[00:00] <loquitus_of_bor1> How do you find out what version of Ubuntu you are using? Is there some "ver" command?
[00:00] <unop> keithclark, i've just gotten back - gimme a couple of minutes
[00:00] <Ward1983> Pirate_Hunter: thanx for trying to help but what you told me is unrelated to my question, as my question was about a window / screen of the installation process
[00:00] <afallenhope> J-n, apparently it was an issue with the permissions. so... all those work arounds.. were pointless lol.
[00:00] <Jack_Sparrow> loquitus_of_bor1 lsb_release -a
[00:00] <zipper> est14, eek okay
[00:00] <bring2towels> eddwinpaz, like "sudo mkdir /etc/www/new" (or whatever) and "sudo chown username:username /etc/www/new"
[00:00] <est14> zipper, is it just writing an "eth0" empty file in the dir?
[00:00] <bring2towels> loquitus_of_bor1, you can do "uname -r"
[00:00] <skylar> why is flash no working?
[00:01] <eddwinpaz> BM i need to create new individual folders to diferent scripts and using the console would take me more time , reather than creating it graphicaly dont you think ?
[00:01] <GPhant> has anyone had a sound problem in Hardy like i have? then downgraded to Gusty and not have it anymore?
[00:01] <bring2towels> loquitus_of_bor1, that will show the kernel version, there is another command as well that will give more info which im forgetting
[00:01] <BM> edd: do you have them arranged how you want already?
[00:01] <zipper> est14, i'm not really that comfortable with the GUI to be honest, ubuntu might have a different way of setting up network cards now. And no, you need to add a bit more than that, but seeing that it "works" in the GUI, i would be cautious about adding anything directly in the config file. It might conflict with the GUI
[00:01] <bring2towels> skylar, where did you install flash from?
[00:02] <skylar> my home directory
[00:02] <skylar> and then tried synaptic
[00:02] <est14> zipper, any clues as to where to go next?
[00:02] <bring2towels> !who | skylar
[00:02] <deevals> so im a total noob how do i  install zipped exe file?
[00:02] <BM> eddwinpaz: do you have them arranged how you want already?
[00:03] <zipper> est14, if the GUI shows it as working, cant you just use that to configure it to use dhcp instead of manually doing it?
[00:03] <Ttech> .12123kco2
[00:03] <Ttech> oops
[00:03] <bring2towels> skylar, ok so you mean you downloaded it off adobe's site? if you use synaptic, try enabling the non-free software source, and make sure to install flash-nonfree
[00:03] <bring2towels> bbl
[00:03] <est14> zipper, I'm using dhcp
[00:03] <skylar> bring2towels, my home directory .. flash non-free si not working, do I need a reboot?
[00:03] <unop> keithclark, ok, let me know when you're ready.
[00:03] <eddwinpaz> BM can we private message ? it would take just a second..
[00:03] <zipper> est14, but....?
[00:03] <Pirate_Hunter> Ward1983: self correcting your errors i understood that the question was that you didnt know what to type in which case you didnt know the hd to use considering hds are in alphabetical order i.e. hda (1hd), hdb(2nd hd), hdc(3rd hd), it shouldnt be hard for you to work out which hd to use but to make sure you shouldve read fdisk as fdisk -l lists your current hds, so i believe what i told you wasnt unrelated to your question
[00:04] <est14> zipper, which takes me to the other part of my question, since I see no "wireless" beside "ppp" and "wired" interfaces.
[00:04] <deevals> how do i open an exe zip file?
[00:04] <skylar> where does the .so need to go by default?
[00:04] <loquitus_of_bor1> deevals: wine?
[00:04] <est14> zipper, it seems to configure OK, but I just can't reach the network.
[00:04] <deevals> win?
[00:04] <skylar> where is firefox plugins?
[00:05] <pengo> hi
[00:05] <unop> deevals, you normally can't use exe files on ubuntu - not unless you use wine
[00:05] <Ward1983> Pirate_Hunter: well i know the HD i need to install to is sde
[00:05] <zipper> est14, if you type 'ifconfig' in a terminal, does it look like its configured properly?
[00:05] <est14> zipper, indeed.
[00:05] <deevals> what are the file types that at exicutable on ubuntu?
[00:05] <Pirate_Hunter> can someone help me understand why screen is not allowing me to scroll up when using normal terminal window yet i can scroll on my 1st window with irc
[00:05] <keithclark_> unop: welcome back.
[00:06] <deus> Jack_Sparrow: hey Jack
[00:06] <Jack_Sparrow> hey
[00:06] <unop> keithclark, ok, is that dpkg-reconfigure command still running?
[00:06] <deus> Jack_Sparrow: I found the problem we were discussing this afternoon
[00:06] <keithclark_> unop: done
[00:06] <zipper> est14, interresting.... then it *should* work. Can you ping anything on LAN?
[00:06] <unop> keithclark, it finished successfully?
[00:06] <est14> zipper, nope.
[00:06] <zipper> oO
[00:06] <pengo> i want to upgrade my laptop hard drive.. is there a straight forward way to copy everything across to it without reinstalling?
[00:07] <keithclark_> unop: sec, how do I change my name from kei..._ to keithclark
[00:07] <Funkah> keitchlark:  /nick newname
[00:07] <deevals> how do i use any of the zipped files i dl? i clik them it brings up some box that dose nothing for me
[00:07] <deus> Jack_Sparrow: I found out that my supermicro server is also subjective to this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/148466
[00:07] <BM> Anyone have any idea why I can't run snes9x in fullscreen mode on my ps3 unless I use a 'fullscreen' ps3-video-mode (and thus have the associated overscan issues)?
[00:07] <zipper> est14, do you have several network interfaces (eth0, eth1, eth2)? Even if dhcp should be the default setting, try making sure it is for all of your interfaces
[00:07] <Jack_Sparrow> deus any fix for it
[00:08] <deus> Jack_Sparrow: However this bug is solved in the ubuntu 8.10 release which seems to run fine. Have to wait another month before the final ubuntu version is released
[00:08] <keithclark_> unop: no, did nothing
[00:08] <Jack_Sparrow> deus glad you found out what was going on
[00:08] <deus> Jack_Sparrow: I've tested the latest alpha of 8.10 and I haven't encountered any problems yet.
[00:08] <Funkah> deus: Have they got the artwork done yet?
[00:08] <est14> zipper, how can I tell? Isn't eth0 the default wired interface?
[00:08] <histo> Is there a way to use tightvncserver with vnc-java?
[00:09] <deus> Jack_Sparrow: yeah, pitty there is no ease bugfix :)
[00:09] <deus> Funkah: no idea, i'm running ubuntu server without any dirty graphics :P
[00:09] <Funkah> deus: Darn :p
[00:09] <unop> keithclark, ok. run this command, it will return a URL to you, paste that in here for me.  which pastebinit || sudo aptitude install pastebinit;  pastebinit < /etc/X11/xorg.conf.messed_up
[00:10] <keithclark_> unop: see, I don't see your msgs.
[00:10] <zipper> est14, dont think you can say one of them is "default" if you have several. I believe they are mapped (0,1,2,3 ect) according to their IRQ numbers. My theory is that you're configuring one of your other interfaces, that doesnt have a cable plugged in. But then again, if eth0 properly gets an IP from the dhcp server, that shouldn't be the case
[00:10] <deus> ok i'm off to bed. Good night everyone :)
[00:10] <unop> keithclark, to change your nick.   /nick keithclark
[00:11] <maestrojed> I have built an ubuntu box to play with and learn on.  Now when ever I try to "sudo" to gain admin privileges I get an error  "/etc/sudoers is mode 0777, should be 0440".  If I try to change those permissions I get "Operation not permitted". I am sure this is my fault but I am not sure when or what I did to cause this (I think I messed it up a while ago).  Can anyone help me?
[00:11] <Funkah> Night deus.
[00:11] <Pirate_Hunter> can someone help me understand why screen is not allowing me to scroll up when using normal terminal window yet i can scroll on my 1st  window with irc
[00:11] <est14> zipper, my machine has 2 ethernet connectors, if that's what you mean.
[00:11] <unop> maestrojed, you'll need to boot up into recovery mode to change the permissions on this file;
[00:11] <maestrojed> unop: oh wow, ok thanks
[00:12] <zipper> est14, yeah. Then you should have eth0 and eth1
[00:12] <est14> zipper, please disregard what I just said :(.
[00:12] <zipper> will do =)
[00:12] <est14> !networking
[00:12] <pengo> how do i upgrade my hard drive?
[00:13] <est14> !network
[00:13] <zipper> est14, you got it working or?
[00:13] <keithclark> unop: http://pastebin.com/f58507714
[00:13] <est14> zipper, no, that's the problem.
[00:13] <est14> zipper, and it used to...
[00:13] <Pirate_Hunter> anyone here use screen other than doing ssh connections, can someoen help me with screen?
[00:14] <hd420> how do I generate a UUID for my boot device for use with Hardy from the "root partition not found" emergency shell
[00:14] <hd420> single user-mode doesn't work either
[00:14] <keithclark> unop: now that is the messed up version, right?
[00:14] <hd420> was thinking of burning a live CD
[00:14] <un> anyone know anything hardy's openoffice.org-writer2latex bug... i've tried a debdiff, but can't get the build-deps... debian pkg didn't work either...
[00:14] <zipper> est14, so uhm... what did you do to make it not work anymore? =P
[00:14] <unop> keithclark, right, we'll try and work with this one - as dpkg-reconfigure fails for you
[00:14] <kevin__> I am trying to enable a PCcard wireless N Linksys card on my grandma's laptop, but I do not think Xubuntu is seeing it. Model WPC300N V1
[00:14] <unop> keithclark, what does this command return?  lsmod | grep -i glrx
[00:15] <est14> zipper, I wish I knew...:(.
[00:15] <sako> tesst
[00:15] <est14> zipper, maybe trying to make the wireless work.
[00:15] <BM> Anyone have any idea why I can't run snes9x in fullscreen mode on my ps3 unless I use a 'fullscreen' ps3-video-mode (and thus have the associated overscan issues)?
[00:15] <b3lorixx> hi, ubuntu sayd fiorefox is rtunning but it doesnt show the window. if i open up terminal it makes me force quit it any idea
[00:15] <keithclark> unop: this is how I got in trouble last time.  I will trust you.
[00:16] <keithclark> unop: nothing
[00:16] <unop> keithclark, i understand - but it seems like our only way forward now, i'll try not to leave you hanging.
[00:16] <keithclark> unop: ok, I trust.
[00:16] <est14> Is there any way to reinstall the networking part from the install disk?
[00:16] <unop> keithclark, ok. how about this then.  sudo modprobe fglrx; lsmod | grep -i glrx
[00:16] <zipper> est14, making wireless work is usually not easier than making wired work. But in any case, you should try setting all of your interfaces (eth0 and eth1) to use dhcp. That way you're sure that the one thats connected is actually configured properly
[00:17] <b3lorixx> ﻿hi, ubuntu says firefox is running but it doesnt show the window. if i open up terminal it makes me force quit it any idea, and it also does this to amny other programs
[00:17] <keithclark> unop: Not loading fglrx module; not used in /etc/X11/xorg.con
[00:17] <hd420> how do I generate a UUID for my boot device for use with Hardy from the "root partition not found" emergency shell?
[00:18] <chachin> hmm
[00:18] <danbh_intrepid> !blkid | hd420  does this help?
[00:18] <est14> zipper, what troubles me is that I don't even get a chance to config the wireless interface.
[00:18] <est14> zipper, what troubles me is that I don't even get a chance to config the wireless interface.
[00:18] <unop> keithclark, ok, cool.  now, let's see what ati card you have.   lspci | grep -i vga
[00:18] <b3lorixx> ﻿hi, ubuntu says firefox is running but it doesnt show the window. if i open up terminal it makes me force quit it any idea, and it also does this to amny other programs
[00:18] <danbh_intrepid> b3lorixx: its just ff crashing
[00:19] <zipper> est14, chances are your wireless interface is not supported. A lot of wireless chips arent. You might need to install a driver for it. Try searching the forums and/or google for your specific wireless card
[00:19] <keithclark> unop: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon R100 QD [Radeon 7200]
[00:19] <b3lorixx> danbh_interid, yes but it happens with all teh programs it doesnt do it when i first start ubuntu up it only does it when the computer on for a long time
[00:19] <Funkah> b3lorixx:  A memory leak?
[00:20] <b3lorixx> Funkah: how can i tell
[00:20] <Funkah> b3lorixx: Well, I think that getting a slow computer / having trouble loading programs when the computer has been on for a time is a decent indicator, but I don't really know what I'm talking about.  If anyone else does, please jump in.
[00:20] <est14> zipper, hmm... you might be very right.
[00:21] <unop> keithclark, ok. gimme a second to create your conf file.
[00:21] <b3lorixx> Funkah, yes but ive had ubuntu installed MANY other times and its never done this
[00:21] <zipper> est14, if it is tho, it should show up in 'ifconfig' as wlan0
[00:21] <Funkah> b3lorixx: IS there a program you use regularly that you haven't had on previous installations?
[00:21] <keithclark> unop: you go nuts....take all the time in the world.
[00:21] <est14> zipper, let me do that.
[00:21] <b3lorixx> Funkah: thats a negative
[00:22] <b3lorixx> Funkah, i do have a restricted dribver installed but ive had that installed many other times 2
[00:22] <dr3mro> i am using ubuntu and main menu dont work i tried to reinstall applets but nothing where is the conf files for applets ?
[00:22] <Funkah> b3lorixx: Perhaps you could look into mtrace?  I haven't used it before, but this is what it seems to be for.
[00:23] <danbh_intrepid> dr3mro: try the gnome irc
[00:23] <est14> zipper, it doesn't!
[00:23] <ShiroUsagi> Hi. I was wondering, where does the python-nautilus tagging extension keep file tags? And are there any other stable and working solutions for file tagging in linux?
[00:23] <EvilDaemon> dr3mro: #gnome
[00:24] <est14> zipper, gotta go now... thanks a lot and talk to you later...
[00:24] <zipper> est14, yeah, i didnt think so. Good news then, you're in for some fun =). Search the forums for answers on how to get your wireless card working. If you're using a laptop, try searching for the model
[00:24] <zipper> np
[00:24] <est14> zipper, OK, thanks and goodbye!
[00:25] <dr3mro> ok
[00:26] <un> hello, as politely as I can ask, do any of you know of a fix for openoffice.org-writer2latex... my dpkg is broken all the way... I have 9 years of linux experience, but this on gets me... I know it's because of unopkg's bad return code...
[00:26] <amd64> I just set irc_conf_mode to 1 and I'm still seeing exit/enter notifications
[00:26] <amd64> why is this
[00:26] <d4de> Anyone know of a fix for the bug where 8.04 occasionally hangs on "Starting bluetooth" when booting?  I just had to reboot 3 times for it to boot all the way.  I can switch terminals with CTRL+ALT+F(1-12) and login but some functionality is lost (e.g. My UK keyboard settings revert to US etc)
[00:26] <jrib> un: pastebin the command you are running and the full output, maybe someone will recognize it
[00:27] <amd64> test
[00:27] <jrib> amd64: -ENOCONTEXT what client?
[00:27] <un> jrib, ? sudo apt-get install openoffice.org-writer2latex

[00:28] <Daps> yes, even after reboot
[00:28] <amd64> test
[00:28] <amd64> test
[00:28] <d4de> Daps - Is it a problem with flash working/local audio not, or vice versa?
[00:28] <Funkah> Daps:  Could you give us some more information?  Did it install without sound?  HAs it gone off for no reason?  Were you doing something and it went off?
[00:29] <Daps> i just installed ubuntu last night for the first time
[00:29] <Daps> no it installed with sound
[00:29] <jrib> amd64: you should just need to right click on the channel name on the left and uncheck "show joint/part messages"
[00:29] <SebNaitsabes> is it possible to get my last.fm password from Rythombox?
[00:29] <BM> Anyone have any idea why I can't run snes9x in fullscreen mode on my ps3 unless I use a 'fullscreen' ps3-video-mode (and thus have the associated overscan issues)?
[00:29] <amd64> jrib, thank you :)
[00:29] <un> jrib, it already has a bug report... hang on... http://paste.ubuntu.com/48434/plain/ it just hangs... forever...
[00:29] <amd64> jrib, do you happen to know how to chat my font colour
[00:29] <unop> keithclark, can we PM?
[00:29] <keithclark> unop: of course
[00:29] <amd64> jrib, I've tried several settings and it's still invisible :(
[00:30] <Daps> it installed with sound, i did the online update and when i restarted the sound started coming out of a logitec headset i had plugged in.. now i will get sound from that but not my speakers
[00:30] <S3lo> #join eeebuntu
[00:30] <jrib> amd64: not offhand, check the preferences in the menu at the top
[00:30] <jrib> amd64: what bug?
[00:30] <amd64> jrib, I tried all the preferences but no luck - thanks for your help
[00:30] <amd64> jrib, I never said anything about a bug
[00:30] <jrib> amd64: erm, sorry ignore that
[00:30] <jrib> un: what bug?
[00:30] <amd64> jrib, it's ok
[00:30] <Daps> no audio is working, no flash, nothing
[00:31] <hotmonkeyluv> is it adviseable to put /boot onto a different partition if I'm planning on having several installs of different distros?
[00:31] <danbh_intrepid> hotmonkeyluv: yes
[00:31] <hotmonkeyluv> danbh_intrepid:  why is that?
[00:31] <un> jrib, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/hardy/+source/writer2latex/+bug/220911
[00:32] <hotmonkeyluv> danbh_intrepid:  and what is a good size for 4 distros to share that /boot partition?
[00:32] <danbh_intrepid> hotmonkeyluv: wait, different distros?  Im not sure, but if they are all debian based distros...
[00:32] <hotmonkeyluv> danbh_intrepid:  nope, suse, ubuntu, slack, gentoo
[00:32] <danbh_intrepid> hotmonkeyluv: do they all use grub?
[00:33] <hotmonkeyluv> danbh_intrepid:  yeah
[00:33] <Daps> anyone on the sound issue.. ?? if you can help please IM me.. i really want to learn linux... but i want sound too... lol
[00:33] <hotmonkeyluv> Daps:  what's up?
[00:33] <Daps> i had sound on install but now no sound
[00:33] <danbh_intrepid> hotmonkeyluv: the benefit of having one /boot is so that you have a single install of grub.  Otherwise, you end up with multiple installs of grub, and only the last installed actually works
[00:33] <d4de> Anyone know of a fix for the bug where 8.04 occasionally hangs on startup with "Starting bluetooth" when booting?  (despite having no bluetooth hardware). I just had to reboot 3 times for it to boot all the way.  I can switch terminals with CTRL+ALT+F(1-12) and login but some functionality is lost (e.g. My UK keyboard settings revert to US etc.)
[00:34] <hotmonkeyluv> check the sound settings when right-clicking on the speaker icon near the shutdown button
[00:34] <hotmonkeyluv> danbh_intrepid:  but doesn't the install save the kernel in /boot?
[00:34] <danbh_intrepid> hotmonkeyluv: the person that gave me this advice said 200mb should be fine, I think thats tight.  I'm not sure.
[00:34] <un> _Zeus_, nobody here knows about that bug, or how to fix it without a working dpkg... sry for upsetting you...
[00:34] <crabgrass> anyone think they can help me with an nvidia driver program?
[00:35] <Paddy_EIRE> !nvidia
[00:35] <_Zeus_> un: sorry then
[00:35] <_Zeus_> i sure don't
[00:35] <hotmonkeyluv> danbh_intrepid:  does the kernel get stored in /boot? or just the grub pointers to the different kenels?
[00:35] <crabgrass> Paddy_EIRE, ubottu, that's not working
[00:35] <IntuitiveNipple> For multiple kernels, /boot with 512MB minimum is probably a good recommendation. That allows for back-ups and updates without hitting the limit
[00:35] <crabgrass> there's nothing in my restricted driver manager
[00:35] <_Zeus_> hotmonkeyluv: the kernel is stored in /boot IIRC
[00:36] <danbh_intrepid> hotmonkeyluv: well, I have 2 kernels installed atm, and it takes 25mb, so it sounds like 200mb should be fine
[00:36] <_Zeus_> crabgrass: then you don't need any restricted drivers
[00:36] <Paddy_EIRE> !envy
[00:36] <Paddy_EIRE> crabgrass: try envy

[00:36] <crabgrass> _Zeus_: trust me, i do. i was using them just two weeks ago, and now i can't even drag a window across the screen without lagging out
[00:36] <_Zeus_> crabgrass: oh... sorry
[00:36] <_Zeus_> viktor: run it from the terminal
[00:36] <crabgrass> _Zeus_: no worries.
[00:36] <jrib> un: you understand the bug tracker claims the bug is not present in the version you are installing?
[00:36] <un> jrib, yup
[00:37] <viktor> i tried
[00:37] <viktor> i typed python and then ...
[00:37] <hotmonkeyluv> danbh_intrepid:  can I install grub to a separate hard drive than the kernel is on?
[00:37] <un> jrib, i don't know what's going on... i found that debdiff, but cannot compile against it... so i'm stuck with a broke dpkg
[00:37] <_Zeus_> viktor: just type ./filename.py
[00:37] <jrib> un: all the error messages I see on the tracker have dpkg returning an error.  In your case it just hangs forever?
[00:37] <viktor> /home/user/desktop/pythonfile.py
[00:37] <viktor> ahhh let me try
[00:38] <pan_> how do i use xkill
[00:38] <un> jrib, yea, the unopkg never returns from lala land... it only returns an error if the user had it previously installed... which i did not
[00:38] <_Zeus_> pan_: apt+f2, type xkill
[00:38] <pan_> im not in gnome
[00:38] <pan_> im in fluxbox
[00:38] <pan_> so i'd type it in console

[00:38] <Guest10840> Hi, I'm really unfamiliar with raid arrays, and my uncle set one up that aperently didn't work. I think he was aiming for Raid type 3 (two harddisks for data and one for redundancy). Anyways I ended up with one harddisk not in use, the other for my root, and the last for /usr. I don't have enough space to download a kubuntu installer and re-install it, so I don't know what to do. Any help or on-line resources would be greatly appreciated.
[00:39] <pan_> i use xkill -all
[00:39] <pan_> tells me to press the window i want t kill
[00:39] <pan_> it wont kill it
[00:39] <_Zeus_> Guest10840: delete some stuff?
[00:39] <_Zeus_> pan_: what are you trying to kill?
[00:39] <lucax> i try to listen a song and cant do it, i get this error, La reproducción de esta película requiere un complemento Decodificador audio/x-asf-unknown que no está instalado.
[00:39] <pan_> firefox
[00:39] <Guest10840> It's partitioned so there is very little space. I only have 1 gig in root
[00:39] <jrib> un: have you purged the package and tried installing again?  debian tracker claims that worked
[00:40] <_Zeus_> Guest10840: what do you mean?  a kubuntu cd is only 700mb
[00:40] <un> pan_, try htop to kill that process... then the kill -9 (command) and killall -9 (command)...
[00:40] <_Zeus_> pan_: press alt+f2, type sudo killall firefox;sudo killall firefox-3.0
[00:40] <pan_> k
[00:40] <un> jrib, package won't purge, reinstall, remove, or install... errors for all
[00:40] <pan_> sudo killall firefox3.0
[00:40] <Guest10840> yes, so then I would only have 300mb on that harddisk, can I fit the root (except /usr) on that?
[00:40] <jimdandy> Hello People!! I am trying to build the vendor-supplied version of the zd1211b/g driver. I believe I have correctly installed the linux sources, headers, and build-essential, but make dies a horrible death (well, with an error, really). Would someone please help me?
[00:40] <pan_> ok
[00:40] <jrib> un: what errors?  pastebin them
[00:41] <jimdandy> err, how do I pastebin?
[00:41] <jrib> !pastebin > jimdandy
[00:41] <yomm> 'Night all
[00:41] <crabgrass> nothing is working, and the forums are dead silent. short of a reinstall, how can i set my graphics back to square one and reinstall everything?
[00:42] <un> jrib, apt-get install (anything) (-+f) : http://paste.ubuntu.com/48438/plain/
[00:42] <rakesh> hi
[00:42] <viktor> _Zeus_: sorry but no success so far :/
[00:42] <rakesh> y
[00:43] <d4de> Anyone know of a fix for the bug where 8.04 occasionally hangs on startup with "Starting bluetooth" when booting?  (despite having no bluetooth hardware). I just had to reboot 3 times for it to boot all the way.  I can switch terminals with CTRL+ALT+F(1-12) and login but some functionality is lost (e.g. My UK keyboard settings revert to US etc.)
[00:43] <rakesh> ok
[00:43] <jrib> !xconfig > crabgrass
[00:43] <jimdandy> ok, i think my pastebin url is: http://paste.ubuntu.com/48439/
[00:43] <_Zeus_> viktor: what did i tsay?
[00:43] <_Zeus_> looks good, jimdandy
[00:43] <FluxD> !vsftpd
[00:43] <viktor> file not found...
[00:43] <crabgrass> jrib: i've tried that, too
[00:43] <un> jrib, apt-get remove brings about: http://paste.ubuntu.com/48440/plain/
[00:43] <_Zeus_> viktor: Desktop has a capital D
[00:44] <FluxD> Hi, I have a question regarding vsftpd and FXP support. Can someone help?
[00:44] <jrib> crabgrass: that gets you back to square one.  What driver did you pick?
[00:44] <jimmmym> Hi guys, today i have been experiencing weird problems with firefox...It randomly shuts down, different pages different times
[00:44] <_Zeus_> jimdandy: the source looks bad to me
[00:44] <S3lo> slut: a girl who goes with everyone... bitch: a girl who goes with everyone...except you ;)
[00:44] <crabgrass> i downloaded it from nvidia's website
[00:44] <_Zeus_> !language
[00:44] <viktor> hold on didnt you say i just have to type ./filename.py?
[00:44] <jrib> S3lo: please stay on-topic
[00:44] <jimdandy> _Zeus_, you think the source is buggy?
[00:44] <S3lo> k, sorry
[00:44] <_Zeus_> viktor: if you were in the directory that the file was, yes
[00:44] <un> jrib, purging brings the same
[00:44] <jimmmym> It just happened again, I had firefox open in the background and it just crashed
[00:44] <jrib> crabgrass: when you do what the bot just told you, it asks you to pick a driver from a list.
[00:44] <_Zeus_> what do you guys think of this? http://paste.ubuntu.com/48439/
[00:45] <_Zeus_> it doesn't look like an error with jimdandy'
[00:45] <_Zeus_> *s system
[00:45] <FluxD> Hi, I have a question regarding vsftpd and FXP support. Can someone help?
[00:45] <viktor> ahhh okay... sorry got it now i think... how do i get to the desktop? /home/user/Desktop/ ?
[00:45] <_Zeus_> !ask
[00:45] <_Zeus_> viktor: exactly
[00:45] <jrib> un: mess with /var/lib/dpkg/info/openoffice.org-writer2latex.prerm
[00:45] <Bad_Magic[GoD]> Anyone have any idea why I can't run snes9x in fullscreen mode on my ps3 unless I use a 'fullscreen' ps3-video-mode (and thus have the associated overscan issues)?
[00:45] <viktor> thanks ill try!
[00:45] <techqbert> With FreeBSD, i use nfs_mount -i flag (intr) which should make unmounting easier if the nfs server goes down.  What's the linux equivalent?
[00:45] <ShiroUsagi> Hi. I was wondering, where does the python-nautilus tagging extension keep file tags? And are there any other stable and working solutions for file tagging in linux?
[00:45] <crabgrass> jrib: working on it.
[00:46] <un> _Zeus_, i think your sk_buff has no member named 'mac' lol... sry... i had to...
[00:46] <Schuenemann> if I type "chmod +xrw file", to who am I exacly giving those permissions?
[00:46] <EvilDaemon> yourself.
[00:46] <un> jrib, yea i played with that for a while then deleted it...
[00:47] <xomp> how crucial is it to do updates in hardy?
[00:47] <jrib> un: erm, there's no file at all now?  Do you have the original somewhere?
[00:47] <Schuenemann> EvilDaemon, giving permissions to myself? That doesn't sound reasonable
[00:47] <danbh_intrepid> xomp: why not do them?
[00:47] <jrib> xomp: security updates are important
[00:47] <xomp> because I had hardy installed once and done some updates and got nothing but kernel panics afterwards :S
[00:47] <IntuitiveNipple> Schuenemann: paragraph 3 of "man chmod"
[00:47] <crabgrass> jrib: i just finished that command, and it didn't mention a single thing about a driver, it just wanted to know a lot of detailed questions about my keyboard.
[00:47] <Schuenemann> I'll check
[00:48] <danbh_intrepid> xomp: did it let you boot into the old kernel?
[00:48] <EvilDaemon> Schuenemann: use IntuitiveNipple's one
[00:48] <xomp> danbh_intrepid, yeah, if I hit escape and choose any of the choices it would boot fine.
[00:48] <IntuitiveNipple> SchneeSchwarz: "If none  of these are given, the effect is as if a were given, but bits that are set in the umask are not affected."
[00:48] <viktor> _Zeus_: now it says permission denied
[00:48] <viktor> :/
[00:49] <FluxD> Hi, I have a question regarding vsftpd and FXP support. Can someone take a look at my conf file and see why its not working.
[00:49] <danbh_intrepid> xomp: well, I think updates are generally good.  Just don't enable -proposed
[00:49] <un> jrib, not anymore, i can pull one out of another deb, but that still doesn't fix unopkg not returning a value... maybe if i could use build-dep, i could handmake a deb that forces unopkg to return 0 instead... it still wouldn't work, but it's better than having a broken dpkg...
[00:49] <Schuenemann> EvilDaemon, so, I'm giving permission to everyone?
[00:49] <xomp> danbh_intrepid, ok, i'll install hardy again tonight and give it a try :)
[00:49] <un> jrib, that being said i can't use build-dep...
[00:50] <qah> What command line function can I use to find the GL and GLUT opengl libraries? I am trying to include opengl headers into my C++ source code.
[00:50] <un> and im not about to hunt all the source dependencies for openoffice.org, so im just gonna reinstall... maybe i'll go with Mint for a while... hacked up as it is...
[00:51] <IntuitiveNipple> un: could you extract the bad deb, the internal control archive, edit the script and re-archive it?
[00:51] <Bad_Magic[GoD]> Anyone have any idea why I can't run snes9x in fullscreen mode on my ps3 unless I use a 'fullscreen' ps3-video-mode (and thus have the associated overscan issues)? I get the following error: XF86DGANoDirectVideoMode
[00:51] <jrib> un: all you need to do is edit the file
[00:51] <qah> What command line function can I use to find the GL and GLUT opengl libraries? I am trying to include opengl headers into my C++ source code.
[00:52] <un> maybe, aren't debs binary? i didn't think you could just change the data inside them freely...
[00:52] <un> jrib, ill find and edit that file you mentioned earlier then... :)
[00:52] <IntuitiveNipple> un: They're gzipped with a gzip control and data inside
[00:52] <jimdandy> to update on my problem, if i do 'ls /usr/src/linux*' i find i have 2 directories "/usr/src/linux-version" and "/usr/src/linux-version-generic" (I run the generic kernel) and a file, "/usr/src/linux-version.tar.bz2". is this why my zd1211 driver won't build? should I have the actual src in a folder in /usr/src as well?
[00:52] <danbh_intrepid> qah: apt-cache search glut
[00:52] <csilk> .deb is a binary format
[00:52] <IntuitiveNipple> if the problem is with dpkg, if it's the .postinst script, you can extract it, edit it, and rebuild the archives
[00:53] <jrib> un: right dpkg is just going to use whatever file is in /var/lib/dpkg/info/
[00:53] <qah> danbh_intrepid: Okay
[00:53] <Schuenemann> IntuitiveNipple, I don't understand this exaclly. If I want to give read permission to user otto only, is that possible?
[00:54] <qah> danbh_intrepid: I need something to be able to pass the comipler flags. That command just tells about the libs
[00:54] <jimdandy> _Zeus_, I commented about 20 or so lines ago, did you get that?
[00:54] <danbh_intrepid> qah: sorry, I thought that was your question
[00:55] <qah> #c++
[00:55] <Nallep> How can I setup my laptop so that when I press the eject button on my cdrom, it will automatically unmount the drive then eject?  I'm tired of minimizing my windows to get to the icon, and click eject on it, I just want to puch the button on my cdrom
[00:55] <un> the prerm from debians binary calls unopkg in a bunch of odd if statements pointing to >/dev/null... can i just add a || true, or | 1, or something?
[00:56] <Schuenemann> Nallep, the default should work like ht
[00:56] <jimdandy> How do I make sure I have the necessary sources installed to build and install a wireless driver from source?
[00:56] <Schuenemann> like that*
[00:56] <IntuitiveNipple> Schuenemann: Yes, if otto owns the file (chown otto: file && chmod u+r file)
[00:56] <tamer> can anyone give me the channel of KDE 3.5.9
[00:56] <danbh_intrepid> !build > jimdandy
[00:56] <jrib> un: you can just put 'exit 0' on the second line.  But I have no idea what any of the actual body is doing there, so you may want to look into it
[00:57] <techqbert> nox-: close.  i sifted through the man page of mount for NFS on gentoo and no luck with intr.  i'll check on #gentoo.  thanks
[00:57] <Schuenemann> IntuitiveNipple, the only way is making him the owner?
[00:57] <Nallep> Schuenemann: it doen't work like that for me, I have to click eject on the icon, I can't just press the eject button on my cdrom
[00:57] <KenBW> why doesn't a Wubi install support Hibernate?
[00:57] <un> jrib, schweet... thanks for helping man... i didn't think i was gonna get any help on this issue
[00:57] <tamer> how i make wicd autorestart with KDE
[00:57] <sullyva86> my laptop is putting itself to suspend even though I have it set just to turn the display off never sleep? Any ideas?
[00:57] <un> tamer, make a .desktop for wiicd and put it in the .kde/Autostart folder (oldskool)
[00:58] <jrib> un: I think a common thing to do is also use 'set -x' (instead of just exit 0) and that will give you more output as to what is failing
[00:59] <un> jrib, the unopkg authors all say it needs a rewrite, so i don't care what it spits out, so long as i can apt-get db4.6-utils by tonight...
[00:59] <IntuitiveNipple> Schuenemann: You could do it by group. make otto a member of 'somegroup', make 'somegroup' owner of the file (chown :somegroup file) and set permissions for the group (chmod g+r file)
[01:00] <techqbert> With FreeBSD, i use nfs_mount -i flag (intr) which should make unmounting easier if the nfs server goes down.  What's the linux equivalent?
[01:00] <oriol> hi
[01:00] <Schuenemann> IntuitiveNipple, then file permissions are to be group-based?
[01:00] <oriol> this is my first time using xchat
[01:00] <oriol> i am from spain
[01:01] <oriol> id like to know how to add irc servers on xchat
[01:01] <IntuitiveNipple> un: can you do mkdir work; dpkg-deb --extract unopkg.deb work
[01:02] <c4nx> #join pardus
[01:02] <keithclark> unop: no, really big, default faunts/screen
[01:02] <IntuitiveNipple> Schuenemann: You can do both. The file might be owned by someuser:somegroup - you can set permissions for someuser and somegroup independently
[01:02] <psykidellic> Hi, I am trying to use a Zen burn color theme availabel at http://mavis.anu.edu.au/ubuntu/zenburn-gnome-terminal/%25gconf.xml . I created the profile in the folder and updated the %gconf.xml but it is always using standard White on Black. Am I missing something?
[01:03] <unop> keithclark, i wonder how to take that - does that mean you have no big ugly fonts?  or  it didn't work and you have big ugly fonts?
[01:03] <Bad_Magic[GoD]> Anyone have any idea why I can't run snes9x in fullscreen mode on my ps3 unless I use a 'fullscreen' ps3-video-mode (and thus have the associated overscan issues)? I get the following error: XF86DGANoDirectVideoMode
[01:04] <chris_____> my ubuntu partition is not bootable... can i fix this?
[01:04] <Schuenemann> IntuitiveNipple, this seems weird at a glance. If the file is owned by user 'xxx' it can't be read by user 'yyy' (only him, not any group) without making him the owner
[01:04] <jimdandy> thanks for the referral to the page on compiling, but it didn't help. the driver comes with no INSTALL, README, or configure.ac files or docs. There is no configure script I can see; just the Makefile. I'm going to try untarring the src tarball and symlinking it to /usr/src/linux/.
[01:05] <KenBW> chris_____: is it in Grub?
[01:05] <chris_____> kenBW: there is no grub. i think the partition has no bootsector
[01:05] <IntuitiveNipple> Schuenemann: Is that the problem you're experiencing?
[01:06] <KenBW> chris_____: ah. out of my depth then
[01:06] <jkuboschek> hey guys, i just got a new dvd drive and it's not recognized in kubuntu. can someone help me?
[01:06] <chris_____> KenBW: i did some changes, my mbr was broken... now i have a new ubuntu install but would like to boot it
[01:06] <davmonster>  has anyone tried using ubuntu as a VM under Hyper-V?
[01:06] <davmonster> ubuntu-server I'm specifically referring to
[01:06] <Schuenemann> IntuitiveNipple, it's not a problem exacly. I was just wondering what was happening when I was using chmod without "ugoa" and then these questions popped up after I read the man page
[01:07] <IntuitiveNipple> Schuenemann: Ahhh... phew! I was starting to get brain-ache :)
[01:07] <Schuenemann> hehehe. Thanks :p

[01:11] <matreya6> Does anyone know how to detect the model of an analog gamepad? No markings on the thing itself, not even inside and analog, so no chips...

[01:12] <jimdandy> The website from which I obtained the driver source states "Make sure your kernel is compiled with wireless extensions (CONFIG_NET_WIRELESS) and USB support". Obviously the ubuntu "generic" kernel has usb support, is CONFIG_NET_WIRELESS compiled in?
[01:13] <IntuitiveNipple> jimdandy: Which driver are you building?
[01:14] <jimdandy> I am trying to build the vendor-supplied driver for the zd1211b/g usb dongle. I need the vendor driver to enable master mode.
[01:14] <un> tamer, your welcome

[01:17] <IntuitiveNipple> jimdandy: Does the Ubuntu version in 'universe' not work?
[01:17] <billymcc99> i have a dual opteron 64bit machine and getting a kernal panic on installation
[01:17] <tamer> un, You are right
[01:18] <^Phantom^> Hello again :D
[01:18] <dli__> billymcc99, it sounds to me like a hardware issue, get memtest86+ , try it first
[01:18] <billymcc99> ive run memory tests etc,
[01:18] <billymcc99> it runs the 32 bit verson of ubuntu fine
[01:18]  * ^Phantom^ is 99.999999999999% happy with ubuntu so far :D
[01:18] <un> billymcc99, just ask the question usually... to take up the least amount of line... if it get's a kernel panic then you probably need a different kernel for that hardware...
[01:18] <IntuitiveNipple> billymcc99: Can you capture the panic stack-trace on camera?
[01:19] <un> ^Phantom^, learn how to fix that .000...0001 percent...
[01:19] <billymcc99> it is relativly short
[01:19] <billymcc99> i will post in a second
[01:19] <^Phantom^> lol :P
[01:19] <Bad_Magic> Anyone have any idea why I can't run snes9x in fullscreen mode on my ps3 unless I use a 'fullscreen' ps3-video-mode (and thus have the associated overscan issues)? I get the following error: XF86DGANoDirectVideoMode

[01:21] <Bad_Magic> ive got everything else working, wireless controller, WPA, etc
[01:21] <billymcc99> is what i get on install
[01:21] <Bad_Magic> this is just some weird configuration issue is my guess
[01:21] <un> billymcc99, yea try a different kernel (distro, or ubuntu spin)
[01:21] <Bad_Magic> 4 years of computer science 4tl
[01:21] <Bad_Magic> =\
[01:22] <Bad_Magic> + 2 years of on the job software engineering
[01:22] <Bad_Magic> lol
[01:22] <Paradoxx> dli__, Does rsnapshot do individual files/folders or whole file systems?
[01:22] <billymcc99> could it be an that im not getting the SMP kernal from the iso?
[01:22] <m11> hello
[01:23] <IntuitiveNipple> billymcc99: That's not much help without more context... photos are often the only way to capture the stack-trace
[01:23] <dli__> Paradoxx, it does file/folders, just like rsync
[01:23] <skylar> what happened to ntp-simple?
[01:23] <billymcc99> there are only 3 lines
[01:23] <skylar> !ntp-simple
[01:23] <billymcc99> that ist the last one
[01:23] <dli__> Paradoxx, it uses hard links to keep it incremental
[01:23] <Bad_Magic> un:  Any other ideas?
[01:23] <skylar> !ntp
[01:23] <Paradoxx> dli__, nice, thanks...I'll take a look
[01:24] <OsamaK> Hello! What's the program to run 'deb' commend? It is not installed by default on my Ubuntu
[01:24] <IntuitiveNipple> billymcc99: Is it happening when booting from the amd64 LiveCD or Alternate CD, or when starting ubiquity to do the actual install?
[01:25] <jrib> OsamaK: what exactly are you trying to do?
[01:25] <^Phantom^> any video editors for ubuntu that i can use to remove commercials from tv show recordings and also crop and dissect parts of game recordings?
[01:25] <skylar> will ntp hurt bandwidth at all for a database server or will it be good to have?
[01:25] <IntuitiveNipple> OsamaK: sudo dpkg -i file.deb ?
[01:25] <_Zeus_> it'll be fine
[01:25] <_Zeus_> OsamaK: double-click on it?
[01:25] <OsamaK> jrib: 'deb http://nightlies.videolan.org/build/intrepid-i386/arch ./' see <http://nightlies.videolan.org/#debian>

[01:26] <EvilDaemon> OsamaK: Hardy. :-)
[01:27] <m11> _Zeus , 800x600
[01:27] <_Zeus_> amd64: because that's the name of a processor type
[01:27] <_Zeus_> amd64: you will probably have that happen a lot
[01:27] <jrib> OsamaK: well 1) you should have read the line that precedes that one and 2) you can't use it because that is for a different version of ubuntu
[01:27] <amd64> _Zeus_, not if I change my nick
[01:27] <_Zeus_> amd64: obviously...
[01:27] <amd64> owned gg no re

[01:28] <Jacobbs> Hi, xchat package does'nt have a binary I can run, am I an idiot?
[01:28] <Jacobbs> Also, hello from Hardy :)
[01:28] <_Zeus_> m11: try editing the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:28] <jrib> Jacobbs: it's just "xchat" :/
[01:29] <billymcc99> how do i post this picture you wanted to see of the kernal panic?
[01:29] <Jacobbs> Yea, I did that
[01:29] <jrib> Jacobbs: try /usr/bin/xchat
[01:29] <Jacobbs> I did
[01:29] <m11> _Zeus_: in xorg.conf there is no lines mentioned to resolution
[01:29] <Jacobbs> Only has "plugins" folder
[01:29] <IntuitiveNipple> billymcc99: How about starting a thread in ubuntu forums, hardware & laptops section ?
[01:29] <skylar> IntuitiveNipple, thanks I guess unless you were talking to me afterwards ...
[01:29] <Jacobbs> I'm using pidgin atm, and it's not that great O.o
[01:29] <jrib> Jacobbs: apt-cache policy xchat   on pastebin
[01:29] <IntuitiveNipple> billymcc99: you can attach the photo to a post there
[01:29] <Jacobbs> okay
[01:29] <billymcc99> ok
[01:29] <billymcc99> will do
[01:30] <`Bleu> Does anyone know of a good open source project that does iSCSI replication, or something that will replicate block level storage LUN's?
[01:30] <kernando> is it possibly to filter the genre in rhythmbox?
[01:30] <Jacobbs> //topic
[01:30] <Jacobbs> Hmm
[01:30] <Jacobbs> http://paste.ubuntu.com
[01:30] <MrD1> Ok i have a question that nobody knows the answer to, maybe today i will have luck, i have got a new wifi usb card, with two fresh installs of ubuntu on two diffrent laptops, with the same driver and same wifi. on one lap top it shows signal strength but on the other i can connect but does not show the signal strength
[01:30] <Quartermaster1> I'm trying to install ubuntu, I get past the language screen, then i hit install, and then it takes about a minute and says "Error reading boot cd" what's that all about
[01:30] <amd64> why does gdesklets freeze
[01:30] <_Zeus_> m11: sorry, then i'm not sure what to do
[01:31] <jrib> Jacobbs: erm, need the actual url
[01:31] <Jacobbs> I know
[01:31] <m11> _Zeus_: tnx
[01:31] <Jacobbs> I typed the link so I didn't have to do it in Firefox cause I'm silly.
[01:31] <Jacobbs> lol
[01:31] <phasegen> can anyone point me to a tutorial for troubleshooting xorg's xserver? I own a dell inspiron 1100 laptop, and I'm having an intermittent problem in hardy.  sometimes my computer boots into x, sometimes it doesn't and just locks up with a blank screen.  I'm trying to understand the process better.
[01:31] <jrib> Jacobbs: purge and install again, i'll be back in 5
[01:31] <Jacobbs> I just PM'd you it.
[01:31] <Jacobbs> k
[01:31] <Jacobbs> how2purge?
[01:31] <Jacobbs> O.o
[01:31] <FloodBot2> Jacobbs: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[01:31] <jrib> Jacobbs: apt-get purge
[01:31] <Jacobbs> ty
[01:31] <_Zeus_> !ask | amd64
[01:31] <Quartermaster1> anyone?
[01:31] <^Phantom^> i want to edit out the commercials from my tv recordings,  what is out there for ubuntu?
[01:32] <amd64> _Zeus_, please don't call ubottu and accuse me falsely
[01:32] <_Zeus_> Quartermaster1: run a cd check
[01:32] <favro> Quartermaster1: did you do the md5 check on the cd?
[01:32] <_Zeus_> amd64: you said "why does gdesklets freeze"
[01:32] <amd64> yes and your answer is ?
[01:32] <_Zeus_> that's the closest thing i could find to how unhelpful your request was
[01:32] <Quartermaster1> cd check errors out 2
[01:32] <_Zeus_> amd64: how in the world am i supposed to know?!?
[01:33] <h6w> Hi, how do I tell NetworkManager to ignore the state of my internet when making a request to localhost?
[01:33] <Quartermaster1> must be the drive
[01:33] <amd64> _Zeus_, if you don't know then please don't reply
[01:33] <favro> Quartermaster1: you'll need to md5 the iso before burning again
[01:33] <Xecration> Does anyone know where PHP5 stores settings other than /etc/php5/php.ini?
[01:33] <Quartermaster1> how I don't understand
[01:33] <amd64> _Zeus_, perhaps I didn't ask the question clearly and if that's the case, please let me know but don't sick the bot on me
[01:33] <^Phantom^>  someone told me a couple, but I forgot to write them down <_<
[01:33] <_Zeus_> amd64: you should give more info.  no one can tell from that
[01:34] <zipper> _Zeus_, in any case, he only asked once, he didnt flood. But yeah, i guess he should be more specific, but the response from ubottu doesnt really say anything about that
[01:34] <m11> can ubuntu have higher resolution then 800x600 ?
[01:34] <h6w> Xecration: /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini
[01:34] <EvilDaemon> Yes.
[01:34] <h6w> m11: Yes, I run it on 1440x900 all the time.
[01:34] <favro> !fixres | m11
[01:34] <Xecration> ahh ok thanks
[01:34] <_Zeus_> amd64: can you tell us anything else about when it freezes?
[01:35] <`Bleu> Is there any good iSCSI replication software for linux?
[01:35] <m11> tnx all, i check
[01:35] <MrD1> m11, yes it can
[01:35] <amd64> _Zeus_, here's the command prompt output:
[01:35] <amd64> amd64@amd64-desktop:~/Desktop/awn-extras-applets-0.2.6$ gdesklets

[01:35] <EvilDaemon> !pastebin | amd64
[01:35] <^Phantom^> what is +z ?
[01:36] <_Zeus_> dunno
[01:36] <_Zeus_> +b is ban
[01:36] <amd64> I don't have time for this - I'm going to bed
[01:36] <amd64> *work I mean
[01:36] <amd64> 9p - 3a at the gas station
[01:36] <OsamaK> jrib: BTW, is there major different between packages for 8.10 and 8.04?
[01:37] <OsamaK> jrib: And for sorry, I didn't get your first point
[01:37] <jrib> OsamaK: sometimes
[01:37] <zipper> amd64, we simply ask you to show a little respect when you're asking for help. None of us inhere are getting paid. Please follow the guidelines
[01:37] <IntuitiveNipple> Opmoderate mode (channel mode z). With +z set, quieted/banned/moderated users' comments still appear to channel operators
[01:37] <jrib> OsamaK: what is the sentence before the one you pasted?
[01:37] <amd64> zipper, no one is forcing you to reply and I didn't disrespect anyone
[01:37] <Xecration> Hmm no luck with that, no php.ini in the apache2 or any of its subfolders
[01:37] <^Phantom^> oh, okay, thank you IntuitiveNipple  :D
[01:37] <phasegen> no help here I guess...
[01:38] <zipper> sigh, suit yourself
[01:38] <amd64> zipper, remember how difficult it is to convey my thoughts via text on the screen
[01:38] <OsamaK> jrib: What's the program to run 'deb' commend? It is not installed by default on my Ubuntu
[01:38] <amd64> zipper, I didn't mean anything disrespectful and if you interpreted it that way I'm sorry you did
[01:38] <OsamaK> bash: deb: command not found
[01:38] <xomp> Ok, I now have Hardy installed, how do I go about not allowing "proposed"? updates from being downloaded/installed?
[01:38] <jrib> OsamaK: go to the website, copy the sentence right before the one you pasted here that began "deb ..." and paste it here.]
[01:39] <zipper> amd64, you were asked to use a pastebin, and your reply is that "you dont have time for this"?! okay then
[01:39] <h6w> Xecration: Well it'll look in a few other places, too, like /etc/php.ini before giving up and resorting to defaults.  Best place to find out where it's looking is by doing a php file with just <?php phpinfo(); ?> in it.
[01:39] <OsamaK> jrib: you mean "http://nightlies.videolan.org/build/intrepid-i386/arch ./" only?
 now that I have Hardy installed the fellow who was helping me is no longer connected here and my question fades into obscurity!! :(
[01:40] <Ximal> hmm
[01:40] <csilk> xomp,  what question
[01:40] <_Zeus_> !ask | xomp
[01:40] <amd64> zipper, the fact that I have to go to work has nothing to do with pastebiun
[01:40] <xomp> Ok, I now have Hardy installed, how do I go about not allowing "proposed"? updates from being downloaded/installed?
[01:41] <xomp> _Zeus_, csilk ^^
[01:41] <IntuitiveNipple> xomp: System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager
[01:41] <amd64> zipper, again, consider the fact this is all text and you can't see what i'm saying, feeling, or my body language
[01:41] <_Zeus_> xomp: Administration > Software Sources
[01:41] <_Zeus_> IntuitiveNipple: huh?
[01:41] <jrib> OsamaK: the line above it...
[01:41] <IntuitiveNipple> xomp: then Settings > Repositories > Updates
[01:42] <^Phantom^> amd64, aren't you going to be late for work?  :P
[01:42] <MrD1> Hello a little help please if some one has the time or answer. I have ubuntu and windows on the same system by grub. If i install the usb chipset in windows does it effect the usb ports in ubuntu
[01:42] <sfer3> Hi everyone, I've got an issue - I don't know whether it's with firefox or php or what - probably my apache setup. When I try to navigate using firefox on my server to php files ON the server, it want to open them up in an external application. How do I fix this?
[01:42] <IntuitiveNipple> xomp: make your choices, close out the dialogs, then press the "Reload" button
[01:42] <xomp> IntuitiveNipple, ok, I don't appear to have propesed enabled there, I guess there is something else that gets updated that causes my kernel panics then :(
[01:42] <_Zeus_> MrD1: nope
[01:43] <_Zeus_> xomp: did you try System > Admin > Software Sources?
[01:43] <MrD1> _Zeus_, Ok thank you must be some thing elses causing the problem
[01:43] <xomp> IntuitiveNipple, at some point during the updates I get a kernel panic upon restarting. Not sure which update is causing it but I'm only able to get back into gnome after hitting escape upon reboot and choosing a different kernel.
[01:43] <_Zeus_> xomp: then click on updates
[01:43] <_Zeus_> xomp: that's proabaly the new kernel.....
[01:43] <xomp> _Zeus_, yeah, proposed is not selected in there.
[01:43] <_Zeus_> -3?
[01:43] <pan_> how would i start fluxbox with xinit on a certain display?
[01:43] <amd64> ^Phantom^, leaving now, ttyl
[01:44] <xomp> is there a way to not get the latest kernel? lol
[01:44] <IntuitiveNipple> xomp: ok... are you applying the updates from the Update Manager GUI ?
[01:44] <xomp> IntuitiveNipple, yes
[01:44] <jrib> OsamaK: "I'll help: For Ubuntu Intrepid I386 (unstable) add the following line to your sources.list".  So it tells you that it is not a command, but instead a line you add to a file.  And it also tells you that it is NOT for your version of ubuntu
[01:44] <_Zeus_> xomp: just boot to -2?
[01:44] <^Phantom^> wow this place is kinda quiet tonight
[01:44] <csilk> sfer3,  sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-php5
[01:44] <xomp> _Zeus_, sorry, but I don't know what that means :(
[01:44] <csilk> then sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[01:45] <csilk> assuming you are using php5 or abaove
[01:45] <csilk> *above
[01:45] <_Zeus_> xomp: just keep booting to the old kernel
[01:45] <h6w> ^Phantom^: Got time for my question? :-p
[01:45] <EvilDaemon> ^Phantom^: Friday night, everyone's out on dates! :P
[01:45] <EvilDaemon> ...except us.
[01:45] <xomp> _Zeus_, ok, is there a way to troubleshoot what the issue is with the new kernel?
[01:46] <speener> anyone know a room where i can get help for windows vista?
[01:46] <h6w> For some of us it's Sat morning!
[01:46] <speener> i messed it up and it wont boot
[01:46] <^Phantom^> h6w, i'm an ubuntu n00b
[01:46] <speener> lol
[01:46] <jrib> speener: ##windows
[01:46] <xomp> _Zeus_, because I would really like to use a new kernel if it's supposed to be better, just don't know why it panics :3
[01:46] <IntuitiveNipple> xomp: There's a bunch of logs kept in "/root/.synaptic/log" - you'll need to be 'root' to check them out though. Alt+F2 then "gksudo gedit" and navigate to that directory and pick the most recent log-file
[01:46] <speener> join #windows
[01:46] <speener> oops
[01:46] <csilk> sfer3,  working?
[01:46] <_Zeus_> xomp: it's probably not that much better..... troubleshooting the kernel is advanced stuff.  you running intrepid?
[01:46] <xomp> IntuitiveNipple, ok, I'm running all the updates right now, should I check the logs after updating?
[01:47] <Jacobbs> So, I autoremoved xchat and aptget installed again
[01:47] <Jacobbs> Same thing, only "plugins" gets installed.
[01:47] <IntuitiveNipple> xomp: Does the panic occur during the installation? Or when the system restarts?
[01:47] <xomp> _Zeus_, no, I'm running Hardy, was running Gutsy.
[01:47] <sfer3> csilk: I'll just check...
[01:47] <xomp> IntuitiveNipple, after the system restarts
[01:47] <_Zeus_> xomp: i see
[01:47] <_Zeus_> what is -e?
[01:47] <IntuitiveNipple> xomp: ok... which kernel version is it that is panic-ing?
[01:48]  * ^Phantom^ gets on Scroogle and looks for linux video editors :D
[01:48] <jrib> _Zeus_: http://freenode.net/using_the_network.shtml
[01:48] <_Zeus_> ty
[01:48] <xomp> IntuitiveNipple, I'm not sure, I'll have to check again once I'm finished updating :) I had the panics in the past and went to Gutsy out of frustration so I'm trying Hardy once more to see if I can fix it's issues with my laptop.
[01:48] <m12> how can i find out what resolutions my monitor supports so i can add it in xorg.conf?
[01:49] <_Zeus_> m12: what were you using before?
[01:49] <billymcc99> is there anyone on that is an admin on the ubuntu forms?
[01:49] <jrib> Jacobbs: is xchat working now?
[01:49] <m12> _Zeus_: what do you mean by before ?
[01:49] <sfer3> csilk: Do I need to restart apache or something? Because I'm still having the problem..
[01:49] <jrib> billymcc99: try #ubuntuforums
[01:49] <Jacobbs> Nope
[01:49] <_Zeus_> xomp: post the output of apt-cache policy linux-image-generic
[01:49] <Jacobbs> I'm on my Windows partition heh
[01:49] <_Zeus_> m12: before it broke?
[01:49] <jrib> Jacobbs: k
[01:49] <Jacobbs> Wanted to play some Guild wars
[01:49] <_Zeus_> :P
[01:49] <Jacobbs> I'll figure it out another time :P
[01:49] <IntuitiveNipple> xomp: You can look in /boot ( ls -lstr /boot/vmlinuz*)
[01:49] <csilk> sfer3,  yes   sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
[01:50] <m12> _Zeus_: fresh ubuntu 8.04 install
[01:50] <MinusSeven> hi

[01:51] <eitreach> Is it possible to merge unpartitioned space without wiping the partition with which it is merged?
[01:51] <m12> _Zeus_: installed as sugested : xresprobe , then run : sudo ddcprobe | grep monitorrange ;;; result = nothing
[01:51] <_Zeus_> m12: try running sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[01:52] <xomp> I feel like such a noob for the paste to go awry lol, not too mention someone called ubottu for pastebin like I'm some nub lmao
[01:52] <m12> _Zeus_: will do in minute
[01:52] <IntuitiveNipple> xomp: next time it happen, once you restart, check in the logs directory (/var/log/) for a dmesg* or kern.* log-file that has time-stamps that match the failed start, and check the contents of those files for any mention of the panic. If you find something, then post a bug report to launchpad against the kernel package (linux)
[01:52] <MinusSeven> is anyone else here going to Software Freedom Day 08 conference?
[01:52] <csilk> sfer3,  no worries

[01:53] <^P|dozing> i don't use away messages or scripts :D
[01:54] <_Zeus_> you set your nick
[01:54] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> lol vmware is great for utilizing internet, but it's not helping me get the necessary packages installed
[01:54] <kernando> how do i get dvd playback? i put in a dvd and it wont play
[01:54] <jrib> !dvd > kernando
[01:54] <lasaryus> I am using xfplayer to try and play rmvb files, but it gives me the error cannot find drvc.so library, how do i fix this ?
[01:54] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> i'll talk to you guys soon enough, afk for a short bit
[01:54] <_Zeus_> Yekyaa[Ubuntu]: what do you mean?  why would vmware install packages?
[01:54] <sullyva86> anybody have a recommendation for an alternate to firefox?

[01:55] <^P|snoozing> ^that one is better than dozing (i was thinking dozing could be interpreted as overdosing or something
[01:55] <sullyva86> csilk:chrome runs in wine still right?
[01:55] <_Zeus_> that has nothing to do with it!
[01:55] <jrib> ^P|snoozing: don't change your nick, just use /away snoozing
[01:56] <Fish-Face> I'm having a problem with the screen auto-dimming in Gutsy. First of all, it's happening on AC power when it's supposed to be off.
[01:56] <Fish-Face> Second, when I waggle the mouse after it dims, it's being reset one notch lower than it started off at
[01:56] <csilk> sullyva86,  i assumed there was a linux version, havent checked
[01:56] <Fish-Face> i.e. the screen dims two notches and waggling the mouse gets back one notch
[01:56] <^P|snoozing> actually, I'll part and come back when I'm done snoozing, as I'll just be a non-chatting nick while i'm asleep lol
[01:56] <jepp> does anyone know where to find linux mint menu?
[01:56] <^P|snoozing> bbl :D
[01:56] <eitreach> kernando: You can use the medibuntu-repository. Let me just get you a link.
[01:56] <csilk> maybe not, look slike you have to run wine
[01:57] <lasaryus> I am using xfplayer to try and play rmvb files, but it gives me the error cannot find drvc.so library, how do i fix this ?
[01:57] <eitreach> kernando: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Medibuntu - let me know if you need any assistance setting it up.
[01:58] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> sully: i'll be back soon, gotta afk, just wanted to get online first
[01:58] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> i'll be asking questions soon enough :)
[01:58] <unop> If someone here has the time, can you help keithclark with getting a ATI graphics card installed, i'd appreciate it.
[01:58] <_Zeus_> can't he ask for himself?
[01:58] <unop> keithclark, all i can do at this point is refer you to these two links - www2.ati.com/drivers/linux/linux_8.18.8.html  and http://ati.amd.com/products/catalyst/linux.html
[01:58] <rambo3> !ati
[01:59] <skylar> is there good official ubuntu documentation for apache configuration with hardy?
[01:59] <m12> _Zeus_: that comand , -phigh didnt do nothing
[02:00] <_Zeus_> m12: it did
[02:00] <_Zeus_> it didn't look like it did
[02:00] <Jacobbs> I'm a newb, how do I compile stuff?
[02:00] <xomp> woah double negative "ain't nobody got nothing on me"
[02:00] <m12> _Zeus_: it said it overwrite and made backup
[02:00] <_Zeus_> m12: did that change anything?
[02:00] <eitreach> Jacobbs: you first install the build-essential package.
[02:01] <Jacobbs> sec
[02:01] <Jacobbs> http://code.google.com/p/pygraphics/
[02:01] <Flannel> Jacobbs: What are you trying to install?
[02:01] <unop> rambo3, :) we'd been through that
[02:01] <Jacobbs> I'm trying to get this onto my Ubuntu
[02:01] <m12> _Zeus_:  yes, i got one more xorg.conf file
[02:01] <eitreach> Jacobbs: give me just a minute.
[02:01] <_Zeus_> m12: i mean, did it change the res
[02:01] <Jacobbs> I already have Python PIL (package python-imaging)
[02:01] <m12> _Zeus_:  yes, i got one more xorg.conf file
[02:02] <_Zeus_> m12: i said, does it work now? (eg, more than 800x600)
[02:02] <rambo3> I quit buying using ati 4 years ago.
[02:02] <m12> _Zeus_: i got one more copy of xorg.conf , comand didnt do anything as i said 10 lines above
[02:02] <xomp> ati and linux goes good together
[02:02] <unop> rambo3, that's besides the point
[02:02] <_Zeus_> m12: you need to log out and log back in
[02:02] <unop> rambo3, but i guess it doesn't matter anymore - since he's left
[02:02] <xomp> in a parallel universe and all :)
[02:03] <m12> _Zeus_: will try
 ati and linux goes good together, bwahahaha
[02:03] <xomp> rambo3, xomp> in a parallel universe and all :) lol
[02:03] <Jacobbs> eitreach, I downloaded the pygraphics-1.5.tar.gz and it game with some files.
[02:03] <Jacobbs> And I basically stared at them and said "I don't know what to dO"
[02:04] <xomp> rambo3, I'm hexed with a radeon mobility lol, believe me, I hate ati with a purple passion for the problems I've had in the past ;P
[02:04] <phantomcircuit> All the smaller text is screwy when i use wine how cna i fix this?
[02:04] <Jacobbs> xomp, see nvidia's 8 series
[02:04] <m12> _Zeus_: as i said, comand didnt do nothing but made one more xorg.conf file, no changes after restart X
[02:04] <Jacobbs> Their mobile chips are faulty as hell too
[02:04] <jrib> Jacobbs: first step is usually to look for a README or INSTALL file in the package
[02:04] <eitreach> Jacobbs: It's usually not too hard to do. Let me just have a look at the files.
[02:04] <m12> so, is it really this hard to set resolution to 1024x768 ?
[02:04] <xomp> Jacobbs, yeah, Nvidia/AMD have gone to hell these past few years.
[02:05] <Jacobbs> I'd have to look again
[02:05] <Jacobbs> Yea, I did what it said
[02:05] <stickboy> i'm trying to install 32bit ff on my ubuntu 8.04 64bit (intel) install. i found a thread on the forums that does it for amd, would that also work for me? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1174435
[02:05] <jrib> stickboy: why do you want to install 32bit firefox?
[02:06] <vbabiy> Any one have any idea how to fix this http://paste2.org/p/76151
[02:06] <bazz> is there an app that will connect to my phone via bluetooth and act like a headset (or like a car bluetooth hands free system)
[02:07] <stickboy> jrib : i can't get a java applet to work but my friend running 32bit ubuntu can.
[02:07] <IntuitiveNipple> stickboy: 'amd64' just means 64-bit x86 based, it covers Intel too :)
[02:07] <_Zeus_> vbabiy: that looks bad, i don't know
[02:07] <vbabiy> _Zeus_: yeah it sucks :(
[02:07] <_Zeus_> stickboy: just like x86 is an homage to the 486, etc
[02:07] <xomp> is there a way I can tell if my system is 64bit? lol, I've always wondered.
[02:07] <jrib> !flash64 > stickboy
[02:08] <jrib> stickboy: use those instructions.  Did you try using icedtea java plugin first though?
[02:08] <Jacobbs> eitreach, I figured it out, thanks!
[02:08] <Jacobbs> I typed the command in backwards hah
[02:09] <Kondor> hi all i install ubuntu wieth wobi on my eeepc 1000h but i dont get netwörk wörd  it dont find wlan and lan any ideas?
[02:09] <eitreach> Jacobbs: excellent.
[02:09] <vbabiy> Any one have any idea how to fix this http://paste2.org/p/76151
[02:09] <IntuitiveNipple> stickboy: Is this any good for your 64-bit java applet? http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=5708198&postcount=10
[02:11] <stickboy> this is odd, i don't see a firefox plugin for java. but i can load applets to a certain point and i haven't been prompted.
[02:12] <rambo3> hava plugin for firefox
[02:12] <rambo3> stickboy, 64 kernel?

[02:14] <rogue2501> MrD1: dude, just install cedega and you wont have to worry about if linux native games install, you can install pretty much any game using that
[02:14] <GamingX> How do I set up mailx? Is there anything I need to configure after installing the package?
[02:14] <Glady> why u stop moving?
[02:14] <jrib> !fixres > m12
[02:14] <bring2towels> rogue2501, is cedega open source?
[02:14] <MrD1> rogue2501, ok ment free ones
[02:15] <rogue2501> bring2towels: ummm technically no.  their are ways around it though.  lol.  it should be open source... hahaha
[02:15] <bring2towels> rogue2501, aw thats sad, yeah it should be ;)
[02:15] <rogue2501> MrD1: oooo, ok, sorry, then i dont know any, sorry.  tried a few. but they were not all that great
[02:15] <buddha_> .
[02:16] <MrD1> rogue2501, yer same problem dont seem to be up to much, but then again they are free so carnt complain
[02:17] <m12> jrib, no go :/ installed xresprobe and did sudo ddcprobe | grep monitorrange , nothing hapaned
[02:17] <rogue2501> bring2towels: yahh i know, but they want you to pay monthly or some crap to use the application.  pain in the butt.  so anyways, if you want to use it, their is a version on www.isohunt.com you can dl and use for free
[02:17] <rogue2501> bring2towels: i believe its version 5.2 or something
[02:17] <jrib> m12: just run 'sudo ddcprobe'
[02:18] <pist0l-fish> hi all, I am trying to burn a dvd-r using my laptop (which has ubuntu 8.04 on it) and it cannot get the size of the empty dvd for some reason
[02:18] <bring2towels> rogue2501, thats good to know, but if its not open source, usually i dont bother :D
[02:18] <pist0l-fish> can anyone help?
[02:18] <m12> jrib: tnx i cehck
[02:18] <hwilde_> pist0l-fish, its a cheap dvd use a different one
[02:18] <rogue2501> MrD1: yah thats true.  happy hunting :)
[02:18] <pist0l-fish> hwilde_: but I have 20 of these. Can you elaborate as to what the problem is?
[02:18] <bring2towels> pist0l-fish, maybe try a different program? brasero and k3b are good
[02:19] <pist0l-fish> bring2towels: no it can't get the size of the dvde
[02:19] <pist0l-fish> *dvd
[02:19] <pist0l-fish> (those programs use the same procedures)
[02:19] <rogue2501> bring2towels: yah, well the thing is based on open source, based on wine i believe it was, which is open source, they just put more focus on games only and then went and made it propritery.
[02:19] <hwilde> pist0l-fish do you have any non cheap blank dvds like a real dvd
[02:19] <m12> jrib: i see resolutions posible, but no refresh rates in that list
[02:19] <pist0l-fish> hwilde_: no I do not. When you say cheap, can you elaborate?
[02:19] <bring2towels> rogue2501, yeah it sounds good, up until that last part =(
[02:20] <cyban> Cario Dock avail for Ubuntu?
[02:20] <jrib> m12: so monitorrange is at the bottom?
[02:20] <GamingX> How do I close a document in the terminal window? I get END. After that just beeping sounds.
[02:20] <hwilde> pist0l-fish, you don't have one single dvd movie or something to verify it can read the size
[02:20] <pist0l-fish> is it that it uses a different standard?
[02:20] <hwilde> where did you buy it walmart
[02:20] <jrib> GamingX: q  (you are probably in "less")
[02:20] <_Zeus_> GamingX: q?
[02:20] <cyban> GamingX, Esc then :q
[02:20] <m12> jrib: monitor resolutions lise, bottom = edid:edidfail
[02:20] <buddha_> #ubuntu-qc
[02:20] <_Zeus_> cyban: i don't think he's in vim
[02:20] <pist0l-fish> hwilde: oh I see, a written dvd. Let me figure out how it's reading the size and i'll try it on an existing dvd
[02:20] <elexodus_napping> Ok guys, help me help my mom out: Firefox keeps showing an error when she tries to run it. Something like "firefox is already running". It seems that the only way to fix it is to reboot. What gives?
[02:20] <hwilde> ctrl+c
[02:21] <_Zeus_> elexodus_napping: is ff running?
[02:21] <_Zeus_> :P
[02:21] <rogue2501> bring2towels: yah, i know.  i was in the same boat.  but then i got fed up with wine and trying to get things to work, caved, and went to cedega.
[02:21] <GamingX> Thanks. I still haven't got the hang of it yet.
[02:21] <cyban> _Zeus_, ya maybe not, usualy where people get stuck tho heh
[02:21] <bring2towels> elexodus_napping, probably ff crashed, you can use the system monitor and end the process
[02:21] <cyban> so no Cario Dock for Ubuntu?
[02:21] <pist0l-fish> ﻿hwilde: these are staples brand dvds, I did not purchase them
[02:21] <GamingX> !mailx
[02:21] <bring2towels> rogue2501, i wonder what cedega does exactly, maybe someone can make an open source version?
[02:21] <GamingX> Where can I find a good tutorial on mailx?
[02:21] <_Zeus_> cyban: good point
[02:22] <hwilde> pist0l-fish, cheap crap did you let them sit in the sun
[02:22] <_Zeus_> cyban: avant is good *thumb*
[02:22] <hwilde> pist0l-fish, they probly melted or whatever
[02:22] <pist0l-fish> hwilde: christ man, no
[02:22] <n-neo> hello guys i have a doubt regarding 32-bit pixel plotting
[02:22] <n-neo> i saw that even 32-bit pixel 24-bit pixel structure is is used
[02:22] <pist0l-fish> they're brand new
[02:22] <n-neo> except the extra 8 bit is used as a palleted overlay
[02:22] <n-neo> for transparency
[02:22] <cyban> <--New to Ubu, got sick of F9
[02:22] <FloodBot2> n-neo: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[02:22] <n-neo> i cant figure out which is that tranperancy 8 bit
[02:22] <n-neo> can aby one help me
[02:22] <hwilde> pist0l-fish, put a real dvd in verify your drive can read the size.
[02:22] <mystery> Hi everyone
[02:22] <bring2towels> !enter | n-neo
[02:22] <pist0l-fish> hwilde: I put in an already burned Sony DVD and it is able to read the size
[02:22] <hwilde> pist0l-fish, same software program?
[02:23] <n-neo> ok i am sorry
[02:23] <n-neo> i am new to this
[02:23] <hwilde> !enter | n-neo
[02:23] <pist0l-fish> hwilde: nautilus, but it might use a different method for reading the size of a non-empty media
[02:23] <elexodus_napping> _Zeus_, bring2towels, The machine runs night and day, and generally, my ma clicks on firefox, checks the news, checks her email, and then closes Firefox. The problem is that lately when she returns to the comp to repeat the process, she gets the error???ess
[02:23] <mystery> Can someone help me get my new installation of VLC 0.9.2 to play audio
[02:23] <hwilde> pist0l-fish, how many dvds did you try
[02:23] <skylar> how to grep to find files that have the string, "It Works!" in them?
[02:23] <pist0l-fish> yeah i'm going to try another one of these
[02:23] <_Zeus_> elexodus_napping: huh.  that usually means ff didn't start correctly
[02:23] <_Zeus_> skylar: grep "It Works!" *
[02:23] <pist0l-fish> hwilde: do dvds usually "break" ?
[02:24] <cyban> _Zeus_, hrm search for avant?
[02:24] <_Zeus_> scratches?
[02:24] <pist0l-fish> no scratches on this one
[02:24] <bring2towels> elexodus_napping, i already told you, probably FF crashed, so the process needs to be terminated using System -> Administration -> System Monitor
[02:24] <hwilde> elexodus_napping, did you tell her just turn it off and then turn it back on ?
[02:24] <skylar> _Zeus_, recursively through all directories?
[02:24] <_Zeus_> !info avant-window-navigator | cyban
[02:24] <mystery> Can someone help me get my new installation of VLC 0.9.2 to play audio?
[02:24] <cyban> thx
[02:24] <pist0l-fish> hwilde: same problem with another blank dvd
[02:24] <hwilde> pist0l-fish, dvds and cds are intentionally disposable media.  how long have books been around?  you think cds can last that long?  lucky if you get 10 years
[02:24] <_Zeus_> skylar: use rgrep for recursize
[02:24] <_Zeus_> *recursive
[02:24] <elexodus_napping> hwilde: yes, but it gets annoying having to reboot all the time.
[02:25] <m12> UBUNTU 8.04 fresh install, resolution cant go over 800x600 ??? any help appriciated
[02:25] <cyban> I keep typin yum..... arf
[02:25] <pist0l-fish> hwilde: I meant to say are new dvds usually broken out of the factory sometimes?
[02:25] <hwilde> elexodus_napping, run the updates then to get the new firefox, and it won't have as many errors?
[02:25] <pist0l-fish> you misunderstood me
[02:25] <bring2towels> m12, what video card do you have?
[02:25] <elexodus_napping> _Zeus_, bring2towels: But how do I stop this from happening over and over?
[02:25] <pist0l-fish> but anyways, no, same problem on all these dvds
[02:25] <m12> bring2towels: sis256
[02:25] <hwilde> pist0l-fish, well have you tried multiple different software tools
[02:25] <elexodus_napping> hwilde: comp is up to date.
[02:25] <pist0l-fish> yes
[02:25] <skylar> _Zeus_, -bash: !": event not found
[02:25] <pist0l-fish> i bet you it will work on my windows box
[02:25] <bring2towels> elexodus_napping, see if she installed any addons lately, sometimes they can cause problems
[02:25] <hwilde> elexodus_napping, what does the error say
[02:25] <pist0l-fish> and I will be sad
[02:25] <jrib> skylar: use single quotes instead of double
[02:25] <_Zeus_> skylar: sorry, escape the ! (\!)
[02:25] <hwilde> pist0l-fish, so then try a different burning prog
[02:25] <pist0l-fish> i said i did
[02:26] <_Zeus_> i didn't think you would actually use that string
[02:26] <rogue2501> bring2towels: probably not, they are a company that provides migration services.  ie, games are developed for a particular platform, and they just make it work on any platform.  maybe someone could do it, but it will take alot of time
[02:26] <bring2towels> m12, hmm you can try enabling proprietary drivers in System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers
[02:26] <elexodus_napping> bring2towels: she barely knows how to get to the news and her inbox.
[02:26] <m12> bring2towels: noth8ing there
[02:26] <elexodus_napping> hwilde: something like "Firefox is already running, and can't be opened..."
[02:26] <_Zeus_> elexodus_napping: make a custom ff icon that will run the command "killall firefox" before starting ff
[02:27] <skylar> _Zeus_, so it can take a while to look through the whole computer even on a fresh install?
[02:27] <bring2towels> m12, so there are no other resolutions listed in Preferences -> Screen Resolution?
[02:27] <elexodus_napping> _Zeus_: cool. sounds good.
[02:27] <skylar> dev/log: No such device or address
[02:27] <_Zeus_> skylar: absolutely!  it could take hours
[02:27] <pist0l-fish> hwilde: In k3b it says "Please Insert an empty or appendable Double Layer DVD+R medium"
[02:27] <m12> bring2towels: no, and this is fresh installation 8.04 , on old install , 7.04 everything was working properly
[02:28] <_Zeus_> skylar: you can use the flag "-I" to skip binary files (that's an uppercase "i")
[02:28] <m12> bring2towels: since day 1 i installed 7.04 , no problems, this 1 day and 1 day problems :)
[02:28] <mystery> Hello everyone
[02:28] <huitang> hello
[02:28] <bring2towels> m12, hmm idk that card, have you tried searching by the model or manufacture on ubuntuforum.org ?
[02:28] <_Zeus_> skylar: you should definately use the -I flash if you're searching the entire FS
[02:28] <skylar> _Zeus_, at the end?
[02:28] <skylar> or right after rgrep..?
[02:28] <m12> bring2towels: it is integrated :/
[02:28] <mystery> Does anyone know how to get the audio working in Vlc 0.9.2
[02:28] <_Zeus_> skylar: rgrep -I 'It Works!
[02:28] <hwilde> elexodus_napping, yeah so open a terminal and type "killall firefox"
[02:29] <_Zeus_> skylar: rgrep -I 'It Works!' *
[02:29] <_Zeus_> i accidentally hit enter too early :P
[02:29] <bring2towels> mystery, is your sound working in other programs?
[02:29] <skylar> tyvm _Zeus_
[02:29] <elexodus_napping> hwilde: shall be done. Thanks a million.
[02:29] <hwilde> elexodus_napping,  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=322065  "Firefox is already running, but is not responding", now what?"
[02:29] <joester> hey
[02:29] <bring2towels> m12, thats fine, still try searching
[02:30] <hwilde> elexodus_napping, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=273906  Firefox won't start, "...already running..."
[02:30] <bring2towels> m12, probably it will take some editing of the xorg config file
[02:30] <mystery> bring2towels: It actually works fine in other programs. for some reason it wont work with vlc
[02:30] <m12> bring2towels: name of card is too wide
[02:30] <bring2towels> mystery, you can try changing the audio output device and see if one of the others works
[02:30] <bring2towels> m12, what do you mean?
[02:30] <m12> bring2towels: like : sis - 661/741/760 PCI/AGP or 662/761 PCIE VGA ....
[02:31] <m12> bring2towels: thats name of card
[02:31] <IntuitiveNipple> elexodus_napping: Usually it is caused by some problem in the profile. Start it with the profile-manager (firefox -ProfileManager) and create a new profile. make the new profile the default, and see if that cures the issue. If it does you know it is the old profile. You might want to copy the bookmarks from the old profile to the new using the Bookmark Organiser in old to export, and in new to Import
[02:31] <m12> bring2towels: notice ... OR ... ?!? :D
[02:31] <bring2towels> m12, thought it was sis256?
[02:31] <mystery> bring2towels: Im not sure how to change the audio output
[02:31] <m12> bring2towels: after edit some xorg things it offered me that sis256REAL driver...
[02:31] <bring2towels> elexodus_napping, you can also try clearing the cache, cookies, disabling addons, that kind of thing
[02:32] <bring2towels> m12, that might be right, idk, probably someone with that card has posted on the forum before
[02:32] <fire5nake> Its best to be 100% ubuntu ... windows is an asshole
[02:32] <pist0l-fish> where does ubuntu mount cds and dvds to? I want to unmount it

[02:32] <m12> bring2towels: did u notice card name ? :D
[02:32] <pist0l-fish> i think this might be my problem
[02:33] <elexodus_napping> IntuitiveNipple, bring2towels: Thanks guys. Ma shall be pleased.

[02:39] <cyban> Jack_Sparrow, Thats the one I want, where can I find it - didnt see it in this package manager
[02:40] <Jack_Sparrow> cyban I have a link.. one sec
[02:40] <cyban> cool ty, thats the one im used to heh
[02:40] <cyban> F9 to this, I kinda like it so far

[02:41] <gluonman> Hi, I'm trying to install Hardy Heron on my friend's computer. She currently has Edgy Eft. I have an external HDD that I'm using to try to copy over whatever she needs to keep. The only problem is that the disk is read only and I can't reset the permission for her to write anything to the disk. What must I do?
[02:41] <dr_willis> dock reviews --->  http://www.internetling.com/2008/03/24/linux-docks-5-mac-os-x-docks-for-ubuntu-and-other-linux-distros/
[02:41] <_Zeus_> gluonman: use sudo?
[02:41] <cyban> cool thanks Jack_Sparrow
[02:41] <Jack_Sparrow> gluonman you may need to force mount it
[02:41] <Jack_Sparrow> cyban np
[02:41] <gluonman> Jack_Sparrow, It is mounted fine.
[02:42] <gluonman> Jack_Sparrow, it' just mounted as read-only.
[02:42] <Jack_Sparrow> gluonman but it mounted read only right
[02:42] <gluonman> Jack_Sparrow, right.
[02:42] <gluonman> Jack_Sparrow, how do I force mount it?
[02:42] <Jack_Sparrow> gluonman put it in a windows box and properly remove it or you force mount it rw in ubuntu
[02:43] <Jack_Sparrow> gluonman sudo mkdir /media/locked-drive then sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/locked-drive substitute your drive for sda1
[02:43] <gluonman> Jack_Sparrow, It's mounting fine. And no windows box available. I just need to set permissions to read and write.
[02:43] <Jack_Sparrow> one sec
[02:43] <Jack_Sparrow> sudo mkdir /media/locked-drive then sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sda1 /media/locked-drive -o force  substitute your locked drive for sda1
[02:43] <IntuitiveNipple> gluonman: Is it an NTFS file-system?
[02:43] <gluonman> IntuitiveNipple, yes.
[02:43] <cyban> dr_willis, ya ive seen it - I just am used to cario which is included in some other os's
[02:43] <Jack_Sparrow> gluonman  I should have asked rather than assuming, but it is quite a common issue
[02:44] <IntuitiveNipple> gluonman: okay... as people have recommended then :)

[02:45] <gluonman> Jack_Sparrow, It's not working properly.

[02:46] <cyban> <---- Have reinstalled this OS twice today, and 2 other OS's before this one before I chose so reinstalling isnt that bad
[02:46] <Flannel> coler: Linux doesn't generally get spyware at the moment.  And even if it did, assuming you have decent security policies (which you do by default), they'd be somewhat trivial to remove.
[02:46] <coler> I just get this message of "your computer is infected

[02:49] <coler> yes
[02:49] <IntuitiveNipple> billymcc99: WOW! that *is* early!
[02:49] <coler> does ubuntu not get spyware (like windows)
[02:49] <cyban> iampondscum, turn the mouse sensitivity down?
[02:49] <Flannel> Crewsr3: because the desktop CD isn't a "real" installer, it just copies the casper image onto a harddrive.
[02:49] <Jack_Sparrow> coler nope
[02:49] <xomp> Jack_Sparrow, I got it, sorry, thought the instructions on that page were missing the mentioning of Hardy, but I see they've "lumped" a few distro's together and there sits Hardy lol
[02:49] <iampondscum> no, stop the screen from going back and forth, left to right
[02:49] <Stepan> _Zeus_: thanks, i will look into it
[02:50] <Jack_Sparrow> xomp np
[02:50] <cyban> coler, all OS's get viruses/spyware/malware but theres a lot less chance with Ubuntu or most Linux Distros
[02:50] <coler> i have python installed, anything else you recommend
[02:50] <gluonman> Jack_Sparrow, no success. It's not really an issue mounting. It mounts with full read and write permission on my hardy box. It's just her old edgy box only gives her read permissions. Otherwise it mounts fine. I just need to reset the permission to read and write.
[02:50] <Jack_Sparrow> !virus
[02:50] <punk3r> @ desaints: should be the package called "flashblock"
[02:50] <Jack_Sparrow> gluonman for edgy you will need to install ntfs-3g
[02:50] <eddwinpaz> kein__ i got wine installed , it runs the installer but exits it self after loading :S
[02:50] <Jack_Sparrow> !ntfs-3g
[02:50] <Crewsr3> Flannel, The problem I am running into is I can not get the ubuntu server to boot off of the cdrom, but I get a ubuntu desktop live session started off of a usb
[02:50] <gluonman> Jack_Sparrow, alright.
[02:51] <cyban> thats misleading from a bot ubotto :P
[02:51] <Flannel> Crewsr3: you should be able to get the server to boot off the USB as well.
[02:51] <coler> so there is no real program that will check for spyware?
[02:51] <desaints> punk3r no i dont want to uninstall any blocker program, i dont have that installed, the flash program i installed was not the adobe flash program it was some third-party flash program and it doesent work right

[02:53] <cyban> Its kinda funny IE8 comes with a built in versions of Firefox's NoScript now heh
[02:53] <bring2towels> coler, nothing can install unless you allow it, chkrootkit is mostly useful for big servers
[02:54] <ceil420> coler, the closest you really have to worry about to a Windows-style exploitation is Firefox or Opera browser exploits

[03:13] <ceil420> gluonman, i know you can just add the website, but i don't know what parameters might be needed. said website should be able to tell you exactly how to add it to sources.list

[03:15] <gluonman> ceil420, it's one of those archive sites with a list of directories. No instructional information at all. But I'll just try adding the url to sources.list. And my guess is that I need to uncomment the sources already in there.
[03:15] <ceil420> sfer3, it needs root's password, not yours

[03:17] <ceil420> sfer3, i actually use Debian, not Ubuntu; apparently they're not as similar as i'd hoped :x sorry, but someone else will have to help you
[03:18] <sfer3> Hmm
[03:18] <gluonman> ceil420, so, because the sources in sources.list don't even work at all (updating or installing is futile), I need to use this website.
[03:18] <sfer3> Can you still help me with the alsautils thing?
[03:18] <Jordan_U> sfer3: What problem are you having?
[03:18] <ceil420> gluonman, if the repos don't even work, i'd assume you can just leave them commented. is there any reason your friend can't upgrade a couple of times?
[03:19] <redvamp128> I think that even if you install Xubuntu desktop (XFCE) it will download the flash as well
[03:19] <ceil420> sfer3, alsa-utils is just a package that provides the alsaconf command
[03:19] <sfer3> ceil420: I think I know why it doesn't have it - https://bugs.launchpad.net/alsa-utils/+bug/29597
[03:19] <sfer3> If that's still up to date...
[03:19] <redvamp128> just make sure to accept the flash agreement
[03:19] <gluonman> ceil420, she once had a friend who replaced her Windows with Ubuntu a long time ago and never taught her anything about updating, etc. So she never did. Now that the rest of us are in Hardy, she's still in Edgy and updates and installations from repos don't work at all.
[03:19] <jepp> what is the command line for the gnome menu in the panel?
[03:19] <Jordan_U> sfer3: What problem are you having?
[03:19] <sfer3> Jordan_U: I'm unable to get any microphone inputs to work on my sound card with Ubuntu...
[03:20] <gluonman> ceil420, she doesn't know anything about Ubuntu other than using firefox and openoffice for simple tasks.
[03:20] <ceil420> sfer3, that's weird; i'm on Debian Lenny and got alsaconf from alsa-utils
[03:20] <ceil420> gluonman, maybe you can help her :p
[03:20] <punk3r> @ sfer3: check your bios settings, my integrated card work fine i use it to record music with no probs
[03:21] <gluonman> ceil420, well, I'm going to get her hardy (once I can get over this obstacle), and then actually teach her what she should have been taught before.
[03:21] <pibe> hello, i have a web cam, can anybody tell me one software to use it? i have ubuntu 64 bits 8.04.1
[03:21] <ceil420> gluonman, good man :)
[03:21] <sfer3> punk3r: What sort of setting should I check? It has worked before with this computer, just not with Ubuntu
[03:21] <gluonman> ceil420, but we're on wired internet, but only one wire, so I'm going to disconnect my box and connect hers and see if I can install ntfs-3g from sources.list with that website included and everything commented out.
[03:21] <Jordan_U> sfer3: Are you saying that you do not have the asoundconf command, or were you referencing that bug report for another reason?
[03:21] <gluonman> ceil420, I'll be back if there's still a problem.
[03:21] <gp|kfall> Help! I need some help with installing NVIDIA drivers and getting my wireless to work in Ubuntu, I've been doing extensive research already. Looking for an avid Ubuntu user who might be able to fix my problem! PM ME
[03:21] <syock> I confirmed that you can't sudo if your user account doesn't have password. Setting up password for good
[03:22] <ceil420> gluonman, good luck
[03:22] <punk3r> @ gp|kfall: use the nvidia drivers in the repo's, add/remove in apps or synaptic package manager
[03:23] <sfer3> Jordan_U: Well, I can't run alsaconf. Sommend doesn't exist.
[03:23] <dignan> anyone got dirty dingo installed?
[03:23] <sfer3> But upond typing asoundconf...
[03:23] <sfer3> It seems to work. :D What should I do in there?
[03:23] <gp|kfall> punk3r, Ubuntu runs at 800x600....what im trying to is fix it so it runs at a better resolution
[03:24] <dignan> gp|kfall: what resolutions does xrandr present you with?
[03:24] <gp|kfall> ive tried going to Hardware Drivers and its unchecked there, or was unchecked but now its checked with nvidia_new and it did nothing
[03:24] <dignan> gp|kfall: open a terminal: type 'xrandr'
[03:24] <gp|kfall> hmm let me install irc on my laptop next to me cuz this laptop is what runs ubuntu and i cant get wireless on there either so give me a minute ill be back
[03:24] <sfer3> Jordan_U: What should I so with asoundconf?
[03:24] <dignan> gp|kfall: probably bad values for HorizSync and VertRefresh in xorg.conf
[03:25] <ganymede> how can i run dhclient without trying to reclaim the last address? i.e. don't send a dhcprequest but connect as if it doesn't remember any of the IPs it was ever given?
[03:25] <Emylbus> Can someone help me with changing my login dialog?
[03:25] <sfer3> Anyone? What should I do with asoundconf to get the microphone input of my sound card working?
[03:26] <punk3r> @ ganymede: cant you reset dhcp addies in your router?
[03:27] <sfer3> I have the output of amixer, if that helps at all...
[03:27] <ganymede> punk3r: i'm not in control of the router. and also, currently, i'm clearing the ath0.leases file in /var/lib but it seems like an ugly solution
[03:28] <punk3r> ganymede: reset the admin settings on the router :P
[03:28] <Emylbus> Can anyone help me change my lock dialog? I've searched everywhere, but can't find an answer
[03:29] <lucax> why ubuntu is still using pulse audio if alsa is still better?
[03:29] <pibe> hello, i have a web cam, can anybody tell me one software to use it? i have ubuntu 64 bits 8.04.1
[03:29] <ganymede> punk3r: and actually, even clearing the leases file doesn't make it forget its old adresses. and also, it's not a router; it's a switch with a dhcp server. and also, i have no idea where it is physically nor do i have administrative priveleges on it
[03:29] <dr_willis> lucax,  err.. alsa is not 'better' , pulse is a feature that uses alsa. and adds new features
[03:29] <ganymede> lucax: pulse audio has a different feature set
[03:29] <gp|kfall> ok im back, what was the command that i need to run? someone with a D?
[03:30] <punk3r> bummer ..... assigning addies i believe is the job of the router/switch not the client
[03:30] <syock> I thought pulse will supersede alsa?
[03:30] <dr_willis> !pulse
[03:31] <badfish> is it rm -r to remove a directory?
[03:31] <Nallep> anyone know of a way to make the cdrom eject button run a script?
[03:31] <dr_willis> badfish,  or 'rmdir'
[03:31] <punk3r> @ pibe: http://ralph.n3rds.net/index.php?/archives/124-Webcam-installation-scripts.html
[03:31] <badfish> it's not empty
[03:31] <dr_willis> badfish,  then you can use rm -rf , or -r
[03:31] <gp|kfall> HELP! I need help installing my graphics drivers or something that will allow my screen to be at a different resolution that 800x600.
[03:32] <syock> Talk about Pulse, I remember now that I'm having trouble getting SDL apps to use Pulse server instead of opening /dev/sequencer
[03:32] <Infinito-> you want that when you press the eject button something else happens other than opening the drive?

[03:36] <Crayboff> Can anyone help me? or should I just hope someone will answer my thread?
[03:36] <ganymede> magicrobotmonkey: i was always under the impression that when you visit the Trash place, then it aggregates all the .Trash's in all mounted partitions, but i could be wron

[03:40] <m11> gp|kfall: install it
[03:40] <node357> Omar87, make sure update manager and Synaptic are not running
[03:41] <gp|kfall> m11: how? i downloaded some installer before but it wouldnt open it
[03:41] <ceil420> nabiko, glad you got it installed, but i don't know how to use it. when i installed linux, i never looked back at Windows or anything to do with it
[03:41] <gp|kfall> m11: where can i get it
[03:41] <m11> gp|kfall: google envy, u have instructions on site for newest drivers for nvidia

[03:44] <redvamp128> If you are trying to watch a .FLV file- Totem can view them- if that is what you need for a stand alone Flash Player
[03:44] <badfish> synaptic didn't do it
[03:44] <Kai> Okay, I have everything working but my mic, since there are a lot of people in this server, could we discuss this in PM?

[03:45] <skylar> what are the advantages/disadvantages of FTP vs NFS?

[03:46] <badfish> wtf what?
[03:46] <Kai> haha I think so
[03:46] <Kai> FTP transfer protocol?
[03:46] <Kai> NFS file system type?
[03:46] <badfish> lmao
[03:46] <dr_willis> kinkin,  yea.. about like comparing the pros/cons of  Snail Mail, vs The Telephone.

[03:47] <kinkin> lol
[03:47] <dr_willis> If you can use NFS to do the job.. use nfs..
[03:47] <Omar87> When I tried: "sudo apt-get update", the following error appeared: http://paste.ubuntu.com/48459/
[03:47] <dr_willis> if you want to use ftp.. well you may want to really look at ssh/sftp :)

[03:55] <skylar> what hostname returns for the machine with the nfs-server?

[03:57] <Alaskan_Dragon> no
[03:57] <Alaskan_Dragon> though somone here would have first hand experience.
[03:57] <badfish> have you tried the ubuntu forum?
[03:57] <mystery_> papna: yes thats what im talking about
[03:58] <skylar> You can replace * with one of the hostname formats. Make the hostname declaration as specific as possible so unwanted systems cannot access the NFS mount.
[03:58] <badfish> Alaskan_Dragon: have you tried the ubuntu forum?
[03:58] <somethingotherth> Hello, I have a quick question.  When I use ssh -X and then launch an then launch an app on the server, do I need to worry about the -nolisten tcp option?  Or is that off by default?
[03:58] <skylar> what are the hostname formats?
[03:58] <skylar> is it the name of the server machine or the name of a client?
[03:58] <badfish> !forum
[03:59] <badfish> Alaskan_Dragon: try the forum first, and come here if you run into trouble there
[03:59] <somethingotherth> btw, I'm running hardy on both machines
[04:00] <badfish> Alaskan_Dragon: there's a search function in the forum, and if you're fairly computer-literate, it should get you running

[04:03] <m11> how to get resolution higher then 800x600 ?
[04:03] <Gr33n3gg> The package manager should figure it all out for you.

[04:04] <bazhang> Ashex, please clarify; responsive in video, browsing or other
[04:04] <joeb3_> nabiko, type dmesg.  look for the drive

[04:07] <bazhang> rockyrock, you dont do it individually like that
[04:07] <ubuntunub> the msg Terminal gives me is basically: "[1] XXXX"
[04:08] <ubuntunub> where XXXX = some random number
[04:08] <Kai> Can someone help me install ALSA?
[04:08] <Mr_Fixit> can anyone tell me the desktop manager at the very bottom of this page?? http://www.whylinuxisbetter.net/items/window_managers/index.php?lang=
[04:08] <cyban> StephenF, lots of programs to "Undelete" files as long as you havent put a lot of data back onto the drive (Data never deletes its only ever gone if over written)
[04:08] <rockyrock> bazhang: yeah i found it in synaptic
[04:08] <bharani> how to take the image of the current OS(with softwares and settings made)....to install later
[04:08] <Jesus> .
[04:08] <lakalaka> hi.. im a linux newbie.. there is a app for mac that i use that clean ups everything.. cron scripts, system permissions, system cache, launch services, logs, etc, etc.. yasu is the name of this app.. is there something similar in linux?
[04:09] <gp|kfall> Why am I getting Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: build-essential when trying to install Envy.
[04:09] <StephenF> cyban havent written to the drive since I deleted it, I've tried photorec and a few others but this is a special file type that I dont think they can find
[04:09] <Ashex> bazhang, I already have those, I've got ten extensions loaded into firefox currently
[04:09] <ubuntunub> im pretty close to reinstalling ubuntu just to fix Pidgin lol
[04:09] <bazhang> Ashex, then disable some of them, test which are the memory hogs
[04:09] <Mr_Fixit> gp|kfall, is all you build essential packages installed from the repositories?
[04:09] <Ashex> it's not just firefox though, it's just general responsiveness, file browser has a minimal delay to it
[04:09] <bazhang> Ashex, compiz on or off
[04:10] <bharani> how to take the image of the current OS(with softwares and settings made)....to install later
[04:10] <gp|kfall> Mr_Fixit not sure, how would i find that out or install those?
[04:10] <Ashex> bazhang, it's off
[04:10] <tcleval> lakalaka when logs cant get too long by default if u are worring about that
[04:10] <clayg> where is the trsh folder located/
[04:10] <unop> gp|kfall,  sudo aptitude install build-essential
[04:10] <bazhang> Ashex, any third party repos
[04:10] <Ashex> bazhang, don't have any extra utils running the background either
[04:10] <bazhang> Ashex, please pastebin out put of top
[04:10] <bazhang> Ashex, to paste.ubuntu.com
[04:10] <Athlonea> Hello
[04:10] <Mr_Fixit> gp|kfall, in system>administration>synamptics package manager search for the build-essential packages and install them..
[04:11] <Gr33n3gg> sudo apt-get install build-essential
[04:11] <gp|kfall> unop: I get Couldn't find any packages whose name or descript. matched "build-essential"
[04:11] <sullyva86> How come when i add a bottom panel none of the apps minimize to it?
[04:11] <Athlonea> I am new to Ubuntu
[04:11] <Mr_Fixit> or do sudo apt get
[04:11] <tcleval> lakalaka about system permission, take care what u change permission, I advice u to read some linux tutorial before try to change system permissions.. anyway the commands are chown/chmod
[04:11] <Gr33n3gg> gp|kfall: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[04:11] <WhiteyWulfy> does somneone have a link for an ubuntu 6.1 vdistro to get the libpq-dev package?
[04:11] <Ashex> bazhang, http://pastebin.ca/1206341
[04:11] <unop> gp|kfall, doesn't look like you have the necessary repositories enabled - try enabling them all and try this again.
[04:11] <Mr_Fixit> gp go to a terminal and type sudo aptitude install build-essentia
[04:11] <Mr_Fixit> *gp
[04:11] <Mr_Fixit> ffs..
[04:12] <Mr_Fixit> gp|kfall,
[04:12] <FloodBot2> Mr_Fixit: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[04:12] <lakalaka> tcleval: i see.. i didnt get the logs part
[04:12] <Mr_Fixit> yea thanks flood bot..
[04:12] <Ashex> fyi. miro.real is more like 2%, that was a spike
[04:12] <gp|kfall> yeah i did, i got Couldn't find package build-essential. I ned to have necessary repositories
[04:12] <unop> Mr_Fixit, well, stop using enter as punctuation :) and floodbot won't bother you
[04:12] <Athlonea> I am new to Ubuntu, how do I install Perl modules on it?
[04:12] <Gr33n3gg> gp|kfall: open up a terminal window and type this in: sudo apt-get install build-essential
[04:12] <bazhang> Ashex, looks like miro is the culprit; you may want to use youtube-dl instead
[04:12] <mneptok> gp|kfall: sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install build-essential
[04:13] <Ashex> bazhang, I use it for grabbing hd trailers
[04:13] <tcleval> lakalaka logs cant get to long by default
[04:13] <Mr_Fixit> anyone wanna share what desktop manager is on the bottom of this page?
[04:13] <Mr_Fixit> sudo aptitude install build-essentia
[04:13] <burn__> hi guys, my vlc has no sound when i play .flv files....
[04:13] <Ashex> bazhang, I use it for download videos from rss
[04:13] <tcleval> lakalaka if are running a desktop u dont need to worry about logs
[04:13] <Mr_Fixit> oops.. damn beer..
[04:13] <unop> gp|kfall, check that the repos are enabled at.  System > administration > software sources
[04:13] <skylar> how to unmount?
[04:13] <bazhang> Ashex, okay; but it is very memory leaky and buggy imo
[04:13] <Athlonea> How do I install perl modules on Ubuntu?
[04:13] <Ashex> bazhang, gotcha
[04:13] <Mr_Fixit> http://www.whylinuxisbetter.net/items/window_managers/index.php?lang= <--- desktop manager there?
[04:13] <lakalaka> tcleval: nah im using a lap
[04:13] <unop> Athleone, what kind of perl modules?
[04:14] <Gr33n3gg> skylar: umount /dev/mydevice
[04:14] <mneptok> Athlonea: if they are not packaged, then via CPAN
[04:14] <tcleval> lakalaka samething.. .dont worry now.
[04:14] <Ashex> bazhang, any other ideas?
[04:14] <Doonz> xbmc was release for linux mac and windows the other day
[04:14] <lakalaka> tcleval: you mean specifically in linux logs dont get so long?
[04:14] <zimbres> why build-essential is not included in ubuntu, since it is essential? You can not compile a simple c code without this package.
[04:14] <Athlonea> Yeah, but how do I install it from CPAN?
[04:14] <mystery_> does anyone know how to get a video wallpaper
[04:14] <kevin__> okay so i know this isn't an "ubuntu" question -- but you guys are a lot more intellegent than the so-called "XP-pros"(if such a person exists)..anyways... does anyone know if I can use the same XP cdkey for more than one installation (i.e. comp#1 is running same xp copy as comp#2)?
[04:14] <unop> Athleone,  sudo cpan Module::Name
[04:14] <lakalaka> tcleval: but still.. is there a way to reset or not?
[04:14] <tcleval> lakalaka yes
[04:14] <bazhang> kevin__, wrong channel
[04:14] <Gr33n3gg> kevin_: this is an Ubuntu channel
[04:14] <orifice> not everyone wants to BUILD
[04:14] <bazhang> kevin__, ##windows
[04:15] <skylar> Gr33n3gg, I have a nfs system mounted on the Desktop
[04:15] <lakalaka> tcleval: and? is hard?
[04:15] <unop> kevin__, not related to ubuntu
[04:15] <Mr_Fixit> zimbres, most users won't ever need to do that.. but it should be standard..
[04:15] <Gr33n3gg> skylar: What device would you like to unmount?
[04:15] <bazhang> Ashex, any odd repos in there? did you stop miro?
[04:15] <skylar> it is on my other computer nfs
[04:15] <Gr33n3gg> You could also right click on it and go Unmount or Safely Remove (I don't remember, I'm a Slack user)
[04:15] <Ashex> bazhang, yes
[04:16] <bazhang> Ashex, which repos
[04:16] <tcleval> lakalaka just delete the files on /var/log using : sudo rm /var/log/*  ... but as i said, u dont need to do that coz u arent running a server,
[04:16] <WhiteyWulfy> ?
[04:16] <WhiteyWulfy> :|
[04:16] <WhiteyWulfy> blah
[04:16] <Ashex> bazhang, I have a few repos, mozilla ppa, boxee, dropbox
[04:16] <tcleval> lakalaka about cron scripts, u can edit then with : crontab -e
[04:16] <bazhang> Ashex, please pastebin sources.list
[04:17] <tcleval> lakalaka u should read the manual: man crontab
[04:17] <tcleval> lakalaka linux/unix is easy once u get used to manuals
[04:17] <Ashex> bazhang, http://pastebin.ca/1206344
[04:17] <skylar> Gr33n3gg, okay, I got it, thanks for thee hel
[04:18] <Gr33n3gg> skylar: np
[04:18] <bazhang> Ashex, how did you install flash for that
[04:18] <bazhang> Ashex, also there are likely conflicts with all those extra repos
[04:18] <Ashex> bazhang, downloaded it manually
[04:18] <tcleval> lakalaka everytime u reboot that log files ll be overwritten.. so you shouldnt care about them most of the time... as u are using a laptop, u ll reboot once in a while, and the logs cant get bigger than a few kbs
[04:19] <Ashex> bazhang, only additional ones enabled are boxee and dropbox
[04:19] <Ashex> the rest are disabled
[04:19] <bazhang> Ashex, how was that sources.list generated ##added by software properties ?
[04:19] <bazhang> Ashex, but you installed from them right?
[04:19] <Ashex> the top portion was by adept manager, the rest I do manually
[04:19] <ryan_> What is a good note taking app that can sync to the web and is available for both windows and linux?
[04:20] <Ashex> bazhang, yes
[04:20] <bazhang> Ashex, the odd repos, miro are the main culprits, possibly flash install as well.
[04:21] <Ashex> bazhang, I've disabled miro. I don't see how flash would affect system performance since I don't have a browser running all the time
[04:21] <bazhang> Ashex, thought you said ff performance was an issue
[04:22] <eitreach> I have added the repository for wine 1.1.5 and updated my sources, but I can't install the new version. What am I doing wrong?
[04:22] <pawan1> hi
[04:22] <Ashex> bazhang, it was one of them
[04:22] <WhiteyWulfy> can someone tell me where can i get the libpq-dev package?
[04:23] <bazhang> Ashex, how old is this install
[04:23] <Ashex> bazhang, it was more overall system is just a bit sluggish when opening apps/documents
[04:23] <WhiteyWulfy> apt-get install didnt work
[04:23] <Ashex> bazhang, about 4 months
[04:23] <ArtVandalae> Hi all, how do I set my default Window manager in GNOME? I want to change it from Metacity to awesome
[04:23] <cyban> Whats the default, Gutsy or Hardy with Ubu Desktop?
[04:23] <bazhang> Ashex, in future you may wish to have a separate home /partition ( !home )
[04:23] <eitreach> ArtVandalae: awesome --replace
[04:24] <Ashex> bazhang, I do
[04:24] <badfish> whiteywulfy: try sudo apt-get install libpq-dev
[04:24] <Ashex> I've got it on a seperate disk
[04:24] <m11> so, is there a simple way to get resolution more then 800x600 on ubuntu 8.04 ?
[04:24] <badfish> whiteywulfy: sudo is "superdo" aka: root command
[04:24] <Gr33n3gg> m11: I already gave you a link
[04:24] <Ashex> I have it configured to one disk with seperate /boot and /, then another with /home, and another that is /media/big with all my media
[04:24] <bazhang> Ashex, what java do you have installed
[04:24] <cyban> m11, you have su?
[04:24] <m11> Gr33n3gg: yes, tnx, nothing from that works
[04:24] <WhiteyWulfy> im alrady root but it cant find the package
[04:24] <m11> cyban: su ?
[04:25] <Ashex> bazhang, 1.6.0_0-b11
[04:25] <Gr33n3gg> m11: Try Google.
[04:25] <pavan_> hi all
[04:25] <bazhang> cyban, dont use su
[04:25] <crashsystems> Does anyone know of any hacks for getting Adobe Air to run on 64bit Ubuntu?
[04:25] <cyban> ah ya sudo for Ubu, keep forgetting
[04:25] <m11> Gr33n3gg: tried all options from there, maximum i can get 800x600
[04:25] <WhiteyWulfy> or su - root
[04:25] <WhiteyWulfy> works too
[04:25] <WhiteyWulfy> eh
[04:25] <badfish> i'm lovin me some damn linux!
[04:25] <bazhang> WhiteyWulfy, no
[04:25] <Gr33n3gg> Does your video card support anything higher?
[04:25] <badfish> whiteywulfy: no idea. i just sudo everything
[04:25] <pavan_> i was trying to add wxWidgets repository to the Synaptic sources but got the following error
[04:25] <bazhang> !ot > badfish
[04:26] <cyban> m11, sudo vi /etc/share/X11/xorg.conf
[04:26] <eitreach>  I have added the repository for wine 1.1.5 and updated my sources, but I can't install the new version. What am I doing wrong?
[04:26] <m11> Gr33n3gg: was working ok on 7.10 till today when i installed 8.04
[04:26] <WhiteyWulfy> k gnight
[04:26] <extor> http://www.coralcdn.org/  <-- What on earth is this and why would anyone want to use it?
[04:26] <m11> cyban: why /etc/share ?
[04:26] <badfish> what's the difference between sudo and su - root?
[04:26] <bazhang> !sudo | badfish
[04:26] <cyban> ah sry, minus the /share
[04:26] <cyban> (Not my default OS)
[04:27] <eitreach> badfish: sudo escalates priviledges for a while. su makes you root.
[04:27] <badfish> i know what sudo is
[04:27] <m11> cyban: edited it heavyly and still max 800x600
[04:27] <badfish> i've used it for 3 days now
[04:27] <cyban> m11, did it have a resolution section?
[04:27] <badfish> wulf just mentioned su -root
[04:27] <crashsystems> ah, no adobe air on 64bit for me I guess :(
[04:27] <m11> cyban: no, i added manualy
[04:27] <badfish> is su -root the rpm equivalent of sudo?
[04:27] <eitreach> badfish: su alone is root.
[04:28] <m11> cyban: subsection display --- modes ---resolutions
[04:28] <THCLOKI> hi
[04:28] <cyban> m11, wait - you added it?
[04:28] <badfish> so su -root is putting the -root syntax on root
[04:28] <Gr33n3gg> Nah, I'm not really into Pokemon
[04:28] <badfish> must be rpm
[04:28] <THCLOKI> Is that an english chatroom?
[04:28] <m11> cyban: yes, there was nothing in xorg.conf
[04:29] <cyban> m11, sec  tryin to find/remember the command to rebuild xorg
[04:29] <badfish> i thought su was super

[04:31] <THCLOKI> Some germans here?
[04:31] <FluxD> Hi, I have a question regarding vsftpd and FXP support. Can someone take a look at my conf file and see why its not working.
[04:31] <Cpudan80> or maybe..
[04:31] <bazhang> !de

[04:31] <Cpudan80> bazhang: you recognized that as chinese?
[04:31] <xadzax> Hi guys. I tried getting my USB western digital My Book to be a shared drive on Ubuntu so my Vista  machine could access it, and everything Ive tried ends up with Vista saying it cant access because of restrictions.  I tried using the gui properties, and even though the guest priveleges are set no success. I also tried adding the device into the sbm.conf with no luck. Is this possibly because ubuntu recognizes the file system on the M
[04:31] <Athleone> How do I make everything in Ubuntu larger? It suddenly became smaller....
[04:31] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> ok, so here's the thing
[04:31] <bazhang> Cpudan80, yes :)
[04:31] <Cpudan80> oh
[04:31] <Cpudan80> God for you ! :-P
[04:32] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> ok, basically, i installed ubuntu to my second hard drive via vmware workstation in winxp
[04:32] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> i verified the install would work properly and updated the boot loader with no problems
[04:33] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> i figured out the time problem as well
[04:33] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> what i can't figure out, is how to get my wireless card to connect
[04:33] <cyban> m11, I cant find generic linva drivers for onboard gfx so dont think that will work, unless theres a force display command I am not aware of in Ubu I dont know
[04:33] <THCLOKI> damnit
[04:34] <m11> cyban: it was working 6 hours ago on 7.10 :)
[04:34] <redvamp128> xadzax you tried making it fat32--- It should be easy access for Vista and Ubuntu
[04:34] <THCLOKI> no one answers me in germa  ubuntu chat
[04:34] <cyban> Yekyaa[Ubuntu], likely the driver is installed wrong, or the device isnt working - wifi in ubuntu is prety simple it finds networks prety well
[04:34] <FluxD> THCLOKI, ask your question in english here?
[04:34] <cyban> m11, did you install Emerald or something?
[04:34] <Aeroraptor> hey Flannel
[04:34] <THCLOKI> No
[04:35] <THCLOKI> But i will try
[04:35] <zashi> christ. that's a long user list
[04:35] <m11> cyban: i just want pure good old 2d 1024x768... nothing more
[04:35] <xadzax> well thats the thing...It is a fat 32..but when I look on thge Ubuntu properties it states msdos... I can navigate through the file system though with Ubuntu no probs
[04:35] <THCLOKI> Well, i have prblemes with booting Ubuntu
[04:35] <cyban> hrm, tried Enlightenment desktop?
[04:35] <FluxD> what exactly is the problem?
[04:35] <cyban> that was for m11
[04:36] <THCLOKI> Since  I typed in Terminal = pulseaudio -D
[04:36] <isabel__> hey, CostaRicanQuaker here, I downloaded ubuntu onto this old toshiba satellite 1805-s204 yesterday, i has trouble installing it, it had xp on it and there was some sort of black that wouldnt let the partitioner work, i nearly gave up but i use gparted instead and wiped the partitions and then used the use largestg  amount of continous free space option to intall it, i was able to install it but now for it to boot is necessary to press f12 and select the
[04:36] <mneptok> m11: there is no need to change desktop environments
[04:36] <root> hey i need a java.so file were can i download just that?
[04:36] <isabel__>  boot from hard drive option, otherwise if i just turn the computer it gives a message that says, wrong disk insert correct disk and press any key
[04:36] <m11> mneptok: do you know solution to this problem ?
[04:36] <mneptok> m11: boot to recovery mode, run the "xfix" option
[04:36] <milluminu> anyone running ubuntu care to wgetpaste the iphone-mount script from the ipod-convenience package for me? i run gentoo and don't have this but need it
[04:36] <m11> mneptok: give me minute please
[04:37] <xadzax> the original idea wass to share the device such that I didnt have to have anyone log in.
[04:37] <FluxD> milluminu, where is it I will try and get it
[04:37] <THCLOKI> the problem is, that i'am using Linix jsut for 3 days
[04:37] <THCLOKI> So, i'am a nup :\
[04:37] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> is this the correct channel for ubuntu support?
[04:37] <FluxD> THCLOKI, why did you do that?
[04:37] <mrtr> jhguir
[04:37] <isabel__> how do i alter the bios from inside ubuntu
[04:37] <cyban> ah there ya go, didnt know Ubu had anythin like that m11,
[04:37] <isabel__> so that everytime i restart
[04:37] <THCLOKI> Ive got problems with Flashplayer Sound
[04:37] <Guest84523> were can i sownload a java.so file so i can put it in my web plugins
[04:38] <isabel__> it just goes to boot from hard drive by default
[04:38] <mneptok> !enter > isabel__
[04:38] <Gr33n3gg> isabel_, from my knowledge, you can't. You have to go into your BIOS as your computer is starting up
[04:38] <m11> cyban: doubt that is so easy to fix :9
[04:38] <FluxD> THCLOKI, this is a temporary fix but I changed the sound driver to alsa and it worked
[04:38] <redvamp128> xadzax:  it could be that on vista you are UAC
[04:38] <mrtr> who can tell fo me chat yahoo on ubuntu 8.04?
[04:38] <THCLOKI> Yeah, i did so too, but i didn't work
[04:38] <xadzax> UAC?
[04:38] <redvamp128> Kind of like where some things have to run as Root- or SUdo
[04:38] <FluxD> THCLOKI, try one of the other ones
[04:38] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> User Access Control
[04:39] <Guest84523> can some one send me a java.so file so i can play java games
[04:39] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> wanna-be sudo
[04:39] <THCLOKI> Well, thats not my problem
[04:39] <m11> mneptok: booting recovery mode
[04:39] <g0tcha> hey guys, anyone knows what this means: gotcha is not in the sudoers file.  This incident will be reported. ?
[04:39] <Guest84523> im on 5.10 so i cant normaly install java
[04:39] <THCLOKI> Ubuntu doesn't boot
[04:39] <m11> mneptok: chose xfix ?
[04:39] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> Guest: no idea about java.so, i can't access internet from Ubuntu when booting to it, only when using vmware from winxp
[04:39] <THCLOKI> Since i have changed some settings via Terminal
[04:39] <FluxD> !recovery | THCLOKI
[04:39] <mneptok> m11: aye
[04:39] <vocx> Guest84523, that version has run its course and is no longer supported, please upgrade!
[04:40] <THCLOKI> Ah
[04:40] <m11> mneptok: done
[04:40] <FluxD> THCLOKI, did u try recovery mode?
[04:40] <Guest84523> i cvant
[04:40] <THCLOKI> thx
[04:40] <m11> mneptok: reboot ?
[04:40] <Guest84523> i cant
[04:40] <mneptok> m11: continue booting normally now
[04:40] <THCLOKI> No, i did not
[04:40] <xadzax> Hmmm. The user has no restrictions
[04:40] <m11> mneptok: resume normal boot ?
[04:40] <xadzax> its a admin
[04:40] <mneptok> m11: aye
[04:40] <THCLOKI> But i will try it, thx :)
[04:40] <FluxD> THCLOKI, in grub try that
[04:40] <Guest84523> omg can some one just go into there web plugings and send me a java.so file
[04:40] <m11> mneptok: booting
[04:40] <THCLOKI> But, will the Stystem keep my Setting and Drivers?
[04:41] <FluxD> THCLOKI, It should
[04:41] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> just curious, does anyone have any experience with Broadcom Chipset 4303 (rev 03) Wireless Adapters, such as Motorola WCP810G?  I got up to the point it's recognizing, and I can't get it to scan at all, works fine in Winxp
[04:41] <mneptok> Guest84523: upgrade. don;t ask random people on the Internet to send you binaries.
[04:41] <eitreach> g0tcha: is your user privileged to administer the system?
[04:41] <THCLOKI> Wonderfull
[04:41] <Guest84523> i cant upgrade i ill ask people what i wanna ask people
[04:41] <m11> mneptok: as i thought, nothing hapaned
[04:41] <g0tcha> eitreach, yes, i used the sudo commands just couple of hours ago
[04:41] <FluxD> Yekyaa[Ubuntu], you have to use the firmware from windows drivers and use the linux drivers
[04:41] <enos> how do i create an img from a cd?
[04:42] <eitreach> g0tcha: then it's over my head I'm affraid.
[04:42] <mneptok> m11: are you stuck in a low resolution?
[04:42] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> Flux: did that already, not sure where i screwed up, but i used bcm43-fwcutter to get it
[04:42] <m11> mneptok: yes
[04:42] <mneptok> m11: graphic chipset?
[04:42] <m11> mneptok: Sis
[04:42] <xadzax> Well lemme ask this then. Would I need to even bother with the smb.conf Or is the gui proerties/sharing menu supposed to work with no probs
[04:42] <FluxD> milluminu, where is the script I can get it for you?
[04:42] <mneptok> m11: does SiS provide open (or closed) X11 drivers?
[04:42] <THCLOKI> mhm
[04:43] <THCLOKI> I am on withg windows
[04:43] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> Flux: got em all installed, followed 3 different guides, even blacklisted ndiswrapper, and that worked for all of 10 minutes, but network manager crashed/closed when i tried to connect to a local unsecured network
[04:43] <m11> mneptok: was runing all ok on 1024x768 6 hours ago on 7.10
[04:43] <enos> image!
[04:43] <mneptok> m11: sounds like you're in VESA mode because X11 can't find any better driver for your graphics
[04:43] <hwilde> woah there
[04:43] <hwilde> way to out her
[04:43] <Ash-Fox> THCLOKI, you must repent.
[04:43] <m11> mneptok: VESA supports 1024x768
[04:43] <THCLOKI> Sry, i am german what means repent?
[04:43] <mannytu> should you increase the screen size when running Ubuntu in Virtualbox?
[04:43] <stickboy> anyone here got cod4 to run in wine?
[04:43] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> biblical term: ask forgiveness
[04:43] <m11> mneptok: i cant get higher then 960x600
[04:44] <Guest84523> a lot of people ran cod4 in wine and crysis for that matter
[04:44] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> Flux: any other suggestions? i got it to recognize it completely, it's just not connecting/scanning
[04:44] <THCLOKI> m11 chose an other monirotsetting
[04:44] <vocx> m11, do "man sis", apparently there is a driver, but I don't know if your card is supported.
[04:44] <Ash-Fox> Guest10840, cod4 does not work in Wine.
[04:44] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> i'm running Ubuntu through VMWare right now
[04:44] <m11> vocx: it is no problem for driver, it is problem ubuntu not loading it
[04:45] <mneptok> m11: sounds like a misisng or broken SiS driver
[04:45] <mneptok> m11: get a real video chipset? :/
[04:45] <stickboy> well i'm trying to get cod4 to run in wine. installed and did nocd crack. when i run singleplayer i get a runtime error r6002 - floating point support not loaded. multiplayer just gives me a blank screen and messes up my resolution.
[04:45] <m11> mneptok: just resolution fix problem
[04:45] <Ash-Fox> stickboy, cod4 does not work in wine, period.
[04:45] <mneptok> m11: no, if the driver is broken, then you will not be able to use any higher resolutions
[04:45] <xadzax> well, ill keep fighting with it. it should be an easy thing i guess.
[04:45] <Ash-Fox> stickboy, I will tripple check for you.
[04:45] <jocker007> hi
[04:45] <m11> mneptok: i doubt it is broken
[04:46] <redvamp128> xadzaz
[04:46] <stickboy> ash-fox there's tutorials up for it and says it works just can't get on punkbuster servers for multi.
[04:46] <xadzax> yeah
[04:46] <m11> mneptok: rather would say ubuntu dindnt set it up properly
[04:46] <redvamp128> PM me-- I think I know what may have happened
[04:46] <mannytu> 800x600 kinda small...
[04:46] <THCLOKI> m11: there is a tool whre you can change you monitorsettings
[04:46] <gp|kfall> How do i get Flash to work on Ubuntu? I have the 64bit version of Ubuntu(i think, if there is a way i can check tell me)
[04:46] <THCLOKI> i do not know the name
[04:47] <m11> THCLOKI: yes there might be if u have resolutions enabled
[04:47] <THCLOKI> but i had the same problem
[04:47] <Ash-Fox> stickboy, I appologize, it's working now in appdb with wine 1.1.2 to 1.1.4
[04:47] <chris4585> question, if i clear my mbr will it be impossible to boot any of my partitions?
[04:47] <m11> THCLOKI: if u dont have resolutions, u cant do SH#"$%
[04:47] <chris4585> for example i have grub on a memory stick, could i still my partitions up if i clear my mbr?
[04:47] <stickboy> ash-fox i'm on 1.1.4 but i can't get it to work.
[04:47] <Ash-Fox> stickboy, punkbuster is a seperate application to call of duty 4. Since it acts as a kernel driver, it probably wouldn't work, but let met check the application database.
[04:47] <jocker007> for example i have grub on a memory stick, could i still my partitions up if i clear my mbr?
[04:48] <indian_munnda> can anyone tell me how can avoid my archives from getting cleaned from the archives folder???
[04:48] <chris4585> gp|kfall, install ubuntu-restricted-extras that should get flash working
[04:48] <stickboy> ash-fox yeah punkbuster doesn't work so can't get on servers that need it.
[04:48] <mannytu> restricted drivers...
[04:48] <stickboy> ash-fox right now i can't even get them to run for more than a few seconds.
[04:48] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> cyban: i noticed you were trying to help me earlier along with FluxD  do either of you have any other suggestions, or should i go in more detail on what steps i've taken?
[04:48] <Ash-Fox> stickboy, according to the application database, it doesn't work at all, http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=3896
[04:48] <FluxD> Yekyaa[Ubuntu], I used ndiswrapper using this tut let me find it
[04:48] <ianq> i got a new dvd drive today and ubuntu isn't picking it up automatically. is there any way i can check if it's recognized by the computer e.g. in the bios before i assume that it's an ubuntu issue?
[04:49] <stickboy> ash-fox well right now neither does singleplayer so something else is wrong
[04:49] <indian_munnda> can anyone tell me how can avoid my archives from getting cleaned from the archives folder???
[04:49] <Ash-Fox> stickboy, single player issue would be a seperate issue
[04:49] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> FluxD: also, how would i uninstall the existing packages, or do i have to worry about them interfering/conflicting?
[04:49] <uriel_> how do i install microsoft office 2007 on ubuntu?
[04:49] <SchmittyDoesIt> can you set DNS with ifconfig
[04:49] <SchmittyDoesIt> i need to set DNS in shell because the gui is not changing it and i have already done a down/up
[04:49] <FluxD> Yekyaa[Ubuntu], yea remove them for now
[04:49] <vocx> ianq, type "dmesg" in the terminal or view the logs, the kernel should say something about it.
[04:49] <m11> i am starting to be boring to myself, is there a way ubuntu can set resolution higher then 800x600 ?
[04:49] <Ash-Fox> uriel_, install crossover and install office 2007 through that
[04:49] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> FluxD: what if I don't know what packages I installed ;;  :(
[04:49] <ianq> vocx: one moment
[04:50] <Ash-Fox> uriel_, you can get crossover from www.codeweavers.com
[04:50] <gp|kfall> m11: i got mine to work
[04:50] <stickboy> ash-fox well i'd like to get either working but multi would be preferable.
[04:50] <SchmittyDoesIt> can you DNS with ifconfig?
[04:50] <FluxD> Yekyaa[Ubuntu], well then wait
[04:50] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> FluxD: ok, waiting, and thank you ^^
[04:50] <m11> gp|kfall: yes , no problems with ati/nvidia/intell
[04:50] <indian_munnda> can anyone tell me how can avoid my archives from getting cleaned from the archives folder???
[04:50]  * enos just made a cdrom image using "dd" !!!
 thank you  ill downlaod it and ask u in  a muinut if thats ok
[04:50] <enos> Neat!
[04:50] <FluxD> Yekyaa[Ubuntu], http://www.linuxscrew.com/2007/09/19/get-wi-fi-working-on-dell-inspiron-1501-with-ubuntu/ that shows a dell driver but get ur windows driver from broadcom
[04:50] <Ash-Fox> stickboy, http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=12804 there are some instructions here that might be of use.
[04:50] <gp|kfall> m11: none at all ... just did sudo apt-get update or w/e and that did it...i used the link i got from the nvidia website and it worked
[04:51] <gp|kfall> m11: didnt even need envy
[04:51] <vocx> indian_munnda, you make no sense. What archives folder? Files aren't removed magically.
[04:51] <stickboy> ash-fox i followed http://www.fsckin.com/2008/02/21/how-to-run-call-of-duty-4-cod4-modern-combat-in-linux/ but used a different crack.
[04:51] <m11> gp|kfall: as i said , no problems with nvidia/ati/intell
[04:51] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> FluxD: i actually got the driver from Motorola's website, but it's still the broadcom driver, same name
[04:51] <runa> hey :) when I installed my ubuntu I didn't had the alternate CD to make an encrypted LVM fs, but now, I would like to at least encrypt my home. Do you have any hints?
[04:51] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> FluxD: checking out the site
[04:51] <FluxD> Yekyaa[Ubuntu], get it from broadcom, that worked for me 100% using my own compiled ndiswrapper
 do i have to but it?
[04:52] <Ash-Fox> stickboy, I have the steam version, but I haven't tried with the recent wine releases.
[04:52] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> FluxD: crap i have to compile my own ndiswrapper? lol ;;
[04:52] <FluxD> Yekyaa[Ubuntu], yes sadly but its not that hard
[04:52] <Ash-Fox> uriel_, no, you can use the trial for 30 days or become a advocate to get a free copy.
[04:52] <FluxD> Yekyaa[Ubuntu], the repo version is really outdated and doesnt work
[04:52] <indian_munnda> vocx: when i install any package from synaptic its saves its archives in /var/cache/apt/archives but after some time these archives are removed automatically.
[04:53] <indian_munnda> vocx: i wanna avoid that.
[04:53] <pawan1> hi
[04:53] <vocx> Yekyaa[Ubuntu], I've heard that since there are many broadcom drivers, if you use ndiswrapper you may try several drivers, even if they have the same name.
[04:53] <pibe> hello, can anybody tell me a webcam softare for ubuntu 64 bits?
[04:53] <Ash-Fox> uriel_, I would suggest using the trial before taking a action like purchasing, to make sure everything works fine.
[04:53] <FluxD> !webcam | pibe
[04:53] <Guest84523> why cant some one send me a java.so
[04:53] <Ash-Fox> pibe, kopete
[04:53] <FluxD> pibe, also look at linuxappfinder.com
[04:53] <stickboy> ash-fox i got steam to work but couldn't get fonts and hud display to work for tf2
[04:53] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> FluxD: thanks for the tip, now i just need to figure out how to make stuff on my machine, reading that faq
[04:54] <FluxD> Guest10840, for what version?
[04:54] <ianq> vocx: uhm, how do i route dmesg output into a file?
[04:54] <Ash-Fox> stickboy, it might be easier for you to use crossover games...
 ok but is there a way to run it through wine?
[04:54] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> vocx: does that mean i can try different drivers without conflicts? or is what you're saying a bad thing?
[04:54] <vocx> indian_munnda, well, yes, they are "cache", variable information that can be deleted whenever necessary to free space. You can move whatever you like to a permanent directory you know.
[04:54] <Ash-Fox> stickboy, really, you should follow the instructions for most things on the wine application database
[04:54] <stickboy> ash-fox how? i might set up a vm actually.
[04:54] <pibe> Ash-Fox: thanks kopete, i see my webcam works :D
[04:54] <IntuitiveNipple> Guest84523: It would have to be built with the same version of gcc as the libraries installed on your PC.
[04:55] <Ash-Fox> stickboy, vms like qemu, vmware lack proper 3d acceleration to play games.
[04:55] <indian_munnda> vocx: ok thanks dude
[04:55] <jong> hi, anyone knows how I can unmask a package? I'd like to install the nvidia-drivers-177.67 package which apparently is still masked per beta
[04:55] <stickboy> ash-fox virtualbox won't work?
[04:55] <Ash-Fox> stickboy, I doubt it.
[04:55] <vocx> ianq, you can use "dmesg | less" or "dmesg > file"   you don't have to view this in the terminal, in the menus System > Administration you can also find the logs
[04:56] <athleone> Hello.
[04:56] <pengo> rsync slows down my machine even when run nice.. how can i stop it clogging IO ?
[04:56] <uriel_> any1 know how to install microsoft office through WINE?
[04:56] <johnwedd> help: i'm haveing trouble with the wifi built in to my laptop, its a dell inspiron 1501/amd Wubi install, i've tried ndiswrapper, and others, but i cannot connect, or detect any wifi networks in range
[04:56] <IntuitiveNipple> qemu has just begun adding opengl/sdl patches
[04:57] <vocx> Yekyaa[Ubuntu], well yes, you can try different drivers through ndiswrapper, not at the same time, but you know, test one, doesn't work, unload ndiswrapper and try the next one.
[04:57] <NinjaBuntu> Trying to play games is hard in Ubuntu Studio... Also seems like there is zero activity in the Channel so I'm just going to have to ask here. I am getting no sound at all. I switched my sounds over to ALSA Going to [System -> Preferences -> Sound] and still no joy. I know The ZSNES Emulator Pumps out sound under Linux, Heck even in Ubuntu, but what the heck going on with ubuntu studio making most of my game sounds not work?...
[04:57] <jong> hi, anyone knows how I can unmask a package? I'd like to install the nvidia-drivers-177.67 package which apparently is still masked per beta
[04:58] <isabel__> how can i edit the bios options from ubuntu so it chooses to boot directly from hard drive everytime when i press f12 it asks from which device i want to boot from but what i want is to jump to grub right from start off
[04:58] <Kleedrac> I'm officially stumped ... got Ubuntu installed on a friend's computer ... grub was working fine ... he took the computer home and now he can boot to ubuntu but not to windows?!
[04:58] <xtwochu>  /msg NickServ VERIFY REGISTER xtwochu nvuizbbjjufu
[04:58] <ianq> vocx: http://pastebin.com/d4f9ab69f
[04:59] <vocx> isabel__, bios options are specific to every computer, check the internet or your computer's manual
[05:00] <isabel__> vocx, but isnt there a way i can edit the bios from ubuntu maybe from the terminal?
[05:00] <isabel__> i installed an stripped down version of ubuntu, right now i'm installing kubuntu
[05:00] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> isabel__, are you unable to access the bios on the computer directly?
[05:00] <isabel__> i can't do a clean install
[05:01] <IntuitiveNipple> isabel__: no, you have to do that during start-up before the BIOS initialises the system. Usually you press F2 or Del to get to the menu, where you can find boot device options
[05:01] <jong> hi, anyone knows how I can unmask a package? I'd like to install the nvidia-drivers-177.67 package which apparently is still masked per beta
[05:01] <vocx> isabel__, nope, BIOS is the very basic operating system your computer needs to boot, you can edit the BIOS even if you don't have other Operating system
[05:01] <isabel__> when the computer boots up it shows a screen that says toshiba and press f12 to go to bios, there i can choose to boot from the hard drive and the grub starts
[05:02] <isabel__> the boot up screen only offers f12 and i think f6 did the same thing as f12 but otherwise how do i get to the bios configuration
[05:02] <mytears> who is known how to write makefile?a very easy problem .And my english is very pool
[05:02] <vocx> isabel__, usually is by presing Del or maybe Esc
[05:02] <IntuitiveNipple> isabel__: it sounds as if you need to press some other key (try F2 or Del) immediately the PC starts before you see the F12 prompt. If someone has a Toshiba maybe they can be more help.
[05:02] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> isabel__, or F2
[05:02] <badfish> F2 is bios
[05:03] <isabel__> ok once i do that what do i have to do?
[05:03] <mytears> wo can help me
[05:03] <badfish> toshiba makes computers?
[05:03] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> lol
[05:03] <badfish> isabel__: read
[05:03] <isabel__> alter the boot up order so it boots?
[05:03] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> isabel__ 2 HDs?
[05:03] <badfish> i remember those days
[05:03] <badfish> for some reason grub always thinks it's on hd0
[05:03] <badfish> even if it's on hd1
[05:03] <vocx> mytears, if you are trying to use makefiles but you don't know how to write them you are doing something wrong, what do you want to install?
[05:03] <isabel__> i dont want to make ubuntu unaccesible badfish
[05:03] <IntuitiveNipple> isabel__: if that works, find the boot device options, change the boot order so it is CD then hard-disk, then find the 'save and exit' option and save
[05:04] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> looking forward to grub2 being completed
[05:04] <m11> are there any ubuntu experts here ?
[05:04] <badfish> isabel__: i never made ubuntu unaccesible
[05:04] <isabel__> IntuitiveNipple, i think it's already set to cd, i want to do set it to hard disk first
[05:04] <m11> whats wrong with resolution setup on ubuntu 8.04 ?
[05:04] <badfish> isabel__: i never touched linux in my life, and neither vista nor ubuntu was unaccessable
[05:04] <m11> i have followed each and every guide to get 1024x768 and i have no succses
[05:04] <jong> hi, anyone knows how I can unmask a package? I'd like to install the nvidia-drivers-177.67 package which apparently is still masked per beta
[05:05] <vocx> mytears, you don't need a big makefile to use gcc, what do you want to compile?
[05:05] <badfish> isabel__: are you using livecd now?
[05:05] <ianq> vocx: i didn't see anything wrong in dmesg
[05:05] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> FluxD: That ndiswrapper link is from 1 year ago (2007), what's the latest version of ndiswrapper? I'm assuming it isn't 1.47
[05:06] <isabel__> badfish, nope, its already installed but after installation it looked like it was expecting a cd because if i dont go tot he prompt and ask for it to boot from hard disk it says something along the lines of incorrect system disk insert disk and press any key to continue
[05:06] <johnwedd> help, i'm haveing trouble with my built in wifi card on my laptop, ive already tried ndiswrapper, but it doesn't work.
[05:06] <vocx> ianq, what is this thing? I forgot, a DVD drive?
[05:06] <m11> i am strugling for 8 hours now to get resolution more then 800x600 in ubuntu 8.04, this seems like imposible task
[05:06] <IntuitiveNipple> isabel__: It is usual to allow CD first so if needed the system can boot from one if the hard disk won't boot for any reason. As long as no bootable CD is in the drive when the PC starts it will be ignored and the PC will boot from hard disk
[05:06] <ianq> vocx: yes sir
[05:06] <badfish> isabel__: it definitely does not say "error 17: cannot mount selected partition," correct?
[05:07] <IntuitiveNipple> isabel__: That error you mentioned sounds like Windows :)
[05:07] <badfish> isabel__: do you have a flash usb drive plugged in when you boot?
[05:07] <vocx> mytears, there is a make manual you can install "sudo aptitude install make-doc"  read that
[05:07] <isabel__> IntuitiveNipple, what does it look like it's set up to do then? it definetly isn't just moving on to hard drive but asks for a disk to be inserted and i did that for a moment to see if the livecd would work but even when i did that it still prompted me to insert disk and press any key
[05:07] <IntuitiveNipple> isabel__: Is Windows also installed on that PC?
[05:07] <badfish> windows don't mean shit if grub is booting first
[05:08] <badfish> i mean
[05:08] <isabel__> badfish, nope it doesnt say that, and no i dont have a flash driver plugged in when i boot up
[05:08] <badfish> windows don't mean crap
[05:08] <IntuitiveNipple> language, timothy!
[05:08] <johnwedd> help, i'm haveing trouble with my built in wifi card on my laptop, ive already tried ndiswrapper, but it doesn't work
[05:08] <badfish> do you have 2 separate hdd's?
[05:08] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> i'm retrying ndiswrapper myself, johnwedd ;;
[05:08] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> what's the latest version of ndiswrapper, anyone know?
[05:08] <isabel__> windows xp was at one point also isntalled on the computer and it wouldn't let the ubuntu partitioner format the cd
[05:08] <badfish> isabel__: is ubuntu on a separate hard drive disk?
[05:08] <mn_> johnwedd: the only choice you got if ndiswrapper doesn't work is to find a native or get a different card
[05:09] <vocx> mytears, post it in a pastebin
[05:09] <isabel__> i had to use gparted and then
[05:09] <badfish> oh man
[05:09] <isabel__> install it
[05:09] <badfish> it wouldn't let ubuntu format what cd?
[05:09] <jong> hi, anyone knows how I can unmask a package? I'd like to install the nvidia-drivers-177.67 package which apparently is still masked per beta
[05:09] <isabel__> badfish, nope
[05:09] <johnwedd> i have an old belkin usb wifi card, think that work?
[05:09] <badfish> how did you partition your hard drive?
[05:09] <FluxD> Yekyaa[Ubuntu], yea use latest version
[05:09] <mn_> no idea
[05:09] <isabel__> when i used the livecd it wouldnt' let the ubuntu partitioner
[05:09] <isabel__> use the whole disk
[05:09] <isabel__> so it wouldnt install
[05:09] <vocx> ianq, how many hard drives or DVD drives do you have?
[05:09] <badfish> isabel__: so you haven't installed ubuntu yet?
[05:09] <isabel__> it wouldnt erase the windows partition
[05:10] <ianq> Yekyaa[Ubuntu]: 1.53 afaik
[05:10] <uriel_> how do i run. install Microsoft Office 2007 with wine?
[05:10] <isabel__> yes,n i had to use gparted
[05:10] <mn_> johnwedd:  i have no idea but you can always try it
[05:10] <isabel__> deleted some partitions
[05:10] <Daps> I created a user, now i can't get rid of it..
[05:10] <badfish> i don't know anything about gparted
[05:10] <ianq> vocx: one hard drive, one dvd drive
[05:10] <isabel__> except a small one that it wouldn't let me delete
[05:10] <ianq> vocx: and one floppy drive ;)
[05:10] <badfish> so you formatted the entire xp hard drive?
[05:10] <isabel__> and then i was able to install ubuntu from the livecd
[05:10] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> ianq, FluxD tried getting latest version from sourceforge but i'm getting a 404 any suggestions?
[05:10] <badfish> :facehands:
[05:10] <johnwedd> mn_: i'll do that later, rebooting between the two systems is annoying
[05:10] <Daps> how can i get rid of the user i created
[05:11] <badfish> isabel: native language?
[05:11] <badfish> isabel__: native language?
[05:11] <isabel__> how do you mean?
[05:11] <mn_> johnwedd: yep, I used to have to do that until i got wifi to work in my linux
[05:11] <badfish> isabel__: what language did you learn first in your lifetime?
[05:11] <vocx> ianq, but how are they connected, SATA or PATA, the dmesg say ata2 is disabled, maybe disabled from BIOS, but you checked that right?
[05:11] <isabel__> what do you mean by that? what's my computer's "native language· or what is mine
[05:11] <isabel__> oh
[05:11] <isabel__> spanish
[05:11] <badfish> !spanish
[05:12] <isabel__> but i have an english installation of ubuntu
[05:12] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> Never mind, found it :)
[05:12] <badfish> !spanish > isabel__
[05:12] <isabel__> and well...it's too awkward to refer to things
[05:12] <ianq> vocx: assume i don't know anything about hardware
[05:12] <isabel__> ubuntu in spanish
[05:12] <kiah> /bin/sh: -c: line 0: syntax error near unexpected token `done'
[05:12] <kiah> /bin/sh: -c: line 0: `while true; so echo "Hello"; sleep 120; done'
[05:12] <johnwedd> mn_:  does ubuntu autodetect these things?
[05:12] <kiah> arghghh
[05:12] <badfish> i speak a little spanish
[05:12] <badfish> and a little spanglish
[05:12] <isabel__> no no, it slows information exchange by at least thirty percent
[05:12] <kiah> sorry about that. I didn't mean to paste
[05:12] <badfish> spanglish
[05:12] <badfish> teach me some new words
[05:12] <mn_> johnwedd: autodetect what?  USB devices?
[05:12] <IntuitiveNipple> isabel__: Does the PC boot Ubuntu if you do the F12 device selection manually?
[05:13] <isabel__> um....bad
[05:13] <johnwedd> mn_: yes
[05:13] <badfish> f12?
[05:13] <badfish> f2?
[05:13] <_PeteParker_> does someone has a RicoH sd cardreader working?
[05:13] <badfish> negative pete
[05:13] <mn_> johnwedd: yes, it autodetects my USB flash drive
[05:13] <isabel__> IntuitiveNipple, yes but i dont want to have to do that everytime
[05:13] <badfish> there's the guy
[05:14] <IntuitiveNipple> isabel__: ok, I was just making sure you have a working system of some kind!
[05:14] <isabel__> IntuitiveNipple, i don't want to have to press f12 everytime
[05:14] <_PeteParker_> that really sucks, i have tu use a usb card reader :(
[05:14] <badfish> lmao
[05:14] <isabel__> ok
[05:14] <_PeteParker_> thanks anyway
[05:14] <_PeteParker_> :)
[05:14] <FloodBot2> _PeteParker_: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:14] <badfish>  _PeteParker: keep asking
[05:14] <badfish>  _PeteParker_: keep asking
[05:14] <_PeteParker_> what?
[05:14] <badfish>  _PeteParker_: or check the forum
[05:15] <badfish>  _PeteParker_: once in a while someone comes along who knows
[05:15] <_PeteParker_> am i flooding?
[05:15] <_PeteParker_> that's strange
[05:15] <vocx> ianq, mmm... open your PC case, and check the cables, also reading the Wikipedia entries on SATA and EIDE should help
[05:15] <badfish>  _PeteParker_: it's a bot
[05:15] <ianq> vocx: i checked the cables twice already
[05:15] <badfish>  _PeteParker_: just don't get stupid and it doesn't matter
[05:15] <_PeteParker_> oh, i have i little other problem here, if you could help me
[05:15] <ianq> vocx: let me read those articles
[05:15] <badfish>  _PeteParker_: either someone here or in the forum will make it work
[05:15] <zbadone> I'm trying to install compiz-fusion with a nvidia GeForce 6200, which X server do  I need to install?
[05:16] <badfish>  _PeteParker_: i don't knwo about yoru flash card reader
[05:16] <ianq> vocx: i can't seem to find anything in the bios pertaining to the issue
[05:16] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> woot, making ndiswrapper 1.53 yay!
[05:16] <_PeteParker_> every time i reboot my laptop it stucks in the post
[05:16] <legend2440> _PeteParker_: http://www.arsgeek.com/2007/04/30/get-your-ricoh-sd-card-reader-working-in-ubuntu/
[05:16] <_PeteParker_> checking for the hard drive
[05:16] <badfish> !forum > _PeteParker_
[05:16] <vocx> ianq, but besides that, when you start your computer get into the BIOS and check that both drives or devices in each connector are enabled.
[05:16] <zbadone> nvidia-glx-new gives me a white screen when running compiz
[05:16] <_PeteParker_> i've read something about the acpi
[05:16] <_PeteParker_> there is a way to solve this
[05:16] <_PeteParker_> ?
[05:16] <badfish> i thought acpi was windows
[05:16] <vocx> !enter | _PeteParker_
[05:17] <_PeteParker_> i don't know the exact name, maybe it's APIC, now i'm confused hieueahieuhaeui
[05:17] <badfish>  _PeteParker_: ur outta my leage
[05:17] <badfish>  _PeteParker_: try the forum
[05:17] <IntuitiveNipple> isabel__:  I suspect you might need to use grub-install with suitable options - it sounds as if the BIOS isn't finding the master boot record boot signature. I could be wrong because your situation is vague, but it would explain why you get the BIOS device prompt each time.
[05:18] <badfish>  _PeteParker_: otherwise, repeat your query here and someone will get to you as soon as they have an idea what you're talkin about
[05:18] <ianq> vocx: i've got under devices: serial port setup, usb setup, parallel port setup, video setup, IDE drives setup, audio and network
[05:18] <xomp> can someone help me with this fglrxinfo? I don't know what this means.
[05:18] <_PeteParker_> badfish thanks for the link, i've tried that already :)
[05:18] <badfish>  _PeteParker_: i just picked up ubuntu yesterday
[05:18] <isabel__> IntuitiveNipple, how do i do that?
[05:18] <IntuitiveNipple> isabel__: Before messing with GrUB I'd try what we suggested earlier. As the PC starts try pressing Del or F2 to get into the BIOS settings menu and set the boot order options
[05:18] <badfish>  _PeteParker_: all i'm tryin to do is my part
[05:18] <pibe86> hello again, fat32 dn vfat are the sane file sistem? is there any difference?
[05:18] <pibe86> and*
[05:18] <_PeteParker_> badfish ok, don't worry, thanks a lot for your attention :)
[05:18] <isabel__> to what order though IntuitiveNipple?
[05:18] <IntuitiveNipple> isabel__: The key has to be pressed very early - before the F12 prompt appears
[05:18] <badfish>  _PeteParker_: if you have a brother printer/scanner, i can help you with that
[05:19] <badfish>  _PeteParker_: good luck
[05:19] <m11> anyone knows how to setup resolution for ubuntu ?
[05:19] <pibe86> fat32 and vfat are the same file sistem? is there any difference?*
[05:19] <_PeteParker_> badfish have you switched from windows?
[05:19] <vocx> mytears, that post has incorrect indentation, you realize that?
[05:19] <badfish>  _PeteParker_: vista
[05:19] <_PeteParker_> uh... heavy
[05:19] <favro> pibe86: yes - linux calls fat   vfat
[05:19] <badfish>  _PeteParker_: i'm running dual boot with a preference for ubuntu
[05:19] <IntuitiveNipple> isabel__: As I said before, CD then hard-disk. If the PC has a floppy fdisk you might make it floppy, CD, hard-disk
[05:19] <FelixTheCat> _PeteParker_: Are you talking about passing 'noapic' and 'nolapic' at boot?
[05:19] <pibe86> favro: so vfat is in linux and fat32 in win2?
[05:19] <badfish> flash before floppy
[05:20] <_PeteParker_> badfish, greate, thats good to start, i switched from windows 1 year ago
[05:20] <m11> can anyone help me set resolution 1024x768 in ubuntu ?
[05:20] <isabel__> IntuitiveNipple, floppy fdisk?
[05:20] <FAJALOU> m11;  what is the video card?
[05:20] <favro> pibe86: if linux finds a fat32 partition it calls it vfat
[05:20] <m11> FAJALOU: it says SIS Real 256e
[05:20] <IntuitiveNipple> isabel__: yes, if the PC has one... the devices are ignored unless they have media in them when the PC starts
[05:20] <_PeteParker_> FelixTheCat: actually i don't know the problem, i've read that it is something with the APIC table on my laptop, it stucks every time I reboot in the post trying to find my hard drive
[05:21] <Macrosoft> what i did was make a 1GB ext3 partition in my first drive, and installed grub over the MBR
[05:21] <pibe86> favro: ok thanks,  because i have a patition and i formated with mkfs.vfat /dev/sda5
[05:21] <FelixTheCat> _PeteParker_: Have you already tried passing at least 'noapic' at boot time?
[05:21] <FAJALOU> hi how can i find out what my network key is?
[05:21] <Macrosoft> ...works great for dual boot
[05:21] <isabel__> IntuitiveNipple, floppy =normal common floppy?
[05:21] <pibe86> that to share files with my bro
[05:21] <_PeteParker_> FelixTheCat, yep, same problem
[05:21] <IntuitiveNipple> isabel__: yes
[05:21] <vocx> mytears, I know, I mean the makefile... you could build that with "gcc -o printf main.c hello.c" now just compile the object files before the executable
[05:21] <badfish> pibe86: i've used fat32; never used vfat
[05:21] <FelixTheCat> _PeteParker_: How about 'nolapic'?
[05:22] <favro> pibe86: windows should see that as fat32
[05:22] <Macrosoft> badfish: they are almost exactly the same
[05:22] <_PeteParker_> FelixTheCat, yes, same thing
[05:22] <snadge> !nvidia
[05:22] <vgambit> I just installed the latest version of ubuntu on a second partition on my laptop, so I can dual boot it with windows xp, but I get error 18 when I turn on the pc
[05:23] <badfish> Macrosoft: almost is ~; equal is =
[05:23] <IntuitiveNipple> _PeteParker_: Can I be clear? The hang is during POST after a reboot, so the problem seems to be a result of an unclean device/controller shutdown by the driver
[05:23] <vgambit> I've been researching this problem and trying to fix it for about 2 hours and found that my bios doesn't support the hard drive (160 gb)
[05:23] <FelixTheCat> _PeteParker_: One other thing to try, 'pci=assign-busses'. That's a stab in the dark, though. That worked for me when trying to get a PC card working.
[05:23] <badfish> Macrosoft: linux =/= horseshoes
[05:23] <ubuntunub> !permissions
[05:23] <ianq> vocx: looks like the dvd drive doesn't show up in the bios
[05:23] <badfish> Macrosoft: not calling you out, just trying to learn linux and filesystems etc
[05:24] <vgambit> I just wanted to know if there was some way to get the mbr or whatever to work properly without having to destroy my windows partition
[05:24] <swilky> Hello, I am trying building a ramdisk file system with busybox. but i want to include nano insted of vi .... is it possable to automaticly copy the libs needed to a folder ??
[05:24] <vocx> ianq, seems a job for the lawyers, sue the store
[05:24] <FAJALOU> hi how can i find out what my network key is?
[05:25] <_PeteParker_> IntuitiveNipple:  i thinking that this is the problem, but i'm not sure, because it is just when i reboot
[05:25] <badfish> what's the difference between fat32 and vfat? google isn't cooperating
[05:25] <ianq> vcox: hmmm, the drive DOES have power though
[05:25] <_PeteParker_> FelixTheCat:  thanks the advice, i haven't tried that yet
[05:26] <vocx> mytears, http://paste.ubuntu.com/48477/
[05:26] <ianq> vcox: it opens and closes just fine, but i guess the power cord is separate from the uhm, motherboard<----> drive connection?
[05:26] <_PeteParker_> badfish: i think that there is no difference, vfat is a generic for fat file systems
[05:26] <vocx> ianq, yep, have you tested the drive in another computer, whether windows or linux?
[05:27] <ianq> vocx: i don't have another one, so no
[05:27] <FAJALOU> hi i have a d-link network card i am trying to run from ubuntu, and it isn't accepting my network key??
[05:27] <_PeteParker_> badfish: the fatsize is set when you create the filesystem, but for linux it's all the same think
[05:27] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> ok, wish me luck everyone, i have to shutdown the main system and reboot ubuntu the old-fashioned way ;;
[05:28] <IntuitiveNipple> _PeteParker_: I'd suggest posting to the Hardware & Laptops forum with the output of lspci -nn and a copy of /var/log/dmesg - let people look at the configuration and think about it
[05:28] <FelixTheCat> _PeteParker_: Does this page help any? - http://hack.mypclinuxos.com/index.php?topic=400.0
[05:28] <_PeteParker_> badfish: are you trying to create a fs?
[05:28] <ubuntunub> god
[05:28] <ubuntunub> linux is so complicated
[05:28] <vocx> ianq, get somebody to test it before calling the store. Also, one trick you could try is to reset the BIOS memory to factory default. It would wipe the clock, but it may try to autodetect every hardware again.
 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vfat#FAT32_.28VFAT.29
 seems like wiki says fat32==vfat
 one and the same?
 It's a secret to everybody.
[05:28] <FloodBot2> badfish: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:28] <ubuntunub> and geeks wonder why it's unpopular among commonfolk
[05:28] <badfish> i'm not flooding you silly shit
[05:28] <badfish> i go somewhere else for advice
[05:28] <badfish> dumbass bot
[05:28] <_PeteParker_> IntuitiveNipple: it's a good ideia, thanks
[05:28] <formode> Hello, I am trying to figure out how to pull an Image out of a PSP "Pft" theme on linux, anyone have any ideas?
[05:28] <FAJALOU> hi i have a d-link network card i am trying to run from ubuntu, and it isn't accepting my network key??
[05:28] <_PeteParker_> FelixTheCat: let me check it
 yes
 fat32=vfat
 i think vfat also supports/reads-writes fat16
 must be russian for fat32
 wait no, there is a seperate kernel module for that
[05:29] <FloodBot2> badfish: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[05:29] <vocx> !ops
[05:29] <badfish> fuck. you. floodbot
[05:29] <badfish> fuck. you. floodbot2
[05:29] <ubuntunub> when i try to run an application it says "Run it as root"
[05:29] <formode> Badfish: paste.ubuntu.com
[05:29] <ubuntunub> can i fix this with a sudo command somehow or do i have to reinstall the application with fixed permissions?
[05:30] <badfish> ubuntunub: put $ sudo command
[05:30] <formode> Hello, I am trying to figure out how to pull an Image out of a PSP "Pft" theme on linux, anyone have any ideas?
[05:30] <Macrosoft> Flannel: thanks
[05:31] <vipaca> Any ideas about how to access samba mounts from command line i.e.
[05:31] <jong> vipaca: yes, i do
[05:31] <jong> vipaca: you could use smbmount... eg. smbmount //<name of computer>/Share
[05:32] <jong> vipaca: and ofcourse you need to append a mount point
[05:32] <jong> vipaca: or the other alternative is to use smbclient
[05:32] <myles7897>  When ever I type my mouse wheel scrolls, so if I'm on a web page, it will scroll to the top. I have tried it will two different mice.
[05:32] <vipaca> jong: I would like to mount to the file system
[05:33] <vipaca> jong: So that I can switch as usual
[05:33] <duiidh> huyz...
[05:33] <vipaca> so this looks to do the trick
[05:33] <jong> vipaca: you do sth like: mkdir lalala; smbmount //mysmbmountdevice/share lalala
[05:33] <formode> Hello, I am trying to figure out how to pull an Image out of a PSP "Pft" theme on linux, anyone have any ideas?
[05:33] <jong> vipaca: then you can 'cd lalala' and you have access to the files
[05:34] <FAJALOU> can anyone help me with gnome-network manager?  i am trying to connect to an encrypted wifi, and right now it says that it is 'preparing device wlan0 for the wireless network "<Network>"  how long should it stay on this before it connects?
[05:34] <jong> vipaca: it works?
[05:34] <pibe86> hello again ;) i am downloading lastest updates so if i suspend my laptop will updates stop?
[05:34] <favro> myles7897: your mouse prob isn't configured right in xorg.conf
[05:34] <Macrosoft> pibe86: yes
[05:34] <almostdvs> i can't get sound from flash.  neither flashplugin-nonfree or flashplugin-nonfreebeta work
[05:34] <myles7897> favro, how would I go about reconfiging?
[05:35] <Macrosoft> pibe86: if you go into stanby or suspend, donwloads and all other activity will stop
[05:35] <jong> almostdvs: sounds familiar, neither do I :)
[05:35] <favro> myles7897: if you haven't done anything special for the vid card then in terminal   sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[05:35] <Macrosoft> pibe86: it is okay to lock the screen though
[05:36] <FelixTheCat> jong: vipaca may have to use cifs instead. 'mount -t cifs //remotecomputer/share /mnt/point'
[05:36] <IntuitiveNipple> almostdvs: Is some other application using sound at the same time?
[05:36] <myles7897> favro, is that it? cause its not fixed. :)
[05:37] <jong> FelixTheCat: true, that's the new FS
[05:37] <vocx> myles7897, I'll post new code wait a second
[05:37] <hml> way OT: for a us citizen to travel abroad, what documentation do i need? (or rather where can i look this up; google searches returns result of ppl leaving the us permenantely; i just want to travel)
[05:37] <myles7897> ok vocx
[05:37] <almostdvs> no. and other applications have sound.  i think i've been asked that before :P
[05:37] <favro> myles7897: did you select diff options for the mouse?
[05:37] <pibe86> Macrosoft: so i am going to leave for an hour so is locking the screen the best way to make uodates while i am away?
[05:37] <vocx> myles7897, he he... not you
[05:37] <Macrosoft> pibe86: yeah
[05:37] <vipaca> FelixTheCat Im actually get an error I hope I dont violate flood its only one line
[05:37] <myles7897> hml: passport would be good, but I think that might be off topic
[05:38] <FelixTheCat> jong: It stinks when you have issues with UID or GID mismatches, though. I like using sshfs better ... but that's not the OP's question. ;)
[05:38] <jong> hml: you need a visa for the country you'd go to
[05:38] <vipaca> mount error 13 = Permission denied
[05:38] <vipaca> Refer to the mount.cifs(8) manual page (e.g.man mount.cifs)
[05:38] <vocx> mytears, post your code again
[05:38] <myles7897> favro, all it did was say it created a backup
[05:38] <FelixTheCat> vipaca: What is the entire command you are using?
[05:38] <ianq> hml: where are you planning on going?
[05:38] <hml> ianq: china
[05:38] <jong> FelixTheCat: hopelessly overcomplicated imho
[05:38]  * Orian1701 waves hi.
[05:39] <hml> what should i be googling for? i feel this has to be well documented somewhere on the internet
[05:39] <favro> myles7897: you can manually edit xorg.conf and add options for the mouse - is it usb or a touchpad or?
[05:39] <FelixTheCat> jong: Can be, but it's beautiful when it is set up.
[05:39] <myles7897> usb
[05:39] <vocx> mytears, Texas
[05:39] <pibe86> Macrosoft: thanks
[05:39] <vipaca> FilexTheCat: sudo smbmount //server/share /mnt
[05:39] <jong> hml : you need to apply for a tourist visa very often
[05:39] <ianq> hml: http://www.china-embassy.org/eng/hzqz/zgqz/t84246.htm check the credibility of the information though
[05:39] <hml> wait; if i'm going to HK, i don't need this?
[05:39] <ushimitsudoki> hml: travel.state.gov and please stop the off-topic
[05:40] <myles7897> favro, usb
[05:40] <FelixTheCat> vipaca: You may have to add the user and password with the mount command. You may also need to use cifs instead. Hold one...
[05:40] <favro> myles7897: I'll paste what I use - you can open the file with admin rights using the command   gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:40] <vipaca> yeah I was about to say I need an AD credential for the mount
[05:40] <legend2440> hml: http://gochina.about.com/od/tripplanning/a/Pass_and_Visa.htm
[05:41] <IntuitiveNipple> hml: U.S. Citizens visiting Hong Kong for not more than three months/90 days are not required to obtain visas. They must have a U.S. passport valid for at least six months and evidence of adequate funds for their stay and onward transportation

[05:42] <Orian1701> I have kinda a weird question for everyone/anyone.  I'm running ubuntu on a tablet pc.  I would like to make a button that would exicute the same functionality as alt tab.  Aka it would input alt+tab and act as if that key combo was held untill there was a click.  Anyone got any clues how i might go about this?  I am a linux noob :P
[05:42] <IntuitiveNipple> A little side-relief after several hours support is perfectly acceptable
[05:42] <favro> myles7897: http://paste.ubuntu.com/48484/
[05:42] <jong> you know what I don't understand about linux: the fact that every config file has a different format, every program has different input, output and format of commandline options, for everything you want to do there are about 5 options, each of them doing sth right and sth wrong and the whole thing is written in about a dozen different languages, most of which are not very flexible nor abstractable... what happened with the UNIX philosophy 'Keep it 
[05:43] <hml> jong: yeah; we should just adopt lisp sexps for everything
[05:43] <FAJALOU1> how can i figure out what my encryption is on my wifi network from ubuntu?
[05:43] <IntuitiveNipple> jong: be glad they aren't all overblown XM L !
[05:43] <Malformation> lol Jong
[05:43] <abhijeet> Hey does anyone know a good alternative to CCleaner...Something that removes temp files from your computer
[05:43] <jong> hml: I'd agree with a Lisp like solution, or rather MOP Lisp
[05:43] <favro> myles7897: add that in the appropriate section then you save the file and logout/in
[05:43] <jong> IntuitiveNipple: well, XML is so thin, I'd say Unicode is more complicated
[05:44] <myles7897> favro, ok. thanks.
[05:44] <Malformation> IntuitiveNippl
[05:44] <Malformation> lmao
[05:44] <favro> np
[05:44] <FAJALOU1> how can i figure out what my encryption is on my wifi network from ubuntu?
[05:44] <FelixTheCat> vipaca: mount -t cifs //remote/share /mnt/local -ouser=username,password=password
[05:44] <IntuitiveNipple> FAJALOU: check on the Wifi router
[05:45] <FAJALOU1> IntuitiveNipple:  i would love too,,, but it am currently locked out of it ...
[05:45] <FelixTheCat> vipaca: You can also add 'domain=domain' on the end of the options if the share requires you to have it.
[05:45] <ianq> FAJALOU1: why
[05:45] <IntuitiveNipple> FAJALOU: usually, network-manager applet will prompt with the type of encryption in use
[05:45] <vipaca> FelixTheCat I was definatley not expecting the comma
[05:45] <P041NX> FAJALOU1:normaly, there is a readonly web interface to the router...
[05:45] <FAJALOU1> the problem i am having is that on one computer it is working fine, but when i go to a different ubuntu computer the encryption isn't working.
[05:46] <FAJALOU1> so i am looking for the pw to get onto it primarily...
[05:46] <IntuitiveNipple> FAJALOU: does the Wifi device driver support the type of encryption?
[05:46] <FelixTheCat> vipaca: Necessary to separate the options. Just be sure there is no space after the comma(s)
[05:46] <FAJALOU1> and i have it in front of me, but when i plug it in it doesn't work.
[05:46] <P041NX> FAJALOU1:so a network config problem?
[05:46] <FAJALOU1> ndiswrapper.
[05:46] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> ok, so it didn't work ;;
[05:46] <FAJALOU1> P041NX: i am connected on one computer, not on another...
[05:46] <IntuitiveNipple> FAJALOU: on the connected PC, you can find out using "iwconfig"
[05:46] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> afk to smoke, then we'll talk more :)
[05:46] <jong> vipaca: the -o... starts the option line, everything after that needs to fit in one non-spaced 'word'
[05:46] <vipaca> FelixTheCat: Is it using any security when sending the pass?
[05:47] <FelixTheCat> vipaca: Very good question - I don't personally don't know. Let me find out...
[05:47] <FAJALOU1> IntuitiveNipple: in iwconfig i just see mode:managed nothing about the actual encryption
[05:47] <P041NX> FAJALOU1: router isn't blocking in pi based, right?
[05:47] <vipaca> Im in! Thank you guys very much you have restored my faith to this usually useless channel
[05:48] <sarthor> HI, my laptop was dual boot, Ubuntu+XP, due to virus i deleted my ntfs drives, where XP was installed, now i want to install Xp again, but after booting from XP cd the screen get blank/black, how can i install xp now??
[05:48] <IntuitiveNipple> FAJALOU: try " sudo iwconfig wlan0" it will report the current key, which you can use on the other PC

[05:49] <FelixTheCat> vipaca: I don't find anything in a cursory check in the man page. If you are still interested, we can dig further.
[05:49] <Malformation> sarthor, you should just use a disk drive recovery
[05:49] <IntuitiveNipple> FAJALOU: the key is created from the password/passphrase

[05:51] <atomic_> This is a general linux question and not specifically to ubuntu. How can I open a firefox with a user on a different install on my same machine? I would like to get to my photo bucket site but I have a different email than I had when I signed up and a different install of ubuntu. I know I could just boot back into that install of ubuntu but that's last resort. :)
[05:51] <vgambit> I just installed the latest version of ubuntu on a second partition on my laptop, so I can dual boot it with windows xp, but I get error 18 when I turn on the pc
[05:51] <ciarandoherty> haha yeah, but I'm gonna work my ass off
[05:51] <vgambit> I've been researching this problem and trying to fix it for about 2 hours and found that my bios doesn't support the hard drive (160 gb)
[05:51] <jong> arang: odd, wish I could help you
[05:51] <vgambit> I just wanted to know if there was some way to get the mbr or whatever to work properly without having to destroy my windows partition
[05:51] <IntuitiveNipple> ciarandoherty: don't wear it out :D
[05:52] <FAJALOU1> vgambit:  there is a think called super grub disk
[05:52] <Debolaz> FelixTheCat: Most notably that it doesn't have to be an .iso :)
[05:52] <FAJALOU1> it can restore your mbf

[05:52] <Debolaz> FelixTheCat: And since it appears like a real cd device, applications like wine will pick it up automatically.
[05:52] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> do i have a conflict or something? when i use ndiswrapper is the bcm43 or w/e supposed to show up in the "Hardware Drivers" menu?
[05:53] <IntuitiveNipple> FAJALOU: navigate to /system/networking/connections/ and check the network has an entry there
[05:53] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> and, it's a 4306 chipset apparently
[05:53] <jong> arang: well, until you find the solution: man 1 find  :)
[05:53] <Orian1701> can anyone help me figure out how to make a shortcut or something that will allow me to input a keyboard combo via an icon/button?
[05:53] <arang> jong: i'm sorry i didnt understand
[05:53] <vocx> mytears, ^^
[05:53] <IntuitiveNipple> FAJALOU1: then, if you have it, Applications > Accessories > Passwords and Encryption Keys
[05:53] <FAJALOU1> IntuitiveNipple:  yes there are connections; i can connect to an unsecured connection in my city, but i can't get on it...
[05:54] <jong> arang: read the manual page for 'find' "man 1 find" as a command
[05:54] <IntuitiveNipple> FAJALOU1: and go to the Passwords tab and look for the network entry
[05:54] <atomic_> Orian1701: Try the program keytouch

[05:55] <vgambit> as far as I know, the MBR is fine already

[05:56] <IntuitiveNipple> FAJALOU1: That's where the keys are stored. If you're expecting a passphrase/password you'll need to run that key through a reverse algorithm - maybe find one via Google

[06:03] <P041NX> turtles1: pstree |grep firefox
[06:03] <IntuitiveNipple> FAJALOU1: oh yeah, they are different here too. I'd use the one from seahorse since network-manager shows that one in the prompt box if the "show password" checkbox is ticked
[06:03] <vocx> sarthor_, just install grub to make sure you can get access to linux in case you want to backup your files, since ultimately formating maybe the only solution. But before that, you mean the Win XP CD doesn't boot? It says "press any key to boot from the CD".
[06:03] <FAJALOU1> vgambit:  go into your live cd, mount your linux installation and then type in 'sudo touch <pathtoHdd>/forcefsck
[06:03] <turtles1> P041NX:  thanks, I'll take a look
[06:03] <IntuitiveNipple> usser: You might want to include "uvcvideo" in that list since it is known to be broken

[06:04] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> in winxp, i can get about 6 different wireless networks in the area
[06:05] <vocx> Yekyaa[Ubuntu], did every step? "iwconfig"
[06:05] <FluxD> Yekyaa[Ubuntu], yea
[06:05] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> yar, iwconfig, it's there
[06:05] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> wb, fluxd
[06:05] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> it sees the card
[06:05] <ernestoz> hi guys
[06:05] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> here's my problem, i think.  Hardware Drivers show bc43 or bcm43 as "In use" and Hardware Present
[06:05] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> does ndiswrapper put that there?
[06:05] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> or do i have a conflicting driver or something?
[06:06] <venger> Orian1701, xsend, xautomation, xmacro?
[06:06] <vgambit> FAJALOU1, I'm starting up ubuntu live now, but I just tried booting into the installed linux using super grub disc and that didn't work
[06:06] <vgambit> it did let me boot into windows, though
[06:06] <vocx> Yekyaa[Ubuntu], well, not always the latest drivers work, that's why I told you to try several. You should "rmmod bcm43" before using ndiswrapper, otherwise they conflict, check with "lsmod"
[06:06] <PhiAlpha> NEED HELP WITH BROWSING A WINDOWS NETWORK...samba not the issue.  Someone help me!!!!

[06:06] <Nix3r>  how to show ''downloaded' tab in ktorrent?
[06:06] <FluxD> Yekyaa[Ubuntu], you are supposed to blacklist the other drivers so no that shouldnt be there
[06:06] <vocx> !CAPS | PhiAlpha
[06:06] <FAJALOU1> vgambit:  sounds like your linux part is corrupted
[06:06] <Orian1701> venger:  i donno :D im asking u?  :P  Let me browse those suggestions
[06:07] <armornick> Daps, you can't, use sudo to execute commands as root
[06:07] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> so, i should go back in and disable it's use then and from there, what do i do?
[06:07] <Daps> ok
[06:07] <FAJALOU1> IntuitiveNipple: it still connects to the cities wifi (which isn't working for me, different story/ different time) and won't connect to my wifi
[06:07] <Daps> thanks
[06:07] <P041NX> PhiAlpha: and you'll need to supply bit more infotoo...
[06:07] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> also, for some reason, "Enable wireless" has only been open to me once
[06:07] <vgambit> FAJALOU1, hm. I dunno how that happened, considering all I did was install it
[06:07] <armornick> Daps, also, if you wish to use graphical applications as root, use gksudo
[06:08] <Daps> it says i am not the sudoer file... what??
[06:08] <vocx> mytears, good luck
[06:08] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> and when i do iwlist wlan0 scanning or iwlist wlan0 scan, wlan0 gets no Scan results, but WinXP can pull 6 wireless networks in the area usually, medium to low connection, but still
[06:08] <ernestoz> hey guys i am trying to mount a ntfs partition in ubuntu 8.04 and i get error that say Operation not supported Mount because NTFS marked to be in use
[06:08] <FAJALOU1> vgambit:  i would try reinstalling it then; b/c it's a possibility that something just went a little wrong
[06:08] <Daps> ok gksudo it is
[06:09] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> also, i saw this link on Ubuntu, but 4306 is guaranteed NOT to work Link: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=880218

[06:09] <brandonmpace> armornick: actually you can log in as root if you want to, it´s just not recommended
[06:09] <IntuitiveNipple> FAJALOU1: maybe the WiFi router has a MAC address white-list and the failing PC isn't in the list?
[06:09] <turtles1> P041NX:  which is /sbin/init I think
[06:09] <armornick> brandonmpace, which is why I don't know how ;)

[06:10] <P041NX> turtles1:thats the mother of all system. not what you're looking for.
[06:10] <Daps> what now?
[06:10] <FAJALOU1> IntuitiveNipple:  all i am thinking is that it shouldn't be this hard; i got on easily without encryption to another network, and on another computer i got on easily...
[06:10] <brandonmpace> Daps: what program are you trying to use?
[06:10] <ArtVandalae> Hi all, I want to open a GUI program, as another user on the same machine. I've logged in as the user in a terminal, but when I try to run the program I get "cannot open display". I've tried export DISPLAY=:0, DISPLAY=:1, etc. But it says it cannot find it. How can I find out what position my X server is running on?
[06:10] <Daps> i am trying to delete a user i added
[06:11] <singleman6261984> userdel name
[06:11] <turtles1> P041NX:  I think this started after I followed the ubuntu wiki to setup my g15 keyboard. do you think maybe some hotkey is set wrong and is triggering?
[06:11] <P041NX> turtles1: i know it's a bit dissapointing, but temporary changing the /usr/bin/firefox link to something else to show what is calling it might help
[06:11] <brandonmpace> Daps: as singleman said, sudo userdel NAME
[06:11] <singleman6261984> gentoo for all
[06:11] <PhiAlpha> Okay...I try to browse another computer that is running Windows Vista on my home network.  I can see the computer in the file browser window but when I double click it I see none of the shared files from the computer.  When trying to view the shares on the ubuntu machine from Vista it works perfectly.  Point is...I see the computers from both computers...but only the files on the Ubuntu when browsing from Windows; not the other way aroun
[06:12] <turtles1> P041NX:  how do you mean? rename /usr/bin/firefox to /usr/bin/firefox.old or something?
[06:12] <vgambit> FAJALOU1, I tried typing sudo touch <pathtoHdd>/forcefsck and that didn't seem to do anything
[06:12] <vgambit> I typed sudo touch hda /forcefsck
[06:12] <Daps> zidaps is not in the sudoers file.  This incident will be reported.
[06:12] <jamus> hye guy's - this may seem like a stupid question but - i set up my supeuser\root pass and it havent been a while since i loged in ubu -- i forgot it , is there any way to override\retrieve it ?
[06:12] <hosstest> I have an NVIDIA 8800 gpu, should I use the third party drivers that Ubuntu has or download them from NVIDIA's website?
[06:12] <P041NX> turtles1:hang on there, i'll give you some code to do it
[06:12] <Nix3r> how to show '' downloaded'' tab in ktorrent ?
[06:12] <mn_> PhiAlpha:  Windows can't do the ext* file systems
[06:12] <turtles1> P041NX:  thank you :)
[06:12] <Daps> thats what i get when i put userdel or sudo userdel
[06:12] <FAJALOU1> vgambit:  try restarting now
[06:13] <brandonmpace> Daps: what version of ubuntu do you have?
[06:13] <Daps> 8.0
[06:13] <Nallep>  I'm trying to find a way to make my laptops cdrom eject button run a script, is there any ways to do that? (I'm trying to get it to try to unmount, and if it did, then eject, otherwise don't eject)
[06:13] <PhiAlpha> mn_: I have no idea what that means but is that the reason I can not browse files on a windows machine through ubuntu?  If so...is there a fix?
[06:13] <IntuitiveNipple> FAJALOU1: I tend to agree with you, but it is hard to remotely diagnose such issues. I'd be focusing on what the logs are showing (/var/log/syslog, /var/log/kern.log, etc.)
[06:13] <SuperQ> Daps: 8.04 (hint: it's a date YEAR.MONTH)
[06:13] <FAJALOU1> IntuitiveNipple:  on which computer?
[06:13] <badfish> does anyone know formode?
[06:13] <jamus> im looking for serious consult here i really to wanna lose my stuff over this bull (to have to reboot and all)
[06:13] <Daps> 8.04.1
[06:14] <Nix3r> how to show '' downloaded'' tab in ktorrent ?
[06:14] <FAJALOU1> IntuitiveNipple:  let me try to turn sys security off on the router one sec.
[06:14] <SuperQ> Daps: Yup, that's the latest LTS stable
[06:14] <IntuitiveNipple> FAJALOU1: The one that has the problems
[06:14] <airtonix> PhiAlpha, the fix is : harrasing microsoft to support opensource filesystems properly
[06:14] <mn_> PhiAlpha:  I thought you meant you couldn't browse Ubuntu on Windows.  You should be able to browse Windows on Ubuntu.
[06:14] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> ok, i think i finally found one that can pick up where i left off
[06:14] <vgambit> FAJALOU1, I tried mounting the windows partition after typing the touch command, but it would not mount
[06:14] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> gonna try again
[06:14] <Daps> ok, so how can i delete the user? lol
[06:14] <IntuitiveNipple> FAJALOU1: As you've got two PCs and one works you can compare logs of the same events and look for differences, and figure out why
[06:14] <vgambit> and after restarting, I still get error 18
[06:14] <badfish> nigga tried to virus me
[06:14] <Daps> without getting zidaps is not in the sudoers file.  This incident will be reported.
[06:15] <the_ricka> Hi, all, simple question (I hope).  How do you disable cd autorun/autoplay?  It used to be under the media tab of System->Preferences->Removable Drives and media
[06:15] <IntuitiveNipple> Daps: Only a user with sudoers permissions can do it
[06:15] <the_ricka> but I'm running 8.04 and I don't see it there
[06:15] <Flannel> Daps: You're trying to remove the first user from the second users account?
[06:15] <mn_> PhiAlpha:  Microsoft uses NTFS and FAT32 filesystems.  Ubuntu supports these, but works better with ext* filesystems.  Windows doesn't support ext* filesystems which is probably what your Ubuntu is installed in.
[06:15] <jamus> badfish: that is impossible
[06:15] <PhiAlpha> mn_ and airtonix: I can browse ubuntu no problem and it works great.  Through my ubuntu computer I can see my windows vista box perfectly fine.  The vista box has plenty of shares that my macbook and other windows can stream from.  Through the ubuntu however...when I double click to open the computer (which ubuntu see's!) I just get an empty window.  No amount of refreshing fixes the problem either
[06:15] <Daps> the second user.. i am the first user
[06:15] <badfish> jamus: not impossible just unlikely
[06:16] <brandonmpace> Daps: well what you can do is go to the system > Admin > users/groups and sometwhere in there there is a check box that says allow local root login
[06:16] <brandonmpace> Daps: or something like that
[06:16] <legend2440> Daps: what happens if you try to remove user using   system>administration>users and groups
[06:16] <Daps> but i gave the second user admin status and used the same password as my account
[06:16] <Flannel> badfish: Again, please watch your language.
[06:16] <arang> i got vmware workstation 6.0.4 64 bits running under ubuntu linux 8.0.4.1 64 bits and i wanna use pulseaudio (padsp) but when i use it i get an LD_PRELOAD error anyone could help me please??
[06:16] <jamus> badfish: linux has lame attempts of viruse but its really no big deal
[06:16] <IntuitiveNipple> the_ricka: Nautilus, Edit > Preferences, Media tab
[06:16] <badfish> i believe it
[06:16] <badfish> it was something about a psp wallpaper
[06:16] <mn_> PhiAlpha:  Sounds like an odd problem.  I have no idea how to fix it.
[06:16] <PhiAlpha> There has to be a workaround...there is no way people who have ubuntu can not browse windows network folders...it's impossible...especially since I can see the computer
[06:16] <jamus> badfish: its root attacks u shoud be worried about
[06:16] <Flannel> Daps: passwords don't matter (they don't have to be the same).  You're the first user, are you in the admin group? (type 'groups')
[06:17] <jamus> badfish: and such
[06:17] <PhiAlpha> Anyone?
[06:17] <Daps> well i get to this locked button.. and when i click it.. it says cannot be autheniticated
[06:17] <badfish> i understaned
[06:17] <badfish> how do i identify a root attack?
[06:17] <Daps> i don't think i am in admin group
[06:17] <the_ricka> IntuitiveNipple: Thank you so much! I knew it had to be fairly simple...why they had to go and move it around on me.
[06:17] <Flannel> Daps: type 'groups' and see
[06:17] <IntuitiveNipple> PhiAlpha: It sounds as if the Windows system isn't allowing guests to have read permissions on the share root
[06:17] <brandonmpace> Daps: wow something is messed up lol, yea type groups
[06:17] <badfish> does a root attack want me to go to vista and see what happens?
[06:18] <Daps> where?
[06:18] <IntuitiveNipple> the_ricka: Yeah, I spent 10 minutes trying to find where they'd moved it!
[06:18] <Flannel> Daps: in a terminal
[06:18] <Daps> zidaps adm dialout cdrom floppy audio dip video plugdev fuse lpadmin
[06:18] <Flannel> badfish: This channel is for ubuntu support, please keep it on topic.
[06:18] <gnutoit2> what is a good terminal app with color ansi support?
[06:18] <PhiAlpha> IntuitiveNipple: Would that effect all computers on the network or just this Ubuntu box.  All other computers I have see and can browse/open files on that box just fine
[06:18] <Daps> thats what i get back when i type groups
[06:18] <IntuitiveNipple> PhiAlpha: Hmm, are all other PCs Ubuntu, or Windows?
[06:18] <Flannel> Daps: Alright, what are you two usernames?
[06:18] <FAJALOU1> IntuitiveNipple:  no luck
[06:19] <Daps> Zidaps is me.. Boss is the Admin name
[06:19] <badfish> Flannel: if you read the context, you'll see that I am on topic; please know what you're talking about
[06:19] <PhiAlpha> IntuitiveNipple: 2 others are windows, one mac.  The three see the vista box just fine and can stream/open shares fine
[06:19] <turtles1> On my  ubuntu 8.04 install something keeps opening new firefox windows every few minutes or so. is there a log I can look at to see what's triggering firefox to open?
[06:19] <IntuitiveNipple> PhiAlpha: also, is the Ubuntu PC a member of the same SMB domain as the others?
[06:19] <singleman6261984> how do you write a grub entry for ubuntu
[06:19] <Flannel> Daps: So, you're trying to remove which one?
[06:19] <badfish> how many people in this room are bots?
[06:19] <singleman6261984> or is that an automated process
[06:19] <badfish> outta curiousity?
[06:19] <Daps> Boss
[06:19] <airtonix> PhiAlpha, if your being asked for login password and username when trying to access you windows shares..then your not in guest mode
[06:19] <PhiAlpha> IntuitiveNipple: This machine sees the box fine...when I open the window to browse it, no files show up
[06:19] <badfish> i've found 3 so far
[06:19] <Flannel> Daps: Alright, first you need to give zidaps permission to sudo.  You can do this from the boss account
[06:19] <Flannel> badfish: Please stop.
[06:20] <PhiAlpha> airtonix: Not getting asked anything
[06:20] <IntuitiveNipple> FAJALOU1: is that with no encryption on the WiFi ?
[06:20] <Daps> how do i do that?
[06:20] <Flannel> Daps: log in with boss, and give administration power to zidaps
[06:20] <badfish> Flannel: please say something that will make me talk to you as something other than a bot
[06:20] <airtonix> PhiAlpha, and when you login to the same point from your mac? are you asked to login?
[06:20] <PhiAlpha> IntuitiveNipple: The ubuntu pc is a member of the same workgroup...I do not know how to set up domains and haven't needed to on any of the other computers
[06:20] <jamus> badfish: i guess setting a root\ superuser pass sould make it harder - thats what i did and forgot my pass unfortunatly :S
[06:20] <Daps> ok, brb
[06:20] <Flannel> badfish: Take bot reports to #ubuntu-ops, not here.
[06:20] <FAJALOU1> IntuitiveNipple:  i can't turn it off -.-
[06:20] <IntuitiveNipple> PhiAlpha: check the logs in /var/log/samba/ for clues
[06:20] <PhiAlpha> Airtonix: yes
[06:20] <FAJALOU1> but this is connected through the encryption
[06:20] <Flannel> jamus: No, setting a root password is a bad idea.
[06:20] <vgambit> FAJALOU1, I tried super grub disk again to see if I could boot into linux, and this time it gave a more verbose error 18: Selected cylinder exceeds maximum supported by BIOS
[06:21] <badfish> Flannel: that isn't what i said
[06:21] <natha1> is there a way to extend my taskbar to my second screen?
[06:21] <ushimitsudoki> !ot | badfish
[06:21] <Flannel> badfish: Stop talking about them here, take it elsewhere.
[06:21] <natha1> like ultramon for windows
[06:21] <airtonix> PhiAlpha, then i suggest restarting your ubuntu and try to login properly from ubuntu
[06:21] <IntuitiveNipple> FAJALOU1: maybe the kernel driver on the other PC can't support WPA/WPA2, and that is what the WiFi router is using
[06:21] <PhiAlpha> Intuitivenipple: I don't know how to check out the logs...what shoudl I look for?
[06:21] <FAJALOU1> IntuitiveNipple:  i plugged in another wifi usb card; connects right up
[06:21] <IMaverick> i have installed xp in vbox 2.0.2 in ubuntu host ... and also GuestAddition but still cant get in full screen mode in my laptop.... any solutions
[06:21] <ianq> anyone knows why it's been sitting at "GRUB loading, please wait..." for like 5 minutes? bad sign? nothing to worry about? safe to reboot?
[06:21] <IntuitiveNipple> FAJALOU1: sounds like the driver then... what is the device that is having problems?
[06:21] <turtles1> On my  ubuntu 8.04 install something keeps opening new firefox windows every few minutes or so. is there a log I can look at to see what's triggering firefox to open?
[06:21] <PhiAlpha> airtonix: When yous ay login from Ubuntu what do you mean?  How would I do that...sign in as ubuntu?  I am the only "admin" on this computer.  BTW...new to linux/ubuntu in general
[06:22] <FAJALOU1> D-Link Wifi cardnotebook;  using ndiswrapper
[06:22] <badfish> Flannel: who are you?
[06:22] <brandonmpace> vgambit: that usually means that your partition it´s trying to boot from is too far down the line
[06:22] <IntuitiveNipple> PhiAlpha: It's a case of using your eyes and looking for clues
[06:22] <FAJALOU1> trying to connect to it now
[06:22] <airtonix> PhiAlpha, becauase i am using 8.04 and my firs attempt to access a windows share required me to enter a username and password
[06:22] <badfish> ubottu: i knew you were a bot a year ago
[06:22] <jamus> Flannel:  well i guessed that by restricting acceses  u sould help such issues but its just commun sense and no tech knowhow
[06:22] <vgambit> alright brandonmpace
[06:22] <brandonmpace> vgambit: where is grub installed, if it is
[06:22] <vgambit> is there any way to boot from the first partition into the second partition?
[06:22] <PhiAlpha> okay
[06:22] <PhiAlpha> I will reboot and try
[06:22] <PhiAlpha> I hope to not see you guys in a few
[06:22] <PhiAlpha> ;)
[06:22] <vgambit> or put the MBR on the first partition instead of the second?
[06:22] <airtonix> PhiAlpha, what i mean by ubuntu is your ubuntu machine.
[06:22] <jamus> Flannel:  now that u point it it is a lame idea -- uups
[06:23] <Flannel> jamus: You can still fix it.  You have an account that can sudo, right?
[06:23] <PhiAlpha> airtonix: gotcha
[06:23] <brandonmpace> vgambit: put grub on the mbr and it should fix the problem, did it work before?
[06:23] <PhiAlpha> I am trying...not asking for anything
[06:23] <PhiAlpha> brb...I'll try again
[06:23] <airtonix> PhiAlpha, if you not getting a username/password prompt when your trying to access the windows machine then it means that your still in hte guest session...
[06:23] <jamus> Flannel:  yeap
[06:23] <Malformation> everyone using Ubuntu you should use chmod -r 777 /
[06:23] <Flannel> jamus: sudo passwd -l root
[06:23] <Malformation> at some point in their lives
[06:23] <FAJALOU1> IntuitiveNipple: Rangebooster N Notebook adapter:  DWA-642
[06:23] <Flannel> !danger | Malformation
[06:23] <Vezir> how do i select what sound daemon to use?
[06:23] <Vezir> i'm trying to run KDE4
[06:23] <vgambit> it never worked
[06:24] <gonzaloaf_laptop> hello, can you tell me why sometimes I cannot play any sound (mp3 files) on my system? I usually use amarok, but the problem persists with another players
[06:24] <vgambit> brandonmpace, I'm not sure how to install grub to the mbr
[06:24] <brandonmpace> do you have any data on the ubuntu partition that you really need to keep?
[06:24] <FAJALOU1> i can connect with a usb atheros card, not with the above one
[06:24] <vgambit> no, only the windows partition
[06:24] <IntuitiveNipple> Flannel: how about chmood -r 666 ? :p (read it *carefully*)
[06:24] <vgambit> I just installed ubuntu, and I have yet to actually boot into it
[06:24] <nogagplz> vgambit: grub-install /dev/hdx ?
[06:25] <vgambit> if I use super grub disc I can boot through that into windows
[06:25] <Flannel> IntuitiveNipple: still best not to do silly things like that.
[06:25] <vgambit> from the ubuntu live disc, I take it?
[06:25] <Malformation> !danger vgambit
[06:25] <nogagplz> not sure, haven't used it in a long while.
[06:25] <Malformation> awwww
[06:25] <cyban> chmod -r 777 dangerious? I think someones playing with the ubuntu bot :P
[06:25] <brandonmpace> vgambit: re install ubuntu and somewhere along the way you will see an advanced button or something like that i think. You just need to tell it to install grub to the mbr
[06:25] <Malformation> chmood
[06:25] <ianq> anyone knows why it's been sitting at "GRUB loading, please wait..." for like 5 minutes? bad sign? nothing to worry about? safe to reboot?
[06:26] <Orian1701> venger: im confused about how to get these programs workin... (me = linux noob)
[06:26] <Flannel> cyban: Please don't repeat that.
[06:26] <Malformation> wats that do
[06:26] <brandonmpace> vgambit: it will work i promise lol i learned that lesson
[06:26] <cyban> Flannel - do me a favor
[06:26] <vgambit> lol ok
[06:26] <jamus> Flannel:  it says pass changed but when invuked su it fails authentication
[06:26] <Malformation> chmod is a dangerous tool if u misuse it on ubuntu
[06:26] <cyban> Go to gnome-look.org install a few Themes
[06:26] <cyban> Even they require permission changes
[06:26] <Flannel> jamus: You locked your root account, so that's true.  Don't use su.
[06:27] <Flannel> cyban: I fail to see your point.  And this is offtopic.
[06:27] <brandonmpace> lol I wanna try that in a vm Flannel. so that I can see how bad it is. I forget what 777 does
[06:27] <Daps> Flannel: i am back on as Boss
[06:27] <Malformation> RWX
[06:27] <Malformation> read write and view i think
[06:27] <Malformation> for all users
[06:27] <ushimitsudoki> cyban: the person called for the chmod on root.  read the line and understand the problem
[06:27] <Flannel> Malformation: Do you have a support question? or are you just here to cause trouble?
[06:27] <P041NX> turtles1: pasted in pastebin.. U still there?
[06:27] <Malformation> so when it goes onto the root "sudo"
[06:27] <airtonix> cyban, any theme that requires you to change permisisions should be held with suspicion
[06:27] <cyban> Flannel - well telling people changing permissions is dangerious is kinda ridiculous
[06:27] <brandonmpace> Malformation: so you wouldn´t be able to log in
[06:27] <jamus> Flannel:  is there any way to get root acces in order to perform ops that need that ?
[06:28] <vgambit> brandonmpace will I have to manually set up the partitions, then?
[06:28] <Malformation> no flannel, im just discussing why it's a bad command
[06:28] <Malformation> yes brandon
[06:28] <vgambit> before I had done a guided/automatic setup by telling it to fill in the empty space
[06:28] <IntuitiveNipple> ushimitsudoki: BUT... there was no sudo so it would have failed
[06:28] <brandonmpace> you might have to vgambit
[06:28] <Flannel> jamus: You'd use sudo.  You shouldn't need anything else.
[06:28] <Flannel> IntuitiveNipple: no, it wouldn't have.
[06:28] <cyban> airtonix, Overglossed - have to chmod the theme to use the background because the way the instructions are wrote
[06:28] <brandonmpace> vgambit: that is usually best
[06:28] <IntuitiveNipple> Flannel: It did here
[06:28] <Orian1701> How can i make a macro in ubuntu?  that i could click on and exicute?
[06:28] <Malformation> i used the chmod with 777 when i got frustrated at the ubuntu sudo command
[06:28] <Malformation> i learnt my lesson.
[06:28] <ushimitsudoki> IntuitiveNipple: the type of person that would try that command would probably try sudo. it's dumb and the person should rightfully have been kicked. EOT on it for me
[06:28] <FAJALOU1> IntuitiveNipple:  i feel really stupid; i didn't lspci it so i installed ndiswrapper to run it; it prolly is atheros itself, so all i needed was madwifi -.-
[06:28] <Flannel> Daps: Alright, go to users and groups, and give your other account admin access
[06:28] <airtonix> cyban, since when does a wallpaper need to have its permissions changed to live in my home folder?
[06:29] <brandonmpace> lol @ Malformation
[06:29] <pan_> how do we check what version of nm-applet we have?
[06:29] <Malformation> lol @ myself
[06:29] <Malformation> xD
[06:29] <IntuitiveNipple> FAJALOU1: doh!!!
[06:29] <cyban> airtonix, try it ;) follow the instructions
[06:29] <ethana2> How do I install Sun Java in Ubuntu?  It looks like i have it now, but it's using open class libraries that aren't working right
[06:29] <Daps> i can't
[06:29] <ethana2> I want to use all sun code
[06:29] <jamus> Flannel:  i tryed to sudo aptitude upgrade and needed superuser account
[06:29] <Flannel> IntuitiveNipple: that's for different reasons.  -r vs -R, but even without sudo it'll screw up your homedir.
[06:29] <Daps> it won't let me click in the box
[06:29] <brandonmpace> I love linux, you learn stuff all the time
[06:29] <Flannel> jamus: Yes, you used sudo.
[06:29] <Prose> I'm totally flagablasterd, I just learned about ssh -X user@server!
[06:29] <pan_> yup
[06:29] <Malformation> funny how after i admit i used chmod, ushuimitsudoki starts saying whoever uses that is stupid
[06:29] <brandonmpace> lol
[06:29] <Flannel> Malformation: please stop.  Its offtopi
[06:29] <FAJALOU1> IntuitiveNipple:  ya... i took it out for now; b/c i am updating the system; but when i plug it back in i will lspci it, i feel really stupid, and then if i need to i will install madwifi...
[06:29] <Malformation> ok
[06:29] <IntuitiveNipple> pan_: dpkg-query -s 'network-manager-gnome'
[06:30] <FAJALOU1> b/c it didn't see it according to hardware drivers...
[06:30] <natha1> how do i get a bar that goes across two screens like ultramon in windows
[06:30] <IntuitiveNipple> FAJALOU1: I reckon you're short on sleep... it gets me that way too :)
[06:30] <FAJALOU1> DOH!  ya it's atheros!
[06:30] <FAJALOU1> ya a little; school and 5 honors/ap classes and all ;)
[06:31] <P041NX> ethana2: sun java needs env varable set... give me a minute, i'll dig out info
[06:31] <ushimitsudoki> Malformation: no. i said anyone who tried a command like what you typed would be stupid. and probably stupid enough to sudo it. which it sounds like you were. EOT on it from me. muted.
[06:31] <Winston_SmithVT> Whats a good place to learn about permissions?
[06:31] <ethana2> P041NX: many thanks, I was about to give up hope due to noise
[06:31] <Flannel> !permissions | Winston_SmithVT
[06:31] <FAJALOU1> IntuitiveNipple:  it doesn't show up in hardware drivers, isn't it supposed to?
[06:31] <Winston_SmithVT> Flannel: Thanks
[06:31] <Daps> so what can i do flannel? it won't let me administer the system
[06:31] <Malformation> what's EOT mean?
[06:31] <FAJALOU1> or is ndiswrapper's module for it canceling it out?
[06:31] <Flannel> Daps: As boss?
[06:31] <Omlette> Is this a good channel for Pidgin questions?
[06:31] <Daps> yes
[06:32] <jamus> Flannel:  it invokes dpkg and when i dp iit says dpkg: requested operation requires superuser privilege
[06:32] <Orian1701> Anyone know how to make a macro for ubuntu that i could execute via an icon?  I just want it to enter a simple keyboard shortcut.
[06:32] <IntuitiveNipple> FAJALOU1: At this point (6.30am and no sleep yet) I pass :)
[06:32] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> OMG
[06:32] <Omlette> Ok, I have a stupid Pidgin question. If I see a cell phone icon next to a buddy's icon, as well as a regular service - MSN, AIM - icon in the Buddy List, does that mean my buddy is signed on with their phone?
[06:32] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> OMG
[06:32] <Daps> i cannot click into the box that will give me that privelege
[06:32] <ushimitsudoki> Omlette: #pidgin is probably better
[06:32] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> FUCK YEAH
[06:32] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> pardon my french
[06:32] <Flannel> Daps: Try going to a terminal and doing this: sudo adduser zidaps admin
[06:32] <FAJALOU1> !language
[06:32] <Flannel> Yekyaa[Ubuntu]: Please don't do that again.
[06:32] <ethana2> We will not pardon your french.
[06:32] <FAJALOU1> IntuitiveNipple:  dang,  shouldn't it show up in hardware drivers?
[06:32] <Flannel> jamus: When you did "sudo aptitude upgrade"?
[06:33] <ZKAT8IT> firefox no longer launches, it remains in the system monitor but doesnt appear on screen and the only way i know to fix it is to restart, is there a way to fix it without restarting?
[06:33] <IntuitiveNipple> FAJALOU1: which "it" ?
[06:33] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> sorry about that
[06:33] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> i was just excited, i'm not running through vmware
[06:33] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> i'm live finally :)
[06:33] <IntuitiveNipple> ZKAT8IT: "killall firefox" will kill the process so you can start Firefox again
[06:33] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> i used this one: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx/Feisty_No-Fluff
[06:33] <gnutoit2> what is a good terminal app with color ansi support?
[06:33] <FAJALOU1> the d-link   Network controller: Atheros Communications INc.  AR5416 802.11abgn Wireless PCI adapter (rev 01) the one we are trying to get to work
[06:33] <Daps> it added Zidaps as an Admin
[06:33] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> in case anyone is having trouble with broadcom wireless
[06:34] <jamus> Flannel: just now i tried to fix bad kernel update 9nvidia card messed up bad)
[06:34] <FAJALOU1> !bcm
[06:34] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> my problem was the module=ssb  issue
[06:34] <airtonix> cyban, every instruction i see therer can be replaced with paths that are in your home folder
[06:34] <Flannel> Daps: So, now "groups zidaps" shows admin?
[06:34] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> that's why it wasn't working
[06:34]  * Orian1701 will give cookie for macro help. :D
[06:34] <ZKAT8IT> o_O umm.. apparently terminal fails to launch also
[06:34] <Daps> this is what shows up
[06:34] <Daps> zidaps adm dialout cdrom floppy audio dip video plugdev fuse lpadmin admin
[06:34] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> now, to restart really and start playing with my desktop, i finally got the nvidia driver installed successfully :)
[06:34] <IntuitiveNipple> FAJALOU1: have you seen this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=4140239&postcount=1
[06:34] <jamus> Flannel: i didnt log on for some while so i forgot my super hard and complex pass for root :S
[06:35] <Flannel> Daps: alright, now log out of boss, and back into zidaps, and you'll be able to use sudo (and remove boss)
[06:35] <ZKAT8IT> it launches but had a white screen then dimmed like its failing to recieve a signal
[06:35] <cyban> airtonix, ya you can install it a few ways - but if you follow those then you chmod, easiest way - I would be willing to bet 75% of the people who come here wont see directions like that and know to modify the instructions ;)
[06:35] <Daps> ok, brb
[06:35] <Flannel> jamus: You don't need to know your root password.  Just your user password.
[06:35] <airtonix> cyban, why follow those instructions when putting the various pieces in my home folders works and is safer
[06:35] <FAJALOU1> IntuitiveNipple:  this is the one i am looking at : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=348918&highlight=D-Link+DWA-642
[06:36] <FAJALOU1> a little outdated but,,, if madwifi can get it to work :D
[06:36] <FAJALOU1> b/c i haven't tried madwifi yet (as it is what you are supposed to use with atheros)
[06:36] <cyban> airtonix, what percentage of people who come here for help after installing something like that would know that to begin with?
[06:36] <Nix3r> how to show '' downloaded'' tab in ktorrent ? the tab that shows all the downloaded things.
[06:36] <IntuitiveNipple> FAJALOU1: whats the device id? (lspci -nn)
[06:36] <cyban> airtonix, and for that matter if you do already know that you likely have su unlocked anyway heh
[06:36] <airtonix> cyban, anyone whose not a headless chicken
[06:37] <jamus> Flannel: ok  i think i can figure it out using forums and stuff but it became an issue on its own -- can i retrieve my root pass any how?
[06:37] <FAJALOU1> IntuitiveNipple:  ummmm, two show up:  0280  and 168c:0023
[06:37] <IntuitiveNipple> jamus: You can reset it
[06:37] <gonzaloaf_laptop> hello, can you tell me why sometimes I cannot play any sound (mp3 files) on my system? I usually use amarok, but the problem persists with another players
[06:37] <brandonmpace> FAJALOU1: mad wifi will work with atheros on ubuntu 8.04 but first you might have to plug in with an ethernet cord and get all the latest updates, that´s what I had to do
[06:37] <Flannel> jamus: No.  passwords aren't recoverable, only resettable.  But again, you shouldn't have a root password.  Lock your root account.
[06:37] <Dap1> Flannel, i did sudo userdel boss, and got back "user boss does not exist.. yet its still in there
[06:37] <cyban> airtonix, I think you are reading the wrong channel - I see a lot of people come here for beginner questions
[06:37] <airtonix> cyban, see my point is if you knew...you wouldnt be anywhere near su or sudo when installing themes
[06:37] <FAJALOU1> brandonmpace:  i am using ndiswrapper right now with a different wifi card
[06:37] <Orian1701> gonzaloaf_laptop: they aren't DRM are they?
[06:37] <Flannel> Dap1: what makes you think its still there?
[06:37] <brandonmpace> FAJALOU1: ah ok
[06:38] <airtonix> cyban, or even chmod
[06:38] <FAJALOU1> gotta love the universal ndiswrapper :D
[06:38] <gonzaloaf_laptop> Orian1701, DRM ?
[06:38] <Dap1> the user switch icon by the internet connection icon, by the speaker volume icon top right
[06:38] <cyban> airtonix, if you knew then you know what to do and what not to - if you didnt then you follow instructions, it breaks, they come here and want it fixed - fastest way to fix it is chmod the theme folder
[06:38] <Dap1> boss is still there
[06:38] <Flannel> Dap1: Ah.  That may read the users available when you log in and cache that information or something.
[06:38] <Orian1701> gonzaloaf:  Are the files DRM protected (ie did you buy them online and they have a lisence on them?)

[06:39] <Dap1> so i should restart to clear the cache?
[06:39] <armornick> hey guys, is there a way to do a customized ubuntu install? (i.e. you choose which programs are installed)

[06:39] <IMaverick> how could i remove a package and all other package it depends on from comman line
[06:39] <jamus> Flannel,IntuitiveNipple: just becouse when i set up my old kernel i was asked for root acces at some point
[06:39] <brandonmpace> gonzaloaf_laptop: did you install the restricted extras package? I think it´s ubuntu restricted extras if you search for it
[06:40] <gonzaloaf_laptop> brandonmpace, If I log out and log in again
[06:40] <Flannel> jamus: You shouldn't ever have been asked for root access.  Ubuntu does not use the root login at all.
[06:40] <Luis> :-D
[06:40] <Luis> holas
[06:40] <gonzaloaf_laptop> brandonmpace, If I log out and log in again I will be able to play mp3 files again, it weird
[06:40] <ushimitsudoki> IMaverick: did you try "sudo apt-get remove <package>"? You may need to autoclean afterwards?
[06:40] <IntuitiveNipple> jamus: The usual way is to boot from a LiveCD/Flash stick and then change it without the file-system being live.
[06:40] <Flannel> Dap1: I'd imagine it would.  I'm not really sure how fast user switcher works.  But yes, it should.
[06:40] <jamus> Flannel,IntuitiveNipple: everything works fine but desktop effects and stuff like that (with wich i wanna show oof my ubu
[06:40] <vgambit> as far as partitioning, would this be alright? p1: windows, p2: ext3, p3: 1.5 gb linux swap

[06:43] <FAJALOU1> thx
[06:43] <gonzaloaf_laptop> brandonmpace, how can I solve it? I think the problem is sound mixing
[06:43] <gonzaloaf_laptop> HOw can I check if sound mixing is enabled?

[06:44] <Orian1701> ok everyone.  Thx for trying to help.  Its late.  A job for another day :D
[06:44] <gonzaloaf_laptop> brandonmpace, I use amarok, but try totem and rythmbox
[06:44]  * Orian1701 waves bye. :)
[06:45] <brandonmpace> gonzaloaf_laptop: so amarok can play mp3´s?
[06:45] <jamus> sarthor_:  yeap i mean total ubunt install on drive
[06:45] <FAJALOU1> brandonmpace:  yes
[06:45] <Daps> Flannel it worked :D
[06:45] <sarthor_> jamus.. when i apply the command "find /boot/grub/stage1" , its says "Error 15 File not found"
[06:45] <gonzaloaf_laptop> brandonmpace, yes... but not right now
[06:45] <Daps> thanks a bunch.... what was that command again though ?
[06:45] <airtonix> cyban, in those five steps...i didnt use terminal
[06:45] <Daps> sudo what..? to make me admin...
[06:45] <gonzaloaf_laptop> brandonmpace, even radios
[06:45] <jamus> sarthor_: if u wanna run it trough windows u have wubi version which has a win install file
[06:45] <airtonix> cyban, in those five steps...i didnt change permissions
[06:45] <Flannel> Daps: admin to do what?
[06:46] <Guest15523> holy cow...what's a DoS kiddie?
[06:46] <brandonmpace> gonzaloaf_laptop: go into synaptic under administration and uninstall totem and install totem-xine
[06:46] <Daps> to delete boss, remember i had to gain admin status
[06:46] <cyban> airtonix, you still cant use the Theme tho can you - it asks to enable the background etc etc and it wont do it
[06:46] <brandonmpace> gonzaloaf_laptop: you can only do this if you have medibuntu i think
[06:46] <sarthor_> jamus, right now i only want to boot my hardy only.
[06:46] <jamus> sarthor_: of course - its a live cd its not on ur system
[06:46] <Flannel> Daps: That wasn't to delete boss.  That was to add zidap to the admin group.  sudo adduser user admin
[06:46] <vgambit> alright, I'm not sure how to go about partitioning my hard drive
[06:46] <gonzaloaf_laptop> brandonmpace, what for?
[06:47] <FAJALOU1> vgambit:  use the gparted cd
[06:47] <FAJALOU1> it's much easier
[06:47] <Daps> thanks ya :D
[06:47] <vgambit> right now I have a windows partition and about half a drive worth of free space
[06:47] <Flannel> vgambit: That'll work fine, yes.  Although you might want a separate homedir.
[06:47] <cyban> But, chmod 777 quick fix - or spend half an hour explaining why, how to drag the desktop into the background and so on - telling people chmod or other common commands is dumb I stick to that point - and lots of commands can be dangerious if used wrong
[06:47] <brandonmpace> gonzaloaf_laptop: that makes totem able to play mp3´s using the xine backend.
[06:47] <vgambit> right now I need to know what exactly to do (as far as partition changing/creation) in order to boot from the first partition into either windows or linux
[06:48] <jamus> vgambit:  ushould give /root gb  gig and swap 2 gb
[06:48] <jayde_drag0n> is anyone here using Ibexd yet? i have a graphics issue i need assistance with
[06:48] <Flannel> cyban: Which is why we don't say stupid commands in this channel.
[06:48] <gonzaloaf_laptop> brandonmpace, what am I using now?
[06:48] <jayde_drag0n> er ibex
[06:48] <Flannel> jayde_drag0n: #ubuntu+1 for Intrepid support, thanks.
[06:48] <jamus> vgambit:  ushould give /root10  gb  gig and swap 2 gb*****
[06:48] <brandonmpace> gonzaloaf_laptop: I think gstreamer
[06:48] <gonzaloaf_laptop> brandonmpace, in amarok says xine engine
[06:48] <cyban> Flannel, come Admin my AIX and LIN servers without chmod, su, or sudo lol
[06:48] <jayde_drag0n> Flannel: thank you
[06:48] <vgambit> after reading a bunch of guides, the current plan is to slide the windows partition over a bit, create a new 100 mb partition before it, then create the linux/swap partitions after the windows partition
[06:48] <jamus> vgambit:  and it should work good
[06:49] <brandonmpace> vgambit: All you really need is one giant / partition and a /home partition of a decent size
[06:49] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> alright, now
[06:49] <FAJALOU1> brandonmpace:  it depends on how much RAM
[06:49] <vgambit> I also need to know how to install grub to that 100 mb partition using the ubuntu live cd installer
[06:49] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> new issue ^^  nvidia accelerated drivers were installed, i rebooted, and it took me to some old gnome main screen for detecting my display
[06:49] <cyban> If you have to be ignorent of your system to use it safely then your on the wrong OS IMO even if its a simplified version of Linux
[06:49] <vgambit> I'm guessing that 100 mb partition needs to be ext3, right?
[06:50] <FAJALOU1> what is the 100 mb for?
[06:50] <brandonmpace> gonzaloaf_laptop: and you said amarok plays mp3´s so why not use the xine backend on totem and try that?
[06:50] <Gnea> vgambit: what's the mountpoint?
[06:50] <vgambit> btw Flannel oneal is a spam bot
[06:50] <jamus> vgambit:  use gparted live cd and create 60 gb for win 10 gb for /root and 2gb for  swap and the rest as symbiotic drive between the 2
[06:50] <vgambit> Gnea, for what?
[06:50] <brandonmpace> FAJALOU1: I am aware of this I just spaced it off for the moment lol
[06:50] <Gnea> vgambit: the 100meg partition, of course
[06:50] <FAJALOU1> lol all good brandonmpace
[06:50] <vgambit> I didn't start doing anything yet
[06:50] <gonzaloaf_laptop> brandonmpace, ok
[06:50] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> cyban: were you referring to me?  i'm looking up info for it now.
[06:51] <vgambit> jamus I'd rather not do that; I just want to install linux while leaving my windows partition intact just in case
[06:51] <gonzaloaf_laptop> brandonmpace, installed
[06:51] <brandonmpace> vgambit: you don´t need a grub partition if you need only window and ubuntu. just install grub to the mbr
[06:51] <vgambit> I don't plan on sharing files between the two
[06:51] <cyban> no Yekyaa[Ubuntu]
[06:51] <vgambit> how?
[06:51] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> oh, ok ^^
[06:51] <Gnea> vgambit: uhm, grub doesn't need a partition, it resides in the MBR and reads off of the the / partition for configuration directives
[06:52] <vgambit> I'm confused now :/
[06:52] <jamus> vgambit:  win =ntfs 'ubu reifest or ext3 and symdrive ntfs to be mounted as /dos
[06:52] <Gnea> heh.
[06:52] <vgambit> let me explain how it was and how it is:
[06:52] <Gnea> vgambit: it really helps if you just install it already
[06:52] <gonzaloaf_laptop> brandonmpace, where should I run esd?
[06:52] <brandonmpace> Gnea:  if you have a /boot partition then it does have it´s own partition
[06:52] <vgambit> before it was one 128 gb partition with windows and the windows bootloader
[06:52] <Gnea> brandonmpace: that's true, although 100meg could cause some issues
[06:52] <jamus> vgambit: its a perfect solution it works great if u try --ur call im talking from experience
[06:53] <Gnea> vgambit: so the ntloader is on the MBR of the whole disk itself
[06:53] <vgambit> then I shrunk that partition down to 80 gb and told ubuntu to do as it pleased with the free space, which was actually 60ish gigs because the drive is much larger than 128 gb
[06:53] <brandonmpace> Gnea: that´s why I said not to bother and just make a /   and a /home and a /swap
[06:53] <vgambit> after installation, I got Error 18
[06:53] <Gnea> vgambit: why don't you just install wubi and not worry about it?
[06:53] <jamus> vgambit: when u mount it as /dos u avoid the image known as lost&fount which is a bummer
[06:53] <Gnea> !wubi
[06:53] <vgambit> right now it's just the shrunken windows partition and empty space again
[06:53] <ceil420> there is no /swap
[06:53] <ceil420> it's not a folder
[06:54] <Gnea> vgambit: well how much empty space have you allocated?
[06:54] <vgambit> I was going to use that but it wouldn't let me use all of the free space on the partition
[06:54] <brandonmpace> vgambit: you just need to find the option that installs grub to the mbr of the entire disk, which will be in one of the last steps of the installation, maybe even the one before the last
[06:54] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> woot, found the problem for monitor/video, yeah yeah :)
[06:54] <vgambit> right now I have 70 GB unallocated space
[06:54] <LimCore> how to run with nice -18 and real-time, but as regular user foo ?
[06:54] <Gnea> ofo course it wouldn't
[06:54] <Gnea> *of
[06:54] <vgambit> the error 18 problem stems from my bios not supporting a 160 gb hard drive
[06:55] <Gnea> o.O is it IDE or SATA?
[06:55] <vgambit> I'm trying to get around that somehow, because when I booted into the live CD, I was able to view both partitions fine
[06:55] <brandonmpace> ceil420: lol I´m sorry you know what I meant, I believe there used to be a long time ago, but I have only been around linux for 4 years
[06:55] <vgambit> IDE
[06:55] <vgambit> laptop
[06:55] <Gnea> which laptop? make/model?
[06:55] <vgambit> gateway 6510GZ
[06:55] <jamus> vgambit: i suggest that u use gparted live cd and part it to 10gb ext3 and 2gb swap
[06:55]  * Gnea notes...
[06:55] <Gnea> !laptop
[06:55] <brandonmpace> vgambit: is the bios updated to the latest version?
[06:56] <vgambit> I couldn't find an update for it
[06:56] <brandonmpace> hmm
[06:56] <vgambit> I went to the gateway driver page for the laptop, but it doesn't have a bios update listed
[06:56] <jamus> vgambit: and rest as ntfs in wich u can share thing between 2 os whichout compatibility issues
[06:57] <vgambit> jamus I don't want to share anything
[06:57] <jamus> vgambit: like music docs and vids
[06:57] <vgambit> what is on linux will only be used by linux
[06:57] <brandonmpace> vgambit: I usually do what jamus proposed
[06:57] <brandonmpace> vgambit: What is the make and model of your laptop
[06:57] <jamus> vgambit: ok its fine to do all space but u have to partit first
[06:57] <vgambit> gateway 6510GZ
[06:57] <chronographer> where is java directory in linux
[06:57] <chronographer> ?
[06:58] <chronographer> like JDK ...
[06:58] <brandonmpace> /usr/local/java    right?
[06:58] <Gnea> vgambit: okay, so let me get this straight - you bought a new hard drive for your laptop that the laptop doesn't support?
[06:58] <chronographer> nope
[06:58] <jamus> vgambit: and the thing is that linux reqiers like 10  gb at most to work and 2 gb swap so its a waste of space
[06:58] <brandonmpace> hmm
[06:58] <vgambit> I did this over a year ago and installed windows XP to it, but yes
[06:58] <badfish> if your bios can find it, you shoudl be good
[06:59] <vgambit> the only problem was that xp only saw 128 GB out of the 15*
[06:59] <MidgetSpy> hey guys i just created an ext3 partition and I'm confused about its size - it's reporting conflicting information: http://www.pastebin.ca/1206407 <-- any ideas?
[06:59] <brandonmpace> vgambit: then you´ll only be able to use the 128
[06:59] <chronographer> anyone know what " is the path into the jdk1.3 (or higher)" ?
[07:00] <vgambit> then how was the live cd able to mount both partitions?
[07:00] <Gnea> vgambit: you're just setting yourself up for a disaster then - you should either get a correctly-sized hd for your laptop, or use an external drive to install ubuntu on
[07:00] <jamus> vgambit: gparted live cd is a linux live cd wich shows u really wwhat iu have on harddrive
[07:00] <brandonmpace> vgambit: lol that´s computers for you
[07:00] <jamus> vgambit: its a surprise whatu can find
[07:00] <brandonmpace> it´s true
[07:00] <badfish> vgambit: what does your bios see?
[07:00] <vgambit> I read a forum post in a thread about error 18 where someone had a similar problem
[07:01] <Gnea> MidgetSpy: uhm, fdisk is used for a main disk, not a disk partition
[07:01] <vgambit> that person didn't encounter any issues until some new kernel update moved the kernel to the farther linux partition
[07:01] <vgambit> badfish I don't know what you mean
[07:01] <badfish> man
[07:02] <badfish> i go all night
[07:02] <badfish> i might have to go get another 40
[07:02] <Flannel> badfish: Please keep this channel on topic
[07:02] <jamus> vgambit: yea man u wil lsee it alot -im sruggeling with bad upgrade now :SS
[07:02] <Gnea> vgambit: this one? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=11764
[07:02] <brandonmpace> vgambit: as I said I know what is going on. I have had this problem. You need to install to a spot on the hard drive as close to 0 as you can get
[07:02] <MidgetSpy> Gnea: OK, http://www.pastebin.ca/1206410 <-- why does df say 200M used but only 878G free?
[07:02] <vgambit> brandonmpace, what if I slide the windows partition over?
[07:03] <vgambit> that's the thread Gnea
[07:03] <question> How do I 'force download' more than one torrent in deluge. I can't see any option to enable more than one torrent. I have 10 torrents in the que but only one is downloading.
[07:03] <brandonmpace> vgambit: I wouldn´t advise ¨sliding¨ the partition, but maybe downsizing it a little bit. Make sure to defrag it in windows first!
[07:03] <Gnea> MidgetSpy: because the journal itself takes up space - the larger the partition, the larger the journal. out of 878gigs, you're going to complain about a measely 200meg? :)
[07:04] <ushimitsudoki> question: one of the place to set is under Edit > Preferences > Queue. You can set  the number of active torrents there.
[07:04] <FAJALOU1> lol that's what like .00001% :P
[07:04] <brandonmpace> Gnea is correct
[07:04] <jamus> vgambit: i wanan tell u that win will not find a drive if not initiated and formatted correctly so consider it may work just fine
[07:04] <question> ushimitsudoki: Isn't there an option for 'force download'?
[07:04] <vgambit> brandonmpace I already shrunk it from 128 gb to 87 GB
[07:04] <MidgetSpy> Gnea: I'm not complaining about the 200 megs, hehe, I'm wondering how the drive says 925G total, 878G free, but only 200M used??
[07:04] <brandonmpace> vvgam
[07:05] <question> ushimitsudoki: I don't have a tab called que in edit>preferences.
[07:05] <MidgetSpy> does it count the usable space including the journal but the free space excluding it?
[07:05] <Gnea> MidgetSpy: well i really don't know how you setup your RAID
[07:05] <question> ushimitsudoki: Got it, stupid me. Is there a way I can force download directly from the main interface?
[07:05] <vgambit> jamus I can boot into windows if I use the super grub disk
[07:05] <brandonmpace> vgambit: ok so you just need to install linux with a / partition and a swap partition in the spot between 87 and 128
[07:06] <brandonmpace> vgambit: does that make sense?
[07:06] <MidgetSpy> Gnea: it's a hardware RAID5 array, this is the 2nd partition on it and is supposed to be 1GB (which it is). I just don't know why it says there's 50G used already
[07:06] <ushimitsudoki> question: well it is there for me on the latest version (0.9.09). That's how i manage my torrents. I'm not aware of a force download option. Perhaps the deluge forums can offer a better response?
[07:06] <vgambit> so 41 GB partition?
[07:07] <jamus> vgambit:  never tried it
[07:07] <brandonmpace> vgambit: whatever it would be, yes. be sure to make a 2 gig swap partition
[07:07] <brandonmpace> vgambit: just don´t go over 128
[07:07] <vgambit> brandonmpace will I be able to use that extra unallocated space by making another ntfs or fat32 partition?
[07:07] <badfish> 2 gig swap?
[07:07] <question> ushimitsudoki: creepy interface. There is an option called maximum simultaneous download torrents. Talk about usability.
[07:07] <question> ushimitsudoki: Thank you anyways.
[07:07] <badfish> got a gig ram?
[07:07] <vgambit> by not going over 128 do you mean on the boot partition or period?
[07:07] <jamus> vgambit: for dual boot u have to set win part to be the first
[07:07] <badfish> sounds about good
[07:07] <brandonmpace> vgambit: your laptop bios does not support it, and period
[07:07] <vgambit> shucks
[07:08] <Gnea> MidgetSpy: ah, then i suppose the hardware is swapping data behind the scenes all of the time, thus taking up space on the disks themselves, requiring a certain usage amount to maintain the integrity that 5 provides.
[07:08] <brandonmpace> vgambit: lol that´s computers
[07:08] <jamus> its 0,3 if im not mistaken - any other option will fail
[07:08] <badfish> vgamit: if, on boot, you press f2 repeadedly and it finds drive, bios supports it
[07:08] <vgambit> it finds a drive and it was booting fine
[07:08] <badfish> then bios supports it
[07:08] <vgambit> but that's before I decided to try going over the 128 GB point
[07:08] <badfish> problem isn't bios
[07:08] <brandonmpace> but your xp partition was only 128 right?
[07:09] <vgambit> right
[07:09] <brandonmpace> exactly
[07:09] <badfish> over 128Gb point?
[07:09] <MidgetSpy> Gnea: no, the redundant space is taken up by a separate disk in the array, the hardware card provides the OS a full 1000GB to use (as shown by fdisk).
[07:09] <brandonmpace> I have had this proble
[07:09] <brandonmpace> problem*
[07:09] <vgambit> partitioning programs wouldn't see that extra space at all
[07:09] <badfish> vgamit: recap for me quick, please
[07:09] <jamus> vgambit: ubuntu its not ntfs or fat-- its ext3 ext 2 and riefrst
[07:09] <vgambit> windows wouldn't, and neither would any program on hiren's boot cd
[07:09] <brandonmpace> because your bios wasn´t reporting it. and he was talking about an extra partition
[07:09] <vgambit> but ubuntu did
[07:09] <badfish> ubuntu can still see all partitions though
[07:09] <FAJALOU1> vgambit:  not gparted?
[07:10] <Gnea> MidgetSpy: hrmmmm.. could you please provide a pastebin of your /var/log/dmesg?
[07:10] <badfish> vgamit: what happened?
[07:10] <badfish> you started with windows?
[07:10] <vgambit> haven't tried gparted on this old laptop yet
[07:10] <jamus> vgambit:  use gparted live cd it shows averything
[07:10] <badfish> how many hard drives?
[07:10] <vgambit> 1
[07:10] <badfish> ok
[07:11] <badfish> started with what operatin system?
[07:11] <vgambit> xp
[07:11] <badfish> still have it?
[07:11] <vgambit> yes, but I can't boot into it without using super grub disc
[07:11] <brandonmpace> vgambit: I have had this problem and I fixed it by upgrading my bios. How old is the laptop??
[07:11] <badfish> if i asked you to do it now, could you boot to it?
[07:11] <vgambit> 2005
[07:11] <vgambit> yes
[07:12] <badfish> grub works to boot to windows?
[07:12] <vgambit> super grub disc does
[07:12] <badfish> the live cd?
[07:12] <vgambit> the grub that was installed from ubuntu doesn't boot anything
[07:12] <badfish> you have to use cd?
[07:12] <vgambit> yes
[07:12] <badfish> ok
[07:12] <badfish> take cd out and restart
[07:12] <badfish> not yet
[07:12] <badfish> but
[07:12] <FloodBot2> badfish: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[07:12] <jamus> vgambit, brandonmpace: upgrade bios by using motherboard homepage
[07:12] <Gnea> guys
[07:13] <vgambit> I can't find out what motherboard the laptop has
[07:13] <_xyz> ﻿_xyz: is it safe to resize Vista partitions from a live Ubuntu session?
[07:13] <Gnea> badfish, vgambit: please try to fill out complete sentences.. use punctuation.. you're making the channel scroll by too fast :)
[07:13] <vgambit> I am typing in complete sentences :p
[07:13] <brandonmpace> lol.
[07:14] <jamus> xyz; no
[07:14] <_xyz> why
[07:14] <Gnea> !pm | badfish
[07:14] <brandonmpace> _xyz: vista throws a hissy fit
[07:14] <badfish> !pm | Gnea
[07:14] <_xyz> well i tried from within vista's 'disk management' tool and it kinda froze up
[07:14] <Gnea> badfish: stop.
[07:14] <jamus> xyz: do it with gparted live cd just no big changes just gradual or it will take ages
[07:15] <FAJALOU1> xyz it is recommended to shrink vista use it's paritiion thing, have you tried it again
[07:15] <brandonmpace> _xyz: also defrag in windows first!
[07:15] <_xyz> FAJALUO1: yes i did. it didn't work well. froze up (just the app, not OS), so i rebooted
[07:15] <_xyz> no damage tho
[07:16] <_xyz> brandonmpace: defrag for speed?
[07:16] <brandonmpace> _xyz: noooo
[07:16] <FAJALOU1> xyz  i would suggest defragging and then trying it again.................
[07:16] <FAJALOU1> imo
[07:16] <brandonmpace> _xyz: so that you don´t lose data
[07:16] <jamus> xyz: becouse if u are notsure what u doing u will  -- u will -- messup ur thing and its a big issue to fix it
[07:16] <Aeron|mtf> i installed the sgt-puzzles package but when i run "sgt-puzzles" from the command line it says command not found.  i ran "which sgt-puzzles" and it reported nothing.
[07:16] <FAJALOU1> i got it to work on a friends computer w/ that , but take the other ppls words for it
[07:16] <jamus> xyz; be safe , use gparted live cd
[07:16] <_xyz> jamus: so i should start with let's say moving 10 gigs from a data partition to the OS partition?
[07:17] <brandonmpace> _xyz:  it pulls your data to the front of the partition so that when you resize you´re only wiping out empty space
[07:17] <_xyz> jamus: does gparted have a defrag tool?
[07:17] <Aeron|mtf> what command do i run to play sgt-puzzles?
[07:17] <FAJALOU1> xyz no
[07:17] <MidgetSpy> Gnea: the RAID5 hardware array is /dev/sdf (sda-sdd is a software array, sde is the OS drive)
[07:17] <brandonmpace> _xyz: use the windows defrag tool
[07:18] <_xyz> alright
[07:18] <jamus> xyz; use gparted and start small size like resize to -2 gb and see how ur machine handels it
[07:18] <_xyz> sounds good
[07:18] <_xyz> thanks for all your help guys
[07:18] <brandonmpace> _xyz: also you can use the system rescue cd http://www.sysresccd.org/Main_Page   burn that, boot it, and when it comes up type run_qtparted
[07:18] <jamus> xyz; no it doesnt have a defrag tool
[07:18] <brandonmpace> lol he left.
[07:19] <jamus> xyz; i reccomend u O&o defrag just dont allow acces to the internet or updateds
[07:19] <brandonmpace> lol or perfectdisk
[07:19] <jamus> xyz; for win i say
[07:19] <FAJALOU1> jamus; he left
[07:19] <vgambit> brandonmpace I should make an ext3 partition with the Mount point of / and a 2 GB swap partition while staying under 128 GB HDD usage, correct?
[07:19] <brandonmpace> yes
[07:20] <vgambit> ok
[07:20] <brandonmpace> that should work
[07:20] <jamus> FAJALOU1:  ok works for everyone to
[07:20] <vgambit> Primary partition for the root, right?
[07:20] <FAJALOU1> jamus true
[07:20] <brandonmpace> mbr if you can make it.
[07:20] <vgambit> ?
[07:20] <brandonmpace> but yes
[07:20] <brandonmpace> yes
[07:21] <vgambit> you mean I should make an MBR partition?
[07:21] <brandonmpace> no
[07:21] <jamus> vgambit:  ur main linux partition is /root
[07:21] <brandonmpace> actually it´s /
[07:21] <jamus> vgambit:  it can be as small as 10 gb and work like a charm (i have such)
[07:21] <brandonmpace> vgambit: continue with what you suggested yourself
[07:22] <jim_p> hello
[07:22] <FAJALOU1> hi jim
[07:22] <brandonmpace> vgambit: just leave your windows hda1 or sda1  partition alone if you don´t want to mess with it
[07:22] <Gnea> MidgetSpy: okay...
[07:22] <vgambit> jamus 10 gigs of space is no good for me and my 17 megabit connection
[07:23] <jamus> brandonmpace:  LOL true -- i can mess my sxit up alone and dont need help :DDD
[07:23] <brandonmpace> lol.
[07:23] <vgambit> brandonmpace yeah, I need it around for visual studio. it also has a bunch of files I'd rather not go through the chore of backing up/transferring to other PCs, etc.
[07:23] <FAJALOU1> ok so when i type lspci i get that the vga controller is  ATI RAdeon Mobility M7  (7500)  will this work with compiz?  and should i use envy-ng to install b/c it is not showing up in restricted drivers.
[07:24] <P041NX> lsusb is not working/not showing the list of usb attached. Any solution to this?
[07:24] <brandonmpace> vgambit: well then go ahead and let me know how it works out :)
[07:24] <vgambit> will do
[07:24] <FAJALOU> sorry for changin in the chan :\
[07:25] <jamus> vgambit:  its good to have exta partition for things in case u mess up ur windows
[07:25] <brandonmpace> FAJALOU: yes it should
[07:25] <Ape3000> Does partition resizing / moving delete my files on ext3 partitions_
[07:25] <FAJALOU> brandonmpace: it should but doesn't,,, so should i use envy-ng to install?
[07:25] <jamus> vgambit:  not all egges on 1 basket and bla bla
[07:25] <vgambit> current HDD usage is 126.1 4 GB which should be within the bios' bounds
[07:25] <brandonmpace> FAJALOU: I have the intel X3100 and it works. that ati chipset is better....
[07:25] <brandonmpace> vgambit: continue then
[07:26] <FAJALOU> brandonmpace:  then just use envy-ng?
[07:26] <jamus> Ape3000:  well it souldnt but back up just in case
[07:26] <brandonmpace> I think so, are you using the ati driver?
[07:27] <jamus> Ape3000: its hard work for hd needle u know
[07:27] <vgambit> I might have another problem in that the ubuntu asked if I wanted to import my xp user settings before, but not now
[07:27] <brandonmpace> Ape3000: if you resize an ext3 partition you most likely won´t be able to access the data on it. I have tried with many tools
[07:27] <vgambit> I guess that's because the mbr worked fine then
[07:27] <jamus> Ape3000: one little slap on pc while doing it and it will mess up
[07:27] <vgambit> ok brandonmpace, I found the advanced button this time
[07:27] <vgambit> what did you want me to do concerning grub installation?
[07:28] <brandonmpace> vgambit: that´s because you did custom partitioning and left windows partition alone
[07:28] <Ape3000> But shrinking and moving should save my files?
[07:28] <brandonmpace> vgambit: is your drive hd0 or sd0 or do you know
[07:28] <FAJALOU> brandonmpace:  then just use envy-ng?
[07:28] <brandonmpace> hda or sda
[07:28] <brandonmpace> FAJALOU: are you using the official ati driver?
[07:28] <vgambit> brandonmpace hd0 or /dev/sda
[07:29] <brandonmpace> vgambit: hd0        put that in the box for grub
[07:29] <jamus> Ape3000:  in general yes if u dont over shink it (use free space )
[07:29] <vgambit> brandonmpace then there's /dev/sda1, sda2, and sda-1
[07:29] <FAJALOU> brandonmpace:  currently i am not using any driver; no effects yet
[07:29] <vgambit> brandonmpace that was the default option; are you sure I shouldn't pick /dev/sda?
[07:30] <brandonmpace> vgambit: install it to >       (hd0)
[07:30] <vgambit> ok
[07:30] <brandonmpace> vgambit: it will be fine i promise lol
[07:30] <jamus> vgambit:  if on same fisical drive it should be sda1,0 sda1.3 sda1.5 and so on
[07:30] <brandonmpace> FAJALOU: install the official ati driver, then try installing compiz fusion
[07:31] <vgambit> brandonmpace it just looked like that would've been the option it chose last time
[07:31] <FAJALOU> brandonmpace:  where can i find the official ones?
[07:31] <vgambit> which makes sense considering the only thing that really seemed to have gone wrong was me using space that the bios doesn't allow
[07:31] <brandonmpace> vgambit:  yes just leave it, it will work
[07:31] <jamus> FAJALOU:  add/remove
[07:31] <vgambit> and now, the wait :)
[07:31] <FAJALOU> jamus ty
[07:31] <brandonmpace> FAJALOU: they should be in the add remove programs. just allow the universe/multiverse etc
[07:32] <brandonmpace> FAJALOU: and type ati
[07:32] <brandonmpace> vgambit: I bet this works :)
[07:32] <FAJALOU> brandonmpace:  ty
[07:33] <brandonmpace> FAJALOU: you´re welcome
[07:33] <d0wn> is there a way to have my ubuntu server broadcast a video file to another computer through the command line?
[07:33] <P041NX> I need to detect what usb devices are attached, but lsusb suddenly started to refuse showing the list. it works with the -t option, however...ideas, please.
[07:33] <brandonmpace> FAJALOU: also install ccsm in synaptic under administration
[07:33] <jamus> FAJALOU:  urwlcmd
[07:33] <brandonmpace> FAJALOU: that´s compiz config settings manager
[07:33] <FAJALOU> brandonmpace: ya after that i know where they are i think :)  always used nvidia, so this is new :D
[07:34] <Aeron|mtf> where is the sgt-puzzles package located when installed on Ubuntu?  i installed it and don't know what command to run to play it
[07:34] <P041NX> d0wn: simplest stream is cat videofile.avi | nc -l -p ${port of your choice}
[07:34] <raulh> hello can anyone help me?
[07:34] <FAJALOU> !ask | raulh

[07:38] <brandonmpace> FAJALOU: is it the newest one?   go ahead and try compiz and see cause I forget how that´s worded but yes it says 2d for some cards
[07:38] <raulh> i can't
[07:38] <raulh> only has 2 options

[07:38] <chuy_max> hey guys, what command can I use to append and prepend a string to every line in a file?
[07:38] <brandonmpace> d0wn: you´re welcome
[07:38] <FAJALOU> brandonmpace: i tried adding visual effects in appearance, no avail
[07:39] <raulh> i followed this method
[07:39] <raulh> http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/nvidia
[07:39] <brandonmpace> hmm
[07:40] <jamus> FAJALOU:  its a problem with .20 kernels im struggeling with it
[07:40] <FAJALOU> .. i am still on .19 i believe
[07:40] <P041NX> chuy_max: cat $file |sed "s:^.*$:${texttoaddatfrom}\1${text to addat back}:g"
[07:40] <brandonmpace> FAJALOU: I think jamus is correct
[07:40] <Falcons_roost> !nvidia setting
[07:40] <jamus> FAJALOU:  in general u have to have the right drivers and enable effects and then use compiz
[07:40] <Falcons_roost> !nvidia
[07:40] <raulh> so im guessing i have to kill ubuntu :$?
[07:40] <zepard> Aeron|mtf, /usr/games
[07:40] <FAJALOU> but again i am only on kernel .19
[07:41] <brandonmpace> FAJALOU: It will be implemented smoothly soon i´m sure
[07:41] <jim_p_busy> can someonle please kick my duplicate inactive account? it's jim_p
[07:41] <brandonmpace> FAJALOU: go to a terminal and type uname -r
[07:41] <zepard> Aeron|mtf, take a look at /usr/games
[07:41] <Aeron|mtf> zepard, i don't see the directory for it in /usr/games
[07:41] <andypants2> use /kill man
[07:41] <FAJALOU> 19-generic  brandonmpace
[07:41] <brandonmpace> hmm
[07:41] <zepard> Aeron|mtf, no directory only execs
[07:42] <Flannel> jim_p_busy: You just have to wait for it to time out.  If you register it, you can ghost it.
[07:42] <P041NX> chuy_max: forgot the bracket.. cat $file |sed "s:\(^.*$\):${texttoaddatfrom}\1${text to addat back}:g"
[07:42] <jim_p_busy> ok thanks
[07:42] <jamus> FAJALOU:  always keep a version of kernel wich works and dont upgrade automaticly
[07:42] <Aeron|mtf> zepard, yet when i try to reinstall it says the package already exists.
[07:42] <jim_p_busy> i just have to wait
[07:42] <zepard> Aeron|mtf, sgt-puzz is a set of puzzles
[07:42] <Aeron|mtf> zepard, okay.....execs...i don't see it in there

[07:42] <badfish> what's the command to remove a directory?
[07:42] <brandonmpace> badfish: rm

[07:52] <Ontolog> damnit?
[07:52] <Ontolog> damnit is not a swear
[07:52] <ubuntunub> i genuinely hate linux
[07:52] <vgambit> brandonmpace that's gonna be difficult considering gateway doesn't even acknowledge the motherboard's existence
[07:52] <ubuntunub> as of now
[07:52] <ubuntunub> i mean why in the hell are these files locked anyway
[07:52] <brandonmpace> vgambit: lol I know

[07:53] <xiaopi> Hello, got question with Apache and SVN folders. I did an svn checkout in ~user/public_html/test , but if i browse ~user/public_html, i don't see the test folder
[07:53] <Ontolog> Does anyone else have constant crashing of Firefox?
[07:53] <CentHOGG> ot
[07:53] <vgambit> indeed
[07:53] <CentHOGG> it's after 1am
[07:53] <xiaopi> Is apache hiding some type of folders?
[07:53] <vgambit> I would use linux on all my computers if I didn't like gaming and intellisense
[07:53] <ubuntunub> linux sucks
[07:53] <brandonmpace> ubuntunub: can you please pastebin the result of it from that last command. from /
[07:53] <CentHOGG> vgambit: yeh
[07:54] <Flannel> ubottu: please watch your language.
[07:54] <ubuntunub> its only useful for some things imho
[07:54] <P041NX> Ontolog: what version of firefox/ubuntu are u using?
[07:54] <Flannel> xiaopi: Which kind do you think?
[07:54] <BioTeck> my ibook doesnt have a cdrom.. so any other way i could install ubuntu here?
[07:54] <ubuntunub> http://pastebin.com/m3430afea
[07:54] <xiaopi> an svn one
[07:54] <FAJALOU> !install > BioTeck
[07:54] <brandonmpace> Ontolog: are you watching flash videos?
[07:54] <xan1th> !install
[07:54] <Flannel> xiaopi: Is it readable by the www-data user?
[07:55] <xiaopi> just did a checkout in subfolder with the same user
[07:55] <Ontolog> it's not even Flash
[07:55] <ubuntunub> i think my Ubuntu install is just going through PMS, since 5 minutes ago this was working fine
[07:55] <ubuntunub> its the only explanation
[07:55] <xiaopi> yeah it is
[07:55] <brandonmpace> Ontolog: well no then... mine only crashes on massive amounts of flash
[07:55] <Flannel> ubottu: No, you're doing the wrong command.  What command are you trying?
[07:55] <xiaopi> I just get a: The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
[07:55] <BioTeck> install?? but how?
[07:56] <kevin__> so Adobe Flash is proprietary software and I understand that Ubuntu cannot supply this, but is there an open-source equivalent out there?
[07:56] <xiaopi> But everything else works fin
[07:56] <Flannel> kevin__: You can use adobe flash.  but there is also gnash.
[07:56] <Flannel> !flash | kevin__
[07:56] <brandonmpace> ubuntunub: can you pastebin the full thing, including the command
[07:56] <kevin__> ok, thanks
[07:56] <ubuntunub> sudo -rm -r /home/USERNAME/rtl8187_linux_26.1010.0622.2006
[07:56] <Ontolog> err yes
[07:56] <ubuntunub> thats it dude, not much to it
[07:56] <Ontolog> this site actually has some flash
[07:56] <Ontolog> but i can watch youtube.com
[07:56] <Ontolog> no problem
[07:56] <brandonmpace> kevin__: you can install flash using add/remove
[07:57] <Flannel> ubottu: Alright.  Your issue is the - infront of "rm"  not sudo -rm, but sudo rm.
[07:57] <ubuntunub> i also tried sudo -rm /home/USERNAME/rtl8187_linux_26.1010.0622.2006
[07:57] <bhindi> installing xxxx.c file
[07:57] <Ontolog> i'm just really disgusted by the recent increase in unstability
[07:57] <vgambit> hooray, a new problem! I can't mount the windows partition on my newly installed ubuntu
[07:57] <Flannel> ubuntunub: Alright.  Your issue is the - infront of "rm"  not sudo -rm, but sudo rm.
[07:57] <vgambit> oh, wait, nevermind
[07:57] <xiaopi> just force the ntfs
[07:57] <bhindi> installing xxxx.c file any 1 know
[07:57] <brandonmpace> ubuntunub: try it without the -r
[07:57] <ubuntunub> i did

[07:58] <ubuntunub> i rebooted too and tried it again
[07:58] <ubuntunub> in and out of directory, different command combos, etc
[07:58] <Flannel> ubuntunub: no.  You're not listening.
[07:58] <Ontolog> try this url; http://www.gamespot.com/games.html?type=games&platform=1028&mode=all&sort=views&dlx_type=all&sortdir=asc&official=all+%BB&page=2
[07:58] <brandonmpace> ubuntunub: it´s not sudo -rm                     it´s sudo rm
[07:58] <Flannel> ubuntunub: "sudo rm" instead of "sudo -rm"
[07:58] <vgambit> looks like this is the exact problem a friend of mine had a few weeks ago; if you do an unclean/unsafe shutdown of windows, you won't be able to mount the windows partition in linux until you boot windows normally and shutdown properly
[07:58] <Flannel> vgambit: or force it, yes.
[07:58] <parrott> hello, can some one please help me, my ubuntu install is borked please look at my forum thread for info http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=924819

[07:59] <vgambit> Flannel force what now?

[08:00] <DEdwards> hey, quickie here, i forgot for some reason how to chown, say i need to change to owner of dir "foo" so that user "bar" owns it

[08:01] <P041NX> chown gourp:user file
[08:01] <xan1th> DEdwards: man chown -- chown -R [user] [dir]
[08:01] <brandonmpace> vgambit: I remember when ntfs support first came out lol.   ntfs-3g       those were some hoops if you messed up, trust me ;)
[08:01] <ompaul> !language | ubuntunub
[08:01] <ompaul> CentHOGG, it is 8am where I sit
[08:01] <Flannel> DEdwards: without the -R
[08:01] <xan1th> without the -R for a directory?
[08:01] <Romster> brandonmpace, yeah ntfs could easily of messed the partiton up and the MFT zone.
[08:02] <vgambit> brandonmpace, yeah, ubuntu/linux has certainly come a long way in the 2 years or so that I've left it
[08:02] <CentHOGG> anybody here seen the Prisoner TV Show?
[08:02] <Flannel> xan1th: no, -R is recursive
[08:02] <Romster> ntfs-3g is working a lot better
[08:02] <DEdwards> xan1th, Flannerl, thanks, im embarrassed
[08:02] <Flannel> CentHOGG: please take non-support topics to #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:02] <CentHOGG> ha
[08:02] <xan1th> I know it's recursive, but I've always used it in changing directories
[08:02] <Flannel> DEdwards: no need to be embarassed
[08:02] <brandonmpace> vgambit: I love seeing the progress :)
[08:02] <b-relaxed> when I do a partial upgrade I get "error authenticating some packags"  {initscripts , libamrnb3 , sysvinit-utils , mplayer , openoffice.org-base-core} is this normal ?
[08:03] <kevin__> how can I safely remove my External Harddrive from my computer? I tried "unmount volume" but the drive is still active.
[08:03] <brandonmpace> b-relaxed: I have never had luck with partial upgrades and prefer to do a clean install due to problems like this
[08:03] <BioTeck> so.. can anyone plz gide me on how to install over a windows or linux network on a ibook?
[08:03] <DEdwards> b-relaxed, the pakgs install fine?
[08:03] <vgambit> brandonmpace, I stand no chance of even attempting it with 8 MB of vram, but compiz/beryl/whatever it is now called is now a part of ubuntu, right?
[08:03] <parrott> is anyone able to help me with my fsck issue -> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=924819 for more info
[08:03] <DEdwards> i prefer clean install as well
[08:04] <brandonmpace> vgambit: I believe so, I know it is in mandriva, etc
[08:04] <ompaul> happy software freedom day ----
[08:04] <BioTeck> or @least like.. let me know just what i need to do so i can do it myself?
[08:04] <P041NX> kevin__: umount ${disk} , then hdparm One of "-S -Y -y -Z" with "-C"
[08:04] <DEdwards> ompaul, thats everyday i use linux :)
[08:04] <ompaul> ---- note I am about to unban some users this may cause you some scrolling please wait a few seconds ----
[08:04] <CentHOGG> ompaul: while it lasts
[08:04] <brandonmpace> vgambit: you can install ccsm (compizconfig settings manager) on a computer that runs compiz to do advanced config
[08:05] <b-relaxed> yeah , everything is working fine. but when it prompts the update it always give this error, i tried autoclean and autoremove
[08:05] <P041NX> kevin__: you can force disk to spin down.
[08:05] <Romster> omg
[08:05] <kevin__> P041NX, -- in english that means....what?
[08:05] <ompaul> Finished!
[08:05] <parrott> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=924819 anyone >
[08:05] <kevin__> P041NX, -- dude..don't answer my questions before i ask..jeeze man.
[08:05] <vgambit> brandonmpace ah, cool. I used to run compiz back around the time when that initial demo video first got popular on the net. I might try dual booting XP and ubuntu on my more powerful dell laptop
[08:05] <zamanfou> fede2,
[08:05] <P041NX> kevin__: well, after a umount to unmount the filesystem, the disk is still spinning, su by using the hdparm command, you can stom the motor of the hdd
[08:06] <Logan_2> kevin__: what is your native language?
[08:06] <brandonmpace> vgambit: lol I remember beryl, but never used it, I just used compiz, and now compiz-fusion which is compiz and beryl
[08:06] <kevin__> P041NX, i'll give that a try
[08:06] <kevin__> Logan_2, english, but not ubuntu-english
[08:06] <BioTeck> can anyone read me?
[08:06] <Flannel> BioTeck: yes
[08:06] <vgambit> brandonmpace, I mean *before* beryl was called beryl.
[08:06] <DEdwards> gotcha BioTeck
[08:06] <BioTeck> cool ty
[08:07] <P041NX> kevin__:man hdparm and everything you need is in there.
[08:07] <brandonmpace> vgambit: lol
[08:07] <kevin__> P041NX, way ahead of you, thanks
[08:07] <vgambit> brandonmpace, it was someone's personal offshoot of compiz, and it had that person's handle in the name, but I forgot it
[08:07] <BioTeck> i read some tutorials.. but is just not working how it should so.. am kind of confuse and about to give up
[08:08] <brandonmpace> vgambit: yea I was just happy to be using linux lol.
[08:08] <parrott> is there any way i can recover my filesystem from the recovery shell other than fsck
[08:08] <parrott> it keeps on erroring
[08:09] <brandonmpace> parrott: do you know how you messed it up?
[08:09] <Logan_2> how do i open new server window in chatzilla?
[08:09] <brutus> suspend on my gutsy just locks the screen...whats the problem?
[08:09] <brandonmpace> brutus: are you on a laptop?
[08:09] <FAJALOU> has anyone used envy-ng before?  i  am thinking it is the only way right now to get effects to work, and to get ati drivers cleanly installed.
[08:09] <parrott> no idea, the machine was running over night, i woke up looked at the machine and it had all file system errors in the swap partition
[08:09] <cbx33> anyone good at routing here?
[08:09] <brandonmpace> FAJALOU: try it lol
[08:09] <Logan_2> how do i open new server window in chatzilla?
[08:09] <parrott> now i cannot boot into x at all
[08:09] <parrott> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=924819 for more info
[08:09] <vgambit> brandonmpace, yeah
[08:09] <FAJALOU> brandonmpace:  lol can always uninstall right ;)
[08:10] <parrott> no one has responded to my thread :/
[08:10] <cbx33> Hi all, does ip_forward change the source ip of a packet being routed to a different subnet?
[08:10] <brutus> brandonmpace, yeah
[08:10] <Logan_2> how do i open new server window in chatzilla?
[08:10] <brutus> brandonmpace, its an hp laptop
[08:10] <brandonmpace> brutus:  this is a common problem with ubuntu on laptops, as well as many other linux distros. I´m sure this will be corrected asap
[08:11] <BioTeck> so...
[08:11] <kevin__> P041NX, how do i deduce my external device name?
[08:11] <chalcedony> how can i copy Xchat to make a 2nd copy?
[08:11] <kevin__> P041NX, as I understand it, the cmd is hdparm -Y devicename
[08:11] <Flannel> parrott: /lastlog -clear
[08:11] <icedtea`> chalcedony: what do you mean?
[08:11] <brutus> brandonmpace, ok, but what about commands like s2disk and s2ram? They dont seem to work too...
[08:11] <P041NX> kevin__::if you have named your partition (if it's exte) then you can get the info from mount
[08:11] <parrott> just type that into the recovery console?
[08:11] <Flannel> parrott: sorry.  If you do this at the recovery shell: `touch /forcefsck` and then reboot, you'll fsck before mounting.
[08:12] <Flannel> parrott: no, ignore that first one.
[08:12] <chalcedony> icedtea: i want to make an xchat2a or so
[08:12] <parrott> cool ill give it a go
[08:12] <P041NX> kevin__:yep, the -Y or the -y option will force hdd to spin down
[08:12] <P041NX> so you need the hdd name
[08:12] <icedtea`> chalcedony: what are you trying to accomplish?
[08:13] <brandonmpace> brutus: I have tried this on about 10 different laptops of different brands and no luck.  go check out tux on ice if you need to suspend  http://www.tuxonice.net/
[08:13] <parrott> i cannot preform touch
[08:13] <parrott> the file system is mounted read only
[08:13] <Logan_2> read only
[08:13] <Logan_2> sudo
[08:13] <brandonmpace> parrott: is your swap messed up or your ext3?
[08:13] <chalcedony> icedtea: on a network i go to i need xchat to do 2 completely different things so i need two different xchats.
[08:13] <Logan_2> sudo fies read only
[08:13] <P041NX> kevin__:/proc/mounts or /proc/partitions should give you the data
[08:14] <badfish_2> don't make me use bnce
[08:14] <badfish_2> please
[08:14] <parrott> it mentioned swap
[08:14] <brutus> brandonmpace, ok, thanks a lot, I'll have a look
[08:14] <parrott> first off
[08:14] <parrott> but now ext3 by the looks of it
[08:14] <badfish_2> swap
[08:14] <parrott> i can browse around directories
[08:14] <parrott> cat files ect
[08:14] <wx9j_> the desktop icons are gone, and I cannot access anything in my home folder, it is locked up ???
[08:14] <parrott> so it cant be that broken :P
[08:14] <badfish_2> you can swap between vista and ubuntu via
[08:14] <DEdwards> parrott, replied
[08:14] <Flannel> parrott: we really need to know what the errors were.
[08:14] <parrott> sweet
[08:14] <ttt--> hi, how do i add something permanently to my PATH?
[08:14] <badfish_2> you gotta make a partition with vista
[08:14] <BioTeck> so if i put my ubuntu ppc on my ubuntu pc and connect my ibook in the network.. i should be able to see the cdrom and install it from there?
[08:15] <badfish_2> ubuntu can read vista partitions
[08:15] <ttt--> ?help PATH
[08:15] <brandonmpace> parrott: have you tried just deleting your swap partition and re creating it?
[08:15] <parrott> lol Dedwards
[08:15] <parrott> from the recovery console i remind you
[08:15] <parrott> sudo is not working
[08:15] <DEdwards> parrott, here to help :P
[08:15] <kevin__> I've tried both of those, still can't find it (when I hit <tab> to try and auto-comp the name) - its a standard Western Digital External HD...
[08:15] <DEdwards> lol
[08:15] <brandonmpace> I know use a live cd or the gparted cd
[08:16] <hosk> how do i kill sudo
[08:16] <kevin__> P041NX, I've tried both of those, still can't find it (when I hit <tab> to try and auto-comp the name) - its a standard Western Digital External HD...
[08:16] <hosk> i accidentally ran sudo emacs as a background process
[08:16] <DEdwards> hosk, define 'kill'
[08:16] <brandonmpace> hosk: what do you mean?
[08:16] <P041NX> kevin__: is is a usb attached one?
[08:16] <kevin__> es
[08:16] <kevin__> yes
[08:16] <parrott> command sudo is available /usr/bin/sudo is not included in the PATH environment variable
[08:16] <hosk> now sudo is taking up 100% of my proc and i can't kill it
[08:16] <DEdwards> brandonmpace, nice timing
[08:16] <BioTeck> maybe?
[08:16] <icedtea`> chalcedony: you can't just run it again and open a second window?
[08:16] <DEdwards> hosk, reboot?
[08:17] <parrott> the question is, would the samba service be running at all with my machine in this state, ie backing up over the network
[08:17] <hosk> dammit, i really was hoping to avoid that...
[08:17] <hosk> oh well
[08:17] <kevin__> P041NX, yes, its a USB device.
[08:17] <FAJALOU> brandonmpace: lol i tried to manuall install the drivers through envy-ng; nothing
[08:17] <brandonmpace> parrott: you may have to do a clean install
[08:17] <Flannel> parrott: LiveCD
[08:17] <DEdwards> hosk, what so bad with a reboot
[08:17] <parrott> QQ
[08:17] <BioTeck> yes? no?
[08:17] <parrott> livecd wont boot
[08:17] <parrott> exactly
[08:17] <wx9j_> lost all desktop icons including a second hd,
[08:17] <chalcedony> icedtea: i want to copy a hidden directory ~$ ls .xchat2
[08:17] <chalcedony> bkservlist_.conf  ignore.conf	     popup.conf		  user_match-005-1.pl
[08:17] <brandonmpace> FAJALOU: I will look into it. what is the ati graphics chipset again?
[08:17] <hosk> oh nevermind, it finally died
[08:17] <chalcedony> icedtea: etc
[08:17] <icedtea`> another bug in sudo. this is why ubunto should have a root login
[08:17] <hosk> i hate rebooting, i like weeklong uptimes
[08:18] <P041NX> kevin__:  a lsusb will give you the divice name, and from there, the attached place aka sda0, etc,etc.. can be found. normaly, a shell script is used to aboid the mess
[08:18] <icedtea`> *ubuntu
[08:18] <Flannel> icedtea`: Please take non-support discussion to #ubuntu-offtopic, thanks
[08:18] <FAJALOU> it is a 6500 or 7500, i got it to manually install some stuff, so one second, and let's see if this works ;)
[08:18] <DEdwards> hosk, me too, besides the occasional memory leak, my family dell is a 24/7 machine
[08:18] <brandonmpace> parrott: use alternate install?  do a memtest
[08:18] <BioTeck> where do i take the mac-support discussion??
[08:19] <parrott> disk has been tested, memtest has been run (propper memtest) all came up clean
[08:19] <brandonmpace> icedtea: you can log in as root
[08:19] <kevin__> P041NX, Bus 003 Device 002: ID 1058:0702 Western Digital Technologies, Inc.  -- so what would be the correct command -- and I might steal your knowledge in creating a script
[08:19] <Flannel> BioTeck: PPC mac or intel mac?
[08:19] <hosk> sweet, i guess the problem sorted itself out from all the kill commands i was sending it
[08:20] <icedtea`> brandonmpace: without using sudo?
[08:20] <P041NX> kevin__: obtaining the /dev/sdx before umount is the simplest, and the next is from extracting from the dmesg
[08:20] <pan_> is there a way to get rid of network-manager-gnome and still be able to connect to the internet
[08:21] <pan_> through console
[08:21] <FAJALOU> pan_  wicd
[08:21] <FAJALOU> but it's not real good
[08:21] <brandonmpace> icedtea: there is a way to use su           and you can also login as root at the login screen with a simple clicking of a checkbox in system>administration>users groups
[08:21] <zuhr1> my networkmanager can't detect AP, but if i use kismet i can. i'm using madwifi-ng-r2756+ar5007 driver
[08:21] <BioTeck> sorry...ppc
[08:21] <FAJALOU> lol brandonmpace low graphics mode :D
[08:21] <brandonmpace> FAJALOU: that´s loads of fun ;)
[08:21] <icedtea`> pan_: there's the ifup/ifdown scripts
[08:21] <kevin__> P041NX, I'm gonna be honest, I don't know what it means to "obtain the /dev/sdx" nor what it would mean to "extract from the dmsg" -- gawd I hate being a ubu-noob
[08:22] <jamus> pan: sudo ppoe config maybe?
[08:22] <Flannel> BioTeck: What do you need help with?
[08:22] <FAJALOU> lol up
[08:22] <parrott> oh wth
[08:22] <P041NX> kevin__: but normaly the usb attached disk is hot pluggable, su if you are really into hub raid like me, a script to keep the usb drive up/down is best.
[08:22] <parrott> live cd
[08:22] <brandonmpace> zuhr1:  what is the exact wireless chipset?
[08:22] <BioTeck> installing ubuntu on a ibook g3 with no cdrom
[08:22] <pan_> say i connected to the internet and i want to disconnect from network through console to connect to another network how would i do that?
[08:22] <zuhr1> atheros
[08:22] <pan_> sudo ifconfig ath0 down?
[08:22] <P041NX> :
[08:22] <parrott> SQUASHFS error failed reading block scrolling up and down the screen after loading the kernal
[08:22] <parrott> :@
[08:22] <brandonmpace> atheros what
[08:22] <icedtea`> pan_: ifdown ath0
[08:23] <BioTeck> all i want to know is where to start so i dont have to bother anyone else.. plz
[08:23] <jamus> pan;
[08:23] <pan_> then in console i just iwconfig ath0 essid "name"
[08:23] <jamus> pan;
[08:23] <kevin__> P041NX, yea, its definately a hot pluggable device. but when the device is running/attached there is a risk of damaging the data/device.
[08:23] <pan_> and ap
[08:23] <pan_> and dhclient ath0?
[08:23] <zuhr1> why i can  know my chipset
[08:23] <P041NX> kevin__: dmesg keeps a log of system, that that includes attached/detached disks. not the best way, but if you've lost the /dev/sda etc,etc, you can look it up
[08:23] <Flannel> !install | BioTeck
[08:23] <Flannel> BioTeck: that page might be able to help.
[08:23] <brandonmpace> kevin__: what is it you´re trying to use? an external hard drive?
[08:23] <icedtea`> pan_: look at setting up ifup/ifdown with different settings
[08:24] <Daft_Punk> i have an issue with amsn, i NEVER see dialogue boxes popup when someone signs in/sends msg, and nor do i hear sounds when someone msg me... :( i checked preferences too
[08:24] <icedtea`> pan_: man interfaces
[08:24] <Flannel> BioTeck: I believe it's got all the pieces (booting from USB/network, etc) you just have to make it work with th  mac.
[08:24] <FAJALOU> haha brandonmpace it doesn't like that :D
[08:24] <pan_> ok
[08:24] <icedtea`> pan_: /etc/network/interfaces
[08:24] <BioTeck> what page Flannel?
[08:24] <pan_> thx icedtea
[08:24] <Flannel> BioTeck: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation
[08:24] <jamus> pan: lets get thing straight u r talking about wlan right?
[08:24] <kevin__> brandonmpace, I'm using a Western Digital External USB HD, and I want to saftely remove the device by stopping it before detaching.
[08:24] <brandonmpace> zuhr1: you need to look up the specs for you laptop
[08:25] <BioTeck> oh.. i followed those tutorials and didnt work
[08:25] <zuhr1> acer aspire 4520
[08:25] <vgambit> my main pc takes 2 minutes to boot from power on to firefox. old crappy laptop does the same in 1:22
[08:25] <Daft_Punk> kevin__, to stop a device open terminal and "sudo umount /media/drivename"
[08:25] <brandonmpace> kevin__: open up nautilus,  places  home or whatever. then in the left side you see the device listed?
[08:25] <pan_> sudo umount the destination of the mount
[08:25] <Winston_1mithVT> kevin__: Unmount it before removing it, right click on the icon and select or unmount DEVICE in a terminal
[08:25] <P041NX> kevin__:so if you have a partition, say ext3, then before umounting the device, you should obtain the /dev/sdx thing from mount, and preform both umount and hdpam from a single script
[08:25] <brandonmpace> kevin__: does it show up on your desktop?
[08:25] <Winston_1mithVT> err
[08:25] <Winston_1mithVT> kevin__: Umount
[08:25] <kevin__> brandonmpace, yes, the device is listed
[08:26] <brandonmpace> kevin__: if it does, right click> unmount
[08:26] <Daft_Punk> lol, 5 ppl helping kevin__  at the same time, he will explooooode
[08:26] <pan_> if u mount like desktop then u sudo umount ~/Desktop
[08:26] <BioTeck> i try getting the files and put them on the system folder as my tutorial says and all i got was a error message and when back to mac os
[08:26] <kevin__> Winston_1mithVT, after unmounting the image, it still RUNS. I can still access it and the disk within still spins => not safe to remove.
[08:26] <P041NX> kevin__: if you want to get the /dev/sdx thing from dmesg, yo have to find the sg with right number os there is a can of worms waiting, and it's not the proper way to do it anyway.
[08:26] <icedtea`> brandonmpace: ok, thanks. is there a way to do this on the console? what files need to edited to allow root on a tty?
[08:26] <kevin__> :: EXPLODING ::
[08:26] <B3z3rk3r> Daft_Punk,  hey.. long time no see :P
[08:26] <steinar> la5lia
[08:26] <Daft_Punk> B3z3rk3r, hi
[08:26] <Winston_1mithVT> Gau and you can't get decent aid? I do admit I don't know hwat country you are in, but I have a friend that is going to college right now and has to pay almost nothing.
[08:27] <jamus> pan: Winston_1mithVT, everyoene pls use nicks in answers so ppl will catch up with q&a
[08:27] <Winston_1mithVT> err sorry wrong chan people
[08:27] <FAJALOU> brandonmpace:  what do you suppose i should do?
[08:27] <wx9j_> lost all desktop icons, with no response on anything in the home folder ???
[08:27] <Daft_Punk> !offtopic | Winston_1mithVT
[08:27] <brandonmpace> icedtea: I am not sure as I have never done tty myself. (never had to)
[08:27] <Daft_Punk> i have an issue with amsn, i NEVER see dialogue boxes popup when someone signs in/sends msg, and nor do i hear sounds when someone msg me... :( i checked preferences too
[08:27] <kevin__> brandonmpace, after unmounting the image, it still RUNS. I can still access it and the disk within still spins => not safe to remove.
[08:27] <brandonmpace> FAJALOU: does installing the ati driver make the other resolutions show?
[08:28] <Winston_1mithVT> Daft_Punk: I know I'm already there, just forgot to switch channels
[08:28] <steinar> Alos lost all icons after removing all java in packet manager. reinstall was my solution.
[08:28] <brandonmpace> kevin__: go to the /media folder      and tell me the name of the device
[08:28] <FAJALOU> i don't really need other reses (and no not really)  the res i am at is good.  i don't need more, and compiz still doesn't work on it,,, am going to see about getting some help on #ati
[08:28] <FAJALOU> o wow
[08:28] <FAJALOU> hold on...
[08:28] <Daft_Punk> kevin__, if you unmount the device, the hard drive will still be RUNNING, and if you click on a bookmark or mount it again it will be accessible. If you "sudo umount /media/harddrive" and go to the /media/ folder and you dont see it anymore it is safe to remove the USB of the hard drive, then power it off
[08:28] <jamus> damn .020 kernel upgrade messed my sound card too
[08:28] <FAJALOU> now we are back to like 640*800
[08:29] <Hestv4> Wireless should work out-of-the-box with Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid Ibex (as from kernel 2.6.27-1-generic)
[08:29] <Hestv4> it does not on -3
[08:29] <jamus> it is -- a lousy upgrade
[08:29] <brandonmpace> FAJALOU: I think you may have to wait until it is properly implemented with your chipset I´m guessing
[08:29] <raulh> hello i just downloaded tremulous, and its an installerx86.run
[08:29] <FAJALOU> i guess, but what happened?  i was at 024*768 and now i'm at really really big
[08:29] <raulh> how do i install the game?
[08:29] <jamus> keep finding stuff not working
[08:30] <icedtea`> raulh: ./installerx86.run
[08:30] <raulh> how :\
[08:30] <brandonmpace> kevin__: Daft_Punk  is correct
[08:30] <FAJALOU> prolly went back to mesa drivers?
[08:30] <Daft_Punk> raulh, open terminal, go to the folder which the .run is contained in and run the command icedtea gave you
[08:30] <brandonmpace> FAJALOU: I believe so
[08:30] <vgambit> does anyone have a link to a page for commonly downloaded/restricted packages (codecs, useful programs, etc.)?
[08:31] <zuhr1> ﻿okey my adapter is work properly before. but this problem cause after  install rt76 driver
[08:31] <raulh> its on my desktop
[08:31] <BioTeck> alrite then
[08:31] <FAJALOU> so i will reinstall the envy-ng stuff; just so i can get my res back
[08:31] <kevin__> Daft_Punk, brandonmpace, P041NX got it, thanks for the help gents!
[08:31] <Pirate_Hunter> what is the command to force fsck to check hds on boot?
[08:31] <jamus> raulth: copy entire path from browser
[08:31] <P041NX> Daft_Punk: hevin wants to preform hdparm -y after unmounting the disk. it's to spin down the motor safely... normaly i use a script, but kevin has aready unmounted with out knowing what hdd it is
[08:31] <brandonmpace> vgambit: http://www.medibuntu.org/
[08:31] <jamus> raulth: and use console
[08:31] <FAJALOU> Pirate_Hunter:  sudo touch <path to Hdd>/forcefsck
[08:31] <Daft_Punk> raulh, open terminal (applications, accessories, terminal) then go to your desktop which should be "cd /home/username/Desktop/" and then put the command "./installerx86.run"
[08:32] <kevin__> P041NX, the disk stopped finally.. probably from lack of use.
[08:32] <Flannel> !fsck | FAJALOU
[08:32] <vgambit> thanks, brandonmpace
[08:32] <Pirate_Hunter> FAJALOU: i wish for fsck to check all hds on boot not just one

[08:33] <brandonmpace> znik: this is very common. just have it already switched on. leave it on
[08:33] <P041NX> kevin__:id suggest writing a simple script that extract /dev/sdx thing from mount, and prefrom both umount and hdparm from a single script. it becomes much easyer.
[08:33] <raulh> ok im at the desktop
[08:33] <BioTeck> ty..brb
[08:33] <jamus> Pirate_Hunter:  u have boot manager app - maybe it will help u

[08:35] <zuhr1> but network manager can not detect ap
[08:35] <Daft_Punk> raulh, do "sudo ./installer.x86.run"
[08:35] <FAJALOU> brandonmpace:  reinstalled the stuff from envy; back to 1024*768 which is good lol
[08:35] <raulh> ./installer.x86.run: command not found
[08:35] <raulh> :|
[08:35] <Daft_Punk> raulh, is that the name of the file?
[08:35] <zuhr1> i can detect AP if using kismet
[08:36] <raulh> yes
[08:36] <Guest8287> Hai man.. any body there
[08:36] <jamus> brandonmpace:  mine is not LOL
[08:36] <brandonmpace> raulh: type sudo a+x /installer.x86.run
[08:36] <brandonmpace> raulh: the do the other command
[08:36] <nck> my ubuntu 8.04 cant connect to wifi network, while other win box can. few weeks ago, i still able to gain access, but not now. any idea?
[08:36] <raulh> nothing
[08:36] <Guest8287> ono wong indonesiane ra yo .. kok barat thok isine..
[08:37] <zuhr1> iono
[08:37] <Flannel> !id | Guest8287
[08:37] <zuhr1> iki wong indonesia
[08:37] <raulh> installer.x86.run = exact name of the file
[08:37] <brandonmpace> raulh: can you provide a link to the page where you got this run file?
[08:37] <raulh> tremulous
[08:37] <raulh> the linux stand alone
[08:37] <brandonmpace> nck: have you installed any updated since it worked?
[08:37] <jamus> nck: did u ''upgrade'' anything?
[08:38] <icedtea`> why is my face so itchy, who the hell gets an itchy face??
[08:38] <jamus> nck: like new kernel or something?
[08:38] <Daft_Punk> icedtea, ppl who dont wash their face?
[08:38] <Daft_Punk> idk
[08:38] <Flannel> icedtea`: Please take it elsewhere.
[08:38] <BioTeck> can i put the cd on a linux box and install it over the network on the mac????
[08:38] <brandonmpace> raulh: go to add/remove and look for tremulous
[08:39] <kevin__> P041NX, I still don't understand what /dev/sdx is (I'm thinking its a location...) much less how to find it and whats more, how to find it via a mount
[08:39] <brandonmpace> raulh: make sure you have the universe/multiverse enabled
[08:39] <geega> Hi.. i downloaded icons..
[08:39] <co_20_^_^> #jakarta
[08:39] <kevin__> P041NX, but i totally agree, a scrpt would be very helpful.
[08:39] <geega> how to replace the icon with new icons. what is the control for this
[08:40] <raulh> it's not there
[08:40] <Daft_Punk> is there a hotline to contact ubuntu support? how much does it cost? what kind of pay support is there for ubuntu?
[08:40] <raulh> :$
[08:40] <jamus> cu around guys
[08:40] <brandonmpace> kevin__: is your main hard disk sda? or hda?
[08:40] <jamus> arivechau
[08:40] <damnnicks> Hey peeps
[08:40] <Flannel> Daft_Punk: http://www.ubuntu.com/support/paid
[08:40] <Daft_Punk> ty
[08:40] <norbert108> ja
[08:40] <geega> Hi.. i downloaded icons.how to replace the icon with new icons. what is the control for this
[08:40] <brandonmpace> raulh: and you do have the extra software sources enabled?
[08:40] <damnnicks> Will Ubuntu throw me any quirks for using my raid array?
[08:41] <kevin__> brandonmpace, good question...is there an easy way to find out?
[08:41] <vgambit> what is the linux equivalent of ctrl alt del?
[08:41] <geega> do we have any icon manager in ubuntu
[08:41] <raulh> brandon... idk what that is
[08:41] <brandonmpace> kevin__: go to the folder /dev
[08:41] <brandonmpace> kevin__: tell me if there is and hda
[08:41] <zafle> system monitor
[08:41] <brandonmpace> an*
[08:41] <icedtea`> Flannel: seriously, give me a break
[08:41] <BioTeck> i dont know if i should take this as.. no we cant help ya or we dont know how to
[08:41] <zafle> ctrl alt backspace to restart
[08:42] <Daft_Punk> when is the release of intrepid?
[08:42] <zafle> oct 30
[08:42] <Flannel> brandonmpace: its likely sda instead of hda.
[08:42] <vgambit> is there any shortcut for closing unresponsive programs?
[08:42] <damnnicks> kill -9 <process id>
[08:42] <zafle> i just tested alpha 6 and decided to upgrade early
[08:42] <zafle> seems stable
[08:42] <Daft_Punk> what is the difference between ubuntu, edubuntu and kubuntu?
[08:42] <CentHOGG> vgambit: what's   your videocard? pleez
[08:42] <kevin__> brandonmpace, only a .udev/
[08:42] <raulh> can anyone help me download Tremulous? my add/remove dosn't contain it.
[08:42] <brandonmpace> raulh: go to system> administration and look for software sources
[08:43] <vgambit> well, the entire system was unresponsive
[08:43] <brandonmpace> Flannel: I know but it´s probably good to check
[08:43] <vgambit> CentHOGG some intel gma crap
[08:43] <Flannel> Daft_Punk: on what level?  Also, these sorts of questions might be better in #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:43] <damnnicks> the restart button?
[08:43] <icedtea`> vgambit: you could also do pkill processname
[08:43] <CentHOGG> vgambit: yeh i'm ati x1900xt
[08:43] <anusrape> damnicks: rap her but toy!
[08:43] <Flannel> Daft_Punk: On a package level, the default packages installed (you can move one to the other and v.v., etc).
[08:43] <Daft_Punk> Flannel, on the level of how xp is different than vista sort of thing
[08:43] <vgambit> icedtea I couldn't open anything
[08:43] <brandonmpace> vgambit:  right click on the panel in an empty spot. and click add to panel,  look for kill or something, it´s there
[08:43] <raulh> and when im here what do i do?
[08:43] <Flannel> Daft_Punk: Other than that, Kubuntu has KDE, Ubuntu has gnome, Edubuntu is an educational add on, on top of whatever you're using.
[08:44] <anusrape> the restart button does it all!
[08:44] <vgambit> I inserted a DVD while totem was open and my system just kinda put on the brakes
[08:44] <icedtea`> vgambit: did you try ctrl+alt+f1 to drop to a tty
[08:44] <anusrape> the restart button is the easy button@
[08:44] <vgambit> no
[08:44] <anusrape> !
[08:44] <Flannel> anusrape: Please change your nick
[08:44] <P041NX> kevin__:the /dev/sdx is the device name, it can be /dev/sda, /dev/sdb... /dev/sdx was for example. I have /dev/sda mounted to /media/DATA, so when i want to unmount /media/DATA, i lookup mount to find the /dev/xxx thing, and use that to umount and hdparm -y ... hope that helps
[08:44] <anusrape> find the commaneds
[08:44] <Daft_Punk> Flannel, so are the main differences just visual and default repos? because you can install KDE packages on ubuntu etc... and im guessing the edubuntu has more resources for education?
[08:44] <damnnicks> hehe
[08:44] <vgambit> it seems to be fine now, but I would like to know for the future
[08:44] <brandonmpace> vgambit: ctrl alt backspace
[08:44] <anusrape> vgambit: yes
[08:44] <anusrape> vgambit: there is no futures
[08:44] <Flannel> Daft_Punk: the repositories are the same.  The default packages installed are different.
[08:45] <vgambit> brandonmpace is there a way to simply close the offending programs?
[08:45] <icedtea`> vgambit: thats a good last resort if the gui stops responding
[08:45] <anusrape> vgambit: make peace or die trying
[08:45] <brandonmpace> vgambit:  yes
[08:45] <HappyHater> xkill
[08:45] <vgambit> I mean when the entire system is unresponsive
[08:45] <Daft_Punk> Flannel, so for someone that doesnt know a lot about linux in general, what should you suggest to start with between ubuntu/kubuntu
[08:45] <Flannel> Daft_Punk: Edubuntu is an add on, and yes, it contains educational software (of course, its available for regular installs too, you don't have to use Edubuntu to install the peices)
[08:45] <brandonmpace> vgambit:  go to system>administration> system monitor
[08:45] <damnnicks> Srsly tho, will my raid array work in ubuntu without any haggling? I had to slip drivers to xp, but vista used it spot on wiht no drivers
[08:45] <anusrape> vgambit: i know not what has happened until now -bafdish
[08:45] <vgambit> everything was lagging quite a bit and I couldn't really do anything
[08:45] <Flannel> Daft_Punk: Ubuntu is a good way of starting
[08:45] <damnnicks> It's the intel ich9r
[08:45] <raulh> i still can't download tremulous from add/remove
[08:46] <Daft_Punk> Flannel, ok thx...
[08:46] <brandonmpace> vgambit: if you go to the processes tab and see the proccess taking all your cpu. then kill it
[08:46] <brandonmpace> vgambit: right click
[08:46] <zafle> sudo apt-get tremulous?
[08:46] <P041NX> kevin__: cat /proc
[08:46] <zafle> trying hitting tab after typing that
[08:46] <brandonmpace> raulh: go to http://www.medibuntu.org/
[08:46] <kevin__> P041NX, yea, that clears it up -- i always thought that referred to only the main HD on which my O.S. runs. I didn't know my hot-pluggable removable HD fell into that category.
[08:46] <zafle> google for a repo for tremulous
[08:46] <P041NX> kevin__: cat /proc/mounts |awk '{if( $2 == "/media/DATA"){print $1}}' this gets the device name you need to preform the umount and hdparm
[08:47] <brandonmpace> raulh: and see if they have it in their repo
[08:47] <ggeecko> anyone here use owa with evolution-exchange
[08:47] <CORE-X> Guys, what 2 do, if my ubuntu recognizes my external hdd usb drive, but gives error when i try to open it?
[08:47] <Daft_Punk> raulh, open terminal and do "sudo apt-get install tremulous"
[08:47] <icedtea`> CORE-X: whats the error?
[08:47] <znik> brandonmpace if i leave it switched on will it detect wifi?? but when i do conneect to a network the led becomes stable!
[08:47] <CORE-X> w8
[08:47] <raulh> thank you draft
[08:48] <brandonmpace> znik: the led works in linux?
[08:48] <Guest3790> wah boso inggrise ngewes... podo kursus neng endi yo...
[08:48] <BioTeck> is this the official ubuntu support channel?
[08:48] <zafle> http://tremulous.net/files/ try just downloading it
[08:48] <sfer3> !offtopic | anusrape
[08:48] <raulh> ﻿(12:48:10 AM) zafle: http://tremulous.net/files/ try just downloading it
[08:48] <Ohkie> hi i got a problem that i might be better off asking somewhere else buti  thought id ask quickly here first.... im trying to configure this theme for gnome ( http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Shiki-Colors?content=86717 ) , but while the main menu along the top turns black, the menus that drop down are still grey..... and there seems to be other irregularities ..... anyone got a idea what might cause that?
[08:48] <raulh> i did
[08:48] <raulh> its a .run file
[08:48] <kevin__> P041NX, I found this in that listing: /dev/sdb1 /media/WD\040Passport fuseblk rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,relatime,user_id=0,group_id=0,allow_other 0 0
[08:48] <P041NX> kevin__: something like HD_TO_REMOVE=`cat /proc/mounts |awk '{if( $2 == "/media/DATA"){print $1}}'`; umount ${HD_TO_REMOVE} ; hdparm -y ${HD_TO_REMOVE} should do it in once
[08:48] <raulh> i couldn't open it :(
[08:48] <sfer3> Guh, oops, IRC client was scrolled up....
[08:48] <znik> brandonmpace lets talk on IM
[08:49] <Guest3790> iki neng jowo opo neng enggris???.... hallo ono wong jowone ra yo... aku kesepian nih...
[08:49] <Flannel> !id | Guest3790
[08:49] <CORE-X> well my ubuntu is in my language, so it would sond like - cannot add source
[08:49] <FAJALOU> brandonmpace:  i ended up purging envyng, fell back ont the original, which works.
[08:49] <P041NX> kevin__: and change the /media/DATA part to where you always mount the partition to
[08:49] <FAJALOU> wifi is still acting up a little though ....
[08:49] <brandonmpace> znik: k which one
[08:49] <BioTeck> so now my qstion to you bot is.. does Ubuntu support mac with no cdrom?
[08:49] <brandonmpace> FAJALOU: well at least it works :)
[08:49] <Daft_Punk> raulh, did that work for the game install?
[08:49] <Ohkie> anyone? :)
[08:49] <raulh> downloading right now
[08:50] <raulh> what are the chances of my treo bein detected by linux :O?
[08:50] <geodome> vgambit - it is the same
[08:50] <FAJALOU> brandonmpace:  ya i am on the computer... i guess i'll just spruce it up w/ emerald, and minimal compiz w/e lol.  but wifi is having difficulty connecting to my personal network; it's connecting to a different one -.-
[08:50] <Daft_Punk> tremulous is 100mb so it might take a while to install :o
[08:50] <brandonmpace> raulh: actually palms can be supported
[08:50] <raulh> takes me like 4mins :$
[08:50] <raulh> ok thanks brandon
[08:50] <brandonmpace> raulh: add/remove and in the search type palm
[08:51] <wx9j_> how do I get my desktop icons back ????
[08:51] <brandonmpace> i think
[08:51] <raulh> tyvm
[08:51] <P041NX> kevin__: if /media/WD\040Passport is the path you always mat your external hdd, then yes, /dev/sdb1 it what you use. remenber, the /dev/sdxx part changes by the order you plug in the usb device, so always obtain it from mount
[08:51] <brandonmpace> raulh: yw
[08:51] <icedtea`> wx9j_: open up a terminal and type nautilus
[08:51] <CORE-X> its cannot mount volume error :(
[08:51] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> ok, woooo, playing with compiz
[08:51] <Guest3790> iki neng indonesia opo neng enggrish.. kok podo ngoceh bhs inggris kebeh..
[08:52] <Daft_Punk> question: as me being a support technician for hardware and windows based operating systems, I had the sense to install linux to learn more about it... my question is, why is it so addictive? I haven't slept in days...
[08:52] <brandonmpace> Yekyaa[Ubuntu]: always fun ;)
[08:52] <CentHOGG> fuck
[08:52] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> i just spent the last 2 hours and i'm still not fully satisfied but i'm thoroughly impressed
[08:52] <znik> brandonmpace on this irc itself !
[08:52] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> forget vista and aero man
[08:52] <kevin__> P041NX, sdb1 refers to the mounting point?
[08:52] <Daft_Punk> !wtf | CentHOGG
[08:52] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> i've got about every plugin running that wouldn't give me a headache and there's still more left :)
[08:52] <brandonmpace> Daft_Punk: I´ve been doing this for four years and still don´t know lol
[08:52] <CentHOGG> engrish?
[08:52] <wx9j_> icedtea, it said cannot be used now due to unexpcted error
[08:52] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> i need that Dodge plugin though lol
[08:53] <P041NX> kevin__:sdb1 can be read as scsi disk b on partition 1, and yes, that gets mounted to a path
[08:53] <sullyva86> Anybody know how to turn two ext3 partitions into one?
[08:53] <P041NX> kevin__:a usb disk normaly get emulated as a scsi disk
[08:53] <Flannel> sullyva86: LVM
[08:53] <raulh> oh haha brandon
[08:53] <zafle> gparted
[08:53] <Guest3790> malangnya nasibku.. aku tersesat..
[08:53] <raulh> 8.0.4 already has gnome pilot (palm) program
[08:53] <Flannel> Guest3790: /join #ubuntu-id
[08:53] <sullyva86> zafle: I tried that it just allows me to shrink them not combine.
[08:54] <kevin__> P041NX, are you a hardware guru? you seem to know so much!!!
[08:54] <P041NX> kevin__: on linux, you can map a partition by the name it's given, by using the -U option on mount
[08:54] <sullyva86> Flannel: What's LVM?
[08:54] <P041NX> kevin__:just a user.
[08:54] <Flannel> sullyva86: It gives you te abilities to abstract away your disks.
[08:54] <case^> whats the command to view mounted drives
[08:54] <case^> ?
[08:55] <icedtea`> Guest3790: Ohayoo gozaimasu!
[08:55] <zafle> try moving all the data to one partition then resize the other one down till you get it all over to one the  delete the second partition
[08:55] <icedtea`> maybe he'll understand japanese better :D
[08:55] <sullyva86> flannel:wow sounds cool from this post i just read but does that mean i have to reformat them as lvm or something?
[08:55] <Akuma34> hello, I'm trying to connect to my own personal protected wifi with ubuntu, however it does not want to get connected
[08:56] <P041NX> kevin__: for what you want to accomplish, you may want to write a script. 1 to map a external drive to the same path every time you reboot. This can be done by ext2label to give the partition a name.
[08:56] <Akuma34> I've tried it with unprotected networks and it works fine
[08:56] <Flannel> sullyva86: Unfortunately, yeah.  If youre looking to do it now, can I suggest moving /home to the second drive, and keeping the other one for your system
[08:56] <Akuma34> I'm using wicd btw
[08:57] <P041NX> kevin__:once the partition has a name, you can look it up from the name, and won't have to go into the can of worms situation you were into.
[08:57] <zafle> "If the partitions are contiguous, just back them up, delete all three
[08:57] <zafle> partitions, create a new partition using all the space, create top-level
[08:57] <zafle> directories as needed, and then restore from the backup tape." http://www.usenet-forums.com/archive/index.php/t-74539.html
[08:57] <FloodBot2> zafle: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[08:58] <jin_> what is the package name called to fix the sound in flash?
[08:58] <sullyva86> Flannel: moving it to the 2nd partition why? Then won't i have to change the path in all my apps?
[08:58] <case^> flash util something
[08:59] <Flannel> sullyva86: Nope.  Partitions are completely abstracted away, so you wont even know the difference (as far as usage is concerned)
[08:59] <Ohkie> can anyone tell me how to check if the "murrine" gdk engine is installed/running?
[08:59] <The-Compiler> !who | case^
[08:59] <P041NX> mount -L ${name-fo-partition} /path/to/mounit-it will allow you to mount the partiotn
[08:59] <kevin__> P041NX, okay, I've documented all your advice, now I need to go over it and learn how to apply it. thanks for your help.
[08:59] <Flannel> !home | sullyva86
[08:59] <P041NX> kevin__: no problem.
[08:59] <case^> jin: just double checking package name
[09:00] <P041NX> kevin__: Need any other info?
[09:00] <Flannel> sullyva86: That page walks ou through it, but assumes you're moving to a separate partition (on the same drive) instead of a partition on another drive.
[09:00] <sullyva86> Flannel: So since nothing is on the 2nd partiton i just reformat that partition as lvm?
[09:00] <sullyva86> Flannel: It is the same drive
[09:00] <Flannel> sullyva86: Nah, LVM will only work if both are lvm-ized
[09:00] <Flannel> sullyva86: ah.  !  You can just remove the second partition and expand your current partition
[09:00] <zafle> yes
[09:00] <sullyva86> Flannel: So I'm f'ed then I should just mount it?
[09:01] <kevin__> P041NX, yea...what you're telling me is pretty much greek to me, but perhaps when I'm a better linux/unix/ubuntu user, it will all be a piece of cake. No that abuot covers my problem. (and if all else fails I can always turn my cpu off...then unplug the device hehe).
[09:01] <zafle> you cant resize a mounted partition
[09:01] <Flannel> sullyva86: What?  no.  Just... boot a liveCD and expand your linux partition.
[09:01] <sullyva86> Flannel: I tried to do that before in gparted. I had a bunch of freespace from shrinking my vista partition but couldn't figure it out lol
[09:01] <icedtea`> anybody here have experience with samba and AD with sites configured?
[09:01] <zafle> Flannel: i'd use a livecd
[09:01] <Flannel> sullyva86: Feel free to ask the channel for help when you need it.  But that would be your best course of action.
[09:02] <Flannel> zafle: That's what I said.
[09:02] <sullyva86> Flannel: It would only allow me to create a new one or shrink my current ubuntu partition.
[09:02] <case^> jin: libflashsupport
[09:02] <zafle> http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[09:02] <Flannel> sullyva86: you first have to delete the other one.  Then expand
[09:02] <P041NX> kevin__:yea, true. I had to learn this stuff because I was building a large file server, and wanted to turn off my external usb disk when i'm not using the fileserver.
[09:02] <zafle> Flannel: you could also just backup your drive and start fresh with 8.10 :)
[09:03] <ozkelligirl> what drogram can i use to play "AVI " movies on ubuntu?
[09:03] <zafle> totem
[09:03] <Flannel> zafle: Except that wouldn't be helpful.  Please be helpful in this channel.
[09:03] <wariskampar> when i click Visualisation in Rhythmbox, my Hardy Heron freeze beyond repair
[09:03] <_LiNuX_> hi to all
[09:03] <wariskampar> can anyone help me sorting out this problem
[09:03] <sullyva86> Flannel: Is there some other button i pick for expand. Cuz it was just freespace and wouldn't let me expand the ubuntu partition for some reason.
[09:03] <Guest3790> ono wong indonesiane ora yo... kok podo ngewes enggris kabeh...
[09:03] <brandonmpace> P041NX: you do not need the -L after mount necessarily
[09:03] <Flannel> !english | Guest3790
[09:04] <jignesh> hiiiiiii to every one ...................
[09:04] <P041NX> kevin__::i give all my disks a name, and keep it pluged into the usb. using mount/umount vit tha script to spinup/spindown
[09:04] <kevin__> P041NX, this was one of the reasons I made the switch from Windows to Linux -- much of the usefulness of the kernal is given to the user (hence the "sudo" command).
[09:04] <ozkelligirl> what program can i use to play "AVI" movies?
[09:04] <kevin__> P041NX, yea, it makes a lot of sense to do it that way.
[09:04] <Flannel> sullyva86: well, you can only expand ext3 partitions backwards, not fowards directly.  But gparted should be able to do the workarounds automatically to resize whereever.
[09:04] <_LiNuX_> i have sownload and install Downloader for X but when i put the rapidshare download links then nothing happen....Is any other program like jdownloader UsDowloader..?
[09:04] <HappyHater> ozkelligirl, vlc media player plays about everything
[09:05] <P041NX> brandonmpace: the -L is there because I mount/unmount all usb external diskas manually via the name.
[09:05] <ozkelligirl> where can i get it?
[09:05] <vgambit> how do I enable DMA?
[09:05] <HappyHater> it's in the repos, synaptic or apt-get
[09:05] <Politics> What are some network manager alternatives to knetworkmanager
[09:05] <The-Compiler> !who | ozkelligirl and HappyHater
[09:05] <ozkelligirl> ok
[09:05] <vgambit> I'm typing sudo hdparm /dev/hdc but it says no such file or directory
[09:05] <Politics> (For use in KDE, obviously)
[09:05] <Mr_Fixit> what can i use to convert .wav to ,mp3?
[09:05] <brandonmpace> P041NX: ah I just thought you know maybe make it as easy as possible for kev
[09:06] <indian_munnda> anyone plz tell me why my synaptic is not showing vmware package?? Isn't it available in the repositories???
[09:06] <The-Compiler> Mr_Fixit: soundconverter or soundkonverter, both in the repos
[09:06] <sullyva86> Flannel: I read something about having to move the partition in front of the free space be able to expand it so I guess i'll try that thanks.
[09:06] <HappyHater> The-Compiler, I hit tab so you'd know I was telling you piss off
[09:06] <Mr_Fixit> yea cool thanks
[09:06] <badfish> check
[09:06] <The-Compiler> !language | HappyHater (:D)
[09:06] <brandonmpace> vgambit: if it says that then it´s not there lol. what are you trying to do?
[09:06] <Flannel> !vmware | indian_munnda
[09:06] <kevin__> brandonmpace, hehe thanks for lookin out
[09:07] <wariskampar> Hello, how do I troubleshoot Visualization Problem in Rhythmbox
[09:07] <indian_munnda> Flannel: i have hardy installed in my PC, so it means i can't install vmware??
[09:07] <P041NX> brandonmpace: kevin was lost because he couldn't find the disk path. I know i had the same problem before, and the solution was giving the disk partition a name
[09:07] <Flannel> indian_munnda: I didn't say that.  Read the wiki page.
[09:07] <vgambit> play a region 2 dvd on my region 1 laptop dvd drive
[09:07] <zafle> wariskampar: what is the problem with visuals
[09:07] <vgambit> I changed the region to 2 using regionset but it's still wonky
[09:07] <wariskampar> when i press the button, my system will freeze
[09:07] <vgambit> it only plays in VLC, and doesn't display any video once I select a title
[09:08] <eramo> hi.. where to put a script to get it executed when xorg starts? is it in /etc/X11/xinit ?
[09:08] <vgambit> and the audio is really jerky
[09:08] <P041NX> brandonmpace: once there is a name to the partition, it can be looked up pritty easly
[09:08] <zafle> wariskampar: what visual? mine used to do that with goom on fullscreen
[09:08] <zafle> wariskampar: try turning size down
[09:08] <Mr_Fixit> The-Compiler, for soundconverter what do i need to add for mp3 encoder?
[09:08] <wariskampar> i can not even fire up the visual
[09:08] <The-Compiler> Mr_Fixit: lame i think
[09:08] <wariskampar> maybe some component missing
[09:09] <rebel_kid> is there a way to set all files in a folder as root write only, anyone read, but still be able to save files, im using this for version control to keep myself from overwriting.
[09:09] <wariskampar> because I just uninstall amarok
[09:09] <zafle> wariskampar: strange. try a reinstall? and try libvisual  pacakge?
[09:09] <wariskampar> libvisual package? in Sypnatic?
[09:09] <Flannel> rebel_kid: You'd remove the file's write permissions, but keep write permissions on the folder.
[09:09] <brandonmpace> vgambit:  did you install medibuntu?    if so,  install libdvdcss2 from synaptic
[09:10] <vgambit> I did both
[09:10] <rebel_kid> flannel, then i would have to set the permissions everytime i saved a new file right?
[09:10] <jignesh> i a not able to connect to internet using command "sudo dsl-provider"....... every time  i have to reconfigure using command '' sudo pppoeconf".....what might be the problem?
[09:10] <Flannel> rebel_kid: Everytime you created a new file.
[09:10] <jignesh> '
[09:10] <Mr_Fixit> The-Compiler, actually it was gstreamer something.. but thanks anyways..
[09:10] <rebel_kid> flannel, guess that will have to do
[09:10] <badfish> rebel_kid: sudo does it all
[09:11] <rebel_kid> badfish: ???
[09:11] <Flannel> badfish: Please be helpful
[09:11] <P041NX> rebel_kid: you might want to read up on unionfs or aufs to do what you want, a copy-on-write with writeprotect on the lower parts.
[09:11] <badfish> if you have gnome you don't have to set anything EVERY time you do something
[09:11] <wariskampar> @zafle, libvisual was already installed in my system
[09:12] <rebel_kid> p041nx: ok, thanks for now i think i will just stick to slapping myself everytime i overwrite my old versions :)
[09:12] <zafle> wariskampar: oh nvm... try a reinstall of rhythmbox.
[09:12] <badfish> there's a text editor that remembers commands
[09:12] <zafle> wariskampar: via right  click in synaptic
[09:13] <badfish> you don't even need a control key
[09:13] <wariskampar> if I reinstall do my playlist effected
[09:13] <wariskampar> i mean does it be erased all together
[09:13] <badfish> depends on what drive it's on and how it's formatted
[09:13] <P041NX> rebel_kid:unionfs is installed default on ubuntu, It's what I use, and not that hard to setup.
[09:13] <badfish> was it there when you installed ubuntu?
[09:14] <badfish> cuz if it was, it'll be there afterware
[09:14] <badfish> afterward*
[09:14] <zafle> wariskampar: i'm not sure but they  should be saved in you config file. save them to desktop to be sure
[09:14] <jignesh> ﻿ i am not able to connect to internet using command "sudo dsl-provider"....... every time  i have to reconfigure using command '' sudo pppoeconf".....what might be the problem?
[09:14] <Flannel> wariskampar: Do you have a separate homedir?
[09:14] <badfish> jignesh: can you connect using the livecd?
[09:14] <badfish> firefox, livecd?
[09:14] <wariskampar> @flannel, yup
[09:15] <raulh> http://treefort.icculus.org/armyops/armyops250-linux.run
[09:15] <raulh> is the game
[09:15] <q0s> hey guys. did anyone noticed really slow performance of vino too?
[09:15] <raulh> but it's text format to me
[09:15] <raulh> how come?
[09:15] <Flannel> wariskampar: Then all of your personal files (including playlist, I assume) will be in there, and you'll be fine.
[09:15] <indian_munnda> Flannel: is there any substitute available for vmware in Hardy??
[09:15] <pan32> join #wicd
[09:15] <wariskampar> ok..i'll re-install now then
[09:15] <pan32> sorry
[09:15] <Flannel> indian_munnda: You'd have to read that wiki page and find out. I don't know.
[09:15] <zafle> wariskampar: ok let me know if that helps
[09:15] <Fargh_> nick nootjes
[09:16] <HappyHater> indian_munnda, virtualbox
[09:16] <nootjes> anyone around +
[09:16] <nootjes> ?

[09:16] <nootjes> im running kubuntu and firefox is costantly using 50% CPU
[09:16] <nootjes> dont think thats normal
[09:16] <nootjes> even with no webpages
[09:17] <mohan34u> nootjes: which version of firefox?
[09:17] <indian_munnda> HappyHater: thanks dude, thank you very much. And you too Flannel thanks.
[09:17] <nootjes> 3.0.1
[09:17] <Mr_Fixit> The-Compiler, gstreamer-lame even lmao
[09:17] <nootjes> nootjes  7306 58.4  7.9 262452 123200 ?       Rl   08:48  50:31 /usr/lib/firefox-3.0.1/firefox
[09:17] <zafle> wariskampar: btw there was a bug report  for a similar issue on launchpad so this may just be a  bug that hasnt been resolved
[09:17] <mohan34u> nootjes: did you installed any add-on?
[09:17] <The-Compiler> Mr_Fixit: hehe ^^
[09:17] <nootjes> yes, greasemonkey
[09:18] <nootjes> i can disable it .. dont htink its causing it.  one sec
[09:18] <mohan34u> nootjes: try to reinstall that..
[09:18] <mohan34u> nootjes: or take out and check..
[09:18] <nootjes> disable not enough ?
[09:19] <mohan34u> nootjes: I don't know..just .. try..
[09:19] <nootjes> disabled them, restarted ... same CPU hog
[09:19] <happyhater69> it's never enough
[09:19] <mohan34u> nootjes: when this problem appeared?
[09:20] <nootjes> not sure, never paid attention to it before
[09:20] <mathijs> Hi, anyone here with some knowledge about gpl2 and gpl3 ?
[09:21] <nootjes> i removed all addons and still its using 58%
[09:21] <mohan34u> nootjes; any plug-ins causing the problem? may be java or flash?
[09:21] <Flannel> mathijs: questions regarding licensing are probably best asked in #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:21] <HappyHater> be original nago
[09:21] <magnetron> mathijs, is this a support question? if not, please ask me in #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:21] <nootjes> where can I disable those, mohan34u ?
[09:22] <mathijs> Flannel: thanks, I'll look there
[09:22] <Nece228> hello people
[09:22] <mohan34u> nootjes: 1 sec..
[09:22] <jignesh> ﻿ badfish:not tried that....but i have already installed ubuntu8.4 hardy hearon...
[09:22] <Nece228> i still think that kde 3.5 is better than kde 4.1
[09:23] <Mr_Fixit> i'm not a big fan of KDE
[09:23] <Flannel> Nece228: Discussions belong in #ubuntu-offtopic, this is for support, thanks.
[09:23] <Mr_Fixit> reminds me too much of a work station and not a PC
[09:23] <zafle> i think kde 4 has huge potential
[09:23] <zafle> just  needs time to develop
[09:23] <Nece228> so can you please release two releases - kubuntu with kde 4.1 (by default) and kubuntu with kde 3.5?
[09:23] <happyhater69> jig.flan: gives no damnz
[09:23] <Nece228> just like kubuntu 8.04 had kubuntu kde4 and kubuntu
[09:23] <mohan34u> noutjes: just disable them and check? I don't think you need to remove..
[09:24] <Flannel> Nece228: That'd be a #kubuntu topic, or #kubuntu-kde4
[09:24] <vgambit> does anyone else have any idea of how to fix my dvd problem?
[09:24] <The-Compiler> Nece228: we aren't developers ;) We are just volunteers and useres ;)
[09:24] <mohan34u> nootjes: They are in tools->add-ons
[09:24] <nootjes> disable what mohan34u ?
[09:24] <happyhater69> numbers are nada
[09:24] <q0s> did anyone noticed really slow performance of vino too?
[09:24] <zafle> it would be cool if during the install kubuntu had a checkbox and you could chose which one
[09:24] <The-Compiler> vgambit: not w/o any problem :D
[09:24] <nootjes> i uninstalled them already mohan34u ... no help
[09:24] <vgambit> I get no video, for the most part, and the audio is jerky
[09:25] <vgambit> the only video that loads is the title screen in VLC; all other media players just crash
[09:25] <zafle> vgambit: whats the problem exactly?
[09:25] <wx9j_> file browser will not respond, reopens each time I kill it
[09:25] <happyhater69> call me out on .edu
[09:25] <P041NX> I need help setting up the usbfs. would anyone help me?
[09:25] <Nece228> oops sorry
[09:25] <rebel_kid> somehow my default working folder was set to /home/justin when running python scripts, i thought that if i ran a script from /home/justin/Desktop the working folder would become /home/justin/Desktop while running the script
[09:25] <Nece228> i thinked its kubuntu channel
[09:25] <zafle> vgambit: get libdvdcss2 and the medibuntu ugly packages and you should be set
[09:25] <vgambit> I did
[09:25] <happyhater69> cuz you wont' know me til i come back
[09:25] <zafle> google for dvd ubuntu
[09:26] <happyhater69> til the third time i make it obvious
[09:26] <mohan34u> nootjes: whats your homepage?
[09:26] <zafle> there are a lot of guides that are easier to follow then asking this forum imo
[09:26] <vgambit> I did
[09:26] <mohan34u> nootjes: is your homepage have lot of flash contents?
[09:26] <zafle> vgambit: try  it with  vlc
[09:26] <nootjes> about:blank
[09:26] <chronographer> anyone good with python and matplotlib ?
[09:27] <zafle> vlc works dif then  totem
[09:27] <vgambit> vlc loads the menu, but when I select an episode, it plays choppy audio and cuts out the video completely
[09:27] <mohan34u> nootjes: a somple way is, try to reinstall firefox..
[09:27] <P041NX> got problem where the usbfs is not exporting the dievices. the ./devices file is showing it correctly, just the export not working
[09:27] <zafle> vgambit: so it  works just not well
[09:27] <nootjes> ok
[09:27] <mohan34u> nootjes: a hard way is backtrack with 'gdb'
[09:27] <Ab3L> hello
[09:27] <vgambit> I wouldn't call that working
[09:27] <nootjes> never heard of that
[09:28] <nootjes> i'll reinstall
[09:28] <vgambit> working would be totem not crashing when I insert a dvd
[09:28] <nananuu> does any one know what I must write in firefox the address bar to get to all firefox system files?
[09:28] <P041NX> about:config
[09:28] <nananuu> thanx :)
[09:28] <goldmetal> is wine easy to use?
[09:28] <mohan34u> nootjes: after uninstall.. remove .mozilla in your home directory..
[09:28] <zafle> vgambit: thats strange... i'm upgrading to 8.10 at the moment or id check what files  i have
[09:29] <mohan34u> nootjes: careful.. don't remove if you use thunderbird..
[09:29] <zafle> vgambit: did you check the guides  on ubuntuforums?
[09:29] <P041NX> goldmatal:not really. better check if it's worth the effort, by the wine hq for list of apps that run on wine, before proceeding
[09:29] <vgambit> checking now
[09:29] <chalcedony> mohadib: my husband has a problem with thunderbird not deleting the junkmail folder when he clicks on it (kubuntu 8.4)
[09:30] <zafle> ok.. i'll  look aswell.. i might have to  restart the comp first to complete the upgrade but i'll look after that

[09:31] <semester3> Hello
[09:31] <semester3> How r u?
[09:31] <P041NX> BunTai: use sudo when running apt-get
[09:31] <CORE-X> where to write useradd comands??
[09:31] <CORE-X> :/
[09:31] <CORE-X> i mean the code
[09:31] <Flannel> CORE-X: a terminal
[09:31] <BunTai> P041NX: it will be like this...
[09:31] <CORE-X> ok
[09:31] <lakalaka> how .. how can i clear the system cache.. local cache.. system font cache, swap files.. reset lunch services. etc
[09:31] <lakalaka> is there an easy app? or something?
[09:31] <P041NX> BunTai:and you can not run synaptec and apt-get at the same time. close synaptec
[09:32] <chronographer> gold: wine is fine, as long as the program works in the first place!
[09:32] <zafle> la: sudo and manualy do it? not sure why youd want to
[09:32] <chronographer> If your program doesn't work, don't bother with it
[09:32] <BunTai> P041NX: http://paste.ubuntu.com/48510/
[09:32] <BunTai> no i didnt
[09:32] <nootjes> should it be 0 CPU  when I dont use firefox but firefox is open ?
[09:32] <nootjes> with about:blank
[09:33] <zafle> nootjes: i  doubt your system will be at zero
[09:33] <zafle> nootjes: there is a lot of background processes
[09:33] <nootjes> i mean firefox
[09:33] <bungaznan> @zafle, the solution not working
[09:33] <airtonix> nootjes, you will probably find that its flucuating very quickly between 0 and 2 or 3 percent
[09:34] <nootjes> its 4% now
[09:34] <airtonix> nootjes, too fast for any meter your using to visualise
[09:34] <nootjes> after reinstall
[09:34] <airtonix> nootjes, there ya go
[09:34] <bungaznan> when i run rhythmbox in Terminal i got this message when I play song
[09:34] <P041NX> BunTai: Seems like another app is using the file. check what's opening/loccking the file via lsof |grep lock
[09:34] <BunTai> P041NX: how
[09:34] <zafle> bungaznan: what does grep say?
[09:34] <BunTai> ?
[09:34] <BunTai> teach me
[09:34] <bungaznan> Rhythmbox-Message: Missing plugin: gstreamer|0.10|rhythmbox-metadata|application/x-rar decoder|decoder-application/x-rar
[09:34] <bungaznan> no application found
[09:34] <bungaznan> Rhythmbox-Message: No installation candidate for missing plugins found.
[09:34] <CORE-X> why, when [sudo] asks for pass, i cannot write, im writeing in terminal, but it is not responding :(
[09:34] <Flannel> CORE-X: it is.  It just doesn't output anything.  That's normal.
[09:35] <rconan> anyone had any luck using a Marvell 88se6121 in ubuntu?
[09:35] <zafle> bungaznan: did you reinstall it? or d elete it?
[09:35] <P041NX> BunTai: lsof |grep apt
[09:35] <BunTai> P041NX: ok
[09:35] <ghostlines> hi all
[09:35] <nootjes> i shouldn't have remove the .mozilla folder :)
[09:35] <nootjes> now I lost all my passwords
[09:35] <bungaznan> Re-install (wipe out the config file also)
[09:36] <BunTai> P041NX: after that?
[09:36] <BunTai> i can update?
[09:36] <P041NX> BunTai:what does it show?
[09:36] <ghostlines> for home usage someone wouldn't notice the difference between a 100mb lan and 1gb lan right?
[09:36] <BunTai> ok wait
[09:36] <zafle> bungaznan: ouch... i;ll search around i need to restart my comp first for my update brb
[09:36] <BunTai> P041NX: http://paste.ubuntu.com/48511/
[09:37] <ghostlines> no one can transfers at full 100mb lan speed anyway our harddrives can't even write that fast
[09:37] <mohan34u> nootjes: what you said? you lost your passwords..? what passwords?
[09:37] <chronographer> ghostlines: I agree, its movies over wireless which you do notice I reckon
[09:37] <mohan34u> nootjes: did you rm your .mozilla?
[09:37] <yavapai> i have no ext3 usb drive with 2.6.27-3 still works with 2.6.25
[09:38] <BunTai> P041NX: then..i can update now?
[09:38] <CORE-X> ok, guys, what to write to do the force mount usb external hdd drive??
[09:38] <brandonmpace> lol ghostlines I bet there are servers out there that can do it
[09:39] <P041NX> BunTai: you've got apt running.. you might want to till that apt ior wait untill it finishes.
[09:39] <BunTai> P041NX: ok...ive done update
[09:39] <BunTai> thnx
[09:40] <chalcedony> i copied .xcat2 to .xchat3 in order to create another completely different instance of my irc client.. but it did not make another xchat icon in the dropdown menu, to start it. I can make another internet icon, but not the submenu icons. How can i start the second xchat?
[09:40] <chalcedony> tuna-fish: *hugs*
[09:40] <P041NX> BunTai: apt can only run a single instance, so  if yow want to run multiple apt-get at the same time there really is no good way to do so.
[09:40] <P041NX> BunTai:  apt-get install {what-ever-package}
[09:41] <case^> chalcedony: pidgin can do multiple irc servers without messing about
[09:41] <brandonmpace> P041NX: lol all you have to do to run ¨multiple¨ apt-gets it     apt-get package package        etc
[09:41] <P041NX> BunTai: hope that helps
[09:41] <brandonmpace> just add em on
[09:42] <chalcedony> case^: so can xchat .. but *not* if you want it to auto join a bunch of totally different channels with two instance on the same network.
[09:42] <brandonmpace> oh lol just saw the context
[09:42] <P041NX> brandonmpace: no, he was trying to run apt-get while another apt-get was still running
[09:42] <P041NX> brandonmpace: from file locking he had problems.
[09:42] <brandonmpace> ^ lol I saw, sorry :)
[09:43] <P041NX> brandonmpace: and yes, specifying multiple packages after the command is well documented
[09:43] <chalcedony> tuna: if you aren't somebody i know i didn't mean to be fresh
[09:45] <CORE-X> how to add user to the "disk" group?
[09:45] <yavapai> has anybody tried those free satellite tv on your pc software not dvb-s but streaming them
[09:46] <yavapai> i tried some in wine with no luck
[09:48] <sunru> I would like to install ubuntu server within a chroot, i have installed via boot cd before and would like the same options any tips?
[09:48] <icedtea`> CORE-X: edit /etc/group
[09:48] <vgambit> well, I fixed my problem by downgrading to an older version of libdvdcss
[09:48] <bungaznan> anyone experience any problem with Visualisation in Rhythmbox
[09:49] <bungaznan> like freezing the system
[09:49] <vgambit> if anyone else has this problem, tell them to search for "enable dvd playback in linux" on lifehacker
[09:49] <brandonmpace> CORE-X: or you can just go to System>administration>users groups
[09:49] <case^> bungaznan: (use audacious)
[09:50] <brandonmpace> vgambit: sometimes newer isn´t always better ;)
[09:50] <P041NX> CORE-X: or usermod -a ${group}
[09:50] <CORE-X> thanks, i made it, did the force mount ^^

[09:58] <zebralinux> Minty95,  thats a tricky one
[09:58] <zafle> bungaznan: which visual are you using? oinksie is known to crash happens on 8.04 and 8.10 with my comp
[09:58] <brandonmpace> ganesh: that might help.. have you restarted after this problem came up?
[09:58] <P041NX> Gnea:Yes restarted, acpi is off, lsusb does not show, but lsusb -t shows the tree
[09:58] <zebralinux> Minty95,  I did It through console
[09:58] <Minty95> zebralinux, I know there is a menu somewher and all I have to is tick the show option
[09:59] <P041NX> Gnea: Changed thing is that i've attached a usb scanner, Epson GT7600
[09:59] <ganesh> brandonmpace: yes

[09:59] <karex> HI, what's difference between openoffice with JRE and without JRE?
[09:59] <zebralinux> Minty95,  I tried to drag it out to Desktop
[09:59] <P041NX> Gnea:the /proc/bus/usb/devices is there, showing all devices.
[10:00] <chalcedony> karex: Java Runtime Environment it's not going to do some of the things it might do with it
[10:00] <P041NX> Gnea:But it is not exported to /proc/bus/usb/00X
[10:00] <zebralinux> Minty95,  well tell me if you dont succed
[10:00] <pan_> thx
[10:00] <c0re-X> guys, how to add that 3dbox effect in ubuntu?
[10:00] <pan_> appreciate it
[10:00] <chalcedony> karex: try in #openoffice.org
[10:00] <zebralinux> Minty95,  i know another way
[10:00] <Gnea> P041NX: why turn acpi off?
[10:00] <zafle> corex: enable compiz
[10:00] <c0re-X> oh
[10:01] <c0re-X> where?
[10:01] <mafu> Hello there. I have a RAID1 setup on a Debian system, with two disks. I wish to move this setup to a Kubuntu box. Does anyone know if there is any problem with that? I am using mdadm on Debian. And: if there is a better channel for help with this, please point me to it. :) Thank you!
[10:01] <c0re-X> o right :)
[10:01] <zafle> corex: and  use "advanced visual prefs" to enable  that effect
[10:01] <P041NX> Gnea: My system seems to become unstable when it's on
[10:01] <zafle> right click your background and enable desktop effects
[10:01] <c0re-X> i have enabled those
[10:01] <Gnea> P041NX: did you try anything else or just that?
[10:01] <zafle> do you get  gfx acceleration?
[10:01] <ganesh> brandonmpace:using synaptic?
[10:01] <c0re-X> when i move my windows they are kinda slippery
[10:01] <c0re-X> :D
[10:01] <c0re-X> like a jelly
[10:02] <brandonmpace> ganesh yes right click on firefox and click reinstall, i think
[10:02] <Minty95> zebralinux, I know that I can drag the folder, but there is menu somewhere, just where is it ??; me is looing all over the place :)
[10:02] <zebralinux> Minty95,  You cant drag your home dir to desktop
[10:02] <zebralinux> Minty95,  It will complain
[10:02] <P041NX> Gnea: Problem occoured after attaching the scanner, everything lese is my default setup that has not changesd
[10:02] <brandonmpace> lol
[10:03] <ganesh> brandonmpace: how do i reinstall using command line?
[10:03] <P041NX> Gnea:IThe system was running fine, and lsusb was working
[10:03] <c0re-X> but guys, what key-combination i should use, to change workspaces via 3d cube?
[10:03] <psor> hi. anybody try game Perfect World (onlineRPG) in ubuntu ????
[10:04] <P041NX> Gnea: Export if usbfs was there, showing all devices in the form if /proc/bus/usb/001/00X etc..
[10:04] <zafle> corex: go into advanced desktop effects
[10:04] <c0re-X> ok
[10:04] <zafle> in there?
[10:04] <Gnea> P041NX: okay, you're just repeating what you told me, you're not answering my question, which means that I can't help you.
[10:04] <airtonix> zebralinux, Minty95 you are thinking of the gconf setting for nautilus that makes your home folder the desktop
[10:05] <Gnea> P041NX: is the scanner the only device that's triggering the lack of output from the lsusb command?
[10:05] <pan_> what is good about tuxonice?
[10:05] <brandonmpace> ganesh: apt-get --reinstall package
[10:05] <brandonmpace> i think
[10:05] <zebralinux> Gnea, where is gconf ??
[10:05] <P041NX>  Gnea: Err, didn't mean to . sorry.  acpi is aff at all times, and it has not been changed
[10:05] <brandonmpace> pan_: it actually works
[10:05] <P041NX> off
[10:05] <zafle> "compizconfig" i t hink its called
[10:05] <c0re-X> well, its kinda hard to find them
[10:05] <airtonix> zebralinux, alt+f2 , type : gconf-editor
[10:05] <zebralinux> brandonmpace,  apt-get install --reinstall  package
[10:05] <Minty95> airtonix, I'm not sure, for the moment I have no folder on newly installed desktop, and I would like to see Home folder etc
[10:05] <c0re-X> coz i have in my language the whol ubuntu
[10:05] <c0re-X> whol*
[10:05] <c0re-X> :D
[10:05] <Gnea> P041NX: okay - but now i'm asking you about the scanner.
[10:06] <c0re-X> whole*
[10:06] <FloodBot2> c0re-X: Please don't flood, use http://paste.ubuntu.com to paste, don't use Enter as punctuation.
[10:06] <Minty95> airtonix, rather thans just an empty desktop
[10:06] <P041NX>  Gnea: Yes, the scanner is the only device that has caused this lack of output from lsusb
[10:06] <brandonmpace> pan_: I have tried to get hibernate to work on 10 different laptops of different brands, no luck.    tux on ice worked though
[10:06] <brandonmpace> zebralinux: thank you
[10:06] <zebralinux> Gnea, Ok in gconf ??
[10:06] <zamanfou> brandonmpace pan
[10:06] <Gnea> P041NX: how sure are you that acpi is the problem?
[10:06] <ganesh> brandonmpace: Invalid operation firefox
[10:07] <Gnea> zebralinux: what?
[10:07] <pan_> ah
[10:07] <zafle> corex: type "ccsm" in terminal
[10:07] <Gnea> !ask | zebralinux
[10:07] <airtonix> Minty95, run gconf-editor and navigate to : apps -> nautilus... see if any of those options in there are what your thinking of
[10:07] <zebralinux> Gnea, where in gconf to fix that ?
[10:07] <P041NX>  Gnea:  This scanner itself is working file on windows. xsane has support, and on ubuntu, it works if it is plugged in from cold boot
[10:07] <Gnea> zebralinux: to fix WHAT? i wasn't helping you.
[10:07] <c0re-X> ok
[10:07] <brandonmpace> apt-get install --reinstall  firefox                  ganesh
[10:07] <bungaznan> @zafle, how to know what visualisation we're using
[10:07] <zebralinux> Gnea, where in gconf to fix that ?
[10:07] <zamanfou> brandonmpace pan
[10:08] <zebralinux> Gnea, to show home folder in Desktop
[10:08] <zafle> bungaznan: there should be a menu at the bottom of the visual
[10:08] <Gnea> zebralinux: i have no idea.
[10:08] <zafle> a drop down menu
[10:08] <P041NX>  Gnea:  abut the acpi: this was turned off from another problem, and i have menthined it becase ithis is deffret from the default ubuntu boot arguemnt
[10:08] <airtonix> zebralinux, apps -> nautilus
[10:08] <brandonmpace> zamanfou: yes?
[10:08] <zebralinux> airtonix,  where in gconf ??+++
[10:08] <c0re-X> ok, installing it
[10:08] <yjwong> zebralinux, /apps/nautilus
[10:08] <airtonix> zebralinux, apps -> nautilus
[10:08] <c0re-X> i didnt have it
[10:08] <Gnea> zebralinux: you need to listen to airtonix.
[10:08] <c0re-X> and it offered installation
[10:09] <zafle> corex: install it
[10:09] <airtonix> zebralinux, apps -> nautilus -> desktop
[10:09] <Gnea> P041NX: is this a laptop or desktop?
[10:09] <yjwong> apps -> nautilus -> desktop on the left pane, then check "home_icon_visible"
[10:09] <c0re-X> ok
[10:09] <P041NX>  Gnea:  a desktop
[10:09] <Minty95> airtonix, thats perfect, thanks
[10:09] <zafle> corex: that program will have options for all the desktop effects, there is one called desktop cube
[10:09] <zafle> just enable it
[10:10] <airtonix> Minty95, there is a package called ubuntu tweak that will provide a minimal gui for some of those obscure settings in there...
[10:10] <c0re-X> ok
[10:10] <zebralinux> Minty95,  I fixed it
[10:10] <c0re-X> ty
[10:10] <zafle> corex: welcome
[10:11] <udo1985> Hi guys! Just one simple question: Does Debian in its default install include binary code blobs?
[10:11] <Flannel> udo1985: Try #debian or #ubuntu-offtopic
[10:12] <Gnea> P041NX: is the scanner plugged directly into the system or into a usb hub?
[10:12] <udo1985> OK, thank you
[10:12] <bungaznan> eureka...there's some improvement
[10:12] <P041NX>  Gnea:  Directly onto a usb 1.1 chip
[10:12] <P041NX> on the motherboard
[10:12] <shingoki> So has it been decided what ibex will look like, yet? I saw some really awful "everything dark brown" screenshots, was just wondering how it is going?
[10:12] <sunru> I want to install ubuntu server in a chroot, is this difficult with ubuntu?
[10:12] <Flannel> shingoki: #ubuntu+1 for Intrepid questions, thanks.
[10:13] <Ziroday> Flannel: dammit, was about to say that :P
[10:13] <P041NX>  Gnea:  Port has been tested if it's broken. Both two ports on m/b work (have tested diffrent external usb drive to confirm)
[10:13] <bungaznan> i tick Visualisation option in View, and now my system will no longer freeze
[10:13] <MyNameIsZohan> I just recently installed the cairo dock, can anyone tell me what's the middle click?
[10:13] <zafle> shingoki: i'm using it right now, it has the old theme by default and comes with the dark newhuman theme, i'm assuming that is the new theme
[10:13] <shingoki> Flannel: thanks
[10:13] <sunru> hmm
[10:14] <Ziroday> MyNameIsZohan: clicking the scroll wheel or left and right click together
[10:14] <zafle> shingoki: if you google intrepidibex theme there is a really nice looking brown one
[10:14] <c0re-X> how to pain fire on the screen?
[10:14] <sunru> well
[10:14] <c0re-X> :D
[10:14] <bungaznan> thanks to everyone speacially zafle
[10:14] <sunru> all i can do then is tar up a debian install on another server and untar that into the chroot.
[10:14] <zafle> bungaznan:welcome, sorry it w asnt resolved
[10:14] <Ziroday> c0re-X: you need to install the advanced desktop effects settings manager and enable it
[10:14] <c0re-X> i have it
[10:14] <sunru> infact, i will do this.
[10:15] <c0re-X> i checked the fire drawing
[10:15] <c0re-X> and now how to pain it?
[10:15] <Ziroday> c0re-X: then you need to look at the key bindings
[10:15] <damnnicks> How much faster will ubuntu run than vista on a core 2 duo quad @ 3.8ghz 1800mhz fsb, 8gb ddr3 ram @ 1800mhz, 2 nvidia gtx 280s, and 4 velociraptors in raid?
[10:15] <c0re-X> ok, ty
[10:15] <sunru> damnnicks: who knows!
[10:15] <sunru> who cares!
[10:15] <damnnicks> I do
[10:15] <damnnicks> vista screams :D
[10:16] <Ziroday> damnnicks: both OS's will run extremely fast on those specs
[10:16] <c0re-X> im in key bindings. but thers nothing about painting fire :S
[10:16] <sunru> he wants to know which is faster.
[10:16] <c0re-X> thers only the regular bindings
[10:16] <sunru> I'm thinking "depends"
[10:16] <c0re-X> not for effects
[10:16] <damnnicks> I know vista does :D but will ubuntu make better use of my 4 cores?
[10:16] <zafle> core-x: i believe its alt or ctrl, just set a key binding, might be ctrl p or something weird
[10:17] <c0re-X> o ok
[10:17] <c0re-X> thanks
[10:17] <sunru> damnnicks: the kernel will is you enable smp
[10:17] <c0re-X> i found
[10:17] <Ziroday> c0re-X: try shift super left click
[10:17] <brandonmpace> c0re-X: shift  windows click
[10:17] <i_love_linux> i need help new to ubuntu and connecting to a windows network
[10:17] <c0re-X> what means <super> ?
[10:17] <damnnicks> I see
[10:17] <c0re-X> what key is that?
[10:17] <brandonmpace> c0re-X:windows
[10:17] <zafle> lol at the gimicky fun of the paint  tool
[10:17] <zafle> paint fire*
[10:17] <jin_> C0nn0R, the windows key
[10:17] <c0re-X> ok
[10:17] <ortsvorsteher> !de
[10:17] <Ziroday> zafle: offtopic in #ubuntu-offtopic please
[10:18] <B3z3rk3r> bedtime, night guyz
[10:18] <zafle> later
[10:18] <MyNameIsZohan> is possible i have no middle click?
[10:18] <MyNameIsZohan> cause i can't seem to pull it
[10:18] <Ziroday> MyNameIsZohan: that is impossible
[10:18] <c0re-X> yey, fun
[10:18] <Minty95> need to share a folder for my other cumpuer to see, I cant do in simple share options as I don't have permission, so how do I do it ?
[10:18] <Minty95> hoping that was clear
[10:19] <WastePotato> Anything much going on in here?
[10:19] <i_love_linux> how do i connect to a windows network and see the shared folders
[10:19] <P041NX>  Gnea:  Would it be possible to redirect me to the appropriate place for discussion/question on usbfs exporting /lsusb problems?
[10:19] <MyNameIsZohan> left click and right click at the same time doesn't work
[10:19] <Ziroday> MyNameIsZohan: try ctrl and left click
[10:19] <WastePotato> SAMBA
[10:19] <Ziroday> P041NX: ##linux
[10:19] <jin_> i_love_linux, places -> Network
[10:19] <jin_> i_love_linux, that's on your desktop panel
[10:19] <P041NX> ...ok... thank you for helping out.
[10:19] <Ziroday> i_love_linux: go to the Network area in the file manager
[10:19] <Minty95> brb
[10:20] <zafle> ilovelinux: google samba
[10:20] <MyNameIsZohan> ctrl and left click doesn't do anything
[10:20] <ganesh> when i tried to change screen resolution i could not...but result was i lost title bar of fire fox..how to fix it?
[10:20]  * damnnicks needs faster internet connection
[10:20] <i_love_linux> jin_, ziroday,  i am using xubuntu and i don't see anything like that
[10:20] <brandonmpace> i_love_linux: go to the Network area in the file manager
[10:20] <Ziroday> MyNameIsZohan: then the program is not correctly reading middle click. Please address
[10:20] <MyNameIsZohan> k
[10:20] <Ziroday> i_love_linux: xubuntu in #xubuntu please
[10:20] <Gnea> P041NX: you could try pci=routeirq
[10:20] <MyNameIsZohan> anyone familiar with cairo dock?
[10:21] <zafle> mynameiszohan: yes
[10:21] <zafle> mynameiszohan: what about it
[10:21] <i_love_linux> backslash join #xubuntu right
[10:21] <Ziroday> i_love_linux: yes
[10:21] <Flannel> i_love_linux: /join #xubuntu
[10:21] <MyNameIsZohan> can't seem to work the middle click button
[10:21] <Flannel> er,
[10:21] <Flannel> yes.
[10:21] <P041NX> Gnea:  for interrupt crash?
[10:21] <i_love_linux> thanks
[10:22] <Akuma> Hello, I have a problem: I cannot connect to encrypted wireless networks (open networks connect just fine)
[10:22] <Akuma> I'm using shared WEP on my wless router
[10:22] <zafle> akuma: does it prompt for a pswd?
[10:22] <Akuma> no
[10:22] <Gnea> P041NX: it doesn't crash, it re-arranges and handles them better - could be the reason why ACPI wasn't working right in the first place.
[10:23] <Akuma> I'm doing it from command line
[10:23] <zafle> can you see the ssid?
[10:23] <barlrol> hey fellas, can someone help me with smb permission...I typed in Shares-admin into terminal and it allowed me to choose a folder to share over smb.  I made sure to uncheck the read only box.  But whenever I try to put files or folder into this shared folder over the network I get a permissions error, access denied...how do i give myself permission!!!???
[10:23] <Akuma> dhclient after setting the options in iwconfig
[10:23] <Akuma> I do see the wireless networks
[10:23] <nananuu> why pingus does not work yesterday all was fine?
[10:23] <Akuma> mine included
[10:23] <zch> how to su root
[10:23] <brandonmpace> Akuma: you may want to consider going open network but configuring a whitelist for mac addresses that only allows you access
[10:23] <Akuma> I have mac filtering
[10:23] <Gnea> barlrol: make sure your unix permissions are in sync
[10:23] <brandonmpace> then why do you have wep?lol
[10:24] <sfer3> Akuma: That could be your problem
[10:24] <Akuma> though I rather also have a password on it
[10:24] <barlrol> gnea: what do you mean by that, im a noob
[10:24] <zafle> akuma: can you get a promp via gui? or are you just on a term
[10:24] <sunru> zch: negative, use sudo
[10:24] <brandonmpace> mac filtering keeps other people off
[10:24] <Ziroday> !root > zch
[10:24] <P041NX> Gnea: Ok, will try and reboot it with pci=routeirq. Bi the way, you wouldn't know how to force the speed of usb to 1.1, would you?
[10:24] <sfer3> brandonmpace: They can be spoofed.
[10:24] <Akuma> the mac is allowed on the router, works fine when I make the network open
[10:24] <zafle> akuma: you can try turning all your filters off and  enable them one by one
[10:24] <zafle> akuma: oh
[10:24]  * Kondensuotas_pie kriu kriu. :D
[10:24] <skillet> wep shouldnt be used anymore. wpa is a lot better
[10:24] <zch> yes
[10:24] <brandonmpace> sfer3:  I know but how likely is it that someone will know that exact mac needed to get on the network
[10:24] <brandonmpace> lol
[10:24] <Akuma> zafle: I'm using wicd
[10:24] <Xteven> does anyone know a tool to find collisions/overlaps between ical files ?
[10:25] <sfer3> Akuma: Is there any particular reason you're doing it via command line?
[10:25] <Akuma> I tried both with gui and iwconfig ath0 key s:pass
[10:25] <sfer3> brandonmpace: Some people just can't get tnough security. :P
[10:25] <Gnea> barlrol: unix filesystem permissions are independent of windows networking share permissions - in other words, you need to make sure that the permissions of the folders (and root folders!) and the files you want to modify are set correctly on your ubuntu host in order for samba authentication to know that the files are indeed supposed to be writable.
[10:25] <Akuma> trying to debug the problem
[10:25] <sfer3> *enough
[10:25] <TiMiDo> which release is the unstable from ubuntu? edgy  breezy hoary or warty?
[10:25] <Gnea> !samba | barlrol
[10:25] <Akuma> I thought it was wicd
[10:25] <brandonmpace> sfer3: true lol
[10:25] <TiMiDo> !unstable
[10:25] <Gnea> barlrol: check that 2nd URL out
[10:25] <zch>  !root: event not found
[10:26] <TiMiDo> !unstable | unstable
[10:26] <Gnea> please do not abuse the bot.
[10:26] <TiMiDo> lol
[10:26] <TiMiDo> sorry which release is the unstable version of ubuntu
[10:26] <Akuma> the message I get on dhclient when I try to connect on my encrypted network is: No DHCPOFFERS received
[10:26] <jpds> !ibex | TiMiDo
[10:26] <TiMiDo> im downloading ubuntu right now and i want to packaged for ubuntu.
[10:26] <zafle> akuma: i'm not that good with wifi, but my suggestion would be to open your  router prefs and turn everything off and enable one at a time. you probably have a weird filter setting
[10:26] <Akuma> even though I've set the key correctly
[10:26] <brandonmpace> alpha 6 intrepid TiMiDo
[10:26] <skillet> Akuma, is DHCP turned on on the router
[10:26] <TiMiDo> okey
[10:27] <barlrol> Gnea: ok my samba permissions are fine how do I set permissions locally for the computer?
[10:27] <Akuma> skillet: yes, works fine under windows or when I turn WEP off
[10:27] <barlrol> Gnea: if there is a gui tool to do this that would be good vs terminal
[10:27] <ganesh> when i tried to change screen resolution i could not...but result was i lost title bar of fire fox..how to fix it?
[10:27] <skillet> Akuma, what if you use WPA?
[10:28] <zafle> akuma: do you dhcp enabled on your router?
[10:28] <Gnea> barlrol: if you're using nautilus, you can just right-click on the file or folder, select properties, then the permissions tab
[10:28] <Akuma> zafle: yes, it automatically assigns the address
[10:28] <zafle> akuma: http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/mandriva-linux-help/28473-no-dhcpoffers-received.html
[10:28] <Akuma> skillet: I have no tried
[10:28] <brandonmpace> ganesh: right click on the firefox in the window list and click move
[10:28] <Gnea> barlrol: just make sure that Group and Others can do what they're supposed to do
[10:28] <TiMiDo> what's the channel for packaging ?
[10:28] <barlrol> Gnea: oh woot nautilus ftw
[10:28] <brandonmpace> ganesh: on your bar below
[10:29] <barlrol> Gnea: can i set this for the whole filesystem vs a few folders?
[10:29] <zafle> akuma: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-wireless-networking-41/cannot-get-dhcp-address-no-dhcpoffers-received.-606428/
[10:29] <skillet> zafle, that url is not going to help him
[10:29] <Gnea> barlrol: and you can see the permissions change on-the-fly in the nautilus window, like -rwx-r----- will become -rwx-rw-rw- or something
[10:29] <Akuma> it gets the dhcp fine when WEP is off
[10:29] <barlrol> Gnea: cause i have my whole filesystem shared...this is a seedbox
[10:29] <Gnea> barlrol: that would be a very BAD idea.
[10:29] <Gnea> barlrol: seedbox?
[10:30] <zafle> skillet: i google the error akuma got and thats what the commone problem was when receiving that error
[10:30] <brandonmpace> Akuma: wait... In your mac list you did include both the lower case AND upper case versions of your mac, right?  That helped me
[10:30] <barlrol> Its 300 miles away and im just using it to seed torrents..so i wanna be able to drag and drop files via smb share to and from it...its  in the garage
[10:30] <peter__> msgme
[10:30] <barlrol> gnea ^^^
[10:30] <skillet> zafle, you assumed he was having a prob with DHCP he is not.
[10:30] <Akuma> brandonmpace: it's not a mac  problme: it connects fine when WEP is off
[10:31] <brandonmpace> Akuma: k had to make sure
[10:31] <zafle> akuma: can you try using wpa?
[10:31] <Akuma> sure
[10:31] <Gnea> barlrol: then you definitely do NOT want to do that.
[10:31] <Akuma> brb, need to reboot router to change settings
[10:31] <zafle> akuma: okay
[10:31] <barlrol> Gnea: can I pm you?
[10:31] <Gnea> barlrol: what files are you trying to torrent?
[10:31] <Gnea> barlrol: no.
[10:32] <ortsvorsteher> !nv
[10:32] <Ohkie> hey guys. watching dvd's in ubuntu... whats the secret? :)
[10:33] <Gnea> okay, well it's bedtime.
[10:33] <Gnea> barlrol: good luck with that, but we don't support potentially illegal activity here.
[10:33] <ganesh> brandonmpace: ya i did..what next?
[10:33] <barlrol> Gnea: in nautilus do i edit it in properties or sharing...i see sharing options?
[10:33] <TiMiDo> Ohkie, Mplayer is the secret
[10:33] <Ohkie> sweet. i dont need codecs or hacks or anything?
[10:33] <TiMiDo> !doc
[10:34] <zafle> ohkie: libdvdcss2
[10:34] <brandonmpace> ganesh: you should be able to move the window around if it wasn´t maximized.
[10:34] <damnicks2> >_<
[10:34] <Akuma> zafle: changing to WPA seems to work
[10:34] <nine_>  sudo hdparm -tT /dev/sda, can someone tell me the output to compare with mine ? I am receiving 89.60 and 17.21
[10:34] <Ohkie> ok cool
[10:34] <Akuma> I don't really get why though
[10:34] <nine_> in a ide disk
[10:34] <skillet> cause wep sucks it
[10:34] <zafle> akuma: awesome. is that ok?  or do you have to have wep? wpa is much better anyway
[10:35] <Akuma> Oh, that's fine, but it'll be a problem if I try to connect to a WEP network
[10:35] <ganesh> brandonmpace: when i re installed firefox it was fine but when i tried to change resolution i lost title bar..
[10:35] <damnicks2> Note to self: If there is only 3 cords plugged into the ups battery side and only one of those is gray, and the tower runs to a gray one, chances are that gray one is the one for the tower do not unplug to move monitor.
[10:35] <damnicks2> >_<
[10:35] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> nn
[10:35] <zafle> akuma: yeah but atleast you got YOUR protected net working
[10:35] <barlrol> gnea: im not doing anything illigal k..right now the owner is root what do i need to change it to
[10:35] <Katsu> >.>
[10:36] <Akuma> zafle: true ;)
[10:36] <ganesh> brandonmpace: i am not able  move firefox...
[10:36] <Akuma> I'll have to look into this, though I really have no idea why it does this
[10:36] <brandonmpace> Ohkie: go to  http://www.medibuntu.org/          once you install that , install libdvdcss2
[10:36] <damnicks2> Hrmm
[10:36] <zafle> akuma: on 8.10 they are aiming for perfect wifi  experience  that may fix your problem
[10:36] <zafle> when the time comes
[10:36] <creaux> is there an alternative to tracepath?
[10:36] <brandonmpace> ganesh: I hope someone else knows how to fix this...    I´m sorry
[10:37] <skillet> whoever says driver support is better in windows is nuts
[10:37] <Akuma> well, I'm a new ubuntu user
[10:37] <brandonmpace> skillet: oh so true lol
[10:37] <ganesh> brandonmpace: thank you..
[10:37] <Akuma> so hopefully I can just hit upgrade and taht'll take care of it
[10:37] <eirik-eee> nine_: I get around 500mb/s timing cached reads and 70mb/s timing buffered disk reads. on a 500gb SATA 2  disk
[10:37] <Ohkie> i tried sudo apt-get install libdvdcss2 but it says "is not available"?
[10:37] <stdin> !dvd | Ohkie
[10:37] <zafle> akuma: youve got to start somewhere, oct 30 is when 8.10  comes out. if you can handle wpa only till then that might  fix your  problem. but keep looking into  it if you need it
[10:37] <brandonmpace> upgrades usually help
[10:37] <nine_> eirik-eee, thanks
[10:37] <Akuma> nice
[10:37] <damnicks2> eirik, how did you get that stat?
[10:38] <Ohkie> heh cheers man
[10:38] <Ohkie> :)
[10:38] <bazhang> Ohkie, you need to go to www.medibuntu.org for that
[10:38] <c0re-X> how to add 4 workspaces in compizconfig?
[10:38] <zafle> akuma: try downloading a livecd of 8.10 and see if it will connect  to the wep
[10:38] <bazhang> c0re-X, for the cube?
[10:38] <c0re-X> yesh
[10:38] <TiMiDo> is there any docs on how to make a package in ubuntu?
[10:38] <TiMiDo> please?
[10:38] <brandonmpace> Ohkie: you need to go to http://www.medibuntu.org/ and install their repo first
[10:38] <eirik-eee> damnicks2: hdparm. "sudo hdparm -Tt /dev/sda"
[10:38] <Akuma> I'll do that
[10:38] <bazhang> go to the ccsm and set virtual horizontal desktops to 4 under general
[10:38] <Akuma> Thanks a lot for the help!
[10:39] <zafle> yeah no prob
[10:39] <brandonmpace> c0re-X: if you enable the desktop cube, it should automagically do that
[10:39] <damnicks2> I see, thanks
[10:39] <bazhang> !packaging
[10:39] <zafle> corex: add a panel applet for workspaces and change it to 4. easy shortcut
[10:39] <c0re-X> ok
[10:39] <zch> how to  speed  download
[10:39] <nine_> eirik-eee, do you have firefox or other applications open ? if possible try to do it with all aplication closed
[10:39] <cq_> hello, question: Ijust installed inspircd, and I can access it from the same machine with LOCALHOST, but not from another machine on teh network... I set the IPtables to allow connections to the port, but it's still refusing connections
[10:39] <bazhang> zafle, that wont do it
[10:40] <eirik-eee> nine_: I didnt run it now, but i recall the numbers as ive run it many times
[10:40] <brandonmpace> bazhang is correct
[10:40] <nine_> eirik-eee : thanks
[10:40] <sfer3> join #ubuntu-meetings
[10:40] <zch> how to  speed  download
[10:40] <c0re-X> wierd, i cannot increse the desktop count
[10:40] <c0re-X> its on 1
[10:40] <zafle> bazhang: its worked for me...
[10:41] <zafle> but that was a long time ago
[10:41] <bazhang> c0re-X, in the ccsm manager?
[10:41] <c0re-X> yes
[10:41] <c0re-X> in the Number of desktops
[10:41] <brandonmpace> c0re-X: it will say 1
[10:41] <bazhang> c0re-X, let me check
[10:41] <c0re-X> oh, i needed to change horizontal virtual size?
[10:41] <brandonmpace> c0re-X: but you will have four, make sure to enable rotate cube
[10:41] <brandonmpace> yes
[10:42] <bazhang> c0re-X, under desktop settings in general set virt horizontal to 4
[10:42] <runemaste> i have a machine with one IDE drive and one sata drive. i want to install on the ide drive and have a specified mount point for the sata, but only the sata is showing up in the install
[10:42] <c0re-X> ooo virt, yes
[10:42] <c0re-X> k'
[10:42] <runemaste> any ideas on how to fix?
[10:42] <Hmmy> i have a question,when i login my ubuntu,there is nothing on de desktop,only the theme color,why
[10:43] <c0re-X> i have only sphere or cylinder
[10:43] <c0re-X> :(\
[10:43] <c0re-X> no cube
[10:43] <brandonmpace> Hmmy: what is the speed of the machine you are running?
[10:43] <c0re-X> o
[10:43] <c0re-X> now i have cube
[10:43] <brandonmpace> lol
[10:43] <c0re-X> worked out, ty
[10:43] <zafle> bazhang: i just checked. you can just add workspaces from the panel app
[10:43] <zafle> for cube
[10:43] <brandonmpace> you´re welcome
[10:44] <brandonmpace> hmm, I can´s zafle
[10:44] <brandonmpace> can´t*
[10:44] <zafle> the gnome panel app for workspaces wont let you change the amount of workspaces? or  it doesnt effect cube?
[10:45] <zafle> mine does both..
[10:45] <zafle> strange
[10:45] <brandonmpace> I can only change the amount of rows that it shows the desktop icons in
[10:45] <cq_> any suggestions on who can answer iptables questions?=
[10:45] <zafle> mine gives me rows and columns
[10:45] <runemaste> anyone know how to fix the installer?
[10:45] <brandonmpace> runemaste: double check your bios settings
[10:45] <zafle> i just  change colum and it will give me more desktops. i think they are all linked to the same file
[10:46] <karex> HI, what packages i need to do folder sharing>
[10:46] <Hmmy> anyone know why when i log in X,on the desktop anything does not have
[10:46] <runemaste> brandonmpace: they are both detecting fine in the bios... uhh... let me grep messages
[10:47] <karex> runemaste: what do you mean?
[10:47] <Ohkie> thanks guys :)
[10:48] <brandonmpace> runemaste: they may both be detecting but in the bios is your sata set up to be SATA/PATA
[10:48] <Guest96921> what channel for xubuntu
[10:48] <karex> HI, what packages i need to do folder sharing??
[10:48] <brandonmpace> Ohkie: you´re welcom
[10:48] <bazhang> zafle, but the workspace switcher is something else :)
[10:48] <brandonmpace> welcome*
[10:48] <zafle> folder sharing?
[10:48] <zafle> as in  between  windows and  linux?
[10:48] <bazhang> karex, samba
[10:49] <zafle> bazhang:  still doesnt explain why i can use that to change the rest of the settings lol
[10:49] <brandonmpace> !samba
[10:49] <runemaste> what do you mean brandonmpace?
[10:49] <karex> bazhang: the name of the packages is 'samba'?
[10:49] <zafle> samba. then  right click the folder and share
[10:50] <brandonmpace> runemaste: do you also have windows?
[10:50] <runemaste> nope
[10:50] <bazhang> karex, aye; sudo apt-get install samba
[10:50] <runemaste> brandonmpace: update: hda, hdb, hdc, etc. arent showing up in /var/log/messages
[10:51] <karex> bazhang, zafle: is it only for ubuntu<->windows? how about ubuntu<->ubuntu?
[10:51] <brandonmpace> runemaste: ok well, when you have a sata drive set up in your bios, it likes to cover up the ide drives by default, you need to find the option that allows you to use both
[10:51] <brandonmpace> that is why
[10:51]  * Debolaz still has trouble finding a non-opera feed reader that doesn't suck in some way. :/
[10:51] <brandonmpace> I have had to deal with that
[10:51] <bazhang> nfs for linux linux karex
[10:51] <runemaste> ok thanks brandonmpace, time to go a-hunting lol
[10:51] <creamdawg> join #meat
[10:51] <hosstest> is there a command you can issue in terminal to force the computer to check for new USB devices?
[10:52] <zafle> bazhang: i think its a compatibilty layer for  windows/linux. dont quote me though, id check the website
[10:52] <runemaste> its an inbuilt sata card, will the option be in the bios?
[10:52] <brandonmpace> runemaste: usually you can set this setting to SATA/PATA and you can have ide drives on either the first or second ribbon
[10:52] <bazhang> !nfs
[10:52] <zafle> i'm  pretty sure you wouldnt need it for an ubuntu  ubuntu cause they are both *nix
[10:52] <brandonmpace> it might
[10:52] <gnuskool> aloha!
[10:53] <Hmmy> ！anyone know why when i log in X,on the desktop anything does not have
[10:53] <karex> zafle: so, how to do folder sharing ubuntu-ubuntu?
[10:53] <hosstest> does anyone know how to check for new USB devices in the terminal?
[10:54] <brandonmpace> karex: all you should have to do is right click on a folder and click properties, the share tab
[10:54] <karex> zafle: in virtual machine?
[10:54] <brandonmpace> oh
[10:54] <brandonmpace> karex: virtualbox?
[10:54] <karex> brandonmpace: vmware
[10:54] <runemaste> any idea where i can find the option in a K7VT4A?
[10:55] <brandonmpace> and your host is vmware karex ?
[10:55] <zafle> i believe it will detect the other comp on your lan and you would just go to "network" in nautilus
[10:55] <brandonmpace> linux i mean karex lol
[10:55] <brandonmpace> host is linux?
[10:55] <karex> brandonmpace: ubuntu of course
[10:56] <brandonmpace> ok so ubuntu inside of ubuntu. you might be able to do the right click> properties> share tab
[10:56] <zafle> its good to share
[10:56] <zafle> especially with yourself :)
[10:57] <brandonmpace> and then go to network on the other machine
[10:57] <brandonmpace> under places
[10:58] <fedora_> ubuntu gives me a real hardon
[10:58] <turtles> would someone be able to help me with my mdadm array?
[10:58] <bazhang> !ot > fedora_
[10:59] <zafle> lol at  fedora
[10:59] <zafle> but you meant  hardy
[11:00] <karex> brandonmpace, zafle: the only i need only samba??
[11:00] <zafle> if its just ubuntuubuntu then you dont need anything
[11:00] <zafle> samba is installed by default i believe
[11:00] <brandonmpace> I´m out. going to bed. later all
[11:01] <zafle> later
[11:01] <fedora_> i go to bed with ubuntu
[11:01] <bazhang> fedora_, please stop
[11:02] <fedora_> what is jaunty jackalpe, is it a horny beast?
[11:02] <zafle> yes
[11:02] <zafle> but shh on this channel
[11:02] <bazhang> zafle, please stay ontopic
[11:02] <karex> zafle: it tell me the error msg about missing of files (or packages i think)
[11:02] <bazhang> #ubuntu-offtopic for chat
[11:02] <zafle> sorry
[11:03] <Ziroday> Does the desktop cd support creating LVM partitions?
[11:03] <Flannel> Ziroday: no
[11:03] <zafle> You can try and install samba again it may be missing files for some reason
[11:03] <zafle> what does synaptic say about it?
[11:03] <Ziroday> Flannel: only alternate?
[11:03] <Flannel> Ziroday: well, I think gparted does, sure, but you can't isntall to them.
[11:03] <Flannel> Ziroday: correct
[11:03] <Ziroday> Flannel: thanks, have a great day
[11:03] <bullgard4> What is a Ubuntu command similar to the Windows 'net send' command?
[11:04] <karex> zafle: it is only within nautilus, not using synaptic
[11:04] <runemaste> anyone else have any ideas on how to get hda to show up to ubuntu... the option brandonmpace described doesnt seem to be in my bios
[11:05] <zafle> synaptic is the package manager. try searching for samba
[11:05] <karex> zafle: i think i'll try to install 'samba' before asking in depth :)
[11:05] <zafle> you are networking with a windows comp correct?
[11:05] <karex> zafle: thank you
[11:06] <karex> zafle: ubuntu and ubuntu in vmware
[11:06] <bullgard4> runemaste: Run 'sudo lshw-class disk'.
[11:06] <zch> how to  speed  download
[11:06] <karex> zch: use download manager
[11:07] <bullgard4> runemaste: Run 'sudo lshw -class disk'.
[11:07] <runemaste> ok booting into buntu
[11:07] <zafle> karex: this may help its a  guide on  networking from vmware site
[11:07] <zafle> http://www.vmware.com/resources/techresources/997
[11:07] <Ohkie> every time i open a dvd folder or a network folder it gets added to my desktop... is there a way to stop that?
[11:07] <zafle> karex:http://www.usenix.org/events/vm04/tech/full_papers/sundararaj/sundararaj_html/node5.html
[11:08] <airtonix> Ohkie, by editing the options for nautilus in the gconf-editor
[11:08] <zafle> ohkie: yes
[11:08] <Ohkie> k
[11:08] <zafle> i think its a gconf setting i'll see if i can find it
[11:08] <airtonix> Ohkie, apps -> nautilus -> desktop
[11:09] <karex> zafle: thank you
[11:09] <Ohkie> awesome thanks :)
[11:09] <zafle> karex: hope that helps a bit
[11:10] <airtonix> karex, have you tried using nfs? much faster than samba
[11:11] <zafle> ohkie: open a terminal and type "gconf-editor" then go "-> apps -> nautilus -> desktop" and change the prefs as y ou would like
[11:11] <airtonix> karex, much easier to setup than samba too
[11:11] <karex> airtonix: thank you, but i'll try samba at first:)
[11:11] <wx9j_> cannot kill nautilus, it restarts, but will not work when it is up.
[11:12] <zafle> airtonix:he is  doing it vmware. i dont know if that works the same as a non vitrual setup
[11:13] <airtonix> zafle, being virtual machine doesnt matter.
[11:13] <zafle> oh ok. i have no experience
[11:13] <zafle> just thought it may
[11:13] <karex> airtonix, zafle: thank you. see you...
[11:14] <zafle> welcome
[11:14] <sunru> hello, can someone tell me the point of the small primary partition? I got ubuntu-server to setup the disk with defaults but I don't understand the small primary and then the extended (which contains 1 partition thats is LVM)
[11:15] <runemaste> lshw-class disk -- lshw-class: command not found
[11:15] <zafle> sunru: are you talking about the / partition?
[11:15] <sunru> zafle: no its not used, the / partition is on the LVM group within the extented partition
[11:16] <Seveas> sunru, the small primary partition is for /boot, grub (the bootloader) doesn't work on lvm
[11:16] <runemaste> whoops. space after hw
[11:16] <sunru> hmmmm
[11:16] <runemaste> :P
[11:16] <zafle> seveas: had no idea bootloader didnt work with lvm
[11:17] <zafle> i havent used a /boot in forever lol
[11:17] <sunru> Seveas: your absolutely right, sorry about that.
[11:17] <runemaste> bullgard4: the ide hard disk drive isnt listed
[11:17] <Seveas> sunru, no need to be sorry :)
[11:17] <Seveas> sunru, if you feel like a challenge, you can get rid of the partition and use lilo instead of grub. If you prefer to satay sane I'd advise against that though :)
[11:18] <Engelus> добрый день
[11:18] <sunru> yes
[11:18] <sunru> http://pgsql.privatepaste.com/551ScKLGm3
[11:18] <Seveas> Engelus, english in here please
[11:18] <Seveas> !ru | Engelus
[11:18] <sunru> i don't understand what theres an extended partition though.
[11:18] <sunru> might as well be a primary.
[11:18] <zafle> <- bad memories of  lilo  from my early gentoo days
[11:19] <Seveas> sunru, maximum compatibility with legacy os'es I guess (don't steal too many primary partitions, windows might need them)
[11:19] <sunru> zafle: oh, can't wait to get off gentoo and restore my sanity :)
[11:19] <bullgard4> runemaste: What program does not list your ide hard disk drive ?
[11:19] <Engelus> Hello
[11:19] <zafle> sunru: yeah its been awhile i just remember having a  giant stack of papers and compile times on my 500mhz p3 took days
[11:19] <zafle> 3 days to install gentoo
[11:20] <zafle> ouch!
[11:20] <bullgard4> Engelus: Hello!
[11:20] <sunru> i actually went from debian -> mandrake -> gentoo (.oO(HULP!)
[11:20] <Seveas> zafle, bad thing is, it *still* takes 3 days to install gentoo :)
[11:20] <Seveas> sunru, so you moved backwards ;)
[11:20] <sunru> indeed
[11:20] <zafle> oh god, atleast its a learning experience compared to  ubuntus easyness*
[11:20] <runemaste> bullgard4: lshw -class disk
[11:20] <runemaste> and there is no trace of it in /var/log/messages
[11:21] <sunru> yes but i learned on slackware, gentoo was a bad call.
[11:21] <The_ManU_212> hi i made a update with adept-manager (icon in kicker) it crashed with sig11 after installing all before getting the message that all was installed sucessfully (there is a small progress abr, it loads  often a window when there is a new kubuntu version to upgrade), there it crashed
[11:21] <runemaste> theres my sata 160gb
[11:21] <runemaste> but not my ide
[11:21] <Seveas> zafle, that's true. As is walking barefoot through open fire. You'll quickly learn you never want to do it again ;)
[11:21] <The_ManU_212> how to find out if the system is ok? is this bad?
[11:21] <Seveas> The_ManU_212, hmm, that doesn't look too healthy. Can you still open up a konsole?
[11:21] <sunru> anyhow, on with the fdiskin
[11:22] <zafle> haha.  i do miss the super  tailored  feel of it though. just not all the broken packages and  weird loops holes... #emerge>sleep>emerge>use
[11:22] <The_ManU_212> Seveas yep, i use standard ubuntu sources and wine nothing else
[11:23] <Seveas> The_ManU_212, ok, then you can run these commands (in this order) to restore some sanity. Pastebin all output please so I can see how bad it is.
[11:23] <Seveas> sudo dpkg --configure -a
[11:23] <Seveas> sudo apt-get -f install
[11:23] <Seveas> sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[11:24] <lacy>  i have a question i know it might sound silly do they offer an school for Ubuntu  or class to learn this ?
[11:24] <bullgard4> runemaste: Please nopaste the output of ' lshw -class disk'.
[11:24] <Seveas> lacy, there is training material available
[11:25] <Seveas> lacy, https://help.ubuntu.com/ has documentation, I'm trying to find the training material. Hang on
[11:26] <Seveas> lacy, http://www.ubuntu.com/training
[11:26] <The_ManU_212> Seveas: sudo dpkg --configure -a -> new prompt, sudo apt-get -f install, install remove and upgrade all 0 then prompt, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -> nothing to upgrade /same as -f install
[11:26] <Seveas> The_ManU_212, then all is fine :)
[11:26] <ubuntu_> hi
[11:27] <ubuntu_> anyone knows why code::blocks is not included in ubuntu's or debian's repositories?
[11:27] <Seveas> The_ManU_212, just to be sure, run this: sudo update-initramfs -u so your initramfs is definitely ok
[11:27] <ubuntu_> it's gpl-licensed as far as i know
[11:27] <The_ManU_212> Seveas ok and then my system is 100% ok?
[11:27] <Seveas> !info codeblocks | ubuntu_
[11:27] <Seveas> The_ManU_212, yes
[11:27] <pbn> Hello, when installing Ubuntu from CD, how can I tell it *not* to show me its splashscreen, but instead to show me all of what it is doing... In grub you have to remove "quiet splash", but here it's not grub, it's booting from the CD...
[11:27] <Seveas> ubuntu_, it is in intrepid
[11:27] <Seveas> !info codeblocks intrepid
[11:28] <The_ManU_212> Seveas is it more secure to run sudo apt-get dist-upgrade then the adept-manager?
[11:28] <Jordan_U> lacy: If you want to get really serious I suggest taking a course in unix, if you just want to be able to use Ubuntu as a Desktop machine you don't need to learn unix, but I highly recommend the experience :)
[11:28] <knut> can anyone tell me an Mandriva CHannel?
[11:28] <vrivett> has anyone had much experience with virtualbox
[11:28] <Seveas> The_ManU_212, doesn't matter much, but this was easier for me to explain as I don't know adept-manager :)
[11:28] <Seveas> knut, #mandriva perhaps?
[11:28] <knut> oh :-)
[11:28] <Jordan_U> !anyone | vrivett
[11:29] <The_ManU_212> Seveas it is a frontend for kde
[11:29] <ortsvorsteher> !nvidia
[11:29] <ubuntu_> ok, thanks
[11:29] <Seveas> The_ManU_212, yes, I know that much :) I don't use kde
[11:29] <Guest81027> ubuntu 5.10
[11:29] <ubuntu_> so it will be included in intrepid ibex, but it's not in hardy and previous releases, right?
[11:29] <djhash> housetv.com
[11:29] <turtles> having some trouble with my mdadm array, anyone able to help?
[11:29] <ubuntu_> thanks Seveas
[11:29] <Seveas> !ops | djhash spamming
[11:30] <Jordan_U> The_ManU_212: To actually upgrade from one release to another you should follow the upgrade instructions, for just getting package updates it really makes no difference
[11:30] <runemaste> bullgard4: http://www.nopaste.com/p/aEKobBfybb
[11:30] <The_ManU_212> Seveas ok to get more experience in using a terminal, how to update thes system without using a frontend (which steps) and is there a differnce between updating the system and upgrading to a new distro?
[11:30] <vrivett> I am running vbox and want to connect to the Remote Desktop which allows me to install the OS.  I have enabled the desktop and set the port.  When I use the Terminal Server Client (on the same machine) to connect what should I connect to?  Localhost:portnumber?
[11:31] <The_ManU_212> Jordan_U: ok
[11:31] <Seveas> The_ManU_212, updating to a newer version of ubuntu just means updating more packages :)
[11:31] <c0re-X> guys, where to remove the function, that when I put my mouse cursor to the window that is in the back from the front one, it changes the windows, like autoclicks
[11:31] <Chris7mas> The_ManU_212: you can sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
[11:31] <c0re-X> its annoying :/
[11:32] <Chris7mas> and to upgrade to a new release use sudo apt-get dist-upgrade instead of upgrade, after you changed the codename in /etc/apt/sources.list
[11:32] <itai-michaelson> i have grub error 2 in grub "grub loading" is stuck - how do i fix it?
[11:32] <itai-michaelson> hardy\
[11:32] <Romster> c0re-X, that would be sloppy focus. and the window manager handles that.
[11:33] <bullgard4> runemaste: The first section makes visible your hard disk. The first section starts with "*-disk". This is the IDE hard disk drive you have been asking for.
[11:34] <francis> hey
[11:34] <runemaste> umm... the ide disk is 80gb... the sata disk is 160gb....        size: 149GiB (160GB)
[11:34] <baal__> c0re-X: go to menu: system>preferences>window & change Window selection
[11:34] <Jordan_U> Chris7mas: That is not generally recommended as update-manager provides extra checks
[11:35] <francis> How do I connect to different servers on XChat IRC chat?
[11:35] <vrivett> how do i connect to a vbox usning the remote desktop feature
[11:35] <Jordan_U> !upgrade | Chris7mas The_ManU_212
[11:36] <zafle> allright i'm out of here later
[11:36] <lacy> isn't learning Unix harder?
[11:38] <damnicks2> I find the usuage of linux and unix similiar to each others
[11:38] <damnicks2> just different commands here and there
[11:38] <Jordan_U> lacy: Yes, and again, it's not at all necessary. I just think that it is very powerful for what I like to do and interesting, my interest and goals may differ from yours though :)
[11:38] <damnicks2> Such as dir and ls to list directories
[11:39] <cbx33> hey guys, wondering if anyone can help me - I have a linux machine as a gateway to the internet.....all internet traffic works
[11:39] <cbx33> apart from Skype
[11:39] <cbx33> any ideas?
[11:39] <cbx33> it used to work when this machien was NAT'd
[11:40] <bullgard4> runemaste: May be, the hdparm command will help you.
[11:40] <lacy>  Well for  someone new  only  been useing linux for 1week  on ubuntu
[11:40] <vrivett> try to configure skype to use port 80
[11:40] <cbx33> vrivett, yeh, but it should work
[11:40] <cbx33> I'd prefer to find out why it's not working
[11:41] <vrivett> Virtualbox experiece anyone?
[11:41] <cbx33> a little
[11:41] <ShOOnyata> Hi I'd like to use linux as my primary system on my iMac, I've read there are support problems with the keyboard and other stuff
[11:41] <zch> good
[11:41] <vrivett> cbx have you ever connected using the RDP to install an OS
[11:41] <cbx33> no...
[11:42] <vrivett> #cbx33 thanks
[11:42] <cbx33> sorry
[11:42] <cbx33> was going to use qemu with vnc the other day
[11:42] <cbx33> but never got round to it
[11:42] <turtles> having some trouble with my mdadm array, anyone able to help? getting desperate :p
[11:42] <cbx33> turtles, what's up?
[11:43] <turtles> cbx33: I added another disk to my PC and I think I moved the sata ports around and now mdadm doesn't recognize my array
[11:43] <ShOOnyata> Does anyone use ubuntu on a recent iMac ?
[11:43] <Jordan_U> ShOOnyata: I do
[11:43] <cbx33> turtles, I thought it used UUIDs?
[11:43] <lacy>  i do have 1 question now im running daul sli 9600gt but why does this x-chat script sysinfo see my system stats diffrent  is it a limitation ? of the software
[11:43] <Jordan_U> ShOOnyata: Sorry, misread, I run it on a macbook, not an imac specifically
[11:44] <turtles> cbx33: I've only just set it up so I'm new with mdadm but that was my understanding too... I think the /dev/sd* changed for the disk to a different disk which is why
[11:44] <cbx33> ahhh
[11:44] <cbx33> hmm
[11:44] <Fish-Face> Hi #ubuntu! The screen dimming on my gutsy install is behaving oddly
[11:44] <Fish-Face> It shouldn't be dimming at all on AC power
[11:44] <ShOOnyata> Jordan_U, have both osx and linux running ? I was wondering if it was worth getting rid of osx
[11:45] <cbx33> turtles...hang on
[11:45] <Jordan_U> ShOOnyata: You should keep OSX, if nothing else because firmware updates are only installable through it
[11:45] <cbx33> turtles, just looked at my mdadm.conf file
[11:45] <cbx33> it uses UUIDs to identify
[11:45] <cbx33> hmmm
[11:45] <cbx33> very odd
[11:45] <zezom> I'
[11:46] <Mean-Machine> hello from the SoftwareFreedomDay 08 in Dublin :D
[11:46] <turtles> can I check the disks to make sure the UUIDs are correct / and or modify the mdadm.conf file?
[11:46] <cbx33> what type of RAID?
[11:46] <turtles> cbx33: raid 5
[11:46] <cbx33> hmmm
[11:46] <cbx33> I only have a raid1
[11:47] <runemaste> bullgard4: how come only one hard disk has shown up?
[11:47] <cbx33> you'd presumably need to get the raid working
[11:47] <cbx33> to modify the array
[11:47] <cbx33> I'm assuming nothing works?
[11:47] <cbx33> it doesn't boot as degraded?
[11:48] <turtles> cbx33: not sure how to tell
[11:48] <cbx33> well
[11:48] <cbx33> it doesn't boot?
[11:48] <zezom> i've lost the network manager icon in my menu bar. does any one know how to get it back. It dosn't seem to be in the Add to panel menu.
[11:48] <phar0z> Is it allowed to ask a specific here that describes a problem I have in Kubuntu?
[11:48] <turtles> the array was just a data array, my ubuntu still boots but all I see is unallocated disks in gparted
[11:48] <cbx33> ahhh ok
[11:48] <cbx33> hang on turtles
[11:48] <bullgard4> runemaste: If you have two hard disks and only one shows up in  http://www.nopaste.com/p/aEKobBfybb, then there is a hardware problem with the second hard disk. May be, you did not set the jumpers on your motherboard correctly.
[11:49] <Shoonyata> Jordan_U, Sorry VirtualBox killed my ubuntu session
[11:49] <cbx33> turtles,
[11:49] <cbx33> do sudo fdisk /dev/sdX
[11:49] <sunru> hello, whats the formula swap partition size again?
[11:49] <Shoonyata> Jordan_U, did you triple boot (osx / ubuntu / windows) ?
[11:50] <cbx33> sunru, it used to be 1.5 x RAM
[11:50] <Jordan_U> Shoonyata: No, just OSX and Linux
[11:50] <cbx33> turtles, where X is the hdd identifier?
[11:50] <erUSUL> sunru: if you want to hibernate (suspend to disk) swap == ram
[11:50] <Jampiter> Hi
[11:50] <Jampiter> How do I add package repositories to apt-get?
[11:50] <cbx33> and then when it comes up with the prompt
[11:50] <cbx33> type p <enter>
[11:50] <runemaste> if i just plug the ide in it works but if i plug in both only the sata works... does that really mean hardware problem? :(
[11:50] <damnicks2> Does anybody know if webcams in yahoo messenger or voice chat work in ubuntu?
[11:51] <turtles> cbx33: want me to pastebin it?
[11:51] <cbx33> sure or pm
[11:51] <snuxoll> there we go, fixed badly antialiased fonts
[11:51] <snuxoll> bah, wrong channel
[11:51] <cbx33> that's it?
[11:52] <turtles> they're the three disks from the array
[11:52] <cbx33> ok
[11:52] <cbx33> it doesn't say there are any partitions on there
[11:52] <turtles> yeah :S
[11:52] <Jampiter> Anyone?
[11:52] <cbx33> hmm
[11:52] <cbx33> I can't remember if you get the option to use the whole disk, or partition it?
[11:52] <cbx33> I have 2 partitions
[11:52] <cbx33> swap and rootfs
[11:52] <The_ManU_212> Chris7mas: thx
[11:53] <turtles> oh, mine would be the whole disk I think
[11:53] <cbx33> ok
[11:53] <turtles> cbx33: /dev/md0 would be the device with the partition on it I think
[11:53] <The_ManU_212> Seveas thx for your help
[11:53] <turtles> I'm not really sure how it all works tbh
[11:53] <petrele> #ubuntu-cn
[11:54] <cbx33> ok
[11:54] <cbx33> heheh
[11:54] <turtles> is there anyway to make /dev/md0 active?
[11:54] <reinis_> guys how to kill process?

[11:56] <turtles> cbx33: thanks for your help :) might just nuke and start again
[11:56] <eirik-eee> reinis_: try "top" as well. and an easy way to kill an app that has crashed,e.g. "killall firefox" if you dont wanna look for the pid and know the process name
[11:56] <cbx33> turtles, may be an idea
[11:56] <cbx33> :)
[11:56] <petrele> before install compiz-fusion, everything is all right
[11:57] <reinis_> ok ill try
[11:57] <cbx33> turtles, LVM is good for just randomly adding volumes
[11:57] <cbx33> but
[11:57] <petrele> anyone known about it?
[11:57] <cbx33> you pay for it being harder to read if something goes wrong
[11:57] <Jampiter> Anyone at all? Please help me!
[11:57] <reinis_> omg ubuntu is sex!
[11:57] <turtles> cbx33: haha I'm not sure it could get much harder :P yeah I looked into it but I didn't have the patience to sit down and read about it properly
[11:57] <reinis_> :D
[11:58] <Jampiter> Never mind.
[11:58] <cbx33> turtles, hahah
[11:58] <cbx33> Jampiter, what's up?

[12:21] <erUSUL> bhindi: i already told you to install zenmap so you can run nmap from a gui
[12:21] <eross> does the cairo library support get/set pixel?
[12:21] <Cesar-Augusto> Ubuntu 8.04
[12:21] <erUSUL> !info zenmap | bhindi
[12:21] <magnetron> bhindi, if you want to run nmap in a graphical way, install "zenmap"
[12:21] <csilk> Bhaal,  the cmd is  nmap
[12:21] <bhindi> i install this zemap
[12:21] <magnetron> erUSUL, we seem to match eachothers advices
[12:22] <AplaEgw> is ubuntu compatible with nvidia gtx260 graphic cards?
[12:22] <murdok> anyone knows what's the command in xchat to set away off?
[12:22] <magnetron> Cesar-Augusto, español? portugues?

[12:22] <Cesar-Augusto> oi
[12:22] <Cesar-Augusto> ﻿magnetron
[12:22] <Cesar-Augusto> o que ?
[12:22] <eross> googling shows cairo doen't, but you can use a rectangle to draw a pixle
[12:22] <zylche> Does anyone here have an idea on how I can get control over my volume? I can only have it max or off from the volume control and the only way I've seen that can vary it is under vlc's volume setting..
[12:22] <csilk> AplaEgw,  yes
[12:23] <Cesar-Augusto> ﻿magnetron não te entendi .
[12:23] <erUSUL> Cesar-Augusto: a 9250 ati card works well with the free radeon drivers... there is no nee to install fglrx
[12:23] <csilk> doesn't system>administration>hardware drivers do it for you?
[12:23] <csilk> zylche,  i had that issue in the older ubuntu versions
[12:23] <csilk> ubuntu 8.x fixed the issue for me
[12:23] <zylche> I'm on the latest non-beta release currently..
[12:23] <zylche> so no ideas?
[12:23] <AplaEgw> does ubuntu supports directx9c or 10?
[12:24] <csilk> zylche,  in that case i'd file a bug report if no one gives you an answer here
[12:24] <sunru> AplaEgw: unrelated to linux, look at wine or codeweavers.
[12:24] <erUSUL> AplaEgw: you can install dx 9 on wine there is how to on the web
[12:24] <magnetron> AplaEgw, Wine supports some parts of directx9 and 10.
[12:24] <aaron> How do i change the default sound card that oss uses? both show up in ossinfo, but ubuntu is using the card i don't want hooked up.
[12:24] <AplaEgw> thank you guys
[12:25] <Ka1> Hey quick REALLY noobish question for anyone
[12:25] <magnetron> erUSUL, installing dx9 in wine usually wrecks the existing dx9 support in wine
[12:25] <Cesar-Augusto> ﻿erUSUL como eu faço para saber qual driver , ela está usando ?
[12:25] <csilk> system>preferences>sound   < aaron
[12:25] <Ka1> How do I create a folder called "codecs" in /usr/local/lib/ ?
[12:25] <Cesar-Augusto> erUSUL how do I know which driver, she is wearing?
[12:25] <erUSUL> Cesar-Augusto: mira no log de X /var/log/Xorg.0.log para axuda en portugues vaia a #ubuntu-pt
[12:25] <Cesar-Augusto> ok
[12:25] <aaron> csilk that allows me to change between alsa/oss, but i dont see where i can choose the cards themselves
[12:26] <Cesar-Augusto> :)
[12:26] <erUSUL> Ka1: sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/lib/codecs
[12:26] <Ka1> thank you ^^
[12:26] <dib_> whats the -p for?
[12:26] <Tm_T> dib_: create whole path (where needed)
[12:27] <dib_> cool
[12:27] <dib_> thanks
[12:27] <erUSUL> dib_: it creates all the folders in case one in the path is missing
[12:27] <csilk> he doesnt need the whole path
[12:27] <csilk> hence the word "in"
[12:27] <Ka1> erUSUL: If wondering, I am trying to get Codecs for .RM files ><
[12:28] <AplaEgw> i need a specific answer in something concernig dual boot with vista can someone prive me please?
[12:28] <damnicks2> I possibly can

[12:28] <bhindi> plz where i can run nmap and now i insatll zenmap now wat i do
[12:29] <bhindi> yes sir
[12:29] <aaron> How do i change the default sound card that oss uses? both show up in ossinfo, but ubuntu is using the card i don't want hooked up.  Ubuntu sound options only allow me to choose from also or oss, not the actual cards.
[12:29] <magnetron> bhindi, type this in the terminal: zenmap &
[12:29] <bhindi> ok
[12:29] <sunru> so apt-get install kubuntu-desktop pretty much turns ubuntu into kubuntu ?
[12:29] <Ka1> aaron: sys>pref>sounds
[12:29] <Ka1> change to OSS
[12:29] <csilk> aapoppi,  you still there?
[12:30] <dib_> matthewyax, try ZoneMinder it has a web interface
[12:30] <bhindi> message nonrooot user sir
[12:30] <aaron> Kal - i got that far, programs are now using the oss driver for the wrong card though.
[12:30] <csilk> aapoppi, asound conf list
[12:30] <csilk> ** asoundconf list
[12:30] <csilk> run that command
[12:30] <Ka1> aaron: Out of my hands :P I apologise but I am not skilled in multi-cards.
[12:30] <aaron> ok
[12:31] <csilk> then asoundconf set-default-card CARD NAME
[12:31] <csilk> that will set a default sound card for you
[12:31] <aaron> isnt asound for alsa?
[12:31] <matthewyax> ok... heres what I want, maybe zone minder will do this... right now I am deployed to Iraq, and there has been a sieres of room breakins... I want it to yell out... hey get the **** out
[12:31] <csilk> aapoppi, did not want to use alsa?
[12:31] <csilk> **did you not
[12:32] <Ka1> Any sound gurus here? ^^
[12:32] <aaron> trying for oss with this creative card
[12:32] <matthewyax> kinda like the older 4000 sieres creative could do
[12:33] <fogobogo> Ka1: i have 2 ears
[12:33] <fogobogo> Ka1: thats just like stereo!
[12:33] <sunru> Ka1: i'm a trained sound eng
[12:34] <bullgard4> "~$ rwall localhost <<< hello; localhost: RPC: Program not registered."  "~$ /etc/init.d/portmap start; * Starting portmap daemon... ; * Already running.  [ OK ]"  How to repair?
[12:34] <Ka1> (: Great, I am having issues with OSS4 compatability with my 64bit system, with ALSA I couldn't get even the slightest of a beep out of my laptop but OSS4 allowed for 2/5 speakers to function, Have a minute to further discuss in PM?
[12:34] <Romster> sunru, neat i've done live mixing for bands.
[12:35] <csilk> aapoppi,  i think oss will default to the default selected alsa card anyway
[12:35] <csilk> so you should still try what i said
[12:35] <sunru> Ka1: no idea!
[12:35] <aaron> csilk - asoundconf list doesn't return anything.  should i try re-installing alsa?
[12:36] <Ka1> eep! ><
[12:37] <airtonix> aaron, doesnt the volume control applet allow you to change the device being used?
[12:37] <csilk> erm
[12:37] <aaron> i can set volumes for either card, but programs still appear to be going to the other card
[12:37] <csilk> hmm
[12:37] <csilk> if you dont have alsa installed then i guess it wouldnt list anything
[12:38] <bestadvocate> hello, can anyone point me to some documentation that helps with figuring out troubleshooting getting a microphone to work?  I'd be most obliged, I've tried several things now, and so far all i can end up doing is talking to myself through my external speakers lol
[12:38] <airtonix> csilk, aaron i remember being able to shoose my sound device under both my volume control applet and the menu option in system ->  preferences : mulimedia systems selector
[12:39] <Pinchiukas> how much bandwidth would a p3 500MHz handle routing with realtek and with 3com cards?

[12:42] <Relaed> Zirodaeee, thx!
[12:42] <magnetron> matthewyax, "motion" is a software for motion detection
[12:42] <airtonix> Relaed, i think because for feisty the virtualbox setup was compiled
[12:42] <airtonix> Relaed, although have you searched on the virtualbox site?
[12:42] <matthewyax> ok that one I tried, I go to 192.168.0.105:8000 and I get nuthin.... go to 192.168.0.105:8001 and I get blank screen
[12:43] <Relaed> airtonix, Yes, I did, there is no Vbox Distribution, though I even find one for Dapper Drake
[12:44] <geboy> whats vbox
[12:44] <airtonix> Relaed, have a look on howtoforge.com for a guide about compiling vbox for feisty
[12:44] <geboy> sorry noob here

[12:46] <Jampiter> How do I completely remove a package with Apt-get?

[12:47] <airtonix> Jampiter, where --purge removes all config files installed.
[12:48] <Jampiter> Excellent :) Thanks :D
[12:48] <sugi> if anyone knows PlayOnLinux, does anyone know if version 3.1 still have liveinstall?!?!?!?!

[12:50] <csilk> firefox 3 on ubuntu is a joke
[12:51] <timo> hi my ubuntu just shutdown by itself ?
[12:51] <Decepticon> if i have package X installed via apt-get, and apt-get only gives me version 1.2.5 whereas the latest version is 1.2.6 by source, how can i upgrade to the latest version of source while keeping everything related to this program functional and without doestrying anything and to upgrade seamlessly?
[12:52] <geboy> i might unite my router and squid cache in a ubuntu box. but i hesitate with the ease gui in mikrotik winbox. can i have similar gui for managing bandwith of clients in a ubuntu?

[12:53] <leetone> I just tried to downgrade to firefox 2, but firefox 3 was still installed, so now both installs are completely FUBAR: how can I get firefox 3 back to "normal"

[12:53] <bhindi> QUITTING!
[12:53] <bhindi> wats that mean sir
[12:54] <Decepticon> airtonix, so i use 'sudo checkinstall' instead of 'sudo make install' after ive done './configure' and 'make' for the source package?
[12:54] <Guest343> How do I find out where something I installed via synaptic is located under "/"
[12:54] <zoed> timo: did you do anything special that made ubuntu shut down?

[12:55] <bhindi> You requested a scan type which requires root privileges. wats that mean sir

[12:56] <zoed> timo: sorry, I don't have myth
[12:56] <bullgard4> leetone: purge both DEB packages. Then re-install the firefox 3 DEB program package.
[12:56] <bhindi> You requested a scan type which requires root privileges. wats that mean sir
[12:56] <timo> ok thanks zoed
[12:56] <bhindi> You requested a scan type which requires root privileges. <------------------- wats that mean sir
[12:56] <zoed> bhindi: what program gives you that ouput?
[12:56] <bestadvocate> How do you change your default microphone, and check settings to see if they work?
[12:57] <bhindi> is that any body help me
[12:57] <bhindi> nmap
[12:57] <timo> just gona Finnish watching eastenders
[12:57] <bhindi> zoed sir
[12:57] <leetone> question: I'm going to try and uninstall everything firefox through the synaptic package manager, then reinstall it with the add and remove apps thing.  Is this a bad idea?
[12:57] <zoed> bhindi: you have to run as root to do that scan type, exactly as the message says.
[12:58] <dr_willis> leetone,  one has to wonder why you are wanting to uninstall/reinstall firefox.
[12:58] <zoed> bhindi: sudo nmap youparamters
[12:58] <bhindi> oks sir
[12:58] <bestadvocate> leetone: i could see you having problems since like synapic uses sudo privlages to install and firefox uses user level
[12:59] <leetone> as I said before: I tried downgrading to ff2, but I didn't uninstall 3, so now both are FUBAR
[12:59] <leetone> so I figure by just reinstalling one, it'd fix it
[13:00] <airtonix> i knew a mage once...leetjay
[13:00] <bestadvocate> leetone, im no expert, sounds liek a plan
[13:00] <leetone> whats the worst that can happen
[13:01] <dib_> bye
[13:01] <bestadvocate> leetone: you lose personal settings, cant run firefox ?
[13:02] <dr_willis> leetone,   you may want to try resetting your firefox settings.  - remove/reinstalling stuff under linux  is 'windows thinking'
[13:02] <dr_willis> Why would you 'downgrade' to ff2? you can have FF2 and FF3 installed at the same time.
[13:02] <leetone> obviously not
[13:03] <Romster> yoru data resides in ~/.mozilla
[13:03] <leetone> mine's died something horrid
[13:03] <Romster> your*
[13:03] <dr_willis> leetone,  i have them both installed all the same time...  So the issue very well may be your users settings. not the FF installs
[13:03] <Sergiu> hi, anyone know, does ubuntu have the screen keyboard, or if its possible to install it from any sources
[13:03] <leetone> listen
[13:03] <mlikos> I work on a project administration and management of SNMP , i need help plz
[13:04] <leetone> 3 worked fine when it was installed before, I installed 2, then it didn't work
[13:04] <sugi> does anyone us playonlinx?
[13:04] <magnetron> Sergiu, you should be able to activate it via System > Preferences
[13:04] <l3dx> my server tends to crash/freeze quite frequently the last days. is there a log where I can try to determine the reason for this?
[13:04] <Decepticon> can i use checkinstall to upgrade a package from apt-get repository to a higher source version number?
[13:04] <leetone> uninstalled that one, opened 3 and it tries to load 2 and 3 at the same time
[13:05] <leetone> its hard to describe, but neither 2 or 3 work
[13:05] <Sergiu> magnetron thx
[13:05] <bestadvocate> bah screw getting the mic to work im just going back to windows lol
[13:05] <dr_willis>  leetone  if you wish to totally remove things - use the package manager, and the purge option - then reinstall them. However i would test them out with a 'new' user befor getting too extreme.
[13:06] <zoed> !pastebin > bhindi
[13:06] <dr_willis> leetone,  if it is a 'user configuration' issue. then the remove/reinstalling wont fix much of anything.
[13:06] <leetone> it is an installation issue
[13:06] <leetone> 3 worked fine, now it doesn't
[13:07] <leetone> haven't done anything besides used FF all day
[13:07] <leetone> whats the purge option?
[13:07] <dr_willis> leetone,  ive not seen 'proof' of  it being an installation issue.. Unless you test it with a totally new user.. and they have the same issue.. then that would be a good test to show its a installation issue
[13:07] <dr_willis> purge = removes all configuration files for a package in addation to the package.
[13:07] <leetone> okay, I'll try that
[13:10] <Eeyore> Hi
[13:11] <Eeyore> Since recently, "gphoto2 --get-all-files" failes with "Error (-60: 'Could not lock the device')", but "sudo gphoto2 --get-all-files" works fine. Why?
[13:11] <bhindi> i stopped sir
[13:13] <leetone> okay, firefox works fine now in the new user
[13:13] <petrele> is there anyone encounter with GLIB-CRYTICAL errors
[13:13] <leetone> so its the user issue thing ^^;;
[13:13] <Vladimir[LV]> Hello..! I have many domains in my /var/www, and for every domain is apache error log /var/www/domain.com/logs/error.log, how I can enable in php error logging for every domain?

[13:14] <Vladimir[LV]> :-)
[13:16] <leetone> firefox 3 isn't working for me on my main account, yet it works on my account that I just made then.  The broken firefox seems to load parts of both 2 and 3 (because I had both firefox 2 and 3 installed, since this time neither have worked), even though I have uninstalled firefox 2
[13:17] <leetone> any ideas on how to fix it?
[13:17] <dinast1> try reinstalling 3
[13:17] <dooglus> leetone: you can make a new profile
[13:17] <dooglus> leetone: firefox -ProfileManager
[13:18] <DimensionalRift> or remove firefox and reinstall
[13:18] <amanulla> how to back up all my softwares installed on my system onto a cd so that i can run and install it in a system with out internet facility
[13:18] <zachary> I would erase the .mozilla or .firefox folder
[13:18] <Decepticon> is it advisable to use checkinstall to upgrade a package i installed from apt-get but has a more recent version in source only (without uninstalling my original install and installing straight up and without messing up configuration files/settings/functional setup)
[13:18] <dooglus> zachary: you'd lose your bookmarks
[13:18] <leetone> how do I do this exactly?  synaptic package?
[13:18] <amanulla> i think for this there is a software like atp to cd
[13:18] <zachary> export your bookmarks :)
[13:18] <amanulla> any one have an idea about it?
[13:19] <erUSUL> !aptoncd
[13:19] <dr_willis> leetone,  the users have their own .firefox (or was it .mozilla) directory with all their settings in it. You could move that directory somewhere. thus resetting their settings back to defaults. and try running firefox again
[13:20] <leetone> dr_willis: this sounds good, how do I do this exactly?
[13:20] <dr_willis> leetone,  mv .mozilla/ .mozilla_old
[13:20] <dr_willis>         would move them somewhere 'safe'  BASH basics.
[13:21] <amanulla> any copmmand to get this "APTonC"
[13:21] <amanulla> installed
[13:21] <leetone> so 'safe' would basically be anywhere I can keep track of them then?
[13:21] <dr_willis> leetone,  the 'point' to rember is that removing packages do NOT affect the users settings
[13:21] <erUSUL> !software | amanulla
[13:21] <dr_willis> leetone,  it moves them to a different named directory. move them whever you want.
[13:22] <leetone> so "﻿mv .mozilla/ .mozilla_old" was a command was it?
[13:22] <erUSUL> leetone: indeed
[13:22] <leetone> no ~ in front, or any sudo su?
[13:23] <dr_willis> leetone,  these are USER settings in the users home dir..  Sudo is for 'system/root' stuff
[13:23] <dr_willis> so No sudo and you do NOT want to use 'sudo su'  :)
[13:23] <leetone> :) just checking
[13:23] <petrele> when i ran the emerald, it exit with the error: (emerald-theme-manager:9429): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_key_file_set_string: assertion `string != NULL' failed
[13:23] <petrele> Segmentation fault
[13:23] <petrele> can anyone help me
[13:23] <dr_willis> forget about 'sudo su' use 'sudo -s' or 'sudo -i' in the rare cases youneed a root shell
[13:25] <geboy> does ebox instalation cd has included the squid in it?
[13:27] <amanulla> i wnat to back up my softwares installed on system
[13:27]  * dr_willis wonders what 'ebox' is
[13:27] <dr_willis> !clone
[13:27] <zoed> !info ebox | dr_willis
[13:27] <leetone> okay, tried running ﻿mv .mozilla/ .mozilla_old, it says that mv: cannot stat `.mozilla/': No such file or directory
[13:27] <dr_willis> zoed,  that makes it so clear. :)
[13:27] <hess> i have installed "Hardy" on my AMD turion 64 x2 laptop...after reboot cpu fans work continuously...what is wrong?
[13:27] <zoed> dr_willis: yeah, right ;)
[13:27] <zoed> !ebox
[13:27] <zoed> ah, ok :)
[13:28] <Tv> openoffice crashes on startup for me on hardy; anyone know if this is a known bug? couldn't find it on a quick browse on bugs.ubuntu.com
[13:28] <dr_willis> leetone,  it may be you are in the wrong directory. there should be a  .mozilla in the users home directory. You could use the full path to it ~./mozilla also
[13:28] <dooglus> dr_willis: /
[13:29] <eross> is there a cheap cable tv card i can use that would work out of the box for ubuntu and its various tv apps and maybe even mythtv
[13:29] <dooglus> dr_willis: ie. ~/.mozilla
[13:29] <dr_willis> zoed,  ahh.. that webmin 'replacement' :) i rember looking at that once.
[13:29] <dr_willis> oh yea. :) im dyslizc :)
[13:29] <dr_willis> i always use tab completion.
[13:29] <geboy> webmin has been stopped?
[13:29] <dr_willis> geboy,  its not 'considered safe/secure'

[13:30] <BunTai> i want revenge script for xchat..where should i request?
[13:30] <geboy> then i really need to reinstall my squid box
[13:30] <nde1> hello there, I added some mp3s which are on a smb-share and would like to playback them from rhythmbox but everything remains quiet and I'm wondering what it could be.
[13:30] <geboy> hihi
[13:30] <zoed> !mp3
[13:30] <daedric> WinAmp not running
[13:30] <dr_willis> BunTai,  xchat has a homepage/forums
[13:30] <BunTai> !xchat
[13:30] <nde1> zoed: it did playback the files yesterday though
[13:30] <BunTai> hurm
[13:30] <BunTai> dr_willis: where?
[13:31] <dr_willis> BunTai,  xchat also has a HELP menu item. :)  or use google....
[13:31] <BunTai> i cant find it
[13:31] <dr_willis> BunTai,  or just a wild guess... xchat.org Might be it.
[13:31] <BunTai> anyone here can help?
[13:31] <leetone> does anyone know which file/directory I need to move to reset firefox, as my main account has a stuffed profile
[13:31] <geboy> dr_willis: so the ebox may also manage squid and shaping bandwidth using gui?
[13:31] <leetone> if that made sense
[13:31] <leetone> lol
[13:31] <dooglus> leetone: ~/.mozilla/
[13:31] <leetone> thanks
[13:32] <dr_willis> ~$ mv /home/willis/.mozilla/  /home/willis/mozilla_Backup
[13:32] <zoed> leetone: maybe you can start firefox with "firefox -ProfileManager" and add a new profile?
[13:32] <dr_willis> geboy,  no idea what features it has.
[13:32] <leetone> no, I need to reset an existing one
[13:32] <geboy> owh :(
[13:33] <dr_willis> leetone,  that will remove the settings.. thus resetting them to the initial defaults
[13:33] <geboy> thx dr_willis
[13:33] <dr_willis> leetone,  if that dir is not there.. firefox makes a new one with defaults.
[13:33] <leetone> okay, we'll try that
[13:33] <dr_willis> or use the firefox -ProfileManager options like zoed  suggested
[13:33] <Minty95> BunTai, /join #xchat in freenode
[13:34] <bullgard4> "~$ rwall localhost <<< hello; localhost: RPC: Program not registered."  "~$ /etc/init.d/portmap start; * Starting portmap daemon... ; * Already running.  [ OK ]"  How to repair?
[13:34] <BunTai> Minty95: im in
[13:34] <leetone> dr_willis: I'm guessing just type firefox -ProfileManager into the terminal
[13:34] <zoed> leetone: exactly
[13:34] <Minty95> BunTai, wasn't looking, am newish to xchat as well, so can't help you
[13:36] <wiehan> hey there folks, does anyone no the latest on the ipod linux (podzilla) - I read on the wikipedia page that they are moving servers (as of spetember 2008), and it seems their website www.ipodlinux.org is down, how can I get the latest version on my ipod, anyone know of a different site or news??
[13:36] <dr_willis> leetone,  No idea. I just reset the directory by moving it. I rarely use the -Profile*** stuff       Theres a dozen ways to do the same thing
[13:36] <leetone> yeah, just tried the profile manager thing in the terminal, it just opened firefox :|
[13:37] <leetone> dr_willis: I think your ideas would work if we could work out the right directory
[13:37] <uriol> hello
[13:37] <ganastasiou> hello everyone
[13:37] <dr_willis> i gave the full path to the right directory earlier in my example leetone
[13:37] <dr_willis>  mv /home/willis/.mozilla/  /home/willis/mozilla_Backup

[13:43] <leetone> I did, but  it didn't fix it

[13:45] <dr_willis> leetone,  if firefox works proplery for a new user, then its possible its some other old user setting messing with it, but i cant imagine what one.
[13:45] <dr_willis> leetone,  since .mozilla is where they are all kept.
[13:46] <leetone> dr_willis: if it helps, all my problems only occured when I installed firefox 2, while 3 was also installed (and yet I am told they can be installed both at the same time)
[13:47] <dr_willis> leetone,  they can both work together fine.
[13:47] <dr_willis> FF3 and FF2 may try to import each others settings.. that can cause issues with some plugins/extensions.. but removing the .mozilla dir - should reset them both to defaults
[13:49] <amanulla> how to install and use apton cd
[13:49] <amanulla> ......
[13:50] <leetone> dr_willis: whenever I open either FF2 or 3, it opens 2, but it also opens another window saying "starting up firefox", which stays there for a while after firefox gets closed
[13:51] <leetone> plugins for neither work
[13:51] <amanulla> how to install and use apton cd
[13:51] <amanulla> ......
[13:51] <amanulla> i wnat to back up my softwares installed on system
[13:51] <amanulla> any command to get this "APTonC"
[13:52] <dr_willis> leetone,  i would remove the one you dont want to use. Ive noticed that whatever firefox you launch first . if you try to run the other  it still reruns the  earlier one. ie: you cant  run FF2 and FF3 at the same time.
[13:52] <amanulla> any one have an idea about it?
[13:52] <amanulla> i think for this there is a software like atp to cd

[13:53] <amanulla> how to install and use apton cd
[13:53] <dr_willis> aptoncd - copies packages to a cd so you can use them as a repo. I belive
[13:53] <zoed> !aptoncd
[13:53] <amanulla> any command to get this "APTonC"
[13:54] <dr_willis> install the package.. read its docs?
[13:54] <dr_willis> its in the repos.. install it like you do anything else..

 Found: aptoncd          package name is 'aptoncd' it seems.
[13:55] <amanulla> amanulla@amanulla-laptop:~$ sudo apt get-install APTonCD[sudo] password for amanulla:
[13:55] <amanulla> sudo: apt: command not found
[13:56] <christoph3307> amanulla:  sudo apt-get install aptoncd
[13:56] <dr_willis> amanulla,  use the PROPER package name - Linux is CaSe SeneSitivE
[13:56] <christoph3307> amanulla: works for me this way
[13:56] <leetone> dr_willis: okay, I've removed FF2, but its still doing the same (I removed with the add/remove apps menu), I'm thinking there's still some remnants leftover, so perhaps I should try removing some packages if there's any left?
[13:56] <dr_willis> leetone,  could try removing them both if you want. dont use the add/remove apps menu. use synaptic, it has the purge options as well
[13:56] <jim_wounded> amanulla: aptoncd ,do not use capitals
[13:56] <amanulla> ok i got it
[13:57] <amanulla> im installing
[13:57] <leetone> okay, sounds good :)
[13:57] <dr_willis> $ sudo apt-get remove --purge firefox-2
[13:57] <dr_willis> $ sudo apt-get remove --purge firefox
[13:57] <dr_willis> $ sudo apt-get install  firefox
[13:57] <dr_willis> I doubt if that will help much.. but You may have gotten somthing messed up badly
[13:58] <christoph3307> dr_willis: what is --purge for?
[13:58] <dr_willis> amanulla,    http://aptoncd.sourceforge.net/          for docs on the tool
[13:58] <jim_wounded> now that aptoncd was brought to subject, does anyone know how can i turn my installation to a live cd? NOT remaster the live cd, turn MY installation to it
[13:58] <dr_willis> purge removes ALL related configs.. but NOT ones in the users home dirs.
[13:58] <christoph3307> dr_willis: okay, thx
[13:58] <dr_willis> jim_wounded,  ive seen some scripts that do that.. but not sure how well they work with ubuntu
[13:59] <jim_wounded> dr_willis: why what's wrong with ubuntu
[13:59] <amanulla> i have installed it successfully where can i find iti to use
[13:59] <dr_willis> jim_wounded,  Nothing is wrong with it.. its a complex task however.. and a lot can go wrong.
[13:59] <dr_willis> jim_wounded,  plus my installed system wouldent fit on a live DVD :)

[14:03] <christoph3307> amanulla: yes
[14:03] <dr_willis> amanulla,  I  imagine we have NO idea what it  is you are doing exactly. if you are using aptoncd - I suggest you go read its docs FIRST.
[14:03] <amanulla> dr_willis:i installed it and im using it
[14:04] <dr_willis> amanulla,  http://aptoncd.sourceforge.net/doc-manual.html

[14:05] <dr_willis> leetone,  if everything works fine for that 'new' user. You could just use the new user. :)
[14:05] <amanulla> ok
[14:05] <christoph3307> if you want to back up on another device just copy the image there. but i don't know if it is possible to add an image to the repos... but it works well if you burn it to cd
[14:06] <Pretto> christoph3307,  as far as i know you can't
[14:06] <Pretto>  christoph3307 but you can restore the iso using aptoncd too

[14:25] <bn43> hi I'm having a problem with smtpselect on thunderbird
[14:25] <jrib> DJ_HaMsTa: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[14:25] <DJ_HaMsTa> ah
[14:25] <DJ_HaMsTa> thank you!
[14:25] <perlsyntax__> i noi not sure how to make that file
[14:25] <bn43> even tho selecting the right smtp, the old one still applies
[14:25] <jrib> perlsyntax__: use any text editor
[14:26] <bn43> has anyone had this experience?
[14:26] <perlsyntax__> like this mkdir.emacs
[14:26] <jrib> perlsyntax__: no, mkdir is not a text editor
[14:26] <radovich> anyone knows how to configure X from scratch, and make it use kde and kdm by default and load it automatically???
[14:26] <perlsyntax__> i try to find out how to make that dir.
[14:26] <erUSUL> perlsyntax__: no "emacs ~/.emacs" is a text file not a directory
[14:27] <perlsyntax__> ok
[14:27] <perlsyntax__> so i copy and paste and put it in my ~/.emacs if i am right.
[14:28] <jrib> perlsyntax__: no, you need to read what it actually says.  You probably want to change the "/path/to/pde/" part
[14:28] <terminator> I can not get displayconfig-rtk to run.  What am I doing wrong.
[14:28] <perlsyntax__> i lost
[14:28] <bn43> anyone know how to change smtp on thunderbird - on the fly?
[14:28] <radovich> bn43, in settings change smtp value
[14:28] <perlsyntax__> oh i see
[14:29] <david2323> gksudo displayconfig-gtk
[14:29] <david2323> my bad
[14:29] <perlsyntax__> how do i do that.
[14:29] <jrib> perlsyntax__: do what?
[14:30] <perlsyntax__> "./path/to/pde"
[14:31] <jrib> perlsyntax__: you saved the pde extensions somewhere right?
[14:31] <bn43> radovich: I want to do this dynamically - I use smtpselect extension but does not work
[14:31] <terminator> gksudo displayconfig-gtk gives me command not found error
[14:31] <perlsyntax__> i untar the file
[14:31] <david2323> terminator, try as root
[14:32] <terminator> I did
[14:32] <perlsyntax__> i not sure how to save it.
[14:32] <jrib> perlsyntax__: yes, then you give the path to it instead of "/path/to/pde" in your file
[14:32] <perlsyntax__> how do i do that.
[14:32] <jrib> perlsyntax__: just move it somewhere you want to keep it.  I don't know the canonical location for emacs stuff
[14:32] <jrib> perlsyntax__: you just write it there with your text editor
[14:32] <perlsyntax__> maybe i give upp on this.
[14:33] <jrib> :/
[14:33] <Amec> jrib, it's the same
[14:33] <erUSUL> jrib:  keep mine in an ~/emacs/ folder

[14:36] <jrib> Amec: you should pastebin the commands you ran (gnome-panel and nautilus) and include the actual output.  That may help someone understand your problem.  Then when you ask your question, include the link to the pastebin

[14:43] <isaac_> Newbie here with an annoying question you've answered 200,000 times before.  How do you compile a program from source code?  If you know of a manual for this, go ahead and tell me to go rtfm, as long as you give me a link to the manual.  I done googled and can't find one.
[14:43] <mkartic_me> thanks

[14:44] <erUSUL> !compile | isaac_ you shouldn't be doing this if you are newbie try first to found a suitable deb
[14:44] <isaac_> I want to because the latest freedroidrpg is not out in the repos yet.
[14:44] <isaac_> And the latest is the *only* one where you can actually finish the game.

[14:47] <arvind_khadri> jrib, how do i edit my root partition...i want to increase its size... a gparted live cd?
[14:47] <isaac_> gparted would work
[14:48] <jrib> arvind_khadri: yeah, backup first
[14:48] <isaac_> Also a live Ubuntu cd or even Puppy Linux
[14:48] <isaac_> But yes, definitely backup files first.
[14:48] <arvind_khadri> jrib, backup what?
[14:48] <isaac_> Everything you don't want to lose on your computer
[14:48] <david2323> Tray this once agin: "sudo gksudo displayconfig-gtk"
[14:49] <erUSUL> arvind_khadri: your root partition :)
[14:49] <isaac_> arvind_khadri Every time you edit partitions there is a risk of something going wrong.
[14:49] <isaac_> If it DID go wrong, all gone files
[14:49] <arvind_khadri> erUSUL, how do i do that :)
[14:49] <erUSUL> arvind_khadri: partimage for example
[14:49] <jatt> should nautilus detect all changes done in a directory? for example if I do touch foo, should nautilus update the directory contents automatically and show the file foo?

[14:56] <MrD1> caj, you were right though been pressing all the bottons and it was f11
[14:57] <caj> good, F11 toggles full screen mode, can be useful at times.
[14:58] <MrD1> caj,  seems to be good to know some thing else i know the answer too now, always helpful in here
[14:59] <caj> just keep learning new things, and finding new problems.

[15:01] <arvind_khadri> erUSUL, if i have a RAM of 4gb will a swap of 4gb be enough?
[15:02] <Joshooa> sriramoman: Well it never got that far
[15:02] <erUSUL> arvind_khadri: more than enough you only need that amount if you plan to hibernate to disk
[15:02] <erUSUL> arvind_khadri: if you are not going to hibernate then you need much less if any
[15:02] <Joshooa> sriramoman: I'm typing it all out though so just a sec

[15:04] <hilder> buona sera
[15:05] <Joshooa> Anybody have any idea?
[15:05] <sriramoman> Joshooa: next time you should pls specify that ur problem was with grphx card, coz it made me first think that you recovered (logically) broken hardisks.
[15:05] <eight> opt1k: I don't know
[15:05] <sriramoman> netdevil: what help do u want?
[15:05] <netdevil> i am unable to use data dvd in hardy
[15:06] <netdevil> i get a error saying unable to mount udf volume
[15:06] <Joshooa> sriramoman: All i said was Ubuntu crashed, let me tell you, and my first line said, "I was playing with my NVidia settings"....
[15:06] <sriramoman> netdevil: did you write the data in windows using the default windows dvd writer itself?
[15:06] <netdevil> it's my friends probably he did it using windows
[15:06] <fran__> quit
[15:07] <Joshooa> netdevil: Did he close it and everything in Windows? I've had that happen to me before
[15:07] <IsTI37> Hi all
[15:07] <netdevil> i dunno
[15:08] <sriramoman> Joshooa: oh! graphix card is needed only to run X system properly. You can run cmd line without nvidea settings. so its not right to say ubuntu crashed. the reason may actually be that ubuntu detects and configures cards right if X starts up erratically more than few no. of times.
[15:08] <IsTI37> Anyone knows if grub-install detects vista automatically ?
[15:08] <sriramoman> netdevil: using windows writing s/w, the dvd you get is readable only in window$ system. not even in ur[at least mine] home player
[15:09] <Joshooa> netdevil: If you can, check it in windows and see if it'll read it ok, and maybe it's left open for another session so until Windows finishes that, it's not allowing linux to read it, possibly. At least that was apparently my case cause I went back to Windows, finished the session, and then it worked but I lost the rest of the space on the DVD, small loss though.
[15:09] <opt1k> eight: kk
[15:09] <sriramoman> netdevil: i mean home dvd player.
[15:09] <netdevil> it reads ok in windows
[15:09] <maciek__> d
[15:09] <sriramoman> netdevil: windows writing software doesn't use standardised formats like iso.

[15:09] <netdevil> ok
[15:10] <Jessie_> anyone on ubuntu??
[15:10] <zjyvista> how?
[15:10] <netdevil> so the problem is with windows i don't have to change any of my settings
[15:10] <sriramoman> netdevil: it will work via virtualbox, though. I have written few dvds this way and thats how i am telling u this so confidently.
[15:10] <HymnToLife> zjyvista: get a better connection
[15:11] <randomlogic78> is gcc not installed on the server version?
[15:11] <randomlogic78> make?
[15:11] <Joshooa> sriramoman: Ok, Well, I couldn't do anything or log in and the way UBUNTU was running was blocking me from using my computer, and how could the graphics card cause ubuntu to not accept my password on the number pad with num lock on, like I always log in 100% of the times before?
[15:11] <jrib> randomlogic78: not by default I believe
[15:11] <sriramoman> netdevil: u'r right. what you can do NOW is copy it using nero or other s/w if ur frnd doesnt have windows in his system.

[15:12] <IsTI37> Someone knows if exists a free version of flash which is working on linux like flash player on windows ?
[15:12] <ant2ne> I'm thinking about buying --> ASUS EN6200LE TC1G/TD/512M GeForce 6200LE 512MB
[15:12] <sriramoman> Joshooa: you can always use the failsafe kernel and edit the settings of the xorg.conf
[15:12] <erUSUL> !flash
[15:12] <IsTI37> I mean transparency and stuff like these to work
[15:12] <sriramoman> netdevil: come here regularly to learn new things. Hope you enjoy ur stay!
[15:12] <Joshooa> sriramoman:  Okay what do I edit? How do you know that's the problem that caused it crash?
[15:13] <netdevil> ok thanx a lot
[15:13] <ant2ne> Let me rephrase that... I'm thinking about buying -->ASUS EN6200LE TC1G/TD/512M GeForce 6200LE 512MB  Is it ubuntu friendly?
[15:13] <erUSUL> ant2ne: yes should be
[15:13] <IsTI37> The flash player is junk, its good for youtube but I cannot get a website to work like in windows. And I really don't like the fact that I have to use mozilla firefox and flash with wine
[15:14] <sriramoman> Joshooa: best what you could do is get it from the backup file, mostly xorg.conf~ else insert live cd, note the setings and paste the changes.
[15:14] <jrib> IsTI37: you don't have to.  you can use adobe flash with ubuntu
[15:14] <Jampiter> Hi
[15:15] <im-bot> what's up, Jampiter
[15:15] <Joshooa> sriramoman: Again though, what at all makes you want to edit that file?
[15:15] <IsTI37> jrib, flash is working fine for youtube websites suck
[15:15] <IsTI37> I see black where it should be transparent
[15:15] <Joshooa> sriramoman: I see no logical explanation to jump to that and just change my xorg.conf
[15:15] <jrib> IsTI37: you may be using gnash instead of adobe's flash
[15:15] <Alaskan_Dragon> anyone here know how to use emerald theme manager? i cant seem to figure out how to use one of the themes in the list
[15:15] <Jampiter> Is there a tool for easy remastering of Ubuntu? Preferably with a GUI, is there one which you choose which packages you want then burn?
[15:15] <Jampiter> !remaster
[15:16] <onx> is there an ubuntu-recommended server for evolution? i.e. open xchange, or maybe something else?
[15:16] <sriramoman> Joshooa: i felt that the reason for failure is only the graphics card and your experimentation. all the changes are made to xorg.conf file.
[15:16] <legend2440> Alaskan_Dragon: http://openswitch.org/2008/04/28/how-to-enable-emerald-in-hardy-heron-804/
[15:16] <IsTI37> I checked that already
[15:16] <Joshooa> sriramoman: But all I did was change my brightness and contrast
[15:16] <Jampiter> Is there anything better than the ones Ubottu gives?
[15:16] <Joshooa> sriramoman: I also changed settings withing Wine
[15:17] <Alaskan_Dragon> legend2440, ty
[15:17] <Zielun> is Ubuntu fine for setting LAMP in production? I know that Ubuntu is based on Debian, which is great. However, maybe there is some issues which I must be aware of?
[15:17] <Joshooa> sriramoman: Neither of those should effect my keyboard input though, so I think there's something else involved I was hoping someone might recognize symptoms
[15:17] <erUSUL> !lamp | Zielun
[15:18] <sriramoman> Joshooa: i c. actually its not recommended to do any hardware based changes via wine, eg. installing drivers etc.
[15:18] <ant2ne> What does LDAP stand for?
[15:18] <Joshooa> sriramoman:  I ddin't
[15:18] <sriramoman> Joshooa: i am extremely sorry if i didn't notice that your keyboard input doesn't work.
[15:18] <deriss> hi
[15:18] <Zielun> erUSUL: thanks :)
[15:18] <Jampiter> Where can I get UCK apart from here (broken link http://uck.sourceforge.net/ )
[15:19] <jude_> ant2ne: Lightweight Directory Access Protocol
[15:19] <jrib> IsTI37: so your issue is with adobe as flash isn't open source.  file a bug
[15:19] <Joshooa> sriramoman: That's the REALLY weird thing, it was apparently just the number pad, even though I am positive I checked caps lock and num lock a few times each
[15:19] <Zielun> erUSUL: i just simply ask for opinions, no how-to :)
[15:19] <sriramoman> Joshooa: then i am extremely sorry, i dont have a solution for the problem.
[15:19] <IsTI37> jrib I already done that, I am waiting a new version of flash, I just asked if someone knows this bug and can use flash like in windows

[15:27] <randomlogic78> jude_: could it be reading a different sources file?
[15:27] <Dillizar> erUSUL: i dont understand
[15:28] <jude_> randomlogic_: should only be /etc/apt/sources.list
[15:28] <randomlogic78> okay
[15:28] <erUSUL> Dillizar: just saying that installing the flash packaged worked for me.. so i dunoo what went wrong with your install

[15:29] <randomlogic78> jude_: in the apt-get error log Ign means ignore? Err means error and W means warning?
[15:29] <IsTI37> I have another problem, who knows Why screenlets doesn't remembers my settings ?
[15:29] <rogue2501> c01100011_: is your front mic boost on in preferences?

[15:31] <nubichan> Hi.. i got a question
[15:31] <csilk> nubichan,  just ask the question rather than telling us you have a question
[15:31] <Jampiter> How do I rip the Kubuntu CD to make an ISO?
[15:31] <c01100011_> hardy 8.4.1
[15:32] <csilk> Jampiter,  i thought the kubuntu cd was an iso?
[15:32] <randomlogic78> when I run apt-get install build-essential I got an error, but I guess it installed anyway because now when I ran it again to reproduce the error it says the package is installed
[15:32] <nubichan> i installed ubuntu (obv) and now im wondering is the root pass the same as my normal user account?
[15:32] <Jampiter> I ordered the Shipit CD
[15:32] <nubichan> cause i need to chmod a folder but i cant login to root
[15:32] <pingu_> With which software can i transmit album informations to freedb?
[15:32] <Jampiter> Yes
[15:32] <Jampiter> nubichan: Yes
[15:32] <rogue2501> c01100011_: ahhhhhhhhh 8.4... sorry man, cant help you on that one.... i am waiting for 8.10 to come out in october
[15:32] <csilk> nubichan,  yes but you dont log into the root account, you use sudo instead
[15:32] <nubichan> ok
[15:32] <nubichan> i tried su, but it said it cant login
[15:33] <csilk> nubichan,  read what i just said
[15:33] <IsTI37> nubichan or you sudo su
[15:33] <Jampiter> Ubuntu has no root account AFAIK
[15:33] <randomlogic78> but when I run checkinstall it says it can't find the package checkinstall
[15:33] <csilk> sudo su is bad style
[15:33] <Jampiter> So how do I rip the CD?
[15:33] <EagleScreen> nubichan use "sudo command"
[15:33] <illogick> i just upgraded to ubuntu 8.10 intrepid ibex alpha 6. how do i enable the compiz settings manager? everything i try i dont get that option in the menu for advances desktop settings. any suggestions??
[15:33] <csilk> !sudo
[15:33] <jrib> illogick: check the last entry in the /topic
[15:34] <Skyrail> This probably isn't the right place to ask, but if someone would be willing to point me to the right place, but I installed Sauerbraten on Ubuntu and for some reason my mouse won't work on it :/
[15:34] <illogick> not following /topic??
[15:34] <csilk> illogick,  isnt the settings manager an appication you can get from the repository?
[15:34] <illogick> what do you mean?
[15:34] <jrib> illogick: type '/topic' in your irc client without the quotes
[15:35] <illogick> thats what i thought. i dont see that package in the synaptics anymore. its no longer an option you can install
[15:35] <csilk> is it possible to view entries in the ubuntu key server?
[15:35] <jrib> illogick: Intrepid help in #ubuntu+1
[15:35] <illogick> ah. thanks
[15:35] <c01100011_> rogue2501,  not sure if that was a sarcastic stab at my dropping the 0    8.04.1
[15:36] <nubichan> Thanks it worked :)
[15:36] <nubichan> i never used ubuntu before
[15:37] <csilk> nub please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo

[15:41] <skeeel> hello
[15:41] <skeeel> does it existe a soft that can show me the video ram usage ?
[15:42] <rogue2501> c01100011_: hahahah no not at all, not a stab or anything, im just not as skilled as on the 8.04 development
[15:43] <Jampiter> How easy is UCK to use?
[15:44] <c01100011_> rogue2501, haha, no problem. Just thought you were one of those "better than though-IRC guys" who would get angry about my 8.4 8.04 slip up
[15:45] <athleone> Hello.
[15:45] <athleone> I have a problem with Ubuntu
[15:45] <athleone> I keep crashing.
[15:46] <athleone> Something about anachoristic somethings.
[15:46] <athleone> Hello?
[15:46] <athleone> Can anyone help me?
[15:46] <jumpkick1> does anyone know what the route delete syntax is to kill this line?
[15:46] <jumpkick1> Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags Metric Ref    Use Iface

[15:46] <jude_> athleone: you'll have to be a lot more specific
[15:47] <skeeel> athleone, we need more information
[15:47] <athleone> jude: alright, the next time it pops up I'll copy everything down.
[15:47] <athleone> BTW After I made my Ubuntu appearance "extra", it lagged in Firefox a lot.
[15:47] <athleone> Normal too.
[15:47] <erUSUL> athleone: anacron is ubuntu default cron daemon
[15:48] <erUSUL> jumpkick1: paste the output of "ip route" on pastebin please
[15:48] <athleone> erUSUL: Ah, yeah, something about cron something. I'm new to Ubuntu. How do I stop that?
[15:49] <skeeel> athleone, go look on your logs /var/log you maybe can figure what is going on (those are text file)
[15:49] <erUSUL> athleone: not sure why cron is giving you problems so i dunno. cron jsut launches "jobs" maybe is one specific job the one causing problems
[15:49] <skeeel> cron just run scheduled tasks
[15:49] <athleone> Kay, I'm starting the terminal.
[15:49] <jumpkick1> erUSUL: http://pastebin.ca/1206646
[15:50] <NCX001> Hey guys I need a little bit of help setting up a triple monitor setup. I can get two to run, (they are on a dual head Nvidia card using nvidia-settings) then I have a second card. Screens and graphics seeis it but it won't do anything (can't save settings) and nvidia-setting won't work. I've tried manually editing the xorg.conf and well I'd like to stay away from that. Any suggestions?
[15:50] <athleone> which log do I look at?
[15:50] <skeeel> wait athleone
[15:50] <Jampiter> Hi, Where can I download the official Ubuntu logo font?
[15:51] <erUSUL> jumpkick1: no the output of route but the one from "ip route" is a different program
[15:51] <NCX001> anyone?
[15:51] <skeeel> syslog first
[15:51] <legend2440> Jampiter: http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/07/12/download-and-install-the-ubuntu-title-font/
[15:51] <genius> NCX001: God may help ypu :)
[15:51] <skeeel> then deamon
[15:51] <athleone> It came and gone again.
[15:51] <NCX001> lol I figured as much
[15:52] <athleone> I couldnt pick up much
[15:52] <jumpkick1> erUSUL: oops, sorry...  sec..
[15:52] <genius> NCX001: maybe you run nvidia-config not under root? so it can't save config
[15:52] <PerfectEx> NCX001: Do you have 2 PCI cards? is this an x86 system?
[15:52] <Jampiter> Excellent :) Thanks legend2440
[15:52] <athleone> But I could pick up the word "period scheduler cron(I think)"
[15:52] <athleone> what do I do?
[15:52] <NCX001> well I am able to change the setting on the nvidia card with nvida-settings but I can't edit the config for the other card with it
[15:52] <runix__> hey. I need an option in the ubuntu hardy alternate installer "use partition and create encrypted lvm". I'm not sure how I have to do it manually: if I create the LVM physical volume on a partition, then I don't have the encryption options!
[15:52] <dr3mro> hi i use ubuntu 8.04 on laptop
[15:53] <athleone> ?
[15:53] <NCX001> PerfectEX: yes and yes
[15:53] <dr3mro> and i m asking about power top
[15:53] <skeeel> athleone, in syslog try to find the text cron to look what is trying to launch
[15:53] <IntuitiveNipple> NCX001: what is the 'other card' chip-set? also nvidia?
[15:53] <mumbles> has anyone else had trouble with the new ubuntu install disk ?
[15:53] <PerfectEx> NCX001: hmm... most of my problems run into using PCI and AGP.  Are they identical cards?
[15:53] <athleone> skeeel: What is syslog?
[15:53] <erUSUL> athleone: maybe boot into recovery mode and disable cron so you can investigate further?
[15:54] <skeeel> athleone, it is a file in the /var/log directory
[15:54] <dr3mro> power top suggests solutions for me and i press key to answer it but when i restart powertop it suggest them again do i ahev to start powertop all time and how i can make the changes permanenr
[15:54] <NCX001> the other card is a VGA compatible controller: S3 Inc. ViRGE/DX or /GX  according to lspci
[15:54] <athleone> skeeel is it syslog.0 ?
[15:54] <erUSUL> athleone: you can not disable cron forever as it performs basic housekeeping on linux systems
[15:54] <IsTI37> is any way to reset gnome-panels without terminal ?
[15:54] <IsTI37> and without resetting X
[15:54] <NCX001> and it is a pci and agp I was mistaken
[15:54] <_Zeus_> IsTI37: not that i know of
[15:54] <PerfectEx> isnt ViRGE and ATI brand?
[15:54] <skeeel> you must have a syslog athleone
[15:54] <_Zeus_> IsTI37: what's wrong with terminal?
[15:54] <IntuitiveNipple> NCX001: what is the PCI ID? (lspci -nn | grep S3)
[15:55] <skeeel> syslog.0 is a bit older
[15:55] <IsTI37> My desktop just broke
[15:55] <athleone> skeeel yeah, which one?
[15:55] <skeeel> syslog :)
[15:55] <erUSUL> !resetpanels
[15:55] <NCX001> 05:0e.0
[15:55] <IsTI37> without terminal ?
[15:55] <IsTI37> terminal is dead
[15:55] <PerfectEx> NCX001: AH, well I have yet to get PCI AND AGP to work.  The system (as I understand it) is only designed to drive one (either or)
[15:55] <erUSUL> IsTI37: you can not launch one?
[15:55] <skeeel> syslog.0 is the backup of a older syslog
[15:55] <athleone> skeeel syslog.0 ?
[15:55] <IntuitiveNipple> NCX001: no, that is the PCI bus location... the ID is towards the end of the line. show the entire line
[15:55] <skeeel> athleone, NO just syslog
[15:55] <IsTI37> because I forgot to add a shortcut to desktop
[15:56] <erUSUL> IsTI37: alt + f2 run gnome-terminal
[15:56] <NCX001> ohhhhhhhhhhhhh
[15:56] <athleone> skeeel thanks
[15:56] <IsTI37> alt+f is related to gnome panels because it not works
[15:56] <NCX001> [5333:8a01]
[15:56] <IsTI37> f2
[15:56] <NCX001> is that it?
[15:56] <IntuitiveNipple> NCX001: thanks :)
[15:56] <erUSUL> IsTI37: crtl + alt + f1
[15:56] <_Zeus_> IsTI37: no it's not

[15:57] <Jampiter> I need help with reconstuctor
[15:57] <Katsu> Hello?

[15:57] <Jampiter> When I open it, it crashes and closes again immediately
[15:57] <Katsu> I needs help installing a tarball lol
[15:57] <IntuitiveNipple> NCX001: ok, the driver for that is "s3fb" (you can find out by doing egrep '5333.*8a01' /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/modules.pcimap )
[15:57] <athleone> How do I pipe the output of a cat into a text file?
[15:57] <tyler_> How can i add album artwork to songs in amarok
[15:57] <jumpkick1> erUSUL: http://pastebin.com/d75479a3
[15:57] <jumpkick1> sorry it took so long, pastebin.ca stop working
[15:57] <erUSUL> athleone: cat whatever > file
[15:57] <jumpkick1> the form wouldn't post
[15:57] <MSI-Wind> will  http://hsqldb.org/ let me do simple sql requetes to my microsoft sql database on a MS server ? via my vpn connection ?
[15:58] <skeeel> cat file >anotherfile
[15:58] <erUSUL> jumpkick1: paste.ubuntu.com ;P
[15:58] <IntuitiveNipple> NCX001: You'll probably have to manually edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and add the second device with supporting screen and monitor sections too
[15:58] <NCX001> yep
[15:58] <skeeel> athleone, do grep cron syslog
[15:58] <NCX001> I was afraid of that, I think i was using that id instead of the bus location... I'll give it a try and let you know
[15:58] <Katsu> http://paste.ubuntu.com/48592/
[15:58] <IsTI37> Who knows where can I submit that there is no accesible console which works if gnome panels crash ?
[15:59] <IsTI37> and there is no launcher on the desktop
[15:59] <erUSUL> MSI-Wind: hsqldb is a proper db not just a sql client iirc; or i missing something?
[15:59] <IntuitiveNipple> NCX001: If you do get it working, please post the solution in the forums Hardware & Laptops, for others to benefit from
[15:59] <PerfectEx> NCX001: Yes please... people like me!
[15:59] <jumpkick1> erUSUL: copied it to  http://paste.ubuntu.com/48593/
[15:59] <IntuitiveNipple> lol
[15:59] <onx> is there an ubuntu-recommended backend for evolution? i.e. open xchange, or maybe something else?

[16:00] <IntuitiveNipple> PerfectEx: It's relatively straight-forward if you follow the procedures :)
[16:00] <Jampiter>  What's 'gdk'?
[16:00] <legend2440> Katsu: why not just install testdisk from synaptic?

[16:03] <_Zeus_> tinin: what do you mean how?  just use the file browser?
[16:03] <MSI-Wind> erUSUL, thanks will look
[16:03] <legend2440> Katsu: sudo apt-get install testdisk  no space between test and disk
[16:03] <jumpkick1>  erUSUL: yeah thanks....  so my mistake was trying to use "route del" when I should have been trying "ip route del"
[16:03] <tinin> _Zeus_ but with samba? ssh?
[16:03] <IntuitiveNipple> rory: What application/applet are you trying to execute when that occurs?
[16:04] <_Zeus_> tinin: oh.  you can use NFS
[16:04] <Katsu> lol spelt testdisk like teskdisk lol
[16:04] <_Zeus_> !nfs | tinin
[16:04] <Jampiter> How do I install gdk?
[16:04] <_Zeus_> Jampiter: sudo apt-get install gdk?
[16:04] <PerfectEx> IntuitiveNipple: Yes. It seems that on this specific mobo (Alienware et al) there is a hardware issue that will not allow it to run an AGP and PCI video card physically.  Seems that if you have a video card in the AGP slot, then no other video cards even get noticed.
[16:04] <erUSUL> jumpkick1: well ip and route are to different programs... i know how to del routes with ip but like you i dunno how to do it with route XD
[16:04] <jrib> Jampiter: why?
[16:04] <tinin> thanx _Zeus_
[16:04] <Jampiter> Reconstructor won't start and it says it neesa it
[16:04] <erUSUL> jumpkick1: ip route is straight forward just copy paste the route you want to delete
[16:04] <MSI-Wind> erUSUL, looks perfect, downloading now :)
[16:04] <_Zeus_> tinin: sure, set that up on your desktop and you can access the files from your laptop
[16:04] <rory> can anyone help me
[16:05] <Mion> rory: doubt it
[16:05] <IntuitiveNipple> PerfectEx: BIOS issue? many do have a way to disable video adapters
[16:05] <tyger> Just a quick question, how do I make it so when the screensaver comes on, or when I shut the lid to my laptop (suspend), the computer won't ask for my user password?
[16:05] <jrib> Jampiter: have you read and completed the tasks detailed in http://reconstructor.aperantis.com/cgi-bin/moin.cgi/Docs/Using_Reconstructor ?
[16:05] <skeeel> athleone, everything seems fine for me ,
[16:06] <athleone> skeeel: really?
[16:06] <Jampiter> No
[16:06] <Jampiter> Thanks jrib
[16:06] <skeeel> next crash note the time and look in your log
[16:06] <athleone> skeeel: then how come my computer keeps going black and saying stuff about crons and shit?
[16:06] <xomp> hello, I've noticed if I'm on a website with a lot of pictures (like deviant art) when i scroll down the page there's a noticable "lag" if you will with displaying the images. The scrolling isn't as smooth as I'd like it to be. Is this a problem with vertical sync or something?
[16:06] <MSI-Wind> downlaoded now where is it ??
[16:06] <athleone> skeeel: oh, okay.
[16:06] <IntuitiveNipple> Jampiter: It is already installed
[16:06] <athleone> skeeel: the last crash was just a few minutes ago, though..
[16:06] <IntuitiveNipple> Jampiter: it is part of the libgtk* packages
[16:07] <skeeel> what clock it is for you now ?
[16:07] <_Zeus_> tyger: take a look in preferences > power management
[16:07] <PerfectEx> IntuitiveNipple: I thought of that too, and I think it is just that pertictlar board.  It wont do other things that it SHOULD do either (like run 4 sticks of ram...) Im not worried about it at this point though. New board on the way.
[16:07] <skeeel> what time*
[16:07] <IsTI37> thanks for help
[16:07] <_Zeus_> !language | athleone
[16:07] <IsTI37> but when I tryed to killall gnome-panel X hanged up
[16:07] <IntuitiveNipple> PerfectEx: It sounds hobbled!
[16:07] <Jampiter> Ok, thanks IntuitiveNipple
[16:08] <IsTI37> I needed to log out and restart X
[16:08] <IsTI37> because when I tryed to restart X it hanged up again
[16:08] <athleone> _Zeus_, sorry.
[16:08] <erUSUL> MSI-Wind: something graphical http://www.squirrelsql.org/
[16:08] <IsTI37> someone has to add in ubuntu 8.10 a console somewhere else than gnome-panel
[16:08] <PerfectEx> IntuitiveNipple:  Well, I only use it for two programs (Sibelius and Premiere) so im not that upset.
[16:08] <IsTI37> or add a refresh somewhere
[16:09] <athleone> If it wasn't for the lag and the stupid crashes, Ubuntu would be perfect.
[16:09] <_Zeus_> IsTI37: just press alt+f2...
[16:09] <_Zeus_> or ctrl+alt+f1
[16:09] <tyler_> Anyone here ever heard of a program called aTunes, and if so how can i install it
[16:09] <IntuitiveNipple> PerfectEx: Sibelius the music score program?
[16:09] <IsTI37> Zeus when I logged in in 1 and I wrote in killall gnome-panel X hanged up on 7
[16:10] <_Zeus_> IsTI37: just restart X then
[16:10]  * st3ph test
[16:10] <IsTI37> Alt+f2 is related to gnome panels because it didn't run
[16:10] <PerfectEx> IntuitiveNipple: Yes, I learned it and stuck with it from version 2...
[16:10] <_Zeus_> IsTI37: it IS NOT
[16:10] <IsTI37> when my panels have freeze
[16:10] <IsTI37> explain my why not worked
[16:10] <xomp> hello, I've noticed if I'm on a website with a lot of pictures (like deviant art) when i scroll down the page there's a noticable "sluggishness" if you will with displaying the images. The scrolling isn't as smooth as I'd like it to be. Is this a problem with vertical sync or something?
[16:10] <IntuitiveNipple> PerfectEx: Yeah, I have a friend who composes with it
[16:11] <erUSUL> IsTI37: there are 6 of them through "crtl+alt+fn" n=1..6
[16:11] <IsTI37> when my panels freeze but my apps and desktop worked
[16:11] <_Zeus_> IsTI37: obviously something more basic froze
[16:11] <_Zeus_> bacuse you don't need gnome-panel for alt+f2
[16:11] <IsTI37> yes... but a refresh command should help a lot
[16:11] <IsTI37> which obviously not exists
[16:11] <MadHag> Yo
[16:11] <MadHag> Ubuntu rocks
[16:11] <IsTI37> and to restart X is was not a good option now for me
[16:11] <_Zeus_> !bug | IsTI37
[16:12] <IsTI37> * was
[16:12] <MadHag> has to be the best Linux distro
[16:12] <MadHag> everything just works
[16:12] <IntuitiveNipple> _Zeus_: actually you do for Alt+F2 - that's the shortcut for "show the panel run application dialog"
[16:12] <MadHag> superb
[16:12] <daedric> xomp, perhaps you're not using drivers...
[16:12] <ebfe> slightly off-topic but is there anyone here with a working nvidia-cuda environment ?
[16:12] <PerfectEx> IntuitiveNipple: It helps alot, especally since im a Music Theory doc candidate
[16:12] <IntuitiveNipple> _Zeus_: On the other hand, for the consoles Ctrl+Alt+F1  F2 F3 F4 F5 F6 should all work
[16:12] <_Zeus_> IntuitiveNipple: that doesn't make any sense
[16:12] <_Zeus_> but whatever
[16:13] <IntuitiveNipple> PerfectEx: Yeah, he's at uni studying to be a composer... plays the Viola, writes string pieces
[16:13] <MadHag> first time I have had a distro tell me that there are 3d drivers waiting for my graphics card
[16:13] <MadHag> well done Ubuntu people
[16:13] <IntuitiveNipple> _Zeus_: Look in System > Preferences >Keyboard Shortcuts
[16:13] <xomp> daedric, is there a way to check if I am or not?
[16:14] <_Zeus_> IntuitiveNipple: i understand that, but isn't that managed by X or nautilus?
[16:14] <_Zeus_> or maybe metacity?
[16:14] <PerfectEx> IntuitiveNipple: If i didn't have to fight with .NET I would use Vbox or Wine and just use my linux box
[16:14] <MadHag> wth, 121 updates?  Go man go
[16:15] <daedric> xomp, for starters...
[16:15] <MadHag> can only get better me thinks
[16:15] <daedric> try tunning in a console : glxinfo | grep -i direct
[16:15] <_Zeus_> MadHag: ubuntu gets lots of updates
[16:15] <MadHag> why is that?
[16:15] <MadHag> cutting edge I guess
[16:15] <_Zeus_> MadHag: exactly :D
[16:16] <roukoun> does anyone knows where can i find every keyboard shortcur? i looked under System>Preferences>Keyboard Shortcuts but there are only a few!
[16:16] <MadHag> normal mate :)
[16:16] <_Zeus_> MadHag: do you have proposed and backports enabled?
[16:16] <ebfe> slightly off-topic but is there anyone here with a working nvidia-cuda environment ?
[16:16] <_Zeus_> roukoun: compiz has a lot of keyboard shortcuts in ccsm if you're running it
[16:16] <MadHag> just installed
[16:16] <_Zeus_> !ccsm | roukoun
[16:16] <MadHag> got my 1440*900 rez without even installing the ati driver lol
[16:17] <Xcerca> ﻿roukoun most programs have a place in that particular program that tells you what the keyboard shortcuts are for only that program
[16:17] <xomp> daedric, direct rendering: Yes
[16:17] <MadHag> not installed the ati driver yet
[16:17] <MadHag> just getting these 121 updates
[16:17] <IntuitiveNipple> _Zeus_: yes but if there's a panel issue it might not respond to the key-press, and therefore the user won't get the option to run a command
[16:18] <daedric> xomp, good. Are you using compiz ?
[16:18] <xomp> daedric, yes :)
[16:18] <MadHag> noticed my numbers key aint working as default as well
[16:18] <daedric> xomp, many issues come from compiz... what video adapter do you have ?
[16:18] <Bad_Magic[GoD]> Anyone have any idea why I can't run snes9x in fullscreen mode on my ps3 unless I use a 'fullscreen' ps3-video-mode (and thus have the associated overscan issues)? I get the following error: XF86DGANoDirectVideoMode
[16:19] <xomp> daedric, my lspci | grep VGA reports > 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M7 LW [Radeon Mobility 7500]

[16:19] <daedric> xomp, ouch... Radeons and Linux are just starting to get along....
[16:19] <brandonmpace> xomp: those have problems with compiz
[16:19] <xomp> yeah :( I hate ATI
[16:19] <daedric> i'm not the best person help you... i don't have any ATI board...
[16:19] <legend2440> MadHag: numberpad not working?  with num lock light on?
[16:19] <mortuis99> hello....  is thedre a tutorial somewhere to install ubuntu on a memory stick?
[16:20] <brandonmpace> xomp: just this morning someone else had the same problem on the same video chipset
[16:20] <xomp> the folks from #compiz have got compiz working with this card so that's atleast good hah
[16:20] <physically_fit> !install | mortuis99
[16:20] <xomp> just the sluggishness I experience on large websites is a bit annoying
[16:20] <MadHag> at login as well, its a drag to activate it lol
[16:20] <brutus> how do i read my laptop temperature?
[16:20] <brandonmpace> xomp: and ATI is doing 2x as good as nvidia right now lol so I´m not complaining

[16:21] <dr3mro> what is Rescheduling interrupts
[16:21] <MadHag> least of my problems
[16:21] <danbh_intrepid> how can I securely wipe my harddrive?
[16:22] <vecx> use shred
[16:22] <danbh_intrepid> thanks
[16:22] <vecx> it writes the disk with random data
[16:22] <legend2440> MadHag: you could try installing   numlockx see if that fixes it
[16:22] <vecx> I believe the Ubuntu LiveCD has it
[16:22] <Ana[L]ogiC> a low format should work too
[16:22] <vecx> so if you want to wipe your primary HD, just boot into the liveCD and use shred /dev/hda1
[16:22] <danbh_intrepid> vecx: will it work on freespace?
 and <roukoun>  can u save changes to these installs using these methods?

[16:27] <brandonmpace> nothin1: can you describe the problem in more detail?
[16:27] <danbh_intrepid> vecx: I dont see any option to work on freespace, it looks like it just to delete a file, or a whole partition.  I was hoping to hit just the unused space on my drive,  to make sure previously deleted files are zeroed out.  Are you sure it can be used on freespace?      If not, I can live.  I can  shred the whole partition, and then reinstall, but... thats less preferable
[16:27] <Jampiter> Hmm... If I make a remaster of ubuntu, and redistribute it, do I have to offer all the source code with it? And how do I get all the source code for Ubuntu and all the various software?

[16:34] <MadHag> danbh_intrepid,  they must be
[16:34] <MadHag> some how
[16:34] <IntuitiveNipple> o0Chris0o: Did you login to the terminal with Ctrl_Alt+F1? after that you must stop the X server using "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop" and *then* you can build and install the nvidia driver. Once it is built you can restart X with "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start". If that fails the system probably needs a restart ( sudo shutdown -r now).
[16:35] <MadHag> this distro is unbelieveable
[16:35] <o0Chris0o> ahh ok
[16:35] <MadHag> *hic
[16:35] <o0Chris0o> I'll give that a try IntuitiveNipple
[16:35] <danbh_intrepid> MadHag: well, AFAIK, Mark Shuttleworth, the founder and very wealthy funder of this distro is saying the same thing.  He is still trying to find a way to make Ubuntu profitable enough that he doesnt have to pay for it out of his own pocket.      But this is getting ot...
[16:36] <MadHag> lol
[16:36] <nothin1> well, if I kill the init process or if i shutdown/restart, the display will show many colors, then it will be brighter and et the end its black :(

[16:44] <brandonmpace> nothin1: is it a laptop or desktop?
[16:44] <jim_p> colors? like?

[16:45] <jim_p> i think
[16:45] <nothin1> wanna see lspci ?
[16:45] <jim_p> it may be some acpi problem, because on shutdown you hear that weird noise
[16:45] <MadHag> Nvidia are over hyped, they just laid off 6500 emplyees
[16:45] <MadHag> ati are the Linuw boys
[16:46] <MadHag> new driver is great

[16:46] <nothin1> The klick is also when i shutdown windows, but its not so loud as in ubuntu

[16:46] <nothin1> what could I do ?
[16:47] <LimCore> IsTI37: also ask #ubuntu-bugs

[16:47] <jim_p> nothin1: check your drive with s.m.a.r.t. and your memory with a memtest
[16:47] <tstebut> Hi !
[16:47] <nothin1> It oculdn't be a hardware issue
[16:48] <nothin1> *couldnt
[16:48] <valentinex> E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[16:48] <nothin1> the shutdown works on the LIVE CD
[16:48] <tstebut> I'm looking for a way to use real PGP within pigdin on my Ubuntu Heron
[16:48] <brandonmpace> valentinex: is that supposed to be a question about that error?
[16:49] <ShiroUsagi> Hi. I was wondering, where does the python-nautilus tagging extension keep file tags? And are there any other stable and working solutions for file tagging in linux?
[16:49] <ilec> bert, do you have another HDD you can mirror them to, then reformatt your partitions?
[16:49] <valentinex> brandonmpace: on every package etc installation i get that error coz last time my pc was shut from back while installation
[16:49] <ilec> easiest way i know to reset partition labels
[16:49] <rodolfo_> hey guys is there a disk-defrag for ubuntu?
[16:49] <jim_p> nothin1: do you know how to boot with acpi turned off?
[16:49] <DEdwards> rodolfo_, not needed
[16:49] <Hick0rd> Hello
[16:50] <Hick0rd> Whenever I try to install Ububtu on my machine I get the following error message:
[16:50] <jim_p> rodolfo_: linux oses dont need defrag
[16:50] <brandonmpace> valentinex: and you ran that command it tells you to?
[16:50] <Hick0rd> 195.2579371 Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0 ... ... .. .
[16:50] <dr3mro> valentinex, try sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock
[16:50] <Hick0rd> And the first line above repeats with different numbers at the beginning.
[16:50] <wajib> My speakers and headphones get sound at the same time.  How do I make it switch automatically?  I don't see anything like that in Alsa mixer.
[16:50] <rodolfo_> so how does it work exactly? (please tell me some website explaining it)
[16:50] <dr3mro> valentinex, then sudo apt-get update
[16:50] <jim_p> wajib: what sound card?
[16:50] <brandonmpace> wajib: are you on a laptop?
[16:51] <dr3mro> i use powertop and it tells me that Rescheduling interrupts is taking much cpu how can i fix?
[16:51] <wajib> Yes laptop, lemme check sound card.
[16:51] <nothin1> after the install, I installed the updates, then I restartet, before the splashscreen was coming up, there was some text, but I wasnt able to read it. After I installed the Nvidia driver from "hardware driver" the display showed only some colors when I restarted..
[16:51] <ilec> so nobody knows of a source for offline documentation (other than saving every page one at a time)?
[16:51] <jim_p> rodolfo_: it because the filesystems cant be fragmented
[16:51] <jim_p> rodolfo_: at least not as the windows ones
[16:51] <rodolfo_> DEdwards, jim_p: what kind of FS does ubuntu use?
[16:51] <brandonmpace> ilec: what kind of documentation? I mean there are man pages
[16:51] <rodolfo_> run on*
[16:51] <jim_p> ext3
[16:52] <DEdwards> ext3 by defualt
[16:52] <jim_p> by defaylt
[16:52] <Mion> rodolfo_: whatever you tell it to use
[16:52] <dr3mro> jfs is far better
[16:52] <rodolfo_> I see..and ext3 is set by default on Ubuntu Installer?
[16:52] <brandonmpace> dr3mro: lol how
[16:52] <jim_p> jfs and xfs are good provided you have a ups
[16:52] <Hick0rd> Whenever I try to install Ububtu on my machine I get the following error message:
[16:52] <Hick0rd> 195.2579371 Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0 ... ... .. .
[16:52] <jim_p> i am not goin to explain why!
[16:52] <Mion> dr3mro: depends on for what, and what data is on it
[16:52] <DEdwards> rodolfo_, yes
[16:53] <brandonmpace> I´m curious as I have only used ext3
[16:53] <legend2440> !defrag | rodolfo_
[16:53] <ilec> ah, any really. I was looking at the ubuntu.com documentation page, but it's all spread out over lots of small pages.
[16:53] <guerby> hi, how to get the value of a parameter for a running kernel module?
[16:53] <dr3mro> brandonmpace, google for benchmark of both fs!
[16:53] <tstebut> sorry
[16:53] <tstebut> I'm looking for a way to use real PGP within pigdin on my Ubuntu Heron
[16:53] <rodolfo_> if there is the faster, so there should be the slower FS
[16:53] <dr3mro> i use powertop and it tells me that Rescheduling interrupts is taking much cpu how can i fix?
[16:54] <IntuitiveNipple> ilec: Does System > Help and Support provide what you need?
[16:54] <valentinex> dr3mro: i hate updating my ubuntu :(( i want to install it again i dont want to update :(( it will take two hours
[16:54] <brandonmpace> dr3mro: does it have the same features as ext3 though? journaling?
[16:54] <vassler> i need help
[16:54] <dr3mro> jfs is far more features
[16:54] <DEdwards> shoot, vassler
[16:54] <reinis__> guys, what to do, if each time i connect my USB HDD device, ubuntu adds another external hd icon on the desktop??? :/
[16:54] <brandonmpace> valentinex: lol I hate to tell you but when I had that problem I had to reinstall
[16:54] <rodolfo_> legend2440: 'Linkpot.net is down for maintenance'
[16:55] <brandonmpace> reinis__: you mean that the old one remains?
[16:55] <legend2440> rodolfo_: yes i see that
[16:55] <vassler> i need help: how can i d/l new system fonts for gimp
[16:55] <gregor> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiled_printing software avaible for ubuntu?
[16:55] <jim_p> vassler: dafont.com and place them in ~/.fonts
[16:56] <ilec> I'm installing it to my new system, but i don't have access to another machine onsite (and i can't exactly drag it in to work to do it) I need to have atleast the installation and setup documentation on hand (especially as this will be my first linux install)
[16:56] <reinis__> no
[16:56] <reinis__> its like duplicate
[16:56] <vassler> jim_p: thank you
[16:56] <reinis__> i connected it two times, and it made two the same icons for external hdd
[16:56] <rodolfo_> jim_p: what version of ubuntu are you using?
[16:56] <jim_p> rodolfo_: i prefer to keep a secret about this
[16:57] <reinis__> im useing force mount btw on 8.04
[16:57] <jim_p> pm me if you want to learn
[16:57] <valentinex> dr3mro:  while updating i got this message again in terminal :D E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[16:57] <brandonmpace> reinis__: why are you force mounting?
[16:57] <reinis__> coz it gaved me an error, without force mounting
[16:58] <alfonso> Kubuntu vs Ubuntu, who is better?
[16:58] <brandonmpace> lol so you forced it anyways
[16:58] <valentinex> alfonso: ubuntu
[16:58] <DVS01> i prefer ubuntu, as it uses gnome
[16:58] <wajib> (There we go.)  Headphones/speakers not switching.  Laptop.  "Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc IXP SB4x0 High Definition Audio Controller (rev 01)"
[16:58] <reinis__> yes, but when i forced it, it opens
[16:58] <reinis__> but makes icons on the desktop
[16:58] <reinis__> each time i connect, adds one more
[16:58] <DEdwards> alfonso, they are the same OS
[16:59] <IntuitiveNipple> ilec: I'd suggest using 'wget' to fetch and store the pages you need offline. Using a variety of its options you can make a copy of a subsection of a site and maintain the relative links locally.
[16:59] <`Bleu> Is there a way to run rdesktop thru a socks proxy?  I have setup a reverse SSH tunnel from remote box 1 to local box 1 and enabled it to listen on a certian port on local box 1.  I am using local box 2 to connect to that port using SOCKS proxy.  I am able to get to the remote network from local box 2 using a browser and SOCKS proxy.  Does anyone know how i can use rdesktop on local box 2 to connect to remote network machines?
[16:59] <brandonmpace> wajib: when 8.10 comes out on october 30 this hardware driver issue may be corrected
[16:59] <brandonmpace> wajib: so be sure to upgrade

[16:59] <wajib> Orritey then.  Thanks.
[16:59] <ilec> okay thanks
[16:59] <brandonmpace> reinis__: I´m not sure how to correct this

[17:03] <danbh_intrepid> Killer--Tux: ?  your welcome?
[17:03] <IntuitiveNipple> rampageoberon: Read "man sshd" and particularly "man hosts_access"

[17:07] <uriel_> i know i can use open office but i have MS office 07 i would rather use that if i can
[17:07] <Mion> uriel_: wine, crossoveroffice, vista in a vm
[17:07] <ykphuah> minerale: hmm, I have /etc/network.
[17:07] <perlsyntax__> anyone uuse PDE perl dev for emacs before?

[17:08] <IntuitiveNipple> randomlogic78: then "sudo apt-get update"
[17:08] <perlsyntax__> ?
 can u give my some instructions how how o get/install that?
[17:08] <randomlogic78> IntuitiveNipple: I'm not on an amd64 machine, does that matter
[17:08] <Mion> uriel_: just follow the ubuntu wiki
[17:09] <IntuitiveNipple> randomlogic78: Obviously you may need to edit the line I gave you to match the label of the disk you have, and the architecture
[17:09] <gregor> how to save rtmp streams to disk?
[17:09] <randomlogic78> IntuitiveNipple: will the disk label match the iso image file name?
[17:09] <IsTI37> Anyone here uses Yahoo Zimbra ? It not works for me

[17:10] <xhaju> hello everyone
[17:10] <reinis__> :) worked!
[17:10] <xhaju> I've got a problem with ATI radeon 9200 drivers in ubuntu: although I use the xorg.conf configuration that is used in the great majority of tutorials, I still have no direct rendering
[17:10] <perlsyntax__> my question is i copy and paste in my ~/.emacs file and i not sure where to find the tools or if i have to do something again.
[17:10] <nosbig> Zimbra is awesome...  Runs well, both community and network edition...
[17:10] <IntuitiveNipple> randomlogic78: If you use another system with the CD, do System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager then Settings > Repositories
[17:10] <xhaju> does anyone know how to activate it?
[17:11] <schijnn> Is there any way to restore my system to its initial, post-install, state?
[17:11] <IntuitiveNipple> randomlogic78: Then the Third Party software tab, then press the "Add CD-ROM.." button
[17:11] <mbrigdan> sorry about the lame question, but how can I get ls to output just the names of the files, with each one on a different row?
[17:11] <IntuitiveNipple> randomlogic78: That'll add the exact entry you need to that PC, from which you can copy it to the other system
[17:12] <IntuitiveNipple> mbrigdan: ls -1 (that's a one not an L)
[17:12] <NCX001> Hey guys It is me again, (the guy trying to set up three monitiors on two different video cards) I have edited the xorg.conf and for the first time it didn't error out but.... it displays nothing. Just black like it hasn't changed a thing. Any suggestions?
[17:12] <nosbig> IsTI37, Are you having troubles?
[17:12] <IntuitiveNipple> NCX001: displays on the 3rd display, or all of them?
[17:13] <NCX001> I can get display on the first two(the nvidia dual head) but the third card the S3 ViRGE has nothing..
[17:13] <Omoikane_> When is ibex coming out?
[17:13] <NCX001> *second card third monitor
[17:13] <randomlogic78> IntuitiveNipple: I'm running the server addition and I don't have a gui... or did I misunderstand what you were telling me to do?
[17:13] <xhaju> how can I deactivate Mesa drivers, and use ATI drivers?
[17:13] <IntuitiveNipple> randomlogic78: Once you've added that CD to the current PC, you can grab the line it has added by doing grep cdrom /etcv/apt/sources.list
[17:14] <randomlogic78> IntuitiveNipple: I see what you are saying
[17:14] <valentinex> alias nipple :-s
[17:14] <IntuitiveNipple> randomlogic78: I was suggesting you do that on an Ubuntu Desktop PC first, to get the correct string to write to the server.
[17:14] <gregor> how to save rtmp streams to disk?
[17:14] <randomlogic78> IntutiveNipple: I'm on OS X though, not Ubuntu for my other system
[17:15] <IntuitiveNipple> randomlogic78: typo correction: grep cdrom /etc/apt/sources.list
[17:15] <NCX001> Is there anyone willing to look at my xorg.conf and double check it?
[17:15] <IntuitiveNipple> randomlogic78: Okay, how about doing it in a virtual machine that has hardy desktop on it?
[17:15] <mbrigdan> IntuitiveNipple: thanks, now I just need to figure out which one is my external hard drive...
[17:16] <IntuitiveNipple> randomlogic78: or alternatively ask here for someone with the specific version/architecture to give you their system's cdrom line
[17:16] <randomlogic78> IntutiveNipple: I suppose I could try that... first I'll try to be clever about it and just edit the entry by hand like you suggested.

[17:25] <rxndx> just got home and started tooling around with my Dad's Ubuntu box only to find that there has been some type of error after he upgraded to Hardy
[17:26] <jrib> Visseroth: no, that's not your sources.list.  You need to open your sources.list in a text editor (gedit /etc/apt/sources.list) and then copy and paste the contents to a pastebin

[17:28] <rxndx> I tried sudo apt-get update and apt-get upgrade, but nothing is working, and now, I can't seem to uninstall firefox even though I've removed the .mozilla directory from the home directory and from /etc
[17:29] <IntuitiveNipple> smm289: Yes, you can do that if the remote host that is attached to the scanner is running Linux with xsane already aware of the scanner.
[17:29] <rxndx> petrele, I installed ff and tried uninstalling from synaptic, all to no avail

[17:30] <petrele> rxndx, did you install ff by apt-get both times or not?
[17:30] <cyban> How do you toggle the Desktop Cube thing?
[17:30] <rxndx> petrele, no, only through the synaptic package manager
[17:31] <petrele> rxndx, maybe there are two firefoxs in difference PATH?
[17:31] <rafa_> hello, can someone please help me enable my tablet under ubuntu? its a tablet laptop. a toshiba r25-s3505
[17:31] <IntuitiveNipple> rxndx: did you do "sudo apt-get --purge remove firefox-3.0" ?
[17:31] <ricgomez> hi, I'm having a speed problem with madwifi in hardy, please help
[17:31] <rxndx> IntuitiveNipple, will try right now
[17:32] <IntuitiveNipple> rxndx: No... I was just asking since you said v2 is still there...
[17:32] <petrele> rxndx, try "which firefox"
[17:32] <IntuitiveNipple> rxndx: You *can* try "sudo apt-get --purge remove firefox-2" though
[17:32] <rxndx> Package firefox-3.0 is not installed, so not removed
[17:32] <Bigmack83> what is the command to see all the folders that a program was installed from ?
[17:32] <rxndx> petrele, IntuitiveNipple, will try both suggestions
[17:33] <Bigmack83> i meant installed into. not from
[17:33] <metatagg> Bigmack83: which     , i think
[17:33] <IntuitiveNipple> Bigmack83: you mean "dpkg-query -L <package-name>" ?
[17:33] <smm289> is there a GUI method for changing the ownership of a file
[17:33] <wx9j_> anyone able to help me with nautilus ? been looking for an answer for days
[17:33] <rxndx> petrele, it says /usr/bin/firefox
[17:33] <xbxbxb> I want to move my home directory to a separate, encrypted disc that I'd like to mount manually *after* linux and gnome has started. Is this possible or does the linux startup procedure need the home directory?
[17:33] <Bigmack83> ill try both. thx
[17:34] <UnionPivo> xbxbxb, Linux no, but gnome and X does
[17:34] <Bigmack83> ah, its the dpgk command, thx
[17:34] <UnionPivo> acctualy X doesnt
[17:34] <rafa_> can someone please help me enable my tablet?
[17:34] <UnionPivo> but gnome does :)
[17:34] <petrele> rxndx, then i have no idea. are you sure about the problem
[17:34] <IntuitiveNipple> rxndx: if it is proving confusing, search the known installed packages for the firefox start script: "dpkg-query -S '/usr/bin/firefox' " - that will help work out which package needs to be removed
[17:35] <smm289> I need to change the ownership of a file, i'd rather not use the CLI, is there a method I can use from within Nautalis.  I have the open as administrator right click option, but that does not allow me to go into properties and change the owner, it just opens the file
[17:35] <rxndx> petrele, thanks for the help
[17:35] <rxndx> IntuitiveNipple, I'll do that right now
[17:35] <WDC_> Hey. In System Manager it says my CPU is in use 100% but the processes are totalling about 20%
[17:35] <IntuitiveNipple> smm289: You'd need to start nautilus as root, if your current user doesn't already own the file. Otherwise, choose Properties on the file and then the Permissions tab
[17:36] <X-c0r3> Guys, how to add Logitec USB microphone in Ubuntu 8.04
[17:36] <UnionPivo> smm289, yes just rightclick on file select properties and then permisions tab
[17:36] <smm289> How do I start Nautilus a root
[17:36] <WDC> Hey. In System Manager it says my CPU is in use 100% but the processes are totalling about 20%
[17:36] <EvilDaemon> What is the location for scripts on left click? ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/
[17:37] <IntuitiveNipple> smm289: gksudo nautilus /
[17:37] <petrele> rxndx, maybe you can try "sudo rm -rf `locate firefox`", it can help you remove most files related to firefox, and then reinstall firefox
[17:37] <rxndx> IntuitiveNipple,I removed /usr/bin/firefox
[17:37] <hunger_> hey everyone
[17:37] <smm289> I think I have that installed, from within Nautilus I have a right click option that allows me to open a file as Administrator
[17:37] <cyban> Thing says use Ctrl+Alt+Button 1 but I dont see what the binding is for "Button 1"
[17:37] <rxndx> IntuitiveNipple, will try reinstalling
[17:37] <WDC> Anyone? Sys manager sez 100% usage but it definatly is not
[17:37] <cyban> Is there a generic default er
[17:37] <IntuitiveNipple> rxndx: how about the other firefox-2 files?
[17:38] <rxndx> IntuitiveNipple,  don't see any
[17:38] <rxndx> petrele,  I will try that now
[17:38] <wx9j_> how can I shut down nautilus ????????????????????
[17:38] <hunger_> I just got a new 22" (1680x1050@60hz) and the screen is flickering, running the latest Nvidia drivers (173.14.12?) on hardy.  Been googling for the past couple of days no solutions so far.  I've also connected it to a windows machine and no flickering at all any ideas?
[17:38] <Schmittydoesit> wx9j_: killall nautilus
[17:39] <cyban> wx9j change the HZ output
[17:39] <wx9j_> Schmittydoesit, I have tried that over and over, it only restarts, then will not respond
[17:39] <rxndx> petrele,  I ran the command but nothing was found
[17:39] <MadHag> hunger_,  use windows
[17:39] <IntuitiveNipple> rxndx: okay... check places like /usr/lib/firefox just-in-case
[17:39] <genius> wx9j_: xkill
[17:39] <smm289> Solved :)  thank you, I had to right click the folder, Open as Administrator, now I I am able to right click the file and change the owner.  Thank U
[17:39] <rxndx> IntuitiveNipple,  ok
[17:39] <Bigmack83> i am trying to use rmdir to remove a directory but i get an error that it has files in it. it there another command i can use to delete it if it has contents in that dir?
[17:39] <genius> hunger_: install envy
[17:39] <hunger_> madhag i'd rather not, would prefer to fix it in linux if i can
[17:39] <hunger_> genius, didn't have much luck w/ envy actually
[17:40] <MadHag> yes, try envy
[17:40] <fr4nk-k> Bigmack83: rm -rf /dir
[17:40] <petrele> rxndx: it runs for a while, then it exit with nothing, is it?
[17:40] <hunger_> maybe i'll give it another go
[17:40] <IntuitiveNipple> Bigmack83: Use "rm -rf <dir>" to recursively force deletion of files and directories
[17:40] <genius> hunger_: it turns on then off?
[17:40] <Bigmack83> fr500, thx
[17:40] <Bigmack83> ok ty
[17:40] <fr4nk-k> np
[17:40] <tstebut> sudo rm -rf / for exemple
[17:40] <hunger_> genius, more like horizontal bars flickering on the screen
[17:40] <rxndx> petrele, no...
[17:40] <tstebut> was a joke
[17:40] <IntuitiveNipple> smm289: Did you sort the remote scanner connection out?
[17:40] <valentinex> hi for C basic user which c compiler etc used in ubuntu?
[17:41] <kaenciel> dj
[17:41] <IntuitiveNipple> valentinex: gcc
[17:41] <valentinex> ok
[17:41] <smm289> ﻿IntuitiveNipple: I don't think its possible
[17:41] <genius> hunger_: looks like you has wrong resolution or frequency.
[17:41] <ventruvian007> Has anyone installed Ubuntu on a Presario? Does anyone know how to get the wireless to run?
[17:41] <Bigmack83> tstebut, haha yea right. im not going to delete my harddrive
[17:41] <rxndx> IntuitiveNipple,  ok, will re-install ff 3.0
[17:41] <fr4nk-k> IntuitiveNipple: not g++??
[17:41] <petrele> rxndx, did you turn on the tracker?
[17:41] <rxndx> IntuitiveNipple,  brb
[17:41] <IntuitiveNipple> smm289: Is the host with the scanner running Windows or Linux?
[17:41] <rxndx> petrele,  no
[17:42] <rxndx> petrele,  brb
[17:42] <smm289> ﻿IntuitiveNippleI: just remoted desktoped to the host with the scanner (ubuntu) and then used the HP tools to scan the document
[17:42] <hunger_> genius, monitors on screen display shows 1680x1050, nvidia-settings shows 1680x1050 both at 60hz also
[17:42] <rampageoberon> IntuitiveNipple: Hi again, i'm having a slight problem, read through the manuals and the /etc/hosts.deny needs the user@host but i can't seem to get it to work. Does it read hosts.allow first or hosts.deny?
[17:42] <IntuitiveNipple> smm289: I posted you a link on how to use xsane to connect to a remote printer, did you miss it?
[17:42] <petrele> rxndx, if not, try to replace locate firefox with other cmd which can find the files having firefox in its name
[17:43] <tstebut> :p
[17:43] <smm289> ﻿IntuitiveNipple: The printer is not a network capable printer, its just a USB printer that I am sharing from the file server.  I don't think the scanner is available to network users.  I can print to the printer fine across the network, I just cant use the scanner
[17:43] <IntuitiveNipple> rampageoberon: I'm not sure... let me read up on it :) (if it is like apache it does deny then allow by default)
[17:43] <IsTI37> My desktop crashed (only desktop,not gnome panel) ?
[17:43] <IsTI37> How I restart it ?
[17:43] <IntuitiveNipple> smm289: See the answers to this and the following FAQ http://www.xs4all.nl/~ljm/SANE-faq.html#19
[17:44] <genius> hunger_: sorry, i don't sure how to help you
[17:44] <MadHag> IsTI37, try rebooting
[17:44] <rxndx> petrele,  I am reinstalling ff 3.0... will see if it works
[17:44] <wajib> ﻿I'm not detecting wireless networks.  It's my first full day of using Ubuntu, so I suspect it may be something fairly obvious.  My wireless card is "Atheros Communications Inc. AR242x 802.11abg Wireless PCI Express Adapter (rev 01)".  My Network Settings only lists the connections "Wired connection" and "Point to point connection"; I'm guessing it's supposed to list my wireless in there?
[17:44] <smm289> The printer/scanner is attached to a linux box
[17:44] <IsTI37> MadHag , without restarting X...
[17:44] <dennda> Is gvim contained in vim-gnome or vim-gtk?
 one day at the office , I had tto do a "rm -rf ./somedir/bin"
[17:44] <Visseroth> is there a ubuntu server room?
[17:45] <MadHag> wajib, did you install magic wand?
[17:45] <deep_blue> what command should be used to install compiz fusion? is anyone using it?
[17:45] <IntuitiveNipple> smm289: Also, this should help: http://www.xs4all.nl/~ljm/SANE-faq.html#92
[17:45] <genius> hunger_: you can try to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[17:45] <rxndx> IntuitiveNipple,  ok... worked
[17:45] <hunger_> genius, hehe its cool i've been googling for the past 2 days, there seems to be know solution yet....
[17:45] <rxndx> IntuitiveNipple,  big thanx
[17:45] <wajib> MadHag: Er, never heard of it.  Lemme see...
[17:45] <rxndx> petrele,  thanx ;)
[17:45] <ventruvian007> Anyone know how to get the wireless of a Presario to work?
[17:45] <IntuitiveNipple> rxndx: what was the solution?
[17:45] <MadHag> joking pal
[17:45] <hunger_> genius hehe http://paste.ubuntu.com/48622/ that's my xorg.conf i have no idea how many iterations i've gone through :(
[17:45] <tstebut> but I hit the space bar by error so it made  "rm -rf ./somedir /bin"
[17:45] <genius> hunger_: and set the vertical and horizontal resolutions from monitor's manual
[17:45] <nosbig> X-c0r3, have you plugged it in?  And I am not trying to be sarcastic?
[17:45] <nosbig> Plugging it in should trigger Ubuntu to add the device to your inventory of audio devices and allow you to select it for just about any ALSA-aware application...  except the Adobe Flash player for Linux...  Last time I checked, I couldn't use a USB mic on sites like Ustream and Stickam in Linux.
[17:46] <Bigmack83> tstebut, youhad to do that? what for?
[17:46] <tstebut> and deleted ./somedir in home dir, and....the hole bin dir....
[17:46] <smm289> I'm going to wait on trying to get scanner access across the network, looks like alot of work (lazy saterday).
[17:46] <genius> hunger_: i had to mess with monitor for three days :)
[17:46] <Bigmack83> ;p;
[17:46] <Bigmack83> ;p;
[17:46] <petrele> rxndx, you are welcome.
[17:46] <rxndx> IntuitiveNipple,  removing the /usr/bin/firefox app and changing the launcher to launch firefox-3.0 %u instead of firefox %u
[17:46] <Bigmack83> stupid keyboard
[17:46] <hunger_> genius, yeah that's my next step right now i made one change i haven't tested yet, but i'm going to just set a single rate rather than the current range that's listed
[17:46] <tstebut>  <Bigmack83>I just wanted to delete some temp dir that uses too mutch space
[17:46] <IntuitiveNipple> smm289: It shouldn't be at all... as long as the scanner is already handled by xsane backend on the remote, the xsane front-end on the local PC should be able to connect to it
[17:47] <Bigmack83> thats funny
[17:47] <genius> hunger_: do you have two outlets on nvidia video card?
 So be very careful with those commands, be as calm as possible, advice
[17:47] <IntuitiveNipple> rxndx: That doesn't sound correct - the firefox-3.0 package should install its own /usr/bin/firefox script
[17:48] <genius> hunger_: maybe there is solution please private
[17:48] <hunger_> genius, this is on my laptop so its one connector
[17:48] <tstebut> yeah, keybord or PEBCAC
[17:48] <Bigmack83> tstebut. theres no recovery command in inux is there? like in windows deleted items get put to the trash and you can restore them if needed
[17:48] <tstebut> you choose
[17:48] <petrele> has anyone encountered with the "GLIB_CRYTICAL" errors?
[17:48] <Bigmack83> yea
[17:49] <ykphuah> is there a way to transfer files to my H/P using bluetooth anymore?
[17:49] <tstebut> Well I'd like to lurn it if it existed ..? does it ?

[17:49] <usser> anybody uses intel wireless?

[17:50] <petrele> has anyone encountered with the "GLIB_CRYTICAL" errors?
[17:50] <FAJALOU> hi i am looking for some help:  i have a d-link pci notebook wifi card, and an encrypted network.  Last night i was working on this and i was able to connect, but now it is having many trouble connecting to it, and I can only connect to the city's wifi network.  Can anyone help me out
[17:50] <IntuitiveNipple> usser: Yes

[17:51] <smm289> ﻿well guys, thanks for the help, I will try the scanner thing some other time
[17:51] <IntuitiveNipple> petrele: Do you mean "GLIB_CRITICAL" ?
[17:51] <FAJALOU> sorry :P
[17:51] <petrele> IntuitiveNipple, yep

[17:52] <usser> IntuitiveNipple, and now whenever computer comes out of sleep, and wifi knocks in it locks down keyboard and all system becomes unresponsive
[17:52] <rampageoberon> IntuitiveNipple: Okay, with the line "sshd: ALL" in hosts.deny it works fine blocks as expected, but can't get "sshd: guest@hostname" to work. Any ideas?
[17:52] <IntuitiveNipple> rampageoberon: Is that in hosts.allow ?
[17:52] <max_> Alright, so I did the upgrade to ibex 8.10, but now it won't work.
[17:52] <IntuitiveNipple> rampageoberon: Have you tried guest@1.2.3.4 format?
[17:52] <rampageoberon> IntuitiveNipple: no hosts.deny. I'm trying to stop the guest user ssh access
[17:53] <max_> There's no graphical interface whatsoever.
[17:53] <rampageoberon> IntuitiveNipple: not tried that format, will try now
[17:53] <IntuitiveNipple> rampageoberon: ahhh... sorry, I'm getting confudled :)

[17:54] <arschofsong> how can i remove the realplayer
[17:54] <arschofsong> ?
[17:54] <rampageoberon> IntuitiveNipple: sorry, i explain briefly. I have a guest user account which I don't want to allow ssh access to so trying to disable it in hosts.deny
[17:54] <max_> alright, better. So I don't have a graphival display for ibex. what command should I run to fix this?
[17:54] <cyban> Anyone know where the setting for having more than 2 Workspaces it?
[17:54] <IntuitiveNipple> rampageoberon: yeah, so everyone *but* guest isn't allowed to connect?
[17:54] <max_> running gdm dowsn't seem to work.

[17:55] <ykphuah> cyban: right click on the desktop switcher at the lower right
[17:55] <petrele> IntuitiveNipple, i tried, but all of them are talking about bug reports, i want to fix it. i'll still try
[17:55] <randomlogic78> are the linux-restriced-modules and madwifi-tools not on the cdroms?
[17:55] <rampageoberon> IntuitiveNipple: yes to the second statement :)
[17:55] <ykphuah> cyban: and click on preferences. :)
[17:55] <IntuitiveNipple> petrele: The bug reports might lead you to the cause and from there you can create a fix

[17:55] <roccko> hi. i'm loading a movie as torrent. it's still loading at 31,5 %. i'm able to see this movie on totem and vlc, but it has many "empty spaces" in the movie. that means, that totem and vlc are playing this movie with long pauses when the players reach an "empty space" in this movie. how can i configure in totem or vlc, that these "empty spaces" are leaving out during watcing movie? i hope u understand me.

[17:57] <ripken204> how can i map an sftp folder to my home dir?
[17:57] <Daps> i already have samba installed it appears
[17:58] <jude_> roccko : the file will have gaps until download is complete
[17:58] <Daps> it says not allowed from backend
[17:58] <Daps> when u right click and try to share
[17:58] <xbxbxb> UnionPivo:  thanks for your reply. Is there a way to get a prompt to mount the encrypted home dir before gnome starts?
[17:58] <Daps> it says not allowed from backend
[17:58] <roccko> @jude_: when i use "dragon player", everything works fine. these "gaps" are simply leaving out.
[17:58] <IntuitiveNipple> rampageoberon: Did you read the section of man hosts_access titled "CLIENT USERNAME LOOKUP" - it seems to suggest the client username will be "unknown" unless the client is running an ID service
[17:59] <roccko> @jude_: but i want to se totem
[17:59] <IntuitiveNipple> rampageoberon: looks like identd on the client would be a solution, if that is the reason the rule isn't working as expected
[17:59] <rampageoberon> IntuitiveNipple: sorry, my bad, i'll read it again
[17:59] <jude_> roccko : I'm not a totem user

[18:06] <Adder> the top and the bottom of the cube are cube caps and are not used as desktops
[18:06] <Infinito-> natenjo_HLBG, as long I as know you can't use the top and bottom faces to desktop
[18:07] <Infinito-> you can place pictures there though
[18:07] <ebfe> slightly off-topic but does anyone have a working nvidia cuda environment running under linux?
[18:07] <Adder> intuitivenipple: is there some way i can get around this?
[18:07] <natenjo_HLBG> aah and how??
[18:07] <IntuitiveNipple> Adder: split the file over multiple parts
[18:07] <ghzroy> akoya
[18:07] <Adder> but how would i do that with the whole HD
[18:08] <Decepticon> is it advisable to use checkinstall to upgrade a package i installed from apt-get but has a more recent version in source only (without uninstalling my original install and installing straight up and without messing up configuration files/settings/functional setup)
[18:08] <Adder> is there a single command i canuse?
[18:09] <Infinito-> natenjo_HLBG, it's somewhere on desktop cube settings, but I can't remember the exact path now
[18:09] <IntuitiveNipple> Adder: I *think* tar --multi-volume might do that, but you'll need to investigate
[18:10] <nananuu> What could I do? I mad e terrible mistake I installed adobe flash who was for older ubuntu how to remove it?
[18:10] <natenjo_HLBG> thx^ i am looking thre since quite a while but can fine anything :(
[18:10] <Adder> intuitivenipple: thats why i'm here lol i'm really stuck and it's imperitive i get it done today or tomorow
[18:11] <rhinocerious^> i want to change 'OpenWith' for my avi files but currently it stucks here for 5 hours.  does anyone know how to change 'OpenWith' for avi files?  (it stucks here : http://img177.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshotbe2.png )

[18:22] <thesaint4444> IntuitiveNipple: thanks, I installed the tcllibs and there is an md5crypt module but I have no idea how to use it... do you? thanks.
[18:22] <IntuitiveNipple> FAJ: It's not something that at this stage is easily worked out remotely. You need to pay close attention to logs, configs, and cross-reference against internet searches to try to pin it down.

[18:42] <Flannel> arvind_khadri: Alright, then that all lines up.  32bit OSes can only address 4GB of memory total.  Some of that (512MB) is taken up by your graphics card, and some of it is taken up by other stuff (peripherals, etc).  2.7GB is right on par when you have a graphics card of 512.  Why it showed 3GB before, I'm not sure.  You can switch to 64bit to get around that limitation
[18:42] <csilk> nitin,  thats why we have clipboards
[18:42] <IntuitiveNipple> thesaint4444: From what I can make out, you can use openssl to do it: "openssl passwd -1"
[18:42] <nitin> lol :)
[18:42] <icedtea> Daps: post your /etc/samba/smb.conf on paste.ubuntu.com

[18:42] <biouser> how to see all the server daemons I have running and what ports they are listening on?
[18:42] <Flannel> arvind_khadri: there is technically PAE, which allows you to have more, but its a pretty bad hack (and in this case will require you to recompile anyway)
[18:43] <Flannel> arvind_khadri: Then install a 64bit OS
[18:43] <Guest90949> Ockonal: You now have the fonts installed - you can use them in documents, set them for use by the system, etc
[18:43] <Daps> icedtea: when i click on network servers in the file browser i see my computer... then when i click in there i see the folder i created and the printer folder but can't open either, nor can i add a new folder in there
[18:43] <Daps> ok
[18:43] <andrei321> i dont recommend 64bit OS
[18:43] <arvind_khadri> Flannel: its 64 bit edition of Ubuntu
[18:43] <thesaint4444> IntuitiveNipple: winner! how did you find that out? many thanks.
[18:43] <icedtea> Daps: post your /etc/samba/smb.conf on paste.ubuntu.com

[18:45] <amanulla> how to know weather my system is 32 or 64 bit
[18:45] <biouser> netstat -l gave me most of what I was looking for..
[18:45] <IntuitiveNipple> nitin: I saw in the forums someone reporting how to configure it, and it had to do with adding to xorg.conf a Screen SubSection that had Virtual "2048 x 2048" or similar so that when X starts it thinks the total display size is the maximum. Then, when another display is connected, you can choose where it is located in that area without X having to be restarted.
[18:45] <csilk> Flannel,  pastebin is just a default reponse for most people that have experienced stupid people trying to paste things like there x config file into irc haha
[18:45] <Flannel> arvind_khadri: hmmm.  Alright.  You shouldn't need to worry about 4GB limit.  Are you sure the RAM is good?
[18:46] <Oli``> Why don't virtualhosts in apache work for me? Default appears to override everything else and when I have two non-Default sites up, they take it in turns to override each other. It's all a bit squiffy.
[18:46] <CorbinFox> is there a way to get wacom tablets installed on 8.04?  The method i used to get it working on 7.10 doesnt work in 8.04
[18:46] <andrei321> Flannel: not really
[18:46] <arvind_khadri> Flannel: ya... am sure...i got it today.. they are 2 sticks if its not fine then the machine wont boot
[18:46] <Flannel> arvind_khadri: Only thing I can think of now is a stick is bad or something.  Try the usual, memtest, etc.
[18:46] <arvind_khadri> Flannel: ok what should i look in there?
[18:46] <Flannel> Oli``: What are the other virtualhosts doing differently?  ports? names? what?
[18:46] <nitin> IntuitiveNipple: The thing is it doesnt get detected only
[18:46] <andrei321> or try 8.04 if you are not using it
[18:46] <biouser> Oli``, I don't know I have been experiencing some interesting behaviour too
[18:47] <icedtea> Daps: so you created a folder in dir test... or test is the folder  you created?
[18:47] <Daps> icedtea: notice too at the bottom where i edited, the path for test is the desktop.. yet there is no "TEST" folder on my desktop.. its in the network server folder
[18:47] <biouser> Where is the most current documentation for ubuntu-server, hardy, 8.04?
[18:47] <Oli``> Flannel: I've got them as different names, eg I want http://localhost showing default, http://site1 using the site1 config, etc
[18:47] <Flannel> arvind_khadri: just run it and see if it all works, and also see how much RAM it sees (BIOS should have a mem display too).  memtest won't end on its own, so go ahead and kill it after it completes a cycle (go have lunch or something)
[18:47] <CorbinFox> is there a way to get wacom tablets installed on 8.04?  The method i used to get it working on 7.10 doesnt work in 8.04
[18:47] <IntuitiveNipple> nitin: That may be because it doesn't provide an EDID response, in which case you add it into xorg.conf manually as a "Display" section and associate it with a "Screen" and possibly a "Driver"
[18:47] <smm289> so..  MS Viso Alternative ??
[18:47] <andrei321> look into your BIOS it has to have a option to support 4G or more
[18:47] <Oli``> smm289: tried Dia?
[18:48] <Flannel> biouser: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.04/serverguide/C/index.html
[18:48] <Andeh> Java JNLP files. How do I run them?
[18:48] <nitin> any link?
[18:48] <Daps> at the very bottom you will see what i edited. But it doesn't show up on my desktop.. it shows up in the linux network server
 javaws file.jnlp
[18:48] <arvind_khadri> Flannel: sure ... thanks a lot...
[18:48] <icedtea> Daps: what about the folder you created in Test, what are the folders permissions?
[18:48] <IntuitiveNipple> Oli`` It will likely depend on the /etc/hosts or DNS entries for the hostname, and assumes the browser sends an HTTP/1.1 host: header too.

[18:50] <biouser> To allow other computers to connect to your PostgreSQL server replace 'localhost' with the IP Address of your server.   <- the web server that is trying to connect or the database server woth the configuration file?

 what java are you using ?
[18:50] <Flannel> mkquist: escape the spaces with \, put it in quotes.  tab complete will escape for you as well.

[18:51] <dr3mro> how to install latest version of nautilus in ubuntu 8.04
[18:51] <Andeh> andrei321: Before it didn't do anything so I installed libnetx-java to run jnlp files
[18:51] <mike-ubuntu> IntuitiveNipple: i'm not sure, I don't have internet at home and its a desktop so i'm not near it, but I can check when i get there, what steps do i take after that to get the driver to load?
[18:51] <icedtea> Daps: open up a Terminal... go to the gnome/ubuntu menu, Accessories->Terminal
 send me a link to that .jnlp file i will try it
[18:51] <Daps> icedtea: ok i'm there
[18:51] <icedtea> Daps: or use nautilus, the folder/file explorer
[18:51] <Flannel> Oli``: If theyre not, I'd guess that your virtualhost configs weren't set up entirely correctly.

[18:52] <Decepticon> is it advisable to use checkinstall to upgrade a package i installed from apt-get but has a more recent version in source only (without uninstalling my original install and installing straight up and without messing up configuration files/settings/functional setup)
[18:52] <IntuitiveNipple> mike-ubuntu: If you can identify the PCI Vendor:Product ID (e.g. 1234:ab67) you can check for support for that device in linux releases, possibly find a driver or workaround to allow you to install
[18:52] <Daps> icedtea: i don't think i have nautilus, or do i? i am using ubuntu 8.04.1
[18:52] <icedtea> Daps: type ls -ld /home/zidaps/Desktop/test
[18:53] <Oli``> IntuitiveNipple: the /etc/hosts entries are in there. It is showing stuff in the browser, just the wrong site and only one at a time (ie all local domains show the same site, incorrectly)
[18:53] <icedtea> Daps: nautilus come with ubuntu by default, see all the icons on your desktop? thats nautilus working
[18:53] <nitin> how do i setup a video streaming server on ubuntu hardy
[18:53] <IntuitiveNipple> Oli`` Hmmm... have you analysed the site access.log, or /var/log/apache2/ logs ?
[18:53] <Oli``> Flannel: Just wondering if there's a way to completely scrub all the apache settings I have and start again.. apt-get remove --purge didn't do the job
[18:54] <Mww113> Excuse me, I need help.
[18:54] <jburd> Oli``: sudo aptitude purge apache2
[18:54] <Flannel> Oli``: It will, you just have to purge the package with the config in it (apache2.2-common)
[18:54] <jburd> !ask | Mww113
[18:54] <mike-ubuntu> IntuitiveNipple: how do i find out if it's going to present a problem to grub? I was reading around some forums and some people found that although they got the installer to recognize thier controller, grub would not see it with would make it impossible to boot to either windows or linux.
[18:54] <Daps> icedtea, ok.. so how do i open nautilus? i typed what you said (copy and paste to avoid error) it says:  cannot access /home/zidaps/Desktop/test: No such file or directory
[18:54] <IntuitiveNipple> Oli`` If you set the sites up via symlinks in /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/ from ../sites-available/ and the virtual host entries don't conflict (which it sounds like they are doing) it would work.
[18:54] <Decepticon> i am on hardy, is it advisable to install a newer version package from intrepid repository? (and how does one do it?)
[18:54] <Flannel> Decepticon: no
[18:55] <IntuitiveNipple> Oli`` can you pastebin the config files for the problem virtual domains ?
[18:55] <hz_> may I know how to share or read shared folders with windows?

[18:55] <david2323> Do you know any X-window compiler for Ubuntu?
[18:55] <ksbalaji> arvind_khadri, thankssss  a lot for your help in PM. Bye friends for now.
[18:56] <Decepticon> Flannel then how do i uupgrade my package to the newest version... the only other option i have is source... how do i do this with a older pakage already installed and having configs already sitting around
[18:56] <Decepticon> Flannel checkinstall?
[18:56] <hz_> Flannel, I've it but donno how to use it after sharing the folder it's not accessable on other pcs
[18:56] <Flannel> Decepticon: Why not just wait for Intrepid?  What new features of nautilus do you want?
[18:56] <DIFH-iceroot> david2323: you mean a GUI like eclipse, qt-designer-kdevelop?
[18:56] <IntuitiveNipple> Oli``:  The crucial bit in each is a different "ServerName hostname" entry
[18:56] <Decepticon> Flannel its not nautilus, its 'munin'
[18:56] <Falstius> anyone have a resource for setting up a bittorrent tracker using Ubuntu?  I want to share a video of a recent vacation with friends and don't want to use a public tracker.

[18:57] <hz_> Flannel, and I can't even see the other pcs so how can I?
[18:57] <IntuitiveNipple> Falstius: Azureus has one built-in you can enable
[18:57] <mike-ubuntu> would grub possibly not see an sata drive?
[18:57] <Flannel> Decepticon: You can backport it with that.  But why do you need the new version?
[18:57] <randomlogic78> I followed the directions on this site -> http://madwifi.org/wiki/UserDocs/802.11i to set up my wifi card on Hardy-server and I'm not getting connected to my network.  When I try to ping the router, the network is unreachable, and the link light blinking slowly on my nic

[18:58] <Azazel-A2> If I download the source to an applet and compile it in ubuntu, and everything worked, how do I get this applet to show up in the add applet menu in gnome?
[18:58] <Daps> after i did ﻿mkdir /home/zidaps/Desktop/test
[18:58] <Falstius> Intuitive ubuntu seems to have a service for it, I'm just not sure how to use it.
[18:58] <icedtea> Daps: right click on the test folder on the desktop, check permissions
[18:59] <IntuitiveNipple> Falstius: For a tracker? which package?
[18:59] <maxagaz> I have boot on a liveusb but I can't activate the compiz fusion, why ?
[18:59] <Falstius> trackerd
[18:59] <Daps> it lists me as the owner and i have folder access as create and delete files
[18:59] <Falstius> IntuitiveNipple: trackerd
[18:59] <Daps> files access ---
[18:59] <Falstius> IntuitiveNipple: oh, nm.  that is for file indexing.
[19:00] <Daps> others - folder access: access files
[19:00] <Daps> icedtea: thank you.. i can access it now the problem was that the folder didn't exist
[19:01] <IntuitiveNipple> Falstius: I did wonder :)
[19:01] <Azazel-A2>  If I download the source to an applet and compile it in ubuntu, and everything worked, how do I get this applet to show up in the add applet menu in gnome?
[19:01] <Daps> icedtea: now lets see if my xp machine can see and open files in it ;)
[19:01] <icedtea> Daps: no prob, I don't think you'll be able to create files in that folder on network until you change the permissions, try it out though
[19:01] <dassouki> how can i copy all files , hidden files, subfolders, of a folder to another one ?
[19:01] <Daps> icedtea: change the permissions to what?

[19:17] <Flannel> norbert_: icecast includes an init script to start it.

[19:17] <mike-ubuntu> Would turning my sata hardrive into a raid0 array with only one harddrive in it slow down data transfer at all?

[19:22] <hardcore> andrei321,  have you tried it out? whats it like?
[19:22] <Azazel-A2> well there is remote desktoping, but I suggest you use putty and pass it on an encrypted tunnel if you go external with it.  turn on remote desktop in windows someone told me.  Now I once set up vpn on my linux server at work and then you can remote desktop that way
[19:22] <obi_de> CanadianLinux, try cat /proc/driver/nvidia/version  if you have a nvidea card

[19:37] <nathan42100> 1GB and yes
[19:37] <Flannel> xomp: Not very
[19:38] <Mion> xomp: 3-5 lines in menu.lst is all you need
[19:38] <Flannel> nathan42100: You need at least 1G of swap then.
[19:38] <xomp> Flannel, is there a guide on how to do it?

[19:38] <nathan42100> flannel, same drive or different drive if possible

[19:38] <xomp> Flannel, thanks :)
[19:38] <Flannel> nathan42100: Doesn't matter a whole lot.  With 1G of RAM, you probably will almost never use your swap, except for hibernation

[19:47] <info__> for tutorial
[19:47] <Gnea> !ask | sysrpl
[19:47] <jabapyth> info_: use k3b to burn it
[19:47] <sysrpl> i already asked
[19:47] <Gnea> Wizek: no, not with !ask
[19:47] <Bsims> info__: just burn it as an ISO not a data disk
[19:47] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> yes Chris
[19:47] <sysrpl> Gnea: didn't yu see my question?
[19:47] <Jack_Sparrow> info__ If you have Ubuntu..  just right click and write to disk
[19:48] <sysrpl> Gnea: ->  i am trying to get vmware to see an iso file i mounted with Gmount-iso... the drive selection in vmware gives me values like /dev/cdrom /dev/scd0 ... but that's is not my iso mount point (~/isomount) .... my question is what value should i give wmware? .. ~/isomount is NOT recognized when i start the virtual machine
[19:48] <Gnea> sysrpl: not at first... uhm, the preferences of the cdrom device in vmware will allow you to select an .iso file
[19:48] <rmn> i have a set of machines i'm going to administrate remotely.  i will only have a chance at installing after the scheduled release for 8.10-beta but before final.  Will the upgrade to final be cleaner than a similar install of 8.04?
[19:48] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> it comes back if i hover over the Window Menu button
[19:48] <o0Chris0o> I have the exact same problems with my nvidia 8600 gt, I tried to fix it, I was unable too, but the best place to try to get help would be #nvidia #compiz-fusion
[19:48] <icedtea> how do you get admin privileges in nautilus/the folder/file explorer?
[19:48] <info__> ok then i make write cd on data image
[19:49] <sysrpl> Gnea/: yes, but under certain situation is causes read errors and you should mount an image outside of vmware, then point vmware to that drive
[19:49] <Bsims> rmn: should be easy to upgrade to final
[19:49] <yoavk> quit: BB
[19:49] <Flannel> rmn: Upgrade from beta to final will be a regular "daily updates" sort of thing.
[19:49] <IntuitiveNipple> Yekyaa[Ubuntu]: l thought that was a 'feature' :) If you find out, let me know!
[19:49] <danbh_intrepid> rmn: I think the answer is yes.  Are you asking about whether or not to do a clean install of the beta, or an upgrade from hardy?  I would choose the beta
[19:49] <sysrpl> Gnea: the problem is ... i don't know how to point vmware to that drive ... linux doesn't have drive letters
[19:49] <Gnea> sysrpl: never had that problem befor, are you sure you selected it correctly and that the .iso doesn't have any errors?
[19:49] <xomp> Flannel: I'm in the live cd for Hardy right now and am only wanting to use 10GB of my 25Gb available space but don't see how I can specify this in the installer :S
[19:50] <xomp> !dualboot
[19:50] <Gnea> sysrpl: thankfully! drive letters are weak.
[19:50] <rmn> excellent.  thanks, Bsims, Flannel and danbh_intrepid .
[19:50] <Flannel> xomp: Do manual partitioning, and then only create a 10GB partition
[19:50] <sysrpl> Gnea: and when i point vmware to my mount point (/home/username/isomount) ... the virtual machine doesn't see a cdrom device attached
[19:50] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> Hmmm, seems it's a known bug
[19:51] <Gnea> sysrpl: right. you're not supposed to set it to a mountpoint, you're supposed to set it to the iso file itself. vmware knows how to handle it internally- that's why you're getting read errors
[19:51] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> apparently changing themes to non-Clearlooks themes fixes it, but how will that affect comiz-fusion?
[19:51] <sysrpl> Gnea: so i was wanting to know, if i mount my iso to /home/username/isonimage ... hwat do i tell vmware is the location of the drive?
[19:51] <Gnea> sysrpl: and the answer is: don't mount it. point vmware directly to the .iso
[19:51] <pxwebdev> Afternoon everyone, I have a .sh file that I created to ftp some data. When I run the command from shell it works fine, if I run it from a cron job I get no usch file or directory? What would cause the cron job to do that?
[19:51] <sysrpl> Gnea: that won't work ...
[19:51] <Gnea> sysrpl: wrong, i've done it hundreds of times.
[19:51] <Wizek> ﻿then i think it's the end of my linux carier :) moving back to nicely-WORKING Vista......... what a pritty, i just wanted to try this out.... Good luck.....
[19:52] <sysrpl> Gnea: all the guidees i have read for this particular iso image say DO NOT mount the image inside vmware ... instead mount it outside of vmware and point vmware to that drive
[19:52] <rmn> danbh_intrepid:  it will be a fresh install of either the beta or 8.04 in the second week of october (beta scheduled to the third, was it?).
[19:52] <aantn> does ubuntu's firewall block cvs by default?
[19:52] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> switched to Glossy fixes it
[19:52] <Gnea> sysrpl: so have you even TRIED pointing vmware directly at it?
[19:53] <sysrpl> Gnea: and when i do mount inside of vmware with this image i get a specific error generated at boot from the iso image which is caused by mounting it inside of wmware
[19:53] <xomp> Flannel: There appear to be a fathom of choices in the manual partition setup lol, is there anything I should choose?
[19:53] <IntuitiveNipple> sysrpl: that is expected behaviour since the mounting has effectively opened the ISO already. Does vmware have an option to mount an ISO file directly? If not, unmount the iso and then do something like "sudo losetup /dev/loop0 file.iso" and try pointing vmware to /dev/loop0
[19:53] <Gnea> sysrpl: what .iso is it?
[19:53] <sysrpl> Gnea: that's it .. i don't know the "locatrion" of the drive to give to vmware .. i.e. there is no drive ltter
[19:53] <Bsims> xomp: I like ext3 myself for a partition type
[19:53] <sysrpl> letter
[19:53] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> IntuitiveNipple: switching from Human theme to Glossy just fixed it for me, apparently it's non-gtk2 themes from what i'm reading
[19:53] <xomp> Flannel: like partition format (ext3, reiser etc.) and mounting point
[19:53] <Flannel> xomp: Just create a new partition (you'll actually be making two, one for / and one for swap).  The / is going to be ext3, and the mount point will be /
[19:53] <IntuitiveNipple> Yekyaa[Ubuntu]: many thanks!
[19:53] <JusticeZero> Hey, I lost the "applications places system" part of the bar on top of the screen somehow. How do I get it back?
[19:53] <Gnea> sysrpl: this isn't windows.
[19:54] <Flannel> xomp: the swap one will be type "swap" and there is no mount point
[19:54] <sysrpl> Gnea: JaS.OSx86.10.5.4.Client.Server.Intel.SSE2.SSE3.iso
[19:54] <sysrpl> Gnea: i know
[19:54] <xomp> Flannel: ok, 100000 is 10Gb right? lol
[19:54] <sysrpl> Gnea: i am asking how to tell vmware the "location" of the drive
[19:55] <sysrpl> Gnea: since,as we have both said, there are no drive ltters
[19:55] <info__> but i really have to say i love linux :P
[19:55] <Flannel> xomp: 100000 what?
[19:55] <Gnea> sysrpl: the people in #vmware should be able to help then
[19:55] <xomp> Flannel: "New partition size in MB" I don't know what to set it at for 10GB :(
[19:55] <roukoun> JusticeZero: right click on the panel and go to +Add to Panel... then add the "Menu Bar" in the utilities tab
[19:56] <Flannel> xomp: 10000MB is 10GB (this is with 1GB == 1000MB) but you're *probably* used to 1GB == 1024MB.  Which would be 10240MB
[19:57] <iddo> how can i prevent seahorse from revealing my empathy gtalk password?
[19:57] <aantn> ~firewall
[19:57] <aantn> !firewall
[19:57] <xomp> lol "Too small size" with a partition size of 25Gb lmao
[19:58] <JusticeZero> Okay, that did it, now how do I put it where i'm used to it instead of in the middle?
[19:58] <Flannel> xomp: that doesn't make sense.
[19:58] <Flannel> xomp: Are you sure you're not off by a factor of 10 or something?
[19:59] <xecration> Does anyone know if Terminal logs its operations somewhere? I accidently chmodded my system to 775 but i quit the terminal as soon as i relized i made a boo boo like 2 seconds after i clicked enter
[19:59] <Flannel> xomp: 10G should be plenty.
[19:59] <xomp> Flannel: well I've decided to go with the guided and let it use all the freespace 25Gb and when I hit "Ok" on the prompt that comes up after it says "Too small" lol
[19:59] <xecration> Is there somewhere that logs permission changes so i can see if i fuxored any important files up?
[19:59] <w-mute> Hi. When I play DVDs in VLC I get fine video, but the sound is just white noise. The DVD plays okay in Xine but Xine is flaky. Totem works but doesn't find the DVD menu. What can I do about the sound?
[19:59] <JusticeZero> Nevermind, I figured it out.
[19:59] <Flannel> xecration: The logs would only keep the command, not the operations performed.  There is no automatic way of recovering.
[20:00] <jamesish> xomp: What partition was that?
[20:00] <DasEi> ﻿ xecration:there is a cache for written cmds, you can list last cmds with arrow up/down
[20:00] <xecration> alrighty, thanks guess ill wait and see if stuff stops working then reinstall
[20:00] <xecration> thing is it was a recursive change
[20:00] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> ok, when looking for themes, what should i be looking for, GDM, GTK2.x, and what's the difference?
[20:00] <xecration> =(
[20:00] <sysrpl> Gnea: okay ... well then basically ... how can i tell which devices in /dev link to which mount points (i.e. ~/isomount)?
[20:01] <Mion> Yekyaa[Ubuntu]: you probably want gtk2 and metacity themes
[20:01] <Legion[]> With regards to virtual memory, can I share a swap partition for both Ubuntu and Vista?
[20:01] <roukoun> sysrpl: look at the /etc/fstab
[20:01] <xomp> now it's stuck at 'Starting up the Partitioner" lol sheesh
[20:01] <jamesish> Legion:no. They use different formats internally.
[20:01] <info__> but i have to say good bye linux my wlan doesnt work ;( was a nice time guys
[20:01] <JusticeZero> Hmm, I need to figure out how to get my network running better for when it isn't here - someone changed a lot of settings and broke the network while trying to fix a broken network cable in the settings.
[20:01] <xomp> I have the worst of luck when it comes to this
[20:01] <Mion> Yekyaa[Ubuntu]: gtk2 controlls the look of the stuff inside the windows, while metacity controlls the decoration around the window
[20:02] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> Mion: trying to avoid metacity, it causes the titlebar bug from what i understand
[20:02] <jamesish> info_: try an alternate unix-alike, such as FreeBSD. linux hates my wireless card, FreeBSD does fine.
[20:02] <xomp> attempt at dual booting has been abandoned lol, thanks anyways ;p
[20:02] <Mion> Yekyaa[Ubuntu]: then don't use gnome >_>
[20:02] <info__> mhhh i give it a try
[20:02] <Mion> Yekyaa[Ubuntu]: or use compiz or ob or something instead of metacity
[20:02] <Mion> as the wm in gnome
[20:02] <Falstius> xecration: where you using root or sudo when you executed the command?
[20:03] <JusticeZero> Use Compiz with the settings turned way down or off?
[20:03] <Crewsr3> Can I set up a server that everyone can get to but lock down the content filtering part of just one user.  Is it as simple as user rights?  I'm installing Dansguardian and I want to be the only person that can access those settings
[20:03] <info__> cya guys have a nice weekend
[20:03] <Kuroi_Neko> hi
[20:03] <JusticeZero> Hiya cat.
[20:03] <w-mute> burekko ketto
[20:03] <Kuroi_Neko> anyone knows of any way of browsing the web through shell?
[20:04] <jamesish> Kuroi_Neko: use links or lynx
[20:04] <Kuroi_Neko> tnx jamesish
[20:04] <Kuroi_Neko> gonna try and see if i manage to get it working :P
[20:04] <jamesish> Crews3: sounds like user permissions would do the trick
[20:04] <Flannel> Kuroi_Neko: w3m is already installed
[20:05] <jamesish> Kuroi_Neko: Its simple once you get used to navigating in it. Try reading the man page once it's installed.
[20:05] <Kuroi_Neko> tnx ^^
[20:05] <JusticeZero> Hey, is there a way to go back to all of the original install settings for network?
[20:05] <Kuroi_Neko> it might be easy, but... i mess things up easily :P
[20:06] <jamesish> JusticeZero: what do you mean, the original install settings? Did you statically set things up or did you use dhcp?
[20:07] <eirik_> is there a file manager less bloated than Nautilus, but with same or more functionality?
[20:07] <magentar> eirik_, thunar?
[20:08] <magentar> it's the xfce file manager, it's quite handy
[20:08] <eirik_> i'm using thunar but seems to be missing a lot of stuff
[20:08] <eirik_> it's definitely nicer
[20:08] <eirik_> with regard to speed
[20:08] <jamesish> erik_: I think I'm using rox right now.
[20:08] <eirik_> cool ill see what that's like
[20:08] <Kuroi_Neko> it was easier than expected :D
[20:09] <Falcons_roost> any good at and want to do a wib site test
[20:09] <magentar> eirik_, what's wrong with nautilus anyway? you can customize it, to slim it down
[20:09] <Crewsr3> Flannel, By the way thanks for your help last night, what you said did the trick.  I set up my usb and cdrom and the server install was able to work  Thanks again for your help
[20:09] <Flannel> Crewsr3: Ah, glad it worked.
[20:09] <Falcons_roost> anyone good @ doing web site Medi test
[20:10] <gilles> how to install ubuntu remix or mid onto a live usb ?
[20:10] <JusticeZero> Yes, the original install settings, as they were when I installed Ubuntu. I had trouble with a LAN at the house of someone who knows Windows networking, he tried to fix it, it turned out to be a physical problem with the cable, but my laptop has had many network problems since.
[20:10] <Crewsr3> Flannel, Now I just need to get everything set up the way I want it, Samba share, DHCP, DNS, Squid
[20:10] <Flannel> JusticeZero: pastebin your /etc/netwrk/interfaces
[20:10] <JusticeZero> this on my laptop - right now i'm on my desktop and the laptop is behind me.
[20:11] <Crewsr3> Flannel, but that will have to wait for another day
[20:11] <shingen> JusticeZero: Just say no to Windows l00sers touching your precious :P

[20:13] <Danny> hello! I installed Ubuntu using Wubi and now I cannot uninstall it. I click uninstall in Add/Remove, nothing happens. I double click the uninstall file in the ubuntu folder, again... nothing happens. any thoughts? :)
[20:13] <shingen> JusticeZero: have you considered booting off the livecd and taking some screenshots of the network configuration? :)
[20:13] <JusticeZero> Interfaces is empty. Interfaces~ is "auto lo (new line) iface lo inet loopback"

[20:14] <JusticeZero> sorry, those are lowercase, I just can't easily getr my fingers to not capitalize the first word of a sentence.
[20:14] <jamesish> Danny: as I recall, wubi just installs to a file. You could erase teh file and fix your boot settings, but it might be a better idea to post on the wubi section of the uibuntu forums for better support than that. They're pretty nice folks, as I recall.
[20:14] <vaportrail123> anyone know how to mount a ntfs drive such as a portable hard drive??
[20:15] <amanulla> Danny:are u installed it from xp
[20:15] <Danny> yes amanulla
[20:15] <Danny> thanks jamesish
[20:15] <Danny> :)
[20:15] <xomp> Flannel: it appears my problem with dualbooting has existed for awhile lol http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5820004 and nobody has yet to figure out a fix either
[20:15] <amanulla> you can get an exe file for unintalling it
[20:15] <eirik_> magentar: might wanna look at this howto http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=789578 . dunno if it's necessary but ive used it on several computers
[20:15] <gilles> roukoun: this works perfect => https://launchpad.net/liveusb
[20:16] <Flannel> JusticeZero: alright, that' fine.  Ok, so, go ahead and open that file with elevated privledges, add these lines: auto eth0 (newline) iface eth0 inet dhcp
[20:16] <magentar> i'll have a look thx
[20:16] <Kuroi_Neko> getting problems with configure, it says gcc cannot create executables... any hint of what could be wrong?
[20:16] <gilles> roukoun: but it's not what I need, I need this ubuntu http://www.canonical.com/netbooks in a live usb
[20:16] <Danny> the Uninstall-Ubuntu.exe does nothing :)
[20:16] <amanulla> Danny:it might be due to resons like installin it from a partition other than where xp is
[20:16] <Flannel> Kuroi_Neko: What are you trying to compile?
[20:17] <Kuroi_Neko> pvpgn
[20:17] <Kuroi_Neko> but... it happens on everything
[20:17] <jamesish> Kuroi_Neko: how much space you got on the drive?
[20:17] <Danny> uh. well it's true. it's on another partition. what to do then?
[20:17] <Flannel> Kuroi_Neko: You need to check the package repositories first, do this instead: sudo apt-get install pvpgn
[20:17] <Kuroi_Neko> i belive enough for a 1MB program...
[20:17] <xomp> I thought the ubuntu forums were bad for support, but man, nearly a year rolls bye and nobody even as much as acknowledges the issues half the time?
[20:17] <Maoma> halo
[20:17] <Maoma> selam
[20:17] <roukoun> Flannel: i would suggest you to configure JusticeZero's network to play with static configuration not with dhcp because of the stability!

[20:21] <ngirard__> Hi all, i'm about to leave from home during 1 week, and I need to access my box via ssh. Surprisingly enough, i'm not able any more to connect to a remote machine
[20:21] <ngirard__> I get: Permission denied (publickey,password)
[20:21] <ngirard__> I'm sure I typed the right username/password
[20:22] <r-p> !info ndiswrapper
[20:22] <xomp> jamesish: by the look of the screenshot there, about 49.3GB lol
[20:22] <jamesish> ngirard_ verify your RSA key settings and read your sshd_config to make sure you're allowing password logins.
[20:22] <Flannel> xomp: I believe the workaround is to do manual partitioning
[20:22] <Hagge> Hello, does anyone have tip on a OSS VoIP-server (and client) that works good and is cross-platform (including windoze), much like Ventrilo?
[20:22] <xomp> Flannel: but when I try and specify a manual partition size it won't accept the values I put in. :(
[20:22] <o0Chris0o_> Hagge: Team Speak 2
[20:23] <amanulla> Danny:is it ok now?
[20:23] <raulh> ﻿Urban Terror, how can i install this game can anyone help me over pm so i dont miss the message?
[20:23] <ngirard__> jamesish: Hi, thanks for your feedback. The trick is, i can open an ssh connection from a LAN machine
[20:23] <xomp> Flannel: example: I enter "100000" as partition size and tab down to the next line and it magically enters in '5371" or something in it's place
[20:23] <Hagge> o0Chris0o_: ok, thanks. And it is Opensource?
[20:23] <JusticeZero> I don't understand networking. My brother is a Windows network admin type. I was trying to hook into his LAN. It wasn't working. He got frustrated and started trying to get the settings to work. Three hours later his wife yanked the cord and found out that it had been burned almost in half by something, but since then my network has been screwed up.
[20:24] <Flannel> xomp: Are you sure you have unpartitioned space at the end of your drive?
[20:24] <o0Chris0o_> I don't know for sure
[20:24] <jamesish> ngirard_ does your router have port 22 open?
[20:24] <amanulla> Danny:are u there?
[20:24] <xomp> Flannel: I don't think I do to be honest, i failed to see anything in the docs about having unpartitioned space lol
[20:24] <JusticeZero> Nobody, including my brother, knows what settings were changed.
[20:24] <xomp> Flannel: I was under the assumption it used available freespace :(
[20:25] <roukoun> ngirard_: you can access your box from the same lan but you cant access it outside it?
[20:25] <ngirard__> jamesish: ooops damn damn I was wrong. I can't login any more via ssh from my 2nd machine !!
[20:25] <Flannel> xomp: Well, you'd see it when you see your little harddrive usage thing.  Available freespace likely means space that is unused inside of your windows partition
[20:25] <xomp> Flannel: maybe I should partition the disk with Partition Magic in Windows? it's the only thing I can think of since the ubuntu partition seems to freak out.
[20:25] <radovich> hi guys
[20:25] <Flannel> xomp: so, first thing you'll need to do is shrink that, to have unpartitioned space.
[20:26] <Flannel> xomp: use gparted, its on the liveCD
[20:26] <weatherkid> How do you use DOSBox?
[20:26] <ngirard__> roukoun: Hi. i was wrong. Something has changed:  I can't login any more via ssh from my 2nd machine !!
[20:26] <Crayboff> Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong when I try to change my lock dialog?
[20:27] <roukoun> ngirard_ : i didnt really understand what's your problem... can you repeat it?
[20:28] <jamesish> xomp: gparted works well too.
[20:28] <ngirard__> roukoun: that's crazy. Look, 2 or 3 weeks ago I could ssh from another machine in my LAN. Now I can't !
[20:28] <weatherkid> Can someone help me?

[20:42] <Seveas> Bryan[STLH], zip foo.zip file1 file2 file3 --- tar zcf foo.tar.gz file1 file2 file3
[20:42] <Seveas> one of those, depending on what fileformat you want :)
[20:42] <JusticeZero> I, personally, have no idea, that's why I haven't said anything. I'm hardly a guru.

[20:42] <Seveas> Crayboff, changing that dialog will require code editing and recompiling :)
[20:43] <Crayboff> seveas: oh, the sites i visited made it seem much easier than that
[20:43] <legend2440> Crayboff: if you are changing to new wave in gconf-editor but it is changing back then its probably a permissions problem
[20:43] <Seveas> bullgard4, check whether you see the message arrive with netcat or wireshark?
[20:43] <Crayboff> legend2440: how do i fix that?
[20:43] <Seveas> err, netcat? I meant tcpdump... what was I thinking...

[20:45] <jamesish> natenjo: sudo bash
[20:45] <Seveas> !sudo | natenjo_HLBG
[20:45] <rdw200169> MitkOK, there's a twitter plugin for Pidgin..
[20:46] <Seveas> jamesish, never advise 'sudo bash' please. 'sudo -i' is safer
[20:46] <MitkOK> For real ?
[20:46] <natenjo_HLBG> ok thx ill try
[20:46] <MitkOK> Thanks, I'll search for it
[20:46] <pibe86> Seveas: thansk it said nvidia corporation unknown device, is there anything wrong with it?
[20:46] <info__> why it is smart to use more then one partitiion for a server?
[20:47] <Seveas> pibe86, maybe to new to be properly recognized
[20:47] <siavasht> guys , any1 has any opinion about my problem
[20:47] <Seveas> info__, who says it's smart? :)
[20:47] <psp> Why have my ubuntu system created user named clamav?
[20:47] <Seveas> psp, that's for the clamav antivirus scanner
[20:47] <psp> I don't have it installed.
[20:47] <info__> dont know me^^?
[20:47] <psp> Rkhunter does that?
[20:48] <pibe86> Seveas: because i hace sound but i hear it with interruptions
[20:48] <pibe86> Seveas: i have*
[20:48] <Seveas> psp, did you once have it installed?
[20:48] <Seveas> (clamav)
[20:48] <psp> Nah.
[20:48] <Seveas> strange
[20:48] <Seveas> shouldn't be there them
[20:48] <Seveas> s/m$/n/
[20:48] <psp> Is it someting to do with rkhunter?
[20:49] <Seveas> not that I can think of, rkhunter doesn't add users afaik
[20:49] <psp> Where can I see that have I got clamav in some point?
[20:50] <Seveas> psp /var/log/dpkg.log
[20:50] <Seveas> psp, or dpkg -i 'clam*'
[20:50] <Seveas> if that last one says 'un clamav' then clamav was uninstalled but not purged
[20:50] <Seveas> or rc instead of un, keep mixing those up
[20:51] <ubunturefugee> hey, can i convert ubuntu 8.04 to ubuntu ultimate 1.9?
[20:51] <JusticeZer2> testing
[20:51] <Seveas> ubunturefugee, 'ubuntu ultimate' is not supported here
[20:51] <rdw200169> MitkOK, http://arstechnica.com/reviews/apps/pidgin-2-0.ars/4
[20:51] <Seveas> the only 'ultimate' thing about it is its brokenness :)
[20:51] <ubunturefugee> it doesnt work?
[20:52] <^Jimbo^> What is Ubuntu "ultimate"?
[20:52] <Seveas> ^Jimbo^, an unofficial ubuntu derivative that does questionable things
[20:52] <komputes> ha ha Seveas you have to give the guy credit for making a usplash generator
[20:52] <bfig> i installed wine and my wireless network configuration crapped. i've tried looking in the forums but i didn't see anything
[20:52] <^Jimbo^> Thanks Seveas
[20:52] <komputes> but beyond that it a loaded distro with more software and repos
[20:53] <Seveas> komputes, then you should give me credit for writing usplash's theming code ;)
[20:53] <bfig> i have an aetheros WIFI card that was incompatible but i used madwifi. any ideas how i should proceed?
[20:53] <komputes> Seveas: wait, what?
[20:54] <pibe86> hello, i have a laptop compaq presario cq50, my sound works but I  hear is a faint static sound when a sound is meant to be playing.
[20:54] <Seveas> komputes, I wrote the theming support for usplash back in 2006 :)
[20:54] <pibe86> hello, i have a laptop compaq presario cq50, my sound works but I  hear is a faint static sound when a sound is meant to be playing. how can i fix it?*
[20:54] <psp> seveas: I did install clamav after all :I How can I remove user now?
[20:54] <komputes> Seveas: you did? The would you mind responding to my post here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=552264
[20:55] <komputes> *then
[20:55] <Seveas> psp dpkg -P clamav
[20:55] <natenjo_HLBG> where can i find "yast"??
[20:55] <Seveas> komputes, grab the usplash-dev (or whatever it's called nowadays) package and read the docs :)
[20:55] <rdw200169> natenjo_HLBG, there is no yast in Ubuntu!
[20:55] <psp> Seveas: Will it remove the user too?
[20:55] <ubunturefugee> natenjo_HLBG, yast is in suse
[20:55] <jim_p> natenjo_HLBG: there is no yast in ubuntu. yast is a tool from opensuse
[20:55] <jim_p> (not to mention what it really is)
[20:55] <Seveas> komputes, it's not rocketscience but not the easiest. Been on my todo list since 2006 to fix that :)
[20:56] <komputes> Seveas: I am very interested in making custome usplashes, I would greatly appreciate picking your brain for a bit, PM in a bit after i read the manual?
[20:56] <natenjo_HLBG> thx^
[20:56] <Seveas> psp, I'm counting on that
[20:56] <Seveas> komputes, sure
[20:56] <psp> How I can see that it's removed? xd
[20:56] <Seveas> psp, look in /etc/passwd :
[20:56] <Seveas> :)
[20:56] <ubunturefugee> man, i should have stayed on ubuntu, im trying suse and it sucks
[20:57] <Seveas> ubunturefugee, try fedora then (or come back)
[20:57] <o0Chris0o_> what are the window fonts package?
[20:57] <Seveas> o0Chris0o_, msttcorefonts
[20:57] <ubunturefugee> seveas, is it much different from fedora core 4? thats the last fedora i used
[20:57] <o0Chris0o_> ahh that sounds better
[20:57] <psp> I can see line with starting clamav
[20:57] <Seveas> ubunturefugee, a lot. Like Ubuntu, Fedora is changing fast
[20:57] <Seveas> psp, then it wasn't removed :)
[20:58] <yaddle> If I have a computer with no CD/DVD drive or floppy drive and no installed OS, is there any way to hook it up to a network and do a network install?
[20:58] <psp> Dpkg purge says that it's removed
[20:58] <rdw200169> yaddle, with ubuntu,yes
[20:58] <yaddle> rdw200169: How?
[20:58] <IntuitiveNipple> yaddle: Yes, if the machine's BIOS supports PXE boot
[20:59] <Seveas> psp, pastebin the output of: dpkg -l '*clam*' | cat
[20:59] <yaddle> hmmm ok
[20:59] <yaddle> thanks
[20:59] <rdw200169> yaddle: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/LocalNet
[20:59] <jim_p> yaddle: with ANY linux based os, yes
[20:59] <yaddle> rdw200169: Thx
[20:59] <Seveas> jim_p, I also install windows via pxe :)
[20:59] <Seveas> (although that uses Ubuntu, so it's cheating)
[20:59] <zubrienoq> hi all

[21:00] <rdw200169> Seveas, you're using a banned word!
[21:01] <Seveas> databridge_, funny :) But please restrict offtopic talk to #ubuntu-offtopic
[21:01] <Flannel> databridge_: Not here please
[21:01] <psp> seveas: http://pastebin.com/m28b808dc
[21:01] <databridge_> sorry
[21:01] <Seveas> rdw200169, oops, I said cheating :P
[21:01] <jim_p> Seveas: are you that guy that has a repo?
[21:01] <Seveas> jim_p, yes. Though it's mostly disfunctional nowadays
[21:02] <Seveas> psp, dpkg -P clamav-base clamav-freshclam clamtk
[21:02] <jim_p> Seveas: i admire you
[21:02] <Seveas> jim_p, thanks, always nice to be appreciated :)
[21:02]  * o0Chris0o_ runs
[21:02] <Clown> jim_p: how do u go about booting pxe for installing windows?
[21:02] <rdw200169> yaddle, it is also possible to install ubuntu without a monitor too
[21:03] <jim_p> Clown: i dont know. i never did that
[21:03] <rdw200169> yaddle, or a keyboard and mouse
[21:03] <Pirate_Hunter> i've just read the deluge site and it states that deluge can't infite seed :/ (that would explain why i couldn't find that option anywhere), so i am wondering what other gnome torrent clients (excl ktorrent & all other kde clients) are there that i could try and allow me to set certain torrents as infinite seed?
[21:03] <jim_p> Seveas: i may need some info sometime for this ok?
[21:03] <Seveas> Clown, use something like systemimager.org (I wrote my own things for it)
[21:03] <Seveas> jim_p, that link above should help you :)
[21:03] <psp> Seveas: Thank you. Clamav has been banished.
[21:03] <jim_p> what link??
[21:04] <Clown> ops, mixed up
[21:04] <psp> Can't see it on that log anymore.
[21:04] <ubunturefugee> ANAL
[21:04] <jim_p> lmao

[21:04] <Seveas> psp, here's a nice oneliner: dpkg -l | awk '/^rc/{print $2}' | xargs sudo dpkg -P
[21:04] <pingu_> Why aint this in the Ubuntu packages? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenFOAM
[21:04] <Seveas> psp, that removes any remaining config for packages that were removed but not purged
[21:05] <lukus78> hi
[21:05] <Seveas> !search foam
[21:05] <Seveas> !find foam
[21:05] <Funoost> hello - i am currently having a wireless network error on my xubuntu install - iwconfig essid "ESSID" etc - i did that - dhclient wlan0 returns "no dhcpoffers received"
[21:05] <Seveas> haha
[21:06] <_Progress_> hi, i try to install kubuntu-kde4-desktop from launchpad repo but i get: E: Broken packages
[21:06] <Seveas> jim_p, systemimager.org
[21:06] <rdw200169> Funoost: you can try assigning a static IP if the link layer is up
[21:06] <Funoost> "link layer"?
[21:06] <Funoost> and where do i assign a static ip?
[21:06] <Seveas> pingu_, file a bug on launchpad.net requesting it to be packaged :)
[21:06] <psp> Should I be worried: APIC error on CPU0: 40(40)? :o
[21:06] <rdw200169> Funoost: try #ip link
[21:06] <Funoost> was that supposed to do anything?
[21:06] <Seveas> psp, ah, the LHC has found your machine :-)
[21:06] <rdw200169> Funoost:  it lists all your interfaces
[21:06] <edo32mb> anyone know how to get logitech usb mic to work with audacity?  I've tried the various information i've found on google, but I must be doing something wrong - cause nothing seems to be working.
[21:07] <Funoost> it didnt list anything
[21:07] <psp> Lhc?
[21:07] <rdw200169> Funoost: on the link layer, for example, my line on wlan0 says:  wlan0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP>
[21:07] <Seveas> psp, large hadron collider. The thing rumoured to destroy the world :)
[21:07] <Funoost> ok i've got
[21:07] <psp> I was thinking that you ment that. :)
[21:07] <Pirate_Hunter> i've just read the deluge site and it states that deluge can't infite seed :/ (that would explain why i couldn't find that option anywhere), so i am wondering what other gnome torrent clients (excl ktorrent & all other kde clients) are there that i could try and allow me to set certain torrents as infinite seed?
[21:07] <rdw200169> Funoost, does it say they interface is up?
[21:07] <randomlogic78> I'm trying to add my website to my newly installed LAMP server in the /etc/www directory
[21:07] <Funoost> no-carrior,broadcast,multicast,up>
[21:07] <Seveas> Pirate_Hunter, transmission
[21:08] <rdw200169> Funoost: the wireless link isn't up then
[21:08] <psp> 21.10.2008 Could be doomsday. :o
[21:08] <randomlogic78> I copied my website into a directory inside www and put rx permission on the directory, but I get a permission denied error when I try to access the site
[21:08] <psp> But that apic error is harmless?
[21:08] <Pirate_Hunter> Seveas: removed that from my system it lacks in options even if it does the job
[21:08] <Funoost> em then how do i put it up
[21:08] <jim_p> Seveas: nice site, but i dont want to automate an install
[21:08] <rdw200169> Funoost: when you type 'sudo iwconfig' does it show a MAC address next to "Access Point:"?
[21:09] <Pirate_Hunter> how do i make irssi beep when someone replies?
[21:09] <Funoost> yes
[21:09] <Seveas> jim_p, if you want install-windows-via-pxe the only way I know is to use something like that
[21:09] <Seveas> jim_p, otherwise search microsoft.com for help, we're way offtopic here already :)
[21:09] <rdw200169> Funoost: then try: ip link set wlan0 up
[21:10] <txetxu> olaaaa
[21:10] <Seveas> hello txetxu
[21:10] <txetxu> i dont speak english
[21:10] <Seveas> txetxu, what do you speak?
[21:10] <Falcons_roost> I have a web site calling for gecko player plugin after install it still dose not play music i installed timidity and it still dose not work  plz help with this web sies .mid files http://www.crystalinks.com/12pyrthoth.html plz pm me if anyone looks into this for mehttp://www.ubuntu.com/GetUbuntu/downloadhttp://www.ubuntu.com/GetUbuntu/download
[21:10] <rdw200169> Funoost: i like the ip command more than ifconfig, ifconfig is a wrapper on the ip command, and i find the original easier
[21:10] <txetxu> spanish
[21:10] <Funoost> well ok
[21:11] <Seveas> !es txetxu
[21:11] <Seveas> !es | txetxu
[21:11] <txetxu> nadie abla español
[21:11] <Funoost> but i still have the problem lol
[21:11] <rdw200169> Funoost: does 'ip link' show the interface as 'UP' now?
[21:11] <txetxu> gracias ubottu
[21:11] <txetxu> es que es la primera vez que entro aqui
[21:11] <_Progress_> http://code-bg.com/1784

[21:12] <Funoost> ^no change from what it was
[21:12] <rdw200169> Funoost: that no-carrier think basically means that the 'cable is unplugged'
[21:12] <rdw200169> Funoost, there's no link
[21:12] <Seveas> _Progress_, this often indicates that you use unsupported repositories
[21:13] <rdw200169> Funoost: what's the signal strength? (Link Quality under iwconfig)
[21:13] <Funoost> 0
[21:13] <Funoost> oh shit
[21:13] <zigzag2> is it possible for me to make my desktop icons smaller
[21:13] <Funoost> all my stuff was removed
[21:13] <Funoost> one sec
[21:13] <Seveas> zigzag2, rightclick on an icon and select 'stretch icon'
[21:14] <node357> I wish there was a way to change all icons at the same time
[21:14] <zigzag2> can i set the default smaller? to change them all
[21:14] <zigzag2> agh darn
[21:14] <Funoost> Link Quality:0
[21:14] <_Progress_> Seveas: https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-members-kde4/+archive/+index?start=0&batch=75 i try this
[21:14] <Funoost> but under nmap applet - my router is shown
[21:14] <Seveas> zigzag2, not that I know of, maybe #gnome on gimpnet knows?
[21:14] <Funoost> with a connection
[21:14] <rdw200169> Funoost: Did you set up your wireless interface in System -> Administration -> Network?
[21:15] <Funoost> uh no sec
[21:15] <rdw200169> Funoost: it makes setting up /etc/network/interfaces easier
[21:15] <Funoost> lol.... theres no administration nice
[21:15] <rdw200169> Funoost: make sure, for your wireless card, you unclick roaming
[21:16] <rdw200169> Funoost, it's under the System menu
[21:16] <rdw200169> Funoost, not the Applications menu
[21:16] <Funoost> oh
[21:16] <Funoost> ok i switched it back to not roaming
[21:17] <Funoost> and entered all my stuff - auto dhcp etc
[21:17] <rdw200169> Funoost, good deal
[21:17] <rdw200169> from the main menu think of the Network program, make sure the interface is enabled, with a checkmark next to it
[21:18] <zaggy-nl> Hi, how do I create an avi with subs from a dvd?
[21:18] <Funoost> it is
[21:18] <Mion> zaggy-nl: don't make an avi
[21:18] <rdw200169> Funoost: ok, the easiest way to continue, and see what's going on is on the terminal
[21:18] <Mion> zaggy-nl: use matroska as the container instead
[21:18] <rdw200169> Funoost, on the terminal, first type: sudo ifdown wlan0
[21:18] <zaggy-nl> Mion, matroska will do fine too
[21:19] <zaggy-nl> Mion, but what tool should I use? I tried dvd::rip, but it gave an error in the end
[21:19] <Funoost> okay
[21:19] <rdw200169> Funoost, then, type: sudo ifup wlan0
[21:19] <Mion> zaggy-nl: just extract the subs, convert to some non-sucky format (like ssa/ass) and wrap it in matroska
[21:19] <Funoost> i got "wmaster0:  unknown hardware address type 801"
[21:19] <Funoost> but rest of it worked
[21:19] <zaggy-nl> Mion, uhm, I'm new to this
[21:19] <zaggy-nl> any fancy GUI tools?
[21:20] <rdw200169> Funoost, don't worry about that, wmaster0 is the interface for using your wireless card as an access point
[21:20] <Mion> zaggy-nl: I recomend to go and read about it on doom9.org
[21:20] <meoblast001> hi
[21:20] <rdw200169> Funoost, now what does 'iwconfig' say?
[21:20] <meoblast001> im trying to setup a jabber server
[21:20] <rdw200169> Funoost, as far as signal strength and all that
[21:20] <meoblast001> but i cant connect to my server i installed.. can someone help?
[21:20] <Funoost> okay i've already tryed this fyi - it says "no dhcpoffers received"
[21:20] <Funoost> "no working leases in persistent database - sleeping".
[21:20] <Funoost> iwconfig says 0 for everything
[21:21] <rdw200169> Funoost, darn, still nothing
[21:21] <MattJ> Hi meoblast001
[21:21] <Funoost> yeah i sudo mousepad editted network/interfaces
[21:21] <MattJ> meoblast001: Join ##jabber
[21:21] <Funoost> i added the essid and password key
[21:21] <Funoost> i tried adding restricted vs open to that
[21:21] <rdw200169> Funoost, you can try 'iwlist scanning' to see if your wireless card sees the acess piont
[21:22] <Funoost> sure
[21:22] <Funoost> it does indeed see it
[21:22] <Funoost> even has signal level etc
[21:22] <Funoost> "35/65"
[21:22] <sccrcrzy14> ﻿/msg ubottu etiquette
[21:22] <rdw200169> Funoost: so now we're dealing with the stupidity of iwconfigs means of key management
[21:23] <rdw200169> Funoost, This is a pain because it gives you no indication that the key you've inserted didnt' work
[21:23] <couicsilver> you can try sudo dhclient
[21:23] <Funoost> i see =/
[21:23] <couicsilver> a lot easier
[21:23] <rdw200169> Funoost, it ends up working like magic, all of a sudden, when the acess point 'accepts' the key, signal strength shows up
[21:23] <Funoost> except that i get "no dhcpoffers received" couicsilver
[21:24] <rdw200169> Funoost, so now it's a matter of fooling with the /etc/network/interfaces file
[21:24] <Funoost> alright
[21:24] <Funoost> i have tried [key] restricted
[21:24] <Funoost> [key] open
[21:24] <rdw200169> Funoost: what format is your key in?
[21:24] <Funoost> both of those did not do anything
[21:24] <Funoost> WEP 64-bit hex
[21:24] <Funoost> 10 letters
[21:24] <rdw200169> Funoost, bleh to all that window applicaition garbage
[21:25] <Funoost> lol
[21:25] <HexKey> Hyey guy si need some help, i need to resize my windows partition on my dual boot ubuntu/XP laptop how do i do it?
[21:25] <rdw200169> Funoost, there should be 3 lines in your /etc/network/interfaces file refferring to your wireless card
[21:25] <rdw200169> Funoost, iface wlan0 inet dhcp
[21:25] <Funoost> which there aren'
[21:25] <Funoost> i've got that one^
[21:25] <Funoost> i've got auto wlan0
[21:25] <HexKey> i have an ubuntu CD
[21:25] <rdw200169> Funoost: wireless-key 123848bb8d
[21:25] <Funoost> and i have wireless-key ^
[21:25] <chazco> Hi... whats the best way to watch DVDs on a Ubuntu based netbook without a DVD drive (but with >200GB of free space)? Create an iso? Rip the dvd somehow?
[21:25] <Funoost> as well as wireless-essid essid
[21:25] <rdw200169> Funoost: and wireless-essid XXXXXX
[21:26] <Funoost> yep
[21:26] <Funoost> i have that
[21:26] <Gargantua> Hi.
[21:26] <Funoost> no quotes'
[21:26] <rdw200169> Funoost; well snot, that's what has always worked for me on the key madness
[21:26] <jamesish> HexKey: try using gparted, it's a live cd that is good about resizing NFS. But TAKE A BACKUP FIRST.
[21:26] <Gargantua> Is there a way to display the normal linux loadup text instead of the Ubuntu logo on startup?
[21:26] <Gargantua> If that makes any sense.
[21:26] <chazco> I think you remove splash from the boot options
[21:26] <sccrcrzy14> hey I have a problem getting vista to show up on grubs. how do i fix that?
[21:26] <HexKey> how can i get my laptop to boot fromt he lice CD?
[21:26] <jamesish> Gargantua: yes. you edit grub/menu.lst to remove the quiet and the splash ooptions.
[21:27] <Gargantua> Thanks a lot JackWinter
[21:27] <Gargantua> jamesish*
[21:27] <rdw200169> Funoost: ok, when you type 'sudo iwconfig' (the sudo is important in this case) does it show your key?
[21:27] <Gargantua> Too many damn peeps in this channel
[21:27] <JackWinter> hehe you're welcome :)
[21:27] <Funoost> yes
[21:27] <rdw200169> Funoost, and still no link quality?
[21:27] <Funoost> yes
[21:27] <ubuntu-user_100> Hi. I have a problem getting a Dell Lat. C600 to install Ubuntu. Different errors. Is it rare or very normal to have errors for that modell?
[21:28] <sccrcrzy14> anyone know how to help me with my dual boot problem?
[21:28] <icedtea> sccrcrzy14: sure
[21:28] <rdw200169> Funoost: and it sees your acess point?
[21:28] <icedtea> sccrcrzy14: wait one sec phone call
[21:28] <jamesish> sccrcrzy: what was your issue?
[21:28] <Funoost> yep
[21:29] <sccrcrzy14> okay thanks icedtea. When I start my computer I dont see the grubs menu
[21:29] <sccrcrzy14> I know I can press escape to see it
[21:29] <jimmygoon> Does someone have a burning desire to help me get gnome-terminal to allow vim to change all of the "colors"
[21:29] <sccrcrzy14> but when I do I do not see vista as an option
[21:29] <rdw200169> Funoost: the only thing i can think is that the wireless key is wrong; are you sure it's a working key?
[21:29] <blobbo> hello people
[21:29] <Funoost> 100% sure its a working key
[21:29] <Seveas> sccrcrzy14, did you overwrite it when installing ubuntu?
[21:29] <jamesish> sccrcrzy: It's a simple fix, but it takes some knowledge.
[21:29] <ubuntu-user_100> (sccrcrzy14: Take away the "hiddenmenu" item from grubs list.)
[21:29] <rdw200169> Funoost: thinking...
[21:29] <Funoost> i have my router page open
[21:30] <Funoost> and thats what it shows
[21:30] <HexKey> How do i get my computer to boot from my CD drive, it just loads GRUB atm.
[21:30] <jhr-online> i just found "landscape"... is this a software to buy or is it a service from canonical where I can register my ubuntu machines to control them via canonicals web interface?
[21:30] <Funoost> i had memorized it earlier
[21:30] <Funoost> and i've used it on 3 laptops
[21:30] <rdw200169> Funoost: ok, good enough for me!
[21:30] <Funoost> XD
[21:30] <sccrcrzy14> Im pretty sure how do i check it? and I cant edit my menu.lst file
[21:30] <Kai> Heyy :) anyone have a quick minute?
[21:30] <rdw200169> Funoost, what model wireless card are you using?
[21:30] <couicsilver> sudo nano menu.lst
[21:30] <Kai> I have downloaded the Realplayer .bin,
[21:30] <Kai> I just need to know how to install
[21:30] <abdoo> hey ppl
[21:30] <Seveas> jhr-online, http://www.canonical.com/projects/landscape
[21:31] <abdoo> kai
[21:31] <jhr-online> Seveas: yeah... i'm not a native speaker... i don't get it :-/
[21:31] <blobbo> hey abdoo
[21:31] <abdoo> u can use dpkg -i
[21:31] <Kai> abdoo ?
[21:31] <abdoo> hey man
[21:31] <PPKuma> hi, i installed  linux uvc for webcam suport, i modprobed it... now how can i configure it?
[21:31] <abdoo>  u can use dpkg -i  (files name)
[21:31] <sadfwsdafsdafwea> !wireless
[21:32] <ngirard__> abdoo: it's not a .deb, it's a .bin ...
[21:32] <abdoo> ohh
[21:32] <abdoo> i c
[21:32] <rdw200169> Funoost, maybe there's some strange problem with your wireless card, i don't know
[21:32] <Funoost> why does it work on my windows xp installation then?
[21:32] <abdoo> k , use ./*files name*
[21:33] <rdw200169> Funoost, it's more of a driver thing, most wireless manufacturers don't help the linux community
[21:33] <sccrcrzy14> jamesish you said you know how to fix my problem?
[21:33] <rdw200169> Funoost, so developers have to figure it out as they go along
[21:33] <pupp> hello. i've spend 3 hours trying to install a plustek backend for Sane. would anyone be able to help me out?
[21:33] <Kai> Thanks Abdoo, but I received an error. (PM'ed)
[21:33] <ngirard__> Kai: you have to set the 'executable' permission to the .bin file
[21:33] <HexKey> How do i boot from my ubuntu live CD, grub just laods its screen and i cant see an option to boot from CD
[21:33] <rdw200169> Funoost, the absolute newest hardware is the most difficult to get working, because all the developers are still working the bugs out of their reverse engineering code
[21:34] <Funoost> okay well its a netgear wg111 something
[21:34] <ubuntu-user_100> (sccrcrzy14: I think you NEED to get access to the menu.lst. Might be possible through the ESC-funktion you mentioned, and then press "e" to edit and get into the grub-console via another "button".)
[21:34] <rdw200169> Funoost: lets see what google can do for me...
[21:34] <Funoost> okay well its a netgear wg111v2
[21:34] <ngirard__> Kai: chmod +x ./the_bin_file
[21:34] <ngirard__> Kai: then:  ./the_bin_file
[21:34] <abdoo> u talks rite
[21:35] <sccrcrzy14> I think that too but I can't figure out how to do that
[21:35] <guntbert> HexKey: does your PC boot from CD at all?
[21:35] <ngirard__> abdoo: i'm a froggie man ;)
[21:35] <rdw200169> Funoost: it's a usb dongle?
[21:35] <info__> should opt and var be logic partition?
[21:35] <pupp> i got by wg511v2 working..don't know about the wg111v2
[21:35] <Funoost> yes it is
[21:36] <HexKey> i have the grub menu up but there is no boot from CD option guntbert
[21:36] <Funoost> and i am on xubuntu if i have not previously mentioned it
[21:36] <|thunder> we got a google android deb yet ?
[21:36] <rdw200169> Funoost, the window manager doesn't matter in this case
[21:36] <rdw200169> Funoost, this is all kernel and lower level related
[21:37] <pupp> can anyone help me install a sane backend?its driving me nuts =)
[21:37] <Funoost> kk :)
[21:37] <guntbert> HexKey: when you see the grub-menu from your harddisk, its too late for the CD, have a look at the system-bios, boot-sequence
[21:37] <Funoost> i'm relatively a newbie at linux
[21:37] <Funoost> 3 weeks ...
[21:37] <abdoo> how can u tlk to me lik " Abdoo: .."
[21:37] <HexKey> i prss F12 at start upto show the boot menu, but it only displays grub
[21:38] <jrib> !tab | abdoo
[21:38] <rdw200169> Funoost: no big deal
[21:38] <PPKuma> hi, i installed  linux uvc for webcam suport, i modprobed it... but nothing happens, how can i use it?
[21:38] <Funoost> do i need to get ndiswrapper?
[21:38] <rdw200169> Funoost: check this out: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/WG111T
[21:38] <abdoo> ??
[21:38] <guntbert> HexKey: can you boot from another CD?
[21:38] <jhr-online> Seveas: don't wanna answer me? :(
[21:38] <jrib> abdoo: type the beginning of someone's name, like "jri", and then press TAB
[21:39] <ubuntu-user_100> ubuntu-user_100: testing...
[21:39] <Seveas> jhr-online, I don't know more than what's on that page :)
[21:39] <Flare183> Funoost: Depends on !tab
[21:39] <Flare183> oops
[21:39] <Flare183> !tab
[21:39] <HexKey> i ahve booted fromt he cd before when i was originally running windwos in order to set up a dual boot guntbert
[21:39] <jhr-online> Seveas: well, it'd bw great if you could explain it in one sentence
[21:39] <Flare183> Funoost: Depends on what you are trying to use ndiswrapper for.
[21:39] <jamesish> We have any networking geeks in the room? One of our fellow ubuntu users has lost his loopback device. I mean, *lost*
[21:39] <Flare183> !ask | Funoost
[21:39] <abdoo> jrib: get it dude
[21:40] <Seveas> jamesish, ifconfig lo up
[21:40] <HexKey> ok its done it
[21:40] <_M_u_V_aT_o_R_> .
[21:40] <jamesish> Seveas: no, it's not listed in /dev.
[21:40] <HexKey> ty for the help anyway guntbert <3
[21:40] <jhr-online> Seveas: just: is it software to buy? oder is it a canonical service where you register your machines?
[21:40] <Seveas> jamesish, that's normal
[21:40] <guntbert> HexKey: there could be another reason: is this a newly burnt CD?
[21:40] <Seveas> jhr-online, I *think* it's the latter
[21:40] <jamesish> Seveas: okay.
[21:40] <jhr-online> cause i don't see a landscape-server package
[21:40] <Funoost> what? i've been asking 1 line questions -.-
[21:40] <pupp> Funoost... yes. that how i got mine to work. YOu need to unpack the driver file on your desktop..it cant be in any folder. but ndswrapper should do it for you.
[21:40] <HexKey> yeah it was newly burnt
[21:40] <jhr-online> Seveas: okay... then i guess i got it right... thx
[21:41] <rdw200169> thanks pupp!
[21:41] <guntbert> !who | HexKey
[21:41] <Funoost> pupp i'm not connected to the internet
[21:41] <Funoost> how can i get ndiswrapper -.-
[21:41] <Flare183> !ndiswrapper | Funoost
[21:41] <pupp> you can get ndswrapper in the package manager
[21:41] <Seveas> Funoost, it's on the cd :)
[21:41] <guntbert> HexKey: are you sure the image was ok? did you check?
[21:42] <jerbear> can anyone point me to a tutorial or example on how to package a deb from a python package?
[21:42] <Funoost> for netgear?
[21:42] <HexKey> i didnt chekc the image, but is working from it now
[21:42] <jrib> jerbear: example is just find a package and 'apt-get source' it
[21:42] <jrib> !packaging > jerbear
[21:42] <guntbert> HexKey: good for you :), but next time you better check anyway
[21:42] <guntbert> !md5
[21:43] <Funoost> Seveas on what cd?
[21:43] <HexKey> guntbert, ty for the advice
[21:43] <rdw200169> Funoost: the install cd
[21:43] <Seveas> Funoost, the cd you installed ubuntu with
[21:43] <guntbert> HexKey: yw
[21:43] <Funoost> i used wubi-installer.
[21:43] <Flare183> ????
[21:43] <rdw200169> Funoost: just type 'sudo apt-get install ndisgtk'
[21:43] <Seveas> Funoost, ah...
[21:43] <psor> ﻿who know possible make plugin for anyone players for vote films from IMDB ???
[21:43] <Flare183> Funoost: Why did you use the windows installer?
[21:43] <Seveas> rdw200169, without internet? :)
[21:43] <jerbear> jrib: i would also like to know the best ways to use the packaging helper scripts
[21:43]  * Flare183 hates Windows and everything about it
[21:44] <jamesish> Seveas: the loopback dev isn't showing up for him in ifconfig, after that command. Someone had borked a lot of his stuff, including screwing up his /etc/network/interfaces. Fortunately, there was  abackup of that file. Any further ideas?
[21:44] <rdw200169> Funoost, it will still recognize the original install cd
[21:44] <jrib> jerbear: that's in the documentation I linked you to.  Poke me if you can't find it
[21:44] <ThexLeopard> is there any way of accessing the locked folders on the gui, im trying to share a folder but samba is telling me it cant share the file as i cant access the usershare folder as im not the owner
[21:44] <rdw200169> Funoost, the fact that it's wubi, doesn't mean it's any less linux
[21:44] <Funoost> you realize you have to be connected to the internet to use that command right rdw200169?
[21:44] <pupp> is there anyone who can help me with a backend for Sane? is very differcult.
[21:44] <jerbear> jrib: ok, thanks. i'll look it over. you ok with some questions if i can't figure it out?
[21:44] <rdw200169> Funoost: no, you don't, use apt-cdrom add
[21:44] <dt> hi
[21:44] <n1zjd> hey im trying to figure out if my gps is working with my laptop...how can I check?
[21:44] <Seveas> jamesish, /etc/network/interfaces should contain this (and no more, the rest should be done by network-manager)
[21:44] <Seveas> iface lo inet loopback
[21:44] <Seveas> auto lo
[21:44] <dt> where could i get help when i  always get paypal phishing mails?
[21:45] <hardcore> does anyone know whats the best icon dock?
[21:45] <jrib> jerbear: you should ask #ubuntu-motu about packaging questions, they know more than me about it :)
[21:45] <Funoost> and Flare183 for ease because it was my first installation
[21:45] <rdw200169> Funoost: it adds the install cd to the package archives apt is tracking
[21:45] <jerbear> jrib: will do
[21:45] <Seveas> dt, definitely not here :)
[21:45] <Funoost> rdw200169 i dont have the install cd and i dont have internet connection on the computer with ubuntu on it
[21:45] <rdw200169> Funoost: ohh, you didn't use Wubi on the install cd...
[21:45] <killux> hey, is there any way to transform a standard ubuntu installation into a VM image?
[21:46] <JusticeZer2> testing..
[21:46] <Funoost> nope
[21:46] <rdw200169> Funoost: do you have an ethernet port?
[21:46] <Funoost> i still have the iso probably
[21:46] <Flare183> Funoost: Its recommended that you reboot your computer with the cd in the drive and try ubuntu that way
[21:46] <hardcore> does anyone know whats the best icon dock?
[21:46] <Funoost> router is downstairs :P
[21:46] <Funoost> No CD.
[21:46] <rdw200169> Funoost, but what computer are you surfing on right now...

[21:47] <danielm_mc> soundblaster maybe?  i know it works, i swapped it with my other box
[21:47] <danielm_mc> apt-get driver update ?
[21:47] <danielm_mc> :-P
[21:47] <pupp> has anyone ever installed scanner drivers? please help
[21:47] <ThexLeopard> drivers are generally terrible things
[21:47] <danielm_mc> yeah unless it's a fresh install
[21:48] <ThexLeopard> exactly
[21:48] <ThexLeopard> if i were you
[21:48] <danielm_mc> i can't reinstall
[21:48] <pupp> i have tried for the past 4 hours to get the damn scanner working
[21:48] <ThexLeopard> i dunno
[21:48] <ThexLeopard> ive never tried to install the sound card drivers
[21:48] <ThexLeopard> on mine
[21:48] <ThexLeopard> rofl
[21:49] <ThexLeopard> they work, thats good enough for me, i had terrible trouble with my graphics card though
[21:49] <danielm_mc> meh, gpus are ez
[21:49] <brandan_> What is the code for Terminal to open the Compiz settings menu ?
[21:49] <guntbert> !ot | ThexLeopard
[21:49] <brandan_> I am trying to setup the desktop cube
[21:49] <IntuitiveNipple> pupp: tell us the make and model, so we can check
[21:50] <ThexLeopard> guntbert
[21:50] <cafenet9> hai
[21:50] <IntuitiveNipple> brandan_: ccsm
[21:50] <hardcore> does anyone know whats the best icon dock?
[21:50] <brandan_> thank you
[21:50] <guntbert> ThexLeopard: do you have a question?
[21:51] <ThexLeopard> i do indeed rofl
[21:51] <Floid> Question:  In 8.10a, what do you actually get if you selected "Guided - Use entire disk" partitioning in the graphical installer?
[21:51] <ThexLeopard> ive been trying to access folders on the gui, specifically ones that deal with file sharing on a local area network, nautilus is telling me it cant share folders because i dont have owner permissions, i was wondering if theres any way of being root on the gui
[21:51] <brandan_> I enabled Desktop Cube but it don't seem to be working
[21:52] <Dragon> Hello my sound isn't working and i've followed a few guides to get it working, i recently reinstalled all sound drivers from kernal to try to make it work
[21:52] <Floid> Thex: 8.04 or earlier?
[21:52] <ThexLeopard> how do i check again
[21:52] <Odd-rationale> Floid: one partiton for / , and extended partiton with 2* ram for swap.
[21:52] <panjul> malang
[21:52] <Floid> System -> About Ubuntu.
[21:53] <ThexLeopard> oh yeah, i was gonna use terminal rofl
[21:53] <ThexLeopard> 8.04
[21:53] <Floid> Odd: Thanks.  Still GRUB?  No /boot?
[21:53] <guntbert> ThexLeopard: you don't want to be "root", what you probably need is sudo  on the terminal
[21:53] <hardcore> i tried gOS, it sucks because it don't have compiz
[21:53] <panjul> hi
[21:53] <Kai> (: guntbert, make me a sandwich!
[21:53] <ThexLeopard> i dont know how to set up file sharing on terminal
[21:53] <Floid> Thex: 8.04 should let you export directories you actually own, I think, in your home directory and below.
[21:53] <guntbert> ThexLeopard: or gksu in the GUI
[21:54] <Odd-rationale> Floid: yes grub, no /boot
[21:54] <guntbert> Kai: ??
[21:54] <Kai> (: sudo make me a sandwich
[21:54] <Kai> :P
[21:54] <Floid> Odd: Oh, and it doesn't mention FS, still ext3?
[21:54] <hardcore> does anyone know whats the best icon dock?
[21:54] <Kai> A web comic I read, I found it amusing
[21:54] <Odd-rationale> Floid: yes ext3.
[21:54] <Floid> Cheers, thanks.
[21:55] <ThexLeopard> whats gksu?
[21:55] <gregor> Kai: xkcd.
[21:55] <Kai> (: mhm
[21:55] <Kai> 149 if im not mistaken?
[21:55] <rdw200169> gksu is the gnome popup for the su command
[21:55] <Floid> Thex:  Can you successfully share stuff in your home directory using the GUI?
[21:55] <mreyfout> Hi, I want to add a color scheme to VIM 7.1 but every blog or website I visited seems to be giving me mixed messages, none of which works atleast not with 7.1
[21:55] <rdw200169> gksudo is for sudo
[21:55] <gregor> Kai: Yes, http://xkcd.com/149/
[21:55] <debCarlos> !gnome-panel-reset
[21:55] <debCarlos> !reset
[21:56] <jrib> mreyfout: just add it to ~/.vim/colors/
[21:56] <debCarlos> Any way to reset gnome panel configuration ?
[21:56] <ThexLeopard> O.o
[21:56] <rdw200169> you can use it with launchers and the run command, for ex: Alt+F2: gksudo firestarter
[21:56] <Kai> ^^ great comic
[21:56] <Dragon> !sound
[21:56] <ThexLeopard> nevermind
[21:56] <ThexLeopard> its working now
[21:56] <ThexLeopard> -.-
[21:56] <n1zjd> whats the easiest way to check and see if a usb device is recognized?
[21:56] <Floid> Thex:  It works *in your home folder* because you own that, right? :)
[21:56] <hardcore> does anyone know whats the best icon dock?
[21:56] <debCarlos> !gnome-panel
[21:56] <sauvin> n1zjd: lsusb
[21:56] <ThexLeopard> i tried earlier on
[21:56] <rdw200169> hardcore: cairo-dock
[21:56] <ThexLeopard> and nautilus wasnt having any of it
[21:57] <mreyfout> I did. but the command is not compatible wit 7.1 use : colors_name, and colorschme and still doesn't work.
[21:57] <lastman> ThexLeopard, if you want to be root, than disable that sudo thing, sudo passwd root and create a new starter with the command gksu gnome-terminal to get a real root terminal
[21:57] <demism> Is there any lightweight software that lets me use webcam and mic?
[21:57] <ThexLeopard> it kept telling me i didnt have permission to go into the usershare folder in samba to set it up
[21:57] <Zaiden> Is there a program like objectdock for Ubuntu?
[21:57] <Kai> but seriously, can someone make me a sandwich? i'm hungry :(
[21:57] <hardcore> thanks i'll check it out
[21:57] <guntbert> ThexLeopard: ok now? fine :)
[21:57] <jrib> mreyfout: :he colorscheme
[21:57] <sTratovariuZ> can someone open and watch this http://www.megavideo.com/?v=YENW83QR and tell me if he sees the ratio shortened horizontally?
[21:57] <ThexLeopard> yeah it is now
[21:57] <n1zjd> now if i only knew which one it is...heh
[21:57] <Flannel> Kai: Try #ubuntu-offtopic for chatting, this channel is for support only.
[21:57] <n1zjd> or isnt
[21:57] <demism> any lightweight skype like application?
[21:57] <Floid> Thex:  Having a GUI for it at all is fairly new, so... I dunno, I hope 8.10 is more predictable in that regard. :)
[21:58] <rdw200169> hardcore, i've been using it for a long time, and it never crashes, so could finally give up my application bar
[21:58] <killux> hey does anyone know where i can download ubuntu as a vmware image?
[21:58] <jrib> !who | mreyfout
[21:58] <hardcore> where can i find cairo dock?
[21:58] <jrib> mreyfout: you spelled "colorscheme" incorrectly
[21:58] <Kai> Sorry Flannel.
[21:58] <DasEi> ﻿debCarlos: therte is a cmd for that, i stored it on another machine which i can access in 'bout 1 hour...sry
[21:58] <debCarlos> Any way to reset gnome panel configuration ?

[21:59] <mreyfout> jrib: was a typeO. ment to say colorscheme
[21:59] <jrib> mreyfout: yeah.  that works
[21:59] <Floid> hardcore:  Look at "Etoile" and "Avant".
[21:59] <hardcore> thank you
[21:59] <hardcore> whats etoile and avant?
[21:59] <^Jimbo^> http://isv-image.ubuntu.com/vmware/
[22:00] <Floid> Two Mac-desktop-cloning projects, although I think that Wiki link might be more useful.
[22:00] <killux> when downloading a vmware image should it be server or desktop?
[22:00] <DasEi> killux:depends on propose...
[22:00] <sTratovariuZ> can someone open and watch this http://www.megavideo.com/?v=YENW83QR and tell me if he sees the ratio shortened horizontally?
[22:01] <debCarlos> jrib: Oh... it didn't what i... you see, i erased the 'wine' entry in the menu, is there any way to recover it ?
[22:01] <killux> DasEi: ok, well i just want a regular desktop so i guess the desktop edition. i just saw sites that only had server edition
[22:01] <mreyfout> jrib: still getting the same error, E319, command is not available in this version.. Could I be missing a plugin or something?
[22:01] <Floid> hardcore:  https://launchpad.net/awn is the alternative if Cairo-Dock sucks for some reason, I guess.
[22:01] <hardcore> it says only for hardy and gutsy. what happens when i upgrade to 8.10?
[22:01] <dr3mro> how to get menu drop shadow like xp in ubuntu ???
[22:02] <jrib> mreyfout: oh.  Did you ever install vim instead of the default vim-tiny?
[22:02] <wiehan> does anyone suffer from the extremly irritating BUG (more a gnome issue though), that applet icons shifts so much during a change in resolution, especially when a game changes the resolution... it is AWEFUL
[22:02] <guntbert> killux: so you want a ready-made ubuntu?
[22:02] <killux> guntbert: yeah
[22:02] <DasEi> killux:yes then, server is for large amount of ram and starts more services n daemona, so less good for vm
[22:02] <jrib> debCarlos: I don't know.  Try 'winecfg' maybe?  You could always recreate it yourself by right clicking on the ubuntu icon and clicking edit
[22:03] <mreyfout> jrib: did the apt-get update and upgrade and assumed it would have gotten the vim package..
[22:03] <guyonasm> how do i get the x-chat irc client to show users on the main display by default?
[22:03] <jrib> mreyfout: nope, only vim-tiny is installed by default.  Install the "vim" package
[22:03] <wiehan> I prefer nano over vim
[22:03] <DasEi> ﻿sTratovariuZ: dissplays as usual, I mostly use the ff addon videodownloadhelper to store it first and watch it comfortably with vlc
[22:03] <guntbert> killux: ok, I wasn't sure I understood you right, but you can run any guest-system within vmware (nearly)
[22:04] <killux> guntbert: yeah
[22:04] <jrib> wiehan: you're entitled to have bad preferences I suppose :)
[22:04] <amirman> where is syslinux located in ubuntu?
[22:04] <demism> Are there any good skype alternatives for linux/windows?
[22:04] <sTratovariuZ> DasEi: gotcha
[22:04] <sTratovariuZ> i thought it was me
[22:04] <sTratovariuZ> :D
[22:04] <guntbert> killux: whats your problem then?
[22:04] <debCarlos> jrib: yeah, winecfg doesn't do it... well, thanks, i'll do it with right click =)
[22:04] <du93maispascaill> server irc.fantasya.org
[22:04] <killux> guntbert: i was just asking where i could download a premade one
[22:05] <sTratovariuZ> how long time does it usually take to download a movie? ivegot high speed connection
[22:05] <^Jimbo^> demism: You can run Skype in Linux
[22:05] <pan__> hibernate problem pat entry 2 is already configured?
[22:05] <wiehan> jrib well, for small jobs like editing xorg.conf vim is awefull, it took me half an hour once to figure out how to save and exit the bloody file. nano rocks for doing things like that
[22:05] <jrib> debCarlos: #winehq might know how they get created
[22:05] <jamesish> Seveas: still having the loopback issue over here. WE've verified the contents of /etc/network/interfaces and no joy. ifconfig is only showing eth0, and it doesn't show any address information for eth0. But he still has connectivity.
[22:05] <demism> ^Jimbo^: skype is huge. was looking for something more lightweight.
[22:05] <guntbert> killux: Oh my, I seem to be a bit slow tonight :), sorry, got no answer for that one :(
[22:05] <jrib> wiehan: nah, it just has a steep learning curve.  But it's awesome at editing text once you get past it
[22:05] <debCarlos> jrib: oh, yeah, didn't thought about it ^^
[22:06] <^Jimbo^> dennda: So you want a basic light weight SIP client... or do you mean you are looking for a service provider?
[22:06] <amirman> pan__: it's almost impossible to figure that one out. i have the same problem as well as many laptops i've installed ubuntu on, my only guess is that the swap partition should be bigger than the amount of ram you have
[22:06] <Floid> killux:  http://vmplanet.net/ seems to have some.
[22:06] <olskolirc> what do we use on linux that is like photoshop or paintshop pro for windows please?
[22:06] <pan__> i c
[22:06] <dennda> ^Jimbo^: HILIGHT FAIL
[22:06] <amirman> where can i find /syslinux on my filesystem? what command cna i use to find it?/
[22:06] <wiehan> jrib why do I need to learn a new language if I just wanna edit 2 lines in a file such as rc.local or xorg.conf????
[22:06] <dennda> :-)
[22:06] <Odd-rationale> !info gimp | olskolirc
[22:06] <Floid> olskolirc:  GIMP is the big one.
[22:06] <DasEi> ﻿ sTratovariuZ:(!who)  depends on the videoserver, watch it in ff, with more than approx 50kbs  you can startb watching after first 5 mb are down, varies from server to server
[22:06] <pan__> thx amirman
[22:06] <Flannel> pan__, amirman: yes.  To hibernate your swap has to be bigger than your RAM
[22:06] <demism> ^Jimbo^: Hmm... a client would be nice. even if it does use the skype network
[22:06] <amirman> demism: ubuntu comes with ekiga something preinstalled
[22:06] <pan__> it is bigger than my RAM
[22:07] <olskolirc> thanks
[22:07] <ngirard__> Kai: I think the "Comprehensive Multimedia & Video Howto" ( http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=766683 ) might be usefull, too. Seeya
[22:07] <jrib> wiehan: trust me, run vimtutor and force yourself to learn for a week.  You will have an epiphany
[22:07] <pan__> my swap is 2gigs my ram is a gig
[22:07] <Floid> olskolirc:  Also look at Inkscape and stuff for vector/drawing.
[22:07] <ActionParsnip> yo yo yo
[22:07] <^Jimbo^> dennda: Ekiga Softphone works well for me
[22:07] <amirman> pan__: then it's some unrelated bug, i have the same problem, no idea how to fix it and i've scoured the webs to no avail as well
[22:07] <wiehan> jrib I truly believe you, but I hardly ever need to do exstensive text editing in console mode...
[22:08] <dennda> ^Jimbo^: You are still hilighting the wrong person...
[22:08] <demism> I can use skype but i have a friend with a slow connection half-way across the world. Wanted them to install something small rather than having to download huge old skype
[22:08] <jrib> wiehan: you have gvim for a gui
[22:08] <pan__> darn
[22:08] <^Jimbo^> dennda: Sorry
[22:08] <amirman> anyone have any idea where in my filesystem /syslinux is? google didn't help and i dont know the command to find stuff
[22:08] <ActionParsnip> demism: I dont know any alternative skype clients
[22:08] <Floid> olskolirc:  And http://www.xaraxtreme.org/ is new and interesting, haven't tried it yet.
[22:08] <wiehan> jrib I know, but I am referring to console mode (should have stated that earlier)
[22:08] <ActionParsnip> demism: he could download it while he sleeps
[22:08] <Bad_Magic[GoD]> Anyone have any idea why I can't run snes9x in fullscreen mode on my ps3 unless I use a 'fullscreen' ps3-video-mode (and thus have the associated overscan issues)? I get the following error: XF86DGANoDirectVideoMode
[22:09] <ActionParsnip> Bad_Magic[GoD]: have you tried zsnes?
[22:09] <wiehan> amirman have you tried "Ctrl + F"
[22:09] <hakerpawel> hello, i am newbie in Linux, somebody have tutorials or instructions?
[22:09] <Eoraptor_> amirman, have you tried the search function of nautilus?
[22:09] <debCarlos> amirman: I think you can find it by doing find / -name syslinux  :P
[22:09] <demism> ActionParsnip: true, any messenger client for linux that uses yahoo and allows mic/webcam?
[22:09] <mreyfout> jrib: thanks, the error msg is no longer ther..  know any websites where I can get a great set out themes - I mainly need some schemes for programing in python, c++, and makefiles
[22:09] <wiehan> hakerpawel use google, or ask specific questions in here
[22:09]  * demism thanks you guys, good looking out.
[22:09] <ActionParsnip> demism: i dont use yahoo, pidgin is a decent client, amsn supports webcam i think
[22:10] <jrib> mreyfout: vim.org   I really like inkpot
[22:10] <ActionParsnip> wiehan: other search engines aer good too :)
[22:10] <amirman> Eoraptor_: yeah, it just hangs and hangs, but i know i have it installed somehwere
[22:10] <jamesish> Any networking geeks around? A pal ain't go a loopback device. ifconfig lo shows the device as being present and configured, ifconfig doesn't. And running ifconfig knocks out network connectivity for a few seconds.
[22:10] <wiehan> ActionParsnip Google is the best, google own you and me and did our girlfriends
[22:10] <wam> Hi, could someone please add xmms again? audacious isn't good enough and xmms2 is crap. So, anyone?
[22:10] <ActionParsnip> wiehan: i use ask.com too
[22:10] <jrib> !xmms | wam
[22:11] <amirman> debCarlos: with sudo?
[22:11] <wam> jrib: so, but it works?!
[22:11] <amirman> debCarlos: i'm getting permission denied to a lot of folders
[22:11] <ActionParsnip> jamesish: does he have auto lo then iface lo inet loopback
[22:11] <debCarlos> amirman: oh
[22:11] <debCarlos> amirman: You can do it with sudo :)
[22:11] <jrib> wam: so you need to comment on relevant bugs. If you want to maintain it you can probably get it back in
[22:11] <debCarlos> amirman: It's not exactly necessary but...
[22:11] <wiehan> amirmand if you really know what you are doing then type sudo nautilus
[22:12] <amirman> debCarlos: it's running really slowly, i hope it's not killing the directory
[22:12] <Eoraptor_> sudo skype
[22:12] <ronnald> how do i resize a partition in ubuntu?
[22:12] <guntbert> !gksu wiehan amirman
[22:12] <debCarlos> amirman: no, it's just looking over all your system, and that takes a long time, dont worry :)
[22:12] <DasEi> ﻿amirman:see man chown  and  man chmod
[22:13] <rdw200169> gpartee
[22:13] <rdw200169> *gparted, ronnald
[22:13] <habit> How can I share my files and folders using NFS, but with GUI?
[22:13] <r-p> !wireless
[22:13] <ActionParsnip> Eoraptor_: i wouldnt advise that for 2 reasons. 1. gui apps use gksu, 2. running web apps as root is asking for problems
[22:13] <guntbert> !gksu | wiehan amirman
[22:13] <Floid> wam:  Have you tried to get used to Rhythmbox?  It's not that bad if you just use the docked controls.
[22:13] <Zaiden> Is there a general chat channel?
[22:13] <amirman> guntbert:: that really doesn't apply to me
[22:13] <wam> Floid: whargh ;)
[22:13] <ActionParsnip> !nfs | habit
[22:13] <wam> Floid: too much magic
[22:13] <amirman> DasEi: i don't need to chown anything
[22:14] <ActionParsnip> !ot | Zaiden
[22:14] <habit> ActionParsnip, thanks a lot!
[22:14] <Zaiden> Thank you
[22:14] <Floid> wam:  Not really, it just scans directories on startup.
[22:14] <ActionParsnip> habit: dont be afraid to edit config files
[22:14] <ActionParsnip> habit: often they are so simple its ridiculous
[22:14] <wam> Floid: this IS already too much magic. I think I'll get to some commandline interface.
[22:14] <Floid> Well, there are plenty of options there. :)
[22:14] <guntbert> amirman: wiehan told you  to use "sudo nautilus" but thats a bad idea
[22:15] <Floid> Take a look at whatever JWZ was using for his jukebox a few years ago.
[22:15] <ronnald> rdw200169, I've installed it but i can't resize my boot partition, why?
[22:15] <amirman> guntbert: yeah, i usually don't use nautilus to do root level stuff
[22:15] <whta> i am totally unable to unmount an iso file. it tells me the device is busy when it is not being used by anything. i'm typing 'sudo umount /home/ssb/myst/'
[22:15] <jerbear> sheesh, i think i'm going to stick with setuptools for distribution
[22:15] <Flannel> it'd be `gksu nautilus` not `sudo nautilus`, even if we were resigning ourselves to using a root nautilus window
[22:15] <ActionParsnip> wiehan: you should use gksu for gui apps as it sets up the environment correctly, lso sudo <app> uses roots configs, gksu uses the users settings but elevates permissions
[22:15] <amirman> guntbert: i like seeing information on what's happening
[22:15] <wiehan> guntbert thanks for correcting me, but as it states in your link it doesn't really matter... but I'll use and advise gksudo from now on
[22:15] <jrib> whta: are you 'cd'ed into the directory somewhere?
[22:16] <whta> jrib: no. i tried it after just logging on and it didn't work
[22:16] <Flannel> wiehan: It does matter.  gksu (or gksudo) should always be used for graphical programs, or you can have issues trying to log in.
[22:16] <guntbert> amirman: I suppose so :), but IF you do, use gksu, instead of sudo
[22:16] <ActionParsnip> whta: is your pwd in that mountpoint? try cd ~/ sudo umount /home/ssb/myst
[22:16] <amirman> wiehan: my general rule is that if you absolutely know everything will go fine nautilus in root is fine, otherwise you might as well use the CLI so you can see what if anything goes wrong
[22:16] <vbman11> hi all, does anyone know of a good gtk+ ide that i can use glade with
[22:17] <guntbert> wiehan: didn't want to "correct" you :)
[22:17] <wiehan> flannel amirman I've been using it since gutsy and have never had a problem, ever
[22:17] <Flannel> !worksforme | wiehan
[22:17] <whta> actionparsnip: it still says the device is busy. i've mounted files here before with no issue, as well
[22:17] <ActionParsnip> wiehan: you can damage ownerships and permissions of files
[22:17] <ActionParsnip> whta: try a reboot

[22:17] <Pixelz`> I have an onboard nic, intel 8257EI gigabit ethernet controller, it shows up in lshw as unclaimed, how do I get it working?
[22:17] <kira_> hi all... is there a tutorial ... i have running sshd and i will restrict access for user : root
[22:18] <kira_> how to do
[22:18] <Flannel> kira_: Have you changed anything with ssh or root? set a root password or anything like that?
[22:18] <ActionParsnip> kira_: sudo apt-get install openssh-server
[22:18] <dr_willis> kira_,  rephrase that a little...  its not real clear.
[22:18] <keepsak1> ﻿Hi, I'm having a problem (trying to install Windows XP), "fdisk -l" detects my partitions properly, but GParted and qtParted cannot detect my partitions (GParted detects my entire HDD as "unallocated" and qtParted errors). Can someone help?
[22:18] <Floid> vbman:  Whatever the GNOME one is?  (Anjaya or something?)
[22:18] <JackWinter> anyone know a good tutorial for moving /boot to it's own partition ?
[22:18] <Floid> Er, Anjuta.
[22:18] <Flannel> !home | JackWinter
[22:18] <dr_willis> kira_,  by default root can not directly login via ssh. You have to login as your initial user, and use sudo
[22:18] <kira_> no i have not set a root password
[22:19] <habit> ActionParsnip, can you tell me what means 'sync' option?
[22:19] <kira_> cool thats ok thanks
[22:19] <habit> ActionParsnip, it's about nfs
[22:19] <Flannel> JackWinter: except do it with boot, instead of home.  (And then you need to use the first link in !grub) to change stage1 to look for the new boot.
[22:19] <ActionParsnip> habit: no idea, sorry
[22:19] <JackWinter> thanks Flannel

[22:22] <staddum> well, i just installed ubuntu, and im new trying to install my GRAPHIC CARD drivers and my sound drivers
[22:22] <staddum> How am i suppose to do it?

[22:23] <histo> Anyone here using tightvncserver and 64bit ubuntu? I can't get tightvnc-java working any attempt to connect via a web browser crashes the vnc server.

[22:25] <physically_fit> wiehan, owned?, why?
[22:25] <H0T_R0D> is there a command i can type in the terminal to see what applacations i have installed?
[22:25] <Flannel> wiehan: please stop.
[22:25] <ActionParsnip> histo: id install it but keey your ear to the floor
[22:25] <Pixelz`> I have an onboard nic, intel 8257EI gigabit ethernet controller, it shows up in lshw as unclaimed, how do I get it working? I've tried installing the e1000 mod & that did absolutely nothing
[22:26] <dr_willis> histo,  vnc4server, tightvnc, and perhaps some other vnc-varants. :) depending on your needs.
[22:26] <histo> ActionParsnip: I can use x11vnc but my resolution is huge on my current desktop making it slow client or not.
[22:26] <Jordan_U> wiehan: Dude, even google knows that: http://www.google.com/search?q=answer+to+life%2C+the+universe%2C+and+everything
[22:26] <ActionParsnip> histo: use masses of compression to make it faster
[22:26] <cellofellow> echo $PYTHONPATH returns nothing. Python still works so I think I'm missing something.
[22:26] <dr_willis> histo,  i find it often is best to use vnc4server (or other) and a very minimal desktop.   for best speeds
[22:26] <ActionParsnip> Jordan_U: offtopic dude
[22:27] <keepsak1> H0T_R0D: there is one, it's called deb(something)
[22:27] <keepsak1> H0T_R0D: i forgot the exact name, i'll look it up
[22:28] <histo> dr_willis: yeah that would be nice but its painfully slow compared to tightvnc
[22:28] <anonymous_____> H0T_R0D: Try running "sudo dpkg -l".
[22:28] <Eoraptor_> dr_willis, why don`t you use the terminal-server-client, which comes with ubuntu?
[22:28] <Deus_ex_machina> hello
[22:28] <quentusrex23> Is there a way to manage Bind9 through an http interface?
[22:28] <anonymous_____> H0T_R0D: That should list all the packages that have been installed.
[22:29] <mreyfout> jrib: Thanks, but I'm not sure if applying the new colorscheme properly.. when I open a c++ file, it does seem to recogize the reserved work?
[22:29] <dr_willis> Eoraptor_,  becuse I often want the features that vnc gives me.. hidden,  persistant, 'desktops'
[22:29] <glasmark> Hey guys. I got banned from politics, don't know when I can go back. What's up?
[22:29] <quentusrex23> I need to be able to manage my DNS records through an http interface....
[22:29] <histo> ActionParsnip: dr_willis I'm contimplating installing intrepid in a vm to see if the problem persists with the new version.
[22:29] <lucas_> How do I check the version of a program (pidgin in this case)?
[22:29] <Deus_ex_machina> i swapped disk drives and now i have a sound issue
[22:29] <ActionParsnip> histo: worth a try
[22:29] <H0T_R0D> thanks!
[22:29] <Deus_ex_machina> anyone familiar with alsa
[22:29] <histo> lucas_: apt-cache shopkg packagename
[22:29] <Flannel> lucas_: apt-cache policy package
[22:29] <ActionParsnip> histo: if you get a score then make sure you let folks know
[22:29] <dr_willis> histo,  youmean you notice tightvnc being faster/slower then vnc4server ?  Ive not noticed any differances.. but its a bit hard to benchmark such things.
[22:29] <jrib> mreyfout: I don't understand what you said
[22:29] <lucas_> Thanks
[22:29] <mreyfout> jrib: Thanks, but I'm not sure if applying the new colorscheme properly.. when I open a c++ file, it does seem to recognize the reserved words?
[22:29] <histo> dr_willis: Huge difference.
[22:30] <jrib> mreyfout: did you do ":syntax on"?
[22:30] <histo> dr_willis: then again tightvncserver is using a seperate desktop that is lower res.
[22:30] <keepsak1> H0T_R0D: There's a similar program called "debfoster" that does a similar job
[22:30] <Deus_ex_machina> Ubuntu found all the necessary drivers of the new system
[22:30] <Deus_ex_machina> but oddly enough the sound is now distorted
[22:30] <Jordan_U> histo: Do you use compiz? One might be using compiz and the other not, AIGLX doesn't do xdamage nearly as well IIRC
[22:30] <Deus_ex_machina> it plays...but with lots of static
[22:30] <dr_willis> histo,  im only using it on a local lan.  its possible both can do the same compression and so forth. I normally use jwm/icewm on the vnc desktops also.  vnc4server can use its own desktop same as tightvncserver.  Could be some other settings also. # of colors, and so forth as well
[22:31] <Deus_ex_machina> any ideas what went wrong
[22:31] <Eoraptor_> dr_willis, maybe i should try it, too!
[22:31] <ActionParsnip> Deus_ex_machina: id head into ubuntu+1 if its intrepid
[22:31] <Flannel> glasmark: That wouldn't really be a topic for this channel.
[22:31] <mreyfout> jrib: Thanks, that did the trick
[22:31] <glasmark> sorry, leaving now
[22:31] <histo> dr_willis: can you use vnc-java with vnc4server?
[22:31] <Deus_ex_machina> intrepid_
[22:31] <Deus_ex_machina> ?
[22:31] <dr_willis> Eoraptor_,  i tend to have a vncserver going with jwm, and a xterm or 2. and perhaps  a torrent client.
[22:31] <sarthor> Hi, i have ubuntu installed on my dell laptop, now i want to install xp also for games, but the xp CD cant see the partitions i think, the screen remain black/blank, how can i install xp, While there is unpartitioned free space.
[22:31] <dr_willis> histo,  ive found the vnc-java stuff SO slow as to be unuseable . but ive not tried it in ages..
[22:32] <zni2> how can i learn dbus for python?
[22:32] <dr_willis> histo,  i always use a vncclient.
[22:32] <histo> dr_willis: yeah.
[22:32] <ActionParsnip> sarthor: you need to reduce the partition sizes to leave space for xp to install
[22:32] <dr_willis> histo,  i tend to use 'ultravnc' under wndows also. It could be some clients/servers  auto-negoiate to get best speeds also.
[22:32] <Jordan_U> sarthor: Try ##windows, but for when windows overwrites grub from the MBR see...
[22:32] <Jordan_U> !grub | sarthor
[22:33] <histo> dr_willis: Yeah i'm going to try the new version of tightvnc with intrepid and see if that fixes some of the bugs.
[22:33] <Deus_ex_machina> I think im slowly beginning to understand why people buy entire new PC systems.....one change and the whole thing goes south
[22:33] <ActionParsnip> sarthor: if there is unpartitioned unallocated space then xp can use that, you may need sata drivers if the internal drive is serial ata
[22:33] <staddum> well, i think my graphic card is already installed. . now im trying to install my sound card
[22:33] <staddum> any tips?
[22:33] <ActionParsnip> sarthor: you can play games with wine usually
[22:33] <Deus_ex_machina> well, ok just to be fair, swapping the hard drive isnt a small thing
[22:33] <histo> Then maybe we could get a backport.
[22:33] <staddum> (i dunno what's my soundcard)
[22:33] <Deus_ex_machina> but still
[22:33] <Deus_ex_machina> it should be able to find the new drivers
[22:33] <ActionParsnip> staddum: use lspci to see your hardware
[22:33] <keepsak1> ActionParsnip: It's worth it to note games run much poorer in Linux than they do in Windows
[22:33] <dr_willis> histo,  one reason i started using vnc4server ages ago was it had the least bugs. :)     ive not even tried others lately
[22:33] <H0T_R0D> and when i install packages what folder do they get downloaded to...?
[22:33] <H0T_R0D> temp something?
[22:33] <ActionParsnip> keepsak1: counterstrike source actually gains a few frames
[22:33] <Flannel> H0T_R0D: the package files themselves?
[22:33] <H0T_R0D> yes
[22:34] <Deus_ex_machina> how can i get ubuntu NOT to load sound drivers
[22:34] <Deus_ex_machina> on boot
[22:34] <ActionParsnip> keepsak1: and urban terror runs amazingly better on linux
[22:34] <Flannel> H0T_R0D: /vra/cache/apt/archives/
[22:34] <keepsak1> ActionParsnip: Strange, Counter-Strike Source for me runs at 10fps in Linux, while it does at 70+ in Windows
[22:34] <Flannel> H0T_R0D: /var/cache/apt/archives/
[22:34] <H0T_R0D> thats it
[22:34] <ActionParsnip> keepsak1: yuo obviously have kept the default config
[22:34] <keepsak1> ActionParsnip: I have an ATI card, which probably explains why.
[22:34] <histo> dr_willis: Well tightvncserver looks very nice if some of the bugs get worked out.
[22:34] <keepsak1> ActionParsnip: No, the config was completely customized
[22:34] <ActionParsnip> keepsak1: yep, ati sucks imho too
[22:35] <H0T_R0D> ok if i burn that archives to a cd i can reinstall the packages from a cdrom drive using dpkg?
[22:35] <bfig> i need help with madwifi, can somebody help me? it has just stopped working. i can't see any networks
[22:35] <lucas_> When I try to install the newest version of Pidgin, it says "Dependency is not satisfiable: libpurple0"
[22:35] <keepsak1> ActionParsnip: Too bad too, this card isn't normally bad =\
[22:35] <ActionParsnip> keepsak1: my onboard nvidia plays it fine
[22:35] <lucas_> What is wrong?
[22:35] <keepsak1> ActionParsnip: ATI has pretty bad support on Linux, and fglrx is pretty gad
[22:35] <keepsak1> bad*
[22:35] <ActionParsnip> lucas_: you need to install libpurple
[22:35] <rdw200169> the popularity of windows persists...
[22:35] <histo> dr_willis: I believe tightvncserver is just a rapper for xvnc anyways or vnc4server
[22:35] <lucas_> ActionParsnip, it is installed
[22:35] <histo> dr_willis: the tightvnc-java package is the issue
[22:36] <dr_willis> rdw200169,  just because everyone is using it.. dosent mean its popular. :)
[22:36] <ActionParsnip> lucas_: you may need a later version
[22:36] <ActionParsnip> keepsak1: thats why your windows games run better
[22:36] <rdw200169> i'm referring to corporate popularity
[22:36] <keepsak1> dr_willis: Isn't that what popular is defined as though?
[22:36] <dr_willis> histo,  Hmm.. ive never noticed that..
[22:36] <zcat[1]> wifi question; every time the interface comes up it's at 1mbps and needs "sudo iwconfig wlan0 rate 54M" to get it working properly; is there a config file this can go into so it will get done automaticallt? /etc/network/if-pre-up?
[22:36] <ActionParsnip> lucas_: does it not install if you update from repos
[22:36] <dr_willis> keepsak1,  Not really. :)  i would use the term 'commonplace'  instead of popular
[22:37] <keepsak1> ActionParsnip: Yeah, which is why I'm trying to reinstall Windows, but the only problem is, Window setup doesn't detect my partitions and GParted detects them as "unallocated" =\.
[22:37] <zcat[1]> !wifi
[22:38] <ActionParsnip> keepsak1: id get a separate drive myself, but thats me
[22:38] <histo> dr_willis: trying the intrepid packages to see how they go.
[22:38] <deepfriedsquirre> I just corrupted my partition table installing PCBSD. How would I go about recovering the data?
[22:38] <keepsak1> ActionParsnip: I would, but I don't have one with me at the moment, which bothers me =\
[22:38] <keepsak1> deepfriedsquirre: Have you tried using Testdisk?
[22:38] <ActionParsnip> lucas_: is pidgin on later than 2.4.1
[22:38] <deepfriedsquirre> Nope, thanks I'll google
[22:38] <staddum> how am i suppose to install my sound card (sorry, im really new to this OS)
[22:39] <zcat[1]> found the answer ;)
[22:39] <ActionParsnip> keepsak1: ive never used gparted as I always plan my partitioning
[22:39] <Flannel> !sound | staddum
[22:39] <sccrcrzy13> hey I need help with a dual boot problem can somebody help?
[22:39] <lucas_> ActionParsnip, i tried to install 2.5.1
[22:39] <ActionParsnip> staddum: run lspci, one line will relate to your soudcard, paste it in here
[22:39] <pale-yafa> hi guys, is there a tool that can create a diagram from database schema? I mean creating charts illistrating tables?
[22:39] <lucas_> ActionParsnip, from getdeb
[22:40] <sccrcrzy13> hey I need help with a dual boot problem anyone know how to help?
[22:40] <staddum> hum, guys, chill out lol, i dont even know how am i suppose to run a program lol xd
[22:40] <histo> dr_willis: nope bug still exists

[22:41] <keepsak1> sccrcrzy13: what are you trying to do?
[22:41] <sccrcrzy13> Vista doesnt show on my grubs menu
[22:42] <keepsak1> sccrcrzy13: you can manually add this to /boot/grub/menu.lst
[22:42] <RonzO> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=5826352 why is there explorer.exe in my ubuntu?
[22:42] <zni2> got /boot/grub/menu.lst
[22:42] <sccrcrzy13> how?
[22:42] <ActionParsnip> !terminal > staddum
[22:42] <keepsak1> sccrcrzy13: find the correct partition with "fdisk -l", and then add an entry in "/boot/grub/menu.lst"
[22:42] <zni2> scccrcrzy13 goto /boot/grub/menu.lst
[22:43] <xecration> If I chown a directory recursively to a group (i verified the group under permissions tab) and then recursively chmod the directory with permissions 775, is there any reason why I still wouldn't be able to delete/create or edit files in the said directory?
[22:43] <staddum> well. . now what should i write in terminal?
[22:43] <bbto> #redhat
[22:43] <PPKuma> hi, i have my webcam connected by usb (lsusb shows it), but camorama (a webcam software) dont detect any device in /dev/video0, should it point elsewhere?
[22:44] <sarthor> why my xp CD/or install cant go forward, its remain black in start, my CD is OK.
[22:44] <keepsak1> PPKuma: I might be wrong, but don't you have to mount it first?
[22:44] <sccrcrzy13> ok
[22:44] <PPKuma> keepsak1: dunno, ill try sudo mount /dev/video0
[22:44] <IntuitiveNipple> PPKuma: Maybe there isn't a kernel module driver for it... what does lsusb show as the device ID of the camera?
[22:44] <IntuitiveNipple> PPKuma: no, you don't mount cameras
[22:45] <keepsak1> PPKuma: ah, my bad, sorry for the mistake >__<
[22:45] <PPKuma> IntuitiveNipple: ok, it shows Bus 007 Device 002: ID 04f2:b008 Chicony Electronics Co., Ltd
[22:45] <PPKuma> keepsak1: dont worry, thanks anyway. :)
[22:46] <Deus_ex_machina_> problem solved...i just added a generic 5.1 sound card and disabled the onboard sound
[22:47] <Deus_ex_machina_> its a work around but it doesnt answer my question of what happened
[22:47] <sccrcrzy13> HI vista doesnt show on my grubs menu how do I fix it?
[22:47] <IntuitiveNipple> PPKuma: thanks, give me a moment
[22:48] <PPKuma> IntuitiveNipple: ok, i already instaled uvcvideo by the way
[22:48] <xecration> ﻿If I chown a directory recursively to a group (i verified the group under permissions tab) and then recursively chmod the directory with permissions 775, is there any reason why I still wouldn't be able to delete/create or edit files in the said directory? My user account and root are both members of the said group.
[22:49] <keepsak1> sccrcrzy13: in terminal, type "sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst", and pastebin the contents.
[22:49] <zcat[1]> !res
[22:49] <IntuitiveNipple> PPKuma:  okay, that device is supported by the uvcvideo driver, but I think it is a recent addition that isn't in the current Ubuntu driver... let me check
[22:49] <jrib> xecration: yes
[22:49] <tacone> is there any package in ubuntu which contains a database of common swearing words ?
[22:50] <xecration> Ok, so how do I fix the issue?
[22:50] <PPKuma> IntuitiveNipple: it wont get in conflict with uvcvicdeo?
[22:50] <jrib> xecration: pastebin the exact command you are using, and the full output.  Also include the relevant 'ls -ld whatever' and the output of 'mount'
[22:51] <Funoost> whatis windbind
[22:51] <IntuitiveNipple> PPKuma: you can replace the Ubuntu one with the newer one, let me check on it

[22:51] <matt____> I'm running the latest ubuntu server, but when I put a DVD, it doesn't mount. I believe I may need libcss2~~~ and libdvdread~~~.
[22:51] <keepsak1> sccrcrzy13: Use pastebin to paste it.
[22:51] <keepsak1> ! paste | sccrcrzy13
[22:52] <Deus_ex_machina_> ok....what should i do next.  I dont need the audio conenction at the rear.  The reason i switched PCs is to use the multimedia connectors at the front
[22:52] <Deus_ex_machina_> disabling the onboard sound is not an option
[22:52] <sccrcrzy13> http://paste.ubuntu.com/48698/
[22:52] <Deus_ex_machina_> ubuntu did recognize the driver\
[22:52] <matt____> I'm running the latest ubuntu server, but when I put a DVD, it doesn't mount. I believe I may need libcss2~~~ and libdvdread~~~.
[22:52] <Deus_ex_machina_> but the sound was distorted
[22:53] <xecration> there is no output for the commands i'm using. I created group www-data through the GUI. Then I went into terminal under root: "> usermod -a -G www-data xecration" "> chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/" ">chmod -R 775 /var/www/" and i still can't modify the files.
[22:53] <DasEi> ﻿matt____:mount > fstab    dvd>vlc-player
[22:53] <matt____> How can I find out why the dvd's aren't mounting?
[22:53] <DasEi> !vlc

[22:53] <keepsak1> monsterdragon13: No, we're clearly all bots =)
[22:53] <Deus_ex_machina_> whats real
[22:54] <monsterdragon13> lol
[22:54] <Deus_ex_machina_> are you alsa savvy?
[22:54] <DasEi> ***bots on
[22:54] <jrib> !who | xecration
[22:54] <monsterdragon13> do u have to be over 18 to use this or no?

[22:55] <monsterdragon13> so
[22:55] <keepsak1> sccrcrzy13: You don't have Vista installed, according to what I see

[22:55] <xecration> mt
[22:55] <monsterdragon13> any one to see my youtube page?
[22:55] <sccrcrzy13> welll..... I did....
[22:55] <jrib> xecration: tell me the output of 'groups'
[22:55] <xecration> it didn't copy >.<
[22:56] <sccrcrzy13> so how do I put vista back on?
[22:56] <xecration> @jrib: xecration@xslinux:~$ groups
[22:56] <xecration> xecration adm dialout cdrom floppy audio dip video plugdev fuse lpadmin admin
[22:56] <monsterdragon13> any one?
[22:56] <xecration> lol
[22:56] <jrib> xecration: notice anything missing? :)  You need to logout and log back in
[22:56] <keepsak1> sccrcrzy13: Get a GParted Live Disk, boot into it, shrink your Linux partition to make space for a Windows one, and reformat that to NTFS format.
[22:56] <xecration> ahh didn;t realize i needed to relog, i was wondering why it wasn't there
[22:56] <DasEi> !ot > monsterdragon13
[22:56] <Joeseph> out of curiosity, would the commad 'cat list.txt | ffmpeg' with list.txt syntax of "'input file' 'output file'" go through list.txt and change all the .flv videos to an mpeg video?
[22:56] <keepsak1> sccrcrzy13: I meant reformat the shrinked space.
[22:57] <xecration> thanks jrib
[22:57] <IntuitiveNipple> PPKuma: I've got a very recent uvcvideo DKMS package in my Ubuntu PPA. Do you want to install that ?
[22:57] <eeeandrew> hi all, would anyone be able to give me some advice on wireless desksets? I'm looking to buy one but I'm not sure if there are likely to be any compatibility issues. Anyone know?
[22:58] <keepsak1> sccrcrzy13: In short, you will have to reinstall Windows, because I think during the Ubuntu setup your entire hard disk was reformatted
[22:58] <DasEi> ﻿matt____:&
[22:59] <IntuitiveNipple> Joeseph: no, it wouldn't
[22:59] <Joeseph> IntuitiveNipple: What command would do what I want then?
[22:59] <Funoost> what is winbind
[23:00] <corunum> Hello, I'm having trouble running a program. It says only the root user can run it. How do I fix this?
[23:00] <Funoost> sudo [program]
[23:00] <IntuitiveNipple> Joeseph: You'd need something like "for file in $(cat list.txt); do ffmpeg <some-options-here> $file; done"
[23:00] <keepsak1> corunum: Use "sudo <app>" for text-based applications, and "gksudo <app>" for GUI-based.
[23:00] <corunum> Funoost, I've tried sudo then the location of the file and it doesn't work
[23:00] <Heooo> Why does I get a pop-up "Cannot mount a volume" when I plug my memory card in my Asus EEE with Ubuntu?!
[23:01] <jrib> corunum: what are you trying to run?
[23:01] <corunum> an updater for planeshift
[23:01] <Funoost> what's winbind - i get "fail" on runnning ubuntu
[23:01] <Joeseph> IntuitiveNipple: That's much more complicated....  I know how to do what I want to do in Python, I was just seeing if this way would be quicker.
[23:01] <keepsak1> corunum: have you tried "gksudo"?
[23:02] <corunum> Im about to try it
[23:02] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> oh, i figured out what i wanted to ask now.  what's the window title/descript/function for the black shading that popups behind gksudo?  i need the info so i can exclude it from the Wobbling Windows map
[23:02] <keepsak1> ! winbind | Funoost
[23:02] <staddum> how do i log with SU?
[23:02] <keepsak1> ! info winbind | Funoost
[23:02] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> "Window Class" i mean
[23:02] <jrib> staddum: what does that mean...?
[23:02] <IntuitiveNipple> Joeseph: well yes because you need to read the values from the file, one line at a time too, which would probably need to use while read $var1 $var2 syntax rather than for...
[23:02] <staddum> superuser
[23:02] <corunum> It did not work, I keep getting "PlaneShift Updater Version 5 for linux32.

[23:03] <teuteuguy> hello everyone.
[23:03] <csarven> While to use "gedit" from command line in SSH and open a file from the remote server?
[23:03] <staddum> I need to log with super-user so i can "Open" a cd

[23:04] <corunum> I've tried dragging and dropping if thats what you mean
[23:04] <ubuser> what would be the faster and most reliable fs for an external hard disk? ext3, reiserfs, xfs or jfs? thanks
[23:04] <Schuenemann> when I do a "fdisk -l" it lists my partitions and then says: "Logical partitions not in the same disk order". How do I fix that?
[23:04] <keepsak1> corunum: go in Terminal, and browse to the location of the update. Then use "sudo <app>" to update
[23:05] <IntuitiveNipple> ubuser: a single drive? what quantities and sizes of files? mostly read or mostly write? a mix? all those things impact which would be 'best' so it is subjective in many ways
[23:05] <Scunizi> ubuser: if you're going to use the hd on a windows system then ext3
[23:05] <trickydick> is there an application that will let me use both Yahoo & MSN messenger from ubuntu?
[23:05] <Scunizi> pidgin
[23:05] <keepsak1> Schuenemann: "sudo fdisk /dev/sda (replace with correct "sda" or "hda")"
[23:05] <trickydick> Scunizi, thanks, I'll check into it.
[23:06] <monotoko> hello's

[23:07] <simNIX> on Ubuntu they  are of no use
[23:07] <monotoko> staddum, use WINE
[23:07] <keepsak1> staddum: These are drivers for Windows and cannot be used in Ubuntu.
[23:07] <automatix> staddum: use wine
[23:07] <simNIX> for sound drivers wine ?
[23:07] <mike-d> i need the ata_piix kernel module for the installer, how do i get that on the install cd?
[23:07] <jrib> !sound > staddum
[23:07] <jrib> staddum: you can't use wine
[23:07] <monotoko> nvm, didnt read properly, no you cant
[23:08] <eeeandrew> would anyone be able to give me some advice on wireless desksets? I'm looking to buy one but I'm not sure if there are likely to be any compatibility issues. Anyone know?
[23:08] <arrenlex> Is it possible to launch the ubuntu installer from the command line on the desktop CD? What is the command?
[23:08] <jrib> !pm | staddum
[23:08] <Schuenemann> keepsak1, it gave a warning after I finished: re-read of table partition failed with error 22: invalid argument
[23:08] <monotoko> i have KDE and Gnome running, are there anymore i have?

[23:09] <jrib> monotoko: are you looking for window managers or desktop environments
[23:09] <Schuenemann> keepsak1, I don't that will help... I'm not using it in english
[23:09] <Schuenemann> don't think*
[23:09] <trickydick> Scunizi, ok, I have configured pidgin for yahoo but my friends list isn't showing, it's all blank. Am I to re-add all my friends back?
[23:09] <el3allali> Hello
[23:09] <monotoko> desktop environments
[23:09] <keepsak1> Schuenemann: Ah, I see. Does the operation finish, or does it end?
[23:09] <IntuitiveNipple> arrenlex: /usr/bin/ubiquity (I think)
[23:10] <Schuenemann> keepsak1, it also says kernel is still using the old table and the new one will be used in the next reboot
[23:10] <Schuenemann> it ended
[23:10] <Scunizi> trickydick: you might need to wait for a bit for them to load. .. also make sure you're actually on line with yahoo.
[23:10] <keepsak1> Schuenemann: Reboot and try "fdisk -l" again.
[23:10] <ubuser> scunizi: i thought there are programs to read also xfs from windows
[23:10] <mike-d> IntuitiveNipple: how do I check if ata_piix is included in an install cd? I'm fairly sure thats the model i need to get my hdd up and runing, but i'm not sure how to check and I'd like to get it figured out before i head back home
[23:10] <Schuenemann> keepsak1, ok, I'll try. Thanks
[23:11] <automatix> !pt | staddum
[23:11] <trickydick> Scunizi, ok, It's been up for several minutes, let me just recheck my username/pass because I'm not sure if I have to use "myusername@yahoo.com" or "myusername" for pidgin
[23:11] <monotoko> whats the xfce package called?
[23:11] <Scunizi> monotoko: ubuntu-desktop
[23:11] <monotoko> cheers
[23:11] <Scunizi> xubuntu-desktop
[23:11] <IntuitiveNipple> mike-d: From what I've seen you've come to the same conclusion as me earlier. I went looking and found the ICH9/10 drivers and mention of putting them on a floppy or USB stick for the installer to pick up using F6
[23:11] <ubuser> IntuitiveNipple: single drive. both big and small files. mostly read
[23:11] <jrib> monotoko: xubuntu-desktop
[23:11] <el3allali> i have a seriouse prolem with my nvidia gc, i tried all drivers from ubuntu & EnvyNG, but still have 800/600 as bigest resolution i can set
[23:12] <Scunizi> monotoko: xubuntu-desktop
[23:12] <el3allali> i'm using last version of ubuntu
[23:12] <monotoko> hmm
[23:12] <monotoko> it should support almost all hardware
[23:13] <el3allali> but i can't set it up
[23:13] <arrenlex> IntuitiveNipple: That was it, thanks!
[23:13] <monotoko> but it obviously doesnt seem to like nvidia gc
[23:13] <monotoko> il have a look
[23:14] <el3allali> one time it worked , & i tested some 3D effect, it was asking me to restart to finish setup, after setup i got 800/600 !!!!
[23:14] <monotoko> its fiesty
[23:14] <monotoko> try switching to heron
[23:14] <monotoko> (the newest 1)
[23:14] <Emmett> or heroin
[23:14] <eeeandrew> did my final fitting for my bridesmaid dress on, you?
[23:14] <eeeandrew> would anyone be able to give me some advice on wireless desksets? I'm looking to buy one but I'm not sure if there are likely to be any compatibility issues. Anyone know?
[23:14] <keepsak1> el3allali: have you tried reconfiguring xorg-server?
[23:14] <x2o> hi whats de difference between && und &
[23:14] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> k, question for anyone not busy :)
[23:14] <el3allali> i have hardy heron
[23:15] <x2o> after an command
[23:15] <mike-d> IntuitiveNipple: hmm, that seems like it may be complicated, I bet thier normally packaged with the kernel so slipping them on for the install wouldn't be that easy, if i just take the .ko, would it work?
[23:15] <IntuitiveNipple> ubuser: Go with the well-known then, ext3
[23:15] <automatix> !pt staddum
[23:15] <automatix> !pt | staddum
[23:15] <el3allali> keepsak1: nvidia-xconfig ? i did it but no result
[23:15] <IntuitiveNipple> mike-d: The Hardy installer has the option to load external drivers just like Windows does... let me just check on the specifics
[23:15] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> got Wobbly Windows in compiz working, but anytime gksudo is run, the black "splash screen" behind the password entry box wobbles... looks cool, for about 2 minutes, then it's annoying...  what's the Window Class name for that so i can remove it?
[23:15] <keepsak1> el3allali: i mean sudo dpkg-reconfigure xorg-server
[23:16] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> anyone here happen to know?
[23:16] <el3allali> btw, how can i response some one directly like what "keepsak1" did with me ?
[23:16] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> i can't do a Window Grab b/c gksudo blocks all input except for the password box
[23:16] <ubuser> thanks
[23:16] <keepsak1> ! who | el3allali
[23:16] <mike-d> IntuitiveNipple: thanks
[23:16] <monotoko> el3allali just say there name and it will highlight
[23:17] <monotoko> alternativly, double click there name to send a PM
[23:17] <el3allali> thanks a lot
[23:17] <monotoko> np
[23:18] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> monotoko, check PMs, apparently Ctrl+R disconnects...
[23:18] <harmattan> Hi. Does anybody know if the module for Conceptronic C54RU usb wireless depend in some non-free firmware?
[23:19] <el3allali> keepsak1: i'll try it, and telll you what happend
[23:19] <keepsak1> el3allali: okay, although if you don't shut down X first, you might need to restart
[23:19] <Jacobbs> I love Ubuntu
[23:19] <Jacobbs> I just have to get the hang of this terminal thing.
[23:20] <el3allali> keepsak1: is it nice if i restart only x ? (alt+ctrl+<- or logout)
[23:21] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> i was suggested to try posting this again.  Does anyone know the "Window Class" name for the "splash screen" that comes up behind the password box for gksudo?
[23:21] <purpleback> i have a semi ubuntu related question and i dont know anyone as helpful as you guys: ok so many moons ago i finally decided to fully make the switch on my laptop over to ubuntu; however, i have decided to dual boot with windows now for gaming purposes; however, even though ubuntu fully recognizes my wireless windows doesnt pick up on it at all. is this purely windows suck? or ubuntu...
[23:21] <purpleback> ...stupidity? (also if you have a way to fix it it would be lovely if you would tell me)
[23:21] <keepsak1> el3allali: I'd suggest using alt-shift-f2 (or whichever shortcut it was that switched you into terminal mode), then use "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start" to restart x
[23:21] <jasuus> what package are the manual pages for malloc, memcpy, etc. located?
[23:21] <orangey> purpleback: this is purely a windows problem.
[23:21] <el3allali> keepsak1: "/usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: xorg-server n'est pas installé"
[23:21] <purpleback> orangey: know any solutions? D:
[23:22] <el3allali> i got this ?!
[23:22] <orangey> purpleback: in a dual-boot situation, there's basically no way that ubuntu is interfering.
[23:22] <orangey> purpleback: sure. Get the correct drivers.
[23:22] <Funoost> haha i have the complete opposite problem - my windows wireless works and ubuntu doesnt work
[23:22] <orangey> purpleback: beyond that, I think you probably need to take it up with the manufacturer / #windows
[23:22] <keepsak1> el3allali: strange, let me have a look
[23:22] <purpleback> orangey: how do i do that when it has no internet connection? D:
[23:22] <orangey> purpleback: well, it works in ubuntu, right?
[23:22] <el3allali> keepsak1: take your time
[23:22] <purpleback> yes.
[23:22] <keepsak1> el3allali: oops, it should be "xserver-xorg"
[23:23] <orangey> purpleback: download there and put it on a USB key or copy it over (Ubuntu should be able to read your partition)
[23:23] <purpleback> orangey: how do i figure out which drivers i need, and how do i copy it over?
[23:23] <daklan> jasuus: c++?
[23:23] <orangey> purpleback: by this point we're way outside of the #ubuntu domain.
[23:23] <keepsak1> el3allali: try ctrl-alt-f2
[23:23] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> #ubuntu: :D  anyone here know the Window Class name for the UAC-like shading window behind the password box for gksudo?  I need it to exclude it from a Wobbly Windows for map
[23:23] <purpleback> orangey: the second part of that question isnt :D
[23:24] <Inveterat> hi
[23:24] <monotoko> hiya
[23:24] <orangey> purpleback: This is fundamentally a windows problem: How do you get a network driver on a network-less computer. Personally, my solution was to upgrade my windows to Ubuntu or some similarly pain-free distro.
[23:25] <dr_willis> Hmm. Has anyone noticed a way to disable that 'dimming of the background' when the 'enter password' dialog  pops up? Using xdmcp and its REALLY annoying.
[23:25] <cpierce> linux iptables question:  i'm running my network though IPTABLES + MASQ and I cannot VPN to a PPTP server on another network....any ideas?
[23:25] <Inveterat> I need help. I've burn a CD with Ubuntu but... i think is only LiveCD. What is the name of the "Ubuntu-WindowsKiller"?
[23:26] <monotoko> dr_willis: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-435755.html
[23:26] <Schuenemann> keepsak1, they're still out of order
[23:26] <orangey> Inveterat: what are you tring to do?
[23:26] <Scunizi> Inveterat: the LiveCD is the full install of ubuntu.. some would call it a windows killer OS.. :)
[23:26] <el3allali> keepsak1: i already tried this one yesterday, it asked me about keyboard layout, Kb lang . nothing about graphics ?!!
[23:26] <dr_willis> monotoko,  cool. :) ive just noticed how SLOW it makes my xdmcp session when it does that.
[23:27] <Inveterat> I want to install any kind of Linux.. I want to swip off Windows.
[23:27] <el3allali> i tried it just now too
[23:27] <orangey> Inveterat: the live CD will do that
[23:27] <monotoko> np man, i noticed that too
[23:27] <Inveterat> yea¿?
[23:27] <Inveterat> Is Ubuntu 8.04.1
[23:27] <orangey> Inveterat: just wipe out the partition you want.
[23:27] <orangey> yep. it'll do it.
[23:27] <Inveterat> Uooo
[23:27] <Inveterat> ok!
[23:27] <Inveterat> thanks
[23:27] <orangey> just make sure the information you want is backed up
[23:28] <IntuitiveNipple> mike-d: Are you installing from the alternate CD or desktop?
[23:28] <Inveterat> I hope to see U soon, but using Unix
[23:28] <Inveterat> desktop
[23:28] <Scunizi> Inveterat: not Unix.... Linux.. Ubuntu
[23:28] <Inveterat> XD
[23:28] <Inveterat> sorry
[23:28] <Scunizi> np
[23:28] <mike-d> IntuitiveNipple: i think i found the problem, a thread claims that ahci conflicts with ata_piix, you have to load the ahci driver first, but by default the cd loads ata_piix first, which lets it see the cd drives but not the harddrives, you have to use ata_piix.blacklist=yes boot option then modprobe it when the installer complains that it can't see a cd
[23:28] <mike-d> really wierd but apparently it works
[23:29] <IntuitiveNipple> mike-d: oooo! tell me if that works... that needs documenting in the forums!
[23:29] <Inveterat> I will try an spanish version called "Guadalinex"
[23:29] <Inveterat> yesterday they show the new V5
[23:30] <Inveterat> well thanks all
[23:30] <Inveterat> bb!!
[23:30] <mike-d> IntuitiveNipple: will do
[23:31] <csilk> when i upgraded to the latest ubuntu, my sound stopped working,  I'm told this has been a commom problem and there are all manner of workarounds, but mine just started working on it's own?
[23:32] <monotoko> did you upgrade?
[23:32] <monotoko> or update?
[23:32] <monotoko> it might have found the driver it needed
[23:32] <csilk> downloaded the iso and formatted
[23:32] <staddum> Question: i need to install my sound card (p5vd2-mx) how do i do it?
[23:32] <Schuenemann> keepsak1, this is the output: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/48719/
[23:33] <el3allali> so ? i have to work with linux like that or go back to win ?!
[23:33] <monotoko> ohh, it will have found the sound card

[23:33] <monotoko> it does that, its better than windows and supports most hardware
[23:33] <staddum> Question: i need to install my sound card (p5vd2-mx) how do i do it?
[23:33] <el3allali> i had (& still have) a nvidi gc prob

[23:35] <raulh> ﻿el3allali oo I HAD THAT PROBLEM
[23:35] <hwilde> how do I burn an audio cd ?
[23:35] <raulh> ﻿el3allali: have you installed your graphics driver?
[23:35] <csilk> hwilde,  in the apps menu
[23:35] <csilk> look in there, if you cant find what you need then ask again
[23:35] <csilk> please try to use common sense before asking
[23:35] <hwilde> csilk, don'
[23:35] <el3allali> raulh: yes i did ? & it was the beginning of problems
[23:35] <raulh> ﻿el3allali : my nvidea wasn't installed by default but easily was installed in the administrative >hardware
[23:35] <hwilde> csilk, don't be a jerk.  how do you force it to burn AUDIO not just put the mp3 on the cd as data
[23:36] <csilk> hwilde,  so whats the problem?
[23:36] <raulh> ﻿el3allali: what's your vid card?
[23:36] <hwilde> csilk, it just makes a data cd not an audio cd
[23:36] <csilk> applications>sound&video>Brasero
[23:36] <csilk> then click audio project
[23:36] <con-man> hey I need to go printer shopping, any printers is particular that work well with linux?
[23:36] <el3allali> raulh: i tried derivers from ubuntu and Anvy but no result
[23:36] <raulh> hwlide: u shouldnt talk back to him if he's tryking to help :\
[23:36] <csilk> con-man,  i advise you google that one
[23:36] <el3allali> raulh: it geforce4 MX 4000
[23:36] <hwilde> csilk, brasero is not installed by default
[23:36] <raulh> let me see if i can find any trubbleshooting
[23:36] <csilk> hwilde,  yes it is
[23:37] <bujar> a program to recover deleted data?
[23:37] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> i'm guessing noone here knows, but i figured i'd ask here one last time.  Anybody know the Window Class or ID of the gksudo password screen (the shaded window behind the box)
[23:37] <csilk> unless you are using an older ubuntu
[23:37] <dr_willis> con-man,  also depends on your printing needs.. I would avoide canon  for starters. :)
[23:37] <staddum> I HAVE A P5VD2-MX AND I NEED TO INSTALL THE DRIVERS! HOW DO I DO IT?
[23:37] <hwilde> csilk, brasero is not installed by default
[23:37] <jrib> !printing > con-man
[23:37] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> i need it to exclude it from the map for wobbly windows
[23:37] <csilk> hwilde,  it is if you are using the CURRENT version of ubuntu
[23:37] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> and i can't use xprop
[23:37] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> gksudo blocks anything
[23:37] <jrib> staddum: you keep asking questions but ignoring links people send.  And now you're also being annoying with the caps
[23:37] <hwilde> csilk, brasero is not installed by default
[23:37] <csilk> hwilde,  it sounds like you are using an older version of ubuntu
[23:37] <bujar> can someone sugest a program to recover deleted data?
[23:37] <hwilde> nope 8.04.1
[23:37] <csilk> amirite?
[23:37] <jrib> con-man: hp are usually pretty good
[23:37] <raulh> ﻿el3allali : can you go into "administration>hardware"
[23:37] <jrib> !recover > bujar
[23:38] <raulh> and see if your driver is there
[23:38] <csilk> hwilde,  in that case, yes it is installed by default
[23:38] <el3allali> raulh: in device manager i find it as a PCI Device ?!!!
[23:38] <ThexLeopard> does anyone know how to create a windows share in terminal?
[23:38] <raulh> so your vid card is a pci carD?
[23:38] <raulh> or is ubuntu mis-reading it
[23:38] <jrib> !samba > ThexLeopard
[23:38] <simNIX> ThexLeopard, smb.conf wil need editing for that
[23:39] <ThexLeopard> what needs editing or adding?
[23:39] <Eoraptor_> Ist hier jemand aus Deutschland?
[23:39] <csilk> hwilde,  you found it yet?
[23:39] <jrib> !de | Eoraptor_
[23:39] <el3allali> raulh: i find that my driver is not used
[23:39] <staddum> ups
[23:39] <raulh> ok give me 1 second
[23:39] <Funoost> okay i has problem - wireless problem - i am trying to get wireless working with net111v2 -- i have done all the /interface/ shit and i have gotten ndiswrapper
[23:40] <staddum> jips i didnt ignore any link and i didn't want to use caps, i apologize for that
[23:40] <simNIX> !samba > simNIX
[23:40] <staddum> but im getting really hungry!!
[23:40] <raulh> ﻿el3allali: >system >administration>hard ware testing
[23:40] <el3allali> raulh: i activated it, i have to restart, i'll be back after.
[23:40] <raulh> ok
[23:40] <Gnea> Funoost: please do not swear. what interface stuff?
[23:40] <jrib> staddum: did you read through the !sound factoid and the links there?  I don't know about your card, but the links are where you should start
[23:40] <el3allali> raulh: thanks a lot
[23:40] <raulh> welcome
[23:41] <raulh> wewt i helped someone xD
[23:41] <TuTUXG> how do i pipe the result of "file" to "cp"?
[23:42] <Gnea> TuTUXG: why?
[23:42] <hwilde> csilk, i'm installing it.  I do see Ubuntu-desktop (1.87) includes Brasero.   but it seems like I dont have ubuntu-desktop installed somehow
[23:42] <jrib> TuTUXG: | but I'm assuming you actually want to do something else
[23:42] <linu> oi
[23:42] <csilk> hwilde,  that's pretty strange. I'm guessing you upgraded via the package manager or something and that's what caused the issue?
[23:43] <raulh> CSilk should i get java SE6
[23:43] <raulh> or 5.0
[23:43] <csilk> 6
[23:43] <raulh> ok thanks

[23:43] <xomp> hi guys, I have a windows share that I'm trying to reach from ubuntu but it's not working. Is there anything I should know prior to trying to connect to this windows share?
[23:43] <staddum> jrib dude, i dont understand 90% of what you're saying, you guys use linux terms, and as i said b4, i do not understand them
[23:43] <soulchild> raulh: No I want to backup files

[23:46] <deepfriedsquirre> I'm about to attempt to recover data using checkdisk - I'm not sure about some things about it, so some answer would be very much appreciated. I take it that to recover my data, I can change the status of partitions so that they're what they wee before and there aren't overlaps? If I do this, will I be able to access all the data in there like before? And, despite me using these left and right arrow keys as it says, why can't I change the status to 
[23:46] <switch2000> to stop it, killall -9 python
[23:46] <hwilde> switch2000, you know how to kill it?  the command would be something like    kill -9 `pidof python`    or whatever the process is called
[23:47] <xomp> hi guys, I have a windows share that I'm trying to reach from ubuntu but it's not working (the share isn't showing up). Is there anything I should know prior to trying to connect to this windows share?
[23:47] <vassler> WHAT IS THE BEST MUSIC CD DISK BURNING SOFTWARE 4 LINUX/UBUNTU
[23:47] <vassler> ??
[23:47] <raulh> ﻿xomp: what exacly is a window share?
[23:47] <D3RGPS31> I'm using LAMP, my virtualhosts arn't responding to my .htaccess files, anyone throing in two cents?
[23:47] <hwilde> switch2000, ok now on command line run  "top -b -n1"
[23:47] <Pici> !best | vassler
[23:47] <dr_willis> xomp,  in the past ive often had to type in the share names or help the gnome file manager get the right names.  - often when it scans the networks it dosent get the names. :(
[23:47] <xomp> raulh, it's plural, windows* Microsoft Windows
[23:48] <raulh> windows <== is plural >_>
[23:48] <csilk> vassler, just use brasero
[23:48] <switch2000> yup, i get a list
[23:48] <csilk> it's default installed
[23:48] <ThexLeopard> a windows share is just a shared folder you can access in windows
[23:48] <switch2000> TIME+ of python is already 6:19:75
[23:48] <hwilde> switch2000,   now run            top -b -n1  | grep python | awk '{print $9}'
[23:48] <raulh> then it should be able to be found on the drive
[23:48] <Yekyaa[Ubuntu]> ok, does anyone have any suggestions?
[23:48] <raulh> windows should show up as a regular "drive"
[23:49] <switch2000> it printed out 2.0
[23:49] <hwilde> switch2000, that is how much cpu it's using
[23:49] <raulh> does anyone know if a psc 1500 printer will be supported by ubuntu?
[23:49] <switch2000> hmm thanks: )
[23:50] <dr_willis> raulh,  you might want to check the cups.org web site to see how well the cups system supports it.  thats what ubuntu uses.
[23:50] <xomp> dr_willis, am I right to go to "Places" > "Network" when attempting to connect to a windows share?
[23:50] <raulh> thanks willis
[23:50] <jeff_Q> need help: my windows xp sp3 computer can't print from shared printer on Ubuntu 8.0.4.1.
[23:50] <jeff_Q> i followed instructions from these two links: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkPrintingWithUbuntu   and  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkPrintingFromWinXP
[23:50] <D3RGPS31> I'm using LAMP, my virtualhosts arn't responding to my .htaccess files, any thoughts >.>
[23:51] <AaronMT> can u install osx through virtualbox
[23:51] <dr_willis> xomp,  yea. thats one way. then it should show the workgroup and then machines, often i find the machines do not show all their shares correctly and i have to  enter in the proper share name
[23:51] <yaris123456789> if something is BSD Licensed, can i steal their code and put my copyright on it
[23:51] <xomp> dr_willis, it shows the workgroup, but 0 machines :(
[23:51] <ThexLeopard> xomp are you sure youre on the right workgroup?
[23:52] <dr_willis> xomp,  you have updated to the latest  updates?
[23:52] <xomp> ThexLeopard, I don't know what the default workgroup is for ubuntu, is there a way of finding out?
[23:52] <xomp> dr_willis, yes, latest updates are installed.
[23:52] <ThexLeopard> there isnt one
[23:52] <etherealpanda> Can anyone tell me what the default permissions of /var/lib/samba/usershares should be after installing samba? I keep getting a permissions error when trying to add a share via nautilus. (I'm part of the sambashare group and have restarted.)
[23:52] <ThexLeopard> ubuntu will list every workgroup it finds on a network
[23:53] <xomp> ThexLeopard, ubuntu is finding the correct network workgroup, just not listing any machines/shares after that.
[23:53] <habit> Hello. Shutdown button is dissapeared from logout menu, help please.
[23:53] <ThexLeopard> do you know the share name and computer name?
[23:53] <xomp> ThexLeopard, yes
[23:53] <ThexLeopard> try typing in the location directly

[23:54] <Pici> vassler: caps are not needed.

[23:55] <Max-P> etherealpanda: I don't know, its an integrated one on my laptop (HP dv6000)

[23:55] <vassler> XOMP: IS IT 4 GNOME?
[23:55] <D3RGPS31> vassler: CAPS off
[23:55] <vassler> sorry

[23:56] <D3RGPS31> under LAMP, my virtualhosts arn't responding to my .htaccess files, any suggestions? >.<
[23:56] <xomp> brb, shall try workgroup heh
[23:56] <vassler> can someone answer my question?
[23:56] <etherealpanda> Max-p: Sorry, there was an off chance you were using the same one I was. Mine's flaky due to a known bug in the driver. Have you done an lspci looking for possible candidates?
[23:56] <dr_willis> vassler,  i think it has been answered.. K3b
[23:57] <Pici> !best > vassler
[23:57] <Max-P> etherealpanda did an lspci, but found nothing about the remote
[23:57] <Max-P> etherealpanda it's like if it was not detected (like now)
[23:57] <vassler> blah blah blah...
[23:57] <Max-P> but sometimes, it works without any problem
[23:57] <etherealpanda> Max-P: What kind of laptop is it? Do you know the model?
[23:58] <Max-P> HP Pavillon dv6000 is my laptop
[23:58] <Max-P> with an HP remote
[23:58] <charlie``> I'm having a problem with my laptop overheating when I do anything CPU intensive (i.e. playing a game or compiling something very large.) anyone know how to fix this problem. I've never had overheating issues with windows on this system playing the same games.
[23:58] <csilk> why does ubuntu always get the time wrong when you install it?
[23:58] <csilk> it always gets it wrong by an hour
[23:58] <raulh> ﻿why does ubuntu always get the time wrong when you install it?
[23:58] <daklan> charlie``: sounds like acpi problem
[23:58] <D3RGPS31> csilk: it's the ubuntu way!
[23:58] <Max-P> charlie`` I fixed this problem with my old laptop with cpufreqd
[23:59] <raulh> because your comps inernal clock
[23:59] <raulh> is set diffrent
[23:59] <raulh> and ubuntu cant familiarize it on the spot, duh :o
[23:59] <raulh> mine was actually about 6hours behind lol
[23:59] <daklan> charlie``: does your fan run faster when it starts to overheat?
