SlartWDC: Linux has something of a threshold before you get comfortable with it..00:00
woliem... does anybody know the url to the tango/gnome/gorilla/etc icon showroom?00:00
WDCScunizi: I guess. I got so accustomed to Windows that no matter what I needed to do, I could just do it00:00
woliits like a grey page with orange links00:00
FlannelWDC: configuration on windows would take just as long as it does here.  It doesn't take an hour.  It just takes you not freaking out about having to learn how to configure something.00:00
opt1kfwaokda: for more options to compile type "g++ --help"00:00
josh-heya soundray when you boot into recovery mode does it ask for your password?00:00
hubarWDC: what are you trying to do?00:00
fwaokdaopt1k, thanks00:00
FlannelWDC: keeping a cool head and not assuming "its way too big of a job" is an important part of learning anything new.00:00
josh-or anyone know rather?00:00
WDCFlannel: Nono, on Windows I had a GUI that i put my server address in, ports, enable, accounts, and there we go00:01
WDChubar: Mail server. POP3/SMTP00:01
soundrayEruditeHermit: your problem is now well out of my scope of experience. Have another look at testdisk docs -- maybe they've another hint.00:01
opt1kWDC: what are you setting up ? firewall ?00:01
WDCopt1k: Mail server. POP3/SMTP00:01
soundrayjosh-: no, it doesn't -- unless you've gone against the grain and set one.00:01
WDCFlannel: http://pastebin.ca/120215700:02
josh-ok00:02
kapatWDC: I set up my own mail server on linux.  It's not worth it anymore (IMHO) unless it's for a large organization00:02
opt1kWDC: you are trying to make/set up your own mail server right?00:02
WDCkapat: Why do you say that?00:02
hubarWDC: what software did you decide to use it (for your mail server?)?00:02
WDCopt1k: Yah00:02
kapatWDC: There are too many spam hoops to jump through, and you have to do everything "just right" or your mail can get rejected by some servers.00:02
WDChubar: Dovecot seems like a good choice for the POP3 side of things00:02
WDCkapat: hmm00:02
opt1kWDC: so do you use sendmail or something else?00:02
WDCopt1k: Nop00:03
ScuniziSchmittyDoesIt: working?00:03
WDCopt1k: No.00:03
SchmittyDoesItso far yup00:03
kapatWDC: Like, having a reverse dns lookup for your IP address is a big gotcha.  A lot of mail servers will drop you if your reverse dns lookup doesn't match the from domain.00:03
SchmittyDoesItScunizi: thanx that was fustrating00:03
WDCkapat: That could be bad00:03
WDCFlannel: Did you get it?00:03
opt1kWDC: so what's the part that's giving you trouble?00:04
kapatWDC: And unless you have a hosted environment, a lot of spam blacklists automatically block all dsl and cable IP addresses00:04
luisf_g3hello00:04
mgolischyeah unless you have a static ip and can setup the reversedns yourself you are kinda doomed00:04
WDCopt1k: Well configuring it. \00:04
kapatWDC: And you have to appeal them to get yourself removed00:04
WDCkapat: Damn00:04
ScuniziSchmittyDoesIt: good.. not always the best option to use.. command line is faster when you understand permissions and how to set them.. I'm still working on that.. when you're done with the root version of nautilus close it.. it's much too easy to destroy things that you shouldn't00:04
kapatWDC: I enjoyed learning about it, but it is a serious PITA to maintain00:04
WDCkapat: Hmm. Is there any alternative to Blackberry Server yet?00:05
FlannelWDC: alright, so, line 24, we want to remove the imap stuff, since we're not doing imap stuff (best to copy the line, comment the old one, edit the new one).  That's not really required, but isn't a bad thing.  The biggest thing we need to do is line 217.  We need to set a mail_location00:05
opt1kWDC: lol... well configuring what exactly? what have/haven't you configured ?00:05
FlannelWDC: Are you going to be using mbox or maildir?00:05
WDCFlannel: For SMTP? Not there yet. That will be another couple hours. :(00:05
kapatWDC: For a blackberry?00:05
FlannelWDC: no, not for SMTP.  This has nothing to do with SMTP00:05
WDCkapat: No for a Treo. What else would a blackberry server do00:05
silk_hello i just installed ubuntu and i i had Acronis os selecter running, now it just loads ubuntu, how can i put up a dual loader?00:05
WDCFlannel: Well what do you reccomend00:06
FlannelWDC: they're ... folder/file structures for storing the mail you get.00:06
FlannelWDC: I recommend maildir.00:06
WDCFlannel: Maildir it is00:06
hubarWDC: why don't you use courier?00:06
kapatWDC: My wife has a treo, and we bought a Zimbra hosted account.  You can then use exchange activesync to sync mail/contacts/calendar00:06
pmaddog320hi all newish to ubuntu just reading a massive book about it lol00:06

Gneacheers00:06
FlannelWDC: alright, so, line 211 has a sample line.  Copy the contents of that, to line 217 (without the comment, of course)00:06
WDCkapat: I was asking if there was a free alternative to Blackberry Server00:06
kapatWDC: Otherwise, you can get an IMAP account just about anywhere00:06
Gneapmaddog320: which one?00:06
silk_another question, i installing dappy, is there anyway to install the new ubuntu on this one?00:06
kapatWDC: Zimbra does push e-mail like blackberry00:07
hubarWDC: It has a web admin package in repository anyway. easier for you to set up :)00:07
Flannelsilk_: You can upgrade to Hardy, yes00:07

IDontSpeakEnglisis there a way to improve video playback with the nvidia driver that comes with ubuntu 8.04? all the time I play a video its lags a little and my video card is 8500gt00:07
kapatWDC: But there is no "open source blackberry server" that tries to emulate an actual blackberry server00:07
WDCFlannel: 211 is uncommented and IMAP is gone00:07
EruditeHermitsoundray: is there a way to tell it to force yes except the first one which I want to say no to for fsck00:07
WDCkapat: Ah thanks. SOmeone should do that00:07

lecapitancant some one help me with avant window manager00:07
soundrayEruditeHermit: don't know, sorry00:08
lecapitani cant get the dock to show00:08
kapatWDC: If you are using a treo, you should seriously look at zimbra.  It works very similarly to a blackberry server00:08
WDCFlannel: Done00:08
FlannelWDC: and, also, you're done.  Save and restart dovecot.  And, again, I must impress upon you that all we did was follow that wiki page I gave you.  So try actually following the documents you're given, instead of being annoying.00:08
WDCkapat: That was sarcasm\00:08
kapatWDC: lol... ok00:08
WDCFlannel: I apologize00:08

EruditeHermitsoundray: do you think there is any hope if I sit here for hours and hit yes for everything or should I give up?00:11
mgolischtimma: mostlikely, you just need to set all your apps to use alsa00:11
Flannelfoo: yeah, pretty much.  The feisty upgrade notes mention it.00:11

icedteawhere do I get ubuntu themes?00:16
mgolischtimma: but you can just disable pulseaudio in your session startup apps and set your players to use alsa instead00:16

PhantomaserUSUL: can you please tell me how?00:24
msoinisoundray: didn't do much :-(00:25
erUSULPhantomas: edit /etc/security/limits.conf and add a line like "*               hard    nproc           2000" that will limit the process a user can have to 2000 (safe and high enough limit) so a forkbomb can not make more than 2000 forks00:25

soundrayEruditeHermit: play it safe and do the backup first. Then you can't lose anything by trying to boot it00:42

Hotkeyjrib does ~ mean user?00:44

Hotkeyjrib ok thats the problem then - i'll try it there.00:45
Phantomas1erUSUL: i didnt understood00:45
jribHotkey: the '.' in '.snippets' is important too.  Make sure you do  View -> Show hidden files  as files that start with a '.' are hidden00:46
jribHotkey: and you don't need sudo for any of this00:46
erUSULPhantomas1: i tried a shell forkbomb right now with a limit of 2000 processes and my machine didn't crash and i hardly noted anything00:46

mgolischjacklake: cant you open it in the default archiver?00:51
sloopycy21, if you disabled sata in the bios and your older install still works then you dont have a sata drive00:51
erUSULPhantomas1: maybe you have to log out and log in again for the limits.conf file to be read00:51

Hotkeyjrib magic - it works now - hat do i need to learn?00:52
sloopycy21, its not a question of speed its a question of if it will work at all00:52
Hotkeywhat00:52
keeviemgolisch: it doesnt give any errors, it just launches00:52

jribHotkey: no problem00:53

sloopycy21, it is dependant on the drive... some patas are faster then some satas00:55

jacklakeSO to use LINUX I have to do quite a research AND study, right? thereś no ease thing to do???01:05
c0llisi0njacklake, plus... Use it for some time. Dig around. Take the trial and error approach. I've been using Ubuntu for almost three years now and, I'm no where near an expert (yet) but I have learned tons just from trial and error and Google/Ubuntu Forums research.01:05
c0llisi0nsoundray, DAMN YOU...! Nah, I'm kidding. Thanks anyway.01:06
c0llisi0nThis is quite annoying though... Haven't had to use the tab key in ages it seems. :)01:06
jacklakeIt's very hard fomr me...01:06
mohadibany esata hot pluggers here?01:06
soundrayjacklake: not really. But to solve problems on a computer, like the sound not working, you have to be willing to understand a few new concepts.01:06
sloopyc0llisi0n, i have been using linux since '94 and when i finally get it... they change it on me ;')01:06
soundrayjacklake: that's the same in Linux and all other operating systems01:06
asmo[B]jacklake: ubuntu has become very much a non-terminal operating system, you can do 90% of what you need without using the terminal01:06
c0llisi0njacklake... WELL... I'd say you'd have to suck it up and learn anyway. You won't get anywhere with technology if you can't learn to teach yourself at times.01:06
jacklakeI'm, but not alone. I can't learn just by reading :(01:06

sloopyjacklake, well then learn by reading and then doing...01:07

Krimpethello all, I've been experiencing bizarre reboots on my Inspiron E1405 laptop on hardy... out of nowhere, while doing fairly ordinary stuff like IRCing, the screen'll just go blank and I'm back at the BIOS -_-01:17
mgolischuffo: what driver does it use? maybe try dmesg|grep eth0    there might be some message from the driver01:17
asmo[B]thirdy: I've not actually used it myself, but I had given it a good read over before I suggested it for use, I just use wine as the only windows based apps I care to use are low end games01:17
holyguyver_& this goes to soundray too01:17
abngalActionParsnip: I'll just research more :)01:17
abngalThanks01:17
soundrayActionParsnip: I think you're thinking about recovery mode...01:17

KrimpetI can't find anything in /var/log; http://paste.ubuntu.com/46745/ is the contents of kern.log01:18

droopsta915u think ubuntu installed wrong?01:18
Krimpetdoes anyone have any pointers as to where the problem might lie?01:18
holyguyver_jrib, though I havent tried everything on that page as that page is too dificult for me to fallow.01:18
tinasloopy, unfortunately, not a brand name label...01:18
mgolischniadh: what exactly is the problem? i use MD quite often but i allways use the svn cmdline client to do the svn related stuff01:19
soundraydroopsta915: please put your $HOME/.xsession-errors on a pastebin01:19
soundray!pastebin | droopsta91501:19

Krimpetanyone? :)01:19
darren_Hi small question for every one i have heard mixed reviews for network manager and also wicd for ubuntu, but they all seem to be from last year,has any one hear used the both, and also what one do you think is best01:20
sloopytina, yeah, i am not familiar with the specific types , i just have passing familiarity with them cause my mrs used to be and administrative assistant and had to deal with them01:20
jribholyguyver_: then go through it and ask here about anything that you you don't understand specifically01:20
niadhmgolisch: hell a command line ability to make commits would be a great step forward. Problem is I keep getting a 403 forbidden error, most likely from lack of username and password, but I'm not prompted for it, nor can I seem to make it work by running svn ci --username <my_username> --password <my_password>01:20
holyguyver_jrib, then what is the url again, ubottu didn't say this time.01:20
jrib!fixres > holyguyver_01:20
ubottuholyguyver_, please see my private message01:20
sloopytina, easiest thing would be to see if they have same specs as standard type and use that...01:21
asmo[B]darren_:  I've only used network manager but, it seems to do everything that I need it to... it's hard to answer a question like your's when we don't know what you're trying to do with it...01:21
uffomgolish: i do not find that i type character, maybe you can give som newer driver that is easy to install in .deb package01:22
holyguyver_jrib, Alright during the xorg configure thing my system always freezes on the keyboard part so then I have to close the terminal.01:22
droopsta915sudo: /home/victor/.xsession-errors: command not found01:22
asmo[B]darren_: I would also imagine that not much has changed in either of them over the past year, so you're probably pretty safe with the reviews you were reading01:22
darren_asmo[B],  just connect to internet thinking off giving it a try but dont want to install if there is any problems its just in network manager it does not show my signel strenght in colourd bars01:23
droopsta915soundray: where is that file01:23
=== g0b|in is now known as g06|in
holyguyver_jrib, so I cannot do that one01:23
jribholyguyver_: your system doesn't freeze if you can close the terminal.  What exactly happens?01:24
holyguyver_jrib, the xorgconfigure thing freezes01:24
mgolischuffo: i guess its just a card/chipset that isnt well supported, make sure the tulip driver is not loaded and that it uses dmfe as the driver, if that doesnt work get some other card01:24
asmo[B]darren_: ah can't help you there, I don't use wireless01:24
holyguyver_it stops responding01:24
zazuDo you know a file manager for nokia?01:25
holyguyver_jrib, it stops responding before I can even get to the monitor section.01:25
soundraydroopsta915: I've given you the full location. Just do 'cat $HOME/.xsession-errors'01:25
jribholyguyver_: have you tried hitting tab, space, and enter?  None of those keys have any effect?01:27
Atchicalapotoo01:27
KrimpetI'll try again :) would anyone be able to help me with my intermittent, mysterious reboots? I'm just running a fairly normal installation of hardy on my laptop; it just hard reboots out of nowhere after hours to days of uptime, while running only fairly mundane apps like GNOME, xchat, and emacs, and I'm puzzled as to where to start diagnosing the problem; http://paste.ubuntu.com/46745/ is my kern.log01:28
uffomgolish: thanks for tryng to help but commandline is too messy to me and i wait maye next ubuntu release has automatic problem detector or that tulip thing selector in gui. Shuttleworth makes every ubuntu release easier ad easier01:28
darren_Ok strange thing happening with ubuntu hardy 8.04 I have a built in wireless and a usb wireless the built in shows signel strength in colours, but the usb does not, I have tried the wireless in my girlfriends laptop with the same version of ubuntu and the same drivers both freash installs, and it works perfect, also tried with two other usb wireless and the same problem, also done a fresh install of ubuntu, but same problem, if some one could help its drivi01:29

TrustNoOnemy firefox freezes when i go to this certain porn site01:29
holyguyver_jrib, yes that did fix it, but then all it did was ask me about my keyboard & mouse, not even mentioning my monitor, I found that odd & thought that perhaps I did not pay enough attention, so I went through it a second time & nope, not a single question about my monitor.01:29
Mersaultperfect! thanks lazyweb!01:29
jribholyguyver_: ok, and?01:30
holyguyver_jrib, & so I could not do anythingt for my monitor with that since it never asked a single question about my monitor.01:30
jribholyguyver_: ok, so continue.  The next step is restarting X01:30
droopsta915everyone look at this and tell me why i cant log i as a normal user, i can login into failsafemode. http://paste.ubuntu.com/46746/01:31
holyguyver_jrib, I have restarted x about 50 times today, that obviously has done nothing.01:31

erUSULPhantomas: do "ulimit -u 2000" then from that shell launch the forkbomb01:34
jribholyguyver_: I don't understand what you are doing.  You need to run the autodetect script (dpkg-reconfigure), then not mess with your xorg.conf anymore, then restart X.01:34

hipertrackerCan anybody explain me why Ubuntu 7.10 for "sudo su" does not read /etc/profile nor ~/.profile for local user and for root? It is insane: http://wklej.org/id/4142/02:06
Flannelbronze1052: /etc/apt/sources.list is a file, open it in a text editor02:06
Kevin21it doesnt say anything, jsut goes to a new line if it works?02:06
soundraybronze1052: it's a file. You can open it with 'sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list' and then type in the lines you're supposed to add.02:06
hwildehipertracker, maybe it doesn't behave like you expect bc that cmd is deprecated?02:07

dmsupermanHow can I add myself to a group from the command line? The group I want to add myself to doesn't show up in the GUI users & groups editor02:07
hwilde!sudo | hipertracker02:07
ubottuhipertracker: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome), or !kdesu (KDE)02:07
soundrayhipertracker: 'sudo su' is deprecated. 'sudo -i' should be sane02:07
soundray!rootshell | hipertracker02:08
ubottuhipertracker: Using !sudo with single commands is preferable in most circumstances. However, if you really need a root shell, use « sudo -i » (other variants of this commands are redundant and/or potentially dangerous)02:08

hipertrackerer, I don't get it02:09
soundrayhipertracker: no, only 'sudo su' is deprecated02:09
hwilde!root | hipertracker02:09
ubottuhipertracker: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo02:09
bronze1052do i just add the provided lines to the end of the sources.list  file?  and what does adding these lines do exactly?02:09
ninjaI apt-get update in a terminal as sudo , and there is no change, still can't get any updates02:10
soundraybronze1052: it lists the sites that your installation uses to get new and updated packages (repositories)02:10
hipertrackerwhat about this? http://wklej.org/id/4143/02:10
bronze1052ooohhhh!!!! THAT MAKES SENSE!!!02:11
dmsupermanFlannel: If I add myself to www-data, and www-data is the group that owns the folder, and the permissions are 0755, should I not then be able to edit the file inside? All of those permissions are recursive, btw02:11
bronze1052  is  http://ubuntu.cafuego.net/   a safe source to add to my list?02:11
soundraybronze1052: when you've changed it, run 'sudo apt-get update' to get the package lists from those repos. Then your system will know which of its installed packages have updates available.02:12
bazhangbronze1052, why do you need that 3rd party repo02:12
soundraybronze1052: cafuego is a trusted community member02:12
Flanneldmsuperman: 755 means you can read and execute, not write.02:12
bronze1052my dell wireless 1390 mini-pci card  won't show any wireless signals coming from anywhere;  so i'm assuming there's something wrong with the driver02:13

dmsupermanFlannel: Alright, perhaps I'm simply mistaken. Do you know if apache has, for some reason, stopped using www-data as it's user in hardy?02:14

juanis anybody else having problems with http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ ?02:29
Flannelbronze1052: You have no root password (root account is locked).  sudo uses your user password.02:29
bastiwith sudo you execute a command as root02:29
Kevin21So i'm in my /usr/src/ folder, and i'm trying to do my HDA, and its asking my to use the linux kernel file02:30

bronze1052i've heard that using the  sudo   command is dangerous, especially if some sneaky website faq  is asking you to use it;  is there a general rule of thumb to avoid trouble when using the sudo command,  and when taking people's advice that advise using the sudo command?02:39

Loganhoup?02:40
Jay^i think u can do it with dpkg02:40
EruditeHermithey, is there a way to reinstall every package on the machine?02:40
Flannelbronze1052: sudo allows you to make changes to your system (at the system level), so anything you do with sudo, you ought to understand.02:40
didohow can i change it by command line02:40
anonymousTJay^: like one that can be divided into 3 and another that can't02:40
jribdido: you can't.  You need to reinstall02:41
Flannelbronze1052: a malicious command using sudo can mess the entire system up (instead of just messing up your files)02:41
bazhangdido, you cannot02:41
bazhangdido, full reinstall02:41
Jay^well i don't think linux can see a windows volume in the exnteded partition02:41
juandido: im having a similar problem atm as far as i can tell its not possible, you can keep your /home if its in a seperate partition though02:41
jimcooncatdido, you can back up your installed program list with apt (somehow), reinstall, then have your apps added back in02:42
favro!clone02:42
ubottuTo replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type « dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages », move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type « sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade » - See also !automate02:42

bazhangdido, this is not the chat channel; see #ubuntu-offtopic02:50

bazhangTimberwolf5578, that should be posted in #ubuntu-offtopic not here.03:26
bringatowelKevin_, that is possible, but it would probably result in a different problem (you would connect and only see a simple black and white sort of desktop)03:27
bringatowelKevin_, are you sure the server is starting up properly? when you run vnc4server on the remote machine, are there any errors?03:27
enosI'm trying to setup my pc to work with UltraMixer but when I play a file I don't get any sound; According the preferences it shows its using OSS (I know that mplayer uses "pulse" and I think so does everything else in my system) so how do I get Pulse to work with Ultramixer? Any clues, ideas, are highly appreciated, thanks!03:28
wineois there a way to boot to a regular command line from the live CD?03:28
Kevin_bringatowel, ... *bangs head on wall* I feel like the biggest dunce of the century... Of course vnc4server won't just run on its own... >.< I have to set up vnc4server to run >.< *embarassed*03:28
silk_hey i got some errors and "Fails" while updating from dapper to hardy, is there anything to be worried about before i reboot?03:29
Kevin_bringatowel, oops wrong emoticon03:29
Flannelwineo: ctrl-alt-f103:29
danbh_intrepidsilk_: try running sudo apt-get install -f03:29
wineoFlannel: from the boot menu thing right?03:30
Flannelwineo: After you've chosen to boot the liveCD03:30
Flannelwineo: You can't just boot to a CLI03:30
bringatowelKevin_, haha well, good then that is easy to fix ^_^03:30
dstrbdfr1can i get some help with changing the theme of pidgin i got a tar file off of gnomelook.org but i dont know what to do with it03:30
wineothanks03:30
hwildedstrbdfr1, go into pidgin tools and load the theme03:31
dstrbdfr1hwilde i dont see that option03:31
Kevin_bringatowel, I thought that it would be started by xinetd whenever I connected to my server on a certain port... obviously that was wrong... I think I know what info I'm missing now... To Google!03:31
wineoFlannel: whats the reverse of ctrl alt f1?03:32
Flannelwineo: ctrl-alt-f7 to get back to the GUI03:32
wineoFlannel: thank you03:33
bringatowelKevin_, sounds good, it would be nice but im not sure how to arrange that, usually just SSH into the remote machine and start it manually with the vnc4server comman, plus -geometry or whatever other options are needed :)03:33
gaintsurawhere would I find what bluetooth device I have in my system? lspci is not showing it03:34
dstrbdfr1hwilde can you clarify load the theme i dont see that option under tools03:34
Kevin_bringatowel, ok a perl script can do all that for me :D03:34
hwildedstrbdfr1, tools preferences themes add03:34
Winston_SmithVTCan anyone point me in the direction of some information on setting up and securing SSH?03:35
Kevin_bringatowel, oh sorry one more thing I wasn't clear on, from the guide I'm using (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=122402) there is no indication as to whether or not kdm itself has to be started before I use vnc. What do you think?03:35
jrib!ssh > Winston_SmithVT03:35
ubottuWinston_SmithVT, please see my private message03:35
bringatowelKevin_, yes indeed, usually not many options are needed, i only use -geometry in case im connecting from my laptop (1024x768) or desktop (128x768)03:35
bringatowelKevin_, my understanding is that you need to start KDM from ~/.vnc/xstartup03:36

Kevin_bringatowel, ... ok i see thanks :)03:36

bobertdosdroopsta915: You must set your desktop to use at least four virtual horizontal desktops.03:39
bringatowelKevin_, hmm that is not exactly what i did to configure vnc, but you know there are more than 1 way to do it, in xfce for example you can just add "startxfce4 &" to the end of ~/.vnc/xstartup03:39

Guest57542any 1 want to help me out with my tablet pc04:23
vocxFlang, you run "make" to compile, but then you need "sudo make install" so it can copy the compiled module and executables to the appropriate system directories04:23
LanlostHey, can anyone tell me of any program that lets you record a video stream (from a tv tuner card) such as MythTV? .. but.. er.. not MythTV?04:23
sixth_danbh_intrepid:  when i try to load the hardy cd it gets stuck also04:23
jigpbazhang : ahhh what is that?how to download that file then?04:23
LanlostI'm looking for something bare bones.. MythTV didn't work for some reason..e ven though I installed it with Synaptic04:24
sixth_danbh_intrepid: i am currently on dapper livecd04:24

MrX_hrlp! am $tuck in 800x600 mode. xorg.conf is default settings...any ideas any1?04:24
danbh_intrepidsixth_: did you check the hardy cd?04:24
Lanlostso basically a barebones PVR.. All I need it to do is record.. I don't need to be able to watch live tv and pause rewind and fast forward and such..04:24
sixth_danbh_intrepid: check how?04:24
Lanlostif it does that.. I suppose that's fine however04:24
aorthr33How do I keep a drive from appearing on my desktop.  I installed HArdy Heron, and afterwards, I installed a second HD that I'd used as a data drive on an XP syste (thus NTFS formatted).   However, it drops an icon on the desktop for all users - - how do I get rid of the icon on everyone's desktop space?04:24
sixth_danbh_intrepid: the update i did from dapper to hardy i did it online because i think the hardy cd is disfective04:25
vocxFlang, if you are using the ndiswrapper that comes with the distribution I think you need to install only "ndiswrapper-utils" instead of compiling with make. But if you run make and get lots of errors, maybe because you don't have kernel headers.04:25
Guest57542hi04:25
dlozariehi guys. I need some help. I want to uninstall LAMP from my system, and I thought I'd done so before, but every time I update something a mySQL window pops up. wondering if you guys could help me :)04:25
danbh_intrepidsixth_: i guess, maybe its too much trouble04:25
Joeseph_Zeus_: With the ":" it can't find the "tcp target server" and without the ":" it says there is "No such device or address"04:25
FlangVocx - Kernel headers? BTW this is ndiswrapper 1.53 i downloaded (on my win xp machine)..didnt know ndiswrapper was included. I'04:25
Flangm completely clueless04:26
jigpbazhang zelrikriando : is this flv? flash movie? http://ftp.nhlue.edu.tw/pfsense/tutorials/carp/carp-cluster-new.htm04:26
danbh_intrepidsixth_: if you can boot your system, and get to the login screen, and NOT login, and your system is ok, then I have a suggestion.  Can you do that?04:26
bazhangjigp, try with wget04:26
zelrikriandojigp, it's swf04:26

danbh_intrepidMrX_: you should use the hardware manager first, before you try envyng04:27
ibkanatI need some help setting up my pda with ubuntu ibex where should I go?04:27
ibkanat8.1004:27
vocxFlang, ndiswrapper is a kernel module "ndiswrapper.ko" somewhere with other modules, but to use it you need the "utils", which are not included and must install. However if you get the ndiswrapper from the project page, you get everything.04:27
Aval0nto change sshd port you just edit the sshd_config file correct?04:27
MrX_...nvidia-xconfig crashes and wipes xorg.conf to default04:27
bazhang!ibex | ibkanat04:27
ubottuibkanat: Alpha Software: Intrepid Ibex is the code name for Ubuntu 8.10, due October 2008 - #ubuntu+1 for discussion | Warning lots of broken software between now and October!04:27
Aval0ncause i did that and changed it to 2215 and now I can't connect on that port04:28
danbh_intrepidsixth_: can you do it?  You would then use ctrl+alt+f1 to get to a terminal, and run a command04:28
FlangVocx - how do i install utils04:28
sixth_danbh_intrepid: okay, what command?04:28
tuxapt-get install red-hat?04:28
tuxyes or no04:28

MrX_danbh_intrepid: that won't work either, it downloads drivers, but never uses them04:28
Joesephwell, since I have no other advice. I give up for today.04:28
jigpbazhang zelrikriando : cannot be play04:28

dlozariehi guys. I need some help. I want to uninstall LAMP from my system, and I thought I'd done so before, but every time I update something a mySQL window pops up. wondering if you guys could help me04:29
danbh_intrepidsixth_: sudo apt-get install -f && sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade04:29
danbh_intrepidsixth_: thats actually a series of commands, but something like that04:30
vocxFlang, install "build-essential" and "kernel-headers" to get the development files you need to compile.  If you don't want to compile just install the "ndiswrapper-utils-1.9" package and it should be ready to use, test with "ndiswrapper -v"04:30
MrX_danbh_intrepid: I've really tried alot and have no workable answer. I've messed with the xorg.conf files a lot, nothing... tried different drivers, tried to get the drivers to match the build kernel... nothing, installed removed, rebuilt this and that,04:30
zelrikriandojigp, wget http://ftp.nhlue.edu.tw/pfsense/tutorials/carp/carp-cluster-new.swf04:30

vocxFlang, do you now anything about the Ubuntu package manager and how to use "sudo apt-get install <etcetera>" ?04:32
danbh_intrepidMrX_: did you try the hardware drivers manager first?04:32

Shindogot04:32
MrX_danbh_intrepid: yes with varying results ranging from just reseting the xorg.conf to blank screen of darkness04:33
sixth_danbh_intrepid: i will do that, but before, is there any quick way to install grub from this live cd before i reboot? i would like to run windows if it wont work instead of livecd04:33
danbh_intrepidsixth_: grub isnt installed already?04:33
sixth_danbh_intrepid:  i dont think04:33
vocxFlang, it would be wise to investigate on those topics a little.    Can't you plug an ethernet cable to the laptop, so you can at least download stuff there directly?04:33
sixth_danbh_intrepid: it doesnt ask me another on boot04:33
StanVsguys what was that vmware specific distro ubuntu had04:34
StanVsit had a specific name04:34
StanVsvelk or whatever04:34
StanVsit was something short04:34
FlangVocx - yes, I can do that (but it will disconnect me from this machine and irc)..what would be the best thing for me to do after plugging in the ethernet to that machine?04:34
danbh_intrepidsixth_: usually grub is always installed, and if you have windows, it prompts you which OS you would like to boot04:34
sixth_danbh_intrepid: well, it doesnt :P is there any easy way to install it now?04:35
deeperrorquick q...i'm online with wireless but I don't see the nm-applet in the system tray area by the clock.  Is there some way to get that back?  I've tried rebooting as well just doesn't show up any clues?04:35
amenadois *.pnm something a non linux user can use to view a scanned image or I have to have it on a different extention? (for windows)04:35
dlozariewhat was the terminal command to uninstall a program?04:36
amenadodlozarie-> if you used synaptic before, sudo  apt-get remove -purge paackagename04:36
vocxFlang, get some packages run: "sudo aptitude install build-essential linux-headers ndiswrapper-utils-1.9"    but since you know very little, I would advice opening the package manager and investigating the system before doing anything else.04:36

vocxTooR4u, Did you install "build-essential" ?  I don't program in C, so I can't tell if you need additional libraries, but if your code has windows.h or something like that, it most probably won't work, and you would need to port those parts to the linux way of doing sockets.04:44

danbh_intrepidMrX_: what do you mean, they wont load?04:45
TheMaxzillaIt's openSUSE os, and I'm pretty clueless.04:45
sixth_danbh_intrepid: is there any specific command to "activate" it? i just never saw it running on bootup04:46
amirmanhey, i have a quick question, i'm installing ubuntu on the wife's laptop (she finally agreed to try it for a week, i'm doing the manual install because i need to preserve other partitions on the drive, i've selected the partition, do i choose '/' as the mount point? also if i wish to set 20 GB for root and the rest for home do i make the partitions and then set the 20GB part's mountpoint as '/' and the other as '/home'?04:46
MrX_danbh_intrepid: It downloads the drivers, installs them, but never loads them04:46
bringatowelTheMaxzilla, how can you install openSUSE if you are already running Ubuntu? if you want to set up dual-boot, you should burn the ISO to cd and boot from it04:46
danbh_intrepidMrX_: well, you can check your xorg.conf file, just change nv to nvidia       thats it04:46
MrX_danbh_intrepid: (little dot stays red) and it does nothing04:47
vocxTheMaxzilla, you can't just install OpenSUSE like that, you need to burn... well bringatowel was faster04:47
TheMaxzillaIt won't burn from CDs right.04:47
bringatowellol04:47
TheMaxzillaAny other options?04:47
bringatowelTheMaxzilla, what do you mean it won't burn04:47
danbh_intrepidsixth_: maybe sudoo update-grub        but again, I don't know much about grub04:47
TheMaxzillaIt farts out an error04:47
bringatowelamirman, usually you are fine using "/" as the mount point, you don't need seperate / and /home partitions unless you have some specific reason04:48
MrX_danbh_intrepid: tried that too. after restart it drops down to low-res mode and tells me I need to pick either an new configuration, default, or backup04:48
deeperrorgaintsura, found it....had to right click on the panel and add the notification area back to the panel and they reappeared...thanks!04:48
TheMaxzillaWhen I burn it from k3b, it burns it to a DVD-RW and spits out an error04:48
bringatowelTheMaxzilla, can you burn other cds okay?04:48
TheMaxzillaNo04:48
gaintsuragood one deeperror =)04:49
amirmanbringatowel: i just heard it was faster, but i guess i'm fine with having just one partition for ubuntu and who knows what other problems that might cause04:49
* danopia heard someone mention nvidia04:49
amirmanbringatowel: so do i choose / as the mountpoint?04:49
bringatowelTheMaxzilla, well it sounds like there is some problem with your burner then04:49
prohnaanyone know why reconfiguring xserver only lets me configure the keyboard04:49
prohnaand stops before it gets to the video part04:49
MrX_danbh_intrepid: I've updated the system, checked for broken, orphaned, missing packages04:49
vocxamirman, you can create the separate partition in you want, there is nothing wrong with that.04:49
danbh_intrepidMrX_: did it install nvidia-glx-legacy?04:50
amirmanvocx: would i run into any weirdness?04:50
bringatowelamirman, it's not faster in any way, the purpose is for multi-user systems where files might be stored on many different hard drives. the default option "/" is fine :)04:50
MTecknologyI need some help with amanda. I have it backing things up - but I can't figure out how to restore files. I want to restore them to a temp dir i have my my system04:50

amirmanthanks bringatowel and vocx04:50
Razerto resize my ubuntu partition I would have to use a liveCD right?04:50
quaalawrong04:51
vocxamirman, no, in fact, it might be useful if you want to wipe out Ubunte later. The root partition may be lost but not /home which is where you data may be.04:51
Jordan_URazer: Yes04:51
RazerJordan_U, ty04:51
bringatowelvocx, it won't hurt but why make things more complicated?04:51
Jordan_URazer: np04:51
danbh_intrepidMrX_: make sure that compiz is off, and that you have nvdia-glx-legacy, and not nvidia-glx04:51
mnhow can I go from 8.04.1 to 8.10 alpha 5?04:51
vocxbringatowel, how is it complicated to have two partitions? Talk about having each directory in a partition, that maybe too much.04:52
amirmanvocx: ok, good idea, where should i position my swap space? in between the root and home partitions?04:52
TooR4uvocx, thank you ..04:52
Jordan_Umn: #ubuntu+1 for intrepid04:52
bringatowelvocx, 2 > 1 =P04:52
MrX_danbh_intrepid: do I need to remove compiz? or just turn off.04:52
danbh_intrepidMrX_: just turn it off04:52
vocxamirman, it doesn't matter. Swap space is just swap. In fact you don't need a partition as swap memory, swap memory could also be a single file. But that is a little more complicated. So you are fine.04:54

BitWraithFloodBot1, I'm sorry to hear that you cannot love.05:14
danbh_intrepidsixth_: I think you have a bad install, plain and simple.  I would just reinstall, making sure the cd is good05:15
ArodonGnea: alright, that makes sense. I'll see what I can work out using the howtos for wired->wireless sharing instead. Thanks05:15
sixth_danbh_intrepid: the problem now is that i cannot go back to windows, grub isnt installed :/05:15
GneaBitWraith: please do not do that.05:15
vocxBitWraith, what?05:16
Kabakaremu: Yeah, at least on Windows.05:16
BitWraithGnea, Ian made me do it. I won't do it again.05:16
danbh_intrepidsixth_: I would still try to get a good hardy cd, and install that.  Grub should have been installed...05:16
GneaArodon: oh - yes, it can be done. didn't realize you wanted a wired/wireless through the laptop05:16
remuKabaka: not on ubuntu?05:16
Kabakaremu: I don't remember. I haven't taken a Skype call on Ubuntu for a while.05:17
Kabakaremu: Why not just try and see? :-\05:17
NaoFaloInglesbringatowel,  i look after that option at system > preferences > appearence but isnt there, could it be at gconf-editor?05:17
remuKabaka: cause none of my contacts are online, lol, and I need to test this out by tomorrow, lol05:17
ArodonGnea: that'll work fine, yes. I was curious if it would be possible to pull it off with a single card though (it would be a little more convenient in my case, but no showstopper)05:17
bringatowelNaoFaloIngles, yes it is in gconf-editor05:17
GneaArodon: i don't see why not05:18
NaoFaloInglesbringatowel, ok i will take a look and see if i can find it05:18
Kabakaremu: Want me to give ya a video call then? I'm sure it's not documented anywhere. The Linux version of Skype is kind of crap.05:18

xessGnea: yeah. I do not have a DVD burner.05:19

xessKabaka: Would that not leave me with this distro still on here?05:21
vocxbrolly81, the ultimate troubleshooting is to read the source code and hack it. Have you tried from the command line "alsamixer" does it work?05:21
Kabakaxess: Oh, you want to wipe out the contents of the drive with the ISO on it, too?05:21
hubarquestion, when I open appearance, trying to adjust my theme, all of the themes don't have previews, they have a huge question mark inside instead.05:21

remuKabaka: yes i am05:23
mEck0bringatowel: will check it, thx05:24
vocxamirman, it doesn't matter. It is some strange convention invented decades ago that you can only have 4 priamary partitions, or 3 primary, and 1 extended, and insede the extended as much as logical partitions as you like (with some limitations) So my advice is choose primary partitions and the last one choose extended, and then create the logical drives.05:24
bringatowelbrolly81, if you are troubleshooting and have no idea what to do, probably here or ubuntuforums.org is the best place to ask05:24
brolly81i tried using it and does not really help. its to general05:24
xessKabaka: No the second drive is full of music. I would like to keep all that. I was hoping that I could some how place the iso in there and do a reboot that would bring me to the installer and I could install the new distro on the system primary drive which houses the current distro.05:24
hubarAnyone knows??????05:25
amirmanvocx: i don't even see extended as an option, would it be ok to just set it as logical?05:25
bringatowelbrolly81, try asking your question...05:25
sixth_how do i see what linux-image version i have installed on hardy?05:25
Hellowhubar: generally, when you change a option in your theme, the preview changes05:25

vocxbringatowel, Ubuntu flash is adobe's. It's a non-free product. Or am I missing something?05:37

penGnea, gimp?? they would know?05:39
Gneabringatowel: which package did you install, exactly?05:39
vocxbringatowel, how can you know it is different since it's not free software. Do they have a statement on this somewhere in their site'05:39

mynameistux_it used to work05:41

mynameistux_...05:42
brolly81sorry hold on  i just saw it05:42
bringatowelGnea, the problem that flash-nonfree caused for me was a sound problem, it might not occur on all systems, but the version on adobe's website seems to work for everyone05:42
RazerGnea, yes it does05:42
mynameistux_I can't play any mp3 or ogg files, when I try it says Failed to connect stream: Invalid argument05:42

Lymiesi cannot use synaptic05:43
bringatowelRazer, what flash package did you install?05:43
Gneabringatowel: i've heard of dodgy issues with it from other people, so it seems to be a random issue. hopefully we'll get version 10 sometime this year :)05:43
Lymiesthe applicatoin is being entirely unresponsive besides the file, edit, package, setting, etc dropdowns05:44

Gun_Smokebrolly81, It looks like you went to System>Preferences>Sound  Is that correct?05:44
RazerGnea, yes I have05:44
sanassarHey guys05:44
bringatowelGnea, yes hopefully, i have heard that 8.10 will feature improved flash support :)05:44
sanassarI am compiling stuff.05:44

mynameistux_bash: /dev/dsp: Device or resource busy05:45
mynameistux_ok05:45
bringatowelRazer, what is the package name? if you installed anything besides "flash-nonfree" then uninstall that and install the flash-nonfree package05:45
Gneabringatowel: that's the thing i like about ubuntu, too - the releases have become much more often05:45
dataspywhat is the mount point for a sata drive , hda1?05:45
brolly81http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=2s7vr6q&s=405:45
Razerbringatowel, where do I check that, I'm pretty sure I did05:45
bringatowelRazer, if you already installed flash-nonfree, i would try uninstalling that, and downloading the linux version off adobe's website05:45
Gneamynameistux_: you'll need to find the offending process that's hogging the soundcard and kill it05:45
Gun_Smokebrolly81, It looks like you went to System>Preferences>Sound  Is that correct?05:45
bringatowelRazer, in Add/Remove or Synaptic05:46
andresjmmm... so it turns out i set dhcp-range to 192.168.2.10,192.168.0.100 instead of 192.168.2.10,192.168.2.100 u see the 0-2? very nice.05:46
brolly81yes05:46
andresjhahaha05:46
mynameistux_any ideas as to how I can do that, its a HD sound card so you know05:46

redlegionlate, apologies, it appears to reside in ~/.mozilla/firefox/05:54
vocxsanassar, nope. Did you get the source from repositories or directly from them?05:54
bringatowellimgong, what package? if it is in a .tar you should start by extracting it05:54
limgonghuzzah for xk00105:54
Razerbringatowel, I'm not allowed to do naything to the file05:54

vocxsanassar, try changing the device to ALSA or the other ones in the preferences and audio options05:59
sanassarThat is what I do when I freshly install Ubuntu.05:59
sanassarCause it is lower.05:59
sanassarK.05:59
bringatowelRazer, there is just 1 more, you have to run the installer, go to the command line and go to the directory "cd install_flash_player_9_linux/" then "./flashplayer-installer"06:00
limgongwould the virutalbox i am looking for be called virtualbox ose?06:00
bringatowellimgong, yep06:00
kosharilimgong the ose one is the open source version,06:00
limgongabsolutely lovely06:01
limgongthank you in extensively06:01
bringatowelits a breeze :)06:01
Razerbringatowel, bash: cd: install_flash_player_9_linux/: No such file or directory ?06:01
sanassarvocx:didn't do much06:01
vocxlimgong, that version, the OSE version, has no support for USB, so beware. You can install the other version just as easily. Get the debian package from their site.06:01
pjotrlimgong: virtualbox-ose doesn't have all the features as the one you can donwload from Sun06:01
bringatowelRazer, you have to include the path where you saved & extracted it, like "cd /home/Razer/downloads/install_flash_player_9_linux" or whatever06:02
limgongoh goodness pjotr you have saved me quite a bit of trouble06:02
kosharilimgong the precompiled version is also a litlte old,06:02
sanassarvocx:Any other suggestions?06:02
sanassarvocx:Changing everything to ALSA helped a bit.06:02
kosharilimgong however i use the OSE version and its fine if you dont need usb06:02
functionofxyneed help: memory seems to have gone down the drain. buffers are eating 400/768MB06:02

limgongyes is there a virutal box that does have usb functionality06:05
waankoshari, ok to be specific I'm using vbox to install a guest operating system, but when the physical memory gets really low vbox will abort, I've solved this temporarily by reducing the guest os ram amount.06:05

dmsupermanI have an s-video output port on my nvidia 7900 gs ko. Right now, I'm using both dvi out ports on it, but I want to (temporarily) use the s-video out to my tv. However, when I disable one dvi port then enable the s-video port, it crashes X. How can I see what went wrong, or is this a common problem with an easy fix?06:07
limgongah i see06:07
dmsuperman!svideo06:07
koshariwaan winXP will use a pagefile that will be on the virtual disk06:07
ubottuSorry, I don't know anything about svideo06:07
chubs_functionofxy, buffers are "eating" 30 mb06:07
functionofxychubs_, buffers/cache06:07
koshariwaan however when it comes to ram you cant gt something for nothing06:07
chubs_right. so nothings eating memory06:07
vocxwaan I really think you should have at least 1 GB RAM to start messing with virtualization. At least so that it isn't too slow.06:08
waankoshari, it's only a problem during the installer (which is is past now) and the memory has spiked back up to a large free amount06:08
chubs_functionofxy, http://virtualthreads.blogspot.com/2006/02/understanding-memory-usage-on-linux.html06:08
pjotrlimgong: read the FAQs06:08
vocxdmsuperman, maybe you can reaview the X logs or the kernel logs for clues06:09
waanvocx, yeah I will get more ram for this notebook (256mb currently, shared) but I was just seeing if there was an alterlative06:09
Razerwhat's the highest directory I can search in?06:09
limgongpjotr, haha i have been here before and they seem to suggest the vmware but i may not have read too deeply although it seems full compatiblity with zune and linux with wine hasnt happened yet06:09
Razeris it /home?06:09
waankoshari, thanks for the help, i'll just use low ram amounts for vbox and it should be ok06:09
functionofxychubs_, so why do i have 7MB free?06:10
vocxlimgong, just a warning, if the linux kernel doesn't accept your device, no amount of virtualization programs will work with it. It all comes down to the linux kernel.06:10
bringatowelRazer, sorry i guess the one from Add/Remove is the only choice, not sure why it was not working...06:10
functionofxychubs_, switching/loading apps wakes forever06:10
functionofxytakes*06:10
pjotrlimgong: http://www.virtualbox.org/06:10
Razerbringatowel, no problem06:10
SurfnKidhi06:11
chubs_functionofxy, perhaps you're on a slow machine? it's hard to help with no solid examples. If you read that you'd understand that most of that is cached memory06:11
SurfnKidis there a live boot cd with a virus removal tool?06:11
waankoshari, anyway it's more a vbox bug, since it was trying to use more physical memory than the system had06:11
bringatowelRazer, the highest directory is "/" but all your personal files should be inside /home/Razer which is the same as ~/06:11
dmsupermanvocx: Where does it keep error logs at?06:11
koshariwaan well that will do it06:11
chubs_in fact the gnome system monitor might show you something completely different because of how it is computed06:11
dmsupermanvocx: It even crashed X just to disable my right monitor that time06:11
functionofxychubs_, but i'm not running anything that would require that much cache. i've shut everything down so im just running xchat and gnome06:12
Razerbringatowel,  I'm just trying to do a ctr+f, i don't think I can choose / through the GUI06:12
vocxdmsuperman, there is /var/log  but you can access important log from System > Administration > System logs06:12
waankoshari, do you happen to know the minimum ram required for intrepid?06:12
koshariwaan otherwise you could disable a few services in the guest06:12
limgongpjotr apperently the zune uses mtp storage format and uses the opensource libmtp library in some major part so it should work on linux however the have the thing so damn encrypted that its just pain and tear to get it to work06:12
bringatowelRazer, sure you can, but it might not be useful, depends what you are searching for06:13
chubs_functionofxy, you're not understanding what a cache is, it's more efficient to keep the larger programs in memory until that space is needed06:13
koshariwaan  i suspect 8.10 would be about the same as 8.0406:13
Razerbringatowel, *.iso06:13
waankoshari, yeah i'll do that, but installing the os is where the ram usage goes through the roof06:13
bringatowelRazer, if its something you downloaded, it is most likely somwhere within ~/06:13
Razerbringatowel, k06:13
limgongalthough in my noobieness what i may have said may sound silly06:13
waankoshari, anyway I'll work it out. Thanks again06:14
Razerbringatowel, what's ~/ ?06:14
functionofxychubs_, but they're not open. their processes have been ended. why am i holding ram space for them? its slowing me down immensely.06:14
limgongthat is your :c drive ish thing06:14
koshariwaan you could use an alternative install disk for ubuntu as a guest06:14
bringatowelRazer, ~/ is just a shortcut for /home/Razer (or whatever username you logged in as)06:14
functionofxychubs_, can i mandate that the cache be smaller?06:14
jamfishHello...does anybody know how to add gnome launchers to a liveCD's desktop?06:14
Razerbringatowel, I'm having some freezing problems06:14
sanassarBack06:15
Razerbringatowel, almost as bad as Vista :P06:15
bringatowelRazer, from what? if you are running a search it may be quite resource intensive06:15
koshari jamfish it would be the same as an installed OS however you would lose the setting on shutdow06:15
sanassarvocx...06:15
Razerbringatowel, I'm only on a 10 GIB partition06:15
=== passwd is now known as blanko
bringatowelRazer, that will mean the search will complete faster, but it is still using a lot of disk I/O until its finished06:16
Razerbringatowel, I opened too many file browsers06:16
=== blanko is now known as blankimaN
bringatowelRazer, hehe well that doesn't help, but probably that is not the main problem (unless you have like 200 open)06:17
jamfishkoshari: I'm trying to make a customized Ubuntu CD, so that's why I'm asking. So far I haven't found a solution, and I'm pressed for time. I need it to be loaded each time the liveCD is loaded06:17
bringatowelRazer, if the search is still running that will eat up disk bandwidth, slowing down the whole system which needs the disk for swap usage06:17
Razerbringatowel, about 10 :D06:17
Razerbringatowel, I see what i did there, I opened a sub option so all the other ones froze up06:18
bringatowelRazer, the only time that would cause a system slow down is if there are a huge number of files or subdirectories, or it is like a bunch of pictures and thumbnails are being generated06:18
kosharijamfish you need to use a specific tool like Reconstructor06:19
bringatowelRazer, hmm well that might have tied up some system resources, you can use the system monitor to keep an eye on things06:19
jamfishkoshari: I am, but, it doesn't have such an option within the program...the only way I could do it is to make my own module...which so far hasn't been working06:20
Razerbringatowel, I'm having an even more annoying problem, when I connect an MTP device I can't see the folder it defaults to but my music player detects all the songs06:20
TrustNoOnei have an .iso image that is a video file, how can i view it in linux without burning it? I want to have a virtual drive mount it...06:21
bringatowelRazer, try searching google or the forums, i have no clue what MTP is :D06:21
kosharijamfish UCK may be another option http://lichota.net/~krzysiek/projects/ubuntu-livecd-customization/06:21
Razerbringatowel, Media Transfer Protocol, It's Microsoft that's what I think is the problem :(06:22
bringatowelTrustNoOne, mount -o loop -t iso9660 file.iso /mnt/test06:22
TrustNoOnebringatowel, thx ill try that06:22
bringatowelRazer, well ill agree with that! :D06:22
JairunCalothRazer: I haven't messed with MTP in a while, and I don't know if the ubuntu repos are still hopelessly out of date on them. But I had to compile them from source to get my zen to work06:22
Razerbringatowel, still no idea huh?06:22
andresjhey anybody know if there's a way, from the dhcp server, to make all clients re-request an IP? (as if the lease had been expired)06:22
bringatowelTrustNoOne, there are some GUI programs to do that as well ifyou prefer06:22
bringatowelRazer, never heard of MTP before :/06:23
andresjand rmmbr; trust no one06:23
RazerJairunCaloth, I barely know what complie means so I'm SOL huh06:23
TrustNoOnewhat would be the name of one program06:23
sanassarDoes anyone know how to use zenity --progress to actually get progress of something06:23
JairunCalothRazer: Are you wanting to open up a folder and drag and drop songs in?06:23
Razerbringatowel, it's microsoft designed firmware for non apple mp3 players06:23
JairunCalothbecause I don't think that's possible06:23
iceswordRazer: compile =source code to excutable06:23
bringatowelandresj, yes it depends on the dhcp server, don't recall the command for any offhand though06:24
RazerJairunCaloth, I just want to see themusic folder under /media06:24
ASrockis there a way i can download a package of the latest updates for ubuntu so i dont have to redownload them each time i install ubuntu06:24
kizzakizza06:24
andresjbringatowel: oh there is!? oh wow i didnt think it was possible :)   I'm using dnsmasq, if that helps... :D06:24
JairunCalothRazer: I've found the best thing for dealing with MTP is amarok06:25
andresjhow would u call it? to google it06:25
bringatowelandresj, yup there are many, although there are a couple main ones, i think you want to check the documentation for whichever you use06:25
RazerJairunCaloth, it's not the music player detection it's linux not recognizing the device because it's not like a regular flash drive06:25
kizzahi06:26
Sara22hello.  I am very new to linux.  installed linux and wireless driver was having a lot of problems.  So I went and bought USB network adapter (model wusb54gsc). does anyone know if that will work for me06:26
JairunCalothRazer: exactly, which I think means you can't manage like a regualr flash drive06:26
kizzaim a noob at lynex can someone help06:26
koshariASrock the packages are stored on your /var/cach/apt dir, you can make a personal repo, or a aptonCD or even use apt-cacher06:26
bringatowelTrustNoOne, gmount-iso06:26
TrustNoOnebringatowel, thank you06:26
JairunCaloth*manage it like*06:26
bringatowelandresj, you can check which server you have using Synaptic and search for dhcp, then see what packages are already installed06:27
andresjbringatowel: mm... yeah, I can't find a lot of documentation for dnsmasq... seems like there is no way06:27
RazerJairunCaloth, so all I can do is :(06:27
andresjbringatowel: I use dnsmasq06:27
JairunCalothSara22: You're best bet is to check a hardware compatibility list06:27

=== Fenrir is now known as Jesus
Sara22JairunCaloth: how do i do that06:27
kizzahi sara06:28
JairunCalothRazer: well I like amarok because it's pretty effective for manageing the media on it, and it will let you see whats on there, take stuff off, and put other stuff on06:28
bringatowelandresj, have you tried "man dnsmasq"?06:28
andresjbringatowel: yes, I'm reading the online version; but I can only find how to run the program; not how to send a signal06:29
andresjbringatowel: do you know how the process of expiring all leases is called; or how it works?06:30
RazerJairunCaloth, cool, I'll look it up then06:30

TrustNoOnebringatowel, the iso i mounted is all vob files (for a dvd) how can I play them without having to individually click each one? (like in windows, WMP would do that)06:33
bringatowelandresj, not exactly, you will probably have to google around, could you just restart the program?06:34
bobertdosSara22: Somewhere in the wiki, there is a hardware compatibility list. I will say, in general, that USB adapters tend to be finickey, but hopefully Linksys is among one of the more supported brands. Frequently, the best thing to do is use XP drivers with ndisgtk (a graphical frontend for ndiswrapper).06:34

TrustNoOnebringatowel, but I use totem for that so it's not a huge deal :p06:41

waantony_, what's the problem?06:52
tony_Via the "Monitor res settings" (ubuntu 8.10)06:52
|unjustice|Gun_Smoke: it didn't stop working after an update/upgrade06:52
tony_its reading 2560x1024 (i decided to see what a 42" screen was like06:52
dominic_Hello ubuntuers06:52
chubs_bobertdos, i think most people do :P06:52
andresjbringatowel: yes they're very similar; but I like Ubuntu's easiness of use. I do hacky stuff, of course; but it's nice to have a simple way of doing things when I just need it to work (tm) :)06:52
|unjustice|Gun_Smoke: but it did not change for the better after an update/upgrade either06:52
tony_however, xorg is normal, without this res setting, i've gone back to my dual 17's and its still reading the old res in that app06:52
tony_which is effecting some games I play06:52
Gun_Smoke|unjustice|, have you install ubuntu-restriced-extras ?06:53
waantony_, try not to use the enter key as punctuation, it makes things harder to read... So the problem is, your screen is in the wrong resolution?06:54
dominic_What is the thing you guys like most about ubuntu?06:54
|unjustice|Gun_Smoke: not sure what that is...I'll check synaptic06:54
bringatowelandresj, yes agreed, plus there is a great ubuntu community, with lots of info on forums and more :)06:54

Gun_Smokeerr..06:54
|unjustice|Gun_Smoke: you sure?06:54
waandominic_, Everything!06:55
tony_waan: sorry, yes and no, its correcting being displayed, however this application is reading the old res (2560x1024) which is effecting some games, i've checked xorg.conf and it seems fine and no mention of this old resolution06:55
bobertdosdominic_: Most of us would love to answer that, however it is off topic (and besides a lot of us could go on for hours about it).06:55
Gun_Smoke|unjustice|, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras06:55
Gun_SmokeThought I had a typo in there.06:55
chubs_dominic_, it's brown and orange06:55
waantony_, so the "screen resolution" setting is fine and xorg is correct. Are all games selecting this res or just a few?06:56
tony_waan: just the old setting, 2560x102406:56
andresjbringatowel: yeah, i love it how it is very easy to find things in the Ubuntu wiki06:56
tony_waan: also i've tried to force (rewriting config files for the game) to read another res, it defaults back to 2560x102406:56
andresjbringatowel: well I gotta go; see you someday on IRC haha06:57
tony_waan: in ubuntu, pref > screen resolution, it only reads 2560x1024, and not the other res's in xorg.conf06:57
bringatowelandresj, okay, take care :)06:57
|unjustice|Gun_Smoke: couldnot find package information...06:58
Gun_Smokehumm06:58
|unjustice|Gun_Smoke: ooops06:58
|unjustice|Gun_Smoke: haha, typo06:58
waantony_, xorg.conf shouldn't need any screen resolutions in it06:58
|unjustice|Gun_Smoke: :)06:58
tony_waan: well either way, where is this 2560x1024 resolution coming from?06:58
waantony_, and you are using dual 17" monitor setup?06:59
tony_waan: correct, twinview06:59
tony_waan: with correct drivers installed06:59
lateswap nv-nvidia06:59
waantony_, well that's why. the resolution is correct because you have a two monitor setup06:59
waantony_,  1280*2 = 256007:00
tony_waan: ah, my mistake, should I be running Seperate X per screen?07:00
Helloware the forums down?07:00
waantony_, well the game will either stretch the two screens, or just use 1 screen. But to be honest I don't play games so I'm not sure07:01

tony_waan: no just one07:02
waantony_, but it's all streched?07:02
tony_waan: yes07:02
waantony_, yeah the game probably doesn't support dual monitor, so it's just using xorg settings for rez07:02

pjotrfuzion: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg07:42
waanfuzion, if you need to change from vesa, you'll probably need to modify xorg.conf to the correct intel driver07:42
bobertdosstarn: I didn't even know that was valid, but if it is, it probably means "copy target to current directory."07:43
fuzionwaan and how i would do that?07:43

JonteHey. I have a question.. I Have a laptop (intel X3100 chipset) where the audio seems to die after a few hours/days. This may be due to the fact that I put the computer in sleep mode..

linxuz3rwhat about free software as in fsf and opensource?12:11
somedrewcatmando, the gdm init scripts propably have it set to respawn. Easiest way is to just switch to a non X runlevel via init12:11

magnetroneth01, in linux you CAN use two ip:s for the same NIC. however, you need to do this by creating a virtual interface. see http://handsonhowto.com/virt.html , follow the "debian" instructions12:11
linxuz3rSlimeyPete: please please12:11

Stevkocatmando, I believe it is possible to use kdm/xdm without kde.12:12
SlimeyPete"open source" is a bit broader and includes BSD etc. - the licence states that you're free to modify the code but doesn't necessarily require that you make your own modifications available under the same licence12:12

armornickit's supposed to be a .tar.gz12:26
jribdonald__: the tar.gz12:26
StevkoDrCuddles, dd_rescue just copies file/disk/something to another file/disk/something. I think most often it is disk to file. dd can do it also, but it fails when disk is bad. dd_rescue continues in that case. So, you can use it to copy all data from bad disk to another disk and then try to do something with the result.12:26

psy-bladeHate to burst in and ask a question straight away but I am a little short on time.12:48
bullgard4What is the relation of Openoffice.org and Java?12:48
psy-bladeI'm having some trouble disabling the internal mic and using the line-in instead on 8.04 with pulseaudio. Anybody have any ideas? I tried the PulseAudio Manager, but I turnt he mic down in that and Audacity still uses the internal mic.12:49
StevkoDrCuddles, /dev/sda1 is a drive. When you mount it to some directory (e.g. /media/sda1) , this directory will show the content of that drive. If the drive /dev/sda1 is mounted, it is not good to work with /dev/sda1, since some parts (some internal structures) of it are opened by operating system (Linux in this case).12:49
MrColorirc.del.bg12:50
StevkoDrCuddles, If you want to copy sda1 to sdb1, you can run dd_rescue /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb112:50
StevkoDrCuddles, when both are umounted12:50
StevkoDrCuddles, it will rewrite whole sdb1 (so anything that was there is not anymore)12:50
armornickbullgard4, both are made by sun microsystems12:51
StevkoDrCuddles, sdb1 should be same size as sda1 (or larger). Then you can try to mount /dev/sdb1 However I am not sure if it will work.12:51
DrCuddlesStevko, Thanks lots f :Por this, I have unmounted both drives now and am going to run dd_rescue, talk to you later12:51
DrCuddles:P12:51
bullgard4armornick: Is that all that you can contribute to the question put?12:51
armornickbullgard4, I don't think there's any other relation12:52
hazrd11can i open some autostart application/config via a cmd in the terminal?12:52
DrCuddlesStevko, oh yeah and should i run it under sudo?12:52
StevkoDrCuddles, nothing worse than completely loosing everuthing on sda and sdb cannot happen.12:52
StevkoDrCuddles, but be prepared, since it can happen12:52
bullgard4armornick: I see. Thank you for commenting.12:52
psy-bladeOh hmm Audacity doesn't support pulseaudio...12:52
DrCuddlesStevko, I understand the risks, should i run it in sudo?12:53
StevkoDrCuddles, it will not work without sudo, so yes, sudo. But it would be safer if you get help from someone who is there and understand it better.12:53

Philippe_i've installed ubuntu (the new one) on win vista as it says in the installation14:40
uffopaper_cc: i have 387014:40
paper_ccuffo, if you just want to repair there should be an uninstaller somewhere14:40

Philippe_but when i rebotted the computer i saw a L 99 99 99 screen14:41
Jack_SparrowPhilippe_ Do you mean using the Wubi installer while inside windows14:41

paper_ccuffo, and the X log14:41

paper_ccuffo, do you really hate the Ubuntu proprietary drivers manager so much?14:42
uffopaper_cc: it showed enabled if i installed driver14:42
Philippe_actualy i've installed ubuntu on another partition than the windows vista one14:42
Jack_SparrowPhilippe_ ok, so not a wubi install?14:43
paper_ccuffo, you should uninstall the driver via its installer and have it installed with the driver manager if you want to work that way14:43

jbroome_DrCuddles: it made a bit-by-bit copy of your bad drive15:21
DrCuddlesjbroome, lol so how do i use it to jsut recover a drive?15:21
DrCuddlesjbroome, so that I can recover data on it, send it to a .img file?15:21
somedrew_RandyboY, after that it's a matter of loading the appropriate driver with the correct special parameters (i'm guessing that's needed or else it would just work automagically for you).15:21

djamelamenado, it looks very interesting, even if it produces swf, the thing is i need to screencast the gdm splash screen, so i think i'll first install a ubuntu in a virtualbox, and then maybe use it15:37
somedrew_RandyboY, a lot of googling :) Check your installed alsa version either via apt or from packages.ubuntu.com, then check the alsa website for supported chips from that, and finally searching google for something like 'modprobe <chip> options OR parameters' to find out how to load the module. If you need to know the chip, 'lspci' should spit out the required info15:38
djamelamenado, also as i ts a vnc-based application maybe there's a way to do sart it remotely or spmething like that15:38

amenadodjamel okay...just my reading of it -- sounds interesting, i just dont have the tools (like sound on mine) to make those work15:39

somedrew_Flynsarmy, the BIOS would automagically shutdown the computer if it got critically hot, but i8kutils provides a kernel module that lets you manually adjust the fans and even set out some custom schemas. Please read the documentation carefully though because your i8kutil settings will bypass the BIOS fan control16:02

s0u][ightbut now i'm stuck :|16:52
somedrew_s0u][ight, oh noes...libc6 is very integral to the system. Never upgrade using a different repo than your official system sources. Is it just your repo that's broken or most C apps? You will probably have to chroot into your system using a live cd and downgrade libc6 to othe appropriate version, instructions can be found in the wiki.16:52
danbh_intrepids0u][ight: why?16:52
Rob7205Bye everyone, have a nice morning, day, night :)16:52

somedrew_s0u][ight, *shoud read "never upgrade libc6 from non official...etc*, I'll check on a source for the chroot surgery.16:53
s0u][ightthe generic headers needed a newer version of libc616:53
s0u][ightsomedrew_, is that the reason apt-get update hangs?16:53
somedrew_libc should just be for userspace API16:53

ubottuAayush: Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo17:00

Scuniziyates: some cameras have an option to setup the usb connection as a "HD" or something similar.  You might try opening Fspot and clicking on the import button using that to navigate to the camera. Otherwise, as I do with my Nikon, I remove the SD card and put it in a reader.. then all works well..18:43

ubottukeepsake: If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why)18:43

ndfi don't, i'm just wondering why19:08
JampiterAnyone?19:08
ndfon my old slackware box i used to use su instead of sudo -i19:08
ikoniandf: so ?19:08
r00t_sudo mount -t smbfs //server/20gb%20external/Music -o username password just displays the man page19:08
ndfi don't understand why ubuntu is so adamant that you shouldnt do that?19:08
ikoniandf: the effort for security that ubuntu has put in is sterling, why do you feel you need to be root19:08
ikoniandf: why do you feel the need to do it instead of the ubuntu method ?19:09
ikoniandf: why will you not use sudo -i19:09
awesommenew wad file: http://www.hardstylersunited.dk/index.php19:09
Azazel-A2no -o username=xxx,pasword=xxx you need no spaces and a comma19:09
ndfi'm not saying i won't use sudo -i19:09
ndfi'm just asking why we shouldnt be root?19:09
r00t_so username=username,password=password?19:09
ikoniandf: no - one said you shouldn't be19:09
eraccndf, IMO if you have a problem with the way *buntu does things then don't use *buntu. It is not like you have no other choices. :)19:09
giggseyI'm trying to boot the ubuntu livecd, and it keeps kernel panic'ing, saying something about not syncing: Machine check. Any ideas?19:09
Seveasndf, security best practice is not to have too many privileges you don't need19:09
ndferacc: i'm not saying i have a problem19:09
ndfi'm just asking why19:10
Azazel-A2except put your username and pawword in lieu of =username and =password :D19:10
ikoniandf: you are root with sudo -i19:10
ndfnot really19:10
ndfsudo is root19:10
J-nndf: It's also a real good way to keep people from doing to much dammage to their system. As root you can mess quite a bit up that you cannot do as just a user.19:10
marculesGood Evening19:10
r00t_so sudo mount -t smbfs //server/20gb%20external/Music -o username,password19:10
eraccndf, the "why" has been answered elsewhere. IIRC this IRC channel is for specific support.19:10
ikoniandf: yes...sudo is root - so whats the problem ?19:10
Gammihey guys, I need some help....19:11
Azazel-A2ndf: I like sudo -s, it keeps your home directory as /home/user rather than /root19:11
ndfikonia: there is no problem19:11
ikoniandf: great19:11
ndfi'm just wanting to understand that's all19:11

ndfwhy is everyone kicking up sucha  fuss anyway? i'm only trying to learn19:12
Azazel-A2root yes.  if it all mounts up we will modify fstab and add line there. they you can simply try mount /media/external or umount /media/extrenal anythime you want to connect or disconnect19:12

ndfwow that sounds intersting19:13
ndf*interesting19:13
Gammiandresj Thx man!!!19:13
eraccndf, learning is good. Go do some web searching on your question. You will likely find an answer.19:13
Seveasndf, you can already see it in ubuntu 8.04 and later, several dialogs have an 'unlock' button that iirc uses this mechanism of elevating privileges19:14
r00t_doesnt mount though19:14
r00t_and it opens in winamp on an xp lappy19:14
Azazel-A2saveas, I don't like that idea.  I like user land in a seperate ring altogether19:14
J-nJampiter: Please repeat your question, all i see you saying for the past 1- min is "anyone" :)19:14
ndfSeveas: isn't that just gksudo?19:14
J-n10*19:14
Azazel-A2what did mount say?19:14
SeveasAzazel-A2, it is in a separate land, even more separate than now: using (gk)sudo, gui things are run as root. With the new mechanisms not19:14
autoterroristhallo19:15
Azazel-A2try mount w/o name and password then19:15
Seveasndf, no, those are different. The update manager still uses gksudo for instance19:15

H_M-UbuntuHey, i'm looking for some system debugger in terminal/for desktop..21:38
H_M-UbuntuI'm not talking like, htop,21:38
RazerbladerGnea, I'm trying to say that choosing vista loader first, then choosing ubuntu after that from vista's boot up options get's me Busybox21:38
Kxxpurpzey: you must be easing getting a deb for latest version 0.4.821:39
H_M-UbuntuI mean something which shows activity down to read/write and where it's reading and writing21:39

duncan-nznach, typically because it was compiled with a flag missing or added, or compiled with the wrong version of something. Not always the packagers fault though. An upstream change can mean they have to repackage it.22:14

duncan-nzKasper84, generally avoid the root terminal unless someone you trust tells you to use it.22:33
J-nScunizi hopefully flats caught that before he left O.o22:33
duncan-nzKasper84, in this case it wouldn't have made any difference.22:34

Casao_AAOeven though it is obviously right, since i can use it to log into my machine and use sudo and gksudo22:45
Casao_AAOScunizi: the password is correct22:45
duncan-nzKasper84, I've read the advice to ban the linux driver. That sounds good but he's banning a driver which is not for exactly the same hardware and I'd have to look more to know if you're using the same one. This is because ndiswrapper doesn't play well if linux is also trying to run the wireless hardware. So lets try something else first.22:45
Kxxbrolly81: you'l get list of your partitions from a command like, sudo fdisk -l22:46
duncan-nzKasper84, Do you have the correct windows driver for that wireless card?22:46
Casao_AAOthe dialogs w/ an Unlock button don't work - anything using gksudo works. I can log in fine and I can sudo fine22:46

Kasper84duncan-nz I might be cheating at our race.  I googled and something called WINE will let me use the .exe drivers:-D23:04

=== un_corq is now known as uncorq
Kxxstarn: that means you dont have development packages related to X installed23:05
duncan-nzKasper84, WINE just convinces software that's it's in a windows environment. It's still Ubuntu which does all the I/O work talking to the hardware. That's why WINE can't solve this issue. But it's a very interesting and useful project.23:06
chubs_starn, xorg-dev or similar23:06
starnKxx: ok thankyou23:06
duncan-nzKasper84, but I'm thinking that if WINE runs that .exe file I can then try and fine where it has put the .inf file and then we have it!23:06
Kasper84duncan-nz but if the drivers are inside that .exe cant I run it, then just pick the drivers out of where it went to?  grandson told me that an .exe is like a box and it has a bunch of stuff packed into it, you jsut unpacking the box when you click right?23:07
duncan-nzKasper84, you're welcome to try it if you want. It can't do any harm,23:07

Kasper84duncan-nz so send it to c/home/documents and it should be in my documents right?23:08
Scuniziwizzer: if you're just copying files use the cp command with sudo.. like.. sudo cp /location/file /newlocation/file23:08

Casao_AAOSo if no one in here can help me, where else might i find someone who could help me.23:09
duncan-nzKasper84, yes, but from wine you have access to the whole system anyway.23:09
Scuniziwizzer: Flannel also had a great suggestion.. that way you can probably drag and drop23:09
Kasper84duncan-nz Bingo we have all the drivers there23:09
duncan-nzKasper84, but there is no 'C:' on Ubuntu. WINE makes a fake one,23:09
duncan-nzKasper84, so you can lead ndiswrapper to them and see what happens.23:10

You should consider adding a question to these if they don't help: https://answers.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+questions?field.search_text=bcmwl5&field.sort=RELEVANCY&field.sort-empty-marker=1&field.actions.search=Search&field.language=da&field.language=en&field.language-empty-marker=23:25

kineticthank you i'm going to go try that now23:26
danbh_intrepidJeffrey1: no idea, its installable.  Frankly, I got so po'ed with webcam support on linux, that I just use windows for that23:27
Scunizidavidguest: the ircd server uses specific ports that it listens to.  Your router probably blocks those ports or doesn't know where to send them.. the router has to be told to move traffic for those ports to your box.23:27
patrikXial: are they for the e220?23:27
davidguestits a server with fasthosts.co.uk23:27
r2d24ukinetic: look at the bottom of that file23:27
duncan-nzFlannel, I think he's accidentally killed his network access.23:27
Xialpatrik, it might get you on the road to connecting. I was using the instructions for a pantech px-500, but people are also using that instruction set for things like the motorola razr, and other phones that have EV-DO / HSDPA connectivity.23:27
BCM34dr_willis: nope, wont work, i need to press play on one computer and have different computers play the sound. Thanks anyway23:28
Scunizidavidguest: they may block those ports as default.. you might try contacting them.23:28

gbolteKxx, its installed but I cannot get it to start23:36
gbolteyeah23:36
Xialpatrik, I'm half tempted to ask you to disconnect from wireless, hang up the current mobile broadband dial-in session, and start it again, just to eliminate the wireless from the equation. :) Let me think and see if there's a better solution first, however.23:36
milostrifehey anyone know how to mount a formated hard rive with nothing on, into linux as it's no recognising it?23:36

Scunizimilostrife: you could try "sudo mount -a23:37
Xialpatrik, exactly. :) That's why I'm thinking to see if I have a better solution.23:37

Xialpatrik, I also assume you're currently using wvdial for managing the Huawei device, correct?23:38
Scunizimilostrife: nope.. that's just a quick dirty way to mount what isn't mounted.. you could also look under Places/Computer and find the drive there then right mouse click and choose "mount"23:38

milostrifeno first time i tried to was through the live cd and it wouldn't let me23:41
Scunizimilostrife: ok.. do you have ubuntu installed at this point? or are you only using the live cd?23:41

danbh_intrepiddiegodiaz: why cant you right click the file, and change it in the options?23:42
dr_willisdanbh_intrepid,  i sort of mentioned that earlier.. but i dont think it heard me. :)23:42
danbh_intrepiddiegodiaz: 'properties' to be specific23:42
Xialpatrik, I must admit, I'm a tad baffled here. since its acting a little daft, would you mind simply disconnecting the Huawei device, and attempting to redial it?23:42
lw0x15hey, does anyone know whats the thing called which can display system info ?23:43
Scunizimilostrife: ok.. open a console/terminal (Applications/Accessories/Terminal) and type .. sudo apt-get install gparted23:43
danbh_intrepiddr_willis: maybe its time to /ignore  : P23:43
dr_willisdanbh_intrepid,  I would of just used the command line and been done with it...23:43
diegodiazyou can change what the file opens with, but if the file is seen as another type of file your file is locked.23:43
patrikXial, ofc. Might lose connection, i did that last time, so if I disappear it's not because I'm unthankful23:43
lw0x15hey, does anyone know whats the thing called which can display system info ?23:44

dr_willisdiegodiaz,  i have some .cbr files that are actually missnamed .cbz files, and it confuses things.23:44

jescisjrib, upstart? hhmmm -- is that for the server too?23:46
Xialpatrik, I can only surmise that there's some sort of a misconfiguration. I made a silly assumption earlier that suse.de was something to do with your mobile provider. :)23:46

Kxxgbolte: i killed the daemon pulseaudio -k23:47
chalcedonyif my email attachments to yahoo mail are going to someplace called 'tmp' .. how can i get them to upload to someone else?23:47
Scunizimilostrife: since it's the secondary drive it's probably sdb.. in the lower portion of the box they should also be listed.23:47
patrikXial, no... guessing it has something to do with suse, the dist? Anyways I'm using Tre in sweden23:47

dr_willismilostrife,  you could unplug the ubnut hd.  install windows to the other hd.. replug them both in.. and make ubuntu boot the 2nd hd.. (or use the bios menus to boot it) 023:53
patrikdr_willis, they also make them all shiny and white, so you see them easily ;)23:53
diegodiazthanks dan..23:53
Kxxgbolte: sudo netstat -tulapn | grep LIST ?23:53
dr_willismilostrife,  you are refering to having 2 seperate hard drives.. Not just a c: and D:  which can be on the same drive...23:53

Xialpatrik, hopefully this won't discourage you too much. :) I know the cards are a pain to set up, and I was kind of dreading setting up my pantech today.23:54
milostrifeScunizi,  well i tried that after i couldn't install straight off but it wouldn't detect it for some reason23:54
Scunizimilostrife: ok.. then you've got other things to do to make it work.. The windows install cd will create and format the HD for you but will mess up the linux Grub boot loader.. that will have to be fixed after a win install. Are you installing so you can play games or do other things.?23:54
gboltehmm23:54
gboltewell its there listening23:54
diegodiazdon't know yet, working it..23:54

patrikXial, I just installed ubuntu on my new laptop, having had XP on the desktop before since I never really made friends with linux and wireless before. It really did work out of the box, even bluetooth worked... I made som major failures with earlier versions of ubuntu, fedora and gentoo on my old laptop23:56
Scunizimilostrife: python runs in Ubuntu.. if the games need direct x then you'll definitely have to install Win the normal way. Another way to do this without borking Grub is to disconnect the ubuntu drive and leave the secondary. Install windows, reconnect Ubuntu drive and then use the bios to switch between them or update grub to include a line to list windows on boot.23:57
danbh_intrepiddavidguest: can you paste the results of netstat -l ?23:57
drkibidr_willis: Hmm, true, thanks for the info :). I'll just expirement with it then :)23:57
patrikdr_willis, true. But at least they are expensive23:57
jribdavidguest: sorry.  I didn't mean to spam you with !pm :)  Use paste.ubuntu.com to paste23:57
milostrifeScunizi,  pref do the update grub line to include both23:57

Xialpatrik, that's one of the great things -- I had a similar experience (since I am admittedly a windows user who is dabbling bit by bit on this side of the line) with this laptop. Never did test the wi-fi, since I don't use a wireless router. :)23:58
patrikMy e220 connects and receives an IP, but can't seem to connect to the DNS. Trying for some reason to connect to suse.de. Any ideas?23:59
DasEimilostrife : also a very good tool for recreating grub is the super-grub cd (google it)23:59
milostrifeScunizi,  ?? that kinda wen over my head still rather new with ubuntu23:59
Scunizimilostrife: did you get the private message that DasEi sent you on grub?  It's worth bookmarking23:59
milostrifeScunizi,  yeah i just loading :)23:59
diegodiazhey dan, it looks like there should be an argument for that particular command.. I am using hardy, might it have changed in context from that post?23:59
