| Reformer81 | Could someone point me in the right direction to get my keyboard working properly? It's a fairly regular Microsoft Wireless Desktop 4000. The only issues I'm really having with it is that only the F1 key works. I can't use any of the other function keys (Alt-F2, Ctrl-Alt-F3, etc)... | 00:11 |
| Pelo | jcovert, if you can put that command directly in selenium that might be better but we have gone beyond my level of skill at this point ( actualy we passed it the moment you talked about selenium) | 00:12 |

| Pelo | Reformer81, count the keys on the keyb and make sure you selected the correct keyboard model in the keyboard dialog thingy | 00:15 |
| Pelo | Reformer81, or flip the keyb over and read the label at the back | 00:15 |
| Reformer81 | Pelo: Well, this has a lot of extra "multimedia" keys.... My specific model wasn't available in the keyboard dialog "thingy" I don't think :) | 00:15 |
| choudeshell | crimsun, anything jumping out at you? | 00:15 |
| Pelo | ForzaPalermo, meta ? you mean super ? the window key is usualy it but i scratched off the window logo on mine | 00:15 |

| choudeshell | crimsun, how do I switch it? | 00:17 |
| FlipFalcon | why is it having this problem it goes into root fine | 00:17 |
| crimsun | choudeshell: use the mixer applet to unmute it, or use alsamixer, or use amixer, or use aumix, or ... | 00:17 |
| Pelo | FlipFalcon, is this your computer do you have administrator priviledge on it ? | 00:18 |

| phillip | pelo and backenfutter I just dont get why system sounds work but if I try to play ultimedia it doesn't | 00:35 |
| FlipFalcon | like you said option "1280x1024""1024x768""800x600" how do i save the file now?? | 00:35 |
| * backenfutter is conform with pelo, but thinks he doesn't know how many icq windows I have active atm ;) | 00:35 | |
| Pelo | gregthe1, , PAL is a european standard for dvds, It shouldn't matter in a computer, if your file is on a dvd , and is a dvd ( ei .VOB) , you might need to in stall dvd support in ubuntu, but if it's a avi file or a mpg I don'T think this should be an issue, have you tried watching hte file already ? | 00:35 |
| Pelo | phillip, must how the sound gets directed throught your system, review the sound trouble shooter guide , I gave you earlier | 00:36 |
| backenfutter | phillip: the technicla problem is, that linux isn't mixing the outgoing sounds... that's all I can say bout that... google ubuntu soundmixing | 00:36 |
| gregthe1 | It's an AVI file. I'm downloading it now. He said the voices are sped up / high pitched from the conversion | 00:36 |

| Adun | yeah but the problem is that the screen got unrecognised too now because | 00:40 |
| kitche | Random_life: it has flash decompilers though I found out | 00:40 |
| Pelo | Adun, nvidia settings should recognise the screen and make the appropriate entry in xorg.conf | 00:41 |
| Adun | when installing the driver it configured the etc/X11/x..._.conf | 00:41 |
| Adun | kk | 00:41 |

| sanyynn | Anyone knows why does the synaptic touchpad freezing the mouse always? :S | 01:08 |
| SubOne | I have an issue with my clock. I have an LED clock on the outside of my laptop that gets its time based on the BIOS. I currently have the BIOS set correctly and by extension the LED clock is correct. However, `date` shows the correct time but `/sbin/hwclock` returns the incorrect time and therefor not the actual BIOS time (BIOS != hwclock?). The gnome panel clock says the time specified by hwclock and yet in all of this confusion NTP is | 01:08 |
| ejer | lazertek_: you vould use vnc | 01:08 |
| lazertek_ | ejer: but that won't let me open a x aplication on the remote computer | 01:08 |
| maco | crimsun: umm | 01:08 |
| * maco runs away | 01:08 | |
| lazertek_ | ejer: yes but i was wondering how i could do that using ssh | 01:08 |
| MrKennie | lazertek_: you need to enable Xforwarding | 01:09 |
| Sp0tter | Has anyone run Ubuntu desktop from an SD card on a laptop? | 01:09 |
| ejer | lazertek_: x11vnc will let you see remote screen locally, you run it through ssh session, then connect to vnc server | 01:09 |
| Kane1 | i used the cmd line to open a port but transmission says its closed, any ideas? | 01:09 |
| lazertek_ | ejer: it can do it in mac so i suppose in ubuntu that would be possible too | 01:09 |

| Led-Zeppelin | o wow | 01:09 |
| lazertek_ | ejer: so if i type in rhythmbox for example it will open a rhythmbox in the remote computer? | 01:09 |
| lazertek_ | ejer cuz i think it opened it on the one i was ssh-ing from | 01:10 |
| ejer | lazertek_: yes, to open it on remote you need to control remote X session with x11vnc for example, or export the local display then open it | 01:10 |
| Kane1 | i used the cmd line to open a port but transmission says its closed, any ideas? | 01:10 |
| maco | crimsun: restarted firefox. tried again. still fail. | 01:11 |
| rblst | anyone has experience with VirtualBox bridging? | 01:11 |
| ejer | Kane1: you need to do it on your router as well if you have one | 01:11 |
| lazertek_ | ejer: but how about opening it through the command line... | 01:11 |
| Kane1 | ejer, hmm how do i do that | 01:11 |
| lazertek_ | ejer: because sometimes when i do it through the internet transfering the whole screen takes too long | 01:11 |
| ejer | lazertek_: yes, you can export display to be localhost then open rhythmbox | 01:11 |
| crimsun | maco: perhaps asac has an idea in #ubuntu-mozillateam. I'm not convinced it's a FF issue. | 01:12 |
| ejer | lazertek_: you can either control whole screen with vnc or you can open the program locally with ssh -X | 01:12 |

| Stormx2 | (sorry, didn't mean to linebreak) | 01:29 |
| SubOne | Ok, so I set it to "UTC=no" and now hwclock and date and the LED clock all show the correect time. However now the gnomepanel time is incorrect by +6 hours... | 01:29 |
| weirdbro | his friend told him to fix it with ubuntu | 01:29 |
| mateo0802 | okay | 01:29 |

| Nillerz | Hey, #gentoo told me to come over here | 01:30 |
| w0ls0n | ejer oops :-P | 01:30 |
| ejer | w0ls0n: too much for here, try the aforementioned chans | 01:30 |
| SubOne | ejer: so everything is set right but the gnome-panel, what do you suggest? | 01:30 |
| ejer | SubOne: adjust timezone in gnome now | 01:30 |
| Nillerz | If it's not terribly inconvenient, I'd like to ask a question or two | 01:30 |
| Pici | Just ask ;) | 01:31 |
| SubOne | So I should set it to something other than American/Denver? | 01:31 |
| Nillerz | Okay, I want to install a form of linux with a desktop environment. | 01:31 |
| * FlipFalcon hopes this works | 01:31 | |
| ejer | SubOne: just a suggestion... maybe it is elsewhere the issue, unless of course that is not the right timezone ;) | 01:31 |
| Stormx2 | Nillerz, how about ubuntu? :O | 01:31 |
| Nillerz | I want it to not take 36 hours like the gentoo folk said their OS would | 01:31 |
| SubOne | ejer: well NTP is also enabled... | 01:31 |
| Stormx2 | I wouldn't install gentoo as your first linux os :) | 01:31 |

| jisatsu | any idea why my hdd is showing as 100% full when it's not? | 01:32 |
| weirdbro | I partitioned and installed in 30-45 minutes | 01:32 |
| SubOne | oddly... when i go into time settings the time is set correctly, but not the time displayed on the panel... | 01:32 |
| Nillerz | That's good, but another problem, I downloaded and burned ubuntu twice, neither time worked right | 01:32 |
| Stormx2 | It's not even involving. You just enter in the details and let it run. | 01:32 |
| Stormx2 | Nillerz: Oh? What was the problem? | 01:32 |
| ejer | subone, adjust it to be correct? | 01:32 |
| SubOne | ejer... but it is correct | 01:33 |
| ejer | ah | 01:33 |
| Nillerz | The first CD got to the orange bouncing box, then the orange stretching box, then it said FAIL in red letters uptop | 01:33 |
| ejer | then we are done? | 01:33 |
| SubOne | ejer: yet incorrect. | 01:33 |
| ejer | heh | 01:33 |
| SubOne | ejer: everything on the system now shows the correct time except what is shown on the panel | 01:33 |
| Nillerz | the second CD froze after choosing an option from the main splash | 01:34 |
| weirdbro | Nillerz: what hardware do you have, what file did you burn? | 01:34 |
| === srdjan is now known as batasrki | ||
| Nillerz | I have a Compaq Presario 1.8 ghz celeron with 380 mb ram, intel motherboard, 40 gig hard drive, | 01:34 |
| puritycontrol | nillerz you can get them to ship you a cd at https://shipit.ubuntu.com/ | 01:35 |
| weirdbro | Thats not likely the problem, puritycontrol | 01:36 |
| weirdbro | unless his burner can't burn a disk that isn't corrupt | 01:36 |
| puritycontrol | then you know its not an issue with cd burning | 01:36 |
| Nillerz | I'd rather not bother them like that, I mean, there's no guarantee I'll keep using it | 01:36 |

| FlipFalcon | whats the basic wifi app for linux to connect and scan wifi connections | 01:36 |
| weirdbro | Nillerz, whats the name of the .iso file you burned? | 01:36 |
| FlipFalcon | any peeps wanna LMK | 01:37 |
| SubOne | ejer: yes but hwclock, date, the led, and even gnome time and date settings dialog shows the correct time... only the clock shown on the panel itself it +6 hours... | 01:37 |
| w0ls0n | whats LMK? | 01:37 |
| FlipFalcon | let me know | 01:37 |
| ejer | SubOne: meaning timezone in gnome is wrong/utc just like last problem | 01:38 |

| glitsj16 | NemesisD: that is possible, take a look at http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/PerfectSetup on how to proceed with specific apps | 02:23 |
| NemesisD | ejer, in this situation it was 2 instances of mplayer | 02:23 |
| Sp0tter | cl0s_, I was thinking a better option might be to use virtualbox, and store the VM on the flash card | 02:23 |

| glitsj16 | NemesisD: okay, that leaves restarting your pulseaudio daemon .. is that still running ? check via 'pidof pulseaudio', if it returns a number it is, so you will need to killall pulseaudio first in that case | 02:32 |

| kr00l | I don't mind KDE though i just don't like that they put k in front of everything | 02:35 |
| ejer | i use programs from both kde and gnome | 02:35 |
| histo | Do I just make oldconfig then make modules ? in /usr/src/linux? I'm currently booted in .18 kernel but need to recreate the modules for .19 I borked those up. | 02:35 |
| cdj26 | to install kde4 kubuntu it is apt-get install kubuntu-kde4-desktop | 02:35 |

| nickrud | songq deceptive :) Your icy sword of sarcasm was nice :) | 02:35 |
| cdj26 | hey, im trying to change the location of Documents and such so that when i click them in nautilus the open the folders i specify, and the same for default save and open locations | 02:35 |

| cdj26 | and KDE a K | 02:35 |
| kr00l | I wanted to try the new kde 4.1, looks nice | 02:35 |
| cdj26 | it sucks | 02:35 |
| cdj26 | many many bugs | 02:35 |
| planet_x | nickrud: ok i can do this using the manual partition, so I just set one drive to ext3 and then format it with root? should that be okay or does ubuntu need more for swapping and stuff | 02:36 |

| rpj8 | histo: You'll need to install the modules that you installed by yourself again under your new kernel | 02:36 |
| BobPenguin | thanks a lot glitsj16 | 02:36 |
| cdj26 | in kde 4 you cant change the size of the panel! | 02:36 |
| nickrud | planet_x I was pretty generic there. I made 4: ntfs for windows, 12gb for ubuntu / , 2.1gb swap (I have 2g mem, and hibernate) and used the rest for /home | 02:36 |

| histo | rpj8: the default ones that come with ubuntu. | 02:37 |

| cdj26 | how do i access this through pidgin | 02:38 |
| cl0s_ | kr00l: its all up to what you like.. to me kde offers too many unused options and buttons in their main interface while Gnome is cleaner and only displays the most used items and assumes settings for everything else (more user friendly), but is a little more of a pain if u want to break that.. | 02:38 |

| Devourer | ejer, do I have to restart? | 02:38 |
| cl0s_ | notice not KDE or Gnome spec but the applications that are tailored for each.. | 02:38 |
| ejer | moreau: try VLC and maybe another file to be sure | 02:38 |
| histo | rpj8: No they are in /lib/modules/uname-r | 02:38 |
| rpj8 | histo: So recompile and see if anythign breaks :) | 02:38 |
| nickrud | moreau are you sure it's an mp4? try file <mp4file> in a terminal | 02:38 |

| histo | rpj8: I know that. | 02:39 |
| d33d | I shutdown my pc (forced) Windows machine, my external HDD is marked as being "in use" with NTFS. I need to force that off with a mount option...i forget it... | 02:39 |

| tico | hello i'm trying to do a local instalation of joomla in ubuntu but i dont know where is the localhost directory | 02:39 |

| cl0s_ | cdj26: just enter your nick leave everything else the same should work.. | 02:40 |
| cl0s_ | no pw.. atleast for me.. | 02:40 |
| cdj26 | then what do i do | 02:40 |
| rpj8 | histo: You want to install OLD modules in a new kernel environment? | 02:40 |
| nickrud | cdj26 you should try xchat (not xchat-gnome) for irc, works better over all | 02:40 |
| nks_ | I did - still no working - | 02:40 |
| d33d | nickrud so like sudo mount -o force /dev/sdb1 | 02:40 |
| cl0s_ | Buddies > Join A Chat | 02:40 |

| cl0s_ | then enter the channel.. #ubuntu .. include the # | 02:40 |
| rpj8 | histo: I suppose you could download the source for the modules and compile them with flags for your current kernel. I guess.... I don't really know... I don't see why you'd want to really do that | 02:40 |
| nks_ | I've also searched google to no success ! | 02:40 |
| nickrud | d33d yes. But me, I'd reboot into windows and let windows deal with ntfs errors. I'm very conservative with my data | 02:40 |
| ejer | chezerian: try another disc | 02:40 |
| moreau | file <file> returned: setgid ISO Media, MPEG v4 system, version 1 | 02:41 |

| d33d | nickrud, i'm too lazy to walk upstairs. | 02:41 |
| histo | rpj8: I think I found a way to do that. | 02:41 |
| cl0s_ | or in the welcome to freenet IM that pops up u can enter IRC commands.. | 02:41 |
| moreau | vlc will play the file, but wont display the video nor can I hear the audio from it | 02:41 |
| histo | rpj8: copy the .config from the headers then make modules and copy the modules over the old ones. | 02:41 |

| ejer | Zeroyez: you can remove openoffice after if you wish | 02:47 |
| Zeroyez | ok :/ | 02:47 |
| ejer | nks_: yes I know... it sucks | 02:47 |
| cdj26 | zeroyez: why no openoffice? its sick. just install normal then you can remove | 02:47 |

| ejer | no | 02:47 |
| nickrud | !minimal | Zeroyez (you can add as you please) | 02:48 |
| ubottu | Zeroyez (you can add as you please): 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). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD | 02:48 |

| NemesisD | glitsj16, this could be part of the problem, when i play a vid in mplayer, part of the output is: *** PULSEAUDIO: Unable to connect: Connection refused | 02:54 |

| arrrghhh | how can i add windows on a separate hdd to grub? i added the entry, but it won't boot. do i need to put an entry for the drive in fstab for grub to boot it? | 02:55 |
| glitsj16 | NemesisD: it depends really, try "killall pulseaudio" first , followed with "pulseaudio -D" from terminal | 02:55 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | thiago: you may want to elaborate on that and mention what kind of proble, | 02:55 |
| rpj8 | Filthy-God: What makes Ubuntu software on your ONE laptop so special that only you get the pleasure to debug? | 02:55 |

| Filthy-God | Firefox 3 gets introduced | 02:56 |
| Filthy-God | and the world goes to hell. | 02:56 |
| cdj26 | to "activate" root i think it is sudo su passwd | 02:56 |
| ejer | Filthy-God: so sudo apt-get install firefox-2 | 02:56 |
| NemesisD | glitsj16, not as root right? the plot thickens: W: main.c: RLIMIT_RTPRIO failed: Operation not permitted; E: main.c: read() failed: Operation not permitted | 02:56 |
| rpj8 | Filthy-God: I still hold strong to my previous statement. | 02:56 |
| arrrghhh | s33nagai1, just chown /var/www to wwwdata and you'll be fine | 02:56 |

| nickrud | arrrghhh s33nagai1 www-data that is | 02:56 |
| Filthy-God | FF3 still seems to fail to operate correctly | 02:56 |
| icesword | nickrud, looks like today is nickrud's day, where are other ops? | 02:56 |
| s33nagai1 | arrrghhh: what does chown mean? | 02:56 |
| Apocalisp | Trying to install hardy on fakeraid, I get all the way through the install without errors, but the first boot halts with "/dev/mapper/isw_huueghhugfgf_v02 does not exist". Is my kernel missing a kernel module to load the fakeraid? | 02:56 |
| nickrud | icesword picking apart ultamatix | 02:57 |
| glitsj16 | NemesisD: try "sudo /etc/init.d/pulseaudio start" .. | 02:57 |
| arrrghhh | nickrud, oh right thanks | 02:57 |
| ToastGuy | FF3 still has some issues | 02:57 |
| Filthy-God | tried reporting the bug. | 02:57 |
| ToastGuy | But that's expected | 02:57 |
| Filthy-God | Yes I know | 02:57 |
| arrrghhh | s33nagai1, it's www-data, and www-data is the "user" who accesses your website. | 02:57 |
| Filthy-God | but to fail so hard? | 02:57 |
| NemesisD | glitsj16, that doesn't seem to complain | 02:57 |
| Filthy-God | It's so full of fail. | 02:57 |
| icesword | nickrud, ultamatix? | 02:57 |
| rpj8 | Filthy-God: Vague whiner is vague. | 02:57 |
| ToastGuy | The internet is a more complex place | 02:57 |
| rpj8 | Filthy-God: What is it _doing_ | 02:57 |
| nickrud | icesword that's all I'm gonna do, drop the name once in my lifetime unprompted. Google it :) | 02:57 |
| rpj8 | Filthy-God: And did you try running from a command line to see if you get anything odd as output? | 02:57 |
| Filthy-God | If command prompt didn't whitescreen in the use | 02:57 |
| Filthy-God | I could try it | 02:57 |
| Filthy-God | While FF3 is running | 02:58 |
| glitsj16 | NemesisD: we'll get to the mplayer error in a minute .. for that it's usefull to open a few pulseaudio utils, do you have pavucontrol, paprefs etc. installed ? | 02:58 |
| stodge | ?? | 02:58 |
| arrrghhh | Filthy-God, he means start out in the commandline | 02:58 |
| Pici | Filthy-God: Are you using compiz? | 02:58 |
| arrrghhh | and run ff from the cli | 02:58 |
| Filthy-God | No | 02:58 |
| s33nagai1 | arrrghhh: ??? when I go into /var/ I see www, not www-data | 02:58 |
| arrrghhh | s33nagai1, google chown. | 02:58 |
| Filthy-God | compiz complicates things | 02:58 |
| Pici | Filthy-God: hmmmmm | 02:58 |
| s33nagai1 | k, thanks arrrghhh! | 02:58 |
| cdj26 | how did this happen, Filthy-God, i've never heard of problems like this with hardy | 02:58 |
| arrrghhh | s33nagai1, www-data is not a directory it's a user | 02:58 |
| bradford | How can I check my modem to see if it is working? | 02:58 |
| NemesisD | glitsj16, i believe so yes, interestingly enough though when i run the init.d script, pidof pulseaudio returns nothing, so i don't think its starting | 02:58 |
| ejer | connect to google bradford? | 02:59 |
| nickrud | s33nagai1 ls -l /var/www -d , that shows the owner. Normally it's root, but if you expect apache to be able to write in there (like a site that allows file uploads) you need to have at least the dir you will upload to owned by www-data | 02:59 |
| bradford | yes | 02:59 |
| icesword | nice, it is, ultamatix | 02:59 |
| bradford | this is on a different computer | 02:59 |
| bradford | pppconfig gives an error every time | 02:59 |
| glitsj16 | NemesisD: it can start without a pid, i believe that's a config setting in /etc/pulse/daemon.conf | 02:59 |
| nickrud | icesword no, it's not. It s a tangled piece of <word I can't use in a family channel> | 03:00 |
| NemesisD | glitsj16, would it also then not show up with ps aux|grep pulse ? | 03:00 |
| s33nagai1 | arrrghhh: How do I use it? add a password and login? Then I have access to /var/www.... Or how do I make www-data the owner? | 03:00 |
| arrrghhh | anyone know how to add windows to grub? i made sure windows didn't mess up my mbr, and it boots fine from the boot menu but not from grub | 03:00 |
| JDogHerman | Is there an easy way to recover from a hacked ubuntu box? | 03:00 |
| Filthy-God | kk, I decided to close firefox and it closed clean this time | 03:00 |
| glitsj16 | NemesisD: easily checked though .. try playing something through paplay from terminal .. and yes, in thta case it wouldn't | 03:00 |
| Filthy-God | I didn't have it running for more than 2 minutes | 03:00 |
| Filthy-God | so that is good | 03:00 |
| kevin__ | when i install the ubuntu, i can nit find the wired connection in my network | 03:00 |
| bradford | reinstall grub | 03:01 |
| nickrud | arrrghhh what partition is your windows on | 03:01 |
| Filthy-God | started it in command prompt | 03:01 |
| arrrghhh | s33nagai1, i'd encourage you read the man page on chown... but the command would be "sudo chown -R www-data /var/www/" | 03:01 |
| s33nagai1 | arrrghhh: used to... You have to do something with the chainloader command in grub | 03:01 |
| Balian | #ubuntu-pl | 03:01 |
| histo | rpj8: Nah i'm compiling the modules to the normal .19 config | 03:01 |
| glitsj16 | NemesisD: that's one of the reasons i run pulseaudio daemon as a user only, with a killable pid, but i'm the only user on this machine so it may not be an option in your case | 03:02 |
| NemesisD | glitsj16, failed to open file 'test.mp3' | 03:02 |
| icesword | nickrud, well, they say it is an app which will let ppl run more games in linux, what is your point | 03:02 |
| rpj8 | s33nagai1: chainloader +1 | 03:02 |
| cdj26 | its chanloader+1 i believe | 03:02 |
| arrrghhh | nickrud, /dev/sdc1. should be hd(3,0) but it just says starting up and hangs | 03:02 |
| s33nagai1 | arrrghhh: thanks! | 03:02 |
| NemesisD | glitsj16, nobody touches my computer but me | 03:02 |
| cdj26 | yeah with spave | 03:02 |
| cdj26 | space* | 03:02 |
| histo | Althought I'm contimplating reinstalling now. | 03:02 |
| s33nagai1 | yes, but thats arrrghhh who needs to know! | 03:02 |
| cdj26 | arrghh: when you get it working, sudo cp menu.lst menu.lst_backup | 03:02 |
| rpj8 | histo: Heh, I'm not sure you know what you're doing, because the .config file is only the settings for compiling your kernel | 03:02 |
| nickrud | arrrghhh you need to add map(0,2) <newline> map(2,0) to the windows stanza (assuming you don't have mixed pata/sata, in which case I bow out) | 03:02 |
| glitsj16 | NemesisD: could you paste your /etc/pulse/* files ? .. just to check how things are configured | 03:02 |
| Filthy-God | Maybe I should go to openSUSE | 03:03 |
| NemesisD | sure, sec | 03:03 |
| Filthy-God | That is definitely built for this hardware. | 03:03 |
| icesword | ****, lags 28s | 03:03 |
| arrrghhh | nickrud, maybe that's the problem. ubuntu and grub are on a s-ata drive, and the windows install is on a p-ata drive. | 03:03 |
| rpj8 | Filthy-God: Do whatever you want. | 03:03 |
| rpj8 | Filthy-God: It's yourcomputer, afterall | 03:03 |

| cdj26 | try fedora Filty-God | 03:04 |
| adamfal | any help? | 03:04 |
| Filthy-God | Thank you cliche dissenting elitist. | 03:04 |
| ejer | Filthy-God: have a question? this is a support channel | 03:04 |
| cdj26 | or install Debian and "make your own distro" | 03:04 |
| rpj8 | adamfal: hit in a commandline `alsamixer` | 03:04 |
| rpj8 | adamfal: See if the channels are muted | 03:04 |
| s33nagai1 | Fedora is very nice... used to use it | 03:04 |
| arrrghhh | Filthy-God, or arch | 03:04 |
| adamfal | master is in the red | 03:04 |
| Filthy-God | Yeah... I got cliche dissenting comments from cliche dissenting support elitist. | 03:04 |

| adamfal | line, mic, mic boost, and IEC958 are muted | 03:05 |
| adamfal | that's it | 03:05 |
| arrrghhh | arch has the bleeding edge package stuff down | 03:05 |
| cdj26 | i dont like KDE, especially 4, so i uninstalled fedora before giving it a chance | 03:05 |
| icesword | nickrud, well, they say it is an app which will let ppl run more games in linux, what is your point | 03:05 |
| rpj8 | arrrghhh: Not to mention the aur :) | 03:05 |
| cdj26 | i like ubuntu enough to not worry about other distos | 03:05 |
| arrrghhh | cdj26, can't you pick gnome with fedora? | 03:05 |
| cdj26 | yes | 03:05 |
| Shishire | is anyone else having trouble connecting to scifi rewind? I keep getting a connection error | 03:05 |
| nickrud | icesword wait a bit, there're some blogs in the midst of being written with a critique | 03:05 |
| rpj8 | arrrghhh: I think gnome is default in fedora, no? | 03:05 |
| NemesisD | glitsj16, http://pastebin.ca/1087918 | 03:06 |
| cdj26 | two different CD downloads | 03:06 |
| arrrghhh | rpj8, no it's been kde. but they offer gnome as an option | 03:06 |
| adamfal | rpj8: i think the levels are fine | 03:06 |
| cdj26 | one with KDE, one GNOME | 03:06 |
| Filthy-God | well I used Ubuntu for Monodevelop and Eclipse. | 03:06 |
| adamfal | i got the wireless to work.. kind of proud of myself | 03:06 |
| rpj8 | adamfal: Is there a little MM at the bottom? | 03:06 |
| glitsj16 | NemesisD: okay, i'll report back .. okay if i PM you on this later on ? | 03:06 |
| rpj8 | adamfal: Heh, wireless is a pain. I congradulate you | 03:06 |
| jason__ | exit | 03:06 |
| crimsun | adamfal: run the alsa-info.sh script and tell us the url | 03:07 |
| adamfal | MM i don't think so | 03:07 |
| arrrghhh | autondiswrapper is pretty sweet | 03:07 |
| NemesisD | glitsj16, sure thing, can i pm you my email just in case i'm not on? | 03:07 |
| arrrghhh | takes care of wireless (for the most part) | 03:07 |
| s33nagai1 | arrrghhh: no they are both an option. goto Fedoraproject.org/com then click get fedora. The list both, but no "default! | 03:07 |
| histo | exit | 03:07 |
| adamfal | crimsun: i have no idea how to run a script | 03:07 |
| adamfal | haha | 03:07 |
| glitsj16 | NemesisD: sure, feel free to drop in | 03:07 |
| arrrghhh | s33nagai1, well they didn't used to offer gnome... which is why i call the kde version "default" | 03:07 |
| s33nagai1 | exit | 03:07 |
| s33nagai1 | quit: byebye | 03:07 |
| s33nagai1 | hehe | 03:08 |
| crimsun | adamfal: see wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems. There's a section that tells you how. | 03:08 |
| cdj26 | yeah when you look up fedora, you get KDE Pics | 03:08 |
| cdj26 | especailly because it is the first pop distro with KDE4 installed | 03:08 |
| arrrghhh | yea they've always been about kde | 03:08 |
| cdj26 | doesnt do much for me, gnome is much easier to use | 03:09 |
| adamfal | OH | 03:09 |
| adamfal | MM is all the way down | 03:09 |

| newbee617 | crimsun: thanks | 03:12 |

| === lapetite is now known as gen | ||
| crimsun | emet: are you using 32- or 64-bit Ubuntu? | 03:45 |

| zelrikriando | I like my highlights on 'flash' | 03:45 |
| emet | crimsun, 32-bit | 03:45 |
| cdj26 | emet: that isnt flash, that is all of it. alsa only allows one alsa audio program to play at a time | 03:45 |

| Erdaron | I have a quick python/IDLE question | 03:45 |

| Imaginal | I'm using samba to transfer files between vmware and linux. Those files transfered all automatically have samba as their owner. This is keeping Ex Falso from being able to delete them. How do I fix this? | 03:48 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | Erdaron have you tried #linux-coders channel ? | 03:48 |
| intangir | hello, i plugged my phone into my computer, but it wont let me mount it and grab its files. i checked my messages and it says it detected it, and loaded mass storage stuff, and created the /dev/sg3 and /dev/sg4 for it | 03:48 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | EOF end of file | 03:48 |
| intangir | but it didnt mount it | 03:48 |
| intangir | how do i mount it | 03:49 |
| Erdaron | ManualOverDozer8: no, but I will now | 03:49 |

| ManualOverDozer8 | tokens ummm like video slots you need on to run one | 03:49 |
| cdj26 | crimsun: you removed it | 03:49 |
| crimsun | cdj26: that said, a misconfigured app attempting to open the raw or plug device will hog the device. | 03:50 |
| Erdaron | no, I'm writing a simple script that performs some simple calculations | 03:50 |
| msmarc | exit | 03:50 |
| Erdaron | the error comes up before it even does anything | 03:50 |
| crimsun | cdj26: so, a well behaving ALSA app uses 'default' instead. | 03:50 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | #linux-coders might be your best bet | 03:50 |
| crimsun | cdj26: there are very few exceptions to that guideline, and those exceptions are quite dire. | 03:50 |
| Erdaron | error window says "Tabnanny tokenizing error" at the top | 03:50 |

| sparr | Evolution2: xmms was removed from hardy, debian dumped it :( | 03:58 |
| sparr | td123: he isnt installing it because its not available any more | 03:58 |
| emet | sparr, not that I know of but you can set up a launchpad PPA | 03:58 |
| Flannel | !xmms | Evolution2, sparr | 03:58 |
| ubottu | Evolution2, sparr: xmms is no longer being developed, see http://bugs.debian.org/461309 for more details. Consider using audacious instead. | 03:58 |
| VitaLinux | ok, so u need 2 edit grub 2 add the win boot | 03:58 |
| Bahaa | noo | 03:59 |
| Bahaa | I have grub working now | 03:59 |
| karagabi | hello | 03:59 |

| Bahaa | the lin partition won't be touched , I know | 04:00 |
| pseup` | Bahaa: grup is installed on the win partition? | 04:00 |
| Flannel | sparr: Decision to dropped it came before 1.2.11, 4 years had passed since 1.2.10, and that wasn't because it was bug free. | 04:00 |
| VitaLinux | yeah | 04:00 |
| Evolution2 | sparr: would it cause problems in hardy? | 04:00 |
| VitaLinux | nope, it's not | 04:00 |
| Bahaa | I mean, it won't boot grub | 04:00 |
| Evolution2 | sparr: or audacious simply better? | 04:00 |
| emet | !info audacious | Evolution2 | 04:00 |
| Bahaa | if I reinstall win | 04:00 |
| ubottu | evolution2: audacious (source: audacious): small and fast audio player which supports lots of formats. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.5.0-2ubuntu2~hardy1 (hardy), package size 1111 kB, installed size 3784 kB | 04:00 |
| td123 | Evolution2: nothing really, I recommend rhythmbox, lightweight and stable | 04:01 |
| VitaLinux | it runs from the MBR, I think | 04:01 |
| sparr | Evolution2: having xmms would not cause problems. using gutsy sources would cause problems if you did not manage your pinning rules correctly | 04:01 |
| Bahaa | it will boot win automaticly | 04:01 |
| emet | XMMS is really oldschool though, I doubt it will ever die :o | 04:01 |
| Bahaa | yeah [VitaLinux] | 04:01 |
| VitaLinux | win can not read this part of the disk, but lin does | 04:01 |

| planet_x | slight problem wondering If I could get some assistance: I was trying to transfer Ubuntu installer onto a memory stick using the downloadable Windows Application. I installed off it fine but now after it was reformatted i can only access 715 MB of 8 gigs and windows says 6 GB unallocated, and Ubuntu wont mount the device | 04:01 |

| Blaqlight | Im at a complete loss as to why the wine gecko installer installs the mozilla engine, installs it then refuses to use it | 04:02 |
| Tim | Hi. I uninstalled / re-nstalled ALSA and managed tp uninstall GDM desktop :( . | 04:02 |
| planet_x | anyway to fix this issue and reformat the usb stick so both OS will read it so i can transfer files back and forth? | 04:02 |
| sparr | emet: debian popcon still says thousands of people are using it. extrapolate from that tens of thousands of total users on debian. probably that many again on pre-hardy ubuntu | 04:02 |
| emet | yeah so maybe someone should maintain it | 04:02 |
| VitaLinux | Anybody here can explain to bahaa how 2 edit GRUB 2 add another OS? | 04:02 |

| sparr | Evolution2: Audacious is a not-horrible fork-of-a-fork-of-a-fork-of-xmms | 04:04 |
| td123 | Evolution2: try audacious/amarok/rhythmbox | 04:04 |
| VitaLinux | that's what I want to help you on | 04:04 |
| Gillpy_ | Bahaa: you have to boot into some linux and reinstall grub | 04:04 |

| Yondering | RazorBeamz, then you'll need to change the session on the login screen to use kde, once it's finished. | 04:16 |
| aadasas | umm... one sec | 04:16 |

| ubottu | LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+) | 04:17 |

| planet_x | td123: i reformatted the whole stick into FAT but still having same issue.. Windows picks it up no problem but Ubuntu says invalid mount option when attempting to mount volume and wont pick up the files i transfered over, any help appreciated thanks | 04:17 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | VitaLinux : http://www.medibuntu.org/ worked for me on streaming audio | 04:17 |

| aadasas | with aeskulap it doesnt auto find them i have to search the cd and when i open them... its just a black image .. but it does show like some info on the pics | 04:18 |

| planet_x | td123: sorry nvm i figured it out thanks for the help | 04:20 |
| td123 | aadasas: it isn't a long term solution, but if you need to view them, you could try going into synaptic, search for "dicom" you can use a package called medcon/xmedcon to convert the images to a png or other format supported by gimp so you can at least view the images | 04:20 |
| VitaLinux | anybody can help to set correctly the port binding with MySQL here? | 04:20 |

| Yondering | er, ubuntu-desktop rather. | 04:22 |

| _Zeuz_ | mentat, I think it's pretty self explainatory | 04:32 |
| mentat | i sit | 04:32 |

| mentat | because i have never seen an error like that in windows | 04:32 |

| ice109 | yea | 04:34 |
| ice109 | so i don't get it i can or i can't run multiple processes on on terminal session? | 04:34 |
| _Zeuz_ | mentat, ps auxw and SEE IF THERE ARE NO OPEN FILES :D | 04:34 |
| td123 | ps -e(verything) | 04:34 |
| mentat | lol | 04:35 |
| td123 | ice109: yes, but you can only have one application that is currently using the terminal (other programs can be running in background) | 04:35 |
| Gillpy_ | !bg | 04:35 |
| ubottu | опитайте #ubuntu-bg за български потребители . try #ubuntu-bg for bulgarian users, and please idle there patiently | 04:35 |
| Gillpy_ | stupid bot | 04:35 |
| ice109 | td123: so how do i exit a terminal app without quitting it? | 04:36 |
| mentat | this TO MANY OPEN FILES is in uTorrent running under wine | 04:36 |
| mentat | but there is only like 10 torrents running | 04:36 |
| LinuxIST | actually, Imeant this file: mimeTypes.rdf | 04:36 |
| ListenToMyMusic | too many | 04:36 |
| thinh | how does the patch work? | 04:36 |
| td123 | ice109: you mean send it to the background? you type "command &" to send it to the background so it doesn't use the current terminal | 04:36 |
| mentat | what is a good torrent client for ubuntu | 04:36 |
| Gillpy_ | ice109: you need to use screen for that | 04:37 |
| ListenToMyMusic | transmission, ktorrent | 04:37 |
| td123 | mentat: transmission | 04:37 |
| thinh | nvidia windows | 04:37 |
| Gillpy_ | !screen | 04:37 |

| ice109 | td123: suppose i launch transmission and want to "minimize" it in the terminal | 04:37 |
| thinh | compiz config border issue | 04:37 |
| ice109 | how do i do that | 04:37 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | LinuxIST you need the contents of mimeTypes.rdf ? | 04:37 |
| thinh | need to fix border for firefox anyone? | 04:38 |
| ListenToMyMusic | mentat: i use ktorrent and it works fine for me, has a upnp plugin to auto port foward and an rss feed reader to auto download some torrents | 04:38 |
| td123 | mentat: it does the job so I haven't used any others | 04:38 |
| LinuxIST | ManualOverDozer8, if you use kde and ff 3 | 04:38 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | nope Gnome here | 04:38 |
| mentat | ListenToMyMusic: does it work in Gnome? | 04:38 |
| ListenToMyMusic | mentat yes | 04:38 |
| mentat | nice | 04:38 |
| mentat | and it runns well? | 04:38 |
| ListenToMyMusic | mentat appearance will be different | 04:38 |
| ListenToMyMusic | yeahh | 04:39 |
| mentat | cause im on a 100/100 connection | 04:39 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | actually it is a pretty small file, not much in it really | 04:39 |
| ListenToMyMusic | kde apps run just fine in gnome | 04:39 |
| mentat | i need something that runs well and will get the speeds i need | 04:39 |
| td123 | ice109: do ctrl + z to send it to the background, but that will freeze the application sort of "suspending it" to get it back, type fg | 04:39 |
| ListenToMyMusic | i dl at 1.5 MB/s sometimes | 04:39 |
| ListenToMyMusic | so yeah | 04:39 |
| palomer | how do I add something to my path? | 04:39 |
| mentat | ill give it a shot | 04:39 |
| mentat | ktorrent | 04:39 |
| ListenToMyMusic | while transmission dls at around 400 kb/s | 04:39 |
| ice109 | so then, supposing transmission, won't dl anymore? | 04:39 |
| AeronTS | I'm trying to install the sdlmame package and am getting some sort of buffer reading error message, can someone please help me? thanks | 04:39 |
| td123 | ice109: but I would just recommend learning screen if you're not going to use multiple xterms/ a window manager | 04:39 |
| mentat | thanks ListenToMyMusic, one other question | 04:39 |
| AeronTS | here is the pasted output to pastebin -> http://pastebin.com/m94eefdb | 04:39 |

| ice109 | td123: what is screen? | 04:40 |
| ListenToMyMusic | mentat: under plugins enable upnp and port foward if you have a router | 04:40 |
| mentat | i dont | 04:40 |
| td123 | !screen | ice109 | 04:40 |

| LinuxIST | this what mine looks like now: http://rafb.net/p/2wQ7gO39.html | 04:40 |
| ListenToMyMusic | i installed the kde theme manager though to change the appearance of kde apps | 04:41 |
| td123 | ice109: may I ask why you aren't using a window manager? | 04:41 |
| thinh | what the command to fix the border for compiz with nvidia | 04:41 |
| mentat | whats the best way to install KDE and also have Gnome as an option? | 04:41 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | LinuxIST yours is much more extensive than mine | 04:41 |
| Flannel | palomer: What are you trying to add? | 04:41 |
| ice109 | td123: i am | 04:41 |
| AeronTS | i found the sdlmame package at http://wallyweek.altervista.org/ | 04:41 |
| LinuxIST | ManualOverDozer8, but it does not work | 04:41 |
| ice109 | just playing around with terminal | 04:41 |
| Flannel | mentat: either install kubuntu or ubuntu from the disk, then install the other's metapackage (ubuntu-desktop or kubuntu-desktop) | 04:41 |
| ListenToMyMusic | mentat: dont recomend it | 04:42 |
| td123 | ice109: why don't you just use multiple xterm windows? | 04:42 |
| ice109 | i am doing that right now | 04:42 |
| ice109 | it just seems cumbersome | 04:42 |
| mentat | ListenToMyMusic: causes some problems? | 04:42 |
| ListenToMyMusic | mentat: try it with two seperate installations, my gnome got all cluttered when i had both installed | 04:42 |
| palomer | Flannel, I'm trying to add /usr/bin to my path in my makefile | 04:42 |
| Gillpy_ | ice109: screen is what you are looking for | 04:42 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | LinuxIST yes i can see it may not work for you , i kept most all things default so those i would assume are modifications from default | 04:42 |
| mentat | so dal boot ? | 04:42 |
| palomer | Flannel, for some reason, the makefile doesn't use my environment | 04:42 |
| mentat | dual boot rather | 04:42 |
| td123 | ice109: oh ok :) that clears up some confusion, keep poking around | 04:43 |
| Flannel | mentat: no. Just have both DEs installed on the same install | 04:43 |
| slammed87d21 | i need help with making my wireless work | 04:43 |

| mentat | i got 2 people telling me 2 diff things lol | 04:43 |
| ListenToMyMusic | lol | 04:43 |
| ListenToMyMusic | whats the other saying? | 04:43 |
| Flannel | ListenToMyMusic, mentat: to clean up your menus (remove gnome entries from kde, and v.v.) use this: http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2007/07/18/removing-kde-icons-in-gnome-remove-gnome-icons-in-kde/ | 04:43 |
| slammed87d21 | anyone? | 04:44 |
| Flannel | ListenToMyMusic: There's absolutely no reason to dual boot. | 04:44 |
| ListenToMyMusic | ok | 04:44 |
| ListenToMyMusic | do kde services run in gnome and v.v? | 04:44 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | slammed87d21 L has it ever worked ? | 04:44 |
| Flannel | ListenToMyMusic: services that start with the WM will only run with the WM they start with. | 04:44 |
| mentat | not sure lol | 04:44 |
| slammed87d21 | not since i installed ubuntu | 04:45 |

| slammed87d21 | yes | 04:45 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | slammed87d21 how about anything else like command lines ? | 04:45 |
| Gillpy_ | Flannel: I have run plenty of gnome stuff in other wm's | 04:45 |
| Flannel | Gillpy_: yes. gnome-volume-manager for instance won't run unless gnome is running, etc. | 04:45 |
| slammed87d21 | not really | 04:46 |
| Flannel | Gillpy_: When you load up the libraries, stuff changes. | 04:46 |
| mentat | i like KDE much better | 04:46 |
| Flannel | Gillpy_: But if you just have gnome and kde installed side by side, unless you ask them to, they won't step on each others toes | 04:46 |

| debian_akroyd | Fuxxor, did you visit the link supplied by ubottu | 05:17 |
| bderrly | Gman99999, do you have a preference for compression? i don't know of a "self-extracting" compression, though gzip or bzip will probably work, or you can use zip | 05:18 |
| Pelo | Fuxxor, you just select add a new printer from the printer manager in the admin menu, easy enough just follow the dialog box | 05:18 |
| debian_akroyd | Gonzalo, well..you can either switch into a different tty console then run (sudo) kill [pid] or (sudo) killall [process name] | 05:18 |

| Gman99999 | bderryl also Im sending it to a windows newb so it can't be a format that windows doesnt understand | 05:20 |
| debian_akroyd | sadly 128 is the highest i have | 05:20 |
| Gillpy_ | Gman99999: best compression is with bzip2 --best | 05:20 |
| bderrly | you should be able to use that with the default archive manager that comes with gnome | 05:20 |
| Gonzalo | debian_akroy, thanks, but what I need is that the process is killed automatically when I log out in Gnome. | 05:20 |
| Pelo | Gman99999, compression is highly dependent on the type of file, data base and spread sheats compress a lot, video and images don'T compress so much, video actualy almost not at all, avi is already a compressed format | 05:20 |
| Pelo | debian_akroyd, thanks | 05:20 |

| Pelo | bderrly, I meant because it's a wma file , already a compressed format, he would get decent compression out of a .wav but for the same content the wav would already be about 10 times the size of a wma | 05:24 |
| face-shot | yeah, I thought I got a free over-night upgrade | 05:24 |
| face-shot | lmao | 05:24 |
| FAJALOU | !ask | casemods | 05:24 |
| casemods | !ask | 05:24 |
| charlottesmith | Anyone have this problem? | 05:24 |
| Gman99999 | Thanks Everyone | 05:25 |
| charlottesmith | I can't seem to find any mention of this elsewhere. | 05:25 |
| casemods | ok well I want to run xfire, steam, and some games on ubuntu | 05:25 |
| ubottu | casemods: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 05:25 |
| face-shot | FAJALOU, so is this an unresolved bug? | 05:25 |
| bderrly | Gman99999, good luck | 05:25 |
| Gman99999 | Very Grateful and have a great night | 05:25 |
| FAJALOU | face-shot: i don't know, i personally have never actually used it for technical purposes | 05:25 |
| Gonzalo | debian_akroy, a bash script that takes screen shots of the user desktop in an interval of 1 second, and that starts working when the user logs in. | 05:25 |
| debian_akroyd | do they have xfire for linux? i dont recall seeing it | 05:25 |
| face-shot | Steam runs on linux?! | 05:25 |
| debian_akroyd | you may have to run xfire with wine | 05:25 |
| casemods | what's wine? | 05:26 |
| face-shot | "WINE Is Not An Emulator" | 05:26 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | !wine | 05:26 |

| neon | wine is an emu | 05:26 |
| msmarc | cd / | 05:26 |
| debian_akroyd | Gonzalo, well since theres no desktop running when you log out, it probably kills it then..but you can always switch into a different tty console and run top to see if its there when you log out | 05:27 |
| Vampy | any one know how to map a drive from a windows os to ubuntu? | 05:27 |
| casemods | so i should be able to run steam/xfire/ games with wine? | 05:27 |
| dr_Willis | Vampy, you can browse and mount windows 'shares' using the gnome file manager, or other ways. | 05:27 |
| Tim | Hi. I'm trying to get my desktop back after accidentally losing it when uninsyalling / re-installing ALSA | 05:27 |
| Vampy | gnome file manager.. lemme try that first | 05:28 |
| face-shot | where can I edit pre-login visual (i.e., screen dimming, etc.) preferences? | 05:28 |
| Gonzalo | debian_akroyd, exactly, when the desktop is not running and I log out into another user session, the process still running (it is nos killed) | 05:28 |
| casemods | one last question, how do i install things? | 05:28 |
| bderrly | Tim, you shouldn't have lost your desktop from uninstalling alsa... | 05:28 |
| adamfalkofske | crimsun: could you help me enable sound in flash videos in firefox? | 05:28 |
| Tim | But the archives can't be fetched : 'Could not resolve archive.ubuntu.com' | 05:28 |
| Zeroyez | I just asked the same question >.< | 05:29 |
| debian_akroyd | Gonzalo, so if you want to kill it, then run (sudo) kill [pid] or (sudo) killall [process name] | 05:29 |
| Vampy | where would i find the gnome file manager | 05:29 |
| Tim | bderrly: Well, when I boot now I just get CLI | 05:29 |
| Urbandale | alright people, im in a pickle here. it involves installing Ubuntu on a laptop that had Vista preinstalled. i was lazy, and i downloaded the new iso, mounted, and thought, what the hell, ill let it auto-run to see if they've made a new dialogue box. in mid install, my laptop's power went out. i rebooted, and it had vista's grub saying that Ubuntu was partioned, but i cannot boot into it. it says that its missing files. i also cant see the p | 05:29 |
| Urbandale | and sorry for the block of text | 05:29 |
| bderrly | Tim, that isn't an alsa issue, are you getting an error? | 05:29 |
| j | Hi , how can i configure my ubuntu to remote desktop? | 05:29 |
| === j is now known as Guest49186 | ||
| Zeroyez | I find it terrible how they removed the "install missing plugins" thing from firefox in ubuntu 8.04 | 05:29 |
| neon | casemods: use wine-doors | 05:29 |
| Zeroyez | I need it back :( | 05:29 |
| dr_Willis | Vampy, its the default file manager you are using,. if you are using ubuntu. Theres some 'network' location you use to see the various windows network/shares. | 05:29 |
| Guest49186 | or set to remote desktop to able to use it at my work place? | 05:29 |
| debian_akroyd | Urbandale, vista has a problem when booting linux from vista boot loader ... no matter how good the install went | 05:30 |
| Tim | bderrly: Let me reboot laptop and I'll tell you. One sec. | 05:30 |
| casemods | how do i install wine?? | 05:30 |
| === Guest49186 is now known as bravo | ||
| neon | casemods: use wine-doors | 05:30 |
| bravo | Hi , how can i configure my ubuntu to remote desktop? | 05:30 |
| debian_akroyd | Urbandale, just install ubuntu again..it will make it so that it loads grub first instead of vistas boot loader | 05:30 |
| Urbandale | so if im running vista, im plum out of luck? | 05:30 |
| dr_Willis | !wine | casemods | 05:30 |
| ubottu | casemods: WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility. | 05:30 |
| debian_akroyd | Urbandale, not exactly...reboot and reinstall ubuntu | 05:30 |
| Urbandale | i cannot install it again. it cannot boot from cd for some reson | 05:30 |
| Vampy | ok.. so when i open the file manager and point to the folder i wish to share between ubuntu and windows.. what would the next step be | 05:30 |
| debian_akroyd | Urbandale, it will install grub, which will detect vista | 05:31 |
| neon | casemods: your best bet is to use wine-doors it has the steam engine on it so you can install it | 05:31 |
| casemods | I'm so new to ubuntu...how do I do all of this? | 05:31 |
| Gonzalo | debian_akroyd, what I am searching is where I have to run the kill or the killall command, so that these commands run automatically when I log out. | 05:31 |
| casemods | I mean like what file? | 05:31 |
| dr_Willis | Vampy, you sort of just asked a different thing. :) The gnome file manager can access shares on the windows box. as for shareing directories to the windows machine. I always install samba, and configure it manually. Theres proberly some gnome gui tools to do it. But ive never used them, | 05:31 |
| Tim | bderrly: First error is kinit: No resume image, doing normal boot. | 05:32 |
| casemods | I'm used to executables | 05:32 |
| bderrly | Tim, don't worry about that | 05:32 |
| Zeroyez | Why does the search field on the ubuntu 8.04 start page go to the uk version of google instead of going to google.com and having google.com auto direct them to the right country | 05:32 |
| debian_akroyd | Gonzalo, sorry im not too familiar with that..you would have to ask around | 05:32 |
| DysfunXionaL | casemods: System>Synaptic Package Manager> | 05:32 |
| Tim | bderrly: OK :) | 05:33 |
| debian_akroyd | Gonzalo, or possibly do a google search | 05:33 |
| Urbandale | how do i install ubuntu if i cannot boot from CD? | 05:33 |
| Tim | bderrly: What next? | 05:33 |
| Urbandale | thats my main issue now, i suppose | 05:33 |
| Gonzalo | debian_akroyd, ok, thanks anyway for your time | 05:33 |
| debian_akroyd | Urbandale, can you get into windows? | 05:33 |
| Urbandale | yes | 05:33 |
| DysfunXionaL | casemods: search Wine, check it, it should install itself | 05:33 |
| dobblego | how do I add/delete entries under "Places" in the GNOME toolbar | 05:33 |
| debian_akroyd | Urbandale, and you did burn the cd correct? | 05:33 |
| Cazz2 | Hey I tried to follow this guide on uh, wpa_supplicant and there was no config file where it said there was (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WPAHowTo#WPA%20Supplicant) and I need to connect it to the internet via wireless. | 05:34 |
| Urbandale | no, its the actual CD from canonical | 05:34 |
| bderrly | Tim, does gdm attempt to run and fail or does it just load to cli and stop? | 05:34 |
| dr_Willis | dobblego, open the file manager, ya see them on the left side panel, try dragging new places there, or right click/deleting the old ones. | 05:34 |
| debian_akroyd | Urbandale, can your computer boot to cds? | 05:34 |
| dobblego | dr_Willis, ah cheers | 05:34 |
| Cazz2 | and dobblego; Go to System > Preferences > Menu | 05:34 |
| Urbandale | it comes with a vista disk in case the shit hits the fan, so i suppose so. i would check, but i cant now :P | 05:35 |
| Tim | bderrly: Not sure. Looks like CLI. | 05:35 |
| Tim | bderrly: Sorry to be so vague. | 05:35 |
| casemods | !file roler | 05:35 |
| debian_akroyd | Urbandale, well, if you can, boot to the cd, then run the install from the cd...do you want to dual boot ubuntu with vista? | 05:35 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about file roler | 05:35 |
| bravo | I need help setting up remote desktop | 05:35 |

| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about archive manager | 05:36 |
| bderrly | meh | 05:36 |
| Tim | bderrly: Not really. The last thing I did was uninstall and re-install ALSA. | 05:36 |
| adamfalkofske | nevermind, i got the sound on flash videos in firefox to work | 05:36 |
| debian_akroyd | Cazz2, what linksys card are you using? i need the model number | 05:36 |
| bderrly | Tim, so previously it booted into the gui though? | 05:36 |
| Cazz2 | Aye, I'll go open it up and check. | 05:36 |
| morrison | -.- | 05:37 |
| Tim | bderrly: Correct. | 05:37 |
| glitsj16 | !file-roller | 05:37 |

| bderrly | casemods, you really don't need to do that | 05:37 |
| bderrly | Cazz2, you really don't need to do that | 05:37 |
| bderrly | casemods, ignore that last message to you ;) | 05:37 |
| casemods | ok | 05:37 |
| Urbandale | debian, i cant. is there a way to edit the current Windows' GRUB screen? or at least make it so Ubuntu is no longer detected? i cant find a single Ubuntu file installed on here anyway, so i dont think it did anything more than start to partition | 05:38 |
| bderrly | Tim, login and run `sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start` | 05:38 |
| Cazz2 | debian_akroyd: Linksys, Wireless-G, Model No.: WMP54G | 05:38 |

| Cazz2 | casemods; You untar them. | 05:38 |
| Tim | bderrly: OK. One sec | 05:39 |
| debian_akroyd | Cazz2, ive heard some cases where people had to use the ndiswrapper to get it to work. | 05:39 |
| casemods | meaning? | 05:39 |
| Gillpy_ | casemods: tar xzf foobar.tar.gz | 05:39 |
| Cazz2 | casemods; Type tar -xvf <file>.tar.gz | 05:39 |
| DysfunXionaL | bravo, what OS are you trying to connect to?? | 05:39 |
| casemods | where? | 05:39 |
| glitsj16 | casemods: http://monkeyblog.org/ubuntu/installing/ offers a nice overview on those kind of topics | 05:39 |
| Urbandale | in console | 05:40 |
| Cazz2 | debian_akroyd; Can you find me a tutorial on ndiswrapper? | 05:40 |
| debian_akroyd | Urbandale, well..um...there is..but its extremely complicated (Thanks microsoft) and i dont even bother with it..what i would do in your case, if you want ubuntu, i would install it via wubi | 05:40 |
| Cazz2 | !ndiswrapper | 05:40 |
| ubottu | Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 05:40 |

| morrison | hi | 05:42 |
| morrison | -.- | 05:43 |
| Cazz2 | debian_akroyd: Just wondering, is it possible that it works with Ubuntu Desktop but not Ubuntu Server? | 05:43 |
| bderrly | Tim, ?? sudo wasn't found? | 05:43 |
| Cazz2 | Because I previously had desktop running and it works fine. | 05:43 |
| morrison | -.- | 05:44 |
| Tim | bderrly; I can use sudo ok. Was that syntax correct? | 05:44 |
| Cazz2 | Is it possible that it works with Ubuntu Desktop but not Ubuntu Server? | 05:44 |
| Cazz2 | er | 05:44 |
| Carbon_life | Cazz2: I didn't see what you said, but it is possible for Ubuntu Desktop to run a program but not the server, because the server doesn't load any graphical libs, etc | 05:44 |
| DysfunXionaL | bravo, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=42941&highlight=remote+desktop+xp | can walk you through the process | 05:44 |

| tonyyarusso | epipyhte: Yes, you can sell Ubuntu CDs. | 05:58 |
| itai-michaelson | how do i find the path for a launcher ? i want to launch open office | 05:58 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | Liquid_life he has all the files and madwifi-tools installed but the tar.gz it would take me forever to help with | 05:58 |
| Liquid_life | slammed87d21: usually ./configure ; make ; sudo make install | 05:58 |
| Starnestommy | kushalsejwal: those are the consoles/terminals that you can usually get to with ctrl+alt+f[1-6] | 05:58 |
| tonyyarusso | epipyhte: Best Buy is currently doing so, in fact. | 05:58 |
| Bahaa | how can I install new fonts to ubuntu ?????? | 05:58 |
| epipyhte | i want to become a hacker | 05:58 |
| tonyyarusso | !fonts | Bahaa | 05:58 |
| ubottu | Bahaa: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer | 05:58 |
| Liquid_life | wols_: any ideas? | 05:58 |
| Bahaa | Thank You | 05:58 |
| bderrly | Tim, did you catch the apt-cdrom bit? | 05:59 |
| kushalsejwal | Starnestommy: I have disable ttys2-6 would that create any problem??? | 05:59 |
| Starnestommy | kushalsejwal: you would only have one tty in the event that you can't use the graphical environment | 05:59 |
| morrison | hi | 05:59 |
| slammed87d21 | it says no target specified | 05:59 |
| Tim | tonyyarusso: Which option should I use with apt-cdrom? | 06:00 |
| epipyhte | how to become hacker | 06:00 |
| bderrly | kushalsejwal, is there any reason you want/need to do that? | 06:00 |
| Sanctusorium | :( No one? | 06:00 |
| Sanctusorium | Ah well, no biggie =p | 06:00 |
| epipyhte | HI HOW TO BECOME HACKER | 06:00 |
| Liquid_life | epipyhte: google | 06:00 |
| Tim | bderrly: Sorry, missed your msg. Been up all night (now dawn here in London) | 06:00 |
| bderrly | Tim, looks like -d /dev/cdrom would do the trick | 06:00 |
| epipyhte | Liquid_life: not funny | 06:01 |
| kushalsejwal | bderrly: I was reading a blog for increasing Ubuntu speed. it was written "Ubuntu comes with 6 ttys enabled. You usually don't need more than 1 tty at a time. To disable tty2 to tty6:" | 06:01 |
| Liquid_life | epipyhte: you can start by hacking 127.0.0.1 | 06:01 |
| Tim | bderrly: Will try that. | 06:01 |
| epipyhte | k. now we're talking | 06:01 |
| bderrly | kushalsejwal, you won't be speeding your system up by doing htat | 06:01 |
| tonyyarusso | Tim: I think it's just like 'apt-cdrom add', but check the man page to confirm. | 06:01 |
| tonyyarusso | !contribute | epipyhte | 06:01 |
| epipyhte | that's an IP address, basically | 06:01 |
| ubottu | epipyhte: To contribute and help out with Ubuntu, see http://www.ubuntu.com/community/participate | 06:01 |
| epipyhte | how to start | 06:01 |
| bderrly | ugh | 06:01 |
| bderrly | why are you guys contributing to the delinquincy of a troll? | 06:01 |
| bderrly | i know i didn't spell that correctly... | 06:02 |
| slammed87d21 | ./configure ; make ;sudo make install | 06:02 |
| slammed87d21 | bash: ./configure: No such file or directory | 06:02 |
| slammed87d21 | make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop. | 06:02 |
| slammed87d21 | so what am i doing wrong? | 06:02 |
| * bderrly heads off to the dictionary | 06:02 | |
| Liquid_life | !pastebin | slammed87d21 | 06:02 |
| ubottu | slammed87d21: pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 06:02 |
| kushalsejwal | bderrly: Yes, I agree rather ironially my internet speed has decreased thats the reason I asked you guys. I hope disabling ttys 2-6 didnt had any effect on my internet speed?? does it?? | 06:02 |
| bderrly | kushalsejwal, no | 06:02 |
| bderrly | it would have zero effect on your internet speed | 06:02 |
| Liquid_life | slammed87d21: check the INSTALL or README file | 06:02 |
| Liquid_life | slammed87d21: I can't tell you more without seeing the tarball myself | 06:03 |
| epipyhte | i like pasteplace.net its bettar than pastebin -- not so many popupz | 06:03 |
| bderrly | delinquency | 06:03 |
| Johnny | how do i make it so flashkiller will load youtube videos without me having to click them | 06:03 |
| epipyhte | thats like credit card fags... can't pay it off... deliquent | 06:03 |
| invisibleprison | Can someone please help? I have never had this problem with any other audio, but on the site I am trying to play audio on, the audio is playing way too fast. | 06:03 |
| epipyhte | so | 06:04 |
| epipyhte | anyways | 06:04 |
| epipyhte | how to become hacker | 06:04 |
| bderrly | ahh, /ignore how i love thee | 06:04 |
| kushalsejwal | bderrly: I am having a very strange problem, pls go thru if you can help "Whenever, I am installing/downloading any software or even updating ubuntu "hardy" I cannot surf internet, not a single site opens, all my downloads in torrent or otherwise goes 0 kbps/s. And the moment the software is downloaded, internet start working again." | 06:04 |
| Tim | bderrly: Getting error "Unable to stat the mount point ..... (not a directory) | 06:04 |
| bderrly | Tim, try -d /media/cdrom | 06:05 |
| epipyhte | HI HOW TO HACK | 06:05 |
| slammed87d21 | if anyone can help me install this since im new, please pm me | 06:05 |
| epipyhte | slammed87d21: i can. | 06:05 |
| bderrly | or just leave off the -d and try `apt-cdrom add` | 06:05 |
| Tim | bderrly: OK | 06:05 |
| invisibleprison | Is there a way to change system audio speed? | 06:05 |
| epipyhte | invisibleprison: no there's no way to do that. you're sol | 06:06 |
| bderrly | kushalsejwal, what connection speed do you have? sounds like you're maxing it out when updating | 06:06 |
| l0fls | my terminal is asking me if im root when i try to install stuff any sugjestions | 06:06 |
| bderrly | invisibleprison, not that i know of, it is usually application specific | 06:06 |
| bderrly | l0fls, use sudo | 06:06 |
| bderrly | !sudo | l0fls | 06:06 |
| FAJALOU | my friend is having troubles with gparted; it's not letting him create more than 4 primary partition: but he only wants linux-swap as one of them... any helP | 06:06 |
| ubottu | l0fls: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome), or !kdesu (KDE) | 06:07 |
| invisibleprison | epipyhte: This is not the appropriate channel to be asking about hacking. | 06:07 |
| kushalsejwal | bderrly: I have 200 + kbps speed | 06:07 |
| snarkster | hi guys I need some help with grub | 06:07 |
| snarkster | !grub | 06:07 |
| ubottu | grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 06:07 |
| invisibleprison | bderrly: What if it's on a web page? lol | 06:07 |
| FAJALOU | !ask | snarkster | 06:07 |
| bderrly | FAJALOU, you can only have four primary, you need to make one of the primaries house extended partitions | 06:07 |
| ubottu | snarkster: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 06:07 |
| l0fls | thanks that worked :) | 06:07 |
| epipyhte | l0fls: login into your root account, delete ubuntu and install windows. you can download windows from www.google.com using the search terms "free hax0rred wind0ze d0wnl0ad CrAckZ!!!1111 " | 06:07 |
| DysfunXionaL | l0fls.:: 'sudo -i' then install under root | 06:07 |
| itai-michaelson | FAJALOU, how many partitions are there? 4 is the max | 06:07 |
| bderrly | invisibleprison, then it is using hte gstreamer (i think) module...not sure about that... | 06:07 |
| [[cOuWo_fZz]] | nick Co-26_salesman_ajah | 06:08 |
| epipyhte | also, try www.apple.com i heard their BETTAR | 06:08 |
| FAJALOU | itai-michaelson: even if one is swap? and so how should i go around making one root one home, and one swap... should i use an extended partition? | 06:08 |
| invisibleprison | bderrly... do you know how I would change the gstreamer settings? at least as a temp fix... assuming that's the problem | 06:08 |
| bderrly | kushalsejwal, i'm not sure what to tell you, it sounds like a network issue more than anything | 06:08 |
| dropknee | #freenode | 06:08 |
| Tim | bderry: it's reading the CD OK but can't open file /var/lib/apt/lists/Ubuntu (etc, etc) 13 Permission Denied | 06:08 |
| bderrly | invisibleprison, probably in gconf | 06:09 |
| itai-michaelson | FAJALOU, yes, basically you cant have more than 4 even if one is swap , but you can make the swap a logical partition | 06:09 |
| bderrly | Tim, run apt-cdrom with sudo | 06:09 |
| invisibleprison | bderry, I'll look. Thanks | 06:09 |
| dfgas | do i have to put a use in a certain group to use a webcam? cause in order for zoneminder to use my webcam i have to chmod 777 /dev/video0 | 06:09 |
| Tim | bderrly: OK | 06:09 |
| kushalsejwal | bderrly: okay, I will contact my ISP | 06:09 |
| kushalsejwal | :( | 06:09 |
| FAJALOU | itai-michaelson: how so? should i make one partition an extended partition, and have 3 logical partitions inside of that? | 06:09 |
| epipyhte | GO TO WWW.WINDOWS.COM | 06:09 |
| epipyhte | FOR ENLIGHTENMENT. | 06:10 |
| itai-michaelson | FAJALOU, can u 1.windows 2. root 3. home 4. swap? | 06:10 |
| bderrly | kushalsejwal, i'm not sure that that will get you anywhere ;) | 06:10 |
| itai-michaelson | how many windows partitions are thre? | 06:10 |
| epipyhte | LOL@LUNIX LOL@OPEN SOREZ. WHATTA FAILURE L0L LUNIX DID WTC. LOL LUNIX. | 06:10 |
| bderrly | lets try to troubleshoot a bit more | 06:10 |
| FAJALOU | itai-michaelson: unfortunately there are two | 06:10 |
| cfedde | dfgas: might be easier to add you to the group the device is in rather than the other way around. | 06:10 |
| bderrly | so you say that when you download system upgrades you can't do anything else on the network, eg, surf the web? | 06:10 |
| graelb | Hi there, is there a way to get rid of the little gray squares on the outside of panels in gnome, when you hide said panel? | 06:10 |
| epipyhte | graelb: SHUT UP N00B. | 06:10 |
| dfgas | cfedde, what group would that be? | 06:11 |
| Tim | bderrly: Seems OK. What should I type next? | 06:11 |
| FAJALOU | epiphyte: go get a life and get off here. | 06:11 |
| Miesco | Whats a good softsynth | 06:11 |
| epipyhte | Tim: THEY GAY GROUP. | 06:11 |
| itai-michaelson | FAJALOU, so you can go 1.windows 2. windows 3. root 4 home + logical extended partition swap | 06:11 |
| bderrly | Tim, sudo apt-get install gdm | 06:11 |
| glitsj16 | invisibleprison: gstreamer-properties is part of the gnome-media package .. but there's nothing there to change audio speed | 06:11 |
| epipyhte | FAJALOU: shut up monkeyface | 06:11 |
| glitsj16 | epiphyte: enough already | 06:11 |
| invisibleprison | glitsj16: I am not even sure it is a gstreamer problem... this is the first and only instance | 06:11 |
| FAJALOU | itai-michaelson: so the 4th partition would inclued home and swap, both as logical? | 06:11 |
| DysfunXionaL | kushalsejwal.:: alot of companies have "CAP" limits on bandwidth, eg; i download over 20gigs and they "CAP" me, only allowing 100kbs. | 06:11 |
| epipyhte | how are you ubuntu failures doing today?!!! | 06:12 |
| high-freq | has anyone used xmblackberry and if so is there a repo for it? | 06:12 |
| itai-michaelson | FAJALOU, yes | 06:12 |
| kushalsejwal | bderrly: then what can I do | 06:12 |
| cfedde | dfgas: when you ls -l the device file the result'll tell you. Probably the video group. | 06:12 |
| DysfunXionaL | kushalsejwal.:: a thought if all else fails | 06:12 |
| bderrly | kushalsejwal, did you see my last few messages to you? | 06:12 |
| glitsj16 | invisibleprison: yep, hard to debug i guess .. what site are you refering to actually ? might be a genral issue on their side | 06:12 |
| dfgas | cfedde, k thanks never knew that. | 06:13 |
| msmarc | exit | 06:13 |
| kushalsejwal | bderrly: yes i do | 06:13 |
| invisibleprison | glitsj16: It is skillport.com, a site for doing online training... I highly doubt it is a problem on their end | 06:13 |
| acrousey | hi again all | 06:13 |
| Tim | bderry: For some reason the cd-rom unmounts after telling me source list entries. | 06:14 |
| FAJALOU | is it possible to resize a logical parition? b/c my friend is having difficulties... | 06:14 |
| glitsj16 | invisibleprison: okay thanks, no clue to what might be causing it | 06:14 |
| Tim | bderrly: then asks for rest of cd's in set! | 06:14 |
| invisibleprison | glitsj16: ug... maybe I should try with a boot cd and see if it does it | 06:14 |
| acrousey | i tried the folder sharing option with ubuntu and it tells me that i "need to install the Windows network sharing service in order to share my folders" | 06:14 |
| bderrly | kushalsejwal, what have you tried to troubleshoot the issue? | 06:15 |
| kushalsejwal | I forgot whats the command that is typed in the address bar of firefox to change setting its something like confix : ??? | 06:15 |
| Johnny | anyone know a channel for phreaking? | 06:15 |
| itai-michaelson | FAJALOU, i think gparted can resize a logical partition | 06:15 |
| Tim | bderrly: so the install command looks online instead. | 06:15 |
| bderrly | Tim, hmm, i've not used the cdrom for apt after the initial install so i'm not sure | 06:15 |
| rww | kushalsejwal: it's about:config | 06:15 |
| acrousey | i was wondering if there was a way that i would be able to share directly between my mac an this computer | 06:15 |
| l0fls | phreaking? | 06:15 |
| Tim | bderrly: OK. | 06:15 |
| wbmj | kushalsejwal:about:config | 06:15 |
| l0fls | like phone phreaking? | 06:15 |
| kushalsejwal | bderrly: Nothing suggest me something to do , any sudo command to check that I havent messed any setting | 06:15 |
| bderrly | Tim, i'm curious if you're having network issues? | 06:15 |
| Tim | bderrly: Thanks for your help. | 06:15 |
| burnin | anyone have an bash script that will rsync only the packages for a single distribution, i.e. if I only want the packages out of the pool for hardy to be rsynced to a private mirror? | 06:15 |
| Tim | bderrly: Possibly. | 06:16 |
| kushalsejwal | rww: wbmj: thanks | 06:16 |
| bderrly | Tim, i just did an apt-get upgrade here in the states and it worked fine | 06:16 |
| Tim | Should I test it using 'pin'? | 06:16 |
| Tim | ping | 06:16 |
| acrousey | i have an ethernet hooked between the two of them (ubuntu comp and mac) and surprisingly, the ubuntu comp can run on the internet through airport on my mac (reverse tethering you could call it) | 06:16 |
| Tim | bderrly: I mean, how do I best test network? | 06:17 |
| acrousey | but i cannot share between the two of them | 06:17 |
| acrousey | *ethernet cable | 06:17 |
| kushalsejwal | bderrly: What is network.dns.disableIPv6 ???? I have it value "True"??? | 06:17 |
| bderrly | Tim, ping uk.archive.ubuntu.com | 06:17 |
| rww | acrousey: the "Windows network sharing service" it's talking about is samba. you can install it with sudo apt-get install samba, or your favorite GUI package manager | 06:17 |
| bderrly | kushalsejwal, it means don't use ipv6 for dns | 06:17 |
| bderrly | kushalsejwal, shouldn't be a problem | 06:18 |
| acrousey | rww: thanks, will try | 06:18 |
| wbmj | kushalsejwal: IPv6 isn't a real necessity | 06:18 |
| snarkster | ok fixed | 06:18 |
| Tim | bderrly: "unknown host". Does that mean I'm not able to access net? | 06:18 |
| bderrly | would seem so | 06:18 |
| DrDerek | How do I change the default browser for Pidigin, I want it to open up opera when clicking links, not firefox | 06:18 |
| bderrly | Tim, do you normally use wifi on your laptop? | 06:18 |
| bderrly | DrDerek, option in pidgin | 06:19 |
| bderrly | err | 06:19 |
| kushalsejwal | so shoule I left it value to true or change it to false??? | 06:19 |
| bderrly | actually | 06:19 |
| DysfunXionaL | lol | 06:19 |
| Tim | bderrly: Yes, i do. | 06:19 |
| Awesomedude_ | I can't get my internet working in ubuntu, I am using the latest version 8.04 (fresh install) and I can't connect to my network using my linksys wusb54g :( I connect the device and I got to the wireless icon and tell it to connect to my network and type in the correct wpa password but it wont connect | 06:19 |
| DrDerek | bderrly - I checked preferences already | 06:19 |
| wbmj | kushalsejwal: con leave it | 06:19 |
| kushalsejwal | okay | 06:19 |
| bderrly | default apps for gnome, System > Preferences > Preferred Applications | 06:19 |
| casemods | can anyone tell me why firefox opens up a notepad inside firefox when i try to download wine doors debian? | 06:20 |
| DrDerek | thanks | 06:20 |
| casemods | its like a bunch of chinese characters and shit | 06:20 |
| wbmj | DrDerek: just know that changing preferred is system wide | 06:20 |
| DrDerek | wbmj - yeah, Firefox 3 has been very screwy for me since I updated to Heron | 06:21 |
| bderrly | umm, per-user system-wide | 06:21 |
| ndf | what's the command in terminal to take a screenshot on a timer? | 06:21 |
| bderrly | import i think | 06:21 |
| DrDerek | wbmj - it keeps on crashing | 06:21 |
| Tim | bderrly: Looks like I'm screwed either way - for now.. | 06:21 |
| rww | ndf: I use the program scrot for that. sudo apt-get install scrot, then man scrot | 06:21 |
| Tim | bderrly: Thanks for help though. | 06:21 |
| wbmj | DrDerek: If you prefer FF Firefox-2 is in the repos | 06:21 |
| bderrly | ndf, sleep 10; import <options> | 06:21 |
| kushalsejwal | bderrly: I think I should ask my ISP to configue my broadband, earlier I used to get 80 KBps donwload speed now only 20 KBps .... may be thats the reason | 06:22 |
| bderrly | Tim, no worries, you can setup wifi from cli, a bit tougher, or plug in some ethernet cable :) | 06:22 |
| bderrly | kushalsejwal, maybe they're throttling you due to excessive torrent traffic? | 06:22 |
| Tim | bderrly: OK. Think I'd beter get some rest (or a coffee) before doing anything like that :) | 06:23 |
| itai-michaelson | casemods, where are trying to download it from? | 06:23 |
| kushalsejwal | bderrly: You know what..... you are absolutely correct I have really mistued my unlimited broadband speed :D | 06:23 |
| acrousey | rww: i'm in terminal now and it says that it couldn't find the package Samba | 06:23 |
| kushalsejwal | I have oversued it | 06:24 |
| bderrly | Tim, do both, but maybe in reverse order... | 06:24 |
| kushalsejwal | bderrly: I have downloaded more than 20 GB this month :D | 06:24 |
| Tim | bderrly: LOL | 06:24 |
| wbmj | acrousey:Samba is smb in repos | 06:24 |
| acrousey | oh | 06:25 |
| acrousey | that might help | 06:25 |
| casemods | http://www.wine-doors.org/wordpress/?page_id=3 | 06:25 |
| DysfunXionaL | Awesomedude_.:: try https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wi...esearch=Titles | If your using ndiswrapper make sure you are using a 32 bit windows driver on i386 hardy and a 64 bit driver on amd64. | 06:25 |
| rww | it is? adept sees a samba package in mine =/ | 06:25 |
| wbmj | casemods:right click on the download link and use save as | 06:25 |
| acrousey | rww: do you do samba or smb? | 06:25 |
| wbmj | smb | 06:25 |
| casemods | and then | 06:26 |
| acrousey | wbmj: nope | 06:26 |
| acrousey | couldn't find package | 06:26 |
| DysfunXionaL | what about VNC?? | 06:26 |
| acrousey | could it be because i'm using the alternative desktop? | 06:26 |
| DysfunXionaL | would that work | 06:26 |
| casemods | error: dependency is not satisfiable: wine | 06:27 |
| wbmj | acrousey:my mistake...it is samba in the repos | 06:27 |
| acrousey | *ubuntu's alternative | 06:27 |
| acrousey | oh | 06:27 |
| evilbug | issue - i want to try out fluxbox and i'm curious how i would completely remove xfce if i decide to stick with fluxbox. | 06:28 |
| itai-michaelson | casemods, probably means you need to install wine first | 06:28 |
| acrousey | wbmj: is it still "sudo apt-get install samba" that i need to use then? | 06:28 |
| wbmj | evilbug: sudo aptitude remove xubuntu-desktop | 06:28 |
| Stargazer | [Ubuntu 8.04] what would be a good program for "Virtual Machines" ? | 06:29 |
| bderrly | evilbug, sudo apt-get remove xfce OR sudo dpkg --purge xfce | 06:29 |
| casemods | how do i install wine? :| | 06:29 |
| wbmj | acrousey:yes | 06:29 |
| bderrly | casemods, sudo apt-get install wine | 06:29 |
| rww | acrousey: yeah, that /should/ do it. samba's in the main repository, which you should have | 06:29 |
| evilbug | bderrly- and that would completely remove every component? | 06:29 |
| kushalsejwal | bderrly: thanks buddy, Have a nice day :) | 06:29 |
| casemods | bderrly: sudo apt-get install wine ??? | 06:30 |
| itai-michaelson | casemods, you open a terminal and run the command sudo aptitude install wine | 06:30 |
| kushalsejwal | Bye #ubuntu | 06:30 |
| casemods | how do i open a terminal? | 06:30 |
| LogicalDash | casemods: Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal | 06:30 |
| Stargazer | [Ubuntu 8.04] what would be a good program for running/testing with "Virtual Machines" ? | 06:30 |
| LogicalDash | Stargazer: VirtualBox OSE | 06:30 |
| bderrly | evilbug, not sure, it'll remove xfce though ;) and that was the only requirement i saw in your statement | 06:30 |
| FAJALOU | Stargazer: virtualbox | 06:31 |
| FAJALOU | it's in the repos | 06:31 |
| wbmj | Stargazer: Vbox is easiest to use | 06:31 |
| rbd | anyone know if there's ubuntu/debian debs for the most recent versions of asterisk? I'm not finding much... might have to resort to using the .tar.gz | 06:31 |
| rbd | this would be for hardy, btw | 06:31 |
| rww | Stargazer: yup, virtualbox. it's in the repos as virtualbox-ose | 06:31 |
| LogicalDash | rbd: check getdeb.net | 06:31 |
| evilbug | bderrly- i'd prefer having everything removed. maybe what wbmj said. | 06:31 |
| casemods | bderrly: when it asks for my password, it wont let me enter it | 06:31 |
| bderrly | evilbug, did you install xubuntu or vanilla ubuntu? | 06:32 |
| evilbug | bderrly- xubuntu. | 06:32 |
| LogicalDash | casemods: If you're not seeing any ***** where you'd expect, that's just the normal way it works. It's listening, really. | 06:32 |
| bderrly | casemods, type away, the terminal doesn't echo anything when it wants a password | 06:32 |
| rww | casemods: even though nothing appears when you type, it is receiving your password. just type it (ignoring the lack of *), and press enter | 06:32 |
| casemods | thanks :) | 06:32 |
| bderrly | evilbug, ahh, ok, so then you probably do have xubuntu-desktop meta-package installed, you could do an aptitude remove xubuntu-desktop, but if you look at the deps for that package there are a ton, some you probably don't want to remove | 06:33 |
| casemods | "sudo apt-get install wine" | 06:33 |
| casemods | Reading package lists... Done | 06:33 |
| itai-michaelson | casemods, have a look here : http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Hardy | 06:33 |
| casemods | Building dependency tree... Done | 06:33 |
| casemods | Package wine is not available, but is referred to by another package. | 06:33 |
| casemods | This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or | 06:33 |
| casemods | is only available from another source | 06:33 |
| casemods | E: Package wine has no installation candidate | 06:33 |
| FloodBot2 | casemods: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation. | 06:33 |
| rbd | LogicalDash: thanks for the site, but no luck | 06:33 |
| evilbug | bderrly- so i might just want to install fluxbunt if i decide to completely remove xfce? | 06:33 |
| LogicalDash | casemods: Keep that terminal open, I'm looking up a command to fix that... | 06:34 |
| bderrly | evilbug, i would recommend that | 06:34 |
| evilbug | bderrly- thanks. | 06:34 |
| bderrly | evilbug, unless you're really crunched for hard disk space then it won't hurt to leave it | 06:34 |
| LogicalDash | casemods: see this page: http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb | 06:34 |
| LogicalDash | casemods: You're running Ubuntu Hardy btw | 06:35 |
| chalcedny | i've got a problem setting up my netgear router. i believe the router is 255.255.255.0 and my computer (ubuntu Hardy 8.4) is looking for 255.255.255.255 ? | 06:35 |
| casemods | whats that mean? | 06:35 |
| chalcedny | is that something i can call tech support back for, or something i need to set in my computer(s) ? | 06:35 |
| itai-michaelson | LogicalDash, these are development versions (in the wineHQ site) | 06:35 |
| LogicalDash | casemods: Ubuntu Hardy Heron is the name of your operating system | 06:35 |
| bderrly | chalcedny, 255.255.255.0 is your netmask more than likely, not the ip of the router | 06:35 |
| rww | chalcedny: Your router isn't 255.255.255.0. That's the netmask. Your router is probably something like 192.168.XXX.XXX | 06:35 |
| casemods | when i click the link that says "click this to install" it says "fire fox doesnt know how to handle because :apt: isnt associated | 06:35 |
| LogicalDash | itai-michaelson: Yeah, and that seems to be what they want people to use | 06:36 |
| bderrly | chalcedny, the ip of the router is probably 192.168.0.1 | 06:36 |
| rww | chalcedny: it's a computer setting, not a router problem | 06:36 |
| itai-michaelson | LogicalDash, don't you think its better he adds multiverse and installs wine from the repos>? | 06:36 |
| Amun | glitsj16: dunno. whenever i copy a encrypted dvd, it shows up as blocks of green and other mutilated colors. | 06:37 |
| itai-michaelson | casemods, did you install that ubuntu yourslef? | 06:37 |
| casemods | yes | 06:37 |
| itai-michaelson | casemods, when? | 06:37 |
| casemods | an hour ago | 06:37 |
| casemods | +/- | 06:37 |
| planet_x | anyone know how to enable compiz fusion/advanced desktop effects on the EEE PC 1000H? Been looking everywhere, any assistance greatly appreciated just keeps saying desktop effects cannot be enabled | 06:37 |
| LogicalDash | itai-michaelson: the WINE development versions present the same user interface and everything, they just have some experimental features that make (say) some installers work better | 06:37 |
| itai-michaelson | casemods, so you are probably running the latest version called "hardy" | 06:37 |
| casemods | its an old disc... | 06:38 |
| FAJALOU | planet_x: what is your graphics card? | 06:38 |
| itai-michaelson | casemods, oh..how old? | 06:38 |
| LogicalDash | casemods, ah, you should really run the latest version | 06:38 |
| wbmj | planet_x: doubt the EEE can handle compiz | 06:38 |
| planet_x | its the intel chip that comes with it a GMA.. i have read that it works for other people | 06:38 |
| planet_x | yes it can | 06:38 |

| itai-michaelson | casemods, what is the output of the command "lsb_release -a" | 06:39 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | shows Distro info | 06:39 |
| casemods | No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 6.06.2 LTS Release: 6.06 Codename: dapper | 06:40 |
| itai-michaelson | casemods, you are running an old version of ubuntu | 06:40 |
| itai-michaelson | called dapper | 06:40 |
| Vampy | casemods : i would suggest that you would be wiser to get teh newest version of ubuntu. major changes since the version your running | 06:41 |
| genii | itai-michaelson: Dapper is still supported here | 06:41 |
| Balian | #ubuntu.pl | 06:42 |
| itai-michaelson | genii, sure , but dont you think he better upgrade to hardy, considering he just installed? | 06:42 |
| mlLK | anyone else notice how much better linux handles torrents? | 06:42 |
| genii | itai-michaelson: If he plans on running dev versions for instance of wine, yes. | 06:42 |
| mlLK | like seriously. | 06:42 |
| Vampy | milk : that's cause there isnt the OS limitations like windows has. | 06:43 |
| itai-michaelson | genii, or using a webcam in skype.. | 06:43 |
| mlLK | it *actually* connects w/ all the peers | 06:43 |
| xynthpop | nice | 06:43 |
| ProN00b | mlLK, microsoft severely cripled windows networking tcp stack with sp2 (or was it sp1 already ?) | 06:43 |
| Vampy | sp2 Pro | 06:43 |
| itai-michaelson | casemods, we can help you install wine in your version of ubuntu, but i personaly suggest getting the latest version | 06:44 |
| Vampy | when they did the half connection update | 06:44 |
| p4_xxx | is bitttorrent secure? | 06:44 |
| mlLK | ProN00b, huh. so sp1 handles tcp better? | 06:44 |
| casemods | how can i get the latest? | 06:44 |
| mlLK | ProN00b, was it like a security patch? | 06:44 |
| LSD|Ninja | p4_xxx: not really, no | 06:44 |
| itai-michaelson | casemods, http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download | 06:44 |
| Vampy | milk : it was considered a security update but it was once again.. microsofts way to control its users | 06:45 |
| ProN00b | mlLK, well, it is not intentionally cripled in sp1... and it its security effect is dubious (it won't help you because when it works, you are already infected, it just makes worms spread slightly slower) | 06:45 |
| LSD|Ninja | ... | 06:45 |
| p4_xxx | the last time i use Bittorrent, my firewall show me a lot of ip's that w i was beeing connected too so i close it | 06:46 |
| ProN00b | mlLK, its against portscanning, it prevents any program from attempting to open more than 10 connection at once | 06:46 |
| itai-michaelson | casemods, btw why do you need winedoors? | 06:46 |
| ProN00b | p4_xxx, you fail at understanding stuff | 06:46 |
| LSD|Ninja | p4_xxx: you do realise that's how bittorrent works, right? | 06:46 |
| p4_xxx | yes i know | 06:46 |
| Vampy | the more ips the better and faster you download | 06:47 |
| p4_xxx | thats why i asked if it is secure | 06:47 |
| xynthpop | you could proxxycondom | 06:47 |
| ProN00b | it is, at least in the way that opening alot of connections to alot of ip's is | 06:47 |
| xynthpop | but that would slow down your rate | 06:47 |
| mlLK | ProN00b, thats crazy | 06:47 |
| Balian_ | #ubuntu-pl | 06:47 |
| mlLK | i just read on YC windows is coming out w/ some open-source OS | 06:48 |
| mlLK | for heavy-weight users | 06:48 |

| ProN00b | mlLK, thats complete bullshit | 06:48 |

| mlLK | ProN00b, ya not exactly open-source | 06:49 |
| p4_xxx | so is there any posibility that a person conected to your computer can access ur desktop and get another files? i dont know much about torrent, i read info and use it just 2 times | 06:50 |
| mlLK | ProN00b, it has an open-source vibe tho | 06:50 |
| mlLK | w/ package-management and all | 06:50 |
| ProN00b | mlLK, well, you know how microsoft does stuff, embrace extend extinguish | 06:51 |
| Vampy | ProNoob : no doubt | 06:51 |
| mlLK | ProN00b, they're all about entropy | 06:51 |
| acrousey | is there a way to share files between two computers without the internet? | 06:51 |
| ProN00b | lul whut | 06:51 |
| Vampy | lan shares | 06:51 |
| mlLK | ProN00b, most corporations are; at least in america | 06:51 |

| p4_xxx | home network? | 06:52 |
| acrousey | that's what i'm thinking | 06:52 |
| Vampy | what os's acrousey | 06:52 |
| acrousey | i have an ethernet cable hooked up between the two of them | 06:52 |
| doctorStrangePHD | Yeahh.... so how long does it take to set up "evolution common" in a hardy upgrade? | 06:52 |
| acrousey | Mac OSX and ubuntu | 06:52 |
| Vampy | which is older | 06:53 |
| ProN00b | old computer is running what ? | 06:53 |
| ProN00b | and which osx ? | 06:53 |
| p4_xxx | i think u also need a router, or a crossover cable | 06:53 |
| acrousey | mac is newer and i use tiger | 06:53 |
| doctorStrangePHD | whois doctorstrangePHD | 06:53 |
| Stargazer | For Virtualbox-ose which module do i get if i have Linux-image-generic 2.6.24 ? | 06:54 |
| acrousey | or i could just spend some money and make the older computer wireless | 06:54 |
| Vampy | you transfering from the ubuntu to the mac? | 06:54 |
| acrousey | how much would that cost? | 06:54 |
| ProN00b | acrousey, you could install samba on the ubuntu, or a ftp, i think you might be able to make a samba share by just right klicking a folder... | 06:54 |
| acrousey | vampy: other way around, i hope | 06:54 |
| doctorStrangePHD | q | 06:54 |
| acrousey | pron00b: yeah, but i have to download something | 06:54 |
| ProN00b | acrousey, oh, so you mean the ubuntu computer doesn't have internet ? | 06:55 |
| Vampy | acrousey : you could go wireless. but you prolly lookin in the range of $70 - 100 or more in cash | 06:55 |
| acrousey | i'm in my room now and using my mac laptop | 06:55 |
| acrousey | yeah | 06:55 |
| ProN00b | acrousey, can't you share internet connection from the mac ? | 06:55 |
| acrousey | it can... but i just moved it into my room | 06:55 |
| LSD|Ninja | acrousey: enable Windows sharing on the Mac side, Ubuntu should have the SMB client without needing the samba server | 06:55 |
| acrousey | it's not working | 06:55 |
| acrousey | lsdninja: how would i do that? | 06:56 |
| p4_xxx | did u edit the smb.conf in the ubuntu machine? | 06:56 |
| acrousey | p4_xxx: no | 06:56 |
| LSD|Ninja | p4_xxx: there's no samba server on ubuntu by default afaik, you have to install it after the face | 06:56 |

| acrousey | i did that | 06:58 |
| acrousey | let's see how it works | 06:58 |

| FAJALOU | my friend has a broadcom card and i guess it is working, but he cannot connect to any wireless networks... any thoughts? | 06:59 |
| FAJALOU | !hi | raj_ | 07:00 |
| ubottu | raj_: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 07:00 |
| wbmj | FAJALOU: Is network-manager set to roaming | 07:00 |
| ProN00b | FAJALOU, distance too high, networks have keys he doesn't | 07:00 |
| FAJALOU | wbmj, network-manager.... is that networks in system>administration/ | 07:00 |
| kindofabuzz | when doing a cp /there/foo /here/foo, is there coomand to replace /here/foo if already in that dir? did that make sense? | 07:01 |
| wbmj | FAJALOU: yes | 07:01 |
| === VERA_AN is now known as CwE_17LonELyhOLi | ||
| genii | kindofabuzz: The default behaviour is to overwrite | 07:01 |
| acrousey | pron00b: I'm assuming that they are because when i go into ubuntu's networking i see it under hosts | 07:01 |
| morbyt1 | has anybody an idea, why sound in flash videos is not working? other sound works flawlessly | 07:01 |
| FAJALOU | wbmj: yes it is... | 07:01 |
| kindofabuzz | genii: so no need to put /here/foo if already in the dir you want the copied file in? | 07:02 |
| Bogus8 | I need to temp mount an nfs (manual mount) ... I know how and can do it with sudo but then it's owned by root and I can't copy files into it... I'm pretty sure exports is correct I think it's the mount part | 07:02 |
| wbmj | FAJALOU: does he see networks when clicking the netwok-manager applet | 07:02 |
| ProN00b | acrousey, oh, thats quite good, with windows sharing enabled on the mac you should be able to find the shared mac folders there then | 07:02 |
| Bogus8 | with samba I have to mount and set uid and gid ...shouldn't I hav eto do the same with nfs? | 07:02 |
| genii | kindofabuzz: If you're in the dir use: cp /from/wherever . | 07:02 |
| FAJALOU | wbmj: he doesn't see anything... | 07:03 |
| genii | kindofabuzz: the "." means "here" | 07:03 |
| kindofabuzz | genii: thanks buddie | 07:03 |
| genii | kindofabuzz: np | 07:03 |
| wbmj | FAJALOU: there is no networks listed at all | 07:03 |
| ProN00b | Bogus8, samba is windows tech, i asume you need to set uid and gid because they don't fully exist on the target system and or ain't transfered, that will not likely be the case with nfs which has not been designed with windows in mind | 07:03 |
| FAJALOU | network-manager-applet; where is that, is it up at the top, with the two computer? | 07:03 |
| FAJALOU | *computers | 07:03 |
| wbmj | FAJALOU: next to the clock | 07:04 |
| Bogus8 | ProN00b: ok, but when I do an ls -l on my freshly mounted dir it's owned by root with no write perms to anyone else | 07:04 |
| FAJALOU | Bogus8: sudo chown <username> <mountpoint of ntfs> | 07:04 |
| acrousey | pron00b: is there any better way then mine to diagnose if the two computers are actually connected? | 07:04 |
| FAJALOU | or have you tried using ntfs-3g | 07:04 |
| Bogus8 | FAJALOU: not NTFS but NFS | 07:04 |
| ProN00b | acrousey, yes lower level ones, but your own shows a clear connection so those are not needed | 07:05 |
| FAJALOU | wbmj: none show up. | 07:05 |
| acrousey | well, i was seeing stuff in hosts | 07:05 |
| ProN00b | that means the network connection works | 07:05 |
| wbmj | FAJALOU: is the computer hardwired right now | 07:05 |
| acrousey | in networking on Ubuntu | 07:06 |
| FAJALOU | wbmj: no | 07:06 |

| FAJALOU | wbmj: yes they show up. | 07:07 |
| ProN00b | Bogus8, well, a folder doesn't change permissions because you mount something to it, but its contents then have the perms of the remote stuff | 07:07 |
| Bogus8 | kindofabuzz: yes, that is what I have done... but when you sudo mount it mounts it as root and regular users don't have perms to write to it... that is my problem | 07:07 |
| wbmj | FAJALOU: probably no good signals nearby | 07:08 |
| ProN00b | chalcedny, actually that should be detected automatically by default | 07:08 |
| FAJALOU | wbmj: there is one downstairs for him | 07:08 |
| Bogus8 | ProN00b: doh! I did mkdir as root... not sure how or why.. probably habit of typing sudo :( | 07:08 |
| FAJALOU | wbmj: in iwconfig there is wmaster0 and wlan0, | 07:08 |
| FAJALOU | only wlan0 is showing it enabled though. | 07:09 |
| ProN00b | chalcedny, if not go to network interface config and set to static config and enter info manually | 07:09 |
| dstrbdfrk | anyone in here help with backtrack3?????? | 07:10 |
| FAJALOU | wbmj: ifconfig shows neither wlan0 or wmaster0 | 07:10 |
| Bogus8 | ProN00b: actually I guess it's an issue with my fstab... I set them up then mounted with -a thinking it would mount it properly... guess I got something screwy (the dir I'm sharing is a drive) | 07:10 |
| msandbu | FAJALOU: try iwconfig | 07:10 |
| chalcedny | ProN00b i need to do something, both of my ubuntu boxes aren't seeing it yet | 07:11 |
| FAJALOU | msandbu: iwconfig shows stuff, but nothing will connect, apparently | 07:11 |
| wbmj | FAJALOU: since the wireless device is listed the problem is acquiring the router signal......if no networks are available when you left click the nm-applet then there is no signal | 07:11 |

| wbmj | ProNOOB: passwords aren't need to find a wireless connection....only to use one | 07:15 |
| ProN00b | wbmj, i thought he said he could find them just not connect | 07:16 |
| albech | anyone else having problems with tolkien.freenode.net?? | 07:16 |
| wbmj | ProNOOB: no the routers don't show up in nm-applet | 07:16 |
| crdlb | Xptical: because that's their new stuff | 07:17 |
| Xptical | thanks for the help guys. | 07:17 |
| solexious | [Q]I keeps getting this error when installing or upgrading packages, why and how can i fix? "E: python-setuptools: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1" | 07:17 |
| ProN00b | Bogus8, you mean the permissions of files and subdirs of that did you mounted a nfs share on don't allow your current user to write ? | 07:17 |
| FAJALOU | wbmj: b/c it's not bc43xx ,should he have to use ndiswrapper? | 07:17 |
| Bogus8 | ProN00b: I think my NFS problem is due to a mounting problem on the "server" | 07:17 |
| ProN00b | Bogus8, can you access the files as root ? | 07:17 |
| Bogus8 | ProN00b: when I mount the drive to the users dir it changes the perms to root even though I am mounting with mount -a and it's set up right in fstab | 07:18 |
| wbmj | FAJALOU: I don't think so....otherwise he wouldn't have a wireless entry in Network | 07:18 |
| FAJALOU | wbmj: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=845067 | 07:18 |
| ProN00b | Bogus8, again, can you access the mounted files as root ? | 07:19 |
| Bogus8 | ProN00b: yes | 07:19 |
| ProN00b | Bogus8, as i said, nfs mirrors the privileges of the remote system on your local one, so if they are only root accessible or accessible for a uid/gid that doesn't exist on your machine only root will be able to access them there too | 07:20 |
| Bogus8 | ProN00b: and as I said, I realized my problem isn't on the client of the nfs it's on the server... the mounting of the actual drive is screwed up | 07:20 |
| theRealBall | so what's the next best filesystem? | 07:20 |
| Tm_T | !best | theRealBall | 07:20 |
| ubottu | theRealBall: 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. | 07:20 |
| FAJALOU | wbmj: it does not show up in restricted drivers. | 07:21 |
| ProN00b | theRealBall, there isn't one unfortunately | 07:21 |
| Bogus8 | ProN00b: when I mount my physical drive using "mount -a" it's still mounting it as root (on the SERVER) forget NFS now as I see that's not the problem | 07:21 |
| ProN00b | kek, Bogus8, dude... | 07:21 |
| wbmj | FAJALOU: Then he may need ndiswrapper | 07:21 |
| theRealBall | ubottu: if you really do care i'm not a troll :p just curious cuz i've been a using opensolaris for a while now that's all | 07:22 |
| ubottu | theRealBall: Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) (1) | 07:22 |
| FAJALOU | wbmj: what about fwcutter | 07:22 |
| ProN00b | man, i should write a filesystem, it would be the absolutely best one of them all | 07:22 |
| wbmj | FAJALOU: Thought I find NDISGTK is easier to use | 07:22 |
| Bogus8 | ProN00b: I am using the options for my drive in fstab as "defaults,errors=remount-ro" from there I do a mount -a (just as I have before | 07:22 |
| theRealBall | lool | 07:22 |
| cwillu | !info b43-fwcutter | 07:22 |
| FAJALOU | but he can't get on the inet; therefore no drivers for it. | 07:22 |
| ubottu | b43-fwcutter (source: b43-fwcutter): Utility for extracting Broadcom 43xx firmware. In component main, is optional. Version 1:011-1 (hardy), package size 15 kB, installed size 100 kB | 07:22 |
| Bogus8 | ProN00b: but it ends up mounting the drive as root | 07:22 |
| === eitch0000 is now known as eitch_busguy | ||
| ProN00b | Bogus8, you make no sense, permissions are stored on a per file base... | 07:23 |

| Bogus8 | ProN00b: ok... I created a dir called "raid" in my users home dir. it was created and is owned by that user. Then I mount my raid to it via puting the line in fstab and using sudo mount -a ... at this point the perms change like root owns it since it mounted it | 07:25 |
| AgentK | Can anybody recommend good resources for linux/ubuntu sysadmins ie network services, security stuff? | 07:25 |
| FAJALOU | wbmj: make sure it's _not_ listed? | 07:25 |
| cwillu | Bogus8, the filesystem itself needs to be chmod/chown'd | 07:25 |
| cwillu | Bogus8, i.e., mount it, and _then_ set the permissions | 07:25 |
| wbmj | FAJALOU: yes | 07:25 |
| FAJALOU | wbmj ok. | 07:25 |
| ProN00b | Bogus8, ls -lah|grep raid in home dir before and after mount | 07:26 |
| Balian | #ubuntu-pl | 07:26 |
| Bogus8 | cwillu: I think I get it... because I mkfs.ext3 as root it set it as root | 07:26 |
| ProN00b | Bogus8, also ls -lah raid after mount | 07:26 |
| cwillu | Bogus8, well, more like root ownership is just the default | 07:26 |
| Bogus8 | ProN00b: yes, and that is when it changes from my user to root (after sudo mount -a) | 07:26 |
| MaxHeadroom | Hello, anybody here use toonel proxy? | 07:26 |
| Bogus8 | cwillu: I'll test that real quick and make sure | 07:27 |
| FAJALOU | wbmj: what should he be looking for? | 07:27 |
| egoleo | hey guys how do i set time zone on ubuntu plse using terminal | 07:27 |
| wbmj | auto lo iface lo inet loopback | 07:27 |
| ProN00b | Bogus8, i still don't believe folders change ownership because you mount something to them | 07:27 |
| FAJALOU | wbmj: that liine is there. | 07:27 |
| cwillu | ProN00b, yes, they do | 07:28 |
| kindofabuzz | can i burn a cd iso to a DVD? will it work the same? i'm out of cd's =( | 07:28 |
| ProN00b | cwillu, really ? | 07:28 |
| cwillu | ProN00b, if the root of the mount has different permissions on it, then that's what the mount point gets | 07:28 |
| Bogus8 | ProN00b: it's because I never chowned that file system... it's brand new | 07:28 |
| Bogus8 | cwillu: you were correct | 07:28 |
| FAJALOU | wbmj: PM? | 07:28 |
| msandbu | kindofabuzz: yes it will | 07:28 |
| wbmj | FAJALOU:ok | 07:28 |
| msandbu | kindofabuzz: just did the same for about 5 min ago ^^ | 07:29 |
| Bogus8 | ProN00b: thanks for your attempts, it really is appreciated... it led me to stop barking up the wrong tree of NFS | 07:29 |
| kindofabuzz | msandbu: cool thanks | 07:29 |
| cwillu | ProN00b, just think of the permissions as being set on the '.' entry, rather than the named entry that points to it | 07:29 |
| Bogus8 | cwillu: thanks for pointing out my oversight on the newly created filesystem perms (I won't forget that one again ;) ) | 07:29 |
| cwillu | i.e., chown /foo/bar/baz/. | 07:29 |
| ProN00b | cwillu, so a ls in the subdir of the mount wouldn't change ? | 07:29 |
| cwillu | ? | 07:29 |
| cwillu | if you're in /mnt, and do an ls -l, you'll see whatever permissions are on /mnt in the root filesystem | 07:30 |
| cwillu | if you then mount something on /mnt, then you'll see whatever permissions are on / in _that_ filesystem | 07:30 |
| ProN00b | so those will change if i unmount and mount and the dirs perms are different from the fs root node ? | 07:30 |
| cwillu | yes | 07:30 |
| ProN00b | and how do i change the fs perms, just chmod it (sda) while its mounted ? | 07:31 |
| cwillu | ProN00b, one you cd into a mount point, you're not in the original filesystem any more, and always the '.' entry that matters | 07:31 |
| Ayabara | hey. I tried installing the latest nvidia driver on ubuntu 8.04, and now I'm stuck in low graphics mode... I have tried doing an uninstall of the driver and restore of the xorg.conf.backup, but still in low graphics. | 07:31 |

| Ayabara | ProN00b: yes | 07:33 |
| ProN00b | bad idea | 07:33 |
| Ayabara | ProN00b: seems so :) | 07:33 |
| happihippo_ | anyone here running netatalk | 07:34 |
| ProN00b | Ayabara, i don't know the name of the nvidia driver apt package, but i suggest searching for it in synaptic/aptitude/apt-get and reinstalling it | 07:34 |

| Ayabara | ProN00b: didn't work. any other suggestions? | 07:40 |
| Ayabara | is envy for installing graphics drivers frowned upon | 07:42 |
| ph8 | not at all | 07:42 |
| ph8 | best way for some imo | 07:42 |
| Ayabara | ph8: I seem to be one of those :/ | 07:43 |
| ph8 | I mean yes you could install all the packages, tweak everything the right way yourself following a long complicated howto | 07:43 |
| ph8 | or you could just run the envy install command | 07:43 |
| sajjad | hi | 07:43 |
| ph8 | things like this can be frowned upon 'because they dont' teach users how things work' - but with things like nvidia driver install (which I use envy-ng for) it's a lifesaver | 07:43 |
| SNuxoll | envy-ng isn't automatix, that's why it's not frowned upon | 07:44 |
| SNuxoll | it doesn't do stupid stuff that breaks your system | 07:44 |
| ph8 | heh | 07:45 |
| lunch | i think firefox 3 is buggy on 8.04.1 | 07:45 |
| Ayabara | ph8: ok. I installed the latest driver from the nvidia page and got stuck in low graphics. Uninstalled, restored xorg.conf, reinstalled nvidia-packages and rebooted, but am still in low graphics. Any chance of envy being able to save me? | 07:45 |
| Flannel | SNuxoll: its not quite as cut and dry as "its not automatix", since envy had some problems | 07:45 |

| casemods | PrivateRolf: what internet do you have for the phone? | 07:47 |
| ph8 | BTW envy installs the proprietary nvidia binary drivers, which is why it's not shipped by default - there are some open nvidia drivers that come with ubuntu but they're not as good(tm) | 07:47 |
| twb | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats just has text. | 07:48 |
| Flannel | SNuxoll: If you're scrolling through a lot of descriptions trying to determine which package of a few you'd like to try, its easier than apt-cache | 07:48 |
| twb | I'm sure I've seen the page before. | 07:48 |
| twb | I'm not interested in debating the merits of GUIs vs. CLIs. | 07:48 |
| Flannel | ph8: there is an official way of installing said binary drivers too. Restricted Drivers Manager | 07:48 |

| jovo | when i tried to install ubuntu onto a pc with windows XP already installed, installation went fine, but ubuntu didn't load after rebooting it | 07:49 |
| ph8 | Flannel: WIth the open drivers? | 07:49 |
| ph8 | why does envy exist otherwise? | 07:49 |
| ph8 | i've never been able to install any other way | 07:49 |
| Flannel | ph8: No. It installs closed drivers. | 07:49 |
| Bloodhound | @ jovo is grub loading? | 07:50 |
| jovo | ?? i have no idea what that means | 07:50 |
| Bloodhound | or just booting to windows? | 07:50 |
| Bloodhound | oh | 07:50 |
| jovo | booting to anything | 07:50 |
| jovo | i had a blank screen, and i waited like 15 minutes and nothing happened | 07:50 |

| Bloodhound | hmm | 07:50 |
| Bloodhound | are you able to go into the bios? | 07:51 |

| PrivateRol1 | Should I disable the gnome network manager or something? | 07:56 |
| Bloodhound | can anyone help me with setting up a ftp server at ubuntu =) | 07:57 |
| casemods | its probably because you have the limited data plan for tmobile | 07:57 |
| Bloodhound | just in harde no server edition =) | 07:57 |
| Flannel | Bloodhound: It's the same instructions. But first, what will you be doing with said ftp server? | 07:57 |
| Bloodhound | share files over the ftp protocol | 07:58 |
| Flannel | Bloodhound: Right, but to yourself? or what? | 07:58 |
| PrivateRol1 | Well I can get Epiphany to show ERROR $CODE$ or something like that. | 07:58 |
| PrivateRol1 | I can get DNS servers and an IP address. | 07:58 |
| Bloodhound | to some ppl i want to, like acceses with passwords | 07:58 |
| Bloodhound | @ windows i used bulletproof ftp, | 07:58 |
| Ayabara | ph8: envyng got me back where I belong. thanks :D | 07:58 |
| morbyt1 | hardy uses pulseaudio as default. does this mean, any program with any sound-interface plays through pulse? or may they bypass pulse and play directly on alsa or oss? | 07:58 |
| Flannel | Bloodhound: since, if its just for your own use/people you know, ther's a more secure/robust (and easier to set up) method. sftp | 07:58 |
| jalonso | hello everyone | 07:59 |
| Flannel | Bloodhound: sftp is as easy as installing openssh-server... and, then you're done. | 07:59 |
| jalonso | I can't access my "Places" | 07:59 |
| Bloodhound | oke that sounds cool | 07:59 |
| Bloodhound | but am i able to set passwords, and what do you need to connect to the server? | 07:59 |
| jalonso | it says no default action has been associated with this place | 07:59 |
| jalonso | any ideas on what i can do? | 08:00 |
| Flannel | Bloodhound: it will use regular user accounts, so create users for your friends (through users and groups) | 08:00 |
| Flannel | Bloodhound: To connect, you use any sftp client. Almost any graphical FTP client can do sftp. Filezilla is one (which works in both Linux and Windows) | 08:00 |
| Bloodhound | Flannel, oke =) sounds great how to get it? with synaptec? | 08:00 |
| Flannel | Bloodhound: yeah, install "openssh-server" | 08:00 |
| Flannel | Bloodhound: And then you just need to make sure you forward port 22 on your router to your computer. | 08:01 |
| Bloodhound | yeah, | 08:01 |
| Bloodhound | but that is openssh server | 08:02 |
| Bloodhound | not sftp? | 08:02 |
| Bloodhound | or am i stupid now =) | 08:02 |
| Flannel | Bloodhound: Right. it does both. ssh and sftp (and scp) | 08:02 |
| Flannel | Bloodhound: sftp (and scp) are done through ssh, basically. | 08:02 |
| Bloodhound | oke, now its clear =) | 08:02 |
| Bloodhound | ok i have it | 08:03 |
| jalonso | I love Windows | 08:03 |
| Bloodhound | Flannel, how do i set it up? | 08:03 |
| alexbobp | jalonso: :P | 08:03 |
| Bloodhound | like wich folders i want to share, | 08:03 |
| chalcedony | Flannel i'm trying to connect my ubuntu hardy box to the new router. dhclient gives: "No working leases in persistent database -- sleeping -- i'm not sure if the response i'm getting with ifconfig is what i got when it worked. what else can i do ? | 08:04 |
| jalonso | alexbobp: ok now that I got your attention, can I get some help :) ? | 08:04 |
| chalcedony | jalonso ;) | 08:04 |
| alexbobp | jalonso: don't ask to ask | 08:04 |
| jalonso | I already asked but noone listened :( | 08:04 |
| chalcedony | alexbobp question i wrote to flannel | 08:05 |
| Flannel | Bloodhound: That'll be through regular folder permissions. Basically, create their users, and if you want to share with them, add everyone to some new group, make a new folder, make it owned by that group, etc. (actually, theres a hundred ways to set this up, just remember, its through regular permissions) | 08:05 |
| casemods | anybody know how to install wine? | 08:05 |
| Bloodhound | oke | 08:05 |
| jalonso | alexbobp: ok, why cant I access "Places"? | 08:05 |
| Bloodhound | so if i login with my own name, i can access all files on my computer? =) | 08:05 |
| alexbobp | jalonso: what's "places"? | 08:05 |
| Flannel | casemods: sudo apt-get install wine also, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine | 08:05 |
| Flannel | Bloodhound: yeah | 08:05 |
| alexbobp | casemods: the wine website has a repo you can add | 08:05 |
| Bloodhound | ah | 08:05 |
| alexbobp | casemods: and the normal repos have an outdated version | 08:06 |
| Flannel | Bloodhound: well, all of *your* files | 08:06 |
| Bloodhound | so only in the home folder =) | 08:06 |
| Flannel | Bloodhound: well, you can view files outside of the home folder from your regular account | 08:06 |
| jalonso | alexbobp: it's the menu up on top on the panel next to Accessories and before "system" | 08:06 |
| alexbobp | chalcedony: I don't know what that message means, sorry | 08:06 |
| Flannel | Bloodhound: Basically, open up nautilus, everything you can browse to from there, you'll be able to browse through with sftp. | 08:06 |
| === freqk is now known as freqk|away | ||
| Bloodhound | hmm | 08:06 |
| alexbobp | jalonso: what is it supposed to do, and what do you mean you can't access it? | 08:07 |
| Bloodhound | isn't that a security risk? | 08:07 |
| chalcedony | alexbobp please read the question i wrote to Flannel, he seems to be busy | 08:07 |
| Flannel | chalcedony: is this wifi or ethernet? | 08:07 |
| jalonso | alexbobp: it says that no default action has been associated with it, if I click it the drop down menu is supposed to open up my home directory | 08:07 |
| alexbobp | jalonso: you probably need to go to your filetype associations and set the default viewer for directories | 08:08 |
| jalonso | alexbobp: Oh, where is that at? | 08:08 |
| alexbobp | jalonso: I dunno, it's been a while since I used a graphical file browser, but check in the control panel | 08:09 |
| chalcedony | Flannel ethernet. | 08:09 |
| Flannel | Bloodhound: I don't know if I'd call it a security risk. But, there's the potential for a security risk I guess, sure. If you have strong passwords you'll be fine. If you're worried about brute force, you might want to look into something like DenyHosts, that'll lock someone out after they fail logging in X times. | 08:09 |
| alexbobp | jalonso: you might also be able to set it by right-clicking a folder and hitting properties | 08:09 |
| Flannel | chalcedony: Do you know your router is doing DHCP? Try setting up a static IP address, that might fix it | 08:09 |
| jalonso | alexbobp: good enough, I'll try both those things. Thanks for all the help | 08:10 |
| Bloodhound | oke =) | 08:10 |
| alexbobp | jalonso: good luck | 08:10 |
| Bloodhound | thanks! Flannel =) | 08:10 |
| jalonso | alexbobp: thanks again! | 08:10 |

| Bloodhound | oke will look at that =) | 08:12 |
| Flannel | Bloodhound: I mean, sure, technically anyone can log in as you (assuming they get your password) and do whatever. Installing SSH is by definition more dangerous than not. | 08:12 |
| chalcedony | Flannel the router is doing dhcp. that's not supposed to affect it? | 08:12 |
| Flannel | Bloodhound: I don't want to mislead you | 08:12 |
| blimey85 | could someone tell me how to use websvn? I installed it and did the configure during the install, but now what? I have svn available at svn.domain but how do I setup websvn to actually use it now? | 08:12 |

| HermenL | join #ubuntu-offtopic | 08:19 |
| Tim | I tried apt-cdrom -d /media/cdrom add | 08:19 |

| Tim | I tried to use Hardy CD But the CD-ROM unmounts and asks for the rest of CDs in set (?) | 08:20 |
| Flannel | Tim: or a floppy or whatnot. http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy-updates/gdm | 08:20 |
| p4_xxx | is there another firewall software for ubuntu? im using Firestarter. | 08:20 |
| Flannel | Tim: Is there no internet on this machine at all, ever? | 08:21 |
| Tim | Flannel: Cool. I'll prob. be back to see how to get the OSB srive accessed from CLI @) | 08:21 |
| blimey85 | ok, my websvn install points to my regular svn install and I can't see anyway to get a diff of two files... very frustrating! | 08:21 |
| blimey85 | Anyone have a link to how to set this thing up? | 08:21 |
| Flannel | Tim: No, wait. If you're not ever connected, that's not how you want to solve it. | 08:21 |
| Tim | Flannel: OK. | 08:21 |
| Tim | Flannel: Yes, had wifi before. | 08:21 |
| Flannel | Tim: So, its just now that gdm is gone you don't have wifi? | 08:21 |
| Tim | Flannel: I mean before gdm deleted. | 08:22 |
| Tim | Flannel: Yes. | 08:22 |

| devedse | wth | 08:24 |
| devedse | this is not ubuntu NL? | 08:24 |
| Flannel | devedse: nope, this is #ubuntu | 08:24 |
| Zeroyez | trying to stop the gnome bottom toolbar from covering up the windows xp toolbar :/ | 08:24 |
| happihippo_ | what about vbox seamless? | 08:24 |
| happihippo_ | it doesn't work very good (the background gets kinda messed up) | 08:25 |
| blimey85 | so I'm guessing nobody here uses websvn... hmm.... | 08:25 |
| Zeroyez | i was wondering if it's possible to make the xp taskbar move up like 24 or so pixels so i can still see my gnome toolbar | 08:25 |
| Zeroyez | hey i said that to the vbox channel too they said they had no idea whta i was talking about lol | 08:25 |
| Zeroyez | least i'm not the only one with the background messing up problem | 08:25 |
| happihippo_ | yeah, I think you can drag the xp toolbar and make it double height | 08:26 |
| morbyt1 | does this paste mean, that i am able to use pulse? http://paste.ubuntu.com/32500/ | 08:26 |
| === [1]Coded1 is now known as Coded1 | ||

| Zeroyez | thanks | 08:27 |
| happihippo_ | np | 08:27 |
| happihippo_ | I think the background issue is a little better if you set it to no wallpaper in xp | 08:27 |
| === SoulSlayer is now known as anewbie | ||
| Zeroyez | yeah, altho the doubling the toolbar thing does get annoying when you click it and then it covers your gnome bar | 08:28 |

| Flannel | Zeroyez: move it to the left/right? | 08:28 |
| === mike_ is now known as Guest10015 | ||
| Zeroyez | i'm not skilled enough to live with that kind of movement | 08:28 |
| happihippo_ | On my desktop, I got rid of the bottom task bar, and moved the task switcher up to the top menu bar | 08:29 |
| === unaffiliate is now known as un\a\ffiliate | ||
| Zeroyez | oh you can do that? | 08:29 |
| Adremelech | yes | 08:29 |
| Zeroyez | aha figured it out already | 08:30 |
| happihippo_ | and you don't need the workspace switcher applet, just use compiz, much more whiz bang anyways | 08:31 |
| Zeroyez | and now this channel reads my mind... | 08:31 |
| Zeroyez | gets more convenient every time i look at it :) | 08:31 |
| glitsj16 | morbyt1: you need to add yourself (and any other users you want to use pulse) to the pulse, pulse-access and pulse-rt groups .. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PulseAudio has some more usefull info on how to configure pulseaudio if you haven't seen that already | 08:32 |

| moDumass | roe_ this is the error i get http://www.pastebin.org/59714 | 08:43 |
| high-freq | glits: ya | 08:43 |
| happihippo | using the intergrated graphics? | 08:44 |
| roe_ | moDumass, that is a non-critical warning | 08:44 |
| high-freq | glitsj16, openmotif-2.3.0 is what i installed..and still got the dir | 08:44 |
| Zeroyez | all graphics cards, it's just the motherboard is...weird | 08:44 |
| glitsj16 | high-freq: okay, cd into it and run "sudo make uninstall" | 08:44 |
| moDumass | roe_ thats a good thing, however im guessing it is running but i cant access it | 08:44 |
| high-freq | kk thats right | 08:44 |
| high-freq | forgot the sudo hehe | 08:44 |
| roe_ | ps aux |grep apache | 08:44 |
| roe_ | or nmap localhost | 08:45 |
| roe_ | is port 80 open? | 08:45 |
| lihoo | qq for linux is available now~~ | 08:45 |
| happihippo | I haven't had much of a problem and I have quite a few motherboards, though I don't have the same one you have. | 08:46 |
| roe_ | moDumass, I have to go to bet, it is approaching 4am here, you will probably have more luck in #apache, as this issue is not an ubuntu one | 08:46 |
| moDumass | thanks roe_ | 08:46 |
| moDumass | youve been awesome | 08:47 |
| Zeroyez | so i don't suppose i can take ~28 pixels off the desktop workspace height? | 08:47 |
| glitsj16 | high-freq: you might wanna check out a package called checkinstall .. basically what it does is replace the 'make install' for you (you just replace that by sudo checkinstal after a regular make) and it produces an entry into apt so you can easily uninstall things you compiled later on even when you ditched the compile dir .. | 08:47 |
| Zeroyez | so my apps don't maximize underneath the xp toolbar | 08:48 |
| * genii hands marmelaati a coffee | 08:48 | |
| happihippo | is your xp toolbar locked? | 08:49 |
| Zeroyez | yeah | 08:49 |

| glitsj16 | high-freq: only a suggestion :) .. any errors from make ? | 08:52 |
| high-freq | installing Xlt | 08:52 |
| high-freq | trying to get my cellphone tethered in ubuntu and is't working as proposed lol | 08:52 |
| high-freq | Xlt i got the latest cvs version so now i'm gonna try to d/l the actual file and if that doesn't work then downgrade a bit on xlt | 08:53 |
| happihippo | I'll have to check my virtualbox setup. I actually gave up on running seamless mode. Hang on a minute | 08:54 |
| glitsj16 | high-freq: okay, sound strategy lol | 08:54 |
| high-freq | hhe hope works | 08:54 |
| SleepyThor | could anything explain why Ubuntu freezing might be resulted from CCMP: decrypt failed? | 08:55 |
| happihippo | when I maximize xp apps, they don't cover my taskbars. Are your ubuntu taskbars locked as well? | 08:56 |
| xenos76 | Can someone tell me how I can remove all the files for the MySQL server and the server itself on my computer? | 08:56 |
| xenos76 | I don't think so | 08:56 |
| cwillu | SleepyThor you aren't using encrypted swap or drives are you? | 08:56 |
| cwillu | xenos76, synaptic, right click, and hit complete-remove. You'll probably have to poke through the dependencies and make sure they're removed as well | 08:57 |
| ikonia | xenos76: use synaptic and the "remove all files" option or apt-get purge mysql-server | 08:57 |
| happihippo | the mySQL database file is located in /var/lib/mysql | 08:58 |

| cwillu | notabene, sure | 09:02 |
| notabene | just using apt? | 09:02 |
| ikonia | cwillu: I know, but I'm asking why 64bit desktop was not used as the server kernel has other limitations against the desktop | 09:02 |
| notabene | ikonia, what limitiations does server have against desktop? | 09:03 |
| cwillu | notabene, are you using a 64 bit computer? | 09:03 |
| genii | cwillu: Incidentally linux-server or ubuntu-server is not a package. LAMP needs tasksel | 09:03 |
| happihippo | notabene, does your board support 4gb? | 09:03 |
| ikonia | notabene: the restricted drivers for example | 09:03 |
| notabene | my hardware does support 4gb | 09:03 |
| cwillu | genii, linux-server 'This packages ... latest complete linux kernel available' | 09:03 |

| cwillu | genii, linux-server is the package he wants | 09:04 |
| ikonia | notabene: no, you'd need to re-install the whole desktop | 09:04 |
| notabene | i see | 09:04 |
| cwillu | notabene, are you running a 64bit computer? | 09:04 |
| cwillu | if you aren't, it's a moot point | 09:04 |
| genii | cwillu: Interesting, must be recent. Previously only way was with tasksel | 09:05 |
| cwillu | genii, eh? | 09:05 |
| cwillu | since fiesty at least | 09:06 |
| notabene | cwillu, yes but i dont want 64bit version because of possible software compatibility problems | 09:06 |
| cwillu | Also, there are restricted modules for -server | 09:06 |
| cwillu | although you have to also install linux-restricted-modules-server to get them I believe | 09:06 |

| cwillu | Masteredu, reset to defaults would undo whatever change you just made | 09:16 |
| DistroJockey | sravan, nope, intel and ati are also very well supported (maybe others) | 09:16 |
| Masteredu | i mean when i will have a german layout i first must i first delete the german and make default then add german and delete default | 09:16 |
| Masteredu | first then i have german | 09:16 |
| cwillu | Felony, I _think_ the ubuntu livecd has an option to fix grub | 09:17 |
| cwillu | !grub | 09:17 |
| ubottu | grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 09:17 |
| happihippo | Masteredu: add the german layout. Select default, then delete the US layout | 09:17 |
| Felony | lol a floppy? oh jesus | 09:17 |
| Masteredu | ? | 09:17 |
| cwillu | Felony, uh, no | 09:17 |
| cwillu | Felony, that's one option, but it's not the only one :p | 09:17 |

| casso | just got told | 09:24 |
| sravan | cwillu, i could not see any changes in my setting, | 09:24 |
| DistroJockey | casso, more info would also help :) | 09:24 |
| {Delano} | cwillu, that's reassuring; I was under the impression that I'd have to reinstall constantly if I wanted to keep up to date, like you have to do when new versions of Windows comes out | 09:24 |

| am1 | Hi all. Sorry to interrupt. Anybody know if the 8.10alpha3 has fixes for the PulseAudio issues? I need to make some recordings in a few days, and I haven't been able to get my USB microphone to work. I'm tired of messing around with it. I figure I could downgrade to 7.10 (which worked fine) or see if the Alphas are any better. | 09:41 |
| plouffe | cwillu I have tried that it didn't help | 09:42 |
| DistroJockey | _zenon_, no problem. You could also look in /var/cache/apt/archives/ at the file dates (there is a command to do what you want though I am sure) | 09:42 |
| cwillu | am1, downgrade then. don't inflict 8.10 on yourself, it's not ready | 09:42 |
| yowler | plouffe: kill your music player too if there is any | 09:42 |
| plouffe | cwillu I also tried killing and restarting audiopulse, doesn't help | 09:42 |
| _zenon_ | DistroJockey, Thanks :) | 09:42 |

| sravan_ | cwillu, is it possble for u to remote login to my laptop and show me how to do it? | 09:43 |
| plouffe | cwillu yes | 09:43 |
| johnz | no, it's blocked from outside | 09:43 |
| yowler | It happens to me quite often, all I do is kill firefox ps and amaroks ps. | 09:43 |
| Flannel | am1: Ask in #ubuntu+1 | 09:43 |
| cwillu | johnz, I'm a bit confused | 09:44 |

| cwillu | johnz, where are you running the ant script from? | 09:44 |
| johnz | from ant.. and yes I can connet, but it you try it will fail | 09:44 |
| cwillu | johnz, does apt have a scp target that knows how to specify a password automatically? | 09:45 |
| cwillu | johnz, because you're not specifying the password in the scp target | 09:45 |

| johnz | lets test again | 09:46 |

| cwillu | johnz, show me | 09:46 |
| plouffe | cwillu I restarted it, but I will close it again | 09:46 |

| cwillu | plouffe, cache wasn't necessary :p | 09:47 |
| am1 | Thanks guys. glitsj16: I saw some similar instructions for 8.04 and tried them with no luck. But I'm tempted to try the alpha, although I understand cwillu's warning. | 09:47 |
| plouffe | cwillu I'm just saying it. I have nothing else running, but I get no sound anywhere if I try | 09:47 |

| kane77 | can I somehow change the resolution of the text terminal? | 09:47 |
| yowler | plouffe: which player were you using again? | 09:48 |
| cwillu | kane77, ctrl [+], ctrl [-] | 09:48 |
| plouffe | flash plugin in firefox. But it's the same for ekiga or totem etc | 09:48 |
| johnz | http://paste.ubuntu.com/32521/ | 09:48 |
| johnz | look at this then | 09:48 |
| plouffe | yowler It's been happening for the last couple of days | 09:48 |
| cwillu | johnz, I'm not sure, but I don't think scp lets you provide the password on the command line. let me check though | 09:49 |
| johnz | thx | 09:49 |
| cwillu | johnz, easiest thing to do would be to run ssh-keygen on your local box | 09:49 |
| johnz | cause that's not working | 09:50 |
| gunnar | hi, after installing dmraid and successfully set up a Nvraid .. when rebooting i get a Easybox shell.. ? | 09:50 |

| MaGiCShRooM | kalhmera :) | 09:50 |
| cwillu | johnz, then it won't need a password to authenticate | 09:50 |

| plouffe | yowler I am using 32bit firefox on 64bit amd. I couldn't get java to run on regular firefox | 09:50 |
| johnz | okey, but I would rather get this working | 09:50 |
| plouffe | It's version 2.x | 09:51 |
| cwillu | johnz, you can't specify a password to scp like that | 09:51 |
| johnz | it should work.. I'm just to stupied to get it to work | 09:51 |
| johnz | let me se ? | 09:51 |
| glitsj16 | am1: well you can always run the intrepid alpha 3 if you have the HD space and do the work on a more stable 8.04 kernel if needed.. and yes, the same author of that post has a well documented ubuntuforums page on pulseaudio .. it's updated recently, might be worth a second look to get pulseaudio configured properly .. | 09:51 |

| kane77 | cwillu, hmm.. the ctrl + does not seem to work.. | 09:52 |
| plouffe | yowler but I just clicked on a regular movie file and it ran without sound in totem movie player | 09:52 |
| cwillu | kane77, my bad, ctrl + shift + [+] | 09:52 |
| _zenon_ | kane77, If you are refering to the tty's that should be done at startup | 09:52 |
| cwillu | (or hit ctrl + [keypad +] | 09:52 |

| plouffe | yowler I have tried with and without pulseaudio. And yes my volume is turned all the way up. And yes only way is to reboot, but it happens too often now | 09:53 |
| Rutz | How do I make ubuntu more lightweight? | 09:53 |
| yowler | it happens random or when doing something specific? | 09:53 |
| cens0red | a 2005 Pew Research Center poll found that 42 percent of Americans hold strict creationist views that “living things have existed in their present form since the beginning of time” | 09:53 |
| kane77 | _zenon_, yes, I'm talking about tty's.. I just bought 22" and the resolution that it's using now makes the letters too big (and I'm not making good use of the extra space) | 09:54 |
| plouffe | yowler I don't know what causes it. Might be flash plugin related | 09:54 |
| cens0red | 64 percent said they were open to the idea of teaching creationism in addition to evolution in public schools | 09:54 |
| Flannel | cens0red: please stop | 09:54 |
| cens0red | 38 percent said they think evolution should be replaced by creationism in biology classrooms. | 09:54 |
| cens0red | Flannel soz. Forgot I was in this channel. | 09:54 |
| plouffe | yowler but it doesn't happen every time I use the flash plugin | 09:54 |
| _zenon_ | kane77, You could look at this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ChangeTTYResolution | 09:54 |
| _zenon_ | kane77, I hope you find what you seek | 09:55 |
| yowler | try and kill firefox proccess and reopen totem | 09:55 |
| cwillu | johnz, any luck? | 09:55 |
| kane77 | _zenon_, this seems like what I'm looking for.. | 09:55 |
| cwillu | johnz, (man scp, man ssh should be useful) | 09:55 |
| kane77 | _zenon_, thank you | 09:55 |
| _zenon_ | kane77, good. I wish you the best of luck. | 09:55 |
| plouffe | yowler I just did that, I killed firefox, it's not running and there is no sound in totem | 09:56 |
| yowler | hmm | 09:56 |
| johnz | I know how to get them to work in linux, it's more the damn ANT script.. | 09:57 |
| Rutz | Some help me please to make ubuntu more lightweight | 09:57 |
| Flannel | Rutz: Have you tried xubuntu? | 09:58 |
| cwillu | johnz, how are you specifying the password to scp? | 09:58 |
| Rutz | Flannel: Is it good? | 09:58 |
| Flannel | Rutz: It is. You should check it out. | 09:58 |
| johnz | it asks me for it | 09:58 |
| ufk | Rutz, define lightweight.. you don't want gnome ? or X? or kde ? or just remove unneeded applications ? | 09:58 |
| johnz | I'm typing it in afterwards | 09:59 |
| tmjb | Hello I have problem with opengl on my latop i have Intel 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller (rev 03) the and the lxinfo | grep render says OpenGL renderer string: Mesa GLX Indirect. How to change this ? | 09:59 |
| cwillu | johnz, lol, that's what I was asking long before :p | 09:59 |
| johnz | ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub into a file called /home/<login name>/.ssh/authorized_keys | 09:59 |
| johnz | but in ant it don't ask | 09:59 |
| johnz | if it fails it fails | 09:59 |
| Rutz | ufk: I have been using windows xp for some while and I find it very fast and lightweight (booting, starting applications...) but ubuntu seems slow to me :( | 10:00 |
| cwillu | johnz, no, that's fine. is /www/common/... the path, or is it /something/else/and/then/www/common/...? | 10:00 |
| Rutz | ufk: so I wanted a fast and easy linux, ubuntu is easy but kinda...slow | 10:00 |
| Sang_Prabu | hi all | 10:01 |
| ufk | Rutz, what hardware do you have? | 10:01 |
| cwillu | johnz, the scp command right now isn't working from under the users homedir, but from / | 10:01 |
| Rutz | ufk: it shouldn't make difference because I ran winxp on the same machine | 10:01 |
| Rutz | Flannel: thanks, I'll try it out a lil later | 10:01 |
| cwillu | johnz, so it's trying to scp from /www/common/... rather than {basedir}/www/common (presuming that basedir isn't null) | 10:01 |
| th0r | Rutz, consider a lighter window manager, both gnome and kde run slower than xp on most hardware | 10:01 |
| Bogh | ufk, how have you installed Ubuntu? | 10:01 |
| johnz | okej | 10:02 |
| ufk | Bogh, what do you mean how ? | 10:02 |
| Bogh | ufk, Wubi, dual boot on same HD or different HD? | 10:02 |
| Rutz | th0r: can you advise me some wmanagers, with as much functionality as explorer.exe in win but fast | 10:02 |
| johnz | so what should I change in order to get it worked man | 10:02 |
| RobertWHurst | hi there I'm haveing a hard lockup when runing bittorrent files is anyone willing to help? | 10:02 |
| Bogh | ufk, or are you running Ubuntu on the Live CD only? :-) | 10:02 |
| ufk | ah? xfce is faster then gnome ? | 10:03 |
| ufk | Bogh: no i have it installed on 5 different computers. | 10:03 |
| Rutz | ufk: is it not? | 10:03 |
| RobertWHurst | Ubuntu Hardy | 10:03 |
| th0r | Rutz, I like xfce as it is current and light, but I am about to try enlightenment again after years with xfce just for fun | 10:03 |
| cwillu | johnz, what is the dir it should be in? | 10:03 |
| Bogh | ufk, yeah, Xubuntu is fast | 10:03 |
| johnz | ${basedir}/www/common/search/enirogo/scripts | 10:03 |
| Rutz | I can't discern between wm and de's... | 10:03 |
| johnz | it should end up there | 10:03 |
| ufk | i didn't ask regarding Xubuntu.. i asked regarding xfce specifically | 10:03 |
| cwillu | johnz, scp foo@bar:baz/bing is relative to the home dir, scp foo@bar:/baz/bind is relative to the root | 10:03 |
| Rutz | is enlighenment de ? | 10:03 |
| Bogh | ufk, but Gnome should be faster than WinXP, you might have a problem with your installation/setup | 10:04 |
| cwillu | johnz, <arg line="${scp.username}@${scp.host}:${basedir}${scp.host.dir.css}"/> should do it then | 10:04 |
| Bogh | ufk, xfce is faster, yes | 10:04 |
| Rutz | Bogh: is kde faster too? | 10:04 |
| ufk | Bogh: that's why you addressed it to me.. i didn't ask any question, Rutz did. | 10:04 |
| th0r | Rutz, enlightenment is old tech....been around for years. It is quick and really good looking, but you need to configure EVERYTHING | 10:04 |
| johnz | okey testing | 10:04 |
| Rutz | th0r: what do you mean configure? | 10:04 |
| Bogh | Rutz: no | 10:04 |
| th0r | Rutz, you know the old linux joke....the good news is you can configure everything, the bad news is you have to configure everything | 10:05 |
| Rutz | Bogh: Gnome os faster than kde? I didn't notice difference when trying 7.04 in past | 10:05 |
| th0r | Rutz, you usually have to add new stuff manually, the menu editor leaves a lot to be desired | 10:05 |
| Bogh | Rutz: Some will say it's the same, some will say Gnome and other KDE. :-) | 10:05 |
| Rutz | th0r: if in the end it becomes superfast I'll give it my time | 10:06 |
| th0r | Rutz, but even after all these years if you play with the themes the interface can be gorgeous | 10:06 |
| cwillu | Rutz, are you running with desktop effects enabled? | 10:06 |
| cwillu | Rutz, windows has had a very light form of compositing forever, which does make things like exposes feel way way faster | 10:06 |
| Rutz | cwillu: no, I have disabled all fancy stuf I could | 10:06 |
| th0r | Rutz, it is fast...stick with E16...E17 has been in development for years and they have finally attained development status <smile> | 10:06 |
| johnz | cwillu, it don't work either | 10:07 |
| cwillu | Rutz, enabling desktop effects, or running xcompmgr (although it's sketchy) will improve the subjective performance | 10:07 |
| th0r | Rutz, E16 is available as enlightenment in synaptic | 10:07 |
| cwillu | johnz, what is basedir? | 10:07 |
| dpic | can somebody help me? i just did a fresh install of ubuntu but i think my software sources list may be broken. i can't check off "Important Security Updates (hardy-security)" in the gui | 10:07 |
| Rutz | cwillu: what do you measn. do you say 'it seems faster' ? :) | 10:07 |
| johnz | basedir = . | 10:07 |
| Flannel | dpic: close the GUI, pastebin your sources.list | 10:08 |
| DistroJockey | dpic, what version of Ubuntu? | 10:08 |
| === ktogias_ is now known as ktogias | ||
| th0r | Rutz, consider running gkrellm to keep an eye on things like mem and cpu load...it will help you figure out what is consuming resources and slowing things down | 10:08 |
| cwillu | johnz, so, the home directory? | 10:08 |
| morbyt1 | Rutz: thats exactly what it is :) eg minimising windows seems faster because its very smooth in visual... | 10:08 |
| johnz | yeah | 10:08 |
| dpic | DistroJockey: 8.04.1 | 10:08 |
| morbyt1 | Rutz: and doesnt waste cpu time because its mainly done by the graphics card | 10:09 |
| Rutz | th0r: I am talking of a fresh install actually | 10:09 |
| johnz | cwillu this is strange.. I should perhaps add the password to a file | 10:10 |
| dpic | Flannel: http://pastebin.com/m42903fb4 i've done some messing with it sine the problem occurred but this is what it looks like now | 10:10 |
| th0r | Rutz, fresh ubuntu runs gnome....I avoid both gnome and kde for the load they put on resources | 10:10 |
| Rutz | morbyt1: I disabled effects in windows too, I think you are saying some nonsense, no offence | 10:10 |
| dpic | cine* | 10:10 |
| dpic | since* | 10:10 |
| Rutz | th0r: so, xfce | 10:10 |
| Rutz | or enlightenment | 10:10 |
| th0r | Rutz, I agree about the effects....my idle cpu load with compiz on is over 20% without it is 1-2% | 10:11 |
| morbyt1 | uhh | 10:11 |
| morbyt1 | that much? :) | 10:11 |
| Rutz | it's not only about that, I just hate the effects, they distract:) | 10:11 |
| Flannel | dpic: you want to disable -proposed. But you've got security enabled (I'd also disable backports, but thats just me) | 10:12 |
| th0r | Rutz, xfce first, then enlightenment. You should have a decent working xfce in a day...enlightenment will take longer | 10:12 |
| Rutz | I don't have reasons to have them on | 10:12 |
| Flannel | dpic: Does sudo apt-get update give you errors? | 10:12 |
| cwillu | johnz, you can't provide a password to scp without tricking it into thinking it's reading it from you directly | 10:12 |
| Rutz | th0r: well, I wasted quite a lot of time with windos registry tweaking too) | 10:12 |
| th0r | Rutz, I know....I have an entire folder full of xp tweaks. | 10:13 |
| Rutz | heh=) | 10:13 |
| mchasar1 | hi | 10:13 |
| th0r | Rutz, the good news...there is no registry to hack <smile> | 10:13 |
| mchasar1 | is there a special room for eeebuntu ? | 10:13 |
| yacc | Hmmm, how does one add defoma manually to Xorg? (I had to manually change my xorg.conf to support my touchscreen) | 10:13 |
| Rutz | th0r: even on 3GHz (one core) I disabled all themes and effect, I just like minimalistics...but with comfort | 10:14 |
| cwillu | th0r, ahem (gconf) | 10:14 |
| Rutz | th0r: text files are no eeasier :P | 10:14 |
| cwillu | Rutz, text files can be version controlled :p | 10:14 |
| morbyt1 | Rutz; it depends... me likes the animated minimizing of windows so i find them faster when restoring... also moving windows around the screen is more fluent and not as "shaggy" as it is w/o compiz. but still its true: "less effects are the best effects :)" | 10:14 |
| th0r | Rutz, I run the same way...I want the resources spent on MY tasks | 10:14 |
| th0r | cwillu, you are talking about gnome....we are talking xfce and enlightenment | 10:14 |
| cwillu | th0r, xfce uses gnome widgetry | 10:15 |
| Rutz | cwillu: meaning? | 10:15 |
| th0r | cwillu, I think it is the apps that may use gnome libs, xfce itself is independent if I am not mistaken | 10:15 |
| Rutz | th0r: if I install xubuntu, does it have kde/gnome applications? | 10:16 |
| cwillu | th0r, https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2006-September/020951.html | 10:16 |
| morbyt1 | th0r: is there some composite manager which is slicker than compiz? | 10:16 |
| th0r | Rutz, no need to install xubuntu...just install xfce4 from synaptic and then switch to it at the login screen. And yes, you can install gnome or kde apps via synaptic if you want them | 10:17 |
| th0r | Rutz, there are some gnome apps I use (brasero). But those libs load when I need them and unload when the app closes | 10:18 |
| Flannel | th0r, Rutz, xubuntu-desktop | 10:18 |
| th0r | morbyt1, not sure, I am not real impressed with invisible windows <smile> | 10:18 |
| heavensrevenge | hello | 10:18 |
| heavensrevenge | whats the infobash equivalent in xchat?? | 10:19 |
| morbyt1 | :) | 10:19 |
| heavensrevenge | i cant remember.... | 10:19 |
| cwillu | th0r, quite handy when you're moving windows though :p | 10:19 |
| th0r | cwillu, I don't see why....I move the windows in xfce and enlightenment all the time and never needed to see through them | 10:20 |
| Rutz | I meant installing xubuntu, does the xubuntu cd also have and use gnome/kde apps | 10:20 |
| cwillu | Rutz, by default, x doesn't cache the contents of windows, so it you drag one window over top another, and then bring the back one back up front, it'll have to redraw the window. The worst case is when you drag a window over and back, as you'll see it redraw a slice at a time | 10:20 |
| th0r | Rutz, I don't think they are on the cd....but you can get them through synaptic | 10:20 |
| sulo | anyone here has ubuntu on a mac? | 10:20 |
| cwillu | Rutz, windows does cache the contents however, and so can just blit the old contents back over top. any compositing manager will also gain the same benefit | 10:20 |
| dpic | Flannel: no, apt-get update doesn't return any errors | 10:21 |
| arcsky | legend2440: thanks | 10:21 |
| heavensrevenge | what is the infobash command for xchat?? | 10:21 |
| Flannel | dpic: Well, I'd say you're all fine. I have no idea what's up with software sources though. | 10:21 |
| cwillu | th0r, it's not a debate, it _is_ useful for me, as you can see which other windows you may be obscuring, and see what's behind a window by just alt-clicking on it | 10:21 |
| cwillu | th0r, that it's not useful for you is a moot point :p | 10:21 |
| Rutz | cwillu: didn't quite understand what you are trying to say. | 10:22 |
| cwillu | Rutz, are you running desktop effects == None? | 10:22 |
| cwillu | (in the appearence panel) | 10:22 |
| Rutz | cwillu: yes | 10:22 |
| cwillu | okay | 10:22 |
| dpic | Flannel: alruight thanks for the help | 10:22 |
| Rutz | cwillu: and? | 10:22 |
| cwillu | maximize your xchat window, and open another smaller window | 10:22 |
| cwillu | (the game five-or-more, for instance) | 10:23 |
| cwillu | now, drag the game window wildly over the xchat window | 10:23 |
| th0r | heavensrevenge, info xchat or man xchat | 10:23 |
| heavensrevenge | oop | 10:23 |
| legend2440 | dpic: i think this will fix it comment out your line # 51 then try this line deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hardy-security main restricted multiverse | 10:23 |
| heavensrevenge | there we go :) | 10:23 |
| legend2440 | dpic: deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hardy-security main restricted multiverse | 10:23 |
| Rutz | cwillu: hey, why do I need this, I didn't express concerns about anything like that:) | 10:23 |
| legend2440 | dpic: deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hardy-security universe | 10:23 |
| Rutz | I was talking about the time needed to start an app | 10:24 |
| Rutz | (in ms) | 10:24 |
| cwillu | Rutz, it's a subjective performance improvement | 10:24 |
| Rutz | cwillu: so? | 10:24 |
| Flannel | dpic: ACtually, shouldn't that be security.ubuntu.com? That's probably what the GUI is looking for (and why its not checked when you look) | 10:24 |
| th0r | cwillu, it isn't subjective if you take alook at cpu load and memory usage | 10:24 |
| cwillu | Rutz, seeing an application not updating it's screen after being obscured has a documented effect on the perceived performance :p | 10:24 |
| mark_ | Hi. Can anyone tell me how to overcome the uselessness of Ekiga? | 10:24 |
| cwillu | th0r, which, graphics card memory and load? :p | 10:24 |
| Rutz | cwillu: does it have anything to do with starting an application when it wasn't running??? | 10:25 |
| cwillu | mark_, install skype :p | 10:25 |
| mark_ | I did. But I don't want to sign up for another PC/Phone account | 10:25 |
| th0r | cwillu, nope....if I turn on compiz the idle cpu load on a 1.5G cpu with 1.25G ram goes from 1-2% to over 20%.... | 10:25 |

| th0r | cwillu, well, I don't think we should have to buy a new computer every two years just to look good onscreen | 10:26 |
| cwillu | th0r, my computer's getting on 5 years old, works just fine :p | 10:26 |
| th0r | cwillu, especially when enlightenment will do it for free | 10:26 |
| magentar | in my experience compiz performs really well, even on older machines... and it only uses system ressources while visual effects are active | 10:27 |
| th0r | Rutz, if you really want to squeeze every bit of performance out of the computer, check out fluxbox or one of the other minimalist wm's | 10:27 |
| mark_ | That's odd. I tried compiz and system resource usage shot up to 99% on my box | 10:27 |

| dpic | deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hardy-security restricted main multiverse universe | 10:27 |
| === Lady``Marija is now known as acidus | ||
| cwillu | mark_, that means something is being done in software | 10:28 |
| cwillu | mark_, common with older intel chipsets | 10:28 |
| Rutz | maybe I need to completely replace all applications? | 10:28 |
| Flannel | dpic: hmm, try changing that to main restricted unvierse mutliverse (not that that should make a difference) | 10:28 |
| mark_ | I have the latest AMD64 | 10:28 |
| cwillu | mark_, no, graphics chipset | 10:28 |
| Flannel | dpic: Just for yucks. See if software sources likes that (and if it does, file a bug against it, and show how you fixed it, even if it odesn't, probably worthwhile to file a bug) | 10:28 |
| Rutz | tell me for example, why does konsole needs 1-2 seconds to load while cmd.exe in windows needs 0.5 ? | 10:28 |
| mark_ | Nvidia GE6 something | 10:28 |

| th0r | mark_, gizmo is stock sip...so ekiga will work with it | 10:29 |
| dpic | Flannel: nope, still can't check it off | 10:29 |
| perfector | linch7, NO | 10:29 |
| cwillu | perfector, back up a step, why did you need to compile a kernel? | 10:29 |
| mark_ | Link to gizmo? | 10:29 |
| perfector | linch7, hee hee kidding | 10:29 |
| Flannel | dpic: Very odd indeed. Sounds like bugreport time. | 10:29 |
| perfector | cwillu, optimise it for arch | 10:30 |
| linch7 | @ perfecor oh, got me :-) | 10:30 |

| mark_ | Stupid typing | 10:30 |
| dpic | Flannel: but how can anyone reproduce this? | 10:30 |
| th0r | mark_, try gizmoproject.com...I think that is it | 10:30 |
| ue__ | I there are iptables, but I am interested if it supports ipfw | 10:30 |
| legend2440 | dpic: i think this will fix it comment out your line # 51 then sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade then try to check the box | 10:30 |
| cwillu | perfector, the generic kernel has optimizations enabled (it's not an 386 kernel, it's a modern-processor-optimizations-enabled kernel :p) | 10:31 |
| perfector | cwillu, no thats all ok. any idea abt what modules pulseaudio requires | 10:31 |
| perfector | ? | 10:31 |
| magentar | Rutz, use xterm then, i think it'smore comparable to cmd.exe then konsole. but i think the difference is worth waiting 2 seconds ;) | 10:31 |
| Flannel | dpic: They probably can't, but the bug may still be find-able, and also if in a month someone else has the same issue, they'll find it, etc. | 10:31 |
| Rutz | magentar: what difference is there? visual? | 10:31 |
| cwillu | perfector, investigate module-assistant (in the repository) | 10:31 |
| perfector | cwillu, i used the ubuntu kernel sources though and my existing .config file | 10:31 |
| dpic | flannel: alrighty | 10:31 |
| Flannel | dpic: They'll ask for your sources.list, etc. In theory its duplicatable. | 10:31 |
| magentar | well konsole has many handy features, while cmd.exe has nearly none | 10:31 |
| cwillu | perfector, you're not gaining anything though | 10:31 |
| th0r | Rutz, xterm is rather minimal....rxvt, Eterm, and xfce-terminal are all nicer and don't seem to cost any more | 10:32 |
| magentar | like tabbing, highlighting searching etc. | 10:32 |

| xorand | magentar, thank you | 10:36 |
| Flannel | dpic: then yeah, that's your bug. And legend2440 had already given us the workaround (or you can just wait, since it doesn't cause any problems except not showing the checkbox checked) | 10:37 |
| dpic | Flannel: guess i'll jsut wait. thanks for the help | 10:37 |
| dpic | it's getting close to 6am so i should go to bed | 10:38 |

| moDumass | thanks | 10:41 |
| chalcedony | is there a pastebin that i can upload a file to, rather than pasting? | 10:42 |
| SNuxoll | chalcedony: there's a cli tool called pastebinit that might help | 10:42 |
| mark_ | gizmo keeps telling me that no audio i/o devices are available | 10:43 |
| legend2440 | moDumass: also check for hidden files referring to that proxy program in /home/yourusername folder and move or delete them | 10:43 |
| chalcedony | ty SNuxoll | 10:43 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: why are you using the official gizmo client? | 10:43 |
| mark_ | I have a perfectly good usb phone plugged in | 10:43 |
| mark_ | Because you told me to | 10:43 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: gizmo doesn't require you to use their client | 10:43 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: I use gizmo as my sip provider with ekiga | 10:43 |
| mark_ | How do I do that? | 10:44 |
| Masteredu | how can i install amarok 2 alpha ??? i only have a folder with install copying config-amarok.h.cmake etc. :( | 10:44 |
| pulse00 | hi all. i'm experiences random system crashes in hardy. does anyone know of any system crash log or something where i could try to track this down ? | 10:44 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: fire up ekiga, skip through the registration on the first run druid | 10:44 |
| thomc | Hi, is it possible to encrypt an external hard drive so that when plugged in it requires a password before access? | 10:44 |
| Masteredu | can anyone say me ?? | 10:44 |
| moDumass | legend2440 i cant seem to open gedit in sudo | 10:45 |
| mark_ | Especially when starting Ekiga tells me that I have some mystery program running on the port used by Ekiga | 10:45 |
| DistroJockey | Masteredu, read the README file? | 10:45 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: do you have gizmo open while opening ekiga? | 10:45 |
| mark_ | No | 10:45 |
| pulse00 | Masteredu, if you have a source distribution, you need to compile it | 10:45 |
| legend2440 | moDumass: gksudo gedit /etc/hosts doesn't work? | 10:45 |
| mark_ | I have nothing VoIP/SIP like open except for Ekiga and a Jabber client | 10:45 |
| mark_ | And this | 10:45 |
| msandbu | hmmm anyone know how to change the wifi mode from Monitor mode back to normal mode? | 10:46 |
| Masteredu | how can i compile it ??? | 10:46 |
| moDumass | legend it just throws up an error re fonts.conf | 10:46 |
| ufk | it seems that if i work in firefox3 and hear sound using flash9 after a while the sound card stops working, i can't hear and gnome-alsa-mixer won't even start and then it even blocks me from starting firefox again. i see no error messages in dmesg. using lenovo r61 with intel sound card. any ideas ? | 10:46 |
| pulse00 | Masteredu, ./configure && make | 10:46 |
| pulse00 | then sudo make install | 10:46 |
| moDumass | but i got mousepag to open as sudo and il navigate to the files | 10:46 |
| mark_ | How do I fill in the user name section in the Ekiga conf druid? | 10:47 |
| pulse00 | Masteredu, bit like DistroJockey said, reading the README file would help too | 10:47 |
| moDumass | legend2440 hosts has a lot more info than hostname does | 10:47 |
| mark_ | It keeps failing | 10:47 |
| moDumass | hostname only has modumass-desktop | 10:48 |
| mark_ | It does nothing but fail | 10:48 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: just skip that part | 10:48 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: you want to add the account manually anyways | 10:48 |
| mark_ | Ok | 10:48 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: do you know what your gizmo number is? | 10:48 |
| moDumass | legend2440 which should i overwrite with which | 10:49 |
| mark_ | I can't skip it. The forward box is greyed out | 10:49 |
| legend2440 | moDumass: i would make backup of /etc/hosts before editing then make /etc/hosts match /etc/hostname | 10:49 |
| orly_owl | http://pastebin.com/d74a220e5 Anyone know how to fix this? Installing virtualbox-ose-modules-386 didn't change anything. | 10:49 |
| legend2440 | moDumass: can you paste hostname and hosts files | 10:49 |
| legend2440 | !paste | 10:49 |
| ubottu | pastebin is a service to post multiple-lined texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu.com (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the channel topic) | 10:49 |
| mark_ | No SNUX. Where would I find it? | 10:49 |
| moDumass | legend2440 hostname has nothing inside it except "modumass-desktop" whereas hosts has well my localhost ip and other stuff | 10:50 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: did you check "I don't want to sign up for the ekiga.net free service"? | 10:50 |
| DistroJockey | pulse00, does /var/log/syslog help at all? | 10:50 |
| moDumass | yeh il pastebin them | 10:50 |
| mark_ | I have now | 10:50 |
| mark_ | Thanks | 10:50 |
| moDumass | legend2440 this is my hosts | 10:50 |
| mark_ | How do I edit my account? | 10:50 |
| moDumass | http://www.pastebin.org/59870 | 10:50 |
| moDumass | legend2440 http://www.pastebin.org/59870 | 10:50 |
| moDumass | sorry | 10:50 |
| SNuxoll | mark_ Edit -> Accounts | 10:51 |
| moDumass | and hostname is entirely "evilsherpa-desktop | 10:51 |
| mark_ | Yes. And then it gets horribly complicated | 10:51 |
| moDumass | " | 10:51 |
| DistroJockey | pulse00, also check the .0 files for the previous log | 10:51 |
| mark_ | What's my account name? | 10:51 |
| mark_ | Syntax | 10:51 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: whatever you want, that's just the label ekiga uses for it | 10:51 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: registrar is proxy01.sipphone.com | 10:52 |
| mark_ | User? | 10:52 |
| pulse00 | DistroJockey, kk, thanks | 10:52 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: that is your Gizmo number, get it from my.gizmo.com | 10:52 |
| DistroJockey | pulse00, no problem, good luck | 10:52 |
| pulse00 | ty | 10:53 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: it'll be right under your Account Overview | 10:53 |
| MasseR | I don't have working splash. It's only black screen, can someone help me? http://paste.stgraber.org/100610 http://paste.stgraber.org/100609 | 10:53 |
| cherva | what was the command witch puts the installed from source app in the package manager ? checkinstall or something close? | 10:54 |
| legend2440 | moDumass: top two lines should be 27.0.0.1localhost | 10:54 |
| legend2440 | 127.0.1.1modumass-desktop | 10:54 |
| mark_ | Registration failed | 10:54 |
| legend2440 | moDumass: oops wait | 10:54 |
| legend2440 | moDumass: 127.0.0.1localhost | 10:55 |
| legend2440 | 127.0.1.1modumass-desktop | 10:55 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: make sure to remove the -'s fom your number | 10:55 |
| mark_ | Registration failed | 10:56 |
| MasseR | Framebuffer works with livecd though | 10:56 |
| mark_ | Is this my number? 1-747-346-9331 | 10:57 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: yes | 10:57 |
| legend2440 | moDumass: here is mine wirh your hostname inserted http://www.pastebin.org/59901 | 10:57 |
| mark_ | Then it should have worked with the -s removed | 10:57 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: probably wasn't a good idea to paste that by the way | 10:57 |
| mark_ | But it didn't | 10:57 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: registrar is proxy01.sipphone.com correct? | 10:57 |
| mark_ | I don't know | 10:57 |
| mark_ | It's what I pasted into the registrar box | 10:58 |
| legend2440 | moDumass: you could try that one but back yours up first | 10:58 |
| DistroJockey | legend2440, moDumass : default install with no name changes = the following first 2 lines in /etc/hosts : 127.0.0.1 localhost (new-line-here) 127.0.1.1 ubuntu.home.gateway ubuntu | 10:58 |
| ufk | until i finally moved my bosses from xp to ubuntu.. they have 5 times the amount of bugs | 10:59 |
| janerik | Graphics help needed.... My 3d effects don't work like it did before. New install of ubuntu. Worked earlier | 10:59 |
| mark_ | Should I tick the box? | 10:59 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: yes | 10:59 |
| moDumass | pk, sorry DistroJockey and legend2440 Im just reading your lines, brb | 10:59 |
| moDumass | processing | 10:59 |
| mark_ | Guess what, Snux? | 11:00 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: what? | 11:00 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: "Registration failed"? | 11:00 |
| mark_ | Correct :) | 11:00 |
| _victor_ | where da hell is the actual xorg configuration | 11:00 |
| mark_ | It's those stupid SI/H-323 errors, isn't it? | 11:01 |
| _victor_ | it's all blank spots in there | 11:01 |
| mark_ | SIP | 11:01 |
| BlackCow | i am having the hardest time trying to install mysql-server in ubuntu, i keep getting errors something to the effect of error processing mysql dependencies. I have no clue whats going on.. PHP and Apache are already installed fine | 11:01 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: quite possibly | 11:01 |
| moDumass | legend2440 ok, thats the way it is, sorry evilsherpa is my username | 11:01 |
| mark_ | Can I run Ekiga without being logged into X? | 11:01 |
| moDumass | just changed it for confusion sake, to avoid confusion i meanm | 11:01 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: no | 11:01 |
| HappyHater | _victor_, /etc/X11/xorg.conf ? | 11:01 |
| ikonia | BlackCow: please provide the error | 11:01 |
| Circus-Killer | _victor_, /etc/X11/xorg.conf ? | 11:01 |
| mark_ | Then I'm always going to get them | 11:01 |
| _victor_ | yes i know that...but it's not showing the actual info in there | 11:02 |
| HappyHater | what's missing? | 11:02 |
| moDumass | DistroJockey and legend2440 should hostname look like that too? | 11:02 |
| _victor_ | it's just blanks | 11:02 |
| BlackCow | well after installing mysql I get, dependency problems - leaving unconfigured Errors were encountered while processing: mysql-server-5.0 mysql-server | 11:02 |
| mark_ | Because I think it's trying to connect through the same port I'm connecting to the internet through | 11:02 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: hold on a sec, uploading a screenshot of my ekiga account settings | 11:02 |
| _victor_ | for starters where's my monitor config in there | 11:02 |
| Circus-Killer | you using root to view it? | 11:02 |
| legend2440 | moDumass: well whatever it says in /etc/hostname should be in /etc/hosts | 11:02 |
| mark_ | Okay | 11:02 |
| _victor_ | no | 11:02 |
| DistroJockey | moDumass, Mine is default (unchanged) | 11:02 |
| moDumass | legend2440 ok, but hostname has nothing in it except evilsherpa-desktop | 11:03 |
| janerik | Can anyone help me with the graphics problem??? Think it's a Xorg issue | 11:03 |
| Circus-Killer | _victor_, use root to view the file, see if that makes a difference | 11:03 |
| HappyHater | X blows at detecting hardware... run gksudo displayconfig-gtk to setup your monitor | 11:03 |
| legend2440 | moDumass: don't change the /etc/hostname file | 11:03 |
| _victor_ | sudo cant do it or something | 11:03 |
| morbyt1 | th0r: you earlier mentioned, that compiz eats a lot of cpu on an idle desktop. but what about an active desktop? i compared it and guess what: xorg + onscreen apps jump up high while shagging a window around the screen while when using compiz, the only recongisable change was compiz now taking 6%... | 11:03 |
| moDumass | legend2440 how do i get the hostname file to have anything other than evilsherpa-desktop though? | 11:03 |
| Spanishguy30 | hi, im looking for a gui for hellanzb. Any sugestions? | 11:03 |
| mark_ | I'm waiting for imageshack | 11:03 |
| ikonia | BlackCow: can you show us the exact errpr please, use a pastebin if you have to | 11:04 |
| BlackCow | that was the exact error | 11:04 |
| ikonia | BlackCow: your on ubuntu 8.04 ? | 11:04 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: http://i35.tinypic.com/ri5jwg.png | 11:04 |
| legend2440 | moDumass: why would you want to change your hostname? | 11:04 |
| th0r | morbyt1, well, to be honest, I never dragged a window around long enough to notice <smile> | 11:04 |
| BlackCow | i think so.. I dont remember | 11:04 |
| ikonia | BlackCow: just out of interest does everything work when you do a "sudo apt-get update" then "sudo apt-get install mysql-server" | 11:05 |
| moDumass | legend2440 you said the content from hostname has to match the content from hosts, but hosts has 9 lines in it, and hostname only has evilsherpa-desktop | 11:05 |
| peppo | does anyone here have a working set up of hugin? that stitches and blends successfully? 8.04? | 11:05 |
| DistroJockey | moDumass, and my /etc/hostname file contains (for comparison): ubuntu | 11:05 |
| BlackCow | ikonia: ill try that | 11:05 |
| spi343 | hi, i need to set mode 0660 and group uml-net to /dev/net/tun. chmod and chown on the file works but after reboot it's lost. so i added this at the end of /etc/udev/40-permissions.rules KERNEL=="tun", GROUP="uml-net", MODE="0660" but it's not being set after reboot | 11:06 |
| moDumass | then your hosts and hostname files dont contain the same info | 11:06 |
| unop | moDumass, the hostname file does not have to have all the entries that hosts has .. just the actual hostname | 11:06 |
| mark_ | There's no protocol option on yours SNux | 11:06 |
| morbyt1 | th0r: honestly moving windows isnt much interest but uhm, adding sth like compiz to the mozilla engine would be awsome. mozilla is so plain slow sometimes | 11:06 |
| === tymchn is now known as tymchn_ | ||
| moDumass | ah, ok | 11:06 |
| moDumass | cool | 11:06 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: what version of ubuntu are you using? | 11:06 |
| mark_ | HArdy | 11:06 |
| === tymchn_ is now known as tymchn | ||
| BlackCow | nope, it fails to start the mysql server and then gives me that error | 11:06 |
| vnrvjiet | is there anyone who can help me about kernal? | 11:06 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: ahh, because that only shows on the new account dialog | 11:07 |
| ikonia | BlackCow: so is mysql server actually installed ? | 11:07 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: are you choosing SIP as the protocol? | 11:07 |
| BlackCow | no I cant get it to install to the point that I can run it | 11:07 |
| guido | Hi guys, I've connected an embedded device through a lan cable to my PC, how can I figure out if my PC "sees" it and what's its IP ? I'm connected to the internet via wlan0, and to the device via eth0, here's my current network configuration: http://www.pastie.org/244717 | 11:07 |
| mark_ | Yes | 11:07 |
| BlackCow | i tried apt-get remove --purge on it and install again, same thing | 11:07 |
| ikonia | BlackCow: thats not what I asked | 11:07 |
| ikonia | BlackCow: I asked if it was installed, not if you could run it | 11:07 |
| BlackCow | well.. i guess its installed | 11:07 |
| moDumass | DistroJockey and legend2440 i think i misunderstood what you were saying, this is what both contain http://www.pastebin.org/59916 | 11:08 |
| BlackCow | it just fails to run | 11:08 |
| ikonia | BlackCow: ok - so what happens if you do "sudo /etc/init.d/mysql-server start | 11:08 |
| legend2440 | moDumass: here is how your /etc/hosts file should look. but i would backup old one before trying this http://www.pastebin.org/59915 | 11:08 |
| mark_ | http://img254.imageshack.us/my.php?image=200807311102531280x1024iz9.png | 11:08 |
| ikonia | BlackCow: sorry /etc/init.d/mysql stat | 11:08 |
| ikonia | start | 11:08 |
| legend2440 | moDumass: don't edit /etc/hostname file at all | 11:09 |
| morbyt1 | sb willing to help with custom kernel configuration? | 11:09 |
| BlackCow | it trys to start, hangs for a while, then says "...fail!" | 11:09 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: those errors may be casued because you don't have ports forwarded | 11:09 |
| moDumass | legend2440 random, that is waht it looks like, bar possibly some spaces | 11:09 |
| ikonia | BlackCow: ok , now look at the syslog and the mysql log to find out the issue | 11:09 |
| mark_ | I don't know the first thing about forwarding ports, snux | 11:10 |
| ikonia | BlackCow: for future reference the problem is not that mysql is not installed - it's installed, but it cant start | 11:10 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: also, I've found that restarting ekiga fixes the registration errors | 11:10 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: you've never forwarded ports before? then http://portforward.net should help you | 11:10 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: http://portforward.com actually | 11:11 |
| BlackCow | well it gives me an error right off the bat after it installs, telling me the install process had some errors | 11:11 |
| BlackCow | and where do I find the syslog? | 11:11 |
| mark_ | Is this horribly complex with a four page introduction? | 11:11 |
| legend2440 | moDumass: can you paste your /etc/hosts file? this is what you pasted before http://www.pastebin.org/59870 | 11:11 |
| zeech | where am i? | 11:11 |
| ikonia | BlackCow: /var/log/messages | 11:11 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: no, forwarding ports is extremely easy | 11:11 |
| ikonia | zeech: your in an ubuntu support irc channel, type /topic to see more info | 11:11 |
| moDumass | ok, sorry | 11:12 |
| moDumass | http://www.pastebin.org/59916 | 11:12 |
| mark_ | Where do I start, snux. Tell me or I'll get it horribly wrong | 11:12 |
| zeech | thanks | 11:12 |
| guido | Could I use a "ping" to scan my local network for connected devices ? In which way ? Thanks. | 11:12 |
| BlackCow | i dont know what to make of the log file, it just says --MARK-- a bunch of times | 11:12 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/routerindex.htm pick your router from here | 11:12 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: it'll tell you how to get to the page that controls forwarding on your router | 11:13 |
| ikonia | BlackCow: ok, so look at the mysql log file | 11:13 |
| mark_ | I have an NTL supplied modem. Is that a router? | 11:13 |
| Ademan | yay 4 ati! i switched to fglrx and now i'm getting a "signal out of range" error from my monitor, it seems xorg is incorrectly detecting my monitor's refresh rate, any way to rectify this? | 11:13 |
| moDumass | legend2440 http://www.pastebin.org/59916 thats both of them right there | 11:13 |
| moDumass | thanks for all the help btw | 11:13 |
| legend2440 | moDumass: ok sorry misunderstood. that is not your problem. have you checked for any hidden files in your /home/yourusername folder like .anonproxy? | 11:13 |
| spi343 | please help with udev permissions | 11:14 |
| moDumass | im lookin into it now | 11:14 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: type ifconfig into a terminal, what is the inet addr: of your network interface? | 11:14 |
| DistroJockey | guido, nmap may be what you are looking for | 11:14 |
| BlackCow | it just has some premissions, showing a mysql user and a root user saying "total used in directory 8 available" at the top | 11:14 |
| mark_ | inet addr:81.107.88.124 snux | 11:15 |

| JW | I'm wanting to install Ubuntu over my current Windows XP OS, which version should i go for? | 11:15 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: no | 11:15 |
| legend2440 | moDumass: when i uninstalled tor and privoxy i had similar problem but that was a while ago and can't remember how i got everything back to normal | 11:15 |
| mark_ | Then what do I do? | 11:15 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: you shouldn't be having these issues if you don't have a router.... | 11:15 |
| ikonia | JW: desktop version 8.04 | 11:15 |

| moDumass | legend2440 no firefox works like a dream, i just cant go to localhost | 11:16 |
| moDumass | or localhost/wordpress/ | 11:16 |
| mark_ | Maybe I should check to see if any router type software has been installed on my system, snux | 11:16 |
| JW | DistroJockey, I was unaware that 8.04.1 was available? | 11:16 |
| spi343 | in what file exactly i set permissions and ownership for devices when using udev? i tried in 40-permissions.rules and 40-basic-permissions.rules but with no effect | 11:16 |
| moDumass | they jsut nver connect | 11:16 |
| DistroJockey | JW, it is | 11:16 |
| JW | Where can I find it? I don't see it on the Ubuntu website | 11:17 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: firewall maybe... | 11:17 |
| unop | spi343, why do you want to change permissions for device? | 11:17 |
| JW | I need Ubuntu to be as stable as possible | 11:17 |
| mark_ | I'm sure I didn't install a firewall, snux | 11:17 |
| BlackCow | well thanks for trying to help me, im just going to try reinstalling everything from scratch, like apache and php | 11:17 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: about the only thing I could see causing these issues, or you just have a broken install | 11:17 |
| bazhang | JW, latest is .1 | 11:17 |
| DistroJockey | JW, you will probably get that one | 11:17 |
| legend2440 | moDumass: any problems with sudo or opening Admin programs like update manager? | 11:17 |
| JW | Thank you for your help, goodbye :) | 11:17 |
| mark_ | I installed the minimal version and built on it | 11:17 |
| spi343 | unop, i need mode 0660 and group uml-net for /dev/net/tun, chown and chmod on it works but when restart it's lost, so i need to make an udev rule | 11:18 |
| spi343 | unop, for virtualbox | 11:18 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: might be the issue.... | 11:18 |
| moDumass | legend2440 i had iussues with update manager but fixed them | 11:18 |
| moDumass | through this channe; | 11:18 |
| Razumikin | olá a todos, alguém fala português? | 11:18 |
| moDumass | sudo sometimes yes | 11:18 |
| moDumass | but only with some apps | 11:18 |
| fde | !br | 11:18 |
| ubottu | Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt por ajuda em português. Obrigado. | 11:18 |
| mark_ | Can you recommend a VoIP service that's free and not Ekiga then? | 11:18 |
| moDumass | like gedit sometimes wont open now | 11:18 |
| unop | spi343, hmm, there has to be a better way around this. what group currently (or by default) owns that device? | 11:19 |
| spi343 | unop, root | 11:19 |
| mark_ | I have something called ufw installed,snux. But if I remove it I also remove ubuntu-standard | 11:19 |
| ogzy | msg nickserv identify ozyyar12 | 11:19 |
| unop | spi343, and the permissions? | 11:19 |
| kooothor_ | lol ogzy | 11:20 |
| moDumass | legend2440 so only with gedit sometimes | 11:20 |
| fde | mark_: Don't remove it, it is Ubuntu FireWall | 11:20 |
| k88 | im trying to install ubuntu alternate and stucks on ISOLINUX after displaying a line "initializing glx code", any ideas ? | 11:20 |
| moDumass | otherwise no probs | 11:20 |
| spi343 | unop, crw------- 1 root root 10, 200 2008-04-22 19:49 /dev/net/tun | 11:20 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: hrm | 11:20 |
| ogzy | kooothor_, whats up | 11:20 |
| moDumass | except this localhost/wordpress issue | 11:20 |
| unop | spi343, ok, have a read here. http://www.reactivated.net/writing_udev_rules.html#ownership | 11:20 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: did you do anything with ufw? | 11:20 |
| todd | how do i open the teminal? | 11:20 |
| bazhang | ogzy, try again in server window; we all saw that | 11:20 |
| mark_ | Not that I'm aware of, snux | 11:20 |
| k88 | im trying to install ubuntu alternate and stucks on ISOLINUX after displaying a line "initializing gfx code", any ideas ? | 11:20 |
| spi343 | unop, ok | 11:20 |
| === todd is now known as Guest73739 | ||
| SNuxoll | mark_: hmm | 11:20 |
| kooothor_ | ogzy, everone saw your password mate | 11:21 |
| ogzy | bazhang, i forgot the / thats it | 11:21 |
| mark_ | Perhaps it did something without me knowing | 11:21 |
| DistroJockey | todd_, Applications - Accessories - Terminal | 11:21 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: doubtful | 11:21 |
| bazhang | yup | 11:21 |
| ogzy | kooothor_, ok i am aware of it | 11:21 |
| fde | SNuxoll: It's a dep of ubuntu-standard, which is just a meta-package... but he shouldn't remove it, it is what Ubuntu uses to configure firewall rules in scripts rather than iptables directly. | 11:21 |
| legend2440 | moDumass: open system>pref>network proxy direct connect checked? | 11:21 |

| === Exteris is now known as Exteris^ | ||
| stnsls- | hello | 11:22 |
| === Exteris^ is now known as Exteris | ||
| SNuxoll | fde: I'm quite aware of what ufw is, and that it's part of standard | 11:22 |
| spi343 | unop, i am doing just that, i belive in my case it would be: KERNEL=="tun", GROUP="uml-net", MODE="0660" | 11:22 |
| bazhang | k88, did you md5 the iso? also try re-burning at lower speed | 11:22 |
| stnsls- | Please can someone tell me the path of Python.h in Ubuntu ? | 11:22 |
| SNuxoll | fde: I was asking if he had done anything with it, since it doesn't do anything by default | 11:22 |
| stnsls- | somewhere in /usr/include | 11:22 |
| spi343 | unop, thing is it doesn't get applied i don't know where to set it | 11:22 |
| moDumass | legend2440 direct internet connection is enabled | 11:22 |
| spi343 | unop, from the README file in rules.d it says in 40-* | 11:22 |
| spi343 | unop, like in 40-permissions.rule or in 40-basic-permissions-rules | 11:23 |
| fde | stnsls-: sudo aptitude install apt-file && apt-file update && apt-file search python.h | 11:23 |
| moDumass | legend2440 and under advanced there is "localhost" "127.0.0.0/8" and "*.local" | 11:23 |
| unop | spi343, i am not sure KERNEL="tun" will fully match it -- look further down into the document, there are a couple of utilities (udevinfo particularly) that list the exact properties | 11:23 |
| spi343 | unop, but sudo invoke-rc.d udev restart don't show changes to /dev/net/tun | 11:23 |
| legend2440 | moDumass: anything uner Advanced Tab in that list box? | 11:23 |
| stnsls- | fde: Im not under Ubuntu :) I am developer and I want to check some include path | 11:24 |
| legend2440 | under | 11:24 |
| fde | stnsls-: look on packages.ubuntu.com | 11:24 |
| SNuxoll | stnsls-: you shouldn't be statically inserting include paths anyways :P | 11:24 |
| SNuxoll | stnsls-: use pkg-config to get them | 11:24 |
| spi343 | unop, the device is being named in 20-names.rules with KERNEL=="tun", NAME="net/%k" | 11:24 |
| stnsls- | I am not under ubuntu | 11:24 |
| p | hiii and i have one question whats the best Mac iso for a AMD CPU | 11:25 |
| p | kalyway or leo4all | 11:25 |

| SNuxoll | p: we do not support or condone osx86 | 11:25 |
| legend2440 | moDumass: thats exactly what i have in that list box | 11:25 |
| p | sorry^^ | 11:25 |
| stnsls- | ok guys, thanks .............. | 11:25 |

| mark_ | How do I disable the ubuntu firewall? | 11:28 |
| gordonjcp | mark_: what firewall? | 11:28 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: it shouldn't be enabled by default anyways | 11:28 |
| mark_ | ufw | 11:28 |
| SNuxoll | mark_: if you didn't do anything with it then it should be fine.... | 11:29 |
| DistroJockey | mark_, see man ufw | 11:29 |
| unop | spi343, what's the exact rule you have set there? | 11:29 |
| mark_ | Does Ekiga work with non Gnome DEs? | 11:29 |
| Starnestommy | mark_: it should | 11:30 |
| ^hellfire^ | cze | 11:30 |
| fde | mark_: sure | 11:30 |
| mark_ | Well, it doesn't for me | 11:30 |
| fde | mark_: Ekiga isn't a Gnome app, it is simply a GTK app. | 11:30 |
| theCarpenter | if i programatically make an apt-get call through a bash script, will i have to deal with the y/n dialogue, or accoutn for it somehow? | 11:30 |
| Dillizar | where can i get more info on the ubuntu MID edition? | 11:31 |
| spi343 | unop, grep -r tun /etc/udev/* shows this: /etc/udev/rules.d/20-names.rules:KERNEL=="tun", NAME="net/%k" and /etc/udev/rules.d/40-basic-permissions.rules:KERNEL=="tun", GROUP="uml-net", MODE="0660" | 11:31 |
| centrex | theCarpenter, not if you add -y | 11:31 |
| mark_ | How do I find out what's hogging the port Ekiga wants to use? | 11:31 |
| centrex | mark_, use netstat | 11:31 |
| Starnestommy | mark_: use sudo netstat -alp | grep port-number | 11:31 |
| DistroJockey | Dillizar, goggle gave me: http://www.ubuntu.com/products/mobile | 11:32 |
| Dillizar | lol yes mark_ ekiga sucks | 11:32 |
| DistroJockey | google^ even | 11:32 |
| unop | spi343, i would change the latter to.. KERNEL=="tun", NAME="net/%k", GROUP="uml-net", MODE="0660" | 11:32 |
| mark_ | No result, centrex | 11:32 |
| ogzy | fde, ok thats what i ned but it doesnt show the driver versions | 11:32 |
| unop | spi343, that rule you have there does not match a device name | 11:32 |
| ogzy | fde, anyway to see them? | 11:32 |
| centrex | mark_, well you have to pass it options and grep for things, see what Starnestommy said | 11:33 |
| theCarpenter | centre: So, say, apt-get install -y mypackage | 11:33 |
| mark_ | Oh sorry. | 11:33 |
| mark_ | No result starne | 11:33 |
| centrex | theCarpenter, according to the apt-get man page, yeah | 11:33 |
| pschulz01 | Greetings all... I'm looking into an issue that we are having at work, upgrading the firmware on DELL XPS 1330 machines. | 11:33 |
| theCarpenter | centrex: perfect, thanks :) | 11:33 |
| pschulz01 | I've installed the 'libsmbios-bin', but it doesn't seem to install the new Firmware properly. | 11:34 |
| RainyLithuanian | what's that "i386 chroot" ? | 11:34 |
| spi343 | unop, but none of the other devices are named here , they have only KERNEL and PERMISSION! also says in comment that the names of the devices must no be set here but in 20-names.rules | 11:35 |
| fde | ogzy: Not really... the kernel doesn't even know it seems (cat /proc/modules) ... it's just the version of the module in that kernel. | 11:35 |
| spi343 | unop, it don't make sense .. | 11:35 |
| mark_ | I need to know what ports Ekiga is trying to connect to | 11:35 |

| Dillizar | sowwy DistroJockey i dont have my konversation i am on a irc | 11:37 |
| mien07 | atheros wireless | 11:37 |
| fde | Kousotu: sudo aptitude install sun-java6-plugin flashplugin-nonfree | 11:37 |
| mark_ | How do I find out which port Ekiga wants to use starne? | 11:37 |
| Kousotu | fde: did those | 11:37 |
| ogzy | fde, i know, just questining whether some compiled modules may have versions | 11:37 |
| pputman | mark_, ekiga, is that a sip phone? | 11:38 |
| fde | Kousotu: did you restart Firefox? What does about:plugins have to say? | 11:38 |
| mark_ | Yes | 11:38 |
| pputman | mark_, fyi sip uses multiple ports, and at least one of them is randomly picked from a large range. | 11:38 |
| bullgard4 | Does there exist in Linux a 'recfile' command? "recovers files from a hard disk drive that has defective sectors." I could not find it in Hardy. | 11:38 |
| Kousotu | 2pcs, gimme a sec, I'll check | 11:38 |
| mark_ | Then there's nothing I can do | 11:38 |
| fde | ogzy: I don't understand why you'd want to do that... it's pretty much irrelevant. | 11:38 |
| mark_ | It's uselss | 11:38 |
| mark_ | Useless | 11:38 |
| pputman | mark_, not saying that, I'm just saying that there might be more than one port to consider. | 11:39 |
| sir_ | H-A-L-P. Where do I add resolutions greater than 800x600 for the standard driver? (nVidia driver was a disaster -- not using) | 11:39 |
| Kousotu | fde: where can I find about:plugins? | 11:39 |
| fde | mark_: man iptables ... you want to open the port Ekiga uses... to find that out... check Ekiga preferences. I really don't want to guide you through the steps to accomplish this though, tired. | 11:39 |
| fde | Kousotu: type it into the Firefox address box | 11:40 |
| DistroJockey | bullgard4, photorec (part of testdisk) is worth a look | 11:40 |
| Dillizar | DistroJockey dude i do know how that! but i want more info isnt there a channel or smt | 11:40 |
| fde | mark_: On Ubuntu, ALL ports are closed by default, contrary to others saying no firewall is used. | 11:40 |
| Kousotu | fde: and what am I looking for? | 11:40 |
| fde | Kousotu: Uhh, those plugins? | 11:40 |
| mark_ | Is that why the stupid thing won't work, fde? | 11:40 |
| Kousotu | fde: todem/wmp10/divx/quicktime | 11:41 |
| ogzy | fde, for example i have already compiled and installed my wireless driver, and someone came and wanted to see whether the driver is uptodate or not, he checked the latest tar.gz version and will need to check the current installed one right? | 11:41 |
| fde | mark_: Almost certainly... also, are you using a router? You need to enable port forwarding (aka, you need to tell the router that incoming on that port goes to your computer) | 11:41 |
| Starnestommy | mark_: if a program needs to open ports, then it'll open those ports on its own unless there's a firewall rule keeping them from doing tjay | 11:41 |
| Starnestommy | *that | 11:41 |
| fde | Kousotu: Then you didn't install them, or you didn't restart Firefox... | 11:41 |
| mark_ | I'm not using a router I'm just a normal computer user | 11:41 |
| mark_ | Not an admin | 11:41 |

| Kousotu | fde: I'll check the error in a min, updating that onme | 11:42 |
| unop | spi343, well, i have the same configuration as you, and same permissions - which does not make sense. anyway, it does not hurt to be a little more explicit and define a name like i did up there. same done here. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=449493 | 11:42 |
| DistroJockey | Dillizar, #ubuntu-mobile maybe | 11:42 |
| sir_ | /msg ubuntu etiquette | 11:42 |
| th0r | fde, you said Ubuntu blocks all ports by default. My xubuntu install has no rules in iptables, which I believe means everything is open | 11:42 |
| mark_ | I just think Ekiga is broken in Hardy | 11:42 |
| mark_ | That's the only possible explanation | 11:42 |
| ogzy | fde, but i stil want to see my compiled drivers version | 11:42 |
| Kousotu | mein | 11:42 |
| fde | ogzy: Out of tree drivers are an entirely different cattle of fish, it's up to whoever maintains those drivers to do versioning etc... try apt-cache show <module-for-driver> | grep Version | 11:42 |
| Kousotu | you still floating around? | 11:43 |
| Kousotu | mark: ekiga is fine, I use it often | 11:43 |
| erUSUL | th0r: ubuntu by default has no open ports becouse nothing is listening on them (no service is enabled by default) | 11:43 |
| ogzy | fde apt-cache-show is for deb packages right not the ones compiled via make and then insmod | 11:43 |
| mark_ | I bet you don't use it in Hardy running a non standard DE | 11:43 |
| th0r | erUSUL, ok...that I can agree with <smile> | 11:43 |
| RainyLithuanian | ok, I'm trying to install ip1500 canon printer drivers on 64-bit | 11:44 |
| beawesomeinstead | hey folks! does anyone know how to send glob | 11:44 |
| fde | ogzy: That is entirely unsupported. | 11:44 |
| beawesomeinstead | send global message from shell? | 11:44 |
| mark_ | Anyway. It's broken | 11:44 |
| Kousotu | mark_: i un it on hardy, donno what that other stuff is lol | 11:44 |
| unop | spi343, if all else fails, you can set the permissions on the tap device from within the vbox init script or /etc/rc.local .. http://www.sharedmemory.net/mywiki/VirtualBox | 11:44 |
| RainyLithuanian | I was told to use alien on deb and to link lib's to some kind of directory | 11:44 |
| RainyLithuanian | how can I link lib's somewhere? | 11:45 |
| bullgard4 | DistroJockey: Thank you for your information. | 11:45 |
| fde | th0r: idk where the rule is, but for instance look up CUPS issues with Ubuntu, many people started many flames because they crippled CUPS by not allowing any incoming connections. | 11:45 |
| Kousotu | mien07: you still here? | 11:45 |
| DistroJockey | bullgard4, you're welcome. Good luck | 11:45 |
| th0r | beawesomeinstead, wall | 11:45 |
| ogzy | fde, let me be more spesific because my question is not related with apt database, r8180 is the module i have already installed, any way to see its version? | 11:45 |

| RainyLithuanian | "The solution is so simple: you've got to link libraries in /usr/lib32, not usr/lib!" (speaking hopefully about alien) how to use that simple solution? | 11:46 |

| mark_ | Linphone is just confusing | 11:48 |

| pputman | mark_, twinkle is the best one I've messed with, but tbh, the amount of soft phones for linux that work well is kind of disappointing. | 11:48 |

| pputman | kiax is nice if you can use iax instead of sip | 11:49 |
| fde | th0r: nm, it has ENABLED=no in before.rules by default... so idk where it's configuring everything as drop :/ | 11:49 |

| ubottu | Hicks1gb: please see above | 11:49 |
| balle_ | Kosoutu and geirha: yes i am running the gnome window manager and i have tried dragging it in, installing it from appereance and installing it from the terminal | 11:49 |
| balle_ | nothing works | 11:49 |
| Kousotu | ppl and beating me with bots lol | 11:49 |
| H-A-L-P | <---- needs some help on screen resolution parms | 11:49 |
| th0r | fde, you can, if I remember correctly, enable the firewall at initial install. Maybe that is where we are seeing it differently | 11:49 |
| Kousotu | balle: where did you get the theme? | 11:50 |
| geirha | balle_: do you have an url to the theme? | 11:50 |
| fde | th0r: you can't unless you do an expert install | 11:50 |
| balle_ | geirha: http://themes.freshmeat.net/projects/atermetacity/ | 11:50 |
| mark_ | Twinkle uses over 29 megs | 11:50 |
| fde | th0r: even then, I don't think it's there in the alternate install | 11:50 |
| th0r | fde, yeah...I always review all the items to make sure things like that (firewall ON) don't happen without my knowledge | 11:50 |
| fde | mark_: about as much as firefox | 11:51 |
| moulded | Can you set specific SetEnvIfNoCase (mod_deflate) settings within an apache include? | 11:51 |
| Kousotu | fde: the laptop is using gutsy, if that makes a difference | 11:51 |
| mark_ | YEah. Which is why I use Seamonkey | 11:51 |
| balle_ | geirha: can i use compiz for ubuntu? trying now... | 11:51 |
| fde | th0r: there is no option, anywhere, ubuntu doesn't even have a GUI firewall tool currently. (unless you count firestarter and friends...) | 11:51 |
| balle_ | geirha: it appears it is already installed, but do you know what it's called in the start session thing on the log on screen? | 11:52 |
| morbyt1 | ayeee help. i my consoles are gone (ctrl-alt-f1 to f7). i mean: i can switch there, but theres no login-window. help! | 11:52 |
| RainyLithuanian | how to remove a directory via shell? | 11:52 |
| geirha | balle_: system -> preferences -> appearance, visual effects tab. If your system can run compiz, it's probably enabled allready | 11:52 |
| fde | th0r: either way, try to connect to your Ubuntu box from another... you can't | 11:52 |
| Kousotu | morbyt1: 1-6 are all terminals | 11:52 |
| fde | RainyLithuanian: rm | 11:52 |
| RainyLithuanian | rm doesn't work:) | 11:53 |
| th0r | fde, the first thing I always do is install ssh, so I know I can | 11:53 |
| fde | RainyLithuanian: uhh... rm -r | 11:53 |
| morbyt1 | Kousotu: yes. i know. i want them. but i cant login there... (no login prompt) | 11:53 |
| fde | th0r: try any game etc | 11:53 |
| DistroJockey | moulded, I think you would be better off asking in #apache | 11:53 |
| pepe_ur | hi. i installed JeOS on a fresh VM. However when i connect ssh via putty all special characters the server sends are not displayed correctly. e.g. the german character 'ä' becomes 'ä'. what can I do? | 11:53 |
| paul_5666 | hi is there a way to set my bandwidth at a set rate but return it to normal at a scheduled time? | 11:54 |
| Kousotu | RainyLithuanian: rm -rf <dir> (this can be dangerious if you're not careful) | 11:54 |
| RainyLithuanian | thanks:) | 11:54 |
| geirha | balle_: system -> preferences -> appearance, visual effects tab. If your system can run compiz, it's probably enabled allready | 11:54 |
| moDumass | sorry got disconnected | 11:54 |
| fde | pepe_ur: use a better ssh client | 11:54 |
| mark_ | Can anyone connect to freeworld dialup? | 11:54 |
| Exuro | hello | 11:54 |
| Kousotu | !hi | 11:54 |
| ubottu | Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 11:54 |
| Exuro | I've been working for hours trying to get my wireless card to work | 11:54 |
| fde | Exuro: what card? | 11:55 |
| moDumass | hey all, i uninstalled anonproxy, any idea how to fix my machine | 11:55 |
| Kousotu | Exuro: whhat card? | 11:55 |
| Exuro | and somehow I managed to completely kill the wlan0 device... | 11:55 |
| balle_ | Geirha: aha! it's the visual part my labtop can't do, because no drivers fo rmy gfx card yet, not any that works anyway... | 11:55 |
| Exuro | when I run ifconfig, it's not there anymore | 11:55 |
| fde | Exuro: what card? | 11:55 |
| Kousotu | Exuro: what network card are you usingf? | 11:55 |
| pepe_ur | fde: like? ssh tectia doesn't work either | 11:55 |
| legend2440 | moDumass: in terminal type set | grep -i proxy does it return anything? | 11:56 |
| * fde wonders what tectia is | 11:56 | |
| balle_ | geirha: well, could you help me on the ATER theme? | 11:56 |
| Exuro | BCM4318 [AirForce One 54g] 802.11g Wireless LAN Controller | 11:56 |
| Kousotu | Exuro: who makes it? | 11:56 |
| fde | Exuro: lsmod | grep b43 return anything? | 11:56 |
| pepe_ur | fde: its the proprietary client ssh.com provides for a lot of money | 11:57 |
| geirha | balle_: I just tried it myself, and I got the same result as you ... didn't show up. Looking into it | 11:57 |
| Kousotu | fde: do you have a link to the 64bit hardy cd iso? | 11:57 |
| Exuro | nope, lsmod | grep b43 returns blank | 11:57 |
| SNuxoll | I use PuTTY as a SSH client on Windows.... | 11:57 |
| SNuxoll | why spend a bunch of money on one? | 11:57 |
| Kousotu | Exuro: wh makes the card? I'm unfamiliar with it | 11:58 |
| Kousotu | who* | 11:58 |
| fde | SNuxoll: I wouldn't touch Windows, and if I had to, it'd have Cygwin on it. | 11:58 |
| Exuro | I actually got it working so that I could *see* our wireless network earlier, but then I couldn't connect so I tried some other stuff, and then wlan0 disappeared! | 11:58 |
| balle_ | geirha: thx man i just noticed that i can select window borders just fine from the theme, but nothing else | 11:58 |
| fde | SNuxoll: or at least Unix Tools for Windows. | 11:58 |
| code_ | if i have set phising protection etc... on sites through opendns can I get through to those sites on 1 particular computer? | 11:58 |
| Exuro | Broadcom | 11:58 |
| Dusk_ | does open sourced nv drivers have powermizer ability?? | 11:58 |
| pepe_ur | SNuxoll: well, putty displays the utf8 characters as two ascii ones, does not look nice | 11:58 |
| fde | Exuro: lsmod | grep bcm43xx? | 11:58 |
| code_ | if i have set phising protection etc... on sites through opendns can I get through to those sites on 1 particular computer? | 11:59 |
| fde | Kousotu: cdimage.ubuntu.com ... look around in releases etc | 11:59 |
| Kousotu | fde: thanks | 11:59 |
| AlmightyCthulhu | SNuxoll!!! :) | 11:59 |
| geirha | balle_: yes, I think that's what you have to do. The theme is only a metacity theme, and that will only change the borders, you need a gtk+/gnome-theme to change the "insides" of windows | 11:59 |
| SNuxoll | AlmightyCthulhu!!! ??? | 11:59 |
| Kousotu | site is a mess lol | 11:59 |
| ZStar | almighty gesuntheit | 11:59 |
| mark_ | Gotta go | 11:59 |
| Exuro | lsmod | grep bcm also returns blank | 11:59 |
| mark_ | Thanks for trying guys | 11:59 |
| balle_ | geirha: i'm trying to install the mplayer reffered to by the developer, ahh thx man! and i just liked the picture | 12:00 |
| fde | Exuro: there's your first problem... heh... what version of Ubuntu? | 12:00 |
| geirha | balle_: http://illusions.hu/index.php?task=100&statpage=23 here's a "full" theme | 12:00 |
| balle_ | geirha: ahhh, yes of course... thx man | 12:01 |
| Exuro | I just downloaded the new image | 12:01 |
| Exuro | 8.04 | 12:01 |
| geirha | balle_: no sorry, I just read at the bottom that the GTK-theme isn't complete yet | 12:01 |
| AlmightyCthulhu | SNuxoll=Awesomeness | 12:02 |
| fde | Exuro: lsb_release -r | 12:02 |
| AlmightyCthulhu | that's all | 12:02 |
| balle_ | geirha: i'll just check it out anyways, i have to start reading those descriptions | 12:03 |
| Exuro | yeah, it's 8.04 | 12:03 |
| geirha | balle_: there are alot of nice gtk 2.x themes at gnome-look.org btw | 12:03 |
| fde | Exuro: cool... aptitude install b43-fwcutter ... if it's there, go to http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/b43#devicefirmware ... follow the second grey box | 12:04 |
| fde | Exuro: The first one gets you b43-fwcutter, but aptitude installed that already :) | 12:05 |
| balle_ | geirha: thx, btw what window manager are you using? i've tried out fluxbox but couldnt get the terminal to stick on the dekstop... | 12:05 |
| Exuro | it's installed | 12:05 |
| Exuro | if I click System->Administration->Hardware Drivers | 12:05 |
| moDumass | <legend2440> sorry for delayed response, indeed it does, http://www.pastebin.org/59994 | 12:05 |
| Exuro | it lists "Broadcom B4 wireless driver" | 12:05 |
| Exuro | says it's "Enabled" but "Not In Use" | 12:06 |
| fde | Exuro: You downloaded and installed broadcom-wl ? | 12:06 |
| k88 | is there any way to execute ubuntu install from command line (without booting from cdrom) | 12:06 |
| Kousotu | Exuro: have you restarted since installing it? | 12:06 |
| Exuro | I had the driver working and I could see my networks | 12:06 |
| Kousotu | k88: use the alternate cd? | 12:06 |
| Exuro | but then the whole wireless interface disappeared after I did something to it | 12:06 |
| Kousotu | Exuro: have you restarted since installing it? | 12:06 |
| Exuro | yes | 12:07 |
| Oli`` | Is there any way to speed up VirtualBox's network speed? I'm trying to access large host files from the guest (over SMB) and it's taking a ridiculous amount of time | 12:07 |
| k88 | alternate cd doesn't boot either | 12:07 |
| Exuro | I've restarted several times | 12:07 |
| Kousotu | k88: the cds don't boot in boot order? | 12:07 |
| Exuro | it doesn't make wlan0 come back | 12:07 |
| geirha | balle_: using the default window-manager metacity/compiz, with slickness theme | 12:07 |
| Kousotu | Exuro: one sec | 12:07 |
| k88 | Kousotu, isolinux crashes | 12:07 |
| fde | Exuro: sudo modprobe b43 ... if it returns anything, paste.ubuntu.com 'dmesg | tail -n20' | 12:07 |
| k88 | Kousotu, bios boot from cdrom works fine | 12:07 |
| Exuro | maybe I bumped the hardware out? | 12:07 |
| Kousotu | k88: what are you trying to put it on? | 12:07 |
| Exuro | I don't know... | 12:07 |
| balle_ | geirha: okay thx | 12:07 |
| Teisei | Yeah ! I can browse for computers in my network ! I've been waiting for this fix for so long. (I'm using Intrepid Ibex ^^; ) | 12:07 |
| Kousotu | Exuro: most likely a HAL is in the way | 12:08 |
| fde | Exuro: If it returns nothing, that's good :) | 12:08 |
| legend2440 | moDumass: in terminal type unset http_proxy then set | grep -i proxy does it still return that proxy stuff? | 12:08 |
| k88 | Kousotu, i just wondered if there is any executable inside ubuntu install cdrom that i can run | 12:08 |
| Kousotu | Exuro: check syatem> administration > hardware drivers (or similar) | 12:08 |
| fde | Kousotu: He JUST said the result of that. | 12:08 |
| Kousotu | k88: not that I know of, unless you want wubi | 12:09 |
| Exuro | [27902.432434] b43: disagrees about version of symbol ssb_dma_translation | 12:09 |
| Exuro | [27902.432438] b43: Unknown symbol ssb_dma_translation | 12:09 |
| fortsev | will my file system and settings persist if i upgrade my ubuntu release? | 12:09 |
| k88 | wubi installs ubuntu in partition or inside windows ? :/ | 12:09 |
| Kousotu | k88: in windows | 12:09 |
| fde | Exuro: Have you restarted since the interface went down? Maybe a reboot will stop the kernel from being confused. | 12:09 |
| Kousotu | fde: no, he said the interface went away, not the same thing, at least how I see it | 12:10 |
| Exuro | if I click System->Administration->Hardware Drivers it lists "Broadcom B4 wireless driver" says it's "Enabled" but "Not In Use" | 12:10 |
| Kousotu | my laptop's went away untill I disabled the atheros HAL in gutsy | 12:11 |
| Exuro | I restarted several times | 12:11 |
| Exuro | tried installing the drivers again | 12:11 |
| Kousotu | Exuro: try disabling it and restarting | 12:11 |
| Exuro | but then I realized that wlan0 had disappeared | 12:11 |
| Teisei | Hey. Can somebody tell why I get kernel panic and cpu failure when I enable Core multi-processing in BIOS ? I have dual core processor, but I'm running on single core mode. I'd like to use both cores :( | 12:11 |
| fde | Kousotu: Well, it likely went down because of some kernel conflict - whatever ssb_dma_translation is ... I'd like to see if restarting will make the kernel agree again :) | 12:11 |
| moDumass | legend2440 it does, this is what it returns | 12:11 |
| moDumass | sorry | 12:11 |
| Exuro | and after trying for a few hours to figure out how to add it again | 12:11 |
| Exuro | I gave up and came here | 12:11 |
| fde | Kousotu: Any ideas what might conflict? | 12:12 |
| Kousotu | fde: yep | 12:12 |
| Kousotu | fde: same crap happens on mine | 12:12 |
| Kousotu | only I have an atheros | 12:12 |
| geirha | k88: You can browse the CD from windows, right? but not boot it, and you can boot other CDs? like the windows CD? | 12:12 |
| moDumass | legend2440 this is what it returns http://www.pastebin.org/60009 | 12:12 |
| anhhung | how do I add additional files to an ISO image before burning it? | 12:12 |
| Exuro | I've restarted like 6 times... | 12:12 |
| Kousotu | Exuro: listen to me | 12:12 |
| Exuro | you really want me to disable it and try again? | 12:13 |
| Exuro | okay, I'll be back shortly then... | 12:13 |
| Kousotu | Exuro: disable it in hardware drivers, reboot and come back here | 12:13 |
| J-_ | will !puregnome work with the deinstall of kde4 if I'm not satisfied? | 12:13 |

| Exuro | I've been at it for hours, and I finally gave up and came here | 12:26 |
| Exuro | originally there was an error there about needing to download the firmware | 12:26 |
| Exuro | but I did that and installed everything I needed | 12:27 |
| Exuro | but then I killed it somehow... | 12:27 |
| fde | Exuro: Do me a favor, just for kicks... echo 'blacklist ssb | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist ... restart | 12:27 |
| fde | Exuro: there's a quote before blacklist and after ssb ... sorry | 12:27 |
| fde | (forgot after ssb) | 12:28 |
| Kousotu | fde: flash just needed an update on gutsy, workign fine now | 12:28 |
| moDumass | legend2440 this is the output http://www.pastebin.org/60033 | 12:28 |
| fde | I hate illogical things... this is illogical... it should have at least complained if it's not going to do what was asked >:| | 12:28 |
| b0xxy | when i adduser and chmod that user to a folder, is there a userlist where i can go into and clean up all the inactive ftp usernames | 12:28 |
| Exuro | echo 'blacklist ssb' | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | 12:29 |
| Exuro | ? | 12:29 |
| Kousotu | Exuro: yes | 12:29 |
| Exuro | that just echos "blacklist ssb" when I do it | 12:29 |
| fde | Exuro: yes... to ensure it worked 'cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | tail -n1 | 12:29 |
| fde | Exuro: that's normal | 12:29 |
| Exuro | ooh | 12:29 |

| Exuro | okay, brb | 12:30 |
| fde | unop: I'm guessing the ooh was the verification... | 12:30 |
| legend2440 | moDumass: ok try this in terminal type cd /home/yourusername then grep -i --ftpproxy --ftpport --justdb --httpproxy --httpport again | 12:30 |
| unop | a restart shouldn't be necessary - just unload the module | 12:30 |
| fde | unop: The module is unloaded... but the device isn't recognized still... and there is no errors in dmesg at all | 12:31 |

| fde | Chaotic_Descent: Why are you wanting to use XMMS? Try audacious maybe? (fork of old xmms) | 12:57 |
| Chaotic_Descent | sudo: update-menus: command not found | 12:58 |
| Exuro | Kousotu: 1) I don't know how to use it 2) it won't bring the wlan0 device back will it? | 12:58 |
| moDumass | i love both of you, i have my localhost back | 12:58 |
| DocWolf | hey guys got a question I installed epic through synaptic and its not showing up any idea whats going on here? | 12:58 |
| Vegombrei | hi is there a place on irc where i could download music ? | 12:58 |
| Kousotu | Exuro: 1: I'll help you 2: yes | 12:58 |
| moDumass | legend2440 thanks man/person, that was awesome, i have localhost back | 12:58 |
| citizen42alpha | Vegombrei = yes. | 12:58 |
| fde | ra21vi: In Ubuntu, run levels 2-5 are exactly the same. | 12:58 |
| Kousotu | Exuro: it will bring back wlan, that's how I use my card | 12:58 |
| legend2440 | moDumass: ok is gedit opening any better now? | 12:58 |
| unop | Chaotic_Descent, hmm, not sure, i don't use gnome all that much. perhaps a logout and log back in then? | 12:58 |
| Vegombrei | citizen42alpha: could you please help me bro | 12:58 |
| fde | ra21vi: soo... doing that would accomplish nothing at all :P | 12:59 |
| Chaotic_Descent | fde: because I don't know how to find the good apps. I'll try that one. | 12:59 |
| remsoft | hi everybody | 12:59 |
| DocWolf | mornin rem | 12:59 |
| filox | i have installed postfix, so everyname goes in /var/mail/username , i use mail command to read it, how can i read it from another computer with like a pop/imap server? | 12:59 |
| Kousotu | hey remsoft | 12:59 |
| Exuro | oh, alright then | 12:59 |
| Exuro | what do I do? | 12:59 |
| remsoft | can you help me to install ubuntu on my USB key | 12:59 |
| fde | ra21vi: I can tell you how to though, so you can know for other Linux machines... and to prove I'm right | 12:59 |
| HymnToLife | filox: install a pop/imap server ;) | 12:59 |
| Kousotu | exuro: in ssnaptic search ndiswrapper | 13:00 |
| HymnToLife | filox: doevecot is a good choice | 13:00 |
| filox | HymnToLife | 13:00 |
| Chaotic_Descent | fde: Thanks. This thing is more like WinAmp. I can actually play files instead of having to navigate through ID3 tags of every single song I have. | 13:00 |
| filox | HymnToLife is best cyrus or dovecot? | 13:00 |
| Kousotu | it will give a few items, insall anything that starts with "ndiswrapper" | 13:00 |
| unop | filox, you need to setup a pop/imap server - dovecot might work best | 13:00 |
| fde | Chaotic_Descent: yw | 13:00 |
| DocWolf | remsoft check out https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick | 13:00 |

| legend2440 | moDumass: ok is gedit opening any better now? | 13:01 |
| filox | HymnToLife is there any good alternative to exchange? | 13:01 |
| Vegombrei | is there any p2p software like limewire for ubuntu ? | 13:01 |
| fde | filox: openxchange comes to mind... what exactly do you need though? just mail? | 13:01 |
| Kousotu | Exuro: you good for oh... 30 sec while I reboot? | 13:01 |
| Opalinus | @vegombrei try aMule | 13:02 |
| fde | Vegombrei: lets see... there is Limewire... | 13:02 |
| ogzy | it should be when i try to ... sorry for typo | 13:02 |
| filox | HymnToLife can i talk to you in private | 13:02 |
| filox | ? | 13:02 |
| fde | Vegombrei: it is java, so is cross platform. | 13:02 |
| HymnToLife | filox: I don't think so, lots of people are whining about it :p | 13:02 |
| HymnToLife | (abount an Exchange replacement, that is) | 13:02 |
| HymnToLife | and sure, go ahead | 13:02 |
| fde | Vegombrei: personally, I'd recommend gtk-gnutella over limewire though | 13:02 |
| Vegombrei | fde: hehehe they have a limewire for ubuntu ?? what do you mean by cross platform ? | 13:02 |
| filox | HymnToLife i have an active directory (AD) and an exchange 2000 | 13:02 |
| Pici | !p2p > Vegombrei | 13:02 |
| ubottu | Vegombrei, please see my private message | 13:02 |
| filox | contact address calendar | 13:02 |
| Kousotu | fde: frostwire is what I'd recommend | 13:02 |
| filox | exchange db is fulll | 13:03 |
| filox | i need an unklimited mail server | 13:03 |
| unop | filox, novell's groupwise might be the best alternative to exchange - though, i am not sure about licensing and costs. | 13:03 |
| HymnToLife | filox: yeah, I don't think there's a *nix alternative for it | 13:03 |
| Kousotu | anywhos.. I'll brb guys | 13:03 |
| HymnToLife | it's something lots of people whine about | 13:03 |
| fde | Kousotu: never tried it... can it connect to multiple different gnutella networks? | 13:03 |
| backenfutter | is there somebody in here, who knows his way around with psybnc? | 13:03 |
| Vegombrei | fde: can i apt-get install gtk-gnutella ?? | 13:04 |
| fde | Vegombrei: yes | 13:04 |
| ActionParsnip | Vegombrei: id try tab completing the package name to make sure | 13:04 |
| filox | HymnToLife i found zimbra community, kolab, scalix...... u know? | 13:04 |
| filox | and postpath | 13:04 |
| Vegombrei | ActionParsnip: how do i do that ? | 13:04 |
| hotspot | server nomi.cz | 13:05 |
| Exuro | it's installed | 13:05 |
| fde | Vegombrei: you hit tab say after 'gtk-g' ... or something... it's there though, he just doesn't trust me | 13:05 |
| DocWolf | remsoft see pm please | 13:05 |
| fde | Vegombrei: Or he's trying to teach you good habits, one or the other | 13:05 |
| ActionParsnip | Vegombrei: do you use tab to complete commands and filenames? | 13:05 |
| Vegombrei | fde :) | 13:05 |
| filox | anyone who try zimbra? | 13:05 |
| oobe | _joker, got your attention didnt i | 13:05 |
| thomc | Is it possible to access in Windows an external disk that was encrypted in Ubuntu? | 13:06 |
| ActionParsnip | fde: they are good habits that destroy normal typing | 13:06 |
| Vegombrei | ActionParsnip: dude nothing happens when i hit tab after gtk-gn | 13:06 |
| fde | Vegombrei: In the Linux world, only the uninitiated actually type out full commands or paths... the rest of us break our tab keys | 13:06 |
| JennyG | lol | 13:06 |
| DocWolf | hear that fde | 13:06 |
| ActionParsnip | Vegombrei: then it doesnt exist | 13:06 |
| qwert666_ | i have a problem with Ati Catalyst COntrol Center http://pastie.org/private/enebhiwk5hb3s3xukhxbg any clues ? | 13:06 |

| fde | Vegombrei: for more fun, sud[tab] apt-g[tab] i[tab] gtk-g[tab] | 13:08 |
| Vegombrei | fde: i think ActionParsnip is right .. there is no gtk-gnutella | 13:08 |
| fde | Vegombrei: it's in universe | 13:08 |
| ActionParsnip | Vegombrei: try tabbing whever you wanna type stuff, saves time | 13:08 |
| qwert666_ | DocWolf: ok | 13:08 |
| Vegombrei | fde: now dude you dont expect me to build a rocket and go looking for it in the universe bro | 13:09 |
| ActionParsnip | Vegombrei: you can even sudo apt-g(tab) ins(tab) firef(tab) | 13:09 |
| adi_smg | aerin | 13:09 |
| fde | Vegombrei: haha... System > Administration > Software Sources ... first tab ... make sure the top 4 check boxes are checked... | 13:09 |
| fde | ActionParsnip: just i[tab] | 13:10 |
| Vegombrei | ActionParsnip: yeah i didnt know ubuntu had tab for predictive text .. makes things much easier bro | 13:10 |

| ActionParsnip | Vegombrei: its been in linux for ages, xp does it too in cmd.exe | 13:10 |
| fde | Vegombrei: makes it REALLY annoying to go to other distros :P | 13:10 |
| Vegombrei | fde: them top four boxes are checked | 13:10 |
| Vegombrei | ActionParsnip: really ... i didnt know that .. but hey i ditched windows a few months ago .. am happy with ubuntu and i use mac at work | 13:11 |
| fde | fde@trinity:~$ apt-cache search gtk-gnutella | 13:11 |

| fde | Exuro: didn't say | 13:13 |
| Vegombrei | fde: so how do i get gtk ? | 13:14 |
| murlidhar | i have dual booted intrepid and hardy . now i want to have the grub of hardy used instead of intrepid cuz i have to remove intrepid on this machine . how to do that ? | 13:14 |
| fde | Vegombrei: sudo aptitude install gtk-gnutella <-- copy and paste | 13:14 |
| ActionParsnip | !grub | murlidhar | 13:15 |
| ubottu | murlidhar: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto | 13:15 |
| fde | murlidhar: boot to hardy and 'grub-install /dev/hda' for instance | 13:15 |
| Exuro | *sigh*, he said he was restarting and he'd be back before the package installed... | 13:15 |
| Vegombrei | fde: downloading ..... thanks | 13:16 |
| fde | Exuro: do you have your Windows wireless drivers? | 13:16 |
| Exuro | I think so | 13:16 |
| DocWolf | blech gatesware | 13:16 |
| fde | Exuro: if so, throw them in the machine, and look for a .inf file ... then 'ndiswrapper -i whatever.inf' ... then ndiswrapper -l ... should say it's there | 13:17 |
| fde | DocWolf: His broadcom isn't supported | 13:17 |
| DocWolf | I got mine to work | 13:17 |
| fde | DocWolf: Cool, doesn't mean they all do... I've gotten about 40 different ones working | 13:17 |
| ActionParsnip | Exuro: get the driver from manufacturers website | 13:18 |

| hubuntu | how do I add a user to the sudoers file? | 13:19 |
| hubuntu | usermod -a -G sudo username | 13:19 |
| hubuntu | ? | 13:19 |
| fde | hubuntu: no | 13:19 |
| fde | hubuntu: visudo | 13:19 |
| hubuntu | visudo is that a command? | 13:19 |
| fde | hubuntu: yes... follow the syntax in the file already | 13:20 |
| hubuntu | thx fde | 13:20 |
| geirha | hubuntu: if you want the user to be able to run programs using sudo, then "sudo adduser the_user admin" | 13:20 |
| geirha | hubuntu: all users that are a member of the admin group can use sudo in the "default" way | 13:20 |
| iopk | my server has a RAID10 configuration, which should allow for 1 disk to fail but the system to continue working. However, is there a way to monitor WHEN a disk failed, so that we can change it with a correct disk? | 13:20 |
| Bigmack83 | i am going to be setting up a ubuntu server for my website, does anyone know of any good tutorials or how-to's for setting up ubuntu server as a web host. tips, tricks, etc... | 13:21 |
| Bigmack83 | or things like what apps i should have to have a good setup | 13:21 |
| fde | geirha: ahh, you taught me something - or rather pointed something new out... used to be it added the actual user in there, not auto-added to the group... hmm | 13:21 |
| fde | !lamp > Bigmack83 A good start would be | 13:22 |
| ubottu | Bigmack83, please see my private message | 13:22 |
| geirha | Bigmack83: try a google with the three keywords: lamp ubuntu server | 13:22 |
| hubuntu | geirha I'm going to try that, thanks.. vim is just not my thing. | 13:22 |
| marius | hi, i have 2 soundcards in my pc and at the audio settings gui one picked, and it works, but under firefox the flsahplayer plays the sound on the second one | 13:22 |
| hubuntu | geirha, it says the admin group does not exist... | 13:23 |
| hubuntu | should I try adm? | 13:23 |
| eky | fdsadf | 13:23 |
| fde | hubuntu: It uses $EDITOR ... you're $EDITOR is just vim | 13:23 |
| kou | Exuro: you here? | 13:23 |
| kou | sorry, MY pc crashed! | 13:23 |
| fde | hubuntu: what version of Ubuntu? | 13:23 |
| s33nagain | Why is there nobody here? last night there were 1200 somthing people here? | 13:23 |
| geirha | hubuntu: hm, which ubuntu release are you using | 13:23 |
| hubuntu | fde which file is it then? | 13:23 |
| s33nagain | is the bot here? | 13:23 |
| hubuntu | 8.04 | 13:23 |
| fde | hubuntu: I'd rather not say, you can screw things up if you edit it directly | 13:23 |

| kou | lol | 13:24 |
| ActionParsnip | 1301 > 1200 | 13:24 |
| geirha | hubuntu: there really should be an admin group ... have you removed any groups by any chance? | 13:24 |
| fde | hubuntu: visudo has some safeguards so you don't mess up | 13:24 |
| kou | Exuro: hello.... | 13:24 |
| Nillerz | Hello everyone | 13:24 |
| hubuntu | no geirha, but maybe ebox did... I installed it, gave me 1000 errors so I removed it. | 13:24 |
| Bigmack83 | i got the PM. well my site will be a ful server with a pretty decent amount of traffick. how well does lamp hold up compared to installing mysql/php/apache independantly? | 13:24 |
| ogzy | i am not able to change my dma settings via hdparm -X udma5 /dev/sda, i got HDIO_DRIVE_CMD(setxfermode) failed: Input/output error, any solution without compiling kernel? | 13:24 |
| fde | kou: I told him how to set up ndiswrapper, I think he's doing that atm | 13:24 |
| === kou is now known as kousotu | ||
| larson9999 | far less if you weed out those with characters i can't type in their nicks :) not that a guy with 4 9's in his has room to talk. | 13:25 |
| fde | Bigmack83: umm... it's the same thing | 13:25 |
| kousotu | thanks fde | 13:25 |
| joaopinto | Bigmack83, lamp is mysql+php+apache | 13:25 |
| kousotu | I repartioned vist and it went nuts | 13:25 |
| kousotu | it keeps bsoding, I'm reinstaling my backup | 13:25 |
| Exuro | oh | 13:25 |
| larson9999 | kousotu, might be the nicest thing that's ever happened to you :) | 13:25 |
| Bigmack83 | fde: Yea i know lamp is all those, i just didnt know if there would be any performance difference | 13:25 |
| Exuro | hello | 13:25 |
| fde | kousotu: changing partition table on a live system? | 13:25 |
| kousotu | fde: huh? | 13:26 |
| joaopinto | Bigmack83, erm, performance differences between what ? different names for the same software group | 13:26 |
| kousotu | fde: I used Gparted | 13:26 |
| geirha | hubuntu: ouch. And you don't see the admin group when you type "groups" as your user? | 13:26 |
| Vegombrei | fde: dude gtk-gnutella seriously rocks dude ..its waaay better than limewire | 13:26 |
| fde | Bigmack83: you can't install 'lamp' (well, you probably can... but it'll be a meta package) | 13:26 |
| hubuntu | no geirha | 13:26 |
| fde | Vegombrei: :) | 13:26 |
| s33nagain | Hello? | 13:26 |
| kousotu | (ystem obviously didn't have uuntu on it yet) | 13:26 |
| hubuntu | I do not see it even when I am root | 13:26 |
| hubuntu | su - | 13:26 |
| kousotu | ubuntu* | 13:26 |
| fde | kousotu: did you umount everything first, or use a livecd? | 13:26 |
| kousotu | fde: yes, and yes | 13:27 |
| alraune | kousotu: defragmented before | 13:27 |
| alraune | kousotu: defragmented before ? | 13:27 |
| hubuntu | geirha, I think ebox is really messy... It just does not work well under 8.04... what a pity | 13:27 |
| larson9999 | while i haven't used vista more than a couple hours, historically it hasn't be too hard to make windows bsod after a partition. | 13:27 |
| kousotu | alraune: and defrag on 500gb on a fresh vista install takes? | 13:28 |
| Exuro | I can't find the driver cd... | 13:28 |
| Exuro | should I just reboot in windows and find it? | 13:28 |
| geirha | hubuntu: seems it has messed your system up quite a bit ... anyway, admin group has gid 113. So try recreating the group: addgroup --gid 113 admin | 13:28 |
| Vegombrei | fde: it wont work .. says im firewalled or something | 13:28 |
| Bigmack83 | ok cool. well im pretty new to using ubuntu/linux and especially a server setup. just didnt know if there was a difference. apparently not. thanks | 13:28 |
| kousotu | exruo: you still have a windows partion on the pc? | 13:28 |
| fde | geirha: it'll be commented out in sudoers file... you mind showing him how to uncomment it in that file, or do you not know how? | 13:28 |
| alraune | kousotu: you had vista on this 500G and wanted to resize it for having space for linux ? | 13:28 |
| kousotu | alraune: exactly | 13:29 |
| fde | Vegombrei: hmm... you should still be able to download from others? | 13:29 |
| hubuntu | The GID 113 is already in use... I guess I will have to restate my vps (again...) and get a fresh start. It's hard to say it but hardy is too buggy for an LTS. | 13:29 |
| kousotu | alraune: wanted to move the 200gb recovery/run partions to about 350 and 100 and and pt ubuntu on the rest | 13:29 |
| alraune | kousotu: as vista wa fresh installed, shoulddn't be much defragmented anyway | 13:29 |
| kousotu | (less space than 50gb though) | 13:29 |
| Vegombrei | it says im firewalled both tcp and udp | 13:30 |
| Vegombrei | fde: it says im firewalled both tcp and udp | 13:30 |
| hubuntu | fde, really just tell me the file I will make a backup and I can access directly as root so it won't get messed up | 13:30 |
| reese | is there a good oss mixer, beside ossxmix? | 13:30 |
| kousotu | alraune: it died on boot lol, so I'll defrag when it's istalled again and go fom there | 13:30 |
| geirha | hubuntu: what does this give: grep ':113:' /etc/group | 13:30 |
| fde | hubuntu: I warned you... /etc/sudoers | 13:30 |
| alraune | kousotu: if I tried that, I would first partition/format the disk.... | 13:31 |
| kousotu | alraune: xp freah is about 15% fragged | 13:31 |
| hubuntu | geirha, you are not going to believe this: clamav:x:113: | 13:31 |
| hubuntu | thanks fde | 13:31 |
| kousotu | alraune: it's oem | 13:31 |
| fde | hubuntu: uncomment '%wheel' ... and edit /etc/groups and put yourself in the wheel group (append your username to the end of the line) | 13:31 |
| Vegombrei | fde: but im actually not firewalled atall | 13:31 |
| kousotu | or believ me, that is wha I would have done | 13:31 |
| kousotu | lol | 13:31 |
| Xecuter | hi! anyone here using ushare? | 13:31 |
| alraune | kousotu: ...so xp,vista and ubuntu oohm oem... | 13:31 |
| kousotu | alraune: my laptop (which I'm on atm) did that | 13:32 |
| fde | Vegombrei: yeah... I don't feel like messing with it right now, and it's not installed here... I use bittorrent these days... but you wanted something like limewire | 13:32 |
| hubuntu | thanx fde | 13:32 |
| kousotu | but no XP on the new desktop | 13:32 |
| kousotu | not yet lol | 13:32 |
| hubuntu | and geirha | 13:32 |
| hubuntu | I'll give it a try | 13:32 |
| fde | hubuntu: if you get confused... ASK | 13:32 |
| Bigmack83 | anyone knoe of any good tutorials for setting up and tweaking an ubuntu server? firewalls, what apps i should have for a server and maybe how to set them up properly. I want to make sure i have everything i need when i set mine up and have it secure as possible | 13:32 |
| Renu | can anybody help me!i don t have sound | 13:32 |
| alraune | kousotu: so the problem u have is that you can't install vista on a smaller partit. then... | 13:33 |
| kousotu | renu: surround: turn it up | 13:33 |
| fde | hubuntu: by 'uncomment' I mean ONLY remove the '#' in the line that has '%wheel ALL=ALL (ALL)' | 13:33 |
| Vegombrei | fde: yeah .. actually i wanted something i could use to download some mp3s ..you know of any other client that might work ? | 13:33 |
| hubuntu | no %wheel | 13:33 |
| fde | hubuntu: there is NOPASSWD also, but that is insecure | 13:33 |
| hubuntu | it seems ebox is been there | 13:33 |
| geirha | hubuntu: oops, I misread, it's 114 in my /etc/group ... but 113 is different too, I guess the gids aren't equal from system to system, even for system groups | 13:33 |
| Renu | i can not hear on sites ,xmms,vlc,i sais that sound card is configure properly | 13:33 |
| citizen42alpha | vego - try frostwire, if it hasn't already been suggested. | 13:33 |
| kousotu | Vegombrei: frostwire | 13:33 |

| alraune | kousotu: I'm no specialist for redmonds licenses, but if you bought it, you might ask microsoft for the problem... lol one way OS.... | 13:36 |
| joaopinto | XiXaQ, sudo apt-get install package (it will only upgrade the packaged and related dependencies) | 13:36 |
| hubuntu | is an option in slicehost too, maybe i'll give it a shot | 13:36 |
| XiXaQ | joaopinto, then, apt-get install linux-generic? | 13:36 |
| kousotu | alraune: I have a few more ticks up my sleve, if all else fails I'll wubi it | 13:36 |

| sulo | hi, is someone here using ubuntu on a mac? | 13:40 |
| s33nagai2 | sulo: whhy? | 13:40 |
| s33nagai2 | I own a mac, so Im sure I might be able to help, but I don't run ubuntu on it... | 13:41 |
| hubuntu | sulo a power pc or a Intel Mac? | 13:41 |
| kousotu | alraune: I havean external, trying to avoid that | 13:41 |
| pulseezar | good afternoon all, just a quick question: If I have two separate hard drives and set them both to mount at / will something screw up? | 13:41 |
| sulo | i installed ubuntu on my macbook.. but everytime i boot i first get a lightblue screen for about a minute .. i dont know how i can get rid of it | 13:41 |
| hubuntu | sulo DO you get into the system after that minute? | 13:42 |
| sulo | yes .. after that minute grub starts and all goes its way | 13:42 |
| s33nagai2 | pulseezar: depends... I don't know... what are on the drives? | 13:42 |
| sulo | but this 1 min waiing sucks ^^ | 13:42 |
| hubuntu | pulseezar, it depends on your configuration (raid) normally the system won't allow you to mount to devices in the same mount point (/ being a mount point and /anotherdrive being another mount point) | 13:43 |
| vins | hi, do you know how to have transparency of windows with fluxbox ? I have installed xcompmgr and transset, ti have activated composite in xorg.conf but I have transparency only on title bar, not on all the window. | 13:43 |
| kousotu | stupid thing... | 13:43 |
| vins | an idea ? | 13:43 |
| hubuntu | I see... I have installed Ubuntu in several macs and never heard of that specific problem | 13:43 |
| kousotu | NOT it's got a 360 and an 54 | 13:43 |
| banisterfiend | hey guys i tried to download the source for a product going: apt-get source ruby but i got this error: E: You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list | 13:43 |
| banisterfiend | what do i do? how do i add sources to my URI? | 13:43 |
| remoteCTR1 | umm... with what command to i unzip a tar.bz2? *blush* | 13:44 |
| banisterfiend | to my sourses.list etc | 13:44 |
| s33nagai2 | pulseezar: Thought it could depend... pulseezar? | 13:44 |
| sulo | hubuntu: i have just ubuntu installed no mac os anymore | 13:44 |
| kousotu | whichmeans I gave Ubuntu too much space lol | 13:44 |
| kousotu | ah well... | 13:44 |
| sulo | i did: make msdos disklabel... and then installed ubuntu on the whole hdd | 13:44 |
| pulseezar | s33nagai2: one is the file system, one is just for storage but is empty for now | 13:44 |
| sulo | hubuntu: how did you do it? | 13:44 |
| hubuntu | sulo then I would file a bug in launchpad.net and seek advice there... | 13:45 |
| s33nagai2 | pulseezar: Why do you want to mount them both to "/"? | 13:45 |
| pulseezar | the empty drive is set to mount at /users/local | 13:45 |
| hubuntu | sulo: I just installed it in another partition, always kept Mac OS X | 13:45 |
| pulseezar | i thought that might be the reason it wasn't showing up in "computer" screen on the file browser | 13:46 |
| hubuntu | so I dunno | 13:46 |
| voicegrrrl | Can anyone direct me to instructions for uninstalling 2.6.24-20? | 13:46 |
| s33nagai2 | pulseezar: Well it won't show up on the computer screen unless it is "/" or a removable drive. | 13:47 |
| balle_ | what's the default folder for transferred files over pidgin? i have lost a couple of pictures... | 13:47 |
| slammed87d21 | caa anyone help me install a tar.gz file? | 13:47 |
| xnv | slammed87d21: tar.gz is just a compressed file like a .zip | 13:48 |
| s33nagai2 | pulseezar: If set them up both as mount, Ubuntu may have a fit! | 13:48 |
| Starnestommy | slammed87d21: extract it then read the readme and install files in it | 13:48 |
| xnv | slammed87d21: To extract, use tar -xvzf filename.tar.gz | 13:48 |

| s33nagai2 | pulseezar: If want it to be easily accessable and be storage, I would set it up as /home during Ubuntu setup. | 13:49 |
| pulseezar | just remembered one of those fundamental differences between windows and linux | 13:49 |
| remoteCTR1 | isnt the command to unzip a ta.bz2 tar xjf bla.tar.bz2? cos that returns me an error | 13:49 |

| fde | dynoll3: actually, you probably want to 'sudo aptitude install emerald-themes' | 14:09 |
| penguen | no need to sudo for that | 14:10 |
| kushalsejwal | Greetings to everybody. I have a list scanned from a book and its a .jpg image , is there any way I can convert into a .pdf file (like the way ebooks are make)??? | 14:10 |
| Aprilia | Hi | 14:10 |
| pulseezar | i didn't open it from the terminal, how do I do that? | 14:10 |
| geirha | pulseezar: save it to /tmp/something then "sudo cp /tmp/something /etc/fstab" | 14:10 |

| fde | penguen: no need to sudo for what? | 14:10 |
| Aprilia | I need help for linux ubuntu | 14:10 |
| cdj26_ | that is what this is fo aprilia | 14:10 |
| fde | !helpme | 14:10 |
| ubottu | Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience | 14:10 |
| geirha | pulseezar: "gksudo gedit /etc/fstab" is a typical way to edit it | 14:10 |
| Aprilia | I need messenger | 14:10 |
| xnv | guido: Synaptic will usually tell you what packages you have installed. If you want to look at services, you may have to install something like rcconf | 14:10 |
| maney | New Hardy install, and the keyboard setup is hosed. many punctuation keys act as accent-combining instead of typing the letter. wtf? I can´t find anything to change this... | 14:10 |
| penguen | fde, for compiz --replace | 14:11 |

| ikonia | RainyLithuanian: why ? | 14:11 |
| RainyLithuanian | I have 64th version | 14:11 |
| ikonia | RainyLithuanian: why do you need that ? | 14:11 |
| Aprilia | where i can donwload aMSN | 14:11 |
| ikonia | RainyLithuanian: so why do you want the 32bit version ? | 14:11 |
| fde | penguen: eh, he wanted emerald... its his choice... it just means he doesn't wanna use metacity decorations | 14:11 |
| citizen42alpha | sudo apt-get install amsn | 14:11 |
| RainyLithuanian | and I try to make my drivers for printer work | 14:11 |
| ikonia | RainyLithuanian: you can't do that | 14:11 |
| kushalsejwal | Guys, can anyone help me in making a pdf file from a scanned page of a book?? | 14:11 |
| RainyLithuanian | they require 32 libraries | 14:11 |
| ikonia | RainyLithuanian: you can't just drop 32bit libraries in | 14:11 |
| ikonia | RainyLithuanian: ubuntu is not multi-lib | 14:12 |
| RainyLithuanian | ikonia, I have no such file in lib32 | 14:12 |
| cdj26_ | hey, does anybody know how to make programs open in certain workspaces? | 14:12 |
| ikonia | RainyLithuanian: ubuntu is not multi-lib | 14:12 |
| fde | ikonia: actually you can... that's perfectly fine... it's just apt/dpkg won't do it for you | 14:12 |
| ikonia | RainyLithuanian: you can't use 32bit drivers, and you can't just drop 32bit libs in | 14:12 |
| Balian | guido: I need font for ubuntu 8.04 | 14:12 |
| ikonia | fde no you can't | 14:12 |

| fde | ikonia: you can't use 32bit drivers... but libs are perfectly ok... look in amd64 for 'ia32-sun-java6-bin' as an example | 14:13 |
| s33nagai2 | in 7.10? | 14:13 |
| dik | will tht sort out my xgl problems as i want to play games like quake 4 and others but it seems a little bit flickery is that why | 14:13 |
| guido | Balian you can install regular truetype fonts on ubuntu, if you want. You can easily find tons of them on the internet... | 14:13 |
| s33nagai2 | maek: in 7.10 | 14:13 |
| pulseezar | geirha: that worked fine, but should I copy everything that is now at /media/storage back to /usr/local? | 14:14 |
| fde | ikonia: that is also why 64bit has /lib and /lib64 ... and /usr/lib and /usr/lib64 | 14:14 |
| Terabyte | Hey, I want to install netgear rangemax wireless card. What should I do? | 14:14 |
| ikonia | fde: 32bit libs on the 64bit platform are in /lib32 | 14:14 |
| Terabyte | (with regard to driver install) | 14:14 |
| dynoll3 | fde... can u paste me the paste bin? | 14:14 |
| fde | ikonia: I'm pretty sure you're wrong, but I'm not at a 64bit machine, so I will digress and state that that still disagrees with your argument. | 14:15 |
| Balian | i do update 6.12 to 8.04 and can't do eny thing bisouse a don't hawe letter | 14:15 |
| maek | s33nagai2, right click the desktop then select "change desktop background" then click "Visual Effects" Then click either normal or extra | 14:15 |
| ikonia | fde: I'm on a 64bit system now - the 32bit libs are in /lib32 | 14:15 |
| fde | ikonia: you'd of course need to use ld to update things... but it's fine to do... | 14:15 |
| s33nagai2 | maek: k. | 14:15 |
| RainyLithuanian | youp | 14:15 |

| Balian | guido: i do update 6.12 to 8.04 and can't do eny thing bisouse a don't hawe letter | 14:16 |
| * fde usually sticks to lib32 and lib64 and never checked the symlink... apologizes | 14:16 | |
| ikonia | fde: thats a multi-lib system, your correct, as I said, ubuntu is not multi-lib | 14:17 |
| s33nagai2 | maek: It says; 'desktop Effects could not be enabled" | 14:17 |
| thread | who can tell me how to boot the hardy cd into single user mode? | 14:17 |
| pulseezar | geirha: that worked fine, but should I copy everything that is now at /media/storage back to /usr/local? | 14:17 |
| darwin_ | hello, would my system breake if I comment the line "exec /sbin/getty 38400 tty5" in /etc/event.d/tty3 to tty6 | 14:17 |
| ikonia | thread add the line "single" to the boot options | 14:17 |
| maek | s33nagai2, then you either have a blacklisted video card or you haven't installed your video drivers | 14:17 |
| ||arifaX | can I cleanup logs of a new system by deleting *.gz in /var/log and then doing a cat /dev/null to all open log-files before shutdown?? | 14:17 |
| guido | Balian if is not a standard font normally present, you have to get the file and install it on your system.... | 14:17 |
| thread | ikonia: word, you mean? after the -- ? | 14:18 |
| RainyLithuanian | ikonia, shall you send me the lib? I may tell I need it to totally crash my 64-bit system | 14:18 |
| fde | ikonia: dpkg and apt don't have support for it, but the support is there in the packages etc... http://wiki.debian.org/multiarch unless they removed work done towards this page? | 14:18 |
| RainyLithuanian | is it ok? | 14:18 |
| Terabyte | d | 14:18 |
| cdj26_ | s33nagai2: i believe you have to install compiz: sudo aptitude install compiz compiz-manager | 14:18 |
| mcquaid | is there a reason cat /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/THRM/temperature doesn't work? it always reports 40 regardless | 14:18 |
| ikonia | fde: try it, the applications won't work (he's using an external package) it wants the lib in /lib | 14:18 |
| guido | Balian, however if it was a very standard font present in the early version, it seems a little bit strange that is not present in the updated version... | 14:18 |
| ikonia | fde: he's not using an ubuntu package hence why it won't understand the layout | 14:18 |
| ikonia | fde: I agree with what your saying but ubuntu is not multi-lib and he's using external packages | 14:19 |
| s33nagai2 | maek: How can I find out what card I have? All I know is I have an Intel card. cdj26_:No, I am in the CompizConfig rightnow. | 14:19 |
| Balian | guido: where i find liles with normal font | 14:19 |
| cdj26_ | sorry then | 14:19 |
| cdj26_ | s33nagia2: go to system > admin > hardware drivers | 14:19 |
| fde | ikonia: it's more that the external packager is ignorant than it is debian/ubuntu's fault... it should look for /lib32 in the preinst scripts or something | 14:20 |
| ndf | hi guys. i went into system>administration>services and activated 'alsa-utils' to see what it did. since then i've had no sound. i stopped the service and still haven't got sound back. what has it done? | 14:20 |
| maek | dont have any experience with Intel cards sorry s33nagai2 | 14:20 |
| ikonia | fde: exactly | 14:20 |
| RainyLithuanian | ikonia, it understands the layout | 14:20 |
| ndf | i didn't even find out what it did in the end anyway | 14:20 |
| RainyLithuanian | it looks in 32 | 14:20 |
| ikonia | fde: but it's a generic package, not meant for ubuntu, so why should the packager follow ubuntu's rules | 14:20 |
| ikonia | fde: but I do agree | 14:20 |
| guido | Balian what's the exact name of the font ? | 14:20 |

| thread | why is it that every time i burn a hardy cd, it doesn't boot?? ... a friend was telling me he had the same experience! | 14:21 |
| cdj26_ | s33nagai2: there might be a 3rd party driver that you have to enable, i did and that is where it was | 14:21 |
| fde | RainyLithuanian: what are you trying to install? | 14:21 |
| ikonia | darwin_: why do you want to do that ? | 14:21 |
| s33nagai2 | cdj26_: not there!? is that because I'm running 7.10? I do see Admin > prefs > Hardware info. | 14:21 |
| RainyLithuanian | fde, drivers for canon ip1500 | 14:21 |
| ikonia | darwin_: that would certainly cause you problems | 14:21 |

| s33nagai2 | ikonia: Yea... sorry bout that ! | 14:32 |
| kriel | Okay. In my travels, I accidentally borked up my perl. My brilliant solution was 'apt*get remove perl && apt*get install perl' (censored for noob protection.) This in turn uninstalled about half my software. Is there anyway to tell it to reinstall the default packages, without, well. Doing a reinstall? | 14:33 |
| Balian | I need Help with font! | 14:33 |
| ndf | ... | 14:34 |
| fde | RainyLithuanian: sure... if you're compiling, you can define the /lib32 dir ... good luck tracking down everything though... just reinstall with the x86 version if I was you... this isn't the first headache you'll have. | 14:34 |
| ndf | gosh. | 14:34 |
| joe_chat | ndf: output of lspci | 14:34 |

| geirha | ryanakca: I don't understand your question | 14:34 |
| ndf | joe_chat: if you keep asking me what i've allready told you, we're just going to go round in circles. | 14:34 |

| kriel | jimcooncat: nope. It's not. | 14:35 |
| geirha | ryanakca: you want the screen to be cleared when you log out? | 14:35 |
| fde | Balian: That is a personal preference | 14:35 |
| jimcooncat | kriel: you could also try ubuntu-minimal first to see if that gets you what's missing | 14:35 |
| ikonia | will00: use one of the other scripts | 14:36 |
| Pici | !fonts > Balian | 14:36 |

| fde | ndf: What is the issue, what have you done so far... are there any errors in the steps you've attempted? | 14:37 |
| ikonia | ndf: no need for that laguage or attitude, if you do't wat to help, politly walk away | 14:37 |
| Terabyte | ndf: he said that he wasn't here when you asked the question, and that's proabbly why nobody else is able to help you. start again from the beginning and if it doesn't work, you've missed a step | 14:38 |
| KnomeDE | how do i reinstall the grub bootloader form a live cd? | 14:38 |

| JennyG | Okay, I need some help with my wifi and/or whatever is involved in that. lol | 14:38 |
| RainyLithuanian | :/ | 14:38 |
| ndf | Terabyte: he asked me the same 3 things over and over in a circle. | 14:38 |
| ikonia | !grub > KnomeDE | 14:38 |
| ubottu | KnomeDE, please see my private message | 14:38 |
| RainyLithuanian | that's why I dont want to reinstall | 14:38 |
| ndf | anyways | 14:38 |

| Balian | i hawe two cmputers. One work normal | 14:39 |
| ndf | fde: lastnight i started the service 'alsa-utils', since then i've had no sound. i've stopped the service and soud hasn't come back. what has it done? | 14:39 |
| KnomeDE | ikonia: that works | 14:39 |
| ikonia | KnomeDE: cool | 14:39 |
| kaushal | How can i install packages from CD | 14:39 |
| Balian | Pici i hawe two cmputers. One work normal | 14:39 |
| mgolisch | if its real package cd register the cd as a repository | 14:39 |
| kaushal | I have it in /mnt/cdrom/pool/main | 14:39 |
| DJones | !aptoncd | kaushal | 14:39 |
| ubottu | kaushal: APTonCD is a tool with a graphical interface which allows you to create one or more CDs or DVDs with all of the packages you've downloaded via apt-get or aptitude, creating a removable repository that you can use on other computers | 14:39 |
| mgolisch | if not install the packages manualy using dpkg | 14:40 |
| fde | ndf: what have _you_ done... have you looked in System > Preferences > Sounds ... can you get sound out of anything there? Tell me if you can | 14:40 |
| Pici | Balian: Did you make any changes that would haev caused this? | 14:40 |
| kaushal | DJones,i have server edition and dont have gui | 14:40 |
| ndf | no that's what i'm saying, i have no sound | 14:40 |
| fde | kaushal: aptitude install <adesktop> ? | 14:40 |
| ndf | =/ | 14:40 |
| ryanakca | geirha: ok,thanks anyways | 14:40 |
| alraune | ndf: result from : modprobe snd- ? | 14:41 |
| ryanakca | When I log out of my VTs, the screen gets cleared, but I don't get a login screen. How do I fix this? | 14:41 |
| kaushal | fde, give me an example please | 14:41 |
| ndf | $ modprobe snd- | 14:41 |
| ndf | FATAL: Module snd_ not found. | 14:41 |
| kaushal | I have all the packages in /mnt/cdrom/pool/main | 14:41 |
| fde | kaushal: probably something like fluxbox so there is minimal overhead on the server | 14:41 |
| kriel | jimcooncat: i think i got it. ubuntu-minimal and ubuntu-standard are both okay, and nothing has broken dependencies, so it looks like it's more-or-less back to normal. | 14:41 |
| kriel | jimcooncat: thank you. | 14:41 |
| fde | kaushal: of the boxes... openbox is all the rage these days actually. | 14:42 |
| jimcooncat | kriel: yw have a good one | 14:42 |

| alraune | ndf : modprobe snd | 14:42 |
| geirha | ryanakca: it should be controlled by /etc/event.d/tty*, or /etc/inittab if you have one. Have you edited any of those? | 14:42 |
| ndf | alraune: that didn't return anything this time | 14:42 |
| ryanakca | geirha: nope | 14:43 |
| fde | alraune: you seriously want him to modprobe every snd- module? | 14:43 |
| fde | Actually, it wouldn't work, cuz there is no * ... nm | 14:43 |
| alraune | fed: no, but make shure its loaded | 14:43 |
| geirha | ryanakca: pastebin the output of: cat /etc/inittab /etc/event.d/tty1 | 14:43 |
| histo | Why the hell would linux-ubuntu-modules-whatver not be required by linux-kernel-whatever ? | 14:43 |

| Evilbelgian | hi there, how big is the ubuntu ISO | 14:43 |

| p4_xxx | hi, i have a ubuntu server at home for file shares, im folowing a guide to set some rules with iptables, but im reading some setting for Network Manager in the same guide, can someone explain this because i dont understand this: this is what im reading: Configuration on startup | 14:45 |
| p4_xxx | WARNING: Iptables and NetworkManager seem to have a conflict. However NetworkManager is still in Beta. If you are concerned enough about security to isntall a firewall you might not want to trust NetworkManager to manage it yet. Also note NetworkManager and iptables have opposite aims.

| histo | fde: no I mean linux-ubuntu-moduels-2.6.24-19-generic arent dependent on them. | 14:45 |
| Balian | Pici: I work all day but I don't konow wath i must do | 14:45 |
| will00 | ikonia, ok, i wrote the script, do i have to do anything else to get it to work | 14:45 |
| histo | ndf: did what I tell you replay with anything. | 14:45 |
| ndf | histo: what!? | 14:46 |
| histo | ndf: You are having problems with sound right? | 14:46 |
| ndf | omg yes | 14:46 |
| kaushal | I am not getting help here | 14:46 |
| fde | histo: linux-ubuntu-modules does depend linux-image ... linux-image doesn't depend on linux-ubuntu-modules because it doesn't require a bunch of random modules to build | 14:46 |
| histo | ndf: try this in a terminal find /lib/modules/`uname -r` | grep snd | 14:46 |
| Pici | Balian: Do you see normal fonts if you do: ctrl-alt-f1 ? | 14:47 |
| Balian | No | 14:47 |
| ndf | histo: huge list, what are you looking for in there? | 14:47 |
| fde | s/build/run/ | 14:47 |
| histo | fde: not the linux-image but it the -generic kernel that everyone has installed with ubuntu-desktop | 14:47 |

| histo | ndf: okay what about lsmod | grep snd | 14:47 |
| ndf | histo: you asked me that 2 mins ago, same reply | 14:47 |
| RainyLithuanian | can someone get me libtiff.so.3 for 32-bits? | 14:47 |
| ndf | huge list, what are you looking for? | 14:47 |
| Balian | sorry Pici I see normal font | 14:48 |
| histo | ndf: It shouldn't be a huge list from lsmod that should show you what modules are loaded. | 14:48 |
| JennyG | I need help getting wifi to work. I have no idea what to do, lol. | 14:48 |
| histo | ndf: try speakertest in a terminal and hit Ctrl + C to stop it. | 14:48 |
| fde | histo: linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-16-generic depends linux-image-2.6.24-16-generic ... why would the opposite be true? | 14:48 |
| ndf | well it is | 14:48 |
| rwycuff | JennyG,what wifi card | 14:48 |
| histo | fde: omg fde I give up your are right | 14:48 |
| histo | fde: don't be an ass | 14:49 |
| ndf | speakertest: command not found | 14:49 |
| histo | ndf: alsamixer and make sure your stuff isn't muted. | 14:49 |
| JennyG | rwycuff: Umm, Broadcom, bcm4318. That right? | 14:49 |
| Balian | do you hawe eny idea? | 14:49 |
| Balian | Pici | 14:49 |
| fde | histo: I'm not being an ass, it was just a strange statement... so I wished to explain it to you. | 14:49 |
| ndf | OMG that's the third time i've been asked that | 14:49 |
| ndf | i'm not stupid | 14:49 |
| ndf | like i said, it's a problem with alsa-utils service that i started | 14:50 |
| histo | fde: Its not that package I mentioned is not dependent on anything else I think thats jacked up. You can then really bork your sound up by that package not being present. | 14:50 |
| Lunenfeld | hello, how can i start the speaker-applet in openbox which is started in the systray of gnome automatically? | 14:50 |
| Pici | Balian: Try doing: sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales | 14:50 |
| rwycuff | JennyG,broadcom chips are not supported much in linux ... so you may have to get the inf file from windows driver and then run it through ndiswrapper | 14:50 |
| histo | ndf: okay well I didn't know that its a problem with alsa-utils | 14:50 |
| ndf | i told you that to start off with | 14:51 |
| fde | histo: You're really bad at explaining yourself ;) ALSA is built into the kernel... linux-sound-base is depended by ubuntu-standard I think | 14:51 |
| JennyG | rwycuff, so I've heard about broadcom :( | 14:51 |
| histo | fde: no maybe on linux-generic but not anythign else | 14:51 |
| ndf | screw this, nobody's understanding me anyway. i'm going. | 14:52 |
| kaushal | hi | 14:52 |
| haelen | Hi. I've just run alsamixer and discovered that, for some reason pulseaudio is now assigned as both card and chip. | 14:52 |
| haelen | I'm not sure how this happened. Can I change it? | 14:52 |
| rwycuff | JennyG,can you get the inf file from the windows driver | 14:52 |
| histo | fde: and i'm not talking about linux-sound-base | 14:52 |
| fde | histo: what are you talking about then? | 14:53 |
| JennyG | rwycuff, I shall try | 14:53 |
| === [ID]-855 is now known as GeorgeZL | ||
| JennyG | lol | 14:53 |
| rwycuff | JennyG,is windows still installed on this pc | 14:53 |
| histo | fde: linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-19-generic | 14:53 |
| fde | histo: ok... it depends the kernel the modules are built against? | 14:54 |
| pulseezar | if I share a folder over a netwrok from my vista desktop machine | 14:54 |
| pulseezar | oops | 14:54 |
| JennyG | rwycuff, well, let's see | 14:54 |
| fde | histo: Why would the actual kernel depend on a bunch of drivers that aren't part of it? | 14:54 |
| JennyG | rwycuff, I don't think so anymore, lmao | 14:54 |
| fde | histo: that's like gnome-desktop being dependent on a bunch of backgrounds... | 14:54 |
| pulseezar | if I share a folder over a network from my vista desktop should my ubuntu machine be able to access it? | 14:54 |
| rwycuff | JennyG,did not know if you was duel booting or what | 14:54 |
| histo | fde: I SAID SOMETHING SHOULD REQUIRE THAT PACKAGE TOOL | 14:54 |
| fde | histo: why? | 14:54 |
| histo | fde: SO THAT PEOPLES SOUND WORKS | 14:55 |
| JennyG | rwycuff, hmm | 14:55 |
| histo | without it you have no fn drivers | 14:55 |
| fde | histo: If I don't need anything in there... why should I be forced to keep it? | 14:55 |

| histo | fde: I'm done talking about it. You don't understand what i'm saying and I don't have the patience to explain. | 15:00 |
| fde | kaushal: sudo aptitude install <whatever> ... the CD should be added already. | 15:00 |
| kaushal | I have all the packages under /mnt/cdrom/pool/main/ | 15:00 |
| xnv | ATA_Dark_Shadow: You can mount /dev? | 15:00 |
| geirha | ryanakca: maybe have a look at /var/log/syslog, and see if there are any related error messages | 15:00 |
| fde | histo: I understand fully. I will agree to drop it though, sorry you got so worked up :/ | 15:00 |
| dynoll3 | hey someone know where i can set the screensavers in compizfusion? | 15:00 |

| geirha | pulseezar: in my limited experience with samba, it works better to mount the share instead of using nautilus to browse it. Try something like this: "sudo mount -tcifs -ousername=$USER,workgroup=MS-HOME //windows-box/sharename /mnt" | 15:03 |
| ATA_Dark_Shadow | xnv what i need : the "usual" line udev on /dev type tmpfs (rw,mode=0755) when i enter #mount, however it seems that it is not mounted because | 15:03 |

| jamestweet | unop, Is there some sort of setting in Gnome? | 15:42 |
| unop | Neku, run this command, a URL will be generated at the end that you can give us. which pastebinit || sudo aptitude install pastebinit; pastebinit < /etc/apt/sources.list | 15:43 |

| ghoulsblade | hi, i installed xp after kubuntu, now the bootloader(grub) is gone, how can i reinstall it ? (i'm under kubuntu live cd atm) | 15:43 |
| Starnestommy | srv2008: maybe ##networking | 15:43 |
| Pici | !fixgrub > ghoulsblade | 15:43 |
| ubottu | ghoulsblade, please see my private message | 15:43 |
| srv2008 | Starnetstommy: :) thx | 15:43 |
| ghoulsblade | thanks =) | 15:43 |
| Neku | unop i cant install it every time i use terminal tht annoyin message shows up | 15:44 |
| unop | jamestweet, even on windows - directories are not always changed, it's upto the program to change directories (while most do, some don't) - I am not aware of any setting in gnome to change directories first - which is why i suggested the wrapper script | 15:44 |
| unop | Neku, paste the whole file's contents then | 15:44 |

| pulseeza1 | so i just changed my wireless settings to use a static IP address and there have been two side effects. I no longer get the signal strength icon at the top right only a pic of two monitors, and on the attached devices page of the router manager this computer no longer seems to have a name. Any ideas? | 15:45 |
| Neku | 1 sec ill restart | 15:45 |
| kristjan_eerik | pulseeza1, the first is because you have manually changed the configuration | 15:46 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | oh no my tommy-notes are gone | 15:46 |
| pulseeza1 | kristjan_eerik: is there a way to use manual configuration and still get the signal strength icon? | 15:46 |
| MoTec | pulseeza1: consider having your router give out a specific IP to that mac address instead of specifing the IP on the client side. | 15:46 |

| ManualOverDozer8 | pulseeza1 yes you can set the settings back | 15:47 |

| edju | This Pavillion notebook will not sleep - I get a screen of garbage and must alt-ctl-del out. I've tried googling but have come up blank. 2.6.24-19-generic kernel. Any pointers greatly appreciated. | 15:49 |
| unop | Otacon22, ideally, the source package that contains the driver and firmware should have a installer script that places everything in the right locations | 15:49 |
| Trumbun | hi., I ahve an nvidia graphic card with the nvidia setings manger installed, how to configure dual screen cloned | 15:49 |
| Otacon22 | unop, this don't have anything, is a .bin file inside the windows driver disk | 15:49 |
| Otacon22 | that can be used also su linux | 15:50 |
| unop | Uranellus, did you try this first. sudo aptitude update; sudo do-release-upgrade? | 15:50 |
| JennyG | Man, I still have no idea wtf I am doing | 15:50 |
| Uranellus | unop: yes .. but the edgy repos on the ubuntu servers are no longer there (404 errors) | 15:50 |
| td123 | !dual | Trumbun | 15:50 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about dual | 15:50 |
| unop | Otacon22, not really sure then .. create that directory and place your firmware in it | 15:50 |

| ManualOverDozer8 | 3 lines | 15:51 |
| unop | Uranellus, well if you are upgrading, you don't really have a need for the edgy servers anymore, you can comment the edgy repos out in /etc/apt/source.list | 15:51 |
| Trumbun | ok i am seeing it out | 15:52 |
| eshat | Is there a way to lock a file for other users, while I am editing it with emacs,vi,nano or whatever ? | 15:52 |
| Uranellus | unop: ok, I'll try that (now there are no sources at all ..) but let's see what do-release-upgrade does :) | 15:52 |
| jamestweet | unop, You are the man. It works great. | 15:53 |

| blow_me_away | can I use a linux bootloader on a macbook, and will osx still be able to boot? (installed ubuntu but it doesnt show in the startup-screen) | 15:54 |
| Uranellus | unop: there are a few warnings, and it tries to upgrade to feisty .. | 15:54 |
| RainyLithuanian | might I ask how to mount ntfs partition with ubuntu 8.041 safe mode ? | 15:54 |
| jamestweet | unop, Is there a way to have the trash can shred files that get deleted? | 15:55 |
| unop | Uranellus, what might be safer actually is to replace edgy with feisty in sources.list then | 15:55 |
| willluongo | RainyLithuanian: It should tell you when you try to mount it the normal way | 15:55 |
| willluongo | RainyLithuanian: and ask you to force | 15:55 |
| unop | jamestweet, errm, perhaps - though i don't use gnome or kde, so i can't say | 15:55 |
| Uranellus | unop: what if I put hardy in there directly? | 15:55 |
| jamestweet | unop, Ok thanks for your help. | 15:56 |
| RainyLithuanian | willluongo, I am newb, how can you check how are your partitions named? | 15:56 |
| RainyLithuanian | I might guess that it's sd2 or smth, but I am not sure:) | 15:56 |
| unop | Uranellus, errm, upgrading directly to hardy is probably not officially supported by ubuntu. | 15:56 |
| willluongo | RainyLithuanian: df -h will show you all of the partitions you are using (and their disk space) | 15:57 |
| andrew___ | RainyLithuanian: fdisk -l | 15:57 |
| RainyLithuanian | thanks | 15:57 |
| Uranellus | unop: ok, thanks | 15:57 |
| vega-- | hmm, plugged in usb devices (ipod, usb stick, camera) still open software for all users logged in on hardy, not just the one currently active, which of course results in silly errors to the user not able to claim the device | 15:57 |
| andrew___ | RainyLithuanian: I meant sudo fdisk -l | 15:57 |

| raqamy | hi, how to convert swf format to avi or mpeg? | 15:59 |
| willluongo | !away | 15:59 |
| ubottu | You should avoid noisy away messages in a busy channel like #ubuntu, or other Ubuntu channels; it causes excessive scrolling which is unfair to new users. Use the command "/away <reason>" to set your client away silently. See also «/msg ubottu Guidelines» | 16:00 |
| SNuxoll | cdj26: delete the folder, than run ln -s Documents /path/to/target in a terminal | 16:00 |
| unop | Uranellus, well, that probably won't be good enough. you might find yourself in a different soup doing that with the servers (as they might have different packages installed, different configurations, etc) | 16:00 |
| cdj26 | thanks | 16:00 |

| ManualOverDozer8 | JennyG have you tried Network Manager ? | 16:02 |
| cdj26 | thanks both of you | 16:02 |

| RainyLithuanian | so what do I do if I want to mount sda2 to /media/disk2/ | 16:02 |

| RainyLithuanian | manually | 16:03 |

| ManualOverDozer8 | jennyG just a min please | 16:26 |
| geirha | Johnny: why not download some source, and have the script recompile it over and over again instead? then you're actually compiling something too | 16:26 |
| JennyG | ManualOverDozer8, k | 16:26 |
| Johnny | like what geirha ? | 16:26 |
| Johnny | any ideas what would be good? | 16:26 |
| Johnny | and wont that take up more memory than just a script to echo a file over and over | 16:27 |
| geirha | Johnny: apt-get source packagename will download the source of a give package to the directory you are in. Pick a package at random. | 16:27 |

| mbiker | newb question... is there an easy way to upgrade Hardy release to have Apache 2.2.9 versus 2.2.8? | 17:04 |
| pos69sum | i'm having trouble setting up a new ubuntu box behind a wireless router so that it is available publicly with a static ip and hostname | 17:05 |
| td123 | mbiker: compile your own if you really need 2.2.9 | 17:05 |
| Dominik | hey I have a problem getting Gothic 1 to run with wine, I followed the descritopn given in the AppDB on the wine webpage, but when I start the game the screen just turns white and I have to terminate the game :-/ And I don't get an answer at the winehq channel, can someone help me here? | 17:05 |
| pos69sum | does anyone know iof any good tutorials for this? | 17:05 |
| unop | mbiker, you'll need to backport 2.2.9 from intrepid | 17:05 |
| Gnea | !info apache2 | 17:06 |
| ubottu | apache2 (source: apache2): Next generation, scalable, extendable web server. In component main, is optional. Version 2.2.8-1ubuntu0.3 (hardy), package size 43 kB, installed size 100 kB | 17:06 |
| dan | WUT WUT | 17:06 |
| Dominik | I get 1 error und a bunch of "fixme" the error says: "dmloader: IDirectMusicloaderImpl_IDirectMusicloader_SetObject: could not attach stream to file" that is what the console output is | 17:06 |
| Th3_KID | thats cool | 17:06 |
| anthony | pos69sum: Well, the first question is whether your ISP actually gives you a static IP, or if you need dynamic DNS. | 17:06 |
| Gnea | !ask | dan | 17:06 |
| ubottu | dan: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 17:06 |

| === Swish[\] is now known as Swish | ||
| anthony | pos69sum: Then the only thing left really is to set up the port forward for 80 (or other relevant ones) in your router - portforward.com | 17:07 |
| unop | mbiker, as i said. backport | 17:07 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | jennyG did you say you had an eth0 when you did > iwconfig ? | 17:07 |

| Windsurfer619 | (Q) I've installed phpmyadmin as detailed on help.ubuntu, but I'm not able to access it by going to localhost/phpymyadmin. are there any other steps I should be taking? | 17:07 |
| unop | mbiker, do you know how to add repositories? | 17:08 |
| td123 | mbiker: try unop's idea, otherwise I think you have to compile it. why do you need 2.2.9? anyways | 17:08 |
| JennyG | ManualOverDozer8 on iwconfig, I get lo, eth0, wmaster0, and wlan0 | 17:08 |
| anthony | pos69sum: well, and making sure your router's DHCP server is giving it a static internal IP, and setting the domain name to point to the right place, but those are easy | 17:08 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | ok | 17:08 |

| Abe1 | td123 as root? | 17:29 |
| unop | mbiker, it's not advisable adding the intrepid binary repos to a hardy install - a mixed system like this could severly break things and you might not have ABI on hardy with a package built for intrepid | 17:29 |
| mneptok | bassinboywk: sudo killall NetworkManager && sudo NetworkManager & | 17:29 |
| Abe1 | td123 how to mount as root? | 17:29 |

| Johnny | what do i need? | 17:32 |

| unop | mbiker, hmm, i'm not sure - i would say no to this if this is the only package from intrepid that needs backporting | 17:33 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | jennyG by the way what distro of linux ? hardy ? | 17:33 |
| mehul_yadav | The enable write support for internal device is grayed out in NTFS config. How do I enable it? | 17:33 |
| JennyG | ManualOverDozer8: Yeah | 17:33 |
| td123 | Abe1: mount /dev/sd(some letter and number, typically b1) (folder location) | 17:33 |
| remoteCTR1 | i'd like to accomplish that a link that looks like http://somedomain:8080/dk looks like http://somedomain, so i implemeted modules mod_proxy_http and mod_proxy_html. the reverse proxy works just fine but whenever i click a link the :8080/dk is back | 17:33 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | anyone know if feisty wifi drivers will work in hardy ? | 17:34 |
| remoteCTR1 | anthony: that is because my pc at home is online too, i am aware of that, thanks | 17:34 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | BCM4318 | 17:34 |
| unop | remoteCTR1, you probably need mod_rewrite there | 17:34 |
| mbiker | unop: if I understand the question... it is allowing apt to use a local repo versus a remote | 17:34 |
| unop | mbiker, i'd say it was local though i can't say for sure just from that one line. | 17:35 |
| remoteCTR1 | unop: i had a view on that one but that does something different wich wont fit my purposes.. | 17:35 |
| mbiker | unop: deb file:/var/cache/prevu/hardy-debs ./ is the one below it | 17:35 |
| unop | mbiker, yea, it's a local repo then | 17:35 |
| unop | remoteCTR1, well, from what you are describing mod_rewrite seems to fit the job | 17:36 |
| mbiker | unop: so a Y would be ok then... going for it :) | 17:36 |
| unop | mbiker, ok :) | 17:36 |
| remoteCTR1 | unop: there was a reason why it wouldnt work with that one, if i only could recall it:D gimme a sec | 17:36 |

| ks3 | Abed, So it's mounted read-write... what error were you getting when you tried to delete files? | 17:44 |
| Abed | i dunno it tells read only system | 17:45 |
| abbe1 | I have sound in movie player and real player, however, when i go to youtube there is no sound, | 17:45 |
| Abed | ks3 it tells me read only system | 17:45 |
| JulioNeto | abbe1, it is a alsa problem or a flash plugin problem | 17:45 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | jennyG got it | 17:45 |
| JennyG | ManualOverDozer8, Okay? | 17:45 |
| JulioNeto | probably a Alsa problem | 17:46 |
| abbe1 | julioNeto, I believe it is a flash plugin problem | 17:46 |

| abbe1 | it does not have sound | 17:47 |
| JulioNeto | abbe1, hunmmm | 17:47 |

| Xorlev | Is there an easy way to install Ubuntu on a pre-existing software RAID? With Gentoo it was just a matter of loading up a livecd, mounting the software RAIDs, and extracting the stage3 into the root partition. | 17:49 |

| remoteCTR1 | !language | robf | 17:56 |
| unop | remoteCTR1, so you've got a URL say http://example.com/foo that's actually masquerading as http://example.com:8000/foo ? but when you click on a link on the page, you are returned to something like http://example.com:8000/bar ? | 17:56 |

| jpds | robf: I've done that. | 17:57 |
| SNuxoll | jovo: huh? | 17:58 |
| jovo | i tried using the synaptics package manager, i installed the java package there, and it didn't work | 17:58 |
| XStylus | Got a question... | 17:58 |
| jovo | so i tried using sudo, and following java's instructions | 17:58 |
| XStylus | How do I edit PATH manually? | 17:58 |
| jovo | didn't work | 17:58 |
| SNuxoll | jovo: let's try installing it from the command line | 17:58 |
| unop | remoteCTR1, use your favourite search engine to see how the mediawiki folks have gone around the problem. they use http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Url to actually pull the page of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/index.php?Url | 17:58 |
| robf | jpds: I don't consider what I said "bad" hard to tell, I mean I simply assume the rules apply as "if you can't say it on tv, don't say it here" | 17:58 |
| SNuxoll | jovo: using apt | 17:58 |
| jovo | apt? | 17:58 |
| robf | but ya get the language zealots who get croaked over calling someone a teacake omg, offense!... whatever | 17:58 |
| SNuxoll | jovo: advanced packaging tool | 17:58 |
| robf | anyhow | 17:58 |
| remoteCTR1 | unop: i just tryed it with RewriteEngine on and RewriteRule http://domain:8080/dk/overview/ http://domain/overview/ b ut that does just nothing | 17:58 |
| unop | remoteCTR1, and they use mod_rewrite quite cleverly | 17:58 |
| robf | is X modules kbd/mouse part of some package? | 17:59 |
| SNuxoll | jovo: it's what synaptic uses in the background | 17:59 |
| khoda | Anyone using gedit with LaTeX plugin? I'm having trouble with the inverse DVI search (i.e. it doesn't work) | 17:59 |
| unop | remoteCTR1, you probably haven't got the rules doing exactly what you want. | 17:59 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | SunJava6 > http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/non-free/s/sun-java6/ | 17:59 |
| SNuxoll | jovo: so, open up a terminal | 17:59 |
| jovo | ok | 17:59 |
| JennyG | ManualOverDozer8: Good news. Something worked for once. It installed | 18:00 |
| SNuxoll | jovo: then type in sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jre | 18:00 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | jennyG lol | 18:00 |
| remoteCTR1 | unop: either i am blind or that doesnt work for some other reason i just dont get it, and either way, withthe proxy and rewrite rule-.- | 18:00 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | jennyG you did good | 18:00 |
| remoteCTR1 | unop: but i will google for what you said, thanks for the hint | 18:00 |
| jovo | hm..something's working | 18:00 |
| JennyG | ManualOverDozer8, I did? lol | 18:00 |
| jovo | but how would i know that if i never used this forum and asked people lol | 18:00 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | jennyG yes you did | 18:00 |
| jovo | what if i tried to follow java's instructions? | 18:00 |
| shane_ | anyone know of a way to restrict a certain user to login between specific hours or deny access to a program between those hours? | 18:00 |
| pos69sum | i have opened up port 22 using firewstarter and i tried to ssh to my ip but i get connection refused - any ideas? | 18:01 |
| SNuxoll | jovo: beats me :P | 18:01 |
| jovo | they told me to use su, and i actually tried it, but still didn't work =T | 18:01 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | jennyG the firware may be able to be downloaded in Synaptic Package Manager , i am not sure | 18:01 |
| ikonia | shane_: that is possible but a massive effort | 18:01 |
| Xorlev | pos69sum: Is sshd running? | 18:01 |
| SNuxoll | jovo: I personally thing we baby users too much with synaptic | 18:01 |
| pos69sum | i set 'allow for everyone' | 18:01 |
| pos69sum | Xorlev - no do i have to install ssh? | 18:01 |
| score | is there a good document on ubuntu's release policy? how is it different from debian's? | 18:01 |
| Xorlev | ..... | 18:01 |
| SNuxoll | jovo: apt is a very powerful tool and users should get to know it, especially if X breaks | 18:01 |
| Xorlev | You have to install sshd. | 18:01 |
| pos69sum | ah ok | 18:01 |
| JennyG | ManualOverDozer8: ? | 18:01 |
| pos69sum | thanks Xorlev | 18:01 |
| ikonia | score: release every 6 months is the bototm line | 18:02 |

| ManualOverDozer8 | double click the DEB file and open with gDebi | 18:02 |

| ManualOverDozer8 | jennyG it doesnt show any depends that you already should have | 18:03 |
| JennyG | ManualOverDozer8: Which deb? The one we were just playing with? | 18:03 |
| score | ikonia: security updates or major fixes only? | 18:03 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | jennyG yes the BCMxx Cutter | 18:03 |

| ikonia | score: security,minor,major,version updates | 18:03 |
| ikonia | yao_ziyuan: why does china matter in terms of keys ? | 18:04 |
| SNuxoll | yao_ziyuan: launchpad PPA's don't support proper signing, so even if you had the key it still wouldn't be able to verify it | 18:04 |
| ikonia | yao_ziyuan: its the same for any country | 18:04 |
| JennyG | ManualOverDozer8: Okay, it's open | 18:04 |
| khoda | anyone use gedit and LaTeX plugin? | 18:04 |
| ManualOverDozer8 | jennyG running ? | 18:04 |
| jovo | SNuxoll, how do i press ok in the configuring sun-java6-bin screen xD...i tried enter, i tried space, esc, f1, mouse click...nothing? | 18:04 |
| yao_ziyuan | ikonia: for example, all known software in china have government backdoors | 18:04 |
| SNuxoll | jovo: you have to press tab to select the OK button | 18:04 |
| JennyG | ManualOverDozer8, Um, the creen for where you click install is up | 18:04 |

| mzuverink | where does xorg place the resolution ranges for displays? I thought it use to be in the xorg.conf file, and that by running "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" you could set the upper and lower values for display, now in hardy it does not do that, the dpkg-reconfigure dialogue ends well before those options are offered, where are those options now offered? | 18:09 |
| ikonia | mzuverink: it's dynamic now, so it's stored in memory | 18:09 |
| ikonia | mzuverink: you can hardcode it into your xorg.conf | 18:09 |
| newair | thor, thank you | 18:09 |

| kuja_ | Okay | 18:33 |
| shadowimmage | simard: yeah, um, some real help please? | 18:33 |

| simard | kuja_, this shouldnt be too hard to do, you just have to mount the partition from the livecd | 18:33 |
| kuja_ | We don't have a LiveCD at the moment. | 18:33 |
| Jeruvy | sorry for the dumb question, but does anyone know what windows clients could connect to a hylafax server? | 18:34 |

| nixnoob | phaverkamp: i wouldn't know, I prefer gnome and I haven't even seen kde4 in action but I've heard mixed opinions and the devs admit that it lacks features from kde3 and is still "in development" for th emost part. | 18:50 |
| ice109 | can someone help? | 18:50 |
| cyphase | gyroscope: not by default | 18:50 |
| ice109 | one of my browsers says "error reading from socket" | 18:51 |
| th0r | cyphase, because then someone would be asking why doesn't it default to readable by all | 18:51 |
| anthony | cyphase: (I checked with the developers on this subject already, btw.) | 18:51 |
| gyroscope | cyphase, which distro? | 18:51 |
| cyphase | gyroscope: the one that's the irc channel is named after ;) | 18:51 |
| trigpin | ice109, have you tried opera , firefox ? | 18:51 |
| blue__ | ice109: sounds like a dns problem to me | 18:51 |
| arthur | kde4 is ok but gnome is better in my opinion | 18:52 |
| ice109 | i've tried firefox and links2 | 18:52 |
| cyphase | th0r: well, someone could ask why people need passwords by default too :) | 18:52 |
| Seiko | Volume Applet 2.22.2 can not control volume at all. hic hic | 18:52 |
| Seiko | Any help | 18:52 |
| ice109 | blue__: how do i fix it? | 18:52 |
| alraune | bonez44: paste your /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 18:52 |
| gnumm | i use kde3, but i like kde4 much more then gnome... | 18:52 |
| pasteeater | libx264 in the repo is 7 months old. Is it just following Debian's release schedule? | 18:52 |
| _gridcomputing_ | I could choose country or region: Germany, but in Add language there is only English | 18:52 |
| nixnoob | gnumm: its all a matter of opinion, but the fact that kde4 is missing some important stuff that kde3 has is a fact. | 18:53 |
| pasteeater | or debian's update schedule that is | 18:53 |
| arthur | kde4 looks cooler! | 18:53 |
| gnumm | nixnoob: right, i just answered another opinion ;) | 18:53 |
| gyroscope | gnumm, kde4.1 looks like great than gnome, you must try that :) | 18:53 |
| blue__ | ice109: system->admin->network->dnd(tab)->unlock(button), then add the IP of your router | 18:53 |
| bonez44 | alraune: http://pastebin.ca/1088665 | 18:53 |
| gnumm | gyroscope: gnome is cool when you need a vintage style desktop...:P | 18:54 |

| arthur | i use all 3 xfce,kde4 and gnome.... | 18:54 |
| Pici | pasteeater: Ubuntu is not a rolling release like Debian is. For the most part, package versions remain the same during the entire release (feisty,hardy,etc) | 18:54 |
| blue__ | ice109: i have no idea man, if i was you id take a look through the menu's an see if u can find somethign similar | 18:54 |
| ice109 | well actually i did | 18:54 |
| ice109 | and i did it | 18:54 |
| gyroscope | kde4.1 is most cool when you need customization give you powerfull choices | 18:55 |
| pasteeater | Pici: so libx264 is only usually updated once per Ubuntu release? | 18:55 |
| blue__ | ice109: any luck? | 18:55 |
| ice109 | nope | 18:55 |
| ice109 | still get the same error | 18:55 |
| nixnoob | pasteeater: unless they find a showstopper bug yea | 18:55 |
| frank95com | hi | 18:55 |
| blue__ | ice109: was your routers IP address alredy there? or did you not find the option? | 18:55 |
| phaverkamp | gyroscope: How is 4.1? I found 4.0 to be lacking polish | 18:55 |
| alraune | bonez44: what a kind of monitor do u use ? | 18:55 |
| Pici | pasteeater: Unless theres a security bug or someone files a backport. | 18:55 |
| ice109 | no i put the routers ip in there | 18:55 |
| pasteeater | nixnoob, Pici: I see. thanks. | 18:56 |
| blue__ | ice109: maybe try a restart then? | 18:56 |
| ice109 | nah that never does anything | 18:56 |
| gyroscope | phaverkamp, don't look back :D | 18:56 |
| gnumm | kde 4.1 is much better then kde 4.0 | 18:56 |

| NisseHult | For the last 6 hours I've been trying to install Ubuntu and finally I've gotten it to start but of course I have problems, so far I've only discoverd two. First one is that it seems like the package manager won't update, it lists only 1132 packages and 1100 is installed, the second is that I cant install the nvidia drivers, it sais when I try to enable the device that nvidia-glx is not enabled | 19:04 |
| nezza-_- | gnumm: i bootet from cd without network connection. | 19:04 |

| NisseHult | Yes | 19:04 |
| nezza-_- | gnumm: okay.. but the live cd is running 2.6.24-19? | 19:04 |
| gnumm | nezza-_-: ah, i guess you downloaded 8.04.1? | 19:04 |
| histo | NisseHult: then open a terminal and sudo aptitude update | 19:04 |
| NisseHult | Wireless and working | 19:05 |
| Shishire | gyroscope: yes, but is there any sort of GUI? | 19:05 |
| histo | nezza-_-: yeahthats an update | 19:05 |
| nezza-_- | gnumm: ah okay,, this could be. i just downloaded the latest image from ubuntu.,com | 19:05 |
| gyroscope | Shishire, hmm i don't know that, but perl is fair enough for regex | 19:05 |
| histo | NisseHult: once that is done downloading lists of packages that have changed. sudo aptitude safe-upgrade | 19:05 |
| nezza-_- | gnumm: will try 8.04 thank you!~ | 19:05 |

| unop | pulseezar, something like this. //server/share /home/user/Desktop cifs username=user,password=password 0 0 | 19:17 |
| pulseezar | ok i'll give that a try unop, thanks | 19:18 |
| alraune | bonez44: there ? | 19:20 |
| unop | pulseezar, though, you might not want to have the username and password in there as everyone can read /etc/fstab .. you can use a credentials file that is only readable by root. see the smbmount/mount.cifs manpage | 19:20 |
| NisseHult | blue___ restricted repositories is enabled | 19:20 |
| unop | pulseezar, and make the second param. /home/user/Desktop/sharename instead | 19:21 |

I have found a few forum posts the people with the same problems but none of the solutions worked. Im not using Compiz. The only thing that works is setting "Option"TexturedVideo" "off"" in xorg.conf but then the movie get pixely instead. Does anyone know what might fix this ? | 19:28 |
| ikonia | wok: don't lie - it wasn't a mistake, you just wanted flash 10 and thought it would work | 19:28 |
| ubotu | Johnny: set the DISPLAY variable in the crontab and make an appropriate entry | 19:28 |
| alraune | olie: what hardware ? | 19:28 |
| Johnny | not in gnome | 19:29 |
| Johnny | im in awesome | 19:29 |
| wok | ikonia, yes i do need flash 10, but didnt realise the intrepid until after id installed it without checking :/ | 19:29 |
| ubotu | something like this: 00 11 * * 3 zenity | 19:29 |
| ikonia | wok: so you need to do a dpkg -l | grep flash to get the package name, then a dpkg -r $package name to remove it | 19:29 |
| ikonia | wok: you didn't realise it was intrepid, even though it says it clearly in the url you got it from | 19:29 |
| Johnny | how do i do that from the cli ubotu | 19:29 |

| fistandandelus | that was actually very helpful thanks, now i have another problem though | 19:46 |
| th0r | w8tah, well, from the looks of it you need to upgrade the lib and then install the dev | 19:47 |

| th0r | w8tah, is 1.0.16 the latest version of the lib also...or just the installed version | 19:56 |
| duiu | Ice_Wewe: Add this line in resolvconf: nameserver "192.168.0.1" where 192.168.0.1 is your nameserver | 19:56 |

| Ice_Wewe | duiu, I'm looking for a more permanent fix than adding lines to /etc/resolv.conf | 19:56 |

| w8tah | soundray: changing mirrors didnt help | 19:57 |
| th0r | w8tah, but you might have to flush the cache first...dpkg can get funny like that I think | 19:57 |
| Ice_Wewe | duiu, I know how to add lines to resolv.conf, however it comes with a warning that you should not edit the file directly as changes will be overwritten, I'm trying to edit using the resolvconf command so that when it does overwrite /etc/resolv.conf I get the *right* nameserver | 19:57 |
| w8tah | th0r: that will then break whatever package i installed | 19:57 |
| Jockeo | Note however that it does switch between different speeds, so some kind of governing is working. | 19:58 |
| th0r | w8tah, might...but I found that risk overrated in my experience | 19:58 |
| === rambo3 is now known as joomla_user | ||
| w8tah | th0r: how do i flush the cache? | 19:59 |
| th0r | w8tah, not sure...did it one time but asked here about how to do it <smile> | 19:59 |
| duiu | Ice_Wewe: go to the terminal and do 'sudo vi /etc/resolv.conf' and then edit it, the should fix your overwrite error | 19:59 |
| soundray | Jockeo: try running burnP6 from the cpuburn package (read the warnings). If that brings up your CPU to 100%, then it's fine. If it doesn't, it's probably throttling due to overheating. | 19:59 |
| th0r | w8tah, I would give the uninistall a shot...worst case you end up right back here where you started | 19:59 |

| alraune | guido: can't you get the tarball ? | 20:02 |
| Ice_Wewe | duiu, it's statically defined for a reason, so this machine always has the same IP address | 20:02 |

What happens is if im using a program that uses audio (for example vlc) and then want to have audio on another one (firefox, to watch online videos), I dont get sound on the second program... I usually get it to work after messing around and killing processes such as gnome-volume-manager, pulseaudio, mixer applet, etc. And sometimes that doesnt work and i have to close one | 20:06 |
| uman | of the applications that was using audio in order to get sound on the second one. Does anyone know wthe solution to this, and is this a sort of widespread problem? THanks in advance. | 20:06 |
| Ice_Wewe | kushal1, what's the ethernet card? | 20:06 |
| Ice_Wewe | uman, use alsa instead of OSS | 20:06 |
| Ice_Wewe | uman, err, configure your applications to use ALSA instead of ALSA's OSS emulation layer | 20:07 |
| zachb | I'm having some problems with (I think) Gnome. After running for about 28-30 hours, epiphany will crash. After that, I can't start any new programs, although the ones that are already running work fine | 20:07 |
| duiu | Ice_Wewe: Sorry man, I thought that by resolvconf you were actually referring to resolv.conf, I don't know anything about resolvconf it's self. | 20:07 |
| zachb | the CPU load & memory usage is fine, though | 20:07 |
| Ice_Wewe | duiu, right, well, I've read the man page, which tells me how to overwrite, delete, and supposidly add things, but there is no example command to follow, and it never seems to commit my changes | 20:07 |
| Yacht1 | is there any way that i can rid my Powerbook G4 (running on PPC) of Linux and put Mac OS X back on there? or am i asking in the wrong place? i installed Ubuntu 8.04 but it's not as functional on a PPC laptop as it would be on, say, an Intel laptop. | 20:07 |
| Pici | Yacht1: Try ##mac | 20:08 |
| soundray | zachb: any interesting messages in $HOME/.xsession-errors ? | 20:08 |
| Yacht1 | Pici: okay | 20:08 |
| Pichu0102 | Hmm. | 20:08 |
| AaronMT | yach1, id assume you just boot with your osx install disc and follow instructions | 20:08 |
| Ice_Wewe | Yacht1, insert Mac OS X install disc, blow away partitions, go back to OS X | 20:08 |
| zachb | soundray: lets see... oh yeah, if I try restarting X11 or gdm, I can login, but I'm stuck at a blank screen w/ a cursor | 20:08 |

| Gillpy_ | Ice_Wewe: It looks like you need to look deeper into the man page | 20:09 |
| soundray | zachb: how annoying... are you on hardy? | 20:09 |
| Ice_Wewe | Gillpy_, how deep are we talking? | 20:09 |
| zachb | soundray: yes | 20:09 |
| uman | Ice_Wewe do I have to do that to applications individually or is there somewhere i can set everything to use ASLA | 20:09 |
| Pichu0102 | I tried to update the linux-image-etc file when the update popped up in update manager hoping it would fix the network card not detected issue, and instead it punted me into bulletproof X mode. Uh-oh. | 20:09 |
| kushal1 | Ice_Wewe, thank you. as far as I know it is an integrated card. I am opening hardware testing to find out the exact name | 20:09 |
| Ice_Wewe | uman, AFAIK individually | 20:09 |
| Gillpy_ | Ice_Wewe: we are talking the configuration files for resolvconf | 20:09 |
| sebrock_ | what!!!! Why cant I access my nfs mounts that has the exact same setup as the working ones??? | 20:10 |
| Pichu0102 | I think I'm stick with image somethingsomething.19 until it's fixed... | 20:10 |
| ncls | do you guys know any mac-style dock? | 20:10 |
| Yacht1 | Ice_Wewe: how do i remove all partitions?? | 20:10 |
| Ice_Wewe | Gillpy_, yes, the configuration files for resolvconf point to the correct nameserver, however resolvconf seems unable to actually put that name server in /etc/resolv.conf | 20:10 |
| alraune | kushal1: lspci | 20:10 |
| soundray | zachb: I think it may be a dbus or hal-related error. It's difficult to tell without any error messages, though. Monitor .xsession-errors and /var/log/syslog | 20:10 |
| zachb | soundray: might conduit cause this? there's a line: "WARNING: CONDUIT MAY CRASH UNEXPECTEDLY"' | 20:11 |
| guido | alraune I have to correct myself... The framework is actually installed, the log comes out when i RUN the program ltib (with the --configure option or not)... | 20:11 |
| duiu | ncls: you could try this http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&ct=res&cd=2&url=http%3A%2F%2Fmaketecheasier.com%2Fturn-your-ubuntu-hardy-to-mac-osx-leopard%2F2008%2F07%2F23%2F&ei=OA6SSK3ALojiiAH1g8ztBg&usg=AFQjCNHET_-Mp9CpR3mjLyh0TJ5ZJdnOyA&sig2=c0f2DDktqM6T0gZ3kq1l4Q | 20:11 |
| soundray | zachb: don't know what conduit is | 20:11 |
| Ice_Wewe | Yacht1, on the Mac OS X install disk, go to File - > Disk Utility, click on your ENTIRE HARD DRIVE, go to the "Partitioning" tab (or something similar) and select one partition and go from there | 20:11 |
| duiu | ncls: sorry, forgot google does their link system weird | 20:11 |
| guido | I need some help to understand the error... http://pastie.org/245070 | 20:11 |
| Ice_Wewe | Yacht1, if you need more hand holding then that, then I can't help you | 20:11 |
| soundray | zachb: you could use a virtual console for monitoring, then you don't depend on anything within gnome working | 20:11 |
| olie | soundray, I see that i thinks i got a virtual size of 1920x1080 but i want 1920x1200 as my resolution, i changed the virtual size from 1920x1200 to 0 0 in xorg.conf because i wanted to login, i could not see the login prompt if i didn't set it to "0 0". I get a bunch of warnings like this though "(WW) AIGLX: 3D driver claims to not support visual 0x23" | 20:11 |
| Ice_Wewe | Gillpy_, I'll pastebin the resolvconf configuration files | 20:12 |
| Yacht1 | Ice_Wewe: but the thing is, Ubuntu isn't even able to mount the Mac OS X volume, so I'm sort of stuck | 20:12 |
| zachb | soundray: right | 20:12 |
| RawkFish | My Evolution account does not want to start a set up wizard. This is the first time I have used this mailing system. What could be wrong?? | 20:12 |
| Ice_Wewe | Yacht1, you want to get back into Mac OS X without wiping your hard drive? | 20:12 |
| elvelind | hi. is it possible to reinstall ubuntu from inside an existing ubuntu installation? ie. not reboot to a cd | 20:12 |
| Ice_Wewe | Yacht1, that's easy, 'sudo vi /etc/yaboot' and set the default boot device to the number associated with the Mac OS X line | 20:13 |
| bricker | hey | 20:13 |
| bricker | how do we chanve nics? lol | 20:13 |
| Ice_Wewe | Yacht1, if you don't have a line for macosx in your /etc/yaboot.conf, then you have a larger problem | 20:13 |

| Ice_Wewe | Gillpy_, http://pastebin.com/m71ad2b01 | 20:15 |
| Ice_Wewe | kushal1, I've *never* heard of that before | 20:15 |
| soundray | olie: you don't see any messages about it discarding modes? | 20:16 |
| olie | soundray, it doesn't event consider the resolution i want 1920x1080 is the highest ones it lists | 20:16 |
| Balian_ | #ubuntu-pl | 20:16 |
| RawkFish | Has anyone ever seen this before?? | 20:16 |
| ncls | thanks duiu | 20:16 |
| guido | alraune the file you have seen is just the host_config.log | 20:16 |
| soundray | olie: it may be a dumb question, but does your monitor support 1920x1200? | 20:16 |
| Gillpy_ | Ice_Wewe: those dont seem to be the resolvconf config files .... | 20:17 |
| Ice_Wewe | Gillpy_, they aren't, as it states in the pastebin submission, that's /etc/network/interfaces | 20:17 |
| * Gillpy_ is confuzzled | 20:17 | |
| olie | soundray, yes if i use a "empty" Screen section in xorg.conf it chooses 1920x1200 :) | 20:17 |
| J0KeR^_ | Is there any kind of network manager for the terminal? | 20:18 |
| J0KeR^_ | Equivalent of Gnome's manager? | 20:18 |
| Ice_Wewe | Gillpy_, if I add nameserver 10.1.1.18 to /etc/resolvconf/resolv.conf.d/base I can get it to appear above nameserver 127.0.0.1, but I'd still like to know where resolvconf is getting 127.0.0.1 as a nameserver in the first place | 20:19 |
| soundray | RawkFish: no, but check whether you have a $HOME/.evolution, and if you do, move it out of the way and start again | 20:19 |
| soundray | olie: so why don't you do that? | 20:19 |
| guido | alraune i've downloaded the tarball and run an istalling script inside it, and now it seems to work... Thanks ! | 20:19 |
| win_user | hi | 20:19 |

| win_user | I just installed ubuntu for the first time | 20:19 |
| win_user | But i can't connect to the internet | 20:20 |
| Gillpy_ | Ice_Wewe: that's easy cat /etc/resolvconf/resolvconf.d/* If that outputs nameserver 127.0.0.1 then problem solved | 20:21 |
| soundray | olie: I'm not sure, but I don't think you're addressing this problem in the right way by playing with the X setup. What video player are you using? | 20:21 |

| AcidRain | but the system runs, and all of the ram is recognized. | 20:26 |
| soundray | olie: I think you should ask in this channel. Do report your flickering problem first, because your X setup seems to be fine. | 20:26 |
| ArielMT | AcidRain: how exactly does memtest "crash"? | 20:26 |
| AcidRain | its running test 2 and then the comp just turns off. Vista will run fine for awhile (over 30 min) but it will do the same thing randomly | 20:27 |
| soundray | th0r: System-Admin-Software Sources, third tab | 20:27 |
| ArielMT | sounds like heat to me, though a bad stick of ram could do the trick, too | 20:27 |
| olie | soundray, I did and i got the response that i should try and setup my monitor correctly, well thanks anyway | 20:27 |
| Ice_Wewe | Gillpy_, no, 127.0.0.1 is not contained in any of those files | 20:27 |

| AcidRain | it will boot with both of them | 20:30 |
| ArielMT | AcidRain: what about only one of them? | 20:30 |
| AcidRain | yes | 20:30 |
| soundray | AcidRain: if you can boot with just one of them, you can find out with memtest86 which one of the two is faulty | 20:30 |
| Ice_Wewe | Gillpy_, ok, well since the real nameserver is inserted before 127.0.0.1 name resolution works, that's all I care about for now | 20:30 |
| AcidRain | so whatever stick it crashes with is the faulty one | 20:30 |

| th0r | sioux, x-forwarding is better in my opinion than vnc. And if you decide to go with vnc look into NX from NoMachine.com | 20:45 |
| nibsa1242b | soundray: gregge I tried to complain about that with my last laptop... neither M$ nor Gateway would agree to give me a refund. I guess I could have sued them, but I didn't have the time to pursue that. | 20:45 |

| th0r | sioux, vnc will allow many users on the same machine, yes | 20:47 |
| nibsa1242b | AcidRain: just memtest86 your ram... it'll let you know if its bad | 20:48 |
| donwall | jcovert: make firefox run on the screen that no one would see | 20:48 |

| soundray | AcidRain: your memory controller is most likely faulty | 20:49 |
| AcidRain | so the ram or the mobo? | 20:49 |
| nibsa1242b | AcidRain: if its crashing on memtest, you probably either have a processor, memory, or Mobo issue. Have you tried memtesting each stick of ram individually? | 20:49 |

| Jockeo | soundray: You should. nibsa1242b: It's a 3 year old IBM centrino laptop. You think the dust might be the problem? | 20:50 |
| soundray | andare: you are not entitled to help, and stop swearing in this channel. Last warning. | 20:50 |
| donwall | jcovert: i think the problem is that firefox needs an instance of xwin to run, it wont run without a gui | 20:50 |
| nibsa1242b | AcidRain: then you'll probably need to test the ram in another machine to rule it out. | 20:50 |
| jcovert | donwall: and without a graphics card and monitor, it is impossible? | 20:51 |
| donwall | jcovert: it could either forward the gui to you via ssh, or just run the gui locally | 20:51 |

What happens is if im using a program that uses audio (for example vlc) and then want to have audio on another one (firefox, to watch online videos), I dont get sound on the second program... I usually get it to work after messing around and killing processes such as gnome-volume-manager, pulseaudio, mixer applet, etc. And sometimes that doesnt work and i have to close one | 20:54 |

| JontyO | soundray: reinstallation of grub is not possible, it cannot be downloaded | 21:14 |
| Guest88425 | i gut no updates | 21:14 |
| soundray | Guest88425: the grub command was not for you | 21:14 |
| JontyO | lolz | 21:15 |
| Guest88425 | in addition apttitude had problem for updating, it said something like update was noy sucseffule etc | 21:15 |
| soundray | JontyO: does this one work: 'dpkg-reconfigure grub' | 21:15 |
| lemon | hi, i have a laptop computer and I would like a built-in wireless device such a pcmcia or something similar with the same function, what chip or manufacturer is better? | 21:15 |
| JontyO | Yes | 21:16 |
| JontyO | soundray: Yes | 21:16 |
| arthur | i dont think you can skip versions cant go from 6 to 8 | 21:16 |
| JontyO | sorry gotta get used to type soundray: every time :P | 21:16 |
| JontyO | arthur: You cant, you need the new cd | 21:16 |
| soundray | lemon: go for USB if you have a 2.0 port. Devices with a Zydas chip are cheap and work out of the box (unfortunately often hard to tell from the packaging what chip is inside) | 21:16 |
| jussi01 | !tab | JontyO | 21:17 |
| ubottu | JontyO: You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line. | 21:17 |

| Kinks | is there any way to 'gracefully' dismount swap so I can change its size? | 21:17 |

| Guest88425 | JontyO: i did, but i have no working cd !!!! | 21:18 |
| Kinks | serkan`c: thanks again | 21:18 |
| JontyO | Guest88425: What you mean do working CD? | 21:18 |

| Guest88425 | no, it just not working, i do not know, it might be the cd itself, but i assume i could just apt-get and do all the instaltion without cd, am i wrong about it? | 21:20 |
| Dethray | Anyone know if xchat supports real transparency? | 21:20 |
| Merritt | Attempting to boot the 8.04 LiveCD, apparently the monitor won't accept such a low resolution (native is 1680x1050 @ 60Hz) - Is there a way to specify it use a higher res (like 1024x768 maybe?) during livecd / install? | 21:20 |
| DjViper | Dethray: no, it does not | 21:20 |

| Dethray | I actually found a patch for it, DJ, but it's a year old | 21:22 |
| gfather | guys any help on dpkg | 21:22 |
| serkan`c | in chroot can you ping google? | 21:22 |
| Dethray | and it looks messy | 21:22 |

| soundray | JontyO: were you going to do something with resolv.conf? That wasn't for you | 21:24 |
| JontyO | soundray: Yea i was | 21:24 |

| serkan`c | Johnny: sleep? | 21:38 |
| Xecuter | jcovert, thanks even more ^ | 21:38 |
| serkan`c | anirudh0: :D if it is ffx 3 , i can shut up :D | 21:38 |
| iperich | anirudh0: there is no workaround for this, i guess? | 21:38 |

| AcidRain | ok. I have 2 sticks of f2 gig ddr2 1066 ram. I used the memtest on the live cd to test in another system and they were fine. When I put in my system however, and do memtest it crashes. I tested them each in every slot. No error messages the computer jsut turns off. The computer will boot and runs fine, for maybe 45 minutes and then it will crash (using vista) no warning or blue screen it just turns off. Can anyone help me? | 21:38 |
| mads- | How do I launch the JAVA control panel in ubuntu? | 21:38 |
| anirudh0 | Johnny: you mean it should show a countdown? | 21:39 |

| anirudh0 | iperich: if you find one. ping me ;) | 21:39 |

| anirudh0 | Johnny: google for it..i remember one from long ago..sleep works without a countdown display | 21:39 |
| nixnoob | AcidRain: pay attention to the thermal readings, if the CPU temp goes really high just before the reboot then thats your prob, if not its mobo | 21:39 |
| Malgaur | with iptables, if I ACCEPT something in INPUT does it still get processed in POSTROUTING? | 21:39 |

| Miesco | It wont load any of my songs | 21:40 |
| Johnny | dont know how to script | 21:40 |
| serkan`c | i was gonna tell this :D like scrot Johnny | 21:40 |
| Kinks | Anon1935: whatever you're talking about is specific to your editor, which I don't use, and likely has NOTHING to do with /boot/grub/menu.lst, like I said, you're probably going to have to show me a screenshot for me to get any idea what the heck you're talking about, otherwise I can't really help you. | 21:40 |
| serkan`c | so get scrot and look the script :) Johnny | 21:40 |
| iperich | anirudh0: hehehe.... ok, thanks... i guess that the only workaround by now is to play the music in the first place and then check my email.... | 21:40 |
| Johnny | i have scrot | 21:40 |
| Kinks | Anon1935: oh wait, I think I know what you're talking about now | 21:41 |
| serkan`c | anirudh0: so with ffx 3 on gmail we cant listen mp3s? | 21:41 |
| Kinks | Anon1935: you want to change the interface of grub? | 21:41 |
| anirudh0 | iperich: well...i close ff3..it remembers tabs..open amarok..then reopen ff..not really a workaround though :) | 21:41 |
| Sergeant_Pony | johnny ? | 21:41 |
| khajex | if i got a xubuntu desktop installatin, can i convert it after install to server edition? | 21:41 |
| Kinks | Anon1935: you really need to be more clear about what you really want to do | 21:41 |
| anirudh0 | serkan`c: it happens sporadically..not sure of the exact cause..but only happens if gmail is open in javascript mode | 21:41 |
| iperich | anirudh0: yes, i discovered it myself... it sucks but it works... | 21:42 |
| Anon1935 | Kinks got an e-Mail. I work up a screen shot of how I want the edit to look like. Very easy to understand. | 21:42 |

| Gnea | Anon1935: you open the file, you change the lines you need them to be, you save it, you quit. that's it. | 21:42 |

| khajex | how should i do that? | 21:42 |
| Kinks | Gnea: I think he wants to change the interface grub uses at boot, I'm quite lost. | 21:42 |
| Gnea | Kinks: either that or he's a troll | 21:43 |
| Anon1935 | Gnea you cannot edit this in Menu.lst Do you know where I can edit the bottom instructions | 21:43 |
| Kinks | Gnea: I was starting to wonder that too | 21:43 |

| Kinks | Anon1935: you cannot directly change how grub looks unless that change is a side effect of enabling some option unless you change the grub source code to suit your needs and rebuild it, then install your custom version | 21:44 |
| Kinks | Anon1935: something I'm not sure you're quite up to at this point | 21:45 |
| Gnea | Anon1935: ah ok, yes, that one does exist. so what do you want grub to be able to do when the system starts, exactly? | 21:45 |

| AcidRain | ok, using memtest causes the com to crash. I know the ram is fine. So if it is a problem with the mobo, would i be able to actually boot and run windows? | 21:53 |
| Merritt | 8.04 LiveCD - Is it possible to specify the monitor's refresh rate for a livecd session? | 21:53 |
| phantomcircuit | every window i open has the title off the top of the screen | 21:53 |
| phantomcircuit | what gives? | 21:53 |
| gyroscope | Merritt, it's possible with the control panel | 21:54 |
| AcidRain | ok, using memtest causes the com to crash. I know the ram is fine. So if it is a problem with the mobo, would i be able to actually boot and run windows? | 21:54 |
| Shujah | phantomcircuit, using compiz? | 21:54 |
| Gnea | phantomcircuit: did you change the theme? | 21:54 |
| anirudh0 | AcidRain: unlikely..but you have nothing to lose by trying | 21:54 |
| Johnny | how do i set it up so i can ssh into my machine from anywhere | 21:54 |
| Balian | #ubuntu-pl | 21:54 |

| adamfalkofske | could someone help me get a memory stick duo work with my HP laptop? | 21:54 |
| anirudh0 | Johnny: you have a public ip? | 21:54 |
| ikonia | AcidRain: if the board is faulty - the OS doesn't matter | 21:54 |
| Merritt | gyroscope: I mean as a boot option. | 21:54 |
| Johnny | no anirudh0 | 21:54 |
| AcidRain | so it wouldnt be able to boot at all | 21:54 |
| ikonia | AcidRain: try it | 21:54 |
| Gnea | AcidRain: does memtest make the crash when there are no hds attached? | 21:54 |
| Johnny | is there something where i can register a free dhcp ip ? | 21:54 |
| Blaqlight | AcidRain: it sounds like your mobo is faulty, change it. | 21:55 |
| anirudh0 | Johnny: then you first need access to a computer on your lan that does have a public ip | 21:55 |
| Gillpy_ | Johnny: you mean dyndyns | 21:55 |
| kushal1 | I am using Ubuntu 8.4.1 on a compaq desktop with Pentium III processor, 20 gb hard disk, and 384 MB RAM | 21:55 |
| kushal1 | I am pasting lspci on paste bin. http://pastebin.com/m23753eee How can I get my network card working? | 21:55 |
| AcidRain | well it can boot, so the ram is fine and the mobo is fine yet memtest crashes when i run | 21:55 |
| ikonia | kushal1: ifconfig -a do you see your cards | 21:55 |
| wols_ | Johnny: only place you can get public IPs is from your ISP | 21:55 |
| ikonia | AcidRain: then the ram isn't fine - or the board isn't fine | 21:55 |
| Gillpy_ | Johnny: dyndns.com I meant | 21:55 |
| AcidRain | well i tested the ram in another com and it was fine | 21:56 |
| wols_ | AcidRain: if memtest is crashing it is NOT fine and a bootup doesn't prove anything at all | 21:56 |
| Johnny | is it free Gillpy_ ? | 21:56 |
| serkan`c | Johnny: free dhcp ip? | 21:56 |
| gyroscope | Merritt, want you change boot option? | 21:56 |
| AcidRain | and it can boot so i assume the mobo is fine | 21:56 |
| ikonia | AcidRain: doesn't mean it's fine | 21:56 |
| anirudh0 | Gillpy_: dyndns is just "naming sugar"...your ip must be visible first | 21:56 |
| Blaqlight | ikonia: he claims to have tested it with success on another board. | 21:56 |
| ikonia | AcidRain: just because it boots doesn't mean it's fine | 21:56 |
| AcidRain | ok | 21:56 |
| wols_ | AcidRain: those are ALL wrong assumptions | 21:56 |
| Gillpy_ | Johnny: yes but I dont no if it's what you want | 21:56 |
| phantomcircuit | Shujah, Gnea, Blaqlight, im using compiz | 21:56 |
| Gnea | AcidRain: disconnect the mobo, boot the livecd and run memtest from that. | 21:56 |
| Gnea | AcidRain: s/mobo/hd/g | 21:56 |
| Johnny | i just want it so i can ssh into my desktop from school or whereever | 21:56 |
| ikonia | Gnea: don't be silly | 21:56 |
| wols_ | Johnny: if you have a dynamic IP, then yes | 21:56 |
| Merritt | gyroscope: Yes.. The refresh rate for the monitor I am using is 60Hz, and the default refresh rate doesn't work with this monitor, so I can't get past the initial "Try ubuntu.." screen. | 21:56 |
| Gnea | ikonia: leave me alone. | 21:56 |
| anirudh0 | Gnea: neat idea | 21:56 |
| AcidRain | gnea: you cant disconnect the mobo | 21:57 |
| Shujah | phantomcircuit, then try reloading compiz & checkout emerald themes | 21:57 |
| wols_ | AcidRain: he corrected himself | 21:57 |
| Gnea | AcidRain: again, disconnect the hd. | 21:57 |

| ikonia | ljpp: they are not "borked" your having an issue | 22:14 |
| ikonia | cypherdelic: what have you installed | 22:14 |
| ljpp | ikonia, actually it is - reports are flooding | 22:14 |
| cypherdelic | ikonia: you mean i cant recompile mms with enabled-tv???? | 22:14 |
| pc06 | hi......... | 22:14 |
| ikonia | ljpp: where ? | 22:14 |
| ncls | hi people | 22:15 |
| ljpp | ikonia, The Internet? | 22:15 |
| ikonia | cypherdelic: you certainly can, but to change the build options you have to reconfigure it | 22:15 |
| ompaul | ljpp, give examples please | 22:15 |
| ikonia | ljpp: can you show me a bug report for these flooding in reports | 22:15 |
| ncls | can someone tell me how to get my external screen to work? | 22:15 |
| ljpp | it is in Ubuntu Brainstorm at least | 22:15 |
| ikonia | ljpp: please show me a bug report | 22:15 |
| cypherdelic | i know that i have the ./configure --enable...blabla of my suit, i already tried but when i start mms it is the same old thing | 22:15 |
| cypherdelic | ikonia: | 22:15 |

| D3RGPS31 | How do I install Grub2 when by boot directory is erased? | 22:16 |
| ikonia | D3RGPS31: are you %101 sure you want to do that | 22:16 |
| ncls | someone, anyone? | 22:16 |
| Dethray | erased? | 22:16 |
| Pici | alraun1: #freenode is a good place to start | 22:16 |
| D3RGPS31 | ikonia: it's already gone, so yes | 22:16 |
| Gillpy_ | alraun1: #freenode maybe | 22:16 |
| cypherdelic | ikonia: i tried sudo make clean, is there anthing else i need to do? | 22:16 |
| Dethray | Do you still have the mount point? | 22:16 |
| Blaqlight | ncls: we need more details, why isn't it working, have you tried to connect it... so on, and so on... | 22:16 |
| ikonia | D3RGPS31: grub2 is not installed by defalt | 22:16 |
| ikonia | cypherdelic: that only cleans the source not the target install | 22:17 |
| cypherdelic | ikonia: or was it "clean; make clean"? | 22:17 |
| ikonia | cypherdelic: no, that only cleans the source buid. | 22:17 |
| cypherdelic | ikonia: so do you know what i have to do? | 22:17 |
| ikonia | cypherdelic: you'lll have to overwrite or remove the install components | 22:17 |
| D3RGPS31 | i know the mount points, grub's been removed | 22:17 |
| ikonia | !grub > D3RGPS31 | 22:17 |
| ubottu | D3RGPS31, please see my private message | 22:17 |
| cypherdelic | ikonia: shouldnt sudo make install do thst (overwrite)? | 22:17 |
| ikonia | cypherdelic: depending on your configure options | 22:18 |
| cypherdelic | ikonia: i dont know about that what s it? | 22:18 |
| Pici | cypherdelic: some developers include a make uninstall or a make remove... but definitely not all. | 22:18 |
| DIFH-iceroot | i am using ubuntu 8.04.1 with my eeepc (4gb) but the wlan and attansic NIC is not working. what should i do? i can not access the internet/ubuntu repos with the eeePC | 22:18 |
| ikonia | cypherdelic: the options specify where the product is to be installed, if you change that it won't overwrite it | 22:18 |
| cypherdelic | Pici: i will never try out a "sudo make uninstall" again last time it cripled my system | 22:19 |
| UltraNav | anyone here using VirtualBox 1.6.2 and has USB working ? | 22:19 |

| D3RGPS31 | ikonia: yes i'm sure | 22:19 |
| cypherdelic | ikonia: i din't change that i just enabled stufgf and make and sudo make install again | 22:19 |
| ikonia | ljpp: thats someones website, thats not a bug report, nor is that "mass reports" | 22:19 |
| alraune | sry, my pidgin crashed: is there a channel to discuss irc related questions ? | 22:19 |
| ompaul | ljpp, that is not a bug report, bug reports go to launchpad.net anyone can write an article | 22:19 |
| D3RGPS31 | ikonia: if you can't support for that here, then i'll just go back to grub | 22:19 |

| D3RGPS31 | ikonia: thanks | 22:20 |
| ikonia | D3RGPS31: we can support grub2, just not many people really want it | 22:20 |
| Switchcat | is there a native .rar handler or what should I install to handle .rar archives? thanks | 22:20 |
| Blaqlight | alraune: like others have already told you; try #freenode. | 22:20 |
| UltraNav | alraune: type "/list" to get a list of available channels | 22:20 |
| Dethray | what is the diff from grub and grub2 | 22:20 |
| Shujah | Drk_Guy, maybe you ought to port forward on router | 22:20 |
| genii | !unrar | Switchcat | 22:20 |
| ubottu | Switchcat: rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free | 22:20 |

| genii | Switchcat: unrar-free does not allow creation of rar is the main difference functionally | 22:21 |
| cypherdelic | ikonia: dont you have any idea why the sudo make install does not correctly overwrite the old installation i didnt change installation path | 22:21 |
| cygoku | Under Nautilus, is there anyway to add more List Columns preferencies/options (such as sorting image or video by resolution (like under Windows)) ?!?!?!? | 22:21 |
| ikonia | cypherdelic: I told you | 22:21 |
| ljpp | ikonia, was Linus refering to you about the wanking walruses? | 22:21 |
| Blaqlight | ... | 22:22 |
| Shujah | cypherdelic, mostly the default behavior is to keep the config files of same software you want to reinstall | 22:22 |
| cypherdelic | ikonia: yopu told me, that when i change the option for the installation path it WONT overwrite it | 22:22 |
| Blaqlight | cygoku: right click on the columns | 22:22 |
| ikonia | cypherdelic: yes, and you said you didn't change the path | 22:22 |
| Blaqlight | column's header | 22:22 |
| Dethray | what's a good server for vnc or can I use vmware server? | 22:22 |
| Blaqlight | it should give you the options you want | 22:22 |
| cypherdelic | Shujah: So do you know which steps i have to go through to recompile and install mms? | 22:22 |
| genii | cypherdelic: If you have a previous install by compile when you want to re-make it with new options or so, do make clean first then repeat original make process | 22:23 |
| harisund | Dethray: VNC and Vmware server do two totally different things .. what are you trying to do? | 22:23 |
| Shujah | cypherdelic, no ikonia looks a better bet :P | 22:23 |
| ikonia | cypherdelic: you know what, you need to reconfigure, make it, and re-install it | 22:23 |
| Dethray | that's what I thought | 22:23 |
| Dethray | Remote desktop | 22:23 |
| Drk_Guy | Shujah: Nope, router's firewall id disabled, Firestarter worked fine on my previous hardy install | 22:23 |
| cypherdelic | genii: thats what i tried but "sudo make clean" i will try again without sudo, thanks for thant | 22:23 |
| cygoku | Blaqlight, Yes I know that, but I was wondering if there was any way or packages to give my MORE sorting options then what's already there. | 22:23 |
| Shujah | Drk_Guy, are you using moblock or any type of peer guardian type software | 22:24 |
| cypherdelic | ikonia: i did reconfigure, make and make install, i already said that, dont i??? | 22:24 |

| arthrone | hi guys | 22:24 |
| Dark_Shadow | http://www.hexavideo.com/ | 22:24 |
| cypherdelic | ikonia: no because, i enabled clock, i enabled this and that, and ALL is missing, its still the same installation, | 22:24 |
| ikonia | cypherdelic: remove the old ones then | 22:25 |
| Dark_Shadow | i tried to run a film | 22:25 |
| cypherdelic | ikonia: seems like you dont got my point right from the beginning | 22:25 |
| Dark_Shadow | but it said that le plugin (application/x-mplayer2) est inconnu. | 22:25 |
| cypherdelic | ikonia: the old ones of what? | 22:25 |
| Drk_Guy | Shujah: Nope, only firestarter | 22:25 |
| ikonia | cypherdelic: the old binaries/libraries | 22:25 |
| harisund | Dethray: If remote desktop is what you want to do you can use X11vnc I think, or the default remote desktop option that comes with Ubuntu | 22:26 |
| genii | pizux: For the dual booting of macos and linux you'll likely want Bootcamp | 22:26 |
| Dethray | oh cool | 22:26 |
| Dethray | I'll do some searching, thanx harisund | 22:26 |
| Dark_Shadow | i'm asking you | 22:26 |
| Exuro | my problem: I finally got my wireless card up & running with the ndiswrapper, and I can see my network now, but I can't connect to it. It's protected with a WEP 64-bit key, but it just prompts me for the key over and over... | 22:26 |
| Dark_Shadow | oO | 22:26 |
| Blaqlight | wow I like zsh better than bash for installing programs... its like the -v switch for all commands. | 22:26 |
| cypherdelic | ikonia: hm so it is ok if i remove the /usr/bin of mms and do make clean, ./configure --bla, make and sudo make install? | 22:26 |
| Dark_Shadow | no one could help??? | 22:26 |
| Drk_Guy | Shujah: sorry, using pidgin, it won't alert you of new messages | 22:26 |

| Balian | Kinks i can't login. I see only black monitor ad info : starting program has not work correctly | 22:28 |
| Shujah | Drk_Guy, sorry these are the usual suspects can't help here | 22:28 |
| DRebellion | metalpres, of course. | 22:28 |
| metalpres | i can play 1080p video in windows smoothly, but in ubuntu I cant even get 720p video to play well | 22:28 |
| Blaqlight | anyone here use erc for emacs? | 22:28 |
| DRebellion | metalpres, what video card have you got? | 22:28 |
| Drk_Guy | Shujah: :( | 22:28 |
| metalpres | nvidia 8600 | 22:29 |
| DRebellion | metalpres, have you installed the drivers? | 22:29 |
| Johnny | i set up a dyndyns hostname how do i ssh in | 22:29 |
| metalpres | running latest nvidia drivers | 22:29 |
| kokko | I cannot watch youtube, can anyone tell me whats the problem there? | 22:29 |

| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about enyng | 22:29 |
| Johnny | but ssh gets refused | 22:29 |
| DRebellion | Drk_Guy, ? | 22:29 |
| ikonia | Drk_Guy: that is not the first port of call | 22:29 |
| Drk_Guy | !envyng | DRebellion | 22:29 |
| ubottu | DRebellion: envyng is an updated version of the *UNSUPPORTED* envy package. It is now part of the ubuntu universe repository (envyng-gtk OR envyng-qt) we suggest you use envyng if every other (official/supported) method fails! it can have various results from works, to fails!!! if you want the very latest drivers from the manufacturer you use them at your own risk | 22:29 |
| Shujah | dude you cant get a 720p video to play on a nvidia 8600 :| | 22:29 |
| Drk_Guy | ikonia: Huh? | 22:29 |
| ikonia | Drk_Guy: pay attention to the "UNSUPPORTED" words in that factoid | 22:29 |
| Dethray | anyone know of a good free, dynamic dns service? :) | 22:29 |
| ikonia | Drk_Guy: nvidia problems do not = envyng | 22:29 |
| ikonia | Dethray: not an ubuntu issue | 22:29 |
| th0r | Dethray, dyndns | 22:30 |
| chhahz | anyone? touch screen installation help ? | 22:30 |
| Dethray | Sorry | 22:30 |
| Drk_Guy | ikonia: envy was unsupported, envyng is supported | 22:30 |
| ikonia | Drk_Guy: community support still creates a lot of efforts | 22:30 |
| Dethray | One that works in ubuntu. ;) | 22:30 |
| Drk_Guy | ikonia: anyway, i had a VERY uncool hard time with my nvidia card, envyng fixed it with some clicks ;) | 22:30 |
| Drk_Guy | ikonia: It has saved me two times | 22:30 |
| ikonia | Drk_Guy: hundreds would say the oposite | 22:30 |
| Johnny | how do i get dyndns to let me ssh in? | 22:31 |
| Dethray | Agreed ikonia | 22:31 |
| ikonia | Johnny: not an ubuntu issue | 22:31 |
| DRebellion | Johnny, forward port 22 to your router | 22:31 |
| {buster} | I like Ubuntu and I probably won't use Windows again, despite being new to Linux :) | 22:31 |
| ikonia | Johnny: once dns is set up, and mapped to an ip - if you install the openssh-server package you can ssh in | 22:31 |
| Drk_Guy | ikonia: Still, it was a suggestion, if you don't like it :/ | 22:31 |
| metalpres | DRebellion: Nvidia 8600 GTS with the latest nforce drivers | 22:31 |
| Dethray | I don't have many issues with ubuntu, everything works just fine. :) | 22:31 |
| DRebellion | metalpres, well *shrug* | 22:31 |
| ikonia | Drk_Guy: suggestions are fine - but that is not the first thing to sugggest | 22:31 |
| Drk_Guy | {buster}: :), i've done the complete switch, no regrets | 22:32 |
| metalpres | DRebellion: what do you mean *shrug*? I thought you said you knew how? | 22:32 |
| {buster} | very good :-) | 22:32 |
| DRebellion | metalpres, i don't. | 22:32 |
| Drk_Guy | ikonia: i don't find envyng messing up with the system too much | 22:32 |
| Johnny | ikonia, is there something i can set up so say i connect my laptop at a friends house and using his wireless router it will automatically assign an ip based on the domain i choose | 22:32 |
| metalpres | DRebellion: ok | 22:32 |
| Exuro | Blaqlight: sorry, I got distracted. what's nm-applet? the network manager? yes. I tried wicd too but that didn't work either, and then my wire connection stopped working and I couldn't reinstall nm and I had to go download it to a flash drive and install it from there... | 22:32 |
| {buster} | no more paying hunders for windows, related products, and crashes :) | 22:32 |
| ikonia | Drk_Guy: as I said hundreds will disagree- re-read the factoid you posted, the fact that it's warning you "results may vary" says a lot | 22:32 |
| Drk_Guy | ikonia: Anyway... | 22:33 |
| ikonia | {buster}: if you want to chat about non-support issues #ubuntu-offtopic is the best place | 22:33 |
| Drk_Guy | ikonia: You know any good iptables managing soft? | 22:33 |

| chhahz | compiz is installed but nothing to do with touchscreen that i see | 22:39 |
| ScrewdriverClock | my problem is with input, not output | 22:39 |
| ScrewdriverClock | hearing sounds in alsa is not a problem | 22:39 |
| Kinks | Balian: my guess is that the display driver X uses isn't working (ie. probably is not the right one) and your gui login is failing to run, in which case you can log in via console to address the issue - if not, try booting into recovery mode | 22:39 |
| ScrewdriverClock | my problem comes in using alsa for recording. | 22:39 |

| Drk_Guy | kaktuspalme: apt-cache can only show packages info | 22:44 |
| Drk_Guy | kaktuspalme: anyway, i think you can try: apt-cache dump | grep <file> just to see | 22:45 |

| Drk_Guy | jacoblyles: they're ususally mounted @ /mount/cdrom0 | 22:46 |
| jacoblyles | okay I did that, now what? | 22:46 |
| genii | jacoblyles: Usually the cdrom contents are mounted (spliced) into the filesystem at /media/cdrom | 22:46 |
| Shujah | jacoblyles, in Ubuntu its like \media\cdrom0\filename | 22:46 |
| tlove | Drk_Guy: thats what i was looking for, thanks. | 22:46 |

| ChristianB | Hello, anyone up for a simple question from me? Every time I turn on my laptop I need to controll the contrast/backlight with FN + Keys , is thee a way to permanent set this so I don't have to on every start up? | 23:09 |
| Blaqlight | Kinks: I know others that use it there also, again flwlessly | 23:10 |
| FLUbuntu | derrich: that is what I am reading, but I do not have much choice on this laptop | 23:10 |
| Drk_Guy | derrich: Someone's making a driver for ATi, opensource, and with 3D capabilities | 23:10 |
| derrich | Drk_Guy: the 'radeon' and 'ati' drivers exist | 23:10 |
| Kinks | Blaqlight: hm, almost tempting, thanks for the info | 23:10 |
| derrich | but they have limited 3d capabilities | 23:10 |
| derrich | the 'fglrx' driver is the full-on device | 23:10 |
| Drk_Guy | derrich: I think their just 2D accelerated | 23:10 |
| Drk_Guy | :( | 23:10 |
| Exuro | I can't connect to my wireless network. I can see it, but when I try to connect it keeps prompting me for the security key. It's WEB-64bit encrypted. | 23:10 |
| Blaqlight | cygoku: I don't know if thats possible. Im sure there is some file or menu option somewhere that might but I have no clue where to start looking. | 23:10 |
| derrich | which is what i think you want for the X300, btw | 23:10 |
| Drk_Guy | derrich: this guy is making full-3D | 23:11 |
| Blaqlight | cygoku: it just wouldn't be linux without the ability to change it :D | 23:11 |
| FLUbuntu | yes, for running WOW you need 3D | 23:11 |
| Drk_Guy | Exuro: Tried the broadcom stuff i sent you? | 23:11 |

| powertool08 | Drk_Guy: does he have a project page? | 23:11 |
| Kinks | Exuro: I'm guessing it connects fine with encryption turned off? (assuming you can even try that..) | 23:11 |
| Drk_Guy | powertool08: yes, but don't have URL, i read it from compiz-fusion.org | 23:11 |
| Filthy-God | Calculators can run WOW... no need for 3D | 23:11 |
| Filthy-God | Wow is too optimized. | 23:11 |

| FLUbuntu | WOW crashed on boot when the closed ATI drivers are running | 23:12 |
| Exuro | Drk_Guy:it makes reference to the ndiswrapper there | 23:13 |
| Exuro | so I should be ok using that... | 23:13 |

| trigpin | !MailServer | 23:31 |
| ubottu | Ubuntu supports the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) and provides mail server software of many kinds. You can install a basic email handling configuration with the "Mail server" task during installation, or with the "tasksel" command.

| cellofellow | Stavros: I wish I knew more, email servers are a PITA, but maybe you can find some how to's using Exim 4 or Postfix. | 23:34 |
| Blaqlight | R0b0t1: close the window, then reopen it, sometimes it won't show right away | 23:34 |
| derrich | ok ... i guess i just need to set up alsa output in the configs for mplayer, vlc, amarok and firefox :| | 23:34 |
| Daleus | bye everyone | 23:34 |
| Blaqlight | R0b0t1: if that doesn't work, don;t click and drag, use "Import | 23:34 |
| Daleus | derrich | 23:34 |
| Stavros | cellofellow: i'm looking, but it looks like i have to change the config by hand quite a bit :/ | 23:34 |
| derrich | kind of a pain in the neck, but as long as it gets the job done i guess | 23:34 |
| Daleus | you can set alsa for everything in the ubuntu sound settings | 23:34 |
| Stavros | cellofellow: unfortunately gmail isn't good enough | 23:35 |
| Daleus | system - preferences - sound | 23:35 |
| derrich | aah - ok | 23:35 |
| Daleus | I hae everything on alsa, so they all work! wahey! | 23:35 |
| derrich | see, that was working previously as 'autodetect' | 23:35 |
| derrich | but once i installed the aoss wrapper (for WoW + wine + teamspeak), autodetect no longer worked | 23:35 |
| Daleus | Yeah, it 'used' to work :P | 23:35 |
| derrich | yeah, exactly | 23:35 |
| Daleus | Yeah, My exact problem derrich | 23:35 |
| cellofellow | Stavros: Yeah, I use Gmail for some stuff, and have Gmail as my SmartHost on my Exim installation. Annoyingly it rewrites the from: in my mail headers to only my email address. | 23:35 |
| Daleus | if I opened wow first | 23:35 |
| Daleus | no teamspeak sound | 23:35 |
| derrich | welp, i already went and configured mplayer/vlc/amarok to use alsa | 23:36 |
| derrich | i wish i had known to just switch 'autodetect' to 'alsa' as a system-wide setting | 23:36 |
| cellofellow | Stavros: but, with the configuration files, that's the only way to do it. As far as I know the only email server that uses GUI configs is Exchange and who wants to use that? | 23:36 |
| Stavros | cellofellow: i don't like how it adds the sender: address of the gmail account even when i use alternate addresses | 23:36 |
| derrich | that would've saved some time in man pages | 23:36 |
| Stavros | cellofellow: not me :p | 23:36 |
| derrich | Daleus: and you use aoss for both WoW and teamspeak, right? | 23:36 |
| Daleus | teamspeak still messes up on mine though, what I did was 'sudo apt-get install alsa-oss' then go to the teamspeak run file and add "aoss" before the teamspeak command | 23:36 |
| Stavros | cellofellow: the problem with those tutorials is that you never know if they're up to date, and may end up with a broken installation | 23:37 |
| Blaqlight | if only crimsun were around, he'd be able to help more with audio related problems... | 23:37 |
| derrich | yeah, aoss is a wrapper for oss-only apps to use alsa's software mixing | 23:37 |
| cellofellow | Stavros: if at first you don't succeed, try try again. | 23:37 |
| derrich | i know what the fix was, i just couldn't figure out why installing aoss broke the rest of the audio autodetection | 23:37 |
| Daleus | ah, yeah. | 23:37 |
| cellofellow | Daleus: use padsp on a PulseAudio system, not aoss. | 23:37 |
| eviscere | the Vista "Mojave Experiment" -- the outtakes apparently. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mtXRnel2GT8 | 23:38 |
| Daleus | I couldn't seem to get padsp to work with my mic | 23:38 |
| cellofellow | derrich: padsp is the wrapper for OSS apps using PulseAudio. | 23:38 |
| derrich | hmmm ... even after setting alsa from the sound prefs, amarok doesn't work if it's left to 'autodetect' | 23:38 |
| Daleus | it wouldn't pick it up | 23:38 |
| cellofellow | hmmm | 23:38 |
| Blaqlight | eviscere: please stay on topic, vista is certainly not on topic :P | 23:38 |
| cellofellow | I haven't gotten PulseAudio to work with a mic period. | 23:38 |

| derrich | oh well. i can manually tell all of the apps i use on a regular basis to use alsa, so i guess it's 'good enough' | 23:39 |
| derrich | kindofabuzz: are you sure sshd is still up and running on the machine? | 23:39 |

| kindofabuzz | ahhh may be down correct, hmm | 23:39 |

| abadr | If I'm going to install, say, libxml from apt-get, how do I found out which exact version of libxml it would be installing? | 23:40 |
| cellofellow | Stavros: It'd be better to find a good smarthost that doesn't rewrite headers, your ISPs maybe, because home servers are often blocked as an anti-spam measure. | 23:40 |
| kindofabuzz | derrich, cellofellow yeah that was it. =) | 23:40 |

| eviscere | thx blaqlight! :-) | 23:47 |
| cellofellow | kindofabuzz: the default xserver address for SSH forwarding is :10.0 | 23:47 |
| Blaqlight | eviscere: :D | 23:47 |
| derrich | ok - do you want X11 forwarding to be displayed on a Windows machine or another *nix machine? | 23:47 |
| Leo | hello | 23:47 |
| cellofellow | kindofabuzz: localhost:10.0 rather | 23:47 |
| kindofabuzz | derrich: no 'dows on this network | 23:48 |
| Blaqlight | !es | Leo | 23:48 |
| ubottu | Leo: En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. | 23:48 |
| cellofellow | don't bother with SSH forwarding in a LAN | 23:48 |
| ncls | can someone tell me how to get an external screen to work (macbook)? | 23:48 |
| kindofabuzz | cellofellow: why not? | 23:48 |
| Leo | someone know how to deactivate the help poupups? | 23:48 |
| derrich | kindofabuzz: on the machine you want the display to show up on, use "ssh -X -l <username> <address of host that runs sshd>" | 23:49 |
| joshua24 | ncls: environment? gnome i suspect | 23:49 |
| Leo | yes | 23:49 |
| ncls | yeah, gnome - it doesnt work as it should | 23:49 |
| kindofabuzz | derrich: yeah i knew that, just wondering if there is a config setting to auto do once already in a ssh session | 23:49 |
| joshua24 | problem, ncls | 23:49 |
| joshua24 | ? | 23:49 |
| derrich | oh. heh | 23:49 |
| derrich | a config setting to automatically forward X? so you don't have to use 'ssh -X' every time? | 23:50 |
| joshua24 | ncls: googling may help... i cant help @ the moment i have to eat dinner | 23:50 |
| Blaqlight | I would think you could setup an alias for that... | 23:50 |
| kindofabuzz | derrich: like i'm already in ssh server1, let's say i want xterm all of the sudden from server1, instead of loffing out and running -X -I i just type xterm and there it pops up | 23:50 |
| derrich | oh | 23:51 |
| derrich | i don't know if you can do that if you've already started the ssh session without X forwarding | 23:51 |
| albech | anyone else experience that compiz take up more and more memory and at the end crash? | 23:51 |
| kindofabuzz | i think it has to do with what cellofellow said, like set the $DISPLAY in a config | 23:51 |
| derrich | but like Blaqlight said, you can just create an alias to save yourself typing 'ssh -X' every time | 23:51 |
| kindofabuzz | derrich: so yeah i guess i can just start it with the -X -I | 23:52 |
| kindofabuzz | yeah | 23:52 |
| Leo | someone know how to get rid of the help poupups? | 23:52 |
| kindofabuzz | what was the -I? | 23:52 |
| derrich | yeah, if you set $DISPLAY properly you may be able to do it | 23:52 |
| derrich | but me, i'd just log out and log in again with -X | 23:52 |
| derrich | i'm lazy like that | 23:52 |
| mfabiano | hello... i'm trying to install geforce fx 5200 in ubuntu 8.04, but anything work. i've already try to install with envyng the last driver and the 96.xxx series. What i must do to make this thing work? | 23:53 |

| Onerice | Ubuntu Hardy Heron | 23:56 |
| derrich | if /dev/hdb1 is the right device name, and the /media/hdb1 directory exists | 23:56 |
| serkan`c | yao_ziyuan: first try to fix them | 23:56 |
| derrich | then yes, that would do it | 23:56 |
| bastid_raZor | Johnny; create /media/hdb1 then yes | 23:56 |
| Johnny | yea i know | 23:56 |
| Johnny | whats the file type | 23:56 |
| kindofabuzz | yao_ziyuan: sudo apt-get install -f | 23:56 |
| yao_ziyuan | serkan`c: how? | 23:56 |
| demetris | what to perfom to check if my ubuntu are ok ? without any errors/problems. | 23:56 |
| Blaqlight | derrich: nothing wrong with the ultimate in efficiency... one letter aliases | 23:56 |
| serkan`c | already told yao_ziyuan :D | 23:56 |
| derrich | i have 'ls' aliased to 'l' | 23:57 |
| derrich | i rule | 23:57 |
| yao_ziyuan | kindofabuzz: what if there are still unresolved errors after install -f? | 23:57 |
| serkan`c | demetris: if it is ok, then it is ok :D | 23:57 |

| demetris | :P | 23:57 |
| Leo | someone know how to get rid of the help poupups please? | 23:57 |
| Blaqlight | yao_ziyuan: use synaptic then its easier :D | 23:57 |
| derrich | Johnny: if it's asking you for the file type, then either hdb1 isn't a valid partition w/ a filesystem on it, or you don't have support for that filesystem installed | 23:57 |
| serkan`c | demetris: what do you want to do? | 23:57 |
| Blaqlight | ask | Leo | 23:57 |
| Blaqlight | !ask | Leo | 23:57 |
| ubottu | Leo: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 23:57 |
| yao_ziyuan | serkan`c: yes. i just tried a new software source (http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-members-kde4/ubuntu) and it generated many broken packages. | 23:58 |
| krazy-h_ | Please | 23:58 |
| derrich | Johnny: run 'fdisk -l' and make sure hdb1 is the right device | 23:58 |
| demetris | serkan'c, i just wanna be sure that my ubuntu are fine ;D | 23:58 |
| yao_ziyuan | right! | 23:58 |
| serkan`c | yao_ziyuan: so this is the problem | 23:58 |
| yao_ziyuan | synaptic is more friendly | 23:58 |
| theclaw | is there a way to start those 'kde daemons' when starting gnome? (so that starting a kde application doesn't take that long) | 23:58 |
| serkan`c | if there is some dependency problems, packagers must fix it | 23:58 |
| serkan`c | demetris: if there isnt any problem we can think that your ubuntu is fine ;) | 23:59 |
| Leo | so, anyone knows the answer? | 23:59 |
| kindofabuzz | derrich: can i not make an aliases 2 words? | 23:59 |
| Blaqlight | Leo: if we did we'd answer. | 23:59 |
