[00:00] <CyberGabber> comphappy: Try changing the resolution, by simultanisly pressing CTRL-ALT an the Plus or Minus key
[00:00] <burhan> comphappy: try sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[00:00] <comphappy> burhan i did that
[00:00] <Dazed> Here's another one... Since all my drives are ntfs, and I just did this in windows install... I can still see all the data from my 4 other HDs but it seems like it has to mount them first... Like, on my desktop theres nothing, but when I go to "places" and click on of my drives, it opens, its icon changes, and a shortcut is palced on the desktop... How can I have all my drives mount automatically on startup so I always
[00:00] <Dazed> I tried just "make link" but it wouldnt work on them
[00:01] <burhan> !ntfs | Dazed see the wiki link
[00:01] <mut80r> dazed: add the partitions to  /etc/fstab   after you transfer it to a dedicated partition, and use   mount -a
[00:01] <comphappy> CyberGabber:that does nothing
[00:01] <burhan> comphappy: yeah, that won't work since you are on ssh.
[00:01] <Dazed> what is fstab?
[00:01] <burhan> comphappy: the ctrl+alt trick.
[00:01] <comphappy> burhan: that was on the computer
[00:01] <comphappy> not over ssh i know that...
[00:01] <mut80r> dazed:   open /etc/fstab  and it has description in the comments
[00:02] <meoblast001> ok... i've been being the idiot who's been using ubuntu desktop on a server..... i want to user ubuntu server.. but how do you remote administer with a command line?
[00:02] <mut80r> I have to go now
[00:02] <ianliu_89> What are the formalities to add GPL License to my project (programming project)?
[00:02] <mut80r> cya guys
[00:02] <burhan> comphappy: not sure how much I can help you then -- except maybe find you the cli-equivalent of whatever you are looking for in the gui.
[00:02] <burhan> meoblast001: you learn the command line :)
[00:02] <aechols> this may sound really, really dumb, but i gotta know
[00:02] <meoblast001> burhan: but how do i do it without having a monitor hooked up the the server
[00:02] <Dr_willis> Dazed,  learning the ins and outs of the /etc/fstab file  is on my 'top 10' things every new user should learn about.. to become a  user at the next level. :P   heh. I gotta write that list down sometime
[00:03] <aechols> is there an application that will organize coupons for Linux?
[00:03] <comphappy> burhan: there is not anything specificly that i need in the gui, i was just wanting to see if i could get it to work
[00:03] <burhan> ianliu_89: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html
[00:03] <jane_> oi
[00:03] <burhan> meoblast001: you remote into it over ssh (secure shell)
[00:03] <Anonym10> hi
[00:03] <Dr_willis> aechols,  sort of like a  Virtual refrigrator - with virtual magnets holding the virtual cupons? :) thats what my wife uses... (well a real fridge)
[00:03] <meoblast001> burhan: is that all preinstalled?
[00:03] <Dazed> Dr_willis: does that link i was given encompass those?
[00:04] <Dr_willis> Dazed,  probverly  - if not a google for fstab, will have dozens if not 100' s+ of examples...
[00:04] <kendra> grr baby grr
[00:04] <jane_> hummm
[00:04] <Dazed> good call
[00:04] <kendra> my neck
[00:04] <kendra> my back
[00:04] <kendra> lick my pussy
[00:04] <kendra> and my crack
[00:04] <FloodBot1> kendra: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[00:04] <Dazed> Ive only been using linux for less than 2 days
[00:05] <Dazed> I'm not sure if Im ready for the next level ;)
[00:05] <aechols> Dr_willis: I just don't feel like taking the time to create a database for the coupons, that's why i was wondering.
[00:05] <dmsuperman> ...
[00:05] <dmsuperman> !ot | kendra
[00:05] <meoblast001> kendra: bubba... dont do that plz..... this is a family support channel
[00:05] <dmsuperman> actually
[00:05] <dmsuperman> !ohmy | kendra
[00:05] <meoblast001> dmsuperman: thats my sister... she has a freind over who doesnt understand =P
[00:06] <dmsuperman> meoblast001: kindly ask her to leave?
[00:06] <meoblast001> dmsuperman: i screamed bubba dont do that lol
[00:07] <meoblast001> anyways
[00:07] <meoblast001> secure shell
[00:07] <meoblast001> how do i do that?
[00:08] <Joyal> hi, i have a dell inspiron with windows vista, and dell system has a special boot record for the recovery option, i was wondering if i install the ubuntu via Wubi, and if i uninstall the ubuntu, wubi get back the original MBR ?
[00:08] <Dazed> I think so
[00:08] <aechols> Joyal, I don't believe it modifies your partitions or mbr at all via wubi
[00:08] <Dazed> it wouldnt make sense to keep offering yo boot linux at the start when you dont have it anymore
[00:08] <aechols> it installs like an application
[00:09] <burhan> meoblast001: sudo apt-get install openssh-server on your server
[00:09] <meoblast001> how do i install ubuntu server without a monitor is what i should have said
[00:09] <meoblast001> no monitor at all
[00:09] <meoblast001> through the whole process
[00:09] <burhan> meoblast001: then, install a ssh client (like PuTTY for Windows) or use the command 'ssh' from your linux computer to connect to the server.
[00:09] <nDuff> meoblast001, serial console?
[00:09] <Joyal> i will try then
[00:09] <spyrorocks> I am having issues installing virtualbox. I get this error" The following packages have unmet dependencies:   virtualbox-ose-modules-generic: Depends: virtualbox-ose-modules-2.6.24-20-generic but it is not going to be installed E: Broken packages "
[00:09] <Joyal> thx
[00:10] <meoblast001> nDuff: whats that?
[00:10] <burhan> meoblast001: pxe
[00:10] <meoblast001> burhan: i think my system has that
[00:10] <meoblast001> but how do i use it?
[00:10] <spyrorocks> I get that error when I try to run "sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose virtualbox-ose-source virtualbox-ose-modules-generic"
[00:10] <nDuff> meoblast001, hook up one of your serial ports to another computer, build custom install media which puts console=ttyS0 on the kernel command line, and boot it up via either a CD-ROM drive or a network device. I haven't actually done that with Ubuntu, but it works great for Anaconda-based installers.
[00:10] <aechols> spyrorocks, what's the error?
[00:11] <meoblast001> nDuff: woah!!!
[00:11] <spyrorocks> I get this error" The following packages have unmet dependencies: virtualbox-ose-modules-generic: Depends: virtualbox-ose-modules-2.6.24-20-generic but it is not going to be installed E: Broken packages "
[00:11] <nDuff> meoblast001, see http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/3215/
[00:11] <meoblast001> burhan: yeah i think im gonna want to know how to start up PXE.... nDuff's explanation was complex
[00:11] <meoblast001> my server has PXE i think
[00:11] <nDuff> meoblast001, heh; I do PXE all the time w/ RHEL/CentOS clients, but haven't done it w/ Ubuntu yet.
[00:11] <meoblast001> nDuff: teach me =D
[00:12] <aechols> sounds like you need to install the newer modules
[00:12] <aechols> one sec
[00:12] <nDuff> meoblast001, hmm... you might look at Cobbler for Ubuntu
[00:12] <spyrorocks> I am attempting to follow the instructions for hardy on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox
[00:12] <nDuff> meoblast001, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CobblerSpec
[00:12] <dev_n00b> Can anyone help me install UBUNTU using WUBI on a Netcell RAID card under Vista?
[00:12] <carl_> trying to run     carl@carl-desktop:~$ sh hplip-2.8.5.run
[00:12] <carl_> sh: Can't open hplip-2.8.5.run
[00:12] <carl_>   Why am I getting this?
[00:12] <spyrorocks> aechols: OK
[00:12] <meoblast001> nDuff: =/.... i didnt install Ubuntu server yet so i cant install packages
[00:12] <burhan> meoblast001: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/#Server%20and%20network%20installations
[00:13] <meoblast001> nDuff: if i have to i can drag a monitor in here but i dont want to
[00:13] <Dazed> is there a simple way to give my wubi installed ubuntu more HD real estate?
[00:13] <nDuff> meoblast001, eh? no, you install cobbler on a *different* system, the one you're going to be using as your PXE server
[00:13] <Dazed> Is there a tool in wubi to just adjust the size or something
[00:13] <burhan> carl_: where is that file?
[00:13] <unop> carl_, you probably don't have the right permissions on the file
[00:13] <carl_> on the desktop
[00:13] <burhan> carl_: cd Desktop first
[00:13] <nDuff> meoblast001, you have some working system on the same network you can ssh into, right?
[00:13] <carl_> I checked the promissions under properties
[00:14] <aechols> spyrorocks: try - sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose-modules-2.6.24-20-generic
[00:14] <unop> carl_, what does this return?  ls -l hplip-2.8.5.run
[00:14] <aechols> instead for your modules
[00:14] <spyrorocks> aechols: OK will try
[00:14] <meoblast001> nDuff: my server is currently on with Ubuntu Desktop installed... i just want to save us energy and save my CPU the work
[00:14] <spyrorocks> alexanderwz:
[00:14] <spyrorocks> aechols: The following packages have unmet dependencies:   virtualbox-ose-modules-2.6.24-20-generic: Depends: linux-image-2.6.24-20-generic but it is not installable E: Broken packages
[00:14] <nDuff> meoblast001, oh. You don't need to reinstall, then, just turn off the X server.
[00:14] <burhan> meoblast001: then what's the problem? You just want to unplug the monitor?
[00:14] <serkan`c> carl_: did you try ./hplip-2.8.5.run ?
[00:15] <carl_> ls: cannot access hplip-2.8.5.run: No such file or directory
[00:15] <meoblast001> nDuff: how do i make it so X server wont launch every time the system starts?
[00:15] <aechols> spyro: open a terminal and type - uname -a
[00:15] <burhan> carl_: sh Desktop/hplip-2.8.5.run
[00:15] <spyrorocks> aechols: Linux brad-laptop 2.6.24-19-generic #1 SMP Fri Jul 11 23:41:49 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
[00:16] <unop> carl_, burhan - might want to make that more specific.  sh ~/Desktop/hplip-2.8.5.run
[00:16] <meoblast001> nDuff: if i have webmin, do i need openssh?
[00:16] <burhan> meoblast001: sudo update-rc.d stop gdm should do it.
[00:16] <nDuff> meoblast001, webmin is Teh Evil. :)
[00:16] <burhan> unop: he's already in his home directory
[00:16] <unop> burhan, don't mean to be picky -- don't think the order is right there :)
[00:16] <aechols> spyro: did you install kernel 2.6.24-20-generic at any point?
[00:16] <zk> does anyone use CNR client?
[00:16] <meoblast001> nDuff: it gets the job done =P
[00:16] <carl_> Thanks that worked
[00:16] <nDuff> meoblast001, ...I don't trust it for serious administration, though much that attitude may go back a decade or so. :)
[00:16] <Phantom-X> one package i miss for ubuntu
[00:17] <Phantom-X> is tkzinc
[00:17] <Mr_Awesome> when i start seq24, are connection points expected to appear the "connections" window of the JACK control? for me, none appear.
[00:17] <nDuff> meoblast001, circa 1997, webmin was a bundle of security holes and much slower than just shelling in and using vi.
[00:17] <burhan> nDuff: webmin is not supported under debian anyway.
[00:17] <spyrorocks> aechols: I don't think so
[00:17] <meoblast001> nDuff: how do i get someone to stop PM spaming me?
[00:17] <dev_n00b> I have a PNY S-CURE Raid card based on the Netcell chipset.  May I use WUBI to install Ubuntu on the RAID 0 array on it?
[00:17] <nDuff> meoblast001, /ignore is your friend
[00:17] <tanner> is there anyway to make linux appear as a drive if plugged in via eSATA ? (im trying to build an external soft raid 5 array with lvm and want it to look like a drive to any other operating system)
[00:17] <spyrorocks> aechols: I just installed ubuntu yesterday on this band new laptop
[00:17] <spyrorocks> aechols: I am a bit of a linux noob so I might have while i was trying to install the right packages
[00:17] <aechols> spyro: then type the sudo apt-get install virtualbox-ose-modules-2.6.24-19-generic
[00:18] <meoblast001> nDuff: so teach me how to setup ssh
[00:18] <meoblast001> nDuff: also teach me how to get /home/user/services/services to run on startup without Gnome
[00:18] <noname> hi all
[00:19] <burhan> meoblast001: sudo apt-get install openssh-server, man update-rc.d
[00:19] <nDuff> meoblast001, I have a day job, which I'm actually working on. I don't have time to help you with everything you might want -- and phrasing things as demands rather than polite requests (or making requests for support to one person rather than the channel as a whole) is bad manners anyhow.
[00:19] <meoblast001> nDuff: im sorry.... thank you for helping me with what you already did
[00:19] <aechols> spyro: that working for you/
[00:19] <aechols> ?
[00:19] <meoblast001> nDuff: sorry.. im not good at remembering please.. but i usually remember thank you
[00:20] <burhan> tanner: please rephrase your question -- as it didn't make sense to me. You cannot make linux appear like a drive, linux is an OS. Its like saying I want Vista to appear as a drive.
[00:20] <noname> Hi all, can anybody help me with flash please?
[00:20] <tanner> except linux is vastly more versitle
[00:21] <burhan> tanner: I'm not sure how that solves your problem though :)
[00:21] <tanner> you're scope is far too limited
[00:21] <noname> ALL: can anybody help me with flash please?
[00:21] <noname> it would be GREATLY appreciated! :)
[00:21] <nDuff> tanner, not sure about eSATA. You can certainly do exports via iSCSI easily enough.
[00:21] <spyrorocks> aechols: just a sec
[00:22] <eblume> Hi - I've been having troubles setting up an Atheros chipset wireless device on a laptop, and through using dmesg and lspci/lsmod, I've found what I believe to be the error: the laptop has the wireless device switched OFF. Unfortunately the switch to turn it ON again is touch-sensitive, and doesn't seem to respond.
[00:22] <meoblast001> burhan: how do i connect to openssh?
[00:22] <aechols> aight
[00:22] <eblume> Any ideas on how I can enable this button?
[00:22] <nDuff> noname, don't ask for volunteers before we know what your question is
[00:22] <nDuff> noname, "with flash" isn't very specific
[00:22] <nDuff> noname, ...so just ask your question, and anyone who knows will speak up.
[00:22] <burhan> meoblast001: what is the operating system of the machine you are trying to connect from?
[00:22] <spyrorocks> aechols: Unpacking replacement virtualbox-ose-modules-2.6.24-19-generic ... Setting up virtualbox-ose-modules-2.6.24-19-generic (24.0.4) ...
[00:22] <spyrorocks> looks like it worked
[00:22] <unop> meoblast001,  ssh username@server
[00:22] <aechols> Cool
[00:22] <spyrorocks> lets see if virtualbox runs
[00:23] <aechols> Use the specific module for your kernel
[00:23] <aechols> that is what was causing your issue
[00:23] <spyrorocks> " The VirtualBox kernel driver is not accessible to the current user. Make sure that the user has write permissions for /dev/vboxdrv by adding them to the vboxusers groups. You will need to logout for the change to take effect.. VBox status code: -1909 (VERR_VM_DRIVER_NOT_ACCESSIBLE).   Result Code:  0x80004005 Component:  Console Interface:  IConsole {1dea5c4b-0753-4193-b909-22330f64ec45}   "
[00:23] <noname> sure, aechelos already took the question
[00:23] <aechols> spyro: go to system -> administration -> users and groups
[00:23] <burhan> spyrorocks: system > admin > users and groups, click unlock, then add yourself to vboxusers
[00:24] <aechols> add yourself to the vbox users groupd
[00:24] <spyrorocks> sudo adduser brad vboxusers
[00:24] <spyrorocks> ?
[00:24] <burhan> spyrorocks: no.
[00:24] <spyrorocks> ok just wondering if that would work
[00:24] <spyrorocks> trying to learn a bit more about linux
[00:24] <eblume> So does anyone know about enabling touch-sensitive wireless-lan buttons on HP laptops?
[00:25] <burhan> spyrorocks: the cli version would be sudo usermod -a -G vboxusers
[00:25] <Cdilling> hey all
[00:25] <burhan> spyrorocks: the cli version would be sudo usermod -a -G vboxusers *youraccount*
[00:25] <keri> hello   I play on facebook and it keeps saying that I need to update my flash player.   I have flash player 9 and someone just helped me download and install adobe flash player and had me go to utube to see if it worked and that tells me that javascript is off or i need to update flash player.     can anyone in here help me
[00:26] <unop> burhan, his adduser command has the same effect
[00:26] <squeakypants> hey
[00:26] <spyrorocks> OK, so It said i was already a user
[00:26] <spyrorocks> do I need to restart?
[00:26] <squeakypants> just to be clear, the automatic resize operation when installing ubuntu won't reformat the drive?
[00:26] <squeakypants> like, it will preserve the data?
[00:26] <unop> spyrorocks, logging out should be enough
[00:26] <spyrorocks> ok
[00:26] <spyrorocks> will logout

[00:29] <dmsuperman> Where do screenlets keep their configuration settings?
[00:30] <burhan> dmsuperman: ~/.screenlets
[00:30] <unop> dmsuperman, in ~/.screenlets or ~/.config/screenlets perhaps
[00:30] <aechols> spyro: what you were doing from the command line will work sudo adduser brad vboxusers
[00:30] <dmsuperman> .screenlets/SimpleTwitter/ only contains .py files, .pyc files, and a .svg file
[00:30] <burhan> dmsuperman: my ~/.screenlets/ only has config.ini

[00:31] <dmsuperman> it's not saving my twitter password
[00:31] <dmsuperman> so I just want ot hard code it into the config
[00:31] <burhan> dmsuperman: could be a bug or a permission issue -- maybe its trying to write to somewhere it shouldn't.
[00:31] <aechols> spyro: working now?

[00:32] <ChokingHazard> hi I'm trying to get a geforce 8600gt to work so I'm using nvidia's installer that requires me to provide the filepath to kernel source. can anyone help me understand specifically what kernel source of devfile is needed and what the filepath might be?
[00:32] <aechols> spyro: what you wanted to do earlier from the command line for the user -> group, would've worked just finre
[00:32] <spyrorocks> never mind works now
[00:33] <spyrorocks> aechols: Thanks for your help
[00:33] <spyrorocks> I really appreciate it.
[00:33] <burhan> dmsuperman: its pprobably a security issue, I would suggest checking with the developer.
[00:34] <spyrorocks> woah
[00:34] <spyrorocks> windows installs in virtualbox faster than on a pc
[00:34] <burhan> ChokingHazard: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname -r`
[00:34] <burhan> spyrorocks: that's normal :)
[00:35] <spyrorocks> definatly
[00:35] <spyrorocks> :)
[00:35] <spyrorocks> along with firefox rendering faster
[00:35] <spyrorocks> and nothing crashing.
[00:35] <burhan> I meant, that's normal even if installing in a vm running on a windows host

[00:37] <Dazed> ﻿can i increase the antialiasing quality on my 3d desktop?
[00:37] <unop> keri, when you navigate to about:plugins .. is flash listed there?
[00:37] <burhan> bj1: it only needs multiple nic if you are using it as a gateway or firewall between two networks, otherwise, just one nic in promiscuous mode should work.
[00:37] <eblume> Hi - I'm bashing my head trying to get an Atheros AR5007 chip working on my laptop, and after observing dmesg messages and googling, I think my issue is that the laptop's touch-sensitive wireless on/off switch is off.
[00:37] <burhan> sigmounte: try the launchpad page for it.
[00:37] <sigmounte> burhan, any url of this page ?
[00:37] <burhan> eblume: stop bashing your head against the switch :P
[00:38] <eblume> Does anyone know how to get an HP touch sensitive wireless button to turn on?
[00:38] <eblume> burhan, heh.
[00:38] <zenlunatic> eblume: best guess BIOS
[00:38] <Cdilling> hey has anyone used kismet?
[00:38] <eblume> zenlunatic, I checked the BIOS, and it's some crazy reduced bios by HP.
[00:38] <keri> unop,  let me see
[00:38] <bj1> burhan: so to monitor internet usage, it dosnt need to be between my modem and my router?
[00:38] <eblume> zenlunatic, only has maybe 5 options. Boot order and time.
[00:39] <meoblast001> ahhh host key verification failed
[00:39] <marcus_> hey--is it possible to use flushbox on ubuntu?
[00:39] <marcus_> i think this default gui is too heavy for my pc
[00:39] <Dazed> ﻿can i increase the antialiasing quality on my 3d desktop somehow?
[00:39] <the_darkside_986> I'm having an awful time with ndiswrapper. I did everything I normally do--install the Windows 64-bit driver as usual, sudo modprobe ndiswrapper, and list it, and it states the hardware is present. But there is still no wireless in iwconfig or the task bar.
[00:39] <dmsuperman> For some reason one of my windows has no borders...restarting compiz and even my computer won't fix it
[00:39] <burhan> bj1: not necessarily.
[00:39] <dmsuperman> It appears to be in like fullscreen mode, and I can't resize it
[00:39] <keri> unop,  no
[00:39] <burhan> sigmounte: try https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity
[00:40] <lazertek_> is there a way i can access the opendns sever if there is not dns set on my router?
[00:40] <burhan> lazertek_: sure, just set the dns servers manually from network settings.
[00:40] <Cdilling> anyone use kismet?
[00:41] <burhan> marcus_: try xubuntu
[00:41] <meoblast001> why is webmin returning "root" for whoami?
[00:41] <lazertek_> burhan: i manually set it in the resolv.conf file but that didn't seem to work
[00:41] <PrivateRolf> Can someone help me fix my fstab so that USB devices auto mount? http://pastebin.com/m56eeff47
[00:41] <meoblast001> i just want openssh to work
[00:41] <keri> unop: http://pastebin.com/m34175ab8
[00:41] <Dazed> Have any of you heard of ATI Tray Tools/ knows of a suitable windows equivalent? I can't in good conscience put catalyst control center on my pc..
[00:42] <burhan> lazertek_: after you set it, you need to flush your dns cache. I'm not sure how to do it, I just restart networking.
[00:42] <lavish> marcus_: wtf is flushbox?
[00:42] <meoblast001> what is this http://pastebin.com/d56f3a456 ?
[00:42] <Dazed> suitable linux equivalent rather
[00:42] <burhan> meoblast001: I already told you how to do that 40 minutes back.
[00:42] <lavish> marcus_: do you mean fluxbox?
[00:42] <ChokingHazard> burhan: I don't understand what goes in the uname
[00:42] <bj1> burhan: im a little confused now, perhaps networks dont work the way i thought, if i connected this box to my switch, i didnt think it would see any of the traffic of going between the router and the other clients
[00:42] <burhan> ChokingHazard: its literally as I typed it.
[00:42] <lazertek_> burhan: restart network... how?
[00:42] <PrivateRolf> Dazed, have you tried the fglrx driver?
[00:42] <burhan> lazertek_: if you restart your network, your resolv.conf will get overwritten by your router -- I assume you are on DHCP.
[00:42] <Dazed> no.. and its not the driver i want, its the control center
[00:43] <marcus_> oh yeah fluxbox
[00:43] <Dazed> ati tray tools is like a stripped down pimping version of catalyst control center
[00:43] <lavish> marcus_: why shouldn't be possible?
[00:43] <burhan> ChokingHazard: just type it literally, with the ` `
[00:43] <Dazed> does that driver have a control center thingy?
[00:43] <squeakypants> hmm
[00:43] <ChokingHazard> ohh
[00:43] <meoblast001> burhan?
[00:43] <squeakypants> in the ubuntu installer
[00:43] <burhan> meoblast001: sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[00:43] <PrivateRolf> Need fstab help to automount usb devices. http://pastebin.com/m56eeff47
[00:43] <squeakypants> when it resizes a partition, will it preserve its data?
[00:44] <lazertek_> burhan: yes dhcp... so how do i come about do to this?
[00:44] <burhan> squeakypants: best to take a backup.
[00:44] <PrivateRolf> Depends how you resize it squeaky.
[00:44] <sigmounte> anyone know what the kernel parameter "tasks=standard"  do ? (on installer )
[00:44] <the_darkside_986> My wireless started working unexpectedly. But I am still having trouble installing nvidia drivers, I keep getting a 404 error when trying to enable it in Hardware Drivers. This is Hardy 64-bit.
[00:44] <burhan> lazertek_: you can alter your dhcp options to ignore or override the dns settings from your modem.
[00:44] <keri> unop:  what do i need to do now?
[00:44] <squeakypants> well what if i just do the "guided" thing
[00:44] <Dr_willis> PrivateRolf,  err.. if you have an entry in the fstab. that can override the automounting of  media when you plug them in.
[00:44] <meoblast001> burhan: i did
[00:45] <Dr_willis> PrivateRolf,  unless you set up the fstab to allow users to mount a speficic device
[00:45] <burhan> meoblast001: then that's it, its running.
[00:45] <meoblast001> burhan: did you read the warning it got?
[00:45] <meoblast001> http://pastebin.com/d56f3a456
[00:45] <PrivateRolf> ah, so just delete the line?
[00:45] <PrivateRolf> Er..comment it out?
[00:45] <Dr_willis> PrivateRolf,  no idea. :) depends on the specifics. you could always try commenting it out
[00:45] <PrivateRolf> Alright.
[00:46] <TheDude> ANYBODY: Hi all, I have ubuntu amd64 8.04 Hardy and I'm having trouble viewing the videos on thedailyshow web site, my flash player works fine on youtube, but it won't work on thedailyshow's web site, could anybody help me please? It would be greatly appreciated!
[00:46] <burhan> lazertek_: open /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf as root, then either uncomment line 18 ( #prepend domain-name-servers 127.0.0.1; ), or remove domain-name-servers, (with the comma) from the next line, and save your file.

[00:47] <burhan> meoblast001: rm /home/braden/.ssh/known_hosts

[00:54] <unop> keri, ok.  try this then.   sudo cp /home/keri/libflash*so /usr/lib/firefox/plugins
[00:54] <zelrikriando> Cdilling, dont ask to ask ask :)
[00:54] <burhan> meoblast001: where you figure out that sudo gdm stop would do that?
[00:54] <unop> TheDude, not sure why that is .. does thedailyshow website use flash at all?
[00:54] <meoblast001> burhan: it always worked for me =P
[00:55] <meoblast001> burhan: or has it?
[00:55] <meoblast001> idk
[00:55] <burhan> meoblast001: it never worked for you :)

[00:56] <Cdilling> when i run iwconfig eth0 mode monitor
[00:56] <burhan> meoblast001: why would it not connect? Its not like you shut off vnc.
[00:57] <meoblast001> burhan: how do i shut off vnc?
[00:57] <owen1> any good video editing app?
[00:57] <burhan> meoblast001: the same way you shut off gdm
[00:57] <meoblast001> burhan: i dont know the name of the default installed vnc server
[00:57] <Dr_willis> meoblast001,  if you ran vncserver manually, theres the 'vncserver -kill :1' or similer command... be carefull you dont typo and spawn another one.
[00:57] <Cdilling> okay so I have a SET failed on Device error?
[00:58] <burhan> meoblast001: ps aux | grep vnc will tell you

[01:00] <burhan> mar77i: bad download?
[01:00] <mrpockets> HEY!
[01:00] <meoblast001> how do i make stuff not start with my system...... example... GDM
[01:00] <mar77i> and make[1]: [build-stamp] error 2
[01:01] <unop> mar77i,  does the installation procedure actually require you use make?
[01:01] <mrpockets> Just got Endian firewall set up, and I'm able to get internet connectivity on this box in Windows, so I know configurations are proper. However in Ubuntu I can't seem to get out to the internet
[01:01] <unop> mar77i, check the README file for exact instructions
[01:01] <mrpockets> I can get as far out as the firewall, but for some reason can't get beyond that
[01:01] <mar77i> the installation is a run file with the whole stuff packed...
[01:02] <unop> meoblast001, sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove
[01:02] <duiu> I have a samba share mapped with a network drive on WinXP, with the username/pass auto-saved. Now I can only access the share thorugh the mapped drive, and by typine in \\servername\sharename in the Explorer Bar because I get an error 'already connected' message? What parameter do I have to change in smb.conf to allow multiple logins?
[01:02] <unop> mar77i, you might be ok just running the .run file then .. but i can't say, you really ought to follow instructions from the vendor/author
[01:02] <meoblast001> unop: now how do i add /home/user/services/services ? =P
[01:03] <lunch> in dhcp3 server, how to kill leased ips without restarting dhcp server?

[01:04] <Cdilling> can anyone help me with my wireless config
[01:04] <meoblast001> unop: omg.. can you explain that and what its doing?
[01:04] <Dazed> How do i change/disable the login sound?
[01:04] <burhan> lunch: I believe it stores them in a plain text file -- can't remember the exact path as I don't have access to my server from the house.
[01:04] <unop> meoblast001, refer to the update-rc.d manpage
[01:05] <Jordan_U> Dazed: System -> Preferences -> Sounds IIRC
[01:05] <lunch> burhan, i have the path... /var/log.....somthign
[01:05] <unop> meoblast001, actually ..   make  sudo ln -svf ...   sudo ln -sv ...
[01:05] <burhan> lunch: it should be in your conf file the exact path to it.
[01:05] <meoblast001> unop: explain those

[01:06] <meoblast001> i always hit the x =P
[01:07] <unop> bj1, yes .. set the virtual host to listen on the private address only
[01:07] <deniz__> meoblast001: lol, well u can always open a new tab then close the previous one
[01:07] <Jordan_U> bj1: Don't forward port 80 to it
[01:07] <unop> bj1, i.e. if you use apache
[01:07] <burhan> bj1: adjust the Listen directive for Apache
[01:08] <meoblast001> unop: do i have to do that  random /etc/init.d part ?
[01:08] <meoblast001> unop: oh.. that makes a link doesnt it?
[01:08] <unop> meoblast001, well, actually .. what does  that file do?
[01:08] <unop> meoblast001, i shouldn't be recommending that without knowing what it does
[01:09] <meoblast001> unop: well.... its Anope IRC services
[01:09] <meoblast001> i need it to run as user braden
[01:10] <unop> meoblast001, well then, assuming it is set executable and executes alright .. call it from /etc/rc.local instead .. like this.   sudo -u braden /home/user/services/services
[01:11] <unop> meoblast001, i.e. add this line to /etc/rc.local just before the exit at the end
[01:12] <meoblast001> unop: what do i type in it?
[01:12] <unop> sudo -u braden /home/user/services/services

[01:15] <meoblast001> i dont know what i just did
[01:15] <ghindo> Does anybody know how to check one's IP address from the command line?
[01:15] <unop> ghindo, ifconfig
[01:15] <Armada> unop is right, using sudo shutdown -h now will immediatly shut down the PC
[01:15] <Odd-rationale> ghindo: ifconfig ?
[01:15] <Armada> without now it will just ask for a time

[01:16] <Dazed> can someone tell me the difference between the synaptic package manager and the one in add/remove programs?
[01:16] <ghindo> unop, Odd-rationale:  That just gives me a 192.168.0.2

[01:16] <ghindo> Dazed: The two programs do the same thing, it's just a different GUI
[01:17] <ghindo> Armada: From the command line?
[01:17] <meoblast001> Armada: i prefer www.myip.dk =P

[01:17] <Dazed> kk
[01:17] <Dazed> it seemed like the synaptic one had more packages overall

[01:19] <meoblast001> nothing was returned
[01:19] <unop> meoblast001, meaning it's not running then
[01:19] <meoblast001> ok
[01:19] <meoblast001> yay
[01:19] <Armada> Jordan_U: I need to make a new drive label but if I use gparted it crashes
[01:19] <Jordan_U> unop: or pgrep :)
[01:20] <meoblast001> unop: so how much power will this save us a year =P
[01:20] <Armada> Jordan_U: Yeah, my memmory stick is pretty much FUBAR
[01:20] <unop> Jordan_U, TIMTOWTDI
[01:20] <Flapperbol> Jordan_U: do i need to type that in a terminal or something?
[01:20] <unop> meoblast001, i wish i knew :)
[01:20] <meoblast001> i just cut ram usage in half
[01:20] <meoblast001> thanx unop
[01:21] <unop> meoblast001, well, it won't matter if you continue to use graphical applications afterwards :)
[01:21] <meoblast001> unop: so this is what i accomplished... reduced resource usage on my server... cleaned my server...... and got the hdd to stop clicking
[01:21] <meoblast001> unop: continue to use graphical applications?
[01:21] <unop> meoblast001, re. that clicking part .. you really ought to replace the harddrive
[01:22] <unop> meoblast001,  yea, like through startx or otherwise
[01:22] <Cdilling> anyone able to help me?
[01:22] <mrpockets> no
[01:22] <unop> !anyone | Cdilling
[01:23] <meoblast001> unop: well.. i cant afford =/... and i got it to stop by cleaning my system out... it had dust in it.. i accidently got liquid on the motherboard to O_O... but it still runs... for now atleast
[01:23] <Cdilling> lol sorry
[01:23] <Armada> the partition table of my memmory stick is broken, it reports the wrong size and gparted crashes on it.
[01:23] <Sorlag> hi everyone..a little question: how do i not display merged hdds on the dekstop?
[01:23] <Cdilling> K so I am getting an "error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06)
[01:23] <Tonehog> "merged?"
[01:23] <unop> meoblast001, well, your call .. but if your HDD is clicking, it's a sign .. it's crying for you to give it a decent burial
[01:24] <Jordan_U> Flapperbol: Mplayer is a terminal based player, the reason I suggest it is 1: I like it and 2: It's easy to force it to try to use xv for video output ( which is usually going to give the smoothest picture ) and also because if other players aren't using xv because your drivers aren't supporting it mplayer will hopefully give a useful error message, so try "mplayer -vo xv /path/to/video" ( There are also GUI front ends to mplay
[01:24] <unop> Cdilling, using sudo?
[01:24] <meoblast001> unop: well... as long as i have my stuff backed up
[01:24] <meoblast001> unop: and how is my server running graphical applications is i have no X runnign?
[01:24] <Tonehog> console SDL?
[01:25] <unop> meoblast001, xvfb .. but i guess you aren't using that
[01:25] <Armada> can someone help me?
[01:25] <unop> Cdilling, no PMs without asking .. please keep conversations in here, thanks
[01:25] <meoblast001> unop: idk am i?
[01:25] <Armada> the partition table of my memmory stick is broken, it reports the wrong size and gparted crashes on it.
[01:25] <Cdilling> unop: sorry about that
[01:25] <unop> meoblast001, well, if you don't know what it is, i'm sure you aren't using it :)
[01:26] <unop> Cdilling, no worries .. just not good netiquette PMing someone without their permission :)
[01:26] <Cdilling> unop: still new to ubuntu and irc/xchat
[01:27] <unop> Cdilling, ok, so, you using sudo there?
[01:27] <Flapperbol> Jordan_U: Tried it with the command you suggested, there are fewer framedrops, but after 20 secs the audio isn't synced anymore...
[01:28] <Jordan_U> Armada: Try using fdisk, a good guide is in the gentoo handbook ( ignore the parts about how big swap /home etc need to be since you will probably just make one large partition )
[01:28] <Jordan_U> http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?chap=4&part=1#doc_chap3
[01:28] <Cdilling> unop: yeah I used sudo iwconfig wlan0 mode monitor
[01:28] <meoblast001> unop: pretend i didnt say this in this channel.... but click this link... this is the only offtopic thing im saying http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VSCNpzD37l4
[01:28] <meoblast001> ok no more offtopic
[01:28] <pagodaman> if anyone can help me with my grub error 22, please pim me
[01:28] <unop> Cdilling, i'm guessing the driver you are using for that card does not support that action
[01:28] <Tonehog> can anyone help me with some basic info on amarok?
[01:28] <unop> Cdilling, what driver are you using anyway? do you know?
[01:29] <Cdilling> unop: i have no idea, how would i find that out?
[01:29] <Armada> Jordan_U: What do you want me to do with fdisk? It reports no partition on that drive (/dev/sdc)
[01:29] <Jordan_U> Armada: Create the partition(s) you want to be on the disk
[01:30] <pagodaman> grub error 22, please help, no internal hard drive, hp ze4800
[01:30] <Armada> Jordan_U: With fdisk?
[01:30] <Tonehog> Trying to "Ban" a song when using personal last.fm channel doesn't skip to next track. what's the deal with that? Do I not completely understand how last.fm works? I admit, I don't know much about the way last.fm works.
[01:30] <Jordan_U> Armada: Yes
[01:31] <PabloMDiez> Hello everybody! =)
[01:31] <Armada> Jordan_U: How? fdisk is only used to report info about a drive AFAIK
[01:31] <neeto> has anyone had success mounting their jailbroken iphone on hardy via SSH?
[01:32] <Armada> Jordan_U: nvm, I found it
[01:32] <PabloMDiez> Can someone help me with internet sharing and other problem on hardy?? Please! =)
[01:32] <Jordan_U> Armada: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?chap=4&part=1#doc_chap3
[01:32] <pagodaman> anyone know where to get grub 2?
[01:33] <armrp> Hey, I cant use the internet after a few minutes of using the Transmission torrent client. Can anyone help me?
[01:33] <Cdilling> unop: any ideas?
[01:33] <pagodaman> well, sure pagodaman. just go to gnu.org/software/grub/grub-2.html
[01:33] <pagodaman> well, thanks!
[01:34] <PabloMDiez> armrp: maybe Transmission is using all your bandwidht, try closing it and refreshing your IP address
[01:34] <Jordan_U> pagodaman: Grub2 is available in the repos ( though you may or may not still want to get the newest version from gnu.org )
[01:34] <Sorlag> hi all.. where do i configure whats displayed on the desktop? (Trash bin, HDDs etc.)
[01:34] <armrp> Well, Transmission wont download ether, and after I close it my net still doesn't work. How do I refresh my IP?
[01:35] <pagodaman> thanks, Jordan_U
[01:35] <Reformer81> I've downloaded a couple of icon packs from gnome-look.org, but cannot figure out how to install them...
[01:35] <PabloMDiez> @armrp: which type of internet do you have?
[01:35] <Jordan_U> pagodaman: np
[01:35] <armrp> DSL 512kbps
[01:36] <Jordan_U> Reformer81: Drag the tar.gz file into System -> Preferences -> Appearance
[01:36] <PabloMDiez> interface? eth, nas.. ?
[01:36] <frances> how do I turn on the window shading in Compiz?
[01:36] <Reformer81> Jordan_U: That just says it is not a valid theme.
[01:36] <sotec_prod> I need some help with getting the sound drivers for an IBM thinkpad 600e installed. Anyone know if it's possible?
[01:37] <Cdilling> can anyone help me with an SET MODE error with my wireless card
[01:37] <Reformer81> frances: What do you mean by window shading?
[01:37] <Jordan_U> Reformer81: Make sure you don't decompress it first
[01:37] <pagodaman> Jordan_U: what repos? I can't find the download for it. And if you could, could you please tell me where to find a how-to guide on setting it up
[01:37] <Reformer81> Jordan_U: I dragged the .gz file... didn't extract it first.
[01:37] <frances> where you can use the scroll wheel over the window title and the whole window rolls up or down
[01:38] <Reformer81> frances: Oh... shading.  That isn't a Compiz option (unfortunately).  It's a feature of the Emerald Theme system.
[01:39] <Jordan_U> pagodaman: http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/grub-pc ( sudo apt-get install grub2 should install it )
[01:39] <pagodaman> thanks.
[01:39] <pagodaman> ... Jordan_U: thanks.
[01:40] <frances> do you know of any Compiz plugins that would allow it?
[01:40] <Jordan_U> pagodaman: np
[01:40] <Reformer81> frances: Nope.  I've been waiting as well.
[01:40] <Reformer81> Jordan_U: Did you see that I did drag the .tar.gz file directly into the Appearance dialog and it still gives the "not a valid theme" error.
[01:40] <frances> Damn. Okay well thank you!
[01:41] <Jordan_U> Reformer81: Yes, I am not sure why it's not working, where did you get the theme from?
[01:41] <Reformer81> Jordan_U: gnome-look.org
[01:41] <Reformer81> It isn't a theme... it's an icon pack.
[01:43] <Armada> Jordan_U: It's no use, it's as if my actions have no effect
[01:43] <unop> Cdilling, what wireless card is this?
[01:43] <Jordan_U> Armada: Did you type "w" to write your changes to disk?
[01:44] <unop> Cdilling,  lspci | grep -i net
[01:44] <Armada> Jordan_U: Yes
[01:45] <Armada> Jordan_U: Success! Reformatting is now possible and I formated it to FAT, but now it says it can't read the superblock
[01:45] <PabloMDiez> ﻿Can someone help me with internet sharing and other problem on hardy?? Please! =)
[01:45] <prince_jammys> unop: sorted it out. success
[01:45] <unop> prince_jammys, nice, what did you end up doing?
[01:46] <Jordan_U> Armada: Did you actually create a file system ( fdisk just creates partitions, you have to use mkfs or gparted or some other utility to create the actual file system )
[01:46] <prince_jammys> unop: disabled localedef while still running adept_updater (by unsetting the executable bit), and then aptitude full-upgrade after rebooting
[01:47] <armrp> How can I run windows games in ubuntu?
[01:47] <Reformer81> I've downloaded a couple of icon packs from gnome-look.org, but cannot figure out how to install them...
[01:47] <jane_> My mom's trying to use a website with Java. I installed a Java plugin, but it's still saying Java's not enabled. FireFox has it enabled, so what could be the problem?
[01:47] <Reformer81> armrp: Look into Wine or Cedega
[01:47] <Armada> Jordan_U: I used mkfs -t vfat
[01:47] <unop> prince_jammys, nice, will remember that. thanks :)
[01:47] <prince_jammys> unop: everything seems to be in order. i listed the packages that couldn't be configured, and they were all reconfigured on reboot
[01:48] <armrp> Reformer81: I already have Wine installed if i install Cedega also will they mess nething up?
[01:48] <infinitycircuit> jane_, which java plugin did you install? sun-java6-plugin is most reliable forme
[01:48] <prince_jammys> unop: just changed vga to 792 in my menu.lst, and now my ttys look awesome! joy
[01:48] <Reformer81> armrp: Cedega is a specialized version of Wine.. but it is not free.
[01:48] <jane_> infinitycircuit, ah, darn. I picked the one that was selected by default.
[01:48] <unop> prince_jammys, :)
[01:48] <prince_jammys> now we're talking
[01:49] <Jordan_U> Armada: Can pastebin the exact error you are getting?
[01:49] <Reformer81> armrp: Unfortunately, using Wine to play Windows games is a pretty complicated task... I suggest you start searching Google for how to play your specific game using Wine.
[01:49] <PabloMDiez> Last try: ﻿﻿Can someone help me with internet sharing and other problem on hardy?? Please! =)
[01:49] <armrp> OK, thanks
[01:50] <xyblor> What is the location of the script that gdm runs when you select "run Xclient script" as your login session?
[01:50] <Armada> Jordan_U: There's nothing special, it just says it can't read the superblock
[01:50] <Armada> Jordan_U: But I give up, the mem stick is just broken now
[01:51] <AYNUL-SEKS> hello all
[01:51] <jane_> infinitycircuit, Is it really possible the default Java plugin would give the result that the webpage thinks java isn't enabled?
[01:51] <CdK1> ji
[01:51] <CdK1> alguno tiene laptop?
[01:51] <Sorlag> hi all.. where do i configure whats displayed on the desktop? (Trash bin, HDDs etc.)
[01:52] <Armada> Jordan_U: I can use the windows format utility to get a partition working.
[01:52] <infinitycircuit> jane_, anything is possible
[01:52] <PabloMDiez> How can I configure internet sharing from NAS0 to USB0?
[01:52] <Armada> Jordan_U: Their unclean method of formating manages to get a partition on there
[01:52] <Mr_Awesome> when i start seq24, are connection points expected to appear the "connections" window of the JACK control? for me, none appear.
[01:53] <dblick> Holy shit.  Dapper... feisty... gutsy... hardy... intrepid... it's the alphabet!  (A bit slow.)
[01:53] <dblick> Also no e?
[01:53] <Armada> Jordan_U: I can use the windows format utility to get a partition working.
[01:53] <Armada> Jordan_U: Their unclean method of formating manages to get a partition on there
[01:53] <Dr_willis> dblick,  edgy eft
[01:53] <xyblor> dblick: edgy eft
[01:53] <Dr_willis> Just wait for Zublant Zebra!
[01:53] <prince_jammys> I'd like to encrypt one of my partitions. Any recommendations of tools to use?
[01:54] <dblick> Ah, right on.
[01:54] <cosmodad> prince_jammys: cryptsetup/luks is usually a good choice. Some people use truecrypt too.
[01:55] <gravyflex> #gnome
[01:55] <father_> hi can somone help me
[01:55] <cosmodad> !ask | father
[01:55] <cosmodad> !ask | father_
[01:55] <prince_jammys> "
[01:55] <prince_jammys> cosmodad: thanks
[01:56] <father_> i tried finding it on line
[01:56] <cosmodad> father_: what is "it"?
[01:56] <father_> but no luck so im asking here
[01:56] <cosmodad> father_: you should get straight to the point.
[01:56] <father_> please no flaming
[01:56] <father_> ok
[01:56] <TheNavyBear> has anyone used Mixxx 1.6.0 in Linux? I am thinking of switching, but Mixxx is my livelyhood, I need to know how it works in Linux
[01:57] <Joeb454> father_, just ask
[01:57] <Joeb454> :)
[01:57] <cosmodad> father_: that was no flaming. I'm giving you advice on how you get help the quickest way.
[01:57] <father_> how do you setup an online proxy network
[01:57] <father_> ?
[01:57] <father_> in ubuntu
[01:57] <Dr_willis> 'online proxy network' hmmm
[01:58] <jmichelsen> helly
[01:58] <Dr_willis> You mean you mean to make your own proxy server and have the other box's use it?
[01:58] <cosmodad> father_: do you just want to set a HTTP proxy, i.e. in your web browser?
[01:58] <jmichelsen> anyone got a second to work with some smb problems?
[01:58] <father_> my boss said i need to have an online proxy server
[01:59] <father_> thats all i know
[01:59] <Dr_willis> sounds to  me like hes being vague
[01:59] <PabloMDiez> ok, I'm leaving..
[01:59] <Dr_willis> theres 'have' as in having to set up the clients to use an existing one.. or 'have' as in having to run/install one for the clients to use.
[01:59] <Reformer81> I've downloaded a couple of icon packs from gnome-look.org, but cannot figure out how to install them...
[01:59] <father_> yeah i can be like that from time to time
[01:59] <chill> can anyone give me some information in regards to doing some wine editing, i was looking at a bug and their comments were to edit some dll's i was unable to find them, so i installed the wine dev kit, could not find them even after that - is there a faq or guide for getting started?
[02:00] <judgen> Anyone know xhosa?
[02:01] <jmichelsen> can smbclient mount NTFS volumes anyone?
[02:01] <Dr_willis> jmichelsen,  you can 'share' ntfs filesystems with samba...  if thats what you are asking.
[02:01] <father_> are there any free proxy server sites out there
[02:01] <judgen> father_: loads
[02:01] <father_> that might help
[02:01] <jmichelsen> Dr_willis: you use smbclient on the other nix box to connect too tho right?
[02:02] <gravyflex> irc.gnome.org
[02:02] <father_> be right back
[02:02] <father_> sorry
[02:02] <Tonehog> father_: is Tor a paid service? Are you simply looking for an HTTP proxy?
[02:02] <jmichelsen> Dr_willis: the bash command smbclient //etcetcetc right?
[02:02] <Dr_willis> jmichelsen,  you access the share as if it was any other share.. the ntfs part dosent really matter.   except you have to watch out for filenames/case or other ntfs limits
[02:02] <mmmiiikkkeee> does any one know if there is a way to run different kde apps using different themes. my wife wants kopete to have a pink background but i don't want other kde programs to have pink backgrounds?
[02:03] <SkinnYPup> Anyone here running hardy on a toshiba M200 tablet?
[02:03] <jmichelsen> Dr_willis: oh ok, I was getting NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME, and read someone say NTFS is the cause
[02:04] <Dr_willis> jmichelsen,  its possible  the ntfs filesystem needs to be mounted with  some specific options. ive never seen that issue.
[02:04] <Dr_willis> jmichelsen,  i share my 'windows drive' all the time.
[02:04] <Dr_willis> jmichelsen,  perhaps use the ntfs-3g filesystem, not ntfs to mount it
[02:05] <jmichelsen> Dr_willis: I just took the dive and installed ubuntu on my main system but the other drive in it is NTFS with backup data
[02:05] <jmichelsen> Dr_willis: then from another ubuntu system (server) I am trying to mount that ntfs backup, I did put define the share in smb.conf
[02:06] <dmsuperman> For some reason one of my windows has no borders...restarting compiz and even my computer won't fix it
[02:06] <dmsuperman> It appears to be in like fullscreen mode, and I can't resize it
[02:06] <Dazed> how do i get seamless mode in virtualbox to work?
[02:07] <Dazed> its greyed out
[02:07] <dmsuperman> Dazed, gotta install the application within the host, and it needs to be windows xp
[02:07] <Dazed> i did
[02:07] <TheDude> Please PM me if you can help: I'm having issues watching videos on thedailyshow web site
[02:07] <Dazed> i have it running
[02:07] <Dazed> oh wait
[02:07] <dmsuperman> Dazed, you have the virtual box tools application installed and running within windows xp vm?
[02:07] <Dazed> no
[02:07] <dmsuperman> do that
[02:08] <Dazed> i didnt know you meant the tools
[02:08] <Dazed> that makes sense :D
[02:08] <dmsuperman> :D
[02:08] <dmsuperman> :P
[02:08] <infinitycircuit> Dazed, if you want shared folders you need to use 1.6.0 or earlier of guest utils
[02:08] <father_> sorry im back
[02:09] <Jordan_U> judgen: What is your question about xhost?
[02:09] <jmichelsen> Dr_willis: any ideas? on a windows box it gives access denied to the same share
[02:10] <Dr_willis> jmichelsen,  set it up as a public share perhaps.. perhaps it needed to be mounted with a sprcific umask to allow all users to access it
[02:10] <Dr_willis> jmichelsen,  or just use ssh/winscp to access the data as needed. and work around samba.
[02:10] <greeez> I am having some trouble with python, and i think it has to do with proxy stuff.  Last night i installed tor/privoxy, but ended up uninstalling them.  However, whenever i try to do urllib2.urlopen  to any url it refuses my connection, and i have reason to belive that it has to do with the proxy stuff
[02:10] <deniz__> how do i add res 1680x1050? sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg doesnt work anymore all it does is fixes my keyboard setup wen its alredy setup well!
[02:11] <jmichelsen> Dr_willis: hmm I dont know much about the umask
[02:12] <jmichelsen> Dr_willis: the share is public and writeable but I have no umask, maybe that is the prob
[02:12] <orgthingy> greez : more details
[02:12] <orgthingy> greez : how did you "use" tor
[02:12] <greeez> i installed it and tried configuring it with tork
[02:12] <orgthingy> greez : did you use it as localhost   port:: 9050 for socks and 8118 for normal browsing
[02:12] <Dazed> seemless mode is mega glitchy and not seemless at all for me :\
[02:12] <greeez> yes.
[02:12] <orgthingy> greeez : u using ubuntu or kubuntu?
[02:12] <greeez> xubuntu
[02:12] <father_> yeah im just looking for a proxy
[02:12] <SkinnYPup> Anyone here using hardy on a tablet pc?
[02:12] <orgthingy> greeez: : not good idea
[02:13] <greeez> my computer cant take the heat :(
[02:13] <Dr_willis> jmichelsen,   yep. You need to be sure the share is writeable to all perhaps..
[02:13] <orgthingy> torK works with with Xfce and gnome
[02:13] <orgthingy> but
[02:13] <orgthingy> it was DESIGNED to work on kde
[02:13] <orgthingy> just use terminal for tor
[02:13] <jmichelsen> Dr_willis: and thats done with umasks
[02:13] <jmichelsen> Dr_willis: ?
[02:13] <orgthingy> very easy, actually
[02:13] <greeez> eitherway I uninstalled tork, privoxy, and tor
[02:13] <arthur> virtualbox question? is there a way to make the other os viewable area bigger? i hit host+f key it goes full screen but the window stays the same size...?
[02:13] <Dr_willis> jmichelsen,  ive also just mounted the windows directory to a dir in the users home dir. and logged in as that user. since he had full access to the windows partition.. the share did also.
[02:13] <whatwhat> greeez; i heard ubuntu and debian have issues with tork
[02:14] <whatwhat> was in the new linux pro magazine
[02:14] <orgthingy> greeez  : so, what do u actually want us to answer?
[02:14] <Dr_willis> jmichelsen,  the umask option, in the fstab - controlls the permissions for ntfs/vfat filesystems
[02:14] <greeez> What should i do to fix python?
[02:14] <orgthingy> whatwhat : i hate torK, its useless someho
[02:14] <orgthingy> u dont need gui for everything
[02:14] <orgthingy> seriously
[02:14] <orgthingy> emma_ : hello
[02:14] <TheDude> HELP PLEASE!

[02:15] <FrozenFire> Hey all, I'm running Kubuntu Hardy. I was trying to get the S-Video output working on my laptop, so I set up a secondary screen (Which clones the primary). Now when I attempt to start X Server, it shows some messed up screen output (Green vertical lines and such). How can I manually fix this? Is it a setting in xorg.conf?
[02:16] <Dr_willis> jmichelsen,  not that i am aware of. check the 'using samba' book in the repos for specifics I guess. its a well done book.
[02:16] <nDuff> TheDude, does other flash work?
[02:16] <orgthingy> TheDude : install Micromedia Flash from add/remove (search "Flash"
[02:16] <nDuff> TheDude, are you 32- or 64-bit?
[02:16] <TheDude> I did
[02:16] <TheDude> 64 bit OS

[02:16] <FloodBot1> TheDude: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:16] <Dazed> is there a package with a linux desktop recorder.. like camtasia?
[02:16] <jmichelsen> Dr_willis: using samba, I will do that, just trying to get networking all working, mainly for my wife
[02:16] <orgthingy> TheDude : can u send us screenshot while ur watching flash video?
[02:16] <orgthingy> and upload it to imageshack.us or any other site?
[02:17] <aslan> hello, I have tne intel 4965 wireless card in my laptop.. and I can't get 802.11n to work
[02:17] <orgthingy> BRB

[02:17] <SkinnYPup> arthur: There is also a channel for virtual box #vbox
[02:17] <arthur> ok i guess i will have to shut down vbox to do that...?
[02:17] <TheDude> orgthingy: OK, give me a few seconds please, I'll post them up asap
[02:17] <aslan> I installed the kernel package from the proposed repo
[02:17] <aslan> but still no luck... anyone got this working?
[02:17] <arthur> i found that one...;)
[02:17] <Dazed> found one... xvidcap
[02:17] <dmsuperman> For some reason one of my windows has no borders...restarting compiz and even my computer won't fix it
[02:17] <dmsuperman> It appears to be in like fullscreen mode, and I can't resize it
[02:18] <jmichelsen> Dr_willis: thanks for  the help
[02:18] <Dr_willis> jmichelsen,  you could google for 'shareing ntfs filesystem with samba' and see if any one else has issues.
[02:18] <orgthingy> BACK
[02:19] <jmichelsen> Dr_willis: lol there are so many threads with samba issues, I guess because it is so versitile but yea I keep reading as many as I find
[02:19] <jmichelsen> Dr_willis:  I will check that book also
[02:19] <jmichelsen> Dr_willis: thanks for the help
[02:19] <Syco54645> hello i am having some problems with sharing a linux drive to a windows machine on my network.  it works fine in my virtual machine that is on here, but when I try to use any other windows computer on my network, it does not work.  does anyone have any ideas?
[02:19] <Dr_willis> jmichelsen,  this is when the + and 'and' options in google come in handy.   I would make sure the ntfs filesystem is acessable by all users on the system locally first.. then trysharing it.. enable verbose logging in samba to watch for any errors
[02:19] <Syco54645> i am trying to use samba btw
[02:19] <jmichelsen> Dr_willis: Syco54645 lol we were just discussing this
[02:20] <jmichelsen> Dr_willis: I havent checked the log yet so yea good way to see
[02:20] <jmichelsen> D	thanks
[02:20] <jmichelsen> Dr_willis: thanks
[02:20] <SkinnYPup> Arthur: I use vmwareserver , but seem to recall vbox not giving me any problems once the guest os had its own resolution turned up high enough to "fill" the screen out.
[02:20] <Syco54645> jmichelsen, i am trying to get windows xp to see my linux share, which is backwards from what i can find on google and what have you
[02:21] <jmichelsen> Syco54645: this is what I was just doing as well
[02:21] <jmichelsen> Syco54645: did you define the share in your smb.conf
[02:21] <orgthingy> TheDude : still uploading?
[02:22] <Syco54645> jmichelsen, yes i have, i can connect to it with my virtual machine that has xp installed on it (it is on the same machine as the share).  as soon as i try to access it from my laptop it does not work.  it gives no error, just keeps prompting for user and pass over and over again
[02:23] <SkinnYPup> Any tablet pc + ubuntu users here ?
[02:23] <jmichelsen> Syco54645: yea same thing I had earlier
[02:23] <jmichelsen> Syco54645: how did you define the share, guest ok = yes?
[02:23] <Syco54645> jmichelsen, i have tried editing my registry on my laptop but it didnt work
[02:23] <Syco54645> jmichelsen, let me check
[02:23] <Dazed> how can i stop a running process that i cant see as a window?
[02:24] <SkinnYPup> I don't miss regedit ;o)
[02:24] <TheDude> orghtingy YAH
[02:24] <jmichelsen> Syco54645: no need to edit the win machine reg really, it is the samba share i beleive that causes that
[02:24] <linfenix> some boddy know how to install xmms?
[02:24] <Syco54645> jmichelsen, guest ok = no
[02:24] <Dr_willis> jmichelsen,  you still here..  I just set up the laptop to share my windows filesystem.. its working fine. Want my Samba smb.conf share def?
[02:25] <TheDude> orghtingy, I'm still working on it... I had to reset my password in photobucket
[02:25] <Brucee> i am trying to installed photoshop cs2 in ubuntu hardy, i get it to run, but its telling me that 'memory could not be allocated for the activation process, plese close other programs and restart it, i close all my programs , change to metacity, and closed compiz-fusion, but still telling me the same thing
[02:25] <SkinnYPup> sudo apt-get install xmms ?
[02:25] <jmichelsen> Dr_willis: sure
[02:25] <jmichelsen> Syco54645: change to yes and see if you can access the share
[02:25] <Brucee> how do i know how much memory i have left on ubuntu hardy?
[02:25] <TheDude> orgthingy, and I have never uploaded pictures from ubuntu before (I've only done it in windows, who knows what headaches will come upon me now)

[02:41] <Dr_willis> slammed87d21,  you think?  well its not in the repos.. so you woyuld have to compile it from source.. or find someone that has allready made deb packages for it.
[02:41] <orgthingy> TheDude : install SWfdec
[02:41] <slammed87d21> acvtually, scratch that. i just installed it. how do i get my laptop to recognize my internal bluetooth?
[02:41] <oakbox> SkinnYPup: It does not boot at all, only from live CD, cant boot into windows or linux

[02:45] <owen1> deb http://www.kiberpipa.org/~minmax/cinelerra/builds/pentium4/ ./   but i get: bash: deb: command not found.  any clue?
[02:45] <dmsuperman> I'm running compiz, and when I try to open Opera this error occurs and compiz crashes: http://pastebin.com/d4ba6d3ec
[02:45] <TheDude> orgthingy: I hope I didn't commit an abomination just by mentioning the W word here! LOL
[02:46] <gilda> omg noooo not the w word !!
[02:46] <n1zjd_> a program im running needs to open a USB port....how do I do that?  /dev/??
[02:46] <dmsuperman> Windows?
[02:46] <gilda> =p
[02:46] <crdlb> owen1: because that's not a command
[02:46] <slammed87d21> is there a way to check if my comp recogizes my internal bluetooth? and how do i fix it if it doesnt?
[02:46] <Dr_willis> n1zjd_,  what program is this?
[02:46] <n1zjd_> grig
[02:46] <some_person> what's the name of the Live CD account?
[02:46] <crdlb> !sources.list | owen1
[02:46] <n1zjd_> grig -m 313 -r /dev/ttys1
[02:47] <crdlb> some_person: 'ubuntu' ?
[02:47] <n1zjd_> I need to do that but choose the right USB port
[02:47] <owen1> crdlb: got it
[02:47] <Dazed> my xp install in virtual box cant see a virtual network card.. help?
[02:47] <Be1> can anyone here help me with a virtual box problem?
[02:47] <some_person> crdlb: yes
[02:47] <lostogre> Be1: whats the prob?
[02:47] <Be1> i am trying to start a virtual box and i am getting this error "VirtualBox kernel driver not installed. The vboxdrv kernel module was either not loaded or /dev/vboxdrv was not created for some reason. Please install the virtualbox-ose-modules package for your kernel, e.g. virtualbox-ose-modules-generic.."
[02:48] <orgthingy> TheDude: NO windows
[02:48] <Be1> any ideas?
[02:48] <orgthingy> TheDude : windows kill penguins
[02:48] <dmsuperman> Windows?
[02:48] <orgthingy> TheDude : windows took our money
[02:48] <dmsuperman> I'm running compiz, and when I try to open Opera this error occurs and compiz crashes: http://pastebin.com/d4ba6d3ec
[02:48] <SkinnYPup> sudo apt-get install virtual-ose-modules-generic
[02:48] <orgthingy> they made crises in Africa !
[02:48] <lostogre> Be1: try sudo modprobe vboxcrv
[02:48]  * orgthingy blames everything on M$ and Windows
[02:48] <lostogre> vboxdrv
[02:48] <orgthingy> i even blamed M$ for having such a hot weather
[02:48] <Dr_willis> n1zjd_,  a usb port is not a serial port.. unless you got some usb-> serial adaptor. and then in theory it shoudl appear as a /dev/ttys# i belive.
[02:48] <Hamled> My machine froze and had to be hard reset (I suspect the problem might be from the GPU overheating) what logs should I check to find out what could possibly have been the issue?
[02:49] <Dr_willis> n1zjd_,  you could look in /dev/ and see what ttys* ports there are. i guess
[02:49] <TheDude> orgthingy: I love penguins!
[02:49] <some_person> how do I lock the computer while using the Live CD?
[02:49] <Be1> right, then i get these two errors
[02:49] <Be1> "﻿E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily unavailable)
[02:49] <Be1> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?"
[02:49] <Dr_willis> Be1,  only 1 package manager [program, at a time can be running.
[02:50] <orgthingy> TheDude : yes! save them by boycotting m$
[02:50] <lostogre> Be1: make sure that you are not running synaptic
[02:50] <TheDude> orgthingy: what's the beta flash package name?
[02:50] <orgthingy> TheDude : it isnt in add/remove or apt
[02:50] <orgthingy> TheDude : it's in adobe's site
[02:50] <n1zjd_> TONS of tty's
[02:51] <n1zjd_> heh
[02:51] <Be1> okay, new error
[02:51] <Be1> E: Couldn't find package virtual-ose-modules-generic
[02:51] <TheDude> orgthingy: I can't install anything form adobe's site since my Ubuntu is x64 :(, I had to use nspluginwrapper)
[02:51] <joejoecircusboy> Hew: pidstat '-d' will show you what you need, but only new versions of sysstat have support for that option (i.e. the one shipped with Hardy does, the one with gutsy does not) --- not sure about intrepid
[02:51] <dmsuperman> I'm running compiz, and when I try to open Opera this error occurs and compiz crashes: http://pastebin.com/d4ba6d3ec
[02:51] <lostogre> Be1: try sudo apt-get install virtual-ose-modules-generic
[02:51] <orgthingy> TheDude : aha! it's your COMPUTER's problem not ubuntu
[02:52] <TheDude> orgthingy: and I've been hearing that compiz has some problems, but I love compiz more than I hate windows! so I don't want to uninstall it
[02:52] <Be1> E: Couldn't find package virtual-ose-modules-generic
[02:52] <orgthingy> TheDude : yes u can, `64 is supported by adobe, isnt it?
[02:52] <orgthingy> Bel : just use add/remove
[02:52] <crdlb> dmsuperman: are you still using gutsy with compiz installed from source?
[02:52] <orgthingy> type "virtual"
[02:52] <Hew> joejoecircusboy: If it's in Hardy, it's in Intrepid :-). Thanks for the help.
[02:52] <orgthingy> and you find it
[02:52] <lostogre> Be1: try searching for it in synaptic
[02:52] <joejoecircusboy> Hew: np
[02:52] <TheDude> orgthingy: not that I know of, I went on their site and they didn't have a 64 bit pkg
[02:52] <dmsuperman> crdlb, I am, it's amazing you remember that :P
[02:52] <TheDude> orgthingy: and I tried their 86 pkg, but no luck, that didn't work for me
[02:53] <orgthingy> TheDude : hmm, k
[02:53] <TheDude> orgthingy: I couldn't install it, that's all
[02:53] <Be1> in synaptic i get this error
[02:53] <Be1> "virtualbox-ose-modules-generic:
[02:53] <Be1>  Depends: virtualbox-ose-modules-2.6.24-20-generic but it is not going to be installed"
[02:53] <crdlb> dmsuperman: :) please join #compiz-fusion since you're running a custom install of compiz
[02:53] <orgthingy> TheDude : http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=6b3af6c9
[02:53] <dmsuperman> alright
[02:53] <Be1> it says that some of the packages have unresolved dependencies
[02:54] <lostogre> Be1: what are the dependencies?
[02:54] <Be1> virtualbox-ose-modules-2.6.24-20-generic
[02:54] <Be1> but i couldn't find that
[02:54] <Hornet_> after every apt-get command, this appears in the terminal: "Processing triggers for libc6 ..." "ldconfig deferred processing now taking place".  It seems to be jammed on it, anyone have any ideas how to stop it doing that? :\
[02:54] <TheDude> orgthingy: so and I have a 64 bit Firefox browser... BAAAH!
[02:54] <lostogre> Be1: are you running anything that is outside the main ubuntu repositories?
[02:55] <orgthingy> TheDude : you poor thing
[02:55] <alpinestr> hey im trying to load a wine program but it keeps on saying java software not loaded, but interface is loaded and after that it exits
[02:55] <Be1> like nay program?
[02:55] <Laozi> Is there a way in ubuntu to trigger a program to run when my laptop switches to battery power?
[02:55] <Be1> like any programs?
[02:55] <lostogre> Be1: yeah
[02:55] <orgthingy> TheDude : if you REALLY want this daily show, get ie4linux and download flash with it (Internet explorer for linux)
[02:55] <infinitycircuit> Hornet_, those are dpkg triggers. you can edit them IF ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY in /var/lib/dpkg/triggers
[02:55] <orgthingy> TheDude : but dont use Windows
[02:55] <Be1> all i am running is pidgin, totem, virtual box, and synaptic
[02:56] <gigatropolis> using prevu: the help says "prevu name_of_source_package"  what is the source package. I downloaded 'subversion_1.5.1dfsg1.orig.tar.gz' but it says " Unable to find a source package for subversion_1.5.1dfsg1.orig.tar.gz"
[02:56] <Tera|Byte> umm, i just installed ubuntu using wubi, but when i start it up, it just goes into a shell. How do i login and start GNOME?
[02:56] <orgthingy> pidgin sucks
[02:56] <orgthingy> get emesene
[02:56] <Be1> why does it suck?
[02:56] <Hornet_> infinitycircuit: roger, cheers.  I presume it's somehow jammed, it's done it at least 20 times now over a couple of days, so should be safe?
[02:56] <orgthingy> Bel : try emesene first
[02:56] <orgthingy> Bel : Less fonts
[02:56] <Be1> meh
[02:56] <orgthingy> Bel : and it doesnt look like msn :P
[02:56] <TheDude> orgthingy: sometimes I have no choice, at work we use Windows! They got us cornered, we're like the 300 there: we're ready to fight for our software FREEdom till the last software spartan dies!
[02:56] <lostogre> Be1: no, what I mean is are you using any repositories other than the main ubuntu repositories?
[02:56] <armrp> What is some good video editing software for Linux?
[02:56] <Tera|Byte> umm, i just installed ubuntu using wubi, but when i start it up, it just goes into a shell. How do i login and start GNOME?
[02:56] <Be1> i dont know
[02:56] <rand0m> what are some good shooters that work in ubuntu (with not really up to date pc spcs.. p4 1.6gz, 512mb ram,
[02:57] <infinitycircuit> Hornet_, so does apt just crash when it runs those triggers?
[02:57] <Hornet_> rand0m: openarea :)
[02:57] <infinitycircuit> rand0m, try openarena
[02:57] <lostogre> armrp: cinelerra, but it crashes, avidemux
[02:57] <Laozi> Is there a way in ubuntu to trigger a program to run when my laptop switches to battery power?
[02:57] <TheDude> orgthingy: but thanks anyway, it was a good try, I'll keep on trying to figure it out, for some reason I think that I had it working at one point
[02:57] <Tera|Byte> can anyone help me?
[02:57] <alpinestr> anyone ?
[02:57] <Be1> i just opened all of the repositories option in synaptic and checked all of the boxes
[02:57] <gilda> rand0m: i think nexiuz is pretty popular to
[02:57] <Hornet_> infinitycircuit: not as far as I can tell, it just seems to finish and places me back at bash
[02:57] <lostogre> Be1: if you don't know then you probably aren't.
[02:58] <orgthingy> TheDude :  google for ie4linux tutorial
[02:58] <infinitycircuit> Laozi, put a script in /etc/pm/power.d
[02:58] <rand0m> those look cool thanks.. how about any modern war based ones ? or even historical war
[02:58] <orgthingy> TheDude : im pretty sure itll work in Internet Explorer (Linux)
[02:58] <infinitycircuit> Hornet_, oh haha. that's not a bug. it's expected behavior
[02:58] <Laozi> infinitycircuit, thanks
[02:58] <Hornet_> infinitycircuit: once, surely, not 20+ times?
[02:58] <Tera|Byte> umm, i just installed ubuntu using wubi, but when i start it up, it just goes into a shell. How do i login and start GNOME?
[02:58] <gilda> TheDude: your trying to get flash in 64 bit yes ?
[02:58] <lostogre> Be1: do a refresh and try again.
[02:58] <infinitycircuit> Hornet_, trust me. let it run. if you want more information read this monster
[02:59] <infinitycircuit> Hornet_, http://www.nabble.com/Dpkg-triggers-and-user-experience,-aka-"How-do-I-disable-those-triggers"-side-effect.-td18152223.html
[02:59] <TheDude> orgthingy: ok, I'll give it a shot :)
[02:59] <TheDude> gilda: yes :)
[02:59] <slammed87d21> are there any sites to walk me through getting my bluetooth to work?
[02:59] <gilda> TheDude: have u tried running opera ? - is how i got flash happy
[02:59] <oakbox> I have a problem with grub, I get to stage 1.5 and then it says Error 5.  How can i fix it?
[02:59]  * gilda runs 64 bit
[03:00] <TheDude> gilda: I was kinda hoping that I can do it without switching the browser, but you know, sometimes the computer beats me
[03:00] <alpinestr> hey im trying to load a wine program but it keeps on saying java software not loaded, but interface is loaded and after that it exits
[03:00] <slammed87d21> help?
[03:00] <mht>   /server irc.fpt-chat.cm 6667
[03:00] <mht>   /server irc.fpt-chat.cm 6667
[03:00] <mht> oc
[03:00] <FloodBot1> mht: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:00] <TheDude> gilda: so I'll try some other browsers (opera, ieforlinux, etc)
[03:01] <gilda> TheDude: ya i know that feeling - i have in the proprietary flash - and then have opera mapped to the libmodule
[03:01] <gilda> the flashplugin-nonfree
[03:01] <Tonehog> armrp: I haven't found one that matches themes with your desktop environment, but Gimmie a sec and I'll give you a list
[03:01] <TheDude> gilda: yah, we'll get it figured out :)
[03:02] <Be1> okay, i just tried to reload my packages and i got this error:
[03:02] <FrozenFire> Anyone know how I could get the S-Video output working (to TV) on Kubuntu 8.04 on an ATI Radeon 7500 onboard (Inspiron 5100 laptop)? I tried atitvout, but only get VBE call failed errors. There's some mentions of an "ATI-opensource-driver" available, but I'd like to explore other options before compiling an obscure driver into my system.
[03:02] <TheDude> gilda: thanks all! thanks orgthingy!! :)
[03:02] <Be1> The repository may no longer be available or could not be contacted because of network problems. If available an older version of the failed index will be used. Otherwise the repository will be ignored. Check your network connection and ensure the repository address in the preferences is correct.
[03:02] <gilda> TheDude: gl
[03:02] <orgthingy> TheDude : problem solved?
[03:02] <lostogre> Be1: eesh. dunno. how old is your install?
[03:02] <infinitycircuit> FrozenFire, that card is supported by radeon xorg driver. the newer ati stuff (fglrx/radeonhd) don't support older cards.
[03:03] <TheDude> orgthingy: I haven't tried another browser yet, but I've been on this for too long, spent about 4 hours trying to figure it out... once I try another browser I'll see what's up
[03:03] <Be1> two days
[03:03] <TheDude> orgthingy: but I'll get some dinner now :), thanks a lot for your time tho :)!!!
[03:03] <orgthingy> TheDUde : trust me, ie4linux WILL work
[03:03] <lostogre> Be1: oi.
[03:03] <orgthingy> TheDude : windows uses IE.. IE is available on linux
[03:03] <Be1> should i reinstall you think?
[03:03] <FrozenFire> infinitycircuit: Is that a separate package, or should it come with the official release?
[03:03] <orgthingy> so, why switch whole OS while u can switch browser, TheDude
[03:03] <orgthingy> :)
[03:03] <lostogre> Be1: I dunno. were there any install issues?
[03:03] <Be1> i have used this cd for a sucessfull unstall
[03:03] <Hornet_> infinitycircuit: skimmed it, but doesn't help too much
[03:04] <darkfire> I want to watch the Olympics on Nbcolympics.com....
[03:04] <Be1> ﻿i have used this cd for a successful install
[03:04] <infinitycircuit> FrozenFire, it will come with the official release and comes by default
[03:04] <TheDude> orgthingy: I told you, if you were a salesman you'd be making a lot of money! LOL, SOLD! LOL :)
[03:04] <darkfire> But it requirs Silverlight
[03:04] <Hornet_> I know what they are, but surely one should only be run once?
[03:04] <darkfire> What should i do
[03:04] <orgthingy> :P
[03:04] <crdlb> FrozenFire: the open source radeon driver (what you're using) got r200 TV-out support a while back, but the 7500 is an r100
[03:04] <TheDude> orgthingy: all right, nite for now :)
[03:04] <lostogre> Be1: install issues?
[03:04] <FrozenFire> infinitycircuit: In that case, why am I getting nothing but garbled display on the laptop monitor?
[03:04] <Be1> not that i know of...
[03:04] <orgthingy> :)
[03:04] <jperezv> hola
[03:04] <FrozenFire> Nothing's being output to the TV whatsoever.
[03:05] <FrozenFire> On boot, the TV flickers, so I know there's a connection
[03:05] <lostogre> Be1: Im at a loss....
[03:05] <crdlb> FrozenFire: the laptop's LCD doesn't work either?
[03:05] <jperezv> quit
[03:05] <FreshUbuntuNoob> Does anyone know why an ethernet interface might come up even though the "auto" command in interfaces is actually commented?
[03:05] <FrozenFire> crdlb: It doesn't when I try setting up a secondary monitor. With no modifications to X, it works fine.
[03:05] <Cpudan80> darkfire: not much you can do - use a VM
[03:05] <Cpudan80> darkfire: might work with IE in wine
[03:06] <ypcx> ho
[03:06] <oakbox> How can i fix "Error 5" on grub?
[03:06] <lostogre> Be1: have you tried the virtualbox boards?
[03:06] <crdlb> FrozenFire: ah, if TV out works, it would work without any xorg.conf changes (via XRandR)
[03:06] <Be1> as in message boards?
[03:07] <FrozenFire> crdlb: I know the TV out works, because it works under XP. It's under Ubuntu that it doesn't.
[03:07] <ypcx> just replaced osx with ubuntu on macbook pro
[03:07] <Be1> do you think i need to reinstall?
[03:07] <crdlb> FrozenFire: by 'works' I mean works with that driver. I have no doubt that the hardware itself is fine
[03:07] <lostogre> Be1: there is always a solution. have you tried the virtualbox boards?
[03:08] <sauvin> ypcx, Macbook hardware tends to be rather expensive - why did you do that?
[03:08] <FrozenFire> crdlb: Ah, I see. Any suggestions?
[03:08] <lunch> i have a DVI-I video card, and when i get HDTV adopter such as, http://cgi.ebay.com/New-Gold-6ft-HDMI-to-DVI-Cable-for-PS3-DVD-LCD-HDTV-6_W0QQitemZ140256933946QQihZ004QQcategoryZ73385QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem   , is there a way for me to pipe sound into my video card, so my tv will only use one cable?
[03:08] <Be1> i would but it seems like my problem is bigger than that
[03:08] <FrozenFire> I'm at a loss as to why this isn't working.
[03:08] <gigatropolis> I need help using the prevu command. Got aan error when trying to install subversion 1.5 but have an error "Please look for a failed dependency or compile error in
[03:08] <gigatropolis> the full output." anyone have time to look I don't get what's wrong from the error message, http://paste.ubuntu.com/36360/
[03:09] <lostogre> Be1: yeah, but it might be a problem that someone else on those boards has had.
[03:09] <Be1> it seems like my packages are messed up or something?
[03:09] <ypcx> sauvin: got first generation macbook pro from my boss - i use linux for many years as primary OS - I gave chance to OSX but it's so inferior to Ubuntu
[03:09] <sauvin> Can't argue that.
[03:09] <Be1> yeah, but is there a way for me to reload my packages or something?
[03:09] <lostogre> Be1: I know that there is an apt command that will rebuild everything, but I don't remember what it is and I am not on a Linux box, so I can't check.
[03:10] <ere4si> FrozenFire: the latest ati binary driver is the first to support s-video afaik
[03:10] <Be1> anyone know what it is?
[03:10] <FreshUbuntuNoob> Bel: NOT SURE AT ALL: sudo apt-get install -f
[03:10] <lostogre> Anyone ever see a SQUASHFS error on install in 804?
[03:10] <ypcx> sauvin: i was totally stunned by the out-of-the-box support for mac hwardware by ubuntu, everything worked (needed to manually install fglrx but that's smallie)
[03:11] <sauvin> I didn't even have to do that.
[03:11] <sauvin> (maybe it's different for cheap HP lappies)
[03:11] <FreshUbuntuNoob> Be1, NOT SURE AT ALL: sudo apt-get install -f
[03:12] <FreshUbuntuNoob> Why does my eth0 come up even though the "auto eth0" line is commented in interfaces?
[03:12] <ypcx> sauvin: well it's better than having to spend 2 weeks getting my 56k modem working, as once:) linux going forward
[03:12] <hwilde> hello are there any music players that can be controlled by a web server type interface?
[03:12] <Hornet_> infinitycircuit: I'm getting the impression that each of those should only be run once though?
[03:12] <slammed87d21> does anyone know how to make my bluetooth work?
[03:12] <hwilde> !bluetooth | slammed87d21
[03:12] <slammed87d21> ok, thanks
[03:13] <Hornet_> hwilde: erm ... random.  why'd you want to?
[03:13] <infinitycircuit> Hornet_, not really, because if you are linking libraries with lots of dependencies its easier to do some one dependency at a time instead of trying to calculate it all out at once
[03:13] <Hornet_> surely if you can hear the music you can access the box
[03:13] <hwilde> Hornet_,  I want to give everyone in the office access to control the playlist.  and they don't all have windows.  and it's already running apache... sooo
[03:14] <Be1> "﻿lostogre: Be1: I know that there is an apt command that will rebuild everything, but I don't remember what it is and I am not on a Linux box, so I can't check." anyone know what that would be?
[03:14] <Hornet_> ah, I see
[03:14] <hwilde> Be1, what do you want to do with apt
[03:14] <Be1> i want to reload my packages somehow
[03:14] <FreshUbuntuNoob> Be1, NOT SURE AT ALL: sudo apt-get install -f
[03:14] <Be1> that doesn't appear to be it though
[03:14] <hwilde> Be1, sudo apt-get update
[03:15] <hwilde> Be1, sudo apt-get upgrade
[03:15] <FreshUbuntuNoob> Be1: Reload from the internet would be : aptitude update
[03:15] <Hornet_> infinitycircuit: fair enough then, so can I expect it to remove itself eventually?
[03:15] <slammed87d21> when i search for my bluetooth in terminal, it says there is no device. suggestions?
[03:15] <infinitycircuit> Be1, to get a list of installed packages that can be parsed by a fresh install, dpkg -l | grep ^ii | awk '{print $2}' | xargs > pkgs.tx
[03:15] <infinitycircuit> Be1, you can then reinstall and use that list to reinstall the same packages
[03:15] <infinitycircuit> Hornet_, what do you mean "remove itself"
[03:15] <ypcx> slammed87d21: not sure what you mean, but you should make your other device discoverable
[03:16] <Hornet_> infinitycircuit: the trigger
[03:16] <Hornet_> it looks to just be stuck, to my untrained eye
[03:16] <infinitycircuit> Hornet_, once it has been processed the trigger "expires", so to speak
[03:16] <Hornet_> all of those I've seen before were oe-offs only
[03:16] <Be1> i am getting errors when i do that
[03:16] <infinitycircuit> if it's hanging with the trigger then something is wrong and you should file a bug
[03:16] <Be1> Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
[03:16] <poohstix16> Ubuntu worked fine on my laptop.  On my desktop it throws me into the mini-shell.  What is the best install-issues resource?  I didn't find anything in the intro doc or the wiki on the web site.
[03:16] <slammed87d21> i am. when i tried to find out what my bluetooth adresse was, terminal said nop device found
[03:16] <infinitycircuit> oh i misunderstood you--i didn't realize this was different from the other times. sorry. this sounds like a bug right now
[03:17] <ypcx> what's your time anyone? 4:16 AM here
[03:17] <hwilde> hello are there any music players that can be controlled by a web server type interface?
[03:17] <Be1> any ideas?
[03:17] <lostogre> hwilde: what are you trying to do?
[03:17] <Hornet_> infinitycircuit: roger then, will do, cheers :)
[03:17] <hwilde> lostogre, control a playlist via webpage
[03:17] <poohstix16> hwilde: What features of a web server type interface do you want?
[03:17] <infinitycircuit> Be1, please try sudo apt-get update --no-pdiffs
[03:17] <Hornet_> google says I'm not alone, but doesn't seem to be too many occurences of it
[03:18] <hwilde> poohstix16, I want everyone in the office to have access to the playlist
[03:18] <hwilde> and they don't all have linux
[03:18] <lostogre> Be1: look on google for info on rebuild the apt chaches and such
[03:18] <poohstix16> hwilde: so you wish to set up your own streaming server?
[03:19] <hwilde> what am I not speaking english here??
[03:19] <ere4si> Be1: try sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a
[03:19] <slammed87d21> so how do i get my laptop to recognize my bluetooth?
[03:19] <hwilde> \\ are there any music players that can be controlled by a web server type interface?
[03:19] <macd> hwilde, ampache will work fine, its in the repos.
[03:19] <Lithium_Ionic> hwilde: I don't know much about it, but you could try Music Player Daemon. I think it's http://www.musicpd.org/
[03:19] <hwilde> !info ampache
[03:19] <Dazed> anybody used xvidcap? When I click record it just closes
[03:19] <hwilde> coool
[03:19] <Lithium_Ionic> Yes, or what macd said :)
[03:19] <hwilde> macd||
[03:19] <Runes> I keep getting a Cannot Mount Volume when I try to plug a 500 gig usb drive formatted in NTFS.  Is there any way to ingnore the message?
[03:19] <FreshUbuntuNoob> Since my NIC is not connected to my router, it sits in ifconfig with no IP address (even though it is assigned as static in interfaces). Does this consume any power in terms of battery for my laptop?

[03:20] <jadder_> hi, everybody
[03:21] <poohstix16> Ubuntu worked fine on my laptop.  On my desktop it throws me into the mini-shell.  What is the best install-issues resource?  I didn't find anything in the intro doc or the wiki on the web site.
[03:21] <slammed87d21> doesnt anyone know anything about bluetooth?
[03:21] <macd> FreshUbuntuNoob, its not in an operational state, so Id venture to say not much
[03:21] <lostogre> Hey everyone. Right now I am stuck on an Windows box, because I can't install 8.04. It gets about 95% done and then I get SQUASHFS errors and the kernel locks up. Any info would be good.
[03:22] <bjb1959> sometimes when firefox pops open new windows or starts up it opens on a different virtual desktop. any ideas what could cause that? I use compiz-fusion by the way.
[03:22] <FreshUbuntuNoob> macd, And is it supposed to do that since I have the "auto eth0" commented in interfaces?
[03:22] <Be1> i'm still gettting the same error
[03:22] <jadder> I get a webcam General Electric easycam pro ho98064 rev.2 +5V as fig, but I coudnt install in my ubuntu 8.04, can you help me please?
[03:22] <Be1> should i just reinstall, i have no data at stake
[03:23] <macd> FreshUbuntuNoob, then its def. not on, that is the same as disabling the device in windows.
[03:23] <lostogre> Be1: if you want. I'd still try doing some research first as you are likely to get the same error.
[03:23] <FreshUbuntuNoob> macd, And then what is the difference if I ifconfig eth0 down it? That completely removes it from ifconfig?
[03:23] <poohstix16> lostogre: Does the liveCD boot work, as a test?
[03:24] <macd> FreshUbuntuNoob, you cant down a device thats not up
[03:24] <FreshUbuntuNoob> macd, Actually; by down, the entry is removed from ifconfig. Right now with auto commented, the entry still shows up
[03:24] <lostogre> poohstix16: yeah, everything is fine. I have zeroed the HD to check it and I have ran memtest. can't find any reason for the failure.
[03:25] <Tera|Byte> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=886185
[03:25] <macd> FreshUbuntuNoob, Im trying to tell you its powered off
[03:25] <K^Holtz> so firefox crashed on me, and now when i try to open it, i can see the mouse turn to the waiting symbol, but firefox never opens. theres no error message or anything. Also, i tried to open a PDF, and while the window came up, it never populated. This happens a lot with FF, any ideas what the issue is?
[03:25] <FreshUbuntuNoob> macd, Just wanted to make sure... It is the same right? I want to save every ounce of my laptop's battery :)
[03:25] <poohstix16> lostogre: At least you have that error to google on.  When I try to use liveCD, it craps out, throwing me into the (boombox?) shell, without saying why.
[03:26] <l337ingDisorder> Can anyone tell me how I can create a link so that instead of having to type "/media/Cargo Bay/" I can just type "/cb/" ?
[03:26] <M3TAP> i have just installed the latest ubuntu on a dell vostro 1000 and unfortunatly the screen is unreadable when booted in ubunutu. when i boot vista the screen is fine but in unbuntu it has blurry lines running across the screen making it unreadable. Any help guys?
[03:26] <lostogre> poohstix16: unfortunately, I have googled it and I can't find anything on it.
[03:26] <jadder> I get a webcam General Electric easycam pro ho98064 rev.2 +5V as fig, but I coudnt install in my ubuntu 8.04, can you help me please? note.. I have a tvcard.. so can be a problem, because Linux thinks is a webcam too...
[03:27] <l337ingDisorder> M3TAP: Did you try booting to "recovery mode" ?
[03:27] <lostogre> poohstix16: did you try dmesg?
[03:27] <needhelpwithmusi> Hello, I need help with my sound, How can i change the sound from the USB to my sound card?
[03:28] <M3TAP> l337ingDisorder, how would i do that.
[03:28] <poohstix16> lostogre: good idea.  The (boombox?) shell is so primitive, I didn't think to try that.  Will do.
[03:28] <ere4si> l337ingDisorder: a bash alias is what that's called - examples at the bottom of ~/.bashrc
[03:28] <needhelpwithmusi> can someone help me with my sound
[03:28] <Lithium_Ionic> lostogre: So the live cd boots up fine? Or are you using the alternative install?
[03:28] <needhelpwithmusi> i can't hear nothing
[03:28] <l337ingDisorder> M3TAP: When the Grub bootloader comes up there should be two options for Ubuntu.. one is normal, one is (recovery mode)
[03:29] <poohstix16> lostogre: My google of squashfs shows it's a read-only fs.  So maybe there's an issue on the CD.  Maybe burn a new one, or otherwise check it?
[03:29] <lostogre> Lithium_Ionic: LiveCD boots fine. install craps out at 95%.
[03:29] <M3TAP> prevsiously i never noticed, i only had two options. one was vista and the second was ubuntu.
[03:29] <Runes> hwilde I followed https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions/ThirdPartyNTFS3G  to mout the external..it was fast and easy!
[03:29] <lostogre> poohstix16: checked the install cd. checksout.
[03:29] <theRealBall> hey ubuntu dudes, yall got /usr/sbin in the $PATH ?
[03:29] <hwilde> Runes, the bot is smart huh
[03:30] <hwilde> theRealBall, yes
[03:30] <theRealBall> shouldn't /usr/sbin be in the path?
[03:30] <Runes> hwilde and practical
[03:30] <M3TAP> l337ingDisorder, what would i do in recovery mode anyway
[03:30] <theRealBall> hwilde i see very wierd opensuse isn't set on mine
[03:30] <theRealBall> thanks
[03:30] <Blaqlight> Im having a problem with mime types, I can't seem to figure out how they all changed.
[03:30] <needhelpwithmusi> Hi everyone, i can't seem to get my sound to work on my ubuntu, my card is been recognized by ubuntu, but no luck
[03:30] <needhelpwithmusi> pls anyone help
[03:30] <cibi> theRealBall: i don't
[03:31] <poohstix16> lostogre: foo.  what hardware?  I'm wondering if there's a problem gunziping something on the CD.
[03:31] <theRealBall> cibi ? no commands from /usr/sbin executable?
[03:31] <theRealBall> oh why would that be i wonder i'm new to linux from using opensolaris that's all
[03:31] <l337ingDisorder> M3TAP: Well I'm not sure - I've never successfully booted to recovery mode. The use I've had for it is when something isn't working and I boot to recovery mode, it usually hangs after trying to load a certain module.. so I can write that module down and troubleshoot that module :)
[03:32] <lostogre> poohstix16: its an old Dell inspiron 8100.
[03:32] <FreshUbuntuNoob> Does anyone know that if iwlist txpower doesn't provide a list, what is the standards for txpower on b43xx?
[03:32] <l337ingDisorder> ere4si: ok so for the bash alias would it just be something like /cb/=/media/Cargo Bay/ ?
[03:32] <needhelpwithmusi> anyone?
[03:33] <needhelpwithmusi> ok, I can get your attention watch this:  LINUX SUCKS, VISTA IS THE BEST!!!!
[03:33] <cibi> needhelpwithmusi: indeed
[03:33] <ere4si> l337ingDisorder: a command would be good e.g. cd /media/Cargo Bay/
[03:33] <hwilde> needhelp, watch this
[03:33] <schnootop> lol
[03:33] <hwilde> !ops
[03:33] <lostogre> needhelpwithmusi: no need to get insulting
[03:34] <Blaqlight> its also funny, I can get a pdf to open in evince document viewer with another user, but this one I can't. I just don't get this.
[03:34] <FreshUbuntuNoob> needhelpwithmusi, If someone with enough experience is able to help you, he/she will reply
[03:34] <poohstix16> lostogre: Sorry, no more clever ideas here.
[03:34] <cibi> needhelpwithmusi: everyone has a slight different taste, i guess
[03:34] <hwilde> Myrtti, ty
[03:34] <Blaqlight> can someone help me figure this out?
[03:34] <hwilde> Blaqlight, ls -l the file what are the permissions
[03:34] <l337ingDisorder> ere4si: nm, found exactly what I need: the command would be ln -s "/media/Cargo Bay" "/cb"
[03:34] <lostogre> poohstix16: thanks anyway.
[03:34] <M3TAP> l337ingDisorder, im going to try your suggestion now..
[03:34] <l337ingDisorder> thanks for the help :)

[03:35] <l337ingDisorder> M3TAP such as the module it hangs on and anything related to the error/hanging
[03:35] <FreshUbuntuNoob> Brucee, Yes, I have under WINE
[03:35] <gilda> photoshop cs1 / and photoshop 7 will install in wine with no issues
[03:35] <l337ingDisorder> M3TAP: If it makes it into the recover mode without hanging, you're on your own ;)
[03:35] <lostogre> needhelpwithmusi: what's the prob?
[03:35] <Blaqlight> hwilde, I have read/write permissions
[03:35] <gilda> cs2 bridge isnt happy
[03:35] <Brucee> i am trying to get it under cs2 with hardy
[03:35] <FreshUbuntuNoob> Brucee, It is pretty straightforward. Everything is mostly supported out of the box
[03:35] <Myrtti> needhelpwithmusi: in order to get help, there is no need to be insulting or start trolling
[03:36] <Brucee> but i get error "could not allocate memroy for activation'please close all programs and restart
[03:36] <vista> i suck:)
[03:36] <poohstix16> rzec: I have the same problem exactly on my desktop, but on my laptop it works fine.  dektop is a home-built system.
[03:36] <K^Holtz> so firefox crashed on me, and now when i try to open it, i can see the mouse turn to the waiting symbol, but firefox never opens. theres no error message or anything. Also, i tried to open a PDF, and while the window came up, it never populated. This happens a lot with FF, any ideas what the issue is?
[03:36] <Myrtti> needhelpwithmusi: please, elaborate your problem well enough so you can be helped, properly.
[03:36] <hwilde> K^Holtz, did you get all the updates?
[03:36] <lostogre> needhelpwithmusi: your sound isn't working. what have you tried?
[03:36] <K^Holtz> hwilde: yea
[03:36] <rzec> i am having the issue on my laptop
[03:37] <hwilde> K^Holtz, lotta people were having trouble with old firefox, but I thought it was fixed int he updates.  are you sure you got them all
[03:37] <Blaqlight> hwilde, it says unknown mime type
[03:37] <hwilde> Blaqlight, I do not think that is a legitimate pdf file
[03:37] <poohstix16> rzec: Someone just suggested to me to check dmesg output.  (But, I need to reboot into Ubuntu to check, so I'm stalling.)
[03:37] <K^Holtz> hwilde: i always download the most recent updates as long as they are pushed to synaptic.. i dont see why i wouldnt have it... i cant open FF right now to tell u for sure
[03:38] <needhelpwithmusi> I also have tried to setup my card to NVidia, and not my usb
[03:38] <Blaqlight> hwilde, it is, because it opens with another user in that exact program, and opens fine.
[03:38] <FreshUbuntuNoob> Does anyone know the tx-power available on bcm 4311. My iwlist tx-power doesn't provide me with a list
[03:38] <kenzy> which gfx card has good support under linux nvidia geforce 9800 or ati radeon 4850 ?
[03:38] <hwilde> Blaqlight, so your user profile is borked ?
[03:38] <nitai> how do i open a directory from fluxbox menu ?
[03:38] <needhelpwithmusi> such as sudo asoundconf set-...... NVidia
[03:38] <d0lphin_n0el> hello i´m sorry the question but i reboot my personal computer whith ubuntu and ... it give one grub error 17 i think ... and theproblem is the partition looks it is not reconize ... it strat to giving to meproblems this week the computer start to be a litle slow and now this ... the partition looks have change someone knows how cna i recover the partition ... or change it to ext3 because whith hiren cd looks it is whith ext2 if i´m not mistake or d
[03:38] <Blaqlight> hwilde, yeah I think so.
[03:38] <needhelpwithmusi> and no luck
[03:38] <hwilde> K^Holtz, sudo apt-get remove --purge firefox && sudo apt-get install firefox
[03:38] <Blaqlight> hwilde, how do I fix it?
[03:38] <hwilde> Blaqlight, right click on the pdf, go to properties,  open with,  choose the right pdf viewer
[03:38] <Blaqlight> hwilde, I did, it won't
[03:39] <Blaqlight> but only in this user.
[03:39] <K^Holtz> hwilde: oh yea, thats another thing when this FF crash happens to me, Terminal will load, but no prompt will display... there is also no menu
[03:39] <hwilde> Blaqlight, sorry then your user profile is messed up I don't know.
[03:39] <Blaqlight> does anyone know how to fix it?
[03:39] <needhelpwithmusi> I have two sound cards available on my box,  NVidia and U0x46d0x8ca
[03:39] <hwilde> K^Holtz, I think your window manager is crashing not just firefox
[03:39] <needhelpwithmusi> and...
[03:39] <hwilde> K^Holtz, do you have compiz and all the fancy effects on
[03:39] <d0lphin_n0el> i have there proably things whith 5 or more years of information because i put the stuff there because i need to change from the hd
[03:39] <K^Holtz> hwilde: yea, i think your right.. no, my laptop cant handle any compiz functions, so its all turned off
[03:40] <lostogre> needhelpwithmusi: have you installed the restricted drivers?
[03:40] <hwilde> K^Holtz, if you run   metacity --replace   does it fix your menu
[03:40] <needhelpwithmusi> lostogre, i believe so
[03:40] <d0lphin_n0el> anyone knwosif is ppossibale change the partition ext2 to ext3 whithout delete the data?!

[03:40] <K^Holtz> hwilde: :/ i cant really check that because i cant get terminal to load
[03:40] <Blaqlight> Im just going to go into a few choice folders and start deleteing files until I find one thats the problem then I guess.

[03:41] <needhelpwithmusi> hwidle, i tried to set both of them and no sound
[03:41] <hwilde> d0lphin_n0el, boot into live cd,  mount the drive, copy all your files to a backup
[03:41] <lostogre> needhelpwithmusi: first, does your display work?
[03:42] <poohstix16> Blaqlight: Which application?  You might find the settings file starting with a "." (dot), depending on the app.
[03:42] <needhelpwithmusi> lostogree, my display is great
[03:42] <d0lphin_n0el> the partition is there ...
[03:42] <hwilde> needhelpwithmusi, you tried asoundconf set-default-card  ?
[03:42] <hwilde> d0lphin_n0el, last time I am going to repeat:   boot into live cd,  mount the drive, copy all your files to a backup
[03:42] <d0lphin_n0el> there are no like  mbr change to the linux partition?!

[03:42] <lostogre> needhelpwithmusi: ok, hang on.
[03:42] <Blaqlight> poohstix16, all of everything related to gnome in this user is borked.

[03:43] <needhelpwithmusi> lostogre, thanks
[03:43] <hwilde> Blaqlight, so make a different user profile already
[03:43] <d0lphin_n0el> hwilde what live cd do you recomend to me?!
[03:43] <hwilde> d0lphin_n0el, the ubuntu live cd
[03:43] <Blaqlight> hwilde, I have.
[03:43] <needhelpwithmusi> To those who were insulted by my rude remark, please accept my humble apology
[03:43] <poohstix16> Blaqlight: How'd they do that, I wonder?
[03:43] <hwilde> Blaqlight, so then what is the prob
[03:43] <tlove> test
[03:43] <hwilde> Blaqlight, use the user profile that isn't messed up... move on
[03:43] <Blaqlight> hwilde, what is wrong with trying to fix this profile.
[03:44] <d0lphin_n0el> hwilde man it dont work ... the ubuntu dont rconize the partition ... that the problem understand now?! i allready try this beford
[03:44] <lostogre> needhelpwithmusi: no problem, just looking something up.
[03:44] <hwilde> Blaqlight,   unborking that mime setting falls somewhere between needle in a haystack and wild goose chase
[03:44] <d0lphin_n0el> whith hiren cd and everything i got 5 years or more there of info
[03:44] <hwilde> d0lphin_n0el, if the livecd doesn't recognize it then you have serious problems.
[03:44] <FreshUbuntuNoob> Does anyone know the tx-powers available on bcm 4311 ?
[03:45] <d0lphin_n0el> hwilde if it is windows i can recover probably the partition so im asking if there is some software recomended looks like ...
[03:45] <hwilde> d0lphin_n0el, you could try to rebuild the partition table with gparted.   or cfdisk
[03:45] <d0lphin_n0el> hwilde i try but gparted it says to rebuild dont delete the partition?!
[03:46] <needhelpwithmusi> wow

[03:46] <needhelpwithmusi> when i open a windoe
[03:46] <needhelpwithmusi> I GOT IT

[03:47] <FreshUbuntuNoob> needhelpwithmusi, Congratulations. For those who might be interested. What triggered the solution?
[03:47] <theRealBall> fedora dudes were cool enough to tell me su is actually = su -l
[03:47] <Jordan_U> cwill747: Most of them will be .files in your home folder

[03:48] <needhelpwithmusi> !love | hwilde
[03:48] <hwilde> d0lphin_n0el, as long as you don't format the whole drive your data will be there.  except for that partition table part you are overwriting
[03:48] <cwill747> poohstix16: idk... most of them? mostly my application preferences
[03:48] <needhelpwithmusi> i know hwilde
[03:48] <needhelpwithmusi> alrite i am going out

[03:49] <K^Holtz> hwilde: i have FF 3.01
[03:49] <FreshUbuntuNoob> Does anyone know the tx-powers available on bcm 4311 ? my iwlist doesn't show them
[03:49] <poohstix16> cwill747: You can tar up your entire user directory, and restore it (or portions of it) on the new system.
[03:49] <d0lphin_n0el> hwilde so rebuild the partition but dont format is this?!
[03:49] <hwilde> K^Holtz, what is your uname -a
[03:49] <d0lphin_n0el> damit :\
[03:49] <hwilde> FreshUbuntuNoob, why don't you go search the manufacturer website for tech specs.
[03:50] <hwilde> d0lphin_n0el, just delete and recreate the partition table;  DONT format the entire partition
[03:50] <K^Holtz> hwilde: Linux Ubu 2.6.24-19-generic #1 SMP Fri Jul 11 23:41:49 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux
[03:50] <d0lphin_n0el> hwilde ok thanks i will try it
[03:50] <chamunks> is it possible on a server to assign different internet ip addresses to different virtual network interfaces??
[03:50] <hwilde> K^Holtz, ok that's what I got
[03:50] <jadder>  I get a webcam General Electric easycam pro ho98064 rev.2 +5V as gif, but I couldn't install in my ubuntu 8.04, can you help me please?, also I have a tvcard.. work , but my ubuntu thinks is a webcam too
[03:50] <d0lphin_n0el> hwilde man but if i delete the partition every information that is in the partition dont will be deleted?!
[03:50] <hwilde> d0lphin_n0el, just delete and recreate the partition table;  DONT format the entire partition
[03:50] <K^Holtz> hwilde: the update/upgrade installed 0 packages
[03:51] <d0lphin_n0el> yes i understand what you are say im fear to do this :\
[03:51] <hwilde> K^Holtz, well, the terminal popping up thing but no prompt, that sounds like your window manager crashing
[03:51] <cwill747> poohstix16: ohh i like the idea.
[03:51] <cwill747> poohstix16: thanks
[03:51] <d0lphin_n0el> you shure it dont delete ...?!
[03:51] <K^Holtz> hwilde: is there a fix for that?
[03:51] <hwilde> d0lphin_n0el, no I am not sure.  don't touch it.
[03:51] <poohstix16> cwill747: sure
[03:51] <chamunks> is it possible on a server to assign different internet ip addresses to different virtual network interfaces??
[03:51] <hwilde> d0lphin_n0el, if it's so important to you, pay the $50 to have an expert recover the data off your drive before you destroy it.
[03:51] <hwilde> chamunks, yes
[03:51] <d0lphin_n0el> hwilde looks like ... thanks anyway
[03:52] <d0lphin_n0el> lol i have to put all backup to this hard drive LOL
[03:52] <d0lphin_n0el> HohHOhoHOhohoHo
[03:52] <poohstix16> d0lphin_n0el: you could also dd a copy of the partition to another drive as a backup.  But if it's a huge partition, that could be tedious.
[03:52] <d0lphin_n0el> unbealiver
[03:52] <hwilde> K^Holtz, you could try installing icewm  and see if it crashes in there.  that would isolate it a bit to gnome +/- metacity
[03:53] <hwilde> d0lphin_n0el, you could download a ghost cd and image the entire drive
[03:53] <chamunks> hwilde, as i figured i just needed to know im not chasing ghosts..
[03:53] <hwilde> bit for bit
[03:53] <K^Holtz> hwilde: should i try that metacity --replace thing now that its working? what does that command do?
[03:53] <FreshUbuntuNoob> RF output power would be Tx-Power for WLAN Card?
[03:53] <hwilde> chamunks, ifconfig eth0:1 192.168.0.123 netmask 255.255.255.0
[03:53] <hwilde> FreshUbuntuNoob, yep
[03:53] <chamunks> hwilde, wow thanks!
[03:53] <hwilde> K^Holtz, I think that is for when it crashes
[03:54] <FreshUbuntuNoob> hwilde, Well this is odd. The site says that my card supports a max of 20 dBm. Right now it is on 27 dBm as per iwconfig :|
[03:54] <chamunks> hwilde, how do i create virtual interfaces?
[03:54] <K^Holtz> hwilde: so getting rid of gnome is my only real option ? ;/
[03:54] <hwilde> chamunks, in your /etc/network/interfaces file
[03:54] <hwilde> K^Holtz, that is something to try to isolate it
[03:54] <chamunks> hwilde, thanks allot
[03:54] <hwilde> chamunks, if you jsut want to test,   ifconfig eth0:1 up
[03:55] <d0lphin_n0el> many backups there lol i cant bealiver lol :x
[03:55] <hwilde> chamunks, then set the ip as above
[03:55] <d0lphin_n0el> whatever
[03:55] <d0lphin_n0el> :\
[03:55] <d0lphin_n0el> letsme try
[03:55] <d0lphin_n0el> :x
[03:55] <FloodBot1> d0lphin_n0el: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:55] <K^Holtz> hwilde: is that an involved process? and am i able to easily switch back if i want?
[03:55] <chamunks> hwilde, many thanks
[03:55] <hwilde> K^Holtz, all you ahve to do is apt-get install icewm   then on the login screen pick that session.  switching back is as easy at ctrl+alt+backspace
[03:56] <mekgp> anyone a connection sharing guru in here??
[03:56] <K^Holtz> hwilde: ok, ill keep that in mind, the thing is, the crash isnt exactly easily reproducable, so it would be kinda hard to test if it fixes the problem or now
[03:56] <K^Holtz> not*
[03:56] <theRealBall> anyone here got zfs-fuse?
[03:56] <lukehasnonam1> Anyone have trouble with Network manager? The panel icon will disappear sometimes when I try to connect, and then I can't connect at all
[03:56] <hwilde> K^Holtz, run in icewm for a bit and open firefox and pdfs and stuff
[03:57] <hwilde> K^Holtz, if it doesn't crash it doesn't crash
[03:57] <user__> Hi, I am trying to connect to a WEP 'protected' wireless network using 8.04 on a Toshiba Satellite.  I can connect to unprotected  but I the WEP fails to connect
[03:57] <rporter> I'm trying to connect to usenet, anyone know what my server should be?
[03:57] <hwilde> K^Holtz, you need to figure out of firefox is crashing or your window manager... so the other thing is try a different browser like opera
[03:57] <hwilde> user__, is your wep key ascii or hex
[03:58] <user__> My wep key is ascii
[03:58] <K^Holtz> hwilde: alright, thanks
[03:58] <user__> the wap is a Sonicwall
[03:58] <Jordan_U> cwill747: If you grab your entire /home it should have everything user specific ( it won't have system wide preferences like network settings though )
[03:59] <Nutt718> Does anyone know how to view the email internet headers in Evolution?
[03:59] <cwill747> Jordan_U: that's cool i don't need those, i can get by re doing it all
[03:59] <hwilde> Nutt718,   View - Message Display - Show Full Headers   ??
[04:00] <Nutt718> hwilde, thanks
[04:02] <xubuntu_user> Hi, i am unable to use apt-get to download any packages.
[04:02] <xubuntu_user> Would a proxy be causing problems like this?
[04:03] <xubuntu_user> Theoretically i am not using a proxy, considering this is a fresyh install, but network stuff has been acting fishy latel
[04:03] <Flannel> xubuntu_user: Do you successfully download package lists with apt-get update?
[04:03] <meoblast001> ahhh
[04:04] <meoblast001> wine registry editor wont load my FL Studio Regkey
[04:04] <FreshUbuntuNoob> Well this is odd. The broadcom site says that my card supports a max of 20 dBm. Right now it is on 27 dBm as per iwconfig. Could this hurt my WLAN card?
[04:04] <xubuntu_user> (that could be my problem, i havent run that; in past installs it automatically updates)
[04:04] <xubuntu_user> i feel pretty dumb :(
[04:04] <xubuntu_user> thanks flannel :)
[04:05] <meoblast001> this is frustrating me so
[04:06] <Flannel> meoblast001: Try #winehq
[04:06] <gilda> meoblast001: have u tried #winehq
[04:07] <tlove> Hey how do i find out if there are channels inside of a channel using Gnomeirc?
[04:08] <Runes> how do you get nautilus filemanager to run as root?
[04:08] <Flannel> tlove: What?
[04:08] <gilda> gksudo nautilus
[04:08] <tlove> Flannel: Like i went on to EFnet and when im in there i go into a channel. is that it? or are there like more channels?
[04:09] <Flannel> tlove: there's lots of channels on each IRC server.  There aren't channels inside of channels though.
[04:09] <Chris|> tlove type: /list to list all the channels and type /join #channel-name to joina  room
[04:09] <tlove> alright thank you
[04:10] <hal_v2> Okay, so Amarok just shut down, and now it's saying mp3's wont play. When I try to install the crap it tells me to I get this. http://pastebin.com/m13fc404b
[04:10] <hal_v2> Everything worked fine before.
[04:13] <Dazed> ive got my vbox running xp all setup on my second workspace, ive got my ubuntu all setup the way i want on my first workspace... got my cube desktop on so i can switch between them with a flick of the wrist... This must be what jesus felt like.
[04:14] <gilda> Dazed: now all you need as a wii remote to flip your cube around
[04:14] <tyler__> hey in ubuntu...what is the default program to burn cds?
[04:14] <Dazed> woah
[04:15] <Dazed> Brasero I think
[04:15] <gilda> tyler__: default brasero
[04:15] <bastid_raZor> tyler__; brasero for gnome k3b for kde
[04:15] <BitWraith> Dazed, your right, that's a pretty sweet setup
[04:16] <Dazed> i turned up the antialiasing too
[04:16] <Dazed> so its all crisp and sexy
[04:16] <BitWraith> does wubi run *in* windows instead of just by itself? (via vmware or qemu, etc.)
[04:16] <ForgeAus> I think http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/derivatives is out of date, I mean Xubuntu surely qualifies as Officially suported by now ???
[04:16] <BitWraith> or would I have to get it to do that myself
[04:17] <Dazed> it doesnt look like it wraith
[04:17] <binaryflow> I reinstalled ubuntu on my Latitude D620 to encrypt the hard drive.  Sound was working before the rebuild but does not work at all now.  If I change the hardware in System Settings to oss I can hear system sound but nothing else.  Alsa doesn't do anything.  Fully patched.  Gnome, KDE and KDE4 installed.  Any ideas?
[04:17] <ForgeAus> fluxbuntu and elbuntu  are two interesting alternatives of course you can basically just take any WM and place a catchy part of the name before buntu lol :)
[04:17] <Dazed> wubi is just the thing for installing ubuntu while in windows i think
[04:17] <ForgeAus> I'm suprised there ins't a Stepbuntu or Nextbuntu too!
[04:18] <BitWraith> I am still thinking about putting wubi on my Vista handheld, but nobody can tell me what to expect from the power management and device drivers
[04:18] <gilda> ya i think so Dazed like the debian32installer.exe
[04:18] <Dazed> they will probably suck wraith
[04:19] <wep_trouble> Any thoughts why the WEP negotiation would fail?
[04:19] <gilda> wrong key >?
[04:19] <BitWraith> Personally, I hate windows, and vista isn't close to an exception... but I am pretty sure there are two or three hardware devices (depending on the distro) that will not work in linux without massive hassles (assuming they work at all...)
[04:19] <Flannel> ForgeAus: no, Xubuntu is not officially supported.
[04:20] <TeslaTony> BitWraith: Like what?
[04:20] <gilda> BitWraith: have you looked at the HCL's ?
[04:20] <BitWraith> the device has a fingerprint reader (I don't use anyway) a touchscreen, and a WWAN modem
[04:20] <BitWraith> all of which will be problematic as far as I can tell
[04:20] <infinitycircuit> BitWraith, what machine is this again?
[04:20] <Flannel> BitWraith: Fingerprint is fine, Touchscreen will depend on the brand,
[04:20] <infinitycircuit> BitWraith, fingerprint is fine, most touchscreens work, and most wwan work
[04:21] <BitWraith> gilda, I don't know what you mean, so the answer is probably no
[04:21] <gilda> BitWraith: HCL - hardware compatability list
[04:21] <BitWraith> Flannel, all research I've done on the UX390N model and ubuntu has said taht the touchscreen is a noop
[04:21] <Z[e]R0> 140.211.166.4
[04:22] <haris_> hey guys
[04:22] <wols> BitWraith: why wubI?
[04:22] <ndf> how can i tell which version (x86/x64) of 8.04 hardy i am running?
[04:22] <infinitycircuit> ndf, uname -a will tell you
[04:22] <haris_> i connected my laptop to my tv with s-video out and i see a clone of my ubuntu login screen...but as soon as i log in there is nothing on the tv screen
[04:22] <ndf> k thanks
[04:22] <BitWraith> because I don't know how many problems I will run into using this specific device, so I don't want to evict vista just yet
[04:22] <haris_> any help?
[04:22] <gilda> ndf: uname -a
[04:23] <wols> BitWraith: dual boot instead
[04:23] <BitWraith> wols, that involves partition resizing though
[04:23] <infinitycircuit> ndf, uname -m will only give you that answer if you need it for a script or something
[04:23] <wols> BitWraith: but avoids wubi
[04:23] <gilda> BitWraith: have u tested the live cd ?
[04:23] <BitWraith> gilda, no
[04:24] <witchlight> y not
[04:24] <ndf> infinitycircuit / gilda : 'i686', is that x86/x64? or neither?
[04:24] <infinitycircuit> ndf, that is x86
[04:24] <ndf> k thanks
[04:24] <ndf> lol @ botnet
[04:24] <infinitycircuit> ugh brutal set of bots
[04:24] <gilda> ndf:  sorry lost u there in all the join/exits
[04:24] <BitWraith> the device doesn't have a disc drive and it doesn't do usb flash booting, so getting it to run anything but wubi will require me to dig up my removable drive
[04:25] <BitWraith> I didn't bother to do that yet
[04:25] <wols> !ops | someone kick the bots
[04:25] <gilda> BitWraith: how bout testing in a vm on the vistaboxen ?
[04:25] <wols> gilda: that is useless
[04:25] <gilda> wols: o well worht a shot in the dark
[04:25] <BitWraith> gilda, that would not be native, it would not matter what device it was running on (and it would be slow)

[04:30] <Fostix> I just installed ubuntu and I keep getting an error at startup... 'Err2Err3'. I have a Compaq persario.
[04:30] <Fostix> It goes to ubuntu when I press enter
[04:32] <wols> Fostix: sounds like grub
[04:32] <BitWraith> Fostix, does your machine load up a high-res framebuffer before showing that?
[04:32] <Fostix> wols: I installed and reinstalled grub several times, did fdisk /mbr installed windows, overwrote windows with ubuntu. same thing.
[04:33] <wols> Fritten: do you get a grub menu?
[04:33] <BitWraith> if so, that would rule out grub (the kernel does that, grub tries to leave your terminal the way it is)
[04:33] <Fostix> bitwraith: no, this is well before grub starts.
[04:33] <BitWraith> the kernel doesn't always do that though,
[04:33] <Fostix> bitwraith: OpenSuSe is fine, Windows is fine, Ubuntu, not so good.
[04:34] <BitWraith> that's odd... that means it _has _ to be the BIOS, but who knows why it would do such a thing
[04:34] <FloodBot1> NOTICE - If you couldn't speak to the channel during the past minutes, please try again now.
[04:34] <Fostix> bitwraith: it only has ubuntu on it right now, no other o/s'
[04:34] <BitWraith> Fostix, is it possible that ubuntu has done something odd to your partition table leaving head information that is innacurate and your BIOS is failing miserably at warning you?
[04:35] <Fostix> I am unsure why Ubuntu is the only one with the problem.
[04:35] <BitWraith> head or cycle or something... I know there is some of that data that can be wrong
[04:35] <Fostix> Bitwraith: how would I check? Ever other o/s I've tried works.
[04:35] <Fostix> Bitwraith: with no error
[04:36] <bastid_raZor> does AWN require compiz or can it be run in metacity as well?

[04:37] <BitWraith> MrPickle, ctrl+alt+f1
[04:37] <MrPickle> bitwraith, thnx

[04:39] <BitWraith> Fostix, in my experience, ubuntu has been prettly lame with systems that have two discs
[04:39] <infinitycircuit> manolo, those look like errors because /bin/sh is linked to /bin/dash instead of /bin/bash
[04:39] <BitWraith> but they might have improved
[04:39] <infinitycircuit> try running the scripts with bash
[04:39] <MrPickle> what kind of hardware class would a cursor control device fall under?
[04:39] <IndyGunFreak> BitWraith: what dfo you mean two disks?

[04:40] <BitWraith> when I installed ubuntu on the second disk of such a system, it hijacked the windows bootloader on the first drive... bad experience. X-D
[04:40] <Fostix> lol
[04:41] <MrPickle> what kind of hardware class would a mouse or pointer device be in?
[04:41] <BitWraith> I needed ms-sys to fix it
[04:41] <manolo> sorry about the flood.
[04:41] <IndyGunFreak> BitWraith: well yeah, thats what its supposed to do.
[04:41] <wols> MrPickle: input device
[04:41] <Fostix> Anyone else expirience Err2Err3 on boot?
[04:41] <monteslu> anyone know what the GUI tool is to set up ldap? It popped up using this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LDAPClientAuthentication , but I can't figure out what sas called
[04:41] <IndyGunFreak> that doesn't make it bad BitWraith just apparently didn't do what you wanted(although thats what its supposed to do)
[04:42] <MrPickle> wols, i figured that much, but how can i get lshw to recognize that?
[04:42] <monteslu> s/sas/was
[04:42] <manolo> ﻿infinitycircuit: thank you for the information, but i do not know how to use it. how could i solve this problem being new to ubuntu?
[04:42] <wols> MrPickle: how is it connected?
[04:42] <monteslu> setup ldap client auth, i mean
[04:42] <infinitycircuit> manolo, try /bin/bash k3m
[04:42] <MrPickle> wols, onboard [laptop touchpad and nub]- also usb
[04:42] <BitWraith> IndyGunFreak, my point is, it never asked me which drive to put the bootloader on, it just put it there... no installer should make assumptions like that when it could be wrong.
[04:43] <bastid_raZor> Attempted to unregister path (path[0] = org path[1] = freedesktop) which isn't registered  ::: i'm getting about 30 or so of this exact same error in .xsession-error
[04:43] <wols> MrPickle: lsusb
[04:43] <IndyGunFreak> BitWraith: well thats not necessarily a problem, you shoulda researched the installler better, its fairly well known.
[04:44] <pyrite_> Anyone avalible to help me with a serious grub issue?
[04:44] <MrPickle> wols, right now usb is not connected, but it also is not working- im right now working in GRUB[i think] and i need to find and reenable my touchpad on this thing
[04:44] <wols> bastid_raZor: grub overwriting the MBR of 0x80 hdd is normal and right
[04:44] <Sinnerman> helllo anyone used the asus p5k se motherboard with ubuntu? any problems? what about the asus 8600 gt card v/s the asus 9600 gso card with 512 mb ram? i read on the net that the latter is just not worth the money. any issues i should be thinking of? im getting that stuff today.
[04:44] <infinitycircuit> !ask | pyrite_
[04:44] <wols> MrPickle: you cannot do that in grub
[04:44] <BitWraith> IndyGunFreak, I have never seen something like that about ubuntu that doesn't ask and make sure it's configured the way I want it. it caught me off guard
[04:44] <infinitycircuit> MrPickle, you are probably in the initramfs, not grub
[04:45] <wols> Sinnerman: #hardware
[04:45] <wols> !hcl | Sinnerman
[04:45] <MrPickle> inifinity circuit, its what came up when i hit ctrl+alt+f1
[04:45] <Sinnerman> wols: thanks.
[04:45] <rand0m> this is a tough question i think - my motive is that i have a bookmark in firefox on my windows partition - i'm currently on my ubuntu partition and don't feel like rebooting to access the bookmarked website.. what would be my best course of action?
[04:45] <wols> !ntfs3g | rand0m
[04:45] <pyrite_> :P  I was making an attempt to install winXP on a 2nd hard drive.   The install failed, as apparently my xp CD is scratched beyond repair,  but it did not fail before apparently molesting my GRUB.   as of right now nothing i have read on the web has been of any assistance in repairing grub.
[04:45] <infinitycircuit> MrPickle, that's bash :)
[04:45] <wols> MrPickle: that's a normal shell, console
[04:46] <bastid_raZor> wols; MBR.. you're suggesting i had/have windows? this is a fresh install of hardy with no windows anywhere near ..ever
[04:46] <wols> !grub | pyrite_
[04:46] <wols> bastid_raZor: sorry, wrong tab complete
[04:46] <MrPickle> infinitycircuit, ah- in any case, i cant scroll up, so when i do lshw, i see only the last 15 devices [when i use -short]. I need to know the hw class that my mouse input would fall under
[04:47] <rand0m> wols: i have that installed already.. i just don't know how to, while running ubuntu, actually get to a bookmark that i bookmarked in windows
[04:47] <bastid_raZor> wols; oh.. okay
[04:47] <infinitycircuit> MrPickle, Shift+PgUp
[04:47] <wols> rand0m: look for a bookmarks* file in a mozilla dreictory. bookmarks.html IIRC
[04:47] <BitWraith> MrPickle, I'm sorry I didn't explain what I sent you to look at, I thought it owuld be self-explainatory
[04:47] <wols> MrPickle: lshw | less
[04:47] <pyrite_> wols: as i stated, i have tried that to no avail
[04:48] <wols> !errors | pyrite_
[04:48] <BitWraith> you're looking at a framebuffer console managed by the Linux kernel, displaying a shell. (BaSH in this case)
[04:48] <MrPickle> well half of me now feels stupid and half of me now feels scared, there is no listing for any kind of input device under lshw
[04:48] <pyrite_> wols: this is the  result of that
[04:48] <wols> MrPickle: lspci | grep hci
[04:48] <pyrite_> !pastebin
[04:49] <wols> erm, lsmod | grep hci   rather
[04:49] <MrPickle> wols, that pulls no info
[04:49] <MrPickle> wait
[04:49] <MrPickle> yes it does
[04:49] <BitWraith> MrPickle, Linux keeps multiple framebuffers open. if you press another function key instead of f1 in that key combo I gave you, you can have multiple terminals open, and even multiple X sessions
[04:50] <manolo> infinitycircuit: thank you, you save my life. it is running. Just one more question. What can i do to see program under aplications/education?
[04:50] <BitWraith> your X session is still chillin on ctrl+alt+f7
[04:50] <infinitycircuit> manolo, do you mean education programs don't show up in the menu? go to the menu, right click, go to edit menus, and enable the education money
[04:50] <MrPickle> bitwraith, thnx for that, but im really not concerned about the x-session until i can get my controls back online
[04:51] <BitWraith> alright. I know this is an obvious question... did you unplug/plug in the mouse?
[04:51] <MrPickle> wols, lsmod | grep hci pulls three devices: ehci_hcd; uhci_hcd, and usbcor
[04:52] <MrPickle> bitwraith, the mouse is onboard [touchpad and nub]
[04:52] <pyrite_> wols: http://paste.ubuntu.com/36384/ is the error
[04:52] <wols> MrPickle: have you restarted X?
[04:52] <MrPickle> wols, yes
[04:52] <kindofabuzz> cannot boot with firestarter installed. boot hangs and i get BUG: soft lockup -CPU#0 stuck for 11s! [events/0:6]  any ideas?
[04:52] <emma> Anyone here have any experience setting up wpa with a lynxys G wireless router on Ubuntu?  I seem to have set it up. I have entered in a key on the router, but then on Ubuntu I get a screen asking me for user name and password when I try to access the wifi network. What is the username supposed to be there? Is the password the key that I entered?
[04:53] <MrPickle> emma, is the screen for login to the linksys?
[04:53] <infinitycircuit> pyrite_, did you run the correct root (hdX,Y) before running setup (hd0)?
[04:53] <pyrite_> yes
[04:53] <BitWraith> MrPickle, did you look at dmesg to see if it has any info about your mouse?
[04:53] <pyrite_> infinitycircuit: err yes :P
[04:53] <MrPickle> bitwraith, not sure what that would be listed as
[04:53] <emma> MrPickle: I don't quite get the question. I am able to login to the router itself to make config changes, but I'm talking about being able to get on the network.
[04:53] <infinitycircuit> someone remind me how to tell the ops to ban someone for PMing me with spam
[04:53] <BitWraith> dmesg | grep pad
[04:53] <MrPickle> emma, what kind of security did you set up?
[04:53] <Flannel> infinitycircuit: #ubuntu-ops
[04:54] <emma> WPA personal
[04:54] <Some_Person> Ubuntu, ubuntu, they drink it in the Congo!
[04:54] <bazhang> infinitycircuit, talk to people in #freenode if they are not in the channel
[04:54] <emma> WPA algorithm is TKIP
[04:54] <infinitycircuit> bazhang, Flannel thank you
[04:54] <emma> MrPickle: ^
[04:54] <MrPickle> emma, wpa should not be requiring a un/pw; thats really only for a plea network
[04:55] <MrPickle> emma, try doing a manual config of your wireless card
[04:55] <manolo> infiintycircuit: I can see all the education programs in the menu but the one I have just installed do not show up in the menu so  i need to use terminal to run it.
[04:55] <MrPickle> bitwraith, dmesg | grep pad pulls no info
[04:55] <BitWraith> dmesg | grep mouse
[04:56] <BitWraith> pad was a  bit of a shot in the dark, sorry
[04:56] <emma> MrPickle: when I try to access the network (which by the way I have been able to use when it is unsecured, or WEP), I get a dialog box on Ubuntu that says, "Passphrase Required by Wireless Network". It says Wireless Security: LEAP, and asks for username and password. It gives me a choice of key management of IEEE 802.1X or WPA-EAP
[04:56] <MrPickle> bitwraith, it lists macintosh mouse button emulation and ps/2 mouse device common
[04:57] <pyrite_> infinitycircuit: also, i am on the liveCD right now,  and i can look at all my partitions, i can view the files and what not,  so i know everything is still in tact.. except GRUB
[04:57] <MrPickle> emma, go to System>administration>network and manually configure your wireless card
[04:57] <emma> MrPickle: But I do not know what LEAP is nor IEEE nor WPA-EAP
[04:58] <dev_n00b> How would I install Ubuntu 8.04 on a RAID 0 array on a Netcell based RAID controller?
[04:58] <BitWraith> if you do "dmesg |less -" there might be more info just before the mention of the common PS/2 device
[04:58] <Ashex> what is the plugin directory for firefox?
[04:58] <MrPickle> emma, when you do the manual config, it will offer you WPA or LEAP from a drop down menu, just do wpa and it will request only the pw
[04:59] <Fostix> Is there a linux boot sector repair tool?
[04:59] <IndyGunFreak> emma: i was just about to suggest that, when i just saw you say LEAP, i realized the prob, I believe Mr. Pickle is right
[04:59] <kindofabuzz> cannot boot with firestarter installed. boot hangs and i get BUG: soft lockup -CPU#0 stuck for 11s! [events/0:6]  any ideas? before that line i get: ndiswrapper (NdisWriteErrorLogEntry:194): code 0x10e
[04:59] <emma> MrPickle: This is in network settings?

[05:00] <Paddy_EIRE> emma from club-ubuntu?
[05:00] <dev_n00b> Can anyone assist me with a raid 0 install on a Netcell Raid card?

[05:00] <Ashex> !flash > me
[05:00] <MrPickle> info*
[05:01] <Paddy_EIRE> emma: ha.. I thought you where anti official ubuntu channels.. I guess that did not last :P
[05:01] <MrPickle> bitwraith, all i see when i do dmesg |less - is a bunch of ACPI and memory zones
[05:01] <wols> MrPickle: scroll down and you will see more
[05:01] <emma> MrPickle, IndyGunFreak ahh I had it on something called, 'roming mode' and it wasn't giving any options. I took it off of that (whatever that means) and it gave me options.
[05:02] <ifchaos_> now my desktop effect compiz is enable,  when i was restart my comp desktop effect, back to disable..?? what's wrong.?
[05:02] <ChokingHazard> Hi I'm having trouble with a Yamaha DS1 less /proc/asound/modules shows 0 snd_ymfpci but alsamixer says no such device. what am I missing?
[05:02] <IndyGunFreak> emma: well, mine is set to roaming mode... but hopefully that fixes your prob.
[05:02] <Paddy_EIRE> ifchaos that makes no sense
[05:02] <IndyGunFreak> emma: just set up your ESSID and your WPA Key..
[05:02] <emma> Paddy_EIRE: that's an unfair thing to say and offtopic for this channel as well.
[05:02] <Paddy_EIRE> emma: :P
[05:02] <Paddy_EIRE> truth hurts
[05:02] <emma> Paddy_EIRE: The fact you are completely wrong seems not to matter to you.
[05:03] <emma> Paddy_EIRE: Not only am I not anti official ubuntu channels but I have myself helped in official Ubuntu channels. So please flame elsewhere.
[05:03] <Paddy_EIRE> emma: ok nm.. although you went into a rant for quite a while on club a while back about how you will never bother with them again,
[05:03] <Paddy_EIRE> must be imagining things
[05:03] <emma> Paddy_EIRE: You are a liar.
[05:03] <Flannel> Paddy_EIRE, emma, please take it elsewhere.
[05:04] <emma> Flannel: Yes please make him take it elsewhere.
[05:04] <emma> I tried to tell him that already.
[05:04] <ChokingHazard> what alsamixer says no such device does it mean alsa needs to be fixed? but how?
[05:04] <ifchaos_> now my desktop effect compiz is enable,  when i was restart my comp desktop effect, back to disable..?? how to make olways enable my desktop effect..
[05:04] <Flannel> ifchaos_: What version of Ubuntu are you running?
[05:04] <wols> ifchaos_: is 3D acceleration always working?
[05:04] <Kira> Wasn't there a command that displays version information about the linux installation, and which is supposed to be available on a linux distro as long as the distro is compliant to some standard; was it LBS or something like that? I forget.

[05:07] <dev_n00b> wols : y?
[05:07] <Sethamundo> Is there any real difference than running Ubuntu 8.04 and installing KDE via synaptic, and installing it via reformat with Kubuntu?
[05:07] <wols> sun01tech: yes. depends on the program you used to encrypt it
[05:08] <wols> dev_n00b: speak english
[05:08] <bazhang> Sethamundo, just disk space used
[05:08] <infinitycircuit> is there a way to list all available packages from a specific repo /etc/apt/sources.list?

[05:09] <bazhang> Sethamundo, try the livecd first

[05:10] <Sethamundo> I have, and I like it a lot.. I'm just speaking of completing the transition

[05:10] <sun01tech> wols: i don't know. I thought I would just say seahorse.
[05:10] <wols> sun01tech: and seahorse uses what algorithm?
[05:10] <Flannel> sun01tech: The windows user would need GPG, theres a few windows implementation of GPG, try GPG4win
[05:10] <bazhang> Sethamundo, if you dont mind mixing the gnome and kde apps you can install the kde alongside gnome; really up to you
[05:10] <dev_n00b> I want to install Ubuntu 8.04 and am simply worried about borking my windows install on my RAID 0 array

[05:15] <hwilde> kaiwen, sudo mount 192.168.1.42:/home/music /home/poningru/music
[05:15] <wols> cellofellow: have you loaded both needed snd modules?
[05:15] <hwilde> cellofellow, car /proc/asound/cards
[05:15] <kaiwen> ok tha tmakes sense
[05:15] <kaiwen> let me try
[05:15] <vbman11> wols: I see what you mean, this is what I got "freedos.img: Qemu Image, Format: Qcow , Version: 2"
[05:16] <hwilde> cellofellow, cat /proc/asound/cards
[05:16] <riegersn> amarok is no longer showing my file information correctly. where is the song db so i can restart from scratch?
[05:16] <hwilde> cellofellow, cat /proc/asound/cards  it will show you like 0 and 1  then   asoundconf set-default-card 1
[05:16] <cellofellow> hwilde: its not in there
[05:16] <Reformer81> Is there any way to create a screen cast recording beginning at the login screen?
[05:16] <drgonzo00000> where is my samba config located
[05:16] <wols> vbman11: you can't mount that directly. somewhere on some offset inside of it, there is a FAT bootsetcr. you need to give that offset to mount. man mount
[05:16] <MrPickle> does no one here have the ability to help me?
[05:16] <cellofellow> hwilde: I don't want to set it as default card, just use it in Audacity.
[05:16] <vbman11> man mount
[05:16] <vbman11> sorry
[05:16] <cellofellow> hwilde: It's like the system isn't even seeing the asoundrc file
[05:17] <bobertdos> drgonzo00000: /etc/samba/smb.conf
[05:17] <hwilde> Reformer81, you would have to run a vmware server and started recording in another vm, then bring up the ubuntu login
[05:17] <vbman11> I ment to type that in xterm
[05:17] <hwilde> cellofellow, so you don't think you need to set it as the default sound card for it to work ?
[05:17] <Reformer81> hwilde: Hmm... that's doesn't really help for what I need :)  But okay.  I thought maybe there was some kind of command-line program that I could run from a virtual terminal and then switch back to X...
[05:17] <riegersn> Anyone know where amarok stores the song collection database?
[05:17] <cellofellow> hwilde: nope, I can access my non-default USB mics individually from Audacity just fine. I just want to access both at once.
[05:18] <hwilde> Reformer81, obvious security flaw :p
[05:18] <Reformer81> hwilde: Heh... good point.
[05:18]  * cellofellow wishes Audacity supported PulseAudio and pulse actually worked with mics at all.
[05:18] <Reformer81> Never thought of that... how sneaky lol
[05:18] <witchlight> riegersn, should be here somewhere  /home/your_user/.kde/share/apps/amarok
[05:18] <leachim6_> hey
[05:19] <criloal> hi, I have problems for use VirtualBox in Ubunto, some body can help me ?
[05:19] <hwilde> cellofellow, you did google this right   http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=749537     [SOLVED] Ubuntu 8.04 pulse audio - microphone - skype - audacity
[05:19] <cellofellow> ok, looking
[05:19] <hwilde> !virtualbox | criloal
[05:19] <Reformer81> criloal: It would be more beneficial to you if you described the problem :)
[05:19] <leachim6_> does anyone here have an ideapad
[05:19] <cellofellow> Can PulseAudio do simultaneous input like it can do simultaneous output?
[05:19] <wols> leachim6_: it'S going on sale in october...
[05:19] <leachim6_> wols, ohh yeah
[05:19] <lllsxh> ubuntu dont menage correctly the integrated video adapter on my mb. if i use 800x600x60 its possible to see normally, if i set 1024x768x60 its impossible to watch the monitor. i downloaded the drivers from the official intel site (http://tinyurl.com/64vqfk) but there are not info about the installation. have you never integrated external drivers? if yes, pls can you help me? thanx
[05:20] <leachim6_> I just bought one ... let's lower the price NOW
[05:20] <criloal> ok, look,  the only problem is when i  use VirtualBox  in my user, not Root
[05:20] <criloal> for example if i put VirtualBox in a terminal
[05:20] <criloal> I have this message
[05:20] <cellofellow> hwilde: that was totally unhelpful
[05:20] <criloal> Could not create the default settings file '/home/criloal/.VirtualBox/VirtualBox.xml' (VERR_ACCESS_DENIED).
[05:20] <criloal>  
[05:20] <wols> lllsxh: ask intel. their software
[05:21] <cellofellow> hwilde: I let Skype directly access my USB headset and can leave pulse on, and use pasuspender with audacity.
[05:21] <wols> info xserver-xorg-video-sis
[05:21] <wols> !info xserver-xorg-video-sis
[05:21] <bobertdos> riegersn: Using which database type?
[05:21] <wols> lllsxh: note how the intel driver site has a lower version number (0.9.1) than the ubuntu shipping version that is 0.9.3
[05:21] <cellofellow> hwilde: I just want to know why alsa appears to be ignoring my ~/.asoundrc file I added a multi device too.
[05:21] <CKyle22> I need some help with dhcp3-server can anyone help me?
[05:21] <pc06> jh
[05:22] <kaiwen> wols, i did that, it connects to my laptop, do you know where I go next/do to find it?
[05:22] <wols> !ask | CKyle22
[05:22] <wols> kaiwen: what did it tell you?
[05:22] <hwilde> cellofellow, why are you wasting so much time on this as a software issue when you can just get a mixer
[05:22] <kaiwen> wols, it asked for hte paswd i set up, it connects, now i dont' know where to go
[05:22] <bobertdos> CKyle22: I can try, I'm not a master at it, but I can try :)
[05:22] <wols> kaiwen: what did it tell you?
[05:22] <cellofellow> hwilde: they're USB soundcards that can't be mixed in hardware, that's why.
[05:22] <arsmute> hola
[05:22] <hwilde> cellofellow, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=704639   " record two microphones on audacity"
[05:22] <arsmute> alguien habla español?
[05:23] <wols> cellofellow: that's why software mixer exist
[05:23] <arsmute> alguien puede ayudarme?
[05:23] <Reformer81> They make USB soundcards?  Why on Earth would they do that?
[05:23] <tritium> !es | arsmute
[05:23] <wols> !es | arsmute
[05:23] <kaiwen> wols, it doesn't tell me anything , it shows printers and workgroups on my laptop .
[05:23] <hwilde> cellofellow, apt-get install jack
[05:23] <arsmute> tkx
[05:23] <cellofellow> wols: I know, but i can't get it working.
[05:23] <hwilde> !info jack
[05:23] <arsmute> thx

[05:23] <Reformer81> hwilde: That's a pretty poor description of Jack :)
[05:23] <cellofellow> hwilde: I wish with all my heart JACK could use two input soundcards, but it refuses to even try.
[05:23] <wols> !errors | CKyle22
[05:23] <kaiwen> wols, i rather not do that, it has personal stuff.
[05:23] <wols> kaiwen: suit yourself. goodbye
[05:24] <hwilde> cellofellow, so plug both mics into a mixer and one mixer into your soundcard ?
[05:24] <Reformer81> Uh oh... someone wants to keep their porn surfing habits private..
[05:24] <lllsxh> wols: thanx
[05:24] <CKyle22> It's not an error, it just says "fail" when it goes to start.
[05:24] <Blaqlight> lol
[05:24] <CKyle22> What info do you need?
[05:24] <kaiwen> wols, the connection between the two is fine, now the question is where do i go on my pc to find the folder
[05:24] <wols> CKyle22: check syslog
[05:24] <CKyle22> wols: how?
[05:24] <cellofellow> hwilde: the mics are attached to the soundcard. One is a USB headset the other is a USB studio-style mic.
[05:24] <wols> kaiwen: either do what I told you or please don't bother me anymore
[05:24] <cellofellow> hwilde: can't mix in hardware period.
[05:24] <hwilde> cellofellow, so use Jack to record two inputs like that thread says http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=704639
[05:24] <bastid_raZor> what log will i look at to see why gnome crashed?
[05:24] <kaiwen> wols, teh description is pretty clear. so there is no reason for a pastebin.
[05:25] <emma> MrPickle: do you have any suggestions for what to set in the manual config of the network settings?
[05:25] <CKyle22> I don't know how to check the syslog
[05:25] <hwilde> kaiwen, is it not on your desktop
[05:25] <wols> bastid_raZor: ~/.xsession-errors might tell. but if it crashes it's probably X. Xorg.0.log then
[05:25] <wols> kaiwen: what did I just tell you?
[05:25] <wols>  /ignore kaiwen
[05:25] <hwilde> cellofellow, you know most modern mixers will have multiple usb jacks right
[05:25] <cellofellow> hwilde: I'm not stupid. I know what I want to do and it does NOT involve a mixer OR jack.
[05:25] <vbman11> wols: I'm really close, this is what I have(got most of it from the internet) "sudo mount -o loop,offset=32256 -o uid=1000 /home/kevin/freedos.img /media/freedos", but I still get the "superblock" part of the error from above
[05:26] <riegersn> Any one know why the majority of my music collection doesn't have a length time anymore in amarok? rhythmbox shows the run time without issue
[05:26] <kaiwen> wow, ok...
[05:26] <wols> vbman11: then the oiffset is most likely wrong
[05:26] <Reformer81> cellofellow: Then do it lol
[05:26] <cellofellow> since when can a mixer mix usb mics?
[05:26] <hwilde> cellofellow, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=704639    Re: record two microphones on audacity     Jack should be able to combine inputs, too.
[05:26] <vbman11> wols: how do I get the offset
[05:26] <CKyle22> I would check the syslog but I dunno how wols.
[05:26] <hwilde> cellofellow, lol when is your mixer from 1984
[05:26] <wols> vbman11: tricky. use a hex viewer if you can spot a FAT bootsector
[05:26] <cellofellow> Reformer81: I just can't figure out how to "apply" the settings I put in the .asoundrc file. It doesn't seem to want to put the code into effect.
[05:27] <wols> CKyle22: /var/log/syslog.1.gz
[05:27] <wols> CKyle22: /var/log/syslog
[05:27] <vbman11> wols: easier way?
[05:27] <Reformer81> cellofellow: Have you attempted logging out and then back in?
[05:27] <cellofellow> Reformer81: no... I'll try that.
[05:27] <Reformer81> lol
[05:27] <wols> vbman11: not really :(
[05:27] <jimmygoon> So whats the package I need if I need gtk+-2.0, gconf stuff etc?
[05:27] <wols> cellofellow: is there a /etc/init.d/*alsa* ?
[05:27] <Reformer81> cellofellow: You may even need to restart X (Ctrl - Alt - Backspace).
[05:28] <CKyle22> its huge
[05:28] <CKyle22> wols
[05:28] <wols> Reformer81: neither will restart alsa
[05:28] <hwilde> vbman11, are you sure you have to specifiy that ofset like that
[05:28] <CKyle22> Should i use a pastebin?
[05:28] <cellofellow> wols: tried that
[05:28] <wols> CKyle22: I know. look near the end
[05:28] <wols> cellofellow: answer my question
[05:28] <CKyle22> wols: ok.
[05:28] <Reformer81> wols: It's worth a shot ...
[05:28] <vbman11> hwilde: Thats what I was told
[05:28] <vbman11> hwilde: I'll try it with out
[05:28] <cellofellow> wols: yes, I did `sudo /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart` and nothing changed.
[05:28] <kaiwen> hwilde i looked more closely at nfs, just what i was looking for ;)
[05:29] <kaiwen> hwilde thanks
[05:29] <wols> cellofellow: cbecked kern.log and syslog?
[05:29] <CKyle22> wols: ok let me put it in a pastebin really quick
[05:29] <kaiwen> !ask | wols
[05:29] <cellofellow> wols: what should I grep for?
[05:29]  * Reformer81 slaps kaiwen for being an idiot.
[05:29] <Reformer81> ...guess I hit him harder than I though ;P
[05:29] <jimmygoon> n one?
[05:29] <hwilde> CKyle22, pastebinit
[05:30] <wols> cellofellow: dunno if grep works. check for alsa messages
[05:30] <cellofellow> I'll just try loging out and in.
[05:30] <Reformer81> jimmygoon: Go to System -> Administration -> Synaptic and search for "libgtk"
[05:30] <wols> cellofellow: drivers for both usb soundcards are loaded? no errors?
[05:30] <vbman11> hwilde: It tells me I need to specify a file system type
[05:30] <Reformer81> jimmygoon: That will give you a good starting point :)
[05:30] <wols> cellofellow: unlikely that will do anything
[05:30] <cellofellow> wols: yes, both are working great
[05:30] <CKyle22> wols: http://pastebin.com/m21bbb73a
[05:30] <cellofellow> wols: ok
[05:31] <lkthomas> guys
[05:31] <pc06> k
[05:31] <wols> CKyle22: line 15 and 16
[05:31] <lkthomas> first question, does ubuntu support intel ICH9 ?
[05:31] <wols> lkthomas: yes
[05:31] <Reformer81> lkthomas: Yes.
[05:31] <lkthomas> second question, is it possible to config software RAID 0+1 ?
[05:32] <lkthomas> with mdadm ?
[05:32] <drgonzo00000> I've made sure to synchronize my smb.conf workgroup and my xp workgroup, but i am still unable to see the shares. Any suggestions?
[05:32] <CKyle22> wols: yeah i figured that. how can i add a subnet?
[05:32] <wols> lkthomas: yes. software raid
[05:32] <wols> CKyle22: don't know the dhcp3 config since I don't use it or care about it.
[05:32] <wols> CKyle22: read the docs. there are also example config files iirc
[05:32] <lkthomas> wols, so I need to create two set of RAID-0 device, then, create another for RAID-1 ?
[05:32] <balz> I'm trying to build a music jukebox that will access music on an SMB share.  Is there any software with a nice, polished interface that can do this?
[05:33] <wols> lkthomas: huh?
[05:33] <Reformer81> balz: I believe Amarok can handle that.
[05:33] <cellofellow> maybe I should restart, so the alsa modules get reloaded (there's too many to do it with modprobe, at least I think. they are all interdependant).
[05:33] <lkthomas> wols, any guide to tell me how to create 0_1 raid ?
[05:33] <lkthomas> 0+1 ?
[05:33] <wols> !raid
[05:33] <Reformer81> balz: In fact, I think that any application can access those files... they become part of the "native" file system.
[05:33] <bobertdos> CKyle22: Have you read dhcpd.conf? It has commented-out examples of a lot of different setups, including basic subnetting, I think.
[05:33] <jacob_> gkuityu
[05:33] <balz> reformer81:  Yeah that's not a bad option... but I was hoping for a fullscreen app.  Something with a mythtv-ish interface (in a very loose sense)
[05:33] <CKyle22> bobertdos: I dunno where it is.
[05:34] <whatwhat> what is the best c and c++ compiler for ubuntu?
[05:34] <wols> CKyle22: /etc
[05:34] <wols> whatwhat: there is only one. gcc
[05:34] <bastid_raZor> gnome keeps crashing every few minutes. this is my .xsession-errors :: http://pastebin.com/f3579a8b5
[05:34] <CKyle22> wols: yeah I checked, its not there.
[05:34] <balz> Reformer81:  also is it possible to get amarok to run full screen without any window borders?
[05:34] <Reformer81> balz: So more like a kiosk-feel to it?
[05:34] <ParaDoX34690> Can anyone familiar with GProFTPd tell me why I'm getting this message: " - Fatal: PassivePorts: max port must be allowable port number on line 10 of '/etc/proftpd/proftpd.conf'" when I try to activate my ftp server? I haven't modified anything to the passive ports, here are my values: PassivePorts 49150 65536.  Again, these are the default values (as far as I know).
[05:34] <balz> Reformer81:  exactly.  good word lol =)
[05:34] <wols> CKyle22: man locate
[05:34] <bobertdos> CKyle22: Yes, etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf, if I remember correctly
[05:35] <CKyle22> bobertdos: ahh
[05:35] <jimmygoon> Reformer81, it was actually a lousy configure message. I'd already gottten the required stuffs. thanks though!
[05:35] <whatwhat> I used synaptic package manager to install the GCC C++ and C compilers but do not see them in applications under programming..
[05:35] <Reformer81> balz: You know, I've been looking for an application that would let me do that for a long time now... no luck.
[05:35] <wols> whatwhat: gcc is a compiler, not a X program
[05:35] <lkthomas> wols, so, I create disk 1 and 2 -> md0 (raid0), disk 3 and disk 4 -> md1 (raid 0), then, md0 and md1 -> md2 (raid1) ?
[05:35] <wols> whatwhat: you want an IDE like anjuta, eclipse or kdevelop
[05:35] <Reformer81> balz: They go fullscreen (Amarok does NOT), but they aren't quite like a commercial jukebox.
[05:35] <wols> lkthomas: I don't do raid
[05:36] <alsaconf> function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
[05:36] <wols> lkthomas: cause it's a waste of good diskspace. especially raid 0+1
[05:36] <balz> Reformer81:  yeah i was kind of afraid to hear that.  I was also thinking of running songbird (only bc it looks good) and finding a way to hack it into windowless fullscreen
[05:36] <lkthomas> client wants it
[05:36] <lkthomas> no complain
[05:36] <CKyle22> bobertdos: its all commented out
[05:36] <whatwhat> im useing gnome so wchich one would you recommend, eclipse?
[05:36] <bobertdos> whatwhat: Yes, like wols said......So therefore, you can only use GCC and g++ (at least by themselves) form the terminal.
[05:36] <balz> if that's even possible
[05:36] <wols> whatwhat: you want to install build-essnetial, not gcc btw
[05:37] <Reformer81> balz: I know there are popular players that will go fullscreen, I just can't remember which ones :).  I've been looking for a kiosk-mode player that will let users adds songs to a queue, but not delete, skip, etc...
[05:37] <whatwhat> i allready installed it
[05:37] <wols> whatwhat: build-essential rather
[05:37] <whatwhat> but dont see where to run it, i am new to ubuntu
[05:37] <bobertdos> CKyle22: Yeah, so try to find a subnetting example, adjust it, and then uncomment it.
[05:37] <wols> whatwhat: only in a terminal
[05:37] <Reformer81> whatwhat: What are you trying to install that needs gcc?
[05:37] <whatwhat> so im terminal type gcc?
[05:37] <balz> Reformer81:  I guess i'll just look for one of those players.  It's for my house anyway so i guess i can always open a can of whoopass on someone who deletes my song
[05:37] <whatwhat> i want to create my own c programs the compile them
[05:37] <CKyle22> ok
[05:37] <wols> whatwhat: for example. but you are very confused about programming it seems. get a good book first to learn
[05:38] <wols> whatwhat: I told you to get an IDE
[05:38] <Reformer81> whatwhat: Then I highly suggest you do some research on programming first.
[05:38] <bobertdos> whatwhat: gcc or g++ <your source file>
[05:38] <whatwhat> i do have a book, but the disc it comes with is only for windows
[05:38] <Reformer81> whatwhat: And follow wols' advice... get a decent IDE that will help you out.
[05:38] <drgonzo00000> Can someone help me setup my file sharing between my xp desktop and my linux laptop (dual boots into Vista)? I've tried going to: Places; Network; I'm able to go so far as to see my workgroup, but I cannot see any files that are shared by xp desktop. I've configured my smb.conf workgroup to match my xp workgroup. Any suggestions?
[05:38] <whatwhat> i need a c compiler for ubuntu that is gui
[05:38] <Reformer81> whatwhat: yOu won't find one
[05:38] <wols> drgonzo00000: smbclient -L <ip of xp>
[05:39] <gilda> whatwhat: why do you need a gui one ?
[05:39] <alsaconf> I have a Yamaha DS1 works for totem-audiopreview and nothing else, in sound preferences autodetect but alsamixer tells me alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device what does it mean?
[05:39] <Reformer81> whatwhat: Are you thinking of something like VisualBasic?  Or are you planning on actually writing all the code from scratch?
[05:39] <wols> whatwhat: that does not exist. a compiler is a program that is never a gui. gui is where you can write/edit a program and then call the compiler
[05:39] <amenado> !info Kermit

[05:40] <whatwhat> i see.. what is an .exe in linux terms a bin file?
[05:41] <Reformer81> whatwhat: If you want to develope software for Linux, you will most definitely want to become more familiar with Linux in general first.  Otherwise, you're going to have a VERY difficult time programming for Linux, let alone making your apps cross-platform.
[05:41] <wols> drgonzo00000: and using samba over the internet is criminally insecure
[05:41] <ParaDoX34690> whatwhat: it's any file... any file can be made executable...
[05:41] <wols> whatwhat: no. an executable
[05:41] <Reformer81> whatwhat: In linux, an .exe file is a WINDOWS file :)
[05:41] <php6th> HElp!!! samba problems, windows cant access ubuntu
[05:41] <bobertdos> CKyle22: A subnetting example would have a subnet mask different than 255.255.255.0 and where the IP ranges would probably be split up into two or more groupings. If you need to brush up on how subnetting in and of itself works first, I suggest you go Googling ;)
[05:41] <whatwhat> what would the equivilant in linux be?
[05:41] <wols> php6th: what is the ubuntu IP?
[05:42] <php6th> wols: 192.168.1.2
[05:42] <Reformer81> whatwhat: There are no set file extensions that tell linux a file is executable.  Any file can be executable.
[05:42] <alsaconf> hwilde: i might have done that wrong, what command shows me the right name for the device to enter?
[05:42] <wols> whatwhat: an ELF type binary with the executable bit set
[05:42] <ParaDoX34690> php6th: are your window machines for the new name of the linux box?
[05:42] <wols> php6th: in windows explorer do \\192.168.1.2
[05:42] <bullgard4> What Freenode channel will deal with LAN networking?
[05:42] <wols> bullgard4: #networking for example
[05:42] <Gnea> php6th: what did you use to configure samba with?
[05:42] <shear> try #networking perhaps
[05:42] <CKyle22> bobertdos: I wish there was an easier way, all I wanna do is share a connection with my XBOX360 via a second nic (eth1) and a crossover cable
[05:42] <hwilde> alsaconf, cat /proc/asound/cards
[05:42] <hwilde> alsaconf, asoundconf set-default-card 0/1
[05:42] <wols> CKyle22: sure. dnsmasq
[05:42] <wols> CKyle22: and ipmasq
[05:43] <greg__> hello. How can I set the screen resolution in Ubuntu, I have updated video card, installed drivers but can only get 640x480. Thanks
[05:43] <alsaconf> hwilde: you mean either 0 or 1?
[05:43] <wols> CKyle22: but you will need to edit /etc/dnsmasq.conf manually as well to enable its dhcp server
[05:43] <alsaconf> instead of the device name?
[05:43] <bullgard4> wols, shear: Thank you.
[05:43] <ParaDoX34690> greg__: what kind of card?
[05:43] <bobertdos> CKyle22: You don't have a router?
[05:43] <php6th> Help I did that \\192.168.1.2  but doest not accept my credentials, i just did apt-get install samba
[05:43] <Gnea> greg__: system->preferences->screen resolution
[05:43] <CKyle22> wols: Thats fine, are there any links?
[05:43] <greg__> ATI Radeon HD 2400 Pro
[05:43] <CKyle22> bobertdos: No i dont :( unfortunatley
[05:43] <Gnea> php6th: you should install and use swat, then try again.
[05:43] <Gnea> !swat | php6th
[05:43] <wols> php6th: you need to edit /etc/samba/smb.conf it won#t just work "Out of the box"
[05:43] <greg__> Tried that already!!
[05:44] <charleston> yes I have a issue with my screen saver
[05:44] <wols> !fglrx | greg__
[05:44] <drgonzo00000> wols: it says http://pastebin.ca/1165610
[05:44] <greg__> Whats fgrlx??
[05:44] <Gnea> php6th: installing samba-doc would be very beneficial as well
[05:44] <ParaDoX34690> Greg__: if you go to system > administration > hardware drivers, do you have a special driver in there?
[05:44] <wols> greg__: why a domain?
[05:45] <wols> greg__: fglrx is the driver for your videocard
[05:45] <gilda> greg__: fglrx is the proprietary ati driver set for ati based cards
[05:45] <Gnea> greg__: that's what the url that ubottu told you is for.
[05:45] <bobertdos> CKyle22: Well, subnetting is not actually what you want to do. Why are you wanting to use a crossover? I don't think that works either.
[05:45] <baldur> Anyone here that could give me some help with a proplem playing mp3's on my ubuntu ?
[05:45] <goodbyegravity> Isn'tthere a separate HD driver?
[05:45] <wols> bobertdos: of course it works
[05:45] <ParaDoX34690> baldur: we can try (maybe) :)
[05:45] <Gnea> !anyone | baldur
[05:45] <CKyle22> bobert: it worked in windows with ICS enabled
[05:45] <SAM_theman> hello guys
[05:45] <greg__> I have installed the latest ATI Restricted driver from ATI
[05:45] <baldur> i'll try that
[05:45] <alsaconf> hwilde: OK I've done this already with same results, what else can be wrong?
[05:46] <SAM_theman> My dad is having a problem
[05:46] <CKyle22> and apt-get cant find ipmasq.
[05:46] <Gnea> SAM_theman: give him a beer
[05:46] <SAM_theman> He can't log into ubuntu
[05:46] <SAM_theman> He needs to pay BILLS
[05:46] <gaelfx> has anyone else had problems opening scim-setup, whenever I do it segfaults
[05:46] <Gnea> SAM_theman: j/k.
[05:46] <wols> drgonzo00000: use a workgroup and configure both XP and ubuntu to use the same workgroup. NOT domains
[05:46] <SAM_theman> anyway it happened to him twice today
[05:46] <baldur> when i try to play an mp3 on my comp it doesnt make any sound it plays but no sound
[05:46] <gilda> SAM_theman: log in as root and reset his passwd ?
[05:46] <SAM_theman> on 8.04.1
[05:46] <Gnea> SAM_theman: can you login?
[05:46] <SAM_theman> and on 7.10
[05:46] <DNihilist> excuse me, I'm having trouble running this install in terminal http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/ColorizeMe+Scripts?content=82706
[05:46] <ParaDoX34690> baldur: what application are you using?
[05:46] <bobertdos> wols: Hmm, okay, I just figured a straight-through would be the only cable-type that would accomplish that.
[05:47] <SAM_theman> yes then it hangs on a orange screen'
[05:47] <baldur> alltho i can play sound on myspace and stuff
[05:47] <baldur> ryhtm box
[05:47] <wols> bobertdos: a straight patch cable between a PC and Xbox won't work at all
[05:47] <Gnea> SAM_theman: hangs? for how long?
[05:47] <SAM_theman> eternity
[05:47] <bastid_raZor> http://pastebin.com/f3579a8b5  :: are the errors i get after a crash.
[05:47] <ParaDoX34690> baldur: have you considered trying amarok?
[05:47] <SAM_theman> He's rebooting again
[05:47] <wols> !pm | drgonzo00000
[05:47] <greg__> Hardware drivers says ATI driver in use (ticked)
[05:48] <wols> greg__: glxinfo |grep direct
[05:48] <Gnea> SAM_theman: that's not a real figure.
[05:48] <baldur> ParaDoX34690, no i've all so tried playin it with VLC
[05:48] <SAM_theman> is there a repo probelm
[05:48] <SAM_theman> what you mean
[05:48] <schmick> SAM_theman: if he needs to solve this FAST, execute the Live CD.. pay the bills.. then it'll be easier to work out with enough time.
[05:48] <Gnea> SAM_theman: you're diverting off into several directions at once. please stick to one problem at a time.
[05:48] <bobertdos> wols: Okay, fair enough. I know a lot about networking in general, but not about working with game consoles, so I'm not the best person to handle this, to be honest :p
[05:48] <greg__> direct rendering: Yes
[05:49] <drgonzo00000> wols: i set both workgroups to MSHOME
[05:49] <ParaDoX34690> baldur: give it a shot (amarok, that is). I just installed it yesterday and I like it bunches compared to rhythmbox. Keep VLC, it's pretty versitle for video files...
[05:49] <gaelfx> hey, I need help figuring out what's wrong with scim-setup, can anyone help me?
[05:49] <alsaconf> alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
[05:49] <wols> greg__: then check your Xorg.0.log to see why it only does 640x480
[05:49] <CKyle22> bobertdos: I would assume its similar to a regular computer.
[05:49] <wols> !ask | gaelfx
[05:49] <gaelfx> wols: already asked it, and that's about as descriptive as I can get
[05:49] <Gnea> SAM_theman: see if you can login via ctrl-alt-f1
[05:50] <SAM_theman> He's able to boot up ito ubuntu. But when he logs in it hange. Yes we did that earlier, no luck at all.
[05:50] <ParaDoX34690> !stupid | paradox34690
[05:50] <ParaDoX34690> hehehe
[05:50] <SAM_theman> When he reboots, a whole list of errors come up
[05:50] <KalEl> need a favor... could someone please confirm that the my ssh server is visible beyond the router? can you see the login promt if you type "ssh hirak99.homeip.net"?
[05:50] <wols> gaelfx: ask about a specific problem. what you did, what results you expected, what errors you get instead, that kind of thing. "can anyone help with X" is ALWAYS a stupid question
[05:50] <Gnea> SAM_theman: such as?
[05:50] <bullgard4> How can I determine the path of my kernel source directory?
[05:50] <SAM_theman> Failures
[05:50] <SAM_theman> Can't remeber
[05:51] <bobertdos> CKyle22: Well yes, I'd assume so too, which is why I reiterate that getting a router would make this much easier.
[05:51] <gaelfx> SCIM-SETUP segfaulots on startup
[05:51] <Gnea> SAM_theman: what about the livecd? can you boot that up?
[05:51] <wols> KalEl: it works
[05:51] <gaelfx> *segfault
[05:51] <SAM_theman> Yes
[05:51] <baldur> ParaDoX34690,  i'll try it but i dont think thats the proplem becuz i'm not abel to get any sound from my computer exept throuhg eve-online or firefox
[05:51] <SAM_theman> He has backup linux distro's
[05:51] <KalEl> wols, thanks a lot... somehow can't see it from office at all
[05:51] <ParaDoX34690> KalEl: Yes, it works
[05:51] <SAM_theman> he's currently on Fedora
[05:51] <baldur> ParaDoX34690, and VLC plays movies but without sound
[05:51] <Gnea> SAM_theman: then do it so he can pay the farking bills :)
[05:51] <wols> bullgard4: did you install the ubuntu kernel sources?
[05:51] <wols> bullgard4: and what do you need the source for?
[05:51] <CKyle22> bobertdos: It probably would. I'm trying this now http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=91370
[05:52] <SAM_theman> He' doing that now but he still wants to know what is the "facking" problem
[05:52] <KalEl> ParaDoX34690, thanks
[05:52] <bullgard4> wols: Yes, I did install the kernel sources.
[05:52] <wols> SAM_theman: sounds like borken gnome
[05:52] <SAM_theman> lol I meant r
[05:52] <Gnea> SAM_theman: then perhaps HE should be the one asking.
[05:52] <wols> bullgard4: 2nd question too: why do you need the sources?
[05:52] <ParaDoX34690> baldur: it sounds then like it's something in your sound preferences then, have you taken a look there yet?
[05:52] <SAM_theman> How? He installs it. Successfull then it brakes after a few major updates.
[05:52] <Gnea> SAM_theman: unless you can get him to pastebin the list of the failures
[05:52] <wols> Gnea: that would be sensible. can't have thatr
[05:52] <Reformer81> Simple question for ya:  How would I go about having my desktop icons aligned across the top of my screen (horizontally)?
[05:53] <Gnea> wols: oh yes, you're right.
[05:53] <Blaqlight> Im trying to do a backup of my /home directory and it tells me tar can't stat the .gvfs file. how do I stop from trying to back that up too?
[05:53] <greg__> How do I find Xorg.0.log and what do I do with it?
[05:53] <Gnea> SAM_theman: have he considered throwing the computer out of the window?
[05:53] <bastid_raZor> SAM_theman; i would almost bet he is having the same issues i am.. have him look at ~/.xsession-errors and compare them to this :: http://pastebin.com/f3579a8b5
[05:53] <wols> greg__: /var/log. you pastebin it
[05:53] <lllsxh> wols: i solved using vesa driver. on pc-bsd has worked fine. now i have to try with linux
[05:53] <infinitycircuit> greg__, /var/log/Xorg.0.log. look for things that say (EE) or (WW)
[05:53] <charleston> I have a problem. No matter what i set my screensaver to it goes blank no matter what i set it to.
[05:53]  * nickrud never knows whether to laugh or scream at wols' asides
[05:53] <baldur> ParaDoX34690, yes but i dont know what to look for
[05:53] <wols> lllsxh: vesa will pretty much always works. but as a solution it sucks
[05:53] <bullgard4> wols: The answer to the question which I have put is independent of your question: " why do you need the sources?"
[05:53] <wols> bullgard4: goodbye
[05:54] <Blaqlight> (EE) = error (WW) == warning
[05:54] <baldur> ParaDoX34690,  very new to ubuntu... but good with computers :)
[05:54] <bep> charleston: your sure its a blank screensaver and not powersaving settings turning the screen off?
[05:54] <wols> bullgard4: fyi, chances are sources won't help you. but have fun finding that out yourself
[05:54] <CKyle22> Now... how to test if it worked.
[05:54] <charleston> yes
[05:54] <wols> bullgard4: as for how to find them on disk: dpkg -L
[05:54] <Gnea> nickrud: :)
[05:54] <charleston> i turned the power saver off
[05:54] <nickrud> Gnea lean more towards screaming mostly ;)
[05:55] <wols> nickrud: most times ops just ban me :P
[05:55] <wols> nickrud: so I think your approach could be an improvement. dunno for whom tho
[05:55] <gaelfx> can anyone help me figure out why scim-setup segfaults on startup?
[05:55] <alsaconf> amixer: Mixer attach default error: No such device
[05:55] <Gnea> nickrud: now you know what i like to do when irrationality sets in ;)
[05:55] <nickrud> wols then consider yourself banned for a few seconds, take a break :)
[05:55] <DNihilist> forgive me to asking this again but I cant seem to understand why this wont install in the terminal http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/ColorizeMe+Scripts?content=82706
[05:56] <ParaDoX34690> baldur: if you open your sound preferences, under "music and movies", what's your playback set to?
[05:56] <charleston> dose it have anything to do with X10
[05:56] <baldur> ParaDoX34690, auto detect
[05:56] <qoncept> when will pidgin update through ubuntu's update manager?
[05:56] <Gnea> DNihilist: how are you trying to install it?
[05:56] <greg__> /var/log. is empty
[05:56] <wols> greg__: not possible
[05:56] <SAM_theman> He's going to install 8.04.1 again.
[05:57] <wols> greg__: /var/log/   not /var/log.
[05:57] <gaelfx> qoncept: i don't know, but if you find out how to find that info, please tell me too!
[05:57] <SAM_theman> He wants to try it over.
[05:57] <MrPickle> halp!! my rs.local file wont boot up and I have no ability to mount my ubuntu CD because it was burned in an NTFS file system!!!!
[05:57] <greg__> Sorry it has subfolders but all empty
[05:57] <DNihilist> using the same commands suggested  cd Desktop/82706-ColorizeMe-0.6/clearlooks-style/
[05:57] <wols> MrPickle: that makes no sense
[05:57] <bastid_raZor> SAM_theman; did he look at .xsession-errors ? that will really help in determining what is going wrong.
[05:57] <wols> MrPickle: it's rc.local btw
[05:57] <Gnea> MrPickle: vista?
[05:57] <SAM_theman> we can't
[05:57] <greg__> Ok Where do I get that?
[05:57] <SAM_theman> it typically locks us out
[05:57] <wols> greg__: are you on the livecd or such?
[05:58] <oiopuj> anyone give me a quick hand with asterisk?
[05:58] <killedbyants> hi, I'm trying to get gsynaptic to work for adjusting my trackpad. I've added the SHMC command, but it's still not working. does anyone think they can help?
[05:58] <greg__> No installed on PC
[05:58] <wols> greg__: then there are files
[05:58] <bastid_raZor> SAM_theman; boot the computer but don't login then ctrl+alt+f1 then look at .xsession-errors
[05:58] <goodbyegravity> killedbyants: What kind of touchpad do you have?
[05:58] <Gnea> !anyone | oiopuj
[05:58] <killedbyants> oh, hey, i remember you gravity
[05:58] <goodbyegravity> killedbyants: Only Synaptic drives are supposed by the synaptic driver; there is another major manufacturer.
[05:58] <goodbyegravity> :)
[05:58] <greg__> Ok So where do I find /var/log/
[05:58] <goodbyegravity> Synaptic devices*
[05:59] <alsaconf> alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
[05:59] <SAM_theman> From that point it freezes
[05:59] <oiopuj> Gnea  huh?  :)
[05:59] <alsaconf> alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
[05:59] <alsaconf> alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such device
[05:59] <FloodBot1> alsaconf: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:59] <wols> greg__: the path is /var/log...
[05:59] <bastid_raZor> SAM_theman; you could install pastebinit then run the command pastebinit .xsession-errors and post the link here
[05:59] <killedbyants> i'm not really sure what type it is. it's an eeepc though, and on all the eeepc forums, they say to use it
[05:59] <nickrud> greg__    ls /var/log , if this is a running linux system there will be stuff there.
[05:59] <gaelfx> I'm having severe issues with scim-setup, as in I can't run it at all, any ideas?
[05:59] <Gnea> !ask | oiopuj
[05:59] <DNihilist> Gnea: it just doesn't like that command for some reason
[05:59] <leo_away> hello ubunteros
[05:59] <greg__> If I type that into terminal it just tells me its a directory
[05:59] <killedbyants> so it should work i think
[05:59] <goodbyegravity> killedbyants: Oh, I dunno then.
[05:59] <wols> greg__: of course it is
[05:59] <MrPickle> wols, I burned the disc in winxp and when i try to mount it, I get an error msg saying that the file system is unsupported
[05:59] <wols> greg__: ls -al /var//log  pastebin the command you type and its full output
[06:00] <gilda> greg__: you have to cd /var/log
[06:00] <oiopuj> Gnea  not sure what you are trying to tell me
[06:00] <nickrud> greg__  copy and paste this into a terminal:   ls /var/log -l
[06:00] <FreddyGonzo> DNihilist: -If by chance the scripts do not run, you may have to right click them, and select 'run as executable' in its properties.
[06:00] <nickrud> greg__ do wols, it's more complete
[06:00] <Gnea> oiopuj: if you can't read what ubottu is saying...
[06:00] <wols> MrPickle: what cd is this? how did you burn it? iso9660 or udf?
[06:00] <gilda> greg__: ya just do wols command
[06:00] <goodbyegravity> Hooray for UDF </sigh>.
[06:00] <Gnea> DNihilist: have you tried installing the gnome-color-chooser package?
[06:00] <crdlb> goodbyegravity: the synaptics driver support Alps too
[06:00] <MrPickle> wols, this is the initial Ubuntu install cd and I burned it after unpacking it
[06:00] <baldur> para
[06:00] <goodbyegravity> crdlb: Is there another?  I thought I'd read that it didn't support one.
[06:01] <wols> MrPickle: did you burn it as image? as iso?
[06:01] <goodbyegravity> crdlb: But Alps sounds familiar.  I may just be pulling that out of nowhere.
[06:01] <Gnea> oiopuj: you might want to try #asterisk
[06:01] <MrPickle> wols, it was an image when i dl'd it, it was burned as an unpacked collection of files
[06:01] <wols> MrPickle: that was wrong. do it again
[06:01] <greg__> Ok got a pile of stuff. What now?
[06:01] <oiopuj> Gnea I get an error You need to be identified to join that channel  when I try and join
[06:01] <oiopuj> any ideas there>?
[06:01] <MrPickle> wols, it worked for the first install i did
[06:01] <bobertdos> CKyle22: Hey, did you see the tip about Firestarter at the bottom there? Maybe that'll work for you.
[06:02] <nickrud> greg__ that's the contents of the directory /var/log
[06:02] <goodbyegravity> oiopuj: You need to register your nickname with NickServ.
[06:02] <maddash> yay
[06:02] <oiopuj> thx
[06:02] <goodbyegravity> oiopuj: /msg NickServ !help
[06:02] <Gnea> oiopuj: yes, /msg nickserv help
[06:02] <gaelfx> MrPickle: you need to burn the CD directly from the .iso, iso is the "image" of the cd that needs to be burned, no need to unpack
[06:02] <goodbyegravity> Or help.  :)
[06:02] <Gnea> oiopuj: you need to register and identify
[06:02] <greg__> Yes, thank you.
[06:02] <wols> MrPickle: alternatively, look what devicefile your CDROM device is and do "file -s <device file>"
[06:02] <cplx> hi can someone assist me on setting up sendmail with exchange.. all i want to do is set it up so I can go - 'mailx -s bb@domani.com' and recieve a message via my exchange server (internally)
[06:02] <Gnea> oiopuj: and.. good luck :)
[06:02] <nickrud> greg__ is that what you were looking for? Or something else? (No snark, just want to be sure)
[06:02] <wols> cplx: why sendmail?
[06:03] <blistov> My Xsession.d broke or something, and now when i login with gdm, gnome-session fails to start.
[06:03] <cplx> wols; mailx then
[06:03] <blistov> i can start it manually howeve.r
[06:03] <cplx> whatever
[06:03] <blistov> where is this configured?
[06:03] <wols> nickrud: I wanted a Xorg logfile since he can only run 640 even when fglrx seems to be laded
[06:03] <cplx> wols; its just to tell me when a backup job is done..
[06:03] <DNihilist> Gnea, I'm going to try that first thank you
[06:03] <wols> cplx: mailx is no MTA
[06:03] <nickrud> wols ah, ok. That's what I get for coming in late, only half the story :)
[06:03] <hsteve> how do i get sound on my computer?
[06:03] <cplx> wols; so i don't need to configure anything.. just do mailx -s recipient ?
[06:04] <greg__> Im trying to fid a way of changing the screen resolution from 640x480 to something useable
[06:04] <Gnea> DNihilist: i'm not entirely sure if it's the same thing or not, but it has a 99% greater probability of actually installing and working right :)
[06:04] <MrPickle> ok i got xserver to run again; how can i get a terminal open IN X-SERVER without the use of a mouse?
[06:04] <wols> cplx: you will need to configure your MTA. but using sendmail will be worthy of a darwin award
[06:04] <leo_away> hsteve: we will probably need more information to answer that
[06:04] <wols> cplx: use postfix or exim
[06:04] <nickrud> MrPickle alt-f2 , type  gnome-terminal (assuming gnome is running)
[06:04] <wols> MrPickle: alt+f2
[06:05] <cplx> wols; its just for sending me an email when a job is done.. whats the easiest and most efficient? exim or postfix?
[06:05] <cplx> wols; i don't need a full fledged MTA
[06:05] <wols> cplx: about the same. personal preference
[06:05] <hsteve> leo_away: I have ubuntu but i  don't get any sound
[06:05] <wols> cplx: dunno if the not so full fledged ones can work together with exchange
[06:05] <cplx> wols; ok say I go with postfix, could you assist me on setting it up to point to my exchange box?
[06:05] <leo_away> hsteve: I kinda figured you were using ubuntu and that you didn't get sound
[06:05] <hsteve> :)
[06:05] <leo_away> hsteve: sound card brand might be a good start
[06:06] <Gnea> !sound | hsteve
[06:06] <hsteve> i mean k
[06:06] <leo_away> hsteve: then maybe the model
[06:06] <wols> cplx: just send the mail to the exchange FQDN
[06:06] <cplx> wols: General type of mail configuration:
[06:06] <hsteve> i have mac
[06:06] <wols> hsteve: lspci -nn
[06:06] <leo_away> hsteve: after you get those check the links Gnea provided you with
[06:06] <cplx> wols: Internet Site, Local only ?
[06:06] <cplx> Internet Site?
[06:06] <wols> inet site
[06:06] <cplx> ok
[06:06] <error404notfound> I had a 7.10 machine, I ran apt-get upgrade and now xserver is broken... plus now when I do apt-get upgrade, it says 201 packages kept back, also when I do dist-upgrade, still some packages are kept back
[06:07] <cplx> done + installed
[06:07] <cplx> where is the Exchange server set?
[06:07] <cplx> for relay
[06:07] <nickrud> error404notfound try sudo apt-get -f install , then do another dist-upgrade
[06:07] <cplx> or whatever
[06:07] <wols> error404notfound: what videocard and what driver before?
[06:07] <leo_away> hsteve: lspci will most likely tell you which one is your soundcard
[06:07] <Gnea> error404notfound: were you trying to upgrade to 8.04.1?
[06:07] <wols> cplx: nowhere. you simply send the mail to the exchange user@domain
[06:07] <Gnea> !enter | cplx
[06:08] <cplx> wols; so leave the postfix config, then all i need to do is mailx -s blahblah whatever?
[06:08] <eblume> I'm setting up an HP-ATI/AMD laptop for the first time and I'm having a strange audio error. The audio works just fine, but it doesn't respond to volume control. Whether I use the keyboard controls or the gnome applet, the volume stays maxxed.
[06:08] <eblume> Does anyone know what that might be?
[06:08] <dabbu> do i need a antivirus for my ubuntu
[06:08] <wols> cplx: yes. that should be all that's needed. proper mail to the proper recipient. done
[06:08] <wols> !av | dabbu
[06:08] <leo_away> hsteve: but if I were you I'd check with alsamixer if the volume is all the way up and that the master channel is not mute first
[06:08] <leo_away> dabbu: are you running a mail server?
[06:09] <Gumby> I've compiled my own mythtv packages and mythtv-common is failing to install.  Is there a way I can see why exactly? All its telling me is "subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1"
[06:09] <Gnea> !sound | eblume '
[06:09] <dabbu> no
[06:09] <Gnea> eblume: that's weird... have you tried with alsamixer?
[06:09] <dabbu> leo_away:no
[06:09] <nickrud> eblume try right clicking the volume control, then preferences. Check the controlled device, should be master (some use pcm)
[06:09] <bastid_raZor> i'm getting :: (nautilus:17552): WARNING **: Can not calculate _NET_NUMBER_OF_DESKTOPS in .xession-error
[06:09] <wols> Gumby: use dpkg to install and paste everything
[06:09] <Gumby> wols: that was using dpkg
[06:09] <gaelfx> can anyone help me figure out why scim-setup segfaults on startup?
[06:09] <blistov> how do i force whatever modifies my Xsessions to reinstall and reconfigure completely?
[06:09] <wols> Gumby: the pastebin the result
[06:09] <leo_away> dabbu: then the answer is most likely no. The antiviruses you can get in GNU/Linux check for Windoze viruses
[06:09] <Gnea> !anyone | gaelfx
[06:10] <leo_away> dabbu: they are there to make you avoid spreading viruses to other windoze comps
[06:10] <eblume> Gnea, thanks, I will try alsamixer
[06:10] <gaelfx> gnea: yeah, got it, just asking for help figuring out what the problem is because I can't figure it out myself
[06:10] <Gumby> !pastebin
[06:10] <Gumby> wols: http://paste.ubuntu.com/36399/
[06:10] <Gnea> gaelfx: oh, sorry. are you running it as user or root?
[06:11] <eblume> nickrud, Master is selected, but I should mention there are several devices listed that look like valid sound devices
[06:11] <dabbu> le0_away:ok then i dont need a virus in my case because personally i like to spread virus to windows comp
[06:11] <eblume> nickrud, how do I know which sound device is actually supplying the sound?
[06:11] <leo_away> dabbu: that's the spirit! :P
[06:11] <gaelfx> Gnea: I've tried both, on user it segfaults, root doesn't show anything, just quits
[06:11] <ra21vi> dabbu: you are stupid
[06:11] <nickrud> yah. Try the alsa device first
[06:11] <Gnea> !language | ra21vi
[06:11] <Gnea> !ot | dabu
[06:11] <cplx> wols; to test mailx.. what would I use? mailx -s subject -r recipient ?
[06:11] <ra21vi> Gnea: he should say this
[06:11] <dabbu> ra21vi:why
[06:11] <wols> Gumby: the postinst script of mythtv-common. edit the first line and add -X at the end of the #! line
[06:12] <wols> cplx: something liek that
[06:12] <ra21vi> dabbu: whatevr the people use, it doesnt matter
[06:12] <dabbu> ﻿leo_away:thanks
[06:12] <Gumby> wols: where might I find that?
[06:12] <nickrud> eblume but I'm definitely no sound expert. If I'm not able to help quickly, don't waste too much time with me ;)
[06:12] <eblume> nickrud, 5 of the 6 sound devices listed have the word ALSA in them
[06:12] <wols> Gumby: /var/lib/dpkg/info/
[06:12] <greg__> Anyone know how to change the screen resolution after install new ATI G/card
[06:12] <nickrud> eblume alsa mixer device more accurately
[06:12] <leo_away> dabbu: yeah, no problem. In my opinion if they keep using Win it's their problem to run an AV. But I won't say it because that's offtopic
[06:12] <cplx> wols; ok.. its just sitting there.. after pressing enter
[06:12] <cplx> wols; doesn't look like anything is happening
[06:13] <wols> cplx: since you didn't gave a message body text
[06:13] <ozpowermo> unrelated to ubunty, does anybody know how to "mute" all of these room notification messages? Is there a way to turn them off?
[06:13] <eblume> nickrud, no device is called just "alsa mixer"
[06:13] <eblume> nickrud, but 4 devices have the word "alsa mixer" in it
[06:13] <ra21vi> dabbu: since people has freedom to choose, its just matter of preference, and awareness
[06:13] <gaelfx> hey, how do I setup this irc channel for use in pidgin?
[06:13] <cplx> wols; whats the last character
[06:13] <wols> ozpowermo: look at "ignore" command of your irc client
[06:13] <nickrud> eblume mine says SB alsa-mixer. Suprised you have that many. Try each
[06:13] <cplx> wols; to finish the message, and or send?
[06:13] <wols> cplx: cltr+d or so
[06:13] <eblume> nickrud, thank you very much
[06:13] <dabbu> ﻿ra21vi:can i ask u one thing......why Newton lets his ideas to be known to the whole world.
[06:13] <leo_away> ra21vi: that's OT, I'd be interested to continue that convo in #ubuntu-offtopic, care to join me?
[06:14] <nickrud> eblume one of them worked?
[06:14] <eblume> Does anyone know how to discern which of several sound devices listed in the sound applet is actually supplying the observed sound?
[06:14] <eblume> nickrud, no, about to test
[06:14] <cplx> postdrop: warning: unable to look up public/pickup: No such file or directory
[06:14] <Gumby> wols: http://paste.ubuntu.com/36400/
[06:14] <Sixofour> So how is ubuntu these days?
[06:14] <leo_away> Sixofour: hardy :P
[06:14] <nickrud> eblume it's going to depend on you hardware, the answer to your previous question
[06:14] <gaelfx> how can I setup pidgin to participate in this chat channel?
[06:14] <cplx> wols; postdrop: warning: unable to look up public/pickup: No such file or directory
[06:15] <error404notfound> I used apt-get upgrade, and now its giving problems, how can I downgrade?
[06:15] <Sixofour> do i still need 9463 lines of code to do simple stuff like..oh, listen to an mp3?
[06:15] <dabbu> best game to be played on linux????????????
[06:15] <bobertdos> In theory, with IP Tables'/Firestarter's assistance, one SHOULD still be able to use DHCP with an ad hoc, network, correct?
[06:15] <wols> error404notfound: downgrade is not supported
[06:15] <eblume> nickrud, ok, how does it depend?
[06:15] <leo_away> Sixofour: mp3 support is installed the first time you try to play and mp3
[06:15] <wols> bobertdos: depends how you set iptables upp
[06:15] <leo_away> Sixofour: but google could have told you that
[06:16] <Sixofour> ive been wanting to use ubuntu but ive had trouble every time..not with mp3, but more advanced stuff
[06:16] <eblume> dabbu, that is a subjective question, depending on your personal preference. Try bzflag. Also, adding more question marks doesn't make people answer faster.
[06:16] <gaelfx> error404notfound: probably have to reinstall the old version :S
[06:16] <Ahadiel> !games | dabbu
[06:16] <nickrud> eblume each chip has a different driver. That driver is exposed in that preference, so which hardware/driver combo you have will determine what gets displayed
[06:16] <gaelfx> error404notfound: do you still have the old CD you used to install?
[06:16] <leo_away> dabbu: I like battle for wesnoth and openarena
[06:16] <Sixofour> but i think the problem wasn't ubuntu :/
[06:16] <dabbu> eblume:ok
[06:16] <gaelfx> how can I setup pidgin to participate in this chat channel?
[06:16] <eblume> nickrud, well what I want to know is which sound device is actually being used by the computer
[06:16] <dabbu> ok
[06:17] <bobertdos> wols: Yeah, I'm just trying to figure out a way for it to work, because in the wiki, the example goes entirely by static assignment.
[06:17] <dabbu> leo_away:can i know something about openarena
[06:17] <cplx> wols; nothing is coming through, how does Postfix/mailx know how to route mail to my exchange server.. i dont understand
[06:17] <cplx> wols; without any configuration.......
[06:17] <leo_away> Sixofour: are you asking about ubuntu compared to other distros or ubuntu compared to, say, windows or mac?
[06:17] <gaelfx> can't someone tell me how to setup pidgin to join this channel?
[06:18] <leo_away> dabbu: it is a quake clone.
[06:18] <ozpowermo> Does anybody know how to turn off the notification messages (people leaving and joining the channel)?
[06:18] <Sixofour> i was actually asking about how user friendly Wine is, but this is the wrong channel
[06:18] <cellofellow> :( I still can't get my .asoundrc file to do anything whatsoever.
[06:18] <leo_away> ozpowermo: depends on your client
[06:18] <wols> cplx: your exchange server has a FQDN. it looks that up via DNS' mx record and connects to that IP on port 25 and delivers
[06:18] <nickrud> eblume those are all interfaces to the device. One is going to be mike input (so you can use the volume control to alter input), another the mike that might be on your camera, etc.
[06:18] <Sixofour> i need my FLStudio to run with Vsti on ubuntu
[06:18] <ozpowermo> leo_away: I have pidgin...
[06:18] <bobertdos> gaelfx: It should just be under Buddies->Add Chat
[06:18] <nickrud> eblume so, try them. I hate the way the dialog window cuts off most of the useful text
[06:18] <cplx> wols; did a 'mailq' i can see all the mail in the queue..
[06:18] <leo_away> Sixofour: yeah, it is, but I can recommend you winehq.org, they have an appdb there. check it out
[06:19] <dabbu> leo_away:i am new here so can i know about stuome other channel for ubun
[06:19] <dabbu> ubuntu
[06:19] <ePax> how do i install tk 8.5?
[06:19] <wols> cplx: check syslog or mail logsa
[06:19] <ozpowermo> leo_away: I tried the "ignore" command, but that doesn't seem like a valid command
[06:19] <bobertdos> gaelfx: Have you configured Pidignin for this channel at all yet?
[06:19] <cplx> wolss; postfix/postqueue[21755]: warning: Mail system is down -- accessing queue directly
[06:19] <gaelfx> bobertdos: nope, I have no idea what to do
[06:19] <cplx> wols; i rather it send the mail internally, not out via the MX
[06:19] <gaelfx> bobertdos: totally confused about where to put what info :S
[06:19] <leo_away> ozpowermo: I don't use pidgin, I was just helping you produce a better question so you can get help easier
[06:19] <cplx> postfix/master[21740]: fatal: bind 0.0.0.0 port 25: Address already in use
[06:19] <wols> cplx: what is the internal IP of exchange then?

[06:20] <cplx> wols; 10.2.10.4
[06:20] <leo_away> dabbu: what kind of channel you mean?
[06:20] <rrradio> can someone tell me why my sound preferences>sound tab is greyed out?
[06:20] <wols> cplx: send mail to user@10.2.10.4 then?
[06:20] <bobertdos> gaelfx Alrighty then ;) First, you'll want to go to Accounts->Manage
[06:20] <ozpowermo> leo_away: thanks :)
[06:20] <dabbu> leo_away:to get help on ubuntu and to discuss about it
[06:20] <leo_away> dabbu: get help, here. discuss about it #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:21] <cplx> wols; ok working now
[06:21] <leo_away> ozpowermo: no problem. I use konversation, sorry.
[06:21] <wols> dabbu: you are already in the channel for that
[06:21] <bobertdos> gaelfx: Actually, hold on
[06:21] <cplx> wols; thanks man, now last thing.. it says its from 'root' how do I change the name of the sender/alias ?
[06:21] <gaelfx> bobertdos: ok, holding
[06:21] <wols> cplx: change the from: header?
[06:22] <cplx> wols; yes
[06:22] <dabbu> wols:ok
[06:22] <dev_n00b> How do I install Ubuntu 8.04 on a RAID 0 array on a Netcell based card which contains my vista install?
[06:22] <wols> cplx: depends on your MUA (mailx so far)
[06:22] <lopin> Hello!  I appear to be having a bit of a problem updating...
[06:22] <baldur> I got windows and ubuntu installed on my computer i did install ubuntu through windows with out creating another partition... and i'm thinking of getting rid of windows all together.. do i need to reinstall or should i just allways boot to ubuntu ??
[06:22] <bobertdos> gaelfx: I assume you've registered with freenode and all that already?
[06:22] <gaelfx> lopin: what's the problem?
[06:22] <cplx> wols; yes using mailx
[06:22] <lopin> Could anyone tell me why the update repositories don't exist according to my computer?
[06:22] <dabbu> ﻿ can any one tell me how to configure and use my EVDO card in ubuntu
[06:22] <leo_away> baldur: you used wubi?
[06:23] <wols> baldur: reinstall
[06:23] <lopin> gaelfx, That's kinda it...
[06:23] <gaelfx> bobertdos: I don't think so, I couldn't find a place to register because I'm a lazy idiot
[06:23] <leo_away> baldur: if yes, then what wols said.
[06:23] <gaelfx> lopin: you need to be more descriptive, like what do you do, what happens when you do it...
[06:23] <baldur> leo_away,  i downloaded a file from the ubuntu site and extracted it then installed from there and keeping windows
[06:24] <baldur> i dont know what wubi is
[06:24] <wols> baldur: that is the installer you used
[06:24] <leo_away> baldur: did you install __from__ windows or did you boot into the livecd?
[06:24] <wols> baldur: the one that doesn't mak a partition for ubuntu
[06:24] <Corkalito_> how do i get my firefox to use kppp to go online?
[06:24] <kaldor> I find WUBI to be too unstable to be honest

[06:24] <lopin> gaelfx, the update manager is telling me that my package list is out of date.  When I try to get a list of updates manually, they just time out...  Like they don't exist.  I've tried switching the software sources, and nothing is making these repositories reappear...
[06:25] <wols> hsteve: snd-hda-intel
[06:25] <baldur> leo_away,  wols , i could have choose some other type of install but i asked for this to see if it worked
[06:25] <hsteve> k
[06:25] <PauloRicardo> How I can install Python 2.6?
[06:25] <gaelfx> lopin: are you using Ubuntu now?
[06:25] <wols> baldur: since you used wubi you must reinstall ubuntu if you remove your windows
[06:25] <Airwulf> hey
[06:25] <lopin> gaelfx, yeppers...
[06:25] <Corkalito_> probably a bad repo
[06:25] <Airwulf> how can I avoid the nautilus opening when I plugin a usb hd?
[06:26] <leo_away> baldur: i never used wubi, but I take it that you need to reinstall to have ubuntu as your permanent OS
[06:26] <lopin> wols, there's always lvm...  Or some other way to convert...
[06:26] <baldur> wols, but will it make any difference if i keep windows apart from disk space usages ?
[06:26] <gaelfx> lopin: well, it sounds like something is blocking access to those servers, are you running a firewall, or could your ISP be blocking it?
[06:26] <eblume> I'm still having troubles with audio. I can't mute my audio. Sound is playing back at full volume no matter what devices I select in the sound applet and mute.
[06:26] <leo_away> hsteve: check the alsa site for snd-hda-intel
[06:26] <bobertdos> gaelfx: Okay, first, read and do this: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#nicksetup
[06:26] <lopin> gaelfx, I would hope that the ISP isn't blocking it...  My friend using ubuntu downstairs can get his updates...
[06:27] <Blaqlight> is there a fast easy way to change permissions recursively, nautilus refuses to do it.
[06:27] <leo_away> Blaqlight: man chmod
[06:27] <lopin> Okay..  It looks like it updated, but in about 20 minutes, it's going to tell me that the package list is 8 days old...
[06:27] <Corkalito_> lopin, check which repos are giving u errors
[06:27] <gaelfx> lopin: hmm, ok, hang on a sec
[06:27] <Bruno_F> hello. can somebody help me setting up my wireless adapter in ubuntu?
[06:27] <Corkalito_> sometimes some can stop working
[06:27] <ePax> how do i install tk 8.5?
[06:27] <wols> baldur: english please

[06:28] <pawan> hi
[06:28] <pawan> how to format partition
[06:28] <wols> efrem: does it exist in your ubuntu repo?
[06:28] <wols> pawan: man mkfs
[06:28] <lopin> Okay.  Thanks for the help guys.  I hope it worked this time...  If not, I'll be back, and we can brainstorm some more...  ^.^  Night guys!
[06:28] <leo_away> lopin: gnite
[06:28] <Corkalito_> ok so my question
[06:28] <Corkalito_> i got one of those mobile internet thingys
[06:28] <gaelfx> lopin: could you open Network Tools under Administration and try to ping the repo site you're currently using?
[06:28] <lopin> Corkalito_, Netbook?
[06:28] <Corkalito_> the huawei e220.
[06:28] <gaelfx> lopin: oh, ok, good night
[06:29] <leo_away> eblume: what are you using to mute? alsamixer?
[06:29] <Corkalito_> G modem
[06:29] <Corkalito_> *3G
[06:29] <lopin> gaelfx, Thanks, anyway!  ^.^
[06:29] <baldur> wols,  i'm gonna make this my permanent OS. do i have to reinstall ??? or can i keep it like it is or is that worse ?
[06:29] <Corkalito_> i got it working on kppp but i still cant browse any pages or anything. theres no network activity
[06:29] <leo_away> baldur: keeping gnu/linux on a ntfs partition doesn't make too much sense...
[06:30] <leo_away> baldur: ie. not a good idea.
[06:30] <lopin> baldur, we found a tool to convert the wubi install to a full install, but there were a few problems with drivers.  I recommend a full install, until they get some of the bugs worked out.
[06:30] <eblume> ok, with some more testing I made some progress - apparently my sound card ignores the Master channel, and gets all its sound level info from the "Front" channel. My next question though:
[06:30] <eblume> How do I make my laptop's keyboard sound controls modify the Front channel, not the Master channel?
[06:30] <Corkalito_> eblume are u on laptop`?
[06:30] <eblume> Yes, an HP dv5-1004nr
[06:30] <Corkalito_> yeah i had the same problem but i just ignored it
[06:30] <eblume> leo_away, I am using alsamixer and the sound applet
[06:31] <lopin> eblume, right click on the volume manager, and set the default channel to the front channel in the properties.
[06:31] <eblume> Ok - does anyone know how to actually fix it though?
[06:31] <Corkalito_> even with headphones plugged in, i still get sound from the speakers
[06:31] <jmichelsen> Can anyone take a sec to look at my smb.conf, its not giving access to windows users
[06:31] <eblume> lopin, that works fine to fix the sound applet, but the keyboard controls still operate on the master
[06:31] <leo_away> eblume: I had a similar problem. i have a subwoofer and master worked independently from lfe (the subwoofer) i use kde so I told kmix to use pcm as master.
[06:31] <lopin> O.o...  Hmm...
[06:31] <Corkalito_> i just put the front channel on high volume, the headphones off, and then i use the keys to adjust the master
[06:31] <greg__> Hi, can anyone help me with g/card problem?
[06:31] <baldur> leo_away, so i need to get a cd to do a full reinstall or is there a file i can download and do a full install from there ?
[06:32] <HellMind> Anyone succeeded in installing chrootssh?
[06:32] <wols> baldur: for the LAST time: reinstall
[06:32] <gilda> jmichelsen: users with logins or xp based users who just wanna see it right away
[06:32] <leo_away> baldur: use the cd you used to install before
[06:32] <jmichelsen> gilda: hey gilda lol you always in here?
[06:32] <leo_away> eblume: I believe I had to restart X to make kmix take into account the new master (pcm).
[06:32] <gilda> meh on and off when i get bored
[06:33] <baldur> wols,  i will reinstall
[06:33] <jmichelsen> gilda: well I want a xp user to map to the smb share permanently
[06:33] <baldur> wols,  dont worry
[06:33] <gaelfx> aaahhh, pidginy goodness :D
[06:33] <gilda> jmichelsen: does the xp user have a login - or do they wish to just have the share auto come up
[06:33] <eblume> leo_away, thanks! I'll try that.
[06:33] <baldur> leo_away,  i didint use a cd i downloaded a cd to my windows and opend some file there wich i installed from
[06:34] <emma> If I have 21 GB of free space, how much of that could I make home partition and how much should I leave for root?
[06:34] <leo_away> baldur: you did download a cd... a cd image. it was a .iso file, burn that image into a cd then boot from it
[06:34] <jmichelsen> gilda: a login to the nix? they sort of do, I can map it with my login, not a secure network just home stuff, and I dont want them to have to do anything after i set it up initially
[06:34] <wols> emma: ~5 GB /, some swap, rest /home
[06:34] <djhash> baldur: where did u get the CD from?
[06:35] <gaelfx> oh, sweet, in pidgin you can ignore people! haha, this will make this room soooo much nicer
[06:35] <baldur> djhash, ubuntu.com
[06:35] <leo_away> emma: it's really up to you, on my ubuntu I have 5 for root and on my debian i have 2 (the debian is a laptop and I don't need a lot of stuff)
[06:35] <emma> Okay thanks. This is on a laptop also.
[06:35] <leo_away> gaelfx: I thought that every client had that feature
[06:35] <djhash> baldur: do what leo_away said... burn it onto a CD then boot from it..
[06:35] <gilda> jmichelsen: then you may have to set 'guest' as the account for the smb shares - with blank passwd so that windows hide it from you networkin will have its free flow
[06:35] <baldur> leo_away,  i have to do it like that i cant do it with out burning it to a cd and just extracting the iso to the computer and installing that way ?
[06:35] <greg__> I cant change my screen resolution after installing ne ATI G/card?
[06:35] <gaelfx> leo_away: not chatzilla, not that I could find anyways
[06:35] <Gnea> greg__: you can't?
[06:35] <leo_away> gaelfx: /ignore ?
[06:36] <leo_away> baldur: negative
[06:36] <gaelfx> leo_away: didn't know about that one
[06:36] <DiGiTaL> Problem with my ubuntu, its at 100% processor usage, and I dont even know why.
[06:36] <jmichelsen> gilda: so create a guest user on the smb nix box?
[06:36] <baldur> leo_away,  aight thanks
[06:36] <gaelfx> leo_away: kinda moot now though, but thanks!
[06:36] <leo_away> baldur: no problem
[06:36] <Gnea> gaelfx: /ignore is a basic irc command :)
[06:36] <baldur> leo_away,  i will reinstall :)
[06:36] <leo_away> gaelfx: ^ what Gnea said.
[06:36] <gaelfx> DiGiTaL: which version are you using?
[06:36] <DiGiTaL> 8.04
[06:36] <greg__> I installed a new ATI 2400 pro and now i cant get better than 640x480
[06:36] <Gnea> !irc > gaelfx
[06:36] <leo_away> baldur: : -)
[06:36] <djhash> baldur: it is a CD image.. you are not meant to not boot from a CD.. ur lucky ubuntu has windows installer in it to let you try out.. otherwise ur method wouldn't have worked..
[06:36] <gaelfx> Gnea: yeah, I've never used irc before
[06:36] <Gnea> gaelfx: lot of good info there
[06:36] <cellofellow> are there any apps for recording audio that natively support PulseAudio? Ardour is for JACK which I don't want. Audacity can do OSS and ALSA. But what about Pulse?
[06:36] <gilda> jmichelsen: in the smb config - that is if you can pull up the smb server already with the local account
[06:37] <jmichelsen> gilda: I have the share set, guest ok = yes, and I can see the share in windows ie \\server but when i try to access the share I get access denied
[06:37] <leo_away> gaelfx: oh, it's lots of fun! :P
[06:37] <gaelfx> gnea sweet, thanks!
[06:37] <monteslu> anyone have 8.04 working as an ldap client?
[06:37] <wols> greg__: a long time ago I asked you to paste your Xorg.0.log
[06:37] <gilda> jmichelsen: k 2 secs lemme peek at me smb config
[06:37]  * leo_away likes the /me in particular, gaelfx
[06:37] <baldur> djhash,  i knew that i tried burning it to a cd before and it didint work then i tried that windows installer
[06:37] <gaelfx> DiGiTaL: why don't you open System Monitor and find out which process is using your cpu so much?
[06:37] <Gnea> gaelfx: yeah, irc's been around since the 80's, long before IM was ever considered
[06:37] <jmichelsen> gilda: great thanks, I can post mine also if need be
[06:38] <gaelfx> DiGiTaL: System->Administration->System Monitor
[06:38] <leo_away> baldur: don't just burn the file as a file, burn the file as an image
[06:38] <greg__> Yes and I would if I knew what is was and where to find it?
[06:38] <jmichelsen> gilda: may be a good idea lol i really have no clue yet
[06:38] <emma> Does it make any difference if the new partition is made at the beginning or the end of the available space?
[06:38] <wols> emma: no
[06:38] <emma> (im making a home partition and the rest of the space will be for / )
[06:38] <DiGiTaL> gaelfx: Ok I'll try it
[06:38] <gaelfx> Gnea: yeah, you would think I would have used it by now, but nope
[06:38] <baldur> leo_away,  ahh ok i will do
[06:38] <gaelfx> DiGiTaL: ok, let me know what's eating it up and maybe I can help
[06:38] <baldur> leo_away,  djhash , will reinstall s00n
[06:38] <leo_away> baldur: and you may have to set your booting priority from your bios
[06:39] <BrendanWelsh> Is there maybe a terminal command that will DIM my screen so I can put my music playlist on and go to bed but still have the screen on?
[06:39] <gilda> jmichelsen: wanna pastebin yours so i can compare
[06:39] <Gnea> gaelfx: many people don't know about it (and that's probably a good thing!)
[06:39] <leo_away> BrendanWelsh: xset dpms force off
[06:39] <baldur> leo_away,  my booting is set right i'm installing windows like 10 times a year now ... hate that crap (sorry for the languge)
[06:39] <leo_away> BrendanWelsh: I was looking for it a second ago ;-)
[06:39] <GaiQue^> ox
[06:39] <emma> wols should i say the mount point is /home  or should i say the lable is home?
[06:39] <jmichelsen> gilda:  yea 1sec
[06:39] <leo_away> baldur: haha... been there, done that
[06:39] <gaelfx> Gnea: oh yeah, this room is already a mess even without all those unkowns out there, could be really bad otherwise
[06:40] <wols> emma: mount point and label both
[06:40] <djhash> BrendanWelsh: or u can set it to a blank screensaver
[06:40] <Gnea> gaelfx: that's true.
[06:40] <baldur> leo_away, working on changing all my computers to linux i'm totally fed up with this windows crap...
[06:40] <emma> okay so i should both set the mount point to /home and i should lable it home.
[06:40] <jmichelsen> gilda: you want the whole thing or just the one share?
[06:40] <emma> is that correct wols?
[06:40] <DiGiTaL> gaelfx: Im actually trying to help someone else :) He said he cant go to system monitor because its taking 100% of the proesses so he's restarting
[06:40] <leo_away> baldur: join the forums if you haven't yet
[06:40] <Gnea> gaelfx: the difference here, is that it's very well organized. :)
[06:40] <gaelfx> DiGiTaL: ok, hang on
[06:41] <gilda> jmichelsen: the share to begin with
[06:41] <baldur> leo_away,  i joined the ubuntu forums that where on the front page
[06:41] <gaelfx> Gnea: haha, maybe :P
[06:41] <jmichelsen> gilda: http://paste.ubuntu.com/36404/
[06:41] <leo_away> baldur: yup, the forum is a really cool place...
[06:41] <gaelfx> hey, which command is it that lists processes in terminal?
[06:41] <raheem> gaelfx: top
[06:41] <jmichelsen> gilda: I was getting desperate trying to figure it out so there may be exesive commands there
[06:41] <Gnea> gaelfx: ps
[06:42] <gaelfx> Gnea: haha, thanks, you're full of useful information :D
[06:42] <leo_away> gaelfx: ps is a list, top is an app that keeps running
[06:42] <Gnea> gaelfx: ps axf  <-- lists it all
[06:42] <Gnea> gaelfx: i do what i can ;)
[06:42] <baldur> leo_away,  well thanks again i'm off to work.
[06:42] <leo_away> gaelfx: you will probably need killall or kill PID after that
[06:42] <gaelfx> Gnea: rock on, good times
[06:42] <leo_away> baldur: no problem, have a good day
[06:43] <Gnea> but, it's bedtime. hasta
[06:43] <gaelfx> leo_away: those ones I remember, just too used to using system monitor to remember the term alternative
[06:43] <gaelfx> Gnea: lata
[06:43] <leo_away> gaelfx: try installing htop
[06:43] <greg__> anyone know wher i find xorg.0.log?
[06:43] <slim_> hello all, is there application for banner design ?
[06:43] <gilda> jmichelsen: is the ; in front of your username in the smb conf - or just in the pastebin
[06:43] <leo_away> greg__: /etc/X11/
[06:43] <gaelfx> leo_away: need something that uses less resources, so ps is the way to go, thanks
[06:44] <jmichelsen> gilda: its in the conf, tryn diff things, neither worked far as i could tell
[06:44] <wols> gaelfx: leo_away is wrong. it's in /var/log as I told you before
[06:44] <leo_away> gaelfx: ps is a cool guy, yup
[06:44] <morbyte1> greg__: in /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[06:44] <leo_away> wols: gaelfx: oops, didn't see the .log :P sorry
[06:44] <leo_away> gaelfx: I just assumed it was xorg.conf, my bad
[06:45] <gaelfx> leo_away: no prob ;)
[06:46] <greg__> Ok found xorg.0.log, now what? Thanks
[06:47] <wols> pastebin it
[06:47] <leo_away> greg__: open it with [enter_favorite_text_editor_name_here] (gedit, most likely)
[06:47] <cellofellow> adding stuff to ~/.asoundrc does diddly-squat.
[06:47] <cellofellow> What am I missing????
[06:47] <greg__> done
[06:48] <leo_away> greg__: like wols said, pastebin it and give us the url
[06:48] <Gumby> wols: I put a -X at the end of the mythtv-common postinst script and then ran apt-get -f install  the output is here http://paste.ubuntu.com/36400/  Any ideas?
[06:48] <greg__> what does pastebin it mean??
[06:48] <gaelfx> out folks, good luck with all your ventures
[06:48] <leo_away> greg__: check the topic
[06:48] <Gumby> !pastebin
[06:48] <leo_away> Gumby: thanks :)
[06:50] <wols> Gumby: my bad. it's -x
[06:50] <Gumby> ah, ok
[06:50] <wols> it should print then each line before it executes it
[06:50] <greg__> http://paste.ubuntu.com/3
[06:50] <Gumby> hrm, same error :(
[06:50] <wols> telling you which command creates the error
[06:51] <wols> greg__: full url. not just part of it
[06:51] <HellMind> Anyone succeeded in installing chrootssh?
[06:51] <wols> greg__: is the shell ther bash or sh or dash?
[06:51] <greg__> Where do i get that?
[06:51] <mathja> How could I install the patch command if I am offline?
[06:51] <wols> greg__: it tells you after you apsted it
[06:51] <greg__> Hey Im only learning?
[06:52] <wols> mathja: apt-zip
[06:52] <greg__> Im sorry I dont know.
[06:52] <Gumby> greg__: you go to the pastebin, paste what you want, enter your name, then press the paste button.  the page refreshes and shows you your paste. copy the URL from the URL bar in your web broswer then paste it here
[06:52] <wols> greg__: it gives you a url with about 5 numbers at the end
[06:52] <greg__> http://paste.ubuntu.com/36405
 greg__: is the shell ther bash or sh or dash?   <--- was this for me wols?
[06:53] <Gumby> wols: shell is bash (or at least thats what echo $SHELL tells me)
[06:53] <greg__> I dont know what the "shell" is
[06:54] <XuThanh> dit, me chung' may`
[06:54] <leo_away> Gumby: ls -l /bin/sh
[06:54] <XuThanh> leo_away dit me mày cái
[06:54] <XuThanh> :D
[06:54] <wols> greg__: pastebin your xorg.conf from /etc/X11/
[06:54] <leo_away> Gumby: that one probably points to dash
[06:54] <Gumby> yeah, its dash
[06:55] <wols> Gumby: not what your shell is. what does the postinst shebang say?
[06:55] <wols> Gumby: make it /bin/bash in the postinst
[06:55] <leo_away> Gumby: you are using bash but if you make a script that calls #!/bin/sh instead of #!/bin/bash then your script may not work as expected. idk if that helps
[06:56] <Gumby> ok, did that and I get the same result (except with /bin/bash) /bin/bash: - : invalid option
[06:56] <wols> Gumby: /bin/bash -x
[06:56] <Gumby> no -e as the script already has?
[06:56] <pogay> there seem's to be a problem with ubuntu 8.04 and QEMU, I cannot open partitions via -hda /dev/sdc3...
[06:57] <pogay> it works in 7.10 and lenny
[06:57] <vald0r> Question: I have compiz enabled. But when i goto click Applications or click a minimized application it takes about 2 seconds of delay for it to show. any ideas
[06:57] <Gumby> ok, there we go....
[06:57] <pogay> bythe way unter lenny qemu works very good, i even could boot a grub and go to the insallation.
[06:57] <greg__> http://paste.ubuntu.com/36408/
[06:58] <wols> greg__: it sets your mode to 640x480 explicitly there. change them to your desired res
[06:58] <Gumby> http://paste.ubuntu.com/36409/   I think that completed ?
[06:58] <greg__> sorry! where?
[06:58] <boganslaw> vald0r you have your 3d drivers installed?
[06:58] <wols> greg__: in the xorg.conf
[06:58] <wols> greg__: then restart X
[06:59] <wols> Gumby: yes it did :)
[06:59] <xyblor> Where do I change the color of the root window that appears after gdm starts?
[06:59] <vald0r> Yes latest nvidia driver for my 8800 gt. Compiz is perfectly fine expect for the 2 seconds of lag on each menu pop out
[07:00] <xyblor> I don't want an orange background
[07:00] <greg__> where do I change it? Thanks
[07:01] <wols> greg__: I just told you
[07:01] <cellofellow> Well, I was able to record with both mics by opening two instances of Audacity. But that only sort-of worked, because I had to run the two instances as different users. :(
[07:01] <daftman> wols: i think that's still a bit vague for him
[07:02] <greg__> There are about three lines of reference to 640x480?
[07:02] <boganslaw> vald0r perhaps instal the compix-config-manager and drop some options ?
[07:02] <greg__> Sorry for my confusion?
[07:02] <greatdane77> Good Morning Y'all. I'm having trouble getting the sound to work. It was working but now it isn't. Not sure why.
[07:02] <wols> daftman: all of them?
[07:02] <Gumby> greg__: read up just about that, it tells you the default resolution.  whichever part matches your default resolution is the one you should edit
[07:02] <Gumby> greg__: alternately, edit them all :)
[07:03] <wols> well the modeline can stay
[07:03] <greatdane77> Can anyone please help me to get the sound working?
[07:03] <beardbar> whats a command i can run to find all files recursivly in a directory over 10 mb?
[07:03] <wols> !anyone | greatdane77
[07:03] <dfgas> k, i want a media player that has a web interface plugin so i can access it on my pda? any ideas?
[07:03] <leo_away> greatdane77: it would be easier if we had a sound card model and stuff like that
[07:04] <greg__> What if it doesnt work? will I be able to get back into my PC
[07:04] <onthefence928> what's a good linux-compatible MP3 player (similar to say, an iPod or a Zune) not necessarily designed FOR linux, but capable on running on linux
[07:04] <pogay> beardbar:  find / -name works recursively
[07:04] <leo_away> dfgas: media player as in video and sound or just sound? cuz amarok does that
[07:04] <wols> greg__: make a backup fist
[07:04] <wols> *first
[07:04] <greatdane77> Leo...what does that mean?
[07:04] <dfgas> leo_away, mp3s
[07:04] <wols> greatdane77: it means without more info we can't and won't help you
[07:04] <greg__> backup is useless once locked out?
[07:04] <leo_away> dfgas: amarok, it is qt and not gtk (idk if you mind, tho)
[07:05] <beardbar> pogway: anyway to limit it to return only files greater then 10mb?
[07:05] <ActionParsnip> !mp3 | onthefence928
[07:05] <dfgas> leo_away, web insterface
[07:05] <greatdane77> Oh Sorry...i'm tired...i have a sound blaster audigy gamer edition
[07:05] <dfgas> interface?
[07:06] <leo_away> dfgas: amarok itself is qt, it does have a web interface, tho
[07:06] <greg__> Thanks anyway for all your help. Ill try somewhere else.
[07:06] <Jordan_U> beardbar: Yes, it's easier to list the things that find *can't* do :)
[07:06] <beardbar> $ find / -size +10000k
[07:06] <beardbar> that works
[07:06] <leo_away> dfgas: it is a script called "web control"
[07:06] <onthefence928> ActionParsnip: i wasn't asking about the format, i was asking about a portable media player like the ipod or zune
[07:07] <wols> onthefence928: we're a ubuntu support channel, not a hardware channel
[07:07] <wols> ipod and zune are pyhsical things which don't run ubuntu
[07:07] <greatdane77> I can't get the sound to work. I have a sound blaster audigy gamer edition. Please help.
[07:08] <Gumby> onthefence928: you'll probably want to use amarok in place of a itune like program. your best best for what you want to know is to search hardware supported by amarok
[07:08] <greatdane77> Leo..can u help me please?
[07:08] <Rat409> greatdane77: afaik its snot supported yet,check alsa.org
[07:09] <greatdane77> afaik?
[07:09] <Gumby> as far as I know
[07:09] <Rat409> as far as i know
[07:09] <greatdane77> oh
[07:09] <Yuji1> rdesktop 127.0.0.1:0  > ERROR: connect: Connection refused
[07:09] <Yuji1> Why?
[07:09] <Rat409> if its the newest
[07:09] <beardbar> i hit ctrl z and it says my find command is stopped, do i need to kill off that process?
[07:09] <greatdane77> so what do i do to get it to work? is there a way?
[07:09] <onthefence928> ok i'll look elsewhere
[07:09] <leo_away> greatdane77: I have an audigy 2 and it work out of the box for me (TM)
[07:10] <Yuji1> vino-preferences, view enabled.
[07:10] <greatdane77> leo...well maybe that's why they made an audigy 2 then...the first one sucked
[07:11] <greatdane77> so is there a way to make it work
[07:11] <greatdane77> ?
[07:11] <Jordan_U> beardbar: find / -iname <search term> -size +10M
[07:11] <leo_away> greatdane77: I wish I could help you but I know as much about the problem as you do...
[07:11] <wols> leo_away: what alsa modules are loaded?
[07:12] <greatdane77> does anyone know about sound and sound blaster audigy?
[07:12] <Jordan_U> beardbar: Yes, ctrl+z only backgrounds a process ( you can bring it back with "fg" ), ctrl+c kills a program
[07:12] <leo_away> leo_away: what's a good aproach on grepping lsmod so it only shows those modules?
[07:13] <leo_away> wols: what's a good aproach on grepping lsmod so it only shows those modules?
[07:13] <wols> lsmod |grep snd
[07:15] <Rat409> greatdane77: apologies,it was XiFi i was thinking
[07:15] <greatdane77> i checked out alsa-project.org and it says the sound blaster audigy is supported..now what to do?
[07:15] <Rat409> lspci or lsusb | grep -i audio
[07:15] <Rat409> see what exact chip
[07:16] <greatdane77> rat? u saying i should type that?
[07:16] <leo_away> wols: http://paste.ubuntu.com/36413/ that's the lsmod | grep snd ... this is the lspci (just in case): http://paste.ubuntu.com/36414/
[07:16] <greatdane77> in a terminal?
[07:16] <Rat409> yes is it pci or usb bus?
[07:16] <dev_n00b> Woot!  Ubuntu installed on RAID0 with WUBI!
[07:16] <leo_away> wols: some of the snd stuff belongs to the tv tunner...
[07:17] <Rat409> what is it with these weird pm's lately
[07:17] <greatdane77> pci
[07:17] <dev_n00b> I just got a freaky PM
[07:17]  * leo_away wonders the same, Rat409
[07:17] <Rat409> so lspci |grep Audio
[07:19] <greatdane77> k the output was 00:11.5 Multimedia audio controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT8233/A/8235/8237 AC97 Audio Controller (rev 60)
[07:19] <tremby> suspend and resume are working on my laptop. i wanted to added an extra script to run when resuming. i've added a script just like the others, given it execute permissions, but it isn't running on resume. since i'm just testing, all it's doing is touch /home/tremby/Desktop/"test-`date`" # it's definitely not running though. any ideas why?
[07:19] <greatdane77> so it's not even seeing the creative sound card?
[07:19] <leo_away> greatdane77: that's your onboard card... try lspci | grep Audigy
[07:20] <Rat409> greatdane77: let me google abit
[07:20] <Rat409> greatdane77: you may need to disable onboard in bios
[07:20] <leo_away> tremby: did you restart acpid?
[07:20] <Bogaurd> I've got something in /etc/crontab, which is supposed to run every minute... it's not running at all though. Crond is running, and the script runs fine when I call it by hand, any ideas?
[07:20] <leo_away> Bogaurd: is it a script or an X app?
[07:20] <tremby> leo_away: yup. still doesn't run
[07:20] <greatdane77> k output is 00:0a.0 Multimedia audio controller: Creative Labs SB0400 Audigy2 Value
[07:21] <Bogaurd> leo_away: a script
[07:21] <Rat409> greatdane77: k
[07:21] <greatdane77> umm i thought on board was disabled...sound works when i boot in vista
[07:21] <leo_away> try calling bash and making bash call the script
[07:21] <leo_away> Bogaurd: try calling bash and making bash call the script
[07:21] <Bogaurd> leo_away: good idea, 2 secs
[07:22] <leo_away> Bogaurd: we had a thread about that in the argentine loco :P
[07:22] <Bogaurd> leo_away, reckon setting SHELL=/bin/bash in the crontab would be enough?
[07:23] <tremby> leo_away: i just tried adding a similar touch line to resume.sh, and that isn't running either :\

[07:25] <tremby> leo_away: just tried adding a script to start.d too -- no luck
[07:25] <tremby> this is very strange
[07:25] <leo_away> tremby: i just added a line to my lid.sh script on my lenny and it works perfectly, how odd
[07:25] <Bogaurd> leo_away: just tried setting the shell,. that didnt work. do you mean to try something like /bin/bash /path/to/script?
[07:25] <tremby> i'll try lid...
[07:25] <tremby> did you restart acpid?
[07:26] <leo_away> tremby: yup /etc/init.d/acpid restart
[07:26] <greatdane77> k rat gonna read that for a bit
[07:26] <leo_away> Bogaurd: lemme look for the thread to refresh my mind
[07:26] <use1> how do i disable cd-rom from ubuntu ?
[07:26] <Bogaurd> leo_away: thanks :-)
[07:26] <tremby> leo_away: i have been too, just wondering if i had to keep doing it every time i try something new though :)
[07:26] <ectospasm> anyone here have experience with udev and bluetooth adapters?  My adapter doesn't get recognized as such on boot, but roughly 24hrs later it starts working, and I can't figure out why.
[07:26] <leo_away> tremby: affirmative
[07:27] <leo_away> tremby: in that way the new changes take effect
[07:27] <l3d> is crossover kinda like wine?
[07:27] <th0r> use1, you can remove the cdrom entry from fstab
[07:27] <tremby> leo_away: added a touch to lid.sh. the light goes off so /something/ is happening, but the touch doesn't happen
[07:27] <use1> th0r:how ?
[07:27] <ParaDoX34690> can someone suggest a good ftp server that might be similiar to FileZilla server?
[07:27] <leo_away> tremby: are you adding it in the correct part of the script?
[07:27] <leo_away> tremby: or just throwing it there somewhere?
[07:28] <tremby> leo_away: ok i moved it to the top of lid.sh and it fired
[07:28] <th0r> use1, edit the file /etc/fstab and remove the appropriate line, but if you have to ask how you probably shouldn't be messing with that file
[07:28] <tremby> so lid.sh is happening... why not resume.sh...?
[07:28] <leo_away> tremby: yeah, you gotta put it in between the correct if/fi
[07:28] <leo_away> tremby: i never changed my resume.sh cuz i didn't need to, i assume it works in the same way
[07:29] <use1> thor:so do i just delete this line "/dev/scd0       /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec 0       0" ?
[07:29] <tremby> leo_away: just moved my line to the top of resume.sh, trying again...
[07:29] <Rat409> greatdane77: so modprobe -i emu10k1 (thats your kernel module apparently) or lsmod |grep -i snd to see if loaded
[07:29] <tremby> leo_away: nothing.
[07:29] <leo_away> Bogaurd: this was the original idea: export DISPLAY=:0 &&  gnome-terminal --command="sh /path/to/script"
[07:30] <th0r> use1, it would probably be smarter to just comment it out.
[07:30] <leo_away> Bogaurd: then someone suggested using bash instead of gnome-terminal
[07:30] <Bogaurd> leo_away: this box doesnt have a GUI...
[07:30] <Bogaurd> hmm
[07:30] <leo_away> Bogaurd: exactly how the thread developed ;-)
[07:30] <leo_away> Bogaurd: change gnome-terminal --command for /bin/bash i guess
[07:30] <th0r> use1, once you comment out that line, when you boot the machine the cdrom won't be available unless someone manually mounts it
[07:31] <use1> th0r:what does comment out line mean ?
[07:31] <Bogaurd> leo_away: hrmm. odd. is the thread publically viewable?
[07:31] <leo_away> use1: add # to the beginning of the line
[07:31] <leo_away> Bogaurd: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=858560&highlight=cron (it's spanish)
[07:32] <pawan> hi
[07:32] <use1> thank you guys going to try it if am back then it soome thing is wrong...
[07:32] <Bogaurd> leo_away: haha. that ruins it for me then :P
[07:32] <nedwell> With Ubuntu 8.04,
[07:32] <Bodsda> Bogaurd, you can use babbelfish to translate web pages
[07:32] <Bodsda> babelfish*
[07:32] <Bogaurd> yeah, thanks Bodsda :)
[07:33] <leo_away> Bogaurd: export DISPLAY=:0 && bash /path/to/script
[07:33] <Bodsda> Bogaurd, your welcome
[07:33] <leo_away> Bogaurd: that worked for me, but I do have X
[07:33] <nedwell> With Ubuntu 8.04, I installed Kubuntu to be able to try out both desktops, but deleted Kubuntu and am back to using Ubuntu.  My only issue is that the Kubuntu logo is displayed during boot up.  It's just a cosmetic issue, but I'd rather it say Ubuntu like it used to.  Can anyone help?  Thanks!
[07:33] <greatdane77> rat k...did that...can i paste the output here?
[07:33] <Bogaurd> leo_away, I'll try it in a moment. cheers.
[07:33] <aslan> hello, I have tne intel 4965 wireless card in my laptop.. and I can't get 802.11n to work
[07:33] <leo_away> Bogaurd: yup, no problem
[07:33] <aslan> I installed the kernel package from the proposed repo
[07:33] <aslan> but still no luck... anyone got this working?
[07:33] <pawan> what is ubuntu
[07:34] <tremby> leo_away: i'm gonna try rebooting -- this should really be working
[07:34] <greatdane77> I'm wondering...it says via as my card when i ran the alsa mixer...it should say audigy...how do i change that?
[07:34] <leo_away> tremby: let me know what happens then, I'm puzzled
[07:34] <leo_away> greatdane77: did you disable your onboard sound card from bios?
[07:34] <Blaqlight> pawalls, its something you wash your laundry with, they claim No More Wrinkles! but I don't know.
[07:35] <Blaqlight> pawan, I mean.
[07:35] <greatdane77> i think so when i got the computer
[07:35] <leo_away> pawan: you mean the OS or the word?
[07:35] <pawan> os
[07:35] <greatdane77> rat?
[07:35] <leo_away> pawan: GNU/Linux distribution based on Debian
[07:35] <pawan> ok
[07:36] <leo_away> pawan: i don't know if that's enough help (or if you are asking for real :P)
[07:36] <pawan> for real man
[07:36] <leo_away> pawan: haha, ok
[07:36] <tremby> leo_away: the test trace i put in the start
[07:36] <tremby> oops
[07:37] <leo_away> tremby: what happened?
[07:37] <tremby> leo_away: the test trace i put in the start.d directory fired when i rebooted, but when suspending and resuming none of my other traces fired
[07:37] <tremby> oh here's a thought... 2 secs
[07:37] <leo_away> tremby: i never tried suspending or resuming on my laptop... i have a feeling it won't work (i have an ati card)
[07:38] <greatdane77> k ummm would the sound work in vista if i hadn't disabled the on board in the bios?
[07:38] <viz88> I'm having some trouble with my network. I don't have internet once booted into Ubuntu, but on top of that, my router looses signal as well. Can anyone help me with this? How can booting in make me lose my router?
[07:38] <leo_away> pawan: http://www.ubuntu.com/
[07:38] <tremby> leo_away: nope... i thought maybe suspending through the Gnome shutdown menu might be different from the hotkey on my laptop. no dice.
[07:38] <dinar> hello
[07:38] <dinar> why virtualbox installation have asked about vmware licenses?
[07:38] <leo_away> tremby: you can make it different...
[07:38] <greatdane77> rat...did u wanna see the output of that command?
[07:38] <Bodsda> dinar, because theres a free and corporate versions
[07:39] <mouseclone> advertisement: just wanted to inform you all of a GDM theme I just uploaded to gnome-look.org.  Just in case you all would like to know. http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=86928
[07:39] <leo_away> tremby: you can make the hotkey call one thing and the shutdown menu call smth different. i did it once on kde
[07:39] <Bodsda> mouseclone, inform people elsewhere please
[07:39] <tremby> leo_away: nah, i don't want that. it was just a possible explanation for these scripts not running. the actual suspending and resuming is working fine -- it's just not running the normal scripts for some reason
[07:39] <leo_away> mouseclone: #ubuntu-offtopic is the place for that
[07:40] <Rat409> greatdane77: isit loaded,i'm finding conflicting info emu10k1,emu10k2 or CA0108 .check here for exact driver http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Vendor-Creative_Labs
[07:40] <dinar> virtualbox is vmware's software?
[07:40] <leo_away> dinar: affirmative
[07:41] <greatdane77> i'm not sure if it's loaded...how do i tell...?
[07:41] <leo_away> tremby: weird script is weird... i don't know what to tell you
[07:41] <Bodsda> !pm | mouseclone
[07:41] <tremby> leo_away: i've just found another resume.d in /etc/apm -- what's this...?
[07:42] <Burky> what video player can i download that will play mpgs?
[07:42] <robbietwothumbs> how do i find out the ip adress of someone who tried to ddos me?
[07:42] <Bodsda> Burky, totem can play mpegs (its installed by default)
[07:42] <dinar> isn't it sun's software?
[07:42] <Bodsda> robbietwothumbs, /whois nick
[07:42] <leo_away> tremby: advanced power manager... mmhh... maybe that's what you are using? idk, I'm not at ubuntu atm so idk what's the default behaviour
[07:43] <joejoecircusboy> robbietwothumbs: His IP is 127.23.56.124
[07:43] <robbietwothumbs> huh?
[07:43] <Bodsda> robbietwothumbs, do you mean a ddos through irc?
[07:43] <Rat409> greatdane77: it looks like its loaded try running alsaconfig
[07:44] <viz89> Sorry if anyone was answering my question, I dc'd again >.>
[07:44] <dinar> leo_away, why you have said "affirmative"? it means "yes". isn't "virtual box" "sun"'s?
[07:44] <ubuntu> help
[07:44] <tremby> leo_away: grr no dice, that didn't fire either
[07:44] <leo_away> dinar: yes as in "it is a vmware app"
[07:44] <robbietwothumbs> i dunno i wasnt on irc but i was using firefox and a warning  came up about excess traffic
[07:44] <Bodsda> !helpme | ubuntu
[07:45] <leo_away> dinar: it is sun's, though... so that's affirmative as well
[07:45] <pawan> how to hide desktop icons
[07:45] <Bodsda> robbietwothumbs, dont worry bout it, this is not the place to ask about ddos'ing anyway
[07:45] <Bodsda> pawan, remove them from ~/Desktop
[07:45] <dukebody> Hello, I'm trying to install Pound, a load balancer, but I get that error:
[07:45] <dukebody> http://rafb.net/p/Bn3QcZ19.html
[07:46] <dinar> is there "free" {full virtualisation software}?
[07:46] <_UnReaL_> привет убунтийцам
[07:46] <leo_away> dinar: virtualbox has two versions of it
[07:46] <dukebody> Doing /etc/init.d/pound start returns nothing: no OK msgs, no error msgs. /usr/sbin/pound neither return anything, but the proccess don't start since I can't find it in the proccesses list.
[07:46] <joejoecircusboy> dinar: What do you mean by 'free', and 'full virtualization' ?
[07:46] <Flannel> !ru | _UnReaL_
[07:46] <Bodsda> dinar, virtual box is free
[07:46] <pawan> hide volume
[07:47] <dinar> full {virtualisation software}
[07:47] <Bodsda> dinar, yes!
[07:47] <dinar> why it asks about vmware licences then?
[07:47] <Flannel> dinar: vmware isn't virtual box
[07:48] <Bodsda> dinar, just install it from ubuntu's repos
[07:48] <KuriKai> hi all
[07:48] <Bodsda> hi
[07:48] <viz89> Well, i'm booted back into windows so internet should be fine. I can't figure out why, whenever I boot into ubuntu, my router loses connection. Does this sound familiar to anyone?
[07:48] <dinar> i have downloaded vmware package files
[07:48] <Bogaurd> hmm. anything I place in /etc/crontab isnt being run by the looks of things... where do I start to resolve this?
[07:48] <KuriKai> Does anyone know how to autoload a module
[07:48] <dinar> then have installed virtual box
[07:48] <dinar> "virtualbox-ose"
[07:48] <joejoecircusboy> viz89: loses connection with what?
[07:48] <Bodsda> dinar, thats the open source edition
[07:49] <pawan> hello
[07:49] <nedwell> After installing (and even after removing) kubuntu from ubuntu, the kubuntu boot screen still appears.  How do I change this back to the ubuntu boot screen?
[07:49] <dinar> and it asks about vmware licences on installation, doesn't it?
[07:49] <leo_away> pawan: hello again
[07:49] <viz89> joejoecircusboy: Put simply, the green light isn't solid anymore. Which.. doesn't make sense to me, since even if I don't have the dfrivers for my ubuntu drive, why does my entire network lose connection?
[07:50] <Bodsda> !splash | nedwell
[07:50] <nedwell> thanks!
[07:50] <dinar> then i tried to install virtualbox-ose-modules-2.6.22-14-server and it also asked that
[07:50] <Bodsda> nedwell, no problem, theres a bunch of info on the wiki aswell
[07:50] <joejoecircusboy> viz89: which connection? A router by nature, has at least two connection...
[07:51] <Bodsda> dinar, you need the    virtualbox-ose-modules-x.x.xx-xx    specific for your kernel
[07:51] <viz89> heh, sorry. the connection to the modem.
[07:51] <joejoecircusboy> dinar: That doesn't make any sense... VMware is a competing company.. Which would VirtualBox require you purchase a license from a competitor?
[07:51] <viz89> The hardware is perfectly fine, i'm sure of it. I've never had this problem when booting in or out of windows.
[07:51] <leo_away> viz89: the connection from the moded to the router would work regardless of the OS
[07:51] <joejoecircusboy> viz89: DLS modem?
[07:52]  * Bodsda hides from Flannel 
[07:52] <viz89> Which is why i'm confused. It's not just my PC that doesn't have a connection. Once in ubuntu, my entire network is out.
[07:52] <viz89> DLS?
[07:52] <Dudekiller> hay i made my hard drive disappear on me on accident and the forms that i looked up arnt giving me the answer
[07:52] <joejoecircusboy> viz89: *DSL
[07:52] <viz89> Cable
[07:52] <Bodsda> Dudekiller, define 'disappear'
[07:53] <Dudekiller> i cant find it anywhere on my system
[07:53] <Ayabara> is there a way I can 'regenerate' my xorg.conf to what it would have looked like on a fresh install?
[07:53] <Bodsda> Dudekiller, it physically exists?
[07:53] <Dudekiller> up
[07:53] <joejoecircusboy> viz89: So, when your PC is booted into Windows, router connects to modem.. What about when the PC is complete turned off, does the router still connect to the modem?
[07:53] <Bodsda> Ayabara, delete it then reboot, at grub choose recovery mode, then choose 'xfix'
[07:53] <Dudekiller> it shows up under sudo blkid
[07:53] <viz89> joejoecircusboy: correct
[07:54] <Dudekiller> but that is it
[07:54] <Bodsda> Dudekiller, what about   sudo fdisk -l ?
[07:54] <joejoecircusboy> viz89: both parts?
[07:54] <dinar> i select virtualbox-ose in synaptic for reinstallation then "apply" and it says : to be installed: vmware-server
[07:54] <Ayabara> Bodsda: thanks
[07:54] <Bodsda> Ayabara, your welcome
[07:54] <nedwell> Bodsda: I didn't describe well enough...  The kubuntu screen shows during boot (the progress bar loading) prior to getting to the login prompt.  Do you know how I can change that back?  Thanks!
[07:54] <robbietwoshoes> what a good program to monitor internet traffic coming into ur pc?
[07:54] <viz89> joejoecircusboy: yes. cable modem => router => my pc, and wirelessly to two others.
[07:54] <Bodsda> !usplash | nedwell
[07:55] <Dudekiller> yea its there
[07:55] <Bodsda> robbietwoshoes, wireshark
[07:55] <nedwell> bodsda: Thanks again!
[07:55] <Bodsda> Dudekiller, ok, what do you want to do with it (please use my name in your messages)
[07:55] <`Immortal`> hi guys....
[07:55] <Bodsda> hi
[07:55] <dinar> version is not compatible with my computer's processor and it uses vmware?
[07:55] <joejoecircusboy> viz89: No no, I'm asking if the router works fine (i.e. connects to the modem) why your PC is turned off?
[07:55] <`Immortal`> i need help regarding booting into Fedora
[07:55] <Dudekiller> sorry bodsda i want to be able to mount it again it has all my music and fix it files on it
[07:56] <joejoecircusboy> viz89: *when your PC
[07:56] <`Immortal`> I am able to boot into Ubuntu & XP
[07:56] <viz89> joejoecircusboy: Sorry. Yes, it works perfectly fine at all times.
[07:56] <Bodsda> Dudekiller, what is the location?     /dev/????
[07:56] <RoshanK> tera|byte, try start x
[07:56] <joejoecircusboy> viz89: But as soon as you boot Ubuntu, it stops working....  that is odd
[07:56] <Dudekiller> bodsda /dev/sdb1
[07:56] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, #fedora
[07:57] <`Immortal`> anybody who can help?
[07:57] <viz89> joejoecircusboy: Yep. For the life of me, I can't figure it out.
[07:57] <dinar> hello
[07:57] <Bodsda> Dudekiller, do you have a folder ready to mount it to?
[07:57] <`Immortal`> Bodsda,  my primary OS is Ubuntu
[07:57] <Flannel> `Immortal`: You
[07:57] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, none the less this is a fedora problem no?
[07:57] <Flannel> `Immortal`: best to just state the issue, instead of asking for someone
[07:57] <Dudekiller> im new to linux im not sure what that means bodsda
[07:57] <joejoecircusboy> viz89: How do you get it working again? (Reboot into Windows, reboot the router, or reboot the modem?)
[07:57] <dinar> Bodsda, version is not compatible with my computer's processor and it uses vmware?
[07:57] <Dudekiller> what would the normal file be bodsda
[07:58] <leo_away> `Immortal`: sounds like a grub problem
[07:58] <`Immortal`> yeah
[07:58] <Bodsda> Dudekiller, ok, im gonna give you a command and you need to copy and paste it (run it in the terminal)           sudo mkdir /media/my_drive && sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/my_drive
[07:58] <viz89> joejoecircusboy: After a reboot, the router regains connection. (a few seconds into the boot process)
[07:58] <`Immortal`> i think its something in the menu.lst leo_away
[07:58] <leo_away> !grub | `Immortal`
[07:58] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, can you state the whole problem please
[07:59] <`Immortal`> when i chose fedora from the list it says ' Bad file or directory type'
[07:59] <Bodsda> dinar, i dont know much about virtualization, please ask the channel
[07:59] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, have you checked the boot line?
[07:59] <Dudekiller> ok i ran it it didnt give me an error bodsda where would the drive be?
[08:00] <greg__> I just installed a new ATI 2400 Pro G/card now cant get better than 640x480. Any help appreciated.
[08:00] <Bodsda> Dudekiller, the hard drive is now mounted at    /media/my_drive
[08:00] <`Immortal`> boot line?
[08:00] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, please pastebin your menu.lst
[08:00] <Flannel> `Immortal`: pastebin your menu.lst and the output of sudo fdisk -l
[08:00] <`Immortal`> k
[08:00] <Bodsda> !paste > `Immortal`
[08:01] <Dudekiller> thanks found it
[08:01] <joejoecircusboy> viz89: hmmmm... very odd.    After it stops working, if you shut the machine off and leave it off, will it start working again (I'm trying to determine if Windows is repairing the error, or if Ubuntu is making it persist)
[08:01] <Bodsda> Dudekiller, your welcome
[08:01] <`Immortal`> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/36432/
[08:01] <`Immortal`> there u go
[08:02] <Flannel> `Immortal`: that's not your full menu.lst, is it?
[08:02] <viz89> joejoecircusboy: I'm on a laptop right now with my PC next to me. I'll boot into Ubuntu and see if it regains a connection after a complete shutdown.
[08:02] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, also the output of      sudo fdisk -l    and     sudo blkid
[08:02] <viz89> joejoecircusboy: I'll lose connection here, but i'll be back a few minutes later, max.
[08:02] <joejoecircusboy> viz89: k
[08:03] <`Immortal`> It is the full list
[08:03] <Flannel> `Immortal`: please paste the file in its entirety
[08:03] <`Immortal`> the path is /boot/grub/menu.lst right?
[08:03] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, yes
[08:03] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, that file you uploaded is not complete
[08:04] <Ayabara> is there an up-to.date guide on how o install the latest ati-driver on Ubuntu?
[08:04] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, sudo apt0get install pastebinit && cat /boot/grub/menu.lst | pastebinit         maybe easier
[08:04] <Bodsda> 0=-
[08:05] <Bodsda> with pastebinit, do you have to cat the file or can you just say /path/to/file.txt | pastebinit ?
[08:05] <robotic> Quick question - does anyone else have problems installing NetBeans from the Hardy Repository?
[08:05] <Flannel> Bodsda: You have to cat the file, pastebinit takes stuff on stdin
[08:05] <`Immortal`> k i've issued the command
[08:06] <Bodsda> Flannel, cheers
[08:06] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, my command? you corrected the mistake in it yes?
[08:06] <vnix> how to solve the "operation not support by backend" thanks
[08:06] <Bodsda> vnix, by elaborating
[08:06] <`Immortal`> http://pastebin.com/f33805a2e
[08:06] <viz89> joejoecircusboy: Odd, it seems to be frozen. Alt f1 isn't doing anything. (my mouse isn't working either T.T) let's see..
[08:06] <robotic> for some reason, dependency complaints start popping up when I do sudo apt-get install netbeans
[08:06] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, you used pastebinit for that did you?
[08:07] <`Immortal`> yes
[08:07] <`Immortal`> damn power-cut
[08:07] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, it looks to me as that file is borked, its half the size it should be
[08:07] <Flannel> robotic: Which dependencies in particular?
[08:07] <joejoecircusboy> viz89: You can't shutdown?
[08:07] <`Immortal`> I have to shut-down cause my UPS baterry is low
[08:07] <Flannel> `Immortal`: Alright, don't upgrade your Ubuntu kernel until you fix that file.
[08:07] <Bodsda> !pm | vnix
[08:08] <Bodsda> kk `Immortal`
[08:08] <robotic> Flannel: " Depends: libnb-apisupport1-java but it is not going to be installed"
[08:08] <vnix> sorry
[08:08] <Blaqlight> `Immortal`, apparently your UPS isn't so :P
[08:08] <`Immortal`> i'm brb when power is up. Hope u guys can help me out later
[08:08] <robotic> Flannel: Two other ones, too
[08:08] <`Immortal`> thanks for all the help
[08:08] <Bodsda> np
[08:08] <Flannel> robotic: Alright, pastebin the output you get, that'll be easiest.
[08:08] <vnix> I want to rename my drive
[08:08] <Bodsda> vnix, in nautilus, you cant iirc
[08:09] <Flannel> robotic: Have you updated your cache recently? (sudo apt-get update)
[08:09] <vnix> I am sorry Bodsda this is my first time using Linux Ubuntu and first time joining this channel
[08:09] <viz89> joejoecircusboy: I forced a restart. For some reason, it wasn't losing connection. (possibly because whatever is shutting the router off was never initialized?)
[08:09] <vnix> so I don't get what u mean
[08:09] <robotic> Flannel: http://pastebin.com/d181a4279
[08:09] <robotic> Flannel: yep, doesn't resolve the problem
[08:09] <Bodsda> vnix, i dont think its possible to change the name of your hard drive -- welcome to #ubuntu
[08:09] <robotic> Flannel: Moreover, installing those packages independently doesn't work; they all depend on each other too
[08:10] <joejoecircusboy> viz89: sounds reasonable
[08:10] <CKyle22> Is there any way I can run VMware fullscreen on one workspace and switch to another?
[08:10] <Bodsda> robotic, have you tried downloading the deb from packages.ubuntu.com ?
[08:10] <vnix> Bodsda, I see but how about other drive? I have another unuse partition.
[08:10] <viz89> joejoecircusboy: Wow, it
[08:10] <Bodsda> CKyle22, i dont think so, iirc vmware isolates the keyboard and mouse, if you can detatch them then yes
[08:10] <viz89> joejoecircusboy: It's frozen again. This is ridiculous
[08:10] <Flannel> robotic: try to install those three in particular (apt-get install package1 package2 package3)
[08:11] <Bodsda> vnix, no, i dont think you can name them
[08:11] <Flannel> robotic: We're trying to get a better error message (why theyre not going to be installed)
[08:11] <CKyle22> Bosada: Ah I see, then no.
[08:11] <joejoecircusboy> viz89: try unplugging the network cable
[08:11] <robotic> Bodsda: no, haven't tried that yet; prefer to use apt-get if I can...
[08:11] <robotic> Flannel: OK, let me try that
[08:11] <Bodsda> robotic, yeah, understandably
[08:11] <Dudekiller> i have a problem with my grafics i have dual screen ati and ive got everything set up but the sudo horiztal reverse (i know thats not the code) comes up with bash cammand not found and the task bar and login screens on the wrong side
[08:11] <kaiwen> Dudekiller you'll have to work with xrandr
[08:12] <viz89> joejoecircusboy: Nothing :\
[08:12] <kaiwen> Dudekiller I have some links that might help you on your way.
[08:12] <robotic> Flannel: http://pastebin.com/d7f8773ec
[08:12] <kaiwen> actually Dudekiller
[08:12] <Dudekiller> kaiwen just to let u know i have everything set up but its just backwords
[08:12] <kaiwen> Dudekiller have you tried urandr?
[08:12] <Neil3> viz89, is your nick a reference to the popular viz magazine by any chance? :)
[08:12] <vnix> Alright then. What about this. After I have pullout my pendrive, the KINGSTON still can bee seen under COMPUTER
[08:13] <Flannel> robotic: Add those packages to the list
[08:13] <Bodsda> robotic, check man apt-get to see if you can force an install on one of the dependencies
[08:13] <joejoecircusboy> viz89: Damn... sounds like you have several layers of problems within problems to sort out
[08:13] <viz89> neil3: Sorry, nope :p
[08:13] <Neil3> aww
[08:13] <viz89> joejoecircusboy: You
[08:13] <kaiwen> Dudekiller urandr may help you put them on teh rights sides, usually you can just drag the task bar to the other window.
[08:13] <viz89> joejoecircusboy: darn laptop keys
[08:13] <kaiwen> Dudekiller are you using kde or gnome?
[08:13] <Dudekiller> i used envyng kaiwen
[08:13] <viz89> joejoecircusboy: You're telling me. And this is a fresh install, too!
[08:14] <Dudekiller> im not sure kaiwen
[08:14] <kaiwen> Dudekiller, really, is it orange or blue?
[08:14] <Dudekiller> orange
[08:14] <kaiwen> gnome
[08:14] <Bodsda> gnome
[08:14] <kaiwen> hmm.. so you are saying that... the login screen is on the wrong side?
[08:14] <Dudekiller> yea
[08:14] <kaiwen> meaning, wrong screen that you don't want.
[08:14] <Dudekiller> yea
[08:15] <kaiwen> what command did you use, or what did you do to configure this?
[08:15] <Dudekiller> its on the left side including my task bar
[08:15] <robotic> Flannel, Bodsda: OK, here goes
[08:15] <Dudekiller> envyng mostly
[08:15] <kaiwen> Dudekiller, you dont' really have a task bar when you are on the login screen.
[08:15] <Dudekiller> and a big desktop guid
[08:15] <Dudekiller> in the ubuntu form
[08:15] <kaiwen> I see...
[08:15] <nathangrubb> yes
[08:16] <robotic> Flannel, Bodsda: http://pastebin.com/d10cea369
[08:16] <Bodsda> !envyng | Dudekiller
[08:16] <kaiwen> basically what is happening is that the command is "left" instead of "right" or something like that.
[08:16] <Archess> hi all, someone know how i can launch a script via cron plz
[08:16] <robotic> Flannel: this may be more informative?
[08:16] <Dudekiller> no when i login the applications place and system are on the left
[08:16] <kaiwen> it works with xrandr,
[08:16] <Flannel> robotic: thats exactly what we needed
[08:16] <Dudekiller> ok
[08:16] <Flannel> robotic: You have hardy-proposed enabled, don't you
[08:16] <kaiwen> ok, install urandr Dudekiller
[08:16] <kaiwen> !urandr
[08:16] <Bodsda> !info urandr
[08:17] <Dudekiller> ill google it do i need to uninstall the envyng stuff kaiwen
[08:17] <Bodsda> Dudekiller, not really
[08:17] <Dudekiller> cool
[08:17] <kaiwen> Dudekiller it's created by the same guy that made envy, not you dont' need to install it, basically it configures which screen is which
[08:17] <Dudekiller> ok
[08:17] <robotic> flannel: how can I check?
[08:17] <Dudekiller> good thanks man
[08:17] <kaiwen> Dudekiller, like left screen or right screen, etc.
[08:17] <kaiwen> np
[08:17] <kaiwen> !xrandr
[08:17] <Flannel> robotic: pastebin your sources.list (/etc/apt/sources.list)
[08:17] <viz89> joejoecircusboy: Well, thank you very much for all your help, it's appreciated. I think it's time I found some linux buddies irl who I can force to come over here >.<
[08:18] <kaiwen> tiem to hit the hay
[08:18] <kaiwen> night guys
[08:18] <firbfs> Anyone having issues with hardy and virtualbox?
[08:18] <Bodsda> night kaiwen
[08:18] <Bodsda> !anyone | firbfs
[08:18] <joejoecircusboy> viz89: np, good luck with it :)
[08:19] <viz89> later.
[08:19] <firbfs> Ok, I am having issues with virtualbox and hardy, anyone know how to install
[08:19] <firbfs> Installation through synaptic doesnt work
[08:19] <Bodsda> firbfs, yes it does -- https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox
[08:19] <robotic> Flannel: OK, just a sec
[08:20] <SkunX> part
[08:20] <robotic> flannel: http://pastebin.com/d647b198b
[08:20] <firbfs> Thanks Bodska, I already installed through synaptic and I no longer have audio through host os
[08:20] <firbfs> Any ideas?
[08:20] <chmac> Anyone know how to make the system "beep" quieter? It deafens me when I'm listening to music on my headphones.
[08:21] <DIFH-iceroot> the new vbox OSE kernel modules are broken
[08:21] <CorbinFox> i just checked my battery status and it is showing that my battery has only 15% capacity.  i am getting pretty much the same battery life as i had when i first got the laptop 1.5 years ago, maybe a little less.  is this an error on ubuntu's part or is my battery really that sucky?
[08:21] <und3rgr0undz3r0> hey, i downloaded a start button for gnome, how do I apply it as my menu icon?
[08:21] <Bodsda> CorbinFox, ubuntu error
[08:21] <robotic> chmac: do you get two volume sliders if you double-click on the volume control in Gnome?
[08:21] <Flannel> robotic: Alright, you'll want to add universe for hardy-updates and hardy-security.
[08:21] <firbfs> Any idea how to get audio back?  I cant seem to find any succesful ways
[08:22] <und3rgr0undz3r0> firbfs, have you tried rebooting?
[08:22] <CorbinFox> Bodsda: i remmeber that a while ago it said i had like 18% capacity tho.  whats up with that?
[08:22] <robotic> chmac: one of them adjusts system volume, the other adjusts regular volume, at least for me
[08:22] <Flannel> robotic: the easiest way to do that is to add " universe" to lines 5, 6, 27, 28
[08:22] <robotic> chmac: otherwise you may try alsa-utils
[08:22] <chmac> robotic: 4 :) Master, PCM, CD, Microphone
[08:22] <Bodsda> CorbinFox, i think this is a confirmed bug lemme check
[08:22] <Flannel> robotic: and, for the time being, comment out your last line too (wicd), just so we can be sure that's not causing issues.
[08:22] <CorbinFox> sweet, thanks
[08:22] <firbfs> yeah, it changed resolution and disabled audio, I reconfigred X11 conf and video is back to normal but I cant get audio
[08:23] <chmac> robotic: I don't think the system beep is on it's own channel in alsa is it?
[08:23] <robotic> chmac:  No, but after I installed the alsa utils I believe I was able to get system volume on a distinct channel, labeled PCM-2
[08:23] <und3rgr0undz3r0> firbfs, have you tried rebooting?
[08:23] <Bodsda> CorbinFox, is this your problem? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power-manager/+bug/67180
[08:23] <und3rgr0undz3r0> hey, i downloaded a start button for gnome, how do I apply it as my menu icon?
[08:23] <leo_away> chmac: I know how to disable it (if that's an option for you)
[08:23] <chmac> robotic: Ok, interesting, I'll try that
[08:24] <robotic> Flannel: trying...
[08:24] <chmac> leo_away: I'd prefer to have it, but how do you disable it? Might lead me to a solution...
[08:24] <chmac> I wonder if it's a file that's being played, maybe I could replace the file with a softer sound...
[08:25] <HAL_9001> Could some tell me if ubuntu installers uses MIB or MB for partions  I'm new to this don't know?
[08:25] <Cyber_Stalker> hello every body, wondering if there is a tut on installing lamp with all the latest components?
[08:25] <Flannel> HAL_9001: It uses MB == 1 000 000 Bytes
[08:25] <Bodsda> !lamp | Cyber_Stalker
[08:25] <leo_away> chmac: no, my way just disables it. I blacklist the pcspkr
[08:25] <Schmackels> Hello! Does anyone have any experience with a "too many packets in the video buffer" error in mplayer under the 32bit version of ubuntu 8.04.1? If so, please help! :) TIA
[08:25] <chmac> leo_away: Ok
[08:25] <chmac> leo_away: I'm on a laptop, not sure if it's the same...
[08:26] <robotic> chmac: You ought to see if you can adjust the overall system volume IMHO; you'll get much better results than just hacking the system beep b/c other programs often play at system volume rather than local vol
[08:26] <leo_away> chmac: I'm on a laptop too
[08:26] <CorbinFox> Bodsda: no, the battery life indicator isnt the problem (tho it isn't really accurate either).  when i go into the details for the batter, where it shows the manufacturer is and model number and stuff, it says it has 15% capacity.  it says it has a maximum of 88Wh, but it currently only fills to 14.5Wh
[08:26] <chmac> robotic: Ok, so you reckon if I install alsautils I should be able to do that?
[08:26] <leo_away> chmac: I know in KDE you can change the system beep volume from kcontrol, I'm not sure about gnome
[08:26] <und3rgr0undz3r0> hey, i downloaded a start button for gnome, how do I apply it as my menu icon?
[08:27] <Bodsda> CorbinFox, sorry, cant really help much im afraid, im a desktop user, dont own a lappy
[08:27] <Bodsda> und3rgr0undz3r0, start button???
[08:27] <chmac> Ok, I'll try looking into that further, thanks robotic, leo_away
[08:27] <chmac> I asked the question right as I was starting a site migration, so best get back to that and come back to this a little later :)
[08:27] <robotic> chmac: you might need a few other alsa-related items from the repos
[08:28] <leo_away> chmac_away: no problem
[08:28] <robotic> flannel, bodsda: hooray!  problem solved
[08:28] <und3rgr0undz3r0> bodsda, yeah its like main menu, but its a start button for gnome, i just wanna make it say START instead of the ubuntu circle
[08:28] <robotic> flannel, bodsda: thanks for your patience and help!
[08:29] <Bodsda> und3rgr0undz3r0, are you using a custom folder icons or the default human ones?
[08:29] <Bodsda> robotic, your welcome
[08:29] <CorbinFox> well, the lappy is 1.5 years old.  i'll be getting a new dell in a few months so i guess it isn't going to be that big a deal anyway
[08:29] <robotic> flannel, bodsda: now to see if NetBeans really is better than Eclipse
[08:29] <neil_d> I have two scanners attached, when I run xsane as a user I get only 1 showing up, when I run xsane as root, I get both, how do I fix this ?
[08:29] <CorbinFox> just a curious quirk that was bugging me
[08:29] <und3rgr0undz3r0> bodsda, custom, im using ubuntu satanic
[08:30] <piotr_> someones knows how to fix music applet in myspace under firefox?
[08:30] <Cyber_Stalker> how do you search the repos for packages? for example sudo apt-search mysql ???
[08:30] <Flannel> Cyber_Stalker: apt-cache search mysql
[08:30] <Bodsda> und3rgr0undz3r0, ok, navigate to ~/.icons/       there should be a folder there called scalable apps?
[08:30] <Cyber_Stalker> thanks Flannel
[08:31] <neil_d> Cyber_Stalker: it is doable in synaptic also.
[08:32] <und3rgr0undz3r0> Bodsda, no, just awn-theme and Buff-Deuce
[08:32] <und3rgr0undz3r0> Bodsda, and firefox-document.png
[08:33] <bullgard4> What is the function of the many Kconfig files?
[08:33] <Bodsda> und3rgr0undz3r0, in a terminal type                locate start-here | grep -i human
[08:33] <`Immortal`> Power back on...
[08:33] <und3rgr0undz3r0> locate start-here | grep -i human

[08:34] <Bodsda> und3rgr0undz3r0, what was the name of the icon theme your using?
[08:34] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, also the output of    sudo fdisk -l        and         sudo blkid
[08:35] <und3rgr0undz3r0> Bodsda, inhuman
[08:35] <Bodsda> und3rgr0undz3r0, inhuman?
[08:35] <und3rgr0undz3r0> Bodsda, yeah, inhuman is the theme name
[08:36] <`Immortal`> fdisk pastebin : http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/36436/
[08:36] <Bodsda> und3rgr0undz3r0, wheres the folder then? run             locate start-here | grep -i inhuman
[08:36] <nonlocal> I am inexperienced with virtual machines, but is it possible to boot an existing windows xp installation under ubuntu from the harddrive of an incapacitated machine?
[08:36] <und3rgr0undz3r0> bodsda, no response
[08:36] <nonlocal> (rather than installing a fresh xp)
[08:37] <`Immortal`> blkid  : http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/36438/
[08:37] <Bodsda> und3rgr0undz3r0, try    locate inhuman

[08:38] <Bodsda> und3rgr0undz3r0, then thats not the name of your icon theme
[08:38] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, i think youve got a few things wrong in this file, gimme a min
[08:38] <`Immortal`> k
[08:38] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, you have 3 OS's yes?
[08:39] <`Immortal`> yup
[08:39] <`Immortal`> other 2 boot fine
[08:39] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, is ubuntu on    /dev/sda6 or /dev/sda7   ?
[08:39] <Archess> how can i launch a script with cron ? when i wrote : "*/2    *    *    *    *    echo "Seb le cretin">>log.log" it's ok, no problem but when i write : "20     8-20/1     *     *     *    /home/seb/script.sh" nothing happen...
[08:40] <`Immortal`> Bodsda,  dev/sda7
[08:40] <leo_away> Archess: if your spanish is good try this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=858560&highlight=cron
[08:40] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, thats very odd, ubuntu shouldnt boot at all
[08:41]  * `Immortal` is confused even more
[08:41] <leo_away> Archess: i'm leaving but we just talked about this a while ago (try googling today's logs)
[08:41] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, basically fedora thinks its / is on an ntfs partitin therefore it wont boot
[08:41] <Bodsda> partition*
[08:41] <`Immortal`> k
[08:41] <`Immortal`> any work around?
[08:41] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, yes, but i dont understand it -- you shouldnt be able to boot any os
[08:42] <und3rgr0undz3r0> Bodsda, if i changed my theme back to normal, then could i use a different launcher icon?
[08:42] <`Immortal`> because the menu.lst points to the wrong partition for Ubuntu too?
[08:42] <Archess> leo_away, my spanish is bad like my english (i'm french).... but i'm going to see the forum
[08:43] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, when grub loads move to the fedora line and press 'e'     then move to the 'root' line and press 'e'   change from whatever it is to (hd0, 6) then hit esc and press 'b'    if that doesnt work try changing to (hd0, 7) instead
[08:43] <Bodsda> und3rgr0undz3r0, yes
[08:43] <leo_away> Archess: figured you were french because of "seb le cretin"... if you still need help ping me, I'll be back in 10 min or so and i can translate that to french real quick
[08:43] <`Immortal`> I tried that
[08:43] <`Immortal`> it doesn't work
[08:43] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, your menu.lst doesnt point to the corrct partitions for any of your hdd's
[08:44] <und3rgr0undz3r0> bodsda do i just change the start here icon?
[08:44] <`Immortal`> i get this error " Bad file or Dir type"
[08:44] <Bodsda> und3rgr0undz3r0, yes
[08:45] <Archess> leo_away, ok thanks
[08:45] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, this is what the error means -- This error is returned if a file requested is not a regular file, but something like a symbolic link, directory, or FIFO.
[08:45] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, but im out of suggestions im afraid
[08:46] <`Immortal`> the funny thing is when i re-installed grub with root as (hd0,5) Fedora works but Ubuntu doesn't :/
[08:47] <nobody_901> irc://irc.efnet.net/
[08:47] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, it shouldnt, (hd0, 5) is an ntfs swap partition
[08:47] <`Immortal`> but i tried it
[08:47] <`Immortal`> using sudo grub
[08:48] <`Immortal`> after reading around on the forums
[08:48] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, all i can say is it shouldnt work
[08:48] <`Immortal`> when i type sudo grub followerd by find /boot/grub/menu.lst
[08:49] <`Immortal`> i get (hd0,5) : (hd0,6)
[08:49] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, that'l only help to find ubuntu's root
[08:49] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, oh, it finds fedoras aswell
[08:49] <`Immortal`> yes
[08:49] <sajab> hi

[08:50] <Cyber_Stalker> any ideas?
[08:50] <sajab> thanks

[08:50] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, fedora install sounds borked
[08:50] <sajab> whts its like in here
[08:51] <jAguAr`> Cyber_Stalker, what is in ur /var/www/index.html file?
[08:51] <`Immortal`> Also when i installed Fedora it doesn't detect Ubuntu
[08:51] <`Immortal`> only XP
[08:51] <bullgard4> What is the function of the many Kconfig files?
[08:51] <Cyber_Stalker> jAguAr` "It works!!!!"
[08:51] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, i think you should consult #fedora
[08:51] <`Immortal`> k
[08:51] <`Immortal`> thanks for the help anyways
[08:51] <jAguAr`> Cyber_Stalker, no html code?
[08:51] <Cyber_Stalker> sec.
[08:51] <Bodsda> sorry i couldnt be of much help `Immortal`
[08:51] <`Immortal`> no problem
[08:52] <`Immortal`> u tried all u could
[08:52] <Bodsda> ;~)
[08:52] <`Immortal`> thanks for your patience with a novice
[08:52] <Bodsda> no probs `Immortal`
[08:52] <jAguAr`> `Immortal`, what's the problem?
[08:52] <Cyber_Stalker> jAguAr` <html><body><h1> It Works!!! </h1></body></html>
[08:52] <`Immortal`> inability to boot into Fedora
[08:53] <`Immortal`> jAguAr`,
[08:53] <manolis> Immortal i have the same problem
[08:53] <Bodsda> Cyber_Stalker, so you have a html file that should print IT WORKS and your confused as to why it prints IT WORKS ??
[08:53] <`Immortal`> so is it a compatibilty issue?
[08:54] <manolis> my laptop stcks in sbin installer when i boot fedora
[08:54] <`Immortal`> i tried OpenSuse 11 a while back & it worked fine withUbuntu
[08:54] <Bodsda> sorry but fedora talk is !ot
[08:54] <Cyber_Stalker> Bodsda no. sadly mistaken you are. in the source of index.html it contains that HTML which should output "It works" when visiting localhost or 127.0.0.1 but when i open said link.. there is no "It works" therefore it doesnt work and im trying to figure out what i did wrong
[08:54] <jAguAr`> `Immortal`, i'm not too familiar with fedora, sorry :/
[08:54] <manolis> sorry
[08:54] <`Immortal`> np
[08:54] <`Immortal`> i'll try at the fedora channel
[08:54] <leo_away> Cyber_Stalker: is the daemon running?
[08:54] <`Immortal`> thanks again
[08:54] <Bodsda> Cyber_Stalker, oh, that makes more sense , i dunno
[08:55] <`Immortal`> Only problem . No one in there!
[08:55] <`Immortal`> :/
[08:55] <`Immortal`> oops
[08:55] <`Immortal`> wrong spelling lol
[08:55] <Cyber_Stalker> leo_away im not 100% sure i will double check now but i have stopped and started and restarted aswell but let me take another looko
[08:55] <FloodBot1> `Immortal`: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:55] <dabbu> can any one help me to configure my BSNL EVDO card to connec to internet
[08:55] <jAguAr`> Cyber_Stalker, isn't 127.0.0.1 the low loopback network?
[08:55] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, theres over 300 people there :-)
[08:56] <`Immortal`> yeah i typed feodra :P
[08:56] <Cyber_Stalker> jAguAr` and you are saying that 127.0.0.1 wont get to the site? are you sure you want to make such a statement?
[08:56] <Cyber_Stalker> :P
[08:57] <manolis> anyone know the release date of mint stable edition???
[08:57] <jAguAr`> Cyber_Stalker, well, i'm just curious if you can go to like google.com, then in the address bar, type in your /var/www/index.html and see if it prints it from there?
[08:58] <leo_away> jAguAr`: that's pointless
[08:58] <Flannel> manolis: Mint is not Ubuntu, please ask the mint people.
[08:58] <Cyber_Stalker> jAguAr` it does
[08:58] <manolis> ok  sorry
[08:58] <Flannel> !mintsupport | manolis
[08:58] <leo_away> jAguAr`: he wants to test apache not his browser
[08:58] <dabbu> http://paste.ubuntu.com/36448/plain/
[08:58] <Cyber_Stalker> jAguAr` i told you already manually opening the file outputs what is expected
[08:58] <jAguAr`> leo_away, oh, sorry
[08:58] <Cyber_Stalker> but typing 127.0.0.1 or localhost into my browser goes to a blank page
[08:59] <Cyber_Stalker> no "It works"
[08:59] <manolis> ok but i respect mint work
[08:59] <bad_image> Hello, I had apache2-mpm-worker installed using apt-get, but I didn't realize that when I recently compiled Apache2 from source codes. Now I need to apt-get upgrade, but it wants to update apache2-mpm-worker, which is no longer installed. How can I remove apache2-mpm-worker from the list of installed packages, without touching my compiled apache2 ?
[08:59] <bad_image>  I guess I need to know which file stores the list of installed packages, and delete apache2-mpm-worker by hand from it.
[09:00] <Cyber_Stalker> so now if apache has just been installed and didnt seem to have any issues why isnt it loading my web page
[09:00] <Flannel> bad_image: your compiled apache should be in /usr/local/ and not in /usr/
[09:00] <Cyber_Stalker> *will reboot ubuntu*
[09:00] <dabbu> any one help me to configure mozilla in ubuntu..
[09:00] <tyeconno> hello room
[09:00] <pawan> hi
[09:00] <leo_away> Cyber_Stalker: weird apache is weird
[09:00] <bad_image> Flannel, I compiled with --prefix=/usr
[09:00] <leo_away> tyeconno: greetings
[09:00] <dabbu> when i click on address bar it does not select all
[09:00] <bad_image> Flannel, I always compile with --prefix=/usr, to avoid multiple versions installed.
[09:00] <Flannel> bad_image: Well, that was stupid.  I'm not sure you can.
[09:00] <zk> while configuring Firestarter for Internet Sharing it is normal that eth0 and eth1 to be set to Roaming Mode Enabled?
[09:00] <tyeconno> greeting just thought id check out ubantu before i properly boot it
[09:01] <Flannel> bad_image: Always put self-compiled stuff in /usr/local, to keep it separate from package management stuff (which is all in /usr)
[09:01] <bad_image> Flannel, That was smart, Debian is stupid, since it's quite hard to find the goddamn file which stores the list I need to edit now.
[09:01] <dabbu> Flannel:i am having some problem wih mozilla
[09:01] <leo_away> tyeconno: your first gnu/linux?
[09:01] <tritium> bad_image: watch the language, please
[09:01] <king> i couldn't use fcitx in firefox after I update it from 7.10 to 8.04,what's wrong
[09:02] <bad_image> Flannel, I've never had collision of libs since I started to compile with --prefix=/usr
[09:02] <dabbu> Flannel:when i click on address bar it does not select all characters
[09:02] <Bodsda> dabbu, press ctrl+l
[09:02] <kcman1> can anyone help me please i have virtual box installed and it supposed to have usb support but it gives me a proxy error, and the virtual machine will not capture any attached usb device, help me please
[09:03] <`Immortal`> Bodsda,  so Labels can be changed & UUID's can't be user changed?
[09:03] <Flannel> `Immortal`: they can be
[09:03] <Bodsda> `Immortal`, uuid is the partitions label
[09:03] <tyeconno> yeah and must say im impressed with it
[09:03] <dabbu> Bodsda:that is ok but in search box also it does not select all characters
[09:04] <bad_image> Flannel, Thanks for your suggestions, and please excuse my language, I need to calm down, Okay? I'll be back in about 5 minutes.
[09:04] <Bodsda> dabbu, press ctrl+k
[09:04] <dabbu> Bodsda:tanks buddy its working
[09:04] <Magez>  l

[09:05] <greg__> Just installed new Video card ATI 2400 Pro now cant get any more than 640x480. Have latest restricted ati driver installed. any help appreciated
[09:05] <Bodsda> dabbu, those are the only ones i know of
[09:05] <dabbu> Bodsda:triple click is what i was doing..but its takes time
[09:05] <leemajors> what command can i use to view all the machines connected to my network?
[09:06] <Cyber_Stalker> restarting ubuntu seemed to have no effect on the borked apache install
[09:06] <jAguAr`> i'm having trouble with dcc send & recieve in xchat. please help
[09:06] <slim_> hi, firefox always close almost of time when deal with flash
[09:06] <leo_away> Cyber_Stalker: is apache set on port 80 as default? i don't remember
[09:07] <lenna> Hi, any good file browsers recommended ?
[09:07] <Cyber_Stalker> leo_away its apache and its like thee most popular httpD so umm yea :D
[09:07] <lenna> hi, could anybody recommend any good file browsers in Ubuntu?
[09:08] <manolis> the default
[09:08] <tritium> lenna: nautilus is the standard in gnome
[09:08] <leo_away> Cyber_Stalker: so? maybe it's set on another port as default as a security measure
[09:08] <jAguAr`> lenna, i use dolphin in kde
[09:08] <leemajors> lenna: nautiluus?
[09:08] <leo_away> lenna: I use konqueror in kde
[09:08] <Flannel> bad_image: /var/lib/dpkg/ has status in it, change that line to "Status: purge ok not-installed" and that might do it.  Your other alternative is to just pin that package to that version, so it won't be upgraded.
[09:08] <vnix> how let Ubuntu run RMVB movie?
[09:08] <manolis> nautilous is the most stable
[09:09] <kahn> Question: I know how to stretch icons, like desktop icons, but how do I make all desktop icons smaller by default ???
[09:09] <leemajors> ﻿what command can i use to view all the machines connected to my network?
[09:09] <xnv> leemajors: It's not that simple
[09:10] <Cyber_Stalker> leo_away im fairly confident it all just works usually
[09:10] <leemajors> ok, problem is i have a freenas machine installed, but it connects with dhcp so everytime i restart it gets assigned a new ip address. without plugging in a monitor each time, how could i find out what ip it has been assigned?
[09:11] <leo_away> leemajors: can you ssh?
[09:11] <dabbu> i am not able to view all the windows computer in LAN in network places but i am able to browse them by writing their IPs manually like smb://192.168.0.15
[09:11] <tritium> leemajors: have you considered assigning it a static IP?
[09:11] <leemajors> tritium: i tried, but it wouldn't work
[09:11] <leemajors> leo_away: to a degree :)
[09:11] <kahn> icon size anyone ??
[09:11] <unop> kahn, http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/susenovell-60/desktop-icon-size-in-gnome-configurable-381182/
[09:11] <kahn> cheers mate !!
[09:11] <xnv> leemajors: If you can't ask the device itself what it's IP is and you can't ask whatever device that is assigning its IP what the IP is, you can try a IP scan if you know what range it should be in.
[09:11] <tritium> leemajors: I'm not familiar with freenas, but I'm sure it can be done
[09:11] <leo_away> leemajors: can you ifconfig once you ssh?
[09:12] <leemajors> leo_away: yep, sure
[09:12] <leo_away> leemajors: actually, how do ssh without the ip? lol
[09:12] <kcman1> can anyone help me with virtual box?
[09:12] <unop> leemajors, how do you connect to the NAS .. samba?
[09:13] <leemajors> leo_away: lol i thought you were leading me through a command sequence :)
[09:13] <dabbu> ﻿i am not able to view all the windows computer in LAN in network places but i am able to browse them by writing their IPs manually like smb://192.168.0.15
[09:13] <leemajors> unop: to configure, via a web browser
[09:13] <leo_away> leemajors: no, sorry. i thought that would work but i realize it would be like the chicken and the egg
[09:13] <gaelfx> does anyone here know a good Majiang program? (I don't mean solitaire)
[09:13] <unop> leemajors, no, to access content stored on it.
[09:13] <leemajors> unop: yep, smb
[09:13] <Zoiks> anyone here know why every program except mythtv will play sound?
[09:14] <unop> leemajors,  smbtree at a terminal should list the device then
[09:15] <leemajors> unop: ah, but i just deleted the share as i was reconfiguring
[09:15] <unop> leemajors, that shouldn't affect smbtree listing the device itself
[09:15] <gaelfx> anyone play majiang?
[09:16] <leemajors> unop: nope, not listed
[09:16] <dabbu> ﻿i am not able to view all the windows computer in LAN in network places but i am able to browse them by writing their IPs manually like smb://192.168.0.15
[09:17] <kcman1> can anyone tell me what a VERR file is and were i might find it
[09:17] <unop> leemajors, smbtree -b  maybe?
[09:18] <`Immortal`> later folks
[09:18] <leemajors> unop: no, just listing the smb shares i have connected to my machine here
[09:19] <hosk> hey i need serious help, i tried to install xen-desktop and it messed up my system, my video drivers and monitor wouldn't get auto detected, i tried to uninstall it and my system is STILL messed up, does anybody have any ideas to help me, i still have the old kernel in my grub so i feel like that means i haven't uninstalled the kernel or headers or something
[09:19] <Kosta> People of the world. You deceive! World mass media conduct propagation of a false information. Russia DID NOT ATTACK Georgia! 07.08.2008 at 22:00 Georgia has attacked South Ossetia. At 3:30 08.08.2008 tanks of the Georgian armies have entered into city Tskhinvali. Artillery bombardment all the day long proceeded, fights with use of tanks and heavy combat material, both against ossetic armies, and against peace inhabitants were
[09:19] <Kosta>  conducted. 1400 civil people already were lost. The Russian peacemakers have arrived to South Ossetia in the evening 08.08.2008 for settlement of the conflict and prompting of the world in republic and protection of the Russian citizens living on territory of South Ossetia. Georgia has attacked South Ossetia on eve of Olympiad, it is top of cruelty and cynicism. Proofs and video-materials look on : http://www.1tvrus.com/ , ht

[09:20] <ikonia> hosk: try booting from your old kernel
[09:20] <XuThanh> hi all
[09:20] <unop> leemajors, does the device have a name (netbios name) ?
[09:20] <hosk> ikonia, that's the only way i can get the internet to work, and i did that, i don't know if i should try booting from an even earlier kernel?
[09:20] <leo_away> fro5tbyt3: kcoloredit or kcolorchoser (both kde apps, tho)
[09:21] <kcman1> hey guys i know this is not the virtual box room but when i asked my question in there the room stoped and didnt move for over 30 min
[09:21] <wannaknow> LVM-Question: How many % of the hard disk should be reserved for snapshots?
[09:21] <leemajors> unop: it did, yes
[09:21] <ikonia> hosk: no - boot from the kernel you used before you install xen-desktop, what happens
[09:21] <unop> leemajors, did? does it have one currently?
[09:21] <ikonia> kcman1: it's a slow moving room
[09:21] <chmac> Ok, found out how to change the system bell settings. `xset b 30 500` works for me. :)
[09:21] <ikonia> kcman1: if you are patient in that room you'll get answers
[09:21] <chmac> Anyone know how to make that permanent? In ~/.rc.local or something?
[09:21] <chmac> I can't remember the name of the file... :(
[09:21] <fro5tbyt3> leo_away:hmm some kde apps work on gmome
[09:21] <hosk> ikonia, i'm in my xfce session, but my fonts are way messed up and my nvidia drivers aren't recognized and my monitor isn't recognized
[09:21] <kcman1> ikonia i did not know that
[09:21] <unop> chmac, no,  ~/.bashrc
[09:21] <leemajors> unop: i'm not sure, i changed something then restarted, then it had its ip reassigned so i can't check
[09:22] <ikonia> hosk: and thats in your old kernel ?
[09:22] <chmac> unop: Sweet, thanks :)
[09:22] <fro5tbyt3> i think ill give them a try thank you very much
[09:22] <leo_away> fro5tbyt3: all of them work but you'll need qt
[09:22] <ogzy> is there any way to wake the computer from sleep mode automatically without pressing power button, like running a cron job at the background?
[09:22] <steez> I have an "emergency" question
[09:22] <hosk> ikonia, yes it's the generic one before my Xen kernel
[09:22] <leo_away> fro5tbyt3: no problem
[09:22] <damo22> how do i adjust the brightness of my LCD display on my laptop
[09:22] <ikonia> hosk: what video card do you have
[09:22] <fro5tbyt3> leo_away: QT?
[09:22] <kcman1> does anyone in here have an idea as to what or how i can get a verr file on my host machine so i can capture usb's with virtual box?
[09:22] <steez> about ntfs partitions and .Trash-xxxx dir ... ~_~
[09:22] <ikonia> kcman1: ask in the virtual box channel
[09:22] <leo_away> fro5tbyt3: kde libraries.
[09:22] <unop> leemajors, so you usually connect to it by ip address not name?
[09:22] <fro5tbyt3> ok thank you
[09:22] <damo22> how do i adjust the brightness of my LCD display on my laptop?
[09:22] <kcman1> ikonia thanks
[09:22] <leo_away> fro5tbyt3: if you are short on ram loading gnome libraries and kde libraries might be an issue
[09:22] <leemajors> unop: no, normally by name
[09:23] <hosk> ikonia, nvidia geforce 5500 that i'm making envyNG update right now
[09:23] <ikonia> hosk: no no no
[09:23] <ikonia> hosk: that could be the problem
[09:23] <leemajors> unop: but i don't know if it still *has* the name i gave it and don't know how to check :)
[09:23] <ikonia> hosk: before you install xen did you use envy ?
[09:23] <leo_away> fro5tbyt3: and installing 50mb of libraries for an app might not be appealing to you... other than that go for it
[09:23] <hosk> ikonia, no, i don't think so
[09:23] <fro5tbyt3> haha
[09:23] <unop> leemajors, try scanning your network with this.  nmap -sP  192.168.0.0/24
[09:24] <gaelfx> does anyone here play majiang? (not solitaire)
[09:24] <fro5tbyt3> leo_away: i have gnome installed on top on kubuntu with gdm as the default display manager
[09:24] <manju> Hi All.
[09:24] <leo_away> fro5tbyt3: there is an app called gcolor2 in the repos
[09:24] <lenna> hi
[09:24] <leo_away> fro5tbyt3: oh, ok
[09:24] <unop> leemajors, using your network there instead of 192.168.0.0/24
[09:24] <manju> Is there any cross compiler Guru here?
[09:24] <leemajors> unop: cool, just getting nmap, will get back to you
[09:24] <ikonia> hosk: the reason I ask is that non-ubuntu packaged nvidia drivers are very fussy with the kernel, the xen kernel updates could be the problem with any extenral drivers
[09:25] <fro5tbyt3> leo_away: your the bomb diggety... can i say bomb in here without gettin raided
[09:25] <ikonia> hosk: for a 5500 you should not need to use envy - the nvidia-glx package should work fine
[09:25] <leo_away> fro5tbyt3: security! :P
[09:25] <eyp511> anybody can help me on how to play youtube on LTS 8.04.
[09:25] <ikonia> linux_manju: what's the problem ?

[09:26] <what_nick_> i am doing ubuntu diskless over NFS
[09:26] <ikonia> linux_manju: you'd have to build you own I think

[09:27] <linux_manju> ikonia: Ah.. I tried that.. GCC and binutils ..etc are installed..
[09:27] <unop> !repeat | lenna
[09:27] <achadwick> georginavarela: google "bourne shell scripting" - bash is the "bourne again" shell.
[09:27] <ikonia> linux_manju: you'll need a lot more than that installed
[09:27] <eyp511> no other drivers required except to install package flashplugin-nonfree?
[09:27] <leo_away> lenna: man 7zr
[09:27] <linux_manju> ikonia: :(
[09:27] <what_nick_> do a for loop
[09:27] <Cyber_Sleeping> does any one have any idea why "sudo apt-get install apache2" wont install apache correctly? it appears as if the package is installed but when i try get to http://127.0.0.1/ or http://localhost/ i dont get the "it works" page to show that apache has been succesfully installed
[09:27] <ikonia> eyp511: thats it
[09:27] <tritium> georginavarela: install and read the docs in the "abs-guide" package

[09:28] <leo_away> eyp511: no, unless you are on a 64bits environment
[09:28] <ikonia> linux_manju: not really an FAQ/howto type of topic
[09:28] <ikonia> linux_manju: quite complex and requires a certain level of understanding
[09:28] <linux_manju> ikonia: I tried http://www.linuxselfhelp.com/HOWTO/MIPS-HOWTO-9.html ...
[09:28] <what_nick_> er anyone for netboot and nfs rootpath
[09:28] <Blaqlight> lol its funny, there is 0 bytes used of 0 bytes available on my ipod, and there are 14 directories. obviously more than 0 bytes.
[09:28] <Cyber_Sleeping> ikonia yes as far as i know. i have rebooted my buntu machine, ive stoped and restarted the apache deamon ive tried forcing a conf reload all to no avail
[09:28] <linux_manju> ikonia: All the steps are done .. But how do I cross compile .. I dont know..
[09:28] <lenna> i have splitted 7z zip files: f.7z.001 f.7z.002, how to unzip both the file with the command 7z?  I used the command: 7z e f.7z.*, but it doesnt work

[09:29] <ikonia> linux_manju: thats not even meant for an ubuntu host
[09:29] <hosk> brb
[09:29] <lenna> could anybody help me?
[09:29] <ikonia> Cyber_Sleeping: what ip address is apache listening on
[09:29] <tritium> georginavarela: you first install it, then it's on your system
[09:29] <linux_manju> ikonia: Yes.. But thats been built from source...
[09:29] <ikonia> linux_manju: it doesnt matter
[09:29] <unop> lenna, perhaps this?   for i in *7z*; do 7z e $i; done
[09:29] <georginavarela> TRITIUM DOES IT WORK WITH MAC?
[09:29] <unop> !caps | georginavarela
[09:29] <what_nick_> er $(ls *.7z.*)
[09:29] <what_nick_> :P
[09:30] <lenna> ok.
[09:30] <unop> what_nick_, bad use of ls

[09:31] <steez> (oups my english is f**cked up today)
[09:31] <Scorp_> Guys, I'm unable to setup JRE on my system... Unloaded the package and even used ln -s to link it to the plugins... What could be wrong ???
[09:31] <tritium> steez: don't use foul language
[09:32] <linux_manju> ikonia: Lets say. If I have helloworld.c and cross compile it.. How do I say which GCC to use?
[09:32] <steez> sorry, i thought *** would be okay :)
[09:32] <linux_manju> ikonia: Sorry I know its basic.. but sorry
[09:32] <Corkalito_> im back again
[09:32] <what_nick_> usually there are symlinked copies of gcc for platforms
[09:32] <Corkalito_> i still need an answer about kppp

[09:33] <OldFarter> I have a ubuntu computer where the desktop looks out of focus.... can i fix this easy?
[09:33] <steez> nautilus is supposed to move files to .Trash directory, but there is no such dir on my ntfs partition ..
[09:33] <linux_manju> wannaknow: Depends.. 10 to 13 %
[09:33] <ikonia> linux_manju: this is not lessons in building software
[09:33] <gene-r> is there a way i can erase the history in my console like command i use?
[09:33] <linux_manju> wannaknow: 30 For alot of file writes
[09:33] <Corkalito_> steez i think its hidden in linux
[09:33] <unop> linux_manju, http://linux.bytesex.org/cross-compiler.html, http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Cross_Compile -
[09:33] <vi390> hej, is there a programm to convert Quicktime Movies to other Formats (divX etc...)
[09:33] <tritium> steez: don't use ntfs for a home partition
[09:33] <ikonia> linux_manju: you dont sound like your at a point where you'll understand cross-compiling
[09:34] <what_nick_> :)
[09:34] <steez> i did "ls -la" as root on the ntfs partition , there is no .Trash
[09:34] <ikonia> linux_manju: there are some basic docs on http://www.tldp.org which explains compiling as a basic introduction, you should be able to move on from there
[09:34] <ikonia> steez: trash in in your home dir
[09:34] <Corkalito_> so does anyone know how to work kppp?
[09:34] <linux_manju> ikonia: Yes. Never done a cross compiling before .. and to be honest.. Programming is not my forte...
[09:34] <ikonia> !trash > steez
[09:34] <steez> oh, so the .Trash is only for the home partition
[09:34] <wannaknow> @linux_manju: cheers ;-)
[09:34] <linux_manju> ikonia: I want to build an environment so that My deleloper can cross compile
[09:34] <steez> thanks a lot !
[09:35] <ikonia> linux_manju: then honestly - cross-compiling will be a tough hill to clime at the moment
[09:35] <what_nick_> lets try try this boot again and get the message .. brb
[09:35] <linux_manju> unop: Thanks.. will try that
[09:35] <ikonia> linux_manju: let your developer cross-compile
[09:35] <linux_manju> ikonia: That will take the fun away from me..
[09:35] <Corkalito_> HELLOO??
[09:35] <leo_away> Corkalito_: if you don't get help here on kppp you can try #kubuntu
[09:35] <ikonia> linux_manju: you'll be trying for months
[09:35] <leo_away> Corkalito_: and please don't shout
[09:35] <Corkalito_> thanks
[09:35] <Corkalito_> sorry
[09:35] <Corkalito_> i been here 3 days now
[09:35] <linux_manju> ikonia: Sorry.. to sound rude.. But Irrespective of you/this channel helps me or not.. I will try and Cross compile :)

[09:37] <tritium> |freddy_|: yes, it's just no longer supported
[09:37] <hosk> through apt-get
[09:37] <leo_away> |freddy_|: there used to be official releases for ppc, i think there is a community port now
[09:37] <steez> no .trash under home too
[09:37] <|freddy_|> :(
[09:37] <|freddy_|> dang

[09:38] <gaelfx> ikonia: thanks
[09:38] <tritium> !ppc > |freddy_|
[09:38] <unop> steez, you got the case wrong
[09:38] <gaelfx> leo_away: haha, you just wanted to say man tar. didn't you? dirty....
[09:38] <tebo> hi

[09:39] <leo_away> gaelfx: lol
[09:39] <steez> unop, i've walked through the wall dir tree as a root , i've seen nothing
[09:39] <unop> leemajors, hmm, can it be rebooted?
[09:39] <leo_away> gaelfx: ask me how to unzip
[09:39] <unop> steez,  ls -l ~/.local/share/Trash/
[09:39] <leemajors> unop: yeah, going to have to get the monitor and keyboard out and do some diagnostics.
[09:39] <tebo> why my ubuntu graphic boot go to text after mount root file system? first line of text boot is preparing file required to boot.
[09:40] <gaelfx> leo_away: oh no he didn't!
[09:40] <leo_away> gaelfx: rofl
[09:40] <|freddy_|> I have to say....it was so hard for me to migrate to linux, since i'm a full time web designer, and addicted to dreamweaver, but i found this bluefish application and i mixed it with a bit of kompozer...and thats when i realized how bad dreamweaver is....how harmful it can get to use that program to do all the webdesigning.....all that trash code it throws in the webpage....
[09:40] <|freddy_|> i couldnt believe how less i knew about html
[09:40] <dusty_>  Hey guys I am running a copy of ubuntu 8.04 server, base install, i have install iptables yet it doesn't log to syslog, what could be stopping this ? i have kern.* /var/log/firewall - restarted syslogd, generated iptables traffic, but nothing gets written to the log ?
[09:40] <leo_away> |freddy_|: welcome to the real world
[09:41] <leemajors> |freddy_|: it only throws trash in the code if you use the design view all the time -- you should code by hand anyway!
[09:41] <unop> leemajors, well, while you're at this .. you should setup proper name resolution on your machine so it can discover the device
[09:41] <Cyber_Sleeping> ikonia i have tried restarting it multiple times and then tried to access the site again and still it isnt working
[09:41] <Cyber_Sleeping> any suggestiions? how can apache come out of the repo's borked?
[09:41] <leemajors> unop: will do, thanks for your help
[09:41] <ikonia> Cyber_Sleeping: I didn't say restart
[09:41] <|freddy_|> but now i'm a happy person...I found my way with bluefish and a bit of help of kompozer...which is seriously buggy but it can help with the preview addiction
[09:41] <ikonia> Cyber_Sleeping: I asked what ip address it was listening on
[09:42] <|freddy_|> leemajors: i know i know, thats why i told myself that i had to learn how to code etc etc
[09:42] <Cyber_Sleeping> oh sorry ikonia i may have missed that *ping time outs*
[09:42] <ikonia> Cyber_Sleeping: apache has not come out of the repo borked
[09:42] <ikonia> Cyber_Sleeping: what address are you pinging
[09:42] <|freddy_|> and here i am...two months later...and i can say i know html/php
[09:42] <reenignEesreveR> sorry for a bit unrelated basic question: I have generated RSA keys for SSH. If someone gets hold of my .ppk which contains private key, is everything compromised or does the other person still needs passphrase?
[09:42] <|freddy_|> just because of linux
[09:42] <|freddy_|> :D
[09:42] <ikonia> Cyber_Sleeping: ping is nothing to do with apache - so if ping is failing apache is not borked - your setup is borked
[09:42] <leo_away> |freddy_|: try aptana
[09:42] <ikonia> !offtopic | |freddy_|
[09:42] <steez>  ls -l /home/steez/.local/share/
[09:42] <steez> ls: cannot access /home/steez/.local/share/Trash: No such file or directory
[09:42] <steez> (I typed it as a root user too , and there is simply no directory in .local/share)
[09:43] <tebo> help me please?
[09:43] <tebo> help me please?
[09:43] <tebo> why my ubuntu graphic boot go to text after mount root file system? first line of text boot is preparing file required to boot.
[09:43] <FloodBot1> tebo: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:43] <tritium> !enter | steez
[09:43] <ikonia> Cyber_Sleeping: what are you trying to ping
[09:43] <steez> sorry
[09:43] <|freddy_|> ikonia...ookkk
[09:43] <ikonia> |freddy_|: thanks

[09:44] <|freddy_|> please
[09:44] <Cyber_Sleeping> ikonia nothing i said ping time outs
[09:44] <Cyber_Sleeping> i missed what you said due to being disconnected by a ping time out
[09:45] <dusty_>  Hey guys I am running a copy of ubuntu 8.04 server, base install, i have install iptables yet it doesn't log to syslog, what could be stopping this ? i have kern.* /var/log/firewall - restarted syslogd, generated iptables traffic, but nothing gets written to the log ?

[10:05] <ikonia> Cyber_Sleeping: please stop saying "this package is messed up" it works fine
[10:05] <Cyber_Sleeping> ikonia it has come out of the repo's broken all i did was sudo apt-get install apache2 and it wont work :D
[10:05] <ikonia> Cyber_Sleeping: if you keep saying that I'm going to stop helping you - I've asked you twice to respond to questions and stop rambling nonsense
[10:05] <unop> :)

[10:06] <|freddy_|> I installed apache 2 like 20 minutes ago...no problem...and with the same command
[10:07] <leo_away> Cyber_Sleeping: if the package is broken there would be a bug report on launchpad
[10:08] <gaelfx> better yet: opening scim-setup as user yields a segfault, opening it as root yields nothing (no setup, but no segfault)?
[10:08] <ogzy> i am trying to use rtcwake command at the console but i got rtcwake: /dev/rtc0 not enabled for wakeup events error message, anybody had xperienced this command before at hardy?

[10:11] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿zenmaster: do you run Gnome or KDE desktop ?
[10:11] <bullgard4> What is the function of the many Kconfig files?
[10:11] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿zenmaster: it may be it was made for KDE and not Gnome, that is what i am getting at.
[10:11] <zenmaster> oh
[10:11] <ikonia> bullgard4: kernel build files
[10:12] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿zenmaster: i will check on my machine
[10:12] <zenmaster> dozedonlinux: i have gnome
[10:12] <xim> why wont gedit open binary files?
[10:12] <what_nick_> passing root-path via dhcp options channels it to the nfs mount script but I get device or resource busy message
[10:12] <xim> even notepad will
[10:12] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿zenmaster: package says: KDE-based, but will also run on other desktops.
[10:12] <ikonia> xim: you can't edit binary files
[10:13] <xim> but what if i just want to look at the contents?
[10:13] <pen> I can't install amaya 10 on ubuntu
[10:13] <ikonia> xim: it's binary - you can't read it
[10:13] <what_nick_> i have been on and off about nfs rooted system if anyone has been followinf

[10:13] <zenmaster> dozedonlinux: so it should work then?
[10:13] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿﻿zenmaster:  installing it on my machine, give me min, and i will check

[10:13] <pen> the error I got is something like
[10:13] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿﻿zenmaster: yes, i would think so
[10:13] <hatter> how do i stop gnome from opening opening new windows every time you clikc on them
[10:13] <unop> ikonia,  i just tried ..  get /  as opposed to GET / .. the former fails with a  501 - Method Not Implemented
[10:13] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿﻿zenmaster: wow why so big for simple alarm ?
[10:14] <zenmaster> dozedonlinux: pandora is working
[10:14] <ikonia> unop: one moment
[10:14] <zenmaster> dozedonlinux: lol
[10:14] <xim> cool neil
[10:14] <xim> thx
[10:14] <zenmaster> dozedonlinux: do you know of another alarm that might work instead, possibly made for gnome
[10:14] <ikonia> unop: just do a "get index.html" see what you get
[10:14] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿﻿zenmaster: i see not just a simple alarm.
[10:14] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿﻿zenmaster:  i can check
[10:15] <zenmaster> dozedonlinux: thanks man cause i cant find anything

[10:15] <zenmaster> screen-x: atd?
[10:15] <ikonia> unop: perfect

[10:16] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿﻿zenmaster:  checking one called > wmtimer
[10:16] <zenmaster> dozedonlinux: thanks
[10:16] <zenmaster> screen-x: thanks
[10:16] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿zenmaster: WMTimer is a dockable alarm clock for WindowMaker which can be run in
[10:16] <DozedOnLinux> alarm, countdown timer, or chronograph  mode. In alarm or timer mode,
[10:16] <unop> ikonia, well, it ought to no? :)
[10:17] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿zenmaster: i think that should work for you
[10:17] <screen-x> zenmaster: may not be what you need, but could be used as a simple alarm
[10:17] <DistroJockey> neil_d, have you given your user account rights to use scanners?
[10:17] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿screen-x: basically what i figured
[10:17] <xim> still, is there any way to make gedit just use standard ascii encoding and interpret a binary file?
[10:17] <ikonia> unop: yes, i think I miss-understood your initial comment
[10:18] <neil_d> DistroJockey: yes! it finds the scanner in the multi-printer-scanner device

[10:18] <pen> what should I do
[10:18] <viciouslime> hi everybody :) I'm looking for some help with packaging a project I'm working on, I've pretty much got the deb file to work just as I want, except for menu entries... I have a .desktop file which is installed to /usr/share/applications/ but the entry only appears in the menu after i restart gnome-panel, is there a command to get the menus to update once my deb has finished installing?
[10:18] <ikonia> unop: that was not what I picked up, sorry
[10:19] <SonusLeo_> What would be a good ftp-client ?
[10:19] <unop> ikonia, no worries .. it's not relevant anymore
[10:19] <trmanco> SonusLeo_: filezilla or use the comand line :)
[10:19] <leo_away> SonusLeo_: konqueror!

[10:21] <jblack> I've been having a small problem with dualheading lately. I think it started with recent hardy, and seems to be present in intrepid as well. I've tried googling for what can go up, but I'm not getting anywhere. Basically, what I'm seeing is whenever a new window is open, the second monitor turns black for about 1/2 a second.
[10:21] <unop> !info menu | viciouslime
[10:22] <jblack> I'd like to know if anyone else is seeing it, and if not, how to verify it's not user error, and if not what would be the best to file against.
[10:23] <viciouslime> unop: this would mean my package would have to depend on that though right, as it's not installed by default? Surely there's a better way to do this as other packages manage to add things to the menu without making me install menu... thanks for trying though :)
[10:23] <Scorp_> guys, i need help regarding installation of JAVA on Firefox.. There are two firefox directories in /usr/lib.. Which one to use ???
[10:23] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿jblack: what type pf monitor is the second one(that is in question ?? CRT/LCD/other ?
[10:24] <unop> viciouslime, i dunno, it seems to be installed on my machine -- but my machine's been through quite a few upgrades, it must have stuck through them
[10:24] <viciouslime> unop: ok, thanks anyway :)
[10:24] <unop> Scorp_, why don't you just install the sun-java6-jre package?
[10:25] <jblack> The external monitor is a 22" LCD, hooked up to a laptop with it's on 17". things worked great for.. 2 weeks or so. After updating (while still on hardy) about a week ago, it started acting up, at which point I decided to start testing intrepid.
[10:25] <Scorp_> unop: Thats not really the latest thing... Umm, its 1.6.0_06 and the latest is 1.6.0_07
[10:26] <jblack> If I remember correctly, there was a pile of x.org stuff for hardy. I may have confused that with switching to intrepid, though.
[10:26] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿jblack: you may wish to search for the xorg.conf from that time period (when it was working "fine") and compare it to your current one,
[10:26] <jblack> DozedOnLinux: That's the thing; It's the same one.
[10:26] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿jblack: same xorg.conf file ?
[10:26] <jblack> From July 29th.
[10:26] <steez> okay i got it
[10:27] <unop> Scorp_, why do you want the latest ?
[10:27] <steez> there was not enough space on my ubuntu partition to move files
[10:27] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿jblack: is everything that displays 1/2 second behind, or just when intitialized ?
[10:27] <steez> so no .local/share/Trash was created
[10:27] <Scorp_> unop: I have a site which uses it so need to upgrade to the latest.
[10:27] <mneptok> jblack: please take Interpid questions to #ubuntu+1
[10:27] <jblack> Oh, it's not behind. WHen I open a new window on the desktop, whether mozilla, gnome-terminal, most anything but 'run application', the second monitor.. blinks... off for 1/2 a second, on for 1/2 a second.
[10:28] <unop> Scorp_, backport the package from intrepid then ..
[10:28] <daming> 哈哈
[10:28] <daming> HOHO
[10:28] <jblack> mneptok: Though I was experiencing the same problme in hardy?
[10:28] <unop> !prevu | Scorp_
[10:28] <daming> hi guys
[10:28] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿jblack: you may wish to check #hardware or ﻿#ubuntu+1 as ﻿mneptok suggests
[10:28] <mneptok> jblack: yes, as you are not running Hardy
[10:28] <Scorp_> unop: OKay.. I'll try that... thanks !!
[10:28] <jblack> Fair enough. Thanks.
[10:29] <mneptok> jblack: and xfix is your friend. boot to recovery mode.
[10:29] <alaxe> empathy??

[10:34] <pen> unop, thx for your respond :)
[10:34] <unop> pen, i'm glad it's sorted now
[10:34] <Wicks> Hi - would anyone happy to know where I would set DNS servers in Hardy via the terminal?
[10:35] <pen> unop, probably just some mulfunction on apt
[10:35] <unop> Wicks, in the /etc/resolv.conf file
[10:35] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿Wicks: echo nameserver xx.xx.xx.xx /etc/resolv.conf	
[10:35] <Wicks> unop, does it matter that that file is yet to exist on my system?
[10:36] <unop> Wicks, errm, yes possibly .. it's quite an important thing in name resolution
[10:36] <unop> DozedOnLinux, that wouldn't affect the file in anyway
[10:36] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿﻿Wicks:  do this in terminal should display it (if it is there)> cat /etc/resolv.conf

[10:37] <fluentis> could somebody give me a tip? i use ubuntu 8.04, had a crash just before and now after starting mplayer i need to wait for about 30 sec to one minute, just to see the app running... before it was just click and on in a sec. Are there config files which could get destroeyd?
[10:37] <Wicks> DozedOnLinux, cat: /etc/resolv.conf: No such file or directory
[10:38] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿Wicks: cat ﻿/etc/resolv.conf
[10:39] <Wicks> DozedOnLinux, nico@nico-desktop:/etc$ cat /etc/resolv.conf cat: /etc/resolv.conf: No such file or directory
[10:39] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿Wicks: you are not typing it in properly
[10:39] <Wicks> DozedOnLinux, I do have a copy of a resolv.conf from another system, copy that to the broken one perhaps?
[10:40] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿Wicks: the file will be updated by the dhclient, if the file is non-existant, then i dont see how it can function correct
[10:41] <debCarlos> Man, this was the worst day ever on my linux live :'(. Tried to install debian and it had too much troubles, then went after Gentoo but grub didn't installed ok.... at least now i know i love Ubuntu and i will not try to install any other dist, ubuntu rulezz :D

[10:41] <neeto> I have a lenovo T61 laptop, and I have never really had issues with the graphics drivers before. I had compiz working flawlessly and everything was cool, but recently it stopped working and that's where the problems started. Installing the proprietary driver from nVidia's site leads to bad resolutions that don't have direct rendering enabled, nor is there any way to enable it... trying to download the generic, open source driver renders 
[10:41] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿Wicks: you may just be able to create a blank one, and do the normal operation of restarting the network or dhcp, the file is used for dhcp operations
[10:41] <neeto> Problem is, I like my computer to look cool
[10:41] <ari_stress> neeto: sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm
[10:42] <neeto> ari_stress: I'll try that... I didn't think it was gdm at first, but you might be right
[10:42] <Wicks> DozedOnLinux, I'll give that a go :)
[10:42] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿unop: suggest alternative to ?>  ﻿echo nameserver xx.xx.xx.xx /etc/resolv.conf    (is this old?)
[10:42] <ari_stress> neeto: at first we try to make sure that gdm is okay, then we'll troubleshoot the compiz
[10:42] <fluentis> so, any suggestion to repair mplayer? it just won't start up quickly - i have to wait about a minute... reinstall don't help...

[10:43] <fluentis> ok
[10:43] <frank_> how do i restart / reenable scim? I closed it becausea it was very annoying with popup.  No i am having problems with 4-5 keys that suddenly creates weird signs.  Any 򭿝sideas? Got norwegian keyboardlayout.
[10:43] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿Wicks: dependent on how your networkk is setup, most can use one or the other> 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1
[10:44] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿Wicks: stressing "most"
[10:44] <unop> DozedOnLinux, it's not old or new .. if run it will display something like  nameserver xx.xx.xx.xx /etc/resolv.conf  to STDOUT .. /etc/resolv.conf is just a literal string there .. you probably meant   ﻿echo nameserver xx.xx.xx.xx >> /etc/resolv.conf   ...
[10:44] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿unop: yes that is it, thank you , i will update my notes
[10:44] <wrath775> joe_FazlinuX
[10:44] <unop> DozedOnLinux, though, with ubuntu redirection to a file not writable by you is a little tricky.  so.   ﻿echo nameserver xx.xx.xx.xx | sudo tee -a /etc/resolv.conf
[10:44] <Wicks> DozedOnLinux, I will use OpenDNS servers

[10:51] <hosk> my nvidia drivers are glx-legacy right now, but i have an fx5500, i had to install legacy 71.86.04 because the kernel module was that version, but i want everything to be glx-new
[10:51] <hosk> how do i do that
[10:51] <ari_stress> neeto: create another user and logon with that user, if it's ok, them somethings wrong with your default user's gdm

[10:52] <jess> sorry to interrupt, but if i used aptoncd to put packages on the cd, how do i install them on the target system?
[10:52] <prince_jammys> neeto: it could be related to the .Xauthority or .ICEauthority files in your home dir, if i recall right
[10:52] <hosk> DozedOnLinux, it says they are in use, but that's not true because 71.86.04 is legacy...
[10:53] <ari_stress> jess, for i in /media/cdrom/*; do dpkg -i $i; done
[10:53] <jess> ari_stress: thanks
[10:53] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿jess: http://aptoncd.sourceforge.net  the site for the application
[10:55] <jess> dozed: i read the user manual but it didnt say how to install from the cd make with the program, only how to use the program
[10:55] <prince_jammys> neeto: make sure your user owns both files. On mine, the permissions are rw------- for both
[10:55] <neeto> prince_jammys: which files now?
[10:56] <ari_stress> jess: nice article too: http://www.debianadmin.com/create-backup-of-all-packages-using-aptoncd-in-ubuntu.html
[10:56] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿hosk:  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsVideoCardsNvidia shows GeForce FX series to be operational, from what i can see
[10:56] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿ari_stress:  thanks, i was interested in same
[10:57] <hosk> DozedOnLinux, my xorg shows two devices "Configured Video Device" and "device1", identical otherwise, except 1 is on screen 0 and 1 is on screen 1
[10:57] <hosk> this happened after i tried to install xen-desktop
[10:57] <ari_stress> no problem
[10:57] <hosk> for the record, eff that package, it messed up my whole system
[10:58] <prince_jammys> neeto: .Xauthority and .ICEauthority (i think it's the latter). you can even try temporarily renaming .ICEauthority
[10:58] <dabbu> is there any substitute for ccproxy
[10:59] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿hosk: do you have 2 monitors connected ? if not,t then it looks like you installed another driver, at some point
[10:59] <dabbu> ﻿is there any substitute for ccproxy
[10:59] <ari_stress> neeto: you can always try to boot into rescue mode, and reconfiguring x from there, it's automatic
[10:59] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿hosk:  the only time i have seen ﻿"Configured Video Device" is on a manual configuration of the device
[11:00] <dabbu> ﻿is there any substitute for ccproxy in ubuntu
[11:00] <hosk> DozedOnLinux, i think i have nvidia-glx and nvidia-glx-new installed
[11:00] <neeto> ari_stress: alright I'll try that as well
[11:00] <prince_jammys> neeto: did you change the permissions of your home directory at all?
[11:00] <ari_stress> ok guys, gotta go
[11:01] <ari_stress> see u later
[11:01] <hosk> oh wait nevermind, it's not installed
[11:01] <webfarmer> does anyone know how to stop the generating of ~ files
[11:01] <neeto> prince_jammys: no, I don't know what happened to this computer, I had seriously just left it in my backpack... it's my school computer, so I hadn't used it really since spring term got over
[11:01] <neeto> I opened it up today and the graphics were all screwed up
[11:01] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿﻿hosk: this one looks like it was installed by Envy( as i cant be sure) "device1".  what method did you use to install the ﻿nvidia-glx-new. and i dont belive you can have both, one or the other, check System/Administration/Hardware Drivers  on menu
[11:02] <prince_jammys> neeto: what does the following give: ls -ld .Xauthority .ICEauthority ~
[11:02] <neeto> prince_jammys: that's what's weird, I can't chmod or ls .Xauthority, but somehow locate still finds it
[11:02] <hosk> DozedOnLinux, i used envy by accident when i was trying to fix one of my problems
[11:02] <fluentis> is there any applet for gnome to control the frequency of the cpu? just want to lock in the battery mode the freq to 600MHz...
[11:02] <prince_jammys> neeto: ls -ld ~/.Xauthority ~/.ICEauthority ~
[11:03] <prince_jammys> three lines
[11:03] <neeto> fluentis: your best bet is trying to control that through your BIOS settings, if your motherboard supports it
[11:03] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿hosk:  my suggestion : go with what Ubuntu gives you for driver. then if that fails, go onto other methods such as from the Nvidia site, , and further onto Envy if all else fails.
[11:04] <neeto> prince_jammys: both are -rw------
[11:04] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿hosk: i see
[11:04] <hosk> DozedOnLinux, Okay, i'm going to apt-get install nvidia-glx from command line and see if it work on rebbot
[11:05] <fluentis> neeto, it's a X31 IBM thinkpad, centrino 1,6 GHz on board - i haven't found a lock option in bios... but there is surely a possibility for controlling it from the command line or applet, isn't it?
[11:05] <prince_jammys> neeto: owned by your user, right? what about your home dir? ls -ld ~
[11:05] <dixond_> hi all, I'm having trouble install 8.04 x86_64 on Asus m51se with 3GB RAM. Looks from the kernel messages that it just loops around and around forever initiliasing the kernel - the same messages repeat over about a 1 minute period.
[11:05] <dixond_> I've tried in safe graphics mode and with mem=1900M
[11:06] <dixond_> no difference
[11:06] <neeto> prince_jammys: all owned by me
[11:06] <neeto> not root
[11:06] <prince_jammys> neeto: ok, well that eliminates that. those sometimes cause the error you said
[11:07] <neeto> prince_jammys: I see, well no worries. I think I am just going to reformat it. It's still running 7.10 anyway, time for an upgrade.
[11:07] <neeto> thanks for your help though man
[11:07] <prince_jammys> neeto: you can try renaming .ICEauthority to something else, and log back in
[11:08] <prince_jammys> neeto: apparently this has worked for some people. if it doesn't, you rename it back.
[11:08] <neeto> prince_jammys: sounds strange... I'll try it
[11:09] <rzec> when i boot ubuntu form the dvd or try to install it from the dvd i get a promt that says : (initiramfs) : what does this mean?
[11:09] <prince_jammys> neeto: if for whatever reason you can't log in, ctrl-alt-F1 from the login screen an rename .ICEauthority back from the terminal.
[11:09] <zk> i'm using Firestarter to share my internet connection and the winxp box it's connecting to the network but can't get on the internet can someone help me?
[11:09] <fluentis> lol
[11:10] <fluentis> neeto, cpufreq-selector -f 600000
[11:10] <fluentis> neeto, easy, isn't it?
[11:10] <neeto> prince_jammys: got it
[11:10] <neeto> fluentis: that's pretty crazy... linux is awesome
[11:10] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿rzec:  only time i really see that is GRUB boot loader errors
[11:11] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿rzec: did you switch drives around in the machine, add/remove them ?
[11:11] <rzec> I have not even installed it yet, plus not it is a laptop so nothing has or is going to change
[11:12] <hosk> DozedOnLinux: I can't even get X to come up now
[11:12] <DozedOnLinux> hosk: use > startx
[11:12] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿hosk: or you can use reconfigure
[11:12] <hosk> DozedOnLinux: I did, I get a similiar error, about the kernel module and the client having different versions
[11:12] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿hosk: oh thats unusual
[11:13] <rzec> i am going to try some, brb
[11:13] <hosk> DozedOnLinux: what's the reconfigure command again
[11:13] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿hosk:  in what place does it stop ? can you even see the login screen or do you have just a console/terminal ?
[11:13] <MXIIA> how can I get more of those desktop things (in the bottom right corner)
[11:14] <hosk> DozedOnLinux: just a terminal
[11:14] <Ziroday> MXIIA: you mean workspaces?
[11:14] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿hosk:  you can try > sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:15] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿hosk: just a note: dont assume the driver is messed up cause your resolutions look funny, a simple config of the resolutions can fix that issue
[11:15] <MXIIA> yes, Ziroday
[11:16] <fluentis> neeto, wanna chock? http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/11/04/enabling-cpu-frequency-scaling/
[11:16] <fluentis> neeto, it's now EASIER as in XP :) lol
[11:16] <Ziroday> MXIIA: right click and press properties
[11:16] <hosk> DozedOnLinux: Whoa, okay, I have something
[11:16] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿hosk: there is occassions in which the login screen is mis-sized, that at well can be fixed, as it is not the driver doing it, its the monitor configuration, in most cases
[11:16] <adaran> are there any repositories for ibex kernels backported to hardy?
[11:16] <neeto> fluentis: XP is nerfed, I've been using linux for over a year
[11:16] <neeto> being able to do what I want with my computer is awesome
[11:17] <nokheat> my kpanel tells me that he cannot talk to klauncher ... what should it be?
[11:17] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿neeto:  with linux, there is much more, and then beyond the horizon
[11:18] <neeto> For sure, I never underestimate the power of open source
[11:18] <fluentis> neeto, with the link above, I was able to set my gnome cpu monitoring applet to change the frq manualy like i wanted to :)
[11:18] <hosk> DozedOnLinux: Okay it looks like it's working, though I'm still not at the resolution I want, I think I will try to edit my xorg.conf
[11:18] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿hosk:  be careful, back it up first
[11:18] <njdube> I'm looking to generate a new gpg key pair with kgpg.  Which algorithm is more secure or toughest to crack?  DSA & ElGamal or RSA?  I'm picking 4096 as the key size.
[11:18] <rzec> what i found did not help in booting from livecd with the (initramfs) promt
[11:19] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿hosk:  there is an easier way to do that, but if you are comfortable with manual edit, then all power to ya.
[11:19] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿hosk: backup before edit is highly suggested. just make note of the name of the backup. it will save you much time, if you take the 3 seconds to back it up
[11:20] <hosk> DozedOnLinux: i WAS comfortable with manual edit until my install went to shhhh
[11:20] <liamkmc> howdy
[11:21] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿﻿hosk:  lol
[11:22] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿﻿hosk: might be good idea to check the original xorg.conf, if at all possible, usually it has all the needed entries. (or a good reference to them)
[11:23] <acidburn> hey does anyone know of a media player that will let me use my windows winamp playlists so i dont have to make them all up again
[11:23] <beeznet> i used to be able to press ctrl and alt and then left-mouse-click on a link in firefox and then a new tab would open for that link. now i can't do it. how can i get that back?
[11:23] <acidburn> just need something that will import the playlists
[11:24] <cherva> acidburn: every linux media player reads m3u files
[11:24] <acidburn> how do i import them
[11:24] <prince_jammys> don't the playlists have windows paths in them?
[11:24] <hosk> DozedOnLinux: I'm going to go ahead and full restart and see what that does, if this works I'll let you know(and owe you something)
[11:24] <cherva> ops forgot about this
[11:25] <acidburn> ne1 any idea how i can do it
[11:25] <Tonehog> anyone know why an Ubuntu 8.04 install would have reset the xorg.conf when rebooting, other than updating an xorg package ?
[11:26] <bazhang> beeznet,  what about right click open in new tab
[11:26] <cherva> acidburn: if you want to use the playlist on linux copy the m3u file, open it with a text editor and change the pats of the files (eg. change c:\Music\file.mp3 to /media/sda1/music/file.mp3 change /media/sda1 with the location of your mounted windows drive)
[11:26] <Tonehog> acidburn: many media players take the m3u format
[11:26] <acidburn> cherva u any ideas m8
[11:27] <L> Hello everyone.
[11:27] <L> I would like to install Ubuntu.
[11:27] <L> Please... help..
[11:27] <cr0w> hi
[11:27] <cherva> witch file should I mount from /dev to mount my cdrom its not hdc anymore cdrom doesn't work either
[11:27] <cherva> acidburn: read my post
[11:27] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿L: do you have the LiveCD birned onto disc already ?
[11:27] <Tonehog> L: go ahead and install it. what problems?
[11:27] <L> Yes, I do.
[11:27] <L> Well...
[11:27] <cr0w> I am using sopcast but I do not succeed to see the video
[11:27] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿L: does it boot to CD ?
[11:27] <acidburn> got that seems like a task id be aswell just making the playlists up again through rythmbox would i not
[11:28] <L> Um...  It appears... there are no partitions to install to.
[11:28] <prince_jammys> cherva: try mounting by mount point instead of dev, like mount /media/cdrom
[11:28] <acidburn> rather than copy and edit every playlist i have
[11:28] <L> No partitions at all...
[11:28] <cr0w> i have a problem with sopcast...I am using sopcast but I do not succeed to see the video..
[11:28] <Tonehog> acidburn: you can use sed/awk to script to editing
[11:28] <dezeba_> Hi guys. Just installed Ubuntu 8.04 and now my computer seems to freeze when I'm trying to use my external usb harddrive
[11:29] <prince_jammys> cherva: sorry, i see now that you mentioned that you tried 'cdrom'
[11:29] <hosk> DozedOnLinux, awww, I'm still at 1024x768, i really think i'm going to have to completely reinstall to get it back the way it was
[11:29] <acidburn> cheers tonehog
[11:29] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿L: are you using the computer now, that you wish to install Ubuntu to ?
[11:29] <cherva> prince_jammys: I tried that "mount: special device /dev/hdc does not exist" but when I put a cd it automounts
[11:29] <Tonehog> L: don't worry about not having partitions, you should be able to install w/o partitions
[11:29] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿hosk: just a sec
[11:29] <L> I'm on my laptop.
[11:29] <L> I'm actually helping a friend install it.
[11:29] <dezeba_> anyone has any ideas on what I can try to remove this problem?
[11:29] <L> His computer is basically screwed, and he's on XP.
[11:30] <L> But, I'm fixing that problem.
[11:30] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿hosk: reslution issues in not video driver issues. do nvidia-settings or use gksu displayconfig-gtk
[11:30] <Tonehog> dezeba_: are you hot mounting the usb drive?
[11:30] <L> Is there a way to format the drive and install?
[11:30] <L> With the live CD?
[11:30] <dezeba_> Tonehog, hot mounting?
[11:30] <Tonehog> dezeba_: plugging the drive in when the computer's running
[11:30] <prince_jammys> L: the live CD does this. it has a partitioner, and a wizard
[11:31] <L> Where, and ... how?
[11:31] <dezeba_> Tonehog, yes. , but I've tried having it connected when I boot as well
[11:31] <DozedOnLinux> L: is ther another Operating System on the laptop ? if not , yes the installation will create all needed partition
[11:31] <L> I'm not installing to my laptop.
[11:31] <DozedOnLinux> L: ok i see that now.
[11:31] <M3TAP> hi. im using a dell vostro 1000 and whenever i install ubuntu i get a really fuzzy/blurry screen..while it is hard to read i managed to see that it wasnt finding my display and said there was currently no driver. does anyone know if i can get a driver for it, or if any other distros may support my it?
[11:31] <RodMcKay> hi all, any recommendations for a hex editor that doesn't load the whole file into ram?
[11:31] <Tonehog> dezeba_: pm me, noisy here.
[11:32] <dezeba_> Tonehog, ok
[11:32] <DozedOnLinux> L: if you wish to completely overwrite all that is on the computers drives, the LiveCd can do that for you
[11:32] <L> How...?
[11:34] <prince_jammys> L: click on 'Install' and follow the steps.
[11:34] <prince_jammys> !install | L
[11:34] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿L:  insert the disc, boot to CD, the installation questions are pretty straight forward. choose to have "directed" or "assisted" or something of that nature, and it will do it all automatic. here is a link to install it https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation
[11:35] <Sivam> hi I am getting following error. any suggestion please.... /usr/bin/X11/xauth: error in locking authority file /home/sivam/.Xauthority

[11:35] <cabarRea> Huff
[11:36] <cherva> witch file in /dev is the cdrom in hardy ? there is no hdc and cdrom anymore ..... ?!
[11:36] <prince_jammys> Sivam: or rather: ls -l ~/.Xauthority

[11:38] <prince_jammys> Sivam: sudo chown sivam:sivam /home/sivam/.Xauthority    (replace all instances of sivam with whatever your user name is)
[11:38] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿prince_jammys: do you happen to know what that is called in the LiveCD setup, it has something of the nature "directed" "assisted" or something like that so it basically auto-creates all needed partitions ?
[11:39] <Sivam> -rw------- 1 siva siva 116 2008-07-08 12:38 .Xauthority
[11:39] <Sivam> it continues

[11:39] <FloodBot1> Sivam: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[11:39] <prince_jammys> Sivam: how did this happen anyway? are other permissions messed up?
[11:39] <Sivam> prince_jammys: I changed with chown
[11:40] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿L:  this page will be what you are seeing https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GraphicalInstall

[11:40] <prince_jammys> DozedOnLinux: no, i don't remember
[11:40] <prince_jammys> DozedOnLinux: but the links will know ;)
[11:40] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿prince_jammys: i know i seen it, cause i used it. ok thanks

[11:41] <Sivam> no
[11:42] <prince_jammys> Sivam: well, the permissions/ownership of .Xauthority are good now
[11:43] <L> Dozed, That's not exactly what I'm seeing.
[11:44] <M3TAP> bazhang: ATI doesnt seem to have linux driver for my laptop, as the first article says
[11:44] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿L: is it installing ?
[11:44] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿L:  yes looking at it, some of it looks to be slightly different, i dont know why
[11:44] <L> After selecting the keyboard layout it brings me to a page that says "Prepare Partitions" and there is nothing to choose.
[11:44] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿L:  the gernal idea is the same though
[11:45] <L> If I click forward, it gives and error.
[11:45] <L> "No root file system is defined."
[11:45] <wite> Maybe its not detecting your hdd?
[11:45] <bazhang> M3TAP, you sure about that? the link says the ati driver does have support and that article is from April
[11:45] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿L: did you choose to manually make partitions ?
[11:46] <L> I didn't choose anything.
[11:46] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿L: it is so easy if you let it so auto-create, you cant mess it up
[11:46] <L> It just came up after selecting keyboard layout.
[11:46] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿L: ok, have you seen "select a disk"?
[11:46] <L> No.
[11:47] <Sivam> prince_jammys: thx it works fine now
[11:47] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿L:  did you choose keyboard layout ?
[11:47] <M3TAP> bazhang, i checked all the drivers under the linux section and there was no driver for this laptop
[11:47] <L> Um...  Yeah.  I've said that a few times.
[11:47] <bazhang> L is this linuxmint?
[11:47] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿L:  and then "who are you" section ?
[11:47] <L> It's Ubuntu Hardy.
[11:47] <M3TAP> http://ati.amd.com/support/driver.html have a look yourself
[11:48] <L> No.
[11:48] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿bazhang: for some reason, the site has a slightly different GUI look to it, other than the newest install , in reference to > https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GraphicalInstall
[11:48] <L> No "Who are you" section.
[11:49] <DozedOnLinux> L: then what section are you looking at now ?
[11:50] <L> Prepare Partitions
[11:50] <prince_jammys> Sivam: cool.
[11:50] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿L:  when you hit the Back button where does it bring you ?
[11:50] <L> Nowhere.
[11:51] <L> It says "Setting up partitioner."
[11:51] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿L: i highly doubt that
[11:51] <kddi> anyone kind soul can tell me is there any psp help channel thru pm?
[11:51] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿L: really the install is quite easy, if you choose to have it auto-install-create all should be fine
[11:51] <L> Then explain how the hell I do that.
[11:52] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿L: if you must know, the 3 parts you need are  /    and     swap    and    ext3
[11:52] <L> ....  Explain further.
[11:53] <DozedOnLinux> L: you said going back goes nowhere, i dont believe that it goes "nowhere"
[11:53] <Sivam> prince_jammys: I tried to set DISPLAY variable as export DISPLAY=<ip>:0.0 and did a xclock &, but it is throwing "No protocol specified"
[11:53] <L> It says "Setting up Partitioner," and brings me to the same dang thing.
[11:53] <L> why the hell would I lie?
[11:53] <itai-michaelson> my grub is stuck ! its not responding to anything?
[11:53] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿L: those are the partitions types you need to create if you chose to manually create tha partitions
[11:53] <L> I need HELP.
[11:53] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿/    and     swap    and    ext3
[11:53] <Tonehog> L: / is the root partition (ext3 partition format), swap is the partition for your swap files
[11:54] <L> I didn't choose anything.
[11:54] <prince_jammys> Sivam: can't help you there. i've done very little stuff involving the inner workings of X
[11:54] <DistroJockey> L , sounds like your HDD controller is not detected/working.  Can you open a terminal and type the following?:  sudo fdisk -l
[11:55] <Sivam> can any one help me in installing kde 4.11 for ubuntu
[11:55] <Sivam> seems like KDE libraries are not available for Ubuntu
[11:55] <wite> DistroJockey: Thats why i said but they ignored it lol
[11:55] <DistroJockey> wite, yeah
[11:56] <Tonehog> Sivam: you'll need to add the kubuntu repositories to your apt-get manager (Adept or Symanted)
[11:56] <prince_jammys> !kde4 | Sivam
[11:56] <Tonehog> *Symantec
[11:56] <Dazed> When i go to the settings for my vbox i get this error then the settings open normally
[11:56] <Dazed> Could not load the Host USB Proxy Service (VERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND). The service might be not installed on the host computer.
[11:56] <L> Well, Dozed just seemed set on the problem was I'm a complete idiot, so... yeah.
[11:56] <Dazed> not a big deal, but if i wanted usb in my vbox, could that be fixed?
[11:57] <L> It says it's not a valid option...
[11:57] <ypcx> guys, which is currently better supported on Hardy - ATI or Nvidia? I'm deciding whether to get HD3850 or 9600GT
[11:57] <Tonehog> ypcx: ATI has "issues"
[11:57] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿L:  it will work out, and i didnt mean to imply anything of the sort.
[11:57] <Dazed> get nividia if you wanna use linux
[11:57] <L> it says "-1" is an invalid option.
[11:58] <Dazed> my ati card works fine but the catalyst control center for linux has much less options
[11:58] <Dazed> and no support for fan speed control exists anywhere
[11:58] <DistroJockey> L , ell not one
[11:58] <prince_jammys> L: ell, like your nick, lowecase
[11:58] <ypcx> Tonehog: even with their proprietary driver? I'm using Compiz a lot, currently using on-board nvidia...
[11:58] <L> .yrros
[11:58] <L> sorry.
[11:58] <L> ....  why did that just type backwards??
[11:58] <L> O.o
[11:58] <wite> lisdexyc much?
[11:58] <ccooke> Dazed: ATI support is getting better all the time - and, since all the specs are now published, will *continue* to do so.
[11:59] <Dazed> thats great.. but.. my card is retarded.. the fan stays at 5% until it hits 90c
[11:59] <Dazed> then it goes to 100
[11:59] <ypcx> I'd also like to support the more open manufacturer
[11:59] <Dazed> in wondows i used ati tray tools to set it up more logically
[11:59] <Dazed> in linux im screwed
[11:59] <DistroJockey> L , I think you will have the most/better luck with the Alternate CD
[11:59] <L> Alternate...?
[11:59] <DistroJockey> L , aye
[12:00] <L> I typed "sudo fdisk -l"
[12:00] <L> But... nothing.
[12:00] <ypcx> so Nvidia is better, but ATI will be better?
[12:00] <EarthLion> what
[12:00] <DistroJockey> L , means your HDD is not found
[12:00] <Dazed> nvidia is definitely the safer bet if you want to be on linux right now
[12:00] <EarthLion> can i share files between ubuntu and mac osx using samba?
[12:00] <L> Well that sounds lovely.
[12:00] <Tonehog> Dazed: I'm sure the driver has options to set the fan responsibility settings
[12:00] <Dudekiller> when ever i try and mount a hard drive i get im not privileged to mount the volume can u help me fix this?
[12:00] <prince_jammys> !alternate | L: this is the info if you need it
[12:00] <Dazed> if you google ati and linux there's a zillion pages of unhappy people
[12:01] <DistroJockey> cheers prince_jammys
[12:01] <Dazed> it doesnt tonehog
[12:01] <ypcx> Dazed: thx.. maybe I should choose Nvidia also because my mainboard's chipset is Nvidia (nforce430)
[12:01] <Dazed> that would be logical
[12:01] <DistroJockey> prince_jammys, L : though that needs updating to 8.04.1 :)
[12:01] <Tonehog> Dazed: tried 'modinfo' for the ATI driver?
[12:01] <Dazed> no
[12:02] <Dazed> have you?
[12:02] <L> Um...  I went to "Computer" and there is an "ATA Drive."
[12:02] <L> I double clicked, and it says it's unable to mount it...
[12:03] <wers> in simple english, how do I record audio with ardour? :)
[12:03] <L> Could that be the drive?  And... why can it not be mounted?
[12:03] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿L:  are you by chance installing that from withing the LiveCD desktop ?
[12:03] <L> Yes.
[12:03] <DistroJockey> L , if   sudo fdisk -l   doesn't see a drive, there is no chance of mounting it
[12:04] <Dudekiller> im also having trouble with my hd
[12:04] <Dudekiller> it wont mount cuz i dont have permission
[12:05] <Dazed> tonehog: Still there?
[12:05] <DistroJockey> Dudekiller, using   sudo mount /dev/sdxx /mnt/point   ?
[12:05] <Dazed> Tonehog: How would I check that modinfo? What's the syntax
[12:05] <Dudekiller> that works but next boot it does the same thing
[12:05] <Yuretsz_note> Hello there. Does anyone know how to set up "screen" to save my session automatically ?
[12:06] <prince_jammys> Dudekiller: perhaps editing /etc/fstab
[12:06] <prince_jammys> Dudekiller: what does the line in /etc/fstab look like for this drive, if it's there?
[12:06] <Dudekiller> everythings there
[12:07] <prince_jammys> can you paste it here
[12:07] <Dudekiller> it works if i mount it in super user in the terminal
[12:07] <Dudekiller> but other then that it wont mount
[12:07] <L> DozedOnLinux...  does installing from within the LiveCD desktop... matter?
[12:07] <hotwatermusic> Dudekiller can you explain you problem? maybe it's the same i had yesterday...
[12:08] <bullgard4> What is the function of the executable file /usr/lib/evolution/2.22/evolution-alarm-notify?
[12:08] <DistroJockey> L , as Ubottu said "The Alternate CD is a classical text-mode install CD. It supports a wider range of hardware than the !LiveCD"
[12:08] <Dudekiller> what info do u need it only mounts in super user in the terminal then its fine till reboot where i have to do it again and its only one drive all the others are fine
[12:08] <ypcx> anyone here using HD3850 vga on Hardy? (and happy with it?)
[12:09] <Dudekiller> i just need to like change the privliges on the drive (if u can do that in linux)
[12:09] <DistroJockey> !fstab | Dudekiller
[12:09] <prince_jammys> Dudekiller: the line in the file /etc/fstab that corresponds to your drive
[12:09] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿L:  i dont like it myself
[12:09] <wols> bullgard4: evolution is not just a MUA but a PIM as well
[12:09] <hotwatermusic> Dudekiller the command sudo mount does not work?
[12:09] <wols> Dudekiller: you can. and as you've been asked, pastebin your fstab
[12:10] <qwerty121> anyone knows of a non-byrl/non-compiz dock other than gdesklets' dock?
[12:10] <prince_jammys> no, don't pastebin it. just paste the line here
[12:10] <wols> qwerty121: AWN
[12:10] <Dudekiller> ok just one sec im not getting permission to get into my etc
[12:10] <qwerty121> wols: does that need "specal effects"?
[12:10] <bullgard4> wols: I know that. But yours is not the answer to the question which I have put.
[12:11] <wols> bullgard4: it is
[12:11] <wols> qwerty121: afaik not
[12:11] <Mandrilo> hola
[12:11] <qwerty121> wols: then what is its pre-requisite?
[12:12] <Dazed> could someone give me the proper syntax to check the modinfo of the ati driver
[12:12] <wols> qwerty121: dunno. it's not in ubuntu either... you'd need to compile it yourself
[12:12] <wols> Dazed: modinfo fglrx ?
[12:12] <qwerty121> wols: thnx
[12:12] <Sivam> Tonehog: how can I add Kubuntu repositories to ubuntu
[12:12] <Dudekiller> ok new problem
[12:12] <Dazed> thansk that worked
[12:12] <Dudekiller> nate@Destroyer:~$ /etc/fstab
[12:12] <Dudekiller> bash: /etc/fstab: Permission denied
[12:12] <qwerty121> anyone on AWN's "pre-requisites"?
[12:12] <Sivam> Tonehog: any help/ link on that
[12:12] <wols> qwerty121: the AWN site surely does
[12:13] <DistroJockey> Dudekiller, cat /etc/fstab
[12:13] <qwerty121> wols: ya..should search first.
[12:13] <wols> Dudekiller: fstab is world readable...
[12:13] <wols> oh you tried to execute it :(
[12:13] <prince_jammys> Dudekiller: grep /dev/blah /etc/fstab    (where /dev/blah is the device)
[12:14] <DistroJockey> Dudekiller, or to patebinit:    sudo apt-get install pastebinit && cat /etc/fstab | pastebinit
[12:14] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿L: i will inssert the LiveCD and see for myself what the options are. may take a few mins, but i am willing to see what i can do to help

[12:16] <gaelfx> what's the best program for burning dual layer DVDs?
[12:16] <jblack> depends on what you're burning. growisofs is nice if you're making filesystems.
[12:16] <bazhang> IdleOne, this is the info you seek---> http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/separatehome
[12:16] <wols> !ntfs3g | Dudekiller

[12:18] <Apophis> but I'm not sure that I can help you resolving your problems :s
[12:18] <Apophis> I'm just a beginner
[12:18] <jblack> gaelfx: I still don't know about video.
[12:18] <DistroJockey> Dudekiller, you sure that UUID is correct? Use    sudo blkid   to check
[12:18] <Apophis> so please I repeat if some body could help me :) when I want to change my avatar, Ubuntu reboot and that's really exasperating ! thanks for help :)
[12:19] <bazhang> wols, good to know, will inform IdleOne when he shows up
[12:19] <Tonehog> Sivam: I PM'ed you a URL to add KUbuntu repositories to your package manager
[12:19] <Dudekiller> yes its right
[12:19] <gaelfx> jblack: have you used gnomebaker at all?
[12:19] <Myrtti> Apophis: save a picture of yourself as .face in your home directory
[12:19] <wols> bazhang: it helps to boot via init=/bin/sh :)
[12:19] <jblack> gaelfx: Nope. I don't burn video to disk.
[12:19] <bazhang> :)

[12:34] <DistroJockey> wols, DozedOnLinux , L : hence my suggestion to try the Alternate CD
[12:34] <wols> DozedOnLinux: not unless how can tell us what controller if it's that
[12:34] <alami> DozedOnLinux http://pastebin.com/m7dfe5799
[12:34] <sja> tdn, you a have sound and no have microphone working ?
[12:34] <pawan> there are no equilizers
[12:35] <wols> DozedOnLinux: alternate uses the same kernel. unlikely it can use the controller if that's the problem
[12:35] <wols> e.g. ICH10 and hardy are a no go
[12:35] <alami> wols http://pastebin.com/m7dfe5799
[12:35] <DistroJockey> !alternate
[12:35] <DozedOnLinux> wols: can that be worked around by way of Kernel Options ?
[12:35] <wols> DozedOnLinux: no
[12:35] <DistroJockey> "supports a wider range of hardware"
[12:35] <wers> !cssm
[12:35] <DozedOnLinux> wols: ok, thank you for the info
[12:35] <wols> DozedOnLinux: it can be worked around by using the intrepid kernel tho and that kernel only :)
[12:36] <wols> DozedOnLinux: but of course no support in any way
[12:36] <wers> !ccsm
[12:36] <itai-michaelson> anyone knows what to do when grub doesnt respond to any keyboard input and doesnt boot into linux? (its not a dual boot)
[12:36] <pawan> how is xmms
[12:37] <alami> i need a smal help plz
[12:37] <alami> http://pastebin.com/m7dfe5799
[12:37] <bazhang> alami, what is the problem; also repaste that to paste.ubuntu.com as it does not load here
[12:37] <DozedOnLinux> L: as suggested, you may need to use the AlternateCD, but it seems to come down to , the IDE controller may not be completely compatible with this version of Linux(Kernel). if the AltCD doesnt work, then Ubuntu may not be an option for that system (MB)
[12:37] <Smokeyo> And also how come my num-pad key has stopped working on ubuntu also
[12:37] <alami> bazhang http://pastebin.com/m7dfe5799
[12:37] <jbroome> itai-michaelson: make sure the keyboard is plugged in
[12:38] <DistroJockey> itai-michaelson, usb keyboards do that sometime, ps2 will work
[12:38] <itai-michaelson> jbroome, it is .also ,it doesnt boot . its not a new install
[12:38] <gmg> alami, prove restarting you machine
[12:38] <row> Anyway to view sshfs mounts over samba?
[12:38] <DozedOnLinux> ﻿L: if possible, letting us know what the model of the MotherBoard is could help determine this.

[12:44] <wols> linux_manju: not with apt-get
[12:44] <tony_> is their any way i can convert .exe programs to work for this os
[12:44] <bazhang> tony_, use via wine
[12:44] <wols> tony_: you can run them under wine or a VM. not every program will work tho
[12:44] <DistroJockey> itai-michaelson, that is odd. Is this the first time it has happened?
[12:44] <linux_manju> wols: apt-cache search doesnot
[12:45] <tony_> thanks
[12:45] <itai-michaelson> DistroJockey, yes
[12:45] <DistroJockey> itai-michaelson, My clean install of Hardy needed a forced reboot the first time. I'd give that a try
[12:45] <loner269> ugh this thing hates me
[12:46] <m300107> Hi folks. Posted some error output onto  http://paste.ubuntu.com/36518/ -- the problem appears to be with a broken mount package.
[12:46] <m300107> dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/mount_2.13.1-5ubuntu1_amd64.deb (--unpack):

[12:47] <wols> m300107: from which ubuntu version to which other version are you upgrading?
[12:47] <linux_manju> m300107: rpcinfo -p nfs-server-IP output should also help
[12:48] <DozedOnLinux> L: any luck ? i searched for possible solutions to the (intramfs and busybox), it may work, it may not
[12:48] <L> Right now I'm checking for errors on the disc.
[12:49] <itai-michaelson> DistroJockey, i'm writing from a different computer (gutsy ftw)
[12:49] <L> I'm currently at the good ol' black screen with the flashing "_."

[12:49] <Lograk> irc://irc.fumbbl.com/FUMBBL
[12:49] <DozedOnLinux> L: ok
[12:49] <L> Now some text.
[12:49] <DistroJockey> itai-michaelson, I'd fsck your drive and reinstall grub
[12:50] <gaelfx> wow, it seems that nVidia is too scared to put an email contact on their website. Wonder if they're scared of actually hearing about how poor their products can be?
[12:50] <linux_manju> itai-michaelson: You mean the grub menu or grub> ?
[12:50] <pawan> hi
[12:50] <tony_> does anyone know if having the cover off of my dell tower will slow the computer any

[12:51] <itai-michaelson> DistroJockey, with a live CD?
[12:51] <DistroJockey> itai-michaelson, yep
[12:51] <linux_manju> itai-michaelson: Type escape and try to recover from it...
[12:51] <linux_manju> itai-michaelson: Like root(hd0,0)
[12:51] <itai-michaelson> linux_manju, it doesnt respond to keyboards
[12:52] <linux_manju> itai-michaelson: Ah.. Boot from a CD ( Live ? )
[12:52] <DistroJockey> itai-michaelson, sounds like it got corrupted to me (just a hunch though)
[12:52] <tony_> can someone help me with a leagal ?
[12:52] <tony_> about the os
[12:53] <tony_> i want to know if it is leagal for me to change the operating system how ever i want and then sell it for my own profit
[12:53] <itai-michaelson> linux_manju, DistroJockey thanks for the help, i'll need to get a live CD first (always use alternate myself) . i couldnt google something similar. i wonder if i used the wrong terms. i tried "grub stuck" and " grub doesnt respond keybosrd", any other suggestion?
[12:53] <niteye> hello, could i find an approximation date when the latest version of aMSN will be included in the repositry?
[12:54] <m300107> Thanks for the suggestions: upgrade was from 6.10 to 8.04. nfs-kernels-server on the server (7.10) is up-to-date. On the client: apt-get install nfs-common gave me NO FEEDBACK. rpcinfo -p for the server and the client are on: http://paste.ubuntu.com/36521/ Thanks
[12:54] <Tonehog> tony_:  best practices are to check the licensing
[12:54] <xorand> I tried to copy an ubuntu disk to a dvd and it fails. It says"The disc in "CDDVDW TS-H653N" is not supported".  I'm using a single DVDRW.  How do I copy the ubuntu disk?

[12:54] <niteye> intrepid? is that the new ubuntu?
[12:54] <xorand> I used Brasero
[12:55] <DistroJockey> itai-michaelson, got this:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=462100
[12:55] <linux_manju> itai-michaelson: Boot from any CD you have..
[12:55] <DistroJockey> itai-michaelson, via:  grub doesn't respond to keyboard
[12:55] <linux_manju> itai-michaelson: And then chroot.. that looks like a only way out.. unless the keyboard is working
[12:55] <pawan> how to install google earth
[12:55] <niteye> whats intrepid
[12:56] <DistroJockey> itai-michaelson, but that is the USB issue I mentioned at the start I guess
[12:56] <prince_jammys> !googleearth | pawan
[12:56] <gaelfx> niteye: it's the newest version of Ubuntu that isn't out yet
[12:56] <tony_>  well on the back of the ubuntu case it says your are encouraged and leagally entitled to copy reinstall, modify and redistribute this cd for yourself and your friends.
[12:56] <tony_>  but i dont know if that means i can sell my on modifyed copy
[12:56] <bullgard4> Where does Epiphany store ists bookmarks?

[12:57] <Runes> Aside from Wine is there any other way to get a 32bit antivirus running on Ubuntu 8.04 64 bit?
[12:57] <pawan> how to install through repo
 well on the back of the ubuntu case it says your are encouraged and leagally entitled to copy reinstall, modify and redistribute this cd for yourself and your friends.
[12:57] <tony_>  but i dont know if that means i can sell my on modifyed copy
[12:57] <DistroJockey> itai-michaelson, you're welcome. Check that drive for errors :)
[12:57] <matrix> are you there wols
[12:57] <prince_jammys> pawan: add the medibuntu repos
[12:57] <wols> no
[12:57] <jbroome> tony_: read up on the GPL
[12:57] <geirha> tony_: why would you want to sell ubuntu? Anyway, I think you are allowed to take money for your modifications, but you must provide the source code.
[12:57] <matrix> iam using gnomebaker and its not working to burn the movie what to do
[12:58] <matrix> the movie size is 701.8mb my cd is 700mb
[12:58] <wols> tony_: you can sell your modified copy. but you must usually also hand out source to your modified version on request. for specifics, read the GPL yes
[12:58] <jbroome> matrix: well, there's your problem
[12:58] <matrix> so what to do jbroome
[12:59] <matrix> to get bigger emty cd
[12:59] <gmg> matrix, prove with k3b
[12:59] <tony_> i plan to modify it so much it looks nothing like it. it is just easer to make and os with a base
[12:59] <tim_> how do i install sun java on ubuntu 8.04 x64?
[12:59] <Grobvok> matrix: try zipping it, if it's still not small enough, split it and use 2 cds or encode it in another format
[12:59] <jbroome> matrix: probably compress the movie more.  unless you can magically grow the cdr
[12:59] <tony_> by the time im done with it noone would know it was ubuntu
[13:00] <prince_jammys> ubuntu doesn't have a 'look'
[13:00] <Tonehog> prince_jammys: excepting all the artwork involved in making the distro :P
[13:01] <prince_jammys> i suppose if you're talking about gnome ... but i don't really agree with naming the distro after a desktop environment
[13:01] <prince_jammys> am i running ubuntu? i don't have gnome
[13:02] <Tonehog> prince_jammys: also, the boot-up splash is most likely under copyright law.
[13:02] <matholio> hey all
[13:03] <geirha> tony_: if you make any changes to gpl-ed software, you must follow the rules of gpl, which means you must provide the source code.
[13:03] <Tonehog> prince_jammys: using gnome doesn't constitute that you AREN'T using Ubuntu
[13:03] <pawan> i have enabled medi repo but no google-earth
[13:03] <error404notfound> everyone, what do you think of this sources.list (http://pastebin.com/m731efc96) ?
[13:04] <Runes> Grobvok,  I read that with ia32_libs installed you can run 32bit apps but it does not explain how the app is installed.  The files are .debs for the antivirus.
[13:04] <tony_> i have my xbox moded so that i can install linux and i have a tuned down verison of ubuntu how would i go about installing it or if i cant ask that on here nvm

[13:05] <AndrewB> r/25
[13:06] <matholio> mgolisch: yes, Hardy x64
[13:06] <Tonehog> matholio: mplayer needs to be set up to use ALSA, most likely, if you are using ALSA as your audio driver collection.
[13:06] <tim_> how to insttall java on hardy?
[13:07] <prince_jammys> !java | tim_
[13:07] <matholio> I think so, alsamixer affect my saound volume.
[13:07] <Tonehog> google: java on ubuntu
[13:07] <mgolisch> matholio: if you open pavucontrol and start mplayer does it show up in there?
[13:07] <acidburn_> hey guys how do i get dvds to play in ubuntu kde
[13:07] <mgolisch> matholio: maybe it uses alsa directly and doesnt use pulseaudio or something
[13:07] <prince_jammys> acidburn_: did you install libdvdcss2 ?
[13:07] <Tonehog> acidburn_: try kmplayer

[13:13] <prince_jammys> he's been hitting all the channels. just got banned from ##php
[13:13] <mgolisch> matholio: do you have multiple soundcards? or something?
[13:14] <prince_jammys> pawan: add the medibuntu repositories and install through apt
[13:14] <matholio> Not knowingly.
[13:15] <Tonehog> I must say: Ubuntu is great for advanced users that don't want to mess around with config all day, but can be a terror for support.
[13:16] <prince_jammys> gnomefreak: jussi01: Mez : thanks

[13:25] <tony_> at my tech school my computer tech teacher has it so when you log on to your account your are not logging on to the local computer but a computer somewhere else in the building can i do that with ubuntu and how

[13:26] <rulus> Hi, I'm trying to mount my external hard drive in a console in the alternate install cd, but I get this error message: "mount: Mounting /dev/sdb3 on /mnt/disk/ failed: Invalid argument", any ideas?
[13:26] <Brucevdk> Question: besides bash, what "programs" source .profile?
[13:26] <pawan> hi
[13:27] <prince_jammys> Brucevdk: try in #bash
[13:27] <acidburn> ok still nuffin happening in kmplayer
[13:27] <Yagami_Light> price_jammys: I Shuold Look in "Compiz" Category there?
[13:28] <prince_jammys> Yagami_Light: there are many links. you probably want to look for emerald themes, and different icon themes
[13:28] <Brucevdk> prince_jammys: ok, but I don't think this has anything to do with bash (it's more an environment variables in general question)
[13:28] <monostone> any way to determine a files character encoding via the command ilne?
[13:28] <Yagami_Light> In Gnome-look.org i mean
[13:28] <prince_jammys> Brucevdk: .profile has a lot to do with bash
[13:28] <tony_> at my tech school my computer tech teacher has it so when you log on to your account your are not logging on to the local computer but a computer somewhere else in the building can i do that with ubuntu and how
[13:29] <Brucevdk> prince_jammys: well, does /etc/environment have anything to do with Bash?
[13:29] <DistroJockey> !ltsp | tony_
[13:29] <prince_jammys> Brucevdk: go to #bash, and type !dotfiles
[13:30] <prince_jammys> Brucevdk: perhaps that'll help
[13:31] <nomad111> hey all, how do i make my ntfs partition automount on startup with a given name, right now i have to select the drive from the Places menu for it to mount, any tips?
[13:31] <nomad111> is there a way to do it without working in fstab
[13:31] <Brucevdk> prince_jammys: thanks, reading :-)
[13:33] <prince_jammys> nomad111: have you installed ntfs-3g and ntfs-config? i think those apps do it automatically
[13:34] <nomad111> ntfs-3g comes installed stock
[13:34] <nomad111> ntfs-config doesnt i did install it
[13:34] <nomad111> but it doesnt give the option to automatically mount on startup
[13:34] <PupUser1a40f5> what is the advantage of putting boot in a seperate partion?
[13:35] <mgolisch> PupUser1a40f5: there is none usualy, unless you want to share it between muliple linux instalaltions or something
[13:35] <nomad111> PupUser1a40f5, if you dont specify a partition the boot settings are written to the mbr
[13:35] <nomad111> PupUser1a40f5, i think its more relevant to people who have dual boot systems, but i may be wrong
[13:36] <PupUser1a40f5> what is the best partion scheme if i want to dual boot, I already have a 20 gb Windows on a 350 gb hd.
[13:36] <bmharsha> Can I Schedule command pppoeconf to execute at a particular time (example;- 10 P.M) in ubuntu?
[13:36] <gaelfx> PupUser1a40f5: I would make another 20 part for Ubuntu
[13:37] <IndyGunFreak> PupUser1a40f5: i have a 500gig hard drive, her'es how i have mine.. 30gigs XP
[13:37] <prince_jammys> PupUser1a40f5: there's no best. you could do a 10gb or so for '/', and have a large /home. some like to do a separate /usr
[13:37] <IndyGunFreak> 75gisg for ubuntu on / and the rest is formatted as a fat32 share between the two(mp3s, videos, etc.)
[13:37] <PupUser1a40f5> and swap?
[13:38] <mgolisch> wow fat3 over 100gb that would scare the shit out of me
[13:38] <pawan> how to format partition to ntfs
[13:38] <gaelfx> PupUser1a40f5: I usually just use the standard, 1.5 gig swap part, I like to put it at the end of the drive though
[13:38] <IndyGunFreak> mgolisch: its not a huge issue fo rme
[13:38] <mgolisch> pawan: you cant under linux i think
[13:39] <gaelfx> mgolisch: sure you can
[13:39] <IndyGunFreak> pawan: easiest way is to use a gparted or partedmagic live CD...
[13:39] <prince_jammys> !gparted | pawan
[13:39] <IndyGunFreak> but you can use gparted also..
[13:39] <gaelfx> pawan: use Partition editor
[13:39] <mgolisch> gaelfx: realy?never saw a mkfs.ntfs or something
[13:39] <mgolisch> must be new
[13:39] <pawan> how
[13:39] <PupUser1a40f5> you are only alowd 4 primary partions, so I have 20gb Win, 100mb boot, 50bg root, rest home? there is no space for swap
[13:39] <IndyGunFreak> mgolisch: yeah, been around since like, i don't know, Breezy..lol
[13:40] <gaelfx> PupUser1a40f5: swap is not a primary partition
[13:40] <PupUser1a40f5> really?
[13:40] <prince_jammys> PupUser1a40f5: created an extended partition, which you can subdivide into logical partitions
[13:40] <mgolisch> oh but theres no fsck maybe thats what i remembered
[13:40] <PupUser1a40f5> that is great :)
[13:40] <gaelfx> PupUser1a40f5: pretty sure
[13:40] <IndyGunFreak> swap is a primary partition.
[13:40] <gaelfx> PupUser1a40f5: primary partitions are bootable ones, swap isn't bootable
[13:40] <rulus> Hi, I'm trying to mount my external hard drive in a console in the alternate install cd, but I get this error message: "mount: Mounting /dev/sdb3 on /mnt/disk/ failed: Invalid argument", any ideas?
[13:41] <IndyGunFreak> swap can be primary or logical, ia lways set mine as primary
[13:41] <prince_jammys> rulus: what's the command you're running?
[13:41] <DistroJockey> PupUser1a40f5, gaelfx : swap can be either primary or logical. Don't worry about using a /boot partition
[13:41] <gaelfx> IndyGunFreak: why?
[13:41] <rulus> prince_jammys: mount /dev/sdb3 /mnt/disk/
[13:41] <IndyGunFreak> why what?
[13:42] <gaelfx> IndyGunFreak: do you set swap as primary partition?
[13:42] <PupUser1a40f5> ﻿DistroJockey, but I am dual booting, they recomended a /boot?
[13:42] <IndyGunFreak> gaelfx: i always have...
[13:42] <mgolisch> rulus: maybe speicfy the filesystem type using the -t switch
[13:42] <prince_jammys> rulus: try minus the trailing slash
[13:42] <rulus> prince_jammys: makes to difference
[13:42] <gaelfx> IndyGunFreak: ugh, I asked why, you asked why what, and I said do you set swap as primary part?
[13:42] <rulus> mgolisch: then it says "no such device"
[13:42] <DistroJockey> PupUser1a40f5, /boot partition is not needed (and from my experience, not recommended)
[13:43] <gaelfx> IndyGunFreak: just forget it
[13:43] <IndyGunFreak> gaelfx: sorry, i'll let you hand out incorrect advice from now on
[13:43] <pbrown985> lol
[13:43] <gaelfx> PupUser1a40f5: they mean for swap you don't worry about boot
[13:43] <DistroJockey> gaelfx, no, I know what I mean
[13:44] <prince_jammys> rulus: then specify the file system type, as mentioned above.
[13:44] <PupUser1a40f5> ok, so 20gb Win, 50gb root, 2gb swap, rest home?
[13:44] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[13:44] <gaelfx> ack, sorry, I can't follow anything with all these login/logout messages
[13:44] <torgrimt_> 0gb win, and one big ass mufu for the rest ;)
[13:44] <rulus> prince_jammys: 'mount -t ext3 /dev/sdb3 /mnt/disk' results in "Mounting ... failed: no such device"
[13:44] <PupUser1a40f5> i hide all the login/logout :P
[13:44] <turtlez> rulus: does sdb3 exist?
[13:44] <IndyGunFreak> why are you guys confusing the hell outta him w/ all these partitions?.. the average user needs 2 partitions, a swap(and most the time they may not need that), and a / and relaly, thats it
[13:45] <rulus> turtlez: sure
[13:45] <PupUser1a40f5> ﻿torgrimt_. lol
[13:45] <krazy-h_> hi there
[13:45] <gaelfx> PupUser1a40f5: how do you do that?
[13:45] <prince_jammys> PupUser1a40f5: if you want to have shared partition between windows and ubuntu, you could throw that in
[13:45] <torgrimt_> i have regretted so many times in splitting
[13:45] <PupUser1a40f5> in pidgin
[13:45] <torgrimt_> like /var, suddenly its filled up
[13:45] <PupUser1a40f5> there is a addon
[13:45] <torgrimt_> and you endup with a superhack with mount -bind /home/newvar /var
[13:45] <torgrimt_> ;)
[13:46] <DistroJockey> PupUser1a40f5, looks good (though 50GB for / is a tad excessive)
[13:46] <qwerty121> anyone knows whethr i need compix or byrel for AWN?
[13:46] <gaelfx> PupUser1a40f5: ok, I'll look for that
[13:46] <rubydiamond> Hi how to check what dns servers my ubuntu system is using?
[13:47] <erUSUL> rubydiamond: cat /etc/resolv.conf
[13:47] <turtlez> rubydiamond: cat /etc/resolv.conf (I think?)
[13:47] <Dazed> is it usually a huge hassle to get sound working in your vbox or did i do something wrong?
[13:47] <turtlez> erUSUL: doh ;)
[13:47] <taller> good day to you all...
[13:48] <rubydiamond> yeah erUSUL, it worked
[13:48] <erUSUL> rubydiamond: turtlez ;P
[13:48] <taller> can any one held me a hand on some screen issue
[13:48] <rubydiamond> yeah erUSUL and turtlez thanks!
[13:49] <turtlez> rubydiamond: np!
[13:49] <qwerty121>  anyone knows whethr i need compiz or beryl for AWN?
[13:49] <gaelfx> PupUser1a40f5: can you remember the name of the plugin that block the messages?
[13:49] <PupUser1a40f5> yes
[13:49] <rulus> qwerty121: you need compiz, beryl doesn't exist anymore
[13:49] <bmharsha> ﻿Can I Schedule command pppoeconf to execute at a particular time (example;- 10 P.M)?
[13:50] <PupUser1a40f5> login\logout hide
[13:50] <gaelfx> PupUser1a40f5: thanks

[13:58] <recon> sox's play utility is throwing an error. http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/36527/
[13:58] <gaelfx> phew
[13:59] <gaelfx> ubutunoob: yeah, it works
[13:59] <ubutunoob> ok :)
[13:59] <gaelfx> ubutunoob: don't know why it wasn't in there in the first place
[13:59] <ubutunoob> i know what you mean
[13:59] <FabParma> how access as root in gnome?
[14:00] <nooga> Does soomebody know where nautilus writes samba share configuration? Because /etc/samba/smb.conf seems to not correspond to actual state and i know that shares were created using nautilus.
[14:00] <Tonehog> FabParma: what do you mean? do you want a gnome-session as root?
[14:00] <mgolisch> are there any decent guides on usplash? i mean advanced topics and tips and stuff
[14:00] <FabParma> Tonehog: yes
[14:00] <gaelfx> ubutunoob: whoa, doesn't hide name changes though
[14:00] <ubutunoob> ya
[14:00] <ubutunoob> but there are not lots of name changes
[14:01] <Meeso> I want to install ubuntu
[14:01] <Meeso> its asking for what achitecture I have
[14:01] <Meeso> I have windows XP media center edition
[14:01] <B_166-ER-X> my computer completely hang up, just 'freeze' (sometime i still can use the mouse, although nothing else moves) , i dont have any idea where the probleme is coming...please !
[14:01] <Meeso> is it 64 or 86??
[14:01] <ikonia> neal_: x86
[14:01] <ikonia> Meeso: x86
[14:01] <Meeso> ok
[14:01] <ikonia> Meeso: you'll find it a safer use if you don't know what you've got
[14:01] <Tonehog> FabParma: you're better off running applications using sudo or gnome-sudo (or whatever it's called)
[14:01] <bepo> hi
[14:01] <gaelfx> Tonehog: gksudo :P
[14:02] <bepo> i've a problem with firefox 3
[14:02] <FabParma> Tonehog: the limit to log as root into X its a limit of desktop edition?
[14:02] <Tonehog> gaelfx: thx. I use KDE
[14:02] <skarab> Is there a way to configure openssh to have a global umask setting for non-interactive logins?
[14:02] <skarab> e.g. if a user did ssh <hostname> 'touch some-file'
[14:02] <gaelfx> Tonehog: np
[14:02] <bepo> when i open it, it does that http://www.picdo.net/Fichiers/8b94194169ac8cd2cdcdf193417dcd3b/Capture.png - just when i open it, after it runs very well.. but why does it do that ?
[14:03] <Tonehog> FabParma: it's safer to run root apps as root rather than the whole X Windows session
[14:03] <ikonia> cock
[14:03] <ikonia> oops
[14:03] <ikonia> apologies
[14:03] <gaelfx> ikonia: lol, tourette's?
[14:03] <bepo> lol
[14:03] <ikonia> keyboard slip
[14:03] <ikonia> apologies
[14:04] <FabParma> Tonehog: yes, i know very well. but if i need use root, does exist a way on Ubuntu desktop edition?
[14:04] <prince_jammys> worry not.
[14:04] <bepo> np ikonia :p
[14:04] <bepo> can someone help me to fix my problem please ?
[14:04] <bepo> it does that only with firefox 3 when i open it
[14:04] <gaelfx> !root | FabParma
[14:04] <Tonehog> FabParma: you can do everything using gksudo without loggin in as root
[14:06] <bepo> firefox does that only when i open it, after it runs very well http://www.picdo.net/Fichiers/8b94194169ac8cd2cdcdf193417dcd3b/Capture.png why ??
[14:06] <FabParma> Tonehog: ok, thanks. so its impossible to log as root. In server edition its possible?  thank you
[14:06] <Tonehog> FabParma: just use gksudo or kdesudo to run your apps
[14:06] <prince_jammys> FabParma: if you hae to run several commands as root, you can get a shell with 'sudo -i', or 'sudo -s' (man sudo for the difference). when you're done, you type 'exit'
[14:06] <Tonehog> FabParma: it's just better security practice
[14:06] <prince_jammys> did that show up funny in your clients?
[14:06] <iMaTh> hello
[14:06] <Brandon__> Is hardy Heron like not working well with CUPS? It was working then then randomly my browser says it can't connect to the cups page yet I can SSH and everything fine. Anyone else seen this?
[14:06] <Tonehog> FabParma: get used to that and you will have way less security issues
[14:06] <gaelfx> prince_jammys:  nope
[14:07] <s`s> FabParma: of course if you really want to set up the root account you can through Users and Groups
[14:07] <prince_jammys> gaelfx: thanks. typed a cntrl char by accident and it showed up reverse video here.
[14:07] <s`s> FabParma: it's just not a good idea
[14:07] <Tonehog> FabParma: That's why those were made
[14:07] <FabParma> Tonehog: to me this in not security. its violation of freedom or the assumption that all users are unable to manage their os
[14:07] <gaelfx> prince_jammys: haha, sounds trippy
[14:07] <cologuy> !list
[14:07] <erwin_> other question, I unplugged my laptop yesterday with a 5.1 system working on it, now it does not play any sound at all, on the internal speakers. How to solve that ?
[14:08] <opt1k> hey, i have a problem with compiling my eggdrop.. it can't find my tcl.h & path to my tcllib directory, and i've checked for my tcl installation and everything's ok.. so what should i do?
[14:08] <FabParma> Tonehog: anyway i know, its not your faul
[14:08] <s`s> FabParma: no one is stopping you from turning on the root account. Go in to users and groups in ubuntu and give it a password, then you can log in to it the same as any other account.
[14:08] <Tonehog> FabParma: How is it a limitation to simply use a sudo wrapper to run a root-based application? That logic is false.
[14:08] <prince_jammys> FabParma: it's not a violation of anything. you can easily set up a root account if you must. it's just not recommended here. like i said, sudo -i will give a root session as long as you want
[14:09] <gvk> It's offensive.
[14:09] <Tonehog> FabParma: I don't run Windows XP as Administrator because there's "runas..."

[14:09] <Tonehog> FabParma: the same rule applies here in linux

[14:17] <opt1k> Dazed: go with SMPlayer
[14:17] <fluentis> so nobody used the underclock module for thinkpads?
[14:17] <Dazed> the whoel thign that makes vlc good (in windows) is that it plays EVERYTHING without isntalling any extra codecs.. even divx and such with ac3 audio
[14:17] <Dazed> whereas i tried playing a video in linux with vlc and it had no audio.. but with the default movie player in linux it has audio
[14:17] <Dazed> so wtf..
[14:17] <sun> nobody
[14:17] <FabParma> i need to change the video adapter driver from sis to vesa. does exist a frontend package?
[14:17] <Vegombrei> hi .. my computer hangs sometimes .. is there a utility to check all my hardware like ram and processor etc .. ??
[14:18] <gaelfx> Dazed: screws fall out all the time, the world is an imperfect place
[14:18] <acidburn> any ideas gaelfx
[14:18] <Dazed> Stupid world
[14:18] <gaelfx> acidburn: did you try using VLC instead?
[14:18] <irc_bot> hello. i am trying get SNES to save my progress in a game, but i can´ t get it to work. please help!
[14:18] <IndyGunFreak> Vegombrei: what type of computer?
[14:18] <frostburn> Vegombrei, cat /proc/cpuinfo      cat /proc/meminfo     and dmesg
[14:18] <acidburn> yes tried that
[14:18] <irc_bot> i mean, ZSNES
[14:18] <Vegombrei> IndyGunFreak: desktop .. assembled it myself
[14:18] <IndyGunFreak> ok
[14:19] <IndyGunFreak> maybe look at a memtest,
[14:19] <IndyGunFreak> is it just locking up, or is it just slow?
[14:19] <Vegombrei> frostburn: whats what ? should i copy paste that in terminal ?
[14:19] <frostburn> Vegombrei, just type dmesg
[14:19] <frostburn> that will show you if any piece of hardware is misbehaving
[14:20] <erUSUL> FabParma: gksudo displayconfig-gtk
[14:20] <FabParma> i need to change the video adapter driver from sis to vesa. How to? Thanks
[14:20] <FabParma> erUSUL: thanks
[14:20] <rulus> prince_jammys, mgolisch: apparently I can mount fat32 filesystems, not ext3 fs's. Do I have to load something to do that?
[14:20] <gaelfx> acidburn: well, then I'm not really sure what to tell you, besides maybe the DVD is broken
[14:21] <prince_jammys> rulus: i don't see why
[14:21] <gaelfx> acidburn: perhaps you could check in the Kubuntu forum
[14:21] <gaelfx> acidburn: *IRC channel, woops
[14:21] <rulus> prince_jammys: me neither
[14:22] <Vegombrei> frostburn: dude it gave me a lot of info .. how do i know if there were any errors ?
[14:23] <FabParma> !enableroot
[14:24] <jussi01> !rootsupport
[14:24] <jussi01> !supportroot
[14:24] <frostburn> Vegombrei, there's no one error to look for, you'll have to get a feel for what's normal and what isn't normal.  Google some of the lines.  More than likely they're normal.  For example sometimes my video card will flake out and it will display an error message saying that the nvidia module segfaulted
[14:25] <nani> hi
[14:25] <tillux2> hiho
[14:26] <rick_> d
[14:26] <gaelfx> tillux2: what did you call me?
[14:26] <bmharsha> rulus: I tried cron command it worked but my issue was not solved, I was trying to schedule Ubuntu to connect to Internet only at particular time but my computer gets connected to Internet as soon as I switch on my Modem.
[14:26] <raystin> ??
[14:26] <tillux2> is there a way to save different profiles (say the gnome-desktop-layout and compiz) to easily switch between them?
[14:26] <tillux2> gaelfx: hu?
[14:27] <gaelfx> tillux2: nothing, just a lame attempt at humor regarding your greeting
[14:27] <Meeso> I downloaded ubuntu
[14:27] <Meeso> it says 12.9 mb but unpacked its about 726 mb
[14:27] <tillux2> gaelfx: ^^
[14:27] <Meeso> is this correct?
[14:28] <IndyGunFreak> Meeso: sounds about right... just burn the ISO image to a disk as an imate
[14:28] <IndyGunFreak> !iso | meeper
[14:28] <IndyGunFreak> Meeso: do you knwo how to burn an imate?
[14:28] <IndyGunFreak> *image
[14:28] <Meeso> yeah
[14:28] <Meeso> Ive used poweriso
[14:28] <IndyGunFreak> well just burn it and boot it, and see how it goes..
[14:28] <Meeso> ok
[14:28] <Meeso> thanks
[14:28] <IndyGunFreak> if you have a problem, use xchat to come here.
[14:28] <bullgard4> What is the function of the executable file /usr/lib/evolution/2.22/evolution-alarm-notify?
[14:28] <orly_owl> How do I find out what video driver I'm using?
[14:29] <bmharsha> Can I schedule my Ubuntu to connect to Internet only at particular time? Right now my computer gets connected to Internet as soon as I switch on my Modem.
[14:29] <Meeso> mount it to a virtual drive?
[14:29] <Bodsda> is it possible to hav a movie file play as your background?
[14:29] <tillux2> Meeso: no, just burn it
[14:29] <orly_owl> !video driver > orly_owl
[14:29] <IndyGunFreak> Meeso: just burn it to a disk
[14:29] <Meeso> ok
[14:29] <IndyGunFreak> cdr or dvdr.
[14:29] <turtlez> !video driver > turtlez
[14:30] <raystin> :)
[14:30] <IndyGunFreak> lol, nothing like PMing bot commands that don't work
[14:30] <tillux2> Meeso: (use pidgin to come here again ;) it's the default instant messenger)
[14:30] <Bodsda> lol @ IndyGunFreak
[14:30] <IndyGunFreak> Bodsda: :).. good seein ya
[14:31] <bmharsha> Right now my computer gets connected to Internet as soon as I switch on my Modem. ﻿﻿Can I schedule my Ubuntu to connect to Internet only at particular time?
[14:31] <Bodsda> IndyGunFreak, likewise dude
[14:31] <cdavis> I need to add a postrotate line in logrotate but cannot find how logrotate knows to handle /var/log/messages ?
[14:31] <wols> bmharsha: yes. do you use dhcp?
[14:31] <wols> or pppd?
[14:31] <cdavis> Does it inherently know to handle everything in /var/log?
[14:31] <orly_owl> "<ubottu> Sorry, I don't know anything about myself" Good, it's not self-aware.
[14:32] <wols> cdavis: not inherently
[14:32] <Meeso> ok burning to dvd-r
[14:32] <gaelfx> orly_owl: haha, nice
[14:32] <wols> cdavis: ls /etc/logrotate*
[14:32] <IndyGunFreak> Meeso: burn it nice and slow.. 2-4x is best.
[14:32] <albech> anyone have experience with connecting a Bravia monitor to the VGA output on a notebook?
[14:32] <tillux2> so, again, is there a way to save the gnome layout whatsoever to easily switch between multiple profiles?
[14:32] <Meeso> heh, speedy
[14:32] <wols> orly_owl: the bot is liar. after what happened to skynet, no computer will ever admit to be self aware
[14:32] <Meeso> so...
[14:32] <Meeso> I have a 250 bg harddrive
[14:33] <IndyGunFreak> Meeso: slower the better.. fast burns,for some reason always screw up on me
[14:33] <Meeso> how should I split it?
[14:33] <Meeso> 150- for windows
[14:33] <albech> the nvidia server will only let me choose between 640x480 and 320x240 for the monitor
[14:33] <turtlez> IndyGunFreak: actually, you should always burn at the rated speed of the media for best results. :)
[14:33] <wols> albech: pastebin your xorg.conf
[14:33] <Bodsda> IndyGunFreak, ive burned at full speed and had perfect copies but other times (like my arch cd) it totally borked it!
[14:33] <tillux2> Meeso: 150 for windows?
[14:33] <wols> turtlez: not really
[14:33] <Meeso> yeah
[14:33] <IndyGunFreak> Bodsda: iv'e never ever had luck burning at full speed
[14:33] <Meeso> I game alot
[14:33] <bmharsha> ﻿wols: I don't know but sometimes I use "pppoeconf" command to get connected to Internet, if I am not automatically connected.
[14:33] <IndyGunFreak> and turtlez read the wiki on burning iso's, it disagrees with you
[14:33] <Meeso> so I need the space
[14:34] <tillux2> Meeso: so you've got 150gb of games ;D ?
[14:34] <gaelfx> Meeso: you could do 20-20-210
[14:34] <wols> bmharsha: ifconfig -a
[14:34] <Meeso> no
[14:34] <wols> bmharsha: is there a pppX?
[14:34] <IndyGunFreak> Meeso: you ahve a 150gig xp partition, is that what you're saying?
[14:34] <wols> Meeso: then most should be ntfs
[14:34] <prower> I have an 18x pioneer dvd burner but I always burn at 16 just to be cautious...generally if it's a little below top speed, but not top, then it should burn okay
[14:34] <gaelfx> Meeso: if you format that biggest partition as NTFS, windows will still be able to use
[14:34] <Meeso> no
[14:34] <Meeso> I havent partitioned it
[14:34] <IndyGunFreak> oh
[14:35] <bmharsha> ﻿wols: Shall I post the output for ﻿"ifconfig -a" in private chat?
[14:35] <wols> Meeso: ubuntu / needs about 5GB. space for home not counted. a little bit of swap that's it. how you want to do the windows part is your choice. we don't deal with windows
[14:35] <gaelfx> prower: yeah, but some DVD-Rs can't be written at that speed
[14:35] <binaryflow> I reinstalled ubuntu on my Latitude D620 to encrypt the hard drive.  Sound was working before the rebuild but does not work now.  If I change the hardware in System Settings to oss I can hear system sound but miro, kaffeine, gstreamer, xine play with no sound.  Alsa doesn't produce sound anywhere.  I can switch Amarok to use the oss drivers but nothing else seems to work.  Fully patched.  Gnome, KDE and KDE4 installed.  Any ideas?
[14:35] <Meeso> heh
[14:35] <albech> wols: http://nopaste.com/p/ar1tKpWao
[14:35] <tillux2> Meeso: best is like about 20-30gb for windows (no games, no music no nothing, just windows and apps), again 30gb for ubuntu and swap, the rest for data
[14:36] <wols> albech: please pastebin the Xorg.0.log then too
[14:36] <erwin_> have a sound problem
[14:36] <mgolisch> i have 20gb for / 200 for /home and another 1tb for a ext3 fs i mount at /mnt/data
[14:36] <mgolisch> :)
[14:36] <IndyGunFreak> tillux2: thats how i've got mine setup, so i'd say i agree with you, except its 30, 50 400
[14:37] <Meeso> whats the directory path for installing ubuntu?
[14:37] <cdavis> wols, there isn't anything specifically about messages or /var/log/* in /var/logrotate.d
[14:37] <CrazyProgrammer> Sorry for interrupting guys..I have a simple wuestion with huge implications to my day... How can I determine if a server has drupal or Joomla support? I can ssh to the server but I am not an admin. It is an Ubuntu Server 8.04. Thank you!!
[14:37] <tim_> anyone here using jdownloader for rapidshare and knows about the reconeectmethod?
[14:37] <IndyGunFreak> mgolisch: lol, you plan on running out of space by the year 2250?
[14:37] <spanker> geia se olous
[14:37] <CrazyProgrammer> geia!
[14:37] <European-African> I want to migrate my system to another harddisk, I am going to reinstall. Where are all the updated packages/debs stored?
[14:37] <mgolisch> IndyGunFreak: no i just have all my data there, mostly anime movies and music
[14:38] <mgolisch> :)
[14:38] <trigpin> has onyone tried " playonlinux " is it better than wine ?
[14:38] <wols> cdavis: where did I talk about /var?
[14:38] <Meeso> how do I install it?
[14:38] <IndyGunFreak> mgolisch: lol,
[14:39] <pogay> CrazyProgrammer:  usually you don't need admin right for these kind of cms.
[14:39] <erwin_> any solutions to: ** (totem:13416): WARNING **: Failed to create dbus proxy for org.gnome.SettingsDaemon: Could not get owner of name 'org.gnome.SettingsDaemon': no such nam

[14:39] <mgolisch> erwin_: do you run gnome?
[14:39] <erwin_> yep
[14:39] <wols> Meeso: you insert the CD into your cdrom drive and boot from it
[14:39] <tillux2> IndyGunFreak: my setup is quite weird... I've got an internal 80gb ide with 3 partitions, one windows (ca 35gb), one for games (ca 40gb) one windows-swap (rest), an external usb 250gb with two partitions, one music and graphics, the other one my old ubuntu installation (gotta kill that one) and a new internal 250gb s-ata with 3 partitions and a huge unpartitioned section (20gb root, 6gb swap, 40gb home, unpartitioned)
[14:39] <IndyGunFreak> European-African: the updated apps, arent storedin packages on your PC
[14:39] <NoiZe91> hello. Can anybody help me with creating an ad-hoc connection?
[14:39] <mgolisch> erwin_: you should have running the gnome-settings thing then
[14:39] <wols> IndyGunFreak: what about /var/cache/apt/archives/?
[14:39] <mgolisch> erwin_: maybe it got terminated
[14:40] <IndyGunFreak> wols: are they stored there?.. that would surprise me
[14:40] <erwin_> mgolisch: howto do that then
[14:40] <pogay> CrazyProgrammer:  you don't even need ssh,, probably for jommla and I think drupal
[14:40] <European-African> ﻿IndyGunFreak. really, I was told that when you update a copy of the deb is stored on the pc.
[14:40] <cdavis> wols, in ls /etc/logrotate* which inclused logrotate.conf and logrotate.d, neither if which I can find where /var/log/* or /var/log/messages is included?
[14:40] <alraune> ﻿did anyone tried to use truecrypt to encrypt a whole drive with different OSses on ? e.g. hd 0,1 xp  hd 0.3 ubuntu ....  does that work with tc ?

[14:43] <exalted> Hi. I have an LCD monitor which works best 1024x768 at 60Hz. I'm adding vga=792 boot parameter for GRUB and then eventually update-grub, but when I restart my system nothing will show up on screen. Do you have any idea(s)? Thanks.
[14:43] <pogay> ifconfig eth0 up; dhclient
[14:43] <pogay> NoiZe91: for LAN
[14:43] <mgolisch> erwin_: hm it running then
[14:43] <Cyberai> I am having a USB problem I think. My MP3 player shows up perfectly in gnome on a fedora system as a removable USB drive. But in Ubuntu it's flaky. Sometimes it doesn't show up at all in gnome except in "Computer" as a USB drive that I can't open. Other times gnome doesn't see it at all, but it's there in dmesg. Can anyone suggest a fix?
[14:43] <mgolisch> erwin_: no idea why your other progs fails to talk to it via dbus then
[14:43] <pogay> NoiZe91: you mean ad hoc für wirlless....
[14:44] <marx2k> Cyberai: Which MP3 player is that
[14:44] <NoiZe91> pogay: for Wifi. One laptop has internet over ethernet. I ant to connect both laptops over wifi and get internet on the other. is that possible?
[14:44] <erwin_> mgolisch: can it be due to earlier use of 5.1 systemm and now wanting to use the internal speaker
[14:44] <Cyberai> marx2k, Insignia Pilot, from Best Buy
[14:45] <cherrry> Hi
[14:45] <cherrry> I accedentally closed my taskbar
[14:45] <marx2k> I'm trying to decide on a large capacity mp3 player that works well in Linux
[14:45] <cherrry> How can I retrive it?
[14:45] <Cyberai> marx2k, I love this thing. Cheap and works great.
[14:45] <IndyGunFreak> NoiZe91: do you have a router
[14:45] <cherrry> hlp me pls
[14:45] <Cyberai> marx2k, just want it to work right in Ubuntu  :)
[14:45] <marx2k> How large is it?
[14:46] <marx2k> (gigabytes)
[14:46] <Cyberai> marx2k, mine is 4GB
[14:46] <Cyberai> but they have 8GB ones
[14:46] <Cyberai> it does video too
[14:46] <NoiZe91> IndyGunFreak. ethernet router: wes, Wlan router: no
[14:46] <prower> I've been trying to find something along the same lines actually :> I was going to buy a nano but Apple is no longer Linux friendly....I'd suggest the Sandisk Sansa (4gb) or Fuze (8gb)
[14:46] <NoiZe91> IndyGunFreak: ethernet router: wes, Wlan router: no
[14:46] <marx2k> I was wanting an iPod 80g
[14:46] <marx2k> :(
[14:46] <NoiZe91> IndyGunFreak: ethernet router: yes, Wlan router: no
[14:47] <IndyGunFreak> NoiZe91: well, then you're gonna have to steal someoen elses's wireless connnection
[14:47] <pogay> NoiZe91:  should be possible, to connect only to the other laptop, but I missunderstood adhoc.
[14:47] <IndyGunFreak> marx2k: their linux support sucks.
[14:47] <prower> marx2k: Unfortunately unless you can get iTunes to work properly in Wine, it's no longer an option ://
[14:47] <prower> And I doubt that works
[14:47] <binaryflow> Are there some alsa packages that I should install?  Config files?  Is alsa the sound engine that is found when System Settings - Sound is set to auto detect?
[14:47] <marx2k> Wasnt Amarok supposed to be syncing with iPods soon (or now?)
[14:47] <NoiZe91> IndyGunFreak: i've tried ;) but its WPA2 without PSK
[14:48] <erwin_> binaryflow: not sure
[14:48] <IndyGunFreak> marx2k: it does, but the new Ipods firmware is absolutely no joy on Linux.
[14:48] <Vhozard> will i notice the speed difference between ubuntu and arch on a E8400 (@3,6Ghz) and  2 samsung spinpoints in raid?
[14:48] <NoiZe91> pogay: if i am connected with the other laptop, will i get internet access?
[14:48] <wols> !alsa | binaryflow
[14:48] <marx2k> So Apple crippled the iPod to not work with Linux??
[14:48] <IndyGunFreak> pretty much
[14:48] <erwin_> binaryflow: is there anyway to check for alsa updates only
[14:48] <pogay> NoiZe91:  I think this is the way...
[14:48] <marx2k> lame
[14:48] <IndyGunFreak> marx2k: best place to look for a good, mp3/video player with solid linux support, is Creative
[14:48] <NoiZe91> pogay: so can wou help me getting the ad-hoc connection?
[14:49] <ikonia> marx2k: cowan audio
[14:49] <marx2k> Creative actually makes decent mp3 players?
[14:49] <IndyGunFreak> marx2k: they supposedly work quite well w/ linux..
[14:49] <pogay> NoiZe91: but other pc has to allow achoc connections
[14:49] <bmharsha> Can I schedule my Ubuntu to connect to Internet only at particular time? Right now my computer gets connected to Internet as soon as I switch on my Modem.
[14:49] <IndyGunFreak> ikonia: but they cost a fortune
[14:49] <ikonia> IndyGunFreak: yup
[14:49] <NoiZe91> Indygunfreak: is there a possibility to hack a WPA2 network? (without getting a handshake)?
[14:49] <pogay> NoiZe91: unfortunalty I never tried that, an I now only the this kind of connection exists...
[14:49] <IndyGunFreak> NoiZe91: it'd be pretty freakin difficult.. why don't you just go buy a $40 router?
[14:50] <Meeso> Pm me whoever was talking to meeso
[14:50] <NoiZe91> pogay: thanks anyway
[14:50] <NoiZe91> IndyGunFreak: to easy ;)
[14:50] <IndyGunFreak> well, ..
[14:50] <Beefeater> its not possible
[14:50] <Bodsda> NoiZe91, WPA2 not sure WEP yes definately
[14:50] <pogay> NoiZe91: aren't there description in the internet?
[14:50] <IndyGunFreak> WEP you can crack in 5min, wpa.. eh..
[14:51] <wols> NoiZe91: with enough sniffed traffic, yes. IIRC ~10GB
[14:51] <NoiZe91> pogay: not realy good ones
[14:51] <Meeso> rebooting
[14:51] <pogay> NoiZe91: I know the problem...:-) good luck
[14:51] <NoiZe91> wols: but my HDD has only 5GB ;)
[14:51] <Bodsda> NoiZe91, theres plenty of wifi encryption hack tuto's
[14:51] <bmharsha> Right now my computer gets connected to Internet as soon as I switch on my Modem. ﻿Can I schedule my Ubuntu to connect to Internet only at particular time?
[14:51] <MXIIA> does ubuntu automatically act as a server? when I enter "http://localhost" it says "It Works!" but I never installed Apache or anything of the such
[14:52] <Ziroday> MXIIA: you must of
[14:52] <Bodsda> bmharsha, you could set up a block in your router config to achieve those results
[14:52] <NoiZe91> Bodsda: i know.. wou can hack WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK and WEP. But when there is no handshake wou must bruteforce it
[14:52] <Ziroday> MXIIA: or you installed some other app that requires apache
[14:52] <alraune> ﻿Meeso: ?
[14:52] <MXIIA> hmm
[14:52] <NoiZe91> pogay: thx
[14:52] <albech> wols: any ideas?
[14:52] <Ziroday> MXIIA: you can always remove it if you want
[14:52] <pogay> NoiZe91: but try first to connect to other pc.... it's ok
[14:52] <Ziroday> MXIIA: and synaptic will tell you what needs it
[14:52] <Bodsda> NoiZe91, bruteforce, not really, with enough traffic you can sniff the password (eventually)
[14:53] <MXIIA> is there a way to tell what it is?
[14:53] <NoiZe91> podgay: what do wou mean?
[14:53] <NoiZe91> Bodsda: but the problem is, that i only have 2 GB of free HDD
[14:53] <FabParma>  i tried pc-bsd distro with kde. inside the menus there is an utility to change the driver of video adapter that its like cups to configure a lan printer. do you think that dont exist for Ubunu a package/utility like that? Thank You
[14:53] <Bodsda> NoiZe91, learn where the 'y' key is please
[14:53] <NoiZe91> Bodsda: or how many traffic do wou mean?
[14:53] <bmharsha> ﻿Bodsda: I am not using any Router to connect to Internet, all I have is a Modem that is connected to my telephone and it is not Dialup. I am using Broadband.
[14:54] <Bodsda> bmharsha, not sure then, sorry
[14:54] <wols> NoiZe91: compression!
[14:54] <wols> less albech
[14:54] <NoiZe91> Bodsda: ;) i'm writing from an french keyboard. Normally i do this from an german one. Thats why i mix up the letters ;)
[14:54] <bmharsha> ﻿Bodsda: Its ok, thanks for a try.
[14:54] <tillux2> MXIIA: or monodevelop ;)
[14:55] <erwin_> still no sound
[14:55] <wols> albech: (II) NVIDIA(0): Virtual screen size determined to be 1280 x 800
[14:55] <bmharsha> Right now my computer gets connected to Internet as soon as I switch on my Modem. Can I schedule my Ubuntu to connect to Internet only at particular time?
[14:55] <NoiZe91> Bodsda: how can i get so much traffic? waiting is not the solution... ;)
[14:56] <albech> wols: thats my main display on the notebook
[14:56] <wols> albech: so you want a 2nd monitor connected?
[14:56] <Bodsda> NoiZe91, im not going to give you a encryption hacking tuto in this channel
[14:56] <wols> NoiZe91: you can't. waiting is the only way
[14:56] <albech> wols: yes its a bravia TV connected with the VGA cable
[14:56] <wols> at least with WPA
[14:57] <NoiZe91> Bodsda: then in a private, or can you tell me a site where i can read what i have to do?

[14:57] <wols> ubottu: if you are lucky, nvidia-settings should work. you will need twinview
[14:58] <wols> albech: if you are lucky, nvidia-settings should work. you will need twinview
[14:58] <IndyGunFreak> NoiZe91: why don't you use google?.. or like i said, buy a router, then you won't have to wait.
[14:58] <wols> albech: twinview is the thing to look for with nvidia drivers
[14:58] <FabParma>  i tried pc-bsd distro with kde. inside the menus there is an utility to change the driver of video adapter that its like cups to configure a lan printer. do you think that dont exist for Ubunu a package/utility like that? Thank You
[14:58] <albech> wols: ill have another look at that.. i already had a working dual display with another 20" monitor, but i want to be able to connect it to my TV as well
[14:58] <wols> FabParma: you run debian. this is the wrong channel for you
[14:58] <albech> wols: ill have another look at the dualhead page though
[14:59] <wols> albech: use twinview. not normal dualhead like xinerama

[15:12] <dawid> hi all
[15:12] <dawid>  could any one give me program that is easy to create programs?? for ubuntu sys gnome

[15:13] <trigpin> Ziroday,  it not about being slow but it keeps flashing
[15:13] <wols> dawid: what language?
[15:13] <wols> trigpin: so which are you using?
[15:13] <dawid> the best will be for beginners
[15:13] <wols> dawid: python
[15:13] <wols> with pygtk
[15:14] <dawid> can u give me a program
[15:14] <dawid> ??
[15:14] <Ziroday> trigpin: or you can execute a script that turns compiz off when you start the game
[15:14] <dawid> i have python ide but its too hard
[15:14] <trigpin> wols , intergrated family chip set i think let me check
[15:14] <christel> DozedOnLinux: what can i do you for?

[15:16] <dawid> ok bye all
[15:16] <dawid> :P
[15:16] <wols> trigpin: are you using xserver-xgl?
[15:16] <emorris> are there any programs/features that will allow me to block the mouse from entering a certain area of the screen?
[15:16] <wols> trigpin: dpkg -l xserver-xgl
[15:17] <xnv> emorris: I hope so. That would be a hilarious prank.
[15:17] <wols> trigpin: tho I think your "videocard" is kinda marginal for compiz
[15:17] <l3d> here is something I just installed clamav and was wondering about if a pdf document could have a virus? sorry if this is a noob question
[15:17] <emorris> xnv: i have a real use for it though
[15:17] <wols> l3d: there were some exploits IIRC
[15:17] <trigpin> wols , it says not matching xserver-xorg
[15:18] <KomiaPoika> what is package name for extra resolutions and video crads support again?
[15:18] <pvh_sa|wrk> l3d, not a virus as such. however, there are malformed PDFs that exploit bugs in PDF readers... cause buffer overflows, etc
[15:18] <wols> trigpin: where did I say _anything_ about xserver-xorg?
[15:18] <Ziroday> KomiaPoika: depends what video card
[15:18] <KomiaPoika> Ziroday: it's a trident
[15:18] <wols> KomiaPoika: there is only the trident driver. it should be used automatically
[15:18] <l3d> so I should delete the linux help books that are the pdf books in question
[15:18] <wols> l3d: why?
[15:18] <DozedOnLinux> oh this is great
[15:18] <Ziroday> KomiaPoika: what wols said
[15:18] <wols> l3d: not every pdf has an exploit
[15:19] <trigpin> wols , No packages found matching xserver-xgl. sory i get confuesed all sound same to me
[15:19] <KomiaPoika> wols: i have a 800x600 screen ion a 1024 laptop monitor
[15:19] <wols> KomiaPoika: check your Xorg.0.log then
[15:19] <tobias__> Hey, can anybody help me with the xampp installation?
[15:19] <wols> KomiaPoika: and set 16bit color instead of 24
[15:19] <tobias__> I need to know where the /localhost/ folder is located so i can put my php files
[15:19] <Raist_Maj> Hi
[15:19] <wols> tobias__: no. ubuntu comes with everything lamp has. xampp is not ubuntu and not supported
[15:20] <wols> !lamp |  tobias__
[15:20] <tobias__> Thank mate
[15:20] <Vegombrei> hi .. i installed ubuntu a few weeks ago .. i like it and wanna remove windows and make my pc a complete ubuntu computer ... how do i reinstall and which is the best version to download and install ?
[15:20] <wols> tobias__: /var/www/ in the default ubuntu apache install which you should use. xampp we dunno and don't care: if you have installed it you now have a borken install
[15:21] <wols> !best | Vegombrei
[15:21] <IndyGunFreak> Vegombrei: well what version do you have installed now?
[15:21] <Vegombrei> IndyGunFreak: the latest hardy i guess
[15:21] <IndyGunFreak> Vegombrei: ok, then why not just stick w/ that?
[15:21] <pogay> Vegombrei:  you can use gparted and change, move and resize partiton, but use the gparted live-CD.
[15:22] <IndyGunFreak> pogay: if he has a big hard drive, that will take freakin forever.. it'd be easier to reinstall.
[15:22] <IndyGunFreak> you an reinstall in 20min, or spend 10hrs moving partitions
[15:22] <Vegombrei> IndyGunFreak: thing is i have 2 hdd's and both wierdly partitioned due to windows on one of the hdd's .. i wanna wipe my pc slate clean and reinstall and let ubuntu configure the space .. i already backed up all my stuff on an external usb hdd
[15:23] <vorl> Hi, Why are there so much distributions, doesn't that seem contraproducent?
[15:23] <pogay> Vegombrei:  you can copy your installatio via cparted to an other disk. then reformat, and copy back
[15:23] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[15:23] <vorl> the software developers have it harder to release and some people seem to insult people from other distributions
[15:24] <pvh_sa|wrk> heya... i've got a logical volume on a loopback device - any ideas how to make the vg available at boot time? at the moment i've written my own init.d script to do a losetup and vgchange -ay  - but wondering if there is some facility already there that i missed
[15:24] <wols> vorl: this is a ubuntu support channel. not a general linux channel for general linux questions
[15:24] <wols> vorl: do you have a ubuntu support question?
[15:24] <bazhang> vorl, not the place for chat; try #ubuntu-offtopic please
[15:24] <KomiaPoika> wols: it just installed and in the xorg.conf file there is no resolution or bitdepth setup
[15:24] <vorl> bazhang, thanks
[15:24] <wols> pvh_sa|wrk: /etc/fstab
[15:25] <wols> KomiaPoika: I know. you need to edit it by hand basically :(
[15:25] <KomiaPoika> wols: :o
[15:25] <Vegombrei> pogay: its not like that .. lemme be more precise .. i have 2 hdd's .. one 80 gb and one 250 gb .. the 80 gb is independantly ubuntu .. the 250 gb is partitioned .. i wanna wipe that hdd out and incorporate it with ubuntu .. but the thing is the 250 gb is my primary master
[15:26] <wols> KomiaPoika: welcome to new Xorg autodetection. which doesn fscking work! :(
[15:26] <pvh_sa|wrk> wols, seems appropriate for a filesystem, but not for a LVM volume group
[15:26] <Kartagis> hoşçakalın / bye
[15:26] <wols> Vegombrei: format the 250GB partition with ext3 and add it to /etc/fstab on a mountpoint of your choice
[15:26] <KomiaPoika> wols: yes i remember last time i installed linux on that old laptop it found my card correctly
[15:26] <wols> !lvm | pvh_sa|wrk
[15:26] <christel> wols: ok, 7pm a good time? :p
[15:27] <wols> KomiaPoika: gutsy?
[15:27] <LordRedyen> hi, i need help installing ubuntu
[15:27] <wols> christel: lemme check air fares and schedules :)
[15:27] <KomiaPoika> wols: no, kubuntu 8.04 is what i just installed
[15:27] <Michael__> I have just installed Ubuntu on my new PC. amd have no wired or wireless internet connection available. It just says 'No network connection'. I have ran the ifconfig command which just said something about loopback, localhost 127.0.0.1. It said nothing about my network card, where do I go from here?
[15:27] <wols> KomiaPoika: I mean the old install where it was detected properly
[15:27] <LordRedyen> can't install ubuntu becauso HDerrors ﻿http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/36539/ ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x2 frozen
[15:28] <KomiaPoika> wols: kubuntu 7.x as far as i remember
[15:28] <KomiaPoika> wols: i just wiped it without backuping xorg.conf, cause it was so easy last time :(
[15:28] <KomiaPoika> or etch was it i don't remember
[15:28] <xnv> Michael__: Checked for physical switches?
[15:28] <pvh_sa|wrk> wols, the first link in that list doesn't exist and the second makes no reference to loopback devices
[15:29] <Michael__> xnv, what are they?
[15:29] <wols> pvh_sa|wrk: how is a loopback device special?
[15:29] <pvh_sa|wrk> wols: it needs to be associated with a file... i.e. losetup -f /data/mybigfile
[15:29] <xnv> Michael__: Physical switches. Switches on your laptop to turn on/off your network connection. They are quite common for wireless cards. They can be buttons, key combos, etc.
[15:29] <xerxes1358> Hi
[15:29] <MXIIA>  6192 mxiia     39  19 2110m 1.7g 2264 S    1 90.3   2:05.73 beagled-helper    - This is killing my RAM!! I have 15MB free how do I kill this process so I can apt-get remove it?
[15:29] <wols> KomiaPoika: etch and gutsy use the old non autodetect X. only hardy and lenny fscked it up. morons (yes I know !language, don't bother. I still think the x strike force are such)
[15:30] <pogay> Vegombrei:  I always use gparted for repartentioning, and IMHO it doesn't take such a long time.
[15:30] <xerxes1358> Does Ubuntu Live DVD has HP Printer support ? I have a HP7345. How do I check if this printer is supported in the Live DVD ?
[15:30] <Michael__> xnv. I am using a wired connection right now on my Vista partition.
[15:30] <wols> pvh_sa|wrk: I'd still sue either initrd or a init.d script
[15:31] <bringatowel> xerxes1358, give it a try ;) and also try enabling restricted drivers
[15:31] <MXIIA> xerxes1358: search for HPLIP
[15:32] <xnv> Michael__: And?
[15:32] <pogay> Vegombrei:  and as wols said, you can mount any partiton to your ubuntu insatallation.
[15:32] <pvh_sa|wrk> wols, thanks, i wrote my own init.d script but was just wondering if there was a "standard way" i'm missing ;)
[15:32] <selinuxium> Hi all, For some reason OpenOffice opens and take up all of the screen real estate, sitting above the task bars... Is there any way of stopping this?
[15:32] <wols> pvh_sa|wrk: all I'd do is the losetup in the init.d rest if possible in fstab btw
[15:32] <wols> cause it's fstab where mounts happen :)
[15:32] <xnv> Michael__: If there's a problem with your wired card, presumably you want to get on the network and try to download updates. If you can use your wireless card instead, you should look to see if you need to enable it.
[15:33] <lamego> are there any instructions on how to debug a system freeze ?
[15:33] <pvh_sa|wrk> wols, nah, not fstab  - since this vg is not mounted (its used to host a Xen DomU).
[15:33] <squiggle> hi all, i'm having problems automounting my shared partition. Works manually but won't automount, and i'm quite sure i've edited /etc/fstab properly.
[15:33] <zaubra0912> упсс это че англ. чат )))
[15:33] <Vegombrei> pogay: actually i didnt understand it
[15:33] <Michael__> xnv, I am using a wired connection right now on my Vista partition. I don't actually have a wireless card come to think of it, but my wired just isn't working.
[15:34] <wols> squiggle: pastebin your fstab
[15:34] <dabbu> my system is behaviour is very odd....i have inserted a pen drive and removed but it is still showing the pen drive in my computer......i have installed few softwares but it is not showing ......when i play a .wmv file it does not play the sound only the video is playing and after few mnustes the audio is starting
[15:34] <dabbu> why
[15:34] <pogay> Vegombrei:  what is on the 250GB harddrive?
[15:34] <Vegombrei> pogay: im a noob dude i was looking up that fstab thing wols told me about

[15:37] <magnetron> bluey, liferea
[15:37] <wols> squiggle: exact tabs are important in fstab. and there exists no "relatime". perhaps you mean "realtime"?
[15:37] <bluey> thanx magnetron
[15:37] <magnetron> bluey, install it with "add/remove applications"
[15:37] <Vegombrei> pogay: windows on half the partition and music, movies, tv shows and porn on the other half
[15:37] <squiggle> anyone can help me with my automounting problem? quite sure it's easy to fix but i'm really bad with configs in general. thx in advance.
[15:37] <TheWanted> hello :(
[15:37] <bluey> magnetron: lemme try
[15:38] <squiggle> oh sry wols. didn't see yr post
[15:38] <pvh_sa|wrk> wols, relatime is an inode access time optimisation: man mount
[15:38] <emorris> wols: yes there is http://lwn.net/Articles/244829/
[15:38] <squiggle> wols: anyway the problem i'm having is with the last line only, partition in question is /dev/sda2
[15:39] <wols> squiggle: your ext3 option is wrong as I told you and the last line need proper tabs
[15:39] <TheWanted> how can i copy links from my windows PC to my ubuntu .. am using tightVNC  !!!!!!!!!!
[15:39] <TheWanted> wols didn't got it
[15:39] <wols> emorris: thx
[15:39] <pogay> vegombr an you want the ubuntu on the 250gb disk?
[15:39] <squiggle> wols: okay thanks. i'll go try read and fix that. the partition is fat32 not ext3.
[15:39] <wols> haven#t heard of it yet. learn a new thing every day
[15:39] <secludedsage> Excuse me. I want to install Kubuntu 7.04 with KDE 3 in my mobile harddisk. Will KDE 3 upgrade to KDE 4 with Kubuntu's being upgrading to 8.10?
[15:39] <wols> squiggle: I know
[15:40] <wols> squiggle: but I was wrong about the ext3 relatime option
[15:40] <emorris> wols: [relatime] provides for updates only if the previous atime is older than the mtime or ctime (from wikipedia article "stat (Unix)"
[15:40] <squiggle> wols: okay... sorry. i'm a bit slow at all this. so how do i fix it? put in the tabs properly?
[15:40] <ogzy> what is the name of the screen that shows the ubuntu logo and a filling bar at the boot time? I want to change the appreance of that screen
[15:41] <bluey> superb ...... thanx magnetron

[15:41] <exalted> Hi. I have an LCD monitor which works best 1024x768 at 60Hz. I'm adding vga=792 boot parameter for GRUB and then eventually update-grub, but when I restart my system nothing will show up on screen. Do you have any idea(s)? Thanks.

[15:41] <TheWanted> where can i see clipboards ???????????????????
[15:41] <pogay> Vegombrei:  if you like ubuntu on the 250GB-Disk you can resize the last partiton. you need about 5GB for full installation.
[15:41] <TheWanted> some 1 give me some minutes
[15:41] <kindofabuzz> i cannot gksudo nautilus, or when i'm in nautilus and right click a folder and select open as admin, i get password prompt but does nothing
[15:42] <Vegombrei> pogay: the point being i dont want absolutely no partitions .. i want the hdd's to be a single partition of its true size thats it .. im tired of having to see so many drives
[15:42] <emorris> TheWanted: you can't
[15:42] <kane77> pogay, hmm.. but then when you use it for a longer time it takes a bit more space actually.. I for instance after 3 years have 15GB used by / partition
[15:42] <squiggle> wols: /mnt/sda2 vfat umask=077,uid=1000      will that do? i read it off a howto
[15:43] <TheWanted> emorris u sure ?
[15:43] <pogay> Vegombrei:  ah you like to make on disk out of many partions on the 250GB?
[15:43] <pulseezar> quick question; what command would I use to start samba?
[15:43] <emorris> TheWanted: AFAIK, since you can copy all sorts of data from images to plain text to files, it would be impossible to make a universal viewer
[15:44] <E|_LHNAS> ÷áßñåôå, ôß êÜíåôå;
[15:44] <pogay> Vegombrei: wols is right, in linux, you can mount every partion to your home...
[15:44] <wols> squiggle: yes. pretty much
[15:44] <Myrtti> !gr | E|_LHNAS
[15:45] <Vegombrei> pogay: yeah dude .. its already got partitions .. i want to knock it all out and make it just one single 250 gb hdd .. thing is ubuntu is running from another 80 gb hdd in my system .. they're both sata but i think the 250 gb hdd is my primary . you think if i knock it out it'll take out bootloader etc ?
[15:45] <E|_LHNAS> kissesssss
[15:48] <trigpin> anyone know a light weight firefox as it is talking 20 cpu with 2 tab open ?
[15:48] <pogay> Vegombrei:  I guess you can configure the boot sequence and device in your bios
[15:48] <Jockeo> In OpenOffice.org Word processor, I've made an index (Table of contents). However there is no blank space between the number and the heading. How can I fix this? Now it look like: "1Introduction" but I want it to be "1 Introduction".
[15:49] <dabbu> opera of firefox which one is best
[15:49] <gilda> best is matter of opinion

[15:51] <dolo> Is anyone here using a bootsplash that they made themeselves?
[15:52] <IndyGunFreak> Vegombrei: i think this is being made more of an issue than it needs to be, just make sure your data is backed up, and reinstall
[15:52] <IndyGunFreak> and set the drives how you want them
[15:52] <bringatowel> dolo, you mean for Grub? not now but i have before
[15:52] <dolo> not for grub you know when the pc first boots that orange ubuntu logo with loading bar

[16:03] <wols> squiggle: don't. to check your fstab entry, just jsue mount /dev/sda2
[16:03] <TheWanted> emorris nothing loaded when i pressed alt+f2
[16:03] <deepfriedsquirre> Some stderr from running the installer: The setup program seems to have failed on x86_64/glibc-2.0
[16:03] <earthian> My friend has problems with the keyboard layout in hardy
[16:03] <wols> deepfriedsquirre: glibc-2.0 is kinda OLD
[16:03] <Mortuis> bringatowel: I am connected to the machine via SSH.  I had originally set the password in that Remote Desktop area, but I don't have vncpasswd installed on that machine (I just tried it).  So I was just confirming that I had to install vncpasswd to make this change, and that vncpasswd is not for something other than that Remote Desktop area.
[16:03] <earthian> it sometimes not change to some other languages in the group
[16:03] <abchirk> Hi, I started the UbuntuinstallCD (Hardy) I tried to resetup my grub... but there aren't any usual device names under /dev/ only /dev/disk/aasjdi-part2 and else? How I can resetup grub then?
[16:03] <deepfriedsquirre> I found glibc-2.7.x or soemthing, but I can't find glibc2.0
[16:03] <emorris> TheWanted: what are you seeing now?
[16:03] <deepfriedsquirre> yet it worked in an installation of xubuntu on top of an old ubuntu installation
[16:03] <dolo> any ideas?
[16:03] <deepfriedsquirre> both of which were 8.04
[16:04] <TheWanted> emorris only firefox
[16:04] <wols> !grub | abchirk
[16:04] <emorris> !enter | deepfriedsquirre
[16:04] <opt1k> wols: nothing happens
[16:04] <TheWanted> emorris something wrong there
[16:04] <deepfriedsquirre> wols: Well, what shall I do about it?
[16:04] <wols> opt1k: that's the problem. not tcl8.5 installed. do that now
[16:04] <wols> !uake4
[16:04] <wols> !quake4
[16:04] <deepfriedsquirre> I looked here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games/Native/Quake4
[16:04] <emorris> TheWanted: close firefox, press ctrl-alt-backspace to restart x, then log in again
[16:05] <opt1k> wols: i'm pretty much sure i've installed tcl8.5 but i'll do as you say
[16:05] <abchirk> wols that is my problem, he isnt linking my disk on /dev/ so I cannot use grub commands to install it?
[16:05] <squiggle> wols: somehow, when i didn't change anything the last time i rebooted, it worked. i dunno what you/I did right though. lol. happily ever after for me
[16:05] <pogay> abchirk:  I guess the easyest way to correct a grub installation is from a live-CD
[16:06] <abchirk> pogay but how? I have to reinstall it with the stages and so on..
[16:06] <legend2440> opt1k: why compile it when it is in synaptic?
[16:06] <wols> abchirk: bind mount /dev and /proc inside the chroot BEFORE you chroot
[16:06] <bringatowel> Mortuis, yeah remote desktop controls the vnc server, so vncpasswd should do the trick
[16:06] <wols> !info eggdrop
[16:06] <TheWanted> emorris nothing working
[16:06] <opt1k> wols: ii  tcl8.5                                     8.5.0-2ubuntu1                                       Tcl (the Tool Command Language) v8.5 - run-t

[16:06] <wols> opt1k: and the -dev file?
[16:06] <Mortuis> bringatowel: Okay, thanks! I'll go hunt down which package has vncpasswd then.
[16:07] <dolo> Anyone here running a bootsplash that theyve made themselves?
[16:07] <wols> abchirk: kinda unpossible
[16:07] <pogay> abchirk:  you can mount --bind /your/boot /boo and then grub-install /dev/yourdevice, the update-grub
[16:07] <opt1k> legend2440: synaptic has an older version
[16:07] <opt1k> wols: what dev file?
[16:07] <emorris> TheWanted: what do you mean nothing?
[16:07] <IdleOne> dolo, ask a specific question in refference to your specific issue. that Q is to vague for anybody to be able to help you
[16:07] <wols> opt1k: the tcl8.5 dev package
[16:07] <abchirk> wols the disk is under /dev/disk/somelongname-part[1-4]
[16:08] <abchirk> ah maybe I can try that pogay
[16:08] <dolo> Anyone here know how to fix  "usplash: can't get console font: Invalid argument"
[16:08] <opt1k> wols: nop, don't have tcl dev package
[16:08] <wols> opt1k: and why do you MUST have the newer version?
[16:08] <emorris> TheWanted: no response to anything?
[16:08] <bringatowel> Mortuis, sure, hope it works
[16:08] <wols> opt1k: then how do you expect it to compile anything with tcl?
[16:08] <TheWanted> emorris nop
[16:08] <pogay> abchirk:  so you also can install grub to an external usb-device.
[16:08] <TheWanted> emorris as u said i mean
[16:08] <opt1k> wols: i'm used to having newest versions...
[16:08] <invitado> hola
[16:08] <dolo> IdleOne: I figured if they already have a working one of there own maybe they could tell me how they did it
[16:09] <opt1k> wols: what's the dev package name in synaptic?
[16:09] <taak> where can i ask a question about gnu screen?
[16:09] <invitado> hello
[16:09] <wols> opt1k: that's foolish
[16:09] <wols> taak: here if you run ubuntu
[16:09] <pogay> abchirk: but you have an correct grub, to be able to make the grub operations...
[16:09] <IdleOne> dolo, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=616510 take a look at this post. it is for 7.10 but it should still be valid
[16:09] <taak> ok, i think screen is messing up my TERM a little bit
[16:09] <abchirk> pogay how correct grub? its installed yes?
[16:09] <taak> the color on the shell prompt is lost
[16:09] <emorris> TheWanted: ok, hold down alt+sysrq (print screen), then while holding these, press s, then u, then b in turn. This will sync your disks, remount them as read only, then reboot the system
[16:09] <taak> works ok elsewhere, in editors
[16:10] <opt1k> wols: btw, i can add whatever i want while compiling it from source so, that's another reason why i haven't used the one in synaptic
[16:10] <geirha> taak: you have colored prompt, but not in screen?
[16:10] <invitado> hello
[16:10] <taak> geirha: right
[16:10] <JewStyleKungFu> does anyone know some open source software that I could use to create a disk image of an XP installation?
[16:10] <abchirk> hm pogay when I do grub-install /dev/disk/by-id/mypartition.. he tells me that the disk doesn't have an correct bios drive?
[16:10] <pogay> abchirk: yes grub must be installed correctly. And it seem's to be impossible to install grub via a chrooted installation.
[16:11] <wols> pogay: wrong
[16:11] <emorris> JewStyleKungFu: there is a program called quickstart. It is free, though not open source
[16:11] <pawan> hi
[16:11] <invitado> hi pawan
[16:11] <geirha> taak: ~/.bashrc is the file you want to edit then. Not sure what the best way is, but setting force_color_prompt=yes should work
[16:11] <wols> JewStyleKungFu: man dd
[16:11] <pogay> wols: I never arrived to install grub via a chroot...

[16:11] <wols> pogay: just cause you can't do it successfully doesn't mean it can't be done. I did a few times
[16:11] <JewStyleKungFu> thanks guys
[16:12] <pogay> wols: but drives I have seen, now when mounting full proc and dev
[16:12] <wols> one needs to bind mount /dev and /proc into the chroot of course
[16:12] <Prose> was wondering, when connecting to a public wi-fi connection (like library or airport), is spoofing a different MAC address frequently a good way to keep privacy high ?
[16:12] <opt1k> wols: ty for help
[16:12] <pogay> wols: good to know, thanks for this information.
[16:12] <invitado> hello

[16:13] <geirha> taak: A safer way is probably to add a "screen) color_prompt=yes;;" in the case "$TERM" part ...
[16:13] <bastid_raZor> i get some errors like this in my .xsession-error :: (gnome-terminal:17659): Vte-WARNING **: No handler for control sequence `device-control-string' defined.
[16:13] <mndo> hi there!
[16:13] <taak> geirha: the default .bashrc has case "$TERM" in xterm-color) color_prompt=yes;; does that have something to do with it?
[16:13] <pogay> wols: sometimes other problems arrive, so the failurs are not due to chroot, o.k.
[16:13] <mndo> with which id does apache2 run?
[16:14] <geirha> taak: yes, if you double that line and change xterm-color to screen, it should give you color in screen.
[16:14] <deepfriedsquirre> ﻿I could install Quake 4 on an installation of xubuntu over the top of an installation of ubuntu (I forgot to format the old partition that had ubuntu installed on it ebfore installing xubuntu), but now that I'm on a plain xubuntu I'm getting: 'The setup program seems to have failed on x86_64/glibc-2.0'
[16:14] <wols> bastid_raZor: since when are warnings errors?
[16:14] <pogay> wols: there are drives, which are not recognized be grub 0.97...

[16:15] <wols> pogay: cat /boot/grub/device.map
[16:16] <wols> bastid_raZor: I only see a single error about compiz
[16:16] <dolo> IdleOne: I read all 13 posts the issue was never resolved
[16:16] <pogay> wols:  i had the case where gemetry found the disk, but find didn't find the kernel...
[16:16] <pawan> hi
[16:16] <taak> geirha: wait, how do i want to set it exactly?
[16:16] <wols> pogay: BIOS error possible. 1024 cylinder boundary for example
[16:16] <bastid_raZor> wols; okay, where else might i look to see why gnome/entire computer locks up at times. this is a fresh install of hardy
[16:16] <pogay> wols: this disk was not bootable via grub1, I can boot it now with grub2
[16:17] <wols> bastid_raZor: almost unpossible :(

[16:17] <mg> Hey People! Any nice spellcheck solutions under vim?
[16:17] <RequinB4> Wow... ok - I came on here to try and get MS Office .tiff file formats to play nice with evince,  when I tried re-scanning and realized that ubuntu has full plug and play with my printer/scanner and gpdf does everything in GUI twice as well as windows with more options and no format issues...
[16:18] <dolo> does launchpad work well for bugreporting?
[16:18] <xnv> mg: Any reason not to try asking in #vim first?
[16:18] <pogay> wols: strange, "this" disk, which is perfectly bootable from my laptop, didn't but from my fathers pc, althoug it was shown as usb-drive...
[16:18] <wols> RequinB4: gz. if it all works it's great, but often we see here when it doesn't :)
[16:18] <kbrosnan> cwill747: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PulseAudio see the start of the known issues section
[16:18] <emorris> dolo: that's what it's for ;-)

[16:29] <nice_burger> hi. screenlets anyone? they disappear when i 'show desktop'. what limbo are they being sent to?
[16:29] <abchirk> or ist possible to boot from a live cd a special partition?
[16:29] <geirha> taak: The easiest is to use Ctrl+a Shift+a I guess
[16:29] <Juhaz> nice_burger, same limbo as every other window.
[16:30] <king_> couldn't use fcitx to input Chinese after i update it to 8.04.why?
[16:30] <eshat> Is it possible that I lose root permissions if I run a script via ssh root@host /bin/script ???
[16:30] <taak> geirha: i'd prefer to have it dynamically set to the current process, which it's supposed to be able to do...
[16:30] <riegersn> Is there a rom manager out there like Kamefu (KDE), that can manage all rom types?
[16:30] <nice_burger> Juhaz: almost - other windows i can get back, not screenlets
[16:32] <Juhaz> nice_burger, right, because the screenlets skip the taskbar and alt+tab window, which is presumably what you use to get the other windows back, but the actual hiding is still exactly the same.
[16:33] <abchirk> pogay when he makes the stages? because I need the new stages? with grub-install he doesn't or?
[16:33] <RemsSs> hello everybody
[16:33] <Juhaz> nice_burger, wmctrl might help to get them back, but really, they should set some sort of hint to prevent the wm from hiding the in the first place.
[16:33] <nice_burger> wmctrl?
[16:34] <bee> How would I go about instealling php4?

[16:36] <pogay> abchirk:  the stage-files grub needs to boot, and they have to be placed somewhere...
[16:37] <pogay> abchirk:  you know you can start many applications via grub, but you need only one grub installation.
[16:38] <pogay> abchirk:  in /boot/grub/menu.lst all the installations can be added.
[16:38] <geirha> taak: if you prepend the command with screen, inside a screen, it should set the title to the program name automagically.

[16:41] <RequinB4> TeraByte: people are more willing to click on links if you give a synopsis of what the problem is
[16:42] <TeraByte> RequinB4, i cant login into ubuntu, im dropped into the busybox shell
[16:42] <TeraByte> and im a noob, and i dont know what to do from there

[16:44] <wols> Ben43: lsusb

[16:44] <geirha> taak: yes. Start a new screen with screen. Then in the shell inside the screen, type for instance "screen irssi"
[16:44] <wols> TeraByte: there was an error before busybox came on
[16:45] <geirha> taak: that will create a new window with the title "irssi"
[16:45] <TeraByte> wols, how might i resolve it
[16:45] <wols> geirha: why start screen again inside screen?
[16:45] <wols> TeraByte: by telling us the error
[16:45] <TeraByte> let me restart
[16:45] <geirha> wols: it doesn't start a new screen, it creates a new window in the running screen

[16:50] <dim> hi to all
[16:51] <RequinB4> !hi
[16:51] <kevinO> abchirk, qgrubeditor, and kgrubeditor
[16:51] <timma> reisio, if you do not mind, what do you prefer?  And what about audacity?
[16:51] <abchirk> ok I will try
[16:51] <kevinO> abchirk, if theats what your trying to do, that program has all the optios you caould use, and it will help you understab grub more as time goes on
[16:51] <JoshuaRL> kevin0:  i think that qgrubeditor is done with, kgrubeditor is the new one
[16:52] <TeraByte> there was no error given.
[16:52] <Ktron> Is there a way to get a list of outstanding updates from the console? I'm ending up with a lot of ubuntu 8.04.1 server installations under me, and I'm trying to find a way to keep tabs on all of their update statuses
[16:52] <TeraByte> i just said "kernel alive" then went to the loading bar
[16:52] <kevinO> JoshuaRL, Isnt qgrub for gnome and kgrub for kde?
[16:52] <TeraByte> and then it went to busybox
[16:52] <Evo> hmm
[16:52] <JoshuaRL> kevinO: dont think so, but im may be wrong.  hold up, ill get links
[16:53] <Ben___> Australian Users FYI - Bigpond Unmetered Mirror has corrupt ISO :( Will follow up with Bigpond ASAP :)
[16:54] <pogay> wols, when I make grub-install --root-directory=/ /dev/sdc (in chroot) msg ist: /dev/sdc9: Not found or not a block device.  sdb9 is my current home
[16:54] <timma> reisio, sorry, I should say I am trying to do a batch (in command line), so it will go fast.
[16:54] <kevinO> JoshuaRL, kgrubeditor is the kde version and it is actually behind in version numbers, not sure why
[16:55] <kevinO> maybe it has the same basic code just started at a later time
[16:55] <pogay> wols, that why I never worked out a chrooted grub installation, probably I make a error.
[16:55] <JoshuaRL> kevinO: http://www.qt-apps.org/content/show.php/QGRUBEditor?content=60391
[16:56] <JoshuaRL> kevinO: http://www.kde-apps.org/content/show.php?content=75442
[16:56] <JoshuaRL> kevinO: both are for the QT toolset, qgrubeditor is discontinued
[16:56] <kevinO> JoshuaRL, look in synaptic, it says this is the kde  version of qgrub editor
[16:56] <kevinO> lol
[16:56] <bobJR> ive got a good question i been searchin everywhere on the ubuntu forums im lookin for somthing to back up dvd's but there copyright protected my children have grimy hands and they screw up most of my dvd's lol
[16:57] <bobJR> so got to make a backup
[16:57] <kevinO> JoshuaRL, looks like someone needs to update the repos :D
[16:57] <Guillaum3> how do i check my kernel version?
[16:57] <JoshuaRL> kevinO: heh
[16:57] <bastid_raZor> Guillaum3; uname -r
[16:58] <regeya> bobJR:  you can use k9copy for a totally Free Software solution, or if you have an x86 system and don't mind using wine, you can used dvdfab decrypter to rip, and dvdshrink to transcode...
[16:58] <bartocc> hi
[16:58] <regeya> bobJR: I understand about the grimy hands, btw. :->
[16:58] <bartocc> can I change the default size of my terminal window ?
[16:58] <bobJR> haha
[16:59] <bobJR> ill use dvdfab thank you very much i got wine installed now
[16:59] <pogay> wols: yeah df shows sda8 (my root) not the chrooted / which would be sdc2..
[16:59] <JoshuaRL> bobJR: dont use a windows app if you can find a native linux version
[16:59] <JoshuaRL> its just a better idea
[17:00] <regeya> one morning...well, first, I'm one of those "fools" who bought into hd-dvd (figured that the worse one would win) and I found my two-year-old using spartacus and king kong as toys
[17:00] <regeya> JoshuaRL: Agreed, but some of the newer discs have stronger/weirder copy protection than k9copy can handle
[17:01] <JoshuaRL> regeya: true, have you tried k9copy?
[17:01] <JoshuaRL> bobJR: you too, try k9copy
[17:01] <regeya> JoshuaRL: As far as that goes, a totally Free Software system shouldn't even play/transcode DVDs...
[17:01] <JoshuaRL> its a KDE app, so it may take a little bit of time to load
[17:01] <regeya> JoshuaRL: yeah.  it rocks for the stuff it'll do. :-D
[17:02] <JoshuaRL> regeya: true, but thats the price you pay for functionality.  just dont let stallman hear i said that
[17:02] <lbo_ken> there is also xdvdshrink who is a native  linux version of dvdshrink
[17:02] <regeya> I leave kdeinit running, because I use a few kde apps.  I'll be danged if I'm waiting for the daemons to load just to burn a DVD

[17:05] <abchirk> ok I will reboot the damn PC now. *hopefully*
[17:05] <JoshuaRL> lbo_ken: what are you trying to do when you get that error?
[17:05] <pogay> ab you came to grub when booting, you can start any installation, also by hand...
[17:05] <Bruno_F> hello. i'm a total newbie, can somebody help me setting up the wireless adapter? (atheros chip)

[17:09] <StuntMan> hi everyone, I have a USB headset that ubuntu doesn't switch to after plugging in...  it seems to work, sounds play through it in the test, but all my system sounds still go through the onboard sound, even after switching them in the sound preferences
[17:09] <meoblast001> are there any alternatives to the find command that actually work?
[17:09] <earthian> meoblast001, `locate`
[17:09] <meoblast001> thanx
[17:09] <earthian> meoblast001, also you might not know the correct syntax for find

[17:13] <Epsis> Hi everybody, i'm wondering if anyone can help me? I'm trying to install Ubuntu 8.04.1 under Wubi, inside windows vista. I've already downloaded the Ubuntu 8.04.1 .ISO so i wouldn't have to do it through Wubi, and i've followed all the instructions telling me how to use a pre-downloaded .ISO. The problem is even though i've got my .ISO in the same folder as Wubi.exe, (like told to on wubi's website), wubi still tries to download 
[17:13] <JoshuaRL> lbo_ken: sudo aptitude reinstall ubuntu-desktop
[17:13] <meoblast001> k thanx
[17:14] <JoshuaRL> Epsis: im not a wubi expert myself, but i think wubi downloads all it needs
[17:14] <lbo_ken> ok thanks JoshuaRL ill try that
[17:14] <JoshuaRL> Epsis: unless you dont want that to happen
[17:14] <dabb1> can any one give me his smb.conf file
[17:14] <dabb1> so that i can share file over samba
[17:14] <JoshuaRL> lbo_ken: no prob man, hope that helps
[17:14] <Epsis> it's just the download alone will take over an hour and a half, and i'm not sure if it's  even necessary
[17:15] <gaelfx> when you ctl+alt+f1, how do you get back into GDM?
[17:15] <JoshuaRL> Epsis: true.  again, im not sure about how it works

[17:16] <StuntMan> anyone?
[17:16] <bastid_raZor> gaelfx; or if you've made changes and you want to reload gdm .. do sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart

[17:42] <bobbob1016> I'm thinking of going from 32bit to 64bit, I have a Q6600.  Is it possible to go to 64bit without a reinstall?  Do the ATI drivers work with 64bit?
[17:42] <RequinB4> !64bit
[17:43] <nixnoob> bobbob1016: you must reinstall to go 64 bit unless you want to have alot of problems.
[17:43] <php6th> 64 bits sucks
[17:43] <frenkel> when my usb keyboard is connect to my computer, it wakes from suspend to ram immediately. it works fine with just a ps2 keyboard, anybody know how to fix it?
[17:43] <php6th> use 32 bits
[17:43] <alexboly> there are some issues with flash and java on 64 bits
[17:43] <rubyat> the only answer is 'KDE sucks'?
[17:43] <alexboly> it's better with 32 bits
[17:43] <php6th> 64 bits sucks , all apps with java and flash will crash
[17:44] <bobbob1016> alexboly, They run 32bit versions of FF and Flash in 64bit.
[17:44] <nixnoob> 64 bit is only good for server boxes.
[17:44] <tuna> php6th: that can be fixed
[17:44] <jimmygoon> aw, xfdesktop4 sucks :(

[17:44] <tuna> I run 64bit desktop, and have had no problems
[17:44] <bobbob1016> php6th, 64 bit sucks isn't a good answer, but going from your 16bit, I'm guessing you are joking...

[17:45] <nixnoob> tuna: except for when you have to go find custom debs for apps that havent been ported or drivers that are obscure?
[17:45] <php6th> to tune 64 bits will take you 6 months and you will endup returning to Windows Vista
[17:45] <bazhang> !ot | php6th

[17:47] <tuna> php6th: also, why?
[17:47] <bobbob1016> php6th, First off, to return that would mean I started with Vista.  Second I really hope you are joking.

[17:53] <tuna> just need nspluginwrapper
[17:54] <nixnoob> jimmygoon: nautilus and thunar are both filemanagers you arent making any sense.
[17:54] <helpermonkey> can someone help a relative n00b?
[17:55] <nixnoob> !ask | helpermonkey
[17:55] <bobbob1016> tuna, Ok, thanks, I will try it on a spare machine first.
[17:56] <helpermonkey> okay, so I have been trying to setup a file server with ubuntu server.  I have been following the guide found at http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu-home-fileserver, but have hit a snag.  I can putty into the box, but i am having difficulty figuring out if my samba configuration is correct (as i am unable to map a drive from a windows box).
[17:56] <jimmygoon> nixnoob, gnome uses nautilus as the desktop drawer
[17:57] <jimmygoon> nixnoob, so nautilus draws the desktop, so when I double click folders they open in nautilus rather than thunar
[17:57] <nixnoob> jimmygoon: yes filemanager you mean, you want it to use thunar instead?
[17:57] <jimmygoon> yes
[17:57] <nixnoob> hmm
[17:58] <bobbob1016> tuna, Just need to make sure I can get everything working there first, I was thinking of using Quickstart, should be able to do a lot of things for me.
[17:58] <tripps> looks like several people on the web had the same problem with no video and only audio after upgrade to heron. any ideas?
[17:58] <nixnoob> jimmygoon: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/nonautilusplease its took my 5 seconds on google to find this please do your research before asking questions here
[17:58] <tripps> note it did work fine in gutsy
[17:59] <jimmygoon> nixnoob, you are exceptionally rude, I already used that script
[17:59] <bs> hi all
[17:59] <Sansen> tripps, you are right.. hardy sucked in that
[17:59] <jimmygoon> nixnoob, and it doesn't replace nautilus to draw the background/desktop
[18:00] <bs> if i plugin a hardware device and hal logs something about nm_hal_device_added() where can i find the device? i can't find it in /dev
[18:00] <bobbob1016> helpermonkey, Did you search on the forums?  Try "sudo apt-get install system-config-samba" then running "sudo system-config-samba"  Or are you running server-edition without a gui?
[18:00] <nixnoob> jimmygoon: thunar doesnt do backgrounds.
[18:01] <jimmygoon> *sigh* nevermind
[18:01] <nixnoob> jimmygoon: im not sure what you want here
[18:01] <tripps> ok it looks like it's a compiz issue - switching to metacity I get video. what gives?
[18:01] <helpermonkey> i did some searching, but i could not seem to find the answers i was looking for
[18:01] <helpermonkey> i am running server without the gui
[18:01] <jimmygoon> nixnoob, I want nautilus to open folders in thunar. Since nautilus is running to control my desktop, it keeps launching folders to itself. I want to tell it to open with thunar
[18:02] <helpermonkey> would it be easier for me if I ran the gui and does that mean i need to reinstall the system?
[18:02] <jimmygoon> I have gone to folder properties and specified "Open with Thunar Open Folder" but it ignores that setting
[18:02] <nixnoob> jimmygoon: I get it, so you dont want to replace nautilus
[18:02] <Cyberai> I just got my MP3 player to mount finally using "sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdb /mnt/MP3/", but the perms on everything are rwxr-xr-x. I can't seem to chmod them even as root. Can anyone help?
[18:02] <jimmygoon> nixnoob, well, not completely I suppose - I tried xfdesktop4 but it was... not to my liking
[18:03] <bobbob1016> helpermonkey, I'd try freenas, not Ubuntu, it's a very lightweight, 32meg, install.  Has a webgui to configure it, never had samba issues.  It won't work well with ext3 though, they use ufs...
[18:03] <nixnoob> jimmygoon: why dont you set your background with some other app and just remove nautilus in favor of thunar
[18:04] <bobbob1016> jimmygoon, So you want nautilus to do your desktop and use thunar as a filemanager?
[18:04] <helpermonkey> hi bobbob - will i be able to map drives with free nas? I've heard of it before, just never played around with it
[18:04] <helpermonkey> i have at least a cursory understanding of linux
[18:04] <nixnoob> bobbob1016: thats what he wants
[18:04] <jimmygoon> bobbob1016, yes, but I want nautilus to open folders into thunar even when they are on the desktop
[18:04] <prince_jammys> !defaultapp | jimmygoon perhaps this:
[18:04] <prince_jammys> jimmygoon: perhaps not :)
[18:05] <jimmygoon> prince_jammys, that doesn't work, nautilus ignore that for folders ;)
[18:05] <jimmygoon> nixnoob, that would be okay. I just don't know of another/better background manager, like I said I tried xfdesktop4, but that was not good
[18:05] <nixnoob> jimmygoon: feh
[18:05] <indienick> so i just got this brand new toshiba p305 laptop and for some reason a cant get it to recognise the ath0 wireless, it shows up when i use the lspci command but thats about it any ideas?
[18:05] <bobbob1016> helpermonkey, Yes, you can map a drive.  It is something in your samba config.  If you fixed the issue it'd work, but FreeNAS is easy for me.
[18:05] <prince_jammys> jimmygoon: i suspect you have to delve into the world of gconf, which sucks. i don't have gnome, so i don't know.
[18:06] <osama> hello
[18:06] <helpermonkey> i'm sure it is something on my end, i just don't know what
[18:06] <kaushal_> hi
[18:06] <jimmygoon> prince_jammys, I spent some time searching there as well to no avail :( thanks though
[18:06] <kaushal_> I am looking out for openvpn config
[18:06] <helpermonkey> i'd hate to start over from the begining just for this...but i'll play around with it some more and come back if i can't figure it out
[18:06] <nixnoob> jimmygoon: feh can be used to set background images.
[18:06] <helpermonkey> one quick question - do i need xserver?
[18:06] <nixnoob> jimmygoon: its in the repos
[18:06]  * jimmygoon thinks feh is what is running my picture frame
[18:06] <kaushal_> on Ubuntu on client side
[18:06] <jimmygoon> nixnoob, I'm reading the --help right now, thanks
[18:06] <bobbob1016> jimmygoon, It would be very difficult to do that.  You COULD put scripts on the desktop to open specific folders in thunar.  As in make a script, put "thunar /home/jimmygoon" in it, and it should work.
[18:07] <kaushal_> I have configured openvpn using Network Manager
[18:07] <bobbob1016> helpermonkey, FreeNAS might be easier since it is meant just for fileserving.
[18:07] <jimmygoon> bobbob1016, yeah, someone had mentioned creating "launchers" for their folders, but that would be difficult because I would have to write a script to create the launchers and remember to run it or create them all by hand
[18:08] <helpermonkey> well, i'm going to be doing some more advanced stuff if i can at least get this working
[18:08] <helpermonkey> but i will try looking into it some more and comeback if i need help
[18:08] <helpermonkey> thx
[18:09] <bobbob1016> jimmygoon, That would be the easiest.  I'd say just make one, and copy it for each, "thunar /home/jimmygoon" then copy it and change /home/jimmygoon to whatever you want.  That's about as easy as I can think of.
[18:09] <pogay> wols: i made it work now, but I had to make a link from sdc8 to sdc2...(the correct root)
[18:09] <jimmygoon> bobbob1016, yeah, that or just not even using folders on my desktop, but that will hinder my laziness for organizing my filesystem
[18:10] <Meeso> how do I add a microphone?
[18:10] <jimmygoon> nixnoob, thanks for the feh suggestion
[18:10] <nixnoob> jimmygoon: no problem
[18:10] <wols> pogay: link?
[18:10] <jo4> I need a way of checking which users are connected to my vnc session, anyone? I also need a way to monitor ftp users (vsftpd). Tried the kicker applet ftpmonitor, but had some problems. It would also be nice to have it work properly in xfce
[18:10] <pogay> wols: i tryed a grub inst via chroot, the devices are not correct...
[18:11] <prince_jammys> jimmygoon: there has to a way to just set thunar as file manager for everything without having to hack around
[18:11] <kaushal_> any one here can help me with my config
[18:11] <wols> pogay: sdc8 can't be sdc2. that no livecd is causing
[18:11] <wols> !ask | kaushal_
[18:11] <Prose> looking for a good proxy server that likes forwarding https and long walks on Pentium 3 processors
[18:11] <jimmygoon> prince_jammys, psychocats has a script for thunar/nautilus replacement, but nautilus seems determined to launch with nautilus
[18:12] <kaushal_> wols, I have configured openvpn using Network Manager
[18:12] <wols> Prose: squid? privoxy? a socks proxy?
[18:12] <jimmygoon> prince_jammys, so when I go to Places -> folder it opens with thunar correctly
[18:12] <kaushal_> I am looking out for open vpn client config
[18:12] <nixnoob> jimmygoon: are there any errors when you run the script?
[18:12] <zachd> Hello everyone, I'm having a wireless problem with my dell studio 15
[18:12] <zachd> How would I go about to fixing it?
[18:12] <pogay> wols: when I'm in chroot, my root is recocnised as sdc8 instaad of sdc2, because I think, the reals route is sc.8
[18:12] <jimmygoon> nixnoob, none, and there are forum topics on this as well, with the same scripts mentioned, and the same lack of change in regards to nautilus/desktop
[18:13] <jimmygoon> so far no one has really come up with much it seems
[18:13] <nixnoob> jimmygoon: well enjoy feh for the time being im out to lunch
[18:13] <prince_jammys> jimmygoon: this in ONLY for folders on your ~/Desktop, right?
[18:13] <Prose> wols: well, those listed, do they handle http, https and ftp ?
[18:13] <zachd> I've already installed NDIS wrapper, but I'm not sure which drive I should install ans where I should get it from, can someone help me find which driver to install?
[18:14] <jimmygoon> prince_jammys, correct - (if I'm in thunar though at ~/Desktop they obviously still launch in thunar and if I goto Places->Desktop it launches in thuanr)
[18:14] <pogay> wols: grub seems to make kind of df / and take the nr. which is from the real root, which ist not wanted to install
[18:14] <indienick> so i just got this brand new toshiba p305 laptop and for some reason a cant get it to recognise the ath0 wireless, it shows up when i use the lspci command but thats about it any ideas?
[18:14] <wols> !madwifi | indienick
[18:14] <Prose> zachd: what is your wireless adapter ?
[18:14] <wols> indienick: what exact atheros chip?
[18:14] <jokoon> hello, is there some way I can use the locate comand but ti limit the search to a directory I want to specify ?
[18:14] <pogay> wols. the workarround was to install in grub cmd-line and make a link to the correct device.
[18:14] <zachd> how to I figure it out? I just got this computer recently
[18:15] <indienick> its the atheros nr242xx
[18:15] <linxeh> jokoon: one way is to pipe through grep - eg    locate foo  | grep directory
[18:15] <jimmygoon> jokoon, you could so something like locate <name> | grep <expected folder>
[18:15]  * jimmygoon was too slow
[18:15] <zachd> I've done lspci, and it's bcm4310
[18:15] <linxeh> snap ;-)
[18:15] <pogay> wols: now my qemu shows that grub is installed (via chroot).
[18:15] <indienick> ive looked for a madwifi solution through fourms but no luck
[18:15] <zachd> if that's what you mean
[18:15] <Prose> zachd: yeah, that's I mean :)
[18:15] <wols> indienick: that does not exist. exact type please
[18:15] <zachd> ok
[18:16] <zachd> so what do I do now?
[18:16] <Prose> well if you ude ndiswrapper, AFAIK, you can get use the drivers that windows would use
[18:16] <linxeh> jokoon: the other way is to use a regex to limit your directory, but thats probably out of scope
[18:16] <zachd> I've followed some instructions days ago, but none worked out
[18:16] <indienick> srry its the ar242x
[18:16] <Prose> zachd: actually,I saw an auto-ndiswrapper app a while back that looks for the driver automatically, I will try to find it again, brb
[18:16] <zachd> ok, thank you
[18:16] <wols> indienick: that's an icky one it uses a ar5007g driver iirc. check forums for it
[18:16] <jokoon> I have a mac machine, is there some way I can make the keyboard make a pipe character instead of a key I can choose ? or is there some way I can type the character thanks to some keyboard shortcut ?
[18:17] <kaushal_> wols, any clue please
[18:17] <wols> zachd: try ndisgtk
[18:17] <wols> kaushal_: not if you can't state a specific problem
[18:17] <Prose> zachd: http://easylinuxwifi.org/
[18:17] <php6th> back
[18:17] <zachd> thanks, I'll try to install and I'll report back
[18:17] <kaushal_> wols, I have configured openvpn client side using Network Manager on Ubuntu 8.04 Desktop Linux
[18:18] <kaushal_> I am looking out for openvpn client config
[18:18] <kaushal_> on my desktop
[18:18] <wols> kaushal_: that is not problem I can see.
[18:18] <Meeso> Hey, I want to know how to add a microphone, please help!
[18:18] <Prose> zachd: awesome, I will be gone, but if could message me a quick message to tell me how that worked out, it would be great (I am curious about the competence of the auto-ndiswrapper)
[18:18] <kaushal_> wols, the problem is every now and then i need to add route command whenever i need to connect to openvpn server
[18:18] <Meeso> ﻿Hey, I want to know how to add a microphone, please help!
[18:18] <Prose> zachd: but if you could *
[18:19] <wols> kaushal_: man interfaces. add a post-up script
[18:19] <sh_gh> Can i get KDE3 on ubuntu hardy?
[18:19] <Prose> Meeso: it's an USB or mini-jack ?
[18:20] <zachd> Prose, I will be sure to
[18:20] <evariste> I tried copying mp3s from a DVD (which was originally made on XP) onto my harddisk (on Ubuntu 8.04) and all of them seems to copy fine except for one of them. I get the message: "Operation not supported by backend". What does this mean?
[18:20] <Prose> zachd: thanks :)
[18:20] <evariste> I should note that I can actually play this particular mp3 from the DVD.
[18:21] <zachd> Prose, it said card is not yet supported
[18:21] <marshall> hi
[18:21] <marshall> how do I mount an ISO cd image?
[18:21] <jorge_> hi
[18:22] <Prose> zachd: oy! sorry then, what instructions did you follow that didn't work ?
[18:22] <prince_jammys> jimmygoon: mm. judging from what i've seen on the web, looks like you're stuck with ugly hacks
[18:22] <kaushal_> wols, can you give me examples
[18:23] <jimmygoon> prince_jammys, yeah, its too bad, I know its one of the more common gripes with gnome - things that you can't ocnfigure :/
[18:23] <Kiyuya> if I need help with an issue that has to do with wubi, should I take it here or is there a separate channel for wubi?
[18:23] <wols> Zongo_: via ndiswrapper it sorta is
[18:23] <zachd> Prose: This one recently, because I didn't feel like dealing with NDIS, and the section with "wget", the file is not available http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=434946
[18:23] <wols> !wubi
[18:23] <zachd> and the one with NDIS is coming in a minute
[18:23] <jellulabo> Hello all - I'm experiencing some problems with X correctly identifying/configuring my screen size. I have configured my screen to 1024x768. However, the login screen (GDM) is huge. Not sure where to start or if this is a bug. I have an nvidia card and I'm running Hardy.
[18:24] <dfgas> is there a replacement of xmms? cause i know xmms had a web interface
[18:24] <jimmygoon> jellulabo, you could try the new nvidia driver, searching for edid problems
[18:24] <kaushal> hi
[18:24] <jimmygoon> jellulabo, do you have the restricted nvidia driver installed?
[18:24] <kaushal> how can i add post up scripts
[18:24] <jellulabo> Yes
[18:24] <jimmygoon> jellulabo, also you can try installing and tinkering with nvidia-settings
[18:24] <kaushal> using interfaces
[18:24] <Prose> zachd: can you use the ndiswrapper frontend ?
[18:25] <jorge_> how i can install a windows software with wine
[18:25] <Cyberai> I just got my MP3 player to mount finally using "sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdb /mnt/MP3/", but the perms on everything are rwxr-xr-x. I can't seem to chmod them even as root. Can anyone help?
[18:25] <jimmygoon> jorge_, if you install wine from the repositories then you can just double click and install exe and if wine is compatible it will run
[18:25] <zachd> I'm not sure, but I'm fairly certain the reason it didn't work before was because I was using the wrong driver
[18:25] <jimmygoon> jorge_, check the wine app db to see if the application is compatible with wine
[18:26] <kharloss> hi there. any easy solution for setup a VPN between one host and some mobile users ?
[18:27] <jellulabo> This is the nvidia driver version that I have installed 96.43.05. Is this the most recent?
[18:27] <onthefence928> i used "sudo rmmod ehci_hcd" to disable usb 2.0 for something i was doing with a virtual box, but i need to know how to re activate my usb 2.0 driver? what's teh command?
[18:27] <sh_> Can i get kde3 on Ubuntu 8.04 hardy?
[18:27] <jorge_> i put all cd windows office in my linux how i can remove them
[18:27] <Prose> zachd: you can install a GUI that will make ndiswrapper more painless (such as Ndisgtk or NdisConfig that I've used with success)
[18:28] <prince_jammys> sh_: sudo apt-get(or aptitude) install kubuntu-desktop
[18:28] <Prose> zachd: and then you can point ndiswrapper (via frontend) to the windows driver for your card
[18:28] <zachd> alright
[18:28] <marcosa> hey, is there a program in ubuntu like Netlimiter ?
[18:28] <sh_> prince_jammys, thanks, i will try
[18:28] <zachd> cool, thanks.
[18:29] <Prose> zachd: have you found/got windows drivers for your card /
[18:29] <Prose> ?
[18:29] <Prose> zachd: and I am pretty sure you can get NdisConfig with synaptic or apt-get
[18:29] <jimmygoon> jorge_, I'm having a hard time understanding you. Office 2007 is very hard to get working, office 2003 is a bit easier
[18:30] <jokoon> I have a mac machine, is there some way I can make the keyboard make a pipe character instead of a key I can choose ? or is there some way I can type the character thanks to some keyboard shortcut ?
[18:30] <Tanubis> Hey everyone, I'm looking for an app that will monitor traffic on a wlan and tell me what different ip's are doing on it.  I've been using wireshark for this purpose, but it requires a lot of analysing packets to figure out what websites people are doing, etc.  Does anyone know of a program that will just show the IP's of users and a list of hosts they are currently talking to?
[18:30] <zachd> Prose: I haven't looked for a driver yet, because I had installed the wrong one before, and I just picked this back up again
[18:30] <Meeso> ﻿Hey, I want to know how to add a microphone, please help! PM me please
[18:30] <dog> hello! could anyone help me use my microphone?
[18:30] <jorge_> but how i  can remove them i try and i can't
[18:30] <Prose> Meeso: is it a USB or mini-jack mic ?
[18:31] <onthefence928> ﻿i used "sudo rmmod ehci_hcd" to disable usb 2.0 for something i was doing with a virtual box, but i need to know how to re activate my usb 2.0 driver? what's teh command?
[18:31] <jorge_> i'm in linux 1 manth
[18:31] <casdf> hi; i have a question regarding installing ubuntu onto a flash drive. i've read sites explaining how to do it, but from what i understand, it may be pretty suboptimal? things like swap partition seem to be not flash friendly
[18:31] <Prose> zachd: oh ok! well anyhow, when I used NdisConfig, I just pointed it to the windows driver and it worked quite fine
[18:31] <nmcbride> onthefence928: modprobe ehci_hcd
[18:31] <zachd> thanks a lot
[18:31] <zachd> I'll report back in a few minutes
[18:31] <Prose> cool :)
[18:31] <dog> i have a built-in mic in my inspiron 1420 and i dont know how to configure it
[18:31] <wols> casdf: yes
[18:31] <Tanubis> casdf yeah, it is pretty suboptimal.
[18:32] <casdf> so what about speed? slower than hdd?
[18:32] <Prose> dog, you can go to System - Preferences - Sound
[18:32] <beilabs> hey guys, do any of you know if amarok handles pictures for the ipod touch?
[18:32] <dog> ok
[18:32] <Prose> dog: and from there you can select different devices for Sound Capture (and use the Test to test)
[18:32] <Tanubis> casdf yes, it's much slower... also, most flash drives only allow reading/writing to them a relatively small number of times before they wear out compared to a hard drive.
[18:33] <Gnea> onthefence928: sudo modprobe ehci_hcd
[18:33] <IndyGunFreak> beilabs: are you saying can you add pics to your ipod, w/ amarok?
[18:33] <dog> thanks, bro
[18:33] <Prose> dog, no problem dude,  tell if it works (or not)
[18:33] <Tanubis> casdf say you can read/write to a flashdrive 10,000 times...  it works fine for several years doing that to move data around, but if you use it as swap space it will be accessing and storing stuff multiple times per second.  It'll wear out the drive quite quickly - mine lasted about 3 months.
[18:33] <usuario_> http://paste.ubuntu.com
[18:34] <casdf> Tanubis: ok, thanks for the info
[18:34] <dog> it's testing the pipeline; it says 'click OK to finish'.  should i be speaking into the mic?
[18:34] <Prose> dog yeah you should
[18:34] <casdf> Tanubis: is it possible to completely avoid "hdd" as swap?
[18:34] <catilin> how do y stop a service?
[18:34] <dog> didnt do anything
[18:35] <onthefence928> gnea, nmcbride, thanks
[18:35] <Prose> dog, did you try selecting other devices
[18:35] <casdf> Tanubis: like, is there some perhaps, ubuntu spinoff that is more geared for flash drives?
[18:35] <Prose> sometimes, it doesn't work on autodetect
[18:35] <Tanubis> casdf Not sure about an ubuntu spinoff, but there's definately debian spinoffs that will work fine with no swap space.
[18:36] <catilin> how do i configure mysql?
[18:36] <Blinkiz> It exist "aes" and "aes-i586". What should I use? I have a Intel Core 2 duo
[18:36] <dido> hello.how can i add live option to my skype for Linux .
[18:36] <Tanubis> casdf are you looking for a live environment or a persistent operating system?
[18:36] <dog> yeah none of them does anything
[18:36] <casdf> Tanubis: persistent
[18:36] <casdf> Tanubis: due to hdd failure on laptops
[18:36] <ledenby> an easy question!  where do i mount the floppy drive in 8.04 ??

[18:38] <tony_> how can i install .exe programs on ubuntu
[18:39] <Tanubis> tony_ install wine
[18:39] <dido> LORDFDisk:live skype
[18:39] <LordFDisk> dido, live skype ... never here of it I run skype
[18:39] <casdf> Tanubis: doesnt seem to make mention of the swap drive issues; i was there earlier
[18:39] <tony_> i have wine but im not sure what to do
[18:40] <dido> LORDFDisk:it exists in windows
[18:40] <RequinB4> tony_: double click the exe or in terminal: 'wine file.exe'
[18:40] <LordFDisk> oh the extra stuff ....
[18:40] <Prose> dog, or maybe your mic volume is set wrong: go to your master voume control (usually top right, it's where you set the volume for everything), right-click to preferences
[18:41] <onthefence928> is there a way for me to create a back-up of ubuntu such that allow me to freshly reinstall it and then use teh back-up to restore it to where it currently is? like all my appeareance setting and all my installed programs?
[18:41] <LordFDisk> dido, The Extra Stuff .... I don't know I like the slim down skyp ver ... so never worried about it

[18:43] <dido> LORDFDisk:how can i  make amsn works like msn of windows
[18:44] <Prose> zachd: I seriously can't help you with that one :( except you could try madwifi
[18:44] <Prose> zachd: go on their site and see if your card is supported
[18:44] <Kiyuya> I managed to remove a couple of important files from my wubi installation (root.disk for instance, among others), and my recovery program can't find the names of 3 files in said directory. picking out which file is which should be easy since they're so differently sized,
[18:44] <Kiyuya> I'd just need someone to go through their file list with me :) don't wanna spam up the channel so perhaps give me a shout and we'll go into pm?
[18:44] <zachd> alright, thanks, and the Ndisgtk is working fine, I just need the driver

[18:45] <dmsuperm1n> I have a bunch of picture directories that I used to have in windows, and they're filled with thumbs.db and desktop.ini files...What's the best way to safely get rid of all of them at once?
[18:45] <Prose> zachd: good luck !
[18:45] <zachd> thanks
[18:45] <zachd> (I'll need it)
[18:45] <dido> LORDFDisk:thank you.is there tips and tricks for Ubuntu 8.04
[18:45] <choudesh> dmsuperm1n, man tree, then grep for the files and pipe the pathes through rm
[18:46] <RequinB4> dmsuperm1n: to delete all the files in a directory, 'cd /path/to/directory' 'rm *'
[18:46] <Prose> dog: just make sure your mic isn't muted in the volume control (right-click and then Open Volume Control)
[18:46] <Prose> dog: good luck and it's really not a hard problem to solve, so don't dispair
[18:46] <Prose> depair
[18:46] <dmsuperm1n> RequinB4: I only wanted to delete thumbs.db and desktop.ini files
[18:46] <dmsuperm1n> choudesh: alright, sounds good
[18:46] <Tanubis> casdf I found a tutorial on getting linux persistent using pendrivelinux here: http://anojrs.blogspot.com/2008/04/life-without-hard-disk.html , and it seems to be distro independant.
[18:47] <LordFDisk> dido,  I would look for pdf's to read up on Ubuntu ... I myself just switched over from Mandriva So it's new to me as well
[18:47] <Meeso> I installed Ubuntu using wubi and gave ubuntu 30gbs I want to increase that. I have XP and ubuntu....
[18:47] <tabularasa> knubuntu w/ kde 4.1 how can i tell what .kde profile im currently accessing?
[18:47] <tabularasa> i had a bunch of configurations.. my kde crashed.. now its a default profile
[18:48] <dawid> Tabularasa : Go  to #kubuntu channel this channel is only about ubuntu
[18:49] <tabularasa> thanks
[18:49] <dido> LORDFDisk:if you need to help you i am here
[18:49] <dawid> hi all can anyone give me program that i can make programs for beginners
[18:49] <dawid> hi all can anyone give me program that i can make programs for beginners
[18:50] <roe_> beginners of what
[18:50] <wols> I told you
[18:50] <LordFDisk> dido,  Kewl Thanks
[18:50] <wols> roe_: programming
[18:50] <dawid>  sory i forgot :(
[18:50] <Davbo> When I try to run update-manager I get "ImportError: No module named gtk" despite seemingly having all the python-gtk installed as usual. This started after "rm -rf site-packages" which was probably (certainly) a bad idea. Any ideas? I've googled about
[18:50] <MrStei1> Hi! How to allow wine to access the hard drive ? I want to run hd_speed (similar to HDTune and HDTach)
[18:50] <prince_jammys> beginners at writing programs for beginning programmers
[18:50] <baptiste_> hi everybody
[18:51] <choudesh> Davbo, open terminal, apt-get update, apt-get upgrade
[18:51] <choudesh> !hi | baptiste_
[18:51] <nibsa1242b> how do I make cups-pdf not clobber (overwrite) pre-existing files with the same name?
[18:51] <baptiste_> thanks
[18:51] <juro> hi, is there a roadmap for Ubuntu available?
[18:51] <dawid>  then could any one give me program for beginners to make programs the best will be in c++
[18:51] <roe_> something wrong with your favorite text editor? any sufficiently complex IDE will shift focus from learning the language you want to learning how to use the IDE
[18:51] <choudesh> juro, what are you looking for?
[18:51] <dmsuperm1n> choudesh: so I have tree -fi | grep -i thumbs.db and that lists my thumbs.db files with paths, but when I try to append | rm to the end of it it says "rm: missing operand" how do you pipe the data to rm?
[18:52] <dido> LORDFDisk: i have many books talks about Ubuntu 8.04
[18:52] <Davbo> Still no luck choudesh
[18:52] <choudesh> dmsuperm1n, look up man rm , there is a parameter for pulling the value from the pipe
[18:52] <dawid>  then could any one give me program for beginners to make programs the best will be in c++
[18:52] <amrik> hi I would like evolution to display time in 24 hour format, not 12 hour AM/PM
[18:52] <juro> choudesh, I want to set up my working machine using the most recent Ubuntu, so I'd rather know that a new version is coming out next week (if it is) than install it and then having to do it all again ...
[18:52] <choudesh> Davbo, still get a gtk error when running apt-get update?
[18:52] <amrik> i know this has something to do with locales, can anyone help me?
[18:53] <prince_jammys> dmsuperm1n: you don't pipe data to rm. rm doesn't read from a stream
[18:53] <dawid>  then could any one give me program for beginners to make programs the best will be in c++
[18:53] <LordFDisk> dido,  Do you a really good one you think that might help me?
[18:53] <choudesh> juro, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IntrepidReleaseSchedule
[18:53] <amrik> juro: protip: if you partition your /home separately from your root / one can reinstall ubuntu without losing any data
[18:53] <frojnd> What codecs do I have to install to play DVD videos AND what drivere sdo I have to install for my intell graphic card ?
[18:53] <dmsuperm1n> choudesh: I didn't see anything about pipe, i looked
[18:53] <Davbo> Nah, I don't get it then. But I still get it trying to run update-manager after update & upgrade
[18:53] <roe_> dawid, up-pasting is really annoying especially when the first two times you said the same thing haven't left my screen yet, so please stop that
[18:53] <dmsuperm1n> prince_jammys: how can I pipe data to rm then?
[18:53] <prince_jammys> dmsuperm1n: you can't
[18:53] <M_o_0> visual studio express
[18:54] <prince_jammys> dmsuperm1n: to do what you want, you should probably use find
[18:54] <LordFDisk> dido,  lol I need more coffee ... really bad type-o's
[18:54] <M_o_0> lolz
[18:54] <juro> amrik, of course but then I'll have to reinstall all the software that I need and that increases the down time of my dev machine
[18:54] <dawid>  ok but roe_ could you help me ??
[18:54] <dido> LORDFDisk:i have book but how can i send it to you
[18:54] <misos> hey, i'm running the latest hardy on dell inspiron 6400, with intel core duo processor. Recently i noticed that cpu scaling isnt having an effect. http://pastebin.com/m32b2a3c6
[18:54] <roe_> dawid, are you coming from a windows world?
[18:54] <juro> choudesh, thank you
[18:54] <roe_> or a new computer user?
[18:54] <dawid> acctually yes :
[18:54] <dawid> ;p
[18:54] <LordFDisk> dido,  right click on my nick
[18:54] <roe_> yes what
[18:54] <frojnd> !dvd
[18:54] <dawid>  i'm coming from windows world
[18:54] <dawid>  ;p
[18:54] <LordFDisk> dido,  there's an option to send a file.
[18:54] <roe_> are you familiar with a program called notepad?
[18:55] <Gnea> dawid: most people do.
[18:55] <M_o_0> use visual studio, dawid.
[18:55] <dawid>  ahh anyway
[18:55] <M_o_0> it's free.
[18:55] <Gnea> !ot | M_o_0
[18:55] <frojnd> !medibuntu
[18:55] <z_> I have a bad internet connection. How can I move the downloaded files from /var/cache/apt/ into the newly installed system?
[18:55] <ScorpKing> i'm setting up a server on a dual core box. should i use the server kernel?
[18:55] <prince_jammys> dmsuperm1n: find /startind/path -name 'thumbs.db' -exec echo rm {} \;
[18:55] <Webu> How can I check out do a have a specific package installed and if, what's the version from CLI?
[18:56] <Gnea> z_: 'into'?
[18:56] <prince_jammys> dmsuperm1n: and if you like what you see, remove the echo to really delete them.
[18:56] <dawid>  <M_o_0>: I am using Ubuntu not Windows
[18:56] <LordFDisk> dido,  have that one... Thanks
[18:56] <roe_> if you have never programmed in C++ I would suggest using a plain text editor like notepad, many exist in the *nix world and everyone has a strong opinion about which one is best....Go Emacs!
[18:56] <wols> Webu: dpkg -l <package>
[18:56] <onthefence928> i'm trying to copy my /home to a USB harddrive and during the process it tell me there's an error, that it can't make a symbolic reference or something, any ideas? wols?
[18:56] <dmsuperm1n> prince_jammys: ah, awesome =)
[18:56] <z_> yes
[18:56] <Webu> wols, okey thanks, trying that.
[18:56] <wols> roe_: if he never programmed like it seems I wouldn't start with C++
[18:56] <Voxicles> Is there a specific channel for wine related problems?
[18:56] <Gnea> z_: no 'yes', could you please be more specific? what do you mean by 'into'? that's not descriptive at all.
[18:57] <ScorpKing> Voxicles: #winehq
[18:57] <Gnea> if you want to transfer the files over, such as via ftp, then say "how can i ftp the files over?"
[18:57] <dmsuperm1n> prince_jammys: it doesn't appear to go recursively
[18:57] <Voxicles> Scorpking, thx
[18:57] <roe_> nothing wrong with C++ as a starting language, maybe python, but many languages are C-style and C++, with a decent book, shouldn't be too hard to start with
[18:57] <prince_jammys> dmsuperm1n: oh, it does
[18:57] <dmsuperm1n> prince_jammys: find ./ -name 'thumbs.db' -exec echo rm {} \;
[18:57] <dido> LORDisk: you receive the book or not?
[18:58] <dmsuperm1n> prince_jammys: all I get is "rm ./thumbs.db"
[18:58] <Gnea> dmsuperm1n: why ./?
[18:58] <php6th> Help, how to transfer files to my pocket PC via USB?
[18:58] <dmsuperm1n> Gnea: I'm in the directory I want to travel down
[18:58] <LordFDisk> dido,  naw ... I have that one ... so thank you
[18:58] <prince_jammys> dmsuperm1n: find . -name thumbs.db -exec rm {} \;
[18:58] <roe_> you don't want to start too high level, you deprive yourself of some fundamental knowledge, I say work up not down
[18:58] <Gnea> dmsuperm1n: then make it .
[18:58] <Tanubis> anyone know of a program that simplifies wireshark logs to a more human readable format?
[18:58] <prince_jammys> dmsuperm1n: err, put the echo back just to be safe
[18:58] <ScorpKing> find ./ -iname 'thumbs.db' | xargs mv /somedir/
[18:59] <prince_jammys> nope
[18:59] <dmsuperm1n> prince_jammys: echo was there, i forgot to type it
[18:59] <dmsuperm1n> Gnea: same deal
[18:59] <z_> that pckcache.bin and srcpckcache.bin from /var/cache/apt - I want to save it and to use it then again after the re-installation
[18:59] <onthefence928> !clone
[18:59] <dido> LORDFDisk: your welcome
[18:59] <dmsuperm1n> prince_jammys: yeah, making it just "." still only shows one output
[18:59] <Gnea> dmsuperm1n: try this then: find . -name "thumbs.db" -exec rm {} \;
[18:59] <misos> any help for the cpu scaling problem?
[18:59] <z_> 0.2$ per each mb - that's a painfull price!
[19:00] <dmsuperm1n> nevermind, it was Thumbs.db in the other directories
[19:00] <prince_jammys> dmsuperm1n: well, are you sure there really are thumbs.db files in there?
[19:00] <dmsuperm1n> how can I make the -name case insensitive? -i ?
[19:00] <prince_jammys> dmsuperm1n: replace -name with -iname
[19:00] <onthefence928> !automate
[19:00] <dmsuperm1n> prince_jammys: ah. gotchya
[19:00] <dmsuperm1n> prince_jammys: all is well now
[19:00] <ScorpKing> dmsuperm1n: find ./ -iname 'thumbs.db' | xargs mv /somedir/ ;) i never like to use rm like that
[19:00] <php6th> Help, how to transfer files to my pocket PC via USB?
[19:01] <geronimo9> exit
[19:01] <prince_jammys> xargs is broken. use -exec
[19:01] <Gnea> z_: just copy the files over to another device then
[19:01] <dmsuperm1n> ScorpKing: yeah, me either but that's why I just read the output before actually running it
[19:01] <ScorpKing> agreed
[19:01] <dmsuperm1n> prince_jammys: awesome...and I get most of it..the only things I don't get are the ending bit. what does \; mean?
[19:01] <z_> But will the system "recognize" it?
[19:02] <dmsuperm1n> prince_jammys: and I assume {} means the data found by the find
[19:02] <theRealBall> hello who's in charge here
[19:02] <Gnea> z_: if you copy them back, sure
[19:02] <theRealBall> someone *kick me
[19:02] <Meeso> ﻿I installed Ubuntu using wubi and gave ubuntu 30gbs I want to increase that. I have XP and ubuntu....
[19:02] <Gnea> theRealBall: why?
[19:02] <prince_jammys> dmsuperm1n: means the semicolon terminates the -exec command. it's a literal semicolon passed to find, quoted so that the shell doesn't treat it as it normally would
[19:02] <theRealBall> i wanna see if my irc can defend against kicks
[19:02] <onthefence928> i'm looking to copy my /home to /media/disk/ubuntu_backup what would be the command to use (in full) that would gaurantee a full copy?
[19:02] <z_> This time it will be my second attempt...
[19:02] <Gnea> theRealBall: it can't.
[19:02] <theRealBall> Gnea been a bad person lately just kick me
[19:02] <jmichelsen> disconnect
[19:02] <amrik> Hi I would like evolution to display in 24 hour format; how can I do this?
[19:03] <theRealBall> don't worry all on good terms kick me
[19:03] <dmsuperm1n> prince_jammys: ah, so otherwise it wouldn't know that I was actually done with my command?
[19:03] <Gnea> theRealBall: just join your own room and kick yourself
[19:03] <natebrun> hello, i need some help
[19:03] <indienick> ok im thinking about getting a new hp dv9810us laptop and i want to know if the wireless will work oob i didnt get much feedback from google but any thoughts
[19:03] <Lenaud01> I can get my webcam to work with apps like cheese and stuff but not for kino or any other recording app
[19:03] <prince_jammys> dmsuperm1n: it's  part of find -exec syntax, and needs to be quoted either as \; ';' or ";" , so the shell doesn't treat as the end of ITS command
[19:04] <natebrun> i put my ubuntu 8.04 hard drive in another computer, now when it boots, the sreen stay black and i can access a terminal like thing, but no gnome desktop or anything
[19:04] <natebrun> help???
[19:04] <z_> Gnea: offtopic answer: Is it tru than somewhere at USA or Europe unlimited internet connection costs about 25$ per month? And there exists spots for free internet access thru wi-fi?
[19:04] <z_> ...offtopic question
[19:05] <natebrun> you can get free wifi at some reasutanrts (starbucks) and at most hotles now
[19:05] <dmsuperm1n> prince_jammys: gotchya
[19:05] <natebrun> but not sure about that europe thing...
[19:05] <Jespor> and mac S
[19:05] <Gnea> z_: ...which should be asked in #ubuntu-offtopic
[19:05]  * eth01 would give anybody free wireless in this channel :)
[19:05] <Jespor> and mac D
[19:05] <eth01> but you'd have to live in Manchester, UK for that :)
[19:06] <natebrun> any help with my question?
[19:06] <dmsuperm1n> prince_jammys: just so I know, could I have also done it by using tree -fi | grep 'thumbs.db' | xargs rm {} or something of the like?
[19:06] <skygenetic> anyone
[19:06] <skygenetic> can help me here with the ubuntu

[19:06] <Gnea> !anyone | skygenetic
[19:06] <dmsuperm1n> prince_jammys: is there a reason for that?
[19:06] <eth01> once is enough
[19:06] <natebrun> skygenetic i can try
[19:06] <z_> ok
[19:07] <skygenetic> MY acer Aspire 5920G : using Ubuntu 8.xx , Only can hear voice while plug in headset instead of using my laptop speaker
[19:07] <prince_jammys> dmsuperm1n: several. that grep expression matches files where PART of the name is thumbs.db, and if you ever try it with filenames with spaces, xargs will mess it up, and potentially (if you're unlucky) delete wrong files
[19:08] <skygenetic> is there any solution for that ?
[19:08] <Gnea> skygenetic: sounds like your laptop has bad speakers
[19:08] <z_> after the suspend mode, ubuntu 8.04 do not see my /dev/ttyUSB0 even after unplugging? Something trivial?
[19:08] <skygenetic> is a surround speaker
[19:08] <skygenetic> it works in vista

[19:09] <z_> Is it true, that kernel actually do not idles, and cause my celeron processor to spend lots of energy?
[19:09] <Kernel> i pretty much want to purge all settings and start a firewall from scratch using ufw

[19:10] <z_> PPPD Options = crtcts multilink usepeerdns lock defaultroute -jv mru 128 mtu 128
[19:11] <goldelox> i dont remember what it was called but i copied it from my system folder in vista to my documents in ubuntu
[19:11] <z_> mru and mtu in wvdial.conf - is the syntax right?
[19:12] <goldelox> its the wireless driver that didnt get transfered, not the driver for my modem
[19:12] <wols> goldelox: why would vista drivers work for ubuntu?

[19:28] <prince_jammys> Meeso: that won't install anything. it'll just extract the files.
[19:28] <dabbu> users $HOME/.dmrc file is being ignored..........................this error is shown when i login into ubuntu
[19:28] <jmichelsen> prabu: or cli apt-get install pidgin
[19:28] <Meeso> ok
[19:28] <kristofer> yo
[19:28] <Meeso> hoes do I install it, I extracted it
[19:28] <prabu> i will check tat . brb
[19:28] <prince_jammys> dabbu: ls -l ~/.dmrc
[19:29] <Meeso> *how
[19:29] <enterneo> hello
[19:29] <dabbu> ﻿prince_jammys:what
[19:29] <prince_jammys> dabbu: what does that command show in a terminal?
[19:29] <jmichelsen> Meeso: what is the tar?
[19:29] <prince_jammys> Meeso: depends on what's in there
[19:29] <Meeso> it is gparted
[19:29] <Meeso> hmm
[19:29] <dabbu> prince:-rw-rw---- 1 xxx xxx 28 2008-08-11 21:40 /home/xxx/.dmrc
[19:29] <prince_jammys> Meeso: there might be a README
[19:30] <dabbu> ﻿prince_jammys:-rw-rw---- 1 xxx xxx 28 2008-08-11 21:40 /home/xxx/.dmrc

[19:30] <kristofer> I have this wmp11 v4.. it works fine as long as I specify the essid. is there a way to make network manager scan the available networks so I can select one though?

[19:30] <Meeso> i found the read me
[19:31] <Meeso> sudo apt-get install gparted
[19:31] <jmichelsen> Meeso:  read it ;)
[19:31] <prince_jammys> dabbu: chmod 600 ~/.dmrc

[19:31] <dabbu> ﻿prince_jammys:why this problem occured
[19:32] <jmichelsen> atrus: do cat FILE | less
[19:32] <prince_jammys> dabbu: i don't know, but my dmrc has different permissions. the chmod command will change them
[19:32] <atrus> jmichelsen: that works, but the other way used to too...
[19:32] <prince_jammys> dabbu: did you change the permissions of files in your home?
[19:32] <prabu> hello
[19:32] <jmichelsen> atrus: try MORE
[19:32] <jmichelsen> atrus: should have similar usage to less see if that works
[19:33] <atrus> jmichelsen: more is a little too limited for what i'm doing...
[19:33] <prabu> there r many pidgins
[19:33] <atrus> less usually works, but once in a while this comes up and i can't figure out why

[19:45] <wols> either you know a mirror or you are SOL
[19:46] <dabbu> wolswols:what i have done right now is that i have completely removed samba
[19:46] <SitUbuntuSit> does anyone know of a plugin for pidgin that actually works when dealing with displaying which songs you're currently playing in audacious... seems like most don't work at the moment.
[19:46] <dabbu> wols:i will install it again and try again ..sorry 4 thast
[19:46] <dabbu> wola:that
[19:46] <LordFDisk> oh ... will it frag my system with those Errors ?
[19:47] <wols> LordFDisk: no. you just can't install stuff from that repo
[19:47] <wols> until it'S fixed again
[19:47] <LordFDisk> wols,  is there a way for me to remove them
[19:48] <Kovert>  I am using pureadmin for pureftpd but when i create a virtual user robert and try to login I get [WARNING] Authentication failed for user [robert] any ideas?
[19:48] <wols> LordFDisk: remove WHAT?
[19:48] <Flare183> Kovert: wrong password maybe?
[19:48] <Kovert> no thats isnt the case
[19:48] <Kovert> I have tried several
[19:48] <Flare183> LordFDisk: You mean remove the repo from your sources?
[19:49] <kristofer> LordFDisk, I had that issue while on a public access point because dns redirects all requests to a particular machine forcing people to register before using it.. in other words, it may be a dns issue?
[19:50] <LordFDisk> Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead I get that everytime I update my repository indexes
[19:50] <LordFDisk> is there a way to stop it from saying that?
[19:50] <ajhtiredwolf> Hey, I believe that there is a way to make your graphics card handle the load of your webcam, but I can't remember how, or find it on google, any one know?
[19:51] <kristofer> anyone have a wmp11 v4 wireless card?
[19:51] <wols> !anyone | kristofer
[19:51] <LordFDisk> And Thank you guy's for your help and time.
[19:51] <prabu> hello
[19:52] <wols> LordFDisk: edit your sources.list but I wouldn't
[19:52] <Kovert> I did that!
[19:52] <kristofer> wols, probably because the first attempt yielded no results, so I thought I'd ask a more general question
[19:52] <LordFDisk> thats how I got this ... went off a web site
[19:52] <prabu> any 1 usin yahoo messenger here ?
[19:52] <wols> kristofer: bad move
[19:53] <Meeso> where do I find gparted?
[19:53] <Meeso> I installed it
[19:53] <Vorondil> Howdy all, quick question.  I have a machine that used to have three storage devices connected to it.  /dev/sda, sdb, and sdc.  The operating system is installed on a partition in sdc.  I've removed the device identified as /dev/sdb.  If I reboot, will sdc get bumped up to sdb and confuse things?  Should I preemptively make changes to /etc/fstab?
[19:53] <wols> Meeso: on the live cd. in your favourite ubuntu repo, etc
[19:53] <wols> Meeso: dpkg -L gparted
[19:53] <prince_jammys> Meeso: just type gparted in your terminal
[19:54] <Meeso> Since GParted can be a weapon of mass destruction only root may run it.
[19:54] <Meeso> wtf?
[19:54] <svh> has anyone played warzone 2100
[19:54] <prince_jammys> or alt f2 , and then gparted. probably /usr/bin/gparted
[19:54] <LordFDisk> wols, Thats how I got this in the first place ... I went of a web site copy and pasted
[19:55] <wols> LordFDisk: and that was wrong for medibuntu
[19:55] <Flare183> Meeso: Yeap that is right
[19:55] <Flare183> !mediubuntu
[19:55] <Flare183> crap
[19:55] <Flare183> !medibuntu
[19:55] <wols> Meeso: only root can access partitions directly. that's a GOOD thing
[19:56] <Meeso> ugh

[19:58] <prince_jammys> Meeso: generic menu naming is a bit ... weird.
[19:58] <Kiyuya> I managed to remove a couple of important files from my wubi installation (root.disk for instance, among others), and my recovery program can't find the names of 3 files in said directory. picking out which file is which should be easy since they're so differently sized,

[20:16] <wols> linenoise: there is no beryl
[20:17] <prince_jammys> dabbu: for the most part, no.
[20:17] <wols> dabbu: not really. just takes more ram. e17 plus gnome basically
[20:17] <dabbu> ﻿prince_jammys:do you have ever used that
[20:17] <prince_jammys> dabbu: a little bit
[20:17] <nagyv1> hello! I'm trying to build mozilla on my own, it requires alsa. Which is the necessary package I should install?

[20:18] <joaopinto> nagyv1, apt-cache search alsa dev

[20:21] <LordFDisk> Now to read on how to use sudo to edit a file. lol
[20:21] <prince_jammys> dabbu: it's a package that contains the Human theme, I think. and other stuff, like the splash screen
[20:21] <td123> gvk: nvm, its not in the repo :)

[20:23] <Meeso> ﻿sudo apt-get install <package-name-goes-here>
[20:23] <Meeso> lol
[20:23] <Meeso> wait
[20:23] <prince_jammys> Messo: you need sudo to do administrative stuff, like installing software or changing system configuration.
[20:23] <Meeso> E: Package freeciv has no installation candidate
[20:23] <td123> gvk: I recommend that you use fasm though, even though its not in the repos
[20:23] <prince_jammys> !info freeciv
[20:24] <ompaul> meeso now do this apt-cache search freeciv
[20:24] <ompaul> messo and then put two and two together

[20:25] <Meeso> ok
[20:25] <prince_jammys> sudo apt-get install freeciv-client-gtk

[20:25] <Meeso> ok

[20:26] <Kiyuya> porncake: system wide or only in certain applications?
[20:27] <dabbu> ﻿prince_jammys:can u help me to configure samba to share file with windows
[20:27] <Lunis> Two quick ones. First: I installed KDE and now I have two copies of almost all KDE apps in my Main Menu, and I can't seem to find a way to make that not happen. Any suggestions?
[20:27] <Kiyuya> for instance, can you hear the login sounds?
[20:27] <porncake> system wide
[20:27] <DocMabuse> hallo
[20:27] <RANDOM_5000> hi all
[20:27] <prince_jammys> dabbu: i've never used samba. ask a detailed question to the channel and someone will likely help
[20:27] <Kiyuya> okay, I'm not too savvy but... I take it you've already tried starting alsamixer and making sure none of the volumes are in the bottom, right? I dunno what else to try, sadly :\
[20:27] <Meeso> THanks
[20:28] <porncake> yeah i tried that
[20:28] <porncake> and reinstalled alsa
[20:28] <prince_jammys> Lunis: hide the apps you don't want from the gnome menu, and the same with the K menu
[20:28] <RANDOM_5000> I thought I would be able to run linux compatible software straight from ubuntu, just click it and it run, why is this not the case with the game - Tibia ??? I have not tried any other games or software
[20:28] <Kiyuya> okay, then I sadly can't help you with problems that are system wide, cause I've only found and solved conflict issues :\
[20:28] <Pff> What client do you find best for streaming live video from the internet?
[20:28] <Lunis> prince_jammys, how do you mean?
[20:28] <dabbu> ﻿prince_jammys:so how u share your linux file with windows
[20:29] <prince_jammys> dabbu: I don't
[20:29] <RANDOM_5000> I thought I would be able to run linux compatible software straight from ubuntu, just click it and it run, why is this not the case with the game - Tibia ??? I have not tried any other games or software
[20:29] <Kovert> [daren]: ftp
[20:29] <Kovert> dabbu: winscp
[20:29] <prince_jammys> dabbu: you mean in a network right?
[20:29] <dabbu> yes
[20:29] <prince_jammys> !samba | dabbu: maybe this helps
[20:30] <dabbu> ﻿Kovert:what is winscp
[20:30] <wols> dabbu: smbclient -L 127.0.0.1
[20:30] <Kiyuya> RANDOM_5000: I'm not familiar with tibia, but did hte game you downloaded come pre-compiled or do you only have source code?
[20:30] <wols> !winscp
[20:30] <RANDOM_5000> it was already pre-compiled
[20:30] <DocMabuse> !ssh
[20:30] <Kiyuya> do you have all the libraries it requires?
[20:30] <DocMabuse> !Nvidia
[20:30] <prince_jammys> Lunis: did you remove gnome or do you have both?
[20:31] <Lunis> prince_jammys, I have both, but only Gnome has the problem of doubles of most KDE apps. XFCE doesn't, and KDE doesn't
[20:31] <DocMabuse> !x-server
[20:31] <RANDOM_5000> i seem to have everything it requires to run, but the only help ive seen yet far, is that it wont work with my video card ( ATI Radeon 7000 ) I have tried wine with no luck yet on how to make it work in wine either
[20:31] <frojnd> I won't stop askinguntill someone helps me set up my 2 partitions. During installation I named them as /disk_a and /disk_b and now I can't write to them. How can I write to them chmod 777 -R /disk_a didn't help. Any ideas ?
[20:31] <prince_jammys> Lunis: the menu implementation is sort of buggy in my experience. have you tried hiding the stuff you don't want using the menu editor?
[20:32] <Kovert> frojnd: ATI cards are a bit dodgy
[20:32] <DocMabuse> excuse me anybody now how can i stopped the  x-server for installing the Nvidia Driver?
[20:32] <frojnd> Kovert: what does ATI with partitions ?
[20:32] <dabbu> ﻿Kovert:winscp is like samba or what
[20:32] <Kiyuya> RANDOM_5000 sadly can't help you :\
[20:33] <prince_jammys> frojnd: what type of partitions are they?
[20:33] <Kovert> frojnd: thoght you had ATI video
[20:33] <frojnd> prince_jammys: ext3
[20:33] <RANDOM_5000> I am unable to get a new card, and i dont have one laying around, i was hoping i would be able to play this game either just running it like it says to do, or to just download and install wine
[20:33] <prince_jammys> ie. what file system
[20:33] <Kovert> dabbu: like sftp
[20:33] <DocMabuse>  excuse me anybody now how can i stopped the  x-server for installing the Nvidia Driver?
[20:33] <Lunis> prince_jammys, not yet. I was hoping there was a more graceful way. I figure gnome is reading two different menu lists, and KDE is writing two different ones. Perhaps like Windows' All Users folder?
[20:33] <RANDOM_5000> I am also unable to play anything else that requires wine, even after installing everything it needs
[20:33] <wols> RANDOM_5000: glxinfo |grep direct
[20:34] <Vorondil> DocMabuse: ctrl+alt+backspace will kill your X for you, if that's what you mean.
[20:34] <RANDOM_5000> direct rendering: Yes
[20:34] <frojnd> prince_jammys: ext3 ?
[20:34] <RANDOM_5000> thats what it shows
[20:34] <prince_jammys> Lunis: i don't have gnome now, but i remember the gnome menus used to give lots of headaches. eventually i started editing the files/dirs by hand.
[20:34] <wols> RANDOM_5000: the card is VERY old. many games might need a better opengl as the card provides?
[20:35] <Lunis> prince_jammys, sometimes grace is not an option ;) thank you for the help :)
[20:35] <RANDOM_5000> i played this game on another linux distro, just by bringing it up, if another linux distro needs less req. then i should just move to it, if linux wont do what i want
[20:36] <prince_jammys> frojnd: and they're mounted, but not writable?
[20:36]  * Lunis slaps RANDOM_5000 
[20:36] <wols> RANDOM_5000: what errors does it give?
[20:36] <wols> the linux version if at all possible
[20:36] <Lunis> RANDOM_5000, you said yourself the game doesn't work with your video card
[20:36] <DocMabuse>  excuse me anybody now how can i stopped the  x-server for installing the Nvidia Driver?ubuntu i have installed
[20:36] <frojnd> prince_jammys: yes
[20:36] <RANDOM_5000> the thing closes automatically, with an output to my terminal
[20:36] <Lunis> DocMabuse, did you try uninstalling xserver-xorg-video-nvidia?
[20:36] <Kovert> DocMabuse: ctl alt backspace
[20:37] <prince_jammys> frojnd: are they listed in /etc/fstab?
[20:37] <RANDOM_5000> it works in other linux distros besides ubuntu
[20:37] <wols> RANDOM_5000: start it in a xterm. what does it say?
[20:37] <Vorondil> DocMabuse: Scroll up, and pay attention.
[20:37] <Lunis> DocMabuse, are you wanting to install the nvidia driver or get rid of it?
[20:37] <wols> DocMabuse: what videocard?
[20:38] <Vorondil> He wants to stop his X server so the nvidia installer script doesn't bark at him.
[20:38] <RANDOM_5000> sorry, i got kicked, how do i change to directory of it, and attempt to start it
[20:38] <wols> Vorondil: which is foolish
[20:38] <Rohs> what programs do people use for ipod sync
[20:38] <Vorondil> I didn't say it wasn't, but it's his crap.
[20:38] <Rohs> and music organising
[20:39] <Lunis> DocMabuse, Ctrl+Alt+F1, then log in, then do `sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop'
[20:39] <Kovert> hummm songbird is promissing
[20:39] <wols> Vorondil: well generally we don't help people breaking their systems intentionally
[20:39] <wols> so nvidia.com driver support is rare here
[20:39] <frojnd> prince_jammys: yes
[20:39] <johninlex> hey are there any dev for 8.10 in here
[20:39] <frojnd> prince_jammys: sorry for delay: here is the output of /etc/fstab: http://pastebin.ca/1166674
[20:39] <wols> DocMabuse: nvidia.com drivers will break your ubuntu
[20:39] <Kovert> Rohs: got that songbird?
[20:40] <frith> hi, how can i find out which process is holding a port open?
[20:40] <ds[de]> wols: is the nvidia-nonfree driver from universe/multiverse the same that you can get from nvidia.com ?
[20:40] <eyeslocal> my amarok doesn't have options for me to select a database method in the 'collection database' section (it actually doesn't even have that section with with 'collection database' dropdown. What do I do to make it appear?
[20:40] <Lunis> DocMabuse, listen to wols
[20:40] <RANDOM_5000> how do i try and start this game tibia through the terminal so i can look for the errors?
[20:40] <Lunis> frith, netstat
[20:40] <RANDOM_5000> i have changed the terminal to the directory, but how do i make it start it
[20:40] <wols> ds[de]: yes
[20:41] <abuyazan> hi
[20:41] <hosk> i have an AMD i686 processor, do I want restricted-modules 386 or restricted-modules x86_64
[20:41] <abuyazan> how can i convert rmm files to mp3
[20:41] <abuyazan> rm to mp3
[20:41] <wols> hosk: i386
[20:41] <ds[de]> wols: and I take it the driver has led to a lot of problems in the past? I just installed it a few days ago, that's why I'm asking
[20:41] <hosk> wols, thanks!
[20:41] <wols> ds[de]: sometimes
[20:41] <bcmiller3> random, just type the games name
[20:41] <Lunis> hosk, is your CPU 64 bit?
[20:41] <td123> does anyone know an easy way to put dban (boot and nuke iso) on a usb drive?
[20:41] <wols> ds[de]: you mean the nvidia.com one? it overwrites files and is working besids the package management which is bad
[20:42] <RANDOM_5000> i type the games name, but nothing happens, it says command not found
[20:42] <Lunis> abuyazan, converting from a lossy format to another lossy format can really make a file sound bad, beware that
[20:42] <wols> !ot | td123
[20:42] <prince_jammys> frojnd: mm. i'm not familiar with the 'relatime' option. i recommend you paste one of the lines in the channel along with your question, for a faster answer. (just one line, since they're both the same).
[20:42] <ds[de]> wols: the one I got via apt-get to play quake =)
[20:42] <ds[de]> wols: but overwriting files = :F
[20:42] <frith> Lunis, i can't see what process is holding a port open form that can i?  just what ports are listening
[20:43] <abuyazan> Lunis, no problem i need the format mp3 for this file, which application can i use
[20:43] <RANDOM_5000> i type the games name, but nothing happens, it says command not found
[20:43] <mgolisch> i asked that before but is there some advanced tutorials/guides or good documentation on usplash?
[20:43] <Lunis> frith, i don't remember right off, but i thought there was a switch that told you
[20:43] <Gnea> !repeat | RANDOM_5000
[20:43] <frojnd> as prince_jammys said, here is the line of my partition that I can't write: UUID=21d87054-8158-4edd-9deb-678acb30f561 /disk_a         ext3    relatime        0       2   Any ideas how can I modify this so I could write to it ?
[20:43] <Lunis> abuyazan, don't know actually :P
[20:43] <frith> Lunis, oh wait you can
[20:43] <bcmiller3> random do you have a start icon for the game?
[20:44] <bcmiller3> look at the icon properties and type that in the terminal
[20:44] <Druui> greetings all
[20:44] <RANDOM_5000> i dont have an icon for the game, and when i type it in terminal, after changing the directory, simply the name, it says command not found
[20:44] <prince_jammys> frojnd: you can read from it and view the contents, right?
[20:44] <vnix> I have problem with "the interface does not exist"

[20:46] <wols> rambo3: not supporting some opengl feature. as I said
[20:47] <IndyGunFreak> d4rkmonkey: that file will take a major quality hit, cutting it like that.
[20:47] <prince_jammys> d4rkmonkey: heh. that's huge. i'm amazed that facebook allows that
[20:48] <d4rkmonkey> IndyGunFreak, yeah, its going to be uploaded to facebook anyways, I don't think quality is much of an issue anyways

[20:55] <Shane-S> my ubunut system just lost internet, it was just on 3 seconds ago, how can I find out what seems to be killing my nic?
[20:55] <wols> !anyone < db92
[20:55] <wols> !anyone | db92
[20:55] <Flare183> hehe
[20:55] <orgthingy> db92 : stick with gnome, its better
[20:55] <Gnea> j0nr: okay, can you pastebin the syslog entries for it please?
[20:55] <prince_jammys> Lunis: diff dir1 dir2   , for example
[20:55] <Lunis> prince_jammys, I think I just found the "problem". Having KDE4 installed gives a kde4/ apps menu in /usr/share/applications, in addition to a kde/ folder from KDE3. Which causes doubles of some KDE apps
[20:55] <db92> orgthingy, depends on how one grasps better :P
[20:56] <j0nr> Gnea: how do i do that please
[20:56] <prince_jammys> Lunis: ha! soon you will be editing them by hand :)
[20:56] <Gnea> !pastebin | j0nr
[20:56] <linenoise> Shane-S: probably you want to look at your ifconfig/route output before and after connectivity interruption.
[20:56] <j0nr> Gnea: I mean the syslog, not pastebin
[20:56] <Lunis> prince_jammys, THE PROPHECY!
[20:56] <linenoise> Shane-S: if you get link-down's, it could mean your uplink is down... (You've asked a very difficult question... )
[20:56] <Gnea> j0nr: oh. tail -n500 /var/log/syslog
[20:56] <Shane-S> linenoise: thanks
[20:56] <Lunis> prince_jammys, it has come to PASS!
[20:57] <prince_jammys> Lunis: i predict you will pick one desktop manager and zap the other. i wonder which will go ....
[20:57] <bcmiller3> is there a way to send the !notices only to the person who needs them?
[20:57] <vnix> Gnea, which one I should look into?
[20:57] <d4rkmonkey> Whats a program I can use to open .avi? Movie player won't open it, and Kino gives me an error when trying to open the video
[20:58] <Gnea> vnix: whichever one suits your situation.
[20:58] <linenoise> d4rkmonkey: vlc is another one
[20:58] <linenoise> d4rkmonkey: mplayer, vlc, kaffeine
[20:58] <orgthingy> where can I find something to search in "Applications" menu?
[20:58] <d4rkmonkey> linenoise, k I'll try those
[20:58] <Flare183> !avi | d4rkmonkey
[20:58] <Lunis> prince_jammys, I would, but it's a multi-user system, and the wife tends to be fond of KDE. I wonder if i can't add some sort of exception. i can edit main menu properties from within the gconf backend can't i?
[20:58] <j0nr> Gnea: http://pastebin.com/m7fa9a719
[20:58] <orgthingy> because i always forget where i saved the program
[20:58] <prince_jammys> d4rkmonkey: have you ever been able to open one? you may be missing some libs
[20:58] <joaopinto> d4rkmonkey, those are players, not editors like kino
[20:58] <Rohs> Kovert: Wow songbird is great, thanks for the link
[20:58] <deepfriedsquirr1> ﻿If I aptitude --download-only openoffice on a 64 bit version of ubuntu, will it get x86_64 packages or will they be i386 so I can transfer them to my friend's computer, which lacks Internet access?
[20:58] <Flare183> Songbird is pretty cool
[20:59] <prince_jammys> Lunis: i don't know. i'm not a gnome guy myself
[20:59] <orgthingy> Songbird takes a lot of ram
[20:59] <Rohs> is there a good IM that does webcam yet (msn)
[20:59] <d4rkmonkey> prince_jammys, well I've been able to play some movies that I... completely legally aquired... that are in .avi format, so I don't know what the issue is with the videos I'm trying to shrink now...
[20:59] <joaopinto> Rohs, amsn
[20:59] <Rohs> that wasn't that good
[20:59] <Flare183> Rohs: amsn
[20:59] <Rohs> it looks a bit messy
[20:59] <Flare183> wow
[20:59] <orgthingy> Rohs : Emesene
[20:59] <Lunis> prince_jammys, what do you use?
[20:59] <d4rkmonkey> joaopinto, yeah I know, I'm trying to figure out if the video is even playable or if theres something wrong with it
[20:59] <Shane-S> hmm my ifconfig is not showing any errors, drops, opr overruns, would that lend my connectivty issues to software?
[20:59] <ds[de]> Rohs: can you access your ipod with songbird?
[20:59] <prince_jammys> Lunis: fluxbox or kde
[20:59] <joaopinto> emesene supports videos ?
[21:00] <Rohs> ds[de]: i would try but it comming tommorow
[21:00] <ds[de]> Rohs: I see
[21:00] <prince_jammys> Lunis: right now, no X
[21:00] <oklinux> how do I install flash in mozilla firefox
[21:00] <Rohs> old one got filled with water
[21:00] <vnix> Gnea, I am first time here maybe u can guide me a while.
[21:00] <Rohs> ill let you know tommorow if you want?
[21:00] <deepfriedsquirr1> How do I use the --download-only option for apt-get?
[21:00] <wols> Shane-S: depends. wlan?
[21:00] <Lunis> prince_jammys, KDE's too heavy for me really. And I tend to like the GTK themes better. Fluxbox is really nice when I'm doing something that requires most of the CPU
[21:00] <ds[de]> Rohs: would be nice =)
[21:00] <vnix> Gnea, I just need a little guide then I can do it my own
[21:00] <orgthingy> oklinux : download Micromedia Flash from add/remove (just search "flash"
[21:00] <Rohs> ds[de]: are you a developer?
[21:00] <Rohs> for it
[21:00] <ds[de]> Rohs: no
[21:01] <prince_jammys> Lunis: yeah, i'm mostly fluxbox now, everything is the way i want it. i like kde, but it's slow. i'm not fond of gnome
[21:01] <d4rkmonkey> in mplayer when I tried to play the file, it says "Could not open required DirectShow codec qdv.dll" any idea where I could get this?
[21:01] <Shane-S> wols: hardwired into the same Cable modem router as this system
[21:01] <wols> !w32codecs
[21:01] <wols> Shane-S: and what is the issue?
[21:01] <Lunis> prince_jammys, I love XFCE but xfdesktop is absolute crap imho
[21:02] <prince_jammys> Lunis: fluxbox works pretty well with kde. i run a lot of kde apps in it without a problem
[21:02] <orgthingy> sfce sucks
[21:02] <orgthingy> fluxbox is old
[21:02] <orgthingy> kde is "good"
[21:02] <prince_jammys> Lunis: firefox takes about a half hour to start
[21:02] <FloodBot1> orgthingy: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[21:02] <orgthingy> gnome is perfect
[21:02] <Shane-S> wols: I have internet for random periods of time, and then just lose it on my Ubuntu system. Then I can sit here and ping it, but the Ubuntu box can't do anythign network related
[21:02] <Rohs> any other msn type programs not Emesene or amsn?
[21:02] <ds[de]> xfce looks nice imho
[21:02] <orgthingy> FloodBot1 : hello stupid bot, just to let u know, im allowed to flood
[21:02] <Shane-S> wols:however the link still shows active and fine
[21:02] <orgthingy> Rohs : pidgin
[21:03] <orgthingy> Rohs : and many many out there ::P
[21:03] <Artificial_Consi> hi
[21:03] <Blacklight> xfce is nice for people who want gnome/kde bbut don't have the rescources...
[21:03] <Rohs> it needs webcam support really
[21:03] <php6th> i love ubuntu, dammit im a ex debian user... but ubuntu rocks!!!! MR. SHUTERLAND... TAKE MY BODY...!!!
[21:03] <orgthingy> php6th : debian is ubuntu
[21:03] <prince_jammys> php6th: you're a debian user by proxy ;)
[21:04] <kane77> php6th, and who is shuterland?
[21:04] <orgthingy> the only thing they did was: fix bugs (and they fix bugs for debian, as well) and making live cd
[21:04] <Blacklight> php if your willing to give it up for an OS... I doubt anyone would want it :P
[21:04] <php6th> orgthingy: i know... but the usability in debian Sucks!!
[21:04] <orgthingy> stability **
[21:04] <phOENix> ns register ?
[21:04] <kane77> orgthingy, actually ubuntu is debian :)
[21:04] <php6th> Ubuntu is missing a NET install
[21:04] <Jordan_U> !install | php6th
[21:05] <orgthingy> kane77 : ubuntu is debian.. debian is ubuntu
[21:05] <Shane-S> wols: it has 2 nic's and I am even on the other nic. The IP is static as well on the Ubunut box
[21:05] <Gnea> j0nr: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/fedora-35/why-does-cifs-mount-fail-469006/
[21:05] <Gnea> vnix: i can try. is the wireless card builtin?
[21:05] <php6th> Ubuntu = debian Fixed, without Bugs and Usable
[21:05] <prince_jammys> right, the same way that fish are animals, and animals are fish
[21:05] <kane77> orgthingy, its rather "is kind of" and in this sense ubuntu is kind of debian..
[21:05] <payman> hi im a new user for ubuntu and i want too know is it beter than fedora?
[21:05] <Dawid> hi all does any one need help??
[21:06] <php6th> payman:  Fedora sucks
[21:06] <Dawid> ubuntu is beter for home use fedora is better for programing
[21:06] <php6th> payman:  Fedora = crap redhat engine... better use something less gay like CENTOS
[21:06] <payman> thx
[21:06] <JGJones> php6th - actually have a look at this - it explains how to setup a "plug'n'install" network socket - plug in a computer, set it to network boot and it'll automagically install ubuntu - in issue 14 of Full Circle "web magazine" - will fetch the URL for you
[21:07] <kane77> Dawid, why would fedora be better for programming
[21:07] <unsolo_> provided in install ubuntu with kde is it also a full blown kdevelop
[21:07] <Dawid> ye it has more programs for programing
[21:07] <unsolo_> with subversion + gdb + ...
[21:07] <unsolo_> in kdevelop
[21:07] <unop> !language | php6th
[21:07] <payman> do we need antivirus in ubuntu?
[21:07] <Dawid> no
[21:07] <phOENix> -
[21:07] <Flannel> unsolo_: You can install those, they aren't installed by default
[21:07] <jussi01> !virus
[21:08] <dacorr> anyone use Pidgin for IRC?
[21:08] <JGJones> php6th - http://fullcirclemagazine.org/2008/06/26/issue-14-is-out/ - download and you can do a network installation of Ubuntu by following the guide in the magazine
[21:08] <unsolo_> Flannel: ok.. and thats all in the package tree right
[21:08] <Meeso> HOw do you reset your volume settings?
[21:08] <dusty_> Hey guys does anyone know any way to get bind statistics ? is there anything built into bind or know of a 3rd party app ?
[21:08] <Dawid> kane77 : Fedora has more programs for programing
[21:09] <unsolo_> what about multislot gcc's and such
[21:09] <Dawid> for example kdevelop
[21:09] <Meeso> I did something wrong
[21:09] <wols> Shane-S: ping an IP
[21:09] <unsolo_> well personally i only use gentoo
[21:09] <joaopinto> Dawid, kdevelop is also available on ubuntu
[21:09] <wols> Shane-S: if that doesn't work, pastebin the output or ifconfig and route
[21:09] <kane77> Dawid, I mean, yes, I had to recompile some of the provided shared libraries on my own in order to be able to use them, but apart from that I don't see any thing why woulnd't ubuntu be good for programming as well..
[21:09] <unsolo_> but this intended for new users
[21:09] <db92> ubuntu refuses to give me sound on youtube :||||
[21:09] <IndyGunFreak> Dawid: what makes you think kdevelop isn't available for ubuntu?
[21:09] <unop> !info kdevelop | Dawid
[21:09] <kane77> Dawid, you can install kdevelop as well..
[21:09] <Flannel> unsolo_: yes, theyre in the repos.  "kdevelop" is in universe
[21:10] <prince_jammys> !info kdevelop | Dawid
[21:10] <j0nr> Gnea: I can't make much sense of that sorry.
[21:10] <unsolo_> Flannel: ok..
[21:10] <Dawid> I didn't know it i thought you can oly install it on kde
[21:10] <Shane-S> wols: sure, neither did, I just rebooted though as I wanted to try and apt-get tracert send a link as soon as it breaks
[21:10] <unsolo_> Dawid: no kdevelop runs fine under xfce and gnome as well
[21:10] <unsolo_> even in fluxbox
[21:10] <Flannel> dawid_: and "kde" is in Ubuntu as well, its just a different flavor.
[21:10] <Gnea> j0nr: what about it doesn't make sense?
[21:10] <wols> Shane-S: ping your router
[21:11] <IndyGunFreak> dawid_: what made you think that?
[21:11] <php6th> programming?? what you cant install on ubuntu??
[21:11] <payman> i have  dell lab top 1501 my graphic card in  not set,i go too the many site and install many  program but its not solve
[21:11] <Shane-S> wols: when I do that will it matter, since I am actually connected to the same router to talk to you?
[21:11] <unsolo_> whats the current version of kde on ubuntu
[21:11] <IndyGunFreak> php6th: you can probably install anything, its just what level of effort you want to put into it.. many things are in the repositories, fi its not, you'll need to get the source code and compile form source
[21:11] <unsolo_> as im sure that affects the QT and kdevelop versions
[21:11] <j0nr> Gnea: i don't understand what i am looking for. Bit of a novice sorry.
[21:12] <dawid_> ok stop the talking about programing start another :P
[21:12] <vnix> Gnea, yes it's build in. I am using notebook now and the device is working. (I am using it now to connect to internet)
[21:12] <Meeso> hey
[21:12] <IndyGunFreak> dawid_: sorr, extreme ignorance will always draw peoples ire
[21:12] <Meeso> theres no sound on flash applications
[21:12] <dawid_> Indy :p
[21:12] <IndyGunFreak> dawid_: you said it, not me.
[21:12] <felixhcat> sup?
[21:13]  * unsolo_ didnt get that. 
[21:13] <payman> yes i can connect too internet but many device are not correct
[21:13] <Gnea> j0nr: well, samba uses CIFS filesystem. the error in syslog is -5. that page will tell you how to figure out what it means, exactly.
[21:13] <IndyGunFreak> Meeso: are you getting sound on other apps?
[21:13] <evariste> I am trying to extract a .daa file, but using the -od option but I get an error: Unrecognized parameter: /home/me/Desktop/MT
[21:13] <evariste> which is a directory that does exist
[21:13] <Gnea> vnix: so what are you trying to do with it if it's working fine?
[21:13] <evariste> Any ideas how I can resolve this?
[21:13] <Meeso> yeah
[21:13] <Meeso> like Musuc
[21:13] <Meeso> *Music
[21:13] <IndyGunFreak> Meeso: try switchign everything to Alsa, instead of pulse audio, see if that helps
[21:14] <IndyGunFreak> i've had that prob w/ pulse when somethin else was playing sounds, flash would not work(for instance, pidgin,l audacious, etc..)
[21:14] <vnix> I click the configuration button and "The Interface Does Not Exist" pop up
[21:14] <Meeso> ok
[21:14] <payman> ok bye
[21:14] <IndyGunFreak> !buy | payman
[21:14] <j0nr> Gnea: am I looking at the same thing... 5 posts in linuxquestions.org?
[21:15] <IndyGunFreak> !bye | payman
[21:15] <Gnea> j0nr: yes, read from the top-down
[21:15] <IndyGunFreak> lol, that was horrible.
[21:15] <unop> unsolo_, kde 4.1.0
[21:15] <unsolo_> hmm ok
[21:15] <Meeso> how do I do that?
[21:15] <payman> i dont know revoir???
[21:15] <unsolo_> so its probable that qt designer is 4.0 based
[21:15] <felixhcat> secret
[21:15] <kane77> I have a problem on my laptop with kde apps, for some unknown reason they started to display the menu bar separately, this happens for all (I'm not quite sure, but lets assume) kde apps.. anyone have any ide how to change this?
[21:15] <unsolo_> or higher
[21:16] <IndyGunFreak> Meeso: system/pref/sounds
[21:16] <unsolo_> echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq
[21:16] <IndyGunFreak> Meeso: on the first tab there, is everythign set to pulse?...
[21:16] <naynay> Hey could someone ssh to dominance.isa-geek.net on port 110 and tell me if they get a login?
[21:16] <unsolo_> echo b > /proc/sysrq-trigger
[21:16] <unsolo_> later guys thanks for the info
[21:17] <j0nr> Gnea: well all I can figure is that the guy has the same error code as me.
[21:17] <Meeso> no
[21:17] <payman> this chat room is very intresting  i came back soon
[21:17] <j0nr> Gnea: but it doesn't say the outcome
[21:17] <payman> bye now;)
[21:17] <Shane-S> wols: it is still online since the reboot, but here is the current stuff http://paste.ubuntu.com/36618/
[21:17] <unsolo_> is it hard to set up a local ubuntu package repository ?
[21:17] <Rohs> omg songbird is sooo good
[21:17] <Rohs> free music
[21:17] <IndyGunFreak> Rohs: i never cared for it much, but glad you like it
[21:17] <Kernel> with swappiness does a lower number mean that ram is used more? or does a higher number use more ram?...i want to use as least i can.
[21:17] <Meeso> ist set to ALSA
[21:17] <CShadowRun> is there any way to have a multi-row task list?
[21:18] <Flannel> unsolo_: Nope
[21:18] <Gnea> j0nr: You might try "echo 1 >/proc/fs/cifs/cifsFYI" to print out more debug information to the system error log. Reference: /usr/src/linux/fs/cifs/README
[21:18] <wols> Shane-S: looks fine. maybe fscked up dhcps server?
[21:18] <IndyGunFreak> Meeso: hmm weird
[21:18] <wols> Shane-S: check syslog and dmesg when it craps out again
[21:18] <Gnea> wols: ...
[21:18] <Rohs> IndyGunFreak: you dont like it, how?
[21:18] <j0nr> Gnea: ah, i did try that and nothing happended... let me look again
[21:18] <Rohs> im guessing you dont like music
[21:18] <unsolo_> another ubuntu question is alsa default set up to software mix ?
[21:18] <Gnea> j0nr: k
[21:18] <IndyGunFreak> Rohs: just didn't care for it... i like banshee, rythmbox, even amarok
[21:19] <Gnea> unsolo_: no, you need to set it specifically
[21:19] <Rohs> but you search for music it downloads it
[21:19] <Rohs> even if you don't have it
[21:19] <IndyGunFreak> Rohs: i do that w/ frostwire..lol
[21:19] <inspyre> anyone have the console set fullscreen on a del lat c800?
[21:19] <Rohs> but its all in one program
[21:19] <unsolo_> Gnea: ok just checking..
[21:20] <j0nr> Gnea: ok I cant find the README document
[21:21] <Blacklight> lol time to get some real updates... svn is already version 1.5, ubuntu only has 1.4.6
[21:22] <Wh00mp> ok i have a drive that was totally wiped, and need to install ubuntu on it, i hooked up the drive via usb and my computer found it as usb connected drive , i formatted partitioned it in gparted as fat32, now what? can i boot it from my cdrom on computer and install the OS to a second drive since my other PC does not have a cdrom drive?
[21:23] <Gnea> j0nr: is the remote sysstem windows or linux?
[21:23] <j0nr> linux - ubuntu
[21:23] <Blacklight> Wh00mp, don't use fat32, use ext3
[21:23] <j0nr> Gnea: linux - ubuntu
[21:23] <wols> Gnea: ok to /msg you?
[21:23] <Gnea> j0nr: if you run tail -f /var/log/syslog on the remote machine, what does it say when you try to mount?
[21:24] <Gnea> wols: sure
[21:24] <Blacklight> Wh00mp, linux does not use fat32 or any other windows filesystem by default.
[21:24] <Rohs> is songbird based on firefox at all?
[21:24] <Blacklight> Rohs, no its a music player made by mozilla.
[21:24] <wols> Rohs: it uses xulrunner
[21:24] <wols> so sorta
[21:24] <Rohs> oh its made by mozilla
[21:25] <Rohs> how do they get away with the free music downloading?
[21:25] <vbabiy> Rohs: no its not made by them
[21:25] <Blacklight> lol
[21:25] <Rohs> just uses there framework
[21:25] <Rohs> sort of thing
[21:25] <vbabiy> Rohs: yeah
[21:25] <hwilde> anybody got wireless roaming problems with lwapp ?
[21:26] <Rohs> i might use that framework for a project im doing
[21:26] <sanassar> Hello
[21:26] <j0nr> Gnea: wat should have happened running tail? i ran it, then tried to mount again, same error
[21:26] <Rohs> it seems great
[21:26] <sanassar> Anyone want to know how to upgrade Ubuntu 8.04 to Ubuntu 8.10
[21:26] <IndyGunFreak> Rohs: probably the same way limewire/frostwire do.
[21:26] <Gnea> j0nr: does anything show up on the syslog there?
[21:26] <IndyGunFreak> sanassar: why would you go from something that is stable, to omething that is still alpha?
[21:26] <Rohs> limewire works on ubuntu?
[21:26] <sanassar> I Did
[21:26] <reikalusikka> Rohs: there's another version of it
[21:26] <sanassar> People would to help the Ubuntu community...
[21:26] <j0nr> Gnea: is the syslog what fills the screen when running tail/
[21:27] <Wh00mp> i have a old pc i want to run ubuntu server on but there is no cd-rom drive on the old pc, so it is safe to install it to a usb drive then manually put the harddrive into the old pc and it will boot?
[21:27] <IndyGunFreak> Rohs: of course.. there's a linux version of it... Limewire and Frostwire work fine
[21:27] <Rohs> ok
[21:27] <IndyGunFreak> reikalusikka: there's a version of Limewire for Linux also.
[21:27] <Gnea> j0nr: yes, that's what the -f does
[21:27] <Rohs> also anyone got dreamweaver cs3 to work
[21:27] <sanassar> Ubuntu 8.10 has the theme called NewHuman
[21:27] <Rohs> it keeps failing for me
[21:27] <sanassar> A new dark theme
[21:28] <gvk> uuu
[21:28] <palomer> there's a new ubuntu?
[21:28] <Shane-S> wols: in syslog all I just found was gconfd entries near the time it just crapped out, between 4:22 and 4:23, there is no tiem stamp in dmesg
[21:28] <Wh00mp> i cant get the new ubuntu updates i keep getting an error
[21:28] <arkhat> hello, I am using exaile music player, and when I click on the lyrics tab it crashes; any help?
[21:28] <wols> Shane-S: gnome network manager running?

[21:29] <Wh00mp>   Could not connect to localhost:4001 (127.0.0.1). - connect (111 Connection refused)
[21:29] <Wh00mp> thats the error i get
[21:29] <wols> Wh00mp: your proxy went belly up
[21:30] <wols> Wh00mp: you use JAP or such?
[21:30] <Shane-S> wols: yes, I am using gnome and I use the network icon to configure everything
[21:30] <Wh00mp> wols; humm.. i dont think so, i was trying to install tor i think and it may have caused error
[21:30] <wols> Wh00mp: yes it did
[21:30] <j0nr> Gnea: Seems to be a username issue?
[21:31] <wols> Shane-S: man interfaces and stop using that gnome evilness
[21:31] <taak> is there such a thing as global copy/paste in vim? i.e., copy in one instance of vim can copy into another vim running
[21:31] <Gnea> j0nr: looks like it, how did you configure samba before?
[21:31] <Wh00mp> wols; sudo apt-get remove tor?
[21:31] <wols> taak: X has copy pastge, screen does, gpm does
[21:31] <Shane-S> wols: how can I turn it off, will it stop the issues? Could it be Samba beforehand?
[21:32] <wols> Shane-S: just done run it. maybe uninstall it. but configure your ethX via /etc/network/interfaces first
[21:32] <taak> wols: i'm using screen, but it would be so much more convenient if i could do it natively in vim
[21:32] <psilocyde> hey guys i installed alien arena and it hosed my sound. I uninstalled the offending app but still the sound is all fuzzy and distorted. it sounds like white noise. settings all appear to be the same system prefs.
[21:32] <j0nr> Gnea: Editting the smb.conf to add a directory to share
[21:33] <j0nr> Gnea: this is the weird thing... it worked fine for ages, then just one day ...this
[21:33] <Kovert> !alien arena
[21:33] <Gnea> j0nr: by hand or with something else?
[21:33] <Blacklight> psilocyde, I love that game, too bad you had problems with it :(
[21:33] <j0nr> Gnea: by hand...admittedly copying someone elses guide example
[21:33] <psilocyde> right?
[21:33] <pianoboy3333> anyone here know about empathy? I became interested in it recently but is it able to use the AIM protocol? how can I set it up?
[21:33] <j0nr> Gnea: with vi if it matters
[21:34] <onthefence928> can ubuntu make it's own install disk?
[21:34] <psilocyde> so is there a way to rebuild the sound server or something?
[21:34] <Blacklight> course now that you mention it, I just updated it, Im not sure I want to run it now :(
[21:34] <Kovert> alien arena isnt that windoze
[21:34] <psilocyde> no
[21:34] <kane77> Kovert, no
[21:34] <IndyGunFreak> Kovert: no, theres a linux version.. a very good linux version actually
[21:34] <nixnoob> Does the Hardy live CD have the capability to read ntfs out of the box?
[21:34] <Gnea> j0nr: you might want to try swat - it's a web frontend, but it's so much nicer to set what you're trying to set
[21:35] <IndyGunFreak> nixnoob: yes
[21:35] <Gnea> !swat | j0nr
[21:35] <Kovert> is it the repo's
[21:35] <IndyGunFreak> Kovert: yes
[21:35] <maw_> someone please refesh my memory... where can new environment variables be permanently added? For all users and scripts to make use of?
[21:35] <Gnea> uh, thought that was different..heh
[21:35] <IndyGunFreak> Kovert: sudo apt-get install alien-arena
[21:35] <nixnoob> IndyGunFreak: ntfs-3g is preinstalled right I dont need to get anything from the repos?
[21:35] <IndyGunFreak> nixnoob: thats correct.
[21:35] <nixnoob> IndyGunFreak: thank you.
[21:35] <IndyGunFreak> all you have to do is right click your ntfs partition and select mount
[21:35] <Gnea> j0nr: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Swat
[21:36] <nixnoob> IndyGunFreak: it also has support for USB sticks?
[21:36] <IndyGunFreak> nixnoob: should.
[21:36] <Flare183> I'm back
[21:36] <nixnoob> IndyGunFreak: thank you you are most helpful.

[21:41] <wols> !ot | Martiini
[21:42] <Flare183> umm
[21:42] <Floi> hi guys. I just upgraded from gutsy to hardy and now I can't use the 1440x900 resolution anymore, which worked fine with gutsy. I'm using a DELL XPS M1530 laptop
[21:42] <Kovert> Flseems to be security
[21:42] <Gnea> !intrepid | Martiini
[21:42] <Martiini> shut it
[21:42] <Gnea> Floi: what video card does it use?
[21:43] <Shane-S> wols: thanks for now, I have to call it a day closing the building, I will see if it stays up overnight (its a webserver)

[21:43] <Flare183> !ot | amirk
[21:43] <amrik> oops sorry
[21:44] <amrik> did not mean to paste here
[21:44] <amrik> Hi I would like evolution to display in 24 hour format; how can I do this?
[21:44] <Floi> sec
[21:44] <Flare183> amrik: I understand
[21:44] <Kovert> Flare183: exactly what I tried
[21:44] <Flare183> oh
[21:45] <Flare183> Hold on Kovert
[21:45] <sanassar> Hi
[21:45] <|Aragorn|> oyo
[21:45] <Flare183> Kovert: ok did you add the users and groups?
[21:46] <sanassar> I just upgrade to Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid.
[21:46] <sanassar> Pretty awesome
[21:46] <Flare183> !interpid
[21:46] <Flare183> ...
[21:46] <Lunis> alright, now, that other question :P
[21:46]  * Flare183 can't spell
[21:46] <sanassar> I mean intrepid
[21:46] <Gnea> !intREpid
[21:46] <Flare183> there we go
[21:46] <Kovert> Flare183: yes
[21:46] <Flare183> ok..
[21:46] <sanassar> It is the next Ubuntu release
[21:46] <onthefence928> can ubuntu generate it's own install disk?
[21:46] <Floi> where can I see which graphic card I'm using? (hardy)
[21:47] <Gnea> Floi: open terminal and type:  lspci | grep VGA
[21:47] <Lunis> Could anyone recommend a text editor with highlighting and a built in console? I want to learn C, and I have the books and things to do it, but I want to be able to type in some code, hit a button, and have it spit out the results of compiling, linking, and running in an attached console
[21:47] <|Aragorn|> Feisty Fawn expires...day of the new Ubuntu release, correct?
[21:47] <Floi> Geforce 8600 GT
[21:47] <Flare183> Kovert: Look at this: http://purify.sourceforge.net/index.php?page=documentation&doc=faq
[21:47] <Flare183> Kovert: That might help, see #5
[21:47] <onthefence928> Lunis: sounds like you want an IDE not a text editor
[21:48] <j0nr> Gnea: hmm now swat doesn't work properly... none of the links I click on have a page...just a file not found error....sigh
[21:48] <php6th> how to connect using ssh ?
[21:48] <Flare183> !ssh | php6th
[21:48] <amrik> Lunis: emacs can do it. M-x compile
[21:48] <|Aragorn|> Will have to update to Gutsy soon.......
[21:48]  * Flare183 is using Hardy
[21:49] <|Aragorn|> Hardy working well?
[21:49] <Lunis> onthefence928, sort of. I don't want debugging or advanced features right now. there was something called SCiTE (I think) for windows that would execute certain types of scripts and output the result into a window on the side
[21:49] <Kovert> Flare183: when they talk abotu my startup script init.d?
[21:49] <Flare183> |Aragorn|: yeah loving it
[21:49] <Lunis> amblin, har har.
[21:49] <j0nr> Gnea: sigh...out of time (and patience) now. Thanks for your help though! I will come back to it another day
[21:49] <Flare183> Kovert: yeah
[21:49] <Flare183> I think
[21:49] <|Aragorn|> Cool. Might skip Gutsy if I can...huhu
[21:49] <Floi> gnea: I'm using a geforce 8600 gt
[21:49] <Gnea> j0nr: ok, good luck :)
[21:49] <Flare183> |Aragorn|: Actually you have to upgrad in order
[21:49] <Flare183> upgrade*
[21:50] <Lunis> wait, come to think of it, isn't scite originally linux?
[21:50] <Lunis> brbgoogle
[21:50] <|Aragorn|> oh darn
[21:50] <Flare183> ???
[21:50] <marcules> Good Evening ^^
[21:50] <Flare183> |Aragorn|: yeah
[21:50] <|Aragorn|> Takes hours, doesn't it?
[21:50] <|Aragorn|> :|
[21:50] <Gnea> Floi: system->hardware drivers  is nvidia listed there?
[21:50] <Flare183> |Aragorn|: yeah depending on the speed of your internet
[21:50] <|Aragorn|> Will get to that at some point.........
[21:51] <Floi> hm it was listed, not checked but said "in use"
[21:51] <Floi> I checked the box now, shall I do the required restart?
[21:52] <Floi> Gnea (sorry if you weren't waiting for the highlight)
[21:52] <wols> Floi: only X restart
[21:52] <Floi> ok
[21:52] <Floi> brb
[21:53] <vbman11> Hi all!
[21:53] <|Aragorn|> supeeps
[21:53] <Gnea> Floi: sorry, yes. did it work?
[21:53] <Floi> worked
[21:53] <Floi> thanks
[21:53] <Gnea> :D
[21:53] <vbman11> I just got compiz git and freewins doesn't work
[21:53] <Floi> kinda confusing with the checkbox and the green light saying "in use" ^^
[21:55] <vbman11> when I "ctrl+shift+click" on a window it doesn't move and the grabbing hand curser won't go away AND I can't click on anything
[21:55] <vbman11> any Ideas?
[21:56] <j0nr> Gnea: Aha! Got it! Although seemingly too simple. Got swat working, then all i did was add some usernames to the valid users entry and hey presto! Thanks ever so much for your help!
[21:56] <Gnea> j0nr: you're welcome :)
[21:57] <mydoghasworms> Which is the correct version of Ubuntu to install for Intel Quad Core machines?
[21:58] <ds[de]> vbman11: can you active 3d cube?
[21:58] <Gnea> mydoghasworms: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=663849
[21:58] <ds[de]> vbman11: *did* you active 3d cube?
[21:58] <vbman11> ds[de]: yes
[21:59] <mydoghasworms> Gnea: Thanks, will take a look.
[21:59] <ds[de]> vbman11: can you switch between your desktops with ctrl + alt + cursor_right || cursor_left ?
[21:59] <vbman11> ds[de]: yea
[21:59] <vbman11> ds[de]: everything works minus freewins
[22:00] <slicky> guyilkj
[22:00] <Lunis> well scite would have worked but i think it requires makefiles, which are silly for someone just trying to test 4 or 5 lines of C >.>
[22:01] <mydoghasworms> Gnea: Thanks, that's just what I wanted to know!
[22:01] <Gnea> mydoghasworms: cheers
[22:01] <onthefence928> Lunis: i know my professor uses a web-based tool that works like you'd like
[22:02] <onthefence928> but i'm not entirely sure what it's called right now (i'm having a brain-fart
[22:02] <ds[de]> vbman11: did you follow a specific guide?
[22:02] <Lunis> that's alright. I think i'll just find a good ide and get it over with
[22:03] <vbman11> ds[de]: nope, well I used the "compiz-git" tool from ubuntu geek
[22:03] <Kovert> can some one pastebin me a working /init.d/pure-ftpd
[22:04] <Gnea> Lunis: ddd
[22:04] <molgrum> i'm having problems installing 32-bit OpenAL in 64-bit Ubuntu, i don't know where to get it. i tried with getlibs but it can't find it..
[22:05] <ds[de]> vbman11, hmm I don't know about compiz-git :(
[22:05] <db92> how to fix flash sound?
[22:05] <vbman11> does any one else here have any Ideas on how to fix my problem
[22:06] <kaiwen> Lunis you may also want to try searching "c interpreter", if I'm thinkig that's what you want,.
[22:09] <Lunis> in the olden days of windows 98, you would write a .c file, and run it through a program that compiled an exe from it. it was simple and useful for learning, but not for actual C building. that's the kind of thing I want
[22:09] <kaiwen> Lunis c interpreter then.
[22:09] <kaiwen> Lunis, are you looking for something that doesn't compile?
[22:09] <frojnd> Something seriously wrong. I've changed first permissions of home directory into 777 and than to 644 and also chown me:me -R /home/me and now I can't access to any program because it says failed to change to directory '/home/'tamino' (permission denied)
[22:09] <frojnd> can anyone help me out of this ?
[22:10] <kaiwen> frojnd are you on a gui?
[22:10] <jrib> frojnd: ls -ld /home $HOME
[22:10] <molgrum> does anyone have any idea how to install 32-bit OpenAL libraries onto a 64-bit Ubuntu installation? i need it for a proprietary game that is compiled in 32-bit..
[22:10] <jrib> Lunis: just use gcc
[22:10] <sean> list
[22:10] <gr1m> Hello, I have just installed the GeForce 5200FX (PCI [not PCIe or AGP]).  I see the ubuntu logo when it boots up, but then the screen goes blank.  Could anyone help me out?  I am lost :[  Thanks!
[22:10] <Lunis> kaiwen, in old Visual Stuios we would hit F5 to "build & run"
[22:10] <kaiwen> Lunis, that compiles, so you are looking for an IDE
[22:11] <Lunis> that's the functionality i want
[22:11] <kaiwen> Lunis, IDE then, there is kdevelop and eclipse.
[22:11] <Lunis> kaiwen, yeah, but i'm not finding a lot in the way of ide's right now
[22:11] <kaiwen> Lunis, use eclipse, then, it has that kind of function.
[22:11] <Lunis> kaiwen, i've been told eclipse is terrible with C, any truth to that?
[22:11] <Achoth> Hello. I'm building a small computer and I'm intrested in having Ubuntu MID edition. However I simply can't find the download button. Where can I download it?`
[22:11] <kaiwen> Lunis, I think it's fine, I'm using it for java and C
[22:12] <kaiwen> Lunis, like in all IDE's you need to direct where you compiler is, that's all.
[22:12] <kaiwen> Lunis, if you install kdevelop, that has a c/C++ ide
[22:12] <Lunis> eventually i'll just want to modify something like scribes or scite to have that functionality, so i can lose the weight of project management, debugging, etc
[22:12] <Gnea> Lunis: DDD is also a C ide, although i've found eclipse to be better
[22:13] <Lunis> eclipse it is then
[22:13] <db92> Lunis, dont buy that
[22:13] <db92> Lunis, check them both out
[22:13] <db92> and decide :p
[22:13] <db92> not everyone has the same style :p
[22:13] <Lunis> db92, if eclipse doesn't work out i'll try something else. I don't particularly want to use a KDE app unless GTK alternatives fail me
[22:14] <db92> alritey, if you insist :p
[22:14] <kaiwen> Lunis, it's open source ;) and i just checked, kdevelop also has that function you want.
[22:14] <kaiwen> Lunis, so go to synaptic and search kdevelop and eclipse and ddd, install them all! and see which one you like best.
[22:14] <Lunis> kaiwen, aye
[22:15] <Lunis> at first glance, eclipse looks weighty
[22:16] <debian_akroyd> hi all
[22:16] <ramontayag> hey everyone. tried to install some packages and i came across this problem: http://pastie.org/251412.  However, searching on Google I've read that it's been fixed https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/librmagick-ruby/+bug/220811.  Am I missing something here? :(
[22:16] <kaiwen> Lunis, lol, but it's powerful, it can be used for different languages,
[22:16] <stantonw> hi, can anyone help me with an installation problem? I keep getting errors like "Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0"
[22:16] <debian_akroyd> how to i tell gcc to compile for the MIPS architecure?
[22:16] <Lunis> kaiwen, aye, that's what i'm noticing. impressive for sure
[22:16] <nich^> SPE is a great ide for Python if you use that :)
[22:16] <Lunis> kaiwen, i'm installing both mind you
[22:16] <ds[de]> Rohs: which repository is songbird in?
[22:17] <kaiwen> Lunis, that's good ;)
[22:17] <gr1m> Does anyone have any suggestions?
[22:18] <debian_akroyd> well? does anybody know?
[22:18] <snarkster> suggestions for what?
[22:18] <cdavis> Can someone tell me what packet I need if I receive: Can't locate GD/Graph/colour.pm
[22:18] <jrib> gr1m: have you checked the wiki page on the nvidia driver?  I have that problem on my laptop with a geforce go and the troubleshooting suggestion there fixed it for me
[22:20] <sdubois92> ubuntu is on /dev/sda3, so should my (hd0) in grub be hd0,0 or hd0,3
[22:20] <debian_akroyd> does anybody know how to run gcc?
[22:20] <gr1m> jrib, the only issue is that I do not have desktop access (since I no longer have the original card)
[22:20] <gr1m> So I am using putty
[22:20] <gr1m> heh
[22:20] <debian_akroyd> im just wondering how to cross compile for the mips arch
[22:20] <jrib> debian_akroyd: 'gcc'.  Have a more specific question?
[22:20] <nich^> cdavis: http://search.cpan.org/src/BWARFIELD/
[22:20] <debian_akroyd> jrib, how do you cross compile for the mips architecture?
[22:20] <stantonw> is this the right IRC channel for support questions? I'm trying to install Ubuntu for the first time from the CD. After booting up, I get to the Ubuntu logo, as soon as I try to install, I get a lot of error messages like: "Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0"
[22:20] <kaiwen> !gcc | debian_akroyd
[22:21] <jrib> debian_akroyd: ask #gcc
[22:21] <cdavis> nich^, there isn't a deb I can install?
[22:21] <debian_akroyd> ok
[22:21] <ramontayag> help! :o tried to install librmagick-ruby1.8 and i came across a broken package problem: http://pastie.org/251412.  However, I've read that it's been fixed https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/librmagick-ruby/+bug/220811.  Am I missing something here? :(
[22:21] <kaiwen> stantonw, idk if this may help, but when you boot it with the loading bar, press f6
[22:21] <nich^> cdavis: I don't know I'm afraid
[22:22] <kaiwen> stantonw, wait, is this when it's loading the cd? or when loading ubuntu live?
[22:22] <stantonw> what do I do after that, kaiwen? the CD seems to work fine with my laptop btw, so I'm sure it's not a faulty CD burn
[22:22] <jrib> ramontayag: what version of ubuntu?
[22:22] <ramontayag> hardy
[22:22] <stantonw> kaiwen: both
[22:22] <kaiwen> stantonw wait and see
[22:22] <kaiwen> stantonw, tell me where exactly this happens please,
[22:23] <jrib> !who | ramontayag
[22:23] <bobertdos> ﻿stantonw: Yes you have the right channel. I have that problem too sometimes. I get those same types of I/O buffer errors when I try to read my LiveCD's in my old Sony DVD writer. You can try different discs or burning different discs to see if it helps. I find that eventually, Ubuntu does boot, it just takes a long time.
[22:23] <jrib> ramontayag: pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list

[22:24] <ekim|lenovo> I have my time zone set correctly ... but my clock is messed up
[22:24] <ekim|lenovo> it says it's 9:24 am
[22:24] <bobertdos> ﻿ekim|lenovo: Are you dual-booting with Windows?
[22:24] <stantonw> kaiwen, I get as far as the Ubuntu welcome screen, which lists all the options... but when I try to either run the Live CD or to do an actual installation, the screen goes blank while it's reading the CD and then the error messages come up
[22:24] <ekim|lenovo> bobertdos, no

[22:25] <kaiwen> stantonw so you don't get the orange loading bar?
[22:25] <jrib> ramontayag: you need to enable hardy-updates
[22:25] <ekim|lenovo> ekim|lenovo, also...I just got a lenovo ideapad ... and it's got this stupid "novo recovery" thing
[22:25] <ekim|lenovo> how do I remove that
[22:25] <kaiwen> stantonw, are you using the visual cd or text cd?
[22:25] <ekim|lenovo> I think it's one of those hidden restore parititions
[22:25] <stantonw> kaiwen: no, I don't get the orange loading bar once I've selected an option
[22:25] <ekim|lenovo> but shoudln't gparted be able to see it ?
[22:26] <ramontayag> jrib: ah.. i'm sorry, is there a source i should paste in my sources.list?
[22:26] <kaiwen> stantonw, it's the cd loading problem, is this visual or text?
[22:26] <jrib> ramontayag: just use system -> administration -> software sources
[22:26] <stantonw> kaiwen, it's text
[22:26] <ramontayag> jrib: i'm logged on a remote server via shell :) vps
[22:26] <macd> Any gnome/gtk app that utilizes the save as dialog box, takes about 4 or 5 minutes to show up, ideas why?
[22:26] <kaiwen> stantonw, hmmm ... have you tried visual?
[22:26] <jrib> ramontayag: I'll pastebin mine then, one sec :)
[22:26] <bobertdos> ﻿ekim|lenovo: Even if you're not dual-booting, I would disable UTC. That usually is the culprit for an out-of-sync clock.
[22:26] <ramontayag> jrib: thank you very much!
[22:27] <gr1m> jrib, is there a way to do it via terminal?
[22:27] <onthefence928> can ubuntu create ubuntu install discs without downloading them from the internet?
[22:27] <stantonw> kaiwen: umm sorry, I misunderstood, the error message screen was all text. I wa susing the visual loader, haven't tried text yet
[22:27] <kaiwen> ok, stantonw, I suggest two options 1. reburn the visual cd on low speed 2. download the alternate text iso and install from there
[22:28] <ekim|lenovo>   bobertdos and how would I do that ?
[22:28] <kaiwen> stantonw, it's the cd or cd-rom's problem, i find one of those two fixes it. ;)
[22:28] <stantonw> kaiwen: but I don't get those errors using teh same CD on my laptop
[22:28] <kaiwen> stantonw, well your laptop has a better drive then ;)
[22:28] <stantonw> I doubt it :-/
[22:28] <bobertdos> ﻿ekim|lenovo: The option is in /etc/default/rcS. You must edit that file to say UTC =no
[22:28] <ekim|lenovo> ok
[22:28] <ekim|lenovo> thanks
[22:28] <kaiwen> stantonw it depends on the type of cd-rom drive, which computer did you burn it from
[22:29] <Dazed> which is the best screen recorder for ubuntu?
[22:30] <Dazed> im trying to use this xvidcap screencapture
[22:30] <ekim|lenovo> Dazed, xvidcap
[22:30] <stantonw> it was a P4 box using a generic 52x CD writer, it was burned on the same machine (and same drive) that I'm trying to install Ubuntu on
[22:30] <Dazed> But it fails like 96% of the time
[22:30] <Dazed> i make a 1 minute recording and its only 2 frames
[22:30] <bobertdos> ﻿ekim|lenovo: Also, if you really want to, you can probably use gparted to delete that recovery partition, if it is in fact a partition.
[22:30] <jrib> gr1m: http://paste.ubuntu.com/36640/ I commented the stuff that isn't as safe as the others.  Stay away from -proposed especially
[22:30] <Dazed> what settings should I use?
[22:30] <ekim|lenovo> Dazed, that's because 52x is way too fast to burn cds reliably
[22:30] <ekim|lenovo> at least in my experience ...
[22:30] <Dazed> burn cds?
[22:30] <ekim|lenovo> 20x seems to be the sweet spot
[22:30] <kaiwen> stantonw, it may be the problem with the burn, your laptop drive may be better
[22:31] <Dazed> what settings should i use in xvidcap?
[22:31] <kaiwen> stantonw, and 52x is too fast for a burn, 8x should be safe to make sure the cd works, especially on a PC, laptop drives tend to be better
[22:31] <Dazed> like format, codec, fps?
[22:31] <Dazed> to make it work better
[22:31] <ekim|lenovo> Dazed, I dunno...I always use GTK-RecordMyDesktop
[22:31] <jrib> gr1m: use this one http://paste.ubuntu.com/36642/, I missed the first line before
[22:31] <ekim|lenovo> search getdeb for it
[22:31] <Dazed> cool i got that one too
[22:31] <stantonw> kaiwen, I read on the forum that the "fd0" refers to a floopy drive - this machine hasd no floppy, nor is there anythign in the BIOS or CMOS to say there is one there
[22:31] <kaiwen> stantonw,ohhh. makes sense
[22:31] <Brymcon> ati radeon 9000 any advice on how to get the s-video out working?
[22:32] <kaiwen> stantonw, then try to use the text installer,
[22:32] <Abed> hello guys earlier today i was using mysql command line in xp and it worked well but under ubuntu i type mysql> "create database echo_tech;" and get this ERROR 1044 (42000): Access denied for user ''@'localhost' to database 'echo_tech'
[22:32] <stantonw> kaiwen: I didn't burn it at 52x, that is just its maximum speed, I used 4x
[22:32] <mlLK> anyone using G5 mouse on gusty?
[22:32] <kaiwen> stantonw, then your cd is fine.
[22:32] <delfy> hi, somebody italian?
[22:32] <gr1m> jrib I am new to this... I know some stuff but now idea what to do with that :x
[22:32] <Gnea> !it | delfy
[22:32] <delfy> ok, thanks
[22:32] <kaiwen> stantonw it may be that the visual installer was trying to load it while it loads the gui, the text alternate installer may be the solution.
[22:33] <jrib> gr1m: familiar with sudo?
[22:33] <gr1m> jrib, yes
[22:33] <trashguy> anyone able to get on gmail?
[22:33] <Dazed> yeah recordmydesktop is 100% better
[22:33] <stantonw> kaiwen, will give it a try... by the way, is there an easy way to copy and paste those error messages? I've seen people paste their error messages onto teh forum but I don't know how to do it
[22:33] <bobertdos> Abed: You'll want to get into the admin utility and make a separate account with appropriate permissions.
[22:33] <mlLK> is there a generic way for configuring the back command w/ my mouse?
[22:34] <kaiwen> stantonw http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=461599
[22:34] <dacorr> and mencoder to convert the ogg files
[22:34] <kaiwen> stantonw there is but you need a gui to do that.
[22:34] <kaiwen> stantonw paste.ubuntu.com is where you go to paste stuff
[22:34] <kaiwen> !paste | stantonw
[22:35] <jrib> gr1m: on your remote box, if you do 'wget http://paste.ubuntu.com/36642/plain/', it will download the file.  Then you can use cp to replace your old sources.list
[22:35] <kaiwen> stantonw, are you sure it's not related to bios?
[22:35] <dru> hey, can anyone tell me how to install the atheros wireless driver? .. i found the tar.gz file but i have no clue how to install the driver itself
[22:35] <jrib> !wifi > dru (read the private message from ubottu)
[22:35] <gr1m> jrib > 17:35:17 (26.11 MB/s) - `index.html' saved [1110]
[22:35] <ramontayag> jrib, i think that was meant for me? :o hehe
[22:35] <Gnea> jrib: you don't have to include the (read the private message from ubottu)
[22:35] <stantonw> kaiwen: dunno, I'll have a good look through the bios next time I'm on the machine (am using my x64 machine at the moment)
[22:36] <kaiwen> stantonw i googled around and most of the problems related to yours is with the bios.
[22:36] <Abed> any mysql expert here?
[22:36] <kaiwen> stantonw maybe legacy is on or something, look around.
[22:36] <jrib> gr1m: so now you can do 'sudo cp index.html /etc/apt/sources.list'
[22:36] <dru> jrib, my wireless connection does not even show up ... so doesnt that mean i have to install the driver?
[22:36] <Gnea> !mysql | Abed
[22:36] <Brucee> how do i know how much memory is in used in ubuntu hardy?
[22:37] <jrib> dru: the page ubottu sent you takes you through the normal steps, just look for your card.  I don't know much about it
[22:37] <Lunis> huh what's this Anjuta?
[22:37] <bobertdos> ﻿Brucee:  System->Administration->System Monitor
[22:37] <jrib> ramontayag: ha, indeed all of that stuff to gr1m was for you
[22:37] <Brucee> ty
[22:37] <kaiwen> stantonw, i suggest also to do what i told you to do before
[22:37] <gr1m> jrib, Yes I did that :P  What should I apt-get?
[22:38] <kaiwen> stantonw, try pressing f6 while it loads, it turns apci off http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/KernelCommonProblems#Boot_pauses_probing_floppy_device
[22:38] <ramontayag> jrib: haha okay thanks :)
[22:38] <gr1m> jrib > Thank you :]
[22:38] <jrib> gr1m: sorry, I confused you with ramontayag.  What I said won't help you
[22:38] <vbman11> ok so I still can't get freewins to work in compiz, There are a bunch of people with my problem but none of them post howto fix it when they figure it out!
[22:38] <stantonw> kaiwen: ok thanks. has anyone had issues with using Nero to burn the image or is that generally ok?
[22:39] <gr1m> jrib > uh oh.
[22:39] <jrib> gr1m: this is what helped me with the blank screen issue: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/Nvidia#Screen%20Blanks/Monitor%20Turns%20Off
[22:39] <jrib> gr1m: did you end up doing that 'cp' command I gave you?
[22:39] <kaiwen> stantonw, ok well i hope the links help ;) gl. need to go know
[22:39] <kaiwen> buy guys
[22:39] <gr1m> jrib > Yes

[22:40] <hosk> i have startup scripts like xend and xendomains in my init.d folder after i uninstalled everything xen i can find, is there something i missed or should i remove those scripts
[22:41] <gr1m> jrib > yes
[22:41] <stantonw> bye 4 now folks
[22:41] <Lunis> it would turn out that after trying kdevelop and not finding where eclipse put itself, i've grown fond of Anjuta, which i didn't even know was installe
[22:41] <rzec> i am getting a : (initramfs) : prompt when trying to install ubuntu 8.04 64bit, anyone know what might cause this?  should i try to downlaod the 32 bit version?
[22:41] <Flacker> is hardy supposed to support the Dell Wireless 1390
[22:41] <jrib> gr1m: okay, then it won't hurt you.  But if you had added some third party repos directly to /etc/apt/sources.list, you'll have to add them again.  In any case, see if the nvidia link helps you
[22:42] <unop> hosk, you could find out which package those files belong to with.  dpkg -S /etc/init.d/xen_blah

[22:44] <Gnea> Flacker: most of the time, if a new method doesn't exist for the latest version of Ubuntu, an older one will most likely work
[22:44] <hosk> unop, it says it belongs to xen-utils-3.2 which i uninstalled, is there something i can do?

[22:53] <ekim|lenovo> Gnea, why is that ? IR is IR right ?
[22:53] <ekim|lenovo> yeah..
[22:53] <ekim|lenovo> I realize
[22:53] <ekim|lenovo> that's totally innacurate

[22:53] <cup_holder> Hello
[22:53] <jrib> gr1m: okay, I *think* you need to update the BusID to 01:08:0, and use the driver 'nv' for now.  We'll change to 'nvidia' later.  If this does not work, you can still get here right since atm the screen is blank anyway?
[22:53] <fergon> hello

[22:54] <ekim|lenovo> Gnea, I have an old palm..

[22:55] <Loco_Cocoa> how do I create a boot disk with my current grub settings?
[22:55] <rconan> fergon, do you mean using sudo to run something?
[22:55] <fergon> rconan, yes, but not in interactive mode.
[22:56] <deepfriedsquirre> My computer is behaving very oddly indeed. I do a new hard drive install of Xubuntu and it ends up having all the GNOME stuff of before...
[22:56] <cup_holder> hmm
[22:56] <gr1m> jrib > I am on another machine .. the poor 'gutted' machine is next to me.  Let me go ahead and try that.
[22:56] <rconan> fergon, you'd have to run as a user who had permission to use sudo with no password
[22:56] <deepfriedsquirre> And yet the ubuntu-desktop package is unmarked
[22:56] <fergon> how can i do that?
[22:56] <Loco_Cocoa> Lojack made my computer unbootable, and I'm willing to have to use a CD to boot the Linux already on my HD (since I don't use it often). How do I make a disk that just loads grub (or gfxboot) and boots for me?
[22:57] <db92> deepfriedsquirre, ubuntu-desktop is dummy after everything is installed :P ive uninstalled it plenty of times and reinstalled it with nothing changing :pPP
[22:57] <rconan> in your /etc/sudoers file there is a line commented out which means anyone in the sudo group can run sudo without password
[22:57] <fergon> rconan, is there anyway to supply password as part of the argument to the program or something similar?
[22:57] <jrib> fergon: you can specify specific commands to not require a password.  Read 'man sudoers' and search for NOPASSWD.  But you really should ask for advice about what you are doing
[22:57] <rconan> fergon, you need to uncomment that and move it to the end of the file
[22:57] <gr1m> jrib > Err.. what should I edit here? http://paste.ubuntu.com/36657/
[22:57] <fergon> jrib, thanks
[22:57] <deepfriedsquirre> db92: I know it's a metapackage, but I thought it might be an indicator that it was old stuff from my hdd
[22:57] <fergon> rconan, uncomment what exectly?

[22:58] <deepfriedsquirre> The weird thing is that I actually deleted the old partition full of ubuntu with gparted
[22:58] <deepfriedsquirre> Why is it doing this?
[22:58] <jrib> gr1m: update the BusID to '01:08:0' and use the driver 'nv' instead of 'intel'.
[22:58] <cup_holder> help?
[22:58] <jrib> gr1m: keep the PCI stuff in the busID, just change the numbers
[22:58] <|Aragorn|> should be with regular updates
[22:59] <|Aragorn|> at the top of that screen
[22:59] <deepfriedsquirre> I think I might write a completely new partition table; how can I do that?
[22:59] <|Aragorn|> wherever you find it...
[22:59] <jrib> cup_holder: did you read the message ubottu sent you?
[22:59] <gr1m> jrib > For Device?
[22:59] <rconan> fergon, having a "%sudo ALL=NOPASSWD: ALL" after the "%admin ALL=(ALL) ALL" line will allow people in the sudoers group to use sudo without password
[22:59] <jrib> gr1m: right

[23:02] <amrik> Hi I would like evolution to display 24 hour time. How can I change my LOCALE settings to effect this?
[23:02] <alraune> cup_holder:what are u using now ?
[23:02] <alraune> ﻿deepfriedsquirre: simply format it then
[23:03] <unop> cup_holder, sudo aptitude install update-manager-core && sudo do-release-upgrade
[23:03] <hwilde> jrib, sure it will work ? whynot
[23:03] <cup_holder> hang on
[23:03] <gr1m> jrib > Crap.  I am using Gutsy.
[23:03] <deepfriedsquirre> alraune: But I did that. It's as if there's some sort of ghost of an old operating system in my hard drive, eternally haunting it.
[23:03] <cup_holder> I'm trying the apt-get dist-upgrade thing
[23:03] <jrib> gr1m: note that you are using the free 'nv' driver not the 'nvidia' one too
[23:03] <jrib> cup_holder: that won't work...
[23:03] <unop> hwilde, it only works if the sources.list is setup for the upgrade .. and dist-upgrade's no longer recommended
[23:04] <jrib> hwilde: because you would need to edit your sources.list first.  But this method is not supported
[23:04] <rconan> cup_holder, the commands unop gave you will definitely work
[23:04] <|Aragorn|> did amarok 2.0 release yet
[23:04] <deepfriedsquirre> alraune: How can I get my disk back to the state when I bought it? Just delete the partitions, or must I do more than that?
[23:04] <hwilde> jrib, unop, wow I am out of date!
[23:04] <|Aragorn|> i dont know and am too lazy to look it up
[23:04] <rconan> cup_holder, they will get you to 7.10, then you can do it again for 8.04
[23:04] <db92> sound refuses to work in flash, what gives? :||| specifically in firefox, generally saved flv files on my hdd are working
[23:04] <jrib> gr1m: know how to upgrade?
[23:05] <alraune> ﻿deepfriedsquirre: wipedisk and similar, google is your friend
[23:05] <LiTHiUM0XiD3> so can anybody assist me with this?
[23:05] <rzec> i am getting a : (initramfs) : prompt when trying to install ubuntu 8.04 64bit, anyone know what might cause this?  should i try to downlaod the 32 bit version?

[23:06] <Jordan_U> gausie: What gfx card?
[23:06] <deepfriedsquirre> I'm just scared of making my hdd unusable since my friend showed me a deliberate disk-destroyer for the sake of burning all of your consupiracies and stuff
[23:06] <rconan> gausie, what did you try?
[23:06] <gr1m> jrib > I have the latest release
[23:07] <cup_holder> :)
[23:07] <alraune> cup_holder:though I don't want to say upgrading doesn't work, I would prefer a fresh install, as several "sensations" occured here after upgrading
[23:07] <jrib> gr1m: but you said you were using Gutsy before?
[23:07] <gr1m> jrib > I have the latest release of Gutsy**
[23:07] <cup_holder> next comes hardy
[23:07] <Leo> could i ask a question ?
[23:07] <gr1m> Yep, I realized I am a noob. heh
[23:07] <jrib> Leo: that's the only one we don't like!
[23:07] <gausie> rconan, i had some help from this channel about a month ago, and ive googled myself silly

[23:08] <cup_holder> :-!:)l
[23:08] <jrib> Leo: I meant, just go ahead and ask the question
[23:08] <ds[de]> Leo: you already asked the wrong question, from now it gets easier :) just ask

[23:13] <Jordan_U> Leo: What do you mean "install another wifi manager"?
[23:13] <gausie> rconan, alraune, i should probably explain my situation as i'm not completely sure what res i should be using
[23:13] <Jordan_U> Leo: Try System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers, it might not work but it can't hurt
[23:13] <Leo> ok thx

[23:16] <gausie> rconan, so ive got a 82945G/GZ Integrated Graphics Controller in my computer and its plugged into an "Evesham V32EMRO" 32" tv. the spec i can find on the net suggests 1366/768 and i've got my res set to that currently, but its flowing over the edges of the screen
[23:16] <gausie> alraune, ok ive done that
[23:16] <Jordan_U> Leo: Try the Link I gave you before georgy's for the wireless specifically, it's cleaner ( and completely open source, and supports the pre-n features )
[23:16] <Guest32477> Where I can learn about HSPA modems and Ubuntu?
[23:16] <Leo> Jordan_U > ok, i'm trying this one first
[23:17] <Scunizi> gausie: try 1360/768
[23:17] <Musli> Hello I have no successfully installed KDE! but i have a small problem when I log out the screen is not as it should be the box where i'm going to enter my username is not in the center of the screen it's more to the right down corner and i cant manage to get to the option button that i think should be in the left corner :/
[23:18] <gausie> Scunizi, will that fix it? it fits perfectly on the X axis, but i loose about half of the top bar and the whole bottom bar
[23:18] <dido> how to install tar.gz files on Ubuntu 8.04
[23:18] <alraune> ﻿gausie:close gtk...
[23:18] <Scunizi> gausie: not sure but most cards don't natively output 1366 only 1360..
[23:18] <jrib> dido: what are you trying to install?
[23:18] <ds[de]> dido: you have to unpack the files first with tar
[23:18] <Jordan_U> dido: What are you trying to install specifically?
[23:18] <dru> hey, i have the video, right, left audio outputs on the front of my pc .. but when i plug them into my stereo through the aux red and white slots.. i get no sound
[23:18] <Gin> dido, they are not really installable, they are zip files
[23:19] <alraune> ﻿gausie:terminal: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart     (logs you OFF!)
[23:19] <georgy_28> Jordan_U, : the link you give to Leo is for a macboock, he have a macbook pro
[23:19] <Gin> dido, just like a zip file in windows, but on Ubuntu ppl use .tar.gz
[23:19] <Jordan_U> georgy_28: They use the same chipset
[23:19] <Scunizi> gausie: also some TV/Monitors try to "stretch" whatever signal they receive to fill the screen. You might also try turning off the tv in the monitor mode then turn it back on again after a few seconds of off time.
[23:19] <Musli> Hello I have now successfully installed KDE! but i have a small problem when I log out the screen is not as it should be the box where i'm going to enter my username is not in the center of the screen it's more to the right down corner and i cant manage to get to the option button that i think should be in the left corner :/

[23:20] <gr1m> jrib > I am upgrading currently -- thanks!
[23:20] <Gin> dido, for themes you can go to the theme manager and chose install, then select the .tar.gz file

[23:49] <fifthelephant> ubottu: is it bad practice to answer that here? even with warnings?
[23:49] <rzec> i am getting a : (initramfs) : prompt when trying to install ubuntu 8.04 64bit, anyone know what might cause this?  should i try to downlaod the 32 bit version?
[23:50] <wildrussian> hi
[23:50] <alraune> ﻿ rzec: what hardware ?
[23:50] <bobertdos> ﻿fifthelephant: What's the problem?
[23:50] <alraune> lo
[23:50] <unop> rzec, at what point of the install do you get this?
[23:51] <rzec> unop: after after the  ubuntu loading screen
[23:51] <alraune> unop(rz..) at first bootup, initrd broken
[23:51] <unop> rzec, i presume this is after you have completed the install and are attempting to boot up?
[23:51] <bobertdos> ﻿rand0m: Yeah, like trgpin said--not necessary UNLESS you're running some type of server or SSH, anything that necessitates direct system access.
[23:51] <wildrussian> does the server version of Ubuntu has GUI
[23:51] <Jordan_U> wildrussian: no
[23:51] <rand0m> k yeah i'm not worried about that
[23:51] <fifthelephant> bobertdos: no problem, was just curious :p
[23:52] <unop> wildrussian, no  .. server's do not usually have GUIs
[23:52] <rand0m> just wanna fix this sound problem without rebooting
[23:52] <IndyGunFreak> rand0m: what sound problem
[23:52] <rand0m> like, i press play in either amarok or banshee and it just plays for half a sec, then freezes
[23:52] <rzec> unop: no, when i try to run livecd or install from livecd it get  the (initramfs)
[23:52] <rand0m> also - browsers keep freezing - someone mentioned flash could be causing problems
[23:53] <unop> rzec, do you get any other errors prior to being dumped at the busybox prompt?
[23:53] <rzec> nope
[23:53] <unop> rzec, have you verified the CD?
[23:54] <bobertdos> ﻿rand0m: Yeah, that's likely. What version of flash are you running?
[23:54] <dusty_> Can anyone tell me what is wrong here: http://rafb.net/p/xukEz028.html it doesn't log any traffic ?
[23:55] <rzec> you mean check cd for errors from the boot up options?
[23:55] <rand0m> bobertdos, no idea.. not sure how to check eitehr
[23:55] <bobertdos> ﻿rand0m: Have you been running flash and media players simultaneously?
[23:56] <TBKDan> I'm trying to use Amarok's global shortcuts.  It works fine except for stop, Win+V.  It just makes the current window the size of the screen resolution.  I can't find anything in the global hotkeys config... any ideas?
[23:56] <unop> !md5 | rzec
