[00:00] <Fryguy--> Xiro: glxinfo | grep -i direct
[00:00] <PorkSoda> wmctrl doesn't show it either hehe
[00:00] <Fryguy--> WT: compmiz
[00:00] <PorkSoda> crap
[00:00] <Fryguy--> WT: compiz or metacity
[00:00] <crdlb> PorkSoda: a window disappearing is almost certainly the fault of the app itself
[00:00] <Xiro> ﻿AlphaXero: No I cant
[00:00] <WT> Fryguy: ah... thanks... I will turn that crap off
[00:00] <WebcamWonder> In grub, the "splash" after the kernel controls whether or not usplash is displayed?
[00:00] <M_Cheevy> dmraid: are you still in the installation process?
[00:00] <soundray> WebcamWonder: yes
[00:00] <dmraid_help_me> M_cheevy, sort of
[00:00] <AlphaXero> Xiro, did you install your gpu device driver?
[00:00] <M_Cheevy> WebcamWonder: yes, I know that.  my issue is _creating_ not installing
[00:00] <DJAdmiral> ubunubi: Not exactly. I never used netcat to transfer to samba before, however I did transfer files wrapped in ssh from one computer to another using netcat
[00:00] <dmraid_help_me> M_cheevy, I am in a live seesion, I could kick off the intall
[00:01] <WebcamWonder> M_Cheevy: :S I have my own issues :)
[00:01] <isleshocky771> I deleted /usr/lib/llibWand.so.10 by accident. Where can I look to get it back?
[00:01] <M_Cheevy> dmraid; BE VERY CAREFUL.  especially if you have other partitions
[00:01] <nickolaus> is there an overly aggressive wifi connection handler for ubuntu?>
[00:01] <WebcamWonder> soundray: so, if I was to remove the "splash" keyword, would it drop me to the text based feedback of the loading?
[00:01] <timz1> and why does noone answer my questions :-/ thats the 4th i'm asking
[00:01] <Xiro> ﻿AlphaXero: That might be the problem, thx, I come back to you if it doesn't work
[00:01] <ubunubi> nickolaus:: might want to explain in more detail what you're needing
[00:01] <PorkSoda> Ok guys, I'm going to try to shut it down :/
[00:01]  * PorkSoda sighs
[00:01] <dmraid_help_me> M_cheevy, nothing to be careful with, all brand new disks, no data care about
[00:01]  * PorkSoda sighs one more again
[00:01] <M_Cheevy> dmraid: there's a damn good howto on "fakeraid" which explains how to install on SATA Raid0
[00:01] <elsebasbe> I'm having trouble with wget and proxy. even though I have set the proxy address in /etc/wgetrc and told it to use proxy it doesn't.
[00:01] <DJAdmiral> timz1: everyone's probably busy with something else - just keep trying
[00:02] <soundray> WebcamWonder: not sure if 'drop' is the right word, but you'd get a text-mode boot up to the point when gdm kicks in
[00:02] <elsebasbe> anyone got any idea what I could do wrong?
[00:02] <dmraid_help_me> M_cheevy, that fakeraid doesn't tell you what to do if dmraid and the fdisk are not seeing the correct size of the raid volume
[00:02] <joel_> how do you enable the default desktop icons?
[00:02] <DJAdmiral> elsebasbe: you could use windows. that's pretty dang wrong.
[00:02] <Fryguy--> elsebasbe: syntax error or settings getting overriden in ~, are you sure wget used /etc/wgetrc
[00:03] <M_Cheevy> dmraid: what controller do you have? nvidia nforce?
[00:03] <irc007> am i limited with packages and drivers being on ubuntu amd64 bit version ? skype isn't avail in 64bit, and rep doesn't have it, also need RTL8101E driver
[00:03] <WebcamWonder> soundray: Great that is what I meant, since my usplash refuses to show up and give me visual feedback and I am perfectly ok with text-mode... and also will the "quiet" keyword after the kernel prevent it from giving the loading messages?
[00:03] <dmraid_help_me> M_cheevy, intel ichr9
[00:03] <nickolaus> I am looking for something that will aggressively attempt to connect to public wifi, be it trying standard pass and login info without having me enter it.
[00:03] <Fryguy--> irc007: there are some repository differences between 32-bit and 64-bit yes
[00:03] <elsebasbe> Fryguy--: I dont have that file in ~, also I tried to set it as an variable in the shell but it didn't work
[00:04] <Xiro> ﻿AlphaXero: It says on the website that the drivers don't support my system
[00:04] <Fryguy--> nickolaus: that's illegal, and you aren't going to be able to get support about it in here
[00:04] <elsebasbe> but I could copy the file to ~ and see it that works better
[00:04] <M_Cheevy> dmraid: as this is a new install, and there is no risk of any data loss, I'd go ahead and give it a shot and see what happens.  worse thing is you could have to rebuild your raid array setup and re-partition,
[00:04] <Xodiac13> when i install a game in ubuntu as a .deb is it really installed
[00:04] <Xodiac13> ?
[00:04] <soundray> WebcamWonder: the quiet keyword reduces the verbosity of the boot process
[00:04] <Fryguy--> Xodiac13: yes
[00:04] <WT> I'm not the only one: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/400/
[00:04] <AlphaXero> Xiro, what gpu is it?
[00:04] <dmraid_help_me> M_cheevy, the probelm is it is seeing a volume of 250GB when it should see one of 500GB since it is four disks ov 250GB
[00:04] <elsebasbe> Fryguy--: nope, that didn't do it :(
[00:04] <Fryguy--> Xiro: i asked you to glxinfo | grep -i direct a while ago, why don't you do that first
[00:05] <timz1> about editing /boot/grub/menu.lst  since some configuring after installing ubuntu i have Ubuntu 8.04.1, kernel 2.6.24-16-generic and ~(generic mode) twice and i have the exact same text twice in menu.lst, can i just delete one of them?
[00:05] <orgthingy> hello
[00:05] <M_Cheevy> dmraid: you are running a mirror on a stripe?
[00:05] <elsebasbe> Fryguy--: I get no error or anything, just that it doens't use the proxy
[00:05] <Xodiac13> Fryguy: i installed alien arena 2007 how do i run it i cant see if its installed or not it was a .deb
[00:05] <irc007> Fryguy--: so no skype is avail in ubuntu amd64bit ?
[00:05] <Xiro> ﻿AlphaXero: gpu is your graphics right? If so Nvidia GeForce 9600
[00:05] <Fryguy--> timz1: prolly
[00:05] <soundray> elsebasbe: did you export the variable in the shell?
[00:05] <Killer--Tux> hello you all
[00:05] <Fryguy--> irc007: i don't think so
[00:05] <dmraid_help_me> M_cheevy, RAID 1+0, mirro and stripe!!!
[00:05] <orgthingy> My sound aint good
[00:05] <soundray> irc007: yes it is
[00:05] <Xodiac13> Fryguy: i installed alien arena 2007 how do i run it i cant see if its installed or not it was a .deb
[00:05] <Fryguy--> Xodiac13: use dpkg -l to see what files it installed
[00:05] <tehquickness> Even though I have followed the correct details on the wiki, I am having problems playing dvds on my laptop. VLC crashes and Totem throughs a "Could not read resources" error
[00:05] <elsebasbe> soundray: hm I did not
[00:05] <Killer--Tux> my sound went away how can i fix this ?!?
[00:05] <elsebasbe> soundray: how do I do that again?
[00:05] <AlphaXero> Xiro, go to add/remove and search for nvidia
[00:05] <Xiro> ﻿Fryguy--: Cause I didn't understand, it said something about no and something like that
[00:05] <Xodiac13> ok
[00:05] <Fryguy--> !repeat | Xodiac13
[00:05] <irc007> soundray: where?
[00:05] <aestrivex> can somebody help me figure out how to use my webcam in x86_64 ubuntu
[00:06] <Xodiac13> Fryguy: sorry
[00:06] <Xiro> ﻿AlphaXero: ok
[00:06] <soundray> irc007: if you enable medibuntu and install skype, you'll get 32bit skype adapted to your 64bit system
[00:06] <Fryguy--> Xiro: if it's no, then you don't have 3d acceleration, and need to install a proper drive before you can use compiz
[00:06] <WebcamWonder> soundray: Ahh, I get it, the verbosity is more when I was going through the recovery kernel :) Thank you, and last one: what is the purpose of "ro" and if I wanted the update-grub to not add splash on new kernels in menu, would I remove it from defoptions (currently commented via #)?
[00:06] <M_Cheevy> dmraid: have you tried to abandon gparted and use another partitioning programme before trying the install?  The install partition manager is notoriously bad with software raid arrays
[00:06] <Fryguy--> !nvidia | Xodiac13
[00:06] <aestrivex> lol this is rather frenetic
[00:06] <orgthingy> it sounds crappy
[00:06] <orgthingy> it was yesterday or 2 years ago
[00:06] <orgthingy> I wonder why the sound is so... unclear now
[00:06] <orgthingy> anybody can help?
[00:06] <FloodBot1> orgthingy: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:06] <dmraid_help_me> M_cheevy, it is FDISK and DMRAID that are reporting the wrong bloody size
[00:06] <Fryguy--> !anybody | orgthingy
[00:06] <spiritssigh1> Hello needed with monitor setup for ATI Dell E1505 laptop please help if you can
[00:06] <Killer--Tux> this is the error i get when i go to System >sound
[00:06] <Xiro> ﻿Fryguy--: ok, thx
[00:06] <Fryguy--> !ask | spiritssigh1
[00:06] <aestrivex> i am a relative noob who doesn't understand why my webcam doesnt work
[00:06] <AlphaXero> Fryguy--, it prob says in his sys tray too lol
[00:07] <Killer--Tux> hey fryguy >
[00:07] <soundray> elsebasbe: export http_proxy="http://your.proxy.com:8001"
[00:07] <SB> lol at the bots
[00:07] <M_Cheevy> dmraid: whoa.. okay, you've travelled outside my experience.. usually dmraid has no problems with my nvidia chipset so I'm at a loss
[00:07] <Killer--Tux> how can i reenable my sound it went away by itself
[00:07] <joel_> ok, lemme rephrase my question: is there a way to get the default dekstop icons that were in feisty in hardy
[00:07] <orgthingy> wth
[00:07] <joel_> ?
[00:07] <aestrivex> i tried messing with drivers that look like they were written for 32 bit architecture
[00:07] <orgthingy> I asked my question then asked anybody can help
[00:07] <orgthingy> jeez
[00:07] <Fryguy--> Killer--Tux: what did you do to make your sound output stop
[00:07] <Killer--Tux> nothing
[00:08] <orgthingy> anyway
[00:08] <aestrivex> i tried messing with a program called easycam which i also cant get to work
[00:08] <orgthingy> how can I fix my sound problem?
[00:08] <Killer--Tux> fryguy i was playing battlefield 2 and it stoped working ?!?
[00:08] <Fryguy--> orgthingy: didn't see your question with you hitting enter ever 3-4 words
[00:08] <AlphaXero> Killer--Tux, did you suspend your machine?
[00:08] <dmraid_help_me> so in otherwords, if **** just doesn't work........ we are all clueless
[00:08] <Killer--Tux> no
[00:08] <Fryguy--> Killer--Tux: try using alsa-oss wrapper for your game
[00:08] <spiritssigh1> this is the same room as the freenode one?
[00:08] <Fryguy--> spiritssigh1: this is freenode
[00:08] <spiritssigh1> oops sorry
[00:08] <orgthingy> fryguy--: my sound is unclear, it isnt now, how can I fix it?
[00:08] <Killer--Tux> this is the error i get when i go to System > sound  audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Failed to connect stream: Invalid argument
[00:09] <Fryguy--> orgthingy: if it isn't now, what is the problem?
[00:09] <orgthingy> it wasnt***
[00:09] <orgthingy> it wasnt before, i mean
[00:09] <Fryguy--> orgthingy: what did you do to change the output of your sound
[00:09] <soundray> WebcamWonder: 1) not sure what the ro is for (it stands for read-only) 2) kernel options for update-grub go in the #kopt= line (all kernels) and the #defoptions= line (only for the default kernel). Leave the # marks there, update-grub needs them.
[00:09] <orgthingy> It was working just fine but today, the sound is so unclear
[00:09] <Miesco> I put my new wireless card in my computer, now what?
[00:09] <Miesco> It shows it in lspci
[00:09] <Leefmc> Question: It seems a newer version of a program fixes some old problems, (raises a new one though), is there a place to suggest an upgrade to the ubuntu repo?
[00:09] <elsebasbe> soundray: ok, it didn't solve the problem though :(
[00:09] <orgthingy> Fryguy--: dunno, maybe I was sleep walking or somthing
[00:09] <joel_> since no one is answering my question, i'll take that as a no
[00:09] <Fryguy--> Miesco: do you have a wireless interface for it ?  see ifconfig and iwconfig
[00:09] <Killer--Tux> brb restarting pc to see if that works
[00:10] <Xiro> ﻿AlphaXero: It didn't work, I can try with the cd maybe?
[00:10] <Fryguy--> orgthingy: that's surely not going to cause the problem
[00:10] <Miesco> k
[00:10] <Fryguy--> orgthingy: did you maybe install some updates? or play back sound in a new program? or install some new software?
[00:10] <spiritssigh1> ok, am I geting this right, both irc.ubuntu.net and freenode is the same
[00:10] <Xiro> ﻿AlphaXero: but the cds usualy doesn't support Linux systems
[00:10] <orgthingy> Fryguy--: I update frequently
[00:10] <bigbadjesus> im having trouble browsing my windows computers in network servers in nautilus
[00:10] <soundray> joel_: feel free to repeat (better yet: rephrase) your question if you haven't had an answer for 15 minutes or more
[00:10] <Fryguy--> orgthingy: maybe one of the updates caused your sound output to "become unclear"
[00:10] <crdlb> spiritssigh1: yes
[00:11] <zipper> i dont get fglrx listed in restricted drivers app, what could be the reason?
[00:11] <orgthingy> oh man
[00:11] <joel_> ok
[00:11] <DIL> hey all, how do i enlarge the screen in virtual box from 5x5 screen
[00:11] <Fryguy--> !ati | zipper
[00:11] <orgthingy> how can i view audio settings in Terminal??
[00:11] <spiritssigh1> ok I thoughts I was doing two different ones all this time
[00:11] <SB> Does anyone have a link where it shows all the different ubuntu channels?  i saw it before but i cant find it again
[00:11] <WebcamWonder> soundray: thank you very much, I will try to remove the splash option and boot up :)
[00:11] <Fryguy--> orgthingy: what settings would you like to see
[00:11] <M_Cheevy> bigbadjesus:  are you able to connect to those shares via your other windows machines?
[00:11] <Miesco> Fryguy--: No I only have eth0
[00:11] <bigbadjesus> yes
[00:11] <spiritssigh1> is there any other irc that are good for geting help with video cards then Flyguy
[00:11] <orgthingy> Fryguy--: what it's using right now
[00:11] <Fryguy--> Miesco: then you need to set up a driver for your wireless device.  what kind of device is it
[00:11] <orgthingy> what type in input..etc
[00:11] <M_Cheevy> bigbadjesus: have you added the workgroup to your samba configuration?
[00:12] <Fryguy--> !offtopic | SB
[00:12] <TheTjalian> bye all
[00:12] <M_Cheevy> bigbadjesus: or are you on a domain?
[00:12] <TheTjalian> nice meeting you
[00:12] <crdlb> zipper: what model radeon?
[00:12] <bigbadjesus> im not on a domain
[00:12] <bigbadjesus> just a local home network i have
[00:12] <elsebasbe> soundray: got any other idea?
[00:12] <Killer--Tux> hey guys  is there any program to speed up my connect
[00:12] <soundray> elsebasbe: did you try the export option?
[00:12] <zipper> crdlb, radeon 9200
[00:12] <bigbadjesus> the workgroup shows up in nautilus as do the computers
[00:12] <SB> fryguy it was somewhere in the wiki i think?
[00:13] <zipper> i looked at that url already
[00:13] <crdlb> zipper: fglrx doesn't support that model
[00:13] <bigbadjesus> but no shares show up when i double click them (which there are)
[00:13] <Fryguy--> Killer--Tux: you connection is going to go as fast as it can already.
[00:13] <bigbadjesus> just an empty white pane
[00:13] <elsebasbe> soundray: I did, but it doesn't work any better :/
[00:13] <aestrivex> can somebody help me figure out why nothing i do with this webcam has any effect
[00:13] <Fryguy--> Killer--Tux: there is no magic "go faster" button
[00:13] <irc007> soundray: cool medibuntu did the trick, thanks
[00:13] <zipper> huh
[00:13] <spiritssigh1> thanks for the help
[00:13] <Fryguy--> !anybody | aestrivex
[00:13] <elsebasbe> soundray: still doesn't use the proxy
[00:13] <M_Cheevy> bigbadjesus: okay, so your running what windows networking refers to as a Workgroup.  you need to find out the workgroup name (right click on the "my computer" icon on a windows machine and check out the identity tab).  you need to add that into your samba configuration file (google for the location)
[00:13] <soundray> elsebasbe: how did you determine that it doesn't use the proxy?
[00:13] <zipper> crdlb, you are right! thanks
[00:13] <Xiro> ﻿AlphaXero: The cd cannot be run...
[00:13] <Killer--Tux> fryguy so there is no program for linux to speed it up more like in windows ?!?
[00:14] <bigbadjesus> ok i'll try hat
[00:14] <bigbadjesus> that*
[00:14] <michael_> How do I enter configuration options to packages while using apt-get ?
[00:14] <Fryguy--> Killer--Tux: no, it already goes as fast as a maxed out windows install
[00:14] <elsebasbe> soundray: I download a file from my local server and have a tail -f at the logs
[00:14] <Killer--Tux> oo
[00:14] <M_Cheevy> bigbad: you may either need to restart samba or reboot which ever you are more comfortable with
[00:14] <soundray> michael_: not at all, normally
[00:14] <Fryguy--> Killer--Tux: btw those windows tweaks typically do little to nothing on modern versions of windows
[00:14] <Tater> test
[00:15] <Fryguy--> Killer--Tux: they are a mainstay from back in the days when the windows network stack was optimized for dial up connections and people optimized it for broadband
[00:15] <soundray> elsebasbe: see if it uses the proxy when you access a remote server
[00:15] <michael_> soundray: What if I want to set configuration options for a particular package?
[00:15] <Killer--Tux> mmm
[00:15] <michael_> As one might with dpkg --configure xxx -enable-whatever
[00:16] <soundray> michael_: you install it, then edit the configuration files. Some packages have interactive configuration as part of their postinstall scripts.
[00:16] <Resnick> Hey everyone. Installed Ubuntu yesterday and my webcam seemed to be working great, but now the image is ultra-saturated. Any tools I can use to investigate with would be appriciated
[00:16] <CelticLord> nuit!!
[00:16] <pw-toxic> hi, i have another question
[00:16] <elsebasbe> soundray: I dont have access so I can read logfiles to any remote server
[00:16] <M_Cheevy> hadit, ra-hoor-huit
[00:16] <pw-toxic> in used windows before.. then i had to use "cmd" if i want to use maven
[00:16] <ImperfectLink> I just had the WM crash on me. the screen went blk while i was doing nothing more then FF and Xchat. Can someone tell me where to look for the error report?
[00:17] <pw-toxic> for example mvn install
[00:17] <pw-toxic> how can i do this in ubuntu?
[00:17] <Fryguy--> pw-toxic: use a terminal
[00:17] <Fryguy--> pw-toxic: should be in applications menu
[00:17] <soundray> michael_: you don't --enable things in dpkg. Compile-time configurations are fixed in Ubuntu packages. If you want to set those, you have to compile from source instead of installing from a binary package.
[00:17] <pw-toxic> Fryguy--: i want to use this with a terminal
[00:18] <michael_> Ah, quite right.
[00:18] <michael_> But doesn
[00:18] <elsebasbe> soundray: hm, I downloaded a page that displays your IP address, and it seems that it works :)
[00:18] <Fryguy--> pw-toxic: yes
[00:18] <michael_> Doesn't apt compile from source?
[00:18] <Fryguy--> michael_: no
[00:18] <pw-toxic> but it says: bash: mvn: command not found
[00:18] <elsebasbe> soundray: I have my proxy's IP. thanks for you help!
[00:18] <M_Cheevy> michael: rarely
[00:18] <Fryguy--> pw-toxic: so then install maven.  probably sudo apt-get install maven
[00:18] <pw-toxic> Fryguy--: ok thx i just installed it in eclipse
[00:18] <pw-toxic> ill try that
[00:18] <soundray> michael_: you can 'apt-get build' things, but I can't tell you much about that.
[00:19] <michael_> That sets me in the right direction at least. Thank you.
[00:19] <pw-toxic> Fryguy--: couldnt find maven, but maven2 works   thx
[00:19] <soundray> elsebasbe: if you want to fix that proxy permanently, set it in /etc/environment
[00:19] <M_Cheevy> fryguy: you seem to be one of the more helpful ones.. have you ever made a custom usplash screen (since gutsy that is)?  I'm having trouble assigning colours to the progress bar and text area
[00:19] <Fryguy--> M_Cheevy: don't ask me i don't know anything
[00:20] <elsebasbe> soundray: ok, I don't have to do that, but thanks alot
[00:20] <elsebasbe> :)
[00:20] <pw-toxic> Fryguy--: <3 u   mvn clear works
[00:20] <M_Cheevy> Fryguy: wouldn't no that unless I asked, but thanks any way
[00:20] <M_Cheevy> no=know
[00:20] <Xiro> Can someone help me install Nvidia drivers to my Ubuntu?
[00:20] <Fryguy--> !nvidia | Xiro
[00:20] <SebNaitsabes> Xiro: yep
[00:21] <Resnick> camE reports that that there is "No supported palette found, please report your device to the author" for the Logitech Quickcam Communicate MP Plus. But it was working when I plugged it in earlier :o
[00:21] <surbahns> I have a Linux server the houses all my media on it. Is there a application that would index all my media and create a almost intranet website that I could use to show which media I do and don't have? Say thumbnails from movie clips and/or flash players to stream a MP3?
[00:21] <kjdro> where can i find nvidia kernel drivers for ubuntu 8.04 64 bit edition ??? specially eth driver is what i am interested in HELP PLS
[00:21] <Fryguy--> kjdro: which driver
[00:22] <M_Cheevy> surbahns: you could probably make a perl script that would do that
[00:22] <crewdawg> hello all
[00:22] <timz1> i'm configuring avant-window-navigator i want to replace the panel on the bottom, is there any possibility to add a button for "show Desktop" and the bin? like /usr/bin/xchat for xchat something for these?
[00:23] <kjdro> Fryguy--: the ones for eth .. for networking
[00:23] <surbahns> M_Cheevy Yeah. Thanks. But if there was a package already out there I would rather work with a team then try to building something from fresh
[00:23] <ubunubi> timz:: only if you install the bcz verion instead
[00:23] <ubunubi> timz:: version*
[00:23] <Fryguy--> kjdro: they should all be enabled by default.
[00:23] <Fryguy--> kjdro: you don't have an eth0 interface in ifconfig?
[00:24] <kjdro> i have ... but aint wokring
[00:24] <Mimi> :-( Who knows when this "Sound works here but not there" thing gonna be fixed :P Games, Firefox, Rhythmbox. Only one works at a time lol!!
[00:24] <Fryguy--> kjdro: if you have an eth0 interface, then your drivers are fine
[00:24] <M_Cheevy> surbahns: have a troll through synaptic.
[00:24] <xeer> How can I prevent a window from being maximized? It's crashing my system everytime I maximize ANY window..
[00:24] <kjdro> fryguy--: but i cant see the network.. dont know what else can be wrong
[00:25] <M_Cheevy> Mimi:could be worse, you could have a soundblaster x-fi ;)
[00:25] <Fryguy--> kjdro: does eth0 have an ip?
[00:25] <kjdro> yes
[00:25] <soundray> xeer: can you describe that crash a bit more?
[00:25] <Fryguy--> kjdro: and is it on the same subnet as everything else in your local network? can you ping your gateway by ip? does dns resolve?
[00:25] <Obi_Bong_Kedoobi> its all good
[00:25] <kjdro> it is .. but i cant ping anithing
[00:25] <xeer> soundray: yes, it powers off my monitor. I can still hear music in the background. ctrl + alt + backspace does not restore my x session
[00:26] <kjdro> and nooen sees me ...
[00:26] <crewdawg> why does my java compiler say "incompatible types found java.lag.string required char" for the line "letterGrade = stdIn.next();
[00:26] <Fryguy--> crewdawg: #java
[00:26] <ubunuser> hello peple.
[00:26] <crewdawg> noones there
[00:26] <Fryguy--> kjdro: what is your ip/netmask?
[00:26] <soundray> xeer: can you switch to a text console with Ctrl-Alt-F2?
[00:26] <WalloO> crewdawg, it'S java.lang.string, isn't it?
[00:26] <ubunuser> any idea how to search for rtl8180 in apt-get?
[00:27] <crewdawg> yes
[00:27] <tekryan> hello, does anyone know of anyway for me to install realvnc server on ubuntu....plz thnx
[00:27] <Fryguy--> ubunuser: apt-cache search rtl8180, but that's a driver and you probably aren't going to find it there, what is your actual proble m
[00:27] <Fryguy--> tekryan: google "ubuntu vnc server" gives plenty of meaningful results
[00:27] <xeer> soundray: there is no way of knowing with my kind of setup. I have a Dell 30" LCD that doesn't power on until the gnome login screen is reached. the only terminal I can access is through my desktop.
[00:27] <tekryan> Fryguy--, I was looking for specifically "realvnc"
[00:28] <Fryguy--> xeer: you should configure your video card correctly :)
[00:28] <Fryguy--> tekryan: so then "ubuntu realvnc server" :/
[00:28] <ubunuser> Fryguy--: someone suggested net-wireless/rtl8180 would work for my wifi on gentoo. Now I am trying to use it in ubuntu
[00:28] <spikemcc> hi someone could help me with a canadian french keyboard ?
[00:28] <xeer> Fryguy--, my video card is configured correctly. I am using the fglrx drivers and I am also using Xgl for the enhanced desktop effects. Getting over 6000fps from glxgears.
[00:28] <Fryguy--> !anybody | spikemcc
[00:28] <soundray> xeer: nice display that. When you first turn the computer on, does the LCD display any BIOS-related messages?
[00:28] <xeer> Fryguy--, my resolution is 2560x1600 24bit
[00:28] <Fryguy--> xeer: apparently not then if you don't get a display before gdm
[00:29] <Xiro> Is my 9600 nVidia even compatible with Linux?
[00:29] <pw-toxic> im looking for a nice theme page for ubuntu
[00:29] <pw-toxic> different appearences
[00:29] <AlphaXero> Xiro, should be
[00:29] <crewdawg> Wallo0: what could the issue be?
[00:29] <Fryguy--> pw-toxic: gnome-look.org
[00:29] <WebcamWonder> The vga=xxx line goes in the kernel in the grub?
[00:29] <pw-toxic> Fryguy--: thx
[00:29] <xeer> soundray, Fryguy-- : no, I don't get any BIOS reports even from the first post from my motherboard.
[00:29] <Xiro> ﻿AlphaXero: I cannot update :'(
[00:30] <xeer> Fryguy--, so explain then to me how my video card is not correctly configured.
[00:30] <Fryguy--> xeer: no idea what you've done, i have the same display and it display bios/pre-gdm screens just fine
[00:30] <soundray> WebcamWonder: you can add it to the #kopt or #defoptions line. sudo update-grub to enable.
[00:30] <Resnick> Does anyone have any experience with webcams here? I was so looking forward to talking to my Dad on skype tomorrow :|
[00:30] <spikemcc> dell inspiron 1501 on ultimate ubuntu 1.8 need canadian french keyboard layout but it's not working even in xorg.conf but in the layout test it work perfectly !!!
[00:30] <soundray> !webcam > Resnick
[00:30] <crewdawg> anyone proficient in java?
[00:31] <xeer> Fryguy--, I have two ATi Radeon 1600XT's that are in perfect condition, both have same results. no bios posts and no ubuntu loading screen till X is started
[00:31] <Fryguy--> crewdawg: i am, but that's not important, join #java for programming problems
[00:31] <Xiro> ﻿AlphaXero: Well, I guess I have to go back to Windows XP after, like 1hr of linux use
[00:31] <AlphaXero> pw-toxic, i tried a few of those and just settled on the intrepid ibex theme
[00:31] <ubunuser> Fryguy--: someone suggested net-wireless/rtl8180 would work for my wifi on gentoo. Now I am trying to use it in ubuntu
[00:31] <crewdawg> ya but #java is empty
[00:31] <Resnick> Alrighty. Thank you soundray.
[00:31] <Fryguy--> xeer: and I have a radeon x1600, an x1450, and an nvidia 6800GT, all of which have contradictory results to yours
[00:31] <spikemcc> dell inspiron 1501 on ultimate ubuntu 1.8 need canadian french keyboard layout but it's not working even in xorg.conf but in the layout test it work perfectly !!!
[00:31] <Fryguy--> ubunuser: why are you repeating that?
[00:31] <AlphaXero> Xiro, did you look in the add/remove?
[00:31] <WebcamWonder> soundray, and if I manually add it to one of the menu items under automatic for testing, will it hurt me in any way, b/c removing the splash option didn't work, I am still getting black screen during usplash process and have to hit CTRL+ALT+F1 to drop to the text-based output everytime
[00:31] <Fryguy--> !repeat | spikemcc
[00:32] <soundray> xeer: and your screen turns off when you maximize a window. If it was mine, that thing would be back with Dell in no time.
[00:32] <xeer> Fryguy--, are you using AGP or PCI-E? are you also using the VGA or DVI-D port?
[00:32] <Xiro> ﻿AlphaXero: Yes, installed everything that could be installed
[00:32] <Fryguy--> xeer: the x1450 is agp, the 1600 is pci-e, my dell only  has dvi-d
[00:32] <WalloO> spikemcc, I use usb candian keyboard and it works perfectely.
[00:32] <Xiro> ﻿AlphaXero: But it doesn't matter, I am more used to Windows anyway
[00:32] <xeer> soundray, when using radeon or vesa drivers, my monitor doesn't turn off when a window is maximized. only with fglrx and xgl enabled.
[00:32] <soundray> WebcamWonder: please pastebin your menu.lst for me (http://paste.ubuntu.com)
[00:33] <Xiro> ﻿AlphaXero: It's another thing if you are born with Linux
[00:33] <WebcamWonder> soundray, sure
[00:33] <ubunuser> Fryguy--: I was repeating it 'coz you were busy and I thought you may not have seen it. :) sorry if it's overbearing.
[00:33] <Billll> hey is a wireless card hard to isntall on ubuntu?
[00:33] <SebNaitsabes> Xiro: install envyng-gtk that should help a lot with your Nivida card
[00:33] <Fryguy--> ubunuser: i already answered your question. i have nothing to offer you for gentoo package relationships
[00:33] <spikemcc> WalloO my laptop keyboard don't work right
[00:33] <soundray> Billll: some more than others
[00:33] <WalloO> xeer, does it turn of after some time?
[00:33] <Fryguy--> ubunuser: to reiterate, use apt-cache search
[00:33] <WebcamWonder> soundray, http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/25545/
[00:33] <xeer> WalloO, no I could leave it on for days.
[00:33] <Xiro> ﻿SebNaitsabes: How? as said I am more a windows guy
[00:33] <WalloO> spikemcc, even if you setup the keyboard then logout and login?
[00:33] <spikemcc> `a`e`i`o`u^a^e^i^o^u¸c ...
[00:33] <Fryguy--> !envy | Xiro
[00:33] <Billll> soundray: what are some common problems with isntallation?
[00:34] <SebNaitsabes> Xirao: at the top there press applications then go to assesories then to terminal
[00:34] <Fryguy--> Billll: not having the right driver, or having it configured correctly
[00:34] <ubunuser> Fryguy--: sorry I thought you might know how to search for drivers in general... nevermind. thanks for your help. :)
[00:34] <SebNaitsabes> Xirao: at the otp there press applications then go to assesoreis then to terminal
[00:34] <WalloO> xeer, I mean, when the screen turn off, is it quickly or after some time of use?
[00:34] <SebNaitsabes> Xiro: twice I did your name wrong look above
[00:34] <soundray> WebcamWonder: you haven't removed quiet splash from line 89 !?
[00:34] <AlphaXero> Xiro, go to System>Administration>Hardware Drivers
[00:34] <Billll> fryguy: alright I have a install CD, I'll see what happens
[00:34] <Billll> =P
[00:35] <WebcamWonder> soundray, I did, it didn't work
[00:35] <xeer> Fryguy--, I hate having to lug around a CRT to view my bios and ubuntu loading screen.. You've done no tricks to enable your dvi during bios posts?
[00:35] <Xiro> ﻿ AlphaXero: Nothing there
[00:35] <soundray> WebcamWonder: remove it again and run 'sudo update-grub' to make it work
[00:35] <SebNaitsabes> Xiro: when in termianl type sudo apt-get insatll envyng-gtk and enter
[00:35] <WebcamWonder> soundray, I have to update-grub in order to make it work?
[00:35] <AlphaXero> Xiro, if there is nothing there, the driver is not installed yet
[00:35] <Billll> I have a internal qireless card so that should be interetsing
[00:35] <SebNaitsabes> Xiro: that's sudo apt-get install envyng-gtk
[00:35] <Fryguy--> xeer: works out of the box
[00:35] <Billll> =P
[00:36] <pw-toxic> AlphaXero: i dont know where to look for themes.. i mean the appearance of my windows and a top and bottom panel
[00:36] <xeer> WalloO, No as soon as I maximize I see the enlarging effect and instantly my monitor goes to standby. I assume the kernel is still running because my songs will play beyond the buffer but my attempts to restart X fail every time.
[00:36] <pw-toxic> GTK 2.x ?
[00:36] <WebcamWonder> pw-toxic: Yes
[00:36] <AlphaXero> Xiro, when you did add/remove, did you make sure it listed all available applications and not just open source?
[00:36] <pierreghi> marcelghisi
[00:36] <soundray> WebcamWonder: yes. man update-grub explains how and why
[00:36] <jamus> ichanged display to kde -howcan i change it back to gnome
[00:36] <WalloO> xeer, are all your fans working correctely?
[00:36] <AlphaXero> pw-toxic, the ibex theme will skin the panels too
[00:36] <Resnick> The camera is working, in a way. But camorama, vlc etc complain, whereas Skype picks up the video device on /dev/video0 no problem.
[00:36] <Xiro> ﻿AlphaXero: Yes
[00:37] <WalloO> xeer, it'S possible the software you use kill your video driver too.
[00:37] <WebcamWonder> soundray, and I am guessing it doesn't matter if I am under wubi, b/c it already has the hda(0,0)/ubuntu/disks anyways?
[00:37] <aestrivex> is it appropriate that a camera with an unsupported driver be not detected by any software
[00:37] <soundray> Resnick: at least your Dad will be able to see you :)
[00:37] <xeer> WalloO, I have 5 fans in working order. my cpu/mobo/gfx temp is normal
[00:37] <Resnick> soundray: Bright orange though! lol
[00:37] <aestrivex> i have a micro innovations iC455C webcam
[00:37] <mallinj> I'm having trouble getting my Wifi working on a Sony VAIO laptop (Atheros wireless chip)... MadWifi didn't work... neither did NdisWrapper... any ideas?
[00:38] <WalloO> xeer, ok.... that's strange. What is your video card?
[00:38] <xeer> WalloO, this is with every application I use that features a maximized version of the window. this is not specific to one program.
[00:38] <soundray> WebcamWonder: sorry, I can't help with wubi -- no idea how grub works there.
[00:38] <SebNaitsabes> !wifi
[00:38] <aestrivex> drivers appear to exist for micro innovations iC50C and iC200C
[00:38] <Xiro> ﻿AlphaXero: aah, nothing works, the hell with it, maybe thats  sign that 2Graphiccards aren't compatible with Linux
[00:38] <ubunuser> guys does anyone else know how to search for drivers in ubuntu? I know the driver I want. I'm not sure how to search for it in the apt-get system.
[00:38] <soundray> Resnick: which driver are you using?
[00:38] <mallinj> !wifi
[00:38] <SebNaitsabes> Xiro:  if you listend to me
[00:38] <WebcamWonder> soundray, ok, and the non-presence of "vga=xxx" will cause it to fail at usplash? b/c I am seeing the beautiful darkness during boot process :)
[00:38] <aestrivex> i'm unsure as to whether my driver will work or not at all
[00:38] <SebNaitsabes> Xiro:  and tryed the program I told you to get
[00:38] <Resnick> it's the uvcvideo driver.
[00:38] <sir_phobos> i was in here yesterday asking for help. when i try to install ubuntu with any of the possible discs, i run into some sort of bug before any installation begins. i have tried ubuntu 8.04 i386 alternate, ubuntu 8.04 i386 desktop live cd, ubuntu studio 8.04 i386 alternate. all of them show a bug soon after i select install (or disk check, etc...). the bug on ubuntu 8.04 i386 alternate is this - PCI: BIOS BUG #0[49435000] found... i have a SATA CDDVDW drive t
[00:38] <SebNaitsabes> Xiro:  wel yes you got a Nivida card?
[00:38] <WebcamWonder> soundray, by fail I mean no splash
[00:38] <xeer> WalloO, I am using an PCI-E ATi Radeon X1600XT. I have another card identical that produces the same results. The other card has never been used before.
[00:39] <Xiro> ﻿SebNaitsabes: It didn't work
[00:39] <AlphaXero> Xiro, priv msg
[00:39] <SebNaitsabes> Xiro: install it first, and  to open it you need to uhmmm
[00:39] <pw-toxic> AlphaXero: can you link me this theme? im not sure i'Ve found the right one ;)
[00:39] <soundray> WebcamWonder: do you actually see the grub menu at boot time, after you select Ubuntu from the NTLDR?
[00:39] <aestrivex> none of the programs can even find my webcam at all
[00:39] <AlphaXero> ok pw-toxic gimme a sec
[00:39] <Paddy_EIRE> Xiro, best way to make sure hardware works on linux is to find out before you actually buy the cards
[00:39] <Resnick> soundray: Picked it up first time in Ubuntu (Coming from Slackware) so I was impressed, and when I turn it on this evening the colours have gone bananas!
[00:39] <Paddy_EIRE> maybe
[00:39] <soundray> xeer: you have a faulty monitor
[00:39] <Miesco> Where are the .deb files stored?
[00:39] <aestrivex> and i dont really think that should be happening but i'm unsure if the driver is unsupported
[00:39] <Shaba2> ok folks. I have a laptop whose cd is just messed up. I cannot even get it to load up the windows cd
[00:39] <SebNaitsabes> Xiro: when it's installed in the terminal:  envyng-gtk  and enter
[00:40] <adamorjames> so
[00:40] <WalloO> xeer, it seems this is a problem with your ATI driver. You use ati driver restricted driver or opensource one?
[00:40] <AlphaXero> pw-toxic, http://blog.alexrybicki.com/2008/06/how-to-install-intrepid-ibex-theme-in.html
[00:40] <soundray> Miesco: cached in /var/cache/apt/archives/
[00:40] <Xiro> ﻿Paddy_EIRE: I didn't buy the card to have linux
[00:40] <Miesco> thanks
[00:40] <Resnick> Going to Grab easycam and see if it can ease my pain a bit here :)
[00:40] <Shaba2> I have the gparted live cd
[00:40] <Paddy_EIRE> Xiro, then why are you throwing a fit over your mistake??
[00:40] <pierrereimertz> Hello guys, i have a problem i need help with.
[00:40] <Shaba2> but even that will not repartition
[00:40] <adamorjames> I'm thinking this spell check thing is an Ubuntu feature... I need the dictionary files.. anyone know where I can get them?
[00:40] <WebcamWonder> soundray, Yes I do, it gives me the wait for 5 seconds etc and info about ntfs and intrid image, then it says Loading and goes on with usplash only to display a blank screen until gdm kicks in, and if I hit the tty1 combination, it does start to show me visual feedback regarding the boot process, which means blank screen if I don't hit tty1 until gdm kicks in
[00:40] <pierrereimertz> anyone who have some free time?
[00:40] <soundray> Resnick: it's sometimes worth compiling experimental drivers
[00:40] <sir_phobos> i was in here yesterday asking for help. when i try to install ubuntu with any of the possible discs, i run into some sort of bug before any installation begins. i have tried ubuntu 8.04 i386 alternate, ubuntu 8.04 i386 desktop live cd, ubuntu studio 8.04 i386 alternate. all of them show a bug soon after i select install (or disk check, etc...). the bug on ubuntu 8.04 i386 alternate is this - PCI: BIOS BUG #0[49435000] found... i have a SATA CDDVDW drive t
[00:40] <xeer> WalloO, fglrx is the restricted drivers. I've also tried the radeon drivers and the standard vesa. All work fine when maximizing except for fglrx.
[00:41] <Paddy_EIRE> !ask | pierrereimertz
[00:41] <Xiro> ﻿Paddy_EIRE: What?
[00:41] <Shaba2> because the ntfs partition has errors
[00:41] <Paddy_EIRE> Xiro, nothing mate
[00:41] <jamus> pierre ***** - just ask man
[00:41] <adamorjames> I'm thinking this spell check thing is an Ubuntu feature... I need the dictionary files.. anyone know where I can get them?
[00:41] <Shaba2> How can I format that HD
[00:41] <Paddy_EIRE> !gparted | Shaba2
[00:42] <soundray> WebcamWonder: like I say, I don't know exactly how wubi works, but it sounds to me like you're booting with NTLDR and bypassing grub
[00:42] <WalloO> xeer, I think I can't help you, since it seems this is clearly a problem with your driver.
[00:42] <SebNaitsabes> yep Wubi edits the WIndows boot loader
[00:42] <WebcamWonder> soundray, actually for wubi, you get a option of goin into grub from ntldr
[00:42] <xipietotec> anyone know of a fix for this? My sound dies randomly, neither restarting alsa nor pulseaudio has any effect of bringing it back up, only restarting does
[00:42] <soundray> WalloO: it's not a driver problem if BIOS POST messages aren't displayed ( xeer)
[00:42] <xeer> WalloO, This is a fresh install of Hardy Haron from two days ago, fglrx drivers are the latest ones from the ubuntu repository.
[00:42] <xipietotec> as in a full system restart
[00:43] <adamorjames> I need the spell check dictionary files please
[00:43] <aestrivex> i have a micro innovations iC445C webcam.  i can't find any supported drivers for this model, but iC200C and iC50C look like they're supported.  nonetheless none of the program's i've tried can even find my webcam at all.  is this an appropriate reaction to having an unavailable driver?
[00:43] <Paddy_EIRE> xipietotec, tried google, ubuntuforums or launchpad to see if you can shed light on the problem?
[00:43] <ubunuser> aestrivex: that is an appropriate outcome without the driver.
[00:44] <soundray> WebcamWonder: in that case, try editing your grub entry at boot time: hit 'e' when you get to the boot menu, then go to the kernel line and hit 'e' again, then edit it to your hearts desire. Return and
[00:44] <bo1> after I did update on ubuntu 8.0.4 I have no sound what should I do
[00:44] <sebastian> how do i change automatic spell check to swedish in openoffice writer?
[00:44] <sir_phobos> when i try to install ubuntu (with discs i have used in the past successfully) i run into some sort of bug before any installation begins. i have tried ubuntu 8.04 i386 alternate, ubuntu 8.04 i386 desktop live cd, ubuntu studio 8.04 i386 alternate. all of them show a bug soon after i select install (or disk check, etc...). the bug on ubuntu 8.04 i386 alternate is this - PCI: BIOS BUG #0[49435000] found... i have a SATA CDDVDW drive that i think may be the 
[00:44] <xipietotec> Paddy_EIRE, I usually start here as the forum is a mire to go through.
[00:44] <WalloO> soundray, if bios screen is not displayed, it means there is really a problem... and not in driver only
[00:44] <bo1> ﻿No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found

[00:44] <bo1> ﻿No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found
[00:44] <WalloO> xeer, have you tried to update your video bios?
[00:44] <adamorjames> can someone type "locate dictionary" and maybe find the directory of the dictionary files?
[00:44] <SebNaitsabes> probably a setting
[00:44] <soundray> WalloO: faulty hardware until proven otherwise
[00:44] <Shaba2> Paddy_EIRE:  You did not read what I typed

[00:44] <Paddy_EIRE> Shaba2, huh
[00:45] <Paddy_EIRE> ok
[00:45] <Shaba2> the problem is that gparted will NOt repartition that volume becasue it has errors
[00:45] <bo1> ﻿No volume control GStreamer plugins and/or devices found
[00:45] <WalloO> soundray, yes, or incompatibilty between different hardware... some time it happens
[00:45] <Paddy_EIRE> hmm
[00:45] <Shaba2> so I *think* I need to format that hd
[00:45] <xeer> WalloO, I'll see if there are any newer updates. Might report back shortly..

[00:51] <sir_phobos> when i try to install ubuntu (with discs i have used in the past successfully) i run into some sort of bug before any installation begins. i have tried ubuntu 8.04 i386 alternate, ubuntu 8.04 i386 desktop live cd, ubuntu studio 8.04 i386 alternate. all of them show a bug soon after i select install (or disk check, etc...). the bug on ubuntu 8.04 i386 alternate is this - PCI: BIOS BUG #0[49435000] found... i have a SATA CDDVDW drive that i think may be the

[00:52] <allymarie> .deb???
[00:52] <arvind_khadri> allymarie, yeah
[00:52] <soundray> !software > allymarie
[00:53] <arvind_khadri> soundray :)
[00:53] <allymarie> oh...debian
[00:53] <allymarie> that's where i should look then?
[00:53] <pierrereimertz> !ask
[00:53] <soundray> allymarie: not if you are in Ubuntu
[00:54] <arvind_khadri> allymarie, the update for gnutella is available , if you have the package gtk-gnutella you can update it to the latest version in the repos using using
[00:55] <rockerboi402> hey guys, i've got a question about aircrack-ng and the netgear wg311v3 wireless pci card.  anyone here familiar with those?
[00:55] <arvind_khadri> allymarie, am not sure about whether there are updates,i wanted to mean something else though...
[00:55] <pw-toxic> AlphaXero: i dont like this theme ;)
[00:55] <m-c> sir_phobos: Have you tried updating your BIOS, have you tried booting with acpi=off as a grub parameter, also try pci=biosirq or pci=direct?  Can you boot to the LiveCD?
[00:56] <pw-toxic> i dont know how to install an theme i downloaded from gnome-look.org
[00:56] <pw-toxic> GTK 2.x
[00:56] <Shaba2> Basically I need a way of fromating the hard drive.
[00:56] <rockerboi402> :-/
[00:57] <Shaba2> it does NOT have an OS on it right now
[00:57] <imaginator> hi.  I'm trying to figure out how to setup a network.  I have modem/router setup as 192.168.0.1, and a wireless router plugged into the modem and setup as 192.168.0.2.  I think the wireless is using DMZ, and I'm wondering how I might run a server on a wireless machine.  Does the DMZ completely negate that beyond what is on the wireless, or could I forward some ports?
[00:57] <ubunubi> imaginator: running a server on a wireless connection isn't advised
[00:58] <xipietotec> when installing the adobe installer for flash 10, should I install to /usr/lib/firefox or /usr/lib/firefox-3.0 ?
[00:58] <soundray> imaginator: is it possible that you are confused about what DMZ means?
[00:58] <xipietotec> imaginator, DMZ means nothing is filtered, at all
[00:58] <imaginator> soundray: yes.  It's a demilitarized zone, but I'm not completely sure how that affects things with this.
[00:58] <imaginator> xipietotec: ok, so no NAT essentially?
[00:59] <xipietotec> imaginator, basically its saying "No firewall here, forward everything."
[00:59] <imaginator> ah
[00:59] <ubunuser> Guys I see a driver that is available on sourceforge. I have not found apt-cache search rtl8180 result for it. Is there any other way to install drivers in Ubuntu. Or it's just not there....
[00:59] <pw-toxic> AlphaXero: u still there? ;)
[01:00] <rockerboi402> Anyone familiar with aircrack-ng?
[01:00] <soundray> ubunuser: is this a wireless card?
[01:00] <ubunuser> soundray: it is.
[01:00] <xipietotec> ubunuser, do you have restricted-extras installed?
[01:00] <imaginator> xipietotec: so how does it resolve the ambiguity of say machine A and machine B both serving www on port 80?  I tried to connect to an sshd without any success unfortunately earlier.
[01:00] <soundray> ubunuser: have you looked at the help pages?
[01:00] <soundray> !wifi > ubunuser
[01:00] <allymarie> there is an update for gnutella from 96.4 to 96.5....i have the update i just don't know how to fix the ancient version....get rid of 96.4 and just all over with 96.5? that seems the easiest thing to do
[01:01] <imaginator> xipietotec: if say machines A and B are on the DMZ network
[01:01] <ubunuser> xipietotec: no I have the basic install. So maybe those aren't there.
[01:01] <clintchance> Is there a dlink channel?
[01:01] <ubunuser> soundray: I have google. but not specifically looked at ubuntu help pages....
[01:01] <pierrereimertz> How do i check if my kernel support hfs+ ?
[01:01] <xipietotec> imaginator, if something is dmz'd, it doesn't. it doesn't really try and resolve anything, so yes, it's completely possible to pose as someone else, and block them out of sending packets.
[01:01] <imaginator> oh
[01:02] <ubunuser> soundray: ok seeing the wireless stuff. Thanks. :) I'll read thru and hopefully get it workin'.
[01:02] <soundray> allymarie: you should familiarize yourself with the way software is installed on Ubuntu, then install one of the gnutella packages available from the Ubuntu repositories. Use the pm you have received.
[01:02] <xipietotec> so if you spoofed yourself to be other person on port 80, you'd be able to override their traffic.
[01:02] <ApenasEu> howdy, i need a bit of help with wine, other than the website, anywere i can go to get some help?
[01:03] <SebNaitsabes> yep
[01:03] <SebNaitsabes> #winehq
[01:03] <ApenasEu> thanks a bunch :)
[01:03] <soundray> ubunuser: this won't necessarily solve your troubles, but it'll enable you to ask a more specific question. I think your device may be supported by ubuntu natively -- no separate drivers needed.
[01:03] <imaginator> xipietotec: I see.  I wonder if it would just be better to setup this to use NAT with port forwarding.  The modem/router this wireless is plugged in to, uses NAT.  What are your thoughts on that?  I would like to run a game server and other things over the wireless.
[01:04] <xipietotec> imaginator, it's allmost never a good idea to use DMZ, unless you are doing some bizzare security research stuff.
[01:04] <Shaba2> Hello folks
[01:04]  * soundray ponders bizarre honeypots
[01:04] <xipietotec> or unless you have a good firewall on your end, and the router's firewall is screwing with it
[01:05] <xipietotec> but even then there's usually a "turn firewall off" option, that doesn't involve activating the DMZ.
[01:05] <ubunubi> imaginator: running game servers on a wireless connection makes baby jesus cry. you'll be adding 200-500+ms of lag to everything
[01:05] <soundray> Hi Shaba2
[01:05] <Shaba2> can someone tell me how to format a hd that has no boot record
[01:05] <alpharesearch> Please tell me if you know a inexpensive usb bluetooth adapter that works with Ubuntu 8.04, thank you.
[01:05] <Shaba2> hello sound soundray
[01:06] <xipietotec> anyone know if I should install flash 10 to /usr/lib/firefox or firefox-3.0 ?
[01:06] <soundray> Shaba2: use gparted. Create a default (msdos) disk label and partitions. Format the partitions.
[01:06] <imaginator> xipietotec: ok.  I may change it.  Thanks for the advice.  by the way, when/if we all move to IPv6 I've heard they did away with NAT.  Have you ever setup an IPv6 network like this?
[01:06] <jsm> If I run NDISWrapper for Wifi, must I also install WPASupplicant to scan for wireless networks?
[01:06] <bo1> no sound
[01:06] <bo1> no sound plz help
[01:06] <Xylander> !ohno
[01:07] <imaginator> ubunubi: I hadn't thought of that.  Is wireless lag really that bad?
[01:07] <bo1> ubuntu is GAY
[01:07] <spork969> i have my guitar hooked up to my amp, then out of the amp's headphone jack, i have a quarter inch to eighth inch stereo cable. However, when i try to record a sound using sound recorder, it sounds like crap. Any way to change the recording levels?
[01:07] <Billll> alright trying to install wireless card on ubuntu, popped Cd into cd drive, popup came up and I have to click autorun.exe, did that and program is not installing, I may be doing soemthing wrong can anybody help...
[01:07] <bo1> nothing works
[01:07] <bo1> no sound
[01:07] <spork969> bo1, chillax
[01:07] <xipietotec> imaginator, I have had no real experience with IPv6, although the guys in ##networking probably know quite a bit about it
[01:07] <tully> hi i recently installed ubuntu and when I try to load up the windows cd after it says inspecting hardware it just goes blank. I did some research and it seems it messes up because it can't recognize ext3 and linux swap partitions. I tried added a fat32 partition and it was still unable to read. Is there any way I could fix this?
[01:07] <ubunubi> imaginator: for latency sensitive applications, like online FPS games (world of warcraft, counterstrike, etc) it is pretty bad
[01:07] <imaginator> xipietotec: ok, thanks. I didn't know there even was a ##networking :)
[01:07] <TeslaTony> bo1: You mean it has great style, excellent taste, is a great dancer, and very buff?
[01:08] <ubunubi> imaginator: if you're playing something like starcraft or a slower game, maybe not as much
[01:08] <c0mrade> hahaha
[01:08] <arvind_khadri> bo1 check alsamixer...type it in the terminal and see whether all levels are up
[01:08] <Dr_willis> tully,  ive never seen that issue. - windows alwas wants to format my ext3/swap. what version of windows are you trying to install?
[01:08] <arvind_khadri> TeslaTony, he means its sucks
[01:08] <alpharesearch> did anybody ever use a USB Bluetooth adapter with Linux?
[01:08] <tully> windows xp
[01:08] <xipietotec> in general, for any server that requires graphics: wireless == bad. Fiber optic is your friend.
[01:08] <bo1> alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory
[01:08] <soundray> !pm | Shaba2
[01:08] <TeslaTony> arvind_khadri: Please don't ruin my fun with the troll

[01:09] <FloodBot1> bo1: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:09] <Shaba2> Ok I will do that
[01:09] <Crema10> hello everybody
[01:09] <Shaba2> but I did not want to disturb the room
[01:09] <Dr_willis> tully,  ya could leave part of the hard drive unallocated.. windows might see and ask to use that. Normally one installs windows first to the first, primary partition of the HD. then linux to the other parts.
[01:09] <Shaba2> soundray: I have a gparted live cd
[01:09] <xipietotec> Woot, floodbot is a great improvement over the old channel bot behavior
[01:09] <arvind_khadri> TeslaTony, :) oops sorry i didnt know he was,i was going to help him out
[01:09] <Shaba2> How do I do what you said
[01:09] <Shaba2> I can use the cd to boot to a gparted screen
[01:09] <MarieK> Hello! im very new to Ubuntu, i want to connect my external HFS drive to my computer, but it dosent work. I read about kernels that maybe my kernel dosent support HFS filesystem. How do i check that?
[01:09] <sir_phobos> m-c: i can't boot into the live cd, the furthest i can get is into the menu. i don't have a floppy or usb stick to update my bios, is there a way to do it in vista? those grub parameters you listed, where do i add those? hit F6 at the install menu and just add them to the end?
[01:09] <tully> ya that's what I should have done. I didn't plan on duel booting til after my linux installs.
[01:10] <soundray> Shaba2: that's great, you'll have no trouble following my suggestion then, if you have a quick browse through the gparted menus
[01:10] <arvind_khadri> soundray, the same thing can be done through cfdisk too
[01:10] <Shaba2> ok
[01:10] <xipietotec> MarieK, what kernel are you using
[01:10] <jsm> I'm having a really tough time getting my Wifi to work in Ubuntu... can someone help out a newbie, namely me?
[01:10] <arvind_khadri> soundray, just a suggestion...
[01:10] <ubunubi> tully: if windows isn't on the first primary partition -- you're going to have to have grub installed to your MBR to be able to chainload windows off another partition
[01:11] <soundray> arvind_khadri: no need to tell me. Mind you, Shaba2 has a gparted live CD already, so your suggestion would actually be a detour.
[01:11] <Shaba2> that is like saying that since 	know what and air plane is that I can fly one
[01:11] <imaginator> tully: I had a lot of problems trying to install Windows XP after GNU/Linux and BSD years ago, though it may have been the custom Dell install.  It seems to work better if you install WIndows first, unfortunately.  I had much better luck with NT4 and Win95 installs before XP
[01:11] <MarieK> xipietotec, 2.6.24
[01:11] <arvind_khadri> soundray, oh ok :)
[01:11] <ricard1> How i access a svn with dav authentication: url http://192.168.0.158/var/svn/ricardo user: ricardo password: ricardo, it should be anything like svn co ricardo@192.168.0.158/var/svn/ricardo, but it doesn't work
[01:12] <arvind_khadri> soundray,  i jus said that as i find it easier to be with CLi ...
[01:12] <xipietotec> !hsf+
[01:12] <soundray> Shaba2: no, that's like saying I'm not going to spoonfeed you. There will be some (very small amount of) work that you will have to do yourself.
[01:12] <xipietotec> !hsf
[01:12] <xipietotec> I thought hsf+ was recognized by default...
[01:12] <soundray> arvind_khadri: cfdisk isn't cli
[01:12] <ubunubi> xipietotec: it is
[01:12] <ubunubi> xipietotec: atleast in hardy
[01:12] <erat123> anyone know when the new compiz-fusion desktop cylinder is going to hit the repositories?
[01:12] <Shaba2> then why even attempt to answer then
[01:12] <MarieK> xipietotec, i can see my drivers, but not mount them..
[01:12] <xipietotec> MarieK, what version of ubuntu are you using?
[01:12] <rockerboi402> can anyone help with aircrack-ng?
[01:13] <Deecodeuh1> What are you trying to hack?
[01:13] <arvind_khadri> soundray, :D gee ya ... but then it aint a GTK one too ;)
[01:13] <rockerboi402> WEP
[01:13] <MarieK> xipietotec, ohh, its xubuntu..
[01:13] <SB> Does anyone have any links where I can read about the terminal thing?
[01:13] <xipietotec> MarieK, ah, I'm not sure that xubuntu has an automounting tool like in gnome
[01:13] <arvind_khadri> erat123, #compiz will know that better i guess
[01:14] <xipietotec> you might have to edit your fstab
[01:14] <soundray> Shaba2: I'm offering to help, but I'm not offering to do your work for you.
[01:14] <MarieK> xipietotec its so irritating.. because its my sons problem.. he want to connect this drive to his ps3
[01:14] <erat123> arvind_khadri: thanks!  i'll give them a try
[01:14] <arvind_khadri> erat123, welcome :)
[01:15] <imaginator> is there any chance of the legacy nvidia drivers working in Ubuntu with 8.04?  I have 2 video cards, a GeForce 2, and GeForce 4, and for some reason the legacy drivers result in black screens and I have to restore the xorg.conf or s/nvidia/nv/g.  With 7.10 and earlier releases Ubuntu was fine.
[01:15] <MarieK> xipietotec, he installed this "custom" kernel so he can use wifi.
[01:15] <taso_> hey guys, so I'm having a lot of trouble with OpenVPN on my Lenovo T61p, WinXP SP3... I have it installed on my other Lenovo X40 with it running fine, so I know it's not the VPN's problem.  Whenever I start the VPN, it only works for 1-2 minutes, then my internet locks up.  Does anyone have a clue as to what this might be?  I've tried disabling anti-virus, etc... the connection usually drops about 1-2 minutes into the connection.
[01:15] <soundray> SB: the terminal thing? Maybe this will help...
[01:15] <soundray> !cli > SB
[01:15] <taso_> I'm on Ubuntu 8.04 now, however, and I get the same problem.
[01:15] <sir_phobos> m-c: i can't boot into the live cd, the furthest i can get is into the menu. i don't have a floppy or usb stick to update my bios, is there a way to do it in vista? those grub parameters you listed, where do i add those? hit F6 at the install menu and just add them to the end?
[01:15] <xipietotec> MarieK, I'd ask in #xubuntu I'm not very familiar with xubuntu's user space tools. If the kernel is customized, he may not have the drivers in it.
[01:15] <SB> !cli > SB
[01:16] <Billll> can anybody provide me with a wine download, apprently I need to run wireless setup off wine
[01:16] <SB> wtf
[01:16] <MarieK> xipietotec, ok. but is it possible to install ubuntu over xubuntu?
[01:16] <SebNaitsabes> a Wine download ah yes
[01:16] <Double0doug> Hey, I'm having problems getting Nvidia drivers installed.  Would someone mind giving me a hand?
[01:16] <SebNaitsabes> get it from their site
[01:16] <LogicalDash> I'm trying to get into a website that requires Java, but keeps telling me that I don't have it and directing me to download the Windows installer for it. I'm guessing it's checking for Java using methods that only work on Windows. Can I make my Ubuntu machine past this test anyway?
[01:16] <SebNaitsabes> http://www.winehq.org
[01:16] <bazhang> MarieK, yes
[01:16] <SebNaitsabes> http://www.winehq.org
[01:16] <FloodBot1> SebNaitsabes: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:16] <xipietotec> MarieK, Yes, it's possible to install normal ubuntu through synaptic
[01:16] <soundray> SB: do not use this abbreviation here
[01:16] <MarieK> xipietotec without ereasing the kernel?
[01:16] <Billll> I'm a noice to wine
[01:16] <xipietotec> MarieK, yes, kernels are a separate issue to user tools
[01:16] <soundray> SB: you have received a private message from ubottu
[01:17] <SB> Ok sorry
[01:17] <xipietotec> gnome / xfce / kde are userspace
[01:17] <xipietotec> nothing to do with the kernel
[01:17] <imaginator> MarieK: I had problems with xubuntu initially, and I managed to install Ubuntu over xubuntu, just by changing the package selection with synaptic or aptitude (package managers), so it should be quite possible.
[01:17] <SB> soundray i see
[01:17] <soundray> SB: can you see it now?
[01:17] <SB> yess
[01:17] <SB> sb: thanks
[01:17] <SebNaitsabes> maybe you got to get LInux using the Windows wireless driver
[01:17] <MarieK> xipietotec, ok! i try that. thanks everybody! Hope i dont need to get here again. ;)
[01:17] <SebNaitsabes> if it's possible for the one you have with say ndiswrapper
[01:17] <bo1> nooooooooooooooooo sound
[01:18] <bo1> ubuntu gay
[01:18] <soundray> SB: you can ask ubottu for help yourself: /msg ubottu keyword
[01:18] <xipietotec> everyone needs to get here eventually
[01:18] <SB> soundray: really? isn't it a bot ?
[01:18] <rockerboi402> does ndiswrapper and aircrack-ng work together?
[01:18] <bazhang> bo1, please take that elsewhere
[01:18] <imaginator> bo1: what you posted earlier indicated the device doesn't open.  Please don't insult Ubuntu.  we're here to help
[01:18] <soundray> bo1: great, you diss my favourite OS. I'm really keen to help you out now.
[01:18] <MarieK> Thats true.. haha
[01:19] <soundray> SB: it is, but it will reply to /msg
[01:19] <Miesco> rockerboi402: No, you need linux drivers to make your card go into monitor mode
[01:19] <imaginator> bo1: do you know if your sound card is supported?  What type of sound card is it?
[01:19] <soundray> imaginator: please hold back to see if he stops trolling
[01:19] <imaginator> ok
[01:20] <Billll> ubuntu has wine preinstalled?
[01:20] <bazhang> Billll, no
[01:20] <arvind_khadri> Billll, no
[01:20] <Billll> nutz
[01:20] <bo1> UFCK
[01:20] <soundray> Billll: no. 'sudo apt-get install wine' does it, though
[01:20] <soundray> !language | bo1

[01:20] <rockerboi402> Miesco:  what drivers?  I've tried many different searches in google. I have a WG311v3 Netgear card.  The official Aircrack-ng says it isn't currently supported because it uses Marvel drivers, but i've read on ubuntu forums that people have gotten it working...just not how
[01:20] <SB> soundray can i use lol? or LOLZORS?

[01:22] <LogicalDash> ibou_: that's probably what's keeping you on the internet right now
[01:22] <bozrob> i googled the error & there is no solution
[01:22] <bozrob> halp
[01:22] <bozrob> error is; err:msi:copy_package_to_temp failed to copy package L"SteamInstall.msi"

[01:23] <MarieK> Sorry.. i dont understand how im supposed to install ubuntu OVER xubuntu..
[01:23] <soundray> SB: thanks, I'm doing my best
[01:23] <arvind_khadri> MarieK, sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[01:23] <Double0doug>  I get an error msg when I follow the instructions for Heron: o to System->Administration->Hardware Drivers and check the box to enable the restricted drivers for your nVidia card if the option is provided.
[01:23] <bo1> this is UBUNTU is ACTION http://media.ebaumsworld.com/picture/SaltyMexican/bush_buttfuck_fx.jpg
[01:24] <LogicalDash> ibou_: I don't know about this one in particular, but daemon processes often serve to relaunch the main process in case it crashes, and perform various control functions
[01:24] <soundray> SB: I model myself after ubottu
[01:24] <MarieK> arvind_khadri, no.. :) i want to install Ubuntu over Xubuntu. I have xubuntu, but i want Ubuntu instead
[01:24] <rockerboi402> so to get a netgear wg311v3 to do monitor mode i need to remove ndiswrapper and install somethign different?
[01:24] <ibou_> LogicalDash: ok thanks
[01:25] <bazhang> MarieK, ubuntu-desktop is what you need to install
[01:25] <Paddy_EIRE> MarieK, then do "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop"
[01:25] <SB> soundray: oh look what it says in the community doc:  "For some tasks, especially things like system configuration it makes sense to use the terminal, and you'll probably have seen instructions on help pages or forums similar to:
[01:25] <SB> sudo gobbledegook blah_blah -w -t -f aWkward/ComBinationOf/mixedCase/underscores_strokes/and.dots"
[01:25] <arvind_khadri> MarieK, oh sorry am half awake .... sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[01:25] <MarieK> ok, thanks
[01:25] <MarieK> arvind_khadri, no problems! Thanks everyone. :)

[01:27] <LogicalDash> ibou_: sounds like a good idea to me, you don't want it changing around what you just did

[01:28] <tekryan> I have a couple rpm's on desktop and want to install the things
[01:28] <rockerboi402> can someone suggest an alternate irc channel that might help with aircrack-ng
[01:28] <LogicalDash> tekryan: you need to use alien
[01:28] <bazhang> tekryan, what packages? best to look in repos first
[01:28] <Fjss> Logicaldash: I thought -386 was !386 and -generic was X86/X86_64
[01:29] <LogicalDash> tekryan: better yet, find debian packages instead

[01:29] <ibou_> to connect i use the command iwconfig wlan0 essid <my essid> key <mykey> is that correct ?
[01:29] <tekryan> so i don't want rpm's or waht
[01:29] <soundray> tekryan: sudo alien
[01:29] <bazhang> tekryan, packages.ubuntu.com or apt-cache search package in terminal are good place to look
[01:30] <soundray> !alien | tekryan
[01:30] <IndyGunFreak> tekryan: what are the rpms you're trying to install.
[01:30] <ubunubi> benjgvps: make sure to read:: man pppd before asking questions
[01:30] <arvind_khadri> tekryan, which package do you want to install ??
[01:30] <Double0doug> it looks like there was just a problem connecting to the repository.

[01:31] <ubunubi> tek:: sudo apt-get install alien
[01:31] <bazhang> tekryan, tell us the exact package names
[01:31] <IndyGunFreak> tekryan: alien is a HORRIBLE idea, what are you trying to install that needs an RPM?
[01:31] <soundray> tekryan: no pasting please
[01:31] <arvind_khadri> tekryan, you need not use alien its harmful..
[01:31] <LogicalDash> tekryan: if you need to show us a bunch of text, use paste.ubuntu.com

[01:33] <Mango420> Hi Room. I have currently installed Apache and PHP5 via Synaptic Package Manager. However when I access PHP files via http://127.0.0.1/index.php it wants to open or save the file rather then display it. Any idea why? Thanks.
[01:33] <LogicalDash> tekryan: those are tarballs, not RPMS
[01:33] <Dream> server...hosting websites, any apps i can use?
[01:33] <tekryan> sorry was looking at ss for fedora
[01:33] <LogicalDash> tekryan: in order to install them you'll need to extract each individually and follow the install instructions therein
[01:33] <tekryan> i can't do all 3 at once?
[01:34] <LOWER_CASE> To save buying a firewall router to protect my family's Windoze boxes, can I set up one Ubuntu/Linux box as a gateway/firewall? (I've got a switch, but not a router)
[01:34] <tvrtko> is there an app for mounting .bin .cue files
[01:34] <LogicalDash> tekryan: nope, not with tarballs. If you could find Debian packages for each of those programs, then you could do them all at once.
[01:34] <bazhang> tvrtko, vlc can play them
[01:34] <LLMP> what is better ubuntu or kubuntu
[01:34] <tekryan> ok, i'll attempt this brb sec
[01:34] <soundray> tvrtko: I don't think so, but you can convert them to .iso
[01:34] <bazhang> llmp both are good
[01:34] <Dr_willis> tvrtko,  the 'fusesiso' tools claim to be able to do that.  but dont expect game copy protection to work. if they are games.
[01:34] <soundray> !info bchunk | tvrtko
[01:34] <Dr_willis> !fuseiso
[01:34] <LLMP> what is the different
[01:34] <Dr_willis> !find fuseiso
[01:35] <bazhang> llmp one is kde the other gnome
[01:35] <arvind_khadri> LLMP, ubuntu has by default GNOME and kubuntu has KDE
[01:35] <bazhang> llmp please take chat to #ubuntu-offtopic
[01:35] <LLMP> ok
[01:35] <joel_> is there a way to get the default dekstop icons that were in feisty in hardy
[01:35] <tvrtko> Dr_willis yeah its a game
[01:35] <tvrtko> Dr_willis yeah its a game
[01:35] <navetz__> where can I find help with some flash development (actionscript 3)
[01:35] <tvrtko> Dr_willis on 2 cds
[01:36] <benjgvps> LOWER_CASE, take a look at monowall
[01:36] <Dr_willis> tvrtko, if having install issues, locking the drive. I often copyu the contents of both cd's to a folder. and start the wine installer.exe from that dir.
[01:36] <tvrtko> i think ill try with bchunk tnx ubottu
[01:36] <nickolaus> I am trying to hack into my home network for shits and giggles what are the tools to start with?
[01:36] <Mango420> Hi Room. I have currently installed Apache and PHP5 via Synaptic Package Manager. However when I access PHP files via http://127.0.0.1/index.php it wants to open or save the file rather then display it. Any idea why? Thanks.

[01:37] <alpharesearch> did anybody ever use a USB Bluetooth adapter with Linux?
[01:37] <bazhang> nickolaus, no cursing and that is beyond the scope of this channel
[01:37] <arvind_khadri> alpharesearch, i think its better you google on it
[01:37] <nickolaus> bazhang is there a channel that would address this question?
[01:37] <LogicalDash> tekryan: in the event that you do find Debian packages, the command "sudo -ivh" will not install them. In fact, it won't do anything at all, since the h means it'll print a help message and exit. Try "gdebi [package name]"
[01:37] <bazhang> !bluetooth | alpharesearch
[01:38] <joel_> i mean like the home shortcut and computer shortcut on the desktop
[01:38] <bazhang> nickolaus, just not here, you can check freenode for channel list
[01:38] <hdevalence> I'm looking for a program which will let me view ESRI shapefiles (.shp) and searching in Adept gives me a bunch of different libraries (libmapnik, libgeos, libgdal, etc) but I can't seem to find any actual programs. Can anyone suggest one?
[01:38] <bazhang> !irc | nickolaus
[01:39] <joel_> is my question that stupid?
[01:39] <bazhang> joel_, you want the feisty icons?
[01:40] <Dr_willis> joel_,  you can just drag/drop make links to whever ya want on the desktop.
[01:40] <joel_> oh
[01:40] <paco_> if I want to create a NTFS partition since the livecd, What kind of partition I have to choose ?
[01:40] <joel_> hehe
[01:40] <tvrtko> i did convert .bin .cue with bchunk and it works :)
[01:40] <joel_> i feel like a complete idiot right now
[01:40] <Billll> http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/archive/index.html  <--- does it matter which one I download for ubuntu meaning, lpia, 1386 or amd64
[01:41] <hdevalence> Billll: yes
[01:41] <bazhang> Billll, you have 32bit or 64 bit ubuntu
[01:41] <Gman99999> Amarok just effed up my entire ipod music collection, I tried uploading one song and now that's all there is on the entire effing ipod, wtf?  Ontop of that the sound file doesnt even work, there must be a way to rememdy this, does anyone know?
[01:41] <Billll> since the system is older I beleive a 32 or assume it is ;/
[01:42] <LogicalDash> Billll: then you probably want the i386 package
[01:42] <bazhang> Billll, then i386
[01:42] <Billll> alright I got it
[01:42] <bazhang> Gman99999, not enough info
[01:42] <Billll> what's the diffrent between these program anyways?
[01:42] <ibou_> at the end of vmware tools set up i have this message: This configuration program is to be executed in a virtual machine
[01:42] <tekryan> ok, so now I installed something to my desktop with sudo and there is a lock on the icon and apparently I can't change the permissions becaue I am not the owner
[01:42] <ibou_> but i dont know how to run it in a virtual machine
[01:42] <bazhang> tekryan, what are the exact package names
[01:42] <hdevalence> Gman99999: you could also try in #amarok
[01:43] <Gman99999> bazhang ok well I'm going to plug in the ipod, I just transfered one wav file and amarok didnt even properly display my music collection when i connected to the ipod
[01:43] <tekryan> bazhang, nxserver-3.2.0-13.x86_64.tar.gz
[01:43] <LogicalDash> tekryan: that's still a tarball
[01:43] <joel_> ok, say i want to get a filesystem shortcut on the desktop... how do i do that?
[01:43] <LogicalDash> tekryan: you want something that ends with .deb
[01:43] <tekryan> problem is
[01:43] <tekryan> i did the unzip or w/e from terminal
[01:44] <tekryan> with sudo
[01:44] <bazhang> Gman99999, this first time use with amarok and iPod?
[01:44] <LogicalDash> tekryan: uh, you don't need sudo unless you're changing critical system files
[01:44] <tekryan> as they described on site, and it made a icon with a lock on my desktop that I can't delete
[01:44] <Gman99999> bazhang no Ive successfully uploaded music onto it before
[01:44] <tekryan> so how do i unsudo this file
[01:44] <LogicalDash> tekryan: for simple operations like unzipping files you can just do them using your ordinary user priviliges
[01:44] <tekryan> so i can delete it
[01:44] <LogicalDash> tekryan: sudo rm [filename]
[01:45] <LOWER_CASE> Can I set up a Ubuntu/Linux box as a firewall/gateway without going to a separate PC box such as monowall, smoothwall, etc?  Would I need two NICs?
[01:45] <tekryan> thanks LogicalDash
[01:45] <bazhang> Gman99999, including wav?
[01:45] <Billll> alright I'm going to install wine on ubuntu, first time installer on linux anythnig I should know?
[01:45] <LogicalDash> tekryan: sudo has the effect of logging you on as a different user, called "root", and root is basically God, He can do whatever he wants with every single file on the system
[01:45] <Billll> <--- have  never messed with the linux terminal before
[01:45] <bazhang> Billll, sudo apt-get install wine
[01:45] <Billll> baz: have no clue what that is
[01:45] <Gman99999> bazhang no I dont believe ive ever uploaded a wav file onto it
[01:46] <tekryan> ok, so now it says that it can't unsudo it because it's a directory
[01:46] <LogicalDash> tekryan: and since he is in fact a different user than you are, any files he creates are recorded as belonging to him... so you, the ordinary user, can't touch them
[01:46] <bazhang> Billll, alt f2 gnome-terminal type it there
[01:46] <bazhang> Gman99999, then there is your issue
[01:46] <Billll> thank you
[01:46] <LogicalDash> tekryan: to delete directories, add -r to the rm command
[01:46] <bazhang> np
[01:46] <LogicalDash> tekryan: so that would give you "sudo rm -r [directory]"
[01:46] <Gman99999> I just tried to connect to my ipod from amarok and it said that the device is locked
[01:47] <tekryan> LogicalDash, what would happen if I didn't want to delete that but if I just wanted to remove sudo
[01:47] <bazhang> Gman99999, did you recently upgrade firmware?
[01:47] <bazhang> tekryan, dont remove sudo
[01:47] <Gman99999> bazhang nope
[01:48] <ibou_> is it possible to get the deb files on ubuntu servers without installing them ?
[01:48] <Gman99999> bazhang i haven't done anything in a long time
[01:48] <ernesto_> hi! my newly installed 8.04 cannot play system sounds
[01:48] <LogicalDash> tekryan: for that you need to change the owner: "sudo chmod ryan [file]"
[01:48] <allymarie> where is suprie??
[01:48] <LogicalDash> oops
[01:48] <bazhang> Gman99999, when was the last time? we talking gutsy, or on hardy
[01:48] <LogicalDash> tekryan: that should have been "sudo chown ryan [file]"
[01:48] <bozrob> no
[01:49] <Gman99999> hardy
[01:49] <allymarie> ﻿where is suprie??
[01:49] <Gman99999> few months ago
[01:49] <tekryan> thanks, LogicalDash...now it tells me to take these tarballs and put them in /usr ... is that necessary or can I just do this from desktop
[01:49] <allymarie> i need some help and keep getting computer responses
[01:49] <tvrtko> question about wine: when i run a game theres a file menu on top. how can i hide it?
[01:50] <bazhang> Gman99999, unmount ipod and disconnect it, then quit amarok fully (not just to system tray), reconnect ipod then start up amarok again (be sure to remove ipod safely)
[01:50] <LogicalDash> tekryan: well, I dunno, if the tarball has compiled binaries in it, you might just want to copy them in place. For which you'll probably need sudo again.
[01:50] <bazhang> allymarie, what is the issue

[01:52] <TruJasper> and its on my start up with Windows XP
[01:52] <Gman99999> bazhang yes
[01:52] <bazhang> TruJasper, just take out the cd when you reboot
[01:52] <Gman99999> bazhang i just did everything you asked
[01:52] <TruJasper> Yes.
[01:52] <LogicalDash> tekryan: ah, I see. No, it's probably not important to put them in /usr
[01:52] <eek_> #ubuntu-pt
[01:52] <TruJasper> Its there even without the CD.
[01:53] <bazhang> TruJasper, you installed?

[01:56] <alexbobp> DarkAudit: I'm willing to reinstall a lot of programs, but I'd like to keep all my config files.
[01:56] <oldos2er> alexbobp, you need to install the entire 64-bit version of Ubuntu
[01:56] <alexbobp> oldos2er: so does that mean I need to reinstall then?
[01:56] <allymarie> ﻿repos gtk-gnutella?
[01:56] <bazhang> Gman99999, it is not gone, just no showing up do to a firmware lock in iPod (ie your files are still there)
[01:56] <TruJasper> Bazhang, whats wubi?
[01:57] <oldos2er> alexbobp, Yeah, you'd need ot reinstall
[01:57] <alexbobp> oldos2er: okay, then I guess I'll do that
[01:57] <Gman99999> bazhang ok so how do i restore it to its original state?
[01:57] <bazhang> allymarie, install the program gtk-gnutella from within ubuntu repositories (repos)=software warehouses
[01:57] <DarkAudit> alexbobp: set aside all your . files and folders in a safe place, and put back after?
[01:57] <alexbobp> spikemcc: I wanted to use xen with vanderpool acceleration, so I think that's a good enough reason
[01:57] <bazhang> allymarie, also in the future append people nicknames to your responses or they will be lost
[01:57] <alexbobp> DarkAudit: Thanks.  I've reinstalled before, and I just copy over my whole home directory, I just wanted to avoid the hassle
[01:58] <alexbobp> and by copy over I mean symlink, because I'm lazy
[01:58] <TruJasper> anyone know what wubi is?
[01:58] <allymarie> sorry about that BAZHANG am just alittle frustrated with this thing
[01:58] <bazhang> allymarie, open a terminal alt f2 gnome-terminal and type sudo apt-get install gtk-gnutella
[01:58] <bozrob> i do
[01:58] <LogicalDash>  !wubi | TruJasper
[01:58] <joel_> wubi is a program used to install ubuntu so u don't have to create another partition
[01:58] <TruJasper> Oh
[01:58] <TruJasper> no
[01:58] <DarkAudit> alexbobp: I just replaced FC9 with Hardy yesterday... put a lot of config files on my external drive, then put back... saved quite a bit of time
[01:58] <TruJasper> I want to remove windows XP
[01:58] <oldos2er> Trujasper, wubi is a program to install ubuntu inside a windows partition
[01:58] <TruJasper> but I dont no how
[01:59] <ShinjinAkage> I've having trouble with my system monitor. It is half as long as the window for it is. The test is rainbow and I must still click far enough to the right to click where it would be if it were full size. What's wrong?
[01:59] <TruJasper> Sorry for asking.
[01:59] <tekryan> Do I need permissions to move something to the /usr directory
[01:59] <alexbobp> TruJasper: wubi puts the linux filesystem on the windows filesystem as a single file so you don't have to repartition
[01:59] <bazhang> TruJasper, get the gparted live cd and delete the partition xp is on
[01:59] <TruJasper> DO you know how I can remove my windows XP
[01:59] <HappyHater> reformat
[01:59] <alexbobp> TruJasper: if you want to remove windows, then wubi won't help.
[01:59] <TruJasper> gparted
[01:59] <TruJasper> ?
[01:59] <bazhang> !gparted
[01:59] <bazhang> TruJasper, ^^
[01:59] <LogicalDash> TruJasper: you run the LiveCD and install Ubuntu in the normal way; when it asks you how you want to format your disk, select Use Entire Disk
[01:59] <joel_> u can just use the install dvd for ubuntu
[01:59] <joel_> that's what i did
[02:00] <oldos2er> Trujasper, use the 'guided - use entire disk' option of Ubuntu's installer
[02:00] <alexbobp> TruJasper: back up all your data first, since you'll lose everything currently on the hard drive
[02:00] <bazhang> allymarie, always try to install from the repos first
[02:00] <alexbobp> got to go, thanks people
[02:00] <Billll> havigna  rpoblem installing wine, I had installed upload wine from thumbdrive to ubuntu onto desktop, then went to terminal, typed in 'sudo apt-get install wine' and it's comnig back that file is missing when it's on my desktop, any help?
[02:00] <TruJasper> Couldnt I of use the windows XP cd to clear my partitions and then install it fresh from the installer CD for ubuntu?
[02:00] <joel_> i wouldn't
[02:00] <LogicalDash> TruJasper: why do you want to do that?
[02:00] <bazhang> Billll, that is not the way to do it; you need an internet connection for it to work
[02:00] <TruJasper> MY burner stopped working
[02:00] <dumples> how do you run a .sh file in a command line?
[02:00] <TruJasper> my pc is really old
[02:00] <joel_> oh
[02:01] <TruJasper> and i really have no way to get to burn a cd
[02:01] <Billll> bazhang: I am trying to install my wireless card, I need the CD to do it
[02:01] <allymarie> bazhang: terminal says gtk-gnutella is already the newest version.....so where would i find it now?
[02:01] <TruJasper> i got ubuntu from a friend
[02:01] <oldos2er> dumples, run "sh ./filename.sh"
[02:01] <bazhang> TruJasper, no need just choose use entire disk in installer (ubuntu)
[02:01] <LogicalDash> TruJasper: well, you can't reformat without losing your data
[02:01] <joel_> u can request a DVD TruJasper
[02:01] <TruJasper> My CD rom doesnt run DVF
[02:01] <TruJasper> DVD*
[02:01] <LogicalDash> TruJasper: so if you want to keep your data, you'll have to use Wubi
[02:01] <joel_> oh
[02:01] <TruJasper> I dont want to keep anything.
[02:01] <TruJasper> Trust me <_<
[02:01] <Billll> Baz: I have no internet until I cna read from disk ;/
[02:02] <Gman99999> bazhang so is there any solution to this problem?
[02:02] <bazhang> allymarie, applications -->internet-->gtk-gnutella
[02:02] <joel_> get a dvd drive? lol
[02:02] <LogicalDash> TruJasper: In that case, just use the disc your friend gave you. Put it in the drive, restart your computer, start the installer, and when it asks you how to partition, select Use Entire Disk.
[02:02] <TruJasper> ug, im only 14 years old how cna i do that <_<
[02:02] <allymarie> bazhang: its still opening the 96.4 version
[02:02] <TruJasper> OH
[02:02] <Gman99999> bazhang Im having a hard time finding documentation with this problem
[02:02] <TruJasper> No
[02:02] <allymarie> that's the old one
[02:02] <TruJasper> I got this problem though
[02:02] <TruJasper> Everything went fine but on rebooting and selecting Ubuntu as the operating system got the message - Unrecognized partition table for drive 81.
[02:02] <FloodBot1> TruJasper: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:03] <TruJasper> Oops ?
[02:03] <but_ps> :-/
[02:03] <bazhang> allymarie, why do you want to install stuff from outside?
[02:03] <LogicalDash> TruJasper: Well, that's what your problem is then... for future reference, that's what you should have told us from the beginning
[02:03] <TruJasper> Oh I did.
[02:03] <TruJasper> <_<
[02:03] <TruJasper> But no one said anything
[02:03] <giacomo_carissim> does anyone know the command for networkmanager?
[02:03] <TruJasper> I said i had another problem
[02:03] <npope_> nm-applet
[02:03] <bazhang> giacomo_carissim, to do what
[02:04] <TruJasper> and i posted that
[02:04] <giacomo_carissim> nm-applet?
[02:04] <giacomo_carissim> alright cool
[02:04] <LogicalDash> TruJasper: If nobody responds to your question, it's because nobody knows the answer
[02:04] <giacomo_carissim> im running fluxbox and wanted to add it to startup
[02:04] <LogicalDash> TruJasper: try the forums instead
[02:04] <TruJasper> What forums?
[02:04] <oldos2er> ubuntuforums.org
[02:04] <bazhang> !fourms
[02:04] <bazhang> oops
[02:04] <TruJasper> Is there really a difference between the forum and here? No one can help me?
[02:04] <TruJasper> !forums
[02:04] <bazhang> !forums
[02:04] <LogicalDash> TruJasper: http://ubuntuforums.org
[02:04] <allymarie> baz: outside.....??   gnutella told me to go to their site to get updates..i have the update and the old version....shouldn't the update install and remove the old one?
[02:05] <dumples> oldos2er:  i cant seem to get it to work it just says can't open check.sh
[02:05] <npope_> TruJasper: a lot more people frequent the forums than the irc channel
[02:05] <TruJasper> Oh, alright..
[02:05] <LogicalDash> TruJasper, on the forums your post stays at the front page for a while and has a greater opportunity for knowing eyeballs to run across it
[02:05] <bazhang> TruJasper, you are not giving a very clear description; what exactly are you trying to do etc.
[02:05] <giacomo_carissim> what is your problem TruJasper?
[02:05] <joel_> he is trying to install ubuntu, but he can't burn the dvd
[02:05] <joel_> or play dvd's
[02:05] <giacomo_carissim> why not use a cd then
[02:05] <giacomo_carissim> :/
[02:05] <bazhang> without a dvd player
[02:05] <joel_> he doesn't have a dvd drive, am i correct?
[02:05] <rabiddachshund> Has anyone in here used synergy?
[02:05] <TruJasper> I have a old Windows XP, Im trying to install Ubunto, I tried the CD and I wanted to test Ubuntu and then it started showing on my startup with windows XP. I went to install it and got this error Everything went fine but on rebooting and selecting Ubuntu as the operating system got the message - Unrecognized partition table for drive 81.
[02:06] <oldos2er> dumples, try running it as "sudo sh ./check.sh"
[02:06] <ubunubi> !anyone | rabiddachshund
[02:06] <TruJasper> And i want to remove windows XP so i can just install that with no problem.
[02:06] <felix> hi guys. I'm just trying to install openvpn on a VPS. when i try to source the config file there is the error that "source: command not found" any ideas what I need to install?
[02:06] <allymarie> does anyone know where suprie1983@telkom.net may be??
[02:06] <bazhang> TruJasper, and we answered what you should do.
[02:06] <bazhang> TruJasper, no need to remove xp, just use entire disk with ubuntu installer it will overwrite it.
[02:06] <TruJasper> No this other guy asked what i wanted
[02:06] <rabiddachshund> Ok, I got synergy working but it will only go about halfway onto the second screen. Any idea why?
[02:06] <giacomo_carissim> trujasper, you should a)format your harddrive, then b)format your life
[02:07] <TruJasper> Um, stfu?
[02:07] <bazhang> giacomo_carissim, cmon be nice
[02:07] <giacomo_carissim> haha
[02:07] <joel_> he can't, he can't burn anything and doesn't have a dvd drive
[02:07] <TruJasper> I get this error though
[02:07] <TruJasper> Everything went fine but on rebooting and selecting Ubuntu as the operating system got the message - Unrecognized partition table for drive 81.
[02:07] <dumples> oldos2er: nah, its still not working
[02:07] <npope_> u have a thumb drive with enough room for the DVD
[02:07] <bazhang> TruJasper, do it again
[02:07] <TruJasper> So I have to remove the windows.
[02:07] <TruJasper> do what?
[02:07] <bazhang> TruJasper, no you dont
[02:07] <bazhang> reinstall ubuntu TruJasper
[02:07] <giacomo_carissim> well there's obviously something wrong with your partition table.  use the ubuntu disk you used the first time and redo everything
[02:07] <TruJasper> I tried three times.
[02:07] <allymarie> :'(
[02:07] <bazhang> and listen to what people are telling you
[02:07] <giacomo_carissim> buy a new pc
[02:07] <giacomo_carissim> buy a mac
[02:07] <jsm> Need help.. Sony Laptop.. toggle switch on the wireless card doesn't work under Ubuntu.. only under Vista.. suggestions?
[02:08] <npope_> TruJasper: u have a thumb drive with enough room for the DVD?  Also can your computer boot from USB?  If so just use the livecd-to-usb tools
[02:08] <TruJasper> And still this same problem.
[02:08] <oldos2er> dumples, where did you get check.sh from?
[02:08] <TruJasper> Im only 14 years old errr...
[02:08] <bazhang> giacomo_carissim, stop
[02:08] <TruJasper> Usb stopped working too on windows
[02:08] <LogicalDash> TruJasper, the problem seems to be with your partition table, not with Windows.
[02:08] <dumples> the AMD website
[02:08] <TruJasper> Thats why im trying to CLEAR it
[02:08] <TruJasper> So I can just do the fresh install
[02:08] <TruJasper> without needing WUBI
[02:08] <bazhang> TruJasper, you need to pay attention
[02:08] <LLMP> quick question
[02:09] <LogicalDash> TruJasper, if you really installed Ubuntu the way we've been telling you, then you don't actually HAVE Windows on your computer anymore.
[02:09] <LLMP> my hardrive space is getting lower by the sec
[02:09] <SuperQ> !ask > LLMP
[02:09] <TruJasper> But everytime I try to install it I get that error
[02:09] <mistform> Hello, #ubuntu. I don't understand what this is saying, it repeats right after I've executed a command from terminal.
[02:09] <physicistjedi> Hi all,
[02:09] <LLMP> !ask
[02:09] <TruJasper> I just tried the "Try Ubuntu" before install and I get the same error
[02:09] <LLMP> ok
[02:09] <Killer--Tux> hey guys
[02:09] <mistform> ldconfig deferred processing now taking place
[02:09] <mistform> mist@mist-desktop:~$
[02:09] <TruJasper> and then when i tried that ubuntu was on my bootup
[02:10] <oldos2er> dumples, try "sudo ch" then hit the Tab key to see if it selects check.sh
[02:10] <bazhang> mistform, that is normal nothing to worry about
[02:10] <rgsteele||home> TruJasper: If you really want to blow away the partition table, use a LiveCD, boot from that, and use fdisk to delete it.
[02:10] <allymarie> trouble intalling updates from gnutella
[02:10] <LLMP> my hardrive was 33.00gbs than in 30mins it went to 32.9 gbs and than 10 mins later it went to 32.8gbs and than in 5 secs it went to 32.8gbs
[02:10] <bazhang> allymarie, newer is not always better
[02:10] <LLMP> what it wrong
[02:10] <rgsteele||home> Or gparted, or qtparted, or whatever partitioner you're comfortable with.
[02:10] <LLMP> ?
[02:10] <Killer--Tux> i have a antena and i am tring to hook it up to a wifi card how can i do that ?!?
[02:11] <joel_> TruJasper, PM?
[02:11] <bazhang> allymarie, what feature do you need with that new version
[02:11] <physicistjedi> I am developing a free software, it currently compiles and runs on Ubuntu. How can I turn that into a repository package? Is there a tutorial somewhere?
[02:11] <mistform> bazhang, could you help me understand it more? That is what I'm asking :-).
[02:11] <bazhang> mistform, just normal after install config, nothing to see there
[02:11] <SuperQ> LLMP: That doesn't seem like that much disk activity
[02:11] <kramer3d> hello i am trying to install ndiswrapper/make it work for my laptop but when i load the .inf file that i downloaded from the acer website it says hardware not present??
[02:11] <SuperQ> LLMP: It all depends on what you are doing
[02:11] <rgsteele||home> physicistjedi: An official package?  Or just one in a local repo?
[02:11] <LogicalDash> physicistjedi: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=51003
[02:12] <kramer3d> i am running 8.04 btw
[02:12] <dumples> oldos2er: I tried "sudo ch" and it said could not find command, i tried "sudo sh" in case what you said was a typo and it just gave me a number sign
[02:12] <LLMP> SuperQ: i didn't do anything all i did was browse the web and chatted on xchat
[02:12] <sparky_> I can't get my LiveCD to boot up, and the BIOS are set up to boot from disk, what should I do?
[02:12] <allymarie> the warning from gnutella was to get the updates or "could cause harm to system",,,,thought i would listen to the program itself rather than let it slide and have something happen to my computer......it's a version update....have installed it and when i open the folder that downloaded archive manager opens and i told it to extract....no change..still get the warning from gnutella.....
[02:12] <physicistjedi> rgsteele||home: Goal is to make it official eventually
[02:13] <SuperQ> LLMP: That would not be "nothing"
[02:13] <physicistjedi> LogicalDash: Thanks I'll take look
[02:13] <oldos2er> dumples, i don't know what else to do. have you tried posting the ubuntu forums?
[02:13] <allymarie> read help files and did ALL kinds of stings in the terminal....no change in gnutella....rebooted...
[02:13] <LLMP> so nm is wrong
[02:13] <allymarie> i've done everything i can understand to do
[02:13] <dumples> no i havent, i dont even have an account there yet
[02:13] <mistform> sparky_, does your BIOS recognize the disk drive with the LiveCD in it?
[02:13] <SuperQ> LLMP: Many applications, such as firefox cache data, and write logs
[02:14] <bazhang> allymarie, a warning from within the ubuntu installed version?
[02:14] <sparky_> It does, in fact, I can load disks live XP installation CDs and the Recovery CD
[02:14] <kramer3d> hello i am trying to install ndiswrapper/make it work for my laptop but when i load the .inf file that i downloaded from the acer website it says hardware not present?? i am on 8.04 btw

[02:25] <bazhang> Billll, yes
[02:25] <Billll> alright
[02:25] <irc007> !linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24-19-rt
[02:25] <TruJasper> Hey guys I got the error to dissipear, but i have one more question.
[02:25] <will03> is there a way to mount a folder from an ftp server to a local folder?
[02:26] <TruJasper> There is a busybox 1.3 that shows, and idk y?
[02:26] <xevil> TruJasper: you resolve your problem?
[02:26] <bazhang> kramer3d, the card works natively but you still want to use ndiswrapper?
[02:26] <Dr_willis> will03,  there proberly some fuse ftp tools that can make the remote ftp server appear as a local directory. Might be other ways as well.
[02:26] <kramer3d> bazhang: yes
[02:26] <TruJasper> Just got a busybox 1.3 thign showing
[02:26] <unop> will03, i believe nautilus does this   ALT+F2,  nautilus-connect-server
[02:26] <TruJasper> telling me to type things in
[02:26] <TruJasper> idk what to do now
[02:26] <bazhang> TruJasper, did you md5 the iso
[02:26] <bazhang> !md5 | TruJasper
[02:26] <TruJasper> md5?
[02:26] <kramer3d> bazhang:  becase the reception is horrible and ndiswrapper works a lot better
[02:27] <Billll>  sudo dpkg -i  the_file_you_downloaded.ded <--- where would I add Desktop at in this, to install wine manually?
[02:27] <will03> unop ok i know that works, but the trick is to get it so that amarok can build the collection from that folder
[02:27] <bazhang> Billll, type ls; can you see the file there?
[02:27] <Billll> let me see the comupter I'm working on is not infront of me brb
[02:28] <Billll> Baz: my file is not on the list
[02:28] <Billll> but tohers are
[02:28] <Dr_willis> will03,  This might do the trick -> curlftpfs - filesystem to access FTP hosts based on FUSE and cURL
[02:28] <Billll> pictures, etc....
[02:28] <Reformer81> I'm curious about something. When someone logs into my computer with Recovery Mode, they're root, right?  So my computer really isn't secure at ALL if accessed locally, correct?
[02:29] <SebNaitsabes> true
[02:29] <Dr_willis> Reformer81,  if someone has physical access to the machine.. theres not a lot of security..
[02:29] <TruJasper> ok im confused on what im suppose to do
[02:29] <bazhang> Billll, then change directory to the Desktop
[02:29] <Dr_willis> Reformer81,  you can password protect grub and so forth.. but they could alwyas use a livecd also..
[02:29] <Reformer81> Dr_willis: Okay.  That's somewhat surprising, but makes sense, I guess.
[02:29] <bazhang> TruJasper, md5 the iso
[02:29] <SebNaitsabes> ,but the BIOS
[02:29] <SebNaitsabes> can be set to use a password
[02:29] <Billll> Baz: move file to 1s place?
[02:29] <brad_> puppt does
[02:29] <Reformer81> Dr_willis: I assume the LiveCD logs in as root, correct?
[02:29] <brad_> puppy
[02:30] <Dr_willis> Reformer81,  saw a big yellying match about it the other day on a forum.  Windows has similer problems also.
[02:30] <Dr_willis> Reformer81,  it could. :) and just mount your drives  and do whatver it wanted..
[02:30] <SebNaitsabes> disable booting from CD's in BIOS and password protect it.  and do what thingey said with Grub
[02:30] <bazhang> Billll, type cd Desktop
[02:30] <brad_> if only I could get the sound card to work I would use puppy
[02:30] <Reformer81> Dr_willis: Well, I was most shocked to learn that on a dual boot system, I could just login to windows and install a simple driver and boom, ALL my linux files were accessible and writable.
[02:30] <Billll> alright
[02:30] <tehquickness> Should my dvd read speed be faster than 2.2 MB/sec ?? That seems really slow..
[02:31] <Dr_willis> Reformer81,  linux can access all the files on the windows drive also.
[02:31] <Dr_willis> Reformer81,  ive often used linux to remove files that windows would refuse to let me remove.
[02:31] <Reformer81> Dr_willis: Right.  And I would expect that, but not the other way around :)
[02:31] <LLMP> Swap:      1510068      41216    1468852
[02:31] <brad_> how do you defrag on unbuntu?
[02:31] <Pici> brad_: you dont need to
[02:31] <ikonia> brad_: you don't need to
[02:31] <Reformer81> Dr_willis: I guess I had a warped idea of what a "secure" OS should be.
[02:31] <WebcamWonder> brad_: No need to defrag
[02:31] <Billll> baz: did that
[02:31] <Reformer81> !defrag | brad_
[02:31] <mib> anyone?
[02:31] <Dr_willis> Reformer81,  secuity is a process. :)
[02:32] <bazhang> LLMP, with 512 ram you should be okay as long as you dont use heavy desktop effects nor too many flash tabs in firefox
[02:32] <ikonia> mib: anyone what ?
[02:32] <brad_> nice
[02:32] <Billll> ahh okay
[02:32] <mib> could help my problem
[02:32] <TruJasper> cd \path\to\cddir ?
[02:32] <bazhang> Billll, now ls again is the file there
[02:32] <TruJasper> what do i have to change?
[02:32] <Billll> think I got it
[02:32] <brad_> i wish opera worked on ovguide.com
[02:32] <Dr_willis> TruJasper,  use the / not \
[02:32] <ikonia> mib: try asking your problem, rather than saying "anyone" anyone is no use to anyone, people either don't know the answer (saying anyone won't help that) or didn't see the question (saying anyone won't help that either)
[02:33] <Billll> ahh yes Baz file is located there
[02:33] <Dr_willis> TruJasper,  cd /home/billgates
[02:33] <LLMP> what u mean flash tabs
[02:33] <bazhang> Billll, then run the command from before again
[02:33] <Billll> this kind of reminds me of FTP webservers
[02:33] <LLMP> and i will be good more couple more years right like maybe 3?
[02:33] <Billll> alright
[02:33] <Billll> baz: looks liek I'll have to learn linux commands =P
[02:34] <bazhang> LLMP, if you dont have too many flash (youtube) firefox (browser) tabs going at once
[02:34] <ubunubi> where does nautilus store generated thumbnails?
[02:34] <ikonia> ubunubi: in your home dir
[02:34] <xevil> LLMP: as long as your hardware doesn't fail... :)
[02:34] <LLMP> oh ok thanx
[02:34] <bazhang> np
[02:34] <ubunubi> ikonia:: any particular directory?
[02:34] <ikonia> ubunubi: Hmmm, is it .thumbs ?
[02:34] <ikonia> ubunubi: or .gnome2/.thumbs ?
[02:34] <ubunubi> ikonia: dunno lemme take alook thanks for pointing me in the right direction though
[02:35] <ikonia> ubunubi: certainly in your home dir
[02:35] <LLMP> i have a 1.5ghz processor and 40gb hardrive
[02:35] <Leefmc> Question: When using mplayer as your mediaplayer in firefox, anyone know how to make it not autoplay everything? I want to hit play on things
[02:35] <bazhang> LLMP, should be fine
[02:35] <AlphaXero> ok, so i used synaptic to install the latest nvidia drivers 173.14 and i had to install the dev version. now when i go into hardware drivers it says nvdriver not in use. i imagine thats cause its expecting a diff driver am i correct in this assumption?
[02:35] <DarkAudit> ubunubi: .thumbnails
[02:35] <AlphaXero> cause i clearly have 3d accel onaccording to the nv server settings
[02:35] <legend2440> ubunubi: hidden folder called   .thumbnails
[02:36] <ubunubi> darkaudit legend2440 ikonia:: thanks
[02:36] <bazhang> back in a minute
[02:36] <allymarie> wondering how to take a screenshot
[02:36] <allymarie> firstly anyway
[02:37] <allymarie> lol
[02:37] <Reformer81> Could someone please remind me of the name of the program that basically maps your partitions (showing space left, largest files, etc)>
[02:37] <WebcamWonder> allymarie: hit print screen
[02:37] <Rhorse> allymarie, if you install imagemagick suite it's easy
[02:37] <Reformer81> doh
[02:37] <Reformer81> nevermind lol
[02:38] <allymarie> webcam: then how do i send it to someone
[02:38] <orbisvicis> anyone have crackly sound with pidgin ?
[02:38] <WebcamWonder> allymarie: hitting print screen will bring up an application to save the screenshot automatically
[02:38] <brad_> anyone found a good dvd ripper for unbuntu that splits the disc into 2 dvd disks?
[02:38] <ubunubi> Reformer81: try Applications >Accessories>Disk Usage Analyzer
[02:38] <AlphaXero> orbisvicis, tell your friend on the other end to lay off the potato chips
[02:39] <orbisvicis> im amused
[02:39] <Reformer81> ubunubi: Yeah, that's what I was looking for.  I didn't think it was installed by default.  Sorry.
[02:39] <ubunubi> Reformer81: which is the launcher for "baobab"
[02:40] <AlphaXero> whats a good 3d opengl test app to try out my new driver?
[02:40] <Fryguy--> AlphaXero: glxgears
[02:41] <AlphaXero> ah sweet yeah i forgot the name thanks Fryguy
[02:41] <will03> can i use sshfs to mount an ftp folder when it has a domain name rather than a direct ip address
[02:41] <Reformer81> Fryguy--: That doesn't give an accurate benchmark, though.
[02:41] <brad_> i am watching walle you could try it to watch a movie
[02:41] <allymarie> i have to go to bed...will try fixing this one tomorrow....thanks for the suggestions
[02:41] <AlphaXero> glxgears isnt in the default repo eh?
[02:42] <Fryguy--> Reformer81: he wasn't looking for a benchmark, he was looking for something to test out a driver
[02:42] <Reformer81> AlphaXero: I believe it's already installed by default.
[02:42] <ubunubi> AlphaXero: should be installed by default
[02:42] <AlphaXero> oh
[02:42] <Fryguy--> AlphaXero: glxgears is probably already installed
[02:42] <AlphaXero> my bad
[02:42] <Reformer81> Fryguy--: Oh... for some reason I though he asked to test his new video card :)
[02:42]  * ryooichi is trying to remember the name of an app that allows booting multiple iso files from usb thumbdrive... any ideas?
[02:43] <jsm> Fryguy--: I think I have the drivers installed properly on my Wifi but the on/off toggle switch on my laptop doesn't work under Ubuntu.
[02:43] <Fryguy--> jsm: why are you telling me?
[02:43] <jsm> fryguy--: because you were helping me yesterday with my wifi problems.
[02:43] <spikemcc> can someone help me with my dvb ?
[02:43] <Fryguy--> jsm: i don't know anything about wifi
[02:43] <KnomeDE> why does my screen get messed up when it comes back on after ive let my comp sit for a while
[02:43] <taomaster> hello i have a question- how do i get a dual montior setup to work in Ubuntu?
[02:43] <Fryguy--> !anyone | spikemcc
[02:44] <Dr_willis> taomaster,  depends a great deal on your video card.
[02:44] <Fryguy--> taomaster: enabled it in the screens and graphics gui, or just edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf manually
[02:44] <bazhang> taomaster, dualhead or xinerama
[02:44] <orbisvicis> brad, http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Rip_DVD_mencoder
[02:44] <AlphaXero> sweet thx guys
[02:44] <KnomeDE> taomaster: separate desktops or cloned desktops
[02:44] <taomaster> ok i'll try that- got it to work in sled 10.2 np
[02:44] <AlphaXero> just had to pop open a term... duh heheh
[02:45] <Averros> What is the default xwindows install in ubuntu Gnome or KDE?
[02:45] <ryooichi> gnome
[02:45] <AlphaXero> gnome
[02:45] <c0mrade> can anybody help me with quota? it doesn't seem to stop user exceeding its disk usage .. any indications what went wrong ?
[02:45] <Averros> Thank you :)
[02:45] <Fryguy--> Averros: ubuntu is gnome, kubuntu is kde, and xubuntu is xfce
[02:45] <AlphaXero> averros, Kubuntu is KDE
[02:45] <Billll> baz: it installed wine but still havign problems,wine depends on binfnt, libaudio2, winbid package is not installed. It then trys to connect me to the internet for updates now.
[02:46] <Averros> I've seen pictures of Ubuntu looking a little like vista... what do I need to do that, or does anyone have a link to a good howto on that?
[02:46] <bazhang> Billll, is this box internet connected?
[02:46] <KnomeDE> why does my screen get messed up when it comes back on after ive let my comp sit for a while or from standby resume??
[02:46] <WebcamWonder> Averros: gnome-look.org
[02:46] <Averros> WebcamWonder: Thank you
[02:46] <bazhang> Averros, themes from gnome-look.org
[02:46] <Billll> Baz: it's not internet connected
[02:46] <Dr_willis> KnomeDE,  sounds like classic video driver issues  with standby/suspend.
[02:46] <Fryguy--> Averros: there's plenty of themes available for various aspects of the interface, and you can get rid of gnome entirely if you want.  Check out gnome-look.org for gnome stuff, or take a look at screenshot threads in linux distros that don't default a gui (gentoo, archlinux for example), for some inspiration on customizing you gui
[02:47] <KnomeDE> Dr_willis: any suggestions?
[02:47] <Billll> trying to isntall internal wirelss card to it eventually still need to read info from disk
[02:47] <Averros> I decided to abandon windows to use Linux, I haven't used it in many years and then it was slackware
[02:47] <Fryguy--> Averros: ok
[02:47] <ImperfectLink> it seems my WM just randomly dies on me a lot
[02:47] <Dr_willis> KnomeDE,  i always disable hibernate/suspend.
[02:47] <bazhang> Billll, best bet is to get ethernet cable to install everything; the way you are doing it is much harder, especially for wireless
[02:48] <badfish> how do i get identified?
[02:48] <sargento> somebody knows where can I find a log about a kinit error on start-up?
[02:48] <badfish> how do i get identified?
[02:48] <bazhang> badfish, on freenode?
[02:48] <igor__> so i just got ubuntu, what are some of the benefits of having it
[02:48] <Fryguy--> ImperfectLink: so use a different wm, or check out /var/log for error messages, or figure out what the cause of the problem is and take steps to correct it
[02:48] <Fryguy--> badfish, use nickserv
[02:48] <Fryguy--> badfish: /msg nickserv identify yourpassword
[02:48] <KnomeDE> Dr_willis: it apens even when the lcd goes off when i close my lid and then open it
[02:48] <ImperfectLink> Fryguy--, yeah i been tryin hehe. i'm on my 3rd nvidia driver
[02:49] <Leefmc> Question: Anyone know how to turn off autoplay in mozilla-mplayer?
[02:49] <power78> Hello, I installed ubuntu from the minimal install disk and now want to install gnome. what packages do i install? i have installed gdm so far but gnome wont start.
[02:49] <orbisvicis> brad, or mpgjoin/split handbrake, mkvtools
[02:49] <Fryguy--> igor__: a wide selection of free software, usually a better use of existing computer resources, very powerful terminal, wide selection of programming tools if you are a developer, and it's free
[02:49] <Billll> baz: is there a all in one package I cna get, wine seems to depend on other program to run is it possible to downlaod all these programs then downlaod to desktop etc...
[02:49] <badfish> thank you
[02:49] <Fryguy--> power78: try installing ubuntu-desktop
[02:49] <power78> Fryguy--: thank you
[02:49] <power78> exit
[02:49] <badfish> now, tell me which penny stop with double in the next month.
[02:49] <badfish> Which penny stock will double in the next month?
[02:49] <Storrgie> anyone familiar with MDADM?
[02:50] <Billll> if it's harder to do = learning more =P
[02:50] <bazhang> badfish, take chat elsewhere
[02:50] <Fryguy--> !anyone | Storrgie

[02:50] <Storrgie> I would like some help setting up a raid 5 array with MDADM, has anyone had experience with this?
[02:50] <Storrgie> Fryguy--: better?
[02:50] <Fryguy--> Storrgie: i've done raid5 in mdadm.  it's a pretty straightforward command line interface to set up, and /proc/mdstat lists current status of raid drives
[02:51] <Fryguy--> Storrgie: and googling for mdadm shows quite a few step by step walkthroughs on how to do it
[02:51] <Storrgie> Fryguy--: i was getting some errors, thats what I wanted some one on one support with
[02:51] <Fryguy--> Storrgie: also see the manpage for mdadm, it's very well documented
[02:51] <tehquickness> The dvd player on my computer is copying files terribly slow ( 4.0 MB/sec). I should be able to read of of a dvd faster than that right?? What could be causing this?
[02:51] <Storrgie> Fryguy--: yes it is, my first time it was fine
[02:51] <Fryguy--> Storrgie: "some errors" doesn't mean anything to me
[02:51] <dfgas> is there a way to take a 2.6gig file and make it to fit on a 2gig sd card? its an iso and my dvd burner is dead however i want to install it on here.
[02:52] <Fryguy--> dfgas: no
[02:52] <orbisvicis> dfgas, what are the contents
[02:52] <Storrgie> Fryguy--: ill pm you with the issue when i re-create it, thanks for your help thusfar
[02:52] <Elijah> i need help getting ubuntu to recognize a memorex usb player , it just doesn't do anything
[02:52] <Fryguy--> dfgas: try breaking apart the iso, compressing the contents, and then recreating the iso
[02:52] <Fryguy--> Storrgie: please do not pm me
[02:52] <ImperfectLink> Fryguy--, what version of Xorg are you using?
[02:52] <bazhang> dfgas you might try uck but you would have to slim it down
[02:52] <Fryguy--> ImperfectLink: i don't use Xorg
[02:52] <qman__> you could attempt to bzip2 the iso
[02:52] <qman__> but whether or not it will actually shrink depends on the contents
[02:52] <dfgas> Fryguy--, darn that will take to much time, heh
[02:53] <bazhang> !uck | dfgas
[02:53] <dfgas> this isn't ubuntu
[02:53] <ImperfectLink> Fryguy--, I didnt know there was an alternative. Should I be using something else?
[02:53] <bazhang> works with dvds iirc
[02:53] <dfgas> but thanks
[02:53] <sargento> I've got no usplash and takes a lot of time loading, any ideas?
[02:53] <kramer3d> hello i am trying to install ndiswrapper/make it work for my laptop but when i load the .inf file that i downloaded from the acer website it says hardware not present?? i am on 8.04 btw
[02:53] <Fryguy--> dfgas: if you could fit 2.6GB in 2GB, wouldn't that defeat the purpose of drives bigger than 2GB?  Think about this for a second
[02:53] <LLMP> Is it a good idea to use differnt platforms>
[02:53] <LLMP> ?
[02:53] <Elijah> does ubuntu have usb support for mp3 players
[02:53] <Fryguy--> LLMP: what do you mean by platform
[02:53] <Fryguy--> Elijah: yes
[02:53] <orbisvicis> dfgas, split to separate, cat to join, simple ; )
[02:54] <Fryguy--> ImperfectLink: no
[02:54] <LLMP> iexample i download k3b and it is a KDE platform and i have gnome
[02:54] <Elijah> does a usb mp3 player need anything special done to it?
[02:55] <bazhang> LLMP, that works fine with gnome
[02:55] <qman__> Elijah, if the MP3 player plugs and works in windows, it will plug and work in ubuntu
[02:55] <bazhang> Elijah, if it is seen a storage device no
[02:55] <qman__> Elijah, if you need to install special software on windows, it may or may not work in ubuntu
[02:55] <LLMP> which ones will not work and how do u work wine?
[02:55] <mib> ikonia: i have a R package in ubuntu and it is older version. I wanted to update this packages from the synaptics. How can I do that?
[02:55] <Averros> I have yet another dumb question: What do I used to install the .emerald compiz themes from gnome-look.com?
[02:56] <Averros> err .org
[02:56] <bazhang> !appdb | check here LLMP
[02:56] <Elijah> bazhang, no it doesnt show in my computer
[02:56] <orbisvicis> Averros, emerald theme manager
[02:56] <Averros> orb: Thanks
[02:56] <Elijah> qman__, it doesnt need special software in windows
[02:56] <sargento> Fryguy, I've got no usplash screen and takes a lot of time loading, any ideas?, or where can I find information about kinit errors?
[02:56] <bazhang> Elijah, is this  a zune or creative zen?
[02:56] <ImperfectLink> is it safe to uninstall Xorg drivers that i dont need?
[02:56] <Fryguy--> sargento: no idea, why are you asking me
[02:56] <Fryguy--> ImperfectLink: probably not
[02:56] <mib> !ikonia
[02:57] <sargento> FryGuy: because I think you are an expert, sorry if a bothered you
[02:57] <Averros> You people are the best, thanks for all the help!
[02:57] <bazhang> np
[02:57] <ImperfectLink> sorry Fryguy-- i realize that you are sitting through a barrage of silly questions here and appreciate that you are willing to answer questions
[02:57] <Elijah> bazhang, no, it is a memorex mp3 player
[02:57] <Fryguy--> sargento: i'm not an expert at all, I barely know anything about linux
[02:58] <bazhang> Elijah, what software are you using to access it
[02:58] <mib> bazhang, could you help to point me how can i update packages in ubuntu for R
[02:58] <Averros> Oh, speaking of MP3 players, is there a good program for putting songs on my IPod?
[02:58] <orbisvicis> Averros, most of us here didnt write compiz or make emerald themes ; )
[02:58] <Fryguy--> Averros: amarok or gtkpod
[02:58] <bazhang> mib, check in synaptic package manager
[02:58] <sargento> FryGuy: Thanks for your time anyway, do you know other channel where I can try to get an answer
[02:58] <Fryguy--> sargento: no
[02:58] <mib> bazhang: ya..i check that..but the R version reflected is still old
[02:59] <ImperfectLink> bbiab
[02:59] <Elijah> bazhang, no software on windows, and just ubuntus explorer
[02:59] <Averros> Orb: No, but without you guys to point me in the right direction I may have taken a long time to figure it ouyt
[02:59] <bazhang> Elijah, explorer?
[02:59] <LLMP> sorry but i also want to know how could i make my desktop transparent the window?
[02:59] <qman__> I think Elijah means nautilus
[02:59] <Leefmc> Question: Anyone know how to feed what is in their headphones, into a screencast recording?
[03:00] <bazhang> LLMP, you mean with compiz?
[03:00] <mib> bazhang, i choose that packages and redo Mark all Upgrades but still the same
[03:00] <Fryguy--> LLMP: use compiz, install compizconfig-settings-manager if you need more fine grained control. if you are looking specifically for transparency, check out transset
[03:00] <ikonia> mib: an R package ?
[03:00] <ANA> BOA NOITE ALGUÉM AI FALA EM PORTUGUÊS! PLEASE
[03:00] <mib> ikonia: yeah

[03:00] <mib> GNU-R
[03:00] <ikonia> mib: what's an R package ?
[03:00] <LLMP> will it take up more ram
[03:00] <Fryguy--> LLMP: yes
[03:00] <mib> its a statistical tool package

[03:01] <ikonia> mib: not a high priority package
[03:02] <mib> i can install that from the homepage and untar it..but it might overlapp previous package
[03:02] <ikonia> mib: not enough maintainers
[03:02] <ikonia> mib: yes, it will put your package manager out of sync
[03:02] <mib> ikonia, so is there any command line so that package manager knows
[03:02] <Storrgie> how do i setup default programs to access media, such as DVD's and .ts files?
[03:02] <LLMP> and where is a good place to learn linux as i started last night? and is there always a work around to get window programs installed?
[03:02] <ikonia> mib: you'd have to package it up yourself
[03:02] <ikonia> mib: or log a request to have it updated in the ubuntu repos
[03:02] <Fryguy--> LLMP: use wine to run windows programs, and google is great for learning more about linux, just search for stuff and read
[03:03] <mib> okie.

[03:06] <ikonia> M32k8: apache
[03:06] <Fryguy--> M32k8: apache, lighthttpd, or ngninx
[03:06] <ikonia> M32k8: but you don't need the ubuntu server release to run an apache webserver
[03:06] <orbisvicis> Fryguy--, ikonia oh sweet
[03:07] <M32k8> I have the server release because i am running a server off of a p3 1ghz system with 512mb ram
[03:07] <orbisvicis> good point
[03:08] <M32k8> i just tried the apt-get install apache and i get this
[03:08] <orbisvicis> M32k8, apache2
[03:08] <Fryguy--> !pastebing | M32k8
[03:08] <ikonia> M32k8: again the desktop version may suit you better

[03:08] <demfrax> anyone know of any games such as command and conquer for ubuntu?
[03:08] <Fryguy--> demfrax: command and conquer will run in linux
[03:09] <demfrax> it will?
[03:09] <demfrax> without wine
[03:09] <bazhang> demfrax, warzone 2100
[03:09] <orbisvicis> demfrax, springTA totally
[03:09] <Fryguy--> demfrax: no
[03:09] <M32k8> thanks it's installing now
[03:09] <demfrax> how gooed is it with wine?
[03:09] <Fryguy--> demfrax: why does it have to run without wine
[03:09] <M32k8> does apache2 support php
[03:09] <Fryguy--> demfrax: should be fine
[03:09] <Fryguy--> M32k8: yes
[03:09] <M32k8> Good
[03:09] <demfrax> i was just wondering if there were some games made specifically for ubuntu, but thanks
[03:09] <orbisvicis> M32k8, mod_php or fast-cgi
[03:09] <M32k8> i need the php support for my WoW server i am running now
[03:10] <Fryguy--> M32k8: i suggest you do some reading about webservers and php and configuration before you get yourself into a big hole
[03:10] <M32k8> I am only hosting 1 page thats all
[03:10] <Fryguy--> M32k8: since it seems this is your first time being exposed to webservers
[03:10] <Fryguy--> M32k8: ok
[03:10] <c01100011> very light weight media center application recomendations ?   not happy with elisa or sofa
[03:10] <AlphaXero> whats a good flash player for FF that wont crash it
[03:10] <AlphaXero> ?
[03:11] <Fryguy--> AlphaXero: flashplugin-nonfree works fine
[03:11] <orbisvicis> M32k8, starters, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[03:11] <M32k8> it's just a account creation page for my World Of WarCraft Server
[03:11] <bazhang> !info mediatomb
[03:11] <AlphaXero> FF seems to crash often for me and i think its due to flash non-free
[03:11] <GOTFrogqc> Hi, Im having issues with my 3rd HD witch since my windows installation craped on me I can't mount it in ubuntu anymore
[03:11] <Fryguy--> AlphaXero: i've used firefox with flashplugin-nonfree with no issues
[03:11] <orbisvicis> AlphaXero, might be due to the flash-pulseaudio slight issues
[03:12] <Fryguy--> GOTFrogqc: sounds like hardware failure
[03:12] <Storrgie> I am trying to play a DVD 'in bruges' with VLC, but it wont open the disk of play any of the vob files, has anyone rented this disk yet?
[03:12] <AlphaXero> thats not currently install orbisvicis do i need it?
[03:13] <orbisvicis> AlphaXero, libflashsupport? you dont need it, but if its crashing and you think its flash, you can try it
[03:13] <AlphaXero> k
[03:14] <AlphaXero> ok its installed now. FF and opera have been very crashy for me
[03:14] <AlphaXero> i hope that does it
[03:14] <GOTFrogqc> Fryguy: I don't see why, my ubuntu is on 1 drive, my windows is on an other (witch wont get in windows after pretty much trying everything), but the 3rd HD witch has got all my data wont mount
[03:14] <AlphaXero> Lolz i already crashed FF again... grey window
[03:15] <Fryguy--> GOTFrogqc: i misunderstood you, you said "my windows installation crapped on me" and "i can't mount it in ubuntu anymore"
[03:15] <M32k8> Umm one last question
[03:15] <M32k8> nevermind
[03:15] <Fryguy--> GOTFrogqc: so why can't you mount the drive in ubuntu
[03:16] <bobertdos> AlpphaXero: What version of FF are you using? Is it Ubuntu's version or Mozilla's?
[03:16] <bobertdos> ﻿AlphaXero: What version of FF are you using? Is it Ubuntu's version or Mozilla's?
[03:16] <GOTFrogqc> Fryguy: I get unable to mount the Volume "*"
[03:16] <orbisvicis> firefox crashes on me all the time
[03:16] <orbisvicis> like every **10 sec
[03:16] <orbisvicis> thats why i use opera
[03:17] <kevinO> hello how do i get my remote control to do system commands?
[03:17] <Fryguy--> i wonder what you guys are doing to cause firefox to crash to much
[03:17] <Fryguy--> GOTFrogqc: what drive/partition is it (what device in /dev)
[03:17] <orbisvicis> kevin__, what type of remote control
[03:17] <bobertdos> I wonder the same thing.
[03:17] <orbisvicis> Fryguy--, whish i knew
[03:17] <orbisvicis> *-h
[03:17] <bazhang> too many addons no adblock plus too many flash tabs most likely
[03:17] <GOTFrogqc> Fryguy: how do i check that?
[03:18] <bobertdos> Also, GOTFrogqc, when you say your Windows installation "crapped out" what does that mean, exactly?
[03:18] <Fryguy--> see /etc/fstab, df, or fdisk -l
[03:18] <orbisvicis> no no, i can delete all profiles + settings, open 1 tab, type 192.168 .. then crash ; (
[03:18] <Deecodeuh> So if Firefox 3 is in Hardy, is Firefox 3 in any previous releases of Ubuntu?
[03:18] <orbisvicis> kevin__, my bad
[03:18] <Fryguy--> Deecodeuh: no
[03:19] <orbisvicis> kevinO, what type of remote
[03:19] <Fryguy--> Deecodeuh: considering it was just released a few weeks ago, it's not really possible for it to be
[03:19] <orbisvicis> here: ** (firefox:11392): WARNING **: Exception in gr::RangeSegment
[03:19] <orbisvicis> seg fault
[03:19] <Deecodeuh> Fryguy: Why does Ubuntu do that? Firefox 3 has been in the testing repos for Arch for months now.
[03:19] <orbisvicis> !! yay
[03:20] <Fryguy--> Deecodeuh: policy, and what you were running in the testing repo was alpha/beta versions of firefox
[03:20] <GOTFrogqc> I was doing a registry clean up absent minded and when I rebooted the day after it gets the the window loading page and crashes, tryed loading with last good config, repairing it, wont even load in safe mode
[03:20] <orbisvicis> bot: sarcasm
[03:20] <Deecodeuh> Fryguy: Yea, I guess...
[03:21] <kevinO> orbisvicis, i have the microsoft mce remote and reciever, i beleve it is working, i type irw and it as output, i just dont know what to do now
[03:21] <bobertdos> ﻿GOTFrogqc: So as I understand it, the last time you were in Windows, it crashed, right?
[03:21] <GOTFrogqc> yeah
[03:21] <bazhang> !windows
[03:22] <Averros> Hmm, I cannot seem to get Compiz and Emerald Theme manager to work..... Does anyone have a link to a howto?
[03:22] <Averros> I found on google to follow and it didn't work
[03:22] <bobertdos> ﻿GOTFrogqc: The partition you can't mount, is it an NTFS partition?
[03:22] <orbisvicis> Averros, so what happens ?
[03:22] <Fryguy--> Averros: plenty of howtos here: http://www.google.com/search?q=ubuntu+compiz+emerald+theme+manager+howto&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a
[03:22] <Averros> orb: Nothing,
[03:23] <nmeless> averros: not emerald nor compiz runs at all?
[03:23] <orbisvicis> Averros, orbisvicis (so i can see you, tab complete) .. need more details
[03:23] <GOTFrogqc> yes it is, needs to be since i use it for both windows and linux
[03:24] <xis> Boa noite.
[03:24] <xis> Alguem do Brasil?
[03:24] <Fryguy--> !brasil | xis
[03:24] <Averros> orbisvicis,  Compiz runs and I have the icon and I can go into the theme manager but it isn't doing anything when I click on the theme.
[03:24] <Fryguy--> !pt | xis
[03:24] <orbisvicis> ok i have never seen so many boa noite before ?
[03:24] <ce_butuh> jablay,,,,,,,,,
[03:24] <xis> :)
[03:24] <Averros> orbisvicis, I am taking a look through some how-to's let me see if I can figure out what I did wrong
[03:25] <m23k8> hey one last question
[03:25] <xis> Tks!
[03:25] <webmasteroy> hello?
[03:25] <Fryguy--> !welcome | webmasteroy
[03:25] <m23k8> where does apache2 put it's index files
[03:25] <Billlll> ahh okay
[03:25] <Fryguy--> m23k8: what "index" files
[03:25] <bobertdos> ﻿GOTFrogqc: The that's exactly why you're having trouble mounting.
[03:25] <chris_> hello everyone
[03:26] <m23k8> i mean the root dir for it so i know where to place my index.php and images
[03:26] <pw-toxic> hi
[03:26] <GOTFrogqc> but it was mounting no problems before
[03:26] <chris_> Can anyone assist me in my problem, im a total newbie to ubuntu.
[03:26] <Fryguy--> m23k8: /var/www by default. see /etc/apache2/*.conf if you want to change stuff
[03:26] <webmasteroy> I am having trouble setting up the mailserver's on my network, rogers.  Is this impossible or do I change the ports?
[03:26] <Fryguy--> !anyone | chris_
[03:26] <m23k8> ok
[03:26] <pw-toxic> i',m currently working on my notebook running a solution of 1400*1050, but i have a 2nd monitor, where i want to expand my desktop like windows xp dual view.  is this possible? and how
[03:26] <webmasteroy>  I am having trouble setting up the mailserver's on my network, rogers.  Is this impossible or do I change the ports?
[03:26] <webmasteroy>  I am having trouble setting up the mailserver's on my network, rogers.  Is this impossible or do I change the ports?
[03:26] <webmasteroy>  I am having trouble setting up the mailserver's on my network, rogers.  Is this impossible or do I change the ports?
[03:26] <FloodBot1> webmasteroy: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:27] <Fryguy--> webmasteroy: running servers is against most ISPs terms of service, and some take active measures to stop you from doing it, like blocking ports
[03:27] <Billlll> running this by you guys, but I don't need to isntall a windows driver application for a wireless card because ti wouldn't work anyways, all i need to do is isntall the wireless card into ubuntu and see what happens =P
[03:27] <bobertdos> ﻿GOTFrogqc: When Windows does not terminate properly, Linux still interprets the NTFS partitions as busy, because they were never marked idle when Windows shut down.
[03:27] <Billlll> ubuntu might have driver already installed for wireless card
[03:27] <Fryguy--> GOTFrogqc: check out ntfsfix
[03:27] <webmasteroy> so you can't use a ubuntu server for testing on a home location?
[03:27] <Fryguy--> webmasteroy: sure you can
[03:27] <webmasteroy> you have to pay 100$/a month minimum for this stuff?
[03:27] <GOTFrogqc> bobertdos: is there a way to fix that?
[03:28] <chris_> i just installed ubuntu. i installed the drivers for my graphjics card (7600gt) and then i restarted my system and everything appeared to be working fine untill i rebooted again. upon start up my resolution was cahnged from 1680 X 1050 to 600 X 480 (making everything giant on my 22') and when i try to change the resolution it wont list 1680 X 1050
[03:28] <GOTFrogqc> Fryguy: will do
[03:28] <Billlll> running this by you guys, but I don't need to isntall a windows driver application for a wireless card because ti wouldn't work anyways, all i need to do is isntall the wireless card into ubuntu and see what happens =P
[03:28] <Fryguy--> webmasteroy: i just explained the whole situation to you, what is the problem
[03:28] <Fryguy--> !repeat | Billlll
[03:28] <bobertdos> ﻿GOTFrogqc: You can always use the terminal to try and mount them by force.
[03:28] <GOTFrogqc> how do I do that?
[03:28] <Fryguy--> GOTFrogqc: mount -f
[03:28] <Fryguy--> GOTFrogqc: or just use ntfsfix
[03:28] <webmasteroy> how do you test your scripts that use php's mail command then on a home server testing server?
[03:28] <CaTeIM> Bem.. sou novo por aqui e sou tb mais um que precisa de ajuda!
[03:29] <Fryguy--> webmasteroy: same way you do any other testing
[03:29] <pw-toxic> im looking for a cool ftp client for ubuntu
[03:29] <chris_> can anyone walk me through this so i can have the proper resolution ?
[03:29] <Fryguy--> webmasteroy: care to ask a more specific question, or share with us a specific problem you are having that hasn't already been addressed?
[03:29] <CaTeIM> Como faço para instalar o FF 3 final?
[03:29] <bobertdos> ﻿GOTFrogqc: The option should be -f. You can do it Fryguy's way too. At least one way should do it.
[03:29] <webmasteroy> yes but what if your ISP blocks the mail server ports?
[03:29] <CaTeIM> Já baixei ele
[03:29] <m-c> Q: seen this error in dmesg before? "ata4.00 failed to IDENTIFY"  - I think I may have lost a hard drive.  http://pastebin.ca/1064284
[03:29] <webmasteroy> how do you switch the ports on the mail server if this is even possible?
[03:29] <chris_> >	i just installed ubuntu. i installed the drivers for my graphjics card (7600gt) and then i restarted my system and everything appeared to be working fine untill i rebooted again. upon start up my resolution was cahnged from 1680 X 1050 to 600 X 480 (making everything giant on my 22') and when i try to change the resolution it wont list 1680 X 1050
[03:29] <Fryguy--> webmasteroy: then you can only send local mail, or you can try to get around it by running smtp on a port other than 25, and probably get your account terminated because of it
[03:29] <m23k8> can someone test something for me and tell me what they get
[03:30] <ce_butuh> hi.
[03:30] <afallenhope> hey I have an issue.. I can't run GEANY as root.. I used to beable to but now I can't I get the following message: /usr/bin/geany: /usr/bin/geany: cannot execute binary file
[03:30] <Fryguy--> !anyone | m23k8
[03:30] <chris_> no one can help me?
[03:30] <CaTeIM> Algum BRASILEIRO?
[03:30] <Fryguy--> afallenhope: can you run it as a normal user?
[03:30] <Fryguy--> !pt | CaTeIM
[03:30] <GOTFrogqc> will try I know mount -f didnt do anything
[03:31] <webmasteroy> so how would I recieve email locally? I am confused as I am new to this stuff
[03:31] <CaTeIM> Como conecto nele?
[03:31] <m23k8> Can someone goto http://72.91.119.221 and tell me if they can view the webpage there or if it just askes if they want to download a file
[03:31] <webmasteroy> how do I know if the email has actually sent
[03:31] <bobertdos> chris_ Which drivers did you install??
[03:31] <afallenhope> Fryguy--,  yeah I can... but I need to use it as a superuser because I need to edit the files on my /var/www/ folder
[03:31] <Fryguy--> webmasteroy: send mail to a local account.  You don't need to use the internet to do this, especially for testing purposes
[03:31] <chris_> i used the drivers that were recomended
[03:31] <chris_> i didnt actually download anything it all but installed them for me
[03:31] <msshams> what is your suggest for gnome? screenlets or gdesklets?
[03:31] <chris_> how can i check the drivers?
[03:31] <Fryguy--> afallenhope: what is the user:group on /var/www directory
[03:31] <orbisvicis> msshams, never gdesklets !
[03:31] <Fryguy--> msshams: try both and see which one you like more
[03:31] <bobertdos> chris_ Which were what? Where did you get them?
[03:32] <webmasteroy> so it would be something like tester@ip.ip.ip.ip?
[03:32] <Fryguy--> msshams: they both exist for a reason
[03:32] <afallenhope> When I type: ls -h | grep geany I get the following: -rwxr-xr-x  1 root   root    1440992 2008-02-12 09:06 geany
[03:32] <isleshocky77> I deleted a lib file by accident. What's the best way to get another copy of it?
[03:32] <webmasteroy> I would just set this up in my mail server as an email accoutn
[03:32] <Storrgie> I am using bridged ethernet with vmware, but my VM wont get an IP, my host OS is ubuntu and my guest OS is XP
[03:32] <isleshocky77> specifivcally /usr/lib/libWand.so.10
[03:32] <Guest29846> hi, i can't hear any audio
[03:32] <afallenhope> Fryguy--, it's root.
[03:32] <Fryguy--> webmasteroy: sure I guess.  This is pretty far outside of the scope of this channel,  try the channel associated with whatever mail server you use
[03:32] <Fryguy--> afallenhope: i doubt it's root:root
[03:32] <afallenhope> Fryguy--,  it is
[03:32] <msshams> Fryguy--: can you clarify difference of these to me/.
[03:32] <msshams> ?
[03:32] <orbisvicis> Fryguy--, how would gdesklets be advantageous ?
[03:32] <webmasteroy> never used and IRC chat before either sorry well thanks for your help see what happens
[03:33] <Fryguy--> strange, I'd recommend changing the group on the directory to something you can use so you don't have to unnecessarily use root all of the time
[03:33] <Fryguy--> orbisvicis: no idea
[03:33] <orbisvicis> over screenlets
[03:33] <Averros> orbisvicis, Alright I figured out the problem... the visual effects had defaulted to off

[03:34] <Guest29846> anybody here who can help me with my audio problem for feisty?
[03:35] <Fryguy--> afallenhope: why are you warning me about my language, i have not used improper language anywhere in the channel
[03:35] <orbisvicis> m23k8, what provider
[03:35] <Guest29846> anybody here who can help me with my audio problem for feisty?
[03:35] <orbisvicis> depends, out of 1214 of us

[03:35] <m23k8> Verizon Fios
[03:35] <orbisvicis> m23k8, lol me too, they block prot 80
[03:35] <afallenhope> Fryguy--,  drwxr-xr-x 11 root root 4096 2008-07-04 00:10 /var/www
[03:35] <Fryguy--> afallenhope: which is why i conveniently linked you to the pastebin so you would have a link to use
[03:35] <afallenhope> Fryguy--, I know don't worry about it
[03:36] <orbisvicis> m23k8, (and discontinued usednet service too, havent you heard ? ; \)
[03:36] <Fryguy--> afallenhope: i'd recommend chgrp to a user so you don't have to do everything as root
[03:36] <m23k8> no i didn't
[03:36] <afallenhope> !chgrp
[03:36] <higer> Do anyone know how to uninstall a sofeware in Ubuntu?
[03:36] <Fryguy--> m23k8: fios blocks port 80 unless you have a business level plan
[03:36] <Fryguy--> higer: use synaptic
[03:36] <orbisvicis> m23k8, well let me guess the only other provider in your region is comcast ?
[03:36] <Fryguy--> higer: or from the command line apt-get remove nameofpackagehere
[03:36] <m23k8> BrightHouse
[03:36] <vaportrailnew123> whats the shortcut to switch between workspaces?
[03:37] <Fryguy--> vaportrailnew123: ctrl-alt-left and right should work
[03:37] <ninefold> higer: what software are you uninstalling?
[03:37] <vaportrailnew123> thanks
[03:37] <mib> another thing ikonia/bazhang: how long does it takes for the bug report to be responded normally?
[03:37] <orbisvicis> m23k8, hmm ok, never heard of it. Anyway, with fios you should get a semi-fancy router, look at port-forwarding
[03:37] <m23k8> dang i need another beer
[03:37] <orbisvicis> m23k8, and when thats fixed, look into dyndns + ddclient
[03:37] <vaportrailnew123> just tried it and it didnt work
[03:38] <higer> ninefold:the software which I use "apt-get" command to install
[03:38] <Jester45> aa thats what my server is missing ddclient
[03:38] <afallenhope> Fryguy--, chown -hR user:group /file/path/parent-dir ?
[03:38] <Fryguy--> orbisvicis: the fios router will do dyndns for you (if you are actually using the verizon router)
[03:38] <Jester45> thanks for the reminder orbisvicis
[03:38] <Fryguy--> afallenhope: sure
[03:38] <ninefold> higer: just type the same thing but instead of install type uninstall
[03:38] <orbisvicis> Jester45, np ;)
[03:38] <vaportrailnew123> whats the shortcut to switch between workspaces
[03:38] <orbisvicis> Fryguy--, nice
[03:38] <eZe> if a harddrive doesn't show up with fdisk -l, it doesn't exist/can't be accessed, correct?
[03:38] <orbisvicis> vaportrailnew123, depending on some keyboard layouts the right alt might not actually be an alt key
[03:39] <vaportrailnew123> i used the left one though lol
[03:39] <Fryguy--> vaportrailnew123: compizconfig-settings-manager and just configure it to whatever you want
[03:39] <vaportrailnew123> never mind
[03:39] <vaportrailnew123> got it
[03:39] <Guest29846> anybody here can help me with my audio problem in feisty?
[03:39] <higer> ninefold:I will try.
[03:39] <Fryguy--> !anyone | Guest29846
[03:40] <vaportrailnew123> how do i get to the compizconfig
[03:40] <higer> ninefold:Then,do you know what is the location when I install a software?
[03:40] <Fryguy--> vaportrailnew123: install compizconfig-settings-manager and run it

[03:41] <GOTFrogqc> Fryguy: thx you very much and same to bobertdos, it worked fine with ntfsfix
[03:41] <BaD_CrC> m23k8: lsusb
[03:41] <ninefold> higer: it knows where the program is and removes it. It's all automated.

[03:45] <Rezagrats> For some reason the flash installer isn't working right on the "enter mozilla, netscape, or opera path" it says "/usr/lib/mozilla" isn't a valid path. what's the actual path ??
[03:46] <r16k> Hai, how do I use flash? kthx
[03:46] <m23k8> grrr i installed php5 and it still doing that file download thing
[03:46] <spiritssight> Hello, I have a couple of issue when I run dmesg any help would be thankful
[03:46] <higer> What are the differences between ubuntu and kunbuntu or xubuntu?
[03:46] <Pici> !flavor | higer
[03:46] <Guest29846> yes, the volume has been turned up to the max, the driver is perfectly installed and i tried with various players like amarok, XMMS, rhythmbox etc
[03:46] <orbisvicis> Rezagrats, /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins or /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/
[03:46] <Guest29846> yes, the volume has been turned up to the max, the driver is perfectly installed and i tried with various players like amarok, XMMS, rhythmbox etc | FryGuy
[03:47] <Fryguy--> Guest29846: analog or digital output
[03:47] <orbisvicis> m23k8, go to 127.0.0.1/modules
[03:47] <Guest29846> im not sure, its the PC speaker
[03:47] <Fryguy--> Guest29846: find out
[03:47] <Guest29846> how do i find out?
[03:47] <pw-toxic> hey, if i click on the tab on the button of my desktop, the window disappears... is it possible to define a hotkey for this?
[03:48] <Fryguy--> Guest29846: look at the plug
[03:48] <Rezagrats> Orbisvicis: i just tried both, neither of them worked "WARNING: Please enter a valid installation path."
[03:48] <bobertdos> Fryguy: Geez, how long have you been here?? You've been answering stuff non-stop all day!
[03:48] <Fryguy--> bobertdos: i've been in here about 60 hours over the past 4 days
[03:48] <pw-toxic> Fryguy--: lol
[03:48] <orbisvicis> Rezagrats, then the problem most likely runs deeper, the ubuntu flash installer shouldnt ask you that
[03:48] <Guest29846> its a portable USB portable Pc speaker
[03:48] <Bora> NOKIA 3250 && Wammu? any way to get them connected.......
[03:48] <dal-work> hey all, anyone know of a simple way to set up an ftp server sharing a number of non-home directories (in this case subdirectories of various partitions mounted under /media) for users? about all I've found so far is ftp server programs that will give a user access to their home directory, in my case I dont' care whether the ftp server shares the hosts system's user list or not
[03:48] <bobertdos> Fryguy, you're insane or just very dedicated.
[03:48] <higer> !flavor higer
[03:48] <npope> ha this is going to seem silly but how do I tell if i installed 64bit version or 32bit version
[03:48] <Fryguy--> Guest29846: do you have a sound card in your computer as well
[03:48] <orbisvicis> Rezagrats, sudo updatedb;sudo locate -i libflashplayer.so
[03:49] <Fryguy--> bobertdos: i'm not dedicated to anything. i'm bored.  i don't even use ubuntu
[03:49] <Guest29846> FRyguy: I think so, yeah
[03:49] <Bora> any help for NOKIA and Wammu??
[03:49] <orbisvicis> dal-work, http://www.howtoforge.com/proftpd_mysql_virtual_hosting_debian_etch
[03:50] <Fryguy--> Guest29846: ubuntu is probably getting confused at having 2 sound cards then, and is trying to use the wrong one.  Go to the system menu under sounds and play around with mixer choices and stuff there until you get a configuration that works
[03:50] <Guest29846> Fryguy: Actually it works perfectly well on WIndows
[03:50] <Rezagrats> Orbisvicis: /usr/lib/flashplugin-nonfree/libflashplayer.so
[03:50] <Guest29846> Fryguy: I tried all that
[03:50] <Fryguy--> Guest29846: that doesnt mean anything
[03:50] <ubunubi> is it possible to disable gnomevfs ?
[03:50] <orbisvicis> npope, uname -a
[03:51] <Guest29846> Fryguy: Btw i had the same problem earlier, previously when i installed this
[03:51] <dal-work> orbisvicis, ty, I hadn't considered tying in a db server to the whole thing, just assumed there would be either a ftp server that did all that that I just couldn't find or a way to get vsftpd or the others I'd tried to do that without external help, but ty I'll have a look at that :)
[03:51] <Fryguy--> Guest29846: then maybe ubuntu doesn't support your usb sound card.  Try googling for specific information about the usb sound card and speakers you are using
[03:51] <npope> orbisvicis: what am i looking for 32bit is i386 and 64bit id i686?
[03:51] <bobertdos> Fryguy-- Lol, boredom, there's no motivator quite like it.
[03:51] <zenwryly> Is it possible to write scripts that perform a set of actions in an application that only provides a gui?
[03:51] <orbisvicis> Rezagrats, what flash installer ?
[03:51] <Fryguy--> npope: no
[03:51] <orbisvicis> i686 = 32 bit npope
[03:51] <npope> thats what i thought
[03:51] <npope> what is 64bit then/
[03:51] <Rezagrats> Orbisvicis: the adobe one (comes in a .tar.gz archive..)
[03:52] <orbisvicis> npope, its better than i386 though be glad it upgraded
[03:52] <Fryguy--> npope: on standard desktop machines it is amd64
[03:52] <bobertdos> Fryguy-- So what distros DO you use?
[03:52] <npope> Linux linuxbox 2.6.24-19-generic #1 SMP Wed Jun 18 14:43:41 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
[03:52] <Fryguy--> bobertdos: windows
[03:52] <npope> so i am running 32bit?
[03:52] <beardbar> anyone know an all in one apache/mysql/php package that i can install from ubuntu desktop or do i need to install each one seperatly?
[03:52] <Guest29846> Fryguy: Nope. Actually everything is right. The last time i installed it i had the same problem and i got it fixed, but i dont know how
[03:52] <Fryguy--> npope: yes
[03:52] <orbisvicis> Fryguy--, ? x86_64 = 64bit
[03:52] <npope> thank god
[03:52] <npope> thanks!
[03:52] <Fryguy--> orbisvicis: sure
[03:52] <GOTFrogqc> Hi I'm back I have an other question, when I log I get this message
[03:52] <GOTFrogqc> User's $HOME/.drmc file is being ignored.  This prevents the default session and languageg from being saved.  File should be owned by user and have 644 permissions.  User's $HOME directory must be owned by user and not writable by other users.
[03:53] <Captainkidd> Alright is this REALLY necessary! Pop-up every five seconds telling me a graphics-card driver is working...
[03:53] <Fryguy--> GOTFrogqc: delete ~/.dmrc and restart X
[03:53] <blind1> is  ubuntu-8.04.1-dvd-amd64.iso  broken? tried to burn it 2 times, and dvd check function always show 1 error. (boot and load fine)
[03:53] <orbisvicis> beardbar, the best way is individually, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[03:53] <bobertdos> Fryguy-- X-D You had me totally fooled. Hahaha!!
[03:53] <GOTFrogqc> Fryguy: how do I do it?
[03:53] <Fryguy--> GOTFrogqc: rm ~/.dmrc
[03:53] <Guest29846> Fryguy: The last time this person asked me to paste some code and modify it, but now unfortunately, i don't remember
[03:54] <Fryguy--> bobertdos: why?
[03:54] <orbisvicis> Fryguy--, my bad
[03:54] <orbisvicis> misread you
[03:54] <GOTFrogqc> how do i restart X
[03:54] <derek> how do I remotely start a gui app from ssh session?
[03:54] <Fryguy--> GOTFrogqc: ctrl-alt-backspace
[03:55] <Fryguy--> derek: use ssh -X
[03:55] <derek> ah ty
[03:55] <npope> damn Fryguy-- your fast
[03:55] <Fryguy--> derek: and make sure xauth is installed and working, you might need to export DISPLAY as well
[03:55] <Guest29846> Fryguy: Any idea?
[03:55] <Fryguy--> Guest29846: i've told you want to do, i have nothing else to add. sorry
[03:55] <derek> oh wait i have xdmcp enabled too
[03:56] <Fryguy--> derek: xdmcp is something different from X11 forwarding
[03:56] <bobertdos> Fryguy-- I assumed you had to be a hardcore Linux user for as much as you know :p
[03:56] <Fryguy--> bobertdos: i dont' really know anything about linux
[03:56] <derek> i know, but i can run a remote xdmcp session and run my gui app
[03:56] <Fryguy--> bobertdos: most of the stuff in this channel is either easily googlable, complete common sense, or something you learn within 1 week of usage in a *nix system.
[03:57] <blind1> anyone use  ubuntu-8.04.1-dvd-amd64.iso ?  may you run disc check? (maybe disc check function is broken?)

[03:58] <pw-toxic> hehe
[03:58] <m23k8> hey fry you there now
[03:59] <Fryguy--> m23k8: no
[03:59] <m23k8> ok now tell me what you see at http://72.91.119.221
[03:59] <Fryguy--> m23k8: port 85?
[03:59] <m23k8> no
[03:59] <dal-work> orbisvicis, that link you posted seems to explain about half of what I need, but I also need the ftpuser to be able to access a number of directories in different spots on my filesystem (i.e. /media/hda2/stuff, /media/hdb5/more stuff, /media/sda1/other stuff), how would i go about allowing access to those directories without allowing access to the rest of my filesystem? I can't just grab everything from those dirs and put them in /home/ftpu
[03:59] <dal-work> ser due to disk space constraints
[03:59] <Fryguy--> m23k8: what port then, as we've already told you fios blocks port 80
[04:00] <m23k8> yea 85 my bad
[04:00] <orbisvicis> dal-work, try symlinks, i hope
[04:00] <Fryguy--> m23k8: nothing, lookings like apache is down, or you aren't forwarding the port
[04:00] <m23k8> hmm
[04:01] <dal-work> orbisvicis, k, not to sure about that either but I'll give it a shot, thanks again :)
[04:01] <blind1> what is option to boot livecd to memory?
[04:02] <orbisvicis> dal-work, i think: show symlinks, and define multiple <directory> directives
[04:02] <Guest29846> no audio gets played on ubuntu
[04:02] <m23k8> ok sorry i forgot that i changed the system name in my router
[04:03] <m23k8> ok should work now
[04:03] <RaPhAeLSL> Hi people, someone can give me one minute of atention? i'm trying using ubuntu 8.04 but i'm having problens on instalation
[04:03] <Fryguy--> m23k8: no
[04:03] <Fryguy--> !anyone | RaPhAeLSL
[04:04] <RaPhAeLSL> ok
[04:04] <Bradj479> i have a problem with Nexuiz
[04:04] <Bradj479> it won't start up
[04:04] <blind1> i have problem! anyone can help? :/
[04:05] <xtknight> !anyone|blind1
[04:05] <xtknight> Bradj479, what does it report in the console?
[04:05] <Guest29846> i have a problem with my audio system
[04:05] <RaPhAeLSL> does anyone knows how to solve the GRUB's 21 erro on inicialization?
[04:05] <Bradj479> nothing, a window comes up then goes away
[04:05] <orbisvicis> Bradj479, it doesnt like you
[04:05] <xtknight> Guest29846, be alittle more specific if possible
[04:05] <Fryguy--> !grub | RaPhAeLSL
[04:05] <m23k8> ok one last try
[04:06] <xtknight> Bradj479, have you tried executing it from the context of a terminal?  type "nexuiz" in the terminal program and watch for output
[04:06] <ziggy_> does any one know how i can make my linux look like an apple computer on the bottem ?
[04:06] <Guest29846> ok! so this is the case: i can hear the startup sound but i can't play any of the music files
[04:06] <m23k8> strange i can see it if i go 192.168.1.4:85 but not if i go 72.91.119.221:85
[04:06] <xtknight> ziggy_, ya you want the cool task selector thing?
[04:06] <orbisvicis> Bradj479, open nexuiz from the terminal, tell us the error
[04:06] <orbisvicis> and try the sdl and glx versions
[04:06] <Fryguy--> ziggy_: try avant window navigator
[04:07] <Bradj479> Trying to load library... "libmodplug.so.0" "libmodplug.so" "/usr/lib/games/nexuiz/libmodplug.so.0" "/usr/lib/games/nexuiz/libmodplug.so" - failed.
[04:07] <Bradj479> Trying to load library... "libOffscreenGecko.so" "/usr/lib/games/nexuiz/libOffscreenGecko.so" - failed.
[04:07] <Bradj479> some failure
[04:07] <Guest29846> xtknight: i can hear the startup sound but i can't play any of the music files
[04:07] <xtknight> Bradj479, are you using i386 or x86_64 ubuntu?
[04:07] <Bradj479> x86
[04:07] <Bradj479> i think
[04:07] <ziggy_> how do i get my hands on avant windows navigator ?
[04:07] <orbisvicis> m23k8, your public ip changed. or your nortforwarding the right port. or you have a firewall. or apache is listening on a different port
[04:07] <JuJuBee> I just got done formatting my 400GB external drive ext3.  It used to auto mount as /media/400G  How do I make it so that happens again.  It is mounting as /media/disk
[04:07] <Fryguy--> ziggy_: it's in the ubuntu repositories, just use synaptic to install it
[04:07] <xtknight> Guest29846, okay.  gstreamer(an audio framework) is probably choosing the wrong driver.  go into system->preferences->Sound and look at the devices in there
[04:08] <xtknight> Bradj479, how did you install nexuiz?
[04:08] <Bradj479> from  the add/remove thing in the apps menu
[04:08] <xtknight> Bradj479, that's good.  give me a moment to see if it's a bug in the package
[04:09] <Bradj479> i played it once
[04:09] <xtknight> oh it hasnt worked ever since?
[04:09] <Fryguy--> ziggy_: synaptic package manager in the system menu.  Pretty straightforward process
[04:09] <Bradj479> no
[04:09] <Bradj479> just today
[04:09] <Bradj479> then i quit to send an email
[04:09] <Bradj479> when i tried starting it back up it wouldn't work
[04:09] <Guest29846> xtknight: YAh, there are two default mixer tracks -> ONe, is analog oss mixer and the other is Hda intel alsa mixer
[04:09] <xtknight> Bradj479, do you remember installing any web or email software, or firefox or gecko anything?
[04:09] <ziggy_> ok i'm in there
[04:10] <xtknight> Bradj479, (since it stopped working)_
[04:10] <Bradj479> no
[04:10] <Fryguy--> xtknight: he's using a usb sound card that isn't listed there
[04:10] <xtknight> Guest29846, look under Sound Playback
[04:10] <Guest29846> xtknight: no, its not a usb sound card
[04:10] <Bradj479> there was an annoying thing bouncing around my screen telling me to update to the next version
[04:10] <Bradj479> should i do that?
[04:10] <Fryguy--> Guest29846: you said earlier it was
[04:10] <xtknight> Guest29846, i want you to go to gnome-sound-properties and look under Audio conf->Sound playback
[04:11] <ziggy_> any thing perticular i'm looking for?
[04:11] <orbisvicis> Bradj479, did you reboot, in case its still running, and did you check that those files exist ?
[04:11] <xtknight> Bradj479, you can try updating before assuming errors
[04:11] <Fryguy--> ziggy_: you want to install avant window navigator right?
[04:11] <Bradj479> ok
[04:11] <xtknight> Bradj479, two packages may have gotten "out of sync"
[04:11] <ziggy_> yes ser i think thats it
[04:11] <Guest29846> Fryguy: SOrry, i said it was a PC speaker connected through the USB
[04:11] <xtknight> hmmm
[04:12] <xtknight> wha???
[04:12] <Fryguy--> Guest29846: connected through usb = usb sound card
[04:12] <comodo> i installed kubuntu the other day because i mistakenly downloaded it instead of ubuntu so instead of correcting my own problem a and downloading ubuntu i just installed ubuntu-desktop through apt-get
[04:12] <coil> is there resize2fs, tune2fs on ubntu 8.04 livecd
[04:12] <comodo> now can anyone tell me if i can get rid of kubuntu-desktop now that i have ubuntu
[04:12] <Guest29846> xtknight: sorry, but where is gnome-sound properties?
[04:12] <Mana|Ubuntu> Anyone here know how to set up dual monitors (I have an 8800GTS)? I used envy and nvidia-settings, and I can see stuff at the proper resolutons on both monitors, but when I maximize stuff, I want it to just show up on the main monitor, and I only want my desktop on one monitor.
[04:12] <Fryguy--> comodo: sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop
[04:12] <xtknight> Guest29846, SYstem->Preferences->Sound
[04:12] <xtknight> Guest29846, or type gnome-sound-properties in the terminal
[04:13] <coil> is there resize2fs, tune2fs on ubntu 8.04 livecd
[04:13] <xtknight> Mana|Ubuntu, use twinview??
[04:13] <Mana|Ubuntu> I am
[04:13] <xtknight> Mana|Ubuntu, change the xinerama reporting mode, it is in the x configuration manual for NVIDIA Driver.  i will link it
[04:13] <orbisvicis> coil, might be, but look slike you might prefer parted magic
[04:13] <coil> parted magic?
[04:13] <Fryguy--> Mana|Ubuntu: that's a function of the window manager you use.  Take a look at compizconfig-settings-manager to see if it has an option for configuring that, otherwise you'll have to use another window manager (or many play around with xinerama settings in X11 since compiz should be xinerama-aware)
[04:13] <coil> gparted?
[04:13] <orbisvicis> coil, no, live cd
[04:14] <Guest29846> xtknight: Yah, Done! the default mixer is HDA Intel (ALSA mixer)
[04:14] <orbisvicis> coil, http://partedmagic.com/wiki/PartedMagic.php
[04:14] <Guest29846> xtknight: When i press test, no sound gets playbacked
[04:14] <Mana|Ubuntu> compizconfig-settings-manager isin't a command :|
[04:14] <Fryguy--> Mana|Ubuntu: so install it
[04:14] <Mana|Ubuntu> oh righ
[04:14] <xtknight> Mana|Ubuntu, TwinViewXineramaInfoOrder at   http://us.download.nvidia.com/solaris/1.0-9755/README/appendix-d.html
[04:14] <ziggy_> Win32 audio/video plugin for libavifile
[04:14] <ziggy_> This package provides a plugin for the avifile library to compress
[04:14] <ziggy_> and decompress audio/video streams with the help of Win32 (i386)
[04:14] <ziggy_> DLL libraries (codecs). Default location for them is /usr/lib/win32.

[04:15] <Guest29846> xtknight: DO you want me to check any other properties?
[04:15] <xtknight> Mana|Ubuntu, sorry i meant NoTwinViewXineramaInfo
[04:16] <xtknight> Guest29846, change the mixer
[04:16] <xtknight> Guest29846, or the device..and press test again
[04:16] <Fryguy--> xtknight: the device isn't listed
[04:16] <xtknight> Guest29846,  or, this is a usb sound card, and it's not listed?  check "asoundconf list" as well
[04:16] <s3a> for my signature in ubuntuforums how can i make a small word link to a website?
[04:16] <Guest29846> xtknight: Tried, that too.... all possible variations. tried using headphones too
[04:17] <xtknight> if not then i guess it needs drivers :|
[04:17] <CodddEr> i want to install ubuntu on pc that have windows now , so where to create the partition and after D , before C , or between C and D ?
[04:17] <Fryguy--> lol xtknight try listening to me next time, i informed you of this a while ago lol
[04:17] <xtknight> Fryguy--, hehe i know
[04:17] <xtknight> i have a one track mind and must get one message out before thinking
[04:17] <Chaotic_Descent> since I installed some restricted drivers that include Flash playback codecs, Flash video files aren't being played in FireFox like they used to. How do I fix that?
[04:17] <Fryguy--> CodddEr: it doesn't matter, ubuntu will take care of it for you while installing
[04:17] <Guest29846> xtknight: It says names of available sound cards: Intel
[04:18] <AtomicSpark> i'm having kernal panics while installing ubuntu on an old sony laptop. i googled and found this thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=770575&page=2 anyways, how should i debug this? try noapci first?
[04:18] <MousyManatee> Anyone know what could be causing Ubuntu to shut down 47 secs after the mouse icon appears on screen?
[04:18] <CodddEr> Fryguy-- , i prefer to make my on my own with partition magic on windows ( bad expiriance with ubuntu creating )
[04:18] <kadallas> part
[04:18] <xtknight> Guest29846, type  "sudo lshw -C sound"  and please pastebin this
[04:18] <xtknight> !pastebin
[04:18] <Fryguy--> CodddEr: so then do that, and don't forget to create a swap partition
[04:19] <ziggy_> ok after installing it what do i have to do after words ?
[04:19] <CodddEr> Fryguy-- , but where to create it ?
[04:19] <Fryguy--> ziggy_: run it
[04:19] <Fryguy--> CodddEr: as i said in a previous message, it doesn't matter
[04:19] <CodddEr> ko
[04:19] <CodddEr> ok
[04:19] <ziggy_> does it work with compiz fushion?
[04:19] <orbisvicis> Guest29846, lsusb, modprobe snd-usb-audio, ?
[04:19] <mattjackets> my MBR got reclaimed by Windows, and can't seem to get the boot options right when trying to boot the kernel on /dev/sda2 from the cd.
[04:19] <Fryguy--> ziggy_: yes
[04:19] <CodddEr> Fryguy-- , primary or logic partition ?
[04:20] <Fryguy--> !grub | mattjackets
[04:20] <Fryguy--> CodddEr: again, doesn't matter
[04:20] <lowlux> i have for got to the command for admin...
[04:20] <CodddEr> ok and EXT2 or EXT3 ?
[04:20] <Fryguy--> lowlux: sudo
[04:20] <Guest29846> xtknight: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25565/
[04:20] <lowlux> thank you
[04:20] <Fryguy--> CodddEr: ext3 or reiserfs are the most common choices
[04:20] <xtknight> Guest29846, can you do a regular "sudo lshw" this time as well
[04:20] <Deecodeuh1> I like how our conversations are logged: http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2008/07/07/%23ubuntu.txt
[04:20] <mattjackets> Fryguy: Thanks, but for now I just need to leave the MBR as is, and boot manually from the CD.
[04:21] <Guest29846> xtknight: yah, sure
[04:21] <lowlux> wine: /home/lowlux/.wine is not owned by you
[04:21] <Chaotic_Descent> Is there a way to find the Flash driver that got installed in the package I installed, so I can uninstall just the flash playback?
[04:21] <lowlux> huh
[04:21] <CodddEr> 9 GB partition and 1 GB swap are anought ?
[04:21] <ziggy_> how would i run it in terminal
[04:21] <Fryguy--> mattjackets: try booting from cd, mounting your filesystem and taking a look at menu.lst to see the boot line that grub was trying to use before?
[04:21] <xtknight> Chaotic_Descent, flash plugin is called flashplugin-nonfree if you're using ADobe Flash
[04:21] <xtknight> or 'gnash' or something if it's the free one
[04:21] <Fryguy--> CodddEr: sure, unless you need more information about hibernation
[04:22] <Chaotic_Descent> xtknight: thanks, I'll try that.
[04:22] <ziggy_> how would i run it in terminal
[04:22] <Fryguy--> ziggy_: type something like "avant-window-navigator" in the terminal
[04:22] <xtknight> ziggy_, click applications->accessories->terminal, and the name of the application
[04:22] <xtknight> (and enter)
[04:22] <Fryguy--> ziggy_: the application is probably in the applications menu already though, so just run it from there
[04:23] <Guest29846> xtknight: Here u go -> http://paste.ubuntu.com/25567/
[04:23] <mattjackets> Fryguy: I did, and saw the link in /initrd.gz and the /vmlinuz link.  I tried using "vmlinuz initrd=/initrd.gz root=/dev/sda2 ro" and a few variations without success
[04:23] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> How do I upgrade 7.10 from a CD?
[04:23] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> Can anyone give me some one-on-one?
[04:23] <Fryguy--> mattjackets: what did menu.lst use as a boot line
[04:23] <Fryguy--> !anybody | Linux_Is_For_Gan
[04:24] <orbisvicis> for how many people has the upgrade gone smoothly, and how much space did it eat ?
[04:24] <xtknight> Guest29846, hmm i'm not seeeing a usb sound card here.  only a modem and System Management bus, which don't sound like it
[04:24] <Fryguy--> Linux_Is_For_Gan: sorry didn't see the first line.  Just put the 8.04 cd in and use the upgrade option
[04:24] <Fryguy--> orbisvicis: what upgrade
[04:24] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> Okay.
[04:24] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> Upgrade from upgrade manager?
[04:24] <Fryguy--> Linux_Is_For_Gan: sure
[04:24] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> Aye aye.
[04:24] <Chaotic_Descent> damnit. firefox flash playback is broken. I uninstalled  flashplugin-nonfree and it still won't load them in firefox
[04:24] <orbisvicis> ubuntu X -> ubuntu Y
[04:24] <xtknight> Guest29846, i think sometimes modems are paired with sound but how exactly are you connecting this to your laptop, and what is it?
[04:24] <orbisvicis> Fryguy--,
[04:24] <Fryguy--> orbisvicis: works fine most of the time
[04:24] <xtknight> Chaotic_Descent, i think that you want to uninstall gnash and install flashplugin-nonfree
[04:25] <xtknight> gnash doesnt work all that well, yet
[04:25] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> Fryguy: Will a CD upgrade install anything?
[04:25] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> Like, download.
[04:25] <Chaotic_Descent> xtknight: oh. I hadn't even heard of gnash.
[04:25] <Fryguy--> Linux_Is_For_Gan: no idea
[04:25] <Fryguy--> Linux_Is_For_Gan: probably not
[04:25] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> XD, okay.
[04:25] <xtknight> !gnash | Chaotic_Descent
[04:25] <kevin__> Does anyone know the name of the gstreamer codec needed to play mp4 video?
[04:26] <orbisvicis> xtknight, lsusb, (if nothing grep dmesg), then modprobe usb-snd-audio + lsmod
[04:26] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> How do I reinstall GRUB? Is it hard?
[04:26] <Chaotic_Descent> ... that's strange. I hadn't installed ANYTHING and Flash just played normally in FireFox. Since I installed drivers for playing MP3 and DVDs, it's buggered up.
[04:26] <xtknight> kevin__, i would install all the gstreamer0.10-plugins-* packages
[04:26] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> And is there a GUI?
[04:26] <Fryguy--> !grub
[04:26] <xtknight> orbisvicis, thx
[04:26] <Owner> hi
[04:27] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> fryguy: will one of those tell how to reinstall?
[04:27] <Chaotic_Descent> xtknight: gnash isn't even installed.
[04:27] <Fryguy--> Linux_Is_For_Gan: yes
[04:27] <Guest29846> xtknight: no. i think i explained it wrongly, its the normal PC speakers. there's no USB sound cards. i tried replacing the speakers now with normal desktop speakers. it still dosent workand its not a laptop
[04:27] <xtknight> Chaotic_Descent, does flash appear if you type about:plugins in firefox address bar
[04:27] <xtknight> Guest29846, ah my mistake.  so how did you hook up the new speakers?  isn't it a minijack?
[04:28] <orbisvicis> anyone use salasaga ?
[04:28] <Fryguy--> !anyone | orbisvicis
[04:28] <Chaotic_Descent> xtknight: yes. Shockwave Flash   File name: libflashplayer.so   Shockwave Flash 9.0 r124
[04:28] <Fryguy--> orbisvicis: how many times have you seen me type that today, you should be learning by now
[04:28] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> Anyone know how much/if anything upgrading to 8.04 from CD will install from 7.10?
[04:28] <Guest29846> xtknight: i dont know, in that port given behind the CPU
[04:28] <orbisvicis> dal-work, did you get it to work ?
[04:28] <xtknight> Chaotic_Descent, try closing every firefox window you have open, and then try a flash site.  sometimes flash just gets 'stuck'  it's still a bug
[04:28] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> (Sorry, fryguy.)
[04:29] <orbisvicis> Fryguy--, what am i supposed to show, show of hands how many have used salasaga and think its good
[04:29] <Fryguy--> Guest29846: is it optical, digital coax, or a noraml headphone like jack
[04:29] <mattjackets> Fryguy: oh, do you have to use the UUID to specify the root?
[04:29] <orbisvicis> i was looking for overwhelming response
[04:29] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> Will a 7.10 -> 8.04 upgrade d'load anything?
[04:29] <xtknight> Guest29846, can you give the model of the speakers or maybe where you got them from?
[04:29] <mardosdavidian> hello people
[04:29] <Chaotic_Descent> well I'm opening .swf files hosted on an imageboard. they're not embedded in a web page.
[04:29] <tritium> Linux_Is_For_Gan: absolutely
[04:29] <Fryguy--> mattjackets: no idea
[04:29] <xtknight> mattjackets, i thought it was backwards compatible
[04:29] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> Tritium: what? How much?
[04:29] <ziggy_> Fry guy i installed libwnck-dev
[04:29] <ziggy_> Window Navigator Construction Kit - development files is this the one you where talking about
[04:30] <xtknight> Chaotic_Descent, close every firefox window you have open and try again?
[04:30] <tinin> hey what's the fastest way to transfer files in a LAN? smb, sftp...?
[04:30] <Fryguy--> ziggy_: no
[04:30] <tritium> Linux_Is_For_Gan: a few hundres megabytes
[04:30] <Fryguy--> tinin: netcat is the fastest method
[04:30] <Fryguy--> tinin: nfs and ftp are the fastest usable methods
[04:30] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> Tritium: I'm upgrading from CD.
[04:30] <ziggy_>  avant-window-navigator
[04:30] <ziggy_>  i searched for this couldn't come up with anything
[04:30] <Fryguy--> ziggy_: many just search for avant
[04:30] <tritium> Linux_Is_For_Gan: even still, there have been several updates since 8.04 was released.
[04:30] <xtknight> !universe | ziggy_
[04:30] <mardosdavidian> can anyone here help me im trying iwpriv i keep getting iwpriv no private ioctls
[04:31] <erichammond> tinin: rsync works well, especially if you are copying files that have changed from the target and the network is slow.
[04:31] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> tritium: Oh, then I gotta wait till 12:00 midnight.  Hughesnet SUCKS.
[04:31] <orbisvicis> id guess the barest method, without authentication, but with decent tcp support to avoid blockages
[04:31] <orbisvicis> Fryguy--, how do you use netcat that way ?
[04:31] <tritium> Linux_Is_For_Gan: if you have an 8.04.1 CD, it won't be too bad.
[04:31] <Chaotic_Descent> xtknight: I did that. it still won't work. Why is it not letting FireFox load the file? It's asking me what application I should open the file with.
[04:31] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> tritium: I have the cd, will it be over say, 150 mb?
[04:31] <Fryguy--> orbisvicis: same way you'd use cat to transfer something from one file to another locally, except you have to use a pipe instead since the process on the other end is receiving
[04:32] <xtknight> Chaotic_Descent, i see.  because the server from whcih you're loading it is specifying invalid mime types, or something like that.
[04:32] <tritium> Linux_Is_For_Gan: which CD?  8.04, or 8.04.1?
[04:32] <xtknight> Chaotic_Descent, you need a standalone flash application to see them, or maybe you need to embed them in a webpage
[04:32] <dal-work> orbisvicis, sorry, got called away, actually still sorting out ports on the router atm
[04:32] <tinin> I need something easy, with the filemanager to transfer from one pc to a notebook
[04:32] <tinin> 60gb
[04:32] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> tritium: 8.04 I think.
[04:32] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> tritium: I got it from a friend.
[04:32] <Guest29846> fryguy: its normal the normal lenovo speakers
[04:32] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> tritium: how can I tell?
[04:32] <Chaotic_Descent> xtknight: why can't I load them in FireFox without proper mime types?
[04:32] <tritium> Linux_Is_For_Gan: Then it'll be a lot
[04:32] <Chaotic_Descent> wait... that doesn't make sense. they were loading fine before.
[04:32] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> Aaahhhh
[04:32] <Fryguy--> orbisvicis: netcat in listen mode on one machine, set to redirect output to a file, netcat in send mode on other machine, piped input from the file you want to transfer
[04:33] <orbisvicis> Fryguy--, interesting. dont much about netcat, it automates the process of creating a port, a stream, + tcp packages ?
[04:33] <xtknight> Chaotic_Descent, mime types are given by the server.  you might be able to, i'm just not sure how.  something client side could also have been screwed up
[04:33] <Fryguy--> orbisvicis: yes
[04:33] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> "You have to download a total of 791M." That's like, bigger than the OS.
[04:33] <tinin> is samba slower than nfs or sftp?
[04:33] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> tritium: hwo do I get 8.04.1?
[04:33] <Fryguy--> tinin: yes
[04:33] <orbisvicis> Fryguy--, can you show me the setup, cli etc ?
[04:33] <Shoopuf> How can I go about asking someone to put a new NetBeans in the repository?
[04:33] <Fryguy--> orbisvicis: no
[04:33] <tinin> :S
[04:33] <mardosdavidian> anyone know when i do the command iwpriv i get no private ioctls?
[04:33] <ziggy__> there is nothing under that fry guy i'm sorry ? any other suggestions
[04:34] <orbisvicis> Fryguy--, i mean the netcat commands
[04:34] <Chaotic_Descent> I spent 2 @#$%ing hours last night trying to get MP3 and DVD to play in Ubuntu, and now I'm going to have to spend more hours to unbreak Flash playback. ARG!
[04:34] <Fryguy--> ziggy_: see the messages above about enabling extra repositories
[04:34] <Fryguy--> orbisvicis: like i said, no
[04:34] <orbisvicis> oh : (
[04:34] <Chaotic_Descent> 2 hours, and getting two things to work makes another thing NOT work.
[04:34] <s3a> any1 no how to make a word be a link in a signature in ubuntuforums?
[04:34] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> Can I get a walkthrough reinstalling GRUB?
[04:34] <Fryguy--> orbisvicis: the netcat i use is different than the netcat you have, so they wouldn't be of any use to you
[04:34] <tritium> Linux_Is_For_Gan: http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.04.1/
[04:34] <ziggy__> no i don't i have to jump out of IRC
[04:34] <xtknight> Chaotic_Descent, it would be somewhere in /usr/share/mime, but honestly i dont know how to fix that ... something in  "locate -i mime | grep flash" that got modified.  if you give me a URL with just a swf i might be able to help you
[04:34] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows Is that page reinstalling GRUB?
[04:34] <Fryguy--> !grub | Linux_Is_For_Gan  (this IS a walkthrough)
[04:35] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> Okay, okay.
[04:35] <ziggy__> so after i refresh i lost everything earler
[04:35] <orbisvicis> Fryguy--, np
[04:35] <binskipy2u> hey guys, is there a runtime level program like "bum" for ubuntu, for KDE?
[04:35] <Fryguy--> !universe | ziggy_
[04:35] <orbisvicis> finally got something to do
[04:35] <binskipy2u> to tweak startup services
[04:35] <Guest29846> fryguy: its normal the normal lenovo speakers
[04:35] <binskipy2u> or does BUM work on kde too?
[04:35] <m23k8> hey fry what do you see now at http://72.91.119.221:85
[04:35] <Fryguy--> binskipy2u: runtime happens before loading of X, let alone desktop managers, what exactly do you mean
[04:35] <m23k8> i think i got it now
[04:35] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> Is reinstalling GRUB hard?
[04:35] <Fryguy--> Guest29846: i have no idea
[04:35] <binskipy2u> services
[04:35] <Chaotic_Descent> xtknight: uh... ok. I'll pick a small 300KB file. http://www.7chan.org/fl/src/FreeWill.swf
[04:35] <xtknight> m23k8, the site works for me. account name/password/email
[04:35] <Rat409> binskipy2u: ksysv
[04:35] <binskipy2u> disabling services you DONT need to run
[04:35] <Fryguy--> Linux_Is_For_Gan: we've already told you, no. why do you keep asking the same questions over and over
[04:36] <m23k8> thanks
[04:36] <Guest29846> xtknight: its the normal speakers
[04:36] <binskipy2u> ksysv is installable thru synaptic?
[04:36] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> Fryguy: Sorry, I didn't know anyone answered that.
[04:36] <xtknight> Chaotic_Descent, ya this loads for me in firefox directly. hmmm
[04:36] <Fryguy--> m23k8: please use my whole nickname if you want me to see it
[04:36] <m23k8> ohh ok
[04:36] <m23k8> sorry

[04:36] <Chaotic_Descent> I'm going to look at the restricted drivers I installed yesterday and see if I can find the name of the Flash player that was in one of the packages. that's got to be the culprit.
[04:37] <Chaotic_Descent> Medibuntu
[04:37] <xtknight> Chaotic_Descent, it is flashplugin-nonfree, but that *shouldn't* have messed it up alone
[04:37] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> If I upgrade my 7.10 to 8.04 will it remake GRUB?
[04:37] <xtknight> hmmm
[04:37] <Rat409> binskipy2u: dunno nt familiar w/kubuntu these days,its also not as simple to use. rcsysv is ncusres and pretty similar overall
[04:37] <Fryguy--> Linux_Is_For_Gan: you don't need to change grub at all to do that
[04:37] <Shoopuf> Did I do something wrong... When I first installed Ubuntu under "Hardware Drivers" it used to show my Nvidia card... It asked me to download yesterday but I had to cancel the download cause my Internet was too slow... Now I open "Hardware Drivers" again and my Nvidia card isn't showing up??
[04:38] <binskipy2u> thanks
[04:38] <xtknight> what populates  /usr/share/mime/application/
[04:38] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> Fryguy: Linux mint jacked my GRUB.
[04:38] <Chaotic_Descent> xtknight:  what else did I change... I was messing with proxies and Tor as well. *sigh*
[04:38] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> I need to get it back to Ubuntu's so I can remove Linux Mint.
[04:38] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> Unless there's an easier way to remove Linux Mint.
[04:38] <Fryguy--> Linux_Is_For_Gan: so then do that, upgrading ubuntu won't remake grub because it doesn't think it needs to
[04:38] <xtknight> Chaotic_Descent, maybe you want to do this  "sudo apt-get --reinstall install gnome-mime-data"
[04:38] <xtknight> dunnno
[04:38] <Fryguy--> Linux_Is_For_Gan: you've been given plenty of resources about grub, go do what you need to do
[04:39] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> Fryguy: How can I remove Linux Mint then, without messing up GRUB?
[04:39] <Fryguy--> Linux_Is_For_Gan: you don't, you need to install grub again first
[04:39] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> That's what I thought.
[04:39] <Linux_Is_For_Gan> Aight. Thanks all!
[04:39] <Shoopuf> Did I do something wrong... When I first installed Ubuntu under "Hardware Drivers" it used to show my Nvidia card... It asked me to download yesterday but I had to cancel the download cause my Internet was too slow... Now I open "Hardware Drivers" again and my Nvidia card isn't showing up??
[04:39] <administrator> help
[04:39] <Fryguy--> !ask | administrator
[04:40] <bob3213243> What is the terminal shutdown command?
[04:40] <Fryguy--> bob3213243: shutdown -h now
[04:40] <Chaotic_Descent> hrm... there's an Ubuntu-restricted-extras I installed that includes Flash plugin... but I don't know how to find out the name of it.
[04:40] <Guest29846> Fryguy: what about headphones? They dont work either
[04:40] <xtknight> Chaotic_Descent, if you would, try tihs "sudo apt-get --reinstall install shared-mime-info mime-support gnome-mime-data"
[04:40] <Rat409> binarydigit: sorry confusion here its sysvcofig ncurses front-end
[04:40] <Fryguy--> Guest29846: i've told you numerous times already. I have no idea
[04:41] <Guest29846> Fryguy:  sorry
[04:41] <Rat409> /sysvcofig/sysvconfig darn keybd
[04:41] <Chaotic_Descent> xtknight: hrm... something else is using it. I can't do it. but I closed FireFox.
[04:41] <LSD|Ninja> Chaotic_Descent: restricted-extras is just a metapackage, fire up synaptic and search for flash. That should point you in the right direction
[04:41] <Guest29846> xtknight: hey, ny idea?
[04:41] <Chaotic_Descent> oh sorry. n/m. package manager was blocking it.
[04:41] <xtknight> Chaotic_Descent, close synaptic or wait for update manager to finish
[04:41] <s3a> is the channel for ubuntuforums #ubuntuforums?
[04:41] <Fryguy--> s3a: try it and see
[04:41] <xtknight> Chaotic_Descent, dpkg -s ubuntu-restricted-extras|grep Recommends
[04:41] <xtknight> that tells you the flash pkg
[04:42] <xtknight> Guest29846, sorry i simply dont know how you plugged in the speakers or what usb had to do with is.
[04:42] <Chaotic_Descent> xtknight: Couldn't find package gnome-mime-dat
[04:42] <xtknight> has to do with it
[04:42] <knx3r> hi all, can i install php4_ 4.3.4 on ubuntu 8.04?
[04:42] <xtknight> Chaotic_Descent, gnome-mime-data
[04:42] <Fryguy--> knx3r: apt-cache search php to see what is available
[04:42] <Guest29846> xtknight: forget the USB, i cant hear nything on the headphones either?
[04:42] <xtknight> Guest29846, do you mean the headphone jack NEAR the usb port??
[04:42] <Chaotic_Descent> ... woops. -_-;
[04:43] <xtknight> Guest29846, ok.
[04:43] <Shoopuf> How do I install GNOME icon packs? It is like a full suite of icons that will replace everything I think.
[04:43] <xtknight> Guest29846, i understand, but have no immediate solution for you
[04:43] <s3a> Fryguy--: its not it cuz i was the only user
[04:43] <Fryguy--> Shoopuf: under the appearances menu, there is an install theme button, just use that.  or put it into ~/.icons folder
[04:43] <Vic> does anyone know if the Kworld ATSC 120 is supported by Ubuntu 7.10?
[04:43] <Chaotic_Descent> xtknight:  well that didn't fix it. did you want me to also run:  dpkg -s ubuntu-restricted-extras|grep
[04:43] <xtknight> Guest29846, open the sound properties and try to get your headphones to work by adjusting the audio playback settings.  if none of that works, you need to open gnome-volume-control and mess with the options in there
[04:44] <BeepII> Does Ubuntu 8.04 support graphics cards that are integrated into the motherboard?
[04:44] <xtknight> Chaotic_Descent, this didn't fix it? "sudo apt-get --reinstall install shared-mime-info mime-support gnome-mime-data"
[04:44] <Fryguy--> BeepII: yes
[04:44] <BeepII> Mine isn't recognizing my card I think. . .
[04:44] <Chaotic_Descent> xtknight: correct.
[04:44] <BeepII> I'm stuck in low graphics mode
[04:44] <xtknight> Chaotic_Descent, even after "killall firefox; killall firefox-bin" (restarting firefox) and then running Firefox again and going to the url?
[04:44] <Fryguy--> BeepII: what card is it
[04:44] <Guest29846> xtknight: i tried that. maybe the sound stuff was not installed properly? how do i check that?
[04:44] <BeepII> S3 Graphics unichrome pro Integrated Graphics core
[04:45] <Chaotic_Descent> ubuntu-restricted-extras is the ONLY package installed that comes up when I search for Flash under Synaptic Package MAnager.
[04:45] <BeepII> I've gone through the entire list of drivers and none worked
[04:45] <Fryguy--> BeepII: oh snap, that's old. I have no idea if that's supported, or even where to being to offer you advice.  Sorry.  Check google I guess :(
[04:45] <xtknight> Guest29846, type gnome-volume-control in the terminal
[04:45] <Chaotic_Descent> xtknight: no process killed. (because I closed it and restarted Firefox)
[04:45] <BeepII> lol.  Yeah, I reformatted a windows machine
[04:45] <Vic> does anyone know if the TV Tuner Kworld ATSC 12 is supported in Ubuntu 7.10?
[04:46] <xtknight> Vic, try to find the chipset of the card
[04:46] <BeepII> do you know what I might be looking for?
[04:46] <Vic> *120
[04:46] <Fryguy--> BeepII: probably something like "ubuntu s3 graphics card"
[04:46] <Vic> i think the tv tuner is by Connexant
[04:46] <BeepII> Ok, I'll try that.
[04:46] <BeepII> thanks
[04:46] <xtknight> Vic, or look at the biggest chip on the board and see what the name is...(or, potentially, any of the chips)
[04:46] <xtknight> hmm
[04:46] <iamalsotim> does the 64 bit hardy installer cd support installing to windows dynamic disks?
[04:47] <xtknight> Chaotic_Descent, "sudo update-mime-database"?  sorry dude im grasping for straws here.
[04:47] <xtknight> Chaotic_Descent, you might ask in #firefox
[04:47] <xtknight> or the one on irc.mozilla.org
[04:47] <Guest29846> xtknight: Except for line-in and microphone, everything else is high
[04:47] <xtknight> Guest29846, is there anything under the Switches tab
[04:47] <Vic>  Conexant CX23880 to be precise for the tv tuner
[04:48] <xtknight> iamalsotim, i don't believe ubuntu supports GPT partition tables, but that would be what you'd be looking for.
[04:48] <xtknight> a keyword at least
[04:48] <xtknight> im not really sure
[04:48] <Guest29846> xtknight: THere's no switches tab
[04:48] <Fryguy--> Vic: check these out: http://www.google.com/search?q=ubuntu+Conexant+CX23880+&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a
[04:48] <xtknight> iamalsotim, it would not if you were doing any sort of raid or redundancy on them
[04:48] <xtknight> thats the chip my card uses isnt it
[04:48] <xtknight> hmm
[04:48] <arooni-mobile> is there a program that's different than unison for keeping my /home/ folder in sync between laptop & desktop......   ?  unison seems not be working properly.
[04:48] <xtknight> Guest29846, enable everything when you go to edit preferences
[04:49] <Fryguy--> arooni-mobile: rsync, rdiff-backup work
[04:49] <xtknight> Vic, my cx23885 works
[04:50] <Vic> mines is CX23880
[04:50] <arooni-mobile> Fryguy--, whats better?
[04:50] <mattjackets> Fryguy: hmm....well, it looks like i can't read /dev/sda2 using the bootloader on the live cd.  guess I'll just reinstall grub (the IT guys are going love seeing that in the morning when they go to fix the windows install)  Thanks for your help
[04:50] <Fryguy--> arooni-mobile: try both and see which suits your needs better.  there's plenty of documentation on both
[04:50] <Fryguy--> !best | arooni-mobile
[04:50] <Guest29846> xtknight: Done all that. BUt how do i check if the sound packages i installed is right or wrong?
[04:50] <Chaotic_Descent> Usage: update-mime-database [-hvV] MIME-DIR
[04:50] <xtknight> Vic, i believe cx8800 supplies your model.  research it
[04:50] <arooni-mobile> Fryguy--, can i ask you which you prefer?
[04:51] <Fryguy--> arooni-mobile: i use both for different needs
[04:51] <Mrevox11> Hello everyone.
[04:51] <Fryguy--> arooni-mobile: i'm pretty sure that ubottu factoid was pretty clear....
[04:51] <xtknight> Chaotic_Descent, sorry then, my well's dry for tihs problem.  youre going to have to consult #firefox with your problem or ask here at another time
[04:51] <Mrevox11> Can someone Help me with some NDisWrapper problems?
[04:51] <Fryguy--> !anyone | Mrevox11
[04:51] <xtknight> i have no more suggestions
[04:52] <Shoopuf> Fryguy--: Thanks for the help... The icons worked. Can't believe how easy it is to change so many icons with just a few clicks and drags.
[04:52] <xtknight> Guest29846, ubuntu does tihs for you
[04:52] <arooni-mobile> Fryguy--,  there is no best;   but there is usually a favorite.... and thats what i was trying on establishing.  i dont want to use the less popular one (as it statistically won't be better for me)
[04:52] <Mrevox11> Well I have installed Ubuntu 8.04 and I installed Ndisgtk or something like that. And I have installed the driver and it lists my hardware as present in ndiswrapper. But I dont know how to activate it. Can someone help?
[04:52] <xtknight> Guest29846, there aren't really any sound things to install.  but have you tried all Mixer devices in  sound preferences?  i dont know if that will fix it
[04:52] <Fryguy--> arooni-mobile: the point is exactly the same.
[04:53] <Fryguy--> arooni-mobile: if you want to use the more popular one, go use windows... (see the logic there? and how it fails?)
[04:53] <Shoopuf> Guest29846: Not that this helps, but I've been unable to get Ubuntu to work with my onboard sound for a while... So I'm gonna go and grab a $20 Sound Blaster, I heard Creative is highly supported.
[04:53] <xtknight> Vic, see http://hardware4linux.info/component/14786/
[04:53] <xtknight> or http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=CX23880+ubuntu&btnG=Search
[04:54] <bobertdos> ﻿Mrevox11: Go into System->Administration->Network and see if you have a wireless device listed there.
[04:54] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: what is the device? a wireless card?
[04:54] <Mrevox11> yes. it is a RealTek 8187b
[04:54] <Rat409> Mrevox11: modprobe -i ndiswrapper?
[04:54] <Fryguy--> Shoopuf: i'd argue onboard sound is much better supported
[04:54] <Fryguy--> !realtek | Mrevox11
[04:54] <Mrevox11> bobertdos. Everything is greyed out.
[04:54] <xtknight> Shoopuf, dont get an x-fi
[04:54] <Vic> the problem with my tuner is that it doesnt seems to be recognized by programs like MythTV
[04:54] <xtknight> an audigy, or a turtle beach montego ddl is what i recommend
[04:54] <Mrevox11> But in Ndisgtk or something it tells me that its detected
[04:55] <xtknight> Vic, please pastebin the output of "dmesg" and "sudo lshw".  additionally, "ls -R /dev/dvb"
[04:55] <bobertdos> ﻿Mrevox11: Everything SHOULD be greyed out, but is there a wireless device listed there?
[04:55] <l815> anyone know where I could get the KDE4.1 mouse theme for ubuntu?
[04:56] <Fryguy--> l815: kde-look.org probably has it
[04:56] <l815> Fryguy--,  kk thanks
[04:56] <emmet_> is there a linux distro specifically for apple hardware?
[04:56] <Fryguy--> emmet_: yellowdog linux i think
[04:56] <Fryguy--> emmet_: go ask in #linux or something, this is an ubuntu-specific channel
[04:57] <hi_> xtknight: I use a Lenovo power rangers desktop, more info can be found here : ttp://www.shinyshiny.tv/2007/08/lenovo_power_ra.html
[04:57] <yaris12346789> hello, i am missing MAKE. it says bash not found.
[04:57] <yaris12346789> what to do ?
[04:57] <Fryguy--> yaris12346789: install build-essential
[04:58] <Leefmc> Grr, i installed Wine and now i got references to it all over the place even after uninstalling. Any thoughts on where to remove it fully? (Note i already marked it "for complete removal"
[04:58] <Leefmc> marked and applied, obviously
[04:58] <Fryguy--> Leefmc: use --purge to uninstall it and all of it's associated configuration files
[04:58] <Leefmc> Fryguy--: Can i still purge it? Even though its already uninstalled? Or should i reinstall
[04:58] <hi_> xtknight: ?
[04:59] <Fryguy--> Leefmc: probably easiest to just reinstall it and the purge it
[04:59] <Leefmc> k
[04:59] <Mardos> can anyone help me ?
[04:59] <Fryguy--> !anyone | Mardos
[05:00] <Mardos> everytime i do iwpriv i keep getting NO PRIVATE IOCTLS
[05:00] <xtknight> Mardos, did you try putting sudo before the command
[05:00] <Mardos> yes i have
[05:00] <xtknight> what are you trying to do overall?
[05:00] <victor__> hey xtknight, what did u want me to post the output of for the tv tuner?
[05:00] <Mardos> im trying to change the system id and device id of my dell card
[05:00] <xtknight> Vic, please pastebin the output of "dmesg" and "sudo lshw".  additionally, "ls -R /dev/dvb"
[05:00] <xtknight> victor__, ^
[05:00] <Fryguy--> Mardos: try configuring your card with iwconfig first
[05:00] <Mrevox11> Ok.
[05:00] <Mrevox11> None of that is working for me
[05:01] <Mardos> my card installs scans and conencts to netowkrs
[05:01] <Fryguy--> !work | Mrevox11
[05:01] <xtknight> hi_, sorry, i really dont know how to fix your problem
[05:01] <victor__> it tells me that "[   58.011207] cx88[0]: Your board isn't known (yet) to the driver.  You can

[05:01] <FloodBot1> victor__: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:01] <xtknight> Mardos, what is the command line you are running
[05:01] <xtknight> victor__, sorry but please use pastebin for anything larger
[05:01] <Mardos> Fryguy the command im doing is this sudo iwpriv wlan0 read_sprom > card_sprom
[05:01] <hi_> xtknight: hey, the last time i installed ubuntu feisty, i had a same problem and got it fixed
[05:02] <Mrevox11> well I went to the link provided. And the card still doesnt work.
[05:02] <Fryguy--> Mardos: right, use iwconfig to configure your card first
[05:02] <Mardos> and i get wlan0 no private ioctls
[05:02] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: "doesn't work" doesn't mean anything to us
[05:02] <victor__> it recognizes my chipset, but doesnt know which card is the right one
[05:02] <xtknight> victor__, ok.
[05:02] <xtknight> victor__, that means you need to add card= to a file in /etc/modprobe.d/   that refers to cx88
[05:02] <victor__> " Your board isn't known (yet) to the driver." it says
[05:02] <Mardos> Fryguy so instead of iwpriv put iwconfig?
[05:03] <Fryguy--> Mardos: no
[05:03] <hi_> xtknight: all i remember s the person onlie telling me add something in some intel sound properties throught command line
[05:03] <Fryguy--> Mardos: maybe, i don't know
[05:03] <Mrevox11> im sorry. I went to the link provided. Ndiswrappergtk still shows my hardware as present. But the card is not active.
[05:03] <giskard2> hello everyone
[05:03] <Mardos> Fryguy im new to linux :(
[05:03] <xtknight> hi_, i really have no idea.
[05:03] <xtknight> hi_, i'm sorry
[05:03] <giskard2> i need help configuring midi in ubuntu
[05:03] <Fryguy--> Mardos: ok
[05:03] <Fryguy--> !ask | giskard2
[05:03] <Mardos> im just trying to get my dell network card to work on my hp because hp has a whitelist on the bios
[05:03] <xtknight> hi_, it could be an extra flag to modprobe snd-hda-intel
[05:04] <Mardos> Fryguy this is waht im trying to do http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=75242
[05:04] <xtknight> hi_, which *might* be in here http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Module-hda-intel
[05:04] <xtknight> hi_, or you might need to recompile alsa.
[05:04] <Fryguy--> Mardos: and what does this have to do with ubuntu itself?
[05:04] <hi_> xtknight: ny idea how do i do that?
[05:04] <Mardos> its linux and i was using ubuntu and thats the error i was getting when i just type in sudo iwpriv i get no no private ioctls
[05:05] <Fryguy--> Mardos: the error has nothing to do with ubuntu
[05:05] <giskard2> i have a korg triton extreme, ubuntu hardy heron, i see the triton when i do "cat /dev/sndstat", it connects via usb, i don't know how to configure alsa to transmit midi to the triton
[05:05] <Mardos> Fryguy
[05:05] <Fryguy--> Mardos:
[05:05] <Mardos> what do you think it can be
[05:05] <Fryguy--> Mardos: i have no idea
[05:05] <Fryguy--> Mardos: as i've already said
[05:05] <xtknight> victor__, look here try the card= for the kworld cards http://64.233.167.104/search?q=cache:ru-3z-Wlkp4J:https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/%2Bsource/linux/%2Bbug/115719+cx88+kworld&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=3&gl=us
[05:05] <Mardos> Fryguy iwconfig how can i set up the wlan0?
[05:05] <xtknight> !alsa | hi_, might be something here
[05:06] <Fryguy--> Mardos: i don't know
[05:06] <xtknight> Mardos, what told you to do iwpriv
[05:06] <ubunubi> anyway to keep my system logs from spamming about me having disabled the IPv6 kernel module?
[05:06] <Mardos> http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=75242 hat
[05:06] <Mardos> that*
[05:07] <xtknight> Mardos, that's for mac os, i think
[05:07] <victor__> hey xtknight, the Kworld ATSC 120 is not on the list of cards to choose from
[05:07] <Mardos> yes because my HP/COMPAQ blocks other network cards it has to be a intel one
[05:07] <will02> what would be the easiest way to mount a folder on an ftp drive locally?
[05:07] <Fryguy--> ubunubi: you can reinstall the kernel and put ipv6 module in if you want
[05:07] <Mardos> im trying to use a dell 1390 with a broadcom
[05:07] <Chaotic_Descent> Bah. #firefox is being useless.
[05:07] <Mrevox11> anyone?
[05:07] <Fryguy--> will02: use ftp://blahblahblah in nautilus
[05:07] <xtknight> victor__, your best bet is to find the card= from someone else (search ubuntu forums for kworld atsc), or try all the kworld ones using sudo rmmod cx88 && sudo modprobe cx88 card=nnn (nnn is the number)
[05:08] <ubunubi> Fryguy--: i dont want ipv6...that's why i disabled it. but i dont want modprobe to spam my logs telling me i've disabled it..cause i know that I have :P
[05:08] <will02> fryguy-- i know that works, but i want to mount it locally so amarok can use it as a building point for its collection
[05:08] <xtknight> !ipv6 | ubunubi
[05:08] <Fryguy--> ubunubi: 1. why disable it 2. in that case, blacklist the module so it doesn't load
[05:08] <xtknight> that help?
[05:08] <Mardos> xtnight any ideas why
[05:08] <ahughes> hey, is it possible to VNC or rdesktop or something into another machine (windows) and scale down... so that a remote 1024x768 screen appears as 512x384?
[05:08] <ubunubi> fryguy: 1. for speed 2. it is blacklisted but i'm getting spammed that it's blacklisted...hence the problem
[05:08] <Fryguy--> will02: i'm not aware of any utilities for putting the contents of an ftp server as a mountpoint
[05:08] <xtknight> Mardos, so let me get this straight, you are trying to get a wirelesss card to work?
[05:09] <xtknight> Mardos, if so can you please pastebin "sudo lshw"
[05:09] <Enselic> I would like to learn in detail how the NetworkManager interacts with the boot process, does anyone have a couple of good links where I can read more?
[05:09] <Fryguy--> ubunubi: removing ipv6 isn't going to speed anything up
[05:09] <q_a_z_steve> help, can I insert .ogg video into OOo 2.4 linux? I had this working once, doesn't play nice anymore.
[05:09] <Mardos> on my COMPAq because hp and compaq has a whitelist on there bios
[05:09] <ubunubi> Fryguy--: sure it does. that's why the !ipv6 clippet recommends it to speed up browsing
[05:09] <Mardos> they wont allow other network cards
[05:09] <xtknight> Mardos, a whitelist for what?
[05:09] <ubunubi> Fryguy--: but that's besides the point
[05:09] <xtknight> hmmmmm
[05:09] <ignacio> HI
[05:09] <ubunubi> Fryguy--: i dont get spammed about any other blacklisted module
[05:10] <ignacio> men
[05:10] <Chaotic_Descent> I hate computers so much.
[05:10] <marvin> hmm your on one
[05:10] <ignacio> I love the computers
[05:10] <xtknight> Mardos, so did you do the steps prior to iwpriv..like extracting bcm
[05:10] <Chaotic_Descent> I know I'm on one.
[05:10] <doug_> test
[05:11] <Mrevox11> Does anyone know how to activate a connection that is listed as present in Ndiswrapper?
[05:11] <Mardos> xtknight i have a compaq with a intel 3945 i swapped it with a dell 1390 broadcom 43xx but my machine when i boot it up i get a error 104 unsupported network adapater compaq blocks other network cards in there bios and the only way to bypass it is to do the link i have sent you
[05:11] <Mardos> and yes i have done the extracing it finds and scans and connects to wireless networks
[05:11] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: do you have an interface for it in ifconfig or iwconfig
[05:11] <giskard2> i need help connecting a usb/midi keyboard to ubuntu
[05:11] <xtknight> Mardos, do type ifconfig -a and see if you can identify the interface
[05:11] <Chaotic_Descent> they're evil. they're like cigarettes for the socially inept. and they're god damned infuriating.
[05:11] <Mardos> wlan0
[05:11] <Mrevox11> I just have lo and eth0
[05:12] <ahughes> I think I want to screencast
[05:12] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: then your driver isn't installed correctly
[05:12] <Mrevox11> I dont have a wlan0 entry.
[05:12] <Mrevox11> ? It lists it as present in Ndiswrapper.
[05:12] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: did you look at the documentation i posted a while ago?
[05:12] <Fryguy--> !realtek | Mrevox11
[05:12] <Mrevox11> that doesnt help.
[05:12] <Mrevox11> I enter the commands listed and I just get a bunch of errors.
[05:12] <xtknight> Mardos, unfortunately my wireless card also says no private io ctls
[05:13] <Mardos> so basically i cant change the private parameters
[05:13] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: "bunch of errors"
[05:13] <xtknight> Mardos, i dont know.  you may need an iwpriv version of else where
[05:13] <Mrevox11> Yes.
[05:13] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: that sounds like it might be pretty important
[05:13] <xtknight> Mardos, or maybe the driver you're using is not implementing iwpriv
[05:13] <Mrevox11> Why is sarcasm rampant around here?
[05:13] <Mardos> xtknight what do you mean there is different versions of iwpriv ?
[05:13] <xtknight> i guess because terseness is :D
[05:14] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: because i've been asking you for quite some time to elaborate on "doesn't work" and you refuse to comply. you just say "looks like it's there but it doesn't work"
[05:14] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: we need some specifics to be able to offer you meaningful advice
[05:14] <emmet_> wow is this #ubuntu? it got really unpleasant for a second
[05:14] <Mardos> xtknight i tried sudo iwpriv and i get wlan0 no private ioctls and even my eth1 no private ioctls
[05:14] <Mrevox11> If you read the above. I have told you what is wrong.
[05:14] <xtknight> Mardos, there could be.  i am not sure.  that guide is for mac os, but you may try to find the project page for iwpriv and get a new version, or try upgrading the driver which supports your network card
[05:14] <marvin> Mardos I have the same chipset as your network card
[05:14] <marvin> are you using a laptop?
[05:14] <xtknight> Mardos, i have no ioctls for any of my interfaces, either
[05:14]  * emmet_ *
[05:15] <xtknight> which is why im doutbing the version of that program included with ubuntu
[05:15] <Mardos> xtknight hmm wierdd
[05:15] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: all you've told us is "it looks like it's in ndiswrapper, but i don't have an interface, and i get a bunch of errors that i won't tell you about when i try to follow the documentation i've been linked to"
[05:15] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: that's paraphrased obviously, but you get the point
[05:15] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: if I missed something, please let me know
[05:15] <Mrevox11> Its a fresh Ubuntu 8.04 install. I installed Ndiswrapper. I installed the realtek driver that I downloaded from the website. It lists the hardware as present in ndiswrapper.
[05:15] <marvin> Mardos:my chipset works fine, can you restate your problem?
[05:16] <Mrevox11> now I just want to know how to activate the hardware and connection. Any Help?
[05:16] <Enselic> ahughes: I recomend recordMyDesktop for that
[05:16] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: right, and what happens when you follow the documentation i linked you to
[05:16] <Mrevox11> hold on let me copy and paste.
[05:16] <Fryguy--> !pastebin | Mrevox11
[05:16] <Enselic> Mrevox11: doesn't realtek provide Linux drivers?
[05:16] <Fryguy--> Enselic: usually not
[05:16] <Mardos> marvin my compaq comes with a intel 1945 abg if i swap my network card i get error 104 unsupported network card because hp blocks it in their bios
[05:17] <marvin> Oh, I see, so it's a hardware prob.
[05:17] <Fryguy--> Mardos: why not just use the intel? it has better linux support anyway
[05:17] <marvin> Fryguy: both work, broadcom is wirless g
[05:17] <arooni-mobile> how do i regenerate my public / private keys?
[05:17] <ubunubi> Fryguy--: the modprobe log spam is a know launchpad issue. just for your future reference https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/module-init-tools/+bug/66423
[05:17] <Chaotic_Descent> fixed Flash playback. something changed the settings to load Flash files in FireFox. there was a FireFox setting under "applications" that let me select Flash in FireFox for playback. :P

[05:17] <Enselic> arooni-mobile: Use ssh-keygen
[05:17] <l815> anyone know why I get this error, even though gtk.2x is installed? "configure: error: GTK+-2.10 is required to compile aurora"
[05:18] <marvin> Mardos- oh wait, are yuo trying to istall broadcom?
[05:18] <xtknight> l815, you need to install gtk development libraries
[05:18] <marvin> Mardos- If that is the case, you need the right firmware
[05:18] <Starnestommy> l815: you need libgtk2.0-dev
[05:18] <Mardos> yaa ubuntu finds it the drivers and installs fwcutter and everything on its own
[05:18] <marvin> Mardos: If it's not truly your bios
[05:18] <marvin> Mardos: I have a link for you;)
[05:18] <xtknight> i wonder why they would block other wireless cards
[05:18] <xtknight> what's the point of that?
[05:18] <Mardos> and it even installs and scans and connects
[05:18] <l815> xtknight, Starnestommy , thanks :)
[05:18] <Mardos> yaa hp and compaq are gay
[05:19] <masterclimby> hey!
[05:19] <masterclimby> i have both lol
[05:19] <arooni-mobile> Enselic, to allow me to ssh in with key based auth.... i copy the public key of the remote computer into the authorized_keys file of the computer i want to log into?
[05:19] <xtknight> lol
[05:19] <Mardos> no point whats the poin tof blocking it
[05:19] <Mrevox11> fryguy   http://paste.ubuntu.com/25582/
[05:19] <Fryguy--> arooni-mobile: yes
[05:19] <l815> Starnestommy, worked perfectly ;D
[05:19] <Enselic> arooni-mobile: yes
[05:19] <arooni-mobile> thanks Fryguy-- & Enselic
[05:19] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: lol. did you download the file you needed?
[05:19] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: and if so, what is it called
[05:19] <marvin> Mardos:L so it scans and conencts? but you have unknown network device?
[05:20] <marvin> Is that it?
[05:20] <Mardos> it scans it connects to my netowrk and which ever network it shows the essid and evertthing
[05:20] <marvin> If it scans and connect, and it works, means your firmware is corect
[05:20] <marvin> haha thatz weird
[05:20] <Mardos> just when i do iwpriv everytime i get no private ioctls for everything
[05:21] <xtknight> Mardos, have you tried associating with an AP though?
[05:21] <Mardos> the only way to make the broadcom bcm43xx to work on my hp is to change the system id and device id to the intel one to fake it
[05:21] <marvin> hmm mine works
[05:21] <marvin> :D
[05:21] <Mardos> so that my bios will think my bcm43xx is my intel
[05:21] <marvin> I see, so it is the bios issue
[05:21] <Mardos> marvin when you do iwpriv what do you get it ?
[05:21] <BeepII> Does anyone know what version of Ubuntu supported the S3 Graphics unichrome pro integrated graphics core?
[05:22] <marvin> eth1 Available private ioctls:
[05:22] <Mardos> yess bios will not let me boot into anything
[05:22] <marvin> it shows
[05:22] <Mardos> dan it :(
[05:22] <marvin> ndis_reset powwer_profile
[05:22] <marvin> shows a lot of stuff
[05:22] <marvin> :D
[05:22] <BeepII> or like, how old that thing really is so I can look it up?
[05:22] <codyt07> Hello, can anyone help me with ubuntu studio 64 bit? Their irc channel has no one in it.
[05:22] <xtknight> Mardos, are you SURE the interface is wlan0?
[05:22] <Fryguy--> !anyone | codyt07
[05:22] <Mardos> yes
[05:22] <xtknight> Mardos, try sudo iwpriv --all to humor me
[05:23] <Mardos> even went to network toosl
[05:23] <marvin> Mardo: you are lucky :D
[05:23] <Matthew12> you know how when you mouse over a music file it will play for as long as the mouse is over the icon...well I went to delete a music file...it started playing I deleted the file, and it won't stop playing even though the file has been deleted
[05:23] <Mardos> lucky for what lol
[05:23] <marvin> Mardos: that it actually works on your computer
[05:23] <Mardos> im unlucky because i cant get the bcm43xx to work
[05:23] <marvin> the card i mean
[05:23] <marvin> well internet works right?
[05:23] <Mardos> well i have to hot swap it after the bios check before ubuntu loads
[05:23] <orgthingy> I used "FrontCam" in Windows.. what should I use in Linux?
[05:23] <codyt07> Fair enough, I am having trouble with constant full system lockups, mainly running flash, cross/wine, and firefox. I have had ubuntu regular 2 bit to run successful before.
[05:23] <insmod> is there a reason licq has stopped working ???
[05:24] <codyt07> 32 bit
[05:24] <marvin> hmm well anyways I'll give you some links that may or may not help
[05:24] <Fryguy--> insmod: icq changed their protocol and broke every 3rd party client
[05:24] <Mardos> i just need to change the paramters of the wlan card so my bios will thing that its still a intel one inside

nice 9 (i figured such) any solution??
[05:25] <marvin> three links for ya
[05:25] <xtknight> Mardos, what does sudo iwpriv --all show
[05:25] <marvin> for the last one, the network card is what you want
[05:25] <Fryguy--> insmod: pidgin has fixed it's implementation, check getdeb.net to see if packages have been updated for you and not in repositories, or just wait
[05:25] <Mardos> no private ioctls
[05:25] <codyt07> I do have a few error messages that do repart, module-alsa-sinl c: Error opening PCM device front 0: Device or resource is busy

[05:26] <THC> oh and hello all
[05:26] <Matthew12> the mouse-over music preview won't stop playing after I deleted the file. How do I stop this?
[05:26] <pugakier> hi!!!!!!!!!!!
[05:27] <THC> hi
[05:27] <Fryguy--> THC: try #virtualbox, or the virtualbox website has a wiki that has a lot of documented howtos, maybe they have information there
[05:27] <Aaron__> what program do i used so i can connect via wireless?
[05:27] <arooni-mobile> the same command in crontab -e (for current user named chasetoys): * * * * * /usr/bin/unison simple -batch >> /home/chasetoys/unison.log 2>&1 outputs Permission denied (publickey,password).... but when i run it from the command line (outside of crontab) it runs fine.... why?
[05:27] <Mardos> marvin one says on how to install but truly ubuntu does it on its own it installs everything on its own
[05:27] <marvin> depends
[05:27] <THC> yeah, im just being lazy haha
[05:27] <Fryguy--> Aaron__: the network-manager in the top right corner handles both wired and wireless connections for you
[05:27] <marvin> I did an upgrade from gutsy to hardware and it messed up my network firmware
[05:27] <Mardos> it does though for me it idd
[05:27] <marvin> I had to do a reinstall on that, fwcutter is a bit, bleh
[05:28] <THC> but i was looking at the channel list in freenode and didnt see theirs
[05:28] <djhash> Hi all.. I need someone's help regarding s-video TV-out on ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy), using ATI Radeon Mobility M7 LW (7500).. check xorg.conf on pastebin http://pastebin.com/m6a87ef14
[05:28] <Aaron__> Fryguy--, i dont see anything
[05:28] <Fryguy--> Aaron__: does ifconfig or iwconfig show a wireless interface (type these commands in terminal)
[05:29] <marvin> Mardos: what eth port is your internet connection?
[05:29] <marvin> eth1? eth0?
[05:29] <Mardos> i think eth1
[05:29] <Fryguy--> Aaron__: you need to manually install drivers for your wireless card then
[05:29] <Aaron__> Fryguy--, i already did,.
[05:29] <xtknight> Mardos, are you sure it is not wmaster0
[05:30] <Billll> meh I have a netgear wpn311 D;
[05:30] <Mardos> nop im positive i have eth and wlan
[05:30] <Fryguy--> Aaron__: no you didn't.  If you did then you would have an interface in ifconfig and/or iwconfig
[05:30] <Billll> heard those are a bitch to installed D;
[05:30] <marvin> it is a bitch to install, but once you do, you're home free
[05:30] <Billll> gonig to install tommorrow I have card in wireless slot but called it a night
[05:30] <Billll> =P
[05:30] <xtknight> Mardos, http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=bcm43xx+iwpriv&btnG=Search     this may be your best hope, but i see things like iwpriv wlan0 param or iwpriv wmaster0
[05:32] <Mardos> waht is the best way to cahgne the private parameters of the card(like system id and device id ) ?
[05:33] <xtknight> Mardos, i wonder if you can flash the bios to fix it
[05:33] <Mardos> done that
[05:33] <Mardos> to the latest and still nothing
[05:33] <arooni-mobile> is there a way to quickly clear a file (though not delete it) from the command line?  (i want to use this for log files i want to start over)
[05:33] <Mardos> and its a insyde flash so no way to edit it as well
[05:35] <Mardos> just need a command to change the system id and device ide
[05:35] <icarus> if I have a server with an NFS share, is there any way, like a password, to stop someone from jumping on the network, asking DHCP for a static IP that matches one if /etc/exports  on the server and then just impersonating a real user ?
[05:36] <Fryguy--> icarus: no
[05:36] <nafiux> Hello, I need the kernel source in /usr/src of Ubuntu, can I download this?
[05:36] <icarus> Fryguy--: wow....not awesome :P
[05:36] <Fryguy--> there's a secureNFS version i think, but it's completely standalone and i know nothing about it
[05:36] <Fryguy--> nafiux: install the kernel source package
[05:36] <mordof> got an ssh server installed.. trying to log into it from my windows machine (that works fine) except there's about a 20s delay before it asks for the password.. i tried to set up authentication keys with a passphrase instead and disable password, but same result.. anyone know of a way to get rid of the delay? they're on the same network.. not sure why it'd take so long
[05:37] <Fryguy--> icarus: it's widely known that nfs is not secure for anything other than lan use
[05:37] <icarus> Fryguy--: it almost seems like Samba is more secure
[05:37] <djhash> arooni-mobile: try "echo >file"
[05:37] <Mardos> so im shit out of luck
[05:37] <nafiux> Fryguy: What is the name of the package?
[05:37] <Fryguy--> mordof: do you have your hostname configured correctly, and an appropriate entry in /etc/hosts for it
[05:37] <icarus> Fryguy--: anything a little more secure ?
[05:37] <Fryguy--> icarus: sftp
[05:37] <Fryguy--> nafiux: no idea, use apt-cache search to find it
[05:38] <Mardos> marvin
[05:38] <icarus> Fryguy--: SecureFTP? that doesn't sound very mountable
[05:38] <Fryguy--> icarus: sshfs
[05:38] <mordof> Fryguy--: was using straight IP address, as well as i set my host file up properly for the name i'm using.  however, that's only client side. not sure what you mean for server side - what's the host file do with it?
[05:38] <djhash> Hi all.. I need someone's help regarding s-video TV-out on ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy), using ATI Radeon Mobility M7 LW (7500).. check xorg.conf on pastebin http://pastebin.com/m6a87ef14 <---- someone to work on during pm would be helpful.. thanks..
[05:38] <Fryguy--> mordof: if your hostname isn't set up correctly, resolves (and reverse dns), take forever
[05:39] <mordof> Fryguy--: why would that matter through local IP addresses?
[05:39] <Fryguy--> mordof: because ssh does reverse dns
[05:39] <flaccid> what is the apt command to find out what package a file came with?
[05:39] <mordof> .... all the time?
[05:40] <Fryguy--> mordof: yes
[05:40] <Fryguy--> mordof: why not just try the solution I gave?
[05:40] <mordof> not sure how xD
[05:40] <Fryguy--> mordof: /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts
[05:40] <mordof> what do i put though? :s
[05:40] <icarus> Fryguy--: awesome! sshfs looks like NFS but more secure ! thanks
[05:40] <Fryguy--> mordof: whatever you want
[05:41] <Fryguy--> icarus: it's just a filesystem wrapper for sftp using fuse
[05:42] <s3a> how do u get to the non answered posts area?
[05:42] <s3a> in ubuntuforums
[05:42] <icarus> Fryguy--: well, that's cool then, because being mountable is pretty important in my scenario
[05:42] <Josdell> Hi everyone, I need help. I am trying to make a USB Stick bootable without GRUB so that the MBR of the computer does not look for GRUB on the next boot. Is this possible with GRUB itself, or even another bootloader, I just need something that will boot the first partition of a USB Stick. Please know the bootloader must be installed on the USB Stick.
[05:43] <mordof> Fryguy--: do i have to restart anything after writing to the host file?
[05:43] <mordof> :o guess not
[05:43] <flaccid> right no help as usual
[05:43] <flaccid> cyas
[05:43] <mordof> lol... *sighs* i really don't understand why that worked, but it did. ty Fryguy

[05:44] <nafiux> I'm learning to develop drivers for Linux, but when I can make this (make -C /usr/src/kernel-source-2.6.8 M=pwd modules) this return error, I find the "kernel-source-2.6.8" in the /usr/src folder not found
[05:44] <yesitisjustme> when you install through synaptic it also automatically installs any dependancy but when i do apt-get it doesn't automatically is there a command so it will install any dependancy automatically like synaptic?
[05:45] <Fryguy--> nafiux: so install a kernel-source package, use apt-cache search to find the one you need, just like i already said
[05:45] <nickrud> yesitisjustme apt-get installs dependencies also, what in particular didn't you get?
[05:45] <Fryguy--> yesitisjustme: any apt command is going to install dependencies automatically
[05:45] <Fryguy--> yesitisjustme: if you are talking about recommends, use aptitiude
[05:45] <yesitisjustme> ok
[05:46] <leprasmurf> hey all.  I'm trying to get wireless working on my asus eee using xubuntu (eeexubuntu).  dhclient is failing but iwlist shows my essid.  any advice?
[05:46] <Mayank> after installing bluz my bluetooth is not working
[05:47] <yesitisjustme> cause it says like it needs this somethign but is not going to be installed those kind of dependencies but synaptic did it automatic
[05:47] <yesitisjustme> never tried aptitude though
[05:47] <Mayank> ﻿hcitool says .. there is no bluetooth device.
[05:47] <nickrud> yesitisjustme that means you have a problem in your sources.list, synaptic would have a similar error
[05:47] <yesitisjustme> oh
[05:47] <djhash> where does the xorg log file reside?! or what is the command to find a file?!
[05:47] <nickrud> yesitisjustme using hardy gnome (ubuntu?)
[05:47] <Fryguy--> djhash: /var/log/Xorg.log
[05:48] <Jester45> can qemu be made to use more than one core? i have 4 so just 1 is quite slow compared to what it could be
[05:48] <yesitisjustme> no is like a lite version of ubuntu
[05:48] <nickrud> djhash try locate <filename> to find files
[05:48] <IndyGunFreak> djhash: to open xorg... gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:49] <teacher> novia
[05:49] <nickrud> yesitisjustme then you'll need to find out what the sources.list would be for that version
[05:49] <Fryguy--> Jester45: it can, take a look at the command line options for it.  I would recommend using one of the more popular virtualization platforms though, they are typically much better than qemu
[05:49] <yesitisjustme> based on gusty
[05:49] <yesitisjustme> ok
[05:49] <Josdell> Hi everyone, If I make a partition with a boot flag on GParted, the Partition will boot, correct? It doesn't need GRUB or anything?

[05:49] <IndyGunFreak> djhash: youd idn't ask that
[05:49] <Mayank> my ubuntu is not recognizing hardware

[05:49] <Mayank> what to do ....
[05:50] <Mayank> and hciscan tool doesn't work
[05:50] <Fryguy--> IndyGunFreak: actually he did
[05:50] <Fryguy--> djhash: see my message above
[05:50] <Paddy_EIRE> Josdell, ofcourse it needs a bootloader it aint magic :P
[05:50] <IndyGunFreak> eh, its already scrolled past, if he did, i apologize

[05:51] <Paddy_EIRE> Josdell, then let the rest of the world know when you figure out how to boot an OS like that without a bootloader.. you'll be famous I'm sure
[05:51] <nickrud> Josdell one of those is about setting up a usb bootable device
[05:51] <Fryguy--> Jester45: ok, like i said i'm pretty sure there's a command line option to dedicate more cores.  check out qemu's wiki
[05:51] <Josdell> nickrud: syslinux is not reccomended for partiton larger that 2GB
[05:51] <Paddy_EIRE> nickrud, yeah there is a gui app now available for those wishing to install ubuntu to a usb device
[05:52] <Mayank> xorg --configure
[05:52] <Mayank> try this
[05:52] <djhash> nickrud: thanks.. it seems there is no such file.. (tried xorg.log, xorg.0.log)...
[05:52] <Mayank> to configure your xorg
[05:52] <Mayank> then startx
[05:52] <nickrud> Josdell you didn't mention that part. Are you sure that's still true? And Paddy_EIRE what is that, I've been too lazy to try it myself by hand, I'll jump at that option
[05:52] <anom01y> anyone here know anything about setting up alsa ?
[05:52] <Fryguy--> djhash: just cd /var/log/ and type ls, the file you need should be obvious
[05:52] <Mayank> what is alsa
[05:52] <nickrud> djhash /var/log/Xorg.0.log is created each time an X session is started ...
[05:53] <Fryguy--> Mayank: advanced linux sound architecture, it's the platform that linux uses for sound
[05:53] <Fryguy--> !alsa Mayank
[05:53] <buntunub> !alsa
[05:53] <Fryguy--> !alsa| Mayank
[05:53] <Paddy_EIRE> nickrud, yeah its very handy I have ubuntu x86_64 running of a 4gb usb pen drive.. awesome
[05:53]  * nickrud is about to beat Paddy_EIRE about the head if he makes me google
[05:53] <ubunubi> Josdell: that's incorrect. the boot flag is just for windows to look at. you need need something to boot the machine (grub/ntloader/etc)
[05:53] <Paddy_EIRE> 1 sec
[05:53] <nickrud> Paddy_EIRE just kidding, the name of the app would be enough :)
[05:53] <Mayank> why do you need that
[05:53] <Mayank> what so special about that
[05:54] <Fryguy--> Mayank: it's how to play sound on linux based systems
[05:54] <Mayank> or you can tell me what is the problem you are facing
[05:54] <Josdell> ubunubi: Is it possible though with any bootloader, to not change the MBR of the computer?
[05:54] <djhash> oooh.. no wonder locate couldn't find it.. it is X not x.. lol.. thanks guys
[05:54] <ubunubi> josdell: what are you trying to accomplish?
[05:54] <Fryguy--> djhash: my original message said Xorg.log  -- pay attention next time lol :)
[05:54] <buntunub> !pulse audio
[05:55] <ubunubi> !pulseaudio
[05:55] <Josdell> ubunubi: Boot a partition off of a USB Drive without messing up the MBR of a Computer
[05:55] <ubunubi> josdell: for that, you need BIOS support to boot from a USB device, and set it as the first boot device in your BIOS
[05:55] <robert__> is there a Resident Evil original game for Linux
[05:56] <ubunubi> josdell: if you BIOS is not new enough to support booting from USB ...you're out of luck
[05:56] <Josdell> ubunubi: yes but if I installed Ubuntu on a USB Device with a bootloader(GRUB), are you saying it would still boot the Ubuntu partition?
[05:56] <AtomicSpark> my hardy install keeps freezing when trying to install python or perl. i forget which one. its right after you input the user information. i've tried disabling acpi apci lapci and apm. any ideas? its an old sony laptop. PCG-FR130
[05:56] <IndyGunFreak> Josdell: why are you concerned about putting grub on the mbr?.. just do a normal dual boot system, 1000's do it every day w/o issue..
[05:56] <methods> when i run sudo i get no output and the command does not execute from what i can see
[05:56] <Paddy_EIRE> nickrud, its called liveusb... not sure of the exactness but its out on other distros aswell you would need to find the ubuntu 1 there is a repo for it... I believe I got this info from the ubuntu wiki
[05:57] <ubunubi> josdell: GRUB could be installed to the USB drive itself, not your HD MBR
[05:57] <Fryguy--> AtomicSpark: how are you installing pythong
[05:57] <Josdell> Paddy_EIRE: are you talking about UNetbootin?
[05:57] <nickrud> Josdell you can have grub write to the mbr of the usbdrive (I'm assuming you mean a hard drive), if it's plugged in it will boot, if it's not the mbr on the internal will be used
[05:57] <nickrud> Paddy_EIRE thanks for the pointer.
[05:57] <AtomicSpark> Fryguy--, just the normal package installation with the alt cd.
[05:58] <Paddy_EIRE> Josdell, nope
[05:58] <Fryguy--> AtomicSpark: so you havne't installed ubuntu yet?
[05:58] <Josdell> ubunubi: Yes but doesn't the computer( if it doesn't have GRUB installed)  fail at boot if the USB Device is not inserted?
[05:58] <AtomicSpark> Fryguy--, no. tried every disabling boot option. :\
[05:58] <ubunubi> josdell: no, not if your BIOS supports booting from USB
[05:58] <jc__> can someone please take a look at http://paste.ubuntu.com/25593/ my bother can't get his monitor past 800x600
[05:58] <AtomicSpark> its just where it stops.
[05:58] <nickrud> Josdell not if you have grub on the mbr of the _external_ drive
[05:58] <buntunub> #join mythtv
[05:59] <Fryguy--> AtomicSpark: have you verified the disc is good? and md5'd the downloaded iso?
[05:59] <BeepII> Ok, I found what I believe to be the correct driver for my video card. (which is so old it doesn't seem to be supported in ubuntu 8.04) BUT, it's a binary for 7.10
[05:59] <BeepII> I'd like to know, is that going to be compatible with 8.04?
[05:59] <ubunubi> josdell:: the USB drive will be looked at by the BIOS, and the BIOS will look for the MBR of the USB device, read grub from there, then boot whatever that grub tells it off the usb disk, leaving your main MBR untouched
[05:59] <nickrud> Josdell thereby not touching the mbr of the _internal_ drive
[05:59] <Fryguy--> BeepII: probably
[05:59] <AtomicSpark> Fryguy--, yes. i have also successfully installed with this cd on newer machines.
[05:59] <Josdell> When I install Ubuntu onto a USB Device with GRUB, does it make a MBR of the USB Device automatically?
[05:59] <Paddy_EIRE> Josdell, seems interesting...
[05:59] <Paddy_EIRE> nickrud, https://launchpad.net/liveusb
[06:00] <nickrud> BeepII what card?
[06:00] <nickrud> Paddy_EIRE thanks
[06:00] <Fryguy--> nickrud: prepare to laugh
[06:00] <ubunubi> josdell: depends on what you tell it to do during the install
[06:00] <Josdell> ubunubi: yes i know
[06:00] <b4l7424r> how do i keep ubuntu from mounting my windows patition at startup?
[06:00] <Josdell> ubunubi: TO install it to the USB Device correct?
[06:00] <avis> can you wipe the mbr of a paritioned linux drive without the data on the partitions being wiped ?
[06:00] <sauvin> Remove it from /etc/fstab.
[06:00] <Fryguy--> b4l7424r: edit /etc/fstab and add noauto to the line for your windows partition
[06:00] <Fryguy--> avis: sure
[06:00] <ubunubi> josell:: tell it to intsall to the mbr of the usb drive
[06:00] <b4l7424r> Fryguy--, thanks
[06:00] <nickrud> Paddy_EIRE so this is a non-persistent version?
[06:01] <avis> Fryguy--, could you share how please
[06:01] <zanco79> hi guys...
[06:01] <Josdell> ubunubi: How would I go about doing that?
[06:01] <Fryguy--> avis: what bootloader do you want to put in it's place?
[06:01] <ubunubi> josdell: in the install it asks where you want to install GRUB...tell it the MBR of the USB Drive (don't know exact wording)
[06:02] <avis> Fryguy--, i'm just curious, i dont actually want to do anything.  i'm just uncertain how you'd clear a /mbr on a drive with data you'd like to keep
[06:02] <ubunubi> josdell: it'll say MBR of /dev/somethingsomething, or partition of /dev/somethingsomething..and pick the USB drive's location
[06:02] <Fryguy--> avis: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/HD count=1 bs=512
[06:02] <Josdell> ubunubi: Do you mean /dev/sdb or /dev/sdb1 or something of the sort?
[06:02] <avis> Fryguy--, thank you
[06:02] <sway> whats the default path to the .fonts folder in ubuntu?
[06:02] <ubunubi> josdell: yes, what'ever the usb drive is identified as
[06:02] <Fryguy--> avis: wait
[06:02] <Fryguy--> avis: that's wrong
[06:02] <Fryguy--> avis: hold on
[06:02] <ubunubi> josdell: just pick the correct one ( the usb drive) or it may overwrite the mbr on a different hd if you pick the wrong one
[06:03] <nickrud> sway $HOME/.fonts
[06:03] <jay> hey... quick one.. how long ( approx ) to DD 100gig from /dev/sda to /dev/sdb ?
[06:03] <sway> ok
[06:03] <ubunubi> josdell: you should be able to ascertain which one the USB drive is by looking at the gparted partition info on the previous screen
[06:03] <Fryguy--> avis: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hda/ bs=446 count=1
[06:03] <sway> do i just have to put the fonts in the folder to install?
[06:03] <Josdell> ubunubi: Should I install in on the first partition of the USB Drive or the USB Drive itself?
[06:03] <Fryguy--> avis: always make backups when messing with hard drives btw
[06:03] <ubunubi> Josdell:: either would work, _i think_, but if you get the option for the usb drive itself...do that to make sure
[06:03] <avis> Fryguy--, yes.  thanks.
[06:04] <ubunubi> josdell: putting it on the first partition on the usb drive might or might not autoload depending on your BIOS
[06:04] <ubunubi> josdell: but either could potentially work
[06:05] <Paddy_EIRE> nickrud, there is a persistent version in the svn
[06:05] <Josdell> ubunubi: so my best bet would be to install GRUB on the USB Drive itself, remove the boot flag from the second partition(syslinux on GParted) and then reboot and try to boot from USB?
[06:05] <nickrud> Paddy_EIRE that's what I'm looking for :)
[06:05] <Paddy_EIRE> lol
[06:06] <ubunubi> josdell: install grub to the usb drive itself...don't mess with the boot flag (it's irrelevent for linux, only windows cares about that flag)...reboot, go into your BIOS..and set your USB drive as the first boot device..then save, and reboot with the USB drive plugged in and cross your fingers
[06:06] <Josdell> ubunubi: is it relevant if the USB Device is the first boot device?
[06:07] <ubunubi> josdell: yes, otherwise your normal HD will boot instead
[06:07] <Josdell> ubunubi: not unless i go into the COmputer's boot menu right?
[06:08] <ubunubi> josdell: in the BIOS there is a list of boot devices. it checks the first one for a valid MBR and boots it if it's found..if not, it tries #2... if you want the USB drive to boot it has to be the first valid device with an MBR/bootloader
[06:08] <ubunubi> josdell: otherwise some other device, like your regular harddrive will be checked first, and booted instead
[06:09] <Josdell> ubunubi: Yeah I get what you're saying but on my computer I can select what I want to boot before it even starts
[06:09] <ubunubi> Josdell: if you can select the USB drive from there...then by all means do so
[06:09] <ubunubi> Josdell: my computer doesn't have that menu so i dont know
[06:10] <Josdell> ubunubi: Okay thanks for all the help, This is very important for me, I will be back here later to say If I was victorious or not. Bye everyone
[06:10] <Utalcn2me> ubunubi, would one copy the ubuntu image to said USB stick, or the filestructure
[06:10] <ubunubi> Utalcn2me: neither. tell the installer itself to put the files onto the usb drive
[06:10] <b4l7424r> there is a "#" in front of each entry in my /etc/fstab, is that normal?
[06:12] <Utalcn2me> b4l7424r, ive noticed that also, i dunno what thats all about either
[06:12] <THC> what girls were in here? ahah j/k
[06:12] <Mayank> hi
[06:12] <buntunub> lol that means the line was commented out and will be ignored
[06:12]  * chalcedony smiles
[06:12] <chalcedony> yes buntunub
[06:13] <chalcedony> who knows about fonts and screen resolution on hardy?
[06:13] <THC> anyone know how to get virtualbox OSE to do raw disk access
[06:13] <buntunub> ssshhh.. im watching "Debbie does Ubuntu" and its quite good :)
[06:13] <ubunubi> !ask | chalcedony
[06:13] <ubunubi> !anyone | chal
[06:13] <b4l7424r> it seems like alot of people aren't updated on how ubuntu handles files like the xf86 and the like
[06:14] <jeeves__> can anyone help me figure out the proper keyboard profile for my Toshiba laptop?
[06:14] <ubunubi> jeeves__: you can function on a generic profile if you don't need special media keys, i think
[06:14] <THC> anyone know how to get virtualbox OSE to do raw disk access ?
[06:15] <jeeves__> ubunubi, I need the extended keyboard (ie. the number pad)
[06:15] <b4l7424r> i meant the xorg of course
[06:15] <Shoopuf> How do I figure out what version a program is in the Add/Remove Program list? In particular I'm looking at the X-Moto game. On the website it says the latest version is 0.4.2, but in the Add/Remove Program list it doesn't have any version information at all!
[06:15] <ubunubi> jeeves__: i only see 1 profile for toshiba ...satellite S3000 ..try that and see if it's the same layout
[06:15] <THC> of course you did
[06:15] <ubunubi> jeeves__: if not, you'll have to do some googling for a custom profile
[06:16] <jeeves__> ubunubi, I did google it, hence why I'm here
[06:16] <ubunubi> jeeves__: you tried the S3000 and it didn't work?
[06:16] <AtomicSpark> i'mma try to install from a server cd. :P
[06:16] <jeeves__> s3000 yea, it killed my input
[06:16] <ubunubi> hrm
[06:16] <THC> did u forget to clean your load off of the keys?
[06:17] <penguincentral> i set up a samba share and now i can't connect to it.  no settings have been changed and i could connect to it last night
[06:17] <THC> lol im j/k
[06:17] <jeeves__> ubunubi, not to mention that now that I have the sound on my speakers, I can't get the headphone jack working, or my dialup modem
[06:18] <THC> is there a way to flush the cached ram ?
[06:18] <LSD|Ninja> THC: that happens as-needed
[06:19] <dfgas> what drivers do i install for geforce 4 go 420
[06:19] <octoberdan> Does Hardy still suck?
[06:19] <b4l7424r> does ubuntu have a graphical tool to edit the fstab file, i want to instruct it to not mount my windows partiton at boot, and i was just looking at the fstab file and it looked like a terrible mess
[06:19] <LSD|Ninja> dfgas: the ones suggested by the hardware drivers panel?
[06:19] <THC> yeah i know that, but i want to do it my self from time to time
[06:19] <octoberdan> or has it stabilized out?
[06:19] <LSD|Ninja> octoberdan: seems that way
[06:19] <Craigery> hello
[06:19] <LSD|Ninja> octoberdan: that it's still crap
[06:19] <octoberdan> ugh...
[06:19] <octoberdan> Ubuntu had so much promise!
[06:19] <MousyManatee> yeah, so far I am 0 for 2 computers on Hardy
[06:20] <ritul> Mayank [n=mayankja@210.18.76.186.sify.net] entered the room.
[06:20] <Mayank> what do want ritul
[06:20] <buntunub> Hardy works beautifully on all 5 of my rigs
[06:21] <ritul> My ubuntu does not recognize my bluetooth hardware .. ever since i installed bluez package in it. Is there any one can help ?
[06:21] <LSD|Ninja> Even when it works, Hardy just seems like a huge step backward from Gutsy
[06:21] <MousyManatee> I wish it did on mine, although gutsy has been great
[06:21] <Utalcn2me> b4l7424r, you need to comment the line with /dev/sda1 on it would be my guess
[06:21] <buntunub> !bluetooth
[06:22] <THC> LSD|Ninja: i feel the same way
[06:22] <ritul> @ubottu .. I followed all the steps .. but hcitool scan says.. no such device.
[06:22] <b4l7424r> Utalcn2me, that line is commented out in my fstab by default so i don't dare mess with it
[06:22] <THC> i just wish my skills were better and had more time to play or else i would be on arch now
[06:22] <s3a> do get the new envy is it: sudo apt-get install envyng-gtk?
[06:22] <Utalcn2me> LSD|Ninja, i like hardy, but i think gutsy was a little bit faster
[06:23] <MousyManatee> about to try gutsy on one computer that refused to work with hardy and see if it works
[06:23] <Mayank> no answer for ritul query
[06:23] <Mayank> :(
[06:24] <buntunub> Hardy is put together differently than Gutsy and before builds mainly due to GNOME 2.22 and PolicyKit
[06:24] <ritul> there was one .. but I followed it already.
[06:24] <chuy_max> MousyManatee, why didnt it work?
[06:24] <Mayank> have you tried sodo hidd --search
[06:24] <buntunub> learn the diffs and how to make them work for you and you will fall in love with Hardy
[06:24] <MousyManatee> it would reboot almost exactly 47 seconds after the mouse cursor appeared
[06:25] <ritul> "no such device "
[06:25] <noah_> what do i use to put videos on my ipod in ubuntu?
[06:25] <MousyManatee> even in safe mode
[06:25] <Mayank> oh :(
[06:25] <Mayank> what in /var/log/messages
[06:25] <ritul> didnt checked
[06:26] <Mayank> does installation of bluez-utils gave some error
[06:26] <buntunub> Mayank: in terminal type $cat /var/log/messages
[06:26] <Mayank> why should I type
[06:26] <Mayank> Ritul is having the problem
[06:26] <Mayank> its not me
[06:26] <giacomo_carissim> what's the command to bring up the run box?
[06:26] <ritul> he he
[06:27] <sanmarcos> hello
[06:27] <bastid_raZor> giacomo_carissim; alt + f2
[06:27] <Mayank> ﻿giacomo_carissim: alt + F2
[06:27] <giacomo_carissim> that works in gnome, but what about fluxbox?
[06:27] <ritul> @buntunub .. linux doesnt recognize bluetooth adapter
[06:27] <ritul> what shall I do ?
[06:28] <Mayank> please help ritul
[06:28] <buntunub> dont know much about bluetooth
[06:28] <Mayank> if anybody of you know the solution please tell him
[06:29] <Mayank> what about helping him with basic installation
[06:29] <buntunub> spose best way to debug is check lsusb and/or lspci for your device and /var/log/kernel.log
[06:29] <ritul> okay .. I l try
[06:29] <buntunub> then google
[06:29] <Utalcn2me> ritul, is bluetooth loaded in your admin/services?
[06:29] <Mayank> hmm
[06:29] <ritul> thx
[06:29] <giacomo_carissim> what is the command for the run window?
[06:29] <ritul> is it is loaded
[06:29] <buntunub> bluetooth is very very well supported in Linux so LOTS of resources out there
[06:30] <Mayank> where ?
[06:30] <ritul> in UI .. it says .. bluetooth services are running ..
[06:30] <Mayank> ﻿ buntunub where ?/
[06:30] <buntunub> www.google.com
[06:30] <ritul> but no bluetooth light..
[06:30] <Mayank> :)
[06:30] <buntunub> search for "bluetooth linux"
[06:30] <ritul> hcitool scan .... "no such device"
[06:30] <Mayank> looks some problem with its kernel ?
[06:30] <buntunub> you need to find your device first and how the kernel sees it
[06:31] <Utalcn2me> ritul, is bluetooth loaded in your system/admin/services?
[06:31] <binskipy2u> hey guys, which runlevel do you mess with to start or stop services?
[06:31] <ritul> yes its loaded .....Utalcn2me
[06:31] <binskipy2u> there's like 6 to choose from
[06:31] <Rat409> giacomo_carissim: there isn't in fluxbox,edit your ~/.fluxbox/keys file use fbrun,grun,whateveris installed
[06:31] <binskipy2u> for a home user desktop
[06:31] <buntunub> if your system does not see the device at all then you must at least know what it is - manufacturer, part #, etc
[06:32] <binskipy2u> if i were using BUM, which run level does BUM affect when you disable a service?
[06:32] <jc__> my bother can't get his monitor beyond 800x600, here is his current xorg.conf file http://paste.ubuntu.com/25610/
[06:32] <binskipy2u> anyone?
[06:32] <buntunub> then try google for that device on linux and see what comes up
[06:32] <giacomo_carissim> thnx
[06:32] <BeepII> Do you have to be in root/sudo to use #sh?
[06:32] <alien_> hello
[06:32] <binskipy2u> anyone know?
[06:32] <ritul> I do think that was working previously.... except when I installed bluez firmware package separately.
[06:32] <binskipy2u> hello?
[06:32] <Utalcn2me> ritul, do you have a special button as to activate bluetooth on your laptop
[06:32] <binskipy2u> what runlevel "bum" affects when you start or stop a service?
[06:33] <Rat409> binskipy2u: depends,but in sysv init systems usually 2,3,4,5 varies by app/service
[06:33] <binskipy2u> i know this
[06:33] <binskipy2u> but.. which one does bum use?
[06:33] <ritul> Utalcn2me..........Yes I have it .. and I switchd it on.. but no light comes up
[06:33] <binskipy2u> when you stop something
[06:33] <binskipy2u> or can i just install bum in kde?
[06:33] <binskipy2u> or is bum gnome only?
[06:33] <Rat409> probly removes it or makes it un-exec in /etc/init.d
[06:34] <Mayank> ritul laptop have separate button for that
[06:34] <BeepII> According to the documentation w/ this driver, I'm supposed to type #sh reallylongfilename.run to install it. . .
[06:34] <BeepII> but it's not doing anything. . .
[06:34] <Utalcn2me> ls /etc/init.d
[06:34] <Mayank> for start and stop
[06:34] <Mayank> of blue tooth
[06:35] <Mayank> I have seen his laptop
[06:35] <ritul> Utalcn2me: ls /etc/init.d .......bluetooth listing
[06:35] <Rat409> BeepII: chmod +x it then ./bla.run from the directory
[06:35] <Utalcn2me> ls /etc/init.d/bluetooth restart maybe?
[06:35] <jc__> can anyone help me get xorg working? I can't beyond 800x600
[06:35] <ritul> I restarted..
[06:35] <ritul> no luck... yet
[06:35] <Mayank> jc__ xorg --configure
[06:35] <Mayank> startx
[06:36] <Mayank> I think X --configure

[06:36] <ritul> buntunub: !resolution | rc_   whats it ????????
[06:37] <Rat409> a typo
[06:37] <Mayank> I think ritul its not for you
[06:37] <holymoly> .
[06:38] <BeepII> rat409:  directory?  sorry, I'm new at this.
[06:38] <Utalcn2me> ritul, less /etc/init.d/bluetooth and see if the service is enabled, DUND_ENABLED=0...HIDD_ENABLED=0
[06:39] <ritul>  okay
[06:39] <Rat409> BeepII: desktop or whereever the file is
[06:40] <Mayank> ﻿Utalcn2me if its not there you can manually restart this
[06:40] <Rat409> b4l7424r: try adding noauto after defaults
[06:40] <Mayank> this will not help ritul
[06:40] <ookami_digital> hey anyone know a good channel to ask about image conversions? Im trying to figure out how to change svg to png.
[06:40] <Mayank> any luck
[06:41] <BeepII> Rat409: So I type that into the terminal?  like this?
[06:41] <BeepII> chmod +x it desktop/filename.run
[06:41] <unop> ookami_digital, just convert the files or do something to them while converting?
[06:41] <ookami_digital> just convert it over so i can work it in photoshop :(
[06:41] <Rat409> BeepII: ls -l if its not marked exec chmod +x filename.file-extension then ./ filename.file-extension
[06:42] <unop> ookami_digital, if you have imagemagick this command works.    convert file.svg  file.png  # but you might lose background transparency, in which case you might need -background transparent
[06:42] <Rat409> as in ./reallylogname.runcd to the fo;der containing said file first
[06:43] <pc04> dd
, problem is im in windows :( \
[06:43] <pc04> uu
[06:43] <unop> ookami_digital, sudo aptitude install imagemagick # to install imagemagick
[06:43] <ookami_digital> :(
[06:43] <unop> ookami_digital, so what are you doing there?
[06:43] <unop> ookami_digital, image magick is available for windows too -- so i guess you can use the same command there too
[06:44] <ookami_digital> oh? ok i will download. is it free?
[06:44] <bastid_raZor> i'm planning on doing an upgrade to 8.04 from 7.10. i have several KDE apps installed (ktorrent k3b etc..) plus avant window navigator.. i know avant is now a package installed by default in 8.04. should i remove them before upgrading? kde apps are 3.5 .. will 8.04 be adding kde 4.0 apps? should i remove the current kde apps and reinstall after the upgrade?
[06:44] <unop> ookami_digital, it is free on linux, it might not be on windows - have a check
[06:44] <unop> ookami_digital, remember, this channel only supports ubuntu :)
[06:44] <b4l7424r> Rat409, thanks for the suggestion, but it occured to me that i could just comment out the whole line, no?
[06:45] <Rat409>  b4l7424r  yes indeed
[06:45] <chalcedony> bastid_raZor i'm still trying to recover from that upgrade, good luck and think 100 times first.
[06:45] <b4l7424r> ok, i'll try that and reboot
[06:46] <bastid_raZor> chalcedony; it didn't go so well? how so?
[06:46] <chalcedony> bastid_raZor i still have no sound, you can't get flash to work
[06:46] <ookami_digital> both links for windows version are down :( http://www.imagemagick.org/script/binary-releases.php#windows
[06:46] <chalcedony> my screen resolution is messed and the fonts..
[06:47] <ookami_digital> know any other apps that might help me convert SVG to PNG? ..
[06:47] <snarkster> why would you need the windows version?? pf all things???
[06:47] <chalcedony> i had LOTS of trouble with open office
[06:47] <bastid_raZor> ookami_digital; gimp
[06:47] <Utalcn2me> bastid_raZor, i would definitely delete some .??? files in your home directory except for a select few so they can rebuild from the new install
[06:47] <buntunub> bastic_raZor: the upgrade should go fine but pay attention to the messages and popup messages and make sure you understand your config setups
[06:47] <bastid_raZor> chalcedony; well, i had planned on doing a fresh install then the long effort of tweaking the desktop again.  i just don't extra storage for backups.
[06:48] <chalcedony> bastid_raZor if you have workfiles or something you can't duplicate save them.. go buy a new drive .. don't jsut do it
[06:48] <buntunub> you can always do a fresh install and remap your old /home partition
[06:48] <bastid_raZor> from the sounds of things i should get the available space for backups then do a fresh install.. that
[06:49] <BeepII> Rat409:  it keeps saying no such file or directory.
[06:49] <Flannel> ookami_digital: Use inkscape, open it, export it to png
[06:49] <BeepII> Do I need to explicitly type desktop?
[06:49] <bastid_raZor> chalcedony; right.. i've been needing to convince myself i really need that TB drive.
[06:49] <Rat409> BeepII: gnome-terminal ,cd to that folder
[06:49] <Rat409> or sh fullpathand filename maybe
[06:50] <snarkster> do i need to keep totem if i install mplayer?
[06:50] <Fryguy--> snarkster: no
[06:50] <unop> ookami_digital, http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=24099&package_id=47692
[06:50] <snarkster> fryguy thank you
[06:50] <tbchk> hi people, someone know c++ programming on gnu/linux ?
[06:50] <Fryguy--> tbchk: i do, but this is the wrong channel, try ##c or ##c++, or #programming
[06:50] <Rat409> BeepII: as in cd /home/BeepII/Desktop then ./bla.run
[06:51] <tbchk> ok thanks
[06:51] <bastid_raZor> chalcedony; i currently have ff2 and ff3 installed.. ff3 does not have working flash.. ff2 works just fine though.. possibly install the ff2 to get it temporarily working
[06:52] <unop> bastid_raZor, ff3 has working flash :)
[06:52] <ubuntu__> can anyone help me how do i find out the username for my computer i forgot it and cant log in
[06:52] <snarkster> chalcedony I have ff3 installed and everything works just fine
[06:52] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> cd /home
[06:52] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> ls
[06:52] <Fryguy--> ubuntu__: look at /etc/passwd
[06:52] <ookami_digital> Thanks guys!!!! Gimp will allow me to edit the way i need!
[06:52] <ubuntu__> cd /home?
[06:52] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> for list of users
[06:52] <BeepII> Rat409: oh, you mean move it to the desktop
[06:52] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> guys nees to login?
[06:53] <ubuntu__> ya i dont know the user name
[06:53] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> 'cd /home

[06:53] <okasa> hey, so i'm unable to get audio output out of VLC in 8.04, other players i have tried have audio (vlc output works with integrated audio, but am attempting with audigy 2 pci card)
[06:53] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> then do a ls command
[06:53] <ubuntu__> switched loginscreens and it didnt saveit like it did b4
[06:53] <Rat409> BeepII: you must know where you put it,cd=change directory to one containing your file
[06:53] <unop> ls ~ # quite simply
[06:53] <Fryguy--> unop: ls /home you mean
[06:54] <unop> my bad
[06:54] <snarkster> ` IS HOME ISNT IT?
[06:54] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> well that might not work if he cant login at all?
[06:54] <snarkster> sorry didnt mean to yell
[06:54] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> try logging in as root
[06:54] <snarkster> good luck with that
[06:54] <Fryguy--> snarkster: ~ is the currently logged in users home dir
[06:54] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> home containts users
[06:54] <Fryguy--> PROTECT_YA_NECK: guarantee he doesn't know roots password
[06:54] <snarkster> ah right duh
[06:54] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> you can reset them
[06:55] <Fryguy--> PROTECT_YA_NECK: right
[06:55] <unop> PROTECT_YA_NECK, not recommended tho
[06:55] <Flannel> PROTECT_YA_NECK: He shouldn't.  But the recovery console will accomplish it.
[06:55] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> <teacher use to say, if you can touch it you can own it
[06:55] <unop> PROTECT_YA_NECK, yes, but it is not necessary to own it in that way
[06:55] <Fryguy--> PROTECT_YA_NECK: not necessarily true
[06:55] <bastid_raZor> unop; might i ask how upgraded to 8.04 or did you start with a fresh install?
[06:55] <Fryguy--> PROTECT_YA_NECK: you can touch a file that you have group access to, but you can't chown it
[06:55] <snarkster> hey a houston boy.. I just moved from there 6 months ago... hows the weather?
[06:56] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> it is a expression, most cases this is true
[06:56] <unop> bastid_raZor, i never do fresh installs
[06:56] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> fairly debatable though
[06:56] <Fryguy--> PROTECT_YA_NECK: also it's often not true for nfs mounts
[06:56] <unop> bastid_raZor, i've been upgrading all the way from edgy
[06:56] <Flannel> Fryguy--: I imagine he was referring to physical access to the machine
[06:56] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> yes
[06:56] <Fryguy--> Flannel: and I imagine he was referring to the touch command
[06:57] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> if you can touch the machine, you may control it
[06:57] <bastid_raZor> unop; just fixing the issues that come up as you upgrade.. did you have many issues from your upgrade?
[06:57] <BeepII> rat409: ok, I got that.  (took me long enough. x.x)  so now I do the chmod thing?
[06:57] <okasa> has anyone else had problems getting audio to work on vlc using a pci sound card?
[06:57] <Fryguy--> PROTECT_YA_NECK: that's not necessarily true either
[06:57] <nomadwu> hi
[06:57] <snarkster> hahaha if the machine is physically in your possession then you can touch it QED you own it.
[06:57] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> interesting to ponder though
[06:57] <Rat409> BeepII: try ls -l first if you see no x then chmod it yes
[06:57] <unop> bastid_raZor, well yea, quite a handful each time -- but i don't run a full gnome desktop, so i don't run into as many problems
[06:58] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> i love the concept of gaining access to a machine i am in front of
[06:58] <Fryguy--> PROTECT_YA_NECK: encrypted system drive on a machine with no removable media is pretty hard to take control of and do something meaningful with
[06:58] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> very debatable
[06:58] <unop> !ot
[06:58] <jc__> Mayank: tried dpkg-reconfigure xserver-org both with and without -plow and -phigh and we still can't get the monitor resolution higher then 800x600
[06:59] <EugenMayer> hello, with an t5500 core dou and a 2.6.26-rc6 kernel i want to undervolt and be able to clock my CPU. For the undervolt-kernel patches i know the path, but in the package list are tons of cpufreq tools. Whichi one is to use ?
[06:59] <unop> jc_, you might need to force xorg to use a higher resolution by editing the xorg.conf file
[06:59] <unop> jc__, ^^
[07:00] <jc__> unop: we've tried editing the xorg file directly and still no good
[07:00] <unop> jc__, and what happens when you do that?
[07:00] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> or reconfigure x
[07:00] <jc__> unop: we only get 800x600 ad 640x480 as resoluiton choices
[07:01] <iTush> what's ubuntu?
[07:01] <unop> jc__, what kind of video adapter do you have?
[07:01] <unop> !ubuntu | iTush
[07:01] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> ubuntu is a open source operating system
[07:01] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> debian based
[07:01] <iTush> o
[07:01] <iTush> is it good or shit?
[07:01] <jc__> unop: nvidia 7300
[07:01] <unop> !language | iTush
[07:02] <iTush> k
[07:02] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> jc try to reconfigure x
[07:02] <Fryguy--> iTush: it's pretty bad
[07:02] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> i assume you dont have the non supported nvidia driver installed?
[07:02] <BeepII> ﻿rat409:  This is what I got:
[07:02] <BeepII> chmod -x VIA_
[07:02] <jc__> PROTECT_YA_NECK: we've tried that and every time the result is the same, only 800x600
[07:03] <BeepII> ooops.
[07:03] <BeepII> gonna try that again
[07:03] <iTush> kk
[07:03] <Rat409> BeepII: chmod +x filename.run then ./filename.run
[07:03] <iTush> thanks
[07:03] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> one sec, grabbing link for help forum
[07:03] <stephen> hello
[07:03] <unop> jc__, have you seen this? http://ge.ubuntuforums.com/showthread.php?t=798881
[07:03] <akuma55__> hello
[07:03] <BeepII> it said bash: -: command not found
[07:03] <akuma55__> whats new guys
[07:03] <BeepII> Rat409: it said bash: -: command not found
[07:03] <jc__> unop: no I'll take a look at it now
[07:03] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> jc, try this link here for newer nvidia cards: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaManual
[07:04] <stephen> i just upgraded from ubuntu 7.1 to the newest version and I can no longer use my wireless connection... can anybody help me
[07:04] <akuma55__> im loveing this ubuntu server
[07:04] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> worked for my 8600 card
[07:04] <Utalcn2me> BeepII, the first line in your file should have #!/bin/bash
[07:04] <jc__> unop: here is my current xorg file:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/25624/
[07:04] <Rat409> BeepII: you probly need build-essential
[07:04] <unop> Utalcn2me, assuming it is a bash script - but do you know that?
[07:05] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> the dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg command works for reconfiguring x
[07:05] <unop> PROTECT_YA_NECK, he's already done that apparently
[07:05] <stephen> i just upgraded from ubuntu 7.1 to the newest version and I can no longer use my wireless connection... can anybody help me
[07:05] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> if you edit the xorg file you must restart gdm or kdm
[07:05] <unop> you need to restart the DM anyway
[07:05] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> hopefully he is not using the machine
[07:05] <Rat409> BeepII:  a .run is usually a binary installer
[07:05] <stephen> has anybody else had problems with there wireless adapters in the new ubuntu
[07:05] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> that would suck
[07:06] <JuNiOx> hi, I'm looking for some program to get only the title from some pages... I tried 'lynx' with -dump option, then some greps .. without success, does anyone know how to do that?
[07:06] <Flannel> stephen: What card do you have, what were you using to connect before? (ndiswrapper?) etc.  We'll need more information
[07:06] <BeepII> rat409: yes
[07:06] <stephen> i think it is an atheros ... im not sure on the model
[07:06] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> stephen i have been using the same pcmcia card for 2 years
[07:06] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> in my dell latititude 110l
[07:06] <farhadi> hi all, how can I copy all files in a folder to another folder while existing files were not overwritten (using terminal)
[07:07] <BeepII> rat409:  ok, I see what I did wrong.  if I don't type -| to start a new line, the first part works.
[07:07] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> file names must be different
[07:07] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> wow i feel like i am working
[07:07] <BeepII> but then it says ./filename.run doesn't exist.
[07:07] <stephen> flanel it was an atheros and i was using the default connection browser in ubuntu
[07:07] <jc__> unop: going to give those things a try will let you know the outcome ....
[07:07] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> goodluck jc
[07:08] <unop> jc__, ok, hope it works
[07:08] <stephen> any reason why it would just quit working after i did the automatic upgrade
[07:08] <Utalcn2me> BeepII, try giving it the full path
[07:08] <BeepII> Utalcn2me:  what does the full path start with?
[07:09] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> depends on how you upgraded
[07:09] <BeepII> I mean, like, home/desktop/whatever or what?
[07:09] <Flannel> JuNiOx: wget URL -O - | grep "\<title\>.*</title\>" -
[07:09] <JuNiOx> Flannel, tks dude... tried it also, however the server does not allow me to wget pages =/
[07:09] <WNz{afk}> Hey guys. What file is the shortcuts (such as XF86AudioPlay) defined in?
[07:09] <JuNiOx> 403, forbidden
[07:10] <Flannel> JuNiOx: actually, you'll want to add -q to that.
[07:10] <Utalcn2me> BeepII, how about bash /home/you/filename
[07:10] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> what do you mean by shortcuts?
[07:10] <WhoNeedszzz> keyboard shortcuts
[07:10] <chuy_max> stephen, check if you get access point signal with kwifimanager, otherwise, your driver might not be working, or not loaded
[07:10] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> symbolic links are links to other files; aka shortcuts
[07:10] <Flannel> stephen: doesn't show up in lspci or lsusb?
[07:10] <chuy_max> or not connected :p
[07:10] <stephen> sec
[07:11] <stephen> im a newb
[07:11] <WhoNeedszzz> PROTECT_YA_NECK: ...irrelevant
[07:11] <Flannel> JuNiOx: Well if you output the HTML and pipe it to that grep, you'll get it.  However you manage to obtain the HTML
[07:11] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> yes his message was late
[07:11] <unop> JuNiOx, wget -q google.com -O - | perl -nle 'print /<title>(.*?)</i'
[07:11] <JuNiOx> hum... let me check
[07:12] <ubuntu__> ok how do i find out my username so i can login lol
[07:12] <stephen> yes it shows up in lspci
[07:12] <Flannel> ubuntu__: You're on a liveCD, right?
[07:12] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> everyone is ubuntu on live cd
[07:12] <Fryguy--> ubuntu__: look at /etc/password, or ls /home.  You've been instructed how to do this already
[07:12] <ubuntu__> now i am
[07:12] <Fryguy--> PROTECT_YA_NECK: yes
[07:12] <Flannel> PROTECT_YA_NECK: Thats not the only thing you could be, and isn't the only time you could be either.
[07:13] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> whoami works if logged in
[07:13] <Timmy201> Hey can anyone tell me why I can't change permissions on a FAT32 partition of the hard drive with just files/folders on it? I use the sudo command and it appears to work but the permissions don't change... Thanks.
[07:13] <unop> ubuntu__, now that you are on the live CD? have you chrooted into the system?
[07:13] <Flannel> ubuntu__: You want to look in the home directory on your actual harddrive.  Which isn't /home/ but home/ inside f your mounted harddrive
[07:13] <Fryguy--> Timmy201: fat32 doesn't have file permissions, at least not unix file permissions

[07:13] <WhoNeedszzz> Ok so to reword my question. How do I redifine what XF86AudioPlay and such shortcuts do?
[07:13] <stephen> thats what it says
[07:13] <mephux> anyone running Ubuntu on an iMac in here?
[07:13] <WhoNeedszzz> redefine*
[07:14] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> <not sure on media keys
[07:14] <Timmy201> Oh ya... that makes sense... Thanks.
[07:14] <WhoNeedszzz> stephen, get madwifi
[07:14] <stephen> ok
[07:14] <BeepII> Utalcn2me: Yeah, not working.  Eeven when I cd all the way back
[07:14] <stephen> i downloaded it and installed it ... just dont know what to do with it
[07:15] <WhoNeedszzz> stephen, how exactly did you install it?
[07:15] <ubuntu__> unop no i have not chrooted
[07:15] <Flannel> ubuntu__: You don't need to chroot, just browse to it.
[07:15] <stephen> through synaptic package manager
[07:15] <Utalcn2me> BeepII, you doing a bash script, or python maybe?
[07:15] <stephen> whoneedszzz , through synaptic package manager
[07:15] <BeepII> Utalcn2me: not that I know of. . .
[07:16] <BeepII> I've never used Python though the cd  looks familiar from a C++ lab I had a couple months ago
[07:16] <Aaron__> hey is there any other software like wicd?
[07:16] <BeepII> I don't know if that's bash though
[07:17] <unop> BeepII, use this command to find out.   file -s /path/to/file
[07:17] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> new distro changed how scripts are run?
[07:17] <WhoNeedszzz> stephen, there's the problem. download latest tar pkg and run make, sudo make install, and sudo modprobe ath_pci
[07:17] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> 8.04or >
[07:17] <greeg> hi
[07:17] <ubuntu__> flannel your confuseing were do i brows n for what
[07:17] <Utalcn2me> BeepII, i would try to run whatever is in that file from a command line to see where it's failing
[07:17] <greeg> when i run a particular program from the command line, and i know this program is not the only program that emmits this error message. i get this --> Error: Unable to initialize gtk, is DISPLAY set properly?
[07:17] <stephen> ok thx
[07:18] <greeg> i tried it as root, i tried it as a regular user account
[07:18] <unop> ubuntu__, mount your harddrive up and browse it
[07:18] <greeg> i need to run this form the command line becuase im scripting when in the day this program can run.
[07:18] <Flannel> ubuntu__: You should have your harddrive in places, if not, check in /meda
[07:18] <Fryguy--> gregL: is X11 running
[07:18] <Flannel> ubuntu__: /media that is
[07:18] <jc__> unop: PROTECT_YA_NECK:  ok I've tried the stuff in that post, and now I'm getting an overrange error? any thoughts?
[07:18] <jc__> and the monitor just goes blank now
[07:19] <unop> jc__, meaning you have set values too high, try something lower
[07:19] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> over range?
[07:19] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> did you installl driver from command line?
[07:19] <unop> jc__, press CTRL+ALT+F1 to get to a console - from where you can kill X
[07:19] <ubuntu__> unop mounted now look for what
[07:19] <unop> ubuntu__, find the /home directory and look under it
[07:19] <BeepII> Utalcn2me: It's failing at finding the file...
[07:19] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> if so, did you change dpkg configuration for monitor?
[07:20] <ubuntu__> it has the names but not the passwords
[07:20] <Fryguy--> ubuntu__: you can't get the password
[07:20] <Fryguy--> ubuntu__: you can only change it
[07:20] <unop> ubuntu__, so you know your username but not your password? is that it?
[07:20] <jc__> unop: PROTECT_YA_NECK ok what should I do then to lower the it
[07:20] <BeepII> Utalcn2me: oooo I got it
[07:20] <BeepII> finally
[07:20] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg to reconfigure monitor
[07:20] <Flannel> ubuntu__: You originally asked to find out the username, not the password.
[07:20] <unop> jc__, have a look at your xorg.conf
[07:21] <BeepII> all hail the dir command

[07:21] <jc__> unop: what am I looking for?
[07:21] <Fryguy--> yes
[07:21] <Josdell> is ubunubi here?
[07:21] <BeepII> Thanks Utalcn2me & Rat409
[07:22] <ubunubi> josdell:: i was afk, but it beeps when you say my name :P
[07:22] <Aaron_> hey is there any other software like wicd?
[07:22] <WhoNeedszzz> How do I redefine keyboard shortcuts such as XF86AudioPlay?
[07:22] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> considering the proprietary driver was install, and stop gdm before doing it?
[07:22] <whyameye> has automatix been taken down?
[07:22] <unop> jc__, Depth and Modes in the Screen Section
[07:22] <Flannel> whyameye: thankfully, yes.
[07:22] <tonyyarusso> whyameye: Yes.
[07:22] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> then followed other directions for preinstall
[07:22] <Fryguy--> whyameye: automatix has been deprecated for a while now, don't use it
[07:22] <Mrevox11> Hello Fry guy. I did a few trial and errors and I poked and prodded around. Now I am able to view a list of available wireless connections. But when I enter the passkey to mine ubuntu just asks me for the passkey again and wont connect to the wifi.
[07:22] <Mrevox11> can you help?
[07:22] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> during driver install, it rewrites new xorg file
[07:23] <Aaron_> hey is there any other software like wicd?
[07:23] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> you must have gdm off to do so
[07:23] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: no
[07:23] <Josdell> ubunubi: thank you, I installed the Ubuntu onto the first partition of the USB drive and GRUB onto the USB Device itself and
[07:23] <whyameye> I haven't seen much else work as a flash player on 64 bit Gutsy but whatever. I know anybody who says anything positive about automatix gets flamed here. I was just asking if the website was gone.
[07:23] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> make sure you not using the display when writing to it jc
[07:23] <Mrevox11> I tried putting the setting on "Shared Key" but it just freezes.
[07:24] <Fryguy--> whyameye: flash works fine from the standard repositories, even 64-bit
[07:24] <Josdell> ubunubi:: now I need to edit the menu.lst of the GRUB file, i need to change it to hd0 right?
[07:24] <WhoNeedszzz> Aaron_: why bother, wicd is great
[07:24] <WhoNeedszzz> Aaron_, what's your problem with wicd?
[07:24] <whyameye> Fryguy--, it didn't for me, which is why I tried Automatix.
[07:24] <ubunubi> Josdell: you shouldn't need to edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst at all...it should've been written by the install program
[07:24] <WhoNeedszzz> How do I redefine keyboard shortcuts such as XF86AudioPlay?
[07:26] <Josdell> ubunubi: I had to last time I did this because in GRUB hd0 stands for the device GRUB is installed on I believe. SO I need to change the root for Ubuntu to hd0 from hd1 right?
[07:26] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> think there is some programs that use the windows key with additional key strokes on some programs whoneeds
[07:26] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> that would be a good place to start
[07:27] <Flannel> WhoNeedszzz: you want to change what that key does? or which physical key calls XFAP?
[07:27] <apinunt> ubuntu 7.04 - My usb ports seem to encounter a problem when moving large files to a memory stick or external hard drive, and often I see a message as though I am trying to remove the device while it is busy, when I am not, causing the file transfer to cease.

[07:31] <jc__> how do you kill X?
[07:32] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> gdm jc?
[07:32] <unop> jc__, sudo /etc/init.d/?dm stop
[07:32] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> sudo /ect/init.d/gdm stop
[07:32] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> sudo /ect/init.d/gdm start
[07:32] <unop> jc__, or just press CTRL+ALT+Backspace
[07:32] <unop> within X i.e.
[07:32] <jc__> unop: PROTECT_YA_NECK thats what I did bummer, I was hopping I was not killing X correctly
[07:33] <WhoNeedszzz> Flannel: I don't want to go through all that, my key is recognized in keyboard shortcuts but i want to change XF86... to my own script
[07:33] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> ctr alt backspace will log off the current session
[07:33] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> essentially killing it
[07:33] <b4l7424r> i made my windows partition unmounted by default but i would also like to keep it from showing up in nautilus, is that possible?
[07:33] <WhoNeedszzz> PROTECT_YA_NECK: that kills everything without warning (doesn't save either)
[07:33] <unop> PROTECT_YA_NECK, same as stopping the GDM
[07:33] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> yes
[07:33] <q_a_z_steve> Can anyone help me get my nvidia card to work correctly with a laptop and external display?
[07:33] <jc__> unop: PROTECT_YA_NECK I am still getting the over range error even though I've lowered the resultion to 1024x768 and the depth to 16
[07:33] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> not same as stopping
[07:33] <WhoNeedszzz> q_a_z_steve: sure
[07:34] <WhoNeedszzz> q_a_z_steve: what card?
[07:34] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> over range sounds like it is wrong monitor settings
[07:34] <unop> jc__, does not look like you have the right drivers installed for your card
[07:34] <q_a_z_steve> WhoNeedszzz: one sec
[07:34] <q_a_z_steve> [GeForce Go 7400]
[07:34] <jc__> unop: I installed the nvidia driver using envyNG
[07:34] <q_a_z_steve> WhoNeedszzz: [GeForce Go 7400]
[07:34] <Flannel> WhoNeedszzz: Yes, Thats in the very beginning of that page, and the very end
[07:35] <lameck> hi
[07:35] <unop> PROTECT_YA_NECK, stopping the DM - does not give the user enough time to properly logoff either - it is essentially the same as a CTRL+ALT+Backspace
[07:35] <q_a_z_steve> WhoNeedszzz: right now I'm stuck without either working correctly
[07:35] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> what steps did you do for driver jc?
[07:35] <WhoNeedszzz> q_a_z_steve: ok simple. Download the proper binary file from nvidia.com and kill gdm and then install the binary
[07:35] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> stop or the otherway will kill session
[07:35] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> so yes jc

[07:36] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaManual
[07:36] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> should be the right one
[07:36] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> rather useful

[07:37] <DigitalNinja> I've tried using "record my desktop" and Istanbul without any luck.

[07:37] <Ahadiel> q_a_z_steve, ./filename.run

[07:37] <jc__> unop: http://ge.ubuntuforums.com/showthread.php?t=798881
[07:37] <unop> q_a_z_steve, depends, you really ought to be following instructions from the author/vendor -- a .run file could be anything
[07:37] <WhoNeedszzz> q_a_z_steve: kill gdm, and then sudo path/to/runfile
[07:38] <q_a_z_steve> What's the proper way to kill gdm? sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop Right?
[07:38] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> the forum is pretty straight forward

[07:40] <ranfea> blah
[07:40] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> very confusing max
[07:40] <WhoNeedszzz> Does anyone know how to redefine pre-defined shortcuts in Keyboard Shortcuts?
[07:41] <DigitalNinja> chuy_max: Try "make uninstall"
[07:41] <unop> jc__, try not using the xorg.conf -- see what happens.   sudo mv -vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf{,.bak} && sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart
[07:41] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> i think he means multiple apps compiled from source
[07:41] <chuy_max> ok DigitalNinja , let me try that
[07:41] <dlee> WhoNeedszzz: it depends on the desktop environment you're using
[07:41] <Flannel> WhoNeedszzz: gnome-keyboard-bindings should allow you to add new ones
[07:42] <WhoNeedszzz> dlee, gnome
[07:42] <Flannel> WhoNeedszzz: If not, you'll want to fire up gconf and we can add it manually
[07:42] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> gnome is awsome
[07:42] <dlee> Flannel is your answer
[07:42] <thiefness> Excuse me, but for whatever reason since I installed ubuntu hardy heron I have been getting terrible terrible internet speeds over my wireless but have no idea why, can anyone help?

[07:43] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> is there a firewall there thief?
[07:43] <jc__> unop: sorry confused, don't you need xorg.conf for x to start? what doesn't md -vi /etc/X!!/xrog.conf{,.bak} rename the xorg.conf fot xorg.conf.bak so we'll be restarting x without the xorg.conf file?
[07:43] <dlee> ubottu: what do you mean?

[07:44] <dlee> :(
[07:44] <oddalot> anyone know?
[07:44] <thiefness> PROTECT_YA_NECK: there shouldn't be unless hardy comes with one turned on by default, but i don't believe it does
[07:44] <Flannel> chalcedony: What?
[07:44] <ziggy_> i have fully went thro all these steps on this site and my Kiba Dock isn't working http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=554127
[07:44] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> yes jc. you need the file, and make a backup prior to make changes to it
[07:44] <unop> jc__, that's mv not md :) and yes, the idea is not to have a xorg.conf - xorg can work without one
[07:44] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> I dont think it has a firewall by default
[07:44] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> i use guarddog
[07:44] <jc__> unop: ok I'll give it a try
[07:45] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> there is firestarter for gnome
[07:45] <thiefness> ports are open on router as well
[07:45] <unop> PROTECT_YA_NECK, no, the new xorg does not need a config file, it tries it's best to configure itself automagically
[07:45] <DigitalNinja> ziggy_ Go Kiba Dock! I'm in Gnome and using "Avant Window Navigator"
[07:45] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> i didnt know they changed that
[07:45] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> still thinking of old school ubuntu
[07:45] <Flannel> ziggy_: Your best bet is to ask in a thread referencing that one.  (I'd say ask in that thread, but its read only)
[07:45] <WhoNeedszzz> Flannel: ah, cool, thanks
[07:46] <ziggy_> well how do i install Avant Windows Navigator
[07:46] <DigitalNinja> ziggy_: Look for it in Synaptic
[07:46] <ziggy_> and is there a video i can watch like you tube to understand how its being done
[07:46] <Flannel> ziggy_: Its in the repositories, or you can install a newer one through PPA: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=762363
[07:46] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> most likely the videos on you tube are people showing off their work, not tutorials
[07:47] <ziggy_> ive done these steps befor there wasn't anything on Avant then i was told to goto a site
[07:47] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> best place for learning is forums
[07:47] <ziggy_> that didn't help
[07:47] <Flannel> ziggy_: Check that ubuntuforums link, it'll walk you through it
[07:47] <DigitalNinja> ziggy_: I'm trying to figure out how screencasts are made. So far I havn't had much luck on that or I would create one for you.
[07:47] <chalcedony> how many stories do you hear that go"before I upgraded to Hardy.." well.. i think it changed my screen resolution, i was using ~$ xvidtune to adjust after every reboot.. now I don't have to and we had to change the refresh rate. BUT in xchat and open office it's harder to see the letters and punctuation. So i tried changing the font in Xhchat and now it's really messed up. How do i tell what my screen

[07:48] <DigitalNinja> [Michelangelo] Just boot off the CD and do an install. You don't need Windows any way.
[07:48] <jc__> unop: ok removed xorg.conf and restarted X, now we've got 800x600 resolution, now what?
[07:48] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> chalcedony, depends on screen size, the manufacturer always will specify the default safe settings on their site?
[07:48] <zvacet> [The_Oracle] : that should be enough
[07:49] <Flannel> [The_Oracle]: Do you plan on hibernating?
[07:49] <[Michelangelo]> DigitalNinja: I need it
[07:49] <scabootssca> How is the size of the swap calculated? like by the auto-partioner
[07:49] <[The_Oracle]> Flannel:  I might hibernate
[07:49] <DigitalNinja> [Michelangelo] LOL!
[07:49] <WhoNeedszzz> Flannel: ok that just adds some key shortcut, but what tells the key what to do when pressed?
[07:49] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> oracle, 1/2 or ram or less, depending on what the machine is doing
[07:49] <Flannel> [The_Oracle]: Then you'll need at least 4GB

[07:55] <chalcedony> Flannel: unop anyone: this is what i get for screen resolution, http://paste.ubuntu.com/25634/ i also made a screenshot:  http://img92.imageshack.us/my.php?image=20080707fontsscreenshotla2.png
[07:56] <chalcedony> how do i fix it so I can see my letters and punctuation?
[07:56] <[Michelangelo]> Wubi doesn't work with Vaio VGN-AR31S!
[07:56] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> not sure i would blame the os for the problem considering the other variables involved
[07:56] <blind1> bazhang: do you have reliable source for "burn at lower speed" idea? i keep hearing this BS (in my opinion) from people.
[07:56] <Jabop> anyone familiar with KVpnc?
[07:56] <oddalot> microwaver i was only saying this because if i look at a black image with lines really close together my screen starts to pulsate strangely
[07:57] <[Michelangelo]> after using the wubi in Vista I can see the folders
[07:57] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> virtual private network connection jab?
[07:57] <thiefness> i know it's the OS, the OS is ubuntu hardy heron, my other computer is using it fine, I'm not sure why I'm having this problem =x
[07:57] <bazhang> blind1, you need help? that is well documented.
[07:57] <blind1> bazhang: can you point to where it is documented?
[07:57] <WhoNeedszzz> Flannel: thanks
[07:57] <Flannel> blind1: It is important.
[07:57] <[Michelangelo]> but after the reboot is not work
[07:57] <[Michelangelo]> Error 14
[07:57] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> networking is very complex thief, check all factors involved
[07:57] <amirman> how do i change the splash screen that comes up after the login screen? i've done it before but now i can't find it
[07:58] <jeffimperial> does any of you know of an iTalc .deb package that works with dapper?
[07:58] <unop> chalcedony, so what's the problem?  fonts in xchat?
[07:58] <Fryguy--> amirman: system appearances menu
[07:58] <chalcedony> unop: i think it's more likely screen resolution than just Xchat fonts
[07:58] <amirman> Fryguy--: thanks
[07:59] <chalcedony> as a side question is there a way to get standard american fonts because what i have seems to mostly be indian
[07:59] <thiefness> The same results on your site you provided protect, and yes I know, I'm a computer science major.
[07:59] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> arial black ect?
[07:59] <unop> chalcedony, is it just xchat that you have problems with - kinda hard to ascertain from the screenshot
[07:59] <microwaver> oddalot, do you have a LCD or CRT screen?
[07:59] <blind1> Flannel: i dont see a point. why to make high speed devices and blank discs, if you should not burn at these speeds?
[07:59] <unop> have you got msttcorefonts installed?
[08:00] <Fryguy--> blind1: burning at higher speeds is usually fine, sometimes not. when it's not, you burn at a lower speed.  Sounds pretty simple to me
[08:00] <amirman> Fryguy--: i can't find it in appearance
[08:00] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> common sense blind
[08:00] <chalcedony> unop: xchat and open office .. just the letters are lighter and more vague, punctuation got less obvious, i can't tell , from .  or ; from :
[08:00] <Fryguy--> amirman: should be like 3rd tab or something
[08:00] <blind1> Fryguy--: ok i'll try that
[08:00] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> if you transfer data at high rates of speeds, expect data loss
[08:00] <[Michelangelo]> any help? or Idea?
[08:00] <Flannel> blind1: Who knows.  People don't always know whats best for them.
[08:00] <l815> when installing flash 10 what should I put for mozillas directory
[08:01] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> mozilla is in /usr/lib/mozilla by default
[08:01] <Flannel> blind1: If it makes you feel better, here's as third party as you're going to get: A story about MS warning about it: http://apcmag.com/burn_slower_or_risk_data_loss_warns_microsoft.htm
[08:01] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> may vary depends on browser
[08:01] <amirman> Fryguy--: it's not in there, the third tab is fonts, the splash screen is the one that comes up after login and before the desktop is loaded
[08:01] <l815> but when I enter that it says "please enter a valid directory" -_-
[08:01] <oddalot> lcd
[08:02] <Fryguy--> amirman: there is no screen that comes up between those 2 that i know of.  i can't help you, sorry.
[08:02] <jc__> unop: sorry it took so long, here are the results:  http://pastebin.com/f65ac9dd8
[08:02] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> did you install from source or deb?
[08:02] <blackrabbit> l815, /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/
[08:02] <blackrabbit> l815, or ~/.mozilla
[08:02] <Fryguy--> l815: you need to navigate to the plugins directory underneath there
[08:03] <l815> I just found an alternative install method ("cp libflashplayer.so ~/.mozilla/plugins")
[08:03] <amirman> Fryguy--: oh nevermind then, there is a screen you can enable there and i have and i've changed it before but now i cant find or remember how i did it
[08:03] <Flannel> blind1: For video DVDs/audio CDs, etc.  A few bits lost here and there isn't usually the end of the world.
[08:03] <blackrabbit> l815, correct
[08:03] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> <i always install adobe flash from source, guaranteed to work
[08:03] <chalcedony> unop: if you are lookng at the screenshot, the copy of the Xchat on the left is the one i tried to *improve* the font on, i can't stand to look at it
[08:04] <l815> thanks
[08:04] <chalcedony> unop: click and it gets full sized, then you can (sort of) see what i mean
[08:04] <unop> chalcedony, can't you choose a slightly lower resolution?
[08:04] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> jc , did you go back to default or generic monitor
[08:04] <chalcedony> unop: how?
[08:04] <unop> chalcedony, gnome-display-properties i think
[08:04] <unop> jc__, gimme a minute
[08:04] <chalcedony> and which is higher and which is lower? unop
[08:05] <jc__> PROTECT_YA_NECK: thats without the xorg.conf file at all
[08:05] <blind1> Flannel: thanks... but maybe problem is just with specific (defective) drives and/or media?
[08:05] <jc__> unop: sure take your time :)
[08:05] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> and you get that error?
[08:05] <unop> chalcedony,  eh? are you serious? :)
[08:05] <clee-saan> Hi, i'm using the latest Ubuntu Lite, and i can't get youtube-like sites to work. I used the apt-get command to install gnash (free flash player), but it's still not working. What should i do ?
[08:05] <jc__> PROTECT_YA_NECK: no error this time but I can't get a resolution higher then 800x600
[08:05] <unop> chalcedony,  1024x1024 < 1024x7668
[08:05] <chalcedony> unop: er it's numbers? and where is 'gnome' ?
[08:05] <unop> etc
[08:05] <holycow> !ubuntu-lite
[08:06] <chalcedony> ahh
[08:06] <Fryguy--> clee-saan: install flashpplugin-nonfree
[08:06] <holycow> what is ubuntu lite?
[08:06] <chalcedony> ty unop
[08:06] <Flannel> blind1: If I remember correctly, it has to do with the way the data is cached/written at higher speeds.
[08:06] <unop> chalcedony, err, sorry, that was 768
[08:06] <clee-saan> holycow: a ubuntu for slow computers
[08:06] <clee-saan> Fryguy--: will try that
[08:06] <holycow> say what?
[08:06] <francis_> Hello , i have eth0 eth0:1 eth0:2 eth0:3 with ip addresses 10.20.77.100 , 10.20.77.110 and 10.20.77.120 but Ntop shows that all traffic is through 10.20.30.120 . I think i have a routing problem. Any Advice ??
[08:06] <Flannel> blind1: But, we're getting off topic.  We can continue in #ubuntu-offtopic if you'd like
[08:06] <chalcedony> unop ty
[08:06] <holycow> how does that even make sense, is this a new release inever heard of or is it just a repo someone is running somewhere?
[08:07] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> clee: you are missing flash if you cant view video
[08:07] <Fryguy--> francis_: what do you want to do?
[08:07] <jc__> PROTECT_YA_NECK: yes up to 1280x1024

[08:07] <blind1> Flannel: ok, i'll try to burn at low speed now... i have 1 blank dvd left...
[08:07] <francis_> Fryguy--, i have the interfaces because i run multiple instances of dansgaurdian and squid
[08:07] <lances> Hello everyone, I've run into a very very odd problem that I was hoping to get some help with.
[08:07] <holycow> you mean probably that you are just running xfce as a desktop environment or similar, yes?
[08:08] <Fryguy--> !anyone | lances
[08:08] <ziggy_> anyone understand
[08:08] <Fryguy--> ziggy_: why not just install avant from the ubuntu repositories
[08:08] <unop> jc_, ok, xorg is defaulting to the vesa driver here - what does this return?  lsmod | egrep -i "nvi|glx"
[08:09] <ziggy_> i did it error
[08:09] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> when in doubt? install from source.
[08:09] <Fryguy--> ziggy_: what error
[08:09] <ziggy_> sayed i had to make a folder
[08:09] <amirman> Fryguy--: he was saying "hello everyone", ubottu's factoid on anyone does not apply to that
[08:09] <lances> When set up my IPv6 tunnel through sixxs it breaks connectivity to a few websites that worked before I enabled IPV6
[08:09] <unop> ziggy_, you forgot part of the command there :)
[08:09] <unop> ziggy_, i.e. svn
[08:09] <kerin> I'm using Hardy (fully updated) and for some reason Wine won't report the size of my home partition (which is the partition my wine drive is on!) - however, it reports the root and NTFS partition sizes perfectly.
[08:09] <kerin> How do I fix this?
[08:09] <Fryguy--> amirman: he was asking for someone to help him with a problem.  did you read his entire statement?
[08:09] <ziggy_> ziggy@ziggy-desktop:~/AWN$ /Installs/avant
[08:09] <ziggy_> bash: /Installs/avant: No such file or directory
[08:10] <Fryguy--> ziggy_: just install it from ubuntus repository
[08:10] <lances> the sites still work from the gateway machine but no longer work to the natted machines behind it...
[08:10] <bazhang_> !awn
[08:10] <ziggy_> iggy@ziggy-desktop:~$ bzr checkout http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~awn-core/awn/trunk avant-window-navigator
[08:10] <unop> ziggy_, are you reading me?
[08:10] <ziggy_> bzr: ERROR: Unknown branch format: 'Bazaar pack repository format 1 (needs bzr 0.92)\n'
[08:10] <lances> it only affects some IPv4 sites but not all
[08:10] <bazhang_> ziggy_, any reason not install from repos
[08:10] <amirman> Fryguy--: the metaquestion factoid would have been more appropraite
[08:10] <ziggy_> yes
[08:10] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> <i need coffee, brb
[08:10] <ziggy_> i just wanted to show you that
[08:11] <Fryguy--> amirman: up for interpretation.  Is there a specific point to this?
[08:11] <ziggy_> what repos
[08:11] <rand0m> how can I make sure sure I am using the most up-to-date versions of Gnome
[08:11] <ziggy_> what is that
[08:11] <bazhang_> !repos | ziggy_
[08:11] <holycow> official ubuntu storage points of software
[08:11] <Fryguy--> amirman: he used the word "anyone" so I used the factoid anyone.  You are free to cause your own triggers if you would like
[08:11] <holycow> debian and ubuntu come with VAST libraries of free software
[08:11] <Fryguy--> rand0m: you don't, ubuntu makes that decision for you
[08:11] <holycow> ziggy_: this isn't windows,you don't usually hunt for random software on websites
[08:11] <rand0m> oh ok
[08:12] <lances> the strangest part is if I remove the sixxs tunnel from /etc/network/interfaces it no longer breaks certain IPv4 sites for the boxes behind the firewall.
[08:12] <lances> anyone have any ideas?
[08:12] <s3a> rand0m: type gdm --version in terminal and check the gnome website to see if the version u have is the latest
[08:12] <clee-saan> Fryguy--: i installed flashplugin-nonfree, it's still not working. There is a blank space where the video should be
[08:12] <Flannel> rand0m: Just make sure you're up to date with the Ubuntu repos (update manager will let you know)
[08:12] <Fryguy--> clee-saan: did you restart firefox
[08:12] <vlt> Hello. I installed Ubuntu 8.04. When I run `firefox` as user it doesn't start. I don't get any error message. Running as root works. Any idea what could be missing?
[08:12] <clee-saan> I did not
[08:12] <s3a> can someone help me compile plz?
[08:13] <ziggy_> aww man i thought i was running Leppord  10.5
[08:13] <ziggy_> x86
[08:13] <ziggy_> Lmao
[08:13] <Fryguy--> vlt: do you have plugins or anything installed?
[08:13] <bazhang_> clee-saan, what does about:plugins show in ff address bar
[08:13] <unop> holycow, it isn't his fault, someone suggested using the PPA to get the latest AWN
[08:13] <bazhang_> s3a, compile what
[08:13] <holycow> unop: ah, i see
[08:14] <s3a> bazhang_: ice cat 3
[08:14] <NemesisD> ugh, do you guys know how to get whatever process has a lock on alsa/pulseaudio/whatever to release it? this is becoming a real problem for me
[08:15] <s3a> bazhang_: i cded to the extracted tar archive then did ./configure and that alredy gave me an error
[08:15] <unop> s3a, icecat appears to be for debian only - do you have a specific reason for building it ?
[08:15] <s3a> unop: iceweasel is for debian
[08:15] <Fryguy--> s3a: need to know what the error is
[08:15] <LSD|Ninja> iceweasel is a joke
[08:15] <vlt> Fryguy--: Good idea ... I'll check. Maybe the plugins I installed when it ran as root created some files that are not readable for the user. Thank you ...
[08:16] <s3a> Fryguy--: http://pastebin.com/d620f8eea
[08:16] <Fryguy--> s3a: so then there is no configure script.  try 'make'
[08:16] <lances> anyone have any ideas why simply activating an IPv6 tunnel, and not even providing IPv6 connectivity to clients behind the gateway would break connectivity to certain websites for clients behind the gateway but the sites work fine on the gateway itself?
[08:16] <Fryguy--> s3a: or read the README that is in that directory, or INSTALL
[08:16] <Fryguy--> s3a: source almost always comes with documentation about how to compile it
[08:16] <arooni-mobile> whats a good fast launcher for ubuntu (you type a few letters of the name of the program you want to launch & it auto launches it)?
[08:17] <digitaltao> o_O anyone know of a good dreamweaver replacement for ubuntu?
[08:17] <Fryguy--> arooni-mobile: gnome-do
[08:17] <unop> s3a, are you sure the contents of the tarball were extracted properly ..  ls -l *
[08:17] <unop> arooni-mobile, gmrun
[08:17] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> if it doesnt have documents, it is not a good ideal to use it
[08:17] <arooni-mobile> what do you folks think of deskbar?
[08:18] <arooni-mobile> it seems to hav ea feature like that;  but its wayyyy slow
[08:18] <Fryguy--> arooni-mobile: try it and see if you like it
[08:18] <Fryguy--> arooni-mobile: so then don't use it, you've been given other options
[08:19] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> takes some time to get use to gnome
[08:19] <bazhang> !equivalents | digitaltao look here
[08:19] <lances> anyone able to help me with the IPv6 breaking NATing on certain websites over IPv4?
[08:19] <digitaltao> sweet action baz ;D
[08:19] <vlt> Hello. How can I install a Firefox Plugin for all users?
[08:19] <Fryguy--> vlt: you can't
[08:19] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> sorry lance, never got that far with networking
[08:20] <Flannel> vlt: Which plugin?
[08:20] <bazhang> lances, also ask in #networking
[08:20] <jakeg> anyone here use VMWare with a Ubuntu host and get timeout messages all the time?
[08:20] <lances> hmm... it's the damndest thing...
[08:20] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> usuallly they are shared if user us sharing same apps link vlt
[08:20] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> disagree fry
[08:20] <Fryguy--> PROTECT_YA_NECK: yah
[08:20] <Fryguy--> i'm wrong
[08:20] <vlt> Fryguy--: Are the plugin files stored in the user's .mozilla dir?
[08:20] <Fryguy--> i'm referring to addons
[08:20] <vlt> Flannel: NO_SCRIPT for example
[08:20] <arooni-mobile> Fryguy--, what key binding do you use for gnome-do ?
[08:20] <arooni-mobile> i very much like gnome-do ... great suggestion
[08:20] <lances> if I simply remove the tunnel from /etc/network/interfaces it no longer breaks the sites for clients behind the gateway...
[08:21] <Fryguy--> vlt: addons are stored on a per user basis in the users .mozilla or .firefox directory
[08:21] <lances> any ideas on where to ask?
[08:21] <Flannel> vlt: sudo apt-get install mozilla-noscript
[08:21] <Anza> how can I install windows xp on Virtualbox?
[08:21] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> networking irc if there is one
[08:21] <Fryguy--> Anza: see the virtualbox wiki for documentation
[08:21] <bazhang> ##networking
[08:21] <Fryguy--> Anza: just mount the cd and boot it
[08:21] <amirman> if you use the cp command does it automatically overwrite?
[08:21] <lances> thanks, I'll try that room.
[08:22] <Fryguy--> amirman: yes, by default, use -i if you don't want that behavior
[08:22] <bleck_work> thought i'd ask here too... i have a script that runs for about 5 hours.. if I run it manually, it completes successfully, if i run it from /etc/crontab, it runs about 1/4 way through and terminates without error.. just thinking cron may be terminating it.. anyone know if cron has like a process timeout or anything?
[08:22] <Fryguy--> amirman: see 'man cp' for more usage options
[08:22] <amirman> Fryguy--: thanks
[08:22] <vlt> Flannel: Aaah, thank you.
[08:22] <s3a> unop: icecat-3.0-g1-i386.tar.bz2 i right clicked and selected extract
[08:22] <Fryguy--> bleck_work: no
[08:22] <Anza> Fryguy--, I selected the .iso in that part of CD-DVD ROM
[08:22] <unop> s3a, do a ls in the directory to verify
[08:23] <bleck_work> Fryguy--: any idea what it could be? it fails every single time in cron and works every single time normally
[08:23] <s3a> unop: u mean just type ls in terminal?
[08:23] <amirman> anyone have any idea what the .asoundrc stuff on here is for http://wvarner.blogspot.com/2008/05/firefox-crashing-on-youtube-in-ubuntu.html i'm thinking i should remove it since a lot of people have no problems with flash when they don't add it but i would love to know what it is.
[08:23] <Fryguy--> bleck_work: no
[08:23] <bleck_work> Fryguy--: I see...
[08:23] <unop> s3a, yes
[08:23] <bleck_work> hmm.. i guess i'll try using at.
[08:24] <s3a> unop: http://pastebin.com/d2a84c902
[08:24] <bleck_work> ok, thanks anyways..
[08:24] <amirman> for clarification i added that stuff when i installed flash 10 beta and i just installed flash 10 beta 2
[08:25] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> <i am still using flash 9
[08:25] <unop> s3a, try this   ./run-icecat.sh
[08:25] <kerin> Reiterating:  apologize for the spam, it's been longer than fifteen minutes so I shall try not to feel too guilty.  ;p
[08:25] <kerin> I'm using Hardy (fully updated) and for some reason Wine won't report the size of my home partition (which is the partition my wine drive is on!) - however, it reports the root and NTFS partition sizes perfectly.  Any ideas?
[08:26] <vlt> Flannel: Is there a list of system-wide installable FF plugins somewhere?
[08:26] <unop> vlt, /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins
[08:26] <Fryguy--> vlt: apt-cache search firefox should should them to you
[08:26] <Flannel> vlt: You'd have to just search for them in synaptic
[08:26] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> kerin: wine is not reporting full size of home directory (assumed to be ext3), is the directory rather large?
[08:27] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> kerin, have you tryed to link your home directory to a file?
[08:27] <Flannel> vlt: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=mozilla&searchon=names&suite=hardy&section=all  a not all of them are plugins, obviously.
[08:27] <clee-saan> bazhang: Shockwave Flash  File name: libgnashplugin.so
[08:27] <vlt> Flannel: Thanks.
[08:27] <clee-saan> it's still not working
[08:27] <Fryguy--> clee-saan: uninstall gnash
[08:27] <s3a> unop: it got launched, asked if i wanted to import stuff from other browser and i said no then next step it looked like it was gona start and it crashed instead and i checked applications--->internet and its not there (http://pastebin.com/d188e02d5)
[08:28] <Fryguy--> clee-saan: and install flashplugin-nonfree
[08:28] <bazhang> clee-saan, that is gnash not flash uninstall it
[08:28] <clee-saan> okay
[08:28] <digitaltao> what is gnash o_O
[08:28] <digitaltao> gnu flash?
[08:28] <clee-saan> what is the remove command again ? apt-remove gnash ?
[08:28] <s3a> digitaltao: gnome flash i think
[08:28] <unop> s3a, try again
[08:28] <Fryguy--> digitaltao: yes
[08:28] <kerin> PROTECT_YA_NECK: 1) it's rather large in total, something like 200gb.  at the moment i have 9.4 gb left, though.  the program's World of Warcraft, though, and it's pretty recent so i didn't think it would be susceptible.  2) link it how?  not sure I understand.)
[08:28] <s3a> clee-saan: sudo apt-get remove gnash
[08:28] <Fryguy--> s3a: gnu flash
[08:28] <amirman> clee-saan: apt-get remove
[08:29] <clee-saan> right
[08:29] <s3a> Fryguy--: then is there a knash or sumtin like that?
[08:29] <Fryguy--> s3a: no
[08:29] <Fryguy--> s3a: gnu flash, not gnome flash
[08:29] <Sn3ipen> I have to reinstall Ubuntu because of some partitioning problems: So i wonder if i can simply just take a backup of the /home/username/ folder and put it back when i am done?
[08:29] <s3a> Fryguy--: well i saw sumtin like that anyway im not fighting since im not sure anyway
[08:29] <Fryguy--> Sn3ipen: yes
[08:30] <Anza> Fryguy--, I dont see how ¿?
[08:30] <Fryguy--> Anza: look at the virtualbox wiki for details
[08:30] <Sn3ipen> Fryguy-- thanks for the quick answer :)
[08:30] <s3a> unop: try again the same same command?
[08:30] <bazhang> http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/User_FAQ Anza
[08:31] <Anza> Fryguy--, I am looking and there is nothing that explains the process, there is just general info about it
[08:31]  * unop is not convinced gnash stands for Gnu Flash
[08:31] <unop> s3a, yes
[08:31] <bazhang> also see #vbox
[08:31] <rand0m> ... i have awn installed, but when i try to open it, i see a little white box flash on the screen, then disappear and nothing happens.. anyone know what's going on ?
[08:31] <s3a> unop: it launched for a split second then crashed
[08:32] <clee-saan> Fryguy--: unistalled gnash, but it says i already have flashplugin nonfree. It also said that i could uninstall "libboost-date-time1.34.1 gnash-common" because i didn't need it anymore
[08:32] <unop> s3a, any errors ?
[08:32] <clee-saan> and youtube's still not working
[08:32] <mephux> anyone know what that program was called for like key strokes and searching?
[08:32] <mephux> i forgot.. looks like quicksilver for the max
[08:32] <mephux> mac*
[08:32] <Fryguy--> mephux: gnome-do
[08:32] <s3a> unop: ya the same error as the last pastebin i sent u
[08:33] <Fryguy--> clee-saan: did you restart firefox after remvoing gnash
[08:33] <mephux> nice
[08:33] <unop> s3a, sounds like a bug and you might need to contact the authors or find some technical reference that details this error
[08:33] <unop> s3a, what's wrong with firefox anyway? :)
[08:33] <clee-saan> i restarted it after trying to install flashplugin (i couldn't do it though, it says i already have the latest verion)
[08:33] <mephux> Fryguy--, know of any good terminal replacements..?
[08:33] <cri^tmen_sms> hi
[08:33] <Fryguy--> mephux: urxvt
[08:34] <zoidfarb> cri^tmen_sms, hi, do you have a question?
[08:34] <Fryguy--> clee-saan: and what does about:plugins tell you about flash plugin now
[08:34] <s3a> s3a: well i want a fully free browser and not to mention there is no firefox3 in ubuntu 7.04 (cuz im on my laptop now) and plus i rely want to be a fully free person
[08:34] <clee-saan> Fryguy--: it says i have shockwave player and futuresplash player
[08:35] <Fryguy--> clee-saan: which shockwave player
[08:35] <arooni-mobile> is there a *fast* way (faster than ctrl + tab) method of quickly switching through tabs in firefox?
[08:36] <clee-saan> Fryguy--: application/x-shockwave-flash 	Shockwave Flash
[08:36] <jc__> unop: ok we've figured out that its the monitor that has issues going above 60 htz so we're editing the xorg.conf
[08:36] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> i cant believe how rude people are in here considering the free information they are receiving
[08:36] <zoidfarb> arooni-mobile, I think you can use the arrow keys
[08:36] <zoidfarb> arooni, at least, that works for me
[08:36] <ikonia> PROTECT_YA_NECK: who was rude ?
[08:36] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> kerin
[08:37] <zoidfarb> PROTECT_YA_NECK, I just got here, but I rarely see people being really rude.
[08:37] <jlulian38> How well would 433MHz x86-compatible AMD processor, armed with an amazing 256MB of ram, and moving data over a USB 2.0 (AMAZING PIPELINE) work for a CIFS fileserver :|
[08:37] <Flannel> arooni-mobile: ctrl-#
[08:37] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> something dumb about wine config
[08:37] <bazhang> try #bash :)
[08:37] <Fryguy--> jlulian38: should be fine
[08:37] <unop> jc__, no, xorg is loading the wrong module (vesa) - you need it to load the nvidia driver
[08:37] <lances> ﻿Hi, I'm hoping you all can help me with a very strange problem that I've run into. If I add an IPv6 tunnel to /etc/network/interfaces, without even enabling radvd, it breaks connectivity to certain websites to some of my NATed IPv4 clients although the affected sites work just fine from the gateway machine. The sites also work fine if I configure my clients to use an alternate gateway.
[08:37] <Fryguy--> jlulian38: would probably max out 100mbps
[08:37] <zoidfarb> jlulian38, it would probably work fine, but Ubuntu ain't the distro for that system
[08:37] <ikonia> PROTECT_YA_NECK: I've just read the last log - he's not being rude
[08:38] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> irc moderator?
[08:38] <ikonia> PROTECT_YA_NECK: what does that have to do with anything he asked a question that he was finding complicated
[08:38] <arooni-mobile> Flannel, alt + # seems to work ; but not control
[08:38] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> i wasnt making a formal complaint
[08:38] <ikonia> PROTECT_YA_NECK: I didn't say you where, but he was not being rude, he asked a straightforward question
[08:39] <jlulian38> zoidfarb, I meant Ubuntu Server Edition(I dare say that has much lower system requirements)
[08:39] <Fryguy--> jlulian38: should find another distro prolly
[08:39] <zoidfarb> whatever, sometimes people are frustrated/new to Linux/act like more of jerks than they mean to
[08:39] <Fryguy--> jlulian38: you can try it though
[08:39] <PROTECT_YA_NECK> it is rude to assume information is misleading if you dont know the answer to the question in the first place
[08:39] <jc__> unop: We're using the last xorg.conf file again and yes that one lists that the driver is nvidia, is is there something else we should to do assure that the nvidia driver is being used?
[08:39] <ikonia> zoidfarb: no-one is acting like a jerk in here
[08:39] <ogzy> which command is executed when i diable the Enabple Wireless option at the nm-applet, making wireless adapter down doesn't change the status of the nm-applet and i dont want to rmmod the wireless module
[08:40] <ikonia> PROTECT_YA_NECK: he didn't, he was having problems understanding it, if you re-read his comments
[08:40] <unop> jc__, does it say Driver "nvidia"
[08:40] <bazhang> lets take the rudeness to #ubuntu-offtopic :)
[08:40] <unop> ?
[08:40] <jc__> unop: yes now it does
[08:40] <zoidfarb> jlulian38, there are lots of distros geared specifically toward low-end systems, I would check one of those out (although you're right that Ubuntu server will be a lot lighter than full desktop Ubuntu)
[08:40] <digitaltao> Hey guys, my monitor is not being recognized inside of system > prefs > screen resolution. However the Nvidia X server recognizes it fine. I think there might be some sort of clash occurring because the Nvidia app correctly has the refresh rate set at 60hz while "Screen resolution" only has 66hz 67hz and 50hz available. any ideas gentlemen?
[08:40] <Fryguy--> jlulian38: freebsd is nice
[08:40] <jlulian38> :F
[08:40] <jlulian38> I like my apt-get
[08:40] <LSD|Ninja> digitaltao: that resolution control panel blows
[08:41] <unop> jc__, you can examine /var/log/Xorg.log.0 to see which driver it loads exactly -- also, there might be other issues  that you should spot
[08:41] <Fryguy--> jlulian38: packages and ports are nice as well
[08:41] <zoidfarb> digitaltao, have you looked at your xorg.conf file yet? what resolutions are available there?
[08:41] <LSD|Ninja> digitaltao: run sudo displayconfig-gtk for something slightly better
[08:41] <jc__> unop: ok we'll check that
[08:41] <jlulian38> I still have to go buy stuff so I can use my hard drive, and install to a system without a CD-Rom drive
[08:42] <jlulian38> so I guess I'll look into it until then
[08:43] <lances> unfortunatly I don't see an ubuntu-networking channel and I really need help with this IPv6 tunnel breaking IPv4 NATing problem. Does anyone have any sugestions as to where I could ask for help?
[08:43] <Sn3ipen> how big should i have the "/" directory when partitioning because want to have separate "/" and "/home" directories?
[08:43] <jc__> unop: what specifically should I look for in the log to see which driver is being loaded?
[08:43] <ikonia> lances: #netfilter, #iptables
[08:43] <bazhang> lances, just ##networking
[08:44] <Fryguy--> Sn3ipen: 10gb is plenty
[08:44] <timandtom> In my System Monitor, my CPU History is kind of odd... I have a dual core Intel, and sometimes I might have one core at 100%, while the other core idles. Is there any way to make it more efficient?
[08:44] <digitaltao> LSD|Ninja: displayconfig is alot better thanks, same problem with the refresh rate however
[08:44] <Sn3ipen> Fryguy-- thabks that is what i thought
[08:44] <digitaltao> I am checking my xorg.conf right now
[08:44] <Fryguy--> timandtom: the linux kernel does as optimal a job as it can at scheduling processes already.
[08:44] <lances> thanks... I must have made a type the last time I tried to connect to the netowkring channel.
[08:45] <bazhang> np
[08:45] <LSD|Ninja> digitaltao: yeah, it hasn't been fully updated for Hardy it would seem. It worked a treat in Gutsy though.
[08:45] <Fryguy--> timandtom: not every process (in fact most) aren't able to use more than 1 core
[08:45] <unop> jc__, i wish i could tell you - there is no easy way, try and make sense of what xorg is doing there - if you get something like "autoconfiguring for vesa" that's a bad thing
[08:45] <LSD|Ninja> digitaltao: I still make a note to point it out to people because when it works, it's better than anything else Ubuntu provide
[08:45] <timandtom> Fryguy--, Ah, ok. Thanks. Switching to 8.04 from 7.10 wouldn't help me then?
[08:45] <Fryguy--> timandtom: no
[08:45] <bazhang> digitaltao, should be gksudo not sudo
[08:46] <LSD|Ninja> bazhang: it doesn't really matter
[08:46] <bazhang> LSD|Ninja, that is not correct.
[08:46] <jc__> unop: :) ok i'll look through it and past it if it doesn't make sense
[08:46] <timandtom> Fryguy--, sweeeeet. I tried 8.04 before, wasn't pleasant for me.
[08:46] <LSD|Ninja> All gk does is put the password prompt in a nice looking dialog box
[08:47] <digitaltao> LSD|Ninja: it seems that the res/refresh is inside the xorg, " modeline  "1680x1050@60" 147.14 1680 1784 1968 2256 1050 1051 1054 1087 "
[08:47] <Fryguy--> LSD|Ninja: which is handy if you are doing it from something like the alt-f2 dialog and don't have a visible way to interact with stdin, whicih is how sudo expects to receive it's password
[08:47] <unop> jc__, also good reference would be.   man xorg.conf
[08:47] <bazhang> !gksudo | LSD|Ninja
[08:47] <Obi_Bong_Kedoobi> (.Y.)
[08:48] <david_> i need some help
[08:48] <Fryguy--> !ask | david_
[08:48] <bazhang> Obi_Bong_Kedoobi, not here
[08:48] <ikonia> david_: what's up
[08:48] <arooni-mobile> how do i scroll up/down quickly in the gnome-terminal?
[08:48] <Fryguy--> arooni-mobile: use the mouse wheel
[08:48] <Fryguy--> arooni-mobile: or enable the scrollbar in the menu and use that
[08:48] <Obi_Bong_Kedoobi> woops, this isnt offtopic
[08:48] <Fryguy--> arooni-mobile: shift-pageup and down probably work too
[08:48] <arooni-mobile> Fryguy--, no short cuts for keys?
[08:48] <iain> anyone work with UNIXodbc?
[08:48] <david_> i installed xubuntu, and I want to see my ntfs disk
[08:48] <Fryguy--> !anyone | iain
[08:49] <Fryguy--> david_: so mount it
[08:49] <Fryguy--> david_: btw join #xubuntu
[08:49] <iain> david_: its under host I think
[08:49] <david_> ok, thanks
[08:49] <iain> No its a subdirecory
[08:50] <iain> Im not booted into ubuntu right now or I would give you the path
[08:50] <Lava> how, i'm looking for a good program in hardy heron to burn cd's
[08:51] <Fryguy--> Lava: brasero
[08:51] <negge^> Lava: isn't brasero good enough?
[08:51] <iain> its listed like a host as if describing the hosting FS but if you read the root directories you will read one that 'host' I think
[08:51] <jc__> unop: protect_ya_neck: thanks for all the help with xorg
[08:52] <iain> anyone here using UNIXodbc?
[08:52] <Lava> aight, thanks Fryguy-- & negge
[08:52] <Fryguy--> iain: do you have a specific question about it
[08:52] <iain> Yea, I having issues with the currect bas install, trying to get it to connect to mysql
[08:53] <iain> Can I post the error that it gives or do I need a post site and past the url here
[08:53] <ikonia> iain: better to use a pastebin
[08:53] <jc__> thanks everyone, this is a great and helpful group!
[08:53] <ikonia> !pastebin | iain

[08:53] <dunkel2> hi guys i am looking for some help, i am trying to install my network drivers in ubuntu 7.04 x64
[08:53] <iain> ok
[08:53] <Fryguy--> !ask | dunkel2
[08:53] <dunkel2> but it says something about i cant write in catman mode
[08:53] <dunkel2> can you please help me
[08:53] <[Michelangelo]> Hi all, Anybody knows the error 14 after the reboot of the pc ?
[08:54] <Fryguy--> dunkel2: need a specific error
[08:54] <dunkel2> let me see
[08:54] <[Michelangelo]> Warning: unrecognized partition table for drive 81. please rebuild it using a microsoft-compatible FDISK tool (err = 14).
[08:54] <[Michelangelo]> Current c/h/s = 16383/225/63
[08:54] <dunkel2> cannot write to /var/cache/man/cat7/e1000.7.gz in catman mode
[08:54] <dunkel2> thats the error i get while running the make install
[08:55] <Fryguy--> dunkel2: did you sudo
[08:55] <laughtear> i need someone to help me install f-prot antivirus i686 on my ubuntu hardy heron
[08:55] <digitaltao> is there a way to turn on mouse trails?
[08:55] <dunkel2> i have read some forums but i cant get the solution :S
[08:55] <laughtear> it's downloaded and on my desktop
[08:55] <dunkel2> yes i did
[08:56] <iain> well its not a full log file list, its just a simple error - ODBC Config error - System DSN -ADD : Could not construct a property List for (Mysql)
[08:56] <blackrabbit> digitaltao, I have a method but it involves eating something
[08:56] <ikonia> dunkel2: does that directory exist
[08:57] <digitaltao> blackrabbit: ;) if you supply i will eat it
[08:57] <ikonia> iain: what is the client ?
[08:57] <iain> I have even edited the odbcinst.ini as per the manual
[08:57] <ikonia> iain: what is the client ?
[08:57] <blackrabbit> digitaltao, of what benefit are mouse trails anyway?
[08:57] <iain> I have not gotten that far yet, still setting up UNIXodbc service
[08:57] <dunkel2> yes
[08:57] <dunkel2> it is empty
[08:57] <ikonia> iain: you must have a client to be testing it, or you wouldn't know it didn't work
[08:58] <digitaltao> blackrabbit: when I have my contacts out it makes the mouse a little easier to follow
[08:58] <negge^> laughtear: you don't need an antivirus
[08:58] <laughtear> negge^: yes i need to clean the ntfs partitions to save my old private files dude
[08:58] <iain> Then its the ODBCConfig itself at this point
[08:59] <laughtear> negge^: so, i need a hand
[08:59] <iain> Trying to setup a System DNS service to allow a client to connect from a remote system
[08:59] <digitaltao> so is there anyway to enable mouse trails ? o_O or is it considered by most to be a useless function therefore not supported?
[09:00] <Fryguy--> digitaltao: might be an option for it in compizconfig-settings-manager
[09:00] <ziggy_> does any one want to remote to vnc to help me fix my problem?
[09:00] <ikonia> ziggy_: just ask the question
[09:00] <zaapiel> any games in ubuntu repos you recommend?
[09:00] <iain> Its like I need to register the drivers - the .so files some where so that it can like them into the service to create a onnection
[09:01] <[Michelangelo]> can anybody help me?
[09:01] <Fryguy--> !grub [Michelangelo]
[09:01] <Fryguy--> !grub| [Michelangelo]
[09:02] <[Michelangelo]> Fryguy, what can I do?
[09:02] <Fryguy--> [Michelangelo]: read those links
[09:02] <[Michelangelo]> Fryguy, ok
[09:02] <laughtear> anybody can tell me how to move a file in terminal to another place
[09:02] <ziggy_>  HOW TO: get Kiba-Dock running correctly
[09:02] <Fryguy--> laughtear: use mv
[09:02] <dunkel2> then guys :(
[09:02] <dunkel2> i really want to use my ubuntu on internet heheehe
[09:02] <laughtear> Fryguy--: can you give a little example?
[09:02] <negge^> laughtear: if you're just gonna get some files from your old partition you just have to mount the drive and copy them, no need for any antivirus
[09:03] <Fryguy--> laughtear: mv file newlocation
[09:03] <Fryguy--> laughtear: check out man mv for usage details
[09:03] <laughtear> negge': so, leave the viruses even if you're sure there they are you say
[09:03] <laughtear> thanks Fryguy--
[09:03] <ziggy_> fry guy was helping me last
[09:03] <negge^> laughtear: okay I see
[09:04] <[Michelangelo]> Fryguy the main problem is the RAID configuration of the Laptop
[09:04] <negge^> laughtear: search the repos for some virus scanner, I'm sure there's some there
[09:04] <Fryguy--> ziggy_: http://mathpages.blogspot.com/2008/04/installing-kiba-dock-in-ubuntu-hardy.html
[09:04] <ikonia> [Michelangelo]: raid on a laptop?
[09:04] <[Michelangelo]> Fryguy yes
[09:04] <enterneo> why is disk usage analyzer using GB instead of GiB, whereby partition editor uses GiB
[09:04] <ikonia> [Michelangelo]: your laptop has multiple internal disks ?
[09:05] <Fryguy--> enterneo: programs written by different people, maybe using different backend libraries
[09:05] <[Michelangelo]> Fryguy http://www.azlan.it/Vendors/Prodotti/80-2007-01-26_3.asp?v=80&S=2&M=0
[09:05] <Fryguy--> [Michelangelo]: why are you telling me
[09:05] <[Michelangelo]> ikonia yes
[09:05] <enterneo> Fryguy--: this is unfair, either all programs should use GiB or GB
[09:05] <ikonia> [Michelangelo]: ahh so it's using fakeraid
[09:05] <Fryguy--> enterneo: so file a bug in launchpad
[09:05] <digitaltao> nope, no mouse trails inside of  compizconfig-settings-manager
[09:05] <[Michelangelo]> ikonia Fryguy I am using the wubi installer
[09:05] <Fryguy--> digitaltao: you sure
[09:06] <Fryguy--> [Michelangelo]: why not just use the real installer
[09:06] <[Michelangelo]> ikonia Fryguy after the reboot appear that error
[09:06] <[Michelangelo]> ikonia Fryguy I would like to reserve the Vista OS
[09:06] <digitaltao> pretty sure Fryguy
[09:06] <Fryguy--> [Michelangelo]: so?
[09:06] <Fryguy--> [Michelangelo]: why not just use the regular installer
[09:06] <ikonia> Fryguy--: from what I'm reading it's using fakeraid which will cause him issues (looking at the spec
[09:06] <ikonia> )
[09:07] <[Michelangelo]> ikonia Fryguy the problem after the partitioning of the RAID 0
[09:07] <laughtear> negge^: i already done it by installing clam, but it can not find the viruses which i know there.
[09:07] <Fryguy--> ikonia: a livecd is going to cause him far less problems than wubi
[09:07] <[Michelangelo]> ikonia Fryguy when I try to do it in the normal installer
[09:07] <ikonia> [Michelangelo]: yes, I can appriciate that, fakeraid is not a wise install
[09:07] <[Michelangelo]> ikonia Fryguy show me two hd
[09:07] <dunkel2> i also did modprobe
[09:07] <[Michelangelo]> ikonia Fryguy not only one
[09:07] <ikonia> Fryguy--: ooh I agree, either way I think he's in for a very frsutrating time with not only fake raid, but fake raid 0
[09:07]  * Fryguy-- wonders why so many people use raid for system drives
[09:07] <dunkel2> and i see the name of the NIC
[09:08] <ikonia> Fryguy--: fake raid = poor, raid 0 = pointless on home user kit
[09:08] <Fryguy--> dunkel2: what is the network card you are using
[09:08] <dunkel2> no... is other command i cant remember
[09:08] <ikonia> Fryguy--: a total waste
[09:08] <dunkel2> it is an intel card
[09:08] <Fryguy--> dunkel2: wired?
[09:08] <dunkel2> motherboard integrated
[09:08] <Fryguy--> dunkel2: why are you compiling drivers for it?
[09:08] <[Michelangelo]> ikonia Fryguy and If I try to install Ubuntu on one of them I suppose that the vista crash
[09:08] <c0nfl|ct>  bom dia
[09:09] <dunkel2> because it doesnt set the drivers
[09:09] <dunkel2> i dont have internet
[09:09] <ikonia> [Michelangelo]: yes, if you partition one of the individual drives, your fake raid device will be corrupted
[09:09] <Fryguy--> dunkel2: do you have an interface in ifconfig -a
[09:09] <[Michelangelo]> ikonia Fryguy so, how can I do?
[09:10] <dunkel2> it says Local Loopback
[09:10] <digitaltao> all right another mouse related question, anyone know how to make it so when i click in the mouse wheel I can scroll inside of applications?
[09:10] <dunkel2> 127.0.0.1
[09:10] <dunkel2> but i dont have the eth0
[09:10] <ikonia> [Michelangelo]: not use fake raid is the best solution, as a secondary solution don't use raid 0 for a root disk technology
[09:10] <ziggy_> E: Type 'sudo' is not known on line 58 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:10] <ziggy_> E: The list of sources could not be read.
[09:10] <ziggy_> ziggy@ziggy-desktop:~$
[09:10] <ziggy_> when i run the install command
[09:11] <ziggy_> First of all you need to make sure you have all the required packages. Type the following in the Terminal:
[09:11] <iain> Hmm - let me rephase my question for UNIXodbc - after installing the drivers (libmyodbc5.so and libmyodbc3s.so) to the /usr/lib is there a step before using the ODBCConfig to set the drivers so I can create a data source DNS either as a System DNS or a User DNS?
[09:11] <negge^> ziggy_: somethings wrong with your sources.list file
[09:11] <[Michelangelo]> ikonia Fryguy I think that my RAID is not a fake but a real RAID
[09:11] <ziggy_> how would i go abouts fixing that?
[09:11] <ikonia> [Michelangelo]: no - it's a fake raid driver
[09:11] <Fryguy--> [Michelangelo]: almost certainly not
[09:12] <Fryguy--> ziggy_: what did you type in terminal
[09:12] <ziggy_> its to big to put in here
[09:12] <Shiba1> hi all
[09:12] <Fryguy--> !pastebin | ziggy_
[09:12] <ziggy_> http://mathpages.blogspot.com/2008/04/installing-kiba-dock-in-ubuntu-hardy.html
[09:12] <ziggy_> first commaqnd
[09:13] <dunkel2> Fryguy--: you mean if i have something like eth0 or eth1 ?
[09:13] <Fryguy--> ziggy_: ok, the first command is fine
[09:13] <laughtear> okay, how wiil i get the install-f-prot.pl file start work as a sudo in terminal?
[09:13] <Fryguy--> dunkel2: yes. so apparently you need to compile a driver, googling for "ubuntu e1000" returns quite a few results
[09:13] <ziggy_> it says this when i paste it subversion
[09:13] <ziggy_> E: Type 'sudo' is not known on line 58 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:13] <ziggy_> E: The list of sources could not be read
[09:14] <Fryguy--> ziggy_: did you paste it correctly
[09:14] <ziggy_> yes ser
[09:14] <laughtear> okay, how wiil i get the install-f-prot.pl file start work as a sudo in terminal?
[09:14] <dunkel2> Fryguy--: i h¿got a driver but when i try to 'make install' it i got an error
[09:14] <Fryguy--> ziggy_: are you sure
[09:14] <ziggy_> i can do it agin just to make sure bro
[09:14] <[Michelangelo]> ikonia Fryguy Intel(R) 82801G (ICH7 Family) Ultra ATA Storage Controllers - 27DF
[09:14] <ikonia> [Michelangelo]: yes, I've read the spec, it's a fakeraid card
[09:15] <[Michelangelo]> ikonia Fryguy so it is hardware card
[09:15] <dunkel2> Fryguy--: this error cannot write to /var/cache/man/cat7/e1000.7.gz in catman mode
[09:15] <[Michelangelo]> not software
[09:15] <Fryguy--> [Michelangelo]: it's a fakeraid card
[09:15] <ziggy_> yes i'm sure
[09:15] <djhash> ziggy_: type this.. "more /etc/apt/sources.list" and paste the output into pastebin
[09:15] <ikonia> [Michelangelo]: no it's not
[09:15] <Fryguy--> ziggy_: then you broke your sources.list file somehow, you'll need to manually edit it back to a working state
[09:15] <ikonia> [Michelangelo]: its a software driver based raid, designed for windows
[09:16] <nagyv> hello! often after using watching a flash video in Firefox, my soundcard doesn't work any more outside of Firefox. How can I fix this?
[09:16] <ziggy_> where is the past bin located?
[09:16] <djhash> !pastebin | ziggy_
[09:16] <ziggy_> ok did that
[09:16] <Fryguy--> nagyv: create a file in /etc/firefox-3/ called firefoxrc and put FIREFOX_DSP=aoss and then sudo apt-get install alsa-oss and restart firefox
[09:16] <nagyv> Fryguy--: thanks
[09:16] <djhash> after you paste.. and submit just copy the address from the address bar and paste it here

[09:17] <[Michelangelo]> ikonia Fryguy damn me!
[09:17] <[Michelangelo]> ikonia Fryguy and now?
[09:17] <ziggy_>  !pastebin | ziggy_ wtf?
[09:18] <djhash> ziggy_: dont paste it here.. you'll get blocked for spamming..  go to http://paste.ubuntu.com
[09:18] <Fryguy--> [Michelangelo]: you install the fakeraid drivers from somewhere, or use something like the alternate install cd to do what you need
[09:18] <ziggy_> ok
[09:18] <ikonia> [Michelangelo]: I've given you the two most realistic options
[09:19] <[Michelangelo]> ikonia Fryguy:  use something like the alternate install cd to do what you need?
[09:19] <ikonia> [Michelangelo]: I don't believe that will work either
[09:19] <ziggy_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/25639/
[09:19] <ikonia> [Michelangelo]: your system disk layout is flawed
[09:19] <ziggy_> i think i did it right
[09:19] <dunkel2> when i run lsmod i get this         e1000 191552 0
[09:20] <dunkel2> in Used By it says 0
[09:20] <ikonia> dunkel2: thats the driver
[09:20] <ikonia> dunkel2: it's loaded
[09:20] <idefix_> what does the command rpm -ivh `pwd`/$RPM_NAME do?
[09:20] <Fryguy--> ziggy_: cat /etc/apt/sources.list and paste that
[09:20] <dunkel2> but it is not used?
[09:20] <ikonia> idefix_: install an rpm
[09:20] <ikonia> idefix_: but that won't work on an ubuntu system
[09:20] <[Michelangelo]> ikonia Fryguy: really!?
[09:20] <idefix_> right, my computer gives an error on that
[09:20] <digitaltao> question - if I install a new sata drive in my computer will hardy heron automatically detect it?
[09:20] <djhash> ziggy_: yeah do what Fryguy said.. i forgot about cat.. WOW!!!!
[09:20] <ikonia> idefix_: what version of ubuntu are you using ?
[09:20] <dunkel2> lsmod
[09:20] <[Michelangelo]> ikonia Fryguy: so there is no simple way to do it
[09:20] <idefix_> 2.6.15-52-386
[09:20] <ikonia> [Michelangelo]: in my opinion your disk layout is flawed
[09:21] <ikonia> idefix_: thats not an ubuntu version
[09:21] <Fryguy--> idefix_: that is your kernel, what version of ubuntu are you running
[09:21] <ikonia> idefix_: what ubuntu version are you using
[09:21] <idefix_> Dapper Drake
[09:21] <ikonia> idefix_: I don't think your using ubuntu
[09:21] <Fryguy--> idefix_: why are you using rpm?
[09:21] <idefix_> I want to install JAVA
[09:21] <bazhang> idefix_, #fedora
[09:22] <ikonia> idefix_: rpm's are not aimed at ubuntu machines, so shouldn't work
[09:22] <Fryguy--> idefix_: apt-cache search java and then pick the package you need and apt-get install it
[09:22] <[Michelangelo]> ikonia Fryguy: is there a way to disable the ACPI in the wubi install?
[09:22] <ikonia> [Michelangelo]: why does that matter ?
[09:22] <Fryguy--> [Michelangelo]: no idea
[09:22] <Fryguy--> [Michelangelo]: it doesn't affect you anyway
[09:22] <djhash> ziggy_: are you still there?!!
[09:22] <idefix_> ok thx
[09:22] <bazhang> idefix_, please pastebin your sources list
[09:23] <[Michelangelo]> ikonia Fryguy: I would like to try to start the Ubuntu already installed by Wubi passing the option acpi=off
[09:23] <ikonia> [Michelangelo]: it doesn't matter
[09:23] <Fryguy--> [Michelangelo]: why
[09:23] <ikonia> [Michelangelo]: your disk layout will not work
[09:23] <[Michelangelo]> ikonia Fryguy: because after the error 14 it stops at the acpi
[09:23] <ikonia> [Michelangelo]: your not listening
[09:23] <Fryguy--> [Michelangelo]: it has nothing to do with your problem
[09:24] <[Michelangelo]> ikonia Fryguy: maybe if I try
[09:24] <ikonia> [Michelangelo]: no
[09:24] <Stepp1> HI
[09:24] <ikonia> Stepp1: hello
[09:24] <Stepp1> How do I get my wireless working on Fiesty Fawn?
[09:24] <[Michelangelo]> ikonia Fryguy: yes I am listening you but I have to install this Ubuntu
[09:24] <ikonia> Stepp1: ooh a little old, what vard is it
[09:24] <Fryguy--> Stepp1: if it doesn't work out of the box, you install a driver
[09:24] <[Michelangelo]> ikonia Fryguy: in one hour
[09:24] <ziggy_> yes
[09:24] <ikonia> [Michelangelo]: then you would be better formatting your disks in a more realistic layout
[09:25] <ziggy_> i went to make some ribs sorry
[09:25] <ikonia> [Michelangelo]: 1 hour, is not realistic, it's not going to happen
[09:25] <Pizarro> Hi all
[09:25] <djhash> no problem..
[09:25] <[Michelangelo]> ikonia Fryguy: I'll try to do something
[09:25] <dunkel2> well this is impossible for me then :S
[09:25] <Fryguy--> [Michelangelo]: i've told you what to do, either find and install fakeraid drivers on the livecd, or try the alternate installer, or you are out of luck
[09:25] <Stepp1> ikonia: yeah, it's a little old but I don't know how to get the wireless setup.
[09:25] <ikonia> [Michelangelo]: ok, try to do something
[09:25] <djhash> ziggy_: do this "cat /etc/apt/sources.list" then copy and paste into pastebin and send me the link..
[09:25] <ikonia> Stepp1: what wirless card is it ?
[09:25] <ziggy_> /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:25] <ziggy_> ok
[09:25] <Stepp1> Atheros
[09:25] <idefix_> bazhang: my post tripped the pastebin spam filter :S
[09:26] <Stepp1> wait..
[09:26] <Pizarro> I installed Ubuntu thru Wubi, Is ther any tool to configure the screen, the resolutuion, the second screen , the monitor, etc.. I can't find anyon under System>Administration
[09:26] <Fryguy--> Pizarro: should be a screens and graphics menu
[09:26] <Stepp1> can I figure out what wireless card i'm using by using terminal?
[09:26] <Fryguy--> Pizarro: otherwise use aticonfig or nvidia-settings depending on what card you have
[09:26] <Fryguy--> Stepp1: lspci and lsusb
[09:26] <ubunubi> what's the program name for the gnome system monitor?
[09:26] <ikonia> Stepp1: lspci normally gives a solid clue on the chipset
[09:27] <ziggy_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/25640/
[09:27] <ikonia> ubunubi: gnome-system-monitor
[09:27] <ziggy_> thats what it did
[09:27] <Pizarro> Fryguy--, I don't have any Screen menu under System menu, I just installed the Wubi yesterday, so I didn't make any change on the original installation
[09:27] <Fryguy--> ziggy_: cat it
[09:27] <djhash> ziggy_: "cat /etc/apt/sources.list"
[09:27] <Fryguy--> Pizarro: so then use option 2 that i gave you
[09:27] <ziggy_> ok sorry
[09:27] <Pizarro> Fryguy--, How can I do that?
[09:28] <Fryguy--> Pizarro: run ati-config or nvidia-settings, depending on which video card you have.
[09:28] <Fryguy--> Pizarro: or edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf manually
[09:28] <Stepp1> Here is what I have 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetLink BCM5787M Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express (rev 02)
[09:28] <Stepp1> 04:00.0 Ethernet controller: Atheros Communications, Inc. Unknown device 001c (rev 01)
[09:28] <idefix_> which java is best? java2html, javacc, java-common, java-gcj-compat, java-gcj-compat-dev or java-package?
[09:28] <Pizarro> But in general, I realized that I don't have "compelte" tools to set up the windows behaivour, the colors, et..only very simple options
[09:29] <ikonia> Stepp1: if you do an "iwconfig" can you see the card ?
[09:29] <Fryguy--> !broadcom | Stepp1
[09:29] <plouffe> Hi, is there any way to install and control a computer from Ubuntu in my LAN that doesn't have a monitor? (currently XP and FreeBSD installed on it, but don't need to keep that)
[09:29] <Fryguy--> idefix_: java-package probably
[09:29] <ziggy_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/25641/
[09:29] <Fryguy--> plouffe: install openssh server
[09:29] <Stepp1> thanks for the broadcom info
[09:29] <ziggy_> thats what happen next
[09:29] <plouffe> Fryguy thanks I'll look into it
[09:30] <alpac0> hi, how do i play vcd in ubuntu 7.10 gutsy
[09:30] <djhash> ziggy: the last line is your problem.. remove the entire line...
[09:30] <Fryguy--> ziggy_: remove the last line from that file
[09:30]  * Fryguy-- holds back laughter
[09:30] <alpac0> totem does not have the required plugin to playback vcds
[09:31] <neeto> My sound seems to have stopped working. I have restarted alsa-utils, but no cigar. What else could I try?
[09:31] <ziggy_> udo apt-get install fakeroot automake1.9 build-esse <<<< how will i del that
[09:31] <Fryguy--> ziggy_: gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:31] <alpac0> !vcd
[09:32] <neeto> !sound
[09:32] <Pizarro> Fryguy--,solved! I installed the NVDIA X Server Settings and I found more resolutions set ups than the original ones
[09:32] <Pizarro> Fryguy--, thanks
[09:32] <plouffe> Fryguy--: Would I install openssh server on the computer without monitor? And can I do it if it doesn't have a monitor?
[09:33] <ziggy_> ok deleted
[09:33] <Fryguy--> plouffe: you need access to the machine somehow first
[09:33] <Fryguy--> plouffe: then it's just sudo apt-get install openssh-server (i think that's the name of the package)
[09:33] <djhash> ziggy_: save it.. close gedit.. and do whatever you have been doing...
[09:34] <ziggy_> kk
[09:34] <neeto> !sound
[09:35] <Pizarro> One question more, I remmeber that with KDE for example there are several options to configure all the visual behaivour (windows, widgets, color schemes, special effects), but now I'm in gnome and I can't find these options but a simple one to choose the theme, is this correct or am I mising something?
[09:35] <Fryguy--> Pizarro: settings are located in different places in gnome and kde
[09:36] <Fryguy--> Pizarro: is there something specific you want to do or ?
[09:36] <Pizarro> Fryguy--, yes for example I want to custom the "special effects"
[09:36] <Fryguy--> Pizarro: install compizconfig-settings-manager
[09:37] <cedric_> #keldelice
[09:37] <Pizarro> let's see..
[09:37] <djhash> Hi all.. I need someone's help regarding s-video TV-out on ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy), using ATI Radeon Mobility M7 LW (7500).. check xorg.conf on pastebin http://pastebin.com/m6a87ef14
[09:39] <Pizarro> Fryguy--, installed, but I can't find it under any menu
[09:39] <ubunubi> what's the fastest way to find out if your soundcard is using an ALSA or OSS driver?
[09:39] <Fryguy--> Pizarro: run it manually from a terminal, or look under system preferences appearance menu
[09:39] <Fryguy--> ubunubi: it's using alsa
[09:39] <gordonjcp> ubunubi: it's using an alsa driver
[09:40] <freak124> I want some programs to run at startup that require me to be root, I did this by putting gksudo in front of the command in sessions, but it's a bit anoying that I have to typ in the password every time. Is there a solution?
[09:40] <gordonjcp> ubunubi: unless you've travelled back in time to the last century
[09:40] <ikonia> happy
[09:40] <ikonia> oops
[09:40] <ikonia> sorry
[09:40] <Fryguy--> startup or login?
[09:40] <kash> óõ íèõóÿ ñêîëüêî íàðîäó
[09:41] <kash> Åñòü ðóññêèå?
[09:41] <freak124> don't know, just in preferences->sessions
[09:41] <Fryguy--> freak124: edit sudoers to add explicit exceptions for certain commands.  see man sudo, man sudoers, and google for details
[09:41] <kash> Àëå, ðåáÿòà
[09:41] <Pizarro> Fryguy--, nothing in the apperance menu, which is the command name to execute it under the console?
[09:41] <freak124> ok thx
[09:41] <Fryguy--> Pizarro: probably compizconfig-settings-manager
[09:42] <djhash> !english | kash
[09:45] <Pizarro> Fryguy--, it's not the command name
[09:45] <earthmeLon_> When I'm browsing my directories in windows, if the directory starts with _ it starts at the beginning before any numbered directories, but with gnome, it's ignoring that character and listing according to the first alpha/numeric char.  Is there any way to stop this? or what will gnome accept in the front the will keep these dir at the top?
[09:45] <tack__> hello
[09:45] <Pizarro> Fryguy--, doing I locate compizconfig I don't find anything in the bin or sbin directory
[09:46] <dunkel2> what can u recommend me to solve my problem guys?
[09:46] <manz> cedaga isnt free is it?
[09:46] <LSD|Ninja> manz: yes and no
[09:46] <ikonia> no
[09:48] <Debian_Noobie> debian
[09:48] <LSD|Ninja> You have to pay to get the full deal but they used to release the bulk of the code (sans support for copy protection schemes or whatever) through CVS that you could use to compile your own copy with most of the functionality
[09:49] <blackrabbit> Debian_Noobie, yes, I've heard of it. >_<
[09:51] <iain> does anyone know what the filename stucture for UNIXodbc tempate file is? I know what goes in the file but not sur of the extension is there is one is???
[09:52] <iain> or if the what directory the tempate for the driver goes in
[09:53] <ziggy_> ok i did that now what how do i get it to run now
[09:54] <bushwakko> can I install kde4 packages for my ubuntu 8.04 install?
[09:54] <ziggy_> do i have to uninstall Kiba-Dock and reinstall it agin to get it to wokr ?
[09:56] <ziggy_> do i have to uninstall Kiba-Dock and reinstall it agin to get it to wokr ?
[09:58] <nullie> Where should I put per-user environment variables definitions?
[09:58] <blackrabbit> bushwakko, yes and see #kubuntu
[09:58] <bushwakko> but i don't want to change distro
[09:59] <bushwakko> just get the kde packages to play around with on my ubuntu
[09:59] <bushwakko> is this impossible?
[09:59] <blackrabbit> bushwakko, I install ubuntu, kubuntu, and xubuntu and toggle them
[09:59] <bushwakko> like, on different partitions?
[09:59] <blackrabbit> bushwakko, no, on the same partition
[10:00] <bushwakko> humm
[10:00] <blackrabbit> bushwakko, see kubuntu-kdestop for example
[10:00] <blackrabbit> kubuntu-desktop*
[10:00] <blackrabbit> but that's not kde4
[10:01] <blackrabbit> bushwakko, see the ubuntuforums.org threads regarding kde4, they'll get you there faster than I, or #kubuntu
[10:01] <blackrabbit> bushwakko, you may install as many desktop environments and window managers in the repos as you wish and jump between them at your leisure
[10:01] <Flannel> bushwakko: You can have any number of desktop environments installed on the same Ubuntu installation (this is, Ubuntu the distro).  These include Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and Ubuntu (and a few others)
[10:04] <tparcina> I'm trying to make my microphone work and I follow those instructions - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=385739
[10:04] <tparcina> problem is that on Volume control, I don't have "Capture" tab (3rd picture from the top)
[10:05] <johnnypea> can somebody tell what kind of Ubuntu is this one http://www.silverwingsonline.com/ubuntu1.jpg thx
[10:05] <tparcina> what should I do now to make my microphone work?
[10:06] <yaris12346789> i am using less to read a large log file. how do i get to the last line of the file ?
[10:07] <babo_> how can i write a text file on emacs and have it come out ok on windows ?
[10:07] <babo_> what do i do about newlines ?
[10:08] <Ayabara> is there a repo where I can get the latest Eclipse version?
[10:08] <Starnestommy> babo_: install the tofrodos package then use the unix2dos program in it to convert the newlines from unix to windows format
[10:08] <tparcina> yaris12346789: you can try dmesg
[10:09] <DJones> johnnypea: It looks like a basic ubuntu with AWN installed and a custom made background/theme, no idea what the theme would be though
[10:09] <Flannel> yaris12346789: G
[10:09] <yaris12346789> thanks
[10:10] <yaris12346789> shift g ?
[10:10] <Flannel> yaris12346789: G, yes.
[10:10] <yaris12346789> awesome
[10:10] <yaris12346789> worked
[10:11] <Pizarro> Anyone who is using Ubuntu in a Laptop has notices that opening files, applications, etc.. takes excessive time?
[10:11] <freak124> johnnypea: looks to me like that's the MID edition
[10:12] <Pizarro> I'm using Wubi over a XP drive, so I don't know if it has something to do with the time the files and application take to open..
[10:13] <Pizarro> Any advice on this?
[10:13] <Flannel> Pizarro: wubi will have a slight performance decrease with any disk access
[10:14] <Pizarro> Flannel, ok. I wanted to install an "oficial" Ubuntu version, but I have only one drive wichi is already hosting XP with important data, and I didn't want to trash it when making a partition for Linux
[10:14] <LSD|Ninja> hot-babe is in medibuntu, ROFL!
[10:15] <Flannel> Pizarro: Nothing wrong with wubi, the decrease is just something you have to acknowledge
[10:16] <Pizarro> Flannel, ok, now I'm very happy with it, but if I find a application that enables me to make a partition without damaging the current one I will move to a complete ubuntu version
[10:16] <zaggynl> Pizarro: tip: backups backups backups
[10:17] <becksul> hy
[10:17] <becksul> i have a big problem installing ubuntu
[10:17] <becksul> can anyone help please ?
[10:17] <Pizarro> The point is that I'm working in a Laptop bought with Vista, moved to the "dark side" of XP (with no support from the manufacturere, I had to look for every driver).. and now I want to move it definitly to Linux :P
[10:17] <mija> tell us your question
[10:17] <becksul> ok
[10:17] <Pizarro> This laptopo will suffer thre converssions XD
[10:17] <becksul> her it is :
[10:18] <becksul> i had the earlier version of ubuntu installed
[10:18] <becksul> and i had to reformat my pc
[10:18] <Pizarro> It's a HP Pavilion laptop
[10:18] <becksul> now i want to onstall ubuntu again
[10:18] <becksul> but none of my ubuntu cds work
[10:18] <mija> re-download it
[10:18] <mija> and burn the iso
[10:18] <becksul> i did itr
[10:19] <becksul> 3 -4 times
[10:19] <mija> how old are the discs
[10:19] <moderatelybc> So, I installed ubuntu today and I currently have sound in Rhythmbox and can watch video files with sound, but I don't have sound in Pidgin and Firefox (i.e. youtube, hulu, etc.).  Any ideas?
[10:19] <becksul> on 3 diffrent computers
[10:19] <ziggy_> do i have to uninstall Kiba-Dock and reinstall it agin to get it to wokr ?
[10:19] <mija> does your notebook have boot on cd-rom?
[10:19] <ziggy_> inable it in cmos
[10:20] <blackrabbit> moderatelybc, I fixed my sound issues (all of them) by switching all of my audio settings to ALSA
[10:20] <blackrabbit> moderatelybc, system -> pref -> sound & all to ALSA, it may work for you may not
[10:20] <moderatelybc> Ok, I'll try that.
[10:21] <VenomSeven> I installed ubuntu 8.04 with wubi, how do I access my data from my windows "partition"?
[10:21] <blackrabbit> moderatelybc, I don't know if it requires a reboot or logout/login for changes to be applied completely
[10:22] <the-fafa> i got alsa problems as well.. and only esd seems to work :(
[10:22] <blackrabbit> moderatelybc, before I did this, I had all sorts of sound issues, pulseaudio just wasn't for me
[10:22] <binskipy2u> anyone know how to enable fast user switching on kubuntu?
[10:22] <binskipy2u> i cant seem to "log off" and get back to user menu
[10:22] <binskipy2u> i have to shut down w/p;ower button
[10:22] <binskipy2u> to reboot to log back in
[10:22] <blackrabbit> binskipy2u, #kubuntu
[10:23] <moderatelybc> All right, I'm restarting.  Be back in a bit.
[10:23] <blackrabbit> moderatelybc, good luck tell us if it works please
[10:24] <TomaszD> hey, how do I count the words in a text file, but only the lines beginning with "#. Default:"
[10:24] <LSD|Ninja> something to get those lines | wc -l
[10:25] <LSD|Ninja> grep "#. Default:" textfile | wc -l maybe
[10:25] <LSD|Ninja> you may need to escape a few of those character a little better than that though
[10:27] <TomaszD> LSD|Ninja, the -w switch shows number of words, -l shows something else
[10:27] <the-fafa> the lines
[10:28] <Johnny> is there a cool package for icons?
[10:28] <moderatelybc> So now I have completely no sound, haha.
[10:28] <TomaszD> LSD|Ninja, this should work, thanks
[10:28] <Cyber_Stalker> http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/security_holes.png
[10:28] <LSD|Ninja> TomaszD: -l is line count
[10:28] <Cyber_Stalker> lol @ that last OS on that link :D
[10:29] <Johnny> ubuntu is windows vista how?
[10:30] <ikonia> Johnny: ubuntu is not windows vista

[10:31] <LSD|Ninja> Johnny: nah, johnny's question about icons
[10:31] <blackrabbit> Johnny, have you discovered icon packs outside of the repos?
[10:32] <blackrabbit> Johnny, gnome look and some other sites have good icon choices too!
[10:32] <Johnny> no blacknred0
[10:32] <Johnny> do you know where can i get some?
[10:32] <LSD|Ninja> gnome-look?
[10:32] <blackrabbit> LSD|Ninja, I thought that was the site name, but I'm exhausted atm

[10:41] <wild_oscar> {Delano}: use your windows xp disk
[10:41] <wild_oscar> boot with it, choose repair
[10:41] <s3a_> johnny: right click on ur desktop, select change desktop backround then go to the themes tab select install and choose ur downloaded theme
[10:42] <Johnny> no s3a
[10:42] <s3a_> Johnny: wat?
[10:42] <{Delano}> I tried that, wild_oscar, but it didn't work... isn't there a way I could restore it via the Ubuntu discs themselves?
[10:42] <Johnny> i mean how do i know where to put them
[10:43] <Johnny> or does it matter?
[10:43] <wild_oscar> {Delano}: you tried the "fixmbr" command?
[10:43] <rockyrock> anybody knows????
[10:43] <s3a_> johnny: how do u no were to put wat?

[10:44] <wild_oscar> issue is "fixed" by restarting X
[10:44] <s3a_> johnny: location of that doesnt matter, just use install to find it and then select it and itll load it.hopefully
[10:44] <Johnny> alright
[10:44] <Johnny> thanks
[10:45] <s3a_> johnny: well did u get it to work?
[10:45] <wild_oscar> I need help pinpointing the issue, which is described here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=814079&page=2&highlight=login+desktop+icons
[10:45] <Johnny> still downloading
[10:45] <s3a_> any1 here know how to compile?
[10:46] <Pizarro> To install MFC win libraries for win I have to apt-get wintricks right?
[10:46] <Pizarro> sorry I meant for wine
[10:46] <[Michelangelo]> Desktop effects could not be enabled
[10:46] <[Michelangelo]> why?
[10:46] <sinan> Can you recommend a serial terminal better than cu ?
[10:48] <Johnny> s3a,
[10:48] <Johnny> how do i install them from xfce
[10:51] <b4l7424r> what does the boot from first hard disk option in the live cd menu do_
[10:51] <negge^> b4l7424r: it boots from the first harddisk
[10:51] <sinan> lol
[10:51] <negge^> :D
[10:51] <b4l7424r> boots what_
[10:51] <wild_oscar> whatever you have installed
[10:52] <koshari> b4l7424r whatever the mbr ppoints to
[10:52] <b4l7424r> windows then
[10:52] <negge^> b4l7424r: for example if you have Windows installed and boot from the Live CD and decide not to use it you select boot from first harddisk and Windows will boot
[10:52] <b4l7424r> ok
[10:52] <wild_oscar> it's the same option as if you had not put the cd in
[10:52] <b4l7424r> how can i boot ubuntu if i don\t have the grub menu any longer_
[10:52] <b4l7424r> i deleted it
[10:53] <negge^> b4l7424r: you'll have to reinstall it then
[10:53] <b4l7424r> so its not possible to boot without grub installed_
[10:53] <negge^> I don't think so
[10:54] <yakman> what is the command to control things on startup, i think its something like "rc-update" or similar
[10:54] <ubunubi> i checked lsmod to see what driver my network card was assigned but the "use" column by the network driver says 0? does that mean it's not really in use or?
[10:54] <LSD|Ninja> ubunubi: that just means no other modules depends on that one
[10:54] <ubunubi> LSD|Ninja: thanks

[10:59] <enzo> hi
[11:00] <jose> i'm trying to get some help viewing videos on the internet
[11:00] <wild_oscar> I have an issue with I believe is GDM - when I login, desktop icons are not shown and desktop is unresponsive. someone else has described the isssue here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=814079. Can anyone help pinpoint the problem?
[11:00] <enzo> i have a ubuntu on a server with a screen plugged, when i boot i have my resolution of 1600x1200, but if i unplug my screen, and reboot, the resolution goes to 800x600, is there a way to force the default resolution ? (1600x1200)
[11:01] <ubunubi> anyone mind looking at this http://paste.ubuntu.com/25653/ and see if you can help me resolve the compile errors for this network driver?
[11:02] <erpo> fspot's cache is stale. How do I get it to re-scan my photo library?
[11:03] <wild_oscar> ubunubi: googling thw "error: implicit declaration of function ‘SET_MODULE_OWNER’ " returned 875 results. might be a good place to start ;)
[11:07] <Cyber_Stalker> http://www.xkcd.com/395/
[11:07] <Surge_> Is there an "alternative" CD install for the server version of Ubuntu? I only see the altenative install for the desktop distro.
[11:07] <ikonia> Surge_: there is no need for an alternative server cd
[11:07] <ikonia> Surge_: the server cd does not install with a X11 gui
[11:07] <erpo> Surge_: I believe there is. Why?
[11:08] <joaopinto> Surge_, the sever cd is already an "alternate" alike method
[11:08] <ikonia> erpo: there is not
[11:08] <elkbuntu> Cyber_Stalker, this is a support channel, random chatter happens in #ubuntu-offtopic
[11:08] <simoo> Hi, I have problems with Ubuntu not using the sound card I want it too, it seems to choose a random one each boot. How can I choose which one Ubuntu uses?
[11:08] <anakron> HI!
[11:08] <erpo> simoo: You could remove or disable one sound card.
[11:09] <anakron> im from Ubuntu-Cl, chilean community
[11:09] <anakron> nice to meet you
[11:09] <tparcina> why my ProFTPd isn't listening for any port? - http://pastebin.ca/1064513
[11:09] <unohu> anakron: nice to meet u too :-)
[11:09] <simoo> erpo: thanks, I can't remove because it's on board, how do I disable?
[11:09] <ikonia> anakron: hi, this is a support channel, you'll get some random chatter in #ubuntu-offtopic
[11:09] <tparcina> it says that it's started, but netstat doesn't show that
[11:09] <joaopinto> tparcina, ps -ef | grep ftp
[11:09] <anakron> i know it...
[11:10] <erpo> simoo: Check your bios. There should be a section called "Integrated Peripherals" or something like that.
[11:10] <negge^> simoo: check this out: http://dalejefferson.org/blog/how-change-default-sound-card-ubuntu/
[11:10] <simoo> erpo: that doesn't work, Ubuntu detects it anyway
[11:10] <tparcina> joaopinto: tomo      4683  4648  0 12:37 pts/0    00:00:00 grep ftp
[11:10] <negge^> had to do it myself too once
[11:10] <erpo> simoo: Are you sure you've disabled it?
[11:10] <simoo> erpo: yeah
[11:10] <Dr_willis> i wonder if one could black list the module for the one soundcard.
[11:10] <joaopinto> tparcina, so it is not running, have you checked the logs ?
[11:11] <tparcina> joaopinto: thank you, I'll check them now
[11:11] <negge^> Dr_willis: disabling it BIOS would be way easier
[11:11] <erpo> simoo: You could delete or rename the kernel module for the bad sound card as Dr_willis suggested.
[11:11] <simoo> Dr_willis: thanks
[11:11] <Dr_willis> negge^ if the bios lets it do it. wich seems to  be a problem in this case. :)  Gotta love cheap bios's
[11:11] <simoo> erpo: thanks, where is the blacklist file?
[11:12] <Dr_willis> !blacklist
[11:12] <Johnny> http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://imwithgenius.files.wordpress.com/2008/04/screenshot-1.png&imgrefurl=http://imwithgenius.wordpress.com/2008/04/17/whos-laughing-now/&h=1024&w=1280&sz=2100&hl=en&start=193&sig2=0gpYeNTPm_KDl4pqElty2g&um=1&tbnid=RQvNVbw9fIBJ4M:&tbnh=120&tbnw=150&ei=o-txSIu5G5SypgSW-7SABA&prev=/images%3Fq%3D%2Bubuntu%2Bscreenshots%26start%3D189%26ndsp%3D21%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DN
[11:12] <Johnny> what is the little icon panel at the bottom claled?
[11:12] <simoo> ubottu: thank you :)
[11:12] <threequarks> is there a news ticker app for the gnome desktop?  i'm aware of the widgets you can get for place rss feeds on your desktop, but i'm more after a tickertape widget with scrolling headlines right to left?
[11:12] <Dr_willis> simoo,  ubottu  is a bot. :)
[11:12] <threequarks> johnny: try tinyurl next time. easier to cut and paste...
[11:13] <simoo> Dr_willis: haha oh
[11:13] <angelo> Hello, can I use ICQ 6 with ubuntu 8.04 LTS? Thanks for info!
[11:14] <threequarks> angelo > try pidgin.
[11:14] <erpo> angelo: You can access ICQ with pidgin.
[11:14] <tparcina> joaopinto: there is nothing in /var/log/proftpd/controls.log and proftpd.log and  cat /var/log/messages | grep ftp doesn't show anything
[11:14] <erpo> angelo: It supports the latest ICQ protocol.
[11:15] <tparcina> is there any other log that I should search in?
[11:15] <simoo> hi again, what is the best way to find out what module my on board sound card is using?
[11:15] <LSD|Ninja> simoo: lsmod
[11:15] <Surge_> ikonia: That's odd - maybe I didn't have the server CD install. I got a nice live CD when I booted off it. The problem being that there is no software RAID configuration in the GUI whereas the alternative CD has it.
[11:15] <erpo> simoo: lsmod, and look for something that sounds like the chip you're using.
[11:15] <eth01> simoo: go to the manufacturers website.
[11:15] <s3a_> simoo: u want to find out wat sound card u have?
[11:15] <erpo> simoo: You can also google for the output of lsmod to see what hardware is supported by each driver.
[11:15] <joaopinto> tparcina, /var/log/daemon.log
[11:15] <LSD|Ninja> if it's opnboard though, chances are it's using hda-intel or intel8x0
[11:15] <eth01> (providing you know the motherboard model etc)
[11:16] <simoo> erpo: thanks, do all the sound card mdules begin with snd?
[11:16] <LSD|Ninja> also ones, yes
[11:16] <LSD|Ninja> alsa*
[11:17] <tparcina> joaopinto: /var/log/deamon.log doesn't say anything about ProFTPd (grep ftp)
[11:18] <joaopinto> ok, that is odd
[11:18] <simoo> thanks for all the help guys, think I got it
[11:18] <joaopinto> tparcina, this is not a fix for your specific problem, but why proftpd instead of vsftpd ?
[11:18] <eth01> tparcina: locate proftpd ?
[11:18] <joaopinto> vsftp has builting SSL support, and it's supported by the ubuntu core devs
[11:19] <tparcina> joaopinto: I thouth that proftd is the default one for Ubuntu
[11:19] <tparcina> joaopinto: what Ubuntu users/developers sugest to use?
[11:19] <joaopinto> tparcina, proftpd is avaialble on universe, vsftp is available on main
[11:19] <joaopinto> I would recommend vsftpd
[11:20] <tparcina> eth01: I have execute "locate proftpd" it doens't return anything
[11:20] <eth01> tparcina: have you got it installed?
[11:20] <tobago|away> how can format/fill an ipod shuffle under ubuntu? i installed packages hfsplus and gtkpod...
[11:20] <tobago|away> but the ipod is not mounted.
[11:20] <enahat> tr
[11:21] <eth01> tparcina: use SFTP..
[11:21] <eth01> (FTP is old and slow)
[11:21] <eth01> we live in 2008 :)
[11:21] <SwedeMike> slow?
[11:21] <eth01> reasonably slow.
[11:21] <SwedeMike> in what way is ftp slow?
[11:22] <eth01> not answering that question, you should know
[11:22] <SwedeMike> no, I don't.
[11:22] <eth01> awww, well you better go ask google
[11:22] <eth01> because i'm not debating it in here.
[11:23] <eth01> :-)
[11:23] <SwedeMike> give me a pointer? initiating the command channel? because transfers are TCP window size dependant, and that's not FTPs fault.
[11:24] <tparcina> eth01: I guess I have. I head /etc/proftpd/ directory with conf files. how can I check is it installed?
[11:24] <kelvin911> hi any opera user here?
[11:24] <tparcina> eth01: I thouth that ftp is faster than sftp?
[11:25] <eth01> tparcina: sudo apt-cache show proftpd iirc
[11:25] <logixoul> Hey guys! When will gcc 4.3 be available on Hardy? Or where can I check?
[11:25] <Pizarro> I'm trying to execute a win app with wine and I get : :wgl:X11DRV_wglCreateContext Cannot get FB Co... Can anyone help me please?
[11:26] <eth01> or try dpkg -l '*proftpd*'
[11:26] <joaopinto> Pizarro, better ask on #winehq
[11:26] <anabolix> can someone tell me how to fix resolutions? i installed warcraft 3, and it fits the screen perfectly at 800x600
[11:26] <anabolix> but anything else doesnt
[11:27] <joaopinto> tparcina, not really.. since sftp uses compression, they should provide you similar rates
[11:27] <joaopinto> anabolix, please ask on #winehq
[11:27] <anabolix> thanks
[11:27] <eth01> er, SFTP as suggested, would be noticely better
[11:27] <eth01> noticebly *
[11:28] <tparcina> it seams that it's installed. but I'm switching to vsftpd
[11:28] <joaopinto> logixoul, it will not be available on Hardy
[11:28] <eth01> what's the point?
[11:28] <eth01> you can use SFTP out of the box, you only need SSH.
[11:28] <eth01> well, openssh-server :-)
[11:28] <logixoul> joaopinto: oh, ok. is this part of a bugfix-releases-only policy?
[11:28] <joaopinto> logixoul, yes
[11:29] <eth01> and, it's also a lot more secure than what ftp is.. google proftpd ;)
[11:30] <tparcina> data that will be transfered are not private, and lots of Win users don't have ssh client installed
[11:30] <logixoul> joaopinto: ok does that include backports?
[11:30] <slck> hello
[11:30] <joaopinto> tparcina, neither they have an FTP client installed :P
[11:30] <eth01> tparcina: so?
[11:30] <ajeffreys> hi
[11:30] <slck> i always been having this problem with ubuntu: over putty and screen, mc ncurses draw wrong
[11:30] <neil_d> can you easily add  Gnome to a 'server' install and end up with something just like the 'desktop' version ?
[11:30] <eth01> tparcina: you don't need a ftp client installed to access stuff over ftp.
[11:31] <slck> is there anything i can do about it
[11:31] <tparcina> joaopinto: Internet Explorer - ftp://my.ftpsite.com
[11:31] <eth01> an internet browser, command prompt, my documents will do :-)
[11:31] <joaopinto> logixoul, my comment does not include backports, but you woul need to request it
[11:31] <joaopinto> tparcina, ok ok :P
[11:31] <logixoul> joaopinto: k, thanks :)
[11:31] <ajeffreys> slck what version of ubuntu do you have?
[11:31] <eth01> sigh.
[11:31] <ikonia> neil_d: it's better to use the desktop version
[11:31] <slck> ajeffreys any
[11:31] <eth01> if you think you know everything about FTP tparcina then you'll use SFTP.
[11:31] <joaopinto> neil_d, you can
[11:32] <eth01> obviously not, *ahem*
[11:32] <ajeffreys> what are you running now?
[11:32] <joaopinto> eth01, if it is not sensitive data, and there is no login involved.. there is not advantage on using SFTP
[11:32] <neil_d> joaopinto: how ?
[11:32] <tparcina> eth01: that's what I'm saying. For FTP on win they don't have to install anything, and for SFTP they would need to install aditional software
[11:32] <slck> i didnt install this
[11:32] <slck> how can i find out
[11:32] <joaopinto> neil_d, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[11:32] <ikonia> neil_d: use the desktop cd if you want a desktop
[11:32] <ikonia> neil_d: why are you using the server version ?
[11:32] <eth01> tparcina: ...
[11:32] <ikonia> neil_d: what is the driver for using the server version
[11:32] <neil_d> joaopinto: thanks.
[11:33] <eth01> tparcina: you don't need ftp clients to access stuff over ftp.
[11:33] <Dezine> At one point and time my driver was installable from "Hardware Drivers." Now I can't and installing the package doesn't work. I can't play any games or turn on advance appearance effects. I have an Nvidia 5900 FX/
[11:33] <neil_d> ikonia: setup of RAID etc.
[11:33] <joaopinto> ikonia, I am assuming he already installed from the server cd :P
[11:33] <eth01> you can use a command prompt, internet explorer, even my documents/my computer
[11:33] <eth01> shove it in the my address bar, and hey presto..
[11:33] <ajeffreys> slck go to this link: http://www.debianadmin.com/find-your-debian-or-ubuntu-linux-version-you-are-running.html
[11:33] <ikonia> neil_d: the desktop CD can do that
[11:33] <eth01> (unless group policys have been applied in which case you fail)
[11:33] <neil_d> ikonia: via the install script ?
[11:34] <joaopinto> eth01, erm, how does the command line ftp awareness improves the solution for the problem ?
[11:34] <slck> dapper Ubuntu 6.06.2 LTS
[11:34] <tparcina> eth01: that's what I'm saying as well
[11:34] <eth01> joaoptine: to access FTP, yes, you can.
[11:34] <eth01> command prompt -> telnet?
[11:34] <eth01> telnet -> ftp
[11:34] <eth01> del :-)
[11:34] <joaopinto> eth01, and what is the advantage ?
[11:35] <eth01> joapinto: there is no advantage on this matter.
[11:35] <slck> its an Ubuntu 6.06.2 LTS Dapper ajeffreys
[11:35] <joaopinto> I am perfectly aware of the ftp capabilities, I just don't see on does that provide any help to tparcina
[11:35] <ajeffreys> slck In that case you should probably go here: http://www.ubuntu.com/GetUbuntu/download and download the latest version (8.04). as that is much more up to date
[11:35] <eth01> i'm talking about ways in which to access ftp instead of using an actual ftp client.
[11:35] <joaopinto> on how
[11:35] <eth01> if you actually understood what i said, you'd know that.
[11:35] <joaopinto> tparcina, sudo apt-get install vsftpd :)
[11:35] <slck> wait
[11:35] <slck> you mean i better reinstall the whole server because my mc doesnt draw well?
[11:36] <eth01> tparcina: :/
[11:36] <slck> it must be something with the terminal
[11:36] <joaopinto> slck, your what ?
[11:36] <slck> maybe if i upgrade ncurses or mc
[11:36] <isle85> hello, I try to use Terminal server Client, but the protocol "vnc" is not available. HOw do I do to make it choosable ?
[11:36] <joaopinto> what's mc ?
[11:37] <slck> midnight commander... a tool for console
[11:37] <ajeffreys> slck Possibly, although I don't have experience with the server edition.
[11:37] <eth01> a basic simple file viewer etc
[11:37] <eth01> pretty horrid too
[11:37] <slck> its old.. its the equivalent of dos's norton commander
[11:37] <ajeffreys> slck Have you tried the official forums: http://ubuntuforums.org/index.php You may find more answers there.
[11:37] <slck> handy for non-X users
[11:38] <slck> i'll search ajeffreys thanks
[11:38] <joaopinto> slck, is the TERM variable properly set ?
[11:38] <joaopinto> mc works fine here
[11:38] <joaopinto> which terminal type are you using ?
[11:38] <slck> screen
[11:38] <slck> i tried vt100
[11:39] <slck> i know that localy it runs ok
[11:39] <joaopinto> erm, I mean on the client side.. what is the software.. from linux using ssh, or windows using putty ?
[11:39] <slck> as far as i saw on google
[11:39] <slck> its from screen that messes up
[11:39] <slck> and it happens on debian too
[11:39] <slck> its a putty
[11:39] <joaopinto> so that an "mc" issue
[11:39] <joaopinto> thats
[11:40] <slck> maybe i should compile my own mc
[11:40] <joaopinto> slck, why would that help ?
[11:40] <KoolD> whats the command to view the mounted drives?

[11:41] <ubunubi> !realtek
[11:42] <isle85> who could help about vnc and terminal client server ?
[11:42] <slck> if its an mc issue.. joeopinto ...
[11:42] <slck> what else do you suggest
[11:43] <joaopinto> slck, I don't see much point in using screen with mc
[11:43] <arvind_khadri> can i install packages burnt on a cd using aptoncd
[11:43] <slck> hmm
[11:43] <joaopinto> mc is something that you use in a short period of time.. why do you need it running from screen ?
[11:43] <bazhang> arvind_khadri, sure
[11:43] <slck> why?
[11:43] <slck> i use screen all the time
[11:43] <joaopinto> screen is commonly used for long run jobs
[11:43] <lakis1982> hiii..  i have downloaded a racing game for linux called    racer .... tha file was  in    .run format and i installed it .... now how can i uninstall the game ????
[11:43] <slck> not only
[11:44] <slck> screen i use to have multiple virtual consoles over 1 ssh connection
[11:44] <joaopinto> and why do you screen all the time ?
[11:44] <slck> and from 1 screen
[11:44] <slck> i run ssh to other boxes
[11:44] <slck> and in them other screens
[11:44] <ciacon> hi folks - I have a pretty muddeld up list of files, where I want to have a standard name contvention... 000x000.png -> 780x780.png... sadly the files are like this --> 20x20 30x30 and so on.... can someone lend me a hand?? renamig 1600 files by hand is a bummer... for a list of the files to be rename please refer to this:    http://ciacon.dyndns.org:8001/files.txt
[11:44] <slck> so essentialy
[11:44] <slck> i attach to 1 screen
[11:44] <FloodBot1> slck: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:44] <joaopinto> ok, you are using it as mutiplexer
[11:44] <slck> and have all my shells in a keystrokes reach
[11:45] <slck> screen is much more than just to run stuff detouched
[11:45] <eth01> woah
[11:45] <slck> i use it as a virtual console yes
[11:45] <eth01> go easy on the enter
[11:45] <DJones> slck: I've just tried mc via putty, its usable, but some of the formatting isn't right, mainly what I would expect to see as lines between the windows come out as 'odd' characters, but I get similar things in irssi over putty as well, some foreign language comments don't render properly either
[11:45] <joaopinto> slck, it depends on who uses it... for me it is only to run stuff detouched.. for the rest I do like to have each connection in a tab :)
[11:45] <slck> yes DJones
[11:46] <eth01> DJones: it's crap.
[11:46]  * eth01 knew this 3 years ago....
[11:46] <slck> mc saves keystrokes
[11:46] <orly_owl> i killed gnome-screensaver but my screen is still black, how can i fix it? (ubuntu hardy)
[11:46] <Tomate> WntuG?
[11:47] <eth01> aye, but you can achieve the same by using rm, mv, nano et cetera
[11:47] <eth01> AND, it's less confusing.
[11:47] <soulchild> HI all,... is there a way to change the green color of  username@machine to red in bash ???
[11:47] <eth01> soulchild: #bash
[11:47] <Dr_willis> soulchild,   google for the 'bash prompt howto' its easialy changed
[11:47] <Dr_willis> and thers dozens of other neat tricks ya can do
[11:48] <slck> i suspect it may have to do something with ncurses lib DJones
[11:49] <erkanea> hi everyone, i have installed vncserver with this guide: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=197964, when i do 'vncviewer localhost:1' on the server i get connection reset by peer error, anyone know what im missing?
[11:49] <slck> the builds of it that come with debian and ubuntu
[11:49] <tkersten> eep
[11:50] <isle85> hello, I do I do to make "Terminal Server Client" to offer "VNC" as protocol in its pulldown menu ?
[11:50] <DJones> slck: Not sure what causes it, although I'd be tempted to say its a putty issue as using ssh on an ubuntu machine doesn't cause the same problem, so seems to be a putty/windows issue
[11:50] <eth01> slck: it's not ncurses
[11:51] <lakis1982> hiii..  i have downloaded a racing game for linux called    racer .... tha file was  in    .run format and i installed it .... now how can i uninstall the game ????
[11:51] <eth01> lakis1982: we heard you the first time.
[11:52] <joaopinto> lakis1982, you need to figure where it was installed, how are you starting the game ?
[11:53] <lakis1982> its intalled in /usr/local/games/racer
[11:53] <joaopinto> so you will need to remove it manually
[11:53] <lakis1982> in there ther exists a file named uninstall and its a shell script
[11:53] <joaopinto> sudo rm -rf /usr/local/games/racer
[11:54] <joaopinto> I would remove it manually instead of using the uninstall script :P
[11:54] <lakis1982> you mean just go there and send the dir to trash
[11:54] <joaopinto> yes
[11:54] <lakis1982> ?
[11:55] <enzo> ls
[11:55] <lakis1982> it doesnt affect anyu other directories
[11:55] <enzo> oups
[11:55] <joaopinto> since the install usually only extracts the dir
[11:55] <lakis1982> game is installed just in one place?
[11:55] <unohu> lakis1982: it is better to use the uninstall script.......
[11:55] <joaopinto> lakis1982, usually it does not.. at least.. for games
[11:55] <lakis1982> the installed was    a   .run    file
[11:55] <joaopinto> unohu, you are assuming that is safe to use the uninstall script ;)
[11:56] <joaopinto> lakis1982, a .run file is just a script. it could have installed files anywhere, but usually game packages are self contained into a single dir
[11:56] <unohu> joaopinto: : if the .run was safe to install...then why not? :-) but its always better to go thru it as you said ......

[11:59] <joaopinto> deadsnake, have you checked the dmesg output ?
[12:00] <joaopinto> angelo, why do you need to upgrade pidgin ? You would be safer to keep with the repositories version...
[12:00] <deadsnake> joaopinto, no I havent, wheres that?
[12:00] <unohu> deadsnake: are you dualbooting?
[12:00] <joaopinto> deadsnake, after the mount just type "dmesg" , on the terminal, it may provide you some hint on the problem
[12:00] <deadsnake> unohu, yes i am
[12:01] <joaopinto> unclean shutdown on the windows side ?
[12:01] <MonkeyC> helo
[12:01] <unohu> deadsnake: so u might have hibernated in vista/xp .... this may sometime mark the ntfs partitions as active or smthing..so it wont mount
[12:02] <unohu> deadsnake: so check if you have shutdown......
[12:02] <deadsnake> unohu: no, i definately havent hybernated in vista.

[12:10] <magnetron> kadakas, you may need to verify the integrity of your cd. in which speed did you burn that disc?
[12:10] <bazhang> kadakas, from shipit?
[12:10] <whalesalad> Hey everyone. Is there a place that I can look to find where apt-get built a certain application (specifically, where I might find the configure parameters for it, in this case, svn)
[12:10] <kadakas> bazhang: yeah, from shipit
[12:10] <unohu> deadsnake: dont see anything.....are you able to access the drive from windows?
[12:10] <bazhang> that is odd.

[12:19] <alleyoopster> LLMP:what about TiLP2, just got that from googling
[12:19] <mesiox> i installed aircrack-ng, how do i use it?
[12:19] <bazhang> np :)
[12:19] <magnetron> LLMP, i already told you: investigate the tilp2 package
[12:20] <LLMP> I saw that but i am not sure will it give me the snap shots
[12:20] <magnetron> mesiox, there's a good tutorial on the aircrack-ng homepage
[12:20] <LLMP> of my caculater
[12:20] <magnetron> LLMP, did you even try it?
[12:20] <LLMP> i cant find that option thats why i am asking if there was a notehr one
[12:20] <magnetron> LLMP, it's the only one
[12:20] <LLMP> i am scared that i will mess up
[12:20] <mesiox> magnetron: how do i open it atleast?
[12:20] <LLMP> i started linux less than 2 days ago
[12:21] <magnetron> mesiox, it's a command line tool
[12:21] <Pici> LLMP: No one is going to hold it against you if you need to go to windows to use TI Connect.
[12:21] <magnetron> mesiox, go check the web page for instructions
[12:21] <whalesalad> dns53: having a hard time finding that def file, do you know where it might be?
[12:22] <joaopinto> whalesalad, could explain what are you trying to achieve ? What is the software you want to change the configuration from ?
[12:22] <LLMP> I dont want to go back to Windows, for once my laptop did not crash
[12:22] <whalesalad> had a problem a while back where svn and trac weren't playing nice for some reason. ended up having to compile from source with swig and apr and a few other things (was previously using apt-get method) but right now I get errors when trying to checkout things such as wordpress (things over http://). Doing an svn --version prints out that the ra_dav module is not enabled, which allows http and https repo access. Is there a configure param that I can use
[12:23] <joaopinto> whalesalad, uh ? the ubuntu svn does support getting from http and https based svn repositories
[12:23] <whalesalad> joaopinto: I was told in the svn channel that the neon lib was required, but it's currently installed. So now I'm looking at whether or not I need to define the path to neon. But, would be nice to see how ubuntu does the configure line in apt-get
[12:23] <fongkwan> I'm completely miserable right now.  To make the long story short, someone suggested that I should switch from 2.6.24.16-386 to 2.6.24.18-generic, after the switch my wireless usb stopped working.  The driver it used before was zd1211rw
[12:23] <whalesalad> joaopinto: my problem was with svn playing nice with trac. currently, having installed svn from source, I am having a problem becuase ra_dav support isn't enabled
[12:23] <idefix_> how can we fix the open source IcedTea plugin?
[12:24] <fongkwan> Can someone please. i beg, help me revive my wireless connectiviity?
[12:24] <joaopinto> whalesalad, why did you install svn from the source in the first place ? That could your problem...
[12:24] <unohu> fongkwan: details please
[12:25] <whalesalad> joaopinto: not sure why everyone is so opposed to compiling from source, it's as though doing things like that is taboo. apt-get doesn't work all of the time :)
[12:25] <joaopinto> whalesalad, because most people which try to do it, do not have the required skills and usually get into troubles.. it seems to be your case
[12:25] <bazhang> idefix_, file a bug report
[12:25] <unohu> fongkwan:  check if the kernel module for ur driver is loaded...
[12:26] <idefix_> bazhang are you Chinese?
[12:26] <joaopinto> whalesalad, not to mention, that it does not usually bring anything new
[12:26] <fongkwan> unohu:  how?
[12:26] <dns53> whalesalad look under /debian from the source i'm not sure what file has the config options
[12:26] <cakey> check if your ping is over 9000
[12:26] <LLMP> this is sad but what is the command to download Tilp2?

[12:32] <bazhang> quantumelixir, what does apt-cache search chm turn up
[12:32] <unohu> fongkwan: it seems like the driver has some problems in hardy..check the ubuntu forums...they have some solutions....
[12:33] <remoteCTR1> Starnestommy: yeah, that was it, libpurple-dev did the trick, thanks man!
[12:33] <fongkwan> unohu, one thing may or may not be worth mentioning, prior to this, and if i remember correctly, ifconfigure before showed my wireless device as wlan0
[12:33] <bazhang> quantumelixir, err apt-cache search comic sorry (have it installed and it works well-->comix)

[12:34] <LLMP> For Tilp2 they dont tell u how to work it
[12:34] <legend2440> quantumelixir: kchmviewer-nokde   is much better than gnochm  IMHO
[12:34] <LLMP> i read the readme but nm there
[12:35] <mahesh> bazhang: its a flash player package..how to install it
[12:35] <opt1k> hey, how to upgrade qt3 to qt4
[12:35] <opt1k> ?
[12:35] <neosix> ﻿﻿Hello! Is there a way to change icon size in xfce-menu on panel? ﻿ I tryed with .gtkrc-2.0 but nothing...
[12:35] <bazhang> mahesh, from synaptic
[12:35] <Starnestommy> mahesh: look for flashplugin in synaptic
[12:36] <fongkwan> unohu, now its not there.  Are you telling me this problem with zd1211rw just appeared?   I mean i have been using zd1211rw for my TP-LINK-WN322G for the past 3 months w/o a problem (Prior the switch from 2.6.24-16-386 -> 2.6.24.18-generic)
[12:36] <bazhang> mahesh, always look in ubuntu repos first
[12:36] <mahesh> bazhang: ok
[12:36] <dns53> mahesh install flashplugin-nonfree
[12:36] <pogztimz> is it possible to install iTALC on Dapper Drake release? anyone pls..
[12:37] <opt1k> how to upgrade qt3 to qt4?
[12:37] <mahesh> starnestommy : synaptic showed me gnash plugin but even after installing it iam not able to view youtube videos
[12:37] <Pici> pogztimz: what is italc?
[12:37] <dns53> you may also want to install libflashsupport as well to get the audio to work better
[12:37] <mahesh> bazhang: synaptic showed me gnash plugin but even after installing it iam not able to view youtube videos
[12:37] <Starnestommy> mahesh: what about the flashplugin-nonfree package in the multiverse repository?
[12:37] <hugh> anyone got the flash player working for bbc iplayer?
[12:37] <the-fafa> how do i enable alsa completely in favour of other sound stuff?
[12:38] <pogztimz> TALC is a use- and powerful didactical tool for teachers. It lets you view and control other computers in your network in several ways
[12:38] <Starnestommy> pogztimz: you'll need to either compile it yourself or upgrade ubuntu
[12:38] <eth01> heh
[12:38] <cherva> I have an NTFS drive and when I mount it an icon appears on my desktop ... how can I rename it because I don't want to see "Windows" on my desktop :) there is no windows there it's just an NTFS ...
[12:38] <hugh> i downloaded the rpm, converted it to .deb with alien and installed it but restarting ff3 it doesn't have the plug in?!..
[12:38] <pogztimz> eerrr. my machine cant support higher release of ubuntu
[12:38] <mahesh> starnestommy : where to find that flashplugin-nonfree
[12:38] <Starnestommy> hugh: alien often doesn't transform packages correctly
[12:39] <bazhang> hugh the rpm? that is not the way to go.
[12:39] <mahesh> starnestommy : i was searching for it but didnt get
[12:39] <Starnestommy> mahesh: make sure that the multiversr repository is enabled in System > Administration > Software sources
[12:39] <LLMP> does anyone know how does tilp2 work
[12:39] <hugh> ah, i see. i'll try with the tar.gz then
 just type this into your terminal. sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[12:39] <jamus> what up do i need for web streams (like u tube for exmpl)
[12:39] <Starnestommy> mahesh: multiverse, not multiversr
[12:39] <LLMP> i plug in my caculater and nm happens
[12:39] <jamus> app**
[12:39] <Starnestommy> jamus: flash
[12:39] <fongkwan> unohu, can you direct me to the link you're reading it from?
[12:39] <bazhang> jamus, downloaded?
[12:39] <jamus> right ...tnx
[12:39] <dns53> mahesh you need to enable the universe / multiverse repo as it is not free
[12:39] <opt1k> how do i update to Qt 4 development package??
[12:40] <mahesh> starnestommy : multiverse is enabled already
[12:40] <Starnestommy> opt1k: sudo apt-get install libqt4-core ?
[12:40] <ubunubi> cherva: you sitll need your ? answered?
[12:40] <opt1k> Starnestommy: tx, didn't know the name of the package
[12:40] <Starnestommy> mahesh: it might be another package with flash in its name
[12:40] <cherva> ubunubi: yes
[12:40] <Starnestommy> opt1k: it might also be libqt4-dev
[12:41] <fongkwan> unohu,  I mean i have been using zd1211rw for the past 3 months w/o a problem before i made the swtich from 2.6.24-16-386 -> 2.6.24-18-generic
[12:41] <opt1k> Starnestommy: thanks!
[12:41] <mahesh> starnestommy : i didnt get u, pardon
[12:41] <dns53> mahesh you need flashplugin-nonfree and libflashsupport for pulse audio support
[12:41] <bazhang> quantumelixir, my mistake; gnochm is what you want; apparenly it uses sans font
[12:41] <ubunubi> cherva:: if you have ntfsprogs installed (should be by default)  then   sudo ntfslabel ﻿/dev/DEVICE NameYouWantToAppearInstead
[12:41] <bazhang> quantumelixir, was thinking of cbz files
[12:41] <ubunubi> cherva:: replacing device with your partition/drive that is showing up as Windows
[12:42] <cherva> ubunubi: sec to try
[12:42] <mahesh> dns53:: where to get this libflashsupport and flashplugin-nonfree???
[12:42] <Pici> mahesh: sudo apt-get install libflashsupport flashplugin-nonfree
[12:42] <ubunubi> cherva:: then if you want the name change to take effect immediately, unmount then remount that parition//drive
[12:42] <bazhang> mahesh, enable the repo and install
[12:42] <dns53> mahesh enable the main, restricted, universe and multiverse repo's
 dude. just type it in ur terminal. "sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree"
[12:44] <hugh> installed flashplayer using the tar.gz - still no dice.  any ideas?
[12:44] <bazhang> hugh dont install it that way
[12:44] <Saftool> hello all
[12:45] <hugh> bazhang: k, how?
[12:45] <Saftool> is there anyway to use ubuntu server in a windows env? :)  how do i install that?
[12:45] <Pici> hugh: Is there any reason you arent using the packages in the repositories?
[12:45] <Pici> Saftool: What do you mean?  Like wubi?
[12:45] <bazhang> hugh look at all the instructions for mahesh above
[12:45] <hugh> Pici: following instructions from website
[12:46] <bazhang> hugh always look in ubuntu software repositories first
[12:46] <Saftool> Pici:I just installed it and it only went to command line not xwin etc.. i would rathe rpoint and click to configure stuff than write code i dont know :(
[12:46] <Dezine> I can't get my video driver to install from Hardware Drivers. After I restart and it tries to load it fails and I have to restart.
[12:46] <hugh> bazhang: righto
[12:46] <opt1k> i upgraded to qt4, and i try to compile smplayer, and now i get this error: uic: File generated with too recent version of Qt Designer (4.0 vs. 3.3.8b)
[12:46] <mahesh> pogztimz: it says flashplugin-nonfree package not available
[12:47] <bazhang> hugh enable the main restricted universe and multiverse repos then refresh and install
[12:47] <dns53> mahesh enable the restricted repo and update the sources
[12:47] <unohu> fongkwan: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/31569
[12:47] <bazhang> mahesh, you need to refresh frist
[12:47] <cherva> ubunubi: I did this ( ntfsprogs wasn't installed ), I unmounted it, typed sudo ntfslabel ﻿/dev/sda1 Storage and when I mount it again it is still windows....
[12:47] <Bergcube> How do I go about to get another package included in the respositories for the next release?
[12:48] <bazhang> Bergcube, which package
[12:48] <Pici> Saftool: Oh.  You mean xwindows.  Ubuntu server doesn't come with a GUI by default.  You can install the ubuntu-desktop metapackage, but it doesnt have any real GUI tools for configuring the server stuff... it would just be using Gedit to modify files instead of nano/vi
[12:48] <ubunubi> cherva:: you're sure sda1 is the right partition ?
[12:48] <cherva> ubunubi: yes
 what is ur video adapter?
[12:48] <unohu> !backports ! Bergcube
[12:48] <Dezine> I have an Nvidia 5900 FX
[12:48] <dns53> Bergcube become a motu (master of the universe) and submit a package
[12:48] <unohu> !backport ! Bergcube
[12:48] <Pici> !newpackage | Bergcube
[12:48] <jamus> i had conflict with gnash in webstreams i remuved it and now its working fine (thanx for help)
[12:48] <Bergcube> bazhang~  GnoFract  -  http://gnofract4d.sourceforge.net/
[12:48] <opt1k> i upgraded to qt4, and i try to compile smplayer, and now i get this error: uic: File generated with too recent version of Qt Designer (4.0 vs. 3.3.8b), any help?
[12:48] <mutaku> need help getting sound to work in 8.04
[12:48] <bazhang> unohu, use the pipe | :)
[12:48] <hugh> now i've installed flashplayer for ff3 three different ways and no dice still - sigh
[12:48] <ubunubi> cherva:: pastebin your /etc/fstab
[12:48] <unohu> !backport | Bergcube
[12:48] <Pici> unohu: its not !backports hes looking for anyway though
[12:49] <cherva> ubunubi: In Gparted the label is changed
[12:49] <ubunubi> cherva:: then most likely you need to reboot for the change to take effect
[12:49] <cherva> ubunubi: ok I'll restart
[12:49] <surreal> Does anyone know if a 1gig memory stick will be enough to install / run ubuntu on?
[12:50] <Pici> surreal: definitely
[12:50] <Dezine> surreal, that's what I have
[12:50] <bazhang> hugh try it the ubuntu way outlined above
[12:50] <Saftool> Pici: oh ..... that woudl be tough configuring a firewall liek that :(
[12:50] <surreal> kk, the download is 700 megs was just wondering ^_-
[12:50] <mahesh> bazhang: i did as u said now its downloading...... thankyou dude
[12:50] <hugh> bazhang: ah, i missed those instructions - i just tried it from synaptic
[12:50] <knightwise> i have a problem where i cannot automatically backup files from an sshfs mounted folder
[12:50] <bazhang> mahesh, nice :)
[12:50] <Dezine> surreal, 1 gig memory? You mean hd?
[12:50] <Pici> Saftool: Well, firestarter is a GUI available for gnome for configuring the firewall...
[12:50] <mahesh> pogztimz: thankyou
[12:51] <surreal> a 1 gig memory stick.. usb key.. flash drive w/e you call it
[12:51] <Pici> Saftool: I was thinking more along the lines of there not being an apache configurator or similar.
[12:51] <mahesh> dns53:: i got it thanks
 no problem
[12:51] <Saftool> cool better get started on reading the howto then :)
[12:51] <Bergcube> After looking at the links:  So to sum it up:  The absolutely only possible way is "RTFM and do it yourself".  There is in other words nobody that are already able to do this one could actually TALK with or get gelp from.
[12:52] <Dezine> surreal, I suppose that's enough, probably the minimum
[12:52] <dns53> Bergcube ask around in the motu channel
[12:52] <pogztimz> guys i really need iTALC installed on Dapper Drake. :) i know u guys know how. so pls help me.. lol
[12:52] <mutaku> get weird echo effect from sound in xvid, divx, and youtube. help?
[12:52] <Saftool> Pici: it is so cool that from command line i got it to download and install stuff :) sudo apt-get
 :)
[12:53] <Pici> Bergcube: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages  specifically the "Requesting a new package for Ubuntu" should sort you out.
[12:53] <surreal> does anyone here run ubuntu off of a flash drive?
[12:53] <cherva> ubunubi: the restart helped thanks
[12:53] <ubunubi> !anyone | surreal
[12:53] <ubunubi> cherva:: grats
[12:53] <Bergcube> Pici~  Thanks you so much.  That was genuinely helpful.
[12:54] <surreal> just wondering if a 1gig flash stick is enough to install ubuntu on and figured people that would know are ones that run ubuntu off of a flash drive ^_^
[12:54] <hugh> yay - got flashplayer-nonfree going :)_
[12:54] <legend2440> Bergcube: gnofract4d_3.9-1ubuntu1_i386.deb  doesn't work?
 finally.. gratz :)
[12:54] <ubunubi> surreal:: i'm pretty sure my base install was larger than 1gb..so you might have to do a minimal install from the alternate cd, then install just the packages you need
[12:55] <Pici> surreal: I havent read it, but https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent might have the info you seek
[12:55] <ubunubi> surreal: ubuntu (with gnome) isn't really designed to have that small of a footprint by default since it's a full featured desktop environment. Xubuntu might be a bit smaller
[12:55] <Bergcube> legend2440~  I have no idea.  It does noe show up in my Synaptic.  And I really thought I had all the respositories enabled.
[12:56] <Bergcube> legend2440~  Also, searching on packages.ubuntu.com for "gnofract" gives nothing.
[12:56] <legend2440> Bergcube: its not in repos but you can download it   at   http://sourceforge.net/project/platformdownload.php?group_id=785
[12:57] <Bergcube> legend2440~  Ah, sure.  But then I might as well complie it myself.  Either way it is a hassle every time there is an update.  Better get it into the respositories once than to download a standalone version over and over.
[12:59] <ubunubi> Bergcube: there are *.deb files http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=785 in it's sourceforge dl section for ubuntu
[12:59] <ubunubi> Bergcube: up to 3.9
[13:00] <kamaly> hello guys
[13:00] <ubunubi> Bergcube: whoops sorry. redundant info from legend
[13:01] <Bergcube> ubuntulog~  Yes, I know.  And that is not the point, and that was not my query.  If I really _want_to_ I can get that working or as I said compile it from source.  But that is a daft and unelegant solution, and it would be far better to have it in the repos.  So my wish is not to get Gnofract working: I can do that if a bother living through the hassle.  My wish is to get it into the repo.  And therefore I asked about how one does that.
[13:02] <ubunubi> Bergcube: afaik the program maintainer has to apply to get it put in repo..or host their own PPA repo that you can add to your sources.list
[13:02] <ubunubi> Bergcube: self-hosted PPA repo's are the easiest solution for the maintainer normally
[13:02] <kamaly> hi there...
[13:04] <ubunubi> !paa
[13:04] <ubunubi> !ppa
[13:04] <kamaly> have a small hitch guys..i have an ubuntu mirror on my network...i want to install an application on the client machines automatically without physically doing "apt-get install~"..are there any workarounds...your views r welcome pls...??
[13:05] <joaopinto> kamaly, ssh :) ?
[13:05] <|piter> HELLO
[13:05] <kamaly> ssh is good...prob is these machines are many n on dhcp...lots of work...
[13:05] <robbubuntu> i really need help installing a driver
[13:06] <joaopinto> install a script on them to fetch packages to be installed from a server ?
[13:06] <|piter> I don't have any prolem with Ubuntu. It works fine! I just came here to say hello! :)
[13:06] <kamaly> want an application that i can install on server....point the packages i want installed on the clients....install the client side package that will receive the arguments from server...
[13:06] <offline> hello too piter
[13:06] <offline> :D
[13:07] <robbubuntu> i have a usb wireless device with a linux driver on the CD that came with its box. I dont have internet, how do i install it??? pleasee
[13:08] <robbubuntu> i have a usb wireless device with a linux driver on the CD that came with its box. I dont have internet, how do i install it??? pleasee
[13:08] <joaopinto> kamaly, that can easily be done with scripting, I am not aware of an existing utility for doing that
[13:09] <robbubuntu>  i have a usb wireless device with a linux driver on the CD that came with its box. I dont have internet, how do i install it??? pleasee
[13:09] <xevin> hello
[13:09] <kamaly> yes man...
[13:09] <xevin> i have a important question, regarding SPM..
[13:10] <xevin> Synaptic Package Manager
[13:10] <kamaly> i had a look @ sourceforge...no nice tools to do it...
[13:10] <legend2440> robbubuntu: is there an install or reame file on the CD that give instructions?
[13:10] <xevin> ubuntu hardy,,
[13:10] <legend2440> robbubuntu: is there an install or readme file on the CD that give instructions?
[13:10] <xevin> there are updates, should i always do update everytime an update pop-ups?
[13:10] <ubunubi> xevin:: type your stuff in one big block, don't send it all as separate lines please
[13:11] <joaopinto> kamaly, on the server you have an APT mirror, and all the clients are setup to use that mirror, right ?
[13:11] <xevin> oops! sorry.
[13:11] <ubunubi> xevin:: you should always do the updates marked as _critical security updates_...the others are up to you
[13:11] <ciacon> someway I can't wrap my mind arround this... can someone give me a hint for the following: I have 1600 files that are in order but must be split (at best into folders) in groups of 40 - can someone lend me a hand?
[13:11] <xevin> ubunubi: up to me, means, dangerous?
[13:12] <xevin> its like, ubuntu generic kernel, and some hardware abstraction layer
[13:12] <ubunubi> xevin:: not necessarily. if everything on your system is working the way you want, the "recommended" updates can wait until the next version if you want to guarantee less incompatibilities. however if something is not functioning to your satisfaction and there is a recommended update that says it could potentially fix that issue, then by all means install it
[13:13] <xevin> ubunubi: thanks, this is my first use of *nix..
[13:15] <Ayabara> I want to tell Eclipse to use the sun-java that I installed. What file should I feed to it instead of /usr/bin/java?
[13:15] <jamus> good root bot anybody?
[13:15] <remoteCTR1> how do i set a key combination to lock the screen?
[13:15] <joaopinto> Ayabara, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/EclipseIDE
[13:16] <geeksauce> how do i make use of the themes included with emerald?
[13:16] <remoteCTR1> geeksauce: call emerald-theme-manager in console
[13:17] <Ayabara> joaopinto, thanks
[13:17] <geeksauce> remoteCTR1, i did, however i can't seem to figure out how to apply the themes
[13:17] <legend2440> xevin: since there is no rollback feature i always have a backup of partition  using partimage.  then if something goes wrong i can restore to previous condition
[13:17] <tommy123> hi! i have sort of a problem. im using livecd right now, and i have installed the system. but i have a really important file (modem-driver) that i need to transfer to my installed system. if i reboot, that file will be lost.
[13:17] <xel_> hmm
[13:18] <remoteCTR1> geeksauce: as soon ans you choose one its already applied
[13:18] <geeksauce> remoteCTR1, nothing looks any different though
[13:19] <remoteCTR1> tommy123: now why would that be? store it in the harrdisk like in /home/yourUser
[13:19] <xevin> legend2440: yeah i did that, time is just critical for me to reinstall / restore stuff.. but i guess thats the way it is if it breaks it breaks "Sorry, TY"
[13:19] <remoteCTR1> geeksauce: have you imported themes or are you talking about changing the engine on the edit themes tab?
[13:20] <Pizarro> I'm using Evolution, and I want to change the font size for the Inbox window, but I didn't find any option for that, Can anyone help me?
[13:20] <geeksauce> remoteCTR1, i'm on the "themes" tab, just trying to select a different theme
[13:20] <potato> if i install ubuntu on my XP system, is it stil posibleto make it dual-boot, but have XP as the main os?
[13:21] <remoteCTR1> ok so i guess you dont have an empty field there but you have imported some themes?
[13:21] <potato> im afraid if i install ubuntu, it will always boot to ubuntu.
[13:21] <remoteCTR1> geeksauce: ﻿ok so i guess you dont have an empty field there but you have imported some themes?
[13:21] <joaopinto> potato, if you choose not to delete your windows partition, yes, you will be able to dual boot
[13:22] <geeksauce> remoteCTR1, i believe they were there to begin with
[13:22] <remoteCTR1> potato: if you install ubuntu a boot loader named grub is being installed alongside, if you have a windows installation ob that computer grub creates a menu that allows you to boot both of them
[13:22] <xevin> whats the next release in ubuntu?
[13:22] <awras> #linuxac
[13:22] <tommy123> remoteCTR1:  yeah i thought i could mount my installed system while im using the livecd. i have 4 partition (boot,swap,root,home). i've tried to mount all of them without error.. but i cant see any file?! (sudo mount /dev/sda4 /mnt/home -v -o rw) gives no error.
[13:22] <potato> can i make the menu choose xp by default?
[13:23] <remoteCTR1> geeksauce: i doubt that... anyways if you click (or doubleclick) one the theme should change
[13:23] <xubuntuuser> potato: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst if you are using grub. Edit default=* line (*: number of xp)
[13:23] <remoteCTR1> geeksauce: in case you are running emerald, ever done emerald --replace?
[13:23] <potato> shcweeett
[13:23] <potato> thnx =p
[13:23] <geirha> !intrepid | xevin
[13:24] <geeksauce> remoteCTR1, no, should i try that now?
[13:24] <remoteCTR1> tommy123: and what happens if you cd /mnt/home?
[13:24] <anabolix> can someone help me to make shift and control work in warcraft 3?
[13:24] <remoteCTR1> geeksauce: if you never did thaat you are probably still running metacities, in that case you will of course not see much change when editing emerald themes...
[13:24] <jbroome> .
[13:24] <BoltClock> is there any way of syncing between ubuntu and windows mobile 6.1?
[13:25] <xevin> im using mint, which is from ubuntu hardy, does ubuntu hardy it self, has the compiz installed by default?
[13:25] <geeksauce> remoteCTR1, yep that solved it.  thanks!  by the way, what's metacities?
[13:25] <geirha> xevin: yes
[13:25] <mib> hi.how can i execute a package with .deb
[13:25] <mib> pls help
[13:25] <joaopinto> xevin, yes, but for mint you really should use their support resources
[13:25] <napsy_> Hello. Will I be able to create a fully entrypted home partition using the hardy alternate installation?
[13:26] <napsy_> *encrypted
[13:26] <joaopinto> mib, that is not an executable, is an installation package
[13:26] <joaopinto> mib, and you should randomly install .deb packages
[13:26] <BoltClock> !deb | ﻿mib
[13:26] <tommy123> remoteCTR1: works fine, but then when i use "ls" i cant see anything. and it should be a lost+found folder because im using ext3. any ideas why i cant see anything?
[13:26] <remoteCTR1> geeksauce: metacity is the standard window decoraator, emerald is an alternative
[13:26] <anabolix> can someone help me to make shift and control work in warcraft 3?
[13:26] <mib> jaopinto: i have installed the deb package..just need to double click ?
[13:27] <geeksauce> remoteCTR1, ah, i get it. thanks for your help.
[13:27] <joaopinto> mib, if its already installed, you don't need to doubleclick
[13:27] <remoteCTR1> tommy123: i guess there should even be more or is that partition completely empty? if you dont get any error at all while mounting i have no idea... sry...
[13:27] <remoteCTR1> geeksauce: your very welcome
[13:27] <mib> jaopinto:i mean downloaded
[13:27] <xevin> joaopinto: yes i'm on to there channel too..
[13:28] <joaopinto> mib, yes, doubleclick  should install it
[13:28] <tommy123> remoteCTR1: okay thanks anyway
[13:28] <mib> okie.
[13:28] <mib> thanks.
[13:28] <anabolix> can someone help me to make shift and control work in warcraft 3?
[13:28] <remoteCTR1> tommy123: np
[13:28] <xevin> i hope, broadcomm will not be a problem w/ the new release of ubuntu.. i mean, out of the box..
[13:29] <remoteCTR1> !patience | anabolix
[13:29] <JuJuBee> How do I make my external HD automount on /media/400G ?  It is currently mounting as /media/disk.  However when I go to Storage Media using Dolphin, it shows as 400G
[13:29] <joaopinto> anabolix, not to mention, that your question is wine specific.. for which there is a proper channel you are already informed about :)
[13:29] <supersam001> Hey "sudo timestamp too far into the future" Keep getting this error
[13:30] <anabolix> joaopinto: i asked, and was directed back to ubuntu (which was after i was directed the first time to wine)
[13:30] <fongkwan> can someone please give me some precise direction on how to reinstall my wireless usb, which uses zd1211rw.  It was working until someone suggested that i should switch from 2.6.24-16-386 ->2.6.24-18-generic
[13:30] <fongkwan> please
[13:31] <anabolix> had something to do with other applications using these controls... i think window manager
[13:31] <fongkwan> It was working beautifully prior the switch
[13:31] <fongkwan> now i'm stuck
[13:31] <anabolix> but im new to linux, and have no clue of whats going on :S
[13:32] <remoteCTR1> fongkwan: maybe the module for it isnt being loaded
[13:32] <anabolix> im at the windows manager options... how do i disable all of them?
[13:32] <mib> is tehre any "unstable repo" in ubuntu?
[13:33] <larryking> need help, When you PING some Sources, How can you know that source is good speed for you?
[13:33] <xevin> where can we find the link for new / upcomming releases of ubuntu?
[13:33] <sicx> can someone explain to me how TIMER command works in xchat
[13:33] <sicx> ?
[13:33] <joaopinto> sicx, try asking on #xchat
[13:33] <fumbalah> larryking: Choose one that is close to you
[13:33] <joaopinto> :P
[13:34] <sicx> tnx
[13:34] <BoltClock> is there any way of syncing an htc touch diamond running windows mobile 6.1 with ubuntu?
[13:34] <unohu> xevin: its just in alpha stage ... wont be of much use
[13:35] <supersam001> How do I fix timestamp too far into future?
[13:35] <fongkwan> remoteCTR1, lsmod suggests that it is
[13:35] <remoteCTR1> fongkwan: whats the modules name?
[13:35] <joaopinto> Bogaurd, try http://www.pocketpcmag.com/cms/blogs/27/a_new_adventure_windows_mobile_and_ubunt
[13:35] <joaopinto> ops, i meant BoltClock
[13:35] <Bogaurd> ;)
[13:35] <BoltClock> joaopinto, Bogaurd: :P
[13:36] <xevin> what would be the highlight for intrepid Ibex? if its not to soon to ask ^^
[13:36] <joaopinto> !intrepid | xevin
 thank you, but some time I type ping -c 10 XXX.XXX.XxX  ,there will return 10 message, but between them, there are more than 10 seconds
[13:37] <fongkwan> remoteCTR1, zd1211rw.   One other thing i should ask.  I commented out the first line of the sources.list file, "deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 8.04 ...." but when i apt-get update it still ignores the cdrom.  I'm planning to revert back to the older kernel
[13:38] <mikebo> Does anybody know why totem-xine doesn't play nice with alsa, i mean when using it i can listen to any other sources like rhythmbox
[13:38] <mikebo> *can't
[13:39] <ubunubi> what's the gnome equivalent of amarok?
[13:39] <remoteCTR1> fongkwan: apt-get only acesses the cd if the desired stuff is there and is not older then that that you can get from internet, but that has nothing to do with your wireless prob
[13:39] <jc-denton> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-doc/+bug/235236
[13:39] <jc-denton> hwo do i work around this?
[13:39] <jc-denton> dkms build -m  fglrx -v 8.501
[13:39] <IndyGunFreak> remoteCTR1: if you disable the cd repository, it will get everything online.
[13:39] <jc-denton> does not work
[13:39] <remoteCTR1> fongkwan: what exactly happens? getany errors? what does iwconfig return?
[13:40] <jc-denton> http://rafb.net/p/iTRQ2221.html
[13:40] <remoteCTR1> IndyGunFreak: he wrote it still ignores the cd so he meant re removed the comment
[13:40] <jc-denton> i mean it must be possible to build the latest fglrx on ubuntu
[13:40] <IndyGunFreak> remoteCTR1: ah ok, i must have came in on the tail end of it..
[13:40] <adred> gud day. how do i change the default grub? i have kubuntu and ubuntu installed in two different partitions. currently kubuntu's grub is the default,how do i switch it to ubuntu's?
[13:41] <remoteCTR1> IndyGunFreak: heh np
[13:41] <fongkwan> remoteCTR1, i mean, if you could walk me through on getting my wireless usb working again w/o reverting kernel that'll even be better
[13:41] <anabolix> is it possible to install windows for dual boot, even though i have my entire hard disk partitioned for ubuntu?
[13:41] <nbkr> Hi!
[13:42] <nbkr> Does anyone know how to send and recieve MMS (multimedia messages) with ubuntu and a falcom 75 GPRS Modem?
[13:42] <jc-denton> so any ideas?
[13:42] <IndyGunFreak> anabolix: its certainly easier to install Windows first.
[13:42] <IndyGunFreak> but its posible.
[13:43] <geeksauce> another theme-related question:  the emerald theme i'm using says to use with "baghira", so i downloaded baghira and now i'm not really sure what to do with it
[13:43] <remoteCTR1> fongkwan: well i can of course try i few things with you but usually wireless is the hell complicated... as asked above what do you get if you do iwconfig?
[13:43] <fongkwan> remoteCTR1, the reason y i'm feeling so terrible right now is b/c this problem began with a small issue with compiz fusion and them dudes suggested that i should switch kernel from 386->generic , after that the wireless usb stopped working and i went from 1920x1200 to 640x480
[13:44] <IndyGunFreak> fongkwan: but you have eyecandy now! :)
[13:44] <fongkwan> IndyGunFreak, NOTHING!!!!
[13:45] <remoteCTR1> fongkwan: aw gawd... i know such things... yet still WHAT DOES IWCONFIG RETURN?? hehe
[13:45] <jc-denton> what does "You must run a dkms build for kernel 2.6.24-16-rt (i686) first." mean
[13:45] <IndyGunFreak> fongkwan: ugh..lol, that sucks..
[13:45] <jc-denton> i can only do dkms build for a certain module
[13:45] <adred> gud day. how do i change the default grub? i have kubuntu and ubuntu installed in two different partitions. currently kubuntu's grub is the default,how do i switch it to ubuntu's?
[13:45] <remoteCTR1> IndyGunFreak: i doubt that if he went back to 640x480...
[13:45] <jc-denton> and i installed the kernel sources
[13:45] <historyx> What's up, I'm a new ubuntu user, have a question, I'm not being able to get 2 sound outputs at the same time ( for example XMMS and VLC can't output sound at the same time ), each program should run separetly, any ideas how can i fix it?
[13:46] <fongkwan> remoteCTR1, obviously he is being a jerk, so let's not waste time on him
[13:46] <IndyGunFreak> remoteCTR1: yeah, i was being a smartass. i personally think compiz is over rated... cool to show people, but after 2-3 days, its kinda like.. eh.. why did i go to that hassle again
[13:46] <remoteCTR1> historyx: install and use pulseaudio
[13:46] <IndyGunFreak> thats a pulse audio bug.
[13:46] <remoteCTR1> IndyGunFreak: well i am happy ever after with it...
[13:46] <IndyGunFreak> the beauty of choice.
[13:47] <IndyGunFreak> historyx: i ended up switching to Alsa to fix that problem, a lot of people using pulse have that issue.
[13:47] <historyx> IndyGunFreak, i'm using alsa at the moment
[13:47] <historyx> and I'm having the problem i described
[13:47] <IndyGunFreak> historyx: are you sure, i'cve not heard that prob w/ alsa
[13:47] <geeksauce> apparently baghira is a KDE theme though... where's the setting to change KDE themes?
[13:47] <fongkwan> remoteCTR1, can i pm you please?
[13:47] <IndyGunFreak> lots of times w/ Pulseaudio, never w/ alsa
[13:48] <legend2440> larryking: have you tried the   Select Best Server  option in synaptic?
[13:48] <historyx> IndyGunFreak, is there some kind of configuration for alsa maybe ?
[13:48] <Kartagis> !icqfix
[13:48] <remoteCTR1> historyx: as he said himself above he is trying to be smartass, trust me and use pulseaudio, its a sound server that enables you to have simultaneous access to sound ressources
[13:48] <Kartagis> !icq fix
[13:48] <remoteCTR1> fongkwan: sure you can
[13:48] <IndyGunFreak> historyx: system/pref/sounds.. do you have all the playbacks set to alsa?
[13:48] <historyx> IndyGunFreak,  yes
[13:48] <historyx> remoteCTR1, Thanks for the suggestion
[13:48] <historyx> remoteCTR1, guess i'm going with pulse
[13:49] <remoteCTR1> historyx: np
[13:49] <IndyGunFreak> Kartagis: its fixedi n the new version of icq.
[13:49] <IndyGunFreak> *pidgin
[13:49] <historyx> remoteCTR1, it's already installed, how can i configure it though ? any configuration required?
[13:49] <DJones> !icqbug | Kartagis
[13:49] <ikonia> DJones: it was released yesterday
[13:49] <_saw> how do i check out what java version do i have installed ?
[13:49] <remoteCTR1> historyx: dont forget to change that output device after install in the system/preferences/sound dialog
[13:49] <DJones> Kartagis: I'm sure the fix has been released
[13:50] <historyx> remoteCTR1, it's already installed actually
[13:50] <historyx> i can find it in the dropdown menus
[13:50] <DJones> ikonia: yep, I'd seen that, that factoild probably needs changing to take account of it now
[13:51] <remoteCTR1> historyx: as said look in system/preferences/sound and choose pulse audio sound server for the options that you want
[13:51] <Pizarro> Does anyone use Evoulution?
[13:52] <npope> yes
[13:52] <Pizarro> npope, Do you use Evolution?
[13:53] <legend2440> _saw:  in terminal type   sudo update-alternatives --config java   the one with asterisk next to it is one being used
[13:53] <Pizarro> npope, How the hell can I set up the font size in the Inbox left panel? I can't find any option
[13:54] <_saw> legend2440,           1    /usr/bin/gij-4.2
[13:54] <IndyGunFreak> i thought w/ gmail, yahoo, hotmail, etc, only corporations still used mail clients on a home pc
[13:54] <_saw>  +        2    /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/jre/bin/java
[13:54] <_saw> *         3    /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/jre/bin/java
[13:54] <_saw>           4    /usr/lib/jvm/ia32-java-6-sun/jre/bin/java
[13:54] <FloodBot1> _saw: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[13:54] <Pizarro> npope, the font size there is very big
[13:54] <_saw> what should i choose
[13:54] <nich0s> Is it possible to switch between KDE and GNOME without a fresh install?
[13:54] <IndyGunFreak> nich0s: of course.
[13:55] <IndyGunFreak> !info kubuntu-desktop | nich0s
[13:55] <historyx> remoteCTR1, worked like a charm, thanks
[13:55] <remoteCTR1> historyx: hehe np
[13:56] <legend2440> __saw #3 is good . thats what i'm using and never had a problem
[13:56] <_saw> thank you legend2440
[13:56] <mib> how can i update my current feisty to the latest?
[13:56] <mib> what is the command i should use?
[13:56] <nich0s> IndyGunFreak: I may be (probably am) taking this the wrong way, but are you suggesting that kubuntu desktop is only 44kB? :p
[13:56] <mib> i try apt-get update
[13:56] <mib> but seems still the same
[13:56] <gleison> ola auguem fala portugues por aqui
[13:56] <anabolix> anyone have a good link on "how to dual boot" windows and ubuntu
[13:56] <IndyGunFreak> nich0s: thats only the base package..  it will install a crapload of other packages when you run that command
[13:56] <Pizarro> I only find ONE menu in evolution called "Preferences", but neither of the options ini it are useful to set up the gui apperance
[13:56] <IndyGunFreak> mib: you'll need to update from feisty to gutsy, then gutsy to hardy
[13:57] <BoltClock> !dualboot | ﻿anabolix
[13:57] <dns53> mib: sudo do-release-upgrade
[13:57] <jc-denton> fglrx
[13:57] <mib> must i upgrade to Hardy?
[13:57] <nich0s> IndyGunFreak: How would I go about ridding myself of KDE and getting GNOME?
[13:57] <IndyGunFreak> mib: thats the current version, you can do whatever you want.
[13:57] <gleison> yes
[13:57] <IndyGunFreak> nich0s: i thought you wanted to install kde?
[13:57] <remoteCTR1> mib: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[13:58] <gleison> gnome
[13:58] <mib> would it affect anything my files etc etc?
[13:58] <nich0s> IndyGunFreak: I have Kubuntu right now, but it runs slowly because this is, for lack of a better term, a shiess computer.
[13:58] <IndyGunFreak> nich0s: i see.. you should be able to install gnome and remove kde.... it'll probably take some work though
[13:58] <remoteCTR1> mib: alternately you can use sudo update-manager -c
[13:58] <gleison> ola auguem fala portugues por aqui
[13:59] <remoteCTR1> mib:  of course not!
[13:59] <DJones> !pt | gleison
[13:59] <nich0s> IndyGunFreak: I love me a challenge, would you be able to direct me towards some documentation perhaps?
[13:59] <th0r> nich0s, you might want to consider xfce instead for a computer with limited resources
[13:59] <IndyGunFreak> !upgrade | nich0s
[13:59] <IndyGunFreak> nich0s: sorry, wrong link
[14:00] <IndyGunFreak> nich0s: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/gnome
[14:00] <th0r> nich0s, and there is no real reason to uninstall kde...you can have all of them on the hard drive and use whichever you wish
[14:00] <nich0s> th0r: Oh? Do you have any information about xcfe?
[14:00] <th0r> nich0s, it is the basis of xubuntu
[14:01] <IndyGunFreak> nich0s: i like xfce. how old of a pc are we talking?.. specs?
[14:01] <LonelyAss> anybode here with Acer Aspire 6920 or 8920? Or with audio: Realtek HD Audio ALC889?
[14:01] <zanco79> LonelyAss: yes
[14:01] <keanu> whenever I try to run a copy of rtorrent I compiled, it seems to run for up to 30 seconds, and then says "Killed" - any ideas why it says that?
[14:02] <ftn|voiCe> hello, is anyone able do help me configuring my old 19" monitor probably so i can use a resolution above 480x320
[14:02] <nich0s> IndyGunFreak: Old enough to run Gnome, I would think. P4 2.53 512 RAM.
[14:02] <IndyGunFreak> keanu: why not just use a torrent client thats in the repos.. or use the utorrent in wine, thats a popular option
[14:02] <IndyGunFreak> nich0s: yeah, it should run gnome fine
[14:03] <IndyGunFreak> i've got gnome on a laptop way older than that and it runs fine
[14:03] <nich0s> th0r: I will have to take a look at xubuntu as well. I am trying to avoid a fresh install if I can. :P
[14:03] <IndyGunFreak> kde sucks even on my fast pc.
[14:03] <DJones> nich0s: I run gnome on a 1.2ghz with 512Mb, and that runs fine, so with that spec, you shouldn't have any problems where speed is concerned
[14:04]  * IndyGunFreak considers KDE a linux virus :)
[14:04] <IndyGunFreak> Format and reinstall
[14:04] <nich0s> DJones: Yeah. I am just having issues with KDE... I think there just too much "fluff" for my liking. :P
[14:04] <th0r> nich0s, I would just install xfce from synaptic...no need to uninstall anything.
[14:04] <th0r> nich0s, you will need the xfce4 packages and thunar, the file manager
[14:05] <keanu> IndyGunFreak, the copy in the repos is an older version
[14:05] <keanu> IndyGunFreak, I tried installing it anyway though - it also says "Killed"
[14:05] <th0r> nich0s, also install mousepad...the text editor. All packages for xfce are designed to be small and efficient
[14:05] <IndyGunFreak> nich0s: i'd clean install xfce, gnome, flux, whatever else you want to try, then clean install the one you want...
[14:05] <remoteCTR1> !op | can anyone kick that IndyGunFreak pls? the guy's just trolling
[14:05] <IndyGunFreak> remoteCTR1: ?.. are you a freakin retard?
[14:05] <IndyGunFreak> i've never been a troll here,
[14:06] <IndyGunFreak> if you're gonna make an allegation like that, back it up
[14:06] <elky> both you kids need to back down
[14:06] <jc-denton> i used envy for now
[14:06]  * Myrtti pinches both by their earlobes and sits them in opposite corners
[14:06] <nich0s> th0r: Thanks for the help.
[14:06] <IndyGunFreak> elky: ?.. i never stood up, i have no idea what prompted him being that way
[14:06] <jc-denton> but i don't have any idea what exactly it installed
[14:06] <nich0s> IndyGunFreak: You've been most helpful!
[14:06] <jc-denton> however it seems to work
[14:07] <nich0s> DJones: Thanks for the tips.
[14:07] <elky> IndyGunFreak, calling someone a retard is not welcome no matter what.
[14:07]  * nich0s is off to destroy his computer. :P
[14:07] <IndyGunFreak> elky: calling someone a troll i would think is equally unwelcome
[14:07] <Myrtti> IndyGunFreak: wrondoings of others do not justify yours
[14:07] <Myrtti> IndyGunFreak: move over
[14:07] <exist> hy
[14:07] <remoteCTR1> IndyGunFreak: i meant your self announced smartassing and things like you consider kde to be a linux virus
[14:07] <dns53> can we get back to ubunt?
[14:07] <DJones> nich0s: It was mostly IndyGunFreak that was helping you, he's earned the thanks, not me
[14:08] <Pici> AHEM: This channel is for support.
[14:08] <Myrtti> remoteCTR1: you're heading towards bein muted
[14:08] <remoteCTR1> IndyGunFreak: you ar not helping anyone but producing worthless blabla
[14:08] <IndyGunFreak> remoteCTR1: well, if you don't like it "/ignore indygunfreak" will give you peace
[14:08] <elky> IndyGunFreak, yes, but you've been around long enough to know better.
[14:08] <IndyGunFreak> elky: agreed, but if anyones trolling baiting, its him
[14:08] <remoteCTR1> Myrtti: now why is that?
[14:08] <elky> remoteCTR1, you're not adding any value either at the moment
[14:08] <elky> IndyGunFreak, step down.
[14:08] <remoteCTR1> umm HE used the term not me guys;)
[14:08] <IndyGunFreak> lol, i just told him out to ignore me.
[14:09] <Myrtti> are we done?
[14:09] <IndyGunFreak> i never started.
[14:09] <remoteCTR1> ok guys I am trying to help ppl here, you can grep my name and read the thanksayings
[14:09] <Myrtti> back to support or I'll start whippin.
[14:09] <keanu> IndyGunFreak, any ideas on what's killing it?
[14:09] <remoteCTR1> THIS guy is just bothering but not helping
[14:09] <Myrtti> remoteCTR1: final call.
[14:09] <elky> remoteCTR1, nobody is thanking you for this annoyance.
[14:10] <remoteCTR1> gawd... now its me, thanks guys that was helpful...
[14:10] <IndyGunFreak> keanu: no.. but if its a problem w/ the repo version also, then mayb its a bug int he program, i don't know
[14:10] <LonelyAss> anybody knows how to make "gnome-volume-control" daemon to run with system in tray? It runs from terminal fine for me, but i want autorun in tray
[14:11] <keanu> IndyGunFreak, I doubt it's a bug in the program  - if it was, it'd certainly be fixed in SVN, which I also tried.  I've used rtorrent tons of times, which is what makes this time different
[14:11] <pen> why there is no transparency in flash in FF3?
[14:11] <newbee617> i have problem using wifi on my laptop, anyone help
[14:12] <IndyGunFreak> keanu: well if you've compiled the current version properly, and the version in the repos isn't working.. ....
[14:12] <keanu> is there any way to trace what's killing it?
[14:12] <Shoopuf> How do I find out which version of Sunbird it is in the Add/Remove programs?
[14:12] <mgolisch> what is add/remove programs?
[14:13] <mgolisch> sounds like windows
[14:13] <pen> why there is no transparency in flash in FF3?

[14:19] <neko_> hi people
[14:19] <[Michelangelo]> I don't know how mount it
[14:19] <ubuntu> hi all
[14:19] <keanu> Anyone else have any idea why rtorrent keeps being killed?  Running it on a VPS running Hardy
[14:20] <Pizarro> Is there any other channel where I can ask about specific applications? thanks
[14:20] <tweakt> pen: read up on 'wmode' that's all I can say

[14:20] <unavailable> Pizarro which application?
[14:20] <tweakt> pen: i'm not a flash developer
[14:20] <neko_> do you know how to setup sendmail on an ubuntu server that is behind a router for internet access ?
[14:20] <Gallez> how can i change the contents of the Places menu on the upper bar? (Ubuntu 7.10)
[14:21] <Pizarro> Evoulution
[14:21] <Pizarro> Sorry, Evolution
[14:21] <b4l7424r> in which file is the various device/folder/file permissions stored?
[14:21] <IndyGunFreak> Pizarro: you might try their website and see if they have email support or a forum
[14:21] <neko_> file permissions ?
[14:22] <Pici> b4l7424r: Its stored within the filesystem for each file.  There isnt a master file of all permissions.
[14:22] <Xavura> Everytime I turn on my PC I have to reset my DNS settings and it's annoying, how can I make them save
[14:22] <simNIX> b4l7424r -> no file exists that holds that info - I asume its stored in fs
[14:22] <neko_> what said pici
[14:22] <b4l7424r> ok
[14:22] <Pizarro> IndyGunFreak, ok, I'll check the forum, since nothing resolves my daubts int he FAQ, I have a missing option in the Parameters dialog
[14:22] <neko_> chmod  and chown for changing permission of files
[14:22] <b4l7424r> what if you were to change permissions for a partition, where would that be stored?
[14:22] <Xavura> Also, when Ubuntu is loading, with all the white text on a black  background, one of the tests fails and says something about /etc/fstab
[14:22] <Pizarro> IndyGunFreak, and I have the latest version
[14:23] <DJones> Pizarro: Have a look here, that lists a irc channel for discussion about evolution http://www.gnome.org/projects/evolution/
[14:23] <unavailable> pizarro i hated evolution, and installed thunderbird  --  it even has add-ons to let you check your yahoo free mail
[14:23] <IndyGunFreak> Pizarro: sorry, my evolution experience is surpassed only by my inexperience as an astronaut
[14:23] <puneethbedre> i lurve UBUNTU!!
[14:23] <simNIX> b4l7424r permisoins for a partiton are normaly set in /etc/fstab and are loaded in kernel
[14:23] <neko_> b4l7424r, you may need to have a look to fstab
[14:23] <White_Lightning> puneethbedre: don't we all
[14:23] <unavailable> indygunfreak you can fly?
[14:23] <b4l7424r> ok

[14:23] <Pizarro> unavailable, but, Does Thunderbird connect to Exchange'
[14:23] <Pizarro> ?
[14:23] <unavailable> hmmm
[14:23] <IndyGunFreak> unavailable: maybe your sarcasm meter is low.
[14:24] <neko_> nobody have idea / experience having sendmail working ?
[14:24] <Xavura> simNIX: sorry to like butt in, but you mentioned /etc/fstab and I get an error regarding that when Ubuntu is loading
[14:24] <Pizarro> unavailable, Evolution does, and very quick, that's why I love it
[14:24] <puneethbedre> ﻿ White_Lightning: more than fedora to say...!!
[14:24] <unavailable> pizarro http://fourforces.wordpress.com/2008/02/04/setup-mozilla-thunderbird-to-work-with-microsoft-exchange-server/
[14:24] <simNIX> Xavura: what the error ?
[14:24] <IndyGunFreak> Fedora is a good distro if you like rpm stuff..
[14:24] <Xavura> simNIX: I can't remember exactly what it was, just one of the tests that run on start-up fails
[14:24] <White_Lightning> puneethbedre: That almost goes WITHOUT saying
[14:25] <puneethbedre> ﻿IndyGunFreak: i use fedora and ubuntu both... but spend most of my time on ubuntu... :D
[14:25] <[Michelangelo]> any help is appreciated: ﻿ I need some help here: http://pastie.org/228941
[14:25] <Pizarro> unavailable, Does Thunderbird support public calendars, etc..?
[14:25] <Xavura> simNIX: It says it can be fixed by adding something to /etc/fstab, I think it's something to do with my other HDD which won't mount anymore even someone helped me get it working
[14:25] <Xavura> even though
[14:25] <simNIX> Pizarro: have a look at Sunbird
[14:25] <IndyGunFreak> puneethbedre: well, that gives you a wide range of experience/perspective then..
[14:25] <Danie3> Freeciv require video driver ?
[14:25] <remoteCTR1> Pizarro: if you install sunbird yes
[14:26] <Pizarro> simNIX, remoteCTR1 Is that a plugin or another program'
[14:26] <unavailable> pizarro http://www.mozilla.org/projects/calendar/#download_thunderbird
[14:26] <puneethbedre> ﻿IndyGunFreak: true, i find ubuntu having alot of wide support compared to fedora, but fedora is built at a much higher level
[14:26] <simNIX> Pizarro I dont know  remoteCTR1
[14:26] <remoteCTR1> Pizarro: its an addon
[14:26] <Pici> !offtopic | puneethbedre
[14:26] <puneethbedre> ﻿IndyGunFreak: but i still find ubuntu cus i get stuff much easily!!

[14:29] <zcram> I'm kind of lost, I don't seem to find on the ubuntu www-site where I can get the sources. Any ideas?

[14:30] <dns53> zcram the sources.list or package sources?

[14:32] <Pizarro> Shoopuf, but once donwloaded how can I install it?
[14:32] <negge^> zcram: first you write sudo apt-get build-dep packagename, then sudo apt-get source packagename
[14:33] <Shoopuf> Pizarro: I think we gotta compile it :S I dunno how to do that
[14:33] <noelferreira> to eliminate the keys getting stuck and key repeat bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/124406 - i disabled ACPI in my boot loader. However without ACPI my computer is always changing this brightness level (like every second). So now i can't complete work with or without ACPI. My system is completely unstable. This happens since i upgraded to hardy heron beta. Even if i change Gconf-editor in order not to automaticall
 y change brigthness level  this happens. Please let me now a workaround for this. I used Ubuntu since 'always' and i don't want to change distro now. please let me now a workaround for this. thanks

[14:37] <IndyGunFreak> SolidSlash: oh ok, sorry, not used xfce in a while, and i can't remember..
[14:37] <SolidSlash> IndyGunFreak: I guess it's related to gtkrc file of current gtk theme, but I can't find the solution
[14:38] <IndyGunFreak> SolidSlash: it could be, i really don't know/can't remember
[14:38] <elmer> Is there a screenshot tool that will screenshot an entire web page?

[14:39] <Pizarro> Shoopuf, thanks!
[14:39] <elmer> I would prefer an image file
[14:39] <IndyGunFreak> elmer: not sure if it works for you or not, but what i do, i use Opera.. and go to the page i want to save, then File/Save As.. and file type should be ".mht"... and save it.. kiicker is, you can only open the file in Opera
[14:39] <elmer> IndyGunFreak, wow. That stinks. I don't use Opera. >.<
[14:39] <scottuss> elmer: I was going to suggest similar to IndyGunFreak
[14:39] <IndyGunFreak> elmer: lol, thats the only reason i ever install opera.
[14:39] <timercrack> press "Alt+PrintScreen"
[14:39] <elmer> timercrack, I need the whole page

[14:43] <zcram> yeah... I trust you
[14:43] <zcram> but I'll stay with my opinion
[14:43] <scottuss> Daiske_Ido: Yeah but it's fun for playing about with. But you wouldn't use it on production
[14:43] <Soul_Sample> zippytech: there was some keyboard combination i pressed by accident and enabled that... can't remember what it was though

[15:01] <Billll> I did check my network settings/wireless conenction/atho property. Legion is conencting to coemthing at 62%. So I guess I have to somehow make it connect to my router, or how about anything...
[15:01] <kidbuntu> afief: is it an application or something or what?
[15:02] <gam3r111> how do i uninstall wine
[15:02] <afief> kidbuntu, it's a service running in the background of your Ubuntu installation, it executes tasks on specific times
[15:02] <afief> gam3r111, sudo apt-get remove wine
[15:02] <gam3r111> thanks

[15:03] <gam3r111> thanks and lol
[15:03] <jamey-uk> I installed Ubuntu Desktop 8.04 on my Dell laptop, the wireless works fine but the wired (!) doesn't at all - if I do "ifup eth0" it sends out a DHCP request but doesn't get any responses. The cable is definitely plugged in.
[15:03] <vergil> agreed. Nobody wants to hear you say "touchpad" ever again :)
[15:03] <afief> When I try to play audio or video files my I get no response, the player just stops at frame 1, but when I run flash in my browser it works fine(with sound) What is wrong?
[15:04] <jamus> sorry dude (slipped)
[15:04] <sipior> jamey-uk: is there a dhcp server listening on the other end?
[15:04] <Pici> afief: What type of files are you trying to play?
[15:04] <gam3r111> damn
[15:05] <gam3r111> i reinstalled it
[15:05] <gam3r111> and its still huge
[15:05] <killer> How can I make firefox more readable when using a dark GTK2 theme?
[15:05] <jamey-uk> sipior: yes, this machine was working earlier picking up DHCP and there are other machines plugged into same Gigabit switch
[15:05] <jamus> afief,  it not better to use aptitude over apt-get (anybody  how knows pls comment)
[15:06] <afief> Pici, all kind of stuff, MP3, AVI, OGG, FLAC... there are some other types, but I don't know what they are
[15:06] <Storrgie> has anyone ever created a raid array using mdadm?
[15:06] <Pici> afief: The video and audio fails?
[15:07] <jamus> gam3r111, cant u fix it from aplic/wine/configure wine?
[15:07] <geeksauce> one more time, where do i go to add to the list of programs that launch at startup?
[15:07] <gam3r111> well see
[15:08] <Pici> geeksauce: at login, or at bootup?
[15:08] <bazhang> geeksauce, in system prefs sessions
[15:08] <Billll> question how can I tell if there is a wirless netowkr I can conenct tot hat doesn't require authentication?
[15:08] <gam3r111> my problem is that i made the config screen in wine to big and the way to make it smaller is at the bottom and i cannot see the bottom
[15:08] <Markive> hey all

[15:09] <Mesiox> i accidently deleted my panel.... how do i get it back to the default panels?
[15:09] <Billll> baz: no =P
[15:09] <afief> Pici, the video stops, I can seek through the file, and I see images, but no audio at all, when I leave the mouse I only get the picture I stopped on
[15:09] <bazhang> !resetpanels
[15:09] <unohu> gam3r111: use alt + mouse1 to move the window
[15:09] <Billll> baz: I'll attempt to =P

[15:11] <volmarias> I'm currently using andLinux, which is based off of ubuntu. I need to reinstall it, and I'd like to export a list of everything I have installed via aptitude so that I can reimport it later. Does anyone know if there is a tool that will help me do this? Is this even vaguely reasonable?

[15:14] <LonelyAss> anybode here with Acer Aspire 6920 or 8920 or something like that? Need help with configuring audio: Realtek HD Audio ALC889
[15:15] <gottabeandrew> i like how people say that this "just works" and yet i don't have to go through this on windows.
[15:15] <Crema10> gottabeandrew: its very simple man.. just relax
[15:15] <bazhang> gottabeandrew, it certainly is not for everyone.
[15:15] <gottabeandrew> ok, how do i do it then

[15:16] <gam3r111> jamus
[15:16] <gottabeandrew> i know, i'm sorry
[15:16] <afief> Pici, interesting... it works in mplayer
[15:16] <gam3r111> its still huge
[15:16] <afief> Pici, but not in Totem
[15:16] <gam3r111> and i have no config menue
[15:16] <gottabeandrew> basically, the youtube player isn't working so somebody suggested i have to reinstall flash
[15:16] <gottabeandrew> so i need to know how to do that
[15:16] <jamus> gottabeandrew,  sudo aptitude update&& sudo aptitude reinstall flash
[15:16] <Pici> afief: It could be a codecs issue.  I dont use totem myself, so I'm not sure
[15:16] <joaopinto> gottabeandrew, how did you install it in the frist time ?
[15:16] <Crema10> ok cool, very simple
[15:17] <gottabeandrew> opened up firefox and got that install plugins window so i installed the flash-nonfree one
[15:17] <afief> Pici, well as long as mplayer works I'm fine:D it's more lightweight than totem anyway
[15:17] <gam3r111> i rlly need to fix this problem
[15:18] <Crema10> go to System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager
[15:18] <Crema10> look for nonfree flash
[15:18] <Crema10> uninstall it
[15:18] <gottabeandrew> ok
[15:18] <Crema10> and  then reinstall it
[15:18] <tazsta_linode> hey all im trying to run ssh through corkscrew as our network doesnt allow port 22 outbound and i keep gett a error saying connection refused any ideas on how i can get around this?
[15:18] <D3RGPS31> i know this is the wrong place to ask, but can windows use shortcuts like linux uses shortcuts?
[15:18] <gottabeandrew> yes
[15:18] <Chousuke> what kind of shortcuts do you mean?
[15:19] <Chousuke> symbolic links?
[15:19] <Pici> gam3r111: Have you installed anything with Wine yet?
[15:19] <jamus> gam3r111,  sorry dude i dont wanna mess ur stuff so i cant help u no more
[15:19] <gottabeandrew> windows has desktop, menu, folder etc. shortcuts, yes
[15:19] <D3RGPS31> yes
[15:19] <Chousuke> D3RGPS31: NTFS has support for them
[15:19] <unavailable> pici ok if i wanted to use ports 25 and 110 for mail would there be a problem?
[15:19] <Pici> gam3r111: floodbot is not a person.
[15:19] <joaopinto> D3RGPS31, ntfs does support them, but there is no utility on windows to manage them
[15:19] <Chousuke> D3RGPS31: they're not supported in any GUI though, so you need a cli tool
[15:19] <Chousuke> D3RGPS31: there's junction.exe in the sysinternals toolset
[15:19] <Pici> !windows | D3RGPS31, everyone else
[15:20] <joaopinto> D3RGPS31, and better ask on ##windows
[15:20] <gam3r111> pici how did u no i klicked it
[15:20] <D3RGPS31> thanks =D
[15:20] <Mesiox> !automate
[15:20] <Pici> gam3r111: Because I'm psychic.
[15:20] <Pici> gam3r111: Now, did you install anything with Wine?

[15:24] <jamus> benn caching up for it for like one week in desktop pc
[15:24] <sandman> anyone can help me out?
[15:24] <gam3r111> how to uninstall wine
[15:24] <kwtm> If we want to use Compiz in Kubuntu, do we install the package "compiz" (which is not installed by default)?  Or do we only need to install "compiz-kde" (which *is* installed by default)?  I can't seem to get any Compiz effects with the default config.
[15:24] <joaopinto> Billll, pleas read your router's documentation on how to reset the password, this is not the proper channel to get help with the router passwd reset
[15:25] <joaopinto> gam3r111, just remove the wine package from the package manager
[15:25] <Billll> yeah i'm reading =P
[15:25] <jamus> gam3r111,  use sudo aptitude -help for command list
[15:25] <b4l7424r> my ubuntu install got borked after i tried to change the read/write permission for my windows partition using gksu nautilus and rightclicking, choosing properties and so forth
[15:25] <EugenMayer> are there any soloutions known for the 1000ms response/ping problem with Intel Ethernet Gigabit LANs ?
[15:25] <gottabeandrew> ok, so i reinstalled the flash plugin and youtube still doesn't work
[15:25] <sandman> kwtm chk out the compiz fusion channel on freenode...for exclusive help
[15:26] <jamus> gamer
[15:26] <gottabeandrew> do you want a screenshot?
[15:26] <kwtm> sandman: I didn't realize there was a compiz fusion channel!  Thanks for the tip.  What's the exact name, "#compiz fusion" with a space in the name?
[15:26] <karan> hello
[15:26] <jamus> gam3r111,  its better thanapt-get for some unknown vage reason :)
[15:26] <scream_sayonara> hello im trying to convert an .nrg file to an .iso but when i put the command in the terminal it just comes up with the program info.... ~why~..
[15:26] <sandman> compiz-fusion
[15:27] <gottabeandrew> hello?
[15:27] <karan> would anyone know how to increase mouse sensitivity past the max allowed in settings?
[15:27] <Shoopuf> I'm trying to compile something (Sunbird 0.8) and I've never compiled anything successfully before... I downloaded the build-essential and automake packages but when I'm in the sunbird directory after un-gzing it I type "./configure" but I get the messaeg "bash: ./configure: No such file or directory"
[15:27] <jamus> gottabeandrew,  wait man i know wasup
[15:27] <karan> i just converted from windows and i'm used to high sensitivity
[15:27] <sandman> karan..go to mouse settings in system>preferences
[15:27] <Pici> Shoopuf: read the INSTALL and README files within the new directory, it might not use ./configure
[15:27] <gottabeandrew> cool jamus
[15:27] <karan> sandman: yeah i did that, i need it to go hire than the max
[15:28] <jamus> gottabeandrew,  remove gnash its colliding
[15:28] <gam3r111> wjamus what will that have to do with anything
[15:28] <gam3r111> ***jumus
[15:28] <jamus> gottabeandrew,   happend to me 2 hours ago
[15:28] <gottabeandrew> ok, what does gnash do?
[15:28] <Junito> hi
[15:29] <Pici> gam3r111: It seems that Wine has changed since I was last familiar with it, I'm not sure how to revert the settings without losing everything that you've installed.  #winehq should be able to help you more.
[15:29] <Crema10> gottabeandrew: google it
[15:29] <jamus> gottabeandrew,  gnash is flash  too so they have conflict (utub works fine with flash)
[15:29] <fongkwan> Does anyone here have success and experience in installing fglrx drivers with ATI hd series ?
[15:29] <sandman> karan: not sure how to do it otherwise
[15:30] <gottabeandrew> gnash isn't installed lol
[15:30] <Junito> someone know how can i deactivate the attraction of windows when i use Beryl, it's hard move windows with flur and this attraction
[15:30] <gam3r111> pici
[15:30] <jamus> gottabeandrew,  r e m u v e gnash
[15:30] <gam3r111> i dont mind un installing everythin
[15:30] <ASULutzy> fongkwan: My desktop uses the fglrx drivers, they were pretty easy to install, other than the fact that I had to write my own script to rewrite my mtrr tables to fix a memory remapping issue that only occurs on 64-bit while trying to use more than 3.2 GB of ram ;)
[15:31] <jamus> gottabeandrew,  search in installed apps gor ''flash''
[15:31] <jamus> gottabeandrew,  to see what u have for flash
[15:31] <azzozhsn> Hi, what's the easist way to install vmware?
[15:31] <Pici> gottabeandrew: from a terminal: sudo apt-get remove gnash && sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[15:31] <leachim6> hey
[15:31] <leachim6> what is the name of the ubuntu-updater program so I can run the gui from the terminal
[15:31] <Pici> gam3r111: uninstall all your programs you installed in Wine, then delete ~/.wine/
[15:31] <joaopinto> azzozhsn, searching for a tutorial on goole :) since there is no repository for it
[15:32] <jamus> azzozhsn,  u have it?
[15:32] <gottabeandrew> flashplugin-nonfree, and thats it
[15:32] <gam3r111> ok
[15:32] <jamus> ok
[15:32] <azzozhsn> yeah, thanks
[15:33] <Shoopuf> Pici: The readme file pointed me to the Mozilla website which didn't say anything about compiling in Linux. >_< ...
[15:33] <leachim6> I just need the name
[15:33] <jamus> gottabeandrew,  sudo aptitude update&& sudo aptitude reinstall flash
[15:33] <Pici> Shoopuf: Are you sure that it needs to be compiled at all?
[15:33] <Pici> jamus: flash is not a valid package name, that won't work
[15:33] <gottabeandrew> ok, that worked
[15:33] <gottabeandrew> i know, i seen somebody put that before
[15:33] <gottabeandrew> it works now
[15:34] <gottabeandrew> so for future reference, if anybody asks, tell them to do that ;-)
[15:34] <gottabeandrew> no actually, this is what i put in the terminal - ﻿sudo apt-get remove gnash && sudo apt-get install flashplugin-nonfree
[15:34] <jamus> azzozhsn,  find in what dir it is  and install using commandline
[15:35] <Crema10> good job gottabeandrew
[15:35] <LonelyAss> anybode here with Acer Aspire 6920 or 8920 or something like that? Need help with configuring audio: Realtek HD Audio ALC889
[15:35] <giraldi> #ubuntu-it
[15:35] <jamus> gottabeandrew,  aptitude is better (handles uninstall better )  use that instead of apt-get
[15:35] <Shoopuf> How would I execute this file "run-mozilla.sh" in terminal?
[15:36] <Pici> jamus: aptitude and apt-get are largely the same.
[15:36] <fongkwan> ASULutzy, I can't get it to work. System->admin->Hardware drivers, after enabling "Proprietary ATI accelerated drivers" when I reboot, it forces (prompts) me to load in low graphics mode
[15:37] <Pici> jamus: And they handle the same since they both use dpkg
[15:37] <joaopinto> Shoopuf, sh run-mozilla.sh
[15:37] <ASULutzy> fongkwan: What card do you have, and how much ram do you have?
[15:37] <fongkwan> ASULutzy, 2GB, HD2600.
[15:38] <ASULutzy> Pici, jamus, gottabeandrew: I think back in the day aptitude was considerably better with dependencies and what not, but now they're pretty much the same, right?
[15:38] <db92> my monitor is meant to sync @ 75hz refresh rate but my only option in the config is 60hz. how do i change this? :P
[15:38] <Pizarro> Does anyone managed to make Thunderbird to work with an Exchange server?
[15:38] <leachim6> what is the name of the ubuntu updater program
[15:38] <leachim6> so I can run it from the command line
[15:38] <Pici> ASULutzy: Thats what I hear.
[15:38] <ASULutzy> fongkwan: And you're using Hardy?
[15:38] <jamus> Pici,  -- http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/debian-26/apt-get-vs.-aptitude-363365/
[15:38] <ASULutzy> leachim6: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[15:38] <joaopinto> leachim6, update-manager
[15:39] <fongkwan> ASULutzy, tes
[15:39] <fongkwan> yes
[15:39] <sandman> hi..i am unable to access any partitions from nautilus and cannot opne the terminal
[15:39] <ASULutzy> jamus: That's from 3 years ago?
[15:39] <sandman> can anyone please help me out?
[15:39] <ASULutzy> fongkwan: Have you tried using Envy to install the drivers?
[15:39] <joaopinto> jamus, that article is from 2005
[15:39] <Pici> jamus: That was 2005, things have changed.
[15:40] <molgrum> is it just me or does the LMMS package lack a menu shortcut?
[15:40] <fongkwan> Nope, but I was told that fglrx should work fine with my card
[15:40] <Mediapirate> Hello
[15:40] <Mediapirate> I had a problem when I tried to install ubuntu...
[15:40] <Mediapirate> http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh173/Media_pirate/0TgS5T0aVe8xehd7wvvwwH5qvjTCdk.jpg
[15:40] <ASULutzy> fongkwan: It should, but sometimes Envy does a better job at installing the fglrx drivers than whatever way Hardy does it ;)
[15:40] <ASULutzy> !envy | fongkwan
[15:40] <jamus> lol thats what happen when u on web in 4 a.m sorry guys
[15:41] <azzozhsn> is there any software same VMware ? what is it name?
[15:41] <ASULutzy> azzozhsn: virtualbox
[15:41] <joaopinto> ASULutzy, hum ? envyng installs a different driver version, the recommended install is the default driver provided from the hardware drivers menu
[15:41] <Mediapirate> does anyone know what might cause that?
[15:42] <ASULutzy> joaopinto: Well, that driver isn't working for him, so I figured let Envy have a go?
[15:42] <fongkwan> ASULutzy, Do i have to uninstall ALL fglrx and related packages before attempting ENvyNG?
[15:42] <jamus> azzozhsn,  wait i got it ,sec
[15:42] <Pici> Mediapirate: Yikes, i've never seen anything like that before.
[15:42] <azzozhsn> is it good? can I find it in synaptic?
[15:42] <joaopinto> ASULutzy, sure, but your comment "Envy does a better job at installing the fglrx drivers" is a out of context
[15:42] <Mediapirate> Pici: I thought it was strange as well....i rebooted and same result
[15:42] <ASULutzy> joaopinto: Ah, you're right, sorry trying to figure out why my Windows VM is hosed beyond belief.
[15:43] <fongkwan> ASULutzy, Do i have to uninstall ALL fglrx and related packages before attempting ENvyNG?
[15:43] <rafaell> #ubuntu-br
[15:43] <ASULutzy> ﻿fongkwan: I think when you install Envy-ng one of the options will be to uninstall ATI drivers, then after it uninstalls you can have it install ATI driver
[15:43] <gam3r111> how do i uninstall all wine apps easily
[15:43] <jamus> azzozhsn,  virtualbox ose
[15:43] <ASULutzy> gam3r111: You could probably just delete the wine folder if you really wanted to
[15:44] <gam3r111> ho
[15:44] <gam3r111> **how
[15:44] <azzozhsn> thanks
[15:44] <gam3r111> ﻿ASULutzy how
[15:44] <ASULutzy> gam3r111: Well, if that's definitely what you want to do, I guess you could just do rm -rf /home/$USER/.wine/
[15:44] <ScaryFast> god I hate ubuntu irc apps. I just want mirc! :P
[15:45] <gam3r111> i have to delete all aine apps but some of the wont delete
[15:45] <ScaryFast> too bad I installed it and it's crashing
[15:45] <joaopinto> ScaryFast, xchat is friendly
[15:45] <ASULutzy> ScaryFast: xchat isn't too bad,
[15:45] <gam3r111> some wine programs wont uninstall
[15:46] <gam3r111> i need help
[15:46] <db92> ScaryFast, tbh i always preferred chatzilla since i used firefox, mirc got on my nerves for some reason i cant remember :P
[15:46] <ASULutzy> gam3r111: if you really want to be sure to get everything you can put sudo in front of the command I gave
[15:46] <ASULutzy> gam3r111: But be very careful, if you type it in wrong you could hose your whole system.
[15:46] <jamus> gam3r111,  i suggest u take some  chiil time (not for smtn bad from ur side and try again refreshed)
[15:46] <kjdro> hello
[15:46] <joaopinto> ASULutzy, you are not expected to need sudo to rm a dir inside your home dir :)
[15:47] <Mesiox> any 1 here know a macosx bar dock i can use?
[15:47] <IdleOne> ScaryFast, have you tried Xchat?
[15:47] <db92> ScaryFast, also give irssi a try if you like terminal :PP
[15:47] <Mesiox> for linux
[15:47] <bazhang> awn Mesiox
[15:47] <ScaryFast> I'm in xchat now
[15:47] <bazhang> !awn | Mesiox
[15:47] <jamus> getting stuck requiers a  break to release the mind block
[15:47] <ScaryFast> can it do multiple servers at a time?
[15:47] <Mesiox> bazhand, anything else?
[15:47] <ScaryFast> I couldn't find a way :P
[15:47] <ASULutzy> joaopinto: Agreed, but he just said that rm -rf ~/.wine/ didn't work, so my assumption was something in there is owned by root
[15:47] <IdleOne> ScaryFast, of course
[15:47] <bazhang> kiba-dock maybe others Mesiox
[15:47] <db92> Scarey, xchat-new-server tab ....
[15:47] <IdleOne> ScaryFast, click on the xchat tab ( top left )
[15:47] <db92> ScaryFast, *
[15:48] <Mesiox> bazhang: there was 1 other dock i hurt bout.
[15:48] <db92> Scarey, sorry for highlight :P
[15:48] <ScaryFast> I just have to figure it out. This is my first day using linux basically. besides a live-cd.
[15:48] <ASULutzy> Oh boy... I let chkdsk run on my VM, and now it's just sort of sitting here.... This could be a bad day at work if windows won't boot :'(
[15:48] <joaopinto> ASULutzy, he didn't said the command said, it just said not all the soft was uninstall, which maybe a different matter, like .desktop files not being removed
[15:48] <bazhang> Mesiox, what name
[15:48] <joaopinto> ops.. "...the command failed..."
[15:48] <IdleOne> ScaryFast, xchat is not "linux" but I see your point.
[15:48] <Mesiox> bazhang: cant quite remember.
[15:48] <gam3r111> jamus i rlly need help
[15:48] <flyfish> hi
[15:48] <Chrysalis> is there a way to access shared windows folders in a local network? as i understand it samba is for samba shares only? i guess with samba on the windows coputer aswell?
[15:48] <ScaryFast> well this is x-chat gnome
[15:48] <jamus> gam3r111,  take 5 to think about it and u will know ( zen bull but it works )
[15:48] <bazhang> Mesiox, what does apt-cache search dock turn up
[15:48] <ScaryFast> maybe I need the normal xchat
[15:49] <gam3r111> zen bull?
[15:49] <negge^> Chrysalis: with Samba you can access folders shared from Windows machines and vice versa
[15:49] <IdleOne> ScaryFast, sudo apt-get install xchat-common
[15:49] <joaopinto> gam3r111, how do you identify that you have still wine apps installed ? Do you have menu entries ?
[15:49] <W8TAH> hi - -dumb question i know -- whats the command to add a user to a group?
[15:49] <ASULutzy> gam3r111: What happens when you do exactly this. Click Applications -> Accessories -> terminal, then type rm -rf /home/$USER/.wine/
[15:49] <dimebar> ScaryFast: you can connect to multiple servers in xchat-gnome too
[15:49] <gam3r111> ﻿joaopinto i have a wine folder under apps
[15:49] <joaopinto> W8TAH, man usermod
[15:50] <ScaryFast> ubuntu is way nicer than I thought it would be and way nicer than any other flavor of linux I ever tried before. I keep moving the windows around... :P
[15:50] <W8TAH> joaopinto, thanks - major brain cramp today
[15:50] <ASULutzy> gam3r111: If you don't want wine anymore, sudo apt-get purge wine
[15:50] <gam3r111> asuluzy nothing
[15:50] <Chrysalis> negge^: well i didnt i didnt set any usernames or passwords usually i just join the local group on windows to access those
[15:50] <IndyGunFreak> W8TAH: easiest way is system/admin/users and groups
[15:50] <W8TAH> IndyGunFreak, this is cli only -- on a server
[15:50] <IndyGunFreak> W8TAH: gotcha..
[15:50] <jamus> gam3r111,  ''there is no wine ,if u look clearly ull see that it is urself that u cannot uninstall '' :DD
[15:50] <negge^> Chrysalis: I've never used samba but it's supposed to work
[15:50] <Mesiox> ScaryFast: i just started using ubuntu / linux all together, it is awesome!
[15:50] <joaopinto> gam3r111, just rm -rf ~/.local/share/desktop-directories
[15:50] <ASULutzy> gam3r111: Nothing is good, that means it erased everything that was in your wine folder successfully. Now if you want to actually uninstall wine completely, you can do sudo apt-get purge wine
[15:50] <ASULutzy> jamus: that's not really helping ;)
[15:50] <sandman> hi..how do i fix fsck UUID errors from terminal?
[15:51] <amenado> W8TAH-> then modify the /etc/passwd and  /etc/group
[15:51] <W8TAH> amenado, thanks
[15:51] <gam3r111> yea there is no wine installed but i need to delete programs that were under wine
[15:51] <jamus> maybe i should take a five too
[15:51] <gam3r111> some of them wintr un in stall
[15:51] <dimebar> ScaryFast: look in edit, preferences, networks
[15:51] <Mesiox> bazhang: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xC5uEe5OzNQ << see the ubuntu. see the dock? thats the dock im talking bout
[15:51] <joaopinto> amenado, you shouldn't manage passwd and group files directly, it is safer to use the proper commands for it
[15:51] <ScaryFast> yeah, I joined another server
[15:51] <bazhang> Mesiox, looking now
[15:51] <bcardarella> Does anybody else have problems with Transmission? None of my torrents will connect... they just idle and eventually time out. (and I know that they are good torrents)
[15:52] <ScaryFast> in mirc in windows I can hit F1 and it runs a script and joins 2 servers and a dozen channels
[15:52] <ScaryFast> I guess I just miss that :P
[15:52] <IndyGunFreak> bazhang: i think its avant, i've saw that video before.
[15:52] <joaopinto> Scarey, you will need to learn xchat scripting ;)
[15:52] <ScaryFast> yes
[15:52] <bazhang> IndyGunFreak, think you are right
[15:52] <dimebar> ScaryFast: you can set which servers/channels to join automatically using the networks tab in prefs, otherwise yeah learn xchat scripting :)
[15:53] <IndyGunFreak> Scarey: xchat will automatically join two servers.. when i sign on, i join 3... 2 channels each on 2 servers, and 3 channels on 1 server
[15:53] <bazhang> Mesiox, that is beryl and awn (beryl is now compiz-fusion btw)
[15:53] <IdleOne> ScaryFast, click on Xchat again and then Network List. you can edit your server settings there ( add channels to join and servers to auto connect to )
[15:53] <ScaryFast> or I could reboot and see why mirc under wine crashes when I try to use the edit script window :P
[15:53] <Mesiox> bazhang, see that bar tho?
[15:53] <hiptobecubic> what is the difference between curl and wget, functionality wise?
[15:53] <bazhang> Mesiox, earlier version of awn iirc
[15:54] <IndyGunFreak> ScaryFast: why would you use mirc in wine?... thats silly,
[15:54] <ScaryFast> I don't have those options idleone. irc, edit, network, discussion, go, help
[15:54] <Mesiox> bazhang: orly?
[15:54] <bazhang> Mesiox, cairo-dock?
[15:54] <Mesiox> IndyGunFreak: why would it be silly?
[15:54] <smallfoot-> IndyGunFreak, mIRC has alot of functionality
[15:54] <Chrysalis> how do i temporarily run a deamon? /etc/rc.d/deamon start?
[15:54] <IdleOne> ScaryFast, your time would be better spent helping to make xchat better by writing addons/plugins
[15:54] <IdleOne> ScaryFast, install xchat-common from the repositories
[15:54] <sandman> hi..how do i fix fsck UUID errors from terminal?
[15:54] <IndyGunFreak> smallfoot-: and xchat doesn't?
[15:54] <ScaryFast> I did, brb on it :P
[15:55] <sandman> is there any other channel for ubuntu help??
[15:55] <idefix_> so, it is impossible to run java under ubuntu :/
[15:55] <joaopinto> !patience | sandman
[15:55] <ASULutzy> !patience | sandman
[15:55] <joaopinto> idefix_, what is your problem ? I am using java from ubuntu without any problems
[15:55] <idefix_> joaopinto, tell me please how you installed it
[15:55] <smallfoot-> IndyGunFreak, I guess it does too...
[15:56] <idefix_> I tried installing it from synaptic
[15:56] <idefix_> and from normal installation files from the web
[15:56] <erUSUL> !java | idefix_
[15:56] <joaopinto> idefix_, I have installed the openjdk-6-jre package
[15:56] <IndyGunFreak> smallfoot-: linux native software will almost always work better than anything running in wine, no matter what it is.. always best to use linux native aps
[15:58] <db92> how can i play mp4s on ubuntu?
[15:58] <joaopinto> !codecs | db92
[15:58] <IndyGunFreak> db92: w/ the proper codecs, yes. i use vlc to play them, they play fine
[15:59] <bahadunn> howdy
[15:59] <khermans> db92, vlc
[15:59] <oscar-rivas> helo
[15:59] <khermans> db92, sudo aptitude install vlc && vlc
[15:59] <oscar-rivas> hello
[15:59] <oscar-rivas> i need some help
[16:00] <IndyGunFreak> oscar-rivas: you'll have to check in at mind-reading 101
[16:00] <ScaryLptp> okay, I'm in normal x-chat now and it provided me with stuff xchat-gnome did not
[16:00] <bahadunn> I am using irssi and I noticed that when I have terminal tabs open and I go to switch windows in irssi with alt+n instead I am taken to the next terminal tab
[16:00] <ScaryLptp> and I am happier now, but it still needs work
[16:00] <gam3r111> anyone know how to install aim in ubuntu
[16:00] <bahadunn> any ideas how to fix that?
[16:00] <oscar-rivas> hello

[16:00] <oscar-rivas> i need some help for configure a vpdn
[16:00] <khermans> gam3r111, pidgin
[16:00] <IndyGunFreak> ScaryLptp: well what kind of work do you think it needs?
[16:00] <Mesiox> does wine run the latest windows live messenger?
[16:00] <khermans> oscar-rivas, check out openvpn
[16:00] <oscar-rivas> ok
[16:01] <bazhang> Mesiox, check appdb
[16:01] <abchirk> Mesiox should be so... but why you don't use kopete or pidgin?
[16:01] <gam3r111> no
[16:01] <achilles> does anyone know why when trying to send a in browser message in firefox 3 that it won't send but instead tries to download it. same problem with yahoo can't send email???

[16:01] <ASULutzy> gam3r111: lol, but pidgin has everything aim has plus more?
[16:02] <IndyGunFreak> bazhang: aim used to have a linux version.. not sure if it stil does or not.
[16:02] <gam3r111> yea but i want aim
[16:02] <bazhang> IndyGunFreak, not sure either
[16:02] <khermans> gam3r111, aim is a protocol
[16:02] <IndyGunFreak> bazhang: i used it a LONG time ago, we're talking like Mandriva 7.0...
[16:02] <bazhang> gam3r111, then get the deb or start compiling

[16:03] <ASULutzy> gam3r111: If you actually want aim for linux. There's like, an aim 1.5, but it's terribad. You really should use pidgin.
[16:03] <joaopinto> !caps | gam3r111
[16:03] <idefix_> joaopinto, XXXX java version? what do they mean by that?
[16:03] <IndyGunFreak> gam3r111: #knowitalls #genius #rocketscientists would be a good place to start

[16:04] <joaopinto> gam3r111, please stop repeating yourself
[16:04] <achilles> ASUlutzy: ﻿do u know why when trying to send a in browser message in firefox 3 that it won't send but instead tries to download it. same problem with yahoo can't send email???
[16:04] <IndyGunFreak> gam3r111: then i would suggest writing AOL and asking them to write their crappy software for linux, or release the source code so you can.
[16:04] <gam3r111> i just want aim to try out nd stuff but idk how to install it
[16:04] <someone_1> After writing my username, it tells me :Authentication failed

[16:06] <ASULutzy> achilles: No idea ;)
[16:06] <Myrtti> rambo3: #ubuntu-ops for that
[16:06] <gam3r111> how do i run it
[16:06] <IndyGunFreak> !compile | gam3r111 this will help you so you don't come back and bug us w/ compiling questions
[16:06] <Myrtti> IndyGunFreak: that was hardly necessary
[16:07] <IndyGunFreak> Myrtti: well you know he's gonna coem back here and repeat 50 times how do i compile aim
[16:07] <gam3r111> fuck it i'll use pidgin
[16:07] <IndyGunFreak> was just beating him to the punch
[16:07] <Pici> !language | gam3r111
[16:07] <michalxo> can anyone help me, how to get working compiz+hibernation+suspend on toshiba a200?
[16:07] <Myrtti> gam3r111: thank you
[16:07] <joaopinto> !language | gam3r111
[16:07] <White_Lightning> IndyGunFreak: that was a bit harsh. compiling can be a bit of a daunting task
[16:07] <bazhang> gam3r111, no cursing
[16:07] <IndyGunFreak> White_Lightning: i know that, so i was just giving him the leg up on what he was facing, and see that Pidgin/Kopete, were way better options
[16:08] <IndyGunFreak> maybe my satire isn't as well rounded as i thought
[16:08] <gam3r111> sorry
[16:08] <White_Lightning> IndyGunFreak: I'm not saying don't help him out, I'm saying don't act like it was a stupid question, because it wasn't
[16:08] <bazhang> White_Lightning, okay
[16:08] <IndyGunFreak> White_Lightning: lol, i never said it was a stupid question.,. get off your high horse
[16:08] <karan> Shadow: sorry waht was your reply to my mouse question? my computer restarted
[16:08] <ScaryLptp> wubi - Ubuntu installer for windows rocks by the way. It's the only reason I'm trying Ubuntu right now
[16:09] <ScaryLptp> because I can't be bothered to resize a partition and stuff :P
[16:09] <karan> ScaryLptp: the installer does that too
[16:09] <guyvdb_> hi, how can i determine the installed version # of my glib?
[16:09] <gam3r111> how do i get normal buddy sounds in pidgin
[16:09] <hiptobecubic> has anyone here gotten SPORE to run under ubuntu?
[16:10] <bazhang> gam3r111, /join #pidgin
[16:10] <michalxo> guyvdb_, synaptic or aptitude show glib...(tab,tab)
[16:10] <ASULutzy> gam3r111: Linux is not Windows. Every question you've asked so far can basically be summed up by that.
[16:10] <guyvdb_> michalxo thx
[16:10] <michalxo> can anyone help me, how to get working compiz+hibernation+suspend on toshiba a200?
[16:10] <karan> anyone know how to increase mouse sensitivity past the ones in settings
[16:10] <jamus> ScaryLptp,  yap its good but if u use only linux is something else
[16:12] <IndyGunFreak> http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/resetpassword
[16:13] <IndyGunFreak> oops.. bazhang see above, i knew i found it somewhere a while ago.
[16:13] <bazhang> IndyGunFreak, haha thanks-->the bot was acting up
[16:14] <shader> hola, I'm having trouble getting a davicom DM9009 10/100 nic to work on ubuntu server. The module loaded, and ubuntu recognized the card, but I'm not getting dhcp, and lsmod says that dmfe (the driver) isn't being used by anything. Now what?
[16:14] <c0mrade> is there an effective way of limiting users bandwith usage .. like quota is used for disk usage ?
[16:14] <robvandamn> hey.. I am using Xubuntu.. using Firefox 3.. I installed flash and restricted.. still I cannot watch online movies like youtube and stuff.. :( can anyone tell me how to fix this?
[16:14] <karan> anyone?
[16:15] <dbdii407> rob :)
[16:15] <dbdii407> PM me
[16:15] <dbdii407> maybe i can help ;)
[16:17] <mumu> how can i copy the whole content of one folder to another folder? I tried "cp -r /sorce /target" but this creates a "source" folder inside a "target" folder. I would like to copy the content. How can i achieve that?
[16:17] <slayton> so I installed kubuntu-desktop and i want to remove it. what is the best way to remove all the KDE stuff while leaving the gnome installation intact
[16:17] <ericpersson> what version of ubuntu refers to edgy?
[16:17] <slayton> mumu cd into the folder
[16:17] <Pici> ericpersson: 6.10 and it is no longer supported as of April 2008.
[16:17] <joaopinto> mumbles, cp -a /source/* /target
[16:17] <slayton> mumu type cp -r * /target
[16:17] <Dark_Shadow2> greetings, how can i "bring up" the network interface before boot, at the position local-premount, to cp a file from an nfs server?
[16:17] <ericpersson> Pici: and the latest stable is?
[16:18] <Pici> ericpersson: 8.04 aka Hardy Heron
[16:18] <jamus> robvandamn,  use flash to see streams (try to have only that for flash objects couse they will collide )
[16:18] <joaopinto> ericpersson, www.ubuntu.com is also a good place to check
[16:18] <ericpersson> Pici: i see, i wonder if my mythtvbox should survive an "upgrade"... :)
[16:18] <mumu> slayton, is there no command that works from everywhere?
[16:18] <ericpersson> joaopinto: been around there but didnt really find what i needed..
[16:18] <slayton> sure try:
[16:19] <Pici> ericpersson: If its running 6.10 you'll need to upgrade to 7.04, then 7.10 then 8.04.  There is not an upgrade path right from 6.10
[16:19] <slayton> mumu cp -r source/* dest/
[16:19] <joaopinto> robvandamn, you should install the flashplugin-nonfree package
[16:19] <ASULutzy> mumu: cp -r /source/* /dest/
[16:19] <ericpersson> Pici: I see.. 7.04 is dapper?
[16:19] <mumu> ok, thank you
[16:20] <bazhang> ericpersson, that is 6.06
[16:20] <efdeeWRK_> can i get uswsusp to use a place other than the swap partition to store my hibernation file ?
[16:20] <efdeeWRK_> i'm on an EEE with a relatively small swap partition
[16:20] <Pici> ericpersson: Are you using dapper?
[16:20] <Snowball> hi
[16:21] <ericpersson> Pici: seems to be edgy..
[16:21] <Pici> ericpersson: The version number corrisponds with the year and month that the version was released.  2008.04 is April 2008.
[16:21] <bazhang> efdeeWRK_, dont need swap for that see www.eeeuser.com wiki and #eeepc
[16:21] <ericpersson> Pici: i see..
[16:21] <Snowball> I need help please ....  I want to install a software (mixxx)  but I get a problem with the dependencies and I do not know what to answer
[16:21] <Snowball> http://pastebin.com/d1a8cdfe4
[16:21] <rafaell> #ubuntu-br
[16:21] <efdeeWRK_> bazhang: i'll check it out. it was telling me i couldn't hibernate cause of too small swap so i figured :)
[16:21] <Pici> !upgrade | ericpersson this might help you out
[16:21] <efdeeWRK_> thanks
[16:22] <Pici> rafaell: /j #ubuntu-br

[16:23] <idefix_> 2.6.15-52-386 what version is that? is that Ubuntu 8.04 or later?
[16:23] <joaopinto> sandman, sudo apt-get install mysql-server
[16:23] <joaopinto> sandman, as for the netbeans integration, whatever that is, ask on #java
[16:23] <Shoopuf> does Hardy Heron come with Compiz-Fusion?
[16:24] <joaopinto> Shoopuf, yes
[16:24] <Shoopuf> joaopinto: how do i change the settings i dont see it anywhere
[16:24] <sandman> thnks joaopinto
[16:24] <joaopinto> !compiz | Shoopuf
[16:24] <idefix_> IcedTea is a good alternative for Java, isn't it? but it has a bug :(
[16:24] <Shoopuf> thanks
[16:24] <joaopinto> idefix_, which bug ?
[16:25] <Storrgie> how do i change the label of my drive?
[16:25] <Storrgie> right now it is 164.2GB
[16:25] <arvernes> Hello. Is there a way to connect a windows xp computer running pcanywhere from an ubuntu client running Terminal server client?
[16:25] <sobersabre> hi guys. I am trying to search for instructions to setup a machine with 2 displays, 2 keyboards and 2 mice - to allow 2 people work in parallel on 1 computer.
[16:25] <idefix_> joaopinto, it's all over the internet! there's a bug in it
[16:25] <chris_> well... I'm not getting much help in #debian
[16:25] <joaopinto> arvernes, just if there is a pcanywhere client for linux, never heard of it
[16:25] <sobersabre> 1. is this possible to setup ?
[16:26] <chris_> anybody willing to try to help me in here w/ debian?
[16:26] <sobersabre> 2. is it a documented thing ?
[16:26] <bazhang> chris_, once you install ubuntu yes
[16:26] <Storrgie> ﻿i would like to change my drive label, so it doesnt show up as 164.2GB but how can i do that?
[16:26] <sobersabre> and, yes, we're talking ubuntu 8.04
[16:26] <joaopinto> idefix_, I have no issues with it, please note that you maybe looking into an old issue, not present on the current version
[16:26] <oscar-rivas> ok
[16:26] <oscar-rivas> i installed openvpn
[16:26] <__chris> can anyone suggest a nice way to get to PHP 5.2 from Ubuntu 6.06 LTS (aptitude upgrade php5 takes me to 5.1.x)
[16:26] <oscar-rivas> what should i do
[16:27] <oscar-rivas> how configure it
[16:27] <rambo3> !backports
[16:27] <Sylphid|work> sobersabre, one option is an NX server and clients
[16:27] <arvernes> joaopinto: :-( is there another way ? using vnc ? I guess the windows xp machine run vnc, but I can't check as it is far 1500 miles from here
[16:27] <joaopinto> sobersabre, eventually that is possible running 2 X sessions with 2 different configurations, but dont ask me for the details :P
[16:28] <oscar-rivas> some help, to configure the openvpn
[16:28] <spiritssight> Does any one know of a good xrandr GUI that will make changes to xorg.conf file?? please help!!!
[16:28] <chris_> bazhang, I can't get it to install on this server for w/e reason so I was forced to Debian... the other two servers are Ubuntu
[16:28] <joaopinto> arvernes, if the machine has vnc or remote desktop, yes you can connect to it from Ubuntu
[16:28] <oscar-rivas> someone can help me please... i need configure the openvpn
[16:28] <bazhang> chris_, you might try #linux
[16:29] <arvernes> joaopinto: remotely, is there a way to check whether or not the xp machine run vnc ?
[16:29] <fuffwork> i'm having a problem with my ubuntu networking - i set my eth0 to use dhcp (which I know is working as I tested it on a laptop) and whenever i boot the ubuntu machine, eth0 fails to come up, and in my messages log i see errors such as eth0: dma_rwctrl[some#] dma_mask [64-bit]      udev: renaming network interface eth0 to eth6
[16:29] <Xavura> How do I manage my bookmarks (Places > Bookmarks)
[16:29] <joaopinto> arvernes, yes, try to connect to it...

[16:29] <adante> hi
[16:30] <adante> is there a way to save the state of my gnome panels?
[16:30] <Storrgie> I Would like to know how to name my hard drives
[16:30] <Storrgie> can anyone help?
[16:30] <joaopinto> arvernes, but you need to know the vnc user/pass, which is not usually associated with a system account
[16:30] <adante> everytime i add/remove a screen or change res or whatever it seems to mess up
[16:30] <arvernes> joaopinto: i know the user id and pass for pcanywwhere,
[16:31] <cemunal> i want to make network between ms xp ( it is in vbox ) and my system ( ubuntu ) but how?
[16:31] <Xavura> Can anyone tell me how I manage my bookmarks (Places > Bookmarks), when I right click on them it just launches 'em
[16:31] <joaopinto> arvernes, again, vnc and remote desktop are not related to pcanywhere, please keep it out of the equation
[16:31] <spiritssight> help needed with xrandr
[16:32] <spiritssight> any ideas which room would be good to go to

[16:32] <michalxo> spiritssight,
[16:32] <arvernes> joaopinto: ok, at least a "vncviewer machine.dyndns.org" should at least ask for an user id and a password ?

[16:35] <someone_1> anyone familiar with PAM problems?
[16:35] <spsneo> what to do If my computer switched off without shutdown?
[16:35] <aven> joaopinto:  thanks, I'll give it a try
[16:35] <IndyGunFreak> someone_1: thats pretty specific, you're probably gonna have to seek help from the PAM developers
[16:36] <spsneo> what to do If my computer switched off without shutdown?, is it harmful for hard disk
[16:36] <spsneo> ?
[16:36] <someone_1> yeah, may be
[16:36] <someone_1> i though some other people had the same problems
[16:36] <someone_1> of not able to log after installing PAM
[16:36] <IndyGunFreak> someone_1: its still not an ubuntu issue, so you're not gonna get much help here.
[16:37] <IndyGunFreak> spsneo: how did it switch off?.. most the time this isn't gonna be a big deal
[16:37] <laeg> hi how do i bring up my gnome config?
[16:39] <sobersabre> Sylphid|work: tell me what is NX server ?
[16:40] <insomnia_> is it possible to reinstall ubuntu (clean format), leaving some space to install windows after?
[16:40] <yogahnee> can anybody hint me some guides to chroot in a cross developing scenario?
[16:40] <SeveredCross> insomnia_: I would do it the other way around
[16:40] <bazhang> insomnia_, best to install windows first
[16:40] <SeveredCross> Install Windows first, then Ubuntu.
[16:40] <sobersabre> yogahnee: what are you trying to do ?
[16:41] <insomnia_> bazhang, after installation i should defragment windows, then install ubuntu? or no need for defragment?
[16:41] <yogahnee> I have an 64bit ubuntu and need to compile some old 32bit code that only compiles on gcc 3.2-3.4
[16:42] <Chousuke> !chroot
[16:42] <bazhang> insomnia_, not sure about windows; linux needs none though :)
[16:42] <yogahnee> thanks
[16:42] <sobersabre> joaopinto: I understand this is possible over 2 ports.
[16:42] <sobersabre> joaopinto: I am looking for somebody who's tried it - does it eat a lot of resources ?
[16:43] <Storrgie> can someone help me set up my drives?
[16:43] <laeg> how do i bring up my gnome config in ubuntu? 'wm config' - i need to adjust alt+click
[16:43] <joaopinto> sobersabre, never tried it myself
[16:43] <ASULutzy> insomnia_: ext3 drives don't really have a fragmentation problem as long as there's a decent amount of unused space on the drive. And Windows shouldn't be that fragmented after just installing it I wouldn't think, of course it will degrade over time
[16:44] <Storrgie> can someone help me setup my drives!
[16:44] <sobersabre> Storrgie: this last sentence will never help you to get anybody to help you setup your drivers...
[16:44] <spsneo> IndyGunFreak: my UPS is old, its not working properly
[16:45] <spsneo> IndyGunFreak: if this happens for quite some time
[16:45] <spsneo> then is it a problem?
[16:45] <Storrgie> sobersabre: my drives, i want to mount them all and give them names
[16:45] <slayton> narf!
[16:45] <KoolD> ﻿how do i know if i have Berkley DB installed??
[16:46] <hiptobecubic> is there a setting file or something for network manager?
[16:47] <Storrgie> how can i label my hard drives?
[16:47] <hiptobecubic> my wireless only works with wicd right now, but it worked with networkmanager before
[16:47] <spsneo> what to do If my computer switched off without shutdown?, is it harmful for hard disk
[16:47] <ericpersson> hiptobecubic: are your user a member of the netdev group?
[16:47] <hiptobecubic> ericpersson, no idea i'll check.
[16:48] <ericpersson> hiptobecubic: i fixed my networkmanager yesterday by adding me into it..
[16:48] <slayton> spsneo, no just boot it back on
[16:48] <hiptobecubic> strangely, while it's trying ot connect, i have internet access just fine
[16:48] <ASULutzy> spsneo: Just turn it back on, it might ask to run fsck, if it does, just let it do its thing
[16:48] <itai-michaelson> hi-how do i change the resolution in hardy?
[16:48] <spsneo> slayton: ASULutzy : and if this happens for quite some time then?
[16:48] <Storrgie> this should be an easy thing to do why cant anyone help me name my hard drives and mount them?
[16:48] <laeg> how do i bring up my gnome config in ubuntu? 'wm config' - i need to adjust alt+click
[16:49] <ASULutzy> spsneo: Just let it run fsck
[16:49] <spsneo> ok
[16:49] <mohbana> hi
[16:49] <djhash> spsneo: An improper computer shutdowm, for example power going out, or pulling plug or anything of that sort.. can mechanically damage your hard drive.. and render it unusable.
[16:50] <Pici> laeg: Therer is no global gnome config. Either look in System>Preferences or if you are using compiz, you might need to install compizconfig-settings-manager to change the mouse settings
[16:50] <mohbana> what's the plugin that allows me to open the terminal on any window i am browsing in with nautilus?
[16:51] <hiptobecubic> no that didn't work
[16:51] <djhash> spsneo: make sure you don't let it happen, but actually shutting the computer down, or by placing a UPS to be able to properly shutdown the computer if power goes out.
[16:51] <ASULutzy> spsneo, djhash: This is true, but generally it's not the end of the world, just turn it back on. If it boots up just fine, don't sweat it at all, if it asks to run fsck, let it run fsck

[16:52] <ernesto_>  hi, i have a big problem this is what i get when i try to load the sound server "unable to connect to sound server" any ideas on how to fix this problem?
[16:52] <djhash> ASULutzy: the key phrase "if it boots up"<----
[16:52] <hiptobecubic> ericpersson, i just did. It's too strange. i'm on wireless right now, but when it times out and says that it couldn't connect, i'll lose connection
[16:52] <djhash> :-)
[16:52] <mohbana> hi, what's the plugin that allows me to open the terminal on any window i am browsing in with nautilus?
[16:52] <ericpersson> hiptobecubic: sounds really strange..
[16:53] <hiptobecubic> but right now, while it's still "trying to connect" everything seems to work fine.
[16:53] <maks> want to open xorg.conf with root. how?
[16:53] <hiptobecubic> i'm really confused...
[16:53] <ericpersson> hiptobecubic: can you perhaps have something compeeting with networkmanager to control the wireless card, so it becomes kind of a race condition?
[16:53] <hiptobecubic> maks sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[16:53] <bahadunn> how come some programs do not show up when you search for them in add/remove programs?
[16:54] <hoarycripple> Storrgie, http://felipec.wordpress.com/2006/12/28/automounting-a-storage-device-with-gnome/
[16:54] <hiptobecubic> ericpersson, no idea. what should i be looking for?
[16:54] <hoarycripple> Storrgie, check that for your drive mounting issue
[16:54] <bahadunn> for example I searched for pwgen but it cannot be found but if I do aptitude search pwgen there it is and so I have to install it with aptitude
[16:54] <Pici> laeg: Then I'm not sure, sorry.
[16:54] <raheem> mohbana: http://www.themedepot.org/itemdetail.php4?id=298 may be helpful
[16:54] <maks> thx :)
[16:54] <ericpersson> hiptobecubic: not sure really... I had some boot scripts controlling the connection before using network-manager but that was on debian..

[17:05] <ASULutzy> td123: Wubi really shouldn't be all that much slower than a native install unless the file is very highly fragmented (which could be possible)
[17:05] <ikonia> chakir: then ask and someone will tell you
[17:05] <jamus> chakir,  its in terminal -- its command line

[17:06] <spikemcc> check up there
[17:06] <td123> ASULutzy: because this slowness reminds me of windows :(
[17:06] <joaopinto> td123, a good benchmark would be to use hdparm -t, the major performance should be at the disk I/O
[17:06] <chakir> ikonia, NVIDA X Server Settings

[17:07] <asdasdasdasd> ikonia > console  > grub > there
[17:07] <ikonia> asdasdasdasd: from the live cd ?
[17:07] <ASULutzy> td123: Wubi shouldn't run that much slower than a native install. Maybe your hardware is just old? The only thing I can think of that would make Wubi run significantly slower than a native install is fragmentation. You could try defragging your hard drive in Windows
[17:07] <asdasdasdasd> yue
[17:07] <asdasdasdasd> yes
[17:07] <Jaseem> hey any one to help?
[17:07] <Jaseem> I can't use internet.
[17:07] <ASULutzy> !anyone | Jaseem
[17:07] <joaopinto> ASULutzy, wubi should run slow also because it runs over an ntfs driver, and not raw I/O like it does with a real FS
[17:08] <ikonia> asdasdasdasd: and you %100 only have 1 disk

[17:08] <ASULutzy> joaopinto: Hmmm, yea that's true. Still, the overhead shouldn't be that huge (ie I wouldn't expect a native install to run 100% faster)

[17:14] <djhash> KenBW2: http://localhost/thefile.php
[17:15] <ASULutzy> Jaseem_: Probably because no one knows the answer, or because they missed the question. That's how it goes in a busy IRC channel, while asking here you could also try the forums for help

[17:15] <jamus> update them to ''latest drivers '' and maybe it will help
[17:15] <ikonia> asdasdasdasd: can you look at $mount_point/boot/grub/device.map please.
[17:16] <ASULutzy> azexian: How did you install the drivers?
[17:16] <ikonia> Jaseem_: why would you say that ?

[17:20] <asdasdasdasd> ok
[17:20] <asdasdasdasd> i can just write grub to mbr ?

[17:24] <Seven_Six_Two> Jaseem, you can't connect to your broadband? are you using a dumb modem, routed modem or dumb modem with router?
[17:24] <Jaseem_> That is a good answer if anybody had replied to my question. But now it is not the case.

[17:45] <Pici> Xavura: Because your router is giving you other dns servers? You can add a line to your /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf   with the following:  prepend domain-name-servers xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx xx.xxx.xx.xx;
[17:45] <zyx386> Pici, i search your link complet, but dont found nothing about gconf
[17:45] <Jaseem> I am using live cd. I haven't installed it yet.
[17:45] <Seven_Six_Two> Jaseem, ok try running that from the live cd
[17:46] <Xavura> Pici: then I won't have to go to network settings > then unlock it then edit the dns servers it chose?
[17:46] <stansmith> Yea
[17:46] <Xavura> well it choses 2 of them right, but the 3rd (well first) is wrong and causes loading sites etc. to take forever
[17:46] <Xavura> with the dns look-up
[17:46] <Pici> Xavura:
[17:46] <Pici> Xavura: indeed, it should fix that
[17:46] <gottabeandrew> i'm back again
[17:46] <Jaseem> any thing else like dhclient? When I came here last time, someone told me to run sudo dhclient after showing him the ifconfig result.
[17:46] <Xavura> I'll give it a try
[17:46] <gottabeandrew> websites are stopping working all over the place.
[17:47] <Pici> zyx386: Sorry, I gave you the wrong link.  See the first comment here: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/38066
[17:47] <Xavura> Pici: so I add that to the very end?
[17:47] <Xavura> that bug is so a duplicate
[17:47] <Seven_Six_Two> Jaseem, I don't know. I need to know what the output is first. you can run ifconfig from a live cd. your ip address will tell me if your modem is bridged or not
[17:48] <Jaseem> k. i did it when i tried ubuntu inside my windows, is that enough?
[17:48] <Jaseem> I have the result with me.
[17:48] <Seven_Six_Two> Jaseem, as long as the physical setup is the same
[17:48] <zyx386> Pici, thanx
[17:49] <ksoviero> i need help installing the svn of cheese
[17:49] <Jaseem> i haven't changed my router. But when i did it ubuntu was inside windos, now it is in the cd.

[17:50] <gottabeandrew> youtube videos weren't showing up earlier but then somebody showed me something to type into the terminal which uninstalled gnash and installed flash player (i had it installed then uninstalled it before then) and then it worked again. now it's stopped working. also not working are the images of people at http://tengaged.com/game/6811 and the entire page at http://app.sliderocket.com/app/sliderocket.aspx . all of these things are 
[17:50] <Seven_Six_Two> Jaseem, can you run ifconfig from the cd please? I don't know how virtualization affects networking
[17:50] <ksoviero> how do you compile from a svn repo?
[17:51] <Jaseem> But my time will end by then. Let me try it tomorrow.
[17:52] <Seven_Six_Two> Jaseem, ok. and just for future reference. please do full nick at the start of every line so we can follow. And if you're asked to do a command, just do it and the troubleshooting will go faster.
[17:52] <Seven_Six_Two> Jaseem, because I asked for output from ifconfig a number of times and still haven
[17:52] <Eric7> ok i think i see whats wrong
[17:53] <Seven_Six_Two> Jaseem, haven't seen any ip address
[17:53] <Eric7>  sudo ln -s /usr/lib/j2sdk1.5-ibm/jre/bin/libjavaplugin_oji.so /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/plugins
[17:53] <ice_cream> lo; is there a relatively easy way to fix speed of cpu, or lower its speed if temp reaches a certain point?
[17:53] <Eric7> is the command for an older version of java
[17:53] <Jaseem> There is only one ip in my older resul.
[17:53] <Eric7> what should it be for java 6?
[17:53] <ice_cream> not sure if these things have been changed since 7.10 or so version of ubuntu
[17:53] <raheem> Seven_Six_Two: i believe he is in windows right now .. can't run ifconfig right now ;)
[17:53] <zyx386> Pici, yet worked fine and thanx again
[17:53] <Seven_Six_Two> raheem, he said he's using a live cd already
[17:54] <Jaseem> See ya

[18:00] <michalxo> guyz, can anyone write me, what's the problem between nvidia 173.14 driver and ubu HH?
[18:00] <gottabeandrew> i can see the advantage of using ubuntu
[18:01] <LonelyAss> michalxo: seems like no problem... i'm using it, all is ok
[18:01] <gottabeandrew> because on windows, i am forced to just surf the web with no real limitation. but on ubuntu, i'm constantly reminded of the awesomeness of the system cause i have to keep reinstalling flash player once every hour.
[18:01] <gottabeandrew> :P
[18:01] <giacomo_carissim> im having trouble mounting my cdrw drive.  nautilus (which is kinda messed up) gives me an error: Unable to mount cdrom0, mount: block device /dev/scd0 is write-protected, mounting read-only
[18:02] <michalxo> well, I cant get GLX to work with nvidia-linux=x86.... propietary driver even cant correctly run X
[18:02] <s`s> gottabeandrew: Ubuntu is more secure, more stable, runs faster, can be changed in any way, is without limitations as far as what you can change... there are a lot of benefits. you just need to jump a few hurdles along the way
[18:02] <vergil> gottab: funny, I've never had this particular problem with flash
[18:02] <obf213> hey im using dual monitors and I have the most peculiar behavior with firefox 3. when im move firefox to my laptop, which is being used as the extension, all th drop down menus for example and rss feed, appear on the larger monitor!
[18:02] <daekdroom> Flash is fine here, except it crashes firefox somewhat often
[18:02] <s`s> gottabeandrew: and I'll agree with virgil that I've never had or heard of that particular issue with flash
[18:03] <obf213> daekdroom, do you think that was an updates fault
[18:03] <daekdroom> obf213, which one?
[18:03] <obf213> the flash
[18:03] <daekdroom> It wasn't working since very well since the beginning
[18:03] <obf213> daekdroom, when i first got ff3 flash crashed it every now and then now its all the time
[18:03] <vergil> gottab: at this point, I'd almost recommend you throw firebug extension in, just to see how things are loading.
[18:03] <obf213> ff2 rarely every crashed because of flash
[18:03] <vergil> But that's probably overkill.
[18:04] <daekdroom> I installed Hardy at Alpha 5 and Adobe Flash crashes FF3 somewhat often
[18:04] <fragolino> ciao
[18:04] <vergil> I'm taking a stab here, and wondering if gnash left some configuration files in your homedirectory as well. You might want to do an ls -a ~/ and see if there are any stragglers
[18:04] <LonelyAss> michalxo: did you add DISABLED_MODULES="nv nvidia_new" to your /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common before installing?
[18:04] <daekdroom> Sometimes I even have to move to Epiphany to do something
[18:04]  * delcoyote hi
[18:04] <djhash> hi.. if I have a 64 bit processor.. is it recommended to install the 64bit kernel?!
[18:05] <michalxo> LonelyAss, no... i didnt know about something like this
[18:05] <daekdroom> djhash, depends on the system setup and what you're going to use in it.
[18:05] <vergil> djhash: you'll see a slight performance benefit, but in general use sense, if you're under 4gb ram there's no huge advantage
[18:05] <LonelyAss> michalxo: so: sudo apt-get nvidia-installer uninstall , then add, then install driver again
[18:06] <spikemcc> djhash mostly not
[18:06] <eth01> :(
[18:06] <Kohlrak> i did something really stupid with my screen resolution. Is there a command line thing that i could use to open up the menu since my system is covered with icons?

[18:06] <djhash> spikemcc: ease of use? can you please elaborate..

[18:07] <gottabeandrew> how do i make it so it wont break
[18:07] <djhash> gottabeandrew: ductape?!
[18:08] <spikemcc> 32 bits could use more than 4 go of ddr better than 64 bits with a little tweak
[18:08] <djhash> spikemcc: aah.. ok.. thanks
[18:08] <spikemcc> let say I don't recommand 64 bits for now ... if your not a scientist ...
[18:08] <djhash> gottabeandrew: try apt-get --clean or something like that
[18:08] <Invisionfree> Hi, I have done of regex install of .*opengl.* and done google and forum searches .. I still get no results when I `locate gl.h` .. What else can I do>?

[18:11] <Invisionfree> /usr/include/GL/gl.h
[18:11] <Invisionfree> I get that in locate gl.h
[18:11] <michalxo> LonelyAss, does it matter which version i'll install? (if official from nvidia site, or propietary driver?)
[18:11] <joaopinto> Invisionfree, you need libgl1-mesa-dev
[18:11] <gottabeandrew> why are you called invisionfree may i ask?
[18:11] <gottabeandrew> are you one of the people who make the invisionfree boards?

[18:18] <joaopinto> Invisionfree, the bzflag version available on the repositories is the latest
[18:18] <Pici> gottabeandrew: dont ask to ask, just ask.
[18:18] <gottabeandrew> how come i have had an uncountable number of problems which can't be fixed and yet other people obviously don't cause they still go around using it?
[18:19] <Invisionfree> joaopinto: 2.0.12? Besides, I'm compiling an older one :<
[18:19] <Xavura> gottabeandrew: You're unlucky :P but the good thing is they're probably all fixable, given a bit of patience on your part
[18:19] <joaopinto> according to the game's site, the .12 was just to fix a building system bug, something that does not affect the result

[18:19] <gottabeandrew> its near impossible
[18:19] <Pici> gottabeandrew: If you're having issues that seem to be bugs, we reccoment that you file them in launchpad so that the developers can work on fixing them.
[18:19] <joaopinto> Invisionfree, well.. there is people which loves to burn cpu, not very green minded :P
[18:20] <Xavura> You're probably getting less problems than you would be on Windows, I know I am
[18:20] <gottabeandrew> but out of all the people reporting bugs, why would they choose to fix mine?
[18:20] <isle86> hi guys, I have a pb setting up my crontab
[18:20] <Saturated> hello
[18:20] <gottabeandrew> and also, would i have to wait until the next version for my bugs to be fixed?
[18:20] <Pici> gottabeandrew: It depends on how serious they are.
[18:21] <Saturated> have gone through the faq and whatever I could find on the community support
[18:21] <gangsterlicious> codethief: there should be a line start with "Default" in your /boot/grub/menu.lst
[18:21] <Invisionfree> gottabeandrew: And sometimes they'll release a patch to fix it until the next version comes out, I think.
[18:21] <gottabeandrew> right, i uninstalled flash player again (6th or 7th time now today?). should i install adobe flash player, swfdec player for adobe/macromedia flash or gnash swf player?
[18:21] <legend2440> codyt07: there is a package called startupmanager in synaptic that has an option to choose default OS to boot to

[18:21] <Saturated> I have a samsung 1080p that I am trying to use as a monitor

[18:22] <Invisionfree> Pici: But that's no fun!

[18:26] <koop> hey people, im having problems with the GDM theme, I cant change it, it asks me for the user password and I can enter but cannot change setting, it does not save them... any ideas???
[18:26] <snmpee> Invisionfree a make can take a very long time depending on what you are compiling
[18:26] <Pici> Invisionfree: as long as things are scrolling by on the screen, yes, it can take a while
[18:26] <Invisionfree> snmpee: BZFlag, and it's done (FINALLY)
[18:26] <eth01> whitman: .
[18:26] <isle86> Pici: I run "crontab -e", write in it the right (I suppose) commands, then save, and check if the command is well run, and no
[18:26] <joaopinto> Invisionfree, yes it is expected to take that long
[18:27] <snmpee> did anyone have something for me to start with about why i can't enable visual effects?
[18:27] <bluelight> firefox3 address bar defaults to one of my youtube bookmark.  how to disable search lookup from book mark? i can't tell if it's look up is from bookmark or from history

[18:27] <Pici> isle86: what time arguments are you using?
[18:28] <gottabeandrew> Pici: ok, for flash it says i'm using application/x-shockwave-flash and application/futuresplash
[18:28] <koop> cant change GDM settings, how do i solve this??
[18:28] <whitman> eth01?
[18:28] <michalxo> hello, so after adding nv nvidia_new to restricted modules, it works even worst... both driver wont load X corretly.. now I run 800x600 :-/
[18:28] <Pici> gottabeandrew: Okay, and what kind of flash pages is it breaking on and can you describe what you mean by breaking?
[18:29] <eth01> whitman: is the connection you connecting to freenode from your *own*?
[18:29] <isle86> Pici: 19 20 * * * /usr/local/bin/mycommand_file
[18:29] <whitman> eth01, yep, why?
[18:29] <eth01> whitman: oh.
[18:29] <legend2440> snmpee: open System>Administration>Hardware Drivers  is there a box in there to enable video card drivers?
[18:30] <Pici> isle86: And when do you expect that to be run?
[18:30] <nownot> wtf !22 is shortcut for sudo updatedb?
[18:30] <eth01> whitman: call 150 for a new modem :-)

[18:30] <rdz> hi all. since the upgrade to hardy, i get an error when trying to mount samba shares. the file /etc/fstab wasn't touched, but when i do 'mount -a' i get: mount error: could not find target server. TCP name colossus/software not found
[18:30] <rdz> No ip address specified and hostname not found
[18:30] <joaopinto> nownot, no, !nn call the nnth command from your bash history
[18:30] <snmpee> michael_buckbee: amd64 or x86?
[18:31] <michalxo> nownot, !22 is your history 22nd cmd
[18:31] <nownot> joaopinto: is there a way to do it where that doesnt do that
[18:31] <whitman> eth01, i don't get it...
[18:31] <battlesquid> is there another way to start X than to write startx (from TTY and i cannot boot).
[18:31] <eth01> whitman: pm
[18:31] <snmpee> legend2440 no there is not
[18:31] <gottabeandrew> Pici: if i go on http://app.sliderocket.com/app/sliderocket.aspx it breaks. by breaks, i mean it doesn't show up the flash stuff but just shows the screen full of grey. when i go on youtube, it then shows the youtube videos as just grey boxes without the video in sight.
[18:32] <michalxo> LonelyAss,  , so after adding nv nvidia_new to restricted modules, it works even worst... both driver wont load X corretly.. now I run 800x600 :-/
[18:32] <battlesquid> when i use startx it doesn't present the ubuntu user login screen
[18:32] <greenfixhx6> I have to be root just to fdisk -l my hdd?
[18:32] <isle86> Pici: at 8. 19pm
[18:33] <gottabeandrew> Pici: can you try going on that site and tell me if it breaks for you.
[18:33] <Pici> gottabeandrew: What architecture are you running? 64bit?
[18:34] <nownot> ok serisly is there a way to make !** not call my bash history?
[18:34] <nownot> *seriously
[18:34] <gottabeandrew> Pici: I have absolutely no clue what that means. tell me how to find out.
[18:34] <isle86> gottabeandrew: I tried your link and it works fine here
[18:34] <Pici> isle86: I'm not sure if its required, but I always restart the cron service after making changes to my crontabs.  Also, you are aware that doing crontab -e as your user will make that process run as your user and not as root.
[18:34] <bluelight> how to tell thunderbird to number all my messages, say from 1 to 100?
[18:35] <Pici> gottabeandrew: can you tell me the output of uname -a ?
[18:35] <shader> hey all, I'm having network trouble. Symptoms: nic is recognized, and the correct driver is loaded, but not used. I can't get network or dhcp. any ideas?
[18:35] <greenfixhx6> fdisk -l /dev/sda1 "Cannot open /dev/sda1" <-- ??????
[18:35] <gottabeandrew> Pici: Linux andrew-laptop 2.6.24-19-generic #1 SMP Wed Jun 18 14:15:37 UTC 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[18:35] <Pici> gottabeandrew: Ah... 64 bit indeed.
[18:35] <axisys> i have a doc file that is 131584 bytes in size.. i exported it to pdf it shrinked to 119119 bytes in size.. how can I shrink it to 102400 bytes ?
[18:35] <isle86> Pici: yes, if I want that crontab to be run as root, I have to run "sudo crontab -e", I guess
[18:35] <axisys> i used openoffice export as pdf
[18:36] <gottabeandrew> Pici: so what relevance does that have? what does that mean?
[18:36] <gottabeandrew> should i install one of those other flash players instead? whats the difference?
[18:37] <Pici> gottabeandrew: Looks like its only happening for people with a 64bit install.  There is a link to a deb package on https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/flashplugin-nonfree/+bug/184157 that might fix your issue.
[18:38] <mumbles> hi all
[18:38] <mumbles> hi all
[18:38] <Jork> hi
[18:38] <gottabeandrew> Pici: As you can probably tell, i'm not tech-savvy
[18:38] <gottabeandrew> Pici: Can you tell me exactly what i need to download and then do with the download.
[18:39] <jajabinker> hi mumbles
[18:39] <eitreach> my gedit crashes when I save as and open files with root. how do I fix it?
[18:39] <mumbles> ah fixed,.. hats cool
[18:39] <Pici> gottabeandrew: download http://launchpadlibrarian.net/11224902/nspluginwrapper_0.9.91.5-1ubuntu2_amd64.deb and then double click on it
[18:39] <gottabeandrew> Pici: Should i have flash installed before i do that?
[18:39] <TZ1> wich is the best way to run windows inside ubuntu?
[18:39] <greenfixhx6> Disk /dev/sda1 doesn't contain a valid partition table <---- ????? is that normal? thats my MAIN hdd, where linux is installed
[18:39] <Pici> gottabeandrew: Yes
[18:40] <eitreach> anyone?
[18:40] <wuxia> i have two monitors; i can use them both via nvidia-settings; xrandr -o left also works; question is ... is it possible for me to run xrandr on one of the two monitors? (but not the other?)
[18:41] <greenfixhx6> nvm its dev/sda
[18:41] <offset> Is there some way to blacklist a module when using the livecd?  Ive tried the modulename.blacklist=yes boot option but it is unrecognized.
[18:41] <gottabeandrew> Pici: Right, i have flash installed. i double clicked on that .deb file you gave me the link to and it says "Error: A later version is already installed". What do i do?
[18:42] <ikaruga3064> hi ... i'm trying to test highlighting ... can someone send me a message? (Anything w/ my nick...) thanx
[18:42] <Pici> gottabeandrew: let me see if I can find a better solution then
[18:42] <gottabeandrew> ok
[18:42] <offset> ikaruga3064: did it work?
[18:42] <ikaruga3064> offset: yes... thanx
[18:42] <koop> cant change GDM settings, how do i solve this??
[18:43] <LonelyAss> michalxo: what videocard do you have? and did you automatically configured xorg.conf in nvidia-driver installation?
[18:43] <michalxo> yes
[18:43] <michalxo> 7300 go
[18:45] <Kitu> yhellow
[18:45] <Pici> gottabeandrew: If you *need* flash, it might be easier to reinstall the 32bit version of Ubuntu instead of jumping through hoops with the 64bit version.
[18:45] <shader> anybody know how to get my computer to connect to the lan, or get dhcp?
[18:45] <Saturated> anyone able to assist with a boot cmdline option issue?
[18:45] <isle86> Pici: do I have to use cron.allow and cron.deny ?
[18:45] <gottabeandrew> what do you mean reinstall the 32bit version?
[18:45] <gottabeandrew> there was no 32bit version ever?
[18:45] <Pici> isle86: You shouldnt have to.
[18:46] <eitreach> gedit crashes as root when I save and open files. how do I fix it?
[18:46] <gottabeandrew> why the hell do they have a 64bit version if it doesn't work?
[18:46] <hal_v2> Can I get some help installing ubuntu?
[18:46] <gottabeandrew> i installed through wubi
[18:46] <Obi_Bong_Kedoobi> 64bit works fine for me
[18:46] <eitreach> hal_v2: what do you need help with?
[18:46] <Pici> gottabeandrew: It does work, but Flash is not made by Ubuntu, and the current version has some issues.
[18:47] <Obi_Bong_Kedoobi> gottabeandrew: wubi isnt like a full install, not really
[18:47] <offset> is there some way to stop the livecd from trying to enable my firewire port ( vt6307 )?  All its doing is hanging the boot process, and blacklisting the module doesn't seem to work from the livecd.
[18:47] <Obi_Bong_Kedoobi> it iz but it iznt
[18:47] <gottabeandrew> well then ubuntu should be made to work with flash
[18:47] <Pici> Obi_Bong_Kedoobi: As far as this bug is concerned, its a full install.
[18:47] <Obi_Bong_Kedoobi> Pici: i see
[18:47] <hal_v2> Well I've had it on my desktop for a while, no issues there. but i just got a laptop and when i'm trying to install it gets to running local boot scripts, says ok, then says it couldn't detect my hardware settings. I click continue and now it's doing nothing. The boot script part is still up and the blinking line is below it.
[18:47] <Obi_Bong_Kedoobi> i'll leave it to tha expertz then
[18:48] <eitreach> hal_v2: have you tried booting into safe graphics mode?
[18:48] <djhash> if I burn the ubuntu iso image to a DVD will it still work?
[18:48] <Pici> gottabeandrew: you can try removing the regular nspluginwrapper package and then installing the one I gave you the link for
[18:48] <hal_v2> i will now
[18:48] <eitreach> hal_v2: that helped me last time I installed on a laptop.
[18:48] <{Delano}> Hi, I need help with Wubi... how exactly does it work?
[18:48] <Pici> djhash: It should
[18:48] <Pici> {Delano}: It 'installs
[18:49] <isle86> Pici: the command I want to run is a shell script. Now it is well launched, but it gives me 0 byte file. If I run it by hand, it works like a charm. Any idea ?
[18:49] <Pici> {Delano}: It 'installs' linux to a hard-drive image and then modifies the boot loader to boot from this instead of an actual hardware device.
[18:49] <djhash> Pici: thanks
[18:49] <gottabeandrew> i'm out of energy now. i give ubuntu a chance a while ago and got sick of it's constant problems with the simplest of things after a day. then i had it for a few weeks 'til it broke. then i got it again and it broke so i got rid of it and now i'm giving it a 5th chance and it's broken again. it breaks in a different way every time. i don't understand why the hell it won't just work. i'm sorry but your operating system is rubbish..
[18:49] <{Delano}> Pici, okay... do you recommend it?
[18:49] <{Delano}> Pici, what are the drawbacks?
[18:50] <lakicar> kurac
[18:50] <eitreach> gottabeandrew: have a nice day.
[18:50] <Pici> gottabeandrew: I'm sorry we couldnt help you.
[18:50] <lakicar> fuck you all
[18:50] <ice_cream> lol?
[18:50] <isle86> gottabeandrew: what's your pb ?
[18:50] <batataxpto69> hello
[18:50] <axisys> how to shrink a pdf?
[18:50] <axisys> or a doc to a smaller pdf .
[18:50] <batataxpto69> please, i need your help to install a printer in ubuntu
[18:51] <axisys> i am 16KB too big
[18:51] <gottabeandrew> isle86: whats a pb?
[18:51] <batataxpto69> i have the drivers but i can't put them running
[18:51] <Pici> {Delano}: I prefer to do a full install, but then again I don't often do dual-boot installs.
[18:51] <linxeh> anyone know of a tool that can deduplicate identical messages in a mailbox?
[18:51] <batataxpto69> someone?
[18:51] <ompaul> axisys, start again with the source document and make the fonts the same or something
[18:51] <isle86> gottabeandrew: = what is your problem
[18:51] <ice_cream> linxeh, you mean to remove doubles?
[18:51] <miss> does anyone wanna chat? send me a message...i'm very bored
[18:51] <michalxo> LonelyAss, I am, where I was at beginning
[18:51] <Pici> miss: try #ubuntu-offtopic for offtopic chat
[18:51] <michalxo> 173 driver w/o GLX :(
[18:52] <linxeh> ice_cream: yes - where I've downloaded the same messages twice into a mailbox (long story)
[18:52] <axisys> ompaul: hmm ..
[18:52] <isle86> ﻿Pici: the command I want to run is a shell script. Now it is well launched, but it gives me 0 byte file. If I run it by hand, it works like a charm. Any idea ?
[18:52] <{Delano}> Pici, will a Wubi installation be seriously limited? Will I still be able to mount my Windows partition in Linux? Will it save my settings?
[18:52] <hal_v2> Worked in safe graphics, thanks. I can't believe I didn't see that. By the way, I feel like I need to share that when I went to geeksquad today (first laptop I got had a hardware problem) they told me I "can't" put linux on their laptops. I laughed at them.
[18:52] <linxeh> ice_cream: I could write something, but I'm sure other people must have had this problem
[18:52] <{Delano}> Pici, will I be able to install new software? Will it keep my settings?
[18:52] <Carpe|Diem> :)
[18:52] <gottabeandrew> isle86: my problem is that when i go on some flash websites, the flash object doesn't appear, it shows grey and then flash doesn't work again until i reinstall.
[18:52] <ice_cream> linxeh, should just be a one-liner in a language of your choice =)
[18:52] <eitreach> hal_v2: glad it worked out. Hopefully the installation will end up finding your hardware properly when it is fully installed.
[18:52] <Pici> {Delano}: Yes. the filesystem is just inside a file instead of actually on the harddrive.
[18:52] <axisys> ompaul: smaller font?
[18:52] <michalxo> LonelyAss, well.... glxinfo shows everything good, but compiz complains :-/
[18:53] <isle86> gottabeandrew: are you using firefox ?
[18:53] <eitreach> hal_v2: what laptop is it, by the way? which graphics adapter?
[18:53] <Pici> {Delano}: I dont know what the performance is like though, I don't personally use it.
[18:53] <axisys> ompaul: i am using times new roman
[18:53] <gottabeandrew> so now there's 2 solutions i can think of. 1. can i get a past version of flash? 2. there's also the option to have swfdec player or gnash swf player? could i use one of those instead of the flash thing?
[18:53] <gottabeandrew> isle86: yes.
[18:53] <linxeh> ice_cream: hmm, I'm not sure it will be a one liner - there will be the issue of removing messages from mbox files etc
[18:53] <axisys> ompaul: font size 9
[18:53] <ice_cream> depends how messages are stored i guess
[18:53] <ompaul> axisys, no change all fonts to the same, to be honest you really should prune text - and keep all fonts the same and prune content and blank pages
[18:53] <Pici> isle86: hmm.  I'm thinking.
[18:53] <linxeh> ice_cream: i've got around 10GB of email, dating back to 1997
[18:53] <axisys> ompaul: it is my resume
[18:53] <snmpee> gottabeandrew you should try gnash it's actually working now
[18:53] <{Delano}> Pici, do you mean "yes" to it being limited, or "yes" to me being able to install, mount drives and save settings?
[18:54] <axisys> ompaul: hence different types fonts
[18:54] <ice_cream> linxeh, google for mbox parsers or similar
[18:54] <linxeh> ice_cream: I'm lazy ;-)
[18:54] <michalxo> LonelyAss, somehow.. somewhere... compiz works with 173 driver :D
[18:54] <Pici> {Delano}: Yes meaning you're be able to install stuff, mount drives, save settings, see the world, save the universe, etc.
[18:54] <ice_cream> i see a module in perl after one quick search =P
[18:54] <isle86> gottabeandrew: is there a way to send you a screen capture ?
[18:54] <honeybee> hello :)
[18:54] <{Delano}> Heh thanks Pici
[18:54] <snmpee> isle86 use putfile
[18:54] <axisys> ompaul: the doc is 131584 bytes and exported pdf is 119119 bytes.. it needs to be 102400 bytes
[18:55] <LonelyAss> michalxo: so, now everything is fine?
[18:55] <honeybee> ice_cream you are lazy?? wow ... that is terrible !!
[18:55] <eth01> topic
[18:55] <michalxo> LonelyAss, yes :) btw, this driver is only manually updateable right?
[18:55] <ompaul> axisys, you should prune text and this is not a writing class it is a ubuntu support channel pm if you want more details on this offtopic item
[18:56] <|Maku|> ok. still wifi card aint working. lspci shows ralink rt2500 802.llg cardbus/mini.PCI (rev 01)
[18:56] <Pici> isle86: Is the script interactive in any way? or does it run a graphical program that might be waiting for input?
[18:56] <indy> hi.I'm a new Linux Mint user.Is this the right place?
[18:56] <gottabeandrew> isle86: do you mean can you send me a screenshot or can i send you a screenshot?
[18:56] <|Maku|> anybody knows what to do?
[18:56] <Pici> !mintsupport | indy no it isnt
[18:56] <isle86> snmpee: putfile ? which url
[18:56] <gottabeandrew> isle86: do you want me to send you a screenshot?
[18:57] <{Delano}> Pici, is it possible to have multiple Wubi installations on one drive?
[18:57] <rich_> can someone tell me how to spindown a usb sata hard disk drive? sdparm -S /dev/sdc seems to work, but it doesnt spin down
[18:57] <isle86> Pici: it's a simple shell script, to tar many files, then zip everything and put the result somewhere. so no gui
[18:57] <indy> ok.thank you
[18:57] <{Delano}> Pici, will the bootloader see them and modify accordingly?
[18:57] <isle86> gottabeandrew: yes, I want to send you a picture
[18:57] <gottabeandrew> ok, www.imageshack.us - upload there without an account then send me the pic
[18:57] <Pici> {Delano}: Sorry, thats beyond my knowledge of Wubi.  I don't see why there wouldnt be a way to do that, but I dont know if the installer knows how to make those sort of changes.
[18:58] <{Delano}> Okay
[18:58] <eitreach> gedit crashes as root when I try to open and save files. Segfault. What do I do to fix it?
[18:58] <IdleOne> IIRC the wubi installer ask what poartiton to use or to create a new one
[18:58] <{Delano}> One last question, Pici... is there any way for me to explore the image under Windows?
[18:58] <Pici> {Delano}: And the paths contained in the script are all absolute, and not relative?
[18:58] <ice_cream> linxeh, client or language of choice... e.g. thunderbird  example  http://www.ghacks.net/2007/05/18/automatically-remove-duplicate-mails-in-thunderbird/
[18:58] <Pici> {Delano}: I don't think so.
[18:59] <{Delano}> Okay, thanks for your time Pici :o)
[18:59] <Cyrus25801> when I try to open http://127.0.0.1/testphp.php it wants to "download" (in mozilla) can someone pls help
[18:59] <ice_cream> google is your friend =)
[18:59] <LonelyAss> michalxo: don't know... i've manually installed new version (177 beta)
[19:00] <rdz> hi all. i cannot mount my samba share anymore, although it worked perfectly in gutsy. what has changed in hardy?
[19:00] <linxeh> ice_cream: that only applies to freshly downloaded mails though - I've got folders with up to 7 copies of some mails :)
[19:00] <linxeh> I'll script something up
[19:00] <ice_cream> heh, ok
[19:00] <michalxo> aha, thx for all LonelyAss ;)  i've used http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=5123595&postcount=9 + your knowledge ;) THX
[19:01] <djhash> Cyrus25801: after you installed apache.. did you modify apache configuration?
[19:01] <isle85> gottabeandrew: this is it :
[19:01] <isle85> gottabeandrew: http://img397.imageshack.us/my.php?image=26914615nz4.jpg
[19:02] <{Delano}> Pici, sorry, one more thing... does Wubi modify the Windows bootloader or does it install grub or lilo?
[19:02] <isle85> gottabeandrew: check the plugins installed
[19:02] <Pici> {Delano}: I don't actually remember.
[19:02] <Pici> {Delano}: Sorry
[19:02] <hal_v2> one more thing, how do i load my windows partition after setting up the dual boot?
[19:02] <Cyrus25801> djhash: I don't think so. it work yesterday and now it doesn't. I didn't change anything between yesterday and today
[19:02] <{Delano}> Thanks
[19:02] <gottabeandrew> isle86: right, so what am i supposed to be looking for in this picture?
[19:03] <isle85> check the plugins installed. You have to compare what you see to yours
[19:03] <LonelyAss> michalxo: it was my first thx, cause i'm using Linux only for 4-th day))) good luck
[19:04] <michalxo> LonelyAss, I for 2 years :D
[19:04] <snmpee> i'm about to try out Splunk for the first time to replace an ancient windows NT 4.0 machine the last network admin set up as a syslogger

[19:11] <Harley^> The Ubunto 8.40 CD boots very well and allows me to try before installing Ubuntu. Unfortunately, Ubuntu picks up the VIA8237 SOUND chips that do not work on my motherboard instead of my SB PCI 512 Live that I am able to use with Debian Etch. If there is a graphical mixer, I did not see it in the menus. Would someone please tell me how to get my SB PCI 512 SOUND CARD working ?
[19:11] <Dex-Freudii> mahesh: cd directory_name
[19:11] <Dex-Freudii> mahesh: ./configure
[19:11] <Dex-Freudii> mahesh: ./make
[19:11] <djhash> Cyrus25801: now try the URL again
[19:12] <mahesh> dex-freudii:: the file is located in my desktop
[19:12] <Dex-Freudii> mahesh: sudo make install
[19:12] <Dex-Freudii> mahesh: do you know how to use the terminal?
[19:12] <matthew__> ikonia: hmm, ps -p $pid doesn't return anything besides the "title" and ps -ef | grep $pid only returns:  root     30656 30645  0 12:10 pts/1    00:00:00 grep 30590
[19:12] <Eric7> >.< im ge tting this error

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables GTK_CFLAGS and GTK_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details.
[19:12] <ikonia> matthew__: your looking for info on specific process ?
[19:12] <jussi01> Harley^: asoundconf list      then         asoundconf set-default-card <cardname-here>
[19:12] <shing`> What are some good cluster management options for ubuntu?
[19:12] <Eric7> but libsoup 2.2 all i can find
[19:13] <matthew__> ikonia: apparently this process is "hidden", and I'm wondering what it is
[19:13] <Cyrus25801> djhash: did it.still same prob
[19:13] <ikonia> matthew__: could you give me a little more detail, what's saying what is hidden
[19:13] <ikonia> shing`: what sort of cluster ?
[19:13] <Harley^> jussii01 would you give an example of the cardname please ?
[19:13] <Eric7> anyone know where i can get 2.4
[19:13] <jussi01> Harley^: asoundconf list will tell you
[19:13] <matthew__> ikonia: "unhide" is what found them
[19:14] <Pici> Eric7: libsoup-2.4-dev is in the Hardy repositories
[19:14] <mahesh> dex-freudii:: ya i know to get in terminal and come out and some other basic commands
[19:14] <Eric7> ...
[19:14] <ikonia> matthew__: but what are you doing to need to see them, could you explain the situation
[19:14] <Eric7> i cant get that in gusty then huh?
[19:14] <mahesh> dex-freudii:: now i'll try it out and come back to you my friend
[19:14] <Harley^> I see. OK. So asoundconf is typed by the user on a terminal ? I also note there is no root ?
[19:14] <Pici> Eric7: I didnt look, hold on
[19:14] <djhash> Cyrus25801: ok.. can you pastebin your /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
[19:14] <jussi01> Harley^: correct on both counts.
[19:14] <shing`> ikonia: just for personal use, want to experiment with parallel processing
[19:14] <Harley^> ok. thank you.
[19:15] <Dex-Freudii> mahesh: it can take a while
[19:15] <Dex-Freudii> mahesh: what package is it?
[19:15] <ikonia> shing`: what cluster are you wanting to use ?
[19:15] <matthew__> ikonia: unhide is designed to find possible rootkits and the like, things that mask their PID from being seen, and when I get 2 positive results, it sorta worries me
[19:15] <hittingpilot> hello, my window manager is missing
[19:15] <ikonia> matthew__: ok, so it's a root kit search thats alerting you
[19:15] <ikonia> matthew__: did it give you the process id's
[19:15] <Pici> Eric7: No, doesn't look like there is a package available for that version in Gutsy
[19:15] <Eric7> i see
[19:15] <Eric7> tyvm
[19:16] <mahesh> dex-freudii:: it is a flash player
[19:16] <Eric7> so nothing i can do about it?
[19:16] <mahesh> dex-freudii:: i want to install it to view youtube videos
[19:16] <Dex-Freudii> ok
[19:16] <matthew__> ikonia: yes, but its not exactly a "rootkit search", it just finds hidden processes
[19:16] <Dex-Freudii> mahesh: in firefox?
[19:16] <jussi01> !flash
[19:16] <ikonia> matthew__: yes, what info does it give you, process ID's ?
[19:16] <mahesh> dex-freudii:: yup!!
[19:16] <gottabeandrew> can i get past versions of flash?
[19:16] <shing`> ikonia: i've look at a few, such as heartbeat, slurm, and kerrighed but none of them have any ubuntu specific install instructions
[19:16] <Dex-Freudii> mahesh: then there is an easier way
[19:16] <shing`> ikonia: and look quite daunting tbh
[19:16] <mahesh> dex-freudii:: i did the plugins but it still didnt help
[19:16] <ikonia> shing`: eah, thats about right
[19:17] <gottabeandrew> can i get past versions of flash?
[19:17] <matthew__> ikonia: just PIDs, with the message: Found HIDDEN PID: [blah]
[19:17] <shing`> ikonia: so just wondering if some people in here had some experience and recommendations =)
[19:17] <mahesh> dex-freudii:: is there any other way
[19:17] <jussi01> Harley^: how did you get on?
[19:17] <ikonia> matthew__: so id you do "ps -p 55" (if the pid is 55) what do get
[19:17] <hittingpilot> ummm hello, my window manager is missing!
[19:17] <Cyrus25801> djhash: http://pastebin.org/49406
[19:18] <Harley^> jussi01 - How did I get on IRC ? With Debian Etch .
[19:18] <Harley^> jussi01 - How did I get on with the asoundconf ? I have not tried it yet
[19:18] <matthew__> ikonia: nothing, except for the "title" thing at the top, saying what the columns are.
[19:19] <jussi01> Harley^: I meant the second one ;)
[19:19] <gottabeandrew> can i get past versions of flash?
[19:19] <Harley^> :)

[19:23] <lenswipe> its not urwebsite?

[19:23] <ubuntugeek> this is popular nick, may be you mess me with somebody else
[19:23] <lenswipe> ubuntugeek: i think so, nvm
[19:23] <matthew__> ikonia: The unhide docs for the mode I used say this: The proc  technique  consists  of  comparing /proc with the output of /bin/ps
[19:23] <ikonia> matthew__: I'm just reading up on unhide
[19:24] <djhash> Cyrus25801: if you download the file and look inside it.. do you see php code?
[19:24] <gottabeandrew> CAN I INSTALL A PAST VERSION OF FLASH?
[19:24] <gottabeandrew> i've asked about 10 times with no reply
[19:24] <Eric7> how do you disable a plugin in firefox?
[19:25] <matthew__> ikonia: I used "proc" mode, sys mode finds nothing, and i'm running the brute-force test now
[19:25] <snmpee> Eric7: Tools -> Add-Ons
[19:25] <gottabeandrew> oh wait, somebody did reply :$
[19:25] <gottabeandrew> i'm sorry
[19:25] <snmpee> Eric7 it's self-explanatory from there.
[19:26] <Eric7> not plugins
[19:26] <gottabeandrew> whats the current version of flash?
[19:26] <gottabeandrew> 10 or 9?
[19:26] <Eric7> i mean stuff like flash ect
[19:26] <michalxo> gottabeandrew, 10
[19:26] <gottabeandrew> ok, thanks
[19:26] <matthew__> ikonia: I ran the test again, and now it finds nothing. I'm confused now. >.<
[19:26] <Pici> gottabeandrew: 9, 10 is beta. iirc
[19:26] <ikonia> matthew__: I think your getting false positives
[19:26] <michalxo> gottabeandrew, go to adobe download flash and install it... (easy 2 steps how to install)
[19:27] <Cyrus25801> djhash: yes
[19:27] <matthew__> ikonia: That would be my guess too, given that it can't find anything anymore
[19:28] <petteri_> hey!
[19:28] <matthew__> ikonia: oh wait, it found something else now... and now it doesn't... and now it does... I'm going to go with your guess of false positives
[19:28] <jajabinker> petteri_ hi

[19:45] <spikemcc> my sata drive work pretty well on hardy
[19:45] <ikonia> ubuntugeek: are you getting any errors, timeouts ? what ?
[19:45] <djhash> Cyrus25801: once you do that.. also re-install php5.. just to make sure re-installing apache2 didn't end up in messing up php5.
[19:45] <ubuntugeek> No, files jsut not uploading.
[19:45] <maszlo> sadly I do not have access to the computer so I can not access logs.. the boot halted at a commandline and I had to comment out the line from fstab
[19:46] <ikonia> ubuntugeek: how do you know they are not uploading, does the upload complete ok, but then just not appear ?

[19:48] <ubuntugeek> I also have some local web pages, and uploading files on them works good. But in the Internet it doesn't works. ( if its important, i connect via VPN)
[19:48] <Fryguy--> nafiux: try #mono
[19:48] <Danskmand> Isiah: "Aloha :-) - I need to upgrade my old, dusty SuSE 9.0 firewall to something newer, allthough it runs fine...I plan to upgrade to a present Ubuntu Linux...Its a Pentium2, 350 Mhz, 384 mb Ram.....Will it run the Ubuntu ? - I only use the Kernel, no Gui whatsoever..."
[19:49] <ikonia> ubuntugeek: connect to what via VPN ?
[19:49] <cemc> ikonia: there was no main.cf, i created one from scratch, and i didn't put any chroot stuff in it
[19:49] <Fryguy--> ubuntugeek: i would imagine it's a vpn problem
[19:49] <mr_daniel> with which command I can look up, which programs are using the sound card?
[19:49] <illogic-al> how dee!
[19:49] <Fryguy--> Danskmand: should be fine
[19:49] <illogic-al> I've a question for you all.
[19:49] <Fryguy--> mr_daniel: lsof
[19:49] <Fryguy--> !ask | illogic-al
[19:49] <ubuntugeek> ok, try to do somethink with my vpn script
[19:49] <santor> Danskmand: i don't think ubuntu is the best option for a firewall, but without a gui it would run on that computer just fine
[19:50] <illogic-al> i need to install on a computer without a ide drive, that has a sata drive.
[19:50] <ikonia> ubuntugeek: what are you vpn'ing into ?
[19:50] <ikonia> ubuntugeek: a work network ?
[19:50] <Fryguy--> illogic-al: ok, what is the problem
[19:50] <ubuntugeek> internet
[19:50] <illogic-al> does ubuntu allow this. i tried and it didn't pick up my pci sata card.
[19:50] <ikonia> illogic-al: ide/sata doesn't make a difference
[19:50] <trashguy> ...
[19:50] <ubuntugeek> vpning to internet
[19:50] <Danskmand> Santor: What would you use for a firewall ?
[19:50] <Coggz> !sioix
[19:50] <ikonia> ubuntugeek: you don't vpn onto the internet
[19:50] <ikonia> ubuntugeek: you vpn to a host
[19:50] <trashguy> ubuntugeek, well your vpn has to connect to the internet somehow
[19:50] <Coggz> !sipix
[19:50] <ikonia> ubuntugeek: what are you vpning to
[19:50] <Fryguy--> illogic-al: you'll have to locate drivers for your card then if it isn't detected by default
[19:50] <santor> Danskmand: well, there are distros designed for using as firewalls, i'd start googling for one
[19:50] <illogic-al> or perhaps it did, a /dev/sda was listed, but i could not format using fdisk or cfdisk
[19:50] <mr_daniel> Fryguy--: can you be specific; for which open-files I have to loop up? lsof outputs many lines of info
[19:51] <illogic-al> Fryguy--: the drivers are included and ;oaded eith ubuntu
[19:51] <ubuntugeek> provider server? :D
[19:51] <Fryguy--> mr_daniel: no i can't, i don't have a linux version of lsof available to walk you through the syntax, check the manpage
[19:51] <newcomer> help: can't login, "authorization fail" after input username, not password yet
[19:51] <mr_daniel> ok
[19:51] <Fryguy--> illogic-al: if so, then your drive is detected and you can just go ahead and install to it
[19:51] <illogic-al> ikonia: oh. it does make a difference. a huge difference.
[19:51] <bobertdos> ﻿illogic-al: What are you trying to install? A fresh version of Hardy?
[19:51] <ubuntugeek> i don't now how it's named. it s looks like vpn.myprovider.com
[19:51] <ikonia> ubuntugeek: thats a very unusual way for a provider to give you internet access, as to be able to access your provider, you must already be on the internet
[19:51] <ikonia> illogic-al: pardon ?
[19:51] <spikemcc> I still have 4 issues to resolve with hardy my microphone , my keyboard layout for old canadian french keyboard ,
[19:51] <spikemcc> my hauppage wintvpvr usb 2 setup and my game controllers block each other ...
[19:51] <illogic-al> Fryguy--: no, the drive is not selected.
[19:52] <isiah> gcc can't find my include files. I followed the online guides but they have not worked.
[19:52] <eth01> iknoia: how it's been provided?
[19:52] <Fryguy--> illogic-al: then you don't have a driver loaded for the card
[19:52] <eth01> ikonia, even
[19:52] <trashguy> ubuntugeek, how do you connect?
[19:52] <illogic-al> Fryguy--: the device is created, but root has no access to it.
[19:52] <ubuntugeek> wel, in russia it a common way of get acces to the internet
[19:52] <Fryguy--> illogic-al: explain
[19:52] <newcomer> how to get help from here
[19:52] <ikonia> eth01: if he's vpning onto a server on the internet - I'd expect him to already be connected
[19:52] <spikemcc> I still have 4 issues to resolve with hardy my microphone , my keyboard layout for old canadian french keyboard ,

[19:52] <spikemcc> my hauppage wintvpvr usb 2 setup and my game controllers block each other ...
[19:52] <eth01> ikonia: i c
[19:52] <Danskmand> Santor: The real reason I want to do this is because I am trying to build a VPN - but I use masquerading for my firewall and the 2.4 kernel cant be used for that....
[19:52] <ikonia> eth01: just my assumption
[19:52] <illogic-al> Fryguy--: ok, let's say this pci card needs driver x. ubuntu has and loads driver x.
[19:52] <hawodi> am having this error when ever I try to install a software:E: /var/cache/apt/archives/postgresql-8.3_8.3.3-0ubuntu0.8.04_i386.deb: subprocess new pre-removal script returned error exit status 9
[19:53] <hawodi> what does that mean?
[19:53] <gottabeandrew> can somebody please tell me how to install flash player 9
[19:53] <ubuntugeek> yeah, i use PPPoE also ( it was need to star vpn script)
[19:53] <eth01> ikonia: hmm
[19:53] <newcomer> help me: can't login, "authorization fail" after input username, not password yet
[19:53] <eth01> so how's the connection to the vpn being provided then?
[19:53] <Fryguy--> gottabeandrew: flashplugin-nonefree is the name of the package
[19:53] <illogic-al> Fryguy--: the /dev/sdX block is created. as the drive is new it need to be formatted to create partitions.
[19:53] <offset> Is there some way of disabling the firewire port while booting the livecd?  Blacklisting modules, and BOOT_DEBUG=3 don't seem to work.
[19:53] <gottabeandrew> yes, thats flashplayer 10. i want 9 cause 10 doesn't work.
[19:53] <ikonia> eth01: exactly, thats was my point
[19:53] <hawodi> how do I resolve this pls? E: /var/cache/apt/archives/postgresql-8.3_8.3.3-0ubuntu0.8.04_i386.deb: subprocess new pre-removal script returned error exit status 9
[19:53] <trashguy> ubuntugeek, okay, browsing the web and everythign works fine though?
[19:53] <Fryguy--> gottabeandrew: no it's not, it' s9
[19:53] <snmpee> what's the package name that lets you pick between 3 different flash choices for firefox?
[19:53] <eth01> ikonia: could be internal, no WAN connection
[19:53] <ubuntugeek> yeah, just browsing works fine
[19:54] <isiah> newcomer: try logging into by terminal
[19:54] <ikonia> eth01: very true, but I can't get that information
[19:54] <eth01> and then the internal connection to the VPN then hits the WAN?
[19:54] <eth01> :-)
[19:54] <bobertdos> ﻿gottabeandrew: The easiest way to do that is to enable the Multiverse and other extra repositories. Once they're enabled, you can search for flashplugin-non free
[19:54] <illogic-al> Fryguy--: doing 'sudo fdisk /dev/sdX' or 'sudo cfdisk /dev/sdX' does nothing. an error is thrown up saying the drive cannot be accessed.
[19:54] <eth01> probably the case.
[19:54] <Cyrus25801> djhash: http://pastebin.org/49421 ; and this: <?php phpinfo(); ?>
[19:54] <trashguy> ubuntugeek, has it worked previously?
[19:54] <Fryguy--> illogic-al: are you sure the drive is good?
[19:54] <illogic-al> so if you're telling me all i need is the driver, then your telling me ubuntu has the incorrect driver.
[19:54] <gottabeandrew> yes, flash plugin non free is flash player 10, not 9. i need 9. i downloaded their flashplayer 9 thing but don't know what to do with it now.
[19:54] <ikonia> eth01: I'm not %100 certain on that, it seems a very odd way for an ISP to give access
[19:54] <ubuntugeek> nope, same bag since ubuntu 7.10. i just closed my eyes on that, but now i need to upload somethink to my friend
[19:55] <santor> Danskmand: check out smoothwall.org its going to be much better than ubuntu as a firewall because that is what is meant for, ubuntu is for a desktop computer and servers
[19:55] <illogic-al> Fryguy--: no, i'm not sure at all. i just know that the driver listed should support the card.
[19:55] <ikonia> illogic-al: most ide/sata chipsets are supported and if not the generic drivers normally work
[19:55] <eth01> ikonia: well it can't be much of an "ISP" if that's how they provide connectivity
[19:55] <eitreach> gedit crashes as root when I try to open and save files. Segfault. What do I do to fix it?
[19:55] <Fryguy--> illogic-al: the drive might be bad
[19:55] <ikonia>  eth01 yes, it doesn't add up
[19:55] <illogic-al> ikonia: most, of course != all :-)
[19:55] <eth01> heh, odd
[19:55] <bobertdos> ﻿gottabeandrew: You must extract the archive and run the installer in the terminal.
[19:55] <trashguy> ubuntugeek, have you ever had it work on a diff machine/
[19:55] <ikonia> illogic-al: what chipset are you using for your sata controller
[19:55] <illogic-al> Fryguy--: hum. had not thought of that.
[19:55] <illogic-al> that would suck.
[19:55] <trashguy> ubuntugeek, threw the vpn
[19:56] <ubuntugeek> hmm, a use the same machine for several years so i can't say
[19:56] <illogic-al> ikonia: sata_sil i beilieve.,
[19:56] <LieZ^> lol ive installed gnome how do i start it :D
[19:56] <eth01> ubuntugeek: http://192.168.100.1 ?
[19:56] <ikonia> illogic-al: thats a driver, not a chipset
[19:56] <Fryguy--> LieZ^: pick it as your session from whatever login manager you are using
[19:56] <Fryguy--> LieZ^: if you are using startx, put gnome-session in your .xinitrc
[19:56] <eth01> wonder if that picks something up
[19:56] <ikonia> eth01: good call
[19:57] <matthew__> how could I make a crontab thing that would run once a day, but if I missed the time (ie: I was logged out) it would run it as soon as it could after that? Would a default cron.daily handle that? or would I have to make a new crontab?
[19:57] <trashguy> ubuntugeek, it may be that there is some ACL on your providers side of the VPN i had a similar issue whioch effected all my machines regardless of the platform
[19:57] <gottabeandrew> ok, i downloaded flash player 9. the 2 files i have are flashplayer-installer which, when i double click it gives me the option to run in terminal display, cancel or run. i also have a file called libflashplayer.so. it doesn't know what to do with the .so file and when i try and run the flashplayer-installer in terminal, it doesn't do anything. these files are both in andrew/downloads/flash/install_flash_player_9_linux so what do 
[19:57] <ikonia> matthew__: thats not how cron works

[19:58] <djhash> Cyrus25801: have you tried accessing the php link from another computer?
[19:59] <bobertdos> ﻿gottabeandrew: When you're running it in the terminal, how are you typing the command?
[19:59] <Fryguy--> goldbond: that's the primary partition that marks the beginning of logical partitions, it's not mountable
[19:59] <trashguy> ubuntugeek, are you using firefox3?
[19:59] <Eric7> how would i disable ./configure not to use kde

[20:01] <goldbond> thanks
[20:01] <ikonia> matthew__: how would you set a backup job to be based on runlevles ?

[20:02] <ubuntugeek> don't, we have dns, buty i don't what iternal means :D
[20:02] <ikonia> matthew__: oh, so you mean take a backup at boot time, thats not the best idea
[20:02] <ikonia> matthew__: why not just have a script that you run when you want
[20:02] <gottabeandrew> ok, i downloaded flash player 9. the 2 files i have are flashplayer-installer which, when i double click it gives me the option to run in terminal display, cancel or run. i also have a file called libflashplayer.so. it doesn't know what to do with the .so file and when i try and run the flashplayer-installer in terminal, it doesn't do anything. these files are both in andrew/downloads/flash/install_flash_player_9_linux so what do 
[20:02] <gottabeandrew> i need to know what to type into the terminal window.
[20:02] <matthew__> ikonia: because I'll forget :(
[20:02] <Obi_Bong_Kedoobi> iz there a music-applet for amarok?
[20:02] <eth01> ubuntugeek: local ip addresses, such as 10.50.1.1, 172.50.1.1 etc
[20:02] <eth01> non-routable.
[20:02] <trashguy> gottabeandrew, put the .so file in mozillas plugin dir
[20:03] <LieZ^> i tried the command 'startx' and got a fatal server error, could not connect to X server no such process errno 3, any ideas?
[20:03] <ikonia> matthew__: I'd not advise it as a boot option
[20:03] <gottabeandrew> and what do i do with the other file
[20:03] <ikonia> matthew__: just try to select a time when your PC is normally on
[20:03] <trashguy> disregard
[20:03] <Fryguy--> LieZ^: look at /var/log/Xorg.log
[20:03] <LieZ^> k
[20:03] <bobertdos> ﻿gottabeandrew: May I PM you?
[20:03] <gottabeandrew> yes
[20:03] <ubuntugeek> it has local ip, so i think that he is indeed iternal
[20:03] <gottabeandrew> infact, could somebody remote control my system and get it working for me?
[20:03] <eth01> whats the IP just to make sure?
[20:03] <gottabeandrew> because it would be a lot faster than me coming back and forwards between you with the latest questions and updates
 ubuntugeek: local ip addresses, such as 10.50.1.1, 172.50.1.1 etc  <-- 172.50.1.1 is NOT an RFC 1918 ip address eth01
[20:03] <trashguy> gottabeandrew, it is a simple task
[20:04] <Billll> alright, I typed "netstat -r" into terminal to see local connectino and I see nothing, but in network wirless conenction I was able to see my modeom and latency of conenction.... IS this a driver issue with the wireless card?
[20:04] <eth01> snmpee: it is in my network, sorry!
[20:04] <gottabeandrew> trashguy: how do i do it then
[20:04] <snmpee> eth01 172.16.0.0-172.31.255.255
[20:04] <eth01> and er my network spans across the whole UK :-)
[20:04] <Fryguy--> gottabeandrew: i can help you if you want
[20:04] <LieZ^> @fryguy theres nothing in the log?
[20:04] <trashguy> gottabeandrew, download the tar.gz format
[20:04] <Cyrus25801> djhash: it askes to download off the other pc aswell
[20:04] <matthew__> ikonia: the problem is that that sorta varies, what with school, summer, yadda yadda yadda. What would making it as a boot option do though? If I set it to run in the background, it shouldn't massively increase my boot time, and if I have it overwrite the old backup, it should fill my drive, even if I restart a few to many times.
[20:04] <eth01> goody for you, not here to debate that.
[20:05] <snmpee> then your network is not RFC 1918 compliant which is squirrley
[20:05] <gottabeandrew> yes
[20:05] <eth01> snmpee: enough to get ISP of the year for 2006.
[20:05] <ikonia> matthew__: then I suggest a postit note on your monitor saying "take a backup"
[20:05] <jack> How can I view all channel
[20:05] <Fryguy--> jack: /list
[20:05] <snmpee> eth01 ISP of the year, what the heck is that lol
[20:05] <jack> thx
[20:06] <eth01> you'd know if you were a valued customer.
[20:06] <matthew__> ikonia: that looks ugly. ( I know i'm being picky), what be the negative aspects of setting it as a boot option?
[20:06] <snmpee> eth01 who made up that award, the international house of pancakes?
[20:06] <Billll> alright, I typed "netstat -r" into terminal to see local connectino and I see nothing, but in network wirless conenction I was able to see my modeom and latency of conenction.... IS this a driver issue with the wireless card?
[20:06] <eth01> er, ISPA, PC Advisor?
[20:06] <ikonia> matthew__: well, it would have to complete a backup before it would boot, so you'd have a massive lag
[20:06] <illogic-al> oh. and this mother board doesn't have support for sata drives either,
[20:06] <ikonia> matthew__: plug you'd have to position it correct so everything was mounted and running for the backup to happen
[20:06] <eth01> The Sunday Times, hm..Broadband Choices Award ...
[20:06] <djzn> hi, how do I configure in Nautilus, to have a fixed icon for any MP3 file, or any filetype???
[20:07] <matthew__> ikonia: I could make it run in the background after all the other level 2 scripts
[20:07] <snmpee> eth01: are they also the official ISP of the 2008 summer olympics polevaulting team?
[20:07] <eth01> afraid not.
[20:07] <ikonia> matthew__: that depends on the init scripts being sucessful, again your welcome to do it, but not how I'd manage it
[20:07] <snmpee> eth01 then what use is it
[20:07] <The_ManU_212> hi i get often segmentation faults with blender and thudnerbird
[20:07] <The_ManU_212> what to do
[20:08] <ikonia> The_ManU_212: segfaults normally pretty fatal
[20:08] <The_ManU_212> the program crashes and after a reboot it is often possible to work normaly
[20:08] <eth01> snmpee: nothing..
[20:08] <Fryguy--> The_ManU_212: probably stop overclocking your machine
[20:08] <djhash> Cyrus25801: I'm sorry.. whatever the problem is.. seems to be beyond than just configuration problem.. something happened from the last time it worked to this time that messed up everything.. Ask around here more and see if someone can help you more.. again.. sorry..
[20:08] <ikonia> The_ManU_212: without fobbing you off, the most common cause is overclocking or bad ram,
[20:08] <The_ManU_212> Fryguy--: nothing overclocked
[20:08] <jsmjsm> need help with RF switch.. running Ubuntu Linux on a Sony Vaio.. the physical switch on the wireless card is inoperable
[20:08] <ikonia> The_ManU_212: unless you have manually updated packages
[20:08] <matthew__> ikonia: yeah, I was guessing that would be your answer. "You _can_ do it, but i'm not going to help you if you fail badly"
[20:08] <LieZ^> theres nothing in my /var/log/xorg.log any ideas?
[20:08] <The_ManU_212> ikonia: only wine rep others default
[20:08] <eth01> ikonia: could be a dodgey cpu too
[20:08] <ikonia> matthew__: I didn't say that, no no no, I'll certainly help if you have issues
[20:09] <ikonia> eth01: yes, very true
[20:09] <Fryguy--> LieZ^: it's /var/log/Xorg.log
[20:09] <ikonia> The_ManU_212: again - not a fob off, but the most common cause is hardware
[20:09] <snmpee> eth01 if they use 172.50.x.x those are routable IP's. i should hope they aren't using those externally, and using them internally is kind of silly too because there's bound to be an accidental crossover by human error eventually
[20:09] <Billll> alright, I typed "netstat -r" into terminal to see local connectino and I see nothing, but in network wirless conenction I was able to see my modeom and latency of conenction.... IS this a driver issue with the wireless card or a router issue?
[20:09] <eth01> hardware is bad sometimes. try and RMA it. (if that is the case)
[20:09] <The_ManU_212> ikonia: ok so it is possible that it is the ram, what should i do, the mem test in grub menu?
[20:09] <The_ManU_212> how to find out currupt hardware
[20:09] <ikonia> The_ManU_212: memtest for a good few hours is always a good shout
[20:09] <eth01> snmpee: please don't tell me how to run a network.
[20:09] <matthew__> ikonia: yeah, I was sorta exagerating
[20:09] <Cyrus25801> djhash: thanx for the help
[20:10] <LieZ^> fryguy: still nothing :(
[20:10] <eitreach> gedit crashes as root when I try to open and save files. Segfault. What do I do to fix it?
[20:10] <Fryguy--> LieZ^: then you are missing a part of your X11 install.  I don't know what it could be.
[20:10] <The_ManU_212> ikonia: how many hours
[20:10] <djzn> is there any way to configure file types in NAUTILUS? I want to have a certain icon for mp3 files
[20:10] <snmpee> well actually they could use them externally all they like, it's just you said those were internal IP's. are they somehow NAT'd that way?
[20:10] <trashguy> physical errors ore any SAs bane
[20:10] <eth01> snmpee: it's a meaningless pointless useless IP assigned to those like myself when remote
[20:10] <ikonia> The_ManU_212: you'll see a menu that says "passes" let it do at least 3 complete passes
[20:10] <eth01> just makes a few things easier, thats all ;)
 ubuntugeek: local ip addresses, such as 10.50.1.1, 172.50.1.1 etc
 non-routable.
[20:10] <matthew__> ikonia: hmm, for some reason I can't right click anymore, and I haven't even done anything. >.< I think my system is warning me not to make the backup start at boot.
[20:10] <snmpee> eth01 172.50.1.1 is indeed routable
[20:10] <eth01> snmpee: please move on.
[20:11] <eth01> #defocus if you want to continue it
[20:11] <The_ManU_212> ikonia: ok and when i get errors? which ram it is i have 2 512mb
[20:11] <eth01> or #ubuntu-offtopic
[20:11] <ikonia> The_ManU_212: you should see it on the screen
[20:11] <snmpee> lol you're one of those who doesn't like to be corrected
[20:11]  * trashguy routes his class a 
[20:11] <The_ManU_212> ikonia: ok thx and if the ram is ok?
[20:11] <ikonia> The_ManU_212: then we can work it through in more detail, lets remove the obvious/easy first
[20:11] <The_ManU_212> ikonia: i make always fsck after 30 mlounts and all seems to be fine
[20:11] <eth01> ikonia: *rolls eyes* :P
[20:11] <The_ManU_212> ikonia: ok
[20:11] <ikonia> The_ManU_212: fsck is nothing
[20:12] <Fryguy--> 10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255 172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255
[20:12] <The_ManU_212> ikonia: i'll be back and report you
[20:12] <ikonia> The_ManU_212: if I'm not around there are plenty in the channel to help
[20:12] <The_ManU_212> ikonia: why is fsck nothiung?
[20:12] <The_ManU_212> ikonia: ok
[20:12] <eth01> 172.*** is used internally imo
[20:12] <ikonia> The_ManU_212: it's a disk check - nothing more
[20:12] <The_ManU_212> cu
[20:13] <eth01> we don't care if it's RFC compliant, so long as it works.
[20:13] <Fryguy--> eth01: not according to the specification for the IP protocol
[20:13] <Pici> !ot
[20:13] <LieZ^> can i pm someone?
[20:13] <trashguy> i run a 10.x /23 and /24 depneding for vlan needs
[20:13] <EhPrettyEasy> DCC SEND ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZLOLOWNEDPLZTHX
[20:13] <ikonia> LieZ^: just ask your question in the channelk
[20:13] <Pici> !traffic
[20:14] <Tem|laptop> lol @ exploiting DCC send bugs in lousy clients to blow them up
[20:14] <Danskmand> Santor: Thanks for this !! - I am busy reading and downloading ;-)
[20:14] <ikonia> Tem|laptop: why even mention it - please read what ubottu just said
[20:14] <LieZ^> i have gdm and gnome installed however when i vnc i still only have command line
[20:15] <Fryguy--> LieZ^: is vncserver running on a spearate virtual display?
[20:16] <Tem|laptop> ikonia, it amuses me that people still bother with that kind of griefing.  That's why I mention it.
[20:16] <LieZ^> thats what i cant work out i followed a guide in the forums and i think it is running on the remote display however i cant access that
[20:16] <ikonia> Tem|laptop: it's nothing to do with the channel, so best not to mention it in future
[20:17] <linduxed> hey guys, i just rebooted my comp because i got a window about HAL not responding (so i thought that it was a minor issue, even though killing and restarting the X-server didnt fix it). After reboot i get kernel panic with messages telling that it cant access RAMDISK, stuff about VFS and something about boot (just remember that word). Any idea what to do?
[20:17] <ikonia> linduxed: get an exact note of the error and let us know what it is
[20:18] <will02> what would be the easiest vnc server to set up? preferrably with a gui
[20:18] <CostaRicanQuaker> hey there, i have a problem i ahve a mounted ntsf partition, the icon that shortcuts to the file where i download stuff when i'm on windows is there but there are some new files that aren't showing up
[20:18] <CostaRicanQuaker> what's the issue?
[20:18] <CostaRicanQuaker>  how do i check if the partition's mounted properly?
[20:18] <jimqode> hello,  does anybody know how to specify the duration of a still image in kino?
[20:19] <linduxed> ikonia: then you
[20:19] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: your downloading shortcuts to the ntfs partition, not the file from what your saying
[20:19] <ikonia> jimqode: a still image is just that - an image
[20:19] <trashguy> will02, real men use the shell
[20:19] <ikonia> jimqode: how can you have a duration of a still image
[20:19] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: that's the shortcut i have
[20:19] <linduxed> ikonia: then you'd have to wait for me to reboot
[20:19] <CostaRicanQuaker> to the my stuff file
[20:19] <jimqode> ikonia, kino is a video editor
[20:19] <CostaRicanQuaker> which is on my wwindows ntsf partition
[20:19] <ikonia> linduxed: sure
[20:19] <ikonia> jimqode: I know - hence why I'm asking about a still image ?
[20:20] <will02> trashguy, i know, i use it, but my friend needs to set one up, hes been using linux for all of 2 months
[20:20] <jimqode> ikonia, suppose you want to make a slide show? or a title?
[20:20] <linduxed> ikonia :any general idea though?
[20:20] <ikonia> linduxed: I need the error
[20:20] <ikonia> jimqode: the questoin was the duration of a "still image" ?? I'd like an explination of that
[20:20] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: how do i check if the partition is properly mountaed?
[20:21] <CostaRicanQuaker> i went to the directory where the partition is supsoed to be and when i open the directory of it it shows empty
[20:21] <legend2440> CostaRicanQuaker: in terminal type   mount?
[20:21] <trashguy> will02, i belive it is as easy enabling remote desktop under system > prefrences
[20:21] <jimqode> ikonia, duration of the still image means the time that image is shown in the movie
[20:21] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: type "mount" and see if the file system is mounted
[20:21] <ikonia> jimqode: ahh so the time position of the image
[20:22] <jimqode> ikonia, time  position is "when" it is shown. What i want to change is "for what time" it is shown
[20:22] <jimqode> ikonia, or how long
[20:22] <ikonia> jimqode: ahh so a slide show for example, show for 10 seconds
[20:22] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: i got the following, http://paste.ubuntu.com/25763/ what do i do?
[20:23] <Storrgie> is there a good ISO creating utility for ubuntu?
[20:23] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: I dont see any ntfs partitions
[20:23] <ikonia> Storrgie: mkisofs
[20:23] <jimqode> ikonia, yes. that's what mean
[20:23] <ikonia> jimqode: thank you, that makes sense
[20:23] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia@ i just remembered, i reinstalled windows since i had mounted the ntsf partition
[20:24] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: ok ?
[20:24] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: does that change anything?
[20:24] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: probably, you'll need to re-moount it
[20:25] <LieZ^> how do i tell what virtual display VNC is running on?
[20:25] <Reformer81> Okay, this is seriously infuriating.  Ever since installing Hardy, I've had intense sound issues.  Once I use an application to play sound (usually Firefox and Flash), the entire sound system just stops working (tried using Pulse and ALSA).  Not even restarting X helps, I'm forced to reboot just to get my sound back.  Could someone please help me trouble-shoot this??
[20:25] <Reformer81> I've tried the whole "kill" Pulsa, ALSA, etc...
[20:25] <leeping2007> Reformer81, have you tried lsof and looking for what programs are using /dev/snd?
[20:26] <Storrgie> is there any good graphical iso creation tools in linux?
[20:26] <CostaRicanQuaker> ok, how do i a)check for which /dev/hda*  is the ntsf partition on, b) how do i mount it c)mount it meaning that everytime i reboot it will be there and i will be able to open it regardless of which desktop environment i log in, gnome, kde, or xubuntu
[20:26] <Reformer81> leeping2007: I'd love too, but its a LOT of info and |grep isn't working for it.
[20:27] <leeping2007> It's not?? How strange .. how about redirecting it to a file and searching it with emacs?
[20:27] <kokand> Hello everyone
[20:27] <v^x^y> hi
[20:27] <Reformer81> leeping2007: Nevermind, it's working...
[20:27] <leeping2007> :)
[20:28] <Reformer81> leeping2007: Mixerapp is the only thing using /dev/snd.
[20:28] <BlueColibri> storrgie wath about isomaster
[20:28] <Debian_Noobie> is there a java irc?
[20:28] <Reformer81> leeping2007: mixer_app  6142     nathan   20u      CHR      116,0              12437 /dev/snd/controlC0
[20:29] <leeping2007> Reformer81, I think mixerapp is just the volume control, but I'd kill it anyway and see if it works
[20:29] <Gat0rvean> does Kubuntu work with compiz? or just Ubuntu?
[20:29] <kokand> can u explain me how can i disable startup servises in ubuntu. Previously I've used fedora... and things were simple. Any advice?
[20:29] <matthew__> anyone know of backup software that will only copy what has changed? Because I really don't want to have to copy over 30GB of files every time I backup my home dir.
[20:29] <lizards> Hey i just made big mistake, i was messing around and accidently unchecked "gdm". After that i was looking at a fullscreen terminal, when i boot i am promted to login and it's just a terminal. How can i fix this :P?
[20:30] <lizards> right now i'm using a live CD
[20:30] <chuy_max> is there a way for grub to automatically detect my operative systems?
[20:30] <offset> matthew__: rsync?
[20:31] <Reformer81> leeping2007: No, that didn't do it either.
[20:31] <v^x^y> what are all these programs GUI made with ?
[20:31] <darrend> matthew__: rsnapshot (it's based on rsync and gives you nice time-series backups using hard-links)
[20:31] <Storrgie> is there any free graphical iso tools in linux?
[20:31] <bayar> hello
[20:31] <IndyGunFreak> Storrgie: to make isos or burn them?
[20:32] <Storrgie> create iso's from disk
[20:32] <Reformer81> chuy_max: Grub automaticaly detects them when it is installed.
[20:32] <Darknezz> easy question. how do you turn off x server?
[20:32] <bayar> what is the command to reinstall apache2 with confmiss
[20:32] <Reformer81> Storrgie: You could just run "cp /media/cdrom/ disc.iso"
[20:32] <IndyGunFreak> Storrgie: i think there's a couple of programs for creating ISOs,
[20:32] <iplaythisgame> lizards, sudo gdm start
[20:33] <Reformer81> Storrgie: Since all devices are treated as files in Linux, you can simply copy the disc to an .ISO file :)
[20:33] <darrend> Darknezz: sudo invoke-rc.d stop gdm
[20:33] <Storrgie> well i have been having an issue with movies
[20:33] <leeping2007> Hm... I don't know, Reformer81, have you tried looking in your dmesg for warnings and errors?
[20:33] <eyeslocal> Has anyone been able to get Citrix PNAgent to work in Ubuntu with 128-bit encryption?
[20:33] <Storrgie> i cant open some movies with VLC, it just wont play them when i tell it to open disk
[20:33] <Storrgie> i was going to copy the iso and try to read it that way
[20:33] <bombshelter13> Where's the normal place to add static routes on ubuntu server?
[20:33] <matthew__> darrend: will rsnapshot work properly with the NFTS support thing that comes with ubuntu? or will I have to reformat my drive?
[20:34] <chuy_max> Reformer81, I dont want to install grub again, so there must be another way
[20:34] <darrend> Darknezz: sorry, "gdm stop" not "stop gdm"
[20:34] <leeping2007> Also, I'm not sure if this is a related bug but you can check out http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=767359
[20:34] <Reformer81> leeping2007: I hadn't until just now... and this error is repeated at least a couple hundred times : [327181.251883] FAT: Directory bread(block 4121) failed
[20:34] <CostaRicanQuaker> ok, how do i a)check for which /dev/hda*  is the ntsf partition on, b) how do i mount it c)mount it meaning that everytime i reboot it will be there and i will be able to open it regardless of which desktop environment i log in, gnome, kde, or xubuntu
[20:34] <chuy_max> Reformer81, maybe dpkg-reconfigure?
[20:34] <Reformer81> chuy_max: Yeah, enter them into your menu.lst file manually.
[20:34] <Reformer81> chuy_max: You realize that setting up grub again takes a whole 2 minutes to do, right?
[20:34] <chuy_max> Reformer81, I dont want to do that either
[20:35] <bombshelter13> No one knows where to add static routes?
[20:35] <rickasdf> wooow
[20:35] <Reformer81> chuy_max: Then I'm afraid you're out of options.
[20:35] <chuy_max> Reformer81, as Im swapping hard disks all the time
[20:35] <rickasdf> this is a big channel
[20:35] <darrend> matthew__: pretty sure that shouldn't matter, but depends on how rsync figures out file deltas
[20:35] <rickasdf> 1382 nicks (1 op)
[20:35] <rickasdf> 1380
[20:35] <rickasdf> 1379
[20:35] <chuy_max> Reformer81, when u install ubuntu it is automatic, theremust be an option or something that makes it automatic
[20:35]  * Reformer81 slaps the crap out of rickasdf

[20:36] <CostaRicanQuaker> wubi

[20:42] <alphaman1101> supybot
[20:42] <alphaman1101> thats what i wanted
[20:42] <linduxed2> oh and the messages are written just so you get the general idea of the messsage
[20:42] <Darknezz> i want to install nvidia drivers and its telling me that x server is running and it says to exit x before installing. how would i doo that?
[20:42] <ikonia> Darknezz: whats wrong with the drivers from ubuntu
[20:42] <darrend> Darknezz: how are you trying to install them?
[20:42] <Reaper> How can I install a .rpm application?
[20:43] <rausb0> Reaper: man rpm
[20:43] <Myrtti> Reaper: which app are you trying to install?
[20:43] <ikonia> Reaper: your not meant to use rpm's with ubuntu
[20:43] <chris_> how do i install wolfenstein enemy territory
[20:43] <illogic-al> ikonia: that's fine, just wanted to let you know i'm experiencing the symptoms described at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/206635 . without all_generic_ide leading to a fix unfortunately.
[20:43] <darrend> Reaper: don't try unless you really know what you're doing :)
[20:43] <Reformer81> ugh... I'll just reboot then.  I've been asking for help with this issue since April, but no one else knows anything about it.  And Pulse was supposed to "fix" this problem (that I never had with ALSA)
[20:43] <ikonia> illogic-al: I'll have a look
[20:43] <Reaper> Aha..
[20:43] <Chaotic_Descent> Is there a way to change my Ubuntu account name?
[20:43] <xpLORE> hello all
[20:43]  * rausb0 resists !flood | ubottu :<
[20:43] <Reaper> Well it's actually, Limewire.
[20:43] <chris_> how do i install the wolfenstein enemy territory .run
[20:43] <rausb0> Reaper: http://frostwire.com
[20:43] <ikonia> chris_: make it executable and run it
[20:43] <chris_> how do i do that
[20:43] <Reformer81> Reaper: Yeah, I definitely recommend Frostwire too.
[20:44] <leeping2007> Reformer81, sorry :/ Good luck with finding a solution
[20:44] <Darknezz> darrend: yes
[20:44] <Reaper> But yet, I don't know how to manually install, rausb0 .
[20:44] <Reformer81> leeping2007: Thanks for your help, though
[20:44] <offset> chris_: chmod a+x *.run; ./*.run
[20:44] <xpLORE> install wine, then just run the executable
[20:44] <xpLORE> sudo apt-get install wine in terminal
[20:44] <meatpuppet> chris_ go into a console and type : sh installername.run
[20:44] <darrend> Darknezz: yes what?
[20:44] <rausb0> Reaper: Click the download for Frostwire and run it ..
[20:44] <sayotte> hm
[20:44] <Reformer81> Reaper: www.frostwire.com has a downloadable package for Ubuntu.  Just click on the link and follow the instructions.
[20:44] <chris_> meatpuppet i got an error when i did it with sudo sh.
[20:45] <linduxed2> ikonia ?
[20:45] <Reaper> Okay, Reformer81 .
[20:45] <ikonia> linduxed2: yes ?
[20:45] <ericpersson> and after feisty comes gutsy, right?
[20:45] <rausb0> Reaper: http://main2.frostwire.com/frostwire/4.13.5/frostwire-4.13.5.i586.deb
[20:45] <linduxed2> did you read the messages ikonia?
[20:45] <Jack_Sparrow> chris_ How to install anything in Ubuntu: http://monkeyblog.org/ubuntu/installing/
[20:45] <ikonia> linduxed2: what message ?
[20:45] <Darknezz> ikonia: i installed CS on wine and i can only play on software mode and not on openGL and i was reading a forum saying to instal the nvidia drivers.
[20:45] <Reaper> Thanks...

[20:45] <meatpuppet> chris_ DONT USE SUDO
[20:45] <ikonia> Darknezz: there are drivers already installed with ubuntu, what video card do you have
[20:45] <bobertdos> quick question, is nspluginwrapper EXCLUSIVELY available for the 64-bit build??
[20:45] <v^x^y> Every computer user should be able to use their software in the language of their choice.
[20:46] <ikonia> meatpuppet: don't use caps, sudo is supported and recommended
[20:46] <Reformer81> Maybe this will help.  When I lose my sound and have to reboot to get it back, I've tried running System -> Preferences -> Sound and clicking on "Test."  This is the error I get at that point: audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink: Failed to connect stream: Invalid argument
[20:46] <Reaper> rausb0: I'd still need you for manual installation, which I don't have a clue about...
[20:46] <meatpuppet> OK ikonia
[20:46] <Darknezz> darrend: sorry miss read it. i downloaded the drivers from nvidia website
[20:46] <rausb0> !caps | meatpuppet
[20:46] <ikonia> meatpuppet: thanks
[20:46] <Chousuke> ikonia: not for that purpose
[20:46]  * rausb0 lols at that
[20:46] <offset> Is anyone familiar with how to disable modules for the livecd. It keeps trying to enable my firewire port and hangs.
[20:46] <rausb0> Reaper: Why do you need me?
[20:46] <Darknezz> ikonia: i have a nvidia 6600
[20:46] <Reaper> rausb0: Add/Remove | Synaptic - is all I know by far....heh
[20:46] <ikonia> Darknezz: that is supported with the nvidia-glx package
[20:46] <Reaper> rausb0: Even when reading the readme files, I get into sorta problems.
[20:46] <ikonia> Chousuke: I didn't see the context - what was the contxt
[20:46] <Reaper> But I'll try.
[20:46] <rausb0> Reaper: Did you click "Run" when you downloaded it?
[20:46] <ikonia> context even
[20:46] <joaopinto> Reaper, to install a .deb, you just need to click on it from your browser
[20:47] <darrend> Darknezz: don't do that
[20:47] <Chousuke> ikonia: well I only saw "sudo sh"
[20:47] <Reformer81> Reaper: When you click to download that link, Firefox will ask you to open it with the default application (GDebi).  Go with that.
[20:47] <meatpuppet> so automount a volume requires me to manually edit fstab?
[20:47] <v^x^y> what is firefox made of?
[20:47] <Reformer81> Reaper: Once that opens, just click "Install Package"
[20:47] <Reaper> Ah
[20:47] <Darknezz> ikonia: but im having problems with openGL
[20:47] <Reaper> Erm...
[20:47] <Chousuke> v^x^y: javascript :P
[20:47] <Reaper> I am downloading.
[20:47] <ikonia> meatpuppet: that seems reasonble yes
[20:47] <Reaper> Not running.
[20:47] <Reformer81> v^x^y: Canine fire.
[20:47] <Chousuke> v^x^y: C++
[20:47] <v^x^y> and which library does it use for the graphics?
[20:47] <ikonia> Darknezz: run glxinfo
[20:47] <rausb0> Reaper: Well, once it's downloaded, double-click on it on your desktop
[20:47] <Chousuke> v^x^y: which graphics?
[20:47] <Reaper> Aha.
[20:47] <Reaper> Okay.
[20:47] <Storrgie> is there a way to set my default media player to VLC?
[20:48] <joaopinto> v^x^y, on linux, gtk
[20:48] <Chousuke> v^x^y: probably Cairo on linux, anyway
[20:48] <linduxed2> ikonia: any idea having read the messages?
[20:48] <meatpuppet> not really manually editing text files is something I gave up in the late 1980's
[20:48] <Reformer81> rausb0: Guess he's only listening to you :)
[20:48] <Reaper> rausb0:  Ah, then .deb is actually kinda like .exe ?
[20:48] <ikonia> linduxed2: I've not seen any messages from you
[20:48] <v^x^y> thank you everyone
[20:48] <rausb0> Reaper: I'll put it this way - You manage to mess this up, go check yourself into a mental institution :o
[20:48] <Chousuke> Reaper: no, it's more like a .zip
[20:48] <Reaper> Aha
[20:48] <rausb0> Reaper: In a way, sorta.
[20:48] <Chousuke> Reaper: with additional info
[20:48] <joaopinto> Reaper, more like an .msi
[20:48] <Darknezz> ikonia: im still new to this. what command should i type?
[20:48] <Reaper> rausb0: Excuse me, I didn't know that .deb goes this way..
[20:48] <bobertdos> ﻿Storrgie: yes
[20:48] <ikonia> Darknezz: glxinfo - as I just said
[20:48] <Reaper> I thought it was .tar.gz/.bz2 or whatever
[20:49] <J2> hey guys, what linux kernel does ubuntu 6.06 use?
[20:49] <Storrgie> bobertdos: i would love to know, please
[20:49] <Chousuke> Reaper: .deb files are archives that contain the files you want to install and information about their dependencies and such
[20:49] <ikonia> J2: 2.6.15 I believe
[20:49] <linduxed2> ikonia: hmm then the kube us too long and it didnt get posted
[20:49] <Reaper> rausb0: Like for .tar formats, I don't know yet how to sort them out...
[20:49] <yosho> hey. Is there any solution to the /home/user/.gvfs permission denied thing?
[20:49] <J2> ikonia - thanks

[20:50] <linduxed2> ikonia: Please append a correct root= boot option; Kernel panic, not syncing VFS
[20:50] <ikonia> linduxed2: your grub config is messed up here
[20:50] <joaopinto> yosho, what ~.gvfdsdenied thing ? could you describe your problem ?
[20:50] <Chousuke> Chaotic_Descent: hmmh
[20:50] <ikonia> linduxed2: what have you done to change your grub config
[20:50] <Darknezz> ikonia: extension "GLX" missing on display
[20:50] <bobertdos> ﻿Storrgie: System->Preferences->Preferred Applications->Multimedia
[20:50] <Chousuke> Chaotic_Descent: that requires editing some files in a way that you could mess up real bad :P
[20:50] <ikonia> Darknezz: ok - so open the hardware drivers menu from system->administation
[20:50] <bobertdos> ﻿Storrgie: then select custom command and enter the command for vlc

[20:51] <ak5> hello, I am giving remote support to someone with ubuntu, I need the exec plugin for pidgin, what package in the repos has this?
[20:51] <v^x^y> does GIMP use GTK? and Cairo?
[20:51] <Storrgie> it is
[20:51] <linduxed2> ikonia: i havent changed anything at all, and i use LILO by the way
[20:51] <Chaotic_Descent> Chousuke: great. :S I just wish I'd known things like IRC would start using my username in my whois.
[20:51] <Chousuke> v^x^y: GTK stands for Gimp toolkit

[20:57] <Chousuke> Chaotic_Descent: that copies the files; you can also use mv, but that may mess up your old user
[20:57] <spikemcc> how udev rules for game controllers work ????
[20:57] <Chousuke> Chaotic_Descent: if you make a mistake
[20:57] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: I asked you to do /dev/sda
[20:58] <Chaotic_Descent> Chousuke: I was reading something about chown. that works?
[20:58] <bobertdos> ﻿Storrgie: Offical movies, right?
[20:58] <Chousuke> Chaotic_Descent: chown changes file ownership
[20:58] <yosho> joaopinto: what's the command to see folder permissions? (Still newbing)
[20:58] <Storrgie> bobertdos: yea i rented like 10 movies to tide me over this week
[20:58] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: nothing happened
[20:58] <ak5> yosho: ls -l
[20:58] <linduxed2> ikonia: i personally think the hdd has gone bad in key sectors, and when speaking about the grub-optical-thing, let me just assure you that ive done extensive research and it is grub that causes that problem
[20:58] <Chousuke> Chaotic_Descent: your new user must own the files in his homedir :P
[20:58] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: thats quite worrying, and your %100 using ubuntu 8.04 ?
[20:58] <blittan> anyone having slow wireless? have a belkin usb 7050 wireless 54g
[20:58] <Chaotic_Descent> but won't there be files under the old user account that still uses the old account name instead of the new one?
[20:59] <joaopinto> yofel, ls -la ~/.gvfs
[20:59] <Darknezz> ikonia: sorry about the wait i was AFK. i will try it now
[20:59] <Chousuke> Chaotic_Descent: yes, but once you've copied them and changed owner on the copied files, you can remove the old user and his files.
[20:59] <joaopinto> ops i meant yosho , and its ls -lad
[20:59] <ikonia> Darknezz: not a problem
[20:59] <ak5> Jack_Sparrow: thx a bunch, you are the person who always helps me with ubuntu woes :)
[20:59] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: i upgraded to ubuntu hardy yesterday yes, i ,logged in on xfce though i-m on xubuntu right now
[20:59] <Jack_Sparrow> np
[20:59] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: please show me "uname -a"
[20:59] <Darknezz> ikonia: it says i need to restart. is there anything alse i have to do?
[21:00] <ak5> Jack_Sparrow: no, you are teh bomb :)
[21:00] <Chousuke> Chaotic_Descent: make sure you make your new user an admin too though :)
[21:00] <ikonia> Darknezz: restart and lets see where we are
[21:00] <linduxed2> ikonia: i personally think the hdd has gone bad in key sectors, and when speaking about the grub-optical-thing, let me just assure you that....
[21:00] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: Linux sebastian 2.6.15-52-386 #1 PREEMPT Mon Jun 9 17:24:46 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
[21:00] <linduxed2> ikonia: .... ive done extensive research and it is grub that causes that problem
[21:00] <Chousuke> Chaotic_Descent: otherwise you'll lose access to sudo if you delete the old user
[21:00] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: thats not 8.04
[21:00] <Darknezz> ikonia: kk i will be back
[21:00] <Chaotic_Descent> I thought you weren't supposed to use admin accounts.
[21:00] <ikonia> linduxed2: I don't doubt it, I just find it hard to accept
[21:00] <yosho> ok, joaopinto, how do I decipher this? I get "dr-x------- 2 yoshokatana yoshokatana 0" then date and time
[21:00] <Storrgie> bobertdos: any ideas?
[21:00] <Chousuke> Chaotic_Descent: "admin" doesn't mean root
[21:00] <jamus> howdy , how do i make gparted live cd?
[21:00] <joaopinto> yosho, that file is owned by you, you are not expected to use sudo
[21:01] <Chousuke> Chaotic_Descent: any user who is able to use sudo is "admin"
[21:01] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: but i upgraded yesterday
[21:01] <yosho> joaopinto: then "drwx------- 47 yoshokatana yoshokatana 4096" date/time
[21:01] <ikonia> jamus: just use the ubuntu livecd and install gparted
[21:01] <Chaotic_Descent> ... why is my mouse cursor now a grabbing hand with the user icon?
[21:01] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: nope - your still running 6.06
[21:01] <jamus> or else part this  hd using gparted
[21:01] <IndyGunFreak> Chaotic_Descent: theme change?
[21:01] <linduxed2> ikonia: i think ill go reinstall ubuntu, thatll solve it
[21:01] <Chousuke> Chaotic_Descent: what did you do?
[21:01] <CostaRicanQuaker> how do i upgrade? i opened the software manager or wahtever for 6 hours and it downloaded and then it reinstalled and what not
[21:01] <joaopinto> yosho, what is your problem in the first place ? Why do you need to change the file permissions ?
[21:01] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: did you upgrade ubuntu or xubuntu ?
[21:01] <CostaRicanQuaker> i did it from kde though but it's the same thing no?
[21:02] <CostaRicanQuaker> i upgraded from dapper to hardy...logged on kde
[21:02] <Chaotic_Descent> hrm. nevermind. it must have thought I was dragging the user accounts app instead of loading it. -_-; circumstances are being really difficult for me today.
[21:02] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: doesn't matter on the desktop, should all be the same
[21:02] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[21:02] <ericpersson> should be possible to upgrade from feisty to gutsy, right?
[21:02] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: the upgade didn't happen, your still running or booting form 6.06 kernel
[21:02] <yosho> joaopinto: I needed to fix the "$HOME/.dmrc file is being ignored" error
[21:02] <CostaRicanQuaker> but the login window looks different when i reboot
[21:02] <CostaRicanQuaker> hold on ikonia i'll brb
[21:03] <joaopinto> yofel, erm, .dmrc is not related to .gvfs !
[21:03] <x3> is tehre a way to get a more up to date repository?
[21:03] <IndyGunFreak> ericpersson: it should be pretty easy,...
[21:03] <joaopinto> yosho, ls -lad $HOME/.dmrc
[21:03] <IndyGunFreak> x3: what version of ubuntua re you using?
[21:03] <jamus> i have a ver of ubuntu that has a part thingy but i didnt figure how to use it
[21:03] <yosho> joaopinto: one moment...
[21:04] <x3> 8.04
[21:04] <jamus> its rediculus im running ubu on 250 disk
[21:04] <jamus> :))
[21:04] <Chaotic_Descent> HAH! I deleted the new user account because it wasn't admin. I tried to make it again and the old folder still exists so I can't create it using the same name.
[21:04] <TheManiacKY> I only have Bash/Shell access to my linux box right now, How can I tell Linux to burn an iso to a black CD in the CDRW drive?
[21:04] <bobertdos> ﻿Storrgie: I can walk you through the packages you need, if you want me to.
[21:04] <IndyGunFreak> well how much more up to date to you need it?.. the distro is only 4mo old
[21:04] <TheManiacKY> black=blank
[21:04] <ericpersson> IndyGunFreak: seem to get a few broken dependencies when trying dist-upgrade, but cant seem to find which packages it is..
[21:04] <Storrgie> bobertdos: do i need packages even though im using vlc?
[21:04] <IndyGunFreak> ericpersson: when going from feisty to gutsy?
[21:04] <jbroome> TheManiacKY: cdrecord -dao -eject -data <isofile>
[21:04] <joaopinto> TheManiacKY, use cdrecord
[21:05] <ericpersson> IndyGunFreak: yeah..
[21:05] <bobertdos> yes, yes you do :p
[21:05] <Chaotic_Descent> when is it going to delete the folder for the deleted user so that I can create it again? do I have to restart, or delete it manually?
[21:05] <x3> theres plenty of packages that are outdated by two sometimes more versins
[21:05] <IndyGunFreak> ericpersson: thats kinda weird, where are the broken dependencies, are they in third party repos?
[21:05] <Storrgie> really do you?
[21:05] <TheManiacKY> jbroome IndyGunFreak Great Thanks guys!
[21:05] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: i just logged on kde
[21:05] <ericpersson> IndyGunFreak: dont know, not sure how to list them..
[21:05] <bobertdos> ﻿Storrgie: but basically just one :D
[21:05] <CostaRicanQuaker> how do i check which version i'm on
[21:05] <Storrgie> well hit me!
[21:05] <joaopinto> x3, only critical bug fixes are applied to the current released versions
[21:05] <yosho> joaopinto: well, I just restarted. No error messages, but I didn't get any panels or wallpaper.
[21:05] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: I just told you the desktop doesn't matter
[21:05] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: show me uname -a please.
[21:05] <joaopinto> yosho, I have asked for the ls output :)
[21:06] <joaopinto> CosMiC_Touch, please pastebin the result from lsb_release -a
[21:06] <ericpersson> IndyGunFreak: perhaps a aptitude upgrade first fixes it..
[21:06] <CostaRicanQuaker> Linux sebastian 2.6.15-52-386 #1 PREEMPT Mon Jun 9 17:24:46 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
[21:06] <joaopinto> ops, was CostaRicanQuaker
[21:06] <x3> what about updating buggy softwares
[21:06] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: your still running the 6.06 kernel
[21:06] <Jack_Sparrow> x3 those are seldom big changes.. it you must have bleeding edge versions,, have plenty of bandaids
[21:06] <yosho> yep, here it is: "-rw------ 1 yoshokatana yoshokatana 28" time/date
[21:06] <joaopinto> x3, if the bug is critical it will probably be fixed
[21:06] <IndyGunFreak> ericpersson: possible.. make sure your system is completely up to date, then go for the system upgrade
[21:06] <bullgard4> [Evolution] I have got 2 local calendars. I am asked if either of them is marked for offline duplication. I do not know what is meant by 'offline duplication' of an Evolution calendar. Can you explain? I did not find this term in the Evolution 2.22 User Guide.
[21:06] <x3> ebox is breakes ubuntu thunderbird freezes
[21:06] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: why did the upgrade not work? it took hours and it did everything it said it was going to do adn then when it restarted the log in screen looked different a nd i think some new apps where installed
[21:07] <tn712> come to tn712 canal
[21:07] <leeping2007> Hey there, I'm trying to install the Intel fortran compiler for ubuntu.  Can anyone help me get started?
[21:07] <ericpersson> IndyGunFreak: yeah, trying to get to hardy, but one step at the time..
[21:07] <ikonia> bullgard4: it means syncronised locally with a central server
[21:07] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: what do i do?
[21:07] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: when you get your grub menu - how many options do you have (or pastebin /boot/grub/menu.lst for me to look at)
[21:07] <bullgard4> ikonia: Thank you for explaining.
[21:07] <IndyGunFreak> ericpersson: i bet that will take a while, why not just backup, clean install hardy, you'll be done in an hour
[21:07] <x3> ok is ter a place where I xan get deb packages of the laterst softwares
[21:07] <tn712> channel tn712
[21:08] <ActionParsnip> !alternative
[21:08] <joaopinto> leeping2007, it would be easier to use one of the fortran compilers available on the repositories...
[21:08] <Jack_Sparrow> x3 If you want the latest release, then you need to compile it yourself or see if a deb for Ubuntu is available.  It will not show up in the repos..   Only critical bug fixes are applied to the current released versions..  If you have installed later versions and have a bunch of mismatched dependencies..  there isnt much people can do to help you

[21:08] <matthew__> how can I rename a USB NFTS drive?
[21:08] <joaopinto> x3, you can set updates for some packages from getdeb.net, but you really should only get if you need them, not just because they are new
[21:08] <leeping2007> joaopinto, I can't use the compilers on the repositories.  They are unsupported for the program that I am trying to compile
[21:08] <IndyGunFreak> CostaRicanQuaker: sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[21:08] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: you don't run that file - you open it in a text editor, and use the pastebin
[21:08] <joaopinto> leeping2007, ah ok :\
[21:08] <Jack_Sparrow> IndyGunFreak gksudo gedit
[21:09] <IndyGunFreak> Jack_Sparrow: eh, true.. i was just looking at his line.. and wasn't thinking.. i'm usually anal about that.
[21:09] <x3> Jack_sparrow I get what u mean but I was hoping you could point me to a secret stach
[21:09] <tclineks> don't think this is possible but can i link one one file to another without using more inodes until i modify one of the files?
[21:09] <Jack_Sparrow> :)
[21:09] <Dr_willis> CostaRicanQuaker,  menu.lst is a config file you edit., not a command you run
[21:09] <matthew__> how can I rename a USB NFTS drive?
[21:09] <ikonia> matthew__: just mount it like a normal scsi drive
[21:10] <x3> I ahve several issues this is why I want to get newer ones for some (not all)
[21:10] <Dr_willis> matthew__,  if you mean 'relabel' you can  set the volume name from windows, or use the ntfstools package. it has some label command
[21:10] <tn712> channel yn712
[21:10] <Darknezz> ikonia: i got it to work but my res is low and i cant turn it up :-S
[21:10] <eth01> start with nano and then progress onto vi etc
[21:10] <tn712> *tn712
[21:10] <yosho> hmm. How would I go about getting my panel back? (some terminal command?)
[21:10] <eth01> MUCH easier.
[21:10] <ericpersson> IndyGunFreak: hmm.. quite a lot of configuring to do, since its a mythtvbox
[21:10] <Aquina> `lo
[21:10] <matthew__> ikonia: It has the name "BACK UP" though, and the space is messing with my backup program
[21:10] <ikonia> matthew__: change the label in windows then
[21:10] <ikonia> Darknezz: what does hardware driver manager show now ?
[21:11] <IndyGunFreak> ericpersson: yeah, bu tthink about it, you think all that upgrading is gonnna go smooth?
[21:11] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25774/
[21:11] <Darknezz> ikonia: that its in use
[21:11] <tn712> channel tn712
[21:11] <ericpersson> IndyGunFreak: well, if it doesnt, i could just install windows and reinstall every six months.. ;)
[21:11] <chasmarang> I sent a cd I copied into the trash now I cant empty it has anyone run into this problem
[21:12] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: your not chosing the 8.04 kernel
[21:12] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: your selecting Ubuntu 8.04.1, kernel 2.6.15-52-386
[21:12] <TheManiacKY> Is it worth running a 64 bit Linux OS on a Server with only 3 GIG of Ram? The process supports 64 Bit/VT but I wasn't for sure if its like in the Windows world that you won't really see any benefits? Does the Linux Kernel really take advantage of 64bit in a noticable difference compared to running it on the same hardware in 32bit?
[21:12] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: your menu.lst file is messed up
[21:12] <IndyGunFreak> ericpersson: eh, but you're still forgetting the fact you have to worry about constantly being accosted by spyware/malware/viruses on Windows.. I clean install Ubuntu every 6mo, doesn't bother me
[21:12] <IndyGunFreak> but i keep insane backups
[21:12] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: how do i fix it?
[21:12] <SNuxoll> TheManiacKY: depends on what you run on it
[21:12] <ikonia> TheManiacKY: it will take advantage if your on hardware that setup to use it, and your doing work that will benifit from it
[21:12] <yosho> uh oh. what is the program that controls the panels in gnome? (not gnome-panel, but the normal ones, with the clock, menu's, etc)
[21:12] <leeping2007> I think I found the Intel fortran compiler.  The processor architectures that it offers are IA-32, IA-64, and Intel(R) 64.  Can I install the latter on my amd64 operating system?
[21:12] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: select Ubuntu 8.04.1, kernel 2.6.24-19-386
[21:13] <SNuxoll> TheManiacKY: 64bit CPU's also have math extensions, so I'd assume you'd probably get at least some benefit out of it
[21:13] <ericpersson> IndyGunFreak: sounds insane, i installed debian on my laptop 3 years ago, still runs like a rock..
[21:13] <CostaRicanQuaker> ok brb
[21:13] <joaopinto> leeping2007, if you have installed the 64bits ubuntu, you should
[21:13] <TheManiacKY> SNuxoll Oh okay tx
[21:13] <IndyGunFreak> erichammond: yeah, i've had Debian on 2 boxes for probably 2yrs...
[21:14] <IndyGunFreak> ericpersson: i just clean install when new distros come out.. no other time, i hate upgrading an OS.. hated it w/ Windows(always clean installed there to, despite the $$), and I hate it w/ linux
[21:14] <leeping2007> joaopinto, thank you :)
[21:15] <Darknezz> ikonia: that its in use
[21:15] <TheManiacKY> Does the Ubuntu 8.x servers make use of the VT Virtual technologies in the Intel processors for anything? Or only if you are using servers ontop of linux like VMWare or Xen?
[21:15] <ikonia> Darknezz: ok - thats a start, so what does glxinfo show ?
[21:15] <matthew__> how can I find out the name of a mounted device?
[21:15] <ericpersson> IndyGunFreak: that used to be the beuty of debian and i hoped with ubuntu as well..
[21:15] <yosho> hey, joaopinto, what command will restart my panels? (running gnome, not sure what the panels are called)
[21:15] <ikonia> matthew__: look at it's mount point
[21:15] <Darknezz> ikonia: same thing as before
[21:16] <chasmarang> I sent a cd I copied into the trash now I cant empty it has anyone run into this problem
[21:16] <matthew__> ikonia: um... how do I do that? I'm a noob.
[21:16] <yosho> (menu bar? taskbar?)
[21:16] <ikonia> Darknezz: what about glxgears, does that show dri enabled ?
[21:16] <ikonia> matthew__: where is your disk mounted ?
[21:16] <ikonia> matthew__: as in what mount point
[21:16] <Zelos> Hi there!
[21:16] <IndyGunFreak> ericpersson: i agree w/ you. if debian had a little bit better hardware support on my newer boxes, i'd debian on everything(right now, i have 2 ubuntu machines, 2 Debian machines.. each consisting of 1 PC and 1 Laptop)
[21:16] <Darknezz> ikonia: Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual
[21:16] <matthew__> ikonia: um, i'm not really sure, I access the drive through /media/BACK UP/
[21:16] <Darknezz> ikonia: thats all i get
[21:17] <Darknezz> ikonia: like over and over again
[21:17] <ikonia> matthew__: so the lavel is "BACK UP"
[21:17] <ikonia> Darknezz: I see
[21:17] <matthew__> ikonia: ok, thanks!
[21:17] <chasmarang> I sent a cd I copied into the trash now I cant empty it - ca anyone help me empty it
[21:17] <ikonia> Darknezz: I'll have to have a little ponder on that
[21:17] <amenado> chasmarang-> you go and remove contents of .Trash directory
[21:17] <Zelos> Is there an "easy" way in Ubuntu to prevent Applications from stealing fokus (I am using gnome)?
[21:17] <joaopinto> !resetpanels | yosho
[21:18] <IndyGunFreak> joaopinto: thats a great bot addition, hadn't saw that one, but it comes up here a lot
[21:18] <Darknezz> ikonia: ...ok. how can i change the res or change the video card/monitor  so i can change the res?
[21:18] <matthew__> ikonia: hmm, ntfs label says that the device doesn't exist, does it want a /dev/XXX style of thing or something? and how would I find that out?
[21:18] <ericpersson> IndyGunFreak: yeah, hardware is always the issue...
[21:18] <ikonia> Darknezz: you can force that in your xorg.conf
[21:18] <ikonia> matthew__: I don't trust changing ntfs parameters in linux - I'd change them in windows,
[21:18] <IndyGunFreak> ericpersson: and Ubuntu has top notch hardware detection/support
[21:19] <joaopinto> :)
[21:19] <illogic-al> ikonia: card wasn't making proper contact w/ the slot. i got it to show up just now.
[21:19] <illogic-al> hopefully it still works on reboot
[21:19] <ikonia> illogic-al: oh, thats excellent, well done
[21:19] <Darknezz> ikonia: .1 .2 or .3?
[21:19] <ikonia> Darknezz: ?
[21:19] <matthew__> ikonia: I hate windows >.<, but I guess I have to try that
[21:19] <ikonia> matthew__: then don't use windows file systems ?
[21:20] <ikonia> matthew__: format it with a native linux file system
[21:20] <matthew__> ikonia: the drive has some of my family's stuff on it though, and they use windows
[21:20] <angasule> hmm, my other PC is failing to boot, it says it can't mount /dev/hda2 on /root, which is kinda funny, since it's booting from /dev/hda2 :/
[21:20] <ikonia> matthew__: buy your own drive then
[21:20] <Darknezz> ikonia: nevermind
[21:20] <matthew__> ikonia: I guess I can setup an ext3 partition...
[21:20] <ikonia> matthew__: sure if you want to re-partition it
[21:21] <yosho> erm..not gnome-panel, but the panels where I find time/menu/application switcher/volume/etc. what are those called, joaopinto ?
[21:21] <_2> what might cause this ?   http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/?show=d66715322
[21:21] <ShinjinAkage> My system monitor is badly messed up. The GUI is screwy, it only takes half of it's box up and I still have to click on the other side of the box instead of it's actual location. Any suggestions?
[21:21] <_2> angasule booting from and being able to mount are two entirely different things
[21:21] <Darknezz> ikonia: how would i change it in xorg.conf?
[21:21] <Qwexer> hello all, is anyone else having a problem with their stumpleupon toolbar missing in firefox?
[21:21] <Darknezz> ikonia: or get into it for that matter
[21:22] <ikonia> Darknezz: the xorg config file is /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[21:22] <angasule> _2: well, it can be mounted, I think, I did an fsck already
[21:22] <ShinjinAkage> Qwexer: I'm not, but then again I haven't restarted firefox in days
[21:22] <matthew__> ikonia: hopefully gparted doesn't take as long as it did when I had to resize my main partition
[21:22] <Darknezz> ikonia: im in the file right now but what do i change?
[21:22] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: i just checked i cant boot up if i choose 8.04
[21:23] <Qwexer> I believe firefox crashed and when I rebooted, it was gone..I've uninstalled and reinstalled but to no avail
[21:23] <ikonia> Darknezz: just be patient will you please, I've just said I'm looking at your card and driver vesions
[21:23] <CostaRicanQuaker> if i do it gets me to this prompt that says debian dot some numbers ubuntu something
[21:23] <CostaRicanQuaker> and it says something like intrd
[21:23] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: please get the exact error
[21:23] <CostaRicanQuaker> that's the reason why i was scrolling down to the other option
[21:23] <_2> angasule but the correct kernel modules have to be inserted in the kernel before it can be mounted.   i.e. ide-disk ext3
[21:23] <CostaRicanQuaker> er...there's no error it says debian...ok hold on
[21:23] <valiza1> is there eye tracker support ?
[21:24] <angasule> _2: ext3 is a module? doesn't make much sense...
[21:24] <KDB9000> is there anyone in here that is part of the Laptop Test Team?
[21:24] <x3> is there anyone else that thinks kernel 2.6.24.19 is a bit unstable?
[21:24] <ikonia> x3: no
[21:24] <x3> I tested a laptop
[21:24] <Dr_willis> all the filesystems can be modules, or built into the kernel.
[21:24] <_2> angasule may i sujest you look into rebuilding the initramfs.img seeing that it's in the initramfs that all that takes place   and yes i agree disk and fs support should be in the default kernel
[21:24] <Darknezz> ikonia: o sorry about that.
[21:24] <_2> angasule but i didn't build the thing...   and it's not.
[21:25] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: busybox (Debian 1:1.1.3-5ubuntu12) built in shell (ash) enterhelp for a liust of cuilt in commands
[21:25] <x3> what laptop yuou wanna wack ubuntu in
[21:25] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: looks like your upgrade didn't go well
[21:25] <ikonia> x3: what ?
[21:25] <ikonia> x3: please talk in clear english
[21:25] <x3> xps 1710 is ok xps 1730 is ok
[21:25] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: uh huh...how do i fix it?
[21:25] <x3> all inspiron are ok
[21:26] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: looks like your grub setup is pretty messed up
[21:26] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: at a guess,
[21:26] <CostaRicanQuaker> i had to resintall grub from an install cd
[21:26] <KDB9000> x3: I am installing ubuntu onto my HP Pavilion dv5000 (AMD64 CPU). I believe the exact model is a dv5100 CTO, still checking on that.
[21:26] <xaustenx> so, i have Evemon installed into Wine, Evemon runs off the .Net crap and i have all the Mono stuff install for Hardy, is there a reason why Evemon isn't running off of Wine?
[21:26] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: why ?
[21:26] <x3> iconia <KDB9000> is there anyone in here that is part of the Laptop Test Team?
[21:26] <CostaRicanQuaker> because after i deleted and resintalled windows it wouldnt run
[21:26] <CostaRicanQuaker> grub that is
[21:26] <ikonia> x3: no
[21:27] <ZZZZ> Hi all. I have some problem with squidGuard. Could anybody help me with it here?
[21:27] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: what install cd did you use
[21:27]  * m_newton is away: loligaging at the wee hours of nite; just to say hi to all and host my server.
[21:27] <CostaRicanQuaker> er...breezy badger
[21:27] <matthew__> ikonia: If I make a new partition, should it be ext2 or ext3?
[21:27] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: thats not good
[21:27] <AMLNXUSR> I am having issues with my sound card since i upgraded to 8.04.. hoping someone can help meout
[21:27] <x3> KDB it should be fine but I recommned the live cd first
[21:27] <ikonia> matthew__: up to you, ext3 is common
[21:27] <matthew__> ikonia: ext3 then
[21:27] <_2> ikonia just a thought about that busybox shell   upgrading from breezy to hardy he probably went from hda to sda "scsi emulation"  might just be a root= issue.
[21:28] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: how can i download an .iso image of kubuntu from the terminal(which i hope will give me the accurate by coming directly from the repos)
[21:28] <x3> Ikonia anay particular words not mankindg sense to you of what I say/
[21:28] <angasule> I just checked... and if I boot in recovery mode, I can mount /dev/hda2 no problem
[21:28] <Juan_> hi
[21:28] <Juan_> i have a question
[21:28] <ikonia> _2: very possible but his menu.lst is using uuid so that should be fine, I suspect its most likley not uuid aware as it's an old grub version
[21:28] <chasmarang> amendo: do you mean like home/.Trash
[21:28] <Juan_> how do i fully install ubuntu on a pc.
[21:29] <KDB9000> x3: I have already done testing with another hard drive in the laptop and it works for the most part. The quickplay buttons (DVD and quickplay) and the wireless button have trouble working, but other then that it works like a dream. Needed to update the firmware for my wireless to work.
[21:29] <Juan_> without windows running on it
[21:29] <Juan_> just ubuntu
[21:29] <vivaslb> hi all
[21:29] <ikonia> Juan_: put an install cd in - click install in the top left corner, walk through the install
[21:29] <Juan_> i know
[21:29] <_2> ikonia i hadn't seen his menu.lst   sorry on that.  but: breezy's grub supported uuid
[21:29] <Dr_willis> Juan_,
[21:29] <Juan_> but i only want ubuntu not windows
[21:29] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: now i remember after i upgraded i couldn't get the 8.04 version to boot up so thats why i kept running from the old one however it did download some new programs and some things looked different
[21:29] <Juan_> like delete the windows and have only the ubunutu
[21:29] <KDB9000> x3: the wireless turns off my bluetooth but that is it, it doesn't turn the wifi off. That isn't that big of a deal because I am always using wifi.
[21:30] <ikonia> _2: no need to apologise, I don't know if breezy supports uuid ?
[21:30] <x3> there are wireless drivers that werk great
[21:30] <Dr_willis> Juan_,   delete windows partitions using gparted then, let ubuntu take over rest of the kd.
[21:30] <mrichman> Anyone know how to open PDFs inside Firefox without opening a helper app?
[21:30] <_2> ikonia yes it did.
[21:30] <Juan_> whats gparted?
 angasule may i sujest you look into rebuilding the initramfs.img seeing that it's in the initramfs that all that takes place <-- how do I do this?
[21:30] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: what do i do
[21:30] <Dr_willis> Juan_,  actually the installer asks "use all of hard drive' I beluive.. that will remove everything on the hd.
[21:30] <x3> on mine both intel 4965agn and 3945abg were 100%
[21:30] <Dr_willis> !gparted | Juan_
[21:30] <vivaslb> anyone know how to make sure a particular package (evolution in this case) stays at a given version, when upgrading the distro. i want to stay with gutsy version of evolution but upgrade rest to hardy.
[21:30] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: not sure at this moment
[21:30] <KDB9000> x3: ya, I can use the b43 drive, just need to dot he firmware update and I was able to connect to my wireless with WPA
[21:30] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: i could do a clean install right?
[21:30] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: sure
[21:31] <CostaRicanQuaker> how do i get an error free perfect hash sums image .iso file
[21:31] <_2> angasule chroot and mkinitramfs  are the two commands involved.
[21:31] <Juan_> alright i have a window up that says demo and full instalation install inside windows and learn more
[21:31] <CostaRicanQuaker> from the terminal
[21:31] <x3> ah
[21:31] <Juan_> which one do i pick to make the harddrive only ubuntu
[21:31] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: use wget to download it
[21:31] <Juan_> without widows running on it
[21:31] <KDB9000> x3: but I asked because I would like to add my dv5000 to the wiki
[21:31] <CostaRicanQuaker> wget?
[21:31] <_2> angasule there should be a howto on the interweb
[21:31] <ikonia> Juan_: if windows isn't on your machine it doesn't matter
[21:31] <Dr_willis> Juan_,  thats wubi.. you BOOT the linux instller cd.. to totally remove windows.
[21:31] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: please specify a path way and i'll do it
[21:31] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: a path way ?
[21:31] <KDB9000> but I have to go so I will have to try and get them later.
[21:32] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: just go to the download site on http://www.ubuntu.com
[21:32] <x3> wpa or wpa2 u want?
[21:32] <CostaRicanQuaker> no no no ikonia: that site never gives me right hashes for the cdrs
[21:32] <CostaRicanQuaker> and a lot of them end up wasted
[21:32] <Juan_> ok so i should shut off my pc and click like f11 to boot from the ubuntu cd?
[21:32] <CostaRicanQuaker> or not installing
[21:32] <rogue_trader> hmm anyone else experiencing system freezes? yes its ATI vs compiz but somehow the constant freezing seems to be ubuntu-specific
[21:32] <Juan_> and the click erase windows?
[21:32] <Dr_willis> Juan_,  if thats how you boot from cd.. yes.
[21:32] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: it will do - if it's not, its most likley your connection/isp causing issues
[21:32] <Juan_> that will erase windows?
[21:32] <Dr_willis> Juan_,  the installer will ask if you want to use 'all' of the hard drive..
[21:33] <rogue_trader> I have to urge to install gentoo or arch to finally be in control of everything going on harharhar *world domination mode on*
[21:33] <kornal> hello all I have a Question: Pcman took over my menu bar how can I get the menu bar back to using Nautilus as default?
[21:33] <_2> CostaRicanQuaker as per dl from terminal    wget address
[21:33] <vivaslb> Juan_ when you get to the part where you partition the hard drive, choose use entire hard drive and automatic
[21:33] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: never mind then, i'll just wait to receive the kubuntu cds i ordered from canonical
[21:33] <x3> gosh I hate thunderbird it freezes 80% of the time
[21:33] <Juan_> alright so i click install ubuntu
[21:33] <CostaRicanQuaker> how do i mount the ntsf partition however
[21:33] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia:
[21:33] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: ok
[21:33] <Darknezz> ikonia: any luck?
[21:33] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: mount /dev/hda1 /mnt
[21:33] <ikonia> Darknezz: nothing obvious for 6600's
[21:33] <Juan_> in the ubuntu installation
[21:34] <vivaslb> yes Juan
[21:34] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: will it keep mounted after rebooting? there;s a specific directory
[21:34] <_2>    what might cause this ?   http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/?show=d66715322
[21:34] <CostaRicanQuaker> media/CDrive in the home folder
[21:34] <CostaRicanQuaker> where it has to be mounted i think
[21:34] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: no it on't moount by default, put it in your /etc/fstab file
[21:34] <IndyGunFreak> Juan_: make sure you have any important files backed up(music, etc..)
[21:34] <Darknezz> ikonia: damn. but how do i change the res in xorg.conf file?
[21:34] <Juan_> it says this kernel requires an x86-64 cpu, but only detected and i686 cpu. unable to boot - please use a kernel appropriate for your cpu
[21:35] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: how do i open my fstab file?
[21:35] <cl0s> is there any other PC manufacturer that pre-packages linux, preferably Ubuntu, besides System 76?
[21:35] <newbyx86> then get the 32-bit ubuntu, Juan)_
[21:35] <cl0s> real PCs.. not like everex
[21:35] <newbyx86> Juan_*
[21:35] <IndyGunFreak> Juan_: you need to download 32bit ubuntu ISO..(i386)
[21:35] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: come on ! it's a text file
[21:35] <Fryguy--> CostaRicanQuaker: gksu gedit /etc/fstab
[21:35] <vivaslb> Juan_: you have the wrong CD! you need the non-64 bit one
[21:35] <newbyx86> I did that too, but with Vista.
[21:35] <newbyx86> :P
[21:35] <newbyx86> *ducks*
[21:35] <Juan_> can you give me a link on which one i have to get
[21:35] <angasule> _2: does it matter that none of the kernels in that pc can boot? or the initramfs is not specific to one?
[21:35] <ikonia> Darknezz: you need to edit the display settings and the monitor settins in the xorg.conf file to be specific to your card and monitor
[21:35] <IndyGunFreak> Juan_: go to ubuntu.com and download the normal desktop iso
[21:35] <vivaslb> Juan_: you want ubuntu?
[21:36] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: ok it[s open now what do i do?
[21:36] <Fryguy--> Juan_: i386, all of the default radio buttons on the getubuntu page
[21:36] <vivaslb> Juan_: latest
[21:36] <Juan_> can i have the link
[21:36] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: put in the details of your ntfs disk
[21:36] <gorgg> i have got a format i do not recognise. *.uif -when i search google it says its a deamon tool thing, which i have used earlier, but is there any way for me now with ubuntu to convert to mp3 or similar easily?
[21:36] <Juan_> please
[21:36] <vivaslb> Juan_: can you be less lazy
[21:36] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: i dont understand
[21:36] <Juan_> look im a noob
[21:36] <_2> angasule each kernel has it's own initramfs.img    but note that kernel blah and kernel blah safe recovery mode are the same kernel.
[21:36] <Fryguy--> Juan_: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu
[21:36] <Juan_> alright im at ubuntu .com
[21:36] <Juan_> k
[21:37] <Juan_> then i click download now
[21:37] <Juan_> right?
[21:37] <Fryguy--> Juan_: yes
[21:37] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: `what part is not clear  - you can see what's in that file and how it relates to a disk - add an entry for your ntfs disk
[21:37] <angasule> _2: ok, but I tried with different kernels (and one of the recovery modes, the recovery mode worked fine)
[21:37] <Juan_> then which release do i pick?
[21:37] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: but what do i add?
[21:37] <newbyx86> screen -r
[21:37] <newbyx86> wrong window, dammit
[21:37] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: the details for your ntfs drive
[21:37] <Juan_> nvm
[21:37] <_2> angasule ok.  then make sure it's the correct address.
[21:37] <angasule> _2: it's dapper, so as you can imagine it has a ton of available kernels installed
[21:37] <IndyGunFreak> Juan_: which release?.. it should only be 8.04
[21:37] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: the detail sI've given you
[21:37] <Juan_> i picked desktop then i click standard personal computer right?
[21:37] <angasule> _2: the correct address? what do you mean?
[21:37] <Darknezz> ikonia: i did already (when i restarted a window popped up and i changed all the settings)
[21:37] <Fryguy--> Juan_: I might reconsider my choice of operating system if you consider tasks such as downloading files to be difficult.  Using a new operating system requires some level of ability to read documentation and be willing to actually learn new things, not just get handheld through the entire process.
[21:38] <ikonia> Darknezz: what did you change in the xorg.conf ?
[21:38] <chasmarang> amendo: do you mean like home/.Trash
[21:38] <Juan_> ive tried ubuntu before
[21:38] <kornal> Question: Pcman has some how took over the menu bar "Places" "Folder" How can I get the menu bar back to using Nautilus as default?
[21:38] <Juan_> ive gotten to know it good
[21:38] <Fryguy--> Juan_: and yet you can't download an iso? hrmm...
[21:38] <Juan_> its just i dont want to click something wrong
[21:38] <Darknezz> ikonia: well i changed it then now when i check it it seems to all be there. AKA card and monitor i own
[21:38] <Chaotic_Descent_> what's WinXP's ipconfig equivalent in Ubuntu?
[21:38] <Fryguy--> Chaotic_Descent_: ifconfig
[21:38] <Starnestommy> Chaotic_Descent_: ifconfig
[21:39] <ikonia> Darknezz: what did you change in it
[21:39] <_2> angasule if you have changed bios to boot from a different drive the address is affected in grub but not in the initramfs.img nor the running linux     so make sure that it's trying to mount the correct disk.
[21:39] <Bl4ckcomb> (how) can you do auto-perform with ssh? (e.g. automatically enter password with a sh/bash script)
[21:39] <Chaotic_Descent_> Thanks.
[21:39] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: listen, here/s the contents of that file, http://paste.ubuntu.com/25781/  what do i have to edit?
[21:39] <Jokimoto> \o/ success!
[21:39] <Fryguy--> Bl4ckcomb: use public/private keys instead
[21:39] <Juan_> alright give me a minute
[21:39] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: - no you listen, I've given you the information, I've spent a silly ammount of time explaining things to you and your not listening
[21:39] <angasule> _2: it is, I have not changed the bios or anything, and I mounted /dev/hda2 successfully (and went inside to check it was indeed the / partition, it is)
[21:39] <shader> hello, would someone mind helping me with some networking problems? ubuntu server edition, 8.04.1
[21:39] <Fryguy--> !ask | shader
[21:40] <_2> angasule i run dapper.   if you want me to take a look at your boot/grub/device* and boot/grub/menu.lst   i might notice if there is an obvious problem   if you pastebin them put the output of   fdsik -l with them
[21:40] <Darknezz> ikonia: i dont know the name of it but when i enabled the nvidia thing in hardware drivers and restarted it popped up befor it loaded the desktop
[21:40] <angasule> _2: ok, I'll boot into a live cd and get those for you, gimme a couple of minutes, thanks
[21:40] <ikonia> Darknezz: you don't know what you changed in the xorg.conf file ?
[21:41] <_2>      nobody knows what might cause this ?   http://ubuntu.pastebin.us/?show=d66715322
[21:42] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: don't waste your patience on easiness, believe me this is harder for me than it is for you i've been trying ubuntu for 3 days now, what do i have to alter in that file?
[21:42] <shader> ok, I can't seem to connect to the lan, using either dhcp or static ip. The nic works fine, it's recognized and the correct driver module is loaded. However, I can't ping the router, or any other box on the network. it usually responds with "Destination Host Unreachable"
[21:42] <ikonia> _2: what distro are you using
[21:42] <VelcroMan> I'm having problems with Skype. I have googled and it seems like something with ALSA use to mess stuff up :P But, i get "Problem with audio capture". It works anywhere else. Mic test works. So it seems to be only skype
[21:42] <linduxed> ikonia: i just booted a live-cd, chrooted to the system and ran lilo -c......and now im in my system
[21:42] <_2> ikonia dapper
[21:42] <Storrgie> is there a guide to setting up evolution with google calendar
[21:42]  * m_newton is back (gone 00:15:37)
[21:42] <ikonia> _2: basiclly that package's dependencies don't exist
[21:42] <ikonia> !away | MostroMarino
[21:42] <ikonia> oops
[21:43] <_2> ikonia i translated "distro >> release"
[21:43] <ikonia> !awa | m_newton
[21:43] <Fryguy--> Storrgie: irc.gnome.org #evolution
[21:43] <ikonia> _2: thats right
[21:43] <Fryguy--> shader: does dhclient eth0 work
[21:43] <ikonia> !away | m_newton
[21:43] <Darknezz> ikonia: i did not manually change anything in the config file but when i specified the file it changed it automatically
[21:43] <Dr_willis> CostaRicanQuaker,  example entry from my fstab file for my NTFS drive. You WILL need to make changes  but this is close ->   /dev/sda1 /media/VistaBoot ntfs-3g rw,uid=1000,fmask=0077,dmask=0022 0 0
[21:43] <_2> ikonia then its a bug ?
[21:43] <ikonia> Darknezz: when you specified the file ?
[21:43] <VelcroMan> No, mic test does not work :/ But i can hear myself speak in the speakers :/
[21:43] <daemon3> Does opera support XMLHTTPRequest?
[21:43] <ikonia> _2: no - that package doesn't exist in dapper
[21:43] <Fryguy--> daemon3: yes
[21:43] <_2> ikonia then its a bug ?
[21:43] <ikonia> _2: why is it a bug  ?
[21:43] <Fryguy--> daemon3: well, maybe not that specific object, but it supports AN object for doing asynchronous http requests
[21:44] <Fryguy--> daemon3: #opera
[21:44] <_2> ikonia i mean it's listed in the package list   and doesn't exist means bug   no ?
[21:44] <CostaRicanQuaker> Fryguy--: ok this is your line, /dev/sda1 /media/VistaBoot ntfs-3g rw,uid=1000,fmask=0077,dmask=0022 0 0 what command do i have to enter on the terminal to know what differs from your lineand mine to jsut copy it at the very end of my fstab file?
[21:44] <Darknezz> ikonia: sorry the drivers and the monitor it updated the file automatically
[21:44] <ikonia> _2: not nessary, the package exists, it may have retired dependencies, by all means log a bug report
[21:44] <Fryguy--> CostaRicanQuaker: what?
[21:44] <Fryguy--> CostaRicanQuaker: that's not my line, what are you talking about
[21:44] <daemon3> Fryguy--: yeah, Opera's being a little quiet today.
[21:44] <spader3d> hi all
[21:45] <Dr_willis> Fryguy--,  OI just gave him the line as an example. from my fstab
[21:45] <kornal> Question: Pcman has some how took over the menu bar "Places" "Folder" How can I get the menu bar back to using Nautilus as default?
[21:45] <spader3d> is there a firewall i have to manage in kubuntu?
[21:45] <Fryguy--> daemon3: first google result looks handy: http://www.opera.com/docs/specs/opera9/xhr/
[21:45] <Fryguy--> Dr_willis: yes
[21:45] <ikonia> spader3d: iptables is installed but not enabled by default
[21:45] <Fryguy--> spader3d: iptables is enabled by default
[21:45] <CostaRicanQuaker> right, Dr_Willis: rather
[21:45] <Fryguy--> ikonia: it's enabled
[21:45] <Pupeno> What's the package for the Keyboard Layout configuration tool?
[21:45] <ikonia> Fryguy--: is it ?
[21:45] <CostaRicanQuaker> what command do i type to know what i have to alter
[21:45] <Storrgie> Fryguy--: noone is in that channel
[21:45] <shader> Fryguy--: no, it tries, but then fails. Actually, I have an idea. How do you set the netmask for dhclient?
[21:45] <Fryguy--> ikonia: yes
[21:45] <CostaRicanQuaker> what differs from your line and mine
[21:45] <ikonia> Fryguy--: with what rules ?
[21:45] <spader3d> i installed mythtv but can not get to the mysql database
[21:45] <Fryguy--> Storrgie: well this isn't an evolution support channel
[21:46] <Dr_willis> CostaRicanQuaker,  basically the /dev/### will differ. depening on where your ntfs is at.
[21:46] <ikonia> Fryguy--: he won't be able to use ntfs-3g due to him still running the dapper kernel
[21:46] <_2> ikonia yes iptables is enabled by default   and the rules are accept all
[21:46] <Fryguy--> shader: dhcp handles netmask for you
[21:46] <ikonia> _2: ok - so there is no firewall enabled
[21:46] <CostaRicanQuaker> Dr_Willis: how do i check where my ntsf is at?
[21:46] <Fryguy--> ikonia: k? why are you telling me
[21:46] <lapteck> hey how do i get system information
[21:46] <ikonia> Fryguy--: I thought you where discussing it with CostaRicanQuaker
[21:46] <Fryguy--> ikonia: no
[21:46] <ikonia> Fryguy--: then ignore it
[21:46]  * CostaRicanQuaker shakes head
[21:46] <Fryguy--> ikonia: k
[21:46] <shader> Fryguy--: and if it uses the wrong one?
[21:47] <x3> well guys that deb pidgin pack sorted all my problems with that
[21:47] <Fryguy--> shader: then your dhcp server is misconfigured
[21:47] <x3> now for all the others
[21:47] <_2> well   technecaly there is ikonia,  it's just set to recieve everything   thus same as no firewall     but the firewall is built into the kernel.
[21:47] <shader> Fryguy--: ?
[21:47] <daemon3> For some reason I can't use XMLHTTPRequest.
[21:47] <ikonia> _2: I'm aware of what iptables is and how it works
[21:47] <CostaRicanQuaker> Dr?Willis: how do i check where my ntsf is at?
[21:47] <Darknezz> ikonia: i uploaded the file if you want to take a look at it. http://www.mediafire.com/?ngx5jwjmb1z
[21:47] <Fryguy--> shader: try using static ips, edit /etc/network/interfaces , see the manpage for syntax details
[21:47] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: I've told you 5 times /dev/hda1
[21:48] <shader> Fryguy--: I have, they didn't seem to work any better
[21:48] <ikonia> Darknezz: not really, I'm trying to understand why your having issues with that driver and card
[21:48] <lapteck> how do i get system information
[21:48] <matthew__> hey, rsnapshot is giving my this error:  snapshot_root exists but is not readable, anyone know what could be happening?
[21:48] <Fryguy--> shader: then you aren't configuring your network correctly
[21:48] <angasule> _2: small problem, I'm using an ubuntu 7.10 live CD and it doesn't include an IRC client, I looked at the devices.map and it has: (hd0)   /dev/hda
[21:48] <shader> Fryguy--: maybe I made a mistake, but I still couldn't ping the router.
[21:48] <H__> Question : how do I find out which module this belongs to ? FileSel.c:47:29: error: X11/Xaw/SimpleP.h: No such file or directory
[21:48] <Fryguy--> matthew__: permissions on the directory
[21:48] <CostaRicanQuaker> ok so it will be add /dev/hda1 /media/VistaBoot ntfs-3g rw,uid=1000,fmask=0077,dmask=0022 0 0 t the end of my fstab file?
[21:48] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia:?
[21:48] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: nope
[21:48] <_2> angasule yeah i think irssi is installed on it.
[21:48] <Fryguy--> shader: you won't be able to ping the router unless it's in your subnet or you have a default route set up
[21:48] <angasule> _2: and /dev/hda2 is identified as hd(0,1) in menu.lst, and fdisk -l /dev/hda sees /dev/hda2 perfectly
[21:48] <|MostroMarino|> Saluti
[21:49] <macrobad> lapteck: lshw or dmidecode
[21:49] <lapteck> !system information
[21:49] <ikonia> CostaRicanQuaker: that is someone elses line and has no use to you
[21:49] <shader> Fryguy--: ok, then what are the options, i.e. places I could have misconfigured it? and how do I figure out which one I got wrong?
[21:49] <angasule> _2: ah, lemme check
[21:49] <eitreach> gedit crashes as root when I try to open and save files. Segfault. What do I do to fix it?
[21:49] <Fryguy--> angasule: xchat should be on the livecd, or just install irssi or something quickly
[21:49] <Darknezz> ikonia: o ok. i will look around and try and find it online. but thanks for the help :)
[21:49] <Jokimoto> !slap ubottu
[21:49] <CostaRicanQuaker> then what is my line? i changed the differing element to dev/hda1
[21:49] <shader> Fryguy--: I tried setting a default route, but that didn't seem to change anything. Unless I set up the default route wrong
[21:49] <tommy> hello :P
[21:49] <Fryguy--> shader: what is your gateway and what is the netmask you are using to define you pool of IPs, and what part of that pool is dhcp responsible for
[21:49] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia:?
[21:49] <lapteck> someone tell me how to get system information please
[21:49] <Fryguy--> lapteck: what information do you want
[21:50] <ikonia> lapteck: what sort of info
[21:50] <tommy> wtf?
[21:50] <lapteck> like the computers
[21:50] <ikonia> !wtf | tommy
[21:50] <ikonia> lapteck: what sort of info
[21:50] <angasule> Fryguy--: there is no IRC client that I can see, I don't know why x-chat isn't included...
[21:50] <lapteck> system specs
[21:50] <tommy> -_-
[21:50] <Fryguy--> lapteck: which specs
[21:50] <ikonia> lapteck: anything specific
[21:50] <ikonia> tommy: what ?
[21:50] <ikonia> !topic | tommy
[21:50] <lapteck> i was just trying to get all..
[21:50] <lapteck> like at once if there is that option
[21:50] <ikonia> lapteck: lshw will give you an overview
[21:50] <shader> Fryguy--: gateway: 192.168.1.1 netmask: 255.255.255.0 dhcp subsection: 192.168.1.100-255
[21:50] <macrobad> lapteck: lshw or dmidecode for detailed info
[21:50] <Fryguy--> lapteck: cat /proc/cpuinfo for cpu information, lspci, lsusb, lshw, free should give you what you need
[21:50] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: what is my line then? i did alter his line to my ntsf location you said hda1 so i edited that
[21:51] <_2> lapteck /proc/slabinfo  has some system specs
[21:51] <matthew__> Fryguy--: how can I have sudo run a command that has spaces in it? It just gives me "command not found"
[21:51] <Fryguy--> shader: ok, and you have defined you ip and netmask as what for your surrent machine
[21:51] <ikonia> matthew__: such as what command ?
[21:51] <Fryguy--> matthew__: what command
[21:51] <matthew__> Fryguy--: oops, I had quotes around it by mistake, removing them seemed to fix it
[21:51] <_2> matthew__ if the command name has spaces in it    quote it.
[21:51] <Fryguy--> matthew__: short answer, use quotes or escape the spaces with \
[21:52] <lapteck> thanks guys
[21:52] <CostaRicanQuaker> ikonia: what is my line then? i did alter his line to my ntsf location you said hda1 so i edited that
[21:52] <_2> none of the common linux command have spaces
[21:52] <nikonadictk> hey how do I configure users on my ubuntu PPTPD server... I cant login from my macbook (set to PPTP) because my username or password is invalid
[21:52] <Yud_Zroc> hello dear children
[21:52] <ikonia> _2: yes, hence why I was curious
[21:52] <shader> Fryguy--: well, I had set the ip to be 192.168.1.107 when I was trying static, and the netmask was also 255.255.255.0. would putting the ip in the same range as dhcp cause problems?
[21:52] <Fryguy--> shader: yes
[21:52] <AU-120> hello all
[21:52] <Fryguy--> shader: sometimes
[21:52] <anga> _2: I'm angasule
[21:53] <Fryguy--> shader: what did you set as a gateway
[21:53] <_2> anga
[21:53] <_2> ikonia indeed
[21:53] <shader> Fryguy--: ok, I'll try changing that. I'll be back in a bit.
[21:53] <H__> Question : if you miss a header file (like X11/Xaw/SimpleP.h) how do you find out which deb module this belongs to ?
[21:53] <AU-120> heyy yud
[21:53] <ikonia> H__: apt-file ?
[21:54] <Fryguy--> H__: it's x11-dev, or xorg-dev
[21:54] <ikonia> H__: there is also a dpkg option
[21:54] <takamarou> Hi, I'm having some trouble with my nvidia drivers.  I got them running (after a lot of work) fine, but I just restarted and now I'm back in low graphics mode.  Any help?
[21:54] <H__> ok, i'm new to deb packages. have a hint ?
[21:54] <macrobad> H__: 'dpkg-query -S SimpleP.h' or 'locate SimpleP.h'
[21:54] <DavidVWallin> anyone know how i change the hardy-version into a testing-version please?
[21:54] <ikonia> H__: apt-gile
[21:54] <ikonia> H__: apt-file
[21:54] <temoto-mobi> Is it possible to set SuperL+left/right for virtual desktops switch in Gnome?
[21:54] <ikonia> DavidVWallin: if you have to ask - you shouldn't be doing it at this stage
[21:55] <Fryguy--> temoto-mobi: that's a function of the window manager you are using, not gnome
[21:55] <ikonia> DavidVWallin: for your own protection
[21:55] <Fryguy--> temoto-mobi: if you are using compiz, looking compizconfig-settings-manager
[21:55] <Reformer81> I would like to install a game with Wine, but want it available to all users.  How would I do this?
[21:55] <DavidVWallin> ikonia, mind just telling me how? i've been a slackware user since '97 but i'm a bit confused over the apt-get system
[21:55] <temoto-mobi> Fryguy--, what window manager am i using if compiz beauty features turned off?
[21:55] <ikonia> !testing | DavidVWallin
[21:55] <H__> ikonia i'll look into apt-file
[21:55] <Fryguy--> temoto-mobi: metacity
[21:55] <tim__b> anyone else in here experiancing problems with ttcut + ubuntu hardy? current-frame preview shows only upper third of the current frame.
[21:55] <VelcroMan> http://rafb.net/p/ACeuHf27.html <- I added some prints to know where the error was. I print 123123123. So the for loop is never runned. Any idea why no?
[21:55] <spader3d> what can i do to repair a machine that always start to the X-windows instead of the KDE-window?
[21:56] <ikonia> DavidVWallin: basiclly change your software sources, or use update-manager
[21:56] <CostaRicanQuaker> Fryguy--: can you help me?
[21:56] <DavidVWallin> !testing
[21:56] <Fryguy--> spader3d: X windows and KDE windows are 2 separate layers of things, what exactly are you trying to do
[21:56] <Fryguy--> CostaRicanQuaker: no
[21:56] <amainland> hi, using kde, what is the command to change keyboard shortcuts?
[21:56] <anga> _2: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25783/    and    http://paste.ubuntu.com/25784/
[21:56] <ikonia> !intrepid | DavidVWallin
[21:56] <temoto-mobi> Fryguy--, should i look for ~/.metacity for configs?
[21:56] <AU-120>  
[21:56] <Fryguy--> temoto-mobi: i guess
[21:56] <ikonia> DavidVWallin: pay close attention to the last line of ubottu's comments
[21:56] <temoto-mobi> Fryguy--, thanks a lot.
[21:56] <_2> anga looking
[21:56] <takamarou> Hi, I'm having some trouble with my nvidia drivers being recongnized after a reboot.  Anyone able to help?
[21:57] <Fryguy--> takamarou: "not being recognized"
[21:57] <Fryguy--> takamarou: what
[21:57] <DavidVWallin> ikonia, is there an easy way of getting a newer version of the kernel (newer than 2.6.24-19) from apt-get without using the testing-version then?
[21:57] <Fryguy--> DavidVWallin: no
[21:57] <VelcroMan> Sry, wrong channel :P
[21:57] <ikonia> DavidVWallin: not really
[21:57] <Fryguy--> !kernel | DavidVWallin
[21:57] <takamarou> Fryguy--, I had them working fine, and then I rebooted and I'm back in low graphics mode.
[21:57] <ikonia> DavidVWallin: why do you want a newer version ?
[21:57] <shader> Fryguy--: ok, I tried setting my ip to be 192.168.1.10, and I also tried setting the default gateway again, but it still didn't wok
[21:57] <_2> DavidVWallin i tried the other day to explain to you that this was not debian.  and "testing" is not a seperate release that keeps all the latest stuff....
[21:57] <Fryguy--> takamarou: what driver are you  using
[21:57] <Fryguy--> !work | shader
[21:57] <_2> ikonia see my post to david   ^
[21:58] <ikonia> _2: I did
[21:58] <takamarou> Fryguy--, the one off of the website.
[21:58] <temoto-mobi> For some reason gnome-do doesn't appear on Super+Space and M+Space too. On this notebook. On desktop works fine. What could be the reason?
[21:58] <ikonia> DavidVWallin: is there something specific you want in a newer kernel ?
[21:58] <DavidVWallin> _2, dont think that was me
[21:58] <Fryguy--> takamarou: any reason why you didn't use any of the methods built into ubuntu to get the driver installed?
[21:58] <shader> Fryguy--: ok, pinging 192.168.1.1 returns "destination host unreachable"
[21:58] <DavidVWallin> ikonia, get this wlan-card to work. ubuntu 8.04 complains about the wl -module
[21:58] <Fryguy--> shader: pastebin you ifconfig -a
[21:58] <ikonia> DavidVWallin: what makes you think it's fixed in a latter kernel, ubuntu is currently close to bleeding edge
[21:58] <takamarou> Fryguy--, they didn't work.  A lot of people have had the problem, and I followed a guide on the forums.
[21:59] <Fryguy--> takamarou: well apparently the ones you downloaded didn't work either
[21:59] <Fryguy--> takamarou: pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[21:59] <DavidVWallin> ikonia, heard it from a friend
[21:59] <takamarou> Fryguy--, They did.  They were running fine, up until I restarted
[21:59] <shader> Fryguy--: that would be tricky, I can't copy across computers. No network, remember? I suppose I could type it all in though ;)
[21:59] <takamarou> Fryguy--, OK, give me a second.
[21:59] <ikonia> DavidVWallin: I'd get more info than that, before messing around with things like that
[22:01] <takamarou> Fryguy--, http://paste.ubuntu.com/25787/
[22:01] <H__> ikonia thanks, now i run into a missing library : undefined reference to `panedWidgetClass'. Is there a tool to find which one i'm missing too ?
[22:01] <Fryguy--> takamarou: what resolution do you want
[22:01] <anga> _2: found anything wrong?
[22:01] <ikonia> H__: thats going to be the xorg-devel package
[22:02] <ikonia> H__: what are you trying to compile ?
[22:02] <takamarou> Fryguy--, as large as I can :)  1280x1024 is usually what I do.
[22:02] <Fryguy--> takamarou: 3 lines up from the bottom, where it says "depth", in between that and endsubsection, add a line that says Modes "1280x1024"  and restart X, see what happens
[22:02] <H__> ikonia : vice, i'm debugging an issue
[22:02] <Fryguy--> takamarou: if you still get an error, pastebin, /var/log/Xorg.log
[22:02] <CrocoJet> Hi all, is possible with aptitude ou apt-cache to list all packages of one repository ?
[22:03] <takamarou> Fryguy--, It's isn't even finding the drivers.. that's why I'm in low graphics mode.  You sure that would help?
[22:03] <Fryguy--> takamarou: no i'm not, which is why i told you to do the second part if option 1 doesn't work
[22:03] <temoto-mobi> There is no metacity channel :(
[22:03] <Craigen> heya, i'm trying to change the main-menu buttom to a nice one that i find on Gnome-look, but when i edit in the gconf-editor nothing happens (apps->panel->objects ect.) Can the picture only be x pixel big or?
[22:03] <takamarou> fryguy--, ok, hold on.
[22:03] <temoto-mobi> there are no configs in .metacity. only sessions
[22:03] <H__> ikonia : thanks for the xorg-devel package hint, but how can i find out such things myself ? (for the next missing library ;-)
[22:03] <ikonia> H__: apt-file
[22:04] <H__> ikonia : also works for functions inside libraries ? impressive tool
[22:05] <H__> apt-file find panedWidgetClass gives no result though
[22:05] <ikonia> H__: can do, in that senario, check the config.log to see the test, you'll see what library it's testing for then search on that
[22:05] <Fryguy--> H__: http://www.google.com/search?q=undefined+reference+to+%60panedWidgetClass%27&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a
[22:05] <takamarou> Fryguy--, my xorg.log appears to be empty.
[22:06] <Fryguy--> takamarou: Xorg.log
[22:06] <bouba> hi
[22:06] <takamarou> yeah.
[22:06] <takamarou> I tried both.
[22:06] <_2> anga still here ?
[22:06] <Fryguy--> takamarou: look in /var/log/, i might have th ename wrong
[22:06] <anga> _2: yes
[22:06] <Fryguy--> H__: looks like you need libXaw-dev
[22:06] <_2> anga where's your device.map ?
[22:06] <takamarou> Fryguy--, this is what I put in: gedit /var/log/Xorg.log
[22:06] <Fryguy--> takamarou: well look in /var/log itself
[22:06] <anga> _2: it was the in the first pastebin link
[22:06] <macrobad> temoto-mobi: have a look on gconf-editor, particularly apps/metacity
[22:06] <Fryguy--> takamarou: i probably have the name wrong
[22:07] <_2> anga ah yeah i overlooked it sorry.
[22:07] <Cobra_Girl> quick question since I'm new and haven't found the answer through a search
[22:07] <anga> _2: it says: (hd0)   /dev/hda
[22:07] <_2> anga and this is dapper right ?
[22:07] <anga> _2: yes
[22:07] <temoto-mobi> macrobad, thanks a lot.
[22:07] <H__> ikonia it's not configure/testing anymore, it's the final link stage where it bombs out
[22:08] <Cobra_Girl> can I enable my wireless connection to automatically connect on startup or do I have to manually set it every time I turn on or reset the computer?
[22:08] <ikonia> H__: ooh really, in that case back pedal the code
[22:08] <anga> _2: nothing was modified, no updates or anything, before it broke up
[22:08] <takamarou> Fryguy--, I have Xorg.0.log, Xorg.20.log, and Xorg.21.log
[22:08] <_2> anga hmmm      sudo umount /dev/hda2 ; sudo e2fsck -p /dev/hda2
[22:08] <Fryguy--> takamarou: .0.log
[22:08] <H__> Fryguy-- thanks, is there a non-google-method, like apt-file for this sort of stuff ?
[22:08] <Fryguy--> H__: no idea
[22:09] <Storrgie> bobertdos: you still here?
[22:09] <takamarou> Fryguy--, http://paste.ubuntu.com/25793/
[22:09] <anga> _2: it's clean, I did a check earlier
[22:10] <_2> anga  a forced check ?
[22:10] <anga> _2: I also checked now, of course
[22:10] <_2> k
[22:10] <H__> Fryguy-- turns out that libxaw and -headers and -dev are already installed ?!
[22:10] <_2> anga  pastebin the fstab for that system and    ls boot/
[22:10] <Fryguy--> takamarou: ok you are right, the nvidia module isn't loading. you'll have to consult the directions you followed to load the module again.  since you installed it in a non-ubuntu way, i have no idea how to help you any more
[22:10] <bobertdos> ﻿Storrgie: Yes sir
[22:11] <Fryguy--> H__: ok
[22:11] <takamarou> Fryguy--, ok, thanks for the help.
[22:11] <Ericthegreat> how long should it take to compile gnash?
[22:11] <Storrgie> were you the guy who just helped me get DVD playback working?
[22:11] <Fryguy--> Ericthegreat: depends on processing power available
[22:11] <Ericthegreat> ps3 so i think not much
[22:11] <Ericthegreat> been like 2 hr tho is that ok?
[22:12] <Fryguy--> Ericthegreat: probably not. any reason why you are compiling it instead of using the one in the repos
[22:12] <Cobra_Girl> Eric, PS3 in OtherOS is slower, so just leave it be for now
[22:12] <_2> Ericthegreat you can use top to see if it's busy or idle
[22:12] <anga> _2: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25795/  and  http://paste.ubuntu.com/25796/
[22:12] <shader> Fryguy--: here's the ifconfig -a pastebin: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25797/
[22:12] <Blaenk> !java
[22:13] <Ericthegreat> hmm k idk how to do that but it just moved a bit after like 10 min...
[22:13] <shader> Fryguy--: sorry it took so long, I had to type it in :)
[22:13] <Mrevox11> Hey everyone. I was able to get my wifi working after a few hours of doing research and I was able to finally install the mp3 codec by adding some multiverses and etc. Now I have another problem. I have compiz fuzion installed and I am able to select options and effects but none of them work. Any help on getting them to work. Im wanting effects like fire and water. Some one please help.
[22:13] <Fryguy--> shader: and you can't ping 192.168.1.1 with that?
[22:13] <Scunizi> !ccsm | Mrevox11
[22:13] <KenBW2> i installed a web server to my computer to view PHP files locally. I now want to be able to view them from a networked laptop. How can I do this?
[22:14] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: glxinfo | grep -i direct
[22:14] <shader> Fryguy--: nope.
[22:14] <Mrevox11> Its already installed.
[22:14] <Ericthegreat> i would recommend you just install vlc media player
[22:14] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: and look in /etc/X11/xorg.conf to make sure that composite is enabled
[22:14] <_2> anga i would modify the root line in fstab only usable option there is "defaults"
[22:14] <shader> Fryguy--: anything else at all that could be wrong?
[22:14] <Fryguy--> shader: no idea
[22:14] <_2> try that anga see if it helps.
[22:14] <Cobra_Girl> so no ideas on having to reset password for wifi every time I turn the computer on?
[22:14] <Mrevox11> it says direct rendering : Yes
[22:14] <Fryguy--> shader: stupid question, but is ethernet plugged in
[22:14] <shader> Fryguy--: my default route?
[22:14] <WebcamWonder> Does anyone know if Ubuntu supports WPA2 out of the box?
[22:14] <Scunizi> Mrevox11: you have to enable fire and water for the "tasks" that you want it to apply to .. I suggest asking the folks in #ubuntu-effects
[22:14] <_2> anga or comment out the root lie in fstab     that's a good test.
[22:14] <Fryguy--> shader: your route doesn't matter, you aren't leaving the subnet
[22:14] <ikonia> WebcamWonder: depends on your card
[22:15] <anga> _2: ok, thanks, I'll try both of them, rebooting
[22:15] <IndyGunFreak> WebcamWonder: it works fine w/ my atheros and madwifi, but as said, really depends on the card
[22:15] <_2>       FYI  an fstab entry is not needed for the root fs.
[22:15] <WebcamWonder> ikonia: If the hardware supports, it will support it as well right?
[22:15] <anga> _2: didn't know that, thanks
[22:15] <shader> Fryguy--: well, the lights at both ends of the cable are on, so I would presume so
[22:15] <ikonia> WebcamWonder: no, it depends on the hardware and the linux driver available for that hardware
[22:15] <Mrevox11> Fryguy: Direct Rendering : Yes
[22:16] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: i heard you the first time.  I had asked you to do 2 things however
[22:16] <beautifulsnow> Ok ive had hardy heron since it came out, but *now* none of my media players feel like playing anything. What gives?  It goes to play, then doesnt  play. no error msg....
[22:16] <IndyGunFreak> WebcamWonder: what is your wireless device
[22:16] <_2> anga it "may" be used by something like "update-grub" so i would have one.  but it's not needed to starty a system.
[22:16] <macrobad> shader: a firewall is blocking ping?
[22:16] <Mrevox11> what were they?
[22:16] <WebcamWonder> ikonia: OK, cause I have a rather old card and I was trying to connect it to WPA2 earlier and it just couldn't
[22:16] <shader> macrobad: I don't think so. all of my other computers can ping
[22:16] <WebcamWonder> ikonia: It is a D-Link Airplus... if I remember correctly...
[22:16] <_2> starty  heh
[22:16] <WebcamWonder> IndyGunFreak: It is a D-Link Airplus... if I remember correctly...
[22:17] <putterson> is there a way to keep a window from stealing focus when I drag and drop something from it...say a tab in firefox to my instant messenger window?
[22:17] <KenBW2> i installed a web server to my computer to view PHP files locally. I now want to be able to view them from a networked laptop. How can I do this?
[22:17] <Fryguy--> putterson: you can try a different window manager, lots of window managers have lots of different settings for things like that
[22:17] <shader> macrobad: however, ping is not my goal. ping returns "destination host unreachable." does that imply firewall?
[22:17] <Fryguy--> shader: no
[22:17] <__yy> KenBW2: point the web browser on your laptop at the computer with the web server.
[22:18] <jbroome> KenBW2: from the same lan?  enter the IP address of the machine running the web server.
[22:18] <putterson> Fryguy--, can I configure metacity to have this functionality?
[22:18] <_2> xfwm putterson
[22:18] <Fryguy--> shader: if you were playing around with your default route it could mess things up, just remove all routes
[22:18] <IndyGunFreak> WebcamWonder: still need more specific info about the device, like model #
[22:18] <Fryguy--> putterson: no idea
[22:18] <shader> Fryguy--: then what?
[22:18] <putterson> Fryguy--, if I wanted to find out where would I start?
[22:18] <Fryguy--> shader: try again
[22:18] <IndyGunFreak> WebcamWonder: but if its as old as you say it is, does it support WPA under windows?
[22:18] <shader> Fryguy--: ok
[22:18] <Mrevox11> Ok Fryguy. In the .conf file there is nothing that says composite in it.
[22:18] <Fryguy--> putterson: google for metacity configuration syntax
[22:18] <WebcamWonder> IndyGunFreak: Don't have it now, cause I don't have it installed nor handy, will get back as soon as possible... Ubuntu did give me an option of WPA
[22:18] <Chaotic_Descent> when someone told me to use dhp something to refresh my IP settings or something so I could connect to my router, why did it permanently screw up my internet connection, requiring me to restart the computer to get it to work again?
[22:18] <putterson> Fryguy--, thanks
[22:18] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: you need to add that for compiz to work right
[22:18] <Mrevox11> ok.
[22:19] <WebcamWonder> IndyGunFreak: So, I guess I can configure my router to go back to WPA
[22:19] <KenBW2> jbroome: You mean the same as how i would on the PC but replacing the 127.0.0.1 with the PC's IP address?
[22:19] <Mrevox11> can you point me to a tut or just tell me what line of text to add?
[22:19] <IndyGunFreak> WebcamWonder: thats an option of course... but if WPA works, i would think WPA2 would..
[22:19] <_2> short of "hal" how can one monitor the usb bus ?
[22:19] <Scunizi> Fryguy--: remember xorg doesn't control video on a lot of machines anymore.. it's all xrandr. so there's a huge difference between xorg on an upgraded machine and a fresh install.
[22:19] <__yy> Chaotic_Descent: maybe you did it wrong? Maybe they were lying to you and really wanted you to mess up your machine. Maybe it was a freak occurance... no way to know tbh.
[22:19] <idx> So I'm not using Ubuntu anymore. It worked fine until about two months ago, possibly after an update, after which it failed to recognise my Buffalo Wireless-G USB Adapter which had been working perfectly beforehand. Ideas?
[22:19] <macrobad> shader: you may also wish to try running 'sudo tcpdump -i eth0' in order to verify that you're getting and sending something
[22:20] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: very bottom of xorg.conf   Section "Extensions"  Option "Composite" "Enable"  EndSection
[22:20] <Fryguy--> Scunizi: xrandr is a library for xorg
[22:20] <jbroome> KenBW2: yes
[22:20] <KenBW2> k, thanks
[22:21] <Chaotic_Descent> __yy: so how do I get my internet to work without having to restart my computer?
[22:21] <Fryguy--> shader: try replacing cable as well. I wonder if you have a bad cable
[22:21] <macrobad> shader: sorry, it looks that you've received and sent quite a lot of packets on that interface since last reboot, so it shouldn't be the case, unless it has just stopped working.
[22:21] <Fryguy--> Chaotic_Descent: what?
[22:21] <Fryguy--> Chaotic_Descent: ifdown eth0 and ifup eth0
[22:22] <Chaotic_Descent> Fryguy--: what?
[22:22] <idx> So I'm not using Ubuntu anymore. It worked fine until about two months ago, possibly after an update, after which it failed to recognise my Buffalo Wireless-G USB Adapter which had been working perfectly beforehand. Ideas, please?
[22:22] <Fryguy--> Chaotic_Descent: ifup eth0 and ifdown eth0
[22:22] <Fryguy--> idx: if you aren't using ubuntu, then why are you asking in here? i'm confused
[22:22] <idx> Fryguy--: I want to use it again.
[22:22] <_2> what is going on here....  if i try to install nvidia-glx-legacy it wants to install an i386 kernel   ???
[22:23] <beautifulsnow> Becacuse hes asking for help on how to amke it work, Fryguy--  ?
[22:23] <idx> But I can't, since I cannot access the internet within it
[22:23] <Chaotic_Descent> Fryguy--: what does that mean?
[22:23] <Fryguy--> _2: binary drivers require to be matched up with the kernel they were built for
[22:23] <Fryguy--> Chaotic_Descent: run those commands
[22:23] <hamburglar> hey Fryguy--
[22:23] <Mrevox11> Fryguy: Please take a look at the tail end of my xorg.conf and tell me if this is correct before I save it     http://paste.ubuntu.com/25798/
[22:23] <Chaotic_Descent> ifup: failed to open statefile /var/run/network/ifstate: Permission denied
[22:23] <Blaenk> hey how do I check if a package is installed using aptitude?
[22:23] <beautifulsnow> idx did you file a bug report when that updated messed up your wireless ?
[22:23] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: looks fine
[22:23] <__yy> Chaotic_Descent: you need to sudo both those commands
[22:24] <jedimind> is there a built-in cvs client in ubuntu? if so - how do i use it
[22:24] <idx> beautifulsnow: Sadly, no
[22:24] <Chaotic_Descent> oh. they're separate commands.
[22:24] <Fryguy--> jedimind: sudo apt-get install cvs probably
[22:24] <alleand> hi everyone. i have a question on how to install the drivers for Geforce cards, when i open the restricted drivers manager it says that none are used on my system.
[22:24] <__yy> jedimind: sudo apt-get install cvs
[22:24] <Mrevox11> Now what do I do fry guy?
[22:24] <ikonia> alleand: click "enable"
[22:24] <idx> I thought it was an intermittant fault with the adapter. But it works fine in Windows
[22:24] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: restart X
[22:24] <_2> Fryguy-- so nvidia drivers require 386 and 686 wont work ?
[22:24] <jedimind> __yy: any idea on how i would just simply export a cvs module ?
[22:24] <Mrevox11> log out and log in?
[22:24] <Fryguy--> _2: some of them do, yes, you are installing a legacy driver it seems
[22:24] <jedimind> as in - i could use an example :)
[22:24] <alleand> ikonia: there are no options, the list is empty.
[22:25] <_2> Fryguy-- and sound requires 868 and 386 wont work...
[22:25] <ikonia> alleand: what card do you have
[22:25] <Fryguy--> alleand: you might have an nvidia card that doesn't use the restricted drivers then
[22:25] <alleand> ikonia: Geforce 9600GT
[22:25] <Fryguy--> _2: then you'll have to hand compile something
[22:25] <ikonia> alleand: ughhh brand new
[22:25] <Fryguy--> alleand: not supported with that restricted driver
[22:25] <__yy> jedimind: export a cvs module?
[22:25] <DIL> i have a computer with several drives attached that i want to share to home users how do i enable those drive to have shared status
[22:25] <Fryguy--> alleand: try envy, or install driver manually from nvidia
[22:25] <xif> Hi. What is .gvfs doing in my ~, and can I safely delete it?
[22:25] <jedimind> checkout a cvs module to a dir
[22:25] <_2> Fryguy-- yeah....   ;/
[22:25] <Fryguy--> xif: no you can't delete it
[22:25] <sandriman> macrobad: o/
[22:25] <bpa> hello all, I am having trouble configuring the permissions correctly to get a perl script to be able to do ifconfig commands.  I just installed the perl-suid package, and I have set the SUID for the perl script and for a copy if the 'ifconfig' program that I moved to /bin.  I am still getting errors like: SIOCSIFFLAGS: Permission denied SIOCSIFHWADDR: Operation not permitted SIOCSIFFLAGS: Permission denied. Does anyone know how to fix this?
[22:26] <xif> Fryguy--: OK, what is it if you may?
[22:26] <Fryguy--> xif: virtual filesystem stuff that gnome uses for mounts
[22:26] <__yy> jedimind: cvs checkout path_to_repo probably. Read the man page, it will tell you
[22:26] <xif> Fryguy--: I see, thanks.
[22:26] <alleand> fryguy-- : i did download the driver from nvidias site, but when i try running it in the terminal it says i cant open the file
[22:26] <Fryguy--> alleand: need some more details than that
[22:26] <idx> Any ideas regarding my Buffalo Wireless-G USB adapter not workin? I've searched the forum, there are posts but no answers.
[22:27] <obf213> how come ff3 on ubu is missing save tabs for next session on quit
[22:27] <_2> angasule  ?
[22:27] <alleand> fryguy-- : sh: Can't open nvidia-linux-x86_65-171.14.09-pkg2.run
[22:27] <ikonia> obf213: I get asked
[22:27] <JoelC1976> I have a question about 8.04 and problems changing resolution. Anyone have time?
[22:27] <Fryguy--> alleand: what are the permissions on the file
[22:27] <Fryguy--> !anyone | JoelC1976
[22:27] <angasule> _2: didn't work :( I'm rebooting again into the live cd
[22:27] <beautifulsnow> For my microphone to work (right now its just stactic) what do you guys think i should put on Sound Preferences? I got everything else to AutoDetect, but MICROPHONE does not have AUTODETECT as an option
[22:27] <obf213> ikonia: what? you asked that or you get asked that all the time
[22:28] <ikonia> obf213: I get asked to save tabs on exit
[22:28] <_2> angasule what is the exact error message    and it's context if you can
[22:28] <angasule> _2: I tried both commenting out and changing it to 'defaults', it still says "no such device" when trying to mount /dev/hda2
[22:28] <__yy> idx: just telling us it's not working really doesn't give enough information to help you. Does ifconfig ssay you have an IP? Does iwconfig show you connected to a network?
[22:28] <obf213> ikonia, really. i wonder why I don;t
[22:28] <angasule> _2: when it tried to mount root it says something like "trying to mount /dev/hda2 on /root: no such device"
[22:28] <_2> angasule that sounds like an initramfs issue.   do you get a busybox shell ?
[22:29] <idx> __yy: Obviously, I'm not in Ubuntu right now.
[22:29] <angasule> _2: yes, I get busybox, funnily enough the 'vi' command isn't there? :/
[22:29] <ReZBiT> try /dev/hda2 /
[22:29] <Mrevox11> Fryguy: I restarted X. It told me that ubuntu is running in lowgraphics mode. I configged everything properly back to its old settings and now its displaying everything in 800x600 and cant enable any advanced graphics settings.
[22:29] <idx> But I don't think the connection even exists
[22:29] <__yy> idx: yes, that makes it very hard to help you
[22:29] <JoelC1976> I have only 800x600 and 640x480 as choices for my display resolutions. When I was running 6.06 I had no issues with my display at all and was able to run much higher.
[22:29] <idx> The logs tell that it tries to set up eth0 but gets stuck somewhere
[22:29] <alleand> fryguy--: not sure, is the option "enable to run as program" supposed to be klicked?
[22:29] <_2> angasule vi ?  what would you edit ?
[22:29] <Resnick> Is there anyway to access the trash folder via commandline? I have searched for a .Trash folder but only root has one. I have a couple of files I want to get rid of with root permissions, but Ubuntu is a little different then what I am used to. Any help is appriciated.
[22:29] <Fryguy--> alexanderwz: yes
[22:29] <idx> No lights are on on the stick.
[22:29] <Fryguy--> alleand: yes
[22:30] <VoiSbLoNdE_> hi ppl
[22:30] <Fryguy--> alleand: use ls -l to see the permissions on the file
[22:30] <__yy> idx: ok, do you have the specific error
[22:30] <alleand> fryguy--: oki, ill try that
[22:30] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: looks like you have an fglrx that doesn't support compositing then
[22:30] <_2> angasule anyway when in the busybox shell try inserting these drivers      modprobe ide-disk ;modprobe ext3
[22:30] <idx> __yy: No, just that "no network connection is present"
[22:30] <angasule> _2: hmm, /etc/fstab after mounting manually?
[22:30] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: you'll have to check out the wiki for getting compiz working with it then, I don't have any more specific advice for you. sorry.
[22:30] <Mrevox11> ok well looks like Ill just have to live without compiz fuzion. Now. How do I go about reversing all of this?
[22:30] <idx> __yy: Or something. Two computers and a red cross where the wireless indicator should be.
[22:31] <_2> angasule you can't mount manually until it can be mounted and when it can then you can exit and init will finish booting.
[22:31] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: just remove/comment the 3 lines I told you to add and restart x
[22:31] <Ericthegreat> oh here something when i try and dual boot ubuntu on my pc i get no option for a guided install only use whole disk or manuel and idea hoow to fix that?
[22:31] <shader> Fryguy--:  I finally got it to delete all of the routes. ping still returns "destination host unreachables"
[22:31] <idx> __yy: Lights do appear when it boots. But Ubuntu rejects it before it comes up with the log in screen
[22:31] <linuxkrn> yo everyone, does anyone know how to get dmraid working on a intel moble sata raid 82801 controller?  dmraid reports no disks, but "dmraid -b" shows two drives (raid-0)
[22:31] <Fryguy--> Ericthegreat: use partitioning software to partition the disk before you install ubuntu then
[22:31] <_2> angasule seeing that you have a way to talk to me, while within the busybox shell boot to there and i'll walk you through getting your system running.
[22:32] <__yy> idx: I don't use gnome, so what the gui shows doesn't mean anything to me. Try starting ubuntu and doing 'ifconfig yournetworkdevice' to see if you have an IP, and then 'iwconfig yournetworkdevice' and check if essid is set to the name of your network device.
[22:32] <Ericthegreat> i c thats what i was told b4 gparted i think it was called
[22:32] <angasule> _2: ok, it'll be a bit slow, the two computers are in different rooms :)
[22:32] <Fryguy--> Ericthegreat: yes
[22:32] <__yy> idx: essid is set to the name of your wireless network, sorry, not device
[22:32] <Fryguy--> Ericthegreat: or partition magic, or whatever
[22:32] <Ericthegreat> k
[22:32] <Mrevox11> Well if it were only that easy fryguy. I just opened my xorg.conf and it doesnt look anything like it did before.
[22:32] <pen> is there an alternative to cheese (photobooth like app)
[22:32] <alleand> fryguy--: hmm...it looks like its working now, but it asks me to exit X server before im able to run the install. hos do i do that?
[22:32] <pen> ?
[22:32] <_2> angasule and when you have it up and running you can rebuild the initramfs.img so it will boot without the hassel.
[22:32] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: so look in /etc/X11/ and pull one of the backup files
[22:33] <_2> angasule ok,    just take note.  :)
[22:33] <pen> is there an alternative to cheese (photobooth like app)? because cheese is buggy and doesn't have much effects as other do
[22:33] <Fryguy--> pen: gimp
[22:33] <pen> Fryguy--, real time effects
[22:33] <pen> Fryguy--, gimp doesn't have that
[22:33] <Fryguy--> pen: sorry misread
[22:33] <jbroome> Fryguy--: do you know what photobooth does?  'cause gimp isn't it
[22:33] <Fryguy--> jbroome: i misread
[22:33] <VoiSbLoNdE_> how can i reset the ALSA config?is there some string that can i use?
[22:33] <jm2k> hi
[22:33] <Flannel> pen: Theres plenty of webcam apps that take pictures/video
[22:33] <powertool08> What are some options for encryption for an already populated drive?
[22:34] <Fryguy--> powertool08: truecrypt
[22:34] <linuxkrn> yo everyone, does anyone know how to get dmraid working on a intel moble sata raid 82801 controller?  dmraid reports no disks, but "dmraid -b" shows two drives (raid-0)
[22:34] <pen> I personally like the youcam from HP, but I can't find the equivalent app in ubuntu
[22:34] <JoelC1976> I loaded 8.04 and am unable to select any resolutions other than 800x600 and 640x480. Worked fine under 6.06.
[22:34] <jm2k> IBM T41P wireless stopped working, cant enable or use again. How do i re-enable it?
[22:34] <jbroome> !resolution | JoelC1976
[22:34] <Mrevox11> ok fryguy. I see an xorg.conf.failsafe  is that it?
[22:34] <pen> JoelC1976, do you know xorg.conf? try it
[22:34] <Fryguy--> JoelC1976: edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and add the resolutions you want manually
[22:34] <powertool08> Fryguy--: Is that in the repos?
[22:34] <Fryguy--> powertool08: maybe
[22:35] <Fryguy--> powertool08: google + apt-cache will tell you
[22:35] <powertool08> Fryguy--: Ok, thanks :)
[22:35] <JoelC1976> Ok, I'll give that a try.
[22:36] <idx> __yy: If the essid is wrong, what then?
[22:36] <Doc> ivan@bebozole.com
[22:36] <Doc> blah
[22:36] <alleand> fryguy--: do you know how to run the file without having X Server running?
[22:36] <__yy> idx: then you're trying to connect to the wrong network.
[22:36] <shader> macrobad: I don't know where all of the bytes came from. I'm pretty sure I haven't had network, otherwise I wouldn't have to work so hard to get it to work. Maybe pinging a lot can account for it?
[22:36] <__yy> idx: try 'sudo iwconfig yournetworkdevice essid yourwirelessnetwork; sudo dhclient yournetworkdevice'
[22:36] <idx> Ah, I see. No, the network is fine. Ubuntu is just refusing to recognise the adapter, that is all
[22:37] <nxusr> how do you auto hide panel on kde4?
[22:37] <jm2k> how do i check if wireless is enabled?
[22:37] <Fryguy--> alleand: yes just run it from a terminal
[22:37] <Fryguy--> alleand: same way you would run any app
[22:37] <Fryguy--> alleand: if it isn't in your path, specify a proper relative path to it
[22:38] <beautifulsnow> Mmmm my laptop has a tiny mic, but I use a logitech mic... so how do I turn off the laptop mic? :P
[22:38] <Overand> I'm a fairly experienced ubuntu and *nix user in general, but I'm going to ask a ridiculous question.
[22:38] <__yy> idx: you mean ubuntu isn't recongnizing your NIC?
[22:38]  * jbroome waits eagerly
[22:38] <Overand> Is there a reasonably sane way to migrate a system from 32 bit to 64 bit?
[22:38] <eitreach> gedit crashes as root when I try to open and save files. Segfault. What do I do to fix it?
[22:38] <bpa> Is there a way to execute privileged commands like 'ifconfig' from within a perl script?
[22:38] <jbroome> Overand: backup /home and reload. :)
[22:38] <Fryguy--> Overand: backup /home and reinstall
[22:38] <Overand> (It'd be an ubuntu-server system)
[22:38] <Overand> heh
[22:38] <macrobad> shader: well, pinging accounts for "TX packets" only. It might be so that you have received packets, but they were not processed, e.g. they were not meant for you.
[22:38] <Overand> That's what I figured.
[22:38] <__yy> bpa: run the script as root?
[22:38] <alleand> fryguy--: when i run the file in the teminal i get the error: "you appear to be running x server, please exit X before installing"
[22:38] <KOPRajs> hi there... I've just installed Ubuntu using the Wubi installer but I have a small problem... I need to change the codepage and iocharset of host filesystem mounted in /host... it would be best withou restart but I can't find where to change it even after restart... anyone can help?
[22:38] <Overand> It's actually more going to be a 'ugh, software raid migration? thing.
[22:38] <Mrevox11> Fryguy: I found a backup of the old xorg.conf so how do I replace it over the other one?
[22:39] <Fryguy--> alleand: sudo /etc/init.d/?dm stop
[22:39] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: use cp or mv
[22:39] <Mrevox11> cp?
[22:39] <shader> macrobad: so, in that case, what do you think could be preventing me from getting dhcp, or pinging the router?
[22:39] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: yes
[22:39] <Mrevox11> what is that? Copy Paste?
[22:39] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: no, the cp command
[22:39] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: in terminal
[22:39] <amenado> bpa-> i think if your user is allowed to execute specific priviledge command in  sudoers file
[22:39] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: or the mv command
[22:39] <bpa> __yy: I have tried running sudo myscript.pl and it still gives the SIOCSIFFLAGS: Permission denied
[22:39] <Mrevox11> what do I type.
[22:39] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: or copy/paste between 2 files would work too
[22:39] <ProcrastinatoR> hey all, i have some sound issues tested both with mobo's nvidia sound card and sb audigy soundcard, CD's play ok, sound files play but stop once i move the mouse. and if i use the keyboard to stop the payer(vlc,totem tested) the sound keeps playing. sound preferences thingy oe test the sound ok for the 2nd  sound card (initially not for he onboard sound)
[22:40] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: or a file save as if you are in gedit
[22:40] <matthew__> anyone know what could be stopping me (and root, in fact) for removing what appears to be an empty .gvfs directory in my home folder?
[22:40] <robokop> on my mac i can invert the color output, is there a way i can do that in linux?
[22:40] <bpa> amenado: thanks, I will try that really quick
[22:40] <Resnick> Can anyone tell me how to remove files from the trash can that have root permissions?
[22:40] <__yy> matthew__: no write permissions for the directory maybe
[22:40] <unop> matthew__, how are you attempting to remove it?
[22:40] <Fryguy--> matthew__: gvfsd running
[22:40] <Mrevox11> well couldnt I just copy all of the text out of one file. And delete all the text in the other file and then save it.
[22:40] <Fryguy--> Resnick: use sudo
[22:40] <amenado> bpa-> try  an entry like  username ALL=(root) /sbin/ifconfig wlan0 up
[22:40] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: why not
[22:40] <matthew__> unop: rm -r, then rm -f
[22:41] <__yy> Resnick: use sudo rm files to remove here
[22:41] <idx> __yy: I'm not sure, all I know that after boot it is almost as if my adapter isn't plugged in.
[22:41] <matthew__> Fryguy--: Shouldn't using sudo get around that if it is running?
[22:41] <linuxkrn> yo everyone, does anyone know how to get dmraid working on a intel moble sata raid 82801 controller?  dmraid reports no disks, but "dmraid -b" shows two drives (raid-0)
[22:41] <Fryguy--> matthew__: no
[22:41] <idx> They might've fixed it by now. But sadly, I can't update without the internet. Or can I?
[22:41] <Gman99999> my microphone doesnt work anymore,  I'm using hardy heron, I've checked the sound levels and nothing appears to be muted
[22:41] <__yy> idx: so it doesn't show up in ifconfig at all?
[22:41] <jm2k> how to i renable my wireless or reinstall drivers?
[22:41] <ikonia> linuxkrn: fakeraid, in my opinion is a very bad idea on linux
[22:41] <idx> Is there a place offline you can get a batch update or something?
[22:41] <unop> matthew__, and the exact error message you get is?
[22:42] <matthew__> Fryguy--: but isn't root the magical override to everything?
[22:42] <amenado> jm2k-> has it worked before?
[22:42] <Fryguy--> matthew__: no
[22:42] <__yy> idx: you can download the ubuntu CD's and use them
[22:42] <matthew__> unop: Permission denied
[22:42] <jm2k> amenado: yes
[22:42] <arooni-mobile> i'm trying to watch a .wmv video from vlc.... but am getting no audio output..... i know this video does have audio output.  i can hear audio elsewhere on my system.  i';m running hardy on a t61 (intel 950 integrated sound)
[22:42] <macrobad> shader: No idea, just guesses. First of all, sometimes, although rarely, ifconfig fails to give you the correct information. In that case it could be obtained from 'ip link show' or directly from /proc. Another thing that could have happened, is a weird firewall rule, if you were playing with it. Finally, you could have had problems either with routing table, or with ip address.
[22:42] <idx> __yy: And they have all the latest updates?
[22:42] <linuxkrn> ikonia: thanks, don't need an opinion about it.  I'm dual booting xp with it so have to use it
[22:42] <jm2k> amenado: ubuntu did an update then it stopped working.
[22:42] <Fryguy--> arooni-mobile: use mplayer
[22:42] <c0mrade> hiya is it possible in apache to specify ServerName mail.* , what I'm trying to achieve is that when you type mail.anydomain.com it opens mail directory?
[22:42] <Gman99999> unop do you know how to troubleshoot a microphone problem in ubuntu hardy heron?
[22:42] <matthew__> Fryguy--: That might be it then, i'll see if gvfs is running
[22:42] <ikonia> !fakeraid | linuxkrn
[22:42] <__yy> idx: a new CD should be pretty close, it might not be bleeding edge though
[22:42] <unop> matthew__,  sudo rm -rf /path/to/.gvfs
[22:42] <amenado> jm2k well, which chip does your nic card have?
[22:42] <ProcrastinatoR> hey all, i have some sound issues tested both with mobo's nvidia sound card and sb audigy soundcard, CD's play ok, sound files play but stop once i move the mouse. and if i use the keyboard to stop the payer(vlc,totem tested) the sound keeps playing. sound preferences thingy oe test the sound ok for the 2nd  sound card (initially not for he onboard sound)???
[22:43] <Resnick> __yy: Fryguy--: I Understoof that much, but what is the location of the trash directory in ubuntu?
[22:43] <Fryguy--> !trash | Resnick
[22:43] <robokop> on my mac i can invert the color output, is there a way i can do that in linux?
[22:43] <Resnick> Fryguy--: Ah ha!
[22:43] <linuxkrn> ikonia: read that howto already, didn't work for me.
[22:43] <goldbond> hey i receiving an error when i try to boot up 'busy box"...."action 0x2 frozen"
[22:43] <unop> Gman99999, not really -- tell everyone what the problem is - maybe someone can relate to your problem
[22:43] <Resnick> Fryguy--: Thank you for that. I am used to MC :)
[22:43] <jm2k> amenado: i see in Hardware drivers its 'Atheros'.
[22:43] <ikonia> linuxkrn: as I said, fakeraid is a very bad idea/technology on linux
[22:43] <goldbond> busy box offers a prompt to debug
[22:43] <Fryguy--> robokop: compiz supporta that, look in compizconfig-settings-manager
[22:43] <matthew__> unop: It seems that gvfs is running, which would appear to be the problem. What is gvfs? And does something bad happen if I kill the process?
[22:43] <jm2k> amenado: dunno if that helps.
[22:43] <goldbond> does anyone know what is going wrong?
[22:44] <dbbolton> How can I disable fade effects in KDE 3 ?
[22:44] <oOoO> .
[22:44] <amenado> jm2k-> you can try to re-enable it again.. what happens when you do an iwconfig ath0 ?
[22:44] <idx> __yy: Well I have 8.04, but you're saying that the lastest iso might be 8.06+updates?
[22:44] <arooni-mobile> Fryguy--, that fixed it; thanks
[22:44] <Gman99999> Hey everyone my microphone no longer works, it was working and then one day it just stopped and I can't seem to find out why, I've checked all the sound levels I am aware of, in hardy heron but nothing seems to work
[22:44] <goldbond> ata2.00: status: {DRDY} is another error i see
[22:44] <idx> 8.04 even
[22:44] <db92> anyone knows of any tricks to lessen the ubuntu boot time? :P
[22:44] <Gman99999> I
[22:44] <shader> macrobad: ok, I repeatedly ran ifconfig for a while, watching the RX byte number. It went up by about 100 or so every few seconds. That doesn't sound very fast, but it does imply some sort of packet reception. Now what?
[22:44] <Flannel> db92: Install bootchart, and find out whats taking so long
[22:44] <ikonia> db92: remove uneeded services, make sure your not depending on any network services, dhcp or wirless for example
[22:44] <jm2k> amenado: iwconfig ath0 = "no such device"
[22:44] <Gman99999> I'm using an hp laptop, it seems alot of problems have been fixed since gutsy
[22:45] <shader> macrobad: I could try fixing the routing tables. How should they be set up?
[22:45] <Mrevox11> ok fryguy. I did that. I replaced with the back up. It looks just as it did before I edited it. But I restarted X and now IM still not able to change my Resolution or enable Advanced Effects....Help?
[22:45] <temoto-mobi> Should gnome-do be run as daemon?
[22:45] <goldbond> ata4.00: revalidation failed is another error that has just showed up
[22:45] <unop> matthew__, i believe it is the GNOME Virtual File System daemon - you should ideally remove .gvfs when you are logged off
[22:45] <macrobad> shader: do 'route -n' and check that it looks ok.
[22:45] <__yy> idx: That should work... but I've never tried updating via CD, so I really don't know anything about it beyond that it should be possible.
[22:46] <shader> macrobad: well, what does "ok" look like?
[22:46] <jm2k> iwconfig = "no wireless extensions" for lo, eth0, irda0
[22:46] <psych> is there a way to disable Auto-open feature for audio cds and etc??
[22:46] <Gman99999> is anyone here a microphone expert on here?
[22:46] <unop> Gman99999, have you tried adjusting settings in the gnome-sound-properties dialog ?
[22:46] <jeff__> hello. I've got an old pentium 3, 450mhz computer with 384 mb of ram upon which I must rely due to a laptop death. I'm currently running an old (5.04) distro of ubuntu and I'm curious how I'd fare with a more current version.
[22:46] <Overand> Gman99999: define 'microphone expert'
[22:47] <Gman99999> yes I have tried that
[22:47] <Fryguy--> jeff__: pretty similarly
[22:47] <amenado> jm2k-> can you peek around /lib/firmware/`uname -r` for the drivers for it? or maybe in /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/wireless/
[22:47] <ikonia> jeff__: fine, just disable "cool" graphics
[22:47] <Mrevox11> Fryguy did you read my above ?
[22:47] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: nope
[22:47] <__yy> jeff__: A new version of ubuntu should be fine as long as you don't run flashy stuff.
[22:47] <Overand> Gman99999: I could recommend a phantom-powered large diaphragm condenser mic with a pop filter and a preamp with a nice peak limiter, but that's outside the scope of #ubuntu
[22:47] <jeff__> these are the answers for which I had hoped :)
[22:47] <__yy> jeff__: find a nice lightweight window manager and you should be golden.
[22:47] <macrobad> shader: It should contain at least the following lines: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25801/
[22:48] <ProcrastinatoR> my sound is buggy, (read previous help req) recent download of ubuntu auto updated 1 hr ago, lost as to how to fix this any suggestions are welcome
[22:48] <leeping2007> Hey there, I'm trying to compile a piece of software and I'm getting the error message: pbeginf.c:(.text+0x31): undefined reference to `iargc_' Does this tell me where in the source code I should look? (I can't see a line number)
[22:48] <unop> jeff__, you might look into running a lightweight window manager like fluxbox or openbox too -- but your mileage may vary
[22:48] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: you can't do advanced effects without compositing afaik, as for change resolution, just use the old xorg.conf you had and you should have the same resolution.  if you don't then i don't know
[22:48] <macrobad> shader: the first one pointing to your local network, and the second one pointing to the default gateway
[22:48] <shader> ok
[22:48] <Mrevox11> I replaced the xorg.conf with a back up. It now looks like it did before I added those lines of text. Now I restarted X and Im still not able to adjust screen resolution or  enable any advanced effects
[22:48] <WebcamWonder> jeff__: look at xfce - xubuntu
[22:48] <unop> leeping2007, is that the only error you get?
[22:48] <__yy> leeping2007: that's a linker error, not a compile error. The code compiled fine, now it's having trouble linking the compiled bits together.
[22:48] <unop> leeping2007, usually you have to put the error into some kind of context
[22:49] <ericpersson> IndyGunFreak: have you seend the do-release-upgrade available from gutsy and above?
[22:49] <leeping2007> unop: I'll pastebin it, thanks :) one moment
[22:49] <ericpersson> IndyGunFreak: mentioned on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardyUpgrades
[22:49] <beautifulsnow> Mmmm my laptop has a tiny mic, but I use a logitech mic... so how do I turn off the laptop mic? all i can record is static which isnt pretty :P
[22:49] <psych> is there a way to disable Auto-open feature for audio cds and etc??
[22:49] <macrobad> shader: if you don't go to internet, the first one should be enough
[22:49] <ericpersson> IndyGunFreak: seems to ease the upgrading.. might be worth a shot next time.. ;)
[22:49] <leeping2007> __yy, Does that mean I should include another -L flag?
[22:49] <jeff__> I confess that I'm unfamiliar with linux in general and window managers in particular, but I'll start reading. thanks for all the replies
[22:49] <beautifulsnow> yes psych  go to your file manager preferences (go to your home folder, then to preferences)
[22:49] <jm2k> amenado: what is the command to peek around /lib/firmware?
[22:49] <goldbond> how can i debug my ubuntu installation when it never escapes the boot screen with the orange bar moving back and forth?
[22:49] <Fryguy--> jm2k: cd and ls
[22:50] <jeff__> does xubuntu use a different window manager than ubuntu?
[22:50] <leeping2007> http://paste.ubuntu.com/25802/
[22:50] <__yy> leeping2007: possibly
[22:50] <Fryguy--> jeff__: yes
[22:50] <goldbond> is there a way to see a verbrose boot sequence?
[22:50] <Mrevox11> Fryguy any help?
[22:50] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: no
[22:50] <trashguy> it uses
[22:50] <amenado> jm2k-> yes..cd and ls
[22:50] <trashguy> XFCE
[22:50] <Flannel> goldbond: at grub, hit escape, highlight the choce, hit 'e', remove quiet and splash, then boot that edited line,.
[22:50] <Mrevox11> Ok......I guess ill just figure this one out myself.
[22:50] <goldbond> thanks
[22:50] <jeff__> ok. I'll spare you more questions and start my own research
[22:50] <Dr_willis> goldbond,  for starters at the grub menus, edit the boot line and append 'nofb nosplash'  to get rid  of the splash screen.
[22:50] <jeff__> appreciate the help
[22:50] <Fryguy--> jeff__: it uses XFCE as it's desktop environment, i don't know what the default window manager is for XFCE off the top of my head, google can probably tell you
[22:51] <jeff__> thanks Fryguy. I'm on it :)
[22:51] <Dr_willis> goldbond,  or yea.. remove 'splash and quiet' if its there. :)  nofb is optinal. but i use it all the time also.
[22:51] <amenado> jm2k-> also confirm your chip via   sudo lshw -C network
[22:51] <unop> leeping2007, and that's all the output you have? are you sure?
[22:51] <__yy> Fryguy--: I though XFCE _was_ a window manager?
[22:51] <macrobad> shader: so, do you have that line, and does it correlate to the ifconfig output?
[22:51] <glitsj16> psych: check the media tab in your nautilus preferences for those ..
[22:51] <Fryguy--> __yy: no
[22:51] <Dr_willis> !info xfce
[22:51] <VelcroMan> Hi, i wanted to remove a folder with mp3's from my cellphone memorycard. So, because i'm used to windows, i clicked the folder and pressed delete. The folder dissappeared, but no space was freed.
[22:51] <unop> __yy, it's a desktop environment
[22:51] <Chaotic_Descent> ok, so why is this not working? sudo cp -r ./olduser/ ./newuser/
[22:52] <Chaotic_Descent> it just hangs there... it's not copying files any more.
[22:52] <__yy> ahh, ok. Bigger package.
[22:52] <leeping2007> unop, I'm fairly positive.  There are many warnings that come before that, but no errors.. I searched for the strings "error", "undefined", and "not found"
[22:52] <Dr_willis> VelcroMan,  its in the .trash directory on the card most likely.  *yes its annoying*
[22:52] <psych> glitsj16, yes, beautifulsnow told me before and i just did it. ty both
[22:52] <unop> leeping2007, paste everything you have there -- it's easier to put things into context
[22:52] <snmpee> version: ubuntu server, I want to properly change my hostname. I had a problem using sudo the last time I tried this, I don't want to mess anything up again. What's the proper way?
[22:52] <macrobad> shader: just for a case, you may also wish to do 'ping -I eth0 192.168.1.1', or whatever your gateway is. This way, you'll ensure that the packets are send via the right interface.
[22:52] <Chaotic_Descent> also, it still copied the folder so now I have /home/newuser/olduser/ instead of the contents of olduser in newuser..
[22:52] <leeping2007> unop, sure thing, but it's a very long file :)
[22:52] <ProcrastinatoR> hey all, i have some sound issues tested both with mobo's nvidia sound card and sb audigy soundcard, CD's play ok, sound files play but stop once i move the mouse. and if i use the keyboard to stop the payer(vlc,totem tested) the sound keeps playing. sound preferences thingy oe test the sound ok for the 2nd  sound card (initially not for he onboard sound)?? unsure as how to further troubleshoot this  any suggestions are welcome!!!???!!!
[22:52] <Fryguy--> __yy: straight from xfce page: Xfce is a lightweight desktop environment for various *NIX systems. Designed for productivity, it loads and executes applications fast, while conserving system resources
[22:53] <__yy> Fryguy--: indeed, my mistake.
[22:53] <jm2k> amenado: FYI, it is a Atheros AR5212 802.11abg NIC.
[22:53] <snmpee> ubuntu server, I want to properly change my hostname. I had a problem using sudo the last time I tried this, I don't want to mess anything up again. What's the proper way?
[22:53] <Chaotic_Descent> how do I copy the contents of a folder instead of the folder itself?
[22:53] <Dr_willis> !hostname | snmpee
[22:53] <Fryguy--> __yy: although it looks like the window manager is ALSO called xfce, so we are both right
[22:53] <__yy> Chaotic_Descent: cp -R folder/*
[22:53] <VelcroMan> Dr_willis: There are no .trash directory :/ But now the appeared a folder called PHONE_CARD_, and now i don't have permissions to open the PHONE_CARD folder
[22:53] <goldbond> Chaotic_Descent: /*
[22:53] <unop> Chaotic_Descent,  sudo cp -Rv olduser newuser
[22:53] <leeping2007> unop, I pasted the entire thing onto there
[22:53] <Fryguy--> snmpee: /etc/hostname
[22:54] <unop> leeping2007, onto where?
[22:54] <Dr_willis> snmpee,  use hostname command, AND edit the /etc/hosts file.. keep a root shell open , and TEST that sudo works in another shell.. befor you close out all the root shells. :)
[22:54] <leeping2007> http://paste.ubuntu.com/25803/
[22:54] <leeping2007> heh, forgot the link :)
[22:54] <Mrevox11> Can anyone point me in the right direction to get my screen resolution back to 1280x800 ?
[22:54] <Dr_willis> VelcroMan,  double check for any .Trash or .trash dirs.. ive seen them befor on my thumbdrives. and so forth. No idea on the PhoneCard Directory
[22:54] <Overand> Mrevox11: System - Preferences - Screen Resolution
[22:55] <Fryguy--> __yy: actually it's called xfwm, i just went into their svn repository and checked
[22:55] <amenado> jm2k-> those uses madwifi
[22:55] <Mrevox11> It only lets me choose 800x600
[22:55] <__yy> leeping2007: dear god, 40k lines of warnings!!
[22:55] <Mrevox11> it wont let me choose anything else.
[22:55] <Chaotic_Descent> ok, /* thanks.
[22:55] <Kovert> running ubuntu in terminal mode need some software to limit the desktops for certain users
[22:55] <Overand> Mrevox11: DId you make remove the restricted drivers by any chance, or make some other change?
[22:55] <leeping2007> __yy, isn't it common for a compile log to be full of warnings?
[22:55] <Kovert> Sebyon didnt cut iot
[22:55] <IndyGunFreak> ericpersson: glad it all worked out for you....
[22:55] <sensae> Using the brightness controls on my laptop they are way too sensitive - at full brightness, I press down twice and I'm at lowest brightness
[22:55] <Dr_willis> Kovert,  what kind of limits?
[22:55] <leeping2007> Maybe not this full of warnings... =/
[22:55] <jm2k> amenado: not sure what you mean.
[22:55] <Chaotic_Descent> how do I learn this stuff without getting totally lost in an unending, directionless sea of information?
[22:56] <Mrevox11> I followed some instruction from fryguy to help me get compiz fuzion working. I tried his advice and it left my computer in this state.
[22:56] <__yy> leeping2007: I'm used to maybe 10 lines of warnings... at most.
[22:56] <Fryguy--> Kovert: please elaborate
[22:56] <snmpee> is there a bash GUI for network configuration ?
[22:56] <shader> macrobad: sorry I took so long. route doesn't always listen to me :) Anyway, the routing table now looks like that. I'll try the ping -I eth0 next
[22:56] <Kovert> Dr_willis: to not allow them certian app or make changes or write to disk
[22:56] <sensae> How do I make the brightness control less sensitive?
[22:56] <Fryguy--> snmpee: bash gui?  you mean cli?  /etc/network/interfaces
[22:56] <__yy> leeping2007: how big is this package you're compiling?
[22:56] <Chaotic_Descent> other than coming here and asking specific questions and having people tell me exactly what to do? :S is there any middle-ground?
[22:56] <amenado> jm2k look for madwifi includes drivers and utilities for atheros chips
[22:56] <leeping2007> gah! so maybe I'm doing something seriously wrong here ...
[22:56] <goldbond> Dr_willis: grub does not save my changes and i still see the splash screen after i make the changes
[22:57] <leeping2007> the source directory is about 164M
[22:57] <Overand> Fryguy--: want to follow up with Mrevox11 there?
[22:57] <CelticLord> nuit!!
[22:57] <Overand> I'm not fantastic at xorg stuff.
[22:57] <Mrevox11> I asked him and he simply told me no.
[22:57] <amenado> jm2k-> they might be there already...look in  /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/net/wireless
[22:57] <goldbond> Dr_willis: do you know what i am doing wrong?
[22:57] <takamarou> Hi, I just installed an Nvidia e-GeForce FX 5200, and I'm having trouble getting it to load the nvidia drivers.  Right now I'm running in low graphics mode.  Can anyone help?
[22:57] <Dr_willis> Kovert,  Hmm.. Other then putting the apps in  a specif dir/path and locking down the users path.. not sure how to do that properly. There may be some more advanced stuff i have never used that can do that.  -  If you  dont want the users to alter their own settings, I know kde has a koisk mode. not sure about gnome.
[22:57] <Fryguy--> Overand: i've already helped him out as much as I can. he either hasn't loaded back the xorg.conf he had when he started, or he did something else along the way.  I don't know anything about xorg either. i don't use it
[22:58] <Overand> Mrevox11: It sounds like fryguy had you enable the 'restricted drivers' - yoyu might just want to try disabling those for now.
[22:58] <amenado> jm2k look for drivers that start with ath_
[22:58] <Fryguy--> Overand: no
[22:58] <Dr_willis> goldbond,  e for edit, make changes.. hit enter, b to boot...  is about all one does.. i belive...
[22:58] <__yy> leeping2007: ok, so quite large... my guess, (and it's just a guess) is that you're using a different compiler than the program was developed with.
[22:58] <IndyGunFreak> takamarou: i had a fx5500 that ran perfectly, did you enable the restricted driver?
[22:58] <Fryguy--> Overand: he already had fglrx, i just had him add option composite, and fglrx doesn't support it
[22:58] <glitsj16> Chaotic_Descent: try starting with https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal to get the basics
[22:58] <Kovert> oik thanks dr willis
[22:58] <shader> macrobad: ok, I tried ping -I, and the gw is still Host Unreachable
[22:58] <Dr_willis> goldbond,  the chang4es will not get 'saved' its a one time edit.
[22:58] <Kovert> Fryguy--: any ideas
[22:58] <leeping2007> __yy, I'll check that.  I might have to use ifort instead of gfortran... thank you
[22:58] <Overand> ah hm.
[22:58] <unop> ChaosTheory_, introduce some verbosity into your commands .. that means knowing how to do it .. e.g. for cp  -v sets this, this way the command is telling you what it is doing at each step along the way - that helps -- the rest is knowing from experience, what the pitfalls are and when to avoid them
[22:58] <takamarou> IndygunFreak, yeah.  I did.  I've been working on this card for two days now.  Just setting up the ubuntu drivers isn't working.
[22:58] <Mrevox11> No I had restricted drivers enabled to begin with. He had me add some line about composite something or other into my xorg.conf
[22:59] <unop> leeping2007, what is the name of the app you are building?
[22:59] <ProcrastinatoR> Mrevox11:  have you changed your xorg.conf file?
[22:59] <Overand> Mrevox11: just a moment.
[22:59] <Mrevox11> It didnt work. So I restored xorg.conf from a back up that I had. And now its stuck like this.
[22:59] <Fryguy--> Kovert: any ideas for what? you need to use my name if you want me to see text. don't use my name sometimes and then not other times
[22:59] <goldbond> Dr_willis: okay. but, when i remove quiet and add nosplash, i still see the same boot splash and cannot debug what is going wrong
[22:59] <IndyGunFreak> takamarou: what do you mean by not working, have you looked in nvidia-settings?
[22:59] <Overand> Mrevox11: you mght want to let ubunt reconfigure X
[22:59] <leeping2007> unop, it's called NWchem, it's a quantum chemistry package
[22:59] <Chaotic_Descent> hrm. thanks.
[22:59] <Mrevox11> How so?
[22:59] <Fryguy--> Mrevox11: is the backup you are using the same as what you pastebin'd a while ago
[22:59] <Overand> Mrevox11: just a moment
[22:59] <Kovert> Fryguy--: I need an applicatyion like seybon that will limit what a user can do in a terminal install of ubuntu
[22:59] <takamarou> IndyGunFreak, I have tried using nvidia-settings, but it gives me an error saying that I'm not using the nvidia X drivers and to use nvidia-xconfig.  After doing that and rebooting X, I still get the error.
[22:59] <Mrevox11> It was the same config. I just removed those few lines you told me to add.
[23:00] <macrobad> shader: try running 'sudo tcpdump -i eth0' at the same time, so that we can verify you're actually sending the packets.
[23:00] <Dr_willis> goldbond,  try 'nofb nosplash noquiet'   perhaps.
[23:00] <unop> leeping2007, and you are following instructions from some authoritative source i assume?
[23:00] <Overand> Mrevox11: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[23:00] <Fryguy--> Kovert: no idea
[23:00] <jm2k> amenado: only see 'at__' drivers. possibly those?
[23:00] <shader> macrobad: ok
[23:00] <macrobad> shader: tcpdump would require you to press Ctrl-C when you're done.
[23:00] <Kovert> Fryguy--: thanks anyway
[23:00] <IndyGunFreak> takamarou: not really sure, like i said, fx5500 ran almost perfectly out fo the box, dual screens and all, and it probably uses the same driver as the fx5200
[23:00] <goldbond> Dr_willis: i used control alt f1 and now i see errors ata.100 revalidation failed
[23:01] <Kovert> Dr_willis: keosk on kde can be used in terminal server
[23:01] <takamarou> IndyGunFreak, ok, thanks anyways.
[23:01] <Fryguy--> goldbond: potentially hardware failure
[23:01] <goldbond> Dr_willis: is that all the information i can expect?
[23:01] <joey__> whats the thing called that shows cpu eth0 mem info on desktop ?
[23:01] <leeping2007> unop, I am, but I think I may have found one problem... perhaps I shouldn't be using gfortran as a compiler
[23:01] <Fryguy--> joey__: conky
[23:01] <Dr_willis> goldbond,  smart move. :)  that sounds... bad... if you can get to a login: and login, check dmesg output.
[23:01] <IndyGunFreak> takamarou: are you sure you tried running nvidia-settings, while the restricted driver was enabled?
[23:01] <takamarou> IndyGunFreak, yes.
[23:01] <Dr_willis> goldbond,  i would open up the case and check all cables and drives also.. (power off first, of course) :)
[23:02] <goldbond> Dr_willis: will do, thanks
[23:02] <bvwBryan> would anyone have any insight on no "line input" sound recorded/captured?  More specifically, Shoutcast server/DNAS?
[23:02] <joey__> i see on pics that peoples desktops look nice and it looks diff then conky
[23:02] <Fryguy--> joey__: maybe gdesklets or screenlets then
[23:02] <VelcroMan> Dr_willis: There are no .trash dir :/ unless its hidden somehow
[23:02] <clintchance> Has anyone had any success adding the pidgin icon to avant window navigator and having it display status
[23:03] <ProcrastinatoR> help!, i have some sound issues tested both with mobo's nvidia sound card and sb audigy soundcard, CD's play ok, sound files play but stop once i move the mouse. and if i use the keyboard to stop the payer(vlc,totem tested) the sound keeps playing. "sound preferences" control panel test the sound ok(i hear sound and it stops when i click stop) for the 2nd  sound card (initially not for he onboard sound)?? unsure as how to further troubleshoot thi
[23:03] <ProcrastinatoR> s  any suggestions are welcome!!!???!!!
[23:03] <Fryguy--> VelcroMan: files starting with a . are hidden by default
[23:03] <Fryguy--> !trash | VelcroMan
[23:03] <Dr_willis> VelcroMan,  No idea then where they went.
[23:03] <SliMM> hello
[23:03] <Chaotic_Descent> ok... how do I make sure I don't overwrite the user folder? from /home$ sudo cp olduser/* newuser
[23:03] <Fryguy--> SliMM:
[23:03] <Dr_willis> Fryguy--,  hes looking on a removeable sd card.. deleted files.. space waswent freed up.
[23:03] <takamarou> does anyone know much about getting nvidia drivers to work?  I've tried installing them through the ubuntu hardware drivers manager, envy, and installing them by hand (with a guide)..  none of them seem to work.  any help please?
[23:03] <Chaotic_Descent> or do I need like... newuser/ ?...
[23:03] <leeping2007> I'll try with the different compiler.  Thanks everyone :)
[23:03] <unop> Chaotic_Descent, open up the  cp manpage -- and familiarise yourself with it
[23:03] <shader> macrobad: how do you run two processes at once?
[23:03] <SliMM> Fryguy--: well, well, restless
[23:03] <SliMM> :-)
[23:04] <macrobad> shader: do you have one terminal only?
[23:04] <Fryguy--> shader: background one first
[23:04] <Fryguy--> shader: using ctrl-z or &
[23:04] <Dr_willis> VelcroMan,  look for any unusual  directories with . in the name I guess..  Other then that.. im out of ideas.
[23:04] <shader> macrobad: sorry, I have to go
[23:04] <macrobad> shader: Then, there are two options. Either like Fryguy said, or with screen
[23:04] <macrobad> shader: kk. nighty
[23:04] <Fryguy--> shader: or use a terminal multiplexer like screen, or use separate virtual consoles
[23:04] <ernesto> i just updated my ubuntu and it killed my soundsystem, i dont have system sounds, any ideas?
[23:05] <SliMM> I have installed the Colemak layout and the CapsLock doesn't work as expected: not only that it's turned into a backspace, it still works as CapsLock aswell, and it does so for any layout
[23:05] <SliMM> not just Colemak
[23:05] <clintchance> Has anyone had any success adding the pidgin icon to avant window navigator and having it display status
[23:05] <SliMM> so, any time I hit CapsLock, the previous character is deleted and CapsLock is switched on or off accordingly
[23:05] <joey__> hey
[23:06] <SliMM> this seems like an unimportant but nasty bug
[23:06] <joey__> it starts with a g or somthing that shows the info etc
[23:06] <iilh> Jack_Sparrow are you in here?
[23:06] <SliMM> any suggestions regarding this?

[23:06] <clintchance> iilh he is not on
[23:07] <macrobad> SLiMM: Are you using Gnome, or what?
[23:07] <Chaotic_Descent> unop: not much in man cp. only thing relevant is SOURCE DEST VS SOURCE DIRECTORY VS DIRECTORY SOURCE... and I don't know... what the difference is, or how you specify which one...

[23:08] <linxeh> travis: so ask! :)
[23:08] <travis> can anyone help?
[23:08] <Fryguy--> Chaotic_Descent: cp source target
[23:08] <Fryguy--> Chaotic_Descent: pretty simple
[23:08] <Chaotic_Descent> linxeh: I'm guessing there's no danger in overwriting a destination folder then...
[23:08] <Storrgie> I have a dvd playing on my laptop, but after about a minute of me not using it and letting it just play the sound and video starts jittering very badly, HELP!

[23:08] <iilh> clintchange, do you know why the parameter "all_generic_ide" does not work in ubuntu 8.04?
[23:08] <Fryguy--> clintchance: try xev + xmodmap
[23:09] <alleand> fryguy--: im not sure if im going something wrong, but it looks like i need to run the file without having Xserver on. i tryed alt+ctrl+f1 but it still said i had to exit xserver before i could run the installation
[23:09] <travis> lenxeh: i've managed to configure an nvidia geforde pcx 8600 gt 1gb on hardy heron
[23:09] <clintchance> fryguy-- ok will try thanks!
[23:09] <takamarou> I'm having trouble getting the nvidia drivers to work for an e-GeForce FX 5200, can anyone help?
[23:09] <iilh> *clintchance
[23:09] <Fryguy--> alleand: like i told you already, /etc/init.d/?dm stop

[23:09] <Fryguy--> alleand: please pay attention
[23:09] <Mrevox11> Overand: I tried every possible thing on that page. Still...no avail.
[23:09] <linxeh> Chaotic_Descent: what are you trying to do?
[23:09] <travis> but i still cant remove a small vertical shadowed line
[23:09] <Chaotic_Descent> why does it still freeze every time I try to copy my user folder?!?!?!
[23:09] <macrobad> SliMM: So, go to System->Preferences->Keyboard, Layouts, Advanced (or Parameters, or Options... I am using non-english version), and fix it.
[23:09] <Chaotic_Descent> I'm trying to copy my old user folder into a new user folder.
[23:10] <travis> wich i managed to remove via de windows nvidia configure program
[23:10] <Fryguy--> Chaotic_Descent: and what command are you using to do that
[23:10] <iilh> ikonia where did you read that? but is a bug? can you give me any link, please..
[23:10] <Chaotic_Descent> good. it's done. nevermind.
[23:10] <ikonia> iilh: I read it on a detailed bug report
[23:10] <__yy> Chaotic_Descent: what do you meen by "freeze", if you mean "sits and shows no output" then that's just what cp does.
[23:10] <Chaotic_Descent> maybe my HD light isn't plugged in. I could have sworn it was.
[23:10] <travis> i tried everithing looked into many many forums and still havent found an answer
[23:10] <LinuxKitten> whar do i find jack-tools
[23:10] <alleand> fryguy--: im sorry, i tryed that, but when i typed that into the terminal xserver shut down...but i wasent able to start the file. was i doing something wrong?
[23:11] <travis> how the **** do i remove that line
[23:11] <Fryguy--> alexanderwz: "wasn't able to start the file" what do you mean
[23:11] <ikonia> travis: there is no need for ****'s
[23:11] <linxeh> Chaotic_Descent: if you are trying to avoid overwriting existing files then you hit a classic - what do you do when youve got two dirs you want to merge
[23:11] <Mrevox11> Anyone? I need help with some video problems
[23:11] <travis> sorry
[23:11] <travis> but i am desperate
[23:11] <ikonia> travis: if you can't say it without swearing - don't say it
[23:11] <Fryguy--> travis: what verical line
[23:11] <Storrgie> ﻿I have a dvd playing on my laptop, but after about a minute of me not using it and letting it just play the sound and video starts jittering very badly, HELP!

[23:11] <SliMM> macrobad: it's not working
[23:11] <LinuxKitten> whar is the jack server
[23:11] <travis> i ve managed to install the nvidia privative drivers
[23:11] <ikonia> LinuxKitten: it's a sound server
[23:12] <iilh> ikonia ah ok, so it's a bug, and all_generic_ide has been removed, isn't it?? because i'm one of the persons that really need it..
[23:12] <travis> for a geforce 8600 gt 1gb 1278 tv
[23:12] <Fryguy--> LinuxKitten: it's a sound architecutre, somewhat similar to pulseaudio
[23:12] <travis> 128
[23:12] <LinuxKitten> ikonia: how do i activate it to use in rosegarden
[23:12] <iilh> *and has NOT been removed
[23:12] <Chaotic_Descent> sorry I just... can't handle ... complications... failure... of any kind.
[23:12] <travis> but i get a shadowed vertical line of about 10 px on a side of my monitor
[23:12] <ikonia> LinuxKitten: it's a daemon that needs starting, there should be an init script
[23:12] <Chaotic_Descent> I'm good. it's working. no problem. :S
[23:12] <linxeh> Chaotic_Descent: do you want anything in the latest version of your user dir ?
[23:12] <laplacianguy> hello guys
[23:12] <laplacianguy> does anyone of you knows how to determine the age of an installed system?
[23:13] <clintchance> fryguy-- im not sure. Do you have a website link?
[23:13] <travis> whenever something white falls into that line the entire display is shadowed
[23:13] <iilh> **all_generic_ide has NOT been removed, isn't it?
[23:13] <Fryguy--> clintchance: no
[23:13] <ikonia> iilh: I don't think it's been removed

[23:13] <LinuxKitten> i installed jack tools but i can't find it
[23:13] <travis> any idea why this hapend fryguy
[23:13] <linxeh> laplacianguy: you could check the oldest file on the system, or the kernel version (perhaps), or the OS version
[23:13] <ikonia> LinuxKitten: jack tools is not jack
[23:13] <alleand> fryguy--: it looks like i need to run the installation without having x server or any opengl on in the backround...not sure hos to explain it, but...like running the whole system in console mode
[23:13] <travis> any idea why this hapens fryguy?
[23:13] <Chaotic_Descent> huh... cp didn't copy hidden system files...
[23:13] <Fryguy--> travis: no
[23:13] <macrobad> SliMM: It depends on what you call "not working". Have you tried to log out and log in back?
[23:13] <LinuxKitten> how do i get jack
[23:13] <Overand> laplacianguy: look at the creation time for /etc
[23:13] <unop> Chaotic_Descent, man cp -- see what it says about -a
[23:13] <SliMM> macrobad: well, no, I haven't
[23:13] <clintchance> fryguy-- you say waht progs, xev and something else
[23:13] <clintchance> ?
[23:13] <Fryguy--> alleand: so stop your login manager, kill x, and run the script
[23:13] <linuxkrn> is there a way to grab the dmraid source with apt-get?
[23:14] <Fryguy--> clintchance: yes i did
[23:14] <ikonia> LinuxKitten: the package is jackd
[23:14] <macrobad> SliMM: Try it.
[23:14] <laplacianguy> Overand, the folder etc?
[23:14] <ikonia> LinuxKitten: apt-get source
[23:14] <Fryguy--> clintchance: xev and xmodmap
[23:14] <LinuxKitten> kk
[23:14] <linxeh> Chaotic_Descent: cp -R
[23:14] <travis> is it because of the grafics card or because of the monitor?
[23:14] <laplacianguy> linxeh, i don;t keep any old kernel..
[23:14] <ikonia> LinuxKitten: sorry
[23:14] <Fryguy--> travis: hard to say without looking at it
[23:14] <waltons_pacman> question: anyone good with graphic drivers for ubuntu 8.04 hardy? need hlp with a i945GM chipset
[23:14] <Chaotic_Descent> linxeh: no, I did that. that's not the problem.
[23:14] <ikonia> linuxkrn: apt-get source $package
[23:14] <Fryguy--> !anybody | waltons_pacman
[23:14] <travis> mmm
[23:14] <linxeh> Chaotic_Descent: -R will copy hidden files
[23:14] <macrobad> SliMM: In order to apply changes made to keyboard layout you may need to restart X server, that is log out and log in back
[23:14] <linuxkrn> ikonia: thanks
[23:14] <travis> shall i get a capture screen and upload it somewhere?
[23:14] <ikonia> waltons_pacman: the intel driver with xorg is fine for that card
[23:15] <Fryguy--> travis: if you want
[23:15] <Storrgie> ﻿I have a dvd playing on my laptop, but after about a minute of me not using it and letting it just play the sound and video starts jittering very badly, HELP!
[23:15] <Chaotic_Descent> unop: it's gibberish to me. I'm guessing I need to use the -a option? to me, archives are things like .rar and .zip.
[23:15] <LinuxKitten> i have jackd
[23:15] <ikonia> LinuxKitten: thats the daemon
[23:15] <travis> has ayone that specific grafics card installed ?
[23:15] <alleand> fryguy--: how do i run the script after using the code you gave me?
[23:15] <linxeh> Chaotic_Descent: you should read up on what archive means in unix land
[23:15] <LinuxKitten> so what's a client
[23:15] <Fryguy--> Chaotic_Descent: -a maintains file permissions as well as being recursive
[23:15] <ikonia> LinuxKitten: rosegarden
[23:15] <Fryguy--> alleand: same way you run any application...
[23:15] <Chaotic_Descent> ... oh... you mean -R isn't the same as -r? ... :S man didn't tell me that.
[23:15] <waltons_pacman> ikonia: but im only getting about 666fps with glxgears (as a baseline) and it seems slow to me when doing anything high end.
[23:15] <SliMM> macrobad: ok
[23:15] <Fryguy--> alleand: if it isn't in your path, you specify a relative path that will get you to the file
[23:15] <unop> Chaotic_Descent, if you did  cp oldir/* newdir/  -- then hidden files aren't copied as * globs all non-hidden files by default -- which is why you use -R without any globs.   cp -Rv oldir newdir
[23:16] <Overand> laplacianguy: look at the creation time for /etc
[23:16] <Overand> laplacianguy: yes
[23:16] <IndyGunFreak> Chaotic_Descent: everything is chase sensitive in cli
[23:16] <ikonia> waltons_pacman: it's an onboard video card
[23:16] <Overand> (sorry to repeat)
[23:16] <Storrgie> ﻿I have a dvd playing on my laptop, but after about a minute of me not using it and letting it just play the sound and video starts jittering very badly, HELP!
[23:16] <linxeh> Chaotic_Descent: an archive is just an exact replica of something. a .zip, .tar, .7z or whatever is an archive format that contains copies of things
[23:16] <Fryguy--> unop: pretty sure cp -a is what he needs
[23:16] <LinuxKitten> ikonia: it sez the jack server is down
[23:16] <ikonia> LinuxKitten: is jackd running ?
[23:16] <Fryguy--> unop: i don't have gnu cp on this machine so i can't look it up
[23:16] <LinuxKitten> ikonia: how do i get it up
[23:16] <unop> Fryguy--, -a implies -R
[23:16] <laplacianguy> i just have the modification time... not the creation..
[23:16] <spiderfire> is there a utility for safe cleaning?
[23:16] <alleand> fryguy--: okey, ill try it. tnx alot for the help
[23:16] <LinuxKitten> ikonia: how do i run it
[23:17] <ikonia> LinuxKitten: start it, there should be an init script as I said first time
[23:17] <Fryguy--> LinuxKitten: you isntall it, and use the init.d script if necessary
[23:17] <Chaotic_Descent> I know things are case sensitive, but the man doesn't actually say -r gives different results than -R. they're both listed together, with no description saying otherwise.
[23:17] <Reformer81> How do I install something with Wine and make it available to all local users?
[23:17] <Storrgie> ﻿I have a dvd playing on my laptop, but after about a minute of me not using it and letting it just play the sound and video starts jittering very badly, HELP!
[23:17] <waltons_pacman> ikonia: i know, my full question is stated in this forum: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5339711#post5339711
[23:17] <waltons_pacman> there are a few problems i have with it and Wine/WoW combination.
[23:17] <japheth> spiderfire: what do you mean by "safe cleaning"?
[23:17] <Dalila> http://globalnerdy.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/mac_unix_vista.jpg
[23:17] <__yy> Chaotic_Descent: -R and -r should do the same thing with cp
[23:18] <unop> Chaotic_Descent, -R and -r are the same thing
[23:18] <jm2k> amenado: i found the "ath_" drivers.
[23:18] <spiderfire> japheth: for system cleanup
[23:18] <Fryguy--> unop: pretty sure it implies -r plus a couple of other things
[23:18] <linuxkrn> ikonia: do I need something other than dpkg-dev to compile the package?
[23:18] <Mrevox12> Ok I am back. Perhaps you can help me with this one fry guy. I restarted my pc and hit Esc to enter the Grub menu and went through the recovery prompts and rebuilt my X config. Now im back to my normal resolution. But I am still not able to apply Advanced Graphics settings. Any help?
[23:18] <iilh> ikonia, yeah it's pretty impossible it has been removed.. or better, if ubuntu wants to be the distro with  the best hardware support ever, it must have that parameter.. ok, so i hope it will be fixed for the next release, or sooner.. thanks for support
[23:18] <ikonia> linuxkrn: all the deps
[23:18]  * DIL unop knows!
[23:18] <ikonia> waltons_pacman: force it to use the intel driver
[23:18] <Fryguy--> Mrevox12: look at how to get compositing working with fglrx on the wiki, pretty sure there's a pretty detailed article about how to do it
[23:19] <Mrevox12> Im not talking about compiz fuzion.
[23:19]  * Chaotic_Descent sighs, and apparently never understands anything.
[23:19] <ikonia> waltons_pacman: thats not an unreasonable framesper second count for an onboard card
[23:19] <Fryguy--> Mrevox12: i don't use ati, fglrx, or compositing, so i don't know how to help you (which i believe i've said to you a few times now..)
[23:19] <linxeh> on some OS cp -r and cp -R do different things
[23:19] <iilh> "the distro with  the best hardware support ever" Lol
[23:19] <iilh> :)
[23:19] <linuxkrn> ikonia: getting configure error that C compiler can't create executables...  that a livecd problem or a missing package. (sorry new to ubuntu but not building apps)
[23:19] <macrobad> laplacianguy: use 'stat /etc' to find out all the times
[23:19] <Mrevox12> Ahh. well thanks for the fore warning. we dont want any help with something no one knows about do we?
[23:20] <ikonia> linuxkrn: install gcc or the build-essential package
[23:20] <waltons_pacman> ikonia: any way you can think of off the top of your head to speed it up a bit? *dont say overclock*
[23:20] <iilh> i go, goodbye
[23:20] <leeping2007> __yy, if you're still here -- I think the problem was that I was using the wrong compiler.  Using ifort gives me less warnings.  Thanks
[23:20] <christos> hello there
[23:20] <ikonia> waltons_pacman: force it to use the "intel" driver is a good start
[23:20] <Chaotic_Descent> ... I really... can't do anything right... ever. because cp -Rv olduser newuser is doing the same crap of making newuser/olduser/ instead...

[23:21] <IndyGunFreak> jm2k: did you get atheros working
[23:22] <ikonia> waltons_pacman: in the device section where your video card is defined in /etc/X11/xorg.conf add Driver "Intel"
[23:22] <Chaotic_Descent> not only can I not understand for myself what to do correctly, I can't get the correct steps either..
[23:22] <Kovert> christos: use your p[ackage manager
[23:22] <unop> linxeh, why are you showing me a solaris manpage?
[23:22] <travis> Fryguy: i really need to solve this out. Can i give you any information wich could give you a clue about what's going on with that graphics cardÇ?
[23:22] <waltons_pacman> ﻿ikonia: pls wait for responce. will this require a restart of my X-session?
[23:22] <waltons_pacman> im thinking yes.
[23:22] <spiderfire> christos: it should ask when you visit a page with flash
[23:22] <Fryguy--> travis: i have no idea
[23:22] <ikonia> waltons_pacman: yes it will
[23:23] <travis> ikonia: can you help me?
[23:23] <Chaotic_Descent> why does cp -Rv olduser newuser make newuser/olduser instead of putting olduser/* (INCLUDING HIDDEN SYSTEM FILES) into newuser?
[23:23] <ikonia> travis: with what ?
[23:23] <jm2k> hmm not really, looking at this tutorial: http://www.stchman.com/ath_drv.html  -- but getting error "set KERNELPATH".
[23:23] <travis> ikonia: nvidia geforce 8600
[23:23] <travis> ikonia: i need to finetune it
[23:23] <ikonia> travis: in what way fine tune it ?
[23:23] <Pici> Chaotic_Descent: Are you trying to copy files or move/rename files?
[23:23] <jm2k> How to set KERNELPATH, anyone?
[23:24] <Storrgie> ﻿I have a dvd playing on my laptop, but after about a minute of me not using it and letting it just play the sound and video starts jittering very badly, HELP!
[23:24] <Chaotic_Descent> Pici: copy files. yes.
[23:24] <joey__> how do i make conky load with out a shell pomp ?
[23:24] <ikonia> jm2k: for what ?
[23:24] <Dr_willis> export KERNELPATH=Whatever/path/ya/need
[23:24] <Kovert> Storrgie: with all dvd's?
[23:24] <waltons_pacman> is it possible to restart the X-session without rebooting?
[23:24] <Storrgie> Kovert: actually with any media
[23:24] <ikonia> waltons_pacman: ctrl+alt+backsapce
[23:24] <ikonia> space
[23:24] <Chaotic_Descent> Pici: sudo cp -r olduser/* newuser; however, does not copy the hidden system files.
[23:24] <Fryguy--> waltons_pacman: ctrl-alt-backspace
[23:24] <Dr_willis> joey__,  add it to the gnome session manager perhaps? The conky homepage has lots of tips on its ussage with gnome and kde.
[23:24] <afallenhope> Hey I'm trying to install an app using apt-get but everytime I try to install it I get the following: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25805/
[23:24] <christos> ok  but the ubuntu what type o extesion  has have  (tar,tz,rpm, or yum)
[23:24] <jm2k> ikonia: installing madwifi for Atheros drivers --- error says to set kernelpath,
[23:25] <Kovert> Storrgie: how do you kniow it isnt the drive?
[23:25] <travis> ikonia: i am seeing a 10 px vertical shadowed line: everything white that falls into it makes the whole screen shadowed
[23:25] <Starnestommy> christos: .deb
[23:25] <Storrgie> Kovert: when i leave the machine alone for a little bit, it seems to want to go into a sleeping mode
[23:25] <gnomefreak> sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart :(
[23:25] <unop> Chaotic_Descent,  cp -r olduser/* newuser   and   cp -r olduser newuser  # do not do the same thing
[23:25] <Pici> Chaotic_Descent: do cp -r olduser newuser
[23:25] <TheStef> xdosemu worked with my application in 7.10 but the application doesnt start anymore after the update, does anyone have a solution?
[23:25] <Starnestommy> christos: if there's no .deb, look for a .tar, .tar.gz, or .tar.bz2
[23:25] <Kovert> Storrgie: so set the power management
[23:25] <ikonia> travis: never seen that before
[23:25] <travis> well
[23:26] <christos> ok taz.tz is ok
[23:26] <Chaotic_Descent> Pici: no. that creates newuser/olduser which is not what I want.
[23:26] <ernesto> i have a problem, i have no .asoundrc file, how do i create it?
[23:26] <macrobad> Chaotic_Descent: You'd really better use 'cp -R' instead of 'cp -r'!
[23:26] <yosho> hey, how do I get my menu bars back? The panels with date, menu, volume, etc applets?
[23:26] <christos> ok taz.gz is ok!
[23:26] <Storrgie> Kovert: i dont know what to set in power managerment
[23:26] <Chaotic_Descent> macrobad: ... I thought people just got finished telling me -R was the same as -r.
[23:26] <ProcrastinatoR> how can i et a list of pci devices ?
[23:26] <travis> ikonia: it happened with windows also, but the nvidia configuration tool provided with it perm
[23:26] <amenado> jm2k-> did that work?
[23:26] <Storrgie> Kovert: its not like the screen is dimming or something, its that the machine seems to want to scale down its processing
[23:26] <Kovert> Storrgie: you need to set the standby settings
[23:26] <travis> ikonia: had functions the linux one doesn't have
[23:26] <macrobad> Chaotic_Descent: It depends on your version of cp, actually.
[23:26] <Storrgie> Kovert: where would that be?
[23:26] <Fryguy--> !resetpanel | yosho
[23:27] <mmmiiikkkeee> I am about to order one of the dell xps M1330 laptops... anyone know if the "intel X3100" graphic card is good enough for compiz, or if it works well with compiz... vs the nvidia card?
[23:27] <travis> ikonia: wich helped me to finetune it first tiime
[23:27] <ikonia> travis: nvidia-settings
[23:27] <travis> ikonia: i know
[23:27] <travis> ikonia: im using it but it has fewer op'tions
[23:27] <waltons_pacman> ﻿ikona: didnt seem to affect, still running around 650 to 700 fps with glxgears.
[23:27] <Kovert> Storrgie: in the system setting but to be more specific I dotn knopw
[23:27] <jm2k> amenado: the tutorial ? nope, trying to fix error "Makefile.inc:91: *** KERNELCONF: /usr/src/madwifi-0.9.4/.config does not exist.."
[23:27] <waltons_pacman> ﻿ikona:i know this is a bad benchmark
[23:27] <ikonia> travis: it's a closed source driver it has limitations
[23:27] <travis> ikonia: i cant' "move" the screen disklplay vertically nor horizontally
[23:28] <waltons_pacman> ﻿ikona: going to go test in game changes. thanks for the time
[23:28] <TheStef> i have a problem with xdosemu after the upgrade to version 8.04, xdosemu starts but doest run my application
[23:28] <travis> ikonia: is there any tool that provides that function?
[23:28] <|Zippo|> TheStef: the problem with LOWRAM?
[23:28] <macrobad> mmmiiikkkeee: I have intel x3100, and it works nicely with compiz, although sometimes, really rarely, there are artifacts.
[23:28] <ernesto> i have a problem, i have no .asoundrc file, how do i create it?
[23:28] <ikonia> travis: not that I'm aware of, x/y axis can be set with xorg config file though
[23:28] <TheStef> @zippo nope
[23:28] <Storrgie> Kovert: i dont know if thats my issue, i dunno if i have ever set anything like that
[23:28] <travis> ikonia: how?
[23:28] <TheStef> i applied the workaround
[23:28] <TheStef> xdosemu starts
[23:28] <ikonia> travis: putting values in the display section

[23:29] <MrKennie> Can anyone help with kerberos+nfs4?
[23:29] <Storrgie> Kovert: dont think thats the issue though, any other suggestions?
[23:29] <Chaotic_Descent> no... no. I did sudo cp -Rv olduser newuser. capital @#$%ing R and it still doesn't work right.
[23:29] <|Zippo|> someone use bt headset with hardy? it's working but I get no sound on headset
[23:29] <glitsj16> afallenhope: what package are you trying to install exactly ? looking up 'mz' on packages.ubuntu.com lists several different apps .. and for your information, your paste shows you're using sudo command as root, no need for that
[23:29] <japheth> afallenhope: mz is not a package in any of the standard repos.  try apt-get install mzclient
[23:29] <travis> ikonia: thanks i'll look into the xorg man page
[23:29] <BenPa85> hello
[23:29] <Fryguy--> afallenhope: so it's not in the repositories anymore
[23:29] <Averros> Good Day all, I was wondering since I am new to Ubuntu what a good replacement for Windows Live Messenger is?
[23:29] <Chaotic_Descent> if you guys can't figure it out, how am I supposed to figure it out?
[23:29] <Kovert> Storrgie: well it coudl be a time base issue
[23:29] <ikonia> Averros: pidgin
[23:29] <TheStef> @averros Pidgin or amsn
[23:29] <Storrgie> Kovert: please explain
[23:30] <unop> Chaotic_Descent, lordie, that's not how cp works  -- to save you from the hassle of a why-that-is -- just do this.   rsync -av olduser newuser
[23:30] <Swish> should I avoid the cheesy reply and say "he said -good-"
[23:30] <Swish> ? :D
[23:30] <jm2k> amenado: wish there was a deb package :*( gtg but thanx for the help.

[23:30] <Dr_willis> !kde4
[23:30] <japheth> afallenhope: did that work?
[23:30] <travis> kde sucks!
[23:30] <Storrgie> Kovert: i could do that, but it sounds ridiculous
[23:30] <Storrgie> haha
[23:30] <jm2k> amenado: forum help looks promising, will try it. thanx.
[23:30] <BenPa85> ubottu: thx

[23:31] <ikonia> travis: try to express yourself a little better
[23:31] <christos> ok now its working Thanxs
[23:31] <afallenhope> mzclient is soemthign totally differnt
[23:31] <Chaotic_Descent> unop: ok, your command is making newuser/olduser... AGAIN...
[23:31] <waltons_pacman> ﻿ikona: no change to in game rendering. still white objects while indoors.
[23:32] <__yy> Chaotic_Descent: try this, from your new directory: 'find your/old/dir -maxdepth 1 -exec cp -R {} . \;'
[23:32] <ikonia> waltons_pacman: thats wine
[23:32] <Storrgie> Kovert: lets say that the frequency does change, what would be the next step?
[23:32] <unop> Chaotic_Descent, just delete newuser/olduser and runt he command again
[23:32] <unop> Chaotic_Descent, and don't place any /s after directories
[23:32] <japheth> afallenhope: in that case, perhaps the package you're looking for is no longer in the repos.  try typing apt-get install maz, then press tab a few times to get a list of packages starting with "mz" that you have
[23:32] <japheth> *have available to install
[23:32] <waltons_pacman> ﻿ikona: lovely
[23:33] <kheski> Does anyone know the command or link for installing the full KDE environment over my current gnome environment?
[23:33] <__yy> Chaotic_Descent: oops, make that -maxdepth 0, but same command otherwise
[23:33] <MrKennie> over?
[23:33] <ikonia> waltons_pacman: your making some big asks of a low power onboard card
[23:33] <afallenhope> japheth, it's called mz
[23:33] <travis> ikonia: sorry my english sucks
[23:33] <ikonia> travis: don't worry
[23:33] <waltons_pacman> ikonia: any hot-fixes you know of?
[23:33] <ikonia> waltons_pacman: are you now using the "intel" driver ?
[23:33] <Fryguy--> kheski: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&hs=cNz&q=ubuntu+install+kde&btnG=Search
[23:33] <japheth> afallenhope: then you must be missing a package entry in your sources list.  run apt-get update
[23:33] <carnero> exaile eq doesnt work!! what wrong?
[23:33] <mmmiiikkkeee> macrobad: thank you.  does it work good enough to do every thing without looking choppy.  my desktop has a nvidia card that gets a little choppy with wobbly windows and when i spin the 'cube'. I want to intel card since it has open drivers; but i want some thing that works too
[23:34] <mkargar>  I reinstall nvidia driver,but,since of restart system,kdm logen manager not runned and it return to commond line and showing this error:http://paste.ubuntu.com/25804/
[23:34] <kheski> Thanks fryguy, I guess I only installed minimal core.
[23:35] <waltons_pacman> ﻿ikona: yes i am, at least i placed Driver "intel" into the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
[23:35] <waltons_pacman> ﻿ikona: under the section where my video card is defined. other than that, i do not know how to check.
[23:35] <Bonejob> Anybody have a second to help with an upgrade problem?
[23:35] <macrobad> kheski: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop?
[23:35] <ikonia> waltons_pacman: seems a reasonable move
[23:35] <kheski> Macrobad, thank you.  I now have it.
[23:35] <carnero> hey thanks 4 the help
[23:35] <waltons_pacman> ﻿ikona: i hope so, you sugjested it. ^_^
[23:35] <ikonia> waltons_pacman: you may want to join  #xorg and ask about some of the advanced options for you driver, some specific parameters may assist
[23:35] <macrobad> kheski: Try sudo apt-get -s install kubuntu-desktop first to see what'll happen
[23:35] <Arnos> in the find command the ? matches only 1 character, right?
[23:36] <unop> right
[23:36] <waltons_pacman> ﻿ikona: thanks, you the man.
[23:36] <Arnos> thanks
[23:36] <kheski> macrobad, It's too late.  What does -s do?
[23:36] <ikonia> waltons_pacman: or man intel and look at the extra options
[23:36] <ikonia> waltons_pacman: I've had some good results out of it
[23:36] <japheth> Bonejob: perhaps you should just state the problem?
[23:36] <Bonejob> OK so I have a server runing Edgy (6.10) and I wanted to do "Do-Release-Upgrade" but it cant find the packages list in the sources.list (archive is no longer there) what are my options?
[23:36] <macrobad> kheski: it means 'simulate'
[23:36] <ikonia> waltons_pacman: fyi: I'm getting 950/1002 fps out of my card
[23:36] <waltons_pacman> ﻿ikona: man-ing the driver name? ill give it a shot
[23:36] <ikonia> waltons_pacman: it works
[23:36] <ikonia> waltons_pacman: all xorg drivers hasve a man page
[23:36] <waltons_pacman> ﻿ikona: whats your ram?
[23:37] <ikonia> 2gb
[23:37] <Kovert> Storrgie: then it woudl usually be a bad drive
[23:37] <ikonia> think the card has 128mb
[23:37] <waltons_pacman> ﻿ikona: im at 512 >.<
[23:37] <ikonia> waltons_pacman: thats a VERY big ask then
[23:37] <waltons_pacman> ﻿ikona: do you know how to find said xorg driver pages?
[23:37] <kheski> What is the most effective thorough and open Software firewall for Ubuntu available?
[23:37] <ikonia> waltons_pacman: man intel
[23:37] <waltons_pacman> ﻿ikona: i know. but i really dont want fps, i just want my toon to stop going completely white.
[23:38] <waltons_pacman> ﻿ikona: thanks for the consistant help.
[23:38] <Kovert> kheski: I like pfsence
[23:38] <eitreach> gedit crashes as root when I try to open and save files. Segfault. What do I do to fix it?
[23:38] <goldbond> so ubuntu is telling me the partition with the uid that corresponds to / does not exist
[23:38] <ikonia> waltons_pacman: it's a big ask though, you may need more ram to run, OS/wine layer/graphics card/and a game
[23:38] <goldbond> when i try to boot

[23:39] <boozy> Hi does anyone know why i cant access my desktop over gnome shared desktop on vnc viewer but my mac running leopard discovers the service and connects? It's running on the standard vnc port of 5900
[23:39] <kheski> Also I don't know if it's off topic.  But does anyone know how to install Linux on my Netgear router?
[23:39] <boozy> kheski: try dd-wrt
[23:40] <Kovert> kheski: why do you think it supports it?
[23:40] <travis> ikonia: would it be too much help if you indicate wich lines have i got to add to the xorg.conf in order to set the x/y acis on my display?
[23:40] <Fryguy--> kheski: netgear routers haven't been addressed by any of the open source firmwares because they are pretty closed source
[23:40] <travis> axis
[23:40] <thiefness> Excuse me but I just made a clean update from gutsy to hardy and now my conncetion speed is extremely slow, using the rt73usb driver, I tried serialmonkey's fix and to no avail. Can anyone help?
[23:40] <kheski> Fryguy, Kovert, I was unaware.
[23:40] <ikonia> travis: I can't remember them off the top of my head, it's something like xpostition 12000049, yposition 2392348023
[23:40] <glitsj16> goldbond: before replacing /etc/fstab completely, have you tried finding out the correct UUID (with sudi blkid) for that partiton and adjusting fstab ?
[23:40] <Chaotic_Descent> __yy: ... this is a joke, right? why is it every single command you people give me creates newuser/olduser ?
[23:40] <Kovert> kheski: there is one new one juts announ ced that does
[23:40] <q_a_z_steve> hey, so I've downloaded the nvidia drivers for my card, and when I want to run the file, it says it doesn't have a kernel interface built and exits every time! Help?
[23:40] <boozy> anyone know where to look in the config files for gnome's shared desktop? thanks
[23:41] <glitsj16> goldbond: typo sorry, sudo blkid will give you the UUId
[23:41] <kheski> Kovert, what is that?
[23:41] <Kovert> kheski: google netgear supports dd-wrt
[23:41] <Chaotic_Descent> I guess the complication of copying hidden system files from a user folder is just too advanced for me to be able to pull off.
[23:41] <travis> q_a_z_steve: there are kernel specifric modules for nvidia dirvers synaptic should install them along with the nvidia driver
[23:41] <__yy> Chaotic_Descent: we hate you
[23:41] <macrobad> mmmiiikkkeee: Well, I don't have wobly windows, neither I use a 3D cube. From what I can say, it works flawlessly most of the time, without any glitches whatsoever. However, couple time during the X server startup my screen got covered with rubbish for a second or two, and then fixed itself. I've been using this machine for three weeks now exclusively in Ubuntu. Also, there was another bug in a 3D game, whose name I cannot remember: that time it
[23:41] <Kovert> kheski: go buy a linksys WRT54GL
[23:42] <kheski> I might when I have money.
[23:42] <thiefness> Can anyone help with my wireless dilemma?
[23:42] <Fryguy--> !anyone | thiefness

[23:42] <Kovert> kheski: rob a bank?
[23:42] <thiefness> Fryguy--: i did and no one answered
[23:43] <Onebeer> anyone know why everytime I install a package; I get messages like: WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated!
[23:43] <waltons_pacman> Ikonia:  intel supports the {cut out irrelavent} 945GM chipset. however, i did find some random blurb online about mesa not being a hardware render, but a software render. think this could be it?
[23:43] <Fryguy--> thiefness: then nobody knows, or they missed it and you should repeat.  asking metaquestions isn't going to help you at all
[23:43] <Kovert> Onebeer: learn how to authenticate your souces
[23:43] <unop> Chaotic_Descent,  did you use the rsync command?
[23:43] <travis> q_a_z_steve: because you havent got the nvidia kernel module installed
[23:43] <unop> i guess not
[23:43] <Reformer81> Onebeer: It means you're trying to install packages that are not a part of the Ubuntu repositories.  They are essentially third party apps that cannot be verified as safe and virus free.
[23:43] <Fryguy--> waltons_pacman: if you are using mesa, you aren't using the proper drivers
[23:43] <ikonia> waltons_pacman: possibly, hence why I said you'll want more ram
[23:43] <Onebeer> ok thanks
[23:43] <novak> could I install envy on ubuntu 8.04?
[23:44] <Fryguy--> !envy | novak
[23:44] <Chaotic_Descent> unop: uh... no. I don't recall that command.
[23:44] <q_a_z_steve> travis: is that the .run file from nvidia.com?
[23:44] <thiefness> Excuse me but I just made a clean update from gutsy to hardy and now my connection speed is extremely slow, using the rt73usb wireless driver, I tried serialmonkey's fix and to no avail.
[23:44] <mmmiiikkkeee> macrobad: thank you so much!
[23:44] <waltons_pacman> fryguy: thats what ive been basing this entire conversation on, thanks for the backup. :-D
[23:44] <unop> Chaotic_Descent,  rsync -av  olduser newuser

[23:44] <unop> Chaotic_Descent, sudo as needed

[23:44] <ikonia> waltons_pacman: ok
[23:44] <travis> q_a_z_steve: the easiest way to do it is using the builtn in installer
[23:44] <Reformer81> !multimedia | IMANOOB
[23:44] <Chaotic_Descent> unop: oh right. that rsync command. yeah. it doesn't work.
[23:44] <novak> Fryguy--: what can I do ?
[23:45] <Reformer81> ooh... that's outdated.
[23:45] <q_a_z_steve> travis: you mean synaptic?
[23:45] <travis> q_a_z_steve: synaptic should find all the dependencies for you
[23:45] <Fryguy--> novak: i already told you i don't know.  why ask me again
[23:45] <unop> Chaotic_Descent, it does not work is vague - what does it not do?
[23:45] <novak> i don't find the envy packs
[23:45] <novak> ok, Fryguy--
[23:45] <IMANOOB> i know that but it gives me an error
[23:45] <novak> sorry
[23:45] <Chaotic_Descent> unop: it creates newuser/olduser, like every command does.
[23:45] <q_a_z_steve> travis: ok well then what can I uninstall and then what should I look for to reinstall?
[23:45] <Reformer81> How do I install something with Wine and make it available to all local users?
[23:45] <waltons_pacman> fryguy: do you know how to get it so i am using the correct drivers?
[23:45] <waltons_pacman> i use a intel i945GM chipset, current driver is the defaulted one supplied by intel.
[23:45] <Luig1> Ok, so I've been spending some more time on Wikipedia with my free time, and I've decided that I want to install *all* possible UTF-8 characters. Yes, every character for every filled codepoint. How do I go about this efficiently?
[23:45] <Fryguy--> waltons_pacman: what card
[23:45] <travis> nvidia in synaptic
[23:45] <Fryguy--> waltons_pacman: intel driver
[23:45] <IMANOOB> !multimedia
[23:45] <novak> i wanto to install my video card by envy
[23:45] <eitreach> gedit crashes as root when I try to open and save files. Segfault. What do I do to fix it?
[23:45] <Fryguy--> waltons_pacman: you are probably using vesa or something
[23:46] <novak> by envy is more easy to install video cards
[23:46] <travis> choose the drivers, then synaptic should point you for all the files needed
[23:46] <ikonia> !envy | novak
[23:46] <q_a_z_steve> travis: btw the sole purpose of this is to have a laptop screen show 1280x800 and an external display show 800x600 with a good refresh rate so as to not wigg out the screen.
[23:46] <Fryguy--> !universe | novak
[23:46] <travis> at least it did for me
[23:46] <macrobad> eitreach: How do roots crash?
[23:46] <IMANOOB> how do i get video playback to work? gives me this error Could not read from resource.
[23:46] <macrobad> :)
[23:46] <travis> so you may need twinview or xinerama also
[23:46] <Fryguy--> IMANOOB: what _specifically_ are you doing
[23:47] <waltons_pacman> fryguy: other than the line in /etc/X11/xorg.conf "driver 'intel' " how do i check to see what i am using? terminal prompt is .....?
[23:47] <travis> i tried that on a presario laptop and i failed to do it properly
[23:47] <Fryguy--> waltons_pacman: /var/log for Xorg.log and make sure it got loaded right
[23:47] <IMANOOB> fryguy i put a movie in and totem come up then give me that error
[23:47] <ikonia> waltons_pacman: you can ee it in your xorg log file
[23:47] <macrobad> eitreach: If i were you, I'd reinstall gedit.
[23:47] <q_a_z_steve> travis: xinerama... to me?
[23:47] <eitreach> macrobad: eh? Root doesn't crash, gedit does, when run as root.
[23:47] <Fryguy--> IMANOOB: try using mplayer
[23:47] <eitreach> macrobad: did that. purged as well.
[23:47] <IMANOOB> fryguy nothing els notices therees a dvd in
[23:47] <travis> q_a_z_steve: i thinks it is a must for dual screen display
[23:47] <acce245> Question:  How do I change Default PCM sample rate to be 48000 rather than 41000, and if it is software based, what piece of software would manage it, and how do I go about it?
[23:47] <Luig1> Also, why doesn't sound work in anything but the 'Sound' preferences menu?
[23:48] <Chaotic_Descent> I'm going to give this a few more minutes, but I've already wasted a colossal amount of time on the simplest of things: trying to change it so my username (which seems to be broadcast on IRC, hurray!)
[23:48] <IMANOOB> fryguy tryed alots of diferant movies
[23:48] <Fryguy--> IMANOOB: well that's probably the problem then lol
[23:48] <thiefness> Excuse me but I just made a clean update from gutsy to hardy and now my connection speed is extremely slow, using the rt73usb wireless driver, I tried serialmonkey's fix and to no avail. Need help, otherwise I will have to go back to dreaded windows :(
[23:48] <Luig1> Well, come to think of it, it doesn't work there either
[23:48] <q_a_z_steve> travis: I had gandr or something?
[23:48] <waltons_pacman> fryguy: inside the /var/log directory, what exactly am i looking for? im still very new at this.
[23:48] <Fryguy--> IMANOOB: make sure permissions are right for reading from the dvd drive, etc
[23:48] <|seb|> where set hostname ?
[23:48] <Fryguy--> waltons_pacman: Xorg.log or Xorg.0.log
[23:48] <Chaotic_Descent> nah. I'm done. I tried the -a option, thinking that would work on hidden system files. no luck.
[23:48] <Fryguy--> |seb|: /etc/hostname
[23:48] <jamus> howdy, what is ubuntu default usb dir(tryng to make bootable usb)
[23:48] <IMANOOB> fryguy how do i do that
[23:48] <travis> q_a_z_steve: xrandr didnt did the trick for me
[23:48] <Fryguy--> |seb|: make sure you edit /etc/hosts to match
[23:48] <Fryguy--> IMANOOB: no idea
[23:48] <q_a_z_steve> travis: so how do I find the nvidia package I need for the GeForce Go 7400
[23:48] <waltons_pacman> ﻿fryguy: got them both, which to look at, and what line
[23:49] <Luig1> So, basically, why won't sound work for me? I reinstalled my system recently, and it worked before. It's an Intel board with Intel sound.
[23:49] <Fryguy--> waltons_pacman: first one, pastebin the whole thing
[23:49] <macrobad> eitreach: Does it always crash when you open files? How do you verify it crashes on saving as well, if you cannot open it?
[23:49] <IMANOOB> fryguy lmfao could it be my vidcard im on a laptop
[23:49] <Chaotic_Descent> apparently hidden system files are permanently connected to the folder name they're in.
[23:49] <Fryguy--> IMANOOB: no
[23:49] <travis> q_a_z_steve: uninstall everything and look for it in synaptic
[23:49] <waltons_pacman> fryguy: pastebin?
[23:49] <waltons_pacman> <------Nooblet
[23:49] <|seb|> Fryguy--: thanks
[23:49] <Fryguy--> !pastebin | waltons_pacman
[23:49] <IMANOOB> fryguy ubuntu ultimate 8.04 or we
[23:49] <q_a_z_steve> travis: grandr seems really cool, it's just I don't have a clue how to use it.
[23:49] <eitreach> macrobad: sudo gedit from a terminal, when I open or try to save a file, it crashes with Segfault.
[23:49] <ikonia> IMANOOB: ubuntu ultimate is not an ubuntu product and not supported here
[23:50] <Fryguy--> IMANOOB: this is channel for ubuntu support, not ubuntu ultimate
[23:50] <unop> Chaotic_Descent, no way are you using rsync the right way -- http://pastebin.com/d1e802e7e
[23:50] <travis> q_a_z_steve: the configuration of grandr wont work if you dont have the drivers properly installed first
[23:50] <daemon3> Is there a way to use a special character (heat, etc) by using the charcter code?  Copying doesn't seem to work.
[23:50] <acce245> Can no one help me?
[23:50] <IMANOOB> ohh hum im confused
[23:50] <Fryguy--> !anyone | acce245
[23:50] <ikonia> acce245: what was the question
[23:50] <Lns> HOW can you tell you have to reboot Ubuntu after package upgrades via the shell?
[23:50] <Fryguy--> Lns: shutdown -r now
[23:50] <macrobad> eitreach: So, you mean it ALWAYS crashes whatever you try to open and wherever you try to save?
[23:51] <acce245> The question was: how do I change PCM Sample rate?
[23:51] <Lns> Fryguy--, no - i mean how can you tell if you HAVE to ?
[23:51] <jamus> howdy, what is ubuntu default usb dir(tryng to make bootable usb)
[23:51] <Fryguy--> Lns: you pretty much never do
[23:51] <eitreach> macrobad: yes, as I wrote in my initial question: "gedit crashes as root when I try to open and save files. Segfault. What do I do to fix it?"
[23:51] <Fryguy--> Lns: apt will tell you
[23:51] <Lns> Fryguy--, ala "You must restart your computer" dialog in update mgr
[23:51] <glitsj16> eitrach: have you tried using "gksu gedit" instead of sudo yet ?
[23:51] <q_a_z_steve> travis: PM for a moment? chan is going fast, 800x600 screen not so friendly.
[23:51] <Fryguy--> eitreach: delete any gedit settings in /root/
[23:51] <Lns> Fryguy--, apt will? it hasn't in the past..
[23:51] <Fryguy--> Lns: sure you read it thoroughly?
[23:51] <thiefness> Excuse me but I just made a clean update from gutsy to hardy and now my connection speed is extremely slow, using the rt73usb wireless driver, I tried serialmonkey's script and to no avail. Need help, otherwise I will have to go back to dreaded windows :(
[23:51] <Lns> is there a cmdline option to see via apt?
[23:51] <unop> Chaotic_Descent, to demonstrate it with hidden files - http://pastebin.com/d36def5a8
[23:51] <spiderfire> why is firefox cut and paste very windows ish
[23:51] <waltons_pacman> fryguy: ok i lied, only have Xorg.0.log pastebin comming.
[23:51] <Lns> Fryguy--, yeah..it never tells me after upgrading via apt-get upgrade/dist-upgrade
[23:51] <Chaotic_Descent> you never told me to use a / after the username.
[23:52] <Fryguy--> Lns: you can also just look at a list of the packages it updated.  you only need to reboot for kernels and kernel-level drivers
[23:52] <ikonia> thiefness: what speed does iwconfig show you connecting as
[23:52] <acce245> Or do I need to be in a different channel to get answers on PCM?
[23:52] <thiefness> 54 mb/s
[23:52] <Tepps> The GUI doesn't display when I try to boot into Ubuntu (all I get is the CLI (and I have tried "startx", which has given me errors: "Fatal server error: no screens found")).
[23:52] <Lns> Fryguy--, thank you.. was just wondering if there was a file to check or something to see if it's required..
[23:52] <ikonia> acce245: I don't actually know to be honest
[23:52] <Gregmond> lns: if the system wants you to restart it, there will be an icon on the top bar
[23:52] <Fryguy--> Lns: no idea
[23:52] <ikonia> thiefness: ok, so your connected at a good speed,
[23:52] <acce245> I see.
[23:52] <Lns> Gregmond, i mean via the shell
[23:52] <Fryguy--> Gregmond: he's talking about gui, if you paid attention to the whole context of his responses
[23:52] <macrobad> eitreach: Have you tried to open the same file, gedit crashes upon, with another editor? What about using it under a normal account?
[23:53] <Fryguy--> Gregmond: *cli
[23:53] <Lns> I manage 8 servers so its hard to VNC into each one after upgrading via apt/ssh
[23:53] <thiefness> ikonia: originally when i checked the connection information it said 2 mb/s so i did sudo iwconfig wlan0 rate 54M and reconnected, and now it says 54 MB/s but no change in speed
[23:53] <ikonia> Lns: apt-get update && shudown -r now
[23:53] <Lns> ikonia, lol..thx but that's not what i'm looking for
[23:53] <ikonia> Lns: sorry, miss-understood then
[23:53] <waltons_pacman> fryguy: http://paste.ubuntu.com/25810/
[23:53] <Lns> its ok :)
[23:54] <Aquina> hy!
[23:54] <eitreach> Fryguy--: there are none.
[23:54] <greg_universe> how do you delete a non-empty directory?
[23:54] <__yy> greg_universe: rm -rf dirname
[23:54] <Lns> greg_universe, rm -rf <dirname)
[23:54] <unop> Chaotic_Descent, just use the tab-completion feature of bash -- and it takes (or tries its best to) care of these pitfalls
[23:54] <Fryguy--> eitreach: there is, make sure to look at hidden files
[23:54] <__yy> Chaotic_Descent: you stil having trouble copying?
[23:54] <Chaotic_Descent> unop: yup. the simple step of adding a / after the folder name seems to make rsync work. I don't know if that would work for the cp commands as well, but...
[23:54] <eitreach> Fryguy--: of course I do. There are none. Want a directory listning and screenshot to prove it?
[23:55] <Fryguy--> eitreach: that is unnecessary
[23:55] <goldbond> glitsj16: here is my fstab, do you see what could be wrong? http://dpaste.com/61239
[23:55] <jamus>  what is ubuntu default usb dir ?(tryng to make bootable usb)--- sorry for naggin
[23:55] <q_a_z_steve> travis: should I use envyng?
[23:55] <greg_universe> ty
[23:55] <goldbond> glitsj16: the uids from the command you showed me matched the file
[23:55] <tim167> hi i want to sync Evolution to my google calendar , is that possible ?
[23:55] <glitsj16> goldbond: i'll take a look at that, hang on
[23:55] <filth666__> hey
[23:55] <unop> Chaotic_Descent, no, cp does not work that way -- as the manpage should say .. cp SRC DST .. copies SRC to DST (into DST really unless it already exists)
[23:56] <tim167> i tried installing syncevolution with synaptic but it says "libedataserver not installable"
[23:56] <Storrgie> i had a graphical tool for mounting devices
[23:56] <Storrgie> anyone else use it? i dont remember the name
[23:56] <macrobad> Lns: I believe, it tells you to restart the system only after the kernel is upgraded, and in couple more cases. So, you might try to write a script that would fetch the update list, and perform the update: if it the kernel is upgraded, restart the system.
[23:56] <WebcamWonder> Storrgie: gmount-iso
[23:56] <ubunubi> psydm?
[23:56] <Fryguy--> waltons_pacman: don't know about intel, but something is up with your card/configuration something.  the intel driver isn't getting loaded correctly
[23:56] <Chaotic_Descent> unop: but cp source is different than cp source/*. does that mean cp source/ is treated the same as cp source?
[23:56] <Storrgie> WebcamWonder: it started with system
[23:57] <Fryguy--> waltons_pacman: don't really have anything else to add though, sorry
[23:57] <giacomo_casanova> hey there, anyone available for a little help? (display problems with 8.04 on a g3 iBook)
[23:57] <Fryguy--> Chaotic_Descent: yes
[23:57] <WebcamWonder> Storrgie: mounting local harddisks or iso?
[23:57] <ShadowBelmolve> anyone can help? my ubuntu is mute >.<, i tryed alsa, pulseaudio and jackd, but anyone function, jackd says alsa is in use =/
[23:57] <travis> q_a_z_steve: it should find the appropiate driver for your nvidia videocard
[23:57] <novak> !volume
[23:57] <Lns> macrobad, thank you...It would be nice if apt had that functionality. I bet it does, and i'm just missing something
[23:57] <novak> !sound
[23:57] <waltons_pacman> Fryguy--: awsome man, youve given me a direction! whoop!
[23:57] <waltons_pacman> Fryguy--: ps thanks for the hlp
[23:57] <Storrgie> WebcamWonder: mounting local harddisks
[23:57] <thiefness> Excuse me but I just made a clean update from gutsy to hardy and now my connection speed is extremely slow, using the rt73usb wireless driver, I tried serialmonkey's script and to no avail. Need help, otherwise I will have to go back to dreaded windows, originally when I connected to my network the connection info said 2 mb/s , i ran iwconfig wlan0 rate 54M, then i restarted and it says 54 mb/s but it not any faster
[23:58] <Fryguy--> waltons_pacman: take a look at your bios settings maybe.  Those errors are pretty weird
[23:58] <WebcamWonder> Storrgie: got no clue, sorry
[23:58] <waltons_pacman> Fryguy--: any ideas on where to look next?
[23:58] <goldbond> glitsj16: intrestingly, when i "sudo mount -a" from the live cd with the new fstab nothing happens
[23:58] <waltons_pacman> Fryguy--: awesome, something original.
[23:58] <Chaotic_Descent> ok. well it's working. and that was a nightmare I hope I never have to go through something similar again.
[23:58] <ikonia> thiefness: the sad thing is your using a bad driver/card the reasons could be plenty
[23:58] <unop> Chaotic_Descent, you have to understand what  source/* means -- bash treats this as a wildcard meaning everything in source that is _not hidden_ (by default atleast)
[23:58] <macrobad> Lns: I'd be interested to see how to do it with apt too.
[23:58] <Chaotic_Descent> thanks for the command, unop.
[23:58] <Lns> macrobad,  :)
[23:58] <ShadowBelmolve> anyone can help me?
[23:58] <geoff_> whats up with virtualbox? i installed via apt-get and now if i try to mount an iso the app freezes?
[23:58] <Fryguy--> !anyone | ShadowBelmolve
[23:59] <thiefness> ikonia: it worked fine in gutsy :( i downloaded the update at over 1000 kb/s
[23:59] <Fryguy--> geoff_: #vbox
[23:59] <ikonia> thiefness: your not using gutsy any more
[23:59] <ShadowBelmolve> Fryguy--, i have sayed my quesiton =/
[23:59] <Chaotic_Descent> well, my 15 minutes is up. I gotta go do real life stuff, which should be a refreshing change of pace from this.
[23:59] <unop> Chaotic_Descent, so if you had a command like .  cp source/* dest  -- bash actually will compile a command that says this.   cp source/a source/b source/c source/etc dest
[23:59] <Lns> macrobad, for instance - i just upgraded 7 servers' kernel modules, and wasn't sure if i should reboot - turns out i don't have to, but if i don't have vnc access, it'd be nice to know if i should
[23:59] <eitreach> gedit crashes as root when I try to open and save files. Segfault. What do I do to fix it?
[23:59] <jamus> how do i  make bootable usb in ubuntu (command) ?
[23:59] <Fryguy--> ShadowBelmolve: so repeat the question, not some metaquestion
[23:59] <Miguel> hi
