| uaiui | i am newbie, got a problem..I fucked up the wifi drivers and related files trying to do an upgrade. now my iwconfig doesnt even see the card. | 00:00 |
|---|
| uaiui | I would like to know how i can recover from the installation cd | 00:00 |
|---|
| ThersiT | I need to upgrade HPLIP past the version that is offered by synaptic, do i need to uninstall the old one with synaptic first? | 00:01 |

| CorbinFox | i want to use the version of pidgin that comes with 7.10, is there a way to do that? 8.04's version isnt to my liking | 00:02 |
|---|
| noglorp | hey | 00:02 |
|---|
| DasE1 | sakuramboo: modprobe emu10k1 | 00:02 |
|---|
| bobertdos | TiTsAnDaSS: Everything should be available in the repos. Use Synaptic to graphically install the packages. | 00:02 |
|---|
| dr_willis | CorbinFox, its possible that the older pidgin may not work with some of the chat systems (aol/aim/msn) due to them constantly changing things. | 00:02 |
|---|
| noglorp | I'm having trouble getting nvidia drivers to work | 00:03 |
|---|
| DasE1 | sakuramboo: sudo gedit /etc/modules | 00:03 |
|---|
| noglorp | ubuntu 7.10, nvidia geforce 8600 gt | 00:03 |
|---|
| bobertdos | CorbinFox: and it isn't extraordinarily difficult to compile the new Pidgin from source. | 00:03 |
|---|
| DasE1 | sakuramboo: at the end of modules, new line : emu10k1 | 00:03 |
|---|
| artti | ŠØŠ no nice keyb0ard | 00:03 |
|---|
| fwaokda | my pidgin isn't working how do i fix it? I click on the icon in my panel and it opens a window bar at the bottom of my screen and then closes after about 7 seconds | 00:03 |
|---|
| CorbinFox | bobertdos: i want the old pidgin tho? and i dont know how to compile from source | 00:03 |
|---|
| TiTsAnDaSS | bobertdos I tried that couldn't find GTK+ I may need to install the upgrades since I have Dapper Drake | 00:04 |
|---|
| sakuramboo | sakuramboo@sakuramboo-desktop:~$ sudo modprobe emu10k1 | 00:04 |

| noglorp | does Envy still exist for installing nvidia drivers? | 00:04 |
|---|
| bobertdos | !find gtk+ | 00:04 |
|---|
| ubottu | Found: displayconfig-gtk, gftp-gtk, gnome-icon-theme-gartoon, gtk-doc-tools, gtk-im-libthai (and 418 others) | 00:04 |
|---|
| dr_willis | !envy | 00:04 |
|---|
| ubottu | envyng is an updated version of the *UNSUPPORTED* envy package. It is now part of the ubuntu universe repository (envyng-gtk OR envyng-qt) we suggest you use envyng if every other (official/supported) method fails! it can have various results from works, to fails!!! if you want the very latest drivers from the manufacturer you use them at your own risk | 00:04 |
|---|
| DasE1 | sakuramboo: save n close modules, then : sudo-apt get update && sudo apt-get upgrade | 00:04 |
|---|
| _bjordan | does anyone know how one might: | 00:04 |
|---|
| dr_willis | bobertdos, if you installed the normal ubuntu - gtk should been installed with it.. | 00:04 |
|---|
| _bjordan | (1) take a group of photos with both date created and EXIF metadata | 00:04 |
|---|
| _bjordan | (2) starting with one photo/time, create a slideshow/video/gif animation/flash animation that changes photos at the times they are taken? | 00:04 |
|---|
| _bjordan | (3, optional) add the audio of this event to it | 00:05 |
|---|
| sakuramboo | DasE1, nothing was upgraded | 00:05 |
|---|
| noglorp | I cant find envy in apt repository despite having enabled all the disabled repositories in my list | 00:05 |
|---|
| bobertdos | dr_willis: I'm not the one asking. The person who is asking is on Dapper :p | 00:05 |
|---|
| _bjordan | without having to do the second item manually | 00:05 |
|---|
| DasE1 | sakuramboo: apps>multimedia>alsamixer | 00:05 |
|---|
| DasE1 | sakuramboo: *gui | 00:05 |
|---|
| TiTsAnDaSS | hmmm so let me get this straight is GTK the same as GTK+? | 00:05 |
|---|
| noglorp | 'apt-cache search envy only turns' up one result and it is unrelated' | 00:05 |
|---|
| dr_willis | bobertdos, Err.. gnome uses gtk, so im not sure what hes really asking/needing. :) | 00:05 |
|---|
| sakuramboo | yeah | 00:06 |
|---|
| DasE1 | sakuramboo: does your card show up in the mixer-gtk ? | 00:06 |
|---|
| Rodzilla | alguien sabe como configurar el sistema gráfico en ubuntu? en centos yo uso system-config-display, que comando se usa en ubuntu? | 00:06 |
|---|
| sakuramboo | yip | 00:06 |
|---|
| dr_willis | gtk is the name of the 'widget toolkit' i belive. Not sure how gtk and gtk+ differ. Perhaps one is a newer verison | 00:06 |
|---|
| bobertdos | dr_willis: I guess I don't either, unless........ | 00:06 |
|---|
| cyban | _bjordan, Flash would be easiest depending on what its for | 00:06 |
|---|
| DasE1 | sakuramboo: you're saved if you did the modules thing right, have fun... | 00:06 |
|---|
| TiTsAnDaSS | trying to install a checkbook program and one of the files as a requirement is GTK+ | 00:07 |
|---|
| bobertdos | TiTsAnDaSS: What precisely are you needing? Are you looking to develop GTk apps or...???? | 00:07 |
|---|
| sakuramboo | DasE1, like i said, with alsa, i can hear sound, but not with pulse, now, with alsa, i can only use 1 device at a time and the front panel doesnt work | 00:07 |
|---|
| _bjordan | cyban: there would be a way to script that sort of thing within flash? | 00:07 |
|---|
| sakuramboo | errr, not one device, one sound program | 00:07 |
|---|
| _bjordan | cyban: to script with file creation dates? | 00:07 |
|---|
| Rodzilla | some body know how to setup xserver? on centos I use system-config-display... What command can I use on ubuntu' | 00:07 |
|---|
| Rodzilla | ??? | 00:07 |
|---|
| DasE1 | sakuramboo: try a reboot: sudo reboot | 00:07 |
|---|
| alphae | hý | 00:07 |
|---|
| cyban | _bjordan, ya you can do some fairly advanced scripting in Flash - its has things like get file properties etc | 00:07 |
|---|
| DasE1 | Rodzilla: first backup xorg.conf.... | 00:08 |

|---|
| tripitakit | Rodzilla: gnome or kde? | 00:08 |

| noglorp | do I have to manually add a repository besides the commented-out ones in the list? | 00:08 |
|---|
| Rodzilla | tripitakit, gnome | 00:08 |
|---|
| DasE1 | Rodzilla: then what you look for might be : displayconfig-gtk | 00:08 |
|---|
| _bjordan | cyban: thanks! owe you a beer | 00:08 |
|---|
| cyban | np | 00:09 |

|---|
| tonibuntu | ...and question; i don't see 'software sources' in his menu, just 'software properties' which doesn't seem to be the same thing. | 00:12 |

| tensei | tripitakit: where would I find that? | 00:12 |

|---|
| cyban | uninstall those, then reboot, then sudo apt-get update/upgrade | 00:13 |
|---|
| jennifer | the new drivers just overwrite something and the kernel i think | 00:13 |
|---|
| NickRead | dr_willis: yes - but envyng is only for Hardy | 00:13 |
|---|
| tensei | thanks... | 00:13 |
|---|
| sp0k34_ | what you talkin bout willis | 00:13 |
|---|
| dr_willis | I wouldent trust envy for any earlier releases.. i would use the nvidia.run stuff | 00:13 |
|---|
| danopia | milostrife, idk, synaptic uses apt afaik | 00:13 |
|---|
| jennifer | because i cannot see the card anymore | 00:13 |

|---|
| noglorp | lemme try running it again | 00:15 |
|---|

| aLeSD_ | cyban: do u know if the 8.10 will work with the 2.6.26 kernel tree ? and if the problem is solved ? | 00:23 |
|---|
| cyban | I dont know the command, but if your on the live CD and its there and working then you just need the driver information that it is currently using so you can install it over the faulty upgrade | 00:24 |
|---|
| erUSUL | aLeSD_: 8.10 will use 2.6.27 | 00:24 |
|---|
| bobertdos | TiTsAnDaSS: no problem | 00:24 |

|---|
| Mr_Fixit | emorris, so what then?? before they were all owned y my primary user.. | 00:31 |
|---|
| erUSUL | Mr_Fixit: you can change permisisions/ownership recursively to a dir and all its contents | 00:31 |
|---|
| Mr_Fixit | now it's all root | 00:31 |
|---|
| candive | Hi all, | 00:31 |

| Mr_Fixit | but each directory has to be changed?? | 00:31 |
|---|
| erUSUL | Mr_Fixit: "sudo chown -R youruser:youruser folder" | 00:31 |
|---|
| DasE1 | HollywoodJumper: a app for dld a torrent | 00:31 |

| erUSUL | Mr_Fixit: yes every dir | 00:32 |
|---|
| emorris | Mr_Fixit: sudo chown -R /the/top/dir | 00:32 |
|---|
| Mr_Fixit | or could i chage like /~/user and expect it to happen all the way down the tree? | 00:32 |
|---|
| emorris | Mr_Fixit: ignore me, do what erUSUL said | 00:32 |
|---|
| candive | When I insert a DVD Movie it plays in Spanish? I am english how do I set english only please. Thank you. | 00:32 |

| genii | houman_132: Some quads are 32 bit and some quads are 64 bit. Look up the chip model to find out what it is | 00:49 |

|---|
| DasE1 | hollywoodjumper:k,np, but do that meanwhile | 00:53 |
|---|
| unop | justin_, hmm, i don't think hubs are either - they just propagate the electric signal from the port they are connected on. So it's essentially down to the controller. | 00:54 |
|---|
| DasE1 | ponzerelli:go ahead | 00:54 |
|---|
| HollywoodJumper | DasE1 ok | 00:54 |

|---|
| justin_ | unop: ok. My friend got me a newer version of the one I already had for my birthday. I was debating on wether to take it back or not. The other one sure slowed down file transfers to/from my flash drives. Is that normal with a hub? | 00:55 |

| OoRal | My printer isn't working. It's just saying "Error while printing" in Open Office. Yes, it's set up to print to that printer, it is plugged in and on. (It's a Canon MP210) | 00:56 |

|---|
| ponzerelli | SasE1: are you talking about checking it with the Md5Sum program? | 00:57 |
|---|
| jfxd | xbxb: cd to the directory and sudo umount -l /dirname | 00:57 |

|---|
| xbxbxb | jfxd: thanks | 00:58 |
|---|

| CorbinFox | is there any way at all to get the version of pidgin that ships with 7.10 installed on 8.04? i havent been able to find the package for it | 01:02 |

| WinterWeaver | riyonuk you have to install the extra configuration settings | 01:03 |
|---|
| OoRal | riyonuk: Right click on your desktop changer in the right hand corner and select preferences | 01:03 |

| reya276 | is there anyway to enable my desktop effects , I already installed xserver-xgl but not working | 01:04 |
|---|
| WinterWeaver | riyonuk, first follow what Ooral mentioned... activate extra effffects under the visual effects tab | 01:04 |
|---|
| * OoRal beats up her printer. >:( | 01:04 |
| riyonuk | I found it, it's under General > Desktop Size | 01:04 |
|---|
| WinterWeaver | riyonuk, then you need to install the compiz settings manager... just go "Applications >> Add/Remove >> search for compiz, and it should be the first option in the list | 01:05 |
|---|
| sabalord | wnload a better chess program | 01:05 |
|---|
| OoRal | I need to print off an assignment, help me. -_- | 01:05 |
|---|
| WinterWeaver | riyonuk, The compiz settings manager is where you can manage the number of sides on the cube, and enable all sorts of different effects and options | 01:05 |
|---|
| riyonuk | what's the difference between horizontal and vertical size? | 01:06 |
|---|
| cy21 | hey.... i am running vista right now.... | 01:06 |

|---|
| cy21 | thiebaude, what's better..dvd or cd? | 01:07 |
|---|
| OoRal | riyonuk: Yep. | 01:07 |

| CorbinFox | is there any way at all to get the version of pidgin that ships with 7.10 installed on 8.04? i havent been able to find the package for it, and I cant stand the latest pidgin. (Why did they take away resizing the text box?) | 01:07 |
|---|
| thiebaude | cy21:i use cd because i dont have a dvd player | 01:07 |
|---|
| riyonuk | I thought it meant I could do the cube up | 01:07 |
|---|
| cy21 | thiebaude, but do u know the difference? | 01:07 |
|---|
| riyonuk | What's the thing I'm doing now? I press Ctrl + Alt + Down, and it zooms out (Very cool btw) | 01:08 |
|---|
| _paneb | what are some popular choices for performing high-quality rips (for personal use) of DVDs? | 01:08 |
|---|
| OoRal | riyonuk: You'll have to install Compiz as WinterWeaver said. | 01:08 |
|---|
| cy21 | anyone know the difference between ubuntu 8.04 cd and dvd? what should i install....??? i am a Web developer | 01:08 |
|---|
| riyonuk | I have compiz, I'm doing the cube XD | 01:08 |
|---|
| thiebaude | cy21:all i know is dvd holds more data | 01:08 |
|---|
| OoRal | riyonuk: Well there you go. ;) I don't use the cube so that shortcut didn't do anything for me | 01:08 |
|---|
| thiebaude | cy21:do you have the live cd? | 01:08 |

|---|
| riyonuk | I'm in love with this | 01:09 |

| Bionic_Apple | Alright, I tested Openbox to see why it was closing spontaneously, and I got the errors here: http://pastebin.com/d2520a9b8 . Can anyone help? | 01:09 |

| Ab0luteBeginner | QUESTION: i connect to X from a remote windows PC using xming - i managed it to work at least. I am using GNOME Desktop. My Problem is, that if im about to LOGOUT using the lil logout-applet in the upper right corner (red symbol) it takes about 30 secs or so until the logout gui appears... some suggestions ?? | 01:09 |
|---|
| OoRal | cy21: I tend to use the alternate CD, it uses less RAM to install but is less user friendly | 01:09 |
|---|
| thiebaude | cy21:do you want to dual boot? | 01:09 |
|---|
| cy21 | OoRal, as a live cd? | 01:10 |
|---|
| OoRal | riyonuk: Yup. ;) I didn't much like Vista Aero... and the best part? Not as much RAM usage! | 01:10 |

|---|
| riyonuk | What effect is it where you hover over a bottom tab, and it shows a little box preview thingi | 01:10 |
|---|
| kelder | riyonuk: if you install "compizconfig-settings-manager" you can tweak all the settings or add other effects | 01:10 |
|---|
| OoRal | cy21: Nah, it's a seperate disc image | 01:10 |
|---|
| riyonuk | Yeah, kelder, that's exactly what I'm using | 01:10 |
|---|
| riyonuk | Just don't know which effect does what :P | 01:10 |

|---|
| OoRal | !away | 01:11 |
|---|
| ubottu | You should avoid noisy away messages in a busy channel like #ubuntu, or other Ubuntu channels; it causes excessive scrolling which is unfair to new users. Use the command "/away <reason>" to set your client away silently. See also «/msg ubottu Guidelines» | 01:11 |
|---|
| cy21 | qwm , i am a web developer.. will dvd help me more? what's the difference? | 01:11 |
|---|
| thiebaude | cy21:im not sure | 01:12 |
|---|
| DARKGuy | anybody has problems with flash playing audio for like a minute or two then -all- ubuntu's audio just goes poof until I restart pulseaudio again ? | 01:12 |
|---|
| qwm | cy21: there's no difference. | 01:12 |
|---|
| riyonuk | Oh XD | 01:12 |
|---|
| OoRal | Seeya. :) Glad you got it working, riyonuk | 01:12 |

| riyonuk | On ubuntu, what does the windows key do? | 01:12 |
|---|
| DARKGuy | nothing | 01:12 |
|---|
| thiebaude | cy21:i thought dvd holds more data than a cd | 01:12 |
|---|
| DARKGuy | it isn't an Ubuntu key | 01:12 |
|---|
| DARKGuy | :P | 01:12 |
|---|
| jrib | cy21: they're the same. The dvd just has all of the main repository on it | 01:12 |
|---|
| DARKGuy | you can map it tho. | 01:13 |
|---|
| OoRal | riyonuk: If you set it up, you can hold it down to move windows by their contents | 01:13 |
|---|
| thiebaude | jrib:k | 01:13 |
|---|
| riyonuk | What do you mean? I was going to set it up for an effect | 01:13 |

| cy21 | anyone? | 01:26 |

|---|
| DasE1 | HollywoodJumper: a torrent is a peer to peer app, same in win | 01:26 |
|---|
| HollywoodJumper | DasE1 yes | 01:27 |
|---|
| JaseX | ... you can't just convert a partition cy21 | 01:27 |
|---|
| genii | cy21: What filesystem is currently on it? | 01:27 |
|---|
| cy21 | JaseX, how? | 01:27 |
|---|
| JaseX | back up the data, and then reformat the partition, and re-copy the data. | 01:27 |
|---|
| HollywoodJumper | DasE1 i ran sudo apt-get install ktorrent | 01:27 |
|---|
| cy21 | genii, ntfs | 01:27 |
|---|
| JaseX | cy21 that is highly improbably. | 01:27 |
|---|
| JaseX | improbable* | 01:27 |
|---|
| cy21 | JaseX, i was trying to avoid that | 01:27 |
|---|
| valros | if there is one, what is the SIW equivalent in linux, anyone know of a good one, particularly on cpu | 01:27 |
|---|
| valros | info | 01:28 |
|---|
| JaseX | You cannot just change a partition filesystem cy21 | 01:28 |
|---|
| JaseX | That's like trying to convert a female into a true male. | 01:28 |

| cy21 | JaseX, i don't have an operating system on it... it should be ok | 01:28 |
|---|
| HollywoodJumper | DasE1 ok | 01:28 |
|---|
| genii | cy21: Then JaseX is right. Need to offload the files first someplace before you can change the fs since you'll need to change partition type to linux and then format to ext3 or so. Then to copy the files back | 01:28 |
|---|
| JaseX | ... Not exactly, you will have to lose all data on it, to change afilesystem requires formatting it. | 01:28 |
|---|
| JaseX | cy21 what you want to do cannot be done... by any operating system. | 01:29 |
|---|
| cy21 | ok... thanks guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | 01:29 |

| pirofwil | QUESTION: Im running current version 8.04 and for some reason my amd turion 64 X2 processor laptop is only running on one processor is there a fix? I dont want to change to 64 bit due to package availability compatibility issues, unless i have to. ANYONE know? | 01:30 |
|---|
| JaseX | flash48: go to system>properties>appearance, and click the effects tab. | 01:30 |
|---|
| JaseX | pirofwil: I run 64 bit fine with no package issues, what programs do you use that suffer this incompatibility? | 01:31 |
|---|
| genii | pirofwil: The default kernel should be already SMP enabled. Did you install another kernel like -rt or such? | 01:31 |
|---|
| flash48 | JaseX: already tried that and it says 'Desktop effects not enabled' | 01:31 |
|---|
| JaseX | there should be three options flash48 | 01:31 |
|---|
| JaseX | and check the second or bottom option... also make sure your card can do all that. | 01:31 |
|---|
| pirofwil | jasex I find that predefined package availibility is very poor for 64 bit | 01:32 |

| Bob_Dole | So, I'm interning at a school. I'm tasked with setting up a few PC's(or a full computer lab) of older computers all running linux. Perhaps the most important thing I need is sandboxing, so nothing saved on the machines is there after a reboot. | 02:57 |

| edo32mb | danbh_intrepid>> Okay, i heard myself momentarily -, but now it a) won't let me hear myself again, b) tells me that my capture settings are invalid (for sound recorder), and all that fun stuff. | 02:57 |
|---|
| jamesish | Bob_Dole: you could run straight from a live CD. | 02:57 |
|---|
| danbh_intrepid | edo32mb: all in gstreamer-properties? | 02:58 |
|---|
| Bob_Dole | 128MB of RAM at best | 02:58 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | Bob_Dole: Use a tmpfs for /home :) | 02:58 |
|---|
| stgove | If you want to RAID5 those 36 gig drives, get yourself a small HD 910) megs, one of two the install the OS and RAID5 the 36 gig drives | 02:58 |
|---|
| edo32mb | a) in gstreamer-properties. b) when i try to open the sound-recorder app | 02:58 |
|---|
| stgove | unless you want the OS on those drives too | 02:58 |
|---|
| edo32mb | danbh_intrepid>> | 02:58 |

| Newuser1111 | What's wrong? (/usr/bin/vmware-cmd: Could not connect to VM /home/djk/VM/VMware/PC-BSD/PC-BSD.vmx) | 02:58 |
|---|
| Riyonuk | What program is this? The dock thingi? http://hellsdark.deviantart.com/art/24-03-08-Back-to-stripes-80874847 | 02:58 |
|---|
| Bob_Dole | And I'm somewhat expected to have a naming scheme and name them all something different following that scheme on the network. | 02:58 |
|---|
| ryan__ | unop: ok but I want to open Firefox to a specific webiste. For example, yahoo.com | 02:59 |
|---|
| danbh_intrepid | edo32mb: sounds lika bug : ( | 02:59 |
|---|
| stgove | Take care all, have a good night! | 02:59 |
|---|
| unop | ryan__, right, so your keyword here is yahoo.com | 02:59 |

| ganymede | hi, i can't seem to find out which texlive package contains the tikz package. i keep getting a tikz,sty not found error when i try to compile my document with pdflatex, at the line where i do \usepackage{tikz} | 02:59 |

| stgove | Thanks everyone! | 02:59 |
|---|
| Titanus | At this point I'm just wondering if ubuntu will recognize it as a hard drive or not | 02:59 |
|---|
| h4xx0r | newuser1111: hmm that's odd... has it worked before? or is this fresh from installation? | 03:00 |
|---|
| Titanus | gnight stgove | 03:00 |
|---|
| edo32mb | danbh_intrepid>> a bug in what, exactly? the alsa drivers, and whatnot? I'm using the alsa-*-1.0.18rc3 | 03:00 |
|---|
| Newuser1111 | It hasn't worked before. | 03:00 |
|---|
| poia | poia | 03:00 |
|---|
| kris | kris | 03:00 |
|---|
| ryan__ | unop: that does not work | 03:00 |
|---|
| jamesish | Titanus: sometimes it'll recognise the hardware RAID, sometimes not. If it doesn't, you can still let a hardware RAID controller manage the RAID and then use the logical volume manager to present the drives as a single file system. | 03:00 |
|---|
| unop | ryan__, firefox -new-window yahoo.com | 03:01 |
|---|
| jamesish | Titanus: the biggest problem is with onboard RAID on the motherboard; I heard LInus doesn't think it's stable enough, so he ensures it's intentionally ignored. Or some such nonsense. | 03:01 |
|---|
| Riyonuk | Nobody knows :( | 03:01 |
|---|
| Titanus | my raid controller is not onboard, it is an adaptec 2120 | 03:01 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | my exp with raid and linux never used to be that great - having to program the drivers and do a 5 line command just to get red hat 7 to see the drive was a pain | 03:01 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | lol | 03:01 |
|---|
| jamesish | Riyonuk: I've used that before, I just can't remember the name. I found it via the openbox website, though. They have a list of various dock-type applications that are compatible available. Check 'em out. | 03:02 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | now with ubuntu its much better | 03:02 |
|---|
| Riyonuk | avant? | 03:02 |
|---|
| Riyonuk | or whatever | 03:02 |
|---|
| unop | RichiH, might be AWN | 03:02 |
|---|
| jamesish | Titanus: just try it out! unless there's real data at stake. | 03:02 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | and howdy all | 03:02 |
|---|
| ryan__ | unop: thank you soooo much. | 03:02 |
|---|
| unop | Riyonuk, sorry.. that was for you <unop> RichiH, might be AWN | 03:02 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | I've never had issues with RAID on Linux, whether dmraid (aka FakeRAID), mdraid,, mdadm or hardware | 03:02 |
|---|
| Titanus | I have the data backed up so it's all good. I'll have to try it and see if it works | 03:03 |
|---|
| Newuser1111 | It has not worked before, I have not gotten anything to run on VMware yet(in Ubuntu) | 03:03 |
|---|
| edo32mb | danbh_intrepid>> okay, somehow my mic volume was reset suddenly. raise the volume and i hear myself in gstreamer-properties | 03:03 |
|---|
| danbh_intrepid | edo32mb: well, I think its a bug in whatever driver you are selecting in gstreamer-properties. So, if its messing up when you select alsa, then its alsa. But, Im not too sure. Im confused on sound/pulseaudio/alsa in general | 03:03 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | Titanus: This might give you some insights: http://tjworld.net/wiki/Linux/Ubuntu/HardyRAID5EncryptedLVM | 03:04 |

| ben_ | i got a game installed and the play file is there but when i click it, all it does is change the resolution to the game's and then quit out | 03:04 |
|---|
| Titanus | ty Int! | 03:04 |
|---|
| kris | hmmm | 03:05 |
|---|
| kupesoft | Is there any way to get the resolution of a video at the command line? | 03:05 |
|---|
| ben_ | not that i know of | 03:05 |
|---|
| danbh_intrepid | edo32mb: hmmmm,, I ran into a problem where the mic was automatically reducing volume when it was saturating (ie too loud). So, the closer my mouth to the mic, the quieter it got. The only way I could get it louder was to actually back away from the mic | 03:05 |
|---|
| ben_ | im pretty new to ubuntu | 03:05 |
|---|
| edo32mb | danbh_intrepid>> but now i still have that "audio settings are invalid, please correct them in multimedia settings" error when trying to open sound recorder | 03:06 |
|---|
| ben_ | i cxan get some games to install but no games can play. is there anything i can do to straight up play windows games? | 03:06 |
|---|
| danbh_intrepid | edo32mb: so it works in gstreamer-props? and you leave it on the setting that works? | 03:06 |
|---|
| ben_ | what? | 03:07 |
|---|
| DasEi | ubuntu_loki:? | 03:07 |
|---|
| Riyonuk | how do I know which version of ubuntu I'm running and wether it's 32 or 64bit? | 03:07 |
|---|
| danbh_intrepid | Riyonuk: uname -a | 03:07 |
|---|
| kris | which parts of system can I put away? | 03:07 |
|---|
| kris | uninstall? | 03:07 |
|---|
| unop | !version | Riyonuk | 03:07 |
|---|
| Riyonuk | ugh, I wish I could press a button and the command thing come up | 03:07 |
|---|
| ubottu | Riyonuk: To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type « lsb_release -a » in a !shell | 03:07 |
|---|
| Riyonuk | :| | 03:07 |
|---|
| edo32mb | danbh_intrepid>> yes - gstreamer-props work, and i do leave those settings in place | 03:08 |
|---|
| raul1 | i just installed SaurBraten, and when it stats it's just a black screen anyone know why?? | 03:08 |
|---|
| kris | what is unnecesary? | 03:08 |
|---|
| unop | Riyonuk, to find out architecture. dpkg --print-architecture | 03:08 |
|---|
| raul1 | also happends with Nexuiz | 03:08 |
|---|
| Riyonuk | i386 | 03:08 |
|---|
| Riyonuk | 8.04 | 03:08 |
|---|
| danbh_intrepid | edo32mb: maybe there are actual multimedia settings in sound recorder that you can adjust, and thats what you need to do, dunno | 03:08 |
|---|
| Riyonuk | so...32? | 03:08 |
|---|
| Bob_Dole | Sounds like an OpenGL issue | 03:08 |
|---|
| unop | Riyonuk, yep | 03:08 |
|---|
| raul1 | armyops is open GL | 03:08 |
|---|
| gabmed | my php mail used to work, applications in php like mantis does not report any error, but the mail never arrives! | 03:09 |

| raul1 | works perfectly fine, amazingly fine | 03:09 |

| Strang3r_ | hey guys :) | 03:09 |
|---|
| aLeSD_ | hi all | 03:09 |
|---|
| Strang3r_ | I just installed Wine | 03:09 |
|---|
| jamiejackson | i'm getting an error from java: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2 <-- i think i just need to create a symlink as this to some other libstdc module. not sure what to point to and where. anybody know what i'm talking about? | 03:09 |
|---|
| Strang3r_ | but the workspace is too smalll | 03:09 |
|---|
| indrora | Hey! found a chunk of incompatible hardware!!! the MSI (ATI) radeon 9550 SE cards DONT WORK with OpenGL as they should | 03:09 |
|---|
| Strang3r_ | can somebody tell me how to make it bigger ? | 03:09 |
|---|
| ben_ | I installed battlefield 2 and nfs pro with wine under ubuntu. nfs pro doesn't have a shortcut to play in the menu and bf2 just changes my resolution and crashes | 03:09 |
|---|
| edo32mb | danbh_intrepid>> I can't even open sound recorder. It pops the error up and exits before even loading the rest of the app | 03:09 |
|---|
| aLeSD_ | I have my old hd with my home folder and I want to copy the ubuntu files on my new home | 03:09 |
|---|
| jamiejackson | this old article describes the process, but the installed module mentioned is obsolete, and i need help: http://ubuntu-linux-dell-inspiron-9400.blogspot.com/2006/08/sun-jdk131.html | 03:09 |
|---|
| Newuser1111 | Also I have VMware Server 1.0.6 build-91891 | 03:09 |
|---|
| aLeSD_ | someone knows how to recover all my datas ? | 03:10 |
|---|
| raul1 | ben_ what you need to know is wine dosnt emulate everything | 03:10 |
|---|
| ben_ | i figured | 03:10 |
|---|
| raul1 | it probably crashes because it's not supporetd | 03:10 |
|---|
| gabmed | my php mail used to work, applications in php like mantis does not report any error, but the mail never arrives! | 03:10 |
|---|
| ben_ | so i just cant play those games | 03:10 |
|---|
| Strang3r_ | aLeSD ? | 03:10 |
|---|
| Strang3r_ | can u tell me if u have the wine windows on fullscreen ? | 03:10 |
|---|
| DasEi | aLeSD_: on hary now ? | 03:10 |
|---|
| DasEi | hardy* | 03:10 |
|---|
| ben_ | straight up cant play them? | 03:10 |
|---|
| raul1 | Ben_ America's army is very nice graphics | 03:10 |
|---|
| sumo_su | ben_: for halfway modern games you should install windows on your system | 03:10 |
|---|
| danbh_intrepid | edo32mb: audacity is another option. Its more advanced than sound recorder. Other than trying that, I have no idea. It sounds like a sound recorder bug, but really, what do I know. I really dont | 03:11 |
|---|
| raul1 | it's for ubuntu. | 03:11 |
|---|
| ben_ | i thought i was sharing windows and ubuntu but i couldnt get back to windows | 03:11 |
|---|
| Bob_Dole | wine doesn't just crash because it isn't supported.. it crashes because not enough of its parts are working. | 03:11 |
|---|
| raul1 | very nice graphics works on linux/mac/windows | 03:11 |
|---|
| aLeSD_ | DasEi I have 8.04 | 03:11 |
|---|
| aLeSD_ | yes hardy | 03:11 |
|---|
| raul1 | ben_ when "grub loading" hit the key it shows | 03:11 |
|---|
| raul1 | right before ubuntu starts if thats the case. | 03:11 |
|---|
| DasEi | aLeSD_: old drive attached to that pc ? | 03:11 |
|---|
| ben_ | press esc for menu | 03:11 |
|---|
| aLeSD_ | yes I can access to the dir | 03:11 |
|---|
| ben_ | i do that but i dont see vista | 03:11 |
|---|
| aLeSD_ | DasEi | 03:11 |
|---|
| ben_ | i see 3 different ubuntus | 03:11 |
|---|
| raul1 | well you see | 03:11 |
|---|
| edo32mb | danbh_intrepid>> audacity isn't my friend either | 03:11 |
|---|
| raul1 | vista for 1 fails... | 03:11 |
|---|
| Bob_Dole | Now, I'm off to figure out tmpfs on a VM. | 03:11 |
|---|
| raul1 | vista wants power.. | 03:12 |
|---|
| jamiejackson | anybody know their way around libstdc++ packages? | 03:12 |
|---|
| ben_ | i think i just want to give up on ubuntu | 03:12 |
|---|
| DasEi | aLeSD_: paste the out from :fdisk -l | 03:12 |
|---|
| raul1 | well u killed windows vista | 03:12 |
|---|
| raul1 | so your stuck unless you have bootable disks | 03:12 |
|---|
| ben_ | oh great | 03:12 |
|---|
| ben_ | ahha | 03:12 |
|---|
| === caplink811-log is now known as caplink811_log |
| raul1 | well theres one way | 03:12 |
|---|
| sumo_su | ben_: is visa on another partition? | 03:13 |
|---|
| raul1 | he messed up the partitioning | 03:13 |
|---|
| sumo_su | vista | 03:13 |
|---|
| sumo_su | oh he did? | 03:13 |
|---|
| h4xx0r | Newuser1111: sorry i had to step away for a few minutes... did you get your issue fixed? | 03:13 |
|---|
| kris | I have no room on hdd | 03:13 |
|---|
| aLeSD_ | DasEi: really I have another dir in the /home with another name ... I mean I just moved the oldhome to reset the programs conf files | 03:13 |
|---|
| kris | what can i do with it? | 03:13 |
|---|
| Newuser1111 | No. | 03:13 |
|---|
| jamesish | If Windows Vista still exists, he can work it out by editing menu.lst | 03:13 |
|---|
| gabmed | can someone help me? | 03:13 |
|---|
| DasEi | aLeSD_: bad idea | 03:13 |
|---|
| raul1 | jamesish: he messed up in the partitioner | 03:14 |
|---|
| hml | i'm on a mac book pro; i have to use max osx (want to try out the iphone dev kit); is there anyway i can still pull in ubuntu packages? | 03:14 |
|---|
| DasEi | !ask | gabmed | 03:14 |
|---|
| ubottu | gabmed: Please don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-) | 03:14 |

| === Soviet_Bob is now known as Bob_Dole |
| aLeSD_ | :( | 03:14 |
|---|
| aLeSD_ | DasEi: is it possible to recover it ? | 03:14 |
|---|
| Bob_Dole | Bob Do-- wut | 03:14 |
|---|
| jamesish | raul1: I believe, reading the symptoms, that you're correct. But I wanted to throw it out there. | 03:14 |
|---|
| DasEi | aLeSD_: bader idea to use its config, but u can save your files | 03:14 |
|---|
| gabmed | I did ask, but nobody awnsered | 03:14 |
|---|
| gabmed | i'll ask again then | 03:15 |
|---|
| Newuser1111 | I did not get VMware fixed, | 03:15 |
|---|
| DasEi | aLeSD_: you could think of dual boot | 03:15 |
|---|
| Bob_Dole | I use virtualbox mostly. | 03:15 |
|---|
| aLeSD_ | DasEi: what do u mean ? | 03:15 |
|---|
| Newuser1111 | I've been trying for a week. | 03:15 |
|---|
| kris | can anybody help to have any free memory on hdd ? | 03:15 |
|---|
| gabmed | my php mail used to work, applications in php like mantis does not report any error when it should send mail, but the mail never arrives! It works from command line (sendmail) | 03:15 |
|---|
| kris | on my hddd | 03:15 |
|---|
| h4xx0r | newuser1111: have you tried booting a different VM? | 03:15 |
|---|
| Newuser1111 | Yes. | 03:15 |
|---|
| kris | there is no space left | 03:15 |
|---|
| h4xx0r | same issue? | 03:15 |
|---|
| aLeSD_ | so ... there is no possibility to copy the dirs and start simply evolution ? | 03:15 |
|---|
| Newuser1111 | Yes. | 03:16 |
|---|
| jamesish | gabmed: What's changed, then? If things work from the command line, it's something about your app or php itself. | 03:16 |
|---|
| jamiejackson | kris: i like filelight for showing me where my big garbage files are | 03:16 |
|---|
| DasEi | !trash|kris | 03:16 |
|---|
| ubottu | kris: The location of Trash has changed in 8.04, it is now located in ~/.local/share/Trash | Looking for the trash in previous versions: ~/.Trash | 03:16 |
|---|
| h4xx0r | newuser1111: when you ran that command earlier, was that as your user or root? | 03:17 |
|---|
| gabmed | jamesish: just normal updates from repositories, all app stopped to send mail | 03:17 |
|---|
| kris | jamiejackson: i have only installed ubuntu and patches that's all | 03:17 |
|---|
| nxmehta | how do i print out the current cpu temperature and clock rate (if it's throttled)? | 03:17 |
|---|
| DasEi | aLeSD_: you can save files, but not the /etc, so the config | 03:17 |
|---|
| Newuser1111 | Both user and root(sudo) | 03:17 |
|---|
| gabmed | jamesish: what could i check? | 03:17 |
|---|
| jamesish | gabmed: have you read any available logs to see whether the mail is being received by the mailer? Have you checked into what regularl updates have been pushed down since it broke? | 03:17 |
|---|
| jamiejackson | kris, try the trash route first, then you could try "sudo apt-get install filelight" | 03:18 |

|---|
| Newuser1111 | I've restarted my computer, does that count? | 03:18 |
|---|
| dmsuperman | jamesish: dmesg has nothing related to it | 03:19 |
|---|
| dmsuperman | jamesish: Where else? | 03:19 |
|---|
| jamesish | gabmed: where does your mailer log to? | 03:19 |
|---|
| DasEi | kris: also see man du | 03:19 |
|---|
| kris | i only wanted to know | 03:19 |
|---|
| jamesish | dmsuperman: try out /var/log/messages, that's normally a good place to start. Otherwise, check the other logs in /var/log/ | 03:19 |
|---|
| Xcerca | whats the command for shutdown ? | 03:19 |

| dmsuperman | jamesish: Nothing | 03:20 |

| jamiejackson | are you looking for a smaller distro, kris? | 03:20 |

| danbh_intrepid | kris: I can suggest a few commands... sudo apt-get clean for starters | 03:20 |
|---|
| kris | jamiejackon: maybe | 03:20 |
|---|
| jamesish | dmsuperman: have you read the pulse init.d script to see if there's anything in there you're meant to be setting up? | 03:21 |
|---|
| Newuser1111 | If restarting the computer doesn't count, then how do I restart VMware? | 03:21 |
|---|
| kris | danbh : i have no free space on hdd | 03:21 |

| mojo | h4xx0r: that's the erlang one? not too familiar with it but i can check it out | 03:21 |
|---|
| danbh_intrepid | kris: yes, but how did that happen? | 03:21 |
|---|
| === jetx is now known as jetscreamer |
| h4xx0r | well restarting the computer would've restarted vmware so we'll count it.. but in case you need it in the future... sudo /etc/init.d/vmware | 03:21 |
|---|
| kris | danbh: I installed system and patches | 03:22 |

| dmsuperman | jamesish: I don't see anything, but I'm not the most informed shell scripter. Do you have hardy? | 03:22 |
|---|
| kris | and tried to add some other packges | 03:22 |
|---|
| jamesish | dmsuperman: as it happens, I do. | 03:22 |
|---|
| jamesish | dmsuperman: but I'm running server; it's pulseaudio, you say? | 03:22 |

| danbh_intrepid | kris: well, you should probably remove those packages, and run the command I gave ya. Wo, thats small | 03:22 |
|---|
| Newuser1111 | So Now I've restarted vmware. | 03:22 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | Thats odd I just tried sudo apt/dpkg with yahoo mesenger and both wont work | 03:23 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | even with dependencies | 03:23 |
|---|
| dmsuperman | jamesish: Aye | 03:23 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | might have to purge it | 03:23 |
|---|
| dmsuperman | jamesish: It's odd, I get no errors, but it just doesn't start. It's not in my running process list, and nothing can connect to it | 03:23 |
|---|
| ivan | i'm install 8.04.1 x64 inside vmware, with XFS inside LVM, and it seems to slow to a crawl during install, during the pre-"Select and install software" phase | 03:23 |
|---|
| ivan | is that likely to be an XFS issue? | 03:23 |
|---|
| jamesish | dmsuperman: pretty common for a misconfigured daemon. It takes time to get used to them. | 03:23 |
|---|
| h4xx0r | newuser1111: is this a VM you created, or an appliance you downloaded | 03:23 |
|---|
| Newuser1111 | Created it. | 03:24 |
|---|
| ryan__ | When a website says run the Debian package, what does that mean? | 03:24 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | brb | 03:24 |
|---|
| raul1 | when i run SaurBraten its just a black screen happends with nexiuz too anyone know why? | 03:24 |
|---|
| h4xx0r | ivan: i use xfs inside lvm pretty much every time i install ubuntu, i've not had that issue | 03:25 |
|---|
| tjay | ryan__: It means (or I think means) they offer a ".deb" file, which will automatically install the software you're needing. | 03:25 |
|---|
| Xcerca | init 6 is restart | 03:25 |
|---|
| jamiejackson | kris, i think you might want a smaller distro. puppylinux comes to mind, or damn small linux, or one of those tiny distros. 3GB is puny | 03:25 |
|---|
| Xcerca | is there a way to make a program run at start as su ? | 03:25 |
|---|
| kris | danbh : yes it is | 03:25 |
|---|
| ivan | h4xx0r: thanks, i'll look at my broken vmware | 03:25 |
|---|
| kris | danbh: i will try the command | 03:25 |
|---|
| jamesish | dmsuperman: have you tried pulseaudio -D ? | 03:25 |
|---|
| === funkyHat is now known as funkyHat|off |
| tjay | ryan__: Although there are other options, using ".deb" files is usally the prefered method of installing software on Ubuntu, because it is based on DEBiaian. | 03:25 |
|---|
| Newuser1111 | Would it work any better if I downloaded it instead of making it? | 03:26 |
|---|
| ryan__ | tjay: well when I click on the deb install file it just takes me to some unreadable code. Please Help. | 03:26 |
|---|
| dmsuperman | jamesish: It's running now, but still not accepting connections | 03:26 |
|---|
| h4xx0r | newuser1111: i doubt it | 03:26 |
|---|
| jamesish | dmsuperman: That's all the init.d script calls; read the options from man pulseaudio and also read the script again in start-stop-daemon line in pulseaudio to see how the maintainers are using it. | 03:27 |
|---|
| dmsuperman | jamesish: Hrm, nevermind it was just that app | 03:27 |
|---|
| ryan__ | tjay: here is the link http://eion.robbmob.com/ | 03:27 |
|---|
| h4xx0r | newuser1111: what version of ubuntu are you on? | 03:27 |
|---|
| Newuser1111 | 8.04 | 03:27 |
|---|
| kris | thx | 03:27 |
|---|
| jamesish | dmsuperman: so you're doing a little better now? | 03:27 |
|---|
| dmsuperman | jamesish: Odd, pulseaudio -D works now =S | 03:28 |
|---|
| dmsuperman | jamesish: A little, at least I can get it running out of a terminal :P | 03:28 |
|---|
| jamesish | dmsuperman: awesome. Read the man page, some useful info in there. | 03:28 |

| Centinti | Hey I need help | 03:29 |
|---|
| ryan__ | tjay: trying to install the pidgin skype plugin | 03:29 |
|---|
| jamesish | Shoot from the hip, Centinti | 03:29 |
|---|
| tjay | ryan__: hold on a sec, let me check something. | 03:29 |
|---|
| ryan__ | tjay: having a problem understanding what to do with skype4pidgin.deb on the link that I gave you | 03:29 |
|---|
| Centinti | I need help | 03:30 |
|---|
| jamesish | !ask | Centinti | 03:30 |

|---|
| sysdoc | Has anyone tried the 2.6.27 kernel on a laptop? | 03:30 |
|---|
| dmsuperman | jamesish: Hrm...it works with pulseaudio -D but not using the init.d script. It appears to be logging somewhere using log_begin_msg. Any idea what that is or where it's written to? | 03:30 |
|---|
| Centinti | I have a AMD Turion 64 x2 Mobile processor, do i get the 64 bit desktop version of ubuntu or the regular? | 03:30 |
|---|
| ryan__ | billstei: ok so just do sudo apt-get GDebi | 03:30 |
|---|
| tjay | ryan__: download the file to your desktop & install it from there. Just double click it. | 03:31 |
|---|
| h4xx0r | newuser1111: try this: sudo chown <username> /home/<username>/.vmware/preferences | 03:31 |
|---|
| billstei | you might already have it. Look in the System Tools menu | 03:31 |
|---|
| kris | i tried command sudo apt-get clean and nothing happend | 03:31 |
|---|
| h4xx0r | where username is your username on the system... and then try starting your VM again | 03:31 |
|---|
| === Guest14027 is now known as Brucee |
| genii | Centinti: It's a 64 bit cpu. So either will work | 03:31 |
|---|
| tritium | ryan__, billstei: ubuntu-desktop depends on gdebi. It should be installed. | 03:31 |
|---|
| lucax | i need to change default desktop after installing kde on ubuntu... how can i do that? | 03:31 |
|---|
| Centinti | What would be better though? | 03:31 |
|---|
| kris | haxxor: are talking to me? | 03:31 |
|---|
| kris | u>? | 03:32 |
|---|
| jamesish | dmsuperman: it's logging to syslog, which is the default. | 03:32 |
|---|
| h4xx0r | kris: no sorry that was for newuser1111 | 03:32 |
|---|
| Newuser1111 | Ok, now what? | 03:32 |
|---|
| billstei | ryan__: also the System Tools menu might have the icon disabled so that you have it but you can't see the icon there | 03:32 |
|---|
| genii | Centinti: 64 bit install should be fine | 03:32 |
|---|
| sysdoc | locax: at login select the session to log into | 03:32 |
|---|
| Centinti | Ok, I just ordered the CDs | 03:32 |
|---|
| kris | i still don't know what to do | 03:32 |
|---|
| h4xx0r | newuser1111: try starting the vm again | 03:32 |

|---|
| dmsuperman | jamesish: But nothing shows up in syslog about it | 03:33 |

| ryan__ | Seriously, I love this community so much tjay and others thanks so much. | 03:33 |

| tsukasa | hey guys, im trying to remember the name of this system file... it consists of like 6 words on a single line and specifies the order to look for installed stuff | 03:34 |
|---|
| billstei | ryan__: an alternate way to install a deb is from the command line like this: dpkg -i skype4pidgin.deb | 03:34 |
|---|
| Newuser1111 | OK. | 03:34 |
|---|
| ryan__ | billstei: awesome thanks | 03:35 |
|---|
| dr3mro | any one know here how to fix pixelated video full screen | 03:35 |
|---|
| billstei | ryan__: correction like this: sudo dpkg -i skype4pidgin.deb | 03:35 |
|---|
| esac | is there a way i can 'overdrive' the volume if i am playing something that was recorded too quietly | 03:35 |
|---|
| saintbob | firefox won't load msnbc and a few other sites when konqueror loads fine whats up can't get flash to work in konquror? | 03:35 |

| tjay | I need help finding a driver for a Sony Vaio Internal Webcam, Model: VGP-VCC6, anyone have any ideas? | 03:36 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | esac: If using pulseaudio, the pavucontrol can do that | 03:36 |
|---|
| esac | IntuitiveNipple: ill check that out, thanks | 03:36 |
|---|
| ryan__ | billstei: if you do that command where should you download skyp4pidgin.deb to? Or do you even have to do that? | 03:36 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | tjay: Yes, my r5u870 package :) | 03:36 |
|---|
| dmsuperman | jamesish: Weird. In the default case for that switch inside the script, it should print out a Usage string. I do init.d/pulseaudio blah and it doesn't do anything | 03:37 |
|---|
| dmsuperman | Something's wrong | 03:37 |
|---|
| esac | IntuitiveNipple: already set to 100% :( | 03:37 |

|---|
| tjay | IntuitiveNipple: SaintYossarian was helping me yesterday, but it stopped, it wouldn't compile. | 03:37 |
|---|
| billstei | ryan__: you just need to be in the same directory with the terminal when you run dpkg | 03:37 |
|---|
| saintbob | firefox won't load msnbc and a few other sites while konqueror loads fine whats up can't get flash to work in konqueror? | 03:37 |
|---|
| kris | i am confused now | 03:37 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | tjay: My DKMS package? what was the failure? | 03:38 |
|---|
| lucax | how do i set gnome as default desktop? | 03:38 |
|---|
| tjay | I will run it again, and PM you the output of the failure, okay? | 03:38 |
|---|
| billstei | ryan__: I just installed that plugin and dpkg worked fine to install it, but in pidgin I do not see the plugin listed. Not sure why (?) | 03:38 |
|---|
| danbh_intrepid | lucax: what is happening now? | 03:38 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | esac: If you use vlc to play the file, that allows driving the volume way past 100%. | 03:38 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | tjay: sure... was that my DKMS package? | 03:39 |
|---|
| lucax | danbh_intrepid: after ive installed kde on ubuntu... every user i add takes kde as default desktop instead of gnome... | 03:39 |
|---|
| ryan__ | billstei: hmmmmm... | 03:40 |
|---|
| danbh_intrepid | lucax: well, there should be an option at login, to choose which is the default. If you want to get rid of kde, I can help with that too | 03:40 |
|---|
| lucax | danbh_intrepid: i want them to have gnome as default, i only installed for my user | 03:40 |
|---|
| saintbob | firefox won't load msnbc and a few other sites while konqueror loads fine whats up can't get flash to work in konqueror? | 03:40 |
|---|
| kris | i don't even remember your nicks | 03:40 |
|---|
| kris | who was helping me? | 03:40 |
|---|
| lucax | danbh_intrepid: i dont want to get rid of kde, i use it... but other users want gnome... what option in gdm? | 03:40 |
|---|
| lucax | danbh_intrepid: or how do i do it?... i believe im writing gdm settings on /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom | 03:41 |
|---|
| danbh_intrepid | lucax: Im not sure, but I do remember it popping up at some point. Maybe its just a popup when you select a different environment.. | 03:41 |
|---|
| kris | danbh_intrepid: did u changed your nickname? | 03:42 |
|---|
| lucax | danbh_intrepid: ill try... | 03:42 |
|---|
| danbh_intrepid | kris: no | 03:42 |
|---|
| dmsuperman | jamesish: Aha! found it | 03:42 |
|---|
| dmsuperman | jamesish: NO idea why this was there, but there was a line that said test "$PULSEAUDIO_SYSTEM_START" != "1" && exit 0 | 03:42 |
|---|
| Newuser1111 | ? | 03:42 |
|---|
| dmsuperman | jamesish: Commented it out, init.d script works fine now :D | 03:42 |
|---|
| kris | danbh_intrepid: ok so I was talkiing with you could u repeat your command? this with trash route . and what does it do | 03:43 |
|---|
| PerfectExodus | Greetings all... | 03:44 |

| DasEi | unop:made up the rest and now (dared dazuko earlier this day)installed the (so needed) antivir, dazuko is implemented in hardy-kernel , and it found a lot of (win) stuff, mainly using my wine so... installing antivir use the kerneloption of its installer | 03:49 |

| Verilium | danbh_intrepid: I can mount the volume fine, just through /dev/mapper. It's just not showing up in /dev/disk/by-uuid. As if udev didn't create the symlink or something? I just created this volume, haven't rebooted or anything. | 04:36 |

|---|
| DasEi | zack___: you can paste cmd's from messenger to terminal | 04:37 |
|---|
| Verilium | danbh_intrepid: I could try rebooting, but nonetheless, I'm more curious if there's a way to get this missing symlink to show up in there. | 04:37 |
|---|
| RickZilla | Guess I'd better start reading the ubuntu wiki before I start asking idiot questions | 04:37 |
|---|
| rebel_kid | anyone know anything about using svn (subversion) | 04:37 |
|---|
| danbh_intrepid | Verilium: I reeallyy don't know. I havent a clue. | 04:37 |

| zack___ | dasei, i have the fdisk output pasted in but do i need to mount the grub/boot/menu.lst ? its blank also | 04:37 |
|---|
| jamesish | Verilium: don't you just mount it via /dev/mapper's entry? It's been a few months since I did LVM stuff, btu I think you do. | 04:37 |
|---|
| DasEi | zack___: gedit /grub/boot/menu.lst ,its not blank | 04:38 |

|---|
| Verilium | jamesish: I could, that works fine. But, wanting to follow this ubuntu 8.04 method, I followed the stuff already in fstab and want to mount by UUID. :) | 04:39 |

|---|
| sumo_su | zack___: just type fdisk -l (lowercase L) does it output anything? | 04:39 |
|---|
| Verilium | jamesish: And putting the UUID in fstab, seems to make it want to try to mount via /dev/disk/by-uuid/<UUID>. | 04:40 |

| raw | has anyone here been successful in rigging a dual GPU card (in this case, a XFX 9800 GX2) to work on dual monitors using twinview? I can use Xinerama but I can't use compiz with it. I didn't realise that getting twinview working with this card would be a hassle when I bought it. Shouldn't I be able to enable SLI to make the GPUs work as 1 GPU and then twinview that? Does anyone know how I might go about configuring this? | 04:51 |

| Frodo | brandonmpace: but you see the problem, those gears should interlock, they don't | 05:29 |

|---|
| zack___ | dasei, im looking at the sire now | 05:40 |
|---|
| DasEi | zack___: for usuall a win-installation only kills the mbr, but never the grub folder or the whole filesystem..... something very strange is going on | 05:40 |
|---|
| DasEi | zack___: its like a live cd but with special options to restore grub and no overhaed like a desktop | 05:41 |
|---|
| zack___ | dasei, ok i downloaded it, should i burn the iso to a cd? | 05:41 |
|---|
| tj83 | zack___, with the time you have spent here you could have backed up your important files, cleared all partitions, and installed windows then ubuntu. :) | 05:41 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | zack___: look in your bios and make sure that the drive even shows up there. If it doesn´t, look around the settings. Are these drives SATA? | 05:41 |
|---|
| tjay | My Blu-Ray drive says it can't "mount the disk" . . . Why not??? | 05:41 |
|---|
| DasEi | zack___: yes, burn it | 05:42 |
|---|
| SchmittyDoesIt | brandonmpace: i found it | 05:42 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | tj83: his drive with his data isn´t even showing up.... | 05:42 |
|---|
| zcat[1] | DasEi, windows is pretty helpful sometimes about telling you "this isn't a windows filesystem should I go ahead and format it?" -- my nephew killed their dual-boot machine because Windows seemed to thing the /boot partiton ought to be an NTFS filesystem | 05:42 |
|---|
| usser | SchmittyDoesIt, edit /etc/resolv.conf | 05:42 |
|---|
| SchmittyDoesIt | brandonmpace: /etc/resolv.conf | 05:42 |

| zack___ | tj83, hah well i would like to be able to get into the drive to back up my stuff. but the live cd doesnt see it having anything on it | 05:42 |

| SchmittyDoesIt | thanx usser | 05:42 |
|---|
| zack___ | dasei, i will let oyu know when its done burning, might take a bit this is an older laptop | 05:42 |

| tj83 | zack___, might you have overwritten the partition? | 05:43 |

| fl0w | I'm looking to install ubuntu. But when I browse http://packages.ubuntu.com to prepare for my installation I only find php5.2.4, but not 5.2.6. Does this mean I have to compile it myself or how does this work? (I've never used ubuntu before) | 05:59 |
|---|
| DasEi | k, it can repair its (win mbr ) in emergency, too | 05:59 |
|---|
| yokobr | and then ive got the error message. | 05:59 |

| zack___ | dasei, roger that | 05:59 |
|---|
| ^paradox^ | i need something to split files into smaller parts. question: if i used an app to do it in linux would a windows user be able to reunite the pieces? | 06:00 |
|---|
| SchmittyDoesIt | if i ifconfig myself a static IP it goes away after i reboot the machine as well as my statically assigned default gw. How can i set these in stone per say | 06:00 |
|---|
| DasEi | zack___: so after choosing, grub couldn't find any boot, also ? sgd not succesful ? oo... | 06:00 |
|---|
| yokobr | Creating ext3 file system partition #1 of SCSI3 (0,0,0) (sda) has failed. | 06:00 |
|---|
| CorbinFox | ^paradox^: maybe just use notepad and copy and paste the contents of the files back together, i did that once before and it wokred | 06:01 |
|---|
| Mr_Fixit | any reason why i can't connect to myself ssh?? firewall is open.. ssh: connect to host localhost port 22: Connection refused | 06:01 |
|---|
| zack___ | dasei, that is correct | 06:01 |
|---|
| DasEi | zack___: where there any important file on the ubu-parti ? | 06:01 |
|---|
| ^paradox^ | im talking about splitting an iso or a video file though | 06:01 |
|---|
| zack___ | dasei, well the only thing i was the MOST worried about is backed up on another computer. but i can get everything i had before back besides that one thing | 06:02 |
|---|
| ^paradox^ | not a document | 06:02 |
|---|
| spasticteapot | Does anyone know where wget downloads to by default? | 06:02 |

| chubs | spasticteapot, the directory that you're in | 06:03 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, yeap | 06:03 |
|---|
| DasEi | zack___: I'm getting more and more the idea of an reinstallation, nope no acces , only raw | 06:04 |
|---|
| DasEi | zack___: reboot machine, try another option from the cd menu(grub) | 06:04 |
|---|
| zack___ | dasei, ok one second | 06:04 |
|---|
| liza0_ | i have a system with an athlon 64 x2 procesor and 4GB of RAM. would getting the 64bit version of ubuntu offer more betetr performance than the 32 bit version | 06:04 |
|---|
| ^paradox^ | let me try again. if i used something like gtkfilesplitter to split say a large zip file would a windows user be able to reunite the pieces? | 06:05 |
|---|
| zack___ | dasei, ok which options this time? | 06:05 |
|---|
| moshe | liza0,the 64 bit version will give you an increase in speed and can take advantage of the processor's capabilities | 06:05 |
|---|
| DasEi | zack___: lang&help>englis> boot-tools>show partis | 06:05 |

| zack___ | dasei, haha o wow it says natural 1 hda size 1 TB | 06:06 |

|---|
| zack___ | dasei, its 186gb or something really. | 06:07 |
|---|
| DasEi | moshe: liza0: its minimal faster, but important if you wanna adress huge amount of ram or really often recompile kernels, speed increasement is minimal | 06:07 |
|---|
| ^paradox^ | need some suggestions plz. need to be able to cut files and distribute the pieces to anyone any OS | 06:07 |
|---|
| sumo_su | zack___: you suffered a HD loss but the HD is healthy and the data is still phyisically there... thats what we agree on right? | 06:08 |

| sumo_su | zack___: i suggest you google and try for 3 days to get back your data, or you accept its gone | 06:09 |

| DasEi | zack___: go back to tools menu | 06:09 |

| === NADine is now known as wahyu |
| sumo_su | you never backed up your MBR did you? | 06:09 |
|---|
| DasEi | zack___: try unhide parti | 06:09 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs? | 06:09 |
|---|
| wahyu | haloo | 06:09 |
|---|
| grendal_prime | ^paradox^: what kind of files? | 06:10 |
|---|
| wahyu | daesi hlooo | 06:10 |
|---|
| ^paradox^ | grendal was hoping to cut any type | 06:11 |
|---|
| zack___ | dasei, ok im at unhide partition help | 06:11 |
|---|
| zack___ | sumo, i didnt back up the mbr | 06:11 |
|---|
| ^paradox^ | zip iso pdf | 06:11 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, no clue | 06:11 |
|---|
| grendal_prime | ^paradox^: have you thought about using some p2p app like...bearshare, something like that...i mean...gtkgnutella and limewire can utilize those. | 06:11 |
|---|
| DasEi | zack___: choose unhide >enter | 06:11 |
|---|
| DasEi | anything shown ? what ? | 06:11 |
|---|
| grendal_prime | jigdoo mayby..some sort of torrent? | 06:11 |
|---|
| ^paradox^ | well actually id send the pieces by email | 06:12 |
|---|
| zack___ | dasei, it shows the 2 hard drives the top one is listed again as 1tb | 06:12 |
|---|
| heyman12 | any good tutorials on installing GD? | 06:12 |
|---|
| DasEi | zack___: did you encrypt the drive ? | 06:12 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, i think i have a little bit of a kind of a clue.. | 06:12 |
|---|
| zack___ | dasei, nope | 06:12 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, clue me in | 06:12 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | zack___: I've been watching this exchange, and looked at the pastebin fdisk output... but not seen if you have said how many partitions were on the drive, and what file-systems they were? | 06:13 |
|---|
| sumo_su | zack___: windows showed me a 12TB partition when my mbr was sick:)) | 06:13 |
|---|
| chalcedony | :) | 06:13 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, i have a 160 gb hd, but it aways showed 149.. Now it shows 160, but on that instalation option for resizing, it asks to resize the 149 gb left.. | 06:13 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, are you trying to save any partition? | 06:14 |
|---|
| DasEi | zack___: so there are few more options (I don't believe in), like testdisk or trying to rebuild parti-table (use gparted, for exeample do sth with the small unallocated at the end of sda), but I think its.... | 06:14 |
|---|
| yokobr | looks like something erased someting vey important to my hd. | 06:14 |
|---|
| yokobr | Yeap. | 06:14 |
|---|
| zack___ | intuitive, the first hard drive was a standard ubunt install and the second is a standard xp pro install. the partitions on the first would have been the normal ones ubuntu makes when it installs | 06:14 |
|---|
| yokobr | ah | 06:14 |
|---|
| DasEi | zack___: time to REINSTALL ubuntu | 06:14 |
|---|
| yokobr | no | 06:14 |
|---|
| zack___ | dasei, i think im on your side about this one | 06:14 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, hard drives are never the size advertised, base8 vs base10 calculations | 06:14 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, you said if im trying to keep an existing one? | 06:14 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, i was just asking | 06:14 |
|---|
| chubs | if you were | 06:14 |
|---|
| Daft_Punk | does firestarter have to be running in order for the firewall to be working? | 06:15 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | zack___: so, is the issue you're dealing with the loss of the partition-table on sda? | 06:15 |
|---|
| zack___ | dasei, thanks for you help i really appreciate it | 06:15 |
|---|
| boozer_ | no Daft_Punk | 06:15 |
|---|
| DasEi | zack___: if you're done with that, u can use grub to boot windows | 06:15 |
|---|
| chull | http://www.pastebin.ca/1203018 alsamixer: function snd_ctl_open failed for default: No such file or directory | 06:15 |
|---|
| sumo_su | IntuitiveNipple: i think its sdb | 06:15 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, it seems to install m$ winblows well.. | 06:15 |
|---|
| Daft_Punk | boozer_, so if i create a firewall and permissions with firestarter it saves it to the iptables and i dont have to start the program for it to function? | 06:15 |
|---|
| frazras | I heard I could find out here: Why is XMMS not inthe hardy repos | 06:16 |
|---|
| yokobr | but i cant create ext3 file system on it. | 06:16 |
|---|
| MindVirus | What's a good GUI for an alarm program? | 06:16 |
|---|
| DasEi | chull:sounddriver not installed | 06:16 |
|---|
| zack___ | intuitive, nothing on the drive is recognized by the live cd its considered unallocated. i believe all the data is still ther ebut i dont think i can get anything off of it | 06:16 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, I don't think the ubuntu installer installs windows very well | 06:16 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | sumo_su: the pastebin output shows sda partition table is corrupted; sdb is fine | 06:16 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, are you on it now? | 06:16 |
|---|
| chubs | livecd stylin'? | 06:16 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | zack___: OK... do you know how the MBR was lost? did something reformat or is it random corruption? | 06:16 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, im on xubuntu live cd... but ive tryied a windows xp cd and it installed.. | 06:16 |
|---|
| boozer_ | try "iptables -L " to see the list of rules and policies before and after you run the firewall | 06:17 |
|---|
| yokobr | then i tryed xubuntu again, but no luck. | 06:17 |
|---|
| zack___ | intuitive, i reformatted my secondary harddrive and reinstalled xp onto it | 06:17 |
|---|
| boozer_ | Daft_Punk try "iptables -L " to see the list of rules and policies before and after you run the firewall | 06:17 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, but you are on it right now? as in you could pastebin the output of mount | 06:17 |
|---|
| yokobr | Ohhh | 06:18 |
|---|
| yokobr | dammm | 06:18 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | zack___: as DasEi said, it is worth running testdisk on it, let it analyse the drive - it will likely find the boot-sectors of each of the file-systems, and help you rebuild the partition table so you can access the file-systems again, even if only from the LiveCD | 06:18 |
|---|
| sumo_su | IntuitiveNipple: oh sure my fault and youre right | 06:18 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, it installed with reiserfs | 06:18 |
|---|
| sysdoc | !upgrade | 06:18 |
|---|
| ubottu | For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes | 06:18 |
|---|
| Alpha232 | reiserfs is a murderer ;) | 06:18 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, wtf is wrong with ext3? | 06:18 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, that's a killer filesystem | 06:18 |
|---|
| zack___ | intuitive, how would i run test disk? i have all night | 06:18 |
|---|
| yokobr | i know | 06:18 |
|---|
| heyman12 | is there a way to install GD on ubuntu? | 06:18 |
|---|
| sumo_su | hmm... each drive has a different MBR | 06:18 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, i didnt meant to install it.. | 06:19 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | zack___: Are you running as LiveCD on that machine right now? | 06:19 |
|---|
| frazras | Does anyone know why is XMMS not inthe hardy repos? | 06:19 |
|---|
| yokobr | but its the only one that installs | 06:19 |
|---|
| sumo_su | zack___: have you tired unplugging that xp drive? | 06:19 |
|---|
| DasEi | IntuitiveNipple:like to watch it, if zack___ isnt to shredded now | 06:19 |
|---|
| zack___ | though i am doubtful of any progress. i have to reboot into the live cd im in super grub. yes i have unplugged the xp drive and tried booting directly form the ubuntu drive | 06:19 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, like i said before, type in mount at the commandline. give me the output | 06:19 |
|---|
| Tomas5786 | Q is there a IRC bot that can be installed on ubuntu | 06:20 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, with no params? | 06:20 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | DasEi: no harm analysing it, and rewriting an experimental partition table is only the first sector, which is corrupt anyhow (but can be backed up first) | 06:20 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, none | 06:20 |
|---|
| yokobr | ok | 06:20 |
|---|
| therealnanotube | ^paradox^: look at the "split" command. it will do what you want. | 06:20 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | I figured this would be the place to ask this question- What PCI not PCI Express Video Card would you recommend for Ubuntu 8.04. Right now I am on Intel Onboard I believe it is 810 series. ?? Any recomendations? Ati or NVidia? | 06:20 |
|---|
| sumo_su | zack___: maybe you set the jumpers wrong when you installed the HD | 06:20 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | zack___: start it with the LiveCD and then install testdisk: "sudo apt-get install testdisk" | 06:20 |
|---|
| frazras | heyman12: sudo apt-get install php5-gd | 06:21 |
|---|
| zack___ | sumo, the jumpers are right, i havent changed them from when they previously worked | 06:21 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | ati or nvidia pci card would suit | 06:21 |
|---|
| heyman12 | are you kidding me frazras | 06:21 |
|---|
| DasEi | IntuitiveNipple:prob is neither fstab nor supergrub sees any fs, e2fsck missed, gparted shows nth...so, wish zack.. force and gods sake ... | 06:21 |
|---|
| heyman12 | that easy | 06:21 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | depends on what you are trying to do and other factors of your system | 06:21 |
|---|
| therealnanotube | Tomas5786: search in synaptic, you might ind something. :) | 06:21 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, http://pastebin.com/m68795197 | 06:21 |
|---|
| DasEi | prob* | 06:21 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | you dont want to stick a fx 5500 pci in a pentium 75 with 16 mb ram | 06:21 |
|---|
| frazras | heyman12: thats the only place I ever used GD | 06:22 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | I had a more powerful system with Ati 9700 and Amd 64 but it was stolen and will take some time to get up money to rebuild it.. | 06:22 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | DasEi: I've rebuild disks with much worse problems than this. It is possible, but it does require time and some intelligence applying, and often plenty of manual intervention. | 06:22 |
|---|
| chubs | ^Devious^, find me a motherboard and i'll do it | 06:22 |
|---|
| yokobr | just a min | 06:22 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | And this is a PIII 900mhz 512mb memory | 06:22 |
|---|
| Jambon | ok. I somehow nuked x and I don't know where to begin. I was trying to configure my network settings (I couldn't see my wireless connection and there was no option to check on it), and the control panel told me I was not allowed to access it. then the computer froze, so I did a hard reboot, only to find x unable to start even in recovery mode. It said something about the x.config file being read-only. Any ideas? I really just want to g | 06:22 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | but no-- AGP found for 100$ Whole system. | 06:23 |
|---|
| DasEi | IntuitiveNipple:zack___ : your nerves ? another 30 min of digging ? | 06:23 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | I have a question - for anyone who would care to answer. What is the most featured CLI based web browserr - capable of utilising java, images etc | 06:23 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, pay attention to line 13. sudo umount /dev/sda1 | 06:23 |
|---|
| chubs | then try | 06:23 |
|---|
| chubs | to partition it again | 06:23 |
|---|
| yokobr | ok | 06:23 |
|---|
| zack___ | oh lawds mights as well attempt it | 06:23 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | lol I know you could really stick it on a p75 - you have a very similar system to me.... The most youd probably do is a geforce 4 pci or fx5500 - something like that | 06:23 |
|---|
| therealnanotube | Tomas5786: on my feisty box, command "apt-cache search 'irc.*bot' returns a couple dozen matches. | 06:23 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | DasEi: I've spent a week rebuilding a failed RAID array :) | 06:23 |
|---|
| bunnyto | what is a good samba configuration tool? | 06:23 |
|---|
| sysdoc | What is the apt-get to upgrade to intrepid? | 06:24 |
|---|
| zack___ | intuitive, haha | 06:24 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | I had to disable - the Visual effects just to get it to run without artifacts. | 06:24 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | GF 4 FX5500? | 06:24 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, it only works with reiserfs.. | 06:24 |
|---|
| therealnanotube | ^Devious^: i use 'elinks' on the cli. no java/javascript, but does just about anything else. | 06:24 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | nah GF4 440 might do the trick | 06:24 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | elinks sounds good | 06:24 |
|---|
| yokobr | try ext2? | 06:24 |
|---|
| yokobr | or any other? | 06:25 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr | 06:25 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | I found a GF 6600 Pci EVGA | 06:25 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | And also - is there a way to boot an operating system using a non bootable Sata card (It has no bios or anything) using some kind of linux boot disk - or any method will work ok | 06:25 |
|---|
| zack___ | intuitive ok im in the live cd, apt-get install testdisk? | 06:25 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | 256mb would that work well in ubuntu with all effects turned on | 06:25 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | zack___: can you copy stuff from that PC to the 'net ? | 06:25 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, yeap? | 06:25 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, quit the installer. sudo umount /dev/sda1. cfdisk /dev/sda | 06:25 |
|---|
| DasEi | zack___ : boot into live, go to the catacombes... | 06:25 |
|---|
| zack___ | dasei, lol | 06:25 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | GF 6600 PCI???? wow.....wouldnt you lose half the Bwidth of the card? | 06:26 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | Yes | 06:26 |
|---|
| zack___ | intuitive, ya i can pastebin outputs and such, testdisk isnt a found package though | 06:26 |
|---|
| bunnyto | what is a good samba configuration tool? | 06:26 |
|---|
| yokobr | umount: /dev/sda1.: not found | 06:26 |
|---|
| yokobr | umount: cfdisk: not found | 06:26 |
|---|
| yokobr | umount: /dev/sda: not mounted | 06:26 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | 256mb though | 06:26 |
|---|
| yokobr | sorry for the flood, just 3 lines ;) | 06:26 |
|---|
| dinx | yokobr: run as root | 06:26 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | well I reckon having 256mb ram is enough for a lot of machines....it depends on what you do with it and how you use ram/disk | 06:27 |
|---|
| yokobr | dinx, ive ran as root | 06:27 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, those are separate commands, and you should have sudo in front of them. cfdisk /dev/sda is a separate command | 06:27 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | 76$ | 06:27 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, if it isn't mounted then cfdisk it | 06:27 |
|---|
| therealnanotube | ^Devious^: "apt-cache search 'www-browser'" will give you a good list to start with, if you want more options. :) | 06:27 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | zack___: I'd like to see that sector 0... can you attach it to a post in the forums, Hardware and Laptops? Do "dd if=/dev/sda bs=512 count=1 | gzip >sector0.bin.gz" and attach the gzipped file to a post in the forum | 06:27 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | I was running win2k on 64mb ram - I reckon youd get effects running ok eventually with a bit of tweaking | 06:27 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | THANKS NANOTUBE | 06:27 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, done. | 06:27 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | that just taught me something new - I've been meaning to learn how to SEARCH apt from CLI | 06:27 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | zack___: I'm wondering if there's a clue in the data in the sector of what has happened, which might give us a clue on how best to repair it | 06:28 |
|---|
| murlidhar | err can anybody guide me to the openbox irc channel? | 06:28 |
|---|
| therealnanotube | ^Devious^: hehe, yw. :) | 06:28 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | Though Ubuntu works very well with onboard -- with the effects turned off. | 06:28 |
|---|
| zack___ | intuitive ok give me a minute or two | 06:28 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, done as in you partitioned the reiserfs partition as ext3? | 06:28 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | zack___: ok, give me a poke when you've done it | 06:28 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | It even does MPEG video better at full screen than WinXP did. | 06:28 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | nano - can you pm me shortly when you can be bothered? thx in adv | 06:28 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, now wich file system should i choose? | 06:28 |
|---|
| therealnanotube | ^Devious^: here's another tip: your irc client probably has automatic tab-completion of usernames. so if you type in "there" and hit tab, it would autocomplete my name. ;) | 06:29 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, ext3 | 06:29 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | It does tooo thanks | 06:29 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | thats great | 06:29 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | therealnanotube: awesome | 06:29 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | but how does it diff between people? | 06:29 |
|---|
| therealnanotube | ^Devious^: indeed. :) now the posts where you mention my name get nice and highlighted in red. ;) | 06:29 |
|---|
| yokobr | cant find it on ckdisk | 06:30 |
|---|
| therealnanotube | ^Devious^: if there's no unique match, it gives you a list. | 06:30 |
|---|
| * dinx slaps devious :-) | 06:30 |
| therealnanotube | ^Devious^: try it, if you just type "the", hit tab, see what comes up. :) | 06:30 |
|---|
| gord_ | THE GAME comes up | 06:30 |
|---|
| Jambon | anyone, help with X? | 06:30 |
|---|
| Bigmack83 | i want to compress a file and contents into a .tar.bz2 file. (tar jcvf file.name files_2_compress) but is there a way to target a directory and exclude one of the subdirectories in it from being in the compressed file? | 06:30 |
|---|
| dinx | Jambon: > | 06:31 |
|---|
| dinx | ?* | 06:31 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, its the default one? | 06:31 |
|---|
| Tomas5786 | Q which IRC bot is the best for Ubuntu | 06:31 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, just blank it for now, see if the installer can handle it then, alright? | 06:31 |
|---|
| zack___ | intuitive, ok new thread posted | 06:31 |
|---|
| Gun_Smoke | therealnanotube, uberscript for xchat has a nice function of sorting nicks.. autocomplete with the last nick used. | 06:31 |
|---|
| DracoZA | Is there going to be a 8.10 version this year ? | 06:32 |
|---|
| Jambon | dinx: ?? | 06:32 |
|---|
| zack___ | intuitive, "hard drive seems to have died" | 06:32 |
|---|
| Gun_Smoke | of? | 06:32 |
|---|
| murlidhar | k figured it out anyways . it's irc.ofrc.net | 06:32 |
|---|
| dinx | Jambon: you said something about X | 06:32 |
|---|
| DasEi | vampires ẞ http://pastebin.com/m140c27d9 | 06:32 |
|---|
| Gun_Smoke | DracoZA, are you asking about ubuntu version? | 06:33 |
|---|
| DracoZA | yes Gun_Smoke | 06:33 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | zack___: Yeah, looking at the file already :) | 06:33 |
|---|
| Jambon | dinx: yes. it's borked. any restart, no matter in recovery mode or not, cannot start it. in recovery mode it tells me my x.org config file is read-only | 06:33 |
|---|
| therealnanotube | Gun_Smoke: nice, i'll check it out... but i'm a really fast typist, so i usually type about first 5 chars of name before hitting tab, which gives me a unique match most of the time. heh. | 06:33 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, the installer still see it as reiserfs (and ive choosed write, and then yes) | 06:33 |
|---|
| peepsalot | i wanted to try out rt kernel but just ended up with a busted video driver | 06:33 |
|---|
| Gun_Smoke | DracoZA, 8.10 translates to Oct of 08 so yes. | 06:33 |
|---|
| peepsalot | not sure what i need to get it back | 06:34 |
|---|
| DasEi | zack___:since the 1 tb info of s-grub i also could imagine a hdd-end | 06:34 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, restart | 06:34 |
|---|
| zack___ | dasei, whats that? | 06:34 |
|---|
| yokobr | ok, just a min, so | 06:34 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | did anyone answer my non bios sata boot question? I was away for a moment | 06:34 |
|---|
| dinx | chubs: whats he trying to do ? convert reiserfs to ext3 ? | 06:34 |
|---|
| DracoZA | Gun_Smoke wasnt sure with 8.04 being LTS whether that still meant 8.10 will happen, havent seen anything mentioned anywhere it. | 06:34 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | zack___: haha... the MBR is now an NTFS boot-sector, the first sector of an NTFS file-system. | 06:34 |
|---|
| Gun_Smoke | therealnanotube, yeah same here.. uberscript has a lot of other cool functions. | 06:34 |
|---|
| DasEi | zack___:end of life of a hardware component | 06:34 |
|---|
| Gun_Smoke | DracoZA, look at digg it's all over it. | 06:35 |
|---|
| zack___ | intuitive, what the hell can that be fixed? | 06:35 |
|---|
| DracoZA | Gun_Smoke will do, Tx | 06:35 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | zack___: looks like somehow the drive was file-system formatted... I could do with seeing more sectors. | 06:35 |
|---|
| Gun_Smoke | DracoZA, and you can peak in #ubuntu+1 | 06:35 |
|---|
| DracoZA | sweet | 06:35 |
|---|
| DasEi | zack___:but on the other hand... you say windows is still running on it ? | 06:36 |
|---|
| therealnanotube | Gun_Smoke: so where do i find this uberscript? | 06:36 |
|---|
| zack___ | dasei, the second hard drive has a working windows install | 06:36 |

| sysv | what's the kernel version in the current 8.04 installer? | 06:37 |
|---|
| zack___ | haha | 06:37 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | Guys... zack__ and me are going into #disk-recovery so we can focus on this... anyone else is free to join us | 06:37 |
|---|
| chubs | Guitarplayer001, lol | 06:37 |
|---|
| Gun_Smoke | might want to change a pw.. | 06:37 |
|---|
| Guitarplayer001 | maybe | 06:37 |
|---|
| Guitarplayer001 | or maybe i just fooled you all and actually did that on purpose | 06:38 |
|---|
| Guitarplayer001 | Lol | 06:38 |
|---|
| Gun_Smoke | hehe, only 1259 people have it now. | 06:38 |
|---|
| therealnanotube | Gun_Smoke: tx :) | 06:38 |
|---|
| Guitarplayer001 | nope..... i'm not /that/ stupid i wouldn't actually do that with my real pw for the 4th time Lol. | 06:38 |

| Benkamin | I am trying to install a tarball package of digikam. I've d/led the packege, but can't find the "configure" file there. any idea? | 06:38 |
|---|
| Jambon | dinx: any ideas? | 06:38 |
|---|
| Gun_Smoke | therealnanotube, it's easy to install.. extract it and move the I think 4 files to .xchat2 in your home folder | 06:39 |
|---|
| Gun_Smoke | then restart xchat | 06:39 |
|---|
| sysv | what's the kernel version in the current 8.04 installer? | 06:39 |
|---|
| Gun_Smoke | 24 i think | 06:39 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, didnt worked.. | 06:39 |
|---|
| crimsun | sysv: 2.6.24 is the base. | 06:40 |
|---|
| DasEi | IntuitiveNipple: can't join there | 06:40 |
|---|
| sysv | Christ, not .26? | 06:40 |
|---|
| D0M1N8R | GN all thanks for the help tonight | 06:40 |
|---|
| therealnanotube | Gun_Smoke: too bad there isn't a more comprehensive feature list and stuff... i'm kinda wary of putting it in and getting a whole crapload of options i don't care for. :) | 06:40 |
|---|
| Gun_Smoke | just as easy to remove. | 06:40 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, it still saw it as reiserfs | 06:41 |
|---|
| DasEi | unop ? | 06:42 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, I think you're doing something incorrect here | 06:42 |
|---|
| unop | DasEi, gutten morgen | 06:42 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, will it still install to reiserfs? | 06:42 |
|---|
| Gun_Smoke | that poor guy | 06:42 |
|---|
| DasEi | unop:thanks again for dazuko, see http://pastebin.com/m140c27d9 | 06:43 |
|---|
| DasEi | oo | 06:43 |
|---|
| unop | DasEi, where is this from? | 06:44 |
|---|
| Jambon | would it be possible to see my installation and files from an install cd? my x is bored (says the x11 config file is read only and can't do anything about it). | 06:44 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, im doing it right... the problem is that every time i point to that partition, it mounts it automaticaly, and then it cant format as ext3 file system | 06:44 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | So does anyone know how I can make a non bootable sata card bootable? Its a VIA type chipset | 06:44 |
|---|
| DasEi | unop:scanning one of my """open""" linux machines | 06:44 |
|---|
| unop | DasEi, ok, but is that a good thing or a bad thing? | 06:44 |
|---|
| Cheeky | hey could anyone tell me wat this message says?http://paste.ubuntu.com/49578/ i installed apache and started it but gives this message anyone ? | 06:45 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, how are you pointing to the partition? the installer should not mount it | 06:45 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, i have to find a way to make it stay unmounted while i install. | 06:45 |
|---|
| DasEi | unop:eerm, that means that some tricky programmers use wine to have win trojans running via wine | 06:45 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, that's the default behavior, well during partitioning. it mounts it to install of course | 06:45 |
|---|
| therealnanotube | ^Devious^: try this? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=590931 | 06:45 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | therealnanotube: -- thanks | 06:45 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | yokobr: I would just go get the alternate install cd, because that will most likely work for you | 06:46 |
|---|
| Voox | how come when I play videos in firefox I can't play mp3s at the same time? | 06:46 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | what does it briefly say? I went over my quota for dloads by 60gb...and Im capped at like 4 - 6 kb/s | 06:46 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | therealnanotube: | 06:46 |
|---|
| gukina | If i want to share a folder over my network, should i write it to 755? | 06:46 |
|---|
| unop | DasEi, that makes sense - Wine provides an implementation of the win32 API - so technically, if the API allows for it, a virus should have no problem running. | 06:46 |
|---|
| therealnanotube | ^Devious^: says, in bios, change the sata mode to "raid" instead of ide. | 06:47 |
|---|
| unop | DasEi, though in most cases, the viruses don't really have the ability to affect the actual linux system - they are contained within the wine environment. | 06:47 |
|---|
| yokobr | wow | 06:47 |
|---|
| chubs | unop, DasEi, the API only is the key there. A trojan won't really do anything | 06:47 |
|---|
| DasEi | unop:for me its less bad, as its all logged by an outgoing srve,but in times before cause of that (and its also blocking such stuff) I had very often issues in connections | 06:47 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, i think it will work now | 06:47 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, what'd you do? or rather, what were you doing ;)? | 06:48 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | chubs is correct | 06:48 |
|---|
| unop | chubs, you have to remember that there is a symlink within the wine directory heirarchy that points to / tho - there is a potential for file access into the system. | 06:48 |
|---|
| DasEi | unop: also the cmd-line scanner seems to work better/deeper than the win-gui | 06:48 |
|---|
| chubs | unop, if you're running a wine program as root. | 06:48 |
|---|
| DasEi | chubs: or a keylogger got your rootpassword... | 06:49 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, its "copyng" the files on the installer.. but it mounted it anyway.. | 06:49 |
|---|
| unop | chubs, not all files are owned by root tho - after all / contains /home which contains your homedir and so on | 06:49 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, it mounts it to copy the files | 06:49 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, so it seems to work now.. | 06:50 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | unop: there would have to be a specific implementation of any certain malicious program SPECIFICALLY for wine | 06:50 |
|---|
| chubs | unop, I don't think you're understanding, it won't get beyond .wine to begin with | 06:50 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | therealnanotube: - interesting thing - My bios has support for booting scsi/network but the sata card itself does not support booting from bios...its not onboard card - and | 06:50 |
|---|
| chubs | it'd have to be written for WINE, not windows | 06:50 |
|---|
| Jambon | would someone help me with X. It's very broken and I do not know how to fix it. It just tells me my xorg.config file is read-only | 06:50 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | therealnanotube: and the card HAS NOT got a bios | 06:50 |
|---|
| chubs | oh, ^5 brandonmpace | 06:50 |
|---|
| unop | chubs, i don't think you're understanding me - file access is file access, wine or otherwise | 06:50 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, i had to click on "unmount" on the moment that it prepares to build the file system.. | 06:50 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | :) | 06:50 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, one more second, and i would have crashed. | 06:51 |
|---|
| DasEi | unop,chubs: also in that recent time there where strange facts about suedors and passwd, until i strictly put up an new owner with restrictive rights | 06:51 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, well i'm glad you got it working | 06:51 |
|---|
| therealnanotube | ^Devious^: well, then i'm out of clues for now.... | 06:51 |
|---|
| yokobr | it worked, but its not the proper thing to do. | 06:51 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | therealnanotube: so - I would think that there needs to be some kind of driver mashed on a boot disk with linux on the disk - but I wouldnt know where to start making a customised boot disk, or even a boot loader that supports this kind of odd setup....... I've got a card that DOES support bios boot (Promise - Ilove promise cards always have they are so robust and strong) | 06:51 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, but thank you for the help =D | 06:51 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, and sorry my poor bad english.. im brazilian as you can see. | 06:52 |
|---|
| DasEi | unop,chubs: anyway, becoming offtopic, thanks for advice and hard to wound linux, huuhm | 06:52 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, no problem. ot but do you like os mutantes? | 06:52 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | BRB ALL | 06:52 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, i was on 2 shows | 06:52 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | unop: it may have file access, but if it was coded for actual windows, it would not know how to run ~wine maliciousprogram | 06:52 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, just love it. | 06:52 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, me too :) | 06:52 |
|---|
| Blaenk | hey guys is there a way I can use ssh/scp/sftp to download a directory off my server? | 06:52 |
|---|
| Blaenk | please, I'm desperate ;( | 06:53 |
|---|
| |Steve| | Blaenk: scp -r. | 06:53 |
|---|
| tonyyarusso | Blaenk: scp with the recursive switch. (details in the man page) | 06:53 |
|---|
| Blaenk | thanks guys I appreciate it | 06:53 |
|---|
| chubs | unop, well I guess you can worry if you've got your permissions on / as 777 | 06:53 |
|---|
| Blaenk | can you please please give me a very quick example, scp -r mydir/ once I'm sshed in right? | 06:53 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, great! i saw them on the van before the show and talked with'em.. .but Rita Lee was not there... she left the band (or was disbanded) a long time ago.. | 06:53 |
|---|
| bunnyto | what is a good samba configuration tool? | 06:53 |
|---|
| Jambon | i cannot reconfigure x.org. it tells me the file is read only. can anyone please help? | 06:54 |
|---|
| DasEi | chubs: or after changing a sys-pw the old one still works, to next to the new one, oo | 06:54 |
|---|
| |Steve| | Does anyone else have problems using scp to transfer a file larger than 2MB to a computer running ubuntu? The transfer stalls for me. | 06:54 |
|---|
| tonyyarusso | Blaenk: Which way depends on what your network topology is on both ends, as some are easier than others. | 06:54 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | ok guys I have another one I'm curious about - My dlink router doesnt really support port forwarding....its a dog of a router (there is a way to do it, but its way too much to bother) - is there a way I can setup an FTP server on the network using Ubuntu and be able to access it OUTSIDE the network? | 06:54 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, that's too bad, but still awesome to see them. anyways good luck with ubuntu | 06:54 |
|---|
| Blaenk | tonyyarusso: hmm | 06:54 |
|---|
| unop | brandonmpace, that's not the point - if the wine process has already launched dubious code (the virus) - it has access to files, within wine and as a consequence of the symlink, access to files outside of the ~/.wine heirarchy | 06:54 |
|---|
| Blaenk | tonyyarusso: but I use scp after I ssh in right? | 06:54 |
|---|
| jim_p | hello there | 06:54 |
|---|
| bunnyto | only pansys uses routers | 06:55 |
|---|
| |Steve| | Blaenk: No. Read the man page. | 06:55 |
|---|
| sits | Blaenk: that's lazy :) but... scp -r username@addressofremoteserver:dierctory directoryonyourlocalmachine/ | 06:55 |
|---|
| yokobr | chubs, thank ya.. And another hint : try to listen to "Los Hermanos". Another great brazilian band. | 06:55 |
|---|
| unop | chubs, it's quite easy to try and delete files recursively, starting at / | 06:55 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | unop: ok but it would still have to know what to look for.... | 06:55 |
|---|
| tonyyarusso | Blaenk: Nope - scp is ssh and cp combined into one command. You can do it while in an ssh session, but it amounts to sshing back to the original machine. | 06:55 |
|---|
| Blaenk | ohhhh I see | 06:55 |
|---|
| chubs | yokobr, will do. | 06:55 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | how so bunnyto | 06:55 |
|---|
| Blaenk | I get it now thanks sits and tonyyarusso | 06:55 |
|---|
| Blaenk | I appreciate it | 06:55 |
|---|
| brandan_ | Anyone know a program I can use to record videos of my desktop ? | 06:55 |
|---|
| brandan_ | to post to youtube and things | 06:55 |
|---|
| unop | brandonmpace, why not? ~/.wine/dosdevices/z:/ points to / .. so a process running under wine, has access to z:\* | 06:56 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | brandan_: recordmydesktop | 06:56 |
|---|
| tonyyarusso | brandan_: Istanbul works reasonably well, but the file sizes were still too large for my taste. It's a lot more complicated, but I'd recommend reading Alan Pope's instructions on screencasts.ubuntu.com for some ideas. | 06:56 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | unop: well the only problem you would probably have is a virus that deletes files | 06:56 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | But how would a virus in wine affect a filesystem that it cannot read? | 06:56 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | that´s my point | 06:56 |
|---|
| DasEi | ^Devious^: depends on your ip, i doubt you have a static from your ip | 06:57 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | Im not on sides | 06:57 |
|---|
| unop | brandonmpace, right, and that can be quite a bad thing - because I value my data more than the integrity of the OS | 06:57 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | but Im curious to know now | 06:57 |
|---|
| brandan_ | Thank you, I will get and try out both. | 06:57 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | plus arent most viruses written in assembly or C? | 06:57 |
|---|
| bunnyto | it is weak | 06:57 |
|---|
| brandan_ | :-) | 06:57 |
|---|
| chubs | ^Devious^, it can't, really | 06:57 |
|---|
| DasEi | brandonmpace:easily, like e2fs for winxp | 06:57 |
|---|
| bunnyto | how to move the task bars?? | 06:57 |
|---|
| bunnyto | HELP how to move the task bars?? | 06:57 |

| hateball | !patience | bunnyto | 06:58 |
|---|
| ubottu | bunnyto: The people here are volunteers, your attitude should reflect that. Answers are not always available. See http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines | 06:58 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | unop ^Devious^ I think i´ll go unleash a virus in a VM using wine and see what happens, one that deletes files. | 06:58 |
|---|
| bunnyto | ive paid for ubuntu!!! | 06:58 |
|---|
| Gun_Smoke | haha | 06:58 |
|---|
| hateball | bunnyto: If you've paid for support, you should contact Canonical | 06:58 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | well it wouldnt work in a VM I know that one myself | 06:58 |
|---|
| tonyyarusso | bunnyto: Through which firm? (Hint: You should get support through them, whomever that may be.) | 06:58 |
|---|
| tonyyarusso | hateball: (Note that Canonical isn't the only source of support contracts any more.) | 06:59 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | ^Devious^: I have fried a windows VM that way.... | 06:59 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | It would be a magically very WELL WRITTEN virus to actually infect the Virtual system first and THEN pass through the VM's network to the host and fry it | 06:59 |
|---|
| hateball | tonyyarusso: Alright, didnt know that :) | 06:59 |
|---|
| DasEi | ***also needs money, lol | 06:59 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | Although I reckon the best type of virus would be written in assembly.....It would work the quickest | 06:59 |
|---|
| chubs | wine isn't a VM. the virus will try to access files that it can't or that don't exist | 06:59 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | like a bullet twisted | 06:59 |
|---|
| DrBanzai | What's a good file system to use on a 750gb drive for storing video files of 700mb - 4.7gb? I was going to use ZFS, but it seems to be a cludge... | 07:00 |
|---|
| hateball | Anyhow... you just drag the bars whereever you like them to be, bunnyto | 07:00 |
|---|
| bunnyto | I've paid the guy in the store, he sold me a Ubuntu OEM CD for 300$us with Life universal support on #ubuntu , WHERE is my support?? | 07:00 |
|---|
| hateball | ... | 07:00 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | Support? | 07:00 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | looks like youre getting it from an IRC channel :D | 07:00 |
|---|
| chipbuddy | i have a laptop and a desktop running ubuntu. i want to remotely log in to my desktop from my laptop. i'm assuming i can use something like ssh, but how do i find out the address up the desktop computer? | 07:00 |
|---|
| * Realcoolguy smiles hoping bunnyto is joking :D | 07:00 |
| ^Devious^ | not the store | 07:00 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | ^Devious^: i´m saying that I had no connection between the VM and the host and I fried the xp vm with a virus on purpose, bsod | 07:00 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | BSOD hey....lovely! | 07:00 |
|---|
| DrBanzai | chipbuddy: Open a terminal window and type ifconfig | 07:01 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | chipbuddy you can try VNC???? | 07:01 |
|---|
| ce-cantik | CEW_17SMA | 07:01 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | chipbuddy: VNC | 07:01 |
|---|
| Gun_Smoke | bunnyto, you seriously didn't pay 300 did you? | 07:01 |
|---|
| |Steve| | brandonmpace: What sort of keyboard do you have? Most people don't have a ´ key so using ´ for ' is an uncommon typo. | 07:01 |
|---|
| zeno | hi! i just got a new disk, is it ok to use BSD for the label on it? | 07:01 |
|---|
| brandan_ | I used Istanbul and pressed the Red button to record then pressed it again and it disappeared, Where does it save videos? | 07:01 |
|---|
| zeno | or does that matter | 07:01 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | !vnc | chipbuddy | 07:01 |
|---|
| ubottu | chipbuddy: VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely. It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX | 07:01 |
|---|
| unop | zeno, depends if you would like to use the disk on a win32 machine ever? | 07:02 |
|---|
| zeno | unop: nope | 07:02 |
|---|
| unop | zeno, then you can choose any disklabel | 07:02 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | |Steve|: International | 07:02 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | Id really like to know how to give my network machines real IP's - ATM im just getting sub network addy's (.0.16, 168.0.5 etc etc | 07:02 |
|---|
| zeno | unop: thanks. also how come XFS isnt in the choices for partition type? Im using it for video music only | 07:02 |
|---|
| zeno | in gparted | 07:02 |
|---|
| unop | zeno, xfs is purely optional - you'll have to install it from the repos | 07:03 |
|---|
| brandan_ | Does anyone know where Istanbul puts recorded videos? | 07:03 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | |Steve|: ´ is what I get when I press the apostrophe key | 07:04 |
|---|
| |Steve| | brandonmpace: Strange. | 07:04 |
|---|
| zeno | unop: ok thanks doing that. also gparted giving Unable to open /dev/sdc - unrecognised disk label., maybe ill just go with msdos | 07:04 |
|---|
| jim_p | brandan_: have you looked inside your /home dir | 07:04 |
|---|
| unop | zeno, strange | 07:04 |
|---|
| Bogus8 | where can I get kernel-patch-2.6-reiser4 package? | 07:05 |
|---|
| zeno | unop: should i select round to cylinders? | 07:05 |
|---|
| |Steve| | brandonmpace: I think I'd remap that. It'd drive me nuts to not have an apostrophe/straight single quote. | 07:05 |
|---|
| DrBanzai | Which file system should I use on my new 750gb drive? I'll be using it to store video files of 650mb up to 4.7gb. I was thinking of using ZFS, but it appears to be a bit of a cludge... | 07:05 |
|---|
| unop | zeno, if you like, i don't see it give you any advantage. | 07:05 |
|---|
| detrix | Hello all. I am setting Ubuntu up for programming in C/C++. I am getting this linking error: undefined reference to `__gxx_personality_v0' I am not sure what lib to link with??? | 07:05 |
|---|
| zeno | DrBanzai: ive heard XFS is good for that. im using it for my new drive | 07:05 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | |Steve|: lol well it looks so similar that I don´t mind | 07:06 |
|---|
| zeno | unop: dont know what it even does :) | 07:06 |
|---|
| |Steve| | detrix: You're trying to compile c++ with gcc. Use g++. | 07:06 |
|---|
| unop | DrBanzai, choose a filesystem that is supported widely - in the case, that is ext3 | 07:06 |
|---|
| Bogus8 | IS there a kernel-patch-2.6-reiser4 package? | 07:06 |
|---|
| detrix | I thought gcc would run g++ for me...ok oh well | 07:06 |
|---|
| detrix | thanx | 07:06 |
|---|
| DrBanzai | unop: This won't be a "traveling" drive... | 07:06 |
|---|
| zeno | unop: thanks for all the help. should i run fsck on it? | 07:06 |
|---|
| |Steve| | brandonmpace: Doesn't it affect your ability to do things at the command line? | 07:06 |
|---|
| unop | !find kernel-patch-2.6-reiser4 | Bogus8 | 07:06 |
|---|
| ubottu | bogus8: '|' is not a valid distribution | 07:06 |
|---|
| DrBanzai | zeno: I thought I read somewhere NOT to use a journaling fs... | 07:07 |
|---|
| unop | zeno, errm, you have to create a filesystem first tho | 07:07 |
|---|
| Bogus8 | unop: but the package maintainer for reiser4progs "suggest" that package | 07:07 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | |Steve|: well on this machine I just do basic stuff like internet, etc. So not on this computer. It would on my other one though lol | 07:07 |
|---|
| unop | DrBanzai, if you don't use a journal - you have little chance of recovery if and when things go wrong | 07:08 |
|---|
| zeno | unop: yeah its formatting it | 07:08 |
|---|
| DrBanzai | unop: Yeah...and now I can't remember why it said not too... | 07:08 |

| ^Devious^ | what is the QUICKEST file system? | 07:08 |
|---|
| Bogus8 | ^Devious^: depends on what sort of files you have | 07:08 |
|---|
| unop | ^Devious^, fat12 | 07:09 |
|---|
| Bogus8 | reiser4 seems to be a good choice for me but I can't seem to find a way to mount it :( | 07:09 |
|---|
| |Steve| | brandonmpace: Ah. | 07:09 |
|---|
| unop | Bogus8, <ubottu> Package/file kernel-patch-2.6-reiser4 does not exist in hardy | 07:09 |
|---|
| chubs | Bogus8, it'll lead you to the answer eventually | 07:09 |
|---|
| zeno | unop: what should i put for dump and pass in fstab? | 07:10 |
|---|
| unop | Bogus8, you could search packages.ubuntu.com | 07:10 |
|---|
| detrix | |Steve| : thanx that was it. | 07:10 |
|---|
| Bogus8 | unop, chubs well, the reiser4progs suggest that package... does someone need to fix that? | 07:10 |
|---|
| unop | zeno, 0 2 | 07:10 |
|---|
| |Steve| | detrix: np | 07:10 |
|---|
| chubs | I was just making another reiser joke | 07:10 |
|---|
| Bogus8 | chubs: I'm still trying to sort out what you meant actually | 07:10 |
|---|
| unop | Bogus8, maybe, you could file a bug. | 07:10 |
|---|
| unop | !bug | Bogus8 | 07:10 |
|---|
| ubottu | Bogus8: If you find a bug in Ubuntu or any of its derivatives, please file a bug report at: http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu - Bugs in/wishes for the bots can be filed at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu-bots | 07:10 |
|---|
| Bogus8 | guess I'll do that | 07:11 |
|---|
| Bogus8 | sure would like to be able to just patch the ubuntu kernel vs having to use a generic one :( | 07:11 |
|---|
| DrBanzai | Ok, thanks guys/gals///I'm going to use XFS | 07:12 |
|---|
| Cheeky | iam getting an error everytime i restart apache server in ubunter server .. could anyt one help me .. this is my error : http://paste.ubuntu.com/49583/ | 07:15 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | Id really like to play with 2 Os's | 07:15 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | Amiga os and Mac os | 07:15 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | I wonder how easy this would be under ubuntu | 07:15 |
|---|
| bastid_raZor | ^Devious^; Mac in a VM is not practical | 07:17 |
|---|
| judgen | ^Devious^ Very. All you need is a MacOS CD + basilisk/pearpc app. For amiga you need UAE a Amiga rom file and the amigaOS cd. then youre set to go. | 07:17 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | ahh but I have amiga 3.9 - I've heard problems with doing that in UAE - speed etc etc ....Ialthough it would be good hey | 07:17 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | I heard that its one of the best systems for graphics and pure speed | 07:17 |
|---|
| judgen | ^Devious^ works fine over here though. | 07:18 |
|---|
| Circs | A program is asking me to "make" the binary, I am totally lost... I have no idea even where to start. | 07:18 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | judgen can you pm me shortly? | 07:18 |
|---|
| Blaenk | does anyone here know about apache? if I have a folder in my home directory that I want to show up in my site, but my htdocs directory is elsewhere, how can I accomplish this? | 07:18 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | ^Devious^: mac in a vm isn´t anything special.... what a surprise.... no seriously is runs slow in a vm | 07:18 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | it* | 07:18 |
|---|
| judgen | ^Devious^ well you are going to emulate the experience, not even close to the same feeling. Also the UAE isnt perfect so expect crashes when multitasking. | 07:18 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | brandom - feel like pm shortly? | 07:19 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | interested in both for later project | 07:19 |
|---|
| zeno | unop: works great thanks! would be sort of neat for mv and cp to have a % bar on a separate note | 07:19 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | I have about 50gb hard disk space to mess with | 07:19 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | +200 spare if need be but on non boot sata card | 07:19 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | ive heard with Mac os - that its actually faster on some normal X86 machines!!! | 07:20 |
|---|
| ^Devious^ | than an actual mac - they couldnt explain it | 07:20 |
|---|
| unop | zeno, you can use something like cpipe to give you a progress bar | 07:20 |
|---|
| unop | zeno, though, i don't think it'd work with cp or mv | 07:20 |
|---|
| zeno | unop: hmmm what reason would the new drive be slow as hell? | 07:21 |
|---|
| unop | zeno, what kind of drive is it? | 07:22 |
|---|
| zeno | works fine but ive been copying files for 3 mins and only 43MB used. could be because xfs to ext3? | 07:22 |
|---|
| Blaenk | can someone help me give user 'bob' access rights to a particular folder called 'test' ? | 07:22 |
|---|
| Blaenk | please? | 07:22 |
|---|
| friedtofu | any suggestions for an RSS feed app? | 07:22 |
|---|
| zeno | unop: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148274 | 07:23 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | Blaenk: take a look at chmod --help | 07:23 |
|---|
| zeno | more like 3MB/sec | 07:23 |
|---|
| judgen | Anyone know of an nice minimal WM that iconofies windows when minimized? | 07:23 |
|---|
| jim_p | friedtofu: conky!!! or lifearea of course | 07:23 |
|---|
| jim_p | judgen: fluxbox or openbox + some panel like pypanel, bmpanel. fbpanel | 07:24 |
|---|
| unop | zeno, 3MB/Sec - is that what you are getting at the moment? | 07:24 |
|---|
| jim_p | judgen: or tint | 07:24 |
|---|
| zeno | unop: yup. could be caues XFS and transferring from ext3? | 07:24 |
|---|
| mikeyfbi | has anyone here had an issue with hardy being much slower than gusty? | 07:25 |
|---|
| mikeyfbi | my gusty install was so slick, fast, clean, wonderful | 07:25 |
|---|
| cibertito | hello everyone | 07:25 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | Blaenk: you could do chmod a+rwx /path/to/test | 07:25 |
|---|
| mikeyfbi | but i did a fresh install to hardy...and everything seems sluggish and choppy | 07:25 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | How would this video card run under Ubuntu? http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/searchtools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=3301409&csid=ITD&body=QA#tabs | 07:25 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | Blaenk: with sudo | 07:25 |
|---|
| mikeyfbi | everything from switching desktops in compiz to opening and running programs with alt+2 | 07:25 |
|---|
| Blaenk | brandonmpace: okay thanks, but I just want to give this particular user access rights, and the folder is already at 777 even | 07:25 |
|---|
| jim_p | mikeyfbi: try disabling stuff you dont need through sysvconfig | 07:25 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | EVGA GeForce 6200 Video Card - 256MB DDR2, PCI, DVI, VGA, TV Out, Video Card | 07:25 |
|---|
| jim_p | redvamp128: surely it will run, why? | 07:26 |
|---|
| unop | zeno, hmm, not sure - you could use hdparm on the device and find out what the actual access speed is | 07:26 |
|---|
| mikeyfbi | jim_p problem is i'm not sure what i do/do not need ;) how exactly would i do that as well..just sudo sysvconfig in terminal? | 07:26 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | Blaenk: type sudo nautilus navigate to the folder, right click> properties> permissions | 07:26 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | I just want to make sure before I spend 50$ | 07:26 |
|---|
| Blaenk | brandonmpace: will try that as a last resort as I'm in the terminal right now | 07:26 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | Right now am running -- Intel with all effects turned off. | 07:27 |
|---|
| Blaenk | do you know the command lin equivalent? | 07:27 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | redvamp128: that would run great | 07:27 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | And am saving up again - to rebuy the same mobo that got stolen. | 07:27 |
|---|
| databridge_ | can i get rich with ubuntu? | 07:27 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | redvamp128: lol right now i´m running intel GMA X3100 in my laptop with all effects on except for aquarium | 07:28 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | I used to have Amd64 and ATI 9600 | 07:28 |
|---|
| unop | databridge_, ubuntu is a platform for possibilities - never say never. | 07:28 |
|---|
| databridge_ | :) | 07:28 |
|---|
| |Steve| | Blaenk: If the permissions are 0777, then all users have read, write, and execute privs. | 07:28 |
|---|
| OmgItsAshark | can anybody help me with pidgen??? | 07:28 |
|---|
| jim_p | databridge_: i think not. richer in knowledge, surely | 07:28 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | I had artifacts (mouse drags) with minimal effects | 07:28 |
|---|
| unop | brandonmpace, Blaenk - never use sudo with graphical applications - use gksudo instead | 07:28 |
|---|
| unop | Blaenk, gksudo nautilus | 07:28 |
|---|
| Blaenk | unop: haven't, and will | 07:28 |
|---|
| Blaenk | |Steve|: well I'm still getting this problem :/ | 07:29 |
|---|
| OmgItsAshark | anybody know if pidgen has a irc channel | 07:29 |
|---|
| chubs | unop, not like it matters | 07:29 |
|---|
| OmgItsAshark | i need to know how to get cams to work on it | 07:29 |
|---|
| zeno | unop: Timing buffered disk reads: 216 MB in 3.01 seconds = 71.64 MB/sec | 07:29 |
|---|
| unop | chubs, it matter a great deal | 07:29 |
|---|
| Odd-rationale | Blaenk: might also want to try with -R to make it recursive: sudo chmod -R 777 /path/to/fle | 07:29 |
|---|
| zeno | odd.... how do i time writes? | 07:29 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | unop: ok thanks, I just knew that sudo does work with graphical apps too though | 07:29 |
|---|
| chubs | unop, explain please | 07:29 |
|---|
| |Steve| | What does gksudo do different from sudo? | 07:29 |
|---|
| jim_p | OmgItsAshark: there is a channel names #pidgin | 07:29 |
|---|
| bastid_raZor | OmgItsAshark; #pidgin | 07:29 |
|---|
| OmgItsAshark | hnks | 07:29 |
|---|
| Odd-rationale | !gksudo | 07:29 |
|---|
| ubottu | If you need to run graphical applications as root, use « gksudo », as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Never just use "sudo"! (See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo to know why) | 07:29 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | The reason why I ask is that I can get a ATI PCI 9550 for 30$ | 07:30 |
|---|
| unop | zeno, hmm, that's quite slow for SATA - but still doesn't explain 3Mb/S | 07:30 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | But people say ati driver is not really that great | 07:30 |
|---|
| databridge_ | what does ubuntu different from windows? | 07:30 |
|---|
| OmgItsAshark | alot of stuff | 07:30 |
|---|
| unop | zeno, things like RAM capacity and CPU speed have an effect on overall throughput - especially with big files | 07:30 |
|---|
| chubs | unop, so it doesn't matter a great deal, as we said | 07:30 |
|---|
| zeno | unop: i have a fast processor and 4GB ram | 07:31 |
|---|
| jim_p | |Steve|: gksudo will prompt you with a window with a box to enter your pass and it is used for gui apps only | 07:31 |
|---|
| Starn_ | does anyone know how to acesses linux partition on a external hd from windows? | 07:31 |
|---|
| Odd-rationale | redvamp128: i have an ati card. and i can use the open source ati drivers with full visual effects... :D | 07:31 |
|---|
| unop | chubs, you obviously haven't read the link, have you? | 07:31 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | I like the flexibility- I have Xubuntu/Xubuntu/LXDE/KUBUNTU desktop | 07:31 |
|---|
| zeno | unop: and it still writes small files slow too | 07:31 |
|---|
| chubs | unop, I just did | 07:31 |
|---|
| databridge_ | my gnome desktop went really slow and i don`t know why | 07:31 |
|---|
| frazras | Does anyone know why is XMMS not inthe hardy repos? | 07:31 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | not to mention also have-- Fluxbox installed though - | 07:31 |
|---|
| Odd-rationale | !ext3 | Starn_ | 07:31 |
|---|
| ubottu | Starn_: ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org | 07:31 |
|---|
| unop | chubs, read it again, and thoroughly - we'll discuss anything you don't infer from it | 07:31 |
|---|
| jim_p | frazras: xmms is old, use audacious | 07:31 |
|---|
| Odd-rationale | !xmms | frazras | 07:31 |
|---|
| ubottu | frazras: xmms is no longer being developed, see http://bugs.debian.org/461309 for more details. Consider using audacious, bmpx, or xmms2, bmpx, or xmms2 instead. | 07:31 |

| poenk | hi | 07:31 |
|---|
| OmgItsAshark | does anybody know how to get my windows mobile 6.1 phone to connect to xubuntu so i can teather it to the internet | 07:31 |
|---|
| databridge_ | when i listen to music or watch movie everything is playing fine but if i change some option or open another one its very slow | 07:32 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | Would the ATI 9550 run all effects? | 07:32 |
|---|
| chubs | unop, there's nothing to discuss and nothing to infer | 07:32 |
|---|
| slamFIST | so.. can you run photoshop cs3 on wine? | 07:32 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | Though funny thing--- Mpeg videos render better with Ubuntu than WMP11. in fullscreen | 07:33 |
|---|
| Odd-rationale | redvamp128: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RadeonDriver | 07:33 |
|---|
| === ce-cantik is now known as ce-cantik_ |
| brandonmpace | slamFIST: yes but there are problems. CS2 runs fine though | 07:33 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | I am not opposed to running closed source drivers. | 07:34 |
|---|
| shubbar | why is this command "$xml = trim( file_get_contents($path) )" not working on my local LAMP server ? | 07:34 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | redvamp128: I have never had ANY problems with the OFFICIAL ati driver, I have only owned regular radeons though, not radeon HD. so if it is a regular radeon, you should not have problems | 07:34 |
|---|
| OmgItsAshark | anybody know of a program that will take place of microsoft synce for my windows 6.1 phone | 07:35 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | My only limit is that this is a Hp Pavillion XT846 with no- AGP- | 07:35 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | but was an easy find for 100$ to replace stolen one... | 07:35 |
|---|
| unop | chubs, there clearly is - sudo does not run a command as root, it merely changes your EUID to 0 - allowing the process you invoke to the superuser - but sudo does not clear your environment, so it preserves things like your $HOME, $USER, $SHELL, etc variables | 07:35 |

| bunnyto | how to move the bottom taskbar to somewhere else?? | 07:35 |
|---|
| chubs | unop, I'm aware. | 07:35 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | Only did one upgrade--- Replaced Celeron 800 with P III 900 | 07:35 |
|---|
| unop | chubs, - so graphical applications that use these variables to create files, create files that the user does not have access to - leading to unexpected and erroneous results once the app is run as normal user again. gksudo gets around this by resetting the varialbes that matter | 07:36 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | and upped memory to 512mb | 07:36 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | KDE4 runs but runs slow -- and was thinking about the upgrade to render it smoother. | 07:36 |
|---|
| unop | chubs, a lot of people experience this problem here as a result of inaccurately using sudo with firefox - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=201488 | 07:36 |

| zeno | redvamp128: maybe try e17? | 07:37 |
|---|
| bunnyto | HELP how to move the bottom taskbar to somewhere else?? | 07:37 |
|---|
| zeno | eyecandy and good on old hardware | 07:37 |
|---|
| zeno | bunnyto: click and drag | 07:37 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | bunnyto: simply click and drag | 07:37 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | I thought the only time you need to run FF with sudo- is when you want to check for updates to firefox. | 07:37 |
|---|
| bunnyto | thanks | 07:37 |
|---|
| bunnyto | it was locked | 07:37 |
|---|
| unop | chubs, now, you should see why it matters and why gksu was written in the first place - and therefore, used appropriately. | 07:38 |
|---|
| chubs | unop, there is no reason to be running firefox with sudo anyways | 07:38 |
|---|
| Odd-rationale | redvamp128: no. ff does not need sudo to update it's addons... | 07:38 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | lol | 07:38 |
|---|
| unop | chubs, try telling that to the flock of users who do so anyway. | 07:38 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | No I mean to use the Check for FF updates | 07:38 |
|---|
| chubs | unop, my point was that the consequences are not as dire as you make them out to be | 07:38 |
|---|
| Cheeky | cany one .. please hlep me with apache2 server errors when i restartthe server ? | 07:38 |
|---|
| unop | chubs, which happens to be what we do all the time in here | 07:38 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | addons update just fine without sudo | 07:38 |
|---|
| sh4lindev | Cheeky: what kind of errors? :) | 07:39 |
|---|
| chubs | unop, yes but in certain cases it's a little bit silly | 07:39 |
|---|
| unop | chubs, the consequences are not dire - but they can be avoided clearly | 07:39 |
|---|
| unop | chubs, and that's what we aim to do in here - collision-avoidance | 07:39 |
|---|
| zeno | chubs: if it doesnt work -- run it with sudo! Its like kicking the TV! | 07:39 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | Without sudo the "help" check for updates is greyed out. | 07:39 |
|---|
| chubs | unop, understood. I just think the scare tactics can be a bit much | 07:39 |
|---|
| unop | chubs, it's channel policy | 07:40 |
|---|
| Cheeky | sh4lindev: http://paste.ubuntu.com/49583/ | 07:40 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | so gksu would enable you to run as su? | 07:40 |
|---|
| === freaky[t] is now known as fReAkY[t] |
| brandonmpace | lol you must use gksudo or your pc will spit fire!! lo | 07:40 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | lol | 07:40 |
|---|
| unop | redvamp128, depends on how it is invoked | 07:40 |
|---|
| zeno | redvamp128: i think gksu is sudo with a gtk popup for your password | 07:40 |
|---|
| unop | zeno, it can be a front-end for su if used accordingly | 07:41 |
|---|
| Lanlost | *cough*.. so I updated my system and apon reboot I couldn't log in. This wouldn't be such a huge issue (I have /home and /usr on separate partitions) if | 07:41 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | I would envoke sudo firefox from xterm anyhow | 07:41 |
|---|
| Lanlost | .. well .. I guess it screwed up my partition table or something | 07:41 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | no need for a popup | 07:41 |
|---|
| unop | redvamp128, that's silly | 07:41 |
|---|
| Lanlost | I am running from a live cd (LinuxMint.. a derivative of Hardy) | 07:41 |
|---|
| Cheeky | sh4lindev: do you know these errors? | 07:42 |
|---|
| Lanlost | and I can't mount my ntfs drive. It says I need to run checkdisk on the drive with /f and login to windows twice. I can't do this however.. my windows installation has been broken for quite some time because I can't find the cd | 07:42 |
|---|
| sh4lindev | sh4lindev: well, this is quite common - you needn't care about these, it says your server is not able to get his default domain name (i.e. a reverse A DSN record does was not found for translating IP => server name) | 07:42 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | Though will only need to update firefox when they officially release a new update-- and I have seen that others have not had issues with it (usually a month or 2 after the release) | 07:42 |
|---|
| chubs | unop, I believe you, but do you have a link to this policy or is it among the ops/council only? I've read the guidelines before and reread them when you said that, I'm curious | 07:42 |
|---|
| Cheeky | sh4lindev: i installed apacher 2 php mysql and also .. phpmyadmin | 07:42 |
|---|
| |Steve| | So just use su -c? | 07:43 |
|---|
| Lanlost | however, I have 80 gigs or so of really important material.. I know what you would say, should have backed it up.. but most of it was. I'm just not sure what is backed up and what isn't | 07:43 |
|---|
| Lanlost | Is there anyway to run a fsck type thing on an ntfs drive? | 07:43 |
|---|
| sh4lindev | Cheeky: well, as i've said, you needn't care about these errors | 07:43 |
|---|
| darkbishop | hai all... how do i start my wine.i install wine... but i try to install setup.exe.... but i dont know how... ahand plzz | 07:43 |
|---|
| darkbishop | !wine | 07:43 |
|---|
| ubottu | WINE is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information, and see !AppDB for application compatibility. | 07:43 |
|---|
| Lanlost | All the data has to be there... I'm just not sure what happened that has made it unreadable | 07:43 |
|---|
| Odd-rationale | darkbishop: usually you do "wine setup.exe" | 07:43 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | |Steve|: I remember su -c on fedora 6 lol | 07:44 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | What setup are you trying to run? | 07:44 |
|---|
| Odd-rationale | darkbishop: but, yeah... see that wiki page ... | 07:44 |
|---|
| redvamp128 | You can download wine from synaptic | 07:44 |
|---|
| unop | chubs, I don't think it's documented somewhere - but it doesn't have to be, it's just widely accepted for the interests of a majority of users being supported here. | 07:44 |
|---|
| sh4lindev | Cheeky: they can be removed by changing the configuration files of apache under /etc/apache2/sites-available/default | 07:44 |
|---|
| Cheeky | sh4lindev: ok .. then how do i know iam running php and my apacjhe om the sever box ? | 07:44 |

| sh4lindev | sh4lindev: well, better don't care about these, cause changing the configuration might bring other issues. Unless these errors during the server start bring any troubless, keep the configuration files, or read http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/core.html#servername | 07:49 |

| orbisvicis | does it implement multicast dns ? | 08:40 |
|---|
| unop | Cheeky, starting with apache2 (on debian atleast) - the default config file is /etc/apache2/apache.conf | 08:40 |
|---|
| orbisvicis | i.e. will it detect network printers ? | 08:40 |
|---|
| orbisvicis | and will it autodetect cifs shares ? | 08:40 |
|---|
| Cheeky | unop: this is the doc iam following to set it up :http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/apache-server-status/ | 08:41 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | orbisvicis: usually you can get to network printers | 08:41 |
|---|
| orbisvicis | just asking b/c i dont see any outgoing mDNS queries in syslog | 08:41 |
|---|
| Cheeky | unop: i see a files saying apache.cnf | 08:41 |
|---|
| unop | that howto won't apply to ubuntu - it uses the wrong files | 08:42 |
|---|
| orbisvicis | brandonmpace: do you know if it autodetects windows file sharing ? | 08:42 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | orbisvicis: it is supposed to | 08:42 |
|---|
| Cheeky | unop: ojk .. dam | 08:42 |
|---|
| unop | Cheeky, always search for ubuntu related content first - then perhaps debian and the rest - that way you'll find stuff relevant to you. | 08:43 |
|---|
| unop | Cheeky, http://www.debuntu.org/apache-activity-performance-mod_status | 08:43 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | orbisvicis: it did for me | 08:43 |
|---|
| Cheeky | unop: ill check it out | 08:43 |
|---|
| Cheeky | unop: doesnt torrent downlaods ..slow your computer down .. the page loading time .. or is it coz i have another unbunter running on my LAN ..? | 08:44 |
|---|
| Cheeky | unop: that site you gave me is taking ages to download in firefox .. ubuntu never ran this SLo W .. | 08:45 |
|---|

|---|
| bunnyto | im going to suicide | 08:45 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | bunnyto: ? | 08:45 |
|---|
| bastid_raZor | Cheeky; of course you can slow your internet to a crawl if you don't limit your upload and download speeds | 08:45 |
|---|
| Cheeky | unop: yeah .. eveb bad when the file you downloading is going @ 59 K... slow compared to how windows ran utorrent | 08:45 |

| edp | Assargadon, from the xorg.conf | 08:46 |
|---|
| Assargadon | edp, I don't think so | 08:46 |
|---|
| Assargadon | I mean, there are 17 modes in xorg.conf | 08:46 |

| brandonmpace | orbisvicis: I´m sure there is a way. I don´t have cifs | 08:46 |

|---|
| peepsalot | i messed up my graphics settings by installing a different kernel, i think i got the graphics drivers working again, but I can't change my resolution above 640x480 | 08:47 |
|---|
| bunnyto | ubuntu makes me hurt myself... | 08:47 |
|---|
| unop | Cheeky, it's not just that - torrent clients open up 100s of connections concurrently - you have to factor in the bandwidth usage of all those connections too - then you have much more than 59kbps | 08:47 |
|---|
| antiderivative | I tried installing ubuntu on a P45 chipset and then I got brought into BusyBox | 08:47 |
|---|
| orbisvicis | brandonmpace: maybe im not configuring netfilter correctly, but that type of autodetection requires mDNS queries, and syslog isnt recording those | 08:47 |

| bastid_raZor | Cheeky; some torrent applications in ubuntu give you the ability to limit how many connections per torrent or even limit global connections. | 08:48 |

|---|

|---|
| edp | Quartermaster1, no, it's quicker than dows lol | 08:51 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | Assargadon: /etc/X11/xorg.conf | 08:51 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | Assargadon: there may be too many for it to display | 08:52 |
|---|
| Assargadon | brandonmpace: I have 19 resolutions in file you told about, and 10 only in applet. | 08:52 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | Assargadon: there may be too many for it to display | 08:52 |
|---|
| Cheeky | unop: can i paste pin my apache.conf file ? | 08:52 |
|---|
| Assargadon | I changed "1280x960" resolution in every section of my xorg.conf to "1280x961". Then I restarted x-server via ctrl+alt+backspace. But in screen resolution manager's list 1280x960 keeps alive, not 961. | 08:58 |
|---|
| Assargadon | Should I restrat whole ubuntu for it? | 08:58 |
|---|
| bastid_raZor | Assargadon; you can't make up resolutions | 08:59 |
|---|
| Assargadon | Or screen resolution manager gets his list from some other source? | 08:59 |
|---|
| Cheeky | unop: you there? | 08:59 |
|---|
| Assargadon | bastid_raZor: what dp you mean? | 08:59 |
|---|
| bastid_raZor | Assargadon; you can't make up resolutions | 09:00 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | Assargadon: I have deleted every resolution except the 3 that I need and they are the only ones that show up now..... and resolutions have to be standard resolutions lol | 09:00 |

| stdin | bullgard4: it means display 0 screen 0 on the local system; ':' is a host separator, nothing before it means "local". the 1st '0' means "display 0", the '0' after the dot means "screen 0" (useful when you have more than one monitor) | 09:30 |

|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | brandonmpace: i just find it completely appauling, worthless and it breaks stuff | 09:39 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | ah | 09:39 |
|---|
| OdnsRvns | its a nice tool i liek it | 09:39 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | remoteCTR1: it works like microsoft's charmap.exe, ive not used it but you should be able to copy / paste from it | 09:39 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | tarelerulz: you can use Amarok to add stuff to an ipod and it should put it where you tell it to | 09:40 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | brandonmpace: ive even had folks in here saying it disabled their left muse click. how retarded is that | 09:40 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | *mouse | 09:40 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | ActionParsnip1: lol never had a problem | 09:40 |
|---|
| OdnsRvns | What did | 09:40 |
|---|
| remoteCTR1 | ActionParsnip1: ah you use that to get characters that are not in your layout i get it, but that is a littlebit of a crutch as this works on my computer at home but i dunno why not here in my workplace... | 09:40 |

| xintron | I started X from the command line (with startx). Doing ctrl+alt+backspace would shutdown X and return me to that tty right? | 09:40 |

| zuhri | how to uninstall rt73 driver | 09:41 |

|---|
| OdnsRvns | i likew to multi task and a clean desktop helps | 09:41 |
|---|
| remoteCTR1 | ActionParsnip1: heh i can write like jalape~no at home and it is diplayed correct but at my workplaces workstation it doesnt, x-forwarding is NOT the solution to that :D | 09:41 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | hehe | 09:42 |

| MuLLeR | hi .. is it possible to record sound/video through a svideo jack on a tvtuner? | 09:44 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | tarelerulz: id head over to the amarok page to see what it can and cant do | 09:44 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | tarelerulz: I believe so, I can´t see it as the screen on my ipod is broken :( | 09:45 |
|---|
| remoteCTR1 | ActionParsnip1: hehehe i really appreciate your creativity man, but i am looking for the real thing... but that other link looks good, just a sec | 09:45 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | ok man | 09:45 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | remoteCTR1: i just think outside the box | 09:45 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | remoteCTR1: can you use the keyboard directly with the Alt+accent, then key, sequence? | 09:45 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | MuLLeR: Svideo jacks are usually output only, unless you have a specific one, like certain ati cards | 09:45 |
|---|
| remoteCTR1 | ¸a | 09:46 |
|---|
| remoteCTR1 | ~n | 09:46 |
|---|
| remoteCTR1 | `e | 09:46 |
|---|
| MuLLeR | brandonmpace: it's an svideo input on a tvtuner. i am able to record video but no sound | 09:46 |
|---|
| remoteCTR1 | i'd say nope | 09:46 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | remoteCTR1: Here, I press and hold the RIGHT Alt key, press Shift+~ , release, then press N | 09:46 |
|---|
| nnull | MuLLeRƺ u need somewhere to input the sound, s-video sends image only no audio | 09:46 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | MuLLeR: nnull is correct | 09:47 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | or, for an accented a, RIGHT Alt with ' , release, then a | 09:47 |
|---|
| MuLLeR | nnull: but in docs to tv-tuner is said that this is an audio-video port, and it is able to recieve composite video | 09:47 |
|---|
| remoteCTR1 | IntuitiveNipple: altGr+shift+ ~ gives me nothing... | 09:47 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | remoteCTR1: did you release and then press N ? | 09:48 |
|---|
| nnull | MuLLeRƺ is the device your sending data to this port sending compisite video tho.. | 09:48 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | remoteCTR1: you won't see anything from the Alt-Gr Shift+~ | 09:48 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | MuLLeR: I have always had to plug a cord to my audio in jack too.... never heard of svideo carrying audio | 09:48 |
|---|
| nnull | MuLLeRƺ what are u sending to the tv-tuner, vcr/dvd/cam corder or? | 09:48 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | MuLLeR: do you have a playstation or xbox? | 09:49 |
|---|
| remoteCTR1 | IntuitiveNipple: yes i did | 09:49 |
|---|
| xintron | Can I activate tv-out while running X or do I have to restart X (as I've done previously)? | 09:49 |
|---|

|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | MuLLeR: and you have those scart connectors that take, yellow, red and white? | 09:49 |
|---|
| nnull | psx tho | 09:49 |
|---|
| OdnsRvns | lol disable then enable all better now how funny | 09:49 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | remoteCTR1: OK, you need to set the Alt-Gr sequence in keyboard settings | 09:49 |
|---|
| tarelerulz | brandonmpace: Thanks for the imfo on Amarok . I have use it in the past and it was one of the best audio media player / library program I have used. | 09:49 |
|---|
| remoteCTR1 | ActionParsnip1: the link above at least works for é but unfortunately still not for the tilde that one doesnt work at all anymore:D | 09:49 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | tarelerulz: you´re welcome | 09:50 |
|---|
| remoteCTR1 | IntuitiveNipple: how would i do that? | 09:50 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | remoteCTR1: hmm, you could make your own special keystroke to generate it | 09:50 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | I'm trying to find it again now... System > Preferences > Keyboard | 09:50 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | remoteCTR1: like a shortcut key vombo but all it does is type n~ | 09:50 |
|---|
| nnull | brandonmpaceƺ ive never heard of s-video carrying audio either, but even if it was the case i doubt the device hes sending data from to the tv tuner card would support it.. | 09:50 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | remoteCTR1: Layouts | 09:50 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | remoteCTR1: "Layout options" button | 09:51 |

|---|
| Fuse_ | What date exactly does 8.10 come out? | 09:53 |

|---|
| remoteCTR1 | IntuitiveNipple: gosh this behaviour is weird when i hit window+shift then TWICE a i get å | 09:55 |

| IntuitiveNipple | remoteCTR1: Why not try setting the Compose to Right Ctrl | 09:56 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | danny_: depends on how you want it to behave | 09:56 |

|---|
| lunacia | still no sound | 09:58 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | remoteCTR1: what layout is the keyboard? | 09:58 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | sarthor: and your screen works fine when you boot ubuntu? | 09:58 |
|---|
| remoteCTR1 | IntuitiveNipple: can it be that i need some different layout like dead acute or i dunno what? | 09:58 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | remoteCTR1: the physical keyboard layout can cause different results | 09:58 |
|---|
| visik7 | lunacia: cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp produce any sound ? | 09:58 |
|---|
| tarelerulz | When putting music on the ipod can you have a whole ablum in the same order it is on the cd ? | 09:58 |

| visik7 | ? | 09:59 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | remoteCTR1: hmmm | 09:59 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | tarelerulz: I am not sure, but you can try putting the track number at the beginning of the file name eg.> 01. 02. 03. | 10:00 |
|---|
| lunacia | never mind *giggle* I seeped to have paused it somehow | 10:00 |
|---|
| OdnsRvns | Sarthor | i dont think this has anything with ubuntu this seems more of a MOBO issue that its not reading the xp disk is it a good disk or like a iso download | 10:00 |
|---|
| remoteCTR1 | other question: normally when i do dpkg-reconfigure locales i get a dialog where i can chose from all of thos layouts and utf8 or iso-something and so on, why does that not work with ubuntu? | 10:00 |
|---|
| sarthor | OdnsRvns, its a good Disk, i can install xp from this CD on other computer. | 10:00 |
|---|
| lunacia | But no sound. | 10:00 |
|---|
| sarthor | my CD drive is 100% fit. | 10:01 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | remoteCTR1: maybe xorg.conf is trying to set that as well... something like: Option "XkbOptions" "compose:rwin" which will fight/conflict | 10:01 |
|---|
| OdnsRvns | Santhor | How many CD drive oar in the pc | 10:01 |

| brandonmpace | lunacia: When ubuntu 8.10 comes out on October 30th, be sure to try a clean install of that, as it supports more hardware | 10:01 |

| remoteCTR1 | ActionParsnip1: IntuitiveNipple: what i just realized by xmodmap -pke is that Alt_R doesn't occur there at all so can this be a X settings problem??? | 10:16 |

| OdnsRvns | i cant remeber the last time i got a questions answered in 5 mins | 10:16 |

| ActionParsnip1 | brandonmpace: the file is a compressed cedega so he wont be compiling as their is no source for cedega | 10:16 |

| bullgard4 | Why does "Search for Files " not find 'places.sqlite' although locate finds 3 files? | 10:20 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | OdnsRvns: try with sudo | 10:20 |
|---|
| dyllan | hi all. | 10:20 |

| remoteCTR1 | atul: currently you can only crypt whole partitions, see http://luks.endorphin.org/ | 10:20 |

| brandonmpace | OmgItsAshark: amsn for msn | 10:20 |
|---|
| atul_ | i will try tht | 10:20 |
|---|
| OdnsRvns | ok whats the sudo | 10:20 |
|---|
| xlq | bullgard4: possibly because a) your locate database is out of date or b) you're searching in the wrong way/wrong place, with "Search for Files" | 10:20 |
|---|
| xlq | !sudo | OdnsRvns | 10:20 |

| ubottu | OdnsRvns: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !gksu (Gnome), or !kdesu (KDE) | 10:20 |

| dyllan | I am having trouble installing plugins for firefox (flash,java) i have gone into Synaptic and found the flash-plugin as well as sun-jre, installed them both but when i test the plugins in firefox it still seems not to be installed correctly, any advice? - thanks | 10:21 |

| da | hi | 10:21 |
|---|
| OdnsRvns | yea im sorry this is my first week on ubuntu and i love it | 10:21 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | dyllan: you on 64bit or 32bit? | 10:21 |
|---|
| OdnsRvns | but the command i dont have down yet | 10:21 |
|---|
| dyllan | Hi ActionParsnip1; i am on 32bit | 10:21 |
|---|
| jussi01 | dyllan: install ubuntu-restricted-extras | 10:21 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | dyllan: yep...jussi01 hit it on the head | 10:22 |
|---|
| remoteCTR1 | dyllan: ActionParsnip1: sudo apt-get install swf-player | 10:22 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | night all, gonna go to sleep | 10:23 |
|---|
| brandonmpace | 4:23 here lol | 10:23 |
|---|
| bullgard4 | xlq: I disagree. a) If my locate database was ot of date then locate would not find 3 files. b) I am searching the whole file system with "Search for Files". | 10:23 |
|---|
| omac | dyllan...yeah the flash plug in should work without issues after rebooting your machine. The sun stuff also wants to install the docs, but there are errors. If you let it auto install, you will not see the doc not installed error. use aptitude instead. You should see the error and deal with it accordingly. | 10:23 |
|---|
| dyllan | jussi01, ActionParsnip1, remoteCTR1: thanks guys ill give it a go ! | 10:23 |
|---|
| xlq | bullgard4: hmm. Don't know then. | 10:23 |
|---|
| OmgItsAshark | what would be the terminal command to install the amsn | 10:23 |
|---|
| remoteCTR1 | dyllan: np | 10:24 |
|---|
| dyllan | ok omac, thnx | 10:24 |
|---|
| airtonix | remoteCTR1: thats a standalone player | 10:24 |
|---|
| xlq | OmgItsAshark: sudo aptitude install amsn | 10:24 |
|---|
| jussi01 | dyllan: dont forget to restart firefox after installing ;) | 10:24 |
|---|
| airtonix | dyllan: just be aware that remoteCTR1 has given you instructions for installing a standalone flash player | 10:24 |
|---|
| remoteCTR1 | jussi01: does that extras flashplayer plugin work better with 64bit ubuntu then the swf-player? | 10:24 |
|---|
| OmgItsAshark | thanks | 10:24 |

| remoteCTR1 | airtonix: but it also works with firefox? | 10:25 |
|---|
| Cybertinus | I'm trying to install Ubuntu in VMWare Server | 10:25 |
|---|
| Cybertinus | but I get some errors when I try to install VMWare Tools | 10:26 |
|---|
| airtonix | remoteCTR1: being a standalone application i wouldnt think so | 10:26 |
|---|
| Cybertinus | does anyone know a HowTo which tells me how to install Ubuntu in VMWare server? | 10:26 |
|---|
| remoteCTR1 | airtonix: now that is complete news to me-.- | 10:26 |
|---|
| airtonix | remoteCTR1: for it to work with firefox it needs to provide a plugin for firefox...afaik standalone binary rarely does that | 10:27 |
|---|
| airtonix | remoteCTR1: you can of course choose to 'open file with... -> swf-player'...just as you would a torrent file | 10:28 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | Cybertinus: http://cmsproducer.com/Ubuntu-Linux-Windows-VMware-Server | 10:29 |

|---|
| christoz | i can connect only with wired connection | 10:31 |
|---|
| airtonix | ganesh: you mean you dont have a internet connection when your at home....because your proving it otherwise here & now | 10:31 |
|---|
| Jaffarkelshac | i asked this yesterday but no reply, can you change the font colour of the gnome-panel | 10:32 |
|---|
| Fuse_ | I've heard you can | 10:32 |
|---|
| airtonix | Jaffarkelshac: that is controlled via gtk theme properties... | 10:32 |
|---|
| Fuse_ | not sure how | 10:32 |
|---|
| Cybertinus | ActionParsnip1: thnx. I found that link already, but VMWare tools isn't installed there, and I really need that ;) | 10:33 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | Cybertinus: go get it then | 10:33 |
|---|
| airtonix | Jaffarkelshac: but if you look in system -> preferences -> appearance.. you will notice that by swithcing between the colour and the controls tabs...that only some themes support the usage of the coour tab to affect the colours of common elements | 10:33 |
|---|
| Jaffarkelshac | thanks for the reply | 10:34 |
|---|
| OmgItsAshark | hey | 10:34 |
|---|
| ganesh | airtonix:i am in cyber cafe now.. i don have net at home...in india majority of computer users dont hav net.. | 10:34 |
|---|
| OmgItsAshark | is there a way to get windowsmobile 6 to connect to xubuntu so i can teather it to the internet | 10:34 |
|---|
| airtonix | Jaffarkelshac: i recommend you install ginspector if you want to work with modifying themes. | 10:34 |
|---|
| tarelerulz | I want to rip a cd have all the meta data on the songs such as artist , album and cover art and the songs to the ipod with all the meta data like artist name ext and the cover art too . What would I need to do that | 10:35 |
|---|
| Jaffarkelshac | thanks airtonix | 10:35 |
|---|
| airtonix | ganesh: if your patient you can try the shipit service ubuntu have..takes about 8 weeks i think to get a cd to you | 10:35 |
|---|
| Fuse_ | tarelerulz: you mean like a script to dump the info to a text file? | 10:35 |
|---|
| Cybertinus | ActionParsnip1: yeah, that is what I'm trying to do ;). And that is where I have problems ;) | 10:36 |
|---|
| airtonix | ganesh: but then you will also need to investigate the use of apt-mirror or maybe try some trickery with apt-on-cd when you are at the internet cafe | 10:36 |

| remoteCTR1 | airtonix: i see thanks for the insights... | 10:36 |
|---|
| remoteCTR1 | well i give in on that ~ thing ActionParsnip1 and IntuitiveNipple thanks guys! | 10:37 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | remoteCTR1: just have a text file with one in there and yu can copy / paste | 10:37 |
|---|
| AlexW | for a server, is it safer to use LTS? | 10:37 |
|---|
| C0p3rn1c | tarelerulz: I sure there are some programs like that in the software section audio/video | 10:37 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | remoteCTR1: It is annoying when things like that don't work | 10:38 |
|---|
| AlexW | if i might want a gui | 10:38 |
|---|
| ganesh | airtonix:its not the matter of cd... i managed to get dvd version itself..still i cant play any video...it asks for codec, | 10:38 |
|---|
| remoteCTR1 | ActionParsnip1: ya that is cumbersome but what i shall i do i guess i gotta do it somehow like that... | 10:38 |
|---|
| Cybertinus | ActionParsnip1: http://pastebin.com/d43668b2b <-- these are the errors I get when I try to install VMWare Tools. I've checked, but I have all the packages they mention there | 10:38 |
|---|
| tarelerulz | Fuse_ I mean a program to rip the cd first . Then load the songs onto the ipod . So the ipod would know all the meta data and have the cover art too. amarok get the cover art ,but I have no idea where it put it so I could use gktpod to put the songs on the ipod | 10:38 |
|---|
| remoteCTR1 | IntuitiveNipple: it definitely is... | 10:38 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | Cybertinus: looks like a success to me | 10:39 |
|---|
| ganesh | but other distro like suse, fedora, they come as dvd and it includes almost everything.. | 10:39 |
|---|
| ganesh | airtonix: | 10:39 |
|---|
| airtonix | ganesh: you can download the packages from packages.ubuntu.com when you work out which ones you need. | 10:39 |
|---|
| Cybertinus | ActionParsnip1: except for the compilation errors in the output.... | 10:39 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | remoteCTR1: I vaguely rememeber when I set it up on Gutsy, I had to take an additional step somewhere, but my mind is blank on what that might have been | 10:39 |

| Sk8rdude | anyone know why a samba share isnt letting people view anything past the first folder?? | 10:39 |

| smm281 | if im running XP on a VM under ubuntu, do I need to install an anti-virus program ? | 10:40 |

|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | Cybertinus: sudo apt-get install vmware-player | 10:41 |
|---|
| AlexW | for a server, is it safer to use LTS? if i want a gui? | 10:41 |
|---|
| dyllan | Ok guys the installation on 'ubuntu-restricted' helped with java, but flash is still not working, i confirmed this by checking about:plugins, any ideas? Secondly i have a downloaded program that i need to be root to install, sudo is not working, i tried installing konsole but it still does not give me root access? | 10:41 |
|---|
| AlexW | i.e. Install LTS then ubuntu-desktop | 10:41 |

|---|
| AlexW | ActionParsnip1: which is the better option then? | 10:42 |
|---|
| tarelerulz | What I did was use other program to convert the song into mp3 and then found it with gtkpod and try to add it to my ipod and it said something about not being able to convert the song . I mean it did not need to convert it in the first place | 10:42 |
|---|
| Sk8rdude | dyllan: which browser are you using? | 10:42 |
|---|
| smm281 | running XP in a VM under ubuntu, do I still need to run a virus program like AVG ? | 10:42 |

|---|
| Sk8rdude | in that list will be the firefox plugin that you want | 10:44 |
|---|
| C0p3rn1c | transkode* | 10:44 |

| Sk8rdude | so does anyone have any ideas about why samba isnt letting people view 2 folders deep? | 10:46 |
|---|
| smm281 | I find using add/remove... is better than synaptic when looking for installable applications, I know they are pretty much the same thing, but Add/Remove... seems to work better for applications and synaptic for packages. Synaptic will give u the same thing but Add/Remove only displays the applications that give you a GUI front end. Am I correct in this description? | 10:47 |

| airtonix | tarelerulz: its a depressing issue...my next mp3 device will be one that wont require all this guff...shame since the ipoid hardware is awesome..jus the software sucks arse....pretty much why i removed the appleos and used rockbox instead | 10:58 |
|---|
| roxan | smm281, no it wont notice | 10:58 |
|---|
| Sch | can i move to a rome | 10:58 |

| Sch | when i know it's name | 10:58 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | smm281: you dont get 3d accelleration in virtual systems | 10:58 |
|---|
| roxan | smm281, it will only see the svga card | 10:58 |
|---|
| Alpha232 | smm281: every device is "generic" | 10:58 |
|---|
| smm281 | ok | 10:58 |
|---|
| nnull | roxanƺ i say Save to X configuration file, its pointing at /etc/X11/xorg.conf is this right or? | 10:58 |
|---|
| OmgItsAshark | ya know what i love most about ubuntu | 10:58 |
|---|
| Sch | or do i have to change the network | 10:58 |
|---|
| airtonix | tarelerulz: only thing is ...rockbox doesnt do video ... well it does but not as good as the appleos and not easier... | 10:58 |
|---|
| OmgItsAshark | i bought a new printer | 10:58 |
|---|
| OmgItsAshark | didnt install a damn driver | 10:59 |
|---|
| roxan | ActionParsnip1, smm281 you can get 3 d acceleration. try googling | 10:59 |
|---|
| OmgItsAshark | and it works perfectly | 10:59 |
|---|
| roxan | nnull are you root? | 10:59 |
|---|
| airtonix | tarelerulz: but everything else about rockbox is pretty much awesome | 10:59 |
|---|
| tarelerulz | airtonix: I have looked up rockbox and the gui don't look that slick compared to the ui on the ipod. That to me is the best thing of the ipod. | 10:59 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | OmgItsAshark: then its very linux friendly | 10:59 |
|---|
| roxan | OmgItsAshark, thats ubuntu for you | 10:59 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | smm281: Some VM hypervisors will accelerate OpenGL, for example Qemu is introducing that | 10:59 |
|---|
| zafle | what is the ibex channel again? | 10:59 |

| airtonix | tarelerulz: the default skin for rockbox is not too god...you should look at the while playing screen themes.. | 10:59 |
|---|
| nnull | kk i try | 10:59 |
|---|
| Sch | ok | 10:59 |
|---|
| Sch | bye all of ya | 10:59 |

| smm281 | XP VM, should I be able to run it in full screen 1280x800, i try enabling full screen but the resolution it gives me does not fit nice on the widescreen laptop | 11:00 |
|---|
| Sch | i am going to try to find my friends | 11:00 |
|---|
| Sch | thanks for all | 11:00 |
|---|
| zafle | ubottu yeah i noticed lol | 11:00 |
|---|
| ubottu | Error: I am only a bot, please don't think I'm intelligent :) | 11:00 |
|---|
| Sch | :) | 11:00 |
|---|
| airtonix | tarelerulz: the strength of rockbox is that you dont require an itunes application to put music on your ipod... | 11:00 |
|---|
| hischild | Hello. I have a CD that has a minimal iso burned on it, yet i would like to install ubuntu. I have the ISO on an external drive but i am not able to burn CD's (no empty cd's). Is this possible to do somehow? | 11:00 |
|---|
| Sch | have nice day | 11:00 |
|---|
| roxan | sm281 if you install guest OS tool you can have lots of resolution | 11:00 |
|---|
| nnull | roxanƺ seems to of worked find out when i reboot cheers | 11:00 |
|---|
| IntuitiveNipple | smm281: Depends on the hypervisor and what video hardware it emulates, and resolutions supported | 11:00 |
|---|
| nnull | im just looking at data encryption, is there a better way then using aespipe mkisofs loop-aes-util's ? 256bit seems like low level encryption? like ssh uses 4096 or something doesn't it? pleeaze explain | 11:00 |
|---|
| smm281 | Ya, i'm lost, Im using VirtualBoX OSE | 11:01 |
|---|
| roxan | nnull, you question itself is too tough to emplain :P | 11:01 |
|---|
| tarelerulz | airtonix: I have try looking up media player that are as good as the ipod and not found any. I mean playing videos in more then one format and audio too and most of all the storage | 11:01 |
|---|
| airtonix | tarelerulz: rockbox can also display text files many thousands of pages long ... imo all appleos has over rockbox is the skin, its video and its power management | 11:01 |
|---|
| roxan | tarelerulz, i like vlc | 11:01 |
|---|
| patok | hi, is it possible to use wget as a downloader for apt-get? thx | 11:01 |
|---|
| airtonix | roxan: talking in terms of portable players and usage with linux | 11:01 |
|---|
| nnull | roxanƺ :x | 11:02 |
|---|
| airtonix | patok: gwget | 11:02 |
|---|
| MuLLeR | how to access hw:0,0 as /dev/dspX ? :) | 11:02 |
|---|
| airtonix | !gwget | patok | 11:02 |
|---|
| ubottu | Sorry, I don't know anything about gwget | 11:02 |
|---|
| roxan | airtonix, portable? | 11:02 |
|---|
| smm281 | Im still amazed at how well XP is running in a VM under ubuntu, other than the screen size I would not no it was a VM | 11:02 |
|---|
| airtonix | roxan: portable like an ipod | 11:02 |
|---|
| roxan | airtonix, ipod is a hardware. | 11:02 |
|---|
| roxan | airtonix, its supposed to b e portable. | 11:03 |
|---|
| tarelerulz | airtonix: I mean if I did not need to convert myself at all. that would be great. that is the one thing that is lame about most media players. They do mp3 and mpeg4 and that is pretty much it | 11:03 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | tarelerulz: iriver support ogg vorbis and m3u playlists | 11:03 |
|---|
| tarelerulz | mp3 is not big deal it is easy to convert them ,but video converting sucks. it one did xvid would be great | 11:03 |
|---|
| zafle | tarelerulz a lot of mp3 players and media players are capable of ogg now | 11:03 |
|---|
| zafle | such as meizu mini | 11:04 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | tarelerulz: or you can install rockbox and give your mp3 player some power | 11:04 |
|---|
| linux_ | hi ppl | 11:04 |
|---|
| gavi | hey folks, i have a computer which had 256 mb ddr of ram not sure ths side bus speed, but i took it out and replaced it with a 512 ddr 400mhz and i dont feel any improvement. is it because its ddr400? | 11:04 |
|---|
| zafle | gavi: your comp should be capable of more tasks now | 11:04 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | gavi: ram allows more simultaneous tasks as well as less swapping | 11:04 |
|---|
| tarelerulz | audio in ogg is fine ,but I have yet to find one that does audio in more then one format and video too and has 30 gb or 80 like the ipod. show me that and I am there | 11:05 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | gavi: cant you have both sticks in? | 11:05 |
|---|
| gavi | zafle, but i dont notice much of a difference. i removed all the startup keys | 11:05 |
|---|
| patok | airtonix: why gwget? apt-get is TUI utility, so I seek for ability to use TUI downloader as well. | 11:05 |
|---|
| airtonix | roxan: you misunderstanding the thread of our discussion :) | 11:05 |
|---|
| gavi | ActionParsnip1, computer acts funny with both together | 11:05 |
|---|
| linux_ | can some one tell me a software like vista sidebar but in the bat to show me cp usage memory availabel etc... network monitor | 11:05 |
|---|
| zafle | tarelerulz check out dapreview.net | 11:05 |
|---|
| gavi | would i expirenec better results with pci2800 or pci3200 | 11:05 |

| ubottu | Screenlets are little widgets for your !desktop. Note you must have !Compiz Fusion, !Beryl, xcompmgr, or KWin to run them. You can get them at http://www.screenlets.org/ | 11:06 |
|---|
| zafle | bot is wrong screenlets run without compiz | 11:06 |

|---|
| zafle | actionparsnip: i had that cowon it rocked so tuff | 11:07 |
|---|
| AlexW | u can tick which mirror u want, for cli | 11:07 |
|---|
| airtonix | patok: ah sorry i misunderstood your initial question: yes it is possible...there is a page on ubuntforums that describes how i believe | 11:07 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | AlexW you can edit /etc/apt/sources.lst | 11:07 |
|---|
| smm281 | I wanna remove the little vista sticker on my laptop and replace it with an Ubuntu one :D | 11:07 |
|---|
| AlexW | :P but there used to be a tool :( | 11:08 |
|---|
| zafle | smm281: know a place where i could get a sticker | 11:08 |
|---|
| patok | airtonix: ok, I'll keep trying to find it ;) | 11:08 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | smm281: they do exists, you can ven get replacement start keys that have tux on them | 11:08 |
|---|
| airtonix | smm281: some stickers you can print out from gnome-look.org | 11:08 |

| Rotel | ive installed ubuntu 3 times but it only quick formats and leaves the errors on the hdd. | 11:12 |
|---|
| Rotel | disk scrubber will do that? | 11:12 |
|---|
| roxan | hey do you guys remeber how I can stop window from dragging between workspace | 11:12 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | Rotel: it removes the data more thoroughly so its harder to recover | 11:13 |
|---|
| Rotel | will it format in ext3 though. Like when you format a windows hdd it does a FULL format. | 11:14 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | Rotel: then you want mke2fs -j /dev/<name of partition> | 11:15 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | Rotel: it will blitz the FAT and make it ext3 and create you a journal | 11:15 |

| Rotel | its already ext3 but yeah I ill give that a try. thanks | 11:16 |

| Rotel | SIGH. can I have that command again to format my hdd please. I closed this before I wrote it down.. DUH!! | 11:20 |
|---|
| ne2k__ | ActionParsnip1: thanks, that's really helpful -- the page doesn't exist! https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto | 11:20 |

| ActionParsnip1 | Rotel: sudo mke2fs -j /dev/<name of partition> | 11:20 |
|---|
| airtonix | rotel: mke2fs -j /dev/<name of partition> | 11:20 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | Rotel: you can get the name of thepartition with sudo fdisk -l | 11:20 |
|---|
| airtonix | to slow....:( | 11:20 |
|---|
| ne2k__ | ActionParsnip1: that will not do a low-level format of a partition | 11:20 |
|---|
| Rotel | low level. are you crazy.. | 11:21 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | Rotel: if you want that then sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/<partition name> | 11:21 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | Rotel: that will hammer zeros all along the partition | 11:22 |
|---|
| Rotel | i just want a full format and not a quick format as the ubuntu live CD only does | 11:22 |
|---|
| bullgard4 | Why does "Search for Files" not find 'places.sqlite' although locate finds 3 files? "Search for Files" searches the whole file system. | 11:23 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | Rotel: make it ext3 then echo zeros to the partition | 11:23 |
|---|
| ne2k__ | Rotel: I think what you want is mke2fs -j -c -c /dev/hdXX | 11:23 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | bullgard4: maybe its some option. I always use find in command line | 11:23 |
|---|
| ne2k__ | Rotel: that will do a bad block test with slower, read-write testing | 11:23 |
|---|
| Rotel | the problem is ive installed ubuntu. then installed and APTonCD update that was made and it crashes with the hard drive having a read error. I can hear it grinding away. so the full format should, i hope, fix that. | 11:24 |
|---|
| ActionParsnip1 | Rotel: sounds like the drive is dying | 11:24 |
|---|
| Rotel | great that should help me decide if it needs replacing | 11:24 |

| ActionParsnip1 | Rotel: you could get the drive tester from the manufacturers site to fully test it | 11:25 |

|---|
| hatem1 | im running ubuntu 8.04 | 11:26 |

| mib_v35jjhpr | depends, if it's from a folder yeah, but from panel menu it creates a link | 11:33 |
