|---|---|---|
| koshari | ok what radio button have you got ticked? is it one of the bottom 2? | 00:00 |
| gnomefreak | sun01tech: make sure you have updates repos enabled as well | 00:00 |
| gnomefreak | since we push it through -updates | 00:00 |
| PaulM | RainCT: Nope, it gives me a "cannot stat filename" on all the files with spaces in their name | 00:00 |
| philsf | unop: I guess the ideal for me would be to use en_BR, if such locale existed | 00:00 |
| ShinjinAkage | Koshari: No, "none" is clicked and if I try one of the lower ones I get the message "desktop effects could not be enabled". | 00:00 |
| unop | philsf, errm, no :) | 00:01 |
| koshari | ShinjinAkage hmmm, ok, what gpu do you have? | 00:01 |
| ShinjinAkage | Keshari: How can I tell? | 00:01 |
| gnomefreak | sun01tech: open system > admin > software sources and make sure you enable all of them | 00:02 |
| koshari | ShinjinAkage does, either nvidii, intel graphics, or ati radeon ring a bell? | 00:02 |
| sun01tech | gnomefreak: thanks... i forgot i only had the security updates checked not recommended updates | 00:03 |
| gnomefreak | sun01tech: your welcome | 00:03 |
| ShinjinAkage | Keshari: Nope, I didn't buy the card though. Just sorta randomly accumulate them. | 00:03 |
| gnomefreak | luke__: i have to leave but searching for your package atleat the description of the package should help you out finding the one you want. | 00:04 |
| koshari | ShinjinAkage type compiz in a terminal and pastebucket the results | 00:04 |
| philsf | unop: thanks for the pointer | 00:04 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | keshari - aint that awesome? | 00:04 |
| RainCT | PaulM: try find -maxdepth 1 | xargs -I{} cp -r '{}' /media/endpoint | 00:04 |
| sun01tech | now it says 197 recommended updates, do i just install everything or just be selective? | 00:04 |
| luke__ | thats what i did | 00:04 |
| RainCT | PaulM: if you want to filter on something put a grep whatever* | before the xargs | 00:04 |
| unop | RainCT, careful, you really ought to use find -print0 and xargs -0 there, spaces and other characters are still not quoted properly | 00:04 |
| PaulM | RainCT, unop: I'm not trying to filter something... just move these windows XP files from a recovery partition to another. | 00:06 |
| PaulM | The specific error I'm getting is: "cp: cannot stat `/media/40max/found.000/dir0000.chk/0x0409.ini': No such file or directory" | 00:06 |

| koshari | you will need to know what gpu you have | 00:07 |
| ShinjinAkage | Keshari: Okay, the link is http://pastebin.com/m342f77ac | 00:07 |

| arooni | Jack_Sparrow, does it matter if i move my hard drive (that i dd's everything from the dying one) to a new IDE channel? | 00:07 |
| koshari | ]ShinjinAkage sorry lspci | 00:08 |
| blackmad | this is a t41 if it matters | 00:08 |
| Jack_Sparrow | arooni to the primary ide.. yes | 00:08 |
| Jack_Sparrow | arooni make sure all the jumpers are right | 00:08 |
| arooni | Jack_Sparrow, i was going to simply move it to where the old one was (primary slave) | 00:08 |

| DeadKennedy2880 | ShinjinAkage - ati rage line tells ya | 00:12 |
| koshari | ShinjinAkage ok your problem is you have a Rage 128 gpu which cannot handle compiz :-( do you have another gpu you could use? i take it you have a agp2 stssem, | 00:12 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | koshari - thats what i thought, compiz need a little more | 00:12 |
| ShinjinAkage | I have a ton of other cards laying around but no idea what type each of them are. | 00:12 |
| koshari | ShinjinAkage even if you could snag a nvidia mx2 card it would likely give you the basic functions. | 00:13 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | ShinjinAkage read the chips and do google search | 00:13 |
| unop | PaulM, you could try copying using this command after unmounting and remounting the partition. tar clf /path/to/directory | tar xf - -C /path/to/new_directory | 00:13 |
| arooni | Jack_Sparrow, whats the best way to test if dd did its work correctly (besides losing the old drive and moving the new drive to where it was) | 00:13 |

| Jack_Sparrow | arooni move them and test them... | 00:13 |
| MannyCalavera | Hi everybody. I'm new to Linux and I want to install the MPlayer. I've never compiled from source, at least successfully :D So I read the documentation, saying I have to enter "./configure" in the folder where I extracted the tar.bz2 package. When I do so, it lists a lot of stuff and at the end it says "Error: cannot find either inttypes.h or bittypes.h. There is no chance for compilation to succeed." I'm kinda trapped, I have no idea | 00:13 |
| phoenixz | 3G modems should also work on Linux, not? | 00:13 |
| RickJames | MannyCalavera : sudo apt-get install mplayer | 00:14 |
| unop | MannyCalavera, why don't you install mplayer from the repsositories | 00:14 |
| unop | ? | 00:14 |
| phoenixz | MannyCalavera: Why not install it with apt-get? synaptics? | 00:14 |
| koshari | ShinjinAkage ideally you would want at least a nvidia 5*** or greater add on card, | 00:14 |
| phoenixz | MannyCalavera: What unop says.. | 00:14 |
| arooni | Jack_Sparrow, what am i testing? also i need to wipe the drive;; is it ok to still have the old drive in the system ? | 00:14 |
| runjorel | anybody knowledgable about networking and pptpd ? | 00:14 |
| arooni | so i can delete all files? | 00:14 |
| ShinjinAkage | Okay, I'll go look, Bye | 00:14 |
| MannyCalavera | Wow, you're fast! I can install using that command? | 00:14 |
| unop | MannyCalavera, yes | 00:15 |
| koshari | ShinjinAkage however as i said earlier at least a mx series card would give you basic compiz on say 1080*800ect | 00:15 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | koshari - nice thankyou there | 00:15 |
| unop | MannyCalavera, and you should be using that command rather that build from source, it's the recommended way | 00:15 |
| runjorel | Does anyone know I can have anyone on subnet 192.168.2.x see systems on 192.168.1.x? | 00:16 |
| MannyCalavera | unop, thanks! What if I want to compile some program that isn't in the repository? | 00:16 |
| Tyreus | Hi, im looking for a partition backup programm wich can make differential (?) backups like acronis true image. Any ideas? | 00:16 |
| Jack_Sparrow | arooni not right now | 00:16 |
| arooni | Jack_Sparrow, are you saying you're not really available to answer qs? or that i cant have the other drive in the system | 00:16 |
| unop | MannyCalavera, well, then you have no choice but to build from source -- but whereever possible, try and use the packages already build for you | 00:16 |
| cohete | My bluetooth headset shows up as a sound card, but I am unable to use it. I could really use some help! | 00:16 |

| Jack_Sparrow | arooni both | 00:17 |
| arooni | Jack_Sparrow, ok ;p | 00:17 |
| unop | runjorel, the only way is to setup a router that connects both those segments up | 00:17 |

| MannyCalavera | Ok, thanks a lot, unop. For now i like the change, Ubuntu is really fast and does everything i need :) | 00:18 |
| unop | runjorel, but setting up a router is less complex | 00:18 |
| Blaqlight | thing is I didn't change the permissions in the first place. | 00:18 |
| m-c | !ask |tamajama | 00:18 |

| Jack_Sparrow | arooni np | 00:18 |
| unop | MannyCalavera, enjoy the experience - welcome to ubuntu :) | 00:18 |
| blackmad | do you actually have two separate networks, or do you want to have one network with 512 IPs? | 00:18 |
| runjorel | unop, yeah I can see setting up a static route on a router...the only thing is, people are vpn'ing into my box... | 00:18 |
| demism | I have an ATI Radeon mobility x600 do I use fglrx or the other one? | 00:19 |
| unop | runjorel, provided you setup the router properly, existing network communication should be unaffected really | 00:19 |

| runjorel | unop, I gotchya, just trying to see if there is another way than getting another router. | 00:20 |
| m-c | desism - there is an open source version on it's way out soon - you might check on the status for your card | 00:20 |
| unop | runjorel, well, what i meant really is setup one of those machines as a router | 00:20 |
| Jack_Sparrow | demism the other one | 00:20 |
| pub | what is the terminal command to see which graphics card i have installed | 00:21 |
| Blaqlight | m-c, ls: cannot open directory /media/cdrom0: Permission denied | 00:21 |
| runjorel | unop, lol, I think that may be beyond my skill level :) | 00:21 |
| zcat[1] | pub, lspci will probably tell you | 00:21 |
| unop | runjorel, pretty much all you need is to enable ip forwarding in the kernel and setup your dhcp server to assign a default route to it's clients pointing at the new default gateway | 00:21 |
| Blaqlight | m-c, when I sudo though it reads it fine. says 400 | 00:21 |
| m-c | Blaqlight: the mount point is the directory name | 00:21 |
| MTecknology | How can i get logged into the postgresql console? | 00:21 |
| unop | runjorel, it's not hard - there are plenty of howtos out there dedicated for this task | 00:22 |
| runjorel | unop, I got ip forwarding on and working. Dont have a DHCP turned on | 00:22 |
| pub | zcat; yah thanks i thought it was something else^^ | 00:22 |

| runjorel | unop, yes sir | 00:22 |

| m-c | Blaqlight: Your ownership is wrong - change with the chown command | 00:23 |
| unop | runjorel, errm, yes -- but not necessarily, if both subnets connect upto the same physical switch - then the router only needs one nic | 00:24 |
| Blaqlight | m-c, to? | 00:24 |
| koshari | PuppyTux whats gebuntu? | 00:24 |
| cohete | arooni: 1. probably not if the copy worked. 2. see the program shred. might be faster to go to the hardware store and get a heavy duty drill or something | 00:24 |
| tamajama | :) | 00:24 |
| tamajama | :'( | 00:25 |
| steve|pearce | PuppyTux: They now work under the name "OpenGEU" | 00:25 |
| arooni | cohete, but wont putting in two identical drives mess linux up? | 00:25 |
| unop | runjorel, but what is needed is one machine with two ip addresses tho - i.e. a multi-homed machine so that it exists in both subnets and provides a default gateway for both | 00:25 |

| cohete | arooni your computer will pick one of them to boot from. the other one will be ignored unless you mount it (or maybe mounted automatically, not sure). either way, shouldn't be a problem. just make sure you know which you are booting from | 00:26 |
| m-c | eljaco: As a last resort, you can reinstall ubuntu | 00:26 |
| bikodog | how do i locate a pci card within ubuntu? | 00:26 |
| eljaco | MannyCalavera, should be under Applications -> Video & Sound -> MPlayer | 00:26 |
| arooni | cohete, how do i know which one it booted from | 00:26 |
| eljaco | m-c, how can I do that without wiping my data? | 00:26 |
| cohete | arooni easiest and least confusing is to unplug one of them after you copy the data over | 00:26 |
| MannyCalavera | oh, silly me. Thank you eljaco! | 00:26 |
| pub | zcat any command to view the current graphics drivers installed? | 00:26 |
| eljaco | m-c, or should I just back it up and reinstall/ | 00:26 |
| m-c | eljaco: Did you put your /home on a separate partition? | 00:27 |
| Bodsda | MannyCalavera, the executables are usually in /usr/bin but to run it you normally just use the app anme in a terminal | 00:27 |
| unop | runjorel, basically all you do is assign that machine two ip addresses, one in the 192.168.1.x network, another in the 192.168.2.x network - you then need to make this multi-homed machine a router, for that you setup ip_forwarding and proper routes -- it might be best to look for a howto on this | 00:27 |
| cohete | arooni otherwise you need to change bios settings to tell it which one to boot | 00:27 |
| eljaco | m-c, I have two hard drives, but /home is int he same drive as all the other linux stuff (The other hard drive has my Windows partition) | 00:27 |
| ShinjinAkage | Koshia still here? | 00:27 |
| runjorel | unop, ok...I didnt know I could assign one nic multiple addresses | 00:27 |
| unop | runjorel, sure you can, pretty much any OS provides that capability | 00:28 |
| corhere | On my laptop running Hardy, selecting Suspend from the Quit button puts the machine into a suspend that the computer does not wake up from. Executing "sudo pm-suspend" from the command-line sleeps the machine and allows it to wake up successfully. How can I make it so that suspending normally will allow the machine to wake? | 00:28 |
| m-c | eljaco: consider putting /home on a separate partition next time - so this does not bite you again. | 00:28 |
| m-c | eljaco: So, if you back up /home , then you will probably have every bit of your user data | 00:28 |
| runjorel | unop, cool...yeah when it comes to networking I am not very knowledgeable..still learning on my own. | 00:28 |
| eljaco | m-c, roger, I'll back it up and wipe it - thanks | 00:28 |
| cohete | arooni if you have booted and aren't sure which hard drive you are using, but they have e.g. different manufacturers, you can figure out which one is active by mucking around in udevinfo and /sys, but its kind of a hassle | 00:28 |
| PuppyTux | Thank you found it | 00:29 |
| unop | runjorel, well, neither am i - i've just encountered the wish to setup something like this before | 00:29 |
| m-c | eljaco: it's so easy to reinstall ubuntu, I find myself doing it often | 00:29 |
| eljaco | m-c, hehe, ok, I'll learn from this mistake | 00:29 |

| === mehteenager is now known as MrObvious | ||
| Bodsda | m-c, i usually fix the issue, do something stupid in the process and have to reinstall for fear of debugging another problem for 2 hours | 00:31 |
| Bodsda | MannyCalavera, its ok, what app are you referring to? | 00:31 |
| MannyCalavera | the mplayer | 00:31 |
| cohete | LiraNuna: i belive it is /var/lib/mysql | 00:31 |
| Blaqlight | m-c, I can't seem to change the permissions. | 00:31 |

| LiraNuna | cohete, thanks, I looked at /etc/mysql/my.cnf | 00:31 |
| m-c | Bodsda: Seems to be less and less issues all the time, but it is comforting to know you can reinstall and not lose your user data. | 00:32 |
| OB1FoShoB | of course debugging for two hrs usually has u walking away with a lesson learned :) | 00:32 |
| Bodsda | MannyCalavera, or theres probably a launcher in Applications--> Sound&Video--> mplayer | 00:32 |
| OB1FoShoB | and then u can say YAY i fixed it | 00:32 |
| MannyCalavera | Bodsda, it does! Yes, and the launcher is there too. | 00:32 |
| m-c | OB1FoShoB: Yes, usually you learn a lesson everytime you fix a linux issue. (Unlike other OS where you missed a checkbox...) | 00:33 |
| Bodsda | m-c, indeed, and with a seperate /home it makes life even easier -- when we have a decent way to back up installed apps and reinstall them via a script then we will be in reinstall heaven | 00:33 |
| OB1FoShoB | heh | 00:33 |

| Fryguy-- | corhere: ask a question, don't ask to ask | 00:33 |
| Bodsda | MannyCalavera, if you want a launcher on the desktop or panel just drag and drop from the menu | 00:33 |
| tim2 | OB1FoShoB: feel any pain | 00:33 |
| tim2 | ? | 00:33 |
| m-c | Bodsda: Just further encouragement to stick withthe default Ubuntu applications... | 00:33 |
| Bodsda | !anybody | 00:33 |
| ubott2 | A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 00:33 |
| Bodsda | corhere, ^^ | 00:34 |
| corhere | Fryguy--: i already asked, and I thought repeating the question is bad ettiquete | 00:34 |
| Fryguy-- | corhere: and asking a different, more vague question that accomplishes nothing is somehow better? | 00:34 |
| MannyCalavera | Bodsda, yes that's all I know for now, drag and drop and pppoeconf hahaha | 00:34 |
| c0nfl|ct | e esses ivas :p | 00:34 |
| corhere | good point. | 00:34 |
| Fryguy-- | corhere: i'm at a loss for the logic of that one | 00:34 |
| eljaco | m-c, how much space should I give the linux (non /home) partition? | 00:34 |
| steveire | Can I ask a quick off-topic question: I'm interested in buying a domain name someone else owns. He's already said he's sell it to me, but as his registration expires in a week, can I just wait until it expires and buy it the usual way? | 00:34 |
| bikodog | can someone help me with a wireless card? | 00:34 |
| Bodsda | m-c, yes, i dont use many of them, but theres not many extras i need either, xchat awn ccsm not much else needed | 00:34 |
| Bodsda | MannyCalavera, if you have anymore questions, dont hesitate to ask ;~) | 00:35 |
| OB1FoShoB | tim2: ? | 00:35 |
| Fryguy-- | eljaco: however much you think you'll need. a /home without any data in it (no personal data, pictures, or anything), will only take up a few megabytes (depending on size of cache since nautilus caches thumbnails) | 00:35 |
| bazhang | #ubuntu-offtopic please steveire | 00:35 |
| m-c | eljaco: all depends on how much space you use - but you can always add onto it later. 1-5 GB is a good start. | 00:35 |
| eljaco | Fryguy, k, I'll see what I can do, thanks | 00:35 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | bikodog - explain your problem out. someone might answer. | 00:36 |
| bikodog | ok | 00:36 |
| accessd | anyone have any idea if there's a specific package that needs to be installed (probably related to ncurses or something of the like) for displaying ansi graphics in an xterm? i have a vga font installed, but i try to 'cat' an ansi file, and it just shows ansi codes. | 00:36 |
| tim2 | OB1FoShoB: debugging for 2 hrs | 00:36 |
| m-c | eljaco: If you have the space, 40-400 GB is good, too | 00:36 |
| tim2 | is it a pain or do you enjoy it | 00:36 |
| OB1FoShoB | tim2: well there were a couple nights i almost thru in the towel, i can't sleep when my nix has issues | 00:37 |
| tim2 | ahahaha | 00:37 |
| Tamale | hello all! I am having some problems with samba. My new hardy heron install can't see or connect to the windows machines on my network.. any ideas what else I need to do? | 00:37 |
| OB1FoShoB | tim2: or just pc having issues period is enough to drive me up the wall | 00:37 |
| Bodsda | OB1FoShoB, totally agree with you there, i couldnt stand waking up to a borked system | 00:37 |
| Blaqlight | I still need to figure out how to change the permissions on this drive from root to me. | 00:37 |
| bikodog | i have a Netgear WG312 card...it was working off-and-on in HH when i did the install. I have a dual-boot...it works fine in XP...but i cannot find it in ubuntu | 00:37 |
| Bodsda | Blaqlight, chmod? fstab maybe | 00:37 |
| tim2 | OB1FoShoB: same here fella | 00:37 |
| spanther | compiler says "configure: error: GTK+-2.10 is required to compile aurora" how to fix that? | 00:38 |
| m-c | accessd: searching | 00:38 |
| Fryguy-- | Tamale: check domain if you are on a domain, or workgroup otherwise | 00:38 |
| DIL | !chown | 00:38 |
| ubott2 | The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE). Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal | 00:38 |
| Fryguy-- | spanther: install the gtk2 dev package | 00:38 |
| m-c | Blaqlight: Using SUDO - change the ownership to your user, your group | 00:38 |
| Tamale | Fryguy--: The workgroup is the same on both computers | 00:38 |
| OB1FoShoB | last time big issue i had was no sound period after trying to get sound in skype using pulseaudio, what a nightmate | 00:38 |
| spanther | Fryguy--, whats the package name for it? :) | 00:38 |
| BlackCow | Gnome is really messed up for me and I am unable to fix it; Is it at all possible to reinstall gnome or at least uninstall it and install xfce instead? (without messing with my other system files) | 00:38 |
| tim2 | OB1FoShoB: what IDE do you use if any | 00:38 |
| Fryguy-- | spanther: no idea, i don't use ubuntu, a simple apt-cache search should find it | 00:38 |
| Blaqlight | Im just wondering how ubuntu thought it necessary to change the permissions without me doing anything | 00:38 |
| OB1FoShoB | tim2: IDE as in harddrive | 00:39 |
| accessd | m-c: i had this font displaying ansi perfectly on gentoo, with no more work than i've done on ubuntu. was just wondering if there was something different i missed. | 00:39 |
| m-c | accessd: tried DOS Box? | 00:39 |
| spanther | Fryguy--, "libgtk2.0-dev" ? | 00:39 |
| kitche | Blaqlight: when you mount something unless you have the umode setup right linux will always mount things as root | 00:39 |
| Fryguy-- | spanther: probably | 00:39 |
| MannyCalavera | Ok, one more. Where can I find and install some kind of a "widget" to run on my desktop and tell me my Internet traffic and how do I disconnect from the Internet without turning off my ZyXEL aDSL modem? I used the "pppoeconf" to set it up. | 00:39 |
| Fryguy-- | MannyCalavera: answer to first question is conky | 00:39 |
| OB1FoShoB | tim2: sure u meant something else... | 00:40 |
| spanther | Fryguy--, thank you for this awesome fast help :) | 00:40 |
| Blaqlight | kitche, it wasn't always that way, I would have access to them without doing sudo anything. now it requires it. | 00:40 |
| Bodsda | MannyCalavera, ethernet or wifi? | 00:41 |
| MannyCalavera | Bodsda, ethernet | 00:41 |
| Bodsda | MannyCalavera, try sudo eth0 down | 00:41 |
| accessd | m-c: that would be a lot less challenging. :) i know it's possible, i'm just stumped as to why it worked fine on gentoo and not ubuntu. is there something with ubuntu and cp437? | 00:41 |
| Fryguy-- | just click on the networking icon top right (assuming you are still using standard gnome interface) and disable networking in the menu that pops up~ | 00:41 |
| OB1FoShoB | tim2: integrated development environment? | 00:41 |
| Twister | hey all, im thinking of getting a Bfg Tech GeForce 8400 GS for use with ubuntu (currently have 8.04) | 00:42 |
| Twister | any thoughts? | 00:42 |
| m-c | accessd: I wish I know - I have a sudden desire to look at my old BBS files | 00:42 |
| Fryguy-- | Twister: it's a graphics card, it displays pictures, not much to it | 00:42 |
| Bodsda | Twister, i have lots of thoughts | 00:42 |
| Bodsda | Twister, you havent really asked a question | 00:43 |
| BlackCow | Twister: well what do you plan to do with your system? | 00:43 |
| Khisanth | try and take over the world! :) | 00:43 |
| m-c | accessd: Well, there is no ANSI emulation in the BASH shell, for one. | 00:43 |
| Bodsda | Khisanth, you cant, im already planning on doing that, sorry, ive got copyright and everything | 00:44 |
| Twister | ok i guess a better question is does anyone use the GeForce 8400 GS chipset, mostly just play a few games (WoW, tabula rasa, eve-online) things like that | 00:44 |
| BlackCow | oh, you will need a 9800 GTX for that | 00:44 |
| MannyCalavera | Bodsda, thank you for that tip. Would it reset my IP address? How do I get it running again? | 00:44 |
| Bodsda | BlackCow, no he wont | 00:44 |
| BlackCow | that was direted at Khi as a joke | 00:44 |
| Fryguy-- | Twister: it will work fine | 00:44 |
| Twister | ok | 00:44 |
| * Khisanth throws Bodsda out a window | 00:44 | |
| Bodsda | MannyCalavera, sudo eth0 up or the network manager in the top right hand corner of your screen | 00:44 |
| BlackCow | I dont think you will be playing any games on Ubuntu that will require to much power, a 7950 GT should do fine | 00:44 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | bikodog - you get help yet? | 00:44 |
| * Bodsda climbs back in and vowes revenge on Khisanth | 00:45 | |
| Bodsda | BlackCow, oh, my bad ;~) | 00:45 |
| abe3k | Hi guys, I have a question regarding svg files | 00:45 |
| Bodsda | BlackCow, a 7300 GT works fine with everything ive tried so far | 00:45 |
| BlackCow | I game on my vista machine on a 7950 GT, its a good card and probably not to expensive these days | 00:45 |
| spanther | Fryguy--, ./configure and make works now but at make install i get an error "/usr/bin/install: cannot remove `/usr/local/lib/gtk-2.0/2.10.0/engines/libaurora.so': Permission denied" "make[1]: *** [install-engineLTLIBRARIES] Error 1" "make[1]: Leave Directory '/home/spanther/aurora-1.4'" "make: *** [install-am] Error 2" | 00:46 |
| Fryguy-- | spanther: need to run make install as root | 00:46 |
| m-c | accessd: http://ansinerator.sourceforge.net/ | 00:46 |
| abe3k | when I use some svg pictures as icons for desktop apps they become blurry when they're streched , any ideas why ? | 00:46 |
| Tamale | hello all! I am having some problems with samba. My new hardy heron install can't see or connect to the windows machines on my network.. any ideas what else I need to do? | 00:46 |
| BlackCow | speaking of gaming on Ubuntu I saw a guy at a LAN party I went to who had a booth set up promoting gaming on ubuntu, he had a few computers up running UT2004 for people to play, but im off topic | 00:46 |
| accessd | m-c: that's not what i'm trying to do | 00:46 |
| MannyCalavera | Thank you Bodsda. How can I access the modem's configuration app in the browser, I used the 192.168.1.1 as the gateway in Windows, it doesn't work here... | 00:47 |
| abe3k | when I use some svg pictures as icons for desktop applications they become blurry when they're stretched , any ideas why ? | 00:47 |
| Jack_Sparrow | HOw do I remove a link that was created like this sudo ln -s /boot/grub/splashimages/2145.xpm.gz /boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz from a terminal without deleting what the link it linked to? | 00:47 |
| Fryguy-- | !repeat | abe3k | 00:47 |
| ubott2 | abe3k: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience | 00:47 |
| m-c | Twister: Go with the AMD video cards - the next version of ubuntu will have open source drivers for R500 chips and earlier | 00:47 |
| Bodsda | MannyCalavera, use ifconfig to find your gateway, if your connected just use the address in your browser as per usual | 00:47 |
| Fryguy-- | Jack_Sparrow: just delete the link.. | 00:47 |
| accessd | m-c: i run a bbs, and know people that still draw ansi art in their free time. instead of using a viewer, i'd like to just use cat in xterm. this worked flawlessly on gentoo, which is why i'm so confused as to why it doesn't work on ubuntu. | 00:48 |
| m-c | Twister: If you must go with nvidia, then go cheap with a 6600GT or 8800GT | 00:48 |
| kantlivelong | any udev gurus here? | 00:48 |
| Bodsda | Jack_Sparrow, the -s just tells it not to make a backup | 00:48 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Fryguy-- so rm /boot/grub/splashimages/2145.xpm.gz is all I need? | 00:48 |
| Fryguy-- | kantlivelong: ask a question, don't ask to ask | 00:48 |
| mau_dias | hey ppl, i appreciate if somebody can help me.. i want to install ubuntu as my main os but i can't connect anything.. firefox, pidgin, nothing.. i've tried a lot of things but i can only view google inc. sites.. somebody has any hint? | 00:48 |
| m-c | accessd: Sorry I cannot help you more. Maybe you could ask in Gentoo what makes it work there. | 00:48 |
| gkahla | anyone know what package to install to get the C headers and library for "getopt.h"? I'm not finding it in synaptic... | 00:48 |
| BlackCow | is their anyone that knows if it is possible to reinstall gnome without reinstalling Ubuntu, things are really messed up in gnome for me | 00:48 |
| Fryguy-- | Jack_Sparrow: no, other way around | 00:48 |
| m-c | mau_dias: What do you mean 'can't connet anything' ? | 00:49 |
| Fryguy-- | Jack_Sparrow: delete the link, not the original file | 00:49 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Fryguy-- yea got it | 00:49 |
| accessd | m-c: ok, thanks for the effort. :P | 00:49 |
| mau_dias | m-c man, i have no access.. no internet | 00:49 |
| mau_dias | i'm using windows now | 00:49 |
| spanther | Fryguy--, okay that's done. do you know how to start this gtk engine ? | 00:49 |
| mau_dias | dunno what's happening | 00:49 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Fryguy-- so sudo rm /boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz is all I need? | 00:49 |
| m-c | mau_dias: what kind of connection ? | 00:49 |
| Fryguy-- | spanther: use a theme that uses it | 00:49 |
| mau_dias | cable routed | 00:49 |
| Fryguy-- | Jack_Sparrow: yes | 00:49 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Fryguy-- thanks.. brain fart fternoon | 00:50 |
| m-c | mau_dias: What does System -> Admin -> Network Settings say ? | 00:50 |
| Fryguy-- | mau_dias: do you have an eth0 interface? does it have an IP associated with it? does /etc/resolv.conf have dns entries? was dhclient running? | 00:50 |
| mau_dias | well | 00:50 |
| mau_dias | i'll write it down, get these info and brb | 00:50 |
| mau_dias | hehehe | 00:50 |
| Fryguy-- | BlackCow: just delete everything gnome related in your home directory | 00:50 |
| mehdi_ | hello all | 00:51 |
| bloodrock | Tamale, sometimes you need to reboot after setting samba up also make sure you got the shares set on windows might also reboot windows | 00:51 |
| OB1FoShoB | have a question, although i suspect there is no easy answer after scouring google, but i'm looking for something similar to nlite, but for ubuntu, i'm an it guy and would like to customize some nice ready to go copies to replace windoze desktops... any pointers? | 00:51 |
| mehdi_ | there is an archiver more quickly than tar ? | 00:51 |
| Bodsda | OB1FoShoB, clonezilla ? | 00:51 |
| Tamale | bloodrock: The shares showed up in Gutsy, and I've already rebooted my heron install since installing / configuring samba | 00:51 |
| m-c | Fryguy-- he said he is not used to linux yet.. | 00:51 |
| Fryguy-- | OB1FoShoB: check out linux from scratch project, and there's plenty of tutorials about for making customized cds/dvds of ubuntu | 00:51 |
| abe3k | when I use some svg pictures as icons for desktop apps they become blurry when they're streched , any ideas why ? | 00:52 |
| Fryguy-- | m-c: ? | 00:52 |

| ubott2 | mehdi_: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 00:52 |
| Tamale | bloodrock: What's a WINS server and do i need that? | 00:52 |
| Fryguy-- | mehdi_: no | 00:52 |
| bloodrock | Tamale, did ya reboot windows | 00:52 |
| m-c | fryguy-- you're telling him to check eth0 and he's not comfortable with linux | 00:52 |
| Fryguy-- | Tamale: no | 00:52 |
| OB1FoShoB | thank u bodsha and fryguy will check both out | 00:52 |
| Tamale | bloodrock: Many times | 00:52 |
| bloodrock | tama should not need a wins server | 00:52 |
| Fryguy-- | m-c: so? there's plenty of basic tutorials about how to use ifconfig on the internet, and there's a wonderful man page for it | 00:52 |
| BlackCow | Fryguy--: I tried doing that, but I still get the error when I start up and it still takes forever to boot up in gnome. I am wondering if I am missing a file... | 00:52 |
| Bodsda | abe3k, its a confirmed bug -- https://bugs.launchpad.net/eog/+bug/92127 | 00:53 |
| ubott2 | Launchpad bug 92127 in eog "SVG images look blurry when zoomed in" [Unknown,Confirmed] | 00:53 |
| Tamale | aren't they just supposed to show up in "network - windows network" ? | 00:53 |
| Fryguy-- | BlackCow: you probably are. Easy check would be to create a new user and log in as that user and see if problems persist | 00:53 |
| l815 | how can i make my fonts look like mint linux? | 00:53 |
| m-c | fryguy-- Or you could direct him to the graphical interface... | 00:53 |
| BlackCow | Fryguy--: ok thanks, ill try that out! | 00:53 |
| Fryguy-- | m-c: I don't know the graphical interface, and checking the list of things I highlighted is faster to do on the command line | 00:53 |
| abe3k | Bodasda : my friend has a hardy and he uses the same icon but its not blurred | 00:53 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | l815 - find out what font it is, and install it | 00:53 |
| abe3k | Bodsda : my friend has a hardy and he uses the same icon but its not blurred | 00:54 |
| Bodsda | abe3k, no idea, i just googled it, i suggest you do the same | 00:54 |
| l815 | i've already installed the mtcore fonts | 00:54 |
| Twister | i have an ati card right now, and having issues with it. goign to try the drivers direct from ati though and see if those make a difference | 00:54 |
| nikin | abe3k: wht icon do you use? | 00:54 |
| bloodrock | Tamale, did you install system-config-samba | 00:54 |

| MannyCalavera | Bodsda, I used "ifconfig". It listed eth0, local loopback and Point-to-Point protocol. There were several IP addresses, tried them all in Firefox and it didn't open anything. Can I somehow change the gateway to the ethernet modem? | 00:56 |
| abe3k | I'm using ubuntu hardy | 00:56 |

| abe3k | nikin : but in the gnome viewer its blurred | 01:02 |
| tj83 | if you havent installed it its not there demism | 01:02 |
| speps | Fryguy--: ...brute force? | 01:02 |
| nikin | abe3k: then the problem is in nautilus somewhere.. whoch i dont have... :( sorry.. but you can also try to save it from gimp to PNG in any esolution you prefer | 01:02 |
| demism | tj83: Nope no composite enable | 01:02 |
| abe3k | nikin : thats what I'm going to do if theres no solution :/ | 01:02 |
| abe3k | nikin : but why this svg lol ? | 01:02 |
| abe3k | nikin : other ones streach perfectly | 01:03 |
| nikin | abe3k: no idea... what about other SVG s in gnomre? | 01:03 |
| demism | i remember adding that back in the day | 01:03 |
| bloodrock | Tamale, also prob wanna check your settings on the windows machine as to how you got the shareing set | 01:03 |
| nikin | do you have maybe antialiassing turned on? | 01:03 |
| abe3k | nikin : the original svgs + some other ones I have are good | 01:03 |
| demism | tj83: What is it exactly I need to add? | 01:03 |
| Tamale | bloodrock: The share i want to access is wide open | 01:03 |
| nikin | does this bluring depend on the SVG"s document resolution? | 01:03 |
| tj83 | demism, actually i was going to suggest removing it lol | 01:03 |
| LiraNuna | is it a good idea to have a different partition/hdd for /var/ ? | 01:04 |
| nikin | abe3k: what if gnome plies antialissing on the document specified resoltion of the SVG wih is here 32x32 | 01:04 |
| nikin | .. let me make you an other SVG | 01:04 |
| arooni-mobile | i recently ran dd to copy partitions from one (dying drive) to another). i then phsycially removed the old drive and put the new one in it... but when i booted it up;... it just said "GRUB"... what am i doing now? | 01:04 |
| bloodrock | Tamale, k then it should show up are you seeing anything at all like a workgroup icon | 01:04 |
| nikin | abe3k: just a min | 01:04 |
| abe3k | nikin : this might be true | 01:04 |
| Tamale | yes, the workgroup icon is there | 01:04 |
| demism | hahah... I think I had to do a disable option | 01:04 |
| abe3k | nikin : but how can I fix the resolution then ? | 01:04 |
| Tamale | but there is nothing in it | 01:04 |
| kitche | arooni-mobile: you probably did not copy the whole drive | 01:05 |
| bloodrock | Tamale, did ya click on it | 01:05 |
| tj83 | demism, if you pastebin your xorg.conf i'll look but right off i have no other suggestions. what does glxgears tell you? | 01:05 |
| Tamale | yes, it opens up and there is nothing inside it | 01:05 |
| nikin | abe3k: with any program that can manipulate SVG-s.. like inkscape | 01:05 |
| bloodrock | Tamale, did ya reboot the windows machine | 01:05 |
| abe3k | nikin : hmmm ok I'll try to DL it | 01:05 |
| demism | well glxgears was running nice | 01:05 |
| demism | but now it's awful | 01:06 |
| tj83 | demism, what about FPS? | 01:06 |
| demism | 43 now | 01:06 |
| demism | or less | 01:06 |
| MachinTrucChose | can someone tell me how I can verify whether a file was properly copied/transferred from a CD? | 01:06 |
| Tamale | bloodrock: Not since installing the samba-config or whatever, but many i've rebooted it many times in general | 01:06 |
| tj83 | ouch. demism | 01:06 |
| nikin | abe3k: apt-get install inkscape :P | 01:06 |
| nikin | inkscape | 01:06 |
| demism | as soon as I enabled the advanced graphics it happend but glxinfo says I Have hardware rendering | 01:06 |
| abe3k | nikin : yup downloading :) | 01:07 |

| bloodrock | tama well prob reboot all of em see if that does anything since installing samba-config | 01:07 |
| arooni-mobile | kitche, i thought i did; i copied every partitoin except sawp | 01:07 |
| demism | oh wait now it says I don't have direct rendering | 01:07 |
| tj83 | demism, lets see that xorg.conf | 01:07 |

| dstrbdfrk1 | can someone help me with copying dvds ??? | 01:08 |

| DroP-PsyChoSiS | hi all, could anyone tell me what i need to install inorder to compile on ubuntu, i get this error: configure: error: not found, please install the zlib libraries | 01:09 |
| BlackCow | Fryboy--: if you are still their I tried creating a new user and I still have the same problem with gnome, it takes 5 min to log in and I get an error once it does | 01:09 |
| Tamale | bloodrock: Might've found a solution. Someone else mentioned /etc/nsswitch.conf needing "wins" in the hosts line. Sure enough, it was missing. Why was this removed in hardy? | 01:09 |
| dstrbdfrk1 | no i have brasero dick burning | 01:09 |
| tj83 | demism, lemme look for a few | 01:09 |
| bazhang | build-essential DroP-PsyChoSiS | 01:10 |
| nikin | abe3k: you can change it by file> document properties in the menu | 01:10 |
| nikin | then you have to scale the image | 01:10 |
| DroP-PsyChoSiS | bazhang, i already installed it | 01:10 |
| MachinTrucChose | can someone tell me how I can verify whether a file was properly copied/transferred from a CD? | 01:10 |
| mneptok | dstrbdfrk1: language, please | 01:10 |
| nikin | but first unlocka the layerss | 01:10 |
| abe3k | nikin : ok I'll open my image now | 01:10 |
| danc3 | MachinTrucChose: use md5sum | 01:10 |
| kitche | arooni-mobile: you copy the whole drive over /dev/sdX not just the partitions really | 01:11 |
| bloodrock | Tamale, got me prob outta date and not being updated???? | 01:11 |
| tj83 | demism, have you tried aticonfig --initial? | 01:11 |
| bazhang | dstrbdfrk1, k9copy is what you need | 01:11 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | dstrbdfrk1 search 'dvd copy' with synaptic and check out the descriptions | 01:11 |
| demism | no | 01:11 |
| DroP-PsyChoSiS | bazhang, any idea? | 01:11 |
| tj83 | try that "sudo aticonfig --initialize | 01:11 |
| demism | don't have aticonfig | 01:11 |
| tj83 | make sure that accelerated graphics are still enabled. | 01:11 |
| DroP-PsyChoSiS | hi all, could anyone tell me what i need to install inorder to compile on ubuntu, i get this error: configure: error: not found, please install the zlib libraries | 01:11 |
| demism | it says they are not | 01:11 |
| DroP-PsyChoSiS | sorry for repeat | 01:11 |
| abe3k | nikin : hmmm this only changes the canvas size | 01:12 |
| DroP-PsyChoSiS | i pressed enter :/ | 01:12 |
| demism | tj83: direct rendering now says no | 01:12 |
| arooni-mobile | kitche, but sda1 (root) and sda2 (/home) ... were copied, sda3 is just swap | 01:12 |
| danc3 | DroP-PsyChoSiS: isn't the error message telling you to install zlib libraries...? Well, install the freakin zlib libraries! | 01:12 |
| abe3k | nikin : I'll see if theres a scale function | 01:12 |
| arooni-mobile | which live cd actually works? i've tried to use the ubuntu live cds, but they always seem not to work (because i suppose i have a nvidia graphics card) | 01:12 |
| mftom | hey what's up guys??? can someone please recommend an FTP client to use on ubuntu? | 01:12 |
| tj83 | demism, re-enable them... reboot and join #Digital-it for me plz | 01:12 |
| DroP-PsyChoSiS | danc3, they are installed! | 01:12 |
| danc3 | DroP-PsyChoSiS: I'd remove and reinstall them | 01:12 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | mftom search 'ftp' in synaptic | 01:12 |
| danc3 | mfmf: gftp | 01:12 |
| kitche | arooni-mobile: yes but your grub issue is most likely due to not coping over the mbr which is in /dev/sda | 01:12 |
| mftom | deadkennedy: i did but i'm not sure which one to get lol | 01:12 |
| DroP-PsyChoSiS | danc3, can you tell me which one to remove and install? | 01:13 |
| danc3 | mftom: gftp | 01:13 |
| Morph3us | how can i uninstall an application that wasn't installed via synaptic.. ? | 01:13 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | heh | 01:13 |
| mftom | danc3: gftp huh? ok let me check it out | 01:13 |
| nikin | abe3k: i modified it.. let me upload it i drop you a link | 01:13 |
| arooni-mobile | kitche, how should i fix? | 01:13 |
| danc3 | DroP-PsyChoSiS: no, but search with the package manager for "zlib"... | 01:13 |
| DroP-PsyChoSiS | danc3, theres lots :P | 01:13 |
| abe3k | nikin : cool :D | 01:13 |
| abe3k | nikin : then tell me how you did it ;P | 01:13 |
| danc3 | DroP-PsyChoSiS: I don't know, you might have to actually try to figure it out... it's "LIBRARIES" after all... just look. | 01:14 |
| nikin | abe3k: http://ktmhome.sytes.net/pub/WOW256scalable.svg | 01:14 |
| nikin | abe3k: lets first test it if this one is better | 01:15 |
| kitche | arooni-mobile: dd the whole drive really | 01:15 |
| mftom | danc3: when i search for gftp in synaptic it lists a few "gftp" files. which one do i get? | 01:15 |
| danc3 | mftom: I don't know | 01:15 |
| danc3 | figure it out | 01:15 |
| mftom | gftp-common, gftp-gtk, etc. | 01:15 |
| arooni-mobile | kitche, is there a way to simply reinstall grub or something? | 01:15 |
| abe3k | nikin : Perfect ! hahaha | 01:15 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | mftom - take a chance, you can always uninstall | 01:15 |
| kitche | arooni-mobile: yep | 01:16 |
| legend2440 | DroP-PsyChoSiS: is there an install or readme file that mentions dependencies? is zlib1g-dev installed? | 01:16 |
| kitche | !grub > arooni-mobile | 01:16 |
| mftom | deadkennedy: i wonder how people are supposed to tell which one to download in synaptic | 01:16 |
| zhaozhou | !grub > zhaozhou | 01:16 |
| mftom | i dont see the logic | 01:16 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | mftom - i had 7 or 8 IM programs till i realized pidgin was my fave, so i uninstalled the rest | 01:16 |
| yoyoned | mftom: just gftp, | 01:16 |
| DroP-PsyChoSiS | legend2440, i just installed that and it worked, ty :) | 01:16 |
| danc3 | mftom: by reading the description? | 01:16 |
| m-c | danc3: Please stop | 01:16 |
| mftom | most descriptions are the same... | 01:17 |
| tumutorrent | yay ive done the ubuntu 8.04 | 01:17 |
| yoyoned | mftom: it will install the dependencies | 01:17 |
| mftom | yoyoned: gotcha, thanks | 01:17 |
| danc3 | huh? | 01:17 |
| yoyoned | mftom: np | 01:17 |

| danc3 | arooni-mobile: either | 01:22 |
| arooni-mobile | what about speed danc3 ? | 01:22 |
| danc3 | arooni-mobile: nvidia doesn't have anything to do with it | 01:22 |
| arooni-mobile | what program is the best to burn an iso image | 01:22 |
| danc3 | cdrecord | 01:22 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | !polls | arooni-mobile | 01:23 |
| ubott2 | arooni-mobile: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. | 01:23 |
| Penopticon | arooni-mobile: K3b | 01:23 |
| danc3 | heh | 01:23 |
| rogue780_ | legend2440, thanks | 01:23 |
| danc3 | Penopticon: is K3b installed on a Ubuntu system? | 01:23 |
| bazhang | danc3, no, you need to install it. | 01:25 |
| arooni-mobile | ugh k3b doesnt let me burn an cdrom iso to a dvdr disc | 01:25 |
| danc3 | bazhang: exactly.... that's why that answer isn't the best for what was asked... | 01:25 |
| danc3 | arooni-mobile: of course it does | 01:25 |
| danc3 | arooni-mobile: oh, nevermind | 01:25 |
| arooni-mobile | danc3, it says 'please insert an empty cd-r medium' | 01:26 |
| danc3 | arooni-mobile: right. That's because it's a CD ISO, not a DVD ISO | 01:26 |
| arooni-mobile | danc3, but i have a dvd disc in there... the image is not a dvd iso... so it seems im stuck with this software :( | 01:27 |
| danc3 | arooni-mobile: huh? | 01:27 |
| Penopticon | danc3: You can install it from the package manager. It is a KDE program but works well on Gnome. | 01:27 |
| danc3 | arooni-mobile: you CANNOT burn a CD image to a DVD disc. | 01:27 |
| arooni-mobile | danc3, i dont think it will let me burn a cd iso image to a dvd disc | 01:27 |
| danc3 | arooni-mobile: jeeeeeeeeeeez, that's what I'm trying to tell you | 01:27 |
| Penopticon | arooni-mobile: Yes it does. | 01:27 |
| danc3 | Penopticon: no, it won't | 01:28 |
| arooni-mobile | <arooni-mobile> ugh k3b doesnt let me burn an cdrom iso to a dvdr disc | 01:28 |
| arooni-mobile | <danc3> bazhang: exactly.... that's why that answer isn't the best for what was asked... | 01:28 |
| arooni-mobile | <danc3> arooni-mobile: of course it does | 01:28 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | i thought you could burn a cd iso to dvd | 01:28 |
| xocite | you can burn a cdrom iso to a dvd | 01:28 |
| danc3 | nope | 01:28 |
| anteaya | hmmm, not sure if I am being helped or have been abandoned, going to post in #ubuntu-motu, just didn't want to offend anybody in this channel | 01:28 |
| danc3 | arooni-mobile: read the next line past that | 01:28 |
| xocite | no, i believe you can | 01:28 |
| xocite | just burn the cd iso to the dvd | 01:29 |
| Penopticon | danc3: You're right, I didn't read the question right. No software will do that. | 01:29 |
| danc3 | exactly | 01:29 |
| danc3 | xocite: can't do it | 01:29 |
| arooni-mobile | ok so if i dont have a cdr disk i'm screwed? | 01:29 |
| danc3 | arooni-mobile: yes | 01:29 |
| arooni-mobile | booh | 01:29 |
| xocite | dd if=~/cd.iso of=/dev/dvd | 01:29 |
| arooni-mobile | xocite, does that owrk? | 01:30 |
| xocite | maybe i'm being stupid then. | 01:30 |
| Penopticon | arooni-mobile: Don't use a re-writeable disc. | 01:30 |
| xocite | i was thinking that padding the drive would sort out the issue | 01:30 |
| bloodrock | arooni-mobile, you could download wubi and install ubuntu that way it downloads ubuntu and installs it | 01:30 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | medium doesnt matter, iso will fill what it need and kill the rest of the medium | 01:30 |
| bazhang | arooni-mobile, cd's are cheap; why not just buy some. | 01:31 |
| xocite | DeadKennedy2880: exactly, so you can burn a cd iso to a dvd iso | 01:31 |
| m-c | xocite: I believe they have different headers - cd uses redbook - dvd uses some odd thing. I could be wrong, though | 01:31 |
| legend2440 | anteaya: they may know in channel #ruby-lang or #ruby | 01:31 |
| arooni-mobile | bazhang, cuz i dont have any now | 01:31 |
| xocite | hmm | 01:31 |
| danc3 | no, you cannot burn a CD iso to a DVD blank | 01:31 |
| xocite | let me research the issue | 01:31 |
| anteaya | legend2440, thank you | 01:31 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | xocite - did it with windows and nero i believe it was | 01:31 |
| kitche | danc3: people do that all the time actually burn cd iso to a dvd blank | 01:32 |
| bazhang | sure you can. done it many many times. | 01:32 |
| Penopticon | arooni-mobile: You could always install a Virtual Server. | 01:32 |
| gway9000 | try it and let the rest of us know for sure | 01:32 |

| kitche | danc3: hmm just worked fine here | 01:32 |
| asmodai[B] | danc3: yes it does work.... I did it to burn my windows disk in ubuntu... | 01:32 |
| linkmaster03 | i need to know asap | 01:32 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | medium shouldnt matter | 01:32 |
| danc3 | linkmaster03: why don't you just Google it? | 01:33 |
| linkmaster03 | i tried | 01:33 |
| linkmaster03 | i cant find it | 01:33 |
| danc3 | oh come on | 01:33 |
| danc3 | try again | 01:33 |
| linkmaster03 | i tried a lot | 01:33 |
| linkmaster03 | im in a tough situation | 01:33 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | lol are we getting offtopic? | 01:33 |

| arooni-mobile | is there a way of turning a cd iso into a dvd iso? | 01:35 |

| DeadKennedy2880 | medium dont matter, an *iso is an *iso | 01:44 |

| danc3 | DeadKennedy2880: it matters to K3b, whether it uses cdrecord or growisofs to burn it. That's why it matters. | 01:45 |
| _2 | kitche how so ? | 01:45 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | program flaw | 01:45 |
| danc3 | whatever | 01:45 |

| Blaqlight | it automatically mounts it as root r/o | 01:50 |
| yoyoned | _2 it looks like you have permision to see /usr/local, but not /usr | 01:50 |
| Blaqlight | because Im in the fuse group. | 01:50 |

| unop | Blaqlight, that's a CD filesystem - which means its a read-only filesystem - are you sure it is cdfs? | 02:12 |
| Ironfoot | I installed Ubuntu to find my sound not working at all, and I'm pretty clueless right now on how to fix it. | 02:12 |
| moosepants | earthmeLon: You probably need to specify your external IP address somewhere | 02:12 |
| earthmeLon | I changed something to 0.0.0.0 | 02:13 |
| earthmeLon | and it says that means it is listening to all interfaces moosepants | 02:13 |

| Guest57618 | i am getting the following error... VMWare tools service is not running | 02:16 |
| unop | Blaqlight, you need to change the mount-point options to have files owned by a specific user -- see the man mountpage / under "mount options for iso9660" , specifically the uid and gid option | 02:16 |
| gway9000 | !umount | 02:16 |

| unop | anteaya, sudo umount /path/to/mountpoint | 02:17 |
| anteaya | unop thank you | 02:17 |
| danc3 | Ironfoot: run "alsamixer" and make sure volume isn't muted | 02:17 |
| unop | anteaya, or. pumount /path/to/mountpoint # if you prefer not to use sudo | 02:17 |
| moosepants | earthmeLon: Perhaps, if that doesn't work, you can leave DefaultAddress as your internal address, but set MasqueradeAddress to your external address? It's been a couple of years since I played Proftd | 02:17 |

| unop | anteaya, you should be able to unmount volumes within nautilus - just right click the volume and select unmount / eject | 02:19 |
| danc3 | Ironfoot: what sound isn't working? CD audio, web audio, what? | 02:19 |
| === vith is now known as vithos | ||
| Ironfoot | danc3, any audio whatsoever. MP3 audio, sound alerts... | 02:19 |
| unop | Blaqlight, well it depends on how you mount the volume -- if you use the mount command, this will last so long the volume is mounted, if you place these options in /etc/fstab, they ought to be permanent | 02:19 |
| danc3 | Ironfoot: are you sure the module is loaded? use "lsmod" to see | 02:19 |
| anteaya | unop ah thank you, i actually did try nautilus prior to posting and didn't see the unmount option | 02:19 |
| fUD | Anyone? | 02:20 |
| Blaqlight | ok /etc/fstab was the one thing I wanted to know about. thanks. | 02:20 |

| ripper | i have about every module for a usb webcam you can have loaded...this cam still doesnt work | 02:21 |
| danc3 | Ironfoot: although... Ubuntu should have detected the sound system and loaded that module automatically... not sure why it didn't do that. | 02:22 |
| === tuxer is now known as tuxed | ||
| Blaqlight | unop, this is what fstab says about that mount point : /dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto < whats missing/wrong | 02:22 |
| deeceefar2 | deadkennedy2880: I'll look at that, anything special that needs to be done in xorg? | 02:22 |
| unop | Blaqlight, the uid and gid options | 02:22 |

| DeadKennedy2880 | deeceefar2 i think so, an older version i believe | 02:23 |
| unop | Blaqlight, i ought to say tho, you shouldnt really be needing to do this -- as long as you have the capability to read the files on the volume, you are fine (which is what is intended on a iso9660 volume) | 02:23 |

| Leefmc | Grr, MPlayer can't play x264? How lame is that. | 02:44 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | arooni-mobile - and re-burn your image | 02:44 |
| arooni-mobile | the live cd doesnt boot even though i burned it at 1x; it gets stuck in this busybox ash shell.. with a prompt of (initramfs)... why? | 02:44 |
| gway9000 | arooni-mobile: sometimes a prickle will kill an elephant burn the dvd dang | 02:44 |
| Seven_Six_Two | arooni-mobile, what video card? what bios? which oem? | 02:45 |
| nikin | Leefmc: codecs codecs codecs | 02:45 |
| Bodsda | arooni-mobile, did you md5 the iso? | 02:45 |
| arooni-mobile | Bodsda, yes | 02:45 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | Seven_Six_Two - its a long story | 02:45 |
| sun01tec1 | arooni-mobile: have you tested your cd drive out? | 02:45 |
| Dorothoes | hey can anyone help me? I have a new HP laptop 64 bit: but ubuntu doesnt recognize it | 02:45 |
| J-a-k-e | unop: I have allready followed the instructions under the quickstart guide several times installing grub to both drives with little temporary effect, I spoke to someone a few months ago who reckoned it might have something to do with /boot/grub/menu.list although I dont know where to start looking for problems in the configuration | 02:45 |
| Bodsda | arooni-mobile, do you have an ubuntu install? | 02:45 |
| arooni-mobile | Seven_Six_Two, nvidia geforce 7300; i made it myself | 02:45 |
| arooni-mobile | Bodsda, yes the one i'm talking to you on | 02:45 |
| shawnr34 | is there any kind of front end to control a lampp server? like the one provided with xampp ? | 02:45 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | bodsda - he didnt md5, noone explained how | 02:45 |
| Leefmc | nikin: I have them installed, atleast i believe so. From what i am reading its a matter of "what mplayer supports when it was compiled". Note that i actually encoded my own x264, so i should have the x264 codec shouldn't i? | 02:46 |
| arooni-mobile | if its this hard to get ubuntu running for the average person; they would have given up by now | 02:46 |
| JackOhara | does anyone know if the radeon hd series are compatable with ubuntu im new to linux | 02:46 |
| Bodsda | arooni-mobile, so you have ubuntu, and you want another one? | 02:46 |

| Bodsda | DeadKennedy2880, oh dear, its gonna be one of these ones ;~) | 02:46 |
| gway9000 | arooni-mobile: it is not hard if you hsve the right media | 02:46 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | bodsda - all he needs is a blank cd | 02:46 |
| Seven_Six_Two | arooni-mobile, what bios? are you dual booting? | 02:46 |
| Bodsda | DeadKennedy2880, amen | 02:46 |
| sun01tec1 | anybody know of a problem with static ip and dns using network manager? | 02:46 |
| nikin | Leefmc: some programs use one lib for a certain codec.. some use other | 02:46 |
| arooni-mobile | DeadKennedy2880, i did md5 ... scroll back and you'll find that silly | 02:46 |
| Dorothoes | my video card | 02:47 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | arooni-mobile - you md5 the burn tho | 02:47 |
| gway9000 | arooni-mobile: name calling? | 02:47 |
| nikin | Leefmc: other programs play your file? | 02:47 |
| Dorothoes | thanks rainwalker | 02:47 |
| rainwalker | Dorothoes: for...? | 02:47 |
| arooni-mobile | i'm frustated when folks are saying i didnt do my homework; when i did; just to make me look bad! | 02:47 |
| Dorothoes | it only allows 800 pixels display | 02:47 |
| Unislash | i'm trying to install the drivers for the nvidia geforce 8800gt graphics card (software from their site). When i follow the directions and run their download, it says that it appears that i have an xserver running and to "close x". how do i do this? | 02:47 |
| rainwalker | Dorothoes: what video card? | 02:47 |
| arooni-mobile | its not conducive to helping anyone | 02:47 |
| Bodsda | arooni-mobile, lets start fresh -- you have an Ubuntu livecd? | 02:47 |
| Dorothoes | nvidia 256 | 02:48 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | md5 the burn, not the image | 02:48 |
| Leefmc | nikin: Movie Player does, though there are some issues. But the fact that MPlayer doesn't even support the x264 is annoying. | 02:48 |
| gway9000 | arooni-mobile: you were given great advice from several people - you failed to follow any frustration you feel is ................ | 02:48 |
| arooni-mobile | Bodsda, yes; burned it at 1x; the bios is award cmos bios; no oem; i built it myself | 02:48 |
| Dorothoes | i think its a nvidia mcp67m | 02:48 |
| Bodsda | arooni-mobile, and its set to boot from cd? | 02:48 |
| arooni-mobile | Bodsda, oh yes | 02:49 |
| Bodsda | arooni-mobile, and you put in the cd what happens? | 02:49 |
| hwilde | arooni-mobile, did you get all the updates or what | 02:49 |
| rainwalker | Dorothoes: in a terminal, run "lspci" and look for your video card | 02:49 |
| Bodsda | hwilde, updates for a livecd?? | 02:49 |
| Dorothoes | k one sec | 02:49 |
| Leefmc | nikin: I've been finding out that video support is horrible on ubuntu haha. It has been such a pain to get a web compliant progressive downloading h264 compiles. | 02:49 |
| arooni-mobile | Bodsda, it starts up; and i select 'start ubuntu without modifying your system' | 02:49 |
| Leefmc | -s+d | 02:49 |
| hwilde | Bodsda, there was a release candidate cd image out htere | 02:49 |
| Seven_Six_Two | DeadKennedy2880, while I agree with the md5 wholeheartedly, it could also be physical. I've seen a cheaper computer do the same thing with a pressed cd of 7.01 | 02:49 |
| danc3 | arooni-mobile: you still here? I thought you were advised to go download the proper format (cd/dvd) ISO and then burn it properly, and then install. Why are you still here wasting your time? | 02:49 |

| pepe__ | i need help | 02:51 |
| danc3 | arooni-mobile: yeah, but whatever... do it properly, and get it done. You're wasting your time (and ours) | 02:51 |
| Seven_Six_Two | DeadKennedy2880, hahaha. ok. Well it must be ubuntu that's to blame for that, no? It should be easier. | 02:51 |

| Fryguy-- | AndrewGearhart: address the machine by IP, not by hostname | 03:03 |
| nalioth | tekryan: if you give the info a read ( that the bot sent you ) you'll find a lot of things are similar to DOS | 03:03 |
| AndrewGearhart | Fryguy--: ah /me tries | 03:03 |
| Seven_Six_Two | Killarny, did you use the -R? I noticed that before, and that's for "recursive" operations | 03:03 |

| moosepants | Storrgie: How'd you make your RAID5 volume? | 03:04 |
| Killarny | Seven_Six_Two: yes, I did .. I used "chmod -R -o <dirname>" | 03:04 |

| Fryguy-- | arooni-mobile: sure | 03:05 |

| Killarny | Seven_Six_Two: no, I'm setting up shares for samba, and all of my shares currently have full access (rwxrwxrwx) but I want to remove access for "others" and only allow owner rwx, and group r-x (so, rwxr-x---, right?) but none of the commands I'm using appear to be having any affect | 03:07 |
| hwilde | Bodsda, Look at the table and you will lsee channel 1 is frequency 2412 MHz = 2.412 GHz | 03:07 |
| Bodsda | IndyGunFreak, yeah but you need that and other things to collect encrypted packets decrypt them decrypt the key then use it, | 03:07 |

| Killarny | Fryguy--: yes, they are all either symlinks or mountpoints | 03:08 |
| hwilde | Ohzie, install and upgrade for hours. | 03:08 |
| Storrgie | moosepants: I dont want to install the OS on the raided volume, i just want to store all my media there | 03:08 |
| moosepants | Storrgie: I'm not sure if Ubuntu allows it, but you might be able to configure software raid during install | 03:08 |

| Bodsda | IndyGunFreak, haha, i use it for learning network security, create a network hack it, fix it, enhance it, hack it etc etc | 03:08 |
| moosepants | Storrgie: Oh in that case you can just create the soft array | 03:08 |
| hwilde | tekryan, bash the tab key a bit | 03:08 |
| moosepants | Storrgie: Then when something goes wrong, the data is there, just re assemble the array | 03:09 |

| unop | Ohzie, i believe it is safe to upgrade from dapper to hardy directly | 03:09 |
| Fryguy-- | although if you are using samba to manage these permissions, the filelevel permissions aren't going to do much, since windows machines don't really have the concept of owner/group/other | 03:09 |
| Fryguy-- | and so samba manages those permissions, and you really want to be editing smb.conf | 03:10 |

| Ohzie | hwilde: Thank you! | 03:11 |
| unop | Bodsda, making assumptions about someone else is his fault? | 03:11 |

| Bodsda | unop, no, having an insane client is the person with the insane client's fault | 03:11 |
| Whitey88 | Bodsda, hey i tried fixmbr on my laptop and it had a winge abt invalid partition tables or something and i did it neway, but grub is still there and i still cant get into windows. ne ideas? | 03:12 |
| Bodsda | Whitey88, yeah, it would be handy to no the exact whine'ing and you could reinstall grub from live cd | 03:12 |
| unop | Bodsda, you call the command line clients like irssi and bitchx insane? | 03:12 |
| Bodsda | unop, yes (to me) never liked them | 03:13 |
| Whitey88 | Bodsda, grub is still there, but i just had a thought as to y | 03:13 |

| Fryguy-- | Ohzie: i leave mine attached to a screen session on my freebsd machine that I just reconnect to. Handy to keep all logs on one machine and always be online | 03:14 |
| Ohzie | Fryguy--: That's handy too! I used eggdrop for that though. | 03:14 |

| Genotrius | Alright, I'm just a medium-range user... I'm trying to use this Sessions dialog in Preferences to get padevchooser to come up every time I start a session, but it wont save that preference when I close it.

| Bodsda | Ohzie, hehe,.,. oh, sometimes remembering things hurts ;~) | 03:17 |
| Ohzie | Bodsda: :[ | 03:17 |
| Fryguy-- | Genotrius: you can change your session in gdm to use a .xinirc file instead, which is basically just a script file of things that you do when you first start an X session (things like what you want, and the last step is starting a window manager or desktop environment) | 03:17 |

| Seven_Six_Two | unop, if you'd like. I'm just interested in your opinion, that's all. | 03:18 |

| Fryguy-- | Genotrius: don't pm me | 03:18 |
| Fryguy-- | Genotrius: just keep it in the channel | 03:18 |
| Genotrius | Fryguy--: Ahh, alright. how do I set that up? | 03:19 |
| Fryguy-- | Genotrius: create a .xinitrc file, run what you want in it (background all processes except the last one with &), and then when your are in gdm just click options and specify a new session | 03:19 |
| thorny_sun | ubuntu gurus! using hardy, pidgin + message notification plugin set to use "URGENT" hint-- how do i make this actually work? nothing is happening.. | 03:19 |

| tech0007 | adude: did u download the xubuntu-desktop or xubuntu iso? | 03:21 |
| Fryguy-- | thorny_sun: the behavior is defined by your window manager and how it handles window hints | 03:21 |

| Fryguy-- | your window manager is probably compiz-fusion | 03:22 |
| tech0007 | adude: logout of gnome, then on the login screen, choose a session | 03:22 |
| abhishek | How to get there? This is my first IRC run (kinda ) ? I just installed gnome-xchat , started it and I am here between problems:p | 03:22 |

| Fryguy-- | D3RGPS31: be mroe specific (if you are referring to Xauthority just delete it and make another | 03:25 |
| Seven_Six_Two | arooni-mobile, yes it's fine. just don't choose data cd | 03:25 |
| ace_suares | D3RGPS31: but are you logged in as root ?? | 03:25 |
| unop | D3RGPS31, nothing, root really isn't supposed to use X | 03:25 |
| Jeff_2 | How do I stop this thing from defaulting to my Mythtv login? Mythtv is broken and i'm in an infinit loop until I can figure out how to boot to my other login. | 03:25 |
| D3RGPS31 | ace_suares no | 03:25 |
| Whitey88 | Bodsda, k do u want me to go into linux thru the live disc or just to the menu | 03:25 |
| spanther | is xmms2 the new xmms ? and does it work together with streamtuner ? (streamtuner searchs for internet radio and sends start informations to xmms) | 03:25 |
| D3RGPS31 | oo, then i have another problem xD | 03:25 |
| ace_suares | D3RGPS31: so how are you getting to the point that the error 'missing Xauth' is coming up ? | 03:25 |
| Bodsda | Whitey88, i need you to boot the livecd | 03:25 |
| Fryguy-- | spanther: xmms2 isn't similar to xmms at all | 03:25 |
| Seven_Six_Two | spanther, xmms is a dead project now. or nearly dead | 03:26 |
| D3RGPS31 | ace_suares: i just got back onto linux after using windows for a week and abunch of errors came up =/ | 03:26 |
| spanther | damn :( | 03:26 |
| IndyGunFreak | spanther: just audacious.. even xmms skins works with it | 03:26 |
| Gault | hello, i installed ubuntu hardy on a new 500gb disk.. with guided partition so i have a 490gb, 3gb ext, 3gb swap... is there a way to split the main 490gb partition now? its mounted so wont let me resize from gparted | 03:26 |
| Whitey88 | Bodsda, k its there, had 2 find the disc again, lol | 03:26 |
| Bodsda | Whitey88, booted? | 03:26 |
| Fryguy-- | and why are you running X as root? | 03:26 |
| Seven_Six_Two | spanther, it's not bad. There are plenty of good mini players to use. like beep | 03:26 |
| yoyoned | spanther: try audacious | 03:26 |
| ace_suares | D3RGPS31: 'back to linux' you mean you got a login screen !? | 03:26 |
| spanther | IndyGunFreak, does audacious have a internet radio browser ? | 03:27 |
| unop | spanther, i know gxmms (the xmms2 gnome frontend) handles internet radio - not sure about the streamtuner part | 03:27 |
| D3RGPS31 | axe_suares what!? | 03:27 |
| IndyGunFreak | lol | 03:27 |
| Seven_Six_Two | spanther, if you want something full featured, try amarok | 03:27 |
| spanther | okay :) | 03:27 |
| unop | ace_suares, the question you should be asking him is why he is intending to run X as root | 03:27 |
| ace_suares | D3RGPS31: what do you mean by 'get back to linux after a week' ? | 03:27 |
| Whitey88 | Bodsda, its thinkin abt it, lol almost there | 03:27 |
| connor | hi | 03:27 |
| ace_suares | unop: thnaks for that suggestion! | 03:27 |
| IndyGunFreak | spanther: i'm not sure if audacious has internet radio, i believe rhythmbox does | 03:27 |
| D3RGPS31 | ace_suares: i was using windows for the past week, i got too comfortable with it | 03:28 |
| spanther | unop, well streamtuner is a viewer for internet radio from many providers like shoutcast and so on you click play there after marking a stream and it starts xmms to play it ^^" | 03:28 |
| ace_suares | D3RGPS31: yeah i understand but what did you do, reboot and choose linux from the menu ? | 03:28 |
| l3d | is there a easyer way to share folders with my wifes pc other the nfs thats alot on terminal stuff involved | 03:28 |
| Seven_Six_Two | rhythmbox does. and it's been greatly improved since I first tried it. | 03:28 |
| Gaming4J1 | hey all :) | 03:28 |
| D3RGPS31 | ace_suares yes | 03:28 |
| unop | spanther, i would be inclined to say xmms2 can handle streamtuner but i can't be sure - worth a try | 03:28 |
| Seven_Six_Two | l3d, are they both linux? | 03:28 |
| Gaming4J1 | ouch the attack of the FloodBot's tonight? xD | 03:28 |
| * Fryguy-- just uses foobar2000 on windows :/ | 03:28 | |
| l3d | yes | 03:29 |
| ace_suares | D3RGPS31: so waht haoppend then, you got the progress bar and then a screen that asks fort you username ? | 03:29 |
| taes81 | anyone play counter-strike source? | 03:29 |
| Fryguy-- | taes81: i do | 03:29 |
| spanther | okay so is amarok gtk and gnome compatible ? and does it list shoutcast radio streams? | 03:29 |
| l3d | ubuntu 8.04 | 03:29 |
| taes81 | Fryguy-- on ubuntu? | 03:29 |
| sun01tech | anyone know about static ip and DNS problem when using network setting...after reboot unable to get browser on the internet | 03:29 |
| Fryguy-- | taes81: i have | 03:29 |
| Fryguy-- | taes81: i run vista x64 now | 03:29 |
| Seven_Six_Two | l3d, if it's just a temporary fix, you could install kde and use the fish:// in konqueror | 03:29 |
| BoneE | what do i use to see shared folders | 03:29 |
| taes81 | nice | 03:29 |
| Whitey88 | Bodsda, its there | 03:29 |
| unop | spanther, amarok is a KDE app - it handles shoutcast streams | 03:29 |
| ace_suares | sun01tech: what is in /etc/resolv.conf ? | 03:29 |
| spanther | unop, but i have gnome :( | 03:29 |
| Seven_Six_Two | spanther, but it will work fine | 03:30 |
| Unislash | My gparted won't recognize my different partitions that i have on my drive. can someone help me out? :) | 03:30 |
| taes81 | Fryguy-- is cs:s no better on linux? | 03:30 |
| Bodsda | Whitey88, open a terminal and type 'sudo grub' | 03:30 |
| D3RGPS31 | ace_suares progress bar, told me i had some errors in some random inode blocks, restarted, progress bar again, went through all tests, reboot again, then login | 03:30 |
| spanther | ok | 03:30 |
| Fryguy-- | taes81: about the same i guess | 03:30 |
| unop | spanther, that doesn't stop you from using KDE applications tho :) you can install amarok | 03:30 |
| ace_suares | D3RGPS31: login as what ? root or your regular user ? | 03:30 |
| Gaming4J1 | Hmm Would Anyone know about nessus? I am trying to audit my own computers security, and when I installed and registered nessus it gave me this: Now fetching the newest plugin set from plugins.nessus.org...all-2.0.sig is not the valid signature for all-2.0.tar.gz...E: Archive signature does not match..Aborting?? :( | 03:30 |
| Whitey88 | Bodsda, done | 03:30 |
| D3RGPS31 | ace_suares regular, i don't login as root ever | 03:30 |
| spanther | unop, no thx i'll stay at gnome :) | 03:30 |
| taes81 | Fryguy-- what kind of vid card do you have? | 03:30 |
| Bodsda | whiteda, type -- find /boot/grub/stage1 | 03:30 |
| Seven_Six_Two | Gaming4J1, did you sign up on the site? | 03:30 |
| Fryguy-- | taes81: random nvidia geforce 6800 | 03:30 |
| ace_suares | D3RGPS31: okay and you got the gnome or kde desktop ? where did you get the error ? | 03:31 |
| AndrewGearhart | Fryguy--: I'm so confused... the share is correct... do I need to install anything else... or should a default 8.04 ubuntu just be able to do this? | 03:31 |
| spanther | brb xchat problems | 03:31 |
| Gaming4J1 | Seven_Six_Two: Yes. Registered with my email. | 03:31 |
| unop | spanther, so stay on gnome :) and have amarok too | 03:31 |
| Fryguy-- | AndrewGearhart: need to install samba stuff | 03:31 |
| taes81 | Fryguy-- mines only a 7600 | 03:31 |
| D3RGPS31 | ace_suares when i tried to goto my Login Window manager, it was suppose to login automatically but i had to do it manually | 03:31 |
| Fryguy-- | AndrewGearhart: what happens if you navigate to \\192.168.1.100 or whatever in nautilius | 03:31 |
| taes81 | Fryguy-- they come out with a new one like wait one sec they just release another one lol | 03:31 |
| Whitey88 | Bodsda, it says hd(0.5) | 03:31 |
| Fryguy-- | taes81: yah i guess | 03:32 |
| Unislash | would anyone like to help me with gparted not recognizing my partitions? :) feel free... | 03:32 |
| ace_suares | D3RGPS31: your login window managher, is that System-> preferences -> Login window ? | 03:32 |
| sun01tech | ace_suares: it is: search earthlink.net nameserver 207.69.188.185 nameserver 207.69.188.186 nameserver 207.69.188.187....it works when i change the static ip address but after reboot i have to change it again | 03:32 |
| D3RGPS31 | ace_suares yes | 03:32 |
| taes81 | Fryguy-- bad humor they come out with new ones like every other month | 03:32 |
| Gault | hello, i installed ubuntu hardy on a new 500gb disk.. with guided partition so i have a 490gb, 3gb ext, 3gb swap... is there a way to split the main 490gb partition now? its mounted so wont let me resize from gparted | 03:32 |
| Bodsda | Whitey88, ok now run -- root (hd0,5) | 03:32 |
| Gaming4J1 | Seven_Six_Two: I can run the program and login too, but it says plugins are out of date. :-/ | 03:32 |
| Unislash | Gault: get a gparted live cd | 03:33 |
| Fryguy-- | Gault: download gparted live cd and do it from there | 03:33 |
| Whitey88 | , not. | 03:33 |
| Seven_Six_Two | Gaming4J1, that's all I've got. except maybe the forums on the site, since it's a commercial offering as well. | 03:33 |
| ace_suares | sun01tech: if you have a static ip addres, the resolv.conf shouldnt change. You have dhcp by any chance ? | 03:33 |
| AndrewGearhart | Fryguy--: couldn't find //192.168.1.100 | 03:33 |
| Fryguy-- | or run gparted from ubuntu livecd | 03:33 |
| Maciel | hey, I'm having problems with a REALLY old computer, an old version of Ubuntu and partitions: can anyone help? | 03:33 |
| taes81 | Fryguy-- does the 64bit vista run the best | 03:33 |
| Fryguy-- | AndrewGearhart: you sure that machine exists | 03:33 |
| Fryguy-- | taes81: i dunno | 03:33 |
| taes81 | Fryguy-- how much does that run | 03:33 |
| D3RGPS31 | ace_suares when i first tried it afew times, it was saying something about root, xauthority, and error; now it's saying i need to be running GDM wich i think i am | 03:33 |
| Fryguy-- | taes81: i guess | 03:33 |
| Whitey88 | Bodsda, done, it didnt say nething | 03:33 |
| ace_suares | D3RGPS31: and what should login automatically.. normally you need to type your password to access the login window manager | 03:33 |
| Fryguy-- | taes81: no idea | 03:33 |
| Fryguy-- | taes81: i didn't pay for it | 03:33 |
| taes81 | hah nice | 03:34 |
| Bodsda | Whitey88, cool now type -- setup (hd0) | 03:34 |
| brokebroke | how can i get the size of a directory's total contents? | 03:34 |
| futuresoon | is there any reason apache2 would use sites-enabled/000-default instead of sites-enabled/001-example.com ? | 03:34 |
| Fryguy-- | brokebroke: du | 03:34 |
| futuresoon | when i go to http://example.com | 03:34 |
| ace_suares | brokebroke: du -s | 03:34 |
| rainwalker | brokebroke: command or GUI? | 03:34 |
| D3RGPS31 | ace_suares my regular account should login automatically | 03:34 |
| brokebroke | du doesn't seem accurate. | 03:34 |
| brokebroke | wc -c seems accurate but i don't know how to apply it to all sub-contents. | 03:34 |
| Fryguy-- | brokebroke: it is | 03:34 |
| Gault | Unislash: & Fryguy: thanx would the ubuntu live CD work? | 03:34 |
| taes81 | bt? | 03:34 |
| ace_suares | brokebroke: try 'man du' for more options | 03:34 |
| Gaming4J1 | When I type: sudo nessus-update-plugins it produces the same error: all-2.0.sig is not the valid signature for all-2.0.tar.gz | 03:34 |
| Fryguy-- | Gault: like i said, yes | 03:34 |
| brokebroke | thx | 03:34 |
| sun01tech | ace_suares: no, i meant the static ip address for the computer... no i disabled dhcp on my router because i need static ip for each machine connected | 03:34 |
| AndrewGearhart | Fryguy--: I'm sitting next to it... and I can ping it | 03:34 |
| Gaming4J1 | :-/ | 03:34 |
| ace_suares | D3RGPS31: not to the login window manager... ! | 03:34 |
| Unislash | Gault: it should... but mine doesn't for some reason... :( | 03:34 |
| taes81 | Fryguy-- bit-t? | 03:34 |
| Maciel | sorry to be annoying but... | 03:34 |
| Maciel | I'm having problems with a REALLY old computer, an old version of Ubuntu and partitions: can anyone help? | 03:35 |
| D3RGPS31 | ace_suares i'm lost D= | 03:35 |
| ace_suares | sun01tech: but is you pc configuured for dhcp or static ? | 03:35 |
| Unislash | Gault: of course, it's just because it can't load for some reason (which i'd like to know, btw :P) | 03:35 |
| Fryguy-- | AndrewGearhart: then make sure that samba stuff is installed and that there's actually a share set up | 03:35 |
| Fryguy-- | taes81: ? | 03:35 |
| unop | Gaming4J1, that suggests that all-2.0.tar.gz is somehow corrupted -- try downloading it again | 03:35 |
| tech0007 | !ask | Maciel | 03:35 |
| ubott2 | Maciel: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 03:35 |
| Whitey88 | Bodsda, done syas its all there and good | 03:35 |
| fongkwan | l` | 03:35 |
| Gaming4J1 | Macial, what is the problem with your partitions? Can you view them (qtparted, etc?) | 03:35 |
| Bodsda | Whitey88, reboot, grub should now work | 03:35 |
| sun01tech | ace_suares: yes i changed it to static in the network settings | 03:36 |
| Maciel | well, I was stupid enough to not create partitions when I was installing, and I'm having problems creating one now | 03:36 |
| tekryan | where would i find documentation for pork | 03:36 |
| ace_suares | D3RGPS31: Its not very clear what you want. If you boot, you get a login screen. You type user and pass and you get logged in. Then you got to system-pref-login window and you have to type your password agian, it stat true ? | 03:36 |
| tekryan | when i installed it | 03:36 |
| tekryan | jw | 03:36 |
| yoyoned | Gault: get the gparted lived cd | 03:36 |
| fongkwan | I want to go straight to grub (w/o booting into desktop), IIRC, there should be a way to do it with the livdCD, by pressing a key | 03:36 |
| fongkwan | does anyone know | 03:36 |
| taes81 | Fryguy-- you know any tweaks to run cs:s better on a older machine? | 03:36 |
| brokebroke | here's an example of my du pain : http://pastie.org/225275 | 03:37 |
| fongkwan | and when to press it | 03:37 |
| Gaming4J1 | Maciel, you must have set the default settings, so you have one big partition?... | 03:37 |
| D3RGPS31 | ace_suares yes, but i can't get to the login window manager from system>administrator>login window | 03:37 |
| Fryguy-- | taes81: no, and this is the wrong channel for that anyway | 03:37 |
| Maciel | yeah | 03:37 |
| ace_suares | sun01tech: in network manager, did you check what is in DNS ? | 03:37 |
| taes81 | sorry | 03:37 |
| ace_suares | D3RGPS31: why not ? | 03:37 |
| Maciel | although, there may be a problem considering the drive is only about 8GB in size... | 03:37 |
| Whitey88 | Bodsda, linux works but windows still gets a disk error | 03:37 |
| Whitey88 | Bodsda, i think i broke it | 03:37 |
| zachb | I'm having trouble w/ the nvidia drivers | 03:38 |
| D3RGPS31 | ace_suares at first i was having an error that i can't repeat now, i'm having a new error telling me i'm not running GDM display manager | 03:38 |
| Gaming4J1 | Maciel: It should be fine, but what did you have in mind, partitioning the drive even smaller, like 4GB for Windows or... ? | 03:38 |
| Bodsda | Whitey88, question for ##windows im afraid, unless anyone in here can shed some light | 03:38 |
| zachb | I can't get it to work w/ nvidia, only with nv. I've tried building them, using envy, nvidia-xconfig, they all break the display | 03:38 |
| Maciel | that's about right | 03:38 |
| ace_suares | D3RGPS31: GDM is Gnome. It looks like you ar erunning gnome, but to be sure, got o system -> about gnome | 03:39 |
| brokebroke | du - b | 03:39 |
| Whitey88 | Bodsda, thanks for ur help, will jump ship and try the other channel | 03:39 |
| Maciel | although any kind of use on the drive would be good | 03:39 |
| thorny_sun | ubuntu gurus!? how do i get compiz to act on window hints? | 03:39 |
| Bodsda | Whitey88, ok, sorry couldnt fix windows | 03:39 |
| * ace_suares needs to search for a missing harddisk. be back in some time. | 03:39 | |
| thorny_sun | googling is not working | 03:39 |
| brokebroke | why is disk usage not the same as bytes? | 03:39 |
| brokebroke | du - b = wc -c | 03:39 |
| D3RGPS31 | ace_suares yes i am running gnome, with compiz removed and metacity as my manager | 03:39 |
| Gaming4J1 | Maciel: Currently if you have Ubuntu installed on the drive you should be fine, you can use that. If you want to partition such a small drive it's a tight squeeze on the hdd... | 03:39 |
| Bodsda | hey guys -- i need to downgrade my kerenl, how would i go about this (no one !downgrade me, im well aware of the issues) | 03:39 |
| Whitey88 | Bodsda, thats alright, i at least can still get at my files in the windows partitons | 03:40 |
| sun01tech | ace_suares: yes...the correct dns servers are in there... like i said it works when i change the static ip address, but when i reboot the same static ip address doesnt work so i change it again and it works fine... for instance i have 192.168.1.220 ok works then reboot doesnt work so i change it to 192.168.1.221 and it works same thing everytime i reboot | 03:40 |
| Fryguy-- | thorny_sun: first google hit says to use the fade plugin | 03:40 |
| Bodsda | Whitey88, ;~) | 03:40 |
| Maciel | I mean, use it for space for Windows... long story | 03:40 |
| Whitey88 | cya | 03:40 |
| thorny_sun | Fryguy--: what did you google? | 03:40 |
| Bodsda | cya Whitey88 | 03:40 |
| Fryguy-- | compiz fusion window hint urgent | 03:40 |
| thorny_sun | i did 'compiz "window hints"' :9 | 03:41 |
| thorny_sun | thanks!! | 03:41 |
| Maciel | the thing is, I'm using Ubuntu 5.06, so I don't have the GNOME partition programme that the later versions have and the help web pages recommend I use | 03:41 |
| Bodsda | Maciel, so, install it | 03:41 |
| zachb | Maciel: you can't install it? | 03:41 |
| zachb | gparted | 03:41 |
| ozzloy | i have a directory full of files with sequential but non-contiguous names, i want them contiguous. howdoidothat? | 03:42 |
| Gaming4J1 | Maciel: Perhaps this will help: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/partitioning | 03:42 |
| andcorps | hi all | 03:42 |
| yoyoned | Maciel: you can use parted from terminalm, but not on a mounted partition | 03:42 |
| ryanakca | What directories in $HOME should I remove to reset gnome to its default? | 03:42 |
| ozzloy | for example, 1.jpg 2.jpg 5.jpg -> 1.jpg 2.jpg 3.jpg | 03:42 |
| Gaming4J1 | Maciel: notice the tools available, you can get them from the Synaptic I'm sure. | 03:42 |

| AndrewGearhart | Fryguy--: you're referring to the share on windows being setup... right? I've setup the share with RW access for everyone... which should allow anonymous access... and I still get that message. | 03:43 |
| andcorps | my Open Office kept crashing | 03:43 |
| Fryguy-- | ryanakca: .gnome, .gnome2, things in .config, there's probably a few others | 03:43 |
| yoyoned | ryanakca: .gnome* .gconf* but this will reset other apps as well | 03:43 |
| Fryguy-- | AndrewGearhart: and are you going to the share, or are you going to the root directory | 03:43 |
| Fryguy-- | is the share on vista | 03:43 |
| linuxpwns | would resizing my swap partition harm ubuntu in any way? i figured out when i was on the LiveCD for OpenSUSE that i made it wayyyy to big. | 03:44 |
| Fryguy-- | is the firewall set up correctly | 03:44 |
| Fryguy-- | do you have samba installed | 03:44 |
| spanther | nice as far as i can say Amarok runs fine i have no sound lags in ubuntu hardy heron 32bit (because i've heard about PulseAudio problems) | 03:44 |
| yoyoned | linuxpwns: no | 03:44 |
| AndrewGearhart | yes, the share is on vista ... and is named 'a' | 03:44 |
| kyle__ | how do search a series of subdirectories and move their contents to a new location? is it "find . -name * -exec _____________ ??? | 03:44 |
| Fryguy-- | linuxpwns: no | 03:44 |
| ryanakca | yoyoned: well, if its a gnome app, I don't really care :) | 03:44 |

| Fryguy-- | linuxpwns: should be about the size of the amount of ram you have, if you have a lot of ram it can be significantly less if you don't care about hibernating | 03:46 |
| yoyoned | ohzie: in /etc/apt/sources.list change all the gutsy to hardy then apt-get update:apt-get dist-upgrade | 03:46 |
| beekur | Hiya ya'll bunters. I've got an issue with my 8.04 that I just upgraded to from the beta. I changed the background to solid black, rather than the elephant skin one, and now I have little wave-lookin things all over my menubar at the bottom of the screen. Any ideas what that is and how to get rid of it ? | 03:46 |
| LGKeiz | Fryguy, you just answered my question | 03:46 |
| LGKeiz | why thank you. | 03:46 |
| Brian | i'm trying to install 8.0.4 server on a new Gigabyte MB with the AMD 780G chipset (SB700 southbridge). The system reboots as soon as it's done scanning the cdrom. I've tried disabling everything I can think of with no change. Any suggestions how to get past this or debug it further? | 03:46 |
| Fryguy-- | Brian: noacpi ? | 03:46 |
| name_name | hey is there as way run sudo without having to prompt for the password like 'sudo --password(PASSWORD)' so it would prompt for it all the time? | 03:46 |
| * m_newton is away: loligaging at the wee hours of nite; just to say hi to all and host my server. | 03:46 | |
| thorny_sun | Fryguy--: "couldn't find package compiz-config-settings-manager" | 03:47 |
| LGKeiz | Fryguy; but thats the wrong name =P | 03:47 |
| Fryguy-- | name_name: you can edit sudoers to make you be able to sudo without providing a password, check out the manpage for details | 03:47 |
| Brian | Fryguy--, just add that to the end of the boot options? | 03:47 |
| LGKeiz | compiz-settingsmanager | 03:47 |
| LGKeiz | err | 03:47 |
| Fryguy-- | thorny_sun: search for it, it's probably some stupid name | 03:47 |
| LGKeiz | compiz-settings-manager | 03:47 |
| Fryguy-- | thorny_sun: i don't run ubuntu so I don't have details like that | 03:47 |
| Fryguy-- | LGKeiz: ? | 03:47 |
| Maciel | OK, firstly: I think I'm way over my head installing Linux in the firdst place *heh*, and second, there are ways to partition, I'm just not sure how (mostly using programmes I don't have) | 03:47 |
| LGKeiz | trying to remember. | 03:47 |
| ace_suares | D3RGPS31: what you describe is quite strange. can you got to other stuff, like network manager ? | 03:47 |
| name_name | Fryguy--: I looked at man sudo it didn't help much | 03:47 |
| * Maciel apoligizes for being such a n00b | 03:47 | |
| Fryguy-- | name_name: check out man sudoers | 03:47 |
| Fryguy-- | or just hit google for editing sudoers | 03:47 |
| tech0007 | Maciel: whats installed on ur hard drive now | 03:48 |
| Rico | i need a hand getting a Broadcom B43 wireless card working | 03:48 |
| ohzie | yoyoned: Thank you so much. =) | 03:48 |
| Maciel | just Ubuntu v5.06 with a 8MB-or-so partition | 03:48 |
| yoyoned | ohzie: np | 03:48 |
| tech0007 | Maciel: and u want to dual boot w/ xp? | 03:49 |
| D3RGPS31 | ace_suares yes | 03:49 |
| Maciel | no, 98 | 03:49 |
| Maciel | yes, my compy's that old | 03:49 |
| zachb | Sorry, I went to try to fix it, did anything say anything to me? | 03:49 |
| aib | with a default Ubuntu install the regular user just has to type in their password to execute any command on the system, from what I have just experienced. how is that secure? | 03:49 |
| yoyoned | Maciel: have you tried the gparted livecd | 03:49 |
| ace_suares | D3RGPS31: so the only thing you can't do is go to the Login Window manager ? | 03:49 |
| Maciel | don't have any live CD apart from the Ubuntu Live one | 03:49 |
| zachb | aib: its secure from the outside | 03:49 |
| Fryguy-- | aib: it's not. ubuntu wasn't designed to be a hardened and secure OS, it was designed to be friendly to endusers | 03:50 |
| mouseboyx | how do you resize frames in ion2? | 03:50 |
| Fryguy-- | mouseboyx: wrong channel | 03:50 |
| aib | fair enough | 03:50 |
| ace_suares | D3RGPS31: try open a terminal and do a 'ls -la' | 03:50 |
| Fryguy-- | and ion is old, use a newer tiling window manager | 03:50 |
| thorny_sun | Fryguy--: compizconfig-settings-manager-- and i already have it installed | 03:50 |
| Fryguy-- | thorny_sun: so then open it up and make the changes that you need | 03:50 |
| D3RGPS31 | ace_suares you want me to past the output on pastebin? | 03:50 |
| thorny_sun | Fryguy--: it's version .7.4 and it does not offer those specific options for the Fade plugin | 03:50 |
| ace_suares | D3RGPS31: no, just look who is the owner of the Xauth* files | 03:50 |
| thorny_sun | not sure if my version is old or that web page is old, but it's not there | 03:51 |
| Fryguy-- | thorny_sun: out of luck then, go grab the source from compiz for the fade plugin and compile it yourself then | 03:51 |
| === elisboa is now known as elisboa-off | ||
| name_name | Fryguy--: would sudo -v do it? | 03:51 |
| aib | have other distributions adopted this practice? | 03:51 |
| Utalcn2me | aib, also it is to the first user of the system, others that you may add to the system will not be able to sudo unless you set them up | 03:51 |
| Fryguy-- | name_name: no idea, i don't use sudo | 03:51 |
| name_name | what do you use? | 03:51 |
| thorny_sun | Fryguy--: that sounds a little scary-- i don't need to make this ubuntu an more unstable than it already is-- i guess i'll just deal | 03:51 |
| mouseboyx | What is a new tiling window manager? | 03:51 |
| D3RGPS31 | ace_suares i only have -rw----- on .Xauthority | 03:51 |
| thorny_sun | thanks for the help! | 03:51 |
| Fryguy-- | name_name: not ubuntu | 03:51 |
| Seven_Six_Two | aib, most, if not all linux systems can sudo | 03:51 |
| name_name | -__- | 03:51 |
| ace_suares | D3RGPS31: yeah who is the owner | 03:52 |
| theunixgeek_ | name_name: what are you trying to do? | 03:52 |
| Fryguy-- | mouseboyx: xmonad, awesomewm, wmii, dwm, to name a few | 03:52 |
| mouseboyx | thanks | 03:52 |
| aib | Seven_Six_Two, thats not what i'm asking though - of course you can set up a sudoers file on all of them | 03:52 |
| linuxpwns | in gparted i do not see an option to resize my swap partition | 03:52 |
| name_name | I want to have my python code run stuff root | 03:52 |
| Brian | Fryguy--, noacpi has no effect | 03:52 |
| === theunixgeek_ is now known as theunixgeek | ||
| name_name | but it stopped at the sudo cmd each time | 03:52 |
| D3RGPS31 | ace_suares me | 03:52 |
| Fryguy-- | Brian: try upgrading bios or removing unnecessary hardware | 03:52 |
| yoyoned | linuxpwns: do you see the swap | 03:52 |
| ace_suares | D3RGPS31: so that is not the problem. I have no more clues... I am sorry ! | 03:52 |
| name_name | I wish I could do something like sudo -password=PASSWORD, savvy? | 03:52 |
| theunixgeek | thorny_sun: openSUSE's stabler imo but Ubuntu's still more noobie friendly | 03:52 |
| Fryguy-- | name_name: like i said before, just edit sudoers file | 03:53 |
| D3RGPS31 | ace_suares thanks for trying =D | 03:53 |
| Seven_Six_Two | aib, oh I see. I don't know of any others, but ubuntu assumes that the user that installs it will be the maintainer | 03:53 |
| Maciel | OK, here's a simpler question: where can I get GNOME Partition programme and how do I install it? | 03:53 |
| theunixgeek | name_name: type sudo command and it'll ask you for your password | 03:53 |
| yoyoned | linuxpwns: select it then resive | 03:53 |
| yoyoned | Maciel: gparted | 03:53 |
| eugene_ | ? | 03:53 |
| Fryguy-- | Maciel: gparted, you can download it from first google result for it, comes on a livecd that you just boot from and do what you need | 03:53 |
| name_name | Fryguy--: where's that file? | 03:53 |
| ace_suares | D3RGPS31: you could always go to a terminal with Alt-ctrl-f1 and remove ubuntu-desktop and reinstall it :) | 03:53 |
| Fryguy-- | name_name: /etc | 03:53 |
| name_name | thanks | 03:53 |
| D3RGPS31 | ace_suares i'll do that =D | 03:53 |
| eugene_ | Best virus scanner for ubuntu? | 03:53 |
| Fryguy-- | eugene_: none, it's not necessary to run one | 03:54 |
| Fryguy-- | if you insist on using one for whatever reason, try like clamAV i guess | 03:54 |
| Gaming4J1 | Maciel: Synaptic Manager also has some partion managers. A lot smaller the 600MB if you have DSL... | 03:54 |
| ace_suares | eugene_: I agree with Fryguy-- but I would answer: clamav. | 03:54 |
| Seven_Six_Two | aib, and it's more secure because you shouldn't use root unless you absolutely have to, which is what forcing sudo does, to a certain extent | 03:54 |
| Commie_Cary | eugene_: why even run one | 03:54 |
| eugene_ | ahh Just installed it... | 03:54 |
| ace_suares | Fryguy--: ( I run that to clean incoming email for my domain) | 03:54 |
| mneptok | eugene_: it's not necessary unless you're running Windows | 03:55 |
| Maciel | hold up, I'm getting gparted... | 03:55 |
| Seven_Six_Two | eugene_, clamav. and lots of linux systems use it. just because there are very few linux viruses doesn't mean that windows users don't access linux services. | 03:55 |
| stillwell | is a firewall necessary | 03:55 |
| Owner | u guys say owner alot, btw | 03:55 |
| Fryguy-- | stillwell: necessary? no | 03:55 |
| eugene_ | thank you | 03:55 |
| aib | i'm fine with it as long as everyone admits its a convenience. i can't come up with a situation where its more secure, but it seems to be a convenient thing to do. | 03:55 |
| mneptok | Owner: "a lot" :P | 03:56 |
| ace_suares | Owner: hehe maybe you should change owner :-) | 03:56 |
| Owner | :O | 03:56 |
| Commie_Cary | I wonder... | 03:56 |
| linuxpwns | yoyoned: i right-clicked it but i still do not see the resize option, or in the toolbar either | 03:56 |
| Owner | I will consider. | 03:56 |
| Seven_Six_Two | stillwell, but having a firewall is a good idea. necessary if you don't have a hardware firewall and run public services | 03:56 |
| * ace_suares leaves da house... | 03:56 | |
| Commie_Cary | if you COULD hack linux | 03:56 |
| Fryguy-- | Commie_Cary: you can.. | 03:57 |
| mneptok | Seven_Six_Two: i don;t understand how running public services necessitates a firewall | 03:57 |
| stillwell | oh...ok | 03:57 |
| stillwell | thnks | 03:57 |
| Commie_Cary | Fryguy--: how would you try it, icant think of a sercity hole\ | 03:57 |
| Brian | Fryguy--, tried that too, there's nothing in the system besides the mb etc. I tried noapic noacpi too | 03:57 |
| Seven_Six_Two | mneptok, it's a good security practise. | 03:57 |
| * IndyGunFreak always always always runs a hardware firewall w/ SPI.. i hate software firewalls | 03:57 | |
| yoyoned | linuxpwns: turn of the swap in terminal type sudo swapoff -a, then reload gparted. | 03:57 |
| Fryguy-- | Commie_Cary: bring a linux machine to shmoocon or defcon and say you have an unhackable linux machine | 03:57 |
| eugene_ | ufw? | 03:57 |
| Fryguy-- | and watch what happens | 03:57 |
| tfnsn | i installed ubuntu via wubi but after sometime when i am opening a webpage in firefox , the music player begins to scratch why? | 03:58 |
| Rico | can anyone help me with a Broadcom wireless card issue? | 03:58 |
| Commie_Cary | Fryguy--: lol :P | 03:58 |
| eugene_ | Are most people here full time linux users? | 03:58 |
| Commie_Cary | yep | 03:58 |
| Fryguy-- | eugene_: i don't use linux at all pretty much | 03:58 |
| Seven_Six_Two | nothing is unhackable. unless it's totally broken | 03:58 |
| mneptok | Seven_Six_Two: i don't see how running public services changes anything, though | 03:58 |
| IndyGunFreak | eugene_: a lot of us are.. | 03:58 |
| tech0007 | eugene_: im not | 03:58 |

| Seven_Six_Two | mneptok, there's more risk when you run a webserver, ftp server etc. | 03:59 |
| Maciel | OK: I have absolutely no idea how to install this thing | 03:59 |

| Fryguy-- | name_name: probably | 03:59 |
| Commie_Cary | is there a way to resuce-repair on a wireless | 03:59 |
| Seven_Six_Two | mneptok, because a firewall will block traffic that is unwanted. | 03:59 |
| Maciel | I have never installed anything GNU in my life, so the language the install file uses is like greek to me... | 03:59 |
| Fryguy-- | Brian: you can download the alternative install cd | 03:59 |
| subverso | problem with my real console, i cant see it. Just a black screen and a blinking cursor | 04:00 |
| Fryguy-- | Brian: or the server install cd (which is the same ubuntu, just a different default package set, trivial to switch over to a "real" ubuntu install afterwards | 04:00 |
| name_name | yup, no it's complaining about sytanx | 04:00 |
| mneptok | Seven_Six_Two: a firewall restricts access to ports. running a public service by definition means you want ports open. so a firewall is useful to a public facing server only for the ports it closes. | 04:00 |
| Commie_Cary | GNU was never finnished :( | 04:00 |
| name_name | which is to be expected | 04:00 |
| tech0007 | Maciel: did u download using apt or is it a gparted livecd? | 04:00 |
| Gaming4J1 | Maciel: gparted livecd? | 04:00 |
| eugene_ | i'm going to major in CIS, so it seems like im going to have to learn php/apache and a different os | 04:00 |
| Fryguy-- | name_name: use visudo to edit it, and read the manpage | 04:00 |
| Brian | Fryguy--, i'm using the server cd...i thought i grabbed the alternate but it appears the same. better double check that | 04:00 |
| yoyoned | Brian: remove quiet splash from /boot/grub/menu.lst | 04:00 |
| mneptok | Seven_Six_Two: unless you get into IP or netblock restrictions, which has to be automated to scale well | 04:00 |
| Seven_Six_Two | mneptok, yes. exactly. would you recommend running a webserver without a firewall? | 04:00 |
| Rico | eugene_, that is my major as well | 04:00 |
| Fryguy-- | eugene_: probably | 04:01 |
| mneptok | Seven_Six_Two: i do. | 04:01 |
| Flannel | Brian: alternate and server are the same installation method, different packages are on the CD, and they have slightly different install options, but the installer is the same | 04:01 |
| Fryguy-- | eugene_: what FL | 04:01 |
| mneptok | Seven_Six_Two: what would a firewall give me? the abilit to ... block access to a server i set up so people can access it | 04:01 |
| piju | what is the function of microcode.ctl ? | 04:01 |
| Brian | i grabbed the regular cd again... doht. getting the alternate... | 04:01 |
| eugene_ | friends list | 04:01 |
| Maciel | no, i got it from the web just now, it's just that I'm not sure what "cd to the directory and type "./configure"" means | 04:01 |
| Fryguy-- | eugene_: there is no friends list on irc, so what are you talking about | 04:01 |
| Seven_Six_Two | mneptok, block access to ports that you don't want people trying to exploit | 04:01 |

| Fryguy-- | linuxpwns: any reason why you don't just use aim | 04:03 |
| IdleOne | Maciel, no need to compile Gparted. start up Synaptic package manager or use sudo apt-get install gparted from a terminal | 04:03 |
| Maciel | ok... | 04:03 |
| Fryguy-- | linuxpwns: and besides that just listen to the messages it gave you and download the file correctly and try again | 04:03 |
| mneptok | Seven_Six_Two: there are god reasons to run a firewall. but simply having a public facing server doesn't translate into a need for a firewall. | 04:03 |
| * Gaming4J1 yawn... | 04:04 | |

| webcamwonder | Maciel: did you install gparted? | 04:08 |
| SrgSantos54 | fryguy how do i check the man pages | 04:08 |
| arooni-mobile | ok to everyone who told me i needed to use a cdr and not a dvdr for the cdiso of ubuntu; you were right; i was completely wrong; i have no idea why you cant burn a cd iso to a dvdr..... but apparently you cant | 04:08 |
| Gaming4J1 | Maciel: sudo apt-get install gparted | 04:08 |
| IdleOne | Maciel, you are certain it installed | 04:08 |
| Fryguy-- | SrgSantos54: use the man command | 04:08 |
| Rico | berl, what verison of Ubuntu? | 04:08 |
| IdleOne | although I just installed it also and cant find it either | 04:08 |
| SrgSantos54 | fryguy sorry new to linux | 04:08 |
| Fryguy-- | arooni-mobile: you can | 04:08 |
| yoyoned | Maciel: look in menu onder system>>administration | 04:08 |
| Maciel | yeah, I did that, it asked for my password, and then Terminal ran and closed | 04:08 |
| linuxpwns | i've used many linux instant messengers, but the ones i've used all seem to not login right | 04:09 |
| Maciel | it aint in system>>administration either | 04:09 |
| Fryguy-- | linuxpwns: pidgin is cross platform industry standard messenger, and has been for some time | 04:09 |

| ber1 | fryguy- i've installed flash the way the websites dictate. flash works, but sometimes (seemingly randomly) some flash-embedded sites will freeze firefox. its installed correctly as it works most of the time.. just not all the time | 04:09 |

| juan | Hi im looking for a internet browser that works from terminal.. any suggest? | 04:11 |
| ohzie | Fryguy--: I was trying to learn vim, until I read in the documentation that the one feature I wanted was not avialable in the console version. I hope I read it wrong. Regardless, it took me just that long to figure out how to do it in nano. | 04:11 |
| Cosmo-san | ber1, just install flashblock on that link I gave and only let good sites in. | 04:11 |
| IdleOne | Maciel, and 4 releases ago | 04:11 |
| arooni-mobile | i have two hard drives: harddrive a is old & dying; so i copied the partitoins (sda1 as /root/ and sda2 as /home) via dd to a new hard drive (hard drive b). now i physically removed hard drive a, and moved hard drive b to the exact ide channel (primary / slave) where the last one was & set the jumpers right. when i booted up i saw "GRUB".... so folks suggested that i boot from live cd and reinstall grub to the MBR. does | 04:11 |
| arooni-mobile | this sound like the right appraoch? now that i'm in the live CD: what do i need to do ? | 04:11 |
| Fryguy-- | ber1: best bet is to reread some tutorials and make sure you did it right, and otherwise install flashblock to block offending flash objects | 04:11 |
| ohzie | I just wanted to replace every instance of the word gutsy with the word hardy. =P | 04:11 |

| juan | yeap | 04:11 |
| Fryguy-- | ohzie: what are you trying to do? i've been using vim for nearly 10 years and am pretty proficient with it | 04:12 |
| juan | I want to use it on terminal | 04:12 |
| IdleOne | Maciel, when you typed sudo apt-get install gparted what did you get? | 04:12 |
| juan | just text, not graphic | 04:12 |
| ohzie | Fryguy--: Just replace every instance of the word gutsy with hardy in a text file. :P | 04:12 |
| ber1 | comsmo-san - the site doesn't matter. 4 out of 5 times regular sites like ubuntu work perfectly... and then they don't :( | 04:12 |

| Rico | juan, you might want to try lynx | 04:12 |
| Maciel | can't tell whether it installed or not | 04:12 |
| ohzie | Fryguy--: See that looks pretty simple, other than what's the g for? | 04:13 |
| juan | lynx? | 04:13 |
| juan | it is on the repos? | 04:13 |
| tech0007 | Maciel: 'dpkg -s gparted' to check | 04:13 |
| AndrewGearhart | Fryguy--: okay... I've done the changes with respect to the group policy editor... on the vista box... (despite the fact that most of the documentation that I found seemed to pertain to vista being able to connect to a samba share and not vice versa) ... and still the same message is received when I do sudo mount -t smbfs //192.168.1.100/a /mnt -o rw | 04:13 |
| nickolaus | Fryguy Her GUI isn't loading on the boot. She logs into her account via the command prompt and reconfigs xserver and then launches xserver. | 04:13 |
| ber1 | fryguy- the flash install tuts say "go to a website that requires flash. click "install flash-nonfree"." i can't really screw that up.. | 04:13 |
| Fryguy-- | ohzie: "global" as in "do more than once" | 04:13 |

| ohzie | Fryguy--: I will try to remember that line for next time. Thank you so much. <3 :) | 04:13 |
| Fryguy-- | ber1: dunno what to tell you, my flash works fine, everybody elses flash works fine, so you did something wrong | 04:13 |

| webcamwonder | DeadKennedy2880: No, What do you mean by Emulation? Virtualbox? | 04:14 |

| WalloO | DeadKennedy2880, wine = "Wine Is Not an Emulator" so it'S not an emulator. | 04:14 |
| webcamwonder | DeadKennedy2880: As long as you don't run a software that tries to delete all files, you should be good | 04:15 |

| fongkwan | I started grub and is in the grub prompt but there is no "grub" directory under directory "boot". Does anyone know why? | 04:16 |
| Fryguy-- | ohzie: freebsd server in the closet, vista x64 desktop, xp laptop, osx work machine, centos 5.1 development server | 04:16 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | so is that a unified NO" on the virus scanner? | 04:16 |
| Rico | not a problem, juan | 04:16 |
| webcamwonder | DeadKennedy2880: Yes | 04:16 |
| WalloO | DeadKennedy2880, yes, regarding wine, maybe most of the virus will not work properly, since wine developper do not work on virus support... :) | 04:16 |
| ohzie | Fryguy--: Do you find Vista to be comfortable? :( | 04:16 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | rock on, loving ubuntu just a little more | 04:16 |

| Fryguy-- | DeadKennedy2880: not at all | 04:17 |
| WalloO | webcamwonder, yes, some work, but the last time I saw a report on someone trying a virus with wine, the result was not so good. Virus uses non standard system to hide themself. | 04:17 |
| nickolaus | Fryguy she reconfiged her audio settings. Not sure what that had to do with xserver. Just wondering if it's a common error. The error on the boot is kinit: no resume image, doing normal boot... | 04:17 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | Fryguy-- i had to pet mine and water it everyday | 04:17 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | but i hadent the new service pack | 04:18 |
| Fryguy-- | albuntu: it's a harmless error for the most part, just make sure you set ServerName correctly in your apacheconf | 04:18 |
| amenado | fongkwan-> there is none if you did not install grub directory | 04:18 |
| arooni-mobile | how can i see all the message that display upon startup?: | 04:18 |
| Fryguy-- | nickolaus: that's not an error | 04:18 |

| Fryguy-- | arooni-mobile: dmesg | 04:18 |
| yoyoned | albuntu: make sure you hostname is is /etc/hosts | 04:18 |
| albuntu | Fryguy-- i thought so. thank you | 04:19 |
| WalloO | webcamwonder, you can take a look. But wine is in no way a target for virus, so you are quite safe... :) | 04:19 |

| arooni-mobile__ | i need to send a segate hard drive into segate for a warranty rma return. i have data on the drive that i would like it if no one saw.... whats the best way of getting rid of the data? | 04:24 |
| Fryguy-- | arooni-mobile__: boot n nuke (google it) | 04:24 |
| Flannel | arooni-mobile__: shred | 04:25 |
| tech0007 | arooni-mobile__:boot from a livecd then format it | 04:25 |
| ball | arooni-mobile__: dd | 04:25 |
| WalloO | arooni-mobile, low level format... or write zero on disk. Use ultimate boot cd to do that | 04:25 |
| Flannel | arooni-mobile__: shred is designed just for that purpose, and is builtin | 04:25 |
| Fryguy-- | ... aaaaaaaaaaaand my solution is the best | 04:25 |
| WalloO | tech0007, format is not good, since you can easily recover data | 04:25 |
| albuntu | Flannel that was absolutely helpful and perfect :) thank you very much | 04:25 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | arooni-mobile__ - i always wanted to wrpa a harddrive tightly with heavy guage wire and connecct the ends to a car battery to magnatize the drive, should kill everything on it | 04:26 |

| * ball votes for /dev/zero followed by /dev/random | 04:26 | |
| tech0007 | DeadKennedy2880: lol | 04:26 |

| DeadKennedy2880 | arooni-mobile__ - ive hammers work well | 04:26 |
| Flannel | arooni-mobile__: Boot from your other disk, and use shred on the disk you want to erase. No external media required | 04:26 |
| arooni-mobile__ | Flannel, awesome; | 04:26 |
| Flannel | arooni-mobile__: You'll probably want to give it a different default number of writes though. I believe it defaults to 21 | 04:27 |

I suspect I uninstall some package by mistake. Is there anyway I can verify if some dependency is missing, and which? thanks a lot! | 04:41 |
| ubott2 | To mount an ISO disc image, type « sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint> » - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning. | 04:41 |

| arooni____ | i was told to run dd in order to move my partitions from hard drive a to hard drive b. however i set up hard drive b with dfifferent sized partitions than hard drive a (larger in both cases). anyway dd finished & did copy over all my data. however on drive the /home partition took 122GB of space.... but on the new hard drive, /home takes 193GB of space. (i think dd preserved the amount of free space of 63.86GB) as i'm lookin | 04:44 |

| redbull | hi all | 04:46 |
| jZed | i tried to upgrade dapper with apt-get, it broke in the middle now I can't go forward or back (wrong python version) ... any ideas? I tried dpkg --configure -a | 04:46 |
| ASULutzy | This is weird, I can connect to my ssh server (it's running Hardy) while I'm running hardy with no problems, in Intrepid, I've copied over ~/.ssh/identity from the Hardy install as well as made sure the config files (/etc/ssh/ssh_config) are the same in Hardy and Intrepid, but I'm able to connect in Hardy, and not in Intrepid. if I try ssh 192.168.0.102 in Intrepid it just hangs and I never get a $USER@host:-$ prompt, but checking /v | 04:47 |
| jZed | my goal is to update to gutsy | 04:47 |
| redbull | anyone know use command ¨at¨ ? | 04:47 |
| jZed | and then to hardy | 04:47 |
| Flannel | jZed: Don't. Upgrade straight from dapper to hardy. | 04:48 |
| jZed | how? | 04:48 |
| n3kl | What do I need to do to get wpa to request a dhcp address? I am using kubuntu 8.04 kde4 packages with wpa_supplicant and knetworkmanager. Don't know if running both causes a problem. | 04:48 |
| tech0007 | jZed: or just install hardy straight | 04:48 |
| Flannel | jZed: Are you up to date with dapper? | 04:48 |
| jZed | tried with aptitude, it wouldn't, tried manually | 04:48 |
| lorenzo | tech0007, i get a very long page of data | 04:48 |
| jZed | i got up to date with dapper, then ran the apt-get dist-upgrade | 04:48 |
| Flannel | jZed: So, you're still with dapper, right? | 04:48 |
| jZed | but it stuck in the middle and now I lost parts of dapper | 04:48 |
| tech0007 | lorenzo: see any segfaults in the last few lines? | 04:48 |
| lorenzo | tech0007, nope | 04:49 |
| jZed | I have dapper CLI but no xorg | 04:49 |
| faca_ | oh yeah ... a channel that actually is alive ! | 04:49 |
| jZed | and other stuff is missing | 04:49 |
| Flannel | jZed: What wereyou upgrading to and from? | 04:49 |
| Flannel | jZed: since dist-upgrade on its own won't change your version. You need to give us more information. | 04:49 |
| tech0007 | lorenzo: 'ps aux | grep soffice' to see if a process is running | 04:49 |
| lorenzo | tech0007, am i just supposed to look for the word segfault? | 04:49 |
| jZed | trying to go from dapper to hardy when that didn't work from dapper to gutsy | 04:49 |
| phasegen | I keep my home dir on a separate partition, and intact for version upgrades of ubuntu. Edgy changed something so that evolution asks for access to default keyring every time it starts. I tried changing my password, and evolution still accepts only th old one. | 04:50 |
| Flannel | jZed: Well, dapper to hardy is here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades#Upgrade%20from%206.06%20LTS%20to%208.04%20LTS | 04:50 |

| mluser | Anyone having problems with firefox3 and adobe flash plugin? | 04:50 |
| jZed | flannel yeah that's the first thing I tried, it wouldn't let me upgrade | 04:50 |
| Flannel | jZed: But, depending on what you've actually done... you might be stuck with reinstalling. We can of course try and salvage it | 04:50 |
| jZed | so I went to apt-get | 04:50 |
| poseidon | phasegen, try running it with kdesu then changing your password ;) | 04:51 |
| tech0007 | lorenzo: better reinstall openoffice using synaptic | 04:51 |
| jZed | can I keep my current files if I reinstall? I'd just do it on a clean partition if I had room | 04:51 |
| phasegen | poseidon: in gnome? | 04:51 |
| tech0007 | jZed: yes,its advisable to keep a separate /home partition | 04:51 |
| Flannel | jZed: If you have a separate home partition, yeah. You can upgrade around it. If you don't have a separate home partition yet, you can easily make it that way | 04:51 |
| eugene_ | ls | 04:52 |
| Flannel | jZed: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome | 04:52 |
| poseidon | sorry, gdesu or whatever it is for gnome | 04:52 |
| poseidon | phasegen, ^^ | 04:52 |
| jZed | gparted won't let me resize anything and /home is on boot (I didn't set it up) | 04:52 |
| Flannel | jZed: you need to do it from a liveCD. You can't change mounted partitions | 04:53 |
| lorenzo | tech0007, so i tick just the OO suite? | 04:53 |
| tekryan | is there a package for realvnc | 04:53 |
| jZed | yep, tried from the live CD | 04:53 |
| tech0007 | lorenzo: completely remove it first, then install it | 04:53 |

| tech0007 | lorenzo: yes | 04:55 |
| lorenzo | tech0007 | 04:55 |
| jZed | guess I'll backup /home, wipe the partition, install new hardy, replace the backup | 04:55 |
| lorenzo | tech0007, ok thanks | 04:55 |

| === threethirty is now known as threethirty_away | ||
| Flannel | s3a: right. Firefox is the default browser, but its not the only one. | 06:20 |
| tech0007 | inflex-: http://bengross.com/smallunix.html | 06:20 |
| inflex- | thanks | 06:20 |
| tomasko | inflex-: try grml. it's debian based and _packed_ with software if you're not addicted to X | 06:21 |
| s3a | Flannel: wat r u trying to say? bcuz for gobuntu 8.04 being replaced by the f6 boot option, they said epiphany would replace firefox | 06:21 |
| tomasko | inflex-: though it does have some lightweight (as in dwm) X window managers | 06:21 |
| inflex- | tomasko: no X required | 06:21 |
| inflex- | it's purely being setup as a WWW / email server | 06:21 |
| Flannel | s3a: That could be. I don't understand what you're asking. | 06:21 |
| tomasko | grml all the way then. i used to like knoppix until i discovered grml. never regretted it | 06:21 |
| tomasko | props to enouf in ##linux for that btw. got me on that when i asked a similar question a few years ago | 06:22 |
| Ayabara | I have a problem. The 7 and 9 keys on my numpad restarts my X session. | 06:22 |
| === |roue| is now known as lymeca | ||
| s3a | Flannel: like, free software only means that by default there should be no proprietary apps and firefox has propriterary artwork therefore it should only be installed in the normal ubuntu (that was a big argument if thats wat u wanna call it bout gobuntu 7.10 not being free - because it had firefox) | 06:22 |
| kahrytan | tech0007, I tried rc.local | 06:22 |
| inflex- | tomasko: thanks for that - getting GRML now ;) | 06:23 |
| Flannel | s3a: And whats your question? | 06:23 |
| kahrytan | tech no enabled at boot | 06:23 |
| jbroome | Oh man, grml looks great. thanks tomasko, and thanks for asking inflex- :) | 06:23 |
| s3a | Flannel: y is firefox in my installation? lol | 06:23 |
| inflex- | :) | 06:23 |
| arooni-mobile | help! ubutnu hardy makes it so my sound card (intel 915 integrated) on my t61 works for a little whlie; then stops working :(... what can i do to fix? | 06:23 |
| kahrytan | How would i add the line "/etc/init.d/ufw start" to rc.local ? | 06:23 |
| s3a | Flannel: or is is from ubuntu 8.10 that firefox will be excluded? or am i doing sumtin wrong? or wat? | 06:24 |
| Flannel | s3a: I have no idea. You'll have to ask the gobuntu people. I believe its not until Intrepid. | 06:24 |
| * inflex- fires up a vmware session to test GRML in :) | 06:24 | |
| inflex- | okay, getting off topic now | 06:24 |
| tech0007 | kahrytan: add it before the "exit 0" line | 06:24 |
| kahrytan | tech0007, i did. And i left new line | 06:24 |
| s3a | Flannel: ok, i guess ill wait for 8.10 and if its still firefox come back for questioning and thx for helping me remove firefox completely btw | 06:25 |

| s3a | tech0007: as a plugin maybe?> | 06:40 |
| tech0007 | s3a: never tried it actually. | 06:40 |
| RH | hi | 06:40 |
| Wolphie | It isn't | 06:40 |
| brynjarh | or in other words is it Upstart that initializes Ubuntu? | 06:40 |
| philsf | amsn supports video | 06:40 |
| Ziroday | RH: hi | 06:40 |
| s3a | tech0007: me neither, ive always went to other clients cuz i couldnt find that feature but, i like how it only shows offline ppl if u want it to and u can have a select few offline ppl show | 06:40 |
| tomasko | brynjarh: init -> upstart i believe | 06:40 |
| RH | hi guys | 06:41 |
| fma243 | can any one help me mounting drives on boot up | 06:41 |
| RH | I just installed Ubuntu server for the first time and I need some help | 06:41 |
| Wolphie | Has anybody found a fix for flash? | 06:41 |
| Ziroday | fma243: you need to add them to /etc/fstab | 06:41 |
| brynjarh | tomasko: I don't understand what you said, "init -> upstart"? | 06:41 |
| Ziroday | !ask > RH | 06:41 |
| Ziroday | Wolphie: whats wrong? | 06:41 |
| fma243 | can u give me the things i might need to add just a template if u may | 06:41 |
| tomasko | brynjarh: i believe init calls upstart (all the /etc/event.d/ scripts) | 06:41 |
| Wolphie | You know about rubbish performance in full-screen? | 06:42 |
| Ziroday | fma243: lemme see if I can find you a guide | 06:42 |
| RH | after completion some DOS like windows comes and asks for username and pass | 06:42 |
| Ziroday | Wolphie: bug report? | 06:42 |
| Wolphie | Already been done, apparently it's a problem for a lot of people | 06:42 |
| Wolphie | Just wondering if anybody has found a fix | 06:42 |
| bazhang | RH, there is no gui for server | 06:42 |
| RH | if i give those then it says something seavacadmin@ubuntuseavac:~$ | 06:42 |
| brynjarh | tomasko: Okay, but do you know how I can change the initialization? For example how do I know which job/script is first initialized so I can add something there? | 06:43 |
| s3a | can sum1 help me assign a key on my keyboard to launch epiphany (web browser)? the keyboard shorcuts place doesnt seem to have anything for epiphany specifically | 06:43 |
| Ziroday | Wolphie: the bug report is the best place for that | 06:43 |
| Wolphie | I just said, it's already been done | 06:43 |
| berent | join #python | 06:43 |
| philsf | rh: what did you expect? | 06:44 |
| billeniu1 | For some reason when i restarted my computer, my sound stopped working... It worked before i restarted... what could be wrong? | 06:44 |
| Ziroday | Wolphie: here is the bug, subscribe yourself to it | 06:44 |
| fma243 | w8ting for help.... | 06:44 |
| Ziroday | Wolphie: no to monitor for fixes | 06:44 |
| Ziroday | fma243: Im searching as fast as I can | 06:44 |
| Frippera | fma243: template for fstab? | 06:45 |
| Ziroday | fma243: have a look at this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=283131 | 06:45 |

| bazhang | xjohnthomasx, 3945 right? | 07:05 |
| xjohnthomasx | oh yeah.. 3945 | 07:05 |
| bazhang | xjohnthomasx, ifconfig does not show it? | 07:05 |
| xjohnthomasx | not right now | 07:05 |
| xjohnthomasx | it did five minutes ago, before i did synaptic fix broken headers etc | 07:06 |
| esac | huge issue for me. i switch between wired/wireless a lot, and almost everytime when i do, i lose the wireless network. no networks show up at all in the wireless list, and i cant connect manually. ifconfig down/up or /etc/init.d/networking restart either. please help | 07:06 |
| xjohnthomasx | esac, probably have to make your wirelss driver part of the modules list.. | 07:07 |
| esac | xjohnthomasx: i assume it is if it works fine on boot without anything done on my part? | 07:07 |
| DesiSinger | bazhang - I already have the newest version of evolution-exchange installed | 07:07 |

| quicksilver_ | Can anybody help me out with my GPU issue? Ive noticed that any time my GPU hits 62 C, it crashes ubuntu.... Drives me insane when it happens to me at work. | 07:15 |
| nickrud | tonyyarusso you could try deleting ~/.gconfd/desktop/gnome/accessibility | 07:15 |
| _Net | quick question | 07:15 |
| Shaba1 | I do not know how long its been since I used a pop3/smtp program | 07:16 |
| _Net | When I installed ubuntu my battery life when from 6 hours on my laptop to 3 hours | 07:16 |
| t35t0r | Quicksilva, how do you know it's your GPU? | 07:16 |
| === Kwitschibo_ is now known as Kwitschibo | ||
| _Net | can anyone give me any idea why this happened\ | 07:16 |
| quicksilver_ | Just putting load on it. | 07:16 |
| t35t0r | Quicksilva, are you using lmsensors + gkrellm to monitor? | 07:16 |
| tonyyarusso | nickrud: ~/.gconfd/ is empty - did you mean ~/.gconf/ ? | 07:16 |
| quicksilver_ | It always happens when it gets to 62. | 07:16 |
| t35t0r | err quicksilver_ | 07:16 |
| nickrud | tonyyarusso yes, sorry | 07:16 |
| quicksilver_ | And yes, lmsensors, and the gnome applet. | 07:16 |
| t35t0r | quicksilver_, what are you using to monitor your gpu temp | 07:16 |
| t35t0r | ]ok | 07:16 |
| quicksilver_ | :) | 07:16 |
| nickrud | tonyyarusso make sure that gconfd is not running first | 07:17 |
| quicksilver_ | Yeah, its 62, on the button.. As soon as it gets there, its done, crashed. | 07:17 |

| houbysoft | hi. Hey could someone please help me? I want to convert videos for playing them on my iPod nano, so I created a shell script that uses ffmpeg. It worked fine on windows, but now I'm in ubuntu, and if I launch it it tells me "Unknown codec : libmp3lame". I tried also the mp3 codec, didn't work. How do I install that codec? I tried to install lame, but it still says the same thing... | 07:17 |
| quicksilver_ | t35t0r: Its supposed to idle at 35-45.. and get fragmentation at 90 or so. | 07:17 |
| amrik | houbysoft: did you try twolame? | 07:17 |
| houbysoft | no | 07:18 |
| nickrud | houbysoft try installing lame | 07:18 |
| DesiSinger | bazhang - thanks - i'll give it a try | 07:18 |
| xjohnthomasx | ziro, how do i install the tras | 07:18 |
| quicksilver_ | t35t0r: Its set to crash at 125 C | 07:18 |
| houbysoft | already did | 07:18 |
| xjohnthomasx | tars | 07:18 |
| bazhang | np | 07:18 |
| t35t0r | 125C !!! | 07:18 |
| houbysoft | how about that twolame? what's that? | 07:18 |
| quicksilver_ | Yep | 07:18 |
| _Net | No idea on why battery life is lowered on my ubuntu? | 07:18 |
| t35t0r | well i dunno | 07:18 |
| quicksilver_ | Ive read that all over the interwebs. | 07:18 |
| nickrud | houbysoft and liblame0 | 07:18 |
| t35t0r | i don't know why ubuntu would crash ..did you check lmsensors settiongs? | 07:18 |
| quicksilver_ | Im not sure if its a driver issue, or something else. | 07:18 |
| t35t0r | check /var/log/messages | 07:18 |
| tonyyarusso | nickrud: Nothing. | 07:19 |
| c0mp13371331337 | quicksilver_: What type of card? | 07:19 |
| t35t0r | quicksilver_, what is this an nvidia? | 07:19 |
| quicksilver_ | I have, it doesnt say anything that looks like the issue to me. | 07:19 |
| t35t0r | has to be nvidia | 07:19 |
| quicksilver_ | Its an nvidia 8600 GT | 07:19 |
| nickrud | tonyyarusso are you certain gconfd wasn't running? | 07:19 |
| lvlefisto | i installed a bigger monitor to my CPU, and then came back to my older CPU and now the Welcome Screen is black. i can't even login | 07:19 |
| tonyyarusso | nickrud: Reasonably. | 07:19 |
| t35t0r | quicksilver_, have a win partition? | 07:19 |
| t35t0r | quicksilver_, what about nvidia-settings' temp monitor? | 07:19 |
| quicksilver_ | My CPU (Q6600) idles at 45C.. And no, no windows partition | 07:19 |
| tonyyarusso | nickrud: the directory wasn't recreated or anything | 07:20 |
| quicksilver_ | The nvidia settings monitor says the same temp as lmsensors | 07:20 |
| t35t0r | i don't know about gpu temps ..CPU temps that idle is fine but a lil hot | 07:20 |
| t35t0r | shouldn't go over 60-70 | 07:20 |
| quicksilver_ | CPU shouldnt go over 60-70? | 07:20 |
| t35t0r | definately not over 70 | 07:20 |
| nickrud | tonyyarusso I was after the key .../accessibilty/startup/exec_ats . Not sure if gconf doesn't write the dir until it exits. | 07:20 |
| quicksilver_ | My cpu temps sometimes get to 55 on idle. | 07:21 |
| t35t0r | that's hot | 07:21 |
| t35t0r | 30-40 idle | 07:21 |
| quicksilver_ | And yes, I just blew out all the dust a few weeks ago... | 07:21 |
| quicksilver_ | 30-40? | 07:21 |
| t35t0r | yeah lemme check | 07:21 |
| quicksilver_ | Do you live in some place cold? | 07:21 |
| t35t0r | no | 07:21 |
| lvlefisto | i installed a bigger monitor to my CPU and do nothing, then i moved back to my older CPU. Now there is a black screen. Everything worked fine before that. What could it be the problem? | 07:21 |
| t35t0r | standard room temp | 07:21 |
| quicksilver_ | Its 35C on a normal day here. :) | 07:21 |
| quicksilver_ | Outside, I mean | 07:21 |
| t35t0r | quicksilver_, what's inside temp? | 07:22 |
| quicksilver_ | Sometimes inside the room, while Im at work. :) | 07:22 |
| quicksilver_ | As high as 35C while Im at work | 07:22 |
| t35t0r | hah | 07:22 |
| t35t0r | well ok then that's part of the prob | 07:22 |
| mkquist | quicksilver_: idk ive got same and its at 77 right now w/ambient of 54 no problems | 07:22 |
| quicksilver_ | But it still shouldnt crash at 62 C though. | 07:22 |
| t35t0r | lmsensors will complain at 78 by default | 07:22 |
| t35t0r | kernel messages will complain | 07:23 |
| russianspy | wow | 07:23 |
| quicksilver_ | I cant get to 78 | 07:23 |
| t35t0r | with or without lmsensors | 07:23 |
| quicksilver_ | As soon as I hit 62, I crash | 07:23 |
| t35t0r | that's for CPU | 07:23 |
| lvlefisto | i guess the problem is that, when i used the bigger monitor, the welcome screen changed settings for the screen resolution in Ubuntu. And now my older monitor doesn't support it. | 07:23 |
| quicksilver_ | And its a bad crash. :( | 07:23 |
| t35t0r | i dunno about gpu | 07:23 |
| lvlefisto | Could anyone help me with this? | 07:23 |
| houbysoft | LOL | 07:23 |
| Kyle__ | Hello russianspy | 07:24 |
| Kyle__ | Tis me | 07:24 |
| quicksilver_ | So... Maybe a bad GPU? | 07:24 |
| quicksilver_ | Or bad drivers. | 07:24 |
| t35t0r | would be nice if you could test it on _otherOs_ | 07:24 |
| quicksilver_ | Thats what I think Ive narrowed it down to. | 07:24 |
| t35t0r | or try other version driver | 07:24 |

| lvlefisto | can i enter in safe mode and change the default screen resolution of my welcome screen? | 07:24 |
| t35t0r | lvlefisto, you can do it outside of safe mode | 07:25 |
| c0mp13371331337 | t35t0r: Beat me to it. ;-) | 07:25 |
| quicksilver_ | Hmmmm... I could build another machine.. Id rather not put another OS on this. | 07:25 |
| lvlefisto | how? | 07:25 |

| russianspy | "I tried booting into ubuntu from a liveCD but it just goes blank | 07:25 |

| tonyyarusso | nickrud: oh well, this isn't accomplishing anything. Next step - reboot. Failing that, finally have an excuse to install 8.04.1 from scratch later this week. | 07:25 |
| quicksilver_ | Should I try win xp? | 07:25 |
| russianspy | can anyone help me? | 07:25 |

| jbroome | kandala: take out the /usr/bin/sh | 07:34 |

| t35t0r | sun-jdk-6 | 07:35 |
| PseudoBob | That doesn't allow you to run things in a terminal, does it? | 07:35 |

| jbroome | kandala: stick a #!/bin/sh as the first line of gen_reports and try again | 07:40 |
| Flannel | tomasko: I'd be happy to discuss further in #ubuntu-offtopic, as it'll get a bit lengthy for here | 07:40 |
| Tweaker | DistroJockey: I mean run windows game with out wine.. | 07:40 |
| wasob | Psh! Figures | 07:40 |
| wasob | I try to install a theme and FF crashes!!! | 07:40 |
| kandala | jbroome: okay. will try and ping you | 07:40 |
| DistroJockey | Tweaker, ohh, no idea | 07:40 |
| Tweaker | Well, Hmm DistroJockey | 07:40 |
| quicksilver_ | t35t0r: The last time I tried to do that, I couldnt get into GNOME. :) So Ive been a chicken ever since. | 07:40 |
| tomasko | btw, for all my bitching, i also want to say that wubi is a fantastic idea and i got a few family members on the kubuntu-kde4 version (which has some quirks, but it's a work in progress, so i should have expected that) | 07:40 |
| DistroJockey | Tweaker, actually no, you need wine | 07:40 |

| wasob | Firefox's stability between versions has seriously flawed in the later versions in my opinion | 07:40 |

| ubott2 | LTS means Long Term Support. LTS versions of Ubuntu will be supported for 3 years on the desktop, and 5 years on the server. | 07:40 |

| ubott2 | Background to the decision to replace -686, k7 and -smp kernels with -generic can be found here https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-August/019983.html (the -386 kernel is still available if needed) | 07:44 |

| Unislash | any ideas? | 07:45 |
| ubott2 | RedHerring: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 07:45 |

| Gigs | Does anyone have skype audio working on 8.04? If not then I might as well put 7.10 back on here. | 07:47 |
| Slart | Gigs: works for me | 07:47 |
| Gigs | I have spent about 6 hours on this pulseaudio mess now. | 07:47 |
| t35t0r | enos, check the kernel .config | 07:47 |
| Banditul | i did a bad thing: i removed all groups and now they are back ...but i can't fix the sound ...is anyone that can offer me a solution ? | 07:47 |
| Slart | Gigs: but it won't use pulseaudio iirc.. I just uses alsa | 07:47 |
| t35t0r | enos, kind of stupid that they didn't compile support for /proc/config.gz | 07:47 |
| Gigs | Slart: it's not getting along | 07:47 |
| t35t0r | enos, then you can check the build opts for lots of programs somehow in dpkg | 07:48 |
| t35t0r | what's the equivalent of rpm -qa using dpkg? | 07:48 |
| t35t0r | dpkg -p * ? | 07:48 |
| Slart | Gigs: no audio output ? | 07:48 |
| t35t0r | nope that expands the shell | 07:48 |
| Gigs | Slart: yeah pretty much no audio either way | 07:48 |
| Flannel | t35t0r: What does that do? | 07:48 |
| Gigs | Slart: I tried getting rid of pulseaudio completely, then it would use dmix for audio output, but audio input was broken | 07:48 |
| t35t0r | list all installed packages | 07:49 |
| Gigs | so I reinstalled pulseadio | 07:49 |

| Shaba1 | sorry I discoed myself by mistake | 07:49 |
| Gigs | Slart: trying to use only dmix broke tons of other apps | 07:49 |
| Unislash | just curious: is this message going through? | 07:49 |
| Shaba1 | did I miss and answer? | 07:49 |

| bazhang | Unislash, yes | 07:50 |
| Unislash | k :) | 07:50 |
| Gigs | well, and second life also fails, because it also tries to use alsa directly | 07:50 |
| t35t0r | i dunno if it's possible to get compile flags from dpkg | 07:50 |
| DistroJockey | Shaba1, no, but I have not seen your question yet | 07:50 |
| t35t0r | dpkg -s didn't give it | 07:50 |
| Gigs | pulseaudio is grabbing alsa exclusively | 07:50 |
| Unislash | just curious... (i've asked like 5 questions throught the last few hours with no responses at all :/) | 07:50 |
| GNUger | brightness keys not working.. | 07:50 |
| Slart | Gigs: hmm.. I don't think pulseaudio grabs alsa like that.. at least it doesn't do that for me.. | 07:51 |

| Amsunaakage | ok i ran the VMware-install.pl and all worked well till i get this message and i cant escape it "Trying to find a suitable vmxnet module for your running kernel.......None of the pre-built vmxnet modules for vmware tools is suitable for your running kernel. Do you want this program to try to build the vmxnet module for your system ( you need to have a C compiler installed on your System) ? [Yes] " | 08:09 |
| Shaba1 | stevo nope | 08:09 |
| Shaba1 | and it shows folder icons not tabs btw | 08:09 |
| jbroome | Amsunaakage: then say yes and let it build the damn module | 08:09 |
| Amsunaakage | i say yes and it tells me to locatre the c compiler for it | 08:10 |
| Amsunaakage | and i dont know where is it :( | 08:10 |
| jbroome | Amsunaakage: do you have build-essential installed? | 08:10 |
| stevo | Shabal on the command line you can type sudo fdisk -l to list all the drives and their partitions (you want to look for the one that is your ntfs partition) | 08:10 |
| Amsunaakage | sorry but i gues snot | 08:10 |
| willwapsiwilly | does anyone know how to get a broadcom driver recognized in 8.04? | 08:10 |
| PseudoBob | Alright, I think I figured out the problem | 08:11 |
| stevo | Shabal you should be able to find the disk like /dev/sda or /dev/hda and then find the partition as 1, 2, 3, or 4 etc. so you get /dev/sda2 for example as where the ntfs partition is | 08:11 |
| rubydiamond | how to check current line number in less | 08:11 |
| willwapsiwilly | ruby invoke in with -N | 08:12 |
| joaopinto | Amsunaakage, sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-$(uname -r) | 08:13 |
| Shaba1 | I think I saw that a couple of weeks ago when I was using grub to instal xubuntu stevo | 08:13 |
| Shaba1 | but let me check again | 08:14 |
| Shaba1 | hold on | 08:14 |
| fenDy58 | I seem to have installed the Shockwave flash plugin to the wrong directory. YouTube plays the video but there is no audio. Any suggestions? | 08:14 |
| Amsunaakage | setup was unable to find the gcc program on your machine plz make sure it is installed , do you want to specify the location of it by hand ?? does installing buildessential will fix this ? | 08:14 |
| willwapsiwilly | does anyone know what to do with a wireless card that won't show up in iwconfig? | 08:14 |
| === desti_T2 is now known as desti | ||
| jbroome | Amsunaakage: yes, that's why we suggested you install it | 08:15 |
| soldats | Amsunaakage: yes | 08:15 |
| joaopinto | Amsunaakage, please read my previous answer | 08:15 |
| jeeves__ | anyone? how do I find out why Gnome keeps freezing on me? | 08:16 |
| Shaba1 | ok stevo | 08:16 |
| Shaba1 | damn he left | 08:16 |
| bullgard4 | What program generates the Ubuntu splash screen? (http://news.softpedia.com/images/reviews/large/installfeistyfawn-large_003.png) | 08:17 |
| willwapsiwilly | jeeves check the terminal output | 08:17 |
| arooni-mobile__ | something weird happened to my live gutsy cd.... before it promped me for what language to boot to ... and had nice splash screen (and booted just fine).... now the same disk is giving me a command line prompt saying "press enter to load default system".... whats going on? | 08:17 |
| nickrud | PseudoBob how about sharing, we might see something similar in the future | 08:17 |
| enos | ERROR: Your architecture, \'x86_64\', is not supported by the Adobe Flash Player installer. | 08:18 |
| enos | what in the world! HELP! | 08:18 |
| bazhang | !flash64 | 08:18 |
| ubottu | You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava | 08:18 |
| jeeves__ | shabal: can you help me with this Gnome problem? | 08:19 |
| amrik | enos: caveat: flash will not work as advertised =\ adobe doesnt seem willing to support 64 bit at all | 08:19 |
| Shaba1 | you probably know more then I do | 08:19 |
| arooni-mobile__ | is the live cd i have toast when it stalls on * Running local boot scripts (/etc/rc.local)? | 08:19 |
| Unislash | hey guys, when i'm trying to run my livecd, it hangs up when trying to run local boot scripts | 08:20 |
| Unislash | lol | 08:20 |
| Unislash | uhm... well, i sure hope not :P | 08:20 |
| enos | amrik: Any substitutes for that software? | 08:20 |
| soldats | arooni-mobile__: press enter | 08:20 |
| nickrud | bullgard4 pretty sure it's run by gnome-session, according to gconf-editor keys | 08:20 |
| soldats | arooni-mobile__: i mean when it gets to that point press enter | 08:20 |
| joaopinto | enos, please install the flash plugin from the repositories | 08:20 |
| enos | joaopinto: Done | 08:20 |
| Unislash | soldats: all that does is make a new line | 08:20 |
| amrik | enos: unfortunately no, and due to the closed nature of flash player its pretty difficult to reverse engineer | 08:20 |
| bullgard4 | nickrud: Ok. Thank you. | 08:20 |
| arooni-mobile__ | soldats, no effect :( | 08:20 |
| Unislash | soldats: (i have the same problem) | 08:20 |
| amrik | enos: :( 64-bit linux + flash don't mix particularly well. you might have better luck than i did though | 08:21 |
| brynjarh | Can I put bash scripts in /etc/rcS.d ? Cause I've noticed that the once put there by default are all sh scripts. | 08:21 |
| DistroJockey | Shaba1, so you know now which drive/partition you need to access? | 08:21 |
| soldats | weird it does it to me as well but i press enter and it gives me the login cli prompt | 08:21 |
| arooni-mobile__ | Unislash, hah you too??? | 08:21 |
| Shaba1 | I just did "man mount" | 08:21 |
| Shaba1 | how do I get the page to scroll | 08:21 |
| joaopinto | brynjarh, that is a special location for start/stop scripts, not regular scripts | 08:21 |
| Unislash | yea, me too | 08:21 |
| Shaba1 | in windows that would be pgdn key | 08:22 |
| joaopinto | and those are links to scripts on init.d , not the real scripts | 08:22 |
| DistroJockey | Shaba1, space or PgDn | 08:22 |
| joaopinto | Shaba1, space and backspace | 08:22 |
| Unislash | it appears to also happen when you stop gdm as well | 08:22 |
| Unislash | (in your actual install) | 08:22 |
| PseudoBob | why won't the terminal let me move to /home ? | 08:22 |
| PseudoBob | just goes back to the desktop | 08:22 |
| joaopinto | PseudoBob, hum ? cd /home ? | 08:22 |
| enos | amrik: mozilla-plugin-gnash ...found it ;-) | 08:23 |
| soldats | arooni-mobile__: if it gives you a new line try entering your username <enter> password <enter> and see what happens | 08:23 |
| PseudoBob | ok, so then how do i get down to my user folder | 08:23 |
| joaopinto | enos, please use adobe flash instead of gnash, gnash is very limited | 08:23 |
| Shaba1 | Ok | 08:23 |
| brynjarh | joaopinto: What do you mean start/stop scripts? As I understand it the scripts there are the once that are executed first when Ubuntu is initialized, what I'm trying to do is alter the initialization of Ubuntu. | 08:23 |
| Unislash | soldats: nothing happens | 08:23 |
| Shaba1 | how do I "mount" the ntfs partition so I can see it in tundar | 08:23 |
| joaopinto | brynjarh, use /etc/rc.local for that | 08:24 |
| enos | joaopinto: k | 08:24 |
| arooni-mobile__ | soldats, you mean a new line after running r.local boot scripts? | 08:24 |
| joaopinto | brynjarh, rc.d are software scripts, not custom scripts | 08:24 |
| soldats | arooni-mobile__: yea | 08:24 |
| amrik | enos: that comes with caveats as well, as in it doesnt support much of the newer flash v8 and v9 extensions (closed nature of flash etc. etc.) so i dont know how many websites will work with that | 08:24 |
| arooni-mobile__ | soldats, but its stalled there; and isnt moving | 08:25 |
| arooni-mobile__ | it flashes a couple times | 08:25 |
| arooni-mobile__ | but then hangs there | 08:25 |
| DistroJockey | Shaba1, I'd make a directory under /mnt (sudo mkdir /mnt/somename) then I'd mount /dev/sdxx /mnt/somename (xx being the drive and partition you want) | 08:26 |
| soldats | arooni-mobile__: hmm weird, ive never had it hang or stall. its interesting though. not sure what to do. but i need to go but ill look into it tomorrow | 08:26 |
| Unislash | heh, well, you've got two users who have the same problem :P | 08:26 |
| arooni-mobile__ | soldats, i'm reburnging a nother cd as we speak | 08:26 |
| Unislash | i wonder what's the same about us | 08:26 |
| Unislash | arooni: what's your gfx card? (that's what i'm having problems with) | 08:26 |
| joaopinto | arooni-mobile__, you should check the md5sum of the image, blind reburning a CD does not usually help | 08:27 |
| arooni-mobile__ | Unislash, geforce 7300 | 08:27 |
| lymeca | You may have set "ximagesink" (X Window System (No Xv)) as video-output. This means, that your cpu is doing all the work. Change it to "xvimagesink" (X Window System (X11/XShm/Xv)) in order to let your graphics card do the work. | 08:27 |
| DistroJockey | Shaba1, sudo infront of the mount command ofcourse | 08:27 |
| arooni-mobile__ | joaopinto, md5 of image is solid; checked it | 08:27 |
| lymeca | How do I do this??????????? | 08:27 |
| arooni-mobile__ | joaopinto, this cd was booting fine before | 08:27 |
| PseudoBob | My god this is confusing. Why do files that you save to your home folder show up in the desktop folder? | 08:27 |
| joaopinto | arooni-mobile__, have you done any hw change after the last time you have used the CD ? | 08:27 |
| simplyubuntu | hey guys. for some reason, my dvd drive doesn't mount when I insert a dvd... im using hardy... the light on the drive starts flashing and I can hear it spinning, but no icon appears | 08:27 |
| joaopinto | PseudoBob, they do not | 08:28 |
| arooni-mobile__ | joaopinto, yeah; i disconnected power from a hard drive | 08:28 |
| arooni-mobile__ | or added power i think | 08:28 |
| simplyubuntu | and dmesg | tail gives nothing abt the dvd drive | 08:28 |
| PseudoBob | Well they do for me... | 08:28 |
| joaopinto | arooni-mobile__, your problem is related to that change, not to the CD | 08:28 |
| arooni-mobile__ | was still plugged into mobo | 08:28 |
| arooni-mobile__ | joaopinto, why should that matter? | 08:28 |
| arooni-mobile__ | the cd is the cd | 08:28 |
| arooni-mobile__ | ;p | 08:28 |
| PseudoBob | well, obviously under my user name | 08:29 |
| DistroJockey | simplyubuntu, is it listed in /media | 08:29 |
| PseudoBob | not the home folder | 08:29 |
| joaopinto | arooni-mobile__, well it may change the hard drives ordering in away that may be causing a bug so that the kernel is unable to recognized your hd/cd drives | 08:29 |
| craigjw | morning all | 08:29 |
| joaopinto | PseudoBob, have you tried to manually mount it ? | 08:30 |
| arooni-mobile__ | joaopinto, well i tried undoing what i did with no effect | 08:30 |
| Shaba1 | disto | 08:30 |
| willwapsiwilly | installed b43 firmware for my broadcom wireless chip, but it still won't show up in iwlist. can anyone help? | 08:30 |
| Shaba1 | why give it a file name | 08:30 |
| Shaba1 | not that I am against that at all | 08:30 |
| PseudoBob | Ugh... I don't know. | 08:30 |
| simplyubuntu | DistroJockey yes there is cdrom0 in media but nothing in it | 08:30 |
| Shaba1 | jut want to know the advantages and disavatages of it | 08:30 |
| DistroJockey | Shaba1, you need to mount that partition somewhere | 08:30 |
| jeeves__ | I'm having an issue with my Gnome desktop. it will lock up the applications, and won't let me switch to other terms, but the mouse still moves. ideas? | 08:30 |
| PseudoBob | It's 3:30 here. I shouldn't even be up, let alone driving or operating machinery. | 08:30 |
| DistroJockey | simplexio, faulty disk or drive is my only thought atm | 08:31 |
| arooni-mobile__ | joaopinto, i have no idea what to do now | 08:31 |
| DistroJockey | simplexio, sorry that was for simplyubuntu | 08:31 |
| joaopinto | arooni-mobile__, sorry, neither do I :P | 08:31 |
| craigjw | I need some advice re best way to view Firewall logs. I have a Ubuntu Server running as a Firewall which is all good but I need a good Windows GUI to view and interrogate logs, any advice? | 08:31 |
| bazhang | arooni-mobile__, you bought some new cd's? | 08:31 |
| jeeves__ | DistroJockey, do you have any ideas on this Gnome issue? | 08:31 |
| Unislash | joapinto: i'm having the same problem as arooni-mobile_. I'm definitely ready to reinstall ubuntu to try to fix it, but i can't if htis livecd doesn't work :P | 08:32 |
| DistroJockey | jeeves__, I recall you saying it freezes. Was there anything you added that I missed? | 08:32 |
| simplyubuntu | DistroJockey what was? | 08:32 |
| bazhang | arooni-mobile__, you were having trouble with a dvd-rw iirc | 08:32 |
| DistroJockey | simplyubuntu, , faulty disk or drive is my only thought atm | 08:32 |
| Shaba1 | so like 'sudo mkdir /mnt/windowsCdrive | 08:33 |
| Shaba1 | then | 08:33 |
| simplyubuntu | DistroJockey thought so too. its probably the drive. plays some dvds | 08:33 |
| arooni-mobile__ | bazhang, yeah that helped me boot to ubuntu live cd once or twice.... but now it wont boot anymore | 08:33 |
| bazhang | arooni-mobile__, you bought new cd's? | 08:33 |
| Shaba1 | correct DistroJockey | 08:33 |
| arooni-mobile__ | bazhang, yes!! | 08:33 |
| Shaba1 | ? | 08:33 |
| simplyubuntu | DistroJockey what's weird is that my macbooks dvd rive is also not working | 08:33 |
| Unislash | bazhang: and i'm having the same problem, and i didn't have a problem with dvd-rw :) | 08:33 |
| arooni-mobile__ | sorry i thought i already answered ;p | 08:33 |
| arooni-mobile__ | bazhang, i was burning the cd image onto a dvddr | 08:34 |
| bazhang | arooni-mobile__, burn again at very low speed; what brand media is it? | 08:34 |
| arooni-mobile__ | bazhang, maxwell | 08:34 |
| Shaba1 | Well /mount sda1 /mnt/WindowsCDrive | 08:34 |
| arooni-mobile__ | i had no idea brand/etc mattered | 08:34 |
| Shaba1 | is what I mean to type | 08:34 |
| arooni-mobile__ | or what speed you burned at | 08:34 |
| bazhang | they both matter arooni-mobile__ | 08:34 |
| Unislash | hey, cool, my livecd is working now.... dunno what i did | 08:34 |
| joaopinto | they matter mostly when your cd/dvd writer sucks :P | 08:35 |
| Unislash | arooni: try it again, it might just work :P | 08:35 |
| Unislash | (try booting from livecd, i mean) | 08:35 |
| simplyubuntu | DistroJockey a lot of cd drive related issues atm don't you think? | 08:35 |
| Shaba1 | did i use to just spin and spin and make a clucking noise | 08:35 |
| Shaba1 | ?? | 08:35 |
| DistroJockey | Shaba1, so far so good | 08:35 |
| DistroJockey | simplyubuntu, *nods* | 08:35 |
| DistroJockey | Shaba1, sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt. WindowsCDrive | 08:35 |
| DistroJockey | Shaba1, sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/WindowsCDrive ^^^ | 08:35 |
| DistroJockey | simplyubuntu, yeah, that is a bit odd | 08:35 |
| Shaba1 | slah not dot right DistroJockey? | 08:36 |
| PseudoBob | Does anyone here know anything about java? | 08:36 |
| DistroJockey | Shaba1, nope, my last entry is the correct one | 08:36 |
| simplyubuntu | DistroJockey could it have something to do with an update? | 08:36 |
| craigjw | Any firewall guru's please PM me, thanks | 08:36 |
| arooni-mobile__ | Unislash, damn it | 08:36 |
| joaopinto | !anyone | PseudoBob | 08:36 |
| ubottu | PseudoBob: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 08:36 |
| Shaba1 | Ok how do I get out of the man page and back to the command prompt | 08:37 |
| bazhang | hit q | 08:37 |
| joaopinto | Shaba1, q , for quit | 08:37 |
| PseudoBob | ... | 08:37 |
| PseudoBob | I'm confused. | 08:37 |
| Unislash | arooni: what? :/ | 08:37 |
| arooni-mobile__ | Unislash, cuz i want mine to work :P | 08:38 |
| DistroJockey | simplyubuntu, possible, I did get a 24-19 kernel update when I already had that *shrugs* | 08:38 |
| DistroJockey | I'm getting serious lag here :( | 08:38 |

| Lava | hi, i want to play .wma's in rhythmbox, yet it is not possible | 08:39 |
| Lava | can someone help me on that? | 08:39 |
| PseudoBob | Ok. I finally successfully compiled my first java script into a .class file, but now my interpreter doesn't seem to want to work. | 08:39 |
| joaopinto | PseudoBob, java scripts are not compiled, you mean a java source file | 08:40 |
| PseudoBob | Sure. | 08:40 |
| Unislash | well, i have another problem now.... gparted nor the install program will recognize that i have partitions on my disk | 08:40 |
| Unislash | any help with that one? | 08:40 |
| joaopinto | and no, this is not the proper channel for development, try either #ubuntu-java, or #java :P | 08:40 |
| Shaba1 | ok DistroJockey you still here | 08:40 |
| Shaba1 | ? | 08:40 |
| DistroJockey | Shaba1, yep | 08:41 |
| PseudoBob | Is there really a #ubuntu-java, or are you just messing with me? | 08:41 |
| simplyubuntu | DistroJockey should I try mounting manually? | 08:41 |
| Shaba1 | the whole reason I asked that was so I could see my windwos partition under tundar file manager | 08:41 |
| joaopinto | PseudoBob, I believe there is, but there is nothing like checking | 08:41 |
| DistroJockey | simplyubuntu, yeah, can't hurt | 08:41 |
| Shaba1 | I just did what you said | 08:41 |
| Shaba1 | and it still does not show up | 08:41 |
| DistroJockey | Shaba1, never heard of tundar | 08:41 |
| PseudoBob | Wow, turns out there is. | 08:41 |
| bazhang | thunar | 08:41 |
| simplyubuntu | hmm its doing something | 08:41 |
| Shaba1 | It come with xubuntu | 08:42 |
| PseudoBob | Thanks, sorry to bother y'all >_< | 08:42 |
| DistroJockey | ahh | 08:42 |
| DistroJockey | Shaba1, can you see it in a terminal if you type: ls /mnt/WindowsCDrive ? | 08:42 |

| pria-30 | cewek | 08:43 |
| Shaba1 | DistroJockey yep that works | 08:43 |

| Shaba1 | I was hoping to see it in the graphical file manager | 08:44 |
| Shaba1 | tundar | 08:44 |
| DistroJockey | Shaba1, and in Thunar if you browse there it doesn't exist? | 08:44 |

| DistroJockey | :) | 08:44 |
| Shaba1 | No it does not | 08:44 |
| binskipy2u | hey everyone i have a kinda stupid question, i just bought a new 64bit computer, and now dualbooting with ubuntu 8.04.. its "missing" 450mb of ram.. but i just realized its my first 64bit computer.. so i sh ouldve used x86_64 ubuntu | 08:44 |
| pbp | i cant find System>preferences>Hardware Information in menu. What to do | 08:44 |
| binskipy2u | does it make a major "difference" in performance? | 08:45 |
| pbp | ? | 08:45 |
| binskipy2u | i'm happy with the way its working now | 08:45 |
| DistroJockey | Shaba1, odd, no idea why, I don't use Thunar. I can't see why it wouldn't though | 08:45 |
| === pria-30 is now known as ce_baek | ||
| binskipy2u | is it "worth" installing the 64bit anyway? | 08:45 |
| simplyubuntu | Shaba1 try #xubuntu | 08:45 |
| binskipy2u | is there that much of a difference in speed, performance besides seeing "all the system" ram? | 08:45 |
| Shaba1 | nO one ever at the keys there simplyubuntu | 08:45 |
| Shaba1 | that is why I come here | 08:45 |
| DistroJockey | binskipy2u, I'd have to say it's not worth it | 08:46 |
| Shaba1 | http://www.xfce.org/projects/thunar | 08:46 |
| binskipy2u | its seeing almost 3.5gigs ram | 08:46 |
| arooni-mobile__ | DistroJockey, why do u say that | 08:46 |
| binskipy2u | when i have 4 | 08:46 |
| jbroome | binskipy2u: probably "not" for the average "user". It's not worth the hassle with stuff like "flash" or "java" | 08:46 |
| simplyubuntu | DistroJockey when in doubt restart :) | 08:46 |
| DistroJockey | arooni-mobile__, less supported at this stage | 08:46 |
| Lava | can someone help me on how to play .wma in Rhythmbox? Thanks | 08:46 |
| arooni-mobile__ | the live cd is finally booting!!!!!!!!!! woot! | 08:46 |
| binskipy2u | is there issues with flash/java? | 08:46 |
| joaopinto | jbroome, flash and java work fine on 64 bits, at least with Hardy | 08:46 |
| binskipy2u | and other packages when using a 64bit ubuntu? | 08:47 |
| arooni-mobile__ | i reset my bios defaults; and that was all it took | 08:47 |
| binskipy2u | in general? | 08:47 |
| === pria-30 is now known as ce_baek | ||
| joaopinto | binskipy2u, not in my experience | 08:47 |
| UBUNTUJAY123 | hi all sup | 08:47 |
| binskipy2u | anyone else? if you accidently installed a 32bit ubuntu 8.04 on a 64bit system and it seems to be fast, responsive etc, but its missing 450mb out of 4gigs ram | 08:48 |

| joaopinto | binskipy2u, no, the overall performance is what matters most | 08:48 |
| DistroJockey | binskipy2u, I'd install a kernel with PAE support maybe, but not 64bit | 08:48 |
| UBUNTUJAY123 | i have been reading about hack the kernel to make it better and to fix bugs it said to use emacs it that a good program to use | 08:49 |
| binskipy2u | just wondering | 08:49 |
| binskipy2u | i have this set up nicely and i like it.but i'm lookking for opinions | 08:49 |
| joaopinto | UBUNTUJAY123, that depends on your preferences, nothing we can help with | 08:49 |
| jbroome | UBUNTUJAY123: you might want to find an editor you like before you start kernel hacking | 08:49 |
| jbroome | baby steps | 08:50 |
| UBUNTUJAY123 | iam just now getting into it and what i have been reading is it said to use emacs | 08:50 |
| UBUNTUJAY123 | and if that what u should use thats what i want to start with useing | 08:50 |
| DistroJockey | binskipy2u, if you can work out how to install the Ubuntu server kernel and also keep your current as a backup, it may be worth it. (not tried as I only have 1.5GB :( ) | 08:50 |
| binskipy2u | ok | 08:51 |
| binskipy2u | was hoping for more opinions | 08:51 |
| binskipy2u | i dont 'Mind" re-installing | 08:51 |
| DistroJockey | binskipy2u, hang around then :) | 08:51 |
| UBUNTUJAY123 | like my dad always saide no use useing a shovel when theres a backhoe to use | 08:51 |
| binskipy2u | but i wanna know if ill actually notice something | 08:51 |
| binskipy2u | lol | 08:51 |
| joaopinto | UBUNTUJAY123, we do not kernel hacking, and like you already suggested, first select an edtor that you like, later you may think on kernel hacking | 08:51 |
| UBUNTUJAY123 | ok thanks iam going to go back to reading | 08:52 |
| chetan_ | hi | 08:52 |
| Nicekiwi9 | how can i setup the system proxy in xubuntu? | 08:52 |
| UBUNTUJAY123 | and see what i can come up with | 08:52 |
| Nicekiwi9 | someone please? :) | 08:52 |
| joaopinto | Nicekiwi9, try asking on #xubuntu, anyway usually the proxy is something you set at the application level, not system wide | 08:53 |
| arooni-mobile__ | im trying to move all data from an old hard drive to a new hard drive. i copied all partitions using cp -ax ... and to test whether i did it right i booted up without using the replacement hard drive.... it sorta booted but i got stuck with busyboxy (ash) with the prompt (initramfs) or something.... whad i do wrong? | 08:54 |
| lwg | hello | 08:54 |
| borbit | anyone some idea about how i can fix me wireles? | 08:54 |
| MidnightHacker | im trying to install a game thats 2 cds and when it ask for the second cd i cant unmount the first one? | 08:54 |
| joaopinto | arooni-mobile__, I would never copy a system partition with cp, I am not sure it will handle special file types like devices... | 08:55 |
| DistroJockey | arooni-mobile__, if you are looking to "clone" a hard drive or partition dd is probably a better option | 08:55 |
| joaopinto | MidnightHacker, why not ? you should be able to unmount it from a terminal | 08:55 |
| joaopinto | dd or partimage | 08:55 |
| MidnightHacker | tried says another app is preventing it from unmounting | 08:56 |
| lwg | open the cd driver | 08:56 |
| Shaba1 | No DistroJockey just lookign to see it under xubuntu | 08:56 |
| arooni-mobile__ | DistroJockey, i did dd the first time;;; it also managed to screw things up ... plus the disk i'm reading from is suspect (i'm rmaing it back to segate) | 08:56 |
| MidnightHacker | shows the another app is preventing it from unmounting if i hit the eject button on the cd rom | 08:56 |
| MidnightHacker | or click unmount volume | 08:57 |
| DistroJockey | arooni-mobile__, ahh, bummer :( | 08:57 |
| mgolisch | its mostlikely the installer thats running | 08:57 |
| lwg | o? | 08:57 |
| joaopinto | is that a linux-aware game ? | 08:57 |
| MidnightHacker | so what can i do?? | 08:57 |
| MidnightHacker | no | 08:57 |
| MidnightHacker | but i have wine | 08:57 |
| mgolisch | or you cded into the cdrom mountpoint or something first | 08:57 |
| joaopinto | please ask on #winehq | 08:57 |
| MidnightHacker | its counter-strike antholgy | 08:57 |
| lwg | turn off the power | 08:58 |
| DistroJockey | Shaba1, I can't understand why you would not see it under /mnt | 08:58 |
| lwg | and turn on again | 08:58 |
| mgolisch | MidnightHacker: did you cd into the mountpint? | 08:58 |
| Shaba1 | I can | 08:58 |
| mgolisch | that will prevent you from umounting the cdrom drive | 08:58 |
| joaopinto | mgolisch, he is running the installer *from* the cd, that is why it is locked | 08:58 |
| lwg | then hit the dject button on the cd rom | 08:58 |
| mgolisch | theres wine-eject or something | 08:59 |
| MidnightHacker | no i just put the cd in and open computer and the cd mounted it and opend it and click install.exe | 08:59 |
| Shaba1 | but I do not want to have to drop to a terminal every time I just want to copy a file fromt the windows partition to the linux partition | 08:59 |
| mgolisch | no idea if that works | 08:59 |
| DistroJockey | Shaba1, can you see /mnt in Thunar at all? | 08:59 |
| Shaba1 | yes | 08:59 |
| Shaba1 | and I see the file I created | 08:59 |
| potf | how to change wine's C:\ drive location? | 08:59 |
| Shaba1 | I named it C:drive | 08:59 |
| DistroJockey | Shaba1, that is a directory not a file | 08:59 |
| Shaba1 | yes | 09:00 |
| DistroJockey | Shaba1, don't use : in names | 09:00 |
| Shaba1 | it I mean folder/directory | 09:00 |
| timandtom | My resolution is stuck at 1440*900... I think it MIGHT have something to do with how screw my motherboard was acting when I installed 7.10. Is there some simple way to just have Ubuntu attempt to detect/setup stuff for my video card again? (It's an old ATI Sapphire) | 09:00 |
| Shaba1 | ah | 09:00 |
| Shaba1 | damn | 09:00 |
| lwg | oh , i am sorry | 09:00 |
| MidnightHacker | any suggestions? | 09:00 |
| DistroJockey | Shaba1, you said you called it WindowsCDrive earlier | 09:00 |
| lwg | i have not | 09:00 |
| lwg | any more | 09:00 |
| Shaba1 | ok how do I "unmount" it so I can delete it adn give it a proper name without a : | 09:00 |
| Shaba1 | I thought C:Drive mad more sense DistroJockey | 09:01 |
| DistroJockey | Shaba1, :) | 09:01 |
| joaopinto | MidnightHacker, yes, copy the cd contents to a filesystem. or create an iso image and mount it, or ask on #winehq | 09:01 |
| DistroJockey | Shaba1, sudo umount /dev/sda1 | 09:01 |
| DistroJockey | Shaba1, normally I would do sudo umount /mnt/WindowsCDrive instead of the /dev/sda1 though | 09:03 |
| DistroJockey | Shaba1, but in your case, I'm thinking that won't work with a /mnt/C:Drive | 09:03 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | help, how do i create an ntsf partition to install xp | 09:04 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | i previously had that but i erased the whole disk | 09:04 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | now i'm on xubuntu | 09:04 |
| joaopinto | CostaRicanQuaker, wrong channel, ask on ##windows | 09:04 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | yes i know,but how do i do it without just installing the boot cd | 09:04 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | is there a windows channel on this server? | 09:05 |
| joaopinto | again, if you need help installing windows, ask at ##windows | 09:05 |
| === Kyrin_ is now known as Kyrin | ||
| joaopinto | yes there is.. ##windows | 09:05 |
| ne2k__ | CostaRicanQuaker: fdisk is the partitioner | 09:05 |
| Shaba1 | ok that did it | 09:06 |
| arooni-mobile__ | what does it mean when the progress bar is going side to side instead of loading linearly ? | 09:06 |
| DistroJockey | Shaba1, :) | 09:06 |
| Shaba1 | Not exactly the way I wanted it to DistroJockey but good enough for now | 09:06 |
| joaopinto | arooni-mobile__, it does not mean anything specially, that is just a visual effect | 09:06 |
| chetan_ | hi PHP,Perl Linux programming $6 /hr , chetan at zeuscoder dot com | 09:07 |
| DistroJockey | Shaba1, that's a start :) | 09:07 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | how do you type the at? | 09:07 |
| arooni-mobile__ | joaopinto, uusally it goes linearly | 09:07 |
| Unislash | arooni-mobile_: i found out what i did with my livecd | 09:07 |
| joaopinto | chetan_, please stop spamming | 09:07 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | i went to character map and it doesn't show up | 09:07 |
| Keaton | My MP3 player uses MTP protocol to transfer data, but every time I try to import music through Rythembox it grinds to a halt and locks up. Is there a way I can mount my player as a storage device and just import music that way? | 09:07 |
| joaopinto | arooni-mobile__, not relaly. it all depends on the progress indicator implementation | 09:07 |
| mgolisch | $6 is that much? | 09:07 |
| Unislash | arooni-mobile_: i used a i386 architecture disk instead of the 64 bit that i was using before.... hopefully the 64 bit will load after i reinstall windows and ubuntu | 09:07 |
| joaopinto | Keaton, check your mp3 player documentation :) | 09:08 |

| timandtom | My resolution is stuck at 1440*900(When it's not busy spontaneously breaking and reverting to low graphics mode!) because Ubuntu isn't set up for the right video card. Is there some way to have it autodetect it? | 09:08 |
| crackhead | anyone really good with wireless questions????? | 09:08 |
| Keaton | joaopinto, here's hoping they've got that online somewhere. | 09:08 |
| crackhead | i have a very odd situation | 09:08 |
| alexei | Hello! Hi, why cannnot I log by SSH in by neither publick key authentification nor password in my newly installed Kubuntu box? Dont see no error messages in /var/log/messages. | 09:09 |
| DistroJockey | Shaba1, you will need to do those commands each time you reboot if you don't add an entry to /etc/fstab | 09:09 |
| crackhead | i have the restricted drivers installed, and they were working fine until shortly ago, when they all of a sudden stopped allowing my ubuntu to see that there is a wireless card installed... | 09:09 |
| josh__ | hi | 09:09 |
| josh__ | um | 09:09 |
| josh__ | does any one no what software is used to download music is called | 09:09 |
| Shaba1 | OH I most definatly want to DistroJockey | 09:10 |
| Varak_ | josh p2p filesharing? | 09:10 |
| timandtom | crackhead: Did you have 7.10 when it was working, and then switch to 8.04? :( 8.04 didn't work for me(At least not right away, so I switched back. Not worth the hassle for what I do) | 09:10 |
| Shaba1 | so just write those same command into /etc/fstab? | 09:10 |
| Varak_ | josh search for donkey | 09:10 |
| markkhu | hi | 09:10 |
| Varak_ | edonkey maybe | 09:10 |
| DistroJockey | Shaba1, I'm not fluent with it. Might wanna read up on adding an NTFS partition to /etc/fstab | 09:10 |
| josh__ | no | 09:11 |
| josh__ | ok | 09:11 |
| josh__ | cya | 09:11 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | is there a linux program that can partition free space within an ext3 partition into a new ntsf partition | 09:11 |
| DistroJockey | CostaRicanQuaker, gparted is your best bet | 09:12 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | DistroJockey: can you link me to it? | 09:12 |
| DistroJockey | CostaRicanQuaker, sudo apt-get install gparted | 09:12 |
| timandtom | Is there a way I can have Ubuntu 7.10 attempt to autodetect my video card so it can select the proper settings? It r broekeded :( | 09:13 |
| DistroJockey | CostaRicanQuaker, but you can't have free space in an ext3 btw | 09:13 |
| DistroJockey | CostaRicanQuaker, you can however shrink an ext3 to make unpartitioned space that you can use, as long as that ext3 is not mounted | 09:14 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | it looks like it already downloaded gparted | 09:14 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | what do i do now? | 09:14 |
| lymeca | Error running pipeline 'X Window System (X11/XShm/Xv)': Could not initialise Xv output [xvimagesink.c(1333): gst_xvimagesink_get_xv_support (): /pipeline9/xvimagesink7: No port available] | 09:14 |
| joaopinto | you run it ? | 09:14 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | how do i burn it onto a cd? or can i do it from xubuntu? | 09:15 |
| lars_bauer | vnc ? won't display a desktop ? howto get gnome-desktop | 09:15 |
| lymeca | Whats the deal with not being able to use xvimage sync??? | 09:15 |
| DistroJockey | CostaRicanQuaker, it should be listed in System - Administration | 09:15 |
| DistroJockey | CostaRicanQuaker, you can get it in Xubuntu | 09:15 |
| joaopinto | CostaRicanQuaker, if you are goint to shrink your / partition, you will need to use a live cd | 09:15 |
| spanther | lars_bauer: ubuntu-desktop :) | 09:15 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | let me tell you the whole story | 09:15 |
| spanther | lars_bauer: install the package ubuntu-desktop :) | 09:16 |
| crackhead | timandtom: i have and am using 7.10.. no update to 8.04.. just did a "fix header" in synaptic, and then it hasnt been working since.. | 09:16 |
| Paniked | hey | 09:17 |
| Paniked | when I do ifconfig; I get a list of uh | 09:17 |
| lars_bauer | spanther: maybe its gnome-desktop :-) | 09:17 |
| timandtom | crackhead, Oh, sorry, I dunno then :( | 09:17 |
| Paniked | eth0 / lo / wlan0 | 09:17 |
| Paniked | is wlan0 my wifi card? | 09:17 |
| DistroJockey | Paniked, yep | 09:17 |
| spanther | lars_bauer: gnome-desktop-environment ! :) | 09:17 |
| Paniked | whats the command | 09:17 |
| Paniked | dchlident | 09:17 |
| Paniked | dchlient wlan0 | 09:18 |
| Paniked | \? | 09:18 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | i was trying to install xubuntu from windows xp, i backed up my files the iso image that i used didn't work so instead i installed an old old ubuntu cd, then with someones help at the kubuntu chat i got xubuntu and got rid of gnome but to do this i had to erase the whole disk and thats fine as i had backed up but then i stuck the windows xp boot cd in and it onyl read one big prtititon without it being devided into ext3 or anything and it only | 09:18 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | offered the option of installing windows on it, so what i want to do is take part of the space where xubuntu is on right now, the free area and make free space for an ntsf partition | 09:18 |
| arooni-mobile__ | im trying to move all data from an old hard drive to a new hard drive. i copied all partitions using cp -ax ... and to test whether i did it right i booted up without using the replacement hard drive.... it sorta booted but i got stuck with busyboxy (ash) with the prompt (initramfs) or something.... whad i do wrong? (ive already tried running sudo update-initramfs -u -v; see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=7766 | 09:18 |
| arooni-mobile__ | 93) | 09:18 |
| spanther | lars_bauer: first gnome-desktop-environment and then for ubuntu feeling ubuntu-desktop :) | 09:18 |
| Paniked | dhclient wlan0 ? | 09:18 |
| lars_bauer | spanther: what should i write in the xstartup file in .vnc | 09:18 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | DistroJockey: cna i do that from xubuntu with gparted? | 09:18 |
| spanther | lars_bauer: vnc? never used vnc o.o | 09:18 |
| lucypher | Hi, my FF-3.0 is always starting in fullscreen mode... I haven't used fullscreen mode before.... | 09:18 |
| DistroJockey | CostaRicanQuaker, not sure that the Xubuntu live CD has gparted ot not. But you could get a copy of Partedmagic CD and use it | 09:19 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | no i mean | 09:20 |
| amrik | lucypher: when you start firefox you can exit fullscreen with f11 | 09:20 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | you just told me how to download gparted | 09:20 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | i did | 09:20 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | i got gparted | 09:20 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | if i run it on here xubuntu that is | 09:20 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | will it be able to create free space | 09:20 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | for me to use it to have windows' ntsf partition | 09:20 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | on it | 09:20 |
| DistroJockey | CostaRicanQuaker, no, you need to not be using the system partition you wish to shrink | 09:20 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | so, how do i burn it into a cd? | 09:21 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | i remember i once did that, burning an image of gparted onto a cdr | 09:21 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | but i don't know how to do it on ubuntu/xubuntu | 09:21 |
| DistroJockey | CostaRicanQuaker, better to get http://partedmagic.com/wiki/PartedMagic.php | 09:21 |
| Paniked | whats a good ftpd that can run along with ssh; ;like on my shells I can use the same login as my ssh | 09:21 |
| Paniked | like a shell from any provider | 09:21 |
| lucypher | amrik: I know... but why does FF starts in fulscreen mode? | 09:21 |
| KenSentMe | I used the 'Connect to server' option to connect to a ftp server. I might have entered the wrong password and opted to save it in the keyring. I can't log in to the server through Nautilus because i dont get a chance to enter a new password. How can i remove the saved password for this server from the keyring? | 09:21 |
| Paniked | so what ftpd can i use to co-exist with ssh | 09:21 |
| Paniked | heh | 09:21 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | DistroJockey: i have no money | 09:22 |
| DistroJockey | CostaRicanQuaker, it's free | 09:22 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | http://partedmagic.com/wiki/PartedMagic.php?n=PartedMagic.Downloads | 09:22 |
| spanther | lucypher: why not going to the firefox channel and asking there? so they will know about this bug and they know it better maybe ^^ | 09:22 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | on this page which do i click on? | 09:22 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | the bottom one? linux? | 09:22 |
| Kartagis | lucypher: hit F11 to restore the size, then close and restart | 09:22 |
| amrik | lucypher: oh it always starts in full-screen mode? | 09:22 |

| DistroJockey | oops | 09:23 |
| alexei | Hi, anybody has an idea how to make SSHD accept also the network accounts from NIS. I can log in as a local user (when listed in /etc/passwd) but not as a NIS-user? | 09:23 |
| amrik | lucypher: that script is a hack that automatically will pretend to press f11 for you | 09:23 |
| DistroJockey | CostaRicanQuaker, yep :) | 09:23 |
| amrik | lucypher: obviously not what you want to be doing but its a start | 09:24 |
| unop | potf, why do you want to change it? maybe there is an easier way to solve your problem | 09:24 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | ok saving | 09:24 |
| DistroJockey | CostaRicanQuaker, burn and boot that, and you will be able to change all partitions on your hard drive | 09:24 |
| The-Seiman | Hello all | 09:25 |
| potf | unop, I want to install half life 2, but it requires to be started from c drive, I do'nt have enough free room at /home | 09:25 |
| amrik | alexei: NIS isn't particularly secure, you might want to consider LDAP | 09:25 |
| The-Seiman | Is that normal if I can't play more than one sound at the same time ? | 09:26 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | DistroJockey: how do i get rid of gparted then? | 09:26 |
| rgie | hi guys, where can i get my certificate on firefox? I signed up on comodo but haven't seen my certificate that they issued, im i on the right cahannel? | 09:26 |
| raj_ | what should i do for this Error while compiling c program .. stdio.h: No such file or directory | 09:26 |
| DistroJockey | CostaRicanQuaker, don't bother, it may be handy later and is only small | 09:26 |
| amrik | raj_: install build-essential | 09:26 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | ok | 09:26 |
| raj_ | sorry i dint get u | 09:26 |
| unop | potf, exit all wine using applications .. then copy your ~/.wine directory to another partition that has free space then mount it in your home directory with sudo mount --bind /path/to/wine_directory ~/.wine/ | 09:26 |
| Lenaud01 | if I needed search bunch files for phrase is that grep or how would i do that? | 09:26 |

| FuRom | How do I make totem player, play a real media file? It doesn't pull up a codec list or anything. It just flat out, doesn't play. | 09:27 |
| CostaRicanQuaker | and i also can't seem to be able to type the at sign or the number sign not even going to the character map do i find htem | 09:27 |
| alexei | amrik: that setup has been for years, I have to adapt myself. | 09:27 |
| Ziroday | FuRom: you can try vlc or one minute whilst I find the other way | 09:27 |
| unop | Lenaud01, grep -r phrase /path/to/directory/* | 09:28 |
| DistroJockey | CostaRicanQuaker, no idea here sorry don't use Xfce. Better to go and ask in #xubuntu (if more people did, then there would be more help there :) ) | 09:28 |
| Lenaud01 | thanks unop | 09:28 |
| Lenaud01 | -r was what i was missing | 09:28 |
| Ziroday | FuRom: or install the gstreamer packages | 09:28 |
| unop | Lenaud01, you also might want the case insensitive search -i | 09:29 |
| FuRom | Ziroday, aiight, thanks | 09:29 |
| spanther | i am using "Me TV" actually (DVB-T Viewer for Gnome / gtk) and it runs very well all these hours i try it now :) | 09:29 |

| DistroJockey | CostaRicanQuaker, I guess I'll install it and play, then I will join #xubuntu ;) | 09:29 |
| spanther | !ask | The-Seiman | 09:29 |

| KenSentMe | I used the 'Connect to server' option to connect to a ftp server. I might have entered the wrong password and opted to save it in the keyring. I can't log in to the server through Nautilus because i dont get a chance to enter a new password. How can i remove the saved password for this server from the keyring? | 09:31 |
| arooni-mobile__ | i am going to replace my only hard drive with an identical hard drive (same size & all)... i have tried dd the firs ttime (it failed because i used a different sized partition, and ended up losing me a bunch of space). i used cp -ax from command line second time (which failed to boot).... what should i do now? | 09:31 |
| amrik | KenSentMe: check applications -> accessories -> password and encryption keys | 09:31 |
| The-Seiman | Well, actually, using the ALSA drivers, I can only play one sound, other apps can't, so I wan't to know how to play more sounds at the same time . | 09:31 |

| KenSentMe | amrik, i can't delete individual passwords there, can i? | 09:31 |

| amrik | KenSentMe: go to the tab under passwords | 09:32 |
| KenSentMe | amrik, sorry, it seems i can, thanks! | 09:32 |
| amrik | Hi. so you know how in nautilus you can partially type say a directory name in a directory full of lots of items and it will skip ahead to that item? for some reason that has stopped working for me | 09:32 |
| The-Seiman | spanther: I have also ubuntu 8.04, but I think the problem comes from my self compiled kernel and the alsa drivers from the git repository | 09:32 |
| spanther | The-Seiman: do you really need a self compiled kernel and git alsa drivers ? | 09:33 |
| spanther | The-Seiman: if not i would really advice you to use the original standards :) | 09:33 |
| === zwox__ is now known as zwox_ | ||

| amrik | The-Seiman: do you have the hardware mixing set up with alsa? or are you trying to use pulseaudio to mix? | 09:34 |
| The-Seiman | spanther: can I reinstall the ALSA ubuntu packages to overwrite my self compiled one ? | 09:34 |
| arooni-mobile__ | does gparted understand if you're copying a smaller partition to a larger one? | 09:34 |
| heanol | i'm trying to transfer my system to an encrypted root (had some problems when trying to do it at install time), but i cannot get the system to ask me for the passphrase when booting | 09:34 |
| The-Seiman | amrik: I don't know, and I am not using pulseaudio | 09:34 |
| spanther | The-Seiman: well you have to go into that alsa compiled folder first and write "make uninstall" with sudo and after that you can install ubuntu's original again :) | 09:34 |
| heanol | it just stops when i'd expect it to ask me for it | 09:34 |
| heanol | what could i have done wrong? | 09:34 |
| plouffe | What's the correct package for virtualbox to run windows from linux? virt-manager or virtualbox-ose? | 09:34 |
| DistroJockey | amrik, never seen that before :( Tis a handy feature. No idea what might have caused it to stop? | 09:34 |
| The-Seiman | spanther: Okay thanks | 09:35 |
| amrik | DistroJockey: well the only thing I can think of is im running 2.6.25.9 kernel | 09:35 |
| amrik | DistroJockey: also i am using SCIM for japanese input which tends to cause problems with some other programs like wine | 09:35 |
| soundray | heanol: perhaps the password request appears on a console other than the one that you look at | 09:35 |
| spanther | The-Seiman: but since you use the long time supported 8.04 i really would advice you to use the standard ones to get the best compatibilities with all packages included :) | 09:35 |
| The-Seiman | spanther: Okay, but the problem doesn't come from the kernel, na ? | 09:36 |
| spanther | The-Seiman: otherwise later patches could "maybe" make more problems too cause they cant work with your own alsa or kernel config | 09:36 |
| DistroJockey | amrik, ohh, I have no idea what issues they may introduce but it does sound possible that they are the cause | 09:36 |
| spanther | The-Seiman: well then just get the ubuntu alsa back but uninstall your compiled first you need to go into this directory from where you compiled and installed alsa and then use commands i gave you :) | 09:36 |
| BuFF | need help on installing gnubox on N70 via cable | 09:37 |
| BuFF | any ideas ? | 09:37 |
| Paniked | hello; everytime I seem to try and create a file on a samba shared drive; i get a smb permission denied; even while checking the "allow users to write option in ubuntu" | 09:37 |
| The-Seiman | spanther: okay, thanks | 09:37 |
| soundray | BuFF: gnubox? N70? Are you sure you've come to the right channel? | 09:38 |
| spanther | The-Seiman: the ubuntu team trys to get best compatibility with all things inside the repos (sure you can still use self compiled applications if dependencys work) but things like alsa well...i ever would advice you to use the ubuntus ones for drivers and so on | 09:38 |
| BuFF | soundray: tell me the right one pls | 09:38 |
| soundray | BuFF: I would if I knew | 09:38 |
| amrik | The-Seiman: alsa-git can be a bit unstable. i recommend 1.0.17rc1 | 09:38 |
| DistroJockey | Paniked, I may not be much help here but, are you authenticating to the share with ldap or a local account? | 09:39 |
| Paniked | huh? it asks for my login and i use the login that I login to my computer with... wow alot of logins! | 09:39 |
| DistroJockey | Paniked, you would need to use an account that the system with the SAMBA share knows about | 09:40 |
| spanther | amrik: but theres a good sentence "never touch a running system" so as long the ubuntu's alsa runs fine without issues he doesnt need any other and so for support later he has standard ubuntu software and not own so its easier to support him :) | 09:40 |
| amrik | spanther: if hes like me he has his reasons for running the latest kernel and alsa, namely for sound support | 09:41 |

| soundray | pookey: perhaps try #kubuntu as well | 09:48 |
| pookey | soundray: thanks :) | 09:48 |
| The-Seiman | spanther: yes, but as I've build a custom kernel, I had to rebuild also the alsa drivers from the git because the ubuntu ones don't work with the custom kernel | 09:48 |

| Turgon | Hello. I use Ubuntu 8.04 amd64. One of the servers listed in the Software Origins window is quite out of date. I selected it as my download server using the "select best server" feature. When, trying to solve a few problems, after having tried out anything else I could think of, I switched back to the main server... 216 recommended updates appeared! My problems were gone after updating. I have already tried contacting the server's admins, but their w | 09:56 |

| gordonjcp | is there a way to completely remove pulseaudio? | 09:59 |
| spanther | gordonjcp: sadly no as PulseAudio is integrated to much into ubuntu for different things ^^" | 10:01 |
| spanther | you could damage some things maybe i've heard | 10:01 |
| gordonjcp | spanther: oh ok | 10:01 |
| gordonjcp | so basically, that's it - I can't use Ubuntu any more | 10:01 |

| it-linux | ozkelligirl:what can I do? | 10:49 |
| joaopinto | christine_, configure should not be run with sudo | 10:49 |
| joaopinto | and you need: sudo apt-get install build-essential | 10:50 |
| christine_ | configure without sudo just returns permission denied | 10:50 |
| joaopinto | christine_, that is because configure is not set to executable | 10:50 |
| joaopinto | or it is owned by root, when it should now | 10:50 |
| joaopinto | not | 10:50 |
| it-linux | ozkelligirl:hello? | 10:51 |
| christine_ | ah - ok. so I download that package, chmod configure to executable and then go from there? | 10:51 |
| joaopinto | christine_, sudo chown -R christine:christine ~/mt-daapd-0.2.4.2 | 10:52 |
| christine_ | brilliant - ./configure seems to be working now. Thanks a million! | 10:53 |
| joaopinto | you will need sudo only for the make install part, which installs the software | 10:54 |
| christine_ | is compiling from source the only option with firefly? | 10:55 |
| vdsy_ | just a quick question...using GParted...i wanna remove a different linux partition, which is as the end of the hard drive, and resize the ubuntu partition to the end of the hard disk...is this possible? | 10:55 |

| flabr | hi there..i am on Ubuntu live CD ... i wonder what is the command in terminal mode in order to check which USB is running on 2.0 ? | 11:54 |
| Anarhist | soundray, python2.5-dev: Depends: python2.5 (= 2.5.2-2ubuntu4) but 2.5.2-2ubuntu5 is to be installed | 11:54 |
| flabr | or is there a GUI for that? | 11:54 |
| andycan | soundray: f11 went in fullscreen, but then i returned into normal mode it fit back between gnome panels. I guess it was some compiz error | 11:55 |
| soundray | Anarhist: it could be a temporary packaging bug. Are you using the main repository or a mirror? | 11:55 |
| flabr | lsusb does not tell me which ver of USB is | 11:55 |
| bazhang | flabr, what about lshw | 11:55 |
| Anarhist | soundray, i've not changed my repos since installing ubuntu, so i assume i am using main repo | 11:55 |

| HZ | hey how is life everyone, look I have a U3 USB stick and I can't mount it. can anybody help me? | 11:56 |
| soundray | Anarhist: that's not a safe assumption -- the default setting is picked based on your location. Check with System-Administration-Software Sources and switch to main server if it's not set already. Then try again. | 11:56 |
| flabr | koshari, the reason for my question is that i have Suse 11 and doing lsusb there i just see 1.1 USB ... i then booted into Ubuntu Live and a device dvbt i cannot list lsusb with Suse 11 ... i can with ubuntu | 11:57 |

| soundray | flabr: run 'lshw | grep -i ehci'. If you get a line saying 'ehci bus master', then you have 2.0 | 11:58 |
| koshari | flabr: hmm i would suspect they would be the same kernel version as well? | 11:58 |
| HZ | any inf abt U3 USB on linux and how to mount it? | 11:58 |
| Anarhist | soundray, ok, it was set to UK, i changed to main server by the problem is *still there* i can't instally python-dev | 11:58 |
| flabr | koshari: suse 11 runs latest kernel while this ubuntu live cd has 2.6.24 | 11:59 |
| flabr | suse has 2.6.25 | 11:59 |
| flabr | what is the root password for this live ubuntu cd_ | 12:00 |
| soundray | Anarhist: please consider reporting a bug on launchpad. To work around this problem, find the python2.5-dev file in your /var/cache/apt/archives and run 'sudo dpkg -i --force-depends python2.5-dev_*.deb' | 12:00 |
| soundray | Anarhist: substituting the actual file name | 12:01 |

| magnetron | slicky, receiving UDP packets over a SOCKS proxy is impossible. | 12:27 |

| ClawEEE | hello guys | 13:02 |
| Bodsda | hey | 13:02 |
| Karny | hi all | 13:02 |
| Bodsda | hi | 13:02 |
| Stavroulis | hallo ;) | 13:02 |
| Bodsda | welcome | 13:03 |
| Karny | I'm trying to setup and headless server, but I'm running into some connectivity issues. can anyone suggest what might be the problem? | 13:03 |
| Tyreus | !backup is that a command or a prog? | 13:03 |
| jameslr | slicky: if you already have a tunnel set up then client and server will both be localhost/tcp | 13:03 |
| Karny | I seem to be able to access the default apache document "it's works", but not other things on the box, like phpmyadmin or webmin | 13:03 |
| Bodsda | Karny, server connectivity probs of internet probs in general? | 13:03 |
| slicky | jameslr, how do you mean? | 13:04 |
| Karny | Bodsda: not internet really... local clinets accessing things like mysql or webmin | 13:04 |
| Tyreus | !backup is that a command or a prog? | 13:04 |
| Karny | even ftp seems weird | 13:04 |
| lenix_ | this might sound a bit noobish, but I'm trying to paste some files to /usr/share/icons, but the Paste option is greyed out.. how can I do it ? | 13:04 |
| jameslr | slicky: udptunnel -c 127.0.0.1/9999 127.0.0.1/udpport | 13:04 |
| legend2440 | Tyreus: that is a factoid to give info on how to backups. click on the links to read about how to backup | 13:05 |
| Bodsda | Karny, sorry, im not familliar with servers | 13:05 |
| Karny | lenix_: you probably don;t have write permissions on that folder | 13:05 |
| Tyreus | sbackup | 13:05 |
| Karny | ok, thanks Bodsda | 13:05 |
| lenix_ | Karny, isn't there a way to make the user i use have permissions on all folders? | 13:05 |
| Bodsda | lenix_, command line would be easier or install nautilus-sudo its because you do not have permission to modify that file/folder | 13:05 |
| Bodsda | lenix_, yes there is but its a bad idea | 13:05 |
| Bodsda | !sudo | lenix_ | 13:06 |
| ubottu | lenix_: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome), or !kdesu (KDE) | 13:06 |
| legend2440 | Tyreus: sbackup is name of a software package you can install | 13:06 |
| lenix_ | why would it be a bad idea if i'm the only one that use the computer? | 13:06 |
| Bodsda | !root | 13:06 |
| ubottu | Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo | 13:06 |
| lenix_ | Bodsda, and ya i know about SU | 13:06 |
| Bodsda | lenix_, SU is different from sudo | 13:06 |
| lenix_ | i already know my root pass | 13:06 |
| lenix_ | hmm | 13:06 |
| legend2440 | Tyreus: sbackup is in synaptic | 13:06 |
| Bodsda | lenix_, really, i doubt it | 13:06 |
| jameslr | lenix_: it's not necessarily a BAD idea. Just poor practice. | 13:06 |
| RCP | sudo su :P | 13:07 |
| jameslr | lenix_: you won't always have root access to a system you should learn how to use a system without it. | 13:07 |
| Tyreus | Thx | 13:07 |
| slicky | jameslr, and on the server? | 13:07 |
| evgeny | hi | 13:07 |
| lenix_ | jameslr, so it's all about bad practice then :P but I got no problem with it, I can do it over terminal | 13:07 |
| jameslr | slicky: leave it the same. the tcp port doesn't require a host on the server part of udptunnel | 13:07 |
| lenix_ | i guess.. | 13:07 |
| Karny | so, can anyone help me with my issue? | 13:07 |
| slicky | jameslr, okey | 13:07 |
| Karny | I'm not sure why some things are working, whilst others are? | 13:08 |
| jameslr | lenix_: There are inherent security risks to running as the root user, but that's on you. | 13:08 |
| Bodsda | lenix_, you need privileges to achieve this copy, for that you use sudo | 13:08 |

| JGJones | Greetings | 13:08 |
| jameslr | slicky: ahh yes that's because the tunnel is using the port. | 13:08 |
| JGJones | Have anyone installed the Ibex alpha 1 onto VMware? | 13:08 |
| jameslr | slicky: can't do the tunnel through a tunnel then | 13:08 |
| Bodsda | JGJones, no, but i have it on my system | 13:08 |
| slicky | jameslr, and i cant see the udp connection in nmap | 13:09 |
| lenix_ | Bodsda, what is the sudo command to move stuff around? | 13:09 |
| Bodsda | lenix_, prefix your command with sudo -- sudo cp /path/to/something/something /path/to/where/you/want/a/acopy/something | 13:09 |
| JGJones | Bodsda - no spare machine...hence vmware however ibex does not work - get up to login, enter username/password and then it freeze. | 13:09 |
| evgeny | does anyone know if there is some open source stuff like AutoCAD? | 13:09 |
| Dr_willis | evgeny, there are a few GPl Cad programs out. | 13:10 |
| jameslr | evgeny: blender might be what you're looking for | 13:10 |
| Bodsda | JGJones, hhmm, not sure there, any error? maybe consult #ubuntu+1 | 13:10 |
| Dr_willis | evgeny, not sure of your needs. but qcad is handy. | 13:10 |
| evgeny | tnx | 13:10 |
| Dr_willis | blender and autocad - are sort of different. :) but i guess it depends on your needs. | 13:10 |
| JGJones | Bodsda - thanks, have joined channel. | 13:10 |
| Bodsda | JGJones, cool | 13:11 |
| evgeny | my needs are the simpliest | 13:11 |
| lenix_ | Bodsda, thanks, but I want to ask something, is there any difference between sudo cp and sudo mv ? | 13:11 |
| lenix_ | or is it copy / move ? | 13:11 |
| KrimZon | how do you change the login prompt sound - the one that's played before you actually log in? | 13:12 |
| jameslr | lenix_: cp copies, move moves (read delete the source) | 13:12 |
| Bodsda | lenix_, yes, cp makes a copy and mv moves the original file | 13:12 |
| lenix_ | alright cool, thanks a lot guys <3 | 13:12 |
| lenix_ | ubuntu ftw :P | 13:12 |

| Comet_Rider | i got a simple question...i am downloading a ubuntu live cd. All I have are blank DVD's. Will DVD's work in place of a baln CD? | 13:33 |
| ge | soundray: samsung x20 | 13:33 |
| Bodsda | molgrum, there probably not yet in the kernel | 13:33 |
| Comet_Rider | umm a ubunut .iso file i meant | 13:33 |
| soundray | !intrepid | molgrum | 13:33 |
| ubottu | molgrum: Alpha Software: Intrepid Ibex is the code name for Ubuntu 8.10, due October 2008 - #ubuntu+1 for discussion | Warning lots of breaking software between now and October! | 13:33 |
| Bodsda | Comet_Rider, i think possibly yes it would work, although ive heard of issues, why not download the dvd iso? | 13:34 |
| nonix4 | danbhfive: only hardy-securit and hardy-updates enabled | 13:34 |
| danbhfive | nonix4: yeah, i dont know, sorry | 13:34 |
| Comet_Rider | umm a ubunut .iso file i meanti couldnt find it, if i had of seen a DVD .iso i would have | 13:34 |
| Bodsda | Comet_Rider, you after 8.04 Hardy yeah? | 13:34 |
| soundray | ge: does your bluetooth hardware show up when you enter 'lsusb'? | 13:35 |
| Bodsda | Comet_Rider, http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/hardy/release/ | 13:35 |
| Comet_Rider | yea i'm downloading the desktop version for 8.04 now | 13:35 |
| lordrommel | hello | 13:35 |
| Bodsda | soundray, may be lspci if its built in his lappy | 13:35 |
| === lordrommel is now known as kaliMastah | ||
| _Brun0_ | gordonjcp, yea my laptop drive is not owrking. how can i disable it? | 13:35 |
| Bodsda | Comet_Rider, youll find a desktop dvd iso on that link | 13:35 |
| Comet_Rider | ty | 13:35 |
| Bodsda | Comet_Rider, your welcome | 13:36 |
| m1r | hello | 13:36 |
| soundray | Bodsda: I know, but we'll take it one step at a time, considering that lspci output takes much longer to parse | 13:36 |
| lenix_ | should this work fine in fstab /server/lenix (e) /media/LENiX ntfs username=lenix,password=****** 0 0 | 13:36 |
| lenix_ | ? | 13:36 |
| Bodsda | soundray, instantaneous on my system, or do you mean wading through the data? | 13:36 |
| gordonjcp | _Brun0_: disable in the BIOS? | 13:37 |
| jameslr | lenix_: not unless the drive is directly attached | 13:37 |
| Comet_Rider | if only my AT&T aircard supported *nix i could dump vista | 13:37 |
| ge | soundray: i dont think so. it shows a bunch of iles like these: | 13:37 |
| ge | Bus 005 Device 001: ID 0000:0000 | 13:37 |
| lenix_ | i already created /media/LENiX to be my mount point | 13:37 |
| _Brun0_ | gordonjcp, yea! iĺl definatelly try that. thank you! | 13:37 |
| ge | so maybe i should get an usb-bluetooth-stick? | 13:37 |
| Bodsda | soundray, i think you may need pastebinit on this one ;~) | 13:37 |
| Frogzoo | lenix_: what's (e)? and I don't see a device | 13:37 |
| jameslr | lenix_: it should look something like: //server/lenix /media/LENiX smbfs username-lenix,password=***** 0 0 | 13:38 |
| lenix_ | the sharename is "lenix (e)" | 13:38 |
| soundray | ge: either that, or your integrated bluetooth hardware may be connected to the PCI bus, in which case it will show up in the output of lspci | 13:38 |
| soundray | !pastebin | ge, pastebin lsusb and lspci output if you want me to have a look | 13:38 |
| ubottu | ge, pastebin lsusb and lspci output if you want me to have a look: 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) | 13:38 |
| lenix_ | jameslr, what if the sharename has a space in it, its called lenix (e) | 13:39 |
| jameslr | lenix_: I'd create file called /etc/samba/creds and chmod it 700. Put your username and password in that file and specify credentials=/etc/samba/creds as well as your other options | 13:39 |
| lenix_ | quotations works? | 13:39 |
| Comet_Rider | any idea what i have in my mirc config that would make freenode block me from connecting here? | 13:39 |
| jameslr | lenix_: you have to escape the space, but I'd just remove the space out of the share name. | 13:39 |
| `Ampher | Comet_Rider: just use Pidgin :) | 13:40 |
| jameslr | lenix_: what's the point of beatifying a share name anyway? | 13:40 |
| Bodsda | Comet_Rider, how can it be blocking you from connecting if we can see your posts? | 13:40 |
| ge | soundray, ubottu: `lspci | grep blue` does not show anything. So I guess this notebook has no bluetooth. I will get an usb-bluetooth-thingy then. | 13:40 |
| Bodsda | `Ampher, thats not really a solution | 13:40 |
| Comet_Rider | i am using mibbit now, a web proxy basically | 13:40 |
| soundray | ge: grep is case sensitive. Retry with grep -i | 13:40 |
| lenix_ | it's not my pc, it's my room mates pc :P and he had the share names setup like that, maybe i'll ask him to remove the space -,- | 13:40 |
| `Ampher | Bodsda: Maybe, but it is much better then mirc, right? ;) | 13:40 |
| Comet_Rider | nope not even close | 13:40 |
| jameslr | lenix_: try it by escaping the space and putting a \ before it | 13:40 |
| Bodsda | `Ampher, its relative to the user | 13:40 |
| ge | soundray: nothing either. | 13:41 |
| soundray | lenix_: man fstab has a hint on how to put spaces in share names | 13:41 |
| offline_ | hi anyone please tell me the differences between ubuntu and kubuntu ? | 13:41 |
| `Ampher | I'll tell you something, I don't even use the linux right now... so ;P And yeah, about his question.. whats better, Kubuntu or Ubuntu? | 13:41 |
| Bodsda | ge, try looking with your eyes, see anything related? how do you know you have an internel bluetooth device? | 13:41 |
| lenix_ | jameslr, will do.. although what about the smbfs type , should i put it smbfs or just ntfs ? ( the share type is ntfs ) :P | 13:41 |
| IdleOne | ubuntu use gnome and kubuntu use KDE | 13:42 |
| soundray | ge: the X20 comes in lots of versions. It's possible that yours doesn't have Bluetooth and you need a dongle. | 13:42 |
| `Ampher | Yeah, I know that | 13:42 |
| `Ampher | but, whats better | 13:42 |
| `Ampher | Faster, easier | 13:42 |
| ge | Bodsda, soundray: googling for the X20 shows, that there are many versions. I have "NP-X20 I". Maybe this one has no bluetooth. There are sites saying that the SE-Series has bluetooth. | 13:42 |
| Bodsda | `Ampher, neither, they are both relative to the users needs/wants you cant say ones better then the other | 13:42 |
| jameslr | lenix_: ntfs is for direct attached storage. If you're accessing the filesystem directly through your drive controllers | 13:42 |
| SHYMAN | hi folks | 13:42 |
| `Ampher | k. | 13:42 |
| jameslr | lenix_: you want to use smbfs because you're mounting the drive as a samba share | 13:42 |
| soundray | ge: I bought a nice one the other day, just fingernail-size and round | 13:42 |
| lenix_ | jameslr, got you, thanks! | 13:42 |
| `Ampher | What are you using ? KDE or GNOME | 13:42 |
| Bodsda | `Ampher, not the place -- #ubuntu-offtopic please | 13:43 |
| SHYMAN | hi ozkelli | 13:43 |
| ge | soundray, Bodsda: thank you very much for your help. will switch to another computer now and have to turn off irc. | 13:43 |
| offline_ | yeah.. which one is easier, faster, and better support and driver availability and compability | 13:43 |
| Bodsda | ge, ok, cya | 13:43 |
| Bodsda | offline_, which one what? | 13:43 |
| IdleOne | offline_, both neither depends what you prefer and need | 13:43 |
| offline_ | bodsda: i mean between ubuntu and kubuntu | 13:44 |
| Bodsda | offline_, oh, sorry missed your question, try them both see which one YOU prefer, no onecan tell you which is better | 13:44 |
| Comet_Rider | wow going from a cd iso to a dvd iso changed my download from 600 mb to 3.7 GB... thats too much for my wireless isp connection :( | 13:44 |
| offline_ | idleone & bodsda : thx.. i'm using ubuntu and will try kubuntu :) | 13:44 |
| Bodsda | Comet_Rider, ah, yes its a bigger file but there is a load more apps on the dvd | 13:45 |
| Bodsda | offline_, try KDE, you dont need to download and install a kubuntu iso | 13:45 |
| Comet_Rider | hopefully i dont lose my aircard signal lol | 13:45 |
| Bodsda | Comet_Rider, yeah ;~) | 13:45 |
| offline_ | bodsda: im totally new with linux, so i dont know what is gnome and kde is, i tought if i want to try kubuntu so i have to download the iso... but download the kde ??? | 13:47 |
| kaliMastah | ello anyone here uses gnokii? | 13:47 |
| Bodsda | offline_, ok, you have buntu. Ubuntu is buntu with gnome, Kubuntu is buntu with KDE, think of it that way | 13:47 |
| Comet_Rider | since AT&T doesn't supply drivers for my Operon GT Max aircard, how i connect to the internet, what are the odds someone else has made drivers or whatever they are called in ubuntu to work for my aircard? | 13:47 |
| Comet_Rider | Option* | 13:48 |
| tristanaa | test | 13:48 |
| IdleOne | !gnome | 13:48 |
| ubottu | gnome is a project that provides two things: The GNOME desktop environment, an intuitive and attractive desktop for end-users, users, and the GNOME development platform, an extensive framework for building applications that integrate into the rest of the desktop. | 13:48 |
| offline_ | bodsda: ok i'll try to think that way as you tell me.. im googling now to find kde and gnome description. Thx | 13:48 |
| Bodsda | tristanaa, test succeeded | 13:48 |
| tristanaa | fine :) | 13:49 |
| Bodsda | offline_, have fun | 13:49 |
| ozkelligirl | hi all | 13:49 |

| BellA | hi | 13:50 |
| BellA | i dunno why i here | 13:50 |
| Comet_Rider | lol | 13:50 |
| lenix_ | brb | 13:51 |
| jameslr | lenix_: just do mount -a | 13:51 |
| dfgas | lenix_, if any changes were made to fstab the easiest way to have them take effect is to reboot | 13:51 |
| dfgas | or nm, heh | 13:51 |
| jameslr | lenix_: sorry sudo mount -a | 13:51 |
| Bodsda | rebooting takes 20 seconds, | 13:51 |
| Bodsda | max | 13:51 |
| woozzy | can anyone help me?? | 13:51 |
| Bodsda | !ask | woozzy | 13:51 |
| ubottu | woozzy: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 13:51 |

| ThreeFingerPete_ | ubuntu 8.04 - I changed my xorg.conf to add proper resolutions in. I restart X and they just dont appear! google is no help so far! what am I doing wrong? | 13:53 |
| lenix_ | it's not working, [mntent]: line 8 in /etc/fstab is bad | 13:53 |
| aschwalje | i finally took the plunge, installed dual boot with existing xp on my hp dv6226 laptop. Need help with the hibernate and suspend. Neither work. | 13:54 |
| jameslr | That's odd I get 5000 results | 13:54 |
| lenix_ | this is line 8 | 13:54 |
| lenix_ | /server/lenix\ (e) /media/LENiX smbfs username=lenix,password=**** 0 0 | 13:54 |
| woozzy | yah but nothing that relates to floppy just mostly cds | 13:54 |
| jameslr | lenix_: you need to escape the parentheses too with \. So it will look like //server/lenix\ \(e\) | 13:55 |
| jameslr | lenix_: ask him to remove the space and parentheses. | 13:55 |
| Bodsda | jameslr, ugly!! ;~) | 13:55 |
| jameslr | lenix_: you also need two slashes before teh server | 13:55 |
| jameslr | the* | 13:55 |
| aschwalje | any help would be greatly appreciated | 13:56 |
| aschwalje | i am on 8.04 | 13:56 |

| lenix_ | //server/lenix\ \(e\) /media/LENiX smbfs username=lenix,password=xxx 0 0 | 13:58 |
| jameslr | lenix_: are you an adiministrator on the share? | 13:58 |
| lenix_ | i have read writes only | 13:58 |
| lenix_ | rights* | 13:58 |
| lenix_ | ;/ | 13:58 |
| jameslr | lenix_: I would use the creds file like I mentioned. not secure to put a password in a world readable file | 13:58 |
| lenix_ | I can do that after I get this to work, or using a creds file will make it work? | 13:59 |
| jameslr | lenix_: possibly. I've never passed username and password as options in fstab | 13:59 |
| jameslr | lenix_: use credentials=/etc/samba/creds | 13:59 |
| jameslr | lenix_: touch /etc/samba/creds | 13:59 |
| jameslr | lenix_: chmod 0700 /etc/samba/creds | 13:59 |
| jameslr | lenix_: then put a username username and password password | 14:00 |
| jameslr | in the file | 14:00 |
| jameslr | username and password are on separate lines | 14:00 |
| aschwalje | okay, i know my problem is a common one | 14:02 |
| aschwalje | but i don't know whether to use uswsusp or what | 14:03 |
| Slart | aschwalje: the problem is common.. the solution isn't | 14:03 |
| lenix_ | jameslr, username=user password=pass , seperate lines each | 14:03 |
| lenix_ | like that? | 14:03 |
| lenix_ | in the /etc/samba/creds | 14:03 |
| aschwalje | Slart, any suggestions? | 14:04 |
| Slart | aschwalje: I don't even know if hibernate works on my laptop... just haven't bothered with it | 14:04 |
| jameslr | lenix_: no = just username username | 14:04 |
| jameslr | lenix_: yes separate lines | 14:04 |

| Bodsda | TGD, yes, ethernet works fine but is not practical to drape a wire all the way around the house | 14:21 |
| sharperguy | should my ~/.pulse/default.pa file be blank? | 14:21 |
| TGD | Bodsda: I suspect your drivers or wireless card are messed up | 14:21 |
| Bodsda | TGD, ive used the native drivers and tried the windows drivers via ndiswrapper to no avail | 14:22 |
| lenix_ | just a question, when i do sudo mount -a , it asks me for a password, is that the pass for my ubuntu user or the shares ? | 14:22 |
| Bodsda | user | 14:22 |
| lenix_ | i think it worked by putting the password for the shares | 14:22 |
| TGD | Wireless card then | 14:22 |
| Bodsda | TGD, classic but 'works fine on windows' | 14:22 |
| TGD | Windows has CPU control for wireless ubuntu cant | 14:22 |
| Bodsda | TGD, ubuntu can control cpu i believe | 14:23 |
| TGD | But before you shell out money try re-installing ubuntu (ubuntu can control CPU but not like windows) | 14:23 |

| Bodsda | TGD, ive reinstalled hardy plenty of times same prob even exists on live cd | 14:23 |
| TGD | Wireless card then | 14:24 |
| Bodsda | TGD, are you saying ubuntu 'cant' fix this? | 14:24 |
| TGD | Im saying either stick with windows (i wouldnt) or try a new wireless card | 14:24 |
| OB1FoShoB | sharperguy: are u actually using pulse or ALSA? | 14:24 |
| sharperguy | pulse | 14:24 |
| Bodsda | TGD, neither are acceptable im afraid, cant afford new card and cant live with windows | 14:24 |
| sharperguy | was following a tutorial and it said navigate to a certain line, but the file was blank | 14:25 |
| Bodsda | sharperguy, pulseaudio problems are resolved by removing pulseaudio (unless you have a need for all the fancy features) | 14:25 |
| TGD | Hmm | 14:25 |
| TGD | Maby just maby (doubt it though) Its your box | 14:25 |
| lenix_ | jameslr, sorry for the headache :P it works now, gonna reboot in a while to see if its fine 100% .. and about the spaces, gonna remove them asap :@ | 14:25 |
| Bodsda | TGD, no, my dads machine, same device different box has the same bug | 14:26 |
| sharperguy | Bodsda, only if i can upgrade to intrepid when it comes out and still have it work | 14:26 |

| OB1FoShoB | sharperguy: the only files i had to edit (when i was using pulse) were asound.conf & liabo.conf | 14:27 |
| TGD | Bosda is your card under garantie | 14:27 |

| sharperguy | Bodsda, well the upgrade and have pulseaudio be configured and stuff because i here they're fixing it in intrepid | 14:27 |
| drcrimz | thanks bazhang ! | 14:28 |
| Maarekstele | anyone know when the netbook version of ubuntu is coming out for download? | 14:28 |
| bazhang | np | 14:28 |
| Bodsda | sharperguy, yeah, maybe -- im still not gonna live with it, unnecessary useless (to me) features | 14:28 |
| OB1FoShoB | sharperguy: it was good at letting me have multiple audio channels open at once, but would crash for no reason, and wine refused to work with it, so i went back to ALSA | 14:28 |
| TGD | What arcitechter are you using? | 14:28 |
| sharperguy | wine actually always worked fine for me | 14:28 |
| sharperguy | with pulse | 14:28 |
| Bodsda | TGD, me? | 14:28 |
| TGD | Yep | 14:28 |
| Bodsda | sharperguy, it shouldnt, it has 0 support | 14:29 |
| OB1FoShoB | sharperguy: then u were a lucky one :) | 14:29 |
| Bodsda | TGD, ive tried 32bit and 64bit (64bit chip) | 14:29 |
| TGD | Are you using partition? | 14:29 |
| OB1FoShoB | sharperguy: nothing i ran under wine would give me sound (when i had pulse) | 14:29 |
| === nick_riviera is now known as m4jkl | ||
| Bodsda | TGD, partition? | 14:29 |
| sharperguy | i think it might be dominating the sound card whenever i use it though | 14:29 |
| OB1FoShoB | sharperguy: the main reason i switched was for skype, using x64, but it would still mess up, just let me get a little further than i could with ALSA | 14:30 |
| Bodsda | sharperguy, i think its actually using alsa, pulseaudio cannot work with wine iirc | 14:30 |
| TGD | Bodsda well does it look like 2 drives are in your pc instead of the real amount 1 | 14:30 |
| Bodsda | TGD, i have 3 hard drives and over 10 partitions | 14:30 |
| Bodsda | im quad booting | 14:30 |
| sharperguy | well you can set it to oss and padsp everything, but thats not what i was doing | 14:30 |
| Pici | TGD: What does that have to do with wireless? | 14:30 |
| slayton | can you share a /home partition between a 64bit and 32bit version of ubuntu | 14:30 |
| TGD | Might be that you have to many OS`s and its causing ubuntu to stall | 14:31 |
| OB1FoShoB | sharperguy: if u run multiple audio apps like me, u may want to consider an old windoze box on the side (i know, cringe) | 14:31 |
| Bodsda | TGD, nope, lagged when i was single booting ubuntu | 14:31 |
| macrobad | Bodsa: So, what is your CPU doing: low-priority tasks, kernel, running some particular processes? | 14:31 |
| TGD | Wireless card then | 14:31 |
| TGD | Internet | 14:31 |
| WalloO | slayton, I think yes. But it'S a guess | 14:31 |

| offline_ | Any one know if its possible to make it where when you open windows, they start out transparent, rather then having to set it each time I open a new window? | 15:10 |
| Bodsda | offline_, ccsm --> opacity plugin maybe | 15:10 |
| Saftool | hello all | 15:11 |
| Bodsda | hi | 15:11 |
| Saftool | how do i access my ubuntu machien remotely? i was to configure (graphically :P ) from a windows machine. i heard there is a terminal program for windows? | 15:11 |
| offline_ | bodsda: no, thats for when u place the cursor at other windows, then the frst windows will be trnsparent | 15:11 |
| Bodsda | offline_, then you probably want to find the config file for the specific app, but im not sure how to help there, sorry | 15:12 |
| macrobad | Bodsa: It might be your machine dropping packets as well... Honestly speaking, it is quite difficult to analyze plain text output from tcpdump. You'd be better using Wireshark for local analysis. As for the clues, I don't like that the server was continuously not able to receive your packets... Investigate | 15:12 |
| macrobad | I have to go.. | 15:12 |
| Pici | offline_: iirc, in the 'general' settings there is a place where you can set opacity by window type. The folks in #compiz-fusion can help you define that rule better, I forget what the exact syntax is. | 15:12 |
| Bodsda | macrobad, cheers dude, but i dunno what to investigate | 15:12 |

| Pici | leeping2007: This is the main error: Not a RSA1 key file /home/leeping/.ssh/id_rsa | 15:16 |
| leeping2007 | Pici: I beg to differ - a working SSH session to a different server still has that same line in the output | 15:16 |

| clarkeo | hi just wondering I have two ethernet adapters one which I use to connect a LTSP client and the other one which I use to connect to the network, I can only get an internet connection or connection to the network when the one on the network side is configured with DHCP any ideas how I could convince it to allow a static IP? | 15:17 |
| Bodsda | I was advised to use wireshark to investigate non recievel of packets, but im not sure how, any thoughts/ | 15:17 |
| Saftool | cool thanx | 15:17 |
| Bodsda | ? | 15:17 |
| leeping2007 | However, on the working session, the final line is replaced with "debug1: SSH2_MSG_KEXINIT received", followed by more output | 15:17 |
| Pici | leeping2007: Well, Are you using the same command to start ssh in both instances? | 15:17 |
| leeping2007 | Pici: Yes | 15:17 |

| leeping2007 | mgolisch, yes, I do get the same messages about the keyfile | 15:18 |
| eitreach | I don't get it. in xorg.conf, it only says "configured video device", no drivers listed even though openchrome is installed. | 15:18 |
| leeping2007 | in other words, the debug output is all the same, except for the hostname... the files are identical up to "Connection reset by peer" | 15:19 |

| Caesi | Hullo .. by accident I installed all programs to my Home folder (I did everything via the terminal expecting that it would install everything to /usr), is this worth formatting for? :) | 16:00 |
| soundray | Caesi: what programs? | 16:00 |
| [d0wn] | Hi, I need some help. Last night, I was making some symlinks in an X11 folder, and now all I can see is my cursor | 16:00 |
| ramukmar | xczsacsz: had that once problem before but I can't remember now. Can you check if "nvidia-glx-new" is installed from the package manager? | 16:00 |
| Caesi | soundray, everything | 16:00 |
| m-c | xczsacsz: What kind of graphics card? | 16:00 |
| Gothfunc_ | AdvoWork: vmware server perhaps? | 16:00 |
| Caesi | cos the default folder in the terminal is the home folder | 16:00 |
| soundray | Caesi: aren't you using the package manager? | 16:00 |
| PTBD | m-c, http://paste.ubuntu.com/24237/ | 16:00 |
| Caesi | and I just aptituted everything | 16:00 |
| Caesi | no | 16:01 |
| xczsacsz | haha sorry for the nick but i had to rush in for help | 16:01 |
| ramukmar | xczsacsz: np, there's tab completion in pidgin ;) | 16:01 |
| xczsacsz | NVIDIA Ge force 7500 LE | 16:01 |
| Slart | AdvoWork: that seems awesome.. just connecting a screen (with built-in keyboard/mouse) and using it as a dumb terminal.. | 16:01 |
| soundray | Caesi: how do you mean you 'aptituted everything'? | 16:01 |
| Sylphid|work | AdvoWork, that setup works fine for me however my screens are not touch | 16:01 |
| scifiguy951 | usr/share/celestia/extras thats the file directorty | 16:01 |
| Caesi | in the default folder in the terminal I "sudo aptitude install blabla"-ed everything | 16:02 |
| m-c | PTBD: I do not think it will work. The drive is not formatted correctly, per FAT specifications | 16:02 |
| vasily | I got: Your audio capture settings are invalid. Please correct them in the Multimedia settings. | 16:02 |
| Slart | AdvoWork: I think you might run into problems though.. there might be an easier solution if you buy a small computer to use with the touch-screen and run it as a regular terminal | 16:02 |
| xczsacsz | abit of a weak graphics card but i had to see if i can get beryl on my ubuntu it looks so awesome | 16:02 |
| sam__ | i hear ppl talking about boycotting mono? whats the issue? | 16:02 |
| idefix_ | m-c thx, it is as from restart? | 16:02 |
| soundray | Caesi: that's fine -- the packages are installed to there proper directories then (/usr/ et cetera) | 16:02 |
| PTBD | it's a sd card from a camera. it was probably formatted with windows | 16:02 |
| AdvoWork | Sylphid|mobile can you explain your setup then please? | 16:02 |
| m-c | xczsacsz: AMD is coming out with open source graphic drivers for ATI-model cards. Keep it in mind, if you are in the market for a new card. | 16:03 |
| Caesi | ah right.. and why does ubuntu create folders in my Home folder? | 16:03 |
| m-c | xczsacsz: http://wiki.x.org/wiki/RadeonFeature | 16:03 |
| Caesi | hidden ones | 16:03 |
| nixnoob | m-c: where did you hear that? | 16:03 |
| db92 | anyone got any clue why my shell scripts may be skipping commands? if i do them individually it all works ok but if i use the script which has them in some specific order they just dont run | 16:03 |
| AdvoWork | Slart ideally if this works with 4 monitors,it would perhaps expand to 20 touch screens running from one server.. which may be ott.. so was thinking thin clients which = expense :S | 16:03 |
| Saftool | can i create shared folders on a ubuntu machine? where i cna either map a drive to it from another windows or ubuntu machine or even just browse it? | 16:03 |
| Slart | Caesi: usually for program settings etc.. your personal settings goes to your home folder | 16:03 |
| soundray | Caesi: the home folder is the default location for personal configuration files | 16:03 |
| Caesi | is this just some form of Shared Documents of Windows? | 16:03 |
| soundray | Caesi: no | 16:04 |
| xczsacsz | i ordered my copy of ubuntu and got it in the mail i was so suprised thanx!! but i am finding it very confusing to operate | 16:04 |
| m-c | nixnoob: The R500 and earlier drivers are already out and really nice 3D | 16:04 |
| Slart | AdvoWork: mm.. it would nice to just plug them in.. | 16:04 |
| xczsacsz | lots of commands and stuff | 16:04 |
| Caesi | I mean documents and settings :) | 16:04 |
| m-c | nixnoob: Expect them in the next Ubuntu release | 16:04 |
| xczsacsz | is there a easier way? like installing a software package? | 16:04 |
| soundray | xczsacsz: are you use to Windows? | 16:04 |
| soundray | *used | 16:04 |
| Slart | Caesi: more like documents and settings, local settings in windows | 16:04 |

| zeeqy | hi all,...looking for some help with SVN...???? | 16:04 |
| nixnoob | m-c: But the driver is proprietary not open source, you are talking of the AMD Catalyst 8.x series (fglrx) | 16:05 |
| AdvoWork | Slart yeah, just unsure where to start | 16:05 |
| Pici | zeeqy: What sort of help? Installing it or using it? | 16:05 |
| vasily | soundray: I got a message: Your audio capture settings are invalid. Please correct them in the Multimedia settings | 16:05 |
| Caesi | thanks a lot :) | 16:05 |
| AdvoWork | Gothfunc_ reckon vmware server would work? | 16:05 |
| zeeqy | pici: using it... | 16:05 |
| m-c | nixnoob I am talking about "ati" and "radeonHD" drivers | 16:05 |
| Slart | AdvoWork: how are the displays connected to the system? ordinary vga/hdmi/dvi connections? usb? | 16:05 |

| mgolisch | grulk: you did something wrong proly if just the grub shell apears it means it couldnt find its config file | 16:05 |
| soundray | grulk: grub hasn't found its files on (hd0,1). What's your ubuntu root partition? | 16:05 |
| nixnoob | nixnoob: yes but im not sure that those are actually FROM ati. | 16:05 |
| yesitisjustme | will there be a speed difference if i do swap on beginning of unallocated space vs end of unallocated space will one be faster than the other? | 16:06 |
| Saftool | can i create a shared folder on ubuntu? for both othe rlinux machines and windows ones as well | 16:06 |
| AdvoWork | Slart its just an idea in my head at the moment so it can be anyway, im just thinking the idea out | 16:06 |

| Slart | I'm using brasero to create music cd's but I often look for those extra features (volume normalization of an entire cd, reencoding of material etc) and brasero doesn't seem to have this.. any suggestions for a audio cd creator with those extra features? | 16:06 |
| nixnoob | lol did I just address myself? | 16:06 |
| soundray | grulk: that's (hd0,5) in grub speak | 16:06 |
| m-c | nixnoob: AMD bought out ATI last year and opened the specifications to their cards a few months back. Happy to discuss this further in #ubuntu-offtopic | 16:06 |
| AdvoWork | Gothfunc_ yeah, it does a bit lol, any suggestions? | 16:06 |
| xczsacsz | so can anyone help me? | 16:06 |
| AdvoWork | all they will be doing is viewing a web page, updating a mysql table, thats it | 16:06 |
| Pici | zeeqy: You might want to try asking in #svn then | 16:06 |
| vasily | soundray: I got the message: Your audio capture settings are invalid. Please correct them in the Multimedia settings | 16:06 |
| Gothfunc_ | AdvoWork: what is the setup for? | 16:07 |
| ramukmar | xczsacsz: what do you need help with? | 16:07 |
| grulk | soundray, why 5? | 16:07 |
| Gothfunc_ | AdvoWork: oh ok.. | 16:07 |
| zeeqy | pici:sure | 16:07 |
| yesitisjustme | will swap be faster in a certain location of harddrive or same? | 16:07 |
| hustle | hi guys. i installed ubuntu 8.04 yesterday and every boot sequence I see 3 seconds grub options .... is there any possibility to boot immediately | 16:07 |
| soundray | vasily: I heard you. I'm not familiar with this error. | 16:07 |
| m-c | scifiguy951: Okay, so from the terminal: sudo chown xxx:xxx /usr/share/celestia/extras (where xxx is your user name) | 16:07 |
| soundray | grulk: because grub starts counting at 0, so /dev/sda1 is (hd0,0) | 16:07 |
| xczsacsz | i need a restricted driver for Ubuntu i have a NVIDIA Ge force 7500LE | 16:07 |
| Slart | yesitisjustme: I think it's faster on the outer edge of the drive... which normally would be on the start of the drive.. afaik.. | 16:07 |
| grulk | /dev/sda2 then is 1 right | 16:08 |
| yesitisjustme | ok cool | 16:08 |
| Slart | yesitisjustme: but you will probably not see a difference | 16:08 |
| vasily | soundray: is there a specific channel for audio in Ubuntu? | 16:08 |
| Gothfunc_ | soundray: ok, it seems i don't have any machine here that's mounting the share correctly. just the two machines with the problem. | 16:08 |
| nixnoob | m-c: i asked u in ubuntu-offtopic | 16:08 |
| Caesi | does anyone use Wine? | 16:08 |
| grulk | soundray, make a mistake is not sda6 is sda2 so it should be hd0,1, or am I wrong? | 16:08 |
| soundray | vasily: no, but there are some troubleshooting pages on the wiki -- I'll get the bot to pm you | 16:08 |
| hiptobecubic | vasily, it depends on your problem. try #pulseaudio or #alsa | 16:08 |

| xczsacsz | can anyone please PM me willing to help me | 16:09 |
| ramukmar | xczsacsz: can you check if nvidia-glx-new is installed? go to system->administration->synaptic package manager | 16:09 |
| soundray | grulk: (hd0,1) -- yes | 16:09 |
| db92 | Caesi, ye | 16:09 |
| Slart | db92: scripts doesn't just skip some instructions.. something else is wrong.. is this run from cron? as root? | 16:09 |
| Caesi | db92, thx.. would I have to install DirectX to try to play a couple of games? | 16:09 |
| xczsacsz | if it isnt installed wat do i do? | 16:09 |
| erUSUL | !nvidia | xczsacsz | 16:09 |
| ubottu | xczsacsz: For Ati/NVidia/Matrox video cards, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto | 16:09 |
| soundray | Gothfunc_: and is the problem the same on each machine? | 16:10 |
| xczsacsz | i have seen that | 16:10 |
| xczsacsz | and it confuses me | 16:10 |
| ramukmar | xczsacsz: i'd ask you to install or reinstall it then | 16:10 |
| db92 | Caesi, im not an expert and that often depends on the game, i spose #winehq should be able to support you a bit better | 16:10 |
| [d0wn] | I ran two ln -s, and cp -s commands last night in a few X11 font directories so I could run a VNC server (which didnt work), but now when I tried getting back on to my computer, I just can only see my cursor. ssh wont connect, so does anyone know of a way I could fix this problem? | 16:10 |
| Caesi | thanks | 16:10 |
| soundray | grulk: do you have more than one hard disk drive? | 16:10 |
| db92 | Slart, idno, some just dont run >> | 16:10 |
| db92 | Slart, lemme try and debug from console though, still havent | 16:10 |
| erUSUL | xczsacsz: you only have to go to System>Admin>Hardware drivers and activte the driver for your card | 16:10 |
| Slart | db92: can you pastebin the script? | 16:10 |
| Slart | !pastebin | db92 | 16:10 |

| ramukmar | xczsacsz: a friend of mine had a similar issue, and i remember that solved it...it's strange but worked | 16:10 |
| Sylphid|work | [d0wn], what files did you link | 16:11 |
| xczsacsz | the drriver is activated but i cannot enable my graphics to its fullest | 16:11 |
| Slart | db92: usually these kinds of problems comes from the script running as root.. thus not finding some binaries in /home or something like that | 16:11 |
| xczsacsz | it doesnt alow me to it prompts me with a error message that it is not able to do so | 16:11 |
| [d0wn] | Sylphid|work: I believe they were /usr/share/lib/X11/fonts/ to /usr/lib/X11/fonts/ | 16:12 |
| soundray | [d0wn]: can you still boot in recovery mode? | 16:12 |

| butchoy_ | how can I add another panel?... | 16:12 |
| xczsacsz | well ubuntu runs it works normally but i cannot get the cube flipping window and visual effects | 16:12 |
| Slart | db92: or it might be that the script is run using dash/sh instead of bash.. there are some small differences | 16:12 |
| W8TAH | hey folks -- if i do an apt-get install - there are several types of packages listed -- those that are going to be installed, those that are suggested and some that are recomended -- how do i get it to do them all? | 16:13 |

| Slart | db92: ah.. you want to run some wine software with metacity instead of compiz..let me take a look | 16:14 |
| soundray | [d0wn]: yes, press Esc to see the grub menu and select the second boot entry | 16:14 |
| [d0wn] | Sylphid|work: These were the directories I linked: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/ubuntu-63/problem-with-vnc-385566/ | 16:14 |

| [d0wn] | soundray: hang on, let me give it a shot really quick | 16:14 |
| soundray | grulk: change the line 'hiddenmenu' in /boot/grub/menu.lst to '#hiddenmenu' | 16:15 |

| xczsacsz | i am even taking to my self here. | 16:16 |
| hiptobecubic | I'm having trouble getting alsa to recognize my external microphone. I did some digging around and looked at how windows classifies my sound card and it seems to me that alsa auto-detects the wrong hardware. I haven't been able to force the right hardware however. I started a thread at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=784597 that explains what i've found. | 16:16 |
| db92 | Slart, lemme check, although it is quite possible that i may crash | 16:16 |
| Slart | db92: I can't really see anything that would cause problems.. there shouldn't really be any need to run wineserver -k unless the app crashes | 16:16 |
| grulk | soundray, doesn't find that option on menu.lst | 16:16 |
| Slart | db92: I'll be here when you get back if you crash =) | 16:16 |
| xczsacsz | so wen i am on ubuntu do i connect to the internet and then what do i do? | 16:16 |
| db92 | Slart, sometimes after exiting some instances of the app stay loaded | 16:17 |
| xczsacsz | to get the restricated driver for my NVIDIA Ge force 7500LE | 16:17 |
| db92 | Slart, so i want it to close anything wine-related so as not to get the error message that an instance of the game is already running | 16:17 |
| Slart | db92: ah.. well.. it won't do any harm ... | 16:17 |
| soundray | grulk: it's normally on line 20 | 16:18 |

| Slart | db92: but the first "metacity --replace" command worked? | 16:19 |
| xczsacsz | but it asks me for a restricted driver... | 16:19 |
| db92 | ye i suppose | 16:19 |
| ramukmar | should be "nvidia-glx-new" | 16:19 |
| Slart | db92: that line might just be a warning.. it doesn't seem fatal to me | 16:19 |

I get the error "apache2: Syntax error on line 183 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Syntax error on line 1 of /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/xmlrpc.load: Cannot load /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_xmlrpc.so into server: /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_xmlrpc.so: undefined symbol: xmlrpc_registry_new". Does anybody know what this error m | 16:25 |
| jon__ | also audacity doesnt even detect the mic | 16:25 |
| Slart | db92: why ctrl+c? you shouldn't have to do that after the & | 16:25 |
| mad_max02 | soundray, thanks. I'm on it | 16:25 |
| magnetron | bella, no | 16:25 |
| bella | magnetron, can restore from phigh but of course without the desired changes | 16:25 |
| ramukmar | xczsacsz: just go to system->adminstration->synaptic package manager | 16:25 |
| db92 | Slart, to get me typing again, if i dont ctrl+c the effects are active but i cant type anything in the terminal :p | 16:25 |
| Saftool | Pici:latest just downlaoded it now | 16:25 |
| === gardar is now known as gardar`afk | ||
| ramukmar | xczsacsz: then look for nvidia-glx-new in that list, select and install | 16:25 |
| magnetron | bella, you made a copy of your xorg.conf file before you edited it. right? | 16:25 |
| xczsacsz | ok | 16:26 |
| xczsacsz | be back later | 16:26 |
| bella | yes sir | 16:26 |
| soundray | Saftool: it's disabled so you don't bypass ubuntu's package management | 16:26 |
| bella | yes magnetron | 16:26 |
| Gothfunc_ | AdvoWork: sorry, phone :) seems like vmware would be a bit overkill. if you can figure out how to connect multiple monitors and keyboards up and have them running seperate sessions that seems better | 16:26 |
| magnetron | bella, then copy it back and restart the x server | 16:26 |
| Slart | jon__: now take all this info and put it into one line and people might be able to help you.. while you wait you can google with the same info | 16:26 |
| Pici | Saftool: Then you'd need to run the updates from System>Administration>Update Manager (I think thats the app name). | 16:26 |
| soundray | Saftool: you can upgrade to the latest packages, including firefox-3.0 final, with 'sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get dist-upgrade' | 16:26 |
| Gothfunc_ | soundray: yes, the same | 16:26 |
| Slart | db92: that sounds odd.. tried just pressing enter? | 16:26 |
| Gothfunc_ | soundray: sorry fo the interruption | 16:26 |
| Gothfunc_ | *for | 16:27 |
| Saftool | oh ... thanx guys that was my next question lol | 16:27 |
| incorrect | how can i get the number of packages in my apt db? | 16:27 |
| bella | it doesnt work magnetron | 16:27 |
| magnetron | !doesn't work | bella | 16:27 |
| ubottu | bella: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too. | 16:27 |
| alexbobp | that was a mistake, the package that caused the problem was libapache2-mod-xmlrpc2. | 16:27 |
| soundray | Gothfunc_: are you using gnome's mechanisms for sharing and mounting? | 16:28 |
| hyakuhei | Hi all, I have a LUKS/LVM installation and I want to re-install ubuntu without clobbering user files in the different logical volumes. Is there a recommended way / guide for doing this ? | 16:28 |
| Gothfunc_ | soundray: just a straightforward mount from the console | 16:28 |
| lenix_ | /server/LENiX /media/LENiX smbfs credentials=/etc/samba/creds 0 0 , was giving me trouble, i got rid of the credentials option and passed the username / password directly ( username=aa,password=xx ) .. and auto mount worked | 16:28 |
| lenix_ | any idea why using the credentials gives me trouble ? | 16:28 |
| soundray | Saftool: or use the graphical version, 'gksudo update-manager' | 16:28 |
| db92 | Slart, ye that works as well :P | 16:29 |
| Slart | db92: you can try disabling the "scale" plugin too.. unless you use it a lot.. the error message seem to be about it | 16:29 |
| pangki | #jakarta | 16:29 |
| bella | I have restored using rconfigure phigh, command using command line to restore backed files doesn 't produce desired result, so it seems that edition of xorg conf in my configuration isn possible | 16:29 |
| BlackCow_ | is it possible to uninstall gnome and install xfce without touching my core ubuntu install? | 16:29 |
| soundray | Gothfunc_: once you've mounted, can you read and write to the shares with sudo? | 16:29 |
| bella | ubottu thanks for the helpful suggestion | 16:29 |
| ubottu | bella: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 16:29 |
| Pici | lenix_: What format was data in the credentials file in? | 16:29 |
| Slart | BlackCow_: gnome is a part of the core ubuntu install.. so no.. but you can install xfce and then uninstall gnome if you want.. you'll still be able to use your computer | 16:30 |
| lenix_ | the format was like | 16:30 |
| bella | a stupid bot | 16:30 |
| db92 | Slart, and how would i go about doing that? :p | 16:30 |
| lenix_ | username user | 16:30 |
| lenix_ | password pass | 16:30 |
| jon__ | hi all! FREEPORN, i cannot record my mic input using any software runnig hardy kubuntu i have tried jack but no avail. the mic input sound can be heard on the speaker, also audacity doesnt even detect the mic, inbuilt soundcard | 16:30 |
| Gothfunc_ | soundray: yes. | 16:30 |
| Slart | db92: system, preferences, appearance, visual effects.. there is a settings thingy there somewhere.. if there isn't try !ccsm | 16:30 |
| BlackCow_ | Slart: but will it remove all my program configurations and such? | 16:30 |
| lenix_ | Pici, is that format wrong or fine ? | 16:31 |
| Xavura | Can anyone recommend a good FTP client for Ubuntu | 16:31 |
| soundray | Gothfunc_: would fixing the uid and umask through the mount options solve it? | 16:31 |
| vasily | hiptibecubic: my sound works, the USB microphone does not work | 16:31 |
| Slart | !info gftp | Xavura | 16:31 |
| ubottu | xavura: gftp (source: gftp): X/GTK+ FTP client. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.0.18-17ubuntu1 (hardy), package size 45 kB, installed size 76 kB | 16:31 |
| Xavura | One that isn't called FIlezilla or FireFTP | 16:31 |
| Xavura | Is it in the repositories? | 16:31 |
| Gothfunc_ | soundray: i believe cifs extensions disables umask etc. | 16:31 |
| NHH | BlackCow_: if you just want to test it you can install the xfce packages without removing the gnome ones | 16:31 |
| frostburn | anyone know why snmp is only responding to the system mib but not ucd,hr,if? | 16:31 |
| Slart | BlackCow_: nope.. just uninstalling wont remove configurations.. unless you use the --purge option (or the "completely remove" thingy in synaptic) | 16:32 |
| Pici | lenix_: I'm not sure if it matters, but the (working) credentials file that I use here is in the username=myusername <next line> password=mypassword | 16:32 |
| Gothfunc_ | soundray: i can change the permission of the mount point, which seems to work, but it changes back after a seemingly random amount of time | 16:32 |
| lenix_ | mm, could it be the equal signs that's causing all the trouble ? | 16:32 |
| Gothfunc_ | soundray: oddly:s | 16:32 |
| Xavura | BlackCow: I installed Kubuntu on the disc then installed Ubuntu on top of that and then removed Kubuntu and that was fine :D | 16:32 |
| lenix_ | guess I should try | 16:32 |
| Dr_willis | Gothfunc_, im suprised it works at all that way.. one normally does not change mount point permissions like that. | 16:32 |
| BlackCow_ | ok so I would just do "sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop" and then boot into xfce and do "sudo apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop" ? | 16:32 |
| vasily | who can help me to make USB mic working? | 16:33 |
| === jon__ is now known as crator | ||
| soundray | Gothfunc_: according to man mount.cifs you can set uid in the options | 16:34 |
| Gothfunc_ | Dr_willis: how should i normally change it? umask? what about for cifs? any idea why the mount point would change to 700 when mounted? | 16:34 |
| Xavura | Is GFTP in the repositories? | 16:34 |
| soundray | vasily: have you read the wiki help? | 16:34 |
| [d0wn] | Is there any way I can list symlinks to remove them? | 16:34 |
| Gothfunc_ | soundray: reading now | 16:34 |
| Slart | Xavura: try typing this "!info gftp" or run "apt-cache search gftp" | 16:34 |
| Dr_willis | Gothfunc_, i dont recall ever using cifs, i used the smbfs at times. but now a days i normally use that fusesmb stuff to access my windows shares. | 16:34 |
| soundray | [d0wn]: find . -type l | 16:34 |
| norbi | When installing a program through compiling first and then using "make install". Am I right in assuming that if I want to remove whatever was installed I should use "make uninstall"? | 16:34 |
| idefix_ | m-c thanks for the tip but a help query started up the old browser :( | 16:34 |
| Dr_willis | Gothfunc_, i would guess its geting some defaults from somwehere. but not sure where. | 16:35 |
| soundray | norbi: yes, but not all programs provide 'make uninstall'. Look at the README and Makefile in the source directory. | 16:35 |
| vasily | soundray: yes, thank you very much for that link. I tryed EVERY setting in the volume control but it does not help! | 16:35 |
| soundray | norbi: to ensure you can always uninstall source-compile programs cleanly, use checkinstall | 16:36 |
| soundray | !checkinstall > norbi | 16:36 |
| ubottu | norbi, please see my private message | 16:36 |
| Gothfunc_ | soundray: "sets the uid that will own all files on the mounted filesystem. It may be specified as either a username or a numeric uid. This parameter is ignored when the target server supports the CIFS Unix extensions. " <-- the server does indeed support them | 16:36 |
| s0u][ight | hello i've managed to fix my touchpad problem with 2 boot parameters :D | 16:36 |
| [d0wn] | soundray: thanks for the, but unfortunately I have so many symlinks, that I can't see them all in PuTTy | 16:36 |
| soundray | vasily: your question in the channel should reflect what you have tried. | 16:36 |
| s0u][ight | !touchpad | 16:36 |
| ubottu | For a comprehensive Synaptics Touchpad guide, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SynapticsTouchpad | 16:36 |
| Pici | [d0wn]: pipe the output into less then. | 16:36 |
| m-c | idefix_: okay - not sure what we were discussing - so you will have to repeat the question | 16:37 |
| Dr_willis | Gothfunc_, heh - so THATS why one would use cifs instead. :) | 16:37 |
| Pici | [d0wn]: Er, that might have been confusing, like this: commandwithlotsofoutput | less | 16:37 |
| lenix_ | I'm having terrible LAN speed while on some other operating systems it's much faster, any idea? | 16:37 |
| idefix_ | m-c I was trying to set a browser as default | 16:37 |
| l3d | how do i set the host name back to where it doesnt say sudo:unable to resolve host in terminal | 16:37 |

| aguitel | anyone know where to get informtion about puppy linux ? | 16:37 |
| Bodsda | Where can i get a tar.bz2 of the latest kernel? | 16:37 |
| crator | aguitel google it | 16:37 |
| crator | lol | 16:37 |
| Slart | l3d: open the file /etc/hosts , remove the domain stuff there | 16:37 |
| c_lisp | l3d in /etc/hosts | 16:37 |
| soundray | Bodsda: at kernel.org -- but are you sure you want a custom kernel? | 16:38 |
| Pici | l3d: Make sure that the hostnames in /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts match | 16:38 |
| Gothfunc_ | Dr_willis: well the owner is set to 1002 instead of the expected username (which is how this mount used to appear). since reinstalling, owner is 1002, even though i'm mounting with the correct credentials, and i thought cifs extensions were supposed to manage permissions and stuff itself | 16:38 |
| norbi | soundray: Thanks. I read the makefile and that's how I found out about "make uninstall". Now, lets say I installed the program, and deleted the folder which includes the makefile. How then, would I go about uninstalling that application. By the way thanks for that wrapper, looks very useful. | 16:38 |
| Bodsda | soundray, im bored, my system has been fine for over a week, time i break it again ;~) | 16:38 |

| chrismat | Hi I need to install Ubuntu from CentOS via PXE | 16:39 |
| idefix_ | m-c my current default browser has some weird error | 16:39 |
| soundray | norbi: if you unpack the exact same source again, you should be able to run 'make uninstall' | 16:39 |
| chrismat | what is the best way todo that? | 16:39 |

| ubottu | chrismat, please see my private message | 16:40 |
| idefix_ | m-c sometimes when you need help for a program the program opens a browser to display it | 16:40 |
| idefix_ | I can't handle the big help files with my current defect browser | 16:41 |
| chrismat | can i use FAI if I'm not running the PXE server on Debian/Ubuntu? | 16:42 |
| idefix_ | m-c you're probably thinking "there has not yet been a questoin"? | 16:42 |
| db92 | Slart, its weird... when i run the script from terminal only metacity --replace & and compiz --replace & work... when i run the script from my launcher, only the wine command works >> | 16:42 |
| [d0wn] | How do I delete a symlink via terminal, now that I've found it | 16:43 |
| Slart | db92: how do you run it from the launcher? just "/home/db92/starthl2.sh" ? or "gnome-terminal -x /home/db92/starthl2.sh" ? | 16:44 |
| soundray | [d0wn]: with rm | 16:44 |
| [d0wn] | the symlink was in /usr/X11R6/ | 16:44 |
| kaliMastah | why is my gnokii not working properly with my ubuntu? | 16:44 |
| soundray | [d0wn]: 'sudo rm /usr/X11R6/whateveritsnameis' | 16:44 |

| vasily | soundray: My sound works well under autodetect, alsa, oss etc. So, the sound manuals will not help. I have one very specific problem: I need to make USB mic working. This is the only option for me since my soundcard does not have a mic jack. I tryed so far EVERY option in System-preferenses-sound and in volume control. I do not have any sound from my mic. It was recognized by the system since I got DSP1 in my devises as I read in Googl | 16:45 |
| vasily | e. Please, helpe | 16:45 |
| idefix_ | m-c no about Gimp | 16:45 |
| [d0wn] | Thanks, soundray | 16:45 |
| roadrunner-09 | "must be superuser to mount" when trying to mount cd ??? | 16:45 |
| Xavura | sudo? | 16:45 |
| roadrunner-09 | it should do it auto | 16:45 |
| Gothfunc_ | soundray, Dr_willis: everything inside the share if i sudo ls -o has normal permissions and are all owner '1002'. | 16:45 |
| Xavura | I always have to type sudo in front of stuff to get it to work | 16:45 |
| gordonjcp | !sudo | Xavura | 16:46 |
| ubottu | Xavura: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome), or !kdesu (KDE) | 16:46 |
| soundray | Gothfunc_: sorry, I don't think I can be of any help | 16:46 |
| Gothfunc_ | soundray: np, thanks | 16:46 |
| Xavura | Err, thanks for telling me that which I already know gordonjcp. | 16:46 |
| Xavura | Pay attention :P | 16:46 |
| [d0wn] | I just hope this was the symlink! | 16:46 |
| soundray | !install > InitX|F7 | 16:46 |
| ubottu | InitX|F7, please see my private message | 16:46 |
| soundray | Xavura: be careful how you talk to people who offer to help you | 16:47 |
| [d0wn] | It's telling me that it is a directory, would it normally do that for a symlink? | 16:47 |
| soundray | [d0wn]: no | 16:47 |
| Xavura | soundray: I'm not talking to anyone like anything, he was trying to help me with something that I didn't ask for help with, I was trying to help someone else, so err | 16:47 |
| InitX|F7 | soundray, got it thanks | 16:47 |
| Xavura | but I get what you mean... | 16:47 |

| Xavura | I know. | 16:48 |
| [d0wn] | A symlink that I made for X11 last night, for the font directory | 16:48 |
| Gothfunc_ | lenix_: did you fix the credentials issue? | 16:48 |
| Xavura | I did, soundray. | 16:48 |
| soundray | [d0wn]: use 'ls -l filename' to check whether it's really a symlink. | 16:48 |
| lenix_ | Gothfunc_, not really... I might try adding the equal signs but I'm not sure if they're the ones giving me trouble | 16:48 |
| Pici | soundray: That wont work if the file is a symlink to a directory. | 16:49 |
| soundray | No, you didn't: <Xavura> I always have to type sudo in front of stuff to get it to work | 16:49 |
| Gothfunc_ | lenix_: i'm having the same problem. couldn't figure out why | 16:49 |
| [d0wn] | I get: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 6 2008-06-12 13:50 bin -> ../bin | 16:49 |
| soundray | [d0wn]: use 'ls -ld filename' to check whether it's really a symlink. (Thanks Pici) | 16:49 |
| vasily | My sound works well under autodetect, alsa, oss etc. So, the sound manuals will not help. I have one very specific problem: I need to make USB mic working.

| vasily | , help | 16:49 |
| Xavura | Yeah, I was telling the guy to use sudo and he said it should do it automatically, I was saying that it doesn't for me and I have to manually type it | 16:49 |
| Gothfunc_ | lenix_: on both gutsy and hardy, many installations. must be doing something wrong but don't know what | 16:49 |
| lenix_ | If you want a temp solution, pass the user/password directly in /etc/fstab , with no credentials option | 16:49 |
| Pici | [d0wn]: Thats not the font folder though... | 16:49 |
| Gothfunc_ | lenix_: yes, just want to make it mroe secure :) | 16:49 |
| soundray | [d0wn]: that's a link to itself... | 16:50 |
| lenix_ | Gothfunc_, same.. did you try to put equal signs in creds file ? | 16:50 |
| soundray | [d0wn]: sorry, ignore me | 16:50 |
| * soundray needs a break | 16:50 | |
| lenix_ | Gothfunc_, like username=user password=pass | 16:50 |
| db92 | Slart, ive just placed the sh in /usr/games and i simply call it with the filename | 16:50 |
| Gothfunc_ | lenix_: i used examples i found on several sites. they did have = iirc | 16:50 |
| vasily | are there different channels here? | 16:51 |

| Xavura | vasily: yes | 16:51 |
| ubottu | Xavura: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 16:51 |
| Dr_willis | vasily, this irc server has 1000s of channels | 16:51 |
| Slart | db92: that might the problem.. try changing the launcher to "gnome-terminal -x /full/path/to/the/script.sh" | 16:51 |
| lenix_ | Gothfunc_, ya.. as for me I tried doing it without equal signs, but it doesnt work | 16:51 |
| Xavura | soundray: ? I am. | 16:51 |
| soundray | Xavura: not consistently enough | 16:51 |
| db92 | Slart, whats the -x for? :P | 16:51 |
| Xavura | soundray: I can't help if I forget every now and again, sorry | 16:51 |
| Gothfunc_ | lenix_: perhaps there's something fundamental the manual doesn't tell us :) | 16:52 |
| Pici | [d0wn]: The bin directory should exist as a symlink to ../bin You shouldnt be removing that. | 16:52 |
| soundray | Xavura: then don't say that you are if you really aren't | 16:52 |

| gabbler | hi does anyone know anything about xchat? | 16:53 |
| Dr_willis | gabbler, its an irc client. :) | 16:53 |
| Gothfunc_ | hehe | 16:53 |
| Gothfunc_ | i know that also | 16:53 |
| Dr_willis | gabbler, it pays to ask the real question... | 16:53 |
| Saftool | brb on my ubuntu irc client ;0 | 16:53 |
| Xavura | X Chat is a good client for Linux, not as great on Windows though, but what is | 16:53 |
| gabbler | sorry to be more precise, i would like to tune the colour schemes etc and whatever i try nothing happens | 16:53 |
| soundray | vasily: which program do you want to use for capturing/recording -- audacity? | 16:53 |
| gabbler | sorry dr_willis | 16:54 |
| Doctor_Nick | How do you switch character encoding on a per-app basis? | 16:54 |
| Doctor_Nick | I somehow switched on cryllic on my terminal | 16:54 |
| aleix | does anyone know what package contains the "ip" tool? | 16:54 |
| Dr_willis | gabbler, thers xchat, and xchat-gnome. most people seem to perfer the normal 'xchat' - | 16:54 |
| soundray | Doctor_Nick: if you don't know how that happened, it may help if you type 'reset' | 16:54 |
| kaii | is it a known problem that pidgin in 8.04 cant login to ICQ since today? | 16:54 |
| Slart | db92: it's a switch that tells gnome-terminal to run whatever comes after it in the terminal after it's started | 16:55 |
| Doctor_Nick | reset? | 16:55 |
| vasily | soundray: yes, audacity. I just intalled it | 16:55 |
| gabbler | dr_willis: thanks i will have a look at that | 16:55 |
| db92 | Slart, didnt work | 16:55 |

| dave11 | ahh thats the problem... you need a 32 bit browser for the plugin to work | 17:56 |
| soundray_ | dave11: no, you don't | 17:56 |
| Slart | dave11: nope.. you can use a 64-bit browser with the wrapper thingy.. or use a 32-bit firefox .. | 17:56 |
| yascher | Slart: I was lucky to login there. It's not down, just overloaded. but there is no news on site, and latest pidgin version is from May | 17:56 |
| dave11 | thats what the flash site says | 17:56 |

| trashguy | linuxpwns, look in the dmesg | 19:05 |
| jackstraw_ | amenado the bios will show the 80gb hd that is connected to the motherboard i installed ubuntu on but not the other drives the are connected using pci controlers | 19:05 |
| amenado | linuxpwns-> and if you can, open up your box | 19:05 |
| linuxpwns | trashguy: where would i find that? | 19:06 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | Ubuntuuser - please dont dcc people | 19:06 |
| MrKeuner | m-c: does ralink supply free or proprietary drivers? | 19:06 |
| amenado | jackstraw_-> its on hd3,0 line 131, is that how you have setup up your bios to boot from the 3rd hd ? <--- did you ever see this ? | 19:06 |
| trashguy | linuxpwns, run it from a console | 19:06 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Ubuntuuser Patience.. and ask a detailed question that includes your hardware information and your problem and what you tried | 19:06 |
| dave11 | Slart: how is it not impossible to put the flash player on the live cd if it requires a restart for the new kernel? | 19:06 |
| wolfeySI | Jack_Sparrow: interesting mess, both aticonfig and ubuntu displayconfig-gtk just added devices :) | 19:06 |
| m-c | MrKeuner: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_open_source_wireless_drivers | 19:06 |

| Jack_Sparrow | amenado 4th drive | 19:07 |
| wolfeySI | and ubuntu is for noobs? | 19:07 |
| amenado | jackstraw_-> i stand corrected, 4th drive.. | 19:07 |

| OB1FoShoB | linuxpwns: sudo apt-get install gnome-device-manager | 19:07 |
| MrKeuner | m-c: cool | 19:07 |
| jackstraw_ | amenado hd's 0,1 and 2 are only found by ubuntu not the bios | 19:08 |
| m-c | wolfeySI: You're using a graphics card that was built by a company that - up until several months ago - was decidedly not supporting linux desktops at all | 19:08 |
| Slart | dave11: look.. I'm running out of patience here and I don't appreciate being told I spread disinformation when I'm trying to help someone.. ask the channel.. perhaps they can help you | 19:08 |
| Mr_Bad_News | i have a mini usb dc adapter will it be able to charge my laptop? | 19:08 |
| wolfeySI | m-c: not true, using ati binary driver for 3 years now | 19:08 |
| wolfeySI | and only thing that doesnt work is Composite | 19:08 |
| trashguy | typically when you have a SAS/SATA controller you setup hds through the ocntroller not the bios | 19:08 |
| cannonball | Is there any kind of FAQ item that addresses the Firefox 3 problem with locking the sound device? With FF2, I could play sound from multiple apps with no problems. Since the update to FF3, once I play _anything_ with audio in FF3, none of my other apps will work again until FF3 is closed. | 19:08 |
| Mr_Bad_News | its the kind for a car cigarette lighter | 19:08 |
| amenado | jackstrap then your menu.lst is faulty, correct the entries to point to the correct partition where to find the kernel and initrd | 19:08 |

| Ubuntuuser | ok in short i installed microsoft virtual pc installed ubuntu then couldent log in so i edited the boot command with vga=771 -- and it let me log in then i noticed the wireless wasnt working i have a intel4965AGN i dont know how to use linux i dont know how to use terminal all i know it what i googled | 19:09 |

| OB1FoShoB | linuxpwns: or... sudo dmidecode | 19:09 |
| m-c | wolfeySI: you are expecting the ubuntu tools to work around these proprietary, closed software packages -- well, it will work a lot better when the open source version of those drivers are incorporated into the next version of Ubuntu | 19:09 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | Ubuntuuser - your in virtualPC? | 19:09 |
| jackstraw_ | amenado the one ubuntu i calling the fourth one | 19:09 |
| amenado | jackstraw_-> then you will not able to boot, its on the wrong drive | 19:09 |
| wolfeySI | m-c: i just expect ubuntu to at least not be more confusing than official ati-drivers installer | 19:10 |
| Ubuntuuser | yes | 19:10 |
| wolfeySI | m-c: it was easier to configure on gentoo?! | 19:10 |
| amenado | jackstraw_-> if you do not like to pay attention to what am saying,, we will go in circles forever | 19:10 |
| Jeruvy | tripps: review your logs for an explanation System -> admin -> system logs | 19:10 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | Ubuntuuser - pretty sure your not gonna get it to work on virtualpc | 19:10 |
| m-c | wolfeySI: I gave you the link to the open source versions of those drivers. You're welcome to give them a shot and see if they work for you. | 19:10 |
| legend2440 | oggu: i have Asus A8V Deluxe MB so may be different than yours | 19:10 |
| wolfeySI | m-c: i think i will download ati drivers instead | 19:11 |
| wolfeySI | from ati.com | 19:11 |
| Ubuntuuser | deadkennedy2880 - pretty sure or definate ? | 19:11 |
| MrKeuner | Ubuntuuser: also try wubi or virtualbox, not sure if microsoft virtual pc is a sane product unlike other microsoft products | 19:11 |
| m-c | wolfeySI: You might check their support forums while you are on their website. | 19:11 |
| trashguy | Qemu is probably the best for hoem use tbh | 19:11 |

| tripps | Jeruvy, massive amounts of kernel hex messages. anything I should grep? | 19:12 |
| ilh700 | *34gb motherboard | 19:12 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | Ubuntuuser - if your nervous to install and ruin your windows, install with wubi | 19:12 |
| trashguy | amenado, what is he trying to do | 19:12 |
| amenado | jackstraw_-> install ubuntu where your bios can boot from, not from where the bios can not see | 19:12 |
| m-c | MrKeuner: Ubuntu has virtualization built into the kernel now with kvm and qemu | 19:12 |
| Niklas_E | to use a ATI SBx00 sound you use atiixp as sounddriver or should I use the hda intel? | 19:12 |
| Ubuntuuser | yeah well i believe you correct on sh*t luck meh i knew it was too good to be true just something i was trying out i will try on another machine see how it goes but i dont think my other laptop has compatiable HW oh well | 19:12 |

| trashguy | jackstraw_, In your bios, boto section you should have boot options for liek PCI bus or somethign like that to boot to as an option | 19:13 |

| Slart | dave11: I'll do this as clearly as I can.. you can use flash while running from a live cd.. even if you have to use apt to install stuff.. even if there are kernel updates waiting for you.. but I don't want to help you with it.. ask someone else.. | 19:14 |

| iilh | :) | 19:17 |
| ^Tukotih^ | Um i have a simple question... | 19:17 |
| Slart | hiptobecubic: install the pulseaudio tools.. I think padevchooser might be the one you want.. or paman | 19:17 |
| amenado | jackstraw_-> look at line 131 of your menu.lst, now do you expect to boot from there? if not, then enter a valid entry, or else you would not be able to boot | 19:17 |
| ^Tukotih^ | How do i install .bin files (Etc. Opera) | 19:18 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | iilh - my bad, i still dont see it after scrolling up a ways | 19:18 |

| wolfeySI | Daniel^_: try installing Java Webstart 6.0, not sure about mozilla 3 but works in firefox | 19:20 |

| DeadKennedy2880 | !attitude > DeadKennedy2880 | 19:20 |
| ubottu | DeadKennedy2880, please see my private message | 19:20 |
| hiptobecubic | Slart, if you open pamanchooser and look at the default server list you can choose among all of them that are present on the network. I am the only one in the list but it still tries to access a computer that used to be there and is now gone | 19:20 |
| ^Tukotih^ | Gr8 Thanks, Jack_Sparrow | 19:20 |

| Slart | hiptobecubic: pkill -9 pulseaudio to kill the old one.. then run pulseaudio -D in a terminal | 19:21 |
| OB1FoShoB | lilh: sometimes u can use the disk manufacturers tools to partition it correctly, but if the bios won't allow, u need a card | 19:21 |

| OB1FoShoB | lilh: so it just won't let you partition it basically? | 19:30 |

| Adamn | im not sure why i cannot see the wireless networks as i did when i ran the cd live | 19:35 |
| Jack_Sparrow | iilh So.. the jumpers are set to stay within the 1024 max.. do you get to the start or install screen? and are you using the livecd? | 19:35 |
| Adamn | i've updated everything btw | 19:35 |
| Jack_Sparrow | To Find Dependencies apt-cache depends <DEB program package>. | 19:35 |

| m-c | Adamn: You might consider purchasing a USB or PCMCIA wifi device, if all else fails. There are linux driver issues with many wifi cards these days. https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/32516 | 19:36 |
| eljaco | Jack_Sparrow, is there some way to see what packages depend on X, not what packages X depends on? | 19:37 |

| shadowhywind | hi, does anyone know of a way to copy a existing ubuntu installation to an external bootable hdd? | 19:37 |
| tvrtko | nigma: i use it like that cause i didn't find any bluetooth gui program | 19:37 |
| m-c | Adamn: The cost of a wifi device may be much less than the effort required to enable and maintain a difficult to support wifi device with non-free drivers. | 19:37 |
| mw-home | Jeruvy: ok, thanks | 19:37 |
| Jack_Sparrow | shadowhywind dd copy.. but you will need to fix mbr/grub issues | 19:38 |
| eljaco | Jack_Sparrow, geeze, ok, calm down, I didn't know it would take a long time, I was wondering if there was a simple command that did that | 19:38 |
| Jack_Sparrow | m-c well said | 19:38 |
| Adamn | i'd rather just get my integrated one working, as im broke right now | 19:38 |
| tvrtko | nigma: i think kde has some gui interface for bluetooth | 19:38 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | adamn - its prolly not it, but system/admin/network | 19:38 |
| tvrtko | try googling round | 19:38 |
| nigma | tvrtko: in gusty i used simply to send from phone and a popup apparead.... but now with hardy is no more like that :\ i dont know what is the setting i've to change | 19:38 |
| DeadKennedy2880 | adamn - unlock it and make sure roaming's enabled | 19:38 |
| nigma | tvrtko: gnome bloototh had too | 19:39 |
| m-c | Jack_Sparrow: They are less than $20 these days, some less than $10 at Fry's Electronics. No one is that broke they cannot afford it. | 19:39 |

| ASULutzy | asmodai[B]: Yea, you can use ssh -CX to forward gui output | 19:46 |
| wolfeySI | ssh -X can export to Xserver over network | 19:46 |
| wolfeySI | and you have commercial Xservers that work on windows | 19:46 |
| asmodai[B] | ASULutzy: ya that's what you had said yesterday, going to set it up today | 19:46 |
| ASULutzy | Jeruvy: For example ssh -CX the.ip.address.here and then you can type like, nautilus, and that will forward the GUI stuff from nautilus through ssh | 19:47 |

| ASULutzy | asmo[B]: Your router doesn't know where to send the traffic, you need to tell it | 20:09 |

| joaopinto | the-herby, was your browser getting an "open with" box instead of the php output ? | 20:10 |
| XLV | soup12, either run it as sudo nvidia-settings, or if you add it in a meny, use gksudo nvidia-settings | 20:10 |
| the-herby | joaopinto: yes | 20:10 |
| raheem | she meant that the pubic ip of that pc is visible & connnectible, may be | 20:11 |
| ASULutzy | Jack_Sparrow: It's a weird feature on routers. Instead of properly setting up port forwarding, you can direct all traffic sent to the router that doesn't have forwarding properly specified to go to a specific machine in ht network | 20:11 |
| asmo[B] | Jack_Sparrow: DMZ allows all connections to a specific IP | 20:11 |

| joaopinto | zelrikriando, a few people have reported that ICQ is not working with all the linux clients, probably due to a version change | 20:26 |
| joaopinto | ops, i mean protocol | 20:26 |
| plouffe | raheem, sorry what audio? | 20:26 |
| ikonia | FeniX: compiz fusion was not really developed for a core OS that old | 20:27 |
| zelrikriando | joaopinto, I know...I was wondering if there is a fix up there | 20:27 |
| raheem | don't u have sound button over the panel ? | 20:27 |
| ferronica | ikonia: it does not ask for password | 20:27 |
| ikonia | ferronica: why should it ? | 20:27 |
| ferronica | ikonia: i want it password protected | 20:27 |
| plouffe | are you talking about ekiga or sound recorder? | 20:27 |
| joaopinto | zelrikriando, you should report it at launchpad.net .. to make sure someone will fix it :) | 20:27 |
| ikonia | well you can encypt it | 20:27 |
| FeniX | ok thx guys, i relay cant install it on edgy ? | 20:28 |
| === arashO|o is now known as arashO|brb | ||
| ferronica | ikonia: before that it ask for password confirmation before mounting which is more secure | 20:28 |
| ikonia | ferronica: I assume you've used a "sudo" command within the last 15 minutes before mounting | 20:28 |
| OB1FoShoB | anyone familiar with uck? | 20:28 |
| ikonia | FeniX: it's not the best thing to do | 20:28 |
| joaopinto | OB1FoShoB, not really | 20:28 |
| ikonia | OB1FoShoB: with what ? | 20:28 |
| ferronica | ikonia: no idea :( | 20:28 |
| raheem | plouffe: the logic is that, may be u have selected the wrong device .. from the gnome panel, right mouse click on the audio | 20:28 |
| joaopinto | !uck | ikonia | 20:28 |
| ubottu | ikonia: 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/ | 20:28 |
| FeniX | why is buggy for rdgy | 20:28 |
| ikonia | ferronica: for a test - reboot, don't use sudo and try to mount it | 20:28 |
| FeniX | why is buggy for edgy | 20:28 |
| zelrikriando | joaopinto, I am sure it got reported, lots of people were complaining about it | 20:28 |
| ikonia | FeniX: it was built after edgy existed | 20:29 |
| FeniX | shit | 20:29 |
| ferronica | ikonia: nothing happens | 20:29 |
| ikonia | FeniX: that language is uncalled for | 20:29 |
| ikonia | FeniX: as in no password ? | 20:29 |
| joaopinto | zelrikriando, if it was, there maybe a fix attached to the bug report ;) | 20:29 |
| OB1FoShoB | ikonia: uck - Ubuntu Customization Kit | 20:29 |
| ferronica | ikonia: i just rebooted | 20:29 |
| FeniX | ok sorry | 20:29 |
| ikonia | OB1FoShoB: I've never seen that - who makes it ? | 20:29 |
| lordi | hi all, any news about pidgin? | 20:29 |
| FeniX | thx again | 20:29 |
| ikonia | lordi: in what way ? | 20:29 |
| ferronica | ikonia: didnt used sudo | 20:29 |
| lordi | its off | 20:29 |
| joaopinto | lordi, which kind of news would you expect :P ? | 20:29 |
| PyroCF | Hey all | 20:29 |
| ikonia | lordi: what do you mean, it's off ? | 20:29 |
| ikonia | ferronica: not used sudo for ANY command | 20:30 |
| ferronica | ikonia: it just happend fro last 1 month | 20:30 |
| ferronica | ikonia: No | 20:30 |
| tabularasa_ | babolat, can i have your conky configfile? | 20:30 |
| OB1FoShoB | ikonia: not sure, here is their site: http://uck.sourceforge.net/ | 20:30 |
| ikonia | ferronica: let me have a look at the chance logs | 20:30 |
| ferronica | ikonia: before that it ask for authentication | 20:30 |
| Unislash | hey guys, i'm installing ubuntu (yet again), and i want to know how to make my partitions. I'm planning on making one partition for my data (/home) and one for the install (/). | 20:30 |
| Unislash | my question is, which (if any) should be logical, and which should be primary? I am dual booting, with windows xp partition taking up the first partition spot. | 20:30 |
| element_ | hi everyone | 20:30 |
| plouffe | raheem, ok I found it. Says Master HDA ATI SB Alsa mixer | 20:30 |
| ikonia | OB1FoShoB: ok, so whats the question | 20:30 |
| zZ0ro | i think by use monodevelop i can run by load(open) src/paintdotnet.sln | 20:30 |
| element_ | does anyone have a zattoo account?? | 20:31 |
| raheem | yup .. play around with it .. it could be the issue ;) | 20:31 |
| tabularasa_ | element_, yes. why | 20:31 |
| element_ | tabularasa_: where are you from? | 20:31 |
| babolat | tabularasa_: ok.. one moment | 20:31 |
| plouffe | ok thanks | 20:31 |
| tabularasa_ | element_, germany | 20:31 |
| element_ | tabularasa_: im from el salvador, so i cant create an account | 20:31 |
| PyroCF | I wish wine worked for steam flawlessly -.- | 20:31 |
| raheem | i had gone through the same issue before .. goood luck | 20:31 |
| joaopinto | zZ0ro, I don't think that you can open a VS sln with monodevelop... | 20:31 |
| tabularasa_ | element_, really? why is that? | 20:31 |
| ferronica | ikonia: system - administration - system log ? | 20:31 |
| element_ | tabularasa_: what happened if i use an account created in germany? | 20:31 |
| lordi | pidgin is tellin me, client version too old. there was an security problem with msn | 20:31 |
| ikonia | ferronica: huh ? | 20:31 |
| lordi | and pidgin is not available via apt | 20:32 |
| tabularasa_ | element_, i think they check you ip adress | 20:32 |
| ikonia | lordi: I'm connected to msn with pidgin now - it's not problem | 20:32 |
| element_ | tabularasa_: can you create an account for me please? i wanna try that | 20:32 |
| ferronica | ikonia: what you want to see | 20:32 |
| asmo[B] | I've tried connecting to the remote desktop from an external IP with no luck, I can connect no problem with the local IP, my router is set to DMZ for this machine and I had a friend try from his windows desktop with no luck.... ideas? | 20:32 |
| joaopinto | lordi, pidgin is available from the repositories.. assuming you are using Hardy | 20:32 |
| lordi | yes | 20:32 |
| XLV | element_, try tor, and use some relay on a german ip | 20:32 |
| tabularasa_ | tabularasa_, meaning you can only watch channels which are supported by your country | 20:32 |
| ikonia | ferronica: no, I'm looking at the change log | 20:32 |
| babolat | tabularasa_: http://paste.ubuntu.com/24302/ | 20:32 |
| ikonia | lordi: pidgin is available in the repo | 20:32 |
| OB1FoShoB | ikonia: well, i went thu the steps of loading svn and their trunk, but it's like it's not loaded when i go 'uck-gui' it says it can't find it | 20:32 |
| element_ | XLV: what is tor? is something like zattoo? | 20:32 |
| tabularasa_ | thanks babolat | 20:32 |
| ikonia | lordi: pidigin is also working fine with msn | 20:32 |
| XLV | element_, ehm... if its video watching, tor is too slow | 20:32 |
| ferronica | ikonia: ok | 20:33 |
| tabularasa_ | element_, tor is a proxy network something bla | 20:33 |
| XLV | element_, no, tor is an anonymizer | 20:33 |
| ikonia | OB1FoShoB: do a find for it | 20:33 |
| tabularasa_ | element_, do you want to give me your email? | 20:33 |
| XLV | !tor | 20:33 |
| ubottu | TOR is a project aiming to provide anonymous connections via specialized !proxies - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TOR for information and help - Note that TOR is blocked on most Ubuntu IRC channels, please see !hostmask and !tor-gpg | 20:33 |
| OB1FoShoB | ikonia: i did, nothing | 20:33 |
| element_ | tabularasa_: sure urbina_alex@hotmail.com | 20:33 |
| asmo[B] | !rdp | 20:33 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about rdp | 20:33 |
| macondo | I want festival to say something but nothing happens. I'm listening to some music using Amarok. Is it possible that a conflict between both appear? How can I solve it? | 20:33 |
| ikonia | OB1FoShoB: so you've not installed it correctly | 20:33 |
| asmo[B] | !RDP | 20:33 |
| Master_Z | hello I need some help | 20:33 |
| Master_Z | I installed the wrong virtualbox kernel | 20:33 |
| lordi | http://archives.neohapsis.com/archives/bugtraq/2008-06/0225.html | 20:33 |
| Master_Z | so on my grub I have a lot of kernels | 20:33 |
| zelrikriando | joaopinto, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pidgin/+bug/244591 ... I dont know how to apply this patch | 20:33 |
| Master_Z | how do I get rid of them? | 20:33 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 244591 in pidgin "Cannot connect to ICQ ("The client version you are using is too old.")" [Critical,Confirmed] | 20:33 |
| arooni-mobile | how long sould dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb take on a 7200 300GB hard drive on an ide channel ? i'm thinking 50MB/s = 1 hr 40 min??? ideas? | 20:33 |
| ikonia | lordi: why are you quoting that at me | 20:33 |
| Unislash | would anyone be so kind as to help me out with installing ubuntu? i need to know what partitions should be logical/primary (splitting / and /home) | 20:33 |
| OB1FoShoB | ikonia: i thought i did, but i've not did much with svn, used to deb packages | 20:34 |
| joaopinto | zelrikriando, if you are not familiar with building from source, better just wait for the update :P | 20:34 |
| joaopinto | Unislash, I am using logical partitions | 20:34 |
| Master_Z | I installed the wrong virtualbox kernel. Now my grub has several kernels on it, how do I get rid of them? | 20:34 |
| joaopinto | Master_Z, you sudo apt-get remove them ? | 20:34 |
| macondo | Unislash: / was to be primary, always. /home doesn't matter | 20:34 |
| Unislash | well, now i've got conflicting info :/ | 20:35 |
| Master_Z | joaopinto how do I do that? | 20:35 |
| joaopinto | / does not need to be primary | 20:35 |
| ikonia | ferronica: I can't see anything in the last few updates to note that change in behviour | 20:35 |
| OB1FoShoB | ikonia: the documentation says to do the svn and then run 'uck-gui', nothing else | 20:35 |
| ikonia | OB1FoShoB: contact the support people then | 20:35 |
| joaopinto | Master_Z, go to the package manager, search for the modules you have installed.. and remove them | 20:35 |
| zZ0ro | VS?? i check open and ok but when i try run show me another think error or what i dont know ((sorry my English so bad | 20:35 |
| OB1FoShoB | ikonia: that was my next step, thanx for trying :-) | 20:35 |
| Unislash | is there any order that i need these partitions in? i thought i read somewhere that the logical ones have to be next to each other or something | 20:35 |
| tabularasa_ | element_, ok | 20:35 |
| ferronica | ikonia: why it didint ask for authentication | 20:35 |
| Master_Z | also, I dont know what my original kernel was, but I think it was 2.6.24-18 | 20:35 |
| ASULutzy | To be fair, having multiple kernel modules isn't the end of the world? | 20:35 |
| element_ | tabularasa_: i will check my email right now | 20:35 |
| ikonia | ferronica: a good question, I can't see anything to say that something has been updated | 20:36 |
| ferronica | ikonia: one month before asks for pass | 20:36 |
| timandtom | How do I get Ubuntu to try to auto detect what graphics card I'm using? It isn't set up for the right one, and I really have no idea which one I have... Just that it's an old ATI Sapphire. | 20:36 |
| ikonia | ferronica: something that changes that behaviour | 20:36 |
| ikonia | ferronica: I'm looking through gnome and hal change logs now | 20:36 |
| ferronica | ikonia: same case with you? | 20:36 |
| greenfishx3 | why is linux having severe isussiaving reading my dvds? | 20:36 |
| greenfishx3 | they are all burned on quality dye, verbatim or taiou yuden | 20:36 |
| m-c | timandtom: Try running 'lspci' | 20:36 |
| nixnoob | timandtom: lspci | grep VGA | 20:36 |
| tabularasa_ | joaopinto, you don't know a mirror server for pidgin sources, do you? | 20:36 |
| ikonia | ferronica: yes, I can mount my disks via the gui without passwords | 20:36 |
| element_ | tabularasa_: whats the password? | 20:36 |
| ASULutzy | greenfishx3: Are they readable on other operating systems? | 20:36 |
| zelrikriando | joaopinto, I know how to compile things...like my programs...not ubuntu packages ... ;) | 20:37 |
| joaopinto | tabularasa_, you can get the sources from the ubuntu repositories, apt-get source pidgin | 20:37 |
| tabularasa_ | from 1 to 6 | 20:37 |
| ferronica | ikonia: my bro sometimes uses ubuntu and he deleted many data :( | 20:37 |
| tabularasa_ | thx joapinto | 20:37 |
| ferronica | ikonia: i hate him | 20:37 |
| greenfishx3 | im trying once more to cp my dvd, and the system is almost dead , right now my txt takes seconds just to show up in here | 20:37 |
| joaopinto | zelrikriando, it's easy once you do it: start with apt-get source pidgin :P | 20:37 |
| ikonia | ferronica: thats not my concern, but I understand why you want this behaviour | 20:37 |
| greenfishx3 | ASULutzy: they work great in windows and mac | 20:37 |
| zelrikriando | joaopinto, ok let's learn that | 20:37 |
| ikonia | ferronica: I assume that this is now being mounted in userspace so hence the password not being prompted, but I don't know yet | 20:37 |
| ferronica | ikonia: so please let me know | 20:37 |
| timandtom | m-c, nixnoob, thanks, lspci found it. Now what do I do? | 20:38 |
| zelrikriando | joaopinto, I am following you | 20:38 |
| element_ | tabularasa_: what password do you use in my user? | 20:38 |
| soup12 | Whats the X Help channel does anyone know? | 20:38 |
| tabularasa_ | element_, for the 3rd time: 123456 | 20:38 |
| nixnoob | timandtom: what kind of VGA card does it say u have? | 20:38 |
| Master_Z | I have a question | 20:38 |
| element_ | sorry | 20:38 |
| Eamo | 8.04 and ATI Radeon Express 1150 graphics - flickering screen - any help | 20:38 |
| ikonia | soup12: xorg | 20:38 |
| Master_Z | how do I get virtualbox to work? | 20:38 |
| ASULutzy | greenfishx3: Weird, what does dmesg | tail say? anything? | 20:38 |
| ferronica | ikonia: if you know when you open networks to access you need to unlock it | 20:38 |
| raheem | #xorg | 20:38 |
| Unislash | what should my swap space be? Primary or logical? | 20:38 |
| element_ | tabularasa_: thx dude | 20:38 |
| ASULutzy | Master_Z: What's wrong with it? Usually you just do sudo apt-get install virtualbox | 20:38 |
| tabularasa_ | :P | 20:38 |
| ferronica | ikonia: same case with hdd | 20:38 |
| timandtom | nixnoob, 00:11.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon RV100 QY [Radeon 7000/VE] | 20:39 |
| element_ | tabularasa_: i will try to use the zattoo right now | 20:39 |
| joaopinto | zelrikriando, then just: cd source-dir; patch -p1 < patch_file (the one available on the bug report) | 20:39 |
| raheem | Unislash: anything u like :) | 20:39 |
| ikonia | ferronica: yes, it will be | 20:39 |
| sonium | hey, where are the fixed pidgin packages? | 20:39 |
| Master_Z | asulutzy, I installed it via virtualbox, but it says I'm using the wrong kernel? | 20:39 |
| nixnoob | timandtom: i would install the ati driver from the repositories. | 20:39 |
| ikonia | sonium: they are not out yet | 20:39 |
| ASULutzy | Master_Z: Shouldn't be a hard fix, do sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose-modules-`uname -r` | 20:40 |
| sonium | reaction could be faster there... | 20:40 |
| timandtom | nixnoob, er... How do I do that? :( | 20:40 |
| zelrikriando | joaopinto, hmm where can I find the source directory | 20:40 |
| MaarekStele | has anyone tried "Install inside Windows" as an option for Ubuntu? | 20:40 |
| yesitisjustme | my laptop has build in thing to connect ethernet cable and i also have a pcmcia card it gets detectedn and dongle cable lights up but yet won't connect with either build in or the card yet it always connects fine to desktop is there something i am missing? | 20:40 |
| tabularasa_ | element_, does it work? | 20:40 |
| joaopinto | zelrikriando, you did "apt-get source pidgin" ? | 20:40 |
| MaarekStele | I'd like to install it at work but wondering about performance | 20:40 |
| element_ | tabularasa_: doesnt work, i can log in but i cant see the channels i think this happened to me cause im outside from germany | 20:40 |
| * trashguy fork bombs himself | 20:40 | |
| m-c | timandtom: The next version of ubuntu will have a lot better support for that card, in October. | 20:40 |
| zelrikriando | joaopinto, yup...now I am in a pidgin folder with other folders in it | 20:41 |
| tabularasa_ | element_, i think this happens because zattoo doesn't have any supported channels for el salvador | 20:41 |
| joaopinto | zelrikriando, the source dir is the pidgin-version folder :P | 20:41 |
| nixnoob | timandtom: im not 100% sure but I believe sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-ati | 20:41 |
| Master_Z | asulutzy | 20:41 |
| timandtom | m-c, I'm still on 7.10. 8.04 didn't seem to work with my wireless card, after a few hours of trying with this channels help :( | 20:41 |
| miguelrsilva | hi. i've installed ubuntu and i understand ubutu uses GNOME. yet, on program instalation (Ass/Remove...) some KDE programs are listed. is it of to install them? if I have an option, is it better to use the GNOME app? | 20:41 |
| Master_Z | type it exactly like that? | 20:41 |
| joaopinto | nixnoob, that is the open source driver, if i am not mistaken | 20:41 |
| zelrikriando | joaopinto, ok so I am there | 20:41 |
| element_ | tabularasa_: i think that too ....but i dont understand why, cause i wanna watch the usa or spain channels | 20:41 |
| poomalai | Hi everybody. Please help me to delete a file from trash. I am not able to delete it from trash. Seems permission problem. I tried to delete it from terminal. But there is no .Trash file. I am using Hardy. Please help me.... | 20:42 |
| MaarekStele | miguelrsilva: from the login screen you can run any distro. KDE, kbuntu, or GNOME | 20:42 |
| nixnoob | timandtom: you may need to edit your /etc/X11/xorg.conf and replace the driver line that says "vesa" with "ati" | 20:42 |
| tabularasa_ | element_, i can't watch those channels too, unfortunately. | 20:42 |
| greenfishx3 | ASULutzy: the system is almost dead, so I had to stop the copying heres the paste from dmesg http://pastebin.com/m590feee5 | 20:42 |
| MaarekStele | has anyone tried "Install inside Windows" as an option for Ubuntu? | 20:42 |
| joaopinto | zelrikriando, from there, patch -p1 < path/to/the.patch/file | 20:42 |
| element_ | tabularasa_: really? | 20:42 |
| nixnoob | joaopinto: yea for that old card the open source driver is best i think. | 20:42 |
| tabularasa_ | element_, yup | 20:42 |
| element_ | tabularasa_: another livetv program? | 20:42 |
| joaopinto | MaarekStele, you are refering to wubi ? installing using wubi ? | 20:42 |
| trashguy | greenfishx3, you still cant copy your dvds? | 20:42 |
| timandtom | nixnoob, Ok, I'll try that. It says I have the latest of that thing you asked me to install. | 20:42 |
| tabularasa_ | element_, no, i don'T know any other good live tv program | 20:43 |
| MaarekStele | joaopinto: no, if you put the CD or mount the CD on windows XP, there's an option to install as a program in Windows | 20:43 |
| DJones | element_: zattoo will only let you watch channels based on your ip address, if you want the german channels, you have to have a german ip address, if you want the uk channels, you have to have a uk ip address | 20:43 |
| nixnoob | timandtom: hang on a second | 20:43 |
| addyy | why does ubuntu suck | 20:43 |
| joaopinto | MaarekStele, that is wubi | 20:43 |

| MaarekStele | joaopinto: does it have a duel boot option? just a quick question before checking the site | 20:44 |
| ASULutzy | Master_Z: You need to tell us what error. That isn't helpful | 20:44 |
| nixnoob | timandtom: is there a line that reads Driver "vesa"? | 20:44 |
| ikonia | nixnoob: that won't work on may 8.04 installs | 20:44 |
| poomalai | please somebody help me | 20:44 |

| trashguy | greenfishx3, u sure its an IDE not a SATA? | 20:45 |
| miguelrsilva | MaarekStele: but its better to stick to one interface or t doesn't matter? | 20:45 |
| MaarekStele | joaopinto: bummer, I was wondering if I could start an instance, I guess I need a vmware to do that | 20:45 |
| ASULutzy | Master_Z: Read the errors and at least try to decipher them yourself. Make sure that you don't have two package managers open at the same time. | 20:45 |
| ASULutzy | Master_Z: close synaptic, close update manager. | 20:45 |
| greenfishx3 | trashguy all of my dvds works great in mac/win, but when I engage cp -r in linux the system almost dies, yes im sure i build my own pcs | 20:45 |
| timandtom | nixnoob, yeh, under Device, for the Boardname and Driver, both are vesa | 20:45 |
| joaopinto | MaarekStele, yup, you need virtualization for that :) | 20:45 |
| nixnoob | ikonia: i dont understand quite what you mean? | 20:45 |
| unop | ikonia, xorg will try and use vesa if told to do so | 20:45 |
| poomalai | trashguy: I tried that but i am not able to find .trash file in home folder. But i can find .trash folder of other users in my computer | 20:45 |
| greenfishx3 | ASULutzy: the system is almost dead, so I had to stop the copying heres the paste from dmesg http://pastebin.com/m590feee5 | 20:46 |
| trashguy | greenfishx3, dunno man, did u try midnight commander? | 20:46 |
| ikonia | unop: yes, if told to, not by default, by default there should be no driver line | 20:46 |
| Master_Z | thanks guys | 20:46 |
| greenfishx3 | trashguy I did, and it wouldnt even cp any mountpoint I did | 20:46 |

| ASULutzy | greenfishx3: I saw it, I don't really get what's going on ;) | 20:46 |
| pablo_ | quick question | 20:46 |
| aguja | i how do i enable compiz in ubuntu 8.04?...i've got glxgears working...but when i put in the menu extra effects it does not work... any ideas??? | 20:46 |
| greenfishx3 | ASULutzy: oh okay | 20:46 |

| th0r | poomalai, try ~/.local/share/Trash | 20:46 |
| joaopinto | pablo_, open a terminal and type: man umask | 20:46 |
| zelrikriando | joaopinto, ? | 20:46 |
| joaopinto | zelrikriando, where you able to apply the patch ? | 20:47 |
| pablo_ | I have been playing around with umask but it seems permissions are substracted from 666 | 20:47 |
| pablo_ | for files | 20:47 |
| babolat | aguja: you need ccsm for the advanced effects of compiz | 20:47 |
| Master_Z | another problem | 20:47 |
| unop | ikonia, hmm, well, i wouldn't assume that -- the person could have upgraded from gutsy or a previous install where xorg used a xorg.conf with a driver specified | 20:47 |
| nixnoob | timandtom: you need to change the Driver line to "ati" instead of "vesa" | 20:47 |
| Master_Z | I installed VisualBoyAdvance but I dont see it anywhere | 20:47 |
| miguelrsilva | if i use apps from different interface packages, i have to login into different modes to access them? | 20:47 |
| ferronica | ikonia: i dont know why hardy not much better | 20:47 |
| === arashO|brb is now known as arashO|o | ||
| pablo_ | it would seem is impossible to have files with execute permissions by default | 20:47 |

| greenfishx3 | oh well thanks anyways ASULutzy, trashguy I guess I have to live with it :( | 20:47 |
| timandtom | nixnoob, ok :D Is that it? And JUST the driver line, or boardname as well? | 20:47 |
| ASULutzy | Master_Z: Whatever happened to our virtualbox issue.... | 20:47 |
| ikonia | ferronica: what is that comment meant to mean ? | 20:47 |
| ikonia | unop: not assuming anything, hence why I said "most situations" | 20:47 |
| poomalai | th0r: thanks for the hint. I will try that now. | 20:47 |
| element_ | any wine expert here? | 20:47 |
| Master_Z | asulutzy: resolved, :) | 20:47 |
| pablo_ | joaopinto: umask 022 gives you 644 files | 20:47 |
| zelrikriando | joaopinto, no | 20:48 |
| nixnoob | timandtom: just the driver line, may sure you edit the file using sudo and save it, then restart your X server by ctrl+alt+backspace | 20:48 |

| tarelerulz | I wanted to use vmware to run xp inside of Ubuntu . How much space does xp really need ? | 21:08 |
| Condoulo | around 4-6GB? o-O I think | 21:08 |
| joaopinto | tarelerulz, depends on what you plan to install over it | 21:08 |
| rand0m | m-c: not really sure how to do that heh.. i dont wanna kill my brothers laptop | 21:08 |
| m-c | DeFirence: Uninstall pidgin - maybe try a reinstall of it | 21:09 |
| Condoulo | of course I'd give it 10GB to be safe if you want to run heavy apps in it. | 21:09 |
| nixnoob | m-c: if hes trying to dual boot i read that vista has to be resized from within the vista OS and cannot be properly resized through ubuntu | 21:09 |
| joaopinto | nixnoob, that is not true | 21:09 |
| ASULutzy | DeFirence: I've never heard of anything like what you're describing, did you fiddle with a bunchof plugins and addons for pidgin? | 21:09 |
| Z1d | icq doesn`t work in RUSSIA :( | 21:09 |
| m-c | rand0m - oh, you are trying to dual boot a windows box? | 21:09 |

| daYZman-w | does anyone know why Xorg has about an 20% CPU when i just surf the web? | 21:10 |
| tarelerulz | joaopinto, all I want from window is the ability to run yahoo messenger that is what I am going to use vmware for that. | 21:10 |
| m-c | rand0m: I know nothing about vista. You'll have to ask someone else, because I am stuck. | 21:10 |
| fprefect | lenix_: are you sure? can you paste the mac-address or do a lsmod? | 21:10 |
| joaopinto | tarelerulz, have you tried it with wine :P ? | 21:11 |
| nixnoob | rand0m: im not sure if this is correct and joaopinto says im wrong but i read somewhere that vista has to be resized from within vista itself not from ubuntu | 21:11 |
| lenix_ | the mac address of the pci card? | 21:11 |

| lenix_ | fprefect, could the fix for that e1000 card maybe fix my problem ? or they're not related? | 21:13 |
| nixnoob | Buckeye: maybe what i read was for an older version of *buntu | 21:13 |

| tarelerulz | I like java becuase it is cross platform ,but every I have use that use it seem to have problems . Like azueus works great for months then out of the blue it will crash and the same with iplist. Java based app I seem to break some how | 21:33 |
| ilembitov | TheDarkAura: I can't. It's a laptop and I don't have an external HDD drive | 21:33 |
| daYZman-w | CorbinFox, hmm ok | 21:33 |
| MichaelDK | hi. i have added an extra harddisk in my pc. i have erased it with partition editor. and i can mount it. but i cant read or write. is there an program there can do this | 21:33 |
| wolfeySI | daYZman-w: you need binary drivers for nvidea or ati to use newer graphic cards | 21:33 |
| snova | ilembitov: are you sure you can't? how much space does it take up? | 21:34 |
| ilembitov | TheDarkAura: 65 gigs | 21:34 |
| m-c | overlordpuppy: Yes, then, it is on that matrix. Here is some more information about configuring it, for advanced ubuntu users (not supported). Otherwise, it will be in the default 8.10 release: http://www.phoronix.com/forums/showthread.php?s=844e52238b85865d489a98d68b85e322&t=9951 | 21:34 |
| wolfeySI | :) | 21:34 |
| gordonjcp | argh | 21:34 |
| snova | ilembitov: i understand you don't have somewhere to put it, but storage is cheap. plus, you can use it in the future for backups and such | 21:34 |
| gordonjcp | die, pulseaudio, DIE! | 21:34 |
| joebob777as7 | I want to set up remote printing? is there an easy way to do that without setting up a vpn? if not is there an easy way to set up a vpn? | 21:34 |
| wolfeySI | joebob777as7: print from what OS to what OS? | 21:34 |
| TheDarkAura | sudo /say ilembitov well, you could use a USB device right? or network it to a system that has the room and dump a copy there, or just go with the swap partition idea -- but it seams pretty risky if its data you are trying to keep | 21:34 |
| wolfeySI | joebob777as7: for linux, you use cups | 21:34 |
| wolfeySI | for windows printing on linux you use samba+cups | 21:35 |
| wolfeySI | for linux printing on windows no idea:) | 21:35 |
| joebob777as7 | wolfeySI internet printing | 21:35 |
| ilembitov | snova: Is it so risky - what I am talking about? Can't a /home partition be resized? Or should I arrange an LVM thing? | 21:35 |
| wolfeySI | joebob777as7: yes? | 21:35 |
| kevinm__ | im looking to upgrade my MINI PCI wifi card to an atheros based card, any suggestions, i want something that will be better than an intel pro/wireless 2200 | 21:35 |
| joebob777as7 | wolfeySI, I can set up an internet printer with cups? | 21:36 |
| jarco | why o why is the new ubuntu so slow with windows? | 21:36 |
| snova | ilembitov: some filesystems can't be resized easily. ntfs might be one of them (at least for making it smaller) | 21:36 |
| Josdell | HI can someone tell me what happened here http://pastebin.com/d5cb4e698 I was trying to compile cdrkit-1.1.8, it's near the end when it tries to make on genisoimage | 21:36 |
| sun01tech | anybody know about any issue with configuring static ip address for wired network connected and after reboots problem with DNS using browsers...after i change the ip address it works..but when i reboot again..it doesnt work and i need to change the ip again.. | 21:36 |
| wolfeySI | joebob777as7: well if linux wants to print over internet (TCP/IP) to linux server, no problem, cups does that and you probably have cups by default on ubuntu | 21:36 |
| jarco | since my install to the new ubuntu its 4kb/s every protocol i try ... | 21:36 |
| snova | ilembitov: if you have a fast internet connection, you can upload your stuff somewhere | 21:36 |
| joaopinto | ntfs can be resized without problems and long you defrag it | 21:37 |
| joebob777as7 | wolfeySI what port on my firewall do I open? | 21:37 |
| ilembitov | Snova: I already have enough unallocated space for linux partitions, so the ntfs partition doesn't need to be resized | 21:37 |
| ziggy_ | kevin, what do you want from the card? | 21:37 |
| ilembitov | snova: I want to resize an ext3 partition | 21:37 |
| kevinm__ | ziggy: high sensitivity, comparable to the intel card | 21:37 |
| wolfeySI | joebob777as7: 631 | 21:37 |
| snova | ilembitov: i don't know how this is done, but it's possible. i'm not sure what your question is anymore. | 21:37 |
| gorgg | how can i open .rar-packages? | 21:37 |
| joaopinto | !rar | gorgg | 21:38 |
| ubottu | gorgg: rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free | 21:38 |
| ziggy_ | kevin, you sure you want a mini pci? | 21:38 |
| jarco | is it a knows problem that the new ubuntu (8.04) is very slow to windows computers? didnt have the problem with earlyer versions ... | 21:38 |
| joebob777as7 | wolfeySI thx I'll give it a try | 21:38 |
| snova | ilembitov: your original question is quite possible. how much extra space do you have? | 21:38 |
| wolfeySI | joebob777as7: then on cups on client side, you add remote printer as | 21:38 |
| ilembitov | snova: I was just asking, whether it's possible to resize a /home partition after I install Ubuntu | 21:38 |
| kevinm__ | i know about other options like usb, pcmcia etc, but i would like to have a card inside my thinkpad at all times | 21:38 |
| joaopinto | jarco, it is not a general problem, do you have the correct video driver installed ? | 21:38 |
| ilembitov | snova: 80 gigs | 21:38 |
| wolfeySI | ipp://ip/printers/printername | 21:38 |
| wolfeySI | something like that | 21:38 |
| snova | ilembitov: yes, you can | 21:38 |
| snova | ilembitov: i just don't know how | 21:38 |
| spoon_man | !gpart | ilembitov | 21:38 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about gpart | 21:38 |
| ilembitov | snova: how about GParted? | 21:39 |
| spoon_man | hm | 21:39 |
| snova | ilembitov: is the free space at the beginning or the end? | 21:39 |
| kevinm__ | ziggy: having a mini pci card using internal atenna allow me a lot more mobility | 21:39 |
| jarco | yes joaopinto | 21:39 |
| spoon_man | !gparted | 21:39 |
| ubottu | gparted is a !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php | 21:39 |
| snova | ilembitov: there are several partitioning programs | 21:39 |
| ilembitov | OK, I guess it's possible then. | 21:39 |
| `Zigosity | Hey guys, quick question.. Trying to install 8.04 on my new PC, and the partitioner doesn't seem to recognize the HDD. It's a new WD 300gig Raptor (SATA, obv.), are those not supported right now or something? | 21:39 |
| wolfeySI | joebob777as7: ipp://ip/printers/printername that's remote printer in cups | 21:39 |
| ilembitov | Thanks to all of you | 21:39 |
| ziggy_ | kevin, you really feel a usb nub is gonna take away mobility? | 21:39 |
| joaopinto | ilembitov, if your ext3 partition is in use, you will need to use the live cd | 21:39 |
| === jconn|working is now known as jconnolly | ||
| ziggy_ | im only saying, that you might consider something that can use an external ant. | 21:40 |
| gnr | anyone here managed to record in audacity? im trying to record from my vinyl decks to my laptop | 21:40 |
| ilembitov | joaopinto: And if it's /home partition (I'll make separate / and /home partitions | 21:40 |
| ilembitov | ? | 21:40 |
| Intrepid | I have a dual-screen setup. The desktop icons appear on the left screen (nautilus). Is there a way to limit them to the right screen? | 21:40 |
| joaopinto | ilembitov, you will need the live cd... :) | 21:40 |
| ilembitov | joaopinto: Damn) | 21:40 |
| Josdell | hi, can someone help me to Compile cdrkit-1.1.8 | 21:40 |
| kevinm__ | ziggy: if i go the usb route i would probably want an external antenna which would take away mobility | 21:40 |
| joaopinto | Josdell, what do you need to know ? | 21:41 |
| tyberion | hello....:) | 21:41 |
| spoon_man | `Zigosity, are you getting any error messages? does the drive show up in the BIOS? | 21:41 |
| tyberion | anyone able to tell me where I can find the guide on howto install acroread? | 21:41 |
| snova | ilembitov: log in as root, unmount /home, and use whatever partitioning program you want to expand it | 21:41 |
| kevinm__ | i really wish i could find a card like the intel 2200 that was using an atheros chip, but i have had no such luck | 21:41 |
| m-c | `Zigosity: hard to think why a basic sata drive would not be seen by parted | 21:41 |
| gnr | I have a "headphone as line out" is it possible to change to "headphone as line in" ?? | 21:42 |
| snova | ilembitov: /home can't be resized while its mounted, but all the tools you need to modify it are on / | 21:42 |
| jarco | is it a knows problem that the new ubuntu (8.04) is very slow to windows computers? didnt have the problem with earlyer versions ... | 21:42 |

| === Bash is now known as guest | ||
| `Zigosity | m-c: Yeah, really. -_-. | 21:42 |
| webcamwonder | tyberion: You don't need Adobe Reader, it is a bloated piece of software | 21:42 |
| joaopinto | tyberion, ubuntu includes a pdf reader, you shouldn't need the one from adobe | 21:42 |
| ziggy_ | kevin, look into alfa usb | 21:42 |
| tyberion | snova: uhrm, Isnt there a guide for installing? | 21:42 |
| wolfeySI | daYZman-w: System/administration/Hardware Drivers | 21:42 |
| Josdell | joapinto: i just need some help | 21:43 |
| ziggy_ | the ant. is screw on, shouldnt affect mobility any | 21:43 |
| Julia_ | I'm having trouble installing my graphics drivers. I have an ASUS G1SN with an nvidia 9500M GS. The restricted drivers don't work, so I have to use the beta drivers. I'm unable to install the beta drivers. | 21:43 |
| tyberion | joaopinto: whats the command for the included pdf reader? | 21:43 |

| === guest is now known as Guest11181 | ||
| joaopinto | Julia_, have you tried with envyng ? | 21:43 |
| funkyHat | !medibuntu | tyberion | 21:43 |
| ubottu | tyberion: medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org | 21:43 |
| kevinm__ | ziggy: the point is that if i want to move around, i gotta hold on to the laptop and all this extra stuff, i dont want to do that, id rather just have hte laptop | 21:43 |
| funkyHat | tyberion: adobe reader will be available in synaptic if you add the medibuntu repository (instructions on the site) | 21:43 |
| kevinm__ | and if im in a public place it makes my intentions all the more obvious | 21:43 |
| Josdell | joapinto: when I type sudo make i get this http://pastebin.com/d5cb4e698 (look at the end for the errors) | 21:44 |
| spoon_man | `Zigosity, I dunno, I haven't heard of that problem -- you might want to try posting a thread over at ubuntuforums.org | 21:44 |
| tyberion | funkyHat: thanks alot | 21:44 |
| Julia_ | joaopinto: no. How do I do that? | 21:44 |
| `Zigosity | spoon_man: Guess I'll go do that. Thanks anyway =). | 21:44 |
| tyberion | funkyHat: whats the command I run the normal pdf reader that comes with ubuntu? | 21:44 |
| PseudoBob | I wish I knew Tom Hanks. | 21:44 |
| daYZman-w | wolfeySI, i'm using gutsy and the driver name is "nvidia" | 21:44 |
| joaopinto | Josdell, apt-cache search zlib dev (you need the zlib dev package) | 21:44 |
| daYZman-w | is that the binary driver? | 21:44 |
| flott1 | knows everyone what goes on with the icq servers? | 21:45 |
| MichaelDK | trying agin. :) how can i auto mount a 2. harddisk. now i cant read or write | 21:45 |
| joaopinto | Julia_, install the envygng-gtk package | 21:45 |
| spoon_man | tyberion, just open the PDF file and the reader should open it automagically | 21:45 |
| joaopinto | then run envyng-gtk from the terminal | 21:45 |
| wolfeySI | daYZman-w: no idea, but you want nvidea driver if you want real acceleration, opensource isnt that good:) | 21:45 |
| * wolfeySI uses ATI :) | 21:45 | |
| funkyHat | tyberion: the normal pdf viewer in ubuntu is called evince I think | 21:45 |
| joaopinto | envyng will get the latest driver, compile and install | 21:45 |
| wolfeySI | daYZman-w: there are nvidea fans around:) | 21:45 |
| kevinm__ | ziggy; any other ideas? | 21:45 |
| daYZman-w | ok thanks | 21:45 |
| Julia_ | thanks joaopinto | 21:45 |
| m-c | "nv" is the open nvidia driver | 21:46 |

| * wolfeySI doesnt have any issues with 'free/non-free'. whatever works good and i dont pay for it is free and good enough for me | 21:46 | |
| tore | jokka: valknut | 21:46 |
| joaopinto | nv is not good if you need 3d | 21:46 |
| dotech | joaopinto: i got it to work with 32-bit :) | 21:47 |
| jokka | tore, <3 | 21:47 |
| joaopinto | dotech, :) | 21:47 |
| dotech | thanks for the help anyway hehe | 21:47 |
| epp | you need proprietary for 3d. | 21:47 |
| wolfeySI | free drivers are good if you use openoffice | 21:47 |
| dotech | as long as it works im happy | 21:47 |
| Josdell | joapinto: I couldnt find the package | 21:47 |
| wolfeySI | but they suck even for video not to mention 3d games | 21:47 |
| tore | jokka: nå | 21:47 |
| tore | np* | 21:47 |
| m-c | wolfeySI: I hear apple makes some nice closed drivers for their unix operating system | 21:47 |
| joaopinto | Josdell, zlib1g-dev | 21:47 |
| epp | proprietary is always faster. but some things arent supported | 21:47 |
| wolfeySI | m-c apple is awfully cute, but i cant afford one:) | 21:47 |
| Josdell | joapinto: thanks | 21:47 |
| joaopinto | and its joao, not joa :P | 21:47 |
| gnr | anyone here managed to record in audacity? im trying to record from my vinyl decks to my laptop | 21:48 |
| spoon_man | m-c, technically OSX is more based on BSD and NeXT | 21:48 |
| wolfeySI | spoon_man: yup | 21:48 |
| Josdell | joapinto: couldnt find the package | 21:48 |
| Julia_ | woah. Codeimp was here? | 21:48 |
| m-c | spoon_man: from NeXT yes, not BSD, but regardless, it is certified UNIX | 21:48 |
| Josdell | joapinto: sorry :) | 21:48 |
| joaopinto | epp, actually proprietary supports features which are not available on the open source, not the way around | 21:48 |

| wolfeySI | tyberion: LyX perhaps is ok for latex too | 21:49 |
| tyberion | wolfeySI: thanx alot=) | 21:50 |

| joaopinto | Josdell, I am assuming you are using hardy | 21:50 |
| wolfeySI | mint_: one easy way is to use 'screen' | 21:50 |
| jarco | is there ann apllication option or command in ubuntu/linux to measure the network speed to another host? | 21:50 |
| joaopinto | mint_, nohup command & | 21:50 |

| joaopinto | jarco, ftp :) ? | 21:51 |
| vasily | hello somebody | 21:51 |
| jarco | lol | 21:51 |
| Josdell | joaopinto: yes | 21:51 |
| jarco | i mean like speedtest | 21:51 |
| joaopinto | wolfeySI, screen is not required to run an app on the background | 21:51 |
| mint_ | oh ok thanks i'll install screen and try it | 21:51 |
| joaopinto | and it will not work for a gui app | 21:51 |
| jarco | couse obviusly i have problems transferring data :D | 21:51 |
| m-c | daYZman-w: you will want to use the restricted driver System -> Admin -> Hardware Drivers | 21:51 |
| wolfeySI | joaopinto: oh ok:) | 21:51 |
| wolfeySI | joaopinto: i started with linux as remote irc tool, so screen is my friend:) | 21:51 |

| joaopinto | vasily, yes, but we have no answer for you | 21:52 |
| === Maarek is now known as MaarekStele | ||
| joaopinto | gorgg, you need sudo before the command | 21:52 |
| joaopinto | !sudo | gorgg | 21:52 |
| ubottu | gorgg: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome), or !kdesu (KDE) | 21:52 |

| solexious | [Q] How can i monitor how much data traffic i have used over a network interface? | 21:52 |
| jarco | ubuntu has any known speed problems with wireless? | 21:52 |

| c0nfl|ct | fritou o miolo | 21:52 |
| YuriQ | !ssh-agent | 21:53 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about ssh-agent | 21:53 |
| vasily | joaopinto: is my problem very difficult? | 21:53 |
| Josdell | joaopinto: will try again | 21:53 |
| joaopinto | solexious, I guess you can check that with netstat | 21:53 |
| m-c | MichaelDK How are you trying to mount it? | 21:53 |
| joaopinto | vasily, for me yes :P | 21:53 |
| YuriQ | ok. How do I run ssh-agent so that it integrates with my gnome session? | 21:53 |
| MichaelDK | clikking on it | 21:53 |
| wolfeySI | usb mic? | 21:53 |
| MaarekStele | gorgg: you can almost turn off sudo by activating root. It's pretty easy, root is there, but there is no password. Activate the password for root and you won't have to sudo for maintenance | 21:53 |
| YuriQ | when I do ssh-add it says "can't connect to authenticating agent" | 21:53 |
| joaopinto | MaarekStele, that is not recommended !!! | 21:53 |
| wolfeySI | joaopinto: i knew somebody would say that:) | 21:53 |
| joaopinto | YuriQ, was ssh-agent started ? | 21:54 |
| MichaelDK | i was in the machine when i made an newinstall | 21:54 |
| MaarekStele | joaopinto: you've got a point, but you have to maintain the sudo for the other users and limit their use of it | 21:54 |
| engineer | vasily yep, your system is fucked up pretty bad | 21:54 |
| manchicken | Anybody having trouble getting calendars to sync using gnome-pilot lately? | 21:54 |
| MichaelDK | um IT was in the machine | 21:54 |
| wolfeySI | mmm dont all soundcards have microphone or line in? | 21:54 |
| YuriQ | joaopinto: no, that's my question actually - where's the right place to start ssh-agent so that he whole Gnome session is aware of it? | 21:54 |
| joaopinto | MaarekStele, root is not required for that.. I don't see your point | 21:54 |
| wolfeySI | it's just some AC97 cards can switch if mic is actually second stereo out | 21:54 |
| YuriQ | is there a GUI component to this, or some script> | 21:55 |
| joaopinto | YuriQ, on .bashrc IIRC, better check google, there are some nice tutorials on how to setup the ssh keys chaintool | 21:55 |
| joaopinto | YuriQ, it must be started from a user login script | 21:55 |
| wolfeySI | and of course you need real microphone with amplifier for 10 euros, not cheap ones for 2 | 21:55 |
| `Zigosity | Oh, and another question; I'm trying to access another ubuntu box I have via VNC, everything is enabled and set up properly, but it gives me a "failed to connect" error every time I try. Any ideas? | 21:55 |
| wolfeySI | :) | 21:55 |
| tore | YuriQ: .xinitrc | 21:55 |
| tore | YuriQ: http://en.opensuse.org/Using_ssh-agent_globally_for_X_session | 21:56 |
| Josdell | joaopinto: I got it, now what do I do? | 21:56 |
| MaarekStele | joaopinto: you can edit the scripting for sudo, if not done right, the other users will have access the same as you do (the admin) | 21:56 |
| joaopinto | `Zigosity, that means vnc is not running, or is not bind to the external IP address you need to connect to, or you have a firewall blocking it | 21:56 |
| joaopinto | MaarekStele, sudo is only required for admins, if you want regular users just keep them out of the admin group :) | 21:56 |
| m-c | MaarekStele: One of the advantages of Ubuntu is that it can be used without doing what you described, which is potentially dangerous and a security risk | 21:57 |
| sun01tec1 | is the loopback "iface lo inet loopback" suppose to be in the network/interfaces file? before eth0 | 21:57 |
| joaopinto | sun01tec1, yes | 21:57 |

| joaopinto | wolfeySI, not usually but it depends on you use both ,usually sudo is used for specific commands, while "su"/root for entire root sessions | 21:58 |
| soup12 | nano_: put it in a while loop that never evaluates to true | 21:58 |
| joaopinto | on how | 21:58 |

| joaopinto | Josdell, can't be, it must be a different error :) | 21:59 |
| wolfeySI | sun01tec1: you can do sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 21:59 |
| joaopinto | I mean the cause, not the result | 22:00 |
| wolfeySI | sun01tec1: no need to reboot | 22:00 |

| m-c | daYZman-w: Check Synaptic Package Manager | 22:00 |
| joaopinto | nano_, yes, nohup means not to hangup when you close the terminal, & means run in the background | 22:00 |

| joaopinto | to not hangup | 22:00 |

| webcamwonder | mint_ Press alt+f2 for "run" commands | 22:07 |

| witriew | wolfeySI: i wish i could use grub, but that would be really convoluted to boot a CD into syslinux, into grub, then start gfxboot | 22:07 |
| wolfeySI | mint_: you can just do 'evince hello.pdf &' | 22:07 |
| Josdell | joaopinto: thanks it worked, thanks so much | 22:07 |
| joaopinto | mint_, you should have read my answer: nohup application & | 22:07 |
| wolfeySI | but then evince will close if you close terminal window | 22:07 |
| joaopinto | Josdell, np :) | 22:07 |

| spanther | Blais1: Envy really owns i use it too and it works 100% out of the box :) | 22:27 |
| CeBe | anybody here who runs compiz with custom effects on hardy? | 22:27 |
| CeBe | my problem: i can not choose the custom because it's gone | 22:27 |

| Danish989 | im trying to send files on my laptop through my fone, using blueetooth and bluetooth is turned on but it keeps saying sending failed on my fone | 22:27 |
| spoon_man | Blais1, EnvyNG can be obtained through Synaptic | 22:27 |
| Paddy_EIRE | ok... | 22:27 |
| spanther | Blais1: for gnome desktop you install "engyng-gtk" :) | 22:28 |

| aboremaz | hi | 22:29 |
| StephenZ | Bah. Crash. Anyone know how to mount a drive so that it mounts when I boot up? | 22:29 |
| Paddy_EIRE | StephenZ https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Fstab | 22:29 |
| R2LM | witriew: Whew... 61 pages worth? :) I guess I could go through that, but I would need to look through most of the pages to find what might have changed for Hardy, since the original tutorial was posted via 2006. | 22:30 |
| Blais1 | spoon_man, spanther, if I end up with a black screen I'll be very upset :( | 22:30 |
| aboremaz | would you please tell me how to fix wireless problems | 22:30 |
| witriew | R2LM: i doubt anything would have changed for Hardy | 22:30 |
| CeBe | StephenZ: /etc/fstab | 22:30 |
| witriew | R2LM: the first post should help you about modifying what you need to | 22:30 |
| Paddy_EIRE | aboremaz, a little bit more specific please.... kinda like asking a mechanic to fix your car and that the metal thing is broken | 22:30 |
| aboremaz | HELLO | 22:31 |
| witriew | R2LM: mainly, grub and gfxboot haven't changed much since 2006 :) | 22:31 |
| StephenZ | Paddy_EIRE: I'm not sure how helpful this page is. Or, rather, I'm not sure how much I'm going to get out of it. I don't have the faintest idea what I'm doing. | 22:31 |
| Blais1 | spoon_man, Envy only has version 8.4 though, I want to use 8.6 | 22:31 |
| aboremaz | I NEED TO ASK YOU ABOUT MY PROBLM PLEAAAz | 22:31 |

| Paddy_EIRE | StephanZ if you can read that page will do fine :) | 22:31 |
| StephenZ | Right. I'll give it a shot... Hopefully I won't hose anything. | 22:32 |
| Paddy_EIRE | aboremaz, you already got an answer | 22:32 |
| R2LM | witriew: Fair enough, BTW have you used gfxboot? Did you follow that tutorial? | 22:32 |
| the_eraser | !ask | aboremaz | 22:32 |
| ubottu | aboremaz: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 22:32 |

| witriew | R2LM: yeah, i've used it; in fact, i'm trying to get it working for iso/syslinux but there isn't much documentation about integrating with that | 22:33 |
| witriew | R2LM: that's why i'm in here :) | 22:33 |

| aboremaz | ok thanks | 22:34 |
| Blais1 | spoon_man, envy gave an error during it's driver installation, :S | 22:34 |
| R2LM | witriew: Thanks for the help. And just out of curiosity, what do you mean by iso/syslinux? ISO files are usually CD images I thought--are you mounting a linux CD image or something? | 22:35 |
| Paddy_EIRE | !pm | StephenZ | 22:35 |
| ubottu | StephenZ: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit AND help you. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first, some find it rude. | 22:35 |
| StephenZ | Ah. | 22:35 |
| StephenZ | That's fair, sorry. | 22:35 |
| StephenZ | How do I open fstab as root? | 22:35 |

| R2LM | StephenZ: gksudo gedit /etc/fstab | 22:36 |

| aguyhere | hi, how can assign a firefox mouse button (thumb button). I searched and only found out of date stuff | 22:37 |
| StephenZ | Huh. This time it worked. | 22:37 |
| unop | StephenZ, not just fstab tho, it has to be /etc/fstab | 22:37 |
| witriew | R2LM: you would need to configure isolinux to load grub, and then use grub to load isolinux | 22:37 |
| StephenZ | Yeah, I did that properly. | 22:37 |
| StephenZ | But apparently I missed a letter; this one worked. | 22:37 |
| witriew | R2LM: and that's far too convoluted since ubuntu/suse use isolinux+gfxboot without the grub | 22:37 |

| R2LM | witriew: Gee the recursion makes my head spin. :) Good luck with finding a solution to your problem. :) | 22:38 |
| witriew | R2LM: and the documentation for gfxboot isn't thorough enough to provide me with details on how construction of a gfxboot file works | 22:38 |

| quio | Hello. I have Been using Ubuntu for a few years now and am curently using 7.10 Gutsy. I have a Dell 510 that has run this without a problem for a while. All of a sudden however when I boot up into Ubuntu my Wireless card light will not go on. It does if I switch hard drives and use XP however. Any suggestions please? | 22:45 |
| Lunar_Lamp | quio: does the wireless card work, but hte light just not come on? | 22:45 |
| Petskull | Help! How do I erase my iPod? | 22:45 |
| ASULutzy | Petskull: sudo apt-get install gtkpod | 22:46 |
| Gromit_ | microwave! | 22:46 |
| ASULutzy | quio: I installed Intrepid last night and I had something similar happened. Intrepid found drivers for my wireless out of the box, but my light stayed off | 22:46 |
| quio | <Lunar_Lamp> The card works fine. I think somehow it got turned off. If you hit the windows key and the wireless f2 button it should go on but it doesn't. | 22:46 |
| Petskull | I installed from .debs | 22:47 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Petskull, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPod | 22:47 |
| Petskull | ... but rythmbox now lists nothing in my ipod | 22:47 |
| xczsacsz | hey guys i am back (though who remember me) | 22:47 |
| ASULutzy | Petskull: Just open a terminal and type gtkpod | 22:47 |
| xczsacsz | I still have the same problem though | 22:47 |
| Lunar_Lamp | quio: so the problem is solely with the light? I had a card that had lights that acted differently under linux - that is, the light being on/off displayed different things. e.g. it was one when receiving data, so it would flicker when in use rather than just be on when the card was activated. | 22:47 |
| Petskull | in nautilus, I can see lots of mp3s in /media/IPOD/iPod_Control/Music | 22:47 |
| Petskull | ... but I'm concerned that deleting them will mess up my iPod | 22:48 |
| regeya | shoot, I forgot to post on the forums my experiences getting stuff working great with my sansa fuze. :-? | 22:48 |
| psycose | I'm looking for a gcc-4.3 for Ubuntu hardy i386, seems that gcc-snapshot does it, but apt also want to install lot's of *amd64 packages, my auestion is why ? thanks | 22:48 |
| * regeya does that | 22:48 | |
| quio | <Lunar_Lamp>Like now the light should be on but I don't know how to get it activated while in Ubuntu. I can't connect with the wireless either. When I switch Hard drives and boot from XP it comes on and works right away. | 22:48 |
| ASULutzy | Petskull: Don't delete the files from there. Run gtkpod. it's got a great interface for managing your ipod. | 22:48 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Petskull, no it wont.. it will wipe it.. then on next power on the folders are recreated to defaults | 22:48 |
| Lunar_Lamp | Ah, so the card fails to work? Right, so the issue is probably not with the light per se. | 22:49 |
| Hybrid666` | hi | 22:49 |
| xczsacsz | i installed ubuntu and i cant set my visual effects to the bottom selection from three | 22:49 |
| Petskull | I got gtkpod | 22:49 |
| xczsacsz | it says i need a restricted driver | 22:49 |
| Petskull | it doesn't recognize my ipod | 22:49 |
| xczsacsz | i have a Nvidia Ge force 7500le | 22:49 |
| Hybrid666` | ive installed ubuntu, it also sayd it installs grub, but no grub popps up at startup. ive installed it on the first HDD drive, so MBR should have been written correctly. | 22:49 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Petskull, if you have the new nano (a1236) then you will have a hard time with getting it to work | 22:49 |
| quio | <Lunar_Lamp> I think so. This happened once before and then all of a sudden it came back on while in Ubuntu. I don't know what I did. | 22:49 |
| Lunar_Lamp | Petskull: system>administration>restricted driver | 22:49 |
| Petskull | uh oh | 22:49 |
| Hybrid666` | why doesnt it work? | 22:49 |
| Petskull | I do have it | 22:50 |
| Sylphid|work | anyone know of an app that will open a notification in Xwindows on an ssh login | 22:50 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Petskull, well it will still recreate the folders | 22:50 |
| Petskull | what do I do? | 22:50 |
| Petskull | delte all the folders in /media/IPOD/iPod_Control/Music | 22:50 |
| Petskull | ? | 22:50 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Petskull, it will just be nightmarish getting it to work on linux | 22:50 |
| xczsacsz | i cant connect to the internet either cause it doesnt alow me to install my wireless modem | 22:50 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Petskull, I use windows 2000 in a vm for my ipods | 22:51 |
| xczsacsz | can anyone help me....? | 22:51 |
| wolfeySI | xczsacsz: ? is your hardware supported? | 22:51 |
| hustle | does anyone know, how can I check the GPU clock on a T60 Thinkpad with Ubuntu 8.04. | 22:51 |
| Hybrid666` | ive installed ubuntu, it also sayd it installs grub, but no grub popps up at startup. ive installed it on the first HDD drive, so MBR should have been written correctly. | 22:51 |
| Petskull | I'm seeing an empty iPod on gtkpod | 22:51 |
| xczsacsz | it picks up my graphics card as nvidia_new | 22:51 |
| Hybrid666` | but it doesnt show up | 22:51 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Petskull, it would be wise to erase those folders anyway to give you a fresh slate | 22:52 |
| SpookyET | Hi. Where can I find the list of packages installed on default Ubuntu installation? I'd like to compare it with my current installation. Thanks. | 22:52 |
| wolfeySI | xczsacsz: i mean your wireless modem:) | 22:52 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Petskull, read the ipod nano part of this guide people have had much success with it http://lilserenity.wordpress.com/2007/12/22/virgin-mobile-praise-ubuntu-and-ipod-nano-3g/ | 22:53 |
| Petskull | oh- I saw this | 22:53 |
| Petskull | I'll delete it and pray | 22:53 |
| Hybrid666` | ive installed ubuntu a few mins ago, but on boot, grub doesnt show up, ive installed it on the primary hard drive @ sda3...what have i done wrong? | 22:53 |
| xczsacsz | i have no idead wolfySI | 22:53 |
| linkslice | anyone in here running zimbra zcs on 8.04? | 22:53 |
| wolfeySI | xczsacsz: 'dmesg | less' and see what your kernel recognizes | 22:54 |
| wolfeySI | or what is in /dev/eth0 /dev/eth1 ? | 22:54 |
| xczsacsz | i dont know how to do that.. and i am not on ubuntu at the moment | 22:54 |
| moo_cow | would anybody mind putting their ubuntu /etc/profile on a pastebin? im trying to setup sudo in another distro | 22:54 |
| arooni-mobile | can i simply remove pulseaudoi its giving me problmes | 22:55 |
| wolfeySI | i told you commands xczsacsz | 22:55 |
| hustle | does anyone know, how can I check the GPU clock on a T60 Thinkpad with Ubuntu 8.04. | 22:55 |
| manchicken | I'm having a really hard time getting my centro to sync with evolution. | 22:55 |
| Hybrid666` | hustle look @ /proc | 22:55 |
| hustle | thanks 4 help | 22:55 |
| gordonjcp | gaaaaah pulseaudio! | 22:55 |
| hustle | ok | 22:55 |
| gordonjcp | DIE! | 22:55 |
| Hybrid666` | somewhere in /proc it may be | 22:55 |
| wolfeySI | xczsacsz: another thing if you dont have option to use wireless in gnome network manager, it is probably cause it is listed as 'auto' in /etc/network/interfaces and Gnome Network Manager leaves that alone | 22:55 |
| wolfeySI | xczsacsz: it's confusing thing :) | 22:55 |
| hustle | Hybrid666`: i found cpuinfo | 22:56 |
| hustle | but not somethink like gpuinfo | 22:56 |
| danidfg_ | xczsacsz try ndisgtk and install an win driver for yor wireless | 22:56 |
| gordonjcp | how on earth can I stop pulseaudio from getting in my way? | 22:56 |
| moo_cow | i need an ubuntu /etc/profile. someone please paste here http://codepad.org/ | 22:56 |
| xczsacsz | yeah it is very confusing | 22:56 |
| hustle | i have already looked there | 22:56 |
| wolfeySI | moo_cow: a moment | 22:56 |
| gordonjcp | should I just upgrade to gutsy? | 22:56 |
| xczsacsz | i myt aswel create the operating system haha | 22:56 |
| wolfeySI | moo_cow: http://www.wolfey.si/tmp/profile mine | 22:56 |
| moo_cow | wobblywu-> thanks | 22:57 |
| wolfeySI | moo_cow: /etc/profile | 22:57 |
| xczsacsz | anyway.. is there a way to download updates for my graphics card off a website for ubuntu with out editing commands in ubuntu just by installing a software package with drivers in them | 22:57 |
| moo_cow | does ubuntu make every user have the same path??? | 22:57 |
| Lichte | Hi all | 22:57 |
| gordonjcp | moo_cow: in what sense? | 22:57 |
| hustle | Hybrid666`: Is it possible that I don't see s.th. because I have an onboard chip (Intel GMA....) | 22:57 |
| tyberion | Can anyone tell me an easy way how to activate java in firefox? =( | 22:58 |
| Paddy_EIRE | xczsacsz, maybe you should stick with windows | 22:58 |
| moo_cow | gordonjcp-> if you add a new user to an ubuntu system. will it have the same path as the default user | 22:58 |
| Lichte | Anyone know how to get the MTP plugin to work with Rhythmbox ??? | 22:58 |
| xczsacsz | "restricted Drivers" | 22:58 |
| Paddy_EIRE | xczsacsz, or try envy | 22:58 |
| tyberion | Or howto make firefox run java applications...? | 22:58 |
| gordonjcp | moo_cow: yes, of course | 22:58 |
| simotempler | hi there - anyone know if there is a program for ubuntu which will video me using my desktop to demonstrate something | 22:58 |
| Slart | is console-kit-daemon important in some way? It just segfaulted on my xubuntu server | 22:58 |
| kbrosnan | tyberion: i need to be sure you are on i686 you can check x64/i686 run the command uname -a | 22:59 |
| Paddy_EIRE | !envy-ng | xczsacsz | 22:59 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about envy-ng | 22:59 |
| moo_cow | gordonjcp-> not many distros do that | 22:59 |
| Lunar_Lamp | xczsacsz: the best way to update your graphics card drive is to open synaptic package manager and check for updates. | 22:59 |
| Paddy_EIRE | !envy | xczsacsz | 22:59 |
| tyberion | Linux nutshell 2.6.24-19-generic #1 SMP Wed Jun 18 14:43:41 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux | 22:59 |
| ubottu | xczsacsz: envyng is an updated version of the *UNSUPPORTED* envy package. It is now part of the ubuntu universe repository (envyng-gtk OR envyng-qt) and has community support. As an early version, its results may vary but this should be used over the unsupported envy package. | 22:59 |
| gordonjcp | moo_cow: uhm, what? | 22:59 |
| moo_cow | give all users the same path | 22:59 |
| tyberion | kbrosnan: im on i686 | 22:59 |
| gordonjcp | moo_cow: pretty much all distros do that. Why would different users have different paths by default? | 22:59 |
| quio | Hello. I got disconnected before. Does anyone know how to get Ubuntu to activate my wireless card. It was working the other day and then as I booted up the wirless light went off as soon as it boots. If I put an XP hard drive in the light comes on and the wireless works right away. I was using nm-applet 0.6.5? | 22:59 |
| SpookyET | If someone has an unmodified installation: aptitude search '.*' | grep '^i' | 22:59 |
| kbrosnan | tyberion: 8.04? | 22:59 |
| tyberion | kbrosnan: yep | 22:59 |
| simotempler | hi there - anyone know if there is a program for ubuntu which will video me using my desktop to demonstrate something | 22:59 |
| moo_cow | gordonjcp-> cause not all distros have sudo setup like ubuntu by default, so commands that need root permissions are not in the path. | 23:00 |
| psycose | do you know where i could find a gcc-4.3 for ubuntu hardy x86 ? thanks | 23:00 |
| xczsacsz | so i download envyng? | 23:00 |
| _empemp_ | i have a ubuntu machine with a printer conencted, works fine. trying to print to it from another ubuntu machine | 23:00 |
| gordonjcp | moo_cow: hm, I'm not sure I understand | 23:00 |
| _empemp_ | all seems fint, but it won't let the jobs go through | 23:01 |
| Paddy_EIRE | xczsacsz, sudo apt-get install envy-gtk | 23:01 |
| _empemp_ | i worked before and is working fine on the printerside | 23:01 |
| moo_cow | gordonjcp-> ubuntu is different than just about distro by not having a root user by default | 23:01 |
| wolfeySI | _empemp_: cups must permit connections from local machines i think | 23:01 |
| hacksilber | hi, using ubuntu 8.04, anyway to disable fast-user-switching? | 23:01 |
| _empemp_ | hmm | 23:01 |
| _empemp_ | how? | 23:01 |
| wolfeySI | _empemp_: in cups config... | 23:01 |
| kbrosnan | tyberion: make sure java-gcj-compat-plugin is not installed and install sun-java6-plugin and sun-java6 via synaptic | 23:01 |
| xczsacsz | what is a sudo? | 23:01 |
| Lichte | Anyone know how to get the MTP plugin to work with Rhythmbox ??? | 23:01 |
| gordonjcp | moo_cow: yes | 23:01 |

| Paddy_EIRE | vasily, sure... which programs | 23:37 |
| mistergibson | is there a gnome2 theme editor proper? | 23:37 |
| mint_ | i think there was a wireless card question... i just installed one recently.. i ended up going to synaptic package manager, searching for ndiswrapper, installing the 3 results (ndisgtk, ndiswrapper common, and utils) and then using ndisgtk to install the wireless driver from the cd | 23:37 |
| Paddy_EIRE | zeeqy, well what exactly is the problem? | 23:37 |
| hustle | Method2oo7: do you mean "mkdir"? | 23:37 |
| tharvey | SpectralDesign, are you skipping . and ..? | 23:38 |
| Plazma_Work | is it documented somewhere what the server version has that he desktop version of ubuntu doesnt? | 23:38 |
| vasily | Puddy. virtualbox. I got to their website and started their download manager but it did not bring me to anything. I got a small file and that is it :( | 23:38 |
| SpectralDesign | tharvey yes, as well as any other "hidden" files/folders | 23:38 |
| Paddy_EIRE | vasily, 1 sec | 23:38 |
| zeeqy | i installed asterisk, php, mysql and all its dependencies...removing them leave all the folders behind, and become difficult to work around with apache folders... | 23:38 |
| vasily | Paddy, sure | 23:38 |
| Method2oo7 | ok how do i make a dir in root | 23:39 |
| Gromit_ | mkdir | 23:39 |
| SpectralDesign | tharvey that was why I did the FILELIST thing, to get the `cp -al` done sans the .snapshot folder | 23:39 |
| rainwalker | xhuangzi: nope, netflix's streaming requires IE and WMP and tons of DRM-related crap | 23:39 |
| bazhang | vasily, any reason not to use vbox from partner repos | 23:39 |

| Paddy_EIRE | vasily, stick to the ubuntu documented way of doing things.. we dont really officially support anything other that that here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox | 23:39 |
| DrLame_ | wolfeySI: Litx: I lost inet again and had to restart | 23:40 |

| Paddy_EIRE | :) | 23:40 |
| vasily | Paddy - yes, I need to use USB microphone. I can not make it working in Ubuntu and vbox has a virtual connection to USB I was told | 23:40 |
| wolfeySI | DrLame_: no? | 23:40 |
| wolfeySI | i'm not 100% on this channel | 23:41 |
| wolfeySI | if you just want static ip, you write that in /etc/network/interfaces and restart networking | 23:41 |
| wolfeySI | i see no point in trying to get GUI to do that | 23:41 |
| Klick__ | hey all, does anyone know how i can tell ubuntu not to run dancer-ircd on start up? I don't see it listed in dervices | 23:41 |
| moo_cow | what's the deal with ubuntu? it has no resolutions listen in the xorg.conf by default. | 23:41 |
| MasterShrek | vasily, i believe virtualbox is in the repos | 23:41 |
| Paddy_EIRE | vasily, yeah it does if you use the PEUL version | 23:41 |
| tharvey | SpectralDesign, nothing jumps out at me... add the output the the pastbin showing all the echos | 23:41 |

| Paddy_EIRE | MasterShrek, the one in the repos is the FOSS edition.. lacking usb support afaik | 23:42 |
| Plazma_Work | so how well does virtualbox or vmware run on Ubuntu? | 23:42 |
| zelrikriando | moo_cow, the xorg.conf is obsolete kinda | 23:42 |
| vasily | Puddy. the open sourse version does not support USB | 23:42 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Plazma_Work, how well does your comp run | 23:42 |
| Paddy_EIRE | vasily, yeah I know | 23:42 |
| MasterShrek | Paddy_EIRE, i thought there were two versions in the repo, could be wrong though... | 23:42 |
| Plazma_Work | Paddy_EIRE, well its a new machine, quad core + 4gb of ram | 23:42 |
| Plazma_Work | i have yet to put an OS on it so | 23:42 |
| moo_cow | zelrikriando-> you're a dumbass | 23:42 |
| Paddy_EIRE | Plazma_Work, happy days :) | 23:43 |
| Plazma_Work | and im debating | 23:43 |

| Plazma_Work | last time i used ubuntu, it frustrated me when it rie dto do some custom kernel compiling and what not.. but that was over 3 years ago | 23:43 |

| Plazma_Work | to me it felt like i was wearing "kid gloves" | 23:43 |

| moo_cow | go ahead and ban me from this channel if you want cause i get stupid responses instead of help from here | 23:44 |

| nickrud_ | MasterShrek, that's the bulletproof X in action | 23:44 |
| Paddy_EIRE | vasily, do not use the sun download manager either | 23:44 |

| bazhang | !es | 23:47 |
| zelrikriando | !spanish | 23:47 |
| nickrud_ | moo_cow, it's not stupid answer, it's one that apparently is further along in X config than you are. X can use screen configs, but uses xrandr to set resolutions by preference now | 23:47 |
| ubottu | En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. | 23:47 |
| alon_m | joebob777as7, isnt the uri port like 900 | 23:47 |
| tharvey | SpectralDesign, qoute all args to cp that have vars, in case you end up with files with spaces in them for example - and why are you not just using 'ln' instead of CP? | 23:47 |

| moo_cow | nickrud_-> im seeing a new user going back to windows cause ubuntu doesnt allow him to have higher resolution than 1024x768 without the picture getting cut off. | 23:48 |
| nickrud_ | moo_cow, what video card? | 23:48 |
| wolfeySI | DrLame: i didnt use such for wlan, cause i have no idea how to set up WPA properly:) | 23:48 |
| Paddy_EIRE | vasily, any joy? | 23:48 |
| alon_m | joebob777as7, why not just print to your printer why are you printing to cups? little more details on your setup would be good | 23:48 |
| SpectralDesign | tharvey, thanks, so... line 22 should be: "$CP" -al "$SNAPDIR/$SOURCEDIR/$FILE" "$SNAPDIR"/snapshot.1 ?? | 23:48 |
| DrLame | wolfeySI: I don't know what allow-hotplug is =( Someone told me to use that. It was for eth0 connection. THey said to just substiture wlan0 in | 23:49 |
| trashguy | moo_cow, swithcing back to windows because you dont understand something isnt the best idea | 23:49 |
| DrLame | but, I think I have an answer now | 23:49 |
| SpectralDesign | tharvey, I'm using cp instead on ln because cp recurses (I think).. does ln recurse? | 23:49 |

| tharvey | SpectralDesign, ya, but not sure thats your issue as I don't know whats in yours - contents of your FILELIST is 'files' or directories? | 23:49 |
| joe__ | I change my ip to static instead dhcp, but it gives me no ip at all this time... help plz | 23:49 |
| DJAdmiral | Also, any idea what's a good video card to get for Ubuntu 8.04 and Crossover Games? I'm looking for something between 256 and 512 mb. | 23:49 |
| [[thufir]] | when I run netstat, how do I figure out what's consuming my network resources? the system monitor shows huge network activity for no apparent reason. | 23:49 |
| zelrikriando | moo_cow, that is surprising, screen resolution is really well handled now in Hardy | 23:49 |
| kingfishr | Question: Can I install newer versions of certain packages through synaptic? (In gentoo, I would unmask them and then emerge them) | 23:50 |
| SpectralDesign | tharvey there is one file (fun_plug) the rest are folders | 23:50 |

| ket[a] | how can i burn the cd image to a usb drive? | 23:50 |
| Starnestommy | willitaway: regular xchat or xchat-gnome? | 23:50 |
| nickrud_ | moo_cow, ah, that one. If you had said nvidia or ati I'd have some suggestions, but I've never used that one. Many do though, so don't go away | 23:50 |
| alon_m | joebob777as7, connect the local machine at home via ssh tunnel then go into cups control panel at home and add in your office printer then print a test page to see if its functioning | 23:50 |
| willitaway | Starnestommy -gnome | 23:50 |
| unop | willitaway, right click the channel, unselect show join/part messages | 23:50 |
| tharvey | SpectralDesign, ah... so you are trying to copy directories... does '$SNAPDIR/snapshot.1' exist? you need to create it first if your trying to copy multiple things to it | 23:51 |
| Starnestommy | willitaway: I don't think xchat-gnome can do it | 23:51 |
| zelrikriando | nickrud_, I have an intel but I my screen doesnt take more that 1024xXXX so I never tried more | 23:51 |
| joebob777as7 | alon_m i'm trying to add the office printer at home right now and it doesn't see it. that's my problem... :( | 23:51 |

| onthefence928 | nickrud_: i'm assuming i can't use that same uuid | 23:57 |
| nickrud_ | unop, he said he's already set it up | 23:57 |
| DJAdmiral | alon_m: Care to elaborate? | 23:57 |
| unop | onthefence928, right your UUID will be different | 23:57 |
| nickrud_ | onthefence928, no, sudo blkid will show the right one | 23:57 |
| chris_ | Please Help. When I was copying home video's to a cd/dvd window, I accidnetly hit cut instead of copy and the folders in the cd/dvd window seem to be empty, now it seems our videos are lost can anybody please help me recover them. we left the computer on and haven't touched it since just in case we can recover them from memory. | 23:57 |
| DJAdmiral | alon_m: Oh, wait. No, I just want a card with good support for ubuntu. I'm open to anything. | 23:57 |
| === HZ is now known as HybridZero | ||
| joebob777as7 | DJAdmiral pretty much any nvidia has good ubuntu support | 23:57 |
| linxeh | is there a utility that can deduplicate emails? | 23:58 |
| alon_m | DJAdmiral, pci, pci express or AGP | 23:58 |
| DJAdmiral | joebob777as7, alon_m: What about ATI? | 23:58 |
| Dmole | what's wrong with this command?; at now + 10 minutes bash ~/script.bash | 23:58 |
| unop | nickrud_, i musta missed that one - can't hurt to verify that he's done that tho | 23:58 |
| nickrud_ | DJAdmiral, anything more than a year and a half old, less than 3 :) | 23:58 |
| alon_m | DJAdmiral, which port do you have | 23:58 |
| unop | onthefence928, have you run mkswap on the partition you have dedicated for swap there? | 23:58 |
| moo_cow | nickrud_-> zelrikriando my friends going to be in here shortly so ill let you 2 talk to him. | 23:58 |
| joshual | hi folks, just installed ardour, trying to get it to work... i am now probably running pulseaudio which is the default on ubuntu hardy as i understand it | 23:58 |
| joebob777as7 | DJAdmiral i'd say it's hit and miss. haven't used for a while but I hear they're doing better driver wise now | 23:58 |
| DJAdmiral | alon_m: AGP. | 23:58 |
| onthefence928 | unop: no | 23:59 |
| onthefence928 | unop: what does it do? | 23:59 |
| DJAdmiral | joebob777as7: I guess I'll go for an nvidia card then. | 23:59 |
| natt | chris_: it shouldn't have moved the files unless there was somewhere to move them to, what happened to the copy in the "cd/dvd window"? | 23:59 |
| unop | onthefence928, it setups the partition with a swap area ready to be used | 23:59 |
| nickrud_ | unop, that's the sign of someone who's been here too long (or long enough) answers the question behind the question that didn't get asked ;) | 23:59 |
| Kaldor | Does openGL run natively on Linux if you have an nvidia geforce card? | 23:59 |
