[00:00] alec: Is any of this making sense to ya? [00:00] ikonia: So what am I supposed to >do OUTOFRETIREMENT, yes.. you do need to.. and then you need to set the res right... compiz does NOT adjust your res. or other X configs like that. [00:00] #United-Movies [00:00] OUTOFRETIREMENT, some nvidia cards just do not get their default res properly when using the nvidia drivers. [00:01] Dre1: read the guides I've sent you to understand your system and learn how to use them [00:01] when i enable it it only gives me an option of 600x800 [00:01] Dre1: they are good guides, you don't have to read page by page, just use it as a guide [00:01] without it gives a way better resolution [00:01] Dre1: the 3 combined should give you a good grounding, for which you can then ask specific questions [00:02] bobertdos: not really. i dont really know what im doing [00:02] OUTOFRETIREMENT, you enable the drivers, you run the 'nvidia-settings' tool as root, and you 'tweak' the settings to use the proper res. [00:02] OUTOFRETIREMENT, THEN you start messing with compiz [00:02] #wormux.org [00:02] alec: Feel free to PM me if you want, it's up to you. [00:02] isor: lotsa lag today on my end. still about, isor? [00:03] Firefishe, yes did you comment out all the savedefault lines [00:03] ok let me try [00:03] isor: no, not yet.

That's not what I'm here for. I would like to accomplish a task, something that, since Apple I was constructed, computers have been designed to do. I would like to configure a network. The current one, titled Windows Network, does not allow me to change any settings. I need to be able to change settings, such as setting static IPs and viewin [00:05] stesso problema anche con altra tastiera [00:05] can someone help me? [00:05] i need to edit the config file for the drivers but i need the refresh rate hertz [00:05] it makes it nearly impossible to type [00:05] Jimshoe02: You spilt something on it? [00:05] ikonia, how do i setup apache to work with php as i installed them separatly, basically how do i test that its working? [00:05] Dre1: so read the guides [00:05] sometimes ittttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt happens and other times it is fine [00:05] isor: I'll be careful to write a line or two on this box so the 'net cafe doesn't reset me. [00:05] no brand new [00:06] Baby_Shambl3s: put a php file in the /var/www directory, and browse http://localhost in your browser [00:06] ikonia: The guides have information on how to configure a network in Windows. I do not run Windows. I run Ubuntu. Why don't you read the guides instead of harassing me? [00:06] Jimshoe02, have you rebooted since installing it? [00:06] this happened on my other computter with ubuntu [00:06] yes [00:06] ikonia, ok [00:06] several times [00:06] Dre1: you've not read the guide - they don't show how to configure a network in windows [00:06] has somebody recently done a network or alternate installation of 8.04.1? [00:06] Dre1: why would an official ubuntu guide show you how to configure a network in windows ? [00:06] Dre1: they explain the networking setup of ubuntu [00:07] Dre1: if your going to setup a network you need to know the basics [00:07] ikonia: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/windows/C/preparing-settings-network.html [00:07] cmd.exe is not a Linux file. [00:07] how do i install a style theme in kubuntu? [00:07] ikonia: If you're going to recommend a guide you need to know what it says. === gardar is now known as gardar`afk [00:07] Dre1: I know exactly what they say [00:07] ikonia what do u nees [00:07] Dre1: your NOT reading the text [00:07] ikonia: You obviously have proven yourself wrong, sir. [00:07] my ubuntu has repeatedly frozen after trying to connect to a wirelesssss router [00:08] Dre1: I'm not the one trying to setup a wirless network on a non-wirless network PC [00:08] Dre1: the guide shows you how to setup networking in ubuntu - not windows [00:08] isor...rebooting now [00:08] i had to reboot and now the keyboaaaaaaaard is messed up [00:08] Firefishe, k [00:08] isor: I really do appreciate the assistance today. Thank you very much :) [00:08] hi there could anyone answer me a little question about moving to uBuntu from WinXP :3 [00:08] Dre1: your reading the bit that shows you how to interact windows with ubuntu - hence why your not reading it, just looking at commands, as you where doing with your other guide, look at the commands but don't read the text gets you no-where [00:08] Firefishe, no prob [00:09] .. [00:09] Mraks: just ask thequestion, you'll get answers i'm sure === ubuntu is now known as ubuntu_de [00:09] Dre1: that guide is showing you how to get your windows networking setup from your windows boxex so you can THEN configure your ubuntu boxes with the correct settings, READ the text [00:09] ok i want to install uBuntu but to leave dualboot so i can use both winXP and ubuntu... are there chances that my data might suffer [00:09] Dre1: let me quote it for you in plain english, direct from the page [00:09] mraks, no [00:09] Dre1: " Follow the instructions below to obtain a copy of the network settings which you may need: " [00:10] StormX2: have you ever heard of this problem [00:10] Dre1: so you have just "proved yourself wrong" [00:10] so it's safe? thank you ! [00:10] Mraks, not if u already have 2 partions and you dont format the wrong one [00:10] ok:D [00:10] Jimshoe02: Fraid not, sorry. [00:10] Maybe post on ubuntuforums.org? [00:10] hi does anyone know why i'm not receiving any signal on mythtv [00:10] mraks, the only way you can hose your data is by overwriting the windows partition [00:10] I spent plenty anights way to drunk to be messign with my computer and nuked the wrong HD :( [00:10] isor: Apparently, that did it. It's booting normally now. Still, I'd like to know what that line does and if it will have long-term consequences or not. [00:10] ikonia: I've read the information. It's really great and helpful, but I STILL CANNOT INTERACT WITH THE CURRENT NETWORK. IT IS A WINDOWS NETWORK. [00:10] i have isos and wen i try to extract them it says [as an error]: CD-ROM is NOT in ISO 9660 format [00:10] mraks, you'll want to make an empty partition in Windows before you start, in my opinion [00:10] what all do I need to build drivers on ubuntu-server? build-essential, linux-kernel-headers, and what else? [00:11] Dre1: read the guides [00:11] Drel, please don't use all caps [00:11] mt [00:11] ack [00:11] allright, thank you very much :* :* :* [00:11] Firefishe, reads saved default settings [00:11] ikonia: I have. [00:11] hh [00:11] Dre1: you've clearly not read the guides, just skim through them and they will explain a.) the information you need to setup your network b.) how to apply it, then you can ask specific questions [00:11] Dre1: you've not - you've just ranted at me for giving you a windows guide, which proves you've not read it [00:11] sudo apt-get remove ikonia [00:12] isor: ah, I guess I can do without it; not really imperative. [00:12] Firefishe, shouldn't cause any probs [00:12] ikonia: Just because you cannot understand my question, it does not mean that my question is nonsensical.\ [00:12] I'm setting up Warcraft III to work under wine, and the Wine AppDB page tells me I need to "Add a default gateway OR Route 255.255.255.255 to your local network" Can someone give me a description of how to do this? [00:13] Dre1: no-one said it was [00:13] Dre1: I totally understand your question, thats why I've gone to the trouble of giving you links I think will help you [00:13] Anyone know what version of Ubuntu I should download to install under VMware Fusion on my Intel 2.4C2D iMac. Just the regular desktop version or AMD64bit? [00:13] isor: so nice to see those three people in a circle staring up at me again ;) [00:13] ikonia: So what you're saying is, you don't know the answer.

[00:21] so, would it overright 7.10? [00:21] and a very bad one IMHO, do yourself a favour and just use Synaptic [00:22] HymnToLife: I was gonna say it would be similar to synaptic? [00:22] ikonia, the module is already enabled [00:22] Stormx2: sure I can and I sorta just did... the bot is my friend [00:22] well, it does the same tasks [00:22] or at least, it is supposed to [00:22] Baby_Shambl3s: great news, "sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart" [00:22] but it's very unintuitive imo [00:22] Baby_Shambl3s: almost ther [00:22] there [00:22] Can someone tell me how to route 255.255.255.255 to my local network?

But I can only see 3 of them in nvidia-settings is there a reason about this limitation ? please [00:23] ikonia, done [00:23] yeah adept isn't very UI for sure [00:23] Baby_Shambl3s: ok what is the name of the php file you dropped into /var/www ? [00:23] mynetdude: you can install it in your Kubuntu too, just apt-get install synaptic [00:23] isor: referencing the above: did you get your white screen figured out. When/Where is it going white? [00:23] mynetdude, investigate the bot in PM, not the channel [00:23] ikonia, mysite.php [00:23] Baby_Shambl3s: try to visit it now [00:23] Keaton: 255.255.255.255 would be a subnet mask... I'm pretty sure you can't route that except as a multicast type of address [00:23] HymnToLife: I think kubuntu uses whatever is in my file system? all it is a desktop afterall [00:24] c01100011 cat /dev/usb/hiddev0 [00:24] Stormx2: so now you're the cop around here?

I'm looking at the wine AppDB entry for Warcraft III, and in order to play a LAN game, I need to open a certain port and "Add a default gateway OR Route 255.255.255.255 to your local network" [00:25] HymnToLife: cool :) [00:25] ikonia, <% response.write("Hello World!") %> which is better than before i guess its cause this was intended for asp will look for a quick helo world for php [00:25] or more accurately, Kubuntu is a variant of Ubuntu that comes with the KDE desktop environment by default [00:25] !msgthebot | mynetdude looks like you'll have to put ubottu on ignore too, yeah?

[00:26] in a directory [00:26] ikonia: what is the command to use the bot? [00:26] really? [00:26] Keaton: usually... that's how you go about it... you set the IP for your default gateway to be the IP of your router [00:26] I need to run some old program in 8.04, so I must set the LD_ASSUME_KERENL [00:26] !hi [00:26] Hi!

Log out of GNOME, then back in. :) [00:44] JoshuaP0x, do you have all the visuals enabled [00:44] joshuap0x is that a thinkpad t42? [00:44] razorsharpmonkey: the only two fireqalls i know is firestarter and ufw both are easy to sue and well documented except one is cli and the other has gui [00:44] No and Yes [00:44] osxdude: In the FreeMind window there are scrollbars for vertically and horisontally scrolling. If I scroll to the top and to the left, I can't see my map. I have to scroll a page to the right and down before it appears. So I want to move the map...

[00:44] no, I dont have the visuals enabled and yes It's a stinkpad T42 [00:44] razorsharpmonkey: however do you really need a firewall? [00:44] does one not come on the dvd of ubuntu? [00:44] Its not gnome [00:44] Shaba1: Note: This will remove whatever gnome settings you have. Source: http://www.celsius1414.com/node/878 [00:44] I am using xubuntu [00:44] ohhh [00:45] but there is never anyone at the keys in that channel [00:45] needhelp, lemme load freemind [00:45] so I come here [00:45] razorsharpmonkey: ufw is a standard firewall that comes disabled with ubuntu 8.04 [00:45] gui? [00:45] Shaba1: thats not true, and thats also not the reasonability of an ubuntu support channel to help you install vista [00:45] and how do i enable it [00:45] osxdude: k [00:46] q [00:46] in gnome i enabled the cube desktop now the transparent menu bars has a shadowed/buttonized border how can i disable this or make it back to transparent? [00:46] I did not ask about vista ikonia?

[00:48] Jpratt: is your card setup and working, is it configured for the right network ? [00:48] I lost the botton and top panels when I powered off how do I get them back? [00:48] any ideas? [00:48] !pannel | Shaba1 [00:48] Sorry, I don't know anything about pannel [00:48] razorsharpmonkey: to enable it just type sudo ufw enable, but you should read the man pages on it [00:48] razorsharpmonkey: I use FireStarter Firewall, works very well. [00:48] it's driving me a little nutts [00:48] Shaba1: there is a factoid on that, hang on [00:48] JoshuaP0x: what kind of video card you using?

[00:53] so I can hardly find ~/.config [00:53] himmm [00:53] mynyml: what ip address are you giving your self [00:54] all I have listed in that home directory is brenda [00:54] Shaba1: "/home/username/.config/ [00:54] and under that Desktop and pdf [00:54] ikonia: 192.168.1.3 ... but tried 1.nn to, no luck [00:54] View Hidden Files [00:54] how do I do that [00:54] ikonia: In the file browser under Networks it shows Windows Network and thats the only network type thing visible [00:54] chrismo16 your ~/home/bin file is by default in you path [00:54] mynyml: is your router giving out dhcp addresses still ? [00:54] Shaba1: Ctrl+H (on Ubuntu anyway). [00:55] Jpratt: why are you looking at a file browser when your not connected to a network yet ? [00:55] ikonia: yeah [00:55] how can I get the numlock to be turned on at the login screen by default? [00:55] never mind found it. [00:55] I need to format a hard drive in Ubuntu and change it's name. How can this be done? I tried changing the name in disk properties but had no luck. [00:55] mynyml: thats why then, that address conflicts with the dhcp range [00:55] how can I add a location? [00:55] iikonia: I did that Earlier [00:55] AndrewGearhart: sudo apt-get install numlockx [00:55] hey guys [00:55] mynyml: you need to shorten the dhcp range on your router, or reserve a set of addresses to that the router doesn't use them [00:55] and gals [00:55] ikonia: hmm. i remember i used to use 1.3 though .... weird [00:55] Does ANYONE Here use NESSUS? just wondering... :) [00:56] koshari: thx! [00:56] ikonia: i'll try that then, thanks [00:56] mynyml: 1.3 ? [00:56] ikonia: 192.168.1.3 [00:56] mynyml: I see [00:56] JoshuaP0x: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto [00:56] mynyml: you can use them, if the router doesn't have a lease on that address, [00:56] what was a good guide for placeholder debs? [00:56] need to install your graphic drivers, then video won't be all choppy [00:56] what do I need to do to install gnome from a cd.... I cant seem to find a package that will install it [00:56] thanks. [00:56] koshari: how can I add a location? [00:57] that is, I installed XXX by compiling it, and I want dpkg to think the equivalent .deb is installed so dependencies don't break [00:57] hey any chance i can pase my xorg.config file here for you guys to have a look, it looks to me that xorg isnt detecting my monitor at all,\ [00:57] does anyone know why I can't get a signal on MythTV on my Kworld ATSC 120 Tuner? [00:57] Lars_G: too late [00:57] chrismo16 dunno but a symlink may be a workaroung [00:57] ikonia: ? [00:57] Lars_G: if you've already installed it, you've already broke the dependencies [00:57] Zylons: eh. gnome should be the default Desktop Environment if you're installing from ubuntu - you could always try "sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop" [00:57] ikonia: ??? [00:57] Lars_G: yes ? [00:58] Only if the package is completely non-standard [00:58] friedtofu: I cant do that apt-get I dont have a net connect. Also its a server install [00:58] chrismo16 The global $PATH is defined in /etc/profile . Put colons between entries, e.g. PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/games", etc. etc. You can also add things to your $PATH in your user's bash startup scripts ~/.bashrc and ~/.bash_profile, but I prefer to do it globally in /etc/profile. [00:58] Lars_G: no, if it is linked against anything on the ubuntu system [00:58] Shaba1: if you were so worried about what I told you being damaging to your system, why didnt you either "man reset" or google for it (in context) ? [00:58] ikonia: not in this case. no [00:58] Lars_G: and it doesn't replace any ubuntu files [00:59] Nessus anyone? (anyone here use it?...) [00:59] Hey, need some help guys, I'm getting error 2 when I'm trying to boot. I'm running 8.04 and I've booted into a 7.04 cd [00:59] hey guys, plese recommend me someathing easy to make a webpage for an association, I need something easy and with examples to use, also some web page editor? I'm thinking of wordpress and nvu [00:59] Delts grub error? [00:59] ikonia: looks like dhcp is assigning addresses above 192.168.1.100 only [01:00] Yeah koshari [01:00] Delts: error 2 booting the 7.04 cd? or the 7.04 cd works ? [01:00] ikonia: so 192.168.1.3 should be available [01:00] mynyml: then the issue is either your subnet/gateway is wrong, or your router config is wrong [01:00] The live cd works linxeh [01:00] # xorg.conf (X.Org X Window System server configuration file) [01:00] # [01:00] # This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using [01:00] # values from the debconf database. [01:00] # [01:00] # Edit this file with caution, and see the xorg.conf manual page. [01:00] night: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. [01:00] # (Type "man xorg.conf" at the shell prompt.) [01:00] The error is on when I boot from the HDD [01:00] ikonia: Anyhow I think you're wrong here. [01:00] tinin: nvu ? [01:00] Koshari my etc/profile has no mention of $PATH and for some reason I cant find ~/.bashrc nor ~/.bash_profile [01:01] please some idea for a web page editor? linxeh [01:01] Delts: "Selected disk doesn't exist" you will need to check the dev [01:01] tinin: Kompozer is a very good webpage editor. [01:01] tinin: nvu... [01:01] ok [01:01] Lars_G: if your install touches any of the ubuntu files/repalces them, or links against any ubuntu files, or anything links against it, your package managment will be out of sync [01:01] tinin: http://nvudev.com/features.php [01:01] and where should I host it? [01:01] tinin: or pages.google.com [01:01] hi... on my windows pc, it configures automatically to serve as a gateway for a VPN connection, so I can connect other PCs to it and use the VPN. How can I set Ubuntu to work as a gateway for Vpn? [01:01] chrismo16: dunno mate just pasted that from the forums, [01:01] tinin: nvu is ok, but not updated. That's why I prefer Kompozer... [01:01] tinin: pages.google.com might be a better option for you if you aren't sure on hosting, editoing etc [01:01] :-/ [01:02] ikonia: still if my install replaces any ubuntu provided executables, and doesn't provides libraries other packages link against, it wouldn't break anything [01:02] if nvu is updated it must be rarely [01:02] ikonia: the gateway address i know is right. guess it could be the router config. was hoping it was something tricky with the network-admin config - that's easier to get help for =# [01:02] chrismo16: you could try creating them [01:02] I was curious if anyone has any experience working with adobe air apps? I'd like to run twhirl which connects to twitter and not sure how to do this in linux [01:02] ok kompozer! [01:02] ikonia: I'm talking stuff like JVMs and the like, on this particular case, a ruby install [01:02] Lars_G: of course it will, your binary will be linked against the ubuntu libs, so when ubuntu updates its libs - it will break [01:02] but why not wordpress? [01:02] Koshari yeah I read that too dont know whats wrong :( [01:02] It's nice to see a flood bot here - many users are being introduced to IRC via this popular distribution. [01:02] mynyml: view it with ifconfig - check your factual config [01:02] I was seeking for a serious link name [01:03] Delts http://www.techtalkwiki.net/restore_grub_on_linux [01:03] ikonia: depending on the level it's linked against. yes I might have to recompile the program if I update my libs, but with the placeholder at least it wouldn't be a block for modules [01:03] I got this far in ##linux: http://pastebin.com/m71fa0c25 and then they went silent koshari [01:03] Ok === kat is now known as Guest36378 [01:03] tinin: wordpress isnt a webpage editor dood [01:03] Lars_G: no, modules should be fine [01:03] tinin: Try OpenOffice for a wordpress. [01:03] tinin: if you wanted blog software you should have asked for that [01:03] is gnome-look down for anyone else? [01:04] ikonia: alright. i'll keep trying. thanks! [01:04] No one uses Nessus?.... >_> ? [01:04] thanks Gaming4JC I will be back [01:04] Gaming4JC: http://wordpress.org/ [01:04] oh, Wordpress is a website/blog. [01:04] how do i get seamless mode in vbox to work? [01:04] :P [01:04] :) [01:05] hmm... [01:05] well it'll work on Linux, it's online :D [01:05] I'm curious about power management for ubuntu, it seems that ubuntu A) is unable to manage power as well as windows or B) it is managing power just as good or better than windows or C) it uses a different way of managing power I'm only getting 1hr 40min on a full charge with everything turned off (bluetooth, wifi, etc) in windows I would get almost 3 hours with everything off [01:05] geoff_: default is right ctrl+L [01:05] okay...

My wireless card is broadcom bcm4310. I've tried getting it to work with ndiswrapper, and it installed the driver that was supposed to work (bcmwl5.inf) but "Wireless Network Drivers" shows the driver installed, but telling me the hardware is not present. Sorry to interrupt. [02:00] is it possible to download cedega on a torrent site so its free? [02:00] Wannabe: but do restart x [02:01] JoshuaP0x, the ! command just pulls up information on keywords in this IRC channel [02:01] nano_, k [02:01] Wannabe: first, and if that doesnt' work do what i told you [02:01] unop; i've used apt-get for the longest time and haven't had issues with dependencies but i do overkill when i install things.. [02:01] The problems again: 1. no sound computer = f9sg asus [02:01] How do I extract .7z archives that are split into multiple parts? I have p7zip installed and all that. I just type in sudo 7za e /home/blah/blah/My Documents.7z.001 and it gives me an error that there is no such archive. I don't know how to go about putting the entire thing back together. [02:01] anyone running thinkpad t43 ? [02:01] nano_, ok,.brb [02:01] 2. compiz burn effect sucks on my nvidia 9300m G [02:01] shujah: read above ;) [02:01] Woah, that's a bit scary.

[02:02] bastid_raZor, well the next time you come across a conflict - try aptitude instead, you probably will see it try and work around the problem [02:02] for no sound - using alsa or pulseaudio [02:02] unop; i surely will. that is very valuable info regarding apt-get. thanks [02:02] JoshuaP0x, http://jussi01.com/web/factoids.cgi has a database of all the keywords, if you're curious [02:03] & the nvidia driver you used Envy or ubuntu repository for installation? [02:03] : I'll check it out [02:03] is there a way to make my /home directory have its own partition without losing any data? [02:03] does anyone know were i can get cedega for free? maybe a torrent? [02:03] Thainwulf: Which drivers did you use? [02:03] Thainwulf, BCM4310 shoudl work without ndiswrapper though [02:03] shujah: which audio one works [02:03] Dre1: replace the space with a "\ [02:03] shujah: video = driver what ? [02:03] Dre1: replace the space with a "\ " even, or put the whole filename in "" [02:03] : I was looking at that site. THats where I arrived at the question I had [02:04] What does this error msg mean?: "Error while getting peer-to-peer dbus connection: The name :1.33 was not provided by any .service files" [02:04] dude what have you configured on your system alsa or pulseaudio, pulseaudio is new but causes some problems [02:04] chriswr; isohunt.com [02:04] JoshuaP0x, what problem are you having with your video card? [02:04] bobertdos: bcmwl5.inf from this guide: http://aldeby.org/blog/index.php/howto-ubuntu-linux-on-hp-pavilion-dv2000-dv6000-dv9000-series-laptops#wireless MGrunde: It didn't work, though.

"home/blah/blah/My Documents.7z.001" [02:04] Dre1, the master part should have a .7z extension -- maybe do 7za e /home/blah/*.7z [02:04] digitaltao: I don' believe this chat promotes stealing software. [02:04] @krsnadasa have you installed vlc on you system? [02:05] shujah: no [02:05] how do i make a mounted volume not show on the desktop [02:05] 1. I'm not sure if it's loaded and 2. I'm not sure if I could be changing the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file to the values the page says it should look like [02:05] I did lshw -C network and there is no "logical name" and it says configuration: latency=0 and that's all. [02:05] kazol, have you looked in the forums to see if anyone has had the same issue? [02:05] unop: Couldn't find it. [02:06] or should I just be compairing, in that case, mine to the pages doesnt match up. [02:06] anyone know what size file cedega is , i dont want to risk getting virus , if anyone knows? [02:06] so what's next? [02:06] kazol, searched freedesktop.org and perhaps gnome.org too? [02:06] Thainwulf: Do you know if that driver happens to be the most current? I would use the most current XP driver you can find. [02:06] nano_, no luck, it says driver in use but nothging is happen [02:06] OK, I have my Router set up my card is Recognized still I can not Connect to my wireless network, Please Help me it would be apreciated [02:06] Question for all of you guru's.. Is it possible to bind a key in mplayer to set aspect ratio to 16:9? I have a really weird problem, and that would solve it. [02:07] KnomeDE: gconf-editor>apps>nautilus>desktop and uncheck "volumes visible" should do it [02:07] spoontastic: any ideas? [02:07] nano_, it says to reboot, so i'll do so, [02:07] @krsnadasa install envyng from repositories i.e. synaptic package manager and use it to download nvidia [02:07] JoshuaP0x, do DISPLAY=:0 glxinfo | grep render, in a terminal window [02:07] !envy [02:07] envyng is an updated version of the *UNSUPPORTED* envy package.

[02:07] bobertdos: I found another guide for my wireless card that got that driver to work successfully so I think it's the one that's -supposed- to work but I can try looking again [02:07] <__yy_> hyougin: I don't know about mplayer, but you can cycle aspect ratios in vlc with c [02:08] shujah: one sec please [02:08] chriswr, where are you downloading cedega from? [02:08] JoshuaP0x, what info does that give you? [02:08] ok [02:08] thanks, but im leaning torwards mplayer as the default player [02:08] OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Radeon 20061018 AGP 4x x86/MMX/SSE2 TCL [02:08] spoontastic: OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Radeon 20061018 AGP 4x x86/MMX/SSE2 TCL [02:08] unop , isohunt.com [02:08] shujah: when i went to hardware it said there was a update for the nvida card and i clicked upgrade so i am guessing yes to your previous question [02:08] hello, was wondering if someone could help me install wireless drivers for Dell 1505 Draft N, ndiswrapper installed, but network settings doesn't see wireless card even after installing with windows driver [02:08] I like the keyboard shortcuts in mplayer better than vlc [02:09] Thainwulf, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=185174 [02:09] fewer key presses to do the same things [02:09] shujah: i got the audio working thanks to a forum on ubuntu ;) [02:09] sivel: its only one volume that i dont want to see [02:09] ok great [02:09] shujah: just as a side note though it forces me to use pulse whats the differnce between the audio servers? [02:09] I followed unop's advice and it gave me "no files to processes" for My Documents.7z.001 [02:09] JoshuaP0x, okay, so you're running the generic drivers, it looks like. Are you having problems with your video card, though? If everything is running to your satisfaction, I wouldn't worry about conf settings [02:09] Helps me please? [02:10] chriswr, we do not support illegally obtained or pirated software here [02:10] MGrunde: Thanks, looking at that now [02:10] oh , ok [02:10] alsa is old but stable, pulseaudio is newer/ better but some times causes problems. [02:10] spoontastic: everything is very laggy [02:10] shujah: so i am guessing that my nvida driver comes from form the pakage manager? [02:10] thnx for telling me that [02:10] KnomeDE: not sure how to do that other than not auto mounting it. Perhaps manually mount it to /mnt [02:10] nano_, you there? [02:10] Wannabe: yes [02:10] shujah: thanks @ audio server comparison [02:10] spoontastic: even the text scrolling on this screen as people type are lagging [02:11] Wannabe: work? [02:11] nano_, still same deal, but differnt xorg.conf let me show you it. [02:11] JoshuaP0x, how much RAM do you have?

[02:12] spoontastic: if thats what it takes for things to work well [02:12] sivel: can i automount it to there [02:13] JoshuaP0x, go to System>Administration>Hardware Drivers, check the box, then restart X [02:13] you can try...It may just be auto mounting to /media that causes it to show on the desktop [02:13] unop: http://pastebin.com/d10e025bd [02:13] Wannabe: apt-get install nvidia-glx-new [02:14] nano_, nvidia-glx-new is already the newest version.

[02:15] hyougin: not a fanatic, but did you try running mplayer with the "-monitoraspect 16:9" switch ? [02:15] Wannabe: sudo apt-get install --reinstall nvidia-glx-new [02:15] JoshuaP0x, then you will want to go to Applications>Add/Remove, search for "radeon," and install those drivers [02:15] Wannabe: ummm why don't you use the driver from the pakage manger ? [02:16] krsnadasa, thats hasnt worked for some stupid reason either, but i need one with 2d and 3d gfx, and the one from the site always worked best.

[02:24] nano_, ok [02:24] I815: yep, but depending on your card, you may get distorted/clipped sound that way. In practice it's best not to set any of your channels above say 80%, so set PCM at 80%, then use MASTER from then on to control overall volume [02:24] baudthief, and how are you sure that your job has failed? have you tried something like /usr/bin/rsync -avh /home/baudthief /mnt/500G_2/rsync >/path/to/logfile 2>&1 # to see if the logfile was created and has anything in it?

[03:25] :( [03:26] unop, so I created just a text file, each line has the ip but its only tracerouting one ip [03:26] Jman: You can read more on compiz plugins here: http://www.techenclave.com/open-source/compiz-fusion-an-unparalleled-3d-environment-114472.html [03:26] why am i having such trouble with this [03:26] <_2> !b-e | fattmoley [03:26] fattmoley: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first) [03:26] ditto [03:26] Guiri, you can use a directory stanza and define what subnets to allow from [03:26] (redhat ubuntu, Deb) is just the core. Core that is just the drivers and to be able to boot up. (kde, gnome including 10+ other GUE's) the GUE's are a plug in to the distro. Is this correct unop? [03:26] why am i having such trouble with this [03:26] bob3213243, maybe look for updates to the wireless drivers/modules - make sure that nothing is eating up CPU while doing this - tweak swap file usage, etc [03:26] shujah: envyng-gtk ? [03:26] anyone care to help a guy figure out how to mount a disk that has hidden files on it? I need to open an installer.exe file in Wine and can't because it's hidden..and yes, I've already tried viewing hidden files via the menu [03:26] nope envy-ng or envyng [03:27] ctrl + h [03:27] hmm how do i make more than 2 windows [03:27] hello, i am having trouble with my repositories, can some one help Pleese [03:27] id10t: thanks. let me update on where I am: there's nothing in apache2.conf or /etc/wordpress like there is in dokuwiki. I do see a /var/www/wordpress symlink though. I'm just unsure where exactly to place my virtualhost command or my "directory stanza" [03:27] Jman: General Options under compiz [03:27] shujah: they have envyng-core ? [03:27] <_2> hi i was installing "netmrg - network monitoring tool" just to try it out, and the installer asks for a password "What is the password of the database system administrator?" anybody know what i should do now ? [03:27] nicknock, well, linux is the core (the kernel) - the distro is the collection of userland utilities that run on top of the kernel - so kde,gnome,etc run ontop of the kernel, but are used in a particular way making up a distro [03:27] Guiri, if you have /var/www/wordpress then your main apache2 config file ... in /etc/apache2/sites-available [03:28] id10t: Pehrpas in httpd.conf? [03:28] @tstiffler hidden files unless starting with . are by default visible in nautilus [03:28] tstiffler88-> hidden? can you cd to that directory? [03:28] Guiri, probably named 00default or something similar [03:28] !anyone | m_newton [03:28] m_newton: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? [03:28] @ krsnadasa then download the envyng-core [03:28] pxwebdev, maybe this then. while read ip; do traceroute $ip; done < file.tsv [03:28] cc -O -shared -fPIC -o flashcamhook.so flashcamhook.c [03:28] flashcamhook.c:8:19: error: stdio.h: No such file or directory [03:28] flashcamhook.c:9:20: error: stdlib.h: No such file or directory [03:28] flashcamhook.c:10:20: error: string.h: No such file or directory [03:28] flashcamhook.c:11:25: error: sys/syscall.h: No such file or directory [03:28] shujah: ok ;) [03:28] fattmoley: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

[03:29] help! :( [03:29] tstiffler88-> then once you are there you can ls -la to list it [03:29] <_2> JoshuaP0x i never saw your question [03:29] Guiri, so wp is available at yourdomain.com/wordpress now. [03:29] JoshuaP0x, did you post on the Ubuntu forums? [03:29] amenado: and that will show me all of the files there? even hiddens? [03:29] Hey, Im trying to split my harddrive's main partition, is there any way to do it? [03:29] Guiri, there is an install/setup script that you load via a browser to do that part of it... [03:29] idyeah. I'm in the default file. It has Virtualhost *.80 [03:29] fattmoley first of all download this package from ubuntu repos "built-essential" [03:29] Guiri, look at the bottom of that file [03:29] No becasue I found another link that looked right but i just ended up worse then I started [03:29] unop your the man [03:29] !gparted | cdoogz [03:29] cdoogz: gparted is a !GUI partitioning program. Type « sudo apt-get install gparted » in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php [03:30] so essentially I want to deny any *80 not from a domain [03:30] I need to get back to where I was [03:30] at least [03:30] id10t: in the bottom I have a custom https rewrite [03:30] <_2> cdoogz resize it and make a new one [03:30] spoontastic, well when i go to the sources i cant check mark the immportant updates [03:30] .

[03:30] Guiri, one sec and i'll c/p it to you [03:30] whats it called [03:30] shujah: now what ... ? [03:30] Im using audacity to edit a wav file. It started as a wav and I edit it (just trimming and cutting) and then when i replay it it sounds horrible... any ideas [03:30] <_2> cdoogz gparted [03:30] I try to print a test page in Ubuntu but nothing comes out on the paper... ??? [03:30] so you've downloaded it [03:30] <_2> cdoogz you don't want to format it no. [03:30] amenado: thanks, be back soon to let you know [03:30] m_newton, important updates should be checked by default [03:30] id10t: the /doc alias? [03:31] hi [03:31] Guiri, yup [03:31] no, i don't [03:31] i believe [03:31] shujah: was that suprising ? [03:31] lol [03:31] Guiri, see the last line of it - Allow from 127.0.0.0/255.0.0.0 ::1/128 [03:31] shujah: yea i did i think.... [03:31] spoontastic, Yes i know that, but i tried stuff and it got unchecked [03:31] under general options i dont see where to add a new window [03:31] it says its locked, not sure why [03:31] m_newton, tried stuff? [03:31] <_2> cdoogz if windows has been using it, you will prolly need to boot windows, turn off the page file, defrag the drive, then come back to linux and use gparted on it. [03:31] : mind helping me? [03:32] spoontastic, Well, now it is just http://paste.ubuntu.com/26094/ [03:32] This is a little off topic but my network connection just got goof up. === gardar is now known as gardar`afk [03:32] id10t: testing now. Allow from can be a domain right? [03:32] JoshuaP0x, I'd recommend posting on the forums -- they can be quite helpful. I don't know the answer about your drivers [03:32] hmm okay [03:32] otherwise I'll have to lookup my dns servers [03:32] dd-wrt is there any command lines for troubleshoot the network problum? My roomate keeps his notbook in hibernation.

[03:33] Guiri, umm... dunno [03:33] i hate windows honestly [03:33] <_2> cdoogz i'm honest about it too [03:33] but i must keep it for my school [03:33] cdoogz, what do you have that requires windows? [03:33] <_2> soooo! i was installing "netmrg - network monitoring tool" just to try it out, and the installer asks for a password "What is the password of the database system administrator?" what should i do now ? [03:34] m_newton, that's a lot of stuff [03:34] school stuff :) [03:34] I'm having a large problem with my webcam. I can get it to work, but the picture is incredibly dark. Editing the brightness in a program like camorama doesn't do much. It is so dark that only direct sources of light can be seen. I've searched the forums, tried what I could, but I'm out of ideas. Any help appreciated. [03:34] m_newton, when doing a lot of stuff, it's prudent to not do a lot of stuff all at once [03:34] has anyone tried cedega since they fixed it? [03:34] amenado: it worked, but the file is not there....I have no clue what to do next [03:35] shujah: EnvyNG - Version 1.1.1 [03:35] Ubuntu Hardy 32bit [03:35] EnvyNG ERROR: Envy does not recognise your card as compatible with any version of the driver.this might happen because either your card is not supported by the driver or Envy's hardwaredetection failed.

I have a similar problem that no one can solve too.... good luck. [04:03] lol [04:03] with compiz? [04:03] nykkto: yeah i think fsck has a dos checking utility [04:03] its a deticated bittorrent client...thats why [04:03] Stepa1: can't you just download it again and add it? [04:04] Whokai: No, it's a pidgin feature [04:04] Really need help with this I have a Linksys WPC54GS ver. 2 wireless PCMI card, I need it to work which it isnt Please help [04:04] I would appreciate some help with a terminal issue: if typing in "/sys/devices/system/cpu/sched_mc_power_savings" returns "permission denied," should I "chmod" it?

[04:04] Reformer81: in my case (actually a friend's) it might be that the correct codecs aren't installed for the video [04:04] has anyone successfully installed vista and hardy to dual boot ? [04:04] i have automake but it can't find aclocal [04:04] what compiz? [04:04] koolranch: NO [04:04] Whokai: Sorry, GTG, ask and call ppl by their name as it told you [04:04] Whokai: K? [04:04] ok [04:04] rockenrola: but would that restart the download? [04:04] yeha sure [04:04] what should I do reformer? [04:04] andrewy: What codec is the video encoded in? [04:04] koolranch-> you dont mess around with those kernel generated files in /sys [04:04] koolranch: no, try running that command with "sudo" in front [04:04] Palace_Chan: I'm dual boot vista and Ubuntu [04:04] !sudo | koolranch [04:04] koolranch: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root").

Transmission and azureus can resume [04:05] koolranch: Howevre, be EXTREMELY careful using sudo. Only do it if you know exactly what the command will do. [04:05] anyone have any luck install vmware server on 8? is there a new patch out or somethin? [04:05] supertanker: it should be part of automake [04:05] Stepa1, have you tried deluge? [04:05] Stepa1: as long as the path remains the same [04:05] supertanker: or autoconf [04:05] /query ubottu [04:05] Stepa1: personally, i prefer bittornado for CLI torrenting. [04:05] Hi everyone, I am new to ubuntu and am wondering if there is a way to install a base developement package? Just so I can compile from source and such. Thanks! [04:05] * Reformer81 loves KTorrent [04:05] Starnestommy: It's not [04:05] i did so, i have dual booted before with XP and feisty, ive got vista installed, but somehow when i put the hardy install disc and run the installer...i go to the partitions manually, it wont allow me to resize them which is strange, and then it always crashes at 94% in grub fatal error [04:05] mneptok: but the .torrent file is gone now [04:05] Does anyone know how to setup a standard ftp through places over a LAN? [04:05] plasma__: Install build-essential [04:05] <__yy_> plasma__: sudo apt-get install build-essential [04:05] Mighty_Penguin: what is deluge? [04:05] Stepa1: then you need to get another copy of the .torrent [04:05] Reformer81: thanks! [04:05] plasma__: That will install all the necessary compilers. [04:06] Stepa1, a GUI torrent app [04:06] bob3213243, install pureadmin its a nice ftp server with a gui i keep it on my laptop in case i ever need to transer some files [04:06] also, Any one know if UME/Ubuntu MID will work on an iPod [04:06] bob3213243-> come again? you want to setup an ftp server? [04:06] great thanks! [04:06] Jpratt: no. [04:06] mneptok: I will give it a try [04:06] Mighty_Penguin: i heard that rtorrent is fastes [04:06] that sucks [04:06] Jpratt: Any edition of Ubuntu will support non-Gen6 iPods, I believe. [04:06] People: i only have 2 screens in compiz to switch around in how do i get four or more? [04:07] i've heard the grub thing has issues with vista, and easyBCD from vista can help...but no matter where i put the grub thing it produces a fatal error during hardy installation [04:07] Whokai, see the 2 boxes showing the screens? right click that :) [04:07] Reformer81: I have the new Nano [04:07] amenado I want to connect to my kubuntu box on my LAN via the connect to sever under places with a standard ftp.

[04:08] Reformer81: Will it work on there [04:08] Mighty_Penguin:wow thanks heaps [04:08] bob3213243-> does your kubuntu box have an ftp server running? you proly want an sftp rather than the insecure ftp [04:08] Whokai, np [04:08] what might be the apt package to grab the current kernel source? [04:08] Mighty_Penguin: mighy helpfull [04:08] plasma__-> sudo apt-cache search linux-image [04:08] Jpratt: I'm not sure... Apple decided to create their newest iPods to lock out Linux. You can get it to work, but it may take additional work to break through the lock. [04:08] mighty*\ [04:09] amenado nah, I want it without the encryption. [04:09] can anyone tell me which is the most anonymous bittorrent client for ubuntu? [04:09] Mighty_Penguin: do i just write people if i want to send something to everyone?

[04:10] i asked which bittorrent client is the most anonymous [04:10] During an Ubuntu 8.04 install from the distro cd I get this endless string of error messages. Here is a sample of the error.

[04:10] i know that reformer [04:10] me_: The FBI will always find you anyway. :P [04:10] Any suggestions on how I can get this installed [04:11] me_, deluge has an ip blocklist importer extension if that interests you [04:11] obeyan: Try running a check on the installation disc. [04:11] ok...so i was able to start utorrent with wine over ssh....but when I close the connection it also closes utorrent...so how would I set it up to boot via console [04:11] HOORAAAAAY FOR UBUNTU [04:11] I did it says its fine [04:11] Whokai, +1 [04:11] meme03847:what? === plasma__ is now known as adr3nalin3 [04:12] Whokai, +1 means i agree [04:12] The check passes [04:12] meme03847: what does that mean? [04:12] ohh ok [04:12] airhead: Wine (and consequently uTorrent) requires an X server to be running... so it can't be run without actually logging into a GUI system. [04:12] hehe [04:12] meme03847: lol [04:12] then why does it work over ssh [04:12] any asoundrc experts around?

[04:12] airhead: Hmm... perhaps I was wrong... Ignore me :( [04:12] koolranch: to locate any app you can use find or locate (followed by the app name), the system database that keeps track of those things might need a manual refresh to work right after install .. "sudo updatedb" .. let that finish and "locate powertop" will output the location [04:13] ALL: Iam noobish to linux!!!! [04:13] i put in a 2nd harddrive how do i format it so ubuntu will recognize it [04:13] ALL: started last week [04:13] co_16_baik [04:13] Mighty_Penguin, mneptok, rockenrola: Simply redownloading the .torrent worked. Thanks for all your help [04:13] airhead, you can run it from screen and it wont close utorrent when you close the connection [04:13] any clue, anyone, about where powertop might be installed on my system?

[04:14] thatnks to those of u who helped me with my problems [04:14] bye [04:14] Anyone know what's on the DVDs that isn't on the CDs? [04:14] thanks, I feel so much [04:14] Reformer81: that is a very valid point, thanks [04:15] eechzilla well...do you first know how i can get it to autostart? [04:15] •Reformer81• any suggestions? [04:15] tdwtf: All that the DVD has over the CD is a lot more packages (which are available through the online repositories anyway). === gardar is now known as gardar`afk [04:15] tdwtf: So really, the DVD is only useful if you're installing Ubuntu on a system that has no internet access. At least that's how I see it. [04:15] i don't understand the "nano -w" in this line. sudo nano -w /etc/network/interfaces [04:15] koolranch: no idea really, i use the terminal to locate things .. there are many GUI apps that you can use though, beagle i believe is a common one) .. [04:15] Reformer81: I've got a 1.5mb connection to my unmetered ISP mirror of the packages. Would the DVD be faster for some packages? [04:16] (the DVD download itself is unmetered, too) [04:16] eechzilla: when I did run it over ssh and disconnected it also stopped running, I also never saw it running locally...like no icon or window === tshine_afk is now known as tshine [04:16] why is it saying i have more than 1 synaptic application running [04:16] when i dont [04:16] tdwtf: Possibly. All you would do is tell apt to install from the DVD instead of downloading the packages. [04:16] ALL: how would i get the latest version of compiz for ubuntu? [04:16] <[TiZ]> Gah, my thread's about to fall off of page 1 in General. It may not have been a totally brilliant idea to post it there. [04:16] Cool [04:16] Thanks Reformer81 [04:16] Jman: If you're also running "apt" in a terminal, it will tell you that. [04:16] airhead: run it within screen, i.e. type screen -S utorrent before you run utorrent [04:17] Jman: Synaptic, apt-get, and Add/Remove software are all basically the same program. [04:17] Do i need to have EasyBCD installed in vista prior to installing ubuntu ? Because i cant get rid of that fatal grub error during installation [04:17] Reformer81: how would i get the latest version of compiz for ubuntu? [04:17] o ok [04:17] If my box freeze again, I will need to use Windows Vista [04:17] Whokai: sudo apt-get install compiz [04:17] ahh winbugs [04:17] S4nD3r: Good luck with Vista not freezing :) [04:17] Reformer81: is that the latest one though? [04:18] lol [04:18] hi all.. [04:18] Whokai: Possibly not. You can do a Google search for compiz to find it's official website. Then you'd have to compile it from source, though. [04:18] bck to do battle with this.. [04:18] howdy dgcruising [04:18] ok, as per before [04:18] how i wish I could play GTA 4 on ubuntu :( [04:18] Reformer81: sudo apt-get so i type that into the terminal? [04:18] airhead: and if you want to run it before you start gdm or kde, then you can try to launch a fake X server using xvfb and then try running utorrent (within screen) on it. That way you can launch it from ssh, not close on closing connection, and you dont need to have gdm or kde started [04:18] Hi. Can anybody explain why I get "cannot open /dev/null: Permission denied" when I put an extended ACL on the root directory when I try to log in using an authorized key?

I go to connect to sever and select ftp with login and type 192.168.2.10 into the sever slot which is the local ip and nickolaus which is the username for the box and it says it failed to connect. I don't want to connect via ssh. any ideas? [04:26] Where is the config file for network defices?

[04:26] bob3213243: first, why do ytou want FTP and not SFTP? [04:26] chriswr: Is it source code? [04:26] rocken, how about scp? [04:26] grargh...it's a touch frustrating [04:27] idk how do i check? [04:27] Where is the config file for network devices? [04:27] what exactly happened with 8.04 that broke all the audio? [04:27] i dont have time for that === rabelais_ is now known as rabelais [04:27] anyone here got the wusb600n adapter? i got it working with ndiswrapper but only if i plug it in after i've logged in. if i have it in during boot, the boot hangs at the network setup. [04:27] chriswr: What is the package for and where did you download it? [04:27] I've accidentally put some files I don't have permission to delete in the recycle bin, how do I empty it, or move them back out? x.x [04:27] im a very busy man i just like the sleek look of this new os i have never tried [04:27] Jman: Not to be rude then if you arn't willing to learn go back to windows :\ [04:27] Jman: Then we don't have time to hold your hand. [04:27] ummm , h/o one sc ill check [04:27] pxwebdev: copy over ssh. very secure. must have install openssh-server on either side [04:27] the directions on all these websites are horrible [04:27] mneptok I'm trying to skirt the overhead that is caused by the encryption. I don't have any need for it on my LAN. [04:27] @negromancer open trasbin via nautilus and move em to a folder [04:28] if I have unpacked the O/S to master.. so have a sub-dir.. ubuntu-8.04-desktop-i386 [04:28] Jman: Microsoft has excellent documentation. [04:28] Jman, a busy man on irc? i call bologna on that one. [04:28] glitsj16: thanks heaps [04:28] <- us army [04:28] larson9999: Rofl [04:28] bob3213243: that overhead is negligible on modern CPUs [04:28] glitsj16: going good so far [04:28] ok, I think I can do it from scp, since im all on the same network [04:28] Jman: As I said, if you arn't going to learn go away. [04:28] Jman: Uhm... should we bow? Either put in some effort to learn for yourself, or go away. [04:28] I already have scp configured for another process [04:28] thanks [04:28] so trying to run it to install across to the USBdrive.. but not happening.. [04:28] mneptok I love ssh and use it all the time but I'm trying to increase to transfer speeds on my LAN so I'm playing with the options. [04:28] bob3213243: id' guess that you have apready spent more time trying to get FTP set up correctly than you would have saved by not having encryption ;) [04:28] http://www.gtk-apps.org/content/show.php/Ping45?content=82935 thats the link i got it from [04:28] Jman: We're more than willing to help, but we won't simply hold your hand and do everything for you. [04:29] Reformer81: Perfectly said. [04:29] bob3213243: not to mention that tools like rsync like ssh [04:29] At least someone's ANSWERING him. [04:29] Whokai: your welcome, found that method of getting latest compiz recently myself, works great, goodluck [04:29] Templar_Xion: Too bad he ran away before I said it ;) [04:29] Negromancer: open trasbin via nautilus and move em to a folder [04:29] holy crap...i didnt need to launch fake x server....utorrent works w/o a windowmanager [04:29] !packaging [04:29] The packaging guide is at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages for information on getting a package integrated into Ubuntu - Other developer resources are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment - See also !backports [04:30] mneptok I'm confused because I can only get 2.4mbps via ssh. [04:30] wants to open a internet connection.. and then my virus checker is telling me I got a trojen that wants to load.. [04:30] Reformer81: Darn.. Can you help me real quick? :D [04:30] now...what files do i edit so I can auto run a program [04:30] bob3213243: tried an rsync over ssh? [04:30] Lta guys [04:30] reformer81: http://www.gtk-apps.org/content/show.php/Ping45?content=82935 thats the link i got it from [04:30] chriswr: Okay, that is an archive file. Simply extract it and run the .py file within. [04:30] lata guys* [04:30] bye Whokai [04:30] mneptok no. [04:30] thus the install wont go thru.. [04:30] mneptok what is it? [04:30] Templar_Xion: I doubt I CAN... what's the problem? [04:30] Templar_Xion: bye [04:30] reformer81: just double click it? [04:30] chriswr: Yes. [04:30] bob3213243: rsync syncs files and directories. [04:30] thnx [04:31] Reformer81: I'm looking for the config file for network devices. /etc/network/interfaces doesn't have what I want. I want to change an IP address manually [04:31] mneptok the 2.4mbps is smoking given I just came from a windows xp/vista network and 1.5gb took an hour. [04:31] bob3213243: and can use ssh as a transport. works pretty fast for me. *shrug* [04:31] Templar_Xion: Which IP address do you need to change? [04:31] @Templar_Xion open network from system > admin [04:31] Reformer81: 192.168.1.106 :P [04:31] Gateway 1.254 [04:31] Templar_Xion: I meant... what is the IP address FOR ;) [04:31] mneptok how do I use it? [04:31] reformer81: one more question , run in terminal , or just run? [04:31] bob3213243: get openssh-server installed on the machine you want FTP on, and do some tests.\ [04:32] Reformer81: hahahahah. Sorry. eth0. Or you asking the purpose? [04:32] chriswr: I usually run it from a terminal... [04:32] Templar_Xion: open network from system > admin [04:32] mneptok it is installed. [04:32] chriswr: But either should work. Running it from a terminal lets you see any errors it runs into, though. [04:32] ok [04:32] bob3213243: PM? [04:32] shujah: What's the command-line way to go about it? [04:32] oh ok [04:32] thnx again [04:32] chriswr: You're welcome [04:32] mneptok PM...? [04:32] mneptok what do you mean? [04:33] Templar: though you'll need to opt for static ip for that [04:33] bob3213243: install openssh-server on the remote machine [04:33] no takers? do i have to burn the o/s to cds only? to install [04:33] shujah: That's alright, thats the purpose. [04:34] dgcruzing: Talking about Ubuntu? [04:34] yes.. [04:34] hi all how do i set alsa to use a different sound source ie its defaulting to the onboard but i want to be my soundblaster [04:34] ok here goes terminal > sudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces [04:34] dgcruzing: If you downloaded the CD image, then you can't only burn it to a CD-R/RW. If you download the DVD image, well... yeah... DVDs only. [04:34] auto eth0 --- iface eth0 inet static < these two lines will be present by default [04:34] hi all how do i set alsa to use a different sound source ie its defaulting to the onboard but i want to be my soundblaster [04:35] reformer81: ummm , i clicked on it , but nothing happens [04:35] !patience | nostahl [04:35] nostahl: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that.

[04:35] tryin to have movie night with gf heh [04:35] eww..... that's a lot ruder than it used to be. [04:35] ok here goes terminal > sudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces (interfaces is the file) [04:35] right.. but I think I have it unpacked on my hardrive already.. [04:35] I see.. wubi.exe [04:35] in Audacity the capture device "ALSA: spdif" appears to be the digital input (also, it has a name hw:0,1) and Audacity has no problem capturing from that channel. my ~/.asoundrc is pasted at http://rafb.net/p/wssf1O37.html , how can I modify so that sound gotten from spdif went straight to the speakers? [04:35] chriswr: Okay... right-click the .py file and choose Properties. Then go to the Permissions tab and make sure there is a checkmark next to "Allow running as a program" [04:35] can anyone point me in the right direction on how to create/edit a bootscript for console [04:36] is that the intall file? [04:36] install [04:36] dgcruzing: You can't install it from your hard drive... only from the disc. [04:36] airhead read about runlevels and rc.d [04:36] shujah: I can only copy it out of recycle, not move it [04:36] reformer81: yes there is [04:36] Negromancer: go to terminal and > sudo nautilus then go to trashbin and move or emty it [04:36] so can only install from bootable disks? [04:37] nostahl: asoundconf-gtk is a package to select your default sound card for ALSA, might do what you need fast .. [04:37] shujah: I tried that, it took me to the root user's trash bin [04:37] chriswr: Okay, run it again (from a terminal this time). Then let me know if there are any errors listed. If it's more than one line, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to post the errors. [04:37] glitsj16: was that for me? [04:37] @ Negromancer so what go to your hoime directory then trashbin and remove it [04:37] how can I see a complete list of users? [04:38] slavik: no for nostahl [04:38] AndrewGearhart: System -> Administration -> Users and Groups [04:38] k [04:38] Reformer81: that lists two users... andrew and root ... and when I try to add the user www-data ... it says the user already exists [04:38] reformer81: when i try running in terminal , the terminal acts like its gona open up but shuts down before you can even see anything [04:39] chriswr: Okay... open a terminal (Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal) [04:39] thus.. I have to burn the ISO image out to optical disc? [04:39] chriswr: Then type cd [path to your .py file]. [04:39] dgcruzing: Yes. [04:39] how do u make an SD Card Bootable [04:40] no workaround? [04:40] from within xp? [04:40] dgcruzing: Uhm... no? Although, I'm not totally sure about using Wubi. I doubt it will work from the hard drive, but you can try it. [04:40] IT TAKES ME TO THE ROOT USER TRASH BIN. I don't know how I can be clearer about this. [04:41] dgcruzing: Do you not have a cd burner? [04:41] If I knew the actual location of the trash bin in the file system, this would work, but I don't see it in ~/ [04:41] Negromancer: Are you logged into Nautilus as root (did you start it with sudo nautilus)? [04:41] reformer81: how would i find that , the folder its in is on my desktop [04:41] I have this installation problem, the error message is too long to paste in the channel. heres the link http://paste.ubuntu.com/26117/plain/ [04:41] chriswr: cd /home/[your username]/Desktop/Ping9 [04:41] yes.. but sitting in hotel in a village in Thailand.. lol [04:42] chriswr: That's if Ping9 is the name of the directory it's in.

[04:52] 1269 people lol [04:52] spoontastic: so I have to disconnect from the internet when I setup my router? :S [04:52] <[TiZ]> Man... I always have the problems no one knows about. I guess on the bright side, it means I'm doing everything else right. [04:52] chriswr: Sorry... it seems like it depends on the program screenlets to function. [04:52] AndrewGearhart: you can try to edit that file directly. but it is dangerous. Why do you want that? [04:52] hi what aplication can I use to sincronize videos to my ipod? [04:52] What package do I need to get the OpenGL devel headers? [04:52] chriswr: It's not actually a program itself... it is a plugin for the screenlets program. [04:53] chriswr: Sorry, I didn't read the description on the website. [04:53] Chaotic_Descent: again what does ifconfig return? [04:53] ok i got my 2nd harddrive partitioned but i cant access it did i do it wrong [04:53] I guess I should get everything I need off the internet to figure out how to set up my router for PPPoE... but I always forget something. [04:53] shujah: you around still ? [04:53] garyx: Amarok works very well. [04:53] rockenrola: mind if I pm? [04:53] krsnadasa: yup [04:53] no [04:53] rockenrola: which part? there's many lines it spits out. [04:53] reformer81: oh so i need the screenlets program? [04:53] Frogzoo damn look at this place its stuffed [04:53] supertanker: Search Synaptic for opengl and look for a package ending with -dev [04:53] chriswr: Yes. [04:54] * phenobitch goes back to tiny #politics [04:54] Chaotic_Descent, depending on your service provider, PPPoE may be handled completely within the modem, allowing you to treat the connection as if it was cable or fiber [04:54] use this http://paste.ubuntu.com/ [04:54] Okay I will ask my question again with more information. I begin with the installation of windows Xp on WesternDigital HD I only use 10 go for windows after I made a ntfs parition with about 190 go and finaly I installer Ubuntu following many tutorial and I got alway the same error 17 when grub is loading, My HD is a Sata and I dont have any other HD, any Idea about that ? [04:54] reformer81: do you know a link , or just google it up? [04:54] !repeat | Baptist1 [04:54] Baptist1: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience === stylus__ is now known as stylus [04:54] hey, whats the difference between the regular trash can applet in awn and the stacks one? [04:54] chriswr: It's actually in the Ubuntu repos (sudo apt-get install screenlets) I think. [04:54] !info screenlets [04:54] screenlets (source: screenlets): Widget-like mini-applications for GNOME. In component universe, is extra. Version 0.0.12-0ubuntu5 (hardy), package size 1939 kB, installed size 7832 kB [04:54] is there any fix for the flash/sound bug yet? [04:54] Chaotic_Descent, in other words, you can ignore PPPoE considerations -- depending on how your ISP handles the protocol [04:54] Baptist1: This particular grub error is really rather tricky to deal with, especially for someone new to Linux. [04:55] shujah: cool [04:55] l815: are you talking about it crashing when you watch youtube videos and such? [04:55] spoontastic: no. it doesn't. I have to do it via software or the router. I need to set up the router because it keeps logging me out of websites every few minutes. [04:55] so you sorted out that problem>? [04:55] shujah: i am going to need your help in a bit [04:55] reformer81: ok its installing , when its done do i just double click on the .py file again? [04:55] shujah: got distracted with something else lol [04:55] kenan: nope, i didnt install libflashplugin, i'm talking about the sound bug where you can only play flash sound after closing other apps [04:55] sure [04:56] chriswr: No.. I believe now you'll need to run Screenlets and figure out how to install a plugin within that program. [04:56] chriswr: I don't use screenlets, though, so I'm afraid I'll be of no more help to you. [04:56] reformer81: ok [04:56] is there any way to fix the broken 3d windows plugin that hardy comes with? [04:56] windows plugin? [04:56] what do they call it, a persistent connection? something that keeps reminding the DSL modem that it's still connected. [04:56] reformer81: ok thnx a lot [04:56] <[TiZ]> I'm having problems using Autohinting with the default Sans font. I followed a how-to to activate the autohinting. It was supposed to come out looking like http://hmm.iglu.sk/~dulus/ubuntu/fonts/02-settings.png but it looks like http://launchpadlibrarian.net/12505687/Screenshot.png (see bottom window) instead. It made Sans look bigger. Is there any way I can fix this? [04:56] shujah, 3d windows [04:56] shujah: i will be back in a bit ;) [04:56] Chaotic_Descent, in that case, it appears that your issue would be with the router, technically, instead of being an Ubuntu support issue [04:57] geoff_: Could you be more specific? Ubuntu doesn't come with any "3d windows" [04:57] 3d windows like in compiz-config [04:57] spoontastic: I can't connect to the router in Ubuntu though. [04:57] I mean I did it... and... [04:57] once. [04:57] Chaotic_Descent, I see, then it is an Ubuntu issue :) [04:57] god, I hate being a failure. [04:57] l815: What version of flash are you using? That bug was addressed some time ago. [04:57] Chaotic_Descent go to system > admin > network and tick the routing mode [04:57] Chaotic_Descent: You'll get used to it... I have :) [04:58] how do you kill a detached screen session? [04:58] bobertdos: i had the default flash from ubuntu-restricted, then installed 10beta2 and both times I had the bug [04:58] shujah: what routing mode? [04:58] Okay guys I have a question. What is your standard LAN file transfer speed? [04:58] Chaotic_Descent, as I mentioned before, if you have an Ethernet card, I recommend plugging the cable into it (of you haven't already), disabling the motherboard-based Ethernet port (if there is one) and seeing what happens [04:58] Chaotic_Descent: but can you even ping your router? [04:58] hmm [04:58] how do i format a hardrive to use it with ubuntu [04:58] bob3213243 73% of your hardware connection minutes physical reductions [04:59] bob3213243: 27% is TCP/IP overhead [04:59] minutes = minus [04:59] there is a routing mode in netwrok config, i.e. zero config if for some reason you untick it and try to use a static ip you might have a problem [04:59] spoontastic: why specifically use the card instead of the onboard one? [04:59] Does any one know off hand if the app "screen" when deteched will not exit on SIGHUP, or when you logout etc.? Or must you execute screen with nohup or disown? [04:59] Chaotic_Descent: If you have both enabled in your BIOS, it could be creating conflicts. [04:59] If any one follows me, without testing it myself* :) [04:59] Is there any reason why torrents would be slower in ubuntu than in windows. Tried Deluge and Transmission ports are forwarded and check fine. but I seem to max out at 10kb per torrent and about 80kb overall. [05:00] Chaotic_Descent, only because it's easier to disable the mobo port in the BIOS, instead of physically removing the Ethernet card [05:00] notaguest: Same exact torrent source? [05:00] rockenrola: I don't know... uh... it... I think not. [05:00] notaguest: Depends on the torrent and the amount of seeders at the time. There's no cause for difference in speeds. KTorrent performs just as well in Linux as uTorrent does in Windows for me. [05:00] notaguest: Windows client could have default limit of upload. [05:00] ... .... disabling it in the bios? isn't it just easier to unplug the network cable? :S [05:01] Templar_xion I was actually asking for an actual speed. but thanks. I have a 54mbps router and can download files off the WAN at 16mps but I can seem to move files on my lan faster than 2.4mbps. [05:01] yep same torrents... I use dattebayo ones to test as DHT etal isn't a factor and they only use one tracker. It will max out my connection in windows but still slow in ubuntu [05:01] Chaotic_Descent: ping -I [interface name] [router ip] [05:01] In other words,, if you detach a "screen"ed irssi, and you logout, will it quit also? [05:01] Or must it be run with nohup [05:01] is 2.4 mbps standard LAN file transfer speeds on a 54mbps router? [05:01] shujah: ok nevermind i got it ;) [05:01] :) [05:01] shujah: but i will come back LOL [05:01] bob3213243: Wireless SUCKS for intranet file transfers. You'll get like crappy. I'd be happy w/ 2.4mbps [05:01] Chaotic_Descent, if you have two active ports, disabling one makes troubleshooting easier -- although you can just try the other port and see if that works [05:01] rockenrola: I pinged 192.168.1.1 and it's just sitting there... [05:01] no speed limit has been set in deluge which i'm using atm [05:02] Requesting assistance on setting up Firebird2 Super Server on 8.04???? It's installed, but how do I start it so I may set the DBA password? [05:02] "try the other port" how? [05:02] notaguest: Hmm.. not sure. When I started using KTorrent, I never had to forward any ports or anything and have always gotten great speeds with high-seed torrents. [05:02] selocol: I would use ps to find the process ID and then use the command kill to kill it. [05:02] l815: Well, I know that bug was neutralized for most configs, but not all..........9.0.124 is the version you tried from the repos, right? [05:02] notaguest so you have forwarded ports on router and the ip is not being blocked by firewall or anything [05:02] Chaotic_Descent: sure it is 192.168.1.1 ? some routers are different [05:02] Templar_xion so I should try wiring in? [05:02] bullgard4: thanks [05:02] bob3213243: What are you trying to do? [05:02] Chaotic_Descent, unplug the cable from one Ethernet port and stick in the other [05:02] rockenrola: yes. positive. I connected to it earlier. [05:03] bobertdos, not sure if that's what came with ubuntu-restricted-extras package, but I'll give that version a shot [05:03] yep ports are forwarded [05:03] Templar_xion just moving files. Movies etc... [05:03] how come ping isn't failing or something? in windows it would tell me there's no reply instead of just hanging... [05:03] Chaotic_Descent: that rules out my next question then, is the cable OK? [05:03] bob3213243: Short answer: One time file transfer of 50mb< then do it over the wireless otherwise plug it in. [05:03] rockenrola: well, the light's on. [05:03] Templar_xion and 2.4 is much better than windows. it used to take me an hour+ to move 1gb. [05:03] Chaotic_Descent: Because Linux is a persistant fighter whereas Windows just gives up :) [05:03] Chaotic_Descent: also, many routers are set up at 192.168.0.1, instead of 192.168.1.1 [05:03] bob3213243: Wireless has not 'matured' for high speed data rates [05:04] * Reformer81 has given himself to sarcasm instead of true helpfulness so it is time to depart. :) [05:04] Have a good night everyone and good luck with your support issues! [05:04] Templar_xion I'm using G is N any better? [05:04] bobertdos, hm that's weird. I install 10 beta 2, but i have 9.0.124 installed [05:04] why am I getting an anxiety attack over this? [05:05] bob3213243: I am not sure if N has been finalized. It will potentially be good, but hardwaring is the way to go for the moment. Cheapest and fasteast, most secure etc === selocol_ is now known as selocol [05:05] Chaotic_Descent: relax. this is the fun part [05:05] Templar_xion thx. [05:05] bob3213243: Np. [05:05] Deluge allows you to set halh-open connections any suggestion as what this should be set to? might help [05:05] Every time my login screen opens up it far exceeds the bounds of my monitor (similar to a high resolution picture being viewed on a low resolution screen) ... It's annoying, how do I make the login screen "stretch" to the center instead of going out of the monitor? [05:05] shujah: Dell 1395 802.11G Wireless Mini Card how do i get this thing up ? [05:06] Chaotic_Descent: I am just getting into the issue, whats going on? [05:06] Templar_xion hey can anyone help out on this or are you guys part of an organization? [05:06] krsnadasa: I won't be much help on this one I use a wired connection [05:06] would libflash0c2 fix my flash/sound issue? [05:06] bob3213243: This is just a community of ubuntu users willing to spend their personal time and energy to help out others [05:06] sweet [05:06] shujah: no problem thanks anyway [05:06] Am I in the wrong channel for DB support? [05:07] bob3213243: I'm just a geek at home watching Family Guy doing some stuff on ubuntu [05:07] <[TiZ]> I'm having problems using Autohinting with the default Sans font. I followed a how-to to activate the autohinting. It was supposed to come out looking like http://hmm.iglu.sk/~dulus/ubuntu/fonts/02-settings.png but it looks like http://launchpadlibrarian.net/12505687/Screenshot.png (see bottom window) instead. It made Sans look bigger. Is there any way I can fix this? [05:07] but check it out on ubuntu forums [05:07] is anybody aware of malware that effects ubuntu/firefox ? [05:07] ohhhhh... maybe I need to disable this roaming mode on the one that's connected to my router. [05:07] quick question about bind9 -- at the moment it only allows recursion from localnet. How do I allow recursion from 192.168.1.0/24 -- I found half an example but it 'assumes' we already have a localnet ACL set up.. how do I define an ACL? [05:07] Chaotic_Descent: Have you setup the gateway and subnet mask correctly? [05:08] is there a command to flush/rebuild permissions w/o having to logout completely? [05:08] in Audacity the capture device "ALSA: spdif" appears to be the digital input (also, it has a name hw:0,1) and Audacity has no problem capturing from that channel. my ~/.asoundrc is pasted at http://rafb.net/p/wssf1O37.html , how can I modify so that sound gotten from spdif went straight to the speakers? [05:09] hi what can I use to sincronize videos to my ipod with Amarok ? [05:09] ? [05:10] AndrewGearhart-> open up another console ? [05:10] does anyone know were i would find a directory called "$HOME/.screenlets"? [05:10] chriswr-> ever tried ~/.screenlets ? [05:11] i'm not use to having porn pop up on this computer when i open firefox. when i started a new session it didn't do that though. makes me wonder if someone was surfing porn and firefox crashed. [05:11] amenado: how do I do that? (I don't think you mean another terminal window) [05:11] @chris /username/.screenlets (press Ctrl+H for showing hidden files) [05:11] How can I Install Java plugin for Firefox3, I have AMD64. [05:11] AndrewGearhart-> offcourse i meant another window, ctrl+alt+F1 to F6 [05:11] thnx [05:11] freetube: Porn popups can and usually do work independantly of malware. It's probably a homepage set to a porn popup site as well as the pop-up blocker disabled [05:11] how can I use Amarok to sincronize videos to my ipod ? [05:12] l815: So you didn't uninstall 9 before installing the beta? [05:12] Anyone know why my Login Screen exceeds the bounds of my monitor? [05:13] bobertdos, I did and it said it was, but for some reason it's back :/ [05:13] How can I Install Java plugin for Firefox3 over AMD64? [05:13] Shoopuf, what video card and monitor do you have? [05:13] bobertdos, i'll try installing 10 again [05:13] Davi2: do you have java already installed? [05:13] Davi2, try sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre [05:14] xtknight: NVidia and I'm using the restricted drivers and I've got a Samsung monitor... When I first installed Ubuntu I never had the problem of the login screen being so "large," but as of 2 days ago it is just too big. [05:14] Templar_Xion hmm not disabled. i'm not sure popups were present. just allot of tabs with a bunch of porn site (porntube for instance). the history has youtube listed as the last site (well, homepage then youtube.com) [05:14] Shoopuf, what size, resolution is your samsung, and is it a crt or lcd? [05:14] l815: You probably should search for left over copies of and links to libflashplayer.so, before installing 10 again. [05:14] when i try to make a new folder in my home folder i get the message that theres one called that allreddy in my home folder , but when i looked for it there isnt one, can anyone help? [05:14] Anyone using OpenDNS can try http://gulus.usherbrooke.ca/ (Primary CAN mirror) [05:14] rockenrolam xtknight: Yes, I Have it. [05:14] OPenDNS marks it as phishing somehow === Trini8miami is now known as akuma55 [05:14] bobertdos, alright, thanks [05:15] chriswr: whats the name of folder? [05:15] freetube: Well it's pretty blatant that someone was perusing porn on your system. Change the homepage back to your normal homepage and see if the popups go away [05:15] l815: Delete all traces of it that you can find and then try installing the beta again. [05:15] xtknight: 17 inch, 1280x1024, LCD... Only happens with the Login Screen, everything else is fine on the monitor [05:15] shujah: ./screenlets [05:15] rockenrolam xtknight: But the plugin doesn't works over firefox. [05:15] freetube: A lot of porn sites give a popup to set the site as the default homepage. [05:15] Shoopuf, ok what happens with the gdm login is bigger than the screen? are you able to scroll? is stuff simply not centered? how did you perceive it as too big? [05:15] bobertdos, you wouldnt happen to know if there is a deb installer somewhere? [05:15] for beta 10 that is [05:15] opewn up your home folder press ctrl+h and see if screenlets is already present [05:15] Davi2, i haven't had good luck with java in general [05:16] !java | Davi2, but hopefully this helps [05:16] Davi2, but hopefully this helps: To install a Java runtime/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java6-jre from the !Multiverse repository [05:16] xtknight: Stuff is simply not centered. Normally the "Login" box is exact center, but now it's off to the bottom-right a bit and no no scrolling. [05:16] Shoopuf, can you pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file? [05:16] how can I use Amarok to sincronize videos to my ipod ? [05:16] shujah: ok that did the trick , thnx [05:16] l815: Not that I've seen, though that doesn't mean there isn't one. [05:16] Templar_Xion the home page is not set to a porn site. it is the correct site. that's why i'm wondering if someone stumbled into porn through youtube maybe. or somehow an infection occurred. i guess it maybe would have occurred although nothing did occur given the browser/os combination though. it was just the initial "won't go away without killing browser" type site [05:16] xtknight: I did it, but the firefox plugin doesn't work :( [05:17] Davi2, yeah as i say, i have had the plugin load and still most applets stay gray. is that the problem? [05:17] freetube: But now it is remedied? [05:17] bobertdos, i'll try that .rpm conversion tool [05:17] chriswr: in linux folders starting from . are always hidden [05:17] !alien [05:17] RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous) [05:17] chriswr:: Have you tried refreshing your home directory to see if ones you've created show up? [05:17] hi..guys [05:18] bobertdos: shujah got it for me , it was just hidden [05:18] xtknight:ermm on the help doesn't talk about amd64... [05:18] hiya kiki [05:18] Templar_Xion well after i killed the browser and started it back up without reopening the old tabs (since firefox saves tabs when crashed) it does not appear infected (no porn sites pop up as tabs nor search bars of any kind). [05:18] chriswr: Okey-dokey, just checking [05:18] xtknight: http://paste.ubuntu.com/26120/ [05:18] pls help me.... [05:18] Davi2, well how is it not working? do you see it in about:plugins and if so, do applets come up as a gray box? [05:18] how can we help you [05:18] how can I use Amarok to sincronize videos to my ipod ? [05:19] freetube: That is not an infection, it is just a feature of Firefox. It just happened that there were multiple tabs that had pop-up porn sites. If you don't open tabs then it is gone and not malware. [05:19] Shoopuf, i see modes higher than 1280x1024 in your xorg. remove these and see what happens. you can remove the modelines containing anything over 1280x1024 and remove them from the "modes" too [05:19] kiki_, what may we do for you? [05:20] Shoopuf, you might have used displayconfig-gtk to configure your panel. that doesn't work with the nvidia driver real well. to configure nvidia, you can use the package nvidia-settings [05:20] hi. I'm having issues installing/running ArgoUML on Ubuntu. when argouml starts up, all I get is a blank screen, no menus, etc. Can anyone point me to a resource to help fix this? [05:20] Templar_Xion right- i guess it was a bad click by my dad on youtube to a third party site with malicious content. when the browser crashed he didn't reopen it. I guess when i opened it the things then came up [05:20] xtknight: Java plugin doesn't apprear there. [05:20] Shoopuf, gdm(login screen) can use a different resolution than GNOME chooses, which is why it would happen in only one mode [05:20] ok, I've added what I think is the correct option, now /etc/init.d/named restart fails .. if I comment out my option it works.. does named log anywhere the reason it can't restart? [05:20] Davi2: have you tried ubuntu-restritec-extras ? it does the trick for me [05:21] Templar_Xion it sure felt like i was on windows. never have i experienced that in 12 years of using linux [05:21] zcat[1], /var/log is a generic log location [05:21] freetube: There was no malicious content, it just sounds like he started looking at porn and closed out Firefox without knowing abut the saved-tabs options. There is no malware. [05:21] Davi2, hmm [05:21] xtknight: Yes my friend. [05:21] freetube: It was re-opening a multitude of porn sites that already allowed pop-ups made it freak out, nothing else. [05:21] Davi2, i'll give that a try [05:21] Templar_Xion well i had to kill the browser because the site kept popping up a message insisting i install activex something or other. [05:21] and get back to you [05:21] xtknight: ok [05:22] freetube: That's a website trying to do stuff, it's not malware, just annoying. [05:22] xtknight: OK I'm gonna restart and see if it worked, I got rid of anything larger than 1280x1024 [05:22] ok [05:22] freetube: If you don't want it to happen again just tell your dad to not browse porn on your computer. [05:22] freetube: check you homepage and bookmarks, then delete all temp data then restart firefox [05:22] Davi2: try this one: icedtea-gcjwebplugin [05:22] how can I use Amarok to sincronize videos to my ipod ? [05:22] shujah: It's gone, it was just saved-tabs reopening on a bunch of pr0n sites. [05:22] Templar_Xion probably right. i still was not expecting it. [05:22] can anybody help me? [05:22] uhukss [05:23] ok, I've added what I think is the correct option, now /etc/init.d/named restart fails .. if I comment out my option it works.. does named log anywhere the reason it can't restart? === ubuntu is now known as termitor [05:23] then it someone was watching porn .. whats the big deal? [05:24] zcat[1]: Try /var/log/syslog or /var/log/named if the latter exists [05:24] how can I use Amarok to sincronize videos to my ipod ? [05:24] shujah: freetube wasn't sure what happened when s/he opened up firefox to tons of popups :) [05:24] Davi2, i don't think Sun Java is supported on AMD64 [05:24] i don't see it in my plugins, either, and remember being told tihs [05:24] defeats the point of java doesnt it [05:24] silly [05:25] write once run anywhere [05:25] my ass [05:25] xtknight: But why i can not install it [05:25] shujah: I don't care about the porn. i was more concerned that some nefarious site was able to hihack the system. === Gumby` is now known as Gumby [05:25] freetube, Linux doesn't use ActiveX controls [05:26] shuhah: seeing my browser taken over like that is a shock... very surprised. [05:26] Davi2: have you tried this one icedtea-gcjwebplugin ? [05:26] Davi2, maybe it's just ubuntu that doesn't have a package for java. honestly i dont know. [05:26] i mean sun has x64 linux stuff here. http://www.java.com/en/download/linux_manual.jsp?locale=en&host=www.java.com:80 [05:26] on ubuntu most any script/malware can do is chnage your homepage or add porn/ware sites to your bookmarks nothing to be worried bout [05:26] freetube: It's over now, no worries, kay? [05:26] D'oh .. had 192.168..0/24; instead of 192.168.0.0/24; -- finally it works, (I hope.. haven't tested that it's actually allowing me to do lookups yet) [05:26] zcat[1]: Was it in syslog or a config file? [05:26] Davi2, try adding the Medibuntu repos and installing jre or openjre? [05:26] for 64bit amd java use this guide > http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Install_firefox_with_java_on_amd64 [05:26] spoontastic: i know it does not use activex. none-the-less that wasn't the issue. the issue was weather or not some vulnerabilities are being actively taken advantage of these days or if my concerns are not justified.

[05:27] freetube, ive never heard of anyone using ubuntu having their pc taken over with spyware of any kind [05:27] <[TiZ]> it looks like http://launchpadlibrarian.net/12505687/Screenshot.png (see bottom window) instead. It made Sans look bigger. Is there any way I can fix this? [05:27] <[TiZ]> Aw, crud. [05:27] how can i connect to webchat server?? [05:28] anyone can help ,e [05:28] <[TiZ]> I didn't have the whole thing ready. [05:28] anyone can help me [05:28] freetube, there is a java exploit that can allow a remote user to get into your system, but it requires you to access a page that mimicks your router interface -- other than that, the OS is generally secure against hacks === CO_VIRUS is now known as co_fa [05:28] back to the drawing board... here's what I added in /etc/bind/named.conf.options; [05:28] allow-recursion {127.0.0.0/8; 10.0.0.0/8; 192.168.0.0/16;}; [05:28] xtknight: me either. still.. thought i'd ask. thought maybe i missed the news article announcing some new malware/spyware compatible linux thingy.... [05:28] na [05:28] or else, i missed it too ;) [05:28] wanted: what the problem [05:28] Now, that SHOULD let machines in the 192.168.1.0/24 subnet look up things like google.com, right? [05:29] anyway- on linux anything like that is news worthy. [05:29] I was wondering, If I have the default programs for Ubuntu 8.04.1, and let's say I update a few programs like Pidgin and Banshee, is there a way to check what version the default ubuntu 8.04.1 should be? [05:29] ubunoob, it's hard to say. ubuntu's pidgin and banshee packages can be updated over time due to security problems. but generaly the minor version is the same unless you supplanted ubuntu's package with another [05:29] garyx: Do you have anything against GTK-pod? If not, you might want to read this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/iPodVideoTransferring [05:29] freetube, that sounds like a platform-independent attack to me [05:29] <[TiZ]> I'm trying to get Autohinting working well on my system. I followed a how-to to enable it, but it messed up my Sans font (Vera Sans). It was supposed to come out looking like http://hmm.iglu.sk/~dulus/ubuntu/fonts/02-settings.png but it looks like http://launchpadlibrarian.net/12505687/Screenshot.png (see bottom window) instead. It made Sans look bigger, and certain characters, such as f and i right next to each other, are rendered smaller. [05:29] <[TiZ]> Is there any way I can fix this? [05:30] xtknight: OK I made the xorg.conf changes and saved and restarted but the same problem happened. This is what my xorg.conf looks like now (I wonder if the "NVIDIA X Server Settings" is what messed this all up:() http://paste.ubuntu.com/26121/ [05:30] [TiZ], i think this is the reason autohinting works [05:30] <[TiZ]> ...huh? [05:31] ah I see, thanks xtknight, I was just curios because I recently learned exactly why Ubuntu keeps programs the way they are w/out updates, and I'd like to stick to that philosophy [05:31] <[TiZ]> No, it's not working right. Compare the two screenshots. [05:31] so i installed flash 10 and confirmed it, but firefox is saying it's not installed -_- [05:31] l815: restart firefox [05:32] hi, i'm having gpg / authenication errors with update-manager in gusty, how can i resolve them? [05:32] [TiZ], sure the other screenshot is with the same fonts? [05:32] i can pastebin the errors if you need to see them [05:32] shujah, i have a few times :P [05:32] :P about:plugins [05:32] what else am I missing? [05:33] Shoopuf, pastebin /etc/gdm/gdm.conf [05:33] garyx: I'd try gtkpod-aac first of course. [05:33] Question: Is there a way to turn of the Rhythmbox feature that displays a song change every time with a pop up from the task bar? [05:33] reZo: you could choose another mirror [05:33] <[TiZ]> Well I would think so. [05:33] <[TiZ]> AFK for a while. [05:33] rockenrola: okay [05:33] hm nothings listed under about:plugins for flash, but synaptic says it's installed >.< [05:33] !ping in num cucu [05:33] hello when running apt-get upgrade i get this error message "E: The package kdelibs5-data needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it."

[05:34] should i still be installing the boot loader inside the parittion where ubuntu goes in order to avoid vista dual boot issues ? [05:34] ok [05:35] Palace_Chan: seperate hd or same [05:36] shujah: vista on sda and ubuntu on sdb (separate physical disks) [05:36] l815: try "sudo updatedb" .. let that finish and "locate libflashplayer.so" to see where you have this file, could be more than one and firefox isn't picking up the latest one .. [05:36] Palace_chan: then install grub on sdb [05:36] how do i add packman to repository via command line on edgy(6.10)? [05:36] isa268[FAN]: Off-hand, I can't think of much here except invoking sudo apt-get update to refresh the mirror list. [05:37] xtknight: I dunno if it's related but about 10 restarts ago Ubuntu would hang a little before the login screen appeared too... [05:37] ok ive tried everything somebody gonna help me [05:37] shujah: i can choose between sdb or sdb1..... [05:37] Palace_chan: but you will have to change boot priority of sdb to first before installing ubuntu [05:37] Really need help with this I have a Linksys WPC54GS ver. 2 wireless PCMI card, I need it to work which it isnt Please help [05:37] shujah: what about using easyBCD ? [05:38] how do i partition a 2nd harddrive using gparted [05:38] what should it look like? [05:38] Palace_Chan: ofcourse you can but if you are using seperate hard drives you really dont need it [05:38] hi all [05:38] Shoopuf, hmmm well you could post /var/log/Xorg.0.log and /var/log/gdm/:0.log i am grasping for straws here [05:39] razorsharpmonkey: Have you already tried using a CD or DVD? [05:39] razorsharpmonkey: whats the problem? [05:39] glitsj16, so i found where it's installed (flash 10), how do I make firefox recognize it? [05:39] xtknight: thanks for hangin in there with me... it's a minor problem but an annoyance nonetheless... will post the logs [05:39] shujah: i see, so before i proceed with installation here...boot loader goes in /dev/sdb or /dev/sdb1 ? [05:39] I am new to ubuntu, are there any good howtos on getting my intel video drivers loaded [05:39] bobertdos : with gtkpod i can sincronize music only [05:39] ok what setting do i need to use on the dvd [05:39] xorg doesnt look like its using any thing at the moment [05:39] my Chinese SCIM is not working properly in gnome-terminal, can you give me advices or assistance? [05:39] is it possible to remove kde from kde with adept manager? [05:40] garyx: Did you install gtkpod-aac? [05:40] l815: first, set the firefox about config key "plugin.expose_full_path" to true so the output shows exact locations, and look where your other plugins are being picked up from [05:40] i gonna do now [05:40] In /etc/fstab file, can i set the fsck option to '1' for non ext2/3 partition? [05:40] Palace_Chan: boot loader goes to the hard drive which will boot first. so to change the boot loader first make the hard drive on which you will run ubuntu the first hard drive to boot i.e. change the boot priority from bios [05:40] bobertdos thanks for your help it looks like "sudo dpkg --remove --force-remove-reinstreq kdelibs5-data" removed it and i just reinstalled [05:40] glitsj16, alright thanks [05:41] l815: after finding that path, drop the latest libflashplayer.so in there and restart the fox to check [05:41] glitsj16: Ooh, that's a good general tip, even. I'll have to remember that! [05:41] my Chinese SCIM is not working properly in gnome-terminal, can you give me advices or assistance? [05:41] shujah: yes i get that part, but as to installing the boot loader...the installer here lets me choose between just sdb or sdb1 (that being the ext3 partition of sdb with ubuntu in it) [05:41] henux: what is "SCIM" [05:41] isa268[FAN]: fair enough :) [05:41] xtknight: OK here are those 2 logs... Worse that happens is I'll just set autologin since logging in isn't too necessary. http://paste.ubuntu.com/26123/ [05:41] shujah: should i just choose sdb though to get it to run when i switch the priority in the bios ? [05:42] nano_: Smart Common Input method [05:42] nano_: tool to write using Asian scripts [05:42] shujah can i pm u [05:42] like Chinese or Thai [05:42] henux: i c, [05:42] Shoopuf, hmmm am i right that that is an analog-only monitor? [05:42] are there any linux games out there similar in gameplay to the first unreal tournament (the game of the year edition )? [05:42] bobertdos: could be helpfull yes, recently installed flah player 10 beta 2 myself and had similar issues, dropping it in the correct location works a treat [05:43] Hi! Is there a software that can change several mp3 files to ogg format without having to do it one by one? Thanks in advance? [05:43] rand0m: Quake [05:43] doesnt UT have a linux version? [05:43] really ? [05:43] gotoma: soundconverter runs in batch mode [05:43] xtknight: it is both analog and digital... but i use the analog wire [05:44] Thanks a lot. [05:45] glitsj16, thanks man it worked :) [05:45] xtknight: Whoops, seems I had "digital" selected under the "Screen and Graphics" application. :P changed it to analog [05:45] l815: hope flash10 solves your issues, very welcome [05:45] what in the world! [05:45] my computer is acting "funny" [05:45] Shoopuf, if it is possible i would try the digital and see if it works. if not, check if the analog signal is properly autotuned at the gdm screen? [05:46] unfortunately i still cant play another audio while play flash and vise versa :/ [05:46] !hda | tjohnson [05:46] Sorry, I don't know anything about hda [05:46] how can i check the resolution of a video file? [05:46] Shoopuf, ok i would not use screens & Graphics hmm i just haven't had a good experience with it i guess. it will add all those big modes. not that that's a problem but it might hinder functionality of the more proper nvidia-settings program [05:46] xtknight: OK i'll fiddle with that then come back, thanks for the help i really appreciate it [05:46] !kernel [05:46] The core of the Ubuntu Operating System is the Linux kernel: see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel - You shouldn't have to compile your own, but if you're convinced you do, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile - See also: /msg ubottu stages [05:46] Is anybody very familiar with /etc/fstab [05:47] ???

[05:47] l815: that's another known issue, i used http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4928900 (part a & b) to solve flash sound hijacking [05:47] Shoopuf, nah you can just avoid using it. but having it installed wont hurt anything [05:47] ok, so it took me an hour to get my internet working again after I broke it trying to connect to my router. how do I connect to my router? [05:48] Is my pppoe connection getting in the way? [05:48] Shoopuf, if you want to uninstall, displayconfig-gtk is the package [05:48] xtknight: I installed a lot of garbage recently (advanced desktop effects settings) (nvidia x server settings) kinda wish i hadnt now :( [05:48] glitsj16, i'll give it a shot [05:48] Shoopuf, speakoing of which, do you use Compiz? [05:48] God, I hate Ubuntu. [05:48] OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0-b09) is installed but the java hp says: Java Runtime Environment is not working on your system. I have reinstalled and there were no changes. Does anyone can help me? [05:48] Flannel: In /etc/fstab file, can i set the fsck option to '1' for non ext2/3 partition?

[05:49] nano_: Yes. Anything fsck supports (type fsck and hit tab twice, and you'll see the array of possibilities) [05:49] you'd think if my internet is broken, it couldn't get in the way of me connecting to my router. BUT YOU'D BE WRONG. [05:49] glitsj16, how can I tell what I have for audio? [05:49] Shoopuf, i would try disabling destkop effects and see what hapens [05:50] and you know what's great? how useless ifup and ifdown and ifconfig are. they do NOTHING. I have to reboot the computer like I was using a Microsoft OS. [05:50] anyone know how to get Guild Wars running on ubuntu, I am using Wine 1.1.0 and when I load Guild Wars, screen goes to 800x600 resolution, I get the mouse, but nothing else, no sound, no screen, and I have to manual shutdown and reboot. can someone point me to a guide or explain to me how to fix this please [05:50] what is the nicest/easiest way to get kernel 2.6.25 (or 26) running in hardy (with nvidia drivers)? [05:50] Chaotic_Descent: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart [05:51] l815: i'm on xubuntu (slightly different), but there's a menu in ubuntu admin somewhere where you can check default sound server, maybe someone here knows the correct entree for that [05:51] Chaotic_Descent, have you looked at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=82879? [05:51] demfrax, have u checking winehq.org appdb about the game? [05:51] askvicto1, latest nvidia drivers have prelim support for 2.6.26. google "Master kernel thread" for ubuntu. there is a great guide on using debian make-kpkg to make a kernel deb [05:51] Anyone here running Ubuntu inside VMWare Workstation? I'm having issues getting my mouse scroll wheel working(although `xev` sees it) [05:51] if i install the boot thing in my second hd, how will it know windows is on my first drive and thus prompt me at boot ? [05:51] bobertdos, My sound is working is my video that isnt. I am trying to get compiz working [05:51] can anyone tell me how /etc/acpi/resume.d scripts work? They aren't executed after resuming for some reason. Thanks. [05:51] oops, that's kind of old [05:51] glitsj16, right click volume preferences, it says I'm using hda intel alsa [05:51] xxploit: yeah they gave me a .php file, yet didnt tell me what to do with it or any instructions on how to make the game work [05:51] can someone give info regard to Ubuntu Server Edition CD ? === wanted is now known as beaufOrt [05:51] Ghost-R: What do you want to know? [05:51] askvicto1, well here ya go http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=311158 [05:52] Flannel: my understanding is that only the "/" entry in /etc/fstab should have the '1' for fsck; but not all entries? [05:52] Flannel, is it 32 or 64 bit ? [05:52] l815: yes, but that doesn't rule out using pulseaudio as that runs on top of alsa [05:52] Ghost-R: It can be either [05:52] I know this is an ubuntu IRC but is someone good with Javascript? [05:52] Ghost-R, ubuntu has 32bit and 64bit versions of all the official kinds [05:52] nano_: Usually root is 1, other partitions are 2, and everything else is 0 [05:52] demfrax, guild wars is platinum status so should work flawlessly [05:52] hmm [05:52] Firefox keeps on crashing with a segmentation fault multiple times in each session. How do I solve it? [05:52] glitsj16, ahh okay [05:52] Vereux: #javascript [05:52] Oh yeah, sorry, tjohnson. My mind is in several different places at the moment. [05:52] xtknight: uh oh, tried to open "Login Window" preferences and got the error "GDM is not running." [05:52] lol [05:52] thanks [05:53] Flannel: so my dos/ntfs partitions would be '2' [05:53] tjohnson: I would look through the wiki for intel related tutorials. [05:53] nano_: yes [05:53] Ghost-R, use 64bit only if you do lots of math processing on the server or have over 3.5G of RAM... otherwise i would stick with 32bit for ease of compatibility [05:53] Flannel: thnx [05:53] xtknight: thanks; [05:53] dual boot, vista and hardy, two separate drives sda and sdb....got windows on sda...im putting ubuntu with its swap on sdb...grub goes on sdb right ? then change bios to hit that one first and magically itll let me choose ? [05:53] xxploit: it doesnt though, like I said, I get the cursor, the screen goes 800x600 yet nothing else [05:53] l815: try "pidof pulseaudio" , if that returns a number (of a running process) you'll know if pulseaudio is at least running, i think if it is it's a pretty safe bet your ubuntu uses it by default [05:53] spoontastic: I HAD pppoe working before. it's working again now. are there some commands you have to use to enable and disable pppoe? I think it mentioned them when I ran pppoeconf, but if I run that again, I'm sure I'll get disconnected from here. [05:53] Ghost-R: With a server, you probably wont have any compatability problems with 32bit. I'd say go 64 if you support it [05:54] glitsj16, i get back "5936" [05:54] demfrax, http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Guild_Wars_on_Wine [05:54] What variables are collected in the directory /proc/sys/kernel? [05:54] Flannel: thanks. I'll try that next time. [05:54] Chaotic_Descent, I don't know offhand, sorry [05:54] xtknight, Flannel okie thanQ [05:54] l815: in that case pulseaudio seems to be your default sound server and you can go ahead with the changes that page suggests to solve the flash issues [05:54] Just built a new machine with 4GB RAM. Ubuntu boots just fine, but if I try to run memtest86+ from the grub boot screen I see "Error 28: Selected item cannot fit into memory" [05:55] glitsj16, okay, i'm going to reboot for changes [05:55] rage rage rage. [05:56] I hate machines. [05:56] Chaotic_Descent: you never got to give the ifconfig output to me ?! [05:56] they freakin jerk me around constantly. make me feel like a retard. [05:57] rockenrola: I don't know how to do one of those website pastey things. [05:57] I know they exist, but I'm fucking incompetant. [05:57] I don't remember anything. I don't have anything bookmarked. I can't remember the right search words. [05:57] Okay guys here a question. I have a dual boot with Hardy and Vista. can I add the windows partition to my ubuntu one or can I reformat the windows to it will act as another drive? [05:58] Chaotic_Descent: paste the output in http://paste.ubuntu.com. it will give you a link, that you paste here [05:58] and besides... I'm not connected to my router right now, so what good will it do you? and if I do connect to my router, I don't know how long it will take for me to get the internet working and come back and tell you. [05:58] just to not flood this place [05:59] oh, didn't know that [05:59] Chaotic_Descent: pastebin.com ? [05:59] Please, does anyone can help. I'm almost giving up. There is a java virtual keybord in my bank site for password purposes. I have OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0-b09) already installed. What more can i do? [05:59] I cant load the java [05:59] I don't know if hooking up the internet and the router on two different connections is going to work anyways. [06:00] onisciente why can't you load java? [06:00] onisciente: if openjdk wont work download sun java [06:00] Chaotic_Descent: what is your main goal? [06:00] Okay guys here a question. I have a dual boot with Hardy and Vista. can I add the windows partition to my ubuntu one or can I reformat the windows to it will act as another drive? [06:00] onisciente: your bank might rely on Sun's java JRE instead of the OpenJDK one, have you tried installing that to check if it changes anything ? [06:00] bob3213243: Yes. [06:00] rockenrola: to get pppoe working on my router. which requires me to connect to my router through Ubuntu to set it up, which I was able to do once, and I have no idea how the hell I managed to do it. [06:01] bob3213243: It is suposed to be loaded, but the virtual java keybord doesnt load. [06:01] I'm a worthless human being that contributes nothing. what the hell is the point of all this work? [06:01] shujah: i tried sun java but didn't so difference. [06:01] I come in here and demand people help me. blah. [06:01] flannel which one? how? and without formatting my present system? [06:02] Chaotic_Descent: Please take offtopic chatter to #ubuntu-offtopic, thanks [06:02] sorry. [06:02] glitsj16: i removed OpenJDk and installed the Sun, but i found no difference. [06:02] bob3213243: either. And yeah. The latter is easy and won't require a liveCD. The former is more than likely possible (depending on sizes/how full your Ubuntu is/where the partitions are it may be more/less difficult) but you'll need a liveCD [06:02] glitsj16, thanks it seems to have worked :D [06:02] glitsj16: is there a command line for apt-get sun java? [06:03] glitsj16: i tried one but fail to find the file [06:03] onisciente: hmm, can't think of anything else, besides contacting your bank's support line [06:03] onisciente what browser are you using? [06:03] l815: nice :) [06:03] bob3213243: firefox [06:03] I'll just... run pppoeconf again... find out what the commands are... maybe for some reason the commands that disable pppoe will alone be enough to allow me to connect to my router... [06:04] onisciente have you been able to use other java apps? [06:04] onisciente: do you need the full JRE or just the browser plugin ? [06:04] glitsj16: i think that is just the browser... i just wanna load this virtual keybord [06:05] bob3213243 - I sent you private messages regarding dual boot with vista. hope it helps [06:05] bob3213243: i don't know any other. [06:05] Chaotic_Descent: it should be simple to connect you router to your pc [06:05] onisciente: have you tried installing sun-java6-plugin in that case ? [06:06] glitsj16: i didn't find it in the repository [06:06] glitsj16: i tried apt-get and the link is lost, i think [06:06] onisciente: i'll check to see in which repo that file actually resides, hang on a sec [06:07] glitsj16: thanks... [06:08] onisciente, gcjwebplugin-4.2 have u tried this? [06:08] I just installed 8.0.4.1 i386 on a notebook.

Throw in your nvidia card type and ubuntu drivers, there should be some how-tos [06:46]  aNoeL: are welcome, but what did I do for you? lol [06:46] XanghiF01: could it be because at one point in time i downloaded drivers from the nvidia site and installed them manually?

[06:47] bulazeem: Then hang out and keep askin [06:48] necromxxx, oh, well I don't know why you would need build-essential to install sudo, but if you do, then first become root with "su -" (you'll need the root password) [06:48] Templar_Xion, yah i figured, but I see so many people running beta with no complaints [06:48] bob3213243: No, you'll have to reinstall everything [06:48] hi [06:48] rat32: check this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1213923#post1213923 [06:48] l815: I just see 'beta' and go 'meh it's beta suck it up' [06:48] hey, I'm trying to install xubuntu on an old computer using the alternate CD (it is too old to boot into the live CD). My C drive (Win. 98 if you need to know) has about 2.2 GB of empty space on it, but the partition manager on the CD says there is only 8.1 MB of free space on it. All I want to do is make it install xubuntu with the free space on the C drive. [06:48] how do i find out what my color depth is? [06:48] JZA: can you open synaptic and look for o3spaces-server_2.2_generic and see what its actually called? [06:48] Templar_Xion, lol yah [06:48] l815: Well look at it this way, you got further than you were an hour or two ago. [06:49] l815: Report it to flash developers and maybe you'll get a patch [06:49] templar_xion thanks man. ;) [06:49] su what? [06:49] Templar_Xion: do you think that i'm having any trouble because a few months ago i manually installed nvidia drivers from the nvidia website instead of the drivers from synaptic? [06:49] bob3213243: Glad to be of help :D [06:49] rockenrola: its loading [06:49] don't get me wrong, i didnt mean to sound like i was complaining, just asking if anyone else had the same issue [06:49] bulazeem: Yeah that could throw a monkey wrench into the equation. [06:49] l815: can't confirm the white spots no, also running the 10 beta 2 [06:49] l815: I'm not tkaing it that way, I'm just giving you my advice :D [06:50] Templar_Xion: any idea how i can remove that? i just tried sudo apt-get remove nvidia* i don't think that did the trick though [06:50] Templar_Xion, k :) [06:50] bulazeem look up nv installs [06:50] glitsj16, did you play any videos with a lot of black? [06:50] bulazeem: How did you install it? [06:50] I have an onboard sound and a soundcard, I select the card in Sound Prefs and click test, the sound works with that test button, but nowhere else...anybody care to help? [06:50] rockenrola: nice, thanks [06:50] PastorBones: Check to see if the audio programs are muted. [06:51] no they are not...even system sounds on the next tab won't play [06:51] Jordan_U: i like closed out my desktop to a black screen and typed in the stuff to launch the nvidia driver that i had downloaded [06:51] l815: loads of darkish battlestar galactica episodes lol, no trouble at all (not plugging adobe's flash, just an honest reply) [06:51] oh sweet, thanks :) [06:51] Don't laugh too hard, but I'm setting up a bootable USB drive and need /boot/ubninit, but can't find it on the web. I'm looking through mirrors, but can't find an exploded filesystem that includes /boot. Can someone point me the right direction? [06:51] glitsj16, lol === The_JoKer is now known as SplinTer0616 [06:52] is there any Wi-fi Protected Setup software for ubuntu? [06:52] bulazeem: sudo ./NVIDIA* --uninstall [06:52] I accidently removed the top panel in Gnome. I got the panel back, and most of the stuff on it, but I don't see the system tray in the applets list. How do I get it back? [06:53] Jordan_U: sudo: ./NVIDIA*: command not found [06:53] bulazeem: In the future try to stick with packages from the repositories or at least .debs, that way they can be controlled ( and removed ) by the package manager [06:53] I think it's still trying to use the onboard audio because hardware test only finds that one [06:53] Keaton: I think you're looking for the Notification Applet [06:53] how do I disable onboard audio? [06:54] necromxxx, did you get it worked out? su - to make yourself root, then apt-get install build-essential [06:54] PastorBones: Try headphones [06:54] Keaton: do you mean the Notification Area where like the Network applet shows? [06:54] yes [06:54] PastorBones: you can disable onboard sound from within your BIOS, 99% of the time [06:54] wbmj: That's the one, thanks. [06:54] Hamled, necromxxx, sudo apt-get install build-essential, you don't need to su. Ever. [06:54] PastorBones: You need to do that within your BIOS. [06:54] NO problem [06:54] i just sudo-apt-get-installed emacs but it doesnt appear in the applications drop down menu [06:54] glitsj16, this is a bad example, but look at the word closely http://i37.tinypic.com/ve5icz.png [06:54] thanks I will try any other suggestions on what might be causing this problem? [06:54] why would that be ? [06:54] Flannel, he just said he was trying to install sudo, when I gave him that advice [06:54] Oy, I can build a webserver in my sleep, but finding one little gui applet? Much too hard. :P [06:54] well i just did su to change root, and then i was finally able to run the installer for the driver i want [06:55] Flannel, as to why he doesn't have sudo or needs to install build-essential to get sudo, don't know [06:55] now i have to find some ALSA thing [06:55] Hamled: Ah. We should get to the original reasons then. [06:55] Templar_Xion: I appreciate the encouragement, by the way :) [06:55] necromxxx: Why don't you have sudo? What all has happened? [06:55] bobertdos: For? [06:55] Flannel, be my guest [06:56] Templar_Xion: telling me I made a good call, haha [06:56] who "invented" that if i use software, this mean that i agree with license agreement? sound pretty much retarded to me. and if you count a fact that almost no one read or understand agreements, lol... [06:56] Jordan_U: any other ideas for removing it? [06:56] bobertdos: Ah haha [06:56] Hello everyone. I am unable to use my microsoft wireless mouse with ubuntu hardy heron. I plug it in and the dongle lights up like everything is ok. But when i move the mouse it doesnt work. Can someone please help me in getting it to work? [06:56] Mrevox11: Have you allowed restricted drivers? [06:56] the only restricted driver I have on is my ATI driver. [06:56] on my wifi AP, I use both AES and TKIP as my cipher type, which option should I select on the wireless key input window when trying to authenticate to the AP? [06:57] Hamled: Usually when someone asks a simple question about doing something very advanced ( like asking how to become root to compile something from source, especially custom compiling sudo ) it's good to try to find out their goal and if there is a better way to accomplish it. [06:57] hi there my server is not being bullet proof enough and its not picking up my monitor -- any ideas ?... (its an ati driver open source) [06:57] Its the only one allowed to be selected. [06:57] how do i allow universe and all those repositories on hardy ? [06:57] Mrevox11: Did you associate the mouse with the dongle? [06:57] <`Matir> cmndkeen, what do you mean? [06:57] rat32: Hardy has them enabled by default [06:57] what is the login manager name that ubuntu uses? gdm? [06:57] l815: did some updates, will check that link [06:57] !medibuntu [06:57] medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org [06:57] Yes its automatic [06:57] !components | rat32 [06:57] rat32: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecommendedSources for the recommended way to set up your repositories [06:57] !gdm [06:57] bulazeem: Did the uninstaller fail ? [06:57] Sorry, I don't know anything about gdm [06:57] glitsj16, alright [06:57] Flannel: oh like all of them ? [06:57] What is the login manager name that ubuntu uses? gdm? [06:57] Mrevox11: You'll have to reconnect them if you switch operating systems. [06:57] henux: yes [06:58] rat32: main restricted universe and multiverse. The first three are definately enabled, I believe the last one is as well. [06:58] thank you [06:58] Well the thing is it works some of the time. [06:58] Anyone here compile vanilla kernel with hardy? [06:58] Flannel, I completely agree with you, although atm I'm here with my own issue to resolve and I'm not much of an expert really [06:58] Good grief... the new Hardy sound system rears its ugly friggin head again... time to reboot... again! [06:58] henux: gdmsetup [06:58] Flannel: kk thanks [06:58] Hamled: you mean Jordan_U [06:58] ok, linux doesn't support my sound card creative x-fi xtrememgamer, so i found this beta driver. i couldn't figure out how to run it in root so i looked it up and found something on sudo, so i tried installing that to no avail [06:58] It works when it wants to. [06:58] HendriXXX, , gdm, yes. I suggest going to gnome-theme.org if you're looking to "enhance" it :) [06:58] legend2440: does gdm read any files from my $HOME? [06:58] is there a file in /proc that you can echo something to power off the monitor? [06:58] typing sudo ./NVIDIA* --remove did nothing [06:59] gave me an error [06:59] hunux, I suggest going to gnome-theme.org if you're looking for more GDM themes [06:59] It worked about five mins ago and and it just stopped. [06:59] Mrevox11: no [06:59] bulazeem: What error? [06:59] Does no one else seriously ever have this problem!?! You use Firefox and Flash to do anything that plays sound and suddenly NO other sound apps work (the device is in use)... can't solve it without completely rebooting! [06:59] Flannel, that I do :) [06:59] Jordan_U: sudo: ./NVIDIA*: command not found [06:59] necromxxx: You don't need to install sudo, it's a standard utility that is installed by default [06:59] Reformer81: Sounds like an audio driver issue. [06:59] speaking of audio devices... [06:59] Templar_Xion: Started with Hardy... same hardware. [06:59] eww, lol [06:59] Does gdm read any files from my $HOME when I login? [06:59] anyone got their bug reports noticed and bugs fixed? [06:59] i just installed a sound card I can't get the sucker to work :( [06:59] <`Matir> ubunubi, look at xset dpms force off [06:59] bulazeem: Are you in the same directory you ran the installer from when you installed? [07:00] Reformer81: Sounds like the audio driver doesn't allow multiple channels and locks into the flash and causes a crash when other audio channels try to 'butt in' [07:00] Reformer81: I don't have that problem, but can't you remove the sound module and insert it back to regain sound ? [07:00] rockenrola: I don't know how to do that. [07:00] !scim [07:00] Chinese, Japanese, Korean Language input. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SCIM === Miguel is now known as Guest55087 [07:00] #macosx [07:00] `Matir: thanks [07:00] i used to have the package: emacs-color-themes on feisty, but i cant find it in my synaptic on hardy [07:00] Templar_Xion : I think you are right [07:00] Jordan_U: eek. i honestly have no idea what directory i installed it from. this could be a big prob. i installed it approx 2 months ago [07:00] wbmj: I think so too ;) [07:00] <`Matir> ubunubi, no problem [07:00] Reformer81: Are you only having this problem when using flash ( or after having used it ) ? [07:01] Hi. I have a problem with suspend-to-ram (standby). I issue the command (either console either kpowersave), it enters standby but when I want to turn it on, it takes me to a black screen that is unresponsive to any input. I have to do a hard shutdown afterwards. Any way to determine the problem ? [07:01] Templar_Xion: That doesn't explain why it would work in Gutsy but not Hardy. [07:01] henux: not sure about that [07:01] Reformer81: They changed something. [07:01] ok thank you [07:01] man page does not list any [07:01] `Matir: while that blanks my screen...it doesn't turn it fully off...and it un-blanks almost immediately [07:01] Jordan_U: That's all I can think of... it's very sporadic and I can't pinpoint it to just one specific thing. [07:01] Reformat : Gutsy didn't use PulseAudio [07:01] bulazeem: Do you remember where you downloaded the installer to? ( You can always grab it again, though you should probably try to find the same version ) [07:01] Reformer81: Not that that helps any but working hardware + upgrade software + not working software = something with software upgraded messed itu p [07:01] wbmj: I know... but even switching to ALSA doesn't help. [07:01] Reformer81: http://paste.ubuntu.com/26139/ - I did this to regain sound after hibernation. you have to change the module [07:01] <`Matir> ubunubi, weird, works for my screen [07:02] how do i sync my ipod touch with linux [07:02] Guest55087: try gtkpod [07:02] Jordan_U: i downloaded it straight to my desktop i'm pretty sure and then closed out x and installed it from a black screen [07:02] Reformer81 : Did you try disabling PusleAudio prior to enabling ALSA [07:02] Reformer81: flash doesn't work well with pulseaudio yet, right now you can make flash less stable, but have it play nice with pulseaudio by installing libflashsupport, or you can use alsa directly for everything instead of pulseaudio [07:02] l815: on that first one i see the spots, but not on a few others with lots of blacks .. might be the video itself that's not very good ? [07:02] not wirelessly [07:02] bulazeem: Is it still there? [07:03] could I have someone help me out? I just recently installed a PCI audio card (I didn't have sound before, not even onboard). I can't find anything to help me install/configure it [07:03] glitsj16, hmm, good theory. i'll try a few others [07:03] wbmj: Nope. [07:03] i'm running ubuntu hardy [07:03] how do i find out what my color depth is? [07:03] mistform: what is the sound card? [07:03] Guest55087: use gtkpod [07:03] Jordan_U: nah i deleted it after the install was successful. maybe i'll just try installing drivers that way again. i just thought it would be easier to use synaptic this time but that's doing nothing [07:03] i don't have it on my xorg.conf [07:03] nope, still isn't working [07:04] rockenrola: Well, that got it back... but that's more of a workaround than a fix. [07:04] it does not works [07:04] yah [07:04] rockenrola, SB audigy SE [07:04] Reformer81: Disable PusleAdio server in sessions ...logout/in...enable ALSA [07:04] which file was it the one that i could edit terminal shortcuts too ? bashrc or something ? [07:04] henux: from man gdm Configuration is done either by running gdmsetup or by editting the /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf (usually, could also be /etc/gdm/gdm.conf) file. The graphical tool does not support all the options possible so editting the configuration file is sometimes necessary. [07:04] !work | guest [07:04] mistform: "lspci" in a terminal, do you see the card? "lspci -vvvv" and pastebin the results [07:04] guest: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too. [07:04] Hey. What's the preferred method for executing a command/script on startup *after* the x session is started? [07:04] wbmj: Okay, I'll give that a shot. Thank you. [07:04] legend2440: yes [07:04] No prob [07:04] ubunubi: Doesn't work is a strong statement, but "does not works" is intense! [07:04] bulazeem: You can't remove with synaptic what you did not install with apt/synaptic, if you download the installer again the same file is the un-installer so just run the command I gave ( no need to install again ) [07:05] l815: scary experiment lol, try the 'first ever footage of live giant squid' one on that page if you would, no spots there for me and it's pretty dark [07:05] mistform: and what is the problem exactly? [07:05] my ipod touch wont mount [07:05] Arodon: i do not think that word means what you think it means. "session" [07:05] When I put in my FAT32 USB stick, Ubuntu gives me a popup saying "Invalid mount option when attempting to mount the volume 'SEAMONSTAR'." [07:05] Guest55087: you can thank apple for that [07:05] i know [07:05] Cusoon959: upgraded from gutsy to hardy? [07:05] Guest55087: is your ipod HPS+ or fat formatted? [07:06] sparr: no, fresh hardy install... same things happens on Linux Mint Elyssa [07:06] glitsj16, wow flash 10 seems to be lagging my browser so much i cant even search lol [07:06] ah ok. gotcha this time [07:06] ipod touch 1.1.4 firmware jailbreaked [07:06] Cusoon959: interesting. there are mounting glitches when upgrading to hardy, but nothing i know of in fresh installs. same problem with other flash storage? [07:06] l815: Disable flash for hte time being. [07:06] mistform: what is the output of "alsaconf list" ? [07:07] Guest55087: it's unlikely you'll be able to sync with it if you've heavily modified it [07:07] sparr, rockenrola, Jordan_U, http://paste.ubuntu.com/26140/ [07:07] sparr: No, other storage seems to work fine... it may be the way this is formatted (with HP's HP Format Tool on Windows) [07:07] My friend was on Windows Vista and wanted to visit the Diablo 3 site, a flash intensive site- and he couldnt view it with Firefox 3.

[07:08] l815: yes, search included there as well, pretty nice and it takes the flash load out of firefox as an added bonus ;) [07:08] I ran apt-get update/upgrade [07:08] mistform: sorry, "asoundconf list" === gentong is now known as reno [07:09] bulazeem: Then run the command again [07:09] Cusoon959: np. ty anyway [07:09] np :) [07:09] <[TiZ]> I'm trying to get Autohinting working well on my system.

[07:18] rat32, sudo apt-get install build-essential [07:18] kkk thanks [07:18] rat32: It includes the minimum you need to install from source ( which is just a little more than you need to make your own small programs ) [07:18] or search for it in synaptic [07:18] Jordan_U, I have all the packages I believe are necessary, but I still get errors on ./configure [07:19] morning peeps i seem to have a folder stuck in deleted items folder when i empty trash i get an error i cann ot restore the file either and if i try to rm -r in terminal it says theres no files there? any ideas ??

[07:20] linny: full pathname [07:20] glitsj16, haha sounds like a plan for disaster XD [07:21] but I have wine running a sakray client now instead [07:21] mistform: I think the ./configure either never existed or got removed [07:21] trash:///_gnash-0.8.3 [07:21] i draged the dir on to terminal [07:21] dragged [07:22] linny: sudo rm -r /home/YOURUSERNAME/.local/share/Trash/files [07:22] thanks :) [07:23] does anyone know if it is possible to set up my wireless so it will set my IP for a specific SSID?

[07:24] does somebody know how to add a label to a blog in blogspot? [07:24] thank you its gone [07:24] i kinda feel silly now :) [07:24] Jordan_U, that was the decompressed dir [07:24] linny: the only reason i know was cause i ran into the same issue and asked the same question :P [07:25] spoontastic: LyX ? [07:25] because i shulda fugured that but nvm its early :) [07:25] linny: and for future reference, locations file file:/// are only usable within nautulis..can't use paths like that in terminal [07:25] mistform: Can you give me a link to what you downloaded? [07:25] rat32, http://www.lyx.org/WhatIsLyX [07:26] Jordan_U: still on 800x600 resolution and the drivers are still not showing up in the hardware drivers thingy [07:26] rat32: tetex (with a bunch of stuff coming off the end, bin, base, etc etc) [07:26] Anyone familiar with ssh?

[07:27] Templar_Xion: it talks about the wireless settings but nothing about setting it so it will change my IP address when I connect to that wireless network. [07:27] KDB9000: try man iwlist [07:27] Templar_Xion: I get a username prompt for your SSH [07:28] Templar_Xion: it asks for password as it should [07:28] Thank you KDB9000 and rockenrola [07:28] Jordan_U, I typed the "cd.../RO" earlier, just to shorten it because I couldn't remember the name of the file. I was in the right one, or else change dir (cd) wouldn't have worked. [07:28] hey [07:29] Jordan_U, I have since deleted the file, but would using tilda (~./configure) change much? [07:29] I want to have a script run after X is started on boot up [07:29] mistform: No [07:29] what's the best way to do that?

I just installed ubuntu yesterday, and I updated and reinstalled flash multiple times. [07:31] Templar_Xion: iwlist is used to get more details about your wireless connection [07:31] Jordan_U: i only have one monitor and it's a dell 2005 fpw. i'm not sure why it has me down for two monitors and why the first one is labeled as 2009. [07:31] mistform: Start with learning and poking around when you get more skills and practice then do a linux course.

[07:32] Rumples: Southparkzone.com [07:32] Arodon: if you use gdm as session manager, you might want to look at /etc/gdm/init/Default or /etc/gdm/PreSession/Default [07:32] mistform: I don't know about linux+ specifically but taking a Unix / Linux coarse is a good way to learn [07:32] I'm getting this apt-get error: [07:33] sudo dpkg --configure -a [07:33] Setting up initramfs-tools (0.85eubuntu39.1) ...

[07:35] Jordan_U, I was never able to make/make build. so I didn't get to the effectiveness part.... [07:35] Jordan_U: do you think i need to change that nvidia and vesa part to nv in my xorg? [07:35] bazhang: Yes. [07:35] I am wanting to switch from the x86-generic kernel. can someone point me to the 686-kernel for both 32-bit and 64-bit systems, please. [07:35] Rumples, works fine here; do you have all the codecs and plugins installed? [07:35] how was it I change the aoss sound in firefox? [07:35] azteech: it uh, doesn't work like that [07:36] bulazeem: No, nv is the unacelerated driver ( though it may give you a better resolution than you currently have it will not give 3D acceleration ) [07:36] so the xorg that i pasted is correct as is then? [07:36] bazhang: Yes, the problem exists on all of my computers with firefox, the site works on IE, but on my vista comp, and my newly formated ubuntu both firefox browsers will not display the episodes. [07:36] bulazeem: As far as I can tell [07:37] azteech, you want to go from 32bit to 64bit? is that right? [07:37] does anybody know how to configure the on borad sound card? [07:37] Jordan_U: this is confusing :( and /etc/X11/xorg.conf is the right location for it right? maybe i messed up there [07:37] tyler-wylie: does that mean I need to download and build the kernels from source? [07:37] Carlos242: what is the card? [07:37] the sound card [07:37] azteech: If you want to move from one to the other the simplest, easiest, fastest way to do that would be a complete reinstall [07:37] !anyone | Carlos242 [07:37] Carlos242: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?

[07:38] Another website that has the same problem: hulu.com I am able to use the flash menus, but not view the episodes. [07:38] *correct [07:38] Carlos242: what is the sound card model? [07:38] azteech, the reason for this is what [07:38] azteech: do uname -a . ...you should already be using i686 if youre processor supports it [07:38] it's the on board sound of the asus p4vp-mx [07:39] bazhang: Under the plugins in firefox I have Shockwave Flash 9.0 r124.

[07:40] tyler-wylie: but is it the 686-class kernel, or the x86 .... [07:40] azteech: then that system is already using the correct most up to date supported 64bit kernel [07:40] azteech, you need this for dual core? [07:40] azteech: 686 is 32 bit, no ifs ands or buts [07:40] azteech: u do have a 64 bit kernel [07:41] bazhang: I am not familiar with user agent switcher. [07:41] hey all. anyone know what program works fast and good for converting .avi files to dvd?

[07:44] the regular updater, it says Update Manager [07:44] What's a good FTP server program to use? :) [07:44] Rumples, how did you install flash [07:44] azteech: don't get too caught up on terminology. i686 = 32 modern processors...x86_64 = modern 64bit processors....SMP=multicore/multiprocessor...

[07:45] rat32, yes [07:45] Templar_Xion: It'll be whereever your SSH is, so 22 by default. Do you need port 21 to be used for some reason? [07:46] Templar_Xion: vsftpd and proftpd are all great, but really most clients support sftp over ssh on port 22 which is just as great [07:46] ubottu: thanks [07:46] You're welcome!

[07:46] gabi, what about w32codecs from www.medibuntu.org; also what mp3 app are you using [07:46] bazhang: thanks [07:46] Templar_Xion: setting up sftp is easier, quicker, etc than ftp [07:46] Templar_Xion: FTP is actually harder than SFTP to set up. But, what do you mean "you have basic FTP"? [07:46] Templar_Xion: and it is encrypted over ssh [07:47] np [07:47] any luck finding out yet? [07:47] Flannel: ftp://domain.com :) [07:47] bazhang, what i meant is when you wrote ubuntu-restricted-extras gabi i didn't see anything, i belive i was supposed to see some instructions [07:47] sshfs is your friend. :) [07:47] Templar_Xion: ah for web browser access, not an ftp client? [07:47] james296, finding out what; we need the exact name as ubuntu uses a different package manager than those [07:47] well heres a screenshot...

[07:48] Templar_Xion: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/ftp-server.html is FTP instructions, but really, sftp is much easier to set up, and just as easy to use.

[08:07] phantomcircuit: then type startx again [08:07] Altecyrae, whast the problem? [08:07] LAMP is throwing out PHP files as downloads instead of running them [08:08] anyone know of the kernel panic for 2.6.26 in Ibex on VirtualBox? [08:08] Altecyrae, not sure sorrry [08:08] Shujah, it's hung up at "Running local boot scripts (/etc/rc.local) [08:08] coder2000: #ubuntu +1 for Intrepid [08:08] phantomcircuit, restart and try again [08:08] Altecyrae: are the files under a normal directory in the apache conf file or a cgi dir? [08:08] phantomcircuit, mine did that then it would go into low GFX mode. [08:09] hm [08:09] phantomcircuit, or give wubi a try? [08:09] safe graphicstime? [08:09] rockenrola: Erm... /var/www ? [08:09] Altecyrae: not the rigth place [08:09] phantomcircuit, what distro are you using?> [08:09] Altecyrae: Try /etc/ [08:09] That's the default web root [08:10] Altecyrae: for normal files [08:10] live cd [08:10] Altecyrae: php files have to be interpreted [08:10] ubuntu 6.06 i think [08:10] phantomcircuit, the live CD won't boot? [08:10] Wannabe, in low graphics you can tweak the system easily [08:10] nopw [08:10] nope* [08:10] Right, I know that, but if I put them in /etc or somesuch, how will Apache see them to pass them off to PHP? [08:10] does virtualbox-ose have the potential of one day running 3d games using windows xp for example? [08:10] bazhang: can you take a look at this http://paste.ubuntu.com/26149/ [08:10] phantomcircuit, why don't you try 8.04? [08:10] man the npviewer in hardy has been giving me alot of problem [08:11] s [08:11] because i only have 6.06 ? [08:11] Altecyrae: I am search the apache manual. hold on [08:11] Altecyrae: No, /var/www is the proper place. And this happens every once in a while. Purge all the related packages, and reinstall them. [08:11] theres no cd burner on this laptop [08:11] hey where do i go for help with network issues in irc with heron [08:11] acp_, saw it; what dl speeds you getting? [08:11] ...purge is a bad word [08:11] phantomcircuit, most probably 8.04 will start without any hiccups [08:11] safe graphics mode worked [08:11] what channel [08:11] Does anyone use Firestarter as their main firewall boxes's firewall? [08:11] phantomcircuit, ok, [08:11] Templar_Xion, I do :d [08:11] bazhang: Current Bit Rate=54 Mb/s [08:11] phantomcircuit, you can install it through that [08:12] acp_, and what is your dsl speed? [08:12] Altecyrae: related packages would be, apache2, apache2.2-common (apache2.2-mpm-worker? something like that) and libapache2-mod-php5. purge, don't just remove (back up any configuration changes you've made) [08:12] hi, I have the cube activated but when I release it, it always takes so long 2-3 secs until the screen is restored to full mode again. Where can I speed that up? I did not see an option [08:12] marky, what card do you have [08:13] bazhang: intel [08:13] Shujah: do you run 2x eth connections? [08:13] marky, goto sytem, prefrences, advanced desktop effts, i think the time dleay is under 3d windows, or the cube rotation [08:13] Jordan_U: ok so none of that stuff fixed it. i ended up installing the nvidia driver from the nvidia site and everything is working perfect. i was trying to avoid that because it's a bit harder and i really prefer using synaptic but atleast i have 1680x1050 again. [08:13] Templar_Xion, nope a single eth connection [08:13] bazhang: all effects work fine... just restoring from the "reduced" cube view to normal full view takes some time [08:13] acp_, when you are using the card what is the average speed you get? [08:13] marky, which one [08:13] /msg ubottu etiquette [08:14] Shujah: You filter all traffic over 1 eth connection? [08:14] bulazeem: I would suggest you try envy-ng then, it installs the newest driver but makes sure nothing breaks on kernel / Xorg updates [08:14] Jordan_U: oh now that i think of it, the problem might have been that i was missing the kernel or something. when i installed the driver from the site it said that it was missing a kernel for the driver on the computer and that it would go ahead and create it for me [08:14] bazhang: sorry analyz it again, and get back to you its really acting weired [08:14] no worries [08:14] bazhang: Until the next Xorg update :) [08:15] # DenyHosts: Wed Jul 9 14:14:03 2008 | sshd: 192.168.2.122 <-- how to stop denyhost from adding this to ban list? [08:15] Jordan_U, hehe [08:15] Jordan_U: now that i have it fixed should i go ahead and use envy-ng anyways? i have it installed but don't want to end up undoing what we just did [08:15] marky, what i think your looking for is System>Prefrences>Advanced desktop effects, goto the 3D windows, the you will see Animation speed, turn that down. [08:15] Wannabe: thx, I didnt think to check the 3d window one :) [08:15] Templar_Xion, what do you mean by filtering all traffic? I've opened some ports for P2P rest is filtered [08:15] marky, np [08:15] bazhang: already solved :) thx for the help [08:15] Wannabe: actually, I had to increase that to 1 to make it faster [08:16] Hi. [08:16] marky, i jsut realised that also [08:16] Does anyone know how to set equalizer settings for my sound card? [08:16] MindVirus, alsamixer in terminal? sin that what your looking for? [08:16] weird [08:16] Shujah: firewall box = system between the internets and your lan [08:16] Wannabe, there are no equalizer settings. [08:17] bulazeem: I would, but since your system is working now and there is a small chance it won't be with envy-ng I would just use eny-ng when you get the next update ( either before the update breaks X or envy-ng also comes with a CLI interface ) [08:17] MindVirus, is your sound working? [08:17] Yes. [08:17] Templar_Xion, yes [08:17] Wannabe, I mean, there are volume settings. [08:17] bulazeem: Or rather, *I* still wouldn't but there is no reason for you not too :) [08:17] But I'd like to change specific frequency ranges. [08:17] Shujah: Any reason yo udon't use 2nics? [08:17] hello in chan, I've just started using ubuntu on my desktop PC and I've seen some screenshots where people have somesort of icon what ever bar on the desktop in some kinda of 3D or something anyone know what this is called? [08:17] MindVirus, ah i see now, i'm not sure [08:17] how can I view a list of or query the list of currently installed packages ? [08:17] hiiiiiiii [08:18] i have doubt in C code can any one suggest me the right channel ? [08:18] dpkg -l CaptainMorgan [08:18] raj_: ##C [08:18] zeeon probably is the compiz [08:18] Zeeon: Fusion-icon maybe? [08:18] Templar_Xion, nothing specific for one thing firestarter has a good gui making policies is a wsnap [08:18] Jordan_U: alright sure thing. also thanks for all the help. you have no idea how frustrated i was earlier. you were a big help <3 [08:18] icon? [08:18] Zeeon, AWN window manager? [08:18] Zeeon, sounds like awn [08:18] Zeeon: i think you mean a dock/laucher like in OSX...probably avant window manager [08:18] bulazeem: np [08:18] Shujah Yeah thats why I like it [08:18] !awn [08:18] Avant Window Navigator is a dock-like navigation bar for the Linux desktop that positions itself at the bottom of the screen. Homepage http://wiki.awn-project.org/ Awn-Manager can be found the Gutsy !backports repository and in Universe in Hardy [08:19] In witch folder can I find the system sounds??? [08:19] bazhang, awesome! thank you [08:19] oh..sorry ..icons u.u...may be..superkaramba [08:19] np [08:19] bazhang: I heard awn is still unstable... is that true? [08:19] Thanks all i'll do a little googling with that info [08:19] marky, not sure never used it; not many complaints in here at least [08:19] Zeeon, also see screenlets [08:20] marky, i've never had a problem with it [08:20] Wannabe: thx :) [08:20] will do [08:20] i'm waiting on my WoW to update...

[08:31] no, but ubuntu forums had somewhat of an answer for me [08:31] shrimants, try ##hardware [08:31] k thanks [08:32] !pm > ceue_15 [08:32] ceue_15, please see my private message [08:32] ok i am off to work [08:32] see you all, and have an great day [08:32] :) [08:34] hi, is there an easy way to install QuakeConsole in linux? === evan__ is now known as ehc [08:35] hmm. I recently upgraded to hardy, and everything in network-admin is grayed out (even as root) [08:35] xevin_, did you try yakuake? it's very similar to quakeconsole, and it's available in the ubuntu repositories [08:35] DHowett, click the "unlock" button [08:36] just installed medusa and cant find the program anywere , can someone help? [08:36] magnetron: it's grayed out. and I'm running as superuser anyway. [08:36] chriswr, it's a command line application, just like hydra was [08:36] manetron: ill try to search for it, i only heard quakeConsole. thanks.. [08:36] magnetron: oh ok , im new to linux , ive been useing brutus [08:37] *magnetron [08:37] What password manager do you guys recommend for Ubuntu? I used to use Windows XP's KeePass Password Safe, but there doesn't seem to be an Ubuntu version... [08:38] magnetron: this is for KDE? im using GNOME... will it work? [08:38] xevin_, it will work === Shoopuffer is now known as Shooooo [08:39] Can anyone recommend a good password manager for Ubuntu? [08:39] magnetron: thanks [08:40] DHowett, run it as a regular user and click the Unlock button. it should look something like this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardyHeron/RC?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=network-rc.png [08:40] xevin_, np [08:41] magnetron: Okay. As a regular user, the unlock button (like everything else) is also disabled. Non-clickable. [08:41] Is there a way to set my Ubuntu theme/screen/resolution/stuff back to default? I was messing around with "Screen" and "Nvidia X Server Settings" and "Compiz-Fusion" and I think I kinda scrweed things up. [08:42] DHowett, what about the close and help buttons? try to click, even if it looks greyed out [08:42] dumb question but when adding a program to the panel manually via the launcher setup dialog thing, what directory should i go to in order to find icons for programs like xchat, amarok, amsn, etc ? [08:42] Shooooo, you mean your xorg.conf? just restore from the backup you made before doing things you didn't knew how to do. [08:43] magnetron: The close and help buttons are enabled.. clicking unlock does nothing. Help contains no relevant information. [08:43] elpargo: I see, so that stuff is stored in xorg.conf... Thanks, but I don't think I made a backup lol >>__<< [08:43] DHowett, is the regular user we are talking about a sudoer? [08:43] yep. [08:43] <[Michelangelo]> Hi all [08:44] so best buy sells ubuntu now [08:44] lol [08:44] DHowett, then i don't know [08:45] rand0m: a quick way to find out.. you can "locate filename".. [08:45] My sound doesn't work anymore. [08:45] I just set some stuff up with pulseaudio. [08:45] I don't know how to fix it now. [08:45] Victor```, really? please tell my friends in #ubuntu-offtopic [08:45] rand0m: for example for xchat... try "locate xchat-gnome" [08:45] magnetron: eh. thanks anyway :) [08:45] I don't even know what to tell you guys so you can help me. [08:46] oh god forbid i'm digressing from the support purpose of this channel at 3 AM CDT [08:47] Victor```, look, it's 9:46 over and i'd LOVE to talk to you a little more. i'm in #ubuntu-offtopic . please join, it'll be fun, really [08:48] rand0m: it usually depends on the app you're looking for.. for example xchat-gnome is in "/usr/bin" [08:48] Anyone know? [08:48] Any suggestions? [08:48] MindVirus: stop pulseaudio again? [08:48] MindVirus, wahst the problem again? [08:48] wow.. i can´t even figure this out. i´m pretty over adding programs to the panel [08:49] Wannabe, I decided to set up pulseaudio. [08:49] rand0m: have you tried what i told you?! [08:49] anyone still on hardy? does pidgin start for you? [08:49] MindVirus, o i see, [08:49] MindVirus, i use ALSA [08:49] asac_the_2nd, hardy is 8.04 , the latest release of ubuntu. yes, we're still on it. [08:50] can anyone tell me what command is used to append a string to the beginning of every line in a file? [08:50] djhash, im just really tired and confused. im used to the simplicity of just dragging and dropping. all this ¨command¨ and searching for icons is just frustrating me into bedtime mode. [08:50] thanks though [08:50] asac_the_2nd: I use Hardy and Pidgin works fine... But I also got the newer version from www.getdeb.net [08:50] rand0m: also if the program you want is in the Applications menu.. you simply right click on the icon and click add to panel or desktop [08:51] djhash, when i right-click, it just opens the programs [08:51] *-s [08:51] djhash, rand0m: Actually drag and drop is kinda strange, I right-click on the Panel and "add item (or whatever)" then click "Add launcher from Applications Menu" [08:52] (that's actually a pretty big beef of mine with Ubuntu, drag-n-dropping icons is just funky) [08:53] rand0m: Shooooo: you know.. i just actually tried drag and drop on the panel and it worked!!!!! [08:53] I love this IRC though it is the only one I have ever used. I wanted to know if anyone could tell me how to setup other irc's? [08:54] must be my settings somewhere then. [08:54] bob3213243: you can either create another channel on this network, open one on another network, or run your own server [08:54] drag and drop doesn´t work, right-clicking on icons opens the program too [08:54] Try opening a directory and set the view to "list" ...Then take an item off the desktop and drag it into that "list-viewed window" ... it starts getting sluggish and flashes blue then white, blue then white [08:54] Starnestommy I can setup an IRC that people would use? [08:55] anyone have any experience setting up a xubuntu startupsound? [08:55] bob3213243: yes [08:55] rand0m: Did you right-click on an empty part of the panel and click "add" then click "add a launcher from applications menu" ??? [08:55] rand0m: try what Shooooo said.. right click on the panel.. and click add to panel.. then click on add from application launcher [08:55] Starnestommy how? [08:55] Hi Guys - I'm trying to use my D-Link (DWL-G122 rev. C) USB wifi adapter with Ubuntu but it keeps dropping the connection shortly after connecting to router. Can anyone advise on better driver/how to use ndiswrapper to get it working? [08:55] Starnestommy what software to I use? [08:55] bob3213243: although there's no such thing as an irc, actually. There are irc channels, irc networks, and irc servers [08:56] bob3213243: freenode uses hyperion, but other ircds exist such as inspircd, ratbox, unreal, and charybdis [08:56] bob: http://www.networkmagazineindia.com/200109/workshop1.htm [08:56] yeah i can get to the program launcher [08:56] i just don know how to use it [08:57] rand0m: there should be a list that popped up with categories like "games" "other" "internet" .... just click open the category you want to grab the application from and click OK [08:57] rand0m: there should be two launcher selections.. one is custom, the other is a simple gui that would list you everything in the Applications menu... [08:59] need help in instalin school tools [08:59] everytime i exit wine (playing WoW), firefox will not open. Nor will gnome-terminal. oddly, xterm will open, running it w/ alt+f2. even if i try to run 'firefox-3.0' from the command line, i get no errors or anything, it just hangs there. the same thing happens with 'gnome-terminal'. the only solution is to reboot, restarting X doesn't even help. any ideas? [08:59] any1 no were virtualbox-ose for feisty is located? [09:00] my desktop doesn't have a monitor, but I want to vnc into it.. it wont let me because x11 doesn't start since there is no monitor.. how would i fix this? (how can i manually start X?) [09:00] I don't understand this ... I was looking at the information on HDAPS in Linux and supposedly the module does not support the parking of the HD head when a sudden jolt of falling is felt .... However when I search for "hdaps" in the Synaptic package manager, I find a package which says in the description that this daemon: "automatically initiates disk head parking if a fall or sliding of the laptop is detected." So what is the story? [09:00] gaten, you don't run Wine and Compiz-Fusion at the same time, do you? [09:00] yeah we´re all using different DE´s or WM´s or something because i´m not seeing those options [09:00] !info virtualbox-ose feisty [09:01] Package virtualbox-ose does not exist in feisty [09:01] !info virtualbox feisty [09:01] Package virtualbox does not exist in feisty [09:01] zetheroo, the Linux module and the daemon you found are two separate project [09:01] +s [09:02] rand0m: OK lets try again... unfortunately im at work now on windows buti 'll try to remember... first right-click an empty part of the panel... then click something like "add" ... then a small window will pop up... there should be 2 icons in that window towards the top that look like springs and say something about "launchers" ... double-click the one that says somethign like "get launcher... [09:02] ...from application menu" and if you get that far let me know === jk_ is now known as jk__ [09:02] magnetron: so will installing the daemon from Synaptic actually park the heads etc? [09:02] magnetron: no, compiz isn't showing up on my process list. however, i can't open up the appearances dialog from the system menu either it seems === jk__ is now known as jk___ [09:02] Hi Guys - I'm trying to use my D-Link (DWL-G122 rev. C) USB wifi adapter with Ubuntu but it keeps dropping the connection shortly after connecting to router. Can anyone advise on better driver/how to use ndiswrapper to get it working? [09:03] what is a good IRC channel that offers general ubuntu comunity? [09:03] s3a, virtualbox packages started appearing in gutsy - why can't you upgrade? [09:03] zetheroo, i don't know the details of how it works. [09:03] magnetron: would you know how I can load a module? [09:03] unop: feisty is the only ubuntu that works on my laptop [09:04] bob3213243, probably #ubuntu-offtopic === jk___ is now known as jk____ [09:05] how can i tell what process is using /dev/dsp? its not showing up on my process list, but something is using it === yacc_ is now known as yacc [09:05] s3a, hmm, what you'll probably need to do is build a gutsy chroot on your system then and run virtualbox within it [09:05] if you have your whole system on different partitions and within a livecd, could you not mount them all on lets say /mount/ and chroot into it and have no problems working in it? [09:05] Does anyone know how I can prevent xorg from using a certain usb keyboard on my machine? [09:06] s3a, a chroot howto exists here - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot [09:06] hi i currently have a sblive- but music players and such are only playing thru two speakers using the pulse audio driver - if i do the speaker-test -c 6 etc it plays properly to all speakers [09:06] unop: k, thx ill look at it tomorrow cuz i have to sleep now [09:06] Can I screw up my computer by using 2 OSs on the same computer? [09:06] Shooooo: no [09:06] magnetron: on the ThinkWiki it says that tp_smapi is bundled with Ubuntu Hardy and that I need to load the module called hdaps_ec .... how do I load it? [09:06] Shooooo: you *can* yes, but not likely if you pay attention to what you are doing [09:06] Shooooo, you could, but it is fixable usually, its not screwed beyond repair [09:07] how can I find out from which source a package comes ? [09:07] s3lf, apt-cache show packagename # usually === Kwitschibo_ is now known as Kwitschibo [09:07] Shooooo: i had a computer with XP, Vista and Ubuntu..

I.e. I want firefox to open up whenever I turn on my system. Via a conf file, not through the gui. [10:08] hhhm.. the issue is, hp's own utility comes only for windows .. so sad [10:08] Templar_Xion, see answer above === sean is now known as Guest1946 [10:08] raheem, .....it is sad [10:08] Templar_Xion, ~/.gnome2/session [10:08] raheem, than I am going to throw another question [10:09] is the tor network down or something ? i've just installed Tor Button for FF and all pages give instant 404's ... [10:09] raheem, Can i just install windows that run on linux and make my wireless enabled that way? [10:09] djhash: thanks, it worked on second reboot, the enabled compiz splash was hiding the "keep settings" dialogue, so I missed it [10:09] hhm.. never tried that way .. [10:10] but... heres the problem :(... this hp dv2000 do not have xp drivers... onyl vista [10:10] Bah I have KDE [10:10] this means that I need to partition the hdd and install vista on ntfs.... :(!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 [10:10] hhmm.. check for the driver hp 6720s .. both use the same, i guess [10:10] Guest1946: no problem.. [10:11] raheem, :) I tried to install xp but failed many many times due to lack of few drivers that are crucial.. like.. sound driver? :) [10:11] so how can I fully restore my X11 configuration to what it was right after install? [10:12] dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg isn't doing it [10:12] raheem, can we talk in private chat? I want you to help me achieve this goal :S [10:12] hhm.. i don't have experience with that particular model .. [10:12] the only thing is, I am aware of such an issue .. [10:12] Thanks for the links and advice got AWN up and running with applets and all. [10:12] Ah ha. adding shortcuts to ~/.kde/Autostart [10:12] Guest1286, you will need to use ndiswrapper from that link I gave you [10:12] np [10:13] bazhang: the 8.04.1 works perfectly on bcm4311 rev.02 [10:13] i use it myself .. wihtout ndiswrapper ;) [10:13] bazhang, the problem is not the driver,,, or anything like that.. the problem is that this device will not turn on in "Linux" [10:13] raheem, with the fw-cutter? [10:13] b43 [10:13] :) [10:13] sweet [10:14] i have an iso burnt onto a cdrom and i also have this iso file sitting on my desktop. After running cksum on both, i get different results?? [10:14] that's the sweetest thing i got after upgrading :) [10:14] kmag: in the /etc/X11 folder usually there is xorg.conf.0 (and maybe a 1, 2 3 45...) theses are all older versions.. [10:14] raheem, correct, i never used any of those on archlinux, kde, gnome, xfce4, slackware, etc... (and never had problems) [10:14] Guest1286, there is no windows install left? [10:14] Guest1286: sounds like the device needs to be stuffed with firmware on start (which linux does not have) [10:14] I have windows installation on recover mode (small portion of my hdd) and I can install it but... than I need to reinstall linux on this.. [10:15] Guest1286, install windows then fix grub; no need for linux reinstall [10:15] bazhang: as far as I know, the hp guys locked the wireless down as a default .. it needs to be enabled from the hp-windows utility once [10:15] kaii, What I need to do is, install windows and turn wireless device on the windows and than boot into linux.. which is pain in the butt :( [10:15] djhash: yes... copying xorg.conf.2008.... to xorg.conf (and restarting X) didn't restore my resolution :-( [10:15] raheem, had heard about that [10:16] bazhang: yup.. too sad .. i was lucky though [10:16] raheem, i am unlucky haha [10:16] kmag: sorry.. but i have to go.. i'll be back in about 30 minutes.. if u dont get help by then i'll try and hrlp you.. [10:16] djhash: thanks :-D [10:16] raheem, ok I am installing windows vista right now and deleteing all my previous settings... [10:17] Guest1286: my recommendation would be, install win .. then, enable the wireless, there u go [10:17] sorry that this had to be this way .. sometimes, can't change the order :( [10:17] no need for sorry! [10:18] it is sad that the HP is only blind folded by the main stream markets [10:18] good thing is .. it is not the case with all models ... some models come locked.. that's all [10:18] So... the manpage for dpkg-reconfigure says that the debconf manpage lists the valid priority levels... but it doesn't... and my X11 is bork'd at the moment... [10:19] raheem, well can't we just come up with a software that we can use with a wine? [10:19] raheem, and than turn the wireless on that way? (faking the laptop that the windows OS has been started? ) [10:19] Would a kind soul tell me the most verbose dpkg-reconfigure priority level? [10:19] this is something to do with the firmware / hardware .. don't know of any other solution right now [10:20] raheem, ok vista is not even installing right now.. thus, I am going to run the setup.exe for my driver and see what happens in linux... (wine) [10:20] :P [10:20] "operating system is not supported" ... (vista.exe does not run on wine?)..... ah [10:21] Guest1286: You can't install vista into ubuntu using wine [10:21] xion, i am not installing vista [10:21] Guest1286: Just making sure [10:21] xion, thank you for your attention tho..

[11:16] darkben: what [11:16] chakir_: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_e-mail_clients [11:16] So it's really difficult to move to a Linux based system for the people who work in big companies, we try but the Linux tools for some important tasks are really a crap [11:16] Theo_: hope you don't see that again [11:16] rockenrola, thanks [11:16] does anyone know how to fix this: bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline' I keep getting it when i try to unpack something [11:16] what does it mean? [11:16] Theo_: fd0 is your floppy drive. I wouldn't worry about that. [11:17] How can io download glibc [11:17] without apt-get [11:17] I need to download the package [11:17] ok, i dont have one [11:17] Theo_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=461599 [11:17] darkben: http://packages.ubuntu.com [11:17] didn't thin kso [11:17] think * [11:17] you know I need a deb package contaon glibc files [11:17] Theo_: that's probably why it's erroring then. Ignore that line :) [11:17] Theo_: go into your BIOS and ensure FDD is disabled. [11:17] ok now its booting [11:17] FDD -> floppy disk [11:17] yeah, i think its enabled in my bios [11:17] thats why then... [11:18] because sometimes i plug one in [11:18] hmm, when i ping google.com i get nothing.. [11:18] darkben: packages.ubuntu.com or use synaptic to download the package but not to install it. The go to apt cache and find the package there [11:18] Gh0Sty2k: and your DNS is? [11:18] I need the package to download in my office then i transfer it with my flash drive to my home PC [11:18] hi frnds when i click on saveas button in gedit and gmip they automatically quit can any help me [11:18] I tested gtk-chtheme and after that I wanted to reset my Theme back to human with the Theme Manager. But then my Screen freezed and I pressed "Ctrl + Alt + Backspace" . I wanted to login but then there just were a black screen with an white box on the top-left corner. Can anybody help me? [11:18] ahh server is running DNS too, wonder if thats the problem.. [11:18] glibc is requierd for my nvidia driver [11:18] Gh0Sty2k: no DNS and nothing resolves === raghu is now known as raghupathi === bj_ is now known as bjb_nyj101 [11:19] anyone know what this is: bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline' [11:19] Ya good point. Ill try IP instead. [11:19] I got that error last night, or a similar one at least [11:19] I have a desktop running feisty, booting off a raid array (md) - I want to dist-upgrade to gutsy then to hardy - will I run into problems? [11:19] the short of the story is I have a new hdd now [11:19] But i did point to gateway which should function fine for dns [11:19] thanks [11:19] My windows box has the same setup and it works fine [11:19] the booting freezes at "Starting Hardware abstraction layer hald _" [11:19] N3X0NIC: Well then simply download it with synaptic BUT don't install it (you can specify that in synaptic), after that find the packages in apt cache folder. [11:19] necromxxx: you started a new line at a place where you shouldn've in a script [11:19] Gh0Sty2k: k# === raghupathi is now known as raghu [11:19] im not writing a script [11:20] Theo_: go into your bios and disable the fdd. then reboot. === raghu is now known as refeke [11:20] im just trying to unpack as root [11:20] <-- total noob! [11:20] darkben: Well then simply download it with synaptic BUT don't install it (you can specify that in synaptic), after that find the packages in apt cache folder. [11:20] lol [11:20] ok [11:20] Great thanks === refeke is now known as raghu_becks [11:20] that means you have to actually reboot.... [11:20] raghupathi: does this affect other programs too? Try Firefox and PDF Reader (evince) too. [11:20] yeah, i iunderstand, im in the bios now [11:20] yeah? [11:20] how do i enable direct hardware rendering in hardy for a 8500gt ? thats the error i get in eve online when i try to run hardware tests [11:21] legacy diskette A: DISABLED [11:21] now i'm downloading glibc-source_2.7-10ubuntu3_all.de [11:21] ok [11:21] is it ok? [11:21] So no one knows the cafesomething site/repo where the broadcom wireless packages/tutorial reside. Google is being really unhelpful. [11:22] yeah, now try rebooting it. [11:22] !broadcom [11:22] Help with Broadcom bcm43xx can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WifiDocs/Driver/Broadcom43xx [11:22] is glibc-source_2.7-10ubuntu3_all.deb is the right package for glibc [11:22] Thankyou! [11:22] darkben: why do u need glibc, i think it's one of the base packages you can't simply install it like you can other packages [11:22] juzzydee: is that an asus barebones? [11:22] Nah, a Dell d600 [11:22] djhash: dpkg-reconfigure --all didn't give me back my installation config [11:22] I need it for nvidia driver. [11:22] ah [11:22] darkben: whoaaaaa don't compile glibc [11:23] good luck :p [11:23] djhash : even though I installed 2 days ago :-( [11:23] Has anyone had a problem with vim - when you start it, press down arrow, it deletes a number of lines and enters Insert mode. There's nothing complicated in .vimrc - just syntax on and colorscheme [11:23] y? [11:23] darkben: you don't need to recompile glibc for the nvidia driver [11:23] ikonia: that's what i'm saying :) [11:23] darkben: use apt-get [11:23] does ubuntu support the 9000 nvidia series? [11:23] Hi, how to access thrash fom command line? [11:23] haha thanks, it was so painless last time, but my hdd died last night, so I'm on a fresh install [11:23] Theo_: the driver doesnt out of the box [11:23] djhash : using debootstrap another install on the same box. [11:23] theo_: you should know if you read the documentation supplied [11:23] There was some repo I added and it had the broadcom stuff and just worked. [11:23] ikonia: but it should boot? [11:23] I haven't any high speed internet in my house [11:23] .local/share/Trash/ [11:23] darkben: what exactly are you trying to do? You mention your nvidia driver needs glibc. In the ubuntu/Debian world, that probably means you need a compiler and a dev package to build the nvidia stuff. [11:23] Theo_: a video card driver doesn't stop the box booting [11:23] microwaver: [11:24] thanks [11:24] ikonia: agreed [11:24] !trash | jitu3485 [11:24] jitu3485: The location of Trash has changed in 8.04, it is now located in ~/.local/share/Trash | Looking for the trash in previous versions: ~/.Trash [11:24] rockenrola, thanks [11:24] yesterday i move from fedora 7 to ubuntu 8 [11:24] after installing [11:24] i try to install nvidia driver [11:24] now its on starting hardware abstraction laer hald. i will just wait [11:24] I have 5500 [11:24] tahks all guys [11:24] darkben right so you don't need to install the nvidia driver [11:24] you moved from fc to ubuntu? :/ [11:24] y? [11:24] darkben: the ubuntu hard ware driver manager will use an effective supplied driver [11:25] darkben: have you read any of the basic documents on ubuntu ? [11:25] schmrz, yes? [11:25] you're not making sense darkben, it sounds as if you did some sort of unofficial migration [11:25] darkben: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia [11:25] !lol [11:25] Please don't use "LOL" and "OMG" and so forth on a regular basis. This is IRC, not IM, and using those lines on their own is not required, and it is rather annoying to the rest of the people in the channel; thanks. [11:25] eth01: I think he means a clean install [11:25] putting trash in the share folder!!.. isn't that a security risk? or do each user get their own trash folder? [11:25] hopefully === gordonjc1 is now known as gordonjcp [11:25] suy [11:25] djhash: its in your home dir [11:25] microwaver: what? [11:25] Ahhh found it! [11:25] Cafuego! [11:26] y? [11:26] darkben: are you on the ubuntu box now [11:26] is fedora is better [11:26] ? [11:26] yes [11:26] schmrz, you said something to me :°) [11:26] I'm in ubutu [11:26] ubuntu [11:26] darkben: [11:26] darkben: right your using gnome yes ? [11:26] how do i fix this *** NO PREDEFINED KERNEL COMPILER IS DETECTED [11:26] yes [11:26] necromxxx: what are you doing ? [11:26] oh. right.. the ~... 'doh.... [11:26] microwaver: sorry :) accident :D [11:26] necromxxx: need context [11:27] trying to install a driver [11:27] shmrz no problem at all :) [11:27] darkben: ok, goto the system -> administration menu and open the package that says hardware drivers [11:27] sound driver [11:27] I try it says [11:27] nvdia driver enable not in use [11:27] click on the box.. [11:28] darkben: ok, thats probably becaue the module is not loaded [11:28] trying to create a makefile on it [11:28] what should i do? [11:28] darkben: do you know how to load a kernel module ? [11:28] NO [11:28] :) [11:28] <_Gui_> hello everybody :) [11:28] darkben: type "lsmod | grep nvdiai" [11:28] darkben: that should read nvidia [11:28] darkben: silly question.. is there a box before "not in use" can you click on it? [11:29] get this at the end configure: creating ./config.status [11:29] config.status: creating Makefile.conf [11:29] make: *** [all] Error 2 [11:29] make: *** [install] Error 2 [11:29] Installation Unsuccessful [11:29] necromxxx: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.

[11:29] the box has a check bot it's red [11:29] !sexuality [11:29] <_Gui_> can anyone tell me whether ubuntu creates any other partitions besides the main one and teh swap? [11:29] Sorry, I don't know anything about sexuality [11:29] darkben: is it checked ? [11:29] yes it has a check [11:29] !msgthebot > platyhelminth [11:29] platyhelminth, please see my private message [11:30] darkben: ok, so do "lsmod | grep nvidia" [11:30] anyone ever installed xen? [11:30] _Gui_: Yea, it creates a partition for the OS and a swap partition [11:30] Greatthe box became green [11:30] remoteCTR1: most of the time [11:30] remoteCTR1: many times sorry [11:30] :\ [11:31] that's great really thanks [11:31] ikonia: hehe have you already tried with the current kernel? [11:31] darkben: ok, so now press ctrl+alt+backspace and it will reset your X session and you should be using the nvidia driver [11:31] remoteCTR1: not done it on hardy [11:31] The box is mad. [11:31] ikonia: it comletely busts the kernel on boot attempt:/ [11:31] remoteCTR1: can you be more specific [11:31] <_Gui_> _KenBW2_: So it just creates 2 partitions? Can I partition them before and then just choose em during setup? it's that my partitioning scheme is a bit, erm, complicated [11:31] xen is good if you're wanting to spread it across 30 servers or so... literally... [11:31] openvz is good for individual stuff, as is er... virtualbox [11:32] whats the command for locking your screen? [11:32] ikonia: actually ubuntu prefers a restart.. I remember doing the backspace thingy.. then it wont do other stuff like updates and stuff.. [11:32] ikonia: i dont know if its hardware related, as i treid with two servers that have quite similar hardware, but it seems to have a severe problem with the scsi controller... [11:32] djhash: it's just restarting the X server - thats it, thats all I want it to do [11:32] if you don't know how to use xen they why an earth bloody install it in the first place. [11:32] remoteCTR1: as I said can you be more specific ? [11:32] eth01: So he can learn to use it :) [11:32] ikonia: last message that i see is something about aic79xx then a bunch of error hex codes and then its stuck completely... [11:32] yes, but this is xen we're talking about. [11:33] #xen [11:33] ikonia: what precisely do you wanna know? [11:33] remoteCTR1: guess we'd have to look at the error it's moaning about the aic driver [11:33] remoteCTR1: the hex codes can be "ok" or they could be a bad sign [11:34] is ubuntu better than fedora? [11:34] eth01: got any probs there mate?;) [11:34] What algorithm is recommended for home-directory encryption? [11:34] [GNOME] Pressing Applications > System Tools > 'Report a Problem...' does not open any window. How to fix this? [11:34] darkben: thats just a subjective opinion [11:34] ikonia: well as i said its quite a statement so i didnt write it down, shall i do so? [11:34] bullgard4: what system tools do you have installed [11:34] what's urs? [11:34] remoteCTR1: ok, so it's borking on the driver [11:35] whats the command for locking your screen? [11:35] darkben: does it matter, this is a support channel [11:35] zetheroo: xlock ? I can't remember the gnome version [11:35] ikonia: i got the impression, yes, and its not all new hardware at all, those servers are like 3 [11:35] zetheroo: CTRL+ALT+L [11:35] years old [11:35] cuz i moved i wanna know [11:36] zetheroo: xscreensaver-command -lock [11:36] darkben: thats not relevant to this channel, remember this is an ubuntu support channel only, for general discussion join #ubuntu-offtopic [11:36] ikonia: what would you suggest me to do? [11:36] thanks [11:36] remoteCTR1: log a bug with the xen kernel team [11:36] ikonia: gnome-system-tools and system-tools-backends [11:37] ikonia: i was afraid you'd say something like that *g* (by the way it works with debian etch) [11:37] bullgard4: gnome-system-tools arn't actually applications that go in that menu [11:37] bullgard4: thinks like virtual manager are "system" tools, I appriciate the name may be confusing [11:37] bullgard4: s/thinks/things [11:37] anyone know the documentation for clearlooks for using in gtk2 design? [11:38] friends plz let me know what for is this symbain is ? [11:39] raj_: pardon ? [11:39] raj_: could you re-word your question a little better please. [11:39] symbain [11:39] symbain software [11:39] ikonia: translation: what is "symbain" used for? [11:39] anyone know the documentation for clearlooks for using in gtk2 design? [11:39] raj_: I can't see any software called symbain in the ubuntu repos [11:39] pen: not really an ubuntu question [11:40] DEFACED SITES LIST =) http://www.datasec.info [11:40] yeah [11:40] ikonia What do you mean by 'Virtual Manager'? [11:40] who knows asterisk around here? [11:40] can anyone recomend a good site planning tool? [11:40] runlvl: we don't need that URL please. [11:40] jeeves__, as in? [11:40] bullgard4: an application such as "vitual manager" [11:40] anyone know any XFIRE alternatives ? [11:40] ikonia, it's overlapped, if you don't know then just say so [11:40] pen: http://clearlooks.sourceforge.net/ [11:41] ikonia, I want the parameters [11:41] pen: it's not overlapped - clearlooks is not an ubuntu product, so providing documentation for it is nothing to do with ubuntu [11:41] microwaver, I'm trying to plan out the menu systems for my new Joomla site, and I want to get a graphical tool that I can send the rest of the idoits on my dev team so we're all working from the same page. [11:41] ikonia: Synaptic does not know any 'virtual manager'. How can I find 'virtual manager'? [11:41] I've installed ubuntu via wubi, and was wondering how to change the windows vista boot manager so that ubuntu is the default selection [11:41] runlvl: don't [11:41] bullgard4: do you need a virtual manager ? [11:41] hello everyone, I'm having a problem installing ubuntu, everything goes fine until you have to configure the partitions. Fact is, the installer shows me that I have no partitions, that I only have two empty drives [11:41] ok === newclient is now known as bad_boys [11:41] Lible: are you using raid [11:41] jeeves__, aha joomla, so ytou want , a flow chart of your website? [11:42] Lible: did you expect to have partitions on those drives? [11:42] yes [11:42] I'm planning to do a dualboot with XP [11:42] ikonia: I do not know what do you mean by an application 'virtual manager'. So I cannot tell if I need a virtual manager. [11:42] Lible: yes you are using raid, or yes you expected partitions [11:42] both yes [11:42] bullgard4: Virtual Manager is an interface to KVM [11:42] Lible: ok - raid is the problem [11:42] i want to install symbain OS can any one help me ? [11:42] why are the hardware test results publishable to everyone? [11:42] Lible: your using a technology called "rake raid" [11:43] raj_: we don't support symbain here - only ubuntu [11:43] djhash : so I have another Hardy install on my third HD ... any idea which all files I need to copy to get an identical X config? [11:43] and why are MAC addresses and other identifying information in the XML files? [11:43] don't know, probably not [11:43] Lible: rake raid is not a technology designed for linux, it's basiclly a windows software raid [11:43] microwaver, yea. I'm currently running PHPbb, and it dosn't have a lot of the features I'm looking for (maybe Joomla isn't the one I need, so I'll also take sudgestions. Bonus points on if I can admin it from a desktop app). And yes, I'd like to map it out so I'm not getting lost [11:43] kmag: /etc/X11/xorg.conf [11:43] Lible: I beliveve you are using "fake raid" are you using raid off your motherboard controllers [11:43] raj_: Symbian is an OS for mobile phones. For any other question go to #symbian [11:43] jeeves - Django built for the win! [11:44] thax [11:44] I don't know really, I'm not the "adminstrator" of this computer [11:44] juzzydee, I made a point when I moved accross the country to STOP using Windows [11:44] any way to find out using windows's tools? [11:44] Lible: then you probably shouldn't be installing ubuntu on it [11:44] Lible: contact the administator of that PC [11:44] Yeah, Django is the python web framework [11:44] It likes linux a lot, and it's a pleasure to develop with. [11:45] can anyone answer my question? [11:45] juzzydee, did I mention that I don't code? I'm the guy in the basement making sure stuff runs. I leave the programming to the lazy slackers on the top floor [11:45] So it's not a pre-built plug it in solution, but it really honestly is a pleasure to develop with none the less. [11:45] surely this is a large privacy concern! [11:45] heh, thing is, the adminisrator asked me to install it himself [11:45] Lible: then go and speak to him and ask him [11:45] Ahhh, fair enough :) [11:45] I've installed ubuntu before on different computers and everything has went fine [11:45] ikonia: I do not use any kernel_based_virtual_machine. [11:45] bullgard4: then you don't need that tool [11:45] I wonder if there is existing plug in cms solutions built using Django or Turbogears. One would assume so. [11:46] ikonia: I agree. [11:46] ta_bu_shi_da_yu: Well don't publish it. [11:46] so, any sudgestions on the flowchart? [11:46] jeeves__, well I'm a joomla user myself, but don't have a 'flow chart' of it. [11:46] excuse me, schmrz, but I didn't know what it published [11:46] jeeves__, what's the main purpose of the webpage? [11:46] ta_bu_shi_da_yu: what is your question [11:47] i was used to use pidgin for ICQ, in Gutsy. Recently it refuses connecting to ICQ, since it's an old version. but there seems to be no upgrade (in gutsy repo). [11:47] https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/hwtest/+question/32317 [11:47] mmc: the upgrade has been pushed out, check again [11:47] I want to know why the hardware test tool which is meant to gather data on the sort of hardware people are using is record IP addresses, MAC addresses and hardware UUIDs to a public text file [11:48] Ubuntu gets kinda sluggish while downloading "additional packages" while doing a package install and expanding the "Terminal" arrow. Anyone else get that? [11:48] microwaver, ok, check out www.tessawhite.ca/site/ for the PHPbb mess, and then check out www.tessawhite.ca/main/ for the Joomla mess. I'd like to get something that I can keep track of all of my e-mails from the elected officals, and to add some stats (ie. how long it takes them to get back to me, etc), as well, I'll end up making users for each offical so people can directly e-mail them from the site. [11:48] ta_bu_shi_da_yu = "s/he is not a big fish"? [11:48] kmag fraid so [11:48] ta_bu_shi_da_yu: are you chris sherlock ? [11:48] yup [11:48] [GNOME] Pressing Applications > System Tools > 'Report a Problem...' does not open any window. How to fix this? [11:49] ta_bu_shi_da_yu: so thats the problem, you don't have to send the hardware test results in, and that information is nothing usable anyway [11:49] microwaver, I'd apericate any help you can offer to add the "flash" to the site. I'll worry about the "bitch work" to put up the content, but I'm TOTTALY lost as how it works [11:49] anyway... I guess I'm NOT that concerned for myself [11:49] but... [11:49] hello [11:49] if you have a nifty app that publishes stuff, shouldn't there be an option to at least see what data is published to start with? [11:49] ta_bu_shi_da_yu: so lets not discuss it then [11:49] hello ikonia [11:49] ikonia: why is that? [11:49] ta_bu_shi_da_yu: if you don't care, [11:50] ikonia: I might not care, many others do [11:50] I thought Ubuntu was interested in privacy [11:50] I guess not [11:50] ta_bu_shi_da_yu: so let them log a bug or dicuss it, it's been security reviewed and passed [11:50] microwaver, did you get to see what I'm talking about? [11:50] can you send me a link to where it was security reviewed? [11:50] ta_bu_shi_da_yu: no [11:50] why might that be? [11:51] jeeves__, i'm looking at page nw [11:51] ta_bu_shi_da_yu: I don't know links of the top of my head [11:51] jeeves__, what you're looking for is someone who makes a site and you just update it all? [11:51] hi...how can i find linux bios for my laptop?(not from factory....) [11:51] ta_bu_shi_da_yu: look at what the tools says "the following information will be sent to launcpad" it tells you exactly what it's sending [11:51] how would I go about finding the link then ikonia? [11:51] ikonia - actually, it doesn't [11:51] ta_bu_shi_da_yu: there may not even be a link, it may not be public [11:51] hi all -- i have the latest version of svn installed from the ubuntu repos. when i'm trying to use svnversion, though, i get an error: [11:51] svnversion: error while loading shared libraries: libsvn_subr-1.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory [11:51] ta_bu_shi_da_yu: what do you mean it doesnt, it sends what it says it will [11:52] "locate libsvn_subr" shows /usr/lib/libsvn_subr-1.so.1 but no /usr/lib/libsvn_subr-1.so.0 [11:52] microwaver, did you see the general idea of what I'm working on? I'm trying to prove that the elected officals are NOT doing their job. Then when I get the media involved, and the public starts to hit the site, they can graphically see how long it takes them to reply, etc [11:52] i guess that is the problem [11:52] how can i fix that?

[11:53] ta_bu_shi_da_yu: it does - your cpu, your device list, your packages etc [11:53] it asks a series of questions, you answer them, you type in your launchpad email address and then it send the info [11:53] and no, it doesn't [11:53] kmag: your welcome. [11:53] microwaver, and possibly to set up accounts for each offical and let the public click on the user and when they send a message on the site, it'll actully get e-mailed to the officall's real e-mail (but the e-mailing process will remain transparent to the end user) [11:54] just so we are on the same page I ran it by going to the following menu: System -> Administration -> Hardware testing [11:54] ta_bu_shi_da_yu: in related news, Your Computer Is Broadcasting An IP Address [11:54] Thanks for reminding me, gonna open a LaunchPad account and submit hardware test results. :] [11:55] gordonjcp: yes, but it's not broadcasting my CPUs UUID [11:55] ta_bu_shi_da_yu: I've got the screen in front of my. it says "the following information will be sent to the launchpad hardware database, please provide the email address you use to sign into launchpad to submit this information". It then lists "distribution details, device information, processor information, packages installed, test results" [11:55] ta_bu_shi_da_yu: who cares? [11:55] microwaver, is what I'm looking for a dooable thing? [11:55] many people who care about privacy [11:55] ta_bu_shi_da_yu: this pretty clear what it's going to send [11:55] ta_bu_shi_da_yu: then don't use the tool - it says what it is going to send [11:55] the privacy zealots wouldnt be interested in submitting hardware information [11:55] ta_bu_shi_da_yu: can you give a specific example of why that would be a privacy problem? [11:55] I'm installing ubuntu-desktop on my server because I can't work with command line. Now it's been stuck on the line "* Reloading system log daemon..." for well over an hour. Is this normal? [11:56] ta_bu_shi_da_yu: then dont SEND IT.. just do the tests and then close the program [11:56] anyway, I've asked my question and I've noted that some people might be concerned [11:56] no-one is [11:56] so anyway, do you know me? [11:57] ta_bu_shi_da_yu: none of this information is a privacy concern. [11:57] ikonia, do you know me personally? [11:57] ta_bu_shi_da_yu: why would people be concerned? [11:57] ta_bu_shi_da_yu: I do [11:57] ta_bu_shi_da_yu: do you know me personally? [11:57] gordonjcp: I know *you* do, but then you didn't ask my name publicly on the channel [11:57] tuna-fish: not at all [11:57] oops [11:58] ta_bu_shi_da_yu: nope, I don't know you, should I ?

I have to run xrandr --output VGA --auto to set the right resolution each time. How can I avoid this? [14:26] A lot of linux 'native' games are rather old now a days. and may not run properly. [14:26] does anyone know how I can control the apci properties of my laptop [14:26] laughtear: use pastebin [14:26] it says function not found x86 [14:26] like how long it takes before it goes into standby mode,monitor off mode e.t.c [14:27] laughtear: please pastebin the output. [14:27] when i watch hulu it stops then goes for some videos likek i have a slow connection?

[14:27] laughtear: you've gone into another directory deeper than what I said. cd ..

Is the best way. [14:29] djhash, ne2k__ : no need to that believve me, i can write the list here: local/share/Trash/files/Diablo II-x.2/save/ ..and the save files [14:29] how to open autokill on dal.net?

[14:30] djhash, ne2k__ : ok, i will do that [14:30] FragUPlenty: can you pastebin the whole setup.sh file? [14:30] or do you have proxy browser? [14:30] file:///media/cdrom0/setup.sh [14:31] NIT_e_LF: there is a setting in both firefox and xchat to setting a proxy, it's in preferences [14:31] i installed Wireshark with sudo apt-get wireshark but it isnt anywhere in my applications menu?? :( [14:31] FragUPlenty: can you please pastebin the whole file? [14:31] no I mean in xchat.. [14:31] Shoopuf: it's under Internet! [14:31] I dunno how to do that what do you mean [14:31] I need it..pliss [14:31] NIT_e_LF: yes, in xchat too [14:31] Shoopuf-> apt-get install wireshark [14:31] mine is under network Shoopuf [14:31] what? [14:31] is it work? [14:31] on 2 different ubuntu installations, "ls -la" places all dotfiles above other files on one box and ignores the dots on another - how can I change this? [14:31] xchat has settings in their menus for proxy i imagine. and the homepage has docs on it. [14:32] tanGee man ls please for more detailed options [14:32] thanks lot [14:32] what does pastebin the setup file mean [14:32] tanGee: examine the output of the "alias" command and make sure you haven't got different ls aliases set up [14:32] settings -> perferances -> network - has proxy info it seems [14:33] FragUPlenty: open the file in a text editor, copy the contents to the copy buffer, open a browser window to http://paste.ubuntu.com/, and paste the contents of the file into the form [14:33] amenado: yah it says it's installed... ne2k__: its not there... [14:33] ok [14:33] djhash, ne2k__ : here it is: http://paste.ubuntu.com/26204/ [14:33] Shoopuf-> it may not be a gui interface, try the command line wireshark [14:33] Shoopuf: weird. you could examine the raw contents of the package and find out if it created a launcher [14:34] ok done [14:34] http://paste.ubuntu.com/26205/ [14:34] djhash, ne2k__ : here it is: http://paste.ubuntu.com/26204/ [14:34] ne2k__: on both the alias for ls is "ls='ls --color=auto'", and the manpage only gives info on arguments...but the only arguemtns I pass on each machine are -la so the commands are identical [14:34] hey guys. what's the difference between ubuntu dvd and simple 700mb dstr.? [14:35] It worked in terminal typing "wireshark," so I just made a launcher that runs that command.. [14:35] laughtear: type this "chmod -R 777 *" <----- make sure ur still in the diablo folder. [14:35] laughtear: there is your problem. for some reason, you do not have permission to write to the file "save". but, as you own it, you can change the permissions. in that directory, issue the following command: "chmod 775 save". then cd ../ and rm -rf "Diablo II-x.2" [14:36] laughtear: how did the files get there in the first place? [14:36] http://paste.ubuntu.com/26205/ [14:36] hi all, I'm trying to assign a local ip to my computer. this way everytime i reboot my server the local ip doesnt change(192.168.1.100). how would i do this ? in freebsd i do this ifconfig_em0="inet 192.168.1.100 netmask 255.255.255.0" [14:36] defaultrouter="192.168.1.1" in the rc.conf file [14:37] is there a media player that will stream things over https? [14:37] err, from an https server? [14:37] i mean, plenty do regular http. [14:37] who can I ask to update the package that is deployed through Synaptic? Right now it deploys blender version 2.45, but 2.46 is the current release. === playya_ is now known as not_playya === EGU is now known as ExGearUser [14:38] ne2k__ : the files were in a dvd i burned years ago, then today, i's backing and tidiing up my files, i put the dvd into the drive, copied onto desktop, then backed i which needed, then throw into trash... that's all [14:38] Hi guys, fetchmail is really doing my head in - It's pulling mail down from a POP box for the domain, it's also delivering the mail to the correct internal mail server, it's just removing the TO information - how do I stop this from happening? [14:39] FragUPlenty: the person who wrote the file made an assumption about your /bin/sh -- basically, that it would be a shell that support functions, like bash. /bin/sh on ubuntu is a link to /bin/dash, which doesn't support functions. the easiest way round this is to temporarily change the link so that /bin/sh is a link to /bin/bash, and then put it back later. otherwise you could copy the file... [14:39] ...and edit it, but it might complain about not being in the right place. [14:39] Anyone know how to save playlists in rhythmbox? theres no option for it [14:39] so wait how do I make it work [14:39] just change something in the sh [14:39] build a new Iso [14:39] djhash, ne2k__ and all: thank you very much [14:40] and then reburn [14:40] PapaSmurf: you have to wait until the person/people who build the program/package to update the repositories. [14:40] PapaSmurf: You file a wishlist bug at http://bugs.ubuntu.com and under the blender package and mark it wishlist with the tag update [14:40] FragUPlenty, you could copy all files from the iso to some directory, then edit the script. [14:40] allright [14:40] laughtear: I actually don't know why you can't remove it even if you don't have write permission, because you're the owner, and it should just work anyway -- I just tried it. weird [14:40] ill do that [14:41] mod_cure: man 5 interfaces [14:41] so im changing everything that says bin/sh [14:41] to /bin/dash [14:41] ne2k__: removing a file is like writing 0's.. if you have a file you want to make sure u never delete.. you don't give urself a write permission.. or you chown it to root.. [14:41] FragUPlenty: no. I'd just do it by changing the link termporarily [14:42] how do I do that [14:42] djhash: but I just did the following: mkdir save; chmod 555 save; rmdir save; and it deleted it. what's that about? [14:42] once upon a time I had winblows, and I used notepad to record some IMPOTRANT info, I decided to upt faith into winblows in not shutting down, but apprently I was wrong, winblows did a automatic update without my approval and all the info I had in the notepad es lost... thanks winblows, for updating my computer without my approval [14:42] =P [14:42] Billll: Thanks for sharing, do you have an Ubuntu related support question? [14:42] I do pici [14:43] ne2k__ : i changed the permission from read only to read and write by right click onto the file while they were on desktop, but i forgot to make it to all subdirectories, so the folder was writable but the files inside were not. that way ubuntu let me to throw them into trash, but did not let me to clean them away, probably it confused about something. should ve say it to developers? === nick_riviera is now known as m4jkl [14:43] How do I set ubuntu to print to a network printsever [14:43] ne2k__, uh, directories are also files [14:43] pici: I soon will be =P [14:43] I have the print server set up with and IP address already and can print to it from windows [14:43] ne2k__: i just chmodded a directory as 111 and i was able to remove it.. [14:43] you created the directory inside of a directory you had write perms on. [14:43] WiFi print server I should say [14:44] Billll: We'd appreciate if you kept the offtopic comments out of the channel, you can chat in #ubuntu-offtopic if you'd like though. [14:44] leafpad any betetr on system resoruces than gedit? [14:44] pici: thank you :D [14:44] uberspaced: just fyi.. we just worked out a problem when a user couldn't delete a folder they owned that was chmodded to 555... [14:45] yeah, saying that rming a file is like writing 0s to it was pretty wrong [14:45] djhash: removing a file is nothing like writing 0s. removing a file is unlinking it. [14:45] I was answering his question about why he can remove a directory [14:45] got a buddy thats trying to run 2 monitors (one large desktop stretched over 2 monitors) but they need to be stacked vertically, not horizontally - -can someone point me to some documentation or a starting point for more research? [14:46] ne2k__: i understand that.. but i meant in terms of r/w/x... not technically.. [14:46] W8TAH, what type of video card? [14:46] Is there a way of exporting users from one release so that you can import them into a newer release. 7.04 to 8.04. Thanks in advance [14:46] Sylphid|work, lemme ask - one sec please [14:47] W8TAH, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xinerama [14:47] djhash, thank you. I am on another channel with Blender, and they don't know who is responsible. lol. [14:48] Sylphid|work, for now figure a low provile nVidia 8000series but hes building from scratch so he can put in whatever [14:48] hey guys.. [14:48] can anyone help me out?? my ubuntu has started to freeze recently and my pidgin closes randomly multiple times a day [14:48] orlowsks: users are defined by the file /etc/passwd, their groups by /etc/group and their password by /etc/shadow [14:49] mftom, I'd do a memtest on the thing [14:49] then I'd check /var/log/messages for garbage [14:49] PapaSmurf: The maintainer of the Blender package is the motu team, did you see my response earlier about filing a wishlish bug? [14:49] ubserspaceD: restart and do memtest? [14:49] hi [14:49] s/wishlish/wishlist/ [14:49] W8TAH, install the restricted extras for the driver and nvidia-settings..... then you can use nvidia-settings to change the layout [14:49] PapaSmurf: you aren't, perchange, Joel Macayana, are you? [14:49] i've got a prob. i have no sound when playing .mkv videos with kaffeine [14:49] Sylphid|work, ok - i'll let him know [14:49] uberspaceD: when i check the messages...what am i looking for? anything that says fail? [14:50] mftom, It could be anything. [14:50] hello I would like to know if its possible to have a user only use a certain window manager - user1 uses gnome and user2 uses xfce? [14:50] Pici, no I did no see it. thank you. I will put in a wishlist for the motu team. [14:50] ne2K_:So in theory i could copy those files along with home directories to the new server and be okay [14:50] mftom, if you see the same thing repeated over and over [14:50] #stef [14:50] ok thanks [14:50] or kernel panics or what not [14:50] I don't want the users to have the option to changed their window managers [14:50] i installed kubuntu and it gets stuck at boot. sometimes after partition checking sometimes any where but before x. kde4 works fine. but it has some other runtime errors. what cani do? [14:50] what I suggest is you do a memtest on the thing to see if you're playing with a full deck [14:51] i was getting an error with pulseaudio [14:51] but i'll do a memtest [14:51] and then look at /var/log/messages [14:51] ok so how do I make bin/sh link to bin/bash [14:51] ok [14:51] i shall return [14:51] ok, I'd keep a terminal open with: sudo tail -f /var/log/messages [14:51] (after the memtest) or whatever [14:51] I'm hoping someone can answer a question about a LAMP solution on JeOS Server [14:51] go about your business, when you see stuff go crappy, look at the terminal [14:52] <_Brun0_> what is the channel to talk about weird networking errors? [14:52] _Brun0_, weird networking errors, eh? [14:52] I can't get the index.html to load now that everything is set [14:52] hi all, I'm trying to assign a local ip to my computer. this way everytime i reboot my server the local ip doesnt change(192.168.1.100). how would i do this ? in freebsd i do this ifconfig_em0="inet 192.168.1.100 netmask 255.255.255.0" [14:53] mod_cure, /etc/network/interfaces [14:53] im at the file but i don't know how to configure it correctly [14:53] mod_cure, man interfaces [14:53] seriously last thing I need is how to link bin/sh to go to bin/bash [14:53] can anyone help me pls? just want to know if I can force a user to only use one window manager [14:53] in ubuntu, can i copy anything from a ntfs partition to my ext3 /home partition? [14:53] my built in network card is just gone..... how can i check it? [14:53] mod_cure: man interfaces [14:53] i did that, a lot of info [14:54] mod_cure, auto eth0 \n iface eth0 inet static \n address 192.168.0.10 \n netmask 255.255.255.0 \n gateway 192.168.0.1 [14:54] lainy, linux can have full read/write acess to ntfs filesystems. [14:54] <_Brun0_> uberspaced: yea.. all of a sudden I can't access any of my clients site ftp, mysql or http from insite my network. outside i checked with wc3's validation tool and it opens websites normally. i can open all websites normally but not my clients' sites (which are all hosted on my resellers hosting plan). [14:55] _Brun0_, check things like: DNS, pinging your router [14:55] <_Brun0_> lainy: my theory is that I got somehow IP banned from my own host provider. [14:55] then see if you can ping them [14:55] dr_Willis: thanks. what happens to the file though when it is copied to ext3 though? it changes somehow? [14:55] _Brun0_, try pinging your dns server [14:55] hi [14:55] <_Brun0_> uberspaced: DNS resolves, but server doesn't answer to connection requests [14:55] lainy, nothing should change. [14:56] dr_Willis: ok [14:56] _Brun0_, so, you have general internet connectivity, eh? [14:56] uberspaced, do i get rid of this then auto lo [14:56] iface lo inet loopback ?

[14:57] ne2k__: i just replicated what laughtear had.. and this was weird.. i had files with mod 777, and owned by me.. but the only way to delete them is by using sudo... [14:58] they work fine in vlc but vlc doesnt find all audio-streams i need [14:58] mod_cure, i gave you junk for a regular /32 private ip. change it however you're going to be using it.

[15:58] thanks [15:58] Jman: if it is already activated, then, gtkpod should be fine... drm, aac playback could be an issue though [15:58] yea [15:58] just tryin to get it to recognize it [15:59] unohu: http://tapioca-voip.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Tapioca [15:59] when you connect to a remote resource (i.e. a samba share) via the tool on the Ubuntu taskbar, can you access that resource via a mount? [15:59] trakinas: thanks a lot [15:59] Jman: in my experience, it does automatically .. i was using ipod classic 80 gb [15:59] i got ipod touch :x [16:00] unohu: You are welcome [16:00] and is there a way to check if my hardwares' drivers for linux can be found ? [16:00] <_moshez> I just upgraded to hardy (from 7.10) and my wireless stopped working. I'm using lenovo 300 n100 [16:00] <_moshez> any known issues? [16:00] Pisagor-: what hardware? [16:01] router [16:01] and other usb devices [16:01] Pisagor-: routers do not need drivers [16:01] but my routers run on usb [16:01] some of them* [16:01] Pisagor-: Do you mean your network adapters? [16:01] Pisagor-: AFAIK there should be no problem using a usb router with ubuntu. [16:02] My surround is working but there is no sound from front speakers, any idea why? [16:02] yeah i believe so [16:02] this abuse of the term "router" is causing me to twitch [16:02] but i wanna be sure [16:02] so do you think ipod touch is any different [16:02] whisper: check if they are turned on in alsamixer (type it on a console) [16:02] whisper: The format of the audio you are listening to may only be stereo? [16:02] Pisagor-: You can download and run the LiveCD, it does not require you to install anything to your harddrive, for a test drive. [16:02] Pisagor-: why not just google the routers model number with ubuntu like "XXXXX ubuntu" where XXXXX is the router model #? [16:02] whisper: In which case you'd need to hack together a little script to get stereo audio to play over all channels [16:03] #ubuntu-it [16:03] nixnoob : i have done this [16:03] and got lost in the internet trash. [16:03] Pisagor-: try the live cd and see if it gives u an internet connection... [16:04] whats the difference between alsa, oss, and jack? [16:04] Two applications, two different fonts, the same problem: bad kerning. Can anybody confirm this on Ubuntu Hardy? See screenshots http://imagebin.ca/view/ZKYNZ1VI.html http://imagebin.ca/view/R-WJCiHV.html [16:04] reZo: They're all different ways of transmitting sound from an application to your hardware [16:04] reZo: alsa and oss are system drivers and controlers (basically). jack is a program that works over alsa/oss and can do loads of things with the audio stream [16:05] No, everything is set to max, but I can find an option for my front speakers, they all worked before the reinstall [16:05] Every time I try to touch my volume slider in the panel (including double clicking the volume slider and changing the ones within) the volume slider just bounces up and down and the chain breaks and I just CANT seem to set my volume.

I'm trying to install xubuntu onto a really old computer using the alternate CD. I have about 2.2 GB of free space on my C drive, but I'm either reading it wrong, or it says there is only 8.1 MB of free space left. I really don't know what to do. I'd rather keep windows if possible, so that I can get some files off of it with my flash drive. [16:29] ganymede: hit alt-f2 and then nm-applet [16:29] i'm trying to dump an image to an umounted volume. I know this works in Fedora... not sure why permission would be denied other than maybe as a protection against someone accidentally wiping their drive [16:30] is it possible to install all kinds of .deb packages or do I need spezial ubuntu .deb packages? [16:30] djhash: It auto-completed when I typed "Kool" as 'Kooldock' [16:30] Hi. I have to restart /etc/init.d/networking after a boot, any way to debug this? [16:30] i need help to troubleshoot sound recorder [16:30] Ziggy: then press enter.. :-) [16:30] bullzeye95: you cannot install linux on free space on a windows partition. you must use free, unpartitioned disk space.

I assumed that it could split through the partition manager [16:32] I don't suppose I could do it through windows... [16:32] hey all, need some advanced help on fakeraid/dmraid.

Long story short, I've reinstalled both OSes (albeit in the wrong order) and Ubuntu's package management is now screwed up on my system with respect to GRUB. [16:47] <__Ping__> I really do just need to start with a clean slate. [16:47] <__Ping__> ('cept for my /home partition. I still love that) [16:48] __Ping__: Which order did you install the OSes? [16:48] Varox-DT: go to adobe's website.. they have acrobat reader for linux [16:48] <__Ping__> Ubuntu THEN XP [16:48] <__Ping__> I thought it was just a grub problem at first. [16:48] __Ping__ why was there even a problem after mobo swap... is it normal? [16:48] djhash: so you just installed the .deb package? [16:48] Varox-DT: but your better off with non adobe products in linux.. [16:48] <__Ping__> oh, the only problem was that it couldn't find the drives [16:48] <__Ping__> and I think while fixing my GRUB, I screwed up my XP [16:48] messages.0:Jul 2 16:07:09 lucy2 kernel: [627332.179093] console-kit-dae[20359]: segfault at 00000000 eip b7e76307 esp bfe708e4 error 4... but the wrong date [16:49] djhash: i wasn't sure if the .deb package is usable for ubuntu [16:49] <__Ping__> Then got myself in a world more trouble with my GRUB. [16:49] Varox-DT: i just tried to install the deb.. it wont work... just search synaptic for PDF [16:49] ok [16:49] Varox-DT: why not use evince for pdf? [16:50] reverx: I have a laptop with ATI built in.. and it works fine.. [16:50] <__Ping__> Hey, does Kubuntu have a "jockey"-style method for non-free drivers? I'm rockin' an NVidia. [16:50] hi, does anybody know any good vinagre tutorial? [16:50] reverx: even with compiz enabled.. [16:50] rausb0: i have some printing problems, also the page doesn't refresh always, so somtimes i need to minimize evince first and open it again [16:50] __Ping__: jockey-kde [16:50] <__Ping__> Pici: cool, thanks [16:51] acrobat for linux is a mem hog too [16:51] does anyone know how my computer could receive packets on the network (I can capture passing packets from other computers with tcpdump) but whenever I ping it says "destination host unreachable"? [16:51] you have no gateway, shader [16:51] route -n [16:51] wozz: well, I set the default gateway using route add, and that's what I was pinging [16:51] show the output of route -n [16:52] how do I respond to you djhash? [16:52] and ifconfig [16:52] nvm [16:52] wozz: I put the details up on the ubuntu forums here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=854296 [16:52] rausb0: i just installed the .deb package of the adobe-website, it seems to work fine [16:53] can somone help me with directx install [16:53] ohyouknow1987: what are you installing it on? [16:54] ohyouknow1987: You don't install directx on Ubuntu [16:54] ubuntu 8.04 [16:54] im looking at it [16:54] ohyouknow1987, you are trying to install directx into wine? Ive seen some docs on that in the various wine pages.. but the gist was that it rarely works. [16:54] ohyouknow1987: We presume this is for a game? [16:54] reverx: what is the laptop you're planning on getting? [16:54] templar: yes [16:54] ohyouknow1987: Dual boot system with WinXP. [16:55] shader: are you sure your network is a /24 [16:55] wozz: what does that mean? [16:55] How can I confirm for certain ACPI is not currently enabled? [16:55] templar: so there is no way to make linux your true Os if you want to play games? [16:55] how can i burn an iso to dvd that was burned before with another iso??? [16:55] what is hte netmask on your linksys router for the 192.168.1 network [16:55] ohyouknow1987: Some games work with it, but I have 2 dual-boot systems for gaming. [16:56] RAdams: there would be no /proc/acpi directory [16:56] ahh ok [16:56] wozz: 255.255.255.0 [16:56] epaepa: is the DVD a DVD-RW?!! [16:56] can the other devices on your 8 port switch ping the linksys? [16:56] rausb0: thanks [16:56] wozz: yess [16:56] that doesnt make sense [16:57] bad port on your 8 port? [16:57] djhash, nop a dvd r, i burned an iso and left a lot of free space on the dvd, now i dont mind loosing that track i want to burn another iso on the same dvd so i dont spent another one [16:57] wozz: I've already tried swapping ports [16:57] epaepa: depending on whether the disc was closed or not that might not be possible. if it wasn't closed you can just burn it as another track, and then select the session to mount [16:57] shader, your dhclient does not seem to be responding to dhcp, yet your interface is autoconfiging. Try manual setting, it looks like you have tried this maybe? [16:57] wozz: but I wouldn't think that would be a problem since tcpdump captures packets from the network [16:57] linxeh, it isnt closed but cant record it from gnomebaker nor brasero [16:57] epaepa: that's not a very american attitude dood. Use another DVD and toss that one in the trash dood! [16:58] linxeh, im for argentina... not american :P [16:58] ah :) [16:58] That would explain the lack of attitude. [16:58] Jeruvy: yes, I've been manually configuring it [16:58] ;) [16:58] so there is any cdrecord command that i can use?? [16:58] not if you closed the previous session iirc [16:58] i did close it [16:58] i didnt close it sorry [16:59] so how do i do it?? [16:59] wait you said you started by burning an iso though === adante_ is now known as adante [16:59] i think that implies closed [16:59] shader, are you sure your dhcpd (or like tool) is working on the router? [17:00] multi-session is only possible if you started the disc as multi-session [17:00] plase help me to fix audio recording [17:00] Jeruvy: yes, the computer I'm using to communicate with you now got it's address from that dhcp server [17:00] AceTetra, i did... now how can i burn another iso in there? [17:01] help! total newb to linux. screen res. is confined to 640x480 or 800x600. cannot change driver or resolution. have run sudo dpkg -reconfigure phigh xserve -xorg and selectected higher resolutions, but to no avail. Failsafe uses a driver that allows higher res so I have sudo cp xorg.conf.failsafe xorg.conf and restarted x. Still nothing. tried from system>admin.>screens and graphics as well. Nothing seems to work. === ghost is now known as Guest3116 [17:01] shader: so it works ok manual config, but auto config it doesn't get a gateway. I've seen this...is this bugged already? [17:02] Jeruvy: actually, I can't ping under manual config either === kikr_ is now known as kikr [17:03] Jeruvy: but again, I can capture passing packets from ip addresses that I recognize as my other computers [17:03] has someone of you experience with OmageJ? [17:03] stevemac76, restart ur computer go to the recovery mode, and type dpkg reconfigure xsever-xorg i think [17:03] f*ck mean "ImageJ" [17:03] Jeruvy: which is really weird. I would have thought that either one does or does not have a network connection. [17:03] stevemac76, state your video card type also. will be helpfull. [17:04] shader: if the nic is promiscuous then it will allow you to see whatever traffic it does. I'm thinking your nic is fine, but the gateway is broken. I've seen this problem, but only with autoconfig. === Guest3116 is now known as ghost__ [17:04] my audio recording did not work..how to check what happened? [17:04] Jeruvy: hmm, could I be manually configuring wrong? [17:05] goldys: what do you mean exactly by 'fix' ? is it recording something with bad quality, not recording at all .. what application/sound server are you using etcetera, without specific info it's hard to help === zhaozhou_ is now known as zhaozhou [17:05] nVidia Corporation NV5M64 [RIVA TNT2 Model 64/Model 64 Pro] (rev 15) [17:05] glitsj16: thanks foe replying. It doesnt work at all now. how to check? [17:05] stevemac76, did u try like i said? [17:06] glitsj16: it worked before. [17:06] shader: it looks ok to me, but a 2nd opinion never hurt :) I'd remove the dns related entries so we can see if the ip is working. Make sure your netmask is correct for your network [17:06] will do. made the mistake of starting chat on the machine I am working on [17:06] goldys: ok, which application are you using to record ? [17:06] !info OmageJ [17:06] Package omagej does not exist in hardy [17:07] glitsj16: sound worked perfectly...just can record. im using the default sound recorder. [17:07] !info ImageJ [17:07] Package imagej does not exist in hardy [17:07] Jeruvy: so, how do you recommend I proceed? [17:08] shader: sorry im at work [17:08] shader: still having problems? [17:08] goldys: have you checked your mixer to see if the record channels are unmuted ? after an update sometimes they get muted that's why i ask [17:08] In order for me to connect to my wireless router I have to enter http://paste.ubuntu.com/26226/ every time I boot (or reboot) my computer. How can I add this to a start up script so that I don't have to keep doing this everytime I reboot my computer? [17:08] wozz: yep, but don't neglect your work for my sake ;) [17:08] ImageJ is a MacOSX program... === BassKozz-afk is now known as BassKozz [17:08] dont worry shader, i work in a NOC :) [17:08] we have no real work [17:08] hi. i would like to take an ubuntu .deb package, apply a patch to it, and rebuid it, can somebody point me in the direction of a manual/howto ? [17:08] except when something breaks [17:09] Bass: look into the stuff in the network folders [17:09] glitsj16: i did checked it already. it is not mute. [17:09] shader: try the manual config, leave the dns lines commented out. Remove the route (shouldn't need it), then test. I'd check the settings from a working PC and compare also. [17:09] I heard that there were some driver issues with the ATI card. Even if I get a driver through Ubuntu to support it, will I be able to use most of its performance power? [17:09] wozz: Do I need to modify /etc/netorking === sean is now known as Guest24529 [17:09] BassKozz: no === StealthCP_ is now known as StealthCP [17:09] BassKozz: modify if-pre-up.d [17:10] etc [17:10] or you can modify /etc/network/interface [17:10] (interfaces, not interface) [17:10] glitsj16: my audio devices --> 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 02) [17:10] can some one help me with this problem ? when i use pidgin it highlights the window in taskbar but the color is ever so faint and also it does not blink. [17:10] I guess I have to reboot my laptop.. it had 60+ days of uptime :D [17:11] if I modify the interfaces file what do I need to change/add? [17:11] Anyone got Exaile to work with 5.1 surround? [17:11] cemc, why don't you apply the patch to the source package ? [17:11] anyone ? [17:11] krsnadasa: change the preferences [17:11] goldys: okay, i assume if you have playback working ok your sound card isn't the problem [17:11] please repeat help instructions for changing resolution [17:11] Raheem: for what ? [17:11] for pidgin [17:11] Raheem: pidgin or the window manger ? [17:12] Raheem: change them to what ? i mean i did as much as ican [17:12] quick question: where can i find a core dump if my kernel crashed? [17:12] unop: sure, it's fine with me, but i don't know how to start. i did this only with rpm/src.rpms [17:12] goldys: when you run your recording application from a terminal, do you get any errors ? [17:12] Peer 2 Peer file sharing applications such as Frostwire & Limewire are unable to access the internet even though I have an active internet connection. I'm not sure if I have a firewall installed on my machine. Could anybody help? [17:12] krsnadasa: blink on new message .. tick marked [17:12] Raheem: i hate the lil beep sound so that is disabled and the plugin i already enabled but [17:13] Raheem: is that in the plugins menu or pidgin preferances? [17:13] reverx: there is no driver issue with pre-HD ATI cards.. but i'm not sure about full potential usage.. can you elaborate on that? [17:13] right mouse click on the pidgin icon .. change it [17:13] Peer 2 Peer file sharing applications such as Frostwire & Limewire are unable to access the internet even though I have an active internet connection. I'm not sure if I have a firewall installed on my machine. Could anybody help? [17:13] or in preferences menu [17:13] SealedWithAKiss: using a router? [17:14] Raheem: damn i stupid [17:14] :) [17:14] nixnoob, yes. [17:14] Raheem: u would think that they would enable that from start [17:14] SealedWithAKiss: is UPnP enabled on the router? [17:14] Raheem: can you help me with the faint color though ? [17:14] krsnadasa: well.. it is freedom [17:14] cemc, mkdir -p ~/build_dir && cd ~/build_dir && apt-get source package_name # you'll see apt-get download the source into the directory and unpack it into three components, you'll get the original source tarball here, untar that, apply your patch to it, etc .. then tar it back up to the original name and run apt-get -b source package_name [17:14] Raheem: i have emerald installed but can't figgureout how to change the theme ? [17:15] nixnoob, I'm not sure. Should it be? [17:15] djhash: I've been reading about ATI drivers not being open-source. If that's the case than how could Ubuntu access drivers that could take full/most advantage of the built in card? [17:15] krsnadasa: can't u change the theme from emerald ? just double click the them u want [17:15] Raheem: i will try again but last time i did that nothing happened [17:15] Raheem: let me check again [17:16] vokey [17:16] SealedWithAKiss: UPnP is an option on most routers that allows programs to configure port forwarding for their needs most P2P clients work with UPnP, if your router has it then enable it, if not then you need to setup port forwarding manually. [17:16] #semarang [17:16] help! screen res. confined to 640x480 or 800x600. Failsafe xorg.conf file has capability of higher res. so I sudo cp xorg.conf.failsafe xorg.conf. restart x. reboot. normal user mode xorg.conf still displays 800x600 max with no higher res available. [17:16] Raheem: nope [17:16] nixnoob: UPnP is one big security hole [17:16] SealedWithAKiss: in the second case where you need manual port forwarding I suggest trying the P2P client's homepage for instructions and port numbers to forward. [17:17] Raheem: double, triple, quadruple, left and right click don't do anything [17:17] rausb0: only if you download malicous software. [17:17] hhm. can't figure out that .. let someone else come up .. sorry [17:17] Raheem: thanks ;) [17:17] np [17:17] krsnadasa: don't you have an entree in your menu somewhere 'emerald theme manager' ? you change themes from there [17:18] nixnoob, UPnP is enabed already. [17:18] Jeruvy: well, I checked the settings from the vista computer, and they're the same. I also uncommented the static configuration and made eth0 static instead of dhcp. Then I ifdown and ifup-ed, so now static config works. [17:18] reverx, they are not open source but the terms of use on those binary drivers allow for them to be distributed with an open source operating system - you can use fully open-source alternatives, but they tend to lack functionality, are not as reliable, stable, etc [17:18] <``Cube> what CMS or whatever is ubuntu brainstorm built with? [17:18] glitsj16: i got it but it don't change the theme [17:18] <``Cube> what CMS or whatever is ubuntu brainstorm built with? [17:18] Jeruvy: however, I still cannot ping gateway [17:18] I was wondering about the hdapsd package and how to get the daemon running once its installed.... does anyone know? [17:18] 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 02) [17:18] glitsj16: unless i am missing something ? [17:18] krsnadasa: emerald is running at the moment ? [17:18] Jeruvy: not like I expected anything to change. One place I was looking online recommended turning of ipv6. Could that help any? [17:18] glitsj16: *shug* i don't know ? [17:19] ``Cube, I would guess it's drupal [17:19] SealedWithAKiss: when you installed your P2P client it should do a series of tests to establish the ports are open, if it doesn't work then I suggest manual forwarding, it is also possible that your ISP has blocked well known P2P ports. [17:19] can anyone shed some light on the resolution situation. I am new to linux. [17:19] <``Cube> psychomieze: aight, thanks! [17:19] unop: I guess my question then is, to what extent can I expect the card to reliable. [17:19] Anyone know x terminal software on pc-windows connect to x-server on ubuntu. [17:19] glitsj16: how do i check ? [17:19] krsnadasa: try entering "emerald --replace &" from terminal to check [17:20] unop: nevermind - I get the idea [17:20] nixnoob, P2P applications work on Windows. My ISP wouldn't block well known P2P ports. [17:20] reverx, with the open-source alternatives? i guess that depends on your needs, usage, expectations, etc -- you'll have to try them out [17:20] glitsj16 : playback worked fine. how to run recording in terminal? [17:20] glitsj16: that worked ;) [17:20] <__Ping__> krsnadasa: Y'know what would make your life easier? fusion-icon. [17:20] glitsj16: but how do i get it to do that automagicaly ? [17:20] nixnoob, I think I may have installed a firewall a while back. [17:20] hi does anyone know how I can remove 'select language' and 'select session' from gdm login window?

[17:21] shader, i just joined #ubuntu and your comment struck me because I'm having a problem for which people suggest disabling ipv6. what problem are you having?

[17:21] !avant | djhash [17:21] Sorry, I don't know anything about avant [17:21] nixnoob, Would that have anything to do with it? [17:21] thanks..lol.. [17:21] __Ping__: that will help with it autmagicaly starting? === Starnestommy is now known as sheep [17:21] SealedWithAKiss: yes if you installed a firewall that would be your problem, if P2p worked on windows chances are that UPnP is working properly and the settings are correct for your linux P2p clients as well. [17:21] reverx, if you are looking for an entirely free and open source version of ubuntu -- look at gobuntu [17:21] SealedWithAKiss: would this firewall be called firestarter? === eth01 is now known as goat [17:22] Firestarter rings a bell. [17:22] or gnewsense [17:22] nixnoob, [17:22] stevemac76: what video card ? [17:22] goldys: open a terminal, and enter the command to start your sound recording application manually, that way you'll see warnings and error messages in the terminal if any [17:22] Hello all, I am using DELL Inspiron 6400 with ubuntu hardy. I am able to use ricoh SD card reader or mmc but not lucky enough with memory stick duo. Is that specific for my hardware or that was general problem. [17:22] nixnoob, it really rings a bell. [17:22] majikins: have you checked in system, administration, login window? [17:22] <__Ping__> krsnadasa: yes and no. You have to add it to your autostarted programs list (different depending on KDE or GNOME) but it _will_ make your life easier by allowing you to quickly switch between your default WM and Compiz, and select Emerald or the default window decorator using menus [17:22] DNE: well, whenever I ping my default gateway it says "destination host unreachable" However, everything seems properly configured, and I can capture traffic with tcpdump when my nic is in promiscuous mode === goat is now known as eth01 [17:22] gotta go, dinner is ready [17:22] SealedWithAKiss: ok, well I have no experience with firestarter except for the fact that its a frontend for ubuntu's firewall... you'll have to ask someone with experience configuring firestarter. [17:23] seisen, gnewsense isn't endorsed by ubuntu tho - but yea, it's close enough [17:23] __Ping__: cool [17:23] DNE: what's your problem? [17:23] Does anything look wrong with this command: cp -r /media/sda2/Docs/My\ Music/*.mp3 /media/sda2/zvm/ [17:23] elmer: aye [17:23] unop: It looks like I'm not near experienced enough to try gobuntu [17:23] shader, ah, ok. that's not my problem. :) Sorry. my problem is far more generic. I can ping google.com and get replies, the host resolves correctly, but I connect [17:24] sorry, i meant to say i can't connect [17:24] lspci gives nVidia Corporation NV5M64 [RIVA TNT2 Model 64/Model 64 Pro] (rev 15) [17:24] *sigh*.. why can't we have autocomplete with apt-get?!! i mean the package list/db is downloaded at every update.... [17:24] DNE: odd [17:24] DNE: you can't connect to google ? [17:24] i can't connect to anything, actually [17:24] nixnoob, Would Firestarter block the P2P applications attempted connections? And if so, why doesn't it interfere with the applications I use? [17:24] elmer: cp -r /media/sda2/docs/my*/*.mp3 [17:24] but i can ping everything [17:24] djhash: I have autocomplete with apt-get [17:24] DNE: as in with a webbrowser ? [17:24] elmer, what are you expecting it to do? [17:24] Hello all, I am using DELL Inspiron 6400 with ubuntu hardy. I am able to use ricoh SD card reader or mmc but not lucky enough with memory stick duo. Is that specific for my hardware or that was general problem. [17:24] Slart: really? how? [17:25] DNE, have you tried telnet? [17:25] stevemac76: open system>Admin>Hardware Drivers is there a box to enable video driver? [17:25] eth01, that could copy stuff of other directories too -- not really a good idea [17:25] nixnoob, * other applications I use [17:25] shader: you can't telnet to google.com [17:25] unop: it wasn't the whole command only part. [17:25] it was the bit which was incorect FYI. [17:25] ikonia, i'm configuring a server, so not really. i noticed this when i tried to apt-get. it just never connected. wget does the same thing for every web site [17:25] ikonia: you can telnet to port 80 though ;) [17:25] djhash: I type sudo apt-get install openoff and press .. it just fills in the rest [17:25] eth01, but he could extrapolate on your example and end up with a mess he didn't want, :) [17:25] shader: you expect noobs to use a webrowser not telnet. [17:25] DNE: so what are you talking about when you say you can't connect to google.com [17:25] shader: an excellent point [17:25] SealedWithAKiss: depending on how you set it up when you installed it, it could block ports over or below a certain number as well as certain specific ports. It all depends on how you set it up in the first place I'm not familiar with its default settings. [17:26] shader: there are better tools to use instead of telnet. [17:26] sorry about that, WiFi died. [17:26] Does anything look wrong with this command: cp -r /media/sda2/Docs/My\ Music/*.mp3 /media/sda2/zvm/ [17:26] ikonia, "Connecting to google.com|64.233.167.99|:80..." [17:26] unop: not helpful. [17:26] DNE: what are you connecting with ? [17:26] does anyone know of a mailing list or site for fakeraid/dmraid help? [17:26] Pici: probably, but I was wondering what it said when he tried. [17:26] nixnoob, I left them all default. [17:26] Pici: and I don't know any of them [17:26] ikonia, wget and apt-get both have the same problem [17:26] linuxkrn: I strongly advice you not to use dmraid [17:26] Slart: it wont auto complete when you are in root... [17:26] ikonia, i'm sure it's not the client [17:26] eth01, better this way "/media/sda2/Docs/My Music"/*.mp3 [17:26] SealedWithAKiss: sorry, I don't even know what the defaults are :( [17:26] unop: again, not helpful. [17:26] djhash: "in root" ?? you mean logged in as root? [17:27] legend2440: I have enabled proprietary drivers, but changed back because res was better with old one. [17:27] elmer, nothing looks wrong with it -- but again, what are you trying to do? [17:27] ikonia: I know, you told me that before, and as I've said, I have to use it. but thanks [17:27] Pici: actually, telnet is probably a bad choice, since it doesn't seem to give very useful error messages [17:27] Slart: yes.. [17:27] linuxkrn: why do you have to use it ? [17:27] unop, I'm trying to copy all my MP3s to a folder called zvm [17:27] djhash: one more reason not to log in as root... [17:27] DNE: are you running a firewall at all, on ether your ubuntu machine, or your router ? [17:27] stevemac76: open system>preferences>screen Resolution no options for resolutions there? [17:27] SealedWithAKiss: which client in particular? [17:27] legend2440: when I changed back to old driver the res was restricted to 800x600 and now I cannot change drivers. [17:27] djhash: it's probably something that's just setup for the regular user [17:27] shader: what does route -n show for you? only need the line starting with 0.0.0.0 :) [17:27] I am thinking of running WinXP Pro on VirtualBox on Ubuntu 8.04 on my Dell 1525 laptop. The point is Dell 1525 doesn't have drivers for XP, I have the vista disc and vista drivers that dell supplied. So my question is, would I need drivers to get proper audio, video resolution, webcam support, wireless networking after I install WinXP as guest OS? [17:28] ikonia: I'm dual booting on SSD drives (64GB) and using windows xp. I also need over 64GB for windows. :-/ [17:28] ok how do i set emerald to start up every time automatically ? [17:28] nixnoob, I just checked. I don't have Firestarter installed on my system. [17:28] elmer, than linke unop says it seems to be the right command [17:28] Slart: probably...meh.. I get tired to typing sudo before every command.. [17:28] sdakak: no, the virtual machine will not need any extra drivers from the disk since the hardware is all generic and virtual. [17:28] Limewire & Frostwire nixnoob [17:28] linuxkrn: then you are finished [17:28] ikonia, iptables isn't running, and I don't see another firewall... I'll brb and check on the hardware. [17:28] elmer, cp -Rv "/media/sda2/Docs/My Music"/*.mp3 /media/sda2/zvm/ [17:28] Khisanth: well, once I've told it to add my default gateway it shows: 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.1 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 eth0 [17:28] linuxkrn: grub cannot boot from raid 0 [17:29] any one ? [17:29] ok how do i set emerald to start up every time automatically ? [17:29] SealedWithAKiss: then I'm stumped, what error do you get or is it just a connection failure? [17:29] nixnoob: How will I get webcame support, wireless supoort, proper resolution without proper drivers? [17:29] Khisanth: you can look at the gory details here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=854296 [17:29] ikonia: there are posts for workarounds for that [17:29] unop, I'm getting this: "cp: cannot stat `/media/sda2/Docs/My Music/*.mp3': No such file or directory" [17:29] linuxkrn: not for your disk controller [17:29] The connection just times out nixnoob . [17:29] No error [17:29] djhash: hehe.. well.. it's in a file somewhere.. I remember running into that file by mistake.. [17:29] sdakak: you will not be able to access your 3d card, you can only get USB support if u use the closed source version of vbox from their site not the one from the repos. [17:29] legend2440: nope. 640x480 or 800x600 and when I do try to change driver and restart x, no difference and the driver that was there before I changed is back. [17:30] djhash: might have been .bashrc or something like that [17:30] elmer, or better, find "/media/sda2/Docs/My Music/" -type f -iname "*.mp3" -exec cp '{}' /media/sda2/zvm/ \; [17:30] emerald auto start, anyone ? [17:30] nixnoob: WHat about intel wireless? [17:30] SealedWithAKiss: hmmm, I have no idea im sorry [17:30] hi all, i got a wlan-card installed and it works all fine, my question is how can i deaktivate the card by default and only activate if i need it?? [17:30] nixnoob, thanks anyway. [17:30] elmer, cp would fail there if "My Music" has no mp3 files directly within it - and i assume that is what has happened [17:30] sdakak: you wont need wireless the virtual machine will share your host OS's connection via NAT [17:31] ikonia: I haven't confirmed that yet, as I'm still working on the dmraid seeing the array [17:31] ikonia, the guy who would know (i'm connecting through ssh and have root access, but I don't know much about the machine itself) isn't available at the moment. would you be willing to assume that it's not a firewall problem? what are the other options? [17:31] linuxkrn: no - it won't work, your the guy with the sony laptop right ? [17:31] unop, OH! that's probably it. The command you just gave me is working. Thanks! [17:31] ikonia: no, it's a dell [17:31] nixnoob: Is there any other detail that I should be careful of before I start? [17:31] linuxkrn: Hmm, maybe it's not you then [17:31] unop, I'm saving that in my helpful.txt [17:31] linuxkrn: what disk controller is in the dell [17:31] ikonia: it's an Intel Matrix controller [17:31] Slart: AWN... needs to implement an Alert box.. so when people try to run it without turning on compiz.. they'll be told they need to have it running!!!! [17:31] ikonia, the problem came out of the blue - I'm pretty sure no firewall was installed to reconfigured to trigger this [17:31] sdakak: what you are failing to understand is that the virtual machine wil not be running on your hardware but rather on virtual hardware created by vbox [17:32] elmer, cool [17:32] Does anybody know how to find out which firewall I have on my system? [17:32] stevemac76: well you could try envyng-gtk in synaptic. it downloads and configures latest driver. it works for my ati radeon card. not sure how well it works with nvidia but might be worth a try [17:32] DNE: traceroute to a known good address [17:32] nixnoob: Right. Does that mean I can get 1200x800 video resolution on the guest OS? [17:32] quest: how can I type norwegian letters like å,ø,æ ? [17:32] legend2440 I'll give it a shot. [17:32] hi does anyone know how I can restrict users to a browser login that only shows shutdown and restart? [17:32] ikonia, :) I'd love to, but the tracert program isn't installed [17:32] DNE: the command is traceroute [17:33] sdakak: nothing in particular that I can think of, if you are trying to do a "seamless" windows and you have compiz runnig there may need to be some adjusting, you can get any type of video resolution you want, just no 3d inside the VM [17:33] I don't want them to be able to choose language or session [17:33] ikonia, that's not installed either [17:33] i think some ubuntu hardy update went wrong as since a couple of software updates that the update manager made me too I can't seem to run properly warcraft III over wine whenever I try to play it (with opengl), the graphics start going crazy, totally crazy. it gets all blurry and also the screen seems like it's divided in 2 vertically and there are 2 copies of the desktop. i can barely see the colors and the windows. even if I exit warcraft the graphic glitc [17:33] alraune, unicode characters. Use Ctrl+Shift+Unicode code (usually something like U2A5 or similar) [17:33] shader: if you ping 192.168.1.255 does anything answer? [17:33] nixnoob: You have really been great help. Thank you :) [17:33] sdakak: no prob [17:33] currently using gdm but don't know how to get rid of 'select language and session' from options [17:34] hey, I'm seem to be having a problem after I updated to the new compiz fusion version. In the manager, the options I select are being undone by themselves. Anybody know why? Or know a fix? [17:34] DNE: ok, then use the test mentioned earlier telnet www.google.com 80 [17:34] nixnoob, you seem quite knowedgeable. So why 'nixnoob'?. [17:34] lol [17:34] Just new to Unix? [17:34] SealedWithAKiss: I was a nixnoob about a year ago. the name just stuck. [17:35] lol [17:35] bump! [17:35] hi all [17:35] You've come a long way then, nixnoob .'

[17:36] DNE: no - thats opendns cache [17:36] Khisanth: no, it just sits there for a while [17:36] ikonia: what do you mean? [17:36] DNE: are you dns servers open dns ? [17:36] Hi, I am wondering if anyone would be willing to help me install a belkin wifi, I'm a new to linux :S [17:36] SealedWithAKiss: the only two OSs I had ever used before *buntu were Knoppix and Zenwalk. [17:37] anyone know any ftp apps that can look for updated files per date and also do wildcard searches?? lftp can do only newer but now wildcards, suggestions? [17:37] ikonia: how do i find out? [17:37] SealedWithAKiss: and those only to fix broken windows installs. [17:37] legend2440: envyng-gtk doesn't seem to be available through synaptic. what repository?

I'll load it manually [17:45] ikonia: i'm sorry, i wish i knew. my IT guy should be chatting with you instead of me. i was merely given this server to configure for a Rails project I'm working on, and sometime during the process i just stopped being able to connect to my repository servers [17:46] lorenzo, wmv videos work fine with totem-plugin for me [17:46] blokkie: just to clarify its not "iwl" its iwl3945 or something similar [17:46] DNE: well, I can only make an assumption from what I've seen, but if you tell your IT guy, it looks like the router is firewalling port 80 [17:46] billgoldberg, thanks. indeed i am sure it is my problem, i just dont know how to solve it [17:46] blokkie: i cant tell you exactly as im not at my laptop right now.

So it must have connected on it's own, right? or do you need a gw to ping those other ip addresses? [17:48] blokkie: are you using a debian derivative? [17:48] bobertdos, i have followed the medibuntu wiki already, but no joy :) [17:48] IdleOne, thanks for trying :) [17:48] hello all. I'm much more used to gentoo than ubuntu. In gentoo, there is "rc-status" to show you what programs are started in the current runlevel. Is there an equivalent command for ubuntu?

What's ext3 file size limit? I'm afraid my 3.3gig download will get stuck somewhere... [19:35] you'll need to make the partition bootable in that case === eric is now known as talntiid [19:35] _Brun0_: you'll be fine [19:35] _Brun0_ you are safe [19:36] sn9_: Hmm odd cause its not there Either searching for it or scrolling through all [19:36] Thoku, errm, it should be bootable already, he just needs to replace the windows bootloader with grub === Mike is now known as MikeCulver [19:36] is the "show details" switch on some boot splash screens a function of that splash, or something internal to that build of grub? (i.e in FC9 i can switch back and forth between details and progress bar, and Ubuntu only shows a progress bar that needs fiddling with the config file to change) [19:36] <_Brun0_> jbroome, Thoku: are you guys sure? http://linuxmafia.com/faq/VALinux-kb/2gb-filesize-limit.html [19:36] _Brun0_: The filesize limit is so large it's almost inconceivable you'll ever actually hit it [19:36] unop: grub is not a partition flag :P [19:36] Jpratt: it's there, i'm sure [19:36] _Brun0_: more than a terabyte [19:37] Thoku, yes i know, but windows does not modify linux partition flags -- it just overwrites the MBR [19:37] hello [19:37] _Brun0_: Don't worry I have video files bigger than that [19:37] I'm searching for a GBA emulator for linux, suggestions? [19:37] I'm having issues with tiny font on a fresh 8.04 install. The type is nearly unreadable it's so small.. I remember using dpkg-reconfigure on my xserver before to fix this, but it doesn't work. How do I fix this? [19:37] _Brun0_: the 4GB iso on my desktop seems to imply that it's ok [19:37] Stormx2: I cant find i there I get to much data on my screen :S [19:38] unop: Does it not still have to the partition as bootable? [19:38] Jpratt: you don't need to search; just select the All category, click on any pkg, and type "b43" [19:38] Anyone here using Conky knows how to append 0 to numbers smaller than 10, etc ? [19:38] _Brun0_: and that link is from 2005 [19:38] xintron: If you can't find any try looking to see if any run on wine [19:38] <_Brun0_> Thank you guys! In M$ products you have to pay BIG $$$ to have OS capable handling of large files. Thanks jbroome, Thoku, NickGarvey and genii. [19:38] sn9_:Found it, Had to change download server from US to Main [19:38] DarkAudit, it's specific to the boot splash program, and not grub. Ubuntu uses usplash for the splash screen. [19:38] Jpratt: that's weird [19:38] MikeCulve: how about changing dpi [19:38] Thoku: Yeah, but I don'r want that if anyone knows a good emu. But I'll keep on searching :)( [19:39] zhangchipku: how do I go about properly doing that? [19:39] Thoku, /boot should still be untouched, and yes, it needs to be set bootable -- but that is no good without a bootloader (that can boot up linux ) [19:39] sn9_: that happans [19:39] In the page I was given it says to type find /boot/grub/stage1 I just get the error file not found. [19:39] howto change the driver used for my DVD/CD drive? THere most be somethings wrong when I copyied a 700mb avi from a dataDVD the transfer was only with 2,7MB/s :S [19:39] Jpratt: yes, that's why i always set mine to Main [19:39] unop: I know you need the bootloader. I thought you were saying windows didn't set it's own partition to have a bootable flag [19:40] MikeCulve: right click on desktop-change desktop background-fonts-details, change dpi to 96 [19:40] Thoku, it overwrites the MBR and you need to undo that change [19:41] zhangchipku: this is in Xubuntu. I'm recycling the login now to check. [19:41] * Jpratt Gives sn9_ a Hug "thank you very much" [19:41] unop: Agreed, but a boot loader cannot load an OS if the partition isn't bootable [19:41] zhangchipku: sure enough, it did. Thank you! I should have seen that option before. [19:41] Jpratt: works? [19:41] Thanks a lot for help guys, seems to be working properly. :-) [19:42] sn9_: yeps [19:42] hugging is banned [19:42] hi [19:42] MikeCulver: that will only work for gnome though [19:42] eth01: ahh why [19:42] I'm having some video driver problems, can anyone tell me how to setup Nvidia Drivers. I have Nvidia 6200 and I think I have the correct driver installed, but am not getting any results [19:42] im rather new to linux in general, and im wondering is there a reaosn i cannot use www.pandora.com (plays music) and the game glest at thwe same time? [19:42] bhaal: #freenode [19:42] Thoku, i agree -- but what i am saying is windows is not clever enough to go about changing flags on a linux /boot partition -- so /boot should still be set bootable -- all windows does is write to the MBR not the partition holding /boot [19:42] I cant get the ubuntu iiso to boot on my machine, it says I dont have a math coproc......now what? [19:42] firefox only starts in fullscreen mode, so i cant resize the window, i have to close it via xkill - any ideas? [19:43] javatexan: is it a 386? [19:43] Thoku: Found Visualboy Advance in the repos :D [19:43] whenever i try to run pandora or glest after the other is running either pandora does not play music and goes grey, or glest simply does not start [19:43] blumm: F11 ? [19:43] yeah....its a SOC RISC pretending to be a 486 but it doesnt have the coproc....its a vortexSX86 from http://www.vortex86sx.com/default.htm [19:43] xintron: ah cool. I will have to give it a try :) [19:43] MikeCulver: for xfce, [19:44] genii: thanks :D [19:44] anyone running rtl8187b-modified-dist.tar.gz ??? [19:44] javatexan: oh, that's not going to be simple; you will definitely need a custom kernel [19:44] for wifi [19:44] unop: The original question was asking about partition flags " Lst question, should my ubuntu partition have any flags?" [19:44] gedit ~/.Xdefaults, write Xft.dpi: 96 [19:44] tecnic2008: i have; doesn't work [19:44] blumm: np [19:44] sn9_: I was afraid of that [19:44] tecnic2008: I use it for my Trendnet tew-424ub USB wireless adapter. [19:45] hmmm [19:45] hi can i have some help with empathy and voice chat please? [19:45] sn9_: can I build the kernel to work within the instalation process [19:45] I got it to work for awhile [19:45] on my gateway t 1625 [19:45] every time I use the ubuntu updates it shuts off my rtl8187b-modified-dist.tar.gz [19:45] tecnic2008: It works for me, but I only use that adapter when I need monitor mode for some reason === s`s is now known as s`s{away} [19:45] Thoku, i must have missed that -- but it still doesn't make a difference /boot (or its flags) remains unchanged after installing windows [19:46] tecnic2008: yep [19:46] does anyone know why i cannot run www.pandora.com at the same time i can run a game called glest, but either one runs fine by itself? [19:46] unop: I missed the first part of the convo. I didn't realise he was installing windows and was therefore taking a much more general response to the question [19:46] this time, I cannot get it back online :( I'm on ubuntu 64 bit desktop edition [19:46] tecnic2008: it's not worth it [19:46] no? [19:47] should I just buy a usb wifi card? [19:47] yes [19:47] how do i initiate a call in empathy? [19:47] is it just me with a very dark hoovering colour inside Firefox 3 please? When moving my mouse over the menubar in FF the "select" colour is dark blue making it impossible to see what it says underneath [19:47] where's the channel for wireless ubuntu? [19:47] Thoku, he installed windows on a second drive but failed at that, formatted that drive and decided to come back to ubuntu, but couldn't .. [19:47] this helped a lot... [19:48] cn1ght: Are they both trying to use the sound daemon at the same time? [19:48] unop: aaah lol. That makes sense now :) [19:48] tecnic2008: well, there is #wireless in general [19:48] kk [19:48] How can I get syntax highlighting in vim on Hardy Heron?

In the Transmission GUI, it says I am sending 20-30 KiB/s for three files (total is around 85 KiB/s). When I look in System Monitor, it says I am sending 200 KiB/s . Why do you think there is such a big difference of totals? [20:24] Shujah, absolutely. [20:25] can apt-get search packages? [20:25] Shujah, pulseaudio works when I start it manually. [20:25] For Window List in Panel, how can i make it so that i don't see the icons ? [20:25] Whats with all the people enabling and using the root account on Ubuntu lately? I don't understand it. [20:25] Algeris: apt-cache, not apt-get [20:25] But the init.d script doesn't make it work, Shujah.

[20:26] nixnoob, probably root is cool for them [20:26] alraune: you can't delete the file as a normal user, you have to remove it as root : sudo rm -f /usr/sbin/sshd [20:26] alraune: is the daemon running? perhaps stopping the process will allow it to be deleted /etc/init.d/sshd stop [20:26] sn9_: I've never quite understood what the section stuff was about.. I thought it was just like sections of the man pages.. I think I have to do some reading [20:26] nixnoob: Maybe an indication many people switching from Microsoft operating systems, where they expect they need to be Administrator to do anything. [20:26] dj hash did you get that? [20:27] nixnoob, what password does root have in a standard ubuntu installtion? some gibberish? [20:27] sn9_: /usr/sbin/sshd not found ??!! [20:27] m-c: I don't see why sudo is so difficult to understand? Half the benefit derived from switching to Linux is negated by using the root account all the time. [20:27] MindVirus, It does not work at al;l or the sound is buggy? [20:27] Shujah, it works when I put "pulseaudio" in a console. [20:27] Algeris: There is no root password in a standard Ubuntu installation [20:27] Algeris: it doesn't have one.. there's no hash defined for the root account [20:27] Algeris: I don't know I have never attempted to enable it.

[20:28] Algeris: You can verify this by examing the /etc/shadow file, the hash has a "!" which it is not possible for any password to hash to that [20:28] nixnoob: tried long ago, even autoremove package is done...uaaa [20:28] Shujah, do you not understand? [20:28] Shujah, pulseaudio starts. [20:28] Algeris: you have to install manpages-dev for the system calls..

[21:10] Sorry, shoulda used tinyurl [21:11] skytimer: once the install finished , sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start [21:11] hallo [21:11] How can I change PulseAudio's EQ while it's running? [21:11] hi, i have a problem with my kubuntu hardy + sound.. even though kmixer and alsamixer show the soundcard with volume and not muted i can not hear anything... under windows i hear perfectly well sound [21:11] Is it possible to mount something and give full access to a regular user? [21:12] nixnoob: alright I'll get on that, and see what happens, thx for help [21:12] root_, yes. [21:12] ciauz [21:12] skytimer: no prob. [21:12] ChBrain: #kubuntu might be much more helpful [21:12] how i can enable Esperanto language for a GNOME session in GDM? I have installed all the langpacks and restarted GDM, but it's not listed. [21:12] !ircasroot [21:12] Sorry, I don't know anything about ircasroot [21:12] sorry raheem_ .. i switch over [21:12] !rootirc [21:12] It's not technically our business, but we'd like to tell you that IRC'ing as root is a Very Bad Idea (tm). After all, doing anything as root when root is not needed is bad, and especially bad with software that connects to the Internet. [21:12] i have put my hdd in my new pc! and it doesnt show my cd drives [21:13] ASULutzy: most irc clients give warnings if they are ignored then there is no hope. [21:13] bye [21:13] I have a suggestion. Busty Bunny [21:13] hey, im trying to setup a partition on my main drive to put Ubuntu 8.0.4.1 on it, but i can't partition the drive [21:14] failure: pardon ? [21:14] release name [21:14] i have put my hdd in my new pc! and it doesnt show my cd drives [21:14] Eck0: whats the issue ? [21:14] failure: I'm very upset that it was Hardy Heron and not Hungry Hippo [21:14] Says my drive is locked [21:14] Eck0: what progeram are you using; get any error msg? [21:14] Eck0: more details please, like what cmd used.. etc [21:14] do i need a drivers for my new cd roms [21:14] ASULutzy, I think we all were. [21:14] Eck0: thats a new one on me. [21:14] im trying to use gparted and i can't [21:15] it has windows on the drive [21:15] Eck0, why not partition from the installer? [21:15] Eck0: how did you launch gparted ? [21:15] failure: they're going alphabetically [21:15] because i can't format my full drive [21:15] Eck0, have you tried using WUBI? [21:15] Eck0: maybe the partitions are mounted unmount them [21:15] it makes life ALOT easier [21:15] Eck0: you don't have to format the full drive [21:15] Eck0: Locked? Don't you get an issue about that if you use an NTFS drive and it's in need of a chkdsk? [21:15] Dillizar: Almost certainly not. [21:15] m0d_hippY: wubi is still experimental, really shouldn't be the first port of call [21:15] failure: too bad they didn't use Diarrhoeic Dragon [21:15] You generally don't need drivers for new IDE/SATA devices. [21:15] lol SeveredCross [21:15] not that i know of [21:16] Eck0: Most of the folks in here would not suggest using wubi, in fact all of the ops would probably advise against that I'd be willing to bet [21:16] SeveredCross: i have a new pc [21:16] wubi? [21:16] ahh ok, I've used it on several primary WIndows machines and it worked flawlessly on all occasions, but thanks for the insight [21:16] Eck0: forget wubi [21:16] SeveredCross: and i put my hdd === neowiec is now known as tn712 [21:16] !enter Dillizar [21:16] Sorry, I don't know anything about enter dillizar [21:16] Bah. [21:16] Dillizar: Please don't use enter as punctuation. [21:16] okay, so how i can partition the drive? [21:16] you can use gparted [21:16] or from windows you can use partitionmagic [21:17] the drive has a little "key" symbol next to it and wont letm e partition [21:17] or even the built in partition editor on the Live CD [21:17] genii: how did you get to that d/l page? [21:17] After Intrepid Ibex will be Juxtaposed Jackass [21:17] that means the drive is mounted.. right mouse click on it & selelct unmount [21:17] i can't edit it since it locked from the windows side [21:17] billgoldberg: I get the message 'unknown codec' in the terminal when I go to covert. Any ideas? [21:17] make sure it's not mounted & that it's an active partition [21:17] if i do i can't change the size for some reason [21:17] sn9_: Grom google [21:17] *From [21:17] Eck0: check that the windows partitioon is not mounted [21:17] your drive WILL be locked if it's in use [21:18] nixnoob: you should go to the release name suggestion wiki page and add that [21:18] my main problem is i have to use ap rogram to connet to my college inet === tn712 is now known as neowiec [21:18] what SeveredCross [21:18] so i can't talk while im on linux [21:18] sn9_: I knew about this driver however because I bugged them on Dell's forum for it for a long time [21:18] Dillizar: Keep the story all on 1 line, okay? [21:18] you need to use an application like partition magic and run it from dos, or run partition magic then restart the pc and let it partition your drive through DOS === gardar is now known as gardar`afk [21:18] sn9_: lol I'm sure they would appreciate my eloquent choice. [21:18] chBrain: u see your card in alsamixer, you put up the gains, wiring (windows) is correct ? === neowiec is now known as tn712 [21:18] winff can play the flv files, but can it covert then to ipod? [21:18] Eck0, yes you can.

[21:24] quick question on my part. Is there any site or list of applications that I can remove from the Ubuntu Live CD? I want to strip down the Live CD to bare minimums, but I want it to still operate properly. Just don't need any of the applications, games and everything else installed [21:24] <_odin> hehe, i got that now. thanks guys :) [21:24] m0d_hippY: I think there is a minimal install cd already.. might be easier to start from that and add the stuff you want [21:24] m0d_hippY-> try installing with debootstrap, you will get the barest minimum [21:25] how do i get youtube videos to work? i installed medibuntu packages and installed win32codecs etc [21:25] ikonia, maybe all the repo stuff is blocking a proper install! [21:25] yo: ok, first go to synaptic package manager (system -> administration ) and search for winff. Right-click it an choose: completly remove. Do the same for "ffmpeg". Then install the medibuntu repo (the first point in this guide: http://linuxowns.wordpress.com/2008/06/23/install-audio-and-video-codecs-in-ubuntu/). Then install ffmpeg again, idem dito for winff [21:25] idefix: no [21:25] ahh ok thanks. I wish I knew that earlier ha thanks [21:25] anabolix: flashplayer-nonfree [21:25] m0d_hippY, you might want to use the "minimal" CD. it will install the bare minimum, and let you add the stuff you want besides that [21:25] anabolix: you just need flashplugin-nonfree package [21:25] brb [21:25] !minimal > m0d_hippY [21:25] are you telling me that everything installed from bin files is inferioir to repo software? you are.. [21:25] m0d_hippY, please see my private message [21:25] idefix: thats not what I said at all [21:25] thanks [21:25] but but [21:25] ok thanks everyone [21:25] idefix: but nothing [21:25] I checked every java thing in the repos and it simply doesn't work [21:26] m0d_hippY: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD [21:26] idefix: define "doesnt work" [21:26] join #nomaden [21:26] m0d_hippY-> not too late, if you have another spare partition, you can install with debootstrap and you get a bare minimum [21:26] Hi all, installed Ubuntu 8.04 on /dev/sda3, windows on /dev/sda1.

[22:13] anyone know where i can download Kppp and Kppp logviewer [22:13] Its on an old inspiron 2500 =/ [22:13] eck0: it should be a case of dragging the sizes you want [22:14] zippo_: the one you like the best is the best [22:14] untraceable try in google [22:14] zippo: utorrent [22:14] eck0: I believe someone suggested you boot into widows first though and run a chkdisk and defrag first [22:14] zhangchipku: I must be missing something because it still won't let me re-install it. [22:14] i did [22:14] rsty, what happens eventually, after the buffer errors? [22:14] zippo_: I'm rather fond of deluge. It's accessible in the repositories if you care to look. [22:14] zippo_: best is very personal, but transmisson and deluge are 2 very stable ones [22:14] mneptok: That's when i get the error. I can't call anyone. I have googled and i'm not alone with the problem :P [22:14] guess ill try it again huh [22:14] eck0: how full is the disk [22:14] gnomefreak: great suggestion ;) i'll keep that in mine when looking for fav apps. [22:14] 99gb outa 307gb [22:14] Syntax error on line 301 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: [22:14] Invalid command 'UserDir', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration [22:14] does anyone know how i could get my panels transparent black [22:14] zippo: transmission is rather minimalistic. If you want to try deluge, "sudo apt-get install deluge-torrent" will install it, complete with dependencies. [22:14] so i have like 180gb or so free [22:15] in plus [22:15] i've been usein deluge for a long time. and sometimes i get some connection problem's there were lot of hosts but it didint wanted to connect [22:15] zippo_, personally I use uTorrent in WINE, but that's because I use uTorrent in Windows, so I like the familiarity. [22:15] jm2k: well since there are many torrent apps some cli others gui cant tell you the best [22:15] eck0: more than reasonable [22:15] yo: are you sure you have enabled gusty backport and unsupported? and medibuntu is also gusty? [22:15] is there a ubuntu help channel? [22:15] yea, that is what im saying, im not sure why it wont, damn vista imo! [22:15] timandtom: why in wine why not in linux? [22:15] mikroTorrent is nice but'a on wine? [22:15] timandtom: I'm a little bit concerned about the use of closed source software, so I tend to stay away from utorrent [22:15] Trunkz: you need to add refresh rates to an config file [22:15] rsty, what happens eventually, after the buffer errors? [22:15] rsty: youve found it [22:15] there is no uTorrent for linux? [22:15] they keep going on [22:15] forever [22:15] gnomefreak, wait, does it work natively in Linux? [22:16] zippo_: yes there is [22:16] rsty: you are here; today is the first day of the rest of your life [22:16] re-occuring [22:16] VelcroMan: does the mic work with other apps? [22:16] Thanks [22:16] rsty, is it the same error over and over? [22:16] yes [22:16] timandtom: there is a version IIRC [22:16] Good Day To ya'll [22:16] Cya. [22:16] Kitu: the module exists /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_userdir.so [22:16] some boots its i/o buffer error on device sd0 [22:16] what does it mean if there is a little orange dot next to a file? [22:16] zhangchipku: I went to the repositories in synaptic and checked unsupported-backports. should I have done something else? [22:16] sometimes its on device sr1 [22:16] gnomefreak, huh, shweeeet, I'll hafta look into that later :) [22:16] and somtimes on sr0 [22:16] depends on what method i use [22:16] timandtom: give me a minute [22:16] Do they go fast like if you held down the key on a keyboard, or are they delayed? [22:16] gnomefreak: Can you install it through the repositories? [22:16] ikonia, it exists yes [22:16] delayed [22:17] but re-occuring [22:17] gnomefreak: Is there a .deb file to try it out? [22:17] id say 3-5 seconds [22:17] timandtom: http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?id=16123 [22:17] corollax: see above link [22:17] has a recent update broke the disk and filesystem applet in kde? [22:17] but i don't know to configure [22:17] zhangchipku: I think I must not have done that step correctly. sorry for the noob question, but how do I do that? [22:17] theres a 10 line prompt [22:17] gnomefreak: Thanks! [22:17] and the errors at the end [22:17] corollax: i havent built one [22:17] error is* [22:17] yo:find the file with dependency problem and package-force version to the required [22:17] I would just let it set there, for a long time and wait untill, x starts, or if you wait a day. [22:17] mneptok: No it doesnt. But, i can hear myself when i speak [22:17] i did [22:17] <[TiZ]> I want to get rid of Rhythmbox, but I can't because apparently, the music player panel applet depends on it. But I'm tired of Rhythmbox popping up whenever I plug my iPod in (there's nothing to see there anyways; I use rockbox). And I don't use it for music; I prefer Quod Libet. How can I make Rhythmbox leave me alone? [22:17] alright I'm trying to add a repository issue, I want to add easycam to reposiorty for download and isntall but I'm following ubuntu 6.02 (old) direction. I'm in software sources, but am wondering what to do there to add repository so I can try this software out [22:18] i left my pc on for about 12 hours [22:18] VelcroMan: run "alsamixer" from the terminal and make sure nothing is muted. [22:18] the screen goes black. [22:18] zhangchipku: I'm sorry. what do you mean? [22:18] Ok, rsty, I dont know what to tell you. [22:18] gnomefreak, Thanks, I'll try that later [22:18] !find easycam [22:18] Package/file easycam does not exist in hardy [22:18] deb http://blognux.free.fr/debian unstable main <--- should I add that to apt line? [22:18] timandtom: Don't bother -- it's just a guide for utorrent in Wine [22:18] timandtom: im reading in more depth [22:18] billlllll No [22:18] hi [22:19] erUSUL: envyng-g ends with this: raise Exception (error) Exception: ('\nEnvyNG ERROR: The following packages cannot be installed: ' ,) [22:19] wait ubuntu doens't supprot easy cam =P [22:19] eh, oh well. [22:19] [TiZ]: no need to remove Rhytmbox if that's your only trouble with it, you can change the behaviour via Nautilus prefs, look for the media tab and check / change the settings [22:19] billlllll Doing that will quite possibly break your system [22:19] corollax, ah xD Well in that case, nevermind :P Everything, other then minimizing to tray, works perfectly for me. Even tetris, if I remember correctly [22:19] corollax: only because its a utorrent website ;) they dont build it for linux [22:19] jack: didn't know X_X [22:19] !webcam [22:19] Instructions for using webcams with Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Webcam - Supported cams: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCameras [22:19] jack i'm following that =P [22:19] gnomefreak: while we're on the subject of torrenting, I'm having some difficulty with ports. [22:20] billlllll Is your camera supported [22:20] my camaera is a logitech camera [22:20] <[TiZ]> glitsj16, thanks. I'll go look for it. [22:20] yo:search in synaptic for the file having the problem,select it then choose: package----force version, choose the correct version [22:20] gnomefreak: For some reason, I can't seem to get download speeds any faster than 15 KiBs [22:20] billlllll But is your model number shown as supported [22:20] <_odin> everything turned black/white in xchat. how can i fix it? [22:20] zhangchipku: ok. I will try that. many thanks! [22:20] gnomefreak: I've tried it with deluge, azureus, AND utorrent. [22:20] ikonia, how toi include this module ? [22:20] -i [22:20] gnomefreak: They ALL have the same problem. [22:21] look in /etc/apache2/modules-availabe and /etc/apache2/modules-enabled [22:21] I have a problem with soldier of fortune when I try and run the game I get error Couldn't run Soldier of Fortune (sof-bin). Is SOF_DATA_PATH set? [22:21] <[TiZ]> Alright, I found it. Thanks. :D [22:21] Jack: wait up I have not a clue, I actually don't even have the CD to isntall camaera I was hoping it could detect driver needed [22:21] corollax: and im assuming you did more testing than on one package? [22:21] Jack: looking for model number on camera [22:21] has anybody ever had the problem that lsdvd claims that it can't read the dvd? [22:21] Hi there, is there any good player for radio from Internet there? [22:21] billlllll If you are following that tutorial.. that is where you start [22:21] [TiZ]: great, those are rather hidden away i agree ;) [22:21] corollax: they will range on time date and how many users are taking what you are pushing [22:21] gnomefreak: on more than one torrent, you mean? [22:22] corollax: torrents you push and pull [22:22] gnomefreak: I've tried this on about ten torrents. [22:22] corollax: no on different packages say different websites maybe be better [22:22] slaw6: banshee seems cool [22:22] gnomefreak: When I check to see if the active port is open, the websites say they're closed. [22:22] corollax: you should beable to adjust the port [22:22] gnomefreak: I'm afraid I don't know how to do that. [22:23] Jack: the ubuntu wiki or help tut? [22:23] gnomefreak: I've tried using firestarter, but I don't think it's helped. [22:23] corollax: cant help you if the website only gives out on 80 since that is all it should [22:23] billlllll what is your model number [22:23] gnomefreak: which site? [22:23] hiho im back i've got some problem's when i want to download any file from my browser i've gotta some error " File /tmp could not be downloaded, becouse unknown error appear" [22:23] corollax: firestarter is a GUI to iptables i could have told you your ports werent it unless you changed your iptable settings [22:23] corollax: any site [22:24] banshee.. not. It depends on mono (!) and depends on lot of stuff. [22:24] ikonia, i haven't userdir in mods-enabled [22:24] corollax: i would say most i cant say all [22:24] gnomefreak: Apparently firestarter isn't functioning properly. Or more likely I'm not using it correctly. [22:24] but ikonia i have it in mods-available [22:24] Kitu: so create the symlink or use the a2enmod command [22:24] erf [22:24] I'm using hardy, is there a way to change the Japanese fonts so they look like they did in older versions? [22:25] corollax: i would best guess #2 answer but i havent played with firestarter in Hardy [22:25] slaw6: if you have the right address, you can listen with vlc [22:25] alright think ig to it [22:25] thanks ikonia i try [22:25] model number: V-UM14 [22:26] corollax: give me a few minutes i have someone talking to me about packages i have ready for archives [22:26] idiot question of the day - if anyone would care to help: using the terminal, can you "reinstall" gnome using apt? :/ [22:26] gnomefreak: No problem. ^,^ [22:27] zhangchipku: I did a search for '2.6.1-1ubuntu10' in synaptic and nothing came up [22:27] billlllll Is your cam in this list https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCamerasLogitech [22:27] ok i can find kppp but no kppp logviewer [22:27] wow! so many people in here!:D [22:27] yo:that's the version number, search for the component [22:27] !who | jimbean [22:27] jimbean: As you can see, this is a large channel.

If it's Windows only, it won't/ [22:35] ikonia, on default ... [22:35] 127.0.0.1 [22:35] ikonia: I am prompted from the update manager to update to '2.6.1-1ubuntu0 to ""10'. should I go and do that? [22:35] not 127.0.1.1 [22:35] koolranch: are you talking about mp3 or software? [22:35] The mp3 player is compatible with linux [22:35] according to the company's website [22:35] yo: as long as your still using the stable repo's I don't see an issue [22:35] ikonia, just witch conf file to modify this ip ?

[22:37] but why* [22:37] Koolranch: An exe file will not work on Ubuntu. [22:37] I see [22:37] FloodBot3, i love you [22:37] could it be that the mp3 player is compatible, but the software itself is windows only compatible? [22:37] or windows and mac os, at least? [22:37] zhangchipku: crazy! it still won't install ffmpeg. and I thought I just installed the lastest libc file [22:38] if the software is windows only, the mp3 isn't compatible [22:38] yo: what did it say? [22:38] well then the software must be linux compatible [22:38] ikonia, i must restart a service or reload hosts conf file ? [22:38] yo, what's the problem?

Google for medibuntu to install it. You'll need to remove ffmpeg first though [22:49] question: I followed all instructions to install flash on my ubuntu. i am sure its installed because i did the about thing in Firefox but still flash stuff isnt working. Any suggestions. [22:49] caralimon, still need help? [22:50] I'm listening [22:50] im trying to connect to my university's wifi and my problem is that it uses the peap protocol with a eap-mschap v2 authentication method, anyone know how to do that in hardy? [22:50] yes [22:50] ok, ta [22:50] hello [22:50] i installed ubuntu via an Windows installer [22:50] zhangchipku: after the two wget commands should I sudo apt-get upgrade? [22:50] hey it worked! [22:50] Pizzaboy192: Is that the best would you say? It looks proprietary [22:50] wubi? [22:50] sudo apt-get purge ffmpeg [22:50] for example? [22:50] yeah, Wubi [22:50] sudo apt-get autoremove ffmpeg --purge [22:51] i have a problem i have tv out, now i am trying to record something on my videoplayer it does not work, i have picture on tv what to check more [22:51] do you need to remove ubuntu? [22:51] i don't understand [22:51] is there an Wubi uninstaller too? [22:51] yo: then, you should recheck medibuntu from synaptic [22:51] will02, i believe wpasupplicant supports eap and chap -- have a look at the wpasupplicant manpage [22:51] yeah, i need to remove Ubuntu [22:51] im stuck [22:51] but i will understand [22:51] Just uninstall it like you would uninstall another program in windows [22:51] jarco: which flash plugin did you install exactly ? [22:51] I believe it's called add/remove [22:51] Caralimon Please be sure to read the faq on what wubi is and how it differs from a reuglar install [22:51] yo: and then reload the repo using synaptic [22:51] or you could just delete the partition =P [22:51] should it be on Add and Remove Programs on my Control Panel? [22:51] yes [22:51] Caralimon: Yes [22:51] zhangchipku: I rechecked it. and clicked reload. [22:51] Kitu, what don't you understand? [22:51] just uninstall it there and it will be gone [22:52] yo: now try ffmpeg [22:52] "sudo apt-get autoremove ffmpeg -purge " gives an error. 'E: Command line option ‘p’ [from -purge] is not known.' [22:52] thank you! you solved my problem [22:52] xenomorph99: --purge [22:52] unop: i have that installed but i have no clue how to configure it [22:52] sorry, that's --purge [22:52] <_saw> how to applay chmod on folder and all its contents ?

[22:52] it's good unop but i don't understand "quand meme" [22:52] <_saw> thanks [22:52] xenomorph99: sudo apt-get remove ffmpeg is ok [22:52] thank you, billgoldberg [22:52] autoremove is better though [22:52] bye [22:53] no prob [22:53] hey pizzaboy [22:53] bye [22:53] * powitsjj waves hi [22:53] 2 secs please [22:53] zhangchipku: you the man! finally got it. much appreciated!

[22:55] haha [22:55] whats the abbriviation for it [22:55] press 'alt+f2' and enter the name [22:55] of the package [22:55] jarco: you could try removing that and afterwards install the version in synaptic called flashplugin-nonfree to see if that improves anything [22:55] it will run [22:55] it did [22:55] it should be in one of the menu's though [22:55] unop, in hosts i have put 127.0.0.1 and it complete like that : 127.0.0.1 kiki.localhost kiki-desktop; and in hostname i have put www.kiki.com and it works but why ... ? [22:55] billgoldberg:is there a more specific room for ubuntu hardware support? [22:55] oh how to remove it? [22:55] billgoldberg: is there a more specific channel for hardware support? [22:56] don't konw, it thing #ubuntu-hardware [22:56] haha way to steal my message pizza [22:56] ok [22:56] ill check [22:56] google for "ubuntu irc rooms" you'll get a list [22:56] !hardware [22:56] For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport - To help debugging and improving hardware detection, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingHardwareDetection [22:56] jarco: see if it is in your synaptic, if so, mark it for removal and apply the changes to get rid of it [22:56] ok [22:56] im glad all my hardware works =] [22:56] Kitu, well, it works - but only just -- ideally /etc/hostname sets your full hostname -- and applications need to translate that hostname to an ip address, so you must have an entry in /etc/hosts for that same hostname for things to work properly [22:57] without warning [22:57] hello all :) [22:57] i alt-f2'd it and it didnt start [22:57] hello [22:57] *** opening room wiki list **** [22:57] OK. The medibuntu howto describes installing libdvdcss and w32codecs. But it seems I still don't have ffmpeg [22:57] Kitu, it doesn't make that much of a difference on a LAN -- but on the internet, you could run into quite a bit of headache if you don't set your hostname up properly [22:57] vapor, open a terminal and enter "sudo packagename" [22:57] * powitsjj smacks pizzaboy [22:57] ok [22:57] !info ffmpeg [22:57] ffmpeg (source: ffmpeg): multimedia player, server and encoder. In component universe, is optional. Version 3:0.cvs20070307-5ubuntu7 (hardy), package size 187 kB, installed size 664 kB [22:57] xeno; after you installed the medibuntu repo, just open synaptic and install ffmpeg again [22:58] vaportrailnew123, Applications>Accessories>Terminal, and you can click-and-drag that icon to the desktop or a panel [22:58] you'll have to remove it first if you didn't before [22:58] billgoldberg, why sudo? it might not need it [22:58] as in sudo apt-get install ffmpeg ? [22:58] cd applications [22:58] jup [22:58] xenomorph99 dont forget to update after a change to the sources list [22:58] Why will it choose the medibuntu one over the Ubuntu repo? [22:58] unop, if i put www.google.com i go to my localhost ? :s [22:58] unop; if it won't run from alt+f2, it might night sudo privilages [22:59] alt+f2 and then gksudo package name will work also [22:59] billgoldberg, err, no, it might be failing to start at alt+f2 for any number of reasons other than sudo -- [22:59] billgoldberg: or it might just be a terminal app that quicts immediately :P [22:59] quits* [22:59] it doesnt say there is? [22:59] i'm going to test :p [22:59] I know [22:59] xchat has less lag than pidgin [22:59] can't hurt to try sudo, can't it? === shevek is now known as Guest58680 [22:59] billgoldberg, it's always best to know for sure why an application fails to start -- sudo can be dangerous, use it sparingly [22:59] yes, it can :P [22:59] but how properly ... ? [22:59] lol [22:59] jarco: any luck yet ? [22:59] billgoldberg, err, actually it can hurt [22:59] no sozz [22:59] have loads of flash installed glitsj16 :) [23:00] jarco: can I pm you, we can try to remove it manually [23:00] unop; it can, but most of the time it won't [23:00] yeah [23:00] mount.nfs: internal error why do i get that message [23:00] billgoldberg: it's still a bad habit [23:00] hey i think i solved my cd problem: is it true that music cds can't be mounted? [23:00] Just installed ffmpeg. "Get: 1 http://packages.medibuntu.org hardy/free ffmpeg 3:0.cvs20070307-5ubuntu7+medibuntu1 [194kB]" [23:00] billgoldberg: one you should get rid of, since it promotes the wrong mindset [23:00] I know, I was just saying that if the program won't start, it might need sudo privilages [23:00] yes glitsj16 [23:00] Still doesn't recognise the xvid option (ffmpeg) [23:00] Because I can mount my data cds but i cant mount music cds. [23:00] billgoldberg, let's say you recommend this now, and it works-- the person now assumes he needs to use sudo all the time -- so the next time, some sends him a script (that deletes X Y and Z)and he tries to invoke it through alt+f2 , he'll resort to sudo -- not good at all [23:01] xeno; try avidemux === ramaye1 is now known as rmxz [23:01] xenomorph99 are you running hardy or gutsy [23:01] Hardy [23:01] unop, I know [23:01] billgoldberg, it might but then again, it might not -- what i am saying is, it is best to be sure and safe than to be _sorry_ later [23:01] xenomorph99 thanks, just checking, saw someone earlier with the wrong repo [23:02] I know unop, I was just saying it could be that it needs to be run a root [23:02] the real problem is that people will never learn what sudo does [23:02] and what it is for [23:02] !gksudo [23:02] what is the command to list the users and groups on a system? [23:02] If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) [23:02] I have no idea what the program was he needed to run [23:02] So, was it the right repo or not ? [23:02] they just blindly run with sudo since it makes some things work [23:02] never heared of it [23:02] I am having this weird repeating message show when bootinig up my desktop it repeats a frozen error message "ata2.00:exception emask 0x0" anyone know what this is? [23:02] billgoldberg, yes, i know what you are saying -- i'm saying it might not have needed to use sudo, it could have failed for any number of reasons [23:02] without understanding what they're doing [23:02] billgoldberg, that's even worse then :) [23:03] :p [23:03] xenomorph99 it says hardy and you said you are running hardy.. so yes. [23:03] also, some things can fail *because* you run them as root [23:03] In synaptic, it says I have ffmpeg installed [23:03] and w32codecs [23:03] xenomorph: about the xvid issue, you have libxvidcore4 installed for xvid support ? [23:04] !hostname [23:04] Use hostname to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts . WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. Alternatively, use the gui at system>administration>networking on the "General" tab [23:04] I installed it, yes. [23:04] xeno, i don't know if it matters but did you install 'non-free-codecs' [23:04] ? [23:04] what's a full hostname ? [23:04] Is there a command to Hibrnate a computer? [23:04] non-free? I went to the medibuntu site, then to the package how-to and did what it said [23:04] Then I installed ffmpeg [23:04] unop, www.kiki.com it's not a full hostname ? [23:05] anyone know how to set up gmail in evolution mail with POP instead of POP3? [23:05] Kitu, it is .. but have you registered that domain? kiki.com [23:05] no but [23:05] Can't install wifi driver. Tried all instructions off the net using ndiswrapper and Windows drivers, but nothing helps. Atheros ar242x on amd64 hardy. Does anyone know a solution? [23:05] Kitu, then, it's best you don't use it :) avoid complications [23:06] if i don't have domain on internet do i must what ? [23:06] if i don't have domain on internet do i must put what ? [23:06] Kitu, use something like kiki.localdomain or kiki.local [23:06] hum ok [23:06] powitsjj: POP instead of POP3 ? you mean IMAP instead of POP3? [23:06] Kitu, something that does not use a top-level domain in it [23:06] Is there a command to Hibernate a computer? [23:06] but i have web domain but it's for know [23:06] to* [23:07] Do I need to install the non-free codecs in synaptic? [23:07] slart...thats what i wanna know [23:07] what would i put in instead of mail.google.com [23:07] ok ok thanks unop [23:07] xeno, yes [23:07] as in 'non-free-codecs' [23:07] or would i put that [23:07] or by using sudo apt-get install non-free-codecs [23:07] powitsjj, i think it is imap.google.com [23:07] !info w32codecs [23:07] Package w32codecs does not exist in hardy [23:08] Still doesn't work [23:08] !w32codecs [23:08] medibuntu is a repository of packages that cannot be included into the Ubuntu distribution for legal reasons - See http://www.medibuntu.org [23:08] unknown codec 'xvid' [23:08] powitsjj, actually no, i just checked - imap.google.com does not exist [23:08] ANYONE!!! where do i go to get help with a wiereless card [23:08] Can i "fake" a floppy/cd drive somehow? I'm deving a simple OS and i want to use a virtual floppy or cd instead of a real if its possible [23:08] powitsjj, mail.google.com should work [23:08] sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras [23:08] kk [23:08] Hi, After upgrading to hardy, my swapfile has stopped working. I tried updating the UUID for the partition in fstab, but it still can't see it. The UUID looks the same as the one listed in /dev/disk/by-uuid/ [23:08] VelcroMan: I don't think there is any difference between a folder, cd, floppy in linux.. I could be wrong though [23:08] what is the command to list the users and groups on a system? [23:08] lol [23:09] still here =] [23:09] I'm trying 'ffmpeg -y -i in.avi -b 768 -s 320x240 -vcodec xvid -ab 128 -acodec aac -ac 2 -ab 64 -f mp4 out.mp4' [23:09] Slart: I need to be able to boot it in Bochs :P [23:09] Hey, I've got a problem [23:09] Toas1, err, not a reliable way to determine a partition's UUID -- try using blk_id or volname [23:09] xeno, install winff (google for it) it's a gui for ffmepg [23:09] Basically outlined here: http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?t=1644 [23:09] it will save you a lot of problems [23:09] Why will that work if the command line doesn't ? [23:09] VelcroMan: ah.. can't bochs boot from an iso or something? [23:09] and is easy to use [23:09] no [23:09] xenomorph99, ffmpeg -y -i in.avi -b 768 -s 320x240 -ab 128 -acodec aac -ac 2 -ab 64 -f mp4 out.mp4 [23:09] unop: I used to have it using the volume ID, but thats what failed in the first place. [23:10] ffmpeg is so awesome [23:10] still on imap though? ive only used pop3 in thunderbird in windows [23:10] unop - and how does that help? [23:10] anyone know how to recover a partition table of a HDD? [23:10] i have a file on my desktop in .tar format wat is the cmd to open and install it in cmd prompt [23:10] Toas1, use the UUID in fstab or wherever, but find out the UUID in a reliable fashion -- e.g. sudo blkid /dev/sda1 [23:10] Terminator14: testdisk might be able to do it [23:10] it will send SMTP [23:10] Ah, I see. I need to go into Windows to get something done? [23:11] xeno, if you installed ffmpeg from the medibuntu repo, ffmpeg should work [23:11] xenomorph99, it does not explicitly specify using xvid as the input codec -- so ffmpeg will try and guess what the codec is [23:11] are you sure you installed it from that repo? [23:11] Terminator14: be sure to backup the drive before you start messing with it though... or read the manual etc carefully.. testdisk can do nasty things if used in the wrong way [23:11] powitsjj, trying to get imap for google to work in thunderbird? [23:11] In Synaptic, I have ffmpeg installed under packages.medibuntu..... [23:12] xenomorph99, try that command, it can't hurt to try it [23:12] In a nutshell, I installed TF2 in Wine and it won't run because it says my hardware doesn't support at least Pixel Shader 1.1. I looked up my GFX card specs and it supports Pixel Shader 1.4. Is this a drivers problem? A wine bug? I'm running 8.04. More info Here: http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?t=1644 [23:12] xeno, do yourself a favor and install winff (google for it) it will work [23:12] jowi... no in evolution [23:12] that command gives a very different UUID [23:12] im just trying to get my mail =P [23:12] idont care how haha [23:12] installed version is 3:0:cvs...blah blah....ubuntu7+medibuntu1 [23:12] Akeru_Forsamee: check the application database.. it might be a setting somewhere.. appdb.winehq.org [23:12] Does that sound like the medibuntu version? [23:12] Toas1, but that is the right UUID -- so you have a stale and possible wrong line in /dev/disk/by-uuid [23:13] xeno; yes [23:13] Toas1, s/line/link/ [23:13] ok what server type for recieving? [23:13] anyone know any good Free P2P clients for ubuntu? Frostwire has a problem with my version of java [23:13] winff is for windows? [23:13] !p2p | matthew__ [23:13] matthew__: Peer-to-peer filesharing clients are available for several networks/protocols, including !BitTorrent, !Gnutella, !eDonkey, !DirectConnect, !SoulSeek - Multi-protocol engines include !MLDonkey and !giFT - See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/P2PFileSharing for general information [23:13] xeno, again, use winff [23:13] unop: how could a wrong uuid get into that dir? [23:13] powitsjj, ah. I have it working in thunderbird. Server name: imap.google.com Port:993 Username: blah.blah@gmail.com Use: SSL - that is all [23:13] Slart: I used AppDB to install Steam, it didn't say anything about it. I'll look up TF2 just in case. Both are Platinum rated though [23:13] alternatives to java? [23:13] xenomorph99, I would try this first. ffmpeg -i in.avi out.mp4 [23:13] powitsjj, you need to enable imap in your gmail account first though [23:14] where can I disable automatic login? [23:14] matthew: google for frostwire or install nicotine from the repos === Saladin is now known as ConvolutedMusing [23:14] ahh ok [23:14] i have a file on my desktop in .tar format wat is the cmd to open and install it in cmd prompt [23:14] adac: in system, administration, login window [23:14] Toas1, errm, it probably was the right link to the right UUID at one point in time and then you formatted the partition it points to - which changes the UUID [23:14] or must I installed jre to run java based programs [23:14] untraceable: tar.. man tar for syntax [23:14] is it possible to use SCSI devices with VirtualBox? [23:14] Hiya, I am trying to compile abr2gbr and keep getting errors. Can anyone help? [23:14] untraceable, tar xvf file.tar [23:14] I tried that. 'Unsupported codec for output stream #0.1' [23:15] Slart: thx! [23:15] 'Stream #0.1: Audio: mp3, 48000 Hz, stereo, 80 kb/s' [23:15] adac: you're welcome [23:15] xeno, try 'avidemux' [23:15] Hang on. I don't understand why, given that ffmpeg should work with this command line, it doesn't [23:15] xenomorph99, ok, specify an output codec like this then. ffmpeg -y -i in.avi -acodec aac -f mp4 out.mp4 [23:15] even though I don't see why ffmpeg shouldn't be able to do it [23:15] still get an error wwhile scanning [23:15] the imap [23:15] seriously, try winff [23:15] So I want to work out why rather than messing about finding out something else won't work, either [23:16] Do you have to do anything to make swapon see your changes to /etc/fstab ? (typing sudo swapon -a) [23:16] Or, does anyone know another way of converting PhotoShop brushes? [23:16] powitsjj, imap.gmail.com doesn't return ping but it is working [23:16] what do i type into synaptic if I want to remove older kernels? [23:16] Toas1, no, as long as you put the correct line in /etc/fstab -- sudo mount -a should be enough [23:16] jowl...hmm? [23:16] shamus: look for packages with linux in the name.. I think they are called linux-image-bla bla bla [23:16] In the Open With->Use custom command edit field, is there a variable that corresponds to the filename passed to it? I need to do something like this: program filename -parameter [23:16] Unknown codec 'aac' [23:17] powitsjj, never mind. it is now. temp glitch perhaps [23:17] Slart, thanks [23:17] whats the easiest way to determine what version of Ubutnu is running on a machine? I don't mean the kernel, but the Ubuntu distro [23:17] xenomorph99, hrrm, not good, see if this works. ffmpeg -i in.avi -f mp4 out.mp4 [23:18] Gizmo_The_Great system > about ubuntu [23:18] xeno, to get thing straight, you are trying to convert a ipod video file to avi using the ffmpeg version from the medibuntu repo? [23:18] 'Unsupported codec for output stream #0.1' [23:18] jowl...so what should i use? [23:18] koshari, oh yeah! Right in front of me. Cheers [23:18] I've done that with the ffmpeg version from the medibuntu repo using the winff gui [23:18] did you try winff? [23:18] oh ill just enable pop [23:18] I'm trying to convert an avi to mp4 for a Sony player , hopefully without having to install ffmpeg sources and building it [23:18] I've tried doing 'program %f -parameter' but that failed to work [23:18] koshari, i don't suppose there's a command line way, just out of interest? [23:18] powitsjj, the same settings as I said above. they work fine (in thunderbird) [23:18] No, I didn't because I think that I'd like ffmpeg working on the command line. Because it should [23:19] Gizmo_The_Great: lsb_release -a [23:19] And it I try sudo apt-get install winff [23:19] im in evolution, not thunderbird [23:19] it doesn't exist [23:19] Gizmo_The_Great for the ekrnel i know there is, dunno bout the dist, you could prolly use apt to find out the package detains [23:19] Gizmo_The_Great: cat /etc/lsb-release [23:19] !gnash [23:19] An open source flash replacement. It is still beta software.

[23:20] Yeah, and if it's a gui, surely it just drives ffmpeg...which won't work from the command line so I don't see why a gui will drive it [23:20] !swfdec [23:20] Sorry, I don't know anything about swfdec [23:20] Slart, macrobad thanks a lot [23:20] . [23:20] Gizmo_The_Great: np [23:20] I'm just saying I got it to work with the instruction I gave you, no need to get upset [23:20] ffmpeg: [23:20] xenomorph99, well, your ffmpeg is missing support for quite a few codecs -- you have to find out why [23:20] Installed: 3:0.cvs20070307-5ubuntu7+medibuntu1 [23:20] Candidate: 3:0.cvs20070307-5ubuntu7+medibuntu1 [23:20] Version table: [23:20] *** 3:0.cvs20070307-5ubuntu7+medibuntu1 0 [23:20] 500 http://packages.medibuntu.org hardy/free Packages [23:20] 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status [23:20] 3:0.cvs20070307-5ubuntu7 0 [23:21] 500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com hardy/universe Packages [23:21] !paste | xenomorph99 [23:21] xenomorph99: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel.

Please PM [23:21] xenomorph99, use the pastebin please [23:21] I'm not upset. I just don't see how that will work [23:21] im trying to edit /etc/resolv.conf but it keep going back to how it was can any body tell me why? [23:21] * powitsjj thanks jowi [23:21] akuma55: it gets overwritten if you use dhcp [23:21] how do i get a second screen to run as independant? [23:21] can anyone tell me what GTK 2.x is? [23:21] can we share cd rom drives from ubuntu over a windows network [23:21] Q: I am typing 'sudo mysql' and get the msg Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) [23:21] ? [23:21] akuma55: or because NetworkManager applet restores it [23:21] akuma55, dhclient overwrites it when your interfaces gets a lease from a DHCP server [23:22] This, you mean? http://paste.ubuntu.com/26313/ [23:22] akuma55: there are some settings somewhere to set what dhcp updates and what it shouldn't touch... can't remember if it was in the dhcp client config or in the resolver config [23:22] is swfdec or gnash stable enough yet for the desktop on 8.04? [23:22] can anyone tell me what GTK 2.x is? [23:22] can i stop that from happening [23:22] chriswr: GTK 2.x is all the buttons and rest window controls that you see. [23:22] yuri_: reasonable [23:22] it's stable sure, if it will work, that's another thing [23:22] im useing ubuntu server [23:22] yuri_: there is a separate password for mysql [23:23] macrobad: ok , thnx [23:23] how can I use Amarok to sincronize videos to my ipod ? [23:23] akuma55: Do you use DHCP or static address? [23:23] Slart: it does not prompt me for the password [23:23] yuri_: check the mysql documentation .. [23:23] chriswr: gtk is the graphical platform upon which many of Linux's applications are built, like Pidgin, GIMP, and so forth.......... [23:23] yuri_: nope.. you have to use a switch [23:23] unop : can you see that pastebin info? [23:23] GTK+ 2.x are libraries (some elements used by other programs) to display buttons, windows and so on (2.x is a version of gtk+) [23:23] ? im a newbie [23:23] <__yy_> yuri_: use the -p flag to make mysql prompt for a password [23:23] can someone send me in the right direction - hardy screen resolutions [23:23] Hiya, I am trying to compile abr2gbr and keep getting errors.

[23:24] anyone know how can I use Amarok to sincronize videos to my ipod ? [23:24] ubuntu mobile? [23:24] akuma55: :) Ok, let me put it the other way. Have you configured the ip address by hand on the server, or did you get it automatically upon connection? [23:24] xenomorph99, that checks to see if you have any conflicts with packages at the moment .. usually installing ffmpeg gives you the capability to use a whole range of codecs which you don't seem to have at the moment [23:24] sure [23:25] Is there any way you can just have a disc that installs a minimal Ubuntu installation with its desktop? [23:25] http://paste.ubuntu.com/26314/ [23:25] !minimal | Viper550 [23:25] Viper550: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD).

[23:25] damn girls [23:25] damn small linux [23:25] garyx: no need to ask that every minute.. wait at least 5 minutes before repeating.. use the time to google or check the ubuntu forums [23:25] and damn gmail [23:26] the normal cd install is small [23:26] it fits on one cd lol [23:26] 600mb [23:26] xenomorph99, sudo aptitude install libavcodec1d libavformat1d libavutil1d libpostproc1d libswscale1d; [23:26] not like everythign else thats liek 2 dvds [23:26] I mean, is there some way to have the netbook remix version for a desktop computer without internet?

Tried all instructions off the net using ndiswrapper and Windows drivers, but nothing helps. Atheros ar242x on amd64 hardy. Does anyone know a solution? [23:27] whats the difference on the notebook one? [23:27] that's stupid. [23:27] xenomorph99, say my name each time you address me, so my client highlights your messages and i know [23:27] Incidentally, winff doesn't work. Same error as if I do it from the command line [23:27] your mom's stupid [23:27] plouffe, try #ubuntuforums-beginners [23:27] trashguy: it's got a different desktop, and its optimized for stuff like the Eee [23:27] lol [23:27] doesn't show up in network.

Can anyone help? [23:27] vaportrailnew123 try system-> preferences-> resolution [23:27] Viper550, what is optimized? [23:27] you can do the same with any linux [23:27] akuma55: Hmm.. since Server comes without GUI by default, I assume you're not using NetworkManager applet, and thus, it's DHCP that rewrites your resolv.conf. "auto"... right, that's DHCP. So, reconfigure your DHCP server, or you'd have to rewrite it after each interface restart. [23:27] k [23:27] xenomorph99, first things first -- get ffmpeg sorted -- winff uses ffmpeg, if ffmpeg is struggling, chances are winff will too [23:27] All my drives have been renamed in a completely confusing way... I'm very lucky that I didn't just format my root drive as swap. mount gives an output like this for all my drives... they have all been cross mapped. /dev/sdb1 on /media/sda1 type fuseblk [23:27] like, its meant for OEM's, and those minmimal Linux laptops [23:28] i dont have 2 monitors..so idk if it will work [23:28] unop : yes, that's what I thought, also [23:28] macrobad: you can reconfigure the DHCP *client* to not overwrite all the info in the resolv.conf [23:28] How do you determine your gateway on a particular eth device? [23:28] appears to be xfce with some new launcher thing [23:28] unop OK, that's installed those items [23:28] Viper550, it is no diff then ay othe rlinux its just preconfigured,, you can achive the same [23:28] wow, a lot of proposed updates [23:28] I guess no one knows? [23:28] xenomorph99, now, can you try your initial ffmpeg command? [23:28] unop, but if the issue is with the commands he is entering, winff could be good for him; either wayn installing winff will take only a few seconds, it's worth a shot [23:28] Is there anywhere else I might find someone who knows?

[23:29] toas, no [23:29] billgoldberg, i just checked with him, ffmpeg does not have all it's capability, it can't encode aac when it should, it can't use xvid, etc -- so something is definitely wrong with ffmpeg [23:29] ConvolutedMusing, pastebin your errors [23:29] on the resolution thingy, it shows an unknown screen, but it wont run it seperately [23:29] xenomorph99, so it is working then? [23:29] Okay, trashguy. === Delvien is now known as dm [23:29] ConvolutedMusing, likely you are missing some deps ^^ [23:29] then remove ffmpeg completely and reinstall [23:30] toas1, upgrade likes to set uuids to fstab [23:30] unop, well, it's encoding ;-) Whether it works or not (plays) is another matter. But thanks for spending the time to sort that out. Much appreciated [23:30] Toas1: I think hardy did something different.. I had to rename my drives when I updated to hardy [23:30] hmm...theyre like streched across both screens right? [23:30] can anyone tell me how to install a gtk 2.x download? [23:30] I purged ffmpeg and reinstalled and supposedly it was from the medibuntu repo but it didn't work [23:30] lol at slaw6 [23:30] now [23:30] *no [23:30] Toas1: set the label of the partition, there are small apps that do that for different filesystems.. when you remount the drive ubuntu will use the label in nautilus and mountpoints [23:30] akuma55: I don't know. It's your network, not mine. [23:30] xeno, well you could try to compile the newest version [23:31] billgoldberg, err no, reinstalling is bad problem resolution :) find out why your app does not work before ditching it for a reinstall [23:31] :) [23:31] unop, do you know what was actually wrong? [23:31] ? [23:31] its still cloned ( even tho i have clone unchecked) and the other moniter is distorted (due to weird resolutioning) [23:31] unop, seriously, a reinstall could fix thing a lot faster. If a reinstall is an option that is [23:31] macrobad, is it in i folder or something [23:31] xenomorph99, yes, libavcodec was held back for some reason -- possibly a package conflict as you use ffmpeg from medibunt [23:31] vaportrailnew123 you have a crt and an lcd? [23:31] Slart: If I fix the mounts to match the new /dev/ names, will anything break? [23:31] billgoldberg, i'm not saying, never do a reinstall --- it should be your very last option [23:31] nope, two lcds [23:31] hmm [23:31] can anyone tell me how to install a gtk 2.x download? maybe what folder to extract it into??? [23:31] unop, I don't agree [23:31] Toas1: it shouldn't [23:32] unop. is there a way of generically flushing conflicts if something similar happens again? [23:32] one widescreen and one regular? [23:32] I'm refering to the ones under /media/ [23:32] Hi [23:32] chriswr, gtk 2 + engine ir theme? [23:32] billgoldberg, then i don't want to hear what you have to say :) serisously [23:32] *or [23:32] haha [23:32] Slart: ok thanks, I'll try it. [23:32] unop, like "sudo apt-get blah -flushthelot' [23:32] :p [23:32] xenomorph99, yes, use aptitude instead of apt-get [23:32] shujah: how do i tell , i just downloaded it from gnome-look.org [23:32] xenomorph99, ... when you encounter conflicts i.e. [23:32] I was wondering if anyone could help me with my Ubuntu 8.04 Server [23:32] xeno, apt is better [23:32] unop, what's the difference, just out of curiosity? [23:32] don't trust that guy [23:32] I can't get the network working on it [23:33] unop: any special reason for using aptitude instead of apt-get? [23:33] What is the easiest way to add higher screen resolutions than 800x600? === DarkAudi1 is now known as DarkAudit [23:33] xeno, not that much [23:33] unop: or it's still the old "it handles dependencies better" ? [23:33] gg...cya [23:33] chriswr, menu > system > preferences > appearance [drag and drop the zip file here] [23:33] billgoldberg, well, they fixed my problem so I'm more inclined to trust their opinion ;-) [23:33] slart, that got fixed [23:33] xenomorph99, aptitude has a better dependency resolution algorithm... so it sometimes finds a better path to a resolution than apt-get will [23:33] Slart, exactly that [23:33] is there a live cd of ubuntu that uses 2.6.24-19-generic? [23:33] where can i find info about my usb devices in ubuntu? i need details, in particular i need to know if my pendrive is a atapi device [23:33] im new to this...is there an exit command? [23:33] trashguy: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/26316/ <-- There are the errors. [23:33] billgoldberg: yes.. I know.. that's why I was asking [23:33] shujah: allright , thanx a lot [23:34] np [23:34] anyone? [23:34] there isn't much use for a server when it has no networking. [23:34] I'll just shut up then [23:34] where can i find info about my usb devices in ubuntu? i need details, in particular i need to know if my pendrive is a atapi device [23:34] http://blog.karppinen.fi/2008/07/apple-just-gave-out-my-apple-i.html [23:34] akuma55: Are you still here? [23:34] kl [23:34] haha [23:34] unop: read this ? http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/aptitude [23:34] macrobad, yeah [23:34] ConvolutedMusing, there is no make file? [23:34] mirko_: lsusb, or lshw [23:34] apple....noobsauce [23:35] I'll try this winff thing out after just to make sure it works properly, too. Presumably, mp4 for an ipod will work on a sony player ? [23:35] powitsjj: yes "shutdown" should work [23:35] anyone willing to help me add higher screen resolutions in Hardy? [23:35] macrobad: hi! what's up? I did manage to fix it after all. It turned out that the switch has really weird problems :/ [23:35] xeno, depends, read the manual [23:35] trashguy: Yes, there is, in the same folder. But, to be honest, I am a complete n00b at this whole compiling thing [23:35] is there a live cd of ubuntu that uses 2.6.24-19-generic? [23:35] The manual doesn't cover linux. it's the spawn of satan [23:35] deminished: no [23:35] Slart, thanks but no thanks :) [23:35] ok thanks [23:35] deminished, search for an old 8.04 torrent and don't update the kernel [23:35] Only Windows and MacOS exist [23:36] Didn't you know? ;-) [23:36] please help [23:36] deminished: no, but from live cd you can use synaptic to get that [23:36] ConvolutedMusing, okay is there a configure script? [23:36] coolasjon, menu > system > preferences > screen resolution [23:36] unop: no worries.. it's a free.. channel =) [23:36] glitsj, sure there is [23:36] Within what, trashguy? [23:36] akuma55: try 'sudo tcpdump -i eth0 -p udp port 53', substituting eth0 with your card and restart the interface (or all the networking). You should see the conversation between you machine and DHCP server, thus, the IP of the DHCP. [23:36] glitsj16: if i do that i will be installing to harddisk no longer a live cd right ? [23:36] I want to add higher resolutions [23:36] hmm cool [23:36] unop, still there? [23:36] ConvolutedMusing, just type make [23:36] billgoldberg: why would an 8.04 cd help me ? [23:36] billgoldberg: a live cd with 2.6.24-19 ? do you have a link ? didn't know that [23:36] xenomorph99, yes [23:37] meh? [23:37] shade2: Hey! I'm glad that you managed. So, what was wrong with the switch? [23:37] which is the best blog site? [23:37] deminished: correct [23:37] Slart, what matter is aptitude seems to have got the problem sorted, apt-get didn't :) [23:37] !best | gilan [23:37] gilan: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose, depending on your preferences, features you require, and other factors. Do NOT take polls in the channel. If you insist on getting people's opinions, ask BestBot in #ubuntu-bots. [23:37] The guy was asking for an ubuntu version without the xx-19 kernel? [23:37] unop, synaptic is now suggesting that I can install 7 updates. Is this going to screw ffmpeg up if I go ahead with it? Am I now trapped in some catch 22? [23:37] hardy started off with 16 or 17 [23:37] macrobad, ok [23:37] an old torrent would o [23:37] do [23:37] glitsj16: i want to avoid that i have debian and before passing the point of no return i want to be sure this wins [23:37] billgoldberg: he wants the livecd itself to be using that kernel, which isn't possible [23:37] billgoldberg, you can install any kernel y liek though [23:37] unop, those updates include amarok etc [23:37] anybody? [23:38] Ah, that seems to have worked, trashguy [23:38] Slart, and throw me something from an official ubuntu source and i will tend to have more trust in the information [23:38] billgoldberg: but why would an older version have a newer kernel ? [23:38] I though he needed the old version [23:38] I misread the OP [23:38] cut me some slack gusy [23:38] damn [23:38] billgoldberg: ok so no cds but i can install and update hmm :/ [23:38] ConvolutedMusing, yea if there is a make file you genereally use make, the make file automates the compiling [23:39] xenomorph99, hmm, i assume it is safe to upgrade those packages -- but if ffmpeg is to be changed, removed, etc you will be warned and asked what to do [23:39] deminished: i understand, there is a way to burn your own live cd though, check http://uck.sourceforge.net/ [23:39] unop: I had a link to the forums before.. can't find it again though.. but I think it basically said that the ubuntu people fixed the problems in apt-get so they should now be equal when it comes to dependencies etc [23:39] billgoldberg: looks like i came in at the right time [23:39] :/ [23:39] :] [23:39] haha [23:39] Ah, okay. Thanks for the heads up. Thanks trashguy [23:39] unop, ok, thanks [23:39] ConvolutedMusing, np [23:39] Slart, the forums are not authoritative enough [23:39] Or, presumably, I can just get rid of the medibuntu repo now that ffmpeg works [23:39] glitsj16: are there any user made live cds available there like non official stuff ? [23:39] unop: I think the aptitude still is better than apt on debian and the rest.. [23:40] This mobile version of Ubuntu is pretty cool [23:40] deminished: no it's an app to customize your own from the regular live cd [23:40] macrobad: I'm not really sure. I had tried once to change the cable to a different port, but that didn't fix anything, and I could still receive promiscuous traffic, so I didn't think that was the problem. Well, later I swapped it's cable with one from one of my vista boxes, and it worked. Strangely, when the internet downstream cable was plugged into port 2, only ports 1 and 3 (out of 8) could use the network. Later I moved the main netw [23:40] my video playback stops after 3-10sec, anyone here know a solution? [23:40] trashguy, can you download that, I thought it was for manufacturers only? [23:40] is it possible to view comments in pdfs with evince? I got feedback in my document, but evince only shows speech bubbles, but no content [23:40] glitsj16: ok cool thanks [23:40] Dedicated, using compiz? [23:40] i dind't spawn anything, xenomorph99 [23:40] didn't* [23:40] Slart, well, it is on ubuntu too -- i've seen numerous occasions where it fares much better than apt-get -- even on hardy, especially when you have enabled third party repos .. you might not believe me and say it "works only for me" -- but i would rather trust my assumptions about it [23:41] I think I just heard a drum roll and cymbal crash as that joke appeared ;-) [23:41] lol [23:41] de-dum-de-dum-tssssssh [23:41] :-) [23:41] whats the best program to use to convert a djvu doc to a pdf ? [23:41] xenomorph99, keep medibuntu enabled, it shouldn't cause any problems [23:42] Shujah: yes [23:42] shade2: Indeed, weird! Especially, given that you have an unmanaged switch... But hey, I've repeated all the basic troubshooting commands while trying to help you! :) [23:42] Thanks all... The problem was that the upgrade has renamed my /dev/hda drives as /dev/sda. Adjusting for that has fixed it. I now has swapfile! [23:42] I just got a GTX260, put it in my box and booted up ubuntu.... but it says that it is running in low graphics mode and i cant do anything [23:42] billgoldberg, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MobileAndEmbedded [23:42] unop: I'm not going to argue with you.. you do exactly as you please.. I was just wondering why you prefered aptitude over apt.. [23:42] This Linux will never catch on. OK, thanks for all your help [23:42] tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode [23:42] listening on eth0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 96 bytes [23:42] so does anyone have any idea as to how i can get my second screen to not clone? [23:42] Dedicated, have you turned off extra effects and checked [23:42] Toas1: use UUIDs in your fstab, and you won't have that problem in the future [23:42] And yeah, that was a joke ;-) [23:42] hey all :) I'm wondering if anyone knows of a problem with VirtualBox, it keeps giving me an error that says I don't have the right kernel even though I do [23:42] macrobad, you see it [23:43] vaportrailnew123, google ubuntu dual head [23:43] ver irc.powers.cl [23:43] Shujah: just did it, same result without compiz [23:43] Slart, well, i'll say this, i believe ubuntu has been improving apt-get recently -- i know that for a fact, but i am not convinced those improvements have brought apt-get on par with aptitude [23:43] ubunubi: I moved away from UUIDs in the past because they seem to change all on there own. [23:43] akuma55: Only these tow lines? [23:43] gaming, that error seems familiar, but I forgot what all the fuss was about [23:43] PS: omg linux is orgasmicly awsome! swapped my ubuntu-hd into a dif laptop and it worked completely [23:43] Dedicated, using which video layer? [23:43] install the non-OSE version from the website [23:43] it worked for me yesterday [23:43] or if you dont liek google use http://www.blackle.com/ [23:43] Toas1, they only change if you format the volumes they represent, otherwise they remain fixed for life [23:43] yeah [23:43] billgoldberg: Yes I read around on the forums but it seemed no one really got a resolve. :-/ [23:44] Toas1: that should be impossible unless you reformat those partitions regularly. UUID is written when the filesystem is put on the partition and shouldn't change unless a new filesystem is generated. that whole point of uuids is to prevent them from randomly changing :P [23:44] Gaming4JC, kqemu is better ^^ [23:44] Shujah: xine, totem (on xine i think) and smplayer [23:44] macrobad, is there suppose to be more [23:44] unop: Theoreticly yes, but for some reason my swapfile did that to be a couple of times. [23:44] I can't install mysql-server anymore [23:44] fresh linux convert here, can anybody quickly run me through the step to get ubuntu on a bootcamp partition (leapord)? [23:44] are there problems? [23:44] I'll try uuids again. [23:45] Dedicated, try vlc just for checking purpose, if it works ok on vlc then its a codec problem [23:45] known problems? [23:45] trashguy: I have qemu, but never could get kqemu to work. It won't start on my computer even when compiled. [23:45] The whole thing is compiled right now actually [23:45] firefox 3 just crashed on me with no flash! :-( disappointing [23:45] it just won't boot... :-/ [23:45] Toas1, have you been moving your swap partitions around? enabling it, disabling it, changing the swap file from one partition to another, etc [23:45] I managed to connect to my router yesterday, and use it to connect to my pppoe internet service. today, it stopped working. what do I do? I can't connect to my router any more. pppoe wasn't running on Ubuntu, so that wasn't in the way. I even pulled out the 2nd network card in case there was any confusion. nadda. [23:45] Toas1: i've seen similar stories on the forums about swap partitions (_only_) getting new UUIDs..but I've never seen it happen [23:45] unop, just out of curiosity, do aptitude and apt use the same "database". e.g. now that I've used aptitude, does it mean that apt doesn't know what went on so things will be screwed? [23:45] akuma55: Uh, my bad.. I've confused DHCP port numbers with DNS. Hold on. [23:45] xenomorph99, apt-get and aptitude are different front-ends to the same package manager i.e. APT [23:45] macrobad: that could lead to some interesting scenarios haha [23:45] Can't install wifi driver. Tried all instructions off the net using ndiswrapper and Windows drivers, but nothing helps. Atheros ar242x on amd64 hardy. Does anyone know a solution? [23:46] macrobad, ok [23:46] trashguy: how do I start kqemu once it is compiled? [23:46] unop, that answers that question then [23:46] It was a long time ago that it happened. I can't remember exactly how, I just remember seeing that using a path was the fix, and it seemed to work. [23:46] unop, and synaptic is a gui for APT, presumably? [23:46] anyway, thanks again, bye! [23:46] Gaming4JC, why not install form package? [23:46] hi [23:46] xenomorph99, aptitude does some things slightly different, some things better, doesn't do somethings, etc -- i'd say stick with apt-get unless you are running into trouble with the other tools .. yes, synaptic included [23:46] re [23:47] i need help [23:47] hi doryian [23:47] go ahead [23:47] trashguy: There's a compiled package of kqemu? O_o (Where?!) [23:47] xenomorph99, yes synAPTic :) [23:47] hey what skills do I need to become a MOTU or any other type of delevoper for Ubuntu [23:47] I looked all over for it [23:47] what do i have to install in ubuntu in order to listen mp3 files? === sam42 is now known as freenodeuser [23:47] ok [23:47] unop, ;) you know how it kept some files back? is there a reason for that? [23:47] I'll give a link to my blog to install all the codecs you'll ever need [23:48] Gaming4JC, im prettysure the qemu package autoinstall kqemu [23:48] Shujah: as expected it runs with vlc [23:48] give me a second [23:48] or it would run like hell [23:48] unop, just conflicts? cos I would have expected it to say there was a conflict [23:48] oh thank you [23:48] !mp3 | doryian [23:48] doryian: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats [23:48] akuma55: 'sudo tcpdump -i eth0 -n port 67 or port 68' should do the work [23:48] dorian: http://linuxowns.wordpress.com/2008/06/23/install-audio-and-video-codecs-in-ubuntu/ [23:48] xenomorph99, well, i only know from experience that those packages kept-back were integral to ffmpeg .. which is why i asked you to use aptitude to install them [23:48] dang i want a little tablet pc to install this mobile version on [23:48] yes [23:48] trashguy: I don't think so I checked on mine and it doesn't start. kvm said it was unsupported as well [23:48] :-/ [23:48] just follow instructions and you'll be able to play everything [23:48] ubunubi: Hehe, indeed! :) [23:48] unop, OK. ta. I'll see how it goes [23:48] xenomorph99, you could have found out why those packages were held back -- using aptitude why-not package_name [23:49] let me know if it worked [23:49] how do i check what video card i have? [23:49] xenomorph99, obviously, that won't work now since they were installed [23:49] i feel so noob @ ubuntu lol [23:49] one more time just to make sure someone sees it [23:49] http://blog.karppinen.fi/2008/07/apple-just-gave-out-my-apple-i.html [23:49] Gaming4JC, if kqemu wasnt running it would be dog slow [23:49] unop, yep but that's useful to know. Thanks [23:49] macrobad, you see my message [23:49] Dedicated, dude if you google for ubuntu video codecs you will find lots of extensive guides, so I don't think you'll have any problem just download the codecs, beware though most are non-free [23:49] trashguy: It is. [23:49] nikonadictk: Knowing C, C++ for high level programming; CShell, Bash, Bourne, and Korn scripting is always good too. [23:50] akuma55: yep [23:50] or just learn perl :) [23:50] Gaming4JC, dunnow hhat to say it works on mine :/ [23:50] how can I find out all the possible problems I could have in connecting to my router? I don't know what could be wrong. [23:51] Shujah: it does play, just for only 2-10secs, so the codecs are there. [23:51] C is lowe level programming ^^ [23:51] ^^ === hiptobecubic^ is now known as hiptobecubic [23:51] Dedicated, umm so you have libdvdcss2 & w32 codecs a;ready installed? [23:51] so, how do i chek what video card i have [23:52] vaportrailnew123: lspci might give you some clue [23:52] Can someone help me force mod_rewrite to SSL? I followed the directions here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/forum/server/apache2/SSL#Mod%20rewrite but nothing seems to work [23:52] Hi I need help getting the scroll zone on the mouse pad of my HP laptop to work [23:52] Shujah: of course. i just started xine in verbose mode and there is nothing special [23:52] trashguy: Well, strictly speaking, it's high-level with a lot of low-level capabilities. [23:53] I can't remember what I did to connect to my router. I thought it was just disabling pppoe service... [23:53] guiri: that page mentions on the first line that there's an updated version at https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/httpd.html#https-configuration .. did you try that one already ? [23:53] High bobertdos c and c++ are low level apposed to like python, ruby etc [23:53] trashguy: do you know a command to launch kqemu? My compiled version is located in /dev/kqemu [23:53] but [23:54] won't boot as I said earlier... [23:54] vive python! [23:54] Gaming4JC, its qemu [23:54] Dedicated, gstreamer plugins ? good, bad & ugly? [23:54] Gaming4JC, kqemu is just a kernel mod [23:54] trashguy: Well yes, when you compare it to those, I suppose you could say that. [23:54] Im using Ubuntu studio if thats a clue. I know it worked under plain hardy [23:54] trashguy: qemu is running slowwwwww, but it works. I'm just trying to get the acceleration module kqemu. [23:54] onlything lower then c is ASM and machine code ^^ [23:54] how do I learn the regular ruitines that the MOTU do so I can try to learn on how to become a contributor [23:54] glitsj16: looking at it now. ty [23:55] nael, try installing 'gsynaptics' [23:55] Gaming4JC, what machien are u on and how much memory are you assigning t [23:55] Shujah: all of them [23:55] rofl, my BIOS knows how to use 2 screens independantly but my operating system does not >< [23:55] nael, also, does it not work at all, or does it just stop working sometimes? [23:55] does anyone know why i get 0% signal and no lock for myth Tv even though all my Tuner drivers are loaded? [23:55] nikonadictk: Maybe poke around in #ubuntu-motu and ask questions [23:55] Dedicated: dude you must be using xine at the backend not gstreamer, you cant have both at the same time [23:55] THE MOUSE WORKS FINE EXCEPT FOR SCROLLING [23:55] trashguy: Ubuntu Hardy 8.04 2GHz Proccessor AMD 64, 2GB Memory. I have given qemu 1GB emulated memory [23:55] trashguy: transistors and microcircuitry are lower than any of that [23:55] sorry caps [23:56] victor: http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/IRC [23:56] you'll find better support there [23:56] sn9_, transitors dont do any sort of computing, and pics and microcontrollers usally use ASM [23:56] trashguy: what do you think interprets the machine code? [23:57] Shujah: i just tried it with kaffein-gstreamer and there is the same problem [23:57] Having some problems connecting to a wireless network. Network manager isn't reading the network, following the sticky gave me this: http://pastebin.com/d3d15265d and the little light for the wireless card doesn't even come on. I'm on a Compaq laptop, don't know the model but it's a Presario V2000 series. Any help? [23:57] trashguy: When you put it that way, I suppose you could say C is probably the lowest "high level language" out there. I'll give you that :D [23:57] sn9_, you can operate logic gates with out any code [23:57] trashguy: yes, which is why they are lower [23:57] dre, I would suggest ndiswrapper, but apperantly, that's not a good idea [23:58] sn9_, but were talkign about programming languages [23:58] ps; i didn't read the link [23:58] trashguy: it's all relative [23:58] billdolgberg: Read the link then. [23:58] Deicated: try this in terminal sudo update-alternatives --config totem [23:58] ndis is pestilence [23:58] trashguy: Of course, you know why C is the way it is, right? [23:58] please debate programming languages and low level hardware in the off-topic channel [23:58] Dedicated, what are the options? [23:58] ubunubi: sorry [23:58] ubunubi: Yes, sorry [23:58] billgoldberg: Sorry, typed your name wrong. Please read the paste. [23:59] bobertdos, because mos other language interpreters are written in c [23:59] just a brief moment of geekdom on our part :D [23:59] I need to install this mobile editon on something
