jimv2000it's a cache file, not ram00:00

jimv2000it could be as big as it wants00:00

harleyhey once i get my iso burnt and installed (hopefully) i have a pentium 4 1.6 ghz with 512 mb ram would i be able to run halflife 2 in wine?00:53
J-n^phantom^ i suspect it has much less to do with the mount command than with what you are trying to mount and where :) Which instructions are you using for setting it up?00:53
Murlisdjhash: format as ext3?00:53
chubsPhreaks, i don't use ndiswrapper00:53
ScuniziMurlis: djhash then what I'd suggest is just leave it alone until you can get/borrow an external HD or another internal temporarily.. copy /home to it/them .. then reformat the entire drive and create 3 partitions 8-12 gigs for / .. 1 gig for /swap and the rest /home.. then copy everything from the old /home back to the new location.00:53
chubsPhreaks, did you test the fix?00:54
bobertdosharley: This might be better for #winehq, but those are awfully low specs for HL2.......00:54
Phreakschubs, i have braodcom wireless , HP pavilion 6500 ee00:54
eidohmmm  that didn't work I deleted the ubuntu logical partition in manage under windows, copied eeebuntu to a usb but I get dumped to busybox when trying to boot usb00:54
Phreakschubs, yes i already try before , but no use00:54
jorritharley, HL2 seems to run pretty good in Wine. It depends if you have a video card that is working smoothly under ubuntu.00:54
chubsPhreaks, not sure then. sorry, as i said I don't use ndiswrapper00:54
ScuniziMurlis: djhash make them all primary partitions .. nothing extended.. it's not necessary unless you need more than 4 partitions on the drive.00:54
chubseido, did you copy all the boot files?00:55
DasEiuriel_ running hardy ?00:55

=== LSD|Ninj1 is now known as LSD|Ninja
djhashMurlis: you can format sda1 to ext3 in gparted.. and i'd agree with Scunizi, if its something that can wait, just get yourself another hard drive.. otherwise, trying to change root paritions and then changing mount positions is kinda risky..00:56
|thunderCan someone please help me add "cd ~/Alex\ Jones/ && streamripper  http://www.infowars.com/stream.pls -t 14400" to cron to be run as a user(not root) on weekdays at noon ?00:56

Boxicijorrit: i don't know so much about that, you've lost me there, can you help me with this? and explain step by step what i have to do01:02
ScuniziBoxici: you're domain name was purchased from someone.. they can point it anywhere you want.  The problem is you probably have a dyanmic IP from your ISP. You need to use a service like dynamicdns to track your ip.. You'd tell your isp to forward the domain name to the one given you by dydns.com and it will direct everything to your computer on your lan.. you also have to set port forwarding on your router to something other than port 8001:02
^Phantom^i need to what the who?01:02
BoxiciScunizi:  i have a static ip and when i put my ip in the browser the webserver works, but i want to use my domain not my ip...01:03
DasEiuriel_:think is alower border for vista, as you haven't got it for hardy nomore, then, don't now about minimal vista specs01:03

^Phantom^fuck the shared folder, i'll use dvds01:03
eidochubs: yes01:03
ScuniziBoxici: your static ip is probably 192.xxx.xxx.x or something like that.. that's not the ip I was referring to.  That's an internal (lan) ip.  The one assigned to you by your isp is recognized by your router only.01:04

jorritBoxici: So the basics work, congratulations! In order to get it linked to your domain, you need the following DNS-records:01:22
dewentehow about my computer name ?01:22
farvai need a little help with my wireless card connection01:23
jorritBoxici: www.boxici.ro A 86.126.168.23401:23
airtonix_dewente, in terminal type this : wget https://secure.internode.on.net/webtools/showmyip?textonly=101:23
dewenteEmmett, ?01:23
farvai have an Intel pro wireless and I can only get it to briefly associate with my ap01:23
airtonix_dewente, it will tell you what your ip is as seen from the internet01:23
dewenteok01:23
Emmettdewente: 192.168.*.* will be inaccessible from the internet as it's not a real IP.01:24
mathiasHas anyone here tried the program PCSX2?  Whether it's through WINE or using the source code?01:24
marinahola01:24
zeroshadefarva: which version of the card?01:24
jorritBoxici: Those records have to present at your nameservers ns3.krond.org and ns4.krond.org for it to work properly.01:24
farvai have an Intel pro wireless and I can only get it to briefly associate with my ap. Any takers on helpin me out01:24
darrenmathias, yes i have tryed it01:24
marinaalguien español?01:24
jorritBoxici: ... to >be< present ...01:24
mathiasWas it any good?01:24
dewenteairtonix, i have some ip now.. let me try out01:24
Cheekywat codecs do i need to get my codecs working ? i used .. ubuntu restricted extra stuff package .. the first tme i installed ubuntu and ppl said that it may cause problems with firefox; so thisismy second installation and i was wondering wat if ishould install the codecs in a different way ?01:25
zeroshadei'll take a crack at it farva, i've had to solve that problem with my own intel card. which version of the card do you have?01:25
physically_fitmarina: #ubuntu-es01:25
Boxicijorrit: so i have to change both ns3.krond.org and ns4.krond.org with my ip address?01:25
zeroshade3945? 4965?01:25
unopEmmett, those are real IP addresses - just inaccessible over the internet as they are private01:25

Emmettunop: and hence not Internet Protocol.01:25
unopEmmett, heh, what do you mean?01:25
Cheekyit had to do somthing with a the font in firefox.. but i didnt experience anything01:26
zeroshadeis it using WEP or WPA?01:26
zeroshadeor open?01:26
jorritBoxici: Probably your provider has a nice control-panel for that. It is hazardous to try and edit the zone-tables yourself if you don't know what you're doing.01:26
farvai have tried all 3 and same thing but i use wpa01:26
airtonix_emma, 192.168.0.1 is a valid IP address.01:26
remuhey every one, I have a HP dv4t laptop, I was having sound issues which were resolved using the "pci=noacpi" kernel option, however now I do not have brightness control, I was also thinking of undervolting the processor to get increased battery life, but I believe that I need acpi in order to do that....does anyone know what I can do to get working audio alongside atleast working brightness controls?01:26
zeroshadeok, associate with it, wait for it to break. then immediately run 'dmesg | grep ipw'01:26
dewenteairtonix, so.. this ip should be my internet ip ?01:27
zeroshadewith some luck you'll find an error being outputted that should help01:27
Boxicijorrit: when i try to put my ip address in there at name servers it says that the name of the nameserver are incorrect01:27
darrenmathias, to tell you the truth not really had to put all settings on low sound was not in sync and had a strange small white ox in top left hand side during game play, but that might have been becaue i was using a laptop01:27
tylerHow can i configure my ipod nano to work with amarok01:27

airtonixemma, twas a mistell01:31
dewenteairtonix, ok already done .. that show me an ip01:31
DasEistibily:using hardy?  for irc-quests : /join #freenode01:31
Boxicijorrit: i want to install a counter strike server too and i heard that i need plesk for that because it is much more easy01:31
airtonixdewente, that is the ip address others would use to connect to your current machine...you of course have to setup port forwarding on your router to bring the remote access to your computer.01:32
jorritBoxici: Plesk is nice on one hand, but restricts you a lot. You'll need a license for that.01:32
stibilyyes, using hardy01:32
Raylzhi, why isnt iceweasel in the repos?01:32
puffHm, amarok isn't producing audio. Firefox is, so is xterm if I do something that produces a beep,.01:32
DasEi!who | stibily01:32
ubottustibily: As you can see, this is a large channel. If you're speaking to someone in particular, please put their nickname in what you say (use !tab), or else messages get lost and it becomes confusing :)01:32
farvazeroshade what is the best way to monitor thw break without having to do iwconfig over and over01:32
chubsRaylz, because ubuntu is not debian. And firefox is01:33
DasEistibily:open a terminal...01:33
dmoernerRaylz, ubuntu is pushing abrowser instead i think. they made a deal with mozilla to get firefox in ubuntu but now there is a big debate over 3.0.2 in intrepid01:33
dewenteairtonix, this is my router website01:33
chatticuscould any kind soul explain why there's such a huge discrepency in *total* ping times between these two sites? http://paste.ubuntu.com/47626/ ... the more bizarre thing is that the "slow" site pings just fine in windows. IPv6 has been disabled01:33
MERLiiNHello01:33
Remorse_hi01:33
zeroshadefarva it doesn't show the loss of connection in the network manager?01:33
farvano01:33
darrenhi01:33
slewDasEi, yes, i can ping her lappy by ping herpcname01:33
Raylzdmoerner: why?01:34
dmoernerRaylz, why? because mozilla makes you agree to a one-time license agreement when you first start firefox 3.0.2 which was deemed "un-ubuntu"01:34
Remorse_I'll think about it01:34
MERLiiNdunno01:34
zeroshadewhat happens in the network manager? it thinks you're still connected?01:34
jorritBoxici, try this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/47627/01:34
Boxicijorrit: so there is nothing i can do to make this work right?01:34
airtonixdewente, yes....the ip address you saw is the ip of your router as seen from the internet..so it is what external people will see you as...I think you need to read up on how network-address-translation works if you wnat to understand what is going on in your network01:34
Boxicijorrit:  i am talking about the domain and webserver now...01:35
Raylzdmoerner: the EULA? whats so particulary bad about it?01:35
DasEislew: sudo mkdir /mnt/vistapc01:35
farvazeroshade ok got it01:35
jorritBoxici: Did you look at my suggestions for DNS records?01:35
nkei0Raylz: It's a EULA, open source software shouldn't have EULA's normally.01:35
chubsRaylz, that there is one01:35
airtonixdewente, but i dont even know what your original problem is or what your trying to achieve01:35
slewDasEi, done01:35
Boxicijorrit: and what can i do with that?01:35
zeroshadegot the error? or got network manager showing the break? lol01:36
evilGUIhey I installed vlc 9.0.2 yesterday and it can't play a few of my files I installed it with the debian sources and can't uninstall it it says it's not installed01:36
evilGUIhow would I go about removing it?01:36
dewenteairtonix, i copy that ... how about i am trying make a connection from windows and is givining error01:36
Raylzdmoerner: so what are the considering to do? use iceweasel?01:36
zeroshadefarva: i've gotta run. i'll be back in about 10 minutes.01:36
Boxicijorrit: i am looking at it right now but i don't know what to do with that info!!!01:36
jorritBoxici: Well, you can enter them at your DNS control panel. If your provider does not allow you to enter your domain name, it is probably substituted by @01:36
airtonixdewente, have you setup samba on your ubuntu machine and have you opened the ports for samba?01:36
farvak01:36
dmoernerRaylz, they are considering abrowser01:37
dmoerner!abrowser01:37

airtonixCheeky, from what i know those two formats quicktime and realmedia are two formats that are not totally supported in linux. could be wrong02:07
viniciusanyone knows about icontray notification colors?02:07
viniciuslike this --> http://img369.imageshack.us/img369/538/capturadatelamz3.jpg02:07
jyotsnaIf Yes, where do I find the set up for Compiz fusion02:07
carandraugjyotsna: it should be default. Install ccsm to have a nice menu to edit the effects02:07
mralexandrois anyone familiar with cairo dock?02:07
jribevilGUI: you compiled it?  I thought you said you used videolan's debian repositories?02:08
zeroshadethere should be instructions. but usually firmware goes into /lib/firmware/`uname -r`/02:08
airtonixvinicius, as far as i am aware, the libnotify colorus cant be changed02:08
evilGUII did both02:08
Jordan_UevilGUI: And in the future until you get more experienced you should stay away from compiling from source02:08

pianoboy3333ubottu: hi02:10
ubottuHi! Welcome to #ubuntu!02:10
smokiehey guys, i created a test user account but it doesnt have access to run commands like make install, how can i give it permission so it can?02:10
farvause sudo02:10
lanaasterisk02:11
smokiefarva, if i use that it will b owned by the user that uses sudo or root, not the test user02:11
farvaoh my bad just guessin02:11
evilGUIYeah I would stay away from the source but you can't get anything new the other way02:11
farvaim still real new to this stuff02:11
jribsmokie: where is it trying to install to?  What error are you getting?02:11
unopsmokie, if you add the user to the admin group, the user can use sudo02:11
J-npianoboy3333: nothing there helped? not running the autodetect script again? neither the instructions on editing xor.conf?02:12
C0L7I cannont read my windows xp partition (NTFS) in Ubuntu. I have tried to use NTFS Configuration tool, it says an error occured please retry. anybody have any ideas? I can boot into windows and when i open Gparted It says "unable to read contents of filesystem"02:12
J-n*xorg.conf02:12
smokieunop, i dont want to add it to the admin group, thats the thing02:12
NutzebahnI have dynamips nd dynagen now, but, want to know if Cisco charges for the router images? If so, where can I get free ones?02:12
smokiejrib, trying to install it in the home dir i created for the test user02:12
pianoboy3333J-n: I can't find anything help full there, the autodetect thing doesn't do monitor/video driver in hardy02:13
zeroshadefarva: if you really don't wanna use sudo you can use sudo su - to be root. but i don't reccomend it02:13
unopsmokie, adding the user to the admin group does not give the user any special capabilities, except maybe the ability to use sudo02:13
carandraugC0L7: you have ntfs-3g installed? Could you pastebin the output of "sudo fdisk -l"?02:13
J-nWhat video card driver are you using?02:13
Deniseomg02:13
zeroshadefarva: if you do run "sudo su - " to be root, then make sure you type "exit" before you do other things to log out of root02:13
jribsmokie: and my other question?02:13
unopsmokie, you could circumvent the admin group and make an entry for the user in /etc/sudoers - but that's as good as adding the user to the admin group02:14
unopzeroshade, don't suggest sudo su ..  sudo -i02:14

jribunop: his user shouldn't need to use sudo to install to his home directory, right?02:14
zeroshadeunop: oh. ok thanks02:14
unopjrib, errm, depends if the target requires setting things like setuid, etc - but usually no02:15
Jordan_UevilGUI: What new can't you get as a .deb?02:15
evilGUIlike coreavc for linux and things like that02:16
zeroshadefarva: is it working now?02:16
J-npianoboy3333: First thing is to be sure you're using the right driver for video, then set monitor specs. If you know what your video card, and what driver you are using that would be a start.02:17

knoppix_TheSheep, this is nubuntu, i was here earlier talking to you about this issue.  Changing to a usb keyboard helped somewhat on this machine, but still can't boot xubuntu or ubuntu live cd for some reason.  i put this knoppix live disk on and i wonder if anyone could help me retrieve my friends windows files using knoppix.  the hard drive partition that contains the files is appearing on this desktop, but i'm kind of a newb.  to retrieve and copy the file02:17
knoppix_s, i need to 'mount' that partition, right??  could anyone help me walk through this?02:17
pianoboy3333J-n: I've got a nvidia GT 7600, and right now I have the nvidia-glx-new package installed02:18

iFvwmpianoboy3333: check: glxinfo |grep rendering02:19
airtonixvinicius, same thing i think then02:19
pianoboy3333iFvwm: a bunch of Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".\02:19
J-npianoboy3333: then you should be good to do the 2nd part in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto to manually set it, if you can't get it to set right with the gui tools i guess.02:19
DasEildiamond_:sudo dpkg-reconfigure -a02:20
knoppix_so, actually i've tryed right clicking to mount the partition, and it says 'mount failed, maybe another app is accessing the filesystem' but i'm not running anything else, just the knoppix live.  does anyone know of another way in to save these files?02:20
MasterShreki shoudl know this but where would a log be located that shows all my services starting?02:20

pibe86genius: i am going to try with alternative cd02:44
RediXe_Is there anyway to reinstall without a CD? I want to wipe this laptop and start from scratch but don't want to download the CD again if I can help it.02:44
pianoboy3333iFvwm: J-n: I can't modify my xorg.conf cause I dont' have one right now, after I deleted the old one, and I now have 1280x1024 I don't have an xorg.conf02:44
pianoboy3333iFvwm: J-n: nvidia-xconfig doesn't work, cause I don't have a config file...02:44
J-npianoboy3333 it should have created a new one automatically no?02:44
pibe86genius: does alternative cd include more drivers than live cd? what the difference?02:44
pianoboy3333J-n: no, I dk what it did02:44
iFvwmJ-n: i always use nvidia-settings to enabled my hdmi display. i hate nvidia-settings, for i want use xrandr to control this.02:44
geniuspibe86: maybe you have some hardware issues. for example - bad hdd02:45
harleyDasEi its says bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'02:45
iFvwmpianoboy3333: not nvidia-xconfig02:45
Aaron_MibbitRediXe_: if you can burn a CD, you can get a mini ISO and use that to build a minimal system, if you fancy a hands-on approach'02:45
DasEi pianoboy3333:sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg02:45
iFvwmbut nvidia-settings02:45
pianoboy3333iFvwm: nvidia-settings says run nvidia-xconfig02:45
Aaron_Mibbithey all, trying to connect to my VNC setup on my ubuntu machine at home, but it won't let me in... I've tried TightVNC, and RealVNC, both mention something about security types... anybody know of a vnc program that works for connecting to ubuntu's supplied vnc server?02:45
iFvwmpianoboy3333: ? so strange?02:45
geniuspibe86: no, alt cd have better text gui for advanced users. but imho it will not help to avoid this problems.02:45
iFvwmnot another indicate?02:46
pianoboy3333iFvwm: and dpkg-reconfigure doesn't work, cause md5sum can't find xorg.conf02:46
knoppix_DasEi, i restarted qparted and now on the left hand panel it is showing /dev/hda and below that /dev/sda ... is the sda the usb flashdrive?02:46
airtonixAaron_Mibbit, any reason you cant use ssh x forwarding?02:46
pianoboy3333haha02:46
DasEiharley : what about : sudo apt-get intstall /home/harley/Desktop/neroblabla.deb ?02:46
pianoboy3333crap02:46
iFvwmpianoboy3333: now your status is: all ok but 3D? right?02:46
pibe86genius: i dunno,  i will tried this, if it works i ll be happy xD02:46
pianoboy3333iFvwm: yea02:46
RediXe_Aaron_Mibbit: I COULD get and burn the CD but would be a little bit of a pain.02:46
DasEiknoppix_:yes, thats fine so far, is the ntfs seen by qtparted ?02:46
Aaron_Mibbitairtonix: it's behind a firewall and I don't have access to it at the moment, though I could do that02:46
airtonixAaron_Mibbit, there is a piece of software for windows called xMing, i was using it on XP to have remote x forwarding from windows to a gnome desktop02:46
thinkfasthey guys im having problems finding the "erase entire disc" option in the installation02:47
iFvwmpianoboy3333: so just add some parameter lines into xorg.conf.02:47
thinkfastive got fedora installed and i just want to wipe it off02:47
iFvwmas i paste02:47
Aaron_MibbitRediXe_: a little pain now can save a lot later on, trust me02:47
pianoboy3333iFvwm: I don't have an xorg.conf right now02:47
pianoboy3333I don't know how I can even be on my desktop02:47
Aaron_Mibbitairtonix: and that would go over the internet, not just on a LAN?02:47
DasEi pianoboy3333:sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg,           you can manually generate an xorg (empty) before02:47
airtonixAaron_Mibbit, so i could use putty, setup x forwarding and loginto my ubuntu machine, then i could run anything that would normally require a x server, which xMing handles since it is an x server for windows02:47
RediXe_Aaron_Mibbit: Well, I have the CD but it's an hour drive 1 way away from me so .... was hoping to avoid that much trouble.02:48
knoppix_DasEi, it seems to be, in the main panel to the right?  has these partitions listed: first is /dev/hda1 type fat16, then /dev/hda2 type ntfs status active02:48
airtonixAaron_Mibbit, it's connection abilities are using ssh... so anything you can setup ssh to connect to02:48
autumnso I'm fighting with a driver for a GE (sonix) Minicam Pro webcam (SN9C103 and ov7630 chipset)02:48

harleyDasEi it say couldnt find package i renamed it to 123.deb to reduce all the typeing.. :-(02:48
autumnand I've downloaded a "recent" release driver for it02:48
autumnthat is binary02:48
autumnand should load02:48
pianoboy3333oh now there's one02:48
pianoboy3333ok02:48
airtonixAaron_Mibbit, it was the easiest way for me to get gedit running on windows02:48
DasEiknoppix_:yes, thats fine , close qtparted, open a terminal...02:48
iFvwmright02:49
pianoboy3333iFvwm: ok now I did the reconfigure, what's next02:49
autumnbut I get an error: dependency is not satisfiable: linix-image-generic02:49

sjovanwhat is the command for findeing out the routers ip? you know... gateway. don't you have something like ipconfig in linux?02:49

knoppix_DasEi, closed it :)02:50
sjovanPDF_q: ifconfig doesn't give me the information i need02:50

airtonixBoxici, if you apache server is connecting to the internet via router that doesnt have static ip, then you need to investigate the use of dyndns03:18

bex_elexodus: your forward slash should be a backslash03:19
Denisehow come i cant remove apache203:19
airtonixthen you need to discuss with your domain name provider on how to point the domain name to your ip03:19

desaintsany reason why desktop is only letting me run at 51hz instead of 61hz at any resolution (running 1400x1050 atm)03:33
desaintsusing nvidia drivers03:33
elexodusdesaints: are your drivers restricted or otherwise blacklisted?03:34
danbh_intrepiddesaints: its a bug in the nvidia drivers related to twinview03:34
Boxiciairtonix:  i think that i can make this work... well i am new but i want to learn more... :)03:34
desaintsim using the restricted nvidia drivers03:34
Boxiciairtonix:  i think that i must edit the files from bind and create some nameservers for my apache2 hosting, after that just update the nameservers from my domain03:35
airtonixBoxici, have you ever use dyndns.org before?03:35
elexodusdesaints: because iNvidia resticts usage of the driver, sometimes the developement on the opensource end is well, "restricted."03:35
Boxiciairtonix:  no what's with that?03:35
desaintselexodus: so i can only get 51hz due to restrictions?03:35
crd1bdesaints: it's not really 51Hz03:36
crd1bit just _reports_ 51Hz, which may confuse apps that try to sync to the refresh rate03:36
ScuniziBoxici: airtonix I mentioned that 2 hours ago... :(03:36
airtonixBoxici, it's for people that are behind adsl connections which are not having static ip addresses. you use a program on your server called ddclient which 'pings' the dyndns server with your username and password, in return dyndns updates your record with the ip address it detects via the pings03:36

airtonixBoxici, have you tried looking on the website of your domain name providor and checking all its help files?03:38
pibe86elexodus: what*03:38
ScuniziBoxici: just got back from dinner.. if you have static Ip into your router then just contact the folks that sold you the domain name and have them forward it to your ip.. then you're done..03:38
Boxiciairtonix:  they are pore in that...03:39
airtonixBoxici, yeah you see the common element there,, in dyndns the server does the ip -> domain name association, in your case its the people running the domain name servers you have to contact03:39

airtonixhellcattrav, if you say the panel is the thing up top with the apple symbol then yes the two are different....when i said panel i was refering to the panel avant craetes....i call it panel because it doesnt extend right across the desktop..it merely sizes itself based on the contents04:23

ubottuIf you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP304:47

izinucsN4cht, I just submitted a new item for review.. :)04:49
airtonixdaklan, yeah i had a text file in my home folder open with leafpad...but '# lsof | grep filename.txt ' shows no reference to the file, lsof | grep txt | grep $USER doesnt either04:49
J-n^Phantom^: Honestly, what i would do, if you have a few hours, is download the newest version of ubuntu and make a new virtual drive, there's no real need for you to sweat about upgrading from 7.X to 8.04 if you don't have to... again this is my opinion.. and how i'd solve he problem :)04:49
daklanCheeky: i can't really walk you through uninstalling all your flash plugins. you can try going to firefox' plugins menu, and disable all flash plugins except the non-free one04:49
airtonixdaklan, i need to experiment more with lsof04:49
daklanairtonix: tried grepping for the process itself?04:49

Jordan_U^Phantom^: Why?04:50

ubuntutlupssorry i got 2 hours on Ubuntu05:53

karayanubuntulups, yes05:53
Macrosoftubuntulups, i wish i hadnt upgraded to 3.0.1, it segfaults all the time and other weird crap05:53
iFvwm.05:53
bobboyairtonix , so that proggie will help me?05:54
xtrememertxi cant watch vidoes or play games :(05:54
ubuntutlupsi updated to i dont know version05:54
ubuntutlupsi follow so many tutorials that i dont know what i have done05:54
gord_bobboy, I'm going to assume you haven't gone out of your way to install drivers, so depending on what video device you have installed (find out with lspci), there is most likely a better driver than the one you are currently using.05:54
airtonixbobboy, in a debug kind of way yes....it may have just been the cat command used on the right /dev path05:54
iFvwmxtrememertx: of course, video, game, important thing05:54
SchmittyDoesIthow do i put a terminal on hotkey?05:54
tony_Can anybody help me out, I can't get my wireless card working in Ubuntu05:55
airtonixbobboy, you should examine the post made by tselliot on the ubuntuforums05:55
iFvwmxtrememertx: but why need windows05:55
airtonixbobboy, posts*05:55
Flannelubuntutlups: That's not a good place to be.  We can't really help much with software that you got outside of the repos.05:55
xtrememertxi'm getting low fps on ubuntu05:55
Macrosoftubuntutlups, if its working i would just leave it as is, no need to have to beta version05:55
Flannelubuntutlups: Especially if you aren't sure what you've done.05:55
airtonixSchmittyDoesIt, alt + f2, then type : gconf-editor05:55
gord_SchmittyDoesIt, I believe gnome has its own hotkey program, but xbindkeys is a more classical solution05:55
xtrememertxu were there yesterday right ?05:55
ubuntutlupsi cant run firefox05:55
^Phantom^i need to be typing this in terminal, right?05:55
Flannel^Phantom^: yes05:55
Macrosoftubuntutlups, any error message05:56
iFvwmxtrememertx: yes, but i forgot sth.05:56
Macrosoft?05:56
tony_Can anybody help me out, I can't get my wireless card working in Ubuntu05:56
SchmittyDoesItok thanx05:56
gord_commands you recieve here will 99% of the time need to be in a console05:56
airtonixSchmittyDoesIt, navigate to : apps -> metacity -> keybinding_commands05:56
xtrememertxoh05:56
gord_(whenever they cant be done using a run dialogue)05:56
Flannel^Phantom^: and in the directory with poweriso, and the .daa file (if you were to use those command directly)05:56
ubuntutlups-.-05:56
xtrememertxanyways even a small avi file is laggy :(05:56
iFvwmxtrememertx: so sad05:56
ubuntutlupscan some one take 5 minutes05:56
Macrosoftubuntutlups, what did you mean you cant run firefox? can you give more detail?05:56
ronnaldI'm getting something that looks like codec problems while playing movies, how do i fix it?05:57
^Phantom^i got poweriso 1.1 from softpedia.com in a .tar.gz file05:57
airtonixSchmittyDoesIt, actually (close all that ) easier way is : system -> preferences -> keyboard shortcuts05:57
ubuntutlupson once i click on the firefox icon it says  Failed to execute child process "firefox" (No such file or directory)05:57
gord_xtrememertx, you're probably missing video drivers, or the codecs you're using are horrid. try either getting new drivers if you havent already, and for the love of FSM get VLC05:57
iFvwmSchmittyDoesIt: need keybind? xkeybinding is good one.05:57
airtonixSchmittyDoesIt, scroll about 1/3 the way down till you find " Run a terminal"05:57
physically_fit!wifi | tony_05:58
ubottutony_: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs05:58
bobboygord_ how would i find such drivers? and if i have them installed? lol05:58
airtonixSchmittyDoesIt, you can set your keybind to open a term there05:58
SchmittyDoesItairtonix: excellant05:58
Macrosoftubuntutlups, open a terminal window and type firefox, it might give some more info05:58
xtrememertxgord_ i tried using i810 and  intel drivers .. i cant even watch youtube   or play simple games like bzflag05:58
tony_physically_fit: I've tried that already05:58
bobboyairtonix , im looking at his posts now05:58
gord_bobboy, try "lspci|grep video"05:58
airtonixSchmittyDoesIt, the gconf way i was about to lead you through is for other keybindings you cant find in that simple gui05:58

iFvwmxtrememertx: nnn, i remember sth, but not skill at intel video card.05:59
ubuntutlupslook this tutorial please.05:59
Macrosoftubuntutlups, yeah, if you run that command it gave you it will download and install it for you05:59
airtonixSchmittyDoesIt, that gui really needs a blank etry down the bottom that is for entering a path to a script and designating a hotkey05:59
ubuntutlupsmmm.. i cant execute FFX05:59
gord_bobboy, probe "lspci" yourself then, check for things that might resemble a video device05:59

gord_bobboy, then everything should be working correctly. My only explanation is that windows set an incorrect resolution or that your system is for some reason defaulting to a lower resolution. Xrandr should give you your current resolution, however you can check by opening an image of a known size and comparing it at 100% size to the area of your desktop06:11

qwerfdKingbuzzo, sudo su07:16
FlannelKingbuzzo: you don't want to.  Use sudo instead.07:16
Taiga-SKharley_, don't use it - simple as that07:16
harley_well duh07:16
brolly81fresh start favro so what now, dude i would have never of thought it would be this complicated07:16
phantomcircuitharley_, Applications --> Sound & Video --> Brasero CD Burning07:16
sfer2harley_: the best burning software I've found is k3b07:17
cHahmmm07:17
Kingbuzzothen how do I save files to my /usr07:17
CatEaterthat might do it, but just rebooting sometimes doesn't reset pci devices07:17
iFvwmqwerfd: what' the name of the network icon in xubuntu?07:17
sfer2It burns iso images easily too07:17
iFvwmthe soft name qwerfd07:17
CatEateri would remove power and battery for 10s07:17
_2harley_ but why do you want nero ?    xcdroast "nautilus burring app" k3b  devede    there are lots of apps native to linux.07:17
qwerfdiFvwm, it is the 'nm-applet' it is not specific to xubuntu....07:17
phantomcircuitCatEater, alright well i guess ill power down and unplug the power?07:17
iFvwmnm-applet?07:17
qwerfdiFvwm, version 0.6.6 of the nm-applet07:17
iFvwmqwerfd: ok.07:17
Taiga-SKimo xubuntu is way too broken for regular use.07:18
Kingbuzzohow can I save files to /usr/local/share/games/mame?07:18
qwerfdiFvwm, this should be a standard applet installed with all ubuntu 8.04 versions07:18
harley_ok simple qestion if i download a nero for windows run it in wine will it work07:18
CatEateralso briefly disconnect battery from both laptop and mouse07:18
phantomcircuitharley_, i already said no07:18
_2Kingbuzzo save to home and   sudo mv file /new/path07:18
harley_o07:18
harley_why not?07:18
Taiga-SKKingbuzzo, only under root unfortunately. but you could try changing the ownership of the folder07:18
qwerfdKingbuzzo, sudo cp what_ever_file_you_have /usr/local/share/games/mame/07:18
favrobrolly81: clean disk? - make it ext307:18
iFvwmqwerfd: so, you can right click it. and select "editor"07:19
CatEaterharley_: same reason you can't run windows drivers in wine07:19
Kingbuzzo_how can I save files to /usr/local/share/games/mame?07:19
phantomcircuitharley_, because wine doesnt support sending ACPI msgs over ATA07:19
harley_k then07:19
FlannelKingbuzzo: use sudo to copy them there.07:19
favrobrolly81: is this a disk in the comp or a usb etc disk?07:19
Cm101might anyone be able to render assistance with regards to an external monitor not working when booting from a live cd (version 8) on a laptop?07:19
Taiga-SKKingbuzzo, use chown07:19

harley_sorry iuf i was kinda a jerk when i logged on just im like going crazy07:20
_2harley_ you "might" be able to use it in a vmware vbox or qemu  vertual machine   but    again i have to wonder why.07:20
qwerfdKingbuzzo_,  sudo cp what_ever_file_you_have /usr/local/share/games/mame/07:20
harley_the iso or i could burn a cd in it07:20
brolly81favro: logical, primary, extended partion?07:20
iFvwmqwerfd: and check if "roaming mode" is in your "manaul config" menu.07:20
Kingbuzzo_thanks07:20
favrobrolly81: is this a disk in the comp or a usb etc disk?07:21
brolly81its in the comp07:21
_2harley_ linux can natively mount .iso files   and there are serveral good burning apps.07:21
favrobrolly81: logical is what I'd use07:21
harley_ya but the one that on linux ubuntu 5.10 yes its old dosent work07:21
qwerfdiFvwm, yes it is enabled07:21
Flannelharley_: have you considered just upgrading?07:22
Flannelharley_: you can go from 5.10 to 6.06, and then straight from 6.06 to 8.0407:22
harley_are you being smart i cant i cant burn a friggin iso07:22
Flannelharley_: You don't need an iso to upgrade.07:22
_2harley_ cd or dvd iso ?07:22
harley_cd07:22
brolly81favro: i dont have that option with my partition editor only primary is available, does it matter?07:22
phantomcircuitharley_, this is very easy to do07:22
harley_even if i did upgrade my sound drivers dont work07:23
_2harley_ try xcdroast   it works in 5.1007:23
sfer2!etiquette > harley_07:23
ubottuharley_, please see my private message07:23
=== user__ is now known as woodong50
phantomcircuitCatEater, nope still doesnt work07:23
Flannelharley_: When you upgrade, you'll get newer drivers whcih may work, *or* you'll be able to successfully burn a CD07:23
airtonixharley_, shipit.net07:23
favrobrolly81: nope- just went with what you gave - you can only have 4 primary partitions07:23
harley_hhmm.... how do i upgrade07:23
CatEaterdid you disconnect battery from both laptop and mouse?07:24
airtonixharley_, https://shipit.ubuntu.com/07:24
harley_ok so i order a cd wait 8 weeks hget then a nother upgrades out07:24
Taiga-SKdoesn't sudo aptitude dist-upgrade do the trick07:24

Taiga-SK-?-07:25
airtonixharley_, wont be that soon07:25
WIGGMPkso today I decide to leave my laptop suspended, come home from work, open the lid.. as I expected the graphics were messed up so I restarted the GDM via CTRL+ALT+Backspace.. it hangs.. restart the computer and now the root LVM is missing... wtf is going on???07:25
harley_minnasota07:25
Flannelharley_: contact the minnesota LoCo team, they can get you a CD a lot quicker.07:25
sfer2harley: Up the top you should be able to see an "Updates Available" icon, then when you click that just follow the steps (because it will say there is a newer distro available)07:25
Taiga-SKwow he lives in us&a07:25
harley_were did you think i lived07:25
_2harley_ most of these guys don't remember all the breakage in upgrading from 5.10 to 6.6   if you aren't prepared to fix things, i can't with a clear conciense advise upgrading from 5.10 to 8.4 reguardless of the number of steps.07:25
phantomcircuitCatEater, i did for the laptop07:25
Taiga-SKharley_, europe at least07:25
Flannelharley_: #ubuntu-minnesota07:25
phantomcircuitCatEater, bluetooth device is still not even registered on the laptop though07:26
CatEaterpreemptive warning, after all the physical stuff i know 0 about bt07:26
harley_dude i dont even want ubuntu this was like a emergency i want to burn my puppy linux iso and use that07:26
Flannel_2: There wasn't any breakage going from Breezy to Dapper07:27
Taiga-SKharley_, btw what's a puppy linux?07:27
ASrockwhen using audacity with ubuntu i cant hear anything...audio works for everything exept audacity, any ideas?07:27
CatEaternext i'd try messing with the battery in the mouse and placing it farther than six inches away from the base at two different angles07:27
harley_i personaly would rather use bck tracks then this07:27
phantomcircuitCatEater, crap i think it's physically broken07:27
_2Flannel heh  then why were the channels swamped with people asking how to fix things  ;/07:27
phantomcircuitCatEater, lspci doesn't list it07:27
WIGGMPkCan ANYONE help me.......!!!!?????? My computer NO LONGER see's my ROOT partition.. after coming back from "suspend"07:27
harley_google it its a linux for slower computers and there like a billion versoins07:28
CatEaterwon't klist the interface or the mouse?07:28
Taiga-SKASrock, audacity seems unstable try using XMPP or BMP. they're similar07:28
CatEaters/klist/list/07:28
Flannel_2: Because they used third party repositories, and did other unsafe things.  Breezy to dapper was no worse than any other upgrade.  But we're getting offtopic.07:28
phantomcircuitCatEater, lspci should list the bluetooth mini pci controller07:28
phantomcircuitbut it doesnt07:28
Taiga-SKWIGGMPk, mount -a07:28
ASrockTaiga-SK: what exactly is XMPP and BMP?07:28
WIGGMPkTaiga-SK: im sorry can you be more specific...?07:29
Taiga-SKASrock, programs of course. alternatives to audacity07:29
ASrockoh07:29
CatEatersince it's mini pci, you could check that it's still socketed07:29
Taiga-SKWIGGMPk, well just try using the mount -a command07:29
_2Flannel "no worse than any other upgrade." != "no breakage"     but rather == the usual amount of breakage07:29
ASrocksrry i thought you said it seems unstable using xmpp or bmp07:29
WIGGMPkTaiga-SK: it returns with no feedback.. im in the liveCD right now07:29
ASrockTaiga-SK: which do you think i should try first?07:30
Flannel_2: Your earlier statement implied there were more issues than normal going to dapper.  But again, we're getting offtopic, if you'd like to continue, I'm in #ubuntu-offtopic07:30
Taiga-SKWIGGMPk, oh then mount it the usual way then07:30
harley_ok i have the k3b thing now what07:30
Wickedwhen i install lirc...it just freezes up when it goes to load the lirc modules....and i see this in dmesg: http://pastebin.com/m783c5f2807:30
WIGGMPkTaiga-SK: when i try to us "mount /dev/sda1" it returns... mount: can't find /dev/sda1 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab07:31
Taiga-SKASrock, BMP is newer but XMMS (or whatever the name is) should be more stable.07:31

Taiga-SKWIGGMPk, shit bad luck then. i can't help you. maybe you could get to the grub console by adding init=/bin/sh (as far as i remember) to the kernel options at boot time (not from live cd) and then trying to repair.07:33

WIGGMPkairtonix: well i see the paritions with "sudo fdisk -ls" but i cant mount them07:48
