| linxeh | AndyB: does it say that in the docs? | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| crdlb | filthpig: ok, it's working. If your determiniation of brokenness is that compiz doesn't work, that's because ubuntu has blacklisted all laptops using the open source ati driver | 00:00 |
| AndyB | linxeh: Thats what it says in the docs for debian which is the closest thing i can find. | 00:00 |
| unop | AndyB, i am not sure 'deb' is a valid target to make - especially if the source is from the author directly | 00:00 |
| AndyB | linxeh: trying to compile amsn source :( new to linux | 00:00 |
| linxeh | hang on then | 00:00 |
| filthpig | crdlb, ah. ;) Why Serious performance issues or smth? | 00:00 |
| linxeh | AndyB: I'm getting it now | 00:01 |
| crdlb | filthpig: no, some mobile r300 models are very unstable with compiz, so they just blocked them all | 00:01 |
| filthpig | heh, okay | 00:01 |
| crdlb | filthpig: you can easily override this blacklist; join #compiz-fusion for details | 00:02 |

| DjViper | kibab: it's system specific for linux | 00:05 |
| DjViper | in ff3 for windows it's under where you said | 00:05 |

| kibab | DjViper: hmm.. I don't remember how I did it, but I had no problem doing that with FF2 | 00:06 |

| ArthurArchnix | I'm looking for some advice / help selecting the right email client to use. I'm currently using thunderbird, but it really sucks with messages that have large attachments, often freezes. A second problem I have is that it doesn't actually delete messages. You can open the file and find all your old messages. So, these two issues really are the reason I want to switch. I was wondering about syphleed or maybe evolution... or m | 00:19 |
| Erick|Laptop | is there an audio mixer in ubuntu where i can control my bass, treable and all of that great stuff? | 00:19 |
| Erick|Laptop | ArthurArchnix, i use evolution and it does everything i need it to do | 00:20 |
| abyss_ | ArthurArchnix, i like Evolution very well! That messages are not deleted might be caused by IMAP feature! Try to use POP3 instead | 00:20 |
| Xpistos | Wow I just installed icewm and I really like it | 00:20 |
| zonkers | how do I find out if i'm running 32 or 64 bit ubuntu? | 00:21 |
| ArthurArchnix | abyss_: hmm... good thought, but I use pop exclusively. Thunderbird keeps all its information in one file. If you look in your profile directory, then open the inbox file, and tell it to use text editor to open, you'll be able to read emails from a long time ago, that you thought you had deleted. At least, that's my experience and like I said, a big part of the reason I want to ditch it. | 00:22 |
| ArthurArchnix | But maybe it's just corrupted and I just need to start clean? I don't know.. I've never had anyone confirm that this is a fact of the program and not a problem with my setup | 00:23 |
| Xonk61 | from inside Thunderbird, try compressing your inbox folder... | 00:23 |

| billybigrigger | could be faster | 00:41 |
| glitsj16 | timte: i would if i had any ideas on what might be causing this .. nothinh yet | 00:41 |
| hiptobecubic | hwilde, when i try to set mode ad-hoc i get error "Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) : SET failed on device ath0 ; Invalid argument." | 00:41 |
| anto9us | billybigrigger, you can tweak some of the settings when you run your vncserver, you can kill the current one and retry without having to re-run putty, just leave that sat there | 00:41 |
| timte | glitsj16: you know of a command that takes a uuid and checks wether it's valid? | 00:42 |
| billybigrigger | so that putty connection is an open tunnel? | 00:42 |
| anto9us | billybigrigger, yes | 00:42 |
| billybigrigger | and it will stay open until i close putty? | 00:42 |

| anto9us | billybigrigger, it's also very good for forwarding other services, almost anything in fact, if I have just one port open on a router into a network, ssh is it | 00:44 |
| hwilde | hiptobecubic, you are root? ifconfig ath0 down; ifconfig ath0 up; ifconfig ath0 mode ad-hoc | 00:44 |

| billybigrigger | ok so on my firewall the only open port i need to have is 22? | 00:44 |
| Gnea | nym: don't use ls, use du -h | 00:44 |
| nym | thank you | 00:45 |
| billybigrigger | like open to the rest of the internet, so i can ssh in from anywhere | 00:45 |
| billybigrigger | every other port can be closed on my firewall? | 00:45 |
| anto9us | billybigrigger, yes, you can map any other services over it, unless you want to run an email server, then you'll also need to open smtp (25) | 00:45 |
| hiptobecubic | hwilde, still getting 'invalid argument' | 00:45 |

| c1rcuit | standard linksys | 00:47 |
| Dr_willis | billybigrigger, err... serverside/clientside - is BOTH sides.. :) So you have to tweak it somewhere.. You can set the vncserver to only display a set # of colors - like 16bit depth, or you could run a ver light desktop like jwm. | 00:48 |
| c1rcuit | wireless card | 00:48 |
| billybigrigger | Dr_willis, i think i have depth=16 | 00:48 |
| Dr_willis | billybigrigger, some vncservers have specific compression options and other optiosn that may help also. | 00:48 |
| billybigrigger | Dr_willis, are you familiar with vnc4server? | 00:48 |
| Dr_willis | billybigrigger, when i run vncservers, i tend to use jwm as the desktop they display. On a local lan here. its veryuseable. | 00:49 |
| eagle_02 | Good evening all (at leaste in GMT -4) | 00:49 |

| billybigrigger | so do you have a howto kicking around on using jwm, i have gdm and gnome setup for my vnc | 00:50 |
| c1rcuit | imusing a linksys | 00:50 |
| cwill747 | c1rcuit, yeah i saw, i'm trying to think of what's wrong | 00:50 |
| cwill747 | c1rcuit, did you have to install drivers for it? | 00:50 |
| eagle_02 | I have a really fun story for everyone | 00:50 |
| Dr_willis | billybigrigger, i set up the users .vnc/xstartup to spawn that specific users desktopp when they run vncserver, i do not run vncserver as a 'system service' it does not display gdm for me | 00:50 |
| c1rcuit | no i actually just started with ubuntu | 00:51 |
| c1rcuit | i just plugged it in | 00:51 |
| AAGG | what version of ubuntu will support the atheros wifi chipset ? | 00:51 |
| billybigrigger | ahhh, yeah i have it set to used xinetd with gdm | 00:51 |
| cwill747 | ubotu, tell c1rcuit about wifi | 00:51 |
| roadfish | I'm using dpkg --ignore-depends | 00:51 |
| cwill747 | or not... | 00:51 |
| Dr_willis | billybigrigger, well you proberly dont 'have' to. :) you can always ssh in and run 'vncserver' - There are ways to make that xinted/vnc stuff do differnt things also. | 00:52 |
| eagle_02 | so I jast redid a fresh install of ubuntu ( I previously had 8.4.1 but decided to redo it for partitioning and cleanliness sake) | 00:52 |
| anto9us | billybigrigger, you can set the number of colours and the compression methods and levels | 00:52 |
| Dr_willis | billybigrigger, i find the 'xinetd' spawning - losses one of the best features of vnc. the 'desktop keeps running after you disconect' feature. | 00:52 |
| cwill747 | !tell c1rcuit about wifi | 00:52 |
| ubottu | c1rcuit, please see my private message | 00:52 |
| Tokie240 | Do you have to reconfigure anything if you update Intel Graphic Drivers? Im stuck at 800*600 now after an update. | 00:52 |
| SlimG | Is there a command in Linux that lets me do something like this (made up): virtualmemory --show-only-this-much-mb-memory=512 --command=wine (wine will be tricked into believing that there is only 512MB ram on the system, instead of ex: 8GB as it really is) | 00:53 |
| roadfish | I'm using dpkg -i --ignore-depends=package1 package2 to install an older package2. And package2 works fine. However, when try to install anything else, they fail because package2 has unmet dependency packagee1. How can I get Ubuntu to _really_ ignore this dependency? | 00:54 |
| bluekb | Is there any way to change how loud my maxiumum volume goes? I have an annoying problem with some applications being too quiet despite having my volume everywhere else be about to the max. | 00:54 |

| moose_ | yesterday iwas downloading amazingly 100kb speed | 01:01 |

| juano__ | c1rcuit: how do you connect to internet, DSL | 01:05 |

| cwill747 | c1rcuit, the link i showed you has a list of many wireless cards and in-depth how-to's on how to use them | 01:05 |
| KevinO | c1rcuit, describe your problem, | 01:05 |
| SlimG | Jack_Sparrow: Wine doesn't seem to have that feature, so this isnt really wine-related | 01:05 |

| eagle_02 | Jack_Sparrow, I have actualy reinstalled the whole OS a few times over this last time the most sucsessfull (I got a full afternoon before everything started exploding) then just like before (when I used the old Ubuntu 7.10 CD and upgraded it starting killing apps seemingly for giggles) | 01:07 |
| roxygirl | hey, i just installed some updates but now evolution will not let me send/receive mail! eek! any ideas? | 01:07 |
| SlimG | Jack_Sparrow: nope it's about tricking wine (or any other linux app) into thinking there is less memory on the system than it really is | 01:07 |
| Tokie240 | roxygirl: check your account settings | 01:08 |
| Jack_Sparrow | eagle_02 Please pastebin and post your sources list. HAve you ever tried automatix in the past? | 01:08 |
| eagle_02 | the only thing I can think of that keeps breaking ti is the nvidia driver but I hade 8.4.1 installed with the nvidia driver on the same machine just last week | 01:08 |
| RyanPrior | !automatix | 01:09 |
| ubottu | Automatix is no longer developed or supported by its creators and is not recommended, supported, or needed by Ubuntu. See http://mjg59.livejournal.com/77440.html and « /msg ubottu WorksForMe » | 01:09 |
| ernad | i cant uncheck irda-utils upgrade it is always checked and it wont install also, if i want to install some other package than irda-utils it stuck on irda-utils | 01:09 |
| eagle_02 | I have, and was not impressed | 01:09 |
| daggerx | if i have ubuntu using my whole drive, how do i install windows on it | 01:09 |
| Dr_willis | eagle_02, try just running with the 'nv' driver. not the 'nvidia' driver? | 01:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | RyanPrior I am aware of that fact.. thanks | 01:09 |
| eagle_02 | nv driver hmm... never heard of it | 01:09 |
| Tokie240 | daggerx: Gparted will help you there to make a new partition for windows | 01:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | eagle_02 that could be the reason you are having problems | 01:09 |
| eagle_02 | I will make the machine stop chekcing its ram and do that | 01:09 |
| eagle_02 | where would I find the nv driver? | 01:10 |
| daggerx | ok, is it under add remove? | 01:10 |
| billybigrigger | Dr_willis, whats wrong with leaving the session open? its good i guess if im downloading a file a loose internet connection it still stays open right? | 01:10 |
| roxygirl | Tokie240: they are the same, no changes. i connect to the net for internet browser and downloading, but evolution doesn't let me send/receive...somehow not recognizing connection | 01:10 |
| eagle_02 | hang on "that cold be the reason I am having problems" what is this that you speak of | 01:10 |
| eagle_02 | could* | 01:10 |
| Jack_Sparrow | eagle_02 yes | 01:10 |
| ernad | can any body here try to help me ? | 01:11 |
| KevinO | ernad please do not pm me, just ask your question in here. Thanks | 01:11 |
| eagle_02 | what? | 01:11 |
| eagle_02 | yes? | 01:11 |
| cwill747 | daggerx, you can use sudo apt-get install gparted | 01:11 |
| moose_ | hey people | 01:11 |
| Jack_Sparrow | eagle_02 Please pastebin and post your sources list. HAve you ever tried automatix in the past? | 01:11 |
| moose_ | on deluge | 01:11 |
| moose_ | what would be a best port to go on | 01:11 |
| ernad | i asking,,, but nobody answer here on public | 01:11 |
| Dr_willis | billybigrigger, I leave vncsessions open for weeks/months at a time. but by launching the vncserver with xinetd. if you close the client. that will close the session. My 'ssh in and start vncserver manually' method leaves the session runnign even if you close the client. | 01:11 |
| eagle_02 | what is pastebin? | 01:11 |
| moose_ | i think that my ISP detected torrent trafficing?? | 01:11 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !paste | 01:11 |
| 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) | 01:11 |
| daggerx | thank you | 01:11 |
| Tokie240 | roxygirl: hmm have you tried going back to the old version or perhaps reinstalling then. | 01:11 |
| Dr_willis | moose_, i would not be suprised. | 01:11 |
| ernad | i cant uncheck irda-utils upgrade it is always checked and it wont install also, if i want to install some other package than irda-utils it stuck on irda-utils | 01:11 |
| godzirra | Can anyone tell me whymy wife's wireless network only has WPA2-personal | 01:11 |
| eagle_02 | I have not run automatix on this install | 01:12 |
| godzirra | not wpa-personal or anything else? | 01:12 |
| billybigrigger | Dr_willis, oh, so using xinetd just leaves the session resumable, not open | 01:12 |
| ernad | not update but upgrade | 01:12 |
| Jack_Sparrow | eagle_02 I thought you said it was an upgrade | 01:12 |
| Dr_willis | billybigrigger, not really 'resumeable' it will spawn them as needed. thats not resumung anything at all. | 01:12 |
| roxygirl | tokie240: can i somehow rollback the updates i just did? | 01:12 |
| moose_ | Dr_willis so what should i do? is there any other bit torrect client that has encryption enabled? | 01:12 |
| Dr_willis | billybigrigger, it just makes them easier to launch. | 01:12 |
| Tokie240 | daggerx: Gparted's a livecd http://gparted.sourceforge.net/ grab a copy here | 01:12 |
| Dr_willis | moose_, most of them have encryption I thought. I tend to enable enc. and throttle things down.. Expecially throttle down the uploads. | 01:13 |
| === benzs_s is now known as benzss | ||
| billybigrigger | Dr_willis, well maybe you should write a howto on your method as i would prefer to leave my sessions open while im away at work and whatnot | 01:13 |
| godzirra | Anyone know how I can use wpa-personal for my wireless encryption? For some reason it only lists WPA2-personal. | 01:13 |
| moose_ | u know what i think my internet got down today | 01:13 |
| fallore | does cleartype exist on ubuntu? running gutsy i believe | 01:13 |
| Dr_willis | billybigrigger, my methiod... 'ssh remotemachine' 'vncserver' , run vncclient, connect.... close ssh session... vncsession stays running. | 01:13 |
| daggerx | i installed, where to i go to execute it and start making the changes and stuff | 01:14 |
| Dr_willis | billybigrigger, its how vncserver stuff was 'originally' done. :) basically | 01:14 |
| moose_ | i think they tried to reset my internet service or throttled it so that i cant download anything | 01:14 |
| CRASH69 | juano__: tk8.5, and tcl (it doesnt say anymore), tcl8.4, and tcl8.5 | 01:14 |
| moose_ | wholy shit i think i solved my problem | 01:14 |
| Dr_willis | moose_, a lot can depend on the specifc torrents ive noticed. | 01:14 |
| red | Can someone help me get 3D acceleration working on my i915? When I did 'glxinfo | grep rendering', it said "direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose)". After I set LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose and tried it again, it said the EXACT SAME THING. | 01:15 |
| juano__ | CRASH69: what ever you have, 8.5 or 8.4 must match the amsn installer | 01:15 |
| moose_ | Dr_willis yea im changing my ports | 01:15 |
| ernad | peoples i cant uncheck upgrade irda-utils, i have made upgrade to my system, everything is upgraded, only irda-utils are not because of some problem with installation, i dont care for irda-utils package i just want to remove that package,,, if i try to install any other package i cant because of irda-utils it start to install irda-utils then stuck | 01:15 |
| Tokie240 | roxygirl: http://www.gnome.org/projects/evolution/download.shtml stable release on top 2.22 | 01:15 |

| moose_ | GOD BLESS UBUNTU | 01:16 |
| roxygirl | Toke240: thanks | 01:16 |
| juano__ | CRASH69: for example, if you have tcl 8.5 then you need amsn installer generic for tcl 8.5 | 01:17 |
| CRASH69 | juano__: sorry you lost me, I just did add/remove amsn form the menu, it was working 8 hours ago | 01:17 |
| Tokie240 | daggerx: did you do sudo or did you download the livecd,with apt-get you cant do what you want to do cause Gparted cant do anything while ubuntu is loaded. the livecd you have to boot with then you can chop you're partition since ubuntu isnt loaded yet | 01:17 |
| ernad | and that is it nobody can help me | 01:17 |
| amenado | ernad you can remove with apt-install remove irda-utils | 01:17 |
| Tokie240 | roxygirl:no problem and good luck | 01:18 |
| amenado | !patience | ernad | 01:18 |
| ubottu | ernad: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 01:18 |

| Dr_willis | moose_, i would aboide ati video cards if possible. | 01:20 |
| high-freq | didn't know if any other options | 01:20 |
| moose_ | well both wasy | 01:21 |
| Dr_willis | moose_, i would avoide ati video cards if possible. | 01:21 |
| amenado | !who | 01:21 |
| ubottu | As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :) | 01:21 |
| moose_ | what about NVIDIA?? | 01:21 |
| afallenhope | anyone know how to open a port range in ufw? I use: sudo ufw allow from any port 8000 to any port 8009 but it doesn't seem to work | 01:21 |
| juano__ | CRASH69: well it's worth it cause it has major fixes and probably your problem is related to one of those bugs | 01:21 |
| Mecha25 | moose: I don't know about nvidia, but ATI was very tough to get working with Ubuntu for me. I'd try nvidia, they seem to have less problems | 01:21 |
| juano__ | CRASH69: first remove yur amsn 0.97 through synaptic | 01:21 |
| cappicard | hrmm... i keep getting this on hardy x64: E: The package hal needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it. | 01:21 |
| moose_ | how about INTEL?? | 01:21 |
| Tokie240 | moose_: no | 01:22 |
| juano__ | CRASH69: before installing.. ^^ | 01:22 |
| moose_ | are all INTEL graphic cards chip supported with UBUNTU distros?? | 01:22 |
| Mecha25 | intel graphics cards are not real cards, they'll work almost guaranteed, but they're slower | 01:22 |
| Tokie240 | moose_: yes but they are slower than molasses | 01:22 |
| Mecha25 | or at least I've never had or heard of problems with them | 01:22 |
| moose_ | but compiz fusion and all that other stuff will work rite??? | 01:22 |
| juano__ | CRASH69: use the generic installer | 01:22 |
| Mecha25 | moose: with intel, yes but slow. with ATI: fast but difficult: Nvidia I think is your best bet | 01:22 |
| Tokie240 | moose_: yea it does im actually using a gma950 with compiz but games and photos are slow | 01:23 |
| red | Can someone help me get 3D acceleration working on my i915? When I did 'glxinfo | grep rendering', it said "direct rendering: No (If you want to find out why, try setting LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose)". After I set LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose and tried it again, it said the EXACT SAME THING. | 01:23 |
| moose_ | qll it matters to me now is my UBUNTU and my AWN with compiz fusion working on my new laptopn and not have to worry about this stupid graphics card if they are not compatible or not | 01:23 |
| Mecha25 | then go with Intel I'd say | 01:23 |
| moose_ | THANKS | 01:23 |
| linxeh | moose_: you could bitch at the manufacturers... :) | 01:23 |
| moose_ | hehe | 01:24 |
| CRASH69 | juano__: done removing, generic for 8.5 or 8.4, I see both tk installed | 01:24 |
| Mecha25 | red: i915 is an intel chipset, right? | 01:24 |
| moose_ | should i write a letter to NVIDIA?? | 01:24 |
| Mecha25 | moose: no, ATI | 01:24 |
| red | Mecha25: Yes, it is. | 01:24 |
| juano__ | CRASH69: then download 8.5 | 01:24 |
| Mecha25 | red: did you check if it shows up in Restricted Driver manager? that's odd, intel chipsets are usually fully compatible | 01:24 |
| moose_ | cuz i heard that DELL pre shipps laptops with UBUNTU | 01:24 |
| Tokie240 | moose_: if you arent doing games, or photo editing, 3d go with intel | 01:24 |
| Mecha25 | moose: yes, but only certain models | 01:25 |
| moose_ | no i want to do all of the gaming and 3D desktop cube so i want a goood laptop that will run UBUNTU amazingly | 01:25 |
| usser | moose_, check out system76.com | 01:25 |
| moose_ | to run UBUNTU to its BEST | 01:25 |
| Mecha25 | moose: yes, system76 will get you what you want, guaranteed | 01:25 |
| godzirra | Anyone know the name of the network applet thingie in the corner of ubuntu? | 01:25 |
| usser | moose_, more expensive then dell but they can do beefy laptops | 01:25 |
| godzirra | mine quit working for some reason | 01:26 |
| IndyGunFreak | godzirra: nm-applet | 01:26 |
| daggerx | thank u, just burned it, gonna reboot and check it out...thank u...toki | 01:26 |
| godzirra | ... | 01:26 |
| Mecha25 | godzirra: did you reboot? sometimes when network connectivity glitches, a reboot fixes that | 01:26 |
| moose_ | i heard IBM would be a best choice in laptops | 01:26 |
| godzirra | wtf dont I have nm-applet? | 01:26 |
| moose_ | so im planning on buying a really good IBM that will run my UBUNTU To its max | 01:26 |
| Tokie240 | moose_: it's all a matter of what you're comfortable with | 01:26 |
| red | Mecha25, it's not a restricted driver, and the driver as far as I can tell is installed correctly | 01:27 |
| Mecha25 | godzirra: are you looking in the menus? it's not in there, that's the terminal name | 01:27 |
| godzirra | Mecha25: I know. I did `locate nm-applet` | 01:27 |
| IndyGunFreak | godzirra: you aked for the name of the network applet, that what its called, nm-applet | 01:27 |
| godzirra | its not there anymore | 01:27 |
| godzirra | since I uninstaled wpasupplicant | 01:27 |
| Mecha25 | godzirra: that might not have been the best idea | 01:27 |
| usser | moose_, ibm sold their comp manufacturing business to lenovo | 01:27 |
| moose_ | red, yes that what i've been hearing about NVIDIA that their drivers are restricted and not opn source | 01:27 |
| godzirra | Mecha25: Apparently. | 01:27 |
| godzirra | Mecha25: Hwo do I get the network applet back? | 01:27 |
| moose_ | usser what do you think would be good laptop?? | 01:27 |
| Mecha25 | reinstall nm-applet, use Synaptic | 01:27 |
| godzirra | It hasn't ever been dependent on wpasupplicant on any other system. | 01:27 |
| g0ldie | mecha: both have there quirks.. problems usually arise when new cards are released without drivers or support | 01:27 |
| g0ldie | the older ati and nvidia in my experience never fail | 01:28 |
| moose_ | aside from the compatibility issues with UBUNTU due to restricted drivers | 01:28 |
| bmarley13 | can anyone tell me how to change my icons using gnome? | 01:28 |
| godzirra | Mecha25: I did "Apt-get search nm-applet" and didnt find it. | 01:28 |
| godzirra | minus the capital a | 01:28 |
| Mecha25 | godzirra: open up Synaptic, search for it there | 01:28 |
| moose_ | i was told INTEL was open source | 01:28 |
| moose_ | with their drivers | 01:28 |
| usser | moose_, hps are nice and almost always fully supported, just find one with nvidia graphics which is kinda hard and again system76 | 01:28 |
| godzirra | Mecha25: 0 matches. | 01:28 |
| moose_ | ok | 01:28 |
| moose_ | kewls | 01:28 |
| red | The driver is working ok (I'm not stuck in low graphics mode anymore), just no 3D acceleration. | 01:29 |
| Jack_Sparrow | moose_ We have lots of good info on hardware compatibility.. This is not the best place to get answers on that.. Please try #ubuntu-offtopic | 01:29 |
| Mecha25 | red: huh... that's odd, how old is the computer? | 01:29 |
| brunoso | algen abla spanish cabros | 01:29 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !es | 01:29 |
| ubottu | En la mayoría de canales Ubuntu se comunica en inglés. Para ayuda en Español, por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es o #kubuntu-es. | 01:29 |
| Mecha25 | godzirra: have you made sure your repositories are enabled? like Multiverse and such? | 01:29 |
| godzirra | its network-manager-gnome | 01:30 |
| brunoso | habla en spañol po sapo ctmre hijo de puta sin vida los culiaos | 01:30 |
| Tokie240 | uh what;s the command to configure Xorg and Intel graphics | 01:30 |
| red | Mecha25, it's a Dell Inspiron B130. And I had 3D acceleration working before, before I tried using adifferent driver to fix the 915resolution hibernate problem. | 01:30 |
| moose_ | usser im sorry but i have never heard of any of those laptops on that website | 01:30 |
| brunoso | spanish | 01:30 |
| moose_ | they look really good | 01:30 |
| moose_ | tempting to buy | 01:30 |

| bmarley13 | could someone please help me change my icon theme in gnome? | 01:31 |
| Mecha25 | sorry red, I got a phone call, I hope someone can help you out | 01:32 |
| seth_slade | Anyoine!!! compiz + X31000 : does it work? | 01:32 |
| Mecha25 | !patience | 01:32 |
| ubottu | The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 01:32 |
| moose_ | usser. thanks i see the graphic chipset that they are using in those laptops | 01:32 |
| brunoso | ustedes entender la palabra amariconao | 01:32 |
| Tokie240 | bmarley: got your icon theme on desktop?, just drag it to the apperance window, located at System>Preferences>Apperance | 01:32 |
| seth_slade | whoops, meant x3100, not x31000 | 01:32 |
| smguy | how compatible is ubuntu with zunes? | 01:33 |
| CRASH69 | juano__: thx, fixed | 01:33 |
| moose_ | usser i wil try to find brand name laptop with that similiar graphics card | 01:33 |
| dennda | seth_slade: yes it works | 01:33 |
| usser | moose_, good luck | 01:33 |
| juano__ | CRASH69: cool :) | 01:33 |
| dennda | seth_slade: (not completely yet, though, but yes. it basically works with most features) | 01:33 |
| dennda | seth_slade: assuming you mean the intel chip | 01:33 |
| Tokie240 | bmarley: ahh sorry that was for installing icon theme, get to the apperance window, again (system,preferences,apperance) and click on the icon tab | 01:34 |
| juano__ | CRASH69: watch out for some apps, before installing check latest versions in google... some might be worth not installing from synaptic | 01:34 |
| dennda | seth_slade: The stock drivers ubuntu ships are just fine | 01:34 |
| bmarley13 | Tokie240: what should i actually drag? | 01:34 |
| bmarley13 | the .theme file? | 01:34 |
| ninix | anyone has a xorg.conf with a dual screen using the "radeon" driver setup.. i've got a ati 9200 mobility (or rv250 ? i don't understand that) and i think "ati" driver don't support my card, and fglrx neither. anyone can steer me in the right way ? | 01:34 |
| Tokie240 | bmarley: yea, but it should be .tar.gz to work, pick up an icon theme from gnome-look.org | 01:34 |
| Jack_Sparrow | ninix 9200 does not support fglrx, only aiglx... see xinerama or twinview | 01:35 |
| bmarley13 | Tokie240: thanks, drag the whole tarball there? | 01:35 |
| crdlb | ninix: just to clarify, the "ati" driver is just a wrapper which lods "radeon" | 01:35 |
| Tokie240 | bmarley: yea | 01:36 |
| helpy | i can't mount my cdrom. even ubuntu forms is quiet about this problem. it sounds like a big problem. Error 'invalid mount option when trying to mount volume 'UDF volume' | 01:36 |
| helpy | anyone knows about this ? | 01:36 |
| Tokie240 | bmarley: it'll ask you to apply the theme | 01:36 |

| Tokie240 | Jack_Sparrow: aww man, so how can i get hardy to detect my intel gma 950 and monitor now? | 01:41 |
| linxeh | helpy: maybe try mounting manually - mount -t udf /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom | 01:41 |
| helpy | http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/34235/ | 01:41 |
| helpy | i did permission denied its read only | 01:41 |
| burdel-untu | is any one who had problems with instaling ubuntu on quad core / abit mathebord / nvidia geforce 9800 gt ? | 01:41 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Tokie240 You can enter a monitor section to your xorg manually, if the one in gutsy worked you can use it | 01:41 |
| linxeh | helpy: try as root then | 01:41 |
| helpy | i did | 01:42 |
| === freqk is now known as freqk|away | ||

| burdel-untu | ok i try this way ! | 01:43 |
| arthur_ | helpy : and are you having that problem with all cd's or just that one | 01:43 |

| Jack_Sparrow | Tokie240 I doubt it will be that easy | 01:45 |
| helpy | wait a minute | 01:46 |
| helpy | i inserted another cd | 01:46 |
| helpy | and its working | 01:46 |
| arthur_ | the cdrom drive works | 01:46 |
| arthur_ | maybe the cd is bad. what files are you trying to read on the cd that wont work? | 01:46 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Tokie240 Here is my generic monitor section.. http://paste.ubuntu.com/34236/ | 01:47 |
| helpy | but it worked earlier | 01:47 |
| Intelli | Hey, how do I seed a torrent file with the Gnome client that I created (I already did the btmakemetafile step)? | 01:47 |
| helpy | its an MS 2007 cd | 01:47 |
| arthur_ | trying to do what with it? | 01:47 |

| arthur_ | ms office in windows or linux? | 01:48 |
| helpy | linux | 01:48 |
| Flynsarmy | Has anyone else noticed a bug where if a gksudo darkens the screen, once it's closed the screen doesn't repaint properly? | 01:48 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Tokie240 try setting up a monitor section first. Sometimes that is all that is needed | 01:48 |
| crdlb | ninix: you also said fglrx, which is that driver :) | 01:48 |

| daggerx | toki, i got the cd, burned it, went to the setup, now whats the best tool to backup my ubuntu - before i use gparted? | 01:50 |
| Jack_Sparrow | daggerx If you create a seperate /home, reinstalls are a breeze, ad a seperate for /var then they get even easier | 01:52 |
| Tokie240 | daggerx: i'd just back up my home directory man, that's where most of your important stuff is...but you might wanna ask these guys for better advice | 01:52 |
| alpinestr | hi is there any application that would allow me to change desk-1-4 so that all of em have diff backgrounds | 01:52 |

| Tokie240 | daggerx: Windows will have a conflict with ubuntu on the dual boot as it will overwrite ubuntu's grub | 02:01 |
| lsy520 | 大家好 | 02:01 |
| glitsj16 | hi newbe1: what's your question on xubuntu ? | 02:01 |
| bj1 | if my box is a webserver, will the service be running when the box is on, but not logged in yet? | 02:01 |
| Dr_willis_ | Tensei, i was thinking it had no password by default so was locked down. You may want to check the ubuntu forums or wiki pages.. Been ages since ive messed with mysql | 02:01 |
| genii | !info hal | 02:02 |
| newbe1 | be back soon supper | 02:02 |
| arthur_ | bj1 : yes | 02:02 |
| juano__ | bj1: you are able to do that yes | 02:02 |
| * genii prods ubottu | 02:02 | |
| Jack_Sparrow | meoblast001 it is quite common for people to use oddball repos like you have then have issues with programs from our repos that are known to work fine to not work on the suspect machine | 02:02 |
| daggerx | ok so i wont bother, but it was good to get that gparted though, thank you | 02:03 |
| Storrgie | Sometimes when I boot into ubuntu, with Gnome as my xwindow manager, my desktop will be missing. I have to then log out and log back in to get my desktop back | 02:03 |
| meoblast001 | Jack_Sparrow: let me check something real quick | 02:03 |
| kindofabuzz | Storrgie: sometimes mine does that, just wait a few more seonds and mine pops up | 02:03 |
| Storrgie | kindofabuzz: really? i never bothered to wait beyong am inute | 02:03 |
| meoblast001 | Jack_Sparrow: i just disabled all third party repos | 02:03 |
| meoblast001 | now im gonna reload and reinstall | 02:04 |
| Storrgie | kindofabuzz: i have a quad core with 8gb of ram... i dont like waiting | 02:04 |
| kindofabuzz | Storrgie: well if it takes a minute then yeah something is probably wrong. unless you got a slow computer | 02:04 |
| kindofabuzz | stochastik: oh | 02:04 |
| Jack_Sparrow | meoblast001 doing that after you have used them will not change the depency issues you created by using them | 02:04 |
| kindofabuzz | oops | 02:04 |
| meoblast001 | Jack_Sparrow: i strongly believe i was not using them | 02:04 |
| dafgsdyfa | with 26gb, how much space should I allocate to /usr and how much to /var ? | 02:04 |
| meoblast001 | im just doing this to make sure | 02:04 |
| kindofabuzz | 8g of RAM? jeeez you running a video renderer or something? | 02:04 |
| raphael_ | iai | 02:05 |
| bazhang | meoblast001, dapper and intrepid? who knows what damage has been done | 02:05 |
| meoblast001 | i got errors with intrepid | 02:05 |
| Jack_Sparrow | meoblast001 You never used interpid repos, or manually upgraded wine or .. | 02:05 |
| bazhang | !br | raphael_ | 02:05 |
| meoblast001 | the dapper one was a minor repo | 02:05 |
| meoblast001 | for specific apps | 02:05 |
| bazhang | meoblast001, does not matter. | 02:05 |
| raphael_ | sim brasil | 02:05 |
| meoblast001 | and i installed elisa WAY before using those | 02:05 |
| Jack_Sparrow | meoblast001 Your system is truely messed up.. Sorry, but I cant help | 02:06 |
| bazhang | raphael_, /join #ubuntu-br | 02:06 |
| meoblast001 | =/ | 02:06 |
| Tokie240 | ow...man i remeber being repo crazy, not the greatest to have everything bleeding, man i remeber i couldnt even boot right anymore | 02:06 |
| alpinestr | how do i start gnome text to speech | 02:06 |
| engstad | I have ~10 machines that I need to update... is there any way to make them all install the same packages? | 02:06 |
| Jack_Sparrow | !clone | 02:07 |
| raskolnikov1866 | how to lunch an application like terminal or firefox directly in full screen mode? | 02:07 |
| Dr_willis_ | engstad, you may want to set up one box (if they are all networked) to be the apt cacher/proxy for the other box's | 02:07 |
| Jack_Sparrow | engstad We have a way to clone packages on machines | 02:07 |
| engstad | That's cool, I could have one behave as master. | 02:07 |
| alpinestr | how do i start gnome text to speech once its installed | 02:08 |
| engstad | Jack_Sparrow: A cmd line like: apt clone master-machine? | 02:08 |
| Firstmate | Hi, Im having issues with the wireless setup on Ubuntu 8.04 | 02:08 |
| Tokie240 | Jack_Sparrow: well i tried the generic monitor and no luck :( | 02:08 |
| Jack_Sparrow | engstad nope.. bot is down.. let me see if I can find it | 02:08 |
| Tanubis | firstmate what's the issue? | 02:09 |
| Firstmate | I entered all the correct information (correct WEP, ESSID..etc) triple checked | 02:09 |
| Firstmate | but it keeps | 02:09 |
| Dr_willis_ | engstad, cloning and 'shareing the same downloads from a single proxy.cache machine ' are 2 differnt things. :) | 02:09 |
| Tokie240 | Jack_Sparrow: still stuck on 800*600 | 02:09 |
| Firstmate | bringing up, Authencication needed | 02:09 |
| Firstmate | and asks me for WEP key again. | 02:09 |
| Jack_Sparrow | engstad !clone... To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade » - | 02:09 |
| Firstmate | I just went to my routers page, and the information is correct. | 02:09 |
| Tanubis | firstmate are you using ifconfig or the gui tool? | 02:09 |
| engstad | Jack: Awesome! I'll make a script for that. :-) Thanks! | 02:09 |
| Firstmate | ? | 02:09 |
| Firstmate | Im on my routed site, 192.168.0.1 | 02:10 |
| Firstmate | router* | 02:10 |
| Jack_Sparrow | engstad take care.. se also aptoncd for copying repos | 02:10 |
| alpinestr | anyone knows how to use gnome text to speech | 02:10 |
| Tanubis | firstmate you're able to connect to your router through the wireless? | 02:10 |
| Firstmate | Yes | 02:10 |
| engstad | Jack: I will, though with the network speed, I don't think that'll be an issue. | 02:10 |
| Firstmate | But Using a different laptop, I am able to | 02:10 |
| Tokie240 | alpinestr: did you check under System>Prefs>Assisted Technologies | 02:10 |
| Dr_willis_ | engstad, that will make each machine redownload the exact same packages.. so you will be using 10x the bandwith - unless you use that trick with the apt cache type machine. | 02:11 |
| Firstmate | It seems to be only from my linux computer. | 02:11 |
| Tanubis | firstmate are you using wep or wap? | 02:11 |
| Firstmate | wep 128 bit | 02:11 |
| Tanubis | firstmate and are you trying to configure it through the gui, or are you doing it through the command line? | 02:11 |
| Firstmate | Authentication Type is set to both, open and shared | 02:11 |
| alpinestr | its not there | 02:11 |
| Firstmate | gui | 02:12 |
| Firstmate | I'm not familiar with the command line | 02:12 |
| gouki | Has anyone ever installed Lurker (email) on 8.04? | 02:12 |
| xkpe | hi | 02:12 |
| Tanubis | firstmate I've had a lot of problems with the base gui that comes with ubuntu when I'm connecting to encrypted pages, try apt-get install wicd and then run /opt/wicd/gui.py | 02:12 |
| Tanubis | * networks, not pages | 02:12 |
| Firstmate | Huh | 02:13 |
| Firstmate | "try apt-get install wicd and then run /opt/wicd/gui.py" I don't understand that, lol. | 02:13 |
| Tanubis | firstmate ok, you need to open a terminal | 02:13 |
| Firstmate | My laptop is on with Linux | 02:13 |
| xkpe | the top bar of my gnome-panel just disappeared, i tryed to relog but it wont show, how can i get it back? | 02:13 |
| Tanubis | firstmate is your linux machine able to connect via cable to the internet? | 02:14 |
| cappicard | there we go. | 02:14 |
| lakitu | how do login as owner? i need to change file permissions in etc to modify fstab to enable my fileswap | 02:14 |
| Tokie240 | alpinestr: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TextToSpeech | 02:14 |
| cappicard | i had start-stop-deamon being faked out... | 02:14 |
| Firstmate | I do not have the cables necessary for the connection from a cable. | 02:14 |
| Tanubis | firstmate hmm | 02:14 |
| Firstmate | And the ones connected in my main comp, go through the wall. | 02:14 |
| Firstmate | Its apt-get install wicd a command line? | 02:14 |
| lakitu | how do i get owner/superuser status? | 02:15 |
| cwill747 | lakitu: you can log in as root by setting a root password, though it is not advised | 02:15 |
| Tanubis | firstmate yeah, that's another program to configure wireless devices. I find it works a lot better for encrypted networks than the one that comes with ubuntu's base install | 02:15 |
| bazhang | lakitu, dont do that | 02:15 |
| lakitu | cwill747: how do i modify fstab then? | 02:15 |
| Firstmate | Do I have to download it somewhere? | 02:15 |
| bazhang | lakitu, just use sudo when you need to | 02:15 |
| Tanubis | firstmate yes, that's what apt-get install wicd does | 02:15 |
| Neogi | hello | 02:15 |
| lakitu | bazhang: i did "sude gedit etc/fstab" & it won't let me save | 02:15 |
| cwill747 | lakitu, i agree with bazhang, you shouldn't really need to do that | 02:15 |
| lakitu | sudO | 02:15 |
| alpinestr | thx | 02:16 |
| Tanubis | firstmate if you type that into the command line terminal, it finds it and sets it up on your machine | 02:16 |
| servant74 | Are there known GL problems when using 8.04? ... I'm having 'small horiz. lines' when I run glxgears ... and another GL based application... | 02:16 |
| Firstmate | Where is the command line terminal? | 02:16 |
| lakitu | let me try again to confirm, i guess | 02:16 |
| Tokie240 | alpinestr: no problem | 02:16 |
| Firstmate | Sytem? Places? Applications? | 02:16 |
| Tanubis | firstmate type alt-f2 and then type in gnome-terminal and hit enter | 02:16 |
| Tanubis | firstmate it should launch | 02:16 |
| cwill747 | Firstmate, Applications > Accessories > Terminal | 02:16 |
| DozedOnLinux | ccessories/Terminal | 02:16 |
| Neogi | I dunno about GL problems but the ATI drivers are certainly crap and conflict with the restricted drivers in Ubuntu majorly | 02:16 |
| === adrianq_ is now known as donaqoffice | ||
| Firstmate | then I type apt-get install wicd | 02:17 |
| Tanubis | firstmate probably sudo apt-get install wicd | 02:17 |
| cwill747 | you usually have to sudo apt-get install wicd | 02:17 |
| bazhang | Firstmate, dont bother with wep; wpa2 is the way to go but first you should open up (no encryption) to test, then set via command line--you will need a cable though later on if you dont have proper drivers to install them (easiest way) | 02:17 |
| LetsGo67 | Why is my recordMyDesktop video laggy? I have 3GB of RAM! | 02:17 |
| Tokie240 | Firstmate: use sudo apt-get install | 02:17 |
| Firstmate | I noticed the extension was .py, do I have to have the python to use it? | 02:17 |
| servant74 | neogi: mine is Intel. .. an old Compaq iPaq desktop .. runs good otherwise | 02:17 |
| LinuxIST | how do you resolve flash menu below a page. You click the menu and can't see it because it is behind graphics | 02:17 |
| Tanubis | firstmate yes. but if you type that, it will figure out that it needs python and whatever other things it wants and install them too | 02:17 |
| Tokie240 | Firstmate any dependences needed will be downloaded with apt-het | 02:17 |
| Firstmate | I have python kit since I am learning it. | 02:18 |
| servant74 | No screamer, but does well otherwise. | 02:18 |
| Tokie240 | get* | 02:18 |
| Firstmate | I have an error | 02:18 |
| lakitu | i typed "sudo gedit /etc/fstab" & i got this message: sudo: /etc/sudoers is mode 0640, should be 0440 | 02:18 |
| Firstmate | E: Couldn't find package wicd | 02:18 |
| ninix | crdlb: is xrandr shoud work for setup a dual screen ? | 02:18 |
| Firstmate | In the terminal I typed: sudo apt-get install wicd | 02:18 |
| Tanubis | firstmate try sudo apt-get update first | 02:18 |
| Tokie240 | Firstmate: do you have universe and multiverse repos enabled? | 02:18 |
| === LSD|Ninj2 is now known as LSD|Ninja | ||
| Firstmate | Im not that advanced with computers to understand that XD | 02:19 |
| Tanubis | ok | 02:19 |
| bazhang | Firstmate, you need a net connection for that, also wicd is not in the repos iirc | 02:19 |
| bazhang | !info wicd | 02:19 |
| Tanubis | !info wicd | 02:19 |
| Firstmate | I till type sudo apt-get update | 02:19 |
| Firstmate | !info wicd | 02:19 |
| LetsGo67 | Can someone help me please? | 02:19 |
| bazhang | oh right no ubottu | 02:19 |
| crdlb | ninix: XRandR currently only supports a merged screen, which may not work because of the 2048 hardware limit | 02:19 |
| Tanubis | it's not in base repositories? | 02:19 |
| Tokie240 | LetsGo67 what's up | 02:19 |
| bazhang | Tanubis, no | 02:19 |
| crdlb | ninix: you can try it though; it's possible that it can work (with no glx support), but I can't remember | 02:19 |
| Firstmate | tbh, I am still running ubuntu from the CD, because I have to backup files, could this cause problems? | 02:20 |
| Neogi | anyone done any playing around with satellite software for linux? | 02:20 |
| ninix | kk | 02:20 |
| digistyl3 | hi, anyone know what's the command that let's me know what package is a file from? | 02:20 |
| Firstmate | And after typing: sudo apt-get update | 02:20 |
| Firstmate | I get many "Failed to fetch" errors | 02:20 |
| Firstmate | Including a W:You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems | 02:20 |
| Tanubis | firstmate that's because you need to be online for all of this | 02:20 |
| LetsGo67 | Tokie240: gtk-recordMyDesktop recordings lag, despite 3 gigabytes of RAM. | 02:20 |
| bazhang | Firstmate, you have a cable connection to this box? otherwise all internet updates and the like will fail | 02:20 |
| mattmik | #abiword | 02:21 |
| Firstmate | The problem IS connecting to the internet | 02:21 |
| Firstmate | lol | 02:21 |
| bazhang | Firstmate, get a cable | 02:21 |
| meoblast001 | how come when i play Big Buck Bunny in any video player, the player dies? | 02:21 |
| Firstmate | If | 02:21 |
| Firstmate | I disable my WEP key | 02:21 |
| Neogi | digistyl3, try http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/ubuntu/using-ubuntu-what-package-did-this-file-come-from/ | 02:21 |
| Firstmate | and then do those updates | 02:21 |
| Firstmate | Will that have a better chance | 02:21 |
| Tanubis | firstmate that works too | 02:21 |
| Neogi | Google is your friend :) | 02:21 |
| Fezzler | I'm going to try and network my Ubuntu PC to a printer shared off my iMac. Do I want the LPD or CUPS approach? | 02:21 |
| bazhang | Firstmate, get the cable first; no updates until then-->also, what chipset is this card | 02:21 |
| Tanubis | firstmate if you turn off your wep, and that makes your wireless work, that'll let you get everything you need | 02:21 |
| Neogi | I typed: command what package is a file from ubuntu | 02:22 |
| lakitu | what does mode 0640/0440 mean? | 02:22 |
| lakitu | did i eff something up changing permissions? | 02:22 |
| digistyl3 | Neogi: thanks | 02:22 |
| LetsGo67 | Tokie240? | 02:23 |
| amenado | lakitu yes its permission related | 02:23 |
| kindofabuzz | how would i make a program auto "Always visible on workspace"? | 02:23 |
| Neogi | look up "man chmod" to find out what it means | 02:23 |
| lakitu | amenado: i think i screwed up some permissions, i tried changing fstab or /etc/ to read-write... | 02:23 |
| Tokie240 | LetsGo67: http://dev.honewatson.com/easy-ubuntu-screencasting-feisty-gutsy-gibbon-usb-headset/ you got everything configured right? | 02:23 |
| lakitu | do i need to change that back? | 02:23 |
| lakitu | sudo is giving me errors, now | 02:23 |
| juano__ | lakitu: in chmod ? | 02:24 |
| Neogi | Fezzler: use CUPS, much nicer than LPD which is ancient these days | 02:24 |
| Neogi | (it was great years ago) | 02:24 |
| lakitu | juano__: in the file browser | 02:24 |
| lakitu | nautilus or whatever | 02:24 |
| Dr_willis | lakitu, fstab has nothing to do with sudo. its possible you really messed somthingup by trying that weirdness. :) | 02:24 |
| kindofabuzz | lol | 02:24 |
| kindofabuzz | how would i make a program auto "Always visible on workspace"? | 02:24 |
| amenado | lakitu since you are too new to even understand file permissions, i suggest you re-install your ubuntu | 02:24 |
| genii | lakitu: A good explanation of permissions and what the numbers mean for them can be found here: http://www.linuxcommand.org/lts0070.php | 02:24 |
| kindofabuzz | but that's how you learn | 02:24 |
| Fezzler | Neogi: Will this be installed via the GNOME interface or require Terminal commands | 02:25 |
| Dr_willis | kindofabuzz, not really seen a way to do that with the default gnome tools.. Theres some otehr tools that might let ya force it to work. But i forget the name of the one i was thinking of. | 02:25 |
| meoblast001 | all my programs crash when i try to play 720p theora video | 02:25 |
| LetsGo67 | Thanks Tokie240! | 02:25 |
| Neogi | CUPs has a web interface you can get to by typing the box name and a port, 631 I think... hold on I'll check | 02:25 |
| juano__ | lakitu: 4 = read , 2 = write , 1 = execute, 6 = rw, 4 = r, 0 = none | 02:25 |
| lakitu | amenado: i guess i did it because https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq told me to modify fstab, & when i went to do that, it said i needed permissions. so i set about changing permissions | 02:26 |
| kindofabuzz | Dr_willis: yeah i've been looking at various options in gnome but no luck. So you've seen a way to do it though with a prog? | 02:26 |
| Neogi | yeah, it's port 631 | 02:26 |
| Dr_willis | kindofabuzz, devilspie is a tool that lets you do all sorts of tricks. | 02:26 |
| kindofabuzz | Dr_willis: basically want terminal with that option | 02:26 |
| kindofabuzz | Dr_willis: ok thanks, will check that out | 02:26 |
| Dr_willis | kindofabuzz, other desktops/window managetrs can rember window settings better then gnome does. | 02:27 |
| Neogi | so if your box is called localhost, just do http://localhost:631/ or the name of the box itself (or IP if you're on another machine and want to access it)... just make sure your firewall allows incoming requests on that port though or it will never connect | 02:27 |
| LetsGo67 | Tokie240, can I send you a theora video? | 02:27 |
| kindofabuzz | Dr_willis: oh yeah i could see if compiz has that option! probably does | 02:27 |
| amenado | lakitu-> i do not know what else you have modified within /etc therefore I suggested the re-install, harder for you to recover all the correct permission within /etc | 02:27 |
| juano__ | lakitu: mode 0640 is translated like: rw for the owner, r for group and nothing for world | 02:27 |
| Tokie240 | LetsGo67: how big? | 02:28 |
| lakitu | amenado: i changed one thing, it should be doable to change that back, no? | 02:28 |
| amenado | lakitu which file did you modify? | 02:28 |
| lakitu | juano__: ok | 02:28 |
| LetsGo67 | Tokie240: 15,7 MB. | 02:28 |
| lakitu | amenado: either fstab or /etc/, i can't remember | 02:28 |
| lakitu | i think etc | 02:28 |
| Firstmate | When typing sudo apt-get install wicd, it says Couldn't find package wicd | 02:28 |
| juano__ | lakitu: what command did you execute.. chmod..? | 02:28 |
| Tokie240 | LetsGo67: sure | 02:28 |
| LetsGo67 | Thanks. | 02:28 |
| Neogi | lakitu: here's a link to a tutorial on file permissions... http://www.comptechdoc.org/os/linux/usersguide/linux_ugfilesp.html | 02:28 |
| lakitu | juano__: no command, i did it via the gui | 02:29 |
| meoblast001 | what is wrong with my comptuer..... now its mounting my SD slot as read only... why? i didnt modify my fstab.... it never did this before | 02:29 |
| juano__ | lakitu: ok, you set 0640 to fstab ? | 02:29 |
| amenado | lakitu if it was /etc its more dangerous.. | 02:29 |
| LetsGo67 | Tokie240:voila | 02:29 |
| lakitu | amenado: argh. is it undoable? | 02:29 |
| lakitu | juano__: unfortunately i think /etc/ | 02:29 |
| LetsGo67 | Tokie240 got it? | 02:29 |
| LinuxIST | how do you resolve flash menu below a page. You click the menu and can't see it because it is behind graphics | 02:30 |
| lakitu | thanks Neogi | 02:30 |
| Neogi | Firstmate: add this repository, that should help "deb http://apt.wicd.net gutsy extras" | 02:30 |
| amenado | lakitu yes, but you have to know the ins/out of this directory..i suggest you re-install | 02:30 |
| Neogi | no worries :) | 02:30 |
| Tokie240 | LetsGo67: my connection isnt the fastest... | 02:30 |

| amenado | lakitu may i suggest some tutorials on how to use linux, walking you throught the steps is cumbersome and waste of our time, so please take the iniative to do a self-stufy/tutorial | 02:32 |
| sisto | I've installed a new nice theme but the window borders are too thin (one pixel wide). It makes it too hard to change window size. Is there a way to make them thicker? I'm using gnome. | 02:32 |
| kindofabuzz | lakitu: see, things happen for a reason =) | 02:33 |
| LetsGo67 | Tokie240 bittorrent? | 02:33 |
| amenado | lakitu you can use your browser to look for linux tutorials on google | 02:33 |
| juano__ | lakitu: do ls / -l | 02:33 |
| Tokie240 | LetsGo67: sure | 02:33 |
| juano__ | lakitu: and paste /etc permissions | 02:33 |
| * zcat[1] ponders how lakitu could have accidentally changed permission on /etc/ or fstab without using sudo.. | 02:34 | |
| lakitu | amenado: ok. i think the SwapFaq should perhaps have a link or something to how to modify the file, since it is requisite to creating a swap file | 02:34 |
| Tokie240 | LetsGo67: Could be me man, my comp's kind of misconfigured right now | 02:35 |
| lakitu | juano__: ok | 02:35 |
| genii | zcat[1]: gksu nautilus comes to mind | 02:35 |
| sisto | I've installed a new nice theme but the window borders are too thin (one pixel wide). It makes it too hard to change window size. Is there a way to make them thicker? I'm using gnome. | 02:35 |
| sisto | anyone? | 02:35 |
| LetsGo67 | Tokie240: how come? | 02:35 |
| zcat[1] | hmm | 02:35 |
| LetsGo67 | Tokie240: oh, you mean for IRC file transfers? | 02:35 |
| Neogi | what kind of swap are you trying to create? | 02:35 |
| Neogi | that was for lakitu | 02:36 |
| Dr_willis | kindofabuzz, check http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202249&highlight=terminal+desktop for a terminal stuck to all desktops howto. :) | 02:36 |
| lakitu | juano__: drwxr-xr-x | 02:36 |
| kindofabuzz | Dr_willis: yeah Compiz had an option for it, seems to slow things down a little though when switching desktops | 02:36 |
| Tokie240 | Letsgo67: it's the whole thing really, i originally came here to fix my 800*600 res, the whole thing is just fritzing right now after an intel driver update | 02:36 |
| juano__ | lakitu: root root ? | 02:36 |
| zcat[1] | oh well.. I got my linux box to join a windows domain just now. Of course I first had to set up windows server in virtualbox so I had a domain to join...;) | 02:36 |
| lakitu | juano__: root root | 02:36 |
| juano__ | lakitu: its fine then | 02:36 |
| lakitu | 120, before root | 02:37 |
| Dr_willis | kindofabuzz, i just use one of those "hit F12 to have a terminal scroll down" programs. :) | 02:37 |
| cycom | anyone know how to change a launcher so that it toggles compiz redirect on launch? | 02:37 |
| mattmik | My update manager says I need to update Firefox (even though I'm pretty sure it's up to date), but when I try to, I get an error describing a failed fetch attempt that 404'd. | 02:37 |
| mattmik | Anyone know the problem? | 02:37 |
| zcat[1] | lakitu: permissions (drw-rw----) not owner? | 02:37 |
| lakitu | juano__: i assume it's from my permissions change - but what do i need to do, if not a reinstall? | 02:37 |
| LetsGo67 | Tokie240: pity. | 02:37 |
| LetsGo67 | I have pity for you. | 02:38 |
| juano__ | lakitu: i still don't understand your problem well | 02:38 |
| kindofabuzz | Dr_willis: yeah, i don't really like those for some reason, i'd rather just have it sticky across my desktops. been thinking of running one of those applet/screenlets for terminal and just make my whole desktop terminal. lol | 02:38 |
| juano__ | lakitu: what is it you modified | 02:38 |
| lakitu | juano__: ok | 02:38 |
| Tokie240 | LetsGo67: kinda bad going from 1440*900 to ol school 800 | 02:38 |
| Aval0n | i've seen a lot of videos of people making ubuntu look just like osx, does anyone know if there is a community for that sort of thing? | 02:38 |
| lakitu | juano__: i think /etc's permissions | 02:38 |
| juano__ | lakitu: well they are fineç | 02:38 |
| Dr_willis | kindofabuzz, check comment # 175 on that thread. they mention the compiz way. | 02:39 |
| juano__ | lakitu: i don't think you did, plus you need to be root to do that | 02:39 |
| kindofabuzz | Dr_willis: yeah i figured it out | 02:39 |
| zcat[1] | lakitu: we want the first bit that starts with 'd' -- mine is drwxr-xr-x 169 root root 7.8K 2008-08-05 12:19 etc | 02:39 |
| lakitu | zenkk: i'm sorry, i don't understand. the permissions were drwxr-xr-x for /etc | 02:39 |
| HoNgOuRu | I want to install ZSNES on ubuntu 8.04 amd64, what do I have to do??? pleasse help !! | 02:39 |
| LetsGo67 | Tokie240: why do I have so much lag, so many problems, so many Opera crashes, even with 3GB of RAM? | 02:39 |
| mattmik | HoNgOuRu: Did you check Synaptic? | 02:39 |
| Tensei | When I install mysql 5 it says it should ask me to set up a password, but it doesn't, and it is preset with one.... how do i fix this? | 02:39 |
| zcat[1] | lakitu: good.. that's normal | 02:39 |
| juano__ | HoNgOuRu: sudo apt-get install zsnes | 02:39 |
| HoNgOuRu | yes | 02:39 |
| LetsGo67 | Tokie240: isn't 3GB close to the best? | 02:39 |
| HoNgOuRu | its not there | 02:40 |
| Dr_willis | HoNgOuRu, last i checked znes does NOT support 64bit. Ive seen people ask this befor. i think the package comments were not clear on that limitation. | 02:40 |
| HoNgOuRu | just says that a package makes refrerences to it | 02:40 |
| Tokie240 | LetsGo67: are you using 64 bit, if so that's why, it's really not working to good as of yet | 02:40 |
| HoNgOuRu | oh! | 02:40 |
| Dr_willis | HoNgOuRu, so i would suggest using some other snes emulator. | 02:40 |
| lakitu | juano__: the error i get is this: sudo: /etc/sudoers is mode 0640, should be 0440 | 02:40 |
| HoNgOuRu | I tried snes9x but no luck with joysticks | 02:40 |
| kahrytan | Does Indexer index / directories as well? | 02:40 |
| LetsGo67 | LetsGo67: Intel Celeron inside. | 02:41 |
| zcat[1] | lakitu: Excellent; that will stop you messing up anything else.. ;) | 02:41 |
| kindofabuzz | HoNgOuRu: you got to config your gamepad/jooysticks | 02:41 |
| kindofabuzz | in zsnes | 02:41 |
| HoNgOuRu | yes | 02:41 |
| juano__ | ok, then you should do sudo chmod 0440 /etc/sudoers | 02:41 |
| lakitu | zcat[1]: ha ha | 02:41 |
| mattmik | HoNgOuRu: You know that you can play a huge amount of games online at Virtual Nes through Java, right? You don't even need to download an emulator. | 02:41 |
| lakitu | ok, thanks juano__ | 02:41 |
| Tensei | ugh,.. i was hoping someone knew.. | 02:41 |
| juano__ | lakitu: ok, then you should do sudo chmod 0440 /etc/sudoers | 02:41 |
| HoNgOuRu | its installed and working at /dev/input/js0 | 02:41 |
| zcat[1] | juano__: how can he; sudo won't run if sudoers has the wrong permissions.. | 02:41 |
| juano__ | zcat[1]: lmao | 02:42 |
| LetsGo67 | Tokie240: good luck with your screen. | 02:42 |
| HoNgOuRu | Dr_willis help | 02:42 |
| Tokie240 | LetsGo67: yea same to you with you're lag issues | 02:42 |
| HoNgOuRu | heehe | 02:42 |
| LetsGo67 | Tokie240: thanks, good night, ttyl. | 02:42 |
| homerj | I've searched google, and the forums about this, not much about it. Open up Openoffice Writer, and the titlebar goes bonkers when Compiz is loaded. | 02:43 |
| homerj | there a fix for this? | 02:43 |
| lakitu | yeah, it won't let me, juano__ | 02:43 |
| juano__ | zcat[1]: right duh me | 02:43 |
| Neogi | lakita: here ya go, this should help, it's how to create swap files in Linux of any flavour, should work http://www.linux.com/feature/113956 | 02:43 |
| juano__ | lakitu: you need to login as root | 02:43 |
| lakitu | juano__: how | 02:43 |
| HoNgOuRu | did someone fix the joystick issue with snes9x ?? | 02:43 |
| juano__ | lakitu: or try "su" in a terminal | 02:44 |
| Jordan_U | lakitu, juano__ It is not reccomended to log in as root, you almost certainly do NOT need to | 02:44 |
| juano__ | lakitu: plain su and then root password | 02:44 |
| HoNgOuRu | I made a sym link from /dev/js0 to /dev/input/js0 but no luck | 02:44 |
| sashimi | oh why the hell do I have to get a nautilus bug T____T | 02:44 |
| zcat[1] | juano__: probably best to establish that that's the only file with the wrong permissions.. if everything in /etc/ is now 644, a reinstall might be the easiest thing | 02:44 |
| juano__ | Jordan_U: in this case yes, he f**d up /etc/suduoers | 02:44 |
| Neogi | lakitu: worst case, enable root... I'm an oldschool linux user so even though I used Ubuntu, root is always the first thing I enable | 02:44 |
| sashimi | they STILL haven't patched it to use the damn umasks | 02:44 |
| sashimi | :'( | 02:44 |
| kahrytan | Does Indexer index / directories as well? | 02:44 |
| Jordan_U | juano__, Using su will not help, su to root is disabled by default | 02:44 |
| juano__ | Jordan_U: right, im in slackware sorry... cant help it | 02:45 |
| duton | boot in single user mode? | 02:45 |
| Jordan_U | lakitu, juano__ You can boot into "recovery mode" ( single user mode ) from the grub prompt | 02:45 |
| Neogi | I don't really see the difference in sudoing and root access... it's really the same thing and it's annoying to have to type "sudo apt-get" all the time instead of just apt-get | 02:45 |
| zcat[1] | Neogi: and how do you enable root when you're already broken sudo? that's the tricky part... | 02:45 |
| lakitu | ok.. then what | 02:45 |
| duton | if that is possible | 02:45 |
| juano__ | Neogi: your right, but thats ubuntu's philosophy | 02:45 |
| Neogi | go into single user mode | 02:45 |
| Aquahallic | evenin' folks | 02:45 |
| Kaspersky_ | Evening. | 02:45 |
| Jordan_U | lakcaj, Do you have a backup of your /etc/sudoers ? | 02:45 |
| Aquahallic | with NFS can only one machine mount an exported dir???? | 02:46 |
| zcat[1] | Neogi: anyhow you don't need to enable root for that.. sudo -i will give you a rootshell | 02:46 |
| lakitu | Jordan_U: no, but it's a fresh install. nothing much to lose | 02:46 |
| Neogi | at grub, whilst most people don't tend to password their boot loader, the easiest way to hack a linux box is put a "1" at the end of the boot loader command and you've got root straight away | 02:46 |
| marshall | can someone help me get my sound working please? | 02:46 |
| zachb | Hey, I came in here before a few days ago where I had this problem: it'd work fine for about 28-30 hours, then I wouldn't be able to launch any new programs. In order to fix this, I'd have to do a hard reboot, not just X. Well, I uninstalled a program that I think was the cause, it's been good for over 4 days, and it happened again. | 02:46 |
| Dr_willis | Aquahallic, more then one machine can access a export.. Or should be able to... | 02:46 |
| kahrytan | What!? No one can answer me? | 02:46 |
| Jordan_U | lakcaj, Did sudo ever work? How fresh an install is it? | 02:46 |
| lakitu | Jordan_U: yes. 1 hour | 02:46 |
| zcat[1] | Neogi: yep.. or the rescue boot option.. or change 'ro quiet spalsh' to 'rw init=/bin/bash' | 02:47 |
| Jordan_U | lakcaj, What have you done since it worked? | 02:47 |
| Kaspersky_ | Ubuntu never booted for me. | 02:47 |
| Neogi | it will force the machine to boot into single user mode even if someone's taken the other options out of the menu (which I always do as I want a clean boot loader) | 02:47 |
| zcat[1] | Neogi: you'll find getting root on my machines quite a lot harder... | 02:48 |
| Aquahallic | well I have a dir exported on a machine that sits in my basement... on another I have in fstab to mount that exported dir.. then when I go to second machine to mount it. .I get "mount: special device...... does not exist" | 02:48 |
| lakitu | Jordan_U: i tried setting up networking, but needed to modify fstab | 02:48 |
| Neogi | as it should be zcat! :) | 02:48 |
| duton | oh dear.. | 02:48 |
| lakitu | but before i finished that, i attempted to add a swapfile | 02:48 |
| kahrytan | Does Tracker index / directories as well? | 02:48 |
| duton | fstab guis are avail | 02:48 |
| lakitu | Jordan_U: which also required i modify fstab | 02:48 |
| zcat[1] | you'd need a can of compressed air and a emmory-dumper on a USB drive to do it ;) | 02:49 |
| duton | able | 02:49 |
| Spaztastic | Could someone help me configure my xorg.conf so that I can get 1440x900 resolution back. Somehow it managed to get messed up I think it might have been an update or something. | 02:49 |
| Jordan_U | lakitu, You should not have to modify your fstab for networking | 02:49 |
| lakitu | Jordan_U: neither walkthrough explained how to modify Fstab/file permissions | 02:49 |
| Neogi | try this lakitu: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo | 02:49 |
| dolo | any one here know how to use usplash | 02:49 |
| Dr_willis | Aquahallic, its possible you dont have the proper nfs server/client files/services installed/running on box #2. | 02:49 |
| marshall | could someone please help me get my sound working? | 02:50 |
| juano__ | anyone know where i can find a rdp client CD iso to boot into windows terminal server environment??? tried thinstation... sucks, tried anywhereTS.. not good also... is there anything else? maybe some good iso from any distro like DSL | 02:50 |
| Neogi | chmod 0440 /etc/sudoers, tried that? | 02:50 |
| Neogi | If you are trying to fix the error where it says sudo is mode _____, should be 0440, then you'll want to type | 02:50 |
| juano__ | Neogi: he tried but he needs permissions for that (has to be root) | 02:50 |
| Aquahallic | Dr_willis I have nfs-common and portmap | 02:51 |
| zcat[1] | juano__: isn't terminal services client on the ubuntu live CD? | 02:51 |
| Neogi | it says to do it from single user mode, hence root | 02:51 |

| tzanger | good evening; I'm trying to get dictionary support in OpenOffice to work for me (nothing fancy, just us english) -- I have the english language pack installed, and my kate/konqueror/etc text input boxes all have spell checking, just not OpenOffice | 02:51 |
| lakitu | Jordan_U: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountWindowsSharesPermanently | 02:51 |
| tzanger | can anyone tell me where I might start looking? | 02:51 |
| dolo | usplash ? anyone? | 02:51 |
| lakitu | "Add a line at the bottom of your /etc/fstab file that specifies:" | 02:51 |
| Dr_willis | Aquahallic, i would double check the nfs ubuntu wiki page. I imagine you are missing somthing simple. | 02:51 |
| Kaspersky_ | zacat[1]: Yes it is. | 02:51 |
| Kaspersky_ | zcat[1]: It's located in applications under internet. | 02:51 |
| Aquahallic | yeah.. lemme run through that real quick | 02:51 |
| lakitu | Jordan_U: i think it should be all point & click, anyway. that stuff | 02:52 |
| juano__ | zcat[1]: i want a direct into rdp session boot | 02:52 |
| zcat[1] | Kaspersky_: well, that answers juano__'s question I think. | 02:52 |
| tzanger | myspell-en-us is installed, aspell is installed, I don't get it | 02:52 |
| Aquahallic | I wonder... on the box that does mount the dir.... could I have something in that fstab line that's locking the exported dir? | 02:52 |
| juano__ | zcat[1]: nope, not what im looking for | 02:52 |
| zcat[1] | juano__: don't know of a CD to do that... | 02:52 |
| AAGG | how do i uninstall ubuntu? | 02:52 |
| dihymo | is there a deb of flock 2.0 for amd64? | 02:52 |
| Jordan_U | AAGG, Do you have a dual boot setup or just Ubuntu installed on your computer? | 02:53 |
| dihymo | and does anyone have firefox 3 or iceweasel 3 running on amd64 | 02:53 |
| zcat[1] | juano__: you can probably remaster something yourself.. I'd start with puppy and hack it in cos it's very small and lets you put whatever you set up back onto a CD quite easily | 02:53 |
| tzanger | aha | 02:53 |
| AAGG | just ubuntu | 02:54 |
| tzanger | english-canada does not have a dictionary. english-us does. | 02:54 |
| zcat[1] | dihymo: firefox 3.0.1 on amd64 here | 02:54 |
| juano__ | zcat[1]: your right.. im checking out DSL too.. it seems someone has done this before with DSL | 02:54 |
| juano__ | zcat[1]: thanks | 02:54 |
| Jordan_U | AAGG, Then you can just install the OS of your choice over ubuntu ( be sure to back up any files you have in Ubuntu to another drive first ) | 02:54 |
| lakitu | well... opinions - should i just reinstall? or is there 'a save' for this? | 02:55 |
| * zcat[1] was thinking 'sudo aptitude remove ubuntu-base' ought to work ;) | 02:55 | |
| MeVsTheVoices | Is there any additional settings needed in vent setup in order to get ventrilo through wine, through pulseaudio sound working? Hardy | 02:56 |
| Jordan_U | lakitu, There is almost certainly a 'save' for this, but if you have'nt done anything you don't care to loose then I would just re-install and be sure to back up important files before editing them in the future | 02:56 |
| dolo | !usplash | 02:56 |
| dolo | anyone here use usplash? | 02:57 |
| lakitu | Jordan_U: wait... maybe i did back up fstab.. - but wait again. that won't help me, i suppose either =/ hm | 02:57 |
| zcat[1] | MeVsTheVoices: give up and use mumble instead? | 02:57 |
| zachb | heh, sorry, there was a related problem. Did anyone say anything to me? | 02:57 |
| MeVsTheVoices | CAn mumble connect to vent servers? | 02:57 |
| zcat[1] | no... | 02:58 |
| MeVsTheVoices | Well, that's probably why | 02:58 |
| zcat[1] | but there's a mumble client for 'doze and osx so no reason your friends can't switch too.. | 02:58 |
| Flynsarmy | Is there a way to stop openoffice adding a \n to the end of every copy/paste i make? | 02:58 |
| lakitu | k Jordan_U. sounds reasonable | 02:58 |
| kindofabuzz | they probably could, just that Vent won't allow the connections =) | 02:58 |
| * meoblast001 is away: meoaway | 02:58 | |
| Jordan_U | lakcaj, Why wouldn't it help you? If editing the file caused the problem then restoring the file will fix it | 02:58 |
| MeVsTheVoices | True but the ingoing sound works, so I see no reason why the outgoing cannot be fixeed | 02:59 |
| lakitu | i would include a link to file permission changing in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountWindowsSharesPermanently & perhaps https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFAQ | 02:59 |
| AAGG | when i put XP into the drive it wont boot, is like there no option of boot from disk before ubuntu opens | 02:59 |

| benplaut | I haven't really used linux since about a year ago... how solid is NTFS support nowadays? Am I going to be OK putting my big external 500gb in ntfs instead of ext2 (fairly well supported in windows)? | 03:05 |
| IndyGunFreak | benplaut: i've had no probs w/ ntfs, but maybe fat32 would be better. | 03:06 |
| zcat[1] | newuser_: use the alternative disk, choose encrypted LVM, go with the defaults for everything else.. and for security use a really strong passphrase and !!don't forget it!! | 03:06 |
| crimsun | benplaut: it would be more advisable to use ext3 on that drive. You can read ext3 in Windows via FUSE. | 03:06 |

| zcat[1] | the ubuntu alternative install disk (or the DVD) makes installing an encrypted filesystem really easy. I don't think the normal desktop/GUI installer can do it. Although I might be wrong? | 03:08 |

| crimsun | arthurmaciel: please pastebin the output from `apt-cache policy libgtk2.0-0' | 03:08 |
| IndyGunFreak | benplaut: i don't know why you'd put fuse on windows to read ext2, when Ubuntu will read fat32 or ntfs w/o issue. | 03:09 |
| kindofabuzz | zcat[1]: hmmm yeah i may have a static assinged to it with the router and it's hostname | 03:09 |
| minimec | benplaut: I guess that ntfs support is ok now, as wubi even uses ntfs as Ubuntu filesystem.. | 03:09 |
| benplaut | ok | 03:09 |
| benplaut | well, I'll keep using ext2 until I'm done upgrading (changing Arch + XP to Ubuntu + Vista) and then see what I can do | 03:10 |
| newuser_ | is it possible to have an external hdd with different OS and use everything from there? I want to have real important data on my hdd, and basic stuff on my laptop, and be able to boot a secure partition on an external hdd. Somethiing like a persistent usb pendrive | 03:10 |
| zcat[1] | does wubi use ntfs directly or ext3-as-an-image-file on NTFS? | 03:10 |
| crimsun | bmarley13: more specifically? | 03:10 |
| kindofabuzz | newuser_: yes, just connect the hard drive and ubuntu should auto mount that drive. viewable through nautilus | 03:11 |
| genii | zcat[1]: The second one | 03:11 |
| kindofabuzz | cd .. | 03:11 |
| zcat[1] | newuser_: anything is possible. Not all things are easy. | 03:11 |
| kindofabuzz | ooops | 03:11 |
| IndyGunFreak | zcat[1]: i think it uses an ext3 image | 03:11 |
| zcat[1] | newuser_: It's not too hard to set up a USB drive as an encrypted volume.. ubuntu will ask for a password when you plug it in. Windows will go WTF? and offer to format it for you. | 03:12 |

| arthurmaciel | crimsun: wasn't there a pastebin program for ubuntu? | 03:12 |
| crimsun | arthurmaciel: pastebinit | 03:13 |
| zcat[1] | newuser_: Also you can set up a USB drive as a bootable Ubuntu install. I assume you can make it an excrypted bootable ubuntu install about as easily. | 03:13 |
| zcat[1] | *encrypted | 03:13 |
| schroedinbug | arthurmaciel, wgetpaste is what I use - not on my Ubuntu installs though | 03:13 |

| newuser_ | why most of the ubuntu help pages are encrypted? | 03:45 |
| histo | lisa_: there are tons use applications > add/remove and search | 03:45 |
| matthias_N | lisa_: what are you looking for ??? | 03:45 |
| histo | !best | lisa_ | 03:45 |
| ubot3 | lisa_: 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. | 03:45 |

| lisa_ | matthias_N: I had a browswer before, forgot what its called | 03:45 |
| Flannel | bluetide: Move /home to a separate partition | 03:45 |
| histo | bluetide: put /home on its own partition | 03:45 |
| komputes | how can I remove a lot of unneeded international fonts? does anyone know the font package names which are safe to remove? | 03:45 |
| teethdood | bluetide: just reinstall it on top. It will not wipe your home | 03:45 |
| Mecha25 | bluetide: you can add your /home directory as a separate partition during the install, I'm not sure how to do it when it's already there | 03:46 |
| lisa_ | histo: I didnt ask the "best", im trying to remember one I used to use | 03:46 |
| histo | !home | bluetide | 03:46 |
| ubot3 | bluetide: Your home folder is where all of your personal files are usually kept. For mounting your home folder on a separate partition, please see: http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome | 03:46 |
| lisa_ | whats a ubuntu web browser that is in repos? | 03:46 |
| histo | lisa_: well can you search | 03:46 |
| Flannel | bluetide: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome | 03:46 |
| histo | lisa_: on your own rather than asking herer | 03:46 |
| lisa_ | histo: why are you so rude? | 03:46 |
| teethdood | I've reinstalled many times. It wipes everything else but /home | 03:47 |
| lisa_ | histo: why are you in here if you not willing to help and instead so rude? | 03:47 |
| xnevermore | lisa_: was it epiphany? | 03:47 |
| Kattman | Lisa: Seamonkey is good | 03:47 |
| lisa_ | xnevermore: BINGO!!!!!!!!!!!!! thanks :) | 03:47 |
| Mecha25 | Lisa: firefox, lynx, others I think. no offense, but you really can just search in Add/Remove programs, or Synaptic | 03:47 |
| xnevermore | lisa_: np | 03:47 |
| lisa_ | xnevermore: thank you, i been spending all morning trying to remember that lol :0 hugs to ya | 03:47 |
| Pici | lisa_: the package name is epiphany-browser, the 'epiphany' package is some unrelated game | 03:48 |
| bluetide | Can anyone vouch for what teethdood said? | 03:48 |
| newuser_ | what would be a recommended size on a partition that will have the ubuntu filesystem? | 03:48 |
| histo | lisa_: Because this channel is extremely busy and you can do the search on your own | 03:48 |
| histo | lisa_: With a lot less work I might add | 03:48 |
| Mecha25 | bluetide: I can't, but the separate /home partition will work, I can guarantee that | 03:48 |
| Mecha25 | better safe than sorry, it could be a fluke | 03:48 |
| Flannel | bluetide: No. That's wrong. | 03:48 |
| Pici | histo: Be nice, being helpful is what this channel is for. Not for telling people to go search on their own. | 03:48 |
| histo | OMFG | 03:49 |
| histo | I give | 03:49 |
| lisa_ | xnevermore: its really strange, firefox and opera etc doesnt load my banks login page properly, it flashes on and off. But epiphany works perfect accesing it. And I reinstalled ubuntu and I forgiten the name until you reminded me :) | 03:49 |
| teethdood | bluetide: your milage may vary, but it worked for me. Back up your /home, then try it | 03:49 |
| Mecha25 | lisa: are you using compiz? | 03:49 |
| lisa_ | Pici: ahh thanks for telling me, i thgink i just installed the game lol | 03:49 |

It is working although it prints very close to the left side of the page, as if there is no margin set, when i look in the printer dialog it does have a margin set for all sides. any idea why that could be? and is it possible to print the back side of the page so that if i flip the page over it isnt up side down? | 03:51 |
| DozedOnLinux | information concerning (wireless every now and then fails, and with "noapic irqpoll" wireless consistant)> SIOCSIFFLAG is there a cure for irq/apic error related issues ? happened after i updated multiple packages(currently installed/upgradeable) in the update catagory of SPM | 03:51 |
| Mecha25 | Nillerz: what's the specific problem? where does it go wrong? | 03:51 |
| RudyValencia | Hi. I acquired a LaserJet 5L printer used. How do I set up my Ubuntu Linux server to run as a print server for it? | 03:51 |
| debCarlos | Nillerz: Already installed the drivers? | 03:51 |
| lisa_ | xnevermore: i rang my bank and told them that firefox and opera makes my login page flash on and off. they are confused why. But epiphany-browser works perfect, so im lucky I can use that :) | 03:51 |
| DozedOnLinux | any information concerning SIOCSIFFLAG is welcome, thank you | 03:52 |
| Nillerz | The drivers are installed, I'm using a USB reciever, a wg111v2 to be exact by Netgear | 03:52 |
| Mecha25 | Nillerz: can your computer tell the network exists? | 03:52 |
| derenrich | RudyValencia: You have it working locally? You want to use it over samba? | 03:52 |
| Nillerz | Mecha: No, it cannot | 03:52 |
| RudyValencia | derenrich: I don't have it working at all | 03:52 |
| xnevermore | lisa_: that's kind of weird, especially since Epiphany uses the same rendering engine as Firefox to display pages | 03:52 |
| Nillerz | though this is weird because it also has no problem other times, like right now | 03:52 |
| derenrich | I see | 03:52 |
| RudyValencia | I want it to work for both Linux and Windows. | 03:53 |
| derenrich | RudyValencia: Do you have CUPS installed | 03:53 |
| RudyValencia | I dont know | 03:53 |
| derenrich | RudyValencia: You'll want to use samba then | 03:53 |
| Mecha25 | Nillerz: do the drivers involve NDISWrapper? | 03:53 |
| histo | DozedOnLinux: what type of card and what drivers are you using? | 03:53 |
| RudyValencia | I have Samba installed | 03:53 |
| derenrich | RudyValencia: https://help.ubuntu.com/6.06/ubuntu/serverguide/C/cups.html | 03:53 |
| Neogi | NDISWrapper sux :) | 03:53 |
| Nillerz | Mecha25: Yes, I use ndiswrapper | 03:53 |
| Neogi | it has it's uses though | 03:53 |
| lisa_ | xnevermore: yeah i know, the tech at my bank cant work out why. but firefox and opera work great on other pages, its just that one. but epiphany-browser works great, and it doesnt flash on and off. no idea :P | 03:53 |
| RudyValencia | derenrich: CUPS is already installed. | 03:54 |

| Mecha25 | hooo boy.... good luck man, I found a tutorial for mine, it worked, God knows how. | 03:54 |
| lisa_ | xnevermore: so thank goodness for epiphany-browser :) otherwise I could not access my banks webpage | 03:54 |
| Neogi | used to have to use it on most wireless cards before they developed it enough to support it natively in linux | 03:54 |

| kindofabuzz | for you free culture artists: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuFreeCultureShowcase sorry OT =) | 03:54 |
| derenrich | RudyValencia: do you have gnome running or are you doing this all from command line? | 03:55 |
| Nillerz | so any ideas on the wifi thing? | 03:55 |
| histo | DozedOnLinux: hrm... The only thing you could really try is blacklisting the rt61pci module and trying a different driver perhaps. | 03:55 |
| RudyValencia | derenrich: I can switch to GNOME | 03:55 |
| DozedOnLinux | histo: worked fine till the package updates, now i get thos flag errors when ifup | 03:55 |

| histo | DozedOnLinux: based on yoru problems I'm assuing there is a bug filed. | 03:55 |
| histo | DozedOnLinux: well what updates were installed then? | 03:55 |
| Mecha25 | Nillerz: google your wireless card model # and "ndiswrapper tutorial". you might get lucky | 03:55 |
| derenrich | RudyValencia: I don't know how to setup printers from the command line, but using the gnome printer setup cups wizard is easy | 03:55 |
| Uplink | can anyone help me with compiling something? here is the error i get http://paste.ubuntu.com/34266/ | 03:56 |
| DozedOnLinux | histo: ok i know how to do that. i have temporarily disabled sound/usb appended grub line with noapic irqpoll,. and seems to work fine | 03:56 |
| Nillerz | mecha25: I already have. I'm currently using the wifi, but it will stop working in 5minutes or so. Setting up the wifi is no problem, keeping it running is sort of hit or miss | 03:56 |
| DozedOnLinux | histo: in section (upgradeable) | 03:56 |
| lisa_ | xnevermore: how do I refresh my menu so epiphany-browser shows up in menu? | 03:56 |
| Mecha25 | Nillerz: that's odd... how long does it go down for? | 03:57 |
| histo | DozedOnLinux: well try sudo cat /var/log/apt/term.log will show you what was recently installed | 03:57 |
| DozedOnLinux | histo: i run very little from "out-of-box" state, only what is neededd | 03:57 |
| DozedOnLinux | histo: ok will do | 03:57 |
| Nillerz | It ranges between 5 minutes and 30 minutes on average | 03:57 |
| dahitokiri | i need some help setting up networking between two linux computers connected by a cat6 crossover cable. can anyone point me in the right direction? | 03:57 |
| Mecha25 | dahitokiri: using a crossover cable is similar to using a lan, you probably want either FTP or Samba sharing tutorials. | 03:57 |
| kindofabuzz | is it possible to Xforward a dir on my server into nautilus on the client? or would it be easier to just make that dir nfs? | 03:58 |

| bluetide | Can anyone help me switch over to the newer Intel video driver? I keep getting dumped into low graphics mode. | 04:02 |
| MrVampy | so i'd be better to delete the parition and reinstall both? | 04:02 |
| Mecha25 | Nillerz: very odd... that looks like a problem with the router. keep in mind I'm no network guru though. | 04:02 |
| Blaqlight | bluetide: there is a brand new intel driver that just came out today, use update to get it. | 04:02 |
| MrVampy | or just reinstall xp then reinstall grub | 04:03 |
| Nillerz | I think I need a test... but to do that I'd need to find another network, and the nearest one has to be at least 30 miles away... | 04:03 |

| MrVampy | does ubuntu support individual dual monitors.. or will it just mirror the desktop | 04:08 |
| Nillerz | Another unrelated problem: Try as I might I just can't get my screen resolution to the desired 2048x1536 which my monitor has as its native res. I could do it in XP no problem, nowhere close in Fluxbuntu | 04:08 |
| Mecha25 | Guest11008, like what? | 04:08 |
| Guest11008 | now my /var/www and my dpkg and my /var/lib/apt folders are gone | 04:09 |
| ty5479 | I'm doint a check for defects test right now. | 04:09 |
| sx66|eee | I have an error 12 at boot | 04:09 |
| Mecha25 | MrVampy, yes, but depending on the card, it could be a difficult thing to get working | 04:09 |
| Blaqlight | ty5479: yeah thats the best thing | 04:09 |
| MrVampy | Mecah : ATI radeon x1300 pro v. card | 04:09 |
| Mecha25 | Guest11008: is a reinstall an option? | 04:09 |
| Guest11008 | if I can keep the info | 04:09 |
| Guest11008 | i can't lose the info | 04:09 |
| Mecha25 | MrVampy: yeah, it'll do dual monitors, but I'm on an ATI xPress 1150, and it took me 3 solid weeks to get dual screens working. it is possible though | 04:10 |
| Mecha25 | Guest11008: you have a live CD, yeah? | 04:10 |
| Guest11008 | yes | 04:10 |
| Guest11008 | downloading it right now | 04:10 |
| MrVampy | Mecha : would prolly take me long as i'm still a newbie in linux.. and ubuntu.. | 04:10 |
| EFG | How come I can't configue XMMS? | 04:10 |
| MrVampy | mecha do you have any reference site.. i could use for that. | 04:11 |
| Pixeltime | MrVampy: It works here, on a Sony netbook (8" screen) and externally on a 23" at the same time | 04:11 |
| Mecha25 | Guest11008: boot from the liveCD, backup your stuff, reinstall, put it back. I (personally) don't trust in-place upgrades. but that's just me, if you want to fix it without reinstalling, I'm not sure how, sorry. | 04:11 |
| Guest11008 | the fix for my problem is supposed to be reboot and remove the locales | 04:11 |
| Guest11008 | but i cant even run dpkg --configure -a | 04:11 |
| Guest11008 | to run a fix for the failed upgrade | 04:11 |
| Guest11008 | it is a known bug that gutsy -> hardy freezes on generating the locales | 04:11 |
| nathan__ | what is the difference between duplexNoTumble and duplexTumble? | 04:12 |
| MrVampy | would it be easy to do if i was in ubuntu.. i'm tryin to fix winblows right now. | 04:12 |
| Mecha25 | MrVampy: I can give you a dozen different links that all say they work, and all work for some people, but to be perfectly honest, to this day I still don't know how I got it working. I can give you my xorg.conf for reference, but that's about all I can do. Oh, and you'll need (or at least I did), Catalyst Control Center, and the Restricted Driver | 04:12 |
| ty5479 | Is there any way to find out exactly what device is SDB? I'm getting the error while booting of a live CD. Safe to assume its the Optical Drive? | 04:12 |
| Pixeltime | MrVampy: it was not easy to configure for me, but I just did a Wipe install and the default works well here | 04:13 |
| EFG | I get checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables | 04:13 |
| EFG | whenever i ./configure XMMS, I would apt-get, but its not there. | 04:13 |
| Guest11008 | name | 04:13 |
| Mecha25 | Guest11008: if dpkg --configure -a doesn't work, in my expereince there's not much you can do. I had a hard reboot (power glitch) in the middle of a standard update (not even full distro) and I had to reinstall, there was nothing I could do. Good luck | 04:13 |
| chuy_max | ty5479, sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda | 04:13 |
| MrVampy | hmm.. | 04:13 |
| Guest11008 | how do I change my name? | 04:13 |
| Blaqlight | ty5479: run dh -f from command line. | 04:13 |
| gcarrillo | surprisingly (or maybe not) i got a macbook recently and prefer ubuntu to mac os x | 04:14 |
| MrVampy | Mecha.. i may have to get the CCC and Restricted Driver from you while i'm in ubuntu.. so i can use my ati card to it fullest in linux. | 04:14 |
| Pixeltime | MrVampy: But I am using a very, very wierd configuration with pretty much NO graphics chip (Intel onboard) | 04:14 |
| bastid_raZor | i am attempting to get the i2c modules to run for use of monitoring temps .. do i need to add them to xorg.conf? | 04:14 |
| ty5479 | blaqligh, what does that do? | 04:14 |
| Mecha25 | MrVampy: the main reason it took so long is that you have to use Catalyst Control Center to get it working... but it's proprietary, and frankly a piece of junk. | 04:14 |
| Blaqlight | ty5479: sorry wrong command | 04:15 |
| stu | lp | 04:15 |
| stu | 02310+ | 04:15 |
| stu | 60501 | 04:15 |
| Mecha25 | MrVampy: the trick is linking 2 monitor entries into one "screen" entry, and that into one "Device" entry in your xorg.conf | 04:15 |
| Blaqlight | ty5479: df -h | 04:15 |
| Blaqlight | it shows whats mounted and to what. | 04:15 |
| MrVampy | Mecha : would you say i'm better to just leave well enuf alone lol | 04:15 |
| ty5479 | okay cool. Thanks | 04:16 |
| bastid_raZor | Blaqlight; ty5479 you may be looking for sudo fdisk -l (that is a lowercase L) | 04:16 |
| histo | DozedOnLinux: reading | 04:16 |
| Mecha25 | MrVampy: if you're willing to spend 3 weeks at it like I did (and I did this when I was brand-new to linux too), it'll be worth it. but if that's too much effort, I'd skip it. it depends on you really, like most of linux. You get out what you put in, performance for effort. | 04:16 |
| Nillerz | EFG? In my #ubuntu? | 04:16 |
| EFG | Nillerz: Just doin' what I do best. | 04:17 |
| Nillerz | Do what you do best, EFG! | 04:17 |
| EFG | Already am Nillerz. | 04:17 |
| Blaqlight | bastid_raZor: that too. | 04:17 |
| DozedOnLinux | histo: i must have the original error logged, let me find it. but like i said. it seems to work fine now with noapic irqpoll. i can deal, just looking for hinters on irq/apic. i also have this log>http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/34269/ | 04:17 |
| MrVampy | Mecha : so its all bout gettin the CCC and restrictive drivers to do it.. and almost tricky it? | 04:17 |
| EFG | Even apt-get fails me. | 04:17 |
| iplaythisgame | im trying to resize my root partition. i have vista, then osx86 on a second partition in front of my root. ive booted into ubu 8.04 livecd to use gparted and it lets me do whatever i want to the partitions, except resize accross that initial 40Gb 40Gb separation.

| === De[X]tone is now known as dextone | ||
| Mecha25 | MrVampy: for me it was, none of the other solutions I tried worked, and the one I currently have requires resetting the screeen setup every time I boot when not using dual monitors. but then, I'm the atypical case I suppose | 04:18 |
| Blaqlight | !xmms | EFG | 04:18 |
| ubot3 | EFG: xmms is no longer being developed, see http://bugs.debian.org/461309 for more details. Consider using audacious instead. | 04:18 |

| histo | DozedOnLinux: Are you using a firewall? | 04:19 |
| Nillerz | XMMS is an audio player, EFG. | 04:19 |
| Mecha25 | evo: wired or wireless? | 04:19 |
| Blaqlight | err xmms2 | 04:19 |
| histo | DozedOnLinux: ifnot my guess would be the iproute package that updated. | 04:19 |
| evo | wired | 04:19 |
| DozedOnLinux | histo: only the built in one, in which is blank, as i have not configured it, i did check its status though | 04:19 |
| Nillerz | sudo apt-get install xmms would probably do it | 04:19 |
| blarg | its crazy oss is still around i remember using that for redhat 4.* when i couldnt figure out the drivers for my sound card... | 04:19 |
| kindofabuzz | !NFS > kindofabuzz | 04:20 |
| Mecha25 | ok, then it should be kinda easy. you know how to hook up your computer to the router, right? | 04:20 |
| histo | DozedOnLinux: I would roll back the iproute package | 04:20 |
| evo | ive got 1 nic. ubuntu says i have eth1 and eth0 | 04:20 |
| Blaqlight | !xmms > Nillerz | 04:20 |
| histo | DozedOnLinux: you should have the old version of iproute in /var/apt/cache/archives | 04:20 |
| DozedOnLinux | histo: yes i see that. i wondered about that. is there a way to flush my routing info ? | 04:20 |
| bastid_raZor | blarg; if you know how to torrent use transmission that is natively installed on gnome or in kde use ktorrent | 04:20 |
| misc-- | is there a document that explains how to make your own ubuntu packages (well actually I'm after a way to sign them... I'm not sure how to sign a package) | 04:20 |
| DozedOnLinux | histo: oh great, that is worth looking at, thanks | 04:20 |
| blarg | bastid_raZor: :> thanx.. | 04:20 |
| band4life | hi! i am wondering if there is an admin. who can tell me if I am banned. | 04:20 |

| Housefly7k | blarg: now I only use torrents | 04:21 |
| Guest92397 | WTH would the gutsy->hardy upgrade delete my files? | 04:21 |

| histo | DozedOnLinux: thats were the old debs should be. | 04:21 |
| Blaqlight | evo: eth0 is usually loopback (127.0.0.1) eth1 is your NIC. | 04:21 |

| EFG | i wont | 04:22 |
| EFG | lol | 04:22 |
| evo | i dont have mac filtering enabled on my router Mecha25 | 04:22 |
| Blaqlight | histo: I think it only does public commands... | 04:22 |
| Housefly7k | iplaythisgame: maybe take a screenshot and upload it for people to better understand your partitions | 04:22 |
| histo | DozedOnLinux: yeah I would try the previous version of iproute | 04:22 |
| evo | Blaqlight: is saying eth0 should be local | 04:22 |
| evo | and eth1 should be nic | 04:22 |
| EFG | Anything like it then? that makes source compiling GUI-like? | 04:23 |
| Blaqlight | evo usually it is, not shouldn't be | 04:23 |
| Mecha25 | evo: huh... and your IP is listed with the router and it's the same IP as the eth0 or eth1 you're using? | 04:23 |
| Mecha25 | EFG: I've heard of Kompile, for KDE | 04:23 |
| EFG | Yeah | 04:23 |
| EFG | But I'm using GNOME | 04:23 |
| iplaythisgame | Mecha25, even deleting a partition? besides it started as vista, then i reformated the partition for osx | 04:23 |
| bastid_raZor | EFG; you can use kde apps in gnome. | 04:23 |
| evo | let me check if router sees the ip | 04:23 |
| Nillerz | Audacius uses a buttload of ram... anyone hear of Songbird? It's in alpha, it's a ram ho for Windows but it IS in ALPHA so it may be the future for linux media players. | 04:23 |

| [TiZ] | I've got an easy one this time. Hopefully. I messed up my iPod's mount point and now I can't mount it. How do I fix it? | 04:24 |
| Guest92397 | why would the upgrade from gutsy-> hardy remove this | 04:24 |
| Blaqlight | Nillerz: I have it installed, used it once, its a terrible waste of space right now. | 04:24 |
| Guest92397 | also, dpkg and apt are gone too | 04:24 |
| Coffeeburrito | I'm running rhythmbox 0.11.5 in Hardy Heron, and recently learned about the rhythmbox ipod support. I must be doing something wrong, because it won't automatically convert m4a to mp3 on the fly for me. It just copies them as m4a, which my shuffle can't play. I googled for solutions, but oddly people say rhythmbox is supposed to do this conversion by default. Songs that were already mp3 format were copied correctly, but how do I make it convert | 04:24 |
| Coffeeburrito | m4a? A dude in the rhythmbox channel said it was a HAL problem, but I don't know what exactly to do, and couldn't find the answer in their mailing list either | 04:24 |
| iplaythisgame | Mecha25, its not anything now, i was able to delete the partitions, reports free space now | 04:24 |
| Nillerz | Yes, but it is fairly good considering how young it is and promising considering how easy to use it is. | 04:24 |
| belzebub | EFG, you mean MsSuse? | 04:24 |
| [TiZ] | Here, I'll be more descriptive. When I try to mount it, it tells me there's an invalid character in the mountpoint. | 04:24 |
| bastid_raZor | Nillerz; songbird at its current state devours RAM in ubuntu too.. for gnome Rythmbox by default | 04:24 |
| Mecha25 | iplaythisgame: are you trying to triple-boot? | 04:25 |
| EFG | belzebub: No, openSUSE. I couldn't use KDE apps in GNOME at all | 04:25 |
| EFG | for some reason | 04:25 |
| band4life | I dont think linux can compare to windows until you can play all the games on linux, that you can on windows. and linux is fairly complicated when it comes to installation of certain things. once it is more user friendly it will be the best, but until then, I will use my dual-boot. | 04:25 |
| Blaqlight | bastid_raZor: yes I found that out too. | 04:25 |

Linux isn't designed to outdo or outsell windows. it just wants to be the best OS it can. if that means outselling microsoft, then so be it, but it's not going to get easier or better with that as a goal. if it does, it wouldn't be linux, at least not to me.

| Mecha25 | oh! you have them in an extended partition, that's the problem! | 04:31 |
| Housefly7k | [TiZ]: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=168221 maybe this link will help you | 04:32 |
| Mecha25 | extended partitions are weird, you have to resize them before their contents, or somehting like that. I never did get it fully, I just messed around until my setup worked. | 04:32 |
| iplaythisgame | Mecha25, ok so how i fix without a /backupreinstall | 04:32 |
| Mecha25 | iplaythisgame: try resizing SDA2, not SDA5 | 04:32 |
| band4life | reactos sounds interesting, but I would prefer it if linux could run windows software more fluently. | 04:32 |
| iplaythisgame | Mecha25, i dont think it gave me any options but i can look again. | 04:32 |
| band4life | whynot? | 04:32 |
| blarg | grrrrr i want to listen to music#@!%@! lol | 04:33 |
| Mecha25 | band4life: then start hacking on wine :D | 04:33 |
| iplaythisgame | Mecha25, thanks at least i kinda know the prob now | 04:33 |
| Mecha25 | iplaythisgame: better idea!! | 04:33 |
| iplaythisgame | ? | 04:33 |
| Mecha25 | iplaythisgame: copy your sda5 to the unallocated space at the front of the drive, shrink it, add a swap partition, then scrap the second half. it'll keep everything, and once the second half is gone, you can resize everything to fit | 04:34 |
| Mecha25 | the copy and paste buttons at the top of that screen are wonderful I must say | 04:34 |
| Housefly7k | iplaythisgame: are you trying to use up that first unallocated 36.16 Gb ...by adding it to /dev/sda5 | 04:34 |
| band4life | mecha25 i can barely use linux as it is. I grew up on dos, and windows. and linux is a new language. but I can see the potential to take over the entire market. nothing is better than free, especially when it does everything anything else can do. | 04:34 |
| iplaythisgame | Mecha25, good idea | 04:34 |
| iplaythisgame | Housefly7k, yes | 04:34 |
| voidmage | firefox question - when I use type to find and it brings up the quick find bar, f3 and shift-f3 don't work to find next/previous | 04:34 |
| voidmage | how do i fix this? | 04:34 |
| Mecha25 | band4life: it's potential, yeah, but it's not happening anytime soon. If it was going to, it would have happened long ago, in the .com boom. at least that's what I think | 04:35 |
| Housefly7k | iplaythisgame: resize the /dev/sda2 extended partition first, and then you should be able to merge them | 04:35 |
| iplaythisgame | Housefly7k, thnks ill try | 04:35 |
| band4life | mecha25 why is it so hard to get windows software to run in linux? | 04:35 |

| homerj | running Windows just because it has games, is like going to the shitty grocery store because they have the larger jar of pickles | 04:38 |

| evo | yeah, i used the network manager gui | 04:46 |
| Dexikiix | eth0:avahi sounds like its referring to your adapter setup | 04:46 |
| wols | evo: avahi is a mdns daemon (zeroconf) | 04:46 |
| evo | just set to dhcp | 04:46 |
| evo | but no luck | 04:46 |
| wols | 169.254.x.x means dhcp tried to get a dhcp address and failed | 04:46 |

| DozedOnLinux | wols: oh i like that lspci -nn | 04:49 |
| Dexikiix | lol | 04:49 |
| Mecha25 | veynom: then use that to type in the command, which will reset your xorg.conf, and should re-enable the keyboard. make sure you have the ps/2 one plugged in when you run it | 04:49 |

| kercyr | How do you find a particular executable/script in the repository? (e.g. psbind) | 04:57 |
| esac | wols: you sent that to me, not evo | 04:57 |
| Mecha25 | wols: yeah, but I at least have to give the guy the benefit of the doubt. He could be just an overzealous parent like mine used to be | 04:57 |
| fantomas | wols: using firestarter I mean | 04:57 |
| evo | i didnt see that wols , sorry | 04:57 |
| wols | fantomas: with iptables, sure. with firestarter: no clue. Do you use ipmasq? | 04:57 |
| wols | Mecha25: still malware | 04:58 |
| esac | Mecha25: you can be sure that when my girls start using the computer, i will be running 'malware' like this to log their actions | 04:58 |
| esac | Mecha25: but theyve got a few years :) | 04:58 |

| debian | hi everyone | 04:58 |
| evo | wols: sis900 | 04:58 |
| Jasnation | general question: about a week or two ago, I downloaded the ubuntu live cd iso and burned several disks, none of which worked. I did the md5 checks and such, but still nothing worked and there was no reason for it (the linux kernel was failing to load). The cd I requested from shipit just got here, and it works perfectly. Has anyone else had similar problems? | 04:59 |
| jigp | hello what is the best torrnt client to use in ubuntu aside from transmission torrent? thanks | 04:59 |
| wols | evo: that's supported by default. sudo ifconfig -a | 04:59 |
| === debian is now known as Guest81704 | ||
| Guest81704 | jigp, the two i like are azureus and ktorrent | 04:59 |
| wols | Jasnation: define "doesn't work" for the md5sum stuff you did | 04:59 |
| evo | im already root :) . and ive been using ifconfig to check | 04:59 |

| rand0m | ??? my windows partition would auto-mount on boot with ubuntu since i installed it about 2 months ago - suddenly now it's not mounting | 04:59 |
| wols | evo: pastebin the output | 04:59 |
| jigp | why you like azureus and ktorrent? Guest81704? | 04:59 |
| rand0m | it shows in the last of mounting devices | 04:59 |
| Jasnation | wols: I did md5 checks and they said the download was fine | 04:59 |
| evo | wols: how? im not connected | 05:00 |
| wols | you have a usb stick, floppies, etc? | 05:00 |

| wols | fantomas: that doesn't answer my question | 05:01 |
| Guest81704 | thx MrVampy | 05:01 |
| Jasnation | wols: from the ubuntu startup thing when the disk loaded, I tried to verify the disk or whatever but the linux kernel failed to load (the loading bar just gets stuck) | 05:01 |
| Mecha25 | esac: I don't agree with you doing that, but hey, I'm not here to judge, I'm here to help. google for sources, that's about all I can recommend, you're not going to find software to do stuff like that built into ubuntu, that's just not something that tends to happen | 05:01 |

| blarg | grrrrrrrrr | 05:04 |
| wols | fantomas: if you want to portforward, you have to chnage the router(s) doing NAT for you. you can't change local iptables and expect forwarded ports | 05:04 |

| dexikiix | mibbit gave me crap | 05:06 |
| wols | Mecha25: either it's a mispaste or if he continues it, he earns a ban from an op | 05:06 |
| rand0m | debian_akroyd, i tried but i think i'm retarded & forgot the actual line | 05:06 |
| fantomas | wols: I didn't think too much about how I will do this, so can't give a quick answer to it | 05:06 |
| LinuxIST | how do you resolve flash menu below a page in firefox. You click the menu and can't see it because it is behind graphics | 05:06 |

| debian_akroyd | rand0m, sudo mount /dev/[windows partition] /media/[mount folder] | 05:06 |
| Wickerman | hi! | 05:06 |
| rand0m | Mecha25, ahh ok.. is there a way i can fix it from here, or should i boot back into windows & then shutdown ? | 05:06 |
| wols | fantomas: I told you what to do. changing your local iptables setup won't do a thing. you need to change the device doing NAT for you | 05:06 |
| evo | wols: http://pastebin.com/d6779f5ea | 05:06 |
| iplaythisgame | rand0m: boot into the windows and shut it down properly, bet that fixed it | 05:06 |
| debian_akroyd | ex: sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/harddisk | 05:06 |
| wols | fantomas: whihc most likely makes it OT here | 05:07 |
| rand0m | iplaythisgame, k ill give that a shot | 05:07 |
| fantomas | wols: actually I expected to get working something like: -A PREROUTING -i lo -p tcp --dport 2802 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.0.6:2802 | 05:07 |
| Mecha25 | rand0m: just boot windows and shutdown, that should fix it, easier than terminal hacking for me at least | 05:07 |
| dexikiix | wols: i ran that lspci -nn (bcm43xg) | 05:07 |
| * Mecha25 's jaw drops at fantomas's TCP/IP foo | 05:07 | |
| wols | evo: so you have eth0 which is probably your NIC and it has an IP. what doesn't work exactly? | 05:07 |
| debian_akroyd | iplaythisgame, you can still mount a windows partition even if it wasnt shut down proper, you just have to throw in the -o force | 05:07 |
| Mecha25 | that looks impressive | 05:07 |
| evo | i cant ping gateway | 05:07 |
| evo | or get to the internet | 05:07 |
| evo | nothing gets resolved | 05:08 |
| evo | i used my gateway as the dns | 05:08 |
| wols | fantomas: is your ubuntu doing the NAT? if yes, you can portforward. if no, no matter what you do it won't work | 05:08 |
| evo | and also an outside dns | 05:08 |
| iplaythisgame | debian_akroyd: prolly easier for him though. or can u perma force? | 05:08 |
| wols | evo: cat /etc/resolv.conf | 05:08 |
| newclimb | hello anybody can help me i wanna conect with a switch is there any comand to do it, because with a point I used sudo dhclient and it worked but with a switch it doesn't work? | 05:08 |
| debian_akroyd | iplaythisgame, idk about the perma force ive only had that occur once | 05:08 |
| wols | iplaythisgame: sure you can. if you want to corrupt data | 05:08 |
| fantomas | wols: I simply need to forward traffic comming from local processes. Do they reach nat/PREROUTING? huh | 05:09 |
| evo | wols: it shows the 2 nameservers i put in. but that still doesn't explain why i cant ping addresses | 05:09 |
| wols | fantomas: since you don't do NAT: NO | 05:09 |
| wols | fantomas: use a ssh portforward | 05:09 |

| Mecha25 | Gustov: yeah, but the easiest way would be to install Hardy Heron and see if it works with that | 05:11 |

| iplaythisgame | does the site list it like that? | 05:20 |
| iplaythisgame | .. | 05:20 |
| wols | dexikiix: then I ask you a LAST time: do you have a working GUI? | 05:20 |
| Gustov | but I only had a copy of fiesty fawn aka 7.04 | 05:20 |
| evo | wols: address for kernel log? | 05:21 |
| iplaythisgame | wols: he said yes | 05:21 |
| dexikiix | i see a desktop and icons and all that, i thats what you mean | 05:21 |
| wols | evo: where all logs are /var/log | 05:21 |
| Mecha25 | Gustov: hehe, now I get the situation, that's funny. Open the box with the crowbar you will find inside | 05:21 |
| dexikiix | if* | 05:21 |
| evo | lol man. im a noob at linux | 05:21 |
| wols | dexikiix: ok, the ndisgtk should work fine. have fun | 05:21 |
| Mecha25 | Gustov: best of luck to you though | 05:21 |
| dexikiix | wols. i dont even know what ndisgtk is... lol | 05:21 |
| Gustov | what do you mean mecha? | 05:21 |
| wols | evo: man locate. awesomely useful command to check where is what | 05:21 |
| dexikiix | and i have yet to see it around anywhere | 05:21 |
| wols | dexikiix: the name of a ubuntu package | 05:21 |
| wols | apt-cache show ndis-gtk | 05:21 |
| wols | apt-cache show ndisgtk | 05:22 |
| Mecha25 | Gustov: you're trying to fix your wireless to get the new version, which will fix your wireless | 05:22 |
| Gustov | lol | 05:22 |
| iplaythisgame | lol | 05:22 |
| cyphase | i can't quite remember.. is cups-pdf installed by default in hardy, and the pdf printer enabled? | 05:22 |
| Gustov | well yeah... I want to upgrade for other reasons as well | 05:22 |
| dexikiix | W: unable to locate package ndis-gtk | 05:22 |
| dexikiix | E: NO packages found | 05:22 |
| Gustov | is hardy the newest ubuntu I take? | 05:22 |
| wols | dexikiix: I corrected myself. read up | 05:22 |
| wols | Gustov: yes | 05:22 |
| dexikiix | oh | 05:22 |
| Gustov | I was hoping it was a software client lol | 05:22 |
| dexikiix | same error | 05:23 |
| Gnea | dexikiix: try this: apt-cache search ndis gtk | 05:23 |
| dexikiix | ok | 05:23 |
| wols | Gustov: I am asking you for the third time: what wlan chip? | 05:23 |
| Gustov | PCI | 05:23 |
| dexikiix | no responce, gnea | 05:23 |
| Mecha25 | Gustov: yes, Hardy is the newest ubuntu | 05:23 |
| wols | PCI is not a chip. it's a bus protocol | 05:23 |
| Gustov | wols* | 05:23 |
| jsjones | when I upgraded to 8.04, I overwrite all my video card config files, so now I have no 3d support. is there anyway I can get them back? | 05:23 |
| Gnea | Gustov: it is highly recommended that you provide wols with the information he requests. | 05:23 |
| iplaythisgame | wols: easy killer, some people are utter noobs, and he has already asked you how to find that out | 05:23 |
| Mecha25 | jsjones: did you do a backup? | 05:24 |
| wols | Gustov: you didn't answer my question. use lspci -nn to check if you don't know | 05:24 |
| Gustov | oh okay | 05:24 |
| Gustov | one secod | 05:24 |
| Gustov | sec* | 05:24 |
| jsjones | mecha25: no. I'm screwed aren't I? | 05:24 |
| DozedOnLinux | quote: wols: apt-cache show ndisgtk | 05:24 |
| Mecha25 | jsjones: you figured it out once, you can do it again | 05:24 |
| wols | jsjones: you are human, so yes you are by default. no matter what | 05:24 |
| dexikiix | wols, same error. i have no wired connection either | 05:24 |
| DJNeoUbuntu | somebody know how to install an eggdrop ? | 05:24 |
| wols | dexikiix: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=ndis&searchon=names&suite=hardy§ion=all | 05:25 |
| skrag | Hi guys, so im trying to use JACK (the audio editor) and no matter what i do the server would give me any sound, all my other audio programs work but JACK & friends... (hardy heron) its an onboard nvidia hd soundcardd | 05:25 |
| Mecha25 | DJNeoUbuntu... computers have eggdrops? I thought that was a soup? | 05:25 |
| skrag | wouldnt* | 05:25 |
| Mecha25 | skrag: have you made sure nothing else is using your sound card? | 05:25 |
| Gnea | DJNeoUbuntu: sudo apt-get install eggdrop | 05:25 |
| jsjones | mecha25: but it took forever. I had to do it twice- once to get my video card to work, and another time to make compiz work | 05:25 |
| wols | dexikiix: download all packages there except the one ndisc6 one. then copy them over to the ubuntu install | 05:25 |
| Gnea | DJNeoUbuntu: (you don't have to make the pizza anymore) | 05:25 |
| jsjones | mecha25: but that was over a year ago | 05:25 |
| === sheep is now known as Starnestommy | ||
| wols | DJNeoUbuntu: use supybot. much nicer and easier to use | 05:25 |
| dexikiix | lol mecha its an irc bot | 05:25 |
| Mecha25 | jsjones: yeah, I had the same thing, took me a week to get one monitor working, 3 weeks to get both | 05:26 |
| sorin-mihai | DJNeoUbuntu, if is not working with that you'l have to install it from sources | 05:26 |
| wols | jsjones: what videocard? | 05:26 |
| Gnea | Mecha25: eggdrop is the original, old-school irc bot. | 05:26 |
| Mecha25 | desikiix: who's a bot? | 05:26 |
| dexikiix | wols should i get that and move it over with a flash drive? | 05:26 |
| wols | Gnea: and it sucks almost as much as ircII | 05:26 |
| Mecha25 | d'oh | 05:26 |
| wols | dexikiix: yes. you need the .deb files | 05:26 |
| === kat is now known as Guest15445 | ||
| dexikiix | mecha eggdrop | 05:26 |
| Gnea | wols: ircII ruled back in the day | 05:26 |

| jsjones | wols: ati X1400 | 05:27 |

| Gnea | wols: have you considered therapy? | 05:27 |
| Gustov | okay viatechnologies.. I'm looking under pci no? | 05:27 |
| Mecha25 | skrag, then nothing else should be using it. are you using Jack Control from Add/Remove programs? | 05:27 |
| Gustov | do you want the number that follows? | 05:27 |
| DJNeoUbuntu | who know what is the best OS for an EGG ? | 05:27 |
| skrag | mecha25 yeah | 05:27 |
| wols | Gnea: compared to my other neuroses, this is a minor insignificant one. I guess I bear this emotional scar until I die | 05:27 |
| evo | wols: no eth0 down log. just "media link off" i brought it down and back up a few times though at first | 05:27 |
| jsjones | wols: I have all the restricted drivers and such, but I overwrote my xorg.conf and a bunch of other files when I updated | 05:28 |
| wols | DJNeoUbuntu: something POSIX compatible | 05:28 |
| DJNeoUbuntu | :) | 05:28 |
| dexikiix | lmao im going to use my MP3 player as a flash drive | 05:28 |
| DJNeoUbuntu | like....? | 05:28 |
| Gnea | wols: :) | 05:28 |
| wols | like linux | 05:28 |
| DozedOnLinux | Gustov: yes the number and the model | 05:28 |
| Prez00 | hello all | 05:28 |
| DJNeoUbuntu | i have linux | 05:28 |
| LOWER_CASE | In Nautilus 2.20.0, when I try to burn a CD, *EVERY* time it craps out with a message to say "lower the burn speed", but in nautilus I cannot find this bl**dy setting... anybody know where that is? | 05:28 |
| Mecha25 | skrag: ok, go into the configuration pane of Jack Control, set everything to default, and pray. Worked for me, I've found everytime I touch something in that config pane, all heck breaks loose and nothing works till I reset it | 05:28 |
| scribawf | how do i obtain mount privilges on a cd-r/rw device | 05:28 |
| wols | evo: no eth0 up anywhere? | 05:28 |
| my_haz | the bars on the top and bottom of gnome disapeared after i pushed the shutdown red button. I am running Hardy, and i just did an update (the problem started after the update). So two questions, are there hotkeys to switch desktops. How do i fix this problem. And amusingly my googling brought up this lovely gem of internet smartz http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=706866 | 05:28 |
| DJNeoUbuntu | but what linux is the best? | 05:28 |
| evo | didnt see it | 05:28 |
| wols | evo: eth0: Media Link On 100mbps full-duplex | 05:28 |
| evo | dont see that | 05:29 |
| wols | evo: that's what my SIS900 says | 05:29 |
| Gnea | !best | DJNeoUbuntu | 05:29 |
| ubot3 | DJNeoUbuntu: 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. | 05:29 |
| my_haz | DJNeoUbuntu: that depends on what you want to | 05:29 |
| wols | evo: cable problems | 05:29 |
| Gustov | PCI bridge [0604]: via technologies, Inc. VT8363/8365 | 05:29 |
| Dodger | hi all, my audio is working fairly well, except when I play ONE video, it seems to lock up my entire audio system (no audio plays during any videos or playing sounds files). For some strange reason audio still works for flash videos played through firefox. Any suggestions on how I can unblock the sound system without rebooting? | 05:29 |
| sorin-mihai | DJNeoUbuntu, a *BSD like OS may work as well. | 05:29 |
| wols | Gustov: a pci bridge is no wlan chip | 05:29 |
| DozedOnLinux | Gustov: thats better Gustov | 05:29 |
| Gustov | [KT133/KM133 AGP] | 05:29 |
| wols | Gustov: but my condolences for having to use Via | 05:29 |
| Gustov | lol I got my laptop next to me now | 05:29 |
| Gustov | much easier | 05:29 |
| evo | wols: holy crap. i think youre right | 05:30 |
| DozedOnLinux | Gustov: that is, if wols was looking for PCI -Bridge | 05:30 |
| wols | evo: I usually are. remember, I'm a god | 05:30 |
| my_haz | Dodger: I never had that problem until i installed Hardy. It doesn't happen in Dapper or Feisty, i don't think this has been fixed in hardy yet. | 05:30 |
| Gustov | host bridge? | 05:30 |
| legend2440 | jsjones: so the ATI drivers are enabled in System>Admin>Hardware Drivers? | 05:30 |
| Cylinder1024 | restart sound daemon? | 05:30 |
| LOWER_CASE | Anyone know where the CD burn speed setting is in Nautilus? | 05:30 |
| wols | Gustov: you are looking for network chips. nothing else | 05:30 |
| Mecha25 | evo:.... you know, I hate when that happens. | 05:30 |
| Kernel | i cant seem to find a screen capture program capable of recording my desktop while i try to play a game in wine...it records until the game starts...then its just a black screen where the game screen should be | 05:31 |
| jsjones | legend2440: yes | 05:31 |
| scribawf | Where do I obtain mount privileges on a device? | 05:31 |
| wols | jsjones: do you have a GUI? e.g. is it using VESA or fglrx? | 05:31 |
| wols | scribawf: sudo | 05:31 |
| my_haz | Kernel: did you try xvidcap? | 05:31 |
| scribawf | wols; Tnx | 05:31 |
| Kernel | my_haz: yea. xvidcap istanbull cand capturemydesktop | 05:31 |
| Prez00 | running hardy and everything works beautifully, except the video on movie player, it looks grainy, using mplayer, while useing X11, Gl or GL2 there ir no prob, but the mplayer plugin in firefox also displays grainy image | 05:31 |
| wols | jsjones: or is X barfing when you try to start it? | 05:31 |
| sorin-mihai | LOWER_CASE, /apps/nautilus-cd-burner in gconf-editor? | 05:31 |
| jsjones | wols: gnome is working fine, using fglrx | 05:31 |
| Kernel | *and | 05:31 |
| legend2440 | jsjones: does fglrxinfo say ATI or mesa? | 05:32 |
| evo | test | 05:32 |
| dexikiix | evo i see you :) | 05:32 |
| wols | jsjones: glxinfo then .pastebin the result | 05:32 |
| wols | !test | 05:32 |
| ubot3 | Failed! | 05:32 |
| dexikiix | ok wols i got the .deb | 05:32 |
| Mecha25 | hahahahahaha | 05:32 |
| wols | evo: that's how you test :) | 05:32 |
| wols | dexikiix: all 3? | 05:32 |
| jsjones | hold on one sec | 05:32 |
| DozedOnLinux | Gustov: Network / Ethernet / Wireless things like that try > sudo lshw -C network | 05:32 |
| my_haz | Kernel: not sure | 05:32 |
| sorin-mihai | LOWER_CASE, there is a "default_speed 0" key. i think that is what you look for. | 05:32 |
| DozedOnLinux | Gustov: that will narrow it down to just network | 05:33 |
| dexikiix | i only saw one | 05:33 |
| Prez00 | I am using i915 driver for Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 | 05:33 |
| dexikiix | ... | 05:33 |
| dexikiix | ndisgtk_0.8.3-1_i386.deb | 05:33 |
| Kernel | my_haz: yea me neither...they all worked fine for just recording my desktop..but i was looking to make a few videos of my playing windows games in linux to show to friends... | 05:33 |
| evo | wols: i accidentally unplugged the wrong cable in the mess of wires behind the server... | 05:33 |
| DozedOnLinux | Gustov: basically needs something to identify with the chip your network card is using so as to get the correct driver if need be. some cards are blacklisted, in which they will not work unless you take them off. | 05:34 |
| wols | dexikiix: that's nice but I told you to download 3 of the 4 packages listed on that page I gave you | 05:34 |
| Mecha25 | evo: God bless you man, that must feel awful | 05:34 |
| LOWER_CASE | gotta go, will look into it | 05:34 |
| Mecha25 | Kernel: have you tried playing the games in non-fullscreen mode? | 05:34 |
| dexikiix | ohk | 05:34 |
| DozedOnLinux | Gustov: without that information its like pick a single 4 leaf clover out of a pile of 10 million, hardly a chance to get the correct one | 05:34 |
| Kernel | Mecha25: yea. im playing in "windowed" mode | 05:34 |
| dexikiix | i must have missedit | 05:35 |
| Mecha25 | Kernel: have you tried turning off Compiz? | 05:35 |
| skrag | mecha25: well i guess ill just keep screwing with the settings for jack, by configuration pane you mean clicking setup when you start jack control | 05:35 |
| dexikiix | ndisgtk, ndiswrapper-common, and utils? | 05:35 |
| Kernel | Mecha25: i dont use compiz | 05:35 |
| Mecha25 | skrag: yep, and good luck | 05:35 |
| wols | dexikiix: yes | 05:35 |
| DozedOnLinux | Gustov: wols asked you that for a reason, if you want assistance, you need to supply the information they need, otherwise its a shot in the dark | 05:35 |
| dexikiix | sry | 05:35 |
| Mecha25 | Kernel: odd... I don't do screen-recording stuff, but you can always just do printscreen | 05:35 |
| Kernel | Mecha25: do i still have to disable something...even though i dont use compiz? | 05:35 |
| Prez00 | anyone else with grainy image on movie player? | 05:36 |
| Gustov | went to network.. ethernet wasn't there... I think fiesty fawn was designed differently | 05:36 |
| Gustov | let me try that command | 05:36 |
| wols | Gustov: lspci -nn tells you everything you need to know in one small screen | 05:36 |
| Mecha25 | Gustov: how are you on IRC? another computer? | 05:36 |
| evo | yeah Mecha25: it does. | 05:36 |
| wols | Gustov: pastebin the output of lspci -nn and we can see which chip it is ourselves | 05:37 |
| Gymp | Anybody know a program that query's the firmware of a dvddrive in linux gui or console app | 05:37 |
| Gymp | ? | 05:37 |
| * Mecha25 pats evo on the back. at least it work snow | 05:37 | |
| wols | Gymp: try lshw | 05:37 |
| wols | usually the kernel tells you firmware versions | 05:37 |
| Mecha25 | wols: did you write linux or something? how do you know all this stuff? | 05:37 |
| Gymp | thanks wols | 05:37 |
| Mecha25 | I'm impressed | 05:37 |
| debian_akroyd | lol mecha25 | 05:38 |
| Gustov | another computer, yes | 05:38 |
| Gymp | now you know of any flashers for firmware :P | 05:38 |
| evo | yeah. i unplugged the cable from my xbox360(which had a dedicated nic in my server and received an ip through windows ics x.x.0.x), then plugged it into the nix box | 05:38 |
| Gustov | I understand, sorta a noob to linux | 05:38 |
| Gustov | so I'm checking all areas | 05:38 |
| DozedOnLinux | Gustov: playing games with your head ? haha oh geez | 05:38 |
| debian_akroyd | Mecha25, hes probably linux certified | 05:38 |
| wols | Gymp: don't exist. firmware flashers are always made by the company building the dvd drive.... and they don't do linux versions | 05:38 |
| evo | well i was giving it a gateway of 2.1 when it was connected to an 0.x network | 05:38 |
| wols | at most you get a DOS version you can use via FreeDOS on a CD-RW | 05:38 |
| DozedOnLinux | Gustov: having fun ? as you havent supplied not one thing wols asked for. not good. | 05:39 |
| Gustov | ethernet controller? | 05:39 |
| Mecha25 | Gustov: can you download and burn a Hardy Heron CD from that computer, then install it on the broken one? | 05:39 |
| evo | oh well. layer 1 ftw!!! | 05:39 |
| dexikiix | wols; got all 3, open with package installer? | 05:39 |
| legend2440 | Gymp: http://binflash.cdfreaks.com/ | 05:39 |
| Gustov | will it erase all previous storage? | 05:39 |
| Gymp | thanks legend | 05:39 |
| evo | Im going to brb with more headaches. :D Thanks a ton guys! | 05:39 |
| wols | dexikiix: sudo dpkg <names of all 3 packages in a row" | 05:39 |
| Mecha25 | evo: np, you're a trooper | 05:39 |
| wols | dexikiix: either you then have ndisgtk installed, or there is an error. if there is an error, please pastebin the FULL output | 05:39 |
| wols | dexikiix: filenames of all 3 packages that is | 05:40 |
| felix-da-catz | For some reason when I am at home all the sudden i cannot access any external servers with SSH. I don't know what happened all the sudden, but it is frustrating. | 05:40 |

| wols | !anyone | K350 | 05:40 |
| ubot3 | K350: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 05:40 |
| dexikiix | wols with quotes, and file extensions is what i meant to be asking | 05:41 |
| Gustov | hey, your right | 05:41 |
| wols | no quotes, with extensions | 05:41 |
| Gustov | you're* | 05:41 |
| dexikiix | k ty | 05:41 |

| Strider`` | hello, can someone tell me how to install gnome on kubuntu with just the live cd | 05:42 |

| Gustov | then in quotes it says [1010ec:8139 | 05:43 |
| DozedOnLinux | wols: there is no need for violence. | 05:43 |
| Gustov | oh | 05:43 |
| Gustov | okay | 05:43 |
| dexikiix | wols it needs an action | 05:43 |
| Gustov | so the other | 05:43 |
| Dodger | Cylinder1024: I tried "sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart" and killing everything in "lsof | grep pcm" and still no sound | 05:43 |
| dolo | ? | 05:43 |
| K350 | it's a pretty simple thing to check so I'm just looking for someone who has gnome running | 05:43 |
| wols | dexikiix: what action? | 05:43 |
| gnomefreak | dolo: are you done pm'ing him? | 05:43 |
| dexikiix | dpkg: need an action option | 05:43 |

| DozedOnLinux | wols: i wont comment on such. you can keep that as you are blocked, i deal with noone offensive | 05:44 |
| wols | dexikiix: dpkg -i | 05:44 |
| Gustov | the 802.11 should have tipped me off | 05:44 |
| * wols sighs in relief. another m. gone | 05:44 | |

| DozedOnLinux | gnomefreak: i can understand, i truly didnt think it was a problem, but, i dont need to be told i will have my head ripped off, now isnt that a little overboard ? | 05:47 |
| wols | Gustov: you are here so you have internet. | 05:47 |
| gnomefreak | DozedOnLinux: i already said something about that to wols | 05:47 |
| wols | DozedOnLinux: ripping a new one doesn't involve heads | 05:47 |

| wols | damn. and I was hoping I was in the ignore list. another hope shattered | 05:49 |
| gnomefreak | DozedOnLinux: wols to continue this please do it in #ubuntu-offtopic or make achannel for it. | 05:49 |

I know with Nvidia you have the settings manager but is there such a thing for Intel graphics? | 05:51 |
| gnomefreak | regeya: i wont allow flame to start. and someone asked and they should beablet o install it from kubuntu cd | 05:51 |
| Dewente | Gnea: do u have a book ? | 05:52 |

| Dewente | i looking for a goob book about linux administrations | 05:52 |
| regeya | ok ok gnomefreak :-> | 05:52 |
| wols | dexikiix: you can't. use sudo. as in sudo <command> | 05:52 |
| Gnea | !sudo | dexikiix | 05:52 |
| dexter | dexikiix : su root | 05:52 |
| ubot3 | dexikiix: 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) | 05:52 |
| dexikiix | oh got it | 05:53 |
| fez_ | Is this the general help forum? | 05:53 |
| Gnea | fez_: for Ubuntu, yes. | 05:53 |
| wols | fez_: general help for ubuntu, yes | 05:53 |
| dexikiix | ok i think my driver is installed now | 05:53 |
| fez_ | cool | 05:53 |
| mariana | #acre | 05:53 |
| gnomefreak | fez_: this is support for ubuntu | 05:53 |
| sorin-mihai | gnomefreak, i think he/she quited irc | 05:53 |
| wols | ...unless I'm busy slobbering at Gnea | 05:53 |
| gnomefreak | sorin-mihai: thanks | 05:53 |
| wols | dexikiix: doubtful :) | 05:53 |
| Gnea | lol | 05:53 |
| dexikiix | wols yeah i know | 05:54 |
| fez_ | cool | 05:54 |
| wols | dexikiix: you need a windows driver. ndiswrapper is a tool to use windows drivers in linux | 05:54 |
| fez_ | well I have a prolem with ndiswrapper | 05:54 |
| dexikiix | mn720.inf | 05:54 |
| dexikiix | i did sudo ndiswrapper -i mn720.inf | 05:54 |
| Dewente | Any Recommendation Of A Good Book Of Administration ! | 05:54 |
| fez_ | woo.. I see someone has the problem | 05:54 |
| Gnea | !ndiswrapper | 05:54 |
| ubot3 | Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 05:54 |
| wols | Dewente: http://tldp.org/LDP/sag/html/index.html | 05:55 |
| dexikiix | and got back: installing mn720 ... forcing paramter IBSSGMode from 0 to 2 | 05:55 |
| fez_ | I have been there. | 05:55 |
| dexikiix | got that forcing ... twice | 05:55 |
| sudobash | would 915resolution help maybe? | 05:55 |
| fez_ | the thing is though is that when ever i try to get ndiswrapper to read the .inf... it tells me it can't find the file. | 05:55 |
| wols | sudobash: supposedly that is obsolete now IIRC | 05:55 |
| fez_ | is there something I need to edit on the terminal? | 05:55 |
| ari_stress | afternoon all :) | 05:55 |
| wols | fez_: then maybe it's not there? | 05:56 |
| fez_ | no... its def there. | 05:56 |
| neeto | I just got a new iphone and I can't get ubuntu to recognize it as a drive. It's not listed in /dev/, I have tried restarting HAL, is there something I'm missing? | 05:56 |
| sorin-mihai | gnomefreak, Strider`` was asking about installing from live cd... i was wrong. is still here. | 05:56 |
| fez_ | its on the desktop | 05:56 |
| DozedOnLinux | fez_ : alot of times, users go for the ndiswrapper way, when they dont really have to. most of the time a simple configure of the card is all that is needed. | 05:56 |
| wols | !iphone | 05:56 |
| ubot3 | Factoid iphone not found | 05:56 |
| Gustov | okay, I used the flash drive | 05:56 |
| neeto | lol | 05:56 |
| neeto | doh | 05:56 |
| Gustov | put them on ubuntu | 05:56 |
| fez_ | how would I do that then.. | 05:56 |
| wols | fez_: what chip do you have? wlan chip that is | 05:56 |
| Gustov | now just open the .deb packs? | 05:56 |
| fez_ | its a D600 | 05:56 |
| Gnea | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PortableDevices/iPhone | 05:56 |
| wols | fez_: that is no chip | 05:56 |
| fez_ | on a broadcom 4306 | 05:56 |
| sudobash | so how do you configure split screen in 8.04 with intel? | 05:56 |
| Gnea | neeto: ^^^ | 05:57 |
| wols | !bcm | 05:57 |
| ubot3 | Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs | 05:57 |
| Rohan | hey, i pinged out before. ill repeat my question | 05:57 |
| dexikiix | wols is there anything i have to do after ndiswrapper -i | 05:57 |
| neng_hopefull | hy | 05:57 |
| dexikiix | some type of network reconnect or something? | 05:57 |
| fez_ | yeah its the bcm | 05:57 |
| sjovan | sudobash: eh, i think it depends more on you card... | 05:57 |
| wols | dexikiix: iwconfig. if it went well your wlan device shows up there | 05:58 |
| Rohan | can someone help me to install gnome on kubuntu with just the live cd | 05:58 |
| sudobash | could you get vm XP to recognize the other monitor and display it? | 05:58 |
| wols | dexikiix: then you can configure it with gnome network manager for example | 05:58 |
| dexikiix | not associated with an access point | 05:58 |
| sudobash | yeah i think so... Intel sucks i know | 05:58 |
| dexikiix | :( | 05:58 |
| Gustov | "only one software management tooll is allowed to run at the same time" | 05:58 |
| wols | Gustov: you already have synaptic or somesuch running | 05:58 |
| sorin-mihai | Rohan, gnomefreak... :-" | 05:58 |
| dexikiix | but it does soh wait | 05:58 |
| === KevinO is now known as chanbot | ||
| sudobash | but do you think VM would be an idea? | 05:58 |
| Rohan | lol. | 05:59 |
| sudobash | i have it ready to check | 05:59 |
| Rohan | well im getting tired of using kde... | 05:59 |
| fez_ | anything? | 05:59 |
| Gustov | so restart? | 05:59 |
| wols | sudobash: no. the guest in the VM doesn't see the intel chip anymore | 05:59 |
| sudobash | i see... | 05:59 |
| wols | Gustov: no. close the other program | 05:59 |
| dexikiix | wlan0 is just spewing my network manager config i already had, i dont think it sees my device | 05:59 |
| wols | dexikiix: wlan0 IS your device | 05:59 |
| Gustov | doesn't seem to want to | 06:00 |
| Rohan | sp, can ANYONE answer me please | 06:00 |
| Rohan | so* | 06:00 |
| dexikiix | hi rohan | 06:00 |
| Gustov | I'll just restart | 06:00 |
| Rohan | hi | 06:00 |
| Gustov | no bigs | 06:00 |
| Gnea | !patience | Rohan | 06:00 |
| ubot3 | Rohan: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 06:00 |
| sudobash | dexikiix modprobe ndiswrapper | 06:00 |
| wols | Rohan: do you have kubuntu installed on hdd? | 06:00 |
| dexikiix | thanks sudobash | 06:00 |
| Rohan | yes @ wols | 06:00 |
| fez_ | when I tried loading the drivers with ndiswrapper, I even changed the directories.... nothing happened. | 06:00 |
| Rohan | and sorry for the impatience, lol | 06:00 |
| wols | Rohan: do you have network access in kubuntu? | 06:00 |
| Rohan | yeah | 06:01 |
| sudobash | you might have to run that as a startup script... or in one.... | 06:01 |
| wols | Rohan: internet access I mean | 06:01 |
| Rohan | but i dont want it to install it from the net | 06:01 |
| Rohan | yes | 06:01 |
| wols | so just apt-get install ubuntu-desktop | 06:01 |
| Rohan | no, my nets really slow | 06:01 |
| Rohan | it'll take me ages | 06:01 |
| sudobash | fez_ sudo modprobe ndiswrapper | 06:01 |
| Rohan | ive the live cd though. can i install gnome from it | 06:01 |
| wols | Rohan: no other way unless you donwload a ubuntu CD and that will take even longer | 06:01 |
| sudobash | after you load drivers | 06:01 |
| fez_ | ROhan... go to best buy and buy the cd | 06:01 |
| fez_ | the Ubuntu Cd | 06:01 |
| dexikiix | FATAL: Error inserting ndiswrapper (/lib/modules/2.6.24-19-genericubuntu/misc/ndiswrapper/ndiswrapper.ko): Operation not permitted | 06:01 |
| Rohan | ive the ubuntu cd... | 06:01 |
| Dewente | any book for learning linux administration | 06:01 |
| wols | Rohan: the live ubuntu CD? | 06:01 |
| DozedOnLinux | fez_ : bcm43xx is on the blacklist > cat /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist | 06:01 |
| Rohan | yes | 06:01 |
| wols | Dewente: I gave you a link | 06:01 |
| wols | Rohan: then you can | 06:02 |
| Rohan | please tell me how | 06:02 |
| sjovan | dexikiix: i can se you command or what you are trying to do, but did you forget sudo maby? | 06:02 |
| Dewente | wols: is not enough | 06:02 |
| sudobash | so if i have the dual monitor but there is no way with Intel to have Dual Split Screen I guess it was taken out of the xorg.conf file? | 06:02 |
| wols | Rohan: add the ubuntu live cd to your sources.list and install from there | 06:02 |
| Rohan | erm | 06:02 |
| dexikiix | i did with sudo after and it did nothng | 06:02 |
| arooni_____ | top says: 1987196k used, 87468k free, but gnome-system-monitor shows 800MB are free. free -m corresponds to this estimate. (1) why the discrepancy? (2) should i only really rely on free -m to tell me how much free stuff there is? | 06:02 |
| Rohan | can you give me the commands to do that | 06:02 |
| Rohan | please? | 06:02 |
| fez_ | say again, the first commands | 06:02 |
| wols | Rohan: it starts with man sources.list | 06:02 |
| Gustov | "downloading additional package files" | 06:02 |
| Rohan | ok | 06:02 |
| Gustov | wat? | 06:03 |
| wols | arooni_____: use free, yes | 06:03 |
| Rohan | isnt there a gui alternative.. | 06:03 |
| fez_ | sudo ndiswrapper -l gave me... | 06:03 |
| Rohan | like synaptic? | 06:03 |
| fez_ | bcmwl5 driver installed | 06:03 |
| fez_ | but the thing is that my card still doesn't detect. | 06:03 |
| wols | Rohan: first you have to show apt (or synaptic) that you have another repo on the ubuntu cd | 06:03 |
| godmode117 | is anyone else here using xchat? (not gnome-xchat) | 06:03 |
| sjovan | dexikiix: so you didn't get an output? then it prob. did what the command supose to do | 06:03 |
| Gustov | ugh, it wants to download | 06:03 |
| Rohan | i think i already added the cd to the sources | 06:03 |
| Gustov | when I have no internet | 06:03 |
| Gustov | for the wireless card | 06:03 |
| wols | fez_: pastebin your syslog file | 06:03 |
| fez_ | how do i get that? | 06:04 |
| Rohan | now please tell me which package i should install | 06:04 |
| DozedOnLinux | godmode117: i have it, and use it once in a while, what seems to be the issue ? | 06:04 |

| dexikiix | sjovan thanks | 06:04 |
| godmode117 | DozedOnLinux: its using a huge amount of memory | 06:04 |
| sudobash | ??? | 06:04 |
| === mgmeoblast is now known as meoblast001 | ||
| wols | Rohan: ubuntu-desktop. but it won't work until you edit the sources.list to make your ubuntu cd known to your apt | 06:04 |
| dexikiix | sjovan, wols knows what im trying to do | 06:04 |
| Rohan | oh! | 06:04 |

| binasco | =/ | 06:39 |
| DozedOnLinux | binasco: dont go past the limits of your monitor, as it can have some bad effects, check in terminal > sudo ddcprobe | 06:39 |
| Flannel | wols: He's not ban evading. And I was on it. | 06:39 |
| qinjuehang | bonez45:because they do have certain *ok* features, such as tabbing, and Expo, but on a Intel IGP it will look wierd with OpenGL | 06:40 |
| chelz | what do i need to add/change to make it so my vanilla 7.10 ubuntu can run 64bit applications? | 06:40 |
| wols | chelz: reinstall | 06:40 |
| qinjuehang | chelz: You need to reinstall | 06:40 |
| dexikiix | wols: the deb is there, but the terminal doesnt see it | 06:40 |
| fantomas | wols: my task is pretty simple. I have linux hosted and windows as guest in vmware. One application on linux requests local port 2802 for a windows app (webmoney client), which I run in guest Windows. So I simply want to tunnel localhost:2802 to guest:2802. I expected nc should do this: nc -l -p 2802 192.168.0.6 2802, but it exists with message right after connection is started: invalid connection to [127.0.0.1] from localhost [127.0. | 06:40 |
| DozedOnLinux | binasco: click on model, and choose the size that best matches your montor | 06:40 |
| qinjuehang | chelz: and you need a 64-bit processorm and also make sure your hardware has proper 64-bit drivers | 06:41 |
| binasco | DozedOnLinux: ddcprobe .. command not found | 06:41 |
| bmarley13 | could someone help me get my audio to work? | 06:41 |
| Guest14027 | good evening | 06:41 |
| DozedOnLinux | binasco: if you have LCD choose LCD models, if you have CRT choose CRT models | 06:41 |
| wols | fantomas: run ssh on the linux side, use a windows ssh client to portforward | 06:41 |
| dexikiix | bmarley13 i might be able to | 06:41 |
| qinjuehang | bmarley13: what audio card are you using? | 06:41 |

| Guest14027 | i am trying to write to file /etc/modprobe.d/options but i get operation not permitter | 06:42 |
| wols | fantomas: with netcat you need to run some sort of server on linux and use netcat from windows | 06:42 |
| DozedOnLinux | binasco : sudo ddcprobe not found ? ok | 06:42 |
| === Guest14027 is now known as Brucee | ||
| chelz | wols, qinjuehang: reinstalling is the easy way out, i want to tweak it until it works. i'd like to keep as much as what i have but i'm okay with recompiling the kernel and installing new libraries | 06:42 |
| bmarley13 | it's built into my gigabyte 965P-DS3, rev 1 | 06:42 |
| rexus | hi guys, is there any way I can scan all the IP in my local network? | 06:42 |
| sorin-mihai | binasco, enable the restricted driver for your video card, and after that install nvidia-settings. using nvidia-settings you can change the _real_ resolution. i had the same problem as you. | 06:42 |
| bmarley13 | it's realtek hd auiod | 06:42 |
| wols | Brucee: use sudo | 06:42 |
| dexikiix | bmarley13 go to System > Preferences > sound | 06:42 |
| wols | rexus: man nmap | 06:42 |
| DozedOnLinux | binasco: how old is the monitor and what kind is it CRT or LCD ? | 06:42 |
| qinjuehang | chelz: It is simply not possible | 06:42 |
| Brucee | new to ubuntu, just installed it | 06:42 |
| Brucee | whats the command on the terminal? wols | 06:42 |
| dexikiix | bmarley13 did you take a look in the "Sound playback" menu? | 06:42 |
| Brucee | sudo root? i get command not found | 06:42 |
| Flannel | Brucee: sudo -i | 06:43 |
| negge | Brucee: what are you trying to do? | 06:43 |
| wols | chelz: amd64 is a different platform from i386. just not possible. reinstall is the easiest and fastest way | 06:43 |
| dexikiix | select one of those and press test, wait 1 second and test all til you hear a beep, make sure your speakers arent too loud or it will hurt | 06:43 |
| bmarley13 | dexikiix it says autodetect | 06:43 |
| qinjuehang | bmarley13: is the snd intel intel_module_loaded | 06:43 |
| Brucee | edit the file options | 06:43 |
| dexikiix | bmarley13 mine was the last selection before ALSA | 06:43 |
| wols | Brucee: sudo nano <file to edit> | 06:43 |
| DozedOnLinux | binasco: sorin-mihai: has the right idea, but it still comes down to monitor and not neccesarily graphics card. the card can function fine, just needs to know what the monitor limits are, alot of times, Plug and Pray mis-identifies them | 06:43 |
| binasco | DozedOnLinux: now instaled.... | 06:43 |
| rexus | thanks wols | 06:43 |
| binasco | DozedOnLinux: next? | 06:44 |
| DozedOnLinux | binasco: you chos e amonitor that is matching the one you have ? | 06:44 |
| bmarley13 | no. alc883 digital and analog, alsa, oss, or PulseAudio | 06:44 |
| legend2440 | Brucee: gksudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/options | 06:44 |
| dexikiix | bmarley13, you pressed test on all and got now sound? | 06:45 |
| tobago | what does "BB package_name" means when doing aptitude search package_name? | 06:45 |
| dexikiix | no* | 06:45 |
| DozedOnLinux | binasco: nvidia-settings should allow you to change it to the correct settigns, if it doesnt then gksu displayconfig-gtk is the only way to go, as the other workarounds are not supported | 06:45 |
| sorin-mihai | DozedOnLinux, binasco, to be able to use nvidia-settings the restricted driver for nvidia mus be enabled. i think. not sure. | 06:45 |
| binasco | DozedOnLinux: WOOOWWW... nice | 06:45 |
| Ting | beleza não vou zuar mais, prometo | 06:45 |
| DozedOnLinux | binasco: do you have it ? | 06:45 |
| binasco | DozedOnLinux: im fix in nvidia-settings | 06:45 |
| Ting | onde tenho q ir pra tcr em portugues? | 06:45 |
| wols | !br | Ting | 06:46 |
| ubot3 | Ting: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt por ajuda em português. Obrigado. | 06:46 |
| chelz | qinjuehang, wols: each bit of linux is just set of files, i just need to know which to replace/add | 06:46 |
| DH1 | wols: seems to have fixed my problem, thanks | 06:46 |
| wols | chelz: ALL of them. i386 binaries are different from amd64 ones | 06:46 |
| qinjuehang | chelz: You need to replace ALL executable files, so... | 06:46 |
| DozedOnLinux | sorin-mihai: yes , some cards are a little funny, it is more of the steps taken in certain order rather than the right commands. | 06:46 |
| bmarley13 | dexikiix, tried em all, no sound | 06:46 |
| binasco | DozedOnLinux: VERY THANKS | 06:46 |
| DozedOnLinux | binasco: youre welcome enjoy Ubuntu | 06:46 |
| dexikiix | bmarley13 sorry thats as far as my help goes | 06:46 |
| dexikiix | im a linux newb too | 06:46 |
| Dewente | one question... red hat is graphical operating system ? | 06:46 |
| * sorin-mihai :)) | 06:46 | |
| Ting | ok | 06:47 |
| DozedOnLinux | sorin-mihai: thanks for the suggestions | 06:47 |
| wols | Dewente: red hat is a linux distro like ubuntu | 06:47 |
| dexikiix | wols: the fwcutter deb is invisible in the terminal | 06:47 |
| qinjuehang | bmarley13: is your Ubuntu out-of-the-box | 06:47 |
| chelz | qinjuehang, wols: i hear that 64bit environments can run 32bit binaries just fine though. wouldn't i be able to keep almost all of what i have now? i just don't know what a 64bit application requires | 06:47 |
| wols | dexikiix: unpossible! | 06:47 |
| Ting | pode me dizer como faço pra ir pra lá ( perninha) | 06:47 |
| Brucee | that worked thanks | 06:47 |
| Flannel | Ting: /join #ubuntu-br | 06:47 |
| Dewente | wols: yes i knew .. but is more graphical than ubuntu server ? | 06:47 |
| Brucee | how come i couldnt change the permissions? with chmod +rw [file] ? | 06:47 |
| dexikiix | wols: i put it in "Documents" i cd's to Documents, i typed "dir" it didnt show up | 06:47 |
| qinjuehang | chelz: Actually, if you are really, um...determined, just use 64-bit GCC and kernel | 06:47 |
| wols | chelz: no. ALL libraries are binaries and to run 64bit programs all those libraries need to be new AND in the place the 32bit libraries are now. stop already there is no way but reinstall | 06:47 |
| Brucee | sorry just changed from redhat to ubuntu | 06:47 |
| qinjuehang | I think you need to trick apt somehow to use 64-bit repos before doing that | 06:48 |
| wols | Dewente: that is a nonsense question | 06:48 |
| Dewente | why Brucee ? | 06:48 |

| LanceMartin | My computer doesn't can't seem to detect the internal modem | 06:48 |
| Rohan | can anyone help? | 06:48 |
| Brucee | cause i like the gui in ubuntu from video that i saw | 06:48 |
| Ting | deu na mesma | 06:48 |
| dexikiix | wols: can i just do "Open with Gdebi package installer"? | 06:48 |
| wols | qinjuehang: apt certainly won't do it. you'd need a LOT of dpkg --force stuff and most likely you will screw up beyond hope | 06:48 |
| Flannel | Ting: English only here please. | 06:49 |
| bmarley13 | qinjuehang, i reinstalled earlier today and ran updates | 06:49 |
| chelz | hmm i guess i'll google around | 06:49 |
| wols | !errors | dexikiix | 06:49 |
| ubot3 | dexikiix: If you have problems or errors, you will need to describe/paste them. Please use the !pastebin for errors that cannot be quoted in a single IRC message | 06:49 |
| Ting | certo | 06:49 |
| Ting | perninha | 06:49 |
| qinjuehang | chez:and you have to rename /usr/lib to /usr/lib32 and install ALL 64-bit libraries, and...I wouldn't DARE to try, but that's the principle | 06:49 |
| sorin-mihai | Rohan, have you inserted the cd? can you access it using? | 06:49 |

| Ting | quero ir pra uma sala q fale o melhor idioma do mundo (portugues) sou homem não gay (perninha) alguem pode me ajudar? | 06:50 |
| wols | Rohan: if you did it correctly, your apt frontend asks you to put that CD in, no need for you to mount it | 06:50 |
| dexikiix | wols: Is this not good enough? <dexikiix> wols: i put it in "Documents" i cd's to Documents, i typed "dir" it didnt show up | 06:50 |

| Flannel | Ting: /join #ubuntu-pt | 06:51 |
| tobago | and what does the state "iFR package_name" mean for "dpkg -l package_name"? | 06:51 |
| DozedOnLinux | addind the cdrom to repo is worthless without the cdrom actually being able to be read | 06:51 |
| dexikiix | wols: can i just do "Open with Gdebi package installer"? | 06:51 |
| Brucee | uhmm might somewhere but redhat kind of not good as before | 06:51 |

| wols | dexikiix: if you find the deb: yes | 06:51 |
| bmarley13 | qinjuehang, sorry, i misunderstood your question. i just meant there's no sound. what should i type to see if it's working? | 06:51 |

| LanceMartin | My computer is not able to find the internal modem ... ? | 06:57 |
| qinjuehang | LanceMartin: you might want to check whether your internal modem is supported | 06:58 |
| wols | LanceMartin: ac97 modem? winmodem? | 06:58 |
| sorin-mihai | dexikiix, you looked on a folder using a file browser, and saw the file, but did you looked on the same folder using the terminal? duble check that... | 06:58 |
| qinjuehang | wols: Realtek? | 06:58 |
| wols | qinjuehang: huh? | 06:58 |
| dexikiix | sorin-mihai i am absolutely positive the terminal and file browser are in the same place | 06:58 |
| wols | qinjuehang: AC97 is more than sound... | 06:58 |
| qinjuehang | 99% of modems are realtek I guess | 06:58 |
| LanceMartin | Just a regular PCI modem where can I find out if it is supported or not ... | 06:58 |
| dexikiix | terminal is showing the other files and folders that browser shows, but not this particular deb | 06:59 |
| wols | qinjuehang: if anything, connexant | 06:59 |
| wols | LanceMartin: lspci -nn as a first step | 06:59 |
| DozedOnLinux | wols: i verified that the drive was unreadable. please, i am just trying to help. the drive was showing mounted, but the Ubuntu LiveCD could not be read, as he said the other drives were acting bad as well. anyhow he is gone. | 06:59 |
| bmarley13 | qinjuehang, still no luck. | 06:59 |
| dexikiix | im just going to move the deb and see if that works | 06:59 |
| qinjuehang | I know...but I use Connexant and Intel HDA for sound for both comps, so I haven't touched the term AC97 for a while | 06:59 |
| LanceMartin | Thank you Wols ... How do I do that? | 07:00 |
| wols | I just told you | 07:00 |
| qinjuehang | bmarley13: when you test your sound in the sound preferences, what error do you get? | 07:00 |
| Mecha25 | LanceMartin, type lspci -nn in a terminal | 07:00 |
| chanita | hi | 07:00 |
| netcrusher88 | i'm looking to upgrade/rebuild my PC, and an acquaintance has recommended ATI - has ATI 3d performance on Linux caught up to nVidia, or is it still garbage? | 07:00 |
| Mecha25 | it's fine for performance... good luck getting dual monitors on it though | 07:01 |
| bmarley13 | qinjuehang, no error. it just says testing and i don't hear anything. speakers all the way up, all the volume settings in the computer turned all the way up. no errors anywhere, just no sound. | 07:01 |
| qinjuehang | netcrusher88: Um, it *will* since opensource drivers are coming out, but, not yet. | 07:01 |
| netcrusher88 | alright | 07:01 |
| wols | netcrusher88: nvidia is still a bit faster. ati can't write opengl drivers for their lives | 07:02 |
| qinjuehang | bmarley13: Maybe you could try using headphones, it miht not be a software problem for all you know. | 07:02 |

| wols | netcrusher88: unless you buy a overpriced high end card, you should be fine (4850 and 4870 are "better" than the nvidia ones. mided 8800gt of nvidia is still good tho | 07:03 |
| netcrusher88 | i've got my fingers crossed for the oss ati driver, but right now it seems the best driver out there is the nvidia binary one | 07:03 |
| wols | jigp: yes. you can resume later | 07:03 |
| === longs|eep is now known as longsleep | ||
| qinjuehang | wols: 9600GT owns 8800GT anytime (I have a 9600 :)) | 07:03 |
| wols | qinjuehang: costs more too afaik | 07:03 |
| netcrusher88 | i'm looking at 4850 vs nV 8800GT[S] | 07:03 |
| qinjuehang | wols: No, it costs 100 bucks less | 07:03 |
| wols | and a 9600gt is the same chip as 8800gt anyways | 07:03 |
| qinjuehang | wols:9600 is Cheaper (Note: 600) | 07:04 |

| qinjuehang | wols: It can overclock 50% further, so after a bit of pushing, it is simply cheap performance | 07:09 |
| wols | qinjuehang: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/nvidia-geforce-9600-gt,1780-3.html 8800gt uses g92, yours is a g94 | 07:09 |
| qinjuehang | wols: and it costs about half a 8800GT | 07:09 |
| minimax | sorin-mihai: there is no configure script, or automake | 07:09 |

| Slart | Ollie: I think you can use smbmount | 07:43 |
| debCarlos | dexikiix: Ok, i don't think you need ndiswrapper, just a internet connection and then do $ dpkg-reconfigure b43-fwcutter and select "Fetch blahblah" i did that and it worked :D | 07:44 |

| debCarlos | dexikiix: yeah, of course :). Do you have internet connection? | 07:47 |
| dexikiix | no | 07:47 |
| bazhang | Oldrie^Jimmy, never used that so cannot say; the recommended procedure here is at the !grub link | 07:47 |
| dexikiix | thats my prob | 07:47 |
| dexikiix | i am trying to setup wireless | 07:47 |

| Oldrie^Jimmy | bazhang: I'm sorry what is that? the !grub link? | 07:47 |
| chalcedony | dexikiix: all of us have gone through the process, good luck | 07:47 |

| bastid_raZor | dexikiix; go buy a 10$ ethernet card and then you'll be fine. | 07:48 |
| LinX | can you not help me on nxserver thing bazhang? | 07:49 |
| bazhang | dexikiix, no ethernet and broadcom is pretty hard to do | 07:49 |
| dexikiix | bastid, yeah but im really determined to get wireless!!!! | 07:49 |
| Blaqlight | tilda seems to work good now all the sudden... anyone else use it and or know if its been updated recently? | 07:49 |
| dexikiix | bazhang, so i've heard/learned | 07:49 |
| debCarlos | dexikiix: Ok, let me check for a moment the wiki page :) | 07:49 |
| bazhang | LinX, what does nxserver do? are there not tools within ubuntu that can do that (ie in repos) | 07:49 |
| LinX | any here tried running freenx server here? i need help | 07:49 |
| bastid_raZor | dexikiix; once you get an internet connection you'll be able to set up wireless. | 07:49 |
| dexikiix | debCarlos you dont have to go out of your way for me... if its too hard its ok | 07:49 |
| DozedOnLinux | bazhang: being that bcm is in the blacklist, does that mean that Ubuntu doesnt officially support it ? or maybe i have it wrong | 07:49 |
| dexikiix | lol bastid, once i get an internet connection, i wont need wireless anymore | 07:49 |
| bazhang | dexikiix, it is simple with an internet connection | 07:50 |
| dexikiix | damn catch-22... | 07:50 |
| p4_xxx | hi, does anyone know that are the steps to change from an automatic ip add to a static ip? i already set networ setting and set the configuration = static ip, ip address xxx.xx.x.xx, subnet mask = xxx.xxx.x.x, gateway address = xxx.xx.x.x., but it does not work, i write the command ifconfig and evrithing seem right, but i cant access internet. is there something i have to configure? | 07:50 |
| debCarlos | dexikiix: Actually, it's easy to install it :). And i don't have anything to do right now :P | 07:50 |
| bazhang | DozedOnLinux, check the !broadcom link | 07:50 |
| DozedOnLinux | dexikiix: look at it this way, LAN cards are much cheaper than WLAN cards :) | 07:50 |
| DozedOnLinux | ok | 07:50 |
| dexikiix | arighty then | 07:50 |
| Slart | p4_xxx: dns servers? | 07:50 |
| wols | dexikiix: +7EUR difference | 07:51 |
| dexikiix | Dozed, i already have the lan card, lol | 07:51 |
| dexikiix | er | 07:51 |
| dexikiix | wlan | 07:51 |
| DozedOnLinux | bazhang: youre always helpful, thank you | 07:51 |
| wols | p4_xxx: man interfaces | 07:51 |
| dexikiix | no lan card | 07:51 |
| dexikiix | well there might be one laying around here | 07:51 |
| wols | p4_xxx: and if you have set it there sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 07:51 |
| Blaqlight | wols am I still ignored? | 07:51 |
| dexikiix | but the big problem is i dont have a cat5e long enough to reach from my access point in the basement to my bedroom on the 2nd floor | 07:51 |
| BigNude | hello, it seems that server is auto-changing nameserver to default ISP server ip, how to dissable this future? | 07:52 |

| maek0 | um why is update manager offering me an update for an Intel graphics card when I have a NVIDIA card ?? | 07:52 |
| bazhang | Blaqlight, what is the issue | 07:52 |
| p4_xxx | do i have to write the same dns address from my modem? | 07:52 |
| wols | BigNude: man dhclient.conf | 07:52 |
| bazhang | maek0, I got that too | 07:52 |
| DozedOnLinux | bazhang: yes , i usually keep the msg open on ubottu so i can do that without disturbing others | 07:52 |
| Blaqlight | bazhang: he ignored me the other day, I was just curious... nothing more. | 07:52 |
| BigNude | wols : thank you! | 07:53 |
| wols | maek0: xserver-xorg-video-* are all part of X | 07:53 |
| bobertdos | maek0: Because when Ubuntu probes for hardware, it detects that your motherboard has onboard video, and so it offers the driver whether you're using it or not. | 07:53 |
| dexikiix | i heard a rumor that in 8.10 broadcom cards just.... work... no fuss, its just automatic | 07:53 |
| wols | maek0: you have drivers for S3 cards, Via cards, even 3dfx, all installed | 07:53 |
| bazhang | dexikiix, #ubuntu+1 for that | 07:53 |
| debCarlos | dexikiix: Are you using a laptop? | 07:53 |
| seyo | isti_@yahoo.co.id | 07:53 |
| maek0 | bobertdos, my mobo doesn't have a onboard video | 07:54 |
| bazhang | seyo, best do that in server window | 07:54 |
| dexikiix | deb, for this i am, ubuntu is on my PC | 07:54 |

| dexikiix | nice one dreamy | 07:55 |
| VipOrX | p4_xxx: http://paste.ubuntu.com/34329/ | 07:55 |
| newlnx | any ideas | 07:55 |
| wols | newlnx: man interfacs. set a static IP there. also youneed to set your DNS server | 07:55 |
| maek0 | oh cheers wols | 07:55 |
| newlnx | I did | 07:55 |
| p4_xxx | auto lo | 07:55 |
| p4_xxx | iface lo inet loopback | 07:55 |
| newlnx | dns | 07:55 |
| wols | newlnx: pastebin your /etc/network/interfaces then | 07:55 |
| dexikiix | you know what i just realized... right now Ubuntu is just a really big, good looking .flac player | 07:55 |
| bobertdos | maek0: Ah, well yes I'm wrong in that case. The truth is, Ubuntu's updates tend to be indiscriminant. Everyone gets offered the same stuff, given that the software was initially installed. | 07:55 |
| wols | p4_xxx: that's not enough. set your static IP there too | 07:56 |
| dexikiix | and i only have 4 .flac files | 07:56 |
| dexikiix | its hard to listen to the same files over and over | 07:56 |
| p4_xxx | ok | 07:56 |
| wols | dexikiix: still the fwcutter issue? | 07:56 |
| maek0 | bobertdos, well as long as it doesn't overwrite my video drivers | 07:56 |
| chalcedony | chull: did minimax reply? | 07:56 |
| debCarlos | dexikiix: Found the page :). What kernel are you running? | 07:57 |
| chalcedony | minimax seems to have gone, chull | 07:57 |
| bobertdos | maek0: Oh, no, no, don't worry about that. ;) | 07:57 |
| wols | dexikiix: which fwcutter package exactly did you try to download? | 07:57 |
| p4_xxx | somthing similar like this: i got the link | 07:57 |
| maek0 | speaking of graphics cards ... does anyone here run a 8 or 9 series NVIDIA card ?? | 07:57 |
| wols | dexikiix: uname -a to get the kernel version | 07:57 |

| nickolaus | Oldrie^jimmy did you install the 32bit itunes or 64bit. | 08:21 |
| rockenrola | timr92: those two are supposed to be independent. are you sure one was the cause to the other? | 08:22 |
| debCarlos | dexikiix: well... yeah, edi it lol | 08:22 |

| nickolaus | debcarlos so there is no way to forward a usb port to itunes? | 08:23 |
| timr92 | rockenrola: i copied the contents of .wine in my home dir to another user's homedir, changed permissions and my desktop icons went to red x's then i restart and not working at all :( | 08:23 |
| ajay | sda1 and sda 2 are my 2 partitions that have xp and vista | 08:23 |
| dexikiix | debCarlos same error | 08:23 |
| dexikiix | can i CD to it and just do tar xjf file? | 08:23 |
| dexikiix | and see if that works? | 08:23 |
| ajay | and when i boot in ubuntu i cant access them anymore | 08:23 |
| Oldrie^Jimmy | nickolaus: You know there is a freeware prog call Flula you put on your iPod and run it off that to sync music from differant computers. | 08:23 |
| debCarlos | nickolaus: i don't think so, because Windows and Linux have different directorys for devices :(. In windows they are place in C:\device\ and linux places them in /dev | 08:24 |
| rockenrola | timr92: what exactly is not working? | 08:24 |

| murlidhar | ? | 08:26 |

| rockenrola | timr92: ok, still you might want to try to boot from a previous kernel | 08:27 |
| timr92 | rockenrola: no internet connection at the time either, so it couldn't have updated itself | 08:27 |

| DozedOnLinux | dexikiix: mind i IM you with samples ? | 08:27 |
| timr92 | rockenrola: then what? | 08:27 |
| ikonia | murlidhar: depends if they support the protocol, and there is not a large ammount of ncurses based jabber clients | 08:27 |
| debCarlos | nickolaus: maybe in google :) | 08:27 |
| dexikiix | DozedOnLinux, what? | 08:28 |
| dexikiix | samples of what? | 08:28 |
| dstaley | Ok. So, I have a laptop running off an Ubuntu LiveCD. Thing is, I can use the laptops keyboard or mouse, but it is connected to my network. How can I remotely access it? | 08:28 |
| nickolaus | debcarlos yeah, ubuntu seems to be lagging in the Iphone/touch support. | 08:28 |
| ikonia | dstaley: ssh ? | 08:28 |
| DozedOnLinux | dexikiix: on how to extract tar.gz vs tar.bz2 ? | 08:28 |
| dstaley | ikonia: How would I even install the ssh server? | 08:28 |
| ikonia | DozedOnLinux: tar zxvf tar jxvf | 08:28 |
| ikonia | dstaley: open the package manager, install the openssh-server package | 08:29 |
| ikonia | dstaley: your package manager can be which ever package manager you most comfortable with | 08:29 |
| debCarlos | nickolaus: oh... ok... maybe google :D | 08:29 |
| murlidhar | ikonia: i actually tried center-im but could not connect to gtalk using jabber protocol . also i one more client called finch which is based pidgin is there but i don't know if it works . | 08:29 |
| rockenrola | timr92: what do you mean | 08:29 |
| timr92 | rockenrola: it dont work with diff kernel either :| | 08:29 |

| dexikiix | oh i only typed xvf | 08:29 |
| ikonia | murlidhar: jabber is not google talk, you need a client that supports the google talk protocol | 08:29 |
| dexikiix | i think thats what deb said | 08:29 |
| ikonia | dstaley: they don't work in ubuntu - or they don't work at all ? | 08:30 |
| debCarlos | dexikiix: Why don't you try to extract the file with graphic interface ? | 08:30 |
| jpds | ikonia: But Google Talk in XMPP aka Jabber. | 08:30 |
| dstaley | ikonia: They don't work at all. | 08:30 |
| kabotage | hi | 08:30 |
| timr92 | rockenrola: same stuff fails, system log daemon, avahi, clamd & freshclam | 08:30 |
| ikonia | jpds: yup, but not all jabber clients will connect with it | 08:30 |
| ikonia | dstaley: then you can't do anything, you have no input device and no ability to put an input device into your laptop | 08:31 |
| timr92 | rockenrola: looks nothing to do with wine anymore, lol. but still, my icons went like pics in ie that dont load when i did the thing with .wine | 08:31 |
| rockenrola | timr92: can you still go to a console: ctrl+alt+f1 ? | 08:31 |
| dstaley | ikonia: Correct. But, there must be a way I can somehow remotely access it. | 08:31 |
| murlidhar | does anybody know how to configure the cabber jabber client? | 08:31 |
| ikonia | dstaley: not if you can't install the packages to remotly access it | 08:31 |
| dstaley | Maybe a LiveCD that boots SSH? | 08:31 |
| murlidhar | it is universe repos | 08:31 |
| timr92 | rockenrola: do that when it is trying to boot? and in what kernel? | 08:31 |
| murlidhar | *in | 08:32 |
| ikonia | dstaley: a reasonable ammount of liveCD's will have ssh, however you'll need a dhcp server setup for that to work | 08:32 |
| rockenrola | timr92: reboot your pc in any kernel, let it fail, then try to get to a console | 08:32 |
| debCarlos | dexikiix: Did you extracted it already? | 08:32 |
| dstaley | ikonia: It's on my local network though, and it's already been assigned an IP that I can ping. | 08:32 |
| wols | dstaley: do you have a router? | 08:32 |
| dstaley | Wols: Yes. | 08:33 |

| debCarlos | dexikiix: any luck? | 08:38 |
| zcat[1] | DozedOnLinux: there is. On the desktop you doubleclick just about any archive and it opens in fileroller. That won't work if the file's been renamed to '.tar.tar' though.. just as a .zip in windows won't behave itself if someone renames it to .rar | 08:38 |
| dexikiix | debCarlos not really | 08:38 |
| timr92 | rockenrola: like, it was sitting there after i press ctrl alt f1, and it has finally asked me to login | 08:38 |
| DozedOnLinux | ikonia: i mean when you have to extract them, then have to deal with directory permissions, and the whole slew of things you have to do to compile them. | 08:39 |
| dexikiix | still trying to extract the file | 08:39 |
| DozedOnLinux | not so much extracting them or viewing them, | 08:39 |
| rockenrola | timr92: so, log in | 08:39 |
| dexikiix | I EXTRACTED IT :) | 08:39 |

| dexikiix | renamed it to something and ran the archiver | 08:40 |
| timr92 | rockenrola: oh, i cant ae, i forget. So i'm logged in as me, what do i do now? | 08:40 |
| dexikiix | its just plain .tar | 08:40 |
| debCarlos | dexikiix: lol | 08:40 |
| dexikiix | ok i really need web, listening to the same 4 .flac files over and over is annoying | 08:40 |
| DozedOnLinux | i must say, i do find this amusing :P | 08:40 |
| timr92 | rockenrola, uhm, it actually sez un able to cd to /home/timothy | 08:40 |
| rand0m- | zcat[1], yeah this one works if i just plug it in.. . it was working fine when i booted up after being in windows - and suddenly it stopped | 08:40 |
| zcat[1] | DozedOnLinux: 99.9% of the stuff most users need to install is in the repos and can be installed by ticking a box. 99% of the stuff most users need (like an office suite, or a photo editor, or a PDF viewer) comes preinstalled. | 08:41 |
| debCarlos | dexikiix: Now, in the terminal go to the folder you extracted | 08:41 |
| nickolaus | is there word when wine will support usb input? | 08:41 |
| dexikiix | ok | 08:41 |
| dexikiix | kmod libbcmcrypto.so nas WHERE_FROM wl | 08:41 |
| rockenrola | timr92: which directory are you in then? use "pwd" to find out | 08:41 |
| debCarlos | dexikiix: go to kmod | 08:41 |
| DozedOnLinux | zcat[1]: i prefer repos and debs. for sure, and yes a good majority of it is there. its the rare cases where you are left fumblimg through just to get something to work | 08:42 |

| lopezmatias_ | lol | 08:43 |
| timr92 | rockenrola, yes, it seems that way, lol. but yes i thought thats what i did. and its not like i used a command line to change permissions, so i couldn't have accidentally gone rm instead of chmod | 08:43 |
| nickolaus | ridethfire122 have you tried this on your other OS? | 08:43 |
| ridethefire122 | nickolaus: I am on xp at the moment | 08:43 |
| debCarlos | dexikiix: What does this command outputs: ls /lib/firmware ? | 08:44 |
| zcat[1] | DozedOnLinux: Most of the time when ppl ask me how to untar / compile something, it turns out that it's available in the repos but they never thought to look. Or worse, something that's already installed. | 08:44 |
| DozedOnLinux | zcat[1]: i disable all the repos that dont have "stable" releases, unless absolutely necessary to do otherwise. i only want stable/tested, i dont like the idea of being a test-rat | 08:44 |
| ridethefire122 | nickolaus: nothing is locking up here | 08:44 |
| debCarlos | wols: What's Ubuntu firmware directory? | 08:44 |
| debCarlos | *Which;s | 08:44 |
| dexikiix | debCarlos i have /lib/firmware/2.6.24-19-generic | 08:44 |
| nickolaus | ridethfire122 pm. | 08:44 |
| debCarlos | ok dexikiix, now type this: export FIRMWARE_INSTALL_DIR="/lib/firmware" | 08:45 |
| DozedOnLinux | zcat[1]: yeah, i check repos first off. then i move onto other methods. i hear what you are saying. they make it harder than it has to be | 08:45 |
| timr92 | rockenrola: in the root shell, what now? | 08:45 |
| dexikiix | debCarlos: no output | 08:45 |
| zcat[1] | like the guy that was reting to compile some experimental PDF reader he found because he couldn't open a PDF .. turned out the download was corrupted, we found the site again and got a good copy and evince handled it just fine... | 08:46 |
| zcat[1] | s/reting/trying/ | 08:46 |
| debCarlos | dexikiix: Ok, it should no output anything :). Now this: sudo b43-fwcutter -w "$FIRMWARE_INSTALL_DIR" wl_apsta.o | 08:46 |
| debCarlos | *not | 08:47 |
| dexikiix | from inside kmod or does it not matter? | 08:47 |
| zcat[1] | that was about the worst case I ever saw of someone doing things the hard way because he just expected Linux to be hard... | 08:47 |
| debCarlos | dexikiix: yeah, from inside kmod | 08:47 |
| debCarlos | dexikiix: it does matter a lot, wl_apsta.o is in kmod :D | 08:47 |
| rockenrola | timr92: well, lets chech if your home does exist | 08:48 |
| dexikiix | lots of "extracting....." no errors | 08:48 |
| debCarlos | dexikiix: Yes!! Now you should have it installed :D | 08:48 |
| dexikiix | :) | 08:49 |
| xintron_ | Setting up iptables to just listening on ports used, is that just as good as using firestarter? | 08:49 |
| timr92 | rockenrola: it does, i cd'd to id, and managed to see everything that should be there wid ls | 08:49 |
| dexikiix | now... wireless works? | 08:49 |
| === xintron_ is now known as xintron | ||
| dexikiix | lmao | 08:49 |
| debCarlos | dexikiix: It should :) | 08:49 |
| dexikiix | what do i do | 08:49 |
| dexikiix | its not automatically connecting i dont think | 08:49 |
| DozedOnLinux | zcat[1]: just the word "experiment" or "beta" scares the heck out of me :P this install of Ubuntu is prob my best, atleast i run into fewer problems than in 7.x, but then. it may be i am more used to it | 08:49 |
| dexikiix | is there some type of reset or..something? | 08:49 |
| debCarlos | dexikiix: no, go to network manager tray icon and click it, then selec the wireless network :D | 08:49 |
| timr92 | rockenrola: how to i check the permissions on it | 08:49 |
| rockenrola | timr92: use "ls -l" to check for permissions | 08:50 |
| timr92 | uh | 08:50 |
| dexikiix | its connected, but 0% | 08:50 |
| DozedOnLinux | dexikiix: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart | 08:51 |
| timr92 | rockenrola: i did it when i was in /home and it seems good | 08:51 |
| debCarlos | dexikiix: Well, at least it is working :D, maybe you're far from the router? | 08:51 |
| DozedOnLinux | dexikiix: then to see if connected > iwconfig | 08:51 |
| timr92 | rockenrola: my dir is owned by me, and the other one is owned by the other user | 08:51 |
| Adman65 | Anyone know why i would be able to ping one machine, but not the other machine won't ping back? | 08:51 |
| DozedOnLinux | dexikiix: if you got that far as to see wlan0/ath0/wifi0 then you are making progress | 08:51 |
| timr92 | rockenrola: and they are both, drw-r--r-- | 08:52 |

| DozedOnLinux | dexikiix: actually i get better speed on my linux install than my windows install, substantially better throughput. why ? dont really know, but i do | 08:54 |
| DozedOnLinux | dexikiix: i dont use ndis-wrapper so i cant say that is why | 08:54 |
| dexikiix | that network restart thing is just failing send_packets | 08:54 |
| preston | it seems as i save new tasks every 10th time or so evolution will close suddenly? | 08:55 |

| DozedOnLinux | dexikiix: the AP comes up with > iwconfig ? | 08:58 |

| i2adoo | Hello all. I am running ubuntu 8.04 on a Dell XPS 1130. Last night all was running ok, I shut it down in the proper manner. Today when I got home and tried starting it I got GRUB GRUB GRUB GRUB written all over my screen (and it seemed to be doing a loop of some sort). I searched the net for the error, cand't say I found anything similar. Any tips on what I did wrong, what happened and how I can fix it? | 09:28 |
| eko1 | debCarlos: great ^^ | 09:28 |
| Anon9335 | Leonid: just shoot yourself now !!! I don't think so, not in this universe | 09:28 |
| dexikiix | i2adoo do you dualboot windows? | 09:29 |

| dexikiix | dualboot anything? | 09:29 |
| i2adoo | I am only running ubuntu 8.04 on it | 09:29 |
| dexikiix | isnt grub for dual booting? | 09:29 |
| ghostlines | why wouldn't a user be in /etc/group but can still login? | 09:29 |
| Gustov | "you do not have the right gstreamer plugins installed, or that you don't have a sound card configured" | 09:30 |
| i2adoo | I do not know why I have grub, I think it's just a default boot loader for ubuntu? did not tamper with it | 09:30 |
| DozedOnLinux | dexikiix: that is mine, and it auto connects | 09:30 |

| gautam | dexikiix: people need to read the manual ;) | 09:41 |
| DozedOnLinux | dexikiix: try inserting irqpoll in your menu.list. do it from GRUB menu and choose (e)dit then (e)dit the generic , insert irqpoll at the very end (after splash) and hit (b) boot | 09:41 |
| debCarlos | dexikiix: When you set up all, linux is... easy :) | 09:41 |

| dexikiix | DozedOnLinux Grub menu? | 09:43 |
| DozedOnLinux | dexikiix: it is worth a shot, you have nothing to lose. once you find that is the issue(if you do) then edit your menu.list and make it permanent | 09:43 |
| DozedOnLinux | dexikiix: at BOOT the menu that gives you choice to boot OS | 09:43 |
| dexikiix | idk what irqpoll is or menu.list or anything | 09:43 |
| debCarlos | onefunk: I don't think you have to reconfigure all again if you do it with the update manager, if you do it cleanly.... different story | 09:43 |
| DozedOnLinux | dexikiix: pressing ESC will give you time to read it | 09:43 |
| Gustov | okay, I think I found what I need.. but I need the initial windows driver for my wireless card | 09:43 |

| dexikiix | ok | 09:44 |

| negge | mib: you need to mount the directory with credentials that have permissions to write to the directory | 09:55 |
| LSD|Ninja | Gustov: If you installed hte drivers that came with it under Windows then they'll usually rig the .INFs to put their name in device manager instead of the more important chipset name. ls{pci,usb} is usually pretty reliable at sniffing out what's what under Linux | 09:56 |
| greg__ | Thank You | 09:56 |
| murlidhar | greg__ why exactly do u want mid comm | 09:56 |
| Gustov | what is mc? | 09:56 |
| mib | im using something like mount -t cifs /mypath -o user= ,passwords= -o rw /mymountedpath | 09:56 |
| murlidhar | Gustov: midnight commander | 09:56 |
| Gustov | ahh, i just want to find out what my hardware is lol | 09:56 |

| Gustov | oh | 09:56 |
| ttt17 | in ubuntu the secondary dns is set to 0.0.0.0,is this right or should i change it | 09:56 |
| negge | mib: hmm that looks ok | 09:56 |
| mib | yeah | 09:56 |
| murlidhar | Gustov: type lshw | 09:56 |
| dexikiix | nope | 09:57 |
| debCarlos | eko1: Now, do a $ cd virtualbox and then press tab, it will complete the name, then enter | 09:57 |
| mib | but it doesnt allow me to | 09:57 |
| dexikiix | still doesnt connect :( | 09:57 |
| LSD|Ninja | mc rocks, it's a must install on every Unix-like I use (even OS X!) | 09:57 |
| negge | mib: have you checked the shared folders permission on Windows? The default is read-only for everyone | 09:57 |
| dexikiix | thanks guys but im gonna boot windows and wait til i get an ethernet cable and card | 09:57 |
| Gustov | thanks | 09:57 |
| murlidhar | dexikiix: doesnt ur wifi suuport linux | 09:57 |
| murlidhar | ? | 09:58 |
| debCarlos | dexikiix: Well... good idea, then you can use automatic tool for installing the wireless :D | 09:58 |
| LSD|Ninja | How do you build a computer without ethernet these days? pretty much every motherboard has it onboard now... | 09:58 |
| dexikiix | murlidhar, broadcom... | 09:58 |

| murlidhar | dexikiix: broadcom supports linux | 09:58 |

| dexikiix | lemme look... | 09:59 |
| robin_sz | hi, i have an instalh problem or two, from the hardy heron live CD thing ... im trying to install to disk, and it does that, but when I reboot all I get is "LI" .. i told it to use the entire disk ... | 09:59 |
| robin_sz | and i is there some way to tell Ubuntu to write over the mbr/ it seems to be leaving bits of the old Lilo lying about | 09:59 |
| debCarlos | eko1: in which folder are you? | 09:59 |
| dexikiix | oh | 09:59 |
| dexikiix | would ya look at that | 09:59 |
| dexikiix | right next to the USB ports, i got a little phone line plug with those 3 computers | 09:59 |
| dexikiix | what do you suppose that is? | 09:59 |

| sudobash | hey i am getting a dependency issue while trying to install xmms it is saying libglib isnt installed but i know it is... | 10:00 |
| Gustov | okay, I got the hardware info... now which would be my wireless card name? | 10:00 |
| murlidhar | dexikiix: maybe rj45 or could be normal modem port | 10:00 |
| eko1 | debCarlos: sorry which folder am i supposed to be in, i accidentally closed my last terminal window | 10:00 |
| Gustov | it's in a pci slot | 10:00 |
| robin_sz | negge, only 1 drive in the system | 10:00 |
| dexikiix | murlidhar is it ethernet? | 10:00 |
| LSD|Ninja | dexikiix: once you have ethernet connectivity getting those bcm things working is trivial | 10:00 |
| LSD|Ninja | Gustov: lspci | grep Ethernet | 10:01 |
| sudobash | also when I am in TightVNC it only give me a virutal terminal which is cool but All i have to do to get a slimmed version of X is to start up nautilus | 10:01 |
| debCarlos | eko1: Ok, no prob. You're supposed to be in /usr/src/ | 10:01 |
| dexikiix | one i have ethernet working, i wont care anymore | 10:01 |
| murlidhar | dexikiix: how many pins does it have] | 10:01 |
| * dexikiix looks | 10:01 | |
| negge | robin_sz: okay. Did all the installation steps finish successfully? | 10:01 |
| robin_sz | yes | 10:01 |
| LSD|Ninja | murlidhar: if it's on a PC mobo then it's almost certainly ethernet | 10:01 |
| negge | then I don't know... | 10:02 |
| sudobash | i can compile xmms from source instead of deb packages... maybe the glib is installed somewhere that xmms is not looking | 10:02 |
| dexikiix | 8 pins, it says AMP on the inside and 012800 outside the port | 10:02 |
| murlidhar | LSD|Ninja: or if it has 8pins then it is RJ45 :) | 10:02 |
| === freqk|away is now known as freqk | ||
| Gustov | hmmm.. still says marvell | 10:02 |
| robin_sz | negge, and I chose guided partitioning, use entire disk, and I did a sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda ns=512 count=1 to zap the mbr too | 10:03 |
| Gustov | I don't remember buying a marvell wireless card though | 10:03 |
| LSD|Ninja | murlidhar: onboard ethernet is a more likely possibility than an onboard modem | 10:03 |
| dexikiix | whats RJ45? | 10:03 |
| eko1 | debCarlos: hmm still saying no dir found when i try cd virtualbox from /usr/src | 10:03 |
| Gustov | thanks ninja btw | 10:03 |
| murlidhar | dexikiix: ethernet | 10:03 |
| dexikiix | oh | 10:03 |
| dexikiix | RJ45 = ethernet? | 10:03 |
| sudobash | lol | 10:03 |
| dexikiix | win | 10:03 |
| dexikiix | i dont need to go look through boxes and cartons for an ethernet PCI!!! | 10:03 |
| LSD|Ninja | US uses RJ 45 for the phones too, doesn't it? | 10:03 |
| negge | sudobash: use Audacious instead of XMMS, it's more up-to-date | 10:03 |
| dexikiix | yeah LSD | 10:03 |
| debCarlos | eko1: You have to type cd virtualbox and then press TAB, it will complete the name of the folder :D | 10:03 |
| sudobash | okay cool | 10:04 |
| LSD|Ninja | We use RJ-11 here | 10:04 |
| dexikiix | LSD|Ninja have i seen you on another server somewhere | 10:04 |
| sudobash | does anyone know of a msg command like write that works for X popup messages? | 10:04 |
| dexikiix | maybe globalgamers.net? | 10:04 |
| dexikiix | no | 10:04 |
| dexikiix | anthrochat? | 10:04 |
| LSD|Ninja | Still, on a PC mobo it's almost certainly of the ethernet variety | 10:04 |
| murlidhar | LSD|Ninja: rj-11 for ethernet? | 10:04 |
| eko1 | debCarlos: ooh ok sorry one sec | 10:04 |
| sudobash | maybe an apt-get i can use real quick to pop up a question or message | 10:04 |
| _trine | I have secpanel 0.5.4 installed but synaptic says it wants to install a newer version but its only 0.4.2 ; why should it want to do that? | 10:04 |
| LSD|Ninja | Gustov: you don't buy a 'Marvell' wireless card as such. Marvell sell the chips to other companies who put them on a card with a transceiver and then slap their name on it | 10:05 |
| dexikiix | LSD|Ninja ^^^ | 10:05 |
| Gustov | yeah, I just found d-link on it | 10:05 |
| murlidhar | dexikiix: why don't u take ur mobo two floors down and then try to set up the drivers for the wifi card | 10:05 |
| Gustov | now for the detective work... which is the name of the driver I am looking for | 10:06 |
| ttt17 | in ubuntu the secondary dns is set to 0.0.0.0,is this right or should i change it | 10:06 |
| LSD|Ninja | dexikiix: I don't think I'm on either of those servers. I am all over freenode though | 10:06 |
| Gustov | if I can get the windows edition I'm set | 10:06 |
| dexikiix | murlidhar cuz i can wait til i get home from work tomorrow instead and have an ethernet cable waiting for me | 10:06 |
| dexikiix | LSD|Ninja musta been something else then | 10:06 |
| dexikiix | im going to bed guys | 10:06 |

| concretesledge | murlidhar, still no result | 11:03 |
| Slart | Falstaff: if you want to run a command as root you put sudo in front of it | 11:03 |
| Slart | Falstaff: say you want to run.. chmod as root.. you'd type sudo chmod bla bla bla | 11:04 |
| MidnightJulia | Falstaff, You write "sudo whatevercommandyouwant" and then it asks for your password :) | 11:04 |
| murlidhar | concretesledge: did u do "make" and "sudo make install" | 11:04 |
| MidnightJulia | Falstaff, like "sudo apt-get install xchat" | 11:04 |
| Slart | Falstaff: if you want to run a gui program as root you use gksudo instead.. so to edit fstab (something only root normally can do) you'd run gksudo gedit /etc/fstab | 11:04 |
| concretesledge | murlidhar, no, for tvtime you mean? | 11:05 |
| Slart | !sudo | Falstaff | 11:05 |
| ubottu | Falstaff: 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) | 11:05 |
| murlidhar | concretesledge: leave it for the timebeing (tvtime) | 11:05 |

| concretesledge | :/ | 11:20 |
| murlidhar | concretesledge: restart the pc and then see | 11:20 |
| concretesledge | murlidhar, ok brb | 11:21 |
| Slart | blackpen: setting up a ubuntu gateway isn't that hard if you know what you're doing... it will take a little bit more time if you have to setup dhcp and such.. but less than a day for a reasonably experienced linux admin | 11:22 |
| Slart | blackpen: all depending on how complex the network is, of course | 11:22 |
| Slart | blackpen: I wouldn't say it's something you do on your lunch break though.. | 11:23 |
| negge | murlidhar: you should invest in a UPS | 11:23 |
| blackpen | slart: very simple. there is a router. and it has several machines hooked up to it. the ubuntu machine has a static ip and it's setup on the router to direct all traffic to that ip to the ubuntu machine. | 11:23 |
| db92 | on the ubuntu installer, i choose the keyboard layout, it tells me "starting the partitioner" or something like that and then all of a sudden it hangs. what gives? | 11:23 |
| murlidhar | negge: no UPS would give me 3 hours backup . plus i can't afford so much :/ | 11:23 |
| Slart | blackpen: sounds like you could replace the router with the ubuntu machine.. you'll need two nic's on the ubuntu machine afaik | 11:24 |
| Slart | !router | 11:24 |
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about router | 11:24 |
| negge | db92: I had that problem when tried installing Ubuntu for the first time. Turned out that my harddrives where to crappy or something, I had to unplug them all except the one I was installing to in order to get the partitioner up and running | 11:24 |
| blackpen | slart: ok, i already have two nics. | 11:24 |
| blackpen | only one is used though | 11:24 |
| db92 | negge :||||| | 11:24 |
| db92 | negge: cant be, they all worked perfectly at the first install | 11:24 |
| db92 | now im just reinstalling because i screwed up the ubuntu installation tons | 11:24 |
| negge | murlidhar: a car battery and a cheap inverter will do fine too. You can run a normal desktop computer (not a gaming monster rig) for atleast 6 hours on one charge | 11:25 |
| Slart | !ics | blackpen, here's some info | 11:25 |
| ubottu | blackpen, here's some info: If you want to share the internet connection of your ubuntu machine with other machines in the network see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetConnectionSharing - You may also use !firestarter: http://www.fs-security.com/docs/connection-sharing.php | 11:25 |
| negge | db92: okay | 11:25 |
| concretesledge | murlidhar, you there | 11:25 |
| murlidhar | concretesledge: yep | 11:25 |
| blackpen | Slart: i just thought of something.. does the router go before or after the ubuntu machine in this case? | 11:25 |
| db92 | not to mention that at first the livecd started to hang @ the part where it supposedly said "kernel loading" or whatever | 11:25 |
| Slart | blackpen: you can remove the router completely | 11:26 |
| concretesledge | murlidhar, it booted into low graphics mode, now my nvidia drivers are changed | 11:26 |
| negge | db92: have you checked the integrity of the disc? | 11:26 |
| murlidhar | negge: thanks may next year . i got my budget tight this year | 11:26 |
| negge | murlidhar: alright | 11:26 |
| blackpen | Slart: the router is wireless. and all the machines i want to monitor are on the wireless. | 11:26 |
| Slart | blackpen: many routers are actually low power computers with linux running | 11:26 |
| db92 | negge: no but it all worked perfectly on my other pc just yesterday :||||| | 11:26 |
| negge | db92: okay | 11:26 |
| Slart | blackpen: ah.. then you can put the ubuntu machine between the internet and the router | 11:26 |
| negge | db92: it just hangs or what? | 11:26 |
| murlidhar | concretesledge: hmm | 11:27 |
| db92 | hangs and then reboots the system automatically | 11:27 |
| negge | db92: you could try the alternate installer instead. That one usually works when the live CD doesn't... | 11:27 |
| db92 | i dont even know how i managed to boot into the livecd, it was "coincidential" | 11:27 |
| concretesledge | murlidhar, i saw something about this in that forum | 11:27 |
| db92 | wheres the alternate installer? :||| | 11:27 |
| blackpen | slart: so it goes ROUTER-->UBUNTU-->INTERNET?? | 11:27 |
| db92 | dont tell me thats yet another download :P | 11:27 |
| negge | db92: unfortunately yes. | 11:27 |
| Slart | blackpen: yes | 11:27 |
| db92 | gah | 11:27 |
| blackpen | Slart: and is it straight forward to do? | 11:27 |
| murlidhar | concretesledge: try the application that is something like nvidia-settings manager . i forget the name | 11:28 |
| Slart | blackpen: yes, you'll need to setup ip_forwarding (3 or 4 lines to run in a terminal) | 11:28 |
| Slart | blackpen: that's basically all | 11:28 |
| db92 | woot.... | 11:28 |
| blackpen | Slart: and does TCPDUMP have a gui? | 11:28 |
| db92 | it seems i found the wrong disk :|||| this one says its ubuntu 7.10 :/// | 11:28 |
| concretesledge | brb | 11:28 |
| Slart | blackpen: it's text based.. but there are other front ends and also other apps that do basically the same thing | 11:29 |
| blackpen | Slart: can you suggest any? im sorry about all th questions... but i need to get this working as quickly as possible as it's time sensitive. | 11:29 |
| Slart | blackpen: I've never had to do these kinds of things on my network.. tcpdump is the most common one.. ethereal/wireshark is another | 11:31 |
| blackpen | tcpdump is all command though? | 11:31 |
| db92 | awesome, i seem to have misplaced my 8.04 cd ;_; | 11:31 |
| Slart | blackpen: yes.. perhaps ksniffer is easier to use.. worth a try | 11:31 |
| db92 | can the livecd burn cds if the burner is another drive? :P | 11:31 |

| [z]neo | can someone give or suggest any free rar opener? | 11:38 |
| i2adoo | though it probably is my faulty memory, prolly asked myself the same question then and got a 32bit one | 11:38 |

| concretesledge | murlidhar, now my display is screwed up.. disabled the driver.. but now my res is like 400 x 600 | 11:43 |
| tillux1 | heya | 11:43 |
| tillux1 | is there a way to disable pulseAudio without breaking the whole bunch of soundapps? | 11:43 |
| xnv | [z]neo: Then use Synaptic | 11:43 |
| tillux1 | cause I'm using the m-audio delta audiophile 2496, which doesn't work with pulseaudio | 11:44 |
| murlidhar | concretesledge: hhmmm .type xrandr | 11:44 |
| Chris| | tillux1, the way i disabled pulseaudio is i went to system > preferences > sound then switch all the drop down boxes to alsa | 11:44 |
| tillux1 | well, I think I could purge pulseaudio and the audio-apps and compile them all myself... | 11:44 |
| concretesledge | murlidhar, yep.. | 11:44 |
| murlidhar | damie: by default all ntfs drives can be accessed by ubuntu | 11:45 |
| concretesledge | murlidhar, only very large res | 11:45 |
| tillux1 | Chris|: well... yes, but then sound-apps like audacity etc won't work | 11:45 |
| tillux1 | and these are the ones I need most (running ubuntuStudio) | 11:45 |
| murlidhar | concretesledge: does it show any res supported by the card | 11:45 |
| tillux1 | or linuxsampler... :/ | 11:45 |
| concretesledge | murlidhar, no. ;/ | 11:45 |
| Chris| | tillux1, then in audiacity's settings switch it to use alsa plugin? (i might be wrong but i had to do this with beep-media-player) | 11:45 |
| afloofloo | if i created a sparse file with dd, can i somehow change the "maximum" size of this file later on? | 11:46 |
| murlidhar | concretesledge: change the resolution to xrandr -s 1024x800 or whatever u want | 11:46 |
| EF_Codd | If I get good enough at Ubuntu, should i move up to Debian? | 11:47 |
| concretesledge | murlidhar, didnt work | 11:48 |
| murlidhar | concretesledge: or u can change it from system>administration> | 11:48 |
| EF_Codd | I'll be needing an answer. Thank you. | 11:48 |
| tillux1 | Chris|: (it is going to lag) however, that's not the point... all audio apps use pulseaudio, and I don't want to use it, as it simply doesn't work with my soundcard (see Bug 228875 and Bug 178442 in launchpad) | 11:48 |

| EF_Codd | Slart excellent! | 11:48 |
| EF_Codd | Slart i assume level 3 would be a BSD | 11:48 |
| murlidhar | concretesledge: i don't use gnome or kde . so therefore i am not sure where exactly it can be changed . just search it up . | 11:48 |
| concretesledge | murlidhar, the only biggest option is 640 x 800 .. or something | 11:49 |
| Slart | EF_Codd: no.. debian and ubuntu are different.. not levels above or under each other | 11:49 |
| Slart | EF_Codd: find a system you like, that you understand and can work with. | 11:49 |
| EF_Codd | Slart you don't say | 11:49 |
| concretesledge | murlidhar, ahh.. ok | 11:49 |
| murlidhar | concretesledge: u need to change the drivers | 11:49 |
| concretesledge | murlidhar, everything is HUGE | 11:49 |
| EF_Codd | Slart like, i'm allowed to recompile my kernel with one, and not the other | 11:49 |
| guido79 | Hi guys, I'm forced to add a second system to my ubuntu laptop. The system I need is an rpm-based distro. I've been provided with a two-dvd set for a Fedora 7 distro with custom packages added. The situation of my disk is: Ubuntu - free spage (many GBs) - ntfs data. Any suggestions for the installation / boot configuration ? Thanks ! | 11:49 |
| Slart | EF_Codd: I don't think there is a system that doesn't allow you to compile your own kernels.. (perhaps windows).. some encourage it more than others though | 11:50 |
| murlidhar | concretesledge: if u need to drag any window try holding alt button and move it with the mouse . | 11:50 |
| murlidhar | concretesledge: u will find it easier | 11:50 |
| murlidhar | to manage | 11:50 |
| EF_Codd | guido79 why do you think you need an rpm distro? | 11:50 |
| guido79 | EF_Codd in order to install ltib. | 11:50 |
| EF_Codd | Slart ah, i should have put 'allowed' in '' ... what I mean is, ask about re-compiling here and see the response | 11:50 |
| guido79 | I've tried in many ways on ubuntu, but lots of trouble keep popping up... | 11:51 |

| xnv | guido79: I'll take that as a no | 11:52 |

| shesek | Flannel, so how can I really check that ? | 11:54 |

| EF_Codd | guido79 create an rpm package .. compile yourself ... want any more answers? | 11:57 |

| bazhang | guido79, what are you trying to accomplish | 11:57 |
| shesek | EF_Codd, ok, cool | 11:57 |
| shesek | I see swap isnt being used at all | 11:57 |
| guido79 | bazhang installing ltib and getting it 100% reliable. | 11:57 |
| shesek | is that ok? | 11:57 |
| EF_Codd | shesek anyway, don't worry. The kernel attempts to keep this slightly above zero by keeping the cache as large as possible. This is a feature not a bug. | 11:57 |
| Flannel | shesek: yeah, swap is slow. It won't use it unless it has to. | 11:58 |
| shesek | Flannel, thank you too | 11:58 |
| alraune | shesek: if you got lots of ram | 11:58 |
| EF_Codd | shesek no probs, it's a question that comes up regularly | 11:58 |

| EF_Codd | KEBA what is kontexmenu? | 12:01 |
| guido79 | wols there's no ltib on debian. | 12:01 |
| wols | EF_Codd: he means the right click popup from fluxbox | 12:01 |
| guido79 | That's why i need fedora. | 12:01 |
| EF_Codd | guido79 can't ltib be built from source? | 12:02 |
| EF_Codd | wols ah, well that ain't hard | 12:02 |

| guido79 | EF_Codd no, there's no source in the project page. | 12:03 |

| kindofabuzz | can you not resize with cfdisk? | 12:25 |

| wols | kindofabuzz: no. only gparted can do that | 12:25 |
| Csledge | wols, /v4l_drv. that v4l was the driver for the tvtuner | 12:25 |
| Ayabara | I agree with the "friends don't let friends use wmv". Can someone recommend a tool I should use for transcoding my wmv videos to other formats? Should I do it in Windows to get better quality (because of a better wmv codec)? | 12:25 |

| m4lmsteen | i'm installing ubuntu to run via terminal ive noticed 'apt-get' seems to depend on the cdrom a lot for package getting... will i be able to leave the cd in, does the ubuntu install screen have a time out ? | 12:30 |
| ActionParsnip | m4lmsteen: remove the cd from your repositories | 12:31 |
| guido79 | Guys, the distro with the preinstalled ltib has been provided me as a vmware image ! So, know anything about some vmware server for ubuntu ? | 12:31 |
| m4lmsteen | ActionParsnip... would you mind helping me with that ? | 12:31 |
| wols | m4lmsteen: edit your sources.list and remove the cdrom entries there. then apt-get won't ask for the cd anymore | 12:31 |
| Csledge | wosl, let me refrase, what program should i edit this file with | 12:31 |
| MiraiWarren0_0 | Hi. A weird thing happened when I copied my ubuntu partition... | 12:31 |
| jork | wich distro of linux is best ? | 12:31 |
| ActionParsnip | !vmware | guido79 | 12:31 |
| ubottu | guido79: VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player", only for Feisty and Edgy), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. Instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers | 12:31 |
| ActionParsnip | jork: depends on needs | 12:31 |
| wols | Csledge: your favourite editor. console or X? | 12:31 |
| wols | !best | jork | 12:31 |
| ubottu | jork: 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. | 12:31 |
| ActionParsnip | m4lmsteen: gksu synaptic | 12:32 |
| jork | ok | 12:32 |
| jork | sorry | 12:32 |
| db92 | wols: all of a sudden, i just launched the installer and it all worked :\ | 12:32 |
| bazhang | jork, please chat about this in #ubuntu-offtopic | 12:32 |
| ActionParsnip | m4lmsteen: its in there if you modify sources | 12:32 |
| guido79 | Ok, thanks ! | 12:32 |
| Csledge | wols, ok im at line 48 i can just change it? to whatever i want? | 12:32 |
| m4lmsteen | ok... ill check it out... im updating the system right now | 12:32 |
| ActionParsnip | jork: if there was a @best@ we'd all use it | 12:32 |
| m4lmsteen | soon as this is done ill give it a go | 12:32 |
| MiraiWarren0_0 | Now when I boot, the kernel of the original is used but the root filesystem is from the copy. | 12:32 |
| wols | Csledge: you can change it to what your monitor actually supports | 12:32 |
| Csledge | sudo edit Xorg.conf | 12:33 |

| m4lmsteen | Csledge are you having a problem with xserver not starting ? | 12:33 |
| wols | MiraiWarren0_0: you need to configure grub correctly | 12:33 |
| ActionParsnip | Csledge: try gksu gedit xorg.conf | 12:33 |
| ActionParsnip | Csledge: dont sudo for gui apps | 12:33 |
| Csledge | ActionParsnip, im in konsole | 12:33 |
| kindofabuzz | how do i list the size of a folder? | 12:33 |
| wols | MiraiWarren0_0: pastbein your menu.lst | 12:33 |
| wols | kindofabuzz: man du | 12:34 |
| MiraiWarren0_0 | wols: I thought that might be it, something with the root command, but I am not sure what. | 12:34 |
| Slart | kindofabuzz: "du" is one command | 12:34 |
| ActionParsnip | Csledge: fine :) just checkin | 12:34 |
| kindofabuzz | k | 12:34 |
| Csledge | ActionParsnip, im in konsole, is this a GUI | 12:34 |
| wols | MiraiWarren0_0: close. it's the # groot one | 12:34 |
| ActionParsnip | Csledge: no, sudo all the way | 12:34 |
| ActionParsnip | Csledge: sudo nano xorg.conf | 12:34 |
| Slart | kindofabuzz: there is a gui app too.. something like disk usage analyzer or something | 12:34 |
| Csledge | ActionParsnip, ok ty | 12:34 |
| * ActionParsnip loves nano | 12:34 | |
| Csledge | wols, ok the Virtual 640 x 480 | 12:35 |
| m4lmsteen | i like pico lol | 12:35 |
| wols | MiraiWarren0_0: what device is your new copy on and what is in your menu.lst | 12:35 |
| cary | how do i gain root so i can see a ntfs drive on my computer | 12:35 |
| wols | MiraiWarren0_0: pico is non-free and discontinued. doesn't exist anymore | 12:35 |
| Csledge | wols, ok the Virtual 640 x 480 , so i change that to the highest res my monitor can support, correct, then what about line 49 | 12:35 |
| cary | i keep reading and nothing helps | 12:35 |
| wols | cary: you can't. there is no root | 12:35 |
| Slart | cary: you should be able to see your ntfs-drives even without being root | 12:35 |
| ActionParsnip | cary: you dont need root to see it | 12:35 |
| wols | cary: you need to mount the ntfs drive correctly (uid gid and umask options). then you can read and use the partition as a normal user | 12:36 |
| cary | i can see them but to open them i need root it says | 12:36 |
| ActionParsnip | !ntfs-3g | cary | 12:36 |
| ubottu | cary: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions | 12:36 |

| ra21vi | where is the tnsnames.ora after I installed the oracle client.. I could not *find* it and now I want to create a fresh one.. pleae let me knwo the path | 12:36 |
| Csledge | i have 24 inch monitor, i think its 2000 something x 1080 maybe???? | 12:36 |
| wols | ra21vi: ask oracle, not us | 12:36 |
| cary | i did sudo apt get sux and it says authentication failed when i put in my password for root | 12:36 |
| Slart | cary: sudo asks for your *user* password.. not root password | 12:36 |
| wols | cary: there is no root password. so you cannot put in a password that does not exist | 12:36 |
| ra21vi | hmm ok | 12:36 |
| ActionParsnip | cary: then you are using the wrong password, check capslock or stuck shift ket | 12:36 |
| ActionParsnip | key* | 12:36 |
| cary | i already did the ntfs-3g and did not get any where | 12:37 |
| wols | cary: how did you mount the partition? | 12:37 |
| MiraiWarren0_0 | wols: Well, the new copy is on /dev/sda5 the original is /dev/sda6 | 12:37 |
| ActionParsnip | cary: thats how you write to the drive | 12:37 |
| wols | MiraiWarren0_0: and you want everything to use the new one? then do what I asked of you | 12:37 |
| Csledge | wols, or is it my graphics card that determins that | 12:37 |
| MiraiWarren0_0 | wols: What's that? | 12:37 |
| m4lmsteen | anyone here in use virtual machine ? | 12:37 |
| wols | Csledge: no | 12:37 |
| wols | MiraiWarren0_0: what is what? | 12:37 |
| Csledge | wols, my monitor? | 12:37 |
| wols | !anyone | m4lmsteen | 12:38 |
| ubottu | m4lmsteen: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 12:38 |
| wols | Csledge: monitor and card together | 12:38 |
| MiraiWarren0_0 | wols: What you asked of me | 12:38 |
| m4lmsteen | that is my real question | 12:38 |
| m4lmsteen | lol | 12:38 |
| bazhang | m4lmsteen, please ask; many here do | 12:38 |
| wols | MiraiWarren0_0: scroll up. I won't write it a third time | 12:38 |
| m4lmsteen | ok | 12:38 |
| m4lmsteen | how does virtual machine do running windows games ? | 12:38 |
| junkY_San | hi, i'm trying to install (k)ubuntu on a 2gb hd. is it possible to select packages during installation? | 12:38 |
| ActionParsnip | m4lmsteen: badly | 12:39 |
| wols | m4lmsteen: badly | 12:39 |
| bazhang | m4lmsteen, it does not at the moment | 12:39 |
| jork | :D | 12:39 |
| bazhang | m4lmsteen, try wine instead | 12:39 |
| ActionParsnip | m4lmsteen: get wine or buy cedega | 12:39 |
| jork | try wit wine | 12:39 |
| soundray | e | 12:39 |
| MiraiWarren0_0 | wols: Use groot? | 12:39 |
| Slart | junkY_San: I don't know if the minimal install might be something for you | 12:39 |
| wols | m4lmsteen: and you lied. your real question was about the windows games | 12:39 |
| Slart | !minimal | junkY_San | 12:39 |
| ubottu | junkY_San: 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 | 12:39 |
| wols | MiraiWarren0_0: in the end yes among other things, but since you have no clue how, do what I told you | 12:39 |
| m4lmsteen | wols sorry lol, it was a real question.. just leading into the REAL one ok i admit it | 12:39 |
| m4lmsteen | lol | 12:39 |

| bullgard4 | wols: Before I pposted here I did search in packages.ubuntu.com. In packages.ubuntu.com there are no manuals listed. | 12:53 |
| bullgard4 | ActionParsnip: Please re-read the question which I have put and do'nt tell me things about tab completion which I already know. | 12:54 |

| Sherminator | http://mibssam.free.fr | 12:54 |
| ActionParsnip | bullgard4: then why ask me to elaborate on something you already knew | 12:54 |
| wols | bullgard4: there are. tons of manpages if you know how to search. apt-file is probably better suited to this search however | 12:54 |
| scribawf | where in fstab (on line) do I put "user" to obtain volume/mount privilges? | 12:54 |
| ActionParsnip | !rar | t3d | 12:54 |
| ubottu | t3d: 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 | 12:54 |
| Csledge | i know that isnt the max.. but hopefully it can work for now | 12:55 |
| bullgard4 | wols: Your general statement is wrong in the particular case which I have risen in my question. | 12:55 |
| Csledge | wols, you said only change line 48 | 12:55 |
| bazhang | bullgard4, please come to #ubuntu-offtopic | 12:55 |
| wols | Csledge: no. I said more than that | 12:55 |

| LItomoSilver | I'm running Ubuntu 8.04. With Fluxbox installed. | 13:02 |
| db92 | LItomoSilver, brief me up, i know a bit of stuff about sound | 13:02 |

| Csledge | wols, no. | 13:02 |
| LItomoSilver | No sounds at all and I've noticed that while I have a Creative Soundblaster card, it is showing as... Ensoniq. Something like that. | 13:02 |
| Csledge | wols, i simply changed the config file, now what do i do, i dont want to mess anything else up | 13:03 |
| wols | restart X | 13:03 |

| wolfeySI | hello is there a way to get newest amsn through ubuntu package? | 13:03 |
| LItomoSilver | I have disabled the onboard audio, which is Intel because I cannot get direct access to the sound port. | 13:03 |

| ActionParsnip | kelvin911: how do you mean? | 13:05 |
| kelvin911 | amsn said it has new version | 13:05 |
| scribawf | alraune; during gedit (usking) gksu wouldn't allow me to save changes, where am I lost in this process? | 13:05 |
| remoteCTR1 | what service do i have to install in order to have the system update date and time over the internet? | 13:05 |

| remoteCTR1 | wols: thanks! | 13:06 |
| wolfeySI | soundray: this is kind of 'urgent' | 13:06 |
| ActionParsnip | alraune: use gksu for gui apps like gedit, not sudo | 13:06 |
| kelvin911 | what is the command? | 13:06 |
| kelvin911 | sudo apt-get upgrade amsn ?? | 13:06 |
| ActionParsnip | kelvin911: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get upgrade | 13:06 |
| wolfeySI | soundray: i can compile it manually | 13:06 |
| LItomoSilver | kelvin911: try sudo apt-get upgrade | 13:06 |
| wolfeySI | soundray: but not all can | 13:07 |
| scribawf | alraune; OK uh I would think I should know that! Still lost in syntax after Win | 13:07 |
| soundray | wolfeySI: there isn't even an upstream fix for that, as far as I can tell | 13:07 |
| kelvin911 | nothing to upgrade | 13:07 |
| LItomoSilver | I'll remember that particular command for Fluxbuntu, since it hasn't been updated to 8.04. | 13:07 |
| wolfeySI | soundray: #amsn says 0.97.2 helps with connection problems | 13:07 |
| wolfeySI | soundray: ubuntu has 0.97.0 | 13:07 |
| ActionParsnip | kelvin911: then download the .deb from amsns website | 13:07 |
| alraune | ActionParsnip: scribawf: alraune; during gedit (usking) gksu wouldn't allow me to save changes, where am I lost in this process? | 13:07 |
| kelvin911 | can i sudo apt-get install amsn? | 13:08 |
| ActionParsnip | kelvin911: yes | 13:08 |
| soundray | kelvin911: sure, but you will get version 0.97.0 | 13:08 |
| alraune | scribawf: when saved n closed, : mount -a | 13:08 |
| kelvin911 | i hae 0.97 | 13:08 |
| ActionParsnip | alraune: sudo doesnt set up the environment for gui apps and can harm permissions and ownership | 13:08 |

| wolfeySI | kelvin911: i've been trying to connect for over an hour now with it | 13:08 |

| ActionParsnip | kelvin911: id download the deb from amsn's site | 13:09 |
| kelvin911 | also pidgin cant send file to my friend anymore, how to fix that? | 13:09 |
| ActionParsnip | alraune: yes, for any file | 13:09 |
| scribawf | alraune; working on gedit to fstab now will do after close/saving fstab? is that correct? | 13:09 |
| ActionParsnip | kelvin911: update pidgin | 13:09 |
| LItomoSilver | Wouldn't sudo necessarily override any permissions and ownerships? | 13:09 |
| kelvin911 | how to update pidgin? | 13:09 |
| ActionParsnip | wols: you got that link on sudo for gui apps please | 13:10 |

| r4b | should I assume the largest (sda2 76873 MB) is XP and resize it? | 13:27 |
| Indoctrine | Ew, it makes me look like a huge Intel fan. | 13:27 |
| wols | r4b: no. boot XP and check which one is which | 13:27 |
| DRebellion | r4b, sda1/2 is the first hard drive, sdb is the second hard drive. | 13:28 |

| alraune | Indoctrine: sudo apt-get remove amarok && apt-get install amarok && apt get update && apt get upgrade | 13:29 |
| r4b | can i assume sdb1, 4026 mb is my 4GB usb drive? | 13:29 |
| alraune | r4b: yup | 13:30 |
| Indoctrine | Btw, alraune I installed VLC today and it freezes | 13:30 |
| DRebellion | r4b, i would say that sda2 is your windows install. | 13:30 |
| alraune | Indoctrine: updated/-grated system ? | 13:30 |
| Indoctrine | alraune: What does that mean? -.- | 13:30 |
| DRebellion | r4b, just mount it and take a look. | 13:30 |

| Kardoso | I want to install Ubuntu to my old computer, because that computer is unusable now from the lot of viruses. Config: 1 GB RAM, 5 GB free space, very slow videocard.

| newbe1 | Need a question answered about xubuntu Anyone Thanks Private Message Me | 13:36 |
| kindofabuzz | cary: you may not have the right permissions in windows if copying to windows | 13:36 |
| histo | kindofabuzz: the only reason to keep it seperate is so that it won't fill up / | 13:36 |
| ikonia | newbe1: ask in the channel rather than people pm'ing you | 13:36 |
| vozniakBR | Kardoso: xubuntu of course | 13:36 |
| Indoctrine | Kardoso: Probably Xubuntu, smaller and requires less resources. | 13:36 |
| newbe1 | I did No reply | 13:36 |
| alraune | Indoctrine: try : sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras && apt-get install linux-ubuntu-modules-$(uname -r) | 13:36 |
| cary | its not allowing m eto mount the drive | 13:36 |
| ikonia | newbe1: then be patient | 13:36 |

| ikonia | newbe1: ask the question | 13:37 |
| Kardoso | VozniakBR, Indoctrine: Thanks. I will try | 13:37 |
| ikonia | cary: what command are you trying to use ? | 13:37 |
| kenkku | Kardoso: what cpu does it have? a slow video card doesn't really make it necessary to use xubuntu | 13:37 |
| kindofabuzz | cary: do it through linux: http://lifehacker.com/392336/stream-music-from-ubuntu-to-an-xbox-360 | 13:37 |
| cary | and then send my files to where i can convert them to hd and watch them on 360 | 13:37 |
| alraune | Indoctrine: try : freezing is not a codec problem... | 13:37 |
| kenkku | Kardoso: if it has 1 GB of ram, it will probably run ubuntu quite well | 13:37 |
| Kardoso | kenkku: Intel Celeron 4,00 Ghz | 13:37 |
| ikonia | cary: what command are you trying to use | 13:37 |
| kindofabuzz | you think only windows can do it or something? | 13:37 |
| vozniakBR | Kardoso: ubuntu will run fine in this machine, but disk space are critical there. | 13:37 |
| cary | well i tried sux | 13:37 |
| Indoctrine | Well I have restricted extras. | 13:37 |
| ikonia | cary: I'm not aware of a command called "sux" | 13:37 |
| Kardoso | kenkku: I worry about the winchester. Its very very slow. | 13:37 |
| kindofabuzz | sux lol | 13:37 |
| kindofabuzz | try sudo | 13:38 |
| kenkku | Kardoso: winchester? | 13:38 |
| ikonia | cary: why are you using an X11 session controller ? | 13:38 |
| kelvin911 | how to make amsn use different pic for different account? | 13:38 |

| kindofabuzz | cary: http://lifehacker.com/392336/stream-music-from-ubuntu-to-an-xbox-360 | 13:38 |
| alraune | Indoctrine: is it a desktop or laptop ? | 13:38 |
| kelvin911 | amsn always uses the picture from the previous login account | 13:38 |
| kenkku | Kardoso: I'm sorry, I didn't understand what you mean by that | 13:38 |
| Indoctrine | alraune: Laptop | 13:38 |
| cary | i tried i just want to dual boot so i can have everything to sell | 13:38 |

| === [ID]-70 is now known as georgezl | ||
| ikonia | cary: your not making any sense | 13:39 |
| alraune | Indoctrine: when did you install hardy ? | 13:39 |
| vozniakBR | kenkku: winchester = hard disk | 13:39 |
| cary | linux is my personal workshop but windows has goood stuff for other people | 13:39 |
| Indoctrine | alraune: I'm running off a portable HD if that helps. Probably a week and a half ago | 13:39 |
| Kardoso | kenkku: because its five years old | 13:39 |
| ikonia | cary: do you have a question, yes or no ? | 13:39 |
| kenkku | vozniakBR: woot, cool, in what language? :D | 13:39 |
| Prophion | hello | 13:39 |
| kindofabuzz | cary: so what's your question? lol | 13:39 |
| kenkku | Kardoso: I would doubt that it matters that much. five years is fairly old though | 13:39 |
| cary | yea i tried ntfs-g and it still would not allow me to gain access to the ntfs drive | 13:40 |
| vozniakBR | kenkku: i don't know, its a old term | 13:40 |
| ikonia | cary: what command did you use ? | 13:40 |
| Kardoso | Kenkku: I think too. But Linux is the last way to make it usable. | 13:40 |

| adi_smg | g | 13:41 |
| Indoctrine | alraune: Did that, Amarok has decided to freeze again | 13:41 |
| Kardoso | Kenkku: Should I try Xubuntu then? | 13:41 |
| alraune | Indoctrine: the files you try to play, aare they on that external drive ? tried a cd instaed ? | 13:41 |
| kenkku | Kardoso: I don't think you'd lose much even if you did use xubuntu instead of ubuntu | 13:41 |
| Indoctrine | alraune: They're in /home/beck/music/ So yes. On the drive. | 13:41 |
| Indoctrine | alraune: I don't... think I have any CDs laying around. | 13:42 |
| utnubudnai | hey all,can .pl files accept argument from a terminal? | 13:42 |
| kenkku | Kardoso: you can always make it into an ubuntu if you like | 13:42 |
| ikonia | utnubudnai: depends on the script | 13:42 |
| Kardoso | Kenkku: Ok, thanks. | 13:42 |
| alraune | Indoctrine: did you check the ubu-installer cd for defects ? | 13:42 |
| utnubudnai | ikonia, is $ARGV[1] right? | 13:42 |
| happynobita | hmm, browsing the forums and can't really find a similar problem. gonna try the alternate install. i think the ram on the laptop is around 256. is this too low for ubuntu? | 13:42 |
| ikonia | utnubudnai: that means nothing | 13:43 |
| Kardoso | Kenkku: Has Xubuntu any remote desktop servers? I want to connect to it from remote. | 13:43 |
| Indoctrine | alraune: When I burned it in PowerISO on Windows, I got it to check the disc, I also burned at lowest speed to make sure it was accurate. | 13:43 |

| Indoctrine | Don't ask to ask | 13:43 |
| wols | happynobita: use xubunut. even if it does work you won't be happy | 13:43 |
| utnubudnai | so ikonia ,what should i do to get an argument from a console? | 13:43 |

| C0p3rn1c | I've bin trying to fix my usb support for weeks now, can somebody help me please?(detailed description: http://paste.ubuntu.com/34410/) | 13:44 |
| ikonia | utnubudnai: write a script that takes input from the console | 13:44 |
| utnubudnai | i mean what should the script be like? | 13:44 |
| ikonia | utnubudnai: depends on what your writing | 13:44 |
| utnubudnai | ikonia, I mean how | 13:44 |
| r4b | ok, i ran gparted instead of using the installer's partitoner. It's installing now. Ty for the help | 13:44 |
| ikonia | utnubudnai: you want to do this in perl ? | 13:44 |
| Kardoso | Does Xubuntu supports the pendrives and USB based hard disk (mobile HDD) ? | 13:44 |
| alraune | Indoctrine: did you check the ubu-installer cd for defects ? the option when booting cd ? | 13:44 |
| newbe1 | OK I have two tabs showing in the task bar at the bottom of the screen when i open a program | 13:44 |
| ikonia | utnubudnai: there are various guides on the internet on basics of perl | 13:44 |
| Indoctrine | alraune: No, but as I said, it was working just fine a couple of days ago | 13:44 |
| utnubudnai | ikonia, yes,I have to do this under perl! | 13:44 |
| unop | utnubudnai, in perl you check the @ARGV array | 13:45 |
| ikonia | utnubudnai: ok, check the guides/docs/forums for perl, there is tons of info out there | 13:45 |
| C0p3rn1c | Kardoso: I don't know about xubuntu but ubuntu does | 13:45 |
| kenkku | Kardoso: you can install the same programs in xubuntu as you can in ubuntu | 13:45 |
| ikonia | newbe1: ok ? | 13:45 |
| Indoctrine | alraune: And this was only a transient problem in the past few days that could be fixed by rebooting. Rebooting doesn't work now | 13:45 |
| wols | Kardoso: of course it does | 13:45 |

| ikonia | newbe1: ok - why is that a problem ? | 13:54 |
| anticraptastic | alraune, restarting and ill brb to let you know if that couldve possibly been the issue :| | 13:54 |
| soundray | C0p3rn1c: are you running Ubuntu natively, or in VMware or something like that? | 13:54 |
| newbe1 | ikonia why two of the same program | 13:55 |
| C0p3rn1c | soundray: natively | 13:55 |
| ikonia | newbe1: are you double clicking the program to start it ? | 13:55 |
| newbe1 | ikonia no | 13:55 |
| azharcs | guys need help with restoring panels in Ubuntu 8.04 | 13:56 |
| ikonia | newbe1: so your single clicking a program and it's opening 2 applications ? | 13:56 |
| C0p3rn1c | does my config look ok? because it has bin a while sins I messed around with linux | 13:56 |
| C0p3rn1c | kinda flying blind here =) | 13:56 |
| soundray | C0p3rn1c: there are two things I would suggest: 1) look in the BIOS setup for any USB-related settings. Some have a toggle called "legacy mode" or similar. Change that and see if it helps. 2) If not, spend 5 or 10 Euros on a four-port PCI USB card and disable your motherboard USB. | 13:56 |
| azharcs | Ubuntu is not showing panels and other GUI stuff but i can access CLI | 13:57 |
| newbe1 | ikonia gnome works ok | 13:57 |

| kunwon1 | ikonia, I'm looking for the new default wallpaper in hardy | 14:02 |
| chrislees | soundray: Wicked, I gather Ubuntu would just see this as a direct connection to the second router? | 14:02 |

| kunwon1 | ikonia, I want to get it without installing hardy :D | 14:02 |

| fiXXXerMet | How can I display workspace #2 on a second monitor? | 14:05 |
| chimaera | Hi, anyone using a powerbook? i have trouble getting frequency-scaling to ork properly. | 14:05 |
| ikonia | fiXXXerMet: switchers doesnt work like that | 14:05 |
| fiXXXerMet | ikonia: what do you mean? | 14:05 |
| ikonia | chimaera: as in PPC or intel | 14:05 |
| earthian | Hello, I have at last made compiz start by disabling the composite extension of the Metacity! Now is the question when I restart, I want compiz to take care of the eyecandy and not metacity. Where do I turn off the composition in metacity? and where should I add "compiz --replace" to autostart it at startup? | 14:05 |
| shaft | Hi | 14:06 |
| ikonia | fiXXXerMet: workspaces are tied to an X server normally, if you run a second Xserver for your other monitor, you'll have worksapces 1-4 for that monitor | 14:06 |
| alraune | alraune is off for food (Indoctrine) | 14:06 |
| chimaera | ikonia: as in ppc | 14:06 |
| fiXXXerMet | ikonia: Oh I see | 14:06 |
| r4b | hey guys, just to let you know my dual boot is working fine :D Thanks for the help | 14:06 |
| ikonia | chimaera: thats a shame, scaling in PPC has had issues in the past, I'm not sure of the current status of it | 14:06 |
| Indoctrine | earthian: I can answer your last question. Open up Sessions in Preferences and enter "Compiz" as one of the start up programs | 14:06 |
| * paper8 is now away: Off | 14:07 | |
| chimaera | ikonia: well, i can comment some lines of the init-script (powernowd), but i still have to unload/reload powernowd to get scaling to work. | 14:07 |
| ikonia | !away > paper8 | 14:07 |
| ubottu | paper8, please see my private message | 14:07 |
| soundray | earthian: normally you switch to compiz permanently by enabling Visual Effects through System-Preferences-Appearance | 14:07 |
| === Kagee is now known as LilleBot | ||
| earthian | soundray, I did not switch it there, I rather run it in terminal. The system-preferences-appearance shows it as turned on now but not previously. I will try this tho. Thanks. | 14:08 |
| shaft | Can i ask one question ? | 14:08 |
| lappy198 | Is it just me, or doesn't /opt/ exist in 8.04 ? | 14:08 |

| lappy198 | ikonia> Not on my computer.. Not by default anyhow, | 14:09 |
| soundray | lappy198: opt is for local packages not distributed by Ubuntu. So the directory will be created, but empty. | 14:09 |
| ikonia | lappy198: yes by default | 14:09 |
| ikonia | lappy198: you must have deleted it | 14:10 |
| lappy198 | ikonia> no.. I havn't deleted it. | 14:10 |
| lappy198 | soundray> Ok, thanks | 14:10 |
| ikonia | lappy198: I have 3 hardy installs in front of my, and 2 VM's all default, all have opt | 14:10 |
| lappy198 | I guess I'll have to creat it myself.. | 14:10 |
| soundray | lappy198: don't make a fuss about it, just sudo mkdir /opt | 14:10 |
| cary | ok i finally got into root without using sux command | 14:10 |

| cary | i have been reading properties on this thing i and i am not sure even if i mounted it if it is actually ntfs | 14:11 |

| kelvin911 | i send to amsn | 14:20 |
| kelvin911 | not msn client | 14:20 |
| kelvin911 | i think pidgin to msn doesnt work | 14:20 |
| ikonia | HeartLinux: .net framework, your only real option is mono | 14:20 |
| joaopinto | HeartLinux, if you are trying to install it over wine, please check #winehq | 14:20 |
| Bucheron | meuh | 14:20 |
| Kudak | histo: the 80gb has 2 partitions , 1 is ext3 1 is NTFS, the ntfs it reads and auto mounts, the sata is not but GRUB is on sata :) | 14:20 |
| ikonia | kelvin911: I'm pretty sure it does | 14:20 |
| kelvin911 | how pretty sure? | 14:20 |
| ikonia | kelvin911: one moment | 14:20 |
| kelvin911 | can i add u and let me send a file to u? | 14:20 |
| histo | Kudak: okay this is a jacked setup. Is it mounting either drive? | 14:21 |
| HeartLinux | ikonia: so mono is the single option? looks pretty hard to install | 14:21 |
| npcomplete | Hi, anybody knows why permission of my files on remote machine change? I make them available through nfs file system | 14:21 |
| * soundray wonders what it is about "no" that some people don't understand | 14:21 | |
| ikonia | HeartLinux: it's a framework/library etc | 14:21 |
| saiki | I have a major issue where KDE defaulted on updating Gutsy to Hardy. I think also some things might not be completely installed. is there some way of doing a "soft reset" of Hardy (IE: repair the OS without losing personal files) | 14:21 |
| Kudak | histo: the 80GB is fully mounted, the ntfs partitions on it ALWAYS loads up | 14:21 |
| kenkku | HeartLinux: mono is the implementation of .net framework on linux. microsoft's framework won't run on linux. | 14:22 |
| HeartLinux | ikonia: could you tell me how exactly to install it? what do I have to do? :) | 14:22 |
| kenkku | HeartLinux: what do you want to do? develop with it? | 14:22 |
| histo | Kudak: and the system boots with grub off the sata ? | 14:22 |
| ikonia | HeartLinux: well, the mono packags are in the package manager, you need specific ones for specific tasks | 14:22 |
| npcomplete | on local machine they have permission san.san but on remote machine they are know as sshd.san | 14:22 |
| Kudak | histo: yup | 14:22 |
| HeartLinux | kenkku: a program needs it | 14:22 |
| kenkku | HeartLinux: which program? | 14:22 |
| histo | Kudak: does /media/sdb1 exist? | 14:22 |
| soundray | saiki: if you think you have an incomplete upgrade, try this: 'sudo dpkg --configure -a ; sudo apt-get -f install' | 14:23 |
| kenkku | HeartLinux: try to see if it's in the package repositories | 14:23 |
| Kudak | histo: yes | 14:23 |
| HeartLinux | kenkkku: well it's not a very know one... it converts .m2 (wow models) | 14:23 |
| ikonia | kelvin911: seems to work fine | 14:23 |
| soundray | saiki: if you get errors from either of the two commands, repeat and see if it fixes itself. | 14:23 |

| saiki | Kudak: then purge and reinstall it | 14:35 |
| Slart | Sn0wm4n: usually firefox is already running in the background | 14:35 |
| saiki | Sn0wm4n: it takes a minute | 14:35 |
| Slart | Sn0wm4n: try typing this in a terminal, "pkill -9 firefox", then try again | 14:35 |
| Kudak | saiki: ok i know the reinstall part, u'r gonna have to remind me about the purge one :) | 14:35 |
| saiki | kudak: sudo apt-get purge <pkg> | 14:36 |

| Gnea | Sn0wm4n: you wouldn't, if a process is almost or fully zombied, it's going to stay that way until it's taken out | 14:37 |

| saiki | Shardphoenix: then use ndiswrapper on it | 14:40 |
| joaopinto | HeartLinux, probably your programs are windows .net dependent, mono is not a full .net implementation, so, no, they will not work | 14:40 |

| Gnea | dmseg: so the links to freeporn.exe are showing up on ubuntu desktops, not wintendo machines? | 14:42 |
| HeartLinux | saiki: Model Injector, it's not a known program because it's only for a forum | 14:42 |

| soundray | debian_akroyd: (just kidding) | 14:44 |
| joaopinto | dmseg, you really should't be administering an Ubuntu server, because you don't have the skills, otherwise you would be aware that your Linux server can not be infected with a Windows only virus | 14:44 |
| debian_akroyd | ROFL! | 14:44 |
| Gnea | dmseg: so what's the problem? | 14:44 |
| geirha | dmseg: they are win32 binaries? Try "file freeporn.exe" | 14:44 |
| swamptin | Does anyone know of a way to get GEdit to do line numbering along the side? | 14:44 |
| joaopinto | the files are residing on the server, because you have the samba shares being accessed by windows systems | 14:45 |
| Gnea | dmseg: why don't you run a virus scan on the systems and take the virus out? | 14:45 |
| dmseg | joaopinto: where are you lost iam saying the virus is sitting the ubuntu server first think then talk | 14:45 |

| KINGABAN | but if i enable it i always got a black screen after i restart the pc | 14:47 |
| saiki | kudak: it should be the new NTFS mounting library | 14:47 |
| swamptin | ssam: Thanks. Had it been a dog it would have savaged me. Teach me to open my eyes in future, eh? | 14:47 |
| debian_akroyd | KINGABAN, you may have to install the new nvidia driver for it to work though | 14:47 |
| anti | help - i have an external display attached on ubuntu - when connected supports only 800 by 600 whereas in windows supports 1024 - its a sis vga adapter .. how can i fix this? | 14:47 |

| fiXXXerMet | From what I understand, twinview is 1 x session, and xinerama is 2 x sessions | 14:48 |
| debian_akroyd | KINGABAN, open a terminal and type sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new | 14:48 |
| KINGABAN | wait ill try | 14:48 |
| debian_akroyd | KINGABAN, np :) | 14:49 |
| saiki | HeartLinux: try the programs listed in linuxalt.com (I'll doublecheck the url, one sec) | 14:49 |

| kudak | saiki: fix my HD i mean | 14:49 |
| geirha | dmseg: Does it supply an url for info about the virus? I'm curius to read about it. | 14:49 |

| Arodon | naxxtor: thanks :) | 14:50 |
| debian_akroyd | KINGABAN, retry the system->administration->hardware drivers-> check the enable checkbox | 14:50 |
| KINGABAN | then after chekcing up my resolutions ? | 14:51 |
| saiki | HeartLinux: yse, check there | 14:51 |
| kudak | saiki: whats the fuse package name? or better yea, how can i find out whats the package name | 14:51 |
| saiki | "fuse" | 14:51 |
| dmseg | coldpizza: use the recovery mode to install extra pakages are you good at cli? | 14:51 |
| debian_akroyd | KINGABAN, another way to be sure if your driver is installed is by typing "glxinfo | grep direct_rendering | 14:51 |
| coldpizza | fairly good, how do i enter recovery mode? | 14:51 |
| kudak | saiki: couldn't find package fuse | 14:51 |
| saiki | kudak: open synaptic and search for it | 14:52 |
| spectacular | hi, i just installed ubuntu on a dell laptop that has been running debian for centuries. i like ubuntu! i'm impressed that it's automatically mounting my external hard disks -- debian wasn't doing that for me. question -- who is doing that? i'd like to see if I could create nicer mount point names for the disks so i'll know which is which. | 14:52 |
| coldpizza | dmseg: there is no recovery mode at boot, is there? | 14:52 |
| Gnea | dmseg: so what sort of virus is it showing up as? | 14:52 |
| saiki | spectacular: all discs mount as disc disc-1 etc | 14:53 |
| saiki | spectacular: BEFORE it mounts, the windows name shows up | 14:53 |
| spectacular | saiki, can i change those names? | 14:53 |
| dmseg | Gnea: 1 badbuntu (/proc infector) 2 killer-av (samba share infector) both were brought by some person using a pen drive | 14:53 |
| Gnea | spectacular: no one is, the system just does it automatically. and they're about as nice as they're going to get. :) | 14:53 |
| dmseg | coldpizza: you have ubuntu 8.04? | 14:54 |
| KINGABAN | but debian after i check the enable box it remove my nvdia-glx-new | 14:54 |
| Sprax_ | how do I windows to grubs boot list when it's on a FakeRaid array? | 14:54 |
| coldpizza | dmseg: yes, 8.04 | 14:54 |
| saiki | spectacular: I am unaware of how you might, but you could try | 14:54 |
| KINGABAN | why is that ang it say system restart require | 14:54 |
| saiki | KINGABAN: because you're switching rendering | 14:54 |
| dmseg | coldpizza: at boot there will be a ubuntu recovery option | 14:54 |
| spectacular | Gnea, in debian i had them in the fstab to mount them as certain names. here i'll have problems because if i attach the discs in different orders they'll get different names next time. i want to be able to give them friendly names that will be specific to these drives | 14:55 |
| KINGABAN | then i will get blank screen after i restart the pc | 14:55 |
| debian_akroyd | KINGABAN, are you sure it removed the driver? did you check in synaptic to see if the driver is still installed? besides it needs a reboot to completely install the driver | 14:55 |
| Gnea | spectacular: IOW, you're looking for consistancy? | 14:55 |
| spectacular | Gnea, actually, no, they weren't in the fstab. i had a script that figured out which was which based on the size as they showed up in dmesg, and then mounted them. | 14:55 |

| mne | Hi. I have a strange problem: If I disable network manager and configure my wireless connection manually, it works for some minutes and then it seems to get dis-associated. iwevent reports "15:51:15.910331 wlan0 New Access Point/Cell address:Not-Associated". Is, besides network manager, still anything running on ubuntu that could cause this behavior ? | 14:56 |
| spectacular | saiki, how do you do that | 14:56 |
| debian_akroyd | monkeyBox, try sudo pulseaudio -k? | 14:57 |

| AlexMax | Hi, I'm trying to connect to a VPN using Ubuntu. It works, but I am unsure of the syntax of "Only enable VPN for these IP addresses". I only need to use the VPN for one IP and the apply button is greyed out if I only enter that IP, so I'm assuming I'm missing extra syntax | 15:01 |
| Gnea | spectacular: as I said, it's a FileSystem label | 15:01 |
| nibsa1242b | debian_akroyd: I think it'd be fine on reboot; but I'm in the middle of some moderately complicated web CSS development right now, and I'd prefer not to reboot. | 15:01 |
| spectacular | Gnea, ok, thanks | 15:01 |
| soundray | I would like to parse my history and assign aliases to my most frequently-used commands automatically. Is there some kind of gnome-terminal enhancement that does this, or should I write it myself? | 15:02 |
| === CoolZomb is now known as CoolFox | ||
| debian_akroyd | nibsa1242b, ah ic | 15:02 |
| AlexMax | The example shows "172.16.0.0/16 10.11.12.0/24" as an example to put in | 15:02 |
| AlexMax | but putting in the IP by itself does not appear to enable the "apply" button | 15:02 |
| saiki | soundray: can you give me that command you gave me earlier again, I lost it | 15:03 |
| cast | soundray: seems a silly thing to automate ;P | 15:03 |
| Slart | soundray: how would these aliases be named? cmd1 for the most common command? what is the order changes? or some other auto-create-alias thing? | 15:03 |
| unop | soundray, well, the question has to be asked, how are you going to name the aliases? | 15:03 |
| erUSUL | soundray: how would a script or gnome-terminal know which alias to use to you most used commands? | 15:03 |

| erUSUL | soundray: or what unop said ;P | 15:03 |

| naxxtor | blackpen: what are you trying to achieve? | 15:05 |
| debian_akroyd | nibsa1242b, well then if you cant find it, try just running pulseaudio | 15:05 |
| debian_akroyd | nibsa1242b, that way it reloads the daemon | 15:05 |
| soundray | saiki: if you think you have an incomplete upgrade, try this: 'sudo dpkg --configure -a ; sudo apt-get -f install' | 15:05 |

| saiki | soundray: all of that in one line | 15:06 |
| saiki | ? | 15:06 |
| debian_akroyd | nibsa1242b, could be that the pulseaudio daemon glitched and resulted in a crash which took out vlc | 15:06 |
| soundray | Slart: I realize it depends on how one uses the terminal. I'm running experiments where I run a program (which takes a while to run), I follow the log with tail, edit the parameters, rerun it and so on. | 15:07 |
| naxxtor | blackpen: you just sniffing traffic? can't you use wireshark or something like that? | 15:07 |
| blackpen | naxxtor: i dont know. im very new to this. but it;'s time sensitive so im looking for the fastest option here | 15:07 |
| soundray | saiki: you can break it up at the semicolon | 15:07 |
| Slart | soundray: ah... well.. I guess it could be useful then.. still think you'll have to write it yourself though =) | 15:07 |

| hwilde | blackpen, wireshark | 15:08 |
| naxxtor | blackpen: i'd grab wireshark if you want to sniff packets, or something like iptraf if you want to gather statistics on connections | 15:08 |

| db92 | my main problem is that even though i have installed x-fi beta drivers, when i choose the x-fi driver for playback in sound options i still get the error message one gets as if he hasnt installed a driver at all | 15:24 |
| debian_akroyd | Vegombrei, probably needs to (re)install his video driver and/or reconfigure his xorg.conf | 15:24 |
| LitomoSilver | Have you guys bothered to check and see if the screen refresh rate was the problem? >_>; | 15:24 |
| soundray | Vegombrei: have I said something that was too difficult? | 15:24 |
| === seyo is now known as cari_ | ||
| LitomoSilver | Then it'd be sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg or something similar, wouldn't it, debian? | 15:25 |
| LitomoSilver | or was it just xserver? | 15:25 |
| LitomoSilver | I don't remember, but it should work. | 15:25 |
| debian_akroyd | LitomoSilver, well in ubuntu 8.04, you can type sudo init 1, which drops you into the "recovery console"..from there you can choose to reconfigure your xorg config | 15:25 |
| lakitu | soundray: i got into the live cd, sudo'd gparted, but now the delete partition is greyed out - how do i enable delete partition in gparted? | 15:26 |
| debian_akroyd | but if you want to you could run that command | 15:26 |
| lakitu | soundray: on my live cd | 15:26 |
| === alexande1 is now known as KINGABAN | ||
| lakitu | delete/format | 15:26 |
| KINGABAN | hello | 15:26 |
| LitomoSilver | Really? I didn't know you could do that. | 15:26 |
| KINGABAN | its me again | 15:26 |
| LitomoSilver | Something new learned. >D | 15:26 |
| soundray | LitomoSilver: no, in hardy it would be 'gksudo displayconfig-gtk'. Anyway, if xrandr fails to report the resolution he wants, it's not even worth trying. | 15:26 |
| blackpen | how the heck do i restart my network? | 15:26 |
| KINGABAN | debian are u still there? | 15:26 |
| Vegombrei | soundray: nope .. but i dont think he got it :) | 15:27 |
| LitomoSilver | Have you thought that he might not know the max resolution of his monitor? | 15:27 |
| debian_akroyd | KINGABAN, im still here | 15:27 |
| KINGABAN | hello | 15:27 |
| debian_akroyd | KINGABAN, did it work? | 15:27 |
| soundray | lakitu: make sure it's not mounted | 15:27 |
| KINGABAN | i just did what u had tell but no luck | 15:27 |
| KINGABAN | im still getting black screen after i restart my pc | 15:27 |
| soundray | antiall: how are you getting on? | 15:27 |
| debian_akroyd | KINGABAN, you may just have to install the driver straight from the nvidia site then | 15:28 |
| meekatron_ | anyone here using irssi? | 15:28 |
| KINGABAN | how can i do that? | 15:28 |
| LitomoSilver | Nope. | 15:28 |
| naxxtor | meekatron_: of course :) | 15:28 |
| debian_akroyd | KINGABAN, nvidia provides documentation about how to install their driver on their website | 15:28 |
| saiki | , Konversation | 15:28 |
| LitomoSilver | Konversation here as well. | 15:28 |
| KINGABAN | ic | 15:28 |
| LitomoSilver | Not exactly my favorite IRC client. | 15:29 |
| KINGABAN | ill try reading their documentation | 15:29 |
| debian_akroyd | xchat here | 15:29 |
| LitomoSilver | But I can't be arsed to install Wine then run mIRC on that. | 15:29 |
| KINGABAN | but is there any alternative for that | 15:29 |
| meekatron_ | a wee question how to i remove the messages like... has joined ubuntu.... has timed out etc | 15:29 |
| Night_XX | hi folks | 15:29 |
| lakitu | soundray: yes, it's mounted.. =/ also, i have the grub bootloader - if i format this partition, will my comp even boot? | 15:29 |
| kitche | meekatron_: /ignore +JOINS +PARTS +QUITS | 15:29 |
| LitomoSilver | Yes, it should, lakitu. | 15:29 |
| LitomoSilver | It'll complain about not having an OS, but it'll continue to boot. | 15:30 |
| lakitu | soundray: i am formatting the ubuntu partition, btw | 15:30 |
| debian_akroyd | KINGABAN, you could try the other nvidia drivers in the ubuntu repository | 15:30 |
| soundray | lakitu: make sure it's *not* mounted if you want to delete it | 15:30 |
| === seyo is now known as Adinda_ | ||
| lakitu | soundray: how do i 'unmount' it? | 15:30 |
| blackpen | i followed the instructions for firestarter and my internet is still not working. | 15:30 |
| soundray | lakitu: you will have to install a new bootloader to the MBR | 15:30 |
| KINGABAN | how can i get that other nvidia drivers in the ubunt repository? | 15:30 |
| soundray | lakitu: 'sudo umount /dev/sdxY' | 15:30 |
| Night_XX | i've a question: what is the faster PCI access method? BIOS,MMconfig, Direct, ANY? | 15:30 |
| band4life | Hi! is there an op here who can tell me if I am still banned? | 15:30 |
| debian_akroyd | KINGABAN, open synaptic, then type nvidia | 15:31 |
| amenado | blackpen you do not need firestarter to have an internet access | 15:31 |
| xnv | /ignore +JOINS +PARTS +QUITS | 15:31 |
| Bruners | band4life: you are talking arent you ? | 15:31 |
| eleben | anyone running zfs either with fuse or opensolaris (VM) | 15:31 |
| xnv | Weird how pasting that results in it being ignored as command :) | 15:31 |
| blackpen | amendo: ?? how can i test it? | 15:31 |
| LitomoSilver | lmao | 15:31 |
| lakitu | soundray: thank you. #2, if i delete this partition, & grub, & i reinstall ubuntu, will that solve my boot loading problems? (where i don't have to install a new bootloader into the MBR?) | 15:31 |
| band4life | yeah, but i change I.P.'s more than I change my underwear | 15:31 |
| Night_XX | noone can help me?? | 15:31 |
| LitomoSilver | It should, yes, lakitu. | 15:31 |
| LitomoSilver | Reinstalling Ubuntu automatically has it install its own boot loader. | 15:32 |
| kitche | eleben: I run zfs with FreeBSD what do you want to know | 15:32 |
| saiki | lakitu: if you reinstall it, you'll have no MBR issues | 15:32 |
| lakitu | LitomoSilver: ok. thanks | 15:32 |
| eleben | looking to run zfs under VM | 15:32 |
| lakitu | saiki: cool | 15:32 |
| soundray | lakitu: when you run the normal Ubuntu installation procedure, grub will automatically be replaced in the MBR | 15:32 |
| saiki | lakitu: or.. | 15:32 |
| saiki | !grub | 15:32 |
| eleben | but ubuntu doesn't allow me access to my drives | 15:32 |
| 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 | 15:32 |
| amenado | blackpen you are connected to the internet now are you not? | 15:32 |
| LitomoSilver | That's what I just said, soundray. :p | 15:32 |
| saiki | you can make a CD | 15:32 |
| lakitu | soundray: thanks again | 15:32 |
| soundray | LitomoSilver: no, it wasn't | 15:32 |
| blackpen | amendo: techinically, yes. but im not getting through the gateway. i dont know if the gateway is working properly. | 15:32 |
| LitomoSilver | You'll still run GRUB, unless you want to use a different bootloader. | 15:33 |
| LitomoSilver | Though that's not recommended. >_>; | 15:33 |
| debian_akroyd | KINGABAN, im dont like how ubuntu cant just detect your card and select the proper drivers for you :( | 15:33 |
| amenado | blackpen my nick is amenado | 15:33 |
| blackpen | opps... did you see what i said above? | 15:33 |
| kitche | eleben: what do you mean by access disks | 15:33 |
| LitomoSilver | What, concerning nVIDIA stuff, debian? | 15:33 |
| meekatron_ | thanks it sort of worked still gettin a few poppin up though | 15:33 |
| azhar27 | Hi everyone, i am getting this error, what does this mean. Here is the screenshot attached http://img393.imageshack.us/img393/2933/screenshottp8.png | 15:33 |
| KINGABAN | what will i type so that ubuntu can detect my card and select the proper drivers? | 15:34 |
| LitomoSilver | That's basically because nVIDIA is proprietary. | 15:34 |
| debian_akroyd | litlebuda, mmhmm | 15:34 |
| debian_akroyd | KINGABAN, im saying i wish it would | 15:34 |

| Lollipopz | hello | 15:34 |
| Lollipopz | how do I purge apache config files? | 15:34 |
| eleben | under VM - using disk manager I can easily see the disks but when I select the disk I can't do anything with them | 15:34 |
| KINGABAN | hehehe, ic | 15:35 |
| LitomoSilver | Wow, my installation of last.fm is starting to put me to sleep. xD | 15:35 |
| alvarezp | Hello. I'd like Ubuntu to dump core files by default, without size limit. How do I do that? | 15:35 |
| Lollipopz | i can't get to uninstall apache "completely" | 15:35 |
| eleben | normally you can view information about the disk but it won't even let me do that so when I try to create a zpool it doesn't allow me to use those disks. | 15:35 |
| azhar27 | anyone , this error http://img393.imageshack.us/img393/2933/screenshottp8.png | 15:35 |
| saiki | band4life: what problem? | 15:35 |
| kitche | eleben: sounds like a permission issue of the user | 15:35 |
| amenado | blackpen if you can get to the internet, you are going through the gateway | 15:36 |
| band4life | saiki when I try to run halflife in wine. It says I do not have a 3d accelerator. But it works fine in windows. | 15:36 |

| eleben | i'm running as root | 15:36 |

| blackpen | amenando: i have one cable modem.. going to the internet. that modem goes to nic1 on my server. and nic2 on my server goes to a router. | 15:44 |
| LitomoSilver | Why do you have that setup, Blackpen? | 15:44 |
| LitomoSilver | o_O; | 15:44 |
| amenado | blackpen your nic2 goes to a router.. and this router connects to where? | 15:45 |
| blackpen | router conencts to the rest of the computers on the network. | 15:45 |
| lakitu | soundray: i can't seem to delete the partition hda5, because it says "please unmount any logical partitions having a number higher than 5" - which is only hda6, but when i umount /dev/hda6, it says "unmounted"... btw, hda6 is my linux swap partition | 15:45 |
| ePhil_ | Hi, I'm trying to install nagios3 via aptitude. aptitude search nagios shows only old packeges. A websearch findes the packets here: http://packages.ubuntu.com/de/intrepid/nagios3. Question: how do i add those (intrepid) repositorys to my sources.list? | 15:45 |
| LitomoSilver | Wouldn't it be easier to set the router up to be connected to the modem BEFORE the server and the other computers? | 15:45 |
| LitomoSilver | >_>; | 15:45 |
| blackpen | amenado: basically im trying to drop my server between a router and the cable modem | 15:45 |
| LitomoSilver | Your router automatically shares internet to ALL computers. Not just your server. | 15:46 |
| kindofabuzz | LitomoSilver: maybe his box is a firewall | 15:46 |
| LitomoSilver | True. | 15:46 |
| LitomoSilver | But he didn't mention that. | 15:46 |
| TheHorse13 | CD mounted | 15:46 |
| kitche | ePhil_: you don't intrepid is the next release of Ubuntu it's a bad idea to mix new version of Ubuntu with an older version | 15:46 |
| LitomoSilver | He did say it's a server. | 15:46 |
| amenado | blackpen-> okay, and you are right now chatting from your server or from a client within your local subnet beyond the router? | 15:46 |
| soundray | unop: that's magic, thank you SO much! | 15:46 |
| saiki | TheHorse13: perform the update with the CD in the "drive" | 15:46 |
| unop | soundray, yw :) | 15:46 |
| ePhil_ | kitche: ups - thats what i was missing. thx for pointing that out. | 15:47 |
| danfg | where does "System > Preferences > Session" store its information??? I want to edit the file! | 15:47 |
| blackpen | amenado: im chatting from a wireless signal that does not belong to me. i cannot get on my network right now because it isnt configured properly. | 15:47 |
| TheHorse13 | use package manager to spawn the upgrade? | 15:47 |
| saiki | it shouldn't hang this way, because it loads files directly from the media to install it | 15:47 |
| soundray | lakitu: try 'sudo swapoff' | 15:47 |
| LitomoSilver | Ok, gnash is installed. Now what? | 15:47 |
| lakitu | soundray: ok - gparted has that option, but i didn't want to try & get myself in a worse situation | 15:47 |

| amenado | blackpen thats the reason i asked for a network layout, its a guessing game for me to understand how you are connected | 15:49 |
| saiki | TheHorse13: yes, it will | 15:49 |
| TheHorse13 | no, its the 8.04 ISO image | 15:49 |

| alex_gherman_agh | I have a soundboard Creative soundblaster live, and I have "accidentaly" activeted and set the "mix" button | 15:50 |
| blackpen | amenado: this is the only computer online right now because it's leeching off of someone else. my entire network is down. | 15:50 |

| amenado | ? | 15:51 |
| blackpen | amenado: no. | 15:51 |

| amenado | blackpen, if you remove the server from the path of the router, and have the router connected directly to your cable modem, does it get an ip address and can access the internet? | 15:52 |
| zvacet | TheHorse13 . if you want to upgrade from CD you need alternate version | 15:52 |
| blackpen | amenado: yes. it will work then | 15:52 |
| TheHorse13 | do you have a link for DL please? | 15:52 |
| bazhang | !alternate | 15:52 |
| ubottu | The Alternate CD is a classical text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD, and can also be used as an upgrade CD. Look for the alternate checkbox on the Ubuntu download page - See also !minimal - Torrent at http://releases.ubuntu.com/8.04/ubuntu-8.04-alternate-i386.iso.torrent | 15:52 |

| zvacet | TheHorse13 :http://releases.ubuntu.com/hardy/ | 15:53 |
| amenado | blackpen okay now on your server, you have to enable ip_forwarding and do a NAT plus you have to run a dhcp server to dole out the ip address to the router..you follow? | 15:53 |

| Kludge^Wales | hai! Can anyone help me out with regards to a weird (sound) problem... My soundcard uses the Envy24 chipset (terratec phase 28 producer) and under ubuntu/Xubuntu I can get it to pipe out digital audio (as the analog is screwed up!) but KDE4/Kubuntu for some reason I cannot get it to pipe out digital audio over coax <3 | 15:55 |
| blackpen | amenado: i would like to have static as there is a test web server on this as well. | 15:55 |
| geirha | afancy: http://screencasts.ubuntu.com/MoS2007/15_Connecting_to_Printers | 15:55 |
| amenado | blackpen okay you want to assign a static to your router, which interface name is that connected to on the server? eth0 or eth1? | 15:56 |
| kitche | amenado: most routers do not understand dhcp as a client anyways at least the store bought ones | 15:56 |

| Feldegast | _itrx8\o you will need cd burning software for windows eg nero | 16:27 |
| _itrx8\o | ok, can you suggest a free one? | 16:27 |
| bazhang | _itrx8\o, isorecorder2 is one choice, nero is another | 16:27 |

| lollydays | kane, try using ndisgtk, it's a GUI for ndiswrapper, might be a bit more straightforward for you | 16:28 |
| nmcbride | I just downloaded the latest version of hotwire because the version in the repo is old. How can I make a deb package from a spec file? | 16:28 |
| KlrSpz | nero sucks | 16:28 |
| _itrx8\o | excellent, thx everyone :) | 16:28 |

| band4life | jussio1 but that is linux related, is it not? | 16:28 |
| lollydays | kane, run it with your specific card's windows drivers, a .inf file | 16:28 |

| amenado | kane you are SOL if you dont use ndiswrapper with broadcom bxm43xx.. :P | 16:29 |
| lollydays | kane, oh | 16:29 |
| jussio1 | band4life: try joining the conversation in #ubuntu-offtopic | 16:29 |
| kane | What is SOL | 16:29 |
| NeroGage | Could use infrarecorder like Ubuntu recomends. | 16:29 |

| Gnea | kane: if you're so sure, then go use that other way. | 16:33 |
| kane77 | I guess I will turn off highlighting for "kane" :D | 16:33 |

| wols | kane: there are natiev drivers. b43. but you still need a firmware | 16:35 |
| soundray | Ayabara: what makes you think it's necessary? | 16:35 |

| Gnea | KlrSpz: just apt-cache search wireshark | 16:35 |
| wols | kane: from your hardware vendor | 16:35 |
| amenado | KlrSpz-> look into ip_conntrack packet counting | 16:35 |
| KlrSpz | Gnea: gratzi; i couldn't remember that name for the life of me | 16:35 |
| soundray | Ayabara: excellent, then you don't | 16:36 |
| kane | my hardware vendor? | 16:36 |
| kane | Where is that | 16:36 |
| soundray | !defrag | Ayabara | 16:36 |
| ubottu | Ayabara: The default Ubuntu filesystem (ext3) is engineered to avoid fragmentation issues in most cases, see http://linkpot.net/behead/ for a simple example on how it achieves this. | 16:36 |
| amenado | KlrSpz-> but thats just generic all packet counting | 16:36 |
| AlexMax | What is the syntax for 'only use for these addresses' when configuring a VPN. I'm trying to set up a VPN and I can connect to it, but it shuts off my internet every time I connect to it. I have attempted to use the IP address by itself, but apparently it needs something after a slash (in the form of 1.2.3.4/5) I'm not sure it's a port number because I've tried to put in necissary ports... | 16:36 |
| AlexMax | ...and I can't connect | 16:36 |
| Ayabara | soundray: great. thanks :) | 16:36 |
| saiki | wishie: probably a/b | 16:36 |
| wols | soundray: there are corner cases where fragmentation happens. but those are corner cases | 16:36 |
| saiki | wishie: I am unfamiliar wiht that card though | 16:36 |
| wols | wishie: no n | 16:36 |
| wishie | saiki: well, im quite sure it does 'g' too | 16:36 |
| kane | Wols how can i access hardware vendor | 16:36 |
| bazhang | wishie, likely g at the greatest | 16:36 |
| martian67 | AlexMax: it has to do with subnetting | 16:36 |
| Gnea | kane: okay, a hardware vendor is a person or business entity (most of the time) that vends, or sells hardware. in your case, broadcom sells your wireless chip. | 16:36 |
| martian67 | you need to understand tcp/ip better | 16:37 |
| wishie | wols: why does it have n in its name then ? its a brand new device | 16:37 |
| kane | Ok ok | 16:37 |
| kane | Thank you | 16:37 |
| amenado | AlexMax-> also it has to do with using the route tables | 16:37 |
| kane | So i download from there website | 16:37 |
| wols | kane: whoever you bought the hardware from. your laptop maker | 16:37 |
| kane | the manufacture | 16:37 |
| Gnea | kane: why don't you take a look and see what's there? | 16:37 |

| martian67 | AlexMax: it can be express either way | 16:38 |
| wols | wishie: it does do draft-n which is kinda worthless IIRC | 16:38 |
| unop | AlexMax, 4 octects you mean? yes .. a subnet is represented as an IP address but also with a mask after it | 16:38 |
| martian67 | AlexMax: without getting too complicated 255.255.255.0 = /24 | 16:38 |
| kane | Kane77 did you get your card work | 16:38 |
| wols | wishie: cause what draft? and with which APs can it talk n, etc? so it does abg and that's it | 16:38 |
| martian67 | AlexMax: without getting too complicated 255.255.0.0 = /32 | 16:38 |
| martian67 | etc | 16:38 |
| martian67 | oops | 16:38 |
| martian67 | AlexMax: without getting too complicated 255.255.0.0 = /16 | 16:38 |
| martian67 | sorry | 16:38 |

| unop | AlexMax, though 192.168.0.0/16 is not actually a subnet .. it's a summary or supernet | 16:41 |
| kane77 | kane, yes.. at first it was hell to set up (I had to use ndiswrapper).. and after upgrade to hardy it was all broken.. so I uninstalled all and installed a driver using "hardware drivers" app.. now it all works (however only uses 27dB txpower ..) | 16:41 |

| Conundrum_ | !sudo | 16:43 |
| ubottu | sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome), or !kdesu (KDE) | 16:43 |
| stianux | Hi, ive got a problem and need some help. Cant seem to find the graphic drivers to my comp for ubuntu. Everything else is working fine. Just missing the graphic card drivers. | 16:43 |
| Conundrum_ | see that link lakitu | 16:43 |
| lakitu | ok, thanks Conundrum_ | 16:44 |
| Conundrum_ | statix: you need to enable the restricted drivers | 16:44 |
| Conundrum_ | i assume you are using kde 4? | 16:44 |
| wishie | wols: well, ill let that one slide. the fact i could buy a 'freedos' version of this laptop, and every piece of hardware has native linux drivers.. good enough for me. | 16:44 |
| stianux | ye | 16:44 |
| stianux | How do i enable for restricted drivers? | 16:44 |
| martian67 | wishie: and pay more | 16:44 |
| stianux | I | 16:44 |
| amenado | blackpen-> your server is already connected to the internet yes? or still not? | 16:44 |
| wishie | martian67: quite cheap, actually. | 16:45 |
| kane | thank you guys | 16:45 |
| kane | I will see if it works | 16:45 |
| wols | wishie: oh, no probs. just don't ever trust vendors what they say :) | 16:45 |

| ASULutzy | Hmmm, so what package should I file this bug report under, I'm guessing Gnome, but I have no idea... So I created a .zip file using 7-zip in Windows and I password protected it. The password began with an '!' (not sure if this matters) I then copied it from my Windows VM to my host Ubuntu (hardy) OS and tried to unzip it by right clicking it and hitting extract here. It asked me for the password, which I entered, but after I entered it it | 16:45 |

| curlie | and I havent figured out how | 17:17 |
| curlie | right now im forced to do it manually (which is related to the dhcp lease running out and not renewing (if that makes sense) | 17:17 |

| Sprax_ | amenado: yup, windows works just fine, I just need to get grub to "pass on" to the windows boot loader :/ | 17:18 |
| Kaspersky_ | ndo: Change GRUBs install location using the advanced button at the last point of the installer. | 17:18 |
| curlie | dbmoodb_, perhaps I should re-phrase the problem: I would like to configure some sort or auto-detection for wireless if at all possible. It seems to me (in my noobish state) that this would solve (or at least help) the problem of dhcp renewal at work | 17:18 |
| Sprax_ | amenado: I can point it to hd0 or hd1, but not both | 17:18 |

| WinterWeaver | how can I reset my Sound Modules via command Line (Ubuntu 8.04). Everytime I visit a website with flash based video (ie YouTube). My sound stops working. To solve the problem I always restart the machine, but it's very annoying. (btw... just resetting gnome with ctrl-alt-backspace doesn't work) | 17:26 |
| mesy4567 | Bazhang, and it also installed something when I booted, some restricted drivers or something | 17:26 |
| zombieball | valiza1: from the research I have done it seems quite involved. The initial installaton would have to be done using a preseed file I assume. But in my case I have custom applications to install as well. The only way I imagine this could be done would to be make .deb packages as well? Starting to get quite involved! | 17:27 |

| db92 | yo, in synaptic theres 4 different fglrx, the xorg-driver-fglrx and xorg-driver-fglrx-envy(+the dev packages), is there any problem if i install the ones that say envy without installing envyng? is it preferred to install the non-envy ones? is it acceptable to install both? | 17:48 |
| DragonDon | Greetings all! | 17:48 |
| RequinB4 | !hi | DragonDon | 17:49 |
| ubottu | DragonDon: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu! | 17:49 |
| znh | !virtualbox | 17:49 |
| ubottu | virtualbox is a x86 !virtualizer. A !free edition is available from !Gutsy as 'virtualbox-ose'. A non-free edition is available at http://virtualbox.org for most Ubuntu releases (help in #vbox) - Setup details at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox | 17:49 |
| mesy4567 | Hello DragonDon | 17:49 |
| geirha | !envy | db92 | 17:50 |
| ubottu | db92: 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 | 17:50 |
| DragonDon | I'm fairly new to ubuntu but have enjoyed installing it on 3 different machines. Now working on tweaking them and how to use them better. | 17:50 |
| cslater | martian67 almost wonder if you want to do apt-get clean to get rid of old files, then do apt-get --reinstall install of some of the things | 17:50 |
| db92 | geirha, been there, done that, i know how to use envy already | 17:50 |
| db92 | geirha, the thing is that the drivers of envy didnt work for me properly last time, so im wondering if it will work if i install the xorg-driver-fglrx alone | 17:50 |
| db92 | or if i still need to install the -envy ones aswel even without installing envyng, or something crazy like that; P | 17:51 |
| RequinB4 | db92: why not try it out? | 17:51 |
| wols | db92: envy is totally unsupported. if you used it: congrats for hosing your ubuntu | 17:51 |
| cast | god programs that dont have -s --short-and-long-switches syntax annoy me | 17:51 |
| geirha | db92: xorg-driver-fglrx is the one that gets installed from system -> admin -> hardware drivers | 17:51 |
| wols | db92: and good luck getting support here | 17:51 |
| DragonDon | Got a question about formatting a 2nd drive. I have a 160GB old WinXP drive that is installed but I would like to wipe it and use it strictly for storage and shared on the network. What is the best tool to do this? | 17:51 |
| db92 | wols, ye, that was on the last installation :P | 17:52 |
| martian67 | cslater: trying | 17:52 |

| wols | db92: good for you. don't mess your system with envy | 17:52 |

| zombieball | DragonDon: gparted | 17:52 |
| zombieball | oops, I second gparted then :p | 17:52 |
| geirha | db92: It's probably best to try installing it from the "hardware drivers" gui | 17:52 |
| DragonDon | @Zombieball: Thanks, installing that now. | 17:52 |
| RequinB4 | DragonDon: I'll third the gparted and raise a gparted livecd | 17:53 |

| band4life | but I am more than willing to setup a mirror if that helps anybody | 18:07 |
| geirha | lakitu_: right, back up your current ~/.bashrc, and copy the one from skel «cp /etc/skel/.bashrc ~» Then remove that comment. | 18:07 |
| band4life | cslater reprepro? | 18:08 |

| geirha | lakitu_: When a new user is created, all files from /etc/skel are copied to the new homedirectory, so that's a "fresh" file. Oh and do note that if you use a terminal that does not support colors, you will get lots of weird characters instead of colors. | 18:09 |

| ksbalaji | Ive enabled cookies in firefox 3x /Hardy OS. Google login does not sense this. Solution pl? | 18:12 |

| band4life | eracc I dont know what that means. and i dont want to need the internet. | 18:12 |
| bazhang | meoblast001, this is a busy support channel. please stop | 18:12 |
| eracc | band4life, you would just need a local LAN for that. | 18:13 |
| wols | band4life: you need to create your own local ubuntu mirror repo. and you've been already told how to do it | 18:13 |
| wols | eracc: no LAN needed | 18:13 |
| eracc | band4life, but you will have to have the internet to get the packages to begin with. | 18:13 |
| cwill747 | !offtopic | meoblast001 | 18:13 |
| ubottu | meoblast001: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome! | 18:13 |
| ksbalaji | wols, I erased all cookies. Also no problem in exception list. As I sought help from google page, It is silent about FF ver. 3x. | 18:13 |

| Trinithis | What firewall and antivirus software should I install on ubuntu? | 18:14 |

| ubottu | Trinithis: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21 | 18:14 |
| cwill747 | meoblast001, this is a support channel for linux. Asking offtopic questions about backdoors by the government is not related to this support channel | 18:14 |
| wols | eracc: so am I | 18:14 |
| band4life | wols and i really prefer a dvd, or harddrive backup | 18:14 |
| Trinithis | Ok | 18:14 |
| RequinB4 | !firewall | Trinithis | 18:14 |
| ubottu | Trinithis: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE). | 18:14 |
| liz_ | huhu | 18:14 |
| Trinithis | thx for the links | 18:14 |
| eracc | wols, I see. So, how do you install from your mirror to another machine then? I am curious. | 18:14 |
| wols | band4life: universe is not on and DVD. and if you have a repo on a harddisk is a "harddrive backup" | 18:14 |
| wols | eracc: move harddisks | 18:15 |

| concretesledge | what program will work like VMWARE to mount an iso image | 18:48 |
| wols | si4r1: no. but what are you trying to do? | 18:49 |
| wols | concretesledge: you can loop mount | 18:49 |
| maybeway36 | concretesledge: mkdir folder;sudo mount -o loop,uid=1000,gid=1000 isoname.iso folder | 18:49 |

| cslater | there's a site out there where you can create a blank vm | 18:51 |

| concretesledge | is that going to be a problem since ubuntu is my base OS | 18:51 |
| maybeway36 | on your real hard drive, or a virtual one? | 18:51 |
| soundray | mbrigdan: burnP6 and burnK7 should challenge it equally. They are single-thread, so you will probably have to start four instances to have a meaningful load | 18:51 |
| concretesledge | Real hdd | 18:51 |
| cslater | problem will be that windows will take over the MBR and not give you the option to boot ubuntu | 18:52 |
| jules90 | Hi guys. Am trying to follow the intstructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows (although it was fedora that killed my boot loader, not win) but when I type "find /boot/grub/stage1" (first step after typing grub) I get the error: "Error 15: File not found".

| cslater | speaking of ;) | 18:52 |
| maybeway36 | concretesledge: I don't know if you can use a real partition in a vitual machine | 18:52 |
| concretesledge | cs278, | 18:52 |
| concretesledge | maybeway36, na im sorry.. i meant | 18:52 |
| concretesledge | just create a seperate partition for XP | 18:53 |
| maybeway36 | ok | 18:53 |
| maybeway36 | then I would reboot into a live CD with gparted on it | 18:53 |
| maybeway36 | GParted Live, Parted Magic, SystemRescueCD, or Knoppix | 18:53 |
| maybeway36 | or Ubuntu live CD | 18:53 |
| soundray | jules90: mount /dev/sda1 to, say, /mnt and check whether /mnt/boot/grub is there and whether there's stuff in it | 18:53 |
| maybeway36 | Then you can resize Ubuntu and make a primary partiion for XP | 18:53 |
| LTSP | concretesledge: generally if you want to dual boot windows with ubuntu, install windows first then ubuntu and grub will be correctly installed, otherwise windows wipes it out. | 18:54 |

| krod | is there a linux equivalent of that microsoft program that checks the disk? | 18:58 |
| krod | and repairs it if there is a problem? | 18:58 |
| maybeway36 | krod: fsck proably | 18:58 |
| maybeway36 | run it from a live cd though | 18:59 |

| krod | ill run the memcheck again to make sure | 18:59 |
| makiolo | fsck.vfat ... | 18:59 |
| krod | ok, what option to check the disk | 18:59 |
| dawid | sorry but joost is not for linux | 18:59 |
| soundray | fsck is no use to krod, since he has not installed a filesystem yet | 18:59 |
| maybeway36 | fsck.ext3 -c /dev/xxx will check for bad secotrs | 18:59 |
| Bonster1 | dont ubuntu do disc check auto every 21 boots? | 18:59 |
| krod | the disk is really messed up at this point, it froze one time when it was formatting | 18:59 |
| yogesh | which software is good for the virtual OS | 18:59 |
| maybeway36 | krod: you can run badblocks on the hard drive | 18:59 |
| maybeway36 | it will tell you of problems but won;t fix them | 19:00 |
| maybeway36 | because the fixing info is usually stores in th filesystem | 19:00 |
| krod | can badblocks be ran from a live disk? | 19:00 |
| dawid | ok thanks i have miro | 19:00 |
| maybeway36 | krod: not if its the disk youre checking. i think | 19:00 |

| saiki | ok, then you're using the live cd? | 19:28 |

| DefunctProcess | or a screwy CDrom | 19:28 |
| siddu | i downloaded a theme how to install it | 19:28 |
| Dwerg | i downloaded it and burned the image | 19:28 |
| bazhang | Dwerg, did you md5 the iso and do a disk integrity check after burning at very low speed? | 19:29 |
| saiki | DefunctProcess: or a combination of them | 19:29 |
| DefunctProcess | Dwerg: did you do a md5 checksum? | 19:29 |
| DefunctProcess | saiki: with a cherry ontop | 19:29 |
| saiki | LMAO | 19:29 |
| wcchandler | Dwerg -- boot into the live cd, the error checking is more efficient if you do have a bad image | 19:29 |
| Dwerg | very low speed? how low? i burned at max (24x) | 19:29 |
| DefunctProcess | Dwerg: did you check the disk for consistency? | 19:29 |
| Dwerg | consistency? | 19:29 |
| saiki | Dwerg: what is your system specs? | 19:29 |

| DefunctProcess | whats the difference | 19:30 |
| AndyB | DRebellion: Ok i have logged into the other account and have access. What do i do to undo the chmod restrictions? | 19:30 |
| DefunctProcess | its a image/CD problem | 19:30 |
| Dwerg | 1.8GHz i think i can check | 19:30 |
| IdleOne | the processor speed would have nothing to do with the cd not booting | 19:30 |
| DRebellion | AndyB, chmod u+x,u+r /home/andyb | 19:30 |
| saiki | DefunctProcess: I burned a x86_64 at 16x DVD speed | 19:31 |

| saiki | helm: Ubuntu should automount USB anything | 20:13 |
| helm | larson9999: new disks | 20:13 |
| mrwoody | hi *. Does anyone know how to check wthat is the model numbre of my sata HD? I can't find the file in /proc | 20:13 |
| DRebellion | larson9999, the norm for a cd-r is 700mb | 20:13 |
| wols | mrwoody: dmesg should tell you | 20:13 |
| Wrin | @saiki: I keep trying to get this wireless driver to work, you know? | 20:13 |
| helm | saiki: it does, but it does not (completly) unmount it | 20:13 |

| gregge | what did you write when you wanted to update the modules? | 20:14 |
| eagle_02 | okay, I need advice on a machine that segfaults like it is its bloody job, I have clean reinstalled the system 5 times ran a memory and a HDD test (mem test whent through 5 passes and the HDD test twice) and the thing keeps segfaulting, it also BSODed on me when I was in windows trying to burn a disk (I have installed ubuntu hardy on this machine before and it worked fine no problems before my most recent clean install attempt) | 20:14 |

| saiki | Wrin: I know, ndiswrapper is soley for wifi cards | 20:14 |
| helm | saiki: jep (yes), but my stick still indicates being mounted | 20:14 |
| Wrin | @saiki: Oh...right, hence the acronym | 20:14 |
| helm | (well at least being accessed) | 20:14 |
| saiki | helm: refresh the display | 20:14 |
| mrwoody | wols: ok thanks.. but why proc doesn't give me any information regarding my sata drives? it does it with the eide drives | 20:15 |
| Moth | anyone else get spammed by TraberTaber | 20:15 |
| helm | saiki: my stick, not my display. The stick has an LED indicating that it's "mounted" | 20:15 |
| Wrin | saiki: So I did the install for ndiswrapper-common, and it tells me nothing happened | 20:15 |

| Thingus | Something ate gnome entirely... 0.o | 20:16 |

| Seveas | Thingus, join #ubuntu-ops to report spam :) | 20:16 |
| Wrin | Thingus: (I'm new to this) | 20:16 |
| saiki | Wrin: right, you still have in "install" the driver | 20:16 |
| eagle_02 | fellow with the broken stick drive the LED may just be a power indicator | 20:16 |
| wols | thinkgnu: how does dell provide the firmware? windows binary or DOS binary? | 20:16 |
| Thingus | Bah | 20:16 |
| Wrin | saiki: So what does that mean? | 20:16 |
| eagle_02 | it may not be a read write or a mounted thing at all | 20:16 |
| saiki | Thingus: ctrl + alt + f2 | 20:16 |
| Wrin | saiki: I'm used to windows :( | 20:16 |

| thinkgnu | wols: http://linux.dell.com/wiki/index.php/Repository/firmware | 20:17 |

| saiki | Wrin: where is the driver that you're trying to install? | 20:17 |
| saiki | it's a .inf | 20:17 |
| wols | thinkgnu: that page tells you what to do. if you need more help: ask Dell, not us. it's their stuff | 20:18 |
| Wrin | saiki: There's two, is the problem | 20:18 |
| Moth | can someone please ban EMU_Hurricane for spamming? | 20:18 |
| Wrin | saiki: I don't know which is which - both were in my network folder | 20:18 |
| igor47 | is there a guide to how to use upstart somewhere? how do i pick which daemons run/don't run on startup? | 20:18 |

| wols | igor47: update-rc.d or rcconf | 20:18 |
| iqson716 | hey! | 20:18 |

| Wrin | saiki: Did I need a ; or anything? | 20:23 |

| Hovefirse | Hiya folks. Just upgraded to hardy, everything looks fine. One question, though - are all hard disk drives (internal and external) referred to as sd* now? | 20:27 |
| robf | stop actin hard headed... | 20:27 |
| saiki | Wrin: modprobe ndiswrapper (no sudo needed) | 20:27 |

| dreamdemon1970 | robf: I'm currently using the live cd as we chat | 20:28 |
| Wrin | saiki: Operation not permitted | 20:28 |
| robf | dreamdemon1970: ah, then see if it works? | 20:28 |
| robf | google, howto [device] ubuntu | 20:28 |
| robf | heh I mean I dunno personally if it does or not | 20:28 |
| lakitu | can i uninstall xgl, somehow, without being logged in? | 20:29 |
| Dwerg | my installation CD-ROM couldn't be mounted. help? | 20:29 |
| alraune | rkpisanu: saw pm window ? | 20:29 |
| dreamdemon1970 | robf: Me either, hence why I came in here. I'm not even sure which apps on the live cd allow for tv grabbing | 20:29 |
| rkpisanu | yes | 20:29 |
| sara | salu | 20:29 |
| robf | dreamdemon1970: you can apt-get | 20:29 |

| === C is now known as Guest13179 | ||
| lakitu | geirha: then what (which option) | 20:30 |
| dreamdemon1970 | robf: Hence no one knows and I would prob get better results with google? | 20:30 |
| saiki | ... | 20:30 |
| saiki | ok, sudo it | 20:30 |
| robf | dreamdemon1970: apparently | 20:30 |
| helm | lakitu: There are a few tricks to get around the boot process or search for "single user moder ubuntu" on google | 20:30 |
| Wrin | saiki: Just went straight to prompt again | 20:30 |
| robf | but on that note, "ubuntu" isn't all of linux, try #linux, | 20:30 |

| robf | they know a lot of more esoteric answers | 20:31 |
| Hovefirse | Again: Hiya folks. Just upgraded to hardy, everything looks fine. One question, though - are all hard disk drives (internal and external) referred to as sd* now? At least I think that I previously had hd* for the "real hard disks" and sd* for the external, USB-drives. | 20:31 |
| === Guest13179 is now known as C | ||
| lakitu | i tried 'resume' & that didn't work | 20:31 |
| saiki | after sudo modprobe ndiswapper? | 20:31 |

| geirha | lakitu: boot into recovery mode, run «aptitude remove xserver-xgl», then boot normally | 20:31 |

| RivitingOne | ok, so I installed ubuntu 8.04 on an newly created partition (created using Norton partition magic) on an 80gig hard drive. I messed around, for a bit then tried to go back to windows. Windows was missing files, blah blah, said screw Microsoft so now I'm here. Ended up re installing ubuntu so that it would use the whole disk. I let it automatically select partitions. Now though, I only show 34 gigs available on the Filesystem. H | 20:47 |

| TiredWolf | !dualboot > YAOMTC | 21:06 |
| ubottu | YAOMTC, please see my private message | 21:06 |
| TiredWolf | YAOMTC, when *installing* Ubuntu, the installer will do its own partitioning, and will ask you - in case you have no unpartitioned space - if you want to shrink the Windows partition to make space. | 21:06 |
| TiredWolf | YAOMTC: however, shrinking a partition is always a potentially dangerous operation, so if you have important data, you should back up. | 21:07 |

| === root is now known as Guest80054 | ||
| === Guest80054 is now known as tocki | ||
| Ryan_Delaney | adac: sudo passwd | 21:29 |
| Slart | adac: if you want a root terminal run sudo -i | 21:29 |
| Ryan_Delaney | adac: but like he explained, it's not recommended to set a root password | 21:30 |
| Slart | adac: just enter your regular user password | 21:30 |
| histo | Is there a way to chmod 644 files recursively? | 21:30 |
| Myrtti | Ryan_Delaney: do not even teach them that command then | 21:30 |
| Slart | histo: -R | 21:30 |
| amirman | adac: why dont you use sudo? | 21:30 |
| histo | Slart: I've tried that i'm getting errors | 21:30 |
| adac | I know guys...I will be careful!! | 21:30 |
| Slart | chmod -R 644 /path/to/files/ | 21:30 |
| Ryan_Delaney | Myrtti: An interesting metadebate, I think people should have their questions answered and then warn them of the dangers | 21:30 |
| Slart | histo: what kind of errors? | 21:30 |
| Ryan_Delaney | Myrtti: It's not up to us to decide what the user wants to do :) | 21:31 |

| Flannel | adac: Why do you have the urge to set the root password? | 21:31 |
| * ice_cream chuckles at the thought of 'sudo visudo' | 21:31 | |
| amirman | jum: please do give me the script :) | 21:31 |
| Ryan_Delaney | A good question, there is really no reason to set a root password | 21:31 |
| histo | Slart: well i'm trying chmod -Rv 644 *.mp3 and i'm getting: failed to change mode of `*.mp3' to 3704 (rwx--Sr-T) | 21:31 |
| histo | Slart: I just want them to have normal permissions again I've copied them from my ntfs drive and the perms are all messed up. | 21:32 |
| adac | Flannel: I just wanted to know how to set the password. It is not that I will use it frequently | 21:32 |
| ice_cream | Ryan_Delaney, sure there is, depending on your sudoers settings | 21:32 |
| Slart | histo: do you own the files? | 21:32 |
| earthian | Hello, can somebody help me with an issue: i have over 4K of zombie processes here, my hdd is being read/writen and things are extremely slow. the task is like this from top: 305 earthian 35 15 0 0 0 Z 0.0 0.0 0:00.00 pinot-dbus-daem <defunct> | 21:32 |
| Flannel | adac: The fact that the password is set is "using it frequently", one benefit of using sudo is that the root account is locked. | 21:32 |
| joaopinto | earthian, uninstall pinot :) | 21:33 |
| Flannel | adac: Why are you wanting the root account locked though? Is it in case sudo breaks? or for a root shell? or what? | 21:33 |
| earthian | its seems that the hdd just stopped being that active and now i kinda already can write something that appears here not after i finish two lines | 21:33 |
| histo | Slart: hold on let me check they are in my ~/Music | 21:33 |
| adac | Flannel: root shell. probably logging in as root sometimes over ssh | 21:34 |
| earthian | pinot... whats that pinot anyway? :( | 21:34 |
| bandaLarga | hi, you know s/thing 'bout smartcards and linux? | 21:34 |
| Flannel | adac: For a root shell, you use sudo -i. Also, root should be disabled over SSH. | 21:34 |
| histo | Slart: yeah I own them. | 21:34 |
| histo | Slart: its histo histo | 21:34 |

| Flannel | histo: No, don't do that. It'll remove execute on all folders too. | 22:01 |
| anirudh0 | jshriver: running chkdsk in win cmd is your best shot | 22:01 |
| histo | Flannel: I know | 22:01 |
| cocolite | some one can tell me a kind of sniffer that i cant use in linux | 22:01 |
| fistandandelus | let me explain, i have 2 hdds one that i formatted and and installed ubuntu on.the other has 2 partitions one with data and the other with windows on it. if i install while both are connnected neither will boot. If i disconnect the windows hdd and install ubuntu...ubuntu will boot..i need both though | 22:01 |

| joaopinto | gfather, don't do that on a system folder | 22:02 |
| anirudh0 | fistandandelus: both are sata? | 22:02 |
| earthian | histo, 644 is read/write for owner and readonly for everybody else. while 755 ir read/write/execute by owner and read/execute by everybody else and while the mp3 are note executables, i do not see any harm.. | 22:02 |
| fistandandelus | the one im sntalling ubuntu on is sata | 22:02 |
| gfather | <histo>:) | 22:02 |
| joaopinto | gfather, chmod -R | 22:02 |
| earthian | i have 777 in my music folder | 22:02 |
| fistandandelus | the other is ide | 22:02 |
| earthian | so that form any user i can remove anything i want there | 22:03 |
| gfather | <joaopinto> its not a system folder ;) | 22:03 |

| histo | earthian: either way I'm trying to do it from ~/Music and they are in subfolders | 22:03 |
| Flannel | histo: You'll have to use find and chmod | 22:04 |
| anirudh0 | fistandandelus: wait for Jack_Sparrow :) | 22:04 |
| fistandandelus | ??? does that mean im out of luck? | 22:04 |

| ompaul | cocolite, it is the *new* version | 22:10 |
| soundray | RivitingOne: I would recommend creating an extended partition instead of sda2 at the end. Then you can further subdivide the space | 22:10 |
| anirudh0 | lopezmatias: check your filename..do "ls " | 22:10 |
| RivitingOne | Is there a way to set sda2 as the default install destination for packages? | 22:10 |
| Pupeno | RequinB4: not much help there. | 22:10 |
| HappyHater | Pupeno, and iso from what? | 22:10 |

| sytheticz | hi, is this the right channel for software problems? | 22:10 |
| anirudh0 | RivitingOne: ? | 22:10 |
| fistandandelus | im not sure what the means. Im asking id anyone has had experience installing and successfully booting ubuntu and windows on two hdds, one sata and one ide | 22:10 |
| Pupeno | sytheticz: if the software is Ubuntu. | 22:10 |
| soundray | sytheticz: you should know, you've received help here before | 22:10 |
| zvacet | Pupeno : isomaster is what you want | 22:10 |
| darkness__ | soundray: so you mean connecting with a phone line or having them connect out to the internet? | 22:10 |
| anirudh0 | RivitingOne: packages are installed in /usr mostly | 22:10 |
| sytheticz | ah, its Amsn this time | 22:11 |
| soundray | darkness__: either | 22:11 |
| anirudh0 | RivitingOne: so put /usr in sda2 | 22:11 |
| sytheticz | i thought it was third party so wasnt sure | 22:11 |
| RequinB4 | Pupeno - easiest is to use dd (man dd) - what are the source files? | 22:11 |
| Jack_Sparrow | fistandandelus and I said yes, but it is not a simple answer and you need to have the windows install on the right partition of the right drive | 22:11 |
| cwill747 | !burn | pupeno | 22:11 |

| ompaul | RivitingOne, not directly if you have, that as your /usr partition or /var so you can put the packages there .. that is not trivial it needs editing a file called /etc/fstab and if you get that wrong you will not have a working system | 22:11 |
| darkness__ | soundray: well I can connect one to the other in the same room, I just can't connect the Windows machine to the internet | 22:11 |

| Maxflax | linxeh - I found some other drivers that some guy Manu made.. don't work.. | 22:20 |

| zvacet | RivitingOne : select manual way and delete root partition and on that free space make reinstall is that what are you asked for | 22:36 |
| Jack_Sparrow | soundray we can continue this later when it is less busy. | 22:36 |
| RivitingOne | zvacet maybe lol | 22:36 |

| Jack_Sparrow | Pupeno HOw many times are you going to ask the same question and ignore the answer | 22:39 |
| zvacet | RivitingOne : cat /etc/fstab and paste it here with pastebin | 22:39 |
| Pupeno | Jack_Sparrow: I'm not ignoring the answers. There was no convincing answer. According to what I read, you can't really make iso images out of audio cds. | 22:40 |
| Jack_Sparrow | RivitingOne sudo apt-get install pastebinit && cat /etc/fstab | pastebinit | 22:40 |
| ArtimusDeathhole | is there anyone here with experience in regards to partman-auto-raid? I am looking for some assistance making a recipe | 22:40 |

| leachim6 | an ISO can contain any filesystem.... | 22:41 |
| Pupeno | leachim6: does an audio cd contain a file system? | 22:41 |
| lopezmatias | lol | 22:41 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Pupeno that was the first I saw that you were trying to do audio cd's | 22:42 |
| mpsan | Does anyone know what happened to MC midnight commander? apt-get does not find it. | 22:42 |
| Pupeno | Jack_Sparrow: what? | 22:42 |
| TiredWolf | Pupeno: no, well you could say it does since it obviously contains a list of tracks and where to find them, but not a filesystem in the common meaning | 22:42 |
| Jack_Sparrow | Pupeno YOu are correct, audio cds are not going to work like that | 22:42 |
| Pupeno | TiredWolf: what matters if it is a file system accoding to the iso specification. | 22:43 |
| * leachim6 was wrong | 22:43 | |
| leachim6 | :( | 22:43 |

| iqson716 | ? | 22:44 |
| TiredWolf | Pupeno: a so-called "iso" image of a CD is simply a byte-by-byte copy of the CD contents, if that's what you mean. it doesn't care at all what is contained in the CD. | 22:44 |
| RivitingOne | Jack_Sparrow & zvacet http://pastebin.com/f2e92e8d7 | 22:44 |
| soundray | Pupeno: you can use abcde in conjunction with flac encoding and the mkcue utility to make lossless compressed archives from audio CDs | 22:44 |
| Pupeno | TiredWolf: have you read the link that I've sent? have you tried making an image of an audio cd with any software? | 22:45 |
| gregge | Hmm.. I killed pulseaudio, and all of a sudden the audio worked again | 22:45 |
| Pupeno | soundray: will the resulting CD have the same musicbrainz and freedb IDs? | 22:45 |
| Pupeno | soundray: I don't care about compresion. | 22:45 |
| soundray | Pupeno: yes (as those IDs are generated from the "cue sheet" | 22:45 |

| RivitingOne | Jack_Sparrow well, it has evolved. I'm trying to figure out if I need to reinstall from scratch or not. I have a 55gig partition I can't use atm. | 22:50 |
| Gnea | sebas8911: yeah, i killed localedef everytime something locked up | 22:50 |
| RivitingOne | Says I don't have permission | 22:50 |

| Jack_Sparrow | zvacet great, sounds like you have it handled | 22:51 |
| Gnea | sebas8911: ultimately, the problem is that it needs the kernel from the new distribution in order to generate the locales | 22:51 |

| Shujah | metheon, you can do that easily in gnu0cash | 23:02 |
| zaputr | How can i set conky to autostart? | 23:02 |
| Gnea | R0b0t1: just remove all of the files in your cache before restarting | 23:02 |
| R0b0t1 | Where is the said cache? | 23:02 |
| soundray | metheon: gnucash definitely has a learning curve, but it sounds like you would benefit immensely from doing your budget properly, as it were. | 23:03 |
| unop | R0b0t1, move ~/.mozilla/firefox to ~/.mozilla/firefox.bak | 23:03 |
| Z_Man | Swian, I tried once, it never worked too well for me | 23:03 |
| R0b0t1 | No such file | 23:03 |
| Gnea | R0b0t1: ~/.mozilla/firefox/<profile>/Cache/ | 23:03 |

| Sonderblade | i installed the linux-image-2.6.24 package, shouldn't dpkg automatically take care of making that imagethe default? | 23:04 |
| Gnea | R0b0t1: i'd do it like this: find ~/.mozilla/firefox/<profile>/Cache/ -type -f -exec rm -f {} | 23:04 |
| Gnea | oop | 23:04 |
| Gnea | R0b0t1: i'd do it like this: find ~/.mozilla/firefox/<profile>/Cache/ -type -f -exec rm -f {} \; | 23:04 |
| unop | R0b0t1, well don't delete it just yet, you might want to retrieve things like bookmarks, etc later | 23:04 |
| Jack_Sparrow | R0b0t1 You might try disconnecting from the internet opening ff and purging the cache and personal stuff | 23:04 |
| soundray | Sonderblade: it ensures that next time you boot, you'll boot to the new kernel. | 23:05 |
| R0b0t1 | Jack_Sparrow: Thanks | 23:05 |

| RivitingOne | Jack_Sparrow It looks like my partition is showing up as media | 23:05 |
| R0b0t1 | It willl | 23:06 |
| R0b0t1 | I have three partitions, they all show up as drives. | 23:06 |
| Z_Man | R0b0t1, isnt that what every OS does? | 23:06 |
| soundray | Sonderblade: the post-installation script normally calls update-grub. You could call 'sudo update-grub' manually and see if it reports a problem. | 23:06 |
| R0b0t1 | That I've seen, yes | 23:06 |
| Z_Man | haha. yeah.\ | 23:06 |
| RivitingOne | oh, well then ... lol | 23:07 |
| Gnea | RivitingOne: unless they're specifically set to a certain partition, that's exactly what will happen | 23:07 |
| R0b0t1 | Yes, lol. | 23:07 |
| R0b0t1 | Hopefully, if I disconn from the internet, I should be able to open up FF but nothing will load... And then close that fucking tab | 23:07 |
| Jack_Sparrow | RivitingOne mounts in /media will show up on desktop | 23:07 |
| Jack_Sparrow | R0b0t1 Watch the language | 23:07 |
| Sonderblade | soundray: it seems to have updated menu.lst now, when i aptitude purged some kernels. but not before that | 23:07 |
| R0b0t1 | Sorry, I meant: "F#$&*g tab" | 23:08 |
| RivitingOne | Jack_Sparrow ok, so why can't I access it? Do I need to delete and redo the partition with a different mount point? | 23:08 |

| Jack_Sparrow | RivitingOne First, check the ownership: Open a terminal and type cd /media ...then type... ls -la ...then, do the following, replacing “yourPartition” with the name of the partition (e.g. /sdb1)... sudo chown -R username:username /media/yourPartition (On a live system you must create a user name first) followed by... sudo chmod -R 755 /media/yourPartition ...
