[00:00] <Demonho-br> hello what is the ubuntu user's manager ?
[00:00] <WDC> Demonho-br: What is?
[00:00] <WDC> Demonho-br: What do you mean?
[00:00] <Demonho-br> WDC, kubuntu uses kuser
[00:00] <WDC> Demonho-br: Oh I see. It's called "Users and Groups" in Ubuntu
[00:01] <rr73> Gnea: you go afk?
[00:01] <sonicdevo> Anyone have experience with LVM? I'm having trouble setting it up
[00:01] <Jagoo> unop: must be in a typo in there somewhere, says: -bash: export PATH="$PATH:/home/ut3server/ut3-dedicated/Binaries": No such file or directory
[00:01] <tonohono> sarthor: What's the command you're entering in Ubuntu to connect via SSH?
[00:01] <Demonho-br> WDC, but is it a software .. can i use it in another lnx ?
[00:01] <rr73> Who has scrollback of 20 minutes ago?
[00:01] <Jagoo> unop: the directory does in fact exist, copy pasted the path and cded to it
[00:01] <sarthor> tonohono, ssh sarthor@192.168.0.100 and then enter button
[00:01] <unop> Jagoo, you missing an echo from the command.
[00:01] <unop> Jagoo, echo 'export PATH="$PATH:/home/ut3server/ut3-dedicated/Binaries"' | sudo tee -a /etc/bash.bashrc
[00:01] <WDC> Demonho-br: Uh, no. It's a Ubuntu thing.
[00:01] <jsn> nobody else is having wireless device trouble today?
[00:01] <Demonho-br> WDC, thank you very much
[00:01] <tonohono> sarthor: And what error comes up?
[00:02] <WDC> Demonho-br: No problem
[00:02] <sarthor> no error. the terminal get hang
[00:02] <Demonho-br> WDC, sorry.. what is the command
[00:02] <WDC> jsn: I have seen SO MANY people with wireless issues.
[00:02] <Demonho-br> WDC, to run this "users and groups"
[00:02] <WDC> Demonho-br: I'm not sure of the command, but it's under system and Administration and at the bottom
[00:02] <rr73> Who has logs of 20 minutes ago?
[00:02] <jsn> WDC: got link?
[00:02] <unop> Demonho-br, users-admin perhaps
[00:02] <Demonho-br> WDC, thank u
[00:02] <Demonho-br> unop, thanks
[00:02] <WDC> Demonho-br: Anytimne
[00:02] <WDC> jsn: Link?
[00:03] <sarthor> tonohono, i have mentioned in detail here http://www.linuxpakistan.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6963 in the last post
[00:03] <adakos> I need some serious help. I reinstalled ubuntu server 6 LTS, and mounted one of my hard drives, it said it needed to check the hard drive -- now im missing LOTS and LOTS of files and folders...
[00:03] <jsn> WDC: Well, if it is biting a bunch of people today, maybe there is a link explaining it all, and maybe what to do.
[00:03] <Jagoo> unop: thanks, that worked, you have me quite puzzled tho, the resulting appending line from your command looked the same as the one I simply copy/pasted into the config
[00:03] <tonohono> sarthor: Ok. Try "ssh -vvv sarthorth@192.168.0.100" (Yes, 3 v's!). If a bunch shows up, upload output to pastebin or in the thread you linked.
[00:03] <Jagoo> yet, you way worked
[00:03] <jsn> adakos, what was the mount command you entered?
[00:04] <sarthor> tonohono, OK.
[00:04] <WDC> jsn: well, I haven't seen links, but I have seen about 4 people today, and 5 people yesterday wit' wireless issues. I didn't know how to help them, so I didn't engage
[00:04] <adakos> jsn: i used the mount command from the install menu. im not sure, let me check the fstab
[00:04] <kiosk> surabaya
[00:04] <jsn> adakos, maybe mtab, too
[00:04] <unop> Jagoo, so where exactly did you get this error then?  i assumed it was at the shell?
[00:05] <jsn> I was just thinking that it might not be mounted at the same point, since you didn't say which files were missing.
[00:05] <jsn> Like, you mounted a subdevice where before you mounted the whole drive.
[00:05] <rr73> How often are the irc logs updated online?
[00:05] <adakos> jsn: mounted /dev/sda1 /media/str1 ext defaults 0 2
[00:05] <WDC> kc8cua, ki4yjl
[00:05] <Kalapoika> unop: the command did something and in the end the terminal gave
[00:05] <Kalapoika> ***Error***: some autoconf macros required to build Empathy were not found in your aclocal path, or some forbidden macros were found.  Perhaps you need to adjust your ACLOCAL_FLAGS?
[00:05] <Demonho-br> unop, users-admin =)
[00:05] <unop> rr73, depends on the channel in question
[00:05] <adakos> jsn: i had 3 folders: movies, saved, tv
[00:05] <Jagoo> unop: I had that error on the shell upon relogon
[00:05] <jsn> adakos, and now?
[00:06] <rr73> unop~ this one
[00:06] <godzirra> I just went through the cups setup, and I have a printer that I can print a test page to from the CUPS internal webpage, but when I try and print from firefox, there are no printers listed.
[00:06] <alex101> Hi, i need some help please, i went out today and bought a cheap sigma camera and i downloaded cheese and camorama via termina and installed the webcam software but it still wont work.. can anyone help please?! i'll be very appreciative.
[00:06] <adakos> jsn: i have tv and saved -- and in the tv folder, i have 1/2 the folders i had before
[00:06] <unop> rr73, every 24 hours i assume
[00:06] <unop> rr73, or 12, can't remember
[00:06] <duygusohbetScrip> merhaba ben bir siteden ban yedim ip degistim mac adresimi degistim cokiler temizledim modemi kapatim actim ama yine o siteye giris yapamadim neden ? nasil gire bilirim o sohbet odasina ?
[00:06] <adakos> jsn: df -h shows that there 92G / 556G used
[00:06] <jsn> adakos, hrm.
[00:06] <unop> Kalapoika, if you have more text in the output .. put that up on a pastebin
[00:06] <alphae> hello
[00:06] <jsn> adakos, and you've run fsck already?
[00:07] <klndz03> unop, it's sitting on "Removing language-pack-en-base ..."
[00:07] <rr73> unop~ great so i need to wait that long for the answer that was given to me?
[00:07] <adakos> jsn: ive not run fsck manually
[00:07] <unop> Jagoo, let's see the output of this then.   tail -n 1 /etc/bash.bashrc
[00:07] <alex101> Hi, i need some help please, i went out today and bought a cheap sigma camera and i installed cheese and camorama via termina and installed the webcam software via wine but it still wont work.. can anyone help please?! i'll be very appreciative.
[00:08] <Jagoo> unop: nevermind, copy/pasting your exact suggestion did work, I am just puzzled why copypasting it into bash.bashrc didnt
[00:08] <jsn> adakos, not sure it will help. I really don't think mounting /dev/sda instead of /dev/sda1 would help, though, unless you have a non-standard volume manager
[00:08] <Jagoo> unop: and I mean copypasting the export command with path
[00:08] <Kalapoika> unop: I don't know what is a pastebin
[00:08] <adakos> hm
[00:08] <jsn> adakos, but, that'd be the next two things I'd try
[00:08] <unop> !pastebin > Kalapoika
[00:08] <alex101> : Hi, i need some help please, i went out today and bought a cheap sigma camera and i installed cheese and camorama via termina and installed the webcam software via wine but it still wont work.. can anyone help please?! i'll be very appreciative.
[00:09] <sarthor> tonohono, http://paste.ubuntu.com/38937/
[00:09] <adakos> jsn:  i dont see how that would help, but ill try it (since there was one partition, not multiple)
[00:09] <rr73> unop~ can you please search your scroll back for 25 minutes ago?
[00:09] <unop> Jagoo, you could have had quotes around the text you pasted - a side effect of some irc clients .. or just some general syntax error
[00:09] <jsn> alex101, have you googled "your sigma camera with model number" + "linux" ?
[00:09] <sharperguy> Right ok why does shit+backspace restart X/GNOME (not sure which) and more importantly how do I turn it off?
[00:09] <tonohono> sarthor: Alright, one moment
[00:09] <jsn> adakos, I was just thinking some volume manager might put stuff in the same folder on different partitions?
[00:09] <alex101> Nope but if i do could you help?
[00:09] <sarthor> tonohono, if i connect lan cable to my ethernet, then i can access via ssh . .. hope it  will clear the problem for you.
[00:09] <ajonat> hi! is there a way to hide disable the podcast plugin in rhythmbox?
[00:10] <Alonea> anyone have any luck with a Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5788 Gigabit Ethernet (rev 03)?
[00:10] <unop> klndz03, this is really strange and annoying
[00:10] <cdoublejj> so iadding a hardrive in ubuntu an pain the arse like very thing else in linux?
[00:11] <tonohono> sarthor: Alright. And does putty connect properly whether it is wired or wireless?
[00:11] <kevinO> sharperguy, if x freezes, then all you have to do is ctrl alt backspace so you dont have to hard reset your computer
[00:11] <adakos> jsn: i checked them all... nothing
[00:11] <Kalapoika> unop: http://paste.ubuntu.com/38939/
[00:11] <sarthor> tonohono, yes. putty is ok on lan and wlan both
[00:11] <adakos> jsn: all my volumes are mounted
[00:11] <jsn> adakos, well, then umount it and fsck.
[00:11] <alex101> When i search the sigma cam n model number in google i dont find much of it that can help me.
[00:11] <jsn> alex101, AND "linux"?
[00:11] <alex101> Yeah.
[00:12] <alex101> Could you look aswell?
[00:12] <klndz03> unop, I agree.
[00:12] <sharperguy> kevin083, That doesn't answer my question though. Shit+backspace seems to restart X/GNOME, forgetting about ctrl+alt+backspace
[00:12] <alex101> Cuz i honestly cant find it ;/
[00:12] <alex101> jsn: and tbh, i dont want it to of been a waste of money.
[00:12] <jsn> alex101, well, try it with a different but similar model number
[00:12] <Johnny_5> well doesn't seem 2 b workin' either...
[00:12] <adakos> jsn: i fscked it: clean 752/ 449/65888 files
[00:12] <Johnny_5> to
[00:12] <jsn> alex101, you don't want to waste money? Geesh. gedt with the capitalist system!
[00:12] <kevinO> sharperguy, is it set as a keyobard shortcut? or is your ctrl key stuck?
[00:12] <Johnny_5> doesn't seem to be workin'
[00:12] <klndz03> unop, All because the power went out when it was updating...
[00:12] <jsn> adakos, and your remount and looking showed???
[00:13] <sharperguy> kevin083, my ctrl key isn't stuck
[00:13] <unop> Kalapoika, try this first.  sudo apt-get build-dep empathy
[00:13] <adakos> jsn: no change.

[00:13] <adakos> jsn: i had nonstandard characters in some of the filenamed.
[00:14] <adakos> jsn: would that have done it ?
[00:14] <tonohono> sarthor: I hope it's not too much trouble, but could you also pastebin the ssh -vvv when you connect via wired? It may help to compare the output for wired/wireless.
[00:14] <sharperguy> kevin083, And I have no idea if its set as a shortcut - it isn't in gnome anyway
[00:14] <jsn> adakos, did you mount it as the right type of fs?
[00:14] <gleyve> Can I customize my bootscreen?
[00:14] <sharperguy> kevin083, ah I think its got something to do with compiz-fusion
[00:14] <kevinO> sharperguy, yeah, its not a keyboard shortcut problem
[00:14] <adakos> jsn: i set it to auto. shoudl i have set it manually ?
[00:14] <jsn> It just says ext! That can't be right.
[00:14] <sarthor> tonohono, OK. for that i will Disconnet.. i will be back in a while
[00:14] <jsn> ext2, anyway
[00:15] <adakos> jsn: either way. hrm.
[00:15] <adakos> let me see something
[00:15] <tonohono> sarthor: Alright, I won't go anywhere!
[00:15] <kevinO> sharperguy, you may be right, its beyond my knowledge though, sorry i couldnt help you more
[00:15] <sarthor> tonohono, ok. thank you
[00:16] <sharperguy> kevin083, gimf (fixed it)
[00:16] <alex101> jsn: still cant find anything
[00:16] <Kalapoika> unop: the instructions I'm trying to follow: http://live.gnome.org/Empathy/Install
[00:16] <Johnny_5> i know its: e2label device [newlabel] but i've tried everything i can think of for the device...sdb...and disk both and i still can't get it to change the name....
[00:16] <Kalapoika> unop, if it helps :)
[00:17] <asdasdasdas> a
[00:17] <unop> !info empathy
[00:17] <unop> Kalapoika, why aren't you using the package from the repos?
[00:17] <Alonea> anyone have any luck with a Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5788 Gigabit Ethernet (rev 03)?
[00:17] <tonohono> sarthor: If you're still there, hold on a bit. I may have found a solution, your problem seems to be related to how Ubuntu is handling your wireless.
[00:17] <FrFluffyBottom> Hi all, would anyone recommend swfdec player or gnash for ff? Want to avoid adobe/proprietary if I can
[00:17] <alex101> jsh: cant find anything still on google.
[00:17] <alex101> jsn: *
[00:18] <FrFluffyBottom> Mainly using flash as a means of watching youtube and navigating some sites that demand it, nothing heavy
[00:18] <sarthor> tonohono, http://paste.ubuntu.com/38942/ its ssh with lan
[00:18] <gleyve> Can I customize my bootscreen logo?
[00:18] <Slade> what's the command to show the desktop... instead of clicking the "Show Desktop" button?
[00:18] <tonohono> sarthor: Ok, one sec
[00:18] <jsn> alex101, I don't have any special knowledge of those devices
[00:18] <Slade> using gnome :)
[00:18] <sarthor> k
[00:18] <alex101> Anything u can suggest or?
[00:19] <FrFluffyBottom> Slade: You can map ti to whatever you like in preferences - I changed mine to F11, but you can customise
[00:19] <zzl> does anyone know of a good OS that is good for my old computer that and that can run windows executibles well? all I'm trying to do on that old computer is to use the windows .exe to view stocks
[00:19] <Kalapoika> unop: seriously it's there ?!? all this for nothing and now it's there. sorry for wasting your time unop and thanks for the help
[00:20] <f3rr3llll> fdsa
[00:20] <f3rr3llll> hello
[00:20] <f3rr3llll> i'm from brazi
[00:20] <unop> Kalapoika, search the repos before going out to install packages -- you'd be surprised to find almost all you need in the repos
[00:20] <f3rr3llll> im starter in the ubuntu
[00:20] <Johnny_5> i know its: e2label device [newlabel] but i've tried everything i can think of for the device...sdb...and disk both and i still can't get it to change the name....
[00:20] <unop> Kalapoika, s/install/build/
[00:20] <jsn> Is there a way to tell when my currently running kernel was INSTALLED?
[00:21] <Slade> FrFluffyBottom: is there an actual command that does it?
[00:21] <unop> Johnny_5, you can only change the label of a partition i.e. /dev/sdb1 .. make sure you have the right device name there
[00:21] <zzl> does anyone know of a good OS that is good for my old computer that and that can run windows executibles well? all I'm trying to do on that old computer is to use the windows .exe to view stocks
[00:21] <jsn> that was it! my kernel upgrade got rid of my wireless modules!
[00:21] <jsn> YAY!
[00:21] <Johnny_5> k
[00:21] <unop> Johnny_5, if you are unsure about which device .. check the output of  sudo fdisk -l
[00:22] <tonohono> sarthor: Run " lspci | grep Network " Paste the resulting line here please
[00:22] <jsn> My wireless card disappeared because I had hand-compiled in the modules I needed, today's kernel upgrade basically erased those!
[00:22] <favro> I edit the kernel line at grub to profile the boot sequence like I have done many times before but in hardy it doesn't reprofile - am I missing something new?
[00:23] <sarthor> tonohono, 0b:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g (rev 01)
[00:23] <cambazz> hello. how do I save iptable rules so it starts on startup
[00:23] <sarthor> i have installed the driver b43-wfcutter i think
[00:24] <unop> klndz03, does this return anything? ls -l /var/lib/dpkg/info/language-pack*
[00:25] <unop> cambazz, put your commands in a script and call the script on boot. ?
[00:25] <unop> !boot | cambazz
[00:25] <ksc654> Trying to get file sharing between a windows machine and Ubuntu. I'm using a 4 port netgear wireless DSL router. I can ping both machines from each other by ip address but not by name. Any ideas?

[00:25] <bcurtis> i dont' know if this is just me, but can anyone else logon without going into low graphics mode in Intrepid?
[00:27] <unop> klndz03, ok.  gksudo gedit /var/lib/dpkg/info/language-pack-en-base.postinst  ## and add   set -x   after line #1 .. then try   sudo dpkg --configure -a  again
[00:27] <TubbyCat12> New to Ubuntu - what's a good media player?
[00:28] <tonohono> sarthor: Alright, check out this guide. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=766560 From what I've gathered, the ssh problem you experience is due to the Broadcome restricted drivers. This guide will help you setup wireless drivers with ndiswrapper
[00:28] <biped> hi everyone. I used to have a problem with a machine i put into standby under gnome the other day and it wouldn't start any more. The problem itself has been solved, but since then, i cannot open any locations in gnome: i keep getting error messages "folder or file not found". I also downloaded a file to the desktop with firefox, but gnome doesn't display the file there, even though firefox...
[00:28] <biped> ...DL manager finished without errors. What seems to be the problem here?
[00:28] <Maczimus> TubbyCat12 - Banshee and Amarok are good choices
[00:28] <TubbyCat12> alright
[00:28] <TubbyCat12> thanks
[00:28] <tonohono> sarthor: Once you install and reboot and reconnect successfully to the internet with wireless, try the ssh login once more
[00:29] <sarthor> tonohono, OK. let me try, but i am new to linux.. this will be a try. there is only 20% chance to slove this.
[00:29] <durl> anyone available to help a semi-noob with an ubuntu possibly active directory problem?
[00:29] <mdnc_3000> UAUUUUUUU
[00:29] <cannabidiol> SO many people in here
[00:29] <cannabidiol> Hello!
[00:29] <unop> klndz03, i have to go out now for a few hours .. will be back later on. If no one else can help you in the meantime.. pm me with the results, ad i'll try and get back to you after.
[00:29] <Syngin01> like to hear durl
[00:29] <expl0ited2> biped: you forget to shut down the computer when the download is done.so that it had time to rest.
[00:29] <tonohono> sarthor: You can do it :) Most the the guide will involve copying and pasting commands from the guide to the terminal
[00:29] <durl> syngin01 - anyway to pm?
[00:30] <Syngin01> ok
[00:30] <sorin-mihai> hi. can anyone help me analize some logs?
[00:30] <TubbyCat12> will banshee run wma/wmv/wav?
[00:30] <sarthor> tonohono, Ok. thank you. if the problem presists i will bug you again ;)
[00:30] <klndz03> unop, Thank you, thank you, thank you! I will keep you updated!
[00:30] <tonohono> sarthor: hehe, ok
[00:30] <biped> expl0ited2 r u trying 2 b facetious?
[00:30] <sarthor> tonohono, thanks again. bye for now.
[00:31] <Expl0ited> biped: yes, Im sorry.
[00:31] <biped> don't worry. I did have to smirk a bit
[00:31] <EruditeHermit> hey, is there a way to find out what packages are installed on a machine and compare them to what is installed on a default install?
[00:31] <Maczimus> TubbyCat with the proper codecs it should run fine... in add remove look for gstreamer
[00:32] <Maczimus> also both players can be installed through the add remove application
[00:32] <biped> Expl0ited you don't happen to have a real solution, do you?
[00:32] <Expl0ited> biped: I missed the question.
[00:33] <biped> Expl0ited: I love you.
[00:34] <bcurtis> never knew IRC could be a romantic spot
[00:35] <sonicdevo> ﻿Anyone have experience with LVM? I'm having trouble setting it up  I have 3 hdd in my computer 1: 40GB - where system is installed to 2&3: 500GB ea. - trying to use LVM to make them appear as one drive
[00:35] <Expl0ited> bcurtis: ... indeed it can be.
[00:35] <biped> sorry wrong channel... so here's my ubuntu question again: I used to have a problem with a machine i put into standby under gnome the other day and it wouldn't start any more. The problem itself has been solved, but since then, i cannot open any locations in gnome: i keep getting error messages "folder or file not found". I also downloaded a file to the desktop with firefox, but gnome...
[00:35] <biped> ...doesn't display the file there, even though firefox DL manager finished without errors. What seems to be the problem here?
[00:36] <Alonea> woah...since when does broadcom make linux drivers for any of their wifi cards?
[00:36] <bcurtis> Expl0ited, I've been an IRC user (not necessarily on here) for along time.  Not too many relationships i know if spawn from IRC convos.  But e-harmony watch out!
[00:37] <Expl0ited> Alonea: manufacturers rarely make drivers for their products with linux, its outside programmers that do.
[00:37] <Alonea> Expl0ited: I found the driver inside a cab (exe) from the hp site.
[00:38] <Expl0ited> Alonea: welcome to the world of linux friendly HP
[00:38] <Expl0ited> I said rarely, HP is one of these exceptions.
[00:38] <Alonea> Expl0ited: and all of the release notes have broadcoms address and stuff. either way its nifty
[00:38] <Alonea> as long as it works.
[00:39] <user881> im having some real problems getting my screen recognized by the nvidia drivers .. ive tried the help pages but am really stuck. could someone help me with this please?
[00:39] <Expl0ited> Alonea: ever heard of HPLIP?
[00:39] <Expl0ited> its a huge set of driver specifically for HP printers..
[00:40] <Alonea> Expl0ited: no actually. but linux is very good with printers from them I have noticed
[00:40] <Alonea> Expl0ited: at least off the top of my head I have heard of hplip.
[00:40] <Alonea> have not
[00:40] <Alonea> Expl0ited: i need sleep...
[00:41] <foxynet> salut
[00:41] <Expl0ited> my work printer worked out of the box with linux, the windows users needed special software...
[00:41] <Slade> Expl0ited: are u using CUPS to handle printing?
[00:41] <Expl0ited> it was HP
[00:41] <Expl0ited> slade yeah I was
[00:41] <tuxice> HP is very good w/ printers
[00:43] <Alonea> Expl0ited: i have noticed that. more points for linux. ^__^

[00:52] <tonohono> sarthor_: Are you able to connect to the internet wirelessly?
[00:52] <sarthor_> tonohono, Yes.
[00:53] <sarthor_> tonohono, but not to ssh.
[00:53] <SeaPhor> user881, that is a sample, add your res like mine are
[00:53] <carlos> Ok
[00:53] <carlos> I am sorry about my English

[00:54] <tonohono> sarthor_: Hrm. What are the results of the command " lsmod | grep bcm " ?
[00:54] <favro> how come setting the boot sequence to be profiled doesn't do anything anymore?
[00:54] <bcurtis> anyone getting "low graphics mode" everytime they start intrepid?
[00:54] <carlos> I want to install Linux MCE on Ubuntu 8.04, and I am thinking to intall first KDE on my Computer, then Linux MCE
[00:54] <SeaPhor> user881, then save, exit and restart x,,, do you know how to edit the xorg.conf?

[00:55] <sarthor_> ssh -vvv is here http://paste.ubuntu.com/38955/ pasting your required

[00:55] <Slade> carlos: why KDE and not Gnome?
[00:55] <sarthor_> tonohono, nothing
[00:55] <theraptor> OldToker: thanks, it seems to work
[00:56] <sarthor_> tonohono, no output for lsmod |grep bcm
[00:56] <carlos> I already got GNOME, but I am new in Ubuntu
[00:56] <bcurtis> bastid_raZor, ty
[00:56] <carlos> And I cound not find a way to install Linux MCE on Hardy Heron GNOME
[00:56] <Dillo_of_Faeo> Audio in Skype crackles and pops-- any ideas on what might be causing this?
[00:56] <SebNaitsabes> carlos:   MCE is hardly differnedt to just well Ubuntu
[00:56] <Slade> ok, what is Linux MCE?
[00:56] <SebNaitsabes> carlos: you can install the same apps in MCE
[00:56] <SebNaitsabes> slade:  I thought that to, but then I figured it out Media Centre Edition
[00:57] <SebNaitsabes> carlos: you can install any app that is in MCE in a standard Ubuntu
[00:57] <kapace> what the heck, upgrader gui is telling me to do a partial distro upgrade, but im running 8.04, is there a newer version??
[00:57] <sarthor_> i ran /etc/init.d/wirelessfix.sh  manually too. but no output still.
[00:57] <SebNaitsabes> carlos: and you can also install kubuntu really easilley in your current Ubuntu install
[00:57] <carlos> I really don't know what app´s mean?
[00:58] <SebNaitsabes> carlos:  applications
[00:58] <SebNaitsabes> carlos: or packages if you like
[00:58] <SebNaitsabes> carlos: programs even or software even
[00:58] <sarthor_> tonohono, root@salaar-laptop:~# lspci |grep BCM
[00:58] <sarthor_> 0b:00.0 Network controller: Broadcom Corporation BCM4312 802.11b/g (rev 01)
[00:58] <sarthor_> bcm was capital i think tonohono ??
[00:59] <StudentDriver> is it normal for graphics to be noticably lower when running ubuntu than with xp?
[00:59] <carlos> OK
[00:59] <carlos> Got it
[00:59] <bastid_raZor> sarthor_; are you trying to ssh while being root?
[00:59] <SebNaitsabes> carlos:  sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[00:59] <sarthor_> no
[01:00] <sarthor_> bastid_raZor, i tried both
[01:00] <bastid_raZor> sarthor_; okay, i have searched but haven't found anything relevant.
[01:00] <carlos> Ok
[01:00] <brendan_> Hello, i'm having some trouble with nfs-kernel-server in ubuntu 8.04
[01:00] <carlos> I am already installing KDE
[01:00] <carlos> Thanks guys
[01:00] <rickasdf> hmm
[01:01] <sarthor_> bastid_raZor, hmm..Ok.
[01:01] <rickasdf> i've decided to give freenode a chance
[01:01] <sarthor_> tonohono, you gone?
[01:01] <brendan_> When i export a directory to a client, and that directory has another file system mounted in one of its subdirectories, clients freeze while trying to access the export
[01:01] <rickasdf> how do i register?
[01:01] <brendan_> exports without filesystems mounted in one of there subdirectories work fine
[01:01] <brendan_> also,  this worked fine in feisty
[01:01] <SebNaitsabes> StudentDriver: what do you mean exactly?
[01:02] <StudentDriver> sebnaitsabes: I've noticed that graphics viewed when I'm running XP look significantly clearer than when I use ubuntu. I'm using the same version of firefox on both OS'es
[01:02] <Maczimus> sarthor, sorry did not see the problem. are you having it with your broadcomm wireless?
[01:02] <bastid_raZor> rickasdf; /msg nickserv help
[01:03] <carlos> Ones KDE will be installed on my PC, can I find a program such SYNAPTIC PACKAGE MANAGER?
[01:03] <tonohono> sarthor_: Nope, just figuring stuff out yet. It's odd internet works with the ndiswrapper, but not ssh. Same symptom as before, right? Cannot ctrl+c out of ssh login?
[01:03] <SebNaitsabes> carlos: yes
[01:03] <carlos> On KDE
[01:03] <sarthor_> tonohono, Yes. Same as b4.
[01:03] <SebNaitsabes> carlos: you can run Ubuntu/Gnome apps in Kubuntu/KDE
[01:03] <carlos> Which one is that?
[01:03] <user881> no joy :(
[01:03] <SebNaitsabes> carlos:  just like Kubuntu/KDE   apps can be run in Ubuntu/Gnome
[01:04] <sarthor_> tonohono, its becoming challanging problem.
[01:04] <SebNaitsabes> carlos:  synaptic is the GNome way of doing it
[01:04] <sarthor_> challenging*
[01:04] <Maczimus> sarthor_ having problems with Broadcomm?
[01:04] <carlos> My english is not strong enough
[01:04] <SebNaitsabes> carlos:  kubuntu has something else that is not as good by a long way
[01:04] <sarthor_> Maczimus, yes.
[01:04] <carlos> What that means?
[01:04] <purpleback> hi
[01:04] <purpleback> hi
[01:04] <christopher_> you can install synaptic in kubuntu
[01:04] <purpleback> which key is my superkey? >.>;
[01:05] <SebNaitsabes> carlos: which language
[01:05] <SebNaitsabes> ?
[01:05] <carlos> Shoundn't I install KDE?
[01:05] <bastid_raZor> purpleback; probably the windows key
[01:05] <purpleback> im on a toshiba laptop
[01:05] <sarthor_> Maczimus, everything is fine, but i cant ssh to any other computer from my terminal, and can ssh from putty.
[01:05] <SebNaitsabes> carlos: your language is?
[01:05] <Maczimus> i got mine to work by hooking in wired, and then opening synaptic package manager, then do a search for fwcutter and select and install the package that has the ubuntu logo it then asked me if i wanted to download the firmware and then it works ndiswrapper not needed
[01:05] <SebNaitsabes> carlos: you install kubuntu which is KDE3
[01:05] <purpleback> bastid_raZor: i installed gnome do and it said that when i press the windows key (superkey)+space it should activate it.
[01:05] <purpleback> nothing
[01:05] <sarthor_> tonohono, is also trying to figure out the problem.
[01:06] <Maczimus> ok
[01:06] <SebNaitsabes> carlos: if you want KDE4 as well you can install that as well
[01:06] <Maczimus> wierd..
[01:06] <bastid_raZor> purpleback; activate what?
[01:06] <purpleback> gnome do
[01:06] <Maczimus> sarthor_ sorry, thought you had a problem getting it working at all.
[01:07] <bastid_raZor> purpleback;  what is gnome do ?
[01:07] <christopher_> carlos, what is the problem?
[01:07] <purpleback> google it :D popular program that lets you bring up apps easily
[01:07] <purpleback> ok but so how can i find out which key  my superkey is? >.>
[01:07] <Maczimus> purpleback (it's the Windows key)
[01:07] <bastid_raZor> purpleback; the windows key is the super key.
[01:08] <purpleback> it's not working
[01:08] <purpleback> that's why im asking.
[01:08] <KellyCS> question for you.. I'm trying to do something semi-obscure. I'm trying to make an x86 bootable USB stick on my intel mac, so I can install it on my eeepc. Any suggestions of where I should look/start?
[01:08] <tonohono> sarthor_: When following the guide at step 2, did you download the sp34152.exe file, or another one?
[01:08] <sarthor_> another one. coz the file is not there.
[01:08] <sarthor_> tonohono, ftp://ftp.compaq.com/pub/softpaq/sp34001-34500/
[01:09] <gaile> hi people..
[01:09] <christopher_> kelly, you can try the dd command
[01:09] <sarthor_> tonohono, i downloaded ftp://ftp.compaq.com/pub/softpaq/sp34001-34500/sp34152.exe
[01:09] <gaile> what package/s we can use for ubunto server to monitor users activity?
[01:09] <HiZaM> guys i need help with wubi
[01:10] <HiZaM> guys
[01:10] <tonohono> sarthor_: Ah, ok. Because your card is revision (rev01) and not (rev02), you need to download wget ftp://ftp.compaq.com/pub/softpaq/sp33001-33500/sp33008.exe instead.
[01:10] <StudentDriver> certain graphics on firefox look blotchy when i'm using ubuntu as opposed to windows xp, does anyone know of any possible reasons for this?
[01:10] <Slade> gaile: to what extent?
[01:11] <sarthor_> tonohono, shoult i start from step 2?? how to remove the older one??
[01:11] <dumbdum> How do I repair "Grub" please
[01:11] <HiZaM> I can't connect through wireless
[01:11] <gaile> Slade: i wanna see all their activities...
[01:11] <sarthor_> tonohono, and what will be steps again. and what change i will need to make.
[01:11] <tonohono> sarthor_: Follow the guide once more  (I hope!) but replace the wget download link in the guide with the one I provided. You might encounter errors running the guide a second time, but ignore them, as you're only replacing existing settings with the same one.
[01:11] <newpers> where do i go for bleeding edge packages?
[01:11] <bastid_raZor> sarthor_; why are getting an exe file for ubuntu?
[01:11] <tonohono> sarthor_: The *only* change should be replacing the sp34125.exe download line with the one I linked :)
[01:12] <HiZaM> could anyone help me?
[01:12] <sarthor_> bastid_raZor, Coz i need solution.\\
[01:12] <sarthor_> ;)
[01:12] <purpleback> so how can i set up a superkey?
[01:12] <bastid_raZor> purpleback; google it ;)
[01:12] <sarthor_> tonohono, Ok.
[01:12] <HiZaM> guys help please
[01:13] <gaile> anybody know ubunto packages that can monitor users activity?
[01:13] <Daisuke_Laptop> HiZaM: if you want any help, you're going to have to be a LOT more specific than just "i can't connect through wireless"
[01:13] <HiZaM> thanks
[01:13] <Daisuke_Laptop> while some of us are working on our psychics correspondence course, i don't think anyone's graduated yet, unfortunately :)
[01:14] <HiZaM> ok, i installed WUBI and rebooted but i don't see any network connections
[01:14] <HiZaM> so i can't connect
[01:15] <HiZaM> ...
[01:16] <gaile> does anybody here know any ubunto packages that can monitor users activity?
[01:16] <mralexandro> simple question. how do you add more workspaces, lets say i want 4 instead of 2
[01:16] <davis_> I can't get a networked printer to work on both Linux machines and our old Windows computer.  How can I configure it to run on both?
[01:16] <Daisuke_Laptop> HiZaM: do not private message me without asking first, it is generally frowned upon
[01:17] <gaile> davis_ you need to search for the printer driver.. i think
[01:17] <purpleback> sodoes anyone know how come gnome do wont come up when i hit superkey + space?
[01:17] <Alistair> Help: bug in Nautilus: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=894892&highlight=nautilus    also see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=830032&highlight=couldn%27t+display+network%3A%2F%2F%2F&page=2
[01:17] <Daisuke_Laptop> HiZaM: perhaps i wasn't clear.  do not private message me.
[01:18] <davis_> I installed it, it shows up on the windows machine, but as "access denied"
[01:18] <davis_> I turned all of the security on the sharing off the printer from the linux machine that's acting as our server
[01:18] <HiZaM> sorry, you weren't clear, the first time and now I get it now one here wants to help
[01:18] <davis_> do I need to install it with samba from the get-go?
[01:19] <Slade> gaile: well all the /var/log stuff shows all system activity
[01:20] <Slade> and if they're using bash, there's a file called bash_history in their home directory which shows all the commands issued
[01:20] <gaile> davis_ : maybe you need admin privileged
[01:20] <Slade> and the system monitor shows all processes being run
[01:21] <gaile> Slade: I want to monitor everything they do.. that possible?
[01:21] <mralexandro> how do you add more workspaces in Ubuntu 8.04 hardy heron. i want 4 workspaces instead of only 2
[01:21] <x3n0>  I'm having a few issues wrestling with my alsa configuration atm... :(
[01:22] <Maczimus> mralexandro: right click on the workspace switcher and select number you want
[01:22] <Chaotic_Descent> I'm trying to use something called esniper for sniper bidding on eBay and every time I run the command I get "segmentation fault" and it doesn't seem to work. I have no idea what that might imply.
[01:22] <Penopticon> sniper bidding is forbidden
[01:23] <hololight> chaotic_decent: that is a problem with the program itself
[01:23] <sarthor> tonohono, still the same. i restarted the pc. after restarting i can access the net via wlan, but the ssh problem is there. and i think i will also not be able to use kismet.
[01:23] <Chaotic_Descent> I'm pretty sure I'm running the right command line and everything. it wants me to point it to files.
[01:23] <Chaotic_Descent> sniper bidding is not forbidden.
[01:23] <Teisei_> mralexandro: Right click on the Workspace Switcher applet and select "Preferences"
[01:23] <mralexandro> thanks, but i already did that, when i had enabled compiz cube effect
[01:23] <mralexandro> it did not work
[01:23] <mralexandro> hmm
[01:23] <Teisei_> You should see "Number of workspaces" there
[01:23] <mralexandro> i will check it out
[01:23] <Teisei_> I know what you mean now
[01:24] <Teisei_> Hold on
[01:24] <mralexandro> ok
[01:24] <player1> ;poasjg';jga
[01:24] <hololight> CD: a seg fault is a problem with that program in particular; I recommend contacting the developers.
[01:24] <Chaotic_Descent> what's strange is I can't find any esniper file on my HD, despite being able to run it from the command prompt. so I don't know where it's even installed.
[01:24] <gaile> Slade: thanks i'll check that out, but is there any packages that can monitor all activities?
[01:25] <Chaotic_Descent> hololight: ok, thanks. :( awww. darnit. I really wanted to bid AND go to sleep.
[01:25] <Daisuke_Laptop> Chaotic_Descent: try: which esniper
[01:25] <Slade> gaile: not really.
[01:26] <BobPenguin> Hello guys. When I turn off my computer I get a couple of system warnings with red letters, but I can't read them since the scroll is so fast. At what part of the system log application should I look for the warnings?
[01:26] <Chaotic_Descent> daisuke_Laptop: thanks.
[01:26] <Teisei_> Do you have CompizConfig Settings Manager ? From there, select "General Options". Click "Desktop Size" tab and you can see "Horizontal Virtual Size" there ... set is bigger and see what happens
[01:26] <gaile> Slade: ok thanks though...
[01:26] <Teisei_> mralexandro: ↑
[01:27] <baba_b00ie> running ubuntu 8.04 and would like to manually edit the gnome desktop file.. just forgot the file and program to do it with
[01:27] <Slade> gaile: what is it that you're trying to accomplish by monitoring every activity on the server?
[01:27] <baba_b00ie> i want to put drive and trash icons back on the desktop
[01:28] <Ted_> anyone know how to make a looping bash script
[01:28] <mralexandro> ok i wil check it out now, but changing back to cube plugin requires reboot, will report what happens
[01:29] <Teisei_> Cube Plugin does not need reboot :/
[01:29] <Teisei_> Too late -.-;
[01:29] <gaile> Slade: Ijust wanna know if some of my users are hacking others account...
[01:30] <bastid_raZor> baba_b00ie; gconf-editor
[01:31] <Slade> Well then you need to employ certain security policies/packages
[01:31] <Slade> gaile: figure out how open your system is, and then start locking it down.
[01:32] <Slade> gaile: are you working for some kind of web/shell hosting company?
[01:32] <BobPenguin> Hello. I get this in my logs: "GLib-CRITICAL: g_hash_table_lookup_extended: assertion `hash_table != NULL' failed" Could some one give me a hint of what does that mean?
[01:32] <Slade> BobPenguin: that may be a question better suited for Google.com
[01:32] <crdlb> BobPenguin: it means that the app has a bug
[01:32] <gaile> Slade: i have to planned.. im doing these for trial only.. i need to know my wya around first
[01:33] <BobPenguin> thanks Slade and crdlb
[01:33] <crdlb> Slade: don't do that, please
[01:33] <Slade> crdlb: ?
[01:33] <purpleback> how do i get more than 2 work spaces? :3
[01:33] <BobPenguin> It's ok, I searched at google first...
[01:33] <baba_b00ie> bastid_raZor,  ty i figured it out
[01:33] <Slade> gaile: well, are you giving users access to shell accounts?
[01:34] <gaile> Slade: yes sir...
[01:34] <linxeh> gaile: "oops"
[01:34] <Teisei_> purpleback: In Compiz or in Metacity ?
[01:34] <TubbyCat12> is there a photo editor similar to ms paint?
[01:34] <bastid_raZor> baba_b00ie; cool, good luck
[01:34] <crdlb> BobPenguin: can you tell which app is causing it?
[01:34] <bastid_raZor> TubbyCat12; gimp
[01:34] <BobPenguin> purpleblack: right clik en the any space, go to preferences, change it to more that 3
[01:34] <gaile> linxeh: hi
[01:34] <BobPenguin> let me see crdlb
[01:34] <mralexandro> Teisei_ it worked. i got 4 walls just by adjusting horizonal size to 4
[01:34] <mralexandro> but whatever i did with the vertical it made no change
[01:34] <Teisei_> mralexandro: Good to hear :)
[01:35] <linxeh> gaile: giving users that you dont personally know and trust shell accounts is a dangerous business, especially so if you arent experienced enough to correctly lock your machine down
[01:35] <Slade> gaile: ok. well look into chroot jails and stuff like that. Also, if you really wanna be strict, start changing non-common commands' groups into something else, and only give trusted users access to those groups.
[01:35] <Teisei_> Yes
[01:35] <mralexandro> is it suposed to add workspaces to top and bottom of the cube
[01:36] <Slade> gaile: and there are utilities like tripwire, etc out there that can help you  lock your stuff down.
[01:36] <Slade> yo bobertdos
[01:36] <bobertdos> Hey, Slade!
[01:36] <Teisei_> I don't really know
[01:36] <gaile> linxeh and Slade: im going it as trial
[01:36] <zboy417> hey everyone, on my Toshiba A135-S4527 how do i make the volume wheel change the volume less?
[01:36] <hololight> tubbycat12: actually The GIMP is closer to photoshop than to ms paint
[01:36] <kindofabuzz> i set my default to thunar but some folders still open up with nautilus.  any ideas?
[01:36] <Teisei_> Maybe they show up if you are using Expo plugin
[01:36] <Slade> gaile: understandable, but you don't want your system to become compromised... trial or not.
[01:36] <crdlb> mralexandro: no, the top and bottom cannot be used as workspaces
[01:36] <BobPenguin> crdbl: I do not know really how to read logs. Is "gdm[5672]" an application? The whole line reads: "Aug 19 04:02:21 Maggi gdm[5672]: GLib-CRITICAL: g_hash_table_lookup_extended: assertion `hash_table != NULL' failed "
[01:36] <crdlb> mralexandro: vertical is meant for the Wall plugin only
[01:36] <hololight> tubbycat12: try searching 'add/remove programs' or synaptic for "paint"
[01:37] <mralexandro> ok i see, thanks:)
[01:37] <Slade> BobPenguin: gdm = Gnome Display Manager
[01:37] <Teisei_> crdlb: I bet it works with Expo too ?
[01:37] <hololight> bobpenguin gdm handles login and related functions
[01:37] <crdlb> Teisei_: yes, but that's not really userfriendly :)
[01:37] <Slade> BobPenguin: that's the thing that gives you the graphical login window for gnome...when your computer start.
[01:37] <Teisei_> That's true ^^;
[01:38] <Teisei_> But Vista has only one desktop, and it isn't userfriendly
[01:38] <gaile> Slade: got that.. :) thanks guys.. but please do let me know any packages that can log all users activity..
[01:38] <BobPenguin> thanks Slade and Hololight. Should I care about the bug? Does it represent a danger of some sort?
[01:38] <Slade> BobPenguin: are you able to login ok
[01:38] <BobPenguin> yeah slade
[01:38] <Slade> gaile: all logging stuff is done in /var/log
[01:38] <Slade> common messages are in /var/log/messages
[01:39] <Slade> daemon (process) logs are in /var/log/daemon.log
[01:39] <zboy417> On my Toshiba A135-S4527 when i use the volume wheel it changes the volume really fast...is there a way to slow this down?
[01:39] <hololight> BobPenguin: it could, it could not (i am think security); but if everything works....
[01:39] <mralexandro> My first time using ubuntu properly. just want to say. great service and a great OS impression so far. thanks for the help and i guess i will be back ehre alot:)
[01:39] <gaile> Slade and linxeh: guys you know website toturials for web/shell hosting? appreciate it guys..
[01:39] <simps> Can anyone suggest a nice VM App to run on Ubuntu?
[01:39] <hololight> simps: virtualBox is my fav
[01:40] <Slade> gaile: just do a standard search. Though if i were you, I'd go to amazon, barnes and nobles, etc... and look for linux security books.
[01:40] <greg_universe_> i use vbox too
[01:40] <linxeh> gaile: google, but I'd advise you take a course in unix security. this is a nightmare. there is a reason few web hosts give shell access
[01:40] <BobPenguin> Thanks Hololight. I also have a warning on the application "gdmgreeter[5998]". Guess it is related to login as well. Everything seems to work right. Should I worry about that one?
[01:40] <simps> hololight, greg_universe_, virtualbox-ose under synaptic package manager. install that?
[01:41] <gaile> Slade: never thought about that.. ok i'll well do that..
[01:41] <Slade> gaile: it's the best reference you'll have
[01:41] <greg_universe_> actually i went to teh site and installed teh deb package
[01:41] <jhon007> hi
[01:41] <gaile> linxeh: yah im googling it now, i will take your advise guys.. appreciate it..
[01:42] <gaile> Slade and linxeh: thank you guys...
[01:42] <mcw> haaaaaaaaaaaaaay
[01:42] <Dr_willis> greg_universe_,  that may or may not of installed the proper 'modules' the kernel needs for virtualbox.
[01:42] <BobPenguin> Thanks a lot, Slade, Hololight, crdbl for your kind help! UBUNTU FOREVER!
[01:42] <linxeh> well, at least until the next big thing comes along :)
[01:43] <z1> Gnea: my programs still freeze up but the usb problem seems to be fixed
[01:43] <Slade> gaile: no problem. Even though you're using Ubuntu, you can check out other distro's security books too. You never know what you might learn
[01:43] <Slade> BobPenguin: You're welcome
[01:43] <linxeh> gaile: I would look at debian security stuff too - more likely to find hardening stuff there imo
[01:43] <mcw> how do you download and install programs from the internet and what form of zipped file is used for ubuntu
[01:44] <mcw> tar ect....
[01:44] <gaile> linxeh and Slade: im writing it down now.. im gonna try that...
[01:44] <linxeh> mcw: the main way is from the repositories that ubuntu uses by default. packages are in .deb format
[01:44] <Slade> mcw: apt-get will get you packages if you know their names.   tar, gzip, bzip2, zip, and rar
[01:44] <linxeh> mcw: have a look at the synaptic manager, or the command line apt-get / apt-search tools
[01:44] <SilverWolf> Hi, is there a way i can restore the default apache2 configurations files?, when i delete the /etc/apache2 dir and removes/install apache2 package, the configuration is not installed again
[01:44] <hololight> mcw: .deb for pre compiled packages, .tar.gz usually for source
[01:44] <frostbyt3> RequinB4: can you finish helping me, I'm at the part where it wants me to add bcm43xx to the /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist file
[01:44]  * gaile ok guys gtg.. i'll be back if i have some questions that might pop up :) thanks to you both..
[01:44] <Slade> mcw: try the Synaptic Package Manager (System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager)
[01:44] <zz> in 8.04 ubuntu my programs seem to not respond and go grey and are really slow and won't start some of them
[01:45] <linxeh> hololight: or .deb for source :)
[01:45] <RequinB4> frostbyt3: what is the problem
[01:45] <mcw> what do you do with them (how do you open them after you have down loaded them)
[01:45]  * Slade is not a fan of pre-compiled packages. 
[01:45] <zz> I can't even login after I kill gdm/xserver and no sound whatsover
[01:45] <joecurlee> hi all, using ubuntu 8.04... can't get a static wireless connection to my linksys router
[01:45] <joecurlee> any suggestions?
[01:45] <foug> i'm having trouble with ping and traceroute. Ping gives me 100% packet loss, and traceroute doesn't do anything. I've installed the traceroute package
[01:45] <linxeh> mcw: the apt tools install them for you and manage the packages.
[01:46] <Slade> mcw: well, using the graphical way, right click on the app, go to the archive manager and use that
[01:46] <mcw> synaptic package manager
[01:46] <frostbyt3> when im adding a line do i have to put the # sign?
[01:46] <zz> xvzf path
[01:46] <frostbyt3> in gedit
[01:46] <TJ-Linux> I have a .flp floppy drive image and need to get a file from it, but I have no floppy drive to create a floppy on -- how do I mount this as a drive?
[01:46] <Slade> mcw: or, command line ...   tar zxvf file.tar.gz   or   tar jxvf file.tar.bz(2),  or unrar/unzip file.rar or file.zip
[01:46] <joecurlee> i'm using system > administration > network to set a static ip address... can't ping google or anything else
[01:46] <mcw> I already know how to use that but what if a program is zipped tar. ect.....
[01:46] <Esqulax> A bit of donut has gotten jammed between the keys on my keyboard. do i leave it or try to poke it out with a pencil?
[01:47] <zz> Esqulax: buy a new keyboard
[01:47] <joker> how come you can not install a rpm on a Debian sys
[01:47] <linxeh> mcw: if its not on synaptic, then you normally will be building it from source code - ie a .tar.gz
[01:47] <zz> rpm is fedora
[01:47] <quio> Hi Everybody.  Anyone kn ow a good app that can play a section of an mp3 song on repeat?
[01:47] <linxeh> joker: you can
[01:47] <joecurlee> Esqulax: lick it out and put the pics on the internet
[01:47] <wasabi> You can with caveats.
[01:47] <mcw> what do you open it with and what do you unzip it with
[01:47] <s3a> joker: install a package called alien
[01:47] <hololight> joker: you can in some cases.... you need a program called alien
[01:47] <s3a> joker: u can use that to convert a .rpm to a .deb
[01:47] <sajid> I am having a very odd problem: my computer seems to think the "L" key is always pressed, but only in certain contexts. I have <Super>+L mapped to Lock Screen, so If I press <Super> it locks the screen, but it doesn't incessently type "L" in a text box
[01:47] <joker> I tryed rpm -i will not
[01:47] <Slade> joker: because rpm is really built for redhat linux and its sub-distros
[01:47] <sajid> anyone have idea?
[01:47] <linxeh> joker: but normally you dont want to. RPM is for redhat. yuck. .deb is for debian/ubuntu - mmmmmm :
[01:47] <mcw> I don't know how to compile source code yet
[01:48] <linxeh> joker: good. dont install rpms on ubuntu. ubuntu is ubuntu, not fedora
[01:48] <elec> tea.com
[01:48] <Esqulax> source code? gcc
[01:48] <Slade> mcw: What are you trying to install?
[01:48] <mcw> afraid to screw something up
[01:48] <joker> I tryed the Tar file but it will not install
[01:48] <hololight> joker: alien (tries) to turn a rpm into a deb
[01:48] <linxeh> joker: what are you trying to install... ?
[01:48] <joker> Ever tryed to install affix
[01:48] <Esqulax> Screw it up.. s'all part of learning :)
[01:48] <Slade> joker: you need to extract the tar file.    tar zxvf file.tar.gz
[01:48] <quio>  Hi Everybody.  Anyone know a good app that can play a section of an mp3 song on repeat?
[01:48] <zz> on my 8.04 ubuntu my programs run slow and don't start and after i kill xserver (ctrl\alt\backspace) I login but i get my background screen for login manager
[01:48] <joker> I did that part
[01:48] <linxeh> Esqulax: for some people - they reckon 30% of people can't learn from mistakes though due to low levels of dopamine :o
[01:48] <mcw> nothing it's just the only thing I can't figure out in ubuntu
[01:48] <Esqulax> Yep. an ipod
[01:49] <linxeh> joker: what are you trying to install ?
[01:49] <mcw> that and how wine works
[01:49] <greg_universe_> lol
[01:49] <joker> Affix kernel
[01:49] <Esqulax> 60% of stats are made up ;)
[01:49] <HiZaM> wasn't it 80%
[01:49] <bobertdos> quio: You could accomplish that with Audacity.
[01:49] <linxeh> Esqulax: if you are going to quote something, quote it right
[01:49] <hololight> lol
[01:49] <Slade> mcw: well, again. in terminal   type tar zxvf /path/to/file  (ie tar zxvf /home/mcw/myfile.tar.gz)
[01:49] <joker> And I come up with major err
[01:49] <Slade> then, cd /home/mcw/myfile
[01:49] <Slade> then, ./configure && make && make install
[01:49] <Esqulax> Hey.. it was quoted from me. They got it wrong
[01:49] <mcw> what does that do?
[01:49] <joker> brb
[01:49] <mcw> open it
[01:50] <Slade> mcw: extracts, configures, and installs
[01:50] <Esqulax> Wow. IanIan. i know an Ian Ian
[01:50] <mcw> so you have to remember that command
[01:50] <Slade> mcw: give it a week or two..   it'll become second nature :)
[01:50] <linxeh> mcw: that works if the source was designed to be compiled that way. usually there is an INSTALL File in the zip, or instructions on the website
[01:51] <zz> Slade it depends on the program as well, some don't need make install and isnt it sude make install?
[01:51] <mcw> thank you you are nicer than some of these people on here
[01:51] <zz> sde -> sudo
[01:51] <linxeh> zz: depends where the install target deploys to
[01:51] <linxeh> generally NEVER run sudo make anything without reading the Makefile to see what it does
[01:51] <Slade> zz: yeah. i always forget the sudo. I come from a background where i always have root to install :)
[01:51] <dreamzr4u> ﻿hi, this is raj and i have a query regarding ubuntu
[01:51] <linxeh> dreamzr4u: ask away :)
[01:52] <zz> linxeh: my programs run slow and after killing my xserver and logging in i get the background for the login manager
[01:52] <dreamzr4u> grub loading  then error 15
[01:52] <joecurlee> so yea... ubuntu 8.04, static wireless connection to linksys won't work
[01:52] <joecurlee> can't find info on google
[01:52] <mcw> I just want to be able to do anything I can do in windows on linux and it seems like ubuntu is the best distro because I have tried out allot of the other distros
[01:53] <mcw> installed and tried
[01:53] <Slade> mcw: ubuntu is nice.
[01:53] <joecurlee> dhcp wireless works fine
[01:53] <mcw> it seems to have the most support
[01:53] <Slade> mcw: i'd start by searching the web for a beginners course in linux. It'll give you the basics.
[01:53] <Esqulax> mcw: windows will always have a certain amount of muscle, but you can do more with linux
[01:53] <linxeh> joecurlee: I had that problem I think - I think it is to do with the linksys wanting you to use uPNP to register the address, but not sure, DHCP seems to work fine
[01:53] <zz> linxeh: they don't even run, I get a white blank box if i clicked for a terminal, the panals won't respond(pager,trash)
[01:54] <Esqulax> ubuntu is cool cos it pretty much works straight of on my wind :)
[01:54] <mcw> I have a dual boot dual hd system vista and linux ubuntu studio because I am a musician
[01:54] <joecurlee> linxeh thanks
[01:54] <linxeh> joecurlee: that might be a red herring though :o
[01:54] <joecurlee> linxeh looks like that might be the issue looking in to it now
[01:54] <mcw> and an artist
[01:54] <Esqulax> mcw: i found garage band on Leopard (Mac OSX) was awesome for that
[01:55] <linxeh> zz: no idea sorry, I'd check from a console what programs are still running when you log out, maybe either reboot or restart gdm
[01:55] <zz> gdm restart doesnt fix it
[01:55] <mcw> but computers are new to me all that I know is from what people have taught me and from what I have read
[01:55] <linxeh> zz: or stop gdm, kill all lingering X / gnome related processes, and try again
[01:55] <zz> im using finch right now in a virtual tty linxeh
[01:55] <linxeh> mcw: I'm a musician too
[01:56] <SebNaitsabes> mcw: so you hardly have any Windows experience even?
[01:56] <linxeh> zz: I'm not an ubuntu expert, I just use it at home - by day I'm using Redhat enterprise and other unix systems, and just sit here to help where I can, sorry :o
[01:56] <Esqulax> mcw: fair enough. Wehn you get a chance niip into a nearby Apple store and ask to be shown garage band.. once your over the 1st hurdle, its really great
[01:56] <mcw> can I use garage band in linux or windows or do I have to install mac os on an amd or an intell
[01:56] <mcw> ?
[01:56] <linxeh> mcw: garageband is osx only, and you can only run it on macs (legally)
[01:56] <zz> linxeh: but it is constant, i think Gnea helped my usb problems though, might as well edit my grub
[01:56] <linxeh> there is ardour for linux though
[01:57] <mcw> no I have about 4 years windows experience and 1 year linux
[01:57] <zz> :-P
[01:57] <evild_> The trash icon used to be in the bottom right hand corner of my screen in Ubuntu. I accidentally removed it and dont know how to get it back there. Can anyone help?
[01:57] <xinnix> you could probaly run it inside a VM OSX
[01:57] <xinnix> as well
[01:57] <linxeh> xinnix: not legally
[01:57] <zz> evild_: right click and add aplet as trash i beleif
[01:57] <Esqulax> If your systems up to it
[01:57] <mcw> but I just took an a+ course wich helped a little bit
[01:57] <hololight> mcw: as a general rule, mac apps will only work on a mac, and it takes serious skill and a lot of time to get mac osx to run on a non-mac (I scragged a hd trying)
[01:58] <SebNaitsabes> mcw: you can run Windows inside a virtual machine inside Linux if there is a good reason. say, because of some program that won't work in Wine
[01:58] <KRF> linxeh, thats not legal?
[01:58] <solexious> [Q] Not all programs use the usb device set in system->prefs-> sound.   Any ideas?
[01:58] <evild_> right click where?
[01:58] <dreamzr4u> hey guys i am getting an "grub loading plaease wait error 15 "
[01:58] <linxeh> KRF: well, not if you beleive in the legality of EULAs
[01:58] <KRF> linxeh, windows either?
[01:58] <xinnix> legal...lol
[01:58] <xinnix> *legall
[01:58] <linxeh> KRF: running windows in a VM is fine
[01:58] <crimsun> solexious: because that setting only affects GStreamer-based applications.  It doesn't actually set the default audio device for non-GSt-based apps.
[01:58] <KRF> okay...
[01:59] <mcw> I don't really understand vm ware yet I understand how it works in theory but have never used it yet is it free?
[01:59] <hololight> xinnix: what is this "legal" you speak of?
[01:59] <zz> evild_: down where trash used to be
[01:59] <KRF> mcw, yes
[01:59] <KRF> !virtualbox
[01:59] <xinnix> nothing i just understand
[01:59] <mcw> cool
[01:59] <KRF> mcw ^
[01:59] <xinnix> =)
[01:59] <linxeh> KRF: apple dont want you to run OSX in a VM or on non-Apple hardware. which is fair enough - they dont want the support headaches.
[01:59] <Esqulax> legal.. its a word that closed source corporate fatcats use
[01:59] <zz> !emu
[01:59] <KRF> linxeh, hah. true
[01:59] <zz> !qemu
[01:59] <xinnix> lol is it really
[01:59] <KRF> !emo
[01:59] <evild_> it dosent give me that option zz
[01:59] <mcw> is that a link?
[01:59] <dreamzr4u> Hi, I am getting an error message "error 15"
[01:59] <SebNaitsabes> !virtualbox
[01:59] <xinnix> iam not really good with linux
[01:59] <crimsun> solexious: to do that, you need to use an asoundrc and restart all audio apps, e.g., see the asoundconf utility that Ubuntu includes.
[01:59] <xinnix> still trying to get use the command line
[01:59] <SebNaitsabes> !vbox
[02:00] <Nikkolai> You will be fine.
[02:00] <zz> evild_: i would help you but my gnome seems to be locking up lol
[02:00] <xinnix> been on windows too long and decided i would swtich it, VMs help alot
[02:00] <zz> something in taking over my computer
[02:00] <solexious> crimsun, just hit asoundconf in shell?
[02:00] <linxeh> Esqulax: its a word that civilised society uses to denote something that is unacceptable to the population as a whole :P
[02:00] <evild_> lol :\
[02:00] <KRF> mcw, try https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VirtualBox - its easy to setup imo
[02:00] <evild_> i guess its not all that big of a deal i just go to places/home folder and there trash is
[02:00] <mcw> I relly like linux though the fact that it doesn't get viruses and all that
[02:00] <frostbyt3> can someone help me with this...http://invaleed.wordpress.com/2007/11/20/install-bcm94311mcg-wlan-mini-pci-ubuntu-710/    I'm on step 2 and I can't save the file b/c it says I dont have the permissions, but I think I do
[02:00] <xinnix> iam still trying to figure out how to change user from root in a shell and switch to a new one
[02:01] <linxeh> mcw: it will get viruses at some point
[02:01] <duiu> Is there a way to use anacron or cron so that something runs after something else finishes?
[02:01] <crimsun> solexious: a bit more involved than that, but yes, essentially that's the workflow.
[02:01] <xinnix> i love linux
[02:01] <SebNaitsabes> mcw:  Linux is not immune to viruses
[02:01] <mcw> that's vm ware running in linux?
[02:01] <SebNaitsabes> mcw: just as of right now hardly any viruses will work on a modern Linux
[02:01] <KRF> mcw, nearly.
[02:01] <solexious> crimsun, okies doie, will google
[02:01] <solexious> crimsun, ty
[02:01] <xinnix> did i mention I LOVE LINUX
[02:01] <KRF> if you're familar with vmware, use that
[02:01] <mcw> or windows or mac os running i vm ware on linux?
[02:01] <xinnix> especially the bactrack distro's
[02:01] <Dr_willis> linux is a very 'harsh' enviroment for a  virus to live in. :)
[02:01] <xinnix> running it on windows
[02:02] <SebNaitsabes> mcw: you cannot just run Mac OS X on a PC it is not like the others
[02:02] <zz> hey Dr_willis
[02:02] <xinnix> VMing the linux enviornments
[02:02] <thenetduck> how can I check to see if I am running a 64 bit operating system in my live session?
[02:02] <Dr_willis> zz,  hay.
[02:02] <thenetduck> is there a terminal command that can tell me?
[02:02] <mcw> ok
[02:02] <SebNaitsabes> mcw:  it is possible to get Mac OS X running on a PC, but that is more complacated
[02:02] <zz> thenetduck: uname -a
[02:02] <hololight> one thing to remember about vm's though, they do not 'emulate' 3d accelerators
[02:02] <frostbyt3> can someone help me with this...http://invaleed.wordpress.com/2007/11/20/install-bcm94311mcg-wlan-mini-pci-ubuntu-710/    I'm on step 2 and I can't save the file b/c it says I dont have the permissions, but I think I do
[02:02] <dreamzr4u> hey ppl .. does anyone know abt the error 15 while loading grub?
[02:02] <SebNaitsabes> mcw: and then it probably won't run as good as on real Mac hardware
[02:02] <linxeh> Dr_willis: not really - it would be easy to code something up that ran gksudo and ask for the users password, and most users that get viruses on Windows would be just as vulnerable...
[02:02] <Dr_willis> hololight,  vmware and virtualbox i hear are 'working' on that.
[02:02] <thenetduck> zz: thank you
[02:02] <zz> Dr_willis: gnome seems to be locking up
[02:02] <KRF> dreamzr4u, can have various reasons
[02:02] <KRF> !grub
[02:03] <zz> thenetduck: did that work? it shows kernel information
[02:03] <KRF> dreamzr4u, try to read through that or google your error
[02:03] <mcw> I haven't even figured out how to use all the paackages or programs on ubuntu studio yet
[02:03] <dreamzr4u> KRF : i had installed 6.06 on a old dell and after rebooting it gives that msg
[02:03] <Dr_willis> linxeh,   then we start getting into the argument of a 'virus' vs a 'trojan' and so forth. we had a huge discussion/flamefest of this the other week in here. :) so i aint even going to start.
[02:03] <mcw> but I'm an awsome guitarist
[02:03] <KRF> dreamzr4u, thats pretty old, tho
[02:03] <dreamzr4u> KRF,I went thru google and it asks me to use a grub boot disk
[02:03] <xinnix> bye everyone bbl
[02:03] <Dr_willis> linxeh,  the weakest link - will always be the end user. :)
[02:03]  * Pelo always shows up to seem the most obscure comments 
[02:03] <mcw> and can play bass and drums and keyboards too
[02:04] <dreamzr4u> KRF, i have 7.10 and 8.04 but it is not getting recognized by the dell :(
[02:04] <KRF> dreamzr4u, i'd suggest to upgrade anyway
[02:04] <KRF> oh
[02:04] <SebNaitsabes> mcw:  and you can get a lot of Windows programs working well on Linux with Wine
[02:04] <KRF> dunno then, grub is a beast
[02:04] <SebNaitsabes> mcw:  a WIndows virtual machine should be a last resort :)
[02:04] <Pelo> anyone know of a series of test images to setup a monitor's light contrast and colours properly ?
[02:04] <dreamzr4u> KRF, my HP has 8.04 and it is cool
[02:04] <dreamzr4u> but thedell is giving probs
[02:04] <adakos> howdy folks. does anyone know of a good way to batch encode DVDs? im looking to turn my entire movie collection into a digital archive. I've got 100 movies and ive been ripping them to my hardddrive over the past week, so now ive got close to 4TiB of dvd images ... looking for a batch command =)
[02:05] <linxeh> Dr_willis: yep. ok, no reason a virus cant live in userspace, or exploit some dodgy daemon - its not immune, but the risks are less than on windows granted :)
[02:05] <ganymede> hello, does anyone if ubuntu stays up to date with the newest fglrx? the fglrx package for hardy seems to be 8.3, which gives me a lot of diagonal tearing problems. is there a easy way to install a newer version with the package manager, or must i do it manually?
[02:05] <evild_> Anyone know of a good keylogger for Ubuntu?
[02:05] <linxeh> evild_: ouch.
[02:05] <thenetduck> zz: yes, it worked perfectly
[02:05] <zz> yay I helped someone!
[02:05] <dreamzr4u> any ideas on how i make a grub boot disk using a usb stick?
[02:05] <SebNaitsabes> !grub
[02:05] <thenetduck> zz: I am having a problem though. I am trying to delete my old ubuntu partition with partition editor but it doesn't seem to work
[02:06] <zz> thenetduck: doesnt seem to work how?
[02:06]  * SebNaitsabes what happended to the mods in this channel?
[02:06] <mcw> I'd rather a dual boot untill I understand better
[02:06] <thenetduck> zz: It tells me : Please unmount any logical partitions having a number higher than ..... when I try to delete it
[02:06] <Flannel> SebNaitsabes: eh?
[02:06] <Dr_willis> linxeh,  then ya got the argument ' if the virus is expliting a bug in some service' is it actually a 'linux virus' :)    but theres tons of threads/flamefests on this topic. some actually have some good info. most dont. :)
[02:06] <frostbyt3> thenetduck: are you running vista
[02:06] <mcw> that way I['m not stuck with either
[02:06] <frostbyt3> can someone help me with this...http://invaleed.wordpress.com/2007/11/20/install-bcm94311mcg-wlan-mini-pci-ubuntu-710/    I'm on step 2 and I can't save the file b/c it says I dont have the permissions, but I think I do
[02:06] <SebNaitsabes> Flannel: there you are :D  I think your a mod yes
[02:06] <thenetduck> frostbyt3: my first partition is vista yes
[02:06] <mcw> yes
[02:07] <mcw> vista is new to me as well
[02:07] <zz> mcw: i have a dual boot with windows as not my first hardrive, but physically it is, i don't boot off of the primary
[02:07] <arcos> i need help connecting to a wireless printer on my wifi network, how do you do it?
[02:07] <SebNaitsabes> Flannel: where's jack sparrow and people like that?
[02:07] <Bruners> What is the recommended partition size for ubuntu?
[02:07] <zz> mcw: took me a week to figure out how to fix grub
[02:08] <Flannel> Bruners: you need at least 2.1G + space for personal files
[02:08] <mcw> I choose my boot from the boot menu f8
[02:08] <frostbyt3> thenetduck: go here: http://vista.blorge.com/2008/02/22/how-to-dual-boot-vista-with-ubuntu/ and just delete, and re allocate it
[02:08] <Flannel> Bruners: I think 4G is the "recommended" minimum
[02:08] <thenetduck> thank you
[02:08] <frostbyt3> yep
[02:08] <zz> mcw: I choose it froma nice splash-screened grub menu :-D
[02:08] <mcw> I wouldn't know how to fix a grub I would just reinstall
[02:08] <mralexandro> can i create a shortcut to a folder on my windows disk on the ubuntu desktop?
[02:09] <zz> Dr_willis: any ideas where to start with my gnome locking up problem?
[02:09] <Flannel> SebNaitsabes: Around.  Always watching...
[02:09] <adakos> can anyone tell me how to batch convert dvd images to divx/xvid? (im trying to get my video library to my harddrive) or even where to start looking?
[02:09] <mcw> same hard drive or dual boot on the same hard drive
[02:09] <dreamzr4u> "secondary hard disk drive 0 not found " any ideas folks?
[02:09] <SebNaitsabes> Flannel: oh right ok
[02:09] <Uplink> what application do i need to start programing in C/C++? im a beginner
[02:09] <Bruners> Flannel: thanks
[02:09] <SebNaitsabes> Uplink: Dev C++  is good
[02:09] <th0r> adakos, mount the iso images using fuseiso then rip them using acidrip
[02:09] <zz> mcw: triple boot on three different hardrives, two constant systems and an extra smaller hd to experiment
[02:09] <zelrikriando> Uplink, emacs
[02:09] <mcw> I have two hard drives and two computers and a kvm switch as well confusing?
[02:09] <^Someone^> I've installed sqlite3 on Ubuntu 8.04.1 Hardy using .deb packages, but when I try to install SQLite ODBC Driver ( http://www.ch-werner.de/sqliteodbc/ ) it says sqlite could not be found
[02:10] <frostbyt3>  can someone help me add a line to a file in gedit
[02:10] <mcw> cool!!!
[02:10] <^Someone^> And indeed, I can't find any sqlite .h files anywhere
[02:10] <zz> mcw: i use a kvm as well, but i am taking this one with me. the other two are staying home
[02:10] <Uplink> SebNaitsabes, Dev C++? isnt that for windows?
[02:10] <zelrikriando> SebNaitsabes, what s Dev C++ ?
[02:10] <arcos> can someone help me with printer issues
[02:10] <Uplink> zelrikriando, emacs is for C and C++?
[02:10] <Flannel> Uplink: As far as IDEs go, check out anjuta, or eclipse (with cdt)
[02:10] <SebNaitsabes> Uplink:   what I am thinking of I think runs on Linux as well
[02:10] <Wizard2694> can someone tell walk me through mounting my external hdd drive
[02:10] <Wizard2694> its usb 2.0
[02:10] <adakos> thOr/th0r:  i have close to 100 images. is that the easiest way ?
[02:10] <mcw> I tried that with three hard drives windows, vista, and ubuntu
[02:10] <Wizard2694> ntfs format
[02:10] <zelrikriando> Uplink, emacs is just a text editor :p
[02:11] <SebNaitsabes> Uplink:  open up syanpatic package manager and search for C++  or look under programming that's an idea
[02:11] <th0r> adakos, I don't know of any other
[02:11] <zelrikriando> Uplink, but that's all you need right? :p
[02:11] <Uplink> ok thank you
[02:11] <zz> mcw: i still didnt get rid of the windows bootloader
[02:11] <Uplink> a compiler... isnt it? i wanna start learning how to program in C/C++
[02:11] <adakos> thOr/th0r:  fair enough, thanks. ill look into it :)
[02:11] <Wizard2694> can anyone help me out?
[02:11] <ilembitov> Hi, all. I have a question. I want to have fresher apps than those currently in 8.04 but don't want to use Intrepid repos. And getdeb.net isn't fresh enough either. Is there any repo with newer apps? Not things like toolchain. But I want Banshee 1.2.1, Transmission 1.32, Pidgin 2.5.0 and so on
[02:11] <baba_b00ie> when i installed ubuntu 8.04 i had hdb1 as ex3 now i formatted it to fat32. how do i reflect those changes for automount during boot
[02:11] <carandraug> Wizard2694, fisrt make a directory to mount the hd
[02:11] <Flannel> Uplink: Indeed, you'll need a compiler.  install build-essential, and you'll have the compiler and stuff.
[02:11] <mcw> but the windows was a 10 gig that was old and started to make clicking noises so I got rid of it!!
[02:11]  * Slade wonders how many workspaces his computer can support :)
[02:12] <hololight> uplink: I really recommend using a text editor to begin with and use g++ from the cli to compile
[02:12] <Flannel> ilembitov: No
[02:12] <carandraug> Wizard2694, yes
[02:12] <titanhoss> so, is atheros wifi working for 64 bit yet?
[02:12] <th0r> adakos, why rip them if they are already iso files? just mount them with fuseiso and watch them
[02:12]  * zz cheers Slade on, GO GO GO GO!!!
[02:12] <SebNaitsabes> ilembitov: no don't think so, but if  you  do  for example the winheq.org for wine you will at least always have the latest Wine for Ubuntu
[02:12] <^Someone^> Repeat: I've installed sqlite3 on Ubuntu 8.04.1 Hardy using .deb packages, but when I try to install SQLite ODBC Driver ( http://www.ch-werner.de/sqliteodbc/ ) it says sqlite could not be found
[02:12] <Flannel> ilembitov: Well, the apps might have repos for themselves, winehq keeps a wine repo for instance.
[02:12] <linxeh> Uplink: you need to install gcc and g++ (probably build-essential) and some kind of editor. you might want to look at an IDE later on once you know how things work - try joining #C++ or similar
[02:12] <Uplink> Flannel, i have build-essential... but i dont see it where to open it
[02:12] <Slade> zz: nah, im too lazy. 4 workspaces is enough for me
[02:12] <zz> I am sick of having to basicly shut down my system everytime gnome locks up
[02:12] <adakos> thOr/th0r:  they are taking up most of my serverspace. i have around 100 iso's and they are between 3.6~5.6 GiB each
[02:12] <Flannel> Uplink: you don't open it, compilers are command line things.  Which is why you probably want an IDE
[02:13] <carandraug> Wizard2694, create a directory to mount it, for example mkdir /media/drive/
[02:13] <mcw> I understand what things are but I don't always know how to use them or how to get there
[02:13] <ilembitov> Damn. I wish Ubuntu backports were more active...
[02:13] <Uplink> !ide
[02:13] <Uplink> uhhh :S
[02:13] <Uplink> what is IDE?
[02:13] <linxeh> Uplink: integrated development environment. you dont want it yet
[02:13] <Flannel> Uplink: anjuta or eclipse (with -cdt)
[02:13] <th0r> adakos, agreed. I have converted many of mine to avi files for the same reason. But I don't know an easy or batch method
[02:13] <SebNaitsabes> ilembitov: I belive Fedora Core is more on the cutting edge when it comes to new programs then Ubuntu is
[02:13] <linxeh> Flannel: not yet :/ he's new. he needs to know how things work first
[02:13] <Uplink> ok let me google all this programs ty
[02:13] <Wizard2694> where do i do that from?
[02:13] <adakos> thOr/th0r:  i just moved into an apartment with 5 other guys, and they are slobs. I want to put my movies up on my server so they can watch them over the network, and keep their grubby hands off my collection!
[02:13]  * zz throws an IDE cable at linxeh
[02:13] <zelrikriando> Uplink, emacs and a compiler and a good C++ book is all you need for now...really
[02:14] <linxeh> Uplink: do not use eclise or anjuta yet imo - lots of black magic will happen otherwise
[02:14] <Uplink> so Flannel, what exactly do i need? im about to start learning C/C++
[02:14] <linxeh> gedit and a compiler will do for now
[02:14] <ilembitov> SebNaisabes: Yes, I know. That's why I prefer Fedora more. But they make the toolchain bleeding-edge, too, which isn't nice
[02:14] <Wizard2694> ok
[02:14] <linxeh> and a terminal
[02:14] <zelrikriando> linxeh, gedit sucks
[02:14] <Flannel> Uplink: Suggest you move the conversation to #ubuntu-offtopic, its sort of half out of scope of this channel
[02:14] <titanhoss> ahh, too busy I guess.
[02:14] <SebNaitsabes> ilembitov: and the Ubuntu repos are based on Debian as a result a lot of stuff is weill behind
[02:14]  * zz throws a pythong interpretor at linxeh
[02:14] <linxeh> zelrikriando: I'm an emacs fan too. lets not get into emacs with beginners either...
[02:14] <Uplink> sorry its just that a lot of ppl recommending different applications... im quite confused which one to use
[02:14] <carandraug> Wizard2694, if your problem is because when you try to mount it automatically it complains and says to force it, it's because you didn't removed it properly from Windows
[02:14] <hololight> uplink: (i am sure i will get yelled at for this...) and ide has a lot of shortcuts and other things to make a developers life easier. you should likely be working from scratch if you are just beginning
[02:14] <frostbyt3> flannel: thank you no ones helping
[02:15] <baba_b00ie> when i installed ubuntu 8.04 i had hdb1 as ex3 now i formatted it to fat32. how do i reflect those changes for automount during boot
[02:15] <biouser> http://www.songtrellis.com/sounds/viewer$3919  can someone please tell me what is going on with this media?
[02:15] <zz> is anyone having trouble with gnome locking up and no programs working properly ie they all turn grey
[02:15] <Wizard2694> that is when i turn it on
[02:15] <zelrikriando> linxeh, I stick with nedit for some reason, I really hate gedit
[02:15] <Wizard2694> how do i remove it first
[02:15] <SebNaitsabes> ilembitov: you could probably use the Debian repo in Ubuntu and get later versions of programs like that, but some may not work on Ubuntu or cause problems
[02:15] <Wizard2694> im too used to windows and trying to understand this now
[02:15] <ilembitov> SebNaitsabes: Debian is nice in this terms, but it won't really get updated until Lenny, it's all Frozen until September
[02:15] <Flannel> Uplink: /join #ubuntu-offtopic and we'll help
[02:15] <Wizard2694> it just says unable to mount
[02:15] <hololight> uplink: the default text editor you recieved with ubuntu will do syntax highlighting for c++, then you can compile from the command line
[02:15] <adakos> I have a command-line program, i want to pass the same parameters to a whole bunch of files, what's the easist way to do a batch command? (i know in winxp i could make a *.bat file) -- is there something similar for linux ?
[02:16] <^Someone^> Repeat: I've installed sqlite3 on Ubuntu 8.04.1 Hardy using .deb packages, but when I try to install SQLite ODBC Driver ( http://www.ch-werner.de/sqliteodbc/ ) it says sqlite could not be found
[02:16] <SebNaitsabes> ilembitov: that's the stable I guess not the one they keep on updating?
[02:16] <Uplink> hololight, ok? i'll try that :|
[02:16] <biouser> it is .mid
[02:16] <ozpowermo> Hi all, nautilus is not starting up automatically when I boot up ubuntu (hardy amd64)... does anybody know how I can reinstall nautilus and/or make it start automatically on boot up?
[02:16] <biouser> how can I play a .mid file with ubuntu?  I would have thought that would be auto
[02:16] <th0r> adakos, you would write a script...check the web for tutorials on bash scripting
[02:16] <ilembitov> SebNaitsabes: They freeze testing some time before stable release. unstable doesn't get too much updated, too
[02:16] <adakos> thOr/th0r:  will do. thanks
[02:16] <carandraug> Wizard2694, in windows? I believe there's an icon in the system tray. Left click there and choose to safely remove. If you don't do that, you'll have problems mounting it in Linux. You can however use the command that appears to force mount. I've done it before without losing any data but I won't take responsabilities if you do
[02:17] <th0r> adakos, there is also a Advanced Bash Scripting guide...check the linux documentation project
[02:17] <SebNaitsabes> ilembitov: well can alwasy get later versions of apps from the website?  ok sure you may have to compile them your self, but so be it
[02:17] <mcw> how do you use wine I know how to install it but not what to do next
[02:17] <Wizard2694> well i never had to remove it correctly with windows, so what you are saying it turn it on, then do a correct removal in windows and it should work?
[02:17] <Wizard2694> ?
[02:18] <zelrikriando> mcw, you might wanna join #winehq
[02:18] <ilembitov> SebNaitsabes: Yeah, yeah. I know all of it. Actually, I was just hoping there is some workaorund for what I consider the biggest (and probably only) Ubuntu's flaw IMHO
[02:18] <mcw> what is that?
[02:18] <SebNaitsabes> mcw: then go to your applications menu and at the bottom it should have wine.  and look through that
[02:18] <biouser> http://www.freehandmusic.com/ProductDetail.aspx?ProdID=270673

[02:19] <titanhoss> <-- just wants to get wireless working on his HP.. so he's not tied to the end of a 15 meter cat 5
[02:19] <Wizard2694> is that correct cara?
[02:19] <carandraug> Wizard2694, yes. Next time you should do it (that's the correct way of removing it). Or you can try to force mount. Like I said, I've done it previously several times with no problems but...
[02:19] <linxeh> battaglin: export LANG=en_US.utf-8
[02:19] <mcw> i have it installed I just don't know what do do next????
[02:19] <zelrikriando> mcw, that's the wine support channel , just do /join #winehq
[02:19] <zz> I am sick of needing to shutdown everything when gnome locks up
[02:19] <Wizard2694> how do i do a force mount?
[02:19] <mdg> rnhello
[02:19] <mcw> how do you change channels from this one?
[02:19] <battaglin> linxeh:  in terminal?  thnx
[02:19] <Wizard2694> so i know how to do it?

[02:20] <carandraug> Wizard2694, when it said that it couldn't mount, didn't it had an option to get more details? It showns the command to use there

[02:21] <uoaphys> ﻿hi guys, from ubuntu 8.04, do I need to add a sources ection to get 4.1? Or can I just do kubuntu-kde4-desktop and then go?
[02:21] <SebNaitsabes> !html
[02:21] <Dr_willis> TubbyCat12,  gotta love contradictions in  features. :)
[02:21] <biouser> vim not simple though
[02:21] <adakos> mcw: ditto. i thought this was my ssh prompt earlier. but to pretend this is on-topic, are you running gnome?
[02:22] <TubbyCat12> xD
[02:22] <Flannel> uoaphys: Nope, just regular repos
[02:22] <Dr_willis> I find vim simple. :) you just have to learn it.
[02:22] <mcw> yes

[02:22] <mcw> installed from iso download
[02:22] <titanhoss> well, off to try the forums over chat scroll.
[02:22] <TubbyCat12> thanks
[02:22] <Flannel> uoaphys: You shouldn't need PPA for KDE4.  But I suppose there might be updatd versions.  Ask in #kubuntu-kde4, they'll know for sure.

[02:27] <mcw> I know I am talking to you now on ubuntu server but I don't know how to go anywhere else??
[02:27] <Dr_willis> carandraug,  hes using the old ubuntu befor pidgin - from what i read.
[02:27] <^Someone^> Someome please help : \ I've installed sqlite3 on Ubuntu 8.04.1 Hardy using .deb packages, but when I try to install SQLite ODBC Driver ( http://www.ch-werner.de/sqliteodbc/ ) it says sqlite could not be found
[02:27] <Dr_willis> mcw,  add a new server, or select one from the xchat > network list menu.. or use the /server command
[02:27] <ozpowermo> ﻿Hi all, nautilus is not starting up automatically when I boot up ubuntu (hardy amd64)... does anybody know how I can reinstall nautilus and/or make it start automatically on boot up?
[02:27] <jegan> ya but i hav as gaim in my ubuntu
[02:27] <baba_b00ie> how do i configure ubuntu 8.04 to boot without the splash screen and not to go straight in to X11
[02:27] <carandraug> Dr_willis, hmm, ok. But the interface should be similiar, I hope
[02:27] <mcw> 8.04.1
[02:28] <mcw> witch one of those options?
[02:28] <DDR> mcw: type /join #channelNameHere
[02:28] <mcw> irc?
[02:28] <Dr_willis> carandraug,  features may not be.  I have neer used eitehr to do google chat.. so no idea if the old one can even do googlechat or not.
[02:28] <mcw>  in this same box I am typing in?
[02:28] <Dr_willis> mcw,  it may be worth wile to just explore the menu items a bit.  depending on EXACTLY what you want to do.
[02:28] <carandraug> jegan, I use Pidgin but the interface should be similiar. Is there a menu named accounts with and add/edit option? Go there
[02:29] <Dr_willis> mcw,  /server irc.newircserver.com  will connect to a new/different irc server.  There is a server 'settings/interface' area in the xchat settings. Note that this is in XCHAT, not 'xchat-gnome' the 2 differ in the layout a lot.
[02:29] <mcw> is it network, and then channels?
[02:29] <Fungusman> Hi guys I want a stripped down windows client
[02:29] <carandraug> jegan, also, ever thought of updating to pidgin?
[02:29] <Fungusman> xfce doesnt seem to be very stripped down
[02:29] <mcw> that seems to make sence
[02:30] <Fungusman> I was wondering what ubuntu room can suggest
[02:30] <Dr_willis> Fungusman,  xfce is very minimal. yet full featured.
[02:30] <jegan> ya i went there and saw ... it displays all protocols except google !!
[02:30] <qr> Fungusman: try ion3, you don't get more stripped down then that
[02:30] <Fungusman> What is puppy linux using ?
[02:30] <Dr_willis> Fungusman,  depends on exactly what you want. as far as a 'full desktop' xfce is about as light as they get.
[02:30] <Fungusman> how would I install ion3 ?
[02:30] <qr> jegan: googletalk uses jabber
[02:30] <Flannel> Fungusman: try fluxbox
[02:30] <Fungusman> Thanks for the help guise
[02:30] <Dr_willis> Fungusman,  puppy uses jwm + rox file manager.
[02:30] <favro> Fungusman: I think fluxbox is good :)
[02:30] <mcw> I am in xchat gnome
[02:30] <qr> Fungusman: apt-get install ion3
[02:30] <mcw> irc
[02:30] <Dr_willis> Fungusman,  thats what im using now in Ubuntu. :)
[02:30] <Leefmc> Question: I am attempting to make/install a library but i get an error saying i do not have a high enough glib version, it requires 2.12.0 or greater. If i search for glib in the packagemanager however, it says i have libglib2.0-0 version 2.16.4 installed, any thoughts as to what could be wrong?
[02:30] <mcw> me too
[02:30] <Fungusman> I love puppy it rocks
[02:31] <Fungusman> ok Im gonna try ion3
[02:31] <dumbdum> I used GParted to copy my Mint linux Install to a bigger HDD, now it wont boot! Any help appreciated.
[02:31] <Dr_willis> Fungusman,  you may want to check out 'icewm' and set it up to use 'rox' also.
[02:31] <mcw> is that speedy (puppy)
[02:31] <karname> please help me : I have dell inspiron 6400 laptob , when i set turning the lcd off after minutes , my ubuntu is crash, mean all of key is disable , this problem is also when i turn computer to stand by
[02:31] <carandraug> Fungusman, ever tried Iwm? You can't go more stripped down than that
[02:31] <Dr_willis> Fungusman,  some of these uber-light window managers are VERY 'odd' in ways.
[02:31] <Fungusman> ok
[02:31] <Fungusman> For some reason my new laptp can get sluggish with ubuntu
[02:32] <Fungusman> been daul booting xp and notice that xp is less slugish (but more on the fritz lol)
[02:32] <qr> Fungusman: you can also try wmii (which is my personal wm of choice) but it's a very /different/ sort of wm if you are used to XP.
[02:32] <Dr_willis> Fungusman,  right now i normally run 'icewm' and 'rox -p=default' to get the rox pinboard. :)
[02:32] <mcw> I take it you like mushrooms fungusman!!
[02:32] <carandraug> Fungusman, if it's new, the reason is probably not an heavy window manager
[02:32] <mcw> either that or you live in a moldy house
[02:33] <Fungusman> lol
[02:33] <Fungusman> fungusman is a dnd monster : )
[02:33] <mcw> oh ok
[02:33] <ozpowermo> Anybody know how to start nautilus at boot? Mine is not starting up when ubuntu boots... I have to manually start it! Anybody? Please?
[02:33] <Fungusman> lol talking dnd in the linux room ohhhh jeezz
[02:33] <jegan> i cold not connect to my google /// wen i enter my username and pass ...  in jabber
[02:33] <Fungusman> lol
[02:33] <mcw> I don't play dnd
[02:33] <linxeh> Fungusman: ooh, twm ftw ;-)
[02:33] <Fungusman> gonna try wmii
[02:33] <Fungusman> lol
[02:33] <adakos> ooh thats what i need!! anyone know where i can find a good network monitoring program that can tell me current bandwidth usage, total sent/received, used over 24 hrs, etc.. but the catch is it has to be web-based or terminal based since i run a headless server.
[02:33] <SNuxoll> real men use windowmaker as their wm
[02:34] <Pulpie> SNuxoll: real men use bsd
[02:34] <Dr_willis> adakos,  theres ntop ( i think) that logs more info then i EVER knew existed
[02:34] <linxeh> Pulpie: real men use unicos
[02:34] <Dr_willis> !info ntop
[02:34] <qr> jegan: google (heh) for how to do it.  How you connect to googletalk through gaim is not at all obvious, but there are many, many walkthroughs on line.
[02:34] <mcw> I've had some good trips on shrooms
[02:34] <Fungusman> Dr Willis, how would I install a manager like puppy ?
[02:34] <Dr_willis> adakos,  it dosent really do it like 'top' does. it has a html/web interface
[02:34] <Fungusman> Im still new with ubuntu
[02:34] <SNuxoll> Pulpie: damn straight!
[02:34] <sivel_> hello all.
[02:34] <mcw> me too
[02:34] <zelrikriando> Fungusman, need help?
[02:35] <Pulpie> linxeh: no UNICOS sucks
[02:35] <mcw> tried sabayon and it sucked
[02:35] <carandraug> !hi | sivel_
[02:35] <Dr_willis> Fungusman,  Puppy is using 'jwm' and the 'rox' file manager.. use the package manager, search for jwm and rox-filer (i think) and install those
[02:35] <sivel_> ty
[02:35] <linxeh> Pulpie: but there isnt much choice for real men ;-)
[02:35] <Dr_willis> Fungusman,  you will need to configure jwm to run rox at startup. (and tweak its menus)
[02:35] <dasunsrule32> B-)
[02:35] <Fungusman> k
[02:35] <sivel_> im about to pull my hair out over this network problem that just "happened" when everything was running smoothly for 3 months....
[02:35] <Fungusman> brb
[02:35] <mcw> tried mandriva
[02:36] <mcw> tried open suse
[02:36] <Pulpie> linxeh: lol
[02:36] <adakos> Dr_willis ill try that
[02:36] <mcw> tried musix
[02:36] <Dr_willis> Fungusman,  and yes.. ive spend many an hr reading the jwm docs. and learning how to tweak the .jwmrc config file and themes. :)
[02:36] <Slade> mcw: my apologies for mandriva and open suse
[02:36] <mcw> ha ha
[02:36] <mcw> no real support
[02:36] <adakos> Dr_willis do i need to install apache?
[02:36] <mcw> no updates
[02:36] <Slade> mcw: open suse = novell. novell = lousy support.
[02:36] <Pascal[Quebec]> Hi
[02:36] <Pici> mcw: Do you have a support question?
[02:37] <sivel_> all of the sudden, my eth0 device does not exist, yet it seems to be getting a ip from my router, yet cant ping the router
[02:37] <Dr_willis> adakos,  no idea. I just toyed with ntop for a while ages ago.. and resized it was 10000x more features then what i needed. :)
[02:37] <Pascal[Quebec]> Prob with amsn... version 0.97.2 .
[02:37] <kevin083> hi... when i boot i see 22.352830] ata1.00: limited to UDMA/33 due to 40-wire cable... is this referring to the cd-rom drive or the hard disk?
[02:37] <Pulpie> Pascal[Quebec]: centerim
[02:37] <mcw> i want to learn more so I can help as many people as I can get off of winblows!
[02:37] <kauer> Hi there. I need a kind of "virtual cable" I can sniff. I have an ssh tunnel from my computer to a server, but I need to see what's going over the tunnel. I want to set up a local "hop" on my computer that I can inspect with (say) wireshark.  Ideas?
[02:37] <adakos> Dr_willis perfect! i like features
[02:37] <mcw> no
[02:37] <Pascal[Quebec]> unable to get a socket form localhost
[02:37] <mcw> I did
[02:38] <mcw> but I still don't understand wine????!!!!
[02:38] <Pulpie> Pascal[Quebec]: take it up in #amsn
[02:38] <mcw> is automatix the same thing?
[02:38] <Flannel> mcw: Don't use automatix.  Do not.
[02:38] <dumbdum> I used GParted to copy my Mint linux Install to a bigger HDD, now it wont boot! Any help appreciated.
[02:38] <mcw> or is it discontinued
[02:38] <Flannel> !wine | mcw
[02:38] <sivel_> any ideas as to where i can start? it was working flawlessly for months, no prob
[02:38] <Flannel> mcw: Automatix isn't supported, and it's not needed either. there's nothing that it will help you with.
[02:39] <Pici> dumbdum: You'd need to contact Mint for support then, we do not support that here.
[02:39] <Flannel> mcw: (isn't supported means we don't support it, and neither do the people who wrote it)
[02:39] <Pici> !mintsupport | dumbdum
[02:39] <ozpowermo> Does anybody know how to re-install nautilus on ubuntu hardy amd 64?
[02:39] <mcw> isn't it easier for you to explain how it works to me?
[02:39] <os2mac> Is there a way to create a short cut key sequence for a particular application?
[02:39] <Flannel> mcw: Explain what?
[02:39] <sysdoc> When you run ps aux VSZ and RSS are displayed, is the RSS value included in the VSZ value?
[02:39] <mcw> we need to do this more to get people off of windows
[02:39] <Pascal[Quebec]> unable to get a socket from localhost. Cheak your /etc/hosts file, please. Be sure to have net loopback up.
[02:40] <scribawf> Any workaround for a "BRICK" all-in-1 Lexmark X3430 to work with Linux/Ubuntu?
[02:40] <mcw> not tell people were links or explanations are but explain to people directly
[02:40] <mcw> that's why some people are turned off
[02:40] <sk33t0r> anyone here use an ati x300 and run any games under ubuntu 8.04?
[02:40] <mcw> I was before
[02:40] <Flannel> mcw: You should perhaps answer the questions you were asked.
[02:41] <sk33t0r> my screen is always flickering when I play games
[02:41] <mcw> that would be cool!!
[02:41] <sk33t0r> I just tried playing bf1942 with wine and the screen flickers.. but it also happens when I run a simple game like tucracer
[02:41] <sk33t0r> any ideas?
[02:41] <mcw> wich ones so many questions
[02:41] <Flannel> mcw: Explain how what work?
[02:41] <mcw> wine
[02:41] <testuser_> test
[02:41] <Flannel> mcw: Sure, that's not in the scope of this channel, but come to #ubuntu-offtopic and I'll explain
[02:42] <fazzlie> how to join DALnet server ?
[02:42] <Pascal[Quebec]> Who can help me?
[02:42] <frostbyt3> how can i install or run a file from the erminal
[02:42] <mcw> I can intstall it but what do I do with it next?
[02:42] <frostbyt3> terminal*
[02:42] <adakos> pastebinit? is that the program that lets you send directly to the snippet site?
[02:42] <Flannel> mcw: Read that page, it explains everything you need to do to use it.  Better than I ever could.
[02:42] <sk33t0r> anyone else ever have a similar issue?
[02:42] <frostbyt3> is tar the run command?
[02:43] <Flannel> mcw: If you have further questions, feel free to ask them here.
[02:43] <mcw> how do I get to that and why are people so strict,on the ubuntu website it says you can learn from people here?
[02:43] <mcw> thank you flannel
[02:43] <mcw> flannel pj's rock!!
[02:43] <mcw> there comfortable
[02:43] <Flannel> mcw: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine  is the web site.  We're strict with staying on topic because there's lots of people who want support, and we can't have 100 conversations in the meantime.
[02:44] <mcw> and so are the sheets
[02:44] <ParanoidAndroid> That has plenty to do with Ubuntu.
[02:44] <sivel_> can anyone lend a helping hand to my network problem?
[02:44] <ParanoidAndroid> ;)
[02:44] <mcw> are you guys the bosses?
[02:44] <ParanoidAndroid> Negative.
[02:45] <mcw> how many of you are Canadians that I am talking to??
[02:45] <mamo> I have 2 hard drives...... on one of them i installed ubuntu, and then on the second hard drive i installed win2k and after the windows installation finished, i no longer see ubuntu and windows starts right through. I went system control on windows and show 30 second for multipile os was already checked. so how can i make my pc show me a list of os so i can chose which on i want to start????
[02:45] <mcw> I want to promote ubunu up here
[02:46] <Dr_willis> mamo,  you bneed to decide if you want ubuntu/grub to handle the multi os's or let windows handle it. (i suggest grub)
[02:46] <mcw> we are open minded here
[02:46] <Dr_willis> !fixgrub | mamo
[02:46] <zelrikriando> mcw, I live in Canada now
[02:46] <carandraug> mcw, that's the kind of stuff you should take to #ubuntu-offtopic. This is only for support
[02:46] <guptaxpn> one more quick question
[02:46] <mcw> I am in Yarmouth
[02:46] <mcw> N.S
[02:46] <guptaxpn> what's the best way to batch upload about 15 photos or more to a site?
[02:46] <smee> hiya peoples, does pidgin transfer files via jabber yet?
[02:47] <SNuxoll> smee: yes, it has for a long time iirc
[02:47] <Dr_willis> guptaxpn,  would depend on what the site supports.
[02:47] <mcw> were do I type ubuntu off topic to get there it sounds fun
[02:47] <smee> ok here is the error: (11:15:54) You canceled the transfer of movwas.txt
[02:47] <guptaxpn> i have full ftp access
[02:47] <smee> i did not cancel it,
[02:47] <guptaxpn> but i don't know where to upload it Dr_willis
[02:47] <SNuxoll> smee: does your jabber provider support transfers?
[02:47] <Dr_willis> mcw,  a # shows its a channelname --->  click on it --> :)    #ubuntu-offtopic.
[02:47] <smee> i'm using gmail
[02:48] <SNuxoll> smee: strange, I have no idea
[02:48] <mcw> I don't see it??
[02:48] <smee> do i need to open ports and forward them?
[02:48] <MAckeral> holy crap have you seen this compiz plugins package?
[02:48] <MAckeral> http://tinyurl.com/5jfu5c
[02:48] <carandraug> mcw, what irc client are you using?
[02:48] <mcw> all I see is ubuntu server??
[02:48] <guptaxpn> anyone?
[02:49] <mcw> xchat gnome irc chat
[02:49] <sexaholic200> any one know how to get ymlite working in wine?
[02:49] <mamo> ubottu, thanks, i will try that link and fix my issue....
[02:50] <smee> bbl, going to trowel some documentations see if i can find some updates and details
[02:50] <mcw> I guess I need to add somethig?
[02:50] <carandraug> mcw, go to the menu server in the top and select "Join channel..." and then enter #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:50] <mcw> this is all new to me but I want to learn and help too
[02:50] <sexaholic200> any one know how to get ymlite working in wine?
[02:50] <mcw> what is the main menu called irc?
[02:51] <sexaholic200> me?
[02:51] <carandraug> mcw, irc is just a messaging protocol
[02:51] <mcw> that option?
[02:51] <linxeh> mcw: type /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:51] <sysdoc> ﻿guptaxpn, are you trying to make a connection to the ftp server so you can upload the files?
[02:51] <carandraug> mcw, search for something that says join channel in the menus
[02:51] <bonez46> any suggestions for unbuntu games? I have three young boys who love to play online games..... how do I find games they could play using linux instead of XP?
[02:52] <mcw> you're speakin' chineese  as far as I'm concerned
[02:52] <linxeh> mcw: type /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:52] <mcw> is connect
[02:52] <kevin083> tremulous aint bad, but kinda violent
[02:52] <Slade> mcw: if he was speaking chinese, then you'd see odd symbols on your screen :)
[02:52] <Leefmc> Question: What repositories are these in? http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/libs/gegl I need to install gegl
[02:52] <bonez46> kevin083: is that for me?
[02:52] <mcw> wow somethin' just opened on my screen
[02:52] <node357> is there any way to get 3d working for a nvidia geforce 8800 without the proprietary driver?
[02:53] <Slade> mcw: you're using X-Chat, right?
[02:53] <mcw> did you guys do that??
[02:53] <kevin083> bonez46: yes
[02:53] <mcw> yes
[02:53] <mcw> xchat
[02:54] <bonez46> kevin083: ok, downloading it now.. is it basically d/l and install and play?
[02:54] <Dr_willis> mcw,  be sure you are not mistaking 'xchat-gnome' with 'xchat' also :) the 2 are different.
[02:54] <Slade> mcw: ok, then where you're typing everything to tell us stuff,   type in /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:54] <Leefmc> Anyone? I see its for intrepid, but there has got to be a download for hardy, no?
[02:54] <carandraug> Slade, he's using X-chat with the gnome interface. The buttons are in different places so I've heard and if he can't find a button, I was trying to avoid telling him to use the /join command
[02:54] <mcw> I am using xchat gnome irc chat
[02:54] <zelrikriando>  I cant open 'hyperlinks' anymore from outside of firefox...firefox wont respond to it. Some ideas?
[02:54] <mcw> it's that easy
[02:55] <Dr_willis> mcw,  I would suggest using 'xchat' and dumping xchat-gnome. everyone hates xchat-gnome it seems. :)
[02:55] <kevin083> bonez46: yes, there is also nexuiz, alien arena, sauerbraten and openarena, but oa is a bit more offensive
[02:55] <[z]neo> any site that can i check how to install freenx for hardy?
[02:55] <Dr_willis> !freenx
[02:55] <mcw> just plain xchat right
[02:55] <mcw> no gnome?
[02:56] <Slade> mcw: if you can type to the channel, then you can join channels manually by typing in /join #channel-name
[02:56] <mcw> i installed it from synaptic
[02:56] <Slade> ie, /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:56] <mcw> type it here were I am typing now?
[02:56] <Slade> yep
[02:57]  * ParanoidAndroid backdrifts
[02:57] <mcw> and it is called ubuntu-off topic?
[02:57] <node357> guess not
[02:57] <Slade> #ubuntu-offtopic
[02:57] <mcw> ok
[02:57] <mcw> thanx
[02:57] <mcw> see that's all you had to tell me
[02:57] <Slade> I did, IIRC
[02:58]  * Slade sighs
[02:58] <mcw> hay is for horses and mules
[02:58] <Leefmc> Question: What repositories are these in? http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/libs/gegl I need to install gegl.. thoughts?
[02:58] <mcw> hey slade
[02:58] <node357> !info gegl
[02:58] <mcw> hey slade
[02:59] <Leefmc> Install gegl on Hardy, not Intrpid
[02:59] <Slade> mcw: wrong channel :)
[02:59] <Slade> click the ubuntu-offtopic tab
[02:59] <adakos> im looking for a good bittorrent client (to keep up with the linux releases) - rtorrent is slow for some reason , any other suggestions for web-based interface or terminal-interface (headless, xless)
[02:59] <Slade> and type there
[02:59] <mcw> my words aren't showing up ?
[02:59] <mcw> weird
[02:59] <Leefmc> node357: If its here: http://packages.ubuntu.com/intrepid/libs/gegl , it should be on ubuntu somewhere.. no?
[02:59] <mcw> hey slade
[02:59] <leechy9> #help
[03:00] <node357> Leefmc, yeah by all rights it should be... I don't know what's going on
[03:00] <node357> maybe a bug
[03:00] <Slade> mcw: on the bottom of your xchat window, do you see multiple tabs? one saying #ubuntu, and the other saying #ubuntu-offtopic?
[03:00] <AdrianStrays> I've got a memory card that I put into my laptop, but it isn't showing up anywhere....
[03:00] <AdrianStrays> Can someone help me find it
[03:01] <Leefmc> node357: Gegl, Babl (required by gegl) are not on the standard hardy repo, as far as i can tell. And i can't compile bable because it requires glib 2.12 or greater.. of which i already have installed.
[03:01] <tensei> I'm thinking of putting virtualbox on ubuntu 8.04... do I need another partition?
[03:01] <Slade> oi
[03:01] <Leefmc> node357: Technically i have libglib-2.0 iirc, and the version number states that it is 2.16
[03:01] <bonez46> kevin083: other than running 'sudo apt-get install tremulous' what should one have to do to run it?
[03:01] <kevin083> tensei: no
[03:02] <Leefmc> node357: Any thoughts?
[03:02] <charles_> adakos: both Transmission and Deluge have headless, gui, and web interfaces
[03:02] <kevin083> bonez46: i'm not sure, as i installed it from the installer at the tremulous.net site
[03:02] <[z]neo> why i cant play real media files?
[03:02] <kevin083> bonez46: you can probably type tremulous in a terminal and if that works make a shortcut
[03:02] <adakos> charles_ thanks!
[03:02] <tensei> kevin083: I was reading a how to on installing it on 8.04 and it has a section about picking a hard disk.  So I wasn't sure if it was asking for a partition to boot the virtual OS from
[03:02] <[z]neo> i already install the codec
[03:02] <sysdoc> ﻿When you run ps aux VSZ and RSS are displayed, is the RSS value included in the VSZ value?
[03:03] <adakos> charles_ are they both availible from apt-get  with the standard repos enabled + multi + uni ?
[03:03] <mcw> hi
[03:03] <charles_> dunno
[03:03] <mcw> again
[03:03] <kevin083> tensei: you can designate a single file which will be stored in your ~/.virtualbox folder and act as the virtual hard drive
[03:03] <tensei> kevin083: ty
[03:03] <mcw> i went to ubuntu off topic and then it failed
[03:04] <Leefmc> Anyone?
[03:04] <sk33t0r> soo much flickering during my games in ubuntu :-/
[03:04] <sk33t0r> even tuxracer flickers
[03:04] <mcw> oh Canada
[03:04] <Slade> mcw: i'd just install plain xchat
[03:04] <kevin083> tensei: i've also heard that it is possible to run a real windows install with virtualbox but NOT recommended because it can cause problems with the real install (e.g. when it sees new hardware)
[03:04] <sk33t0r> everything else works fine
[03:04] <sk33t0r> anyone else ever have a similar problem?
[03:04] <kevin083> tensei: i mean for those of us who dual-boot
[03:05] <c0mp133713313371> sk33t0r: v-sync?
[03:05] <carandraug> sk33t0r, yes, I had. I switched the graphical drivers
[03:05] <tensei> kevin083: I was looking for a solution to play MP3's, i dual boot linux and vista... i was looking at virtual box, do you know if thats viable?
[03:05] <bonez46> back later
[03:05] <sk33t0r> what kind of graphics card did you have?
[03:05] <sk33t0r> I have an ati x300
[03:05] <mcw> i am doing it now xchat common right?
[03:05] <Slade> mcw: yes
[03:05] <carandraug> sk33t0r, ati x700mobility
[03:06] <mcw> ok done
[03:06] <kevin083> tensei: seems like a lot of work to go through just to play mp3s... why not use a linux player like vlc?
[03:06] <sk33t0r> yea mine is x300 moblility
[03:06] <sk33t0r> so were you able to fix it?
[03:06] <kevin083> tensei: are they drm-riddled files?
[03:06] <sk33t0r> carandraug, may I speak with you in a PM?
[03:07] <mcw> #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:07] <ari_stress> good morning guys :)
[03:07] <carandraug> sk33t0r, you can
[03:07] <mcw> good morning vietnam
[03:07] <mcw> I think I'm going to go to the bar!!!!
[03:07] <tensei> kevin083: well that and I want to test websites on IE... sorry i'm new to ubuntu.. i put it on a scrap box I got for free cause XP was fried and fell in love with it... would i be able to download and install windows programs and run them through virtual box?
[03:08] <kevin083> tensei: yes, but not games. for games you could use wine or native versions
[03:08] <Slade> mcw: I'll take a long island iced tea
[03:09] <tensei> kevin083: I installed wine but didn't find much luck with it... it didn't pick up any of my programs in program files..
[03:09] <bmarley13> what is a good virtualization program to run windows inside ubuntu?
[03:09] <morodock> bmarley13: vmware
[03:09] <Leefmc> Can anyone give me some help with compiling a library? It says i need a package of a specific version or greater, and i have that greater version installed. Thoughts?
[03:10] <kevin083> tensei: you're supposed to install your programs into wine, just like you would install them on windows. this is so they can add themselves to wine's registry and create shortcuts among other things
[03:10] <mcw> ok xchat gnome is gone
[03:10] <mcw> now onto ubuntu off topic
[03:10] <Flannel> mcw: please take off topic chatter to #ubuntu-offtopic, not here.  Thanks.
[03:10] <mcw> how do i get there
[03:10] <Flannel> mcw: /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[03:10] <bmarley13> morodock, is it free beyond a 30 day trial?
[03:10] <tensei> kevin083: I didn't know you could install programs through wine, whats the big difference between wine and virtualbox?
[03:11] <Flannel> tensei: virtualbox is actual virtualization (emulation, etc).  Wine isn't
[03:11] <os2mac> how does one add a universal keybinding for a particular application?
[03:11] <kevin083> tensei: wine will give you hardware graphics acceleration and be faster, but it is not windows and not all apps will work
[03:11] <carandraug> tensei, with wine you don't need to install windows. It's kind of an emulator but not one. It's better to use wine if you can
[03:12] <carandraug> tensei, but with wine not all programs work well
[03:12] <tensei> thanks for all the feedback!.. Is finding out if a program works with wine trial and error, or is their a way.. also.. how would you install a program through wine, would it put it on your windows partition or the linux one?
[03:13] <genii> !appdb | tensei
[03:13] <opticalmouse> and having a problem when you try to remove/uninstall whatever windows application in wine
[03:13] <Alonea> tensei: linux one. and the wine site has a database..yeah what he said
[03:13] <opticalmouse> you may also use wine-door
[03:13] <tensei> wine-door?
[03:13] <kevin083> tensei: the windows programs get installed to ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files where ~ is your home directory
[03:14] <Dillo_of_Faeo> need some help with a video problem
[03:14] <opticalmouse> Dillo,can you specify what the kind of video problem is?
[03:15] <Dillo_of_Faeo> most videos played (and all DVDs) won't render properly.  They play similar to what a scrambled TV channel might look like
[03:15] <Dillo_of_Faeo> opticalmouse: sorry, I was typing up the second half of that message
[03:15] <carandraug> tensei, wine-door is a bundle of the most used windows software that you can install automatically through wine
[03:16] <opticalmouse> Dillo_of_Faeo, did you use mplayer?

[03:18] <Leefmc> Question: I have a broken dependency and i am trying to remove it so i can reinstall it (i tried a new getdeb version of glib). Well now when i try to remove it, i keep getting told it is going to remove ubuntu-desktop.. which is not wanted ofcourse. Thoughts?
[03:19] <billy____> is there any way to get an iso from a live cd?
[03:19] <Flannel> Leefmc: That's expected.  It'll try and remove a lot of other packages as well (because they depend on glibc), you'll want to force the old version
[03:19] <billy____> or do i have to dl ubuntu again?
[03:19] <Leefmc> Flannel: Yea but how?
[03:19] <kitche> Leefmc: ubuntu-desktop can be removed
[03:19] <kitche> Flannel: by chance how did you get glibc from glib?
[03:19] <billy____> anyone? is there any way to get an .iso from an ubuntu livedisk?
[03:19] <Flannel> kitche: I assumed thats what he was talking about.
[03:19] <Leefmc> kitche: Yea but i dont really feel like reinstalling the desktop. ugh
[03:20] <tensei> awsome, thanks everyone, you have been a huge help
[03:20] <Mecha25> billy: didn't you burn the livedisk from an ISO?
[03:20] <billy____> no
[03:20] <Mecha25> hi tensei
[03:20] <billy____> i ordered the disk from ubuntu lol
[03:20] <kitche> Leefmc: ubuntu-desktop is just a meta package it doesn't uninstall your desktop
[03:20] <Leefmc> Flannel: So i have to remove my desktop eh?
[03:20] <billy____> and they sent it to me
[03:20] <Leefmc> kitche: Ah
[03:20] <Leefmc> well here goes then
[03:20] <carandraug> billy____, that's easy. Are you using Gnome?
[03:20] <billy____> no
[03:20] <billy____> windows
[03:20] <billy____> lmao
[03:20] <thomasite> Hello.
[03:20] <deathowner> hi alll
[03:20] <Mecha25> billy: you can download one from ubuntu.com, or use a ISO ripper, such is Imgburn
[03:20] <billy____> i want to make a linux vm on my windows comp
[03:20] <Mecha25> imgburn runs in windows
[03:20] <Mecha25> it'll do it
[03:21] <billy____> Mecha25 can i get that for windows?
[03:21] <kitche> Leefmc: since gnome is your desktop ubuntu-desktop just installs all the programs and such kinda like a giant pull mechinism
[03:21] <Leefmc> Flannel: The weird thing is, its glib that is "bad", but the broken fix is not mentioning glib at all
[03:21] <Mecha25> billy: imgburn is windows only
[03:21] <billy____> oh aight kewl
[03:21] <billy____> lol thanks
[03:21] <Leefmc> kitche: eh? _all the programs_?
[03:21] <Mecha25> no problem
[03:21] <Leefmc> Well anyway, here goes
[03:21] <akahige> hello.  I can't login to my desktop. I'm getting an error that says "User's HOME/.dmrc file is being ignored" then goes on to talk about file and dir ownership... Don't know what went wrong. All I did was reboot...
[03:22] <meoblast001> hi... im using gtk-recordmydesktop with some emulator... and the sound isnt recording.... welll.. its not audible in the video... how can i fix this?
[03:22] <tensei> mecha25: what's up man
[03:22] <Leefmc> Man this sucks. I hate compiling your own libraries :/
[03:22] <Mecha25> nothing much, still looking for USB support
[03:22] <kitche> Leefmc: well for non gnome applications but it just makes it easier to get the desktop to a useable state for dekstop users really so they just have to log in instead of installing the programs that ubuntu-desktop pulls in
[03:22] <billy____> Mecha25 how big is the file?
[03:22]  * dextone morning guys...
[03:22] <billy____> nvm
[03:22] <billy____> its small
[03:22] <billy____> lol
[03:23] <meoblast001> any idea?
[03:23] <meoblast001> how do you turn Jack on
[03:23] <meoblast001> that might help
[03:23] <thomasite> I have a question. :) I have already FrostWire 4.13.5 on my laptop and each time I use it, there's a message box saying I could upgrade it to the latest version. The problem is, I didn't actually download FrostWire from the FrostWire website; I downloaded it from getdeb.
[03:23] <thomasite> Do I upgrade my FrostWire or just keep this version?
[03:23] <Mecha25> Anybody know why doing intensive reads from a USB device (external drive) causes all USB support to die on my laptop till reboot?
[03:23] <thomasite> Thanks.
[03:25] <Leefmc> kitche: Are you familiar with compiling?
[03:25] <kitche> Leefmc: yep do it all the time

[03:26] <Leefmc> kitche: Mind helpin me in a minute? Im trying to compile gegl but babl ends up failing because it doesn't find glib 2.12 or greater (even though i have 2.16 installed)
[03:26] <mdg> Can netzero be successfully used with Ubuntu?
[03:26] <Mecha25> leefmc: did you try sudo apt-get build-dep babl?
[03:27] <Gnea> mdg: i would imagine it can
[03:27] <meoblast001> Gnea: i have it installed... i just need to get it up and running.. i forget all the arguements you have to pass to it.. .just a standard bitrate and stuff.. what  would that be
[03:27] <Leefmc> Mecha25: No
[03:27] <crames|> no, ubuntu has no compatability with ubuntu at this time
[03:27] <akahige> can anyone tell me why I'm getting an error that my .dmrc file is being ignored on login to Gnome. whatever is happening is keeping me from getting to my desktop...
[03:27] <crames|> it is being worked on last i heard
[03:27] <crames|> netzero*
[03:27] <Gnea> mdg: i'm finding quite a bit of i google for: ubuntu netzero
[03:27] <Mecha25> try that, if you have the "Source Code" box enabled in your Software Sources window, it should automatically install the dependencies
[03:27] <mdg> I heard it works with linspire of whatever they call it these days, but ick I want Ubuntu
[03:28] <Pokshun> Friends, I am new to Ubuntu/Linux. I got some questions 1) Why is it that some packages I have to manually get the source and compile/install myself.. whereas others I can just apt-get install? 2) I compiled the GNU GSL library from source, and installed it even.. but when i do a "whereis gsl" command it shows empty. But I know the library was installed succsesffuly because I was able to compile my code which depended on it.
[03:28] <michalski> question; how do you change the default runlevel at boot (I've already customized them using sysv-rc-conf)
[03:28] <Gnea> crames|: i highly doubt that.
[03:28] <Leefmc> Mecha25: Will do, thank you
[03:29] <Leefmc> Mecha25: It says it is unable to find source package for babl
[03:29] <kitche> Leefmc: well that is most likely due to the pkgconfig looking in a different spot then what the .pc file is installed to
[03:29] <Leefmc> kitche: So how do i fix that?
[03:29] <Mecha25> leefmc: you need to add Source Code to your Software Sources
[03:29] <Alistair> Help: why should I have to restart-X each time to get Nautilus to show windows shares?
[03:30] <Leefmc> Mecha25: K
[03:30] <Mecha25> it's under System, Administration, in your menu
[03:30] <Mecha25> alistair: give it time after you start the computer, it takes a bit to find them
[03:30] <Leefmc> Mecha25: Which source code?
[03:30] <Leefmc> Mecha25: Do you mean a source repository? Or the "Source Code" checkbox
[03:30] <vilhelm> Hello I have an Creative Muvo X Mp3 Player and i cant seem to delete my mp3 folders in it ! :(
[03:31] <Mecha25> leefmc: Source code checkbox
[03:31] <Leefmc> Mecha25: It was checked then
[03:31] <Mecha25> odd...
[03:31] <kitche> Leefmc: well for the babl thing you do need the source code most likely to compile whatever your compiling I m a bit busy right now really due to looking up computer parts
[03:31] <Leefmc> Mecha25: Although, technically its not "checked", it has a dash
[03:31] <Mecha25> oh! check it then
[03:31] <Mecha25> that's the "you have some enabled, not all" thing
[03:31] <Leefmc> Mecha25: It only goes to a dash
[03:31] <Mecha25> ??... odd
[03:32] <Leefmc> Mecha25: I've got two options, dash or blank checkbox
[03:32] <Mecha25> go to the second tab, check all those sources

[03:35] <Flannel> Pokshun: Not all of the software is in the repositories, obviously not everything can be packaged.  You can recommend programs for packaging if you think they ought to be in the repos (or do it yourself, see #ubuntu-motu), whereis should find it, if you put it in a normal place.
[03:35] <Mecha25> leefmc: that's weird

[03:43] <wood__>  newbee617 you have to install unrar from the repos
[03:43] <WDC> Gnea: ORLY: mkdir: cannot create directory `/media/sdcard': File exists
[03:44] <SeveredCross> unlink: Thanks.
[03:44] <Gnea> !unrar | newbee617
[03:44] <wood__> newbee617, sudo apt-get install unrar and then the archive manager will open them
[03:44] <Gnea> WDC: hehehe
[03:44] <Gnea> WDC: ok, does df show it?
[03:44] <WDC> Gnea: It does, BUT it is empty
[03:45] <carandraug> SeveredCross, I thought it beeped. have you turn off the PC speakers?
[03:45] <Gnea> WDC: paste here the one line that has it, please
[03:45] <WDC> Gnea: There are clearly files on the card (sez the camera)
[03:45] <WDC> Couple lines

[03:45] <FloodBot2> WDC: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[03:45] <Gnea> WDC: no, i meant from df
[03:45] <WDC> df...
[03:46] <WDC> Gnea: What is df?
[03:46] <Gnea> !df
[03:46] <Gnea> df -Th   :)
[03:46] <WDC> Grapical?
[03:46] <Gnea> heh, read: baobab (GNOME)
[03:47] <SeveredCross> Hmm. That sound stuff isn't working.
[03:47] <SeveredCross> However, console beep is enabled.
[03:47] <WDC> SeveredCross: LOL!
[03:47] <WDC> Gnea: What do you want from it? It says it's empty
[03:47] <shane2peru> does anyone know about the xserver-xorg-video-intel bug?  mostly with the i855GM intel graphics cards?
[03:48] <shane2peru> The bug report is here:  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/221316   Someone told me there was an update in the repos and it fixed it, but it didn't fix mine, and I want to be sure it is still being worked on.
[03:48] <WDC> Gnea: It says the SD Card (in /media/) is 127GB. I WISH i had one that big. But seriously it is the size of my partition
[03:49] <wizardslovak> hello  guys
[03:49] <Gnea> WDC: okay, the df -Th  command will tell you what IS mounted on your system - so, for the one line that is mounted (such as: /dev/sda6     ext3     36G   34G  438M  99% /home )
[03:49] <shane2peru> hey even mr ubottu shows it as fixed, but it isn't, does that mean I need to file a new bug?
[03:50] <WDC> Gnea: It's not there.
[03:50] <WDC> Gnea: the sda1 that IS there is 150GB
[03:50] <Gnea> WDC: then it's not mounted.
[03:50] <WDC> no way
[03:50] <WDC> lol
[03:50] <Gnea> WDC: right, /dev/sda1 is your hard disk
[03:50] <Gnea> :)
[03:50] <Gnea> that's just standard ubuntuism
[03:50] <WDC> hmmm. lol
[03:50] <Gnea> and yes, i just made that word up
[03:51] <WDC> You see, I am quite the noob, from Windows
[03:51] <shane2peru> ahh, no one up on bug ﻿221316
[03:51] <Gnea> well, that's okay, we'll get you sorted
[03:51] <shane2peru> !bug #221316
[03:52] <WDC> Gnea: COOL! So how do I mount dis' thing
[03:52] <DrRealHouse> If you want you join in a Windows vs Linux debate, go to http://www.stickam.com/member/loadChatRoom.do?roomId=733779 (Audio and video)
[03:52] <WDC> DrRealHouse: No deal
[03:52] <Gnea> WDC: ok, the && depended on the first command working right - but since it failed (the directory was already there), the second command didn't run
[03:52] <WDC> hmm
[03:52] <WDC> so isolate the second command?
[03:53] <shane2peru> ok, do the dev's have a chat room that I can get to the bottom of this?
[03:53] <Gnea> WDC: therefore, sudo mount /dev/mmcblk0 /media/sdcard
[03:53] <WDC> It want s filesystem
[03:53] <WDC> where do I put that
[03:53] <shane2peru> or better yet, how do I address a serious bug with ubuntu?

[04:14] <num1> admiral_copeland: if you don't mind running windows VirtualBox works perfectly for meas long as you don't want to run anything that requires 3D acceleration
[04:14] <Gnea> admiral_copeland: what?
[04:14] <num1> admiral_copeland: 3d *hardware* acceleration
[04:15] <admiral_copeland> so i can use 3d acceleration as long as its software
[04:15] <adakos> anyone have a good primer on how to run virtual hosts on one computer and run multiple hostnames (www.test.com, www.lol.org, www.i-heart-ubuntu.net)
[04:15] <mamo> SeaPhor, no this makes me wonder...... i could have some stuff on a hard drive and permission was denied for someone, and that person can use a live cd and get into the hard right? or i'm thinking wrong... that is just a wonder
[04:16] <duke3d> hey. I have all the php stuff installed, but php is still not working
[04:16] <pazsion> o good an offical channel
[04:16]  * orgthingy claps
[04:16] <pazsion> =D
[04:16] <num1> admiral_copeland: if you're using VirtualBox then yes, you can use software 3D acceleration (I'm not sure how much of a speed penalty there is but it's probably not much)
[04:16] <admiral_copeland> mamo: yes they could use a live disk
[04:17] <SeaPhor> mamo, well, yes,,, but did you have to put in a password?
[04:17] <pazsion> lolz i got 2 problems
[04:17] <num1> pazsion: shoot and we'll try to answer
[04:17] <mamo> SeaPhor, there is a pass for sudo ofcourse
[04:17] <pazsion> dpkg -reinstall xserver-xorg does nothing...only list more commands
[04:18] <pazsion> arent i sopose to get a gui?
[04:18] <SeaPhor> mamo, and IndyGunFreak would be better one to ask on that,,, good question
[04:18] <Gnea> pazsion: aptitude reinstall xserver-xorg
[04:18] <bigmack83> i cant get my wireless to work on my laptop. im using kubuntu and everything is up to date. but the wireless button on my laptop is red (off) if that makes a difference. maybe i need to install another app? anyone have any ideas what i can do?

[04:18] <pazsion> no i haven't gone to root yet
[04:18] <kcman1> i have a bin file and no way of viewing it in ubuntu can i make it an iso or am i stuck like chuck?
[04:18] <num1> bigmack83: what wireless card are you using?
[04:18] <mamo> SeaPhor, well, after all, the solution will lie in Rar with a pass.... that is what i have always used, and will continue on ubuntu... peace everyone
[04:18] <Gnea> silly game

[04:20] <punkrockguy318> free on desktop
[04:20] <punkrockguy318> works
[04:21] <Flannel> pazsion: No.  sudo dpkg-reinstall blah blah blah
[04:21] <num1> pazsion: nope, just sudo [command to run], then your password when it prompts you

[04:23] <num1> hitman1985: under command I think the command is also just "wine", but give me a second to check
[04:23] <Flannel> orgthingy: #ubuntu-offtopic would be the place for that sort of stuff
[04:23] <orgthingy> yea, i noticed
[04:24] <Bhavesh> but grub was configured to use root(hd2,0) but i had to change it to hd0,0 to make it work correctly
[04:24] <num1> kcman1: I'll help you in a sec, please hold on

[04:29] <hitman1985> num1, i tried uninstalling all wine programs but it wouldnt let me so i uninstalled wine to try it that way (noob style:) )
[04:30] <num1> kcman1: allright, if you click "Applications->Add/Remove" you can type hex editor in the box at the top right of the window that pops up and then click on the check box next to the program called "GNOME Hexedecimal Editor" or something to that effect, and then hit the apply button at the bottom right of the window
[04:31] <hitman1985> Hiro2, hur3huqh730rvppb2nrcba05hgigmzj4
[04:31] <hitman1985> Hiro2, thats ur invite code, no more for today
[04:31] <hitman1985> :)
[04:31] <num1> hitman1985: Allright, so click on the Applications and then click on "New Menu"

[04:33] <hitman1985> num1,  what is the command for the wine app
[04:33] <num1> hitman1985: select Programs and make another menu called "Acessories"
[04:33] <pazsion> i did type sudo, it went through a few procceses and said it would need to get 450kb of something from somehwere then E: could not get lock /var/lib/apt/lists/lock
[04:33] <num1> hitman1985: the command is "wine"
[04:33] <num1> hitman1985: but you have to give it an argument, namely the program to run
[04:34] <hitman1985> num1, command is "wine" and then ?
[04:34] <num1> hitman1985: which is why you have to add menu items on a program-to-program basis
[04:34] <hitman1985> ahhhh :(
[04:34] <kcman1> num1 ok i have the editor and i am set to open one of the .bin files anything i need to know?

[04:34] <christian__> \join #debian-es
[04:34] <SeaPhor> pazsion, did you try doing sudo -i then typing the same command?
[04:35] <amrik> I tried marking a package in synaptic to lock its version but when I try to aptitude upgrade it tries to upgrade that package
[04:35] <num1> hitman1985: yeah, notepad is "notepad", "Browse C:\ Drive" is "xdg-open ~/.wine/drive_c"
[04:35] <num1> hitman1985: "Configure Wine" is "winecfg", and "Uninstall Wine Software" is "uninstaller0"
[04:35] <hitman1985> num1, holy S.... how come thats so difficult isnt there a way to make the install like first install ?

[04:50] <wols> weternal: "ati"
[04:50] <num1> hitman1985: you only removed the program, all the files like the programs you installed were still in .wine ;)
[04:50] <hitman1985> num1, i guess so :)
[04:50] <Flannel> modem_: It's not important.  Those are the channel guidelines, regardless of who's asking you to follow them.
[04:50] <num1> hitman1985: so right click wine, choose install, hit double apply :P and type in your password
[04:50] <weternal> wols how do I get that set up?
[04:50] <modem_> lol
[04:50] <hitman1985> num1, is this the same way i want to erase google earth ?

[04:51] <Lunis> if i have a handful of debs in a folder, how could I check each one to see if it's fully installed and if it is, rm it?
[04:51] <weternal> ubuntu is saying I can't use it
[04:51] <modem_> lol
[04:52] <ValentineX> @gnea hello sir modem help
[04:52] <hitman1985> num1, thats done with the install
[04:52] <weternal> compiz is automatically installed on hardy right?

[04:53] <tritium> hitman1985: google has packaged google earth for ubuntu.  They have their own repository.
[04:53] <weternal> is it listed in the appearance preferences menu as extra effects?
[04:53] <Lunis> wols: that's almost what i need, but i need to check actual deb files
[04:53] <num1> hitman1985: then I have no idea why it won't let you uninstall, unless you didn't install it from synaptic or from apt-get

[04:54] <Wizard2694> im seeing alot more coming out for linux/ubuntu lately
[04:54] <Flannel> weternal: Its very limited at what you can configure out of the box.  install compizconfig-settings-manager for something more like youre used to
[04:54] <pazsion> ok, after letting it boot, it disabled the xserver..becuase its not setup right
[04:54] <num1> hitman1985: I'd try installing a program on wine and seeing if the menu "magically appeared"
[04:54] <hitman1985> tritium, idea how to get rid of that stuff ?
[04:54] <tritium> hitman1985: what stuff?

[04:54] <num1> tritium: he want's to remove the google earth package

[04:55] <hitman1985> num1, ima put dreamweaver in cdrom now :)
[04:55] <num1> Wizard2694: the feeling passes after a month of two
[04:55] <tritium> hitman1985: you didn't install the google package (.deb.)?
[04:55] <num1> hitman1985: lol, no no screenshot is necessary
[04:55] <Lunis> tritium: i have to ask, does "sexy themes" constitute not family friendly?

[04:59] <shadowblade> Hello, I'm trying to install gvfs from source, and ./configure told me "Requested 'glib-2.0 >= 2.17.6' but version of GLib Uninstalled is 2.16.0", so I installed glib 2.17.7 from source, but synaptic still says the installed version is 2.16.4, so the configure for gvfs is still seeing it as out of date. Help?
[05:00] <hitman1985> http://earth.google.com/download-earth.html
[05:00] <Kurcz_> can someone help me set up my sound? I tried the guides but I'm not having any luck
[05:00] <hitman1985> tritium, http://earth.google.com/download-earth.html
[05:00] <crdlb> shadowblade: why would you do that?
[05:00] <hitman1985> tritium, thats what i downloaded :)
[05:00] <tritium> hitman1985: use the google repositories for which I gave you a URL.
[05:00] <Lunis> modem_: deb http://www.nanolx.org/apt excelsior main
[05:00] <ganjaman> what filesystem would you run on a 4tb partition?
[05:00] <hitman1985> tritium, i want to get rid of it not install it :)
[05:00] <Lunis> modem_: to save you the poking around
[05:00] <ganjaman> i think ext3 is to bananistic
[05:00] <shadowblade> crdlb: I'm getting errors from nautilus like "Cannot open computer: locations" and one tip from the support forums was to install the latest version of gvfs from the offical sources.
[05:00] <G3N0> weternal: thanks man it works now :D
[05:01] <cafree> Can someone walk me through how to configure sound support in VirtualBox?  I don't see any settings for it
[05:01] <Guest1091> @Paz - I believe you can use "sudo gedit /ect/X11/xorg.conf"
[05:01] <Bhavesh> can i still download/install ubuntu server 8.04 ?
[05:01] <hitman1985> tritium, that gives you a googleearthlinux.bin file
[05:01] <tritium> hitman1985: yes, I know
[05:01] <hitman1985> tritium, do you know how to get my wine shortcuts back in the applications ?
[05:01] <ganjaman> you need to drink beere
[05:02] <modem_> Lunis, thanks a bunch :)
[05:02] <hitman1985> tritium, cuz i installed dw8 now and still no luck :(
[05:02] <tritium> hitman1985: I don't use wine, sorry
[05:02] <crdlb> shadowblade: it would be much more practical to upgrade to intrepid once it hits beta
[05:02] <SeaPhor> pazsion, what are you wanting to do in the xorg.conf?
[05:02] <Lunis> modem_: enjoy :)
[05:02] <velvithammer> beer
[05:02] <pazsion> ooo ok i need to be connected =)
[05:02] <hitman1985> tritium, why why why did i stuupido erase it in the first place :( <- mad at myself now
[05:02] <crdlb> shadowblade: but you may need to specify PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig when running ./configure
[05:02] <shadowblade> crdlb: I kind of needed to get to a usb flash drive in the next hour.
[05:02] <[z]neo> hey guys, is this installation setup for freenx works on hardy heron? https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeNX
[05:02] <crdlb> shadowblade: mount? :)
[05:03] <hitman1985> tritium, ur good with getting a word list from a external / network storage ? ie 1 tb hdd with songs in a list as txt file ?
[05:03] <skpl> can someone help me with adding a new program to my applications menu?
[05:04] <shadowblade> crdlb: It doesn't automount and I don't know the /dev file for it - also I gather from the forums that the problem breaking nautilus may also render flash drives unmountable
[05:04] <ari_stress> skpl: right click on the menu > edit menu
[05:04] <skpl> ari_stress: i cannot seem to find the program i am looking for. it is the thundebrird mail client and i know it is installed but i do not know where theprogram is stored
[05:05] <bozy> test
[05:05] <hitman1985> tritium, was nice talkin to you got to run, cya good night
[05:05] <ari_stress> skpl: thunderbird is in 'internet' cathegory
[05:05] <bozy> hello every one
[05:05] <skpl> ari_stress: im sorry but i do not have that there
[05:05] <ari_stress> skpl: maybe u dont have thunderbird installed?
[05:06] <cycom> skpl: Applications -> Internet -> Thunderbird isn't there?
[05:06] <skpl> ari_stress: according to synaptic i do
[05:06] <skpl> cycom: no, only evolution mail client
[05:06] <pazsion> SEAphor i just re-installed xserver-xorg i'm rebooting to see if this fujitsu lifebook b2620 will run ubuntu
[05:06] <ari_stress> skpl: how about typing 'thunderbird' in a terminal, just to make sure
[05:06] <skpl> ari_stress: command not found
[05:07] <cycom> skpl: then you don't have it installed.
[05:07] <SeaPhor> pazsion, there are some graphical fixes if not working the first time
[05:07] <cycom> skpl: try to have synaptic re-install it.
[05:07] <skpl> cycom ok thank you
[05:07] <cycom> skpl: don't forget about ari_stress :)
[05:07] <bozy> I installed apache2 ,but the file httpd.conf is empty.What can I do?
[05:08] <skpl> ari_stress:  thank you as well
[05:08] <Flannel> bozy: debian based distros don't use httpd.conf, they use a number of other files depending on what you're modifying.  What are you trying to change?
[05:08] <tritium> bozy: that's normal
[05:08]  * LadySerena coughs up a BSD hairball
[05:09] <cycom> LadySerena: ugh. been licking that demon again?
[05:09] <ari_stress> no problem skpl: apt-get install thunderbird
[05:09] <Flannel> bozy: apache2.conf is for serverwide configs, stuff in mods-enabled/ is for module configs and stuff in sites-enabled/ is for specific virtual hosts.
[05:09] <G3N0> whoever invented the sudo apt-get system is a genious :) and a time-saver
[05:09] <LadySerena> its daemon, not demon  ¬.¬
[05:09] <Leefmc> Question: Whats a good DVD Player? MPlayer seems to stink horribly at it, same for MoviePlayer
[05:09] <IndyGunFreak> Leefmc: vlc
[05:09] <Leefmc> IndyGunFreak: K thanks
[05:09] <Leefmc> IndyGunFreak: Wonder why MPlayer sucks at it, it rocks everything else imo
[05:10] <IndyGunFreak> Leefmc: eh, i'm the wrong person to ask that, i hate mplayer
[05:10] <Leefmc> ah
[05:10] <TJ-Linux> alright, I need some help.  I wanted to change the way the file browser would mount a drive so I edited the fstab file, now when I try to mount the drive in the file browser I am told "unable to mount" and that I need to mount the volume as root.  While before it would ask me for my root password, now it does not... if before I needed permission and it would ask me, what do I need to set in fstab so that it will ask me now?
[05:10] <tritium> Leefmc: xine is another option
[05:10] <pazsion> o dude, i'm usint 7.04....wth?
[05:10] <pazsion> i thought it upgraded...
[05:10] <G3N0> If i just installed a program through sudo apt-get and its nto showing up in the applications drop down menu how do i run it?
[05:10] <Leefmc> tritium: Which is better? I've personally never liked vlc
[05:10] <IndyGunFreak> xine isn't bad.. but it is a bit glitchy for me
[05:11] <IndyGunFreak> !best | Leefmc
[05:11] <tritium> Leefmc: depends on your preference.
[05:11] <G3N0> how do i run a program through terminal without navigation to it?
[05:11] <cycom> Leefmc: try totem-xine :)
[05:11] <Leefmc> IndyGunFreak: Yes yes, but just assume when people ask you which is "best", that they want your opinion. :p, after all, thats all you can give anyway. Nothing is "best".
[05:11] <tritium> G3N0: if it's not already in your path, specify the full path
[05:11] <cycom> Leefmc: lets you use all your pretty multimedia buttons on a laptop, but works with DVDs
[05:12] <G3N0> tritium: i don't know the path thats the thing, how do i search it?
[05:12] <IndyGunFreak> Leefmc: but some people think there's actually  'best' application for something, when there's not
[05:12] <tritium> G3N0: which, whereis, find, etc.
[05:12] <Leefmc> IndyGunFreak: Blech, imo there is :). Sure its still opinion, but generally as long as the opinion is educated, it is probably right.
[05:12] <G3N0> tritium: omg that was easy thankyou
[05:12] <cycom> Leefmc: you might have to remove totem-gstreamer to get it to use totem-xine though.  not sure how to select totem-xine as the default.
[05:13] <bozy> think you, Flannel
[05:13] <cycom> Leefmc: but totem-xine is what I use until totem-gstreamer supports DVD menus.
[05:13] <IndyGunFreak> later all
[05:13] <tritium> G3N0: got it working?
[05:13] <G3N0> tritium: trying now ;)
[05:14] <anachronoks> anyone figured out a way to watch the olympics?
[05:14] <pazsion> ugh, xorg is still loading the last config after reinstalling xserver-xorg...i need it to detect it or let me select other drivers/modules
[05:14] <G3N0> tritium: wierd.... it says launching kismet server. suid priv-dropping disabled. this may not be secuire. done.
[05:14] <cycom> LadySerena: also, BSD might call it a Daemon, but I don't answer to them :)
[05:14] <tritium> anachronoks: I think your question lacks detail.  I'm watching them right now.
[05:14] <pazsion> watching the olyimpics...turn on the tv?
[05:15] <anachronoks> considering this is a ubuntu chat and not a TV chat, i thought the context was already clear ;)
[05:15] <cycom> pazsion: there's a command to reconfigure Xorg automagically, but I can't remember it... make a backup of your old xorg.conf just in case though
[05:15] <tritium> anachronoks: you might let us know, then, if you have a TV tuner card, or what you're asking
[05:15] <hbalint> hi. I have a problem. don't know, how to get my ati radeon X300 videocard work fine on ubuntu8.04?  I wanted to play Age of mithology, in wine. but, the screen is flicking. it do it also if I want to play Supertux. what should I do?
[05:16] <LadySerena> Xorg -configure
[05:16] <pazsion> the old xorg is not needed
[05:16] <LadySerena> you'd know that if you read your manuals  :)
[05:16] <utnubu_user> I need to know if ubuntu stores data about the users and their activities like windows does. If so, how can I delete such files?
[05:16] <tritium> cycom, LadySerena: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:16] <Flannel> utnubu_user: which activities?
[05:16] <anachronoks> okay, let me try again. does anyone know how to watch the olympics, online, without a tv tuner card or a TV
[05:16] <LadySerena> tritium, that seems needlessly complicated
[05:16] <tritium> LadySerena: it's not
[05:16] <anachronoks> on Ubuntu!!
[05:16] <anachronoks> ;)
[05:16] <Leefmc> Bah. vlc isn't working heh
[05:17] <LadySerena> Xorg -configure  <-- what could be easier?
[05:17] <hbalint> Xorg -configure
[05:17] <cycom> tritium: pazsion I think he needs dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[05:17] <tritium> cycom: not generally
[05:18] <tritium> LadySerena: xserver-xorg is under package management.  It is best to use dpkg-reconfigure in such cases.
[05:18] <LadySerena> actually, /etc/X11/xorg.conf doesn't even exist on my laptop  :D
[05:18] <pazsion> abc i think is the boradcast network
[05:18] <cycom> LadySerena: Oh? How come?
[05:19] <LadySerena> never made it
[05:19] <anachronoks> well i guess i just have to install windows like with 90% of the other stuff i want to do
[05:19] <Reformer81> I use Ubuntu at home for my family desktop.  Is there any way to cause a user to automatically be logged off after a certain time of inactivity?
[05:19] <utnubu_user> Flannel, something like which applications are used, which internet sites are visited, and other personal data
[05:19] <sk33t0r> hey all.. I've got this issue where I need to restart my pc when I plug in a knew usb device for ubuntu to recognize it.. any ideas how to circumvent that minor inconvenience
[05:19] <skpl> can someone explain to me how to change my login password in ubuntu?
[05:19] <Leefmc> cycom: How do you view a dvd with totem-xine? I downloaded it, but it has no icon, and all i see is the standard totem
[05:19] <cycom> LadySerena: as in you never use X or as in it autoconfigures itself?
[05:19] <Reformer81> anachronoks: Sadly, that is sometimes the only solution.
[05:19] <cycom> Leefmc: uninstall totem-gstreamer
[05:19] <cycom> then run totem
[05:19] <Reformer81> skpl: System > Administration > Users & Groups
[05:19] <cycom> it's the standard totem interface, just with a different backend
[05:19] <LadySerena> I use X ... sometimes.  I just let it autodetect everything.  :3
[05:20] <Flannel> utnubu_user: internet sites visited would be stored in the webbrowser, you can clear them out through firefox.  I'm not sure about what sort of "other personal data", but which applications are used isn't stored, no.
[05:20] <anachronoks> okay.. thanks anyway
[05:20] <Reformer81> Leefmc: If you install totem-xine, it's basically just a pack of codecs.  The DVD should open in regular Totem now.
[05:20] <weternal> hey I'm trying to get compiz to do all of the cool stuff I've seen it do in videos
[05:20] <Leefmc> Reformer81: It didnt
[05:20] <cycom> LadySerena: I tend to have special things like ATI or NVidia drivers or wacom tablets or other crap :)
[05:20] <Leefmc> Reformer81: Now it does
[05:20] <Leefmc> Reformer81: Now that gstreamer is gone
[05:20] <cycom> Leefmc: besides, I like my wobbly windows.
[05:20] <anachronoks> weternal i believe you need to install the advanced desktop effect settings
[05:20] <pazsion> ok if i update this somehow from 7.04 to 8.04 will i beable to reconfigure xorg as well?
[05:20] <cycom> Leefmc: and you'll get all your fancy menus too! :)
[05:21] <tritium> utnubu_user: some programs store user data in dot-files or directories.  (e.g., pidgin stores account info in ~/.purple)
[05:21] <sk33t0r> anyone ever have to restart their pc for ubuntu to recognize a new usb device?
[05:21] <weternal> I just installed the advanced desktop effects settings
[05:21] <cycom> pazsion: is this a dell laptop that came with 7.04 preinstalled?
[05:21] <Leefmc> cycom: Hmm, it said it cant play it without libdvdcss, but there isn't a libdvdcss in the repo..
[05:21] <FuRom> How do I upgrade intltool to intltool 0.40.0 or higher?
[05:21] <LadySerena> I have my touchpad and a USB mouse that I sometimes connect, both are handled by moused
[05:21] <weternal> I'm not sure how to configure it thought
[05:21] <Leefmc> cycom: I have libdvdread3 installed, but thats obviously not working heh
[05:21] <LadySerena> Xorg doesn't know which is which, since it just reads /dev/sysmouse
[05:21] <cycom> Leefmc: you have to enable universe and multiverse I think.
[05:22] <Reformer81> Leefmc: libdvdcss is illegal to distribute.  Search google for it and you'll find instructions on how to install it.
[05:22] <xxploit> Leefmc: add the medibuntu repo
[05:22] <cycom> Leefmc: also check out medibuntu, since it has w32codecs.
[05:22] <tritium> !medibuntu | Leefmc
[05:22] <pazsion> lolz dell does that? damn dell....no it is fujitusu
[05:22] <anachronoks> weternal you go through the list of effects and turn the ones on you want to use. click the icon to configure them
[05:22] <pazsion> and i've installed it myself
[05:22] <cycom> pazsion: sells laptops with ubuntu preinstalled? yeah.
[05:22] <weternal> I've been playing with it for a bit but it's not doing the wobbly windows or the cool minimize effects or the cube desktop
[05:23] <Reformer81> weternal: install compizconfig-settings-manager
[05:23] <pazsion> cycom your right i do...i didn't know dell did, ubuntu is kinda new to me
[05:23] <utnubu_user> Flannel, I am asking this because the US is checking electronic equipment such as laptops, cellphones, digital cameras, etc at the airports or entry points. I do not want them looking at what I do on my pc, since sensitive data can be stolen...
[05:23] <Reformer81> weternal: That will give you access to all the settings of Compiz.
[05:23] <anachronoks> wobbly windows is under effects, did you try enabling it?
[05:23] <Reformer81> utnubu_user: The US does not turn it on to see what you've been doing.
[05:23] <cycom> pazsion: but yeah, I'd do dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg.  that should get you back to close to the defaults.  why did you change it in ther first place?
[05:23] <cycom> I'd get X working _before_ you upgrade to 8.04
[05:24] <weternal> yeah I'm trying to get the compizconfig settings manager to do some of the basic effects and it's not
[05:24] <Reformer81> weternal: Try setting everything to default.
[05:24] <pazsion> cycom so i could see what i was doing, and its always reconfiguered itself in the past
[05:24] <ganymede> is there a way to make SCIM input global and default? now, in gtk apps, i have to right click a text entry box and set the input method to SCIM, but i'd like the text input method to be SCIM always, on all applications
[05:24] <Reformer81> I use Ubuntu at home for my family desktop.  Is there any way to cause a user to automatically be logged off after a certain time of inactivity?
[05:24] <cycom> weternal: did you go into appearence and enable desktop effects already?
[05:24] <utnubu_user> Reformer81, Well, as far as I know they do it now. I saw it a few mins. ago at the news. "To avoid terrorist activities"
[05:25] <LadySerena> http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y237/LadySerena/laptop/panther_logos.jpg
[05:25] <LadySerena> Panther, my little laptop  <3
[05:25] <cycom> weternal: as in System->Preferences->Appearence?
[05:25] <modem_> utnubu_user, use LVM
[05:25] <Reformer81> utnubu_user: Haha... wouldn't surprise me.  Oh well... land of the free.
[05:25] <Reformer81> ...or something like that
[05:25] <weternal> when I try to do that it tells me that I can't use desktop effects
[05:25] <bringatowel> utnubu_user, if you want you can delete your whole /home/username directory and recreate each time you start, but it would be a hassle. have you considered encrypting the entire hard drive?
[05:25] <cycom> weternal: well that's why you're not getting them :)
[05:25] <weternal> I was wondering if I was using the right video card driver
[05:25] <cycom> weternal: what graphics card do you have?
[05:25] <weternal> ati 9000
[05:26] <cycom> weternal: do you have fglrx installed?
[05:26] <G3N0> whats the command to find out my chipset?
[05:26] <weternal> someone told me that should work with the compiz effects
[05:26] <weternal> um not sure
[05:26] <weternal> is that a proprietary driver
[05:26] <weternal> probably not
[05:26] <Reformer81> utnubu_user: You could also just password protect it.  Besides, I doubt the security personnel have ever seen Linux.
[05:26] <weternal> I tried installing the xorg driver
[05:26] <weternal> but that didn't change the problem
[05:26] <tritium> !enter | weternal
[05:27] <weternal> oh sorry
[05:27] <cycom> weternal: go into system->administration->hardware drivers
[05:27] <G3N0> how do i find out my chipset?
[05:27] <modem_> utnubu_user, id use LVM (aes-256) to encrypt the entire drive (swap space included)
[05:27] <cycom> G3N0: try lspci in terminal.
[05:27] <G3N0> ty
[05:27] <weternal> it says no proprietary drivers
[05:28] <Reformer81> weternal: Well, the ATI 9000 is a really old card......
[05:28] <sk33t0r> I've got this issue where I need to restart my pc when I plug in a knew usb device for ubuntu to recognize it.. any ideas how to get around this inconvenience ?
[05:28] <Reformer81> Then again, I get great Compiz effects with just onboard video :)
[05:28] <modem_> you can go all with that and keep /boot on a USB key so no one can boot without the key
[05:28] <grendal_prime> cycom: i have one of those
[05:28] <Reformer81> modem_: That works?
[05:28] <pazsion> cycom conflicting actions??? sudo dpkg -reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[05:28] <Reformer81> modem_: Only if you can boot from USB, of course, right?
[05:29] <|2-bits|> hey. I'm wondering if there is a way to configure network manager to run a specified script upon connection to a particular access point?
[05:29] <weternal> hmm should it be offering to download a driver for the ati 9000?
[05:29] <cycom> pazsion: dpkg-reconfigure. no space
[05:29] <cycom> grendal_prime: one of what?
[05:29] <modem_> Reformer81, yeah you need to be able to boot from it
[05:29] <pazsion> ah
[05:29] <Reformer81> weternal: Uhm, if that's what you have, then I'm sure that's what it should be downloading :P
[05:29] <Leefmc> ugh i give up loi. Some things ubuntu really needs to work on.. i cant even play this damn dvd :o
[05:29] <omkar> friends help me a bit I am in System-Admin-Printing I have to connect to a Shared Printer which is connected to a Windows XP machine on the Network
[05:29] <grendal_prime> 1420 dell with preinstalled ubuntu
[05:29] <cycom> grendal_prime: oh! :) I have an E1505 running intrepid :)
[05:29] <weternal> it's not offering to download anything thought
[05:29] <tritium> Leefmc: did you read the medibuntu info I sent you?
[05:29] <grendal_prime> 4 gigs of ram...it flat out is the bomb
[05:30] <Leefmc> Works fine in a old as hell dvd player at work, but it can't play in modern day ubuntu, argh :o.
[05:30] <grendal_prime> everthing worked on the thing out of the box.
[05:30] <Leefmc> tritium: I added it already, and installed libdvdcss2
[05:30] <cycom> weternal: try installing xserver-xorg-fglrx
[05:30] <tritium> Leefmc: so what's the problem?
[05:30] <weternal> do I have to add that to my repositories?
[05:30] <modem_> i got a dell d830 ubuntu works pretty well on it except for the nvidia driver
[05:30] <cycom> grendal_prime: I upgrade to intrepid to get evdev and stuff working right again.  Couldn't be happier.
[05:30] <G3N0> cycom: hey do you know how to find out my like driver id... like lspci didnt really show me what i wanteed im looking for my driver like my network card drivers
[05:30] <pazsion>  no spaces at all cycom or just at dpkg-reconfigure
[05:30] <Reformer81> Leefmc: What is the DVD?
[05:30] <Leefmc> tritium: It doesn't play, as i mentioned ;), but i gatta go to bed. I've spent hours fighting linux tonight haha, cant take anymore
[05:30] <weternal> or is that from the ubuntu repositories
[05:30] <cycom> weternal: well, search for it first in there.
[05:30] <grendal_prime> what is intrepid?
[05:31] <zzl> when is Ubuntu Netbook Remix coming out??
[05:31] <Reformer81> Leefmc: Is it original or a copy?
[05:31] <cycom> pazsion: just in dpkg-reconfigure
[05:31] <G3N0> grendal_prime: a car by dodge
[05:31] <Leefmc> Reformer81: Hot Fuzz, i wanted to finish it damnit :(
[05:31] <Leefmc> Reformer81: Original
[05:31] <tritium> Leefmc: I know what it doesn't do.  What _does_ it do when you try?
[05:31] <Reformer81> hmm
[05:31] <Flannel> zzl: Its out, just not in the official repos.  There's a PPA for it
[05:31] <Flannel> !intrepid | grendal_prime
[05:31] <wizard_2> what is normally in charge of checking and emailing users about quotas?
[05:31] <pazsion> thnk y
[05:31] <zzl> flannel: where can I get it?
[05:31] <grendal_prime> ahh ok
[05:31] <Reformer81> Leefmc: Personally, I've never been able to get Totem to play DVDs.  I've always used VLC for it.
[05:31] <G3N0> ﻿hey do you know how to find out my like driver id... like lspci didnt really show me what i wanteed im looking for my driver like my network card drivers
[05:31] <grendal_prime> im still running gutsy on this thing
[05:31] <Flannel> zzl: https://launchpad.net/netbook-remix
[05:31] <cycom> G3N0: you have to figure it out based on the output of lspci.  it'll show you the name of the card and stuff.
[05:31] <G3N0> okay ty
[05:32] <Leefmc> tritium: Heh sorry, just tired and being smart. My bad. totem-xine just stalls at the front of the dvd (some dvd legal message, etc)
[05:32] <tritium> G3N0: it hsould
[05:32] <grendal_prime> uses nvida drivers..and i simply cannot have this thing down for any amount of time right now.
[05:32] <cycom> G3N0: from there you have to do a little googling to find the right drivers, or search in synaptic
[05:32] <weternal> it's saying that it couldn't find package
[05:32] <pazsion> oh hell yes exactly what i need cycom thank you thank you  THAN YOU
[05:32] <tritium> Leefmc: well, come back tomorrow and we can work through it
[05:32] <cycom> Leefmc: did you get medibuntu?
[05:32] <cycom> pazsion: np dude.
[05:32] <cycom> pazsion: been in that boat a few times myself :)
[05:32] <Leefmc> cycom: Yes
[05:32] <cycom> I have literally three different laptops running ubuntu.
[05:32] <zzl> flannel: you can use it on laptops too right?
[05:32] <cycom> Leefmc: did you install libdvdcss?
[05:32] <Reformer81> Leefmc: And you install ubuntu-restricted-extras?
[05:32] <Leefmc> Reformer81: Heh, vlc hasn't done crap the whole time. It just opens up the dvd (it reads the title), then it just stops. No picture ever shown
[05:32] <Flannel> zzl: Yep, anywhere actually.
[05:33] <G3N0> cycom: 02:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 4965 AG or AGN Network Connection (rev 61). where would I look for that? google?
[05:33] <pazsion> ok now what driver sets would be compatable with fujitsu laptops?
[05:33] <Leefmc> Reformer81: I got libdvdcss, and iirc i got ubuntu restricted ages ago, but offhand i cant remember
[05:33] <pazsion> video drivers...
[05:33] <modem_> woohoo got my wifi led working
[05:33] <tritium> Leefmc: apt-cache policy ubuntu-restricted-extras, to tell for sure
[05:33] <Leefmc> Reformer81: Yes i do, after looking.
[05:33] <cycom> G3N0: it's an intel card? you sure it's not working already?
[05:33] <weternal> hmm so how should I go about getting a driver for the ati 900
[05:33] <cycom> G3N0: wireless drivers, yeah?
[05:33] <cycom> weternal: that's fglrx.
[05:33] <cycom> weternal: or radeonHD, though I'm not sure if that's in Hardy.
[05:33] <G3N0> cycom: im gonna test it out, like im trying to use kismet and it says i need to fill in the config
[05:33] <cycom> weternal: search synaptic for fglrx
[05:33] <Leefmc> This DVD is apparently better than Ubuntu. :D
[05:34] <Leefmc> Anyway
[05:34] <Leefmc> night
[05:34] <Leefmc> got work heh
[05:34] <Leefmc> thanks for tryin guysd
[05:34] <FloodBot3> Leefmc: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:34] <cycom> G3N0: oh, you have to edit /etc/kismet/kismet.conf
[05:34] <majid> hi
[05:34] <weternal> ok, searching...
[05:34] <G3N0> cycom: # source=sourcetype,interface,name[,initialchannel]
[05:34] <pazsion> peace lee
[05:34] <G3N0> cycom: im stuck there
[05:34] <cycom> G3N0: that's a little beyond the scope of this channel :)
[05:34] <Leefmc> FloodBot3: You make ubuntu work on simple stuff, and i'll stop flooding! (Yes i know its a bot heh)
[05:34] <G3N0> cycom: talk in private :)
[05:34] <Leefmc> lates
[05:35] <cycom> G3N0: well, better for everyone to learn, right?
[05:35] <AdrianStrays> How do I mount a flashcard? I stick it in but it doesn't appear anywhere?
[05:35] <majid> who can help me
[05:35] <shaozuozhen> ﻿ weternal: hey,how is it going?
[05:35] <Reformer81> Can someone explain why print shops claim to have never seen an ODT or ODS file? ;)
[05:35] <G3N0> cycom: okay but yeah im stuck there: # source=sourcetype,interface,name[,initialchannel]
[05:35] <cycom> G3N0: you said it's a 4965? do you know what driver it uses?
[05:35] <Reformer81> AdrianStrays: Be sure to look under the "Places" menu... it may not actually place an icon onyour desktop for it.
[05:35] <G3N0> G3N0: nooooooo idea thats why i was looking in the first place
[05:36] <G3N0> cycom: *
[05:36] <Flannel> Reformer81: Because most print shops don't deal with .doc files either.
[05:36] <majid> I have acer 4315 ubuntu  but no modem
[05:36] <cycom> G3N0: try checking lsmod.
[05:36] <arrrghhh> hey my machine is locking up hardcore - but i don't get see anything in /var/log/messages?
[05:36] <weternal> what do I do after this download is complete
[05:36] <AdrianStrays> reformer81, its not there either
[05:36] <cycom> G3N0: for example, lsmod | grep 4965
[05:36] <hiptobecubic> is there a way to start a terminal with certain window dimensions and 'always on top' ?
[05:36] <pazsion> vesa should work with any computer right??? for a video driver?
[05:36] <cycom> pazsion: yeah
[05:36] <Xcerca> flash in firefox is different with x64 right ?
[05:36] <PCP> Anyone here have an experience with svn
[05:36] <pazsion> atleast untill i find out what is actually in this thing
[05:36] <Xcerca> i'm trying to install it
[05:36] <Flannel> !anyone | PCP
[05:36] <Reformer81> Flannel: Hmm.. they can open Microsoft formats just fine.
[05:37] <G3N0> cycom: iwlwifi_mac80211      219108  1 iwl4965
[05:37] <AdrianStrays> Reformer81: Do you have any idea whats wrong?
[05:37] <Reformer81> I use Ubuntu at home for my family desktop.  Is there any way to cause a user to automatically be logged off after a certain time of inactivity?
[05:37] <cycom> G3N0: bingo
[05:37] <G3N0> cycom: OR? cfg80211               15112  1 iwlwifi_mac80211
[05:37] <cycom> ok, now what interface is your wireless card?
[05:37] <cycom> no, iwl4965 is the driver.
[05:37] <Reformer81> AdrianStrays: Take the drive out.  Then reinsert it.  Then type 'dmesg' in the terminal.  The last lines SHOULD say something about the USB drive.
[05:38] <weternal> do I want do disable any other drivers I might have running my video card
[05:38] <G3N0> cycom: okay i gotchya. i have no idea its built into mi laptopo
[05:38] <LadySerena> Intel Wireless should be iwi0 or iw0
[05:38] <cycom> G3N0: try typing iwconfig
[05:38] <AdrianStrays> Reformer81: Its not a drive, the laptop has a built in slot for it.
[05:38] <fasttrack> hy all, i just found a small and easy hack that makes installing ies4linux more comfortable
[05:38] <sleepster> anyone know when that ubuntu server xen kernel issue will be fixed?
[05:38] <cycom> G3N0: the one that doesn't have 'no wireless extensions' is likely the interface.
[05:38] <G3N0> cycom: there's 3 of them :o
[05:38] <Reformer81> AdrianStrays: But it's actually still a drive (much like a CD-ROM drive or floppy drive... this happens to be a flash drive) :)
[05:38] <cycom> LadySerena: mine is wlan0, so you can't really be sure.
[05:38] <cycom> G3N0: what are they called?
[05:39] <Reformer81> fasttrack: Blog it :)
[05:39] <zzl> is there linux that is compatible with microsoft programs without the use of wine??
[05:39] <fasttrack> most users face problem that the installation gets corrupt most of the times. and many get tired restarting it.
[05:39] <G3N0> cycom: wlan0    my bad theres only one
[05:39] <LadySerena> wireless on my laptop is zyd0
[05:39] <AdrianStrays> Reformer81: I don't see it as a drive under Computer either.
[05:39] <cycom> G3N0: ok, so that's the second section.
[05:39] <Reformer81> zzl: Short answer, no.  Long answer, use OpenOffice.org.
[05:39] <fasttrack> its nothing great. just a one line bash script
[05:39] <cycom> G3N0: the third section is just what you want to call it in kismet
[05:39] <tritium> LadySerena: that doesn't sound like ubuntu.
[05:39] <zzl> reformer81:what?
[05:39] <zzl> is there linux that is compatible with microsoft programs without the use of wine??
[05:39] <Reformer81> AdrianStrays: What did dmesg say?  The last couple lines after you inserted it.
[05:39] <G3N0> cycom: whats the first?
[05:39] <zzl> such as exe files
[05:39] <Reformer81> !repeat | zzl
[05:39] <Xcerca> what do i have to install to watch youtube videos ?  flash right , is there anything special for x64 versions ?
[05:39] <cycom> G3N0: so figure... source = iwl4965, wlan0, Intel
[05:40] <cycom> G3N0: Intel is just a random name I picked.
[05:40] <favro>  how come I can't profile the boot sequence in hardy like I could in gutsy/feisty/edgy/dapper?
[05:40] <G3N0> cycom: and the iwl4965 is what again? (trying to learn)
[05:40] <fasttrack> i'll paste it here. but i assume most already may have made it for themselves..
[05:40] <cycom> G3N0: keep in mind, this will cause your wireless connection to drop.
[05:40] <arrrghhh> i have a headless system that is locking up hardcore - won't respond to pings, and every service just stops.  i hook a monitor up to it, and the montior never goes out of low-power mode.  where can i check the problem?  i don't see anything in /var/log/messages
[05:40] <Reformer81> zzl: I'm trying to help you.  There are absolutely ZERO Linux distibutions that will run an .EXE file without using wine.
[05:40] <weternal> ok so I downloaded the fglrs driver
[05:40] <fasttrack> zzl: try react os
[05:40] <cycom> G3N0: it's the driver for that card. the kernel module.
[05:40] <Reformer81> zzl: What are you trying to do?
[05:40] <Flannel> arrrghhh: hook up a keyboard and REISUB?
[05:40] <G3N0> cycom: im wired at the moment. okay i understand
[05:40] <cycom> G3N0: your card is an intel 4965, right?
[05:40] <zzl> run an exe file on linux
[05:40] <G3N0> cycom: yeah
[05:40] <cycom> G3N0: so it uses a module (driver) named iwl4965.
[05:41] <AdrianStrays> Reformer81: Something about start kernel and boot options, it doesn't look related.  Also, I noticed further up it said Firefox was "tainted" what does that mean?
[05:41] <weternal> how do I get the driver I installed to work
[05:41] <chuy_max> hey guys, how can I search for files that contain "STRING" using console?
[05:41] <G3N0> cycom: i understand thanks for teaching me.. lets see what i else i dont get :)
[05:41] <weternal> or is it already working?
[05:41] <z_> sudo gedit /etc/laptop-mode/laptop-mode.conf - can you say something smart about it?
[05:41] <cycom> G3N0: My laptop has an Intel 3945, so I use iwl3945. :)
[05:41] <arrrghhh> Flannel, well when i power it off and back on, it works great.  no interference by me at all.
[05:41] <hbalint> so, can someone help me?
[05:41] <cycom> G3N0: no problem dude :) It's why I hang out here.
[05:41] <AdrianStrays> Refomer81:Shall I do a paste bin?
[05:41] <fasttrack> zzl : use vmware, xen..or those things to boot an windows inmage within linux... or have a look at reactos... make it run in virtualised env
[05:41] <shaozuozhen> ﻿ weternal: restart the X window???
[05:41] <weternal> what's the x window?
[05:42] <sleepster> anyone know when that ubuntu server xen kernel issue will be fixed?
[05:42] <Reformer81> AdrianStrays: No idea.  But yeah, pastebin the last few lines of the dmesg output.  Remember, remove the flash disc and then run dmesg RIGHT AFTER plugging it back in.
[05:42] <LadySerena> sleepster, take a look at the mailing lists?
[05:42] <cycom> G3N0: at some point you should try to install gentoo (preferably in a virtual machine) to learn a bit more about the Linux Kernel and how modules work.  I suggest it merely because it makes you do most things manually, and teaches you a lot of linux commands the hard (memorable) way.
[05:42] <AdrianStrays> !pastebin
[05:42] <seanliu> how to restart x window
[05:42] <fasttrack> can i paste the 3 line bash script here? will it be useful for anyone? or will i be flooding unneccessarily?
[05:42] <hbalint> I tried to use virtualbox. it uses the host audio, but it can't use the host video
[05:42] <Flannel> fasttrack: Just use pastebin
[05:43] <weternal> ok so I'm not sure how to proceed from here
[05:43] <fasttrack> k
[05:43] <zzl> fasttrack: can you install reactos? or just live cd like?
[05:43] <shaozuozhen> ﻿ weternal:  press "ctrl+alt+backspace" to restart X window
[05:43] <Reformer81> hbalint: Yeah, virtualization can't yet use accelerated video cards.
[05:43] <seanliu> how can i download QQ?
[05:43] <Flannel> seanliu: pidgin can do QQ
[05:43] <LadySerena> LAWL
[05:43] <Reformer81> zzl: ReactOS does not have a live cd... go to www.reactos.com to learn more (it is NOT Linux, however)
[05:44] <shaozuozhen> ﻿seanliu:  surf this : www.qq.com to download QQ4Linux
[05:44] <hbalint> but how can I get the x300 to work fine on linux?, amnd in wine?
[05:44] <LadySerena> ReactOS tries to replace Failows with some thing that fails less
[05:44] <AdrianStrays> Reformer81: Here you go: http://paste.ubuntu.com/39009/
[05:44] <weternal> ok so I restarted the x window
[05:44] <shaozuozhen> ﻿ weternal :how is it going?
[05:45] <arrrghhh> Flannel, i just want to figure out why the system is locking up...
[05:45] <weternal> but the desktop appearance manager is still telling me that I can't enable the compiz effects
[05:45] <Reformer81> AdrianStrays: Looks like you have several issues... way  beyond my knowledge.  Sorry.
[05:45] <Flannel> arrrghhh: The monitor never comes out of power saving mode even while booting?
[05:45] <hbalint> or should I reconfigure x? or what should I try?
[05:45] <Theaxiom> Can ubuntu see vista NTFS partitions and be able to read/write to them?
[05:45] <favro> how do I profile the boot sequence in hardy?
[05:45] <tritium> Theaxiom: yes.
[05:45] <Flannel> favro: bootchart
[05:45] <Theaxiom> tritium, thanks
[05:45] <Xcerca> how can i find out which ubuntu i have ... hardy/dapper...... ?
[05:45] <arrrghhh> Flannel, it's fine once i reboot it.  but i want to track down the source of the lockup.  it's happened 2x now.
[05:46] <shaozuozhen> ﻿weternal: sorry I have no idea...
[05:46] <tritium> Xcerca: lsb_release -a
[05:46] <weternal> is this just a case of I should get a newer video card that's compatible with ubuntu
[05:46] <Flannel> arrrghhh: Does it happen quickly or take a while?
[05:46] <weternal> because I've got an open minipci slot
[05:46] <Xcerca> ﻿tritium thanks
[05:46] <Theaxiom> does the nvidia geforce 8800GTX work great in ubuntu?
[05:46] <arrrghhh> Flannel, usually takes a while.
[05:46] <hbalint> because it is strange,m, that the linux can use my card to work with compiz, and get some effects, but
[05:46] <Reformer81> weternal: No.  There's no need to get a new card.
[05:47] <Reformer81> weternal: You just need to figure out why yours isn't working.  Can you not even start Ubuntu?  Is that the issue?
[05:47] <Flannel> arrrghhh: Mmmm, well, if there are no logs being written successfully to disk, you might have to rely on the monitor
[05:47] <weternal> no, ubuntu is working fine, I'm just not able to get the visual effects that I'd like from compiz
[05:47] <Xcerca> to watch you tube movies you need flash right ?
[05:48] <weternal> It's not a huge problem if the ati 9000 doesn't support compiz
[05:48] <shaozuozhen> ﻿weternal:that's the same problem with my friend's
[05:48] <arrrghhh> !multiverse | Xcerca
[05:48] <chuy_max> weternal, chances are your video card is not configured properly
[05:48] <arrrghhh> er
[05:48] <weternal> ok
[05:48] <arrrghhh> !medibuntu | Xcerca
[05:49] <bullgard4> Apparently in Gutsy there was an executable program hal-device-manager. What did it replace in Hardy?
[05:49] <weternal> so how do I reconfigure my video card properly?
[05:49] <fasttrack> http://paste.ubuntu.com/39010/
[05:49] <fasttrack> its very silly... but it works
[05:49] <pazsion> word i'm in ubuntu using atirage pro-m and the sound works awesome +D
[05:49] <Reformer81> weternal: First, run 'glxgears' in a terminal.  Does that work?
[05:50] <arrrghhh> weternal, well depends, but probably dpg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:50] <fasttrack> without this... its a huge pain to install and restart the installer everytime.... the fact that they already use wget and resumes it..is greatly helpful
[05:50] <pazsion> and the touchscrren works this is bad booty
[05:50] <weternal> aarrrhg yes the gears work
[05:50] <favro> Flannel: thnx - bootchart gives a pic of the boot sequence - normally I press e, down, e  at grub to edit the kernel line and add "profile" at the end to reprofile the boot sequence but in hardys' kernels it doesn't work
[05:51] <fasttrack> although  its a clumsy solution.. i just emailed the author to try include something(may be much better).. in thier next releases..
[05:51] <windio00> how do i enter a hex WEP in unbuntu setup?
[05:51] <weternal> this was the response in the terminal from glxgears755 frames in 5.0 seconds = 150.971 FPS
[05:51] <weternal> 683 frames in 5.1 seconds = 133.834 FPS
[05:51] <weternal> 740 frames in 5.1 seconds = 145.027 FPS
[05:51] <weternal> 720 frames in 5.1 seconds = 141.053 FPS
[05:51] <weternal> 680 frames in 5.0 seconds = 135.773 FPS
[05:51] <weternal> 720 frames in 5.1 seconds = 141.162 FPS
[05:51] <FloodBot3> weternal: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:52] <weternal> 700 frames in 5.1 seconds = 138.069 FPS
[05:52] <windio00> it says nnnn-nnnn-nn
[05:52] <windio00> but should it be ascii ?
[05:52] <windio00> or hex?
[05:52] <chuy_max> weternal: glxinfo |grep irect
[05:53] <fasttrack> windio00: try like this xxyyzz..etc
[05:53] <fasttrack> without any spaces or "other charatcers". they need no delimitations..
[05:53] <windio00> fasttrack, so like 5c3a4523?
[05:53] <fasttrack> yeah
[05:53] <fasttrack> but
[05:53] <windio00> fasttrack, didnt work
[05:53] <fasttrack> it really depends on the app
[05:54] <fasttrack> the application
[05:54] <fasttrack> normally if its a wireless.. they dont usually ask for hex values
[05:54] <rubydiamond> Hi ppl
[05:54] <windio00> fasttrack, it is the debian alternate installer for ubuntu
[05:54] <fasttrack> oh..
[05:54] <weternal> chuy max it's saying direct rendering: no.  open gl renderer string: mesa glx indirect
[05:54] <favro> Flannel: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/8301/ - I've been doing it since dapper...
[05:54] <rubydiamond> how to share folders between virtual box windows and my ubuntu gutsy
[05:54] <fasttrack> may be they ask the hardware address?
[05:55] <fasttrack> windio00: try using ":" as demarcation
[05:55] <fasttrack> u tried that?
[05:55] <fasttrack> like the mac addresses
[05:55] <nagendra2008> Please help me in fixing sound problems
[05:56] <weternal> so what do I do with that information?
[05:56] <sontek> Hey, I want to manage a video library in one x server but have it play the videos in the other x server

[05:57] <Flannel> ogzy: add it to your fstab
[05:57] <damien> awsome thanks
[05:57] <chuy_max> weternal, you probably want to install ati proprietary driver for direct rendering
[05:57] <damien> i just wasnt sure because im used to windows ,
[05:57] <weternal> ok
[05:57] <damien> cheers for the help catchee
[05:57] <jimdandy> whatsup ! Hey can anyone help me with this? I built netatalk from source with ssl passwords on my ubuntu-desktop machine, but couldn't build it on my ubuntu-server machine.
[05:57] <Flannel> !swap | ogzy
[05:57] <weternal> so would that be in synaptic?
[05:58] <clp> how to search keywords "clean_data" and replace it with "cleaned_data" for all .py files in a directory?
[05:58] <chuy_max> weternal, follow the wiki instructions
[05:58] <Flannel> weternal: restricted drivers manager would be the easiest way
[05:58] <ogzy> Flannel, ok let me check my fstab
[05:58] <chuy_max> !ati > weternal
[05:58] <fasttrack> guys.. am so happy... this ies4linux.. now installed without any attention frm me... i had been pissed with it since last 2 days... as i had to restart manually.. for upteenth time..
[05:58] <clp> Who can help me?
[05:58] <clp> how to search keywords "clean_data" and replace it with "cleaned_data" for all .py files in a directory?
[05:58] <ogzy> Flannel, you are right it is not added
[05:58] <chuy_max> clp, use sed
[05:58] <arrrghhh> clp, there's a "bulk rename" included with thunar.  or you can do it the cli way, which some find more difficult
[05:59] <clp> not to rename file name,while to replace its content
[05:59] <clp> sed, have a try
[05:59] <chuy_max> clp http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sed
[05:59] <arrrghhh> ah
[06:00] <arrrghhh> yes use sed :P
[06:00] <clp> thanks
[06:00] <bullgard4> Apparently in Gutsy there was an executable program hal-device-manager. What did it replace in Hardy?
[06:01] <joseph_> hello
[06:01] <chuy_max> clp, be aware that you have to redirect output to auxiliary files, if you redirect output of sed to the file you are reading from, you will have undesired behavior
[06:01] <bobertdos> joseph_: Hello, how may we help you?
[06:01] <nagendra2008> could anyone please help fix my sound problems

I thought this should open up Gnome's file explorer to the folder the file was saved in.
[06:09] <Forgott3n`_> quick question chums, if I ran "# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hdb" and hdb was 20GB... Aprox. how long would it take to complete?
[06:09] <bullgard4> danbhfive: Unfriendly guy.
[06:09] <Forgott3n`_> or how do I check how far along it is?
[06:09] <arrrghhh> Forgott3n`_, depends on your hardware
[06:10] <Forgott3n`_> 2.4GHz Intel Celeron D, 1GB Ram
[06:10] <Bhavesh> Forgott3n`_ i just did that the other day.. using bs=1M it took 800 seconds +/-
[06:10] <Flannel> Forgott3n`_: You might look into shred in the future.
[06:10] <arrrghhh> and you needed to probably put a -v or something for verbose :P Forgott3n`_
[06:10] <Scorp_> NICK Scorp
[06:10] <Forgott3n`_> arrrghhh: dd doesn't have -v
[06:10] <arrrghhh> Forgott3n`_, no verbose switch?
[06:10] <arrrghhh> at all?
[06:10] <zzl> how do i install vmware in kubuntu
[06:10] <Forgott3n`_> nope
[06:11] <Bhavesh> Forgott3n`_ it should take about 800 seconds.. 14 mins or so
[06:11] <Forgott3n`_> I'm in a install DVD and its complaining about a GPT existing
[06:11] <Forgott3n`_> fdisk won't kill it
[06:11] <arrrghhh> zzl, there's a open-source edition in the repo's and closed-source binaries on their website.
[06:11] <Forgott3n`_> I need to completely nuke this drive before I can continue my installation
[06:11] <arrrghhh> zzl, oh sorry i was referring to virtualbox not vmware...
[06:12] <zzl> well, are they the same?
[06:12] <arrrghhh> zzl, yes and no.  they do the same thing, but they are far from "the same"
[06:12] <zzl> which do you prefer?
[06:12] <Bhavesh> Forgott3n`_ you got the right idea.. dd command will work, that's what i ended up doing to two of the drives trying to troubleshoot some installation issue
[06:12] <zzl> and how do you install
[06:12] <arrrghhh> zzl, personnally i use virtualbox.  go to virtualbox.org and download a .deb.  easy peasy.
[06:13] <dougb> is anyone having problems with full screen video with flash videos, and nvidia graphics cards?
[06:13] <Forgott3n`_> Bhavesh: I'm just annoyed that fdisk won't even try to erase a GPT partition table
[06:13] <zzl> i want to run windows inside kubuntu, that is possible right?
[06:13] <arrrghhh> dougb, flash sucks in general, no matter the card.
[06:13] <surger> whats up
[06:13] <dougb> zzl: yes
[06:13] <zzl> using virtualbox
[06:13] <arrrghhh> zzl, yes i do it all the time.
[06:13] <dougb> arrrghhh: so that's a no?
[06:13] <dougb> i mean a yes
[06:13] <Forgott3n`_> this box has no CD-ROM Drive... so I'm using thumbdrives to install :P
[06:14] <Bhavesh> Forgott3n`_ sux.. i had other issues, grub wouldn't install, dmraid woudln't work, it worked on another drive installed from same CD
[06:14] <Forgott3n`_> linux will be the death of me :)
[06:14] <arrrghhh> dougb, yea i have seen choppiness on all sorts of cards/systems.  the windows implementation *seems* to work better, but that doesn't surprise me.  adobe doesn't seem to give a crap about linux.
[06:14] <Dillo_of_Faeo> heh, I just came back from afk, I though "forgott3n" was some new program I'd never heard of
[06:14] <zzl> arrrghhh: so I download the deb package from virtualbox.org, install, and then i install windows in the virtualbox?
[06:14] <zzl> arrrghhh: sorry for bugging you lots
[06:14] <Ayabara> does aticonfig alter other things than xorg.conf?
[06:15] <ajhtiredwolf> zzl,  did you install the oes version already?
[06:15] <arrrghhh> zzl, essentially.  i'd read the documentation on their site, it's very good.
[06:15] <Bhavesh> Dillo_of_Faeo wb ;)
[06:15] <Fredd> any where i could find a driver for lexmark x2580?
[06:15] <dougb> yeah arrrghhh, i was basically checking to see if they've fixed the problem yet
[06:15] <dougb> guess not
[06:15] <kangyul> I have a question, I want to use vlc player to open the address:udp://@[ff18::0101:4]:8000, but it hints that: the firefox was not associated with any applications, I want to know how to deal with this.
[06:16] <arrrghhh> dougb, i keep hoping gnash or something like that (open-source) will get better, but it's sloooow progress.
[06:16] <axisr9> if my laptop runs linux, and is connected to a wireless access point using its built in wireless card.. is it possible to bridge the laptops NETWORK CARD (eth0) with the wireless card so that i can plug in a cat5 cable in my laptops eth0 port and then run it into a router in my bedroom? the router would feed into a desktop machine.
[06:16] <arrrghhh> kangyul, well open the stream with vlc, not firefox...
[06:16] <axisr9> so i just want to be able to bridge the wireless card and the network card in the laptop, running ubuntu linux
[06:16] <ogzy> İ was checking the files of an icon theme and wondering which one is the picture of the gnome startup icon
[06:16] <bullgard4> Where can I find a manual for hal-device?
[06:16] <axisr9> so that the eth0 port will have internet as well
[06:16] <zzl> arrrghhh: one more question,virtualbox almost has the same functionality as wine and can browse the internet in virtualbox as well?
[06:17] <arrrghhh> axisr9, stealing wifi and sharing it with a desktop?  lol
[06:17] <axisr9> no the wireless router is downstairs
[06:17] <arrrghhh> zzl, wine is COMPLETELY different.
[06:17] <axisr9> i cant run a cat5 cable upstairs
[06:17] <chuy_max> axisr9, never tried it with a router, but you can with a desktop directly connected to the laptop
[06:17] <axisr9> so i use my laptop to get online from the bedroom
[06:17] <Bhavesh> axisr9 basically you want to make your laptop to act like a gateway for your desktop
[06:17] <kangyul> ﻿arrrghhh: can you tell me how to do? Thanks
[06:17] <axisr9> Bhavesh yea, i run windows xp on the laptop and it works just fine. I go into network connections, and i highlight the wireless and the network card and i right click and click 'BRIDGE'
[06:18] <axisr9> and it works instantly
[06:18] <axisr9> but i want to do that in linux
[06:18] <chuy_max> axisr9, you need a crossed utp5
[06:18] <Forgott3n`> dum de duumm deee
[06:18] <Forgott3n`> dd working away
[06:18] <arrrghhh> kangyul, uh open vlc, click file -> open stream, put in the credentials.
[06:18] <Forgott3n`> I didn't set the bs= to anything
[06:18] <Bhavesh> axisr9 it's not too complicated, listen to chuy_max
[06:18] <Realcoolguy> charging pin on my laptop, completely destroyed and useless :(
[06:18] <Forgott3n`> will that hinder the speed?
[06:19] <Bhavesh> Forgott3n` i don't know what all the options means i just copied command from internet but it did zero out the drive
[06:19] <ogzy> i mean the ubuntu logo that is at the tray that we click and see the menu, i am trying to put another pic instead of that logo, how can i do it?
[06:19] <joeKr> Reminds me of a comedian I heard: "The internet is down at my house. I think my neighbor forgot to pay his cable bill. That's so inconsiderate of him."
[06:19] <chuy_max> lol
[06:19] <Bhavesh> joeKr heheh good one
[06:19] <arrrghhh> so if this box locks up again, what should i check when it reboots?  /var/log/messages had no errors when i checked it after the last lockup.
[06:19] <axisr9> i dont need any cables or anything. i just want it so that the eth0 port will share the wireless internet
[06:19] <axisr9> so if i plug something in the eth0 port
[06:19] <axisr9> it will work like it does in windows
[06:19] <axisr9> i have any/all necessary cables in my room
[06:20] <bazhang> !ics
[06:20] <weternal> oh hey so thanks I got it working
[06:20] <arrrghhh> axisr9, remember linux is not windows, so don't expect it "to work like it does windows"
[06:20] <weternal> compiz
[06:20] <axisr9> arrrghhh i know
[06:20] <Bhavesh> axisr9 normally when you connect 2 ethernet devices , you need a cross over cable
[06:20] <Dillo_of_Faeo> !alsa
[06:20] <Bhavesh> arr i mean NIC
[06:20] <arrrghhh> axisr9, and i was gonna suggest firestarter lol
[06:20] <axisr9> but this isnt two nics
[06:20] <Dillo_of_Faeo> !bring me a cake
[06:20] <Dillo_of_Faeo> aww :(
[06:20] <arrrghhh> lol
[06:20] <Bhavesh> axisr9 well you got on on desktop and one on laptop
[06:21] <joeKr> Any printer wizards about? On Ubuntu 8.04 I've installed a Panasonic KX-P4400 (It recommended an HP LaserJet 2 driver) and when I print, it's busy for 3 seconds, the job shows complete, all looks good, but nothing ever comes out. Printer remains silent. Test pages are the same. Print to PDF file is working. Any Ideas?
[06:21] <bazhang> Dillo_of_Faeo, please /msg ubottu for fun if you wish
[06:21] <axisr9> i just want the wireless card built into the laptop to share the internet with the network card built into the laptop
[06:21] <Bhavesh> axisr9 here's how it would look WirelessAP -> laptop -> desktop
[06:21] <axisr9> ok
[06:22] <Bhavesh> axisr9 so wireless AP -> laptop (wireless) from laptop -> desktop wired connection
[06:22] <arrrghhh> axisr9, you can bridge connections manually with ifconfig i believe
[06:23] <kangyul> ﻿arrrghhh: but it is not a file ,it is something like a P2p net tv , if the address begins with mms:..... it can open easily with a click on it, but it begins with udp:... the firefox gave a info that the protocal udp wasn't associated with any applications, I don't know how todo
[06:23] <Ayabara> I've been running bigdesktop with an ati card, but all of a sudden it has stopped working..
[06:23] <axisr9> arrrghhh ok
[06:23] <Ayabara> any idea how I can diagnose this?
[06:23] <zzl> arrrghhh: wait, say i have the xp cd, I can just use it to install on virtualbox, or do I need to turn it into an .iso again/
[06:24] <arrrghhh> kangyul, did you go to open stream?
[06:24] <arrrghhh> zzl, you can just install it on virtualbox OR use iso.  doesn't matter.
[06:24] <zzl> thanks again
[06:24] <zzl> no more questions
[06:25] <kangyul> ﻿arrrghhh:﻿ I don't know how to, it is a web of our school,  http://vod.nuaa.edu.cn/t/tv.html

[06:26] <Forgott3n`> I think thats two bad drives
[06:26] <Forgott3n`> now

[06:27] <Bhavesh> Forgott3n` that's ok i just done the same thing.. luckily a drive died before i put any important info on it
[06:27] <arrrghhh> axisr9, i've never done it.  i'm not sure how firestarter's implementation does it, but i'd start there.  i KNOW there's a way to do it with ifconfig, but i wouldn't be able to walk u thru that...

[06:41] <dubby> its probably screen 2
[06:42] <ValentineX> @Dillo i dont know much, how to use scanmodem?
[06:42] <ripps> dubby: I can get xv video playing on the tv, but I only get the upper left corner of the video. Doesn't displayconfig-gtk screw up your xorg.conf?
[06:42] <levander> Is real player available in any of the repositories?
[06:43] <j800r> hey, is there anyway to bring one of the gnome panels back after removing it?
[06:43] <salmon> question, so i know it's lame, but im trying to get myspace im to work through pigeon and it keeps comeing up with an error message telling me my password is incorect. i know the password is right so has anyone else experienced this or know what to do??
[06:43] <dubby> hmm screw it up ? its possible, best thing you could probably do is edit xorg.conf yourself
[06:43] <levander> Is real player available in any of the repositories?
[06:43] <dubby> back it up and try
[06:43] <levander> If someone already answered, I got disconnected and came back.
[06:44] <zzl> can virtualbox be used to emulate pc games?
[06:44] <j800r> salmon, myspace im will only accept certain length passwords. change your password to something shorter and try again
[06:44] <bazhang> levander, you have to get it from their site
[06:45] <bazhang> zzl, no 3d in vbox
[06:45] <zzl> :(
[06:45] <ValentineX> haha
[06:45] <j800r> anyone? :|
[06:45] <levander> zzl: I don't think so because of the way they do virtualization.  virtualbox doesn't access your real graphics card.  I creates a "fake" one (with limited capabilities) and then processes the commands sent to the fake one on the real one.
[06:45] <zzl> oh yeah, and can you save the operating systems you already loaded in VB once before?
[06:46] <zzl> what about VMware?
[06:46] <levander> bazhang: Any idea why it's not in the repositories?  Like at least medibuntu?
[06:46] <zzl> same thing levander?
[06:46] <bazhang> levander, dont know why
[06:46] <levander> zzl: I don't understand the question.
[06:46] <levander> bazhang: Thanks.
[06:46] <zzl> say I mounted xp in Virtualbox right
[06:46] <yao_ziyua1> there isn't any updated packages for 8.04 recently, right?
[06:47] <zzl> I shutdown the pc and loaded VB the next day. is the os i mounted stiill going to be on there for me to load?
[06:47] <bazhang> yao_ziyua1, not the last couple of days no
[06:47] <bazhang> zzl, sure
[06:48] <levander> zzl: I think I know what you're asking.  You can't just "mount" a partition that contains an XP install.  You have to create a special file on your Ubuntu (or host OS) partition.  Virtualbox loads that file as a filesystem and will install Windows (or any OS) on inside that file.  It just looks like a binary file outside VirtualBox.  Inside VirtualBox, it looks like your root drive for that OS.
[06:48] <levander> zzl: You get it?
[06:49] <zzl> ohh I get it
[06:49] <levander> zzl: I think there was a way to run pre-existing Windows installs inside VirtualBox, but it wasn't 100% stable and it was kind of a hack and you had to follow special instructions.
[06:49] <evild_> hmmm
[06:49] <Forgott3n`> alright guys
[06:49] <zzl> alright, thanks levander
[06:49] <levander> zzl: Don't ask so many questions.  Just dive in and try it.
[06:49] <zzl> you were very helpful
[06:49] <Forgott3n`> heres a puzzle
[06:49] <hambone> hello
[06:49] <levander> zzl: Most times, it's easier to learn by getting your hands dirty.
[06:49] <zzl> thanks levander
[06:49] <Forgott3n`> what happens when the GRUB bootloader sits there like a lump?
[06:50] <Forgott3n`> this is exactly what I see: "GRUB _"
[06:50] <Forgott3n`> with _ flashing
[06:50] <levander> zzl: Why not use KVM that's pretty much standard on Ubuntu?
[06:50] <Ububegin> whats the diff between edubuntu and ubuntu... I mean if I install the classroom applications in ubuntu does it become like edubuntu also..
[06:50] <zzl> let me check that out
[06:51] <levander> zzl: Ubuntu's done at least some work (and I think they intend to do more) to integrate KVM into their stuff.  But, an advantage of virtualbox is that it works on multiple host OS's:  Mac, Windows, Solaris, and Linux.

[06:55] <jimdandy> ValentineX, do you mean for use with other systems (such as windows), or in a Linux format? A vfat filesystem is what a usb stick usually comes with. How you create it should depend on the size of the stick (in MB/GB).

[06:57] <kcman1> yeah i have bchunk but i am not sure how to use it
[06:57] <lwizardl> i remember using a dos program called binchuck
[06:57] <smcguinness_> i am attempting to add a OS to grub, but can't get the correct (hd#,#) right
[06:57] <Slart> kcman1: bchunk oldfile.bin oldfile.cue newiso
[06:57] <smcguinness_> im using gparted and it shows 3 partitions
[06:57] <kcman1> Slart really that simple?
[06:58] <jimdandy> ValentineX, do you have any files on it you need? You should back them up before formatting.
[06:58] <Slart> kcman1: really that simple =)
[06:58] <kcman1> Slart do i have to be in the dir to run the command?
[06:58] <kcman1> just spray it on?
[06:58] <Achoth> Hello. I recently tried installing Vista to dual boot with XP & Ubuntu. After the installation I restored GRUB, and can start Vista & Ubuntu. However, when I choose XP, I just get an error message telling me I "can't mount the selected partition". Any ideas?
[06:58] <Slart> kcman1: yes.. you have to be in the folder where the bin and cue is located
[06:59] <smcguinness_> in gparted how do i tell what i need to put in the menu.lst
[06:59] <smcguinness_> i see "/dev/sda1"
[06:59] <smcguinness_> "/dev/sda2"
[06:59] <smcguinness_> and "/dev/sda3"
[06:59] <Slart> kcman1: well.. you could do "bchunk /home/kcman1/awesomefile.bin /home/kcman1/awesomefile.cue awesomeiso".. but it's easier if you're in the right folder
[06:59] <ValentineX> @jimdandy no i dont have any
[06:59] <Achoth> smcguinness_: /dev/sda1" is "(hd0,0)" in grub
[07:00] <Achoth> smcguinness_: /dev/sda2" is "(hd0,1)" in grub and so on
[07:00] <ValentineX> @jimdandy i am ready to format. for fat32 so it canbe used both for linux and windos
[07:00] <kcman1> Slart thanks will try
[07:00] <smcguinness_> Achoth: ok
[07:00] <Forgott3n`> Achoth: I can only assume the location of XP has been changed
[07:00] <smcguinness_> thanks
[07:00] <Forgott3n`> aka  (hd0,0) to (hd0,1)
[07:00] <Forgott3n`> df -h is your friend :)
[07:01] <jimdandy> ValentineX, what size is the drive?
[07:01] <Achoth> Forgott3n`: I've tried all diffrent possibillities, I either boot Vista, boot Ubuntu, get "no such partition" message or "can't mount partition" message
[07:02] <ValentineX> @jimdandy 1GB
[07:02] <kev_> How do i setup a screen session so a user on the box can see what im typing?
[07:02] <LSD|Ninja> kev_: get them to connect to it with the -x parameter
[07:03] <illmortal> Does anyone know the channel to Compiz?
[07:03] <Achoth> Forgott3n`: I can also mount the XP partition in Ubuntu, so it's still intact
[07:03] <jimdandy> ValentineX, insert the usb stick.. Open the terminal. Type 'dmesg -tail'.
[07:03] <kev_> LSD|Ninja, how would i start it on my end? just type 'screen'
[07:03] <kev_> then the user would type, screen +x myusername?
[07:04] <kev_> er -x
[07:04] <ValentineX> @jimdandy anything further after that?
[07:04] <jimdandy> ValentineX, if a "disk" window pops up look in the left panel. You can right-click on the "1G disk" or whatever it is called, then click unmount.
[07:04] <kev_> oh wait
[07:04] <LSD|Ninja> I'm not sure you can connect to screen on PIDs owned by a different user to the one trying to access. It may be possible, I just don't know enough about screen to say yay or nay
[07:05] <jimdandy> If no window pops up, don't worry. In the terminal output, look for a few messages at the end about /dev/sdb or /dev/sda or something similar, recognized as a usb device. Do you see it?
[07:05] <kev_> Cannot open your terminal '/dev/ttyp4' - please check.
[07:06] <ValentineX> @jimdandy and done?
[07:06] <Avinash> hello
[07:06] <lwizardl> ok can someone help me with partitioning this install so I don't lose the space on my other 2 windows installs
[07:06] <jimdandy> ValentineX, no you must find out what the device name of the usb device is, probably "/dev/sda" or "/dev/sdb". Do you see it?
[07:06] <Avinash> can anyone help me with installation
[07:07] <lwizardl> /dev/sda1 is xp, /dev/sda2 is vista
[07:07] <Avinash> of driver for ATI
[07:07] <Avinash> it says i have to install with super user
[07:07] <bozy> test
[07:07] <ValentineX> @jimdany i dont know what is that dev sda :s
[07:08] <racle> Hey, how i get rythmbox thing to panel? (that where i can stop, start and change song)
[07:08] <jimdandy> ValentineX, ok, type "ls /dev/sd*"
[07:09] <Avinash> how do i install was super user
[07:10] <ValentineX> @jimdandy i will type i am not at ubuntu then what will i get after typing that?
[07:10] <Avinash> can anyone helpme
[07:10] <Avinash> i need to install ATIU drivers as super user
[07:11] <jimdandy> ValentineX, you must find out if your drive is eg. /dev/sda or /dev/sdb. That will be homework. If you get this part wrong, the commands I tell you will hose the wrong drive.
hi
[07:12] <ValentineX> @jimdandy when i type ls /dev/sd* will it show that where is my drive?
[07:12] <Avinash> jimdandy can u tell me how to install driver as super user
[07:12] <jimdandy> ValentineX, type "sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda" to check out the disk. It will tell you the size, among other things. For a 1G drive we're shooting for 1000MB or thereabouts. If it is way off, you've got the wrong disk.
[07:14] <ValentineX> @jimdandy hmm ok thanks i am going to check that all restarting my pc so i can log in to ubuntu. thanks for help
[07:14] <fiber> hello... i just installed ubuntu on my sister's laptop and i'm trying to make everything as easy as possible for her.  she used to use a WD app to backup her system onto an external and i was wondering if there was an easy app anyone recommends to do the same (with a gui, etc..).. optimally i'd like something that auto-reognises her external and automatically starts the backup
[07:15] <yao_ziyua1> this chan is so hot
[07:15] <JulioNeto> I'm in trouble with F-Spot. In my old computer I had a BIG problem with it, in any moment F-Spot could stop my computer at all, isn't only the X, but ALL. I'm with a new computer now, and with the same problem. How can I fix it?
[07:15] <Avinash> YAO i am new to ubuntu
[07:15] <fiber> JulioNeto: is it hogging all the ram? i could see an image program like that doing so, especially if you have a lot of pictures
[07:16] <Avinash> i am trying to install ATI drivers but it says i have to install as SUper User
[07:16] <Avinash> wat do i do?
[07:16] <fiber> Avinash: sudo is what you need... are you installing with the command line?
[07:17] <Avinash> fiber i am trying to install by running it
[07:17] <Avinash> its a .ren file
[07:17] <Avinash> .run file
[07:17] <fiber> Avinash: also, one letter will make you sound literate (ie: the h in what)
[07:17] <toyo|desk> hello is there like a repo or something that I can enable to get the latest verstions of ati drivers?
[07:17] <john_> cool
[07:17] <Rehan`Away> hi
[07:17] <fiber> ah, well then... go to the directory with that file in terminal and type `sudo sh ./filename` where fileame is the script's name
[07:18] <Rehan`Away> i cant seem to choose the platinum style on kde, can anyone help
[07:18] <fiber> Avinash: the `sudo` will make it so the command is run as root (or super user, same name)
[07:18] <fiber> Avinash: it will ask you for a password, that is your password
[07:18] <Edijus> Ubuntu detects my wirelles, but I still need dial. How to do that?
[07:18] <toyo|desk> because that would most likely be the easiest way to update to the latest drivers
[07:18] <Avinash> thanks fiber
[07:18] <fiber> Avinash: np
[07:18] <toyo|desk> if not I guess I can install them myself
[07:18] <toyo|desk> :/
[07:19] <Avinash> i will try just now and get back toyou
[07:19] <john_> me lag
[07:19] <fiber> toyo|desk: that's probably the best choice... there'll only be .deb packages as fast as people feel like making them, so chances are you won't get nightlies like that or anything bleeding edge... but you can also try turning off stable in your sources.list
[07:19] <Rat409> Edijus: gnomeppp?
[07:20] <ackbahr> Hi! Is there a way to get some kind of virtual desktop (a big desktop in which the screen pans) with gnome? I've got an app that is bigger than my screen.... :(
[07:20] <Rehan> is it wrong to install kde 4 along with kde 3.5
[07:20] <Rat409> Edijus: or wv-dial
[07:20] <toyo|desk> ah fiber thanks...is there a way to only turn off stable in my sources for particular packages or is it all or nothing?
[07:20] <Edijus> Rat409: Is it installed by defoult in ubuntu?
[07:20] <jimdandy> ackbahr, if it is a gnome app, you can hold alt, and click and drag it around with the mouse.
[07:21] <Rat409> not sure doubt it tho
[07:21] <Edijus> Rat409: this how it looks http://img504.imageshack.us/img504/1513/screenshot31xl1.png
[07:21] <floppyears> hi guys
[07:21] <floppyears> what's the best way in ubuntu to upgrade the kernel ?
[07:21] <fiber> toyo|desk: not too sure... i think i saw something like that in synaptic (right click on the package)... but not from the sources.lst
[07:21] <Rehan> so, cant anyone help me
[07:21] <toyo|desk> ah screw it I will just build it...
[07:21] <toyo|desk> :D
[07:21] <toyo|desk> cant possibly be that hard to do
[07:21] <toyo|desk> lol
[07:22] <fiber> toyo|desk: haha, good call! also that way you can use some good old -O3 optimizations and get a few extra precious FPS
[07:22] <chuy_max> floppyears, update-manager actualizes to the latest in the repository
[07:22] <Avinash> Fiber the file is on desktop
[07:22] <floppyears> thanks chuy_max
[07:22] <toyo|desk> fiber, when I ran gentoo I stuck with -Os
[07:22] <chuy_max> floppyears, if you want the newest kernel you might download binaries or compile it
[07:22] <toyo|desk> :D
[07:22] <Avinash> how do i execute it
[07:22] <fiber> Avinash: cd ~/Desktop/
[07:23] <fiber> Avinash: sudo sh ./filename
[07:23] <chuy_max> floppyears, most users don't want/need that
[07:23] <floppyears> chuy_max: what's the latest kernel available for ubuntu ?
[07:24] <ackbahr> Thanks jimdandy!
[07:24] <floppyears> chuy_max: I'm not in front of the computer, only logged in through ssh so I can't use the update manager :(
[07:24] <wols> 2.6.24-21
[07:24] <wols> floppyears: you can use apt-get instead
[07:25] <Avinash> fiber it says cant open file
[07:25] <floppyears> my video card and sound card are not working correctly so that's why I want to try the latest kernel
[07:25] <jimdandy> ackbahr, no problem!
[07:25] <floppyears> so ubuntu doesn't have 2.6.26.2 ?
[07:25] <fiber> Avinash: it's normally helpful if you copy/paste errors
[07:25] <wols> sound it can help, video it won't
[07:25] <Avinash> that is what i have done
[07:26] <fiber> Avinash: errr... i mean... STRAIGHT copy... like, literally what you typed and literally what it said to you
[07:26] <Edijus> How to find gnomeppp or wv-dial in ubuntu?
[07:27] <Avinash> oh ok
[07:27] <sysdoc> :)
[07:27] <john_> wah if all chat at 1 time cant see message should put in slow mode 1 message per 30 second :)
[07:27] <fiber> Avinash: anyways, the problem is probably file restrictions.... exceute the command `chmod u+x filename`
[07:27] <wols> Edijus: apt-cache search <term>
[07:27] <Avinash> avinash@avinash-desktop:~$ sudo sh ./ati-driver-installer-8-7-x86.x86_64
[07:27] <Avinash> sh: Can't open ./ati-driver-installer-8-7-x86.x86_64
[07:27] <Avinash> avinash@avinash-desktop:~$
[07:28] <bozy> o(∩_∩)o...
[07:28] <wols> Avinash: not supported at all. it will break your ubuntu too
[07:28] <wols> Avinash: any special reason you must have this version?
[07:28] <yinepuhotep> Avinash: I've had better luck using the Envy installer from Synaptic.
[07:28] <Avinash> its the driver for my graphics card
[07:29] <lint> can someone explain how to use azureus to search for torrents?
[07:29] <yinepuhotep> lint: Azureus doesn't search.
[07:29] <wols> Avinash: no
[07:29] <yinepuhotep> lint: All it does is manage the torrents once you find them in Firefox.
[07:29] <wols> Avinash: what videocard do you have?
[07:29] <Avinash> ATI X1300
[07:29] <lint> yinepuhotep: oh ok thank you
[07:29] <wols> Avinash: ubuntu ships with a fglrx that works for this card. use that
[07:30] <wols> !fglrx | Avinash
[07:30] <wols> Avinash: NEVER ever use drivers from the manufacturer. it leads to grief
[07:30] <floppyears> what's the best way to compile and install a kernel from source ?
[07:31] <yinepuhotep> I can understand why Avinash would want to, though. I have a Radeon, and the fglrx that ships with Ubuntu does not provide adequate support.
[07:31] <Avinash> wols as you say
[07:31] <wols> floppyears: kernel-package. but a new kernel is not the solution to your problems
[07:31] <yinepuhotep> That's why I used Synaptic to install EnvyNG.
[07:31] <wols> floppyears: not to mention chances are you bork it
[07:31] <zzbeers> wtf
[07:31] <floppyears> wols: what do you think might be the solutions to my problem ?
[07:31] <lint> can someone recommend a good file sharing program for ubuntu?
[07:31] <Avinash> yinepuhtep how do i install it
[07:32] <wols> installing the right drivers and possibly a new alsa
[07:32] <yinepuhotep> EnvyNG is in Synaptic
[07:32] <floppyears> wols: right now I'm running 2.6.24-19-generic #1 SMP Fri Jul 11 21:01:46 UTC 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[07:32] <zzbeers> what the cow fuck
[07:32] <jpds> !ohmy | zzbeers
[07:33] <yinepuhotep> You might have to activate the restricted repositories, but you can just select it from Synaptic to install it.
[07:33] <bazhang> zzbeers, no cursing
[07:33] <zzbeers> k
[07:34] <Avinash> ﻿yinepuhotep should i install envyng-qt

[07:58] <tenlet> newbie question: is Xubuntu the GUI of ubuntu?
[07:58] <wols> tenlet: no
[07:58] <newbiew> What are the third party software then.. and why i was able to see open office.. is there another way with the correct repos as you say before? how do i install this repos
[07:58] <w3rd_> well, do you know of one that you felt is pretty easy to work with for the most part?
[07:59] <yinepuhotep> tenlet: Wish I could give you a better answer than that, but all I can say is, give it as much space as you can safely afford.
[07:59] <wols> *ubuntu are all the same distros but each using a different desktop environment. gnome, kde, xfce...
[07:59] <tenlet> well got a 60gb HD to use
[07:59] <john_> ebay 20g hardisk :)
[07:59] <tenlet> probably go with 40 for XP and 20 for ubuntu
[07:59] <yinepuhotep> Good figure to start with, given how much of a hog XP is.
[07:59] <SnickleFritz> wols: fdisk only lists sda and the partitions on it.
[08:00] <w3rd_> my question is if i install a local smtp sever how will i be able to send out to people if not public./
[08:00] <tenlet> yine: you installed XP first right?
[08:00] <newbiew> wols.. ubuntu come with open office and xubuntu does not
[08:00] <class_> wols, thank you , i removed it sucesfuly, do you have any idea how to fix splashy?
[08:00] <newbiew> and is not even in synaptic.. so ubuntu come by default with more repos
[08:01] <newbiew> i need my xubuntu to have ubuntu support. how i do this
[08:01] <yinepuhotep> tenlet: I did. And once I had Ubuntu installed, I edited my Grub config to give me 10 seconds to choose an OS on boot. It's easy enough to do.
[08:01] <john_> me spec is 500mb ram ,pentium 3  500ghz ok ???
[08:01] <ackbahr> Bye, CU all!
[08:01] <wols> newbiew: no. xubuntu comes with the same repos. you just havent activated them
[08:01] <wols> w3rd_: you will need a smarthost
[08:01] <newbiew> can you teach me how or can you give me a guide
[08:01] <newbiew> thanks
[08:01] <tenlet> yine: nice that is what I want also.. can you change the default OS though?
[08:01] <yinepuhotep> john: Should be. I installed my first system in a 333mhz P2.
[08:02] <wols> class_: read the splashy docs how to actually use it
[08:02] <yinepuhotep> tenlet: Yes, you can. Same config file lets you choose which OS to boot by default.
[08:02] <john_> :) its install but a bit laggy
[08:02] <newbiew> wols.. are this the deb. repos?
[08:02] <wols> tenlet: yes. in menu.lst
[08:02] <newbiew> how do i active it
[08:02] <wols> newbiew: yes. but NOT partner
[08:02] <class_> wols, the problem is that is wont install...
[08:02] <w3rd_> wols: any recommendations?
[08:02] <tenlet> ok then.. I have XP installed but have been using it for a bit, a clean format is recommended for this right?
[08:02] <newbiew> ok
[08:02] <newbiew> how do i active it?
[08:02] <wols> class_: it did install
[08:03] <yinepuhotep> tenlet: Depends. Do you have empty space on your drive that XP doesn't already own?
[08:03] <john_> would a 128mb graphic card help
[08:03] <wols> tenlet: not needed. and we don't do XP advice
[08:03] <wols> john_: no. more RAM would
[08:03] <kcman1> what is the command to change dir in terminal
[08:03] <tenlet> yine: about 40/60 gb used at the moment
[08:03] <yinepuhotep> If you don't, then it's easier to do a clean install, because you can never be sure your defrag will clean up the drive enough for parted to give you a good division.
[08:03] <john_> ok i guess buy grahpic card (ebay)
[08:04] <john_> ram 500 sdram
[08:04] <tenlet> eh whatever ill do a format
[08:04] <newbiew> Wols, how can I activate the repos?
[08:04] <yinepuhotep> tenlet: Sounds like you'll be safer that way. Less chance of losing things you want to keep.
[08:05] <seyo> pp
[08:05] <seyo> pp
[08:05] <wols> newbiew: synaptic has a menu iirc or you edit sources.list directly
[08:05] <SnickleFritz> Have any of you been able to plug in an Ipod Nano into a laptop, and it mounts right away? If not, what guide helped?
[08:06] <loxs> folks, which package do I install to have colourful fonts in the terminals?
[08:06] <wols> SnickleFritz: until fdisk -l shows a partition there is nothing to mount. ever
[08:06] <wols> loxs: none
[08:06] <newbiew> Wols i couldnt found a iirc menu on synaptic
[08:06] <john_> how do i message some1 help
[08:06] <newbiew> where it is? settings?
[08:07] <kcman1> what is the command to change dir's in terminal?
[08:07] <wols> newbiew: there is no iirc menu. IIRC = if I remember correctly
[08:07] <loxs> ok wols, now as we talk in ubuntu, I hope you won't shout at me :)
[08:07] <wols> kcman1: cd
[08:07] <kcman1> wols thank you
[08:07] <yinepuhotep> newbiew: Settings->Repositories
[08:07] <wols> loxs: I didn't. if you continue like you did I might ignore you soonish
[08:07] <bullgard4> In Gutsy there was an executable program hal-device-manager. What did it replace in Hardy?
[08:07] <loxs> and do you have any idea how to make my terminals with colorful fonts?
[08:08] <SnickleFritz> wols: Is there any information on what could be keeping fdisk from seeing the Ipod?
[08:08] <wols> SnickleFritz: is the ipod a mass storage device?
[08:08] <yinepuhotep> loxs: The only way I know to do it is to write a profile that defines colorful fonts. It's way too much work for me to bother.
[08:09] <john_> aahh click on name to message him or her :)
[08:09] <loxs> hmm, yinepuhotep thank you... that means that I take the profile from my gentoo box... do you have any idea which file is that?
[08:09] <wols> loxs: ls --color
[08:09] <class_> wols, do you know anythig about sound in hardy, i cant get any, i tried switching from alsa to pulse but to no avail,also couldnt google anything useful
[08:09] <loxs> hm, wols that's it...
[08:10] <wols> what soundcard?
[08:10] <SnickleFritz> wols: It is at it's default setting. I can only assume that it is. Is there a way to check?
[08:10] <loxs> thanks
[08:10] <class_> wols, onboard
[08:10] <wols> class_: doesn't answer my question
[08:10] <wols> SnickleFritz: how should I know what "default" is or care?
[08:10] <skygenetic> my firefox in ubuntu hardy doesnt play sound while i am youtubing
[08:10] <skygenetic> anyone can help
[08:10] <class_> wols, oh..let me check it
[08:11] <john_> bye all thanks wols i go google for asnwer
[08:11] <class_> wols 00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller (rev 01)
[08:11] <yinepuhotep> For the ipod question, have you tried installing gpodder, hipo, or ipod from Synaptic?
[08:12] <ArtVandalae> Hi, does anyone know if the latest empathy packages exist for hardy?
[08:12] <SnickleFritz> wols: *shrug* An Ipod is an Ipod. According to my research, it should have been formatted in FAT32 when I first used it. I will allow more than just songs to be stored on it, and its HD could be directly accessed by WinXP.
[08:13] <sarthor> i want to chat in yahoo chat rooms. and also want my laptop webcam working there. What chat cleint is better for my hardy on my laptop??
[08:13] <SnickleFritz> yine: No, but I will try them.
[08:13] <sarthor> from kopete, i cant join chat rooms.
[08:13] <SnickleFritz> wols: change "I" to "It"
[08:13] <class_> skygenetic, maybethis will help: http://linuxexpert.wordpress.com/2008/05/16/fix-flash-sound-problems-on-hardy/
[08:14] <wols> class_: snd-hda-intel is the alsa driver
[08:14] <skygenetic> thanks class
[08:14] <skygenetic> i will try
[08:15] <class_> wols, thank you, where do i go from here ?
[08:15] <SnickleFritz> How is it that and Ipod can show up in "Computer" but not in fdisk?
[08:16] <SnickleFritz> odd...
[08:16] <wols> class_: to your logs to check any possible alsa problems. also run a alsa mixer to check volume settins
[08:16] <floppyears> hi guys
[08:16] <floppyears> what's a good itunes alternative for ubuntu
[08:17] <class_> wols, thanks
[08:17] <Smegzor> My ISP doesn't charge for traffic after midnight.  Is there a way to schedule updates to only happen between midnight and 8am?
[08:17] <mochabcha> is there anyone here that can help me with sudo
[08:17] <wols> !anyone | mochabcha
[08:17] <Kartagis> Smegzor, create a cron job
[08:18] <mochabcha> ok...
[08:18] <sarthor> i want to chat in yahoo chat rooms. and also want my laptop webcam working there. What chat cleint is better for my hardy on my laptop??
[08:18] <wols> Smegzor: disable update-manager and run a apt-get cronjob instead
[08:18] <Kartagis> 00 08 * * * apt-get update
[08:18] <Smegzor> Kartagis: hmm..  I've never done that before.  Are they easy to set up?
[08:18] <tenlet> anyone else like this ubuntu GUI?
[08:18] <Gin> ff hasn't crashed even once after I uninstalled flash :\
[08:18] <mochabcha> I need to add myself to the sudo users list yet I can't do it unless I write to the file which requires that i be in the sudo list...any suggestions
[08:18] <tenlet> http://www.s1dd.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/screenshot-1.png
[08:18] <Gin> damn flash
[08:19] <wols> mochabcha: no. there is no other way than being able to use sudo under your current user
[08:19] <atz9900> mochabcha: do you still have the primary user (created when you installed ubuntu)?
[08:19] <wols> mochabcha: if you installed this ubuntu your main user is already in sudoers
[08:19] <mochabcha> how do i login to it
[08:20] <atz9900> mochabcha: you have to know the user name and password
[08:20] <wols> mochabcha: ctrl+alt+f1 and login
[08:20] <tenlet> wols: can you point me the direction to some screenshots of ubuntu GUIs that may include crazy futuristic styles like this: http://www.s1dd.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/screenshot-1.png    ?
[08:20] <atz9900> mochabcha: you installed the system, didn't you?
[08:20] <mochabcha> yes
[08:20] <lint> can someone recommend a good irc client for ubuntu?
[08:20] <mochabcha> the only one I remember installing is the one I'm using
[08:20] <wols> lint: irssi or x-chat
[08:20] <mochabcha> isn't there a root user
[08:21] <mzuverink> Can someone recommend a good(note NOT skype) program that I can use to make voip call to landline and cellphones?  any remendations would be wonderfully entertain and appreciated
[08:21] <wols> mochabcha: no. if you set up this user then this user can use sudo
[08:21] <wols> mzuverink: ekiga
[08:21] <atz9900> mochabcha: i don't mean the root user. i mean the primary user which is created when installing ubuntu.
[08:21] <mochabcha> there is only one user
[08:21] <mochabcha> i think virtualbox took me out of the group list
[08:21] <mzuverink> wols, the accept paypal?
[08:22] <wols> mzuverink: why would they? ekiga is GPLed
[08:22] <atz9900> mochabcha: i doubt that
[08:22] <wols> they might if you want to donate
[08:22] <lint> can someone help me? i have forgotten my system pasword and i am locked out of synaptic?
[08:22] <mochabcha> well in order to install it I had to run a command in terminal
[08:22] <wols> lint: if you forgot you can't log in anyways. since that is the only password you have
[08:22] <lint> nevermind
[08:22] <lint> i rememebered it
[08:22] <lint> thabnks anyway
[08:23] <mzuverink> wols, then how do you pay for the calls are they just free, that does not make sense???
[08:23] <mochabcha> um.. sudo usermod -G vboxusers mochabcha
[08:23] <wols> mzuverink: you use a SIP based VoIP provider
[08:23] <wols> that's only needed if you call normal phones
[08:23] <atz9900> mochabcha: yeah, thats the wrong command. leaving you in group "vboxusers" only
[08:23] <mzuverink> wols, ok thanks
[08:24] <mochabcha> it took me out of all other groups?
[08:24] <atz9900> mochabcha: yes
[08:24] <mochabcha> sweet, i'm screwed
[08:24] <hateball> mochabcha: there's a forumpost about restoring your groups
[08:24] <atz9900> mochabcha: the right command would have been  adduser mochabcha vboxusers
[08:24] <wols> mochabcha: boot from a live cd. become root and chroot
[08:24] <mochabcha> ok
[08:24] <wols> then you can set passwd
[08:24] <hateball> mochabcha: an easy way is to boot in recovery mode, and then adduser mochabcha admin
[08:25] <mochabcha> how do you boot in recovery mode in linux
[08:25] <hateball> mochabcha: Reboot the machine, it should have that option in Grub
[08:25] <tenlet> does ubuntu have alternative GUIs? havent trouble finding anything on google about it.. for example slackware has KDE, ubuntu = ?
[08:25] <mochabcha> the failsafe
[08:25] <wols> tenlet: gnome, kde, xfce, fluxbox,...
[08:26] <rgnr> ppl hlp wxwidgets checkinstall http://paste.org.ru/?iw3748
[08:26] <tenlet> all GUIs are interchangeable through distros?
[08:26] <wols> tenlet: not really
[08:26] <tenlet> what comes with unbuntu i should say then?
[08:26] <hateball> mochabcha: Says recovery on mine I think, but yeah... you should end up as root at tty1. just add your normal account to the admin group and then you can reboot and restore at your own pace
[08:26] <atz9900> tenlet: ubuntu has gnome, kubuntu has kde, xubuntu has xfce
[08:27] <tenlet> hmm must have missed something, what is K and X?
[08:27] <horchata> has anyone here encountered problem where usb wireless adapters only work after an /etc/init.d/networking restart?
[08:27] <wols> rgnr: ln: creating symbolic link `libwx_baseu-2.8.so': File exists
[08:27] <mochabcha> awesome!! this irc thing is AMAZING.  another question is there anyway to enable mp4 and aac tag editing in ubuntu
[08:27] <wols> horchata: do you have gnome-network-manager running?
[08:27] <arethius> can someone help me find and install drivers for a wireless notebook card?
[08:27] <wols> !wireless | arethius
[08:28] <rgnr> wols:  so what am i gonna do?
[08:28] <nodoubt> on restarting bind i get a "rndc: connection failed......" ???? any help?
[08:28] <mochabcha> i'm trying to synchronize my ipod in linux by any means possible, but its not working.  I'm having to vm boot xp with virtualbox, which brings me to where I am now
[08:28] <arethius> thanks
[08:28] <horchata> wols: no gnome-network-manager
[08:28] <Smegzor> in my cron jobs, man-db runs daily and weekly.  I don't need it scheduled to run weekly do I?  I didn't set it up so I'm not sure why its in both.
[08:29] <atz9900> mochabcha: i think rhythmbox can also sync ipod  (if the ipod was initialized with fat32 filesystem, not apple hfs). there is also gtkpod.
[08:29] <mochabcha> auto sync?
[08:30] <class_> wols, thank you , i found a good guide to intel sound cards on ubuntu here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HdaIntelSoundHowto. its working now!
[08:30] <atz9900> mochabcha: don't know. i changed the firmware of my ipod to rockbox, not needing itunes anymore.
[08:30] <mochabcha> doo tell...
[08:30] <mochabcha> what is this rockbox
[08:31] <atz9900> mochabcha: www.rockbox.org
[08:31] <mochabcha> will this work for an ipod 6g classic
[08:31] <atz9900> mochabcha: note that rockbox does not run on all ipod models
[08:31] <atz9900> mochabcha: see the page for that info
[08:31] <fungo> how could i clean my ubuntu, only lefting the "base" of the system?
[08:31] <fungo> i would like to reinstall everything but the base
[08:32] <mochabcha> ok, I'll def see if it'll work.  I actually asked that question before, thx for the answer.
[08:32] <fungo> i have too much "trash" installed that would be nice to get rid of
[08:34] <t123> hello all
[08:34] <t123> I am curious if someone tell me how to figure out an IRC server?
[08:34] <arethius> hello
[08:34] <t123> I was on this site "Urbandictionary" and I know their chat is IRC based, how can I find out the name of their server so I can connect directly via irc?
[08:35] <wols> t123: read their site or ask them
[08:35] <arethius> it should be documented on their website
[08:35] <tenlet> blah... you have to install packages in ubuntu just to run a hello world program in C?
[08:35] <t123> oh really?
[08:35] <fungo> tenlet apt-get install build-essential
[08:35] <t123> gee I would never have thought to read their site
[08:35] <Accuracy> does anyone know how to fix hardy?
[08:35] <yaron> yaron_baskas@hotmail.com
[08:35] <onthefence928> i just created a SlideShow background generator for gnome, so you can turn your background/wallpaper into a sweet slideshow of any pictures you want, to check it out go to http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5626850#post5626850 and feedack would be appreciated
[08:35] <arethius> t123: they normally look like "irc.freenode.net #ubuntu"
[08:35] <Accuracy> I upgraded and now it's broken
[08:35] <atz9900> tenlet: apt-get install build-essential
[08:35] <Accuracy> and all I can find are people saying they also have the problem
[08:35] <Accuracy> but not how to fix it
[08:35] <t123> what are u people kids and brats? read their site? get real
[08:35] <wols> tenlet: no. the necessary stuff is in the base install otherwise you couldn't run ANY program
[08:36] <t123> any non immature folks here to answer this now?
[08:36] <arethius> t123: where the irc.net part is the server and the #xxxxx is the chatroom name
[08:36] <wols> !doesn't work | Accuracy
[08:36] <nodoubt> ﻿ rndc: error on bind restart??
[08:36] <Accuracy> lol
[08:36] <Accuracy> it's the gnome settings daemon
[08:36] <wols> !attitude | t123
[08:36] <Accuracy> none of the menubars are showing up
[08:36] <Accuracy> so I can't pull up terminal
[08:36] <Accuracy> or anything else
[08:36] <atz9900> t123: how is your question related to ubuntu support?
[08:36] <Accuracy> I can only access my desktop
[08:36] <wols> Accuracy: alt+f2
[08:37] <Accuracy> didn't work
[08:37] <Accuracy> I tried
[08:37] <t123> I am running ubuntu as my OS!
[08:37] <Accuracy> alt-f2 didn't do anything
[08:37] <t123> hence I need to figure this out ubuntu style!
[08:37] <onthefence928> Accuracy: gnome bug i think just reboot
[08:37] <t123> and if people are not bratty kids, they will not be responded to in kind
[08:37] <bazhang> t123, it has nothing to do with ubuntu
[08:37] <Accuracy> I rebooted several times
[08:37] <Accuracy> it's a repeated problem
[08:37] <wols> t123: but it's no ubuntu question. now please ask the people and places where it's on topic
[08:37] <Accuracy> it also occured when I tried to search for terminal in the file system
[08:38] <onthefence928> Accuracyt: when i got that problem it fixed itself after a reboot
[08:38] <Accuracy> I was trying to figure out where the application was in ubuntu so I could run it
[08:38] <Accuracy> and I got another gnome settings error
[08:38] <wols> Accuracy: check ~/.xsessions-errors maybe?
[08:38] <Accuracy> how do I do that?
[08:38] <t123> yo man it is an ubuntu topic, as I need help to use ubuntu to figure this out, yah know?
[08:38] <mochabcha> thank you very much atz9900 and hateball for your help, and thx very much for the rockbox tip
[08:38] <bazhang> t123, please take it elsewhere.
[08:39] <wols> t123: websearch is no ubuntu question
[08:39] <hateball> mochabcha: anytime :)
[08:40] <Accuracy> wols: how do I check ~/.xsessions-errors?
[08:40] <t123> man u people are real jerkoffs
[08:40] <wols> Accuracy: by looking at it
[08:40] <Accuracy> ...
[08:40] <Accuracy> where is it?
[08:40] <Accuracy> I don't know where to find it
[08:40] <wols> I just told you: ~/.xsession-errors. it'S a full path
[08:41] <Accuracy> ah
[08:42] <Accuracy> ok
[08:42] <Accuracy> I tried
[08:42] <Accuracy> it says it can't show it
[08:42] <Accuracy> because that's not a location
[08:43] <lecraM> AID MY PLATE OF SOUND ISA DOES NOT FUNCTION IN  UBUNTU!!!!!!!!!!!
[08:43] <wols> it is
[08:43] <lecraM> ALSACONF?
[08:43] <wols> !caps | lecraM
[08:43] <bazhang> !br | lecraM
[08:43] <lecraM> YES
[08:44] <lecraM> SIM
[08:44] <Accuracy> well the error I'm getting says "The location is not a folder"
[08:44] <lecraM> ALGUÉM FALA EM PT
[08:44] <lecraM> ?
[08:44] <bazhang> lecraM, /join #ubuntu-br
[08:44] <Accuracy> so something must be wrong
[08:45] <Accuracy> because I can't access it
[08:45] <arethius> how do i use su in terminal to be root? is it just "su" then type the system password when prompted?
[08:45] <wols> arethius: you can't
[08:45] <Accuracy> yes, arethius
[08:45] <wols> arethius: there is no root account on ubuntu, so don't even try
[08:45] <bazhang> arethius, use sudo
[08:46] <Accuracy> o.O
[08:46] <Accuracy> su works for me
[08:46] <SuperQ> Accuracy: only if you enable a root password
[08:46] <wols> !noroot
[08:46] <hano> hi
[08:46] <SuperQ> exactly
[08:46] <Accuracy> ah
[08:46] <Accuracy> well anyway
[08:46] <strawbeRRy_fieLd> ah so in ubuntu u dont use sudo like in kubuntu?
[08:46] <SuperQ> the "no root password, use sudo" thing is a really good idea for most people
[08:47] <hano> i burned an 8.04 iso image on a cd, but there's no autoload when rebooting the computer
[08:47] <hano> how can I start the installation?
[08:47] <Accuracy> do you have any idea why ~/.xsession-errors does not axist?
[08:47] <wols> hano: check the cd content. what files are there?
[08:47] <SuperQ> hano: You probably need to adjust your BIOS boot list
[08:47] <arethius> alright, well, the ndiswrapper instructions say to open a terminal and change user to root to continue, so do I just ignore that part and continue on?
[08:47] <wols> arethius: why don't you use the ndiswrapper packages?
[08:47] <wols> !info ndisgtk
[08:47] <strawbeRRy_fieLd> ah so in ubuntu u dont use sudo like in kubuntu?
[08:48] <wols> strawbeRRy_fieLd: you use it exactly the same way
[08:48] <SuperQ> strawbeRRy_fieLd: No, you treat ubuntu and kubuntu the same
[08:48] <lecraM> ﻿ubottu: sorry
[08:48] <SuperQ> strawbeRRy_fieLd: By default, there is no root password, and you use sudo instead
[08:48] <hano> wols: theres some autorun.inf on the cd
[08:48] <wols> hano: then check bios as suggested
[08:48] <SuperQ> hano: The CD is not supposed to be used in windows
[08:48] <lecraM> ﻿ubottu:caps look ativate rsrs
[08:48] <strawbeRRy_fieLd> yes but in kubuntu when u use sudo it asks u a root password to go on
[08:49] <wols> strawbeRRy_fieLd: no
[08:49] <SuperQ> hano: You put the CD in and reboot the PC, it will start from the CD
[08:49] <strawbeRRy_fieLd> is it the same in ubuntu?
[08:49] <lucky__> hai
[08:49] <strawbeRRy_fieLd> yes it does wols
[08:49] <wols> it asks you for your user password
[08:49] <SuperQ> hano: But you may need to adjust the boot priority order
[08:49] <PauloRicardo> what's the better/newer, gdialog or zenity?
[08:49] <strawbeRRy_fieLd> ah ok
[08:49] <wols> strawbeRRy_fieLd: no it doesn't
[08:49] <hano> SuperQ: i'm currently using 6.10
[08:49] <strawbeRRy_fieLd> and that's different
[08:49] <bazhang> strawbeRRy_fieLd, that is not right.
[08:49] <strawbeRRy_fieLd> alright i thought it was a root pass
[08:49] <wols> hano: update please
[08:49] <strawbeRRy_fieLd> got it
[08:49] <SuperQ> hano: Oh, there is no direct upgrade path from 6.10 to 8.04
[08:49] <strawbeRRy_fieLd> so talking about it
[08:50] <strawbeRRy_fieLd> do you think gnome and then ubuntu is better than kubuntu?
[08:50] <SuperQ> hano: You either re-install, or you have to incremental upgrade it to 7.04, then 7.10, then 8.04
[08:50] <hano> SuperQ: yes, that's why i saved all my files and tried to install 8.04
[08:50] <SuperQ> strawbeRRy_fieLd: they're basically the same
[08:50] <r_a_f> howto kill process when sudo pkill, sudo kill killall dont kill him?
[08:50] <bazhang> strawbeRRy_fieLd, this is not a chat channel; see #ubuntu-offtopic for that
[08:50] <hano> SuperQ: i did as you said, put in the CD and rebooted - but it's not starting from the cd
[08:50] <lint_> hello, can someone instruct me on installing an icon theme in gnome under ubuntu?
[08:50] <strawbeRRy_fieLd> bazhag im not "chatting" im asking for a techinical opinion
[08:50] <SuperQ> hano: Like I said, you will need to go into the BIOS and make sure the CD is the first boot prioirity
[08:51] <bazhang> strawbeRRy_fieLd, not here.
[08:51] <SuperQ> hano: Have you tried the CD on another computer?
[08:51] <Accuracy> does anyone know a way to fix the gnome-settings-daemon crash without checking ~/.xsession-errors?
[08:51] <Kartagis> is is impossible to add more than 4  keyboard layouts under ubuntu?
[08:51] <arethius> i've installed ndisgtk and needed packages through the package manager, in terminal I type ndisgtk and it says sudo or root privileges required, so i type sudo root, then the password when prompted
[08:51] <strawbeRRy_fieLd> i dont see the prob.... anyway...
[08:51] <hano> SuperQ: no - maybe I have to set some "boot flags" when burning it to make clear that's supposed to be a boot-cd?
[08:51] <arethius> then try ndisgtk again and it gives me the same error
[08:51] <bazhang> arethius, only sudo, no root
[08:51] <SuperQ> hano: not if you did a direct ISO burn
[08:52] <hano> SuperQ: yes, I did. hm ok.. now, when booting the pc, GRUB starts
[08:52] <arethius> how do I open the ndisgtk graphical front end?
[08:52] <PauloRicardo> Zenity ship's with Ubuntu?  Since when?
[08:53] <hano> SuperQ: maybe I'll have a look in the bios, though i'm not familiar with it..
[08:53] <Accuracy> does anyone know a way to fix the gnome-settings-daemon crash without checking ~/.xsession-errors?
[08:53] <arethius> bazhang: thanks, that worked

[08:55] <fade_> its in the paste bin
[08:55] <Accuracy> most of the workarounds I've found require getting a new package

[09:01] <wols> like you install any other package
[09:01] <strawbeRRy_fieLd> yes exaclty, how? :D
[09:01] <wols> and if you don't know how to do that, read help.ubuntu.com cause you really need it
[09:01] <strawbeRRy_fieLd> mmm ok
[09:01] <bazhang> lint_, you may need to extract it if dragging does not work
[09:01] <strawbeRRy_fieLd> is it something like sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop ?
[09:01] <wols> for example
[09:01] <bazhang> strawbeRRy_fieLd, yup
[09:02] <Accuracy> hmm
[09:02] <wols> Accuracy: press ctrl+alt+f2
[09:02] <strawbeRRy_fieLd> i imagined it was like this but i wasnt sure
[09:02] <wols> there the path I gave you will work too btw
[09:02] <a_l_e> hello. i'm trying to install x11 on a server hardy install... is there any list of the packages needed to get startx to work?

[09:02] <a_l_e> (i'm stuck at "No valid FontPath could be found."
[09:02] <wols> a_l_e: install xorg. but servers shouldn't have X servers. really
[09:03] <Accuracy> wols: thank you, that worked
[09:03] <lint_> bazhang: where do i extract them to?
[09:03] <Accuracy> how do I reinstall gnome desktop?
[09:03] <a_l_e> wols: no choice, here: the server install is the only which works for ppc (afaik)... and it's not a server it's a powerbook .-)
[09:03] <bazhang> lint_, where did you dl it to
[09:03] <Accuracy> I can't access the internet to download packages I don't already have, but I do have a gutsy cd
[09:03] <nodoubt> anyone know bind blindfolded? i have a question noone can seem to answer
[09:03] <wols> a_l_e: then also install ubuntu-desktop
[09:04] <Bionic_Apple> I am using a vanilla Gnome install on a different distro, but someone here can probably help me out: How do I make Ubuntu's Wine menu (in Applications menu) from scratch?
[09:04] <pvh_sa|wrk> anyone here worked with nfs and kerberos auth? i'm trying to understand why the fsid=0 seems so important
[09:04] <sleepster> anyone know how to change the keymap in xterm?
[09:04] <bazhang> Bionic_Apple, which distro
[09:04] <wols> Bionic_Apple: we only support ubuntu
[09:04] <a_l_e> wols: mmh... i guess, that i don't really want the full desktop install, either... :-)
[09:04] <sleepster> it keeps making my 'alt' key output some weird junk
[09:04] <lint_> bazhang: /tmp
[09:04] <wols> a_l_e: what do you want?
[09:04] <SmokeEater85911> somebody PM me if you have the chance thanks
[09:04] <Bionic_Apple> bazhang: Arch Linux, but it is a very general question
[09:04] <a_l_e> wols: x11 working!
[09:04] <bazhang> Bionic_Apple, then ask in their channel not here
[09:04] <a_l_e> wols: a working x11!
[09:04] <sleepster> ls
[09:05] <wols> that I told you how to do. but it will give you twm. you won't like that :)
[09:05] <Bionic_Apple> bazhang: I did, but no one is helping me :(, plus I don't have Ubuntu installed to model mine after
[09:05] <bazhang> Bionic_Apple, nonetheless that is offtopic here.
[09:06] <Accuracy> how do I reinstall gnome desktop? I can't access the internet to download packages I don't already have, but I do have a gutsy cd
[09:06] <a_l_e> wols: apt-get install ubuntu-desktop wants to install 1.618 GB of stuff... my powerbook will crash before finishing installing it!
[09:06] <wols> install fluxbox
[09:07] <wols> or xubuntu-desktop
[09:07] <wols> Accuracy: then use that
[09:07] <Accuracy> what's the package for gnome?
[09:07] <r_a_f> openbox is too nice ;)
[09:07] <wols> ubuntu-desktop
[09:07] <Accuracy> k
[09:07] <wols> Accuracy: but since that is already installed, (all of it), it won't reinstall usually
[09:08] <sleepster> anyone know how to change the keymap in xterm? My alt key is not working as it is supposed to
[09:08]  * a_l_e is trying to install fluxbox...
[09:08] <wols> sleepster: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[09:08] <a_l_e> wols: fluxbox is install but still no x11.
[09:08] <Accuracy> bah
[09:09] <Accuracy> I can't think of another way to fix the gnome-settings-daemon crash
[09:09] <sleepster> wols: well I don't think xserver is the problem.. I think it is xterm
[09:09] <wols> a_l_e: pastebin your Xorg log after running startx
[09:09] <Accuracy> hardy is crashing my server :'(
[09:09] <Accuracy> why oh why did I not just keep gutsy? :(
[09:10] <strawbeRRy_fieLd> i typed sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop but its taking ages and installing lots of packages...
[09:10] <wols> sleepster: to be expected
[09:10] <sleepster> wols: well I don't think xterm has ever worked properly to tell you the truth :)
[09:11] <sleepster> wols: it can't understand 'alt' or 'control' keys
[09:11] <SnickleFritz> Accuracy: since you have access to internet now, Synaptic will allow you to download the packages themselves, if I understand correctly. Could you download them to a thumb drive and then unpack and install them onto your broken machine?
[09:11] <Accuracy> I'm on a windows machine
[09:11] <Accuracy> =P
[09:12] <Accuracy> no synaptic around here
[09:12] <wols> !apt-on-cd

[09:14] <bazhang> Accuracy, how did gnome get uninstalled? why was it on the server in the first place?
[09:14] <UnionPivo> XB23, Linux prechaches and buffers a lot of things on its own
[09:14] <SnickleFritz> Accuracy: what about here: http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/gnome/ and then download the packages you need to thumb drive.
[09:14] <XB23> when it gets to the top it will crash wont it

[09:15] <wols> SnickleFritz: downloading ubuntu-desktop and all dependencies? masochism at its finest
[09:15] <UnionPivo> XB23, no it wont
[09:15] <XB23> oh ok
[09:15] <Accuracy> because I don't like dealing with a terminal all the time
[09:15] <SnickleFritz> wols: well, no, just the individual packages he needs.

[09:32] <bazhang> vitim, please stop.
[09:32] <Abracadabra> I have tried it with some instructions....but it so different to Windows, I am not sure I understand the logic
[09:32] <a_l_e> Abracadabra: reading this (first hit for "linux filesystem"...) may help a bit...
[09:33] <ActionParsnip> Abracadabra: you need at least 2, 1 for /swp and the other for /. its advisable to have a seperate partition for /home
[09:33] <vitim> bazhang,
[09:33] <vitim> already turned off the message of mp3, I am now making it a question brother.
[09:33] <Abracadabra> [09:32] <a_l_e> Abracadabra: reading this (first hit for "linux filesystem"...) may help a bit... <----- where can I read this ? .... do I simply google that ?
[09:33] <ActionParsnip> Abracadabra: if you are multibooting, you can mount the same partition as /home so all your docs will flow through the systems
[09:33] <Dethray> !errno5
[09:34] <a_l_e> Abracadabra: sorry forgot the link: http://www.freeos.com/articles/3102/
[09:34] <Accuracy> omg
[09:34] <Accuracy> I rebooted
[09:34] <Accuracy> and it magically works again
[09:34] <a_l_e> Abracadabra: if you have the money, it would be better to start out with a new hard disk and let the install programm fully use it!
[09:34] <Accuracy> go figure
[09:34] <Accuracy> 4th reboot and it finally worked
[09:34] <FloodBot3> Accuracy: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[09:34] <Accuracy> >_<
[09:34] <Abracadabra> ActionParsnip: I am not multibooting atm, I am staying safe and using VMWare, but I created some partitions following some docs, and I can't delete them...I don't have the same control as I would have with Windows
[09:34] <ActionParsnip> Accuracy: reboots fix some stuff dude, just like windows
[09:35] <Accuracy> yea but I had to reboot 4 times to get it to work
[09:35] <Dethray> what to work
[09:35] <Accuracy> and got the same error 3 times in a row
[09:35] <ActionParsnip> Abracadabra: you need to run your partitioner with sudo or gksu depending whree the app runs
[09:35] <a_l_e> Abracadabra: i would start with something really simple :-)
[09:35] <Abracadabra> a_l_e, ta, will check it out in a sec :)
[09:35] <ActionParsnip> Accuracy: what you trying to fix
[09:35] <Accuracy> gnome-settings-daemon crash
[09:36] <ActionParsnip> Accuracy: nice
[09:36] <Accuracy> yea
[09:36] <a_l_e> ok, i come back with _my_ question: does anybody know of an howto about installing a minimal but working x11 on a server install of scribus
[09:37] <zzl> what's a good linux distro that could read the original unicodes of programs?
[09:37] <ActionParsnip> zzl: how do you mean? Like source code?
[09:37] <xnv> zzl: Can you explain what you mean by "the original unicodes of programs?"
[09:37] <a_l_e> zzl: i guess you are lookig for a good editor...
[09:38] <zzl> no
[09:38] <Abracadabra> ActionParsnip: gksu ?
[09:38] <zzl> there's this one program in like chinese or something that I'm trying to run
[09:38] <ActionParsnip> Abracadabra: its for gui apps like gedit and the like, sudo is only for cli apps like apt-get, mv etc
[09:38] <zzl> it's an exe file I'm running under wine
[09:38] <ActionParsnip> zzl: o you want to decompile?
[09:38] <Abracadabra> and why are different Linux using different commands ? ... I am installing Ubuntu ad Debian on the one hand, and trying to install RedHat and Fedora on the other
[09:38] <zzl> what is that?
[09:39] <xnv> zzl: Then it's wine you have to worry about, not the Linux distro.
[09:39] <zzl> any good alternatives?
[09:39] <Abracadabra> ActionParsnip, I want to use the CLI whenever possible
[09:39] <a_l_e> zzl: just go to a wine forum or channel :-)
[09:39] <zzl> ohh
[09:39] <xnv> zzl: There is a #winehq channel
[09:39] <a_l_e> zzl: or google for wine chinese :-)
[09:39] <Bangers> Is there a top for X windows?
[09:39] <zzl> should've though of that!!
[09:40] <bazhang> zzl, also appdb
[09:40] <a_l_e> zzl: but i don't think chineses make good wine :-)
[09:40] <bazhang> !appdb
[09:40] <ActionParsnip> Abracadabra: ubuntu anddebian are debian based, redhat and fedora are rpm based, 2 different branches of linux
[09:40] <Accuracy> noooooooooooooo not again!
[09:40] <Accuracy> I logged out and logged back in
[09:40] <Accuracy> and now gnome is broken again
[09:40] <Accuracy> I hate hardy so much
[09:41] <zzl> are those going to work perfectly in displaying the characters correctly?
[09:41] <ActionParsnip> Accuracy: you considered a different desktop, like fluxbox or xfce or kde
[09:41] <evilbug> what's a good ubuntu to install on an eeepc?

[09:42] <ActionParsnip> evilbug: you can always upgrade to it, check it out
[09:43] <ActionParsnip> Bangers: w32codecs
[09:43] <Abracadabra> ActionParsnip, how many different branches of Linux are there ? ....and how can I find out what the differences are between them (so, for eg, if I wanna to apt-get, what is the equivalent for Fedora...etc) ?
[09:43] <a_l_e> vitim: we hackers have already taken over that channel!
[09:43] <evilbug> ActionParsnip- thanks. i'm looking into getting an eeepc and i'd like to stick with xubuntu (since that's what i'm using now). you think it's a good/better idea to install ubuntu server and take it from there?

[09:43] <McNulty> anyone know why PECL things would fail with 'phpize failed', if the phpize binary is where it's meant to be?
[09:43] <ActionParsnip> evilbug: why server?
[09:44] <evilbug> and install everything separately.
[09:44] <evilbug> ActionParsnip- so i start with the server, then i install a DE, etc.
[09:45] <Abracadabra> ActionParsnip, a_l_e, ty both for your help.....gonna do some reading.....will be back in a bit with more questions ;)
[09:45] <a_l_e> Abracadabra: good luck!

[09:46] <a_l_e> Abracadabra: and remember: start simple (you've first bought a computer with windows preinstalled...)
[09:46] <ActionParsnip> evilbug: eeexubuntu installs everything you need and is made specifically for the eee so has all the drivers and whatnot
[09:46] <evilbug> ActionParsnip- ok, thanks.
[09:47] <belendax> how can I unzip files with password from bash ?

[09:48] <omnivor> DCC SEND 88888888888888888
[09:49] <a_l_e> belendax: i mean: have you read what the man page of unzip says about passwords?
[09:49] <Bangers> apt-get install w32codecs wont let me install it, do i have to enable unrestricted packages?
[09:50] <wers> i downloaded tarballs from mozilla (i dont want to install from the repos). How do i install them?

[09:55] <Dethray> Keep getting an inout/output error during an install on my desktop.  Seems like it is borking right after the creation of the partitions.  Can't seem to get passed it
[09:56] <ActionParsnip> Dethray: what you using to partition?
[09:56] <NickieFerrante> this may be somewhat a strange question...but is there any way that I can have time-specific desktop backgrounds? i.e, I want to have a picture of clouds etc during the day, sunsets at dusk and a night-time scene in the evening
[09:57] <Dethray> cfdisk
[09:57] <Guest4801> hi all
[09:57] <Dethray> then fdisk
[09:57] <Dethray> then I booted to gparted and partitioned there

[09:57] <Dethray> Yes
[09:57] <bullgard4> Synaptic marks the DEB program package linux-doc-2.6.25 with the Ubuntu logo. Does this mean that Debian  provides a different documentation for Linux kernel 2.6.25?
[09:57] <ActionParsnip> NickieFerrante: i know how to do it in fluxbox
[09:58] <ActionParsnip> NickieFerrante: id look at command line changing the wallpaper, then make some bash scripts and cron them to run

[10:00] <ActionParsnip> wendelin: in what way?
[10:01] <Skyrail> ActionParsnip: I've tried using Grub which messed it all up in the first place, it's getting to be a pain now because I can't just select which OS I want to boot into, when I last setup Grub it messed up something and Windows won't load anymore :|
[10:01] <ActionParsnip> Skyrail: then add the winslows guff to menu.lst
[10:01] <Bangers> help, w32codecs wont install
[10:01] <Bangers> I've used the guide, adding mediabuntu etc and the GPG Key
[10:01] <ActionParsnip> Bangers: did you tab complete its name?
[10:01] <rw> I'm trying to learn "ruby" using an online tutorial. It said, use the command "which ruby" to see if it's installed and what version. The command doesn't list anything for me. Is ruby installed in Ubuntu 8.04.1?
[10:01] <Bangers> ActionParsnip: what do you mean
[10:02] <ActionParsnip> Bangers: did you sudo apt-get update
[10:02] <wendelin> Well, I think the problems is by a the missing package gnome-desktop-enviroment. I can not install this, althoug I let dpkg-reconfigure run.
[10:02] <Bangers> ActionParsnip: yes
[10:02] <Skyrail> ActionParsnip: I've added it, it's there
[10:02] <LSD|Ninja> rw: Try searchin Synaptic for it
[10:02] <Bangers> I ran this which I got from google which should do it all for me: sudo wget http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/hardy.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install medibuntu-keyring && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install libdvdcss2 && sudo apt-get install w32codecs
[10:02] <wers> how do I install sunbird 0.8 on hardy?

[10:03] <evilbug_> what's a good terminal instant messaging app?
[10:04] <wendelin> Any hints?
[10:04] <ActionParsnip> evilbugwhich protocol?
[10:04] <evilbug_> ActionParsnip- AIM, Yahoo, MSN, ICQ.
[10:04] <ActionParsnip> wendelin: sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install <whatever you are missing>
[10:04] <a_l_e> ActionParsnip: i can't find a x11-core-fonts package... but i remember having the fonts packages installed as a collaterale effect of another x11/xorg package...
[10:04] <evilbug_> ActionParsnip- so pretty much like a terminal pidgin.
[10:04] <LSD|Ninja> evilbug_: bitlbee + irssi :P
[10:05] <evilbug_> but irssi is IRC :(
[10:05] <LSD|Ninja> evilbug_: read up on what bitlbee does ;)
[10:05] <wendelin> E: could not find gnome-desktop-enviroment
[10:05] <wols> evilbug_: but bitlbee makes it IM capable
[10:05] <evilbug_> LSD|Ninja- thanks.
[10:05] <wols> wendelin: ubuntu-desktop
[10:05] <ActionParsnip> evilbug_: finch seems to fit the bill, ive not used it though
[10:05] <wbinns> evilbug_:  have you looked at finch? http://pidgin.im/about/
[10:06] <wols> evilbug_: centericq maybe
[10:06]  * ActionParsnip hi5s wbinns
[10:06] <wendelin> wols: Is already installed.
[10:06] <evilbug_> wwooooowwwwwwwww, many apps X_X
[10:06] <wbinns> hi
[10:06] <LSD|Ninja> bitlbee is just an IRC IM gateway, any IRC client will work with it but if you want terminal then irssi is by far and away the way to go
[10:06]  * evilbug_ is overwhelmed with the abundance of terminal IM protocols...
[10:06] <wols> wendelin: then what is your problem?
[10:07] <ActionParsnip> evilbug_: welcome to choice and freedom
[10:07] <evilbug_> ActionParsnip- in all fairness, i WAS exagerating a bit.
[10:08] <evilbug_> ActionParsnip- i'm not that overwhelmed. i was overwhelmed when i first had to make a choice of what linux to start with X_X now that was overwhelming.
[10:09] <ganiere> bonjour
[10:09] <wendelin> Actually, I can not open my Applications Menu. I think this caused by the missing package gnome-desktop-enviroment. But Synaptic tells the dependency gnome-keyring-manager is not installable.
[10:09] <evilbug_> ca va.
[10:09] <evilbug_> wendelin- i think a "sudo apt-get -f install" should fix things.
[10:09] <ActionParsnip> evilbug_: oui, ca va bien, et toi?
[10:09] <Bangers> Im following this guide for w32codecs but it doesnt work: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu
[10:10] <ActionParsnip> wendelin: or sudo apt-get --reinstall install <gnome whatever>
[10:10] <evilbug_> ActionParsnip- i was talking to ganiere, he said "bonjour".
[10:10] <ganiere> jz suis la pour la 1er foi,jpige rien
[10:10] <evilbug_> ActionParsnip- :P not EVERYTHING is about you.
[10:10] <Bangers> I installed medibuntu repos, GPG keys then everything it says but the w32codecs install fails STILL

[10:13] <brez> Hi!
[10:13] <ActionParsnip> wols: i did ask ;)
[10:13] <ActionParsnip> !hi | brez
[10:13] <brez> question: like on windows, when I install a program, I find it in Program Files, when I install something on ubuntu, where's the folder, or what is it called :)?
[10:13] <brez> Hello!
[10:14] <wols> brez: there is no such single folder. dpkg -L <package>  | less
[10:14] <brez> well, for exp
[10:14] <brez> Extract pevents.conf (and optionally colors.conf) to your XChat profile directory
[10:14] <wols> brez: in linux, files are installed in different places
[10:14] <ActionParsnip> brez: its everywhere man, apps use librarys that are dotted all over the place then the main binary will sit in /bin or /usr/bin
[10:15] <ActionParsnip> brez: there is no program files equiv
[10:15] <wols> brez: ~/.xchat or such
[10:15] <moncojhr> yoyoyo
[10:15] <wols> brez: profiles and settings for your user are in your $home only
[10:15] <ActionParsnip> brez: app config is done per user and is stored in your home dir (~/)
[10:15] <moncojhr> just put on the new ubuntu, and internet speeds are FUCKED IN THE ASS
[10:15] <hischild> brez, profile directories are user specific. That means that they will normally be in your home directory, also known as ~
[10:15] <brez> ah
[10:15] <wols> system wide config is in /etc, binaries in /usr/bin and a few other places, libraries in /usr/lib and others, etc
[10:15] <ActionParsnip> brez: if you go to your ~/ and type ls -a you will see all the hidden configs
[10:16] <moncojhr> what the fuck is going on i get like 0.04kb/s
[10:16] <hischild> moncojhr, there can be multiple things, such as a slow network in general, other pc's that are downloading or a misconfigured network card.
[10:16] <brez> confused :)
[10:17] <brez> still nodea where my xchat profile would be :D
[10:17] <moncojhr> vista/fedora worked fine
[10:17] <wols> brez: you got told several times. in your home directory
[10:17] <moncojhr> on the exact same machine
[10:17] <hischild> brez, go to places and then click home. Then press ctrl+h and look for xchat
[10:17] <moncojhr> the network problem seems to be system wide
[10:17] <brez> oh
[10:18] <ActionParsnip> moncojhr: reboot your router, maybe theres a tweak for yur nic to make it groovier
[10:18] <moncojhr> i tried already
[10:18] <brez> Thanks :D
[10:18] <moncojhr> 0.4kb/s compared to my normal 1.5mb/s

[10:22] <hischild> Ubuntu_noob, 1. go to system administration and then synaptic package manager. 2. They'll have shortcuts in your menu.
[10:22] <ActionParsnip> Ubuntu_noob: use synaptic in the menus
[10:22] <Ubuntu_noob> sudo apt-get pac.tar -o ?
[10:22] <hischild> brez, not all new people like console ways.
[10:22] <brez> im new, that's the only way I know
[10:23] <brez> haha, what am I missing?
[10:23] <hischild> Ubuntu_noob, and about the third one you'll have to be more specific.

[10:24] <brez> ;p

[10:24] <Ubuntu_noob> hischild: yes, and ifconfig don't work
[10:24] <wols> Ubuntu_noob: ifconfig can change MAC
[10:24] <wols> Ubuntu_noob: what ifconfig command did you try?
[10:24] <hischild> Ubuntu_noob, ifconfig will work. Please share the command you tried with us.
[10:24] <rtz3463> Ubuntu_noob: ifconfig _does_ work. you have to set mac while the interface is down.
[10:25] <ActionParsnip> Ubuntu_noob: you can change it in /etc/network/interfaces but id get use to the system before taking on any massive projects

[10:25] <Ubuntu_noob> SIOCSIFFLAGS Error
[10:25] <Ubuntu_noob> and i don't want to mess with BIOS
[10:26] <hischild> Ubuntu_noob, try not to use so many enters please. do you still have that console open?
[10:26] <Ubuntu_noob> no
[10:26] <Ubuntu_noob> i'm using windows, as if i want to have internet connection i need to change mac
[10:27] <ActionParsnip> Ubuntu_noob: you'll need sudo to do that sort of jazz
[10:27] <anormallu> hi .... i have freezing cpu ... xorg process have 100% ... what can i do?
[10:27] <ikonia> Ubuntu_noob: your mac address should be the same in windows and ubuntu
[10:27] <Penmaster> g
[10:28] <hischild> Ubuntu_noob, ifconfig eth0 down will make sure it's down. Run ifconfig and it shouldn't show anymore to check. Then use << ifconfig eth0 hw ether 1a:2b:3c:4d:5e:6f >> to change it to that MAC (without the << and >> ofcourse)
[10:28] <Ubuntu_noob> ActionParsnip: i know this is why i want to ask how to do it ;:D
[10:28] <ActionParsnip> ikonia: you can change it in registry
[10:28] <hischild> Ubuntu_noob, then lastly you have to get it back up with ifconfig eth0 up
[10:28] <ikonia> ActionParsnip: yes, but he shouldn't need to
[10:28] <hischild> ActionParsnip, he's saying that it should just be the same with windows and ubuntu.
[10:28] <Ubuntu_noob> hischild: i did, and it says SIOSIFFLAGS Error
[10:28] <ikonia> hischild: and it should be default
[10:28] <needhelp> Can anyone help me to get sound work on ubuntu please? I hear no sound, and I see no errors. Here is my configs: http://paste.ubuntu.com/39061/

[10:31] <oddalot> windows users can do more than linux users
[10:31] <oddalot> that is why there are so many viruses
[10:32] <ActionParsnip> oddalot: not if they are created as users which they should be, idiots run apps as admin
[10:32] <Flynsarmy> ActionParsnip, Thanks
[10:32] <ActionParsnip> Flynsarmy: super websearch powers to the rescue
[10:33] <hischild> ActionParsnip, any user, even with the lowest permissions, can do more then normal users that run linux.
[10:33] <Flynsarmy> ActionParsnip, Yea, i found the page just after i hit the enter key heh
[10:33] <ActionParsnip> hischild: again, depends on config and permissions

[10:35] <yaazel> Hey guys...when I run a ./configure script while installing through source, I gives the following error:-----  checking if compiler supports -Wl,-rpath,... yes checking build system type... Invalid configuration `./configure': machine `./configure' not recognized configure: error: /bin/bash ./config.sub ./configure failed ----- can any one please tell me why am I getting this error.
[10:35] <pradeep240484> wipro wep
[10:35] <hischild> ActionParsnip, even so, due to how windows responds to activity it's much more insecure and any user that isn't a power user isn't going to go search in group policy to just turn something off.
[10:35] <needhelp> Need help! Sound device is detected by Ubuntu, but there is no soundoutput anywhere. I have ofcourse checked the connections and volumecontrols.
[10:36] <hischild> !sound | needhelp

[10:36] <needhelp> hischild: Thanks, but I have read the links already. My soundsetup is at: http://paste.ubuntu.com/39061/

[11:01] <Slart> Omar87: you might need to install some other drivers for your graphics card
[11:01] <xukun> moncojhr, I have only 2 disks so I think raid1
[11:02] <gee_> what now
[11:02] <ActionParsnip> gee_: tbh im just websearching as i dont have an ipod

[11:04] <artemis> hi all
[11:04] <ActionParsnip> gee_: is it in disk mode?
[11:04] <Slart> Omar87: you might have had a kernel update.. if you installed the graphics driver manually you might have to do it again
[11:04] <artemis> thx for help with mac :D it's working :D
[11:05] <gee_> No it is not
[11:05] <ActionParsnip> gee_: then its not a disk so it wont mount
[11:05] <xukun> moncojhr, I did not sure but wols said that I should better use software raid
[11:05] <gee_> So how do i put it in Disk Mode?
[11:05] <ActionParsnip> gee_: yes
[11:05] <moncojhr> xukun: you can use software raid, but you wont be able to read it in windows
[11:05] <Omar87> Slart, I didn't install a graphics driver at all. But yet, it was working just great.
[11:06] <xukun> moncojhr, I,m not using windows
[11:06] <Slart> Omar87: well.. something changed..
[11:06] <Slart> Omar87: what graphics card do you have?
[11:06] <gee_> Action, i meant how do i put it in Disk Mode
[11:06] <ActionParsnip> gee_: no idea, i dont use apples garbage, sorry
[11:06] <moncojhr> xukun: ok it should be reletively easy to set up software raid, but i dont know anything about it, sorry
[11:06] <gee_> It is fine, thanks for the help guys. Peace.
[11:06] <ActionParsnip> gee_: should then mount once its a disk
[11:07] <Omar87> Slart, I have an Intel. I wouldn't have bought this machine myself if wasn't my brother that bought it for me, though. :)

[11:07] <hischild> xukun: alternate
[11:07] <aieverest> hi all
[11:07] <Slart> Omar87: hmm.. intel graphics cards are usually well supported.. it seems like such a windows solution but have you tried restarting the machine?
[11:07] <aieverest> im left from windows..

[11:11] <artemis> ActionParsnip, but i'm a noob :D
[11:12] <ActionParsnip> user881: you need to kill off x and make the run file executable, then run it and update your xorg.conf manually (afaik)

[11:13] <artemis> 1 question what should i do to renew dhcp ?

[11:13] <stapel> how do I restore the mount point of a samba share after the I rebooted the windows pc hosting the shared folder?
[11:13] <ActionParsnip> artemis: sudo /etc/init.d/network restart
[11:13] <Omar87> Slart, I just did a reboot, but the problem is still there.
[11:14] <stapel> ﻿how do I restore the mount point of a samba share after I rebooted the windows pc hosting the shared folder?
[11:14] <ActionParsnip> stapel: did you mount it with a command or is it in your /etc/fstab?
[11:14] <artemis> ActionParsnip: i love you man :*
[11:14] <stapel> it is in fstab
[11:14] <ActionParsnip> artemis: millions do ;). explains my itchy crotch
[11:14] <ActionParsnip> ahahahahhaa
[11:14] <stapel> hehehe
[11:14] <ActionParsnip> stapel: sudo mount -a
[11:15] <Slart> Omar87: hm.. I'm not very good with intel graphics card.. perahaps someone else in the channel can help you
[11:15] <stapel> mmm...let me try quickly
[11:15] <ActionParsnip> Omar87: tried in #compiz
[11:15] <user881> ActionParsnip, are nvidia drivers known to be this problematic?
[11:16] <ActionParsnip> user881: nvidia are the best drivers
[11:16] <bazhang> user881, which card number
[11:16] <ActionParsnip> user881: if you got a whizzy card you want nvidia-new
[11:16] <user881> bazhang GeForce6200
[11:16] <ActionParsnip> user881: nvidia-glx should do you
[11:16] <gee_> Hi sorry i am back guys. But whats the command to mount an external drive?
[11:17] <user881> ActionParsnip, will that do 3d acceleration?
[11:17] <ActionParsnip> user881: indeed, ive got nearly the same card on my mobo :)
[11:18] <ActionParsnip> gee_: sudo mkdir /media/ipod; sudo mount /dev/<some name> /media/ipod
[11:18] <stapel> ActionParsnip: Nope, does not work...problem is the windows machine was rebooted while the share was mounted
[11:18] <ActionParsnip> gee_: replace <somename> with the dev that relates to your device, you can find it out with sudo fdisk -l
[11:18] <kaushal> hi
[11:19] <ActionParsnip> stapel: then id sudo umount the mount then remount, or reboot your linux box
[11:19] <gee_> thanks action
[11:19] <kaushal> I am using Network Manager to connect to OpenVPN Server
[11:19] <ActionParsnip> is anyone keeping my score :D
[11:19] <kaushal> after connecting to Network Manager I need to add the sudo ip route add 10.0.0.0/8 via 10.10.50.12 dev tap0
[11:20] <kaushal> is there a way to automate it
[11:20] <ActionParsnip> kaushal: man route
[11:20] <ActionParsnip> kaushal: remember to make it permanent ;)
[11:20] <user881> ActionParsnip, much appreciated. have installed that, am now restarting.
[11:20] <kaushal> ActionParsnip: actually I want to add it only when I am connected to openvpn server
[11:21] <kaushal> I mean add it after i have connected to openvpn server
[11:21] <ActionParsnip> kaushal: make a script and maybe you could have it run when the vpn connects. ive not played with vpn in linux
[11:21] <gee_> !paste | gee
[11:21] <ActionParsnip> kaushal: maybe theres a post connection script bit you can add
[11:22] <ActionParsnip> kaushal: or just manually run it
[11:22] <kaushal> ActionParsnip: Much appreciated
[11:22] <kaushal> can you give me some examples
[11:22] <gee_> http://paste.ubuntu.com/39080/
[11:22] <gee_> action thats my fdisk -l

[11:25] <gee_> Since my drive is not showing up
[11:25] <ActionParsnip> stapel: are you currently cd'ed into the dir?
[11:25] <ActionParsnip> stapel: cd ~/;sudo umount /path/to/mount
[11:26] <linxeh> stapel: chances are one or more processes have that drive open - maybe you have a nautilus window open on the desktop or something
[11:26] <ganesh> what are the packages required for biometric
[11:27] <thomasite> How do I use OooLatex? :( I'm having a hard time installing it.
[11:27] <ActionParsnip> !info biometric
[11:28] <stapel> Action: It looks like "sudo umount -l /mount/point" did the trick --just for future reference

[12:03] <jokoon> hello :) how can I share files (shared folder) between 2 ubuntu distros ? (xfce or gnome)... with ssh ? (nfs needs some server setup looks quite sophisticated for me) sshfs ?
[12:03] <undef> jokoon: well, if you don't mind putting commands you can use sftp or scp
[12:04] <ActionParsnip> user881: ill give you mine and you can compare
[12:04] <ActionParsnip> user881: http://pastebin.com/f2f3ce651
[12:04] <user881> ActionParsnip, thanks. is this issue specific to this release of ubuntu?
[12:04] <undef> but you can use sshfs as well, though I never used and I think is harder than nfs to setup
[12:04] <ActionParsnip> user881: no idea, its just something ive seen a lot
[12:05] <ActionParsnip> user881: i run at 1024x768

[12:06] <ActionParsnip> user881: it was so much easier in gutsy as there was a nice app to set it up but it apears to have vanished despite it kicking ass
[12:06] <ActionParsnip> jokoon: sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart

[12:09] <m0rtal> hi guys
[12:09] <ActionParsnip> AzizLight: like lecture notes?
[12:09] <jorge_> i have the 2.6.22-15-generic kernel
[12:09] <ActionParsnip> user881: it was dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:09] <jorge_> and the package virtualbox-ose-modules-2.6.22-14-generic
[12:10] <jorge_> and so that can't work
[12:10] <AzizLight> ActionParsnip: like sticky notes or tomboy notes, but exclusively over the command line
[12:10] <garrett_> jhello
[12:10] <m0rtal> any idea why system can't see some of the partitions while fdisk does?
[12:10] <jorge_> how can I fix this?
[12:10] <ActionParsnip> AzizLight: you could use screenlets and have notes that way
[12:11] <bullgard4> What is a 'Platform Device'? (As displayed by the 'Device Manager' program)
[12:11] <bazhang> jorge_, install the correct one via synaptic
[12:11] <ActionParsnip> jorge_: whats the problem? you just stated what you have
[12:11] <AzizLight> ActionParsnip: what's screenlets? :S
[12:11] <bazhang> !screenlets
[12:12] <bazhang> AzizLight, ^^
[12:12] <ActionParsnip> AzizLight: go find out via your favourite search engine
[12:12] <bazhang> AzizLight, install from synaptic
[12:12] <jorge_> but the last one in the repositories is older I think
[12:12] <bazhang> jorge_, install the 15
[12:13] <jorge_> from the official page
[12:13] <jorge_> ?
[12:13] <AzizLight> ActionParsnip: what if I don't have a desktop, just a command line? :P
[12:13] <user881> ActionParsnip, ah yes ive seen people posting that it no longer seems to modify the screen resolution.
[12:13] <bazhang> jorge_, no from synaptic package manager
[12:13] <Offline> Hello Guys. I cannot activate visual effects in ubuntu Gutsy. and a message appears saying "the composite extension is not available".
[12:13] <jorge_> in the repositories don't exist package for 15
[12:14] <bazhang> jorge_, update your system
[12:14] <ActionParsnip> AzizLight: then i have no idea
[12:14] <AboSamoor> I have Desktop ubuntu CD, can I run the alternate CD mode using this CD ?
[12:14] <ActionParsnip> user881: yep, thats the thing that sucks most :(
[12:14] <ActionParsnip> AboSamoor: no, you need the alternative cd
[12:14] <AzizLight> ActionParsnip: ok..thanks anyway for the help
[12:15] <ActionParsnip> AzizLight: no man
[12:15] <ActionParsnip> np*
[12:15] <AboSamoor> ActionParsnip, thanks
[12:16] <ActionParsnip> AboSamoor: why do you want the alternative install?
[12:16] <jorge_> the update system works properly, I alway had installed from zero but this computer is in the work and I have some critical things
[12:16] <ActionParsnip> AboSamoor: desktop is fine for most
[12:16] <AboSamoor> ActionParsnip, I have P3 PC, it is very slow and i only have the desktop CD
[12:17] <ActionParsnip> p3 is ok, how much ram?
[12:17] <grobda24> Hello. How do I check if a package comes as default with Hardy ? Search hardy main ?
[12:18] <bazhang> grobda24, which one
[12:18] <m0rtal> ppl, any idea why system can't see some of the partitions while fdisk does? i.e., I can't mount it, can't format: "No such file or directory". But fdisk sees it and shows partition type...

[12:19] <Offline> Hello Guys. I cannot activate visual effects in ubuntu Gutsy. and a message appears saying "the composite extension is not available". maybe no one notice it
[12:19] <ERICH_MOBILE> m0rtal, is it in fstab?
[12:19] <ActionParsnip> m0rtal: how are you mounting the partition?
[12:19] <m0rtal> it is in fstab, but system still doesn't see it!
[12:19] <ActionParsnip> Offline: have you installed your graphics driver?
[12:20] <ActionParsnip> m0rtal: can we see your fstab please?
[12:20] <ActionParsnip> !paste | fstab

[12:25] <abh2> how can I install alfresco on ubuntu
[12:25] <bazhang> divya123, that is web based; nothing to do with ubuntu

[12:27] <ActionParsnip> Acorn: thats a good place to start searching
[12:27] <journey4712> unfortunatly, wine is not windows, wine is attempting to emulate a partially documented API, bugs and all . . . have you considered running a virtual windows host on your ubuntu through virtualbox?
[12:27] <the_eraser> ActionParsnip: you know how to set bg color?
[12:27] <bazhang> http://www.odesk.com/community/downloads#linux divya123

[12:27] <Acorn> ActionParsnip: nope, nothing changed
[12:28] <journey4712> virtualbox is a way to run windows as part of linux
[12:28] <divya123> @bazhang tried that also not getting done properly

[12:37] <bazhang> KiDFlaSh, no.
[12:37] <bazhang> KiDFlaSh, this is not related to workspaces
[12:37] <ValentineX> @actionparsnip what is the command
[12:37] <ActionParsnip> warzone

[12:42] <ValentineX> bazhang:  hmm ok thanks
[12:43] <gd1> hi, I'm near to solve a problem, but I need your help
[12:43] <gd1> I can install Ubuntu 7.10 but not 8.04 because of a kernel incompatibility
[12:44] <k31to> is there a way to make rhythmbox show the artwork embedded in an mp3 file?
[12:44] <gd1> with my hardware
[12:44] <MikeSeth> k31to: mp3 supports embedded artwork? @_@
[12:44] <gd1> how can I install 8.04 with OLD kernel (2.6.22-14-generic)
[12:44] <k31to> MikeSeth: yes
[12:44] <gd1> that wonderful old kernel works fine with my hardware
[12:46] <k31to> MikeSeth: using EasyTag or some other media tagger you can choose an image to embed
[12:46] <gd1> no ideas?
[12:46] <gd1> like updating 7.10 to 8.04
[12:46] <gd1> keeping old kernel?
[12:46] <afriendforyou_> anyone does know a chat support for ubuntu?
[12:46] <Teisei> Can somebody tell me what to do? I can't use both cores of my processor because if I do that I'm unable to boot to Ubuntu (7.04, 7.10, 8.04, 8.10) normally ... I will get kernel panics and cpu failures
[12:47] <bullgard4> What is a 'Platform Device'? (As displayed by the 'Device Manager' program)
[12:47] <Teisei> My computer is Lenovo Thinkpad T60
[12:47] <MikeSeth> Teisei: SMP kernel?
[12:47] <Teisei> SMP ?
[12:47] <Teisei> Generic
[12:47] <MikeSeth> now that I think of it I have Thinkpad Z60m and it only runs a single core too
[12:47] <emorris> hi, where are logon passwords stored in Ubuntu?
[12:48] <wols> emorris: /etc/shadow
[12:48] <Teisei> If I enable Core Multi Processing from BIOS I can't even boot to Ubuntu Live CD
[12:48] <rtz3463> emorris: /etc/shadow, but they aren't stored there in plain text
[12:48] <rtz3463> emorris: unix systems only store password hashes
[12:49] <MikeSeth> Teisei: I havent tried to run it multicore so I don't know
[12:49] <ERICH_MOBILE> when i use a usb mouse and its plugged in before i power on the mouse works fine. after a restart though, the mouse lags really bad and is unusable. Any ideas?
[12:50] <emorris> wols, rtz3463: thanks. i was pretty sure they would be encrypted. i just needed them to check how secure they were
[12:50] <rtz3463> emorris: hash != encryption
[12:50] <Teisei> I tried Ubuntu 6.06 Live CD and it actually booted ! But any newer Live CD's, as well as the installed systems, don't work with Core Multi Processing enabled ... I can only boot to recovery mode
[12:50] <Teisei> I wonder if there's a problem with kernels newer than what's in 6.06 Live CD ... or then it is my hardware
[12:51] <Teisei> But I've heard many people have same problems
[12:51] <emorris> rtz3463: you know what i meant
[12:51] <Toth> hey all
[12:51] <rtz3463> emorris: a hash function is a one-way function, cannot be reversed. more than one password can result in the same hash value

[12:53] <Acorn> Could someone help me get my drives mounted? I'm running the live cd and I get an error when I try and mount: http://img152.imageshack.us/img152/6377/screenshotkx5.jpg
[12:53] <Xteven>    
[12:54] <wols> Acorn: if it's uncleanly unmounted before run windows again and let it chkdsk
[12:54] <wols> if it's already mounted see the output of "mount"
[12:55] <Acorn> I need to reinstall windows, I get BSOD straight after starting
[12:55] <Acorn> I just wanted to use the live CD to copy over some files before I reinstall
[12:55] <wols> boot to recovery console anf chkdsk there
[12:55] <Acorn> what's recovery console?
[12:56] <juro> on a dapper server install, I need to upgrade to libcompress-zlib-perl (>= 1.42), when I do a apt-get install libcompress-zlib-perl, I get a message that it is up to date (1.41-1). how can I force this?
[12:56] <wols> a windows thing. ##windows
[12:56] <bazhang> grobda24, yes
[12:56] <azexian> can someone tell me which nvidia driver is best for performance, official, or the debian package?
[12:56] <wols> juro: you can't. why do you install dapper still?
[12:56] <Slart> azexian: the binary, proprietary one
[12:56] <Acorn> all I want to do is be able to copy my files over then format the disk, why does it have to have anything to do with windows?
[12:56] <wols> azexian: NOT the one from nvidia.com
[12:56] <LamerC> hello
[12:56] <azexian> Slart: you mean the one from nvidia.com?
[12:57] <Toth> My Wintv-HVR-930 doesn't work anyone can help me please. Not recognized ?
[12:57] <wols> Acorn: cause it'S uncleanly unmounted and there is no fsck for ntfs
[12:57] <azexian> wols: I've used that one before with no problems, i just got my 8600GT, and I want to get the most out of it
[12:57] <Slart> azexian: well.. it's the same one.. but there is one available from the repos
[12:57] <rtz3463> wols: shouldn't it be read only mountable then?
[12:57] <Acorn> but my windows installation is broken so I cant use it to fix it
[12:57] <juro> wols, productive server that has been running for about 2.5 years
[12:57] <wols> azexian: nvidia.com one breaks your package management. not supported here
[12:57] <juro> wols, so I can't update MailScanner (which relies on the newer package?)
[12:57] <LamerC> when creating partition it appears on desktop but that is not desired.  I added to fstab the partition, but what to do to prevent it from showing on the desktop
[12:57] <wols> juro: backport it yourself then
[12:57] <azexian> wols: breaks your package management? what are you talking about?
[12:58] <wols> azexian: what I told you
[12:58] <juro> wols, what? MailScanner?
[12:58] <azexian> Slart: is the beta one any good?
[12:58] <wols> juro: no the package which needs to be 1.4.2
[12:58] <pawan> hi
[12:58] <azexian> wols: it doesn't access your packages, how can it break them?
[12:58] <juro> wols, how do I backport that?
[12:58] <wols> azexian: it overwrites files without asking
[12:58] <wols> !backport
[12:58] <pawan> !hi
[12:59] <Slart> azexian: beta?.. I would stay away from beta drivers unless you really really need them
[12:59] <azexian> wols: it does warn not to install nvidia-glx-* first, because it will replace them
[12:59] <pawan> !ps2
[12:59] <the_eraser> anyone know if you can get tabs in xterm?
[13:00] <wols> azexian: there is no "nvidia-glx" with nvidia.com drivers. those are are ubuntu ones which have that package
[13:00] <grobda24> bazhang, ok, thanks. I'm trying to find a dialog maker for scripts installed by default. There whiptail for the console. I wonder if there's a GUI one ?
[13:00] <azexian> wols: i know, i know, but if oyu keep it installed, then it will replace packages, that's why you install one or the other
[13:01] <rtz3463> the_eraser: xterm can't do tabs. you might want to look at screen. it is a terminal multiplexer, which can run in xterm as well as any other terminal.

[13:02] <TJ-Linux> Hi, I'm having a problem with grub and dual booting.  When Ubuntu was installed, I was unable to boot windows with the grub commands: root (hd0,0), chainloader +1 ... I would get the message NTLDR is missing.  I found that by adding the "boot" command to the end, it would work fine.  But it seems as if now, it is skipping the NTLDR, because it skips the windows boot.ini which states that I should be presented with a menu with the option
[13:02] <azexian> wols: if you say so, but i've used it before, no problems, clearly a banned topic here
[13:02] <rtz3463> the_eraser: screen is better anyway
[13:02] <ValentineX> oh I did that from paste.ubuntu.com alreasy
[13:02] <rtz3463> the_eraser: can be detached/reattached and all that
[13:02] <wols> azexian: for your card it's not needed. and old cards like yours don't get improvements in new drivers
[13:02] <azexian> wols: the 8600GT is not an old card
[13:02] <wols> azexian: it is
[13:03] <azexian> wols: no, 9 series ahve only just come out, and they are simply over clocked versions of the 8800GTS, 8600GT is still considered a good card
[13:03] <the_eraser> rtz3463: yea i used screen before, but graphical tabs would be nicer than ctrl-a-... all the time :)
[13:03] <ValentineX> Hot to use paste.ubuntu.com for multi lines
[13:03] <ValentineX> how*
[13:04] <wols> azexian: it is old and it's a shit card. I own one. 17th april 2007
[13:04] <rtz3463> the_eraser: but graphical tabs won't survive a X restart
[13:04] <wols> !paste | ValentineX
[13:04] <azexian> wols: clearly you know little about gpus, they change, you can get a shit 9 series card too, and an amazing one, they vary
[13:04] <bazhang> azexian, no cursing
[13:04] <juro> crap, MailScanner keeps on restarting and all my mails are not delivered .... help!
[13:05] <azexian> bazhang: i didn't curse
[13:05] <wols> azexian: they're still faster than your 8600. not to mention the 9500gt is NOT a g92 card
[13:05] <wols> azexian: so if I were you I wouldn't tell other people they don't know anything...
[13:05] <azexian> wols: i know the speed is different, but that's not all that's in a card
[13:05] <modoc> How can I change when updatedb runs?
[13:05] <wols> azexian: your card is old and not really improved anymore by nvidia. that's it
[13:05] <azexian> wols: i didn't say you don't know anything, you wouldn't be here if you knew nothing, unless you were asking a question
[13:06] <azexian> wols: 2007 isn't that long ago anyway
[13:06] <wols> for nvidia it's LAST gen aka OLD
[13:07] <wols> if you want a card in the same price bracket they sell you a 9500 or 9600
[13:07] <wols> 8600gt is not really sold anymore
[13:07] <ValentineX> http://paste.ubuntu.com/39110/
[13:07] <azexian> wols: i looked around A LOT before getting the 8600GT, and you can't get anything as good for that price range
[13:07] <bazhang> lets take vid card chat to #ubuntu-offtopic please
[13:08] <erma91> salve
[13:09] <azexian> bazhang: wols it's ok, i think i'm finished here, i came here, i got an opinion to a question, now i'll go else where and look for other opinions, and make my own based on that,

[13:10] <rtz3463> Casao_Acer: sudo apt-get remove evolution
[13:10] <Casao_Acer> rtz3463: yes, but trying to remove evolution server says it will remove ubuntu-desktop
[13:10] <Casao_Acer> which i imagine is bad
[13:10] <rtz3463> Casao_Acer: ubuntu-desktop is just an empty package
[13:10] <hateball> Casao_Acer: It's only a meta-package
[13:10] <rtz3463> Casao_Acer: empty package with nothing but dependencies
[13:11] <Casao_Acer> Ah, ok, so it being removed isn't an issue?
[13:11] <rtz3463> Casao_Acer: so removing it won't kill your desktop

[13:15] <JediMaster> Hey guys, I've just recently completely upgraded my machine, running 8.04, and everything was fine until it asked me if I wanted to install the nvidia drivers, so did it and rebooted and now X won't start, also gives virtually no errors to speak of
[13:15] <JediMaster> it's a Geforce 8800 GTX if that helps
[13:15] <javaJake> ANTI_M: what are you trying to do?
[13:16] <Casao_Acer> How come no one ever knows about netbook remix? =(
[13:16] <murlidhar> TJ-Linux: root (hd0,0) means ubuntu is at that place ?
[13:16] <ValentineX> http://paste.ubuntu.com/39110/ look at my problem and error messages
[13:16] <Pici> ValentineX: What are you doing to get that message?
[13:16] <TJ-Linux> not, ubuntu is in hd(0,2)
[13:16] <TJ-Linux> windows is in the first partition
[13:17] <murlidhar> TJ-Linux: and where is windows ?
[13:17] <JediMaster> ahh just found the problem, I ran X and got: Your GeForce 8800 GTX graphics card does not have the necessary external power cables attached; X will not start unless this is rectified.
[13:17] <ValentineX> @pici want to share a folder on my networking
[13:17] <JediMaster> odd that the non propiratory drivers worked fine with only 1 of the 2 power cables in
[13:17] <Pici> ValentineX: How exactly are you getting that error?
[13:17] <mystyco> morning/evening
[13:17] <TJ-Linux> hd(0,0) is windows I believe and hd(0,2) is the / partition for ubuntu
[13:18] <murlidhar> put root (hd0,0) and setup (hd0,0)

[13:18] <withlzw> hi
[13:18] <murlidhar> put root (hd0,2) and setup (hd0,0)
[13:19] <murlidhar> TJ-Linux: that should be in sudo grub
[13:19] <TJ-Linux> murlidhar: ah ok let me try this
[13:19] <ValentineX> Pici:  what did you mean?
[13:20] <murlidhar> is there anything that automounts pendrives except for gnome-settings-daemon . since i am using a customised ubuntu and using only openbox . i want to see that mounted drives are shown on my desktop. how do i do that :p

[13:25] <TJ-Linux> heh, now windows doesn't boot at all, choosing the windows option in grub loads grub :-).  maybe I need to use fixmbr and fixboot in windows, then reinstall grub in the mbr

[13:40] <SilentDis> aargh, i just rebooted my machine after a few days, and my display resolution is all messed up, i can only go as high as 640x480.  Graphical tools can't be used (can't see full screen). 8.04 with nvidia restricted drivers.  dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg doesn't offer the choice i need to specifiy a resolution.  i looked at xorg.conf, and it seem very barren.  are these settings squirreld away somewhere else now?
[13:40] <murlidhar> ksbalaji: if one really wants to learn linux  . then one should go for arch linux
[13:40] <ksbalaji> I have dual boot with XP -which I seldom care to use now a daysm since wine is also doing well in my system. I plan to wipe off XP altogether.

[13:51] <JediMaster> it's running a -386
[13:51] <Pici> JediMaster: No, it doesnt.
[13:52] <Slart> JediMaster: the generic kernel should recognize all your cores
[13:52] <JediMaster> oh?
[13:52] <Pici> JediMaster: It needs -generic
[13:52] <bazhang> JediMaster, should be the generic
[13:52] <JediMaster> it's running 2.6.24-16-386
[13:52] <Slart> JediMaster: try installing a generic kernel instead
[13:52] <ganesh> i want biometric enabling package
[13:52] <JediMaster> ah ok, so linux-image-generic should point to the latest?
[13:52] <Pici> JediMaster: indeed.

[13:57] <Gnea> kaushal: reformat, reinstall
[13:57] <maverique> does ubuntu 64bit include a memtest that is capable to test memroly that is over the 32bit area?
[13:57] <damien_> is there a command i can type to download wine onto ubuntu every site i go to it wont download
[13:57] <kaushal> javaJake, i mean Network Manager
[13:57] <Gnea> maverique: memtest is 32bit only, and since it doesn't run when linux is run, it doesn't even go into 64bit mode
[13:57] <kaushal> just a package
[13:58] <javaJake> kaushal: right, if you open Synaptic and find networkmanager
[13:58] <Gnea> !wine | damien_

[14:00] <erwin> Gnea: i don't know tmobile,, sorry.. i'd just like to know how to browse files,.. nothing to do with networking
[14:00] <Gnea> damien_: open a tab and type this in: about:plugins  <-- see if it shows up there
[14:01] <Achoth> Please, can anyone just make their /boot to an archive and upload it somewhere? I accidentally removed mine
[14:01] <erwin> Casao_Acer: just like to know how i can browse files on my phone
[14:01] <gd1> hi I would like to install GRUB on sdc
[14:01] <Casao_Acer> erwin: via bluetooth or cable? if it's bluetooth, simply select browse device and pair the two. via cable, you'll have to select Mount Disk or Mass Storage when you plug in the usb cable, and that only covers the memory card
[14:01] <gd1> what's the correct name of sdc
[14:01] <gd1> hd2?
[14:01] <damien_> a hole lot of things come up i dont really understand it
[14:01] <gd1> if I install GRUB on the bad drive it's a complete mess
[14:01] <ganesh> package for Biometric
[14:01] <javaJake> damien_: just look for "Flash'
[14:02] <javaJake> damien_: anything that says "Flash"
[14:02] <gd1> how can I translate sdc to GRUB naming
[14:02] <damien_> in the tab ?
[14:02] <javaJake> damien_: in that about:plugins tab, yes
[14:02] <damien_> it doesnt show anyflash in it
[14:02] <JediMaster> gd1: (hd2) maybe?
[14:02] <erwin> Casao_Acer: via bluetooh, i have it paired but nothing comes up.. i remember before, an icon popped up in my dektop.. but now it doesn't , i dont know why..
[14:02] <gd1> yes maybe
[14:02] <gd1> but if I'm wrong?
[14:03] <Gnea> !bluetooth | erwin
[14:03] <Casao_Acer> erwin: Right cick on your Bluetooth icon in the notification area and select browse device
[14:03] <flavior> hi, how can i decompress .img?
[14:03] <JediMaster> gd1: then you can edit the line in grub if it doesn't boot?
[14:03] <javaJake> damien_: OK, then flash isn't being detected by Firefox. Did you install flashplugin-nonfree?
[14:03] <JediMaster> or is this a remote boot?
[14:03] <damien_> yes
[14:03] <gd1> no I dont' want to install grub on the wrong drive
[14:04] <JediMaster> ahh
[14:04] <gd1> it would be a mess
[14:04] <kernel> hi guys
[14:04] <JediMaster> I think you can specify /dev/sdc on grub's installer
[14:04] <gd1> it's not grub installer, is ubuntu's uone
[14:04] <gd1> *one
[14:04] <gd1> it asks you where to install GRUB
[14:04] <gd1> default is (hd0)
[14:05] <erwin> Casao_Acer: thanks got it.. i just reversed the pairing request from my phone.. when i paired using the pc, it went smooth
[14:05] <dz__> Does anyone use Avant Window Navigator?
[14:05] <gd1> I'm not sure I can specify /dev/sdc
[14:05] <prower> Hello :> Does anyone know of a way that I might be able to set up graphical access to my console from a remote SSH session? I'm logging in from a windows machine :/
[14:05] <gd1> or can I?
[14:05] <gd1> mystery
[14:05] <joaca_rj> bom dia
[14:05] <JediMaster> yay, -generic gives me 2 proessors in /proc/cpuinfo now, but X is screwed lol, next issue
[14:05] <kernel> ehi guys someone knows about download by irc?
[14:06] <damien_> is there anything els i can try ??
[14:06] <javaJake> damien_: hold on, I'm going to install it on my system and see where it went....
[14:06] <erwin> thanks
[14:06] <erwin> exit
[14:06] <damien_> kool
[14:07] <joaca_rj> someone knows if the problem with the hd in laptops is still a problem, with high Load Cycles ratings shortening the hd lifespan?
[14:07] <xbxb> Is the HD 4850 graphic chip fully supported by Ubuntu?
[14:07] <prosthetics> xbxb
[14:07] <prosthetics> dont use the normal installer
[14:07] <prosthetics> but you can get it working
[14:07] <prosthetics> i've got a 4870 working right now, with compiz
[14:08] <xbxb> prosthetics: well, is it the same procedure for a 48_5_0 ?
[14:08] <prosthetics> by default it will work from fresh install, with no beryl, but X will start.
[14:08] <prosthetics> yes xbxb , one sec i'll find the website i used
[14:08] <xbxb> prosthetics: ty
[14:08] <prosthetics> this is for latest ver
[14:08] <prosthetics> what version you using?
[14:08] <xbxb> you mean Ubuntu version?
[14:10] <prosthetics> for example, im using 8.04 (think its called hardy)
[14:10] <prosthetics> there are different versions
[14:10] <prosthetics> fiesty is another
[14:10] <Pici> !enter
[14:10] <xbxb> prosthetics: currently I'm only using Ubuntu for my server, but I want to switch from Win to Ubuntu, so I can download whatever desktop version seems good. What would you recommend?
[14:10] <prosthetics> lol pici, message received..
[14:10] <prosthetics> xbxb, how stable do you need it to be?
[14:10] <xbxb> xbxb: very stable :)
[14:11] <xbxb> omg, I meant prosthetics
[14:11] <prosthetics> owk, well then, i use the newest ver
[14:11] <prosthetics> but i spose you should use an older

[14:17] <GnuGustavo> Mornin' for everyone.. Someone who can help me with just one question about ubuntu server? Excuse my bad english... my main language is Spanish
[14:17] <ka> hi ..i installed ubuntu on a tiny laptop i rcently bought .. it came with vista and i installed ubuntu coz i would make it more efficient .. thing is this pc is a hcl mileep .. basically its an 800 MHZ, 1 gb ram ,7 inch 80 gb
[14:17] <Denise> how come I cant see the sources lists?
[14:18] <Melchmon> hey guys is there a terminal comand that will go through and delete lines of a txt file?
[14:18] <Pici> GnuGustavo: Just ask
[14:18] <Pici> Denise: Hmm? What do you mean?
[14:19] <Denise> if I try to see them with /etc/apt/sources.list
[14:19] <perlsyntax> Is there something for linux you can make your own app for the iphone?
[14:19] <Denise> it says no authorisation
[14:19] <Pici> Denise: What command are you using?
[14:19] <GnuGustavo> Pici, how many remote conections does ubuntu server admits... simultaneously?
[14:19] <perlsyntax> ?
[14:19] <ka> hi ..i installed ubuntu on a tiny laptop i rcently bought .. it came with vista and i installed ubuntu coz i would make it more efficient .. thing is this pc is a hcl mileep .. basically its an 800 MHZ, 1 gb ram ,7 inch 80 gb .. is there anything i can tweak to make it faster ?? it hangs :(
[14:19] <javaJake> damien_: Sorry it's taking so long. :/
[14:20] <javaJake> Does anyone else here recall where the flash plugin gets installedA?
[14:20] <Melchmon> I am basicly looking for the opposite of echo
[14:20] <rtz3463> Denise: use this: less /etc/apt/sources.list
[14:20] <Pici> GnuGustavo: I would assume that would depend on what services you are providing from the server.
[14:20] <JediMaster> what's the command to bring up the X screen settings/card details?
[14:20] <Pici> Melchmon: theres many cli tools to do that, sed, awk, grep, tr...
[14:21] <Melchmon> Pici, I know grep searches. But I want to take what grep gives me and remove that line
[14:21] <rtz3463> Melchmon: grep -v ...
[14:21] <Pici> Melchmon: grep -v will return the opposite of what you search for
[14:21] <prosthetics> melch grep -v
[14:21] <bullgard4> The 'Device Manager' program on my computer lists a 'vesafb.0' platform device. What does the '.0' stand for? Is it the first of several vesafb platform devices? (But I have got only one. And the other platform devices have no .0 suffix.)
[14:23] <Melchmon> Pici, i know what -v does
[14:23] <Melchmon> Pici i just want to go through a text file and search for something and the delete that line
[14:23] <Pici> Melchmon: Perhaps you're looking sed with an inline edit?
[14:23] <GnuGustavo> Pici, Actually i have four users who log in a win server just to use an erp.... they only use 3389 port, so i want to erase that OS for this one
[14:24] <jokoon> I did a drag and drop using sftp, why is it so slow ? 11kb/s on a wireless local network
[14:24] <Melchmon> Pici,  sed you say.......i'll look at its man page thank you
[14:24] <javaJake> Melchmon: make a copy of the file, grep it, and > it to the old file?
[14:24] <javaJake> That's what I'd do :P
[14:24] <GnuGustavo> Pici, but i really don't know how many remote connections does this one admits... obviously, at the very same time
[14:25] <ka> hi ..i installed ubuntu on a tiny laptop i rcently bought .. it came with vista and i installed ubuntu coz i would make it more efficient .. thing is this pc is a hcl mileep .. basically its an 800 MHZ, 1 gb ram ,7 inch 80 gb .. is there anything i can tweak to make it faster ?? it hangs :(
[14:25] <Denise> anyway
[14:25] <Denise> i think I received a malicious video
[14:25] <Melchmon> Pici, I don't know if this is what i want. I want to just delete a line from my todo.txt file
[14:26] <Pici> GnuGustavo: You'd need to look at the documentation for whatever program you are providing, Linux in and of itself doesnt have a preset connection limit that I am aware of.
[14:27] <rtz3463> Melchmon: and you don't want to use a text editor for that?
[14:27] <Melchmon> rtz3463, i'm trying to find a comand so it become quick and easy.
[14:27] <rtz3463> Melchmon: then you have to use something like sed or grep
[14:28] <rtz3463> Melchmon: how can you identify the line? does it match a regexp?
[14:28] <Pici> sed can do with one command, but if you're just removing one line its probably overkill.
[14:28] <bullgard4> Why does lspci list two different entries "00:02:0 VGA compatible controller: i915GM" and "00:02.1 Display controller: i915GM"?
[14:28] <Melchmon> rtz3463, I am numbering the lines 1,2,3,4, etc
[14:29] <Achoth> Hello. I've accidentally removed my /boot folder, and now I can't boot my computer. Could anyone upload their /boot folder (as an archive) for me? Thanks in advance
[14:29] <rtz3463> Melchmon: and which line do you want to delete?
[14:29] <Melchmon> line 4
[14:29] <wols> Achoth: reinstall grub and then your kernel
[14:29] <Achoth> wols: How?
[14:29] <Melchmon> when i ran this comand it just deleted the file.
[14:29] <wols> Achoth: how do you install packages?
[14:29] <Melchmon>  grep -iv call todo.txt > todo.txt
[14:30] <rtz3463> Melchmon: you cannot use the same file as output
[14:30] <rtz3463> Melchmon: you have to use a temp file
[14:30] <javaJake> Achoth: Ouch. You'll need to boot into the Live CD, first off.
[14:30] <Achoth> wols: apt-get I guess, but I can't enter my OS since my /boot is gone
[14:30] <Achoth> javaJake: Already there
[14:30] <javaJake> Achoth: OK, are you online?
[14:30] <rtz3463> Melchmon: grep -iv call todo.txt > todotmp ; mv todotmp todo.txt
[14:31] <Melchmon> rtz3463, can i link the files?
[14:31] <Achoth> javaJake: Obviously :p
[14:31] <javaJake> Achoth: haha, jsut checking :)
[14:31] <r4b> can anyone recommend a lan traffic monitor? I'd like to know the bandwidth usage of the computers on my lan
[14:31] <javaJake> Achoth: OK, personally I'd update the system using Update Manager.
[14:31] <rtz3463> rtz3463: linking will not help
[14:31] <javaJake> Achoth: you certainly don't have to, though
[14:31] <rtz3463> Melchmon: linking will not help
[14:31] <wols> javaJake: that won't work
[14:31] <Pici> Melchmon: or install the moreutils package and use sponge:  grep -iv something file | sponge file
[14:31] <javaJake> wols: really? 'K...
[14:31] <rtz3463> Melchmon: either use a temp file or use sed with inline editing
[14:31] <wols> cause apt still thinks those packages are still installed, even when their files are gone
[14:32] <Melchmon> rtz3463, can u show me the syntax of sed please
[14:32] <Nickname> Hello there
[14:32] <javaJake> Achoth: so, moving on, have you ever used chroot?
[14:32] <Yud_Zroc> i have the kubuntu interface installed on my computer how do i switch from unubuntu gui to kubuntu
[14:32] <Achoth> javaJake: Once I think, maybe not
[14:32] <oldenglish> I can't get any streaming media to play (YouTube, Pandora, etc.) YouTube will start to play the first 10 seconds or so of the video then stop. It almost seems like a temp directory is full, but there is plenty of space available on my drive?
[14:32] <oldenglish> It was all working yesterday fine.
[14:32] <wols> Yud_Zroc: install ubuntu-desktop
[14:32] <rtz3463> Melchmon: the syntax of sed cannot be explained easily. it has many functions, therefore the syntax is complicated.
[14:33] <Yud_Zroc> ....wols other way around
[14:33] <Yud_Zroc> i have them all installed
[14:33] <Melchmon> rtz3463, i think I'm going to go with Grep and spong
[14:33] <wols> then what is the problem Yud_Zroc if you have them all?
[14:33] <Yud_Zroc> i want to switch
[14:33] <wols> Yud_Zroc: choose which to use on login
[14:33] <javaJake> Achoth: OK. Hold on, I'm going to pull together my thoughts on what needs to be done, so I can spit step-by-step stuff at you. ;)
[14:33] <Yud_Zroc> ah ok

[14:37] <tsunami> 2
[14:37] <Bryan[STLH]> 3
[14:37] <Pici> HedgeH0g: LjL wrote them, and the source is not available nor is there a website for them.
[14:37] <Melchmon> rtz3463, I want to make a script file that takes some variable and then runs it through grep -iv todo.txt | sponge todo.txt
[14:38] <Pici> Melchmon: #bash may be a better place to ask that sort of question, they might have a better way to do it also.
[14:38] <HedgeH0g> Pici: Okay, Thank's. -- Any reason why there's 6 Flood Bot nick names?
[14:38] <rtz3463> Melchmon: i don't see for what the variable will be used
[14:38] <Achoth> javaJake: http://pastebin.ca/1179633
[14:38]  * javaJake opens
[14:39] <Melchmon> rtz3463, the variable would be what i am searching for to remove.
[14:39] <rtz3463> Melchmon: for the grep pattern or for the file name?

[14:39] <javaJake> Achoth: OK, interesting, did you install using Wubi?
[14:39] <Pici> HedgeH0g: Specifics of the way that the floodbots work are not divulged, as they protect the channel against bot attacks.
[14:39] <HedgeH0g> :)
[14:39] <Casao_Acer> HedgeH0g: there are a shitton of floodbots available online, there's nothing really unique about the ones here

[14:52] <Achoth> javaJake: Wouldn't it be easier to just upload your /boot for me?
[14:53] <javaJake> Achoth: hmmmm... not exactly.
[14:53] <dusty---> rtz3463, thanks
[14:53] <javaJake> Achoth: there's a lot of system-specific stuff in /boot
[14:53] <javaJake> Achoth: the initramfs files, for instance, are generated per-ssytem
[14:53] <Achoth> javaJake: Not only menu.lst?
[14:53] <Pici> Cripps: Where did makeinfo come from?
[14:53] <roger> may I repeat my problem?
[14:53] <vikram> I just put selinux on ubuntu, and i noticed when you login, you shell is given root:staff_r:insmod_t
[14:54] <mohkohn_> I am aware of the EEEPC wiki page. I would need a wired connection for it to work.
[14:54] <vikram> insmod_t ?
[14:54] <Cripps> Pici, it's required by a custom toolchain that I'm compiling.
[14:54] <rtz3463> Cripps: i guess it is called texinfo   (without the dash)
[14:54] <javaJake> Achoth: right
[14:54] <Cripps> rtz3463, that's it ... don't know why I didn't think of that :/
[14:54] <Cripps> rtz3463, thanks :)
[14:54] <Achoth> javaJake: That's not good. That's not good at all
[14:54] <kaushal> hi
[14:54] <mohkohn_> what would cause the ubuntu installer to drop to Busybox intramfs?
[14:54] <javaJake> Achoth: Well, open /media/installed
[14:54] <javaJake> Achoth: in a browser
[14:55] <kaushal> i am not able to install
[14:55] <javaJake> Achoth: nautilus :P
[14:55] <wols> mohkohn_: not being able to mount the cd or hdds
[14:55] <Cripps> roger, if you've waited awhile and your question is no longer visible, go for it ... just use your judgement :)

[14:55] <javaJake> Achoth: are you able to see numerous folders such as bin, cdrom, etc, home...
[14:56] <kaushal> javaJake, hi
[14:56] <kaushal> http://rafb.net/p/JWjIcq67.html
[14:56] <mohkohn_> thanks wols gives me something to google for!
[14:56] <xukun> is it possible to install grub on xfs filesystem using ubuntu hardy 64 bit
[14:56] <Achoth> javaJake: Yes it's my Ubuntu install
[14:56] <Pici> kaushal: What version of Ubuntu are you suing?
[14:56] <wols> roger: upgrade your kernel to hardy too
[14:56] <kaushal> ubuntu8.04
[14:56] <roger> wols, ah yes... I was wondering why all my grub entries said gutsy
[14:57] <javaJake> Achoth: OK, good
[14:57] <javaJake> Achoth: yea, those commands should work. Can we PM?
[14:57] <mohkohn_> bad cd burn maybe?
[14:57] <Achoth> go ahead
[14:57] <kaushal> Pici, hi
[14:57] <Siegfried> any good graphical editor to edit large files?
[14:58] <Pici> kaushal: That should already be installed, did you do something in particular to need to reinstall it?
[14:58] <roger> wols, there's no new kernel updates in update-manager
[14:58] <kaushal> yeah
[14:58] <kaushal> Pici, can we talk PM
[14:58] <kaushal> since the volume is hig
[14:58] <kaushal> here
[14:58] <Pici> kaushal: I'd rather discuss it here, its not very busy right now.

[14:59] <kaushal> I was upgrading NM to 0.70
[14:59] <imperfect-> Has anyone had any luck getting optical out working with an Intel based board?
[14:59] <kaushal> Now I am downgrading it to the original version
[14:59] <Pici> kaushal: Upgrading?
[15:00] <dhani> haaii
[15:00] <kaushal> Network Manager
[15:00] <Pici> kaushal: .6.6 is the latest version available for Hardy
[15:00] <roger> wols, 2.6.22-15 seems to be the most recent
[15:00] <kaushal> yeah
[15:00] <dc2447> I am trying to set up dual monitors on an ATI card - even before I get get into BIG-DESKTOP goodness I can't even get both monitors to display 1280*1024 - have tried X -configure and dpkg-reconfigure xserver xorg but no matter what I do one screen has a decent resolution and one hasn't - help!
[15:00] <kaushal> so i want to use .6.6
[15:00] <Fujoor> hey guys, i have a broadcom wifi card, and i cant connect to wpa network, ive tried with both wicd and network-manager, it can only connect to unencrypted networks, what should i do?
[15:00] <Pici> kaushal: How did you upgrade it, how did you remove it?
[15:01] <imperfect-> No ideas on optical out eh?
[15:01] <kaushal> through synaptic
[15:01] <legend2440> dc2447: have you tried   sudo displayconfig-gtk?
[15:01] <Pici> kaushal: How did you upgrade it? .7.0 is not available in the Hardy repositories.
[15:01] <amenado> Fujoor-> just make sure your iptables is up and running..dont worry too much about connecting encrypted via wireless
[15:02] <dc2447> legend2440: I'm using openbox -
[15:03] <kaushal> Pici, #deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/network-manager/ubuntu hardy main
[15:03] <kaushal> #deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/network-manager/ubuntu hardy main
[15:03] <Fujoor> amenado: but our router uses wpa, i cant run it without a password, just because ubuntu doesnt like my wpa, maybe you missunderstood me, this is not a iptables problem
[15:04] <kaushal> Pici, yt ?
[15:04] <rtz3463> Fujoor: no, this is a broadcom problem. broadcom stinks. they refuse to give specs to linux developers, so everything must be reverse engineered.
[15:05] <legend2440> dc2447: how about   aticonfig --help?  there are many settings that can be done with aticonfig
[15:05] <Gnea> oldenglish: could you please pastebin the output of this command: dmesg
[15:05] <Pici> kaushal: Did you remove *all* of the packages that upgrading installed?
[15:05] <kaushal> only network-manager
[15:05] <kaushal> network-manager-gnome
[15:05] <kaushal> network-manager-openvpn
[15:05] <dc2447> legend2440: thanks
[15:05] <Pici> kaushal: Did those bring in any dependencies that you didnt remove?
[15:06] <kaushal> nope

[15:09] <Pici> kaushal: and for libnm-util0
[15:10] <ultragex> ultragex@ultragex-desktop:~/soft/xmms-1.2.11$ make
[15:10] <ultragex> make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.
[15:10] <ultragex> Thanks
[15:10] <Gnea> oldenglish: are you trying to read a cd or dvd at the same time?
[15:10] <Gnea> !compile | ultragex
[15:11] <Pici> ultragex: Read the INSTALL file for that source, it sounds like you've failed to ./configure
[15:11] <oldenglish> Gnea: no, there was a DVD in the drive but I wasn't playing from it. Once I saw that I/O error I removed it and tried again, but to no avail.
[15:11] <damien_> does anyone no a command line to download a utube downloader in terminal??
[15:11] <oldenglish> damien_: cliver
[15:11] <oldenglish> damien_: clive *
[15:11] <kaushal> Pici, http://rafb.net/p/ssjmhi14.html
[15:12] <ultragex> Sorry. My english is very bad :)
[15:12] <fedaykin> hateball: thankyou so much!
[15:12] <Gnea> oldenglish: sounds like a string of problems... let's see if we can light one end and have the solution trickle through to the end
[15:12] <|||RASTA|||> ci<
[15:12] <|||RASTA|||> ciao
[15:12] <damien_> im new to ubuntu what would the command be in full if ya wouldnt mind helpin me
[15:12] <|||RASTA|||> !lisr
[15:12] <|||RASTA|||> !list
[15:12] <Gnea> !it | |||RASTA|||
[15:12] <oldenglish> damien_: do sudo apt-get install clive
[15:12] <zod21> dammien_ use download helper for firefox, just search that in google and it works like an add on
[15:12] <damien_> thanks
[15:12] <Pici> kaushal: That version number is from the ppa, its one of the packages that was pulled in through a dependency.
[15:13] <sssam> is a Makefile specific to a shell? do you get different make files for bash and tcsh?
[15:13] <oldenglish> damien_: then once it is installed, to download just do "clive <youtube url>
[15:13] <kaushal> ok
[15:13] <oldenglish> damien_: it will download it as an .flv file. If you want to convert it to an AVI or something else, i recommend the program Avidemux.
[15:13] <dorito> hello how do you send files via bluetooth on ubuntu, I have the bluetooth tray icon showing and its activated
[15:13] <Gnea> oldenglish: It's possible that your hardware is having problems switching between tasks, so let's try to re-route the IRQ settings. this can be done by appending pci=routeirq to the boot kernel sequence
[15:14] <zod21> damien_ sure dude, let me know how it works
[15:14] <damien_> where does it install to it has download
[15:14] <Av1> hi
[15:14] <kaushal> Pici, what i have to do now
[15:14] <damien_> its downloaded and installed .
[15:15] <Av1> can anyone tell me how to check if my ATI graphics driver is working or not
[15:15] <Pici> kaushal: You need to remove that package and install it again, this time it should pull in the version from the regular Hardy repositories
[15:15] <Faust-C> anyone familiar w/ dar
[15:15] <wols> Av1: glxinfo
[15:15] <kaushal> ok
[15:15] <oldenglish> damien_: it automatically installs. From the command line, just type "clive <the youtube url you want to download>". It will download to whatever directory you are currently in. It is possible to use clive to re-encode the video on the fly but I have never had much luck with that.
[15:15] <Faust-C> i used the HUBackup but i dont want to fully restore
[15:15] <Gnea> !anyone | Faust-C
[15:15] <damien_> thanks
[15:15] <Faust-C> Gnea, gee thx
[15:15] <Av1> should i type in terminal window
[15:16] <zod21> it installs directly to firefo
[15:16] <zod21> firefox*
[15:16] <zod21> damien_ sweet restart firefox and go to youtube and right click on the white area around the vid you wanna dload and select the name of it, it downloads it. play them with vlc media player
[15:16] <Gnea> Faust-C: no idea what dar is anyway, so yeah, please don't be vague.
[15:16] <Faust-C> Gnea, so why even respond
[15:16] <Faust-C> anyways, i dont want to fully restore a backup, i just want to restore a directory
[15:16] <Gnea> Faust-C: why ask in the first place?
[15:17] <Av1> wols
[15:17] <damien_> i cant seem to get it to work
[15:17] <Av1>  should i type that in ternimal window
[15:17] <oldenglish> damien_: PM me and we can work it out
[15:17] <Gnea> Faust-C: well, taking a look at it.
[15:17] <Faust-C> i try "dar -O -x <dar archive>/<dir>
[15:17] <oldenglish> Gnea: Clearing my firefox cache and restarting it seems to have solved the issue.
[15:17] <Faust-C> but it asks for file.1.dar, its there ?
[15:18] <Gnea> oldenglish: okay. what about the dvd? is it still giving the error?
[15:18] <oldenglish> Gnea: I haven't checked, don't need to play the DVD though.
[15:19] <Gnea> oldenglish: so it's not a thorn in your side? :)
[15:19] <Av1> sorry wols
[15:19] <oldenglish> Gnea: Nope, I only need to use this computer for another week and a half anyway, then I'm done with this job. :)
[15:19] <Gnea> oldenglish: oh ok :)

[15:43] <Candale> does anyone know why nautilus is slow when I access a windows share?  I am using 8.04.
[15:43] <greymalkin> So, the "Storage" tab of removable media etc has disappeared.
[15:43] <greymalkin> The only problem is that we need automounting to be off to write our compact flashes for embedded devices.
[15:44] <cbk486> Hello, whenever I boot up ubuntu, I am in text-only mode for login. However, when I login to my account, I can startx from there, how can I get x to start automatically?
[15:44] <greymalkin> No settings in Nautilus fixed the problem.
[15:44] <greymalkin> Anytime we try to mount the flashes through our build, they end up being 'busy'
[15:45] <greymalkin> What is the proper solution here? We can't just wait until the next release to fix this.
[15:46] <Candale>  does anyone know why nautilus is slow when I access a windows share?  I am using 8.04.
[15:47] <cbk486> ﻿(09:43:59 AM) cbk486: Hello, whenever I boot up ubuntu, I am in text-only mode for login. However, when I login to my account, I can startx from there, how can I get x to start automatically?
[15:47] <cbk486> !x
[15:47] <Slart> Candale: samba can be really slow with windows sometimes.. don't know why
[15:47] <erUSUL> cbk486: sudo update-rc.d gdm defaults
[15:47] <Slart> Candale: there are some tweaks available if you google about it.. nothing makes it as fast windows to windows though
[15:47] <Candale> Slart: when i go to add an attachement to an email it is fast.
[15:48] <Gillpy> Is it possible to start the X server and not have my tty switch to it automatically? ( I boot into console)
[15:48] <Slart> Candale: adding an attachment to an email? how is that related?
[15:48] <cbk486> erUSUL: " System startup links for /etc/init.d/gdm already exist."
[15:49] <Candale> Slart: when I browse the network to get to a file that I want to attach to an email everything is really fast.. When I just browse with nautilus it is slow almost unusable
[15:49] <Chousuke> Gillpy: most likely it is... I don't know how, but maybe startx manpage knows?
[15:49] <Candale> Slart: oh i use evolution

[15:57] <Joker_-_> Hey there. Is there an easy way to switch my keyboard layout in Ubuntu Server? I currently have an english US keyboard layout (standard) but I can't do any accents and it causes me troubles (ie, joining channels with accents, reading text containing accents, etc.)
[15:58] <Av1> cbk i dont need to install a package fopr it
[15:58] <cbk486> ?
[15:58] <cbk486> How else are you going to get the codec
[15:59] <ali1234> what mechanism is used by ubuntu to redirect flash player 9 audio to pulse sound server?
[15:59] <Av1> cbk i thought i have to use pakage manager
[15:59] <hololight> anyone on my issue? i could just use the kernel i have been using.... but it is going to start causeing me problems real soon
[15:59] <cbk486> No, you can install packages with the command line also
[15:59] <cbk486> but you can use Synaptic
[15:59] <cbk486> !packages
[16:00] <cbk486> !apt

[16:00] <hololight> joker: console?
[16:00] <Joker_-_> hololight: well, shell
[16:01] <hololight> joker: not sure then
[16:01] <Flannel> Joker_-_: dpkg-reconfigure console-data
[16:01] <Joker_-_> hololight: me neither...
[16:01] <hololight> joker: i think there is <ctrl> keys for some of them
[16:01] <Joker_-_> Flannel: do I have to read on that or..?
[16:01] <cbk486> ﻿Hello, whenever I boot up ubuntu, I am in text-only mode for login. However, when I login to my account, I can startx from there, how can I get x to start automatically?
[16:01] <Flannel> Joker_-_: do it (with sudo), and it'll ask you some questions, etc.
[16:02] <Joker_-_> Flannel: great... ubuntu is so simple :)
[16:02] <Joker_-_> Flannel: thx a lot
[16:02] <Flannel> Joker_-_: as far as displaying intl characters, that isn't governed by your keyboard layout

[16:35] <Max-P_> danbhfive: thanks, looks like alsa is trying to use the PC Speaker instead of my Intel card
[16:35] <bbq^> let me check
[16:36] <Pelo> Counterack, you might want to go in #vbox to ask then
[16:36] <Counterack> ooh ok thanks
[16:36] <MonthOLDpickle> is there a USB ubuntu mibbit?
[16:37] <MonthOLDpickle> YOu ca only install 6.10 onto the USB correct?
[16:37] <Max-P_> danbhfive: can you help me to get it working?
[16:37] <Pelo> luks_, if anywhere,  you'll find info on this in  gconf-editor ,  either under /app/pannel or under /app/gnome , those are by best guesses
[16:37] <danbhfive> Max-P_: sorry mate, I have no idea
[16:38] <Pelo> later folks gotta go an eat
[16:38] <RandyS> thank you Pici
[16:39] <luks_> Pelo thanks
[16:39] <greymalkin> Removed gnome-volume-manager and now desktop is crashing regularly
[16:39] <ValentineX1> bbq^:  at getdeb.net there is a screen recording application with the name qka screen recorder wait I am looking.
[16:40] <Pici> !screencast | bbq^
[16:40] <greymalkin> We're thinking of ditching ubuntu if we can't get this solved.
[16:40] <danbhfive> greymalkin: have you tried reinstalling it?
[16:40] <ValentineX1> hmm Pici thanks
[16:40] <bbq^> Ahh thankyou ValentineX1 Pici and ubottu
[16:40] <greymalkin> danbhfive: This *is* the reinstall.
[16:41] <zod21> k
[16:41] <bbq^> I have used Xvidcap
[16:41] <bbq^> and it would crash
[16:41] <Pici> greymalkin: Why did you remove gnome-volume-manager ?
[16:42] <greymalkin> Pici: Because it's automounting our compact flash devices in the middle of our build after we write the partition tables and make filesystems.
[16:42] <Fish-Face> Hey all, I'm having some trouble with an old but updated ubuntu system
[16:42] <greymalkin> Which causes the build to fail with extreme prejudice.
[16:42] <Fish-Face> It's loading the nvidia, not nvidia-new kernel module
[16:42] <bazhang> Fish-Face, what version
[16:42] <Fish-Face> gutsy
[16:42] <Fish-Face> when I say old, I've been upgrading it for a while
[16:42] <ValentineX1> Hello is this making other linux softaware to deb easily? http://www.getdeb.net/release/3089
[16:42] <Fish-Face> so it's a bit mucky
[16:43] <danbhfive> greymalkin: which version are you using?
[16:43] <Fish-Face> So I think I need to purge some stuff and reinstall some other stuff
[16:43] <Fish-Face> But I have no real idea how Ubuntu's doing nvidia these days
[16:43] <spike> hi, is there a channel of ubuntu on mac osx ?
[16:43] <Fish-Face> So I don't know what to (re)install
[16:44] <peri> hi, does Someone use xilinx ISE 10.1 ? when i try to upload the code to my fpga, the impact just exit with 15826 Segmentation fault....
[16:44] <bazhang> !ppc
[16:45] <Pici> greymalkin: Have you take a look at the gconf keys in system/storage/volumes ?
[16:45] <bobby> hellloo
[16:45] <bobby> my laptop is very hot when i run ubuntu
[16:46] <bobby> the smartctl shows that my harddrive temp is 41 degrees
[16:46] <bobby> is that normal?
[16:47] <kaffien> what is a good wireless manager for ubuntu?
[16:48] <IdleOne> kaffien, search Synaptic for wifi
[16:48] <ValentineX1> bbq^: http://www.getdeb.net/app/RecordMyDesktop this is easy to install I liked this :d
[16:48] <Acorn> What do I do if the drive I'm trying to mount in ubuntu live CD says that NTFS is marked to be in use so it can't be mounted?
[16:49] <popey> recordmydesktop is in the repository ValentineX1  no need to use getdeb
[16:49] <Sinnerman> ValentineX1: if i remember correctly, it's command-line based. there's also istanbul - have a look through the repositories for it.
[16:49] <bbq^> ValentineX1, thanks man, i installed xvidcap already though
[16:49] <bbq^> :o
[16:49] <ValentineX1> popey: what is repository?
[16:49] <popey> ValentineX1: Sinnerman bbq^ gtk-recordmydesktop is a gui for recordmydesktop
[16:49] <popey> ValentineX1: in synaptic
[16:49] <Sinnerman> ValentineX1: sorry, i meant bbq^. have a look at what i just said.
[16:49] <mpalatnik> g
[16:49] <Pici> !software | ValentineX1 please read
[16:49] <IdleOne> !repos | ValentineX1
[16:50] <Pici> ValentineX1: I do not recommend installing software from external sources before looking in our package repositories
[16:50] <ValentineX1> hmm thanks all
[16:50] <kaffien> Thanks idle i was just wondering if there was a generally well liked one
[16:50] <Fish-Face> How does Ubuntu determine which nvidia module to load at bootup?
[16:50] <Pici> kaffien: network-manager
[16:51] <ValentineX1> Pici:  yup I would also like it from ubuntu
[16:51] <Pici> ValentineX1: I dont know what you mean
[16:51] <bbq^> Sinnerman, yeah thanks mate
[16:52] <BeCreative> whats a good dvd player for ubuntu? cause totem aint working ...
[16:52] <klimmy> hi
[16:52] <Fish-Face> BeCreative, I use xine
[16:52] <Acorn> anyone got any idea on how to solve my problem?
[16:52] <ValentineX1> Hello how to instal modem I am tired of it.
[16:52] <Odd-rationale> BeCreative: vlc is pretty good
[16:53] <Fish-Face> BeCreative, also consider googling on how to change/modify the totem backend
[16:53] <Odd-rationale> BeCreative: or you could uninstall totem-gstreamer and use totem-xine
[16:53] <Fish-Face> I always found gstreamer to be a bit flaky
[16:53] <klimmy> i have problems installing ubuntu 8.04 on my macbook. i read the guide on help.ubuntu.com but that does not work for me
[16:53] <Fish-Face> BeCreative, aye, what Odd-rationale said
[16:53] <klimmy> somehow i cannot boot into ubuntu
[16:53] <Fish-Face> mplayer's another popular one
[16:53] <Sinnerman> BeCreative: you can use vlc, although i hear people using mplayer.
[16:54] <klimmy> anyone has installed ubuntu on a macbook?
[16:54] <Sinnerman> klimmy: there's a howto for that.
[16:55] <bazhang> !macbook
[16:55] <Sinnerman> klimmy: google says: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBook
[16:55] <ValentineX1> Hello and .SH  .RMP etc to .DEB files/installers convertor?
[16:55] <klimmy> Sinnerman: yeah i tried that.
[16:55] <detlef> wer sagt das
[16:55] <Sinnerman> klimmy: ah well, there, bazhang gave you the factoid :).
[16:55] <detlef> kann nur Deutsch
[16:55] <bazhang> !de | detlef
[16:56] <Fish-Face> ValentineX1, you can use alien to convert an RPM to a DEB
[16:56] <Pici> ValentineX1: alien can convert .rpm files to .deb, but I highly suggest not doing that.
[16:56] <hume> hi.. anyone can guide me on how to make the cpu temperature sensor work? I have ln-sensors installed and a hdd-temp sensor running - but would need a cpu sensor as well
[16:56] <Fish-Face> but there's no standard .sh installation method, so one cannot convert those to deb simply
[16:56] <ValentineX1> Fish-Face: Pici: where to get that
[16:56] <asfak> why as user i can't access windows drive from dolphin in kubuntu intrepid a4 ?
[16:56] <Fish-Face> hume, unfortunately I only found gkrellm :[
[16:56] <Pici> ValentineX1: In our package repositories
[16:56] <Pici> asfak: Please join #ubuntu+1 for Intrepid/8.10 support/discussion.
[16:56] <bazhang> ValentineX1, look in repos first for package before trying rpm
[16:57] <klimmy> but i used exactly that howto
[16:57] <Acorn> ﻿What do I do if the drive I'm trying to mount in ubuntu live CD says that NTFS is marked to be in use so it can't be mounted?
[16:57] <Pici> ValentineX1: Always always look in the repositories  before installing 3rd party packages, I cannot stress this enough.
[16:57] <Fish-Face> Acorn, it should give you a command to run
[16:57] <klimmy> though i went for 4 partitions
[16:57] <Fish-Face> Acorn, run that command and it will ignore the in-use flag
[16:57] <ValentineX1> Pici: oh they are only for internet. when you have internet connection you can use them without net can't :( and I have modem installation problem also phone gprs installation I don't know
[16:57] <ValentineX1> bazhang: ok
[16:57] <hume> Fish-Face, can gkrellm show cpu temp then? would I not need lm-sensors to operate correctly first?
[16:58] <BeCreative> vlc keeps crashing too. Can someone help me get my dvd working?
[16:58] <Pici> ValentineX1: You're going to be downloading the packages from somewhere, why not use the recommended method?
[16:58] <Melchmon> anyone using kde4
[16:58] <Fish-Face> Hume, you'd still need lm-sensors, but it shows the temp
[16:58] <Fish-Face> using the sensors
[16:58] <Acorn> Fish-Face: Is that safe? Is it not possible to fix the flag instead?
[16:58] <Fish-Face> BeCreative, have you tried xine/mplayer, and does it give any output?
[16:58] <detlef> spricht hier einer deutsch
[16:58] <Fish-Face> Acorn, well, is the partition in use
[16:58] <Fish-Face> ?
[16:58] <Pici> !de | detlef
[16:59] <ValentineX1> Pici:  reading.
[16:59] <Acorn> Fish-Face: I'm on the live CD so no
[16:59] <hume> Fish-Face, trying to install gkrelllm them
[16:59] <Fish-Face> Acorn, okay. I've not used the LiveCD much...
[16:59] <Fish-Face> try running vlc from the command line
[16:59] <Fish-Face> and see if it gives any info relating to the error
[17:00] <Acorn> Fish-Face: does ubuntu have some kind of chkdsk equivalent?
[17:00] <zhobbs> anyone using a USB wireless adapter that supports WPA and uses a native driver?  need to buy one, but would rather avoid ndiswrapper
[17:00] <BeCreative> Fish-Face: just installed mplayer, no output
[17:00] <Fish-Face> Acorn, yes, fsck, but I don't know whether it works on NTFS
[17:01] <Fish-Face> BeCreative, as in, no video? or no command-line output?
[17:01] <greymalkin> Okay, is there a way to revert packages to previous versions?
[17:01] <BeCreative> no video
[17:01] <greymalkin> Specifically gnome-volume-properties
[17:01] <Fish-Face> BeCreative, how are you starting mplayer/trying to play the video with mplayer?
[17:01] <danbhfive> greymalkin: there is something called pinning
[17:01] <BeCreative> how do I get my disk out wtf
[17:02] <greymalkin> danbhfive: Right.. but aptitude isn't showing the previous versions
[17:02] <Fish-Face> BeCreative, sometimes the auto-ummount goes wonky
[17:02] <Acorn> Fish-Face: I'll just run chkdsk from XP, hope it mounts after taht
[17:02] <Fish-Face> BeCreative, you can unmount the disk manually
[17:02] <ValentineX1> Its so hard to read the guides at windows then to go back to linux for test if problem then I come back again at windows for help :(. coz my ubuntu is without net.
[17:02] <ValentineX1> Help me about connecting mobile phone with ubuntu
[17:02] <danbhfive> greymalkin: you mean from previous releases?
[17:02] <magnus_> Ive got a weird problem with wlan. I can see all the surrounding wireless networks except my own..
[17:03] <BeCreative> i give up, ubuntu sucks for watching dvd, that is for sure
[17:03] <Fish-Face> BeCreative, :[
[17:03] <Fish-Face> BeCreative, please don't give up, it works for me :/
[17:03] <danbhfive> greymalkin: if so, you should just download the package you are looking for from the ubuntu archives
[17:03] <BeCreative> what? I can watch dvd on windows out of the box
[17:03] <hume> Fish-Face, how do I make gkrellm show cpu temp? mine now shows processes and load but no temp
[17:04] <Fish-Face> hume, erm, I cannae remember... somewhere in the preferences I think you can find the option to display temp
[17:04] <zechs> hi all : synaptic froze at 'generating locales, tr_CY.UTF-8' and now I can't use synaptic anymore.  Trying a dpkg --configure -a leaves the system hanging, doing nothing... what's going on and how do I fix this?  A similar problem happened when I tried upgrading to 8.04, but the desktop no longer loaded, and I had to reinstall from an old CD.
[17:04] <Fish-Face> hume, have you done 'sensors-detect' or whatever it is?
[17:04] <hume> Fish-Face, nope...sensors-detect?
[17:04] <Fish-Face> BeCreative, true... I guess it depends how much you want ubuntu for other things
[17:04] <zechs> I cannot even boot an 8.04 livecd; I assume it's a hardware recognition problem, since I'm using a thinkpad X61
[17:05] <Fish-Face> hume, I think that's the command... it will determine what sensors you have and load the appropriate modules
[17:05] <balle_> hmm, can anybody tell me why my computer is at full speed on my processers, gkrellm says it's at 99% and i've just booted ubuntu... aint that kinda strange?
[17:05] <Wipster> woooo I got my canon i990 to work with cups, go me!
[17:05] <Pici> BeCreative: That is only due to dvd decryption.  The easiest way to enable Ubuntu to play dvds is to install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[17:05] <Fish-Face> balle_, you can use gnome-system-monitor or top to see what's using the CPU
[17:06] <Fish-Face> Pici, oh bums I forgot about that
[17:06] <Pici> BeCreative: Totem has poor/no support for DVD menus, so I suggest using a different player, such as mplayer or vlc.
[17:07] <Fish-Face> BeCreative, yeah, what Pici said. Unfortunately, DVDs are encrypted in a manner which prevents free software from legally playing them
[17:07] <BeCreative> mplayer doesnt work, neither does vlc
[17:07] <bazhang> sure they do
[17:07] <Fish-Face> BeCreative, so you have to install this package in order to crack the encryption on the disks
[17:07] <BeCreative> im installer it now
[17:07] <bazhang> !dvd
[17:07] <Sinnerman> is there a fsck.ntfs?
[17:07] <Pici> Sinnerman: o
[17:08] <Pici> Sinnerman: er, no.
[17:08] <robelliott2125> Does anyone know how to retreive data on a drive, which isn't being shown in either Windows or on a Ubuntu Live CD?
[17:08] <unop> Sinnerman, there is a ntfsfix tho from ntfsprogs
[17:08] <Fish-Face> OK, does anyone know how Ubuntu determines which nvidia module to load at boot?
[17:08] <balle_> fish-face: hmm. i checked it now, about 50 things running in there, though only 2 things using any 1 is the monitor using about 12-14 and the other is xorg using 8 currently, that doesnt ad up to anywhere near 99%.. any other ideas perhaps? thx man
[17:08] <Fish-Face> Because it's gettin' it wrong
[17:08] <BeCreative> mplayer hangs, how can I shut it off?
[17:08] <unop> Sinnerman, not the same but similar .. should be used with caution
[17:08] <Sinnerman> unop: and how good is that at not messing up my partition? :(
[17:08] <BeCreative> is still hanging from before the restricted extras
[17:08] <Fish-Face> BeCreative, gnome-system-monitor can do it, or you can type "killall mplayer" at the command line
[17:09] <unop> Sinnerman, depends, what's wrong with the volume?
[17:09] <Sinnerman> i would have thought they had something like fsck, considering they have resize capability... they need to be able to check they are making a coherent filesystem. :S
[17:09] <Fish-Face> balle_, ah
[17:09] <bazhang> BeCreative, go to www.medibuntu.org and install libdvdcss2
[17:09] <Fish-Face> balle_, did you use top or gnome-system-monitor?
[17:09] <bbq^> Fish-Face, do u know the command for terminal to list all your active processes ?
[17:09] <Fish-Face> bbq^, top
[17:10] <Fish-Face> oh
[17:10] <Fish-Face> hang on
[17:10] <Sinnerman> unop: a couple of my music files appear to have just vanised. i have an entry in banshee's playlist, but they're not where they're supposed to be anymore. about 30 of them so far. out of quite a lot.
[17:10] <unop> bbq^, ps -u $USER
[17:10] <bbq^> Ah that worked
[17:10] <Fish-Face> bbq^, for CPU usage, or just every process?
[17:10] <bbq^> for all
[17:10] <Fish-Face> ps -A tells you every process on the computer
[17:10] <balle_> fish-face gnome system monitor, i am currently running firefox as well..
[17:10] <Sinnerman> unop: i just wanted to dry-run check the filesystem.
[17:10] <bbq^> thanks unop
[17:10] <Fish-Face> balle_, hmm
[17:10] <sam_uel> anyone have any idea why rhythmbox wont work unless gnome-settings-daemon is running?
[17:10] <bbq^> yea well its my computer, so i use all of them
[17:10] <chris062689> Can someone help me with my microphone?
[17:10] <bbq^> not network comp
[17:11] <Fish-Face> bbq^, not all processes are owned by you though
[17:11] <bbq^> true
[17:11] <balle_> fish-face, that was it! now it's changing between 4 and 16%
[17:11] <chris062689> I have all of the settings turned on, (not muted) and I still can't figure out how to get my mic working.
[17:11] <Fish-Face> bbq^, so if you just do "ps" then not all will show
[17:11] <chris062689> I had it working a few installs back, I can't remember how i did it though
[17:11] <bbq^> ahh gotchya
[17:11] <chris062689> I'm using ALSA.
[17:11] <Fish-Face> balle_, firefox?
[17:11] <unop> Sinnerman, well, not sure ntfsfix can help -- if you have a windows install, i recommend you use chkdsk instead
[17:11] <hume> Fish-Face, hrm...when I do sensors-detect, a cpu temp sensor is detected, but the driver (for K10) is "yet to be written". and in gkrellm conf, I can only find the hdd in sensors temperature section - does this mean that the sensors do not yet work for my cpu?
[17:11] <ValentineX1> hello there was ipod link to synchronise songs in it?
[17:11] <balle_> fish-face but why on earth would it suck so much power? yes it was because of firefox!
[17:11] <bazhang> !ipod
[17:11] <bazhang> ValentineX1, ^^
[17:11] <ValentineX1> bazhang: oh yup thanks haha
[17:11] <Fish-Face> hume, possibly. Unfortunately I don't know anything more about sensors really
[17:12] <Fish-Face> hume, they tend to make my system hardlock ><
[17:12] <Sinnerman> unop: yeah, unfortunately, i do have a windows install. pity 7 of my partitions are ntfs, and 1 is ext3. i just came over from using XP. and i've still got most of my data on there.
[17:12] <magnus_> !wlan
[17:12] <hume> Fish-Face, thx anyway
[17:12] <Fish-Face> balle_, oh, firefox does some odd things sometimes ^^
[17:12] <Fish-Face> balle_, are you on version 2 or 3?
[17:12] <Fish-Face> and do you have the flash or java plugins installed? They can do it if they go wrong
[17:12] <unop> Sinnerman, try looking for the files on the volume .. they might have been moved inadvertently.
[17:12] <robelliott2125> Wow its busy in here.
[17:12] <Fish-Face> err lol
[17:13] <Fish-Face> all the off-white text in the terminal just disappeared
[17:13] <Fish-Face> until I pressed a key, then it came back
[17:13] <flyer> does anyone know how to put usb working on virtualbox
[17:13] <balle_> fish-face: 3 latest update..
[17:13] <Fish-Face> balle_, hmm dunno then... does it happen consistently?
[17:13] <robelliott2125> flyer, theres a walkthrough for it on the forums
[17:13] <bazhang> flyer, ose or from vbox site
[17:13] <levtim> have you updated to the latest drivers?
[17:13] <cwill747> balle_: is your problem sound in firefox?
[17:13] <robelliott2125> Just getting you the link now flyer
[17:14] <robelliott2125> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=770745&highlight=virtualbox - flyer
[17:14] <Fish-Face> cwill747, nah, resource sucking
[17:14] <BeCreative> medibuntu is down
[17:14] <BeCreative> cant get on it
[17:14] <cwill747> Fish-Face: ah, alright, i was just wondering
[17:14] <flyer> i edit the fstab file a add a line to usbfs but this didn work
[17:14] <balle_> cwill747: no, not at all actually, but it takes up like 80% of my cou
[17:14] <balle_> fish-face: yes it does... kinda strange really
[17:14] <cwill747> balle_: 80? good grief that's a lot
[17:14] <bazhang> BeCreative, loads fine here
[17:14] <robelliott2125> flyer, check the link out bud, i installed it, and it works.
[17:15] <BeCreative> here it doesnt bazhang
[17:15] <bazhang> flyer, the ose from repos?
[17:15] <Fish-Face> balle_, so just every time you start firefox it sucks 80% CPU?? ouch.
[17:15] <bbq^> cya all
[17:15] <bazhang> then try again BeCreative
[17:15] <flyer> bazhang, yes
[17:15] <Oli``> Anyone know if there's a way to say where libnotify displays its notifications?
[17:15] <bazhang> flyer, that does not support usb
[17:15] <chubs> Alright, so I was doing some stuff in gparted and inadvertently changed the root partition of ubuntu from /dev/sda1 to /dev/sda2
[17:15] <Fish-Face> balle_, you'd probably be best off talking to the firefox guys on irc.mozilla.org (I think that's them, anyways)
[17:16] <chubs> it's causing all sorts of problems at bootup, and my paths are all broken
[17:16] <ValentineX1> Amarok can be installed by installing the amarok package. For example, using apt-get:  # apt-get install amarok     hi what does it mean? where should I type this command in terminal?
[17:16] <flyer> bazhang, are you shure in the 7.10 realease i have usb working
[17:16] <balle_> fish-face: yea it's kind of a bitch i know, but thx for the help anyway dude, i'll try to hit them mozilla guys up
[17:16] <robelliott2125> ValentineX1, yes, sudo apt-get install amarok is for your console bud, and it'll set it all up for you
[17:16] <chubs> ValentineX1: sudo apt-get install amarok in the terminal
[17:16] <bazhang> flyer, the ose in hardy repos does not
[17:16] <Fish-Face> balle_, no probs, hope you find a solution!
[17:17] <BeCreative> ok website works now, I installed it, booted mplayer and I got an immage for like less then a second, and then black again

[17:18] <robelliott2125> Does anyone know how to retreive data on a drive, which isn't being shown in either Windows or on a Ubuntu Live CD?  The drive has data on there, and properties confirms data on the drives too.
[17:18] <Fish-Face> if you do 'man sed' you can get it to make backups
[17:19] <bazhang> flyer, the vbox site one does provide usb support
[17:19] <nutzer> knuddels

[17:19] <Impakt> Hello

[17:19] <Fish-Face> er
[17:19] <Fish-Face> nvm :P
[17:19] <robelliott2125> bazhang, i've given the link to setting up Vbox to flyer, i followed it, and it was easy to do.  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=770745&highlight=virtualbox

[17:20] <Sorlag> whats the rename command in terminal again?
[17:20] <Fish-Face> I guess I'll check back later
[17:20] <BeCreative> still not working ....
[17:20] <unop> mortuis99, shred -n25 -uz *jpg  seems to work ok
[17:20] <robelliott2125> Sorlag, is it not something like rn?
[17:20] <chadwick> rename = mv
[17:20] <Fish-Face> BeCreative, what's it doing at the moment?
[17:20] <Impakt> I am having a problem with my wireless nettwork on my laptop it worked fine at first. then i restarted my comp and now when i type in the password to the nettwork the same windows pops up again
[17:20] <greymalkin> Where are packages downloaded again?
[17:21] <BeCreative> it reads the disk, get an immage less then a second and then black screen
[17:21] <greymalkin> To what directory?
[17:21] <Fish-Face> BeCreative, 0.0 how odd
[17:21] <zechs> zechs
[17:21] <Fish-Face> I'd suggest running from the command line and seeing if it says anything
[17:21] <sam_uel> anyone have any idea how to get mpd and pulseaudio to play nicley?
[17:21] <Fish-Face> but I'm off for now

[17:22] <CraigJolley> Hi... I have a question.  Does anyone use Compiz-Switch?  I see lots of websites that say great things about it, but the one from which one can supposedly download it isn't working (http://forlong.blogage.de/article/pages/Compiz-Switch)
[17:22] <egosintrick> NodeRazor have you installed gnome-libs-devel
[17:22] <shae_> wow
[17:23] <Sorlag> chadwick doesnt work Oo
[17:23] <mortuis99> i get shred:unrecognized option `---_242_1.jpg'
[17:23] <levtim> Impakt, what kind of network are you trying to connect to?
[17:23] <Sorlag> chadwick isnt mv move?
[17:24] <egosintrick> mv is move, but it also renames
[17:25] <egosintrick> if you specify a different name as the move to location
[17:25] <Fish-Face> er I'll go properly now
[17:25] <egosintrick> so if i had a file called file1.txt and wanted to rename it to file2.txt, i would say, 'mv file1.txt file2.txt
[17:26] <Sp0tter> is there a self contained verison of apache? I want to be able to run it from my home directory cause i dont have access to the config file in the regular place
[17:26] <Seiko> Dear all
[17:26] <Seiko> Pls tell me how to "open port" for Web Hosting Server 80
[17:27] <unop> Sp0tter, it's going to be problematic .. starting apache up requires you be root
[17:27] <Sp0tter> drats
[17:27] <Gnea> Seiko: it's closed?
[17:27] <Sp0tter> i accidently killed my sudoer permissions
[17:27] <Seiko> Error: I could not see your service on myip  on port (80)
[17:27] <Seiko> Reason: Connection refused
[17:27] <keldrona> I have a question: I would like to change the resolution of my screen on kubuntu. How can I do?
[17:27] <Sp0tter> trying to find a way to still use my server hehe its a 2 hour drive to go fix it
[17:27] <Seiko> Gnea
[17:27] <Gnea> Seiko: what program is telling you that?
[17:27] <unop> Sp0tter, you can reset this in the single user/recovery mode
[17:27] <Seiko> http://canyouseeme.org
[17:27] <Seiko> I use it
[17:27] <Sp0tter> unop, its not local
[17:27] <nottha_k_> how would I merge the contents of two directories, overwriting files with the newest timestamps in either directory
[17:28] <unop> nottha_k_, rsync -av source_dir/  dest_dir/
[17:28] <nottha_k_> does mv have some magic overwrite if older flag?
[17:29] <nottha_k_> unop: ah rsync looks at timestamps? cool.
[17:29] <Gnea> Seiko: you should ask in #networking, that is unsupported here.
[17:29] <nottha_k_> thanks
[17:29] <unop> nottha_k_, it does .. see the -u flag .. but mv for this job might be a little expensive
[17:29] <Seiko> Ya
[17:29] <Seiko> Thank Gnea

[17:32] <greymalkin> Got it -- added 'gutsy' sources to sources.list, update, downgrade and forbid upgrades.
[17:33] <egosintrick> nottha mv -u will update a file only if the source is newer
[17:33] <egosintrick> or magically overwrite an older file lol
[17:34] <BeCreative> Now the dvd plays, ive got a visual, but it flickers. Anyone can help me?

[17:37] <whatspy> here comes a totally NON-ubuntu related question... ohhh, english-speaking friends, how do you ask someone what's his ... career/domain of work/specialty, you know, the kind of "thing" you expect to learn from someone when you ask him "what do you do for a living?"

[17:38] <BeCreative> well it was not in full screen

[17:40] <jgreene> hello all. Question. I have a Thinkpad T61P, running with an external monitor, using twinview. Issue is when I boot up with the xorg.conf I use to run the external monitor, ubuntu still thinks it is attached so it spreads everything to places I can't see since the monitor is not attached. Any ideas for a fix, other than swapping configs?
[17:41] <BeCreative> ok maek. It doesnt flicker anymore, but the movie aint playing any more neither, lets me reboot for a sec

[18:03] <robelliott2125> lol
[18:03] <tuxice> !alsa
[18:03] <n3hima> Gnea, what an informative answer
[18:03] <Gnea> n3hima: what an offtopic question.
[18:04] <n3hima> Gnea, where should I ask?
[18:04] <tuxice> #ubuntu-offtopic
[18:04] <robelliott2125> Does anyone know how to retreive data on a drive, which isn't being shown in either Windows or on a Ubuntu Live CD?  The drive has data on there, and properties confirms data on the drives but nothing appears until veiwing hidden folders, to which .trash displays recent deleted items
[18:04] <pLr> fsufitch: if you have the 3945ABG it works, you can get the drivers from the restricted-manager
[18:04] <Gnea> n3hima: i would checkout #ubuntu-offtopic, #raid
[18:04] <tesik11> @Gnea and wtha now , reinstall system ?
[18:05] <tuxice> robelliott2125. see if it is in another partition using gparted
[18:05] <Gnea> !rescue | tesik11
[18:05] <Gnea> !alternate | tesik11
[18:05] <fsufitch> pLr, thanks, i will try that after my ubuntu upgrade goes through :)
[18:06] <robelliott2125> tuxice, gparted shows the drives there, but the system will not mount the drives.  When running a live disk, the disks mount, and can see the .trash, same being when booting into XP, but no data.
[18:06] <tesik11> ok i try but later , my server i in roof :)
[18:06] <tesik11> sry for my engliush
[18:06] <KingdomOFish> anyone but me having problem with having to crash f-spot to shut it down?
[18:06] <tuxice> robelliott2125: is it a external hdd, an ipod with disk use, a flash drive?
[18:07] <pLr> fsufitch: np i have it working already
[18:07] <tesik11> cya
[18:07] <Gnea> KingdomOFish: yeah, f-spot blows.
[18:07] <robelliott2125> None of those tuxice, they are internal drives.
[18:07] <KingdomOFish> Gnea: any suggestions on replacement?
[18:07] <gd1> hi installed ubuntu 7.10 with default settings: then updated to 8.04
[18:07] <Gnea> KingdomOFish: i usually just mount/browse with Places, works better that way
[18:07] <gd1> is there any proprietary software in my system
[18:08] <KingdomOFish> Gnea: well i like the whole tagging images and using certain tags as screensaver
[18:08] <robelliott2125> tuxice, if it helps, heres my link for the forums:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=894699
[18:08] <tuxice> robelliott2125: when was the last time you could access the drive
[18:08] <gd1> I mean, 7.10 had no option for "install only free software"
[18:08] <Gnea> KingdomOFish: dunno
[18:08] <gd1> did it install some proprietary rubbish
[18:09] <gazzag94> irc.p2ptalk.org #stb-invite
[18:09] <robelliott2125> Before trying to upgrade from Gutsy to Hardy two nights ago
[18:09] <robelliott2125> Before trying to upgrade from Gutsy to Hardy two nights ago @ tuxice
[18:09] <robelliott2125> gd1, as far as I know, ubuntu uses only free software, so you won't have anything charge-able unless you installed it within WINE.
[18:09] <tuxice> possibly this could be a bug in hardy?
[18:10] <tuxice> robelliott2125: have you filed a bug report
[18:10] <sssam> is logging into the ubuntu forums working ok for people? each time i log in i still see the pages as if i am not. i had to input my username/password several times to post
[18:10] <smatt454> robelliott, that is not true
[18:10] <smatt454> ubuntu does not only use free software
[18:10] <soenke> hi dudes
[18:10] <robelliott2125> smatt454, i know nothing different tbh, hence me saying "as far as i know"
[18:10] <gd1> robelliot2125: it's not a matter of charge, but of "free software". I want a clean Ubuntu box with only free software
[18:10] <smatt454> ok
[18:11] <fsufitch> pLr, my restricted manager gave me this "wl" thing, but it's enabled and "Not in use"
[18:11] <robelliott2125> tuxice, i haven't filled any reports, but the thing is, the filesystem is NTFS, and all data was readable from both XP and Gutsy prior to me updating
[18:11] <soenke> wanna run dos application in wine with 640x480 on hardy (thinkpad t61) - but I get output "err:x11settings:X11DRV_ChangeDisplaySettingsEx No matching mode found 640x480x8 @0! (XRandR)" - anyone?
[18:11] <Dans34> i just got the ftpmonitor package from apt-get but i can work out  how to start it
[18:11] <Pici> gd1: You may want to look into gnewsense or gobuntu if you want *only* foss software. ootb, Ubuntu only ships with free software, but you can easily add proprietary and other licensed software using the restricted repositories.
[18:11] <soenke> btw. with worked with ATI graphics
[18:11] <GleepGlop> !iscsi
[18:12] <zechs> hi all : synaptic froze at 'generating locales, tr_CY.UTF-8' and now I can't use synaptic anymore.  Trying a dpkg --configure -a leaves the system hanging, doing nothing... what's going on and how do I fix this?  A similar problem happened when I tried upgrading to 8.04, but the desktop no longer loaded, and I had to reinstall from an old CD.
[18:12] <tuxice> robelliott2125: possibly corrupted?
[18:12] <robelliott2125> When the upgrade went belly up, I switched the pc off, and ended up having to install hardy from cd yesterday, but since, i've not been able to access any of the drives within the OS, nor access any info tuxice
[18:12] <pLr> fsufitch: it should show automatically, if not reinstall restricted-manager
[18:12] <GleepGlop> how to I initiate an iscsi target in ubuntu?
[18:12] <tuxice> robelliott2125: the upgrade went belly up and you switched the pc off?
[18:12] <tuxice> ??????????
[18:12] <robelliott2125> I hope not tuxice, since those were brand new drives.  If you check out the link i sent, it shows, one is a backup of linux stuffs, since i've had problems
[18:13] <tuxice> robelliott2125: i am going to say the drives are corrupted.
[18:13] <maikkari> hi im newbie
[18:13] <tuxice> robelliott2125: it is reccommended you NEVER switch off during an update
[18:13] <velvithammer> hehe
[18:13] <robelliott2125> Yes, I downloaded the upgrade two nights ago, it froze, I switched off.  I had planned on simply sorting it yesterday, but instead spent all day reinstalling, and just trying to get the system running
[18:14] <fsufitch> pLr, no current candidate or version found for restricted-manager
[18:14] <fsufitch> is there somewhere i can get its deb?
[18:14] <robelliott2125> tuxice, I wouldn't normally ever switch off, but it had become frozen, i'd left it stuck at "15 mins to go" for an hour with no change, so I felt bedtime and deal tomorrow would suffice.
[18:14] <zechs> I'm  using a thinkpad x61 with core2; how do I know whether to use 32 bit ubuntu livecd or 64 bit?
[18:14] <zechs> 32 bit doesn't even boot, but i've owned a thinkpad x61 before which did install ubuntu from that same livecd
[18:14] <tuxice> robelliott2125: i see.
[18:14] <pLr> fsufitch: enable restricted / third party in synaptic
[18:15] <Sinnerman> i think i have found a bug in ntfs-3g; or something. when i mount a filesystem normally, i get all my files, some of which have unicode characters. i then mounted the same filesystem readonly, and a bunch of those files with unicode characters disappear. when i mount the partition readwrite again, the files reappear. why is that?
[18:15] <tuxice> robelliott2125: unfortunatly i do not have the answer to your problem
[18:15] <robelliott2125> Well, swallowing my pride, and accepting the loss of data tuxice, is there any way if I were to format the drives to EXT3, do you think the drives would be recognisable within Hardy?
[18:16] <fsufitch> pLr, they're already enabled. i always do that first when installing ubuntu ;)
[18:16] <tuxice> robelliott2125: i think there is a chance
[18:16] <etale> 32 bit doesn't even boot, but i've owned a thinkpad x61 before which did install ubuntu from that same livecd
[18:16] <etale> can someone help??
[18:16] <robelliott2125> No problem, I found a way to solve the freezing in updating yesterday, typically, so my lesson is learnt as far as updating Linux, but I just need the drives working again, with or without the data.
[18:16] <tuxice> robelliott2125: ok
[18:17] <pLr> fsufitch: you should be able to apt-get remove and apt-get install restricted-manager.. get past this we can talk.
[18:17] <robelliott2125> Thats good then tuxice, i just hope I can get the drives working again, but i've no clue about getting the drives to automount in Fstab, so is there anything you'd recommend to help me with that side of things?
[18:17] <Dethray> Keep getting an inout/output error during an install on my desktop.  Seems like it is borking right after the creation of the partitions.  Can't seem to get passed it
[18:18] <tuxice> robelliott2125: they actually should automount after a reboot (of course after youve formated them ext3)
[18:18] <tuxice> fstab should already recognize them
[18:18] <robelliott2125> would it matter with me formatting them from ntfs to ext3?
[18:18] <tuxice> no, it shouldnt
[18:18] <soundray> Dethray: that's usually a hardware fault with the disk. You could run test utilities from the smartmontools package from the live CD on the HD.
[18:19] <robelliott2125> Excellent.  I did have a prob when using gutsy as far as the drives go, but hoping it works for hardy.
[18:19] <kromcuich> please help with apache error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/39171/
[18:20] <tuxice> remember after formatting to leave the computer off for 35 seconds too let the drives stop spinning
[18:20] <theoby> hello! where can i find the ping source code on the pc?
[18:20] <tuxice> robelliott2125: Hope this works for you!
[18:20] <Dethray> Smartmon shows the drive healthy
[18:20] <robelliott2125> Yeah, i know those tuxice, as much as i'm new to linux, i'm not new to pcs.  So just trying to sort out the annoying issues.  :P
[18:20] <robelliott2125> So do I tuxice, thank you for your help :D
[18:20] <tuxice> robelliott2125: good, good
[18:20] <unperson> I'm using the lightning calendaring extension for thunderbird.  I assume that the settings for it are stored in a file somewhere under my home directory.  Anyone have any idea the name of such a file or where it would be?
[18:20] <tuxice> robelliott2125: No Problem
[18:21] <Pici> theoby: apt-get source iputils-ping
[18:21] <soundray> theoby: you have to enable source code repositories and 'apt-get source  iputils-ping'
[18:21] <robelliott2125> One other prob tuxice, any ideas how to change the refresh and resolution on an Intel card?  Since I can't seem to do it within a GUI on Hardy.
[18:22] <cwill747> !fixres | robelliott2125
[18:22] <fsufitch> pLr, ubuntu hardy comes with jockey-gtk which apparently provides the functionality of restricted-manager. it is accessible in System > Administration > Hardware Drivers
[18:23] <soundray> unperson: you could make a change to those settings and then run 'find ~ -mmin -2' to find out which files under your home dir have changed in the last two minutes
[18:23] <robelliott2125> Nice one cwill747, thank you!!!
[18:23] <theoby> soundray: i did that, but i didn't understand why i have to do that. i'm new to linux.
[18:23] <tuxice> robelliott2125: possibly modify your xorg?
[18:23] <soundray> theoby: what is it that you don't understand?
[18:24] <tuxice> robelliott2125: did you go to system --> preferences --> screen resolution?
[18:24] <tsolox> how can i know, what that language is, during ubuntu installation..since I cannot read it's written in the language symbols..i just want to add that language support in my application...in ubuntu...
[18:24] <unperson> soundray, good idea!  I thought of doing something like that, but I wasn't sure what tool to use to detect the change.
[18:24] <robelliott2125> Yeah, first thing I tried, but it doesn't allow me to chose my gfx card / monitor unlike gutsy did
[18:24] <soundray> robelliott2125: try with 'gksudo displayconfig-gtk'
[18:24] <robelliott2125> Thanks soundray
[18:25] <the_eraser> Hi
[18:25] <Sinnerman> i think i have found a bug in ntfs-3g or gnome mount thing; or something. when i mount a filesystem normally, i get all my files, some of which have unicode characters. i then mounted the same filesystem readonly, and a bunch of those files with unicode characters disappear. when i mount the partition readwrite again, the files reappear. why is that? the problem only happens if i mount a partition from within gnome (ie, removable devices).
[18:25] <soundray> !hi | the_eraser
[18:25] <robelliott2125> Damn you soundray, i love you!  :D
[18:25]  * soundray blushes
[18:25] <the_eraser> how do i access the bittorrent prefs in Opera? I find nothing :-)
[18:25] <lirit> how can i use grep to include the search with subdirectories?
[18:25] <pLr> fsufitch: i have not used that one.. sorry :(
[18:25] <robelliott2125> :P
[18:25] <soundray> lirit: -r
[18:26] <Dans34> what are .cpp , .h and .lsm  used for  ?
[18:26] <jones> anyone know how to set totem media player to open videos without the controls showing?
[18:26] <theoby> soundray: i'm getting this error, 'dpkg-source -x iputils_20071127-1.dsc' failed.
[18:26] <fsufitch> pLr, dang. well, i found that using hardy backports might work. i installed them and am rebooting now. i rly hope this does it
[18:26] <Kelen> Hi, everyone, why the processes compiz.real , gnome-panel , nautilus , alwasy used much of memory, is that any wrong with me?
[18:26] <whitman> Dans34, source code.
[18:26] <Rev> hi people
[18:27] <the_eraser> !hi | Rev
[18:27] <Dans34> ah so i have to compile packages from apt-get ?
[18:27] <Rev> i'm gonna buy some RAM memory, but before that, how can I precisely know which RAM do i need?
[18:27] <ZeroA4> Dans34, .cpp is a C++ source code file, .h is a header file... lsm dont know
[18:27] <kromcuich> after installing tomcat, apache does not work anymore. tomcat deinstalled. i get apache error: apache error: http://paste.ubuntu.com/39171/ please help
[18:27] <Rev> its pc2700 i believe, but i dont know if there are different frequencies
[18:27] <Rev> is there a way to obtain such information?
[18:27] <whitman> Dans34, you shouldn't have to, though you can get source code via apt
[18:27] <soundray> theoby: you should do this in a directory where you have write access. Best to create a source directory in your home: 'mkdir $HOME/src' and change to it: 'cd $HOME/src' before you run apt-get source
[18:28] <tuxice> rev: the main thing is to know pc2700 and if it is ddr2 or ddr3 or ddr1
[18:28] <ZeroA4> Dans34, no... apt-get can download binaries too
[18:28] <gd1> Pici: but in Ubuntu 7.10, did it *automatically* install non-free software
[18:28] <kitche> kromcuich: well apache2 is running
[18:28] <soundray> Rev: consult your mainboard documentation, or ask in ##hardware
[18:28] <Dans34> whitman : i got the ftpmonitor package from atp-get but im clueless on how i get it to start
[18:28] <Pici> gd1: Not to my knowledge
[18:28] <Spruce> Ello all, is anyone here able to give me a hand with ndiswapper, I got the drivers installed (I think) the GUI is showing the hardware is present, yet there is no option for wireless in my network pref's
[18:28] <Rev> #hardware
[18:28] <gd1> Pici: but you think no
[18:28] <Pici> gd1: although.... it might.
[18:28] <gd1> uhm
[18:28] <Rev> oops typo
[18:29] <Pici> gd1: I'm not sure now, you've put doubt in my mind.
[18:29] <the_eraser> anyone know how to check network traffic from terminal?
[18:29] <the_eraser> i mean speed
[18:29] <the_eraser> or
[18:29] <Rev> tuxice, how can i know if its ddr2 or 3 or 1?
[18:29] <whitman> Dans34, are you running ubuntu or kubuntu?  ftpmonitor is an applet for a kubuntu application.
[18:29] <kromcuich> kitche: well, i canot browse to it on localhost, IP, anything
[18:29] <Sinnerman> this problem does not happen when i manually mount it.
[18:29] <the_eraser> i mean traffic
[18:29] <Dans34> im running unbuntu
[18:29] <unperson> soundray, Well, it was a good shot.  Unless it's stored somewhere else entirely (or hadn't been written to the HD yet for some reason) it looks like is must be in some binary file.
[18:30] <tuxice> rev: did you build the computer yourself
[18:30] <gd1> Pici: in Firefox, under "Additional components" (dunno what's in English) I see a DivX web player. Actually I do not think it's FREE software
[18:30] <Dans34> *ubuntu
[18:30] <Av1> hey is there any VOIP service with which you call call north america for free
[18:30] <Pici> gd1: That shouldnt be there by default.
[18:30] <gd1> it's so annoying
[18:30] <whitman> Dans34, then ftpmonitor probably isn't what you want
[18:30] <unperson> soundray, ...which is a very un*nixy way to do it, it seems to me.
[18:30] <Pici> gd1: Unless you've installed something that pulled that in.
[18:30] <gd1> 7.10 had a bunch of nonfree rubbish
[18:30] <unperson> Av1, You mean call a land line?
[18:30]  * the_eraser needs Help
[18:30] <Dans34> whitman: know of a app that will do the same
[18:31] <gd1> in 8.04 they put an option before install
[18:31] <gd1> how can cleanup that rubbish?
[18:31] <Av1> unperson: landline or mobile
[18:31] <unperson> Av1, Or rather, you mean call a phone (rather than a computer running VIOP software)?
[18:31] <soundray> unperson: or perhaps it's not written to a file immediately after making the setting, in which case you should try exiting thunderbird before using find
[18:31] <whitman> Dans34, nope, sorry.
[18:31] <Av1> unperson : yes that is correct
[18:31] <unperson> Av1, And you mean call internationally?
[18:31] <the_eraser> anyone know how to check network traffic from terminal?
[18:32] <Av1> unperson : yes
[18:32] <unperson> soundray, right
[18:32] <Dans34> does anyone know of an app like ftpmonitor .. that will run under plain ubuntu  ?
[18:32] <unperson> Av1, I don't.  And I doubt one exists.
[18:32] <Dans34> whitman : thanks anyway
[18:32] <gd1> hi?
[18:32] <soundray> Av1: jajah is free on landlines if both partners are registered
[18:32] <Av1> there is many for windows
[18:32] <erlend> hi, how do I install the drivers for my graphic card in ubuntu? it's nvidia geforce 7600
[18:33] <soundray> erlend: System-Administration-Hardware Drivers
[18:33] <robelliott2125> Thank you soundray, thats worked!!!  :D  My res / ref works beautifully now!  :D
[18:33] <unperson> Av1, I guess the thing I don't understand is that operating such a thing would cost money.  I don't get where they'd make it up.
[18:33] <Av1> erland: you need to install envy package
[18:33] <robelliott2125> tuxice, I'm about to format the drives...  Before I do, is there anything you can possibly think of, which might be able to pull data off?
[18:33] <soundray> Av1: please don't recommend envy ( erland)
[18:34] <unperson> Av1, I guess if it's a ploy to get you to buy some other service, but I don't see what that would be.
[18:34] <Av1> unperson : it does not cost money
[18:34] <soundray> !envy | Av1, erlend
[18:34] <Av1> soundray
[18:34] <tuxice> robelliot2125: i do not know of a tool that can if they are not recognized. Sorry :(
[18:34] <kromcuich> kitche: another error in apache logs says: apache error [error] Init: Private key not found. What does this mean?
[18:34] <robelliott2125> No worries tuxice, *sigh*...  Nevermind
[18:35] <robelliott2125> Got more things to annoy you guys with anyway :P
[18:35] <Av1> soundray envy is good
[18:35] <Av1> u am using it
[18:35]  * robelliott2125 misses gutsy already :(
[18:35] <tuxice> Sorry :(
[18:35] <Av1> I am using it
[18:35] <robelliott2125> Ahhh, no worries tuxice, as long as i can get the drives working again.
[18:35]  * robelliott2125 needs offsite backups now
[18:35] <linxeh> or just backups :)
[18:35] <tuxice> you may be able to use a data recoverie program after the drives are formatted.
[18:36] <soundray> Av1: envy is unsupported and risky, so unless you are prepared to be in this channel around the clock to help people with it, don't recommend it here.
[18:36] <robelliott2125> linxeh, i do backup, but the drive doesn't appear since going from gutsy to hardy :(
[18:36] <Dethray> Ugh, Envy
[18:36] <robelliott2125> Nah, its ok tuxice, as long as the drives work, thats the main thing.  The data can be rebuilt.
[18:36] <Av1> soundray what do you suggest
[18:36] <linxeh> robelliott2125: well boot the gutsy live cd
[18:36] <Dans34> does anyone know of an app like ftpmonitor .. that will run under plain ubuntu  ?
[18:36] <Dethray> Use a wiki
[18:37] <linxeh> robelliott2125: does the device apear in dmesg / messages ?
[18:37] <soundray> Av1: see my reply to erlend, as well as ubottu's factoid ^^
[18:37] <robelliott2125> I did linxeh, the drives appear and mount, but no data is able to be seen
[18:37] <robelliott2125> I don't know what you mean linxeh, i'm "new" to ubuntu
[18:37] <linxeh> robelliott2125: odd :/
[18:37] <robelliott2125> Yeah
[18:37] <King_Koopa> Anyone know how to get Damn Small Linux to work with a wireless card to connect to the internet?
[18:37] <Dethray> cat dmesg and see if there are any errors :)
[18:38] <robelliott2125> Basically linxeh, as i am atm, theres no other drives, apart from within GParted.
[18:38] <linuxkrn> is there a mirror select tool for updates?  I'm getting 680Bytes/s on us.archive.ubuntu.com :(
[18:38] <soundray> King_Koopa: this channel is for Ubuntu support - we can't provide help with other distributions here
[18:38] <King_Koopa>  OK, thanks.
[18:38] <Flannel> linuxkrn: software sources in your admin menu
[18:38] <robelliott2125> However, when I booted into live, it showed the drives, and two folders (when viewing hidden folders), one being .trash and another I can't recall.  But the trash folder showed stuff I had recently deleted before all this happened.
[18:38] <robelliott2125> However, when I booted into live, it showed the drives, and two folders (when viewing hidden folders), one being .trash and another I can't recall.  But the trash folder showed stuff I had recently deleted before all this happened. @ linxeh
[18:38] <Flannel> linuxkrn: Updates use the same repos as regular apt-get stuff
[18:39] <Av1> cant find your reply soundray
[18:39] <soundray> King_Koopa: for what it's worth, have a look at the Ubuntu wireless docs -- it may or may not be applicable to DSL
[18:39] <soundray> !wifi > King_Koopa
[18:39] <unperson> soundray, Well, still nothing I can find.  Thanks for your help, though.  Your idea was a good one.
[18:39] <soundray> Av1: <soundray> erlend: System-Administration-Hardware Drivers
[18:39] <robelliott2125> Interesting thing as well linxeh, is that when checking properties of the drives, it shows theres data on there (how much used / remaining) but again, nothing viewable
[18:39] <linuxkrn> well it only has server from US or Main server... should I change it to main?
[18:39] <robelliott2125> I do have a thread open for help on the forums also linxeh
[18:39] <linxeh> robelliott2125: really odd. is any of it visible from the command line ?
[18:39] <Flannel> !mirrors | linuxkrn
[18:40] <Av1> soundray
[18:40] <robelliott2125> I wouldn't know how to do anything like that linxeh
[18:40] <Av1> i used that
[18:40] <Flannel> linuxkrn: Theres a list of mirrors, if you can't do it through the GUI, you can always just edit your sources.list by hand (it's really easy)
[18:40] <Av1> but my graphics card stopped working
[18:40] <Rev> well, there should be a command like lshw, but especially for RAM memory
[18:40] <Rev> any idea what is it?
[18:41] <linxeh> robelliott2125: open a terminal, and type "mount" - it will show your drive mount points. you can then change into that diretory with cd, and run "ls -al"
[18:41] <Av1> soundray my graphics card stopped working
[18:41] <robelliott2125> I'm confused linxeh, sorry bud
[18:41] <soundray> Av1: keep it on one line please. For most graphics card, the binary NVidia driver that jockey-gtk provided is fine. If it didn't work for you and envy did, it still doesn't mean you should recommend envy here
[18:41] <linuxkrn> ah, didn't see there was a "select best server" to auto select. :)  thanks
[18:41] <soundray> !worksforme | Av1
[18:41] <robelliott2125> linxeh, heres my post, if it helps:  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=894699

[18:44] <soundray> Av1: no, it hasn't done any harm in your case, so stick to what you have. You may have a problem, though, when you try to update your kernel or upgrade to a new Ubuntu release.
[18:44] <Gnea> DaveKong: check your dmesg for any information about it (such as the device name)
[18:44] <soundray> Av1: but you can cross that bridge when you come to it.
[18:45] <Av1> soundray: so what do you suggest to me
[18:45] <Av1> soundray: should i remove it

[18:55] <KDB9000> Need some help. Having trouble setting my wireless to a manual address. It wants me to put a security type in (WEP, WPA, etc...) but the wireless doesn't have security. So I plugged into the network and the manual for my wired won't work either. Anyone have any thoughts?

[18:56] <Sinnerman> i think i have found a bug in ntfs-3g or gnome mount thing; or something. when i mount a filesystem normally, i get all my files, some of which have unicode characters. i then mounted the same filesystem readonly, and a bunch of those files with unicode characters disappear. when i mount the partition readwrite again, the files reappear. why is that? the problem only happens if i mount a partition from within gnome (ie, removable devices). does not h

[18:56] <tuxice> dogfacehat: a common problem :)

[18:57] <KaiForce> i have two hard drives hooked up and I'm booted with a Ubuntu CD - I want to image one drive to the other.  Usually I would do something like cat /dev/hda >/dev/hdb...  what is the best way to do this?
[18:57] <linxeh> KaiForce: use dd
[18:57] <Dans34> tuxice  gftp is an ftp client   . not what i need
[18:58] <carandraug> dinesh_, enter lspci in the terminal
[18:58] <KaiForce> linxeh ok - how do I identify the devices?  they are both on the primary IDE controller, and I'm going master to slave....
[18:58] <tuxice> dans34: srry misunderstood
[18:58] <mahfiaz> Dans34, what you want a "ftpmonitor" to do?
[18:58] <linxeh> KaiForce: they will likely be sda and sdb - but check in the output of "dmesg"
[18:59] <KaiForce> ah ok thank you sir
[18:59] <linxeh> KaiForce: use something like dd if=/dev/sda of=sdb bs=1M

[19:00] <Dans34> loz  its a multi rar file
[19:01] <carandraug> dinesh_, I doubt it. That's a XP process

[19:02] <floppyears> thanks Gnea
[19:02] <Dans34> PM
[19:02] <carandraug> dinesh_, I'm not sure how to do it in widows. I think you have to go to properties of My computer and search in there for drivers and look for your network card
[19:02] <carandraug> dinesh_, also, are you having problems with wireless or ethernet cable?
[19:03] <linxeh> floppyears: it is possible, there is a guide somewhere
[19:03] <mahfiaz> dinesh_, everest home is a good program to detect your card
[19:03] <dinesh_> carandraug: my network card is e100b325.sys

[19:04] <carandraug> dinesh_, that's not your network card, it's the driver. Search for list of hardware or something like that. I believe it should look liker Intel(R) PRO/ something

[19:06] <Habernet> im running hardy heron lts on my laptop and i can barely hear sound from my laptop speakers, how do i manually turn them up in terminal?
[19:06] <LSD|Ninja> Habernet: alsamixer
[19:06] <mahfiaz> KDB9000, no, I simply prefer command line interface when debugging, it is more clear
[19:06] <ratpoison> Hardy amd64 user: my printer only works o.k. with some stupid proprietary rpm's provided by Canon. they are for x86, but I have x86_64. Can I use alien to make these rpm's into 64bit debs?
[19:07] <DrX> how do you see what permissions are granted on a folder (so you can put them back after changing them with chmod)?
[19:07] <ratpoison> 21:06:37 [Amun-Ra] too much data
[19:07] <Habernet> aha thanks mate
[19:07] <Odd-rationale> DrX: ls -l <file>
[19:07] <mahfiaz> Habernet, alsamixer
[19:07] <Odd-rationale> or folder
[19:09] <carandraug> dinesh_, to find out which network cards you have follow this guide http://compnetworking.about.com/od/windowsxpnetworking/ht/findwifiadapter.htm
[19:09] <peloverde> Does anyone know of a PPA with the latest git? or even just debs floating around?
[19:09] <Brucevdk> SSH question, is it possible to define either the use of public keys or passwords on a per account/user basis?
[19:10] <carandraug> !pm | dinesh_
[19:10] <linxeh> dum de dum
[19:10] <robelliott2125_> linxeh, you getting my pm bud?
[19:10] <Flannel> Brucevdk: Do you want to limit the key people to key only?
[19:10] <linxeh> robelliott2125_: oh you changed nick, sorry
[19:10] <asunder> I was following ubuntuguide.org and I wanted to install codecs for music/movies and such. But they've somewhat changed the guide and have recommended the package ubuntu-restricted-extras, but when I tried that it started installing fonts I didn't really want/need. What are the minimum packages needed to play mp3/flac/ogg and most video files?
[19:10] <furenku> hey everybody! I'm getting a " `/dev/raw1394': No such file or directory", this wasn't happening before, any ideas?
[19:10] <robelliott2125_> Only slightly linxeh, as i'm ghosted atm
[19:10] <Brucevdk> Flannel: what do you mean?
[19:11] <Flannel> Brucevdk: some people like disallowing password logins when using public keys, did you?
[19:11] <Habernet> in terminal how do i use "superuser mode", an operation im trying to do requires it.
[19:11] <Flannel> !sudo | Habernet
[19:11] <Brucevdk> Flannel: yes, I've disabled password authentication
[19:11] <carandraug> dinesh_, in the link I gave you, you need to follow only the instruction until step 5. All that appears there are your network cards
[19:12] <mahfiaz> furenku, you upgraded your kernel?
[19:12] <furenku> mahfiaz, from gutsy to hardy
[19:12] <mahfiaz> furenku, did you do some extra modules installation before?
[19:12] <dinesh_> carandraug: my network card is intel(R)PRO/100VE
[19:13] <pmratpoison> Hardy amd64 user: my printer only works o.k. with some stupid proprietary rpm's provided by Canon. they are for x86, but I have x86_64. Can I use alien to make these rpm's into 64bit debs?
[19:13] <mahfiaz> furenku, have you looked into dmesg output? does this mentios your device?
[19:13] <Brucevdk> Flannel: I guess enabling password authentication and then using AllowUsers would be a OK solution? What do you think?
[19:13] <KDB9000> mahfiaz: So what do I have to do to set the IP using iwconfig?
[19:13] <Flannel> Brucevdk: only thing I can think of for a mixed environment is to allow both.  The people who don't have keys obviously can't use them.  but then you run into the problem of allowing people with keys to log in with passwords.
[19:13] <dabbu> what is helix player
[19:13] <dabbu> !helix
[19:13] <dabbu> !helix player
[19:14] <godzirra> I just went through the cups setup, and I have a printer that I can print a test page to from the CUPS internal webpage, but when I try and print from firefox, there are no printers listed.
[19:14] <furenku> mahfiaz, yes there is mention: " raw1394: disagrees about version of symbol hpsb_iso_recv_release_packets"
[19:14] <Brucevdk> Flannel: yeah that just crossed my mind too, I only want people designated as "must have keys" to be able to login with keys (not passwords)
[19:14] <kbrosnan> godzirra: firefox 3 uses the gnome print manager
[19:14] <mahfiaz> KDB9000, "iwconfig eth0 essid "my network essid" key "network key"
[19:14] <mahfiaz> "ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.5"
[19:14] <mahfiaz> where eth0 is your device
[19:14] <carandraug> dinesh_, take a look at this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=804691
[19:14] <Flannel> Brucevdk: allowusers is only used for who can access at all, through whatever means.
[19:15] <hagna> so <Super>2 is bound to some zooming in program, but how do I know which one?
[19:15] <DrX> will "chmod 777 folder" yield read-write access for everyone or is there a better way?
[19:15] <Flannel> Brucevdk: Do the people with keys have admin access?
[19:15] <mahfiaz> furenku, search google for this, somebody may have stumbled on this before
[19:15] <godzirra> kbrosnan: Hrm... okay, so what do I need to do to get it to be able to print from firefox?  It works on my laptop, just not my wife's.
[19:15] <Flannel> DrX: 777 is bad.  you don't want execute bits on files.
[19:15] <Brucevdk> Flannel: not perse
[19:15] <KDB9000> mahfiaz: What is with the key? If that is for the security, the wireless doesn't have security on it
[19:16] <furenku> mahfiaz, is there a way to quickly restore the kernel to the distribution default?
[19:16] <Flannel> Brucevdk: Since, if none of them could sudo, theoretically you could lock their accounts (I believe that won't affect the key based auth)
[19:16] <mahfiaz> KDB9000, then just leave key part out
[19:16] <dinesh_> carandraug i had send u my network card
[19:16] <kbrosnan> godzirra: if your on vanilla ubuntu add a cups printer through the gnome print manager? i'm not totally sure i don't have a pritner
[19:16] <Brucevdk> Flannel: "lock their accounts"?
[19:16] <Flannel> Brucevdk: passwd -l account
[19:16] <mahfiaz> furenku, apt-get install linux-generic ??
[19:16] <Flannel> Brucevdk: Changes the password has to something that could never be generated (by inserting illegal characters)
[19:17] <Flannel> Brucevdk: that is, password hash.
[19:17] <furenku> mahfiaz, what about apt-get install linux-image-2.6.24-19-rt
[19:17] <carandraug> dinesh_, are you sure you have problems connecting to internet with ubuntu or are just afraid that you will? What kind of network do you have?
[19:17] <Dans34> does anyone know  of an app or a command that displays incomming ftp connections  .. that will run under plain ubuntu  ?
[19:17] <flush> yo mayday
[19:17] <FloodBot1> !netsplit
[19:17] <flush> i have installed kismet, the wireless utility, now it has make a clone of my ath0 named kis0
[19:17] <KDB9000> mahfiaz: alright
[19:18] <Flannel> Brucevdk: It might lock them out of key based auth as well, I'm not sure.
[19:18] <flush> yo i have installed kismet, the wireless utility, now it has make a clone of my ath0 named kis0.. how the heck do i remove kis0 ?
[19:18] <mahfiaz> furenku, rt should be fine, but generic is usually considered more stable
[19:18] <zorrolero> Dans34: lsof
[19:18] <Brucevdk> Flannel: let me try it out for a second, but this still doesn't sound ideal ;-)
[19:18] <dinesh_> i am surely having the problem in wireless i have disscussed it with my friends but unable to get the answer
[19:19] <Flannel> Brucevdk: No, I agree it doesn't.  You might ask in #ubuntu-server, or even try a ssh channel (#ssh? #openssh? they both exist, no idea re: activity in either)
[19:19] <carandraug> dinesh_, from what I've read in the internet, you shouldn't have problems with the network card, only configuring the connection
[19:19] <mahfiaz> dinesh_: what card you have?
[19:19] <carandraug> !wifi | dinesh_
[19:20] <Brucevdk> Flannel: thanks, I'll try those out ;)
[19:20] <dinesh_> caraundraug: yes wifi
[19:20] <godzirra> kbrosnan: Its a wireless printer using lpd not cups per se... It just happened to work when I installed it on my laptop using the cups management site.
[19:21] <Dans34> zorrolero : is there a way to limit it to a certain port ?
[19:21] <l3d> ok I have installed ircd-hybrid and have since removed it but I went to reinstall it and one of the marked and installed depend have since got  a error popping up and I dont know what to do?
[19:21] <godzirra> kbrosnan: Also, my wife is using the exact same version of firefox I am.  3.0.1
[19:21] <carandraug> dinesh_, that a look at that link from ubottu . It explains everything better than I ever could
[19:21] <l3d> the package I am talking about is ngircd
[19:22] <DrX> Flannel: what should I use instead?
[19:22] <dinesh_> caraundraug:all my friends that are having vista as the other os are facing this problem but those with xp doesnot have the problem
[19:22] <Flannel> DrX: +rwX
[19:22] <Pilou1234> bonjour a tous
[19:22] <l3d> this is the error i get when I try to remove it or even reinstall it E: /var/cache/apt/archives/ngircd_0.10.3-2_i386.deb: subprocess new pre-removal script returned error exit status 1

[19:23] <Gnea> !fr | Pilou1234
[19:23] <carandraug> dinesh_, I got it. But I have nothing to do with XP or Vista. Take a look at ubottu link. I do think however that your problem is with in connecting not in the drivers
[19:23] <dinesh_> caraundraug: i am a begineer in linux so plz help me from where to start learning linux and also suggest some books and websites plz
[19:24] <bazz> is there a way to have a hotkey that will lock the mouse to only move on one axis.  so like, if i hit ctrl-alt-x (or whatever) then the mouse will only move left and right but not up and down
[19:25] <goudkov> on hardy, it sees cd-r discs as cd-rw and can't write to them. is there anything i can do?
[19:25] <carandraug> dinesh_, for help with ubuntu you should start by searching in the forums ( http://ubuntuforums.org/ ) or in the user documentation ( https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ )
[19:25] <godzirra> I just went through the cups setup, and I have a printer that I can print a test page to from the CUPS internal webpage, but when I try and print from firefox, there are no printers listed.  The page is a wireless printer, not one through a cups server per se, using LPD.
[19:25] <DrX> Flannel: what if I want to open everything up temporarily for testing purposes?
[19:26] <Sebben> Hi guys! I was wondering: is there an RSS feed I can subscribe to that will let me know whenever there are new security updates for the latest LTS? or when security issues are getting known. Just to stay in the loop and stay updated without to much effort on my part :) Thanks
[19:26] <KaiForce> linxeh thank you, dd is working.  the /sda & /sdb threw me a bit.
[19:27] <Brucevdk> Flannel: took me a while but locking an account will result in "Your account has expired; please contact your system administrator" when connecting over SSH
[19:28] <Brucevdk> Flannel: just thought I'd let you know ;)
[19:28] <onthefence928> what's a good calender/scheduling utility for me to use? i am using ubuntu 8.04 and thunderbird/firefox, alos i would like it to be able to sync easily with my WM5 smart phone. what would be my best option?
[19:29] <LamerC> Under a file/folder properties, sometimes there are extra permission values in the 'Number view' such as '1600755'. I know what the '0755' is forr, but what is the '160' part?
[19:29] <egosintrick> Sebben, Ubuntu automatically informs you of available security updates
[19:30] <Sebben> egosintrick: yes I guess that is the case if you are running the desktop version? I have it on my server. My desktop is a mac. That is why I need some sort of announcement list. I might just have found what I was looking for though: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-security-announce
[19:30] <Evil> Can anyone help me get Ubuntu Hardy edition online using Wireless Networks?
[19:30] <onthefence928> does google calender sync up well with ubuntu (if so, what plug-ins/packages do i need?)
[19:31] <egosintrick> ahhh
[19:31] <carandraug> onthefence928, you have Mozilla Sunbird

[19:31] <Ayabara> when I run alt+f2 to launch an application, what paths does it look for applications in?
[19:32] <SNuxoll> Ayabara: whatever is in your $PATH
[19:32] <Ayabara> SNuxoll: I respectfully disagree :)
[19:33] <SNuxoll> Ayabara: /bin;/usr/bin;/usr/local/bin;/sbin;/usr/sbin I'd assume
[19:33] <Ayabara> SNuxoll: or maybe not. I have set stuff in my .bashrc that it doesn't use. where do I need to set it?
[19:33] <egosintrick> hmm thats a good link sebben i've been relying on my desktop updates
[19:33] <SNuxoll> Ayabara: how are you setting your path in .bashrc?
[19:33] <AdrianN> hello

[19:33] <AdrianN> can any1 help me to setup a server pls? version 8.04 up
[19:33] <carandraug> onthefence928, or Mozilla Lightning which is a Thunderbird extension. Don't know about sync with your smart phone
[19:33] <Ayabara> SNuxoll: PATH=/usr/lib/kde4/bin:$PATH, and export PATH
[19:34] <KDB9000_> mahfiaz: can you see this?
[19:34] <Pici> AdrianN: What issues are you having?
[19:34] <Gnea> !server | AdrianN
[19:34] <godzirra> I just went through the cups setup, and I have a printer that I can print a test page to from the CUPS internal webpage, but when I try and print from firefox, there are no printers listed.  The page is a wireless printer, not one through a cups server per se, using LPD.
[19:34] <SNuxoll> Ayabara: export PATH=/usr/lib/kde4/bin:$PATH
[19:34] <AdrianN> i have 5 networks cards up
[19:35] <AdrianN> 1rst one is eth0... and there is a static ip adress
[19:35] <Ayabara> SNuxoll: that's the same I think. at least the path works like it should in a shell
[19:35] <grobda24> What is like Zenity but installed on all sytems KDE and Gnome ?
[19:35] <AdrianN> the other 4 are going each one to an access point
[19:35] <SNuxoll> grobda24: dialog
[19:35] <SNuxoll> grobda24: it's cli though
[19:35] <SNuxoll> Ayabara: odd
[19:35] <KDB9000_> mahfiaz: it seems to have worked that way but I can't do that everytime I come to work and then switch it back when I am at home
[19:36] <Gnea> godzirra: double check your default printer with system->administration->printing
[19:36] <JL1213> Hello. I just received my copy of Ubuntu 8.04.1 LTS Desktop Edition. I cannot seem to get it to register my wireless network. I have run the hardware check, and it is registering my hardware correctly, but it is still not connecting. Help?
[19:36] <AdrianN> i want eth1-4 to have 192.168.*.* but the clients to have other ips
[19:36] <grobda24> SNuxoll, yes, I might use that in a console window, but it won't match nautilus very well (a nautilus script).
[19:36] <carandraug> AdrianN, you should state your problem in one line only. It's almost impossible to understand since it's splitted in so many pieces with other people problems in the middle
[19:36] <SNuxoll> grobda24: most nautilus script's I've seen use zenity
[19:36] <Gnea> !wireless | JL1213
[19:36] <AdrianN> ok
[19:36] <grobda24> SNuxoll, yes, but what about KDE users ?
[19:37] <SNuxoll> grobda24: a nautilus script won't work in KDE now, will it?

[19:38] <dinesh_> please help me in beginning with linux
[19:38] <DIFH-iceroot> dinesh_: ask your question
[19:38] <PolitikerALT> kubuntu 8.04 is not LTS
[19:38] <Gnea> dinesh_: www.linuxnewbieguide.org
[19:38] <DIFH-iceroot> PolitikerALT: kubuntu.org says its lts
[19:38] <remsSs> dinesh_: what do you want to know
[19:39] <DIFH-iceroot> but i dont know if kde has also lts
[19:39] <SNuxoll> Kubuntu 8.04 is a LTS, yes
[19:39] <Gnea> !lts

[19:39] <dinesh_> remsSS;i want to know how to learn linux hen u are a beginner
[19:40] <Gnea> dinesh_: are you using windows right now?
[19:40] <PolitikerALT> sure? I thought kde 4.0 was too unstable and kde 3.5.9 too old
[19:40] <remsSs> me i know a few linux but i am very bad in english
[19:40] <IdleOne> dinesh_, you install ubuntu and you use it
[19:40] <grobda24> SNuxoll, no it won't, this is connected to an old problem I had with something else that I needed a generic solution to, thanks :)
[19:40] <dinesh_> gNEA:yes i am using window right now
[19:41] <arno-t> hi all I have a PC with an old BIOS and GRUB throws error 18. I guess I can manually partition putting the grub necessary files in the beginning of the disk.  Should I make / the nearest to the beginning, or is /boot sufficient?
[19:41] <Gnea> dinesh_: you should try WUBI then.
[19:41] <Gnea> !wubi | dinesh_
[19:42] <SNuxoll> arno-t: how old is your BIOS?

[19:49] <BraveSpear> !dexconf
[19:49] <dinesh_> gNEa thanks
[19:50] <BraveSpear> I need to set screen resolution and refresh rate on a livecd i'm creating.  From what I understand, dexconf creates the xorg.conf on the fly.. I need to know how to have the livecd boot with a resolution of 1024x768 x 16bit color with 60hx frefresh rate
[19:50] <Omar87> May I ask a question? ubotu was written in what language? :)

[19:51] <Gnea> BraveSpear: i don't think dexconf and ubuntu get along well
[19:51] <BraveSpear> When the livecd I am creating boots up, it auto detects the monitor and vid card, and dynamically sets the resolution, refresh and color depth on the fly. If it worked on all pc's, then it wouldn't be an issue (the livecd is one I am creating for our work-at-home users that need to access citrix via a web browser through vpn).

[19:54] <Av1> so what does that mean ubuntu
[19:54] <Av1> Pici
[19:55] <Av1> is it possible?
[19:55] <Pici> Av1: That means you should go look up IE7 at http://appdb.winehq.org
[19:55] <mydoghasworms> When plugging in a digital camera, is it supposed to create a device where you can access the files?
[19:56] <BraveSpear> linxeh: its not so bad :/ - the citrix piece is working great, the vpn is running rock solid.. its just all these smaller issues where I need to hard code the refresh rate/resolution/color depth for my managers.
[19:56] <Gnea> mydoghasworms: usually, the f-spot program is launched upon successful detection
[19:56] <linxeh> BraveSpear: citrix served apps suck, but it's the best of a bad bunch I guess :)

[19:57] <BraveSpear> I've been learning linux hardcore for about the past 6 weeks to get to this point (was a dabbler before.. although I've got set up some gentoo LAMP servers)
[19:57] <Slade> doesn't seem to work right. the ie6 works fine

[19:58] <BraveSpear> linxeh: I suppose you're on to something there :)
[19:58] <Slade> some sites at my job require IE
[19:59] <Wipster> here's a question, when I installed the res was at its maximum possible (my screen is a CRT) now that I have set it to a res that my screen can display nicely I find that I cannot change the res any more....., the screen goes black it looks like its trying to apply it but doesn't actualy change
[19:59] <Pici> BraveSpear: You may want to try asking in #xorg and #ubuntu-x barring a good answer from here.
[19:59] <BraveSpear> ale22944: try remastersys
[19:59] <tj1515_> Slade: virtual machine?
[19:59] <Av1> is there any way of running I.E 7 in ubuntu

[19:59] <Pici> Av1: And?
[19:59] <Av1> and it says

[20:20] <TJ-Linux> so to install the nvidia drivers for my new card, would you all recommend I try the complete manual install first, or try EnvyNG?

[20:32] <mahrellon> *remove
[20:32] <godzirra> Gnea: I did.  There's no printer listed there.
[20:33] <Gnea> godzirra: then you'll need to re-add it
[20:33] <jatz> Hey, dumb question but I accidentally moved a large directory to the trash. when I try to move it out, it says not enough room.
[20:33] <odinsbane> has anybody here had trouble with firefox3 while they have firefox2 installed?
[20:33] <godzirra> Gnea: I've done that twice.  Its listed in the cups management page, even though its a wireless printer...
[20:33] <Gnea> !trash | jatz
[20:33] <godzirra> Gnea: and if I go to the cups internral website (localhost:631) I can print a test page just fine.
[20:34] <Gnea> godzirra: ... whether it's wired or not makes no difference, a printer device is a printer device
[20:34] <godzirra> Gnea: It just doesnt show up when I try and print from firefox (and quite possibly any other program)
[20:34] <godzirra> Gnea: Right, but its obviously setup somewhere... I can print a test page to it.
[20:34] <jatz> Gnea: I just clicked the trash icon and looked at the files.
[20:34] <Gnea> godzirra: ok, well the cups local site uses the same configs that the regular dialog would, so could you please pastebin your /etc/hosts file?
[20:35] <carandraug> I believe I have a hardware problem that doesn't allow me to install ubuntu. It just keeps on complaining about http://pastebin.com/m3aa2e888 I've installed it several times (on other computers) but never had such problem.
[20:35] <Gnea> jatz: but can you see the files in that directory using the commandline?
[20:35] <jatz> yeah
[20:36] <jatz> Gnea: I moved them back to my home directory in the shell
[20:36] <godzirra> Gnea: sure, one sec.  (its retyped, but one sec)
[20:36] <eureka> Hi, I have lost my Desktop folder and now everything under /home/user folder appears on the Desktop. Could you please advice?
[20:36] <jatz> but shouldn't I be able to drag it out of the trash?
[20:36] <sbacheler> Just had ubuntu 8.04 crash on me. I have tried to start Gnome, but it seems to have crashed as well. Could someone help me?
[20:36] <godzirra> Gnea: ok, on both laptops it has nothing special about printers in the hosts file.
[20:36] <godzirra> Gnea: on my laptop (ruinning intrepid) it works, on my wifes (running hardy) it doesn't
[20:36] <test34> If you have overlapping partitions in your partition table (I know its really bad, but it must have been corrupted some how), the Ubuntu installer doesnt detect any partitions... yet Slackware and Windows do
[20:37] <Carroarmato0> I've set-up a Vpn over pptp on my Ubuntu box. The interface created is ppp0.  I wish to link the ppp0 interface to eth0 so I'm able to go online through my vpn.
[20:37] <Gnea> jatz: if you've already moved it via the commandline, it shouldn't show on the desktop trashbin anymore
[20:37] <hitman1985> no sound on flash with pulse audio installed ? any help ?
[20:37] <mralexandro> i heard about a program that made it possible to play "pc" games in llinux
[20:37] <Qster> wine?
[20:38] <jatz> Gnea: I know. i mean, shouldn't I have been able to move out of the trash from nautilus?
[20:38] <carandraug> mralexandro, it's called wine
[20:38] <mralexandro> ok
[20:38] <test34> mralexandro: you probably mean Windows
[20:38] <mralexandro> thanks:)
[20:38] <carandraug> !wine | mralexandro
[20:38] <mralexandro> yeah windows
[20:38] <Gnea> godzirra: the reason i ask, is that if the /etc/hosts file on your laptop was overwritten, then when you plug 'localhost' into the browser, it might be going elsewhere (aka, you'd be owned.)
[20:38] <Ethni> mralexandro:try wine ;-)
[20:38] <mralexandro> i will, thanks
[20:38] <chuy_max> !ati > chuy_max
[20:38] <godzirra> Gnea: Right.  Its 127.0.0.1, like it shuold be :)
[20:39] <Gnea> jatz: if it was complaining, because it was too big, then that's a limitation of nautilus - that's a bit beyond the scope of channel help here, you could try #nautilus or #gnome
[20:40] <godzirra> !ati > godzirra
[20:40] <SmokeEater85911> hey how do i check the current installed version of Alsamixer?
[20:40] <jatz> Gnea: Oh, okay. I was just wondering if I messed up my system or something.
[20:40] <jatz> Gnea: thanks
[20:40] <Gnea> godzirra: oh ok, well can you add the printer from the print dialog and send a test from the desktop that way?
[20:40] <test34> When I have compiz enabled, my mouse stop working when I start the Urban Terror game... anybody else seen this problem or know how to solve it ? (the mouse start working again when I exit the game.. and I need to disable compiz to be able to play with the mouse)
[20:40] <SmokeEater85911> oh nm found it
[20:40] <Gnea> godzirra: and if you can, does it show up when you refresh the webpage?
[20:41] <Ethni> mralexandro:try wine ;-); try in terminsl alsamixer -h
[20:41] <StevenX> Hello all. My ntfs drives are not loading up in Ubuntu automatically. I have to go to Menu --> Places --> Drive 1 / Drive 2 in order to get other programs to recognize them. How can I have them load on system start?
[20:41] <godzirra> Gnea: under system->admin->printer, thte title that pops up is "Printer configuration - 192.168.1.69" but when I click "New Printer" it says "CUPS server rror  There was an error during the CUPS operation: 'server-error-oprtation-not-supported'"
[20:42] <godzirra> Gnea: And her printer utility looks vastly different than mine.
[20:42] <Mecha25> StevenX: what you want is called fstab
[20:42] <Mecha25> !fstab
[20:43] <StevenX> Mecha25: thank you. I will look into it.
[20:43] <MiraiWarren0_0> Hey, Is xmms not in the repositories?  All I see is xmms2.
[20:43] <Sinnerman> i think ive found a bug in ntfs-3g or gnome mount. when i mount a filesystem normally, i get all my files, some of which have unicode characters. i then mounted the same filesystem readonly, and a bunch of those files with unicode characters disappear. when i mount the partition readwrite again, the files reappear. why is that? the problem only happens if i mount a partition from within gnome (ie, removable devices). does not happen manually.
[20:44] <liquidbeef> Hello, world!
[20:44]  * sudo rm -rf /*
[20:44] <Mecha25> BAD IDEA!
[20:45] <godzirra> lore20: Learn to not be a jerk. :p
[20:45] <Daisuke_Laptop> !ops | lore20
[20:45] <Daisuke_Laptop> not a wise idea.
[20:45] <Mecha25> I was wondering when somebody'd use that
[20:45] <Myrtti> !danger
[20:45] <ValentineX> Hello how to handle .tar files?
[20:45] <godzirra> ValentineX: man tar
[20:45] <Mecha25> the trigger, not the command
[20:45] <godzirra> ValentineX: depends on what you want to do. :)
[20:46] <godzirra> Gnea: any ideas?
[20:46] <ValentineX> godzirra:  :-s I don't understand :s
[20:46] <godzirra> ValentineX: at a c ommand prompt, type "man tar" without the quotes
[20:46]  * Myrtti slaps godzirra with around a bit with a large tar.gzipped package of /usr/share/man
[20:46] <godzirra> ValentineX: that will tell you how to create, extract, etc tars.
[20:47] <Myrtti> ValentineX: please elaborate a bit more. Are you trying to create or open a tar file?
[20:47] <Gnea> godzirra: try restarting the cups backend - sudo /etc/init.d/cupsys restart
[20:47] <SmokeEater85911> can anybody help me get my subwoofer working on my laptop?
[20:47] <ValentineX> godzirra:  yup I am a simple user I don't understand that . let me tell you I have downloaded a driver that is in .tar.gz etc what should I do with that
[20:47] <liquidbeef> i have tar in my cigarette file
[20:48] <godzirra> ValentineX: If you are trying to extract a .tar.gz, then you just need to do this:  "tar -zxvf whatever.tar.gz"
[20:48] <test34> Can anyone add packages to the Universe/Multiverse repositories?
[20:48] <godzirra> without the quotes.
[20:48] <Myrtti> ValentineX: which driver?
[20:48] <godzirra> Gnea: I did.  I still get the add printer configuration window.  At the top the butons are "New printer, New Class, Copy, Delete, Goto Server, Refresh" and all of them are greyed out except "Goto Server" and "Refresh"
[20:49] <Goldendiamond> ciaooooooo
[20:49] <ValentineX> godzirra: tar -zxvf filename.tar.gz      ok and the file should be placed where when I am ready to type those commands?
[20:49] <godzirra> Gnea: Still get the WEIRD printer configuration window I mean.
[20:49] <Goldendiamond> c'è qualche italianooo
[20:49] <Goldendiamond> ???
[20:49] <godzirra> ValentineX: Yes.  If its in a folder, the whole folder will be in the directory you type thos commands.
[20:49] <ValentineX> Myrtti:  ltmodem for ager modems
[20:49] <Ahadiel> !it | Goldendiamond
[20:49] <godzirra> ValentineX: So be careful, because if its 200 files not in a directory, they will throw them all in your current directory, which may not be what you want :)
[20:50] <Slade> when using the desktop cube to switch between workspaces, how do you get the cube to be smaller?
[20:50] <ValentineX> godzirra: what is directory? under home?
[20:50] <RequinB4> Slade - as in less desktops?
[20:50] <mralexandro> when i try to open my external hardrive it says unable to mount. any ideas?
[20:50] <Slade> no, the actual cube size
[20:50] <RequinB4> Slade - fewer* or just zoomed out
[20:50] <Slade> yeh zoomed out
[20:50] <godzirra> ValentineX: The "folders" you're talking about are directories.
[20:50] <godzirra> A directory is any folder that can contain files.  More or less.
[20:50] <lint_> hello channel. can someone help me with replacing my login screen theme?
[20:51] <godzirra> Gnea: It looks like when I do system->administration->printer its running "python /usr/share/system-config-printer/system-config-printer.py"
[20:51] <ValentineX> godzirra: hmm thanks I will test that.
[20:51] <RequinB4> Slade: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/compiz/2007-May/002152.html
[20:51] <godzirra> ValentineX: No problem.  If you have trouble try and be very clear what you're trying to do.  Like if oyu're trying to use tar to extract a file, let us know that :)
[20:52] <ValentineX> And help me about setting up phone for gprs with ubuntu, I check many sites I do that but they are not working for me or maybe I don't understand coz I am new at linux and its commands

[20:54] <ERICHMOBILE> can i repair a windows install with a live cd, fixmbr and such?
[20:54] <linuxfce> In order to install a kernel module do I have to compile the kernel?
[20:54] <Mecha25> smokeEater: yes... but it needs a newer kernel I think
[20:55] <ay^> ERICHMOBILE: well.. no, you can do that with a windows cd
[20:55] <linuxfce> erichmbile no, there is no fixmbr or fixboot
[20:55] <SmokeEater85911> how do I go about updating the kernel then?
[20:55] <Mecha25> linuxfce: no, you can install synaptic
[20:55] <SmokeEater85911> im trying to get my subwoofer to work
[20:55] <Denise> lol
[20:55] <linuxfce> mecha25 a kernel module which is not present in apt
[20:55] <Mecha25> SmokeEater85911: I have no idea how to do it, I just know somebody who did.  It means using a beta kernel
[20:55] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, no icant, not anymore. i get to system is detecting hardware and then black screen
[20:55] <Mecha25> Linuxfcs: then probably yeah you'd have to compile it
[20:55] <Denise> u tried smoker to install joelouis cakes?

[20:56] <chao1> hello everyone. I was wondering if anyone here knows of a program that a teacher can use to produce a thin client environment for Windows, Ubuntu, etc. I had the link and miss placed it. It is an open source program. It allows the teacher to let the students to see her desktop, lets her/him see the students desktop, and send text messages, etc.
[20:56] <tamer_> is it true that Xandros will depend on ubuntu ?
[20:56] <ay^> ERICHMOBILE: tried with winxp cd?
[20:56] <addernator> hey there dudes, how do i get the developers packages for ubuntu so i can compile source code
[20:56] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, yes
[20:56] <SmokeEater85911> Mecha25: yould you happen to know how to get my sub working?
[20:56] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, i have remnants of grub on here
[20:57] <ay^> ERICHMOBILE: you could install say debian and it might detect the windows and create a loader for the windows
[20:57] <Mecha25> SmokeEater85911: it's not your sub that's having a problem (unless you have bad wiring) but your sound card
[20:57] <carlos_> k pex
[20:57] <chao1> I was reading a wordpress article someone had wrote that was brazialian i think. His teacher used it. I would like to suggest it here
[20:57] <unop> addernator,  sudo apt-get build-dep packagename # installs all the libraries needed to build packagename
[20:57] <SmokeEater85911> Mecha25:so.. do I just need to go find drivers?
[20:57] <Slade> RequinB4: thanks :)
[20:57] <Mecha25> SmokeEater85911: sorta
[20:57] <unop> addernator,  there are also the -dev packages available in the repos.
[20:57] <johntramp> hey can I reboot from ubuntu as a user with out root/sudo access?
[20:57] <johntramp> with the commandline
[20:57] <ay^> johntramp:  no
[20:57] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, is there any other way?
[20:57] <mouz> johntramp: no
[20:58] <Mecha25> smokeEater: drivers are built into the kernel in linux
[20:58] <unop> johntramp, not possible
[20:58] <johntramp> ok
[20:58] <sk33t0r> hey all.. Im trying to install ieee80211 but everytime I run sudo make it tells me there are old instances of ieee80211 still installed.. I've deleted every conceivable file I could find with ieee80211 but I still get the same error messaqe
[20:58] <lint> can someone help me? i am trying to install some gdm themes i downloaded from gnomeloook.org

[20:58] <addernator> what are the packages called?\
[20:58] <sk33t0r> any help would be greatly appreciated
[20:58] <ay^> ERICHMOBILE: well, I only know about using the rescue thing on a winxp cd, or creating a loader in grub
[20:58] <SmokeEater85911> is it just running on default drivers and not my actual card?
[20:58] <Mecha25> SmokeEater, you have a 5.1 setup?
[20:58] <SmokeEater85911> no its all built into my laptop
[20:58] <ValentineX> what is gnome and KDE ? which is better
[20:59] <unop> addernator, it depends .. there are possibly thousands of them
[20:59] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, ok, if i install ubuntu and put grub as bootloader show xp then boot?
[20:59] <mouz> ValentineX: depends whom you ask

[20:59] <Mecha25> SmokeEater: that's 5.1
[20:59] <SmokeEater85911> 2 in top left, 2 in top right and the bottom
[20:59] <ay^> ERICHMOBILE: it might detect it automagically and create a section for it in grub, or you could alternatively do it yourself after the installation is finished
[20:59] <mouz> ValentineX: people have their preferences based on looks, packages available and what they are used to.
[21:00] <SmokeEater85911> 4.1 i only have 5 speakers lol
[21:00] <Offline> the visual effects doesn't work with me on ubuntu gutsy, a message appears "the composite extension is not available"

[21:00] <needhelp> Hi, anyone familar with kino video capturing ?

[21:00] <SmokeEater85911> look my laptop up Toshiba satellite x205
[21:00] <godzirra> Mecha25: the ones with "premium" speakers come with a "subwoofer"
[21:00] <godzirra> though its not anything huge, to be honest.
[21:00] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, ok i will try that. i just need some stuff of it and was going to format.
[21:00] <RequinB4> lint: install startupmanager
[21:00] <ValentineX> mouz:  which is getting popular and how to setup/download?
[21:00] <chao1> unop: hey have you heard of a program that allows teachers perform a thin client like environment in a non thin client setting? I can't seem to remember what it was called but I had read about it and can't find the link to it. Its for both Ubuntu and XP.
[21:00] <unop> addernator, read the README or INSTALL file in the tar.gz .. and establish what prerequisite libraries/headers are needed .. then search for the corresponding -dev packages in synaptic
[21:01] <Mecha25> still
[21:01] <SmokeEater85911> yeah its not thumpin or anything but it sounds a lot better
[21:01] <tamer_> anyone know where to get newest gyashi client deb
[21:01] <Loverboy^> ValentineX: ubuntu ships with GNOME by default
[21:01] <SmokeEater85911> so how do I get it to work?
[21:01] <ay^> ERICHMOBILE: w00t you only need some files from windows? you can access it in linux!
[21:01] <unop> chao1, hmm, vnc ?
[21:01] <Mecha25> SmokeEater, I think I know your problem.  Double click on your volume icon in the upper right corner
[21:01] <Loverboy^> Kubuntu is the KDE version of it
[21:01] <Loverboy^> try them both, see which one you like more.
[21:01] <Mecha25> SmokeEater: if you're getting sound at all, your card is working
[21:01] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, yeah, this gives me achance to check out ubuntustudio too!
[21:01] <Loverboy^> I suggest Ubuntu
[21:01] <SmokeEater85911> Mecha25: I get sound, but not through the sub
[21:01] <sk33t0r> chao1, that didn't help I still cant make :-/
[21:01] <ay^> you _should_ be able to mount the windows partition from livecd
[21:01] <godzirra> what is ubuntustudio?
[21:01] <godzirra> Gnea: any ideas?
[21:01] <Mecha25> SmokeEater: double click on that volume icon, it should give you some sliders
[21:01] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, oh realy?
[21:02] <Loverboy^> godzirra: aptitude show ubuntustudio
[21:02] <SmokeEater85911> k
[21:02] <sk33t0r> I dont understand where these files could be.. it tells me that there are still a few files located such as /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.24-19/include/net/ieee80211softmac.h
[21:02] <Mecha25> SmokeEater, try messing with them, make sure you have sound playing, you CAN blow your speakers if you turn them too loud!
[21:02] <godzirra> Loverboy^: unable to locate package ubuntustudio
[21:02] <sk33t0r> but when I try to rm them, it says they dont exist
[21:02] <Loverboy^> bad luck then
[21:02] <Loverboy^> google it
[21:02] <Av1> hey is there any site from where i can learn command line for ubuntu/linux
[21:02] <SmokeEater85911> i know.. listen..
[21:02] <SmokeEater85911> the speakers on the top play music
[21:02] <marco_> I just installed ccsm and selected desktop cube but it just wont work
[21:02] <SmokeEater85911> the sub doesnt
[21:02] <mouz> ValentineX: if you installed the default Ubuntu you are using gnome. If you use the Kubuntu CD then KDE is the default. In both cases you can install the other by installing a package (ubuntu-desktop or kubuntu-desktop)
[21:02] <sk33t0r> Av1, multiple sites
[21:02] <SmokeEater85911> thats what Im trying to say
[21:02] <chao1> unop: its a gui program. it allows the teacher to control what the students see, it allows them to im the students via the software, and it allows the teacher to monitor what the students are doing and allow them to only do certain things
[21:02] <Mecha25> SmokeEater: I know, I think the sub has the volume too low
[21:02] <sk33t0r> check out ubuntuforums.com
[21:03] <Mecha25> SmokeEater: hit Preferences, in the Edit menu in that window with the sliders
[21:03] <Av1> sk3t0r can you please tell me
[21:03] <unop> chao1, not sure .. but you could try the edubuntu channel .. perhaps they know
[21:03] <Mecha25> SmokeEater, then check ALL the checkboxes
[21:03] <Loverboy^> marco_: check your drivers and Xorg.conf
[21:03] <SmokeEater85911> Mecha25: it only lists Master, Headphoens, MCM, Front, Front Mic boost, and Mic boost
[21:03] <chao1> ok. thanks
[21:03] <Mecha25> SmokeEater, then go back to the slider window, there should be new ones
[21:03] <godzirra> neat
[21:03] <tamer_> anyone knows if it important to get the frimware of wireless card to frimwares
[21:03] <sk33t0r> I don't understand how there could still be ieee80211 files installed.. I deleted them all but I still get the same error message
[21:03] <SmokeEater85911> there is no edit menu
[21:03] <Mecha25> SmokeEater: what?
[21:04] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, booting into xbuntu live cd as i type this..
[21:04] <Mecha25> SmokeEater: top of the window, Edit Preferences isn't there?
[21:04] <sk33t0r> has anyone succcesfully reinstalled ieee80211 on hardy?
[21:04] <Loverboy^> anyone skilled with java at all that knows why i can't exec gnome-terminal -e properly ?
[21:04] <marco_> Loverboy^, compizfusion is working. But that particular effect (and others) just wont work.

[21:04] <Mecha25> SmokeEater: oh! you're on KDE?
[21:05] <SmokeEater85911> yeah
[21:05] <SmokeEater85911> sorry
[21:05] <SmokeEater85911> nobody in #kubuntu would answer me
[21:05] <Mecha25> SmokeEater: that'll do it.  I have know clue about KDE's sound volume setup, try messing around
[21:05] <Av1> i wanna learn command line for linux/ubuntu
[21:05] <mouz> Av1: search for tutorials about bash
[21:05] <SmokeEater85911> (i forgot I was in the ubuntu room haha)

[21:05] <john__> help how to system restore
[21:05] <Mecha25> Av1: LinuxCommand.org I think
[21:05] <Loverboy^> ValentineX: then just use Ubuntu and forget about KDE/Kubuntu
[21:06] <Mecha25> KDE is in the middle of a version switch, I'll try it again when it's stable again

[21:07] <Mecha25> SmokeEater: ok, then that's not it
[21:07] <mralexandro> wine worked fine!
[21:07] <sk33t0r> I dont understand where these files could be.. it tells me that there are still a few files located such as /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.24-19/include/net/ieee80211softmac.h
[21:07] <mralexandro> or atleas ok
[21:07] <Mecha25> mralexandro: Congrats!
[21:07] <sk33t0r> but when I try to rm them, it says they dont exist
[21:07] <mralexandro> least
[21:07] <mouz> ValentineX: you're welcome. Glad you'll stick to gnome ;)
[21:07] <Mecha25> sk33tor: did you try uninstalling the headers though Synaptic?
[21:07] <john__> help please with system restore to went 1st install
[21:07] <mralexandro> the cube thing still worked so i cold just rotate over here while i am playing:)
[21:07] <SmokeEater85911> it ONLY lists Master, Headphones, PCM, Front, Frontmic, MicBoost
[21:08] <Mecha25> SmokeEater: try the Configure Kvolumewhateverthing
[21:08] <Mecha25> SmokeEater, you might be able to enable more sliders
[21:08] <chao1> unop: someone actually knew what I was talking about. It was called iTALC - http://sourceforge.net/project/screenshots.php?group_id=132465
[21:08] <sk33t0r> no should I uninstall them? wont that mess up my whole installation?
[21:09] <unop> chao1, cool :)
[21:09] <ValentineX> mouz:  why you are glad also help me about dialup modem or gprs phone set up so I can set my ubuntu for net ;)
[21:09] <SmokeEater85911> Mecha25: nope doesnt have anything of the sort
[21:09] <Loverboy^> ANYONE having experience with java/gnome-terminal at all ?
[21:09] <chao1> unop: thanks. I dont know why I didn't think to go there first. ;-)
[21:09] <Mecha25> SmokeEater85911: odd
[21:09] <Loverboy^> i can't exec() the bastard from my Swing app
[21:09] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, you still here?
[21:09] <unop> chao1, happens .. :)
[21:09] <Mecha25> LoverBoy, I know Java, but I'm not sure how to help
[21:10] <unop> Loverboy^, mind the language please.
[21:10] <ay^> ERICHMOBILE: yep
[21:10] <Mecha25> Loverboy: You made sure you have both the JDK and JRE
[21:10] <SmokeEater85911> Mecha25: thats why Im thinking it would be a driver issue
[21:10] <Loverboy^> i'm in eclipse, i have a production environment
[21:10] <Mecha25> SmokeEater85911: the drivers either work or they don't.  Brand new laptop?
[21:10] <Loverboy^> i'm doing Runtime.getRuntime().exec("gnome-terminal -e 'ssh user@host'")
[21:10] <Loverboy^> the window blinks for a second and that's all
[21:10] <Loverboy^> xterm works fine
[21:10] <SmokeEater85911> Mecha25: Eh maybe 6 months old
[21:11] <mouz> ValentineX: because I like gnome more :)  Sorry cannot help you with modem/gprs. Maybe ubuntuforums.org has pointers about those.
[21:11] <Mecha25> loverboy: did you install the Free JDK and JRE, or the real Sun Java ones?
[21:11] <Loverboy^> the real java stuff
[21:11] <Loverboy^> java version "1.6.0_06"
[21:11] <Loverboy^> Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_06-b02)
[21:11] <Loverboy^> Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 10.0-b22, mixed mode)
[21:11] <SmokeEater85911> BRB one sec..
[21:11] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, in gparted i get an error: NTFS consistent. Run chkdsk /f on Windows then reboot it TWICE!
[21:11] <ERICHMOBILE> *inconsistent
[21:11] <ay^> d'oh
[21:11] <Mecha25> SmokeEater: usually they have that by then... not sure how to help you, it seems the driver just doesn't know you have a subwoofer?
[21:12] <ValentineX> mouz:  wait I will read that forum, I already read those all things but I don't understand them I am going to read now and will ask you about little questions in them
[21:12] <sk33t0r> this is the error message I get if someone wouldnt mind taking a look at it: http://pastebin.com/m306707c1
[21:12] <ay^> ERICHMOBILE: thats no good, but you might be able to force mounting it
[21:12] <SmokeEater85911> Mecha25: BRB
[21:12] <sk33t0r> maybe someone with more experience has had a similar problem
[21:12] <Mecha25> Loverboy: sorry, I use eclipse too, just straight up worked for me
[21:12] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, is my drive totally screwed?
[21:12] <ay^> well, it needs windows to fix it I think
[21:12] <Mecha25> LoverBoy: only problem I had was I got the IcedTea version of Java, not the real one, once I fixed that it worked dandy
[21:12] <Loverboy^> Mecha25: well, everything works..it's something related to gnome-terminal i think
[21:12] <johnfn> Hi, my ubuntu partition is at the end of the list of partitions on gparted. I've been trying to extend it, but I'm not quite sure how to do that since there's no way to move partitions around in gparted and i can't extend it from the last partition. should I just move everything to a different partition and then extend? or what?
[21:13] <Mecha25> ERICHMOBILE: you can fix it with gparted, I htink
[21:13] <Loverboy^> i can't exec() it properly
[21:13] <Mecha25> Loverboy: I don't know squat about gnome-terminal
[21:13] <ERICHMOBILE> Mecha25, how?
[21:13] <Mecha25> ERICHMOBILE: install ntfsprogs and ntfsutils from synaptic, then try again, those do quite a lot I've found
[21:13] <SmokeEater85911> BACK
[21:13] <chuy_max> sk33t0r, did you try what the output told you?
[21:13] <ERICHMOBILE> Mecha25, im on live cd
[21:13] <sk33t0r> yes and I still get the same error
[21:14] <onthefence928> how do i make Gdesklets start automatically on start-up
[21:14] <Mecha25> ERICHBMOBILE: nevermind then, sorry...
[21:14] <petur> hey, im using Ubuntu and i'm tryin to get vmware with vista on a seperate workspace, how do i do it? like this: http://www.daniel15.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2006/09/vmware-2.jpg
[21:14] <sk33t0r> I ran the remove-old script that comes with the install
[21:14] <SmokeEater85911> Mecha25: so you think it could be the driver not knowing it has a Sub to use?
[21:14] <sk33t0r> but it still says there are instances of ieee80211 found
[21:14] <Mecha25> onthefence928: you add an entry in your Sessions window, under System, Preferences
[21:14] <Mecha25> SmokeEater: I'd say probably
[21:14] <Mecha25> SmokeEater: the devs were probably like me and thought there'd never BE a subwoofer in a laptop
[21:14] <andax> onthefence928: system / preferences / sessions, click 'add'.
[21:14] <sk33t0r> I tried to manually delete all the ieee80211 files as well.. some of them come up when I "locate ieee80211" but when I try to rm them it says they don't exist?
[21:15] <Mecha25> sk33tor: you're rm ing them as root, right?
[21:15] <onthefence928> andax: now what do i type?
[21:15] <SmokeEater85911> Mecha25: Ill go bug people in the kubu room
[21:15] <sk33t0r> yes
[21:15] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, i have two disks. what if i boot to and install xp to the other disk and then once in that run chkdsk on it. would that work?
[21:15] <Mecha25> SmokeEater: good luck
[21:15] <SmokeEater85911> thanks
[21:15] <andax> onthefence928, type 'gdesklets &' maybe.
[21:15] <Mecha25> OnTheFence: do "gdesklets" in the command box, no &
[21:16] <onthefence928> thanks
[21:16] <Mecha25> OnTheFEnce: name it and comment it whatever you want, what matters is that gdesklets is in that command text box
[21:16] <Mecha25> onthefence: no problem
[21:16] <john__> thanks
[21:16] <chuy_max> sk33t0r, locate searches in a database file, so if you remove files, you will have to updatedb again to remove those files from the database
[21:16] <ay^> ERICHMOBILE: well.. you only need to boot the windows xp disk to fix your current mbr
[21:16] <ay^> ERICHMOBILE: you dont need to install the cd, just boot it
[21:16] <sk33t0r> for instane
[21:17] <sk33t0r> rm: cannot remove `/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.24-19-generic/include/config/ieee80211.h': No such file or directory
[21:17] <chuy_max> sk33t0r, it doesn't exist then
[21:17] <sk33t0r> do I just sudo updatedb?
[21:17] <Mecha25> sk33tor: yes! always
[21:17] <Carroarmato0> I need to forward connections from ppp0 to my eth0 interface, could anyone give me a iptables command?
[21:17] <chuy_max> sk33t0r, yes, or you can use find
[21:17]  * Mecha25 doesn't like find
[21:17] <sk33t0r> so why am I still getting that error message still when I try to run sudo make?
[21:18] <chuy_max> sk33t0r, locate searches in a database to find files quickly, find searches current files in your hard disk
[21:18] <sk33t0r> http://pastebin.com/m306707c1

[21:19] <Trader_T> Hi, can someone help? ﻿I've downloaded Opera for ubuntu onto desktop - now I don't have a clue what commands I need to use to execute the installation (tar.gz file)
[21:19] <unop> sk33t0r, try using a directory that does not have spaces in it.
[21:19] <Trader_T> sorry, used to using xp - just double click it and it installs
[21:19] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, ok, set other disk as the one to boot to after cd and got into xp setup...
[21:19] <sk33t0r> let me try that
[21:19] <unop> sk33t0r, it does not seem to like.  ~/tools/wepcrack/ipw2200 stuff
[21:19] <Mecha25> Trader_T: enable the Ubuntu Partners software source (in Software Sources) and you can install it through Add/REmove programs
[21:20] <Mecha25> sk33tor: no, you can't use both, that's the thing
[21:20] <sk33t0r> Mecha25, what do you mean
[21:20] <acrousey> i just mounted a new 750GB hard drive onto my computer. The old hard drive is 40 gigs, but it is partitioned. Is there a way that I can reformat the old hard drive so that I could use all 40 gigs of it? I would like to keep the settings and stuff that I have, but all of that is on the old one. Would that be a problem?
[21:20] <sk33t0r> both what?
[21:20] <Mecha25> sk33tor: NDISWrapper is a compatability layer that lets wireless drives with windows drivers work in linux
[21:20] <unop> sk33t0r,  also.  run  export SHELL  before trying make
[21:20] <kostassite> anyone use qtphone
[21:20] <Mecha25> NDISWrapper cannot do WEPCracking
[21:21] <Trader_T> ﻿Mecha25: where is software sources located in KDE?

[21:25] <floppyears> any ideas ?
[21:25] <andax> okeefferd: highpoint controllers work fine for me with both the hptmv ( not opensource ) and the sata_mv ( opensource ) modules as well. that would be a safe bet.
[21:25] <laeg> can i get some help installing RealPlayer11GOLD.bin please? the first instructions in the directions is 'install realplayer'
[21:25] <Mecha25> Habernet: hit Customize in the appearance pannel

[21:25] <lwizardl> anyone get vidalia to install on 8.04?
[21:25] <d[o_o]b> yes
[21:25] <Habernet> mecha25 thanks
[21:26] <andax> okeefferd, what do you mean by horrible?
[21:26] <okeefferd> the way itr starts the channels is not compatible with my drives it seems.  i have to boot into the os with the drives powered down, then bring them up
[21:26] <okeefferd> then it works
[21:26] <okeefferd> lol
[21:26] <magentar> laeg, normally just set the permission of the file to executable in properties and run it as root
[21:26] <kostassite> need help with qt compiling

[21:26] <laeg> magentar: can i run it from anywhere?
[21:26] <okeefferd> that and the sata_mv module doesnt seem to work well with this specific card
[21:26] <acrousey> kostassite: list your problem and maybe someone will help
[21:27] <magentar> laeg,  sure i think it has a graphical installation program
[21:27] <kostassite> i need to compile qtphone
[21:27] <laeg> magentar: ty
[21:27] <kostassite> but when i run make
[21:27] <kostassite> have error
[21:27] <uoaphys> can someone help me fix a printer problem, I think its permissions, its really lame
[21:27] <thoreauputic_> laeg: from the directory it is in, try running  sudo ./RealPlayer11GOLD.bin
[21:27] <thoreauputic_> laeg: after making it executable
[21:28] <andax> okeefferd, during system bootup enter the cards bios menu, set up all drives as 'jbod' , and check 'staggered(?) spinup' setting.
[21:28] <lwizardl> has anyone get vidalia to install on 8.04? becuase on compile i keep getting a install bssl error but apt-get can't find that to install
[21:28] <ay^> ERICHMOBILE: okay you should be able to choose "recovery console" from there
[21:28] <DaveKong> there some way to take mounted volumes off your desktop without unmounting them?
[21:28] <laeg> thoreauputic_: ty - it's asking me where exactly i want it installed
[21:29] <Slart> DaveKong: you can remove them all from the desktop
[21:29] <okeefferd> tried that, maybe i will give it another go, but my main issue is that the drives are recognized sparatically in the BIOS of the card
[21:29] <thoreauputic_> laeg: accept the defaults
[21:29] <Slart> DaveKong: not sure if you can remove some of them.. afaik it's all or nothing
[21:29] <laeg> thoreauputic_: there is no default
[21:29] <tamer_> i failed to use partimage to backup my system
[21:29] <acrousey> ﻿i just mounted a new 750GB hard drive onto my computer. The old hard drive is 40 gigs, but it is partitioned. Is there a way that I can reformat the old hard drive so that I could use all 40 gigs of it? I would like to keep the settings and stuff that I have, but all of that is on the old one. Would that be a problem?
[21:29] <tamer_> can i use anything else
[21:29] <thoreauputic_> laeg: yes there is :)
[21:29] <laeg> thoreauputic_: hold the phone
[21:29] <okeefferd> but when i try the same drives with another machine using a different (built in) sata they work wonderfully
[21:29] <laeg> lol :P
[21:29] <DaveKong> Slart ok how do I remove them all?
[21:29] <unop> DaveKong, http://ubuntu-tutorials.com/2008/06/19/adding-custom-icons-and-disabling-desktop-icons-in-gnome/
[21:29] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, no can do, freezes at startting windows
[21:30] <Slart> DaveKong: run gconf-editor in a terminal.. check in Apps, Nautilus, Desktop or something like that
[21:30] <DaveKong> ok thanks unop and slart
[21:30] <mr-onionhead> Hi, I've gotta somewhat silly question.  I'm compiling some software from source, and am not sure where the best place to put it is.  Ordinarily I'd assume /usr/local, but it looks like apt has already added some (python related) stuff there.  Do ubuntu users prefer /opt?  Somewhere else?
[21:30] <Slart> DaveKong: there's settings for showing the trash can, showing drives, this computer and so on
[21:30] <tamer_> can anyone tell me anything to backup my system
[21:30] <Slart> !backup | taner
[21:30] <Slart> ahem.. tamer
[21:30] <ay^> ERICHMOBILE: hmm okay, that just aint right
[21:31] <tamer_> yes
[21:31] <tuxice> mr-onionhead: it is a python program?
[21:31] <andax> okeefferd, it is normal that the cards are recognized separately. You have two options here, A) create the raid array in the bios of the card B) download the raid management console from highpoint-tech.com and configure the card from the running system.
[21:31] <unop> mr-onionhead, is this something that you will be distributing?
[21:31] <Slart> tamer: the above line was for you..
[21:31] <ay^> ERICHMOBILE: I'd say something is seriously wrong with you system, other than harddrive, but I'm no pro
[21:31] <godzirra> I'm trying to add my wireless printer on a laptop and I used the cups page (localhost:631) to add it on two laptops.  On one running intrepid it works.  On the other running hardy it does not.  On the one running Hardy, I can print a test page from the CUPS setup pages, but I don't show a printer in Firefox when I try and print, and when I go to system->administration->printing, its running "python /usr/share/system-config-printer/
[21:31] <johnfn> Is there an easy way to transfer my ubuntu setup from one partition to another?
[21:31] <Slart> !clone | johnfn
[21:31] <laeg> thoreauputic_: i have it installed and i restarted firefox - the stream i'm trying to open is the one entitled 'spanair plane crash' in the top middle of the page - http://www.rte.ie/news/6news/
[21:31] <mr-onionhead> unop: I'm not distributing it.  I'd just like to do the "right thing."
[21:32] <Habernet> i have a dual boot set up on my laptop with windows xp and 8.04, the partition is about half and half but i have files on both partitions that are the same (music, videos, pics etc) is there any way to resize the partition to have more for ubuntu and less for windows?
[21:32] <unop> mr-onionhead, 3rd party applications go under /opt  .. but that's preferrential
[21:32] <Slart> johnfn: but if you just want to move everything I guess just copying it all might do the trick
[21:32] <MentalBoy> hi all. please answer how I can cumsomize download queue in Rtorrent?
[21:32] <tuxice> mr-onionhead: normally source can be compiled and run from the ~ directory
[21:32] <mr-onionhead> tuxice: It's not a python program.  It's a new build of Coq (coq.infria.fr).
[21:32] <andax> okeefferd: default ( unconfigured) : no hdd's will be detected by linux. / jbod: all disks are detected separately ( use mdadm for softraid ) / raid config: raid arrays appear as one large disk to the kernel.
[21:32] <okeefferd> andax: sorry, i mean the problem lies with the drives being recognized by the hpt card.  its very sparatic which ones show up in the bios and which ones dont.  then when i get into the os, the same thing happens
[21:32] <johnfn> Slart: I thought about that, but I was worried - is there anything like the registry in Windows that will screw me over?
[21:33] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, it has to be mbr
[21:33] <robelliott2125> linxeh You still about?
[21:33] <mr-onionhead> unop: It sounds like /opt it is.  Thank you:)
[21:33] <ay^> ERICHMOBILE: but the winxp cd should still boot, if it was just that
[21:33] <Slart> johnfn: not that I know of.. don't copy /proc though.. since it's .. well.. created at boot..
[21:33] <Slart> johnfn: not sure about /sys either
[21:33] <pretorian> hi Leutz
[21:33] <ay^> I have had fuxx0red mbrs a lot of times, and fixed them using xp/vista cds
[21:34] <mr-onionhead> tuxrice:  Thanks!  I'd prefer to keep it out of my home directory.  So I think I'll follow unop and with /opt
[21:34] <johnfn> Slart: Okay, I'll give it a try.
[21:34] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, i was trying to use symantec imaging tool and when i booted into dos it said there were some errors that it could fix, i let it and this started
[21:34] <andax> okeefferd, sorry i misunderstood you most likely. This sounds like you need a bigger power supply. ( I use 750W for a 1+8 disk setup )
[21:34] <Trader_T> ﻿Mecha25: hi again - can't find the program  in add/remove programms - is there a way I could execute the download in terminal?
[21:34] <thoreauputic_> laeg: using some braindead imbedded thing - doesn't play here either
[21:34] <egosintrick> mr. onionhead usr/local is usually the preferred place for programs you install yourself, as it is usually placed on a separate partition from /home and /usr, but it really just comes down to personal preference
[21:34] <Mecha25> Trader_T: I know it's in synaptic, not sure where that is in KDE
[21:34] <ValentineX> Hi ubuntu will detect and install my modem like windows did?
[21:35] <egosintrick> i think there may be issues if the program can't find the libs, ie if it was looking in /usr or whatever
[21:35] <DIFH-iceroot> ValentineX: depends on the modem
[21:35] <egosintrick> meh
[21:35] <ay^> ERICHMOBILE: thats wierd..
[21:35] <ValentineX> how to check if the modem dialup has been installed working or not
[21:35] <okeefferd> andax: forgot to mention that the drives are all connected via esata so they are external.  The box is a 1u IBM server with dual xeon 2.6ghz
[21:35] <laeg> thoreauputic_: asking questions makes me braindead in a support channel?
[21:35] <ay^> ERICHMOBILE: what exactly is it the xpcd trying to do when it hangs?
[21:36] <Trader_T> ﻿Mecha25: ok, but considering I've downloaded and extracted the file on desktop - could I use terminal to start the installation?   I just need to know which commands to use
[21:36] <pretorian> whats up guys
[21:36] <pulse00> hi all. i'm getting this error when starting pulseaudio: Assertion 'pthread_mutex_unlock(&m->mutex) == 0' failed at pulsecore/mutex-posix.c:98, function pa_mutex_unlock(). Aborting. found a bug report saying it has to do with libltdl 1.5.22 and one needs to update, but i have libldtl 1.5.26 installed. anyone ?
[21:36] <matt1728> is there FICS channel for IRC?
[21:36] <thoreauputic_> laeg: no no - I meant the site' player thing :)
[21:36] <laeg> thoreauputic_: oh right the site, yeah i'd rather it worked out of the box :)
[21:36] <ValentineX> DIFH-iceroot: my modem was auto install able at windows agere win modem will it be installed auto at ubuntu too?
[21:36] <thoreauputic_> laeg: no you
[21:36] <okeefferd> andax: i was concerned that it was a function of the drives that was holding them back, but when I hooked them all to a completely different machine with an onboard sata card, they worked perfectly
[21:36] <pretorian> anyone here can tell my a good shell programming tut
[21:36] <laeg> thoreauputic_: somebody said to install realplayer plugin
[21:36] <thoreauputic_> laeg: umm I meant "not you"
[21:36] <DIFH-iceroot> ValentineX: i know your modem???
[21:37] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, first time i rebooted the win xp loading screen would just sit there. then i thought to fixmbr and it would get to inspecting hardware, go black and then sit there.
[21:37] <laeg> thoreauputic_: ya sorry, my bad, i realised it after i said it and before you did :)
[21:37] <ValentineX> DIFH-iceroot: how to check its installed or not?
[21:37] <hubar> what package is the kernel source in 8,04?
[21:37] <Mecha25> trader_T: ok, we can try that
[21:37] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, this last time it loaded and got to starting windows setup, but when it goes to start windows to install it hangs
[21:37] <Mecha25> Trader_T: it's not the best way but it should work
[21:37] <Mecha25> oh! better idea
[21:38] <Mecha25> Trader_T: one second
[21:38] <ay^> ERICHMOBILE: but you dont want it to start installing windows, before that, there is a menu that allows you to use recovery console
[21:38] <hubar> what package is the kernel source in 8.04?
[21:38] <MentalBoy> does anybody use rtorrent?
[21:38] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, where is it?
[21:38] <egosintrick> Valntine i had to configure my dsl modem under windows, but when i installed ubuntu i didn't have to do anything- it automatically detected and configured it
[21:38] <ay^> MentalBoy: yes I do
[21:39] <emorris> hi, what is the equivalent of GDM for KDE? Thanks.
[21:39] <andax> hubar, linux-source?
[21:39] <MentalBoy> can you say how to set file priority?
[21:39] <hubar> emorris: KDM?
[21:39] <Mecha25> Trader_T: run this in terminal: sudo apt-get install opera
[21:39] <ValentineX> egosintrick: hmm ok let me check too.
[21:39] <emorris> hubar: k, thanks
[21:39] <MentalBoy> ay^:
[21:39] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, actually, it says starting windows then goes into the menu you're talking about
[21:39] <hubar> andax: thanks, let me try :)
[21:39] <ay^> ERICHMOBILE: http://www.windowsnetworking.com/articles_tutorials/wxprcons.html
[21:39] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^,  or its supposed to
[21:39] <carandraug> MentalBoy, I use rtorrent
[21:40] <onthefence928> i have a Two part question: 1)how do i get my Places menu to show the "File system" option again? 2)how do i get nautilus to give me an option to manipulate a file as root? like the sudo command, but without having to know the terminal commands for everything i want to do
[21:40] <zorrolero> MentalBoy: +
[21:40] <carandraug> onthefence928, you have to set up nautilus scripts to do that
[21:40] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, yeah i dont even get to that menu. in the lower left as its loading default drivers and whatnot, it says starting Windows and does nothing
[21:40] <ay^> MentalBoy: http://linux.die.net/man/1/rtorrent
[21:41] <thoreauputic_> onthefence928: you can do alt-F2 and run  ' gksudo nautilus'
[21:41] <carandraug> onthefence928, I meant it as answer for the the second question
[21:41] <ay^> ERICHMOBILE: thats so wierd..
[21:41] <thoreauputic_> but be careful...
[21:41] <hubar> andax: there are two with linux-source in the name though.
[21:41] <hubar> One is 19 another one is 26
[21:41] <robelliott2125> linxeh, I just want to say thank you for your help earlier with my drives.
[21:41] <hubar> err
[21:41] <andax> okeefferd, sorry i only have experience with internal drives, no idea about hpt+external drives combination sorry :( but you should know that i have contacted highpoint several times about issues on freebsd and they are very helpful. If no other option drop them a mail i suggest.
[21:41] <ay^> ERICHMOBILE: sounds like installing windows on that other disk might be your best shot
[21:41] <onthefence928> carandraug: What script? and how do i run it?
[21:41] <hubar> I meant one is 21 another one is 36
[21:41] <thoreauputic_> carandraug: see my answer re: nautilus as root
[21:41] <ay^> unless you want to try to force mounting it in ubuntu
[21:41] <rlc> that's a secret
[21:41] <hubar> which one should I take?
[21:41] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, yeah but same thing happened
[21:42] <thoreauputic_> onthefence928: did you see my answer?
[21:42] <ERICHMOBILE> couldnt get to that menu
[21:42] <onthefence928> carandraug: i like that other GKsudo command
[21:42] <okeefferd> adnax: will do thanks
[21:42] <tamer_> i am Gyashi
[21:42] <carandraug> onthefence928, thoreauputic_ option is also a good one
[21:42] <okeefferd> andax: otherwise I am looking into buying another card
[21:42] <afallenhope> tamer_, okay?
[21:42] <giacomo_carissim> what's the name of the run program?  the one that brings up the run window in gnome?
[21:42] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, think i have an old ide drive sitting here. ill pop that in and install to copy files.
[21:42] <tamer_> download link
[21:42] <afallenhope> giacomo_carissim, hit ALT + F2
[21:43] <tamer_> of gyashi newest one
[21:43] <Trader_T> ﻿Mecha25: Thank you very much for your help - worked a treat :)
[21:43] <carandraug> MentalBoy, file priority inside a torrent or between torrents? It's different in each case
[21:43] <thoreauputic_> onthefence928: you can make a launcher with that command if you wish - butbe very careful - running the file manager as root is a great way to wreck your system :)
[21:43] <giacomo_carissim> afallenhope, i want the name of it so i can use it under fluxbox too
[21:43] <MentalBoy> inside torrent
[21:43] <onthefence928> thoreauputic_: yes i like it, i think i'll use it
[21:43] <ay^> MentalBoy: read the link I gave you
[21:43] <thoreauputic_> onthefence928: just heed the warning :)
[21:43] <afallenhope> giacomo_carissim, not sure. Fluxbox.. is decent I guess
[21:43] <andax> okeefferd: another one that worked for me was an 'areca' model. very expensive tough
[21:43] <carandraug> MentalBoy, when you are in the list of files, select the file of the torrent you want to change priority and press space
[21:44] <pen> with flash installed with ndiswrapper, is it more stable than the linux flash?
[21:44] <ay^> ERICHMOBILE: there are other ways to do the fixmbr, but I hav eno idea if it'll work
[21:44] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, first i will install linux to see if grub works, automagically, as you said
[21:44] <ay^> pen, what? flash with ndiswrapper?
[21:44] <ay^> ERICHMOBILE: yes try that
[21:45] <pen> ay^, yea
[21:45] <carandraug> MentalBoy, say something if you managed to do it as I have to go
[21:45] <MentalBoy> thanks to all
[21:45] <hubar> andax: you there?
[21:45] <lint> can someone tell me how to change my user name in ubuntu?
[21:45] <okeefferd> andax: i see alot of success with 3ware but its pretty spendy as well
[21:45] <carandraug> MentalBoy, glad you managed it. rtorrent is a nice client
[21:45] <onthefence928> thoreauputic_: i plan to be careful, it's just annoying how some things block me out when all i want to do is make a copy of the file
[21:46] <MentalBoy> )
[21:46] <thoreauputic_> onthefence928: don't use nautilus as root on any files in your home directory - they will suddenly belong to root and be inaccessible to your user
[21:46] <ay^> MentalBoy: np :)
[21:46] <andax> hubar, : just open a terminal, and type: sudo apt-get install linux-source ( enter your password when asked ). You will have the sources for your current kernel installed in /usr/src
[21:46] <ay^> pen: ndiswrapper is for wlan devices?
[21:46] <tuxice> !afsdgfg
[21:46] <tuxice> !your mother
[21:46] <Habernet> hhaha
[21:46] <hubar> andax: alright, let me try :)
[21:46] <Teisei> Lol
[21:46] <onthefence928> thoreauputic_: in case i do, how do i make them usable by me again?
[21:46] <lint> i know someonthing about your mother
[21:46] <pen> ay^, flash too I remember
[21:47] <thoreauputic_> onthefence928:  change the ownership back to your user
[21:47] <tuxice> !anything
[21:47] <godzirra> heh
[21:47] <MentalBoy> but how to set for may files thise priority for exmple i need only one file in torrent?
[21:47] <Habernet> im trying to install america's army and at some point in the installation it says that i do not have write permissions, how do i change this??
[21:47] <Arnos> !nothing
[21:47] <thoreauputic_> onthefence928: for instance make them owned by user:user (group as well)
[21:47] <onthefence928> thoreauputic_: is it gonna change the WHOLE home directory? or just whetever files i mess with?
[21:48] <ay^> pen: and by flash you mean what?
[21:48] <tuxice> !these drugs
[21:48] <thoreauputic_> onthefence928: the ones you mess with
[21:48] <newbiew> hello.. if i have 4gb of ram.. how much would you use of swap?
[21:48] <Arnos> depneds
[21:48] <ppires_> hi there. is anyone around who knows why Virtualbox in Hardy 64bit is still v1.5.6? 1.6.4 is out already
[21:48] <Arnos> *depends
[21:48] <thoreauputic_> onthefence928: but *don't* use it in your home directory
[21:48] <ppires_> anyway, v1.5.6 isn't functional as there are no modules available for the latest kernel version.
[21:48] <thoreauputic_> onthefence928: or /tmp for example
[21:48] <pen> ay^, flash? don't you know flash?? where have you been all these years? in jungle?
[21:49] <onthefence928> thoreauputic_: i should need to but i'll keep it in mind, thanks for teh warning
[21:49] <ay^> pen: well.. there are different kinds of flash:es
[21:49] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, all partitions are accounted for in gparted so that looks good
[21:49] <pen> ay^, there is only one flash i"m talking about
[21:49] <sarthor> HI. can i download gyachi.deb pakage from this website, is it safe?? http://www.mediafire.com/?nlrmdlub4tv
[21:49] <pen> ay^, you should know it's been maintained by adobe
[21:49] <andax> okeefferd: 3ware -> try before you buy. ( performance ... )
[21:49] <thoreauputic_> onthefence928: in general it's better not to use a graphical file manager as root. Learning some commands is better really
[21:49] <onthefence928> thoreauputic_: just wondeirng: does gksudo allow me to run ANY GUI as root?
[21:50] <thoreauputic_> onthefence928: yes it should
[21:50] <ay^> pen: the only flash maintained by adobe I know of, isn't installed using ndiswrapper
[21:50] <thoreauputic_> onthefence928: but don't :)
[21:50] <grendal_prime> alright...this is the sort of thing that makes me nuts.  I got a 1420 from dell. It has an install iso that is on the box.  Now. I would love to write this to a dvd to back it up but the iso is 5 gigs. the dvd writer is a single layer drive that is limited i believe two only 4.4 gig single layer dvds. Is there a way to span dvd's with a single iso?
[21:50] <onthefence928> thoreauputic_: oh that's powerful
[21:50] <ay^> ERICHMOBILE: indeed, at least its there, some where :)
[21:50] <thoreauputic_> onthefence928: running apps as root is a *bad* idea
[21:50] <onthefence928> thoreauputic_: yeah i'm just using it for future reference
[21:50] <pen> ay^, I have seen ppl on forums installed flash with ndiswrapper
[21:50] <pen> ay^, or something similar
[21:50] <ay^> pen:  show me one
[21:51] <sarthor> HI. can i download gyachi.deb pakage from this website, is it safe?? http://www.mediafire.com/?nlrmdlub4tv
[21:51] <ay^> pen: you know there is a flash plugin, and a flash player, and a flash development enviroment? which is it?
[21:51] <onthefence928> mediafire tends to be virus-free
[21:51] <ValentineX> hello hoi hi I got this file gnome-phone-manager-0.6.0.tar what to do with this to work for me?
[21:51] <newbiew> HI, If i have 4gb of ram.. how much would yo get of swap?
[21:51] <pen> ay^, course it's the plugin with browser
[21:52] <ay^> or did YOU live in a cave in the jungle in space for the last 10 years?
[21:52] <ay^> pen: that is no where close to certain
[21:52] <sarthor> onthefence928, : what that means ... can i download. my english is weaker
[21:52] <pen> ay^, player is not a big deal I already have one standalone flash player
[21:52] <ay^> pen: plugin is no big deal either so..
[21:52] <onthefence928> sarthor: it's safe for you to download go ahead
[21:52] <pen> ay^, but it is poorly made
[21:52] <sarthor> onthefence928, thank you.
[21:52] <ay^> pen: so why you want it it its poor?
[21:52] <pen> ay^, crashes all the time
[21:52] <ay^> or are you trying to make your own?
[21:53] <onthefence928> sarthor: unless the file itself is bad for your computer, but that's your own call
[21:53] <sarthor> onthefence928, OK.
[21:53] <pen> ay^, I was seeking solution to prevent crashes
[21:53] <pen> ay^, always crash
[21:53] <ay^> pen: WHAT crashes?
[21:53] <ay^> pen: there are more than ONE flash plugin for browsers..
[21:53] <pen> ay^, I really dislike adobe's attitude towards open source community
[21:53] <tsunami> just loaded up kubuntu and its getting help up at "Running local boot scripts [OK]" any ideas?
[21:54] <ay^> pen: so you are trying to make your own using ndiswrapper?
[21:54] <pen> ay^, but you know for certain there is only ONE which can operates most flash on web
[21:54] <ay^> pen: no, I know of at least two versions
[21:54] <pen> ay^, my own? what you mean?
[21:54] <pen> ay^, list it
[21:54] <ay^> pen: version 9 and version 10
[21:54] <d[o_o]b> joomla_
[21:54] <onthefence928> How do i get the Places menu to show me a "fileSystem" option
[21:54] <pen> ay^, 10 is still in beta
[21:55] <ay^> pen: so that means it doesnt work?
[21:55] <pen> ay^, and it crashes more without any support of non-ascii chars
[21:55] <thoreauputic_> pen: gnash and swfdec both can handle *some* flash
[21:55] <pen> ay^, yes
[21:55] <Sepu> bonsoir
[21:55] <ay^> pen: no
[21:55] <d[o_o]b> yo anybody in here using dual monitor notice the firefox tooltip and menu issue.
[21:55] <jpds> !fr | Sepu
[21:55] <pen> thoreauputic_, you mark the right word :)
[21:55]  * andax will never understand why ppl want useless binary stuff like flash 
[21:55] <Sepu> Oh sorry =)
[21:55] <hubar> andax: wweng@Firefly:/usr/src$ ls
[21:55] <hubar> linux-headers-2.6.24-19  linux-headers-2.6.24-19-generic  linux-source-2.6.24.tar.bz2
[21:55] <pen> ay^, no what?
[21:55] <sk33t0r> now Im a little further along I run into another issue.. insmod: error inserting 'ipw2200.ko': -1 Unknown symbol in module
[21:55] <ay^> pen: so what is it you are trying to do?
[21:55] <thoreauputic_> pen: improving - last year neither was any use at all :)
[21:55] <sk33t0r> anyone ever seen that before?
[21:55] <ValentineX>  I got this file gnome-phone-manager-0.6.0.tar what to do with this to work for me? extract? with which command?
[21:55] <ay^> 22:55  <pen> ay^, yes
[21:55] <d[o_o]b> the drop down menu only shwos up on the main screen. so if u click on the dropdown list with the window in the secondary screen you will see the dropdown appear on the primary screen
[21:55] <ay^> 22:55  <pen> ay^, yes
[21:56] <pen> ay^, I'm confused
[21:56] <hubar> andax: Should I decompress linux-source-2.6.24 myself?
[21:56] <thoreauputic_> pen: I use them on ppc Ubuntu - they handle for example youtube OK
[21:56] <ay^> I notice
[21:56] <newbiew> if i have 4gb ram.. how much swap for installation, please tell me
[21:56] <pen> thoreauputic_, but I can't wait that long. It forces me back to vista but I like ubuntu
[21:56] <pen> thoreauputic_, I visit more than just youtube
[21:56] <thoreauputic_> vista ? Ugh
[21:56] <pen> thoreauputic_, well, it came with the laptop
[21:56] <ay^> pen: what is ndiswrapper supposed to do with flashplugin?
[21:57] <thoreauputic_> pen: yes.... sad ;-)
[21:57] <pen> ay^, I once saw on the net that it can be installed with it
[21:57] <ay^> pen: I still feel the need to know
[21:57] <andax> hubar: linux-source-2.6.24.tar.bz2 is the compressed source of your current kernel... unpack or not i don't know, depends on what you want to do with it
[21:57] <ay^> pen: but it can be installed from apt, and that sounds more easy and wise
[21:57] <pen> ay^, someone tried to install flash with ndiswrapper and it seems to work
[21:57] <linuxfce> How do I obtain files from cvs?
[21:57] <pen> ay^, but different code
[21:58] <ay^> pen: please give me a link to this, I need to read it myself
[21:58] <thoreauputic_> !info cvs
[21:58] <linuxfce> I have cvs installed and have "logged in" to the cvs I wish to download from, however after logging in the program stops?
[21:58] <hubar> andax: why do I have two header directory under /usr/src?
[21:58] <ERICHMOBILE> is there a way to get timestamp in xterm?
[21:59] <pen> ay^, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=690565
[21:59] <pen> ay^, btw, if you search google there are more links
[21:59] <Mecha25> anybody know if you can get Vim style keybindings in Bash?
[21:59] <Mecha25> a'la zsh?
[22:00] <thoreauputic_> Mecha25: yes, you can
[22:00] <unop> Mecha25, set -o vi
[22:00] <linuxfce> I would like to download the source for a program via the sourceforge website. How do I do this?
[22:00] <Mecha25> wahoo!
[22:00] <unop> ERICHMOBILE, something like this?  date '+%s'
[22:00] <d[o_o]b> lol
[22:00] <ay^> pen: I did google, but someone forgot to mention 64bit..
[22:00] <robelliott2125> Just wondering if someone can quickly answer another prob of mine...  When clicking on my shutdown menu, I used to be offered various shutdown options (restart, Hibernate, shutdown, etc) but now I'm only being offered Log Out, Lock Screen, Switch User and Hibernate.  Is there anything I can do to change it back?
[22:00] <thoreauputic_> Mecha25: I personally don't know how offjhand, but "man bash" would probably tell you
[22:00] <Mecha25> got it working, thanks guys
[22:00] <thoreauputic_> Mecha25: ag unop knew :)
[22:02] <andax> hubar: look into the directories.. most of the -general dirs contents are just a symlink
[22:02] <hubar> andax: okay i see, thanks alot for your help!
[22:03] <andax> hubar: if you tell us the point why you needed the sources maybe you could get some real help :)

[22:05] <captainm> robelliott2125: did you by any change install another windowmanager?
[22:06] <speener> what the fuck
[22:06] <unop> mpalatnik, is that the only error message you get?
[22:06] <unop> !language | speener
[22:06] <ERICHMOBILE> unop, im thinking more along like xchat, for the times that anything is entered into terminal
[22:06] <speener> firefox opens completely maximized but the borders are out of the screen?
[22:06] <mpalatnik> unop: when opening alsamixer, yes
[22:06] <speener> i can't resize or move it
[22:06] <Seveas> speener, hit F11
[22:06] <artemis> hi :)
[22:06] <artemis> is anyone using compiz ?
[22:07] <Seveas> !anyone | artemis
[22:07] <hubar> andax: oh, there are some problems with my madwifi module, it disconnects me off the wireless network sometimes, I wanna find out why. :)
[22:07] <andax> Habernet: how did you start the installer? ( command line, right click, double click.. ? )
[22:07] <artemis> /usr/bin/compiz.real (video) - Warn: No 8 bit GLX pixmap format, disabling YV12 image format <= how can i repair it ?
[22:07] <speener> Seveas: still can't resize it
[22:08] <frostbyt3> How can I find my wireless card? what is the command
[22:08] <Habernet> andax the file downloaded was a .zip file so i extracted it to my desktop and double clicked the .run file
[22:08] <artemis> /usr/bin/compiz.real (video) - Warn: No 8 bit GLX pixmap format, disabling YV12 image format <= how can i repair it ?
[22:08] <Habernet> andax it says : not write permission to usr/local/games
[22:08] <bbs> why is ltmodem broken in restricted drivers
[22:09] <unop> ERICHMOBILE, you mean change the prompt?
[22:09] <mpalatnik> unop: any ideas?
[22:09] <unop> ERICHMOBILE,  PS1='[\t]\u@\h$ '
[22:09] <morbyte1> artemis: check in console if "glxinfo | grep direct" returns a clear fat YES
[22:09] <unop> mpalatnik, not really sure .. does alsamixer work as root?
[22:09] <captainm> frostbyt3: hwdetect --show-net
[22:09] <andax> hubar: if it's an atheros chipset then just replace the card :)
[22:10] <artemis> morbyte1, it says YES
[22:10] <robelliott2125> Sorry about that unop and captainm, was just replying to something there...  By Windowmanager, do you mean KDE etc?  As I did install Kubuntu, which runs alongside Ubuntu or something
[22:10] <mpalatnik> unop: no, same error
[22:10] <robelliott2125> unop, is the command just "groups" in terminal?
[22:10] <mpalatnik> me thinks the driver is missing, thanks ill look
[22:10] <frostbyt3> what is the command to determine what brand my wireless card it?
[22:10] <foo> hm, my system freezes when I try to suspend it. I have fluxbox, dell latitude c610. Could it be a video driver problem?
[22:10] <unop> robelliott2125, yes
[22:10] <bbs> why is ltmodem broken in restricted drivers
[22:10] <robelliott2125> 1 sec then unop
[22:11] <morbyte1> artemis: did you try starting compiz via compiz-fusion-icon?
[22:11] <captainm> frostbyt3: hwdetect --show-net
[22:11] <bbs> where are the devs
[22:11] <hubar> What do you guys recommend an irc client?
[22:11] <robelliott2125> unop:  robert adm dialout cdrom floppy audio dip video plugdev fuse lpadmin admin vboxusers
[22:11] <artemis> morbyte1, where shall i look for it ?
[22:11] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, it worked!
[22:11] <ay^> hubar: I like irssi
[22:11] <captainm> hubar: I use irssi, xchat is a nice graphical client
[22:11] <ay^> ERICHMOBILE: HA! linux works wonders sometimes!
[22:11] <slammed87d21> what program ca i use to make back up copies of movies?
[22:11] <robelliott2125> hubar, I'm using Konversation, and loving it.  But irssi and Xchat are supposed to be good too
[22:11] <morbyte1> artemis: uhm i guess in system tools or in accessoires
[22:11] <robelliott2125> slammed87d21, devede or k3b
[22:11] <bbs> captainm: dude --i remember you from before do you have anything to do with the kernel in ubuntu
[22:11] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, i had forgotten i installed vista a long time ago and the loader was left on. grub detected it but the xp loader is gone
[22:11] <artemis> ok :)
[22:12] <morbyte1> artemis: but maybe you need to install it first
[22:12] <captainm> bbs: nope. Just bored
[22:12] <ay^> ERICHMOBILE: hum okay, so, does it boot?
[22:12] <bbs> captainm: oh ok
[22:12] <bbs> peace
[22:12] <artemis> morbyte1, nothing like this there
[22:12] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, yes in windows now
[22:12] <ay^> cool
[22:12] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, gonna start imaging and then wiping everything
[22:12] <ay^> glad I could help
[22:12] <ERICHMOBILE> ay^, thanks man :))
[22:13] <morbyte1> artemis: install by console: sudo apt-get install fusion-icon
[22:13] <mjorin_> When I do mkdir -p path/to/dir it says in the man page the subdirs should be made using mode 0777 ... but they are made using 1755 ... any idea why that might be happening?
[22:13] <|Juan|> im having a problem with all gecko based browsers crashing with www.gameex.net
[22:14] <td-work> question: how can I tell the resolution my monitors are currently running at?  I am using the ATI driver with multiple monitors....
[22:14] <artemis> morbyte1, it did start but where are the great effects ?
[22:14] <andax> Habernet: the problem is that that you're executing the installer as a normal user. To install the game, the setup script needs to be run as 'root'. So do the following: Click applications, accessories, terminal. Type 'sudo bash'. ( enter your password ) Then type 'cd <dirname>' where the installer is located, and start it using ./whatever.run
[22:15] <Fevrin> I currently use the "Bracket Completion" plugin for Gedit; however, I always have to use the right arrow to get out of the brackets.  Does anyone know another way, so I don't have to constantly shift my hands on the keyboard?
[22:15] <robelliott2125> unop, does that help at all?
[22:15] <andax> Habernet: stuff on your desktop is located at /home/username/Desktop
[22:15] <captainm> Fevrin: use vim ;)
[22:15] <morbyte1> artemis: well - ubuntu configuration is: less is more :) so you have to configurate all the uberleet stuff yourself :)
[22:15] <Fevrin> But captainm, what if I want to use Gedit? ;P
[22:16] <artemis> morbyte1, ok, but shall i do it in terminal or using this fusion-icon?
[22:16] <Habernet> andax thanks ill try it
[22:16] <sonink> does anyone here know how to get autologin to work with mingetty in InitNG?
[22:16] <unop> robelliott2125, not really .. i thought your group membership might have something to do with it .. but that seems right, so i am not sure what the problem is
[22:17] <Bigmack83_> i dual boot with vista (partition 1) and ubuntu (partition 2). i need to shrink my ubuntu volume so i can increase the vista one. what tool is best suited to do this as windows is lame and cant?
[22:17] <unop> mjorin_, your umask is probably affecting the permissions
[22:17] <artemis> how can i save file whenever i'm editing system file (using vim)
[22:17] <artemis> it says readonly
[22:17] <frostbyt3> Big: U can do it in vista
[22:17] <sk33t0r> now Im a little further along I run into another issue.. insmod: error inserting 'ipw2200.ko': -1 Unknown symbol in module
[22:17] <sk33t0r> anyone ever seen that before?
[22:17] <unop> artemis, make sure you use sudo where you don't have permissions
[22:17] <robelliott2125> As I said to captainm, I did install kubuntu alongside ubuntu using Synaptec, but its annoying me to have to logout first, then to restart / reboot
[22:17] <Telroth> Bigmack83_, windows can. I don't know if XP's volume manager will, but partition magic 8 will let you shrink your system partition
[22:17] <artemis> in vim too ?
[22:17] <morbyte1> artemis: as you like :) i just told you how i got compiz working with least work
[22:18] <othellix> how do i resize my partition??????????????????????????
[22:18] <sk33t0r> this is my dmesg output
[22:18] <frostbyt3> like this format c:
[22:18] <sk33t0r> http://pastebin.com/m10be67a8
[22:18] <morbyte1> othellix: how do you google?
[22:18] <unop> artemis, in vim too off-course .. vim doesn't automatically give you the permissions you need
[22:18] <Bigmack83_> frostbyt3, Windows sees ubuntu as an unknown healthy partition and cant shrink it.
[22:18] <captainm> robelliott2125: what happens when you do 'killall kwin' (asuming you're in gnome).
[22:18] <artemis> thx everyone :*
[22:18] <Bigmack83_> Telroth, i dont have PM8
[22:19] <speener> is there any documentation on mysql in the ubuntu web site?
[22:19] <othellix> google ????????????
[22:19] <othellix> thx
[22:19] <robelliott2125> Hang on then captainm, will try now
[22:19] <othellix> u are the best
[22:19] <Fevrin> Bigmack83, try using gparted.
[22:19] <othellix> :(
[22:19] <xaj> i just installed ubuntu 8.04 to my computer but i am missing a lot of building environment stuff (like g++ and some header files).  i was wondering, since i am on dialup is it possible that the cd has these programs, it just didn't install them to my computer.  if so, how do i install all of the application from my ubuntu cd to my computer?
[22:19] <andax> othellix: the resizer 'program' is called 'parted' or 'gparted'. google for it
[22:19] <robelliott2125> othellix, i use gparted whcih works well, if you want to try that
[22:19] <robelliott2125> captainm:  kwin: no process killed
[22:19] <tona> i am running live ubuntu how could i mount my hard disk internal ?
[22:20] <speener> or can someone help me get mysql running?
[22:20] <robelliott2125> tona, Places > Computer and click on the drive, it'll automount for you
[22:20] <morbyte1> artemis: just take synaptic and do a search for compiz, then youll get additional compiz stuff like more plugins, a settings-manager etc... so you get fluffly-pointy-clicky stuff
[22:20] <j800r> hey, does anyone in here use skype on ubuntu?
[22:20] <Bigmack83_> Fevrin, that is part of ubuntu isnt it? sorry im still new to ubuntulol. or do i need to DL it
[22:20] <mjorin_> unop: my umask is set to 0022, sorry i don't know much about how umask works
[22:20] <Fevrin> So nobody knows about using Bracket Completion in Gedit?  I've already used Google, but I can't find anything.
[22:20] <Telroth> I need some help with SATA drives. I just built a new system (MSI P43 Neo3 mobo, core2quad, 4gb ram, 3x1Tb sata drives, dvdrw) and all of the drives are detected in the bios, but ubuntu doesn't show the device nodes for the sata drives.
[22:20] <morbyte1> othellix: i believe gparted may work well in resizing partitions but not sure atm
[22:21] <robelliott2125> Sorry Fevrin, i tend to close all brackets myself bud
[22:21] <Fevrin> Bigmack83_: no, it's on the LiveCD by default.  Just go to Synaptic and search for "gparted".
[22:21] <tona> roberlliot2125
[22:21] <sk33t0r> sudo insmod ipw2200.ko rtap_iface=1
[22:21] <sk33t0r> insmod: error inserting 'ipw2200.ko': -1 Unknown symbol in module
[22:21] <sk33t0r> anyone ever had such an issue before?
[22:21] <Fevrin> Bigmack83_: when you install Ubuntu to your hard drive, gparted won't be there until you install it from Synaptic.
[22:21] <robelliott2125> Fevrin, Livecd should have Gparted in the System > Admin section @ Bigmack83_
[22:21] <robelliott2125> Yes tona?
[22:21] <j800r> who uses skype in here?
[22:21] <robelliott2125> Not me, sorry j800r
[22:22] <GT> Oh, I use it sometimes.
[22:22] <captainm> !anyone | j800r
[22:22] <j800r> i need help with fixing audio problems with it
[22:22] <Bigmack83_> Fevrin, ok cool. thanks. once i find it just start it as normal? and is there any good partition managers for ubuntu or is gparted the thing to get
[22:22] <speener> anyone?
[22:22] <andax> sk33t0r, that module was most likely not compiled for your current kernel
[22:22] <tona> robell but i dont know which is my hard disk
[22:22] <Bigmack83_> Fevrin, ok cool thanks. i will check it out
[22:22] <robelliott2125> I've used gparted a few times Bigmack83_, infact just had to reformat some drives tonight, and its good.
[22:23] <Fevrin> Bigmack83_: gparted is one of the few GUI-based partition editors/managers, the others are all on the command line.
[22:23] <mjorin_> unop: I just set my umask to 0 and it's still causing problems
[22:23] <robelliott2125> Well tona, you'll have Filesystem which should be your live disk, then you'll have other drives in Computer, just click on them till you find the drive you need.
[22:23]  * Bigmack83_ is GUI homegrown via windows.lol
[22:23] <morbyte1> Bigmack83_:  geparted is really a good program - reminds a bit of partition magic and borrowed some of its ideas (the good ones :)
[22:23] <j800r> why do i keep getting "problem with audio playback" on skype :|
[22:24] <unop> mjorin_, set umask to 000 if you want directories to be created as 777
[22:24] <tona> could someone help me , i am trying to mount my internal hard disk , i am using live ubuntu run on my cdrom
[22:24] <GT> I'm having some trouble with compile a program for getting Pulse to work perfectly.
[22:24] <newbiew_> HI, can someone help me please. Im doing a tutorial to make my sound card works under linux. I dont understand this instruction.. how do add a Iine to....  /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base
[22:24] <mjorin_> unop: it is 000 now
[22:24] <artemis> Attempted to unregister path (path[0] = org path[1] = freedesktop) which isn't registered <= is it something wrong ?
[22:24] <bE0wU1f> j800r: do you have audio working in any other apps
[22:24] <Bigmack83_> Fevrin, ok cool. so im assuming gparted can do everything that partition magic can do then? or at least the same features for shrinking/expanding volumes?
[22:24] <mjorin_> unop: but it still creates them as 755
[22:24] <newbiew_> i mean im fallowing a tutorial instructions not doing it
[22:24] <robelliott2125> tona, do you remember what the size of the hard drive is, which your trying to mount?
[22:25] <tona> yes
[22:25] <j800r> bE0wU1f,  i have it working with all other apps
[22:25] <unop> mjorin_, how are you creating files or directories exactly?
[22:25] <j800r> just not skype :|
[22:25] <morbyte1> newbiew_: by doing in the console a: "sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base"
[22:25] <j800r> i've tried a pulseaudio fix on the forums, and it made no difference
[22:25] <mjorin_> unop: just using mkdir dir or mkdir -p path/to/dir
[22:25] <robelliott2125> Then look in Computer tona, and you'll see the sizes, just click on the one you need, it'll automount
[22:25] <newbiew_> but if i have mousepad? just mousepad instead of gedit?
[22:25] <Fevrin> Bigmack83_: it has pretty extensive features, but for some filesystems you'll have to install extra packages from Synaptic.
[22:25] <bE0wU1f> j800r: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype#Audio%20Problems
[22:25] <tona> roberlliott2125 are you there
[22:26] <morbyte1> newbiew_: i dont know mousepad - but just try it
[22:26] <robelliott2125> Yes tona, i'm still here.
[22:26] <tona> roberlliott2125 how can i mount it
[22:26] <Bigmack83_> Fevrin, awesome. yea i will be able to figure it out from here then, thanks
[22:26] <Fevrin> Bigmack83_: no problem :)
[22:26] <newbiew_> it works morbytel
[22:26] <newbiew_> thanks
[22:26] <mjorin_> unop: I think it might be because it's on a VM hgfs and not the normal fs
[22:26] <GT> This libao-pulse thing that the PulseAudio Perfect Setup page links to. I've downloaded it, unpacked it, done ./configure, but now I've tried make and it says there are no targets specified and no makefile found. I just don't really know how to compile things, I guess. Anybody have any tips/
[22:27] <robelliott2125> tona, as I have said several times, find the size of the drive you need (which you've said you can remember), double Click it, and the drive will automatically mount, allowing you to use the files on there.
[22:27] <unop> mjorin_, that could quite possibly be it
[22:27] <morbyte1> !sudo | newbiew_
[22:27] <unop> mjorin_, check this out on a normal fs
[22:28] <SeveredCross> Can anyone suggest why Xorg would be using crazy amounts of CPU?
[22:28] <SeveredCross> Things running: Deluge for bittorrent, Firefox, Evolution, a gnome-terminal width dvtm inside it.
[22:28] <unop> mjorin_, umask 000  works as expected here.  http://pastebin.com/d2e7d8d98
[22:28] <andax> j800r: skype problem fix: http://pastebin.com/d6dbdc120
[22:28] <tona> places computer i can not mount ntfs partition
[22:28] <SeveredCross> Yet Xorg is using 70% of CPU time.
[22:29] <robelliott2125> tona, does it say why it can't mount?
[22:29] <mjorin_> unop: yeah, in ~/ it creates dirs as 777 but not in /mnt/hgfs so i'm assuming it's a problem with hgfs then
[22:29] <tona> roberlliott2125 i tried to mouny it, but ntfs is now capable
[22:29] <tona> how can i mount one filesystem ntfs
[22:29] <unop> mjorin_, i don't know what hgfs is :/
[22:29] <robelliott2125> It should just mount tona, just double click the drive.
[22:30] <mjorin_> unop: oh sorry, it's VMWares little fs for sharing folders between guest and host OSs
[22:30] <frojnd> Hello there
[22:30] <frojnd> A few questions for u fine ppl.
[22:30] <unop> tona, sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdXX /media/mount_point
[22:30] <frojnd> How can I check if I have feisty or a gutsy, and second one, how can I upgrade to the latest version of ubuntu ?=
[22:30] <unop> tona, or  pmount-hal /dev/sdXX
[22:30] <robelliott2125> unop, would that work on a LiveCD?
[22:30] <unop> robelliott2125, would what work?
[22:31] <andax> frohike: applications / accessories / terminal , type : 'cat /etc/issue'
[22:31] <unop> mjorin_, oh. no idea then .. i've never messed with vmware
[22:31] <robelliott2125> frojnd, click on System > About Ubuntu
[22:31] <morbyte1> SeveredCross: using compiz too? i noticed a lot of xorg time when compiz is active
[22:31] <unop> !version | frojnd
[22:31] <j800r> what's the terminal command for the alsa mixer? i forgot
[22:31] <mjorin_> unop: consider yourself lucky :), thanks for the suggestions and direction though
[22:31] <unop> j800r, alsamixer
[22:31] <robelliott2125> Then frojnd, for upgrading : System > Admin > Update Manager
[22:31] <carandraug> tona, unop command sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdXX /media/mount_point should work but don't forget to create the moun_point first
[22:32] <speener> is mysql on the ubuntu repos?
[22:32] <tona> ok
[22:32] <tona> thanks
[22:32] <unop> speener, yes off course
[22:32] <andax> speener: yes.

[22:32] <frojnd> just manager and upgrade ?
[22:32] <speener> only the apps i downloaded for it
[22:32] <frojnd> what about repository lists and all that ?
[22:32] <unop> !info mysql-client-5.0 | speener
[22:33] <carandraug> smguy: what do you mean? Just add sudo to your commands
[22:33] <robelliott2125> frojnd, just system > admin > Update manager (you'll see a button at the top saying what the newest distro is, and an upgrade button)
[22:33] <unop> !info mysql-server-5.0 > speener
[22:33] <smguy> well
[22:33] <andax> speener: install the 'mysql-server' package
[22:33] <robelliott2125> frojnd, all that will update when you've upgraded your distro.
[22:34] <Habernet> andax when i type what you said i get "syntax error near unexpected token 'newline' "
[22:34] <smguy> unop: it won't let me install any packages because it says I need to manually run "dpkg --configure -a"
[22:34] <andax> Habernet, what did you type?
[22:34] <smguy> and when I try to do that it says I ned super user privledges
[22:34] <speener> andax: i only get the administrator, query browser, navigator, and control center
[22:34] <speener> no server

[22:35] <morbyte1> owwww 3x...
[22:35] <morbyte1> !sudo | smguy
[22:35] <smguy> okay
[22:35] <smguy> it's not asking me for a password but won't let me type anything
[22:35] <smguy> it's now*
[22:36] <unop> smguy, sudo does not echo characters back to the screen for security reasons ..
[22:36] <unop> smguy, so just blindly type your password out .. and press RETURN/ENTER when done.
[22:36] <smguy> okay
[22:37] <smguy> it just did a bunch of stuff, I'll check if I can install things now...
[22:37] <frostbyt3> I still can't configure my wifi card, can someone please help!? It's the broadcom that is hard to install apparently
[22:37] <andax> Habernet, ok i read back.. the quotes indicate a command to be typed. the ' signs mean to type the command in between them. So dont type the ' signs, just the command between.
[22:37] <speener> wtf is mysql-server????????/
[22:37] <Habernet> andax this is wrong but my buddy here told me to type "cd <armyops250-linux.run>"

[22:38] <smguy> looks like it's working, thanks everyone
[22:38] <speener> i didn't swear

[22:39] <speener> unop: i know this, the problem is i cant find it in the repos

[22:39] <NodeRazor> frostburn, you should say which wifi card, like model... etc.
[22:39] <td-work> question: i am using ATI's driver on 8.04.  Everything works fine except I can't choose a resolution over 1024x768.  My monitors support 1280x1024.  Any ideas?
[22:39] <artemis> what is the command for auto loging. I have made a script and i want it everytime the system starts to do a certain thing but this thing needs root so what sall i put at the beginig to make this script behave like root ?
[22:39] <NodeRazor> frostburn, otherwise no one can help you lol
[22:39] <unop> speener, make sure you have all the ubuntu repos enabled
[22:39] <failure> preseed question: How do I configure NIS in a preseed file for hands free installation of Ubuntu, Hardy.
[22:40] <frostbyt3> it's the broadcom, dont know how to check it
[22:40] <speener> unop: where?
[22:40] <frostbyt3> the exact number
[22:40] <Habernet> andax so what exactly do i type, the file on my desktop is labeled "armyops250-linux.run"
[22:40] <unop> speener, system > admin > software sources
[22:40] <andax> Habernet: ok, so let's go step-by-step. i assume you have opened a terminal. ( applications / accessories / terminal ) There you see a command prompt ending with "~$". Type 'sudo bash'. ( will ask for the password. ) Notice the command line ending change from $ to #. ( indicating you have root privileges ) Is this okay to this point?
[22:40] <hal_v2> Okay so I have three files: slackware-12.1-install-dvd.iso; slackware-12.1-install-dvd.iso.asc; and slackware-12.1-install-dvd.iso.md5 I want to turn these into a slackware install dvd. I have five dvd+r's and no clue as to how to do this.
[22:40] <Habernet> andax yes
[22:40] <carandraug> frostbyt3: you can check the number with lshw -C network or lspci (which is the link that ubotu gave you)
[22:40] <frostburn> NodeRazor, ?
[22:40] <unop> andax, sudo -i   not   sudo bash
[22:41] <NodeRazor> frostburn, doing research right now, please wait.
[22:41] <NodeRazor> frostburn, what version of ubuntu you use?
[22:41] <unop> artemis, call your script from /etc/rc.local  .. it will automatically run as root
[22:41] <unop> !boot | artemis
[22:42] <NodeRazor> frostburn, here is one tutorial I found it might help you > http://www.howtoforge.com/linux_broadcom
[22:42] <frostbyt3> It's the BCM4311 on Ubuntu 8
[22:42] <frostburn> NodeRazor, you want frostbyt3 not me
[22:42] <NodeRazor> sorry mate =D
[22:42] <NodeRazor> my bad
[22:42] <andax> Habernet, type 'cd ~/Desktop' without the ' signs. Then type 'ls' to list the directory. You'll see the installer directory there. 'cd <dirname>' will change to that directory. start the installer by typing './filename.run'
[22:42] <artemis> sorry i wrote it wrong
[22:43] <artemis> i need to use ifconfig everytime i start system
[22:43] <speener> unop: still no mysql-server
[22:43] <bigmack83> i have installed gparted, but when selecting my ubuntu partition it has a lock icon next to it and i cant shrink the volume. how can i resize it?

[22:47] <newbiew_> how do uninstall something. using terminal? not synaptic
[22:47] <JB^> vbman11, thx
[22:47] <HigH5> Stevethepirate: Gnokii is the base upon which Wammu is built.
[22:47] <Stevethepirate> HigH5: kthans.. is it in repo's? [can't check due to being on windows at the moment]
[22:47] <newbiew_> apt-get uninstall?
[22:47] <andax> Habernet: it's gonna work, dont worry.
[22:47] <vbman11> JB^:anytime
[22:47] <carandraug> newbee617: sudo apt-get install package_name
[22:47] <HigH5> Stevethepirat: Yes, both are in the repos.
[22:47] <regel_> newbiew, apt-get remove
[22:47] <newbiew_> thanks
[22:48] <carandraug> newbiew: sorry, I read install. just use remove instead of install
[22:48] <regel_> newbiew, or apt-get purge which removes config files
[22:48] <zorrolero> Stevethepirate: http://www.spiration.co.uk/post/1307
[22:48] <failure> anybody know about configuring NIS through preseed file?
[22:48] <artemis> unop, i should write my script to rc.local ?
[22:48] <regel_> newbiew, or was it apt-get remove --purge.. i dunno
[22:48] <Habernet> andax, it says its installing base install and the bar goes to 100 percent then it does the same over and over again, is this normal?
[22:48] <bigcx2> hey does anybody else in here have a dell m1330?
[22:48] <HigH5> Stevethepirate: Just type in the terminal "aptitude search gnokii"
[22:48] <vbman11> Ok so I accidentialy removed a very important entry in "sessions" the one for checking for new hardware, what is the command for that one?
[22:49] <HigH5> And you'll get all the packages available.
[22:49] <vbman11> so I can add it back in
[22:49] <bigmack83> is there a way i can unlock a partition in gparted so i can shrink an ubuntu partition? it has a lock next to it
[22:49] <joaopinto> vbman11, jockey-gtk --check 60
[22:49] <unop> artemis, if your script is located at  /some/path/myscript   do this.   sudo chmod +x /some/path/myscript     and then edit /etc/rc.local  and put this line just before the last line (exit)   /some/path/myscript

[22:49] <danopia_> anyone konw of any sideaffects of nvidia drivers that might cause gdm/x to not start?
[22:49] <regel_> bigmack83, u have to umount it first
[22:50] <vbman11> joaopinto: thanks!
[22:50] <danopia_> when i try booting it errors out and flood me with "too much work for irq17"
[22:50] <danopia_> booting x*
[22:50] <danopia_> i'm still using irssi outside of x
[22:50] <weeble> wankers
[22:50] <bigmack83> regel_, ok thanks. can i do that if im currently on that partition?
[22:50] <regel_> bigmack83, i suggest u fire up the live cd, and use command gparted and then resize it
[22:50] <carandraug> bigmack83: since you can't umount the partition you're using (you said you wanted to do it to the ubuntu partition) I think you'll have to use the LiveCD
[22:50] <andax> Habernet: i dont know americas army (?) , i just told you the way how to install games. The progress bar indicator may or may not be accurate, depends entirely on the game you're installing. just give it a few minutes, it should finish sooner or later
[22:51] <regel_> bigmack83, and then boot up ubuntu once again
[22:51] <Habernet> andax thanks for the help again.
[22:51] <Stevethepirate> HigH5: I would.. but lack of internet for linux means I can't get off it.
[22:52] <danopia_> anyone? i would google it but i don't have x to use firefox
[22:52] <bigmack83> ok thanks. i will pop it in. i dont remember seeing a menu to do that so how do i set that up? do i go through the install setup untill i get to the partition then quit when im done
[22:52] <carandraug> Stevethepirate: you'll have to download the deb files in a computer with internet access
[22:52] <hal_v2> Okay so I have three files: slackware-12.1-install-dvd.iso; slackware-12.1-install-dvd.iso.asc; and slackware-12.1-install-dvd.iso.md5 I want to turn these into a slackware install dvd. I have five dvd+r's and no clue as to how to do this.
[22:52] <regel_> danopia_, yea there are propably a bunch of x-killing bugs in every non-open-source driver
[22:52] <sarthor> Hi. i can use my webcam on Kopete/and cheese, but not on gyachi, in in gyachi.. setup tap in webcam device there in "/dev/video0" .. Any help please.
[22:53] <regel_> hal_v2, burn the .iso file as an IMAGE
[22:53] <regel_> hal_v2, guide: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BurningIsoHowto
[22:53] <carandraug> bigmack83: there isn't a command. I don't think LiveCD comes with gparted. You'll hve to use the terminal
[22:53] <hal_v2> <3 thanks
[22:54] <regel_> carandraug, nope, it comes with gparted, what else would it use for partitioning
[22:54] <carandraug> regel_: fdisk
[22:54] <Stevethepirate> carandraug: I know, thats why I asked if it was in repos  sicne the repo's list the dependancies :D
[22:54] <bigmack83> ok, and theres an option for that when putting in the cd?
[22:54] <regel_> carandraug, rly? in 6.10 there was a gparted
[22:54] <danopia_> regel_: do you have any tips on removing it? i used a custom sh file to install it
[22:54] <Stevethepirate> but ok
[22:54] <andax> danopia, google says: I added a boot parameter 'irqpoll' ... so when the boot menu appears press the 'e' key, add the word 'irqpoll' to the end of the first line and press enter to boot the kernel, ... may or may not help ( only googled for it )
[22:54] <danopia_> how would i stop x from using the driver
[22:55] <crptx> tell me
[22:55] <Stevethepirate> brb
[22:55] <Sinnerman> i think ive found a bug in ntfs-3g or gnome mount. when i mount a filesystem normally, i get all my files, some of which have unicode characters. i then mounted the same filesystem readonly, and a bunch of those files with unicode characters disappear. when i mount the partition readwrite again, the files reappear. why is that? the problem only happens if i mount a partition from within gnome (ie, removable devices). does not happen manually.
[22:55] <regel_> danopia_, sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[22:55] <danopia_> hmm i'll try that then, andax
[22:55] <Sinnerman> is there a way to fix that?
[22:55] <carandraug> regel_: I think I have to install manually gparted for a friend of mine. I didn't even knew it existed. Always used fdisk
[22:55] <danopia_> then i'll try the conf if that done'st work
[22:55] <danopia_> thanks
[22:55] <regel_> danopia_, and Driver "nvidia" -> Driver "nv"
[22:56] <hal_v2> regel_ that guide is nonexistent.
[22:56] <regel_> danopia_, orrrrrrr sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[22:56] <regel_> hal_v2, rly? let me get u another one
[22:56] <hal_v2> regel_ just kidding, it was loading slow because I'm dl'ing something.
[22:56] <regel_> :)
[22:56] <alistair> Help: anyone here using Amarok?
[22:57] <hal_v2> alistair: I am.
[22:57] <andax> danopia: preventing x from using the driver: pass the 'init=/bin/sh' parameter to the kernel upon boot using the above method. So upon booting you instantly get a root shell. Edit the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf , and replace the driver to 'vesa' and save the file. Type reboot and boot as you normally would.
[22:57] <carandraug> Stevethepirate: sorry. I caught the problem in the middle and only read that you wanted to use apt-get and had no internet access. I think you can download the list of available packages in another computer and then load in your ubuntu to search
[22:58] <discombobulated> anyone using realtek hd audio?
[22:58] <alistair> hal_v2, Hi tks - I am used to using another playlist creator which lets me manage filename tags ID3 etc. I want to be able to get say all 'Eagles' mixed in a directory and put them into another directory
[22:58] <andax> discombobulated, ask the question please...
[22:58] <discombobulated> would i be better off with realtek onboard or audigy 2 in linux?
[22:59] <Slart> discombobulated: creative is a nasty company.. and hopefully the first against the wall when the revolution comes.. ;)
[22:59] <alistair> hal_v2, basically question is can I use Amarok to do file management?
[22:59] <andax> discombobulated: realtek onboard.
[22:59] <Slart> discombobulated: but my audigy 2 works nicely in ubuntu.. on board soundcards can be good or bad.. some get more interference
[23:00] <outlier> Can anyone assist me getting a USB mic working?
[23:00] <shayla> where do i ask questions on kubuntu
[23:00] <NodeRazor> alistair, the Exaile is better =D
[23:00] <hal_v2> alistair: To manage files I'd recommend rythmbox above amarok, but I prefer amarok for most things, just because it's more organized looking. It's a matter of preferences, you shouldn't have a problem. I'm not really good with the technical stuff, in that if I haven't had the problem, I don't know the solution. Sorry. :3
[23:00] <carandraug> shayla: try #kubuntu
[23:00] <zanberdo> I've just installed hardy to my ibm T42 lappy which uses the ATI Technologies Inc Radeon RV250 [Mobility FireGL 9000] (rev 02) card.  I've discovered evidently the previously availble driver has been blacklisted.  How can I override this?
[23:00] <Slart> shayla: here or in #kubuntu
[23:00] <discombobulated> so now maybe i can give away my card. it's giving me problems in vista because of driver issues. if it works good in linux, i'll just do away with audigy
[23:01] <andax> zanberdo: check /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist file

[23:02] <alistair> NodeRazor, tks am installing it now certainly the descriptor indicates it will do exactly what I need tks vm.
[23:02] <andax> discombobulated: no drivers needed it will just work. audigy 2 will 'just work' too.
[23:02] <carandraug> Stevethepirate: I'm not sure but it seems that apt-cache might be useful for you then
[23:03] <insomninja> When using the terminal I can't use the combination C-z because I have a dvorak layout and gnome-terminal for some reason catches that as C-- (zoom out). Is it possible to turn off all or certain keyboard shortcuts for gnome-terminal?
[23:03] <discombobulated> andax, but will it be better to install the drivers from the site?
[23:03] <hwilde> Slart, do I need it??  I think it's segfaulting and locking up my cpu !  23 reboots in the last 5 hours and counting
[23:03] <zanberdo> according to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/201330 the whole line of ATI drivers is blacklisted.  I've looked at /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist and don't see anything listed there.
[23:03] <Slart> hwilde: I have no idea what it does.. did you read the thread?
[23:03] <discombobulated> andax, from realtek?
[23:03] <remoteCTRL> !tv > remoteCTRL
[23:04] <hwilde> Slart, yeah but it doesn't make any sense and barely even mentions console-kit
[23:04] <andax> discombobulated: that would make no sense. realtek hd onboard audio will just work, don't install 'drivers' you don't need.
[23:04] <NodeRazor> alistair, np
[23:04] <nyersa> Hi all hoping someone can help me out with a problem I am having on an ubuntu box running zope/plone... I just upgraded dists last night to hardy... I was previously running zope 2.7. Well now when I try to do an apt-get upgrade it bombs with an unmet dependancy error on zope-cmfactionicons, saying that zope2.7 is not installable, and suggests that I run a apt-get -f install
[23:04] <nyersa> when I try that, apt trys to install zope 2.10, but then dies on zope-cmfactionicons, .dzproduct file not found...
[23:05] <discombobulated> andax, sometimes the drivers from the manu. give extra options and might have needed updates
[23:05] <nyersa> anyone have any ideas?
[23:05] <andax> discombobulated: it's not the case with 'Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801G (ICH7 Family) High Definition Audio Controller'
[23:06] <discombobulated> why would realtek waste time writing a linux driver if none is needed and already sounds good?
[23:06] <Slart> hwilde: barely mentions it? are we talking about the same thread? the one named "What is console kit daemon" ? and there are some explanations in the later posts as to what it does and why it's there?
[23:06] <DrX> How do you fix the error "Share is not accessible.  You might not have permissions to use this network resource." when browsing from XP Pro to Linux server?
[23:06] <andax> discombobulated: because doing copy/paste and publishing someone else's job make them look like they actually care :)
[23:06] <discombobulated> andax, so intel just lets the distro include their official driver or devs just work on an open driver?
[23:07] <discombobulated> andax, oh, it's not "their" driver, gotcha
[23:07] <hwilde> Slart, did YOU read the thread?  nothing in there but the link to the bug.  what is it, do i need it
[23:08] <discombobulated> does intel cooperate with the devs to build these drivers?

[23:11] <DrX> anyone here familiar with SAMBA?
[23:11] <andax> discombobulated: intel will have the exact same quality on linux as it is on windows. Audigy has some windows-only software that's not available on linux. When using linux stay with the intel onboard thing without installing anything.

[23:12] <discombobulated> andax, thanks. i will bug you no more ;)
[23:12] <Habernet> andax america's army installed properly but when i try to open it via applications menu, nothing happens
[23:13] <C0D3X_Z3R0> hmmmm yeah could be firefox 3 whos screwing it
[23:13] <onthefence928> Daisuke_laptop last i checked teh version of flash that adobe released for firefox is roken compared to teh other versions, it causes uneeded lag on video playback
[23:13] <zorrolero> nyersa: maybe try "dpkg-reconfigure zope"
[23:13] <Daisuke_Laptop> onthefence928: again, could have fooled me, it works just fine
[23:13] <discombobulated> Habernet, you tried to start it via console to see any error messages?
[23:13] <C0D3X_Z3R0> thx for the info guys
[23:14] <discombobulated> C0D3X_Z3R0, have you tried the beta flash version?
[23:14] <onthefence928> Daisuke_Laptop: like is said" last i checked" os maybe they fixed it
[23:14] <zorrolero> nyersa: or "aptitude -f install zope"
[23:14] <Habernet> discombobulated no, im fairly new to linux, how do i open it via terminal?
[23:14] <nyersa> zorrolero: hmm, when I do that it says that zope is not installed... I think something broken when it was moving from zope2.7 to zope2.10
[23:14] <C0D3X_Z3R0> i did not try that yet iam gone take a look at that
[23:15] <Slade> if i just installed a hard disk to my ubuntu box, is there a graphical disk management/utility tool that i can use to format it and set a mount point for it?
[23:15] <\sia\> huner: welcome
[23:15] <\sia\> r u using linux?
[23:15] <huner> Thank U
[23:16] <huner> No
[23:16] <tom_> C0D3X_Z3R0: I had pretty good luck with flash after I followed the guide at http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=5587712&postcount=472
[23:16] <carandraug> Slade: I believe you can use gpart to format it, it has a GUI. I always use the terminal
[23:16] <danopia`xubuntu> hi.....
[23:16] <TheChuckster> hi danopia
[23:17] <danopia`xubuntu> i edited /etc/C11/xorg.conf and now x boots
[23:17] <andax> Habernet: you need to check to output to tell what's wrong. Here's how you do it: Right Click the applications menu, then select 'Edit Menus'. Wait a second, the editor will come up.  Chose games, and the menu item you start the game with. Right click again, and see the 'properties' option. Write down what you see at the 'Command' field.  Open a terminal and type the same. This way you see the error message, we need that to help it.
[23:17] <danopia`xubuntu> now i just need ot figure out why that happened and get nvidia back :P
[23:17] <TheChuckster> anyone here use scientific computing software in Ubuntu?
[23:17] <tom_> Anybody know how to get a usb mic to work in 8.04.1 ?
[23:17] <TheChuckster> lsusb and see if it shows up
[23:17] <TheChuckster> but any how
[23:17] <TheChuckster> i was wondering what happened to koctave?
[23:17] <tom_> It does
[23:17] <Ragnar> Steam window is stuck to the upper right corner of my screen
[23:18] <TheChuckster> tom_ maybe its a driver problem then
[23:18] <TheChuckster> im not sure how to get ubuntu to recognize it as an audio device since you cant go in and directly edit the config files or it breaks the GUI configuration utilities
[23:18] <TheChuckster> at least not in Ubuntu
[23:18] <TheChuckster> i used to go in and edit config files all the time with Gentoo
[23:18] <tom_> I know - getting both monitors working was a pain that way
[23:19] <TheChuckster> hm wow im surprised it wasnt an easy task
[23:19] <grendal_prime> grrrr
[23:19] <TheChuckster> but any how i was wondering about GUI front ends for Octave...
[23:19] <phantoms> Hi all. I hitting the wall with the new features of 8.4. Im at the install in livemode at setting the / and the Home partition. There is a new option:  "Use as:EXT3 journaling filesistem" and other options. what is ther right option for usual install?
[23:19] <TheChuckster> anyone know what happened to KOctave?
[23:19] <grendal_prime> trying to figure out if i should upgrade this thing to hardy
[23:19] <TheChuckster> I'm looking for something similar to MATLAB for school
[23:19] <andax> tom_, plug the mic out, plug back in. open a terminal and type 'dmesg |tail' without the quotes. tell us what you see.
[23:19] <TheChuckster> and I was wondering if qtoctave resembles it or not
[23:19] <tom_> ok
[23:20] <TheChuckster> btw whats the lsusb entry for the mic?
[23:20] <carandraug> Slade: I searched and it's called gparted, not gpart
[23:20] <TheChuckster> carandraug: yeah you're right
[23:20] <Slade> yeh i got it
[23:21] <Habernet> andax it says "./armyops-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[23:21] <Habernet> "
[23:21] <TheChuckster> but any how, nobody is familiar with MATLAB or Octave or Scilab?
[23:22] <tom_> Don't want to spam, basically it says USB disconnect, address 9,; new full speed usb device using ehci-hcd address 11, config #1 from 1 choice.
[23:22] <andax> Habernet, then just install the 'libstdc++5-3.3-dev' package.
[23:23] <andax> Habernet: basically open a terminal again and type 'sudo apt-get install libstdc++5-3.3-dev' , enter the password and answer yes to the question.
[23:24] <Habernet> andax its installing thanks
[23:24] <andax> tom_, go to www.pastebin.com , copy and paste the whole stuff , then give us the url. this way we see the whole log and you won't flood the channel.
[23:24] <Ragnar> Problem with wine and Steam, window sticks to the borders of my screen and after that the mouse isnt clicking where its supposed to. this only happends with steam. wine 1.1.2 and ubuntu 8.04
[23:24] <tom_> I can open up paman see it in the list; and even open a volume meter for it and it looks to be working, but it seems not to work in any app.  OK - will do the pastebin thing.
[23:24] <phantoms>  Hi all. I'm hitting the wall with the new features of 8.4. Im at the install in livemode at setting the / and the Home partition. There is a new option:  "Use as:EXT3 journaling filesistem" and other options. what is ther right option for usual install?
[23:25] <TheChuckster> ragnar don't bother with Wine and Steam
[23:25] <Gnea> phantoms: EXT3 is fine
[23:25] <TheChuckster> When I _finally_ managed to get HL2DM to run and play a game, the FPS was terrible.
[23:25] <Ragnar> really? but I want to play =)
[23:25] <TheChuckster> It took forever to connect too.
[23:25] <carandraug> phaedra: use ext3. It's the best if you don't know what the other are
[23:25] <TheChuckster> And tons of glitches.
[23:25] <TheChuckster> Especially when fragment shaders were involved.
[23:26] <carandraug> phantoms: use ext3. It's the best if you don't know what the other are
[23:26] <TheChuckster> Also, it seems like each new Wine version has its own unique set of regressions/fixes.
[23:26] <phantoms> ﻿Gnea:i tried it ( the only option is ﻿EXT3 journaling filesistem that gives me error 7 whan im booting from HD partition
[23:26] <TheChuckster> Fix one thing, break another.
[23:26] <Ragnar> thanks for the input, but Im gonna keep trying =)
[23:26] <discombobulated> does anyone know if linux's sound is like asio? or is there an equivalent to asio in linux?
[23:26] <TheChuckster> I mean it IS playable.
[23:27] <Morgie> I have tried every tutorial in the book on trying to get my BCM43XG wifi card running in hardy and with no avail, any ideas, and my computer is not here
[23:27] <TheChuckster> You just won't get the same kind of score you do in Windows because of the frame rate, glitches, etc.
[23:27] <Habernet> andax everything works great thanks for the help, the ability to have a video game in linux has really got me involved, maybe ill see you again soon, peace.
[23:27] <tom_> andax: OK, the lines that were added by plugging & unplugging are at http://pastebin.com/d231f6cd4
[23:27] <pazsion> would wine problems be offtopic?
[23:27] <Ragnar> I see your point, I play mostly DOW online so fps does not matter much
[23:28] <carandraug> pazsion: no. But they would probably feel more at home at wine channel
[23:28] <BraveSpear> Easy question (I hope).  How do I get a program to automatically start at login (not bootup)?
[23:28] <Ragnar> dont know anything about my sticky-steam-window-problem?
[23:28] <TheChuckster> i had that problem too IIRC
[23:28] <TheChuckster> i sent in a bug report
[23:29] <TheChuckster> it got fixed, then the new version broke it again, and now they are fixing it again
[23:29] <Ragnar> ok, so its not only steam then
[23:29] <TheChuckster> well I only tried Steam with Wine
[23:29] <TheChuckster> but I'd imagine it would affect similarly written programs
[23:29] <carandraug> pazsion: tried #winehq ?
[23:29] <TheChuckster> i'm not sure about the exact details though since I don't use the Win32 API
[23:29] <imperfect-> Anyone running a Intel DX38BT
[23:29] <boobsbr> howdy, i did a fresh install of hardy and after enabling the nvidia proprietary drivers, my computer boots up in safe graphics mode. the drivers are enabled but i can't change the resolution. could someone direct me towards a solution?
[23:30] <pazsion> meh i'll ask here first... i'm trying to install aol...i haven't found anything on google i'm comfortable in installing...and wine isn't running the install program from aol...is there a linux version or should i use the mac version? or is wine the way to go..how do i get it working the settings i've used don't run it
[23:30] <imperfect-> and/or have any experience getting the optical outs
[23:30] <Ragnar> alright.. guese Ill stay out of the corners till they fix then =)
[23:30] <aguitel> boobsbr, i think you install wrong driver
[23:30] <carandraug> pazsion: when you say aol, you mean AIM?
[23:31] <boobsbr> aguitel: how, i just followed ubuntu's instructions
[23:31] <pazsion> no, aol, the client uses the whole software as they have an account with them
[23:31] <joh> Hi, I'm trying to install Ubuntu 8.10, but it doesn't detect my IDE drive. The drive is detected fine in BIOS. What gives?
[23:31] <pazsion> otherwise she just pirates wi-fi access =P
[23:32] <sk33t0r> is there a way to test if packet injection is working?
[23:32] <marshall> how do I use a .msi file?
[23:32] <uoaphys> Hi guys, whats the best way to share a HP usb inkjet printer to windows machines on my network?
[23:32] <carandraug> pazsion: ok. Sorry, don't anything about that. For me (non-american) aol only means aim
[23:32] <Slade> marshall: use wine
[23:32] <aguitel> boobsbr, there are some drivers to install
[23:32] <pazsion> so you login to the net through aim?
[23:32] <marshall> Slade: what command would i issue
[23:32] <boobsbr> aguitel, what should i do to get it right?
[23:33] <Slade> marshall: wine file.msi
[23:33] <Slade> u need to install wine first
[23:33] <aguitel> boobsbr, install from synaptic envyng and try install with it
[23:33] <boobsbr> ok, but how to uninstall the ones installed by ubuntu?
[23:33] <aguitel> boobsbr, envyng do that
[23:34] <Totakeke> Hi, I need a little help booting from a flash drive?
[23:34] <andax> tom_: sorry to tell you but this looks bad, most likely the device you plugged in is unsupported by the kernel you're running. The only thing you can try is typing 'lsusb' in a terminal, and google for the device ID you see left of the name of the device.  ( xxxx:yyyy , numbers separated by a : sign ) Maybe someone got it working somehow... but chances are low.
[23:34] <joh> Err, 8.04
[23:34] <boobsbr> aguitel, ok thanks mate!
[23:34] <aguitel> boobsbr, make uninstall with envyng first
[23:34] <marshall> Slade: wine: could not load L"Z:\\home\\jeff\\dls\\Steaminstall.msi": Bad EXE format for
[23:34] <aguitel> boobsbr, there are 3 drivers nvidia
[23:35] <Slade> marshall: bad msi then
[23:35] <marshall> hmm
[23:35] <Totakeke> I went through the Linux installation process as normal and selected my flash drive from the menu for the guided install, just like it was a hard drive. (I have a 32 GiB drive, so size isn't an issue) but when I try to boot, it boots right to Windows. I even selected "removable device" in the Boot options menu in BIOS.
[23:35] <Ragnar> need help with Wine and Playonlinux
[23:35] <donnyw> hey all. can anyone supply some wireless advice to a newb?
[23:36] <carandraug> !wifi | donnyw
[23:36] <Slade> marshall: what are you trying to install?
[23:36] <tom_> andax: It worked well under 7.04.  I'm thinking I just don't have the right things chained up somehow; I probably need to get pulseaudio prefs & gnome sound prefs, etc. set correctly.
[23:36] <tom_> andax: Though I'm running out of permutations, honestly.
[23:36] <marshall> Slade: my friend is giving me halflife 2 and episode 1
[23:36] <wwalker> anyone know how to get LiveCD to notice the LVMs on the drive?  trying to rescue.  I've already installed lvm2 with aptitude.
[23:37] <droopsta915> i got a power point presentation from my teacher today, but i cant open it because he uses windows? what can i do?
[23:37] <Slade> marshall: hmm.. besides the obvious pirate problem, it may be a bad msi, or it won't install under wine. You may need to PURCHASE  Cedega
[23:37] <Totakeke> droop > Can't Open Office open power point files?
[23:38] <cppmonkey> droopsta915, give him a copy of Ubuntu ;-)
[23:38] <carandraug> droopsta915: you can. Use openoffice
[23:38] <marshall> Slade: no, hes trying to give it to me through steam. the msi is Steaminstall.msi
[23:38] <carandraug> droopsta915: in the worst that case (she uses microsoft office 2007), there's plenty of tools online to convert pptx to ppt or odp
[23:39] <droopsta915> it says Change the association in your preferences.
[23:39] <grigora> how do I know what Ubuntu release I'm working with?
[23:39] <Slade> marshall: again, wine may not handle it
[23:39] <usualhandle_lap> uname -R
[23:39] <Slade> grigora: System -> About Ubuntu
[23:39] <Totakeke> I can't boot Linux from my 32 GiB flash drive. Installed it on the flash drive like it was another hard drive, but still nothing. I even selected boot from "removable device" in BIOS. Is it possible that my BIOS doesn't support booting from USB devices? It's a 780i SLI.
[23:39] <cppmonkey> droopsta915, I concer with carandraug, just open PPT file in OpenOffice just fine... though I wouldnt know about 2007
[23:39] <hano> hi
[23:40] <grigora> Slade: how about from CLI?
[23:40] <Slade> grigora: uname -a
[23:40] <droopsta915> k thanx everyone.
[23:40] <grigora> Slade: doesn't really say
[23:40] <usualhandle_lap> question:  what's a good mailreader that I can navigate with the keyboard?  I would prefer something GTK-ish, but if it has to be mutt or pine or something I'll live
[23:40] <grigora> Slade: I want to know if I am on Feisty or not
[23:41] <hano> I'd like to use two separate monitors in ubuntu 8.04. I tried to configure it using "System -> ... -> Screen Resolution"
[23:41] <Totakeke> Can anyone help? I'm trying to boot Ubuntu from my flash drive.
[23:41] <CochiseIRL> uname -a
[23:41] <hano> there I see two screens that can be moved around each other so as to position them as I like
[23:41] <Ragnar> how do I make programs installed in wine open up in window-mode, ie not fullscreen
[23:41] <carandraug> cppmonkey: droopsta915, OpenOffice doesn't open the new format of Microsoft Office as far as I'm aware. You can ask your teacher to save it in the old format (Office 2007 has that option) or you can convert it online in zamzar website
[23:41] <cppmonkey> is there a diffrent channel for 64bit?
[23:41] <hano> but having done so and applying it, the screens are moved back to their old position, in which they heavily overlap
[23:41] <rr73> Gnea~ my usb devices work now and don't go capoots but gnome still locks up
[23:41] <CochiseIRL> grigora, lsb_release -a
[23:42] <pingveno> I'm trying to get BeautifulSoup 3.x.x installed on Dapper, which has 2.x.x. Is there a way to upgrade it without upgrading the whole system?
[23:42] <hano> I can't separate them - they are always taken back to their old positions
[23:42] <rr73> my top and bottom gnome panels freeze up
[23:42] <hano> can somebody help me?
[23:42] <carandraug> cppmonkey: no. You can take a look at all channels here https://help.ubuntu.com/community/InternetRelayChat
[23:42] <grigora> CochiseIRL: lsb_release -a - no such command
[23:43] <Totakeke> I need help booting from Ubuntu from my flash drive?
[23:43] <uoaphys> will someone look at this pastebin? http://paste.ubuntu.com/39232/ I am getting this error when I try to print from a remote system via http cups server. Please help.
[23:44] <cppmonkey> carandraug, I didnt know there where soo many channels dedicated to ubuntu :o
[23:44] <lisa_> If I'm using Virtualbox and running Ubuntu as a guest to Vista which is the host, can any virus, spyware, keylogger, trojan etc infect Ubuntu from Vista or vice versa? Can a Microsoft Vista windows virus, spyware, keylogger, trojan etc infect Ubuntu and become active on Ubuntu? And vice versa?
[23:44] <aguitel> how speed up updates in mirrors ?
[23:44] <carandraug> cppmonkey: just so you get an idea how big the community is ;)
[23:44] <rr73> what would cause gnome to lock up and firefox not start/launch but thunderbird will and my gnome panels to lock up and not respond?
[23:44] <grigora> how do I know if I am on Feisty or something else? from CLI
[23:45] <donnyw> so I'm not really having any luck finding specific support for my wireless card, any suggestions?
[23:45] <Slade> grigora: why only from cli?
[23:45] <genii> lisa_: If you're saving things in a common place and you d/l a virus in an email or vb macro for instance, you can infect windows from inside ubuntu. but not the other way around
[23:45] <grigora> Slade: because I am connected to it remotely
[23:45] <CochiseIRL> grigora, cat /etc/issue
[23:45] <ConstyXIV> lisa_: Technically no, but if you run the other OS in a VM, the keylogger on the native side will pick up everything you do in the VM
[23:45] <grigora> CochiseIRL: many thanks
[23:45] <e7th04sh> practically not
[23:45] <remoteCTRL> i am trying to get motv to run but i get errors, see http://www.nopaste.org/p/aeRB7rp1cb i basically have a picture and channels but i get no sound, any ideas please?
[23:45] <CochiseIRL> grigora, it worked for you?
[23:46] <e7th04sh> it can't be trusted
[23:46] <FloodBot1> !netsplit
[23:46] <cppmonkey> carandraug, Ive been playng round with Ubuntu since 5.04, though its only recently that ive moved my storage system to ubuntu
[23:46] <droopsta915> how can i open a ppt file?
[23:46]  * ConstyXIV ow
[23:46] <ConstyXIV> droopsta915: double-click it
[23:46] <uoaphys> ﻿will someone look at this pastebin? http://paste.ubuntu.com/39232/ I am getting this error when I try to print from a remote system via http cups server. Please help.
[23:47] <lisa_> ConstyXIV, so only keyloggers are a concern?
[23:47] <droopsta915> it says change the association in your preferences.
[23:47] <Slade> grigora: cat /etc/issue
[23:47] <ConstyXIV> lisa_: yeah, and then only in VMs
[23:47] <ConstyXIV> lisa_: if you dual-boot, there's not much to worry about
[23:47] <Vastlee> New User, just installed the 64bit Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Desktop Edition.  Installation seemed to go without a hitch, but the drive I installed it on won't boot.
[23:48] <lisa_> ConstyXIV, so as long as my windows is clean of any keyloggers, I can safely use Ubuntu in virtualbox?
[23:48] <ConstyXIV> lisa_: that includes wubii
[23:48] <ConstyXIV> lisa_: yes
[23:48] <lisa_> ConstyXIV, whats wubii?
[23:48] <Totakeke> I need a little help booting Linux from my flash drive, it just boots right to Windows. I already changed the boot order for "removable drives
[23:48] <grigora> CochiseIRL: yes, it did
[23:48] <carandraug> cppmonkey: took you a lot of time. I started in December and already threw MIcrosoft out the window
[23:48] <Totakeke> but that didn't help
[23:48] <lisa_> ConstyXIV, i never type anything in Ubuntu anyway. I copy and paste from a text file into my bank website
[23:48] <ConstyXIV> lisa_: er, wubi.  basically it's a new non-destructive method of dual-booting
[23:49] <mottz> anyone have any insights into mounting a sbp2 harddrive via ieee1394?
[23:49] <uoaphys> Hi, what permissions do I need set in the system and with cups to allow remote users  to print froma  windows machine? I think thats whats blocking my remote print jobs. Thanks,.
[23:49] <Vastlee> New User, just installed the 64bit Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Desktop Edition.  Installation seemed to go without a hitch, but the drive I installed it on won't boot. Not only have I set the drive I installed it to as the primary boot device in cmos, but I've also used the boot manager to specify that drive.  Does anyone have any suggestions?
[23:50] <ConstyXIV> lisa_: just burn or mount the ISO, click "Install inside Windows" in the autorun, follow directions, presto.  100% safe, reversible dual-boot
[23:50] <rr73> apt-get 'ing kubuntu-desktop changes it all to kubuntu or can i still run gnome as well and just change what i login?
[23:50] <Slade> grigora: cat /etc/issue
[23:50] <lisa_> ConstyXIV, what?
[23:50] <caveman26> how do I format a drive without using the root account? I just formated my external in root, now I cant write to it with my user account, how do I fix that?
[23:50] <frostbyt3> now that I finally got ubuntu working, whats the first thing I should download/ do?
[23:50] <usser> caveman26, whats the filesystem?
[23:50] <Slade> Vastlee: physical device type? SATA (Serial ATA), PATA (Parallel ATA)
[23:50] <caveman26> ext3
[23:51] <Bodsda>  frostbyt3 your choice, i always get rid of the orangeness
[23:51] <Vastlee> SATA
[23:51] <ConstyXIV> lisa_: it's a way of installing ubuntu in a dual-boot setup without destroying anything.  /msg me if you want a walkthrough
[23:51] <usser> caveman26, where do u mount it?
[23:51] <droopsta915> im trying to get a power point open but it says Change the association in your preferences.
[23:51] <caveman26> on my desktop
[23:51] <cppmonkey> carandraug, Unfortunatly I cant run Visual Studio on Linux, so thats the main reason. a lot of my code I write for my degree just doesnt work under wine
[23:51] <Slade> Vastlee: you *may* want to set the sata operation to legacy mode in your bios
[23:51] <caveman26> its just for backups
[23:51] <frostbyt3> what are some good sites for themes
[23:51] <Totakeke> Can someone help me? I'm trying to boot Ubuntu from my flash drive but it won't boot, it just boots to Windows. Help?
[23:51] <Bodsda> frostbyt3, www.gnome-look.org
[23:51] <Vastlee> Ok, I'll give it a shot.  Thanks for the suggestion Slade.
[23:51] <otro_viajero7> hello, did someone try to use ubuntu under a virtual machine with bochs?
[23:51] <andax> Vastlee, at the end of the installation there was a question about installing the boot loader into the 'mbr', if you answered yes then undo the changes you have done, remove the cd and it should boot. If you answered no then just change the boot device priority in the bios.
[23:51] <frostbyt3> thanks!
[23:51] <Slade> Vastlee: no prob, bob
[23:51] <carandraug> frostbyt3: do you use gnome or kde?
[23:52] <remoteCTRL> ﻿i am trying to get motv to run but i get errors, see http://www.nopaste.org/p/aeRB7rp1cb i basically have a picture and channels but i get no sound, any ideas please?
[23:52] <frostbyt3> No idea, jsut downloaded ubuntu from ubuntu.com
[23:52] <usser> caveman26, hm, well u gotta know the mountpoint, did u mount it manually or was it done automatically? its probably in /media
[23:52] <Vastlee> Andax: No such question came.  After installation, the only message that came up was that I needed to reboot the computer.
[23:52] <Bodsda> frostburn, is your dekstop orange or blue?
[23:52] <frostbyt3> orange
[23:52] <carandraug> frostbyt3: then it's gnome. www.gnome-look.org
[23:52] <Bodsda> frostbyt3, then your using gnome
[23:52] <rr73> apt-get 'ing kubuntu-desktop changes it all to kubuntu or can i still run gnome as well and just change what i login?
[23:52] <Vastlee> Going to go try switching it to legacy, we'll see from there.
[23:52] <Sorlag> Hi folks.. how do i edit which things are shown on desktop? i.e. mounted drives
[23:52] <andax> Vastlee, in this case disregard what i said sorry.
[23:53] <caveman26> automatically... its a USB drive
[23:53] <frostbyt3> Ok, thanks@
[23:53] <droopsta915> totakeke: what file format is ubuntu in the flashdrive?
[23:53] <marcules> Good Evening
[23:53] <Vastlee> Np, thanks for trying Andax
[23:53] <Bodsda> rr73, you get to choose between gnome or kde at the login screen, and you can run kde aps on gnome and vice versa
[23:53] <carandraug> Sorlag: UbuntuTweak has a great interface for that
[23:53] <usser> caveman26, look in /media there supposed to be something there besides cdrom
[23:53] <usser> caveman26, tell me whats there
[23:53] <roger> hi, I just upgraded from 7.10 to 8.04, I try to enable nvidia binary drivers for my nv 8800, upon restarting Ubuntu says its in "low graphics mode" and I have to select vga or else it hangs, what can I try? dpkg -l |grep nvidia  http://rafb.net/p/VirmMy62.html
[23:54] <Totakeke> When I first formatted the flash drive under windows it was NTFS. Should I format it differently?
[23:54] <Slade> Totakeke: yes. in the ubuntu install make sure its set to ext3
[23:54] <Spruce> Hello, I just updated my ubuntu (clicked the update icon and let it run in the background) however it changed something cause now if I boot to the newest option in grub my wireless is not working what so ever...so does anyone have any ideas about what happend?
[23:54] <carandraug> Sorlag: it's not in the repositories though. You'll have to take a look on their website
[23:55] <caveman26> I see my internal drive and the external drive
[23:55] <Sorlag> carandraug yeah but there is a terminal command for it.. but i couldnt remember..
[23:55] <Sorlag> like gconfig or smth
[23:55] <usser> caveman26, ok then whats the name of the external?
[23:55] <Totakeke> Slade: Does that mean I have to manually partition it or can I still use the guided installation? Should I reformat it under Windows to something different? (I don't think it partitions with the guided partitioning, I think it just partitions.
[23:55] <caveman26> 20g Media
[23:55] <carandraug> Sorlag: yeah. And there's probably some text file you can edit. Took a look at .gnome2 or .gconf/ ?
[23:56] <usser> caveman26, nah not that, open up terminal and type "ls /media" what does it say?
[23:56] <Slade> Totakeke: try doing it manually under the ubuntu install
[23:56] <Slade> and setting it to ext3
[23:57] <caveman26> ok... all I see is floppy and cdrom
[23:57] <Totakeke> Slade > So how much space should I give to each partition, and where should I mount it? (Mounting and partitioning was something I had a lot of trouble with when trying to install Ubuntu on my old PC)
[23:57] <Sorlag> carandraug .. the command was gconf-editor.. now im looking for the things to be shown on desktop Oo
