| macd | Xeon, did you try clicking the add button | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| Xeon | Yeah. | 00:00 |
| WalloO | Xeon, the layout is canadian/canadian | 00:00 |
| murlidhar | thehurley, what exactly do u want? | 00:00 |
| macd | Xeon, I see Canada/French Canada/Frech(classic) as well as some others that are too long to ttype ;) | 00:01 |
| Xeon | WalloO: Well I dont see that | 00:01 |
| Oney | So I finally did it. | 00:01 |
| Xeon | macd: Really?! What desktop do you use? | 00:01 |
| Oney | After 1.5 years of debating, I decided to install Ubuntu on my desktop PC. | 00:01 |
| Xeon | By desktop I mean gnome kde etc | 00:01 |
| macd | Xeon, click add, then the layout dropdown has Canada , right? | 00:01 |
| DoubleD | Oney: which version ? | 00:02 |
| Xeon | Yeah, nothing about those | 00:02 |
| WalloO | Xeon, for keytbord layout at the top of the canadian list, there is only Canadian, and this is the layout for common canadian keyboard | 00:02 |
| Xeon | I'll list the, | 00:02 |
| thehurley | ok, i have windows on hd0,0 and ubuntu on hd0,5 - ubuntu is booting by default, but i need windows to boot by default (sorry I use windows for work every day) | 00:02 |
| macd | Xeon, if I wasnt on gnome, I couldnt have told you howto open the Keyboard dialog ;P | 00:02 |
| Colin1 | Geez.. ubuntu is wicked awesome. I finally got it to look great... and now I can't get enough of it. xD | 00:02 |
| Oney | Anyone in here use XChat? | 00:02 |
| Blaqlight | yeah my version of quickbooks manufacturing and wholesale does not work in Wine. the install just dies. | 00:03 |
| Sidgrani_ | Is there a hardware-detection in ubuntu and how do i start it? My wlan-device is gone. | 00:03 |
| CatCheeto | Does anyone have a guide for setting up apache for a complete newb? | 00:03 |
| Xeon | macd: Oh right. Wallo0 the top one is Default which I guess is the equivalent. That one is perfect but for the at sign that doesnt work. What version of ubuntu are you guys on? | 00:03 |
| murlidhar | thehurley, sudo apt-get install startup-manager | 00:03 |
| thehurley | murlidhar thank you | 00:03 |
| Blaqlight | Oney, Im using it now | 00:03 |
| wirelessdreamer | can anyone here get perl module cpan installs to work in 8.04? even when I add 'dontload_hash' => {"Net::FTP" => 1, "LWP" =>1 }, to Config.pm i can't disable lwp and cpan hangs | 00:03 |
| Oney | Blaqlight: how do I add more servers to auto join and stuff? | 00:03 |
| murlidhar | wols_, u there? | 00:03 |
| Oney | I use XChat in Windows but I can't figure it out on here. =P | 00:03 |
| macd | Xeon, you prolly need to install the locales for your region then, Im reading install notes from the livecd, it states if you dont select the proper keyboard option at install, you can manually change it later by installing the locales package | 00:03 |
| WalloO | Xeon, altCar+2 doesn't work? | 00:04 |
| Xeon | macd: I got default, french dvorak, french legacy, multilingual part 1 2 and secwepemtsim | 00:04 |
| m_newton | any one know a realy good font site? | 00:04 |
| Scunizi | Oney: did you load xchat or xchat-gnome? | 00:04 |
| Oney | XChat-gnome =[ | 00:04 |
| macd | Xeon, then whats the problem, you said Canada/French youve got it right in front of you. | 00:04 |
| WalloO | Xeon, moi j'ai ubuntu 8.04, mais avec les précédentes, c'étit pareil | 00:04 |
| Blaqlight | Oney, goto Network then it should all be in there. | 00:04 |
| Xeon | macd: Do you know how to install those local packages? | 00:04 |
| Scunizi | Oney: uninstall that and install xchat.. both are in synaptic.. xchat has more features (I think) and is probably a more familure interface. | 00:05 |
| murlidhar | Oney, that's the problem . install xchat not xchat-gnome | 00:05 |
| aSmig | how do I get libglade-perl in Hardy? seems to not be in universe any more | 00:05 |
| macd | Xeon, you already listed the right ones, you dont need to isntall anything | 00:05 |
| Xeon | Wallo0, I got no altcar keys and what did you do then? | 00:05 |
| DoubleD | 8.04 sucks, in my opinion | 00:05 |
| Xeon | macd: French dvorak is dvorak, and french legacy isnt the same as french canadian :P | 00:05 |
| AngryElf | is there some app I can use to transfer files to my new sony walkman phone? | 00:05 |
| murlidhar | DoubleD, it is ok in my opinion | 00:05 |
| aSmig | I've been having a number of issues with 8.04 | 00:05 |
| macd | DoubleD, good thing this is the support channel and not offtopic so opinions arent really needed here ;) #ubuntu-offtopic please :) | 00:05 |
| macd | Xeon, is default Canada french ? | 00:06 |
| Xeon | Those arent the one im looking for macd. Basically I want french accents, I want shift + 2 to produce " and alt ctrl 2 to produce at | 00:06 |
| WalloO | Xeon, if you don't have a altCar just at the right of your space bar, this is not a canadian keyboard. Is it a standard candian french keyboard? | 00:06 |
| Xeon | Its supposed to be, but my alt ctrl 2 wont work | 00:06 |
| DoubleD | its ontopic :p. my network chipset card is the most common chipset there is, and its not working under 8.04 | 00:06 |
| * macd thinks Wallo0 can help you better Xeon | 00:06 | |
| DoubleD | but it was working in 7.10. so someone changed something, for the worse. | 00:06 |
| WalloO | Xeon, it'S not alt+ctrl+2 it'S altCar+2 | 00:06 |
| macd | DoubleD, topic would be howto fix your issue, not commenting on the current state of ubuntu. | 00:07 |
| Xeon | Wallo0, I have both a logitech s510 and a "microsoft basic keyboard" and under windows im used to do alt ctrl 2 to make an at sign... | 00:07 |
| macd | DoubleD, what chipset do you have (paste line from lspci) | 00:07 |
| Xeon | macd: thanks for the help. | 00:07 |
| eago | whats a nice vnc that doesn't require login? | 00:07 |
| DoubleD | macd: http://paste.ubuntu.com/22459/ | 00:07 |

| Xeon | Wallo0: Ouin... Oh well, im gonna try reinstalling ubuntu and see what I can do. Thanks for the help. You too macd. | 00:10 |
| macd | DoubleD, I dont see an issue there other than your nic isnt aquiring an address, does your network use static or dhcp? | 00:10 |
| Oney | Okay I did that murlidhar | 00:10 |
| Blaqlight | Oney, type sudo aptitude install xchat | 00:10 |
| eago | Blaqlight : synergy or vnc? | 00:10 |
| Blaqlight | eago, both work, | 00:10 |

| notapplicable | Thanks Murlidhar :D | 00:13 |
| Blaqlight | notapplicable, so it would be sudo and the first created user's password | 00:14 |
| macd | DoubleD, yes, and nothing there indicates an issue with your driver, the message your seeing in dmesg, was discussed in a kernel mailing list thread, and is also filed as a bug in Launchpad (but it is not) | 00:14 |

That card is 100% supported and dmesg indicates it is working 100%, it just doesnt have an IP assigned to it, YOU need to configure it as either DHCP or static IP, depending on your network configuration | 00:20 |

| Oney | i did sudo aptitude in term | 00:32 |
| slacker__ | wildman, 1.7 ghz cpu, 512 ram, geforce2 400 video card with 64mb ram on it | 00:32 |
| macd | wildman, ohhh, really odd | 00:32 |
| Blaqlight | Oney, aSmig is correct. | 00:32 |
| macd | wildman, I just assumed like everyone else who comes here, you were doing the opposite ;) | 00:33 |
| slacker__ | wildman, my windows xp is very fast, and i tried slackware KDE, and it was fast too | 00:33 |
| W4z | is there a way to connect to wireless via command line? I looked for a howto, but i couldnt find one | 00:33 |
| wildman | macd, I've mapped a drive letter to a Samba share, if I use the Mandriva server, I get no password prompt after a reboot, it just opens the share (expected behaviour). If I do the same map thing with the Ubuntu server, it does ask for pass after reboot when trying to open the share | 00:33 |

| |Juan| | I have a main user whos session I keep always open. Then I have a second user for anyone else who wants to use the computer. Since I upgraded to Hardy, whenever the second user logs in after my user's session is locked, the second user automatically leaves its session, goes to the gdm screen, re-authenticates and continues with its session while mine is killed. Any help? | 00:34 |
| wildman | slacker__, did you try disabling 3D desktop effects? | 00:34 |
| spoonman | slacker__, ubuntu hardy by default has quite a few appearance bells and whistles enabled by default | 00:34 |
| macd | wildman, both mandriva and ubuntu both asked for a password once ? | 00:34 |
| Oney | BlakStone, ahead of u | 00:34 |
| thesaint4444 | hoban: ok, got it, thanks.... | 00:34 |
| Blaqlight | murlidhar, both have their individual merits. | 00:34 |
| slacker__ | wildman, should that be it? | 00:34 |
| wildman | macd, yes, only when mapping the share, which is OK because it's set that way | 00:34 |
| Oney | Blaqlight, ** | 00:34 |
| hoban | thesaint4444: np | 00:34 |
| Oney | Damn autocomplete. =P | 00:34 |
| wildman | slacker__, maybe... cuz with nvidia cards you need to enable the proprietary driver for good performance... | 00:34 |
| macd | wildman, yeah, its odd that it continues to ask, and I've only seen that when the guest level access isnt configured | 00:35 |
| wildman | macd, what do you mean with guest level access? this: map to guest = bad user ? | 00:35 |
| Blaqlight | frankly murlidhar I haven't used or heard of freevo. | 00:35 |
| wildman | slacker__, and I don't remember if 3D is enabled with non-proprietary driver for nvidia cards | 00:36 |
| LetsGo67 | My copy protected DVDs aren't playing! | 00:36 |
| aSmig | Oney, a couple other handy commands when looking for cool software, `apt-cache search TV record play` and if something in the list is interesting but you want more info, apt-cache show mythtv | 00:36 |

| wildman | slacker__, really strange... | 00:37 |
| murlidhar | Blaqlight, what's that ? | 00:37 |
| aSmig | Oney, I would agree with that. | 00:37 |

| wildman | macd, BTW, the mount windows shares permanently page is for Linux, now I understand that you thought I was trying to mount shares from Linux ;) | 00:38 |
| macd | wildman, I see a few config directives that might lead ubuntu to not behave as expected "security = user" should be = share, as well as uncommenting the line "guest account = nobody" | 00:39 |
| Blaqlight | aSmig, that show funtion is tons more handy than looking for that info on the internet | 00:39 |
| LetsGo67 | elefante! | 00:39 |
| wildman | macd, I do have security = share | 00:39 |
| wildman | macd, I'll add the 'guest account = nobody' one, which I don't have | 00:39 |
| macd | wildman, also to your specific shares | 00:39 |
| wildman | macd, both? or the security = share one only? | 00:40 |

| macd | wildman, in both, then on the individual configured shares, you should have what I posted above | 00:41 |
| wildman | macd, public = no, actually... they are not public | 00:41 |
| aSmig | vypadkovyy, I use fluxbox... what command are you using? | 00:41 |
| macd | wildman, you can change that to suit your own needs | 00:41 |

| yoyoned | vypadkovyy: I don't know, but if you can't get any help here, try #fluxbox channel | 00:41 |

| arthur | question how do i or can i convert jpg pictures to avi or mpeg.... | 00:42 |

| === Mr is now known as Guest70783 | ||
| spoonman | np | 00:45 |
| vypadkovyy | aSmig, I know the command isn't bad, because I've copy/pasted it into a terminal. | 00:45 |
| aSmig | vypadkovyy, hmm, sounds like you are on the right track.. there must be something else getting started later that is reseting the background color | 00:45 |
| arthur | question how do i or can i convert jpg pictures to avi or mpeg.... | 00:45 |
| vypadkovyy | aSmig, the only things that are started later are conky and fluxbox | 00:45 |
| vypadkovyy | I've tried moving the command to after fluxbox, and it still happens | 00:45 |
| Scunizi | arthur: a static jpg? | 00:45 |
| vypadkovyy | aSmig, in fact... i actually did it twice. once before and once after. same result | 00:46 |
| arthur | like the kind u take with a camera... i aint sure what u mean by static | 00:46 |
| oldbluebox | Hello. | 00:46 |
| oldbluebox | Can someone help me with a problem i'm having with ubuntu? | 00:46 |
| vypadkovyy | oldbluebox, just ask :) | 00:47 |
| aSmig | vypadkovyy, anything that comes after the line starting with exec (probably exec /usr/bin/fluxbox) gets ignored because the shell is giving process control over to a different application (fluxbox) | 00:47 |
| oldbluebox | ok cool. | 00:47 |
| oldbluebox | Well I just installed it, and everything worked fine, I installed all the updates. | 00:47 |
| oldbluebox | I went to change the display settings from basic to moderate (the second option) | 00:47 |
| vypadkovyy | aSmig, I figured that, but then why doesn't it work if I have it before the command? | 00:47 |
| thesaint4444 | rootyrooty: 'fdisk -l' | 00:47 |
| oldbluebox | it prompted me to reboot, and when I did, it loads up fine, but the screen is blank. | 00:48 |
| Scunizi | arthur: well that would be static if it's not a motion picture.. install imagemagick (in synaptic)... then to convert go to the terminal and type "convert inputfilename.jpg outputfilename.type".. although I don't think you can convert a jpg to avi or mgeg.. those are video extentions.. | 00:48 |
| Da1 | is it possible to setup an ubuntu box as a switch? i know with routed you can set it up with nat and whatnot, but i don't need nor want nat, would routed still be the way to go? | 00:48 |

| rootyrooty | thesaint4444 Thanks! | 00:48 |
| oldbluebox | So I just don't know how to make the screen appear, or to just revert it back to it's original settings. | 00:48 |
| wildman | arthur, maybe what you need is a video editing program that allows you to do a photo 'show' | 00:49 |
| thesaint4444 | rootyrooty: np.. | 00:49 |
| vypadkovyy | aSmig, the commands in order are: fbsetbg -f ~/Pictures/linux-wallpaper_167.jpg , conky & , exec /usr/bin/fluxbox | 00:49 |
| aSmig | vypadkovyy, even after fluxbox starts, more stuff gets run, and something is setting your background color. You might try and work around it by making a script that will set your background image after a 5 second delay or something | 00:49 |
| malkav | dal so you want to waste an entire pc on something you can buy at the store for 10 bucks? | 00:49 |
| genii | vl_: Because you don't want ppl to arbitrarily be able to write to system binaries in the system binary directory (/bin) | 00:49 |
| vypadkovyy | aSmig, that might work :) you think i might be able to put fbsetbg --pause 5 in it? | 00:49 |
| Scunizi | wildman: I'd sure like to know what's available in that venue for linux.. I"ve been looking and haven't found anything that will combine jpg or png or giv and avi,mpg etc. | 00:50 |

| malkav | just buy a switch, good lord | 00:50 |
| wildman | Scunizi, I prefer photos ;) | 00:50 |
| Scunizi | wildman: cinelerra is a little much.. didn't now kino would combine jpg and video stuff into one file.. | 00:51 |

| cyphase | vypadkovyy: it's not that important :). i don't want to have to convert all the app icons | 01:06 |

| derenrich | So I uninstalled avant but now I no longer have the program switching bar, how do I get that back? | 01:07 |
| genii | !pastebin | genuser | 01:07 |
| ubottu | genuser: 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) | 01:07 |
| IndyGunFreak | derenrich: program switching bar? | 01:08 |
| genuser | yoyoned: ok after starting gdm manually and kill it a few times, one of these seems to start up. KDE is in the process of starting.... | 01:09 |
| genii | genuser: Apologies, I see earlier now you know of pastebin. The user told you to paste (not to pastebin) so wanted to pre-epmt a flood. | 01:09 |
| genii | *pre-empt | 01:09 |
| derenrich | IndyGunFreak: yeah, as in the bar at the bottom of the screen which lists open programs and lets me switch between them | 01:09 |
| genuser | genii: no worries. :) | 01:09 |
| Colin1 | Eek.. I was talking to people on msn | 01:09 |
| c0mrade | hi | 01:09 |
| Colin1 | Wonder if anyone answered me. | 01:09 |
| genuser | yoyoned: will paste the file anyway once this thing starts. :) running it in qemu with kqemu but this is very slow. | 01:09 |
| c0mrade | I'd like to adduser and password all in same line? any hints? | 01:09 |
| Colin1 | How do I run two songs at the same time? Like one from youtube and one from uh.. | 01:10 |
| Colin1 | Like.. a media player. | 01:10 |
| IndyGunFreak | derenrich: oh, ok.. well, you can do one of two things.. if you like having two panels, right click your top panel, click new panel, then on the new panel, right click/add to panel, and add window list | 01:10 |
| IndyGunFreak | derenrich: if you like having everything on one panel, just right click your panel and add "window selector" which puts all open windows, on a button, you hit the button, and choose the window you want | 01:10 |
| derenrich | IndyGunFreak: ah that's better, but now it's all right centered... | 01:11 |
| YoLeisure | Colin1 I can do this and i installed flash only | 01:11 |
| genuser | Colin1: if you use alsa it should share hw with different apps. You should be able to play different sounds | 01:11 |
| IndyGunFreak | derenrich: its probably where you drug the icon to... if you remove it, then drag it all the way to the left, it'll probably be where you want it. | 01:12 |
| Scunizi | Colin1: try "killall pulseaudio" and see if that makes both streams function at the same time. | 01:12 |
| derenrich | IndyGunFreak: yeah I've got it now | 01:12 |
| derenrich | thanks | 01:12 |

| IndyGunFreak | Kidfork: beryl doesn't exist anymore, its compiz-fusion | 01:13 |
| Scunizi | Kidfork: I don't know about anyone else.. but I had nothing but issues with emerald. | 01:14 |
| vypadkovyy | emerald still exists tho | 01:14 |
| === cpk1_ is now known as cpk1 | ||
| IndyGunFreak | vypadkovyy: yes it does, but its got nothing to do w/ beryl, never did actually | 01:14 |
| genuser | I use compiz. You should be ok with restarting X now and then.... | 01:14 |
| vypadkovyy | to install a theme in emerald, download the tarball to a location, then open the emerald theme manager and select import, then choose the theme you want | 01:14 |
| genuser | otherwise you'll be upset. | 01:14 |
| LetsGo67 | narothepharoh: turn off your computer open your computer plug inn all cables power and alsa/scsi/dee/we and turn it on onplug it or else it will shock you | 01:14 |
| Blaqlight | < is busy looking at emerald themes now. | 01:14 |
| vypadkovyy | IndyGunFreak, i never disputed that :) emerald is just a window decorator | 01:14 |
| vypadkovyy | IndyGunFreak, you could easily decorate beryl or compiz with metacity or kwin or anything else :) | 01:15 |
| narothepharoh | LetsGo67: everything is plugged in I can burn cds and dvds fine just not play them? | 01:15 |
| LetsGo67 | narothepharoh: sound-juicer? | 01:16 |

| IndyGunFreak | LetsGo67: then you've not installed it properly | 01:27 |
| kelvin | well, I have installed the latest version of ubuntu and wifi don't work out the box, i tried some tutorial on Internet without luck... | 01:27 |
| gardenhose | so maybe it installed it by default | 01:27 |

| LetsGo67 | Kelvin: desktop or laptop? | 01:29 |
| kelvin | LetsGo67: laptop | 01:30 |

| amenado | iandev-> i did a quick check...you port 80 is not showing up....so its blocked by you or by your ISP | 01:46 |
| georgy28 | iandev a moment please | 01:46 |
| darkreaction | ok i think i got the lines to work | 01:47 |
| iandev | amenado: in server /etc/hosts file waht should i have? have only 127.0.0.1. Is it correct? | 01:48 |
| georgy28 | iandev, V2.05 | 01:48 |
| LetsGo67 | IndyGunFreak: even my sister can't read dvd with vlc | 01:48 |
| IndyGunFreak | LetsGo67: then she hasn't installed DVD support right either.. | 01:48 |
| IndyGunFreak | i don't know what more i can tell you, i've told you what to do, and you keep asking the same question | 01:48 |
| iandev | georgy: mine is V3.20 | 01:48 |
| bazhang | LetsGo67, you got the solution, please follow it. | 01:48 |
| stiv2k | Hello where can I get a default /etc/passwd file? Mine got screwed up. | 01:48 |
| IndyGunFreak | LetsGo67: if two people do the wrong thing, then its not gonna work for either of them. | 01:48 |
| SkinnYPup | Anyone familiar with stella? Does the sound work ? | 01:49 |
| amenado | iandev-> you use /etc/hosts to resolve an outside address..as a minimum yes you need 127.0.0.1 | 01:49 |
| LetsGo67 | IndyGunFreak: libdvdread: Can't allocate memory for file read! | 01:49 |
| yoyone1 | stiv2k: there isn't one | 01:49 |
| stiv2k | yoyone1: what do I do now? | 01:49 |
| LetsGo67 | IndyGunFreak: 3GB RAM | 01:49 |
| yoyone1 | what's wrong | 01:49 |
| IndyGunFreak | LetsGo67: unless you're gonna listen, don't bother me anymore... i've told you what to do, yet you keep telling me your errors, your error is pounding on your keyboard | 01:49 |
| bazhang | kelvin, in your systems administration there is an entry called windows wireless drivers? or is this inside another item | 01:49 |
| stiv2k | yoyone1: my /etc/passwd file got erased when I tried to add a new user via the GNOME users and groups setting. | 01:49 |
| iandev | amendo: shouldnt i have something like 192.168.0.50? | 01:50 |
| georgy28 | iandev : so it have to work then ;) | 01:50 |
| LetsGo67 | IndyGunFreak: can you repeat please? | 01:50 |
| SkinnYPup | jeez | 01:50 |
| lolcatz | how do you mount ext3 as read and write in hardy ( need example line of codes for /etc/fstab ) thank you very much | 01:50 |
| kelvin | bazhang: you are right | 01:50 |
| iandev | georgy28: it seems so... ;) | 01:50 |
| IndyGunFreak | !medibuntu | LetsGo67 go here, and follow the instructions to add the medibuntu repo, then install libdvdcss2, following the instructions | 01:50 |
| ubottu | LetsGo67 go here, and follow the instructions to add the medibuntu repo, then install libdvdcss2, following the instructions: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 01:50 |
| yoyone1 | stiv2k: try opening terminal and typing passwd | 01:50 |
| amenado | iandev-> that could be an additional entry...as i have said minimum is 127.0.0.1 | 01:50 |
| darkreaction | aSmig, I got it mounted | 01:50 |
| bazhang | LetsGo67, install libdvdcss2 from medibuntu, then the dvd will play; stop repeating the same question | 01:50 |
| shift_ | So far, I've gotta say... Really NOT impressed by Hardy Heron. No xmms. Expert installer doesn't allow package selection. sources.list is empty by default after a barebones install. And there's no BitchX! | 01:50 |
| aSmig | darkreaction, cool, do an ls /media/techsupport to make sure you have the etc, root, home and all that good stuff | 01:51 |
| bazhang | kelvin, it is inside another item, or there is an item by that name (A or B<---two choices here) | 01:51 |
| amenado | shift_-> barebones install? which method you used to do the install? | 01:51 |
| stiv2k | yoyone1: I can still log in but I cant start X or use sudo or do anything | 01:51 |
| onthefence928 | am i the only one that finds it ironic when a linux user complains about not getting everything spoon-fed? | 01:51 |
| QUILz | shift_: The current version of BitchX has security problems. I'm not surprised it was taken out | 01:52 |
| yoyone1 | stiv2k: how do you log in | 01:52 |
| shift_ | amenado: Boot off AMD64CD, F6, Expert Install, go through install process normally, but skip "select and install packages" | 01:52 |
| kelvin | bazhang: B | 01:52 |
| lolcatz | how do you mount ext3 as read and write in hardy ( need example line of codes for /etc/fstab ) thank you very much | 01:52 |
| darkreaction | aSmig, ya all good | 01:52 |
| SkinnYPup | fence, no it is ironic | 01:52 |
| stiv2k | yoyone1: im forced to use the console right now | 01:52 |
| aSmig | darkreaction, good, now chroot /media/techsupport | 01:52 |
| shift_ | QUILz: I'd not heard of this. Got a link? | 01:52 |
| stiv2k | yoyone1: the root password got erased | 01:52 |
| iandev | amenado: ill try to change port to 8080 | 01:52 |
| stiv2k | yoyone1: or something | 01:52 |
| georgy28 | fence : you are not the only one :) | 01:52 |
| bazhang | kelvin, then it must be ubuntu ultimate or linux mint or other 'ubuntu-based' distro; my own gnome has no such entry. | 01:53 |
| amenado | shift_-> Expert install meant you know what you are doing , you dont need a selection menu to select from eh? | 01:53 |
| derenrich | so x won't start on me and dpkg-reconfigure opens a ui that i can't control, tips? | 01:53 |
| darkreaction | aSmig, OK | 01:53 |
| kelvin | bazhang: so this is not the original? | 01:53 |
| yoyone1 | stiv2k: do you know how to use a recovery cd likesystem rescue cd | 01:53 |
| LetsGo67 | IndyGunFreak: I did all of that and it crashes. | 01:53 |
| QUILz | shift_: http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2007-3360 and http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2007-4584 | 01:53 |
| stiv2k | yoyone1: so I have to reinstall? | 01:53 |
| stiv2k | yoyone1: this is bullshit | 01:53 |
| IndyGunFreak | bazhang: thank you. | 01:54 |
| kelvin | bazhang: I downloaded it from the official webpage | 01:54 |
| aSmig | darkreaction, that's it.. you are now in your regular system.. you will notice that /proc is empty but otherwise things should work as expected | 01:54 |
| shift_ | amenado: The installer is boked - There's no method of selecting packages at all. If you select that option, it just starts installing random crap. | 01:54 |
| === lolcatz is now known as UserNobody | ||
| bazhang | stiv2k, no cursing please | 01:54 |
| shift_ | QUILz: Thanks! | 01:54 |
| aSmig | darkreaction, and if you need anything from proc, you can mount /proc | 01:54 |
| yoyone1 | stiv2k: no, boot a live cd,chroot into system, and type passwd in terminal to redo root password | 01:54 |
| amenado | shift_ if you want the very basic without even the kernel, use debootstrap install technique | 01:54 |
| stiv2k | yoyone1: but i lost _all_ the other passwd entries | 01:54 |
| stiv2k | yoyone1: the default system ones | 01:55 |
| aSmig | darkreaction, when you are done, umount /proc; exit and don't forget to umount /media/techsupport before restarting | 01:55 |
| shift_ | amenado: What I was looking for was linux+bash+apt+associated things needed to boot. | 01:55 |
| UserNobody | how do you mount ext3 as read and write in hardy ( need example line of codes for /etc/fstab ) thank you very much | 01:55 |
| yoyone1 | once you get a root password, you can use the root acount to enter the passwords for the other users stiv2k | 01:55 |
| m_newton | What do i enter to find out info on my hardware | 01:56 |
| stiv2k | yoyone1: they arent real users, just users like `gdm` and stuff | 01:56 |
| bazhang | !password | 01:56 |
| ubottu | Forgot your password? Boot into recovery mode. What's the root password? See !sudo. Don't see *** in password prompts? That's normal. Sudo doesn't ask for your password? It remembers you for several minutes. Please use strong passwords, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/StrongPasswords | 01:56 |
| stiv2k | bazhang: i cant use sudo | 01:56 |
| amenado | shift_-> i believe debootstrap will provide that for you.. offcourse you need linux as minimum and just apt-get install pkgname as needed | 01:56 |
| bazhang | stiv2k, use livecd to reset | 01:56 |
| aSmig | UserNobody, take a look a/usr/share/doc/mount/examples/fstabt | 01:56 |
| Colin1 | Any idea how to run 2 songs at once? | 01:57 |
| stiv2k | bazhang: ok | 01:57 |
| shift_ | amenado: I'll have to look into it, then. Never ran debootstrap before. | 01:57 |
| m_newton | This is in terminal. What do i enter to get the hardware detail | 01:57 |
| LetsGo67 | !dvd | 01:57 |
| ubottu | For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at !Medibuntu or (for Feisty and earlier) http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs | 01:57 |

| genii | bazhang: Geez, that guy still acting up?? | 01:58 |
| amenado | m_newtwon sudo lspci, sudo lshw | 01:58 |
| fabz0r | well it depends on the the program, different apps choose different sound servers | 01:58 |
| yoyone1 | stiv2k: I don't think every etc/passwd file is the same | 01:58 |
| bazhang | genii, sadly yes | 01:58 |
| fabz0r | and you may well always be running a few | 01:59 |

| Colin1 | Ok, well I just set all the boxes to OSS | 01:59 |
| fabz0r | theres alsa, oss and now pulseaudio | 01:59 |

| fabz0r | its for "dj mixing" | 02:04 |
| agliodbs | genii: hmmm. I get no hits on a dpkg -l '*kolab*' | 02:04 |
| kelvin | bazhang: I guess | 02:04 |
| Colin1 | Not sure what that is. | 02:04 |
| bazhang | kelvin, if so, could you boot up into it and see what ifconfig shows (ie three entries or two) | 02:04 |
| Colin1 | Maybe its something I should consider downloading? | 02:04 |

| steven_ | talk to bazhang | 02:14 |
| yoyone1 | litlebuda: i don't know | 02:14 |
| shingalated | erichammond, it is a backup script on a server. No one can see it unless they have root access...and if they do there is a bigger problem | 02:14 |
| OneyFesti | And this: | 02:14 |
| OneyFesti | (type=Tooltip | Notification | Utility) | 02:14 |
| thegothguy | OneyFesti: i asked what is a "simple" question and all i get is ignored dont feel bad | 02:14 |
| OneyFesti | I'm missing the 3rd. | 02:14 |
| bazhang | OneyFesti, what app is that for | 02:14 |
| steven_ | which app? | 02:14 |
| sileni | hey guys im using heron and my sound dies after a while of usage and only starts working after restart | 02:15 |
| litlebuda | yoyone1, ok will try | 02:15 |
| sileni | can someone help me with this problem :) | 02:15 |
| litlebuda | thanks | 02:15 |
| bazhang | thegothguy, what question | 02:15 |
| bazhang | thegothguy, I missed it | 02:15 |
| eross | will i always have to repair my xorg screen using the recovery grub option, when upgrading the kernel? | 02:15 |
| yoyone1 | litlebuda: do you have a connected system you can test on | 02:15 |
| Drk_Guy | eross: no | 02:15 |
| yellowsubmarine | i'm having trouble finding a way to play my flac files in cplayer, can anyone help? | 02:15 |
| OneyFesti | bazhang: Compiz > Effects > Animations > Open Animation | 02:15 |
| Drk_Guy | eross: Even if X is upgraded, xorg.conf is mantained | 02:15 |
| bazhang | OneyFesti, best to ask in compiz channel as they handle the tough ones | 02:16 |
| thegothguy | im trying to connect to my wireless modem but my WEP key is like 3 charachters too short but works fine on a win machine any answers | 02:16 |
| eross | so far i fall into low-resolution every time the header has been upgraded (last 3, .17 - .19) | 02:16 |
| OneyFesti | It's easy just go look in yours. =P | 02:16 |
| litlebuda | yoyone1, yes i have this one | 02:16 |
| OneyFesti | bazhang, if you're running compiz then your values are there by default. | 02:16 |
| OneyFesti | I deleted one of the default values by mistake. | 02:16 |
| Drk_Guy | eross: Extarnge, back-up your xorg.conf everytime that happens | 02:16 |
| stevenbrown | programs are not moving files they create out of my /tmp directory. the permissions of /tmp are "drwxrwxrwt" - I'm not sure what the "t" means (tmp?) but is this a problem? | 02:16 |
| OneyFesti | No one is #compiz-fusion is replying. | 02:16 |
| eross | i can do it now, haven't rebooted yet on the last update | 02:16 |
| bazhang | OneyFesti, I am not using compiz; the best person to ask is cr-dlb (without the hyphen) in #compiz-fusion channel | 02:17 |
| stevenbrown | anyway, i need programs to move their tmp files. any help appreciated. :) | 02:17 |
| kelvin | bazhang: http://paste.ubuntu.com/22482/ | 02:17 |
| OneyFesti | Damnit. =( | 02:17 |
| jdrake | Is there a way to get portaudio to not turn off the sound when moving to a different terminal? | 02:17 |
| yoyone1 | install fluxbox on the working machine and note any dependancies as well. then copy those files to usb. the files will be in /var/cache/apt/archive | 02:17 |
| OneyFesti | No one responds in there. | 02:17 |
| eross | load "glx" - i see no video resolution options in it | 02:18 |
| bazhang | kelvin, what does sudo dhclient wlan0 return (any dhcpoffers) also, is this an open router, and if not please open it for test | 02:18 |
| tofaffy | I installed cairo-dock yesterday and it ran fine. I went to start it up today, and when I pull the dock out, it has a black bar behind it and it's all glitchy. Is there a known problem? | 02:18 |
| * ace_suares is in da house | 02:18 | |
| ace_suares | OneyFesti: what was yr question ? | 02:19 |
| yellowsubmarine | can anyone help me? i wish to run flac in cplay | 02:19 |
| kelvin | bazhang: http://paste.ubuntu.com/22483/ | 02:19 |

| OneyFesti | ace_suares, I deleted one of the default animation values by mistake. | 02:19 |
| JoshuaP0x | is there a way to see my choices of installed programs that i can run? | 02:19 |
| ace_suares | OneyFesti: animation values ? | 02:19 |
| kelvin | bazhang: this router is from the university, I can't open it | 02:19 |
| OneyFesti | Yeah for Window Match | 02:20 |
| yoyone1 | JoshuaP0x: the menu? | 02:20 |
| onthefence928 | OneyFesti: that's why capies should always be made before you modify a file, though i'm sorry i know nothing of compiz so i can't help u | 02:20 |
| JoshuaP0x | yoyo: yes | 02:20 |
| onthefence928 | copies* | 02:20 |
| Colin1 | Cant seem to figure out how to install terminatorx | 02:20 |
| OneyFesti | onthefence928, it wasn't about making a copy dude. | 02:20 |
| OneyFesti | I was just changing some settings and right next to modify is delete and I clicked the wrong one by mistake and it doesnt ask you. | 02:20 |
| yoyone1 | JoshuaP0x: click on applications | 02:20 |
| kelvin | bazhang: dhcpoffers how I do it? | 02:20 |
| ericholscher | does anyone know why when I install ubuntu w/ parallels the screen resolution is tiny, and it doesn't detect the video card? | 02:20 |

| onthefence928 | OneyFesti: ah well i'm sorry then, that's tough luck | 02:21 |
| erichammond | shingalated: Looks like my info might be a few years out of date. Ubuntu ps does not appear to let users see the environment variables in other user's processes any more. | 02:21 |
| bazhang | kelvin, if you sudo dhclient wlan0 what is the output (should get dhcpoffers) | 02:21 |
| Colin1 | fabz0r: How would I go about installing terminatorX? | 02:22 |
| ace_suares | JoshuaP0x: 'dpkg-query -l' | 02:22 |
| OneyFesti | ace_suares, Go to your CompizConfig Settings Manager > Effects > Animations > Open Animation and tell me if you see three open effect options. | 02:22 |

| JoshuaP0x | how do you make it so when you type ls /usr/bin, it scrolls down one page at a time | 02:22 |
| Colin1 | fabz0r: I download the tar.gz file, but I don't know what to do with these things. | 02:22 |

| kelvin | bazhang: http://paste.ubuntu.com/22485/ | 02:23 |

| Reformer81 | Okay, does ANYONE else have the problem with playing flash in Firefox and then not being able to use any other sound application until rebooting? This has been happening for me since switching to Hardy ... doesn't matter if I try to use Pulse or ALSA... same thing every time. | 02:27 |
| ace_suares | tofaffy: sounds like lack of composite in your videocard | 02:27 |
| genii | ace_suares: No, that only has a list of what modules to load at boot. The sub-modules to load based on what original module you load is something different. | 02:27 |

| IndyGunFreak | sileni: randomly?.. not really... pulse-audio has a lot of issues(for me), i've found using alsa, and setting all my programs to use alsa, has solved my sound issues. | 02:34 |

| kelvin | bazhang: any idea? | 02:37 |

| lukas__ | yeah i've chcked that wiki sectdion a hundred times | 03:11 |
| JeffFromOhio | I tried to use the envyng package to install the latest driver | 03:11 |
| spikeb | heh | 03:11 |
| spikeb | any reason why? | 03:12 |
| DrLame | The fast-paced nature of this room is daunting. bazhang, you lurking somewhere with a slower environment? lol | 03:12 |
| JeffFromOhio | spikeb: are you asking me, or someone else? | 03:12 |
| spikeb | JeffFromOhio: yes you, sorry | 03:12 |
| grtessman | omg guys, I am having a serious problem with Firefox and JRE/JDK on Ubuntu Hardy | 03:12 |
| bazhang | DrLame, #ubuntu-offtopic for chatting :) | 03:12 |
| JeffFromOhio | well, because I've been getting some graphical glitches in some 3D games, which I was hoping would be corrected with the latest driver | 03:12 |
| grtessman | I have been working all day for this | 03:12 |
| lukas__ | IndyGunFreak: any other ideas? | 03:12 |
| IndyGunFreak | lukas__: did you follow this part of it? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Hardy | 03:13 |
| lukas__ | yes | 03:13 |
| JeffFromOhio | Turns out that the 3D games seemed to work better, but Gnome was messed up | 03:13 |
| JeffFromOhio | So, I decided it might be a good idea to revert to the original drivers | 03:13 |
| aeGIs | Question: Whenever I access something that requires my admin password (Update Manager, etc.) the background goes slightly gray/dark.... However, once I enter my password, the background does not update properly. You have to drag a window around to make the screen catch up. Any ideas as to how to fix this? | 03:13 |

| grtessman | Is it just impossible to get JRE/JDK to work with Firefox 2 or Firefox 3 in Ubuntu Hardy? Can someone please tell me what the secret is? | 03:14 |

| __ryan__ | lukas__, what's the issue with it? | 03:15 |
| fabz0r | it is a frontend that installs drivers for you | 03:15 |
| fabz0r | i mean like a helper app | 03:15 |
| CatCheeto | I just installed mysql, I type mysql -you root and get "Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)" | 03:15 |

| SeaPhor | Flannel, sorry bro, thats one for the support blogs, lol | 03:42 |
| kreig | Please, help me, does somebody knows how to disable the automatic hardware detecting at ubuntu's startup? | 03:43 |
| shelbyscates | yoyoned: im willing to do anything.. i just need to get my computer to turn on automatically every morning! ill do anything! if i had an old alarm clock id strap it to the computer but i dont, so is there no way to get wol to work or ANYTHING else for that matter to get it to turn on by itself?? | 03:43 |
| spoonman | yoyoned: wake on lan | 03:43 |
| crimsun_ | kreig: ...meaning udev? | 03:43 |
| natalisushka | hi ppl. Why starting the system takes so much time, stucking at Checking file system fsck bla bla? Is there a way to turn this off and do it manually, if it's a so important? I really don't like the fact that windows is much more faster on starting than ubnutn (since i hate windows). Anyone? | 03:43 |

| kreig | mmm, not sure, i've just installed a new PCI card, its Brooktree Card | 03:43 |
| natalisushka | ubuntu* | 03:43 |
| spoonman | grtessman: if you're just trying to get java applet to run in Firefox, have you tried icedtea? | 03:44 |
| amenado | shelbyscates-> do you have other host on same lan to awaken your box? | 03:44 |
| kreig | but it takes so long to start the sistem | 03:44 |
| Flannel | natalisushka: Assuming you power down properly, it only does it every... like 30 reboots or something. You can change that number, but it is something you have to do without the system running fully (which is why it happens at startup) | 03:44 |
| grtessman | spoonman, icedtea comes with openjdk doesnt it? | 03:44 |
| kreig | it tooks at least 3 minutes to start | 03:44 |
| magic_ninja | hey | 03:44 |
| magic_ninja | i'm having a problem | 03:44 |
| grtessman | That doesnt work either | 03:44 |
| yoyoned | shelbyscates: maybe there is another solutuion, what are you trying to get done | 03:44 |
| kreig | when before, it tooks only 30 secs | 03:44 |
| magic_ninja | when i logout, x won't restart it just sits there showing my background and doesn't restart like its supposed to, i have to manually restart it | 03:45 |
| kreig | Im sure is a module problem | 03:45 |
| kreig | related with the BTTV | 03:45 |
| shelbyscates | amenado: yes, i do, i have one server that stays on for a year at a time and i reboot every chirstmas, im going to use that to send the magic packet, i think my problem is A: im not shutting it down right (hard off or soft off) i just run sudo halt, and maybe it needs to suspend or something, but i dont know how to do that from the command line! :( | 03:45 |
| kreig | but I want to disable the automatic loading | 03:45 |

| shelbyscates | all i need to do is get my computer to turn on by itself at a time i specify. | 03:45 |
| asmo[B] | could someone help me setup sharing of an external drive hooked up to my ubuntu-desktop with my windwos-laptop | 03:45 |
| shelbyscates | ill do nearly anything :\ | 03:45 |
| grtessman | spoonman, I am trying to get java enabled in my browser and pass the test here: http://www.javatester.org/ | 03:46 |
| Kyrin | shelbyscates: some BIOS has a timed wake option | 03:46 |
| grtessman | because I need it for VPN access | 03:46 |
| erpo | shelbyscates: That's all you want? For your PC to turn on every morning? | 03:46 |
| asmo[B] | even if it's remote desktop | 03:46 |
| kreig | asmo: you can try sharing this device using Samba | 03:46 |
| shelbyscates | erpo: yes, thats ALL AND MY LIFE WIL BE FULFILLED | 03:46 |
| erpo | shelbyscates: That's often a BIOS setting. | 03:46 |
| Kyrin | lol | 03:46 |
| shelbyscates | Kyrin: mine dosent, just the wol setting :( | 03:46 |
| natalisushka | Flannel, I know what you're talking about. But it's not it! It's not that checking with a loading bar like ----------- with a slash going around. It's just something like * Checking file system .. and then fsck 1.40 something ... that's it! And sure I do power down properly. This happens on the two laptops that I have with ubuntu | 03:46 |
| shelbyscates | it dosent have a timed wake setting, just a wol setting :( | 03:46 |
| asmo[B] | kreig: I've installed the Samba package but, am unsure as to how to set it up | 03:47 |
| erpo | shelbyscates: Look carefully. | 03:47 |
| natalisushka | Flannel, So about the 30 days, it's not what I am talking about. | 03:47 |
| amenado | shelbyscates-> you have to create a script with /usr/bin/sudo /usr/sbin/ethtool -s eth0 wol g | 03:47 |
| amenado | stored as /etc/network/if-up.d/wol-enable | 03:47 |
| Droose | hey all. i'm having some issues with firefox launching after the most recent update. I can run it in SU, but I get a weird error | 03:47 |
| shelbyscates | amenado: done it, three times. | 03:47 |
| shelbyscates | erpo: ive been looking for a week now | 03:47 |
| amenado | shelbyscates-> what you have done three times? | 03:47 |
| spoonman | grtessman: do you have "Sun Java 6 Runtime" installed? | 03:47 |
| kreig | asmo: the only thing you have to do, first, is to sheck if the device is already mounted | 03:47 |
| aaron | anyone here know about the kiba dock program? | 03:47 |
| shelbyscates | amenado: i have followed 3 different wol tutorials telling me to do basically the same thing | 03:48 |
| spoonman | it should be in Applications>Internet | 03:48 |
| koshari | amenado how will the script run if the machine is turned off? | 03:48 |
| erpo | aaron: If you want that effect, try avant-window-navigator. | 03:48 |
| Flannel | natalisushka: You should install bootchart (its in the repos) and then you'll get a fancy output of what exactly is taking so long | 03:48 |
| shelbyscates | i think my problem is that im not hibernating it right | 03:48 |
| spoonman | or something that sounds like it | 03:48 |
| Kidfork | How do i get a shortcut of my hard-drive onto my desktop? | 03:48 |
| asmo[B] | kreig: the device is mounted, I was told that all I have to do is right click on it and click on sharing, but no such option exists in my menu | 03:48 |
| aaron | wait what effect? | 03:48 |
| grtessman | spoonman, I believe I uninstalled everythign since I cant get one to work | 03:48 |
| erpo | aaron: The Mac OS X dock thing. | 03:48 |
| grtessman | Can you tell me what versions work spoonman? | 03:48 |
| amenado | koshari due to wake on lan feature set in the bios | 03:48 |
| aaron | no no I have kiba install and everything it looks awesome | 03:49 |
| Droose | It's rejecting my authentication it seems | 03:49 |
| natalisushka | Flannel, Ok I'll install that and report. Thanks. | 03:49 |
| koshari | shelbyscates i thing you may need a hardware solution, a dongle that could create a lan WOL signal at a specified time would prolly suffice, | 03:49 |
| spoonman | well, I installed Sun Java 6 Runtime, Icedtea, and OpenJDK Java Runtime | 03:49 |
| shelbyscates | ive heard that some bios's only support soft off (suspend to ram) or hard off (suspend to hard disk) i cant do either of those because i have to do it from the command line! | 03:49 |
| matthias_N | anybody knows how to free up used memory | 03:49 |
| amenado | shelbyscates-> i dont know which tutorials you followed, so it hard to find out wht you have done 3 times | 03:49 |
| aaron | I just have a question about the separtors...how do I place items on the dock in a certain order? | 03:49 |
| grtessman | Which is your default location? | 03:49 |
| HerbMonk | I am trying to lean python could somebody give me a (Tutorial) link for nubs that uses Gedit | 03:50 |

| asmo[B] | didn't even think of that... hate when it's so simple | 03:51 |
| Flannel | HerbMonk: try diveintopython | 03:51 |
| grtessman | spoonman, what does your /etc/alternatives/java point to? | 03:51 |
| koshari | you could have a relay connected to the start button off a timer however if it were on it would turn it off as well. | 03:51 |

| CuriousCat | hello. Has anyone here ever used Wammu/Gammu before? | 03:52 |
| shelbyscates | i would have paid someone to to this by now but i cant even find anyone to do that. | 03:52 |
| shelbyscates | so seriously, someone tell me how to suspend to ram from the command line. | 03:53 |
| amenado | shelbyscates-> did you actually use shutdown command or halt ? | 03:53 |
| shelbyscates | i use sudo halt | 03:53 |
| asmo[B] | kreig: is there a way to do it in terminal? | 03:53 |
| shelbyscates | amenado: i use sudo halt, im pretty sure wake on lan can only wake up a system thats been suspended to memory. | 03:53 |
| grtessman | spoonman, I see what you are talking about. | 03:53 |
| shelbyscates | amenado: but i dont know how to suspend to memory from the command line. | 03:54 |
| amenado | shelbyscates-> tutorials says use shutdown -h now... which am not sure if its fully powers off or just in that powerstandby mode | 03:54 |
| shelbyscates | this is my problem. | 03:54 |
| shelbyscates | ok it does? | 03:54 |
| krono2k5 | i try connecting my xp system to the domain and i get the following error message could not found usr nae | 03:54 |
| krono2k5 | mae | 03:54 |
| * shelbyscates tries shutdown -h | 03:54 | |
| asmo[B] | kreig: when I try to do it, it says that it can not share devices that we do not own.... so I need to sudo it I guess | 03:54 |
| spoonman | grtessman, it points to /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/java | 03:54 |
| yoyoned | shelbyscates: have you tried any of the scripts in /etc/acpi | 03:54 |

| shelbyscates | yoyoned: no . | 03:55 |
| kreig | asmo: well, only by the config files under /etc/samba | 03:55 |
| kreig | asmo: specifically smb.conf | 03:55 |
| grtessman | ok so you are using openjdk | 03:55 |
| koshari | CuriousCat hcitool scan | 03:55 |
| moosepants | /msg ubottu etiquette | 03:55 |

| grtessman | spoonman, are you using Firefox 3? | 03:57 |

| kreig | IdleOne: sorry | 03:57 |
| koshari | CuriousCat if you ant to send a file from comp > phone use nautilus send to, otherwise the receive use the BT manager | 03:57 |

| grtessman | Spoonman, can u tell me if u are indeed using FF 3? | 03:58 |
| amenado | kreig-> why do you want to stop that? how would it detect the rest of your devices? | 03:58 |
| santo | ok, i know ubuntu does not need it but i'm sharing files with a windows pc, thats why i need it, i have wine already | 03:58 |

| Kyrin | fabz0r: sadly, my laptop has few config options | 04:05 |
| Kyrin | relik77: sometimes you just gotta get lucky with catching the eye of someone who knows something about your issue | 04:06 |
| fabz0r | well have a look it might just be called something different | 04:06 |
| saint_ | Where's xorg.conf in ubuntu? | 04:06 |

| SeaPhor | Integration, gparted does,wipe-outs, get clarity from marge | 04:38 |
| prakriti | maybe I should ask: what is the equivalent to inittab in ubutu? | 04:38 |

| hololight_ | asmo: you need to find a vnc client | 04:39 |
| unavailable | like i said, thanks man | 04:39 |
| SeaPhor | unavailable, Great! | 04:39 |
| asmo[B] | hololight_: any suggestions? | 04:39 |
| Knightly88 | !Nautilus | 04:39 |
| ubottu | Factoid nautilus not found | 04:39 |
| dru | pen: isnt there something called vmware .. where i can just open anew windows and have windows? | 04:39 |
| Blaqlight | asmo vnc | 04:40 |
| danbhfive | grtessman: do you know the sources gui program? | 04:40 |
| Blaqlight | tightvnc is what I use | 04:40 |
| snarkster | dru yes butr why not try wine first | 04:40 |
| asmo[B] | !vnc | 04:40 |
| ubottu | VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX | 04:40 |
| pen | dru: it's virtualization | 04:40 |
| snarkster | !wine | 04:40 |
| 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. | 04:40 |
| grtessman | danbhfive,.. never used it | 04:40 |
| pen | dru: it's different than dual booting | 04:40 |
| hololight_ | no, my only mac is a g3 so i dont use it anymore; i'd just try the first link that shows up on a google search for "os x vnc client" | 04:40 |
| dru | pen: doesnt it work just the same? | 04:40 |
| grtessman | but I can use vi pretty well | 04:40 |
| asmo[B] | Blaqlight: tightvnc runs on my osx or on both? | 04:40 |
| dru | pen: im only going to use windows for photoshop .. (since i cant get it working in wine) .. lol | 04:41 |
| Blaqlight | oh wait. | 04:41 |
| Blaqlight | lemme check | 04:41 |
| snarkster | dru yuck... try gimp | 04:41 |
| snarkster | !GIMP | 04:41 |
| ubottu | gimp is an advanced image manipulation application for Ubuntu. See http://www.gimp.org for tutorials and more information. | 04:41 |
| pen | dru: then it's better to just use vmware or virtualbox | 04:41 |
| danbhfive | grtessman: you should fire it up, and check off all the boxes except updates-proposed. Right now, you seem to be missing multiverse repos | 04:41 |
| pen | dru: no need to install another os on separate partition for one app | 04:41 |
| dru | pen: lol i know .. well i think about it man .. thanks | 04:42 |
| snarkster | you cant get photoshop to work under wine? | 04:42 |
| asmo[B] | !tightvnc | 04:42 |
| grtessman | missing? multiverse is in there isnt it? | 04:42 |

| danbhfive | grtessman: gksu --desktop /usr/share/applications/software-properties.desktop /usr/bin/software-properties-gtk | 04:44 |
| hololight_ | jga23: as i recall you can allow certain interfaces for ssh connections | 04:45 |
| grtessman | ok | 04:45 |
| snarkster | dru does that help you | 04:45 |
| hololight_ | jga23: or it could be a firewall issue as firewall rules can be set by interface | 04:45 |
| SeaPhor | SweetJimmy, you have to word your question more specific here, and include all info,,, and all in 1 long line if needed (not multiple enter hits) | 04:45 |
| grtessman | danbhfive, yes I have seen this before. What would you like me to do here? | 04:45 |
| jga23 | hololight_: where would I change that? | 04:46 |
| grtessman | danbhfive, The top 4 are checked and the fifth has a line through the checkbox | 04:46 |
| grtessman | Under third party tab ... canonical repositories arent chcked | 04:46 |
| dru | snarkster: no .. i have the cd .. not another pc with it already installed .. sorry | 04:47 |
| grtessman | danbhfive, under updates.. Important and Recommended are the only ones checked | 04:47 |
| === kumarphilly is now known as I | ||
| snarkster | dru hmm ok | 04:47 |
| === I is now known as kumarphilly | ||
| grtessman | danbhfive, and Check daily with a notify about available updates | 04:47 |
| arooni_ | ok i'm unsure if anything like this exists.... but you know what happens when you use control + r? is there a way to have that *always turned on*? i.e. as you're typing it's constantly matching previous commands you run? | 04:47 |
| Dex-Freudii | I just got a numeric pad for my laptop. But in order to use it I have to turn on the Num Lock, making my text keyboard not to recognize letter... Is ther a way to avoid that?? | 04:47 |
| SweetJimmy | 44.3415371 isapnp: checksum for device1 is not valid (0x89) | 04:48 |
| grtessman | so what am I looking for? | 04:48 |
| snarkster | Dex-Freudii: nope there are several issues with numlock for laptops. | 04:48 |
| hololight_ | jga23: not sure | 04:48 |
| Dex-Freudii | snarkster: is that only in ubuntu or in any operating system including windows? | 04:48 |
| danbhfive | grtessman: yeah, i dunno, I guess your sources is ok. The error still is indicating bad sources. Maybe you need to run a sudo apt-get update | 04:48 |
| Hammer89 | did the latest kernel update break wifi for anyone else here? | 04:49 |
| snarkster | um possibly others but I really wouldnt know. Being this is an ubuntu channel. sorry I couldnt be more helpful | 04:49 |
| grtessman | ok, the error indicates the package isnt available. I did an update earlier today for about 13 different things. | 04:49 |
| Raza | nope Hammer89 | 04:49 |
| SeaPhor | SweetJimmy, ask your question, with your details, and all info,,,, | 04:49 |
| grtessman | danbhfive, if you completely remove using Synaptics, you will not be able to get it back. | 04:49 |
| snarkster | i need to reboot bbl | 04:49 |
| Dex-Freudii | snarkster: I don't plan to move to another operating system, just wanted to know whether it is a hardware issue or software | 04:50 |
| fabz0r | heyhey | 04:50 |
| grtessman | danbhfive, since the package just isnt available. But you'll have to "completely remove" | 04:50 |
| fabz0r | im thinking of installing 7.1 | 04:50 |
| eyyYo | Is there any software to check what computers are connected to the network? MAC Address, IP Address, Computer name, and so on. | 04:50 |
| fabz0r | so can i use new xorg driver on the older distro? | 04:50 |
| hololight_ | jga23: check this, it may help http://www.howtoforge.com/ssh-best-practices | 04:50 |
| fabz0r | hmm i remember saying before that 8.1 go my radeon 3870 work | 04:51 |
| Raza | eyyYo, it depends on which network | 04:51 |
| SweetJimmy | 44.3415371 isapnp: checksum for device1 is not valid (0x89) is the only thing that pops up on my screen. Then the machine reboots. I am trying to do a clean install. I am wondering if there is anything I can do. It will not load anything. | 04:51 |
| clouder`grr | how do I make files and directories in another user's home directory with sudo or otherwise, but have the permissions be fore that user instead of having to chown everything everytime | 04:51 |
| SeaPhor | SweetJimmy, looks like you need to re-download tho, but without more info i'm shootin' in the dark | 04:51 |
| eyyYo | Raza: Well, its a network with a couple of computers connected through a switched router. | 04:51 |
| danbhfive | grtessman: http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/multiverse/s/sun-java6/ there are the packages, Ill try removing completely, and see what happens | 04:52 |
| SweetJimmy | SeaPhor, yeah I can't even check the CD, it just fails instantly | 04:52 |
| SeaPhor | SweetJimmy, what cd is it? | 04:52 |
| Raza | eyyYo, if the router has a menu, you can check it there | 04:52 |
| grtessman | danbhfive, I just did sudo apt-get update, then ran sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin Package sun-java6-plugin is not available, but is referred to by another package | 04:53 |
| eyyYo | Thats true, my bad. | 04:53 |
| eyyYo | Raza, thank you :) | 04:53 |
| SweetJimmy | SeaPhor, the install CD. JUst downloaded it tonight | 04:53 |
| grtessman | This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or | 04:53 |
| grtessman | is only available from another source | 04:53 |
| Raza | eyyYo, there is a distro but i don*t know the name. it*s on tecchannel | 04:53 |
| Raza | a live cd | 04:54 |
| asmo[B] | I'm not able to get tightvnc to work on my ubuntu-desktop | 04:54 |
| SeaPhor | SweetJimmy, what did you download it with, what did you burn it with, what speed did you burn it at,,,,? | 04:54 |
| numan | snarkster: you there? | 04:54 |
| eyyYo | Raza, probably backtrack :) | 04:54 |
| Raza | yeah | 04:55 |
| Raza | everything you need | 04:55 |
| SweetJimmy | SeaPhor, DOwnloaded with Firefox, burned with Nero at 4X. Also tried it in VPC to see if I could get more info and get an unrecoverable processor error | 04:55 |
| Dex-Freudii | In case someone is interested: I found a way to use a usb numeric keypad in laptops without turning on NumLock: Go System/Preferences/Keyboard and then Distribution Options -- Compatibility Misc Options -- Select Numeric Keypad Keys work as with Mac | 04:55 |
| grtessman | sudo apt-get source sun-java6-plugin -->>E: You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list | 04:56 |
| SeaPhor | SweetJimmy, re-download,,, which one, btw, the live or alternate,,,? | 04:56 |
| danbhfive | grtessman: yeah, I dont know, but it is working for me. maybe you could try checking that ubuntu-desktop is installed. But, im out of ideas. sorry | 04:56 |
| grtessman | danbhfive, it's is working from you because you have it archived and u are re-installing | 04:57 |
| Raza | SweetJimmy, md5sum ? | 04:57 |
| ragsagar | guys,how to remove that brown colour comes just before the desktop loads in ubuntu | 04:57 |

| Dex-Freudii | krono2k5: is it a domain or a simple windows local network? | 04:58 |

| SweetJimmy | SeaPhor, ok. Is there an easy way to install this on Virtual PC? I don't want to earase my system and not be able to get it working | 04:59 |
| Dex-Freudii | ragsagar: it is not a utility, I was refering to desktop options in gnome , sorry | 04:59 |
| ragsagar | Dex-Freudii, tat utility for removing brown screen in gnome | 04:59 |
| grtessman | yes got it | 04:59 |
| Dex-Freudii | ragsagar: it would be right-click on desktop and change the background colour | 05:00 |
| ragsagar | Dex-Freudii, it will bea small utility isnt it, eg for changing resolution and drivers ,we use displayconfig-gtk...Like tat | 05:00 |
| grtessman | danbhfive, yah sorry I missed that. These are all the deb and gz packages on nultiverse | 05:00 |
| Dex-Freudii | ragsagar: it would be right-click on desktop and change the background colour | 05:00 |
| ragsagar | Dex-Freudii, oh | 05:00 |
| Dex-Freudii | ok | 05:01 |

| danbhfive | grtessman: yeah, hope it works out | 05:02 |
| ragsagar | Beryllium, install it and remove just acpi :P | 05:02 |
| Flannel | Beryllium: Sure, sudo apt-get --simulate install ubuntu-desktop, then it'll give you a list of packages, copy that list, remove acpi, and install all those manually | 05:02 |

| Zeker | I notice a stranger pattern: I have XP and Ubuntu in my PC. I have an Nvidia 9600 gt card. In Ubuntu, I have the accelerated graphics drivers installed. However, there are times I log into Windows then restart the machine and switch to Ubuntu and the machine locks up at the Nvidia splash screen. It's got static or white grain all over it and doesn't proceed to Ubuntu. Reinstalling the drivers solves the problem... for a w | 05:06 |
| Zeker | hile. Can logging into XP corrupt Ubuntu's Nvidia drivers? | 05:06 |
| Lukipela | So using the alternate CD shouldnt give me any problems for 8.04 ?? | 05:06 |

| Zeker | it's all good, dex | 05:09 |
| Dex-Freudii | Zeker: what's for sure is that windows does not affect the ubuntu driver | 05:10 |

| StephenZ | SeaPhor: Some folks are accustomed to the XP interface, and are quite fond of it. Can't fault 'em for preference - at least they've made the switch, window-dressings aside. | 05:15 |
| SeaPhor | StephenZ, but have to have compiz, and vm, and... and where does it really end,,, JUST kill M$ and be done,,, lol | 05:17 |
| spoonman | I downloaded over 200 updates when I installed Hardy | 05:18 |
| spoonman | about 230MB | 05:18 |
| kiris | so? | 05:18 |
| legend2440 | ragsagar: if i remember right color also has to be changed in system>pref>appearance>background >colors | 05:19 |
| StephenZ | SeaPhor: Well... It's a matter of UI. Some people want different things from others, as their needs and wants are different. Windows is (though perhaps on the road to "was") a very high-volume product. | 05:19 |
| StephenZ | They must be doing SOMETHING right. | 05:19 |
| ragsagar | legend2440, i told you iam not using gnome,i dont have gnome installed in my system,i am using aubunu minimal system with fluxbox | 05:20 |
| kiris | where is my tracker-enabled nautilus in hardy?? @____@ | 05:20 |
| SeaPhor | StephenZ, i work for HP,,,,,,,,,,,,, lol your () are closer than you know | 05:21 |
| grtessman | danbhfive, Ok.. I am using your sources.. then I did a sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin and still get Package sun-java6-plugin is not available, but is referred to by another package. | 05:21 |
| StephenZ | Well, you might say the same of your employer, unfortunately. | 05:21 |
| bullgard4 | What is meant by 'PAGE_SHIFT' in /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.24/include/asm-x86/page_32.h: "/* PAGE_SHIFT determines the page size */"? | 05:21 |
| legend2440 | ragsagar: not familiar with fluxbox. if you right click desktop is there a change background option? if so change background color in there also | 05:21 |
| StephenZ | Though, for all that, I -am- working on a butchered HP system right now. xD | 05:22 |
| kiris | !tracker | 05:22 |
| ubottu | Services to index files for fast searching include: Beagle (front-ends: beagle, catfish, gnome-main-menu, mozilla-beagle for !GNOME; kerry, kio-beagle for !KDE; beaglefs for !CLI) - Tracker (tracker-search-tool, libdeskbar-tracker for GNOME; tracker-utils for CLI) - Strigi (strigi-applet, strigi-client for KDE, strigi-utils for CLI) - Kat (for KDE) - Pinot (and pinot-applet for GNOME) - Doodle (for CLI) | 05:22 |
| wols | bullgard4: how is this ubuntu related? go to ##kernel or ##kernelnewbies | 05:22 |
| danbhfive | grtessman: well, here is a last ditch effort: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop^ ^ is intended | 05:22 |
| whik | what do i type in the command box to check my systems specs? | 05:22 |
| wols | whik: lshw | 05:22 |
| matt___ | Hey all, I'm in need of some serious help removing a broken package, I've tried everything that I could find online about apt-get and dpkg and nothing works, who wants to take it on? | 05:22 |
| whik | thanks | 05:22 |
| grtessman | danbhfive, ok... but please note | 05:22 |
| victamower | pick me, pick me!! | 05:23 |
| saka | anybody? | 05:23 |
| ross_ | hello, i would like to know why when i restart there are different choices to boot into the OS | 05:23 |
| grtessman | danbhfive... I downloaded the sun-java6-plugin_6-06-0ubuntu1_i386.deb and the package installer says "Status: Error: Wrong architecture 'i386' | 05:23 |
| matt___ | this is probably best carried on outside IRC, IM me at aim:cmpmatt | 05:23 |
| danbhfive | grtessman: are you using 32bit or 64bit? | 05:24 |
| __ryan__ | grtessman, you running 64bit? | 05:24 |
| ross_ | for example, i keep seeing ubuntu ..............15, memtest......15, and ubuntu ..................19, memtest.............19,what does this mean/ | 05:24 |
| spoonman | sounds like 64 bit | 05:24 |
| grtessman | danbhfive 32 bit | 05:24 |
| wols | grtessman: on amd64 you need to use nspluginwrappre with this package | 05:24 |
| victamower | matt: sudo apt-get remove --purge <package> | 05:24 |
| bullgard4 | wols: I am surprised that you don't know how this is Ubuntu related. The answwer is so simple that you could know it: If I would not use Ubuntu, I would not have reason to bother about 'PAGE_SHIFT'. | 05:24 |
| Flannel | ross_: What? | 05:24 |
| wols | grtessman: dpkg --print-architecture | 05:24 |
| rOss | whut? | 05:24 |
| fabz0r | okay on second thought im not installing 7.1 that would be silly :P | 05:24 |
| grtessman | wols, I am not using amd, I am using intel | 05:24 |
| rOss | nvm... | 05:24 |
| Angela_Smith | I have been trying to get my mouse to work in hardy, I have a M$ intelimouse explorer, and it moves way too slow. Adjusting it in the preferences > mouse only helps slightly, is there somewhere else I can tweak my mouse speed? Thank you :) | 05:24 |
| ross_ | Flannel: when I reboot, the partition page shows several different boot options, | 05:24 |
| wols | bullgard4: stop it. and stay on topic: ubuntu, NOT assembly language | 05:25 |
| fabz0r | hmm Angela_Smith | 05:25 |
| wols | grtessman: use the command I just wrote | 05:25 |
| grtessman | wols, interesting dpkg --print-architecture = amd64 | 05:25 |
| ross_ | Flannel: for ubuntu, there are different boot partitions, but they all are the same | 05:25 |
| grtessman | wols, but I dont have an amd64 | 05:25 |
| whik | is 1400 MHZ with 255 system mem good cause im always getting errors about not having enough memory *for instance i had to use the altrenate CD* | 05:25 |
| __ryan__ | you sure? lol | 05:25 |
| fabz0r | so have you played with sensitivity and acceleration? | 05:25 |
| matt___ | victamower: i tried that already | 05:25 |
| ross_ | Flannel: but why at the end, they have a different number | 05:25 |
| victamower | matt: what's the problem? | 05:25 |
| Flannel | ross_: They are different kernel versions. But there should only be one memtest | 05:25 |
| Angela_Smith | yes fabz0r | 05:25 |
| fabz0r | because that should absolutely fly | 05:25 |
| danbhfive | grtessman: intels support amd64 | 05:25 |
| wols | whik: yes it is. but 512MB would be better | 05:25 |
| fabz0r | whacky mines fine hey | 05:26 |
| Flannel | ross_: And thats not a partition page, thats the GRUB menu | 05:26 |
| victamower | matt: did you install the package using apt-get/synaptic? | 05:26 |
| ross_ | Flannel: what is GRUB? | 05:26 |
| wols | whik: and you WILL need swap with 256MB | 05:26 |
| bullgard4 | wols: Are you trying to police me? Stop it. Ubuntu does use assembly language. Assembly language is a subset of Ubuntu. | 05:26 |
| wols | ross_: your bootloader | 05:26 |
| Flannel | ross_: GRUB is your bootloader | 05:26 |
| grtessman | danbhfive, and wols - okay so what is the problem? I thought I was using i386 .. I use wubi to install ubuntu. | 05:26 |
| kiris | zomg tracker for nautilus's hardy? does it exist? O______O | 05:26 |
| brut_win | this | 05:26 |
| brut_win | space | 05:26 |
| brut_win | is | 05:26 |
| whik | wols, if i had the money i would till then i got like 2 128 sticks | 05:26 |
| brut_win | for | 05:26 |
| ross_ | Flannel: also, since you mentioned the kernel visions, does that mean the one with the highest number is the lastest version? | 05:26 |
| brut_win | rent | 05:26 |
| FloodBot3 | brut_win: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 05:26 |
| matt___ | victamower: it just comes back when i run apt-get again | 05:26 |
| * wols puts bullgard4 on ignore | 05:26 | |
| Flannel | ross_: It does | 05:26 |
| brut_win | 05:26 | |
| brut_win | 05:26 | |
| brut_win | 05:26 | |
| brut_win | 05:26 | |
| whik | weird though one stick says 256 mb | 05:26 |
| brut_win | 05:26 | |
| FloodBot3 | brut_win: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 05:26 |

| gotamatw | Hi! I've installed Gutsy 7.10. After installed the updates I can login on any thin client. Can anyone help, please? | 05:27 |
| Flannel | !ops | brut_win | 05:27 |
| danbhfive | grtessman: i suggest that you reinstall with 32bit, for the very trouble you are having | 05:27 |

| ross_ | Flannel: so i don't need the previous versions then | 05:27 |
| whik | \the other doesnt but when i remove it the sysem notices | 05:27 |
| wols | victamower: tell this to bullgard4, not me | 05:27 |
| ross_ | Flannel: how do i get rid of them? the previous kernel versions | 05:27 |
| Flannel | ross_: You can remove them, yes. Use your favorite package manager to remove the older packages. | 05:27 |
| wols | victamower: he won't get an answer here anyways | 05:27 |
| SUSE-POWER | Flannel: Error: "ops" is not a valid command. | 05:27 |
| grtessman | danbhfive, ok but this is all automatic with the wubi isnt it? | 05:27 |
| Flannel | ross_: Its usually a good idea to keep one old, known good version. | 05:27 |
| victamower | wols: oops, sorry :) | 05:27 |
| ross_ | Flannel: why's that | 05:27 |
| Angela_Smith | someone suggested that I tweak Xorg file... I have no idea where that is, dose it have the mouse speed that I can tweak? Thanks :) | 05:27 |
| wols | SUSE-POWER: are you a bot? | 05:27 |

| StephenZ | Apparently. | 05:28 |
| ross_ | Flannel: where is the favorite package manager located? | 05:28 |
| grtessman | danbhfive, I am pretty sure I never selected amd options during install | 05:28 |
| victamower | matt: how do you mean it just comes back? when you try to re-install it it gets re-installed? | 05:28 |
| matt___ | no, it shows up as having unmet dependencies | 05:28 |
| matt___ | as though it's never removed | 05:28 |
| Flannel | ross_: Because sometimes new versions of the kernel have bugs that don't show up for a bit (and then you need an old, working version, until it gets fixed) | 05:28 |
| wols | !emt64 | grtessman | 05:28 |
| ubottu | Factoid emt64 not found | 05:28 |
| grtessman | danbhfive, so is it safe for me to try the amd options? | 05:28 |
| matt___ | (to victamower) sorrf | 05:28 |
| grtessman | wols, what does that mean? | 05:28 |
| ross_ | Flannel: ok | 05:28 |
| victamower | matt: what package? | 05:28 |
| Angela_Smith | !mouse speed | 05:28 |
| ubottu | Factoid mouse speed not found | 05:28 |
| wols | grtessman: emt64 is the same as amd64. and the architecture is called amd64 since AMD was first | 05:28 |
| danbhfive | grtessman: I really dont know anything at all about wubi, except what it does generally | 05:28 |
| kiris | fdsgs | 05:28 |
| Flannel | ross_: "Your favorite package manager" is whichever package manager you prefer. Synaptic package manager is one thats fairly easy, System > Admin > Synaptic package manager | 05:29 |
| Flannel | ross_: and for a little tutorial on using it: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticHowto | 05:29 |
| kiris | !tracker-nautilus | 05:29 |
| ubottu | kiris: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 05:29 |
| matt___ | victamower: it's campcaster-station, i attempted to install it from a .deb and it had some unmet deps, so it left apt in a broken state | 05:29 |
| wols | grtessman: 32bit is called i386 and it works not only for intel cpus but amd athlons too | 05:29 |
| ross_ | Flannel: that's the only one that i know - there are other package handlers? | 05:29 |
| kiris | sigh | 05:29 |
| grtessman | wols, but my processors are intel - I used wubi to install ubuntu - does that mean I need to re-install it? | 05:29 |
| wols | grtessman: since you used wubi, I would | 05:29 |
| Flannel | ross_: There are, yes. Some command line ones, Adept is for KDE, etc. | 05:29 |
| victamower | matt: if it has unmet dependencies it won't install | 05:29 |
| matt___ | victamower: i've since added their repository, but no luck using their package either | 05:29 |
| matt___ | victamower: i know, i'm trying to remove it, it's gunked up the works, i can't do anything with apt or dpkg | 05:30 |
| wols | grtessman: amd64 is fine tho. but you shouldn't use a 64bit distro unless you really know what you are doing AND have more than 4GB RAM that you really need | 05:30 |
| Zeker | damnit, everyone in the #nvidia chan is dead | 05:30 |
| ross_ | Flannel: i am in the synaptic package manager, now how can i go about removing the previous kernel versions | 05:30 |
| grtessman | wols, danbhfive - so the question remains, what should I be using for my dual core intel processors? I'd assume not amd | 05:30 |
| victamower | matt: so is the problem you want to install this unsupported package, or you want to remove it and go back to the way things were? | 05:30 |
| Angela_Smith | !mouse sensitivity | 05:30 |
| ubottu | Angela_Smith: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 05:30 |
| bubblegumtate | what's the easiest way to make a custom keyboard layout in ubuntu (8.04) I just want to swap the various types of brackets ("()" -> "[]" ->"{}" ->"()") | 05:30 |
| wols | grtessman: 32bit ubuntu | 05:30 |
| StephenZ | Flannel: You going to be around for a little while, and would you mind if I preferred to ask a few questions in PM, to make it easier to read? | 05:30 |
| danbhfive | grtessman: 32bit, long story short, 32bit | 05:30 |
| matt___ | victamower: for now i want to completely remove it | 05:30 |
| victamower | matt: remove their repos from /etc/apt/sources.lists and run apt-get update | 05:30 |
| grtessman | wols, I have 4GB ram and dual core 2.2ghz processors | 05:30 |
| spoonman | !wubi | 05:30 |
| ubottu | Wubi is an Ubuntu installer for Windows users that allows you to install and uninstall Ubuntu like a Windows application, in a simple and safe way. http://wubi-installer.org/support.php for troubleshooting. Please file bugs at http://launchpad.net/wubi/+filebug. | 05:30 |
| wols | grtessman: 32bit then | 05:30 |
| victamower | *sources.list | 05:31 |
| Flannel | StephenZ: sure, I'll be around for most of the next few hours at least | 05:31 |
| matt___ | victamower: done | 05:31 |
| spoonman | i believe wubi installs on an NTFS partition -- it's not a standard deployment | 05:31 |
| grtessman | wols and danbhfive,... wow, ok - maybe that's not an option in wubi. I'll have to delete and re-install and check it out again. But certainly I learned a lot, and this is probably the core of my problems. | 05:31 |
| StephenZ | Flannel: Thanks; I'll be scuttling back along to ask those questions in just a few moments. :) | 05:31 |
| victamower | matt: apt should be happy now, right? | 05:32 |
| wols | grtessman: it has nothing to do with wubi. but do not use wubi | 05:32 |
| grtessman | wols, ok why? | 05:33 |
| matt___ | victamower: no, now it complains that it can't find an archive for the broken package when i run "apt-get -f install" | 05:33 |
| ross_ | Flannel: i am in the synaptic package manager, now how can i go about removing the previous kernel versions | 05:33 |
| spoonman | ah, from wikipedia: "Since Wubi installs Ubuntu on the same file partition as Windows, Ubuntu may see a slight degradation in performance over time due to FAT32/NTFS file fragmentation, which could be alleviated via defragging the disk." | 05:33 |
| ragsagar | !fool | 05:33 |
| ubottu | Factoid fool not found | 05:33 |
| wols | because wubi installs on a big file on a ntfs partition | 05:33 |
| Flannel | ross_: Just mark the packages for complete removal. The packages will be "linux-image-[version]" so, search for "linux-image" and you'll get a listing | 05:33 |
| grtessman | ok, but it's on it's own disk/controller | 05:34 |
| spoonman | it's generally recommend to install ubuntu from an ISO burned to a CD-R/W | 05:34 |
| spoonman | the wubi installation is more of a test platform than a long-term solution | 05:34 |
| Flannel | grtessman: If you're putting it on its own disk, why use wubi? | 05:34 |
| ross_ | Flannel: what exactly is a kernel anyways? | 05:34 |
| numan | i am having problem with display after upgrade to hardy heron? | 05:34 |
| wols | ross_: linux is your kernel. the OS itself, the core part of it | 05:35 |
| grtessman | Flannel, because I was checking out ubuntu for starters and because I didnt want to screw up my windows install. | 05:35 |
| Flannel | ross_: A kernel is... what does all the hard work of the OS. | 05:35 |
| moosepants | Hi team - any ideas if/when Subversion 1.5 will be available as an update through the repos? | 05:35 |
| wols | numan: what videocard, what drivers? | 05:35 |
| wols | moosepants: when it'S ready and, sooner if you help | 05:35 |
| grtessman | Is it easy to install ubuntu with ISO for dual boot options? | 05:35 |
| numan | my video card is nvidia and i tried new drivers | 05:35 |
| Flannel | moosepants: Intrepid | 05:35 |
| wols | numan: which "new drivers" | 05:35 |
| spoonman | grtessman, yes | 05:36 |
| ross_ | Flannel: what is the "hard work" of the OS | 05:36 |
| grtessman | ok, then I will try it | 05:36 |
| Blaqlight | lol | 05:36 |
| ross_ | Flannel: clarify please | 05:36 |
| gotamatw | After installed the updates I can login on any thin client. Can anyone help, please? Any howto or links? | 05:36 |
| moosepants | Flannel: Serious? It won't be released on Hardy? | 05:36 |
| === Charitwo is now known as kirby | ||
| matt___ | victamower: any other thoughts? | 05:36 |
| grtessman | and so you guys are saying definately stick with intel 32 bit ? | 05:36 |
| numan | actually i upgraded from gutsy gibbon to hardy heron | 05:36 |
| SeaPhor | grtessman, extremely easy,,, | 05:36 |
| wols | moosepants: hardy is released and done. | 05:36 |
| numan | after that my display is not working? | 05:36 |
| wols | numan: that doesn't answer the question | 05:36 |
| wols | numan: answer me | 05:36 |
| === kirby is now known as Charitwo | ||
| grtessman | Awesome, I'll give it a shot then. Thank you guys for your help and patience. | 05:36 |
| Flannel | moosepants: I'm 96% sure that it won't be. The 4% is due to some other oddities that have deviated for Hardy. | 05:36 |
| wols | numan: dpkg -l |grep nvidia | 05:37 |
| spoonman | the default install has a boot loader that automatically loads Ubuntu after about 10 seconds, unless you press a key | 05:37 |
| numan | actually i am not sure which driver is it using? | 05:37 |
| spoonman | from that boot loader menu, you can select ubuntu or windows | 05:37 |
| wols | !nvidia | numan | 05:37 |
| ubottu | numan: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 05:37 |
| Flannel | moosepants: But yes, Ubuntu freezes versions of things, so Hardy will always have version X of something. | 05:37 |
| numan | now everytime i get out of range error for monitor | 05:37 |
| grtessman | spoonman, sweet - then no reason to use wubi | 05:37 |
| Flannel | ross_: All the stuff you'd expect an OS to do. Disk stuff, peripheral stuff, drivers, etc. | 05:37 |
| SeaPhor | grtessman, extremely easy,,, from live cd | 05:37 |
| spoonman | wubi just makes it easy to test the system for hardware compatibility and things like that | 05:38 |
| victamower | matt: I think there's an option like --fix-packages or something | 05:38 |
| ross_ | Flannel: i see | 05:38 |
| ross_ | Flannel: thanks for making me understand | 05:38 |
| matt___ | victamower: for what app? | 05:38 |
| grtessman | ok, one more thing.. my laptop came originally with WIndows Vista Ultimate.. and I had to do slipstreaming to get my hard drive drivers in windows XP install to install XP. Ultimate is 64 bit, and I have dual core 2.2 ghz intel processors with 4gb ram. So you guys think I still should go 32 bit ubuntu? | 05:39 |
| victamower | matt: one of the apt- commands | 05:39 |
| wols | matt___: what output does dpkg give you when you try to remove | 05:39 |
| === kumarphilly is now known as I | ||

| moosepants | Flannel: Are there any docs around which might detail which prefixes, defaults etc that were used for the SVN build that is available on the repo? I would like to make a package that updates the version used across our office... | 05:39 |
| wols | grtessman: YES | 05:39 |
| spoonman | grtessman, all you need to do is go into your BIOS and put your CD-ROM drive at the top of the boot priority list | 05:39 |
| spoonman | you need to basically boot from the Ubuntu install CD | 05:39 |
| wols | moosepants: svn source in the /debian directory | 05:39 |
| phaedral | install to macbook pro went w/o a hitch, until I tried to connect to net | 05:39 |

| Ferbis | So after running numerous versions of Ubuntu on my old Athlon 800 Mhz box, I decided to snag a $500 Dell Inspiron loaded with Ubuntu 7.10. | 07:55 |
| Ferbis | I wondered "Why not version 8.04". So I merrily went about the process of upgrading 7.10 to 8.04. The result of numerous attempts at upgrading online, from CD (iso download), liveDVD only resulted resulted in a screen full of script reporting "items" frozen. | 07:55 |
| Ferbis | Dell doesn't support the 8.04 upgrade. | 07:55 |

| tarelerulz | alnayyir , You mean use the usb hard drive like you would an installer cd ? | 08:03 |
| Xavura | i.e. I press the caps lock, it takes like half a second to actually work so I end up typing two caps when I want one | 08:03 |
| Xavura | and it's only on Ubuntu | 08:04 |
| Xavura | this same keyboard doesn't do it on Windows | 08:04 |

| eric_noob | hi, weird question (I think i am really missing something here). I am on 8.04, and I have firefox 3, beta 5 - how do I upgrade to the final release, I don't know what to do with the file from firefox.com and apt-get tells me i have the latest version??? | 08:40 |
| cwillu | eric_noob, just use the repository | 08:40 |
| ionutz_ | is not work the rain effect | 08:40 |
| ionutz_ | water effect * | 08:40 |
| eric_noob | you mean apt-get/syaptic? it tells me i already have the latest version, i did apt-get update too, anything else I need to do? | 08:41 |
| spoonman | eric_noob, Applications > Add/Remove, then search for firefox | 08:41 |
| ionutz_ | why doesnt work? | 08:41 |
| cwillu | eric_noob, it'll get updated automatically when it's packaged and everything, in the mean time, you'll just have more problems if you install it via getfirefox | 08:42 |

| dacubuntu | idn: just wonderin, mine dusnt work ... atleast the port doesnt | 09:28 |
| iDN | dacubuntu: If the port doesn't work, nothin' will work. :D | 09:28 |
| dacubuntu | tarele: thats the issue, id much rather reboot to windows than mess arnd for half n hour | 09:28 |
| dacubuntu | idn: port doesnt work in ubuntu only | 09:29 |
| Xehanort | will changing my SATA from IDE to RAID effect me when I run windows? | 09:29 |
| dacubuntu | alano: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading | 09:29 |
| DistroJockey | Hali_303, what sort of icons did you have? | 09:29 |
| iDN | dacubuntu: Huh. Lemme look into it, because I've just noticed my mic does't work either. :) | 09:29 |
| TZander | hi, is there a packager around that could provide updated packages for vpnc (its quite a bit ahead in version in debian for some time). | 09:29 |
| Hali_303 | DistroJockey: the usual ones.. text files, trashbin, etc. now nothing is on the desktop it is 100% empty | 09:29 |
| tarelerulz | dacubuntu , reboot into windows if you wish . Haha windows is not the bad guy. I mean I do just that windows I don't feel like doing work. in fact If I could get yahoo messanger for Linux . I would never go back | 09:30 |
| dacubuntu | well i run win on vbox anyway.......... but i just need the mic for skype anyway | 09:30 |
| Hali_303 | DistroJockey: they all just suddenly disappeared (the exact cause I cannot recall, I guess it was after some update..) | 09:31 |
| === arashO|o is now known as arashO|away | ||
| dacubuntu | 2 reasons i have a proper windows installation: 1. iphone syncing 2. voice calls :P | 09:31 |
| DistroJockey | Hali_303, well, by default Hardy has no icons on the desktop. But you can add Computer, Home, Network and Trash. As for text files and such, they would have been in the Home folder for your previous user | 09:31 |
| Xehanort | I had to change my BIOS from IDE to RAID so that ubuntu would run without me typing irqpoll noprobe=ata4, I was wondering if this will effect me when I run Windows. | 09:32 |
| tarelerulz | I would seal my soul for Yahoo messanger on Linux . I mean though about vmware to get yahoo. | 09:32 |
| RabidWeezle | pidgin? | 09:32 |
| Hali_303 | DistroJockey: but when I dist-upgraded, all the icons stayed in place | 09:32 |
| fixthemedia | d4rkmonkey, ok i have changed the xorg file. what do i do next? | 09:32 |
| RabidWeezle | :/ | 09:32 |
| RabidWeezle | tarelerulz, pidgin does all the major messengers... | 09:33 |
| DistroJockey | Hali_303, to add Trash ext. to the Desktop, do an Alt+F2 and run gconf-editor , then navigate to apps - nautilus - desktop | 09:33 |
| RabidWeezle | tarelerulz, unless you are looking for cam support or somethin | 09:33 |
| === eclipse_mint is now known as eclipse_mint|awa | ||
| d4rkmonkey | fixthemedia, try restarting your xorg (make sure your tablet is plugged in because mine only works if xorg starts with my tablet plugged in) | 09:33 |
| Hali_303 | DistroJockey: when hardy came out.. beginning of May. and the disappearance of desktop icons only happened a 2-3 days ago | 09:33 |
| m1r | DistroJockey: tnx | 09:33 |
| RabidWeezle | tarelerulz but for actual "messenging" pidgin works fine ^_^ | 09:33 |
| DistroJockey | m1r, no problem | 09:33 |
| alano | how can I upgrade my ubunto 5.0 | 09:33 |
| tarelerulz | Yes, RabidWeezle ,but not voice or any of advanced feature of yahoo messanger . Text is cool ,but it can get old . | 09:33 |
| DistroJockey | Hali_303, ohh, not sure what would have caused that | 09:34 |
| Xehanort | can anyone please answer me? | 09:34 |
| fixthemedia | d4rkmonkey, its always plugged in and i rebooted my pc | 09:34 |
| cjk | hi, i would like to start a cron every 2 minutes but starting at 1 (1,3,5..) not at 0 (0,2,4...). any idea? | 09:34 |
| RabidWeezle | tarelerulz, have you tried it in wine? | 09:34 |
| Hali_303 | DistroJockey: I've already tried that, but show desktop has already a tick there | 09:34 |
| DistroJockey | Hali_303, hmm | 09:34 |
| d4rkmonkey | fixthemedia, k, does it work any better after you rebooted your PC? | 09:34 |
| iDN | dacubuntu: Enable mic boost through the tray icon's edit menu. :) | 09:34 |
| Zaiden | How do I give myself root access to copy some files into a folder without having to use the cp command? | 09:34 |
| dacubuntu | idn: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/ToshibaEquiumA110 ... it sez here his mic n headphoen works.. .trying the mic boost | 09:35 |
| fixthemedia | d4rkmonkey, i still am having to drag it across the screen | 09:35 |
| dacubuntu | what drvr are u using? idn? | 09:35 |
| iDN | dacubuntu: I think i use the alsa. I'm not sure. I'll check now. | 09:35 |
| DistroJockey | Hali_303, can you see any contents in a terminal if you type: ls -al ~/Desktop | 09:35 |
| iDN | Yep, i'm using the alsa, dacubuntu | 09:35 |
| RabidWeezle | tarelerulz, there's also http://in.docs.yahoo.com/messenger/download/unix.html | 09:35 |
| tarelerulz | RadidWeezle , I have try about every thing I can think of to get it working. Wine , altertive yahoo client for windows in wine, gyach and I have yet to try some thing like vmware. If I have to run windows in vmware to get yahoo then I will do that. | 09:35 |
| dacubuntu | what! theres yaho for ubuntu!? | 09:36 |
| RabidWeezle | for linux... | 09:36 |
| RabidWeezle | yes | 09:36 |
| RabidWeezle | has been for years | 09:36 |
| dacubuntu | didnt know that | 09:36 |
| dacubuntu | i looked around a bit | 09:36 |
| dacubuntu | i dont mind pidgin tho... | 09:36 |
| Hali_303 | DistroJockey: sure I see them there, also see them in Places->Desktop | 09:36 |
| dacubuntu | but if i get my mic working ill need yahoo | 09:36 |
| skillet | pidgin is way better | 09:36 |
| tarelerulz | RabidWeezle , I have try that and it is old. I think I have try to install it . | 09:36 |
| RabidWeezle | I prefer pidgin myself | 09:36 |
| dacubuntu | got it on wine now | 09:36 |
| DistroJockey | Hali_303, very odd | 09:36 |
| iDN | dacubuntu: I don't use both. I use meebo.com. :) | 09:37 |
| fixthemedia | d4rkmonkey, i didnt modify the "serverlayout" maybe that is the problem? | 09:37 |
| Hali_303 | DistroJockey: that is what I told myself.. I hoped that after some restart or upgrade they come back, but they did not :/ | 09:37 |
| ActionParsnip | hey all, does anyone use webmin?? | 09:37 |
| Pockey | hi , i have a powerbook, installed hardy, i cant make my microphone work.... anybody can help? | 09:37 |
| DistroJockey | Hali_303, try changing your wallpaper maybe | 09:37 |
| dacubuntu | yeah well i need voice calls! | 09:37 |
| tarelerulz | Well, thank god Google talk has linux client that can talk to windows user or I would go crazy | 09:37 |
| dacubuntu | pockey: same here | 09:37 |
| RabidWeezle | personally, I don't do voice and video hehe. I got a cell phone with voice, and I don't care about sharing my messy house with other people on cam lol | 09:37 |
| iDN | I like to put my information in the cloud, dacubuntu. it's very useful. :) | 09:37 |
| DistroJockey | Hali_303, apart from that, I really have no idea | 09:37 |
| Hali_303 | DistroJockey: the wallpaper is the default hardy one with the bird on it | 09:38 |
| harris | Guys,, why is it when I changed my Appearance Preferences Visual Effects to Normal, my minimize,maximize and close button in window dissapear? | 09:38 |
| DistroJockey | Hali_303, yeah, but it's worth changing just to see if it does change | 09:38 |
| d4rkmonkey | fixthemedia, that could quite possibly be the issue... Do you have wacom-tools installed? | 09:38 |
| RabidWeezle | course really, I don't do alot of messaging anymore, I used to, but now since I'm married, it might get me in alot of trouble lol | 09:38 |
| Hali_303 | DistroJockey: ahhhh got it! | 09:38 |
| ActionParsnip | harris: did you lose the top bar too or just the buttons? | 09:39 |
| fixthemedia | d4rkmonkey: how can i check or try and re-install? | 09:39 |
| harris | ActionParsnip: Yes! the top bar, i lose it...... | 09:39 |
| Pockey | dacubuntu: so, no way to make it work? | 09:39 |
| Hali_303 | DistroJockey: I once again tried the gconf key editor, I've un-ticked the "Show desktop" key, then exited. Then started the app again, ticked the "Swow desktop" key again, and now everything appeared! | 09:39 |
| dacubuntu | harris: system > preferences > advanced desktop effects > then enable window decoration | 09:39 |
| harris | ActionParsnip: the TOP BAR, it disappear | 09:39 |
| iDN | dacubuntu: did my trick work for you? | 09:40 |
| dacubuntu | pockey: still trying, asked the same question.. im running on toshiba tho | 09:40 |
| ActionParsnip | harris: you runing compiz or emerald? | 09:40 |
| simmerz | does anyone find that skype uses 100% CPU time, and also refuses to quit unless killed by killall -9 skype? | 09:40 |
| dacubuntu | i can find the mic boost thing | 09:40 |
| Hali_303 | DistroJockey: thank you for your help! | 09:40 |
| d4rkmonkey | fixthemedia, sudo apt-get install wacom-tools and it'll either install it, or tell you that you have the newest version. After that if it doesn't work, restart your computer. If it still doesn't work, then I have no idea how to get it to work | 09:40 |
| tarelerulz | The part I don't like is the lack of support for im networks on addvance feature like web cams , voice , file sharing etc. The windows client work great ,but the linux one it i seem not to be any that can do the same as the windows clients. | 09:40 |
| harris | ActionParsnip: no, just plain... ubuntu Gutsy... :) | 09:40 |
| DistroJockey | Hali_303, excellent, glad to help | 09:40 |
| Pockey | dacubuntu: it's annoying... i tried a lot of clients, wengo, ekiga, gizmo5 | 09:40 |
| DistroJockey | Hali_303, and you're welcome :) | 09:40 |
| dacubuntu | its not the client | 09:41 |
| ActionParsnip | harris: then you need <name of windows manager> --replace | 09:41 |
| dacubuntu | try messing around with system > pref > sound | 09:41 |
| ActionParsnip | harris: like kde is kwin --replace | 09:41 |
| ActionParsnip | does anyone know the gnome equivelant please? | 09:41 |
| Pockey | dacubuntu: ic... i did , system>pref>found... | 09:41 |
| fixthemedia | d4rkmonkey, i got this error E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable) | 09:42 |
| fixthemedia | E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it? | 09:42 |
| tarelerulz | Pockey , what did you think of wengo, ekiga ? | 09:42 |
| DistroJockey | ActionParsnip, I believe it's metacity --replace | 09:42 |
| Pockey | dacubuntu: i spent two days on it already, i also changed the open volumn control | 09:42 |
| harris | ActionParsnip: What? will i do? | 09:42 |
| ActionParsnip | harris: try metacity --replacelike DistroJockey said | 09:42 |
| iDN | dacubuntu: you can find, or can't find it? :( | 09:42 |
| ActionParsnip | metacity --replace | 09:42 |
| ActionParsnip | cheers DistroJockey | 09:42 |
| Flynsarmy | how do you install wxwidgets on ubuntu? | 09:42 |
| Pockey | tarelerulz: frankly speaking, if i m not using PPC, i prefer skype, the voice is the best so far i can get | 09:42 |
| DistroJockey | ActionParsnip, no problem | 09:43 |
| dacubuntu | idn: cant | 09:43 |
| dacubuntu | the mic boost option | 09:43 |
| RabidWeezle | skype is great! | 09:43 |
| ActionParsnip | harris: any good? | 09:43 |
| Pockey | tarelerulz: 2nd, wengo, then akiga | 09:43 |
| d4rkmonkey | fixthemedia, is anything installing/updating? If so, you'll have to wait before running apt-get | 09:43 |
| harris | ActionParsnip: metacity? DistroJockey? what is it a Theme? or should i download it? | 09:43 |
| RabidWeezle | skype is on soo many things now, it's insane, skype wifi cell phones, psp, pc, linux... | 09:43 |
| DistroJockey | !metacity | 09:43 |
| ubottu | Factoid metacity not found | 09:43 |
| Pockey | RabidWeezle: but not PPC :( | 09:43 |
| ActionParsnip | harris: open a terminal and type the command | 09:43 |
| DistroJockey | :( | 09:43 |
| RabidWeezle | no? | 09:43 |
| ActionParsnip | harris: metacity --replace & | 09:43 |
| RabidWeezle | crazy | 09:43 |
| Pockey | RabidWeezle: no, no no | 09:44 |
| simmerz | RabidWeezle: but it doesn't like my laptop. uses the entire of one core all the time, and won't die unless I kill -9 | 09:44 |
| RabidWeezle | :( | 09:44 |
| RabidWeezle | that sucks | 09:44 |
| Pockey | RabidWeezle: anyway, I can't make my PPC mic work... so no matter what client, it wont work | 09:44 |
| fixthemedia | d4rkmonkey, actually no. I dont have anything else running besides pigeon, firefox, and terminal | 09:44 |
| RabidWeezle | that's no good :( | 09:44 |
| cosmo | I am trying to get a desktop shortcut working for running WoW using wine for the command I have wine /home/cosmo/World of Warcraft/WoW.exe is this correct? | 09:44 |
| iDN | dacubuntu: do you see the mic icon on your system tray (next to the watch and the shut down button)? click it, then go to switches> edit> preferences> check the Mic Boost box. then go back to switches. and check the boost box there. :) | 09:44 |
| Pockey | dacubuntu: if u found a way, please let me know... | 09:44 |
| tarelerulz | Pockey , I never got Ekiga to work right and when I did never found anyone to talk to . I was looking for replacement for yahoo messanger . I love open voice chat rooms and meting random people like I did on yahoo. Voice is great . I don't spell that great. | 09:44 |
| harris | ActionParsnip: whhhaaa I changed again to normal visual effects I can't see a thing under terminal.... what will I type? metacity --replace & | 09:45 |
| DistroJockey | harris, ActionParsnip : If that doesn't work, you can try the following in a terminal: sudo killall gnome-panel && gnome-panel | 09:45 |
| ActionParsnip | cosmo: no its wine ~/.wine/c_drive/etc/etc | 09:45 |
| ActionParsnip | harris: yes, you need to type that command | 09:45 |
| RabidWeezle | I don't miss yahoo chat too much, last time I went there it was nothing but bots and trolls :/ | 09:45 |
| Ahadiel | cosmo, or even wine "C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Wow.exe" | 09:45 |
| ActionParsnip | harris: in the terminal | 09:45 |
| ActionParsnip | cosmo: depends where you installed it on your fake C partition | 09:46 |
| DistroJockey | harris, or via Alt+F2 | 09:46 |
| DrLam1 | Oiy... hi guys | 09:46 |
| d4rkmonkey | fixthemedia, not sure why it would say that then... | 09:46 |
| cosmo | I didnt I copied it over to ubuntu | 09:46 |
| RabidWeezle | usally it's ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/whatever | 09:46 |
| ActionParsnip | DrLam1: hi | 09:46 |
| ActionParsnip | cosmo: copied it? | 09:47 |
| Pockey | tarelerulz: i only talk to people i know, so skype is rather good, ekiga.... i found it's not so userfriendly | 09:47 |
| cosmo | copied the whole folder to my /home/user folder | 09:47 |
| RabidWeezle | Pockey, I need a microphone lol, I remember when every computer and soundcard came with those cheap ones... | 09:47 |
| ActionParsnip | cosmo: i dont think that works any due to the relationship with the windows directory | 09:48 |
| RabidWeezle | my laptop has a mic built in though that works good | 09:48 |
| RabidWeezle | for skype anyway | 09:48 |
| DistroJockey | cosmo, the path would be: /home/cosmo/World\ of\ Warcraft/WoW.exe | 09:48 |
| fixthemedia | d4rkmonkey, darnit! well thanks for your time. Nice support for sure. | 09:48 |
| dacubuntu | no bulit in on mine | 09:48 |
| RabidWeezle | I wouldn't record a hit single on it | 09:48 |
| dacubuntu | hehe | 09:48 |
| Pockey | no built in on mine neither | 09:48 |
| dacubuntu | i just need it for skype.. thats all i cudnt care abt anything else | 09:48 |
| tarelerulz | Pockey I do talk to my freinds I know too. Plus I wanted to fine some thing that both windows and Linux had client that did voice so they would not have to change anything. Empathy does voice with gtalk windows clients. If it had file sharing I would be set | 09:49 |
| dacubuntu | *nt | 09:49 |
| RabidWeezle | I got a dell c610 that does :/ | 09:49 |

| ActionParsnip | harris: what graphics card you got? | 09:49 |
| RabidWeezle | ioioio, what do you mean reset grub? | 09:49 |
| RabidWeezle | ioioio, is your machine not booting anything? | 09:49 |
| DistroJockey | harris, you have a bottom bar still though? | 09:50 |
| harris | geforce 4 aopen.... hmmmmm i just installed the restricted drivers | 09:50 |
| ioioio | RabidWeezle: I've deleted the partition on which Ubuntu was installed. Now there's a GRUB error (Error 22), and I can't load Windows | 09:50 |
| solom | moin | 09:50 |
| ActionParsnip | harris: did you add the lines you need to your xorg.conf | 09:50 |
| dacubuntu | harris : probably the drivers? | 09:50 |
| RabidWeezle | ioioio, yeah, you can't delete the ubuntu partition if you are using grub... | 09:50 |
| harris | hmmmmm maybe the drivers | 09:50 |
| dacubuntu | since its the only update that would effect it | 09:50 |
| Pockey | tarelerulz: does it work on PPC? | 09:50 |
| dacubuntu | try removing it | 09:50 |
| ioioio | RabidWeezle: Yeah, now I've learnt that | 09:50 |
| ioioio | But how can I load windows?^ | 09:50 |
| harris | wait I'll be back with you guys........ I'll be installing again the driver | 09:50 |
| RabidWeezle | ioioio, it looks to /boot/grub for the list of what to boot | 09:50 |
| === DrLam1 is now known as DrLame | ||

| ioioio | RabidWeezle: Where? On the NTFS partition there's nothing | 09:51 |
| RabidWeezle | on the linux partition you deleted :( | 09:51 |
| ActionParsnip | harris: add Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True" to Section "Screen" | 09:51 |
| ioioio | RabidWeezle: I've deleted it, so there's no partition! | 09:51 |
| fixthemedia | d4rkmonkey, i have help a little here and there on the fourms. I used synaptic to re-install wacom-tools | 09:51 |
| ioioio | Isn't there a way to reinstall grub and make windows load? | 09:51 |
| dacubuntu | im outta here... gnna search online for this | 09:51 |
| dacubuntu | thnx anyway guys | 09:52 |

| Xehanort | is 15G enough to do whatever a person would want to do on Ubuntu? | 09:53 |
| Pockey | tarelerulz: not really, otherwise, why would I switch to linux ;) | 09:53 |
| harris | ActionParsnip: okay im here already in xorg.conf | 09:54 |
| ActionParsnip | harris: ok then add the line | 09:54 |

| wittyphotons | i asked this in #windows also, but does anyone know what boot images i'd need to add to my win xp pro sp2 install cd (when burning in k3b)? | 09:55 |
| ActionParsnip | harris: read your xorg.conf | 09:55 |
| fixthemedia | d4rkmonkey, I made those last edits to the xorg file, and re-installed the wacom-tools and it seems to be working (havent used gimp yet) Thank you so much!!!!! | 09:56 |
| dacubuntu | pockey: still there? | 09:56 |
| dacubuntu | got it working! | 09:56 |
| ActionParsnip | where it says Section "Screen" you will see details about your graphics card, at the bottom of that, just above EndSection, Paste that line in | 09:56 |
| dacubuntu | pockey: ?! got my mic working | 09:56 |
| Pockey | dacubuntu: how? | 09:56 |
| dacubuntu | dont u have sound in preferences? | 09:56 |
| Pockey | dacubuntu: \(^0^)/ | 09:56 |
| Pockey | yes | 09:56 |
| Pockey | dacubuntu: wait... | 09:57 |
| tarelerulz | Pockey what is fun is coming windows you have all these chose go down and buy a program ,but you do have an idea how anything real works. then you go to Linux and you learn the hard way how it all works and just as much chose . Stuff my not like like it should ,but once it does you feel like you climbed Mnt everest haha | 09:57 |
| fixthemedia | d4arkmonkey, it was a must have for me and now I dont need to switch over to windows at all. (gimp and inkscape are good enough for what i use the wacom for) | 09:57 |
| dacubuntu | just use the pulse sound server as the capture device | 09:57 |
| fixthemedia | d4rkmonkey, so thanks again. | 09:57 |
| d4rkmonkey | fixthemedia, no problem, if you have any other problems with it I'll be on here for a while, and would be happy to try and help | 09:58 |
| harris | ActionParsnip: ok, then i'll save it ryt...... then test | 09:58 |
| Pockey | dacubuntu: wait, i m switching on my powerbook now, don't leave | 09:58 |
| dacubuntu | im not | 09:58 |
| ActionParsnip | harris: cool, id restart just to test. You need that line for nvidia cards. If you'd googled youd have seen that | 09:59 |
| wittyphotons | i asked this in #windows also, but does anyone know what boot images i'd need to add to my win xp pro sp2 install cd (when burning in k3b)? | 10:00 |

| pen | how do I force nautilus to generate video thumbnails? | 10:03 |
| DistroJockey | wittyphotons, I know of growisofs (not how to use it though) | 10:03 |
| gilbo | anyone around | 10:04 |
| gilbo | have a lil problem dont know how to fix | 10:04 |
| wittyphotons | DistroJockey, i'll check it out | 10:04 |
| DistroJockey | wittyphotons, I still don't think it will help you with what you need to put on the boot part of the CD though | 10:05 |

| wittyphotons | DistroJockey, well, i have a .iso of a bootable winxpprosp2 that i got from campus it | 10:05 |
| DistroJockey | wittyphotons, ahhhh! | 10:05 |
| gilbo | lol my second hard drive is showing up as scsi and its blocked dont know how to fix it | 10:05 |
| wittyphotons | DistroJockey, but i needed to add a driver because my sata hd isn't natively compatibly with win xp | 10:06 |
| DistroJockey | wittyphotons, just burn iso image | 10:06 |
| DistroJockey | wittyphotons, ohh | 10:06 |
| dacubuntu | dont add the driver before u install | 10:06 |
| Pockey | dacubuntu: it's on now, so , sounds in preferences | 10:06 |
| dacubuntu | ok | 10:06 |
| dacubuntu | pockey: choose capture device as pulse | 10:06 |
| Blade_Wizard_Fal | I am running Ubuntu 8, how can i check to see what drivers are being used for my graphics card? | 10:06 |
| wittyphotons | DistroJockey, yeah, and the only feasible way to get the driver installed is to slipstream it into the install cd. i can do it from a usb floppy as well, but i haven't had success today (err, yesterday) doing that, and i don't have the usb floppy drive available anymore. | 10:07 |
| dacubuntu | sorry imean pulse as capture device :P | 10:07 |
| Pockey | dacubuntu: under music and movies sounds playback? | 10:07 |
| dacubuntu | no | 10:07 |
| dacubuntu | audio conferencing | 10:08 |
| DistroJockey | wittyphotons, *nods* I can only suggest a bit of a look at www.bootdisk.com maybe there is something there | 10:08 |
| Pockey | dacubuntu: ok | 10:08 |
| dacubuntu | then Sound Capture | 10:08 |
| wittyphotons | DistroJockey, is that a legit site, do you know for a fact? | 10:08 |
| Pockey | dacubuntu: ok | 10:08 |
| dacubuntu | choose pulse... done? | 10:08 |
| ActionParsnip | wittyphotons: I can 2nd its legitimacy. Its awesome | 10:09 |
| Pockey | dacubuntu: yes, under audio conferencing: sound capture: pulse | 10:09 |
| Pockey | dacubuntu: done | 10:09 |
| dacubuntu | now it should work | 10:09 |
| dacubuntu | try it | 10:09 |
| DistroJockey | wittyphotons, no sure of the legalities, but it's been around for ages and MS hasn't shut it down, so I think it's ok | 10:09 |
| Pockey | dacubuntu: ok, let me try | 10:09 |
| disk_space | Blade_wizard_Fal - check your xorg.conf file. In a terminal type cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf or try lsmod | more | 10:09 |
| dacubuntu | try using applications >> sounds n vids >> sound recorder | 10:09 |
| gilbo | my second hard drive shows up but cannot mount | 10:10 |
| wittyphotons | DistroJockey, ActionParsnip, i'll look into this site; thanks! | 10:10 |

| magnetron | Pockey: which version of ubuntu are you using on your PPC? i'm about to buy an iBook G3 | 10:14 |
| tarelerulz | I think pidgin just go for text on bunch of network ,but not the advanced feature of the networks. Plus most of those network really don't help pidgin so it would be all reverse enginering | 10:14 |

| Virtual | Hello, I installed ubuntu hardy heron server edition, raid1 configuration 1 array with 2 disks 64 bit. I must have done something wrong by putting in the server deployment cd trying to install additional drivers because after I did this I got a kernel panic error. Since the software I wish to install works better on a 32 bit system I want to reformat both drives, reïnstall ubuntu but 32 bit. What is the best way to reformat the drives | 10:36 |

| dr_Willis | nyuu, there ya go. Not sure what codec does fourcc. I recall having issues with that befor also. I think i had to install the libfaad library? or perhaops i had to use the mplayer from the medibuntu repos | 12:40 |

| poningru | Story: it should just work iirc | 13:31 |
| dieterkonradrich | is there somebody who can help me with lyx | 13:31 |
| conor | sipior: The installer file is inside the XFi...file | 13:31 |
| poningru | Story: yeah check under hardware drivers or something under system->administrator | 13:31 |
| sipior | conor: right, that's why you used tar, to extract the files from that archive | 13:31 |
| Story | I'll try that thanks | 13:31 |
| sipior | conor: but you say it's already extracted, so you have a new directory in Desktop, right? | 13:31 |
| sipior | conor: probably a similar name to the tar file, but without the .tar.gz? | 13:32 |
| conor | sipior: XFiDrv_Linux_US-1.18 | 13:32 |
| berzerka | cosmo: sorry i was busy here at work, that looks like a serious failure to me, but have never encountered an error like this | 13:32 |
| sipior | conor: right, so try "cd XFiDrv_Linux_US-1.18" | 13:32 |
| sipior | conor: and then type "ls", and the ./install file should be listed | 13:33 |
| Reaper | DistroJockey: I did miss something...I think it's working now. | 13:33 |
| cosmo | hmmm | 13:33 |
| Reaper | It is updating, in the first place, inside the terminal. | 13:33 |
| conor | sipior: Woot, cd XFiDrv_Linux_US-1.18 it worked | 13:33 |
| Reaper | DistroJockey: The actions I just did is to update Wine inside my Add/Remove - Now I Can go there and downlaod the latest, as they said. | 13:34 |
| DistroJockey | Reaper, I did the adds but I didn't click the link. Instead I did a sudo apt-get update and then a sudo apt-get install wine | 13:34 |
| He3eK | hail ppl! | 13:34 |
| conor | sipior: dont I need a sudo command? | 13:34 |

| berzerka | cosmo, please provide a complete syslog, maybe there is something in the context of these lines which gives a clue. | 13:35 |
| sipior | conor: probably. there should be install instructions somewhere in the files in that directory | 13:35 |
| conor | Its working! | 13:35 |
| mary_lix | How can I lock the "edit menu" option in gnome to an user?? | 13:35 |

| Reaper | DistroJockey: okay followed your command, it's now downlading | 13:36 |
| mary_lix | How can I lock the "edit menu" option in gnome?? (right-click applications) | 13:36 |
| Reaper | Lovely, thank you DistroJockey ;) | 13:36 |

| sipior | conor: that's a good sign, congratulations. | 13:36 |

| conor | sipior: Thank you very much! | 13:36 |
| Reaper | DistroJockey: But yet, I must sometime get to know how to intsall Tar.bz2 files :P - or it's more likely needed? | 13:37 |
| Reaper | not needed* | 13:37 |

| Reaper | DistroJockey: Okay :) | 13:37 |
| sipior | conor: you'll need to install gcc. and probably a load of other stuff... | 13:37 |
| DistroJockey | Reaper, not need to so far on this install and it does all I need | 13:37 |
| unop | conor, you need to have the build-essential package installed | 13:37 |
| conor | Oh thank you, where can I find it? | 13:38 |
| WalloO | conor, synaptic | 13:38 |
| unop | conor, sudo apt-get install build-essential | 13:38 |
| He3eK | any 1 on SATA issue in 7.10? (can't mount my drive) | 13:38 |
| Reaper | DistroJockey: Okay :) | 13:38 |
| DistroJockey | Reaper, all decent installers come with a readme :) | 13:38 |
| Reaper | Aha...that's gotta be helpful. | 13:38 |
| WalloO | anybody tried linux PHC here? | 13:39 |

| m_newton | Hello! | 13:40 |
| berent | If I have a hardy CD and I want to upgrade from Gutsy to Hardy (not install it) is it possible to do it . | 13:40 |
| Reaper | I think so - so far I could set the basic tool I used to use on Windows, now more likely when I open windows, I feel like I'm on a certain PROGRAM using ubuntu. lol | 13:40 |
| DistroJockey | !hi | m_newton | 13:40 |
| ubottu | m_newton: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 13:40 |
| conor | sipior: Is there a way to repeat that without tryping it all again? | 13:40 |
| conor | typing* | 13:40 |
| m4cdaddy | conor, up key | 13:40 |
| WalloO | berent, try. If it'S possible, it will porpose it. If not, just stop the process before installing | 13:40 |
| m_newton | berent what are you asking | 13:40 |
| sipior | conor: try ctrl-R, and then typing the first few letters of the command you want... | 13:40 |
| conor | Thanks | 13:41 |
| DistroJockey | berent, did you put the disk in while running Gutsy? | 13:41 |
| rubydiamond | How to check whether port 587 is open or not? | 13:41 |
| berent | DistroJockey: yes | 13:41 |
| conor | sipior: Sorry, Im really new to this | 13:41 |
| m4cdaddy | rubydiamond, nmap localhost | 13:41 |
| DistroJockey | berent, no upgrade message then I guess? | 13:41 |
| WalloO | conor, or, you can put a ! just before writing the first letters of the commnand. It will use the last command starting with these letters | 13:41 |
| sipior | conor: nothing to be sorry for, you've got to start somewhere, yes? | 13:41 |
| rubydiamond | thanks m4cdaddy | 13:42 |
| berent | DistroJockey: nope. | 13:42 |
| WalloO | not letter, character is better I think... :0 | 13:42 |
| conor | sipior: Hehe I suppose, but thanks for all the help | 13:42 |
| m4cdaddy | Rubin, no problem | 13:42 |
| DistroJockey | berent, which CD you got? | 13:42 |
| m4cdaddy | wapz | 13:42 |
| berent | DistroJockey: but when i run update manager it showed. | 13:42 |
| m4cdaddy | rubydiamond, no problem | 13:42 |
| danbhfive | hey guys, I have an idea for ubuntu, which chat room can I talk to people about it, offtopic, +1, or motu? | 13:42 |
| berent | DistroJockey: Hardy | 13:42 |
| conor | sipior: I had a gut full of windows yesterday. so ubuntu was installed | 13:42 |
| DistroJockey | berent, as in Desktop or Alternate | 13:42 |
| jrib | danbhfive: I'd start in -offtopic | 13:42 |
| conor | WalloO: Thanks | 13:42 |
| danbhfive | jrib: ok, thanks | 13:43 |
| berent | DistroJockey: Desktop CD. | 13:43 |
| halvor | hello | 13:43 |
| WalloO | conor: you can use the up and down arrow to browse your command history too. | 13:43 |
| m4cdaddy | hello halvor | 13:43 |
| tedjo007 | mimie_seventeen | 13:43 |
| halvor | can i ask for some help about apt-get? | 13:44 |
| m4cdaddy | halvor, sure ill help you | 13:44 |
| rubydiamond | m4cdaddy, how do I open port 587? | 13:44 |
| m4cdaddy | rubydiamond, uhm i think you can socket it? | 13:44 |
| DistroJockey | berent, not to sure on the upgrade. I prefer/recommend not to upgrade usually :) | 13:44 |
| rubydiamond | hmm | 13:44 |
| m4cdaddy | rubydiamond, i think its supposed to open if you make a connection to it | 13:44 |
| WalloO | conor: on thing usefull. If you are in aterminal or text mode and you xant to scroll the text, you can use shift+pageUP or shift+pageDown | 13:44 |
| berent | DistroJockey: I dont want to lose the things which i have now. | 13:44 |
| rubydiamond | m4cdaddy, http://pastie.org/221071 | 13:45 |
| WalloO | berent, I'm ok with diskjokey... upgrade is bad... Start with a new fresh install | 13:45 |
| conor | WalloO: Will that get rid of this wall of text I get? | 13:45 |
| DistroJockey | berent, well, I hope you have a backup which ever way you go | 13:45 |
| rubydiamond | I am not able to send email | 13:45 |
| WalloO | conor, it will scrall, like if you use a scrall bar | 13:45 |
| c0ffee | hi, i have several mount points in fstab with option noauto,user | 13:46 |
| m4cdaddy | rubydiamond, those are the open ports | 13:46 |
| c0ffee | how can i configure that these show up in nautilus, even if they're not mounted? | 13:46 |
| WalloO | conor: do you know you can copy paste by selecting a text with the mouse, then just press the mouse wheel button to past it? | 13:46 |
| rubydiamond | but m4cdaddy 587 is not | 13:46 |
| conor | sipior: It failed again! | 13:46 |
| sipior | conor: more specifically? | 13:47 |
| Pici | rubydiamond: Why do you need that port open to send email? | 13:47 |
| Dedi | does someone know a tool to edit .hid files? | 13:47 |
| m4cdaddy | rubydiamond, you need to connect to something that makes it open or write a C program to open it | 13:47 |
| rubydiamond | Pici, I think I am not getting it | 13:47 |
| conor | sipior: Is there away to paste a wall of text without being banned? | 13:47 |
| sipior | !pastebin | conor | 13:47 |
| ubottu | conor: 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) | 13:47 |
| Pici | conor: Use a pastebin | 13:48 |
| rubydiamond | m4cdaddy, okay will try to debug why email is not getting sent | 13:48 |
| WalloO | c0ffee, comment the line then restart. It may show up, and it may be mounted only when you click on it (this the case with hardy heron) | 13:48 |
| conor | Thank you | 13:48 |
| Leefmc | Question: Does Segment fault ring a bell to anyone? The past 2 days i've had instability every time i boot ubuntu.. | 13:48 |

| poosenki | is there any way to run macros written in vba for microsoft excel while in ubuntu? | 13:49 |
| berzerka | cosmo: is sdb the external USB drive? | 13:49 |
| WalloO | Leefmc, segmentation fault is probably bevause your software read or write in memory where it can'T it'S a software problem | 13:49 |
| === tofaffy_ is now known as tofaffy|lappy | ||
| unop | poosenki, i dont think so | 13:49 |
| cosmo | yes | 13:49 |
| m4cdaddy | rubydiamond, are you using sendmail? | 13:49 |
| StephenZ[asleep] | Poosenki: You might try running Excel through WinE. | 13:49 |
| filthpig | Can resizing a partition affect other partitions on the hard drive? | 13:50 |
| rubydiamond | nope | 13:50 |
| rubydiamond | I am using ruby library | 13:50 |
| c0ffee | WalloO, in /etc/fstab? | 13:50 |
| rubydiamond | action_mailer_tls | 13:50 |
| WalloO | poosenki, try with openoffice... But I don't know | 13:50 |
| Leefmc | WalloO: What is generally done to fix it? | 13:50 |
| rubydiamond | and smtp settings | 13:50 |
| StephenZ[asleep] | Filthpig: It always does - at least one other partition. Think of it as walls along the garden of your disk. | 13:50 |
| Leefmc | WalloO: I'm already planning to format in a couple days so i can put /home on a partition of its own | 13:50 |
| cosmo | berzerka, yes | 13:50 |
| poosenki | WalloO: thanks, but it doesn't seem to run it | 13:50 |
| StephenZ[asleep] | Filthpig: Changing the sizes of partitions moves the walls. | 13:50 |
| poosenki | StephenZ[asleep]: alright, thanks, i'll give that i shot | 13:50 |
| L|NUX | hello | 13:51 |
| WalloO | c0ffee, yes. My vista ntfs disk is not mounted nor in /etc/fsta. However, i can see it in nautulus, and it's mounted when I go in it | 13:51 |
| berzerka | cosmo: hmm you should definitively check wether that drive is dying. i would guess so. | 13:51 |
| L|NUX | can some one tell me why i keep getting this | 13:51 |
| L|NUX | root@ubuntu:/var/lib# chmod 775 mysql | 13:51 |
| L|NUX | chmod: changing permissions of `mysql': Operation not permitted | 13:51 |
| rubydiamond | lol it works | 13:51 |
| rubydiamond | thanks ppl for awesome help | 13:51 |
| berzerka | cosmo: look at line 4420 onwards | 13:51 |
| cosmo | berzerka, I have not had any problems with it in windows and it is less than a year old | 13:51 |
| WalloO | Leefmc, you have to find an update. But if it's just a new problem, maybe yoiu broke somethin somewhere. | 13:52 |
| L|NUX | any one ? | 13:52 |
| c0ffee | WalloO, but where does nautilus know from that the disk even exists? | 13:52 |
| c0ffee | WalloO, i just tried it, and it doesn't work :-/ | 13:52 |
| WalloO | Poosenki: it's normal it doesn't run it. It'S a software crash. | 13:52 |
| Leefmc | WalloO: An update? To what, my system is up to date heh | 13:52 |
| Leefmc | WalloO: Note that it happens only when booting up | 13:52 |
| WalloO | Leefmc, the software with a problem. | 13:52 |
| sipior | conor: be sure you have linux-libc-dev installed | 13:53 |
| berzerka | cosmo: well, if windows encounters such a failure, i guess it tries hard to just go on somehow, but that might not be the right way if you don't want to loose your data.. | 13:53 |
| Leefmc | WalloO: Well what software is running before i even see the ubuntu loader? | 13:53 |
| WalloO | leemf, you can but /home an another disk. This is a good way to upgrade easily later. | 13:53 |
| berzerka | cosmo: there are I/O errors on the device, and then the EHCI host controller driver apparently resets. | 13:53 |
| filthpig | StephenZ[asleep], okay.. So.. Say I wanna shrink partition D: in windows with perhaps 10 gb to use for ubuntu.. Then C: will also be affected by this? Since they're on the same hard drive..? I've always though of resizing as only moving the fence on only one side of the garden, to use your symbology | 13:53 |
| L|NUX | any one please help me | 13:53 |
| L|NUX | :( | 13:53 |
| Leefmc | WalloO: I know, but i gatta wipe ubuntu to do that. They're on the same disk heh | 13:53 |
| conor | sipior: I'll find it in Synaptic? | 13:53 |
| sipior | conor: yep | 13:54 |
| WalloO | C0ffee, it knoes, like when you plkug a usb key. Have you restarted after commenting it? | 13:54 |
| m4cdaddy | filthpig, no it changes the size of Windows part | 13:54 |
| WalloO | Leefmc, none exept the bios, and then the bootloader (grub) | 13:54 |
| c0ffee | WalloO, yes (this irc client is running on a remote box) | 13:54 |
| StephenZ[asleep] | Filthpig: If you have a garden, with a wall running through the middle, and you move that wall, both sides of the garden change size. The wall doesn't expand to fill the gap. | 13:54 |
| m4cdaddy | filthpig, it cant just add 10G to your harddrive out of no where ... | 13:54 |
| c0ffee | WalloO, when you plug in an usb key, you don't need server,path etc, like for an nfs mount | 13:54 |
| berzerka | cosmo: your lockup, however, seems to be related to this error (since it is the last entry before restart): Jun 24 05:32:20 cosmo-ubuntu kernel: [11480.223651] gdm[5398]: segfault at 00000009 eip b77db7e5 esp bfccf340 error 6 | 13:54 |
| Leefmc | WalloO: So GRUB might be out of date? heh, weird. | 13:55 |
| conor | sipior: Yes its installed | 13:55 |
| filthpig | m4cdaddy, I know that. That is why I wanna SHRINK part D: without affecting C: | 13:55 |
| WalloO | c0ffee, you talk about a phisical disk or a remote one? | 13:55 |
| c0ffee | remote | 13:55 |
| cosmo | berzerka, it really seems to have the issue when I try to access my music files on there in a music application like amarok | 13:56 |
| c0ffee | when i mount it with mount /media/nfs, it appears in nautilus an i can umount it | 13:56 |
| berzerka | cosmo: if gdm segfaults, you won't get a graphical login anymore i guess. try switching to the virtual console (ctrl-alt-F1) next time this happens. | 13:56 |
| c0ffee | but i want to be able to mount it from nautilus as well | 13:56 |
| WalloO | Leefmc, non, I think your grub is broken. There is no issue with grub. Especialy if it worked before. Your disk may have an issue or something likre that | 13:56 |
| sipior | conor: are more detailed instructions to be found in the tarball you extracted? should be an INSTALL file or the like | 13:56 |
| JC_Denton_ | how do I install the mplayer codecs /essential-20071007/ archive? I have an avi movie where only the audio plays | 13:56 |
| m4cdaddy | filthpig, well just shrink the windows one, you don't need it : ) | 13:56 |
| sipior | conor: also, what is this driver supposed to do? | 13:56 |
| Leefmc | WalloO: I gatta get netbooting down too, seeing as soon my disk may finally go in my laptop and i wont be able to use it to install anymore. | 13:57 |
| Leefmc | WalloO: Hmm, suck | 13:57 |
| WalloO | c0ffee, haaaa. sorry.... I don't know. When I did that myself, it didn't appeared as a disk in nautilus too | 13:57 |

| WalloO | JC_Denton_, habe you tried VLC ? it works most of the time | 13:58 |
| berzerka | cosmo: please: build the drive into your PC if possible and use a vendor's tool (http://www.ultimatebootcd.com) to check wether it is failing. if not, do a thorough filesystem check. then try to reproduce the behaviour, possibly in single user mode. i have to leave now. | 13:58 |

| cocoa117 | hello everyone, i am using Ubuntu hardy 8.04 with unsupported updates (hardy-backports). It seems the openoffice 2.4.1 have problem using Gnome interface. Anyone know how to solve this problem? The openoffice 2.4.0 was fine. I can't use Open icon to get the file list from file system, the pop up window hung the whole OO | 14:02 |
| WalloO | Leefmc, what? | 14:03 |
| Leefmc | WalloO: How often does this sort of thing happen? | 14:03 |

| WalloO | Leefmc, as soon as a disk has an error. It can happen randomly... :) | 14:04 |
| Leefmc | WalloO: Well, assuming its a disk error heh. | 14:04 |
| WalloO | Leefmc, it seems to, but difficult to say from remote | 14:05 |
| Leefmc | WalloO: Seems odd i get an operating system stopping disk error twice in 2 days for the first time in years, while running ubuntu for my first session heh | 14:05 |
| sipior | conor: yeah, this is a bit hard to discuss via irc, i'm afraid. basically, you'll need the kernel source (which you can get via synaptic) for the kernel version that you are running. you also need the kernel configuration file, also for the version that you are running, which you can find in /boot/config-x.y.z-a-generic | 14:05 |
| Leefmc | WalloO: Gotcha | 14:05 |
| DistroJockey | pen, I've had a little look at that and can't see an easy way. My only thought is to move the files | 14:05 |

| pen | DistroJockey: moving the files to new folder doesn't force it to create thumbnails | 14:07 |

| WalloO | Leefmc, very well for me.. I tested some overclock to 3.6Ghz with my Q6600 2.4Ghz, and before I found the good stable settings, it hard rebooted several times without any issue. But sometimes, shit happens... :) | 14:07 |

| mary_lix | How can i create an user with the lower lever of permissions?? | 14:35 |
| IndyGunFreak | MOzartstaedter: you should use caution before changing the owner of the folder, what exactly do you need to do? | 14:35 |
| mary_lix | I meant that the user cant modify any confiruration | 14:35 |
| MOzartstaedter | IndyGunFreak: /var/www/ | 14:35 |

| zoobox | some of the 16 updates have description now (libsmbclient, linux-headers, linux-image, linux-libc-dev, linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22-15-generic, and others) but some don't (linux-generic, linux-restricted-modules-generic, nvidia-glx-new) so I guess I wait til tomorrow with updating then.... | 14:35 |
| fr4nk_ | mary_lix: a user that can't modify any GLOBAL configuration is a normal system user | 14:36 |
| MOzartstaedter | IndyGunFreak: i want to create a new folder with a homepage inside | 14:36 |
| mary_lix | but for example a normal user can modify the menus of the gnome panel | 14:36 |
| Chousuke | zoobox: linux-restricted-modules-generic is a metapackage | 14:36 |
| IndyGunFreak | MOzartstaedter: type this in a terminal.. "gksudo nautilus" no quotes, hit enter, a file browser will open up w/ root priv... navigate to the folder in question, and create what you want | 14:36 |
| omar_ | Hello, please help me if you can. http://paste.ubuntu.com/22612/ | 14:36 |

| mary_lix | I want that the user can open the "edit menus" option from the application panel | 14:37 |

| fr4nk_ | mary_lix: but if other users are logged in, the will see their "own" configuration of the menus | 14:38 |
| babolat | do plog in a terminal, omar_ | 14:38 |
| mary_lix | cos other users will use that computer with same account | 14:38 |

| Gnimsh | not picked up by skype, cheese, camorama | 14:41 |

| Gnimsh | also I plugged in another webcam, and it also didn't work, but was also showing up | 14:41 |
| Col^ | marco, i'm not sure you can do that. As far as i know, the only thing the dock does, is pluggin "cables" in all the ports of the comp | 14:41 |
| albech | is there a burn application for gnome similar to K3b that will allow me to burn VCDs? | 14:42 |

| definitely | ? | 14:42 |
| babolat | yes, albech. tovid and many many others | 14:42 |

| Jack_Sparrow | definitely Please ask your question or we wont know how to help you | 14:43 |
| babolat | omar_: then after you see the "no pppd running: None stopped" message reconnect with sudo pon dsl-provider | 14:43 |
| definitely | Jack_Sparrow: Ok, have problem with "Snow" extra, when i tick it, it automatically went to be unticked :( | 14:43 |

| babolat | omar__: if you're able to ping IPs and your problem's just disconnections, that sounds like an ISP problem. if you can, try using that DSL line in another box and observe if the same prob exists. Or if not, try measuring the time between disconnections in that Ubuntu box.. aside from that i dunno what else to suggest :) | 14:52 |

| MarcoPau | Jack_Sparrow: well, they said they did actually install it in hardy, and worked right away | 15:14 |

| itai-michaelson | whats the chinese chanel for ubuntu irc? | 15:16 |

| Jack_Sparrow | IndyGunFreak Some of them are yes.. | 15:27 |
| teamcobra | woah | 15:27 |
| ASULutzy | IndyGunFreak: My card isn't supported out of the box | 15:27 |
| teamcobra | ASULutzy, it's 2008 | 15:27 |
| IndyGunFreak | ASULutzy: like i siad, that was my understanding... | 15:27 |
| aata | howlingmadhowie i solved te problem! | 15:27 |
| teamcobra | ndiswrapper = wack wack wack | 15:27 |
| Jack_Sparrow | there are more than a couple different bbcm43's | 15:27 |
| IndyGunFreak | atheros works fine... :) | 15:27 |
| teamcobra | ASULutzy, lspci for me please? | 15:27 |
| teamcobra | b43 _really_ should support your chipset, been following it for quite some time now | 15:28 |
| ASULutzy | teamcobra: Well, I have native drivers for my USB wireless adapter, but for my internal broadcom I had to setup ndiswrapper. 02:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4310 USB Controller (rev 01) | 15:28 |
| blahblahx | would this command: "gconftool-2 --direct --config-source xml:readwrite:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults --load /root/panel2.xml /apps/panel" update the contents of /apps/panel to that of the file /panel2.xml ? | 15:28 |
| ASULutzy | teamcobra: Maybe it does? But all I know is when I turned this laptop on and went to system -> administration -> restricted drivers, there was nothing there :) | 15:28 |
| teamcobra | ASU: try this: blacklist ndiswrapper, rmmod ndiswrapper | 15:29 |
| Jack_Sparrow | teamcobra I have a couple of Dells with the bcm43 that will not work with b43 | 15:29 |
| teamcobra | Jack: and they don't work w/ b43legacy? | 15:29 |
| Jack_Sparrow | nope | 15:29 |
| ASULutzy | teamcobra: heh, if you pastebin me some stuff to try I will (later) I'm at work right now, can't exactly be taking a shot in the dark for if it will work | 15:29 |
| teamcobra | Jack in the -19 kernel? | 15:29 |
| teamcobra | ASULutzy, : ahh, basically when you get a chance, it's a simple "sudo apt-get install b43-fwcutter" | 15:30 |
| teamcobra | w/ ndiswrapper blacklisted and the other wireless plugged in | 15:30 |
| Jack_Sparrow | teamcobra I dont know what kernel are in them.. they are working now and on site.. so until they quit.. I wont see them | 15:30 |
| menininho | JFS, XFS ou EXT3? | 15:30 |
| menininho | JFS, XFS or EXT3? | 15:30 |
| ASULutzy | teamcobra: Have they changed it recently? Because I tried that before and blacklisted ndiswrapper as well as one other thing (saw it on a wiki) and it didn't work. If something was changed recently I guess I can give it another go | 15:30 |
| blahblahx | anyone? | 15:30 |
| teamcobra | ASULutzy, well, my card isn't even supposed to work in 2.6.25, and the kernel devs said it'd be too much to backport it.... but lo and behold, the ubuntu kernel team whoops the llama again | 15:31 |
| menininho | yeap | 15:31 |
| teamcobra | I have 4 laptops w/ bcm pos and they all work now | 15:31 |
| teamcobra | menininho, depends on the situation | 15:31 |
| teamcobra | desktop/laptop, go w/ ext3 | 15:31 |
| Jack_Sparrow | menininho I will second ext3 for general use | 15:32 |
| artista_frustrad | a friend of mine is trying to install ubuntu and the installation freezes om 15% with a error msg "cannot create /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpi0/cpufreq/scaling_governor: Diretorio iexistente | 15:32 |
| artista_frustrad | CPU frenquency scaling not supported" | 15:32 |
| ASULutzy | teamcobra: I might give it a try later tonight, but honestly I have no problems using ndiswrapper. If I'm doing something semi-dubious and need to enter monitor mode I just plug in my trendnet USB adapter and good to go ;) | 15:32 |
| menininho | ext3 is much low comparable with xfs / jfs | 15:32 |
| artista_frustrad | does anyone know how to proceed ? | 15:33 |
| patbam | hi folks, i just accidentally switched my gnome into, i think, some sort of zoomy high-resolution mode (probably for folks with vision problems). how do i get out of it? | 15:33 |
| teamcobra | ASULutzy, ndiswrapper can cause some nasty nasty panics | 15:33 |
| blahblahx | i love being ignored! | 15:33 |
| ASULutzy | teamcobra: I seem to be pretty stable? I've not seen a single crash on this laptop yet while in Ubuntu or OpenSuse11... Maybe that's just me getting lucky ;) | 15:33 |
| teamcobra | blah: not too familiar w/ gconf in the terminal | 15:34 |
| Jack_Sparrow | menininho ext3 works fine, has journaling and is easier to get help with if something goes wrong | 15:34 |
| teamcobra | hahahahahahhaa, speaking of opensuse | 15:34 |
| Jack_Sparrow | blahblahx Please stop | 15:34 |
| XGas | depends on what you have(hardware, situation), do(what type of data you store), and need(power saving, performance, etc). | 15:34 |
| XGas | I personally use XFS | 15:34 |
| blahblahx | Jack_Sparrow: why is everyone ignoring me? | 15:34 |
| teamcobra | there's some errata that I haven't had to touch since 2.6.18 that they somehow brought back in their 2.6.25 kernel | 15:34 |
| blahblahx | Jack_Sparrow: they could at least say i dont know | 15:34 |
| XGas | but XFS hinders power saving partially. | 15:34 |
| teamcobra | and unless I pass noapic, it'll freeze randomly ;p | 15:34 |
| teamcobra | opensuse 11 seemed kind of... unpolished (and this is coming from a longtime slack user) | 15:35 |
| ASULutzy | blahblahx: There are 1300+ people in the channel, would you really want each one to say, "I don't know" everytime they don't the answer? It's hard enough to follow this channel as it is | 15:35 |
| Jack_Sparrow | blahblahx Why should 1200 people tell you they dont know... | 15:35 |
| pep | hi, I have a problem... a friend just saw that his windows installation has dissapeared from his grub menu... we tried sudo updat-grub twice and it still isn't there... anyone have an idea how to generate a new menu swith the windows installation in it? | 15:35 |
| blahblahx | ASULutzy: at least i would get the illusion people wanted to help with any problem that was the least bit challenging. | 15:35 |
| Jack_Sparrow | blahblahx If they knew they would answer.. quite simple | 15:35 |
| blahblahx | Jack_Sparrow: so out of 1300 people no one here knows how to use gconf? | 15:36 |
| Jack_Sparrow | blahblahx it would be a better question for #bash channel | 15:36 |
| ASULutzy | teamcobra: This is getting pretty offtopic so PM me if you want to chat further about it, but I agree. It was polished in some regards (shiny grub, nice installation) but some basic things were just hosed. For example they're still using the evolution that isn't patched yet so clicking edit ->preferences crashes it. There's lots of stuff that makes it look rushed in some regards | 15:36 |
| Guillaum3 | greets gents. i have a new monitor which actually goes higher than 1024x768 | 15:36 |

| ASULutzy | pep: You're sure the Windows partition is still there right? (you can try sudo fdisk -l in the terminal to make sure there's still an NTFS part, and then go from there) | 15:37 |

| Guillaum3 | its not selectable from gdms' "Screen Resolution" app. | 15:37 |

| IndyGunFreak | negge: then i would probably get a cheap USB drive and put the image on there adn install from there. | 16:08 |
| negge | GeoffTheFish if you get root access to it then yes you can | 16:08 |
| jrib | !upgrade > GeoffTheFish (read the private message from ubottu) | 16:08 |

| peter86 | noodlesgc, GIANTboy, filleokus nvm ;) I find out with google :) | 16:57 |
| filleokus | peter86: okay, what was the reason? | 16:57 |
| zeno__ | conor: yeah sudo apt-get install ntfs-3g, and then mount the windows partition (probably in storage media or w/e) | 16:57 |

| snap|l3thal | could anyone help me with wine uninstall. cant seem to get rpm -e wine-x.xxx.xx to uninstall | 16:57 |
| c1 | i do it | 16:57 |
| c1 | then? | 16:57 |
| peter86 | filleokus, If you want more partitions you should first create an extended partition. Such a partition can contain other partitions. Because an extended partition is also a primary partition it might be necessary to remove a primary partition first. | 16:57 |
| funkadelicchicke | I think i may switch bak to windows even though i hate it, then Ill just go buy the best thing outbook pro looks good, linux is too darn confusing ther, a mac laptop....mac | 16:58 |

| Hupy | 2.0.14 and 3.0 | 17:15 |
| opt1k | i got beta 5 and it says it's the newest when i try to upgrade it, but i think that mozilla released the official firefox 3 version | 17:15 |
| dmacnutt | opt1k: apt-get update | 17:15 |
| philh | harris, do any 3d games or screensavers work at a reasonable speed? | 17:16 |
| harris | philh: I tried it and when I restart my CPU.... the resolution have changed I cant resize my resolution to a higher value | 17:16 |

| philh | harris, is there a package called nvidia-glx-legacy in the repository for gutsy? | 17:17 |
| harris | philh: hmmmmmm that is I don't know..... im a newbie user here.... :) | 17:17 |
| genii | Joey__: When disk checks find some files that have been orphaned it puts them in there | 17:17 |
| jrib | Vaportrail123new: trust me. Your best course of action is to backup and install 8.04 | 17:17 |
| philh | harris, start the package manager and search for nvidia, see what turns up | 17:18 |
| Colin1 | Hey hey, so.. FPS... limited to refresh rate.. got a game here that needs no limit. What do I do? | 17:18 |
| Joey__ | thanks | 17:18 |

| harris | philh: actually my restricted drivers are turned on | 17:18 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | Colin1: since when is framerate limited to refresh rate? | 17:19 |
| MrKennie | which nvidia card do you have harris? | 17:19 |
| Colin1 | Daisuke_Laptop: Apparently when vsync is forced ;) | 17:19 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | Colin1: yeah, thats the only time | 17:19 |
| harris | philh,MrKennie: hey I need to restart chat u later.... mr kennie im using Geforce mx440 SE (AOPEN) | 17:20 |
| Qwell | Did I seriously just get a spam from ubuntu for firefox testing? seriously? | 17:20 |
| Colin1 | Daisuke_Laptop: It seems to be the case for this game | 17:20 |
| Daisuke_Laptop | you should be able to turn off vsync in the game, it's usually on a per-app basis | 17:20 |
| Colin1 | Daisuke_Laptop: I'm not. And I did enough tests to prove it was refresh rate limited. | 17:20 |
| dfgas | on ubuntu the link to start ubuntu runs the command firefox %u what is the %u? | 17:21 |
| opt1k | hm.. guess i struck gold :D | 17:22 |
| Starnestommy | dfgas: the url | 17:22 |
| opt1k | found BitPim package | 17:22 |
| jrib | dfgas: if you drag a url onto the link, it will put it in place of the %u | 17:22 |
| dfgas | oh | 17:23 |
| wittyphotons | hey there; i need a program to edit the contents of a .iso while maintaining its integrity; anyone have any ideas? | 17:23 |
| dfgas | just trying to figure out why it crashes on here | 17:23 |
| Vaportrail123new | wow | 17:23 |
| harris | YEAH | 17:24 |
| harris | YEAHHHHH!!! | 17:24 |
| Vaportrail123new | ok, so how do i get my update manager updated.... | 17:24 |
| zeno__ | harris: wth? | 17:24 |
| harris | philh: heyyyy Its okay now.... its just that i need to restart my system.. thanksss | 17:24 |
| jrib | Vaportrail123new: I take it you are choosing to ignore my suggestion then? | 17:24 |
| Vaportrail123new | my comp shut down | 17:24 |
| jrib | Vaportrail123new: Your best course of action is to backup and install 8.04 | 17:25 |
| Vaportrail123new | also im not sure how to do it your way | 17:25 |
| Vaportrail123new | how would i do that | 17:25 |
| halvor | hei! | 17:25 |
| Vaportrail123new | ie, where would i download it | 17:25 |
| harris | philh: you know I don't get it sometimes my Topbar(minimize,maximize,close) of my windows or Gui doesn't work | 17:25 |
| jrib | Vaportrail123new: ubuntu.com click on "get ubuntu" | 17:25 |
| Vaportrail123new | makes sense... | 17:25 |
| Vaportrail123new | lol | 17:25 |
| harris | philh: when i switch to visual effects normal | 17:25 |
| Vaportrail123new | thanks man | 17:25 |
| genii | wittyphotons: Better to just copy all the iso contents out to some directory which you can write to, make your changes, then create another iso with mkisofs from the contents of that | 17:25 |
| jrib | Vaportrail123new: you can upgrade 6.10, but because it is so old, it is a hassle and not worth it | 17:25 |
| hyphenated | dfgas: it'll be some weird combination of mount, loop devices, growisofs and then regular IO commands. | 17:26 |
| hyphenated | dfgas: but I'm not sure exactly what else is needed | 17:26 |
| wittyphotons | genii, do you know of a way that i can do that while still having the resulting .iso be bootable? | 17:26 |
| dfgas | um/ | 17:26 |
| dfgas | ? | 17:26 |
| dfgas | heh | 17:26 |
| wittyphotons | genii, the disk image in question is a modified winxp install cd (slipstreamed some drivers in) | 17:26 |
| bazhang | !uck | wittyphotons | 17:26 |
| ubottu | wittyphotons: UCK is a tool that helps you customise official Ubuntu Live CDs (including Kubuntu/Xubuntu and Edubuntu) to your needs. See http://uck.sourceforge.net/ | 17:27 |
| hyphenated | dfgas: oh, for wittyphotons psh sorry :-) | 17:27 |
| genii | wittyphotons: The mkisofs command has extensive options including many involving boot options, etc. | 17:27 |
| wittyphotons | genii, i have been racking my brains over this for the last 48 hours | 17:27 |
| bazhang | for windows? | 17:27 |
| wittyphotons | genii, is there a gui for mkisofs? | 17:27 |
| filleokus | anyone using the mce keyboard? | 17:27 |
| wittyphotons | genii, because i'm not hardcore enough to do this all from the command line, i think | 17:27 |
| erdem__ | #ubuntu-tr | 17:27 |
| genii | wittyphotons: It's extremely bad form by the way to ask about how to illegally ater a windows iso image from inside linux, while in a linux support channel :) | 17:28 |
| Housefly7k | youtube videos hanging on Hardy after 4 seconds...was working before udate, videos on bbc.com still work...any help? | 17:28 |
| dfgas | my god firefox crashed again | 17:29 |
| wittyphotons | genii, it's not really illegal. i mean, i own the original. i'm just trying to add a driver to the installation cd because otherwise i have to use a usb floppy disk drive, because it's windows and it's stupid | 17:29 |
| Housefly7k | how would i remove all the installed flash plugins from firefox to try a different one? | 17:29 |
| dfgas | firefox locks up. takes cpu to 100% and just sits there to i kill it | 17:29 |
| graydot | i installed kubuntu-desktop through aptitude and it installed a lot of software. i have three problems now. 1. My network connection applet had disappeared and i used the panel's add applet to add to the system notification area. Now, when I try to configure my eth0 from there it says no such interface. Configuring the interface from System>Administration>Network works fine After every reboot, the dns address gets removed and i have to manually set it | 17:29 |
| graydot | every time. 2. The quit dialog doesn't have shutdown or reboot. it was there before. 3. The boot splash screen and shutdown screens are kubuntu's. Now i try to remove kubuntu-desktop, the other packages do not get removed. only kubuntu-desktop is remove. | 17:29 |
| bazhang | wittyphotons, please /join #ubuntu-offtopic | 17:29 |
| wittyphotons | bazhang, uh, k | 17:29 |
| Poprocks | dfgas, is flash running every time this happens? | 17:29 |
| graydot | sorry that went too long | 17:30 |
| Vaportrail123new | cant i mount an iso to a thumb drive, and if so, how would i go abouts doing so | 17:30 |
| dfgas | Poprocks, i would imagine so, y? | 17:30 |
| Housefly7k | graydot: i just installed kubuntu-desktop and have the same problem with the splash screens saying kubunt | 17:30 |
| opt1k | hey, when i use apt-get autoremove it only removes the packages that were installed with the programs i have no longer on computer or? | 17:30 |
| Poprocks | dfgas, I've had flash hard-lock my firefox many times, but usually I wait a minute or two and it starts responding again | 17:31 |
| MrKeuner | hi, my tracker applet disappeared from the panel, I cannot seem to find it anymore in the list, either. | 17:31 |
| graydot | Housefly7k: is your system notification area showing the network applet? in gnome? | 17:31 |
| dfgas | Poprocks, any way to fix it otherwise? | 17:31 |
| Housefly7k | yes | 17:31 |
| Housefly7k | graydot: yes | 17:31 |
| opt1k | hey, when i use apt-get autoremove it only removes the packages that were installed with the programs i have no longer on computer or? | 17:31 |
| graydot | can you configure the eth0 from that applet? also can you see the shutdown/reboot buttons? | 17:31 |
| Poprocks | dfgas, not that I know of :( I've literally seen no discussion of this on the net | 17:31 |
| Poprocks | dfgas, but I haven't investigated it in awhile | 17:32 |
| dfgas | Poprocks, k, well thanks for the info, i will look into it. ty | 17:32 |
| bazhang | !puregnome | graydot | 17:32 |
| ubottu | graydot: If you want to remove all !KDE packages and have a default !Ubuntu system follow the instructions here << http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/puregnome >> | 17:32 |
| Poprocks | dfgas: np, I guess one thing you could try is to disable flash for awhile and see if it ever hard-locks, but the web is barely usable without flash these days ;) | 17:33 |
| neverblue | guys, when updates occur, that require a restart, on a remote box i use all the time, how can I have that service ( VNC, remote, etc..) running at the login page, rather than 'after' the user logs in ? | 17:33 |
| opt1k | hey, when i use apt-get autoremove it only removes the packages that were installed with the programs i have no longer on computer or? | 17:33 |
| bazhang | graydot, then reinstall the kde apps you want (they can mix and match with gnome no worries) | 17:33 |
| Vaportrail123new | can i mount isos on thumb drives? | 17:33 |
| graydot | thanks bazhang | 17:34 |
| Housefly7k | graydot: yes for both questions | 17:34 |
| graydot | i will try that | 17:34 |
| Cufaf | hi | 17:34 |
| graydot | Housefly7k: oh darn | 17:34 |
| Cufaf | how can i install my intel graphics card and how edit xorg? | 17:34 |
| javatexan | how do I check to see how much of my hard drive is being used up. I did a single partition for / and then the swap separate | 17:34 |
| Housefly7k | youtube videos hanging, get stuck after a couple of seconds....any help? | 17:34 |
| bastid_raZor | javatexan; df -h | 17:35 |
| opt1k | hey, when i use apt-get autoremove it only removes the packages that were installed with the programs i have no longer on computer or? | 17:35 |

| dromer | hmmm, I have no idea what happened, but somehow mplayer can't give video-output anymore, I only get audio now | 17:36 |

| PPKuma | hi, if i want to have a dual-boot with win an linux. Whats the best format for the data partition. | 17:37 |
| Housefly7k | conor: well, do i have to remove what i have now and then install gnash? and is it from synaptics/ | 17:37 |
| Joey__ | gftp keeps closing :( | 17:37 |
| MrKeuner | hi, my tracker applet disappeared from the panel, I cannot seem to find it anymore in the list, either. | 17:37 |
| dromer | _Milburgr: which one is that? | 17:37 |
| joaopinto | PPKuma, probably ntfs since it's supported natively on both OSes | 17:38 |
| dromer | _Milburgr: gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg - FFmpeg plugin for GStreamer << that one I presume? | 17:38 |
| _Milburgr | dromer: yes | 17:38 |
| bastid_raZor | PPKuma; the data partition is going to be used by both windows and linux? | 17:38 |
| _Milburgr | dromer : actually... i think there was another one | 17:38 |
| _Milburgr | it was 3 or 4 | 17:38 |
| PPKuma | bastid_raZor: yep | 17:38 |
| dromer | hmm, this one isn't even installed atm .. | 17:38 |
| conor | Housefly7k: I only got linux yesterday so I am very new, But I dont think you have to remove anything and yes I get it from synaptics | 17:39 |
| bastid_raZor | PPKuma; then joaopinto's idea would be best.. ntfs | 17:39 |
| PPKuma | joaopinto: i tough linux had problems with ntfs | 17:39 |

| _Milburgr | hold on - let me see if i can find the list | 17:40 |
| trakinas | it is not loadingthe title bars unless i use the metacity --replace command (and mind the white spaces... this keyboard spacebar is wrecked) | 17:40 |
| peter86 | why when I type sudo su I get root@ without password? :> | 17:40 |
| richdawg | connect irc.hanirc.org | 17:40 |
| trakinas | peter86: because you are already identified into sudo. | 17:41 |
| joaopinto | peter86, because you already used sudo and the credentials get cached ? | 17:41 |
| joaopinto | peter86, and you should not use sudo su, but sudo -i instead | 17:41 |
| trakinas | next login, try sudo su before any sudo command.;] | 17:41 |
| melol2 | hey. how on linux via terminal can you compress a 9GB folder? | 17:41 |
| peter86 | trakinas, joaopinto how to clean cache? | 17:41 |
| joaopinto | peter86, exit from the shell ? | 17:41 |
| trakinas | peter86: no idea. i barely use root. | 17:42 |
| joaopinto | melol2, tar czvf file.tar.gz folder | 17:42 |
| peter86 | trakinas, joaopinto no... when I exit shell and enter again, typing sudo su I get root without password | 17:42 |
| _Milburgr | dromer: was gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg, gstreamer0.10-fluendo-mpegr and the mpegc | 17:42 |
| joaopinto | peter86, are you using ubuntu ? | 17:42 |
| melol2 | joaopinto, sure that will work? so far everytime i try to compress the folder it turns out 2GB | 17:42 |
| peter86 | joaopinto, yes | 17:42 |
| richdawg | exit | 17:43 |
| richdawg | quit | 17:43 |
| Vaportrail123new | how do i use my linksys card instead of the internal card? | 17:43 |
| dromer | _Milburgr: ok | 17:43 |
| dromer | _Milburgr: lemme check :) | 17:43 |
| joaopinto | peter86, erm, are you executing sudo already from a root account ? | 17:43 |
| hab_21 | hi help seting up samba? | 17:43 |
| trakinas | melol2: 9GB becomes 2GB?? Thta *is* compression | 17:43 |
| dromer | _Milburgr: E: Couldn't find package gstreamer0.10-fluendo-mpegr | 17:43 |
| _Milburgr | dromer - just noticed i have a suite of elisa-plugins-bad -good -ugly installed too... | 17:43 |
| _Milburgr | dromer - you using the gui? | 17:43 |
| peter86 | joaopinto, what do you mean from a root account? Im under my peter@peter, X server, gnome, Type sudo su and get root@peter without password | 17:43 |
| melol2 | trakinas, i don't think it is getting the full contents | 17:44 |
| joaopinto | peter86, ok, you must have changed the sudoers config for that | 17:44 |
| _Milburgr | dromer: the way i found it was i went to synaptic pkg manager and searched for codec | 17:44 |
| Vaportrail123new | did u test it melol? | 17:44 |
| dromer | _Milburgr: no, don't have one (wm = fluxbox) | 17:44 |
| neverblue | guys, when updates occur, that require a restart, on a remote box i use all the time, how can I have that service ( VNC, remote, etc..) running at the login page, rather than 'after' the user logs in ? | 17:44 |
| trakinas | melol2: why not? decompress it somewhere else | 17:44 |
| joaopinto | trakinas, it can be if that data is mostly text files or similar | 17:44 |
| melol2 | Vaportrail123new, i'm trying but it takes a while to download via ftp | 17:44 |
| peter86 | joaopinto, what a mess... is this possible that I switch something wrong? | 17:44 |
| d[x_x]b | wheres the root trash in hardy? (ie my trash is in ~/.local/Trash) | 17:45 |
| _Milburgr | dromer: are you using totem? what kind of media are you trying to play? (wmv/avi?) | 17:45 |
| dromer | _Milburgr: I'm just using apt, should'n matter | 17:45 |
| hab_21 | hi help seting up samba? | 17:45 |
| Vaportrail123new | well, it may just be really nicely compressed | 17:45 |
| trakinas | neverblue: add them at boot. dont know by heart, something to do with runserv | 17:45 |
| peter86 | joaopinto, I cant belive I can do such a thing in a linux | 17:45 |
| dromer | I'm using mplayer, that's what I said, and I'm trying to open an avi | 17:45 |
| dromer | worked fine until recently | 17:45 |
| trakinas | peter86: reboot your system | 17:45 |
| Vaportrail123new | melol: is FAT32 in any way involved? cuz that can cause issues | 17:45 |
| trakinas | DONT DO any sudo command. | 17:45 |
| _Milburgr | dromer: true - just like seeing the list sometimes when i'm looking for answers | 17:45 |

| trakinas | peter86: this is NOT a problem | 17:46 |
| dromer | anyone else know what could be wrong why mplayer can't play video anymore? | 17:47 |

| Vaportrail123new | i just installed linux last night, i have no clue lol | 17:47 |
| negge | I need some help with installing Ubuntu on my new Asus EEE. I have the alternate version of Hardy. The problem is that it can't detect the Cdrom (cause there is none). How do I solve this? I tried mounting the USB drive under /cdrom and the files show up but then I get an error saying the CD is defected | 17:47 |
| peter86 | trakinas, any person who gona get to my account will get root just typing sudo su - it is a BIG problem! | 17:47 |
| hab_21 | also sambe install? | 17:47 |
| trakinas | peter86: it will not. | 17:47 |
| peter86 | trakinas, thats I want to not be identyfied | 17:47 |
| negge | google wasn't very helpful either, seems like I'm the only one who has this problem except some guy on the forums but he didn't get it working either | 17:47 |
| apakatt | I have installed vsftp with all the users chrooted to their home-dir. is there a way to make them have a shared folder all can upload to? | 17:47 |
| trakinas | unless you did something wrong, you need to retype pass forany sudo command when you get out of the system. | 17:48 |
| Vaportrail123new | gguys, can some one please help me get my linksys wireless card working >< | 17:48 |
| joaopinto | apakatt, I am not sure chroot allows to follow symlinks, you could try | 17:48 |
| trakinas | does anyone ever had troubles with metacity not initializating with the gnome? | 17:48 |
| apakatt | joaopinto: I have tried but no success :/ | 17:48 |
| neverblue | trakinas so you think it can happen, is it not a setting with the server, but with the OS? | 17:48 |
| Bucheron | gnarf | 17:49 |
| joaopinto | apakatt, well, the other option is to do bind mount, that works, but you will need 1 mount per user, it may be overkilling | 17:49 |
| melol2 | Vaportrail123new, i think that takes some restricted drivers | 17:49 |
| trakinas | neverblue: i beg your pardon? | 17:49 |
| peter86 | trakinas, it is the first idea of making root user and normal user. When someone gets user account - he cant have root permisions | 17:49 |
| Vaportrail123new | meaning.... | 17:49 |
| melol2 | you can find it somewhere just google ubuntu wireless drivers | 17:49 |
| apakatt | joaopinto: ok, can you point me in the right direction? | 17:49 |
| trakinas | peter86: unless you give it permission typing the sudo/su commands | 17:50 |
| magnetron | negge: you might want to investigate eeexubuntu | 17:50 |
| th83 | anyone work with scantv/tvtime or any other tv viewer on ubuntu ? | 17:50 |
| negge | magnetron how different is that from the normal ubuntu? | 17:50 |
| peter86 | trakinas, but somehow ubuntu creators gives us sudo su command. | 17:50 |
| trakinas | if you dont want to give root perms to peter86, simplyt remove it from sudo group | 17:50 |
| th83 | i am not getting any channels during scan | 17:50 |
| Vaportrail123new | well, i just tried to download the iso for ubuntu 8, but it stop at 30mb and said it was completed. halp! | 17:50 |
| joaopinto | apakatt, man mount, look for the bind mount, it basically allows you to mount an existing path into a specific location, on your case you would want to bind mount /shared into /home/user/shared | 17:50 |
| trakinas | and add another user for such task and never use it unless stricted necessary | 17:50 |
| negge | magnetron and I want gnome not Xfce | 17:50 |
| katoraster | hello everybody | 17:50 |
| neverblue | trakinas: scroll up, if your missing what we were talking about... | 17:51 |
| magnetron | negge: it's based on xubuntu, thus being more lightweight | 17:51 |
| Claw6 | peter86 i have eeexubuntu | 17:51 |

| openfoam | normally i would do it using a ln but I dont have root access | 17:53 |
| katoraster | the one with ubuntu | 17:53 |
| joaopinto | Vaportrail123new, it will be updated if there is any update available | 17:53 |
| katoraster | by default | 17:53 |
| trakinas | peter86: ubuntu does not uses su... su was just a given example | 17:53 |
| wols | katoraster: ubuntu comes with a dozen. whichone | 17:53 |
| billenium | Is there a way to complete remove GNOMEubuntu and reinstall GNOMEubuntu? (right now im on xubuntu) | 17:53 |
| katoraster | i don't know | 17:53 |
| Vaportrail123new | when i tried, it just ended up not working for some reason | 17:53 |
| LMJ | hi | 17:53 |
| katoraster | how can i tell you? | 17:53 |
| openfoam | billenium, apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop | 17:53 |
| trakinas | billenium: apt-get purge ubuntu-desktop | 17:53 |
| th83 | <openfoam> just creat a symbolic link | 17:53 |
| peter86 | trakinas, what do you mean it not uses su? When you type su command under terminal you will be pleased for password | 17:53 |
| apakatt | joaopinto: it worked! thanks a bunch! | 17:53 |
| katoraster | i just converted from xp | 17:53 |
| negge | Claw6 magnetron can you help me? | 17:53 |
| wols | katoraster: what videocard do you have? | 17:54 |
| dr_Willis | I dident think removing ubuntu-desktop removed much of anything | 17:54 |
| trakinas | peter86: but you have no password for root. | 17:54 |
| Claw6 | negge i can w8 a sec | 17:54 |
| wols | dr_Willis: it won't | 17:54 |
| openfoam | th83, how do i do that not having root access? | 17:54 |
| katoraster | ATI that's all I know | 17:54 |
| LMJ | Is there a way to know if a package is planned to be updated? If not, Can I ask to the devs? | 17:54 |
| negge | Claw6 okay | 17:54 |
| trakinas | you have sudo password for using root | 17:54 |
| dr_Willis | Of course - i dont think removeing/reinstalling GNOME would acomplish much anyway | 17:54 |
| wols | katoraster: find out which ati | 17:54 |
| Claw6 | i will query y0 | 17:54 |
| peter86 | trakinas, yes... so what is the idea of su command in ubuntu? | 17:54 |
| hab_21 | how to install flash? | 17:54 |
| katoraster | how? | 17:54 |

| ubottu | To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash (a recent version for !Dapper is available in !backports) - See also !Restricted and !Gnash | 17:54 |
| th83 | create a link in there | 17:54 |

| katoraster | plz let's talk in private | 17:54 |
| th83 | and put this dir in the path | 17:54 |
| hab_21 | i keep flowing the instrection still not working | 17:54 |
| dr_Willis | melol2, use 'tar' | 17:54 |
| melol2 | or with compressing. i don't cae. | 17:54 |
| trakinas | now, i must find out *my* problem. hehe! anyone knows how to solve a non starting metacity? | 17:55 |
| melol2 | dr_Willis, that only outputs 2GBs of what i want | 17:55 |
| wols | katoraster: do NOT message me | 17:55 |
| Vaportrail123new | is there a way to update the update manager? | 17:55 |
| aerlinn | please tell me could I replace my 8.04 xorg.conf with old version 7/04 | 17:55 |
| Vaportrail123new | without using it? | 17:55 |
| hab_21 | i have look there | 17:55 |
| trakinas | peter86: to be used with sudo... | 17:55 |
| th83 | <openfoam> off course the path need to be set in the .bashrc | 17:55 |
| magnetron | Vaportrail123new: it will update itself when you use it | 17:55 |
| melol2 | and dr_Willis, there is no way that it could have compressed 13,000 files into 2GB | 17:55 |
| stort | which package contains routed/gated daemons? regular search of package contents doesn't find those files | 17:55 |
| trakinas | changes between non root users... | 17:55 |
| Vaportrail123new | but it didnt | 17:55 |
| dr_Willis | melol2, what filesystem is the archive on? you can have more then 2 gb in size tar archives | 17:55 |
| openfoam | th83, now im confused | 17:56 |
| Vaportrail123new | i tried to use it and it said various files failed | 17:56 |
| dr_Willis | melol2, tar does not compress. it just archives. | 17:56 |
| trakinas | everything it would do, expect giving you root privileges | 17:56 |
| peter86 | trakinas no, that is a reason of using sudo su, not su :) | 17:56 |
| dr_Willis | melol2, tar CAN compress with the right options | 17:56 |
| joaopinto | dr_Willis, it does if you uze -z :) | 17:56 |
| katoraster | ok, sorry | 17:56 |
| katoraster | i am very new | 17:56 |
| melol2 | dr_Willis, i'm not sure of the filesystem. how ca i tell? | 17:56 |
| trakinas | peter86: sudo su is for getting *root* account | 17:56 |
| katoraster | i am not used to irc at all | 17:56 |
| dr_Willis | joaopinto, i think technically its calling some other program to do the compression. | 17:56 |
| trakinas | su is for swtiching between users.... | 17:56 |
| n-iCe | bye | 17:56 |
| joaopinto | trakinas, no IT IS NOT, the proper way is sudo -i | 17:56 |
| root_ | how to make a new user? | 17:57 |
| rampageoberon | katoraster: what is your question? | 17:57 |
| trakinas | joaopinto: correct! | 17:57 |
| th83 | <openfoam> PATH=$PATH:/opt/intel/fc/bin/ | 17:57 |
| katoraster | it started downloading soemthing, after it said that no appropriate driver is installed | 17:57 |
| joaopinto | dr_Willis, not really, its using the zlib library, but it is tar doing the compression, not gzip | 17:57 |
| trakinas | joaopinto: my appologises | 17:57 |
| th83 | just put this in the .bashrc | 17:57 |
| genii | root_: sudo adduser <usernamehere> | 17:57 |
| root_ | i think im in xfc | 17:57 |
| katoraster | i need to enable desktop effects | 17:57 |
| katoraster | i guess i am working on it!! | 17:57 |
| trakinas | peter86: if you have peter86 and peter87 you would use su to change between them... | 17:57 |
| peter86 | trakinas, sudo passwd root - entering new password for su command | 17:58 |
| dr_Willis | joaopinto, im rembering my old skool days from 10+ yrs ago then. :) flashbacks | 17:58 |
| Vaportrail123new | anyone know a good download manager for ubuntu? | 17:58 |
| joaopinto | trakinas, sorry for the CAPS, but using sudo su can lead to problems | 17:58 |
| th83 | <openfoam> source .bashrc .... execute this afterward | 17:58 |
| wols | Vaportrail123new: wget | 17:58 |
| th83 | thats it two steps | 17:58 |
| stort | Vaportrail123new: d4x | 17:58 |
| joaopinto | dr_Willis, tar | gzip ;) | 17:58 |
| Vaportrail123new | lol | 17:58 |
| melol2 | dr_Willis, i'm not sure of the filesystem. it is on a hosting server how can i tell? | 17:58 |
| Vaportrail123new | thnx | 17:58 |
| trakinas | joaopinto: np! yes... i barely use root... | 17:58 |
| wols | melol2: "mount" or "file" | 17:58 |
| joaopinto | melol2, an linux hosting filesystem will most likely use a linux fs, like ext3 | 17:59 |
| godlygeek | what problems can be caused by 'sudo su'? Apart from worse logs, and needing to understand the env vars and type of shell you get? | 17:59 |
| joaopinto | wols, "file" ? | 17:59 |
| humbolt | I'd like to set realtime priority for pulse. I have set the rtlimit and created a realtime group, which I am member off, still pulse does not start with realtime (necessary options set in daemon.conf also) | 17:59 |
| wols | joaopinto: file /dev/<device> | 18:00 |
| joaopinto | godlygeek, applications executed with root may create files on the original user $HOMEdir | 18:00 |
| dejiko | i've seen "sudo -s" too | 18:00 |
| Claw6 | negge? | 18:00 |
| godlygeek | that falls into 'understanding the env vars' AFAICS... | 18:00 |
| jadams_ | is there a good 'screenshot in n seconds' program? | 18:00 |
| melol2 | joaopinto, would that affect my ability to add 9GBs to an archive? | 18:00 |
| dejiko | i see | 18:01 |
| humbolt | anybody fit with pulseaudio? | 18:01 |
| joaopinto | godlygeek, most people which "sudo su", have a bad time recovering from such an error | 18:01 |
| godlygeek | sudo -u newuser -s -H is probably a better way to go, though. | 18:01 |
| Raf1 | i tried the raid 0 tutorials but they didn't work | 18:01 |
| jadams_ | I can't use ubuntu's printscreen because it's for a webpage that removes the element I'm concerned with when focus changes or non-arrow-keys are pressed | 18:01 |

| Syntux | jadams_, Applications -> accessories -> Take a screenshot | 18:01 |
| joaopinto | wols, I understood your point, however, just answering "file", is not very helpful for someone which does not know what filesystem type is using ;) | 18:01 |

So i told her what to do ... apt-get install openssh-server ... she gave me the output, it said, it installed and started openssh-server. she can connect locally, i cannot connect via internet (runs via dsl on ppp0). iptables -L reveals no packet-drop-filters... any ideas why i cannot connect? | 18:05 |

| gribouille | stdin, you're just a motherfucker | 18:06 |

| keram | hello | 18:11 |
| === bkwlightowler is now known as eth01 | ||
| keram | i am following a guide to get dual monitor dual video card setup working | 18:11 |
| masterkiller | bwackninja: thanks, i just installed emerald but i dont think it is set as my window decorator. is fusion-icon similar? | 18:11 |
| MuDBluR | how can I redirect the ouput of the command time ? | 18:11 |
| BwackNinja | masterkiller: in compizconfig-settings-manager (ccsm, or advanced desktop effect settings in preferences) | 18:11 |
| sdbrother | peter86, it's goof | 18:11 |
| keram | and i need to figure out hte busid of each card to add to xorg.conf... but lspci -X does not work | 18:11 |
| sdbrother | good | 18:11 |
| BwackNinja | you can set the window decorator | 18:11 |
| mo_ | MuDBluR, ok .. i'll keep it to english if these channelfolks complain ... do you know if velox (or terra.. i hope you use this isp) block ssh ports? | 18:11 |
| unavailable | masterkiller fusion icon is just an icon so you can quickly open the compiz-fusion settings | 18:12 |
| BwackNinja | masterkiller: and installing emerald (somehow) dowsn't install themes | 18:12 |
| mo_ | MuDBluR: i just saw your hostname .. so i wanted to ask ;) | 18:12 |
| eth01 | BwackNinja: uname -a | 18:12 |
| humbolt | what is alsa's default sampling frequency in hardy? | 18:12 |
| keram | when i do lspci i get results that look like: 00:02.0 Display controller: Intel Corporation 82865G Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02), but what part is the busid? | 18:12 |
| BwackNinja | eth01: ? | 18:12 |
| mo_ | MuDBluR: you can redirect it with ... "command > destinationfile" or pipe it to another process ... "command_that_generates_output | command_that_eats_stdin" | 18:12 |
| eth01 | BwackNinja: open ssh. | 18:12 |
| MuDBluR | mo_: maybe they do this... but u can change the port to another | 18:12 |
| masterkiller | i'm in ccsm but do not see where to set my window manager =/ | 18:13 |
| genii | keram: Those first numbers | 18:13 |
| masterkiller | and ty for answer on fusion-icon | 18:13 |
| godlygeek | mo_: probably faster to change the port than to test if they're blocking the standard one... | 18:13 |
| joaopinto | mo_, I don't see any sane reason for a global ISP to block SSH | 18:13 |
| MuDBluR | mo_: this doesn't work with time command | 18:13 |
| unavailable | masterkiller ok then you would want the compiz-icon | 18:13 |
| BwackNinja | masterkiller: it is in window decoration | 18:13 |

| joaopinto | Kidfork, yes, as long it has a gz capable archive handler, like 7zip and friends | 18:16 |
| BwackNinja | set up radeonfb to work instead using vesafb? As far as I know, vesafb is giving me wrong colors on my console (dark green text instead of white) and the colors are mixed up on my shutdown usplash (I don't care as much about this, but I can probably assume it is related).

| SALIL | Hello , can someone recommend me on good email software for Ubuntu ? (supporting multi-email accounts ) | 19:16 |
| ASULutzy | Vaportrail123new: One would use ATI drivers say and the other would need Intel, so you would somehow need to use two drivers simultaneously. Having two outputs on one card is a lot different than having 2 outputs, one on your graphics card and one on your motherboard. | 19:16 |

| ASULutzy | narcoclepsy: Heh, I never bother installing Eclipse from repositories, it's a pain in the butt to chmod it so you can actually install plugins. I always just go to eclipse website and download/extract to /home/$USER/ | 19:36 |
| mdave7 | has anybody ever seen a whole load of errcode 530's and invalid user errors on boot? i'm coming up blank here. | 19:37 |

| Agent_bob | genii you around ? | 19:37 |
| Agent_bob | mdave7 from ? | 19:37 |
| mdave7 | Agent_bob: pretty much everything that's starting up servers | 19:38 |
| ASULutzy | narcoclepsy: Really? From my experience (this was several months ago at least) I installed eclipse with apt-get, and when I tried to download and install new plugins for Eclipse (such as Hibernate or Apache Derby), it wouldn't work unless I either ran eclipse with sudo (terrible idea) or bothered to change permissions. But why even bother to do that since eclipse requires no install--simply an extraction | 19:38 |
| Agent_bob | mdave7 you didn't change the name of root did you ? | 19:38 |
| mdave7 | for example, when syslog's starting i get chown: invalid user: `syslog:adm' | 19:38 |
| ASULutzy | Heh, so is there an Intrepid channel? I saw http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/gobuntu/daily/current/source/intrepid-src-1.iso and got excited :P | 19:38 |
| mdave7 | nope. i agree it looks like i messed up the passwd file | 19:38 |
| yousif | ASULutzy or Pici do you have any suggestion for me cause when i m using xvkbd -text "\A\ttest" with version 2.8 sometimes the first letter(s) of test are gone. | 19:39 |
| mdave7 | this is after an upgrade running on a xen vps | 19:39 |
| Agent_bob | mdave7 ok. you don't have either the adm group or the syslog user account | 19:39 |
| narcoclepsy | ASULutzy: coming from Gentoo... if i have a package manager i want it to be smart and do things for me so i can use my computer instead of spending all my time administrating my own machine :-) | 19:39 |
| narcoclepsy | (gentoo = recompile hell and heavy admin, or so at least i found, aside from that its fine...) | 19:39 |
| Thanatos____ | I downloaded googleearth.bin from google. I installed it. It sucks. How do I uninstall it? | 19:40 |
| ASULutzy | narcoclepsy: And 99/100 I agree with you 100%, installing from package manager is very useful and makes removal much easier. But specifically with Eclipse there's no need to "install" it really is as simple as extracting it, and running the binary | 19:40 |
| Ayabara | the wireless network on my gf's computer have gone mad. what can I delete to get rid of all the stored network setting I have entered and get a fresh start? | 19:40 |
| ASULutzy | narcoclepsy: And so to me, it's a lot more convenient and modular to just put it in /home/$USER/eclipse and it's good to go | 19:40 |
| mdave7 | Agent_bob: i'm just checking that now, but it looks like they're both there | 19:40 |

| ASULutzy | NetEcho: Network Manager/ | 19:44 |
| yousif | so is there a chance of solving this problem? | 19:45 |
| NetEcho | ASULutzy howcome I can't add it to a panel? | 19:45 |
| ASULutzy | NetEcho: What specifically are you trying to add to panel? By default Ubuntu should have nm-applet automatically on the top panel | 19:45 |
| NetEcho | ASULutzy it got removed | 19:45 |
| zyx386 | Pici, thanx but my chip is BCM5906M. is b43-fwcutter worked with that to on hardy? | 19:45 |
| ASULutzy | nm-applet 0.6.6.... I heard Intrepid wasn't going to have nm .7... That made me sad | 19:46 |

| swhitt | If I want to tar/gzip a directory named steve and everything inside it except for one directory named OldFiles, is there an easy way to do ? | 19:47 |
| turtlep | can desktop efects be used with vmware???????????? | 19:47 |
| Poprocks | Ayabara: have you tried deleting the wireless networks by right clicking on the tray icon and going to edit wireless networks? | 19:47 |
| yousif | ASULutzy any idea? | 19:47 |
| joaopinto | fill^ubu, uhh ? DHCP with manual IP ? | 19:47 |
| nickrud | turtlep inside vmware? no | 19:47 |
| Agent_bob | mdave7 ok. you've stumped me dude. maybe someone else can help you find it. | 19:47 |
| turtlep | y? | 19:47 |
| joaopinto | turtlep, no, because vmware does not support video hw 3d | 19:47 |
| ^Ocean^ | fill^ubu: DHCP Is what sets your IP address | 19:47 |
| YeaSt | hello | 19:47 |
| mdave7 | thanks anyway. i've googled this to death :-) | 19:48 |
| ASULutzy | NetEcho: Hmmm, let me see... I can see what you're saying that network monitor isn't the same as network manager | 19:48 |
| Jack_Sparrow | swhitt --exclude = path/file | 19:48 |
| yousif | ASULutzy i ve tried your way and it is still not working | 19:48 |
| NetEcho | ASULutzy the default application got deleted | 19:48 |
| Agent_bob | mdave7 if you ask in ##linux someone might know | 19:48 |
| fill^ubu | joaopinto: yes, you can choose the ip yoursel but gateway, dns, and that stuff is taken care by DHCP | 19:48 |
| swhitt | Jack_Sparrow: can I have it ignore all dotfiles too? | 19:48 |
| NetEcho | I'm trying to add it back to the panel | 19:48 |
| Ayabara | Poprocks: no. I'll test it now | 19:48 |
| mdave7 | Agent_bob: okay, thanks. | 19:48 |

| nickrud | NetEcho do you have the notification area on the panel? If you don't, you won't see the nm-applet | 19:49 |
| Olsson21 | Hello everyone! | 19:49 |
| ASULutzy | NetEcho: heh, this is embarrassing. Jack_Sparrow do you know how to add network manager back to the panel? The "Network Monitor" in the default "Add to Panel" isn't the same thing | 19:49 |
| Randy | I have a Biostar mainboard with SATA Hd and CD Rom and can't insataall 8.04 because it will not work with Geforce 8200 chipset any sujustion | 19:49 |

| ASULutzy | nickrud, NetEcho, Jack_Sparrow: Oh, you need notification area? heh :-[ | 19:50 |
| fill^ubu | joaopinto: or in other words, ask for a particular ip when looking for dhcp loans | 19:50 |
| Olsson21 | Anyone here that is very fimiliar to Wine? Need to get some bloody windows software to work. | 19:50 |
| ShinjinAkage | I'm sorta new to Linux and just noticed that deleted files still show when I list the contents of a directory in the terminal. Is this supposed to happen as a way restoring accidental deleted files? If so, how long will they remain like this? | 19:50 |
| Pici | Olsson21: The people in #winehq are really familiar with Wine | 19:50 |
| joaopinto | fill^ubu, you can do that with the regular ubuntu DHCP client just edit /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf | 19:50 |
| nickrud | Mohammad[B] gstreamer0.10-dev | 19:50 |
| Pici | ShinjinAkage: How did you delete the files? | 19:50 |
| Olsson21 | Thanks Pici! | 19:50 |
| fill^ubu | joaopinto: thanks | 19:50 |
| fill^ubu | ! | 19:50 |
| yousif | guys just tell me go away if you dont want to help. i mean i ve been waiting here for so long. | 19:51 |
| Jack_Sparrow | swhitt tar cvpzf backup.tgz --exclude=/backup.tgz --exclude=/DontIncludeMe -- /home/jack or whatever folder you want to do | 19:51 |
| joaopinto | fill^ubu, as in, I know you can select what to get, not sure you can request for a specific IP, check it :) | 19:51 |
| ShinjinAkage | Pici: I just clicked them and pressed delete to send them to the trash and then empty the trash. | 19:51 |
| zyx386 | is correct on Hardy BCM4328 worked just with NdisWarapper?? or worked with B43 to? | 19:51 |
| joaopinto | !patience | yousif | 19:51 |
| ubottu | yousif: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 19:51 |
| swhitt | Jack_Sparrow: thanks much | 19:51 |
| Pici | ShinjinAkage: Then they should no longer be available in the source folder | 19:51 |
| ShinjinAkage | Pici: They have the ~ symbol after them if that means anything. | 19:51 |
| Jack_Sparrow | swhitt Double check that to be sure | 19:51 |
| GeoffTheFish | What is the difference between chroot and root. I have the option of having full root on a dedicated server, but losing software support. Or going full root and being in full control. Presumabaly I need to be full root to update the OS and stuff??? | 19:52 |
| Keith_M_ | Hi, I'm having the problem with Alsa/PulseAudio and Flash and can't find the fix on the forums. | 19:52 |
| swhitt | Jack_Sparrow: using your info to search manpage :) thanks a lot | 19:52 |
| ASULutzy | yousif: I've never used the application and am not familiar with it at all. You asked how to install it and I offered what advice I could, but again this is ubuntu-support, not specifically insertAppYouBuiltFromSourceHere support. Sorry I can't be more helpful :( | 19:52 |
| Mohammad[B] | nickrud, E: Couldn't find package gstreamer0.10-dev | 19:52 |
| bardyr | Hey, i have a promo USB pen, the problem is that it is formatted as 2 devices, a sr1: scsi3-mmc drive: 40x/40x writer cd/rw xa/form2 cdda tray, and a normal partition, how can i delete the sr1, gparted cant find it | 19:52 |
| nickrud | GeoffTheFish yes, you want full root. chroot is usually used to isolate an app from the rest of the system, a security measure | 19:52 |
| Mohammad[B] | nickrud, my ubuntu in 7.10 | 19:52 |
| Jack_Sparrow | swhitt np | 19:52 |
| joaopinto | GeoffTheFish, chroot has no relation with root, whatever your question about, if you want to do OS upgrades etc, then yes, you need root privileges | 19:52 |
| ArrPirate | I know this is not the place to ask but I don't really have a lot of choice and I'm panicking. Can someone point me to the right server/channel so that I could find help for custom firmware on my router (specifically OpenWRT)? | 19:52 |
| GeoffTheFish | nickrud excellent thanks :) | 19:52 |
| nickrud | Mohammad[B] ah, do apt-cache search gstreamer | grep dev | 19:53 |
| Pici | ShinjinAkage: Those are backup files created when you were editing the files with gedit, or some other text editor. By default they are hidden files. | 19:53 |
| bardyr | ArrPirate, #openwrt ? | 19:53 |
| Jester45 | ArrPirate: maybe openwrt's irc channel? | 19:53 |
| andycan | does recovery mode have net support? | 19:53 |
| ArrPirate | drrr | 19:53 |
| ArrPirate | I didn't know they had a channel here | 19:53 |
| Randy | Dose any one know how to make a custum kernel 8.04 So it will reconise my Geforce SATA | 19:53 |
| nickrud | andycan not be default, no. | 19:54 |

| fill^ubu | forgot about tht | 19:54 |
| fill^ubu | that | 19:54 |
| RichW | Randy: Its not something i could tell you on irc.. there are some guides.. google it. | 19:54 |
| mjfrazer | nickrud: apt-cache pkgnames | grep is also good | 19:54 |
| nickrud | mjfrazer um, don't you need 'search' in that ? | 19:55 |
| andycan | nickrud: a friend of mine is trying to install ubuntu hardy, but he gets drive not ready when trying to boot up. I read that the new kernel update fixes it. How can he update in recovery console? | 19:55 |
| RichW | Randy: And be warned.. closed source graphics will break on custom kernel. | 19:55 |
| joaopinto | fiXXXerMet, alt-enter ? | 19:55 |
| zyx386 | hardy have solution for CHipset BCM4328 wireless, or most use NDISwarapper? | 19:55 |
| Randy | Okay I was just wondering | 19:55 |
| mjfrazer | nickrud: apt-cache pkgnames lists _all_ packages so you can grep through the full list | 19:55 |
| nickrud | andycan if you can set him up with a static ip in /etc/network/interfaces , sudo /etc/init.d/networking start should do it | 19:55 |
| mib_92mr51 | i need help | 19:55 |
| yousif | ASULutzy i m really sorry i ll try to solve it again. thanks for everyting. bye :) | 19:56 |

| Moes | Anyone know a workaround for bug in Firefox 3 pertaining to offline | 20:03 |
| Ayabara | Poprocks: I'm considering a fresh install on her system | 20:03 |
| mib_92mr51 | Nero | 20:03 |
| Poprocks | Ayabara: when you say 'enable wireless' is gone - is it just unchecked when you right click, or is it just not there at all | 20:04 |
| coz_ | mib_92mr51, ok what you do is open nero and go into the menus to look for burn cd image | 20:04 |
| Ayabara | Poprocks: not there at all | 20:04 |
| mib_92mr51 | i did | 20:04 |
| Poprocks | Ayabara: but connection information, etc. is? | 20:04 |
| mib_92mr51 | then said Burn Bootable Data Disc | 20:04 |
| coz_ | mib_92mr51, something to that effect I dont have windows open here so I cant get to nero right now | 20:04 |

| Pici | n00bs_r_ppl_too: This channel is for support, if you want to talk about other distros you can join #ubuntu-offtopic | 20:05 |
| mib_92mr51 | how do I get it to an image | 20:05 |
| coz_ | mib_92mr51, you already have the image | 20:05 |
| mib_92mr51 | it downloads as a rar | 20:05 |
| joaopinto | mib_92mr51, the .iso is an image, you need a software to record it, like infrarecorder | 20:05 |
| coz_ | mib_92mr51, just tell nero to burn an image of the downloaded rar | 20:05 |
| mib_92mr51 | i did | 20:05 |
| mib_92mr51 | >< | 20:05 |
| joaopinto | mib_92mr51, uh ? www.ubuntu.com, is is not a .rar, it's a .iso | 20:05 |
| coz_ | mib_92mr51, oh then you downloaded the wrong cd | 20:05 |
| ASULutzy | mib_92mr51, coz_: Where did you get a .rar? All the official downloads are .isos | 20:05 |
| Ayabara | Poprocks: when I leftclick I see "Wired Network" unchecked and greyed out so I can't change it, and "Manual Configuration" | 20:05 |
| remi_ | does anyone know a good GUI FTP client for Gnome (except for FileZilla and gFTP) ? | 20:05 |
| coz_ | mib_92mr51, it should download as an .iso | 20:06 |
| joaopinto | remi_, nautilus :) ? | 20:06 |
| EvilDennisR | mib_92mr51: Did the thought ever cross your mind that if you're experiencing this much trouble, and need a walk-thru /just/ to burn an ISO image, maybe linux isn't the best fit for you? | 20:06 |
| ASULutzy | remi_: You could always use the built in Places -> connect to server :P | 20:06 |

| ASULutzy | EvilDennisR, mib_92mr51: It's not like any of us are born pc gurus. But mib, you should download the .iso from ubuntu.com, I don't really know how you ended up with a .rar. Once you have the .iso, tell your CD burning application that you want to "Burn a disc image" and point it towards the .iso | 20:07 |

| amrik | Hi how can I get evolution to pgp encrypt messages by default? | 20:09 |
| __ryan__ | what exactly does pulseaudio do? i have to kill it sometimes for my sound to work | 20:09 |
| coz_ | mib_92mr51, then that should show up on the desktop as a .iso file | 20:09 |
| ArrPirate | joaopinto: I don't see where that tells me my computer's on '192.168.1.10', for example | 20:09 |
| oCLioN | */30 * * * * /usr/local/bin/ultrastatsparser.sh .. is there something wrong in this crontab ? .. shouldnt it run every 30th minutes ?? | 20:09 |
| coz_ | mib_92mr51, then you tell nero to burn an image and direct it to that file | 20:09 |
| ASULutzy | EvilDennisR: I suppose, but I don't think there are any invalid questions so long as they are ubuntu support related... I mean just because something is very simple for you or me to do doesn't mean it's that way for everything. And I'm certainly no Stallman, there's lots of stuff I don't get either :P | 20:09 |
| Ayabara | Poprocks: I have rebooted a dozen times. does that count? | 20:10 |
| joaopinto | Aragon, it displays inet addr:your_ip_is_here | 20:10 |
| Poprocks | Ayabara: yes | 20:10 |
| Ayabara | Poprocks: reinstall then :-). thanks for helping | 20:10 |
| coz_ | mib_92mr51, let me boot into windows and fine the menu in nero for th is hold on for about 5 minutes | 20:10 |
| mib_92mr51 | i'll tell you if it works | 20:10 |
| mib_92mr51 | i found how to burn it >< | 20:10 |
| ArrPirate | That seems to be my external IP address... it's like 24.0.0.0 instead of 192.0.0.0 | 20:11 |
| Jester45 | ArrPirate: it will say inet addr:192.168.0.110 | 20:11 |
| Poprocks | Ayabara: good luck with that | 20:11 |
| ArrPirate | Jester45: it doesn't say this | 20:11 |
| andycan | Where can i specify dns configuration? | 20:11 |
| Jester45 | replacing that address with what address your network card is using | 20:11 |
| EvilDennisR | andycan: /etc/resolv.conf is for nameservers | 20:12 |
| Jester45 | ArrPirate: is the card active? | 20:12 |
| ArrPirate | Jester45: Seems to be. I'm talking to you using it | 20:12 |

| Jester45 | ArrPirate: well... dont get mad but computer can use 2 more more nics | 20:13 |
| Jester45 | or more* | 20:13 |
| ArrPirate | Jester45: The only 'inet addr:' line for my card shows my external ip address | 20:13 |
| daemon3 | Can anybody tell me of a good SVN GUI client? SVN always seems to copy all the files in the repository, and I'm too lazy to go advanced with SVN. | 20:13 |
| daemon3 | Thanks. | 20:13 |
| Jester45 | then thats the address the card is using | 20:13 |
| ArrPirate | Jester45: Oh, I wasn't getting mad or being sarcastic. I was being serious. The card seems to be active because I'm using it to connect here. | 20:13 |
| ArrPirate | So it's bypassing my router altogether then? | 20:14 |
| andycan | EvilDennisR: Thing is, i cant run normal mode because it hangs before it can load. Im trying to get net working so i can do apt-get upgrade | 20:14 |
| coz_ | mib_92mr51, ok I am in windows now | 20:14 |
| coz_ | mib_92mr51, open neroi | 20:14 |
| coz_ | nero | 20:14 |
| Jester45 | ArrPirate: or your router/modem is in bridge mode | 20:14 |
| EvilDennisR | andycan: Ah, I see.. Are you in rescue mode ? | 20:14 |
| Poprocks | Ayabara: seems the only way I was able to fully reproduce your problem was to disable roaming mode, but I'm assuming yours is enabled now | 20:14 |
| andycan | EvilDennisR: Yes | 20:15 |
| ASULutzy | daemon3: They make lots of plugins for IDE's that I've liked. Subclipse was a cool subversion plugin for the Eclipse IDE. As far as something like TortoiseSVN for Linux, I'm not sure... There's esvn or kdesvn for KDE users... | 20:15 |
| coz_ | mib_92mr51, you still here | 20:15 |
| Flannel | daemon3: Theres esvn, rapidsvn, svnworkbench, and a nautilus script thing (so it integrates with your file manager) called nautilus-script-collection-svn | 20:15 |
| daemon3 | Hm. Thanks. | 20:15 |
| Jester45 | ArrPirate: i dont know how your network is setup but that address is the address of the network card... | 20:15 |
| andycan | EvilDennisR: ifconfig hangs, ive specified the addresses in /etc/network/interfaces and then done /etc/init.d/networking start but nothing, it doesnt ping (not even gateway) it says network unreachable | 20:16 |
| ArrPirate | Jester45: I have my cable modem going to my router and my computer is hooked to my router | 20:16 |
| Ayabara | Poprocks: not sure, since the option to enable/disable is gone.. | 20:16 |
| coz_ | mib_92mr51, if you are here let me know I dont want to stay in windows too long :) | 20:17 |
| Poprocks | Ayabara: huh, the one in the system tray or the one in system -> administration -> network? | 20:17 |
| wigren | how do i get open office to recognize a manually installed font? in the past i would open nautilus as root and put the font folder in /usr/share/fonts that doesn't seem to do the trick in 8.04 | 20:18 |
| Ayabara | Poprocks: the one in the system tray. reinstalling now anyway, so we'll see if that fixes it | 20:18 |

| Poprocks | Ayabara: ok... what I meant though was the one in system->admin... disabling wireless roaming mode in there gave me the same problem you described | 20:19 |
| Poprocks | but if you're reinstalling the whole OS now, I guess that should, incidentally, fix it | 20:19 |

| ASULutzy | eMaX_: So if running the command I gave didn't work... Hmmm... Basically I can't really give good advice where to start... You'll certainly want to install the correct graphics drivers, maybe reinstall compiz... | 20:36 |

| whileimhere | hi I am trying to install via a .deb file a program called Anki. I downloaded it from here: http://ichi2.net/anki/download/index.html When I try to install it I get a message that says "Error Dependency is not satisfiable: python-sqlalchemy". I looked in my Synaptic and that package was there. I installed it and tried the .deb file once more. Again it produces the same error. Any ideas on how to get past this? | 20:37 |
| ASULutzy | eMaX_: You said you already had ubuntu installed on this laptop and then you moved it from Laptop A to Laptop B, right? | 20:37 |
| eMaX_ | ASULutzy, thanks anyway | 20:37 |

| ASULutzy | eMaX_: And they weren't the same laptop? If they weren't the same, I'm surprised it works as well it does... Go linux... Anyway if they have different graphics cards you'll need to install the correct drivers for the new laptop, maybe reinstall compiz... But honestly I would consider just backing up home and reinstalling, who knows :P | 20:38 |
| windmill | negge, the summary of the install is pretty much this: You download three files on to the stick (one of which is the iso, one is a kernel image and one is a ram disk image) then use syslinux to make it bootable. | 20:38 |
| ChaosParser | IanXX: 32bit | 20:38 |

| iank | Mohammad[B]: 'perl developer package' ? | 21:15 |
| negge | windmill is the "loading initrd.gz" part supposed to take over a minute | 21:15 |
| WalloO | eMaX, you want your system to start alone or just to start it by pressing your keyboard? | 21:15 |
| Mohammad[B] | i need perl developer package please help me | 21:15 |
| ibrahimm | I have twin view set up on hardy with nvidia 7400, is there some way to make the other monitor display my second workspace instead of each monitor having two workspaces of thier own | 21:15 |
| Mohammad[B] | yes | 21:15 |
| Mohammad[B] | iank, yes | 21:15 |
| iank | Mohammad[B]: what on earth do you mean by 'perl developer package' ? | 21:15 |
| iank | eMaX_: I think that rather depends on your hardware and/or bios, doesn't it? | 21:15 |
| flakrat | what is the equiv command to "rpm -q" on RH to query whether or not a package is installed | 21:16 |
| eMaX_ | WalloO, well normally I hit some "FN" button to restart from suspend to ram :) | 21:16 |
| srizz | my title bar (with close minimize etc.) in firefox is gone, i can't figure out how to bring it back | 21:16 |

| Mohammad[B] | iank, Perl development headers not found. | 21:16 |
| WalloO | eMaX_, ha, ok. | 21:16 |
| eMaX_ | ok first I'll go and wire s2ram into gnome and then I'lls ee :) | 21:16 |
| windmill | negge, just keep watching the dots :) | 21:16 |
| negge | windmill okay I'm at the installation screen now (can't believe it took that long, when I used the shell script it took less than one second) | 21:16 |
| iank | Mohammad[B]: oh. Did you try searching apt? (You probably want libperl-dev) | 21:17 |
| pen | how do I force nautilus to show the movie thumbnail?? | 21:17 |

| amnesia | bardyr, fbthpg system-monitor seems to show both my cores used. It was strange because /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1 has "online" in it, but cpu0 doesn't. And dmesg seems to have strange messages around CPU1 going offline and online | 21:17 |
| srizz | yeah it will only go fullscreen | 21:17 |
| negge | windmill I'll report back if I get any errors | 21:17 |

| rogue_trader | spoonman, I use the ATI drivers from the ubuntu repository | 21:18 |
| bardyr | amnesia, it can be the cpu's powersaving feature or scaling feature | 21:18 |

| metalpres | so when i was using Gutsy my ntfs drives would automatically mount on boot, now with hardy they are seen but dont mount automatically so stuff that was auto starting from those drives now cant, but if i click the drive it opens right up | 22:07 |
| impulse | eraldo: impulse wasnt an answer :) .. i'm impulse :( | 22:07 |
| metalpres | how can i fix that so those drives come right up | 22:07 |
| Jack_Sparrow | metalpres edit your fstab... | 22:07 |
| Bl4ckcomb | /etc/fstab | 22:07 |
| eraldo | Scunizi: "[23:04:51] < Scunizi> eraldo: impulse there is." ..the homepage of that software | 22:08 |
| spoonman | !fstab | 22:08 |
| ubottu | The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions | 22:08 |
| starbucks | Oh and two things...How do I make a program start at well...startup. And how do I make it so firefox starts in online mode automatically without me manually having to change it each time? | 22:08 |
| metalpres | what do i put in there? just change a line? | 22:08 |
| ^Ocean^ | Jack_Sparrow, Okay I changed my sources list too that one, And no differance, they all still fail. | 22:08 |
| Scunizi | eraldo: that was an answer to both you and impulse about the availability to Gizmo for ubuntu.. the answer "there is" | 22:08 |
| Bl4ckcomb | metalpres, make a backup before you change it ;) | 22:08 |
| Jack_Sparrow | ^Ocean^ did you sudo apt-get update first | 22:09 |
| ^Ocean^ | Jack_Sparrow, Yuppers | 22:09 |
| spoonman | ^Ocean^, when in doubt, try rebooting -- some changes don't take effect until you do | 22:09 |
| Scunizi | eraldo: unless I was speaking like yoda.. in which case I would understand your confusion | 22:09 |
| eraldo | Scunizi: oups sorry misunderstood that | 22:09 |
| HybridZero | starbucks: For startup programs, it's under System -> Preferences -> Sessions | 22:09 |
| metalpres | my drives are not listed in fstab though, only my main drive and my burner, so something else must be mounting them... | 22:09 |
| HybridZero | Not sure about the firefox offline mode though | 22:09 |
| ^Ocean^ | spoonman, I have tryed rebooting as well | 22:09 |
| starbucks | HybridZero: Alright thanks...and then theres the stupid firefox program... | 22:10 |
| metalpres | if i had them mount in fstab wont that cause the drive to be mounted twice? | 22:10 |
| unavailable | Jack_Sparrow so what makes you think that i do not have a true ubuntu distro? | 22:10 |
| Bl4ckcomb | MetaBot: maybe a mount-script, but static mounts are listed in fstab | 22:10 |

| edj | lost network-manager and trying to install it from dpkg. but it reports that a dependencyis missing - libnl1-pre6. there is no such package, it is replaced by libnl1, which i have. so, what next? | 22:10 |
| Jack_Sparrow | unavailable I dont care to discuss it.. as it is ot in here. | 22:10 |
| spoonman | edj, have you tried installing from synaptic? | 22:11 |
| Bl4ckcomb | metalpres, you should read http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html | 22:11 |
| metalpres | i never did anything to get the drives working, they just worked right away on a fresh hardy install, so its something either standard to ubuntu or gnome | 22:11 |
| edj | spoonman: no network connection. | 22:11 |
| unavailable | Jack_Sparrow no it really isnt because if i downloaded a non official distro from ubuntu.com I would like to know about it so i can report it. | 22:11 |
| metalpres | i have no problem adding it to fstab, but how would i remove whatever is mounting them currently so i dont have 2 copies of each | 22:11 |
| Pxrboy | is anyone any good with Vent under Wine? | 22:12 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Pxrboy /join #winehq | 22:12 |
| Pxrboy | ah ok | 22:12 |
| unavailable | jack_sparrow if you can give me a command to type in terminal to verify that i do have an official distro, | 22:12 |
| Bl4ckcomb | metalpres: every drive that is mounted while booting IS in fstab, unless you've changed something. So no duplicate mounts will take place if you didn't do anything else and just change your fstab | 22:13 |

| lionstone | Hi, I think something may be wrong with the 64-bit download: ubuntu forums ubuntu-8.04-desktop-amd64.iso . I've downloaded twice from two different mirrors, burned copies with two different burners, and continue to fail CD validation. The md5 sum checks out fine on the files, though. | 23:14 |
| NickGarvey | lionstone: can you md5 the CD after you burn it? | 23:15 |
| n00bs_r_ppl_too | jewsus, iirc, sudo apt-get install restricted-ubuntu-(something) | 23:15 |
| lionstone | the installer loads but quits mid-way through partitioning | 23:15 |

| pen | or change the video artist information? | 23:15 |

| Schuenemann | NickGarvey, does that produce the same md5 as the iso? | 23:16 |
| NickGarvey | Schuenemann: if the burn was right :) | 23:16 |
| Blaqlight | I think it was. I was going for 8.04 dvd install.... had to install kubuntu 6.2 or something and then upgrade the installs. | 23:16 |
| Schuenemann | yeah, sure | 23:17 |
