need to, in a terminal run: sudo rm /etc/shutmsg | 06:21 |
| Wispring | having probs getting this ftp server working | 06:21 |
| glitsj16 | robuntu: if you have backups of all your data, i guess a reinstall won't set you far back timewise, sometimes bandwith cap is another problem :) | 06:21 |
| Vedestin | did it not update automatically, BoltCloc1? | 06:21 |
| robuntu | glits: this is the real kicker its a complete freash install, wtf, i dont get it had it only hours | 06:22 |
| erik_ | Hardy heron not recognizing wireless usb mouse. Touchpad is driving me insane. What can I do? | 06:22 |
| kininja | Wispring: I would recommend copying or moving the file elsewhere | 06:22 |
| BoltCloc1 | Vedestin: it sure did. argh that stupid nick problem is back | 06:22 |
| kininja | Just in case | 06:22 |
| glitsj16 | robuntu: ow i see | 06:22 |
| Wispring | how simply renaming it? | 06:22 |
| kininja | Yeah | 06:23 |
| kininja | Or sudo mv /etc/shutmsg ~ | 06:23 |
| kininja | Which will just move it to your homedir | 06:23 |
| robuntu | ok i have the latest kernel version, make, automake, gcc and build-essential but i cant compile anything, it wont make any makefile execs, i run through the ./configure and it does its thing, then i type make and it says it cannot locate a makefile exec, and this is a fresh install too. any ideas? | 06:23 |
| robuntu | wouldnt compile on the live cd ether | 06:24 |
| Matthew | does anyone use keyboard multimedia buttons in Amarok? Mine work in Rhythmbox but not Amarok. | 06:24 |
| Felonious | I use them and they work in Exaile | 06:24 |
| Felonious | so it may just be amarok | 06:24 |
| Matthew | i'm sure they work for other applications, I was just wondering if anyone knew of a way to get them to work in amarok. | 06:25 |
| Felonious | im suprised they dont to be honest | 06:25 |
| robuntu | *hangs self with mouse cord* | 06:25 |
| nickrud | robuntu is this true for every application you've tried to compile? | 06:26 |
| robuntu | so far, unless you have anyother packages for me to try | 06:26 |
| robuntu | ive tried like three | 06:26 |
| AbhijeetKaushik | Hello, I installed Ubuntu 8.04. And I connect to internet by going to the terminal and typing pppoeconf.. I get connected to the internet but only for about a minute or so. Then it gets disconnected automatically. Any hint what is causing this? | 06:26 |
| Ramzi | does anyone knows an alternative for mythtv? | 06:26 |
| nickrud | I've never run across stuff like that happening. build-essential has always got me up and running doing compilations | 06:27 |
| SiegeX | can ubuntu install RPM's pretty easily or should i use a tar.gz? Vmware only has those two options | 06:27 |
| robuntu | i dont know im at an absolute loss, ive wanted linux but this seems unfixable | 06:27 |
| izinucs | SiegeX, tar | 06:28 |
| SiegeX | VMware Workstation 6.5 Beta i should say, im sure non-beta has it | 06:28 |
| nickrud | SiegeX system->admin->software sources, enable canonical partner in 3d party sources, then sudo apt-get install vmware-server | 06:28 |
| glitsj16 | SiegeX: rpm's no not easily no | 06:28 |
| nickrud | SiegeX ah, workstation. Targz | 06:28 |
| nickrud | !rpm | SiegeX | 06:28 |
| ubottu | SiegeX: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous) | 06:28 |
| izinucs | nickrud, wish I new that last week about vmware.. would've saved me hours. | 06:28 |
| robuntu | ok i have the latest kernel version, make, automake, gcc and build-essential but i cant compile anything, it wont make any makefile execs, i run through the ./configure and it does its thing, then i type make and it says it cannot locate a makefile exec, its also a fresh install. | 06:29 |
| Miesco | My dell came with a remote, does that mean it has a Infra-red device? | 06:29 |
| izinucs | nickrud, do you know which version? 1.0.6 or Beta 2.9 | 06:29 |
| Ramzi | Miesco, it should | 06:29 |
| nickrud | izinucs a sec | 06:30 |
| izinucs | k | 06:30 |
| prakriti | does ubuntu have a "chkconfig" ? | 06:30 |
| prakriti | or how do I add / remove startup services ? | 06:30 |
| robuntu | anyone? | 06:30 |
| erik_ | having usb issues in hardy heron | 06:31 |
| nickrud | izinucs I'd swear I got vmware-server from there, but it's not available now | 06:31 |
| Miesco | The CIR on Dell Portable computers will only function with the Dell Travel Remote, and is not designed to work with any other remote control device. | 06:31 |
| nickrud | izinucs could be thinking of gutsy | 06:31 |
| Miesco | Does that mean its not a normal IR unit? | 06:32 |
| AeronTG | Flannel: it finally completed, with problems (I think). here's the pastebin url -> http://pastebin.com/f56734597 | 06:32 |
| izinucs | nickrud, yea maybe... vers 1.0.X doesn't work right on the newer kernel and needs a patch called any-any.. vers. 2.0 beta works but performance is pretty slow.. functional though. | 06:33 |
| robuntu | ok i have the latest kernel version, make, automake, gcc and build-essential but i cant compile anything, it wont make any makefile execs, i run through the ./configure and it does its thing, then i type make and it says it cannot locate a makefile exec, its a fresh install and updated. | 06:33 |
| Flannel | AeronTG: Wow. Debian sid? and automatix? What have you installed from each, do you know? | 06:33 |
| nickrud | izinucs I've been using virtualbox this time around, probably why I'm out of date (speaking of which, _another_ kernel update !??!) | 06:33 |
| Wispring | if anyone here is knowledgable with protpd(FTP server) I sure could do with some help getting mine configured correctly | 06:34 |
| izinucs | nickrud, does virtualbox have usb support? | 06:34 |
| nickrud | izinucs the one from sun does, not the open source edition (again, last time I looked at ose) | 06:34 |
| SiegeX | ok, so RPM bad, tarball good | 06:35 |
| nickrud | SiegeX couldn't say it better myself ;) | 06:35 |
| erik_ | I need help. Ubuntu Hardy Heron on HP Pavilion Notebook will not recognize Targus USB wireless mouse. | 06:35 |
| mjbrooks | I'm running kubuntu and I did an update this morning before I ran out the door, it pulled in the 2.6.24-19 kernel and new nvidia drivers and now I can't log in to xorg... I get the kdm screen adn I can log on in a terminal, but I just keep getting kicked back to the kdm login screen now... anyone have any thoughts? | 06:36 |
| AeronTG | Flannel: i have no idea :) i went off trying to install automatix one time, the screenshots looked kind of neat....didn't do anything for me, though. | 06:36 |
| robuntu | I cant install beryl, i add the repository list to synaptic, but when i try to connect to ubuntu.beryl-project.org to get the key in term, it times out | 06:36 |
| SiegeX | nickrud: hmm, what about something like checkinstall with a tarball? | 06:36 |
| nickrud | mjbrooks clt-alt-f1, log in, run sudo dpkg-reconfigure -pcritical xserver-xorg , then restart kdm. See if you can log in. | 06:36 |
| erik_ | nickrud I just installed virtualbox, and the OSE version doesn't support USB. | 06:37 |
| nickrud | SiegeX might work, never tried that with any really large package | 06:37 |
| SiegeX | i used that a few times on slackware to make tgz packages, im fairly sure it makes .deb | 06:37 |
| glitsj16 | robuntu: any specific need for beryl instead of compiz ? | 06:37 |
| mjbrooks | thanks nick I'll give that a shot | 06:37 |
| erik_ | However, the closed source does and is still free. | 06:37 |
| Flannel | AeronTG: Alright, we'll assume that's not there. Go ahead and remove that entry in your sources.list | 06:37 |
| kininja | Wispring: I don't know about proftp but what is the problem you're tring to solve? Out of curiosity... | 06:37 |
| robuntu | glits: whats the diffrence, only because i have only heard of beryl | 06:37 |
| kininja | I've worked with proftp a few times | 06:37 |
| robuntu | and how to get compiz? | 06:37 |
| kininja | But never got really got dirty with it. | 06:37 |
| SiegeX | ok, ill give that a shot then. Oh one more thing, what does the DVD give me that the ISO doesnt? Just a shitload of packages that I can d/l otherwise? | 06:37 |
| Bodsda | !compiz | robuntu | 06:37 |
| ubottu | robuntu: Compiz (compositing window manager) and XGL (X server architecture layered on top of OpenGL) - Howto at http://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager - help in #compiz-fusion | 06:37 |
| Flannel | SiegeX: Plus both installation methods, yeah. | 06:38 |
| nickrud | SiegeX yes it does make debs, I've used it with make a couple times | 06:38 |
| Wispring | kininja i am unable to connect to it while it is running...using default config | 06:38 |
| kininja | You mean like, trying to ftp to the proftp server once it's running and failing? | 06:38 |
| Flannel | AeronTG: Alright, we'll assume that's not there. Go ahead and remove that entry in your sources.list And remove debian sid too. Thats... going to make upgrading *fun*. Do you know what you've installed from sid? | 06:38 |
| * nickrud cringes | 06:39 | |
| Wispring | kininja it shows as runing in the terminal, but when I try to connect via "ftp localhost" the connection is refused | 06:39 |
| ePax | Which one media center is the best for ubuntu? LinuxMCE or Lisa or Mythbuntu? | 06:39 |
| nickrud | Flannel with automatix and debian, maybe a reinstall rather than upgrade would be in order? Just wondering | 06:40 |
| SiegeX | oh, there are multiple install methods? Im guessing one is your normal partition drive/install and the other is a liveCD with an option to make it permanent? | 06:40 |
| SiegeX | or something else? | 06:40 |
| kininja | Wispring: Perhaps it is not listening on localhost port 80? What about trying to connect to it's outside IP? | 06:40 |
| Miesco | Ramzi: Will it be in the device manager? | 06:40 |
| nice88 | Is the new firefox available on the updates? | 06:40 |
| ePax | nice88: Yes | 06:40 |
| nickrud | SiegeX ncurses interface, very customizable or gui answer a few questions and go out for a coffee | 06:40 |
| kininja | I'm guessing it's not a firewall or it would timeout. | 06:40 |
| robuntu | I have compiz, how do i open the manager? | 06:40 |
| kininja | Oh, sorry, proftp, not port 80 | 06:41 |
| Flannel | nickrud: Yeah, Its definately leaning that way. Especially if hes on dialup. Downloading it onto a CD would be a lot more stable. | 06:41 |
| SiegeX | i need the dvd for ncurses? | 06:41 |
| SiegeX | cause id feel more at home with that since it sounds alot like the slackware install | 06:41 |
| nice88 | How do i install it? | 06:41 |
| Flannel | SiegeX: No, alternate CD | 06:41 |
| nickrud | SiegeX or the alternate install cd. I always use that one for the ncurses | 06:41 |
| nickrud | SiegeX something that's not obvious: in the install, if you hit escape enough times you get to the master install menu, very handy sometimes | 06:42 |
| Wispring | Kininja it listens on port 21 according to the config file | 06:43 |
| kininja | On what IP address? | 06:43 |
| izinucs | kininja, the ip of the machine the ftp server is running on. | 06:43 |
| robuntu | I have compiz, how do i open the manager? | 06:44 |
| Wispring | kininja how do i connect to it's outside IP? | 06:44 |
| nickrud | Flannel I learned a lot mixing different debian releases, pinning and the like (and advanced aptitude usage). Not for the faint of heart, upgrading/downgrading across releases | 06:44 |
| izinucs | !ccsm | robuntu | 06:44 |
| ubottu | robuntu: ccsm is To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy), install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' or 'simple-ccsm'. If you install the latter, a new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz-fusion | 06:44 |
| kininja | robuntu: Sorry, that was a question for Wispring | 06:44 |
| robuntu | ok | 06:44 |
| Wispring | kininja you mean the numeric IP address(url)? | 06:45 |
| AeronTG | Flannel: can i just remove all lines that are commented out for the sake of cleaning up the file? | 06:45 |
| lat_ | Is there a link for troubleshooting printer installation? My new Epson C90 will not print. | 06:45 |
| kininja | Wispring: Yeah, the numberic IP, but it probably won't matter. Would you be able to try a telnet to it? | 06:45 |
| Dezine | I'm trying to edit the ubuntu menu with alacarte but it won't allow me, I opened it with terminal to see what is going on and it says permission denied when I tried to check or uncheck something? | 06:46 |
| Wispring | kininja i would be willing...how is it done? | 06:46 |
| kininja | Well, that would probably do the same thing Wispring | 06:46 |

| kininja | Wispring: I guess it's worth a shot but it'll probably have the same result: connection refused. In a terminal, run telnet <addressOfYourFTPHost> 21 | 06:46 |
| Flannel | AeronTG: Actually, it is probably best if you do a reinstall. This upgrade *may* work, but theres a good chance it wont work cleanly. Downloading the disk will allow you to do it via bittorrent, so you can download it in pieces, and also will give you something to use as a recovery if needed when thigns go south. | 06:47 |

| mjbrooks | nickrud: dpkg-reconfigure failed to work.... it doesn't seem to be xorg.conf and I'm not seeing any errors in the logs, any other ideas? | 06:50 |
| penny1 | hi. hoping someone can help with a weird problem. I'm running ubuntu 8.04 hardy 64bit, with ati radeon 9250 & latest ati fglrx propreitry drivers. For some reason, whenever anything goes fullscreen (including xchat) or a terminal or firefox is opened, the screen starts flashing black then normal again repeatedly. due to this I cannot even use firefox to google for help. does anyone know what could be going on? | 06:51 |
| Dezine | The Add/Remove option somehow disapeared and I'm trying to get it back | 06:51 |
| nickrud | Dezine if you're trying to check a submenu, check an item inside the submenu | 06:51 |
| kininja | Wispring: For some reason I'm not seeing your link | 06:51 |
| poop2 | why i couldn't join this channel with my robot? | 06:51 |
| inssight | is there any type of tool that i can use to test all the hardware on my computer? its very strange and gives me alot of random problems for seemingly no reason | 06:51 |
| nickrud | mjbrooks you might look at the log for gdm , /var/log/gdm directory | 06:51 |

| cnlk | hello | 06:53 |
| digitaltao | Hey yall, anyone have this problem before, when i click switch user to lockout to the login screen after a few minutes the screen will go white. I can still type in a user name and password and it will dump me to that desktop. anyone? | 06:53 |
| mjbrooks | nickrud: ah, I didn't see that one... I'll go check it thanks | 06:53 |
| cnlk | good afternoon | 06:53 |
| Dezine | Thanks though, it is letting me edit | 06:53 |
| Auctionedllama | Hey all, is there anyway I can access folders that says permission denied? I just need to put a file in a folder, and it won't let me.. | 06:53 |
| Flannel | AeronTG: alright, you can get around having to back everything up by putting home onto a separate partition. Then during the install, you tell the installer you want to use that partition as your homedir, and *not* to format it. You'll reinstall "around" your homedir. | 06:53 |
| FuRom | Are there any packet editors like WPE pro for ubuntu? | 06:54 |
| Flannel | AeronTG: http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/01/29/move-home-to-its-own-partition/ will get you onto a separate partition | 06:54 |
| Auctionedllama | Hey all, is there anyway I can access folders that says permission denied? I just need to put a file in a folder, and it won't let me.. | 06:54 |
| Flannel | AeronTG: also, there's no excuse for not having backups in general, but I'm not going to get preachy ;) | 06:54 |

| ubottu | Auctionedllama: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience | 06:54 |

| glitsj16 | penny1: i guess like that copy/pasting your /var/log/Xorg.0.log into paste.ubuntu.com is going to be hellish, but can you try so we can take a look ? | 06:55 |
| idyllic | I am unable to mount any DVD with ubuntu hardy. Cds work fine though. Mounting was fine under gusty and the dvds are burnt in windows. Anyone is able to help me? | 06:55 |
| penny1 | ok, 1 minute | 06:56 |
| glitsj16 | penny1: okay, no rush .. paste the url bach here when you're done | 06:56 |
| idyllic | Auctionedllama, go to terminal, and use "sudo mv [path to ur file] [path to destination] | 06:56 |
| Auctionedllama | idyllic, is there any other way, because this gets annoying | 06:56 |
| penny1 | slight correction on the error first. it doesnt matter what I run, but as soon as anything used the bottom quarter of the screen is when it does it. if I reduce the size of firefox to only use 3/4 of the desktop its fine | 06:56 |
| izinucs | penny1, install pastebinit then in a terminal type cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | pastebinit and it will return with a link address.... glitsj16 | 06:57 |
| khin | anyone ever used the antiword rtf converter program | 06:57 |
| khin | i am trying to access italic/bold text | 06:57 |
| khin | i cannot make the -f option work | 06:57 |
| idyllic | Auctionedllama, well u can get a nautilus script to open a root filemanager for you | 06:57 |
| glitsj16 | penny1: odd indeed, i was thinking it might have something to do with X, that's why i asked for that log, thx for the clarification | 06:57 |
| penny1 | would you like any glxinfo or other logs at the same time? | 06:57 |
| Auctionedllama | idyllic, where can I get that? | 06:57 |
| glitsj16 | izinucs: thx, good suggestion | 06:58 |
| wasabi_ | what's a good sftp program? | 06:58 |
| izinucs | wasabi, gftp for a client .. proftpd for server. | 06:58 |
| glitsj16 | penny1: yes, throw your /etc/X11/xorg.conf in it as well if u want | 06:58 |
| wasabi_ | izinucs, thanks | 06:59 |

| madadam_ | 'morning! does someone know which is the most similar program to devc++ for ubuntu? | 06:59 |
| idyllic | I am unable to mount any DVD with ubuntu hardy. Cds work fine though. Mounting was fine under gusty and the dvds are burnt in windows. Anyone is able to help me? | 07:00 |
| wasabi_ | is there a way to enable the file transfer dialog in thunar? i'm transfering a huge file from a network computer to my xubuntu desktop but it does not show how much time is left | 07:00 |
| penny1 | http://pastebin.com/m5d15a3b9 | 07:00 |
| penny1 | there :) | 07:00 |
| glitsj16 | penny1: just trying to get the context of your trouble .. do you have a dock running at the bottom 1/3 by any chance ? Thx for the paste, i'll have a look and report back here | 07:00 |
| izinucs | wasabi, wget might work faster | 07:00 |
| Auctionedllama | idyllic, ok it brings up a program runner for root.. now what? | 07:00 |
| idyllic | Auctionedllama, type in your password and then you move your stuff. | 07:01 |
| wasabi_ | izinucs, okay i will try that next time. thunar is a very minimal manager isn't it? | 07:01 |
| idyllic | I am unable to mount any DVD with ubuntu hardy. Cds work fine though. Mounting was fine under gusty and the dvds are burnt in windows. Anyone is able to help me? | 07:01 |
| penny1 | glitsj16, a dock as in panels? yes, the main menu and also the task panel is all bottom rather than top. it's actually my wifes pc and she wanted it set up as close to windows look as possible | 07:01 |
| asmo[B] | I'm pretty sure I should have gone with 32bit instead of 64... | 07:01 |
| Auctionedllama | idyllic, swcheet, thanks aton | 07:01 |
| izinucs | wasabi, yep.. command line copy is typically faster even if your using cp | 07:01 |
| AeronTG | Flannel I sort of know how to back up things, but don't really have any system in place. | 07:02 |
| wasabi_ | izinucs, thanks for the tip i had no idea wget can be used for network transfer | 07:02 |
| glitsj16 | penny1: okay, will go over the pastes first, give me a few minutes .. | 07:02 |
| idyllic | I am unable to mount any DVD with ubuntu hardy. Cds work fine though. Mounting was fine under gusty and the dvds are burnt in windows. Anyone is able to help me? | 07:02 |
| izinucs | wasabi, just thought of it.. never tried it.. let me know.. should work though.. it's just another address. | 07:02 |
| penny1 | glitsj16, np thanks :) | 07:02 |
| AeronTG_ | Flannel: got booted | 07:03 |
| Flannel | AeronTG_: If you move your stuff to a separate partition, you'll be able to upgrade without the need for backng everything up | 07:04 |
| AeronTG_ | Flannel that article just doesn't seem clear to me on what I should do, step by step. i have no idea whether I should use 'hda5' or not. there are a bunch of comments below that article that suggest there are errors in the article | 07:06 |
| dog | what program do I use to make a .deb archive | 07:06 |
| wasabi_ | izinucs, wget does not work but there's something called smbget | 07:06 |
| wasabi_ | works the same way | 07:06 |
| AeronTG_ | Flannel that article just doesn't seem clear to me on what I should do, step by step. i have no idea whether I should use 'hda5' or not. there are a bunch of comments below that article that suggest there are errors in the article | 07:07 |
| AeronTG_ | Flannel don't know what happened to my previous post in here, got truncated or something | 07:07 |
| izinucs | wasabi, didn't know about that one.. I learn something new every day. | 07:07 |
| dog | ... | 07:07 |
| glitsj16 | penny1: quite a few warnings in there, but no clear errors .. i'm looking into the many 0's in your layout section .. please hold | 07:08 |
| Flannel | AeronTG_: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome might be a better article. Certainly more detailed | 07:08 |
| wasabi_ | izinucs, haha yep. | 07:08 |
| penny1 | glitsj16, thanks | 07:08 |
| lockd | is there any way to swap joystick axes? nexuiz is thinking throttle is X Axis 2 | 07:08 |
| Wispring | hello everyone, I am trying to get proftpd(FTP server) up and running and am having no luck...it is a minty fresh install with no changes to the default config....can anyone help me....right now i cannot connect to it | 07:08 |
| lockd | it's unusable that way, and setting up bindings doesn't work in nexuiz | 07:09 |
| AeronTG_ | Flannel doesn't seem that simple to me, maybe a little too risky. Perhaps i should just not bother with Firefox 3 :D | 07:10 |
| penny1 | also glitsj16, if this is any help, xorg.log.0 is not adding any new warning or errors when this problem happens | 07:10 |
| AeronTG_ | Flannel: also my printer is not printing, so i can't print out those instructions | 07:10 |
| Flannel | AeronTG_: Well, if you're uncomfortable, its always a good idea to just wait. Wait until you have backups, or whatnot. | 07:11 |
| glitsj16 | penny1: okay, i see you use the proprietary fglrx driver, have you tried the ati or radeon one before ? | 07:11 |
| dog | what program do I use to make a .deb archive? | 07:11 |
| gurukis | hi all. i want to remove apps that do not belongs to desktop apps. is there any list? | 07:11 |
| Wispring | if anyone here is familiar with setting up proftpd(FTP server) and could help me out that would be nice. It's a fresh install with the default config...problem i cannot connect to it | 07:12 |
| penny1 | glitsj16, yes. found a number of problems caused with screen resolution refusing to go above 800x600@60 no matter what the conf said, even when mode was set. it was like X was ignoring the conf file | 07:12 |
| glitsj16 | penny1: Xorg produces that log during boot, it doesn't add anything to it i believe, that's normal behaviour | 07:12 |
| penny1 | ok, I thought maybe it would update when errors occur :) | 07:13 |
| AeronTG_ | Flannel it really seems that i am not going to be able to create the separate home partition without running the LiveCD......if I could so all while logged on here, that would be one thing. | 07:13 |
| glitsj16 | penny1: ok, i'm going to check a few things and add some suggestions to your paste, could be 5 to 10 mnutes though | 07:13 |
| Flannel | AeronTG_: That's correct. You can't tweak partitions that are mounted | 07:14 |
| penny1 | np. I'll just duck outside for a smoke and coffee :) | 07:14 |
| glitsj16 | lol, good move | 07:14 |
| Quintin | failed in buffer_write(fd) blah blah. but I have tons of free space | 07:14 |
| penny1 | glitsj16, will let you know when I'm back :) | 07:14 |
| Wispring | i would gladly change to any FTP server program that would actually work | 07:14 |
| Theshorty | Hey! | 07:14 |
| glitsj16 | penny1: deal, enjou the ducking :) | 07:14 |
| lokuazzz | hello my friends | 07:15 |
| lokuazzz | i just install ubuntu to my laptop! its nice! | 07:16 |
| wasabi_ | izinucs, smbget is amazingly fast. i got 1.5 over nautilus but over smbget i get 2.3mb/s | 07:16 |
| Wispring | if anyone here can help get proftp(FTP server) program working i would greatly appreciate it. I just installed it and the config is default...problem i cannot connect to it | 07:16 |
| lokuazzz | but i have only 1 little problem.. wifi not working! | 07:16 |
| moshe | hi, is there a way to configure kio ftp, like maximum number of connections? | 07:16 |
| sleepster | does ubuntu have a very light, stable server build of ubuntu? | 07:16 |
| lokuazzz | and i install the broadcom proprietary driver | 07:17 |
| lokuazzz | but still not working | 07:17 |
| negge | Wispring: have you forwarded port 21? | 07:17 |
| sidneymccoy | greetings all | 07:17 |
| sauvin | sleepster, ubuntu is generally based on debian sid, which tend to be "cutting edge" rather than stable. If you're LOOKING for stable, why not try debian stable? | 07:17 |
| sleepster | sauvin: okay.. sounds good | 07:17 |
| Wispring | negge probably not if it's something i have to do at the command line | 07:17 |
| sleepster | sauvin: I need something fast, stable and reliable | 07:18 |
| sleepster | and small | 07:18 |
| sidneymccoy | have installed Hardy 8.04 on Toshiba Satellite A215-S5829 but cannot seem to get it connected | 07:18 |
| negge | Wispring: no it's something you do in your modem's configuration | 07:18 |
| Fear | hi | 07:18 |
| negge | unless you're connected directly to the internet (if you have a cable modem or PCI DSL-modem or similar) | 07:18 |
| Wispring | negge how is it done | 07:18 |
| madadam | Does someone can help me to partition my laptop hd for ubuntu installation? I've a problem deciding the format of a partition deidicated to data, considering that I've to use it with windows too | 07:18 |
| sac_san | i updated the kernel but the older version list still appears in the menu how do i uninstall the perivous kernel pacakge and is it safe to do so? | 07:19 |
| bullgard4 | Does (s)locate call a child process 'find' having user=nobody? | 07:19 |
| Wispring | i am willing to try just about anything at this point | 07:19 |
| sauvin | I can't answer for "small", but debian IS NOT SLOW, and it tends to be pretty damned stable. | 07:19 |
| negge | Wispring: check here: http://portforward.com/routers.htm | 07:19 |
| negge | madadam: you can use ext3 | 07:19 |

| RageMan | lokuazzz did you go to network and type in the name of your wireless connection yet? | 07:20 |
| amenado | iptunnel add vpn1 mode gre remote 61.21.21.12 local 69.102.102.23 key 1113333 <-- responds with ioctl: No such device ..isnt this the command to create a vpn1 link? | 07:20 |
| Felonious | this is what I get | 07:20 |
| Felonious | The image “file:///home/felonious/.gnome2/gnome-art/tmp/MCity-River.png” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors. | 07:20 |
| sac_san | i updated the kernel but the older version list still appears in the menu how do i uninstall the perivous kernel pacakge and is it safe to do so? | 07:20 |
| negge | madadam: I'm not sure with Vista but I doubt it, but there are third-party drivers that enables you to mount your ext3 filesystems like normal partitions | 07:20 |
| negge | I use it everyday (although I'm on XP) | 07:20 |
| kininja | Wispring: Are you trying to run this ftp server on the net? Or just on a lan? | 07:21 |
| lokuazzz | RAGEMAN no I didnt.. how can i do that? please advice me | 07:21 |
| amenado | sac_san-> modify your menu.lst to not show the old kernel? | 07:21 |
| sidneymccoy | I've followed all the UbuntuForums suggested solutions for the ndiswrapper & Atheros 802.11 but still no luck | 07:21 |
| negge | sac_san: you mean the GRUB menu? | 07:21 |
| sac_san | yep! | 07:21 |
| RageMan | systen/admin/network it will ask for your pass | 07:21 |
| sac_san | won' t the older version eat up space? | 07:22 |
| negge | sac_san so do you want to remove all the old kernels? | 07:22 |
| amenado | sac_san-> very little space | 07:22 |
| wasabi_ | wasabi, | 07:22 |
| RageMan | select wireless and see if your connection is showing | 07:22 |
| khin | anyone know any programs that covert from a MS WordPad (.rtf) file to text or HTML | 07:22 |
| madadam | negge I have to leave a opartition for vista, it's enough to leave deallocated space? Or Have I to initialize a partition? | 07:22 |
| khin | i am trying to use 'unrtf' but it doesn't work | 07:22 |
| wasabi_ | hmm how do i get xchat to highlight my name when someone uses it? | 07:22 |
| Wispring | kininja both | 07:22 |
| sac_san | negge how much approx. | 07:22 |
| khin | i am not sure what the problem is | 07:22 |
| amenado | !who | RageMan | 07:22 |
| ubottu | RageMan: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 07:22 |
| wasabi_ | wasabi_, | 07:22 |
| wasabi_ | oh nvm | 07:22 |
| negge | sac_san: I don't know, maybe 50 megabytes per kernel | 07:22 |
| negge | madadam: it's okay to leave it unallocated, windows will allocate it for you when you install it | 07:23 |
| sac_san | is it safe to uninstall? | 07:23 |
| RageMan | ubottu okay | 07:23 |
| ubottu | Factoid okay not found | 07:23 |
| dog | !deb | 07:23 |
| ubottu | deb is the Debian package format, also used by Ubuntu. To install .deb files, simply double-click (in Ubuntu) or click (in Kubuntu) on them to start the GDebi utility. | 07:23 |
| negge | sac_san: I'm not sure how to do it but | 07:23 |
| negge | if you really need space you should cut down on something else | 07:23 |
| Prez00 | hello | 07:23 |

| Auctionedllama | Hey, does anyone know how I can completely disable emerald theme manager? It seems to be interfering with my regular theme, and things are all messed up.. | 07:23 |
| madadam | negge, just a last question.... how have I to set the data partition logical or primary? | 07:24 |
| negge | dog: you can use checkinstall | 07:24 |
| Wispring | kininja yes i did try to connect through local host so therefore no go through router ...when i try to connect to it with fire fox still no connect. i can connect to other ftp sites through firefox | 07:24 |

| sac_san | negge: how can i connect to other system using 'remote desktop' ? | 07:25 |

| Noodles740 | i am trying to dual boot ubuntu with the pre-installed windows vista on my toshiba machine. the install of ubuntu goes great until i get to the partition utility, where ubuntu does not see the free space on my hard drive. is there any way to remedy this problem without totally deleting vista? | 07:32 |
| negge | sac_san: I just type sudo apt-get install unrar and it works I never bothered with figuring out the difference between the two | 07:32 |
| RageMan | schoowork: I wondered that too, I thik there may be a tutorial in the forums | 07:32 |
| Metatron2 | thats not it, ugg i used to know | 07:32 |
| kininja | Metatron2: Try ctl-alt f1 through f7 | 07:32 |
| negge | Noodles740: free space is not enough, you'll have to have free unpartitioned (unallocated) space on your drive. Use Vistas disk management tool to resize it | 07:32 |
| lokuazzz | how do i shose my account i click new? | 07:32 |
| Noodles740 | yes i unallocated it also | 07:33 |
| kininja | Metatron2: That first suggestion, to clarify was: | 07:33 |
| kininja | Metatron2: Control + A and then C | 07:33 |
| kininja | And then Control + A and then Space or Delete. Not sure which "screen" your're in" | 07:33 |
| RageMan | lokuazzz: does your connection show up in wifi-radar now? | 07:33 |
| lokuazzz | no it does not | 07:33 |
| lokuazzz | is blank | 07:33 |
| lokuazzz | there are only 4 options.. new, edit, delete and connect | 07:34 |
| sac_san | negge: did it thnks... | 07:34 |
| Noodles740 | i only have two options "Guided-Use entire disk" and "Manual" | 07:34 |
| lokuazzz | but there are no info about any connection | 07:34 |
| kininja | I hope I didn't send Metatron to a virtual terminal without his knowing... | 07:34 |
| Metatron2 | ah ill try that | 07:34 |
| RageMan | lokuazzz: try adding it as new, when I open mine theres like 27 connections in there. | 07:34 |
| sidneymccoy | RageMan: will try installing wifi-rader now | 07:35 |
| new2linux | how to keep the icons on the desktop allign? as the alligning been chosen but the icons keep scrumbled | 07:35 |
| Auctionedllama | CAN SOMEONE JUST PLEASE TELL ME HOW I UNISTALL EMERALD AND SWITCH BACK TO METACITY PLEASE D: | 07:35 |
| sac_san | negge: do u know abt elisa? | 07:35 |
| orphean | Auctionedllama: metacity --replace then aptitude purge emerald | 07:36 |
| negge | sac_san: yeah, but they're not my ISP | 07:36 |
| lokuazzz | i see | 07:36 |
| negge | Noodles740: I guess you'll have to use manual mode then | 07:36 |
| lokuazzz | im trying to adding it as new | 07:36 |
| Auctionedllama | thank you orphean, I will give it a try | 07:36 |
| lokuazzz | i use auto | 07:36 |
| Metatron2 | nope, not it but if foudn it! ctrl+alt +f1-f9 | 07:36 |
| RageMan | new2linux: right click on your desktop there should be an option to align | 07:36 |
| sac_san | negge: nup! the elisa multimedia software? | 07:36 |
| Metatron2 | ugg thats a new logon screen | 07:36 |
| negge | sac_san: aah:D unfortunetaly no | 07:37 |
| new2linux | rageman: done that, but whenever there are new icons, it just scrumbled again | 07:37 |
| negge | Metatron2: you got your screen working? | 07:37 |
| Jaredu | anyone know how to add trevino repositories.. | 07:37 |
| new2linux | rageman: some new icons are there on top of the old icons | 07:37 |
| RageMan | new2linux: I noticed that too, I wondered if it was just me or a bug | 07:37 |
| Auctionedllama | orphean, yes it worked! but it seems it killed my compiz | 07:37 |
| Noodles740 | well even when i use manual mode, i get a message about there being a problem with the "root" file system or something like that | 07:37 |
| new2linux | rageman: you just have to reposition the new icons, uncheck the allign and check the allign back again | 07:37 |
| negge | Jaredu: if you know the address to the repository you just open a terminal and edit /etc/apt/sources.list | 07:38 |
| Metatron2 | yeah, i got extra log on scren, i can log on multiple times and have like virtual terminals | 07:38 |
| sac_san | negge: ok i'll ask from community | 07:38 |
| new2linux | rageman: seems the allign option is not doing it's job | 07:38 |
| kininja | Metatron2: Run screen on the command line and you won't have to re-login each time.... ;-) | 07:38 |
| darthanubis | anyone using totems mythtv plugin? | 07:38 |
| RageMan | new2linux: yeah I guess since otehr people are noticing that it must be a bug | 07:38 |
| Jaredu | negge: I've never added a repository so i have no clue how to go about doing that o.O | 07:38 |
| Metatron2 | like irc on one and aptitude in another | 07:38 |
| sac_san | Does any body know abt "ELISA" Multimedia software | 07:38 |
| orphean | Auctionedllama: that's odd. try compiz-decorator --replace | 07:38 |
| Metatron2 | does screen need xorg, dont have it yet | 07:39 |
| new2linux | rageman: how to report the bug? | 07:39 |
| Auctionedllama | orphean, will these deleted my configuration files for compiz? It seems its still here, just can't turn it on | 07:39 |
| negge | Jaredu: Okay, then you can do it the other way by opening Synaptic and click Repositories or something like that, I don't know exactly what it says | 07:39 |
| new2linux | maybe it will be fix and delivered on the next patch | 07:39 |
| new2linux | it's not a big thing, but quite bothering | 07:39 |
| kuja | I've got a *very* bad problem on one of our production servers running Ubuntu Gutsy server. | 07:39 |
| Jaredu | what would be the apt line | 07:39 |
| orphean | Auctionedllama: no it shouldn't, emerald is a seperate thing entirely from compiz. | 07:39 |
| negge | Jaredu: but basically all you have to do is open the sources.list file and paste the trevino repository address on a new line, then save the file and do sudo apt-get update | 07:39 |
| RageMan | new2linux:apps/programming report bug | 07:39 |
| kuja | It seems that unknown hosts get resolved to the local machine itself. Anyone know what could cause this? | 07:39 |
| kininja | Metatron2: Nope | 07:39 |
| kininja | Maybe ncurses... but it should run on a console | 07:39 |
| kuja | The machine's IP is 218.54.139.105: attempt to resolve any unknown host resolves as 218.54.139.105… any help would be appreciated. | 07:40 |
| Auctionedllama | orphean, ok found it.. turns out all my configs for compiz were purged.. D: Thanks a lot though, just gotta reconfigure | 07:40 |
| kininja | Metatron2: Just run screen and then type Ctl + A and then the question mark (?) | 07:40 |

| bullgard4 | Does (s)locate call a child process 'find' having user=nobody? | 07:42 |
| arlosmar | knows* | 07:42 |
| Noodles740 | i still have problems there. | 07:42 |
| Rat409 | /part | 07:42 |
| negge | Noodles740: what do you need help with? | 07:42 |
| Noodles740 | it says there is a problem with the "root" file system | 07:42 |
| RageMan | arlosmar: go to the fonts in apperance and select a smaller font for title bar | 07:42 |
| negge | Noodles740: okay. Manually partitioning isn't that easy but it isn't that hard either. Basically you have to create two partitions on your free space, one is the main partition and the other the swap. When you create the main partition you have to set Mount point to "/" (without the quotes). That should solve your problem | 07:43 |
| arlosmar | RageMan it's true, i didn't think about this obvious idea | 07:43 |
| arlosmar | thanks | 07:43 |
| arlosmar | RageMan another interesting theme for ubuntu? | 07:43 |
| RageMan | arlosmar:esco is a sweet thin title bar theme | 07:44 |
| FAJALOU | hmmm ok _ryan_ so now the driver is installed, but my monitor is stuck on 640*480... | 07:44 |
| Noodles740 | thank you... | 07:44 |
| FAJALOU | and extra effects isn't turning on... :| | 07:44 |
| arlosmar | because with the default theme, when i receive a message in the msn, is difficult to see the intermitent color in the task bar | 07:44 |

| draven | amirman84, nope, i can grab the torrent thanks | 07:55 |
| GreggHouse | sidneymccoy, could you please paste the output of the commands you've run? | 07:55 |
| sidneymccoy | GreggHouse: what commands would you like me to run? | 07:56 |
| jgoo | not too serious | 07:56 |
| GreggHouse | sidneymccoy, the ones on that tutorial, what happened when you ran them earlier? | 07:56 |
| jgoo | Myrtti, bash.org should be required reading for all irc chans ! | 07:57 |
| GreggHouse | jgoo, differential diagnosis: you don't know when to stop. I'll prescribe a year's subscription of Playboy to keep you busy | 07:58 |
| GreggHouse | he left :/ | 07:58 |
| sidneymccoy | GreggHouse: "echo "blacklist ath_pci" >> /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist" results in no output and returns to prompt | 07:58 |
| GreggHouse | well yah | 07:58 |
| GreggHouse | what about ndiswrapper -i net5211.inf, sidneymccoy? | 07:59 |
| Noodles740 | one problem resolved, now another. the partition utility has some diffuculty creating the swap partion, then sends me to the main partition screen again. | 07:59 |
| sidneymccoy | GreggHouse: "ndiswrapper -i net5211.inf" outputs "driver net5211 is already installed" | 08:00 |
| GreggHouse | wait, pastebin me your /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | 08:00 |
| sidneymccoy | GreggHouse: and of course "ndiswrapper -l" outputs "net5211 : driver installed" | 08:00 |
| sidneymccoy | GreggHouse: not sure how to "pastebin ..." | 08:01 |
| nucs | helo | 08:01 |

| Elitest | Hey erbody | 08:02 |
| Bodsda | hi | 08:02 |
| GreggHouse | Elitest, what are your symptoms? | 08:03 |
| anathematic | hi i'm trying to setup a public key so i can ssh from one server into my ubuntu server but it keeps asking me for the passpharse for whenever i try to enter now, any ideas? | 08:03 |
| sidneymccoy | ubottu: thank you | 08:03 |
| ubottu | You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 08:03 |
| * GreggHouse limps over to Elitest's gurney and pops some vikadin | 08:03 | |
| Elitest | None just seeing if I can help out | 08:03 |
| Bodsda | anathematic, when you created the key, you had to enter a passphrase | 08:03 |
| GreggHouse | Elitest, You be Foreman then. | 08:04 |
| anathematic | Bodsda: that's right but i didn't expect to have to enter the passpharse everytime i entered from now on? :< | 08:04 |
| Elitest | George? | 08:04 |
| GreggHouse | Nevermind, Elitest. | 08:04 |
| snarkster | any answers on printing directly to tiff or jepg using cups? | 08:04 |
| anathematic | does the passpharse have to be stored somewhere or something? | 08:04 |
| Elitest | Haha | 08:04 |
| Noodles740 | does anyone know why ubuntu cannot create the partitions necessary to install? | 08:04 |
| RageMan | I have a quick question? after 5 or 6 months of using ubuntu with no problems, 3 days ago someone popped up in my network folder with there c drive folder, how did that happen? | 08:04 |
| GreggHouse | snarkster, what do you mean? | 08:04 |
| Bodsda | anathematic, you dont, just the first time, you set the password keyring to remember it with a tick box on the box which asks for the passphrase | 08:04 |
| negge | Noodles740: still having problems? | 08:04 |
| Noodles740 | new problems. | 08:05 |
| negge | what? | 08:05 |
| anathematic | Bodsda: i'm using ubuntu server so i haven't seen any tick box | 08:05 |
| Kartagis | does apt-cache show <packagename> show information from my system or from ubuntu repos? | 08:05 |
| snarkster | GreggHouse: I want to setup a virtual printer to dump stuff directly to image (tiff for b&w and jpeg for color) | 08:05 |
| Flannel | Kartagis: Repos (well, the package itself) | 08:05 |
| Flannel | Kartagis: Are you looking for versions installed? | 08:05 |
| Bodsda | anathematic, ah,. well im not sure about it then im afraid,.,.sorry | 08:05 |
| snarkster | GreggHouse: Im currently scouring the web for answers | 08:05 |
| sidneymccoy | GreggHouse: http://paste.ubuntu.com/21092/ | 08:05 |
| Kartagis | Flannel: that too | 08:05 |
| anathematic | Bodsda: no problem :) | 08:05 |
| Flannel | Kartagis: apt-cache policy <package> | 08:05 |
| Noodles740 | now i can move on the the partioning process, but it displays and error message when it tries to partion the swap space at about 15% complete | 08:05 |
| anathematic | anyone else maybe? | 08:05 |
| lokuazzz | how can i check what wifi card i have?? | 08:05 |
| lokuazzz | can someone help me please | 08:06 |
| GreggHouse | snarkster, Um, can't you just "print to file" and do whatever you want with that? | 08:06 |
| Kartagis | lokuazzz: lspci | 08:06 |
| negge | Noodles740: hmm | 08:06 |
| Bodsda | lokuazzz, try lspci | 08:06 |
| Noodles740 | then it sends me back to the partiton screen | 08:06 |
| GreggHouse | sidneymccoy, looking | 08:06 |
| * GreggHouse limps over to the internet | 08:06 | |
| Bodsda | Noodles740, is this guided or manual partitioning? | 08:06 |
| Noodles740 | both | 08:07 |
| ajhtiredwolf | Hey I just made and sftp server, but even though i have the home directory set to a specific place. when connected people can still change to directorys i dont want available | 08:07 |
| Bodsda | Noodles740, it happens no matter which you pick? | 08:07 |
| GreggHouse | sidneymccoy, and you can't see any networks? | 08:07 |
| ajhtiredwolf | how do i make only the default directory they go to and all sub-directorys of that the only ones available | 08:07 |
| Noodles740 | ive done both, and get the same result | 08:07 |
| snarkster | GreggHouse: Right I can print to PDF but then must convert the resulting pdf to tiff or jpeg.. time consuming. If i can get a tiff printer for windows there must be away to do it in linux | 08:07 |
| ikonia | Noodles740: are you using a raid disk by any chance ? | 08:08 |
| Bodsda | Noodles740, its sound like a bad copy,.,. redownload, check with md5 burn at a slower speed, if that fails try the alternate cd | 08:08 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: thats a technique called "chroot" | 08:08 |
| sidneymccoy | GreggHouse: both Wireless Networks and WiFi-Radar are grey | 08:08 |
| GreggHouse | snarkster, Hmmm... Differential diagnosis: ...we need a brain biopsy | 08:08 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, hmm, what do i do exactly? | 08:08 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: or you could be more strict with the permissions | 08:08 |
| Noodles740 | i do not believe so. i was able to install windows xp with out getting tht raid drivers, so i do not believe it is a raid disk | 08:08 |
| GreggHouse | sidewalk, is the device itself on? | 08:08 |
| MrKeuner | hi, anybody else having problem running opeoffice.org after recent upgrade today to 2.4.1? | 08:08 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: you need to set your users directories to be "chrooted" or be more specific and secure with the permissions | 08:09 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, i unchekced al lthe permissions | 08:09 |
| snarkster | GreggHouse: LOL.. Im bald here and pulling out hair | 08:09 |
| MrKeuner | soffice runs, soffice -writer locks up | 08:09 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: unchecked all the permissions ?? what gui are you using ? | 08:09 |
| Bodsda | ajhtiredwolf, why!? | 08:09 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, im using UBUNTU gnome | 08:09 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: then how did you setup the sftp server ? | 08:09 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: I'm not aware of a gui to do this | 08:09 |
| ajhtiredwolf | Bodsda, all i want this account to be able to do is upload and download to the target directory | 08:09 |
| sidneymccoy | GreggHouse: to confirm operation, have dual-booted back to Vista with no issue | 08:09 |
| * GreggHouse mutters something about Clinic hours while popping vikadin | 08:09 | |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, in here they just told me to install the ssh-server, then just add users through the user gui | 08:10 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: ok, so give the users write and read permissons to that directory only and remove permissions on the directory above it | 08:10 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: ok - so you've not changed the permissions then | 08:10 |

| ikonia | Balachmar: thats a good choice | 08:14 |

| Bodsda | sidneymccoy, whats the prob?? | 08:14 |
| * GreggHouse limps onto his motorcycle, pops some vikadin, and rides him | 08:14 | |
| kininja | Whoops, he's logged off... | 08:14 |
| Balachmar | ikonia: I choose softwareRAID to not get f***ed if my MB dies and isn't available anymore | 08:15 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, it says permission denied when i try and connect now | 08:15 |
| Bodsda | ajhtiredwolf, sudo | 08:15 |
| ikonia | Balachmar: well, you can start by not using that sort of language, there is no need for it, thats the best way to have a discussion about this | 08:15 |
| ajhtiredwolf | Bodsda, im trying to connect through a ftp client | 08:15 |
| sidneymccoy | RageMan: thank you for your input ... have located variety of suggestions, but all generally describe the same solution which has no joy yet :( | 08:15 |
| Balachmar | ikonia: ok sorry about that | 08:16 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: your trying to go through an ftp client | 08:16 |
| Bodsda | ajhtiredwolf, oh, you need to add yourself to the group who has permissions for it (im not too sure with servers im afraid) | 08:16 |
| Balachmar | ikonia: watching too many american tv series I guess | 08:16 |
| RageMan | sidneymccoy np | 08:16 |
| tunys | hey, sidneymccoy | 08:17 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, right, after i did that command, now it says permission deneid when it tries to open the home directory when i connect | 08:17 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: this is hard to do without knowing the permissions on your machine | 08:17 |
| tunys | check the Ubuntu forums if you haven't already | 08:17 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: is your user the owner/in the group of the home directory ? | 08:17 |
| tunys | if you can't find a topic on your issue, make one. | 08:17 |
| tunys | People there are great. | 08:17 |
| sidneymccoy | Bodsda: http://tinyurl.com/5fvmjg does not seem to work for my new Satellite A215-S5829 | 08:17 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, the user im trying to setup for this directory? | 08:17 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: yes, who is the owner/group owner of the home directory for that user ? | 08:17 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, or the user im using right now ? | 08:17 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, itself | 08:17 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: the user your trying to connect as | 08:17 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, its in group name average | 08:17 |
| moosah | I just installed ubuntu on my gateway c140xl tablet pc with ATI mobilit radeon 2300 and everything went fine but when i start my system i get a blank screen when it tries to start x | 08:17 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, and its named average | 08:18 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: what user account and group owns the actual home directory | 08:18 |
| Bodsda | sidneymccoy, come out of any application using sound, then type in a terminal killall pulseaudio i had the same problem and this fix's it, well for that session., the fix i used was to completely remove pulseaudio, its caused more problems then its solved tbh | 08:19 |
| Bodsda | at least, it fixed mine | 08:19 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, the directory is /media/files/FTPServer/average. the main group is average. THe user is average | 08:19 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: and the permissions on average are 775 say ? | 08:19 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, not sure :-\ | 08:20 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: as in chmod -R 775 /media/files/FTPServer/average | 08:20 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, no i did the sudo chmod 761 /media/files/FTPServer/average | 08:20 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: ok, ajhtiredwolf do sudo chmod -R 775 /media/files/FTPServer/average | 08:20 |
| Bodsda | ajhtiredwolf, you should do the other one first then that one | 08:20 |
| FAJALOU | ok so now it is on 1280*whatever. | 08:20 |
| FAJALOU | but i still can't choose 1440*900 | 08:21 |

| FAJALOU | KC no worries | 08:21 |
| FAJALOU | what's up? | 08:21 |
| Bodsda | welcome KC | 08:21 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, but i cna still cahnge directories | 08:21 |
| Bodsda | how can we help? | 08:21 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, like to the root directory | 08:21 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: which root directory | 08:22 |
| Bodsda | ajhtiredwolf, yeah, but you cant do anything there? | 08:22 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, /root | 08:22 |
| ajhtiredwolf | Bodsda, dont think so, but i dont want anyone to view files on my computer :p | 08:22 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: so you actually want to jail your user, not lock the permissions | 08:22 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, mm guess so | 08:22 |
| Bodsda | chroot? | 08:22 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: you need to look into chrooting the users then | 08:22 |
| Bodsda | !chroot | 08:22 |
| ubottu | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot use this to build 32 bit environments on a 64 bit box | 08:22 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, hows that done? | 08:22 |
| KC | FAJALOU: thx | 08:22 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: this will be quite a tedious task for you | 08:22 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, oh.. lame | 08:22 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: Bodsda just posted a link | 08:22 |
| ajhtiredwolf | how tedious are we talking heh? | 08:23 |
| KC | and thx Bodsda also.. lol | 08:23 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: good 30 minutes to setup | 08:23 |
| RageMan | KC: how do you like ubuntu so far? | 08:23 |
| khin | anyone know a good way to convert large numbers of word files to plain text or html | 08:23 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, well i just want this to be really secure | 08:23 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: then pay someone who knows what they are doing | 08:23 |
| FAJALOU | so now i can get into nvidia-settings, so how can i use 1440*900? | 08:23 |
| KC | RageMan: 2weeks.. | 08:23 |
| Metatron | how can i increase the sudo password time limit | 08:23 |
| ikonia | Metatron: I /think/ thats controlled via pam | 08:24 |
| cjk2 | type faster. | 08:24 |
| RageMan | KC: have you dumped windows yet....took me all of 2 days to dump it. | 08:24 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, hmmm, so im not going to be able to make it secure? | 08:24 |
| KC | and i hate vista, just like a fat women.. | 08:24 |
| Bodsda | Metatron, i no sudo -k resets it,.,. try man sudo | 08:24 |
| duard | anyone from Argentina here ? | 08:24 |
| RageMan | KC: ditto | 08:24 |

HOW? | 08:24 |
| KC | RageMan: yeah,, | 08:25 |
| Bodsda | KC, RageMan -- sorry to be a pain, but could you use #ubuntu-offtopic for random chatter please | 08:25 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: well, from what I'm reading your reasonably new to using linux, if you want it properly secure, I suggest you pay a proffesional to set it up, as learning on a required secure platform is not the best idea | 08:25 |
| SaraSmith | apologies for bold.. don't know why mirc did that | 08:25 |
| Bodsda | SaraSmith, its not bold | 08:25 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, so this could open me up to being attacked ? opening up the ssh client is potentially dangerous? | 08:26 |
| ikonia | SaraSmith: What ubuntu cd are you using, the desktop ? | 08:26 |
| SaraSmith | what to do to get it to work? | 08:26 |
| Metatron | SaraSmith what do u mean by see the internet, you mean in a command line install or server install? | 08:26 |
| RageMan | Bodsda: np Im still new to this irc thing, and I do know better...my bad | 08:26 |
| FAJALOU | so now i can get into nvidia-settings, so how can i use 1440*900? | 08:26 |
| Bodsda | ajhtiredwolf, whenever you allow anything but yourself to have any sort of access to your machine, its dangerous | 08:26 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: any system resources on the interenet that is not secure, potentially dangerous, anything that can give shell access super dangerous | 08:26 |
| tech0007 | when i start hardy, i have 180+ processes, that goes up to 220+ as i work. am i using too many programs? what's the regular number of processes on hardy? | 08:26 |
| Bodsda | RageMan, its ok, its just this channel is for support, and #ubuntu-offtopic is for chatter ;~) | 08:27 |
| ikonia | tech0007: depends on your setup | 08:27 |
| ajhtiredwolf | alright... so would an ftp be more secure then? | 08:27 |
| ikonia | tech0007: I have 761 running by default | 08:27 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: no, thats clear text, and still an exploitable resource | 08:27 |
| tech0007 | ikonia: i only added tilda..what! 761 by default? | 08:27 |
| ikonia | tech0007: not by default, on my laptop | 08:27 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, i guess what im asking is, is doing this so dangerous that i shoudlnt even bother with it? | 08:27 |
| ikonia | tech0007: but I'm using it show that you don't have a high process count | 08:28 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: thats your call | 08:28 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, is there a way to turn it on and off easily like an ftp? | 08:28 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: stop and start the ssh daemon | 08:28 |
| tech0007 | ikonia: ok..i only use this desktop to browse the internet and do some word processing... | 08:28 |
| ikonia | tech0007: 200 is not a lot | 08:28 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, or maybe just close the port? | 08:28 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: enable/disable a firewall blocking the port then | 08:29 |
| Metatron | SaraSmith ? | 08:29 |
| SaraSmith | ikonia it's a hardy cd, the computer is a desktop type | 08:29 |
| Muhammad_Saad | Hello, I want to make a custom Ubuntu based live CD. I have searched Google but could not find an easy way. Can someone help? | 08:29 |
| ikonia | SaraSmith: which hardy cd, that doesn't look like the ubuntu desktop cd | 08:29 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, i mean i have port forwarding on right now, could just disable it, would that be sufficient you think? | 08:29 |
| quinn | is there a way to turn on my computer at 7:00 everyday? | 08:29 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: well if you disable it there is no access to that port, so yes, thats the same as firewalling it in principal | 08:30 |
| Metatron | SaraSmith what is your internet setup, broadband? wireless? ethernet? usb? | 08:30 |
| ikonia | quinn: buy a power managment switch | 08:30 |
| moosah | I just installed ubuntu on my gateway c140xl tablet pc with ATI mobilit radeon 2300 and everything went fine but when i start my system i get a blank screen when it tries to start x. What could be wrong?!?!?! | 08:30 |
| quinn | i forgot it ,thx | 08:30 |

| ikonia | quinn: cron | 08:33 |
| ikonia | dts: not really | 08:33 |
| livingdaylight | SaraSmith: how youdoing? | 08:34 |
| ikonia | dts: a real install is the best way | 08:34 |
| quinn | ikonia, cron? | 08:34 |
| ikonia | quinn: crontab | 08:34 |
| glitsj16 | BeBoBli: i admit it isn't transparent, but with http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4928900 and http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/PerfectSetup for guidance it can produce impressive results on simple hardware (that doesn't answer your question, io realize that :) ) | 08:34 |
| quinn | ikonia, daemon to execute scheduled commands, | 08:34 |
| dts | the problem is ikonia that it's on a remote machine and i don't really have any other access too it | 08:34 |

| BezNalogov | Hi people. I have ubuntu 8.04 and my firefox has just been updated. Only the print problem is still there in my firefox. Is this a known problem? Is there a way to fix it? | 08:36 |
| ikonia | khin: why ? whats the problem with asking your spouse to make (burn) a cd for you ? | 08:36 |
| livingdaylight | SaraSmith: #ubuntu-women | 08:36 |
| ikonia | BezNalogov: what is "the problem" | 08:36 |
| strawks | Hi all, does ubuntu have a special way of managing memory? http://rafb.net/p/XxSINL44.html <-- 2Gb total, 77MB free, 5MB buffers, 83MB cache, 330MB total RSS and 640MB swap ! | 08:36 |
| ikonia | strawks: what's the issue with that ? | 08:37 |
| BezNalogov | That it's not possible to print under firefox | 08:37 |
| yigal42 | I have a driver I am attempting to blacklist using "blacklist <driver_name>" in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist but everytime I lsmod | grep <driver> there it is, it just won't die | 08:37 |
| yigal42 | can someone help | 08:37 |
| BeBoBli | glitsj16, Help anyways. Thanks. | 08:37 |
| ikonia | BezNalogov: can you print outside firefox ? | 08:37 |
| BezNalogov | I am trying to print to a network printer | 08:37 |
| BezNalogov | Yes I can print in every program | 08:37 |
| BezNalogov | This was a known problem in the beta version of firefox and would be fixed with the latest update | 08:37 |
| glitsj16 | BeBoBli: it's a read, but it's worth it, hope it solves your sound issues | 08:37 |
| ikonia | BezNalogov: Hmmm thats odd, as firefox should just use cups the same as every other | 08:37 |
| strawks | ikonia: 330MB resident used by progs, but only 165MB free (counting buffers and cache), who is using the other 1.5GB ? | 08:38 |
| BezNalogov | Wait, let me show you what I mean | 08:38 |
| khin | ikonia no problem. Just unique | 08:38 |
| Keith | Earlier someone suggested that the new kernel cleaned up the issues with Flash and sound. I'm still having the same problem (while a flash app is running nothing else has audio). Is there something I need to do to get the fix to work? | 08:39 |
| Jubal | wow lots of people in here. who can i speak to about Synaptic Package Manager not loading? | 08:39 |
| ikonia | strawks: I think the word "used" is miss-leading in the current kernel (not just ubuntu) think of it free as "controlled by the kernel" and free as "not allocated by the kernel" | 08:39 |
| tech0007 | !ask | Jubal | 08:39 |
| ubottu | Jubal: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 08:39 |
| ikonia | strawks: sorry, think of "used" as "controlled by the kernel" and "free" as "not allocated by the kernel" | 08:40 |
| ikonia | strawks: does that make more sense ? | 08:40 |
| glitsj16 | Keith: have you seen a suggested fix for flash sound hijacking at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4928900 ? (Parts A and B specifically) | 08:41 |
| strawks | ikonia: I still don't understand why this system is swapping so much nor who is using that much ram | 08:41 |
| strawks | ikonia: I can't even malloc 200Mb without swapping | 08:41 |
| ikonia | strawks: the system will swap out "unused" processes to disk | 08:41 |
| ikonia | strawks: ooh, really, you can't malloc 200mb, thats not right | 08:42 |
| X-Seti | :) | 08:42 |
| peacepipejv | firefox seems stuck in offline mode even though i can ping in the terminal. Using a USB modem and have configured a number of notebooks with same set up with no problems | 08:42 |
| X-Seti | Morning all | 08:42 |
| ikonia | strawks: I'm paying more attention to what you've got running now | 08:42 |
| Mez | peacepipejv, File->Work offline | 08:42 |
| Keith | glitsj16: no I havn't, I'll read up | 08:42 |
| Jubal | !ask when I go System->Administration->Synaptic Package Manager I get a "Starting Administrative Application" message and then nothing afterwards. If I click on the "X Updates Available" tooltip (top-right corner) it will give me a list of things I can install, but selecting even just one and clicking "Install Updates" will just cause the window to become unresponsive. Is this a known issue? | 08:43 |
| ubottu | Jubal: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 08:43 |
| * X-Seti checks the forums | 08:43 | |
| dts | How do I install the 64-bit sun-jvm package on a 32-bit system which has a custom 64 bit kernel | 08:43 |
| strawks | ikonia: I'll try closing all apps and see what happen, but I doubt I'll see more than 400MB free or cached | 08:43 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, is there a way to set permissions for me to move files into and out of that directory ? | 08:43 |
| yigal42 | is there a way to find why a kernel module can't be unloaded? | 08:43 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: sure, just put the write permissions on the target directory for the user you want to move | 08:43 |
| Jubal | oops !ask didn't really work. Do others in this chan see what I typed just above? I don't want to spam by posting it all again. | 08:44 |
| ikonia | yigal42: which module | 08:44 |
| ikonia | strawks: just adding up what you've got running (not residial foot print, but in use memory) | 08:44 |
| peacepipejv | mez: duh, thanks. I new it was somewhere. | 08:44 |
| X-Seti | whats the best way to backup ubuntu, not just whats been installed, but everything you have installed yourself, can you clone the partitions, even if you have a ntfs partition | 08:44 |
| yigal42 | ikonia: blacklist snd_atiixp_modem | 08:44 |
| ikonia | yigal42: so you've put the module in the blacklist file, and rebooted yes ? | 08:45 |
| yigal42 | ikonia: I am using wifi, and it hopefully is making my sound fail | 08:45 |
| yigal42 | ikonia: yes | 08:45 |
| mohkohn | Is there a limit to the number of primary partitions on a hard disk? | 08:45 |
| ikonia | yigal42: if you do a modinfo on it, what does it say ? | 08:45 |
| ikonia | mohkohn: 4 on a dos label | 08:45 |
| X-Seti | mohkohn, one prim | 08:45 |
| Jubal | when I go System->Administration->Synaptic Package Manager I get a "Starting Administrative Application" message and then nothing afterwards. If I click on the "X Updates Available" tooltip (top-right corner) it will give me a list of things I can install, but selecting even just one and clicking "Install Updates" will just cause the window to become unresponsive. Is this a known issue? I'm quite new to Linux, sorry for bei | 08:46 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, is this like a chmod thing again for that directory? | 08:46 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: thats right | 08:46 |
| yigal42 | ikonia: thank you | 08:46 |
| mohkohn | So it looks like multibooting linux, mac, xp and solaris is out of the question | 08:46 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, which number applys to which user? | 08:46 |
| yigal42 | ikonia: I will unload the dependencies first and cross my fingers | 08:46 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: the username applys to the user, the numbers are the permissions read/write/execute etc | 08:46 |
| ikonia | yigal42: thats what I'm thinking, yes | 08:46 |
| dpince | I've a question about dual-booting that may sound dumb, afterall I am still new to ubuntu and dual-booting in general. Right now I'm running with ubuntu as my main OS, is it possible to install windows XP to dual boot with, and maybe at a later time overwrite the windows XP partition with my ubuntu one so that ubuntu has control of my whole harddrive again? | 08:47 |
| ikonia | yigal42: I don't know how dependencies override / if they overrid blacklisting | 08:47 |
| livingdaylight | Kann somoene tell me how i can check whether i hafe blueteeth activated??? and how i kann de-aktivate it? Sanx | 08:47 |
| mohkohn | virtualbox is an option | 08:47 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, like sudo chmod *user* /directory/ ? | 08:47 |
| ajhtiredwolf | woops | 08:47 |
| livingdaylight | I use Ubuntu + Gnome | 08:47 |
| yigal42 | ikonia: all I know is that I did blacklist it and it is installed, I'm fine with manually unloading it and then working out the details later | 08:47 |
| generic | hi all i want to do A3 printing in ubuntu how i do this | 08:47 |
| ajhtiredwolf | ikonia, sudo chmod *user* *number* /directory/ | 08:47 |
| ikonia | ajhtiredwolf: no, nothing like that, type "man chmod" to understand how to use chmod, or just use the nautlius gui | 08:48 |
| ikonia | yigal42: try the deps | 08:48 |
| strawks | ikonia: much better : Mem: 2062792 257420 1805372 0 5500 73124 | 08:48 |
| ikonia | strawks: ooh, I didn't think you'd get that much back | 08:48 |
| ikonia | strawks: looks like something was hogging | 08:48 |
| strawks | ikonia: I don't know which process was doing that, maybe gvfsd | 08:48 |
| chazco | Hi... i'm going to have one last attempt at installing Ubuntu later... is there any prefered server known to be stable (before anyone asks i'm not concerned about Firefox)? | 08:49 |
| KC | ikonia: you are already enjoin firefox3? | 08:49 |
| strawks | ikonia: or another, I killed some of my user process | 08:49 |
| tech0007 | yigal42: add "snd_atiixp_modem enable=0" to /etc/modules | 08:49 |
| dpince | When you allot part of your harddrive space to dual-boot, is it possible to overwrite that space with one of the two OS, giving them full control over the space and completely eliminating the other OS? | 08:49 |
| livingdaylight | Kann somoene tell me how i can check whether i hafe blueteeth activated??? and how i kann de-aktivate it? Sanx | 08:49 |
| Metatron | chazco you want servere or desktop, server has no gui | 08:49 |
| chazco | Desktop | 08:50 |
| Jubal | anyone know why Update Manager is hanging on me? I click Install Updates to try and install samba-common and it just becomes unresponsive. | 08:50 |
| mohkohn | dpince, what you are talking about is possible. I am triplebooting at the moment | 08:50 |
| tech0007 | livingdaylight: 'dmesg | grep Bluetooth' | 08:50 |
| livingdaylight | tech0007: is not gui for this? | 08:50 |
| strawks | ikonia: actually I think cache+buffers+free+total rss should be >= total memory-kernel memory | 08:50 |
| glitsj16 | strawks: you could try playing with vm.swappiness and a few other settings as well .. http://kmandla.wordpress.com/2008/05/04/howto-set-up-hardy-for-speed/ | 08:50 |
| dpince | mohkohn: Ok, so if you decided that you only wanted one OS suddenly, could you give that one OS full control of the harddisk without reinstalling? | 08:50 |
| tech0007 | livingdaylight: you should see a bluetooth icon on the upper right on the panel | 08:51 |
| KC | is there almost already enjoined firefox3? | 08:51 |
| strawks | glitsj16: ok I'll look at it | 08:51 |
| gordonjcp | dpince: yes | 08:51 |
| strawks | thanks | 08:51 |
| livingdaylight | tech0007: ?? i don't see bluetooth on panel | 08:52 |
| gordonjcp | dpince: say you split a drive into two partitions, and install Linux on one and something else on the other | 08:52 |
| mohkohn | dpince you can used the gparted tool to add, or resize parttions | 08:52 |
| gordonjcp | dpince: you could just reformat whichever partition you didn't want | 08:52 |
| Jubal | grr I can't use update manager to install anything. Any ideas would be super. | 08:52 |
| tech0007 | livingdaylight: can u try 'dmesg | grep Bluetooth' on terminal | 08:52 |
| dpince | Good news. I'm forced to dual-boot windows XP for now, since I can't get a few things working in ubuntu...but once I get them fixed and working I'd like to eliminate my windows XP install and give ubuntu back all of the space. | 08:52 |
| livingdaylight | tech0007: yes, i did | 08:52 |
| gordonjcp | dpince: cool | 08:53 |
| dpince | Cheers :) | 08:53 |
| gordonjcp | dpince: you can just format over the XP partition and mount it somewhere | 08:53 |
| tech0007 | livingdaylight: do you see any output | 08:53 |
| mohkohn | I just managed to get a 5th partion. I guess the iMac is not dos labeled. | 08:53 |
| gordonjcp | dpince: or if you were using gparted you could resize the Ubuntu partition to swallow up the XP one | 08:53 |
| ___Alex___ | what program do I use to edit disk partitions? | 08:53 |
| dpince | Exactly what I was hoping to hear, thanks a lot :) | 08:53 |
| livingdaylight | tech0007: yes http://pastebin.ubuntu-uk.org/940 | 08:54 |
| mohkohn | dpince also depending on your needs virtualbox might be an option for you. www.virtualbox.org | 08:54 |
| dpince | While we're on that note, does anyone have any experience with getting realtek HD audio drivers working? RIght now I can hear audio when I plug in headphones, but none from my speakers. | 08:54 |
| mohkohn | or 'sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose" | 08:55 |
| tech0007 | livingdaylight: it means bluetooth modules are loaded, whats your bluetooth device? | 08:55 |
| Jubal | Can anyone tell me how to change my computer name? | 08:55 |
| livingdaylight | tech0007: i don't use bluetooth device | 08:55 |
| livingdaylight | tech0007: that is why i want to turn it off to optimize my resources | 08:55 |
| mohkohn | Not good for Windoze games though. but if you need outlook or office virtualbox can be good | 08:55 |
| KC | Jubal: you mean hostname? | 08:56 |
| quinn | Jubal, you can try ' sudo aptitude upgrade | 08:56 |
| tech0007 | livingdaylight: system->administration->services | 08:56 |
| mohkohn | Jubal, My computer, cat and my password all have the same name. !@#dH&! and I change them all every thirty days | 08:56 |
| gordonjcp | doesn't the cat get annoyed at this? | 08:57 |
| Jubal | mohkohn: ok so how do you go about changing them? | 08:57 |
| chazco | Hi... i'm going to have one last attempt at installing Ubuntu later... is there any preferred server known to be stable which can help eliminate what i suspected to be broken downloads (before anyone asks i'm not concerned about Firefox)? | 08:57 |
| livingdaylight | tech0007: that's what i was after... got it switched off now, thx | 08:57 |

| pabix | Hello, is there a command to transform a symbolic link into a "true" link? | 09:05 |
| pabix | when of course the two entries are on the same file system | 09:05 |
| tech0007 | pabix: see 'man ln' | 09:05 |
| pabix | tech0007, I know that one, but I have many symbolic links in a directory, that are already present | 09:06 |
| pabix | man ln does not tell me how to turn them to links | 09:06 |
| gnuskool | g'day | 09:07 |
| pabix | holle gnuskool | 09:07 |
| Dishivlatavish | pabix: do ln -h instead of ln -s | 09:10 |
| pabix | Dishivlatavish, thank you, I never saw the -h option in the manual | 09:10 |
| pabix | maybe I should not use manpages-fr | 09:11 |
| Dishivlatavish | pabix: sorry in newer versions of ln, hard links are default | 09:12 |
| c0nfl|ct | bom di | 09:12 |
| Dishivlatavish | pabix: so simply doing "ln foobar link_to_foobar" will do it | 09:12 |
| Assassyn | halp | 09:12 |
| pabix | Dishivlatavish, but I am not the creator of those links | 09:12 |
| c0nfl|ct | bom dia | 09:13 |
| pabix | The links have been made by a software that I cannot configure | 09:13 |
| Dishivlatavish | er | 09:13 |
| pabix | and they are symbolic. Do I have to make a script to turn them hard? | 09:13 |
| Dishivlatavish | well... | 09:13 |
| Dishivlatavish | how many links are there? | 09:13 |
| Assassyn | http://screenlets.org/images/4/40/Min.jpg <-- those icons down there.. how can i have them arranged like those? | 09:14 |
| pabix | Oh, not many, but I intend to do that quite often | 09:14 |
| Dishivlatavish | if you can write a script then that'd be good | 09:14 |
| pabix | is there a simple command, that tells me which file the symbolic link targets? | 09:14 |
| pabix | Dishivlatavish, that’s what I will do… | 09:14 |
| gordonjcp | pabix: ls -l | 09:14 |
| Dishivlatavish | pabix: ls -l should show you where the link points to | 09:15 |
| Dishivlatavish | ls -l|grep ">" will only show the symbolic links | 09:15 |
| Jubal | hey guys, can anyone tell me why when I go to Update Manager, nothing happens? | 09:15 |
| Assassyn | helooo | 09:15 |
| Assassyn | :P | 09:15 |
| pabix | gordonjcp, yes. I was wondering whether there is simpler~ because if I bash script with ls -l, I have to remove colours and other parasites in the ls output | 09:16 |
| pabix | hello Assassyn | 09:16 |
| chori | Seriously, how does the xorg.conf think? I "sudo aticonfig --initial=dual-head --screen-layout=right" to get two screens. Set the modes for the two screens to 1440x900 and 800x600. That works. I then change the 1440x900 resolution to 1920x1080 and reboot. But the screen is still 1440x900. xrandr reports that the screen could display 1920x1080. Why doesn't it change? (radeon hd 2600pro card with latest fglrx) | 09:16 |

| wgrant | kallepersson: There's no general soundcard problem. | 09:34 |
| blankhead | so then why am i having problems signing in? | 09:34 |
| wgrant | Jockeo: It will never be in Ubuntu 7.10. | 09:34 |
| kallepersson | wgrant: ah | 09:34 |

| blankhead_ | im just trying to motiviate... i like ubuntu its the best but still i have to let the developers hear my cry | 09:37 |
| tech0007 | Jubal: you need root permission, reboot to recovery mode and change the file from there | 09:38 |
| eni_ | Kartagis, alsamixer tells that all the outputs are unmuted. | 09:38 |
| Hobbsee | blankhead_: the developers, for the most part, don't live in here. | 09:38 |

| zak | Hello | 10:02 |
| jason__ | ok thanks wgrant | 10:03 |
| wgrant | jason__: This is probably simply udev only creating device nodes when there is a corresponding device underneath. | 10:03 |
| Negromancer | I tried to rig a dummy DEB of gaim to have a higher version than the replacement package, but these things are beyond me. | 10:03 |
| wgrant | Negromancer: Er, security fixes. | 10:03 |
| wgrant | Running Gaim at this stage is truly foolish. | 10:03 |

| vivek | yes | 10:04 |
| jason__ | wgrant, not exactly mount: could not find any free loop device | 10:04 |
| wgrant | Negromancer: Let it remain there forever as a reminder of your insecurity, or modify update-notifier's source. | 10:04 |
| bazhang | db92, alt f2 compiz --replace (metacity --replace) or use & in the terminal | 10:04 |
| B_O_F_H | vivek: http://www.google.com/ and search soc then there is http://centos.org/ | 10:04 |

| wgrant | Nurionn: It will not. | 10:05 |
| Negromancer | I was hoping someone who's better with packages than I could might be able to show me how to unpack a deb and change its version number. | 10:05 |
| wgrant | Nurionn: It is in Hardy as of several hours ago, however. | 10:06 |
| wgrant | jason__: 'sudo losetup somefile' should do you fine. | 10:06 |
| db92 | how can i make something get "launched" or a command get executed when i exit an application? | 10:06 |
| jason__ | lol, thought that, but no go. | 10:06 |
| jason__ | sudo losetup 1 | 10:06 |
| jason__ | loop: can't open device 1: No such file or directory | 10:06 |
| Nurionn | wgrant: I know about hardy... (my update-manager told me that) - but is there a special reason, why it wont come out for gutsy? | 10:07 |

| bloodboy | plz | 10:08 |

| DaveKong | I have been troubleshooting my network connection I could not find out why I cannot wired connect and now I found I can with just one certain cat5 to any router port | 10:08 |
| wgrant | B_O_F_H: I'm failing to see the relevance. | 10:08 |
| Negromancer | SwedeMike: what | 10:09 |
| bazhang | B_O_F_H, watch the language please | 10:09 |
| DaveKong | anyone know what may be going on? | 10:09 |

| the_eraser | hi how do i check if the swap is working or not? | 10:09 |
| bloodboy | i've been busting my head on english for 1 hour | 10:09 |
| wgrant | bloodboy: This is not appropriate for this channel. | 10:09 |
| B_O_F_H | bazhang: someone told me that in another channel | 10:09 |
| wgrant | the_eraser: 'working'? | 10:09 |
| bloodboy | i can;t take the pressure anymore | 10:09 |
| the_eraser | wgrant: yea i might have erased it or something :) | 10:09 |
| wgrant | the_eraser: cat /proc/swaps | 10:09 |
| bazhang | B_O_F_H, you have been asked several times to remain ontopic here. Please do so, or depart. | 10:10 |
| B_O_F_H | bazhang: the ralph person is nao saying he loves you | 10:10 |
| the_eraser | wgrant: its empty :/ | 10:10 |
| wgrant | the_eraser: sudo swapon -a | 10:10 |
| the_eraser | wgrant: i get errors.. i've messed up this hehe :/ | 10:10 |
| the_eraser | wgrant: oh it has to be the uuid | 10:11 |
| bazhang | bloodboy, /j #ubuntu-offtopic | 10:11 |
| wgrant | the_eraser: You can always run mkswap on it, but make sure you have no useful data on it. | 10:11 |
| the_eraser | wgrant: it has changed | 10:11 |
| wgrant | the_eraser: Not necessarily. | 10:11 |
| wgrant | Ah, yes. | 10:11 |
| xandorv_ | how to to get firefox 3 final on ubuntu 7.10 if its not going to be in the repositories ? | 10:11 |
| wgrant | xandorv_: You could download the Linux build from Mozilla, or upgrade to Ubuntu 8.04. | 10:11 |
| mysterycool | !ff3 | 10:11 |
| wgrant | The latter should give a much better and more integrated experience. | 10:12 |
| ubottu | Firefox 3 Final is currently mirroring to the package repositories. Please be patient. For best results, do not install via archives downloaded from mozilla.com. | 10:12 |
| the_eraser | wgrant: does mkswap update the uuid for me? | 10:12 |
| mysterycool | -_- | 10:12 |
| wgrant | the_eraser: It will generate a new UUID. | 10:12 |
| mysterycool | I downloaded FF3 from the mozilla website, how do I install it? | 10:12 |
| the_eraser | wgrant: ok thx | 10:12 |
| wgrant | mysterycool: It should be available to most Hardy users by now. | 10:12 |
| mysterycool | wgrant: It is, I just downloaded, but there is not guide for installation. | 10:13 |
| wgrant | mysterycool: I meant through the normal update process. | 10:13 |
| bazhang | bloodboy, alternately, /join ##english | 10:13 |
| Flannel | mysterycool: Don't install it manually. Upgrade through the repos instead | 10:13 |
| RogueX | sudo apt-get update | 10:13 |
| apinunt | My computer has 4 USB 2.0 ports, but lspci displays 3 USB 1.1 and 1 USB 2.0, can someone help me resolve this? | 10:13 |
| mysterycool | I did, didnt work :S | 10:13 |
| wgrant | apinunt: Those are USB controllers, not ports. | 10:14 |
| RogueX | chipset driver | 10:14 |
| wgrant | mysterycool: Which Ubuntu release are you using? | 10:14 |
| the_eraser | wgrant: if i want to set uuid manually in fstab, how can i see what number the filesystem is actually using? | 10:14 |
| mysterycool | wgrant: Hardy | 10:14 |
| Flannel | mysterycool: Wait a day or two then. The mirrors have it, it may take some time for *your* mirror to get it | 10:14 |
| wgrant | the_eraser: Use vol_id. | 10:14 |
| RogueX | I got it soon as i reformatted | 10:14 |
| mysterycool | Flannel: They did have it. | 10:14 |
| the_eraser | wgrant: ok | 10:14 |
| RogueX | Soon as i started back up it was there waiting as a update | 10:14 |
| apinunt | wgrant: You're correct, can I determine if the ports are USB2 or 1? | 10:14 |
| wgrant | mysterycool: How do you know it didn't work? | 10:15 |
| RogueX | Check your motherboard specs | 10:15 |
| wgrant | apinunt: You could plug a device in, and use lsusb to work out which controller it pops up on. | 10:15 |
| db92 | wgrant, doing compiz --replace and then closing the terminal makes the interface look a bit messed up :P | 10:16 |
| bazhang | db92, add & after it | 10:16 |

| monster1g | Which graphic driver is the best to use with 8.04 for a 8800 GT nVidia? | 10:17 |
| wgrant | db92: I generally use Alt+F2 to get a Run dialog. | 10:17 |
| wgrant | monster1g: THe nvidia proprietary driver. | 10:17 |
| apinunt | RogueX: Are chipset drivers required in Ubuntu? and if so how are they installed? | 10:17 |
| wgrant | apinunt: They are not. | 10:17 |
| icqnumber | monster1g, the one from nvidia | 10:17 |
| monster1g | wgrant, where can i find that? | 10:17 |
| RogueX | monsterlg, Theres a new linux one on there site | 10:17 |
| wgrant | monster1g: System->Administration->Restricted Drivers. | 10:17 |
| db92 | bazhang, thanks that actually helped, whatever it may have changed :P | 10:18 |
| Finnish | How can I rename my USB-stick? | 10:18 |
| wgrant | db92: It stops the process from terminating when terminal closes. | 10:18 |
| monster1g | wgrant, i dont see resticted drivers in the administration | 10:18 |
| wgrant | db92: Basically, it detaches it from the terminal. | 10:18 |
| wgrant | monster1g: Oops, it's "Hardware Drivers" these days. | 10:19 |
| apinunt | wgrant: lsusb has 5 lines of display but I can't relate any info to a particular controller or USB 1 or 2 | 10:19 |
| wgrant | apinunt: Blurgh, you're right. I'm not sure then, sorry. | 10:20 |
| monster1g | wgrant, is there supposed to be more than 1 option or no. | 10:20 |
| newbeginer | hello | 10:20 |
| wgrant | monster1g: It depends. | 10:20 |
| wgrant | Hi newbeginer | 10:20 |

| DaveKong | How might one go about fixing a problem that seems to be related to cat5 cord compatability? | 10:21 |
| wgrant | DaveKong: Rethinking that hypothesis, probably. | 10:21 |
| newbeginer | now i have a problem, ubuntu cannot detect my wireless | 10:21 |
| wgrant | DaveKong: What gives you the idea? | 10:21 |
| newbeginer | my wireless is intel proset | 10:21 |
| wgrant | newbeginer: What kind of wireless card do you have, and is there anything in System->Administration->Hardware Drivers? | 10:21 |
| wgrant | newbeginer: How old is the laptop? | 10:21 |
| newbeginer | new one | 10:21 |
| wgrant | And what brand? | 10:22 |

| newbeginer | wait | 10:22 |
| the_eraser | wgrant: swap's is on now thx :-) | 10:22 |
| newbeginer | yes | 10:22 |
| wgrant | the_eraser: np | 10:22 |
| newbeginer | i turn the wireless button on but no light | 10:22 |
| wgrant | newbeginer: Press it, and wait a few seconds. | 10:22 |
| wgrant | And see if the wireless device appears in Network Manager. | 10:22 |
| KC | someone got a problem, he said he unable to use sudo permission. i thought this guy must be changed default IP for Internet. | 10:22 |
| RogueX | In most case's what directy does wine save windows aplications ? | 10:23 |
| wgrant | KC: I'm afraid I don't understand what you mean. | 10:23 |
| wgrant | RogueX: Save Windows applications? What? | 10:23 |
| RogueX | Where does it save them | 10:23 |
| babolat | in avant-window-navigator, is there an applet that makes the bar show the windows that are open? | 10:24 |

| wgrant | DaveKong: Are some of them crossover cables, perhaps? | 10:24 |
| wgrant | KC: What is the precise error message? | 10:25 |
| DaveKong | wgrant I looked at the colors on them and they appear to be straight | 10:25 |
| newbeginer | oic | 10:25 |
| newbeginer | ok | 10:25 |
| newbeginer | wait | 10:25 |
| DaveKong | wgrant and if one were why would that make it special to one computer? | 10:25 |
| wgrant | DaveKong: If some work and not others, it's a dodgy cable. | 10:25 |
| bazhang | newbeginer, dont paste here | 10:25 |
| bazhang | !paste | newbeginer | 10:25 |
| ubottu | newbeginer: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 10:25 |

| KC | wgrant: yeah. | 10:26 |
| wgrant | Hobbsee: Oh good. | 10:26 |
| wgrant | RogueX: No. | 10:26 |
| Hobbsee | wgrant: it's at dpkg level | 10:26 |
| newbeginer | it shows many thing | 10:26 |
| DaveKong | wgrant what confuses me is why they work for the other computers but on the one does for the laptop and how to make it so the laptop works with any of them (the one it works with is very short) | 10:26 |
| newbeginer | so i need to copy? | 10:26 |
| wgrant | KC: OK, get said user to run 'hostname' to identify the hostname, and it it as an alias for 127.0.0.1, in System->Administration->Network. | 10:26 |
| monster1g | wgrant, i have returned. =) | 10:26 |
| bazhang | newbeginer, what number for intel wifi | 10:26 |
| KC | wgrant: yeah, i know, just need edit the file /etc/hosts | 10:26 |
| wgrant | KC: That nicely bypasses sudo, to edit /etc/hosts. | 10:26 |
| KC | lol | 10:27 |
| wgrant | <3 PolicyKit | 10:27 |
| KC | same way.. | 10:27 |
| newbeginer | i don know which one | 10:27 |
| bazhang | newbeginer, then paste the entire thing to paste.ubuntu.com | 10:27 |
| babolat | how do i keep track of open windows (as in what "Window list" does for gnome-panel) ?? | 10:27 |
| newbeginer | ok | 10:27 |
| newbeginer | wait | 10:27 |
| wgrant | babolat: In AWN? You might better of asking in an AWN channel, as nobody here seems to be aware. | 10:28 |
| babolat | yes, wgrant | 10:28 |
| babolat | wgrant: im there.. it's silent as a lamb | 10:28 |
| KC | wgrant: the way same as me..but someone of here still not come back. | 10:28 |

| wgrant | KC: Hm? | 10:28 |
| teamz | I have a problem. I have setup vsftpd and the user can access his home directory, read the content of the directory and even download files but he's unable to create a file. He has the permission in this directory .. anybody has a clue ? | 10:28 |
| wgrant | RogueX: /home/yourusername/.wine/drive_c | 10:29 |
| babolat | roger: do ctrl-h to show hidden files and folders | 10:29 |
| babolat | RogueX: | 10:29 |
| wgrant | teamz: vsftpd is probably set in the configuration to disallow writes by default. | 10:29 |
| babolat | RogueX: do ctrl-h to show hidden files and folders | 10:29 |
| DaveKong | wgrant would the cable saying "enhanced cat5 utp" mean anything? for some reason being enhanced makes it work? | 10:29 |
| KC | wgrant: nothing... lol | 10:29 |
| wgrant | DaveKong: That's CAT5e. That will mean it will work for Gigabit over 100m, whereas CAT5 doesn't. | 10:30 |
| wgrant | It shouldn't make any difference for short lengths. | 10:30 |
| bazhang | DaveKong, why not ask in ##hardware | 10:30 |
| teamz | # Uncomment this to enable any form of FTP write command. | 10:30 |
| teamz | write_enable=YES | 10:30 |
| newbeginer | i have problem to copy the file | 10:30 |
| DaveKong | bazhang alright I will I am just sorting out what exactly is going on or trying to | 10:30 |
| teamz | I fixed it | 10:31 |
| teamz | no idea why it works though | 10:31 |
| babolat | newbeginer: what are you trying to do? what error do you get? | 10:31 |
| teamz | I changed the permissions of the group to +w | 10:31 |
| DistroJockey | babolat: AWN by default only displays icons for running apps I believe. You need awn-manager to add Launchers, etc. | 10:31 |
| newbeginer | i try to copy in text document | 10:31 |
| newbeginer | inside my usb drive | 10:31 |
| monster1g | Is it possible to install beryl on 8.04 ? | 10:31 |
| babolat | DistroJockey: is that not included in the default package? | 10:31 |
| wgrant | monster1g: No. | 10:32 |
| newbeginer | then when i plug into computer with window running | 10:32 |
| wgrant | monster1g: Beryl is long dead. Use Compiz instead. | 10:32 |
| Starnestommy | monster1g: compiz-fusion has replaced beryl | 10:32 |
| newbeginer | i cannot open the file | 10:32 |
| DistroJockey | babolat: not entirely sure, but I think not | 10:32 |
| monster1g | wgrant, can tell im new ;) | 10:32 |
| babolat | i'll go consult synaptic, DistroJockey | 10:32 |
| DistroJockey | babolat: but what you wanded should be the default behavior | 10:32 |
| babolat | newbeginer: where is this text document located? | 10:32 |

| BeBoBli | It's really awesome how my master mute refuses to mute movies or flash or pretty much anything using pulse. | 10:33 |
| KC | is there anyone could help me, my problem is while i watch a video by MPlayer, but no screen for me, just sound.. the format of video file is RMVB. | 10:33 |
| wgrant | monster1g: You could install simple-ccsm. | 10:33 |
| BeBoBli | I'm not here for a solution so much as to mock it because that's just ridiculous. | 10:33 |
| babolat | newbeginer: and when you plug in your usb flash drive it's not mounted? | 10:33 |
| DistroJockey | !ccsm | monster1g | 10:33 |
| ubottu | monster1g: ccsm is To enable advanced customization of desktop effects in Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy), install 'compizconfig-settings-manager' or 'simple-ccsm'. If you install the latter, a new option will appear in your appearance properties - See also !compiz - Help in #compiz-fusion | 10:33 |
| wgrant | BeBoBli: Then you're not welcome here. | 10:33 |
| BeBoBli | I think so! I support Ubuntu to my fullest. | 10:34 |
| _link | hi, i'm trying to install ubuntu on a dell 1720 laptop, and i'm getting the "could not allocate tty" error. Googled abit and found that i need to add break =top to the boot line, then type modprobe piix; exit into the busybox. The thing is that ubuntu still doesnt load, and its because it doesnt support the 8600 nvidia card. | 10:34 |
| BeBoBli | I just solve the problem with a simple dial is all. | 10:34 |
| wgrant | BeBoBli: This is a support channel, not one for complaining uselessly. | 10:34 |
| BeBoBli | Oh hmm | 10:34 |
| ksoviero | where do i report wine bugs to? | 10:34 |
| xiownthisplacex | i have an ubuntu server that i rented, and when i ftp/sftp and try to download something, it doesnt pass 250 kbs/s and its on a 100 mbits connection and my net connection is 16 mbits, so shouldn't i get it around my top speed? i tried winscp and flashfxp | 10:34 |
| bazhang | BeBoBli, take chat elsewhere | 10:34 |
| BeBoBli | Where would I go then? Is there a more general channel for ubuntu? | 10:34 |
| wgrant | ksoviero: winehq.org | 10:34 |
| DistroJockey | !ot | BeBoBli | 10:35 |
| ubottu | BeBoBli: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 10:35 |
| wgrant | xiownthisplacex: How far apart are you, geographically? | 10:35 |
| BeBoBli | Thank you DistroJockey! | 10:35 |
| xiownthisplacex | maybe 1500 kms | 10:35 |
| DistroJockey | BeBoBli: np | 10:35 |

| babolat | newbeginer: try renaming the file and add ".txt" without the quotes at the end of it (if it's a text document) | 10:37 |
| DistroJockey | newbeginer: right-click on it and choose Open with... then select Notepad | 10:37 |

| wgrant | generic: What's wrong with it in Ubuntu? | 10:38 |

| monster1g | can you walk me through it? | 10:40 |
| wgrant | glitsj16: 48-bit colour? How odd. | 10:40 |
| wgrant | monster1g: Do you have shadows behind your windows at the moment? | 10:40 |
| babolat | it's kinda hard to understand what he's saying | 10:40 |
| bazhang | newbeginer, open a terminal and type ifconfig how many entries do you see (2 or 3) | 10:40 |
| monster1g | no | 10:40 |
| monster1g | wait now i do | 10:40 |
| wgrant | monster1g: If you have them, settings in CCSM should work fine. | 10:41 |
| xiownthisplacex | wgrant am i far away for it to be going slow? | 10:41 |
| glitsj16 | wgrant: exactly, ah well, i'll try putting in some others and see what gives | 10:41 |
| wgrant | glitsj16: Very strange, indeed. | 10:41 |

| madadam | hi in which folder are stored the installed programs? | 10:41 |
| veggteppey | ive been searching around but cant find it. | 10:42 |
| wgrant | xiownthisplacex: Hard to say - the Internet does not operate line-of-sight. | 10:42 |
| wgrant | madadam: They are installed in locations throughout the system. Synaptic can tell you which files belong to a particular application. | 10:42 |
| newbeginer | there is ctho,lo,wlano,wmaster | 10:42 |
| DistroJockey | wgrant: xiownthisplacex: try a tracert ? | 10:42 |
| newbeginer | i don know this is the thing u want | 10:42 |
| xiownthisplacex | yea, but, do i have to configure something for it to speed up? | 10:42 |
| bazhang | newbeginer, eth0 lo wlan0 and wmaster? | 10:42 |
| newbeginer | yes | 10:43 |
| wgrant | veggteppey: Tried searching for lua in Synaptic? | 10:43 |
| Flannel | veggteppey: Hardy? | 10:43 |
| monster1g | the desktop seems to be froze -.- | 10:43 |
| DistroJockey | xiownthisplacex: you may have luck disabling IPv6 (I did miss the issue you were having though) | 10:43 |
| xiownthisplacex | •DistroJockey• i said: i have an ubuntu server that i rented, and when i ftp/sftp and try to download something, it doesnt pass 250 kbs/s and its on a 100 mbits connection and my net connection is 16 mbits, so shouldn't i get it around my top speed? i tried winscp and flashfxp | 10:44 |
| bazhang | newbeginer, when you type sudo dhclient wlan0 do you get any dhcpoffers? | 10:45 |
| madadam | wgrant i'm asking because i've donloaded an archive containing a program written in java, that work without installation, where can I put the unzipped folder? | 10:45 |
| wgrant | madadam: Just put it in your home directory anywhere. | 10:45 |
| wgrant | It doesn't matter. | 10:45 |
| newbeginer | u mean inside terminal type sudo dhclient wlan0 | 10:46 |
| bazhang | newbeginer, aye | 10:46 |
| DistroJockey | xiownthisplacex: are you sure it's kb/s and not kB/s ? Try a tracert to the server to see if there are slow systems inbetween | 10:47 |
| xiownthisplacex | kilobytes | 10:47 |
| === aasvero_ is now known as aasvero | ||
| wgrant | xiownthisplacex: Ahhh, that's KB | 10:47 |
| xiownthisplacex | ok, did a tracert, got 15 hops, how do i c if there are slow systems though? | 10:48 |
| wgrant | kb is 8 times slower :P | 10:48 |
| xiownthisplacex | yea, sorry, my bad | 10:48 |
| veggteppey | ok wgrant | 10:48 |
| wgrant | veggteppey: Thanks. | 10:49 |
| newbeginer | it's show some list and said no dhcpoffers receive | 10:49 |
| veggteppey | so how do i run lua thru terminal? | 10:49 |
| wgrant | newbeginer: Is your wireless visible in Network Manager? | 10:49 |
| wgrant | veggteppey: Starting with lua before you understand a terminal is probably slightly unwise. | 10:50 |
| DistroJockey | xiownthisplacex: I guess tracert is maybe not the best tool for working out throughput speeds | 10:50 |
| veggteppey | nonono:P | 10:50 |
| DistroJockey | xiownthisplacex: gives and indication of server response times mainly | 10:51 |
| newbeginer | hey | 10:51 |
| newbeginer | good news | 10:51 |
| bazhang | newbeginer, got a lease? | 10:51 |
| newbeginer | wait | 10:51 |
| xiownthisplacex | DistroJockey so there is nothing i can do to improve speeds? | 10:52 |
| ksoviero | garrys mod 10 in wine? | 10:52 |
| newbeginer | i found my wirelss router | 10:52 |
| newbeginer | then i connect n put the password | 10:53 |
| XB23 | using sudo how do i become another user | 10:53 |
| RandyboY | Why doesnt gnome-terminal load .profile when started? Cant use my aliases if i dont "source .profile"... | 10:53 |
| wgrant | XB23: sudo -i -u someuser | 10:53 |
| XB23 | ty | 10:53 |
| wgrant | RandyboY: Is that perhaps only done on login? | 10:53 |
| DistroJockey | xiownthisplacex: do you get the full 16mb to your ISP? | 10:53 |
| xiownthisplacex | yes | 10:53 |
| newbeginer | it's show wep128, wep64/128bit hex, wep64/128-bitascii, leap | 10:53 |
| newbeginer | which one do i choose | 10:53 |
| RandyboY | wgrant, i have to do it every time i open a new terminal in gnome | 10:53 |
| wgrant | newbeginer: It won't be ther last one, but you should know which it is... | 10:54 |
| wgrant | RandyboY: Even if you log out and in? | 10:54 |
| bazhang | newbeginer, we have no way of knowing; whatever is set in your router | 10:54 |
| RandyboY | wgrant, regular ssh login uses the .profile | 10:54 |
| DistroJockey | xiownthisplacex: then, I don't think so | 10:54 |
| RandyboY | wgrant, yes | 10:54 |
| generic | wgrant i cannot print on A3 no idea but when i print on A3 it prints 2 pages in A4 do i need to set orinter trays | 10:54 |
| wgrant | RandyboY: That's a new login, right. | 10:54 |
| veggteppey | wgrant, can i try to start lua in terminal? if so, whats the cmd?^^ | 10:54 |
| RandyboY | yeah | 10:54 |
| wgrant | wgrant: lua | 10:54 |
| wgrant | Er. | 10:54 |
| wgrant | I suck. | 10:54 |
| wgrant | veggteppey: lua | 10:54 |
| FloodBot1 | wgrant: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 10:54 |
| xiownthisplacex | ok, i guess i just dont have any luck lol | 10:54 |
| bazhang | haha | 10:54 |
| wgrant | Objection! | 10:54 |
| gidna | Hi | 10:55 |
| wgrant | Hi gidna. | 10:55 |
| gidna | Why receive I this error /tmp/001-1.wmv could not be opened, because the associated helper application does not exist. Change the association in your preferences.? | 10:55 |
| vallhalla81 | i dont seem to be able to set my keybord to the uk layout i am stuck using the us config with a uk keybord can any advise please | 10:55 |
| wgrant | gidna: Probably because you managed to remove the application with which you last opened it. | 10:55 |
| wgrant | vallhalla81: Does SYstem->Preferences->Keyboard not help? | 10:55 |
| RandyboY | wgrant, even the first time i open the terminal it doesnt use .profile. (After logged in on welcome screen.) | 10:56 |
| gidna | no.. | 10:56 |
| wgrant | gidna: What if you right-click on it, and select an alternate application? | 10:56 |
| xiownthisplacex | DistroJockey if i use iroffer or rtorrent, i can upload (from the server to me) at 1.5 MBs/s (more or less) but i don't know why ftp doesn't pass 250 KBs/s | 10:56 |
| gidna | I can save it and watch it.. | 10:56 |
| vallhalla81 | wgrant: no when i add uk then try to select it it does nothing not even show it is selected just stays on us | 10:56 |
| wgrant | Ra# This file is not read by bash(1), if ~/.bash_profile or ~/.bash_login | 10:56 |
| wgrant | # exists. | 10:56 |
| gidna | but I can't open and watch direclty | 10:56 |
| wgrant | RandyboY: ^^ | 10:56 |
| newbeginer | guy | 10:57 |
| wgrant | vallhalla81: Select it, then? | 10:57 |
| newbeginer | i think i oledy online with ubuntu | 10:57 |
| veggteppey | wgrand, i aint able to start it in terminal, only getting copywright things | 10:57 |
| vallhalla81 | wgrant: i keep trying still nothing | 10:57 |
| DistroJockey | xiownthisplacex: hmm | 10:57 |
| wgrant | vallhalla81: Click on the UK default option button. | 10:57 |
| bazhang | !yay | newbeginer | 10:57 |
| ubottu | newbeginer: Glad you made it! :-) | 10:57 |
| vallhalla81 | wgrant: still nothing | 10:57 |
| newbeginer | i choose wep64/128bit hex, | 10:57 |
| wgrant | vallhalla81: What do you mean? | 10:58 |
| RandyboY | wgrant, i know. Was looking for bash_login, but its not there. Therefore i thought .profile would be next used. All i have there is bash_history and bash_logout. | 10:58 |
| DistroJockey | xiownthisplacex: ftp is an old protocol, maybe it has limits? | 10:58 |
| newbeginer | so do i need to copy the stuff just now and paste to the ubuntu pastebin? | 10:58 |
| DerMicha | hy guys n girls | 10:58 |
| vallhalla81 | wgrant: is stays on us and wont move to uk | 10:58 |
| wgrant | vallhalla81: Oh, it might only affect newly opened applications. | 10:58 |
| wgrant | vallhalla81: Unless you manually force it to switch for each, but it's probably easier just to restart them. | 10:58 |
| bazhang | newbeginer, if your wireless works then you can install once you have found out about your wireless card | 10:58 |
| wgrant | newbeginer: Not if it works. | 10:58 |
| xiownthisplacex | DistroJockey so what should i use? i already tried sftp.. | 10:58 |
| vallhalla81 | wgrant: nope it wont afect anythin | 10:58 |
| bazhang | newbeginer, err video card | 10:58 |
| DistroJockey | xiownthisplacex: nfs? | 10:59 |
| wgrant | vallhalla81: Even if you open a new application, after selecting UK as the default? | 10:59 |
| xiownthisplacex | don't know what that is :s | 10:59 |
| vallhalla81 | wgrant: yep even then | 10:59 |
| bazhang | !nfs | xiownthisplacex | 10:59 |
| ubottu | xiownthisplacex: nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS. | 10:59 |
| newbeginer | i wonder why my wireless no light when inside ubuntu??? | 10:59 |
| xiownthisplacex | ok, will take a look | 10:59 |

| Finnish | /dev/sda1 on /media/disk type fuseblk (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,noatime,allow_other,blksize=4096) | 10:59 |
| DerMicha | ive got an question, how can i add an additonal server to the list? i did ad a server to an existing network and want o conec but it says "no server in the network" | 10:59 |
| newbeginer | but it's connecting | 10:59 |
| Finnish | And my fstab | 11:00 |
| DerMicha | on xChat | 11:00 |

| DistroJockey | xiownthisplacex: me neither entirely, but it's Network File Service/System I assume | 11:00 |
| newbeginer | video card... | 11:00 |
| ginovation | anyone has idea about scim | 11:00 |

| Babar | wgrant: I want to try a 64bits kernel (got 4 Gb ram) | 11:23 |
| newbeginer6 | not partition | 11:23 |
| netron1234 | wgrant: like the windows domain hostname... e.g. exchange1.aether.tirgl? | 11:23 |
| MatBoy | mhh I need a EEEPC | 11:24 |
| newbeginer6 | i mean make a preparation on windows like backup and defrag hardisk first before install ubuntu | 11:24 |
| DistroJockey | Babar: 4GB of RAM is not really a good enough reason to go 64bit | 11:24 |
| wgrant | techno_freak: The DNS hostname. | 11:24 |

| Babar | DistroJockey, wgrant: in fact, my question is more: can I install and run a 64bits kernel, or do I have to reinstall everything? | 11:27 |
| Zoiks | hey, I have just built another machine to act as a file server, now I want to be able to set it up so I can access it remotely from another ubuntu box on the same network. What is the best way of doing this? X forwarding, VNC, something completely different? | 11:27 |

| wgrant | Babar: You should be able to run a 64-bit kernel with 32-bit userspace fine. | 11:28 |
| bullgard4 | AutumnCat: Ah, ok, understood. -- Can you also tell me who or what determines what set of messages will be included in syslog? | 11:28 |
| DistroJockey | Babar: you could, with the 64bit kernel modules also | 11:29 |
| wgrant | netron1234: This isn't #kubuntu. | 11:29 |
| Zoiks | netron1234: im using ubuntu not kubuntu | 11:29 |
| Chrysalis | i dont know what the problem is cause its causing problems with sonata. . . it wont load at all so trying to remove everything and reinstall but it wont let me uninstall mpd | 11:29 |
| netron1234 | zoiks -> also ,try sshfs | 11:29 |
| wgrant | Zoiks: For files, use Nautilus (the usual file browser). Just open up sftp://yourserver | 11:29 |
| Zoiks | wgrant: is that similar to using samba shares? | 11:29 |
| xiownthisplacex | anyone know how to install drftpd? | 11:29 |
| AutumnCat | bullgard4: man syslog.conf , man syslog. I don't know very much , either. | 11:30 |

| Babar | DistroJockey: I agree the 4Gb limit is not worth the upgrade, but I will gain about 1 Gb ram, and might have some other improvement. My question is more: how do I use a 64 bits kernel? The linux-image-2.6.24-19-generic is said to be for both 32 and 64, but how do I "force" 64bits? | 11:32 |
| Gin | is there a way to watch flash movie without installing the adobe flash plugin? | 11:32 |
| wgrant | Zoiks: Ah, but there's no reason to use Samba from your Ubuntu machine. | 11:32 |

| Babar | wgrant: ok, so are there 64 bits kernel modules? | 11:32 |
| Babar | or do I need a special repo? | 11:32 |
| Zoiks | wgrant: that is true. So whats the difference between vnc ssh and x forwarding? | 11:33 |
| Riotta | Gin: you got 64bit ? | 11:33 |
| Babar | s/modules// | 11:33 |
| wgrant | Babar: You will need to find the linux-image and linux-ubuntu-modules packages from the amd64 version. | 11:33 |
| Gin | Riotta, yes. but I hate flash in general on Linux. | 11:33 |
| Riotta | there is no way to do that | 11:33 |
| DistroJockey | Babar: not sure sorry. I've seen more people have issues trying to use 64 over 32, so I only do 32bit | 11:33 |
| wgrant | Zoiks: SSH is normally used for console access, although both VNC and X can be tunnelled over SSH. | 11:34 |
| netron1234 | exit | 11:34 |
| Babar | DistroJockey: ok. Just want to try it out, and see. If I'm having issues, I'll "roll-back" to 32 bits | 11:34 |
| Riotta | if you wanna get flash working on 64bit just uncomment the canonical partner repository in /etc/apt/sources.list and install flash non free Gin | 11:34 |
| wgrant | Riotta: It's not in Partner. | 11:34 |

| Riotta | anyway adobe opened flash itself so version 11 will be open | 11:36 |

| Bodsda | OMAR_INC, it seems like a new card so im gonna guess things will work -- in the terminal type sudo apt-get install compizconfig-settings-manager | 11:55 |
| ActionParsnip | OMAR_INC: so if you websearch for that with Ubuntu on the end of it you should hit gold | 11:55 |

| wildman | hello there, I've just updated my system (according to notification on top bar) and after that it won't boot anymore with the new kernel (-19), one of the updated packages... | 11:56 |

| DASPRiD | coexistens with windows... uh, i don't want to think about that :D | 11:56 |
| Bodsda | wgrant, bleh -- i dont like intel anyways ,.,.lol,., is it good enough? | 11:56 |
| wgrant | newbeginer6: You cannot. | 11:57 |
| OMAR_INC | Its like installing something | 11:57 |
| Bodsda | OMAR_INC, yep, thats good | 11:57 |
| wildman | how do I safely roll back kernel to the working one (this one, 2.6.24-18) ? | 11:57 |
| ActionParsnip | OMAR_INC: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=383710 | 11:57 |
| wgrant | Bodsda: "it's like a slideshow" is one comment about it I've seen. | 11:57 |
| newbeginer6 | all right | 11:57 |
| Bodsda | wgrant, oh dear | 11:57 |
| wgrant | wildman: You report the breakage very urgently to the developers. | 11:57 |
| wgrant | wildman: What's the problem? | 11:57 |
| OMAR_INC | Ok, installing is done, and now? | 11:57 |
| Bodsda | OMAR_INC, in the terminal type ccsm | 11:58 |
| Bodsda | and hit enter | 11:58 |
| wildman | wgrant, it just doesn't boot... throwing me into an initSOMETHING busy-box prompt after a minute or two | 11:58 |
| newbeginer6 | should i skip to import the account from my current windows xp? | 11:58 |
| OMAR_INC | I did | 11:58 |
| ActionParsnip | Bodsda: i think he needs the i810 driver | 11:58 |
| DistroJockey | wildman: select it from your grub menu | 11:58 |
| Bodsda | OMAR_INC, cool, a new window should appear? | 11:58 |
| wgrant | wildman: -18 works, but -19 doesn't? Report a bug immediately, please. For now, select the -18 kernel in the boot menu at startup... | 11:58 |
| wildman | wgrant, luckily, the install left old (-18) kernel entries in grub menu and I could boot into it now | 11:58 |
| Cristi | i installed cairo dock and i want it to run at startup. where is it installed by defauld? | 11:58 |
| wgrant | ActionParsnip: It's -intel these days. | 11:58 |
| OMAR_INC | Let me see | 11:58 |
| Bodsda | ActionParsnip, if it doesnt work ootb then we'll look into drivers | 11:58 |
| wgrant | wildman: That's why. | 11:58 |
| DVS01 | im setting up a user who should only be able to log in and either use sftp or rsync.. should i go with rssh to implement this, or scponly? | 11:58 |
| OMAR_INC | Yes | 11:59 |
| wgrant | wildman: But please report a bug, so it gets fixed before 8.04.1 | 11:59 |
| ActionParsnip | Bodsda: deal | 11:59 |
| wildman | DistroJockey, wgrant: that's not a very nice solution, though it is the only one that works | 11:59 |
| Bodsda | OMAR_INC, ok, you have a window with lots of things on it,.,. at the top theres one called 'general' click on it | 11:59 |
| wildman | wgrant, handy pointer to bug report to avoid me hunting for it? | 11:59 |
| wildman | wgrant, please ;) | 11:59 |
| OMAR_INC | I got it | 11:59 |
| wgrant | DVS01: scponly is always good. | 11:59 |
| Bodsda | OMAR_INC, ok, no at the top there are tabs, look for one called 'desktop' and click on it | 12:00 |
| wgrant | wildman: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+filebug | 12:00 |
| wildman | thx | 12:00 |
| OMAR_INC | desktop size? | 12:00 |
| DVS01 | wgrant: got any reasons to pick it instead of rssh? | 12:00 |
| Bodsda | OMAR_INC, 'desktop size' rather | 12:00 |
| Bodsda | yeah | 12:00 |
| JFlash | does beryl come with hardy heron: | 12:00 |
| JFlash | ? | 12:00 |
| wgrant | DVS01: Only that I know it because I gave it a security patch last year. | 12:00 |
| OMAR_INC | Ok.. I got it | 12:00 |
| ActionParsnip | JFlash: its compiz-fusion now | 12:00 |
| Hemebon1 | Shit! | 12:00 |
| Hemebon1 | My route broke my connection. | 12:00 |
| ActionParsnip | sup Hemebon1 | 12:00 |
| Bodsda | OMAR_INC, change 'horizontal virtual size' to 4 | 12:00 |
| wgrant | JFlash: No - Beryl is long dead. Compiz Fusion replaces it, and comes with Ubuntu 8.04 "Hardy Heron" | 12:00 |
| DVS01 | wgrant: does it have any configuration? i want to be able to allow usage of rsync | 12:00 |
| JFlash | does it have that 3d thing? | 12:00 |
| Hemebon1 | Oh well. No more remote work tonight then. | 12:01 |
| wgrant | DVS01: I forget - it has been a while. | 12:01 |
| wgrant | JFlash: That's the point. | 12:01 |
| OMAR_INC | and what else? | 12:01 |
| wgrant | JFlash: Compiz Fusion is rather better than Beryl ever was. | 12:01 |
| JFlash | how do I get that cool 3d thing? | 12:01 |
| DVS01 | wgrant: i'm aware that i could just mount using sshfs and then rsync to it as a local path.. but that adds an extra step | 12:01 |
| hellfire | cze | 12:01 |
| wgrant | JFlash: Install Ubuntu 8.04 - if you have a compatible video card, it should be enabled. | 12:01 |
| rsk | JFlash: enable it if your hardware supports it, easy enough. | 12:01 |
| icqnumber | JFlash, there is compiz, compiz fusion, no beryl any more | 12:01 |
| Bodsda | OMAR_INC, then in the bottom left corner click 'back' then find the plugins that are called 'desktop cube' and 'rotate cube' tick both of the tick box's by them | 12:01 |

| Bodsda | OMAR_INC, to use the cube, minimize all apps, press the middle mouse button down and move the mouse | 12:03 |
| wgrant | OMAR_INC: If it isn't activated, I'm afraid that your video card probably isn't compatible. | 12:03 |
| ActionParsnip | carlisle: sorry man, no ipod | 12:03 |

| Bodsda | ActionParsnip, what? | 12:05 |
| andash | Bodsda: there are viruses for Linux, thats what he asked | 12:05 |
| ActionParsnip | Bodsda: like a tag team, who needs drivers? | 12:05 |
| DVS01 | i mean if you write a virus that follows the plan that windows viruses do.. modify an executable to make it infect other executables, it'd still be confined to user permissions, etc.. | 12:05 |
| thekillah | who is the german channel ? | 12:05 |

| DVS01 | gordonjcp: the only useful kind that i can think of is perhaps one (probably would be referred to as a rootkit) that modifies common apps like ls, ps, etc.. to make those apps hide the 'virus' from the user | 12:07 |
| Bodsda | Kartagis, ubuntu does | 12:07 |
| ActionParsnip | Bodsda: whatever makes it go :) | 12:07 |
| Bodsda | sort of | 12:07 |
| JFlash | its not listed as a "supported application" | 12:07 |
| JFlash | is that bad? | 12:07 |
| Bodsda | ActionParsnip, yeah ;~) | 12:07 |
| mortis | When I try to install Ubuntu, it shows the logo, but then goes to a command promt screen | 12:08 |
| ActionParsnip | OMAR_INC: you there dude?? | 12:08 |
| wgrant | Kartagis: Say '!no tr is somepropersentence here', and somebody will pick it up. | 12:08 |
| gordonjcp | DVS01: that is indeed a rootkit, but that's a very different thing | 12:08 |
| wgrant | JFlash: No. | 12:08 |

| Bodsda | Kartagis, if you wish to have the spelling mistake corrected, go to #ubuntu-ops and ask them to change it | 12:08 |
| JFlash | is that it? | 12:08 |
| wgrant | JFlash: It is. | 12:08 |
| ActionParsnip | mortis: log in then type startx | 12:08 |
| gordonjcp | DVS01: that's not to say that there are no vulnerabilities in Linux (or any other Unix) | 12:08 |
| Bodsda | !ping | OMAR_INC | 12:08 |
| ubottu | OMAR_INC: ping yourself ;-) really the diodes all down my left side are sore | 12:08 |
| OMAR_INC | I lagged | 12:08 |
| DVS01 | gordonjcp: viruses in linux have to obey the rules.. i love that :D | 12:08 |
| JFlash | thanks guys | 12:08 |
| Bodsda | OMAR_INC, ok, did it work? | 12:08 |
| ActionParsnip | OMAR_INC: better now? | 12:08 |
| DistroJockey | mortis: try the Alternate CD instead | 12:08 |
| mortis | Log in? | 12:08 |
| mortis | I can't log in to Ubuntu if it's not even installed. | 12:09 |
| OMAR_INC | My lagg is gone now, yes | 12:09 |
| ActionParsnip | mortis: yeah dont you have a login prompt? | 12:09 |
| Kartagis | !no tr is Turk ubuntu kullanicilari, Turkce yardim ya da geyik icin #ubuntu-tr hizmetinizde. | 12:09 |
| mortis | Nope. I'm talking about installing | 12:09 |
| gordonjcp | DVS01: if you really want you can always just do "sudo apt-get install rootkit" | 12:09 |
| Kartagis | cool | 12:09 |
| wgrant | Kartagis: Hopefully the ops will make that change soon. | 12:09 |
| ActionParsnip | mortis: ahh, you are waiting to install | 12:09 |
| mortis | Yeah. | 12:09 |
| newbeginer6 | ubuntu save a lot of money? | 12:09 |

| mortis | It doesn' | 12:09 |
| mortis | doesn't say it's installing or anything | 12:10 |
| wgrant | newbeginer6: Yep. | 12:10 |
| ActionParsnip | mortis: try a text based install | 12:10 |
| DVS01 | gordonjcp: yah, like that recent root exploit (jessica_biel_naked_in_my_bed.c) that affected Linux 2.6.17 - 2.6.24.1 | 12:10 |

| OMAR_INC | Ok | 12:10 |
| wildman | oups, I didn't know there was a robot for bugs too :P | 12:10 |
| DVS01 | gordonjcp: i was very pleased to see that when i tried that exploit on a kernel with grsecurity installed, instead of gaining root access, the machine crashed. more secure in my opinion to crash than to give root :D | 12:10 |
| wgrant | wildman: Bug #1 | 12:11 |
| ActionParsnip | OMAR_INC: can you do another pastebin with the text ;) | 12:11 |
| ActionParsnip | !paste | OMAR_INC | 12:11 |
| ubottu | OMAR_INC: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 12:11 |
| wgrant | wildman: It's a very nice bot. | 12:11 |
| Bodsda | wildman, theres a robot for everything ;~) | 12:11 |
| wgrant | Except it didn't work this time. | 12:11 |
| wildman | wgrant, indeed | 12:11 |
| wildman | Bodsda, looks like :) | 12:11 |
| ActionParsnip | !coffee | wildman | 12:11 |
| ubottu | wildman: coffee is a caffeinated beverage made by filtering water through ground up roasted beans of the coffee plant. Flavouring to taste such as milk or cream, sugar or sweetener are often added afterwards. Not to be confused with !java | 12:11 |
| JFlash | " as much bling as you could possibly imagine plus more" << wow, I like the sound of that! | 12:11 |

| DVS01 | gordonjcp: ever tried that exploit? | 12:11 |
| DVS01 | it exploits vmsplice | 12:12 |
| kane77 | I just realised that wine 1.0 was released.. is it going to be added to repository? | 12:12 |

| Balachmar | Hi, I have a question on software raid. I am following this instruction: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/SoftwareRAID?highlight=(raid) But I have one question. Do I need to create the root partition, swap partition and home partition before or after creating the raid? | 12:33 |
| yakobmatrix | Bodsda: hey I just looking for some information | 12:33 |
| roadrunner-09 | after each reboot i keep losing desktop settings. theme, background, panel icons | 12:33 |
| Balachmar | roadrunner-09: Are you using the live cd? | 12:33 |
| wgrant | roadrunner-09: You aren't using a live CD by any chance, are you? | 12:33 |
| Dr_willis_ | roadrunner-09, are you using wubi? | 12:34 |
| roadrunner-09 | no | 12:34 |
| Bodsda | yakobmatrix, yes, but looking for information in a pm with the bot means less flooding for the channel | 12:34 |
| roadrunner-09 | installed | 12:34 |
| Balachmar | roadrunner-09: And no cd in the drive? | 12:34 |
| lolcatz | <andash> : thankx for the links | 12:34 |
| yakobmatrix | whatever | 12:34 |
| Slart | roadrunner-09: is your home folder mounted correctly? | 12:34 |
| roadrunner-09 | no | 12:34 |
| Bodsda | roadrunner-09, why not? | 12:34 |
| * ActionParsnip hates wubi | 12:34 | |
| newbeginer9 | still don;t know how to go ubuntu irc chatroom | 12:34 |
| Slart | newbeginer9: you are here.. this is it | 12:35 |
| wgrant | newbeginer9: You're here. | 12:35 |
| NickGarvey | newbeginer9: welcome | 12:35 |
| Bodsda | newbeginer9, err,. your in the ubuntu irc room | 12:35 |
| ActionParsnip | !hi | newbeginer9 | 12:35 |
| ubottu | newbeginer9: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 12:35 |
| roadrunner-09 | never had this problem | 12:35 |
| newbeginer9 | what i mean is | 12:35 |
| newbeginer9 | inside ubuntu | 12:35 |
| newbeginer9 | now i'm still at windows | 12:35 |
| Slart | newbeginer9: ah.. you're looking for an irc-client for ubuntu.. | 12:36 |
| newbeginer9 | i have 2 computer here | 12:36 |
| newbeginer9 | yes | 12:36 |
| Balachmar | newbeginer: I am using xchat | 12:36 |
| Bodsda | newbeginer9, install an irc client such as xchat, connect to ubuntu servers (irc.freenode.net) and type /j #ubuntu | 12:36 |
| Slart | newbeginer9: there is a program called xchat.. in the Applications, Internet menu | 12:36 |
| StooJ | xchat newbeginer9 | 12:36 |
| ActionParsnip | newbeginer9: xchat, pidgin | 12:36 |
| DVS01 | heh.. an irc client.. | 12:36 |
| wgrant | Slart: Not by default. | 12:36 |
| TuniX12 | newbeginer chatzilla xchat xhat-gnome | 12:36 |
| Slart | newbeginer9: oh.. my bad.. you'll have to run this first "sudo apt-get install xchat" | 12:36 |
| Bodsda | irssi | 12:36 |
| Slart | thanks, wgrant | 12:37 |
| maek | has anyone figured out how to change the text colour on the Firefox 3 widgets when using a dark theme ?? | 12:37 |
| DVS01 | i actually was unable to find an irc client for linux that i enjoy. i ended up creating a windows xp VM hosted by vmware server on one of my linux boxes.. this winxp vm does nothing but run mirc. i use it via vnc :D | 12:37 |
| wgrant | Slart: Best to not ask people to drop to the commandline just for that. | 12:37 |
| Bodsda | maek, not really an ubuntu thing im afraid, try in #mozilla or #firefox | 12:37 |
| ActionParsnip | DVS01: wont mirc run via wine? | 12:37 |
| wgrant | DVS01: Wine? | 12:37 |

| maek | Bodsda, cheers | 12:37 |
| DVS01 | i tried mirc in wine.. it runs pretty bad | 12:37 |
| wgrant | DVS01: I prefer irssi. | 12:37 |
| ActionParsnip | DVS01: whats so great about mirc? | 12:37 |
| Bodsda | maek, your welcome | 12:37 |
| newbeginer9 | u mean type "sudo apt-get install xchat" inside terminal? | 12:37 |
| Kartagis | use kvirc | 12:38 |

| === Guest23577 is now known as SMokie | ||
| Bodsda | newbeginer9, yes | 12:38 |
| wgrant | newbeginer9: There's a better way - Application->Add/Remove. Search for XChat. | 12:38 |
| Slart | newbeginer9: yes | 12:38 |
| DVS01 | ActionParsnip: well ive been using it since 1995.. i like the interface | 12:38 |
| ActionParsnip | DVS01: fair point | 12:38 |
| Bodsda | wgrant, why is that a 'better' way? | 12:38 |
| === SMokie is now known as Zkunk | ||
| liam | Hi everyone | 12:38 |
| wgrant | Bodsda: Because there's no need to drop to the commandline just for this. | 12:38 |
| ActionParsnip | DVS01: like me and KDE | 12:38 |
| Bodsda | wgrant, whats wrong with dropping to cli? | 12:38 |
| wgrant | Bodsda: It gives people a bad impression, and it generally confuses people to death. | 12:39 |
| Ziroday | !repo | 12:39 |
| ubottu | The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories | 12:39 |
| DVS01 | ActionParsnip: its actually a pretty sweet setup.. logs and downloads are sent to a network drive, so the vm itself stores nothing important. if it gets a malware infection, etc... i simply load the latest snapshot | 12:39 |
| liam | Can I get some help with Ubuntu Drivers here? :-) | 12:39 |
| Bodsda | wgrant, i never use a gui app if theres a cli version, save FF and xchat -- it may confuse people but it doesnt mean gui is better | 12:39 |
| newbeginer9 | oic | 12:39 |
| ActionParsnip | DVS01: you can export logs via network mounts in linux apps, seems a bit of a space glutton for one measly app | 12:40 |
| wgrant | Bodsda: I am a rare GUI user as well, but it doesn't mean I need to subject all people to the CLI on their first day. | 12:40 |
| TuniX12 | liam: dont ask to ask | 12:40 |
| newbeginer9 | ubuntu ask me to update | 12:40 |
| wgrant | Bodsda: We don't develop GUI tools so people can ignore them. | 12:40 |
| newbeginer9 | should i need to update all? | 12:40 |
| ActionParsnip | liam: for what hardware | 12:40 |
| wgrant | newbeginer9: It is advisable - there are security updates. | 12:40 |
| liam | the S-Video card on Dell Insipirion 1525 | 12:40 |
| DVS01 | ActionParsnip: my irc setup is actually sorta funny.. for me to irc, 5 machines are involved. 1. vmware host, 2. winxp vm with mirc, 3. dvs01.net for the hostname, 4. comm box makes a tunnel to dvs01.net, 5. some machine VNC's to the winxp vm | 12:40 |
| TuniX12 | newbeginer as you want | 12:40 |
| ActionParsnip | liam: what graphics card is it? | 12:40 |
| Bodsda | wgrant, haha,. different views,.,.i would hate to see linux totally gui dependant so i like to suggest cli alternatives first,.,. but its a fair point that it confuses newcomers | 12:40 |
| Slart | wgrant: hmm.. can't really say I agree about the "bad impression" bit.. and from what I've seen in here, running stuff in a terminal doesn't confuse people that much.. but this is getting !ot I wont argue | 12:41 |
| ActionParsnip | DVS01: complicated much | 12:41 |
| wgrant | Bodsda: Oh, as would I. I find GUIs to be slow and cumbersome. | 12:41 |
| Bodsda | Slart, go on... you know you want to ;~) | 12:41 |
| wgrant | But they're easier to pick up for newbies. | 12:41 |
| liam | Intel Graphics Media Accelerator X3100 | 12:41 |
| Dr_willis_ | From what people ive taught the terminal is often VERY clear anc concise. :) much easier then looking over their shoulder and saying.. "no the next menu item.. now click over there..." :) | 12:41 |
| Slart | Bodsda: nggh... must resist urge.. ;) | 12:42 |
| Bodsda | wgrant, yep,.., it takes longer to do simple tasks aswell,.,. first thing i did on this install was add a terminal hotkey and start a terminal upon login ;~) | 12:42 |
| newbeginer9 | i saw xchat | 12:42 |
| LimCore | Dr_willis_: nonsense | 12:42 |
| Bodsda | Slart, the urge is too strong!!!!! | 12:42 |
| newbeginer9 | so just download it? | 12:42 |
| Bodsda | newbeginer9, yep | 12:42 |
| wgrant | newbeginer9: That's right. | 12:42 |
| DVS01 | ActionParsnip: it seems complex, but it works pretty well. theres also an added benefit in that i can actually have a secured windows setup.. since all it does is irc and is behind a nat (not to mention that i take snapshots in case of compromise), its actually a pretty secure winxp :D | 12:42 |
| ActionParsnip | liam: should work out of the box apparently, you just getting no svideo? | 12:43 |
| Bodsda | DVS01, did you just use the word 'secure' and the word 'windows' in the same sentence without 'NOT' being in there somewhere? | 12:43 |
| ActionParsnip | DVS01: you could make a bootable xp cd and put your mirc thing on it, system runs purely in ram then | 12:43 |
| Balachmar | Could anyone help me with setting up software raid, because I am confused if I need to create separate partitions before or after creating the raid 5 device | 12:44 |
| dlozarie | hi guys...how do I know if I'm using the latest version of Firefox? I've run the update mgr, but just want to make sure. :D | 12:44 |
| ActionParsnip | no need for snapshot storage | 12:44 |
| Bodsda | dlozarie, in a terminal type firefox --version | 12:44 |
| wgrant | dlozarie: In Firefox, run Help->About? | 12:44 |
| kidbuntu | mysql | 12:44 |
| liam | yeah the graphics card is working fine, but I cant get anything when I plug the laptop into the TV | 12:44 |
| kidbuntu | !mysql | 12:44 |
| ubottu | LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 12:44 |
| testola | hey! need to cut out parts of videos.. in avi files for example... what gui program can i use? | 12:44 |
| Slart | Balachmar: it's been a while since I did this.. but afaik you create the partitions first (there is a partition type for raid volume).. then create the software raid thingy | 12:44 |
| Bodsda | wgrant, gui vs cli,.,. which is faster for that task??? lol ;~) | 12:44 |
| dlozarie | Bodsda, thnx. wgrant, yeah I did that but I'm still not sure. it said firefox 3 tho. :D | 12:44 |
| wgrant | dlozarie: If it asked you to upgrade Firefox in the past 12 hours, you should have it? | 12:44 |
| wgrant | Bodsda: Firefox is a GUI application. | 12:45 |
| Slart | testola: avidemux or something | 12:45 |
| Slart | !info avidemux | 12:45 |
| ubottu | avidemux (source: avidemux): a free video editor - gtk version. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 1:2.4.1-0.0ubuntu1 (hardy), package size 2979 kB, installed size 7880 kB | 12:45 |
| Bodsda | wgrant, yeah, but finding the version is quicker with cli if the app isnt already loaded | 12:45 |
| dlozarie | wgrant, it says "Mozilla Firefox 3.0, Copyright (c) 1998 - 2008 mozilla.org" that's the latest, right? :D | 12:45 |
| wgrant | Whereas to do it through a terminal, one has to work out where on earth the terminal menu item is, and check they got the command right. | 12:45 |
| wgrant | Bodsda: Why wouldn't Firefox already be running? | 12:45 |
| wgrant | dlozarie: Yep. | 12:45 |
| Balachmar | @Slart which partitions need to have the bootable flag on then? only one or all? | 12:45 |
| wgrant | Balachmar: Not one. | 12:45 |
| Slart | Balachmar: oh.. you're booting from the raid? | 12:45 |
| dlozarie | yee-haw! off to boot into vista to participate in Download Day from there. thanks! | 12:46 |
| bakersfieldboy | i just woke up please help how do i use my terminal | 12:46 |
| poisonkiller | Ubuntus unrar is much faster than Windows's WinRAR... that is so cool :D | 12:46 |
| bakersfieldboy | lol | 12:46 |
| Slart | bakersfieldboy: Applications, accessoires, terminal | 12:46 |
| Balachmar | @Slart yes I want to boot from the raid as well | 12:46 |

| Bodsda | knew* | 12:46 |
| Slart | Balachmar: that's a different story then.. I've never done that before | 12:46 |
| wgrant | Bodsda: Same as any other GUI application since ~ Windows 3.1. | 12:46 |
| bakersfieldboy | ty | 12:46 |
| Bodsda | wgrant, yeah, but i dont use gui often so i no not of these things | 12:47 |
| bakersfieldboy | slart ty | 12:47 |
| Slart | you're welcome, bakersfieldboy | 12:47 |
| Balachmar | @Slart ok, I guess only root partition needs to be bootable | 12:47 |
| glitsj16 | hi all | 12:47 |
| testola | Slart: thx! | 12:47 |
| bakersfieldboy | ubottu ty | 12:47 |
| ubottu | You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-) | 12:47 |
| racquad | hi guys. I have an equipament in my network that I don't know which is it IP address. Do you know any tool that ping all the possible ip addresses, so I could find the IP of that equipament? | 12:47 |
| Bodsda | Balachmar, usually the partition that holds the /boot folder needs to be bootable | 12:47 |
| bakersfieldboy | jrib ty | 12:47 |
| wgrant | racquad: nmap | 12:48 |
| racquad | wgrant: with which options? | 12:48 |
| * wgrant vanishes for a few minutes. | 12:48 | |
| DVS01 | ActionParsnip: i dont have a physical machine for that, it'd end up being in a vm anyways | 12:48 |
| Balachmar | @bodsda that was what I meant, but you are more precise | 12:48 |
| Bodsda | Balachmar, yeah your right, you can have a seperate boot partition if you want, but then things with grub get complicated | 12:48 |
| bluekb | I am looking for a way to play sound out of both my speakers and headphones at the same time. I upgraded to 8.04 and now it seems when the headphones are plugged in I no longer have the option. | 12:49 |
| Balachmar | @bodsda, I want to create 3 partitions mounted to: /, swap and /home | 12:49 |
| liam | ActionParsnip any idea? | 12:49 |
| Balachmar | So only one of them needs to be bootable, the one for / right? | 12:50 |
| bakersfieldboy | no way ubottu is not a bot is it ??? | 12:50 |
| Bodsda | Balachmar, i have a GCSE exam in a min so i need to leave, but that is a normal partition table | 12:50 |
| jrib | Balachmar: yes, it is | 12:50 |
| Bodsda | Balachmar, the / partition needs to be bootable oon that setup | 12:50 |
| jrib | Balachmar: ignore me | 12:50 |
| Balachmar | @Bodsda thanks and good luck! | 12:50 |
| jrib | bakersfieldboy: yes, ubottu is a bot | 12:50 |
| * Balachmar wonders what GCSE stands for... | 12:51 | |
| Bodsda | Balachmar, cheers dude,.,. cya | 12:51 |
| Bodsda | i have no idea | 12:51 |
| bluekb | I have found several forum threads where people want to disable (do the opposite) having both go at the same time, but I'd like the control for whichever I feel like. | 12:51 |
| Balachmar | @Bodsda :D lol | 12:51 |
| Bodsda | Balachmar, -- google says..................General Certificate of Secondary Education | 12:51 |
| bakersfieldboy | lol too cool thay must have ever dum question in the book for it (ubotto) | 12:51 |
| Balachmar | Bodsda thanks and good luck again! | 12:52 |
| bakersfieldboy | want to see if i can ask bottu another question | 12:53 |
| quinn | bakersfieldboy, you can have a try | 12:53 |

| bakersfieldboy | lol i love it | 12:55 |
| Slart | bakersfieldboy: or use the !keyword thingy | 12:55 |

| math01141 | that happens at all hdrives | 12:57 |
| Slart | math01141: how do you check the permissions? in a terminal? using nautilus? | 12:57 |
| math01141 | nautilus | 12:57 |

| math01141 | xaxax | 12:58 |
| DVS01 | xanax? | 12:58 |
| Slart | math01141: try writing "dmesg" in a terminal and see if you can see the error there | 12:58 |
| glitsj16 | KC: have you tried the different video drivers in the preferences to check whether none of them gives you better results ? | 12:58 |
| Slart | math01141: use "dmesg | less" so you can use arrow up and arrow down to scroll | 12:58 |
| math01141 | hmmm | 12:59 |
| math01141 | that seems hard for me | 12:59 |
| Slart | math01141: in the menu Applications, accessories, click on terminal | 13:00 |
| Slart | math01141: then write "dmesg | less" without the quotation marks | 13:00 |
| vinboy | hi | 13:01 |
| vinboy | i just noticed that my laptop doesn't have pcmcia | 13:01 |
| vinboy | is that normal? | 13:01 |
| wgrant | vinboy: For laptops produced within the past 3 years, that's quite normal. | 13:01 |
| MrElendig | vinboy: some newer laptops have dropped pcmcia | 13:01 |
| vinboy | ok thx wgrant... i didn't notice it when i bought it :D | 13:01 |
| wgrant | Though the transition period for some manufacturers differs by a very long period. | 13:01 |
| MrElendig | often in favour for cardbus | 13:01 |
| wgrant | MrElendig: CardBus is 32-bit PCMCIA.... | 13:02 |
| vinboy | MrElendig: what is cardbus?? where to find it? | 13:02 |
| MrElendig | wgrant: in a smaller physical format | 13:02 |
| math01141 | i did that slart thx | 13:02 |
| vinboy | i only have USB and some standard port | 13:02 |
| math01141 | bud whats the meening of this? | 13:02 |
| wgrant | MrElendig: You mean ExpressCard? | 13:02 |
| wgrant | MrElendig: CardBus was around in '96. | 13:02 |
| Slart | math01141: to find the error message again | 13:02 |
| MrElendig | probably | 13:02 |
| MrElendig | :p | 13:02 |
| Slart | math01141: so you can paste it here =) | 13:03 |
| math01141 | thx | 13:03 |
| poisonkiller | how can i make my sound volume higher than maximum? | 13:04 |
| Slart | poisonkiller: well.. the definition of maximum kind of says it all.. you can't | 13:04 |
| erat123 | poisonkiller: put an amp on your speakers | 13:05 |

| IdleOne | what came first the chicken or the egg and how big was it? | 13:05 |
| poisonkiller | Slart: well, Ubuntu's maximum is lower that Windows's maximum, so there must be a higher maximum ^_^ | 13:05 |
| LimCore | poisonkiller: first, did you maximized all controlls in mixer? usually ther are at least 2 (main volume and "PCM" or other "sound") | 13:05 |
| === ActingTheGoat is now known as IWantMoreCowBell | ||
| Slart | poisonkiller: did you max all the levers? pcm/front/main etc ? | 13:05 |
| TuniX12 | IdleOne: dont spam please | 13:05 |
| arvind_khadri | wgrant, ya...in gmail to inbound labels i have created filters so that they dont flood my inbox | 13:05 |
| LimCore | poisonkiller: also, maximize the level in your audio/media player that you use - i.e. VLC usually plays at 50% volume | 13:06 |
| IdleOne | TuniX12, lol np sorry bout that | 13:06 |
| poisonkiller | LimCore: yes, except PCM which makes sound distorted if higher that 74% | 13:06 |
| wgrant | arvind_khadri: Those are represented as folders in IMAP. | 13:06 |
| LimCore | IdleOne: try #ubuntu-offtopic or #club-ubuntu | 13:06 |
| math01141 | xmmm.... thats look strange...... | 13:06 |
| math01141 | 62.032474] lo: Disabled Privacy Extensions | 13:06 |
| IWantMoreCowBell | what is the equivalent of c:\ on ubuntu | 13:06 |
| wgrant | math01141: That's lo. That's fine. | 13:06 |
| Slart | math01141: hang on.. let me see if I've got that too | 13:06 |
| wgrant | IWantMoreCowBell: / | 13:06 |
| Slart | math01141: ah.. network interfaces.. yes.. then it's ok | 13:06 |
| TuniX12 | wgrant: no | 13:07 |
| arvind_khadri | wgrant, :) thanks...am using evolution for the first time today...so can you tell me how to fetch | 13:07 |
| LimCore | poisonkiller: try playing with this values... if sound is distorted then you are laredy over maximum... are you SURE its less loud then on windows? also try asking #alsa (slow channel) | 13:07 |
| math01141 | how error look like? | 13:07 |
| TuniX12 | IWantMoreCowBell: its a different architecture | 13:07 |
| math01141 | type=1503 operation="inode_permission" requested_mask="a::" denied_mask="a::" name="/dev/tty" pid=5232 profile | 13:07 |
| math01141 | ="/usr/sbin/cupsd" namespace="default" | 13:07 |
| poisonkiller | LimCore: ok, im gonna test it a little :P | 13:07 |
| wgrant | arvind_khadri: If you tell it to use IMAP, you should see folders under your inbox, representing each tag. | 13:07 |
| age6racer | Hi all, I have had a long-term problem with slow searching in Evolution. It only affects one of my mailboxes. I thought that upgrading might help but it hasn't. Does anyone have any advice for me abotu how to fix the issue? I guess there is something in the mailbox file which Evolution is having trouble with. | 13:07 |
| wgrant | TuniX12: It's close enough that we don't need to confuse users with it. | 13:08 |
| arvind_khadri | wgrant, so i should re-configure my account to do that??? | 13:08 |
| IWantMoreCowBell | Is there a way to see the Linux partition from Windows ? | 13:08 |
| Dr_willis_ | IWantMoreCowBell, yes. several ways. | 13:08 |
| erUSUL | !ext3 | IWantMoreCowBell | 13:08 |
| ubottu | IWantMoreCowBell: ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org | 13:08 |
| wgrant | age6racer: Is there an option in the folder properties to rebuild the index? | 13:08 |
| cyan_ronin | is there any adult content filter for ubuntu? like naomi or k9 for windows? | 13:08 |
| arvind_khadri | IWantMoreCowBell, there a lots of ways...explore2fs is one of them | 13:08 |
| age6racer | I don'ty know. I'll have a look | 13:08 |
| Slart | cyan_ronin: I don't think there is anything system wide.. but you might find something for firefox | 13:09 |
| arvind_khadri | cyan_ronin, yeah there are...shoot up add/remove programs there is something you can find :) | 13:09 |
| cyan_ronin | k thanks Slart | 13:09 |
| Dr_willis_ | cyan_ronin, check out privoxy also. it may have filter 'rule/files' for different things. Other then ads. :) | 13:09 |
| IWantMoreCowBell | I tried to install fonts in the fonts folder, I get permission denied error | 13:10 |
| Dr_willis_ | cyan_ronin, theres also some 'make firefox kid friendly' extensions. but i forget their names. 'gubble' perhaps? | 13:10 |
| cyan_ronin | alright thanks :) | 13:10 |
| === math01141 is now known as math01141_away | ||
| age6racer | wgrant: the option to index message body data was unchecked. I've checked it and my CPU / RAM usga ejust shot up so I guess it's indexing now. Looks like this might fix it. I'll let everyone know when it's finished. | 13:11 |
| Slart | cyan_ronin: if I had to install some kind of filter, I'd do it on the router.. I used ipcop with a proxy plugin at a school where I worked.. it did an ok job | 13:12 |
| quinn | Slart, you can try Thunderbird . Tool-->Message filter | 13:14 |
| Slart | quinn: huh? | 13:15 |
| Slart | quinn: we're talking about adult content filters for linux systems | 13:15 |
| quinn | Slart, i make a mistake | 13:15 |
| Slart | quinn: =) | 13:16 |
| sb- | hello | 13:18 |
| sb- | im switching to linux | 13:18 |
| sb- | maybe | 13:18 |
| sb- | dunno | 13:18 |
| === AutumnCa1 is now known as AutumnCat | ||
| sb- | is UBUNTU good? | 13:18 |
| DVS01 | yes | 13:18 |
| Slart | sb-: good enough for me | 13:18 |
| TuniX12 | sb try it yourself | 13:18 |
| TuniX12 | maybe not good for you | 13:19 |
| DVS01 | you can use ubuntu's new wubi installer that installs ubuntu onto your windows partition and boots from that.. that allows you to try out ubuntu without having to repartition/reformat your hard drive(s) | 13:19 |
| quinn | sb-, what's your idear | 13:19 |
| sb- | I did try linux a year or two ago | 13:19 |
| Argon_ | just a general question | 13:19 |
| sb- | but it seemed like a mess | 13:19 |
| sb- | I have all my DATA on NTFS | 13:20 |
| Argon_ | who decides whats goes into the linux kernel? | 13:20 |
| Slart | can someone please try something for me.. start audacious and try moving it to another desktop with compiz enabled.. all other windows I can move by just pushing them against the window edge but not audacious.. most annoying | 13:20 |
| TuniX12 | linus trovalds | 13:20 |
| Baughn | And his trusted lieutenants | 13:20 |
| linduxed | Argon_: linux torvalds and his staff | 13:20 |
| linduxed | *linux | 13:20 |
| TuniX12 | Argon_: he is the maintainer | 13:20 |
| Slart | Argon_: a small group of developers, afaik.. lead by Linus | 13:20 |
| Argon_ | hmm | 13:20 |
| Baughn | Argon_: Why do you ask? | 13:21 |
| linduxed | *gaaaaah, linuS | 13:21 |
| Argon_ | I was thinking about this for a while | 13:21 |
| Argon_ | on 1 side linux is free/open/etc, | 13:21 |
| Slart | linduxed: hard to write linus.. =) that last 'x' is almost automatic =) | 13:21 |
| manuee | hello all | 13:22 |
| Argon_ | but on the other side you got the dictator who has absolut control about what goes in into the package and what not | 13:22 |
| kenny | hi all | 13:22 |
| TuniX12 | Argon_: every open source project has a maintainer who decide about what should be added or not linus is the maintainer of linux | 13:22 |
| Argon_ | in theory | 13:22 |
| Slart | Argon_: you can always take the source code and create a new linux.. but you cant force your will on linus's Linux =) | 13:22 |
| manuee | i'm pondering geting one of those dell laptops shipped with ubuntu.. anyone has one? any issues with them? | 13:22 |
| Baughn | Argon_: Well, /someone/ has to do quality control. You can fork it if you like. | 13:22 |
| kenny | i'm the one who install new ubuntu on laptop | 13:22 |
| IWantMoreCowBell | Is there no control panel to add fonts | 13:23 |
| kenny | previous nick is nebeginer | 13:23 |
| IWantMoreCowBell | should everything be so darn difficult? | 13:23 |
| Baughn | Argon_: We trust linux specifically because Linux is around to control what goes in it. There's no law stating only he can do that, it's just that he /does/ and you don't. | 13:23 |
| Slart | welcome back, kenny | 13:23 |
| Argon_ | I know | 13:23 |
| Slart | IWantMoreCowBell: not that I've found | 13:23 |
| oldenglish | Trying to get VirtualBox running, getting the error "* No suitable module for running kernel found." any time I try to start it. Kernel is 2.6.24-19-generic. | 13:23 |
| Argon_ | but shouldnt there be like democracy in the process | 13:23 |
| manuee | not dificult IWantMoreCowBell, diferent | 13:23 |
| Argon_ | like a foundation | 13:23 |
| Slart | IWantMoreCowBell: I just add my fonts to /usr/share/fonts/ or whatever the folder is called | 13:23 |
| Baughn | oldenglish: Make a module. Run the.. some program. | 13:24 |
| manuee | exactly Slart | 13:24 |
| IWantMoreCowBell | I cannot add fonts | 13:24 |
| oldenglish | Baughn: ...? | 13:24 |
| Baughn | Slart: ~/.fonts works too. ;) | 13:24 |
| Argon_ | with members who decides who has control | 13:24 |
| IWantMoreCowBell | it gives wierd errors | 13:24 |
| Slart | Baughn: ah.. I knew there had to be a better way =) | 13:24 |
| manuee | anyoen have experience with dell ubuntu laptops? do they run fine or do they have issues? | 13:24 |
| manuee | dont want to spend my cash on it if it isnt runing smooth from scratch | 13:25 |
| TuniX12 | IWantMoreCowBell: sup cp <path_of _fonts_to _add> /usr/share/fonts | 13:25 |
| Slart | Argon_: why? if you feel that would be a better organisation you can create it.. if more people share your view they will use your kernel | 13:25 |
| TuniX12 | IWantMoreCowBell: sorry sudo cp | 13:25 |
| _pennit_ | yö | 13:25 |

| Slart | DIFH-iceroot: there is a firewall .. but by default it doesn't do anything | 13:26 |

| TuniX12 | DIFH-iceroot: check that link | 13:27 |
| dr_Willis | sb-, there are some more specilized topic channels for some things. | 13:27 |
| DIFH-iceroot | TuniX12: thx i will | 13:27 |
| quinn | manuee, you can check it in DELL' homepage | 13:28 |
| sb- | kk thank | 13:28 |
| dr_Willis | manuee, i think there are some laptop specific forums also on the ubuntu forums. | 13:28 |
| manuee | i have i just want to hear from ppl with one... whats their experience with them | 13:28 |
| manuee | i see in the forums that ppl have issues i jsut want to know wether they are widespread or not... etc | 13:28 |
| TuniX12 | manuee: it's officially supported and cerified by canonical | 13:28 |
| manuee | i know the theory TuniX12 | 13:29 |
| manuee | :s | 13:29 |
| manuee | i take that dell provides all necessary drivers etc if reinstall is needed or? | 13:29 |
| manuee | for example, if i want to install ubuntu-studio on it | 13:30 |
| dr_Willis | manuee, i think they have their own tweaked ubuntu install cds | 13:30 |
| manuee | ah thats good dr_Willis | 13:30 |
| jrib | manuee: you should make sure you ask these questions to dell before you buy it as well | 13:30 |
| manuee | right | 13:30 |
| TuniX12 | manuee: dunno but ubuntu studio isn't official | 13:30 |
| manuee | will do that jrib | 13:30 |
| Kelen | is there any idea for me to play format RMVB video by MPlayer? | 13:30 |
| manuee | true TuniX12 | 13:30 |
| zorglu__ | can somebody type my nick 'zorglu__', this is for a test | 13:31 |
| manuee | but im not new to ubuntu i wanna know if i could find all the pieces of the puzzle for playing with the laptop myself | 13:31 |

| level09 | or should I get it | 13:50 |
| simmerz | Baughn: thanks | 13:50 |
| jrib | level09: vim-tiny is included. You should install "vim" | 13:50 |
| level09 | okay thanks | 13:50 |
| Ambient | vim is great | 13:50 |
| level09 | any thing better than nano is good :D | 13:50 |

| Balachmar | Could someone help me with installing grub on a raid 5 array? | 13:51 |
| jrib | level09: be forewarned, you need to learn to use vim. It will suck for the first couple of days. vimtutor will help you a lot | 13:51 |
| level09 | thanks :) | 13:52 |

| jrib | veggteppey: ##c++ is more appropriate for programming issues | 13:56 |
| kenny__ | let said like windows the application stop running, in windows can use ctrl+alt+delete to turn the application off | 13:56 |
| kenny__ | but inside ubuntu, How? | 13:56 |
| jrib | kenny__: system -> adiministration -> system monitor | 13:56 |
| IdleOne | kenny__, if you are trying to see what processes are running then go to System > Administration > System Monitor is what you want | 13:56 |
| veggteppey | hmm understandable, but it worked 1min ago^ | 13:56 |
| jrib | veggteppey: pastebin your code | 13:57 |
| veggteppey | to this chan? its gonna spam:P | 13:57 |

| jrib | !pastebin > veggteppey (read the private message from ubottu) | 13:57 |

| douye | Is it safe to remove xserver-xorg-video-nv ? | 14:01 |
| kenny__ | dunno where....:o( | 14:01 |
| sini | douye: should be as long as you don't kill X until you reinstall it | 14:01 |
| duende_ | hi people, what happens when i do /etc/init.d/networking force-reload ? will it interrupt all interfaces? | 14:02 |
| TuniX12 | douye: no it brokes dependencies | 14:02 |
| Baughn | duende_: TCP connections should survive even if it does | 14:02 |
| sini | douye: it shouldn't break dependancies if it works like debian | 14:02 |
| TuniX12 | kenny__: open terminal and type sudo top | 14:02 |
| Baughn | sini: It breaks the ubuntu-desktop dependency, at least | 14:03 |
| sini | :-/ | 14:03 |
| sini | stupid meta-packages | 14:03 |
| TuniX12 | than check the pid of process you want to kill | 14:03 |
| Baughn | sini: So you have to weigh convenience against half a meg of useless stuff. On a 500 gig disk, likely as not. | 14:03 |
| kenny__ | it ask me type the password | 14:03 |
| TuniX12 | and k[pid] within top | 14:03 |
| kenny__ | but i cannot type password | 14:03 |
| wgrant | TuniX12, kenny__: You might want to try killall. Or use the System Monitor | 14:03 |
| RogueX | where can i find some games to play anyone ? | 14:03 |
| simmerz | Baughn: the problem is that gnome-terminal allows me to change global settings for delete/backspace and I can get them working in each app as I'm running them, but then if i leave aptitude, I have to change it back. screen does the same thing. | 14:03 |
| douye | sini: guess i'll just leave it alone :P and try to completely remove the nvidia drivers and reinstall them | 14:03 |
| TuniX12 | kenny__: yes type your pass | 14:04 |
| jrib | kenny__: you type it but you do not see anything, that's normal | 14:04 |
| Dr_willis_ | kenny__, you do realize it does NOT echo what you type. no * no nothing. :) | 14:04 |
| wgrant | douye: -nv isn't the proprietary NVIDIA driver. | 14:04 |

| duende_ | cheers people | 14:04 |
| douye | sini: or is it a must that if your motherboard gets replaced (by the same one) ubuntu needs to be installed ? | 14:04 |
| jrib | kenny__: you should just do 'top' though, you don't need sudo | 14:04 |

| masterkiller | is the edgy repository not working? | 14:05 |
| duende_ | Baughn: well, eth0 has a seperate /29 subnet.. so now i'd like to add another /29 subnet to eth1 and make it active | 14:05 |
| TuniX12 | on ly those in user space | 14:05 |
| wgrant | masterkiller: Edgy is obsolete. | 14:05 |
| Baughn | duende_: You don't need to restart networking for that. Just ifup eth1 | 14:05 |
| kenny__ | because in the early finish install ubuntu | 14:05 |
| kenny__ | i open few menu | 14:05 |
| kenny__ | and it stuck | 14:06 |
| kenny__ | so i have no idea | 14:06 |
| wgrant | masterkiller: It was removed from archive.ubuntu.com some time ago. There are no security updates any more, so anybody using it really needs to upgrade. | 14:06 |
| douye | sini: pretty weird tho that my videocard wont work normally now then, as vista just runs it fine | 14:06 |

| kenny__ | i type top already and i can see the process but how to kill | 14:06 |
| wgrant | kenny__: kill | 14:07 |
| mysterycool | I've heard there is something that kind of generates a name on Windows. | 14:07 |
| duende_ | Baughn: omg, ofcourse.. seems logical.. sorry for this uber-stupid question man, thanks for the reminder | 14:07 |
| wgrant | Or killall. | 14:07 |

| matt_ | i REMEMBER reading something about a bootable cd that would overwrite a hard drive a certain number of times...IE if you are giving your computer away | 14:07 |
| matt_ | what is the name of such a thing? | 14:08 |
| masterkiller | wgrant: thanks for the response :) i have a pretty modified beryl desktop going, do you think the upgrade will break it? | 14:08 |
| NickGarvey | chell: I'm not seeing anything that shows how to do that | 14:08 |
| cando | mib_wr6rwe yes ! ubuntu-fr adress banned :/ | 14:08 |
| chell | mmm | 14:08 |
| kenny__ | if my laptop sudenly stuck even cannot move my mouse, what should i do? | 14:08 |
| chell | NickGarvey: apparently i need to dump my nvidia card's bios | 14:08 |
| masterkiller | wgrant: or rather, what can i do to prepare for it to boot to a normal gnome desktop (doesnt matter if it breaks i can fix just dont want ot get locked out and dead in the water) | 14:08 |
| wgrant | masterkiller: Beryl is horribly obsolete, but you can easily replace it with Compiz Fusion. | 14:08 |
| Slart | matt_: check out "wipe". I don't think it's installed by default | 14:09 |
| wgrant | masterkiller: Beryl is close enough to a normal GNOME desktop that it doesn't matter. | 14:09 |
| masterkiller | wgrant: hehe yea i guess its becoming obvious i set this up a long time ago =P | 14:09 |
| duende_ | bbl | 14:09 |
| wgrant | Just upgrade Edgy->Feisty->Gutsy->Hardy. | 14:09 |
| mysterycool | wgrant: Is Beryl like out of the market? Wasn't it combined with Compiz Fusion which comes only on Ubuntu? | 14:09 |
| mysterycool | :p | 14:09 |
| mysterycool | lol :p | 14:09 |
| masterkiller | wgrant: ok thanks i'll embark on the upgrade adventure :) | 14:09 |
| matt_ | Slart: wipe won't erase an entire hardisk though, will it? | 14:09 |
| wgrant | mysterycool: Beryl merged with Compiz to form Compiz Fusion, aaaages ago. | 14:09 |
| wgrant | It's nothing Ubuntu-specific. | 14:09 |
| mysterycool | wgrant: Oh, lol, ok :p | 14:10 |
| TuniX12 | kenny__: usb mouse? | 14:10 |
| Slart | matt_: yes it will.. I've used it several times on old hard drives.. takes forever though.. but there is a cd that does that on all connected drives when you boot from it.. google for disk wipe or something | 14:10 |
| quinn | maybe there is a way to upgrade system from Edgy to Hardy | 14:10 |
| wgrant | quinn: There is one supported upgrade path - Edgy->Feisty->Gutsy->Hardy. | 14:11 |
| masterkiller | wgrant: long ago i was often warned about upgrading major ubuntu versions, has that changed? | 14:11 |
| IdleOne | quinn, the only secure way is to upgrade to each consecutive release | 14:11 |
| erUSUL | quinn: step by step 6.10>7.04>7.10>8.04 | 14:11 |
| hwilde | quinn, sure, use the live cd | 14:11 |
| matt_ | Slart: I though wipe was like sudo wipe -r /path/to/dir/, how would you do an entire drive? | 14:11 |
| kenny__ | yes | 14:11 |
| kenny__ | usb mouse | 14:11 |
| wgrant | masterkiller: People who warn about that have probably done stupid things with their systems. | 14:11 |
| wgrant | masterkiller: Like using dodgy third-party repositoriers. | 14:11 |
| Slart | matt_: check the man page.. you can wipe devices too | 14:11 |
| TuniX12 | kenny__: unplug and replug | 14:11 |
| wgrant | Our upgrades are generally rock-solid. | 14:11 |
| kenny__ | oic | 14:12 |
| masterkiller | wgrant: haha ok, so no pitfalls I should look out for? (sorry last question) | 14:12 |
| wgrant | masterkiller: Probably not. | 14:12 |
| matt_ | Slart: so it'd be like wipe /dev/sdv1 | 14:12 |
| wgrant | We won't release with known pitfalls - that would be stupid. | 14:12 |
| TuniX12 | kenny__: try different port | 14:12 |
| masterkiller | wgrant: then hell i'll upgrade all my servers =P thanks bud have a good one | 14:12 |
| Slart | matt_: check the man page.. I don't remember the exact syntax | 14:12 |
| kenny__ | do you people always face ubuntu crash? just curious | 14:12 |
| matt_ | Slart: thanks | 14:12 |
| quinn | wgrant, i want to known if i can upgrade from 6.06 to 8.04 without upgrade to 7.04 and 7.10 | 14:12 |
| wgrant | masterkiller: One can go directly from Dapper to Hardy, but not from Edgy to Hardy. | 14:12 |
| TuniX12 | kenny__: never | 14:12 |
| wgrant | quinn: You can. | 14:12 |
| erUSUL | quinn: no; you cant | 14:12 |
| wgrant | quinn: But wait three weeks. | 14:12 |
| wgrant | quinn: 6.06 is Dapper - do you mean Edgy? | 14:13 |
| erUSUL | quinn: sorry from dapper you can from edgy no | 14:13 |
| TuniX12 | kenny__: it depends with hardware | 14:13 |
| IdleOne | wgrant, he should be able to do LTS to LTS | 14:13 |
| erUSUL | quinn: you said edgy on the other posts | 14:13 |
| wgrant | IdleOne: that is what I said. | 14:13 |
| cmdrtebok | i want to switch from the 64 bit back to the 32 bit, can i just put in the 32 bit cd and install it over this partition? | 14:13 |
| IdleOne | wgrant, oh did not see that | 14:13 |
| wgrant | I'm quite aware of supported upgrade paths, having fixed quite some issues myself. | 14:13 |
| TuniX12 | kenny__: maybe your hardware is not well supported | 14:13 |
| quinn | wgrant, i think it's 6.06 | 14:13 |

| Macen | ok, now that's out of the way, any time saving control panels that don't impose their control on the system or require domains be locked down with iptables, would be great | 14:15 |
| wgrant | RogueX: You should probably ask the assaultcube people. | 14:15 |

| quinn | yes | 14:16 |
| marius | ah ty | 14:16 |
| kenny__ | if open many many application in one time it's tht possible to make ubuntu crash? | 14:16 |
| quinn | wgrant, 6.06 , i use the LTS version only | 14:17 |

| IdleOne | kenny__, yes. anything is possible | 14:17 |
| llamo | my max volume is too low, is there a way to boost it? | 14:17 |
| IdleOne | llamo, louder speakers | 14:17 |
| Baughn | kenny__: But it's /hard/, especially with a decent amount of swap | 14:17 |
| wgrant | quinn: Any particular reason why? | 14:17 |
| llamo | thanks, but no. it's much louder when win is installed | 14:17 |
| kenny__ | now i understand | 14:17 |
| veevi | hm, when I try to play a videofile, it's able to show it, but the quality is quite low, some sort of noise ... lines in it,not sure if that's codec related?(because I think the vid card is working properly) | 14:18 |
| quinn | wgrant, just dont want to upgrade | 14:18 |
| llamo | i thought maybe there was a sound setting somewhere | 14:18 |
| TuniX12 | veevi | 14:18 |

| masterkiller | was beryl | 14:19 |
| quinn | wgrant, i think it also has some trouble to upgrade from one version to another. sometimes the system may broken | 14:19 |
| wgrant | quinn: 'it'? | 14:20 |
| veevi | mplayer or xine? :D | 14:20 |

| sun01tech | Baughn: media was fine changed to sata optical drive and no problems | 14:22 |
| quinn | wgrant, eg. the system cant work | 14:22 |

| Luhta | erUSUL, wgrant yes I know that I'm just having difficulties with wine and a brand new application and there is a mac option, so I figured I'd ask | 14:25 |
| LimCore | jhall: you can edit /boot/grub/menu.lst and add this option - or in GRUB when booting press 'e' for edit, then again 'e' to edit the kernel vmlinuz LINE in your boot entry and append there this option, so like: ..... root=.... apic=debug then boot 'b' and then do dmesg to see possible problems. | 14:25 |

| FantomRedux | any chance i could get some help with installing graphics drivers? | 15:17 |

| FantomRedux | thanks | 15:17 |
| kenny | i still don't understand | 15:17 |
| Nutubuntu | FantomRedux: FF3 has done the following since last night: gone zombie probably 30 times, crashed my window manager twice, restarted the computer once, and died in some unkillable way (ps aux shows it as "defunct" and kill won't kill it). Like I said, I'm about done with the instability. | 15:18 |
| kenny | very complicated in sharing file on network | 15:18 |
| dr_Willis | kenny, Using samba? well its a very powerfull server/system. If you just want to transfer a few files from widnows to/from linux. Install ssh server on linux, and winscp on windows | 15:19 |
| radioaktivstorm | hello, does anyone have experience with setting up crontab from the shell that could explain to me how to get a cron job to run a shell script? | 15:19 |
| Nutubuntu | Okay, off I go to restart. Thanks all | 15:20 |
| dr_Willis | radioaktivstorm, give the full path to the script, is about all ive had to do. | 15:20 |
| joaopinto | radioaktivstorm, man crontab, basically you need to specifyc the executing time according to the crontab man and the script filename to be executed | 15:20 |
| jrib | !cron > radioaktivstorm (read the private message from ubottu) | 15:20 |
| dr_Willis | radioaktivstorm, be sure the script is executable :) and dosent need input. | 15:20 |
| kenny | if i install samba, windows need to install samba too? | 15:21 |
| FantomRedux | erUSUL: I've got the drivers downloaded, but when I try to run them it comes up with saying only root can install | 15:21 |

| ghumman | hello | 16:17 |
| monster1g | Good morning! :) | 16:18 |
| soundray | !hi | ghumman | 16:18 |
| ubottu | ghumman: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 16:18 |
| ghumman | I am new to ubuntu | 16:18 |
| legend2440 | ircleuser: gimpshop is supposed to make gimp more like photoshop http://www.gimpshop.com/ | 16:18 |
| monster1g | I was wondering if someone could help me with installing wine | 16:18 |
| ghumman | and find it great | 16:18 |
| jrib | !wine > monster1g (read the private message from ubottu) | 16:18 |
| soundray | monster1g: 'sudo apt-get install wine' | 16:18 |
| jrib | monster1g: wine is in the repositories, so it's pretty easy. You install it like you install everything else in ubuntu: using a package manager | 16:19 |
| wng-- | Does the alternate CD still support dmraid installations(FakeRAID), I know it did a few versions back | 16:19 |
| soundray | ghumman: great -- do you have a support question? | 16:19 |
| soundray | wng--: I can't see why it would have changed | 16:20 |
| gnufied | i managed to screw my gf's ubuntu installation | 16:21 |
| soundray | gnufied: oh no! What did you do? | 16:21 |
| gnufied | i was trying to uninstall nvidia drivers | 16:21 |
| gnufied | nvidia-installer --uninstall | 16:21 |
| gnufied | i ran this command while running X | 16:21 |
| wng-- | thats not screwed at all | 16:21 |
| gnufied | and now, X won't start | 16:21 |
| wng-- | gnufied: can you get to a command line? | 16:22 |
| gnufied | not only that, when i boot, I get nice blank screen | 16:22 |
| KC | you need put in command mold.. and stop X server. | 16:22 |
| gnufied | i can't use Alt-Control-1..6 | 16:22 |

| adac | I had to remove some self written programs and some self compiled stuf to an external disk. Now i set the paths on .bashrc but is seems that i cannot execute them anymore, Is this a mounting issue? | 16:23 |
| gnufied | wng--, and tried to fix X and rebooted | 16:23 |
| wng-- | gnufied: vim /etc/X11/xorg.conf and change nvidia to vesa | 16:23 |
| gnufied | wng--, yeah, i got rid of nvidia old X config file | 16:23 |
| EvilDennisR | adac: What errors are you getting when you run them? | 16:23 |
| gnufied | wng--, yet i get same blank screen | 16:23 |
| brianherman | sorry | 16:23 |
| soundray | wng--: why not change it to nv? (gnufied) | 16:23 |
| wng-- | soundray: in my experience nv doesnt work half the time | 16:24 |
| gnufied | wng--, why the hell, i am not able to do A-C-1 .. 6 man? | 16:24 |
| soundray | gnufied: no swearing please | 16:24 |
| wng-- | gnufied: that's got me stumped, try just booting to init 3 instead | 16:24 |

| adac | yes I'm root, and owner is root | 16:25 |
| gnufied | soundray, yes it is | 16:25 |
| adac | EvilDennisR: paths are fine trust me | 16:26 |
| dupondje | Hello, I just installed Ubuntu on my laptop. My laptop has a sda1 (internal hdd with windows). And I installed Ubuntu on a external disk (/dev/sdc). But when I boot I get (Grub Loading Stage 1.5, Error 21) ... Any id how I can solve it ? | 16:26 |
| EvilDennisR | adac: Well it looks like you're all set and don't need my help. Good day. | 16:26 |
| adac | EvilDennisR: I checked them 3 times | 16:26 |
| buckie | hi can anyone tell me how i browse ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts from the ubuntu gui ? | 16:26 |
| nickrud | buckie you have to put a script in therre first, then it'll display the scirpts (and browse) in right click | 16:26 |
| soundray | gnufied: I suggest you boot to single again and run 'sudo update-rc.d gdm -f remove'. Then you'll probably at least be able to use six virtual terminals after the next reboot. | 16:27 |
| adac | EvilDennisR: wow are you a woman or what? | 16:27 |
| buckie | nickrud, I know :) but I cant seem to find the directory in the gui ? | 16:27 |
| soundray | gnufied: which config did you get rid of exactly? | 16:27 |
| gnufied | soundray, xorg.conf | 16:27 |
| nickrud | buckie ah, then hit ctl-h in the browser :) | 16:27 |
| soundray | gnufied: just rm'd it? | 16:27 |
| RAdams | I can't seem to get my samba shares working... I've read the man page, set it up correctly, but I can't see other shares on a windows machine, nor can the windows machine see mine... | 16:27 |
| wng-- | gnufied: why'd you delete that!??? | 16:27 |
| nickrud | buckie while in your home dir, that is | 16:27 |
| soundray | wng--: it's not needed in 8.04 | 16:27 |
| wng-- | soundray: oh, thats his problem then | 16:28 |
| MrElendig | RAdams: make sure you are in the same work group | 16:28 |
| buckie | nickrud, niiice :D 10000 thx to you m8 :) | 16:28 |
| gnufied | soundray, yeah, because i thought, it was trying to load nvidia drivers and i knew its not needed in 8.04 and i should be able to get some sort of X | 16:28 |
| wng-- | gnufied: what you want to do is to boot to init 3, write a short xorg.conf with only lines for vesa drivers | 16:28 |
| RAdams | MrElendig: I *have* to be in the same workgroup as the windows machine? | 16:28 |
| wng-- | and then startx | 16:28 |
| gnufied | i am in recovery mode, but no internet, its a notebook, needs wireless | 16:28 |
| MrElendig | RAdams: idealy, yes | 16:29 |
| wng-- | gnufied: do you know how to boot to init 3? | 16:29 |
| kaotik_chris | why cant I download files via xdcc | 16:29 |
| soundray | gnufied: do you have any /etc/X11/xorg.conf* backups? | 16:29 |
| RAdams | MrElendig: after I change smb.conf, do I need to restart samba? and if so, is that /etc/init.d/samba restart? | 16:29 |
| jrib | wng--: runlevels 2-5 are identical on ubuntu by default | 16:29 |
| kokiry | salve a tutti | 16:29 |
| wng-- | wow, ubuntu screws everything up | 16:30 |
| buckie | nickrud, I dont need to install the scripts, just place them in the folder right ? | 16:30 |
| wng-- | gnufied: okay, do you have access to your filesystem | 16:30 |
| gnufied | soundray, no, i just removed them all. call me crazy | 16:30 |
| jrib | wng--: it inherits that behavior from debian. I'm not sure why you think anything is screwed up | 16:30 |
| nickrud | buckie correct | 16:30 |
| gnufied | wng--, i am in recovery mode and i have access to fs | 16:30 |
| wng-- | gnufied: okay, create an xorg.conf in the usual place | 16:30 |
| wng-- | gnufied: only include these 3 lines: | 16:31 |
| kaotik_chris | can anyone tell me how to get xdcc downloading to work? | 16:31 |
| sportman1280 | Can ubuntu read XD cards? It doesnt seem to load Xd on my laptop. But SD works | 16:31 |
| wng-- | gnufied: Section "Device" | 16:31 |
| kaotik_chris | in xchat | 16:31 |
| buckie | nickrud, im installing a script to mount iso files, but i dont get the "scripts" option when rightclick the files | 16:31 |
| wng-- | gnufied: Identifier "Card0" | 16:31 |
| wng-- | gnufied: Driver "vesa" | 16:31 |
| gnufied | wng--, paste it somewhere? | 16:31 |
| MrElendig | what is realy fucked up, is that ubuntu/debian starts a load of services when you install them | 16:31 |
| wng-- | gnufied: okay | 16:31 |
| MrElendig | >_> | 16:31 |
| soundray | gnufied: wng-- forgot EndSection | 16:32 |
| MrElendig | it's like the 3.rd worst idea from a security standpoint, ever | 16:32 |
| newbee617 | how can i change the default white foregound color of xterm to green ,guys? | 16:32 |
| wng-- | gnufied: http://pastebin.com/m6bb0abef | 16:32 |
| soundray | MrElendig: please use professional language in here | 16:32 |
| wng-- | gnufied: after that, save xorg.conf and try booting, it should be okay, I had that same problem with F9 the other day | 16:32 |
| soundray | gnufied: before you boot... | 16:33 |
| kaotik_chris | MrEmlendig: at least its not like windows | 16:33 |
| Chousuke | MrElendig: What services does Ubuntu install by default? | 16:33 |
| gnufied | soundray, yeah? | 16:33 |
| Chousuke | MrElendig: none, that I'm aware of. | 16:33 |
| Chousuke | MrElendig: internet facing, that is. | 16:33 |
| soundray | gnufied: do the 'update-rc.d gdm -f remove' so it gives you virtual consoles instead of trying to boot straight into X | 16:33 |
| nickrud | buckie try killall nautilus , that should make it see the script | 16:34 |
| soundray | gnufied: if 'sudo invoke-rc.d gdm start' works with the vesa driver, you can restore it with 'sudo update-rc.d gdm defaults' | 16:34 |

| RAdams | ragsagar: it sounds like you're likely missing a number of packages. when installing a very minimal system as you are, a pretty keen grasp of necessary packages and libs is needed. it sounds like you could be missing sudo. If you don't have root access, it's because root's password isn't set. and without sudo, you likely can't modify the file needed to set root's password. You may need to reinstall. You might want to check out JeOS as well. | 17:13 |

Note that it will take a long time to upgrade as you need to do edgy -> feisty -> gutsy -> hardy. It will be a lot faster if you just backup and do a fresh hardy install | 17:44 |

| GreenDelta | k, i have ubunTU 8.04 and a GForce 5600 in a VAIO PC... when i booted first time after setup i was asked about installing a driver, which i need to use "extra visual effects". so i clicked ok to install. then i had to reboot and after a reboot i had a maximum resolution of 640x530 and something about 256 colors. it all looked a little bit "broken"... it was a really hard job to deactivate the driver because all windows were to big for this | 18:14 |

| SRed | yaym evidently | 19:04 |
| snarkster | we are what we eat. | 19:04 |
| Slart | Wispring: then it would be something like this.. "sudo cp /media/disk/mystuff/* /var/ftp/" | 19:04 |
| sportman1280 | erUSUL: thats the one that doesnt want to work for some reason. a reason i would like to figure out | 19:04 |
| Dillizar | erUSUL: and once with mandriva but that was yeas ago | 19:04 |
| mardi_soir | hello | 19:04 |
| unavailable | snarkster so im a bag of chips? | 19:04 |
| SRed | unavailable that was supposed to be where you type the directory name | 19:04 |

| Abdieuser | ##ubuntu-br | 19:04 |
| unavailable | sred rofl | 19:04 |
| Abdieuser | sorry | 19:04 |
| Slart | Wispring: the /media/disk/mystuff part is just a guess.. you'll have to change it to the path of the files you want to copy | 19:04 |
| sportman1280 | erUSUL: i get a message that says Start: applet not initialized | 19:04 |
| z0man | gah | 19:04 |
| snarkster | unavailable: yes tastey chips wheres the dip? | 19:04 |
| erUSUL | sportman1280: well openjdk/icedtea is not a complete replacement things are supposed to break | 19:04 |
| SRed | also you can gksu and nautilus to open an explorer window and make the dir in the directory | 19:05 |
| erUSUL | sportman1280: wich page i can tr it out here | 19:05 |

| kora | hi, i removed the network manager with apt because i needed to test a few things with iwconfig and i thought network manager made problems (which wasnt the case). i reinstalled network manager but i dont have that fancy gnome-panel applet installed again. any1 knows what package that is? | 19:05 |
| * SRed does not know how to officially ask a question in here though | 19:05 | |
| snarkster | sred why not just sudo mkdir /path/to/directory | 19:05 |
| Wispring | Slart ok i give it a go | 19:05 |
| z0man | My samba is broken :( Since the upgrade to Hardy......I had this nice simple smb.conf file that had just 3 lines and everything work....Till hardy came. | 19:05 |
| sportman1280 | ive tried java.com, and a couple of the university pages | 19:05 |
| Slart | SRed: just ask the question, on one line | 19:05 |
| sportman1280 | none have worked | 19:05 |
| Slart | Wispring: lots and lots of files? | 19:05 |
| erUSUL | SRed: all in one line with as many details as you can | 19:05 |
| Xorothal | can somebody pm me and take me through enabling USB support in VirtualBox in hardy, I've followed several guides on the internet and non have seemed to work | 19:06 |
| sportman1280 | erUSUL: facebook doesnt work either | 19:06 |
| SRed | snarkster I think he wanted to do it in the gui | 19:06 |
| z0man | I cannot seem to get a default smb.conf anymore | 19:06 |
| z0man | hmmm | 19:06 |
| SRed | sending someone to the command linecan be scary | 19:06 |
| linux_User | <IndyGunFreak: thx a lot i did it. | 19:06 |
| snarkster | z0man: oh i hate that and you didnt make a backup ofyour smb.conf? | 19:06 |
| SRed | i'm lucky if my computer reboots once I've spent time 'fixing' it in command line | 19:06 |
| z0man | Ya I have | 19:06 |
| z0man | its only 3 lines lol | 19:06 |
| SRed | SO HERE IS A QUESTION how would you go about adding 'boot to command line' to grub? | 19:06 |
| z0man | i show content in paste bin | 19:07 |
| snarkster | z0man: then share it dude. of course remove any security related stuff | 19:07 |
| SRed | I know that gdm launches the gui....I just don't know how to not launch gdm | 19:07 |
| VSpike | I don't get it - /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny are all empty apart from comments - surely that means access control is disabled? | 19:07 |
| * Slart thinks ubuntu should come with some kind of autobackup of /etc .. save the last 5 days or something.. shouldn't take that much space | 19:07 | |

| erUSUL | sportman1280: i do not use facebook... | 19:07 |
| DASPRiD | Slart, just use rsnapshot | 19:07 |
| Slart | SRed: I'm guessing you want to mess with /boot/grub/menu.lst in some way | 19:07 |
| SRed | ....thank you slart. | 19:08 |
| Xavura | Here's a good question | 19:08 |
| Xavura | Why is it stupidly hard to set-up hardware on Ubuntu | 19:08 |
| SRed | any recommendations what kind of messing to do? | 19:08 |
| Az | guys, i wanted to set default audio default to SPDIF, so i set asound.conf up appropiately, but when i play mp3's the sound playback is echo'ey.... tested SPDIF with aplay -D etc and seems to work? | 19:08 |
| SRed | Xavura bc we want to feel smart and so we make it all difficult | 19:08 |
| Slart | DASPRiD: I already do it.. but it would be a nice feature to have by default.. considering how many.. "oh my god I've changed so many things and now nothing works"-questions we get here | 19:08 |

| SRed | Slart: it'd be cool though. Especially if you can edit battery consumption with ACPI and all. I could use m laptop for weeks as a journal | 19:09 |

| IWantMoreCowBell | can someone help me install fonts | 19:19 |
| EvilDennisR | Mr_Cool59: pretty much any player will use the m3u files | 19:19 |
| jagggy | sory for interupting, but how is the file called for vim like when it starts it auto execs some commands? | 19:19 |
| RAdams | IWantMoreCowBell: what fonts are you trying to install? | 19:19 |
| IWantMoreCowBell | truetype | 19:20 |
| EvilDennisR | Mr_Cool59: You do have to make sure that the paths in the m3u files are correct though, ie. c:\Program Files\junk\mp3z\ will not work | 19:20 |

| RAdams | IWantMoreCowBell: the files need to be inside /usr/share/fonts, anywhere in there is fine, but for organization's sake there's already a truetype folder. After you drop them in, rebuild the font cache with sudo fc-cache -f -v | 19:21 |
| IWantMoreCowBell | why is installing fonts on linux so "different" | 19:21 |
| EvilDennisR | robuntu: sure, pastebin the file and I'll look at it | 19:21 |

| EvilDennisR | robuntu: If it can't find a makefile then thats specific to the stuff you are making.. | 19:22 |

| Lapinux | the only reason i caught it was i thought i saw a bunch of duplicate messages when i booted up, thought maybe the updates i just did might of done something | 19:31 |

| jrib | RAdams: dpkg -L PACKAGE | 19:35 |
| Hodge | Is there a list of pros and cons perhaps I can read over? | 19:35 |
| jpeirce | robuntu: just out of curiousity, have you tried 'apt-get remove build-essential' and then reinstalling it? | 19:35 |
| jrib | Hodge: just try both and use the one you prefer | 19:35 |
| duxo | Hello, can anyone here help me out with QGRUBEditor? | 19:35 |
| EvilDennisR | RAdams: wait, did you mean show what gets installed ? | 19:35 |
| jrib | jpeirce, robuntu: I'd try purging binutils directly and reinstalling that | 19:35 |
| robuntu | jpeirce: nope but it sounds like a good plan | 19:35 |
| kyncani | Hodge: many comparisons on the web. But as jrib said, you should try both and choose for yourself | 19:35 |
| duxo | It's a very simple problem which I'm guessing has a very easy solution. | 19:35 |
| EvilDennisR | RAdams: apt-cache show or dpkg -L | 19:35 |
| RAdams | EvilDennisR: you gave me what I needed. Thanks :) | 19:36 |
| jpeirce | robuntu: add to that list binutils as well, shouldnt hurt anything | 19:36 |
| duxo | I'm trying to make my GRUB have a splash image. I'm using QGRUBEditor to make that happen. I can add the image, I can even preview it. However, it just doesn't show when booting up and viewing GRUB... Anyone? Please? Been hassling with this for an hour now :) | 19:36 |
| Slart | duxo: never heard of a QGRUBEditor.. we just recommend editing the config files with a text editor | 19:37 |
| s0ullight | Slart, tnx man :D | 19:37 |
| EvilDennisR | duxo: apt-get install startupmanager | 19:37 |
| duxo | Slart: Yeah, well, that might be a problem for me considering I've been using Linux for less than 24 hours :) | 19:37 |
| bmk789 | why was the "Shared Folders" tool taken our of hardy? | 19:37 |
| Slart | s0ullight: you were able to open the file now? | 19:37 |
| EvilDennisR | duxo: startupmanager has an easy way to setup a splash screen | 19:37 |
| duxo | EvilDennisR: Thx! | 19:38 |
| EvilDennisR | duxo: it will show up under system -> administration when you install it | 19:38 |
| s0ullight | still downloading the .deb packages | 19:38 |
| v0lksman | anyone got a source on ktorrent 3.1 deb? | 19:38 |
| Slart | duxo: naah.. we'll walk you through it.. you might even learn something in the process =) | 19:38 |
| Finiras | qtgrubeditor works for me... never tried to setup a new splash image though | 19:38 |
| robuntu | jpeirce: whoh weird, i think you might have been the winner, in my synaptic it said it was installed, but when i went to remove it in term, it said not installed so im reinstalling it now | 19:38 |
| Slart | duxo: what are you trying to do? | 19:38 |
| RAdams | EvilDennisR: in addition to what you gave me, is there a way from commandline to output all the files a package installs, and where they go? | 19:38 |
| jpeirce | robuntu: cross your fingers :) | 19:38 |
| Slart | duxo: ahh.. grub splash.. oh.. | 19:38 |
| duxo | Slart: i'll try the easy version with apt-get =) | 19:39 |

| robuntu | jpeirce: HAHAHAHA woo hoo i think its working | 19:39 |
| EvilDennisR | duxo: if you apt-get install startupmanager it should install the additional stuff it needs | 19:40 |
| jpeirce | robuntu: awesome | 19:40 |
| Ahadiel | RogueX, Sounds like you need to install xmms. sudo apt-get install xmms | 19:40 |
| robuntu | jpeirce: omg its so pretty look at all the lines | 19:40 |
| EvilDennisR | what? | 19:40 |
| jpeirce | robuntu: must have been a failed install or something | 19:40 |
| Guest92364 | wheres some dood docs on learning ubuntu? | 19:40 |
| Slart | RogueX: xmms isn't available any more.. it wasn't maintained so they removed it | 19:40 |
| EvilDennisR | xmms is not in the repository anymore | 19:40 |
| duxo | EvilDennisR: Then it's sudo apt-get install startupmanager? | 19:40 |
| RogueX | oh ok | 19:40 |
| Slart | !xmms | 19:40 |
| ubottu | For the reason why xmms is no longer in the hardy repositories see: http://bugs.debian.org/461309 . Consider using audacious instead. | 19:40 |
| RogueX | soo i cant use that? | 19:40 |
| Flare183 | RogueX: its not recommended | 19:40 |
| EvilDennisR | duxo: Yeah.. Sorry, I'm old skool, I just assume everyone is at a root prompt =) | 19:40 |
| Ahadiel | RogueX, AFAIK most other audio applications can handle streams. | 19:41 |
| Slart | RogueX: I don't know if audacious works as a drop in replacement.. | 19:41 |
| RogueX | what else can i use ? | 19:41 |
| Kopfgeldjaeger | When I've started vdr with runvdr... How can I use it? I mean, where does it run? It doesn't run on TTY7, on TTY8 there's the vdr log | 19:41 |
| Ahadiel | RogueX, ie. amarok, rhythmbox, banshee, etc | 19:41 |
| duxo | EvilDennisR: xD | 19:41 |
| RogueX | i tryed vlc but it drops out | 19:41 |

| c_lisp | np | 19:53 |
| kyncani | masterkiller: 1) don't forget to apt-get update. 2) don't use upgrade, it's useless, usr dist-upgrade (or full-upgrade in ubuntu i think) instead. 3) official way to upgrade is to use upgrade-manager, as indicated in the first link in the sources.list i gave you (i think) | 19:54 |

| jedimind | i just orderd a new laptop and im wondering whats ubuntu support like for 1) blue ray (burning in particular) 2) solid state harddrives | 20:28 |
| Jack_Sparrow | peppo hd2 is Hard Drive 3 ... gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst | 20:28 |
| Slart | peppo: "gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst".. change it.. then "sudo update-grub" | 20:28 |
| Slart | peppo: if you edit it right you won't have to | 20:28 |
| peppo | so what I need to do is install GRUB MBR to hd0, always | 20:28 |
| Miesco | How would I play an ISO as if it were on a CD? | 20:28 |
| peppo | Slart, but BIOS will always tell GRUB that my boot devices is "hd2,0", but Ubuntu has it wrong. | 20:29 |
| Slart | peppo: nope.. depends on the BIOS.. you can set your BIOS to boot from any drive.. at least I can do that | 20:29 |
| kyncani | Robert125: or using dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg (that's system-wide) | 20:29 |
| peppo | Slart, yes. that's not the problem | 20:29 |

| peppo | Slart, even if I change the boot order, the devices are callled the same in GRUB. hd1,0 is still hd1,0 even if the boot order is changed in bios. | 20:29 |
| Slart | ^Migs^: google for "reset iptables script".. | 20:29 |
| Slart | peppo: yes.. and that is a problem? | 20:30 |
| peppo | Slart, yes because GRUB makes a menu.lst with "hd2,0" | 20:30 |
| peppo | Slart, to be able t boot off of that I need to change it to hd0,0 | 20:30 |

| Slart | peppo: I'm going to say this slowly.. edit it right and you wont have to | 20:31 |

| jpeirce | TalioGladius: agreed, I gave up for the day earlier | 20:33 |
| kyncani | peppo: nope, it's not, groot is the root partition (or boot partition if you have a separate /boot i think) | 20:33 |
| peppo | kyncani, then I have a problem. even if I edit menu.lst, I'll have to redo it every time ubuntu updates a kernel. | 20:33 |

| gogl24 | Irfan|31337: compiz does that ? because everytime I reboot im back at a clean desktop | 20:40 |

| kyncani | marko-_-: preferences -> audio -> output modules gives a module list, just try them all. | 21:56 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Erg1 I dont know how, but you could md5 the cd you used to install? | 21:56 |
| Bizzeh | so.... why does scrolling in firefox knock out all sound output to the speakers on ubuntu? | 21:56 |
| quinten | slayton: probably true, but if it's possible to tell the installer to use the filesystem i mounted, i'd prefer that | 21:56 |
| cb_ | i get 3 seconds of sound then it breaks | 21:56 |
| Slayerwhite | can you not boot into the ubuntu cd to install it like windows | 21:56 |
| Erg1 | Jack_Sparrow: im not sure how, can i md5 the cd im booted with ? | 21:56 |
| kyncani | marko-_-: as for the quality and interface, i don't like vlc very much but when nothing else is working, well ... | 21:56 |
| slayton | quinten, I'm pretty sure you can do it... I was reading about how to restore grub via the live cd and I came across some instructions like that.. but I'm not quite sure | 21:57 |
| brandon|work | Slayerwhite, you want the alternate CD | 21:57 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Erg1 I dont know if that is possible or not | 21:57 |
| graft | can anyone provide the skinny on updating to the firefox 3 final release? | 21:57 |
| Dillizar | so i just need just not to select the home particion ? Jack_Sparrow right | 21:57 |
| SpaceApache | Bizzeh: Have you tried selecting ALSA in all the fields on the first page of System ---> Preferences ---> Sound ? | 21:57 |
| marko-_- | kyncani, woops... i needed to chose the "profesional look" if you know what i mean... and about the quality the picture is violate... (don't know if it's spelled like that) | 21:57 |

| cb_ | been trying to get sound working all day i get normal system sounds and 3 seconds from vlc or mp3 plays | 21:58 |
| quinten | slayton: i got as far as figuring out how to mount the squashfs filesystem from w/in the iso, and then chrooting | 21:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Dillizar you need to do manual.. you need to set the mount point for / "root" a mount point for /home and do not put a check next to the box that says format this partition | 21:58 |
| EvilDennisR | unavailable: No | 21:58 |
| EvilDennisR | unavailable: That will change all occurances of hd2 to hd0 and put everything back in menu.lst | 21:58 |
| slayton | quinten: its' not exactly what you've been looking for but its all I know | 21:58 |
| quinten | slayton: at which point it obviously couldn't communicate with the x-server | 21:58 |
| EvilDennisR | unavailable: use a real editor if you want to search and replace yourself | 21:58 |

| cb_ | ls -al *mp3 | wc -l | 21:59 |
| EvilDennisR | MrPocknix_: ls *.mp3|wc | 21:59 |
| marko-_- | it does that in every file.. not only in one... so i don't see the need to sending a file | 21:59 |
| SpaceApache | In the drop-down fields, there should only be one entry for ALSA. There are other non-ALSA specific entries | 21:59 |
| MrPocknix_ | whats the wc? | 21:59 |
| Dillizar | d'accord Jack_Sparrow thank you very alot | 21:59 |
| zcat[1] | anyone here familiar with squid. mine is dropping everything, if I chose and reopen firefox and go back through the same webpages, just about everything is a miss and gets downloaded again. http://pastebin.com/f44bbb1a7 | 21:59 |

| cb_ | Anyone have a second to help me with sound been trying allday | 21:59 |
| kyncani | marko-_-: in every file, so it's not a malformed / not very well formed avi file | 22:00 |
| robuntu | I just installed my latest fx drivers and i restarted and it went into low graphics mode, so i had to manualy configure my monitor model and fx drivers, and then i reboot but 3d acceleration is not active, so i enable it and it tells me to restart so i do and it goes back to low graphics mode, im stuck in a loop, if this helps after installing the drivers under nvidia xserver settings, when i open it it says, You do not appear to be u | 22:00 |
| marko-_- | kyncani, i don't know what you mean... but it does that in .mp4 files and .avi files (didn't try others now) | 22:00 |
| Dillizar | k k Jack_Sparrow but i have a wuestion my home is bigger than the free space ?? what should i do | 22:00 |
| quinten | slayton: is that on the live cd? or do i need to download a new disk image? i would have just burned this one but i can't burn a cd w/o taking out the live cd, and i already blew away the existing filesystem so i can't boot to get a cd burner ... | 22:00 |
| marko-_- | i am 100% sure that if i restart the X now it will work for a while like it always does kyncani | 22:00 |

| cb_ | chmod +x file | 22:01 |
| SpaceApache | Bizzeh: Odd. In the drop-down list under "Default Mixer Tracks" select your sound card. There could be a couple of entries, try to make sure it's the branded one. It's easier too if you have 1 card :) | 22:01 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Dillizar copy cant help you if you dont have room .. you can consider backing it up to another media | 22:01 |
| slayton | quinten, I think the alternate install is a seperate disc | 22:02 |
| slayton | sorry | 22:02 |
| kyncani | marko-_-: i see, well, in vlc, if you have the audio working, you could try different video drivers (also in settings) | 22:02 |
| Bizzeh | SpaceApache: i have 3 cards (pci audigy, built in realtek and ati hdmi).. but they are all branded, and i did try that, i cant seem to get any sound at all unless i use auto detect | 22:02 |
| BCM43 | !audio | Bizzeh did you see this? | 22:03 |
| ubottu | Bizzeh did you see this?: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3 | 22:03 |
| marko-_- | kyncani, i tried what you told me... the sound still doesn't work :( | 22:03 |
| slayton | how much free space do you have on your external hdd? You might consider partitining the drive with the liveCD. coping the liveCD image to the new partition and try booting from the drive. then you can reburn a valid install cd | 22:03 |
| slayton | quinten: see post above | 22:03 |

| exco | if I'm hibernating in XP is it normal that all ntfs partitions aren't available in Ubuntu? | 22:19 |
| QAH | BCM43: Oh boy. Well, when I install it from the live cd, can I pick what HDD I wan't to install it on? | 22:19 |
| KlrSpz | exco: yes, it sets a bit saying it wasn't a clean shutdown | 22:20 |
| BCM43 | QAH: you mean which you do? | 22:20 |
| exco | KlrSpz: is there a way around that? | 22:20 |

| marko-_- | kyncani, "To disable pulseaudio in hardy you need to select alsa for for all options in /system/preferences/sound " it is like that... anyway i will try to restart the X... i'm really not in the mood anymore :/ | 22:20 |

| QAH | BCM43: Okay. I have one more question. Why doesn't my keyboard allows me to choose different options when the live cd is about to start up? | 22:21 |
| Bizzeh | i think there is a conspiracy going on with computers.. they are a badly designed technology for a reason... to make you buy the new stuff, if they where designed via the design i drew up in college, you would only ever need 1 motherboard again, and after that everything else would be another transparent addition meaning that an ata, sata, usb, firewire hdd would all be the same, as would be all roms and flash cards. there would | 22:21 |

| BCM43 | noor: lol, i told it to say that | 22:22 |
| Nitricacid | Bizzeh: why dont you just work for a motherboard company, that idea would make billions.. | 22:22 |
| elTigre | bcm43: Sorry, that wasn't helpful. I wouldn't ask in IRC if I wasn't in deep shit... | 22:22 |
| noor | BCM43: oh but i still have no idea how to install from the archive i got it downloaded :( | 22:22 |
| SpaceApache | Beats: What sound card do you have? | 22:22 |
| lbci | pbryan: well your right that could be a winner... have you tried removing the conf folder from your home dir yet? | 22:22 |
| BCM43 | noor: dont install from that | 22:23 |
| exco | Nitricacid: e.g. alt+f2 "gksu gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst" | 22:23 |
| Bizzeh | Nitricacid: because it would make alot of money straight away, but has no long term value, it would halt further sales once everyone has one | 22:23 |

| elTigre | My only trouble is with media player | 22:23 |
| elTigre | s | 22:23 |
| noor | BCM43: why not? | 22:23 |
| QAH | BCM43: No, just anytime. Like when the live cd starts up, they allow you to start the live cd, install ubuntu and some other options. When I press up or down on my Keyboard, nothing happens. So I have to wait for the second counter to finish before I can start ubuntu | 22:23 |
| BCM43 | noor: im not quite sure, but i would follow ubottu | 22:23 |
| lbci | pbryan: also apt-get -f install, apt-get autoremove, for any lingering dependencies? | 22:23 |
| xintron | Anyone got time to walk me through how to setup tv-out on my ATI card? | 22:24 |
| BCM43 | QAH: no idea why, you could try the alt cd. | 22:24 |
| Nitricacid | Bizzeh: no your wrong, because you can always IMPROVE a motherboard. makeit faster, have it default to better things. | 22:24 |

| Nitricacid | lbci: thanks | 22:24 |

| marko-_- | heh kyncani like i sayd... it work's now (only in kaffeine but it's enought to watch a damn movie) | 22:24 |
| pbryan | lbci: I wonder if I should try the OpenOffice 3 beta... :) | 22:24 |
| kyncani | noor: because firefox has been packaged to work well in ubuntu. Anything else that the official installation method and you're on your own (basically) | 22:25 |
| EvilDennisR | QAH: Thats probably why you can't move around the boot menu | 22:25 |
| lbci | pbryan: see last msg bout deps? | 22:25 |
| EvilDennisR | QAH: grab a ps2 keyboard and use that to select what you want | 22:25 |
| kyncani | marko-_-: yeah :) | 22:25 |
| pbryan | lbci: Yes, no lingering deps around. | 22:25 |

| \A\lex | I've just bought a Ubuntu server, I was wondering if it's possible to access it from a windows XP PC. As I don't currently have Ubuntu installed. | 22:25 |
| EvilDennisR | QAH: Nope. I'm guessing you have a usb keyboard with all the extra funky media keys on it? | 22:25 |
| Nitricacid | \A\lex: tightVNC | 22:26 |
| Bizzeh | Nitricacid: maybe later then :P.. writing a book at the min | 22:26 |

| scorp123 | Question: How can I enforce how disks are to be ordered by the system? e.g. I want device x to be seen as /dev/sda, device y to be seen as /dev/sdb, device z should be seen as /dev/sdc .... and so on? Any way to do that? | 22:26 |
| KlrSpz | Guys.. I NEED HELP... virtualbox-ose broke with the new kernel.. .how do i fix that? i've uninstalled and reinstalled all of the vbox packages to no avail | 22:26 |
| EvilDennisR | QAH: Your usb keyboard will work once the boot starts, but the grub menu gets retarded for weird usb keyboards like yours sometimes | 22:26 |
| \A\lex | Nitricacid, I want to be able to use remote-control/access though. | 22:26 |
| Bizzeh | \A\lex: i recommend "putty" | 22:26 |
| Nitricacid | \A\lex: SSH | 22:26 |
| QAH | EvilDennisR: Can I download a live cd for the new linux 8.04? | 22:26 |
| kyncani | \A\lex: +1 for ssh (with putty in windows) | 22:26 |
| Nitricacid | putty is godly | 22:26 |
| Nitricacid | putty + winspc | 22:26 |
| \A\lex | As far as I know, you can't like, view the screen though? | 22:27 |
| lbci | pbryan: hrmm did you say yer on 64bit amd? | 22:27 |
| \A\lex | Though Putty. | 22:27 |
| EvilDennisR | QAH: What cd do you have already ? | 22:27 |
| Nitricacid | \A\lex: you bought a SERVER, there is no screen | 22:27 |
| Bizzeh | \A\lex: its a server, there is no screen to view | 22:27 |
| QAH | EvilDennisR: I have the Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon) Live Cd | 22:27 |
| KlrSpz | you can still have xorg running, and forward xorg requests | 22:27 |
| \A\lex | I'll rephase then, view the desktop. | 22:27 |
| Nitricacid | \A\lex: TightVNC | 22:27 |

| Bizzeh | there is no desktop | 22:27 |
| KlrSpz | no, not vnc | 22:27 |
| Bizzeh | its a server | 22:27 |
| pbryan | lbci: Yup, amd64 build. | 22:27 |
| kyncani | what's with "i need a graphical interface" with servers now anyway | 22:27 |
| Nitricacid | kyncani: its 1000x easier to do things? | 22:28 |
| bucky1 | is there a log or something where I can see what happened on boot when it goes thru the init stuff... udev [OK].. etc | 22:28 |
| EvilDennisR | QAH: Theres a possibility that your usb keyboard will work in the menu, but I can't promis anything. 8.04 is the latest version anyways, 7.10 is stale | 22:28 |
| lbci | pbryan: let me start my amd64 box up and run the update, will be a couple mins | 22:28 |
| pbryan | lbci: I see a few more bug reports in Launchpad for this (though no workaround as yet). | 22:28 |
| QAH | EvilDennisR: I downloaded the 7.10 iso and burned it to my own cd myself. Can I do that with 8.04, or do I have to request a cd? | 22:28 |
| kyncani | Nitricacid: yeah, I know, it was meant as a (maybe bad) joke ;) | 22:28 |

| Bizzeh | the reason i do use linux servers and not windows servers is not the price or anything else, its that i dont like configuring via a gui.. its like riding a bike with stabalisers on around a set track, with someone telling you how to do it as you do it | 22:29 |
| QAH | EvilDennisR: Can you please give me the link. I can't seem to find it for the life of me. | 22:29 |
| KlrSpz | Bizzeh: that's a ignorant thing to say | 22:29 |
| Bizzeh | i.e. you can only configure it as much as someone else allows you to configure it | 22:29 |
| KlrSpz | you can completely configure windows servers without ever touching the gui | 22:30 |
| KlrSpz | you just don't know what you're doing to be able to do so | 22:30 |

| Vanny | Hello | 23:40 |
| Vanny | I am looking to install Ubuntu | 23:40 |
| nickrud | home_ yours is not so obvious. what vid res do you have now, and what do you want? | 23:40 |
| unavailable | ksax i did this, i installed ubuntuzilla... then edited the /user/local/bin/ubuntuzilla.py to to read .tar.bz2 instead of tar.gz and to see /usr/lib/firefox/plugins as the plugin path. then ran ubuntuzilla.py -a install -p firefox -g | 23:40 |
| nickrud | abdulla it doesn't say anything about nvidia at all? | 23:40 |
| zanberdo | RabidLockerGnome: putty is freely available for windows platform. Install (if you haven't already) openssh-server on your server and user putty to ssh into the server. | 23:40 |
| Vanny | I only have DVD's and downloaded the ubuntu iso. How do I burn the ubuntu iso to DVD so it'll boot? | 23:41 |
| Duncan | zanberdo, I am using gnome network manager to find the networks. And when I try to connect to the WPA network It thinks that it is a normal unencrypted network. | 23:41 |
| Dillizar | nickrud: i have ati 9200 se but i cant put it on all Hz | 23:41 |
| abdulla | nickrud, wow so thats why, ok how do i set it , any other way?? | 23:41 |
| nickrud | abdulla do sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules , see if they are loaded. What version of ubuntu are you running? | 23:41 |
| knubbe | when typing about: in my firefox, it says im using firefox 1.9, but i have 3.0 - known bug or should i report it? | 23:41 |
| abdulla | nickrud, 8.06 | 23:41 |
| pist0l-fish | hi, has anyone been using apt-get? The repositories that came with my ubuntu distros can't seem to find apache | 23:41 |
| nickrud | Dillizar all hertz? Not sure what you mean. | 23:42 |
| Starnestommy | pist0l-fish: what about apache2? | 23:42 |
| Vanny | Hi, is there a way to burn Ubuntu iso to dvd so it'll boot? | 23:42 |
| Dillizar | sorry nickrud miss read :P | 23:42 |
| zanberdo | Duncan: ok. Sorry, this I can't help you with (I use KNetwork Manager for GUI interface). You might try opening a terminal and from the shell run iwlist scan and see what you get. You may have to provide your interface... | 23:42 |
| pist0l-fish | Starnestommy: ahh :D | 23:42 |
| Seras_Ubuntu | Duncan: What type of Router/Reciever are you using? I believe I read somthing about certain drivers being incompatible. | 23:42 |
| abdulla | nickrud, its downlaoding | 23:42 |
| abdulla | nickrud, does that mean it will work? | 23:42 |
| nickrud | abdulla more and more likely | 23:43 |
| zanberdo | knubbe: be sure you are in fact running the current version of firefox. check the path to the binary and be sure it's pointing to the right firefox. | 23:43 |
| Duncan | The router is a WRT54G running dd-wrt. and my wireless card is an atheros ar5007 with madwifi drivers | 23:43 |
| abdulla | nickrud, what will happen after the download finish | 23:43 |
| RabidLockerGnome | zanberdo, thanks for the help, now i just have to figure out why why my wireless access point isn't being detected | 23:43 |
| nickrud | abdulla you will try the restricted driver step again | 23:43 |
| knubbe | zanberdo: it's confirmed by other people in #ubuntu-se | 23:43 |
| abdulla | nickrud, will i find the friver in the restricted drivers then simply enable it | 23:43 |
| unavailable | ksax if you go that route... when you are editing your py file search for tar.gz and replace with tar.bz2 and then search for "plugin path" and replace the follwoing string with the plugin path | 23:43 |
| zanberdo | RabidLockerGnome: GL! :) | 23:43 |
| Camda_sex_byn | . | 23:43 |
| RabidLockerGnome | thanks :) | 23:43 |
| Seras_Ubuntu | Duncan: Mmmm, Well, I'm running the same router, as a matter of fact. But the reciever is a Linksys as well. Have you had it working before on a different setup? | 23:44 |
| Dillizar | nickrud: 1152*864 75hz but when i put it on higher hz its jaming my monitor and my flash on mozilla or other browser is not working | 23:44 |
| Seras_Ubuntu | Duncan: As in, will it work with no secutity enabled? | 23:44 |
| Duncan | Seras_Ubuntu, I've never had WPA working before | 23:44 |
| zanberdo | knubbe: really? did they confirm that the version number is reporting incorrectly or that you are running the correct binary? | 23:44 |
| Dillizar | nickrud: and btw its saying that i have 15'' monitor | 23:44 |
| Duncan | Seras_Ubuntu, It works with no encryption, It is what i am using right now. | 23:44 |
| knubbe | zanberdo: that it displays the wrong text when using "about:", but if you go via help>about it says 3.0 | 23:45 |
| nickrud | ok, you may need to fill in the horizontal and vertical refresh for your monitor in xorg.conf. Do you know the values? | 23:45 |
| cb__ | Hey here is my lsmod i have system sounds working but mp3 and avi sound freezes up and stops http://paste.ubuntu.com/21260/ | 23:45 |
| Dillizar | nickrud: when i am at the monitor resolution settings its showing that i have a 15" Philips | 23:45 |
| BobSapp | say, anyone got experience using xmove with X connections forwarded over ssh connections? | 23:45 |
| Dillizar | nickrud: thats what you said the last time :D and i dunno | 23:45 |
| knubbe | zanberdo: that it's reporting incorrectly to answer your question :-) | 23:45 |
| Seras_Ubuntu | Duncan: Which security setting are you using for your router? WPA Personal, or WPA2? Or have you tried multiple? | 23:45 |
| zanberdo | knubbe: ok, so what was the questiont then again? If it's a known issue, someone else has likely reported it, but you can certainly look to see if they have an if not report it. | 23:46 |
| Duncan | I've tried WPA and WPA2 | 23:46 |
| nickrud | Dillizar but you don't agree? Then you need to identify the monitor by hand, look for the model number on the back. Are you the guy we found the specs by using the fcc id? | 23:46 |
| gordonjcp | Duncan: can you get it to work with WEP? | 23:46 |
| ginajohn | hi can u give me that guide for installing ati-driver-installer-8-5-x86.x86_64.run | 23:46 |
| ginajohn | again please | 23:46 |
| Duncan | gordonjcp, I havent tried wep | 23:46 |
| gordonjcp | Duncan: if I'm setting up "unknown" wifi stuff, I usually try no encryption, then WEP, then WPA | 23:46 |
| Dillizar | no nickrud but i am sure that is a 17" | 23:46 |
| Seras_Ubuntu | Duncan: TKIP? (I'm really just running you through the settings I have working on my fresh install of Ubuntu.) | 23:47 |
| Dillizar | :D | 23:47 |
| knubbe | zanberdo: if you're using the latest firefox, type "about:" in the location bar and it should display an image and say say firefox 3.0 (i suppose), but it says 1.9 | 23:47 |
| Duncan | Seras_Ubuntu, Yeah, it was tkip | 23:47 |
| Syco54645 | hello i enabled drive sharing in linux via gnome so that i could share with a windows computer. how do i connect to this share with windows? i am having some trouble here. | 23:47 |
| Duncan | gordonjcp, I will try wep now | 23:47 |
| nickrud | Dillizar look on the back, google the info there until you're sure you have the right monitor, then search for the vertical and horizontal refresh rates (specs) | 23:47 |
| gordonjcp | Duncan: it's easier to track down weirdass broken things with no encryption at all, rather than wondering if you've got the magic incantations right | 23:47 |
| cb__ | Hey here is my lsmod i have system sounds working but mp3 and avi sound freezes up and stops http://paste.ubuntu.com/21260/ | 23:47 |
| knubbe | zanberdo: gotto run, will check later if its reported already, i just thought i should check here first :-) | 23:47 |
| cb__ | after a few seconds | 23:48 |
| Dillizar | nickrud: its not 107E6 its 107e66 thats what on the back | 23:48 |
| zanberdo | knubbe: I'm not running 3.0. Not all the extention I need are available with it yet. However, I beleive you. I'm just suggesting that you are likely not the only one to notice and there may already be a bug up, but you should check it and if not, add one.. | 23:48 |
| Duncan_ | Okay, I'm on my other computer now | 23:48 |
| Seras_Ubuntu | Duncan: Well, aside from your reciever, all your settings are mirroring mine. So unless it's some other wierdass thing I can't think of. I'd look at your reciever's drivers/settings. | 23:48 |
| ginajohn | anyone? | 23:48 |
| knubbe | zanberdo: ok! thanks for your assistance. happy midsummer | 23:48 |
| Duncan_ | I'm going to see if WEP works right now, | 23:48 |
| nickrud | Dillizar X has gotten the right specs for that monitor, http://www.superwarehouse.com/Philips_107E66_Black_17_CRT_Monitor/107E66_27/ps/431078 | 23:50 |
| gordonjcp | Duncan_: WEP isn't very good, compared to WPA | 23:50 |
| afallenhope | Anyone know if I can create a symlink from /FTP to /var/ftp? | 23:50 |
| gordonjcp | Duncan_: you're talking minutes rather than several hours to crack ;-) | 23:50 |
| zanberdo | afallenhope: not to be a smartass, but have you tried? :) | 23:50 |
| gordonjcp | Duncan_: otoh there's a *lot* less to go wrong | 23:50 |
| Dillizar | nickrud: 30 - 60 KHz horizontal scan and 50 - 75 KHz vertical refres | 23:50 |
| Duncan_ | yeah, that is my motivation for using WPA | 23:51 |
| ginajohn | can any one giv me the link for the install guide for ati-driver-installer-8-5-x86.x86_64.run | 23:51 |
| ginajohn | please? | 23:51 |
| Duncan_ | gordonjcp, WEP does work. | 23:51 |
| afallenhope | zanberdo: yes... and I was unable to. hence the reason why I came here for help. smartass. | 23:51 |
| nickrud | Ranges: V min: 50 V max: 160 Hz, H min: 30 H max: 71 kHz, PixClock max 120 MHz Dillizar from the log file. Same as the monitor. ThInKiNg | 23:51 |
| gordonjcp | Duncan_: ok, so you can connect up and use wifi with WEP? | 23:51 |
| Starnestommy | ginajohn: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI | 23:51 |
| gordonjcp | Duncan_: that narrows it down to your WPA config | 23:51 |
| Duncan_ | gordonjcp, Yes | 23:51 |
| Hermanon | hi, i ran a configuration for a program but it told me : checking for X... configure: error: Can't find X includes. Please check your installation and add the correct paths! | 23:52 |
| ginajohn | thank u :) | 23:52 |
| zanberdo | afallenhope: well, your question didn't suggest that you'd tried and had a problem, nor did it describe with any detail what the problem was, so I just wanted to be sure you'd actually tried. | 23:52 |
| Starnestommy | Hermanon: install libx11-dev | 23:52 |
| jrib | Hermanon: what are you compiling? | 23:52 |
| [[thufir]] | how do I determine which applications are using the network? The system monitor shows heavy network usage and I would like to know more. | 23:52 |
| Dillizar | nickrud: so there is not a problem ? | 23:52 |
| Duncan_ | gordonjcp, I am going to try WPA2 now | 23:52 |
| afallenhope | zanberdo: clearly if 'm asking ... it's because I've tried. | 23:52 |
| Pord | hi there i have my laptop connected to the internet on my wlan and have my main pc connected to my laptop...... how can i get it so it will share the internet connection from my laptop to my main pc? | 23:52 |
| nickrud | Dillizar you should be able to go to 1280x1024 by the log ... | 23:52 |
| Dillizar | nickrud: then why when i am at the monitor resolution settings its showing that i have a 15" Philips | 23:52 |
| zanberdo | afallenhope: you haven't been in this channel long if you are going to make that assumption. | 23:53 |
| gordonjcp | afallenhope: you still haven't really described the problem | 23:53 |
| nickrud | Dillizar a bug in some database. It's still got the right info from the monitor | 23:53 |
| Hermanon | jrib : kaptain | 23:53 |
| gordonjcp | afallenhope: the answer to your original question is "yes, of course" | 23:53 |
| Dillizar | nickrud: but on1280 i have only 60hz | 23:53 |
| afallenhope | gordonjcp: i want to change the mount point of the /FTP to /var/ftp | 23:53 |
| brimestone | guys, how do i install ipsec for ubuntu? | 23:53 |
| nickrud | Dillizar gemme a sec! | 23:53 |
| greya | Hi! I'm compiling here Lingvo dictionaries for Stardict with a patched dslcomp - and I get an error message when I try to compile all the "general" dictionaries (the abbreviation dicts are compiling very well)- Did anyone get such an error??? Thanks! | 23:53 |
| ginajohn | sorry its the wrong link | 23:54 |
| Dillizar | and what bout my brain nickrud:D | 23:54 |
| m_newton | <brimestone> sudo apt-get install ipsec | 23:54 |
| m_newton | i think | 23:54 |
| jrib | !info kaptain | Hermanon | 23:54 |
| ubottu | hermanon: kaptain (source: kaptain): Graphical front-end for command line programs. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:0.71-1.5 (hardy), package size 421 kB, installed size 724 kB | 23:54 |
| ginajohn | im tryin to install ati-driver-installer-8-5-x86.x86_64.run | 23:54 |
| Starnestommy | greya: what was the error message? | 23:54 |
| afallenhope | gordonjcp: /FTP is mounted to /dev/sdb1 and I want to sylink the /FTP folder to /var/ftp | 23:54 |
| jrib | Hermanon: kaptain is in the repositories, you shouldn't be compiling it | 23:54 |
| m_newton | brimestone, you migt have to bg ipsec | 23:54 |
| m_newton | brimestone, you migt have to bd ipsec | 23:55 |
| brimestone | yeah, but after that... i try to use an ipsec protocol and i get this "error: Unable to find "ipsec (FreeS/WAN)" at "/usr/sbin/ipsec"!" | 23:55 |
| m_newton | oh wait | 23:55 |
| greya | Starnestommy: "Language 'English' is not supported" - that's the error | 23:55 |
| Duncan_ | gordonjcp, Once i switched the encryption to WPA2 i can no longer see the network with "iwlist scan" | 23:55 |
| m_newton | sudo apt-get build-dep | 23:55 |
| ginajohn | i had it given to me a while ago but i had to reboot | 23:55 |
| gordonjcp | Duncan_: maybe your card doesn't support it | 23:55 |
| Hermanon | jrib : thank u | 23:55 |
| nickrud | Dillizar according to the specs of that monitor, on the web page I gave you the max at 1280x1024 is 60hz. Check the web page, make sure it's the same monitor | 23:55 |
| === macgyverdgi is now known as macgyver | ||
| gordonjcp | afallenhope: why not just change where /dev/sdb1 is mounted? | 23:56 |
| Duncan_ | gordonjcp, The card is new, I can't imagine that it wouldn't support WPA2 | 23:56 |
| === macgyver is now known as mac-laptop | ||
| gordonjcp | Duncan_: hm, dunno | 23:56 |
| Dillizar | its the same nickrud but when is on higher Hz mt flash isnt working Ex youtube | 23:56 |
| gordonjcp | Duncan_: I've never had a lot of luck with WPA, except when it comes to brute-forcing keys ;-) | 23:57 |
| nickrud | Dillizar when you say higher hz, what hz? | 23:57 |
| Duncan_ | gordonjcp, lol :P | 23:57 |
| === CuriousCat_ is now known as CuriousCat | ||
| Jack_Sparrow | Duncan_ just because a card is new does not mean the linux version of the drivers will support that | 23:57 |
| brimestone | why is ipsec not on my sbin | 23:57 |
| Dillizar | btw nickrud ive tryed now 1280 and i cant the pic is not on the whole display | 23:57 |
| carlisle | Is there a WIFI tool in ubuntu to see what networks are accessible and whether one is connected or not? | 23:57 |
| afallenhope | gordonjcp: because I want it to /FTP. lol | 23:58 |
| nickrud | Dillizar try using the resize buttons on the monitor | 23:58 |
| r-phael | Can someone please help? My upper and lower panel is gone and I cannot open any programs or anything! | 23:58 |
| Dillizar | 75.80 nickrud | 23:58 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !resetpanels | 23:58 |
| ubottu | To reset the panel to defaults, type this in a !terminal: « gconftool --recursive-unset /apps/panel && killall gnome-panel » | 23:58 |
| Duncan_ | Jack_Sparrow, I am using madwifi drivers, WPA is supported by it. | 23:58 |
| gribouille | hey guys, are you going to solve the firefox+google toolbar issue ? | 23:58 |
| Dillizar | nickrud: its not liek that the other parts are like jam picture | 23:58 |
| Dombre | Is there a bash command that displays the version of linux that is currently running? | 23:58 |
| Dillizar | nickrud: just mixer of colors | 23:58 |
| Starnestommy | Dombre: uname -r | 23:58 |
| r-phael | What is the command to open the default terminal? | 23:59 |
| nickrud | Dillizar then you are overdriving the monitor. the monitor is the prblem there | 23:59 |
| Starnestommy | r-phael: gnome-terminal | 23:59 |
| === lzy--_ is now known as lzy | ||
| r-phael | Starnestommy: Thanks | 23:59 |
| afallenhope | gordonjcp: it's easier this way. if I mount /dev/sdb1 to /FTP and create a symlink/hardlink from /FTP to /var/www. Would i have to chown the /var/ftp? | 23:59 |
| nickrud | Dombre or lsb_release -a for ubuntu version info | 23:59 |
| gribouille | hey guys, are you going to solve the firefox+google toolbar issue ? | 23:59 |
| _N0W4Y0UT_ | http://www.pennergame.de/change_please/7969777/ | 23:59 |
